on blueberry scones...
When life gets me down...I bake! Yesterday, helloo, pity party all the way. I'm known to get a little down in the dumps when I am feeling home sick. I miss Seattle. I miss my family and I miss my beloved friends. Distance is hard. And so baking up these delicious Blueberry Scones sure did brighten my day.
My co-worker made some of these lovely scones last weekend! I'm hooked. She found a neat little recipe over at a new favorite blog La Petite Brioche. Isn't the name of her blog the cutest thing in the world! If anything I just love the blog name but really there are so many wonderful baked goods to swoon over. I found myself going through every page and book marking things. I basically used this recipes and altered a few things. Let's get started.
2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon zest of orange
1/2 tablespoon zest of lemon
1 large egg
1 stick unsalted butter, cold & cubed
1/2 cup cold buttermilk
1 cup blueberries, frozen or fresh (i think frozen is easier to work with)
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Combine flour, baking soda, salt, zest of orange & lemon into your mixer that has the paddle mixer attachment. Mix those ingredients up until they are combined.
Next add the cold butter into the dry mixture. I just took a knife and cubed up the butter. Add the butter slowly while the mixer is on low. While the mixer is mixing that up get a bowl and combine the egg and buttermilk.
Once you whisk that together just slowing add it to the mixing bowl while it's on low. Mix it until blended. It's ok if the butter doesn't look like it is combining into the dough very well, it should have a rough texture to it.
Add blueberries in last. I find that taking the blueberries out of the freezer a few minutes before needing to add them is the best. This way the dough doesn't get too spongy from the blueberry juices that they let off. If you find that it does get too moist just set it into the freezer to firm it up a little (helpful little tip from Ashley, my co-worker). I used a spatula to add berries instead of the paddle mixer so it wouldn't crush them!
Time to cut triangles! Shape dough into square. Cut down and then across making four pieces and then again diagonally from corner to corner making TRIANGLES! Hurray.
Place them on a baking sheet and back them for about 25 minutes until the bottoms are slightly browned. You can brush on some heavy cream or in my case buttermilk and sprinkle raw sugar on top but I left that step out. No need for the sugar on top in my opinion! Trust me you will be loving the smells coming out of your kitchen. It's heavenly. My whole house was filled with the scent of blueberries :)
Serve while warm with a little butter on top and golly you will be going back for seconds! These are great with a cup of coffee for breakfast...I know, because that's what I had this morning. Teehee.

on a hint of mint iced tea...
Boy oh boy. The first week of Summer here brought a huge heat wave! I am crazy about iced tea during these hot summer months and I am always constantly making fresh batches of iced tea to keep in our fridge every week. It goes fast in my house! Lately though, I have been putting a fresh new spin on my iced tea at home and not only am I loving it but the husband approves too! Mint Iced Tea is heavenly, with adding the mint I feel like it's even that more refreshing to drink! All you will need is 1 cup of fresh mint, 6 tea bags, 6 cups of water and lemon. I hope you all enjoy it too...
1\\ Mint. It's the key ingredient in this and there is nothing better than going out to the garden and snipping off a few sprigs of mint!
2\\ boil 6 cups of water with 6 tea bags. Use whatever sort of tea that you fancy. We bought a huge bulk box of Lipton black tea at Samsclub a while back and I've been using that. Any sort of black tea will do. Sometimes I even mix black and green tea. Yumm! Once the water comes to a boil, let it boil with the tea bags for 5 minutes and then turn burner off.
3\\ next take 1 cup of chopped fresh mint and put it into the pot of tea and let it steep in there for about 10 minutes while it cools.
4\\ pour tea through a strainer to catch all the mint.
Fill a glass up with ice (or in my case a mason jar!) and pour the mint tea in, squeeze some lemon and garnish with mint! Now you can weather this heat and stay hydrated. Happy iced tea making!!
PS\\ Here's to my 400th post. Cheers :)

on summer book no.1...
Crossed off my first book on my summer reading list. Hurrah! The Little Coffee Shop of Kabul. Great read! I was hooked just by the tittle when I saw it sitting on the shelf in Target. It was a quick read and had such a wonderful story to it. It was all that I hoped for and wanted. Of course, I am connected to this book simply by the fact that it's about a little coffee shop, obviously in Kabul, Afghanistan.
Sunny who is originally from "Nowheresville, Arkansas" now calls Kabul home after traveling there with her boyfriend who is off on dangerous missions leaving Sunny to run her shop. Kabul is not an easy place to own your own business with all the bombings, guns everywhere and the Afghan culture to uphold but Sunny molds to all of these things and creates life in Kabul.
Sunny is a strong women who has not only built a cute, quirky coffee shop but has also brought traditions that create quite a buzz around town. She becomes linked to four different women whose lives and secrets are not only dangerous but make your heart seize up.
It's a fun read about family, friends and relationships. Although, this book doesn't go into great depth it does give a nice understanding of life in Kabul. It was also interesting finding out at the end of the book that the author actually lived in Kabul and owned her own hair salon and even though this book isn't a true story she says that the characters are ones that were inspired by real people in the time she spent in Kabul. True stuff and very neat!

on raviolis with creamy tomato sauce...
Raviolis are my favorite pasta. They are easy to cook up and serve and taste so fabulous with a good sauce. I tend to always have a package of raviolis in my freezer for making dinner. If Bobby is working late I will even boil up some raviolis for Sebastian and I and simply add some butter and sprinkle some Parmesan cheese right on top.
I really love making homemade sauce with bright red flavorful tomatoes, herbs & spices and a splash of cream to give it a nice texture. If I can add some cream to my red sauce I will, that creamy flavor goes great with any sort of stuffed ravioli. Also cream helps cut out some of the acidity the tomatoes give off, which my stomach is usually thrilled about. Here's how I made my sauce...
Chop up some onion and saute with one tablespoon of olive oil. Once it is starting to look translucent add the garlic to it and let it saute for another minute. Meanwhile, boil three large tomatoes. I used some nice ripe on the vine tomatoes. Once you see that the skin of the tomato rips slightly they should be perfect. Don't let them bust open though!
Next, toss the tomatoes, onion and garlic into your blender and puree until there are no chunks. This took no time in my blender! It should have a pasty texture.
Meanwhile, melt one tablespoon of butter in a pan and then pour the tomato mixture right into the pan. Cook on low. Now add your oregano, fresh basil, salt & pepper. Let it simmer for about 3 minutes.
While the sauce is on the stove simmering, take a small dish and mix together 1/4 cup whipping cream and 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese. The cheese and cream will create a thick mixture. Then go ahead and add the cream to the tomato and whisk it well. Make sure the heat is all the way low so the sauce doesn't burn or bubble over.
Boil up your chose of raviolis and you're set to go!
I added a little something extra to this dish! I had some flavorful chicken sausage stored in the freezer that I cut up and cooked to have with our raviolis. You can do without it, no worries.
I think this is a wonderful pasta dish for even the summer months. It takes no time so you're not heating up your kitchen in all this humidity going around. If you don't have a blender simply use a hand blender or food processor. Happy cooking!

