Comments: James Fletcher (Nee: ) | Ottawa Canada | 1901-1920 | Comments: This picture of James Fletcher appears on page 306 of The Canadian Horticulturist, vol.XXVI, no.8, August 1903. There is a biographical sketch of him on pages 306-307 of that volume. Please see that reference for more details. Fletcher was born in England and at some point moved to Canada. He lived in Ottawa and was an entomologist for Dominion Experimental Farms. That is all the information I have on this picture. I am not researching this line, just saw the photo and thought I'd post it.

Board favors new pre-k-12 school
The Moose Lake School Board favored a new pre-kindergarten–12 school building on its property along County Road 10 when options were presented by two representatives of ICS Consulting at a special meeting on Tuesday, December 18.
Gary Benson and Pat Overom of ICS provided information to the board about the various options.
The cost estimates for a school for grades 7–12 without an auditorium was $20,171,000, and with an auditorium at $23,840,000.
For a building for an entire new school, pre-kindergarten through 12, the cost estimate was $31,530,000.
The board also asked for cost estimates to build a new high school in the current location. Those cost estimates were not available at the meeting. However, the board did not favor building on the current site. The Minnesota Department of Education would allow construction on the current site, even though it doesn't meet current standards for property for the number of students.
Superintendent Robert Indihar pointed out that it would cost an additional $250,000 per year if there was a split campus, with the elementary and high school in separate locations.
"We would have to split the services of a nurse, a DCD teacher and a music teacher," he said.
It was discovered, in reviewing the numbers, that the state does provide equity aid. A higher amount of aid would be available for a costlier building project.
"For example," said Supt. Indihar in a telephone interview, "if we have a $20 million project, the state would kick in $2 million. If we have a $30 million project, the state may kick in $6 million in equity aid. It's a complicated formula; those figures are just examples. It was a total surprise to find out that equity aid was available."
He added that the board was leaning heavily toward a complete new school for $32-33 million on the property along County Road 10 on the south end of the city.
The board also discussed replacing the bus garage, removing the high school portion of the current building so it doesn't become an eyesore if a new school is approved and built, and adding rooms in the new school for services such as child care.
Supt. Indihar pointed out that the climate for the sale of bonds and construction is very favorable at this time.
"The price for bonds is significantly less than six years ago," he said. "Along with low interest rates, construction prices are reasonable.
"We feel that a pre-kindergarten–12 is the way to go, and that this project will be cost effective."
The board will continue to review the options. Another meeting with representatives of ICS Consulting will be held January 8 at 6 p.m. in the board room.
Then the board will turn the proposal over to the task force, made up of representatives of the community, for further review and to bring back a recommendation. The first task force meeting was set for January 10 at 7 p.m.
After the task force brings back a recommendation to the board and the board acts on the recommendation, the information will be passed to the Vote "Yes" committee.
The information will be presented to the public through various media sources and in community meetings before the proposal will be presented to the voters in a bond referendum election in May 2013.
If the bond referendum is approved by the voters, the new school could be constructed and ready for the 2015-2016 school year.

Liberty Watch has been vocal for several years on transparency issues within the school district, particularly with respect to the annual budget and bargaining units, but this is the first time they've circulated a petition to push for change.
"This is the first time we have formally said 'these are the policies we'd like you to adopt,'" the group's director, Loveland resident Nancy Rumfelt said. "It's simply a matter that it needs to be more open so that everyone knows what's going on."
Among bulleted points of the petition, Liberty Watch is asking that all negotiations with labor unions be open to the public so that all stakeholders can observe and understand the details of all contracts and memorandums of understanding.
The petition also asks the board to adopt a policy of teachers paying their union dues directly and a policy that the district will not pay any compensation to the union president. They're also asking for a more transparent budget process overall, to allow all stakeholders an opportunity to review, submit questions or object to the proposal and receive responses prior to the budget's adoption.
More than 180 people have signed the petition.
"Overall, you can really tell that people want things to be more open, while no one has an issue with the teachers at all. From what we're hearing from people, they feel like the union gets in the way of making real change happen," Rumfelt said. "We're asking the board to at least respect the wishes of the community and put it on the February agenda."
Board of education president Sharon Olson said she has not seen the petition and while it's still early in the budget process, there haven't been any discussions about possible changes to union-related policies.
"We couldn't change some of those things because we are contractually obligated anyway," Olson said. "We wouldn't be able to bring those up until the contract is done."
Liberty Watch has requested that the board place the policy changes on their Feb. 20 meeting for adoption, though Superintendent Stan Scheer believes that's a bit premature for the board to consider and implement such changes.
Scheer said any changes to negotiations would be the decision of the board, though as the budget process progresses, he does expect there will be closed-door executive sessions.
"As we process some things with labor negotiations, the board will need to take time to talk about those things and I'm not going to apologize for that," he said.
Liberty Watch has collected signatures since Jan. 6, posting outside the Larimer County building and circulating the petition online at libertywatch.info.
Also on tonight's agenda, the board will discuss preliminary district enrollment projections for 2013-14 and possible amendments to the 2012-13 budget.
The board will meet at 6 p.m. tonight in the district offices, 800 S. Taft Ave.

