Country Ham Bagelwich with Cream Cheese and Vidalia Onions
I used some of that sliced country ham that they sell at Kroger and some diced Vidalia onions, which I fried with the ham.
The fault with this sandwich was that there was too much salty ham on there to balance the flavor. About halfway though, I scarfed the remainder of one of the two slices and then ate the rest. It was a major upgrade.
The real lesson learned here, however, is just how good Vidalias tastes when fried with country ham. It takes the guesswork out of salting and adds a bit of stank to it that only some ol' nasty, funky country ham can provide.
I give it 3.5 out of 5 Virginians in a hurry to get to work in the morning.

Successfully tanked this past weekend by myself and another feral druid. Let me start by saying, "I love his fight!" The whole concept of the warrior/druid is nice and tanking him as a druid I just find funny. We wiped a few times but it went fairly smoothly for my first time there and my guilds second downing of him. We didnt beat the timer, but maybe next time.
Tips for the bear boss:
As a tank you are given a roll to tank either the humanoid form or the bear form. you will trade taunts/growls to get aggro.
1) Get your aggro as soon as he changes form follow up with your high aggro moves as quickly as possible. you need to put yourself at 110+% of the other tanks aggro as quickly as possible.
2) when it's not your turn to tank take off auto attack and do nothing for 15-30 seconds. Pretty much untill your other tank has your aggro down to 80% of theirs. When they have aggro solid go back to auto attacking.
3) when it's not your turn to tank use demo roar and FFF. let the other tank worry mostly about the pure aggro moves and keep these debuffs on. every little bit helps. keep lacerate up too, but dont spam it.
4) trinkets help. use any defencive trinkets when the silence goes off, this is when I used my frenzied regen too. every little bit helps.

Game four of the World Series was close to the wire and it another back and forth struggle that was scoreless until the bottom of the third inning. Michael Conforto hit a home run to give the Mets a 1-0 lead, and Curtis Granderson drove in Wilmer Flores on a sacrifice fly to give them a 2-0 lead. The Royals cut the lead to one on a Alex Gordon single scoring Salvador Perez in the top of the fifth inning. Then in the bottom of the inning Conforto hit his second home run of the game to give the Mets a 3-1 lead. The Royals cut the lead again to one on a Lorenzo Cain single scoring Ben Zobrist in the top of the sixth inning. Then the Royals took the lead in the top of the eighth inning, and it was started an error by Daniel Murphy that scored Zobrist, Mike Moustakas got a base hit scoring Cain to give the Royals a 4-3 lead, and Perez got a single scoring Eric Hosmer to give them a 5-3 lead. Wade Davis got the last six outs and gave the Royals a comeback win, and 3 games to 1 series lead. The New York Mets are learning the hard way that you did not make errors against the Kansas City Royals. The last team that came back from a 3-1 World Series deficit was the 1985 Royals against the St. Louis Cardinals. If the Mets can do it, Matt Harvey has to win game five and he will take on the Royals Edinson Volquez. First pitch for game five at Citi Field is set for 8:00 P.M.

Dakar, Senegal (PANA) - Senegal on Tuesday commemorated the 15th anniversary of the sinking of the boat, "Le Joola", which occurred on the night of 25 to 26 September off the Gambia, causing 1,863 deaths and disappearances.
Taken in a strong storm, the ship, which serviced the Dakar-Ziguinchor link, had more than 2,000 passengers on board, far exceeding its capacity.
According to the official record, only 64 people survived the tragedy, the largest in maritime history, the cause of which is mainly related to overloading.
The official commemoration ceremony took place in Ziguinchor, in the south of the country, from where the boat came.
It was attended by a large government delegation led by the Minister of the Armed Forces, Augustin Tine, several local government officials, as well as religious and customary leaders.
Prayers and recollections took place in the various sites where the victims of the sinking lie, notably in Mbao, on the outskirts of Dakar, where a cemetery was laid out for the occasion.
Families of victims continue to demand the bailout of the boat while others refuse to collect the financial compensation paid by the State of Senegal.
The sinking had resulted in the resignation of the ministers responsible for land transport, Yousoupha Sakho, and his counterpart of the Armed Forces, Youba Sambou.

Featuring Rook's Holiday Collection, "Dark Amazon"
"Never lose yourself assuming that the given path is a single fixed direction."
Rook's Holiday collection "Dark Amazon" explores multiple facets of design, from composing design using different mediums – color pencils, pen and ink, graphite – to layering each element to give it texture and undivided attention to details. 'Dark Amazon' was shot by Adri Law, who brought a cool, Californian aesthetic to Rook's eclectic and dark collection, while also capturing details through layers.
Here is an exclusive look into the inspiration behind the Dark Amazon collection.
Because the creative process behind Rooks signature style of hand illustrated drawings is often overlooked and mistaken for photographs, the video will show the raw, gritty process from start to finish of the Doberman Crown illustrated by Co-Founder / Creative Director Joe King.

With little relevant price history, developers and their lenders have relied upon price forecasts from market consultants when constructing downside scenarios for merchant power plants. However, no one has known how reliable these forecasts would really turn out to be. The real question appears to be where the generator is located on the dispatch curve. For plants with high dispatch factors (baseload capacities), a 10% price decrease may be a satisfactory downside assumption, whereas for mid-merit or peaking plants, because of decreases in both prices and dispatch factors, a 30% discount could be too light. Consequently, rules of thumb suggested by rating agencies that plants should be able to tolerate revenue discounts to break-even (DTBE) of 30 % would not be applicable across the cost curve.

