Do you remember that Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks film 'You've got Mail'? She ran a charming little independent book store and he was the big mean chain giant threatening to crush her livelihood. Well I've found a book shop that makes me think about her charming little independent. It's called Whyte Books in a place called Schull in West Cork, thankfully there ain't no chance of a giant chain anything moving into the High St there. You can drive through this High St in a blink, and it would be such a shame if you did because you would miss so much. If you know West Cork then you know what I'm talking about. Schull may be small but it's jam-packed. There's my favourite kind of 'pokey shops' full of lovely gifts and treats, art shops full of beautiful pieces by local artists, knitwear and linen shops and of course at least three pubs, it is Ireland after all. The wonderful thing about this place is that the shop keepers know their customers, they know their stock. There's no 'oh hang on I'll go and ask somebody' or 'um…I've only just started here I don't know'.
On one of our last visits we needed to find a high chair for my toddler to use in the cottage. When we asked in the clothing shop where we could get one the shopkeeper called her husband and got him to bring down their very own for us to borrow for the week! Now that's service. It's the kind of community you want to be a part of.
Whyte Books is particularly charming, they have a wonderful selection of books and you are very welcome to come sit and read while having a coffee and an amazing slice of homemade cakey wonderfulness and soak up the knowledge or adventures on the pages.
This visit I just had to get the recipe for the mouth-watering Lemon Drizzle Cake that I have every time I'm there. I was worried they wouldn't share but when I asked, after the obligatory 'I'll tell you but then I'll have to kill you', Sheila reeled the recipe off the top of her head. I scrabbled for my iPhone and made her tell me again. What I love about this recipe is that it happens to be 'Gluten Free'. That means it's actually good for you, right?… Right?!
Using a metal spoon fold in the flour, baking powder & ground almonds. Grate lemon zest into the bowl ( I used the zest of the whole lemon). Mix together.
Pour mixture into a loaf tin and bake for 50 minutes at 160 degrees.
While the cake is baking make your drizzle. I was told to use my own judgement for this bit!
Squeeze the juice from the lemon and pour into a bowl, and then simply add icing sugar. If you like it very sweet then add lots of icing sugar if you prefer a tangy hit from the lemon use a little less.
Leave to cool before turning it out to let all the juice soak in.
Serve with a dollop of sour cream, don't leave this bit out it's incredible!
Go on, try it you'll be blown away. It's the perfect summer cake.
Don't forget that if you are ever making your way around the West Coast of Ireland make sure to head to Schull and Whyte Books.

Senseless Destruction
Senseless Destruction is the second scenario of the The World Tree campaign in Heroes Chronicles .
The Necromancers no longer fought amongst themselves. United, they continued their senseless destruction of the subterranean world. Wherever they tread, they left nothing but scorched earth and rotting corpses.
Tarnum must defeat all of the Necromancers in the area. If Tarnum loses a battle the entire campaign will be lost. All Heroes will be restricted to level twelve, but Tarnum and two of his best Heroes will transfer to the next scenario.
Receive 3000 Gold
Give 20 Wolf Raiders to Tarnum
The Necromancers have unified under the Red Banner. Whatever disagreement had them at each other's throats before has obviously been settled, so I expect them to be a tougher opponent in the future.
They have also had the time to fortify these caverns. Garrisons block several of the narrow tunnels.
Since we entered these deeper tunnels, my men have had several encounters with Orcs and Goblins from a tribe we don't recognize. In all cases, my men were attacked without question.
As if battling the Necromancers wasn't tough enough, now I have to worry about these Barbarians as well. I have given orders for my men to defend themselves when they are attacked, but to attempt to communicate with these strangers whenever possible.
We surprised a small band of Orcs this morning. They were camped in a narrow portion of the tunnels, hoping to ambush all who pass. My force turned out to be much larger than they expected.
"Surrender!" I said. "There's no need to spill the blood of your own kind."
"You're not our kind! We are the Followers of Vorr, and blood is exactly what He wants!" shouted one of the Orcs.
The fools attacked even though victory was impossible. I admit, they died gloriously but it seems such a waste for these brave soldiers to throw away their lives.
Fighting the Necromancers is easy compared to doing battle with other Barbarians. We now know that another tribe calling themselves the Followers of Vorr has joined forces with the Necromancers, and although they are our enemy it still feels wrong to kill our own kind.
I released a few Orc prisoners we caught a couple days ago so they can bring a message to their king, but as soon as I cut their bonds they tried to strangle me to death.
Since the Orc messengers were a failure, I sent a letter to the shaman asking them who this Vorr is.
To my shock, Vorr is not a Barbarian chief as I suspected, but an Ancestor!
How could this be? How could one of the Ancestors be behind all this trouble?
One of the wisest shaman, an old man named Addar, brought this terrible news. Unfortunately, he couldn't explain why Vorr has teamed with the Necromancers to destroy the World Tree, but he could tell me a little about Vorr's rise to power.
In all the years I have dealt with the Ancestors as the Immortal Hero, I never heard the name Vorr.
I said, "I have never heard the Ancestors called by name. They have always been, collectively, the Ancestors, have they not?"
