- Return my ports back to the pool. I was unable to make any fixes to
my ports in the past 3 weeks while ports were broken on any 10.x
machines, which means I'm unable to maintain them. So let people know
that there's no available support for them until things are back to
normal (which also means that anyone with spare time will be able
to fix them without getting approval).
Bump PORTREVISION after open-mofit update
- Get Rid MD5 support
- Mark BROKEN: rtfwidget.m:579: fatal: syntax error "RtfwidgetRec"
Reported by: pointyhat
Convert most of remaining ports that depend on xorg-libraries to
modular xorg.

- USE_IMAKE no longer implies USE_XLIB in absence of USE_XORG
- retire USE_X_PREFIX which is not really used anywhere after the
above change
- a few minor nits like whitespace and SF macro
Tested by: 2 tinderbox runs by pav

|When in Rome She was a runaway princess rebelling against her sheltered life and royal obligations. He was a commoner � an American journalist covering the royal tour in Rome. Together they spent a topsy-turvy romantic holiday in the European city that wrote the book on love… Rome. Inspired by this modern day fairy tale of an enchanting and somewhat sheltered princess and her handsome and street smart suitor comes our Amore Collection. Sturdy links (that's him) meet delicate filigree hearts (our wayward princess) to form a perfect union of romance and style. Rome was their playground. And, our Amore Collection embodies the chic style and mystique of this Italian city that's cloaked in a charm all its own. The iconic 1950's romantic comedy won the beloved starlet a best actress nod. It's safe to say the striking performance of this golden collection will win plenty of rave reviews too, as you throw caution and convention to the wind and just follow your heart. That's amore!

About half of laptop owners do not like to work at their computers.Primarily, this is due to the fact that the prolonged use of the laptop starts to flow back, arms and hands hurt.That is why the decision of such inconveniences is the addition of the monitor to the laptop.
How much is a monitor and a cable for connection to a laptop
First you need to find or buy a monitor, as well as a special cord.Monitor you can buy at any online store or appliance store in your town.The cost of the monitor slightly hit your budget - depending on the destination of the monitor (to enjoy computer games, working with graphic and text editors, etc.), and will change its value.For example, an average of a normal monitor with a diagonal of 17-19 inches will cost you in 4500-5500 rubles.If you want to buy a fancy monitor, its value may reach 10-12 thousand rubles.That is why better to buy a monitor for easy connection to a notebook or desktop computer have to look that meets all your requirements.
cable that will conn
ect the monitor to your laptop, you will cost 500-900 rubles.
How to connect the monitor to your laptop
Insert one end of the cable into a special connector on the back of the monitor.Connect the other end to the same port on the laptop.Mistake and plug the cable into the wrong connector is simply impossible.
After you connect the monitor and the laptop setup.If you have a laptop is running Windows 7 (in recent years this OS is preinstalled on most laptops), you should right-click on the desktop and select the pop-up context menu, see "Screen Resolution."Next, select the settings window that opens.
If you want Desktop will only be displayed on the monitor, you need to select "Display desktop only on 2".When connecting the monitor to the laptop standard desktop will have displayed on the screen of the laptop, and the monitor.You, of course, you can leave these settings, but most likely, duplicate desktop display on the laptop screen is distracting you.
also need to adjust the screen resolution by itself.When you connect the monitor to select the best resolution of 1152x864.If you select a different resolution, the desktop will be too stretched, and the icons on it - large.But by and large it is a matter of taste.

