In a move that will make the ultimate discipline applied to the players involved in the Saints bounty case even stronger, Commissioner Roger Goodell has recused himself from Tuesday's appeal hearing.
The announcement came from NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith on Twitter.
Per Smith, Goodell will hand the baton to former Commissioner Paul Tagliabue.
It's a power the Commissioner possess under the Collective Bargaining Agreement. And Smith got advance notice because the CBA requires Goodell to consult with the NFLPA.
It's a smart move. Goodell was and is too close to the case. It would have been virtually impossible for him to be truly objective and impartial. And by picking Tagliabue, Goodell is keeping the decision in the hands of a Commissioner-level arbitrator — with Goodell hoping Tagliabue will reach the same decision that Goodell reached. And if Tagliabue ultimately upholds Goodell's decision, it will be harder for the players to obtain a reversal of the decision.
Then again, the players may welcome the move. After all, Tagliabue was the Commissioner in 1996, when the league allegedly condoned the "Smash for Cash" program.
And who was the Executive V.P. of League and Football Development at the time, the precursor to the current "Football Operations" department? Roger Goodell.

Post by Stefan of Tokyo Whisky Hub
The people at Whisky Magazine Japan have just launched a very interesting new branch of their site - "Japanese Distilleries" - which provides factual information about all Japanese distilleries, past and present, in both English and Japanese. Organized as a map with clickable distillery pinpoints, it gives you a profile of each distillery, followed by information about the core range, address, tour options, access, as well as details of a more technical nature (number of pot stills, washbacks, materials used, warehouses, etc.) that will appeal to the whisky anorak. It's already very impressive, but it's just a starting point. The people at Whisky Magazine Japan are in close contact with the distilleries and the aim is to make this a comprehensive resource about Japanese distilleries and their whiskies. They're not just looking towards the industry for input, though. The idea is to take a 360-degree approach with ideas, comments and maybe articles submitted by writers, bloggers and even regular whisky lovers who may want to share something about a distillery visit or have another story to tell. This promises to be a much-needed central reference for enthusiasts of Japanese whisky. Definitely a page to bookmark.

Tutorial - Space Marine Head
by Raffa
Hello everyone,
time for another step by step, this time i'll paint a veteran space marine head in the colors of the ultramarines chapter.
Before we start i have to say i modified the layout of this tutorial a bit.
If you don't like it please post a comment (if you like it you can write it, too ;) )....
Hmmm, while i was looking around for stuff needed for this tutorial i noticed my bits box was kinda empty... no more space marine helmet head.
Oh dear.... ok let's do a workaround ;)
I sculpted a ball and put it on a socket so you could better see it and it's easier to paint it.
After this i primed it white. Priming white is good if you want bright, strong colors.
So, we only have a ball because i can't really sculpt a space marine helmet.... we have to paint the whole thing on it. To help me i made a small sketch how a space marine head basically looks.
Ok, after that i tried to paint my sketch onto the ball with a mechanical pen.
Now we start painting the base layer with Ultramarine Blue.
Leave spaces or thin lines so you know where to paint the shadows later.
I mixed some Space Wolve Grey into the UB and made some glazes to bring in some light.
Now i mixed some Chaos Black with the UB and painted the first shadows and outlines.
Pure (but thinned) Space Wolve Grey for edges and strong highlights.
As the light is for the biggest part finished, i started with the veteran laurels.
To do so i painted two lines with Valljo Ivory.
mechanical pen and erase the lines afterwards.
After this step i painted the leaves of the laurels and highlighted the laurels using Skull White.
I added a Ultramarine Symbol using Ivory again.
symbol "omega" to get a ultramarines logo.
Now we will paint a basic non metallic gold effect on the logo.
I used the following colors for this: Scorched Brown, Bestial Brown, Snakebite Leather, Bubonic Brown, Skull White.
Try to paint some metallic effect using a gradient like i posted above.
Now the final step is painting the eyes, for the Eyes i used the following colors:
Chaos Black, Liche Purple? (can't remember), Blood Red, Blazing Orange, Sunburst Yellow.
I started with a Blood Red/Chaos Black mix to give a medium-dark basecoat.
I decided to add some bolts to the helmet and so added some shadow for them.
I also started with the non metallic metal hoses on the side and mouth grill using basically Chaos Black, a mix of Chaos Black, Codex Grey and Ultra Blue for the shadows and a gradient with more and more white in it.
I continued with glazed of Chaos black into the dark areas and then made a gradient starting with Blood Red, continued with Blazing Orange and ending in Sunburst Yellow.
For the bolts on the helmet i added some Space Wolve Grey for the Highlights.
I painted the final highlights on the metal parts using Skull White.
Now the final Step is to add white reflex points.
Now just paint the socket with a nice black finish and you're done!
I've written some stuff on the base and added my signature.
Here's my result:
So i hope you maybe learned one or two things about painting space marine helmets :)
If you like this article you can leave a comment :)

What's better than a huge carnival? How 'bout a huge carnival with a cause?
That's what you'll find in downtown Taylorsville this Saturday during the first annual Carnival for a Cure, an event that will help raise awareness and funds for the fight against Juvenile Diabetes.
Debby Cannon has worked with other families in the community with children dealing with this disease and have banded together to create the event.

Missionary Joys Yearlings
At Retreat To Throw By MIR JOHANSON
A well-rounded program was
presented, including moving
pictures from the field by Rev.
Geo. Strohm of St. Paul Bible
school. Rev. Strohm stressed
the truth that "God has pre-pared
places for prepared peo-ple."
On Saturday and Sunday
Rev. Clarence M. Hanson, pas-tor
of Immanuel Lutheran
church, St. Paul, brought a se-ries
of messages on the theme
"Mighty For God" based on
John 15:1-11. We are branches
on the vine and must abide in
Christ to be fruit-bearing
branches. His final message
emphasized the truth that there
must be love in the life of one
who is to be mighty for God.
Perhaps the most inspiring of our
speakers was Mrs. Stadscliff, re-cently
returned missionary from
Africa. Mrs. Stadscliff presented
interesting details illustrating
God's power to transform lives. Her
counsel was to learn as much as
possible about everything in prepa-ration
for service on the mission
Bethel had the best representa-tion
at the Retreat. Other schools
represented were St. Paul Bible in-stitute,
Augsburg college, St. Olaf,
and Gustavus Adolphus. In addi-tion,
a male quartet from John
Fletcher college joined in the fel-lowship
and song.
School Year Nears
Seven weeks of this school year
remain before the Summer vaca-tion
will begin, Dean Emery John-son
reminds. This includes the
week of final exams.
One more holiday remains in
this school year. This is Memorial
day on Thursday, May 30. .Tohn-son
said that the annual all-school
picnic will likely be held after the
exams because the holiday falls
during the examination period.
Sophomores will step out in for-mal
attire on Friday evening, April
26, for their annual dinner. The
affair will be held in the Coffee

