What Is Figgy Pudding?
What is Figgy Pudding?
We sing about it every year at Christmas time, but few people know what it is. Figgy Pudding is mentioned once in a Victorian Christmas carol and the strange name (combined with the fact that most people have never heard of it) means there's plenty of curiosity about this holiday treat. So what is Figgy Pudding?
In the English Christmas carol "We Wish You a Merry Christmas," Figgy Pudding plays a starring role. In the Christmas carol, a group of party-goers refuse to leave the home of their host until they are served Figgy Pudding. Part of our confusion over just what exactly Figgy Pudding is can be chalked up to miscommunication. When you hear the words "Figgy Pudding", remember that the British use the word "pudding" in places where we in America would say "cake". Recipes for Figgy Pudding have existed for hundreds of years — the earliest on record comes to us from the 15th century.
Figgy Pudding Recipe
1 cup suet
1 cup citron
1 cup sugar
3 large egg yolks
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons rum
1 apple peeled, cored and finely chopped
1 pound dried figs, ground or finely chopped
Grated peel of 1 lemon and 1 orange
1 cup chopped nuts
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 1/2 cups dried bread crumbs
2 teaspoons baking powder
3 large egg whites, stiffly beaten
Prepare a two-quart mold.
Cream together the butter and shortening, gradually adding sugar, egg yolks, milk, extract, apple, figs, lemon, citron, and orange peel. Add the next 6 ingredients, mixing well.
Fold stiffly beaten egg whites into mixture.
Pour into two-quart buttered bowl or mold and place into large shallow pan and steam for four hours.
Figgy pudding is nothing without its custard sauce, so here's that too.
Custard Sauce
2 cups milk
1 large egg
3/4 cups sugar
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon flour
1 tablespoon butter
Scald milk in saucepan, allow to cool.
Mix together remaining ingredients, except for butter. Add to cooled milk. Cook over low heat until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in butter, mixing well.
Serve pudding warm with custard sauce or sweetened whipped cream.
Modern Figgy Pudding Recipes
Steamed fig and plum spice cakes are still popular in many parts of the world, especially at Christmas time. While contemporary recipes may not be authentic figgy pudding, they are similar in flavor and texture to bread pudding with figs and spices. The three or four hours of difficult steaming in Figgy Pudding recipes means that most home chefs aren't going to attempt to cook one.
Steaming a Figgy Pudding is a matter of using the right tools. Much like working with chocolate, making a Figgy Pudding generally means filling one bowl with the pudding mix and placing that bowl inside a larger structure partially full of boiling water. This cooks the pudding with indirect heat, low and slow like a backyard BBQ. This cooking method can be seen on a smaller scale in desserts like panna cotta.
Traditional Figgy Pudding Recipes
The most common and most traditional version of figgy pudding is similar to a kind of carrot cake — the base is essentially the same, although in the case of Figgy Pudding, it is normally blended with a custard. Chopped figs, dates, or other tough fruits are added in the interest of flavor and texture — the dates and figs are traditionally chopped rather than left whole.
The spice mixture in a traditional Figgy Pudding are also similar to a carrot or spice cake. Combine cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg and you've got a very traditional Christmas flavor. The part of the Figgy Pudding that many people shy away from — heavy cream, sugar, eggs, and whole milk — are necessary to build a proper custard, though they add a massive amount of unhealthy fat. Traditionally, Figgy Pudding is spiked with some sort of alcohol for flavor — usually cognac or rum.
Altered Forms of Figgy Pudding
You can get really fancy when making Figgy Pudding. (See Gourmet Food for more information.) Many people in the UK purchase or make fig-infused breads to make breadcrumbs for Figgy Pudding. This expensive step adds a mild flavor to the mixture. You don't have to use fig-infused bread, but it is traditional, so if you're going for authenticity, this item is a must have.
The addition of something called suet in traditional recipes causes many people pause — suet is animal fat gathered from around the animal's kidneys. Though most recipes for Figgy Pudding no longer include suet, a true Figgy Pudding must have it. Using butter or shortening in place of suet is a perfect way to update the dish for today's kitchens, but suet gives the pudding its texture. A suet and fig cake steamed over an open fire — is there anything that says "Christmas" with more authority?
Why Do the Carolers Demand Figgy Pudding?
It is hard to say why exactly an obscure dessert like Figgy Pudding gets top billing in a popular Christmas carol. We know the dish had been popular for a few hundred years before the song was written, and we know that it had only recently taken up its place as the go to Christmas dessert, but why the writer of the carol included such a strong reference to the stuff is unknown.
In three or four hours, and after using a lot of odd ingredients, you can appease your carolers with a delicious British Figgy Pudding. Steaming is the only way to go, and though it is time consuming (not to mention extremely hot work), you have to remember that steaming was the main method of cooking in Britain before regulated heating systems became a reality.
Classically speaking, the reveal of a good traditional Figgy Pudding was a big moment at Victorian Christmas feasts. At the time of the reveal itself, the Figgy Pudding could be a solid dessert (and a huge success for the cook) or it would be soggy and ruined. Much like Christmas celebrations, a Figgy Pudding either works or it doesnt.

These bad boys fall into the dessert category for me, so I wouldn't normally encourage anyone to have such treats around the house, but my dad's honey is just the most amazing thing, and I wanted to come up with a way to really highlight its sweetness.
In an effort the last few months to stay away from grains, raw almonds have found their way into our pantry along with a few other nuts and seeds like cashews, pumpkin and sunflower. Apparently when eaten in small quantities, these powerhouses of life provide healthy fats, omega-3 as well as a myriad of other vitamins and minerals. That is when they are raw. Turning them into dessert by toasting them probably diminishes much of the health benefits. Regardless, these brittle bars are a really tasty snack made from all whole foods. If anything, they are a good source of energy for your average marathoner or long-distance biker. Since Jeff completed 72 miles this morning, I think I'll encourage him to have a few of these!
Once these cool, they do become brittle, however as they rise to room temperature the honey begins to soften. I would recommend cutting them and storing them in the freezer in an airtight container.
- 1 Tbs. coconut oil
- 3/4 cup honey
- 2 cups whole almonds
- 1 cup whole cashews
- 1 cup hulled pumpkin seeds
- 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
- 1 cup large flake coconut
- 1 tsp. flaked kosher salt
In a non-reactive sauce pan slowly melt the coconut oil. Add the honey and bring it to a simmer. Stir frequently and allow the mixture to simmer for about ten minutes.
While the honey simmers, toast the nuts separately as the small ones will burn if you try to toast them together. After each batch is toasted pour them out onto plates to cool in a single layer.
Once the nuts are all toasted and the honey has simmered and evaporated for ten minutes, pour the honey mixture over the nuts and mix well.
Pour the mixture out into a 9×9 square baking pan lined with parchment paper. The bars will be about an inch thick in this pan. Use another sheet of parchment on top to press the mixture firmly together.
Place in the refrigerator to cool.
Cut into squares and store in airtight container in freezer.

