On Saturday I was deciding on a dessert to take to our families Halloween party, and dreamed up these Candy Corn Rice Krispie Cupcakes! I haven't met a kid who doesn't like a Rice Krispie treat, and thought turning some into 'cupcakes' that look like Candy Corn would be super cute!
They were really easy to make (regardless of the long instructions. Promise!) and they were really yummy! I love Rice Krispie treats that keep a chewy texture, and these fit the bill! Needless to say, they were a big hit at the party. Everyone loved them!
Candy Corn Rice Krispie Cupcakes
Recipe by: Holly Lofthouse
9 cups crispy rice cereal, divided
1 1/2 sticks butter
2 (16 ounce) bags mini marshmallows, divided
yellow gel food dye
orange gel food dye (or red and yellow to mix)
1 (16 ounce) container Vanilla frosting
1 cup powdered sugar
Candy corns
Directions: Spray two 12-cup regular muffin tins with non-stick spray. Set aside.
In a large saucepan, over medium heat, melt a half stick (1/4 cup) of butter. When butter is almost completely melted, add in 8 ounces (half bag) of the mini marshmallows. Stir constantly until marshmallows start to melt. Squeeze in 3-4 drops of yellow food dye (more or less, depending on how dark a yellow you want). Stir well to combine color into melted marshmallows. Remove from heat.
Pour 3 cups of the crispy rice cereal into the yellow marshmallow mixture, quickly but gently stir to combine.
(The next part is sticky! So be patient, and use non-stick spray on your spoon to help distribute the mixture into the tins)
Add about 2-3 Tablespoons of yellow rice krispie mixture into each of the muffin cups. Let stand for a minute or two to slightly cool, and then using the back of a spoon, press the mixture into the bottom of the cups. Repeat with all 24 muffin cups. Then set aside.
In another large saucepan, over medium heat, melt the remaining butter (1/2 cup). Once butter is almost melted, pour in 1 (16 ounce) bag of marshmallows into the melted butter. Stir constantly until marshmallows are just about melted, and then squeeze in 3-4 drops of orange food dye. Stir well to combine color into melted marshmallows. Remove from heat.
Pour in 6 cups of the crispy rice cereal into the orange marshmallow mixture, and quickly but gently stir to combine.
Take 1/2 cup of the orange rice krispie mixture and place it into each muffin cup, on top of the yellow mixture. Repeat with all 24 muffin cups. Then with the back of a greased spoon, press orange mixture into the cups. Let stand atleast an hour or two to let rice krispies cupcakes set. (Or you can loosely cover them with saran wrap, and place in fridge for 30 minutes)
Meanwhile, pour the container of vanilla frosting into a medium bowl. Add in the cup of powdered sugar, and using a whisk, whisk together until all combined. Scoop frosting mixture into a decorating bag fitted with a tip of your choice (or you can use a sandwich baggie and cut off one side).
Gently remove each rice krispie cupcake from the pans. (They should come out very easy). Pipe frosting onto each cupcake and decorate each with a candy corn.
Makes 24 cupcakes.