This video has a lot more effort put into it than the last one. I've done my best to include as many different costumes, taunts, restands, and other kinds of odd combo extentions as possible.
Josuke Mound-fix combo at 1:24, Hol Horse Double HHA and Taunt "Restand" at 2:20, Lisa Lisa triple restand at 4:58, Will. A. Zeppeli 63214+S restand at 5:54, Old Joseph 63 hit, 5-bar combo at 6:14.
Combos and editing by Doopliss
Done in v.1.02.
Game-specific terminology:
Son=Stand On
Soff=Stand Off
PC=Puttsun Cancel
SR=Stand Rush
HHA=Heart Heat Attack
GHA=Great Heat Attack
HM=Hanged Man. With Hol Horse, press 214+A when the puddle is out from another 214+A.
MiH=Made in Heaven (Pucci's ultimate form)
Hermes Sticker Restand=When Hermes allows a combo to continue by getting hit with her own stickers after a taunt.
Only the capcom JJBA-combos are tool-assisted, the ASB combos are manually executed.
0:08 – Combo #1:
-j.H xx 214+S, PC, 2L xx 2M xx 5H xx 236+S xx Mx2 xx PC, j.H, 5LMH xx 236+S xx Whiffed M xx 4S, Taunt.
-Lisa Lisa's overhead finisher hits OTG, even though it's not noted as an OTG in the movelist.
0:20 – Combo #2:
-(Soff 236+L), Soff j.Hx2, 5LMH xx 41236+A, 236+L, Taunt, GHA, Taunt.
-Long-ranged 236+L used to allow the 41236+L to combo. j.H still comes out after you land, allowing you to do it late enough to hit with another one and still be able to do a ground combo. 236+L taunt restand seems to have trouble working on anyone but Wham, but I have of course not tested it against everybody.
0:45 – Combo #3:
-(Blocked 236+Ax2) xx 214+A xx PC, 214+L xx 236+S (Mash), Taunt, HHA, Taunt.
-Hermes sticker restand used at long range with Dio's HHA.
1:02 – Combo #4:
-Soff HHA, Son, 41236+H xx PC, Soff, 5LMH xx 6M xx 41236+S, Son, 41236+H xx PC, 5LMH xx 41236+M xx 6S (Mash), Dashx2, 41236+H
-All of Old Joseph's knockdown moves are hard knockdowns, and most give him enough time to land a 41236+H OTG. This combo showcases some of the more useful ones.
1:24 – Combo #5:
-Soff j.H, 5LMH xx 6H xx 22A xx PC (7th hit), 2Lx2 xx 5H xx 6H xx PC, j.M, 5LM xx 6H xx 623+A xx 5LMH xx 6H xx 236+A xx HHA xx 236+A, Dash, 22A, Taunt
-By PCing 22A on the 7th hit, the dirt mound required for Soff 623+A appears while the opponent still remains standing. Soff 623+A is cancellable by anything, making it a good combo extender if the opponent is between Josuke and the dirt mound.
1:47 – Combo #6:
-Son 5LM xx 236+L xx 4 (Hold S) xx PC, 5LM xx 46M xx HHA, Taunt
-At the right distance, Narancia can use his "236+A xx 4(Hold S)" attack mid-combo. It can also combo after some of the other 236+A follow-ups.
1:55 – Combo #7:
-Distortion: Son j.H, walk forward, 5LMH xx 22A xx PC (after capsule break), 5L xx 1-hit 5H xx 63214+A xx PC (before it connects), 6L (does 5L and releases capsule from 63214+A) xx 6M, GHA, Taunt
-Son 63214+A only combos from 5H if you're able to PC before it actually connects. The ground bounce is then carred by 5L and 6M, allowing him to end with GHA. Poison deals dfamage to Fuugo too, but it's not visible in practice mode.
2:20 – Combo #8:
-j.H, 5LMH xx 214+A xx HHA (Mash), HM, Taunt, dash, 2L xx 5MH xx S xx 236+S, 2L xx 5M xx 214+M xx HHA (Mash), HM, Taunt.
-Never seen anyone use any of these set-ups for Hol Horse's Hanged Man Taunt Restand. if you try to use Hanged Man twice in a combo, he produces a knockdown that the opponent will rise from very quickly, I wasn't even able to add a 3rd taunt.
2:46 – Combo #9:
-j.H, 5LMH xx 214+2A, 5H xx 623+A xx PC, j.H, 5H xx 214+Ax2 xx PC, 5H xx 214+Ax2 xx HHA, Taunt.
-In Horned Mode, Wham's j.H no longer has a slamming knockdown on airhit, allowing it to be used in juggles.
3:01 – Combo #10:
-j.LM, 2LM xx 5H xx 6H xx (236+A)x3 xx HHA, Taunt, GHA, Taunt.
-By making the HHA hit as late as possible, Dio can taunt before Hermes' stickers break, allowing him to sticker restand her.
3:33 – Combo #11:
-Whitesnake Soff j.H, 2Lx3 xx 5LMH xx 6H xx 214+A xx PC, 5LM xx PC, Son, 2LM xx 5H xx 6H xx 41236+A, Taunt.
-This combo is done with a perfect corner angle, meaning the dummy will never move sideways. By PCing Soff 214+A, Pucci can carry the groundbounce with his other moves. 5M's two hits gives enough height to allow him to turn his stand on. The Son-part of the combo is decided by chance, the corner juggle limit fluctuates, so sometimes it won't work.
3:45 – Combo #12:
-j.H xx 236+S, Dash, 5LMH xx 6M xx 236+S xx PC, sj.H, 5LMH xx 214+M xx PC, 5LMH xx 6M xx 63214+S, nj.H xx 214+S, 5L xx 623+S, Taunt.
-Comboing with 5L after 214+S is really weird to do mid-combo, this is one of the few ways I found that works. 236+S has less hitstun now than it did in v.1.01, so it's harder to use in combos.
4:03 – Combo #13:
-Son j.H, 5M xx 623+A xx SR, 5M xx 6H, GHA, (Taunt).
-Basic combo involving Son 623+A.
4:12 – Combo #14:
-(Son 623+A xx SR) Soff j.M, 5LM xx 6H xx PC, Son, (5LM xx 46+M, Dash)x2, 5LM xx 46+M, GHA, Taunt
-This loop can potentially be done more than three times with the right angle to the corner. Sadly, my tests are inconclusive since it's pretty hard to do.
4:39 – Combo #15:
-Son j.H, 5LMH xx 214+M xx SR, j.L, 2Lx3 xx 2MH xx PC, 214+L (Hold), Taunt (release L), HHA, Taunt.
-With a short custom taunt, you can restand with the exploding part of Soff 214+A. Unlike most characters, Avdol can't use medium attacks when his stand is out during Stand Rush. It should be able to restand after the HHA with "dash, 214+A xx PC, Taunt", but I never managed to do it.
4:58 – Combo #16:
-j.H, 5LMH xx 236+S xx H xx 6A xx PC, 5MH xx 236+A xx L xx 6S xx PC, 5MH xx 236+S xx L xx 6S, Taunt.
-Lisa Lisa's 6S finisher (as well as the 6A finisher and 236+S when the crumple of the combo has already been used) produces a weird knockdown that can be restanded before the opponent lands. With 236+S you can use this to restand with the L follow-up, but it's really hard to time. I originally did the combo on Wham, but after several hours of failing the L follow-up in the end (Which I've been able to do by itself on him), I switched to Johnny, who seems to give it a more lenient timing.
5:10 – Combo #17:
-Rage Mode: Soff 5LMHx4 xx 5H xx 6H xx 22A, 3M xx 623+A xx HHA, Dash, Son, 214+L xx PC, Taunt, 5LMH xx 3H xx 236+H, Taunt.
-Rage mode 3M can be cancelled into various specials. I intended to cancel into 236+A, but the follow-up combo is really tight, so I settled with 623+A even though it doesn't connect, since it still loooks kinda nice. The timing from activating your stand to taunting after the HHA is really strict, probably only a few frames of leniency in total. I was originally going to add "Son 623+L, 2L" between the 3H and 236+H in the end, but the juggle limit kicked in in the corner, and it doesn't seem to reach midscreen.
5:38 – Combo #18:
-j.H, 2Lx2 xx 5MH xx 6H xx 214+2A, 6H xx 236+H xx PC, 623+A xx PC, j.H, 5M xx 236+M xx HHA, Taunt.
-because of the properties of groundbounces, 236+H is an excellent move to use after 6H in Horned Mode.
5:54 – Combo #19:
-j.H, 5LMH xx 6M xx 236+S xx PC, nsj.214+S, 5L xx whiff H xx 63214+S, jb.6S xx j.H xx 236+H, Dash, 5LMH xx 214+S xx HHA, walk back, Taunt.
-Here's another situation where you can combo from 214+S. By whiffing 5H, you get close enough to combo 63214+S for a restand. j.236+H can be followed up by dashing into 5L if done in the right situation.
6:14 – Combo #20:
-(Soff 63214+A), Son 2H, 41236+H, (j.H, 2Lx(1~3) xx 5LMH xx 41236+L, 41236+H xx PC)x5, j.H, 2Lx2 xx 5LMH xx 41236+M xx 6S, Dash, 41236+H (Taunt).
-Placing the tar-pool between Old Joseph and the opponent gives him a free combo after Son 41236+H. The loop used builds back half a bar per repetition, allowing him to gain two extra bars during the duration of the combo, which is why he can PC five times. 41236+L rarely connect on standing opponents without a stand activated. The only ones I know it works on are Joseph and Wham, and with Wham you have to delay the cancel for it to work.
7:03 – Combo #21:
-MiH Soff 236+Lx7, Taunt (last disc hits), Taunt x6.
-MiH causes an untechable knockdown at 7 hits to prevent infinites. This knockdown triggers Hermes' stickers to detonate. If you let them detonate while she's still laying down, she won't get up when you taunt, allowing you to taunt multiple times. Normal characters can get three taunts, but MiH Pucci can get six. For some reason not all of them removes meter though, probably because they happen too fast in succession.
Capcom combos:
Since I can't remember the exact inputs for the moves, I'll just explain interesting things with words.
7:40: Capcom Combo #1:
-When timed correctly, you can use the world to land a jump-in and then continue with a combo. Shadow Dio's normal crouch cancel into 5H is used, but with some walking forward inbetween jabs for extra range. Stand Crash gives enough time to combo into Super.
7:48: Capcom Combo #2:
-Old Joseph runs into Young Joseph to make the Crossbow shots hit in the right way to fill the holes in his Cracker rekka and then end with a jab combo into dashing 2M into Super.
7:59: Capcom Combo #3:
-This is a variant of the Robber Soul combo used in our Stylish Exhibition v.2. After the Stand Crash, I whiff a dashing 5L to get close enough to combo Dashing 2L into his 360+A Super. The grab doesn't show up on the combo counter, but you can see it's a combo since it's damage is heavily scaled.