US$ 28 Billion:How much can surface mining market reach by 2022?
Surface mining equipment market size is projected to exceed USD 28 billion by 2022, growing at a CAGR of 3.6% from 2015 to 2022. Escalating demand for metal and mineral commodities is anticipated to drive the industry growth. Increasing mining activities and growing demand for technically advanced solutions mainly in developing countries is estimated to fuel the industry over the forecast period. It aids in cost optimization owing to its capability of crushing, cutting and loading in a single working pass.
Open pit surface mining equipment market size accounted for over 30% of the overall industry share in 2014 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of over 3.7% and reach over USD 9 billion by 2022. This type of mining is mainly used for excavating diamond ore, palabora copper ore and sishen iron-ore.
Technology innovation offers precision and helps in time saving by enabling the work process faster and easier. Factors such as health and safety issues coupled with lack of skill technicians might hinder surface mining equipment market size growth. Therefore, how much can surface mining market reach US$ 28 billion by 2022?
Four quick factor analysis will give you an answer.
1、Technique Analysis
Mountain top removal mining equipment market size was valued at over USD 5.5 billion in 2014. The surge in the sector is mainly because it requires less number of workers and it assures maximum coal recovery as compared to the other conventional methods. Strip mining is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 3.5% from 2015 to 2022 and it is likely to exceed USD 12 billion by 2022.
2、Mineral Extracted Analysis
Metallic ore accumulated around 46% of the overall surface mining equipment market share in 2014. It is likely to reach USD 13 billion by 2022 due to rising demand for metals such as gold, zinc, silver and copper etc. Non-metallic ore is forecast to account for more than 30% of the overall industry share by 2022 and would be valued at over USD 9 billion by 2022. The hike in demand can be addressed to flourishing use of salts, lime and phosphate.
3、Regional Analysis
North America, including U.S. surface mining equipment market size, is anticipated to be driven by the presence of the Appalachian region as it contains more than 50 billion tons of coal reserves. It accounted for over 25% of the overall industry share in 2014 and is likely to be valued over USD 7 billion by 2022.

He was getting on amazingly well; wonderfully prosperous.
But by and by there comes a war. If you go into Sodom, you must take
Sodom's judgment when it comes, for it is bound to come. The battle
turned against those five cities of the plain and they took Lot and
his wife and all that they had, and one man escaped and ran off to
Hebron and told Abram what had taken place. Abram took his
servants,--three hundred and eighteen of them,--went after these
victorious kings, and soon returned with all the booty and all the
On Abram's way back with the spoils one of the strangest scenes of
history occurs. Whom should he meet but Melchizedek, who brought out
bread and wine; and the priestly king blessed the Father of the
Faithful. After the old king of peace had blest him, he met the King
of Sodom, and the King of Sodom said, "You take the money, and I
will take the people"; but Abram replied:
"Not a thing will I take, not even the shoe-latchets, lest thou
shouldst say, I have made Abram rich."
There is another surrender. There was a temptation to get rich at
the hands of the King of Sodom. But the King of Salem had blessed
him, and this world did not tempt him. It tempted Lot, and no doubt
Lot thought Abram made a great mistake when he refused to take this
wealth; but Abram would not touch a thing; he spurned it and turned
from it. He had the world under his feet; he was living for another
world. He would not be enriched from such a source.
Every one of us is met by the prince of this world and the Prince of
Peace. The one tempts us with wealth, pleasure, ambition: but our
Prince and Priest is ready to succor and strengthen us in the hour
of temptation.
A friend of mine told me some years ago that his wife was very fond
of painting, but that for a long time he never could see any beauty
in her paintings; they all looked like a daub to him. One day his
eyes troubled him and he went to see an oculist. The man looked in
amazement at him and said:
"You have what we call a short eye and a long eye, and that makes
everything a blur."
He gave him some glasses that just fitted him, and then he could see
clearly. Then, he said, he understood why it was that his wife was
so carried away with art, and he built an art gallery, and filled it
full of beautiful things; because everything looked so beautiful
after he had had his eyes straightened out.

This post was written by Clarence Anthony, Executive Director of the National League of Cities.
This government shutdown is appalling.
First, we hoped it wouldn't happen and that Congress would arrive at a common sense solution at the last minute. Now, we simply hope it won't last too long.
This is government by manufactured crisis, and it's not how cities govern, that's for sure. The federal government would do well to take a page, or at this point a chapter, from cities' books on how to lead.
The two chambers of Congress remain at a standoff, leaving federal government operations at a standstill and more than 800,000 people furloughed. Being out of work, whether it's for a few days or a few weeks puts hardworking American families in a perilous position. Some will not be able to pay their mortgage, or will have to choose between paying bills and putting food on the table.
Throughout all this, cities are doing the necessary work to keep our country moving forward.
However, many cities are in a fragile economic recovery period, one that could easily be stalled by the economic fallout from a federal shutdown. Depending on how long the shutdown continues, cities are facing the possibility of having to spend down reserve funds, pare back programs, and reduce services even more than they already have over the last four years.
No matter how you feel about the health care law, we cannot have the budget process hijacked by this political theater, especially at a time when cities are starting to get back on their feet, so to speak, after being knocked down by the Great Recession, not to mention sequestration. Families should not have to suffer because a select few Congressmen seek to gain politically from this manufactured crisis.
NLC is calling on Congress to pass a clean continuing resolution that will fund the federal government through fiscal year 2014.
Cities Lead
Regardless of the inexcusable behavior of Washington politicians, cities will continue to lead, balancing budgets, listening to the concerns of their residents, and coming up with solutions to make the places that we live and work better for all citizens, regardless of political stripe.
This strong leadership also means taking action to change the unfortunate situation we have found ourselves in. Call your Members of Congress today – put them on speed dial and call their cell phones – because many of them have sent home their aides and assistants.
Rome wasn't built in a day, and unfortunately it appears it's going to take longer than that to get Congress to pass a budget and do what they were elected to do – govern this great country.
It's going to take pressure from you to make that happen. Call your Congressperson now.