"True, but recently a brutal tribe of Barbarians from a land called Krewlod have turned one of their ancient kings into a war god, and they make sacrifices to him. They felt they needed a perfect leader to inspire them to greatness once again. Apparently, one of the Ancestors accepted this worship, drew power from it, and took on the form of this war god. He even gave himself a name - Vorr," said Addar.
Krewlod was a familiar name. It was the new name given to my homeland. Could this ancient Barbarian King have been me? Could my people be modeling their brutality after my own actions?
I dismissed the shaman, unable to continue this conversation right now.
I rode up next to Addar this morning, finally prepared to face the truth of Vorr's origins.
"Shaman, tell me more about Vorr," I said.
"Well, in all the stories that I know, there is only one other Vorr - a warrior who lived in the early days of our people. With an axe in his hand, there was no force that could stand in his way. He had the strength of thirty men, and whenever he commanded an army victory was certain. Vorr also enjoyed the adoration of his people - perhaps too much.
"For years they praised him and gave him their love, until one year they grew bored. They turned their interests toward a young man who could run and swim faster and farther than any other. Vorr grew angry and jealous and challenged this young man to a race around the world. Granted, Vorr was very strong, but his power was on the battlefield. For a year and a day the two raced around the world, shoulder-to-shoulder the entire way until..."
"What?" I said.
"Just before they reached the finish line, the young runner pulled out in front. Vorr knew he had lost, so, he pulled out his axe and lopped off the young man's head right in front of everyone. A shameful end."
"What happened to Vorr?"
"He tried to win back his people's love by forcing them. He conquered them and became a much unloved king. He died bitter and old, and in his bed."
I didn't see how this Vorr could possibly be one of the Ancestors. Perhaps the name is a coincidence.
I try not to let my troops see the doubt I feel inside.
I can battle Necromancers, even Barbarians if I have too, but an Ancestor? I know that one day I will probably have to face Vorr in battle, and when that day comes I will lift my sword and accept whatever may come.
Can I defeat an Ancestor in battle? I don't think so. But perhaps I can stop Vorr from destroying the World Tree.
The Necromancers have an inexhaustible source of troops as long as their cursed magic can raise their own troops from the dead. I'm finding it difficult to keep up, so I've sent word to the surface asking for volunteers. Hopefully, they won't respond too late.
My luck is holding! I received word that new volunteers have stepped forward to battle our enemy. Hopefully, these fresh troops will send the Necromancers running.

COLUMBIA, SC – South Carolina won five of the six singles matches as the 51st-ranked Gamecocks defeated 33rd-ranked Clemson 5-2 in a men's intercollegiate tennis match Wednesday afternoon at Columbia, SC. South Carolina improves its record to 5-3 overall, while Clemson falls to 3-6 on the season.
Clemson got off to a quick start against the Gamecocks by winning all three doubles matches and capturing the doubles point. Clemson's Josh Goffi and Marko Gojanovic, the 46th-ranked doubles team in the nation, defeated South Carolina's David Nelson and Marcus Westman 8-5 at the number-one position. At number-two doubles, Darren Knight and Eric Cohn of Clemson defeated South Carolina's pair of Guilluame Legat and Seth Rose 9-8. The win was the eighth in a row for the team of Knight and Cohn and improved their doubles record to 8-1 on the season. True freshman Lee Taylor Walker and sophomore Micah Thompson of Clemson defeated Rodrigo Pacheco and Carl Wermee of South Carolina 8-4 in the number-three doubles slot.
In singles, the 62nd-ranked Legat upset 34th-ranked Goffi of Clemson in straight sets 6-1, 6-3. Brad Emendorfer, while playing number-four singles, picked up the lone singles win for the Tigers by defeating the Gamecock's Wermee 7-5, 6-3. The win marked the third singles win in a row for Emendorfer.
Clemson's next action will be on March 13 as the Tigers play host to eighth-ranked Georgia at 2:30 PM at the Hoke Sloan Tennis Center.

Well, it's almost time to head out for the afternoon kid pickup. Lol. :D No, seriously, I'm looking forward to picking my daughter up today. She went on her first excursion to Sydney Wildlife World in Darling Harbour.
It's the first time we've let her go on an excursion where she actually left the suburb, so I was a little nervous at first. But she's growing up so quick and there'll be so many other excursions to come, I think it's best to get used to it now.
You know what's really cool though? Having a little buddy around the house while I'm writing. He loves falling asleep beside me. He's so darn adorable! And he knows how to use the litter box. That's fantastic!
Okay, better get going for now.
Anyway, last night we got the grocery shopping done and even managed to lift some weights. It was really cool because I was starting to worry about how we'd fit in our workouts. Just need to get used to taking each day as it comes.
Well, I've already added another 2k to the story and am so close to finishing, I can feel it. Lol. But seriously, I don't want this one to go over 10k by much. Of course, I can always shorten it during the revision process if I have to, but still. The contest states between 2,500-10,000 words. I'm just happy with how the story is gonna come together in the end. I'm having some fun with it. Isn't fantastic when you can enjoy the tale you're writing, huh? It's certainly very cool.
Okay I better get going because my daughter will start asking for brekky soon. Unlike yesterday when I had to wake her, she woke up on her own today!
Anyway, I just stopped writing because the lappy ran out of juice. I do that all the time, drain it until there's nothing left. I ended up with a total word count of 6,108. So I'm still liking the extra hours in the morning.