I keep hearing people say that Newt Gingrich is "smart ." I disagree.
Intelligence is something we all have, and there are multiple types of intelligence. Academic, artistic, physical, emotional, social. Piaget defined intelligence as the ability to adapt to changing circumstances. Some define smart by the number on an IQ test, even though the best correlation of both IQ and academic performance is family income. Spitting out fact after fact, whether true or not, is not smart. Other psychologists talk about emotional IQ, an important ingredient of being smart. So there are as many definitions as there are "experts." Each of us is smart in our own way. Like in nature, we are different. Diversity leads to evolution. And growth.
Some children, for many reasons, don't learn this. Parents who dote on them no matter what they do, false pride, inferiority masked, and others. Most learn, as they mature, that they are not the king of the hill. Others count, too, and are also smart. But some don't ever learn this at all. They become adults we call megalomaniacs, their ego larger than any ego should be. And this is not smart.
This is how I see Newt Gingrich. Even if I overlook his past "indiscretions," his absolutely bizarre statements, his nefarious callousness toward children and the poor, I would be frightened to have him as a leader because of his egomania. His belief that everything he thinks is right, and what others think is wrong is not productive to good government. He slides in and out of criticism with his verbal skills, and in this world where leaders need to understand other ways and other countries, this is a frightening prospect. A leader who can only communicate with himself. Who has stated we could just eliminate those who we don't like. So why is he riding the recent wave of popularity? I think it is because some people are so filled with fear of change that they want an attack dog. When Obama came to office with the idea of hope and change, those who don't want change began their attack. As he tries to dig us out of a mess he didn't create, they attack more. No matter what he does, they will attack. If he walked on water, they would want him to swim. Then along comes Newt. Just what they wanted. A verbal volcano, spewing negativity in rhetoric couched as campaigning.
Romney has problems, but not the same kind. He is a smart businessman, and managed to make himself super rich by taking over companies when he ran Bain Capital. He got rid of so many jobs, or sent them overseas, because that is what a smart businessman does. He focuses on profit. Not people. The fact that he can't seem to make up his mind on any issue, and says whatever he thinks people want to hear is not as troublesome as his social ineptness. He is not smart in a social sense. And a leader needs to be. I think this is why he just can't get above 35 percent or so. He just can't connect to voters. His jokes fall flatter than pancakes.
The voters of South Carolina will have a chance to vote for one of these men in the primary. Or Santorum, who wants to invade Iran. Not smart. Because it is an open primary, everyone can vote. I thought about it. But I can't bring myself to vote for someone I think would be a total disaster for our country. Even though all the taxpayers of South Carolina had to pay for this primary. Like it or not.
The Greeks knew all about hubris. For Gingrich, will pride goeth before a fall?

Three Decades of HIV/AIDS, Part Two
Now the deadly disease had a face.
Rock Hudson revealed he had AIDS and died less than three months later. The fear of this yet-to-be-understood killer suddenly could be seen and felt everywhere. A Life Magazine cover story raised awareness in the heterosexual community for the first time.
The title "Now No One Is Safe From AIDS" is fascinating, as it implied to the straight community that it was somehow safe prior to Rock Hudson's death.
The increased awareness of HIV/AIDS quickly led to irrational fear.
By 1985 there were 15,948 cases of AIDS and 8,161 AIDS deaths. Ryan White, a youngster who contracted HIV from a tainted blood product used to treat hemophilia, was barred from attending public school.
AIDS hysteria flared dramatically across the country.
In pop culture Hollywood's Screen Actors Guild announced that open-mouth kissing was "a possible health hazard" and the general population quickly internalized this unwarranted fear.
It's interesting to note that to this day the "can I contract HIV/AIDS from kissing" question continues to be a QTND (question that never dies) in the Safe Sex and HIV Prevention expert forum on this Web site.
Rocker Sebastian Bach wore a shirt in concert asserting that "AIDS Kills Fags Dead."
Bob Frascino, M.D., was President and Founder of The Robert James Frascino AIDS Foundation. He had been an outspoken, popular expert in TheBody.com's "Ask the Experts" forums on safe sex and fatigue/anemia since 2000. Once a Fellow of the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology, and the American Academy of Pediatrics, Dr. Frascino served as Associate Clinical Professor of Medicine, Division of Immunology, Rheumatology, and Allergy, at Stanford University Medical Center from 1983 until 2001. He was a member of the American Academy of HIV Medicine and had also been a distinguished member of the executive boards of numerous state and regional associations.
We're inexpressibly saddened to share the news that Dr. Frascino passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, Sept. 17, 2011. Click here to read more and to share your thoughts.

How to Build Accountability in Fragile States? Some Lessons (and 2 New Jobs) from an Innovative Governance Programme
One of my favourite Oxfam programmes is called (rather arcanely) 'Within and Without the State'(WWS). It is trying to build civil society and good governance in some pretty unpromising environments – Yemen, South Sudan, Afghanistan and OPTI (Occupied Palestinian Territory and Israel).
It's currently advertising two new jobs (one on learning and communications, the other a programme coordinator), if you're interested.
WWS recently published some crisply-written initial findings on governance and fragility. They echo the work of Matt Andrews and others on how institutional change happens.
Here's a few highlights:

As the administrator of the ProGen Study Groups I guess it is time that I write about them for this blog.
The ProGen Study Program is organized for participants to study Professional Genealogy: A Manual for Researchers, Writers, Editors, Lecturers and Librarians, edited by Elizabeth Shown Mills (Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Company, 2001). The goal of the program is to help participants develop professional research, writing and business skills.
The ProGen study groups are made up of professional genealogists, individuals working to become professional genealogists, and other serious researchers who want to conduct professional level research. Each ProGen group has a coordinator who manages the group, and a BCG certified genealogist who participates as a mentor. It takes many volunteer leaders working together to make this program successful.
Key Elements of the ProGen Study Program:
- Quality textbook written by experts in the field
- Guidance from a BCG Certified Genealogist
- In-depth study and application of each topic
- Peer review of monthly assignments
- Live interaction through online discussions
- Joint focus on business development and research practices
The study groups are based on a cooperative learning model where everyone works together. Members are expected to be dedicated to the program and make their group a positive learning experience. They are accountable to complete monthly assignments, participate in online group discussions, and provide feedback on the work of others in their group.
Each month group members study one or two chapters and then work on a written assignment on the topic. These assignments are designed to refine skills such as writing research plans, analyzing evidence, transcribing documents, writing research reports and formulating proof arguments. On the business side, participants write a mission statement, contract, business plan and marketing plan. For many professional genealogists this is the first time they have taken time to plan out their business strategy.
In order to study all 29 chapters of Professional Genealogy, the program takes 19 months to complete. This is a long program, and takes dedication on the part of each participant.
Many participants in the ProGen Study Groups also take advantage of other educational opportunities and meet together at genealogical institutes and conferences. This is an opportunity to meet "online friends" in person and network with colleagues from other ProGen study groups. See ProGen events for more information on upcoming gatherings and photos of past events.
Once participants have completed the ProGen Study Program they are included on the alumni page of the website. These individuals have shown a dedication to improving their skills, and a commitment to complete the 19 month program. They have given constructive feedback to their colleagues and continue to network with other genealogy professionals. Feel free to use the alumni list when you are in need of a researcher.
The first ProGen study group was organized in March 2008 by Lee Anders and a group of enthusiastic genealogists. We wanted to go beyond "reading" Professional Genealogy, and take the time to really study and apply each concept.
As others heard about our study group and asked to participate, additional ProGen study groups were formed. I stepped up as administrator of the ProGen Study Program in November 2008. The program continues to grow and gain recognition, and we now have eleven ProGen study groups with over 250 participants from five countries.
If you are interested in participating in the ProGen Study Program, please visit the waiting list page to learn of the commitment involved, background experience required,and detailed instructions.