All dressed up…
I decided to be more proactive about making friends and getting to know the area. My plan tonight was to get dressed for going out, walk down to the local bar that both of my siblings have recommended, and have a drink. It sounded really good as a plan, but I probably should have predicted the reality.
The reality is that busy bars overwhelm me even when I'm meeting someone. On my own I can't even go in. So I turned the corner and decided to walk to a different bar to try my luck there. I did that for about an hour and a half, walking all the way to Clarendon and back, passing dozens of bars. Many of them looked like great places to bring a date, grab dinner with a friend, or hang out with a big group. None of them seemed particularly good for hanging out on my own.
So now I'm back home, looking great, with sore feet and a tired spirit. I'm not upset with myself – I know I did my best tonight, even though my best is just walking by fun places. It's hard to figure out how to make friends though when it seems like the only way to go out is to already have friends.

Why L.A.'s Bike Plan just won't work3:26:00 PM
by Mike Satterfield
Ok so Los Angeles is a bit of a crazy place, the Mayor does yoga, they just spent $34 million dollars on shade balls, and every time it gets over 90 degrees they news is flooded with stories about how to find a local cooling center.
So when the city council rolled out their plan to increase the number of bike and bus lanes in an attempt to kick us out of our cars I have to say I was a little confused. Firstly let me say that I am all for clean, efficient, effective public transportation, a great public transportation system is one of the greatest equalizers for economic opportunity a city can offer its citizens.
Los Angeles has never had much of a public transportation system and much of that has to do with the historic corruption within the city government. From the streetcar conspiracy that cost the city its light rail lines (see map below) to rumored collusion with the taxi companies to prevent a train from reaching LAX it seems the same political hacks who want us out of our cars have been preventing reasonable options for years. How many Angelinos know that at one point during the 1940′s over 65,000 riders a day were shuffling down into the depths of Los Angeles to board the subways which traveled beneath the busy streets of downtown and connected to Orange, San Bernardino, and Riverside Counties? My guess most don't know that their city once had a real light rail and subway line.
|The original Pacific Electric line connected all of Southern California with an advanced subway connecting much of the Los Angeles area.
So Los Angeles instead of fixing the aging roads that are rated as some of the worst in the country, instead of building a subway network to pre-WWII standard, instead of adding more freeway lanes all of which would create economic opportunity in the city... they want you to ride a bike. They want you to bike to work, school, to pick up the kids, to shop, that is their solution, revert to a invention from 1817.
Remember the quip I made about the cooling centers... its really hot here in Southern, California in parts of Los Angeles it can be over 90 degrees much of the summer, sometimes dipping into the triple digits. I suppose you will need to ride your bike from government cooling center to government cooling center so you can survive the heat as up pedal past all of the cars stuck in government created traffic.
Bikes are great, I ride one to work when I can, it is about 12 miles each way and thankfully I live outside of Los Angeles. But when I go into the city, like most people, it is for business. Working in the apparel industry it means I am meeting with apparel manufacturers, attending trade shows or conferences, picking up samples or production orders. These are all things I can't do on a bike.
The other problem and the biggest tragedy of making the city more bikeable at the expense of car lanes is that it will end up trapping motorists in their cars for longer periods of time. Without real transportation options the impacts the working poor and middle class are far greater than those who can afford to live in the city, strap on their cool cycling uniform and smugly pedal from the home in Santa Monica to their office in Venice Beach.
A large segment of the population cannot afford to live in the city and many have commutes of over 25-30 miles, meaning biking is not an option. Trapping them in their cars or forcing them into ineffective public transportation is stealing time from them that they could be using to go to school, work a second job, or just spend time with their families. The left is always talking about work/life balance, but it seems that they don't consider the impact of terrible traffic coupled bad public transportation has on the work/life balance of those who have to commute.
In a city already rife with access issues to fresh food, education, and employment, increased traffic will only exacerbate an already bleak situation in many parts of the city. The people of Los Angeles and the surrounding communities have a right to spend as much time pursuing their dreams, not suffering in traffic created by the delusional fantasies of social engineers.
Here are some google map estimates for travel time for a typical commute I might have in L.A. meeting with a vendor in the fashion district and then heading over to the West Side to visit one of our retailers. The car is half the time of cycling and a third the the time of public transportation. My time is valuable, as is everyone's and L.A. should be looking at a plan that shortens travel times for all of us.

So what's it like to come back to America after being gone for most of a year? Part of it remains to be seen. I have not left the Fort Dix/McGuire Air Force Base complex yet, so I still have more to see and get used to. I suppose it is better to return slowly.
My first funny shock was the Taco Bell commercials, recommending the new Drive-Thru diet. Taco Bell has very funny commercials. What could be more American than the idea of a diet that you can do just sitting on your butt in your car!! And what could be more sneeringly American than to put the idea on TV for an audience that is drowning in flippancy.
This evening I saw a commercial for a healthy lifestyle diet plan. I don't remember which one it was, but all around the day room where the TV was playing mostly unwatched were men in their late 20s to mid 30s surrounded by pizza boxes and other delivery food containers. They were playing a video war game on line with each other. It was a beautiful day today, almost 50 degrees. These plus-size guys had been playing for hours, eating pizza.
I have been to the PX a half-dozen times already. It's fun just to walk around and look at all the stuff you can buy here in America. I can get any kind of shampoo I want.
I haven't yet had to ride in traffic, drive a car, commute or any of the dangerous stuff I have been spared for the last year. I ordered a new internet serive for our house that had me on the phone for almost an hour. I have to make two more calls for that one.
And sadly, I am no longer immune from the news. I read about Pat Robertson saying that the earthquake in Haiti was God's judgement on the Haitian people and read Rush Limbaugh's predictably callous comments about the plight of the Haitians. Thousands dead and suffering is, for him, nothing more than a chance to take a shot at Liberals for being willing to help. Sometimes I hate the idea that all of us who served went over there in part to defend free speech for people like Robertson and Limbaugh, but in America they have as much right to speak as anyone else. But whether they have a right or not, they are no less pathetic cowards for doing so.

