The dedication of the historical cemetery headstone for a Civil War veteran who is an ancestor of WCGSTX member Vi Shirey is scheduled for Oct. 22 this fall.
Vi sent us the following information to share with the membership and the public:
" Just wanted to bring you up-to-date on the dedication of the Civil War stone for John T. Potter, on Oct 22 (his 164th birthday), at Shady Grove Cemetery, Winnsboro, TX, at 10 a.m.."
"The program is set. Participating in the ceremony will be a g granddaughter, a gg granddaughter and a gg grandson, and two ggg grandsons. In addition, the names of the ten Civil War veterans buried in Shady Grove will be read with appropiate gun salute."
"Probably five veterans' units will be participating–furnishing honor guards, flag bearers, musketry, and bugler for "Taps."
American flags will be placed on all veterans' graves other than the ten Civil War veterans. A Confederate flag will be placed on their graves."
"We feel this will be an impressive ceremony and would like to invite all of the members of the Wood County Genealogy Society and their relatives and friends to this ceremony. It is a time in history that will probably never be repeated."
She added she would appreciate us spreading the word about the dedication.
It would be a generous gesture to one of our loyal members who lives away from East Texas for us to attend the ceremony and help honor her ancestor. Please mark your calendar and plan to attend.

I promised my sister a while back that I'd post the recipe for these super easy & yummy chocolate balls.
But the thing is, I don't have the recipe for it. Oh, no.
Not everything in life comes with a manual, you know.
What I can do is tell you the ingredients and how I made them. Deal?
Okay...so you'll need some crushed biscuits/wafers. (the secret ingredient here is to use all your stale biscuits that you have lying around in your pantry for God knows how long. Make sure they haven't moulded, of course! I'm being serious. Don't give me that 'ew, are you kidding me?' face. You won't even be able to tell the difference at the end because it's all coated with nutella, trust me.)
Then, crush some of your favourite nuts in a food processor.
You'll need a couple spoonfuls of nutella to combine the crushed biscuits and nuts together in a bowl. Use just enough so that you can roll it into small balls (around 1 inch). Once you've done that, dip each of the balls in melted dark chocolate combined with a bit of copha for a thin consistency. Then, let the ball harden in a small paper cup. Do the same with the rest. If the weather is warm, put the chocolate balls in the fridge for 5-10minutes.
Chocolate balls can be eaten straight away or be kept in the fridge for 2 weeks (estimation).
Although, they are best consumed as soon as you've made them.

I was originally on the start list to race in Seoul this past weekend, but was told that it would be better to stay home and get some training in before the summer instead of going away for another exhausting trip. I was disappointed at first, but was given the opportunity to race the Sun Run instead, which is a big 10 km road race in Vancouver. About 55 000 people sign up for the race every year and it's a pretty fast and accurate course so I was really looking forward to it.
The race starts with a big downhill section, so the first few kilometers were way speedier than 10k pace. I went through 5km in 16:48, which is around my PB, and was expecting to have a major positive split, as the second half has some up hills and is quite a bit more difficult. I wasn't worried about my placing since I was just racing to get a good time, but people started telling me that I was the second woman and I got excited and picked up the pace a bit. Malindi Elmore was waaaayy ahead of me so I had no hope of catching her but I really didn't want the girls behind me to go by! The last 2 km were painful as always but I tried to stay focused and not slow down too much. I could see the clock at 33:4.. as I came to the finish and I tried REALLY hard to get in before the 34, but ran out of time. Oh well. So my official time was 34 flat, with a chip time of 33:55 since I started a bit back from the mat. I've never done a race with both men and women before and really enjoyed it- there were always guys around me or in front of me so I always had people to run with. Overall- very happy with my time and a totally unexpected 2nd place.Just waiting for the ferry to get home... got here at 1:45 for the 3:00 ferry, which was full, so now I have to wait for the 5- which is delayed until 5:45. Booo I hate traveling. Lesson learned, don't be cheap and always make a reservation.
Congrats to everyone else that raced this weekend, and Happy Mothers Day :)

Pillar of Sand: Can The Irrigation Miracle Last?
|Please contact us for purchasing options.
Author: Sandra Postel
313 pages
July 1999
A key lesson from history is that most irrigation-based civilizations fail. As we enter the third millennium A.D., the question is: Will ours be any different?