The story's moving along very well, I think. Though that could just be first draft excitement. Don't you get all excited while writing a first draft? The main thing at the moment is to get the story out of my head, and so far it's getting out... Lol.
Early morning riser gets the word count happening!
So, this morning I started writing the next first draft I'm hoping to get done by the end of the week.
I've posted this Sydney Opera House pic because this tale starts near the SOH. :) Actually, it's going to feature in it quite a bit.
I got the first 2,060 words written and the sparks are already flying between the hero and heroine. Wow, I didn't expect them to get together so soon. But oh well, what are you going to do? If they want each, they want each other. Better than writing a boring tale where the two characters don't like one another. Lol. This writing thing never seizes to amaze me.
Last night we went to bed at 8:30pm and got up this morning at 4am. I didn't want to get up, which is kinda strange since I actually had a longer sleep then the night before. I'm actually (so far) enjoying this having so much extra time in the morning thing. It's definitely fantastic for boosting my daily word count. I just hope that I feel like writing every morning.
Well, the sun did pop out after the fog cleared but now it's gone all cloudy again.
Here's another Jensen pic. A Dean Winchester picture, to be exact. Lol. He looks so serious, doesn't he? Anyway, I just thought you'd all like to see some more Jensen.
I got another 7,392 words added to the story today. Wow, that extra time this morning really helped! And so did having a quick lunch, and ignoring the dishes. ;) So the completed word count is 13,755. Yay. That's 64 pages.
The story's done and I'm really happy with it.
So that's one goal met for the week. I'm very excited about this, because more than just getting a story done I'm excited that it's this story. It's been inside my head for so long that each word just spilled out so easily. I wish all tales would come this easy.
Now it's onto the next one, but I won't start it until tomorrow. I want the rest of the afternoon off.
My grandmother used to say that when it was foggy in the morning, the sun would come out in the afternoon. So far, from my personal experience, it's almost always right. There's only every been a few times when the fog's lifted and it's still overcast. So we'll see how it goes today.
Did I mention that the Sydney Harbour Bridge turned 75 over the weekend? Well, it did. It's an exciting thing, but we didn't go into the city for the Bridge Walk.
Well, I got up bright and early this morning. Okay, so it was early but definitely not bright. 4am to be precise. The sun started to rise about half an hour ago, but because of the fog it's still pretty dark out there. Anyway, the hubby's started a new job and he has to be there at 5am every morning, so I've decided to get up too and keep him company. It's very early, but I figured that if we start going to bed at an early time every night and I get up with him, after he leaves for work I'll have several hours before my daughter wakes up. That's extra time on the internet, or time to read a bit, even time to write.
So far this morning I've used it for two out of three. I checked my emails and cruised around a bit before grabbing lappy to write. I added another 2k, so the story's moving along just fine. I've used my time very wisely. :) I could get used to this, though it means that our workouts need to change. That's a bit of a pain, but once we get into the swing of things and set up a new routine it should be okay.
The other day we got Hinder's album - Extreme Behavior. Thanks for recommending it Samantha! I finally had enough time to put it on today, and boy it's just my kind of music. I love it. Lips of an Angel and Better than Me are especially great. ;) I know this album's going to be responsible for a bunch of ideas.
Speaking of cool songs, we also got a bunch of singles. And I absolutely love Welcome to the Black Parade by My Chemical Romance.
Love their sound, the way the music changes so many times during the one song. What about that creepy cover? Lol. This is their only song I've heard. Well, except for the other song on the single, which is also excellent. Might have to check out their album too.
The quality isn't the best, but the clip's on their MySpace page too if you want to see it properly.
The hubby showed me this last night. If you're a Spiderman fan and you're looking forward to the new movie, then check it out. There's about 7 minutes of footage, different bits. An action scene, a romantic one and a very touching one. It's worth checking out. I personally can't wait for the movie. It looks like quite a ride!
Well, today I took it easier than I have all week.
Anyway, I better get going now.
And the best thing is that so far - no thunderstorms! So it looks like the cycle has been broken. Lol.
Whoa, we were supposed to do some weights last night but were both so tired we skipped it. It's never a good idea to workout if you feel like crap. We can always catch up tonight.
The weekend's around the corner again. I'm hoping to finally get a chance to finish reading NIGHT RISING by Chris Marie Green. I've started it already and stopped in a section that I can't wait to see what happens next! It's great so far.

Last night I read the first one fourth or so of this book and I have some opinions that might be too long for Twitter. Here we go.
Does anyone else think of it as a little ironic how Harry acts at the beginning whilst he is still at the Dursley's? He spends a fair amount of time complaining about how awful they are to him, yet whenever he is around any of them, he's always discribed as "cold". I understand why, I mean, I've read the books, but Harry, being the apparently compassionate person that he is (since he's always trying to prevent everyone from sacrificing things for him and he tried to save everyone during the second task in The Goblet of Fire), is kind of a little jerk to the Dursley's.
He doesn't even TRY to be nice to them. I'm sure he sees this as pay-back for all those years that he was the underdog of the situation, but since when is revenge the right way to go? He DOES save Duddley and he DOES restrain himself for the most part, but these are his character peeking through. I understand about, when writing, you aren't supposed to make your main character perfect at the beginning so that they have room to grow by the end of the story, but this bugs me a bit.
