Maryland cornerback recruit Travis Hawkins won't arrive in College Park this month as originally planned.
The Quince Orchard standout intended to graduate high school early and enroll at Maryland this semester. But according to The Washington Post, Hawkins is shy of a qualifying SAT score. He's still committed to the Terps, but he may visit other schools.
"He's really close, but at this point he can't take it again before you have to enroll," [Quince Orchard coach Dave] Mencarini said. "He is still committed to Maryland, that's what he has always said. He has said in the past to Ralph [Friedgen], 'If I don't graduate early, I still might take some other visits.'"
• Hoboken, N.J., defensive lineman Bernardo Nunez told Scout.com this week that Maryland is the leader in his recruitment.
"Maryland is number one right now," Nunez says. "I've been there a lot and I feet really comfortable with all the coaches and players already. There's probably about an 80-90 percent chance I'll go there."
The Terps still lead solidly over Pittsburgh and Michigan State, who he is visiting on Jan. 9 and 17 respectively.
"If I get that feeling at Pittsburgh or Michigan State it could change things," he said. "I want to compare them to Maryland and see how the other schools are. I need to see how they stack up and how I feel when I'm there."
• The Hudson (N.J.) Reporter's Jim Hague offers a prediction on Nunez and teammate Isaac Holmes that should please Terps fans.
Hoboken grid standouts Isaac Holmes and Bernardo Nunez will both head to the University of Maryland in a package deal.
• Dunbar running back Tavon Austin committed to West Virginia this week, picking the Mountaineers over Maryland, Michigan and North Carolina.
"I went to West Virginia, and I felt like I was part of the family. ... Besides, I thought I would play earlier at West Virginia. I did my homework, and West Virginia leads the Big East in Rhodes scholars. They graduate a lot of their players."
He also watched the Meineke Car Care Bowl between his top two choices, West Virginia and North Carolina. The Mountaineers won, 31-30.
"I did watch the game, but I pretty much had my mind made up by then. I wanted to see the different styles between the Big East and the ACC. I was glad that West Virginia came out on top," he said.
• Maryland and Miami are both in the running for offensive linemen Pete White (St. John's D.C.) and Malcolm Bunche (Newark, Del.). According to the Miami Herald, the Hurricanes may hold an edge with Bunche.
UM has a good chance to land Plantation American Heritage tackle Jared Wheeler (leans toward Miami over Vanderbilt) and Newark, N.J. (sic)-based Malcolm Bunche. UM also is in contention for Washington-based Peter White (UM, Maryland and Tennessee are finalists), Cleveland-based Marcus Hall and Hargrave's Bobby Massie (the No. 1 prep school player).
• Good Counsel linebacker Jelani Jenkins, who was selected to MaxPreps.com's All-American team this week, has scheduled an official visit for next weekend.
Good Counsel All-Met linebacker Jelani Jenkins, who played in the UnderArmour All-America game on Sunday night, plans to take his next official visit to Penn State on the weekend of Jan. 16-18. He visited Florida last month and does not have any other official visits scheduled, according to his father, Maurice.
Basketball recruiting
• Maryland power forward commitment Jordan Williams had a monster week for Torrington (Conn.) High School, starting with Saturday's 65-62 win over Wilby in which he had 43 points, 21 rebounds and eight blocks. Williams followed that performance by leading the Raiders to an 81-68 win over Naugatuck on Tuesday.
Six-foot-10 All-State center Jordan Williams (30 points, 21 rebounds, 6 blocks), who averages well over 30 points a game while dominating the middle on both ends of the court, had two fouls in the first quarter and a third by the half. He started the third period, but picked up a fourth foul with 4:45 left in the third, then sat on the bench until there was just 6:33 left in the game, fourth quarter.
• Terps power forward signee James Padgett, who's battling an ankle injury, reached double figures in Brooklyn (N.Y.) Lincoln's 71-61 loss to Boys & Girls High earlier this week.
[Lincoln's Lance] Stephenson, the nationally known college prospect, got his points – 37 of them and the Railsplitters' first 12 – but the Kangaroos shut down everyone else. Only senior forward James Padgett finished with Stephenson in double figures, scoring 12.
• Maryland junior power forward target Tobias Harris writes about his ankle injury in a diary for Syracuse.com.
Unfortunately, I have only played 3 of the 8 games this season. In practice after our win versus Holy Trinity, I came down and rolled my ankle really badly (I hope it's not "the curse of Ryan's blog").
The next morning i got MRI results stating that the ligaments in my ankle were torn. It was devestating news for me. But everything happens for a reason and what doesnt kill you makes you stronger. The doctor said I'll probably miss six to eight weeks.
• Terps junior shooting guard prospect Taran Buie scored 23 in a losing effort last Saturday and 17 in Bishop Maginn's 77-38 win over Amsterdam (N.Y.) on Tuesday.
• Maryland junior power forward target Will Regan led the Nichols (N.Y.) School to a 76-55 win over North Catholic on Tuesday.
Will Regan scored 16 for Nichols (10-1, 2-0), while Connor Vandegriff added 14 points.
• Maryland women's point guard signee Dara Taylor led Caravel (Del.) Academy in scoring Tuesday in a 51-40 loss to No. 1-ranked St. Mark's.
Taylor scored a game-high 21 points, but only two came in the fourth quarter as the Spartans used clutch free-throw shooting to pull away from the Buccaneers.
• Terps women's center recruit Essence Townsend turned in a dominant defensive performance in Paterson (N.J.) Catholic's 52-33 win over Teaneck on Sunday.
Essence Townsend, a 6-6 center, scored two points and added 12 rebounds and 10 blocks and sophomore guard Starr Breedlove helped with eight points, seven assists and four steals.
• UM women's power forward signee Tianna Hawkins was instrumental in Riverdale Baptist's IAABO holiday tournament championship last month, according to The Washington Post.
Top-ranked Riverdale Baptist and No. 12 Wise, along with Northwestern, Largo, C.H. Flowers and DuVal, took part in the three-day event at Flowers. Riverdale (10-2 through Monday) won the tournament, capturing the final by a decisive 24 points over No. 4 Forest Park of Prince William County. Sisters Tierra and Tianna Hawkins each averaged 14 points per game. Tierra, a 6-1 junior, also pulled down 12 rebounds in the finals, and Tianna, a 6-3 senior headed to Maryland, grabbed 16.
On Monday, Forest Park and Riverdale played again (a previously scheduled contest), and the host Crusaders again prevailed, 54-41, behind a powerhouse, 19-point, 16-rebound effort from Tianna Hawkins.