Irrigation has been a powerful tool of human advancement for 6,000 years. It remains a cornerstone of agriculture today, as farmers strive to meet the increasing food demands of ever larger populations. In Pillar of Sand, author Sandra Postel examines the challenges to our modern irrigation society-from mounting water scarcity and salinization of soils to rising tensions between countries over shared rivers. She explores irrigation's role in the rise and fall of early civilizations and connects the lessons of the past with the challenge of making irrigation thrive into the twenty-first century and beyond.
Pillar of Sand points the way toward protecting rivers and vital ecosystems even as we aim to produce enough food for a projected 8 billion people by the year 2030. Postel shows how innovative irrigation technologies and strategies can alleviate hunger and environmental stress at the same time. And she calls for a new ethic of sufficiency and sharing in response to impending water limits.

Fearing U.S. missiles, Syrians flood neighboring Lebanon
MASNAA, Lebanon The main border crossing between Syria and Lebanon was thronged Wednesday with Syrians intent on fleeing what many locals believe will be a series of American-led airstrikes against Syrian government targets over the regime's alleged use of chemical weapons last week against rebels.
Lebanese media outlets – which tend to employ hyperbole on refugee matters – said tens of thousands of Syrians had used the Masnaa border crossing in the past 48 hours to flee the more than 2-year-old rebellion that has killed more than 100,000 people and threatens to enter a new phase of Western involvement. Lebanese security sources put the numbers substantially lower but said they were believed to be in the thousands.
Lebanon already has seen the arrival of what some groups – including the United Nations – estimate are more than 700,000 Syrians fleeing the fighting. The refugees already have stressed the resources and economy of Lebanon, with a pre-Syrian war population of about 4 million religiously diverse and politically fractious people.
Millions of Syrians have been displaced by the fighting throughout that country and at least 2 million, according to the U.N., have ended up in neighboring Lebanon, Turkey and Jordan. But the announcement by the U.S. administration that it would strongly consider airstrikes in response to an alleged chemical attack by the regime last week that killed hundreds of people sparked a new round of evacuations.
"Syria could be on the edge of an abyss. This war has resulted in a humanitarian calamity without parallel in recent history," U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees Antonio Guterres said from Iraq, which is hosting at least 200,000 displaced Syrians. "When a war sweeps up a nation, there can be nothing more important to its people than open borders."
Many of the Syrians waiting in the reasonably orderly queues to enter Lebanon – Syrians and Lebanese can cross each other's borders without a visa – appeared to be wealthy and middle-class representatives of Damascus' mostly pro-regime merchant class. And many appeared to already have had their families flee before them.
"I'm just coming to visit my family in Beirut," said Abu Rami, a regime supporter and businessman from Damascus who only gave a partial name, as he waited on line to enter Lebanon. "They've been here since last summer while I run my business. But with this news, I decided to come visit them for a bit."
When asked how long he planned to stay, he was noncommittal.
"Ask Obama," he joked.
With tensions already stratospherically high in Lebanon after a series of car bombs alternated between pro- and anti-regime neighborhoods earlier this month, the authorities appeared willing to take soft measures to deter as many Syrians as possible. Local media reported that any Syrian with any sort of irregularity in their paperwork would be denied entry at the normally fairly lax border crossing.
Security officials denied that Syrians were being targeted but said the stream of refugees was large enough to convince authorities to "ensure all procedures are properly followed," in the words of one official who declined to give his name.
Many Lebanese blame the 1975-1990 civil war on hundreds of thousands of Palestinian refugees who fled to Lebanon in the 1940s and 1960s, and their continued presence in semi-autonomous camps around the country remains politically controversial.
But even as rents rise amid a housing shortage in Beirut and some working class Lebanese begin to compete with cheaper Syrians for jobs, many Syrians despair of any other option.
"My house and life were in Homs," said Abu Muhammed al Homsi, a refugee in northern Lebanon. "But my house and city have been destroyed by shelling and my country is now hell. I can't return to nothing."