Then, when he is reunited with Ron and Hermione, he acts like a jerk to them, which is COMPLETELY understandable, seeing as we're all human. And again, it might just be the stress that Harry is under, but I just wanted to point out this. Sometimes people make themselves miserable and blame it on other things. Feel free to defend Harry in the comments if you wish.

"(IJ Parker) has skillfully adopted the literary model of the traditional Asian crime novel in which the protagonist, a "righteous official," must investigate several puzzling cases." Read the whole review here .
(Starred Review) "Parker raises the stakes considerably for her fallible but honorable series sleuth in her excellent eighth mystery set in 11th-century Japan (after 2010's The Masuda Affair)." Read the whole review here.
"In the pantheon of mystery books, I.J. Parker's stand alone. Far from simple potboilers, her mysteries weave multiple plot threads into a lush tapestry of Japanese society in the Heian period. Her latest book, The Convict's Sword, features her detective, the judicial clerk Akitada Sugawara, trying to clear the names of two friends, even as he makes decisions about his family more serious than he ever imagined. The result is one of her best — if not the best — books yet, a complex and heady mix of suspense and Asian culture written with authority and flair." Read the whole review here.
"More than just a mystery novel, this is a superb piece of literature set against the backdrop of 11th-century Kyoto." Read the whole review here.
(Starred Review) "Parker gives her protagonist an emotional depth that raises her to the front rank of contemporary historical writers." Read the whole review here.
"You couldn't ask for a more gracious introduction to the exotic world of Imperial Japan than the stately historical novels of I. J. Parker." Read the whole review here.
(Starred Review) "The fast-moving, surprising plot and colorful writing will enthrall even those unfamiliar with the exotic setting. The Shamus Award Parker won with her first Akitada short story may soon have company." Read the whole review here.
(Starred Review) "Shamus-winner Parker's fourth historical Sugawara Akitada novel (after 2006's Rashomon Gate) deftly combines an action-packed plot with convincing period detail to bring 11th-century Japan to life."
"An elegant, oblique prologue set decades before the main action finds Death preying on a young woman and her frolicking baby in a flower-laden forest clearing. Akitada's fourth adventure, as beautifully written as his first three, keeps his wife Tamako in the background but adroitly develops his three sidekicks."
"Now comes the first Sugawara Akitada novel, a rousing, whip-fast story of political intrigue and adventure in eleventh-century Japan... told with a sure hand and a sharp sense of humor."
"Parker has created a wonderful protagonist in Akitada, who, bound by tradition, finds himself in conflict with his benevolent nature. Her ancillary characters... are as vividly drawn."
His noble family fallen on hard times, Sugawara Akitada works as a minor official in the Ministry of Justice in Heian Kyo, capital of Japan in the 11th century. The post is boring, but there are bills to pay, servants to maintain and a diminished estate to keep up as best he can. However, Akitada also has a sharp mind and an inquisitive nature, both of which get put to the test as he unravels murders and mysteries that carry him from the depths of the most common peasant hovels to the sacred halls of the Imperial Palace itself. Bound not only by his sense of decency and honor, but the strict codes and social structure of Ancient Japan, Akitada must step carefully while gathering clues to solve the puzzles before him.
I.J. PARKER won the Private Eye Writers of America Shamus Award for Best P.I. Short Story in 2000 for "Akitada's First Case," published in 1999. An Associate Professor of English and Foreign Languages (retired) at a Virginia university, Parker began research into eleventh century Japan because of a professional interest in that culture's literature. This led to the first Akitada short story, "Instruments of Murder," published in Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine. The Akitada series of mystery novels soon followed and led to foreign publication as the novels were translated into other languages. Later, Parker turned her attention to the turbulent events at the end of the twelfth century. Three novels are the result of this research: the two-volume saga THE HOLLOW REED and the action-adventure THE SWORD MASTER. Finally, there is also a literary novel, THE LEFT-HANDED GOD, set in eighteenth century Germany, a special labor of love.

My son was diagnosed with acute lymphatic leukemia on Friday, August 13, 2004. He was nine years old. He received 2 1/2 years of chemotherapy. He was incredibly strong. He spoke the words "failure is not on option", a brave and encouraging statement for a child so young. He ran, did push-ups and pull ups all through treatment. He joined his middle school track team to stay in shape. His first love is motocross, but while in middle school his P.E. coach shared lacrosse with him. He joined a pick up league last year and hopes to make the high school team this fall. It is a sport that persistence and patience both characteristics needed to battle a life threatening illness. I am grateful he enjoys playing!!!
Treatment was difficult but Kyle was always able to put things in perspective. He was always concerned for others. On several occasions he stated that other kids had it much worse. He did what was needed in order to put it behind him and keep living. He is HEADstrong and it helped him survive.
I think he has learned to be strong no matter what you face in life. I think he knows things can always be worse and most importantly he knows how to live life to the fullest.
Kyle is great. We see the oncologist every 4 months and each visit continues to bring good news.
We first heard it mentioned at a lacrosse training we attended and then most recently in Lacrosse magazine.
As a parent of cancer patient, I just want to say thanks. Cancer is not something you ever expect to hear about your child. I am grateful that there are more and more organizations willing to support the cause. Cancer treatment takes a toll emotionally, physically and financially. Every time our family views new means of support it gives you hope for the future.