Last Saturday at 5:30 p. m., the
chartered Greyhound bus carrying
the Male chorus drew up with its
load before the Seminary building.
The chorus of twenty-four, with
its director, Professor Geo. Hult-gren,
and pianist, Clarence Olson,
had just returned from a 3,000 mile
trip of three weeks giving concerts
of sacred songs in 19 -Swedish Bap-tist
churches in the East.

of the tour.
Bethel and its Male chorus
have much for which to thank
Hultgren. Besides being an
outstanding director, Hultgren
is a splendid Christian whom
all the singers have learned to
love and respect. Students ap-preciate
the splendid work
which Hultgren has done for
the school and its musical de-partment.
Hultgren is planning to teach at
the University of Southern Cali-fornia,
Los Angeles, during the
Summer months. The chorus ap-preciates
also Clarence Olson for
his good solos and skillful accom-paniment
at the piano.
Wherever the chorus went, It
was heartily received; people
were kind. All the meals were
provided by the churches ex-cept
the noon repast, which
was paid from chorus funds.
The first weekend of the trip
was spent in and about memory-sacred
Boston. The second week-end
found the chorus in New York.
The singers were guests at a radio
dramatization of Death Valley days
in the NBC broadcasting studios.

TRY THIS editoidd DEVOTIONAL
By Isador Kanipski
Spring definitely makes a change
in a person—his personality, his
outlook on life, his expression,
even his attitude toward persons of
the opposite sex.
Things look new and one feels
differently about everything. Have
you noticed those cheery counte-nances
and classy clothes around
school lately? We haven't seen IT,
but IT's coming! What? Oh, all
the new couples which bud out
along with trees and such.
(Did you hear the one about—
quote Cliff Bjorklund— "In Spring
a young man's fancy turns to—
horseshoe, baseball, tents, and all
other things he pitches?" We know
we're behind times, but we enjoyed
Yes, and greatest of all with
Spring comes poetry, inspiring and
creative. (See "Swede's" contribu-tion.)
But, you say, I can't write poetry.
I don't believe that I can be in-spired.
(Remember? "Poetry be-gins
with a lump in the throat!")
I thought I was as hard-boiled as
anybody, and I decidedly couldn't
set two lines of verse down on pa-per.
But one day I did get an in-spiration
and wrote a poem on—
Just to show you that I'm a good
sport, and to encourage all other
amateurs to take their hand at this
art, I reproduce my first poem be-low,
crude though it may be. Fol-lowing
the poem, I'll tell you how I
discovered that I could write
"verse," and how you too can sat-isfy
that "lump in your throat."
"My thoughts have burned of
When birds will come on wing;
The winter stays too long,
It quenches all my song.
The sun is hid in clouds
By gray envel'ping shrouds.
The once new snow is black;
All seems one endless track.
This is a cursed time,
Nature seems tombed in death—
My soul has shrunk to leath'r,
I dream of other clime.
I look again around,
And in my soul is found
A poem, inspired from all
The bleakness—what a call!
The barren trees form rows,
A patterned rhythm grows;
The grass, frost-browned, seeks
To start new live at length.
Nature awaits sun beats—
Oh, come to dull landscape!
Could I this month escape
Depressing moods, defeats?
I hate this turning time;
Yet it bespeaks approach
Of newness; Mother Earth
Is recreated soon.
(Continued on col. 4)
This Way Out
Like a kitten in a sea of water living her ninth life., screaming and
gasping for breath, is Norway; and all the world sits placidly back wait-ing
and watching that last little flicker of existence of Norway's "ninth"
We as students, living in a secluded vicinity near school, do not meet
the other class of youth, the youth struggling for existence.
What of the thousands of young men and women spilled from our
high schools each June and January? We know that about 18 per cent
of them will enter college after graduation, that only 22 per cent of them
will find work within a year of their commencement into life. What
does the future hold for this remaining 60 per cent of the annual crop of
human lives?
Youth of today have no challenge of rugged and wild country to sub-due
and civilize; their forefathers have done that. Youth of today is
given no challenge to marry a worthy mate and create a happy family—
the preceding generation has torn the veil away and revealed happy
marriage as a farce and an improbability. The youth of today are not
aware of the supreme challenge, the challenge of life to overcome ob-stacles
and to sidestep difficulties, to LIVE!
Must America come to the goose-stepping level of Germany? Nazi
Germany, where all boys 15 years of age and over are forced to join the
army and prepare themselves as fodder for the next attack of the vora-cious
monster, war! Shall we 'inflict upon our youth the subjugation of
the Soviet union; take away their right, as citizens of a democratic na-tion,
to religious liberty; mold them into bolts of a huge mechanism;
reduce vital, youthful energy to mere mechanical reactions? Is this the
American way out?
Youth have tried suicide as a satisfactory answer to problems; youth
have become involved in gangs leading to the reformatory and eventu-ally
to the penitentiary. Youth have shifted from state to state, retain-ing
only their parasitical nature in their travels. Youth have lived
"eight" lives seeking for solutions to their problems.—Youth, living
their ninth lives, are imploring for restitution, reassurance of their capa-bilities,
for a chance to live.
Parents, you have the incomparable opportunity of rearing youth
with a vision of things to be done and a will to do; of instilling in youth
a hope for the future; of arousing in youth a desire to develop physical-ly,
and spiritually; of encouraging youth in their ambitions and plans;
of counseling youth about their problems and mistakes. Make your
homes attractive for your children. Permit youth to renovate, at small
cost, your attics and store rooms, and to bring the gang into the home,
instead of seeking rendezvous elsewhere.
Society, you have the privilege of exalting youth's ideas on marriage,
of restoring honor and respect to that sacred institution. You are in a
position to minimize youth's mistakes, and magnify youth's possibilities.
Our government should capitalize to a greater extent on youth's
activity through organizations such as the National Youth administra-tion,
the Civilian Conservation Corps, and the Works Progress admin-istration.
America's way out? It is the cooperation and backing of parents,
society, and the government in permitting youth to realize their supreme
challenge, THE CHALLENGE TO LIVE!—Joyce Johnson.