And now for something really boring…let's talk about classical music.
I guess I'll start off with a question…how many of you think the Goldberg Variations are about the wrestler? Maybe a book or a movie chronicling diabolical cloning experiments of wrestler Goldberg gone awry? Close…but not exactly.
The Goldberg Variations are one of those pieces of music with a colorful story that may, or may not, be true depending on who you ask. The most widely accepted version of that story is that Johann Sebastian Bach composed the Goldberg Variations for an insomniac Count by the name of Keyserlingk who happened to be the Court of Dresden's Russian Ambassador. Johann Gottlieb (Theophilus) Goldberg was a harpsichordist in the employ of Keyserlingk who routinely played Bach's composition for the Count during his bouts of insomnia and whose name the piece eventually claimed as its own.
Delving into the more unsubstantiated and inaccurate realms of history for a fun and slightly disturbing point of interest…Keyserlingk was actually appointed to his ambassadorship by none other than Catherine the Great, who, again, may or may not have died while trying to mount her beloved steed…in the biblical sense.
Now back to our regularly scheduled program.
Some of the musical powers that be apparently take issue with a few small facts in the Keyserlingk/Goldberg story such as, at the time of it's publishing in 1742, the piece didn't have a dedication and Bach's own "brief" title for the piece was not the Goldberg Variations but "Keyboard Practice consisting of an Aria with Diverse Variations for the Harpsichord with two Manuals Composed for Music Lovers, to Refresh their Spirits"…which I think history would have found equally as popular, as it rolls off the tongue so well. There is also some doubt as to whether or not Goldberg, being only fourteen or fifteen at the time, would have had the technical ability on the harpsichord to pull off the piece's technical demands.
So now that you know what it is, you may be wondering why I chose to call this, The Goldberg Variations or Three Sides to Every Story? No? Oh, well...I'm going to tell you anyway.
I am the proud owner of three different recordings of the Goldberg Variations, two of them by the same pianist. The first one I purchased was Glenn Gould's 1955 landmark recording of the piece, followed by his 1981 recording where he revisited the Bach composition. The last version I purchased was the 1999 recording by pianist Rosalyn Tureck.
Despite the obvious reasons these three recordings should be similar, they could not be more different. One of the most obvious reasons for that has to be the running time of the recordings. Gould's 1955 recording runs a mere 38 minutes while his 1981 version was stretched to just over 51 minutes and Tureck's 1999 recording clocks in at nearly an hour and a half. It would be easy to try and think of these recordings in terms of modern popular music and not understand how that could be possible. However, if you take the time to sit down with each of these albums, from the very first notes, the reason becomes obvious.
Interpretation is everything, and while you would expect variance between performers to some degree, Gould shows how age and experience can chance a person. In listening to the two Goldberg Variation recordings by Glenn Gould, the listener can literally hear him mature as a musician, a performer and a person.
Glenn Gould was 23 years old when he recorded the Goldberg's for the first time, technically it was the second time as there is a recording of a CBC performance from 1954, however the 1955 performance was the first studio recording of both Gould's career and of his playing of the Goldberg Variations. Variation 5 is perhaps the best representation of the 1951 Gould recording. In it, a young and painfully talented Gould sits at the keyboard and rockets through the passage like a speeding train. The keys show him no resistance and it's almost as if the natural laws do not apply to him in the thirty-seven seconds it takes him to complete the piece. He unleashes so much energy, and almost a bit of arrogance, in his mastery of the movement that when Variation 6 begins slower, it is almost painful to hear.
Through the time machine that is recorded music, the listener is then able to jump forward 26 years, more than double Glenn Gould's age at the time of the 1955 recording, to 1981 and hear the 49 year old Gould replay the Goldberg Variations near the end of his musical and corporeal life, he would die a short year later on October 4, 1982. From the opening notes of the Aria, you can tell that this is not the same man as the youthful boy in 1955. There is a solemnity in the performance that does not appear in 1955.
One of the most endearing, or annoying, aspects to both of the Gould recordings is Gould himself. Not only here, but in all of his recordings, Gould would vocalize the notes as he played. If you listen closely…and sometimes not that closely, you can hear the pianist literally singing along with himself. In the sense of a clean recording, it can be distracting at times, but as a record of a performer, it can be fascinating.
That leads us to the Tureck recording from 1999. Rosalyn Tureck's approach to the Goldberg Variations is altogether different than Glenn Gould's and even though the music is the same, this could be an entirely different composition than the Bach performed by Gould. While both of the Gould recordings exude technique, Tureck radiates feeling. That is not to say that she is not enormously technically proficient, it is just that she is in no rush to find the soul of the Variations she is playing. The notes here are carefully chosen and the overall effect is similar to watching a garden grown. The seeds are the original Bach score and under Rosalyn Tureck's capable hands, the score blooms. The Variations seem to flower under her touch. To me, the recording captures such a unique performance of the Variations that is worthy of existing on its own merits, regardless of the fact that it is of a celebrated Bach piece.
If you haven't been able to tell, I love Bach. He is my absolute favorite composer of all time. Others can claim Mozart or Beethoven, but please leave Bach to me. The music of Johann Sebastian Bach is full of mathematical precision and relentless technique, but also interminable depth and profuse feeling. I don't think you could have two better examples of those qualities than Glenn Gould and Rosalyn Tureck.

