Mezcal El Cortijo Pairing with Chocolate Truffles
A means of marketing mezcal, and accepted practice, has traditionally been to suggest pairing a quality añejo (aged at least a year) with fine chocolate which contains 70% or more cacao. But a recent maridaje
in downtown Oaxaca aimed to push the envelope to limits barely explored, or rather enjoyed. Management of the retail outlet and tasting room of Mezcal El Cortijo teamed up with the chocolatier owners of a local truffle manufacturer known as Xhuladii.
Only weeks after the state of Oaxaca hit a new low in its attempt to lure spirits aficionados to the world of mezcal's complexity and plethora of flavor and aroma nuances, residents of and visitors to the state capital were treated to a sampling of four premium El Cortijo mezcals matched with an equal number of chocolate
truffles, each filled with a renowned local delicacy, and in one case a traditional Mexican aromatic herb.
The evening began with a reposado con gusano at 38% alcohol by volume, paired with a truffle filled with tiny chapulines (salted and spiced fried grasshoppers, a typical Oaxacan snack food and ingredient in more complex dishes). The hint of barrel essence and honey from aging, and of course the subtle flavor change created by the gusano (popularly referred to as a worm, but actually a larva) matched exquisitely with
the combination of savory crunchiness on the chocolate's inside, with its smooth, sweet exterior.
Next our hosts upped the ante with a madrecuishe at 46%, minutes earlier our palates having been primed for a higher alcohol content. Madrecuishe is a variety of Agave karwinskii, noted for its complexity. This one was grown in the Miahuatlán district of Oaxaca, celebrated for its rolling hills and climate conducive to the growth of this agave species. While the chicatana filling of the truffle accompaniment was a tad too watery, the unique taste of this seasonal insect, overly liquefied or not, provided perhaps the most exotic
of tastes one can ever hope to encounter in Oaxaca. The casing was comprised of three different chocolates. The consensus of the 15 or so attendees was that this pairing was the weakest of the lot, though no one could deny the quality of the spirit and truffle individually.
The third mezcal entry was another from Miahuatlán, an herbal arroqueño of the Agave americana var. oaxacensis sub-species. At 49%, it was paired with a truffle laden with a local herb known as hierba de borracho, or poleo, normally lauded for its medicinal properties. The hint of fragrant floral of the mezcal worked extremely well with and more than adequately toned down the strong notes of the leafy poleo's spearmint / citrus character.
Our final pairing featured a mezcal made from an agave popularly known as a pulquero, in this case a variety of Agave salmiana, one of several species used to produce the fermented beverage pulque. The 46.3% spirit was matched with a semi-sweet truffle filled with coffee brewed from locally grown
beans. The mezcal tasted stronger in alcohol content than its stated percentage, potentially coming close to
overshadowing any specific flavor (though touted to be perfumado). It required a robust accompaniment. And so both the truffle's chocolate and its coffee filling served the spirit well by softening its strength and allowing its perfume to emerge.
Those of us with substantial collections of different mezcals should take the time and effort to seek out equally diverse types of chocolate, including of course a selection of truffles. Experiment alone, with a partner, or better yet within the context of a gathering of like-minded friends. This all makes for yet another means to an end – the appreciation of the world's most complex and variable spirit, Mexico's own mezcal.

Oaxaca's 16th International Mezcal Fair: La Feria de las Cremas y los Conflictos
In 2011, Oaxaca's annual mezcal fair was a world-class event, well planned, well executed, and praised for its organization and the diversity of mezcal and agave related exhibits. Accordingly, the following year the suits decided to reconstitute the festival as an international event, upgrading it from its national status in previous years.
With the 2011 edition by all accounts the festival's crowning glory, it appeared that the spirit-fest was heading in the right direction, perhaps indeed warranting a more haughty title. It is indeed ironic, then, and unfortunate, that in 2013, the 16th international Feria del Mezcal was marred with factional infighting, vendors who shouldn't have been permitted to exhibit and sell in the first place, at least one federal agency snooping around for regulatory violators, and an inordinate number of booths flogging non-mezcal known as cremas.
The history of the annual fair and the hope for both its future and that of mezcal in general have been examined elsewhere, within the context of a summary article about the 2011 Oaxaca spirit
festival. At that time it was anticipated that improvements in subsequent fests would reflect not only
mezcal's rising star, but a greater sophistication in the palate of its enthusiasts. So what happened?