In a tract, "Fifty Years Of Look-ing
Down," I read Wm. Feather's
account of a young man who once
found a five-dollar bill on the street.
"From that time on," continues
Feather," the young man never
lifted his eyes when walking. In
the course of time, he accumulated
29,516 buttons, 54,172 pins, 12
cents, a bent back, and a miserly
disposition. He lost the glory of
the sunlight . . . the smiles of
friends . . . and the entire joy of
This story is not unlike that of
Peter, who lost sight of Christ and
beheld the boisterous waves about
him and began to sink.
Can we gather more than but-tons
or pins by looking DOWN
rather than UP to Christ? Will we
not sink with Peter if we lose sight
of Christ and behold the boisterous
waves of temptation about us? Let
us lift our eyes and behold with
the psalmist, "The heavens declare
the glory of God, and the firma-ment
showeth His handiwork" (Ps.
19:1), that our lives may be filled
with His beauty.
Unto Thee, 0 Lord, do I lift up
my soul. (Ps. 25:1.)
'Tis Springtime, God's Springtime
Springtime in the soul;
Our hearts in sweetest rhyme,
This should be our goal.
God would have us fresh and pure
As the new born flow'r,
Pure to feel this love so sure
As a strength'ning tow'r.
All nature is so glorious
So green, so sweet and calm;
So we in life victorious
May lift a joyous psalm.
Springtime in the heart.
Oh, what a glorious spring;
Oh, let us never, never part
From this the wondrous spring.
May spring come in through love,
Into our hearts and lives,
And may we meet on strands above,
For this may we all strive.
—Sara Mae Swensson.
From death of winter late
Will spring new joys, 'bundant
In life to conquer fate.
I do of all recant."
Your inspiration, as did mine,
will probably come during some
class you don't care much about or
perhaps in chapel. But if you want
to write, put down your ideas.
To write your first poem—set
down a series of ideas. Then fig-ure
out a verse scheme and put the
rhythm into it. Of course, you've
got` to think of the rhyme too, but
it's all a lot of fun. Quite a conces-sion

end of the lot."
Holes for the trees will be dug
beforehand. Ceremonies will in-clude
the setting of the trees and
filling in of soil by the students.
After the outdoor exercises,
a program will be presented in
the Junior College chapel.
Each class has been asked to
submit an eight-minute num-ber.
The day's celebration will
be concluded with refresh-ments
in the Coffee shoppe.
The committee assisting Nor-strom
in the arrangements for Ar-bor
day are: Miss Esther Sabel,
Bill Adam, and Deans K. J. Karl-son
and Emery Johnson.
Discussed Recently
Professor C. E. Carlson recently
led members of the Religious
council in a group discussion on
different phases of religious work.
The five points of the outline are
as follows: objectives, basic prin-ciples,
methods, techniques, and
Six objectives of the council
were listed: to bring non-
Christians to a decision, to
give experience in Christian
work, to deepen spiritual lives
of students, to maintain a spir-itual
atmosphere in the school,
to minister to Christians direct-ly,
and to establish new cen-ters
for Christian work.
Basic principles brought out in-cluded,
need of prayer, recognition
of the Bible as the Word of God,
zeal to the cause, desire to follow
God's will, manifestation of love,
and organization to include as
many as possible.
Methods to achieve the work
to be done would involve pray-er,
Bible study, promotion of a
private devotional program,
prayer towers, gospel team
meetings, constant Christian
living, chapel services, and
distribution 'of tracts.
The evaluation of the council's
work proved rather difficult, as re-ported
by George Ohsberg, vice-president
of the council. Workers
cannot always know what the re-sults
may be, however, they can
note the development of efficiency
in the work. It was concluded that
only God can really evaluate this
Ohsberg intimated that he was
drawing up a similar outline for
the gospel teams in their work.

Diamond Outlook
Looms Uncertain
By BERNARD HAMMERBECK
Another spring has rolled around,
and once again Coach William
Adam is confronted with the prob-lem
of producing a winning base-ball
team. Although nine lettermen
are returning for the 1939 team,
Coach Adam is a bit hesitant about
hazarding a guess as to the team's
possibilities. He believes that new
material may contribute much to
the team's success.
Warren Johnson is expected
to hold down the number 1
catching spot with Vern Pear-son
spelling him off as a relief
receiver. Johnson is just the
type of catcher that is needed
to aid a somewhat doubtful
pitching staff, for he has plenty
of fight and is a great hustler.
He also has a good arm and
swings a mean hickory. Pear-son
is also a capable receiver,
but he is handicapped some-what
by a weak throwing arm.
Coach Adam has two returning
veteran pitchers to rely upon. Or-ville
Johnson and "Micky" Mc
Olash have both had considerable
experience on the mound and are
expected to carry the majority of
the pitching chores.
However, except for these two
veterans, the pitching staff ap.
pears to be the big question
mark of this year's horsehide
gang. If one or two more ca-pable
hurlers can be develop-ed,
the Indians may go a long
way in this year's diamond
race; but if other prospective
hurlers fail to develop, the
situation looks rather gloomy.
Carl Holmberg is expected to
hold down the initial sack again
this year. "Pinky" is one of the
heaviest sluggers on the entire
club and will, in all probabilities,
bat in the cleanup position.
Other returning lettermen
who are expected to aid the In-dians
in this year's pennant
chase are Don Johnson, Del Pe-terson,
Gus Ferre, and Al
Bloomquist. However, outside
of these lettermen, Adam will
not speculate as to the person-nel
of his team. He intends to
watch all new prospects close-ly,
so that all available talent
may be mobilized for the cham-pionship
The schedule for the 1940 season
as released by Coach Adam is as
follows: (Notice that the first
home game is scheduled for Sat-urday,
May 4.)
19—Blake There
22—Luther There
4—Luther Here
10—Waldorf Here
11—Bethany Here
15—Concordia Here
17—Bethany There
23—Blake Here

How to Map: Gen II Style
Right, so I've been working with Gen II graphics for nearly 4 years now, and I've picked up quite a few things in the process of many transitions between ROM Hacking, RPG Maker XP, and just simply Pixel Art.
Now, from time to time I see a Gen II fan project, or a map on DeviantArt, or someone trying to make a Gen II themed hack on GBA. Now, what I don't see, is proper mapping; Single trees, inverted fences, and incorrect searock formations are some of the tile errors I see all the time. So in this guide, I'll be teaching you how to map Gen II, the correct and awesome way
Table of Contents
1--Tiles and Blocks
2--Trees and Paths
3--Fences and Ledges
4--Ocean Mapping
5--Final Words
1. Tiles and Blocks
If you work with Advance Map, or even RPG Maker, you know that blocks are 16x16 chunks of 8x8 tile graphics that you use for mapping. Well, it's no different for Gen II, except that blocks are 32x32 chunks of 8x8 tiles. This was originally made to save space, but it now serves as an iconic reminder of the Gen II Style.
Here's an example:
The original blockset for Gen II is rather limited, with oddities ranging from certain headbutt tree formations missing to a lack of unique tiles for most routes. Many of these can be forgiven in a hack, obviously, but there are some errors that are just plain awful and deter from the experience.
2. Trees and Paths
Tree tile errors are among the most common that I see. Many people do not take into account that trees are a 32x32 block, with exactly two tree tiles standing next to eachother. Let's say you wanted to make a very thin path in your game, perhaps to have an easy guard event or the like. I will often see uneven lines of trees, which is incorrect and could easily be remedied by headbutt trees. Here's an example of what I mean:
As you can see, one of the blocks has a single tree; this is rather off as you won't see this anywhere in the vanilla Gold/Silver ROMs, and it looks weird. Here's the right way to do it:
Very simple fix, and it makes it look that much more appealing.
3. Fences and Ledges
Fences are the worst offenders of ill mapping that I see. Here's a reference from route 38, a correct way to format fences:
Oftentimes, I will see this:
I myself used to make these mistakes, so I know they will happen. But keep this in mind if you are using a lot of fences in your map. As you can see, the latter example is just awful and uneven. Don't do this or your family will be dishonored.
4. Ocean Mapping
This is a really short example. Just keep in mind border rocks (the little white ones that are in rows of 2x2) shouldn't be inverted. A very easy mistake to make, and I even still make them on occasion. The single best reference to how border rocks should be mapped is Route 41 (With an incorrect palette for your convenience):
5. Final Words
While short, I hope your time with my tutorial has helped if you ever are mapping with Gen II tiles. I would like to see more properly mapped hacks and games when using the style. If you would like me to add anything else to the guide, let me know