Semi Rickety Cart
Here's the next installment on the rickety carts. This one is semi rickety. Of course that could change after firing. The uprights may break away, go askew, and this cart will become very rickety in appearance. That's because there's only a small amount of surface connecting the uprights together at the top. Paper clay might be good to construct these with, one of these days I'll give it a try. These carts are deceptively simple looking but this one has 28 separate pieces. Toilet paper cardboard is a clay artist's best friend, they're great for propping up pieces till they dry sufficiently to stand on their own and support the load above. They have just the right amount of spring in them to put up pressure but not too much. Then there's a piece of two by four which wasn't high enough so I added two cone holders.
When I look at this cart I keep thinking I want to make one of those carts that used to carry circus animals in it. I think it would be cool to put one of those plastic or metal animals inside after firing. But how to get it in there if I have all the uprights fired in place? Maybe a few of the uprights would have to be removable. Something to ponder. Meanwhile the thicker plates are almost through their first trial by fire. However, the glaze load will be the real test as to whether they hold their shape or not. Thanks for reading and for all your comments.
There is something wrong with blogger commenting, hopefully they get it fixed soon, it is affecting all blogs - the problem is fixed now, so you should be able to comment.

I'm testing to see if I can comment.ReplyDelete
I seem to be able to comment again.ReplyDelete
The cart is a good balance between rickety and sturdy. Have you thought of trying a roof made as a secure lid?
How thick do you make your plate?
Could you make a clay animal and put it in the cart before you finished enclosing it?ReplyDelete
Hi Suzi, thanks, I was going to email you but I don't have your email can you send me an email and then I'll have it.ReplyDelete
Suzi, I think the plates are about 3/8 thick now that they are dry, we shall see, cooling down now. I plan on making a solid roof one too, the main problem is with the thinness of the uprights holding up anything which is any heavier. I also want to make some with a leather or canvas roof that I stitch on after firing, some colorful ones too, so many ideas and so little time.
Hi Lori, thanks, I thought about sculpting an animal, but my skill at sculpting isn't that good, but I will try and see what I can come up with, thanks for the pushing me towards working harder.
The cart is too cute!ReplyDelete
I recently made a couple sushi sets. I have to make them pretty thick, otherwise the plates warp really bad.
Really cute cart, Linda. Any chance Blogger would fit in there? Have a great weekend!ReplyDelete
Hi Cindy, thanks, I'll fire the plates tomorrow for the glaze load and we shall see.ReplyDelete
Hi Kittie, thanks, blogger and a few others might have to wall them in and send them off. Ha.

Reaction paper
Public Journalism
Part of a democratic society, and America in particular, is the idea of freedom of the press. What the press' role though in that democratic society seems debatable when it comes to the idea of public journalism versus more traditional types of journalism. The two readings for today address this idea of public journalism.
A Brief History in Public Journalism starts out with Paul S. Voakes laying out Edmund B. Lambeth's definition of public journalism. There were five key components to the definition. The first was to "listen systematically to the stories and ideas of citizens even while protecting its freedom to choose what to cover." The second was to "examine alternative ways to frame stories on important community issues." A third component was to "choose frames that stand the best chance to stimulate citizen deliberation and build public understanding of issues." Another aspect of the definition was to "take the initiative to report on major public problems in a way that advances public knowledge of possible solutions and the values served by alternative courses of action." The final aspect was to "pay continuing and systematic attention to how well and how credibly it is communicating with the public."
Voakes points out three things that he sees as contributing factors to the emergence of public journalism. One was "a decline in Americans' 'civic engagement.'" Another factor was (what some journalists saw as) embarrassing coverage of the 1988 presidential election. A third factor was when some American social philosophers were thinking about the writings of a German philosopher who wrote about the "public sphere."
A significant chunk of the remaining first half of Voakes article is about various models that people have put forth for the media and how it interacts with society and what the media's role should be. He mentions Walter Lippmann's view that it is up to the media to decide and tell the people what is important and what they need to know to vote. Another scholar he mentions was John Durham Peters, who is from the University of Iowa. Peters furthers Lippmann's point that society and the country as a whole today operates on too large of a scale for individuals to feel like they can make a difference when it comes to policy making. However, there are several counter points that are made as well.
The second half discusses the role that public journalism plays in society. One question that is raised is: does public journalism replace the age-old idea of journalism striving for objectivity with the idea of advocacy? One thing in particular that I found interesting was that despite some differences between the two groups, journalists working for "public journalism" papers and journalists working for traditional papers shared several common values. One was both viewed media as "a useful tool for discussing information."
The other reading was a type of book review by Cheryl Gibbs of the book The Pursuit of Public Journalism: Theory, Practice and Criticism by Tanni Haas. Gibbs called this book the most "inspiringly perplexing book I have ever read." Part of Gibbs' writing includes the summary of how Haas covers what journalists have done to help public life function well. Gibbs adds that the viewpoints in Haas' book are rather "romantic," hinting that they may be too good to be true or rather difficult to attain. Gibbs also said the effect that public journalism had on some communities was "a change for the better."
On a personal level, I tend to agree with Lippmann and Peters on this issue. Despite the fact that record numbers of people turned out to vote for the presidential election in 2008 (roughly 60-64% depending on what poll a person looks at), there are still millions of people who don't vote. I found another survey done by the California Voter Foundation that seems to back Lippmann's idea that people need the media to decide what is important to vote wisely. The survey reported that 65% of infrequent voters said that local newspapers were "influential" sources of information when it came to voting decisions. Another 64% said that network TV was an "influential" source as well. I think in this case, looking at infrequent voters is a little more telling. Consider that typically people who don't vote or vote infrequently are generally less informed than those who do vote/vote frequently. That being said, the fact that 64% said they don't frequently vote but network TV influenced them only strengthens Lippmann's point in my opinion.