1052: Every Major's Terrible
|Every Major's Terrible
Title text: Someday I'll be the first to get a Ph. D in 'Undeclared'.
The header notes that the song is based on the satirical Major-General's Song from Gilbert and Sullivan's 1879 comic opera The Pirates of Penzance. The song satirises the idea of the "modern" educated British Army officer of the latter 19th century. (Major general being a military rank in Britain and many other countries.) See a YouTube video of "I Am the Very Model of A Modern Major's General" to get the tune. The lyrics are commonly rewritten, the most famous rewrite likely being Tom Lehrer's Elements song, which is also available online. His other suggestion, "Supercalifragilisticexpialadocious", from Mary Poppins, is another fast-paced patter-song with a somewhat similar tune, though it doesn't fit quite so well, and the match falls apart at the end of the fourth line, when the "Um-diddly"s start up - still, it's better than nothing. "My eyes are fully open" from Gilbert and Sullivan's Ruddigore would be a better fit, if anyone knew that that didn't already know the Major General's song.
There are at least two performances of this xkcd song online: a video with each major acted out by SFU Choir - Every Major's Terrible and a solo with piano: xkcd's 'Every Major's Terrible' Is Now A Real Song By Ben Miller. The transcription is also shown for each of them, so it is more easy to understand the text.
The panels show Randall's rewritten lyrics to the song. Every verse ends with "Just put me down as 'Undecided' - Every Major's Terrible", which gives the strip its name (and "Major's Terrible" is similar enough to "Major General", the corresponding lyrics in the original version, to serve as a callback).
Oh, and before we get going, in the title text, "Undeclared" is sometimes called "General Studies". Most U.S. universities will not let you get a degree in this, let alone an advanced degree such as a Ph. D. Also, it should probably be noted that this song refers to U.S.-like university systems, in other countries, one will study little to nothing outside your major, making it more-or-less impossible to be undecided as to major.
Verse 1
- Panel 1, Philosophy's just math sans rigor, sense, and practicality
- The stick figure is posed as Rodin's The Thinker, a common symbol for Philosophy. The equation in the background (two plus light bulb equals sailboat) is nonsense, hence "math sans rigor, sense or practicality"
- Panel 2, And Math's just physics unconstrained by precepts of reality.
- A cannon is firing. However, instead of going in the normal parabolic arc (a precept of reality), the cannonball splits and splits again like a binary tree. The cannonballs also demonstrate the Banach–Tarski paradox, which says a 3D ball can be cut up into pieces and reassembled into 2 balls identical to the first, something which is only possible in a theoretical universe made of infinite points, instead of the real universe which is made up of a finite number of atoms.
- Panel 3, A Business Major's just a thing you get so you can graduate
- Business is the most common major, often seen as a practical choice applicable to a wide variety of careers, or, as the comic illustrates, preferred by those who just want an easy way to graduate.
- Panel 4, And Chemistry's for stamp collectors high on methylacetate.
- Stamp collecting refers to the famous quote by Ernest Rutherford, "All science is either physics or stamp collecting." Methyl acetate is the solvent used to remove stamps from their envelope. The stamps in the background form the periodic table of the chemical elements.
- Panels 5 and 6, Why anyone who wants a job would study Lit's a mystery / Unless their only other choice were something like Art History.
- These lines refer to subjects where a majority of graduates will end up unemployed or eventually working in a field outside their majors. Topics such as Literature or Art History are often and historically said to be in this category -- although from actual statistics, it is clear that there are far worse majors these days.
- Panels 7 and 8, A BA in Communications guarantees that you'll achieve / A little less than if you'd learned to underwater basket-weave
- Underwater basket weaving is a commonly used metaphor for any college major that is easy or worthless. "Communications" is a major chosen by people interested in news broadcasting or other media. For why that might be criticised, see http://bad-pr.tumblr.com/. Note that, if following the original music exactly, the line "A little less than if you'd learned to underwater basket-weave." will be repeated three times by the chorus after these panels.
- Panel 9, I'd rather eat a Fowler's toad than major in Biology,
- A Fowler's toad is a relatively common toad in the eastern US, and toads generally are not good eating. As well, a stereotype of studying biology is a frog dissection, which is likely part of the reference, albeit oblique.
- Panel 10, And Social Psych is worse than either Psych or Sociology.
- social psychology is compared to sociology (study of humans in society) and psychology (study of human minds); the first is represented by a mad chainsaw wielder in company, and the second by a mad chainsaw wielder by himself - the chainsaw wielder being stereotypical examples of "madness".
- Panels 11 and 12, The thought of picking any one of these is too unbearable, / Just put me down as "Undecided" - every major's terrible.
- End of the first verse. Every verse ends with some variation of this couplet, and in the original tune, each of these couplets are repeated by the chorus afterwards.
- Unbearable and terrible rhyme for people who have the Mary-merry merger.
Verse 2
- Panel 13, Now, if you can't prognosticate, that's OK in Seismology,
- This refers to the inability of seismology to reliably predict catastrophic earthquakes, even after centuries of extensive research.
- Panel 14, But if your hindsight's weak as well, you'd best stick to Theology.
- The formal logic proposition shown in the illustration, "X ∴ ∃X", says "I say there's this thing called X, therefore, there exists this thing called X". This is basically what the bizarrely popular ontological argument for God boils down to. (Briefly, it asks you to imagine the best possible deity. A God like that that exists is better than one that doesn't. But we said we were imagining the best possible deity. Therefore, we fail logic, I mean, God exists.)
- Panel 15, CS will make each day a quest to find a missing close-paren.
- "CS" is short for "Computer Science." Most programming languages use parentheses as part of their syntax, and often have multiply-nested parenthetical expressions. This is especially true of Lisp. It is often difficult for a programmer to determine where the unbalanced parenthesis begins or ends when the code and parentheses are not properly formatted and indented.
- Panel 16, Virology will guarantee you'll never get a hug again.
- Virology is the study of infectious diseases. The symbol above the central figure is the biohazard symbol, implying that people who study infectious diseases (and are therefore located near them at some points in time) should be shunned like the plague, because they're probably carrying it.
- Panel 17, I.T. prepares you for a life of fighting with PCs nonstop.
- "I.T." is short for "Information Technology", a degree for people who maintain computer systems. If there is a need for an I.T. position (in which I.T. Professionals are employed) there are computers which need fixing - hence the I.T. Professional is always fixing computers, which may or may not have been "broken" by users.
- Panel 18, As Pratchett said, "Geography's just physics slowed with trees on top."
- This is a slightly amended quote from Discworld author Terry Pratchett, from his book "The Last Continent". The actual quote is "Geography is just physics slowed down, with a couple of trees stuck in it." - but that doesn't scan.
- Panel 19, Though physics seems to promise you a Richard Feynman-like career,
- Richard Feynman was a 20th-century physicist known for his sense of fun, including being photographed for one of his books while holding a bongo drum.
- Panel 20, The wiki page for "Physics Major" redirects to "Engineer."
- A redirect on Wikipedia is a page which immediately sends the visitor to a different page. This implies that the title of the first is either a synonym or a sub-topic of the second. Physics majors usually learn to code, and the standard joke is that they invariably get hired as computer programmers after graduation. The Wikipedia page physics major didn't actually exist when this comic was published. It was created the same day, but as a redirect to physics education. In the subsequent days, there were dozens of instances of people changing it to redirect to engineer, usually reverted within minutes. As with the underwater basket-weaving line in the first verse, after the soloist sings this, the line would be repeated three times by the chorus.
- Panels 21 and 22, They say to study history or find yourself repeating it, / But all that it prepares you for is forty years of teaching it.
- This uses a version of a quote by George Santayana (although often attributed to others as well), Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it as a reason to study history - only to be followed by an indication that by studying history as a major, you will only be prepared to become a history teacher - and you will then spend the rest of your life teaching history.
- Panels 23 and 24, I recognize my four-year plan's at this point not repairable, / But put me down as "Undecided" - every major's terrible.
- End of the second verse. A "four-year plan" is the list of all the courses a student plans to include in his/her degree program. If you change majors every semester, or do not decide on one until too late, this list gets really difficult to turn into any one degree.
Verse 3
- Panel 25, Astronomers all cringe when they hear "Supermoon" or "Zodiac".
- Supermoon is a term invented by astrologers in the 1970s, with no significance in astronomy other than being the co-occurrence of orbital perigee and full-moon. But it comes up often in the press, linked to supernatural behavior. The zodiac is the circular band in the sky containing the apparent path of the sun, moon and planets. Most often when people talk about it, they're referring to astrology and horoscopes and other pseudo-scientific notions which often lead to conversations which are frustrating to astronomers.
- Panel 26, Agronomy's a no-go; I'm a huge agorophobiac.
- Agronomy is the science of farming, while agoraphobia is the fear of wide open spaces. Fields, where most farming happens, are wide open spaces.
- Panel 27, I'm too ophiophobic to consider Herpetology,
- Herpetology is the study of reptiles and amphibians, while ophiophobia is the fear of snakes. A bad combination.
- Panel 28, And I can't stomach any part of Gastroenterology.
- As the pun suggests, gastroenterology is the study of the human digestive system.
- Panel 29, While Pre-Med gives you twitchy-eyed obsession with your GPA,
- Pre-med is a major chosen by students hoping to go on to medical school and eventually become doctors. Medical school is extremely competitive and usually requires a very high undergraduate GPA for prospective students.
- Panel 30, a poetry degree bespeaks bewildering naïveté.
- The text is in all lower-case and strangely laid out compared to text in other panels. All-lower-case and "free" layout are both associated with 20th century "Modernist" poetry, especially the works of e.e.cummings.
- Panels 31 and 32, TV's behind the rush into Forensic Criminology / (Or so claims meta-academic epidemiology).
- This refers to how forensic criminology shows, like CSI, that often dramatize, exaggerate or otherwise confuse the science behind forensics, give people unrealistically glamorous views of the career, thus encouraging them to join it. Epidemiology is the study of causes and effects of events and trends. This is, again, the point where the chorus joins in, as in the previous two verses.
- Panels 33 and 34, By dubbing Econ "dismal science" adherents exaggerate; / The "dismal"'s fine - it's "science" where they patently prevaricate.
- "Econ" is short for "Economics". Thomas Carlyle declared economice "the dismal science" in the Victorian era. Economists claim that economics is a science like any other; however, as the predictive power of all economic theories are exceedingly weak compared to any other science, this is disputed by those outside the field at times, and, of course, by this song.
- Panels 35 and 36, In terms of choices, I'd say only Sophie's was comparable. / Just put me down as "Undecided" - every major's terrible!
- End of the third verse, with yet another variant on the closing couplet. Choosing a Major is compared to Sophie's Choice, which is any dilemma where choosing one cherished person or thing over the other will result in the death or destruction of the other, derived from the theme of the novel, which has also been turned into a romantic drama film (in which a mother must choose which of her children will die).