The River Adda that flows into the lake Como runs through the valley.
Valtellina is located in the middle of the Alps, not far from Milan and the Swiss border, in Lombardy. From south it is reachable coasting the Lake Como, travelling over the National road n.36, from north the approach routes are the mountain passes, most of which are open during the whole year.
The valley develops from east to west and has a longitudinal aspect which is the most extended one in the whole Alpine arc. It is totally crossed by the National road number 38, known as "Statale dello Stelvio".
The land is prevalently mountainous, with peaks reaching 4000 meters which frame the bottom of the valley.
The landscapes characterizing the province of Sondrio are varying and charming in every season of the year. You start with Valchiavenna, which is situated in the furthermost western part of Valtellina and is particularly popular thanks to the "crotti" and the beauty of its main town, Chiavenna; then you pass through the Bassa Valle surrounding Morbegno, the town from which the popular Bitto cheese originates. The terraced viticulture and the renowned cellars are characteristic of the area of Sondrio and Valmalenco, as far as Tirano and Teglio – this last one, the birthplace of pizzocheri. The journey discovering Valtellina ends in Alta Valle, with the thermal baths in Bormio and the summer skiing at Stelvio Pass.
Valtellina is a great green park in the heart of the Alps.
Many are the protected areas and the natural oasis in this area. The most popular ones are undoubtedly the Stelvio National Park and the Orobie Valtellinesi Park, but you don't need to go too far from the main roads to discover unique and extraordinary landscapes.
The wide natural scenery of the valley allow you to satisfy the desire of pure air and of walks in an extremely beautiful environment that had always inspired a lot of artists and writers.
The first step of your holiday in Valtellina might be through the knowledge its valleys and peaks.
For the nature lovers, there is a lot to choose from the numerous parks and reserves of the valley.
Valchiavenna, for example, proposes many itineraries immersed in the luxuriant nature of the Alps, as well as other itineraries in order to discover its rich history.
In Bassa Valtellina two are the main protected areas: the Park of the Orobie Valtellinesi and the Natural Oasis of Pian di Spagna.
The natural parks in Sondrio and Valmalenco are extraordinary. You can admire landscapes, watch animals and characteristic flowers in their natural habitat.
Media Valtellina offers the tourists its most stunning environmental beauties. A patrimony which is entirely to discover.
Alta Valtellina is synonymous with nature, uncontaminated environments and oasis of peace where it is still possible to immerse in the life of the Earth and to feel Her hearth beating.
In this land even flora and fauna assume different characteristics and colors according to the height above sea level in which they are.
They stretch from the spectacular vineyard terraced systems spread in the valley floor to go uphill through chestnut woods, maples, oaks and lindens, to reach finally an altitude of about 2000 meters, where the vegetation is characterized mainly by bushes – rhododendron, juniper and blueberry.
The rocks and the glaciers allow the tourist to become acquainted with the ancient history of this land. The mineralogical museums spread in the valley store a wide and detailed variety of the typical rocks of this area. Even the glaciers offer a really exciting example of the signs left in the past time in Valtellina.
And then there is water, with lakes and rivers. In Valtellina the presence of this element is so important that it is possible to count hundreds of streams and a moltitude of alpine lakes. These are charming places and represent the ideal destination for anyone who loves walking and sunbathing by the side of a mirror made of crystalline water.
A precious patrimony to be discovered also in Valtellina's thermal spa centers.
Snow in Valtellina
Valtellina's skiing district develops on over 450 kilometers of slopes, provided with about 140 ski lifts and equipped with modern structures with a system of planned snowfalls and ski-schools. A lot of skiing resorts offer all the snowboarders numerous reserved areas – the snowparks – including various structures to do acrobatics on the snow. In addition you can also find endless cross-country skiing trails, alpinistic skiing itineraries and many other trails you can discover on "ciaspole". The winter furthermore offers the opportunity try out the numerous skate rinks -many of which are indoor- and the routes for dog-sledging, the sleigh hauled by dogs. Livigno, Bormio, Santa Caterina, Valdidentro, Madesimo, Aprica, Chiesa in Valmalenco, Valgerola and Teglio are the most famous ski areas in Valtellina.

You can discover the charm of the mountain in any period of the year in Valtellina. During summer then you can do summer skiing at Stelvio Pass, going on with an excursion which will allow you to plunge into the green or with a ride on your mountain bike which will make you discover countless valleys. While in winter there is no better suggestion than such a wide range of skiing resorts surrounded by extraordinary natural settings which offer the opportunity to play all winter sports.
That is your holiday in Valtellina, in search of extraordinary experiences.