Jesse Walker has an interesting article comparing various disasters and their accompanying reactions by the citizenry. Says Walker, in his Reason article "Disaster in New Orleans":
The civic breakdown we've seen in New Orleans is extremely atypical, not just next to smaller-scale emergencies like 9/11 but next to some of the worst natural and technological catastrophes of recent history.
Just so you haven't thrown in the towel on the human condition, tempting though it may sometimes be.

A rumor was circulating about Edgar Ramirez to play a villain in Zack Snyder's Superman: Man of Steel; now we have another name.
Deadline is reporting that Michael Shannon is a contender, for a villain role that's not being specified.
Shannon, who was nominated for an Oscar for his performance in 2008's Revolutionary Road and also played the manipulative Kim Foley in last year's The Runaways. Recently he's been playing the devout and dark FBI agent Nelson Van Alden on Boardwalk Empire.
All of this to say that Shannon would be a phenomenal choice as a Superman villain; capable of playing darkness and menace. Same goes for Ramirez. They are both intense. Either one would be a fantastic pick.

A juvenile detention center in Jefferson Parish has descended into chaos in recent weeks, with fights involving entire dormitories and with teens repeatedly kicking down doors within the facility, an Orleans Parish judge was told Thursday.
Inmates increasingly have had the run of the Bridge City Center for Youth and even gained access to the roof of the building, where they roamed for hours one recent morning as a shorthanded staff struggled to regain control.
That dire picture emerged during a hearing in Orleans Parish Juvenile Court at which state officials described near-anarchic conditions as they sought to explain how a handcuffed teenager had been ambushed by seven or eight of his fellow inmates.
That teen has made repeated trips to the infirmary — where another teen remains with a broken jaw — and was ordered to be transferred to another facility following Thursday's hearing.
"They were swinging at him," Mark Thomas, a social services counselor at Bridge City, told Judge Mark Doherty, recalling the ambush. "I heard a lot of youths screaming."
Thomas, who has worked at the facility for a month, said episodes of violence have escalated during his brief tenure, thanks in large part to the ability of the young inmates to break through the doors of their dormitories. "It's been happening often," he said.
Thomas said some parts of the facility are safe, but he said juveniles in the Justice dormitory have been repeatedly threatened and attacked by their counterparts in the Liberty and Faith dorms. Officials placed the Justice dorm on lockdown for two days this week, Thomas said, because the door was "broken three or four times" Monday. "It happened again on Tuesday," he said.
One day last week, in an apparent protest against living conditions, juveniles from several dormitories managed to get to the roof, where they ran around and jumped "from one roof to another" from about 10 a.m. until midafternoon, Thomas said.
The youths have complained in recent weeks that they aren't receiving sufficient food, water and hygiene products at Bridge City, one of three "secure care" facilities in Louisiana that house juvenile offenders.
On Sunday, nearly two dozen juveniles were "loose on the campus" from about 8 p.m. until about 3 a.m. the next morning, according to a state law enforcement official familiar with the situation.
"The kids are so out of control that a substantial amount of staff have already quit," the official said, noting that authorities are investigating an incident in which an inmate recently choked a female staff member.
The staffing shortage at Bridge City has become so acute that officials are relying on the assistance of probation and parole officers to secure the facility, a development that seemed to concern Doherty.
As in years past, officials of the state Office of Juvenile Justice sought to play down the challenges at the Bridge City center, a facility that has long been plagued by rampant staff turnover and violence.
Timothy Maples, the assistant director at Bridge City, described the situation as "mild" by comparison to the dysfunction found in other correctional settings.
"You're going to have situations that come up," Maples told the judge. "We're constantly improving."
Beth Touchet-Morgan, the deputy assistant secretary of the Office of Juvenile Justice, said the agency began a review of recent incidents at Bridge City even before Thursday's hearing. She declined to say how officials plan to address the problem of the teens breaking down doors.
Asked earlier this week about the day the inmates got to the roof, she acknowledged in an email that there had been "an incident where a few kids were considered out of area."
"Basically, they were not in the area that they were designated to be at that time," she wrote. "They were not assaultive and remained within the inner perimeter of the facility."
She also denied that any part of Bridge City had been placed on lockdown, a term the agency generally avoids.
"There have been brief periods of time, on occasion, when movement may be limited in the interest of safety and security," she added.