Fox Adds Pair of Family Comedies From 'Friends,' 'Reba' Alums
Fox is adding a pair of family comedies to its pilot offerings.
The network has picked up single-camera entries The Enforcers and an untitled Chris Case interracial comedy to pilot, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
The Enforcers hails from Friends alums Sherry Bilsing-Graham and Ellen Kreamer and is described as a female buddy comedy about two wildly different single mothers with dreams of being police officers who find themselves partnered as inspectors in the Code Enforcement Department. Instead of fighting crime, they have been relegated to handling petty code breaking, like noise complaints, tree trimming and water misuse.
From Warner Bros. Television, Bilsing-Graham and Kreamer will pen the script and exec produce the comedy alongside Modern Family Emmy winner Gail Mancuso, who will direct.
The untitled Case (Reba) interracial comedy, meanwhile, hails from 20th Century Fox Television and follows Jay "Havoc" Hammond, an African-American, ex-NFL lineman who recently moved in with his white wife and her two oddball sons, as he struggles to win the most challenging game of his life: fatherhood. Case will pen the script and exec produce alongside Chris Spencer, Evan Silverberg and Daniel Rappaport. Malcolm D. Lee will also exec produce and direct the pilot.
Friday's pickups grow Fox's comedy pilot offerings to six — including Son of Zorn, which was developed off-cycle and has already been picked up to series. Of the network's comedy pilots, five are produced in-house, with only The Enforcers (Warner Bros. Television) hailing from an outside studio. All told, the network now has 16 total pilots with only two — The Enforcers and drama Recon — hailing from an outside studio (both are WBTV).
For WBTV, meanwhile, The Enforcers becomes the independent studio's 12th overall sale this pilot season. The company has two at ABC, CBS and Fox as well as three at NBC and The CW.
Both orders come as family comedies have become the can't-miss story of pilot season as every broadcast network has multiple variations on the tried and true genre. Overall orders, meanwhile, now sit at 82 (down from 85 a year ago) as many insiders expected total volume to be down this season.
Keep up with all the latest pickups, castings and eventual series orders with THR's handy guide to pilot season.

The History of Harvard's Commencement, Explained
In the penultimate series of 2018, the Harvard baseball team dropped two of three to Cornell in Ithaca, N.Y., to fall a game behind Columbia for the second Ivy League spot with just one series left in the regular season.
The series against the Big Red concluded a grueling stretch of nine games in eight days for the Crimson. Harvard (20-19, 10-8 Ivy) got off to a great start in that stretch, winning five of the first six, including a sparkling sweep over Princeton to vault into Ivy contention, but couldn't put away an upstart Big Red (11-18-1, 6-9) team to cap it off.
Visiting Hoy Field over the weekend, the Crimson burst out of the gates hot in all three matchups against Cornell, jumping out to leads of 4-0, 4-0, and 3-0, but fell prey to the Big Red offense in disappointing 10-8 and 7-4 losses in games one and two. Harvard avoided a sweep by holding on for a 6-2 victory in the series-capper on Sunday, staying within striking distance of Columbia, which took two of three from Penn to inch ahead in the table.
"Everyone on the team doesn't think that we played as well as we have been playing in the past, and as we could play," said junior first baseman Pat McColl. "It was good to come out on Sunday with a win to finish off the weekend, but we're definitely pretty disappointed with Saturday."
In the race for the top Ivy League spots, in which the top two finishers in the conference standings will play a winner-take-all championship series in mid-May, the series was a crucial one. Cornell doesn't have a shot at winning the Ivy, but taking two of three from a high-flying Crimson team hoping for more certainly altered the race.
"It definitely wasn't the result that we were looking for," said junior center fielder Ben Skinner. "Thought we put up a decent effort, ran into a team that was hot. We're definitely a little disappointed, but we're trying to have a short memory with this one, and we're looking forward to the series against Dartmouth."
The race is now one entirely for second place—preseason favorite Yale is now untouchable in first with a 14-4 conference record, while Columbia and Harvard sit a game apart at 11-7 and 10-8 in the Ancient Eight, respectively.
If both falter, Dartmouth (11-20-1, 7-6-1) in fourth can overtake both teams with a stellar run to end the season. The Big Green control its own fate—the Crimson takes on Dartmouth to close the season in two weeks.
"[My body's] a little beat up from a lot of games, but we have two weeks here, with finals, to get ready and prepare for Dartmouth and finish off the season strong." McColl said.
Harvard held onto an early lead for the first time all weekend, making single tallies in the first, second, and third hold up for a 6-2 victory on a Sunday afternoon in Ithaca that featured light snow and rain.
Junior designated hitter P.J. Robinson provided an RBI single and a solo shot in the first and third and Skinner lifted a sac fly in the second to account for the Crimson's 3-0 leading coming out of the third inning.
Junior righty Simon Rosenblum-Larson put up scoreless innings after each time Harvard scored, one of the most important things a pitcher can do. The team leader in K/9 and second-leading pitcher on team in innings pitched was effective through the first three, giving up no hits, despite walking three and hitting a batter. Rosenblum-Larson's final line was 6.1 IP, two hits, one earned run, and five walks with nine punchouts.
Sophomore Keiran Shaw and sophomore two-way player Hunter Bigge combined to pitch the final 2.2 and bring home the W.
Cornell made it close with a two-run seventh to cut the lead to 3-2, but senior second baseman Matt Rothenberg, Skinner, and Bigge all knocked in RBI hits to swell the lead to 6-2 in the eighth and ninth.
Robinson finished the day 3-for-4 with two runs scored and two RBIs, while Skinner also posted two RBIs in a 2-for-4 showing.
Robinson is now third in the Ivy League with a .444 on-base percentage in conference play and sixth in both batting average and slugging percentage. Skinner is third with 27 hits in Ivy competition.
Sunday's snow and rain came after Saturday featured both a sunny, bright morning and a colder, rainy afternoon. The weekend's weather didn't contribute to ideal baseball-playing conditions, but McColl downplayed the effects they had on gameplay.
"The weather conditions definitely weren't great all weekend," McColl said. "I think it affected [gameplay] a little bit, but we definitely didn't play as well on defense as we should've, regardless of the weather."
Five of the top six hitters in the Cornell lineup posted an RBI each to lead the Big Red to a comeback win over the Crimson, 7-4, in the second Saturday game.
Freshman pitcher Buddy Hayward pitched 4.1 stellar innings of one-hit, seven-strikeout ball in relief of junior starter Kevin Stone, who got the loss after giving up 10 hits and three earned runs in 3.2 IP, but the rookie's hold couldn't do anything about an offense that was held scoreless after the second inning.
Big Red righty Seth Urbon defanged the Harvard attack after giving up four runs through the first two innings. The sophomore settled in for 7.0 IP and worked several short scoreless innings as his offense started the rally behind him.
Led by senior offensive heavyweights Dale Wickham and Ellis Bitar, the Cornell offense scored twice in the second, once in the third, and put up a decisive four-spot in the fourth to take a 7-4 lead that lasted for the remainder of the game.
The Crimson's best chance to get back into the game was when it had runners on first and third with two outs in the fifth, but the opportunity was quickly snuffed by Urbon.
The Big Red ended up outhitting Harvard, 11-5, despite making four errors to the Crimson's two.
Riding on a stretch of five wins in six games, Harvard may have been caught off-guard in game one by a feisty Cornell squad that came back from a 4-0 deficit and took a surprising 10-8 offensive-brawl victory.
Defensive mistakes came back to bite the Crimson in full force on Saturday. Harvard made four costly errors in the field accounting for five unearned runs.
The miscues forced the team's ace, senior righty Noah Zavolas, to stay out on the mound after the inning should have been over. Zavolas, having already pitched in all three series in the grueling nine-game stretch, extended his pitch count to 103 before bowing out after 5.0 IP, six hits, six runs, and only one earned run.
"Defensively, we didn't do a good job," Skinner said. "We didn't give Noah the support that he needed. Unfortunately, that ended up costing us—we made some errors that ended up having a significant impact on the game. We definitely want to play solid defense, and that's not something we were able to do [in game one]."
Cornell did its part with timely hitting, making the Crimson pay for giving away free outs.
Led by the middle of the order—Big Red hitters two through five in the lineup did huge damage, going 8-for-16 on the day with five RBIs and eight runs scored—the Cornell offense put up a three-spot in the third and two more in the fourth to take a 5-4 lead.
After Harvard knotted it up at 5-5 on a sac fly from senior outfielder Austin Black, the home team pulled away with a four-spot in the sixth against Crimson freshman reliever Jack Mahala. The damage done, the 9-5 lead was insurmountable for Harvard, even with seventh- and eighth-inning rallies to bring it back to 10-8.
Errors on defense have been weakness the squad has had all year long, as the Crimson is tied with Princeton for the Ivy League lead in most errors made in conference play at 54.
Sophomore outfielder Jake Suddleson staked the Crimson to an early lead, lacing an RBI double down the left-field line to score two in the first inning and coming around to score on a wild pitch to make it 4-0. Bigge knocked an RBI single through in the third to make it 5-1, setting the stage for Cornell's comeback.