on dad's day...
My day started out with cooking up some chocolate chip pancakes for my husband and wonderful dad. I even let the guys sleep in. Aren't I a sweetheart? He was a happy camper with a plate full of chocolate flapjacks.Other than spoiling all the dad's in our lives, today's theme was relaxation. My mother-in-law and I were tossing around different dinner ideas this past week. It was either crab cakes or portabella mushroom Parmesan. But of course my father-in-law came up with the best idea, let's just order pizza's! Me and mom more than welcomed the idea. What is this mother's day?!
We spent the day lounging in the pool and sipping on iced tea while the sun tans our pale bodies. It makes my heart skip a beat seeing Sebastian and Bobby play poolside. I am one lucky lady to have such a family oriented man in my life. Such a sweet and goofy dad!
(That's the father's day treatment right there!)
Annnd here's a shout out to my amazingly awesome papa bear who I miss dearly!

on my summer bucket list...
Summer has a tendency to fly by. I'm sure most of you can relate. What's up with that? I think it's always fun to think up a list of things you would like to do in the summer. Things that you've never done or just things that are simply perfect for the summer months ahead. It helps me with ideas when a day pops up here or there when nothing is planned and you are sitting at home trying to not let yourself say I'm bored (which by the way, I rarely ever do. It's the other two in my house that need keep with simulation!). I hope to keep this tradition not only as a list for myself but for my family or even a list that Sebastian can think up (when he gets a little older) that way there is always something that can be done and boredom doesn't set in. Good thinkin' huh?! Here is my summer list, a mixture of family things and a few of "me" things...
1\\ read, read & read some more.
I already shared my summer reading list and I hope to spend these months turning pages and being sucked into worlds unknown. I've seem many lovely book lists around the blogoshere and it's always excited to see what other people are planning on reading. I actually have added onto my list after seen some really great books on few blogs! Have you compiled a list for yourself yet?
2\\ pack a picnic and eat at the park.
This is something we don't do enough and I love picnics. It's something about being on a thick blanket on the grass eating a simple light lunch or dinner and enjoying the outdoors with each other. The mood is always pleasant and fun. I want to do this more often this summer and appreciate some new parks in our area!
3\\ make homemade popsicles & ice cream!
Yummm...Pinterst is blowing up with neat popsicle creations with colorful fruits and I've always wanted to make my own ice cream or frozen yogurt. I think it's looking like there might be an awesome ice cream party in the future?!
4\\ Dorney Park.
We have season passes to Dorney Park. My wonderful husband did some work on one of his friends cars and because he wouldn't except payment from his friend he in return gifted us with season passes to Dorney. Hurrah! Yesterday was one of those bogo days for us, we didn't have any plans at all and so last minute Friday we decided that we would head to the theme park for the day. It was a great day and Sebastian's first time there this season. Fun filled days at Dorney Park this summer is of course on the list!
5\\ camp out in the backyard & make s'mores.
I think Sebastian will get a kick out of this and it would a nice family activity to do. Snuggle in sleeping bags, roast hot dogs and make s'mores.
6\\ all day family hike.
Bobby and I hiked in Snoqualmie Falls the day after we got married and we loved it. I've sworn to hike more often after that! I want to pack a picnic and our backpacks and take Sebastian hiking. Adventure in the great outdoors and take lots of photos.
7\\ put some purple in my hair!
This is something I've wanted to do for a while. I would love to dye my whole head purple but because I probably wouldn't be able to really keep up with it, I am planning to put some cute peek-a-boo highlights of lavender. Something new & exciting and what I need in my life at this moment.
8\\ grow a veggie-licious garden.
I planted my garden and after giving some TLC I hope to have a very lush garden full of veggies. I have a strong desire of lots of tomatoes and because I have two different tomato plants I should get just that! With whatever tomatoes I don't end up eating I want to can for the winter months. Canned homemade red sauce at my disposal, I think so!
9\\ complete four D.I.Y projects-- two of those with Sebastian!
I have so many do-it-your-own projects that I've started and not finished. I am set on finishing them and showing you all.
10\\ go on a date to a drive-in movie.
Never been to a drive-in movie and summer would be a perfect time to cross this off my bucket list. Sweet date with my man, love it!
...and make every moment count!!!
What's on your summer bucket list?

on homemade ranch...
Now that I have an awesome herb garden with tons of yummy greens I made myself some homemade ranch! I saw a lovely recipe on one of my favorite blogs Baked Bree (if you haven't seen my interview with Bree check it out here). I am a serious ranch-a-holic. I'm admitting it to the entire world wide web! I love me some ranch. It's my all time favorite dressing on salads and I will even dip my pizza & grilled cheese into ranch. So there.
It was a super easy recipe and I was giddy as crazy as I was pouring it into a sweet little mason jar. Simple too! The two main ingredients are sour cream and buttermilk plus some little things like Worcestershire and not to forget our herb friend-- parsley, dill & chive. Check out the recipe and make some for yourself! Oh and seriously if you ever need some help in the kitchen just head over to Baked Bree because I know you will without a doubt find something that makes your mouth water.

on currently...
Reading\\ I finished Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter a few weeks ago and that was good. Curious as to how the movie is going to turn out. Just the other day I started my first book from my summer reading list The Little Coffee Shop in Kabul. I am loving it already. I'm enjoying the characters as well as understanding more about the culture and religions that are present in Afghanistan. Although I'm not one to be super interested in religion, the way this book touches on it and more so within the characters makes this to be a great read for me.
Watching\\Teen Wolf. I love this show! Since I don't have cable and that means no MTV my good friend Ashley (girl on the far left above) is a doll and actually records it and then lets me come over and watch with her :) Cue Kristen Wiig's voice as Annie in Bridesmaids-- help me I'm poor...But anyways, now that Vampire Diaries and Glee are no longer, I switch to Teen Wolf and True Blood. Love love love. The best part is when I meet someone via work or wherever and find out they like the shows that I watch. Oh golly. My voice gets all high pitched and the giggling happens. It's a mess.
Also went to see Snow White and the Huntsman with the girls above a few weekends ago. It was a great night and I give the movie a 4 out of 5. I fancied how dark and haunting the story was and yet it had that mystical forest in it to make it feel like a fairytale. For some reason I was expecting more of a love interest happen between Snow White (Kristen Stewart) and the Huntsman (Chris Hemsworth). For me that was a let down. Action was good and of course Charlize Theron was amazing. It's worth seeing in the movie theater!
Anticipating\\Sebastian's birthday day. This year he has really came to understand the significance of birthdays...presents!! Yep, that is of course what makes it special and let's not forget that soon I'll have myself a four year old! That's still crazy for me to say and even think about. These four years have gone unbelievably fast which is quite scary and also sad. I want to savor every waking moment with this little guy because soon he will want to be locked in his room listening to loud music instead of cuddling on the couch while watching Disney movies. Tear. Although sometimes I get weepy just seeing him get bigger and the digits going higher it's still just a glorious feeling knowing how much he has accomplished this past year and how much more he will in the next. Proud Momma right here!
Listening to\\ Lately these songs have been on repeat...
Random\\ so last Friday we went to Dorney Park which is an amusement park with half water rides and the other roller coasters. We got there around 11am and started on the water rides. On our last ride we chose to go on a tube water slide, it's were you sit on a inflated tube and ride down the slide. I didn't really think much of it but towards the end of the slide it got really steep. Now, since I was going like a million mile per hour I flew up into the air as I hit the top of the steep part and my eye glasses slipped off my face and were literally floating in midair. No joke. I had two options. One, take my hand off the tubes handle and grab my now hovering glasses and risk flying off the tube myself (since I was going so fast) or just let them fall to their doom. I chose to save my glasses. So to speak...because as I took my hand off the handle and went to quickly grab my glasses I heard a crunccchh. I got to the bottom safe and sound but I can't say the same for my glasses. I crushed them with my bare hands. Talk about a Hulk moment. I cracked the framed right in half. This happened some time in the afternoon so the rest of the day I was walking around the park basically blind. I held onto Bobby's hand for dear life making sure I didn't loose him in the crowds. I laughed and the day was in no way ruined. And don't worry I have a older pair that I am currently using but now this gives me an excuse to get my butt out to buy myself a brand new pair of frames or two!
Eating\\ salads. Fresh green salads with lots of yummy veggies! That's all I've even wanted to eat lately especially with this humid heat. I can hardly ever eat heavy dishes in the summer. Bobby feels the same way so we've been putting off making dinners and just putting together different sorts of salads. Monday night we made chicken taco salads. So yummy!