Not working on FF 57
Quit working in FF ESR 52.5.0. Almost worthless now...
This the the add-on I use most! I will also miss it the most. PLEASE rewrite/update it so it will work post Firefox 57?
EDIT: Never mind. I found an up-to-date, and better replacement for this add-on: SSS
indispensable addon for me, unfortunately since Firefox v39, it causes the right-click context menu to stop showing up sometimes. Only disabling and re-enabling the addon fixes the issue.
Excellent and does the job. Thanks.
This is an indispensable add-on. I've used it for years. For whatever reason, it won't work with FF40 (and it needs to be signed too).
Thank you for your upgrading this addon.
It's really great, and I have used for several years.
Keep on updating it!
It basically means you can highlight any text, insert it into any url and open it directly on right click.
This means you can make custom right click searches on any site that has a regular url string when you search, which is most sites.
For example:
Search Twitter for "$"
- For searching Twitter ("All", not "Top")
Because it's simple and logical you can even get creative. I use this:
Open "$"
- To simply open a new tab with the highlighted text in address bar, which I use to open plain text URLs.
It may be called "Dictionary"Search but it can do a lot more than that.
I have been using this add-on for almost two years and I am thoroughly satisfied with it. Whenever I need to know the definition of a word or know its synonyms or antonyms, I use this trusty extension to help me do just that. Because of the ease of access and wealth of information provided by this add-on and its accompanied lexical website, my ability to speak and write properly has been dramatically improved. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to better their English.
Doesn't set parent tab and thus opens at the end of the tab bar. Other than that, a very professional extension.
I've used this addon for years - and so glad it keeps working!
It's great for additionally adding useful context menu items for highlighting postcodes and looking them up in maps, or products and looking them up on Amazon... the possibilities are endless (well actually - you have 4, but thats always proved fine)
Very useful, and not just for dictionaries!
Is there any way to specify a _single_ target window, or just re-use the last one? It's sooo much more convenient to just detach one window and leave it open.
Thanks again for a great tool.
Very useful addon, used for years even though it was a hassle to set it up the way I wanted. Context search ( https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/context-search/ ) is much better.
Anyway thank your for your addon.
This works great but i wish there were more dictionary slots to fit more sites in. The reason for more is for language learners who need access to multiple dictionary, colloquial/idiom dictionaries, conjugation searches etc.
Suggestion: Please add more spaces to add more dictionaries.
Whenever there is a new PC or browser installation is taking place be it in office or for my friends, I make it a point to have Firefox installed with powerul, smart addons like DictionarySearch and many others. Per my calculations this add-on definitely saves 10-15 secs of your time on every search you do. You save quite a LOT of time when you do thousands of search in a day and this add-on makes it very easy with just asking you to enter the text for (context menu) and the URL for the search. I will repeat my words, use this addon if you want to know the dictionary meaning of a word, Google images, Wikipedia page, Acronym finder (from acronymfinder.com) and almost any type of search and it is REALLY SIMPLE.
Great add-on, can be used in a lot of different ways than just dictionary lookup (e.g. look up a bug ID in a bug database, look up a book title or ISBN number on your favorite online bookstore etc. etc.)
This is an absolute must-have for me. Which is why I've been delaying the upgrade to Thunderbird 12 :(
Any chance we can have an updated version soon?
Glad to see an old friend is active again (the add-on, not the dev). What I like the most about this one is the ability to install several dictionaries.
It's pretty good. I found it because I was reading an online textbook for school and i was sick of tabbing back and forth from google back to the material. Anyways, is there a way where you can skip opening another window just a smaller scrollable window pops up underneath the word so that you can read on with losing your place or train of thought? Basically highlight and right click define and whatever dictionary website you currently have supporting the add-on could still be in the heading. It would be cool to be able to read and then when you come to the word you don't know you can simply work the definition into the rest of the sentence from the small pop up screen
This is one of my favorite addons simply because it allows me the option to add customizable searches. So now I can make a selection and not only search dictionary within a quick and simple right-click, but search engines, shopping sites, etc
The best addons for a quick word look-up in any web dictionary (such as http://lingvopro.abbyyonline.com/ru) search engine etc. (specially those do not have own addons)( Thanks a lot! Sadly the Updates for new FirerVoxes lag behind, but thanks to rathalos420 who made the update you can use it now with Firefox 9 ( https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/user/2241375/ ) Many thanks too!
I've posted an updated version (working with Firefox 9) here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/dictionarysearchupdated/
I'll try to push updates within a day or so of new stable releases of Firefox. Many thanks to the original author.
Great addon. This works with Firefox 9:
Very simple addon and to the point. I knew tfd.com from this addon.
I've been searching for this for months, and the main reason I couldn't find it was because I didn't even use it for a dictionary, but other search engines, which is something it does better and faster than the leading addons in that category. It's the only one I know of that lets you put them in the very first context menu layer, and not in a sub-menu for faster access. Also no extra hassle with downloading search engine toolbars, like many require you to do. It does currently work on latest stable version of Firefox for me with no problems, i can't confirm for betas.
The only suggestions I would give would be picture icons next to each search but it's no big deal, room for more slots of course which i'm sure everyone wants, and change tags or whatever on this site so it pops up more often so other scan discover it(not sure how this works). thanks for one of the most simple and useful addons i've seen
Please and please try to shorten the tome to release a new revision to work with latest Firefox.
Please don't let your fans wait to long!

"A two-day international conference on how social sciences and humanities research can address societal challenges and optimise societal well-being".
This September, the AESIS Network is organising an unique international conference that will bring together best practises on how to reach and optimise impact of social sciences and humanities, how to create synergy between academic and societal outcomes and how to develop research that matters.
This international conference comes at a time when demonstrating impact of scientific research made a high jump on the agendas of policymakers of research strategists, funders and science policymakers across the world. As a consequence, many new inspiring insights have been generated on how this impact can be boosted within social sciences and humanities.
Together with their stakeholders within society, new consortia, methods and structures have been developed to generate more visible impact for their partners. These narratives are increasingly decisive to connect new partners and investors.