Lombardia in Cucina: The Flavours of Lombardy
Milan-style risotto, pizzoccheri Valtellinesi, and pumpkin tortelli to start; casoeula, Milan-style cutlets, frogs stewed in tomato to follow, and to send, a slice of sbrisolona cake or panettone.
Lombardy surprises with the richness of its culinary traditions and natural ingredients, which modernity has barely affected.
"Milano in Cucina" captures this kaleidoscope of flavours, with contributions from some of the most celebrated chefs on the culinary scene, who pay homage to their territory, and whose skill is able to present a modern vision in keeping with the region's progressive spirit.
The Italian Academy of Cuisine
La Cucina: The Regional Cooking of Italy
Fifty years ago, a group of Italian scholars gathered to discuss a problem: how to preserve traditional Italian cooking. They formed the Italian Academy of Cuisine to document classic recipes from every region. The academy's more than seven thousand associates spread out to villages everywhere, interviewing grandmothers and farmers at their stoves, transcribing their recipes—many of which had never been documented before. This is the culmination of that research, an astounding feat—2,000 recipes that represent the patrimony of Italian country cooking. Each recipe is labeled with its region of origin, and it's not just the ingredients but also the techniques that change with the geography. Sprinkled throughout are historical recipes that provide fascinating views into the folk culture of the past. There are no fancy flourishes here, and no shortcuts; this is true salt-of-the-earth cooking. The book is an excellent everyday source for easily achievable recipes, with such simple dishes as White Bean and Escarole Soup, Polenta with Tomato Sauce, and Chicken with Lemon and Capers. For ease of use there are four different indexes. La Cucina is an essential reference for every cook's library.
Milano in Cucina: The Flavours of Milan
The famous Risotto Alla Milanese gets its golden hue from the precious spice saffron. Legend has it that the dish came about when a Milanese painter decided to gild the risotto served at his wedding banquet with a harmless gold-colored dye. In Milan, they traditionally serve Risotto Alla Milanese with ossobuco (braised veal shank).
Traditionally made with raisins and candied citron, or with a creamy cream filling, the light, fluffy brioche-like bread called panettone may be tall or short, covered with chocolate or flavored with various liquors, but it's always a symbol of the Christmas season.
With its hallmark domed shape, panettone graced Christmas tables in Milan since at least the 15th-century. Common knowledge claims its invention is from Milan. It is the most famous Christmas Lombardia food.

Inane Ramblings of a Middle-Aged Publishing Professional
Here, reposted from the Young Professionals page at the High Calling, are excerpts from a conversation I had recently with Sam Van Eman about stewarding influence over the course of your career. I enjoyed the conversation; I thought you might as well. *** SVE: YPs [young professionals] are hot off the education press and want to know that they matter in the workplace. Give us a story from your twenties when your voice shaped something at work. DZ: I remember this time we were brainstorming a new corporate tagline. (I should mention here that IVP is remarkably flat in its hierarchy and wildly collaborative in its strategic planning.) Sally Craft, then leading our publicity team, floated the Wesleyan Quadrilateral—Scripture, tradition, reason, experience—a grid by which we make responsible decisions. We liked the flow of it, but our audience, we thought, is much broader than Methodists. I threw out the language of the Shema, which Jesus identified as the greatest of God's commandments: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and all your strength" (Mark 12:30) "Heart. Soul. Mind. Strength." resonated with everyone, and I developed a reputation as a bit of a wordsmith. Of course, when we announced our new tagline in our next catalog, we screwed up the order of the terms on the cover: "Heart. Mind. Soul. Strength." Sigh. SVE: At IVP, you work with Likewise, an imprint which focuses on making a difference in the world. The name itself comes from Jesus' words to the lawyer after telling the Good Samaritan story: "Go and do likewise." So Likewise has a voice; it has influence. How much of that voice is Dave Zimmerman's? DZ: I'd say that even given the "all-in" collaborative culture of IVP, it's safe to say I've been the primary curator of Likewise's voice. I've served as the editorial liaison for the line (my colleague, Andrew Bronson, is our marketing liaison). Andrew likes to stay a bit behind the scenes; me, I like the attention. So I blogged fairly regularly about a "Likewise ethos," and I wrote regular newsletters trumpeting the line to Likewise authors and readers. We'd also often gather together people who matched our "psychographic" within larger events and conferences, so we could commingle with them and reinforce what we saw as the core values of the line. There's a reverse process in there, of course; the books we've determined along the way to be Likewise books have shaped my worldview and informed my values, even messed with my voice. So I suppose it'd also be appropriate to ask, "Dave has a voice. How much of it is Likewise's?" SVE: Touché. I read a mystic who said the things we build "are outward manifestations of inward realities." You're implying that this goes both ways. Something to ponder. DZ: Thanks for that. I won't be sleeping for a few days. SVE: How much "Dave" would we see in Likewise 10 years from now if you were to stick around? DZ: Likewise has always had a strong countercultural bent—for example, The Unkingdom of God by Mark Van Steenwyk calls for a posture of repentance as the basis for our discipleship, an orientation he arrives at by thinking of Christianity in anarchist terms. Given that, it's ironic that I'm the editor. I live in a single-family house in the suburbs. No one looking at me would think Who let that anarchist hippie in the building? Deliver Us from Me-Ville is available as an ebook for 99 cents for a few more weeks. If you haven't gotten the book yet, you can get it for a song right now. (Seriously; it's cheaper than "Come a Little Closer" by Cage the Elephant.) One reader called it "a joyfully sarcastic look at our own self-absorption from a Christian perspective." That reminds me: if you post a review of the book in the next three weeks, send me a link and your mailing address, and I'll send you a free copy of my booklet Parable of the Unexpected Guest.