(Critical Edition of Young Adult Fiction)
Trease has written a colorful and fast-paced survey of English history with the lively biographical profiles included in the Seven Kings of England. Although written in an informal and pleasant style suitable for young readers, the book is more than a tapestry of people, places, and events; it is also a careful accounting of historical details that corrects false statements and reinterprets reputations and the forces behind events.
In his foreword, Trease states that "the particular seven kings in this book have been chosen for the dramatic quality in their lives and the interest (though not always the excellence) of their characters." He adds that he also considered it important that a variety of periods be represented: Saxon, Norman, Plantagenet, Stuart, and modern. Trease notes that he did not include a Tudor king but had represented that family well in his companion volume, The Seven Queens of England (1953).
Even though the chapters in Seven Kings of England are brief, Trease offers the young reader much detail and information about each of the rulers. He includes many stories and anecdotes that add flavor and humanity to the factual information. Each of the kings becomes a flesh-and-blood person, not simply a name in a history book. Trease accomplishes this feat by including descriptions of the rulers, both physical and emotional, as well as information about family relationships. Nevertheless, he avoids...

Employers value pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), but transparency, complexity and rebates top their list of concerns.
In a new blog published by Health Affairs, NPC's
Dr. Robert W. Dubois expands on our initial thoughts
on the collaboration between ICER and the VA.
"The United States cannot kick the health spending can down the road forever and assume that society will find a way to pay for the new technologies that our aging society demands."
How is high-quality, real-world evidence being generated, accepted and used to inform decision-making?
Is the value of medicines being recognized as an integral component of care?
What can we do to ensure patients have meaningful access to appropriate medications?
How can the health care system support biopharmaceutical innovation that improves patients' lives?
When it comes to paying for care, who—besides the patient and his or her caregiver—actually benefits from doing so, and when? It depends on the type of disease and its treatment, according to a new study from NPC, the Analysis Group and Harvard University Professor Dr. David Cutler.
Dan Danielson, MS, currently a senior clinical manager at Premera Blue Cross, participated in NPC's pharmaceutical internship program in 1993. Mr. Danielson chatted with us to answer a few questions about how his time at NPC impacted his work and career.
Join Health Affairs and NPC on Feb. 1 for an important event, "Health Spending: Tackling The Big Issues." Panels will discuss what we know about health care spending, examine the effectiveness of current efforts to improve value, and explore how various sectors are responding to high levels of health care spending.

Adrenaline is pumped into your bloodstream Brain diverts blood to major muscle groups Hairs stand up on the back of your neck Higher-level reasoning sections of your brain get LESS, causing you to turn into this! Conversation turns Crucial! But hopefully not this... We are Designed Wrong! Silence Kills! Taking Shortcuts
Exhibiting Incompetence
Breaking Rules or Policy The real problem is that those who observe this SAY NOTHING! Silence can negatively impact safety, productivity, and decreases TRUST Fool's Choice Option 1. Telling the Truth Refuse! Be Honest and Respectful Option 2. Keeping a Friend Mr. K, Do you like my new hairdo? Don't make the fool's choice! Dialogue and Filling the Pool of Shared Meaning "When it comes to risky, controversial, and emotional conversations, skilled people find a way to get all relevant information (from themselves and others) out into the open." (p. 23) The Pool of Shared Meaning is the Birthplace of Synergy. The best way to fix "us" is to start with "me." "Skilled people Start with Heart. That is, they begin high-risk discussions with the right motives, and they stay focused no matter what happens." p. 36 Don't resort to debate, silent treatment, manipulation, and so on.