Prospects Weekly: Private capital flows to developing countries eased in October
|Private capital flows to developing countries eased in October, but remain close to their highest level in more than a year, led by robust bond issuance by emerging market sovereigns and firms. Business sentiment has strengthened in some countries, including the US and several emerging markets, but remains weak in general amid US "fiscal cliff" and Euro Area risks.

The following are updates on local baseball players at the minor league level.
Christian Bergman (St. Francis High, 2006) starting pitcher, Modesto Nuts: For the first time since 2004, the Nuts earned a trip to the California League Championship Series after they captured the league's North Division title by defeating San Jose in a best two-out-of-three series and taking down the Bakersfield Blaze in a three-out-of-five affair.
Bergman, of course, had a big part to play in getting Modesto there. He finished the regular season as the league's pitcher of the year after he went 16-5 with a 3.65 earned-run average in 162 2/3 innings this season.
The former Golden Knight has kept up his pace in the postseason. He picked up a win and a loss in two appearances — one start and one in relief — that spanned 12 innings. He's struck out 14 and given up just eight hits and two walks in the playoffs.
Bergman first pitched seven innings of three-run ball — two earned — in the California League North Division playoff opener against the San Jose Giants in the series opener Sept. 5. The Nuts couldn't save Bergman, who struck out nine, gave up six hits and one walk, from the loss, 3-1. It was his first loss since June 16.
Modesto, which finished second in the North Division in the regular season with a 73-67 record, bounced back and won the next two games in the best-of-three to move on and face the Bakersfield Blaze in the California League North Division Finals. Bergman's only appearance in the series came in relief Monday to start the fifth inning with Modesto leading 6-1.
Bergman picked up the win, 12-1, in dominating fashion, as he pitched the final five innings and struck out five, walked one and gave up two hits to pull Modesto within a game of the of the Blaze, who led the series 2-1 at that point.
The Nuts completed the comeback in the best-of-five set with 3-2 and 6-2 wins on Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively, to send them to the league finals against the Lancaster Jethawks.
Bergman has yet to appear in the league finals, which were set to continue Saturday at 7 p.m. After dropping the first two games of the series, the Nuts will need to win out in the final three games to capture the Pioneer League title.
Doug Slaten (Glendale Community College, 1999) relief pitcher, Indianapolis Indians: Slaten finished off his 2012 season with the Indians, the triple-A affiliate of the Pittsburgh Pirates, with three spotless one-inning relief appearances.
The former Vaquero didn't allow a baserunner in his final regular season appearance Sept. 1 in a 8-4 win over the Toledo Mud Hens to finish the regular season with a 3-3 record, 2.11 ERA and 40 appearances. Slaten gave up 30 hits, 13 walks and struck out 24 batters through 42 2/3 innings.
Slaten had two more perfect relief appearances in the International League playoffs. Indianapolis, which won the league's West Division with an 89-55 record, opened the postseason with the Charlotte Knights.
Slaten didn't allow a hit or walk for a perfect ninth inning in the Indians' 14-13 loss to the Knights in the second game of the best-of-five series Sept. 6. He also pitched a spotless seventh with two strikeouts in Indianapolis' final game of the season — a 6-4 loss to the Knights on Sept. 8.
Joe De Pinto (St. Francis High, 2007) second baseman, Kannapolis Intimidators: A disappointing season ended in deflating fashion for De Pinto, as he went hitless in his final five games and 13 at bats with the Intimidators, the Class-A affiliate of the Chicago White Sox.
The former Golden Knight batted .237 (62 for 262) with 23 RBI, 11 doubles, three triples and five stolen bases this year in Kannapolis. He did string back-to-back multi-hit games Aug. 28 and 29. He went two for three with two runs in a 9-1 win over the Greenville Drive and followed it up with a two-for-four game with a run scored in a 5-4 loss to the Drive the next day.