-- 184.108.40.206 22:04, 7 December 2012
- Hobo serial killer with chainsaw? Social psych sounds awesome!
- 184.108.40.206 22:42, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
In panel 22 (History), what's the theme connecting the years 1935, 1969, and 1991? Wwoods (talk) 15:40, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
- 1935 is certainly related to some event that lead to the WWII (a quick look at the Wikipedia page for 1935 show that was the year Hitler rearmed Germany), which paved the way to the Cold War. 1969 was Apollo 11, a high moment of the Cold War, as the USA essentially won the race to the Moon. And 1991 was the year that the USSR dissolved, officially ending the Cold War. Sir labreck (talk) 18:37, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
- 1935, Harlem race riot; 1969, race riot in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; 1991, Rodney King race riots... 2014-2016??? 18.104.22.168 03:33, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
- Although the race riot dates match, I think war related is more likely. 1935 (WWII), 1969 (Vietnam), 1991 (Gulf War) I'm not sure what the common thread is, though, and 'war' is too broad 126.96.36.199 20:37, 30 September 2018 (UTC)
- WWII began in 1939. The Vietnam War was 1955-1975 and Gulf War is ambiguous. Just sayin... --Dgbrt (talk) 20:34, 1 October 2018 (UTC)
This explanation is very small for that big comic. I am starting to add the transcript and after that I will do more investigations to that opera. This should be the key to explain all the panels.--Dgbrt (talk) 19:13, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
- The answer won't lie in the song, trust me. Pirates of Penzance is probably my favorite comic opera out there. Plus Randall gives that the lie in saying you can use the tune from the elements song (a well-known parody) or even Marry Poppins (similar tune, but not exactly the same). I think each panel is just a reference to the words, I don't think that Randall is actually involving The Pirates of Penzance in any way other than the tune. 126.96.36.199 20:53, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
Feynman was also known for being a ladies' man, so the two girls in panel 19 are significant IMHO. --18.104.22.168 13:51, 25 December 2013 (UTC)
Needs explanation what does it mean to choose a major, and what major is in this context. Note every reader is from U.S.A.; different countries have different higher education systems. --JakubNarebski (talk) 10:56, 9 January 2014 (UTC)
- True that. 'Graduation' in Brazil means 'Undergraduation' in the US. 188.8.131.52 03:51, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
"Math's just physics unconstrained by precepts of reality" - that isn't a binary tree, its a bifurcation diagram from chaos theory. And, sorry, it has nothing to do with the Banach–Tarski paradox - that's just mindless name-dropping. Davidbak (talk) 20:54, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
- Are you sure it is not just an illustration of Banach-Tarski, arguably the most famous example where mathematical reality and (physical) intuition diverge? Why would the verse be illustrated by a bifurcation diagram (which I think, and I might be a bit ignorant here, is a concept pretty much only found in the "applied side" of mathematics, which is constrained by precepts of reality)? And even if it were a bifurcation diagram, why would the mass of the balls change? (again, I am perhaps showcasing my ignorance; if so, please be gentle) Finally, i would deem the bifurcation explanation a bit too obscure to be the real deal - a panel which is only understood by somewhat specialized mathematicians seems strange to me, especially given that all other frames contain understandable references. 220.127.116.11 13:38, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

Panel 30: possibly iambic septameter126.96.36.199
--- I think that the reason for not getting hugs in panel 16 is more to do with the fact that as a virus researcher you would be aware of how easy it is to get a virus/disease and so you would keep away from people and be worried about hugs because of that. (Sorry if I've done something wrong this is my first comment!) Yxquillio (talk) 08:24, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
Another song I guess could provide a good match is "Can You Stop the Calvary?" by Jona Lewie (or "Where's the Modding API" if you're a YOGSCAST fan like me. :)) --JayRulesXKCD (talk) 11:50, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
"End of the first verse where Cueball tells his academic advisor that he is undecided as every major's terrible. He even throws away his study guide." Are you sure it's not a course catalog? 18.104.22.168 10:33, 19 June 2017 (UTC)
I think I should add that Pratchett used that quote to prove that geography was not a boring science, as it is physics, which is exciting, with some trees on it. Just a thought.MrBookBoy (talk) 01:30, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

Ronald Duncan and Kathleen Ferrier <Home
Kathleen Ferrier was (and still is) one of the world's great singers. Her appeal transcends all ages and every generation, more so perhaps than any other singer. She died over fifty years ago, yet is still remembered and today her voice is still heard and loved by millions around the world. (Kathleen Ferrier Society website.)
Born in 1912 she died in 1953, aged only 41. 2012 is her Centenary year. Duncan's libretto for Britten's The Rape of Lucretia was sung by her in the first production of the opera at Glyndebourne in 1946.
When I turned round again, she had taken her hat off and loosened her hair. Now she was not pretty, she was beautiful.
Kathleen Ferrier first met Ronald Duncan when she came for an audition at Benjamin Britten's flat in St John's Wood in London. Duncan was writing the libretto for Britten's newest opera The Rape of Lucretia.... more
"I was still toying with the idea when my husband bet me a shilling I wouldn't do so" - this is how Kathleen's career began, discouraged at home from entering the Carlisle Festival singing contest. The centenary of Kathleen Ferrier's birth fell on 22 April 2012. She was born... more
Ferrier sang in only two operas, Lucretia (1946), and Gluck's Orfeo and Euridice (1762). In 1950 she wrote to Emmie Tillett, who organised her performances and repertoire: "The more I see of opera, the less I want to take part in it ..." more
Lucretia not written for Kathleen Ferrier
The anonymous reporter from the Preston Guardian is one of the first journalists to write that the title role of Lucretia was "specially written for her". Ronald Duncan's description of her being given Britten's "pencilled scribble of Act II Scene 1 [i.e. 2]", which "lay on the piano" means that this cannot be true ... more
Duncan tells the story of how flowers from the garden at Glyndebourne came to be used on stage during the première of Lucretia. Audrey Christie, wife of John Christie owner of the opera house, picked roses and other flowers to replace the "tawdry stage props". She did not know the theatre superstition ... more
Towards the end of his obituary, Duncan raises the question of Kathleen's private life. His story of what she said to him near Amsterdam in June or July 1951 mentions her unhappy marriage, not an easy issue to discuss in 1953. Ferrier had married ... more
Ronald Duncan describes her final ilIness: "it was as if she had been cast for sorrow and rehearsed for sorrow". This emphasis is slightly unusual, since all who knew her remember ... more