on my summer reading...
Summer is always the time to get some reading done. I read tons year-round but it's something about Summer that really motivates me to read as many novels as I possibly can! I've got a pretty good list going here this year and I'm sure I'll be carrying into Fall.
Reading has always been a passion of mine, since I was a young adult. I was always one to crawl into bed early just so I could lay back and flip some pages of my book. Growing up my favorite series was Harry Potter. I was totally a sucker for them and still am! I hope Sebastian will become an avid reader like myself. Books are really such lovely things to help ease your mind. I know when I have a tough day reading is one of the number one things I do to relax and to have the capability to just jump into another world or reality for a little bit, well, we all need that in one way or another. Happy Reading!
(all photos & descriptions from Amazon)
Shadow of Night by Deborah Harkness. I bet a lot of you are looking forward to this one! The second book to A Discovery of Witches. If you haven't read it, what are you waiting for? So good! I without a doubt love my witches, vampires and demon books but I truly think these books are great for people who don't normally read that genre. This baby comes out July 10th. Mark your calendar.
Game of Thrones by George Martin. This is on my list for two reasons; one because I want to read it and second because I want to watch the show on HBO. Most books that are made into shows or movies have to be read before I watch them. It's like a rule for me. If I watch the show or movie first then I won't read the book. Usually. For example, I never read all the Vampire Diaries books until after I already started the show. I read the first book and stopped. It was horrible and the show is hands down waaaayy better. So there.
Divergent by Veronica Roth. Okay, people are saying that if you like The Hunger Games that you will like this. I will give it a try. It's a trilogy and the second book is called Insurgent. I'll let you know!
Gabriel's Inferno by Sylvain Reynard. Obviously by the cover you can pretty much guess as to what sort of book this is going to be :) Not going to lie when I say that I am a member of a Fifty Shades of Grey group on FaceBook and all the women on it are raving about this series. There's two books, this one and one called Gabriel's Rapture and they say it's the closest to Fifty Shades than anything out there and it's GOOD. I need to see what all the hype is about!
The Violets of March by Sarah Jio. This book has great reviews and most of all it's set in Washington State which is always a something that grabs my attention in the first place. It's about Emily who in her twenties who has a perfect husband and a perfect life but after 10 years things flip upside down. She ends up going to hang out with her Aunt in Bainbridge Island! Just reading the description of the book I already like Emily as a character.
The Little Coffee Shop of Kabul by Deborah Robriguez. Story about a person who owns a little coffee shop and her meeting people that influence her life. Um hello, story of my life. Enough said.
Bloodlines by Richelle Mead. You know I had to toss a vampire novel into this mix. I've read Richelle's Vampire Academy series which was two thumbs up. This book looks similar to those so I hope to enjoy it.
Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn. This guy is on the top seller list everywhere. Here's a little description off of Amazon...
On a warm summer morning in North Carthage, Missouri, it is Nick and Amy Dunne's fifth wedding anniversary. Presents are being wrapped and reservations are being made when Nick's clever and beautiful wife disappears from their rented McMansion on the Mississippi River. Husband-of-the-Year Nick isn't doing himself any favors with cringe-worthy daydreams about the slope and shape of his wife's head, but passages from Amy's diary reveal the alpha-girl perfectionist could have put anyone dangerously on edge. Under mounting pressure from the police and the media—as well as Amy's fiercely doting parents—the town golden boy parades an endless series of lies, deceits, and inappropriate behavior. Nick is oddly evasive, and he's definitely bitter—but is he really a killer?
Last but not least, Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail by Cheryl Strayed. This is in Oprah's new Book Club 2.0. Sounds like an amazing story about a women who is on the brink of losing everything and sets out onto the Pacific Crest Trial that goes from Mojave Desert through California & Oregon to Washington with no experience. This book reminds me of Eat, Pray, Love. Where a women that goes on an adventure to escape life and journeys to a new one through struggle and self realization. I really love reading memoirs like this, it's very inspiring to ones soul.
Well, I hope maybe at least one of these books caught your eye. If you have any recommendation for me don't hesitate to post them in my comments :)

Managing your real estate investment
You get the cash flow. We get the work.
Your investment in real estate is a business like any other. As a landlord, you have expenses, income and with perseverance, you also have the expectation of financial reward.
In the business of real estate investment, nearly all cashflow comes from tenants. And that's the catch: If you have tenants, you will have problems. Even the best of tenants have needs and all properties will require maintenance or management at some point. A property management company takes all the hassle out of rental management.
About Renters
A good renter will respect your property and pay timely rent. A bad renter can damage or destroy your property. The worst of all renters damages your property and does not pay any rent at all. Life's too short to deal with bad renters.
More about Tenant Management
At Nesbitt Realty, we'll find the best quality renter for your property. We carefully screen tenants to give the highest possible chance for success. Once the tenant is in place we fairly enforce the terms of the lease so that the tenant knows our expectations.
Once the property is leased, we'll do the administration and handle the details of managing the property. We'll maintain your good name and foster good relations between you and the tenant, but we will set clear boundaries so that your renter understands his rights and duties as a tenant.