The third signing to emerging label Mind Of A Genius, THEY. (Drew & Dante) caught attention with their debut EP 'Nu Religion' in October of last year. Gaining support from Beats 1's New York anchor Ebro, The Fader, BBC Radio 1 and more, THEY. are making their first inroads into 2016 with a 4 track remix package, that kicked off last week with their track "Bad Habits" remixed by Soulection member Esta. In creating a four track remix package for their EP, THEY. reached out to renowned production groups Soulection and Bromance, the results of which will be revealed over the coming weeks.
This week they reveal a new remix by LA Bred Producer AWAY (Alone With All of You). With deep-rooted influences in experimental rock and 90's electronica, AWAY's style is boundless. His focus is to create art that conveys emotion and a connection to a darker truth that most of us often suppress. A sonic fusion of similar artists like Flume and NIN, the AWAY sound is ripe to cut through the noisy indie/electronic music scene and make it's mark on 2016.
Buy "Motley Crue (AWAY Remix)" on iTunes
THEY. are Drew & Dante. The two were introduced in Los Angeles through Dante's production partner and best childhood friend 'Big Drew'. At the time, Dante was churning out beats in the studio with the elusive producer, and now label mate, ZHU, and Drew had just relocated to LA from Maryland in search of a like-minded writing partner.
In an effort to move away from pop production towards something more boundary pushing, Dante saw Drew as the his ideal collaborator. Without even knowing it, they formed a group. Influenced by the two-singer dynamic of Taking Back Sunday and the nursery rhyme simplicity of Kurt Cobain's lyrics, Drew and Dante meld their diverse musical backgrounds to create songs without boundaries that push forward the cultural needle. Melodically, Dante and Drew have a mutual admiration for late 80s gems such as Babyface and New Edition; "The Ralph" even features as one of Drew's many studio voices. The pair combine these influences with their own limitless and evolving sound to produce something that can't be placed into a box labeled 'Urban' and filed away.
In terms of their label affiliation, this came about in a true THEY. moment of serendipity – Dante ended up playing their tracks for Mind of a Genius founder, David Dann, as he was leaving the studio shared by all the artists. Two weeks later, the deal was penned. Four months later, the pair released their debut 'Nu Religion' EP. Look out for more from this duo throughout 2016.

For a limited time I am offering an astrology reading focusing on what is called the Part of Fortune. It is not an object, like a planet, but a place on your chart that tells you how to feel like "Good Fortune" is shining down on you. To some people this could me wealth and/or fame and recognition, to others it could represent your health or vitality. It it is also associated with love and happiness. The Part of Fortune focuses on this life and how you can experience success here, whatever that means to you.
The Part of Fortune is found using a specific formula from information about your natal Sun, Moon and Ascendent. Historically, these three were considered to be of equal importance.
When I calculated and interpreted my Part of Fortune, I was amazed at how spot on it is. Think of the Fortune as the "what" (Good Fortune). The sign signifies "how". For me (Pisces Fortune)' I am the type of person who is spiritual and mystical and will find happiness and success by focusing on "higher ideals". The house placement shows you "where". For me (7th House,) I am basically and idealist and see the best in people and situations. I am seeking person illumination and I find this as well as success through relationships with others.
This is me exactly! It completely matches my work, my success and my bliss.
The symbol for the Part of Fortune reminds me of the Balanced Cross symbol that is so much a part of my early "New Age" religion call the Church of World Messianity or the Johrei Fellowship. Here is that symbol which I wore on a golden pendent for decades.
Then I combine this with my natal Gemini (communicating) which rules my 10th House of career, it appears quite clear to me that my Part of Fortune is right on!
This led me to find the Part of Fortune for my family and friends and found them to be amazingly accurate also. This is so cool!
If you are not sure where your "fortune" lies, I highly recommend that you find out!
I am offering Part of Fortune Readings for only $49.00.
- Creating your natal/birth chart (if you don't have it already)
- Calculating your Part of Fortune
- Information about the sign and house of your Fortune and how they work together
- Interpreting any close planets and/or aspects to other planets
- Recorded 15 – 20 minute reading, including the mp3 download

When I first started boxing I sparred only with my trainer. His punches were tap, tap, taps on my face, to the body. Our rounds felt like lessons, not fights. He'd talk to me the whole time, offering encouragement and advice.
Then one day he put me in the ring with another woman.
We started off trading jabs, shuffling around the ring, feeling each other out. I moved in and threw a gentle jab, careful to hit the padded headgear, not her face. Seeing an opening, she stepped in with a hard right that landed between my eyes, stinging the bridge of my nose.
I blinked away tears.
"She HIT me," I thought, irrationally.
I wanted to put my hands over my head and crumple in a heap on the mat until I realized she was preparing to punch me again.
I slipped to the side and put my hands up. She caught me with a left hook. There was no escaping it: I was in a boxing ring and I was going to have to fight back.
I threw a jab, harder than I'd ever dared. It connected, and I felt the punch through my glove and up my arm. My sparring partner smiled under her headgear. While I stood still to admire my punch, she connected with another right cross.
"Hands up," my trainer yelled, "move!"
I snapped back into the moment and focused, trying to coordinate my hands and feet. I threw some left-right combinations, moving quickly after I punched to avoid her fists. She hit me with a solid body shot to my left side that reminded me to block my sides with my elbows. I hung in there, just barely, for the rest of the two-minute round. The bell rang and I collapsed forward my hands on my knees.
"I got hit," I thought.
And then, "And I hit back."
I thought of that first punch to the face when I saw a recent New York Times article, Why Women Aren't C.E.O.s, According to Women Who Almost Were. Only slightly more than six percent of chief executives of Fortune 500 companies are women, and one of the problems, the article states, is "most women are not socialized to be unapologetically competitive."
A woman who spent 30 years in Fortune 500 companies told this story:
"I got a guy his C-suite job," she recalled. "I'm sitting there at the C-suite table and he takes a massive swipe at me on my business: 'She's not doing this right.' I go down the hall, and I go to my friend and say, 'What the hell just happened?' And she said, 'Did you forget the boys play a 24/7 game of dodge ball? You just walked into the gym. You whip the ball, and if it happens to knock somebody on the head, so what?'
For women who were taught their whole lives to follow the rules, to be well-liked, to not interrupt, adjusting to the executive culture in the United States can be a challenge. Women in this situation have two choices: change the culture, or change themselves. Changing the culture is a long-term game, so the most immediate strategy is to find a way to play the game.
How do you overcome a lifetime of politeness training?
Many women are discovering building strength in the gym gives them strength in the boardroom. A gym full of barbells helps many women tap into that aggression, to practice being ruthless and competitive.
The Women's Strength Coalition, a group that combines activism and weight lifting, recently hosted a powerlifting competition in Brooklyn. There, women talked about how discovering their strength in the gym affected other areas of their lives.
Lara Hogan, 31, an engineering director at Etsy, has spent her whole career "in rooms full of dudes." But when she started powerlifting a year and a half ago, it shifted how she felt at work. "There's something about feeling physically strong in an intimidating room or a room where you're unsure," she said.
Another woman told the story of a man enlisting her help to move a heavy whiteboard in the midst of a high level executive meeting. After that moment, she said the dynamic in the room changed. Feeling her physical strength made her embrace her role as a leader, boosting her confidence.
Being confident and assertive is not about breaking rules or stepping on others on your way to the top. It's about knowing your worth, in owning your experience and intelligence. It's about openly disagreeing and standing your ground.
Getting hit in the face and then learning how to hit back changed how I felt about myself. If I could stand in a ring and hold my own, what else could I do?