27th November 2018
Grayling's CEO Middle East & Africa, Loretta Ahmed, on the importance of a well-designed user journey, in the latest post on our #6x19 trends forecast.
The last Grayling trend for us to unveil is UX Everything. … and It's appropriate that it comes last because, as many of our trends blend and mesh together, UX Everything is almost the summation of them all. As brands become the sum of the experiences that customers have and share at every point of their journey, marketers need a design mind-set to craft interactions that make life simpler, happier and more personal.
Touchpoint bingo
If your brand can break down a barrier, or make your customer's life easier in a unique, clever way, you will score points with your audience. It's all about improving the customer experience, even if only in small ways.
2019 will see companies delight and differentiate by finding new opportunities to remove friction, or add value.
Take Beck's, selling canned beers shaped like a chalice, or Metro bank, enabling people to open a bank account with a selfie. Even Subway, injecting a bit of fun in their digital cookie acceptances by rewarding those who accepted with actual cookies.
Even corporate brands like Inmarsat are taking this design ethic to new lengths on their trade show stands, making them highly experiential, and employing incredible design.
With more than 50% of organisations looking to redirect their investments towards customer experience innovations, every touchpoint is being thought about, in order to enhance the user experience.
Made for you
Personalisation and customisation have been with us for a while, and aren't going anywhere. And with 80% of people more likely to do business with a company that offers them a personal experience, you can see why. As customers expect the personal touch, AI enables experiences tailored to their wants and needs.
Never Lose Your Bearings is a great example of a B2B campaign. Armed with a compass, map and personalised URL, prospects were able to navigate their way to a better fuel network with Esso Card. Fintech company Simple, a former client of ours, enables you to set your own spending limits and priorities, and the app will communicate with you about that.
The LunchGap from food delivery company Fotawa improves your lunch-eating experience, when you are running between meetings, turning your calendar into a personalized message platform. It sends you messages when you are too busy to go out and get lunch. Simply order through your calendar.
Zozo makes a 3D rendering of your body from your phone, so every time you order clothes from your phone they will be the right size.
As someone who travels a lot I can tell you the value of small details that make that experience easier, more frictionless. The Hilton app is great for that, with its digital keys, and the hotel industry is seeing many other innovations, like Rose, an AI Assistant at the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Vegas.
The invention test
The word 'disruption' is somewhat over-used but this really is something we are seeing in the realm of the customer buying journey.
A number of brands are using AR to show customers what their products would look like in their homes, and Wayfair in the US is one such example.
Beauty Pie is applying the subscription model to cosmetics, and beauty brand Pat McGrath has integrated with Spotify so customers can shop their products while listening to Spotify, without switching apps. The retail model is heading way beyond click and collect.
And when watch brand MVMT saw higher than expected engagement from men on their female targeted Pinterest page, they created a men's version. This saw twice the conversion rate and a 20% increase in incremental sales.
With 91% of marketers agreeing that a connected customer journey positively impacts customer loyalty, brands can't afford to ignore a well-designed user journey.
For more information about Grayling's #6x19 trends and how they may be applied to enhance your future communications, please contact our global head of strategic services, Jon Meakin.

Heart condition claims young dancer's life
ADAM Loiterton had the world at his feet.
But just weeks after being accepted into the prestigious Queensland Ballet, the brilliantly talented 19-year-old lay on the floor of the Newcastle Dance Academy to stretch last Monday and never got back up.
Relatives and friends have been left to mourn the premature death of the New Lambton teen, who had continued to excel in the world of dance despite battling a pre-existing heart condition.
It was this condition which ultimately took his life.
"He was destined for great things and was such a beautiful boy," ballet teacher Tracy Caldwell-Ostermann said yesterday.
Adam had been full-time at the Newcastle Dance Academy since completing his Higher School Certificate at the Hunter School of Performing Arts in 2010.
He had spent four weeks studying at the Montgomery Ballet in Alabama this year after international experts noticed his talent.
But his greatest feat to date in his short career was being accepted as a pre-professional to start at the Queensland Ballet next year.
After surviving through the cut-throat audition process, Adam had received a call just a few weeks ago from Queensland Ballet's artistic director, Li Cunxin, to say he was in.
"Adam was floating on a cloud that day," Ms Caldwell-Ostermann said.
They are now left to pick up the pieces after Adam finished a routine training program on Monday afternoon before lying on the floor to finish stretching, when his heart stopped.
"Words can't explain the devastation - our hearts are broken," she said.
"Adam was a very special young man. He was gentle and caring and a great friend to all our students.
"He was passionate and a beautiful soul and we are very blessed to have had the privilege to teach such a remarkable young man."
His parents John and Judy and sisters Anna and Kelly will join other relatives and friends at a service for Adam at St John's Anglican Church at Cooks Hill on Monday at 10.30am.

NEW ORLEANS — With no chance at making the playoffs, the New Orleans Saints wanted to close out the regular season on a high note against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday.
However, the same mistakes that haunted the Saints all year long were on full display in a 44-38 loss to the Panthers at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.
The Saints defense allowed 530 yards (273 rushing, 257 passing) and couldn't get off the field in crucial situations, allowing Carolina to convert 63 percent on third-down attempts.
Offensively, New Orleans racked up 441 yards (378 passing, 63 rushing) and held a brief 24-20 lead in the third quarter.
But a costly interception from Saints quarterback Drew Brees with 3:54 left in the third quarter led to 21 unanswered points for Carolina, putting the game out of reach.
The Saints, which ended the season at 7-9 overall, entered the game with no shot at making the playoffs, but they hoped a win would leave a good taste in their mouths heading into the offseason.
After the game, no one in the Saints locker room was pleased with the performance on Sunday.
"A loss is a loss," Saints interim coach Joe Vitt said. "You play 16 of these and to lose this the way we lost this, I don't care if this is the (season) opener, it's not good."
New Orleans receiver Lance Moore, who went over 1,000 yards receiving for the first time in his career on Sunday, echoed Vitt's frustrations, saying the Saints were motivated to end a long season with a good showing against Carolina.
"It's tough," Moore said. "Anytime you have a chance to finish the season off on a good note and you don't do that, it's disappointing. We'll learn from this though and get something good from this experience to set us up for next year."
New Orleans wanted to avoid setting a new mark for the most yards ever allowed in a season by a NFL defense.
But big days from Carolina quarterback Cam Newton (16-for-33, 248 yards passing) and running back DeAngelo Williams (21 carries, 210 rushing yards, two TDs) ended any chances of that.
The Saints finished the year allowing 7,042 yards, breaking the old NFL record of 6,793 allowed by the 1981 Baltimore Colts.
Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma, who returned an interception 18 yards for a touchdown on Sunday, said New Orleans can't make any excuses for making NFL history in an undesirable way.
"You get what you deserve," Vilma said. "You don't play good defense, that's what's going to happen. Be a man and suck it up."
After a long season marred by the bounty scandal, New Orleans offensive lineman Zach Strief said the Saints are ready to shift their attention to the offseason. The Saints failed to make the postseason for the first time since 2008 this year.
"There is a lot of time to assess now and figure out why we were in this situation," Strief said. "Ultimately, we've got to take something out of this and make sure it doesn't happen again."
The biggest positive, Strief said, will be getting suspended coach Sean Payton back for next season. Payton and the Saints agreed on a contract extension last week.
With Payton back, Strief said the Saints will have a chance at a fresh start.
"We are certainly excited about not having to answer questions about Coach not being here anymore," Strief said. "We want Coach Payton here because he is a big part of this organization. I'm excited to have him back so we could move on."
The 2012 season was a long and frustrating one for the Saints and their fans, but Moore promised that the good times will once again return to the Mercedes-Benz Superdome next year.
"We appreciate our fans and supporters for being there all year," Moore said. "We love them. I can promise them that we'll bounce back next year. That's our biggest goal."
Saints fail to end year on high note