The Times of India on the intensified competition surrounding fashion online in India:
The increased focus on fashion is critical for Amazon India and other online marketplaces, which are staring at stiff competition from the Flipkart, Myntra and Jabong combine, which commands close to 55% market share in the fashion category, according to market research firm RedSeer Consulting.
This could very well lead to the first incident where the separate organization Amazon set up in India could come up with products and processes that will help Amazon as a whole:
"We have a separate technology team focused on fashion, who are trying to create digital features and enhancements around problems specific to this category, such as sizing. Apart from this, we are working towards faster and smoother returns and have introduced special packaging for better consumer experience," said Mayank Shivam, category leader at Amazon Fashion.
Amazon is still comparatively weak when it comes to fashion compared to other product categories. (Hence Zalando and other online fashion retailers can succeed even in markets with a strong Amazon presence. Somebody should tell U.S. venture capitalists.)
Amazon.in surpassed Flipkart as the most downloaded mobile app on Google and Apple app stores during the first quarter of this year, according to The Times of India.
Meanwhile, the price war in India continues:
Amazon has decided to cut the commission it gets from some large and preferred sellers by 30-50% on the condition that the saving is passed on to consumers, according to executives from four large online sellers. Non-preferred sellers may have to bear the discount entirely, although the online marketplaces will help liquidate their old stock through promotions and prominent displays.
Flipkart and Snapdeal are coming up with a similar strategy, sellers on the two platforms said. They plan to offer credit to sellers, equivalent to the discount offered, a practice that's common in offline trade.

Fit bit straps too small
I would like to purchase a fit bit, but your straps are too small. Yes I am overweight and I need an 8.5 to 9 inch stap. You would think the folks who make these would know that the people who really need them are a larger size and they would make the appropriate size staps for us. Get smart Fit Bit and make some money
You might want to try the FitBit website. They do make an XL strap. HSN just doesn't sell it. It will be more expensive than HSN's price, but if you need that size. You can also buy just the strap there.

The Batcher allows us to automatically assign the newly created version as a member of a version set. However, it does not allow us to make the newly created version the Main Version. If that were made possible, that would satisfy all of my needs with regard to making version sets; no Version Detection Wizard or similarly functioning batch module would be needed.
The practical application is that I always use the Batcher to create "Large JPEG" and "Web JPEG" versions from my RAW versions. In IDimager V5, I then use the Version Detection Wizard to version the three images though making the "Large JPEG" version as my Main Version.
If there is some other way to meet my batch versioning needs using Supreme, I'm eager to learn about it.

In 1935, the father of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud, was contacted by a worried mother who was seeking treatment for her son's apparent homosexuality. Freud, who believed that all humans are attracted to both sexes in some capacity, responded with the following letter of advice.
(The letter was later passed on to Alfred Kinsey and reproduced in The American Journal of Psychiatry in 1951, hence the note attached to its foot.)
Transcript follows.
(Source: The Truth Tree; Image of Sigmund Freud via Multiart.)
April 9th 1935
Dear Mrs [Erased],
I gather from your letter that your son is a homosexual. I am most impressed by the fact that you do not mention this term yourself in your information about him. May I question you why you avoid it? Homosexuality is assuredly no advantage, but it is nothing to be ashamed of, no vice, no degradation; it cannot be classified as an illness; we consider it to be a variation of the sexual function, produced by a certain arrest of sexual development. Many highly respectable individuals of ancient and modern times have been homosexuals, several of the greatest men among them. (Plato, Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, etc). It is a great injustice to persecute homosexuality as a crime – and a cruelty, too. If you do not believe me, read the books of Havelock Ellis.
By asking me if I can help, you mean, I suppose, if I can abolish homosexuality and make normal heterosexuality take its place. The answer is, in a general way we cannot promise to achieve it. In a certain number of cases we succeed in developing the blighted germs of heterosexual tendencies, which are present in every homosexual in the majority of cases it is no more possible. It is a question of the quality and the age of the individual. The result of treatment cannot be predicted.
What analysis can do for your son runs on a different line. If he is unhappy, neurotic, torn by conflicts, inhibited in his social life, analysis may bring him harmony, peace of mind, full efficiency, whether he remains a homosexual or gets changed. If you make up your mind he should have analysis with me — I don't expect you will — he has to come over to Vienna. I have no intention of leaving here. However, don't neglect to give me your answer.
Sincerely yours with best wishes,
P.s. I did not find it difficult to read your handwriting. Hope you will not find my writing and my English a harder task.