Using a PC, create a free WiFi hotspot for sharing
I was recently doing one of my cyber security presentations at a professional meeting in a posh Dallas area hotel, and there was a need for several users to get online for research purposes. As the speaker, I had a hard-wired Ethernet connection allowing me to access the Internet, but the available WiFi connections in the room were weak and slow, making it difficult for the others to connect to the Internet. This was one of those situations where a common and inexpensive WiFi router connected to the available Ethernet cable would have sufficed, but no one had a WiFi router with them, as that is something that we typically do not carry in our computer bags. I remembered a column about a year ago in the Daily Buggle (thedailybuggle.com/wifi-hotspot-free-windows-pc) that explained how to use a modern WiFi capable Windows PC as a WiFi hotspot without the use of any additional hardware. I searched for that article, found it, and in a matter of minutes, we were all connected to the Internet using our laptops, netbooks and smart phones.
Most recent versions of Windows include a little known feature called Internet connection sharing (ICS), which is especially easy to set up and configure as an ad-hoc wireless network on Windows 7. When used with a freeware utility, Mhotspot (mhotspot.com), the Internet connected laptop computer becomes a virtual WiFi router with no additional hardware and no complicated software configuration. Once installed on the computer, the Mhotspot software does all of the work and creates a WiFi hotspot without the use of complex configuration. Mhotspot is so simple that a single mouse click creates the hotspot.
The newly released version 4 of Mhotspot was released in February 2012 and is a fast 210 kb download, even though the Web site still shows it as version 3 (www.mhotspot.com/download.html). The Mhotspot software requires Windows 7, but being the skeptic, I downloaded it to an XP laptop — and it would not install on the XP machine. Mhotspot ran flawlessly on my newer Windows 7 laptop, though.
The setup process was fast and simple, consisting of only two steps without any intricate configurations. There is no traditional installation, as the program is ready to run when downloaded. First, I had to choose a name for my hotspot and then create a password with a minimum of eight characters. The Mhotspot window appeared offering the choice to start or stop the hotspot, or set up its properties. If a configuration is necessary, it is a "one time" event and does not have to be repeated in order to use Mhotspot in the future. For those who may need visual instructions on downloading and running Mhotspot, there is a sequential set of graphical instructions on the Mhotspot Web site and a three minute YouTube video clearly demonstrates the process.
Using the "how to" instructions on the Mhotspot Web site, it took me about three minutes to download the software, run it, choose a hotspot name and password, and set my Internet connection to "share." As soon as it was ready, my audience could wirelessly access the Internet using the hotspot name and password that I created. Fully cognizant that the more users sharing the available bandwidth the less connection speed available to each, I was still able to demonstrate what I needed to show, and the participants were able to do what they needed to do. In the group that was sharing my hotspot was a small assortment of laptops, smart phones and iPads, along with an obsolescent netbook. After I completed my session, I clicked on the "Stop" button on the Mhotspot window, and the hotspot was shut down.
Later in the day, during an impromptu get together, I was asked by a self-proclaimed geek how I made my laptop into a hotspot without using a WiFi router, which he doubted could be done. Since there was an available Ethernet connection, I plugged in my computer, clicked on the Mhotspot icon on my desktop, clicked on the "start" button, gave him my hotspot name and password, and in seconds he was connected to the Internet wirelessly through my laptop without the use of a router! The Mhotspot had remembered all of my settings, and simply clicking on the icon and starting the utility made my computer a hotspot again.
I can visualize several scenarios where Mhotspot on a Windows 7 computer can be useful. As happened recently in the Dallas hotel, there was only a single Ethernet connection available in the hotel room and more than one of us wanted to access the Internet at the same time; Mhotspot allowed us to do that. Similar arrangements can be made in classrooms, meeting rooms and other places where people need to share Internet access.
Somebody somewhere must have found a use for Mhotspot as the CNet Web site download.com shows the Mhotspot software as the current No. 3 most popular downloaded "Wireless Network Utility," with over 154,000 copies downloaded, of which over 5,700 copies were downloaded in the preceding week. Mhotspot has been reviewed and rated by several of the reputable software evaluation services, most giving Mhotspot their highest ratings. These rating services include "Editors' Choice" awards from Brothersoft and FreeWareFiles, and "Excellent Ratings" from Download3000 and FreeWindows. For those concerned with the safety of downloading software, Softpedia tested the download, and certified it with its "100 percent" rating, indicating that it is totally free of any types of spyware, adware or viruses.