NEW YORK, NY, October 18, 2012 — More than 80% of high school students in the U.S. report that they witness bullying at least once a week, according to a national survey released today by DoSomething.org. A national multimedia public service advertising (PSA) campaign is launching today to educate and empower parents to talk to their children about ways they can be more than a bystander. The PSAs are being distributed nationwide to coincide with National Bullying Prevention Month.
The campaign was developed by the Ad Council in partnership with AOL, Facebook, Johnson & Johnson, the Free to Be Foundation, the Waitt Institute for Violence Prevention, and the Departments of Education and Health and Human Services. The PSAs were developed and created pro bono by New York advertising agency DDB New York and filmmaker Lee Hirsch (BULLY) and The BULLY Project.
More than one in four children in the U.S. report experiences with bullying, according to the National Center for Education Statistics. While parents throughout the U.S. are concerned about this issue, research shows they're more reactive than proactive when it comes to talking to their children about it, (Communispace and Ad Council 2012). Additionally, while three-quarters of teens say the best thing that others can do to help stop bullying is to intervene, only 16% report their peers "often or always" intervene and half of teens say they "rarely or never" see anyone do so. (DoSomething.org, 2012)
"To stop bullying, we have to start with parents," said U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan. "This partnership will provide parents the tools they need to recognize the signs of bullying, to talk to their children about it, and to empower themselves and their children with effective, low risk strategies to end bullying."
Created pro bono by DDB New York in partnership with the Ad Council, the effort includes a series of television, radio, print, and online PSAs as well as digital and social media strategies that encourage parents to, "teach your kids how to be more than a bystander."
Actress, activist and co- founder of the Free to Be Foundation Marlo Thomas began an anti-bullying campaign on her website on the Huffington Post and AOL in May 2011. "If there's one thing I've learned over the years about tackling problems," says Thomas, "it's that the first thing you need to do is spark the conversation. So let's start talking about bullying. With our neighbors. With our friends and family. With fellow parents at PTAmeetings. And with each other. It's time to take bullying down."
Per the Ad Council's model, the creative will be distributed to media outlets nationwide and the PSAs will run entirely in donated media time and space.
"Bullying is an issue that affects all children in our country and, as we have all seen, the impact of these incidents can be devastating," said Peggy Conlon, president & CEO of the Ad Council. "Parents are a very important part of the equation and they need to understand their role so they will proactively communicate with their children about bullying. I am proud that so many of our partners in the federal government, non-profit, media and corporate communities have stepped up and provided such significant donated support for this critical effort that will help keep our children safer."
Several campaign partners have developed PSAs and resources featuring their talent to extend the reach and impact of the campaign, including:
- The BULLY Project helped create a PSA that shows scenes from Lee Hirsch's award-winning documentary, BULLY, which opened theatrically last Spring to critical acclaim and chronicles five American families on the front lines of the fight against bullying;
- Univision developed Spanish-language campaign spots that will run across its television, radio and online platforms;
- Turner Broadcasting's CNN and Cartoon Network, in support of its Stop Bullying: Speak Up initiative, developed a television PSA featuring CNN's Anderson Cooper;
- MLB Network developed PSAs featuring MLB Network host Brian Kenny; MLBNetwork analyst and former National League All-Star Sean Casey; and MLB Network analyst Dan Plesac, a three-time American League All-Star and 18-year Major League veteran.
"Bullying is a crisis that demands fierce and urgent action," said filmmaker Lee Hirsch. "The Ad Council's PSA campaign is a critical tool to engage parents in a national mission to stop bullying now and forever. The BULLY Project is excited to be a part of a campaign that can help create schools and communities where respect and empathy are championed, where each American child can thrive."
"The messaging component of the campaign is purposefully crafted to be as uncomfortable and disconcerting as possible to remind parents of the gravity of what their kids are witnessing and the devastating effects this experience can have on them," said Joe Cianciotto, executive creative director, DDB New York. "To balance the urgency of the narrative with an empowering call to action, the campaign offers an educational resource at stopbullying.gov where parents can go to teach their kids safe ways to be more than a bystander."
The campaign directs parents to stopbullying.gov, the Federal repository for bullying prevention. The site, produced by DDB New York in collaboration with the U.S. Departments of Health and Human Services and Education, among other federal agencies, provides a variety of resources for parents including tips for how their children can address bullying, informative videos and content that they can share with their children or other parents. Low risk actions children can take to become more than a bystander and help stop bullying, include: Tell a trusted adult, like a family member, teacher or coach; Help the person being bullied get away from the situation; Be a friend to the person being bullied; Set a good example – do not bully others; and Don't give bullying an audience.
Parents are also directed to visit the Stop Bullying Speak Up Facebook page, developed with CNN and Cartoon Network, which today has more than one million likes and has generated more than 140,000 pledges to stop bullying. Facebook will deeply integrate the Ad Council PSA campaign into the page and will also promote the campaign throughout the site.
Several media companies have also made early commitments to support the PSAs in donated media. AOL will be donating 170 million impressions to the Web ads. ThroughAOL, the campaign will receive space for banner ads, a feature in the "You've Got" video series starring Marlo Thomas and Kelly Ripa and a spot on the AOL Impact page. Several publications have committed to donated space for the PSAs, includingParenting, The Food Network magazine, Cosmopolitan magazines, select Time Inc. magazines and select newspapers across the country.
Carat, a leading communications planning and media buying agency, is developing and executing a robust media strategy and communications plan to help secure additional high profile targeted placements for the PSAs across TV, digital and print. The NationalPTA will help get the campaign out to their network of parents and schools.
The PSAs were informed by qualitative research donated by Communispace. The research was conducted in three rounds using Communispace's proprietary Ideaspace online communities and included parents of school-age kids.
DoSomething.org's findings stemmed from an interactive Facebook application, done in partnership with the movie Bully. The questionnaire collected responses from more than 50,000 high school students nationwide from April through August 2012. For the full report, visit www.dosomething.org/bullyreport.

Sony Gives an Update on the PlayStation Network and Its Future
At their E3 2014 media briefing, Sony discussed the PlayStation Network, celebrating some impressive statistics about its current state as well as laying out plans for the future of the network.
Sony Computer Entertainment America's president and CEO, Shawn Layden, first touted PSN's high user rate; nearly 95% of all PS4 owners are on the PlayStation Network, and gamers have played online for over 1.25 billion hours.
The focus of the presentation was on connectivity and sharing, with Layden announcing that PSN's 220 million game shares would only be increased by the addition of YouTube to the PS4. Players will now be able to upload game footage to their YouTube channel at the press of a button and see their friends' videos automatically appear in their What's New activity feed.
With over 150 million spectate sessions already counted, the PS4's interaction with Twitch and Ustream has been a success, and Layden promised even more interactivity while watching other gamers' sessions. He cited that this feature allowed spectators to interact with live players' game experience while they're playing, with Layden stating, "You can help them, you can harm them; it's up to you, but you're right there with them."
The Playroom will receive new free DLC that allows players to create custom broadcasting sets, adding a slew of new options for the virtual reality game.
Finally, Sony switched focus to Free-to-Play games, announcing that more than 25 new games would be playable on PS4 for no charge, including Kingdom Under Fire 2, PlanetSide 2 and Gunza. This was followed by a trailer featuring a wide variety of upcoming F2P games, like Loadout!, War Thunder, Pain! and Fat Princess.