Well where do I start – Earlier this year I had organized another far North trip for Pea and I, I had my new 550 Senator and the plan was to head North for labor weekend to chase Kings. We had booked two days off before labors which would give us a 5 day window to fish, I have been fishing the far North for over 20yrs now and our number one spot to stay at is the top 10 holiday park in Whatuwhiwhi.
Staying here allows you to just about fish in any weather the Gods can throw at you, it doesn't matter to much what way the wind is as there are multiple places you can launch from with in 10mins of each other to get a line wet and most times you will still land solid fish even in double figures – You can even venture to the West Coast if the weather allows.
Leaving straight after work on the Wednesday Pea and I left Auckland but not with my new Senator in tow but a friends small 380 Senator, I had sold my boat to move into a new 550C Osprey so we dropped back to the little tin. If there is one thing I love to do and that is to chase big fish in the 12ft tin, knowing we had options of where to fish weather permitting we weren't to worried we didn't have the big boat. Most of my spots I have fished over the years are in easy reach with a small boat and as stated before no matter where the wind comes from we should be able to find some solid fish….
Friday the wind dropped a bit so we headed out off the bay in the middle of Doubtless Bay, there were a couple of long line boats working and we could see they were pulling some nice fish. We anchored up in around 20mtrs of water – we had been moving around most of the morning with little to show but our first few baits were quickly gobbled up by a few small Snaps around the 40cm, we had brought along a couple of big Burls so we deployed them to see if we could get some bigger mods turning up. Each bait started getting hit and after a good hour all hell was breaking lose, Snapper after Snapper was coming up they were also getting bigger and bigger. We had dropped the Burley half way and this was bring the fish up off the bottom and our baits were getting smashed as we were letting our baits down – The arvo was an epic Snapper Sesh and in the middle of all the action I pulled a healthy Porai and Pea pulled a few big Terakihi and Blue cod which was distend for home.
Saturday was looking like a white wash the rain had set in and the wind was up, we took a ride into Monganui to kill some time and on our return looking out just off the Bay there were Gannets working – The rain was coming down but even though the wind was up, it was off shore and the Gannets were working close. Pea said bugger that (Not as keen as me) so I quickly sorted out the boat and with in 5mins I was towing my lure in the work ups, it was so quick the rod buckled over and I was into my first King with in seconds. I got it boated as soon as I could – being a solo mish I was having to do it all – reverse the boat, chase the fish film it and then land it…What a great fish, it was solid and went 105cm – I quickly unhooked it slipped back into the water and got my lure back in, the birds had moved off while my 10min battle was going on but once again with in sec's of setting it back into the rod holder away it went again…What a magic morning I had in the rain fighting King fish all by my self, I ended up catching 6 all 100-110cm – all went back apart for one that was destined for the Smoker of the boat owner….


It's crazy, it's just 4 weeks till Christmas! I love to see on Instagram all those beautiful snowy photos, there's little chance that we'll get some snow in Ireland, even if some mornings temperature have dropped. Maybe that's the reason why I don't have yet that festive feeling and I haven't done all Christmas gift shopping. Well I have been very busy working on Strike a Pose Jewelry pieces and attending Craft Fairs so it's all about lack of time. I wish I had bigger budget to get to my girlies gorgeous designer bags and fabulous holidays, but even little something is lovely to receive and give. I think accessories is always good idea, they usually can be found at a good price and there's never such a thing as too much accessories. Winter is long so hats, scarfs, glows and mittens are always good to have to play creating different looks. There are so many beauty products, that we wouldn't have enough our lifetime to buy and try them all, so get it as a gift helps to explore and find new favorites. Books, may they be some pretty coffee table or good entertainment they all great. I think this year there have been lots of buzz about coloring in books. Why not to get some fashion. Hope I helped you , even just a little bit. Have great Holiday gift shopping!
That little hat with ears is so cute :) Great post!
I absolutely adore that cat hat - so cute!
Super cool! Have a nice day, dear!
Firmoo giveaway winner on my last post HERE!
I cannot believe Christmas is so close!! Great gift guide.
That is a cute beanie.
Very nice list of gifts that could be given to someone! Really like that pair of gloves! They look so sweet!
Someone gift me no.7! Love the list!
These are all such pretty, girly picks! I love the coloring book and those dainty gray gloves. I can't believe tomorrow is DECEMBER! Crazy.
Dear Ramona, yes, it is indeed unbelievable we will have in 4 weeks Christmas! Hopefully your wish comes true and you will have snow in Ireland. Here in Bavaria we had already pretty much snow but I see the snow melts at the moment ... Thanks for your wonderful picks and enjoy the first week of Advent.


This would be best with slightly stale substantial bread I think, but it came out great with some not stale whole grain white bread too. If you like rice pudding, you'll probably like this. It's the same basic custard cooked with bread instead of rice. Some folks remove the crusts on the bread for stuff like that. I take it as an opportunity to turn the ends of the bread, which are often not the favorites for sandwiches, into something everyone will happily eat.
Preheat oven to 350. Put a kettle of water on to boil.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, and salt.
In a small saucepan, heat the milk until scalded (just below the boiling point). You'll see bubbles forming around the edge. Remove the pan from the heat and slowly pour the egg mixture in, whisking all the while. Stir in the vanilla and raisins.