The Mhotspot icon proudly sits on the desktop of my Windows 7 computer, ready to wirelessly share my Internet connection on an instant's notice.

Cattle comfort in the stall
Keeping cattle healthy and happy means you must provide an environment that is clean yet comfortable. But shoveling a pile of sand, straw, or wood shavings into stall after stall can be backbreaking and time-consuming. Devices like the McLanahan Stall Filler, the Tomahawk Dual Chop Straw Shredder, and the Woodchuck Bedding Spreader make stall maintenance a breeze.
McLanahan stall filler
This Stall Filler (shown above) is specifically designed to handle sand. There is no metal-to-metal contact when sand is present. Depending on sand type and conditions, you can fill more than 100 stalls in 2.5 minutes and discharge sand from either side up to 15 feet.
The unit has a 10-cubic-yard (heaped) or 8-cubic-yard (struck level) capacity. Trailer or truck models are available. Controls are electric over hydraulic, which means the hopper belt, discharge belt tilt, speed, and direction are all controlled from the tractor seat.
List price starts at $35,000. To learn more about this product, visit www.mclanahan.com.
Tomahawk dual chop straw shredder
The Dual Chop Straw Shredder from Tomahawk (shown below right) is available in three models: 808, 8080, and 8080WB. They come in mounted or trailer units.
This one machine can spread long straw or produce short straw with its retractable knife and screen system. It produces short straw with the knives engaged and the material passing through the screen. To produce long straw, knives and blanking plate are raised, allowing the material to pass straight from the cross beater into the discharge rotor.
The self-loading flared tailgate loads round or rectangular bales of straw.
Everything, including the movement of the knife system, is electronically controlled from the tractor seat via the machine's built-in spool valve. The swivel chute, with 280° of rotation, is an added bonus when using in awkward areas or confined spaces.
The modular construction means maintenance is easy because everything can be taken apart.
List price starts at $30,000. Visit Walco USA, Inc. at www.walcoequipment.com to find out more.
Woodchuck bedding system
How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? If it's the Woodchuck Bedding Spreader (shown below left), it can spread your shavings, sand, and more in a matter of minutes.
This machine is a side-discharge bucket designed for single-handed operation. Apply bedding material using the host vehicle's onboard hydraulics. Bedding is smoothly and quietly spread in a uniform pattern to the front of the stall from either the left or the right and is driven by protected hydraulic motors.
The leading edge of all hoppers is constructed of hard steel for greater effectiveness and longer life. The unit is finished with powder-coated paint.

Team wants to advance further in playoffs
Staff writer
The Marion Warriors' summer has centered on improving after finishing 2012 with a first-round playoff loss to Garden Plain.
"We had never been before, so it was cool to know that we could make it," offensive and defensive lineman Nick Meyer said. "We're aiming there and beyond this year."
Meyer also noted more players had been coming to offseason workouts than in the past.
"We've gotten a lot better than last summer, working harder," quarterback Taylor Heidebrecht said.
Head coach Grant Thierolf hopes the experience gave the team perspective on the level of work needed to go further.
"I think we've worked hard enough during the summer to get to that level," he said. "Now it's just a matter of putting it all together."
The Warriors return seven starters on offense and defense, with every projected starter a junior or senior.
"I think we're going to be more prepared coming in, and continue to get better as the season goes on," Heidebrecht said.
Last season's main fullback, Brody Carroll, graduated, but Thierolf is confident replacements Adam Janzen, Trevor Kruse, and Caleb Williams can complement Heidebrecht, who led the team in rushing in 2012.
"Caleb's a little more a power runner, Trevor is more of a perimeter-type, get outside and run, and Adam just does a nice job of combining the two of them," Thierolf said. "We're looking forward to seeing what they'll do."
Thierolf said there is a lot of depth in the offensive backfield between quarterback and the three running back positions.
"Our running backs are all interchangeable," he said. "We've got a couple of kids who can line up as a tight end one play, a slot back, and then go to wide receiver."
Several offensive linemen can play multiple positions as well, where the interior of the line returns.
Grif Case, James Jones, Jacob Baldwin, and Zach Robson will be used as wide receivers.
The same amount of experience returns to a defense that gave up an average of 43 points per game in losses in 2012.