Cry Freedom (1987)
Directed by: Richard Attenborough

text: Hunting Semi Auto Shotguns Benelli Super Black Eagle 3 Skip Knowles May 12th, 2017 | More From Skip Knowles Share0 Tweet Email Share on Facebook.Share on Twitter.Share on Google+ The propellers throbbed as PenAir's plane circled and then landed us on Cold Bay's giant emergency runway. We were just three hours west of Anchorage in the heart of the Aleutian archipelago, but it remains one of the harshest places in Alaska. Sunny and calm, the skies were blue, and my fellow hunters were jovial. We couldn't have imagined the storms that would greet us 12 hours later the next morning. This is the place where North Pacific gales travel to the Bering Sea carrying the waters featured on Discovery Channel's "Deadliest Catch." The land is raw with burning-cold winds and steaming volcanoes that puff and throw red magma. It's a good place for something to be born — or reborn. It made perfect sense why Benelli chose this location to launch the rebirth of their archetype: the Super Black Eagle. Winds gusted to 70 mph and howled straight off the ocean during the pre-dawn hours. Rain and slush flew sideways, and the storm surf pounded as we awoke at "sunrise," roughly 9:30 a.m. We'd have to wait for the winds to calm because no ducks fly in that kind of weather. But that's not the way of Captain Jeff Wasley. The lodge door burst open, and Wasley blew in with a gust and just stood there, already soaked, and murmured, "Twenty minutes and we roll out!" The mild-mannered bearded sea captain, who is also a biologist, started Four Flyways Outfitters (fourflywaysoutfitters.com) for his great love of ducks and hunting, and he remains at the top of the world. During five days of hunting, my group broke an outboard motor far offshore and stalled a jacked-up Suburban up to the windows in the middle of a gushing river — but we couldn't break these guns. Benelli's Super Black Eagle (SBE) landed in 1991 and quickly rose to prominence as the duck man's broadsword. The gun set a new standard as one of the first semiautomatics to handle 2¾-, 3- and 3½-inch shells, when the longer shells were developed to help offset the inferior downrange lethality of steel pellets once lead shot was banned in most areas. Twenty-six years ago, nobody had seen anything quite like the SBE when it came out. Most of the weight is in the receiver where the inertia-driven operating system is housed, giving the shotgun an overall slenderness and lovely between-the-hands balance. The SBE quickly became a waterfowling status symbol, helping a young company that started building guns in 1967 carve out a niche in a field dominated by centuries-old brands like Browning, Beretta, Remington and Winchester. Third Generation The Super Black Eagle 3 (SBE3) is new for 2017, yet it has the same core as the original: That simple inertia-driven system built around a powerful compact spring housed within the bolt. It is the "engine" for the shotgun's recoil operation. Like the old saying, "If it ain't broke …," said George Thompson, Benelli senior product manager. During G&A's exclusive evaluation in Alaska, the new SBE3 was still internally code named "Retriever," and it was easy to identify a dozen new design and ergonomic touches. These are aimed at lighter weight, better handling, shooter comfort and, above all, less recoil. It is a refined version of the original: softer-kicking, user-friendly and pure Italian, with stylish new accents on the receiver by Marco Vignaroli, which were borrowed from the recently launched Benelli Ethos. The accent lines represent the silhouette of a bird in flight and complement the black model without being garish. The SBE3 will also be available in Realtree Max-5 and Optifade Timber camouflage field patterns. Another critical addition for the SBE3 was also lifted from Benelli's Ethos: The easy locking detent in the bolt assembly, which assures the rotating face always seats even when the gun is extremely dirty or bumped on the buttstock. (This was a complaint on prior models.) Other major tweaks include an improved ComforTech stock (now in its third generation) to redirect recoil. This time, there's a larger and softer cheekpad. That's a lot of emphasis on comfort for the tough hunters. And nobody is nastier to their guns than waterfowlers. In Alaska, we threw them into aluminum boats that pounded through waves, exposed them to marine spray, let them bang around with the decoys, get stepped on by muddy dogs and tossed them on the beach between sessions. Of course, we also shot hundreds of high-velocity, heavy duck loads through them all in near-freezing conditions. The climate was so harsh that choke tubes rusted by day two. We were too cold to care. Weather Permitting On that first morning of hurricane-force winds, we expected Wasley to step forward and explain what we would do when the weather died. But you don't work around the weather in Cold Bay, Alaska; you just try to survive it. The Cold Bay experience is one of pristine wilderness and a bucket-list adventure for trophy species in wild spaces for hardcore waterfowlers. It's called "wilderness" for a reason. We piled out of the trucks that first dawn, unsure of our new waders, and fought to close the doors in the wind. Most of us tromped down to a nearby lake shore — the ocean was out of the question with the giant surf — and hid not far from the road to hunt. A larger and more accessible triggerguard design and safety layout make using them easier on the waterfowler. I mentioned that I wanted a rare Eurasian teal or wigeon the night prior, and that earned me a death hike. Wasley lined a few of us out on a cross-country jaunt in the torrent, dropping off two others at the halfway point. Hoofing around, my guide, Mark Vander Zanden, often opted to wade over greasy boulders, and I had to use the buttstock of the new gun to catch myself a few times on the slick rocks, submerging it violently past the trigger group like a wading staff. Three times wind gusts grabbed the large, metal-framed pack full of decoys and nearly drove me into the lake. I quickly learned to walk bent over. It was strange to see winds lift the surface waters skyward off a lake and vaporize them in a reverse rainstorm. The tundra, too, was difficult hiking, similar to jogging in a ditch full of sponges, until you hit a trail. The Gen 3 ComforTec stock is new and enhanced for the SBE3. It is enlarged with a softened cheekpiece. But here's a concern: These nice trails were created by 1,000-pound brown bears, just as heavy-bodied as the famed Kodiak monsters. I stumbled along for an hour behind Vander Zanden, and as we strolled past hundreds of half-eaten sockeye and piles of brown bear scat, it was comforting to know that I was carrying a reliable 12 gauge with 3½-inch, 15⁄8-ounce HEVI-Shot loads should the "Man in the Brown Suit" show up. One stroke of the bolt handle and I'd be ready to defend us. We finally struck a tiny bay, hunkered under a hummock and threw out a few decoys. The fun started instantly when a pair of stunning drake goldeneyes buzzed through. The first was too fast, but he left his wingman bobbing in the decoys with a stroke of 3-inch HEVI Metal #2s. A matching drake bufflehead appeared next, and a clean double on those beauties was followed by some of the biggest mallards on earth splashing feet up. Strangely, all the birds were glowing, fully plumed drakes from the far north; three are now headed for the taxidermist. Even while wearing layers of Arctic-worthy Sitka gear, the SBE3 proved easy to shoot. A new detent system borrowed from the Benelli Ethos ensures that the rotating bolt face locks up and engages securely without a nudge forward from a helping hand. The enlarged extractor/bolt handle also proved to be a plus for ease of use with gloved hands. Benelli's inertia-operating system is entirely housed within this bolt carrier group. Case in point: As we were hiking out, fighting the wind with five heavy ducks bouncing on the strap against my chest and a loaded pack on my back, we somehow heard the rush of wings and turned as a super-sized mallard burst from the reeds 15 feet below the ledge we were trudging along. In a flash, I had the gun up and, despite the ducks around my neck, managed to rip back the bolt handle. I turned and crushed a greenhead with one shot from 40 yards. Mallards