The silver lining in 2013 was that indeed there was a somewhat greater representation from distillers with more than espadín, tobalá, reposado and añejo (that is, from some of the new kids on the block promoting
different mezcals); there were daily informative lectures; and due to the efforts of Matatlán resident Israel Pérez and his team there was a mockup of a functioning traditional distillery (though the organizers cut his budget by close to 50% which inevitably adversely impacted the spectacle).
Otherwise, Parque Llano where the fete was held appeared more like a travelling circus.
The mezcal regulatory body, COMERCAM, nabbed violators of one of its mandates, that ensures all mezcal offered for sale to the public is certified. Enforcing the law in a general sense is fine and dandy, except that there are only about 250 certified distilleries in Oaxaca, with it's been estimated over a thousand producers.
Many small, family owned and operated and uncertified distilleries enable aficionados to sample spirits of superb flavor and aroma nuances not normally made readily available to the novice unless he or she ventures into Oaxaca's central valleys or further beyond, off the beaten track.
COMERCAM appears to have been interested in warring with its bread and butter, the large factories, at least two of which were issued citations for either serving samples out of uncertified bottles, or outright selling those same bottled mezcals. Is the purpose of the mezcal fair to celebrate, promote and sell all mezcals, or only those certified ones, and if the latter, why even bother when so many exporters of premium product avoid the fair like the plague?
Or has the fair taken a significant leap, now purely intended as a money-maker and nothing more?
Certainly that did not appear to be the case two years ago when works of art centering upon the themes of agave and/or mezcal were displayed, and some of the participating artists gave workshops. The visual sense came alive for those who passed by the exhibition of photographs, oils, lithographs and watercolors. This year, by contrast, a select number of artisans of Oaxacan crafts were permitted to sell their works inside the fair's gates, despite the fact that their wares had nothing to do with anything except making money and showcasing commercial grade Oaxacan folk art. Oaxaca has festivals for the latter purpose. Even so, just outside the inner walled sanctum there were well over 100 booths selling similar products. So why permit this few to cheapen the fair? Is it not the feria internacional del mezcal?
If it is indeed an international mezcal fair, why were there so few producers from other states represented, and why were there so many cremas (sweet liquors made with or without cream, milk or another whitening agent) being offered for sale, which are not even considered mezcals despite the fact that most of them probably contain a small amount of fermented then distilled agave? Regarding the former, economics likely played a significant role in the under-representation of extra-Oaxaca distilleries.
One friend asked if I had been to the feria de cremas yet. I waited until the second to last day to attend, and then better understood the sarcastic nature of his question. Upon arrival, a member of the feria
staff told me that 60% of those who entered the fair were female (men and women entered through different gates, thereby enabling organizers to keep tabs). It has always been assumed that women more so than men are drawn towards cremas, and so from a sales and marketing perspective it perhaps makes sense to have an over-representation of cremas available for sampling and sale. However cremas are not mezcals, plain and simple. Some don't even use the word mezcal in their branding. If COMERCAM is policing a mezcal fair, should it not ensure that only mezcals are being promoted? Of course not, since that is not its mandate. The organizers perhaps?
While as indicated above, there were in fact more vendors than in previous years selling mezcals made with other varieties of agave than espadín and tobalá, and the reposados and añejos were represented adequately. On the other hand, some of the crema vendors were selling cremas and a reposado, and nothing more, not even a blanco. And at least one vendor excitedly awaiting certification of a mezcal made with agave tepeztate could only clandestinely offer samples to those he knew and trusted, for fear of pouncing narcs.
The behind-the-scene politics of the Feria del Mezcal in Oaxaca is beyond my knowledge, I need not be privy to same, and perhaps best if it remains that way. However, it is suggested that an independent overseer is required, someone who is capable of negotiating with producers, regulators and interested third parties, with a view to coming up with a solution to issues which appear to be festering and now maiming the fair's reputation. The ultimate goal should be to attract mezcal aficionados, both domestic and international, who do not have the time to spend days, if not weeks, seeking out and sampling quality mezcals, certified or not. If cremas are deemed to have their legitimate place in an international mezcal fair, then perhaps charge an additional 10 pesos for admission to a special Salón de las Cremas.