We visited our daughter in the city for the Father's Day weekend. That is always nice. Rana always manages to find the perfect gift for every occasion. This time was no different, she included in Roger's package a jar of homemade granola from the Farmer's Market. It is yummy, but as I was reading the ingredients, I was thinking.... I could make this.
Last evening I decided to search out a recipe and give it a shot. Of course, my first place to look for any recipe is from Ina Garten....a.k.a The Barefoot Contessa. I just love this girl...she's what it's all about. I have watched her cooking shows and I feel like I'm right there in her kitchen enjoying a big glass of chilled white wine, watching her work. She just has that calming effect on me. If you haven't already watched a show of hers, do yourself a favor, pour a coffee or a glass of wine and settle in to watch one....it won't be your last.
Sooooooo....I did find a recipe for granola from Ina Garten on the Food Network site. That link takes you right to the recipe for Homemade Granola. Here's how mine looked.....
|Great wholesome ingredients
|The aroma from the oats and honey were just dreamy!!
|Here's how it looked as I prepared to put it in the oven
|Yummy....and the smell of that stuff baking was divine!!
|I added different berries to each jar
On to my rhubarb tale. Roger's brother, Cal, grows the sweetest rhubarb I've ever tasted. He brings me huge batches at least twice each summer. When I got my first batch yesterday, I cleaned it all up and made a little batch of jam for Roger. He likes it cooked for a very short time, so some of the rhubarb holds it shape. I usually make a small batch a few times each summer. It is delicious as a topping for vanilla ice-cream, add a couple spoonfuls to your plain yogurt or oatmeal, and of course as a jam on toast or bagels!!
|I love to eat rhubarb right out of the garden...it is sweet and tart at the same time.
|I only cook until the rhubarb starts to get tender-----2 cups of rhubarb and 1/2 cup sugar
Cheers everybody ;o)

It's Pie Week! This buttery, rich grain-free pecan pie is made with maple syrup instead of corn syrup, and has a mildly sweet coconut flour crust that crumbles in your mouth. Pecan pie is always a little bit about indulgence, but I prefer to call it an opportunity to really savor your food. And in this case, you can do that without any grains in the mix. If you aren't on GAPS or don't have a grain or wheat allergy, use my sprouted flour pie crust recipe.
The secret weapon in this recipe? Well, there are three actually: toasting the pecans yourself, using maple syrup instead of that dreaded corn syrup, and adding a little bourbon to the filling. All these flavors combine to really bring out the complex flavor of the pecans and deep notes of vanilla, caramel, and molasses.
Other Pie Week recipes: Homemade Apple Pie, Key Lime Pie, Jumbleberry Pie.
Other pie recipes: French Silk Pie, Heart Tarts.
Equipment Needed:
- measuring cups and spoons, food processor
- rolling pin, glass pie plate
- large saucepan, whisk, rubber scraper
- jelly roll pan, cooling rack
Grain-Free Pie Crust
6 tablespoons butter, cold (buy grass-fed butter here)
1 cup coconut flour (buy coconut flour here)
2 fresh eggs
1 teaspoon honey (buy raw honey here)
1/4 teaspoon sea salt (buy unrefined sea salt here)
1/2 cup shredded coconut (buy unsweetened shredded coconut here)
water, as needed
egg white for brushing
- In a food processor, pulse butter and coconut flour together until crumbs form the size of peas.
- Add eggs, honey, sea salt, and shredded coconut, pulsing to combine. Add spoonfuls of water if needed, until the dough comes together.
- Roll the dough out with arrowroot powder or almond flour to keep from sticking. Place the dough into the pie plate and press the edges to adhere. If the dough is too crumbly to roll out, simply press into the pie plate in an even layer. Set aside.
Pecan Pie
1 cup maple syrup (buy organic, grade B maple syrup here)
1 cup whole cane sugar (buy whole cane sugar here)
1/2 cup heavy cream (find raw milk and cream here)
1 tablespoon molasses (buy unsulphured molasses here)
4 tablespoons butter cut into 1/2″ pieces
1/2 teaspoon salt (buy unrefined sea salt here)
6 large egg yolks, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (buy organic extracts here)
1 tablespoon good bourbon
1 1/2 cups toasted and roughly chopped pecans (how to soak and dehydrate nuts here, where to buy good quality nuts here)
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- In a large saucepan, heat the maple syrup, sugar, cream and molasses over medium high heat, stirring frequently until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat, set aside, and let cool for 5 minutes.
- Whisk the butter pieces and salt into the slightly cooled sugar mixture. After the butter is melted, add the egg yolks, vanilla, and bourbon.
- Put the toasted pecans in a single layer on the bottom of the prepared pie crust. Pour the filling into the pie crust.
- Place the pecan pie on a jelly roll pan and bake on a lower rack in the oven. As soon as the pie goes into the oven, reduce the temperature to 325 degrees. Then, bake for 50-60 minutes or until the middle is nearly set and only wiggles slightly when gently shaken.
- Cool for 1 hour on a wire rack, then transfer to the refrigerator for 3 hours to set up completely. Serve pecan pie at room temperature, with sweetened whipped cream.

Andrew Niccol (Gattaca) was once attached to write and direct the adaptation of Stephanie Meyer's novel The Host. However, while Niccol completed the screenplay, he decided to make his next directorial feature the sci-fi flick Next (formerly titled I'M.Mortal, then titled Now, and according to Deadline, now titled "Next"). But with shooting on Next completed, Niccol has now returned to The Host and will direct from his original screenplay. As we previously reported, Saoirse Ronan has signed on to star as Melanie Stryder, a young freedom fighter in a post-apocalyptic Earth who's implanted with an alien life form known as a "Soul". The "Soul" (named "Wanderer") wants the location of the woman's compatriots, but instead begins to become overwhelmed with Melanie's memories and emotions and starts to connect with her host's old life, including a romantic entanglement with Melanie's boyfriend. I'll leave it for you to decide if that counts as cheating on the boyfriend's part.
Niccol's Next or Now or whatever-the-hell-it's-called stars Amanda Seyfried, Justin Timberlake, and Cillian Murphy and is set to open on October 28th. The Host is currently picking up financing at Cannes. Hit the jump for a synopsis of the novel.
Here's the synopsis for Stephanie Meyer's The Host:
Melanie Stryder refuses to fade away. The earth has been invaded by a species that take over the minds of human hosts while leaving their bodies intact. Wanderer, the invading "soul" who has been given Melanie's body, didn't expect to find its former tenant refusing to relinquish possession of her mind.
As Melanie fills Wanderer's thoughts with visions of Jared, a human who still lives in hiding, Wanderer begins to yearn for a man she's never met. Reluctant allies, Wanderer and Melanie set off to search for the man they both love.
Featuring one of the most unusual love triangles in literature, THE HOST is a riveting and unforgettable novel about the persistence of love and the essence of what it means to be human. [Amazon]