Tiered Skirt Tutorial
I apologize that it has taken me so long to post this tutorial. I took photos as I made the first skirt, but then I never got good pictures of the girl in the skirt -- the final product. I finally decided I would just have to show the skirt without the girl (above), as you have already seen the girl in the second skirt (below).
This skirt is a simple sew -- no pattern needed, all straight lines. The numbers (cutting widths) are very particular to the person for whom you are making the skirt. My daughter is eight years old and wears a size 8 slim. I wanted the skirt to fall just past her knees, so I measured her (total length from waste to just below the knee), divided (by three panels) and added (seam allowance, hem and waistband). You can also use a skirt that currently fits to get your measurements.
What I ended up doing was making each panel 8 inches deep, and even though the finished top panel was not as deep as the middle panel because of the waistband and the bottom panel was not as deep as the middle panel because of the hem, that was o.k. because the top and bottom fabrics were the same and you could see plenty of it. I just confused you didn't I?
You can choose whatever fabrics you like. I used a seersucker purple and white gingham for the top and bottom panels of the first skirt, with a white eyelet middle panel. For the second skirt I used a blue with yellow and white daisies for the top and bottom and yellow with white, blue and green daisies for the middle.
Just pick two or three fabrics that coordinate and you'll be fine. I chose my fabrics based on the colors of tops my daughter already had in her closet, so I could make outfits.
Wash and iron your fabric first. Then you cut tiers. My tiers/panels were 8" x 48" -- for the top panel, 8" x 68" -- for the middle panel, and 8" x 92" inches -- for the bottom panel. That's roughly twice her waist measurement (for the top tier), then 1.5 times that number (for the middle tier) and 1.5 times that number (for the bottom tier), altered slightly to suit the width of my fabric. (I always say "cut your pattern to fit your cloth.")
Let's call the top tier A, the middle tier B and the bottom tier C.
A = waist measurement x 2
B = A x 1.5
C = B x 1.5
A, B and C were all 8 inches deep.
So, after you wash and iron your fabric, cut your panels. For the B and C tiers, you will likely have to cut two widths and sew them together (right sides facing) to make one long panel (most fabric does not come wide enough unless you are making a wee tiny skirt, and if you are making a very large skirt, you may have to cut three pieces). After you piece together the B and C tiers, sew the A edges together, the B edges together and the C edges together (all right sides facing) -- essentially creating three large bands of fabric (see photo).
Next, take the B tier and sew around the top using a long basting stitch, about 1/2 inch from the raw edge. Pull the bobbin thread, gathering B until it is the same length as A.
With right sides facing, pin the top, gathered edge of tier B to the bottom edge of A, lining up the side seams (tier A will probably only have one side seam, just make sure the gathers are even and B's other seam is at the other side of A ). Then baste, using a 1/2 inch seam allowance, adjust gathers to keep them fairly even around the skirt. Check to be sure you're happy with the way it looks (don't worry if you can see basting or gathering stitches -- you won't later) then stitch with a 5/8 inch seam allowance. Trim the raw edge with a pinking shears or stitch them with a zigzag stitch to keep them from fraying (if you pink the edges be careful you don't cut into any fabric that shouldn't be cut -- always know what is between the blades).
Iron toward tier A.
Now you will repeat for the C tier. Iron toward tier B.
Now, stitch both seam allowances to the tier above it (A and B) from the right side using a 1/4 inch seam allowance. I like to do this because the skirt washes better that way and looks nicer longer.
Once you have your three tiers sewn together and top-stitched, you will create a waistband and a hem. For the waistband, iron a 1/4 inch fold along the top edge of the skirt on the wrong side (my seersucker is a woven so both sides are the same).
Then iron another fold 3/4 inch from the first fold. I used 1/2 inch elastic -- if you use a wider or narrower elastic make your casing to fit your elastic.
Stitch close to the edge leaving a 2-inch opening to start the elastic through.
Thread the elastic through the casing, adjusting the gathers. (To determine the length of your elastic, measure your daughter's waist and cut the elastic slightly shorter -- you want it to stretch when the skirt in on).
Overlap the raw edges of the elastic slightly and stitch with a zigzag -- back and forth. Close the opening of the casing with a straight stitch.
For the hem: iron a fold 1/4 inch from the bottom edge of the skirt on the wrong side. Then again 1/2 inch from the first fold. Stitch close to the first fold.
Then all you have to do is iron and you're finished. Any questions?

Yes, what is this activity you speak of called "iron"? :)ReplyDelete
I'm just kidding. It looks lovely! I think I might just try one for each of my girlie girls.
Haha! You don't fool me Charlotte. I know you iron and you love it!ReplyDelete
Is 43 too old to wear one of these? :) It looks so cool and comfortable!ReplyDelete
I'm going to have to print this post up and try this....some time, really I want to sew, and cute skirts like this make me want to even more!! My girls would love these!ReplyDelete
Oh thank you!!! I will try this!ReplyDelete
Sheila -- Heck no! You could pick some very grown up fabrics and make a pretty skirt for yourself.ReplyDelete
Jamie -- when I wrote this tutorial I had you in mind. I know you can do it!
Be sure to post pictures, Amy.