Herbs are running amok in my backyard, and I couldn't be happier. But there is something like too much of a good thing. The first year we moved into our home, I planted an innocent looking sprig of mint in a corner of one of my vegetable beds. Little did my green-behind-the-ears gardener self know that by the following year the mint would take over the entire bed and by this summer it was beginning to break out past a brick barrier to take over the rest of the yard.
As much as I love mint, it got to the point where I finally gave in to Desi and let him uproot all of the mint. I saved just a couple of sprigs that I have now planted in a pot, and they're already flourishing. I am sure I will have all the mint I need in no time, and my vegetable bed will be able to play host to more veggies. Live and learn.
In addition to the mint, I have some perennial herbs that spring back to life each year, thicker and faster than ever before, like some lemon thyme that's gorgeous in just about anything but particularly so with spuds and eggplant. The sage, a beautiful, hardy perennial gifted by my friend Bess just a couple of years ago. In addition to being super-delicious, it's also perhaps the most gorgeous herb around with ash-green leaves and purple flowers. Chives, with their mild, addictively onion-y flavor and feathery flowers.
I planted some rosemary in the vegetable garden last year hoping it would return– it is a perennial– but it didn't for some mysterious reason. So I've got some growing in a pot this year because I just long for its intoxicating flavor in a richly vegan "beef" stew. Come winter, I'll just move the pot indoors and hopefully my rosemary shall live.
Also this year I bought some French tarragon that I'm not sure what to do with, but will find out– and let you know. If you know about good uses for this herb, do share.
As neck-deep in herbs as I am (and I mean it in the best possible way), I try to find new uses for them each time I cook. One recipe I cooked up this week and really loved– and which is very versatile, really– is my Herb Roti.
This Herb Roti is high in protein, because I mixed up garbanzo bean flour, or besan, and whole-wheat flour to make the roti dough. I also threw in handfuls of mint, sage, and thyme, all finely chopped, along with some spices.
I'm running out of time, and I gotta run. But here's the recipe for Herb Roti, and keep reading to learn a little bit more about me, if you want to.
Enjoy, all!
Herb Roti
- 1 cup garbanzo bean flour
- or chickpea flour or besan
- 1 cup whole-wheat flour or atta
- 1 cup loosely packed herbs (I used thyme, mint and sage, but coriander, rosemary, chives, garlic greens would all be great in here, together, or by themselves). Chop the herbs really fine.
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp red chilli powder , like cayenne
- 1/2 tsp turmeric
- 1 tsp garam masala powder
- Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and add enough water to make a smooth dough. Cover the dough and set aside for about half an hour.
- Shape the dough into 12 smooth balls. One by one, roll them out, dusting the surface with enough flour, into circles around 6 inches in diameter.
- Heat a cast-iron or nonstick griddle. Spritz with some oil spray and cook each roti on both sides until reddish-brown spots appear.
- Serve with a subzi or chutney. Don't leave these rotis standing too long because the garbanzo bean flour in them will cause them to stiffen up.
Two talented bloggers and friends, Richa of Hobby and More and Mel of Veganize This!, passed on to me some blog awards: the Versatile Blogger Award and the Stylish Blogger Award. Both require I post seven facts about myself, and I thought I'd take up the challenge. It seemed a little difficult in the beginning because I've already shared facts about myself thrice before, in this and this and this post. But once I'd started, they kept coming.
Instead of passing on the award to specific bloggers, I am just going to share this award with all of my blogger readers and friends, including Richa and Mel.
And now here you go–seven random facts about me:
I was a Hollywood movie critic for the Times of India for a couple of years after I first moved to the United States. It was a blast to sink my poisoned fangs into gems including Blade, Meet Joe Black, and Practical Magic.
I could never have a direct conversation with my now-deceased mom-in-law, because we did not have a common language. She spoke only Tamil, and everything she said to me, and I to her– except rehearsed lines like "How are you?" "I'm fine," etc.– had to be translated by Desi or my father-in-law, or someone else who happened to be around. I still miss her, and wish now I'd learned Tamil fast enough to have been able to speak with her.
I am pretty sure I was born to be a couch potato, but I don't always get to live like one.
I once covered a Civil War reenactment for the newspaper I worked at and I can't say I've seen anything else like it, before or since. When I got back to my car someone, annoyed perhaps by my PFLAG sticker, had scrawled "Gay" on the dust-covered bumper. Reminded me that my car needed a wash.
Speaking about bumper stickers, I absolutely love them. My car usually provides lots of reading entertainment for other cars at stop lights. My favorite: "Dog is my copilot." It works especially well when Opie's riding shotgun with me, as he usually does when he's in the car.
I don't believe in life after death and heaven and hell and all those things, but I often catch myself imagining a heaven for dogs where my Freddie– miraculously young and free of disease– is playing fetch with his favorite red ball.
I know that last one was a bit sappy, but that's just another random fact about me. I am a perfectly sappy person, especially when it comes to animals. I cry buckets each time the ASPCA ad airs, or when I see a kitten with big, round eyes. In fact, I think there's nothing more beautiful in the world than a kitten, don't you?

Why Internet + TV Was Down In Pasco, Walla Walla and Ellensburg Thursday
A vandal broke into a utility box near the Pasco-side of the Blue Bridge on Thursday sometime after 9 a.m. and disrupted communication services vital to thousands of businesses and homes in the Pasco, Walla Walla and Ellensburg areas.
An unidentified person cut the fiber optic cables connected to a splice enclosure, likely in search of copper wire to steal and sell. The incident was reported to Pasco Police, which investigated the crime scene during the middle of the day.
About 244 individual wires had to be reconnected to resume communication service to customers. Charter Communications spokesman Kevin Allen said all services to all areas were restored by 4:30 p.m. Internet in Pasco resumed about 2:30 p.m.
Service in Kennewick and Richland was not affected.
Allen said no theft took place. Work crews believe the vandal saw the cable was fiber, and not copper, and fled the scene. Pasco Police Captain Jim Raymond said that unless there are witnesses, this may be a difficult case to solve.
In Texas not long ago, Charter Communications saw 300 to 400 yards of fiber optic cable stolen, likely in search of copper, Allen said.
Charter Communications is the largest service provider in the Pasco area. According to its website, Charter is the fourth-largest cable operator in the country and offers telephone, Internet and television services.