in Alaska are massive — over 4 pounds — because most do not migrate, and they gorge on salmon eggs and carcasses. Vander Zanden was delighted at the shot, though we had to wait a good bit for the wind to bring the bird ashore. Enlarged & Lighter You can't say much more than that about a shotgun's handling. The new oversized bolt handle on the SBE3 was welcome every time I'd needed to chamber a round, and the new grip and trigger design were useful even with soaking thick gloves in a critical split-second shot. The safety is enlarged as well. A new deeper pistol grip allows better access to the trigger and safety and improved control with less felt recoil. The rounded triggerguard is forgiving, and the pistol grip is deeper, allowing for more control and better trigger access. A deeper pistol grip reduces recoil by letting us move into the gun and giving more grip control, which helps to eliminate the "punch." A deep grip also allows us to use our push-up muscles against recoil, as our chest is much stronger than our wrists and thumbs. The fumbling cold and slippery wet climate was the ideal test for all the accoutrements added to the new SBE3, such as the newly slenderized and enhanced forearm and especially the new enlarged loading port with big grooves in front of the new triggerguard for smooth feeding. A redesigned carrier/lifter also helped the fast action of this shotgun. It was a grueling 5-mile hike in the unrelenting wind over the squishy moss, but the gun is long and a pleasure to carry. It's lighter than the SBEII, right at 7 pounds. I was grateful for the power in its chamber (bears), but also the lack of bulk and heft. "The engineers handed us the new gun and said they could have made it almost a pound lighter, and wanted to, but I told them no," said Thompson. "Lighter isn't always ideal in a 12 gauge firing waterfowl loads." A host of shotgunners made short work of Alaska's prized black brant with the new SB3, a testimony to its handling and reliability in a harsh marine environment. During the following weeks, back home on the range, I threw my entire stash into the shotgun, feeding it everything from rusty old Black Cloud loads to new 3½-inch high-velocity B&P 1½-ounce #2s. Buckshot, Hevi-Shot, slugs, 1-ounce dove loads … the SBE3 ate them all. Even the cool Hog Wild two-ball loads from Hevi. I got it to jam once by firing corroded old shells much faster than you ever would afield. There was a measured evenness in shot patterns due to the proven cryogenically treated steel barrel. I fired several other quality semiautomatics and could detect no difference in recoil with the gas guns. As a shotgunner, it's pretty cool to feed a wild mix of loads and shell lengths and see it spit them all out. Tungsten, lead, steel — it didn't matter. The SBE3's new two-part elastic carrier latch worked as billed for easier loading into the magazine. In Alaska, we fed the SBE3 whatever shells we could grab on the frantic hunts for those stunning saltwater geese, the Pacific black brant, which was the highlight of the Cold Bay trip. Brant from three flyways converge on the giant Izembek Lagoon to gorge on eelgrass before migration, the highest concentration of the birds in the world. The Italians build nothing without some grace and beauty in mind. Interestingly, the lines on the SBE3's receiver were inspired by a mallard in flight. Jumping in the layout boats 20 feet apart in the wind and waves, Jeff Puckett and I barely settled in when gobs of the geese came in low and straight. I doubled right away and, with only one bird left for a limit, laid the Benelli down and focused on calling for Puckett, who quickly caught up. A single came high and right, then centered up the middle as I called. He was right in my wheelhouse, but I waited to see if he would skid right, in which case I would shoot him. If he went left, he was Puckett's. At 20, he lifted left, and I yelled, "Shoot him, Jeff!" into the wind. Puckett popped up and missed, then cracked him hard. The retrieve boat yelled out, "Double-banded!" when picking up the bird, and we shouted with joy. Puckett scored the bird-hunting trophy of a lifetime. For three days, the brant hunting held just as strong, with so much action that we rotated through the layout boats, and even the guides took turns. The magazine cap has been triangulated to provide the user with an edge to apply pressure on at any turn. We started calling ourselves the Hecklers, because there was always a half-dozen guys on the beach, watching the layouts just offshore, helping call in birds and cheering the shooters' hits and misses. It was like a dream come true for brant fanatics. Each day I'd bang out two birds within five minutes, then I'd have to calm down, enjoy the hunt and wait on a third. The fact that everyone pounded out limits of these saltwater geese and nobody had trouble using an unfamiliar gun speaks volumes about the design. In front of the triggerguard, a new scallop design guides shells to the carrier for improved feed control into the SBE3 magazine. Despite the lack of local crab legs from these famous waters, the hunt was a pure Alaskan experience. Eagles kept stealing our birds, but the brant made up for it. When Wasley grilled those breasts, we all wondered how brant are not extinct. It was some of the best wild game we'd ever eaten, on par with elk tenderloin. Brant die easily but are not sea ducks. On the last day, we were running the heaviest shot loads available through the SBE3, trying to kill the biggest duck in North America, the ghost-like Pacific eider. It was tough hunting for the toughest birds to kill, and few came close to limits, but we all took home birds for the wall. Reduced recoil and the lack of muzzle rise while shooting heavy, magnum loads afforded control for fast follow-up shots. On the bigger body of water in the bouncing layouts, we discovered these zipping sea ducks were also some of the hardest birds to hit. The water was rough enough that I missed twice trying to finish off a cripple on the water and laughed aloud — I'd missed a sitting duck! It was humbling, especially after making hero shots from Canada to Louisiana all season. I made up for it by doubling on drake harlequin, one of the prettiest birds on earth, killing both and managing to miss the one hen flying with them. To clean after a day in the field, this third-generation Super Black Eagle easily disassembles/reassembles in the familiar manner. The Proving Grounds A truly rare feat, outdoorsman Jeff Puckett used the SBE3 to bring down a double-banded brant. Climate and saltwater aside, a layout boat is a perfect test because it is a lousy place from which to shoot. Sitting in what is essentially a super-low kayak, you shoot from some of the most awkward positions possible. You can't shoot far to the right or to the left and very little straight up, and the whole vessel is moving in the waves. The guns had a few mild hiccups in Alaska's extreme conditions due to the difficulty of finding a consistent shoulder mount in bobbing layout boats amid the waves and the fact that we were shooting prototypes. The scenery of Cold Bay, Alaska, exceeds imagination. The wetlands are home to Pacific black brant, Canada geese and ducks. Lighter than its predecessor, the SBE3 should kick harder, but the test group of hunters generally agreed it was the softest-kicking Super Black Eagle to date, and the trademark system of rubber chevrons in the redesigned third generation ComforTech stock seemed to reduce muzzle lift and combine with the super-soft, oversized cheekpiece (which houses its own flexible shim) to soften the feel of shooting. That cheekpiece feels odd to touch — big and soft like the tundra — but it is the most noticeable and effective recoil-reducing aspect. The shotgun can't punch you in the face if you pull up a hasty mount and lack a good cheekweld, which is normally where you pay. The new SBE3 also comes with a slick new case, more compact than earlier models, and boasts a new triangular ergonomic mag cap. The Super Black Eagle series was already a wingshooter's dream, and the new SBE3 appears to protect that legacy. Hunting Alaska's waterfowl might have you shooting on land or over water. When civilization is more than 400 miles away, your equipment has to run reliably. The SBE3 did just that. relatedBenelli SBE II 25th Ann.