Surely artisans wishing entry can be convinced to develop a line of products relating to the subject matter of the fair. Such a display would surely enhance the festival's reputation. Cheese, salsa and other purveyors of
foodstuffs should be interested in attracting business by holding daily open seminars with sampling and combining each of their products with a different preferred mezcal.
Otherwise, subsequent festivals will continue to be mezcal fairs in name only, and the cirque du mezcal will live on and leave in its wake what could have become a world class celebration of mezcal and agave.

Great tutorial, I've used with some success so far.

I have what was sold as an Neo-M8N but as it lacks the flash memory I believe it's a slightly different model. This code should work with all similar uBlox units. I'm not sure if the delays and flushes are strictly necessary or not.
My second change was to try to further solve the issue of the Drone frequently rejecting or ignoring the device.
This does seem to be related to the software version string not being received. Pawelsky's code correctly implements the Sirf protocol for sending the string, but the Drone doesn;t seem very good at picking it up.
This blasts the string at the Drone for the first 20 seconds and seems to make detection much more reliable.

Preface to the Second Edition
This second edition of the multi-volume work goes beyond the comprehensive and systematic coverage of archaeology that appears in the first edition. The field of archaeology continues to grow and the collaborations between archaeologists and researchers in other areas - environmental studies, landscape studies, art history, demography, biomedicine, chemistry, museum specialists, etc. - continues to grow. This second edition builds on the massive collection of information and research from the first edition by adding new entries as well as updating the existing entries.
What is different about the second edition of the Encyclopedia of Global Archaeology? Firstly, when we started the second edition, we knew it was built on a strong foundation.We gained confidence to experiment a little more as we came to appreciate that this flexible, international, interdisciplinary (sometimes postdisciplinary) approach to scholarship is successful. At the time of writing the encyclopedia has had 400,000 downloads, according to Bookmetrics. In 2019, the Encyclopedia of Global Archaeology was the third most cited and the fourth most downloaded of 804 books in Springer's 2014 Humanities, Law and Social Sciences collection. By early 2020, the first edition had been cited 635 times. We can be confident that people are using, and citing, this encyclopedia.
The second edition of the Encyclopedia of Global Archaeology is broader in concept than the original. It is informed by a definition of archaeology that I developed, archaeology as "the study of human behaviour, past and present, through the analysis of material culture, both real and virtual, as situated within cultural landscapes" (Claire Smith, Pyrenae, Vol. 48 (1), April, 2017). In this edition of the encyclopedia, there is a greater emphasis on the virtual realm, a trend that will continue. I love the biographies, especially of those archaeologists from countries whose first language is not English. I have learnt a lot about the scholars who established archaeology in Japan, Argentina, Russia, India, and other parts of the world. I have learnt about their lives as well as their archaeological achievements. Finally, I return to the
review in Antiquity:
The city's panegyrists described it [Rome] as a cosmopolis, a place where the full
diversity of the known world—its peoples, ideas, animals, plants and things of every
kind—could be experienced in a single place. Such is the Encyclopedia of Global

95 percent of all new contracts must be green
Federal News Network Staff
By Jason Miller
Federal News Radio
Agencies must now make almost every acquisition green and more sustainable.
Under an interim rule issued today, the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) Council changed the procurement regulations to meet the goals of President Obama's October 2009 Executive Order. The interim rule also incorporates parts of a similar Executive Order issued by President Bush in March 2007.
Agencies have been expected to do sustainable purchasing, but the changes to the FAR make it a mandate.
"Federal agencies are additionally required to implement high-performance sustainable building design, construction, renovation, repair, commissioning, operation and maintenance, management, and deconstruction practices in applicable acquisitions," the interim rules stated. "Contractors will be required to support the goals of an agency's environmental management system."
The FAR Council is accepting comments through Aug. 1 on the interim rule.
Under the new regulation, agencies are required "to advance sustainable acquisition by ensuring that 95 percent of new contract actions (including those for construction) contain requirements for products that are designated as energy-efficient, water-efficient, biobased, environmentally preferable (e.g., EPEAT-registered, non-toxic or less toxic alternatives), non-ozone depleting, or those that contain recovered materials."