Bank commissions shall regularly financial performance, breathing a sigh of relief when increased costs less revenues and revenue growth is more or less on target. If this is not the case, questions about performance and management is to maintain a chastened constant control on costs or not aggressive enough sales guide. Pricing questions rarely seem to arise, though, although prices inevitably has a significant impact on revenues. In corporate governance briefing this month, Richard Ketley explores how better prices can contribute to the bottom line.
Although banks compete in what are usually highly regulated markets, there is always room for manoeuvre as far as is concerned, especially when it comes to credit or bundled product offerings. And even a small improvement in average price can have a dramatic impact on the business.
The math is simple.
If prices can be increased without causing a significant reduction in the turnover and costs can be kept constant, accumulate the benefits directly to the bottom line. Although slightly decreased volumes in response to higher prices, some variable costs are also likely to decline, then the overall impact is still likely to remain positive. The alternative strategy, to reduce prices, not only results in a reduction in revenue, but also in rising costs, such as increase in volumes.
Competitive banking markets in the Middle East, pressure to reduce, rather than increase prices is often intense. New traders with deep pockets capital are willing to offer huge discounts in order to win market share and regulators are increasingly defining or limiting transaction fees.
But before being pulled into a price war, bankers should be able to answer some basic questions about their markets, as well as the behavior of their customers.
For example:
• What role does actually play price chosen by the customer of the Bank, and how these differ between segments?
• We actively defend our customers against predatory pricing without dropping the general price level?
• We know from data on we accepted and rejected offers of credit customers who are more sensitive to prices?
• Are the right policies and procedures in place to manage discounts over the network?
• We know the real costs of providing our services as these are influenced by the growth in our customer base?
• How to optimize our business when we operate in markets that are more complicated as the payments environment?
• We've exploited advances in systems and technologies to effectively channel in order to customize pricing for each customer?
Some banks in the Middle East have formal processes of pricing or internal structures, the task of providing credible answers to these questions. It is much easier to accept a version of what is believed to be the market price, offer this to all customers and clamp down on discounted relationship managers.
This is, after all, advise the course of operational efficiency consultants more action.
But there is ample evidence to suggest that banks that invest in fixed price strategies and skills can improve their earnings.
For example, research has shown that family ties and life cycle events play a more important role in the choice of the Bank that the prices of the specials. Even customers who "defect" because of a special offer you can recapture through proactive direct marketing.
Research has also demonstrated that, in almost all customer segments, less than 20% of customers are able to select the most convenient option, choosing between a lump sum and a percentage discount. Equally important, many customers will not change a set of "default" options presented on a form, and then by selecting the appropriate default settings can play a key role in optimizing revenue.
In a culture in which individuals expect to be able to negotiate, enabling front line staff offer you a discount can strengthen the emotional bonds between the customer and the Bank, providing the process is properly handled. And to manage the risk involved, banks may use their credit application data and reviews, analytical methods to determine which customers are more likely to be price sensitive or even a higher risk.

Mega-mid tent and bug insert
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Our scout troop transitioned to the use of BD mids and bug inserts a few years ago. We have used the tents in the Boundary Waters and at Philmont. Typically three scouts will bunk in the mids ( backpacks/gear stored under a rainfly). Plenty of room for all of them. These are older scouts - typically 15-17 years old and averaging 5'10" - 170 lbs. 2017 Philmont trek was in monsoon season and we had heavy mountain rains 8 out of 10 days on the trail. Tents did great. Bonus feature is you can elect not to use the bug insert when conditions warrant it (except in Philmont - must have bug protection). It is hard to beat boy scouts when testing equipment for durability. Maybe US Marines come close. The boys really give the gear a workout.
Living large on the north shore 94'
Returned Before using
I set this up in the back yard with the BD Megamid and was underwhelmed by
the lack of real usable space inside and returned it. Instead I got a Nemo Pentalite 4 with the snap in wedge. Because it is 5 sided, and pitches tall enough to stand up in it has much more room. It also does not need seam sealed
finally! bug free myd living!
I love my myd but it always was a drag in early summer when the bugs were bad. I would string up a regular bug net that you'd hang from a ceiling inside, but it was always such a pain.
Love this product...I, however, differ from another reviewer in that I feel it is quite heavy for what it is. This plus my myd weighs almost as much as my expedition tent...and the whole point of me using my myd is going light!
Still, great overall.
Tall guy from buggy Missouri
This is a must-have add-on to the fly if you camp in bug/mosquito-infested areas like Missouri in the summer. The bathtub-style floor helped keep the rain out during two nights of torrential Midwest rains and still allows stellar ventilation. (Bonus, total view of the sky when the fly's not on.) Also very light and packable yet still big enough for my 6'7" body plus wife, toddler and gear. Planning to take it on 5 days of backpacking with two other tall guys in Colorado later this month - it should work perfect.
Mega Bug Lightweight Performance
I'd been using the Megamid shelter for several years with and without the floor depending in conditions and always wished for more bug protection. Finally the folks at Black Diamond provided the solution with the Megabug. I bought the Megabug right before a recent trip to Peru and all in the group (4 total) were excited to use the new backcountry screen tent. It performed wonderfully from high-altitude trekking to cloud forest jungle. I was impressed with the super-fast setup and high-quality details incorporated in the Megabug design. The connection of the floor to the netting walls is a comfort saver when four people and their gear are using the shelter. With the old floor and Megamid design, it seemed like body parts and gear were always leaking out into the elements and critters were always sneaking inI'm still missing a yellow tassel from my favorite climbing hat due to a salt-hungry rodent nibbling late night on my hat exposed to the opening in the sidewall. So thank you Black Diamond for another great lightweight solution...also, my brother-in-law was so impressed with the setup that you should be receiving a Megabug and Megamid order from him soon.