"When we did get beat last year, we gave up a lot of points, but we can't do that," Thierolf said. "We can't give up the 30-yard passes, 40-yard passes, 70-yard runs if we're going to be the top team that we can be."
Thierolf said better team defense will start up front, where three of four defensive linemen return in John Nordquist, Morgan Wheeler, and Nick Meyer. Senior Zac Lewman will start at defensive tackle also.
Linebackers Caleb Williams, Kyle Palic, and Trevor Kruse return, adding Janzen at one of the inside positions.
Heidebrecht and Robson will join Jones in the defensive backfield.
"James can be as good as James wants to be," Thierolf said. "He's got all the talent. If he wants to shut down a side of the field, he can shut it down."
An all-league selection last year, Case will again kick for the Warriors, and either Kyle Palic or Williams will punt.
"The big thing is us playing together, doing everything that we need to do, taking care of their jobs on the field, and just playing as hard as they can for Marion High School," Thierolf said. "If we can do that, then I'll stack us up against anybody."

Anorexia in Dogs
What is anorexia?
Anorexia is a decrease or loss of appetite for food. While hunger is a physically driven, appetite is mentally driven. There are two types of anorexia: true anorexia and "pseudo-anorexia." Both result in decreased food intake, but a dog with pseudo-anorexia wants to eat (is hungry) but can't because of difficulty picking up, chewing, or swallowing food or some other cause (see below). Regardless of whether a dog is dealing with true or pseudo-anorexia, decreased appetite and decreased food intake are outward signs that should be taken seriously. These signs may indicate potentially life-threatening underlying conditions. Poor appetite or refusal to eat is strongly associated with illness and is a common reason for dog owners to seek veterinary care.
"Decreased appetite and decreased food intake may indicate potentially life-threatening underlying
conditions and should be taken seriously."
What causes anorexia and pseudo-anorexia?
There are many potential explanations for decreased food consumption, and the first, most important step is to determine whether the dog has true or pseudo-anorexia. Does she want to eat but can't, or is she truly not interested in eating? Your veterinarian will want to take a detailed history to begin to differentiate between the two conditions. Next, he or she will give your dog a thorough physical examination to try to determine the presence of an obvious physical explanation for decreased food consumption. Finally, diagnostic tests will be used to aid in uncovering a reason for decreased appetite. These may include laboratory tests such as a complete blood count (CBC) and a serum chemistry profile, electrolytes (mineral balance), radiographs (x-rays) of the chest and abdomen, ultrasound studies, and (depending on other findings), more invasive diagnostics like endoscopy.
Potential explanations for pseudo-anorexia in which a dog wants to eat but won't or has difficulty eating include:
- Stomatitis, gingivitis, or esophagitis—inflammation and pain within the tissues of the mouth and throat.
- Advanced periodontal disease, which may include loose teeth.
- An abscess behind the eye.
- Pain in the mastication (chewing) muscles.
- Pain in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ).
- Salivary gland disease.
- Nervous system disease affecting chewing and swallowing.
- Cancer/tumors of the mouth, tongue, tonsil, or associated structures.
- Pain anywhere in the body. Chronic pain is very distracting. It may interfere with appetite or with the dog's ability to reach her food and water dishes on the floor if, for instance, she is dealing with back pain.
True anorexia can also have various causes:
- Systemic disease, whether it involves infection or an organ system dysfunction, can lead to anorexia.
- Psychological explanations, such as stress, altered routines, changes in the environment, or undesirable/unpalatable food.
- Exposure to poisons.
- Immune system imbalance/disease.
- Inability to smell. Scent is an important contributor to palatability of food and appetite.
- Any painful condition can suppress appetite.
- Cancers of all types.
- Gastrointestinal (GI) blockage.
- Stomach or intestinal ulcer.
- Nausea from any cause.
- High environmental temperature.
- Medication side effects.
How are anorexia and pseudo-anorexia treated?
"To treat decreased food intake, whether from trueanorexia or pseudo-anorexia, it is critical to identify
and correct the underlying problem."
