Without further ado, it's my pleasure to introduce you to my guest for the Scavenger Hunt, Tamera Alexander. Tamera is a master of historical fiction, an author who consistently writes novels that draw you into their stories and hold you fast until the final page.
I have not had the pleasure of reading With This Pledge – yet. But it's on my immediate TBR list.
Here's her professional bio, in case you'd like to learn more: Tamera Alexander is a USA Today bestselling author and one of today's most popular writers of inspirational historical romance. She lives in Nashville, Tennessee with her husband, not far from the Southern mansions that serve as the backdrop for many of her critically-acclaimed novels.
Sorely wounded and disillusioned, a decorated Mississippi sharpshooter clings to life after the Confederacy is dealt a heavy blow. Elizabeth "Lizzie" Clouston's quietly held principles oppose those of the Southern Cause—but when forty thousand soldiers converge on the fields of Franklin, Tennessee, the war demands an answer. From the pages of history and the real love letters between Captain Roland Ward Jones and Miss Lizzie Clouston who met—and fell in love—following the Battle of Franklin (November 1863), With This Pledge is the story of unlikely romance first kindled amid the shadows of war.
You can purchase her book from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Indie Bound, Christian Book, or your local bookstore.
I often wonder how Captain Roland Ward Jones and Elizabeth (Lizzie) Clouston—real people who lived in the 19th century—would feel knowing that their lives and love letters are the inspiration for a 21st century novel.
Captain Roland Jones and Lizzie Clouston are the real life hero and heroine in With This Pledge who met and fell in love at Carnton in Franklin, Tennessee during the Civil War, following the Battle of Franklin on November 30, 1864.
David has shared the love letters between Roland and Lizzie with me, along with the family history (as have the wonderful folks at Carnton), and this rich wealth of resources and intimate insights have made the writing journey for With This Pledge a wonderful one. But it hasn't been without its challenges. Weaving real history with fiction can be tricky. Add to that a cast of characters which is largely based on real people…and the challenges multiply!
I first visited Carnton in the fall of 2007 after my husband and I moved to Nashville following 17 years in Colorado. I purchased my ticket for the tour in a small trailer on the grounds and walked up a worn path toward the house.
As the docent unfolded Carnton's history and turned time back on itself, I fell a little in love with the home that day—and with the McGavocks, the real family who lived there. But it was the living, breathing memory of what happened within those walls and on the surrounding hallowed fields of a bloody Civil War battle that stayed with me through the years. That kept pulling me back to Carnton.
And now, 11 years—and 15 novels—later, it's those same living, breathing memories that have inspired me to write about this home, this family, and the remarkable people who lived, worked, fought and died at Carnton.
Christmas at Carnton, a Carnton novella, released in October 2017 and was written specifically to launch this brand new Southern series.

Giveaway: Leave a comment with your favorite holiday recipe for a chance to win a hardcover copy of Lady of a Thousand Treasures. US residents only due to shipping costs.
Believe it or not, my favorite recipe is green bean casserole. I love the french fried onion crunch with the green beans. I use french-style cut green beans instead of the regular cut, though. Thanks for the giveaway opportunity and good luck everyone.
Our local paper had an article on the creation of green been casserole. Dorcas Reilly died Oct. 15th at the age of 92. You can find the article on Associated Press written by Shawn Marsh. Haddonfield, NJ. Pretty odd tidbit, huh.
I saw that she passed away. I just always assumed that the recipe was created within the kitchen of Campbell's.
My favorite holiday recipe is Pumpkin roll. So yummy!!
My favorite Thanksgiving dish is Sweet Potato Casserole!! It is the best!
My favorite holiday recipe is green bean casserole. I use cream of chicken soup instead of cream of mushroom soup. I love the green beans with the French onions. Anoher one of my favorites is the cookies with craisens and white chocolate morsels.
My mom's Armenian Paklava! We haven't had since she past away 16 years ago. She did teach me to make it, but I haven't attempted to do it yet.
My favorite is a cookie from Norway.
My favorite holiday recipe is: Chocolate Peanut Butter cookies! They're so delicious!
These sound wonderful! Thank you for sharing the link to the recipe! Good Luck in the scavenger hunt!
Oddly , my favorite holiday recipe is by grandmas fruitcake recipe. It's the perfect combination of cake and fruit.
A family favorite has always been a dessert recipe of my G-Aunt's – Sweet Potato Bread – with mashed sweet potatoes, raisins, dates, and cinnamon/spice.
My homemade peanut butter fudge and chocolate hazelnut fudge.
My favorite holiday recipe is cranberry-orange bread.
I think my favorite is either my dads pumpkin pie (or pumpkin cheesecake) or the cream cheese sugar cookies we sometimes make for Christmas. I like cutting out cookie shapes.
I still have young kids, so my favorites are what they make with me! Gingerbread cookies cut in shapes and decorated are our favorite!!
Corn casserole—I make it every year for our holiday get togethers!
My favorite is green bean casserole.

Cinnamon Rolls are a Christmas morning must!
My favorite holiday recipe is iced/ decorated butter cookies.
I love my Mama's baking, so, pretty much anything she makes!