Pretty skirts and wonderful tutorial! :)ReplyDelete
I am going to try this! With my mom's sewing machine ... and her help! But am I going to have to make four, one for each girl??!?ReplyDelete
Thank you, Cheryl.ReplyDelete
Sarah, absolutely you are. You probably won't need more than a yard of fabric for your little girls, but maybe a yard and half for you oldest. It would be so cute to have them all in coordinating colors!
How cute! My girls would love this! I'll have to save this for when I attempt sewing again. Someday! :-)ReplyDelete

What Do Women Want in a Relationship? Here Are the Most Vital Things Women Want in a Relationship
Men need to know how a woman feels, what makes her tick and what she expects out of a man. To know all this, one has to really understand a woman's psychological make-up and what she wants in a relationship. Most women look for certain things in a relationship that will ensure happiness and success. A quick look at these points below will give you an insight into a woman's expectations.
Women need to be satisfied on all counts
This means that she needs you to satisfy her mentally, physically and emotionally. This sounds like a tall order but if you really look at it - all she is asking for is pure attention and love which is not difficult to give considering you love her.
Very rarely you would come across a woman who is not looking for some sort of commitment in a relationship. No woman likes being taken for a ride. Neither does she like to be dumped after a while. So if you are a man who is willing to take a step towards commitment - you will make her very happy and content.
Honesty from her man
A woman can't stand lies and infidelity in a relationship any more than a man does. Honesty and truthfulness from her partner will make her secure and relaxed. A partner who is a cheat will only ruin the relationship.
Help and support
By this we don't mean that it is absolutely necessary for you to tie on an apron and help out in the kitchen - though many men are more than wiling to do that much to the delight of their women - but women are looking for men who are willing to be there for them.
A sexually satisfying relationship
Women need to be sexually satisfied and love a man who is physically compatible. Though sex is just one of the factors that are necessary in a relationship, it is an important one. The man should know how to keep the excitement and the flames of desire burning.
A need to be loved
A woman wants her man to love her and show it by hugging, kissing and telling her so. She will automatically be happier and have no moods if she you can prove to her that she is loved and cherished. If she is not sure and unhappy then be prepared for nagging as she will make your life a nightmare!
A shoulder to cry on
No matter how mature the woman is, she will always want a shoulder to cry on. She expects her guy to be her best friend, someone she can confide in at any time and someone who she can share her worst fears with.
Now listen carefully-
What you are about to discover something most men will never know when it comes to attracting women. This is one thing which is an absolute must know for every man out there. You are about to discover an ultimate secret weapon which will make women chase you around like crazy Even If You Are Bald, Fat Or Ugly!.....Trust me....You don't want to miss this one. I strongly urge you to read everything on the next page because it might be the most important message you ever read- Click HereBy Rahul Talwar

{Make sure you read Part I on how to follow a site using feeds.}
Welcome back!
If you read Part I, did you get here by following your feed? Did you get here from your favorites bar? Your "feeds" menu in your browser? Great!
Welcome back!
We've already discussed how to subscribe to your favorite online content using feeds, and a few different ways to read the content. Today, we'll talk about Google Reader*, another way to access all those goodies to which you've subscribed.
*You need a Google Account to access Google Reader. Good news…if you use any Google product (such as Gmail, Picasa, Blogger, iGoogle, etc) you already have a Google Account.
Otherwise, you can create one here using any existing email address you have (yahoo, hotmail, aol, etc).
You can find Google Reader on the main page of Google. See at the very top-left where it says "Web," "Images," etc? There should be a "more" up there as well. Click on the little triangle next to "more" and you'll find Reader in a drop down menu like so:
If you're not already signed-in to your Google Account, you'll be directed to a log-in page first.
If you are already signed-in, then you'll go straight to your Reader home page like this:
Points of interest:
A: Easily add a subscription (aka: feed) to your Google reader by adding the website's URL (or just use keywords & Google Reader will find it for you)
B: Tells you how many items total you have not read (Anything in bold means it's unread)
C: Google Reader will recommend sites/articles/pages it thinks you might like based on what you've subscribed to already
D: Lists all your subscriptions & the number of unread items for each website
E: Search within your subscriptions using keywords
F: Overview of all your subscriptions (again, bold = how many are unread).
Look at section F again. Notice that you can only see the first few lines of text for each item from the home page.
To see more, select "All items" in section B. It should now look like this:
Now you'll be able to see more of each item. Almost all of the time* you'll be able to see the entire post, pictures and all. They'll be listed with the most recent update first. Here, of all my subscriptions, CurlyPops happens to have been the latest one to post, so hers is up at the top.
*{If you remember from yesterday, authors have the option of only publishing a summary rather than the full content, which means you'd have to click on the post's title to see the full thing along with the pictures. For example, New York Times does that, if you'd like to see what I mean}
If you scroll to the bottom of the post, you'll see options to share it, star it, keep it unread, etc.
You'll also notice the next post right after it is from a different blogger, this time from Jen at Tatertots & Jello. All my subscriptions will show back-to-back because I chose "All Items" (Section B). If you were to select a particular subscription from your list (Section D) then you'd see items from just one subscription.
That's pretty much it! You can read all your content all in one place. Of course, you could add Google Reader to your Favorites bar too.
Now, let's run down the pros/cons of this, as well as some "advanced" features.
- Easy to see what's still left to read
- Can search or filter through available content
- Easily read through many items without leaving the page
- Direct link to site available
- Easily share items, or star for finding easier next time
- Might find some interesting things with the "Recommended" feature
- You miss out on additional information found on original website (welcome page, side bar, sponsors, etc.)
- No ability to comment on original author's post (so author & others can read it)
- Site author does not benefit from "hits" to his/her site if you stay on Reader
- Not all sites publish full content… some only publish summaries
Now for some neat things to know…
You can change which items show and how they're sorted straight from your "All Items" page.
You can even tell Reader to go straight to your "All items" page rather than your "Home" page; just click on "Set as start page"."
You can also change all sorts of settings down at "Manage Subscriptions"
There you can delete subscriptions, categorize them in folders, tell Reader when to mark something as "read," and find some neat Reader apps.
Give yourself a pat on the back... you are now a Google Reader guru. Don't worry, no one checks credentials! Happy reading!!