So, fitting somewhere in that gene pool, we fled to the mountains for a long weekend at Castleburn Lake. We walked, we hiked, we ate, we drank, we talked – in the fresh air and the sunshine. Yes, we worked – not quite at the level of zen disengagement (yet). I took photographs, a lot of photographs – the joys of digital.
Trying out the whole "theme" idea this week – this first picture was taken while crossing an open field next to the river (luxuriously full after the good summer rains). In colour it was a fairly run of the mill collapsed tree, in black and white somewhat apocalyptic
A little further along the "singing" waters was the remains on a tree that had literally been taken out by, what must have been, a humungous lightning strike!
Somehow this black and white is almost better in colour – if that makes sense.
PS. Apologies for the bunched up post but WordPress doesn't seem to want to give me any spacing between paragraphs and pictures!

For over the last year the buzz in ecclesiology has been the discussion of the missional church. "If your church is not missional then it is not fulfilling God's purpose", is the cry of many. It is probably fair to say that much of the conversation concerning the missional church has been held in the arena of practical ecclesiology. That is, describing what a missional church looks like as it lives out the mission in its local context. While the church needs a practical vision for the mission of the church, there has not been enough discussion regarding the biblical theological concept of mission as the foundation for being missional. In an effort to fill this space Michael W. Goheen has written an enlightening book A Light to the Nations: The Missional Church and the Biblical Story.
"Mission", as Goheen defines it, "is the role and identity of the church in the context of the biblical story (p. 4)." Thus, being missional is not about "describing the activity of the church but the very essence and identity of the church as it takes up its role in God's story in the context of its culture and participates in God's mission to the world (p. 4)." Put another way, "Mission is what God is doing for the sake of the world: it is God's long-term plan to renew creation. The people of God are missional in that they are taken up into this work for the sake of the world (p. 25)." So, since much of the discussion on the missional church has been dominated by the pragmatic implications of the mission of the church, there has been more discussion on its activity rather than its identity and essence. Goheen believes we need to get back to the mission of the church as found in the biblical story (biblical theology) and then move forward from there lest we continue to lose our way.
A Light to the Nations can be summed up in three main stages that present the biblical development of the people of God as missional people: (1) OT Israel as the beginning of the people of God, (2) the coming of Jesus to restore the people of God and (3) the NT church as the reconstituted people of God.
In the search for the uncovering of the mission of the church as found in its biblical theological context, Goheen begins in the Old Testament. The OT is the only proper place to begin for Goheen because the place of the church in the mission of God is the same as and a continuation of Israel's but with resurrection implications. This is a necessary corrective to much of the missional church discussion. Following Gerhard Lohfink's comments Goheen states:
The church was not founded or established for the first time in the New Testament. Rather, the church is a covenant community that has been gathered and restored to its original calling. A proper understanding of the church begins with Israel – its role and identity, its relation to other nations – because the church is Israel's heir (p. 21).
Take a moment to soak that statement in – the church is Israel's heir. For Goheen, there is only one people of God and therefore one mission of God for His people. This mission begins in the OT with Israel and continues with the church as the reconstituted people of God.
OT Israel as the beginning of the people of God
The mission of God begins with Abraham in Genesis 12: 1-3. Amidst the many things mentioned in these verses there are two aspects that help to define the mission of the church. First, Abraham is chosen to receive the blessings of God. God's election of a people (Israel) is for the purpose of mission. Second, as recipients of God's blessings God's people are to in turn mediate those blessings to the world. From Genesis 12 we move to Exodus 1-18 where we see God releasing Israel from their captivity in order "to fulfill its Abrahamic role and identity (p. 34)." Once Israel is delivered from captivity they are given the covenant at Sinai which functions to show that they are bound to God and not Pharaoh. At Sinai God tells Israel how they are to live in order to receive God's blessings and how they are to mediate those blessings to the nations (p. 37). Exodus 32-34 describes how God will dwell with Israel which is important for Israel to be able to carry out their two sided purpose.
Flowing from Sinai to Israel's missional living is the threefold role and identity of Israel. First, Israel was to be a people in the center of the nations. Surely this was their position when they entered the Promised Land in Joshua. Israel was to visibly live out their identity before the nation's such that they would desire to come and see and join. They are not to be passive observers but active engagers "with the pagan cultures of the surrounding nations, by which it is to confront idolatry with the claims of the living God (p. 53)." Second, Israel was to function as a priestly kingdom. The life surrounding the priesthood was to nourish Israel amidst their missional encounter with the pagan nations. The temple plays a huge role in this purpose and the prophets are seen as Israel's 'covenant enforcers' keeping them on track (p. 59). Third, the story of Israel in the OT closes with them as a dispersed people. Fortunately, because of God's covenant faithfulness He promised through the prophets (Isa. 60 & Eze. 36:24-27) that He would return and restore them.
The Coming of Jesus to Restore the People of God
Goheen does not mince words when it comes to his assessment of the significance of Jesus' coming, "With the coming of Jesus, the promised gathering of God's eschatological people begins (p. 76)." Following the gospel of Mark, Goheen defines the kingdom of God as "the restoration of God's rule over the whole world (p. 77)." Though God rules on His own, His people are to proclaim this rulership to all the world as they carry out their missional identity.
Though there are many that believe Israel rejected the offer of the kingdom, Goheen contends that
Many within Israel do respond to the invitation of faith, and they begin to form the true eschatological Israel, the people of the kingdom, purified by judgment to take up the task of being a light to the nations….Those who respond thus become part of this community of Jesus-followers and receive the gifts and obligations of the kingdom (p. 84-85)."
Though there are no doubt many Jews who will reject the offer of the kingdom and the call to restoration, there is a remnant that accepts and thus becomes the beginning of the eschatological fulfillment of the people of God – the light to the nations.
It is Jesus' work on the cross and resurrection that become the defining works of Jesus that enable Him to restore Israel and give them the power to carry out their missional task. It is through the cross that Jesus takes on the punishment of Israel's sin, thus freeing them from it. "The death of Jesus creates a restored community, reinstated in it vocation as a channel of salvation to the nations. The cross is an event that creates a redeemed and transformed people (p. 107)." As for the resurrection it "marks the restoration of God's people to new life as part of a new creation (p. 112)." Of this new creation Jesus is the 'first fruits', the 'first born' and the 'beginning.' It is at the close of the Gospels that we see Jesus giving restored Israel (the church) its new identity through the great Commission (Matt. 28:19-20). The church is to take the gospel to all the nations. The church is the new Israel and thus the light to the nations as Israel was in the OT.
The question for many is how do the NT writers perceive and describe the church as the reconstituted people of God – the restored Israel?
The NT Church as the Reconstituted People of God
For Goheen the clearest NT example of how the church (reconstituted Israel) continues the mission of God is to read the book of Acts. Beginning with Pentecost (Acts 2) and running through the end of the book we see God's people spreading the gospel to the nations while God builds His church and kingdom through this activity. The geographical structure of Acts is huge for Goheen. "The story line of Acts is about the geographical spread of the Word (p. 129)." Jerusalem has great redemptive-historical and eschatological significance (p. 129 & 131). "God has chosen Israel to be a blessing to all nations, and the centrifugal movement in Acts marks the beginning of the process by which that blessing is to be fulfilled (p. 131)." What Goheen believes is clear from the book of Acts is that God restored many Jews and that He brought many Gentiles into the church.
So how what evidence is there that the NT writers saw the church and themselves as the reconstituted people of God? Take Peter for example. In 1 Peter 2:9-10, Peter uses no less than 5 explicit word/phrases to describe the church that are used in the OT to describe Israel. Peter uses "a chosen race," "a royal priesthood," "a holy nation," and "a people for his own possession" all to describe the church. Not only is the language telling but the historical context of I Peter. 1 Peter is written to dispersed believers. In the OT Israel was dispersed because of unbelief and disobedience. Now, reconstituted Israel is once again dispersed but not because of unbelief. Their dispersion is caused because of their belief and by command (Matt. 28:19-20). I Peter exemplifies for us "how the church can live faithfully in a non-Christian environment (p. 182)." Goheen contends that the imagery and word usage here is I Peter is just a small example of the many examples in the NT where the authors saw the church as the continuation and expansion of Israel.
A presentation of a biblical theology of mission would be incomplete without some suggestion for what this might look like today. Goheen offers thirteen suggestions. Some of the most notable are the need for the church to reach out to the world with its message. This follows along the lines of the people of God being the mediators of God's blessings to the world – namely, salvation. Along the same lines we need preaching that is more missional minded. While the ministry of the Word through preaching is primarily for believers, we need to make sure our preaching proclaims the biblical story of redemption. Perhaps the most relevant of Goheen's suggestions is the need for the church to live out as a community within its community. This is how the NT church lived mission and this is how the church today and in the future needs to live out its mission.
A Light to the Nations is a great corrective to much of the missional talk of the day. It puts the meat on the bones of some weak theology of mission that too many have today. The greatest strength of the book is its truly biblical theology approach as it begins with the concept as originated with Israel and Abraham. For those who see more discontinuity within Scripture in regards to Israel and the church this book will be a much needed dose of corrective medicine. It is perhaps not a stretch to say that, a rejection of Goheen's biblical theology of mission is a rejection of the Scripture's concept of mission.
NOTE: I received this book for free and was under no obligation to provide a favorable review.