The policy also requires agencies to buy recycled content and biobased products or require them in the acquisition of services; the delivery, use, or furnishing of such products, which must meet, but may exceed, the minimum recycled or biobased content of an Environmental Protection Agency or Department of Agriculture-designated product.
The interim rule encourages agencies to accept bid proposals electronically, but if they can't, vendors must "submit paper documents to the government relating to an acquisition printed or copied double-sided on at least 30 percent postconsumer fiber paper whenever practicable. If the contractor cannot print or copy double-sided, it shall print or copy single-sided on at least 30 percent postconsumer fiber paper."
Additionally, the interim rule wants agencies to use EPA's Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) program to better understand which products are safe alternatives to ozone-depleting substances.
In other acquisition news, the FAR Council issued the final rule amending the regulations to add to the list of contract administration functions, the function to ensure that contractors have implemented the mandatory contractor business ethics program requirements.
"This final rule amends the FAR in response to recommendations from the Government Accountability Office report GAO-09-591, Defense Contracting Integrity – Opportunities Exist to Improve DoD's Oversight of Contractor Ethics Programs," the final rule stated.

Back on October 3, 2007, I wrote a post called "Chapter 13 Trustees Sink to New Level of Absurdity" in which I discussed some of the objections I had received in one of my Chapter 13 cases. One objection was an objection to a $15 expense for recreation and the second was an objection to a food and an apparel budget allocation that was less than what the IRS permits in its pro forma budget.
The case is coming up for confirmation and I am in negotiation with the assistant trustee. The assistant trustee responsible for confirmation is not the same trustee who handled the 341 hearing. The confirmation trustee has been around a little and has injected a little common sense into the process.
With regard to the $15 recreation expense objection, the trustee withdrew her objection without any comment.
My case is still not confirmed, but I'm knocking down the objections one by one.

Planning for your children's future
Cover for the Spanish language workbook.
As immigrant families are facing increasing challenges and harsh restrictions on their liberty, many parents are forced to confront the reality of being separated from their children because of detainment or deportation. Along with having to navigate complex legal battles that often put them at risk, parents also have to plan ahead for their children.
The Center for Family Life first approached CUP in 2017 to create a set of tools to help parents facing deportation find a caregiver for their children and plan for the next steps. After using these tools in workshops across New York City, CFL found that parents were looking for support in the difficult and emotional process of talking to children about their situation.
CUP collaborated with the Center for Family Life and designer Lizania Cruz to create a workbook and conversation guide for parents. The guide includes age-appropriate tips on how to talk to children and involve them in the process, and how to plan for such an event with your family and a potential caregiver. The guide is available in both Spanish and English.
Planning for your children's future launched at a symposium for immigrant rights advocates at Recess art in March 2019. The guide will be used in workshops conducted by the Center for Family Life and distributed with the first set of tools that were created.
Center for Family Life, a program of SCO Family of Services, is a neighborhood-based family and social services organization with deep roots in Sunset Park, Brooklyn.
Lizania Cruz is a New York-based designer working in education, adovcacy, and the arts. She brings a decade of design experience to her current work at the branding studio Language Department. Lizania recently launched her own jewelry line called Bagavundas.
Support for this project was provided by the New York Women's Foundation and the Brooklyn Community Foundation.

Stand With Arizona! | Enforce Immigration Laws!
Stand for enforcement of immigration laws!
Illegal immigration is out of control in this country. Everyone knows that. Well, the State of Arizona is attempting, as is its right, to get control over its own borders and protect its own citizens. To do so, it has passed SB1070, a law that enjoys overwhelming support by Arizonans and all Americans. And yet the Obama Administration, rather than help Arizona, has decided to sue Arizona in an effort to have SB1070 declared unconstitutional. Why? Because the Obama Administration and its allies—the Mexican government and various left-wing open borders groups—do not want this country's immigration laws enforced.
Well, Mr. President, we do! Stand with us and show your support for Arizona by purchasing an "Enforce AZ / U.S. Law" wristband and we will donate a portion of the proceeds to support Arizona in its defense of legal challenges to SB1070.