Goonersden brings you news from top football news sites from the likes of ESPN, SkySport, Daily Mail, Daily Star and Metro… We also Analyse football, player, transfer and predict Arsenal starting line-up.
Jack Wilshere wants to stay close to London if he leaves Arsenal this summer.
The England midfielder is up for sale and has just one year left on his contract but so far no deal has been agreed for the 25-year-old.
However, Sky Sports journalist Kaveh Solhekol has given an update on Arsene Wenger's potential deal to get rid of Jack Wilshere.
Antalyaspor say they're in talks to sign Jack Wilshere. Arsenal "want a lot". Arsenal turned down £6m Sampdoria offer last week
— Kaveh Solhekol (@SkyKaveh) July 24, 2017
Sampdoria have so far approached Arsenal with a cheap offer which was instantly turned down a week ago.
And according to Sky reporter Solhekol, the Gunners are now in talks with Turkish side Antalyaspor over Wilshere even though the asking price remains an issue.
Arsenal are currently hoping for a fee of close to £20m, the player himself is understood to be reluctant to move abroad.
Wilshere turned down an offer to move to Roma on loan last season, preferring instead a move to Bournemouth.Loading...

Proving he's the most consistent, longest-running activist in the Shire, Dave Ridley from RidleyReport.com once again returns to Keene to occupy the hallways and confront bureaucrats and politicians with tough questions. If you want to jump straight to the encounter with Keene Police, it's here. However, if you have time, it's one of a series of entertaining videos Ridley recorded while attempting to attend a "public" meeting at Keene State College.
Ridley is known for his excellent "ambush" interviews of politicians and bureaucrats and this series doesn't disappoint with ridiculous reactions a-plenty. In the initial video in the series, he actually gets some answers to his questions from city councilor Phil Jones:
Immediately after, the interactions return to what longtime Ridley Report viewers expect from bureaucrats and political people that Ridley ambushes – evading, cowardice, and excuses:
Someone calls KSC security and an officer Kelly responds demands Ridley's name and threatens to order him off the campus and call Keene Police if he doesn't go:
The encounter with KSC security officer Kelly continues while awaiting the arrival of KPD officers, where in one part the officer claims he's just doing his job. Finally, two KPD officers arrive and demand Ridley leave the campus under threat of trespassing charges and arrest: (skip the walking – he included that for the record, I think)
Ridley then goes to a different city meeting at city hall, where all manner of ridiculous behavior was on display:

I've spent all afternoon thinking about my parents and there is no avoiding the obvious – I'm supposed to be thinking about me, about my life, trying to connect the dots. Since that seems both narcissistic and daunting as hell I'm going to try to write this as a narrative, with snaps, which allows me the luxury of fiddling with design and keeps things at arm's length…a cheat I know, but I am trying and you never know – I may hit psychological pay dirt in the process (by mistake).
So…I was born in February 1973 in a clinic in Johannesburg, apparently to a student and I was given up for adoption after she spent one night with me, at her insistence. I don't know anything else about her and I couldn't care less who the sperm donor was. I was given to a very evangelical Christian orphanage (which makes me wonder if my birth mother was a clapper Christian – perish the thought). I was there for 5 weeks before I was adopted by G (34) and L (40), married for 16 years with no children of their own.
Currently my earliest memories are of sexual 'encounters' with my father. The clearest, earliest memory (other than flashes of oral sex-type feelings from before I had words) is of my father jacking off in front of my cot, with me holding onto the bars, the light coming into the room from the door behind him. I know we moved to a mine 40 minutes outside Johannesburg and I'm told that when my mother started haemorrhaging I ran down the road to a neighbour (aunty A) to call her, though I have no actual memory of that. I was about 2-and-a-half years old at the time. Piecing together the flashes and scraps of memory I think that was the first time I was left alone with my father for any length of time and that was when he first had sex with me. Penetrative sex.
I remember loving my oupa, vaguely remember my Granny-love who smelled faintly of booze and strongly of cigarettes and was very thin. She lived across the road at E's house and she died when I was little. I was afraid of my ouma when I was small – she was mean. I hated her when I got older. I didn't have much contact with my cousins on my dad's side – they were all much older than me. We spent most Christmases with my mom's brothers and their children. I remember playing doctor with T and J, uncle T's boys – we must have been around 4, and I remember being terrified ouma would walk in. I also remember pushing them to do more than they understood.
We lived in C briefly when I was 6 and 7 (1979-1981). I walked to school with J, our domestic worker. DZ was mean to me and said she wouldn't play with me. CR tried to lift up my skirt in line after break and I hit him with my cold drink bottle and broke his tooth. We used to go (as a family) with my ouma and oupa to Maranatha Park, somewhere on the east rand every year for Easter – 3 days of Afrikaans evangelical fervour (the horror, the horror). I was sent to 'sonskyn hoekie' with the other children to sing 'father Abraham had many sons, many sons had father Abraham, I am one of them, and so are you, so let's just praise the lord' with actions…like the clapper hokie pokie. No wonder I'm Jewish (I converted)! I was adopted from the Maranatha orphanage and my mother loved to reminisce about when they got me and how I was a gift from G-d. Sis.
I used to do rude things with the neighbour's kids, the Afrikaans kids next door, the Ns and the girl across the road, an English girl a year younger than me whose name I don't remember – K maybe, or Ky? The Afrikaans girls were M (who was my age) and I think the little one's name was G – can that be a name, she was maybe 4 at the time – there was a boy too maybe 5 years old, though I can't remember his name? I think I hurt the little girl, put a pair of scissors into her vagina and a thermometer. I think she told and I got into trouble. Then in 1981 we moved – on the day of the royal wedding, when Charles and Di got married (29 July 1981) – I remember because I was watching it when they switched the TV off to move it – funny what you remember!
When we moved up to the mine property (that's what we called it – I live on the property) I was 7. I had to catch 2 buses to school, the first at 06h30 which drove us from the mine into town, dropping us off at the Afrikaans high school where we had to wait for another bus to pick us up at 07h00 and take us the rest of the way to school. I remember wishing I was a boy because they got all the cool toys and didn't have to wear dresses and could have short hair.
I was beginning to be less baby fat and more fatso by 7 and I was taken to paediatricians and put on diets. I weighed 42kgs at 7. I used to bleed too, anal bleeds and the paediatrician said my diet was wrong, I needed more fibre. It hadn't stopped by 1981, I was in Std 1 and I was hospitalised for rectal surgery to repair the tears. No-one asked any questions.
I'm a bleeder and started haemorrhaging after the surgery and had to be rushed back into theatre. I remember the blood. Why didn't anyone say, my goodness, this kid has gained 15kgs in 18 months and is bleeding from her arse and fiddling with the neighbours kids, something isn't quite right here?
I didn't have many friends on the property, which was four streets in total, maybe 50 houses. We lived in 1st street, across the road from the 9-hole golf course, down the road from the rec club, the pool and the tennis courts. JF lived next door. She was a year older than me and she moved away when I was 9. JL taught me to swear.
I used to read a lot. Noddy and 'Rupert the Bear' when I was small. I liked 'Mary learns to cook', which taught me how to make pancakes. Then 'Secret 7' and 'Famous 5' (I loved George, obviously), then all the Willard Price Adventure books were my favourite from Std 2-4. I read 'Tiger Adventure first', but I loved 'South Sea Adventure' and 'Underwater Adventure best', with manta rays and flying fish and living in bubbles under the sea. By 11 I had moved on to Lace, all saucy sex scenes, school friendships, rape and pornography. I can't imagine why my mother let me read it, but then again I'm not sure they really cared too much what I read (since my father introduced me to German porn that same year, Lace seemed like Disney I guess).
I also discovered music round then, I'm ashamed to admit a love of Michael Jackson (but this was pre his white paedophile phase, at which point the love was ancient history) Cyndi Lauper, Culture Club, Eurhythmics and Duran Duran. I still love Cyndi and Annie. Music became a way for me to connect to other people, a way to identify, a way to interact with the world and it remains a point of reference. I can remember what was playing for almost any important event in my life.
My father liked country music and professed a love of opera, though there was ABBA and Lance James in the car. We had a Volvo, white with brown leather upholstery, the smell of which I will remember as long as I live – leather and cigarette smoke and dad-smell (sort of Brut/fart/sweat/smoke/leather).
My mother listened to Jim Reeves and religious stuff like Jimmy Swaggart – revolting!
I was also friends with KH, who moved to the property when I was 11, she was 12. We used to play 'A-team' on the roof of her garage and watch Isis on TV. Then she went to high school and I was still in primary school so we didn't talk anymore. My bedroom was lilac when we lived in K, then yellow I think in C, then red and white on D through primary school until I turned 13 and insisted everything had to be black.
My parents' room was yellow and white – my mother still has the same headboard (with my father's ashes in it.) I would lie in bed with my dad while my mom got ready to go to town, or maybe it was for church (so I must have been 10 or 11). The light was yellow through the curtains. He was naked. I remember his hands on my inner thighs, my arse, under my sleep shirt with the smiley face, no panties – never sleep with panties, your cookie needs to breathe my mother said. I think she must have known – how could she not?
I don't remember the sex clearly, though I'm trying to. I know I was lonely. I think I knew from an early age I was gay. I remember talking to my cousin B about it when I was 11 – thank G-d for Martina Navratilova. I saw her and her lover in the Huisgenoot and looked up lesbian in the dictionary and the rest as they say is history. I remember being obsessed with videos about women who were raped and then exacted bloody revenge on their rapists. There was no cinema in C through my childhood so the video shop was a regular Saturday stop. I started finding those sorts of movies when I was maybe 10 or 11 and my parents didn't seem to mind me watching them. I remember being fixated on a movie called Savage Streets, a terrible B-grade movie starring Linda Blair (who I later discovered was the little girl from the Exorcist). I loved that movie, I'd get it week after week and my parents tried to convince me to get something else but I resisted. I must have watched it 20 or 30 times by the time I was 13.
I weighed over 80kgs at 13, almost doubling in size in 6 years. By the time I started High school I stayed indoors a lot and watched videos and read and wished I had someone to love me, someone who saw me and accepted me and wanted to be with me. I was so very lonely and angry and isolated and all I wanted was to find 'my people'.
Even in primary school I used to lie to my classmates and tell them I had lots of friends in E, where my mother's family lived, older friends in a gang, drug-taking tattooed friends. Funny that I would fantasise that into being – they clearly knew I was lying, but I wanted it to be true. Why I wanted the drugs and tattoos and perceived violence I don't know? Maybe I thought if I had 'tough' friends I would be safe (and cool). I seem to have become that which I daydreamed for comfort.
I think I gave up on finding my people and I'm trying to become my own saviour…nothing wrong with that really.
We are all in the process of becoming and I'm doing the best that I can.