Quietly calm. Trust.
The youngling cradled in warmth,
A tender moment.
In June of this year, when my co-worker, Ryan, and I were busy weeding in the garden, we met a wee little, feathered friend.
During a brief break, Ryan happened to look in the direction of a nearby tree and noticed something had fallen. He disappeared for a few moments and then returned with this little one gently cupped in his hands, and both he and I spent a few moments just appreciating one of nature's creatures – I'm thinking perhaps a robin fledgling? – We guessed that perhaps it had fallen from the tree in an effort to learn flying from the nest and trying out the new feather growth.
It seemed not to mind us; quite content to just rest.
Ryan then went back to the tree and let it go.
That lovely encounter completely made our day!

BERLIN (AFP) - A 90th-minute Robert Lewandowski goal saw 10-man league leaders Bayern Munich earn a dramatic 2-1 win at Hoffenheim on Saturday after conceding the joint fastest goal in Bundesliga history.
The Poland striker sealed the champions comeback after Germany Under-21 striker Kevin Volland had opened the scoring with just nine seconds gone, darting onto David Alaba's loose pass and drilling his shot home at the Rhein-Neckar-Arena.
Volland's goal equalled the previous record set by Bayer Leverkusen's Karim Bellarabi on the opening day of last season at Borussia Dortmund.
Bayern equalised when a Douglas Costa shot rocketed off the hands of Hoffenheim goalkeeper Oliver Baumann and Thomas Mueller jabbed home the rebound with his knee on 40 minutes.
Hoffenheim wasted the chance to claim an historic first win over Bayern at the 15th attempt when Eugen Polanski blasted his penalty attempt off the post after Jerome Boateng's handball saw the Germany international sent off for a second yellow card on 72 minutes.
Bayern claimed the dramatic winner when Brazil winger Costa fired in a superb cross, Mario Goetze let the ball roll and Lewandowski drilled home his shot to keep Bayern top of the table having routed Hamburg 5-0 on the opening weekend.
Bayer Leverkusen are second after a 1-0 win at Hanover to also leave them with two wins from two matches.
Dead-ball specialist Hakan Calhanoglu's 18th-minute free-kick sealed the win to give Leverkusen a boost before Wednesday's Champions League play-off qualifier, second-leg, at home to Lazio who they trail 1-0 after the first leg.
Belgian attacking midfielder Kevin de Bruyne started what could be his last match for last season's runners-up VfL Wolfsburg in a 1-1 draw with Cologne.
The 24-year-old, despite having said earlier in the week he would be staying with Wolfsburg for this season, is reported to have agreed terms with Manchester City and will earn £200,000 (S$440,000) a week in the Premier League, if his present club accept City's improved offer of £55 million.
Hosts Cologne took the lead when striker Simon Zoller lobbed Wolfsburg goalkeeper Koen Casteels on the half hour mark.
But Wolfsburg, who are fifth, equalised when ex-Arsenal and Juventus striker Nicklas Bendtner tapped home a Daniel Caliguri cross at the far post on 83 minutes to ensure they shared the points.
Schalke, who routed Bremen 3-0 on the opening weekend of the season, are third in the table after their 1-1 draw at newly-promoted Darmstadt.
The Royal Blues fell behind after 18 minutes when midfielder Konstantin Rausch slotted his shot into the top right-hand corner from outside the area.
Germany international Julian Draxler, who has been linked to a move to Italian champions Juventus, equalised for Schalke when the left winger fired home on 47 minutes after converting Franco di Santo's pass.
Hertha Berlin had briefly led the table on Friday night after their 1-1 draw at home to Werder Bremen when Valentin Stocker's goal was cancelled out by Anthony Ujah's equaliser.