It's really been a while, I know. I didn't mean to leave you guys for so long. But our days here have a different rhythm now, with nursery rhymes, playdates and little shoes, sticky kisses and bedtime stories and all the magic that a little cheeky monkey has brought to our little family. I haven't wanted to miss a second, and to be honest, cooking for us has taken a backseat. Instead of dreaming up new recipes, I've been dreaming up purple elephants, orange penguins, or just plain dreaming. Lately, though, with the weather inevitably turning frosty and the farmers' markets being denuded of their summertime produce, the kitchen has been calling me, pulling me like a magnet, urging me to fill the house with warmth and lovely smells. I first answered the call with this beef stew and once we mmmm-ed over it, I knew I had to come here and tell you about it.
Usually, I don't like recipes with "old-time" in the title because, well, it seems to promise so much, doesn't it? Like, here is a recipe that your grandmother probably made, that will connect you heart and soul to generations of the past, that won't overwhelm you with fancy ingredients or techniques, that will be simple, and hearty, and most of all, really really good. I'm happy to tell you that this recipe does not disappoint. It's exactly what it looks like on paper, but oh, oh the taste is so much more complex that you would expect by just looking at the ingredient list. Yes, there is the old time quality, and there is the beautiful simplicity, and there are layers of smells and flavors and textures. It's like a warm, comfortable sweater that you put on while sipping a glass of wine by the fireplace on a chilly night. I like that and I will be making this stew again throughout the winter months.
Old-Time Beef Stew
Paula Dean
2 pounds stew beef
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cups water
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 clove garlic, peeled
1 or 2 bay leaves
1 medium onion, sliced
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
Dash ground allspice or ground cloves
1 lb potatoes (my own addition, but really good)
3 large carrots, sliced
3 ribs celery, chopped
2 tablespoons cornstarch
Brown meat in hot oil. Add water, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, bay leaves, onion, salt, sugar, pepper, paprika, and allspice. Cover and simmer 1 1/2 hours. Remove bay leaves and garlic clove. Add carrots, celery and potatoes chopped into chunks. Cover and cook 30 to 40 minutes longer (mine took another hour until the carrots and the potatoes were fully cooked through). To thicken gravy, remove 2 cups hot liquid. Using a separate bowl, combine 1/4 cup water and cornstarch until smooth. Mix with a little hot liquid and return mixture to pot. Stir and cook until bubbly. Continued after the jump...

Fibre optic broadband internet connections Uttoxeter
Fibre to the cabinet broadband internet connections
SEP Telecom Solutions now offers business-quality super-fast fibre to the cabinet (FTTC) broadband internet connections, delivering amazing download speeds of up to 80Mb/s!
You might remember how slow dial-up internet access was. ADSL is much faster. Fibre optic broadband internet connections deliver an even bigger increase in speed over ADSL than ADSL gave over dial-up.
ADSL delivered download speeds of up to 20Mb/s depending on the distance from the telephone exchange. With FTTC, it is the distance from the cabinet that is relevant rather than the distance from the exchange. As cabinets are much closer than the exchange, you are much more likely to get closer to the maximum speed than you were with ADSL.
Fibre optic broadband internet connections are currently being installed all over the UK and are already available in many areas.
Why choose SEP Business Services?
- Free installation available
- Download speeds of up to 80Mb/s
- UK-based customer support provided by knowledgeable helpful people
Don't need fibre?
Can't get or don't need fibre? We also offer fantastic business quality ADSL internet connections, also with UK-based knowledgeable helpful support.
Single bill for landlines, broadband internet connection, and mobile phones
Move your landlines, broadband internet connection and mobile phones to us and get everything on one bill.
No more dealing with several companies for your different services. We offer mobile phones, landlines and broadband internet connections from one supplier with everything on the same bill.
All your support in one place
Business landlines, mobile phones and broadband internet connections from one supplier, meaning you only have one supplier to call if you need help with any of them.