Hmm... This is quite nice!
When all you can find are examples of maps using newer tiles and styles, it can be frustrating to make maps in the Gen. II (or older) style, and you do a nice job of countering common pitfalls related to that!

I know Christmas version and some other hacks purposely do their own thing and will go out of block pattern, but since it's a rom hack they can do as they wish and it's fine. It's just when a game claims to be gen 2 styled they tend to not be up to par.

With nearly 200 Valentine's Days between them, three Cape Coral couples recently opened up about meeting the love of their life and what it takes to build a happy union that stands the test of time.
Bill and Pat Pranger met in Chicago, Ill., while attending Wilson College.
"He played basketball," she said. "He was good looking - he was over 6 feet tall."
Article Photos
Cape Coral residents Pat and Bill Pranger have been married for 65 years.
Pranger, who was on the homecoming court, was looking for a dance partner.
"I needed a date, so I picked him up," she laughed.
The couple started dating after that.
"We just got along," Pranger said. "We just sort of hit it off."
After a little less than a year of dating, her beau popped the question. They were married a couple of months later on Sept. 29, 1948, in Chicago at a priest's rectory - she was Catholic, he was protestant.
"We were still in college, but we dropped out and went to work," Pranger said.
About three years into the marriage their first child, Karen, was born. Over the next 10 years, the couple welcomed Linda, Susan, Bill and Donna into the world. They now have five grandchildren.
In the retail business, Bill Pranger traveled often for his job and the family moved a handful of times, from Pittsburgh, Pa., to Oklahoma City, Okla., then to Greensboro, N.C., and later Akron, Ohio.
Seasonal residents, they eventually settled in the Cape in 1988 when Bill retired.
Traveling has been a shared love between the two over the years.
"We've been all over the world, even Egypt - all those places," she said. "Lots of cruises, lots of overseas travel - seeing places that you wouldn't normally see."
Pranger shared her and her husband's first overseas river cruise, which trekked from Amsterdam, Denmark, to Vienna, Austria, as one of her most memorable times with him.
"Everything we saw, everything we did," she said.
"It was a lot of fun growing old. It's not so much fun when you're old," Pranger laughed.
Mary Reisdorf was in the U.S. Army Air Corps when she agreed to a double date with a girlfriend. The girlfriend's date needed a vehicle and his friend, Cornelius "Corky" Reisdorf, had one - but no date.
"We were blind dates, which in our day was kind of common," she said.
Also in the U.S. Army Air Corps, Corky Reisdorf had returned from serving overseas.
"Right away we just clicked," Reisdorf said.
She, however, explained to him that she was not looking for a serious situation, but was open to a friendship. They even shook on it. Thirteen dates and about five months later, they were wed.
"He just proved that he's so responsible. Everything he said to me - he bent over backwards to keep his word," Reisdorf said. "I felt that, 'This is somebody you can spend your life with.'"
They married on Sept. 2, 1945, at Rosecrans Fields in Saint Joseph, Mo. He was 25 and she was 23. The couple later moved to Denver, Colo., where they spent 35 years. They raised one son, Mark, and a daughter, Nancy. Today, they are the proud grandparents of four and have seven great-grandchildren.
In 1988, the Reisdorfs settled in Cape Coral.
A shared devotion to country and God have connected the couple over the years.
"We both served," she said. "We have a deep love for our country."
Raised as a protestant, Corky converted to Catholicism for his new wife.
"He wanted so bad that we would be a united family," she said. "There was never any question about where we would be on Sunday morning."
Asked to share one sentimental memory, Reisdorf recalled when they went to a well-known prenatal doctor to set up an appointment, and there were 50 or 60 pregnant women waiting to do the same. The couple had already faced one line after another following the war - for a refrigerator, a home, more.
"He took my hand and looked me in the face and said, 'We have stood in line for many things, but we're not going to stand in line to get our baby," she said. "I thought how precious that was to me."
The Reisdorf found another doctor, and Mark was born.
"I think coming through the war years brought about an appreciation of things and life," she said.
Both raised in New Jersey, Betty and Ernest Dentzau met during high school.
"The first thing I looked at was how tall he was," she said. "I always liked tall boys."
The attraction was mutual.
"We took an immediate liking to each other," she said.
After going out a few times, Dentzau became away of Ernest's attentiveness.
"He would have his arm around me," she said. "He took care of me."
The couple would often take walks together. One day, after Dentzau had graduated from school, they were out walking and came upon a jewelry store. Inside, they saw a ring and marriage came up.
"We didn't really have any money, so he bought the ring on time," she said. "It was paid for by Christmas and so that's when we got engaged."
The engagement worried Dentzau's mother because she and Ernest were young. Dentzau quickly explained to her mother that she should not worry because they were not getting married right away.
"But four months later, I got married," she laughed.
The couple said their vows on April 26, 1953, in North Arlington, N.J.
"He told me after we were married that when we started going together that he told his friend that he was going to marry me," Dentzau said. "He made up his mind right away."
"I only knew that I like him and hoped that one day we would get married," she said.
After six years of marriage, their family grew with the birth of Michael, followed by Jeffrey two years later. The now grandparents of two lived in New Jersey for about 45 years before moving to the Cape.
Dentzau pointed to her whole life when asked about a special moment in her and Ernest's life.
"I think God every day that I've had the life I've had with him," she said.
As for advice on achieving a long marriage, each of the women offered up a few tips.
"We just have from the beginning had a great respect for each other," Reisdorf said. "These days a lot of couples have to prove their love, but from the beginning we have never had to prove our love."
She added that Corky's thoughtful gestures over the years also have not hurt. For instance, he always has a flower at the breakfast table for her, even if it means sneaking one from the neighbor's yard.
"I've really appreciated that. A lot of people, as they grow old, that diminishes," Reisdorf said.
"He has always been a hero, and he's treated me like a queen," she said.
Supporting each other and solving problems together also is key.
"We've all had our problems through the years, but you work through them," Dentzau said. "The advice that I would have it you need to talk, you need to discuss things, and you can't have any secrets."
Any big purchases or plans are not set in stone without a discussion.
"To this day, we do not do anything unless we talk it over with each other first," she said. "I think that's important - the communication between two people."
Being the peanut butter to your partner's jelly also does not hurt.
"I think we complement each other," Dentzau said. "I was always extremely outgoing, and he was just the opposite. He just kind of sat back and let me do my thing."
And, maintaining a sense of independence was something all three woman touched on.
"Bill traveled, so he was gone at least a week out of every month. That probably kept us together," Pranger said. "We had space between us - I think everybody needs their own space."
For them, that always meant one vacation spent together and one separate.
"I think the secret to a marriage is having your own space," she said. "To be willing to let one person go her way and another person go his way and still be together."
Not holding onto fights also does not hurt.
"Things will smooth themselves out," Pranger said.