Here is more proof that best things come in small packages. Instead of cooking up large batches of food to satiate her appetite, Chennai-based Rupashree Adam has been creating miniature dishes of her favourite things to eat.
Adam, who has just graduated from college, said she was inspired by the stylish displays of food at both, high end and local eateries. "I was wondering if I could make big look small," she told HuffPost India.
Though her artwork is not edible, it's realistic enough to make anyone salivate. "I spent a lot of time researching what material would be best to use for an almost real look," she says, adding that the tiny dishes are made out of polymer clay which is a bake-able material. "I made the first two items after much trial and error. The realistic effect was achieved only by using a proper mix of clay, right baking temperatures and time, and careful shading. Needless to say, it required a lot of patience!" Adam says.
Each element takes Adams at least 3-4 hours to create, and requires an almost obsessive watch when being baked. "If my oven is too hot, or if I don't monitor the time to the last minute, these tiny things get burnt very easily – a total waste of my four hours of work," she says.
Adams, who creates appetizers, main course entrees and desserts, says that south Indian dishes are particularly hard to craft, especially when compared to their continental counterparts. "This is because of the various items that are present in an Indian meal," she explains.
For those who'd like to try their hand at this wee hobby, Adam plans on releasing a video that reveals the process behind her work. She will also be putting these tiny items up for sale in a month or two. She can also be followed on her Facebook page or her website, (quite aptly) called charmingminiatures.com.

Imagine some large multidimensional dataset; one of the things you might wish to do is to find outliers, and more generally, say something statistically-defined about the structure of clusters of points within that space. One of my favorite techniques for doing that is to use directional quantile envelopes, developed and implemented by Anton Antonov and described here and here. In that post, Antonov considers a set of uniformly distributed directions and constructs the lines (or planes) that separate the points into quantiles; if you consider enough directions, and do this a few times, you are left with lines (or planes) that define a curve (or surface) that envelops some quantile q of your data. The figures show a cloud of points with some interesting structure and the surface for q = 0.7, with and without the data.
Beyond general data analytics, the directional quantile envelope approach has at least one more application, which is in image processing and segmentation. Imagine taking a picture of a locally smooth blob-like object in the presence of various (complicated) artifacts and noise. You could throw the usual approaches at this problem (gradient filter, distance transform, morphological operations, watershed, …), but in many of those approaches you end up having to empirically play with dozens of parameters until things "look nice", which is unsettling. What you would really like to do is to detect/localize/reconstruct the emitting object in a statistically-defined, principled manner, and this is what Directional Quantile Envelopes allow you to do.
With a quantile envelope, you can compactly communicate what you did to the raw imaging data to get some final picture of a cell or organoid, rather than reporting an inscrutable succession of filters, convolutions, and adaptive nonlinear thesholding steps. The figure shows a cell nucleus imaged with a confocal microscope; in reality, the cell nucleus is quite smooth, but various imaging artifacts result in the appearance of "ears", which can be detected as outliers via directional quantile envelopes.

Here is an example of what computer inventory will look like for this issue (other examples are below):
This issue is actually caused by a WMI call in Windows XP or Server 2003 that returns incorrect information with regards to processor type. Since the KBOX uses WMI for inventory, it too will have incorrect information.
In XP or Server 2003, you can show this by running this from a command prompt:
- Run the self-extracting executable to get to the patch installer. (Note: you can get the install switches available by running "windowsxp-kb953955-x86-enu.exe /help" in a command prompt.)
- Install the patch on a test system, then force an inventory update.
- Find "Hotfix for Windows XP (KB953955)" in your software inventory and upload the executable to it as an associated file. (Please note: It shows up under Windows>Type>Patch Software)
- Select the supported operating systems (Win XP in this case, others available at the MS links above) and click Save on the software inventory item.
- Create a new managed install (Distribution>Choose Action>Add New Item).
- Select "Hotfix for Windows XP (KB953955)" as your software title.
- Select "Configure Manually" under Installation Command. Also check the box for "Don't Prepend msiexec.exe".
- Your install string to install this patch silently will be: windowsxp-kb953955-x86-enu.exe /quiet
- Set the managed action to the option that works best in your environment.
- Select the machines you wish to deploy to.
- Save the MI and run it.
Examples are:

Today was the big day. A return to the doc I saw for my MCL tear/sprain a few years ago. (Actually in 2003, a long time ago!)
Seems fitting that my parents met me there today, considering they went with me on the first trip. They had to. I could hardly walk, and they still lived here. So they met me, just to meet me and see me. And sat in the waiting room.
Have I mentioned that I hate not having my parents here? Yes? Well, it's a recurring theme, so get used to it.
Anyhow, remember how I was complaining about my knee more often to the point that I had such pain that I made the appointment? Yeah, the dang thing hasn't hurt but a tiny bit since then. Seriously. The day I made the appointment, I was in terrible pain. Even just sitting and doing nothing – forget walking or moving.
And now? NOTHING. Doc poked, prodded, twisted, pushed, pulled – everything he could do. And got one tiny pain response from me. From an area where I've never really had pain. (Well below my knee, 3 inches or so, on the interior of my right leg… huh?)
WTH???? I'd like a little consistency here, stupid knee pain. This isn't all fun & games, yo.
So, the Doc is stumped, as am I. He's leaning towards meniscus tear, which is pretty much what I diagnosed myself with. Xrays showed nothing (I could've told them that).
So now I have an MRI on Monday. Then another appointment with the same Doc a week or so later. And then we'll see if there is something wrong or if my knee is just trying to make me think I truly am crazy.
Other news…. Spending the whole day Saturday with The Nana & The GrandPa. I. Can't. Wait.
Someone at work today said they've never seen such a big smile on my face nor me so happy. Guaranteed it's due to my parents being here and the fact that I booked my next three Florida trips…
So glad I didn't campaign for Little C to be a Bucco fan… As of now, with the Pirates trading away everyone, she will never be allowed to be a Pirates fan. I'm so glad NE is a Red Sox fan right now. Geez. Thankfully, we still have football and hockey seasons that are competitive between the two teams we all like to help Little C figure out how to be a super sports fan!!
And… Only 42 more days till I get to see my Little C again. *Swoon* 42 days. I can wait that long. I hope. I miss her so much. (I also miss Lili and NE – don't be fooled. I want all of my family within a few hours drive max…) I know the second I see her & hold her again, all will be right in the world again for another month or so… *sigh*