African Vanielje on Jun 23 2009 at 8:15 am | Filed under: seasonal menus, slow cooking, vkcb
My version of cassoulet most closely resembles the one from Castlenaudary. This city tends towards the simplest (and my favourite) recipe of the dish famous in Toulouse and Carcassonne as well. The Languedoc lays claim to the dish, but some say it was the Arabs who brought the white haricot bean, and the first version of the dish that became cassoulet, to the region as long ago as the 7th century AD.
As in Castelnaudary, I make mine with pork rind/fat, pork sausage, garlic and beans as the main ingredients. I do sometimes use confit d'oie (goose or duck confit), but then I stick to a more traditional format. This time I've gone goose free and added a selection of garden veg and tomatoes instead.
If you are using dried beans you will need
- about 600g of white beans.
- Soak them overnight then discard the water.
- Put the beans in a large pot with 2 litres of water
- a large peeled onion with a clove embedded in it
- 2 whole peeled carrots
- 2 whole crushed garlic cloves
- a bay leaf
- 2 tomatoes, peeled and chopped
Bring to the boil and cook until the beans are tender (around 1 1/2 – 2 hours)
Alternatively, you can use a tin of organic haricot or kidney beans.
For the rest:
Soften 2 onions (chunkily chopped) in a little olive oil.
When they are translucent add 3 large cloves of garlic, 2 chopped and one whole. Allow to colour slightly.
Add 1/2 cup finely chopped celery, including the tender inner leaves, and soften
Add 1 large tin of whole peeled plum tomatoes, or 6 large peeled and seeded fresh tomatoes.
Add 2 large peeled and chopped carrots, or a small bunch of baby carrots (these you can leave unpeeled)
A bouguet garni or a couple of fresh bay leaves would be good now too.
Add your cooked or tinned (drained ) beans in a layer on top and season generously.
Top up with 2 cups of boiling water, bring the whole mix to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 1 1/2 – 2 hours.
Rub an oven proof casserole dish with a clove of garlic, then
Add 4-6 fresh pork sausages and allow to brown.
Add the rest of your ingredients to the pot, with a touch more water if you feel it is necessary.
Put a lid on your pot and cook in the oven on low heat (around 120*C) for a further hour – 1 1/2 hours, checking and stirring occasionally.
Serve with fresh chopped herbs and plenty of fresh ground sea salt and pepper.
2 Responses to "My most often made version of cassoulet – or homemade pork sausage, garden veg and beans"
I DO love cassoulet. I often put duck confit in mine… But, frankly, I'd be happy with just a bit of pork for flavor and all the beans (and garlic, etc…)

The one week trial of ignoring the bells in our class has concluded, with mixed success. On the first day, the freedom went to their heads and I was really surprised with the lack of maturity and focus on their learning. The lesson was learned by most in time for the second day, but a new problem arose – we were distracting other classes from their work. Following a stern chat from the Principal children lowered the noise level when taking their break during other class' learning time. Crisis averted!
The rest of the week continued with no restrictions on the lengeth or frequency of breaks children had. As long as they attended group and class meetings, they were free to come and go as they saw fit. It's been an intriguing experiment!
This afternoon, we reflected on the week. Everyone finished on time and to the required standard but how was their learning effected? The purpose of the trial was to improve their learning capabilities so I asked was their learning improved, the same or worse this week? If it was worse, did they still want to have no bells next week? And, if so, how would they make improvements to ensure their learning was improved by the flexibility of be allowed to ignore the bells? The following are the responses I received:
- I had too much freedom and didn't use my time well. Next time I won't take advantage of all the freedom. I know how to use the time more wisely now – Nathan, Jasmine, Boston, Jack, Margaret and Nicole.
- I got more tired so next time I'll take shorter breaks – Isabella.
- I forgot what I was doing when I returned from a break so I'll keep working at a task until I'm finished, before I take a break – Louie.
- All students whose learning was adversely effected – after the initial difficulties, we improved and used the time more wisely later on in the week.
- The breaks we have are at the right time and are the right length anyway – Angel.
- I managed my time the same way and as well as usual. I learned everything as well as I normally would – Rikka, Akanshi and Carlos.
- I became more independent as a result of this – Liam.
- I was able to limit my break times, I'm not sure we need so many breaks – Erika.
- I could go outside and clear my mind when the work got tricky – Emily and Jessie.
- I gave myself a little reward after finishing tricky things – Mia.
- I stressed out less – India, Dylan and Jessie.
- I got to exercise more often, which got my brain working better – Chester and Liam.
- I didn't get hungry and therefore I concentrated better – Kerry.
- There was more choice in how I arranged my day. If felt more grown up – Dylan.
- I managed my time better – Dylan.
- You could keep going on a task if it was going well – Callum.
End result? It looks like this is the way Room 3 could operate from now on. Exciting stuff!