I've come to the conclusion that I've had some sort of mental block for around almost nine months now. Every time I'd sit down to write I could never collect my thoughts or didn't really feel as if what I had to say was important enough to share. Some days, more often than not, everything just seemed too hectic to justify allowing myself the time to write. I felt selfish for trying to carve out 30 minutes to collect my thoughts on a page when I knew the house was dirty, the girls needed help on homework and there were an endless number of other things that I owed my time to.
I realize that the words I write may seem trivial to many. I often focus too much on those tiny moments of life that merely make up our day to day schedules. I get a little too happy about things like making pie crust and cupcakes, about the way the light falls on the world right before sunset. The things I've always written about may no doubt be a bit annoying or boring to others and occasionally I feel it a bit conceited to send those thoughts out into the world and a bit presumptuous to think someone else might want to read them.
This morning as I went through the motions of scrambling to get out the door and to where we were going on time, as I drove to town and only half listened to the songs playing on the radio, one phrase of a Pink song came through the fog that seems to have surrounded me for all these months. "When you're out there doing what you're doing, are you just getting by?" That line has rattled back and forth in my brain for the past few hours until now when I decided that I needed to take a moment to really think about it and why it's still in my head at all.
All these months, through summer and fall and winter holidays and now almost to spring I've just been going through the motions. I've allowed worry over so many things going on around me and happening to others I know and acceptance of things that I cannot change to make a shell around me that has me no longer listening or seeing or experiencing the life I'm living.
The problem with going through those motions without taking any time for myself, to pay attention to all those little things I find important, I realize is that I was slowly slipping away. All those details that I cherish that others might find annoying are really what makes me, me. Those few moments that I collected my thoughts on paper I was really collecting myself. I'm thinking that you have be just as proactive in keeping up yourself as you do in keeping up all the others in your life that you love otherwise what's left is someone that those loved ones and you aren't going to like very much.
So while I still feel a tad bit foggy I think at least this is a start and as that song I spoke of earlier goes on to say at least I've got to try. That said, hello again. This will be the first of what I hope are many strange observations and ramblings about all the little things I find joy in. I hope you find some of them joyful too.

This post originally appeared on Craft Beer New York.
Every time I go to my local bottle shop to buy a six-pack or three, it seems like there's another new beer or brewery gracing the shelves. Despite my ongoing drunkenness, I am not hallucinating. Brands are entering the New York City market at a dizzying clip. Here are a few of my favorite new arrivals to seek out.
Sixpoint 3 Beans: To build this burly Baltic porter (hello, 10 percent ABV), the crew from Brooklyn's Sixpoint turned to a blend of wheat, barley and, yes, three beans. The first is Stumptown Coffee, while the second is husked cacao beans from Brooklyn's Mast Brothers Chocolate. And the third bean, well, that's no obvious. It's a Romano bean, which was once used to extend the fermentable power of barley and, in a nice twist, contribute proteins to create a rich, luscious body. As a finishing touch, the beer was aged in toasted oak barrels for three weeks, resulting in a creamy, silky indulgence sold by the can.
Troëgs Nugget Nectar: For hop heads, January and February are the cruelest months. Brewers have turned their attentions to barley wines and stouts, mothballing bitter beers until the spring or summer. That's not the case at Hershey, Pennsylvania's Troëgs, which uses these months to release its highly covetable Nugget Nectar, the ratcheted-up version of the year-round HopBack Amber Ale. The imperial Nugget's caramel-malt flavor is complemented by a fresh, floral perfume. It's now available in bottles. Look for it in draft later this month.
Bayou Teche: While the South has long lagged behind in the craft-beer game, it's recently begun to catch up thanks to wonderful new breweries such as Louisiana's Bayou Teche. (Currently, much of its beer is brewed by Mississippi's Lazy Magnolia.) Based around an hour outside Baton Rogue in Arnaudville, Bayou Teche is the brainchild of brothers Karlos, Byron and Dorsey Knott. Their focus is beers designed to complement Cajun and Creole cuisine. Currently, New Yorkers can try the biscuity LA-31 Bière Pâle and the Passionnè wheat beer, which is made with passion fruit. In the future, be on the lookout for my favorite release, Bière Noire. The robust, subtly smoky dark brew tastes of dark-roasted coffee, but it still drinks crisp and surprisingly dry.
Lakefront Brewery Fernet Stout: Eben Freeman is the bartending equivalent of Mr. Wizard, smoking Coca-Cola, infusing bourbon with cigars and creating "white Russian" Rice Krispies that are twice soaked in Kahlúa and dehydrated, then set adrift in a bowl of simple syrup, vodka and milk. Now Freeman is turning his talents to beer, collaborating with Milwaukee's Lakefront Brewery to create Fernet Stout. It's based on the recipe for the Italian amaro Fernet, and the beer is brewed with ingredients including dried orange peel, star anise, clove, lemon verbena, fennel and saffron. The bitter beer is available on draft at Nicoletta Pizzeria and Osteria Morini.


text: There are/have-been heaps of remoting frameworks in java, but RMI being part of the JRE/JDK and therefore having no external dependencies is my personal preference for remoting with java. Its main drawback: the wire protocol is not web-friendly and therefore difficult to go through firewalls (although it is possible). But if used behind the firewall, it makes for an excellent way to do distributed computing using only the JDK (OMG! only the JDK?! no Spring? or JMS?!). It does have several killer features that are found in very few (if any) remoting frameworks: callbacks and remote classloading. In this tutorial, you will see remote classloading. Ever since JRE 5.0, you don't need to compile stubs (meaning you don't need an extra compile-time step to get RMI working). I am guessing someone decided to do away with those and use the jdk dynamic proxies.