To treat decreased food intake, whether from true anorexia or pseudo-anorexia, it is critical to identify and correct the underlying problem. That part of treatment will depend completely on what the diagnosis is. Associated or additional treatment will focus on treating/managing related symptoms. For instance, if the dog is dehydrated, then intravenous fluids may be needed. Any nausea must be eliminated. If it is appropriate, your veterinarian may prescribe a short-term appetite stimulant such as cyproheptadine or mirtazapine. If there is a mineral imbalance like low potassium, which can interfere with normal appetite, then a potassium supplement will be added. It may be useful to enhance the palatability of the dog's food. Your veterinarian can help you with specific recommendations, but simple steps to try include:
- Adding a canned formulation to the diet.
- Heating food to approximately body temperature (~100°F [38°C]).
- Adding a bit of low-sodium chicken, vegetable, or beef broth for flavor enhancement.
- Temporarily home cooking with guidance from your veterinarian as to appropriate recipes.
Occasionally, an anorectic dog who has an underlying metabolic disorder must receive nutrients but is unwilling to eat. In these cases, it may be necessary for your veterinarian to place a feeding tube into the esophagus, stomach, or small intestine through a small incision in the skin. Feeding tubes are generally not considered heroic interventions, but they are nearly always life-saving. Food and medication can be delivered with very little stress on the dog. If the GI system is capable of digestion, it should be used, even if that means delivering food through a tube for a while. If the GI system is not working for some reason, your veterinarian may recommend what is called parenteral feeding, in which nutrition is provided intravenously. Parenteral feeding is a specialized, complicated technique generally performed by a specialist in a referral center. Tube feeding and parenteral nutrition are most often undertaken as "bridge" procedures until the dog can eat on her own.
What is my takeaway message?
"Take changes in your dog's eating behavior seriously, and get your veterinarian involved early."
Regardless of the reason for decreased food intake, changes in eating habits and patterns warrant investigation. Lost or decreased appetite may signal something serious and may contribute to a serious consequence or outcome. Take changes in your dog's eating behavior seriously, and get your veterinarian involved early.

The Pimm's Cup/
Thanksgiving-narrative guest post by Leslie Deak, who previously chronicled for us her experiences of drinking ice creaminess while having pizza stolen by an NBA player.
The following is a story of the wrong cocktail in the wrong place at a really, really wrong time. But it all works out in the end. So, three wrongs make a right, I guess.
My husband's family has a tradition of gathering together for Thanksgiving, and last year was no exception. We found ourselves ensconced in one of the well-appointed residences at Jekyll Island Club in Georgia. After a lovely Thanksgiving morning bike ride, a freak accident involving another member of the family resulted in an ER visit, thus leaving me and my sister-in-law to our own devices for most of the day. (Don't worry, everyone is okay.) With unplanned downtime, I considered my options. Hey, look -- the club has a bar!
I perched myself in one of the rockers on the porch of the old hotel, overlooking the marshes at a distance. I waited until a respectable noon (well, it was mostly noon!) before moseying up to the bar. MISTAKE.
The bar was mobbed with well-heeled southerners meeting their families for The Big Feast. The tiny U-shaped bar was manned by one efficient, polite, overworked bartender with a line three people deep around the perimeter. As I approached the bar, I overheard one patron inquiring as to how the bartender made a Pimm's Cup. "Pimm's, ginger ale, and a twist of lime," was the response. Intrigued, i asked what Pimm's tasted like. The bartender, patron, and her companion all looked at me with bemused expressions. "It's just... Pimm's," said the bartender. Suddenly, I was quite self-conscious of my three heads, but proceeded nonetheless.
(Later research revealed that Pimm's is a British liqueur, and Pimm's Cups are generally considered to be a summer drink. I was in southern Georgia over Thanksgiving.)
Feigning sudden remembrance of the liqueur and its heritage (mind the gap!), I told the bartender that I'd give it a whirl. I waited patiently for my turn, and was rewarded with a gingery, spicy, citrusy concoction that perfectly married the turkey-and-chilly-weather vibe of Turkey Day with the porch-sitting warm weather around me.
I was hooked, and ordered the same cocktail once (or five times) more. Hey -- repetition makes it easy for the overworked bartender to recognize you and your drink! I sat on that porch, sipping Pimm's Cups, watching southern toddlers in seersucker suits and fancy dresses run around on the lawn in front of me. Throughout the afternoon, I was repeatedly deployed as the photographer for family portraits, a request I was happy to indulge. As it turns out, the Pimm's may have enhanced my arteeeeeestic vision.