Home to the world's oldest known trees, majestic mountains, and vibrant ocean life, the Golden State has embraced visionary policies to protect its air, water, and climate. California's standards for energy-efficient appliances, clean cars, and consumer safety are leading the way for entire industries—as well as other states, the whole country, and even other nations—to make important changes.
NRDC has helped spur California's environmental leadership since opening our San Francisco office in 1972, joined by a Los Angeles office in 1989.
Some of our accomplishments:
- For more than three decades, our policy experts have provided technical analysis and political backing for efficiency standards that allow California to reduce its energy use even while its population and GDP grow. We adapt and promote these standards in other states and rapidly developing countries like China.
- NRDC has helped officials adopt ambitious local laws that cut carbon pollution from power plants, cars, and fuel, spurring action in other regions and Washington, D.C.
- We helped generate political support for a network of marine protected areas stretching along California's coast, a model that can be brought to other coastal states.
- To ensure safe homes, we cosponsored a bill requiring furniture manufacturers to label products containing flame-retardant chemicals, which are associated with cancer and other serious health issues. Because one in eight U.S. consumers live in the state, we expect companies will phase these chemicals out in other markets, as well.
- We protect the state's unique treasures, from negotiating safeguards for the wild grasslands of Tejon Ranch to restoring the San Francisco Bay-Delta and keeping dirty storm water out of beaches.
- As the state faces record-breaking drought, we champion the water-conservation strategies that will help its residents become more resilient to the impacts of climate change.
Find out how NRDC helped the Golden State protect its oceanfront and all the plants and animals that call it home.
Thanks to a long-overdue regulatory update and a new labeling law, shoppers can finally find safer furniture.
An NRDC lawsuit has led to the comeback of the Golden State's second-largest river (and its salmon).
Recurring drought in the Golden State has convinced most of us that there's simply not enough water to go around. But that's actually not true.
Two ballot initiatives involving the bag ban are on the ballot this November—but one of them is not what it seems.

Bret Hart may have spit on, then slugged, Vince McMahon so many years ago in the infamous Survivor Series "screwjob."
But that wasn't nearly enough to soothe the disdain he felt for the company he felt had betrayed one of its most loyal soldiers.
The Hitman, whose status in the wrestling world made him much more than just a national hero to us Canucks, could not let go.
It wasn't just losing his championship belt to Shawn Michaels that ate at him ... it was the way it was done -- in an underhanded sort of nod-and-a-wink fashion.
The feelings of betrayal and hurt consumed Hart -- probably way too much for a guy who already had plenty of hurt going on in his life.
Time, and a reconciliation of sorts with Vince, have begun healing the wounds ... and thankfully, for wrestling fans that wanted some form of closure, Bret will be rightfully inducted into WWE's Hall of Fame April 1, the night before Wrestlemania, in Chicago.
And wouldn't it be wonderful if The Hitman got involved in McMahon's feud match with Michaels at Wrestlemania? For sure, but it's not likely to happen. You see, Bret Hart is a man of integrity ... and it's difficult to imagine he'd get involved in a "storyline angle." That would diminish from the real-life trauma he's struggled so long to conquer.
So we may have to settle for the Hall of Fame ... and hopefully some sort of speech at Wrestlemania, but we're good with that. Hart is a hero. And his memories should be ours to share.
"Bret's had an incredible career," says WWE Canada president Carl DeMarco. "He contributed so much to the business and to the fans. Look at his track record. I don't think anyone can take away from what he's accomplished.
"As a big Bret The Hitman Hart fan, I'm thrilled for him. It's going to be an exciting night."
A new association with The Hitman makes plenty of sense on a bunch of different fronts for WWE. His DVD is among its best sellers. And his legacy is still strong -- "You Screwed Bret" chants still ring out in arenas across the world.
- Shelton Benjamin won the Intercontinental title from Ric Flair on RAW.
- Here are the results from WWE's No Way Out pay-per-view: Kurt Angle beat The Undertaker; Randy Orton beat Rey Mysterio; Chris Benoit won the U.S. title over Booker T; MNM lost a non-title bout to Tatanka and Matt Hardy; JBL beat Lashley; and Gregory Helms won a nine-man cruiserweight match.
- The very beautiful Trish Stratus will host CTV's broadcast of the Walk of Fame June 3 at the Hummingbird Centre in Toronto.
- Eddie Guerrero will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.
- Will Marty Jannetty join McMahon's Kiss My Ass club tomorrow night on RAW? That's what it'll take to get a WWE contract, according to Vince.
- Ashley broke a leg after being pushed over the top rope in a Diva Battle Royal on RAW.
- WWE released The Dicks -- Chad Wicks and John Tolland.
- TNA has dished out a two-month suspension to talented Austin Aries for putting a pay-per-view appearance in jeopardy by wrestling the previous night for Ring of Honor.