Callable Bonds
When the bond reaches maturity, it is time for the issuing company to repay the principal to whoever holds the bond at the time. This is also called redemption. The issuing company may have the option to redeem a bond early. Such securities are referred to as callable bonds.
Callable bonds are those bonds whereby the company has the right to buy back the bonds before maturity at a set or "call" price. In other words, callable bonds allow the issuing company to buy back the bonds before the stated maturity date. The issuer might want to do this to take advantage of lower market interest rates, which would allow for the issuance of new bonds to match those lower rates. In other words, the company could now make lower annual payments on its bonds.
Callable Bonds Example: Journal Entry in the General Journal
Hair Company is planning to expand its facilities by constructing a new building, and installing new machines. In order to complete this project, the company has decided to issue $2,000,000 worth of 20 year 4% callable bonds. On April 1, the company completed all the necessary paperwork, and is now ready to issue the bonds. Fortunately, just as Hair Company was issuing its bonds, the current market rate dropped to 3.5%. Their financial advisor recommended issuing the bonds at a premium of
How to record the journal entry for the issuance of bonds on April 1, year 1?
Premium bond price = 2,000,000 + 142,124 = 2,142,124

You all know my desire and passion to get all of us in the Word every single day. What better way to use my space here on the Internet than to fill it with Scripture.
Every single day, I will have a new scripture on the blog, sometimes with thoughts about it, sometimes with questions for you to ponder, and maybe sometimes just the scripture itself. But no matter what, I am vowing to publish Truth each day so no matter who comes to this space, can find a treasure. There are no greater words to read than God's very own words.
So while I will still be publishing my usual blog posts and podcasts, I will also have a scripture each day right here on the blog. I pray this blesses you and encourages us all to get in the Word each day. I also hope the scripture I share here is NOT a substitute for sitting down and opening the Bible yourself…but perhaps a reminder, an encouragement, or a starting point. Ultimately, there is no substitute for getting into His Word each day.
Let's all vow to be seekers of Truth! Let's start simply…seeking Him.
See all the posts here
Philemon 4-7
I always thank my God as I remember you in my prayers, 5 because I hear about your love for all his holy people and your faith in the Lord Jesus. 6 I pray that your partnership with us in the faith may be effective in deepening your understanding of every good thing we share for the sake of Christ. 7 Your love has given me great joy and encouragement, because you, brother, have refreshed the hearts of the Lord's people.

On February 15, 2017, in U.S. ex rel. Ruckh v. Genoa Healthcare, LLC, a case in which both the United States and the state of Florida declined to intervene, the jury returned a verdict finding that the operators of 53 skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) had committed FCA violations resulting in more than $115 million in damages. The FCA violations resulted from the submission of false claims to Medicare and Medicaid stemming from the inflation and upcoding of Resource Utility Group (RUG) levels for patients and false certifications that the SNFs had created timely and adequate patient care plans. The jury's verdict represented only actual damages. On March 1, 2017, the district court assessed a statutory penalty of $5,500 per claim to 446 false claims and trebled the jury's damages number, the result being a staggering judgment of almost $348 million. This dwarfs even the largest of the long-term care settlements that have preceded it.

Last September Aaron Bastani sat down with the world's leading expert on Karl Marx; David Harvey. They discussed the relevance of Marx today, productivity, China and so much more. Enjoy.
In all honesty Britain's economy is absolutely broken, ten years ago it was common to hear of a lost decade for Japan and Italy, well the same has just happened to Britain on the things that matter like wages and productivity while the deficit, the one thing the Tories wanted to be measured by, is […]
The British media recently castigated John McDonnell for admitting he had read Karl Marx. But there's just one problem with that – he's never been more relevant.
Today Labour's draft election manifesto was leaked. Many policies in it, from eliminating tuition fees to building new social housing, will be paid through increasing tax on high income earners and the profits of large corporations. Higher tax in these areas wouldn't make Britain the exception, it would make it normal.
From Britain's media, to its economy and politics – the system is rigged.

PTEN Protein Loss and Clinical Outcome from Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer Treated with Abiraterone Acetate06/10/2015
Comment from Henk van der Poel:
PTEN loss predicted shorter survival upon abiraterone treatment after progression on docetaxel in men with CRPC. Whether these men are better off with cabazitaxel rather than abiraterone remains to be established. Interestingly, PTEN loss was more frequent in histology from metastases as compared to the primary tumor while PTEN status did not change during progression from androgen responsive to CRPC disease. These data suggest that PTEN loss develops early in disease progression and may therefore be helpful to address the question of timing and sequencing of chemotherapy versus (secondary) androgen ablation.
Bone-related Parameters are the Main Prognostic Factors for Overall Survival in Men with Bone Metastases from Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer06/10/2015
Comment from Henk van der Poel:
Survival of men with bone-metastasized prostate cancer can best be predicted using 7 bone related parameters.
Focal Ablation Targeted to the Index Lesion in Multifocal Localised Prostate Cancer: a Prospective Development Study06/10/2015Comment from Henk van der Poel: Focal treatment in 56 men showed preservation of urinary continence in over 90%, and erectile function preservation in over 70%. After one year, 81% of men had no significant cancer. Longer follow up is needed to validate the concept of index lesion treatment.
A Genomic Classifier Improves Prediction of Metastatic Disease Within 5 Years After Surgery in Node-negative High-risk Prostate Cancer Patients Managed by Radical Prostatectomy Without Adjuvant Therapy06/10/2015Comment from Henk van der Poel: Decipher, a 22-gene set helps to select patients for adjuvant therapy after prostatectomy. We are looking forward to comparisons with the cell cycle progression score (Prolaris).
Prevention of Bone Metastases in Patients with High-risk Nonmetastatic Prostate Cancer Treated with Zoledronic Acid: Efficacy and Safety Results of the Zometa European Study (ZEUS)06/10/2015Comment from Henk van der Poel: Earlier studies have suggested that bisphosphonates could prevent cancer cell anchoring in bone. In this randomized trial, zoledronic acid every 3 months did not reduce the risk of bone metastases development in men with localized high risk prostate cancer after 4 years.
The Influence of Prior Abiraterone Treatment on the Clinical Activity of Docetaxel in Men with Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer05/27/2015Comment from Henk van der Poel: A timely question: second line androgen ablation of chemotherapy in CRPC? Schweizer et al. found reduced PSA responses in men receiving docetaxel after abiraterone versus men that had not received abiraterone. Men in the abiraterone group were more likely to have lung but not liver metastases. In a multivariate analysis abiraterone was the only predictor of PFS prediction. An interesting observation in a small population. It would be of interest to similarly compare response to abiraterone in men that did receive prior docetaxel and those that did not did not.

In this bone marrow aspirate analysis at time of prostatectomy, 19% of men were shown to harbor cytokeratin positive cells in the aspirate. The presence of these cell was not correlated with pT, nodal stage or biochemical recurrence at 5 years.

All men later progressed but 10 of 10 has a PSA decline after reinitiation of androgenablation. Interesting observation, but a survival benefits still needs to be demonstrated.
Relationships Between Times to Testosterone and Prostate-Specific Antigen Rises During the First Off-Treatment Interval of Intermittent Androgen Deprivation are Prognostic for Castration Resistance in Men With Nonmetastatic Prostate Cancer05/14/2015Comment from Henk van der Poel: Delayed PSA recovery in the first off-treatment phase of intermittent ADT predicts a delayed development of CRPC in men with non-metastasized disease. Interestingly, this observation was independent of testosterone-recovery. Thus, a rapid PSA decline (earlier data) and a slow PSA recovery during intermittent androgen ablation both predict prolonged response to androgen ablation.

talk to their providers and get the best deal
Miami, FL (PRWEB) February 17, 2017
National Debt Relief recently shared in an article published February 3, 2017 some valuable and useful tips people can use to manage their finances. The article titled "5 Tips for Managing Your Finances When You're Flat Broke" stresses the fact that these tips can be of most help when consumers are already having a hard time making ends meet.
The article starts off by pointing out that not having enough funds to cover monthly bills is a sad reality for a lot of people. These are the ones that jump from one paycheck to another without much leeway in their expenses. They are usually left with little to almost none in their account. This is a clear sign that these people need to manage their finances better.
The article shares that one of the things people can do is to try and change the due dates on their bills. The reason for this is to schedule the payments at a time that their pay corresponded with the bills. This lowered the chances of using up their money for some other impulse purchase rather than meeting their financial obligations.
Another thing consumers can do to help them budget their finances better is to talk to their providers and get the best deal. It is highly unlikely that these providers would be the ones to initiate the call to consumers to give them discounts. Consumers has to be the one to reach out and call their providers to seek better rates. This can prove useful in lowering down bill payments every month.
The article also shares that it is a good idea to have reserve funds to cover any unforeseen emergencies. The challenge however for most people is having to save up anywhere from three to six month's worth of living expenses. The article explains that consumers can start looking at just saving up for one month to begin with. This can already be a big help and can usually offset small emergencies that would otherwise be covered only by taking out additional debt.