Pimm's Cups and the Jekyll Island Club made a potentially bad situation into a lovely memory that I can bring back with a simple cocktail.
The Pimm's Cup
2 ounces Pimm's No. 1
4 ounces ginger ale (ginger beer tempered with sprite will work in a pinch)
Twist of lime
Fill a Collins glass with ice. Add Pimm's and ginger ale. Twist a peel of lime above the top of the glass and drop in. Swizzle well and serve.
Tasting Notes
Leslie wants to mention to y'all that a mix of ginger beer and lemon-lime soda can nicely sub for ginger ale.
I'd like to mention that many, many, many sources will tell you that a proper Pimm's Cup contains not just a citrus twist, but large pieces of unmuddled cucumber and strawberries (and sometimes the meat of citrus fruit as well, not just peel). However, clearly Leslie's bartender was going by the bottle. While its back label does not identify this recipe for a Pimm's Cup per se, it does state quite plainly, "Fill a tall glass halfway with ice. Add 1.5 oz Pimm's. Top off with ginger ale or lemon-lime soda. Garnish with a slice of lemon." No mention of other fruits. I also happen to believe that one of the reasons a Pimm's Cup gets a bad rep as the unpalatable equivalent of Marmite is because people think they have to be proper and submit to the cukes. You can go your own way.

I'm sorry, all I can say, is that I couldn't stop myself.
Eco nursing pillow
You know, it was bad enough when we were being told we had to bring a shower curtain out with us...
Now we have to bring the bed too?
So discreet, who would notice you?

If You Have Been Affected By Eastenders...
Da..da..da.da..da. DA...DAAAAAAAHHHH..
"If you have been affected by anything in tonight's Eastenders, please phone....."
"Hello, how can I help...."
"We do understand tonight's episode has upset a great many people. How can we help, caller?"
*more sobbing*
"Please take your time. We're here to listen. I have a list of advice lines, and I can pass you on when I know what aspect you most need help with. I'll just sit and listen for a moment, okay?
*broken cries calm down* "Thank you for being there, I just didn't know where to start. I'm not sure what's upset me most. Is it okay if I just babble for a bit?"
"Certainly caller. There were many issues raised tonight, and my job is to find you the right support. In your own time."
"Okay, thank you. I'll just think a bit, about the bit that got me most upset. Do you have a helpline for people who've had bad breastfeeding experiences?"
"You found that part, when she wasn't able to breastfeed Tommy, distressing?"
"Oh yes, yes. The same thing happened to me, and I wasn't able to feed my baby, and I saw Ronnie tonight, and I thought... I thought, if only someone would tell her, what no one ever told me!"
"And what was that caller?"
"That you need to take your bra and dress off first. If only I'd known!" *sobs*
"I quite understand caller. Did you feel bullied by those who did breastfeed, I have a line here to a wonderful helpline paid for by an international baby food company, who understand the issues you were going through...?"
"No, no, I'm fine now, Jack was so helpful, going straight out and buying the formula, that calmed me down.... *begins wailing once more...*"
"In your own time, caller."
"Okay, I was wondering if you had a helpline about eating disorders?"
"We do... although...."
"... because clearly, with both babies being anorexic..."
"Well, you know, with both babies not needing food. Just lying there, silent, and awake, for hours and hours and hours on end, and not once crying for food. It was just so obvious that they had an unnaturally suppressed appetite. It doesn't make sense otherwise. I mean no one even checked a nappy!"
"Although, of course, that wasn't the most obvious trauma, as a viewer. Programmes just don't take their responsibility to the viewers, and their real lives, seriously... *sob*"
"That's why we are here... do you..."
"Do you have a helpline number for early signs of dementia?"
"Uhm, yes, ..."
"Oh good, that got me really upset, Roxy's memory loss."
"I'm sorry...?"
"When she was told that baby Tommy had died, and she completely forget the 5 minutes it took to get past Ronnie, as she was sure Ronnie was telling her baby James was dead, and then she stood there crying, and couldn't bear the pain. To forget that overnight... will her storyline develop about her early onset memory loss do you know..?"