Today is the day! Get your copy of Margaret's 6th concert film, Cho Dependent, filmed at the Tabernacle in Atlanta, GA!
Order the Cho Dependent DVD HERE
Get a digital copy of Cho Dependent (Live in Concert) on itunes HERE
A note from Margaret…
My new DVD Cho Dependent is out finally and I am so excited! I filmed this show at the Tabernacle in Atlanta where I have performed many times and gone to see such diverse acts as Elvis Costello in a country music guise (where I marveled at the man who I have hugged without the English restraint you need when you hug on some English people – they get scared so please approach them sideways like a crab and hug very quickly on the side or just prepare them in advance for the hug by telling them it is coming and wait about 3 minutes before you do it) and his impressive catalogue – as he has so many songs that he can just pick a genre he wants to do or revisit whether it's the attractions or country or Juliet letters with strings and tour that – unbelievable – Elvis is the MAN and 30 Seconds to Mars which was probably the most unified front I have ever seen in live music. The entire audience knew all the lyrics to all the songs and Jared only had to lift his fine angelic hands and they knew what to do. It was similar to and rivaled only the great Neil Finn and Crowded House shows I have seen in the United Kingdom. Neil only had to raise up his hand, perhaps an opening guitar riff, and we all knew exactly what song it was and what part harmony we would be singing.
The Tabernacle is an old place, but it's got banging new sound and a hotshit crew that took good care of us. Many of the people filming this show worked on Drop Dead Diva, and so there was family all around. We parked the beloved tour bus in the back of the theatre, and Al, my darling husband came to join the party, as we were set to leave on a long pasta eating excursion to Rome the next day. It was the last day of a long tour, and I needed my man and I needed a break and I needed carbs and in their most potent form, pasta. Mmm. We drove in from sunny, alabaster bright Miami, and I had gotten a Snooki-style tube dress at a South Beach tourist trap, so we were unprepared for the weather. It was actually snowing, tiny flakes of newly frozen water that melted as soon as it hit your bare skin – yes we didn't even know to put jackets on – we weren't ready for the surprise that Hotlanta actually gets really fucking cold sometimes.
My voice was in a good way, which is pleasing and not always the case, and I had a smashing set, even though it's disorienting to film these shows, even though I have shot many of them now, and am accruing quite a library of standup comedy shows on DVD, VHS film – I am up for it all and I love it. Let's shoot one with a shoebox camera. When you shoot a comedy show, the audience is illuminated, as they are the stars of the film too, as are you. We are all stars. I saw all my friends in the audience, my Atlanta heartthrobs and heroines, and we stayed late at the Tabernacle afterwards with wine and cheese from my prodigious tour rider which is basically a breakdown of what is happening in the cheese world today. Bring on the dairy. If it's a party, I want to get drunk on dairy. The wine is just to cut the richness, but seriously you could leave that off. I don't care. I just want cheese.
I am proud of this show because there are lots of surprises, lots of variety elements, songs I love to sing and exciting new material which after months of touring is tight as a drum and I wanna bang it like a gong. Lorene did an awesome job yet again, as we've fallen into a familiar rhythm with these. We enjoy it and we come back and do another and another and it feels great. Now this is number 6.
I wanted to shoot in the great city of Atlanta because it is my second home, where I actually spend the most time during the year in one place. My friends there are tremendous, and I miss them during the times when I am off on the road laying awake in hotel beds with my frenemy that gruesome bitch Insomnia. Ms. Insomnia = who I don't want to be with. My friends from Atlanta = who I do want to be with. And you = who I want to get with. And you + my new DVD Cho Dependent = me happy.

Lernaeocera branchialis
|Lernaeocera branchialis
|The gills of a whiting infested by two blood-sucking Lernaeocera branchialis
|Scientific classification
L. branchialis
|Binomial name
|Lernaeocera branchialis
|Synonyms [1]
Lernaeocera branchialis, sometimes called cod worm, is a parasite of marine fish, found mainly in the North Atlantic.[2] It is a marine copepod which starts life as a small pelagic crustacean larva. It is among the largest of copepods, ranging in size from 2–3 millimetres when it matures as a copepodid larva to more than 40 millimetres (1.6 in) as an adult.
Lernaeocera branchialis is ectoparasitic, which means it is a parasite that lives primarily on the surface of its hosts. It has many life stages, some of which are motile and some of which are sessile. It goes through two parasitic stages, one where it parasitizes as a secondary host a flounder or lumpsucker, and another stage where it parasitizes as a primary host a cod or other fishes of the cod family (gadoids). It is a pathogen that negatively impacts the commercial fishing and mariculture of cod-like fish.
Life stages[edit]
The life-cycle of a cod worm involves a complex progression of life stages, including two successive hosts. It comprises "two free-swimming nauplius stages, one infective copepodid stage, four chalimus stages and the adult copepod, each separated by a moult".[3]
The cycle begins with the females laying eggs which hatch into a nauplius, the usual early larval stage of crustaceans.[4] This nauplius moults about 10 minutes after hatching to produce nauplius II, and 48 hours later, nauplius II moults to a copepodid stage. At this point the copepodid is pelagic and free-swimming with an average length of about 0.5 mm.[3]
The next stage is finding a secondary or intermediate host, a demersal fish like a flounder or lumpfish which is often stationary and therefore easy to catch. The copepodid has only a day to find such a fish and attach itself to the fish's gills.[4]
When they locate such a fish, they capture it with grasping hooks at the front of their body. They penetrate the fish with a thin filament which they use to suck its blood. The nourished cod worms then progress via four moults from the naupliar stage to the mature chalimus stage. At this point the males transfer sperm to the females. Both sexes develop swimming setae, detach from the flounder or lumpfish and again swim freely as pelagic organisms.[4][5]
The female cod worm still resembles a copepod and is 2 to 3 mm long. Females undergo another pelagic quest, searching this time for a definitive or primary host. With her fertilised eggs, she looks for a cod or a fish belonging to the same family as cod, such as a haddock or whiting.[4]
When a suitable definite host is located, females enter the gill chamber. There, while attached to a gill, the female develops a plump, sinusoidal, worm-like body, with a coiled mass of egg strings at the posterior end.[4] Females now measure about 20 mm long, but can grow up to 50 mm.[6] The oral end of the female copepod penetrates the body of the cod until it enters the rear bulb of the host's heart. There, firmly rooted in the cod's circulatory system, the front part of the parasite develops in the shape of antlers or branches on a tree, reaching into the main artery. In this way, while safely tucked beneath the cod's gill cover, the female's deeply embedded oral end can feed on blood while eggs develop and are released into the water column from the posterior end.[4][5]
It is not known how L. branchialis searches for its fish hosts, but it probably uses chemoreceptors and mechanoreceptors, and follows physical clues in the water column such as those provided by haloclines and thermoclines.[3]
Effects on fisheries[edit]
The most serious parasitic crustaceans among fish in general are sea lice.[7] However, L. branchialis is probably the most serious parasitic crustacean among cod. Infestation reduces the efficiency with which food can be utilised, delaying the development of the gonads. Up to 30% loss in weight can occur, with increases in mortality because of open lesions with loss of blood, and possibly occlusion of vessels or aorta.[7] These can have commercial impacts on wild fisheries, making cod-like fishes more expensive to market.[7][8] Gadoids, particularly cod, are emerging marine aquaculture species in some North Atlantic countries. L. branchialis present potential problems for their successful mariculture.[9]