Hearing the name Porto evokes the image of sitting by the Douro River, sipping a glass of the country's famous sweet Port wine, watching the iconic Rabelo Boats lazily float by. That's why we picked the second largest city in Portugal as our final stop. We love incorporating wine tours into our plans when we visit new places, and it didn't seem right to leave Portugal without a trip to the region that produces a significant amount of wine. We didn't expect to live out our vision of wine by the water (it was almost January, after all!), so Porto became a great launching pad for a trip to the Douro Valley and also to Braga and Guimarães.
We did leave time to see Porto, though—a whole day, in fact. But that day was New Year's Day, a national holiday that, like much of the rest of the world, is celebrated by shuttering businesses and enjoying time with friends and family. That left us with one whole day to navigate quiet streets and find some way to occupy our time.
But before we faced that challenge, we celebrated New Year's Eve in Porto.
This trip marked our third consecutive year celebrating New Year's Eve in a foreign city (Cape Town's huge city party and Reykjavik's bonfires and fireworks were our previous destinations). We did some research on how to spend our evening beforehand, but outside of Douro River cruises we came up somewhat empty—and spending a cold night on a boat was not something we wanted to do. While at lunch in Braga we asked our guide Yorick about our options for the evening, and he told us there were two primary places to consider: the first was the big outdoor party by Liberdade Square with music and fireworks just around the corner from our hotel, and the second involved finding a nice vantage point by the bridge where we could photograph the fireworks over the city. We love landscapes more than parties these days, so that was an easy decision to make.
New Year's Eve fireworks over Porto. This was our view from the Mosteiro da Serra do Pilar viewing deck. Get there early for a good spot- it filled fast.
We arrived back from Guimarães late in the day, so it wasn't long before we were back outside in search of our perfect spot. Adam had spent some time studying Google Maps in the warmth of our hotel room, and he planned a route that would take us to the other side of the river and up to the viewing deck of Mosteiro da Serra do Pilar (Google Maps Location), a monastery that sits high above Porto. Our walk across the river was a bit disconcerting; we seemed to be the only people walking away from the party, which made us wonder if the locals just knew something we didn't. After crossing the bridge, the monastery was a quick, slightly steep climb for us, and we were immediately greeted with sweeping views of the city and even a bit of a peek at the concert and huge screens that projected the performers. It was just after 11 PM, and we thought it was a bit strange that the viewing deck was somewhat deserted; South Africa and Iceland both boasted much bigger crowds so close to midnight.
In this case, the locals did know something we didn't think of—it was really, really cold out, and they didn't arrive to watch the fireworks until much closer to midnight. Those who arrived early sat in their parked cars, and I put some serious thought into whether my Portuguese was strong enough to tap on someone's window and ask if we could sit in the backseat to warm up for a while. Eventually, though, midnight crept closer, and the crowds turned up in huge numbers. However, by the time we were shoulder to shoulder with all of the people clamoring for a good view, Adam and I felt like ice cubes. From so high up over Porto, the wind was chilling and steady, and even in winter jackets we didn't feel that we dressed warmly enough. At the stroke of midnight, though, we briefly forgot just how cold we were as fireworks erupted over Liberdade Square on the other side of the Douro River.
We made a great choice to find a good vantage point above Porto to capture both the fireworks and the beautiful cityscape.
The fireworks show was impressive and lasted more than 20 minutes, so by the time it concluded we were more than ready to return to the warmth of our hotel room. The wind felt even colder when we crossed the bridge the second time, and I could barely feel my face as we walked into our hotel's lobby. All worth it in the end, though; the chill wore off quickly, but the memories and beautiful pictures were well worth an hour or so of discomfort!
We slept in on New Year's Day (a huge treat for us—usually our itineraries have us waking up really early to get our start), so when we emerged into the daylight we were somewhat refreshed and really excited to start exploring.
Livraria Lello. Sadly, it was closed.
We started with a brisk walk to Livraria Lello, the bookstore with an incredible staircase that inspired the library in the Harry Potter series. I happen to share a birthday with Harry Potter (and J.K. Rowling), which made it even more meaningful for me to stand on the doorstep of a place so influential to a series that captivated me for so long. Sadly, the doorstep was as far as I was destined to make it (the bookstore was closed for the holiday), so with one strike against us, Adam and I decided to regroup over lunch.