she almost looks like one of those renaissance madonas;
Love that photo! Amazing look.
j'aime trop !!! cela me rappelle trop des photos de moi dans les 70′ :o)) quel style, quelle libertĂ©… et c'Ă©tait complètement naturel, inconscient, yes !
tu as raison
This is an incredible photo.
How lovely :)
Wow, great one! really like vintage pictures x
She has this look that I could die on girl dancing on " Girls who wanna have fun " :0
Stunning photo. She looks amazing.
Wow, this actually looks very current!
I want that lace top! Great image.
In the Know
A l'exception du grain de la photo, elle pourrait être actuelle. Intéressant.
I love this photo and everything in it. The sofa is great, her red shorts are amazing and the lace jacket is perfect. Just lovely.
This shot seems to have been taken not more ten years ago
The sheer cardigan is gorgeous!
Wow what a beautiful portrait. I really like that jacket.
beautiful photo!
I remember wearing capezzio ballet shoes like that…lovely!
I love this. Beautiful photo. Well-styled, too, I might add.
She is really a beautiful woman. Reminds me of Lana Del Rey with her long hair. I wouldn't think this is such an old photo.
The posture and the style tell that it is a teenage girl. The color of the cardigan and the stockings match and the hole outfit shows a good talent for composition. Looking at that picture I had to think about my mom.
She was 17 when world war II ended and she had to flee from her home county which was invaded by the Red Army and later became a part of Poland. She told me that these times where very hard and everybody had to struggle to survive.
I think, Lana del Rey plays with the style of past fashion eras. Maybe that is why the photo reminds you of her. When I hear Lana's songs I always have to think about the TV-series Mad Men, especially the character of Betty Draper.
Amazing photo! You mother was a real beauty! And her girlfriend had a really good taste! :)
your mum, she looks amazing. :)
Love it!
She's beautiful and the styling is very fashion forward. Well done!
The Styleseer
Wow! I actually thought this photo was Instagramed. She looks beautiful and so ahead of her time!! Congrats!!
Greetings from Santiago, Chile.
@cristianpavezd on Twitter.
oh gosh, your mother is gorgeous! I love everything about this photo <3
La dame au dessus n'approuve pas :)
You have a beautiful mother. It took me a minute to realize that she and I are the same age, but I was never that well dressed. Thank you for sharing this photo. It truly makes my day!
That is a great photo, and an awesome outfit!
omg!!! i LOVE vintage photos and this one is FAB!
xoxo from rome
What grand repose.
International Blog and Shop
I love your pics there always so good,this pic of your mother could be a pic taken now
One of my favorite vintage photos I've seen on your site, Scott. This is just amazing. The clashing periods and colors are superb. The mood is fantastic.
Your mum looks like she just came out from a magazine shoot! Love the vintage look, she looks so relaxed! xx
What a succint image that captures the era. Gorgeous!!
So lovely! I love the shoes and socks!
Royal poise and an ensemble that has withstood time.
There's something special about this picture. Love look on her face and the colours.
That is SO cool! Your mom is a total fox.
I love vintage photographs!
Have a beautiful Saturday!
Savannah Marie
This photo looks like it was done today. Your mom looks beautiful in this picture :)
Show Your Outfit!
Very nice… a sort of cross-genre, inter-generational portraiture with good styling and exquisite dĂ©cor…the early 70′s Connectitcut setting brings to mind the novel/film THE ICE STORM.
I think the whole composition is so artistic and yet so chic!
I love this! I was around that age (15) in '72 so I'm feeling quite nostalgic. This image is timeless in that it could have been taken from the 60′s thru now. But her expression is so of the tumultuous late 60′s and early 70′s. A beautiful and wistful flower girl, though more worrisome.
Beautiful image. I love the look on her face.
so stylish outfit, but even more the model an the photo in genereal! love!
wow what a beautiful woman. i love this picture :)
If I had this as a family photo, I'd be tempted to have a giant art print made of it, maybe even on canvas. It's just beautiful… the composition, the red shorts, her ruffled hair, all the textures.
Gorgeous photo!
i live in greens farms !
Stunning photo, girl and that lace overlay is to. die. for!
Beautiful picture! She looks gorgeous!
Amazing! She looks so much like my daughter!
I really love this photo. The three colour rule still holds, the black and beige, and the red. She is very beautiful as well, which doesn't hurt.
The sheer jacket, the pop of red, and the modern attitude juxtaposed with the old-fashioned oil painting in the background and the formal bench made this a fantastic shot.
this is a really fantastic photograph.
i love this woman's style. look at those shorts!
I love this! She looks exactly like Gillian Zinser from the new 90210 series! Gorgeous
What a winsome gaze. Absolutely stunning. I would love to see a photo of this woman today in the same spot. There's a lovely spirit there.
wow she looks like gillian zinser
Stunning picture! Love the jacket!
Wow, I wouldn't have guessed that this is a vintage picture from the 1970s. This outfit and girl would totally rock today. Amazing.
She is absolutely gorgeous… The look ! This photo is just beautiful !
Wow I am amazed. this is almost a painting. from composition to color tones, it has a real dreamy feeling over it. Although it could be pulled out of a modern, current fashion editorial now… Beautifull, really.
x L.
i love the contrast with the dark portrait. it looks very current. how wonderful that you have these photos!
you r very young…70′s vintage….funny…hope u can raid her closet!!!
This is beautiful… so stunning
She's beautiful, she makes me think about Gillian Zinser
your mom's beautiful :)
Bellissima la foto, l'ambienazione, il divano ecc. Per quanto riguarda l'abbigliamento non si può non apprezzare il copri spalle, veramente bello ed attuale!
How strange, this photo doesn't seem old to me!! Maybe it is her look but if you didn't say is from the 70′s I would think it is a current picture. Really nice pic.
this photo is amazing….so timeless, like it could have been taken this week. your mother is beautiful and her look is so classic. i love her socks, the lace cardigan, her hair….lovely.
I love every picture of your mother you've posted. She has such great photographic presence.
your mother is so beautiful!
I love her hair and the way she looks to the camera…
nice outfit too!
She doesn't really look 17 in this pic, more like 25.
literally INCREDIBLE. so inspirational.
Wow! That is just wonderful. She is gorgeous. I love the high waisted red shorts, the beautiful sheer jacket, and those socks and shoes. Its simply perfect. Timeless elegance. And I love the way she has her foot pointed in that ballet way. She looks 17 years old to me.
Youth is wasted on the young……….before you know its come & gone…….
To be there ……………..again (sigh)
i love her entire outfit. so chic from 40 years ago, but clearly this kind of dressing up still clearly influences the streets today.
Love the cream lace over the black top–that's a truly beautiful combination. The photo & subject are lovely, too! But mostly this makes me wish I still had some of my cool '70s knee socks. (They were the only thing we could use to add some swag to our Catholic school uniforms… so we worked it.)
I love your pics, they are always so expressive and really exciting!
Love it so amazing :)
So inspiring!!
Love everything in the picture!!
nothing is more cool than a vintage photo !!:)
She's adorable.
However, it's a little disturbing when one is the same age as the person in the "vintage" photo…
So great to have such a picture of your mother.. Very vintage, like it !
Love this picture. It looks like it could have been taken recently, love the styling :)
OMG! This shot reminds me of my childhood. Almost every photograph (hundreds) taken of me and my sister we were perched on a bench under the rather stern portrait of our ancestor, Catherine Kimball (1745-1831). It is great to know other families had that same tradition. Thanks for the memories, Scott.
Hey some one in Greenwich has style, who would have thought…
I agree the photo could be a modern one…
40 years later that look feels amazingly modern from head to toe.
Love it, my era, but just to clarify, is this someone named Zoe's mom, or yours, Scott?
I like how mostly 95% of people comment on how your mother look like instead of just telling you that she is very pretty. No need to comment about the look the attitude, the clothes… she is just gorgeous.
very pretty
I love the mix of the colours!
Amazing look!!! Love it.
Your mother is beautiful.
Would love to see how she looks now!
She looks like she could be in "today's" magazines.
The red shorts/pants are very "in" now!
Thanks for sharing.
the photo itself looks vintage, so does the setting.
but the model..her hair, her clothes look so current!
Scott your mother is beautiful!!!!!
I love this Photo! Very cool her mater when was young!
Looove this picture, it looks so current !
I thought it was Ivanka Trump
your mother needs a black dick, sorry, two black dicks!
she's gorgeous!
Gorgeous! Are you certain this isn't a page from this month's Anthropologie catalog? (-:
it's so current.
A classic photo. It begs for a contemporary companion shot to see who she grew up to be.
LOVE seeing old pictures of our parents from the 70s. Your mom looks awesome! She's got a natural presence to her!
Check out our photography at-
Such a nice photo.. 1972 was a great year!… Brandy your a fine girl!
I absolutely love this vintage photo, especially how her red shorts stand out.
The pieces are phenomenal, I now have a restored love for white knee highs and mary-janes. Exquisite styling and your mother completes the shot.
She looks SO MUCH like the girl in 90210, Gillian Zinser!
Hi Scott,
It would be great to see photos of the sons/daughters, grandsons/granddaughters that send these in, to see what their style is like and how it differs to those in the photos. It would be really interesting to see what they get from their parents/grandparents!
Or perhaps to see current photos of these peopl!
Just an idea!
such a cool shot. it somehow looks French to me.
You look like her!
I love this photo.
When I first saw this I thought it was contemporary…but I live in Portland where vintage clothing is the mainstay of fashion.
A sweet photo!
the composition is great. dig it. coulda been shot yesterday with film for all i know!
What style! This explains everything!
Jeez, she is beautiful. I love what she's wearing too, totally original and cool.
amazing how I thought this was a recent photograph, shows how the vintage look has transpired through fashion and across years, it never grows old
Your mum looks stunning! She is a beautiful woman! Love the picture!
She looks like Nina Garcia!
somehow her face reminds me Garance´s face
Beautiful. All your vintage photos are stunning!
She's gorgeous she looks like the actress from 90210 Gillian
I think she looks exactly like Gillian Zinser, the actress playing Ivy on 90210:
lovin it !
Awesome picture! she is looking hot.
This could be the cover to teen vogue.
looks like time past and fashion never changed
beautiful women

Magnus Magnetic Stand for iPad gallery
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Accessories, Apple, Design, Features, Handhelds
We just got our hands on the Ten One Design Magnus, a magnetic stand for the Apple iPad. The stand features a striking minimalist design that works with all three generations of iPad that have been released to date. It's made of a nice, hand-finished brushed aluminum look that matches the rear metallic casing on the iPad itself. They sell out pretty regularly, but you can find them on Amazon for $47. We'll have a full review up later today, but for now, enjoy these images showing off the Magnus.