Pumpkin pie, for sure! Really, I love anything pumpkin, no matter the season, haha.
Carrot cake is my fav….and of course pecan pie!!!
My favorite holiday recipe is Chex mix or shortbread cookies.
One of my favorite recipes for Christmas is Bourbon Balls. I use TBS instead of tsp of bourbon. Also, sweet potato casserole. I love to experiment with it and change something or add something every year. Family never knows what it will taste like.
Man, way to many to choose from. One of my favorite holiday recipes would have to be sweet potato casserole.
My favorite holiday recipe is pumpkin ice cream, a depression recipe from my great-grandmother. Neither she, nor my grandmother or mother made pumpkin pies! My mother discovered a quicker way to make the ice cream instead of making the ice cream base from scratch. It tastes great and is much better than what is sold in the store or ice cream shops.
I love stuffing with apples and cranberry sauce. For dessert Guyanese biscuit.
I'm a little different in that I enjoy appetizers a little (ok a LOT) more than the main course holiday dinners. We've always served a dip with chips and veggies called El Cheapo! It has only 6 ingredients: For every one can of kidney beans you add 1 cup each of shredded cheese and sour cream; one pkg green onion dip mix; 1/4 tsp each of garlic powder and cumin. Oh now I guess i'm going to have to make a batch tonight! Enjoy our books sooo much!
I have so many from my southern cornbread chicken and dressing , red velvet cake, homemade chicken n dumplings, and especially my rolls with cream cheese and onion n chives baked inside.
Norwegian Lefsa is my favorite holiday food. Very special and traditional.
my favorite recipe is homemade pumpkin rolls love making them and of course eating them!
My favorite recipe is my daughter-in-laws homemade peppermint bark. She makes it for me every year.
I love Christmas sugar cookies! It's so fun to decorate them.
I have a recipe for a frozen cranberry salad that is just like ice cream. And it's very simple. Thanks for the chance.
One of my stepdaughters makes a fabulous pumpkin cheesecake.
One of my favorites (because it's entirely too difficult a task to truly pick just one favorite) was my great aunt's strawberry gelatin salad (with a crust of pretzels). And I have a love/hate thing with my grandma's minced meat pies, haha. (the only time I ever have them is the holidays).
We have a couple! My Mom makes her favorite fruit salad that uses Tang 🙂 And I make my Mema's secret Tea Cake cookie recipe.
My favorite holiday recipe is my mother's recipe for gum drop bread (made with spiced gum drops).
My favorite and most often used holiday recipe is Cookie Ornaments. They are the best sugar cookies!
My favorite recipe is of hot cinammon rolls!!! I love them! And especially in this time of the year!
Bring them to a boil and let them simmer for a few minutes. Delicious on a cold winter night!
My favorite holiday recipe is red velvet cake….love to make it for our family.
I really don't cook much. But one thing I do well is the traditional pumpkin pie.
Mix crushed pretzels with melted butter and 2 tablespoons sugar. Press pretzel mixture into the bottom of 9 x 13-inch casserole dish and bake until set, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
Mix together cream cheese, 3/4 cup sugar, and whipped topping in a large bowl until smooth. Spread over the cooled crust, making sure to spread completely to the edges.
My favorite holiday recipe is my mom's molasses cookies. She makes them every year but only at Christmas. Many of us girls have used her recipe ourselves, but they never turn out as well as mom's. Yum!
Thank you for the contest. My favorite holiday recipe is Cream Corn Casserole. I use the recipe in the Betty Cricket Cookbook.
I'm not sure I can pick one favorite, since we make dozens of kinds of Christmas cookies every year … (not that I want to think about Christmas–I'm not ready yet!!) But pumpkin pie is, of course, a favorite, and cherry pie is also amazing.
I love the story, since real historical "fiction" has to be my favorite type of book. Those letters are so cool!
My favorite holiday recipe is just plain old Christmas Sugar cookies. When I was a kid we would decorate them with my grandmother with red, green, and white frosting along with sprinkles.
I like all the homemade goodies.
I like Mexican wedding cookie. They are so good. I have to hide them so that I will not eat them all.
*Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
Cream butter or margarine in a bowl, gradually add confectioners' sugar and salt. Beat until light and fluffy. Add pecans and vanilla. Blend in flour gradually and mix well.
Shape into balls (or crescents) using about 1 teaspoon for each cookie. Place on ungreased cookie sheets, and bake for 15-20 min. Do not brown. Cool slightly, then roll in the extra confectioners' sugar.
I absolutely love gingerbread donuts! They're baked so I can pretend they're healthy!
My favorite holiday recipe would be my grandmother's dressing which consists of bread crumbs, crackers, cornbread, and lots of sage. Yum!
Combine fruit in bowl. Mix cool whip and pudding mix. Add pineapple juice until desired consistency is achieved. Add mixture to fruit and stir to coat. Fold in nuts. Enjoy.
Since I'm watching my weight and also diabetic, I avoid the crust by making pumpkin custard (pie filling) by the recipe on the can of pumpkin puree. I do substitute 4 packages of Sweet 'n Low for the sugar and the lowest calorie almond milk (I'm lactose intolerant.) for the milk.. Once I've cooked the custard according to the directions on the can, I cover and refrigerate the custard in little containers with lids. As I prepare to eat one, I put a dollop of sugar-free Cool Whip on top. So, I get all the cinnamon and other flavors of the pumpkin custard, enjoy the fact that pumpkin is a vegetable, but the custard serves as a dessert for me.
My favorite holiday recipes are mincemeat cookies, pumpkin pie and gingerbread men.
I love Sweet Potato Casserole for Thanksgiving. My grandma's recipe!
This is too hard to narrow down! Every year I look forward to butterhorn rolls, cheesey potatoes, molasses cookies, pumpkin pie, peanut butter fudge…..
Two of my favorites Fudge (made with Hershey Cocoa and Fluff, recipe lost) and Starlite Mint Surprise Cookies (mints too hard to find and the recipe lost). One other item is haystacks. Quick and easy.
Can of Choy Mein noodles 24 oz.
I love pumpkin cake, green bean casserole and Christmas sugar cookies and gingerbread men cookies.
One of my favorite holiday recipes is Pumpkin Crunch. It is made with a yellow cake mix, butter, and pecans as the "crust", and then pumpkin on top. I used to work at a cookbook printing place, and I found this recipe in one of the cookbooks we made.
My favorite recipe is whatever my sister uses to make her bread dressing…it's stale bread, melted butter, celery, onion, and delicious, lip smacking love!
I make orange rolls at Christmas to give away as gifts, my favorite.
i dont really have a favorite Christmas recipe because i really dont like Christmas….i always get depressed around that time of year and it makes me not even way to celebrate….so most times it is like just another day to me. But thank you for giving us the chance to win.
I really like pecan pie but I have also discovered this recipe for cranberry orange pinwheels that I enjoy making during cranberry season.
Cornbread Stuffing 🙂 I also like Cranberry Crunch pie…tastes just like Cherry Pie only better!
I would say my Mom's pumpkin pie or Grandma's cereal cookies.
My Mawmaw's corn casserole is one of my very favorites ever! 😍 So yummy!!
My go-to recipe at the holidays is mini cheesecakes: 2-8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened; 1/4 cup sugar; 2 large eggs; 1 Tbsp lemon juice; 2 tsp vanilla; 24 vanilla wafers; 1- 21 oz. can cherry pie filling. Beat cream cheese, sugar, eggs, lemon juice and vanilla until light and fluffy. Line muffin pans or cupcake tins with paper baking cups and place a vanilla wafer in the bottom of each cup. Fill the cups two-thirds full with cream cheese mixture. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes at 375 degrees or until tops start to crack. Let cool, then top each with a tablespoon of cherry pie filling. I sometimes use other pie fillings also such as lemon or blueberry, but cherry seems to be the most popular. Refrigerate until ready to serve. This recipe makes about 18 to 24 cheesecakes.
Pecan Pie will forever be my favorite!
My favorite holiday recipe is our family's Swiss bread that we make. It's so yummy, especially warm from the oven.
We always make pretzels dipped in almond bark! I even make some for my son-in-law's mother – she loves the treat too!!!
I love to make candy during the holidays to give to friends and family with my mom. We have been making candy together ever since I can remember. My favorites are buckeyes (chocolate covered peanut butter balls), chocolate covered coconut-pecan truffles, and Oreo truffles.
My favorite Christmas recipes are Boiled Cookies, Peanut Butter Fudge, and Double Good Brownies. These are all family recipes and remind me of those special times spent with my extended family.
I discovered this recipe a few years ago, and now these are my favorite Christmas cookie!
My favorite food during the holidays is my mom's Party Mix. We HAVE to have it during the holidays. Thanksgiving through Christmas.
In a large bowl, combine corn syrup, sugar, eggs, butter, salt and vanilla; mix well.
Bake for 45- 50 minutes or until center is set.
(Toothpick inserted in center will come out clean, when pie is done.).
(If crust or pie appears to be getting too brown, cover with foil for the remaining baking time.).
You can top it with a bit of whip cream if desired.
One of my favorite recipes is homemade pecan butter. Just toast the pecans in the oven for a few minutes, with salt on them. Then, toss them in a food processor, and keep whirring the blades until you get a creamy smooth nut butter. DELICIOUS!
My favorite Christmas recipe is all of my family in one place! Then everything tastes good!
My favorite holiday recipe is homemade caramel! It tastes worlds better than any store-bought kind, and it's so good to dip tart apples into!
My mama's Christmas ham or sugar cookies we'd decorate together!
My favorite holiday recipe is our family's version of gussied-up Chex Mix: worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, garlic powder mixed with melted butter, over corn chex, rice chex, wheat chex, buffalo pretzel pieces, regular pretzels, some kind of cheese cracker (whales, goldfish, cheeze-its), rye chips, peanuts and/or pecans, and whatever else my dad throws into the mix. I have no idea the quantities of anything he throws in, and I'm probably leaving something out, because he's the only one who can make it right and he doesn't share his recipe! It's a more savory, spicier version of the recipe Chex provides. He only makes it when we're all home for Thanksgiving and Christmas, and it's usually gone the same day it's made.
My favorite holiday recipe is Pinwheel Bread. I make it for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Boil and mash potatoes. Mix in sugar, butter, eggs, vanilla and milk. Put in a 13×9 inch baking dish. For the topping melt butter and mix in remaining ingredients. Sprinkle on top of the potato mixture. Bake 25 miutes at 350 degrees.
My favorite holiday recipe is Rommegrot.
My favorite thing to make during the holidays is pumpkin bread. My family loves it so it's become a sort of tradition to have it.
English Toffee! Don't have the recipe cause it's my mom's but it's delicious!!
Making my granny's chocolate chip cookie recipe is one of the ways we remember her during the holidays!
My favorite Christmas recipe would be a red wine button mushroom dish that takes about 8 hours to make. It's time consuming, but the are well worth it in the end.