By Paul Chislett
On April 27th, it quickly became apparent that the crowd of about 80 people attending the city led meeting of the Water World pool facility, primarily from the Glengarry Housing Development, did not want to see their pool close. City council has voted to study the construction of a 50 meter pool complex that would be built farther west onRiverside drive.
Residents where neighbourhood pools exist are fearful the city will close neighbourhood facilities forcing everyone from seniors, children, and the disabled to share a facility primarily aimed at athletes and tourists. As a result of concerns, neighbourhood meetings were arranged for the Glengarry community, and one for those who rely on Adie Knox in May. At the meeting it was quickly evident that city administrators had an agenda meant to diffuse citizen opposition to a pool closure at Water World. Even though the residents were adamant that the Water World pool is the heart and soul of the Glengarry housing community and should not close, the city officials proceeded with a process that included breaking into smaller groups and discussing three pre-arranged questions formulated by city officials without input from the community.
Ronna Warsh, General Manager of Social & Health Services for Windsor, facilitated the meeting on behalf of the mayor and council. Four councilors also attended the meeting: Fulvio Valentinis who represents the ward Water World sits in, Alan Halberstadt of Ward 4, Ed Sleiman, Ward 5, and Ron Jones, Ward 2. Warsh addressed the citizens stressing that no decision has been made on a new pool being built, and that she and her team were there to hear what residents had to say. However, at one point during an exchange with residents Warsh stated that "city council could have deliberated this without hearing your voices, so good for them they are in the room, they are hearing your voices." This was an astonishing statement to hear since city councilors are paid to listen to the concerns of citizens. Residents were encouraged to consider the pool as only one element of a multi-use facility. If the pool were gone, the other service elements and the building would remain and possibly be enhanced. The three pre-arranged questions put to the citizens were: 'What do you like that happens inside and outside of the facility'? 'If council were to close the pool what could you dream about that would replace it'? And 'what ideas do you have for new programs that would use the pool space'? While small group discussions are a valuable part of a consultation process, it seemed in this case that small groups were calculated to better control the agenda of city officials, and that agenda was to deflect discussion from the pool closing and instead fabricate consensus for the closure. Citizen opposition was anticipated and steps were taken to control the outcome of the meeting while giving residents the sense they had contributed to the process. It took some doing for Warsh to convince citizens to move into small groups as there was resistance to her agenda. People responded with a resounding No! when asked if they would go to another facility onRiverside. Nevertheless, in a spirit of cooperation, the residents moved into five groups to have discussions.
When the main group reconvened, it was clear to Warsh that "this pool is a huge, important asset" for the citizens. Out of 18 in her group, only two would take their family to the new facility. Common themes in all groups were that many residents have limited mobility and count on the pool being close to where they live, that community cohesiveness is built and maintained by the proximity of the pool, and that seniors, children, and disabled people count on this facility. Bonnie Bailey, a tireless advocate for the facility and former recreation assistant to the manager of Water World, has no doubt that the new pool complex being proposed is needed. However, it will primarily serve athletes and tourists. She was adamant that children, seniors, and disabled people would not be able to access nor afford the new pool facility. The smaller size neighbourhood facilities such as Water World are there to serve residents, while the proposed pool complex would serve a specialized clientele and non-residents. Bailey was fearful about the dislocation and disintegration of community that would occur with one pool facility. For this observer, a world class city would include both a large pool complex as well as accessible and affordable neighbourhood pools and fitness facilities.
In his remarks, Councilor Valentinis warned that those opposed to a pool closure must be able to prove why it is needed, rather than simply say they want the pool, end of discussion. Valentinis said that when it comes to council, other councilors will say that they don't have such a pool in their area so why is Glengarry so special? Obviously not allWindsorneighbourhoods are socially and economically equal. Other neighbourhoods are better off economically and have greater mobility, so a neighborhood pool is not considered a necessity the way it is in Glengarry. Also, there was a definite sense that the city administrators feel they are stuck with operating costs for Water World since the casino paid for it to be built. Is the city now trying to railroad Glengarry residents into giving up their pool so Mayor Francis can put another feather in his cap for his vision of economic development? Is the city going to tell Glengarry residents they are simply not entitled to such a facility in their neighbourhood because there isn't one in all neighbourhoods? Ronna Warsh stated that she heard very clearly that residents do not want their pool closed, and that the remarks recorded in the discussion groups will be included in the business case to be presented to council very soon. That business case will include the $700,000 needed to keep Water World open as is. The fight, therefore, to keep Water World open has just begun. Glengarry residents may have had their say, but if they leave the process in the hands of city administrators who only see numbers, this pool will close.
The city led consultations were not a participatory democratic model. While Glengarry resident Barbara Pellarin did feel the group discussion was a good idea and that her voice was heard, she remains doubtful that her concerns will sway decision makers on council. She is right to be apprehensive. Ward 3 residents need to be pro-active about council's agenda for Water World. Residents would do well to form a citizen led neighbourhood council which can put together an air tight case for Water World and build links with other citizens to resist council's ill-conceived notions of progress.

Aliens Interactive - an unreleased comicbook on CD-i
>> Wednesday, August 1, 2007
Another unreleased CD-i game that looks very promising. Offering great detailed graphics, this was going to be an interactive comicbook I imagine in the vein of Golgo 13, a japanese game you could read about here. Our member Erronous came across it in a resume of someone who worked on the project. It looks like they were going to do a series or something like that from the other titles mentioned on the poster. "The title was only a working prototype and never released", which indicates a prototype to exist for Philips CD-i..... I say we keep our eyes open!
Title: Aliens Interactive CDI
Produced by: Dark Vision Interactive / Dark Horse Comics, Inc.
Status: Working prototype
Year: 1991-1993
Description: Interactive comicbook. Worked with Artist Dave Dorman and Mike Richardson in developing the first Aliens Interactive prototype on the Philips CD-i.

Cardinals coach Bruce Arians might not have his quarterback at the moment, but he doesn't sound like he's close to joining the mobile quarterback movement.
Arians said this morning at the NFL Scouting Combine that he was a quarterback "traditionalist," and spoke in near-dismissive terms about the growing prevalence of read option systems.
"The more you put the QB in harms way, the more harm will come to him," he said.
That explains that he has, in fact, seen film of the offensive line he inherited in Arizona.
If there is a trend, Arians said, it will be on the other side of the ball, as pro coaches dip into the college ranks for assistants more accustomed to defending mobile quarterbacks.
The Cardinals aren't dealing from a position of strength at the moment, and can't limit their search for answers.
But Arians clearly has a specific idea of what he wants, and a quarterback running around isn't it.