Place the bread, buttered side up, in a 9x9 pan, just fitting in a few layers as evenly as possible. Pour the milk and egg mixture over the bread.
Fill a 9x13 pan (or something else that will hold your 9x9 pan) half full with boiling water. It's easier to slide your oven rack out, put the larger pan on the rack, put the pan with the bread pudding in it in the larger pan, then pour the boiling water in the outer pan so that it comes up to the halfway point of the smaller pan. Slide your rack carefully back into your oven. Close the door and bake for 30 minutes or so, until the custard is set.

What Legal Leaders Are Saying
[It's] a well-written, thoughtful book about how to flourish in a paralegal career. Zona-Mendola shares practical suggestions and wise life lessons alike, creating what I would have not thought possible: an entertaining and educational book for paralegals at all levels of experience.
— Rick Friedman, past president of the Inner Circle of Advocates and coauthor of Rules of the Road: A Plaintiff's Guide to Proving Liability
This book is definitely something needed in this world. A book which breaks down what goes through the life of a career paralegal and what is needed to succeed and survive in a profession which is often mistaken as a regular day job. Whether you are a person with little or no experience as a paralegal or someone who has been doing it for a long time, you can appreciate this book.
— Gerard Maglasang, paralegal at at the New Jersey office of Seeger Weiss, LLP
Candess is an extremely knowledgeable paralegal. She understands the stress of the job, especially during trial, and is always there to assist other teams if needed. She is dedicated, bright, and always finds a way to encourage others to dig a little deeper, rest, replenish their minds, and go back to the assignment at 110 percent. [Her] book brings the true role of a paralegal to light. Our day-to-day job is more than just following a docket or printing out documents. It's a dedicated craft that takes patience, fortitude, motivation, and a widening skill set to master. Enjoy the read as you begin your quest to become a top-tier paralegal (like Candess)!
— Scott Siegel, paralegal manager at the New York office of Seeger Weiss, LLP
I wish I had had this twenty-two years ago when I first stepped into the legal field. This would have prepared me for all the big and little things I had to face and figure out alone. [It's]an empowering guide, full of important, need-to-know information. For those of us who want to enhance our skill set to become a 'indispensable paralegal,' this is a must-read book… READ IT! Keep it at the corner of your desk, as one can learn various tricks of the trade from Candess Zona-Mendola.
— Denise G. Ramirez, trial/mass tort paralegal at the Heard Law Firm, PLLC
We finally have a great book for the real forces of nature in the practice of law—paralegals. This book is a must-read for paralegals. It probably wouldn't hurt for lawyers to read it as well.
— Charla Aldous, has over 250 jury trials under her belt with over $1 billion in verdicts, member of the Inner Circle of Advocates, six time Plaintiff's Lawyer of the Year, and champion to the injured who did it all while raising four incredible kids

A case is only as good as the evidence developed in the pre-suit and litigation process. With this book, paralegals, new and old, can hone their skills in getting a case ready for trial.
— Mark Kosieradzki, author of 30(b)(6): Deposing Corporations, Organizations & the Government
Real paralegals are worth their weight in platinum. But not if you or the attorney you work for thinks of paralegals as secretaries or clerks or coffee automatons—or anything less than skilled, knowledgeable, 100 percent reliable colleagues. Many an attorney wastes their paralegal by ignoring their true potential. Too many paralegals think of themselves as subordinate assistants, and settle into the dreary career of everything that title implies. Candess Zona-Mendola is the remedy. She teaches what paralegals can and should be, and how to get there. I've been in many trial-prep strategy meetings where the paralegal was little more than a note-taker, fact-reminder, or custodian of the snack tray. But I also know many great paralegals are working with attorneys who know their value—not as underlings but as skilled, wise colleagues. Start yourself on that path—lawyers on the path of realizing the value a great paralegal (if you'd just let 'em and encourage 'em). For paralegals, would-be paralegals, and attorneys, this book is a great first and giant step in the right direction. A paralegal who does not know how to strive to be great is like a lion who thinks he's a poodle.
— David Ball, author of David Ball on Damages
There are many secrets to winning big verdicts. Here's one of the most important ones: A great paralegal is more important than a lawyer. Behind every great trial lawyer, there is an equally great paralegal. Really good paralegals make us shine. No one wins big verdicts alone. They help us do our best work. Candess understands what it means to be a great paralegal. She lives and breathes it. Her book can help you become a great paralegal, too.
— Lisa Blue, one of the most influential lawyers in America, has won more than $350 million in record-setting verdicts for her clients. A trial lawyer, philanthropist, and mother of five, Lisa has written five books, four are on jury selection.
Zona-Mendola captures the essence of what it's really like to work as a paralegal and provides a road map for how to perform at the highest level. Brilliant and much needed.
— Theresa Bowen Hatch, coauthor of Trial by Woman
Finally, a publication that really provides practical insight for elevating your paralegal skills from good to great!
— Amanda Pierson, associate at Stilwell Trial Law
Candess is truly "worth any four lawyers." I have very real experience of being part of her trial team twice. And both times, I have witnessed her pulling everyone's weight, plus fresh baby paralegals with little to no trial experiences. Without a great paralegal, every hour of trial is constant struggle. This is truly one of the best knowledge books on being a paralegal and working in the legal field. Nothing can really express or capture what an amazing superwoman Candess is. She has every one of her colleagues' utmost respect.