My favorite holiday recipe is my grandpa's turkey stuffing that he learned to cook and perfected while serving in an army mess hall on a ship during World War II.
I love my grandmas cream cheese cookies with a little dollop of jam in the middle, so so good! They just melt in your mouth!
I am more of a baker than a cook, and I think my favorite think to bake around the holidays is Pumpkin Bread!
My favorite recipe is Broccoli Rice Cheese Casserole. One of my daughters always asks for it, so it's been my favorite since she makes it. Another recipe I love is Buckeye candy.
My favorite holiday recipe is a dish my uncle used to bring to our Thanksgiving feast. I'm sure there are many variations and names for it but we always referred to it as "Five Cup Salad".
One cup of each of the following is mixed together in a bowl and refrigerated until chilled. I personally always let mine set for several hours because I love how fluffy the marshmallows get. You can also add more or less of any ingredient to suit your taste.
I usually drain the canned fruit but I keep the juices and add some in with the sour cream. It's easy and delicious!
My favorite holiday recipe is Chocolate Oatmeal No-Bake Cookies. It was the first thing I ever made by myself for Christmas and they always take me back to my childhood.
My favorite is my Grandma's carmel roll recipe that I make for Christmas morning!
How can I pick just one thing??? But here goes…my favorite cookie has to be "Mexican Wedding Cakes" or "Russian Tea Cakes"–the little balls made with butter, sugar, flour and nuts, and rolled in powdered sugar when warm-YUM!
Every year, our family has Christmas lasagna, a nice change from the traditional ham & Turkey. However, what makes it special is not so much the food but the memories. Many eons ago, shortly after I joined the family, I began helping my mother-in-law make the Christmas lasagna. We'd spend the day making enough for Christmas, for our freezers, & for gifts. During those days, we forged a friendship that has lasted over 30 years. Now that she is no longer able to help, I share the day with my own daughter, and I pray that one day she will make Christmas lasagna with a daughter or daughter-in-law of her own.
Hmm, my favorite Holiday recipe? this is a hard one since I burn water when I try to cook….you think I'm kidding but I'm REALLY not. I think I'll go with something that's no what most would consider traditional but it was a required part of all of our Holiday meals. My grandmother was first generation American, her parents being from Norway. She lived in Maine, I give you this history to give you just a little bit of insight…Lobster soup was a required menu item and we all looked forward to it every year. (Until I was 13 and discovered how very allergic I am to it 🙁 ) Still, when I think of the Holidays at Grammie's…Lobster Soup is the first thing that comes to mind.
I love to make pumpkin fluff. I eat it with ginger snaps, but my nieces and nephews like to eat it like pudding.
I love to make pecan tarts.
My favorite is homemade Hershey's real chocolate fudge.
I love Peach Kuchen (pie!), my mom's homemade rolls, and swedish pancakes.
Here are the complete recipes!
One of my favorite holiday recipes is home made Fruit Cake. I sometimes start cooking or buying it when it comes out in the stores–October through New Years.