A naked swimmer played a game of cat-and-mouse with law enforcement officials on Tempe Town Lake for more than an hour Wednesday before divers from the Tempe Fire Department jumped in and captured him.
Jeffrey Glover of the Tempe Police Department said Chris Brown, 38, appeared to be impaired and jumped into the lake from one of two bridges spanning the man-made lake on the Salt River just before 11:15 a.m. He was dragged onto a police boat just before 12:30 p.m.
Glover emphasized Brown jumped into the water on his own accord.
Brown was able to elude police for at least 45 minutes and actually crossed under a string of buoys leading to the rubberized dam on the west end of the lake.
Rescue officials said that because the man was impaired and combative, their strategy was to stay close and wait for him to fatigue a bit before going in after him.
Police disconnected the buoys and followed him, where he was eventually subdued after a struggle with officers and firefighters.
News helicopter footage showed Brown purposely eluding capture by two boats carrying officers trying to pull him from the water.
Police said Brown was showing no signs of distress and did not ask to be pulled from the lake.
Brown faces a number of charges, including indecent exposure and possessing drug paraphernalia. Officers said they found hypodermic needles near his clothing.

"Depending on the specialty, physicians are experiencing both increased and decreased need for their specialty. However, increased demand may not result in increased provision of services in a timely fashion if access to resources such as hospital beds is viewed as less than optimal; this will not only vary by specialty but by province as well."
Demand for Physicians and their Services (C3PR, June, 2014, PDF)
"Improvements to motivate rural FPs include opportunities for CPD, availability of locums, reasonable workload, access to hospital facilities/services, ability to reduce on-call duties, and more multidisciplinary support."
2014 CAHSPR – Employment Issues Among Rural Family Physicians in Canada (2014, May, PDF)
"Similarities between GCMS and IMGs who have been licensed in Canada for at least 8 years were seen with respect to location, percentage who were FPs, plans to relocate and professional satisfaction. Significant differences occurred between Canadian graduates and those more recently licensed IMGs. Here there is a clear difference in work hours, location, future plans and satisfaction. As a group, they seem less settled and content in terms of their practice setting and career fulfillment."

"Physicians in an IP practice reported greater satisfaction with access to most health care professionals and clinical resources than those in a solo or group practice. Better access could mean shorter waiting times for patients. The Patient's Medical Home model promotes interprofessional teams delivering patient-centred care for all Canadians."
2014 Taming of the Queue – Impact of Interprofessional Practice on Physician Access to Resources and Patient Waiting Times (2014, March, PDF)
"We continue to see heavier workloads among rural physicians with them typically being on-call over 3 days per month more than their more urban colleagues. It is equally interesting to note, however, the similarities in accessing services and providers where it is often assumed the challenges will be greater in the more bucolic areas of Canada. They have embraced electronic health records to the same extent and over half of both groups say it has increased the productivity of their practice."

Cannes 2017: You Were Never Really Here, review: an experience fully capable of blowing you away
What an amazing beautiful Cannes Film Festival it was, from the Photocall, Press Conference (see side videos, Joaquin was so lovely) to the stunning Red Carpet. Joaquin's beautiful suit was tailored by Stella McCartney, he had the support of his lovely publicist Sue, his sisters Rain and Summer and his special beautiful friend Rooney Mara. Joaquin in turn was extraordinary in his support of Lynne Ramsay. The whole thing was simply gorgeous and we as fans could have asked for nothing more (although we would love the film to win).
Don't forget to check out the gallery for the many many photos from past few days. http://joaquinphoenixdarkroom.com/index.php
Dir: Lynne Ramsay, Starring: Joaquin Phoenix, Ekaterina Samsonov, Alex Manette, John Doman, Judith Roberts. Cert tbc, 85 mins
In a Cannes of numerous feel-bad mission statements, Lynne Ramsay's You Were Never Really Here is the feel-worst. The film drop-kicks you into a cosmos of pain, depravity and blunt-force trauma with only the faintest flickers of light at the end of the tunnel. It's not an experience to relish, exactly, but it's still one that's fully capable of blowing you away.
The Scottish director begins this, her first film since We Need to Talk About Kevin in 2011, as she means to continue: with a series of swift, disorienting images, initially in a Cincinnati motel room. We see a bloodied hammer, the burning photo of a young Asian girl, polythene over a smoke alarm. And a man's head, breathing in and out, inside a plastic bag. This is Joe (Joaquin Phoenix, with an unruly grey beard), and in the first proper look we get at him, he has completed whatever the hell his hideous business has been, and emerges, hoodie up, into a side alley.
Joe rescues children from sex rings. He is hired to do so, not by the authorities, but private clients – typically the parents of teenagers who have gone missing, and who entrust him to do this vastly unpleasant job with speed, finesse and a willingness to bludgeon the perpetrators beyond repair.
The film's body count is somewhere in the Chuck Norris vicinity, but Ramsay is far too serious a filmmaker to dwell on Joe's brutal modes of dispatch. She and her editor, Joe Bini, find an amazing array of methods to conjure and intimate violence without lingering upon it: the film is a sustained masterclass in ghoulishness-avoidance.
In Phoenix, Ramsay has a major ally in staking her case for bleak psychological artistry. Weighed down with the horrific ballast of things he has suffered and seen – he's a Gulf War veteran and former FBI agent, too, with the scars to prove it – Joe comes to life in an almost gruellingly subtle and interiorised performance, up there with Phoenix's very best work for James Gray or Paul Thomas Anderson.
The one person in Joe's life with whom he has anything other than a strictly professional relationship – counting all the ones that last mere seconds, ending with a thwack – is his mother, played by a little-known but tremendous actress called Judith Roberts. She's in the pronounced stages of dementia, living in a messy Queens home to which he retreats between jobs. "This cream cheese is from 1972," he quips exasperatedly, on scouring the fridge. Evidence is scant for his sense of humour, but there it is.
No praise could be high enough for Ramsay's insidious sound design and use of background music in the film, which deploys doo-wop ballads on the radio with haunting, rather than thumping, irony, and features a mumbled singalong to Charlene's "I've Never Been to Me" that will go down in legend: the hand that tenderly clasps Phoenix's during this bizarrely romantic interlude is about the last one you'd ever matchmake him with. Meanwhile, even by his own unbeatable standards of film work, Jonny Greenwood's score is a deadly engine of threat and anguish, chugging away with agitated synth percussion and moaning little hints of jazzy 1970s sleaze.
Ramsay never tosses in these references for mere fun and games – obliquely meta, they're all part of her strategy to render Joe as a rich cinematic composite, an uber-character. Misread as a pure genre exercise, this would all be leading us to the threshold of bloody release – and indeed, the last half-hour is an extrapolation from the story entirely of Ramsay's own devising. But she shows us less and less, banning catharsis with stern slices of the editing shears, and her analysis of revenge turns out to be exacting and remarkable. The complexity of Phoenix's art is such that he can howl inwardly for stolen retribution and simultaneously feel the full horror of a young girl's undoing, with gasps of incredulous laughter straight from the gallows.