Former Galloway Police Officer Pled Guilty to Aggravated Assault on a Woman
Raymond Glick
MAYS LANDING – A former Galloway Township Police Officer pled guilty to aggravated assault yesterday in connection to the assault in March of the woman with whom he had a domestic relationship, Atlantic County Prosecutor Jim McClain announced.
On Tuesday, October 27, 2015, Raymond Glick, 54, of the 100 block of West Liebig Street, Galloway Township, waived presentation of the case to grand jury and pled guilty to the accusation of aggravated assault—a 3rd degree crime.
On March 20, 2015, Galloway Township Police responded to the AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center—City Division, for a report that a woman was being treated for injuries received as a victim of domestic violence. The victim's injuries included multiple fractures of facial bones that would require surgery.
The investigation determined that Glick had assaulted the victim two weeks earlier, on March 4, 2015, inside the home in which they cohabited, striking the victim with open hands and closed fists and causing serious bodily injury. Glick subsequently surrendered to Galloway Township Police on the charge of aggravated assault issued by Municipal Court Judge William Cappuccio, and was served a temporary restraining order, prohibiting contact with the victim.
Yesterday morning, Glick waived presentation of the case to a Grand Jury and pled guilty to the accusation before Atlantic County Superior Court Judge Bernard DeLury. In accordance with a negotiated plea agreement, Glick:
1. pled guilty to one count of 3rd degree Aggravated Assault;
2. agreed to serve 220 days of incarceration in the Atlantic County Justice Facility as a condition of a term of probation;
3. forfeited future public employment at Galloway Township;
4. and forfeited his firearms and New Jersey Firearms I.D. Card, without which he cannot purchase firearms in the future.
The length of probation to be set at sentencing—scheduled by Judge DeLury for December 3, 2015 at 9:00 a.m.—is between 1 and 5 years.
Assistant Prosecutor Harlee Stein represents the State in the case.
Anyone with information involving serious crimes is asked to call the Atlantic County Prosecutor's Office at 609-909-7800 or go to the Prosecutor's Office Web site at http://www.acpo.org/tips.html and provide information by filling out the form anonymously on the Submit a Tip page.

Checks for Gallace of Guardavalle, from the Ndrangheta family to a multinational pharmaceutical company
By Callie Jensen 9 months ago
Direct contacts with Colombian drugs and cocaine rivers for more than 1,200 kilograms at one time for distribution in Australia, New Zealand, Turkey, the United Kingdom and Slovenia. New details emerge from the "Molo 13" investigation, which this morning led to the arrest of 23 people between Calabria and Tuscany. He was the mastermind of international drug trafficking in Guardavalle, on the Ionian side of Catanzaro, and according to investigations coordinated by the Anti-Mafia Directorate of Catanzaro and commissioned to Guardia di Finanza, Gallace di Guardavalle was managing an impressive turnover. The investigators have identified all components of the organization involved – each with a specific role – in what is considered to be a hinge link structure dedicated to the international cocaine trafficking.
From the Ndrangheta family to a criminal enterprise
The process is called Pier 13, cIt marks the conclusion of a complex investigative activity conducted by the special departments of Gico di Catanzaro and the Scico of the Guardia di Finanza of Rome in coordination with the Prosecutor led by Nicola Gratteri, and sheds light on the framework of a dangerous circumstance against the main exponents of the Ndrangheta clan rooted in the Gardaval lands and attributed to the family Gallas, which has created a complex transactional criminal organization with the aim of facilitating the formation of a Ndrangheta-style association, has remarkable international operating features, capable of planning large cocaine imports from South America (Colombia, as well as Brazil) and "placing" it in Europe (Spain, the Netherlands, England, and Slovenia) And New Zealand and Australia. The role of Gallace, which has transformed from a simple Ndrangheta family over the years into a criminal enterprise has emerged through numerous illegal activities that have made it possible to increase military and economic power and gain increased control over Ionic territory, a sector that stretches across the provinces of Catanzaro and Reggio Calabria, with branches in The hinterland of Lazio, Tuscan and Lombard.
READ What is an ESTA and why?
Encrypted messages and cocaine confiscation
The investigations, which benefited from the contribution of some collaborators with justice, framed the association's criminal link in international drug trafficking, highlighting its ability to communicate directly with South American suppliers to purchase large quantities of drugs. Systematic use, for illegal trade, of unconventional methods of communication, with electronic devices, linked to foreign sim networks, and which use encrypted messaging techniques between "accounts" and "domains" associated with a server located in San Jose (Costa Rica). In this regard, after the Dutch authorities seized data encrypted with an unconventional technology, called PGP, extrapolated from this server, with the precious cooperation of the Italian representative on duty at Eurojust, it was possible to use an enormous number of e-mail messages, especially in the Italian language, transmitted from BlackBerry devices, with PGP encryption. By decoding messages by Scico and the Catanzaro Economic and Financial Police unit of Guardia di Finanza, it was possible to extract important information about the way the organization operated, identify partners and rebuild many circles of trade and import of narcotic substances, including importing stock that increases its weight About 150 kilograms of cocaine was seized in May 2017 in the port of Livorno, which made it possible for the mutual talks between the parties concerned to uncover the purchase of about 200 kilograms of cocaine from Colombia, transported inside a container on a ship leaving from the port of Cartagena (Colombia) , An attempt was made to retrieve it, initially planned in Barcelona (Spain), with negative results in Livorno. The seized drugs as a whole, once processed and put on the market, would have earned the organization more than 3.5 million euros on the market.