Growing Up Right Before My Eyes
It was just last week that I took this picture of him:
When I took it, even sleepy right after his sister woke him up from a nap, I was marveling at how long he could actually sit up by himself.
Oh, how they grow! In that amount of time(a week? a little more or less?), he is officially on the move. He scoots himself everywhere – quickly. Especially to get himself to something he wants to play with or shove in his mouth. Just one week after being amazed that he could sit alone for longer than 2 seconds without tipping over, I've already watched him get himself from his hands and knees to a sitting position all by himself this morning – I stopped counting after seeing it five times.
This smiley, happy boy is officially no longer a tiny infant. Bittersweet for sure, but more on the sweet side. It makes me sad to see my life flashing before my eyes and watching these two grow up with lightning speed, but there's nothing in the world I'd rather do than witness this process of learning and growing. Plus, he still curls up his legs under him when he sleeps and when he's having his diaper changed (a la the fetus position), so he still has tiny little bits of him that give me a dose of tiny baby to ease the transition!

Biomass energy has emerged to be one of the most promising alternative sources of energy. Unlike traditional sources of energy like coal and petroleum, Biomass is less polluting and also helps you to save a lot on your energy bills. In fact, the Government of UK encourages the use of biomass heating systems by offering cash incentives under the renewable heat incentive scheme. This is probably the reason why a great many number of households and commercial establishments in UK are using biomass heating systems to meet their heating requirements. But when it comes to installing a biomass boiler system it is essential to take help of company which have the necessary expertise to deal with the installation, maintenance and other required services. This is because there lot of things that should be done right, if you want to get the optimum performance out of your biomass boiler system. Thankfully there are a few companies in UK who aid you to do all that and much more.
Most of the leading companies in this particular niche area would assist you in every possible way so that you get the ultimate performance from your biomass steam boilers UK. For starters, they would offer you advanced boilers from the leading manufacturing companies like Binder and Hargassner. They would offer you boilers based on capacities. The boilers also differ on the type of wood they use as their fuel. For example, you have wood pellet boilers which use wood pellets as well as log boilers UK which use logs of wood to produce energy. Now having a hi-tech boiler would not do, you need to install it in a proper way. These companies also help you in the installation as well as maintenance of the boiler system. They have a team of professional who would work with due diligence to ensure that your system performs at the desired level without any issues. So contact these professional biomass boiler service companies UK and realise the true potential of this great alternative source of energy!

Most Americans say that they feel stressed out and exhausted most of the time. Their busy lifestyles; high, consistent family, financial and work stress; and fueling their bodies with caffeine, sugar, high energy drinks and junk food to keep going are all culprits in feeling chronically tired. We are survivors! No matter how tired we are, we push our bodies and keep going. This endless cycle becomes a very bad habit and has terrible consequences to our bodies. Nevertheless, having adequate levels of energy is absolutely essential to enjoying life, lifting and maintaining our mood and helping us cope with life's daily stressors.
One of the consequences of chronic high stress is Adrenal Fatigue. The adrenal glands are two walnut sized glands that sit above the kidneys. They are the body's stress handling glands. The adrenal glands can become fatigued or exhausted when the body has been under chronic, high stress for a period of time causing a multitude of symptoms. Some common symptoms of Adrenal Fatigue are listed below. Do they sound familiar?
- Difficulty getting up in the morning
- Low energy throughout the day
- Mood swings, irritability, depression or anxiety
- Difficulty concentrating, poor memory
- Poor sleep cycle
- Hormone imbalances
- Joint and muscle pain
- Frequently sick due to weakened immune system
- Difficulty coping with minor daily stressors
- Weight gain
- Light headedness or dizziness upon standing
- Hair loss
If I suspect a patient has Adrenal Fatigue, there are a number of easy, non-invasive tests I can do in the office to rule it out.
One way to test the adrenal glands is with Applied Kinesiology. Another test is the Blood Pressure Cuff Test. Here, I take a patient's blood pressure when lying down. Then, I have the patient stand up, and I re-take the blood pressure. If the patient is suffering from Adrenal Fatigue, the blood pressure will drop when the patient stands. This is the opposite of what should naturally occur with someone who has balanced adrenals. Generally, when someone stands up, the blood pressure will go up as well within certain parameters.
I also perform an Iris Contraction Test. A light is shined across the pupil of the patient's eye. The pupil should contract and hold. If the Iris cannot hold the contraction, the patient's adrenals are exhausted.
The good news is that Adrenal Fatigue can be treated and should be treated. Restoring the function of your adrenal glands will provide you with more energy and stamina, improved mood, better sleep, a stronger immune system and the ability to cope with stress more effectively.
There are several quality whole food and herbal supplements that I recommend which will support and rebuild the adrenal glands. Most patients report an increase in energy and fewer symptoms in two to four weeks with the supplement protocol. However, depending on the severity and length of time a patient has suffered from adrenal exhaustion or fatigue, it can take many months for a full recovery.
I also perform chiropractic manipulation at the vertebral levels of T11 thru L2, which correlate to the adrenal glands in the body. By keeping the low back in alignment, the nervous system has the ability to run more efficiently and support the function of the adrenal glands.
I also recommend lifestyle changes, which is very important in recovering your energy. People who suffer from Adrenal Fatigue tend to deprive themselves from activities that they enjoy. Work and personal responsibilities become an increasingly high priority and can easily overwhelm valuable personal time. Implementing even small things you enjoy doing into your day will make a big difference. For example, go for a walk and immerse yourself in nature, play with your kids, play with your dogs, start a hobby, read a good book, pray or meditate. Doing something you enjoy, even for short periods of time, is a good way to lower your stress level and calm the adrenal glands.
Initially, I recommend light exercise such as walking, yoga or Pilates. In the beginning strenuous exercise can over fatigue the adrenals causing further exhaustion, so take it easy with your exercise program. I also recommend eating whole, organic vegetables and lean protein. Avoid caffeine and high energy drinks and replace these with lots of filtered water and green teas. Also avoid sugar and empty carbohydrate foods (including fast food).
If you are tired of being tired all the time and want to rule out Adrenal Fatigue, I would be glad to help you get your energy back. As a society, time has become a premium; and we have become so busy taking care of others that we do not take proper care of ourselves. I encourage you to make your health a priority. Everyone deserves to feel their best and enjoy their life. Please contact my office at (530) 894-5990 to schedule an appointment for an adrenal evaluation, and let's get your energy back on track!