The average Major League Baseball salary has eclipsed the $4 million mark, according to the annual study conducted by the Associated Press.
Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw tops all players with a $31 million salary for 2015. Detroit's Justin Verlander and fellow Dodgers starter Zack Greinke follow behind last year's National League Cy Young Award winner. Josh Hamilton of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim leads all position players with a 2015 check of $25.4 million.
Neither Babe Ruth, nor Joe DiMaggio, nor Mickey Mantle ever made more than $100,000 in a season.
For the second year in a row, the Dodgers lead the majors in payroll. They divvy out $270 million this season. The Yankees and Red Sox follow far behind, with the Miami Marlins spending the least at $65 million. The Yankees reigned in payroll since the late 1990s until LA's recent spending spree.
The Yankees and Red Sox missed the playoffs last season, and the Dodgers crashed hard in the postseason. The Kansas City Royals and Baltimore Orioles played among a group of smaller-market teams that fared well in 2014. The San Francisco Giants, who ultimately triumphed over the Royals in the World Series, rank fifth in payroll this season despite losing Pablo Sandoval and Mike Morse to free agency.
The average salary reached $1 million in 1992, $2 million in 2001, and $3 million in 2008.

Get A First-Class Criminal Defense Lawyer To Represent You
At that initial consultation, there are many questions you need to ask. This is because such lawyers do what they do with pride and in the finest way they're able to. This could add additional cost to an already costly experience.
May be we or our dear ones have to take the assistance of criminal defense lawyer at some stage of life. Criminal lawyers are basically hired for dealing with the cases of the offenders found guilty of criminal charges. Criminal charges basically include murders, robberies, drugs, etc.
It is important to remember that criminal law is complicated. You need to find a lawyer who will be able to help you in this situation. If you think that you will be able to deal with legal assistance, you are mistaking. There is no way of getting around this without expert's assistance.
Punctual: An attorney must show up on time in the courtroom, file all paperwork on time and not ever keep a judge waiting. If a person is lackadaisical, laid back, and often tardy, he or she won't be able to do the job very well.
You should be ready to answer questions such as how long have you been a criminal defense attorney, how many cases have you won, do you go to trial often or decide to settle this matter out of court and so on. How you answer will help them decide if they want to hire you or not.
Success is of obvious importance. The goal for your friend is to either be set free or have a lesser sentence than what might normally be the case. You will want to do some research in this area as well as some of the other areas because it is important to know the reputation of the individual. Looking at online reviews can be helpful for this.
When to Find An criminal defense lawyer? When you are arrested that time a lawyer will help you got to be out on bail. After you are released, you should go for an expert Austin criminal defe

The Paul Walker Jokes That Were in Bieber's TV Roast Are No More
Comedy Central decided the quips crossed a line.
Although celebrity roasts are never recommended for the politically correct or the faint of heart, The Hollywood Reporter writes that Comedy Central will omit the Paul Walker jokes that were made last weekend at Justin Bieber's no-holds-barred roast because they were too insensitive. During the live taping of the special, which airs March 30, there were a handful of awkward jokes cracked about Pete Davidson's late father, as well as the late Fast and Furious star. Jokes about both fallen figures didn't land very well, but it seemed that the Walker jokes (like when comedian Jeff Ross said, "'Move bitch, get out the way!' is what Paul Walker should've told that tree," or when Davidson said, "Justin got arrested for drag racing ... unfortunately, it wasn't with Paul Walker") especially rubbed attendees the wrong way.
"Roasts often push the limits of good taste and we give the participants full rein to try things knowing we have the edit to shape the show," a network spokesperson told the magazine. "Sometimes the line is discovered by crossing it. The Paul Walker references will not be in the telecast." Seeing as Ludacris was reportedly pissed, it looks like Comedy Central is smartly trying to avoid another Steve-O–Ryan Dunn–Amy Schumer moment.

Bridget "Brede" Connolly was one of the many women who took part in Ireland's Easter Rising of 1916. She navigated through the streets of Dublin ferrying communications between James Connolly in the General Post Office and Ned Daly, in Church Street. Brede didn't have that far to go as the crow flies but she had to make it through some of the fiercest fighting of the insurrection to deliver these messages and she did it time and time again.
Tag Archives: female prisoners
Lily O'Brennan
On this day sixty-nine years ago, Ireland said goodbye to one of its fierce daughters. Elizabeth "Lily" O'Brennan was one of three revolutionary sisters in the O'Brennan clan, and was a true believer in the cause of Irish freedom. She fought for it even when it cost her her own.
Skinnider's Near Death Experience
Margaret Skinnider described the Easter Rising like this. "Every shot we fired was a declaration to the world that Ireland, a small country but large in our hearts, was demanding her independence." Her words might not have had the same certainty and grand bravado if she had been writing while the bullets were flying…but then again, I am quoting Margaret Skinnider so maybe they would have. That utter devotion to Ireland nearly did her in on this day in 1916.
Giuseppe Conlon
There are many questionable convictions and murky instances of enhanced interrogation techniques throughout British and Irish history. Few are better known than those of the Guildford Four and the Maguire Seven. Many members of these groups have written books and papers regarding their long imprisonment for crimes they never committed and the Hollywood film "In the Name of the Father" was based on their plight. Today marks the death of that innocent and determined father, Giuseppe Conlon.
Dorothy Macardle, historian and propagandrix
On this day in 1958, Ireland lost a powerful (albeit slanted) voice. Dorothy Macardle was best known for her book "The Irish Republic" which was commissioned by her idol and friend Eamon De Valera. Her blind faith in his political party and leadership is apparent throughout her history book but so are the echoes of a rebel suffragist and her whispers of dissatisfaction when it came to women's rights. Dorothy Macardle may have been a vocal member of Dev's faithful flock, but that's not to say she was entirely happy with all of his policies.
Irish Women's Franchise League
Ireland has always had more than its fair share of feisty women. By 1908 there were already numerous Suffragist groups in Ireland, full of women who wanted equality, the ability to vote, and more freedoms. Many of these groups focused on petitions, publicity, and spreading their message through polite channels and discourse, and they attracted many prominent socialites who used their influence to further the cause. This was not good enough for Hanna Sheehy Skeffington, her husband Francis, and their radical friends. 108 years ago today, they founded the Irish Women's Franchise League, a group dedicated to equal rights that used agitation and action to spread their message.
The struggle for equality
Women have been fighting for equality and recognition for centuries. In Irish history, women have always been seen as supporting cast members, fundraisers, nurses, etc. and safely put in the appropriate roles for their gender, whether they could do more or not. This has been the case for years and years and only now is that idea starting to be debunked by historians…but the historians devoting themselves to elevating the roles of women are mostly female. Myself included. Continue reading