DIY necklace holder
I've always loved to do all kinds of DIY's. It's so much nicer to have something that you've put effort into and made it look like you, rather than just buying it ready from a store. Usually it's much cheaper too! So now I thought I'd start incorporating some DIY posts in my blog too. Hope you will enjoy!I'm a little bit obsessed about organizing stuff, especially when it comes to my clothes and accessories. I love to have everything showing and accessible, so it's easy to put outfits together. I didn't really have a proper way to store my necklaces yet, and that's why I often forgot to wear them or was too lazy to look for one. I wanted them all hanged on the wall, but the holder needed to be portable. So I bought this big 50cm x 50cm picture frame from Ikea and made it into my necklace holder.Things you will need for this DIY: Big picture frame, adhesive paper, wood planks(+ a saw), nails, a hammer, glue, pencil and a tape measure (Helper cat optional)
I started by planning with a pencil where I would want the nails to be. It helps to gather all your necklaces and to see what length they are to determine their places. After this I just took the measurements down on a piece of paper since your marks are going to be covered later.Start by coating the inside of the frame with the adhesive paper or a fabric of your choice. I chose this white and grey marble print. Decide how many rows on necklaces you want to hang and saw as many wood planks the same length as the inside of the frame. Glue the wood planks in the back of where you want the necklaces to be hanging. Before this you could hammer a couple of nails inside the highest plank for hanging like I did. Hammer all the nails where your necklaces will be hanged. Be sure to only hammer into spots where the wood planks are.Finally add your frame and some iron wire for hanging. Your necklace holder is finished!I really love how this turned out! Now I can finally see all my necklaces. 🙂

Sylvania Community Services Center, Inc. (SCS for short), a 501(c) (3) non-profit has served the Sylvania community since 1976, when it was formed by the City, Township, and School Board. In that time it has made an impact on the lives of thousands of residents – young and old. It was originally housed in the Burnham Building and was closely identified with that location. At one time the reference to "Burnham" was synonymous with Child Care in Sylvania. And lower level rooms were used as the senior center. Now, we are disbursed through the community with an award winning, nationally accredited Senior Center that serves 250+ older residents a day, and seven state-licensed Child Care locations that serve 300 children per day.
SCS itself is the legal entity charged with operating these programs for children and seniors, providing administrative oversight, collecting funding from the Senior Center levy and other public sources, accepting in-kind support, managing personnel, and planning and directing policy.

Market Commentary: Markets Gap Down On Continuing Emerging Market Worries
January 29th, 2014
in Gary's blogging, market open
Written by Gary
Opening Market Commentary For 01-29-2014
The after markets climbed higher (+0.15%) and fell on the opening of the premarkets this morning where the SP500 futures were down almost a point.
Markets gaped down on the opening (-0.80%) and the $VIX shot up to 17.84 in the first minutes of the opening bell. The US dollar fell 0.38 cents, the WTI oil fell over a point and gold rose over 18 points.
By 10 am the averages had recovered +0.20% of the premarket decline but didn't especially strong as the SP500 approaches the 1773 support.
These emerging market players are not the Black Swan scenarios I have written about, but goes to show you that this 'House of Cards' the Fed built is on, and has been, on shaky ground and it wouldn't take much to make it crumble. Some folks are going to get hurt playing this casino market - very scary at times. However having said that, I see today's decline more of a shot across the bow, a warning if you will, of worse things to come on the horizon.
Interesting statistics on Presidential State of the Union address on the markets the next day.
Which president did the Dow like best on the day after the State of the Union?
The State of the Union speech typically has a minimal impact on markets. And it only has fleeting effects on specific market sectors, as Bill Watts notes here.
However, markets do pay attention for shifts in tone on economic issues, and the state of Washington's dysfunction.
Looking back to the beginning of the Kennedy administration the Dow Jones Industrial Average has averaged a decline of 0.03% on the next trading day after the big speech.
Since 1961, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has averaged a gain of 0.0026% on days after a Republican address and a loss of 0.07% on trading days after a Democrat address.
Monday's news, but it is the thought that counts and definitely someone to watch.
Equities sell off continues despite positive remarks from FOMC member Narayana Kocherlakota
The sell-off in global equities persisted on Monday, with the S&P dropping by another 0.49% as investors continued to trim long-exposure to high-yielding assets after new homes sales in the US for November came in on the soggy side of expectations.
Equities reacted positively to comments from FOMC voting member and President of the Minneapolis Fed, Narayana Kocherlakota, when he stated the Fed should do more to stimulate the economy as unemployment remains at elevated levels, but faded into the close as stocks were unable to sustain the rebound. Read the rest of the article Equities sell off continues despite positive remarks from FOMC member Narayana Kocherlakota
The short term indicators are leaning towards the hold (buy if you are brave) side at the opening, but I would advise caution in taking any position during this volatile transition period. There will be pressure to climb higher if only to test the previous Blue Chip highs, therefore I do not foresee the markets descending below the sideways channel they are currently in until AFTER those highs are tested. (NOTE: The sideways channel downside has been penetrated and that technical theory has to be thrown out the window, but will it go below the next support at (SP500) 1773 and close there? Below that and we could be in a serious correction mode and all bets are off. More likely we will start another sideways channel between the 2 SP500 supports of ~1809 and ~1773.
Got to watch out for these overnight negative World news announcements which many are rumors and make sure you have stops in place if you are not in a position to monitor the markets.
The longer 6 month outlook still remains 40-60 sell until we can see what the effects are in this almost nothing start of the Fed's 'Taper'. By March investors should know how the taper is going to work out in relationship to the stability of the US financial markets and their ability to not to slide downward. For now, I am continuing to expect weak to negative markets for the foreseeable future.
The Best Stock Market Indicator Update says the market is untradable.
Here is the quandary some investors have now. They have bet on the QE program to bolster their profits and knowing full well they may see some eroding of profits over the next few months, so what should they do? Start reducing positions now, my choice, or let profits ride a bit longer? What I am afraid of is that if a serious 'Black Swan' pops up, the market decent would wipe out a lot of profits. This 'house of cards' the Fed has built is fragile and would not take a lot to tear it down.
Again, I would also take chart and other technical indicators with a grain of salt for the time being and watch what the Fed does over the next 4 months. Removing 10 billion from the bond buying program each month isn't going to do much in reducing the QE program in the beginning, but halving it in 4 months certainly will - IF - the Fed's continues the taper program. (Note: It will be interesting if the Feds take out another 10b on top of the proposed 10b for this FMOC meeting.)
My instincts tell me that the Keynesian's are going to be reluctant to stop their grand financial experiment and will want to taper the taper within the next several months - especially if the employment rate increases. Also, watch for QE5 when Obamacare starts drags the economy down into trouble in 2015.
Also, many pundits have stated that we may have seen the top - but I wouldn't count it as long as the Fed continues to hand out 'Market Viagra', even if it has been reduced somewhat! I would like to see a blowout candle (shooting star) to verify a top along with heavy volume to signify a market top.