My favorite holiday recipe is Sweet Potatoe Pie.
My favorite holiday recipe would be green bean casserole. It is a family favorite every Thanksgiving.

I have a wonderful Fudge recipe that I only make during the holidays just because I would eat way too much of it and it is too fattening.
Grease 9×9 pan with margarine.
Combine milk and sugar in a heavy saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it boils. Turn heat to low and cook for 10 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
Immediately add chocolate bits, karo syrup, butter, and vanilla.
Stir until chocolate melts and fudge is smooth and creamy.
Stir in nuts or raisins. Pour into 9×9 pan and chill.
Cut into squares before completely hardened.

My favorite holiday recepie is sweet potato casserole.
Hard to choose just one, but a favorite Christmas recipe would be Holiday Double Chocolate Cookies (from Hershey's).

My favorite holiday dessert is upside down pumpkin pie. It's made with vanilla cake mix, pecans, pumpkin, condensed milk, cream cheese, and cool whip.
My family ALWAYS requests an eggnogg recipe, dating back to the 1700's! Families and friends shared the warmth of a spiced eggnog for centuries!
My favorite holiday recipe is roasted butternut squash with onions and rosemary.
I have 2 favorites. We've been celebrating Christmas with my family on Christmas Eve for the last 47 years (since my sister got married.) My husband makes his delicious Homemade Bread Pudding with White Chocolate Sauce. Then, on Christmas Morning, he makes us Homemade Beignets (from scratch) using the Original Recipe from Cafe du Monde in NOLA. Yes, he has spoiled us just a bit!
My Mom's cornbread dressing. She made the best but the lady 2 years she has not been able. She will be 83 in November. I now make the dressing but it's just not as good as my Moms.
Two of my favorite holiday recipes are Pumpkin pie and Baklava!
my favorite is fruit cake.
My favorite holiday recipe is my mother's Newfoundland stuffing.
I love Sweet Potato Casserole with an Oatmeal Crumble! Delicious!
It's difficult to choose a favorite, but one that I have good memories of making a lot growing up is the peanut butter cookies with the Hershey Kiss on top. I remember my mom letting me roll the dough in sugar and put them on the pan, and then put the Kiss on top once they'd just come out of the oven. We only made those cookies at Christmas, and when I see or eat them to this day I always think of those fun memories.
Every year for the holidays I make homemade dinner rolls, fresh out of the oven with butter on them they are the best!!!
That house is beautiful! I love sweet potato casserole on Thanksgiving!!
We always make cranberry apple jello salad.
My family loves my soft ginger cookies. It's generally what I bake in the fall and winter.
My favorite Holiday Recipe is Strawberry Bavarian, made with strawberries, jello and whipped cream!
My favorite holiday recipe is julekaga, a Swedish cardamom bread that my mom makes. She makes two varieties: one with candied fruit peel and one without. I have tried to copy her recipe, but I'm not the bread baker that she is, so I beg her to make some every year.
So many favorites for holidays but start the day with a yummy breakfast casserole with eggs,cheese,meat and crescent rolls. Soooo good!
My favorite is an Overnight, Slow Cooker, Apple Cinnamon Steel-Cut Oatmeal and it's so easy to make!