Alkylated DNA base damage, one of the most common cytotoxic and mutagenic DNA lesions, is classically repaired by lesion-specific DNA glycosylases, which excise alkylated bases to create abasic sites and initiate the base-excision repair (BER) pathway. DNA alkylation repair is critical for genome stability and furthermore a major resistance factor for cancer chemotherapies, so the other less studied but biologically key alkylation repair pathways merit characterization. This proposal thus focuses upon important non-glycosylase pathways, whereby alkylation damage is removed by direct reversal (Aim 1), or by pathway `crosstalk'proteins that non-classically guide damage into one of the major DNA-excision repair pathways (Aims 2-4) to avoid release of toxic DNA species. Our efforts to date have helped elucidate the structural chemistry for human direct reversal proteins AGT (O6- alkylguanine-DNA-alkyltransferases) and ABH3 (the dealkylation dioxygenase AlkB homolog 3) and support their further characterizations proposed in Aim 1. We moreover discovered three systems to characterize crosstalk, an important cellular strategy for alkylation repair pathway intersection that promotes the non-classical entry of damaged DNA into excision repair pathways. We will therefore furthermore characterize three specific alkylation base damage response proteins that promote non- classical entry into each of the three prototypic pathways for DNA excision repair:
Aim 2) ATL (alkyl- transferase-like) that is transferase-inactive but genetically connected to nucleotide excision repair (NER), which excises bulky lesions that distort DNA, Aim 3) AGTendoV (O6-alkylguanine-DNA- alkyltransferase-endonucleaseV) that covalently connects AGT with the Endo V DNA backbone excision enzyme to form breaks that are substrates for BER, and Aim 4) glycosylase-inactive Mag2 (methyl-adenine-glycosylase homolog 2) that genetically and structurally connects to mismatch repair (MMR) that classically excises mismatched regions. We propose to integrate quantitative biophysical characterization of proteins and complexes by macromolecular X-ray crystallography (MX) and small angle X-ray scattering in solution (SAXS) in the Tainer lab with complementary detailed in vitro and in vivo biochemical and mutational results from the Pegg lab. The proposed work will characterize core alkylation repair initiation proteins and their in vivo functions to elucidate structure-function mechanisms for key facets of non-glycosylase alkylation damage repair. Overall, these results will provide a unified understanding of alkylation damage responses relevant to genetic integrity, to chemotherapy resistance, and to promoting advances in alkylation inhibitors for cancer therapies. Results obtained will therefore shed light on DNA alkylation repair proteins, their inhibitors, and steps relevant to novel therapeutic strategies and cancer chemotherapies. DNA alkylation is a source of genomic instability leading to cancer predispositions, and is also a major result of cancer chemotherapies. Alkylation damage can be removed directly by reversing the base damage or by the recruitment of non-classical repair machinery to correct the lesion;yet, neither the structural chemistries nor the mechanisms of `crosstalk'mediated by these pathways are fully understood. We propose to characterize the structural cell biology of these two key facets of alkylation damage repair, which are directly relevant to improved cancer chemotherapies and risk assessments for environmental agents.

Good but not quite as good as the first book.
I really want to clarify that I did enjoy this book, all in all it was a decent enough listen and continues the story from the first book.
BUT, and it is a rather large but, there are a lot of flaws in the book. Again, I did enjoy the book so keep that in mind as I tear it a new one. First off there is waaay to much sob story going on in this book, every other character has some tragic past or trauma to get through. In some places it works, like in the case of the party from the first book getting through the loss of Diana. In others, it just feels heavy handed and trying to make characters interesting by giving them bad melodrama. Second is something that others have made mention of in that the book hardly follows doc at all instead following new faces and the previous adventurers in what id say feels like a 70/30 split, doc unfortunately getting the 30. Third, for a book that constantly talks about loss and has people dying constantly in the dungeon it seems extremely afraid of killing off any main characters. It gets a real star trek redshirt feeling when everyone dies except ya know, the guys fighting on the front lines that have names aside from "knight #7" or "miner #51". Fourth, and my biggest beef with the book, The first book made the setup of the princess being the dungeons avatar out to be something hugely important. In this book, aside from her being around and mentioned in a few passages she is practically forgettable and could be removed without even altering the story. That is to say aside from serving to be a deus ex machina crap twist at the end. It felt ham fisted at best, and at worst it turns one of the biggest plot points of the first book into a magic fix it button when the writer ended up writing himself into a corner or didn't want to go through with something he had already put down to paper.
Jeffrey Logue did pretty good in this book, for the most part every character was distinctive enough to need little reminding who was speaking. Overall a good voice to relax and listen to.
Its fun to listen to, but there is also a lot wrong here with the book. Some things from the first book that were made to be important are hardly touched or mentioned, and mostly the book focuses on adventurers old and new instead of doc and his pixy cohort.

Better than the first. But not by much.
first, thank you for stopping the "mommy/daddy" dynamic of the twins. It was creepy. Though mama and papa are only marginally less cringy.
Still to vague. Rather than take the time to flush out the story and characters to get a decent sized book, it just feels rushed or incomplete. storylines or backstories get smashed into the main story in such a hamfisted manner, I keep having to go back to listen again to see if i missed some conversation that would make these character interactions make sence. I didn't. For a book series that's supposed to be centered around sentient dungeons this book seems to be way more about the random npcs of the town. nobody of consequence seems to ever be in real danger of the dungeon. I for one do not care about the kindly human blacksmith who b.s's his way into teaching life lessons. (by the way, to anyone who ever would think that using a half forged sword to block a fully forged sword to teach a point as a life lesson. dont. you will die. that was a terrible idea and a stupid plot point.) Nor do I particularly care about the various depressing sob stories of adventurers that I want to see the dungeon eat!
the best part of this book is the dungeon to dungeon combat, which is something other books in this genre have not done, yet. but its only like the last 10% of the book.
also, for the love of God. Never name an incredibly powerful being in your own book after yourself Jeffery "Falcon" Logue. I could not care less about the authors own narcissism. that character by any other name would be an alright addition. But the author naming the character after himself? It's insultingly bad writing. You could easily just have used a different name. OR better yet you could NOT include your nickname as your nomme de plume, and guess what? We would NEVER HAVE KNOWN THE DIFFERENCE. Imagine if in the last book of the "song of ice and fire" series suddenly had a super amazing warrior by the name of George Martin who shows up, takes control of the white walkers and dragons, kills the other characters and wins the game of thrones by virtue of his super incredible awesomeness. It would be as much B.S. as this.
To summarize: too short, lazy writing, authors own narcissism on display, not worth the price.

Better than the first
The performance of the reader drags this one down a bit, with the same voice being used for a small child occasionally being used by a bear beast man. Yelling is not this reader's forte, but I can understand that it's hard.
This causes some confusion in conversations, though, for the most part, each character has a slightly different tone.
The story is much improved, with more done with exploring evolutions of slimes and mechanics of the dungeon.
If you liked the first, then the second would also be worth a look.