The demand for gold grows during the first quarter of 2015
Gold has always been listed in the top demanded products, yet the figures of its demand change from time to time. Lately it has been published the latest information about the demand for gold in several countries, where it can be appreciated those in which the precious metal has gained popularity.
After summarizing the results it can be said that, in general, the demand for gold is on a high level. If the level of demand in the first quarter of 2015 is compared with that of the same period of the previous year, it is noticeable that Germany, China and India have taken the lead in the race for gold demand.
Regarding Germany, analyzing the data of the first quarter in 2015, the country's demand was 33.8 tons, placing it third in the world top gold consuming countries. The growth in demand soared to 18% comparing to the same quarter of the previous year which was 7% - more than the average since 2009.
India, whose share in the global gold market is 18%, it is placed second, if the results of the 1st quarters of 2014 and 2015 are compared. The demand for gold in this country increased by 15%.
Further, in China was observed a 8% decrease in the demand for gold in comparison to the same period of the previous year. However, if the demand of the first quarter of 2015 is compared to the fourth quarter of 2014, there is a growth of 9.4%. Chinese gold demand is 27%. Hence, the Asian Giant is holding its own on the global gold market.
The clients of the Emgoldex online store know the value of investment gold bars and therefore understand the importance of gold demand for every country, as well as for every individual person. They run their own business with this product which never loses its value and make their way towards success and prosperity!

Hamburg's town supervisor has called on the two school districts in the town to combine their administrations, following the recent announcements that the schools chiefs for both districts are leaving.
And while four Niagara County school districts already share two superintendents, Steven Walters' suggestion isn't getting much traction with the Frontier and Hamburg school boards.
"I think this is the time that we need to really take a hard look at that, and I would call upon the respective school boards to take a look at that in an effort to try and save some money and expenses to the taxpayers," Walters said last week.
He suggested they should look at consolidating and sharing administration services, but continue to operate as two separate districts.
Both school districts are searching for new superintendents, after the surprise resignation of their top administrators within a month of each other.
School districts run independently from town government, and both districts are deciding who will lead their searches.
Hamburg Superintendent Steven A. Achramovitch submitted his resignation for retirement effective Aug. 10. Frontier Superintendent James C. Bodziak announced July 9 that he will step down Sept. 9. Bodziak was paid $189,000 a year, while Achramovitch earned $170,000.
Hamburg School Board president David Yoviene, has been a member of the board since July 1.
"I'm getting a taste of what they do in Hamburg. Boy, it's a lot," he said. "I don't think one guy could do it all. What would you really be saving? You'd still need a fleet of assistant superintendents."
Frontier Board President Janet MacGregor Plarr would not comment on the possibility of the two districts sharing a superintendent, but she said consolidation should be done on a larger level.
"If you want to look at true consolidation of services, everyone should be utilizing a regional school model, with BOCES overseeing all the districts of Western New York," said Plarr, who also is on the Erie 1 BOCES School Board. "Across New York State as a whole, we need to relook at how education is funded and how services are provided."
Sharing the top administrators is occurring in Niagara County, where Barker Superintendent Roger J. Klatt also became superintendent for Royalton-Hartland July 1, after the Roy-Hart superintendent took another job.
And two weeks ago, Wilson Superintendent Michael Wendt also became interim superintendent for Newfane.
"The problem with the shares currently is everybody thinks they can do it now," said Orleans Niagara BOCES Superintendent Clark J. Godshall.
The Barker-Roy-Hart sharing came about when "the stars aligned," and a lot of planning went into the move, which is for one year, he said. The two districts have good infrastructure and resources, such as a competent veteran staff, as well as an experienced superintendent in Klatt, he said.
"We're doing it incrementally for a year, then we're going to review, see how it goes," Godshall said. "This was a very thoughtful decision and not just a political quick fix."
Newfane's superintendent retired June 30 and the district signed up Wendt for about three months while the districts decide if it is a good fit.
The enrollment at Frontier is 5,000 and at Hamburg it is 3,700. The Niagara County districts are much smaller.
Barker has just under 900, and Roy-Hart has about 1,400. There are about 1,700 students in Newfane and 1,300 at Wilson.
The sharing of superintendents works because the districts are small, Godshall said.
Barker and Roy-Hart already have some shared programs, such as the football team, and the wrestling team is being merged as are some special-education programs.
Those are benefits to the students with an additional benefit of cost savings, said Klatt, who added that the main reason for the superintendent sharing was not to save money.
"We've had an existing partnership. This is another partnership we want to believe will be effective in moving each district forward," Klatt said.
Klatt's salary would have been $156,000 this year at Barker, and his new salary for overseeing the two districts is $174,000. The cost is split evenly between Barker and Roy-Hart.
Plarr said Frontier offers summer school to students from a number of districts, and some Frontier students attend Hamburg's EMT classes. Frontier also shares non-educational items, such as its gas pumps, with the Village of Blasdell, where Plarr is village administrator.
Hamburg's Yoviene said he doesn't think one person could handle the two jobs in Hamburg and Frontier.
"I don't think you could find someone interested in taking on such a monumental task," he said, but he added, "Everyone wants lower taxes, I understand that."
"I would caution that the practice of sharing, it should not be universally applied to any district," Klatt said.

Thank you, Russell Coronado, for freeing CVESD from the lengthy reign of Patrick Judd.
See background story below, after resignation announcement:
Chula Vista seeks applicants for post
By TAWNY MAYA McCRAY
March 20, 2012
The Chula Vista Elementary School District is looking to appoint a new board member.
It was announced Monday that board member Russell Coronado is resigning from his post effective March 31, nine months before his term is up in December. Board President Pamela Smith said Coronado, who was elected in 2008, was leaving due to "personal reasons."
"(Coronado) has been very dedicated and it's been a pleasure to serve with him," Smith said at Monday's meeting. "He's brought a lot of expertise to the board and always focused. I have never been in a conversation publicly or in closed session with this board that isn't always about kids, kids first, and Russell has been very true to that. We're going to miss him."
The remaining trustees, minus Douglas Luffborough who was absent, voted Monday to begin accepting applications to fill the position on the five-member board. Coronado was also absent from Monday's meeting.
Applications are due at the district office by noon April 11.
Applicants must be at least 18, a U.S. citizen, a resident of the school district, a registered voter and not legally disqualified from holding public office by state law (for bribery or perjury convictions, for example).
The board decided not to fill the vacancy through a special election because of its estimated cost of $770,000 to $800,000. Trustees plan to interview the applicants and appoint the new member at a special board meeting April 23. The chosen candidate will serve the remainder of Coronado's term.
This will be the third time since 2007 that the board has decided to appoint a new member. Trustee David Bejarano was chosen out of a pool of 39 candidates in 2007 after Cheryl Cox stepped down following her election as mayor of Chula Vista. Luffborough was selected out of 23 applicants in 2009 after Bertha Lopez resigned to serve on the Sweetwater Union High School District board.
"We have been through this process before and it's been a good one and has resulted in some outstanding board members," Smith said at Monday's meeting. "I think it is a very inclusive process and we take the process very seriously. We look forward to hearing from our community and seeing who's interested in this."
Applications are available at the superintendent's office, 84 E. J St. or on the district's website at cvesd.org. Eligible community members must submit a letter of intent, the completed application, and two letters of recommendation to Soreli Norton, assistant to the superintendent and the board of education.
Head of CV school board to move temporarily
Russell Coronado, president since last year, is tending to a family member, officials say
Ashly McGlone
Aug. 30, 2010
The board president of Chula Vista Elementary School District has temporarily moved to the North County to care for an ill family member, officials said Monday.
"I have a commitment to the students and people of Chula Vista, but at this time I also need to provide care and support to my family members," Russell Coronado said. "At an appropriate time, we will make a decision about my position on the board."
Further details were not disclosed.
Coronado was named school board president in December 2009 after being elected the previous year.
When asked whether there is a threshold for how long a board member may live outside of the school system's boundaries, district spokesman Anthony Millican said officials were looking into it.
Millican said the district's day-to-day operations will be unaffected.