My favorite holiday meal recipe would be for sweet potato casserole (no marshmallows! ). For dessert, I always liked my great-grandma's sugar cookies the best.
I really love apple pie so I try to squeeze that in next to the pumpkin pie!
There are so many great holiday foods, but one I always enjoyed growing up was peanut butter balls. I've never actually made them myself, but my grandma made them, and I'm pretty sure my mom made them sometimes too. So good!
My favorite recipe is probably my grandmother's almond spritz! They are easy to make and easy to eat! 😉 Thanks for participating in the hunt!
I like to fill baked halves of buttercup squash with homemade applesauce. I just peel, cut up and cook whatever apples we have on hand with a little water or apple cider added to help prevent sticking or burning. I have never added sweetener. My children and grandchildren have grown up that way and they all seem to think mine is the best applesauce ever.
My favorite holiday recipe is an old one that is rare because I don't know anyone outside of my family who has ever heard of it. I did find a version of it on the internet, from an old newspaper. It's monkey bread but NOT the sweet cinnamon roll kind. This one is more like dinner rolls. They do go in an angel food cake pan, and you pull off pieces (similar to the cinnamon one). You also put mashed potatoes in it. So yummy!
I LOVE homemade mashed potatoes. My grandpa taught me that the right way to eat them is topped with corn, and I still eat it that way to this day!
The history of Carnton is definitely interesting, and that is why I love historical fiction. My favorite recipe is most likely green bean casserole or my Mom's homemade apple pies. Yum!
Not really a holiday, but a seasonal food that I love is my grandma's potato salad for summer BBQs. I love it so much. It has eggs and pickles and celery. Mmmm-mmm!
One of my favorite recipes for the holiday is Turkey Mush – a casserole that layers Thanksgiving leftovers. Yum!
My favorite recipe is French Silk Chocolate Pie! I'm craving it right now!
I always have to make my Grandma Sumner Cookies. My grandma's recipe for cutout cookies.
My favorite holiday recipe is a chocolate and peppermint roll. Two of my very favorite flavors!!
My favorite Christmas recipe is cake balls.
Mix and bake cake according to box instructions. Let cake cool then crumble into large bowl. Add tub of frosting and mix together until a moist dough forms. Roll dough into balls about 1 inch in diameter. Put candy melts into a microwave safe container and place in microwave. Set microwave for 30 seconds, stir and continue to heat for 30 second intervals until all of the candy melts have melted. Using a spoon drop cake balls one at a time into the melted candy mixture. Use the spoon to move the ball around in the chocolate then place coated cake ball on parchment paper to finish cooling.
My favorite holiday recipe is green bean casserole!
I have had the MOST FUN reading through everyone's recipes – mouth watering. Thank you so much for stopping by, and for sharing.
Good news! Because my publisher has been generous with giveaway copies, my assistant Renee drew 10 names who will receive a copy of Lady of a Thousand Treasures. I have emailed the winners: Amanda, Brenda, Donna, Karen, Karen, Lauren, Sarah, Donna, Jamie, and Deanna!
Have a wonderful holidays season, baking and cooking!

Japanese cherry blossoms are famous all over the world. In Tokyo, cherry trees ("sakura") start blooming at the end of March until the middle of April. Also, it's the best travel season. One way to enjoy Japanese cherry blossoms is "hanami" (= cherry blossom viewing). Friends, couples and co-workers come together in parks throughout the city and make a picnic under the cherry trees.
In our video, well show you what you need for the perfect "hanami" picnic. Enjoy!!
"Hanami" is a lot of fun. It is also very easy to do because all you need is a picnic blanket and something to eat. Both can be found in small supermarkets called "Conbini". So you don't have to bring a blanket to Japan. Just use a plastic sheet like a local! By the way, most of the plastic sheets are blue (with some green ones popping up lately). Now, I associate blue plastic sheets with "hanami" and actually I like the blue and green with the pink of the cherry blossoms. One mistake I made when I had my first "hanami" was the choice of clothes for that event. It seems like spring but when you actually sit under a tree for a long time, it gets colder and colder… This time, I wore a down coat: perfect choice!
Every year in March I am always waiting for the cherry blossoms to bloom. This is because I want to make a "hanami" picnic! When you visit a famous "hanami" location, you will see many people enjoying their picnics under the trees, drinking sake (rice wine) and eating nice food. I get really excited just by looking at them. My friends and I placed a picnic sheet on the ground, got some tea, rice balls, and snacks and we were ready to go! When I sat on the sheet and looked up, there was just cherry flowers – nothing else! So beautiful! That made me really happy. Of course, the food was great, too. After the main dish, we had a traditional Japanese dessert. We ate dumplings, which are very popular especially in this season. Do you want to know, if they tasted good? Of course!
In one of their songs the South Korean indie band "10cm" ask "Do you like spring?" That's right. Spring is a fantastic season that makes you heart beat faster. Not only in Japan but also in Korea "Sakura" (cherry blossoms) become the center of attention when families, friends and couples go to see them celebrate the beginning of spring. In Korea, we have "Hanami", too. But in Japan, everything is bigger and more even more gorgeous. Here in Japan we bring lots of delicious food and make a picnic under the trees. Because of the many other people around you who do the same, "hanami" picnics have a great atmosphere. I get really excited! Enjoy taking pictures of cherry blossoms and the nice food! It's time to celebrate spring!