It wasn't quite noon yet, but our lunch options were limited to say the least. The first open spot we found was a bakery, but we wanted something more substantial than pastries. Further down the road we found a full service restaurant, but I was immediately put off by the set of menus they had, each bearing a different country flag to indicate the language it was printed in, with pictures of lifeless lasagna and burned burgers. I rejected this place, too, which meant we were still on the hunt for our next meal. We eventually decided to walk in the direction of the wine cellars (where we planned to spend the balance of our day) and pick a place along the route.
Because we love to explore side streets and generally avoid taking taxis or even public transportation if a reasonable walking route is available, we knew the wine caves were about 45 minutes away, which meant 45 minutes of opportunities to find lunch. Thanks to the holiday, though, our route ended up being a scenic tour of all of the restaurants that were closed for the day. I could feel my stomach grumbling with every step as we crossed the bridge. After about five minutes of nice, flat, paved streets, Google Maps directed us up an incredibly long, steep hill (so long and steep, in fact, we took a water break part of the way up to give our sore legs a minute to recover). By now we were well into a residential area with absolutely no hope of finding a lunch spot, so we resigned ourselves to wine tasting on empty stomachs. I considered this our second strike; if we encountered one more I felt like I might throw in the towel entirely.
Our destination was Taylor's, one of the most well-known and distinguished wine cellars in Porto (it came highly recommended from other travellers). Their website indicated they were open on New Year's Day, so I felt confident that, if a third strike were in our future, it wouldn't be there.
We walked onto the property and audibly cheered when we saw they not only had a tasting room, they had a restaurant! We walked in and were seated immediately (though it seemed arriving without a reservation was an issue at first, the hostess was very happy to accommodate us). They offered a prix fixe menu, which we were very happy to order, and we savored an aperitif (dry white port) paired with olives, fresh bread and cheese, and prawns. All of this was followed by a creamy poultry spread served in a puff pastry, seafood pasta (for Adam) and roast duck with red fruit (for me), and decadent chocolate cake with espresso to complete the meal. We also got to select a glass of red or white wine to sip during the first courses, so between us we ordered a glass of each (both were lovely!). I caught myself smiling as we left to explore Taylor's wine cellar—just when it looked like we wouldn't have any lunch options at all, we wound up starting the year with an incredible four course gourmet meal. Good things come to those who wait!
We took Taylor's self-guided tour of the wine caves that walked us through the history of the establishment, the port making process, and a history of port in Portugal before delivering us to a tasting room where we again sampled the white port as well as a ruby. For visitors not familiar with winemaking, the tour would be fantastic; it's an audio tour designed to take more than an hour, so the information shared is very thorough. We skipped a good deal of the audio commentary because we know quite a bit about winemaking from previous wine tours (the port production process really isn't very different), but we thought the visuals presented through pictures, charts, and videos were great. The enormous wine barrels were also fun to see.
From Taylor's we walked closer to the waterfront, where to our great surprise the city had come to life! It seemed all of Porto slept through lunch and woke up to open shops in the mid-afternoon. While many of the wine cellars were closed for the day, shops and restaurants were open, so we treated ourselves to small cups of gelato and sat by the water to eat them. While I had expected wine by the water when I first thought of Porto, ice cream by the water was a perfectly serviceable alternative.
The sun was beginning to set, so we thought it was a good time to venture back to the other side of the river for the evening. We bought two one-way tickets on the teleférico, and they came with a complimentary glass of port from a wine cellar we hadn't passed on our walk. The line to take the cable car was long, so we crossed the street to visit Quevado. We quickly received our port, a very nice tawny, and it seemed just as quick that we finished our glasses and returned to the cable car. The line had completely vanished, so we were ushered into a car and returned back to the top of the hill within minutes.
We spent the rest of the evening somewhat aimlessly wandering around, admiring the older buildings and relaxing for a bit in front of the Christmas tree in Liberdad Square, which was much quieter than it had been the night before when scores of people filled it for the concert and fireworks. On our way back to our hotel, we stopped in front of a packed McDonald's with a huge bronze bald eagle that sat above its door. It was easily one of the most American things we had ever seen, and we were a whole ocean away from home.
Visit Porto for New Year's Eve!