Resident Evil Porn Story: Resident Evil 4 – Ada's Seduction
"You sure you wanna do this?"
"All right. Here goes nothing."
Ashley watched Leon fight through the pain, his teeth tightly clenched. She became worried at just how bad it was going to hurt, being electrocuted like that. If it meant getting rid of this bug inside her though, she knew she had to do it. It least it would also be short, because before she could worry further the machine powered down and Leon leaned off of the chair.
"How are you feeling?"
"Like a million bucks."
"All right. Guess I'm up."
Okay, nothing to it she thought, climbing onto the large operating chair and strapping herself in. Leon gave her a reassuring pat on the shoulder and made towards the machine. He was about to start the process up when he heard the door behind him creak open. Ashley glanced over and saw Leon instinctively pull out his pistol and aimed at the intruder. He was fairly surprised (and slightly aroused) to find Ada Wong standing in the doorway. Except for the creamy fluid that dressed her body, she was completely naked.

Cucumbers are a perennial staple for me. They are available at any time of the year, even in the depth of winter. Sure they are greenhouse grown, but they are for most of the year anyway. They add a nice refreshing crispy crunch to any meal, including bentos. This is an extremely easy to make-ahead salad or marinade. Make it at least an hour before you want to eat it, or the night before for bentos. It will stay nice and crunchy for a week if you keep it tightly covered in the refrigerator, and the flavors will mellow nicely. This kind of marinated salad or instant pickle is called an amasu-zuke (sweet vinegar marinade). I have added a nashi or Asian pear to the cucumbers - their sweetness allows me to reduce the amount of sugar normally used to half, and the crispy texture is really nice with the cucumber.
Makes about 8 cups of salad, plenty for several bentos and meals.
Slice the cucumbers in half lenghwise, and scoop out the seeds with a spoon. Slice the halves again into half, so you end up with quarters. Cut up the cucumber into chunks about 3/4 cm / 1/2 inch thick (no need to be too precise here; just chop away roughly).
Peel, quarter and core the nashi pear. Slice fairly thinly.
Combine the cucumber and pear in a large bowl and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Mix well and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the rest of the salt, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar and chili pepper flakes. Stir well but don't worry if the sugar and salt don't melt totally - they will melt once you mix this with the vegetables. Put the combined sauce in the large bowl with the cucumber and pear, scraping out any unmelted sugar and salt. Mix very well. Cover, and let rest for at least an hour or overnight in the refrigerator. It will keep tightly covered for a week.
If using in a bento, you may want to put it in a leakproof container if you add some of the marinating sauce. This goes well with a Japanese-style or not-so-Japanese style bento.
Try using a crispy apple like Fuji instead of the nashi pear.
You can make a cucumber-only salad too, in which case increase the sugar to 2 tablespoons.

Just this morning I was thinking about an apple/cucumber salad of some sort. A remembered the cucumber salad you posted some time back (which I really like) and was thinking of adding a granny smith apple in with that. Thanks for posting this one as I think it will be added in to my lunch fillers frequently
sounds very refreshing and nice going to try this with regular euro pear , no nashi pears near me
Nashi pears are very crisp. I think apples are a better substitute the western pears. (If you are down under, you can also use ya pears. Both nashi and ya can be found in normal supermarkets).
This looks wonderful-- I'll definitely have to try it! From all the other recipes I've tried from your site, Maki, I've not been disappointed yet!
I just was able to purchase your book. It shipped today, and I am beyond excited. I was hoping to join the forums, but I understand registration is closed due to needing to fix up some back-end coding for the forum. If you need any assistance at all, please let me know. My "Guy" works with that type of thing daily, and as he's the one who got me started in bento and hears me talk tons about this awesome site of yours, he wanted to offer his assistance in the event you need any to fix this up! A main part of what he does is ensuring site security as well, so he's pretty tops.
All the best, and I'll be trying this recipe tomorrow!
Mm, my mum just fixed this for me on Sunday! ^^ We always like to add a bit of ginger or sambal to it - but I'm so happy that you always have vegetarian/vegan recipes! ^^
Sounds good! I like the idea of using fruit to cut down on the amount of sugar in a recipe. Even though fruit has sugar of its own, it comes with fiber, which makes it healthier. I had bought cucumbers to use for "instant pickle" - maybe I'll switch it up to this and use one of my leftover apples.
Thank you so much for this recipe. It was delicious. Since I had some left over, I made a meal by adding it to some salad greens for a lunch one day. It was super easy to make, and I had most of the ingredients on hand. Thanks again. :)
I just whipped up a halved version of this using Fuji apples instead. It's sitting in my fridge... I hope it tastes as great as it looks!
Great, just what I needed for lunches this week. :) Can't wait for tomorrow.
It's rare to get in good Asian pears where I live (I've seen a couple crop up here and there but they aren't sweet, so I suspect they were picked way too early in order to survive shipping but have zero flavor). However, if your readers have a good produce section, have them look for something called a Bosc pear. The sweetness and crunch are very similar to Asian pears. I choose the firmest ones and have used them successfully in Nang-myun without my rather finicky Korean mom even noticing the difference. Wiki says in Europe they are known as Kaiser pears.
Great site....great recipe.
Just wondering is this able to be frozen?
Thanks maki.
Just had quinoa for the first time ever, after seeing a recipe on your site - absolutely loved it. Have also packed my 2 new bentos for the first time. Your site is very inspirational. Congratulations, for keeping so many people so enlightetened!
Tried making it this morning and the dish tasted great! thanks for the recipe!
I'm a huge fan of cucumbers in the summer. A little dash of crushed red pepper and salt is how my mom used to make them. I love reading different ways of making cucumber salad. This recipe reminds me a little of Momofuku's cucumber kim chi (delicious). Thanks for sharing!
I made this recipe last week (I only had regular pears so I used those instead), and it was amazing! I always used to make a similar recipe my mom taught me with cucumbers, dried seaweed, shoyu, and vinegar, but decided to try this one because the combination of sweetness and texture of the pear, the salty/sour/umami from shoyu and vinegar, and the spice from the red pepper sounded neat. I used a ton of red pepper flakes since I am a spicy junkie though, it turned out great! :)