james taylor
for most of his life, james taylor grew up feeling pains of sadness that cathartically developed into his famous lyrics. in 1968, after recording for the beatle's apple label and returning from london, james spent some time in a massachusetts mental instituition for depression and substance abuse. there he met a girl named susanne who he really loved and shared so many interests with creating a special friendship. a few months later, james left the hospital to go back to recording and his friends found out susanne had committed suicide. they didn't want to tell him, afraid he would relapse and escape to drastic measures to get away from the reality so they waited until he finished his album to break the news. at the age of 22, inside a battle with drug addiction and new loss of a friend, james taylor wrote the song *fire and rain* which was released in 1970 on his second album sweet baby james and went on to bring him wide-spread attention everywhere.
just yesterday morning…
they let me know you were gone
susanne, the plans they made
put an end to you
i walked out this morning
and i wrote down this song
i just can't remember who to send it to
ive seen fire and ive seen rain
ive seen sunny days that i thought would never end
ive seen lonely times when i could not find a friend
but i always thought that i'd see you again
go to scatter o' light to enjoy some james taylor live.

Graymoor-Devondale, Kentucky has a gripping yet glamorous history. Way back before these locals even marked on the calendar, this community was finding terrific, legitimate means to satisfy the hungry masses.
The astute pioneers to Kentucky were nothing like glib celebrities such as Kim Kardashian. Life was a feat of strength and they were assertive enough to accept the hard tasks ahead. In the evening when the work was done, friends and the whole squad gathered around to feast on whatever they could.
Recently, honest gluttons are required to try the delectable, local foods which were created in Kentucky. Does everyone laud how merry this life can be in Graymoor-Devondale, Kentucky? There is so much joy when it comes to grub.
Kentuckians suppose that explorers to Kentucky should first venture to the aged canteens and watering holes and sample their hip burgers, fries, steaks or chops. It is the best way to fathom the true vibe of the town and its unflappable cooks. A handful of the pubs and canteens might be considered neighborhood dives which have served the same classics for decades. We also showcase contemporary pubs and canteens which are equally esteemed.
Satisfyingly, premium products like briskets, ribs and fish skewers tend to be made from scratch, just like grandma's old-fashioned recipe book recommends. Quite feasibly, no other village in the Commonwealth comes close to the perfect blend of tradition and creativity which the citizens enjoy here.
This is a curation of the finest lounges for gluttons who want to chew over the gastronomy of the Commonwealth. If we had to recommend a single restaurant, number four on the list is a great place. Enjoy the outdated traditions of Kentucky before they are gone forever.

Hi Meshuga.
The settings for the router (number to dial, user name, password) will be held within the router itself and not within Windows. I think you will find the same applies for your existing modem. That being the case, each will be unaffected by anything you do with the other.
I assume that you're getting the router in order to network more than one PC for your internet connection. This being the case, a quick word of caution. Normally networking two PC's requires a crossover cable between them. Networking two PCs to the router requires a straight cable between each and the modem. You will find that one is supplied with the router - make sure you get the correct type for the second PC.
Also, check that your first PC connects to the Internet before attempting to connect the second - you'll find it easier to trace problems that way.

I always thought the idea of "Christmas In July" was merely a marketing tool to get people to bust out their wallets months ahead of the Christmas holiday. But after talking to a friend about a "Christmas In July" house party crawl they're taking part in this month (so awesome!), I realized that the idea of "Christmas In July" extends far beyond premature holiday shopping. In fact, it's down right boozy.
I absolutely love, love, love holiday cocktails. They're just so rich, decadent, and cheery! So, the idea of taking a break from your standard summer cocktails for a dessert-y, holiday-inspired drank is super enticing to me. And to help you celebrate "Christmas In July," I've added the recipe to my Minty Hot Chocolate Shooters, and a handful of other holiday-heavy cocktails. Cheers!
Minty Hot Chocolate Shooters (Pictured Above)
2 oz. Smirnoff Peppermint Twist
1 Cup Cooled Hot Chocolate
Whipped Cream
Crushed Peppermint
Prepare hot chocolate. Allow time to cool. Pour cooled, hot chocolate in a shaker with ice. Pour Smirnoff Peppermint Twist into shaker. Shake and strain into shot glasses. Top with whipped cream and crushed peppermint. (Should fill approximately six shot glasses)
Holiday Horchata
1 part Hornitos Plata Tequila
½ part coconut water
½ part almond milk
Add all ingredients to a shaker over ice to chill. Shake, strain and pour into a shot glass rimmed with cinnamon and sugar.


text: I recently found out that I made a mistake not getting my wife on Medicare part B when I retired. She had a brain aneurism several years ago, that disability allowed her to get a SSD check. I was able to sign off on taking out the part B at that time. Unknown to me I was to sign her up for this I now find out three years after I retired there is a penalty coming, 10% per year, along with now I find out she has no primary insurance until July 1, when Medicare kicks in. I cannot believe I was not informed about this somehow by UPS when I retired. Has anyone been able to work anything out in a case like this?