Lewis Hamilton maintains his spot at the top of the Power Rankings table, a position he's held since the German Grand Prix back in July, after victory in the Russian Grand Prix. But that by no means tells the whole story. Hamilton admits that Sochi has never been his strongest circuit, but he looked in control for the whole weekend, right up until his team mate stormed to pole position and kept his elbows out at the start to put his marker down for the win. Of course, we all know what happened next but part of the reason for its necessity had come down to a team strategic blunder that had dropped him behind his title rival Sebastian Vettel in the first place. Hamilton made quick work of the German but had stressed his rubber too early, and so the safety net of the switcheroo was employed. Hamilton didn't take any joy from winning in such a manner, but that doesn't take away from how strongly he had turned around his performance on a track at which he'd not won in three years. And when allied to the consistent quality that put him on top of the pile post Hockenheim, his three-race average more than keeps him top of our list.
Max Verstappen continued his exquisite run of form in Russia, putting in a monstrous drive from 19th on the grid to the race lead in a show of channelled aggression and racing perfection. He could so easily have picked up damage or overworked his tyres in his early laps, but on his 21st birthday he drove like a veteran to pick up the 'Driver of the Day' accolade from the F1 fanbase. One wonders what Red Bull could have achieved in Russia had they not been forced into making a strategic engine change to aid their chances in the final races of the year, such was their pace over the course of the Sochi weekend, and Verstappen's race pace suggested he would certainly have been in podium contention had all things been equal. When tied into his Monza and Singapore performances, there was never any question about him holding on second spot. Another outstanding run in Japan, and he could very easily be our new Power Rankings leader by the time we leave Suzuka.
As he rounded the slightly off-cambered Turn 3, inches away from the Haas of Kevin Magnussen, both cars squirreling around for grip, there was never any question as to who would emerge ahead. Despite having to go the long way around, Charles Leclerc had already slotted into fifth position by the time the drivers were lining up for the next turn. The Sauber man is running so high on confidence right now, you'd have been forgiven for thinking he might have had a chance at gunning for Kimi Raikkonen, the man whose seat he's taking in 2019, during the race, but even the Monegasque Magician can't make up for that kind of performance deficit. Russia, coming off the back of another points scoring outing in Singapore, showed just how good Charles Leclerc has become and just what he is able to draw out of a car whose development ceased some time ago. As his midfield rivals continue to benefit from the car updates his Sauber lacks, he somehow always seems to find himself in the mix. And in Russia, as the best of the rest.
Whatever your take on team orders there can be no denying how fabulously Valtteri Bottas drove in Russia. He's the only driver to have qualified in the top three each and every year we've raced in Sochi, and his mastery of the track showed itself once again in 2018 as the quality of the flow and rhythm he is able to find around the circuit forced his team-mate into a rare error in qualifying. It really is the Finn's playground and come the race, Bottas got his elbows out and staked his claim for the win. He'd have had it too but for factors out of his control. It wasn't his fault the team got Hamilton's strategy wrong. It wasn't his fault Hamilton then blistered his tyres. But he paid the price anyway. Sometimes that's just how it goes. One of the highest scorers in Russia and rightfully so, it puts behind him a less than outstanding weekend in Singapore but adds to his brilliant podium in Monza to see him rise up the rankings.
Given the mighty performances of both Leclerc and Bottas and their ascent up the table, to see Ocon drop only one spot reflects that he might easily have stepped up a position this week. Such has been the Frenchman's reaction to the now almost certain hiatus upon which he will be placed in 2019, its unsurprising that few can fathom how and why he's been allowed to slip through the net. And so, for the next five races, expect more of the same. He's intent on going out with a bang and showing everyone just what they're missing. Consistent speed, resilience and fighting spirit, he's been a regular in our barometer of form over the course of the season, and one of the highest regarded drivers in the sport. One wonders how high he can climb before he inexplicably slips off the list completely next season.
Carlos Sainz climbs a spot in our rankings after getting another good score this week to add to his pair of eighth places in Singapore and Monza, having driven the entire Russian contest with a severely damaged car. Whether it was the contact with Sergey Sirotkin or running over the external track limits kerb at Turn 2 on the opening lap that did the damage is unclear, but the mess it made to his floor was sufficient to turn his afternoon into a nightmare. The question marks over that mean his score for the race isn't as high as in recent events, but given it was the first time since Germany that he's finished behind his team mate, his form is still high enough to see him stay in the top 10.
It's a return to the Power Rankings for Daniel Ricciardo after a run of results which had seen his form tail off and the buzz which had surrounded him in the early season somewhat wane. Looking at his results over the past three races, he's had a technical DNF, a sixth in Singapore compared to a second for his team mate, and again finished behind Verstappen in Russia to the tune of some 50 seconds. Now, admittedly, much of that had to do with wing damage he picked up on the very first lap, but it's not exactly the calling card of a great run. Yet it's been the manner in which he has picked himself up and driven through the issues he's experienced that has most impressed our panel, the niggles affecting his results often hiding the performances of the man.
He's back. One of the highest ranked drivers in the early part of the season, Fernando Alonso makes a welcome return to the Power Rankings. Much like Ricciardo, he's had a DNF in Monza to contend with, but his 7th place in Singapore allied to a gutsy drive in Russia where his car looked to be utterly wretched, heave him back up into our panel's good books. We've only got five races left to witness one of the all-time greats, and even without the tools at his disposal to get the results he deserves, his consistent quality in the car is continually evident.
The yo-yo effect of the Power Rankings has hit Pierre Gasly hard in recent weeks, as those around have outscored him with some meteoric drives. But his consistent pace and class in a car whose performance has no seeming guarantee keeps him in the top 10. He's had some horrible recent runs, but has at almost every turn been the man with the pace advantage over his team mate. When they've both finished the race, Hartley has been ahead only twice all season, a measure of just what a job the Frenchman is doing in often trying circumstances.
Sebastian Vettel's recent performances - and in particular Italy - haven't impressed our judges (remember, it's all about performances relative to ultimate potential), and the German pays the price for it by falling out of the rankings for the first time this year. Clamouring to squeeze back into the top 10 alongside the Ferrari driver are the Williams pairing of Sergey Sirotkin – the Russian another fallout this week – and Lance Stroll, as well as Force India's Sergio Perez.