I'll be the first to admit holidays can be difficult to navigate when you are visiting a foreign city. We encountered all of the classic issues: many places were closed, and our options were limited. Our time in Porto was great despite the issues, though—maybe even because of them. We had to be flexible with our plans, tolerant of the challenges, and open to the unknown. Our efforts were rewarded with a delicious lunch, delicious port, and some great sightseeing on off-the-beaten-path roads. Mostly, though, we found there was a lot to love about a quiet day in Porto. It was the perfect way to begin our new year.

The elementary education BAE program leads to elementary education certification in the state of Arizona for grades K-8.
This program offers students a firm grounding in academic content with current research and best practices, accompanied by real-world classroom experiences. Faculty are nationally recognized in their fields of expertise. This program also provides extensive experiences in integrating technology into teaching.
The teacher certification program for elementary education is clinically embedded during the junior and senior years. The primary goal of all clinical experiences is to provide interns and student teachers with multiple opportunities to apply knowledge learned in coursework to practice in preK-12 classrooms. Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College students complete internships during their junior year that require one day per week in grades K-8 classrooms and student teaching, which is a full-time, year-long apprenticeship known as their senior year residency. Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College faculty and highly qualified mentor teachers from our partner school districts and charter schools collaboratively coach interns and student teachers during required clinical experiences. The clinical experience provided by the program, known as iTeachAZ, is unmatched in Arizona. It provides students with an opportunity to work directly with children and make an immediate impact on classroom achievement. This intensive, hands-on clinical experience model of teacher preparation creates highly sought-after graduates.
Graduates are recommended for grades K-8 elementary teacher certification. Those desiring to teach in a public school must pass the appropriate Arizona educator exams, National Evaluation Series or Arizona Educator Proficiency Assessments, to be certified to teach in the state of Arizona.

If you go into the woods today… you might just come home with dinner. Edible Wild Food's master naturalist Karen Stephenson has foraged in local forests for ten years and has taught the pursuit to other people for five. She's leading a forest hunt for edible and medicinal plants on June 8 starting at 10am for the Dufferin Simcoe Land Stewardship Network. The walk takes place in the Tottenham Tract of the Simcoe County Forest.
Karen's foraged finds also make their way into her medicine cabinet. Skin salves made with plantain and chickweed can relieve itchy skin and irritation due to stings and bites, for instance. Come for the combination hike/grocery shop en plein air and stay for the freshly steeped wild plant beverage at the end (bring your own mug). Registration required at dslsn.org.
Blue eggs from Twisted Cedars Farms in Mono. Photo by Mandy Resendes.
They look like Easter eggs, but that's not dye on these pastel shells – the colour is natural pigment produced by rare-breed chickens. Not only would these heritage eggs make a delightful (and tasty) Easter centrepiece, buying them helps farmers protect the genetic diversity of their flocks.
Mandy Resendes and Geoffrey Lawrence have been raising the Araucana and Ameraucana breeds, known for their blue eggs, and other mixes of hens for three and a half years at Twisted Cedars Farms in Mono. "Our hens are local and loved," Mandy says. Email them for availability and directions at [email protected].
Also in Mono, the Curry family sells their rainbow beauties (as well as regular eggs) from a cooler at the end of their Providence Meadows driveway on Mono Centre Road. Call ahead at 519-942-9505 to check availability.
Both farms sell their colourful eggs for $5 a dozen.

Caramel Café is Bolton's newest dessert and coffee house, located on Parr Boulevard. Consider dropping in for the most popular item on the menu, the Classic. Owner Ali Abdolrazzak calls the enormous confection "the best of everything," with vanilla ice cream, strawberries, chocolate pearls, whipped cream and Belgian chocolate sauce piled high on either a crêpe ($13.50) or waffle ($14.50) made from scratch. The dessert is meant to induce "a craving to come back for more," says Ali. We think he's succeeded.

At a time when carbs can seem taboo, Shelly calmly puts the coffee on and shares her love of the scent and texture of fresh, homemade dough. "We make friends and influence people when we serve these breads, and our families remember them forever," she says.
You can also fill the void on Easter Monday with Pancakes + Waffles + Kids = Fun, a kid-friendly session on making waffles and pancakes in various shapes and textures including waffle sticks, rounded bubble waffles and pancakes – the last served with an egg on top.
Oh so yummy butter chicken. Shutterstock 489193066.