The safehouse is a safe which looks like a house. It only appeared in Balance of Flour.
Jorgen had ordered it from the back of a comic book and locked Timmy in it when he had the secret brownie recipe in his head and didn't want Anti-Cosmo and Anti-Wanda to steal it. The house is supposedly magic-proof, but that may have not have been the case. After a second, someone was at the door and Wanda had opened it after hearing Jorgen's voice. To their surprise, it was really Anti-Cosmo in a Jorgen costume and he kidnapped Timmy. However, it turned out that Timmy and Cosmo had disguised themselves as each other in order to protect the recipe.

Minimally Invasive Facial Surgery
Written by Dr. Julian De Silva
What is Minimally Invasive Surgery?
Minimally invasive surgery refers to the use of new and innovative surgical techniques to make smaller incisions in the skin, often just a few millimeters. In the face this can include the use of a 3D telescope to aid visualization of the anatomy to enhance accuracy and safety during surgery. These techniques have revolutionized many surgical fields replacing older surgical techniques with enhanced results and effectiveness. Dr. De Silva trained in the World Renowned centre for minimally invasive techniques in Los Angeles's Beverley Hills. Minimally invasive facial surgery results in quicker recovery, less downtime, natural looking results and avoid unsightly scars.
What are the Advantages of Minimally Invasive Surgery?
The advantages of minimally invasive facial surgery include:
- More accurate surgery: with facial surgery fractions of millimeter define a good result
- Safer surgery: Enable direct visualization of nerve and vasculature, avoiding trauma to these anatomical structures
- Faster Recovery: Patients that undergo minimally invasive surgery have smaller incisions and cuts in their tissues, as a result their recovery is quicker, the associated bruising and swelling is less than more traditional facial surgery
What are the Disadvantages of Minimally Invasive Surgery?
The disadvantages of minimally invasive facial surgery include:
- Technically challenging: Older surgeons tend to use traditional techniques as learning minimally invasive surgery is challenging and associated with a learning curve
- Expensive Equipment: The use of 3D telescopes, fibreoptics and digital camera equipment is costly
- Decision making: The use of minimally invasive facial surgery requires accurate clinical decision making based on sound understanding of its effectiveness and limitations. Patients with marked laxity of the eyelids or large bulbous nasal tip are not good candidates for such techniques. Such facial features are best treated with open surgery that will result in an enhanced long-term result.
What is Dr. De Silva's Surgical Philosophy?
Dr. De Silva surgical philosophy is based on giving his patients natural looking results with the highest possible quality of surgical technique and care. On training in London, there were no surgeons who were able to train him in the use of minimally invasive facial surgery for areas including the brow, the nose and the eyes. Dr. De Silva went abroad to the US widely regarded as a World leader in Cosmetic Surgery to acquire these skills. The use of minimally invasive surgical techniques in his patients has led to considerable improvements in results with minimal or no scarring and faster recovery. The use of 3D telescopic technology has been applied to:
- Endoscopic 3D brow lifting
- Transconjunctival Blepharoplasty (Hidden incision inner lining of eyelid)
- Minimally Invasive Eyelid lifting (Modified blepharoplasty/ canthoplasty)
- Endoscopic 3D Nose Re-shaping (No incision rhinoplasty)
- Minimal Access Face Suspension Lift (hidden incision facelift)
- Internal Ptosis repair (Hidden incision elevation of eyelid)
- Follicular Unit Extraction (Completely avoids linear scar)
Dr. De Silva utilizes these minimally invasive techniques in all suitable cases, the primary importance being giving a patient a natural looking and long-lasting result. These techniques are not suitable for all patients and Dr. De Silva will advise you if open surgery if is a better option for you.