China's new mega-bridge was officially opened today by President Xi Jinping after 9 years of construction.
The 55-kilometre-long structure, which is the longest over-sea bridge in the world, crosses the Pearl River estuary to connect the Chinese mainland to Hong Kong and Macau. It's 20 times longer than the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco.
In one section, the bridge transitions to an underwater tunnel for 7 kilometres to make way for ships to cross and planes to take off from the nearby Hong Kong International Airport.
About 400,000 tons of steel was used in the project, equivalent to eight times the amount used to build the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The structure is supported by pillars embedded in the seafloor, cables hanging from giant towers, and two artificial islands.
According to its engineers, it should be able to withstand a magnitude-8 earthquake, a super typhoon, or a collision with a 300,000-tonne ship.
The project has been criticised for the deaths of 10 workers and its feared impacts on local white dolphins. Only 47 of the animals are still left in the area, down from 188 in 2003.
China is also home to the longest bridge of any kind in the world, the 164-kilometre-long Danyang–Kunshan Grand Bridge, which crosses land and water between Shanghai and Nanjing.


A modern kitchen with electric oven and hob (range style oven), dishwasher, fridge, freezer, microwave, washing machine. There is a tumble dryer located in the large boathouse at the back of the cottage.
A single bedroom located at the front of the property.
A double bedroom with traditional combed ceilings and partial views of the Holy Isle.
A twin bedroom with traditional combed ceilings overlooking the garden and has partial seas views.
A Good Housekeeping Deposit of £150 is required. This will be taken as a deferred payment prior to arrival.

Listen to Lana Del Rey's new album Norman Fucking Rockwell!
The singer also dropped an Attack of the 50 Foot Woman-inspired music video for track 'Doin' Time'
After a month of artwork drops, teaser trailers, and a double video for "Fuck It I Love You" and "The Greatest", the wait is finally over: Lana Del Rey's much-hyped sixth studio album, Norman Fucking Rockwell! is out.
Released today (August 30), the album – a follow-up on 2017's Lust for Life – was produced and co-written by Lana and Jack Antonoff, and features 14 tracks, including songs previewed in recent years such as "Bartender", "Happiness is a butterfly", "How to disappear", and "California".
To coincide with the release, the queen of summertime sadness has dropped an accompanying music video for her cover of Sublime's "Doin' Time", which sees a giant Lana channel the Attack of the 50 Foot Woman through the streets of Los Angeles.
If this wasn't enough of a treat, the singer – who recently professed her love of 17-year-old artist Billie Eilish – will be promoting her new album this weekend in a Norman Fucking Rockwell! ice cream truck that will roll out "up and down the coast" over Labour Day weekend. "Anywaysssssss going to have a couple ice cream trucks going up and down the coast this weekend. U can get some popsicles and vinyl if u see this little lime. Steve Berman is driving," she announced on Instagram.
Full tracklist below:
"Norman Fucking Rockwell"
"Mariners Apartment Complex"
"Venice Bitch"
"Fuck it I Love You"
"Doin' Time"
"The Next Best American Record"
"Happiness is a Butterfly"

Virgin olive oil is the healthiest fat option for the liver, study finds.
Consuming too much fish oil can increase the risk of serious liver disease, a study suggests.
Both fish oil and sunflower oil were linked to harmful long-term changes and ageing effects in the liver.
The end result was non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (Nash) – a dangerous inflammatory condition that can lead to cirrhosis and liver cancer.
Fish oil rich in omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D is widely considered one of the most beneficial superfoods, warding off heart disease, helping to preserve healthy brain function, and protecting against inflammatory disorders.
The World Health Organisation recommends eating one to two servings of oily fish per week, and millions of people take daily fish oil or omega-3 supplements.
Oily fish include salmon, mackerel, sardines, trout and herring.
Scientists in Spain compared the liver effects of three key types of dietary fat – virgin olive oil, sunflower oil and fish oil.
Only olive oil proved to be relatively harmless as it accumulated in the liver over time.
Lead researcher Professor Jose Quiles Morales, from the University of Granada, said: "The alterations caused by the long-term consumption of sunflower and fish oils make the liver susceptible to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, a very serious disease that may act as a catalyst for other liver diseases such as cirrhosis and liver cancer.
Nash becomes more prevalent with age, affecting just 5% of teenagers, 39% of adults aged 40-50, and more than 40% of people older than 70.
A battery of different tests conducted on rat livers found that sunflower oil induced fibrosis, gene suppression and high levels of oxidation.
Fish oil intensified the oxidative damage associated with ageing, impaired mitochondria – energy-generating bodies within cells – and altered relative telomere length.
Telomeres are protective caps on chromosomes that can influence biological ageing and cancer.
The research appears in the Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry.

Un conversor de interfaz gigabit (GBIC) es un estándar para transceptores, definido por primera vez en 1995 y comúnmente utilizado con Gigabit Ethernet y canal de fibra durante algún tiempo. Al ofrecer una interfaz eléctrica estándar intercambiable en caliente, un solo puerto gigabit puede admitir una amplia gama de medios físicos, desde cobre hasta fibra óptica monomodo de onda larga, en longitudes de cientos de kilómetros.