The following is a comment storm that blew out of a seemingly innocent status message I posted on Facebook. It got a few of us thinking, and I think the thinking in it, on all sides, is interesting.
Note that the quote, by Stephen Edwards, is not taken from the book, The Tao of Physics, by Fritjof Capra.
An important difference is that the process of investigation continues, the unseen is not dismissed as supernatural and unknowable.
<smile> Don't dismiss faith as a process without investigation, or query, Ann. It sometimes is, but is not necessarily so. Whatever faith I have came through a lifelong investigation coupled with a series of empirical experiences.
I have faith in love. Science produces myriad theories regarding its nature. I prefer my faith — it's more poetic, for one, but more importantly it describes my experience of it better than any theory based on scientific methods of inquiry.
Faith may be investigated but, it is not amenable to empirical investigation. This doesn't mean there is no poetry or awe just that it is a different, non-rational means. I prefer to approach the understanding of the world on the basis that it is real and knowable.
As a science educator, I would agree that many people don't understand all scientific constructs but if they want to they can. This differs fundamentally from from chances of understanding the supernatural.
I think you're making an assumption about how I'm using faith, Alan, that limits its application. I'm not talking about "faith in god" or any such religious or spiritual confine, but the idea that acting on a reasonable faith is essential to our daily existence.
As a scientist I apply scientific inquiry to matters that are amenable to its methods. I also prefer to approach the world on the basis that it is real and knowable. But is it always wise to limit yourself to one way of knowing?
As a spiritual being, I recognise also that a number of my experiences are not, as you say, entirely amenable to scientific methods of inquiry. That does not mean they are not immune to rational consideration. Because I cannot scientifically explain them certainly does not change the fact that they are real and known to me. I'm not willing to restrict my knowledge to the narrow confines the methods of science have, thus far, defined as real and known, or perhaps are even able to. And in trying to construct an understanding of the world that fits this knowledge, I am forced to step outside the confines of scientific convention. To maintain that construct, it's necessary to apply a liberal dose of faith. Faith in my experience. And faith in my ability to rationally understand the ramifications of them.
Science and religion share a tendency to a hubris I find dangerous, each setting themselves up as the sole arbiters of what is real and knowable. Thomas Aquinas, Albert Einstein and Carl Jung, among others, were all far too wise for that.
<smile> I agree that many people don't understand their own spiritual nature, but if they want to, they can. Learning to access your spirituality is really not significantly different than learning to understand science. In fact, the basic techniques and methodologies were established thousands of years ago.
J: For some it doesn't matter. For others it does. "A time for every purpose under heaven…" I llike and agree with your thoughts on living…it seems that being my best places me in the category of: it matters to me; it's important to express how.
K: Yep, under most circumstances the spiritual journey seems more difficult than mastering science. I wonder how much that is due to the relative lack of resources and teachers, along with the prevailing negative attitude in our society toward it. And I wonder how much is due to the nature of spiritual knowledge and wisdom, so resistant to the scientific modes of inquiry we've been taught to rely on. Among the things I've learned is not only is there no single authority on spiritual questions, the understandings of two people, when expressed, may appear on the surface to be in conflict when, underlying them, the central ideas are compatible. Not unlike the dual nature of light.
When we look at it from some perspectives, it appears wavelike. When we look at it from other perspectives, it behaves as if it consists of particles. Light is neither a wave, nor a particle. No matter what perspective we see it from, it is still light, and how we describe it takes nothing from the beauty of a sunset. The difficulty arises not in the nature of light, itself, but in how we express our scientific understanding of it. For those with a deeper mathematical comprehension of light, it makes a certain amount of sense. For the rest of us, well…. It's light's illusions I recall…I really don't know light at all.
As far as 'knowing' anything goes I don't think we can hope to do anymore than describe and make connections but, look at the wondrous things we've achieved doing just that!
If you see faith as merely trusting in your judgements which are based on prior observations then I'm with you.
I love it as well…and was in the process of writing much the same comment myself Alan!
That's pretty much what I mean by faith, Alan.
Divine? I'd rather not say it 🙂 But, hey, I'm all for wonder and exquisite sensations that shorten your breath 😉 We are talking about the same thing aren't we?
I agree that there is no "right way" – so to get back to Faith… Faith for me – is the trust that an intelligence (that I am one with) has placed my consciousness here experiencing this reality because my presence is important at this juncture.. I also trust that this intelligence is what inspires me, speaks to me through my dreams, a friend/stranger or sensations with the messages that propel me to create until my presence here is no longer required.. and for the most part, in that I find momentum, peace and joy.
Pat, right up your alley would be the classic book "The Tao of Physics" I suggest you look it up.
Maybe it's time to revisit it?
June, I think water is self-aware and cleverly constructed the world and us in order to get from place to place.
Hey, I liked water so much I let it occupy most of my body. Or, maybe it is their body?
Maybe… or maybe it is the space in between Light Energy..