"Ehm,.. no, sorry, we don't have those details."
"Pity. *cries again* This is really helping you know, talking it out. do you have a helpline for those unable to process sizes?"
"I'm sorry, I don't understand..?"
"You know, market stall holders who sell one size baby grow for a preemie, and an 8lb whopper term, and they both fit and no one can see the difference..?"
"Ehmm,, no.... "
"Pity. I suppose that's just a silly one though.... *hysterical tears*"
"There are no silly ones, caller, all our feelings are valid...."
"That's so nice for you to say. I feel better now. I think I can actually talk about the really upsetting bits now."
"I'm listening...."
"For instance... do you have a helpline for Lochia Anonymous?"
"Oh, I know it's silly, but I look at those two wonderful women, Kat & Ronnie, and I feel ashamed about my own experience. I mean there they are, in the same clothes, for over 14 hours, and they've slept in them, or run through the streets of London with a hospital gown on.. and they've not had to change their bleeding pads once."
"I'm sorry caller, we ask you not to swear, or use abusive language on calls."
"Please don't talk about *bleep* pads. Did you mean iPads?"
"No, I was talking about how ashamed I was, that I leaked after childbirth. It's obviously not normal."
"Do you want a childbirth support line...?"
"No. I'd rather just talk it through a bit longer, if that's all right with you?"
"You're in charge of the call, caller."
"Oh good. I was wondering 'tho... "
"Yes, caller...?"
"Do you have a helpline for those with sight impairment..?"
"Yes, but, again, I'm not sure..."
"Nothing, I suppose I'm being silly again. Maybe I need to step back from the events and look at it as TV?"
"If you think that will help you..."
"Well, it does. Do you have any helplines about TV?
"About TV...?"
"Yes, you know, maybe a Todorov Syndrome one?"
"I'm sorry caller...? "
"Well, Narrative Structure Failure then? You know, beginnings, middles, ends, not knowing what way they should go, not knowing when to actually move onto the next scene and stop looking at the same character for too long. Emotional Pornography and Soaps Helpline..? Have you got one of those?"
*frantic key pressing*
"Ehm, sorry caller, not quite sure ... just give me a moment...."
"Or maybe something to do with Cause & Effect? Logic and rational thought abuse?"
"Ah, we do have something here... the Spock's Smile Society.. they help you deal with plot twists that break inner logic for a cheap shot ending, would that help?"
"Maybe.... "
*clicking of keys"
"Mmm... not sure that's your best bet actually, another file is opening up.. never found this part of the system before... We do have a few on Delayed Ejaculation... how long can you overshoot the shot...?"
"That sounds like we're in the right area.... "
"Caller, I think I know which helpline you need!"
"Really? Oh Good, which one?"
"We have one named Support For Pig Shit Ignorant BBC Programme Makers. It's internal, so I can put you through directly."
"Oh, that sounds the right one, please put me through."
"Certainly. Good Luck, I hope we've helped this evening. Transferring now."
Welcome to the BBC Support for Pig Shit Ignorance Helpline. Please listen carefully to the following options
If you are a middle class professional, who wishes to write drama about subjects you have no research in, and no interest in, please press No 1, and leave your contact details. We will contact you shortly.
If you are a female middle class professional, willing to defend in print, all BBC storylines about how hard it is to be a career women and be taken seriously as a mother, and I formula fed, CIOd, naughty stepped and left my baby with a Nanny 18 hours a day... and all my children are just fine and we have a wonderful relationship when they come back from boarding school... press 2 and leave your husband's contact details. We will check with him if the 90 hour a week workload we'll expect of you, is fine with him. Unless you are divorced, in which case hang up.
If you are not middle class, and you are phoning to complain about a factual accuracy contained in any BBC programme, please press 3 and leave your contact details. We will get an adult literacy scheme to contact you, and they can teach you to read and write. Then you can understand our programmes betterer.
If you are a person who has experienced, directly, a situation portrayed in a BBC programme, and wish to complain about our accuracy or ridiculous attempts to shoe horn plot into any shape we desire... please hang up and eff off. We don't make programmes just for you. Try to think of the rest of the nation. You are not qualified to understand Good Drama, dickhead.
Thank you for calling the BBC. A thought before you go: have you paid your licence fee?"