Woodruff and Gergen agree: Bush may not have a plan for Iraq, but that's Kerry's problem
On September 15, CNN host Judy Woodruff [1] and pundit David Gergen [2] both suggested that, while President George W. Bush appears to lack a clear plan for Iraq, the Iraq situation is more of a problem for Senator John Kerry than it is for Bush.
Gergen is a U.S. News & World Report editor-at-large and a former adviser to Presidents Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, and Bill Clinton.
Woodruff and Gergen -- appearing on separate CNN programs -- stipulated that Bush has no clear plan for Iraq, but then both made a curious leap of logic. Apparently ignoring Bush's responsibility for the U.S. war in Iraq -- and his attendant responsibility for creating a climate in which terrorism can thrive, where civil war is a possibility, and where conditions for Iraqis and coalition troops alike are generally disastrous -- they chose to emphasize instead what they consider Kerry's "weakness" on Iraq.
On CNN's Judy Woodruff's Inside Politics, Woodruff reported that only 17 percent of persuadable voters think Bush has a "clear plan" for Iraq. She then added, "And the numbers are no better for John Kerry. But that's more of a worry for Kerry, isn't it?"
Appearing as a guest on CNN's Lou Dobbs Tonight [3], Gergen extensively criticized Kerry's position on Iraq, saying: "[H]is rhetoric and his votes on Iraq have struck many, many voters as being incoherent, and they don't understand what he thinks about Iraq or what he thinks ought to happen in the future, and I think the absence of a framework for a -- the war on terrorism and what to do about Iraq is coming back to plague this campaign. ... He needs a strategy for the war on terrorism, and it has to include Iraq."
When Dobbs asked if Gergen had a "clear understanding of the Bush administration's strategy on Iraq," Gergen admitted: "No. And you've got a good point there." But Gergen then claimed that Bush is "clearer about his overall strategy" and is "at least clear about what he wants to create at least as a stable Iraq and, hopefully, a Democratic Iraq." As though Kerry doesn't want a "stable Iraq" -- and as though Bush's hope counts as an "overall strategy."

Sue Baughman had her usual fabulous Christmas party at her home on River Road.
No one decorates as well as Sue. She is so inventive and creative and each party is different from the last one. Her food is always yummy and the decorations are truly works of art.
This year she found these amazing teensy-tiny strings of white lights that operate off a battery. This means much more versatility in decorations, such as a curio table filled with her collection of jeweled Christmas tree pins with the tiny lights woven among them and setting off sparkling colored glints of light.
A large vase of branches with choice ornaments and the tiny lights set off a normally dark corner of the library.
Then you should see the mantel. For years Sue has collected Czechoslovakian one-dimensional Christmas trees of various heights. They too have the tiny lights amongst them, and the colored, faceted stones reflect the lights and are magical.
On the dining room table she had an assortment of clear crystal candlesticks, amusing tubby angels and the lights. (All of which came from Etcetra on Brownsboro Road).
And I haven't even begun to talk about the tree!
The crowd was fun: Martha Miller, Fran Jasper, Libby Parkinson, Lindy Street, Margaret Woodside, Janet Ames and Janet Falk, Jeanne Ferguson, Deedee McCloud, Diana Schmied, Laura Dausman, Corky Sachs, Susie Greenberg, Winona Shiprek, Nancy Laird and a host of other fun souls.
The only male invited was Joey Seay, and only because he brought his mother Martha Snowden Mahan, who was visiting from Florida. None of us had met her before and all fell in love with her. Now we know where Joey gets his charm. Martha is 94 and you would never know it! She charmed everyone and we don't want her to go back to Florida! After all, her roots are here. She was reared on River Road.
As a parting gift, Sue had CDs of music she likes put together and each guest was given one. Sue is always thoughtful and everyone adores her – Well, except for one mean spirited old lady!
The Maestro Was With Us
Louisville Orchestra Music Director Jorge Mester was in town last week to conduct two fabulous concerts. One was the first Coffee Concert of the year and the other was another of the Classics Series. Both were performed at the Brown Theatre. The featured work for both performances was Benjamin Britten's Serenade for Tenor and Horn. The Orchestra's spectacular principal French horn player, Jon Gustely, wowed the crowd along with tenor Michael Colvin.
A special treat was to have Mester's long time girlfriend, Claudia Ford, in town with him. They have an interesting relationship that really works. His main home is in Los Angeles and she is a bank executive in New York. They have been together for sixteen years, so there must be something right about it. Like Jorge, she charms everyone she meets.

Julio Cesar made key saves as Queens Park Rangers drew 0-0 with Tottenham
QPR produced a disciplined performance to hold Harry Redknapp's former club Tottenham to a 0-0 draw at Loftus Road.
Last Updated: 13/08/13 11:58am
In a game which only sporadically sprung into life, QPR goalkeeper Julio Cesar made smart stops in the early stages of each half to ensure Redknapp's new club moved off the foot of the table for a few hours until Reading's victory over West Brom.
Tottenham could have been in front after just five minutes, but were denied by a tremendous double save from Cesar.
The Brazilian firstly tipped Jermain Defoe's thumping drive onto the post before recovering quickly to get down low to keep out Emmanuel Adebayor's shot from the rebound when the Togo striker should have scored.
QPR responded through Shaun Wright-Phillips, who saw his shot deflected past the upright by Michael Dawson after the winger had been played in by a superb pass from Adel Taarabt.
But chances were scarce for the rest of the opening 45 minutes as Spurs were forced to bring on Scott Parker for the injured Sandro before the half closed with Wright-Phillips shooting wide after he had skipped past Kyle Walker and Dawson.
Spurs started the second half strongly as Gareth Bale's swerving free-kick was parried by Cesar, who could then only watch as Walker's arcing free-kick dipped just over the crossbar.
The visitors continued to carry the main attacking threat and Defoe found a yard of space in the box on 53 minutes only for the England international's shot to clatter off Cesar.
Hugo Lloris had been a virtual spectator in the second half, but the Spurs keeper was out smartly with 13 minutes to go to clear the danger after Taarabt had again tried to slip Wright-Phillips in behind the defence.
Taarabt and Wright-Phillips linked up to good effect again with five minutes to go, only for the former Chelsea winger to stumble in the penalty area as he prepared to shoot.
Spurs tried to exert pressure in the final few minutes, but their passing lacked incision as QPR comfortably held out for a deserved point.