Thesis DisciplineChemistry
Degree NameDoctor of Philosophy
PublisherUniversity of Canterbury. Chemistry
AuthorsWaller, A. G.show all
Reaction of 2,4,6-trialkyl phenols with nitrogen dioxide in organic solvents is known to yield trinitro and dinitro hydroxy cyclohexenones as major products of reaction. These compounds have been postulated as forming via the transient intermediacy of 6-nitrocyclohexa-2,4-dienones. In the first part of the thesis the reactions of the C6-benzyl analogues of 4-t-butyl-2,6- dimethylphenol (206) and 2-t-butyl-4,6-dimethylphenol (216), compounds (229) and (230) respectively, with nitrogen dioxide are shown to give products analogous to those observed in the reactions of the parent phenols. Reaction of 6-benzyl-4-t-butyl-2,6-dimethylcyclohexa-2,4-dienone (229) with nitrogen dioxide in benzene solution is shown to give all four stereoisomeric 2,5-dinitrocyclohex-3-enones (240)-(243), and three of the four possible stereoisomeric 2-hydrox:y-5-nitrocyclohex-3-enones (244)(246). In contrast, reaction of 6-benzyl-2-t-butyl-4,6-dimethylcyclohexa- 2,4-dienone (230) with nitrogen dioxide in dichloromethane solution is shown to yield cyclohex-2-enones as the major products of reaction - namely, the four stereoisomeric 4,5-dinitrocyclohex-2-enones (231)-(234). The cyclohex-3-enones (235)-(238) are isolated as minor products of reaction. In the second part of the thesis, the reactions of p-cymene (401) with nitrogen dioxide in acetic anhydride and dichloromethane solutions are explored. In dichloromethane solution, all the products of reaction, with the exception of 2-nitro-p-cymene (403) and p-nitrotoluene (405), can be accounted for in terms of a mechanism involving initial hydrogen atom abstraction from the iso-propyl group of the p-cymene molecule. In contrast, the reaction of p-cymene in acetic anhydride solution is shown to yield a multitude of products, including 2-nitro-p-cymene (403) and p-nitrotoluene (405), the two substituted aromatic compounds (414) and (415), and the eleven substituted cyclohexenes (410)-(413), (416)-(421) and (434). The mode of formation of these cyclohexenes in particular, is discussed in terms of an overall mechanistic scheme for the reaction of p-cymene in acetic anhydride solution. Throughout the thesis, extensive use is made of single crystal X-ray structure analysis, and high field Fourier transform n.m.r. techniques, in determining molecular structure. The structures of fifteen compounds have been determined by single crystal X-ray structure analyses.

Grape Seed Extract Dosage – When and How Much?
Figuring out the right dosage of natural supplements for you can be challenging considering the often minimal medical data and study information available. Grape seed extract dosage falls into this category as there is really not a clear cut schedule for proper dosing that explains how much you should take to obtain all of the grape seed extract benefits that you are looking for while also explaining the maximum dosage you can take to have your benefits without grape seed extract side effects. Additionally, because of the vast array of uses for grape seed including a purported link between grape seed extract cancer benefits, alleviating skin conditions and even using grape seed extract for allergies, there is a lot of room for variances in dosing because amounts and frequency seem to vary amongst uses.
For instance, many generic studies utilize grape seed extract dosage at between 100 and 300 milligrams per day and this is also the amount that is used in some European countries when prescribed. However, other studies have used a grape seed extract dosage of as high as 720 mg once daily for conditions such as poor blood circulation. Similar trials for this same condition have studied a grape seed extract dosage of up to 300 mg daily for 3 weeks which then was decreased to a maintenance dose of between 40-80 mg daily.
Your best bet when considering a new supplement such as grape seed extract is to begin with the lowest recommended dosage. If you don't experience adverse side effects, you may be able to safely increase your dosage progressively. However, if you start to have a reaction to the extract or it makes you feel unwell, you should discontinue use immediately and seek medical assistance. Advice and guidance from a health care professional should be employed when using supplements. Although natural in composition, many herbal remedies contain powerful compounds that can interfere with medications and also health conditions. As such, it's imperative to speak to your health care provider before starting a supplement regimen and always remember that supplement use is no substitute for medical care in some cases and that not treating health conditions conventionally and using alternative methods instead can lead to unfavorable consequences.

It Is Immoral To Not Resist Aggression
whether in matters personal, political, religious or in statecraft, ... , it matters not, ... , to not resist aggression is to aid and abet the aggressor, and to assure that after your demise at his hands, he will seek the conquest of another. whatever you may feel the worth of the stance to you as a personal matter, by adopting such a stance, you assure the suffering of another: no high blown assertion of morality can escape this essential fact, and to inflict this suffering on another, perhaps less capable of protecting him or herself than you, is immoral, unethical, and unforgivable.
and, it is cowardice.
by not resisting such aggression, to the death if demanded by circumstance or dignity or honor, is to assure that someone else will bear the brunt of your folly, and that you engender your own fate upon the will of another.
i spit in the face of those who blather about ghandi and passive resistance...

Last weekend I did do a from scratch item. Not a whole meal, but just something I was looking to make since Thanksgiving time. I thought pudding would be a nice thing to try from scratch. I have only made pudding from the instant mix (I don't actually eat it that often) and this recipe made it seem really easy…which it was.
I knew I had to make this recipe when I saw it because I was already thinking of pumpkin custard. This pudding seemed close enough.
My only concern was the use of fat free instead of 1% milk. Sometimes the commissary just does not have exactly what you need so improvising and being flexible is key.
I followed the directions and heated the milk.
Then I added the pumpkin.
Next thing I knew it was ready to go into little dessert cups and be chilled for eating later on.
This was delicious. I think the fat free milk did make it a little thinner than I would have expected but that didn't stop me from eating it!
QUESTIONS: What is your favorite kind of pudding? Have you ever made pudding from scratch? What is your favorite way to enjoy pumpkin?