Creamy, zingy butter chicken – we're spoiled for choice when it comes to this cozy Indian staple. In Orangeville, head to the venerable Coriander Kitchen or Foal Village Pub on Broadway, or to the newly opened Curry Mantra in the west end of town. To the south, Indian Sizzler on Kennedy Road in Caledon has you covered. And to the north, butter chicken is standard fare in the pub at Mono Cliffs Inn. Or plan ahead for the times when you're in homebody mode and stock up on Rosemont General Store's mouth-watering frozen version.
The second annual Shelburne Multicultural Day is happening at Centre Dufferin District High School on May 4 from noon to 4pm. In addition to eye-opening activities such as First Nations drumming and Caribbean folk poetry, there will be a wide range of nibbles. Last year visitors sampled jerk chicken, fried plantain, samosas, candied bacon and a deep-fried Guyanese snack called pholourie.
Contact organizer Althea Casamento at [email protected] to contribute and visit Shelburne Multicultural Day on Facebook for updates.
Caledon-made Country Brew is a new brand comprising two kinds of effervescent fermented drinks: kombucha, brewed with black tea and sugar, and jun (rhymes with fun), made from green tea and honey. Hits of added flavour come from berries, lemon or chai seasoning.
They're available at local outlets including the Rosemont General Store.
Karen Stephenson (www.ediblewildfood.com) will identify plants, and describe their edible and medicinal values, ending with a wild plant beverage (bring your own mug). Karen is a certified master naturalist who has been a forager for over ten years and a wild food educator for five. $20, register.
I am happy to report the fiddlehead quiche was a complete success! Based on the theory of "time before total disappearance" that exists in my house, it scored a 10 (minutes).

Soviet Record of Conversation between Mikhail Gorbachev and Egon Krenz
The new Secretary General of East Germany, Egon Krenz, traveled to Moscow on November 1, 1989 to meet in person with Gorbachev and assess the situation in East Germany and discuss possible paths forward. Throughout the lengthy meeting, Krenz and Gorbachev spoke openly about the challenges that now faced the GDR. Gorbachev, for the most part, remained hopeful that the new GDR leadership could instigate the necessary reforms that would save the GDR from complete collapse. Here, it is quite interesting to note just how steadfast Gorbachev remained in 1989 to the ideals of socialism and the necessity to defend those ideals against the magnetic appeal of capitalism. Also interesting is the personal nature of Gorgachev's observations about leaders in the East and West.
Egon Krenz was also straightforward in his assessment of the situation in the GDR. Like Gorbachev, Krenz remained optimistic that the GDR could withstand the hardships brought about by reform and emerge from the crisis in a better position. One might note that the German notes from this meeting are far longer and richer in detail than the Soviet notes and that these notes focus more on Gorbachev than Krenz.
See also the East German notes from this same meeting here.
Mikhail Gorbachev, conversation with Egon Krenz, 1 November 1989, trans. Svetlana Savranskaya, Notes of A. S. Chernyaev, Archive of the Gorbachev Foundation, Cold War International History Project, Documents and Papers, CWIHP (accessed May 14, 2008).
Primary Source—Excerpt
Gorbachev: The Soviet people are very interested in everything that is going on now in the GDR. We hope to get the most recent information from you, although, of course, we know a lot. The situation in the GDR, judging by everything we see, is moving at an increasing speed. Is there a danger of getting left behind the reforms? Remember, we said in Berlin [2] that to be behind is always to lose. We know that from our own experience.
Krenz: We have already taken a number of steps. First of all, we gave orders to the border troops not to use weapons at the border, except in the cases of direct attacks on the soldiers. Secondly, we adopted a draft of Law on Foreign Travel at the Politburo. [3] We will present it for a public discussion, and we plan to pass it in the Volkskammer even before Christmas. [...]
Gorbachev: Kohl was visibly worried when I mentioned the perverse interpretation of some of our agreements with the FRG in my 8 October speech in Berlin. He immediately gave me a telephone call regarding that.
Krenz: Yes, he is worried; I noticed it in my conversation with him. He was even forgetting to finish phrases.
Gorbachev: Kohl, it seems, is not a big intellectual, but he enjoys certain popularity in his country, especially among the petit-bourgeois public.