Senate delivers on promise to pass abortion bill
AUSTIN — Senate Republicans Friday pushed through strict new abortions laws, claiming victory in a contentious battle at the Legislature and making Texas one of the toughest states in which to have the procedure.
The Senate voted 19-11 to pass the bill and make good on a vow from the state's top two leaders to pass the bill after it was derailed by a filibuster and raucous protests in the gallery last month.
The bill now goes to Gov. Rick Perry for his signature. He has said he intends to sign the bill.
The final showdown kicked off Friday.
Much of the suspense and drama that filled the Capitol the evening that the bill failed to pass on the last month has been zapped. There's no hype about a marathon filibuster and no threat the clock will run out on Republicans this time.
Senators debated for hours, as Democrats offered a flurry of amendments. Each amendment was slapped down by the Republican majority — the same way tweaks offered by Democrats were rejected in the House and in a Senate panel earlier this week.
Inside the Senate chamber, debate started off hot.
State Sen. John Whitmire, D-Houston, said it looks like the bill's author state Sen. Glenn Hegar, is playing politics by combining a proposal to enact a 20-week ban with three other measures to create one mega piece of abortion-restriction legislation.
He also hit Hegar on Republicans shooting down every amendment Democrats have proposed so far, strongly advocating for an amendment that state Sen. Carlos Uresti unsuccessfully offered in committee to exempt victims of rape and incest from the 20-week ban.
"Is it your position as the sponsor that this is a perfect piece of legislation?" Whitmire asked.
"You have never heard me say ... that any piece of legislation in the form it sits here is the best possible under every scenario. Nor have I ever said I would take no amendment whatsoever," Hegar responded.
Outside the chamber, opponents of the bill roared with chants.
Hundreds in blue and orange shirts also filled the gallery.
More than 25 Texas Department of Public Safety Troopers kept watch, with some officers positioned to face the crowd directly in front of the galley rails. There also were reports of DPS troopers confiscating a swath of items before folks entered the gallery, including tampons, food or anything that could be chucked onto the Senate floor.
Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst made clear from the start that no disruptions will be tolerated, and the entire gallery could be cleared if folks get rowdy. That includes applause, signs, demonstrations or outbursts of any kind.
"I hope that actions of a few wouldn't remove your ability to be in this gallery and watch this process," he said.
Protesters in the gallery remained defiant.
"There are a lot of angry women, and we're not afraid of going to jail," said Lisa Fithian, a 52-year-old political activist from Austin who opposes the bill. "If that's what it takes, that's what it takes."
Hallie Boas, who was one of five activists arrested Tuesday for an outburst in the House, said she will "scream and yell" from the gallery if it looks like Senate Republicans are trying to give Democrats the shaft.
"If they choose to arrest me, that's their prerogative," she said. "It's worth it."

Festool brings a new level of precision to jigsaws. Smooth curves, splinter-free
cuts, and less sanding are all possible with a Trion.
Wandering cuts are virtually eliminated with the patented three-way saw blade guide
and adjustable carbide guidance jaws that keep the cut perpendicular to the base
of the jigsaw. Effortless cuts can be achieved with a high-performance, 720 watt
motor, controlled by MMC electronics for consistent cuts through most materials.
Trion jigsaws come in two designs; the low profile barrel grip Trion PS 300, and
the shorter D-handle Trion PSB 300. Both saws have the same high performance specifications,
and both accept Festool precision jigsaw blades.
With any jigsaw, cutting results are directly related to how comfortable the tool
fits into the user's hand. Because your results are important to us, our engineers
designed two versions of the same tool.
Most jigsaws have a hard time staying on course. Tough workpieces and curves can
easily cause the blade to deflect. The result is time-consuming finishing work like
sanding or even recutting.
The Festool Trion solves the problem with adjustable carbide tipped jaws that provide
three-way blade guidance, ensuring that the blade is perfectly straight throughout
the cut. A splinterguard protects against chipping, leaving you with a clean, precise
cut through the entire depth of the workpiece, with little or no finishing.
Below, you will find a comprehensive list of specifications for each of the jigsaw
models in the Festool line.

Cucumber Dill Tea SandwichesIt sure is hot isn't it? And it's not only hot in The South, it's pretty much hot everywhere here lately it seems. Well, these little tea sandwiches are cool as a cucumber, literally!
Commonly found at weddings, bridal showers and parties of all kinds in The South, they are a delightful and cool lunch and a great way to use some of those summer cucumbers. Most often served on thin, white bread, crusts removed, and sliced into quarters, and honestly, a bit addictive.
In Kentucky, you'll often find a version of these cucumber sandwiches referred to as Benedictine Sandwiches, apparently named so after a caterer many years back and traditional fare at Kentucky Derby parties all across the South. Most often they are made with a few drops of green food coloring to give them a vibrant green shade.
Some people like to do a separate cream cheese spread and then layer ultra thinly sliced cucumbers on top - you'll find that variation in the recipe below. Others chop the cucumber. I prefer the cucumber grated and mixed in.
If you are making these up for a party, you can make them ahead, leaving the crusts intact, stack them standing and wrap them with foil, then slide them back into the sandwich bread bag to freeze until needed. Thaw first, then trim and cut each sandwich into fourths before serving. A triple decker, made with three slices of bread per sandwich also makes a pretty presentation for a party also.
The butter is optional, but does help to provide a moisture barrier keeping the sandwiches from getting soggy, especially when making them ahead. You can eliminate that if you like, and you can also substitute non-fat cream cheese or neufchatel cheese if you wish to use it, but lower the fat. Transform this into a cucumber dip for vegetables, chips and crackers, by using the juice from the cucumber and some extra mayonnaise.
Here's how to make them.
Recipe: Cucumber Dill Tea Sandwiches©From the Kitchen of Deep South Dish
Prep time: 30 min | Yield: 12 to 48 sandwiches, depending on how you cut them
- 1 loaf of square topped, thin white bread
- Unsalted butter, softened at room temperature, optional
- 1 large or 2 medium cucumbers, peeled, seeded, grated, squeezed and patted dry
- 1 (8 ounce) cream cheese, softened at room temperature
- 1 tablespoon grated Vidalia onion
- 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise
- Kosher salt and white pepper, to taste
- 1/2 tablespoon of chopped fresh dill, plus more for garnish
Put a very thin layer of butter on each slice of bread. After grating the cucumber, place it into several layers of paper towels and squeeze out the excess liquid; repeat if needed. Mix the cucumber with all of the remaining ingredients well and spread between two slices of bread. Cut off crusts and cut into fourths or use a cookie or biscuit cutter to cut into rounds, reserving crusts for bread crumbs.
Sandwiches can also be made ahead and frozen whole. Cut the crusts off and slice into fourths after thawing.
Cook's Notes: Dress sandwiches with watercress if desired. Increase the mayonnaise and include the juices of the cucumber to transform this into a dip. Serve with an assortment of crudities, such as carrots, assorted sweet bell peppers, blanched broccoli and asparagus spears.
Variation: If you are serving a small amount of these for a ladies tea or brunch, a very pretty and classic southern presentation is to cut the bread into rounds as pictured above, but instead of adding the cucumber to the spread, slice them about 1/4-inch thick, either peeled or unpeeled.
If you use a fork to scrape along the rind or a peeler to peel away only sections of the cucumber it makes a very pretty edge for presentation. Mix up the cream cheese mixture and pipe a dab onto the bread, place a cucumber round on top, and pipe another dab of the cream cheese mixture on top. Garnish with tiny sprigs of dill. Gorgeous!

I have been making art in one form or another since I was very young, and it has remained a lifelong fascination for me. Although I attended an art school in California, I consider myself to be mostly self-taught. This is because I was in school back in the late 1960's and early 1970's, and in the 50-odd years since then, the various processes involved in creating and reproducing art have been profoundly changed by the inception of digital technologies. Most of the things we take for granted now, such as high-resolution digital cameras, professional inkjet printers, and powerful imaging technologies were only science fiction dreams back then. I maintain a healthy sense of curiosity about new technologies and am patient enough to research...