Una variación más pequeña del GBIC llamada transceptor conectable de factor de forma pequeño (SFP), también conocido como mini-GBIC, tiene la misma funcionalidad pero en un factor de forma más pequeño. Anunciado en 2001, dejó obsoleto en gran medida al GBIC.

Apelación
El atractivo del estándar GBIC (y de los transceptores intercambiables en caliente en general) en los equipos de red, a diferencia de las configuraciones de interfaz física fija, es su flexibilidad. Cuando se utilizan varias tecnologías ópticas diferentes, un administrador puede comprar GBIC según sea necesario, no por adelantado, y pueden ser del tipo específico necesario para cada enlace. Esto reduce el costo del sistema base y le da al administrador mucha más flexibilidad. Por otro lado, si un switch tendrá principalmente un tipo de puerto (especialmente si ese tipo de puerto es de cobre), comprar un conmutador con ese tipo de puerto integrado será más económico y ocupará menos espacio por puerto.

Estándares
El estándar GBIC no es propietario y está definido por el comité de factor de forma pequeño en el documento número 8053i. La primera publicación de la propuesta fue en noviembre de 1995. Se hicieron algunas correcciones y adiciones hasta septiembre de 2000. Robert Snively de Brocade Communications fue editor técnico. Los colaboradores originales fueron AMP Incorporated, Compaq Computers, Sun Microsystems y Vixel Corporation.

Chow tests assess the stability of coefficients β in a multiple linear regression model of the form y = Xβ + ε. Data are split at specified break points. Coefficients are estimated in initial subsamples, then tested for compatibility with data in complementary subsamples.
h = chowtest(X,y,bp) returns test decisions (h) from conducting Chow tests on the multiple linear regression model y = Xβ + ε at the break points in bp.
h = chowtest(Tbl,bp) returns test decisions using the data in the tabular array Tbl. The first numPreds columns are the predictors (X) and the last column is the response (y).
h = chowtest(___,Name,Value) uses any of the input arguments in the previous syntaxes and additional options specified by one or more Name,Value pair arguments. For example, you can specify which type of Chow test to conduct or specify whether to include an intercept in the multiple regression model.
[h,pValue,stat,cValue] = chowtest(___) additionally returns p-values, test statistics, and critical values for the tests.
Conduct Chow tests to assess whether there are structural changes in the equation for food demand around World War II.
Load the U.S. food consumption data set, which contains annual measurements from 1927 through 1962 with missing data due to the war.
For more details on the data, enter Description at the command prompt.
Suppose that you want to develop a model for consumption as determined by food prices and disposable income, and assess its stability through the economic shock through the war.
Measurements are missing from 1942 through 1947, which correspond to World War II.
Apply the log transformation to each series.
εt is a Gaussian random variable with mean 0 and standard deviation σ2.
Identify the indices before World War II. Plot log consumption with respect to the logs of food price and income.
Data relationships appear to be affected by the war.
Conduct two break point Chow tests at 5% level of significance. For the first test, set the break point at 1941. Set the break point of the other test at 1948.
h1941 = 1 indicates that there is significant evidence reject the null hypothesis that the coefficients are stable when the break points occur before the war. However, h1948 = 0 indicates that there is not enough evidence to reject coefficient stability if the break point is after the war. This result suggests that the data at 1948 are influential.
Alternatively, you can supply a vector of break points to conduct three Chow tests.
By default, chowtest displays a summary of the test results for each test when you conduct more than one test.
Using the Chow test, assess the stability of an explanatory model of U.S. real gross national product (GNP) using the end of World War II as a break point.
Load the Nelson-Plosser data set.
The time series in the data set contain annual, macroeconomic measurements from 1860 to 1970. For more details, a list of variables, and descriptions, enter Description in the command line.
Several series have missing data. Focus the sample to measurements from 1915 to 1970.
Collect the model variables into a tabular array. Position the predictors in the first three columns, and the response in the last column.
Select the index corresponding to 1945, the end of World War II.
Using 1945 as a break point, conduct a break point test to assess whether all regression coefficients are stable.
h = 1 indicates to reject the null hypothesis that the regression coefficients between the subsamples are equivalent.
In addition to returning a test decision, you can request that a test summary display in the Command Window.
Conduct a Chow test to assess the stability of a subset of regression coefficients. This example follows from Test Consumption Model for Structural Change.
Load the U.S. food consumption data set.
Identify the indices before World War II.
Consider two regression models: one is log consumption onto log food price, and the other is log consumption onto log income. Plot scatter plots and regression lines for both models.
A clear break in food price elasticity exists between subsamples before and after the war. However, income elasticity does not appear to have such a break.
Conduct two Chow tests to determine whether there is statistical evidence to reject model continuity for both regression models. Because there are more observations in the complementary subsample than coefficients, conduct a break point test. Consider the elasticities in the test only. That is, specify 0 or false for the intercept (first coefficient), and 1 or true for elasticity (second coefficient).
The first summary suggests to reject the null hypothesis that price elasticities are equivalent across subsamples at 5% level of significance. The second summary suggests to not reject the null hypothesis that income elasticities are equivalent across subsamples.
Consider a regression model of log consumption onto the logs of price and income. Conduct two break point tests: one that compares price elasticity across subsamples only, and another that compares income elasticity only.
For both tests, there is not enough evidence to reject model stability at 5% level.
Simulate data for a linear model including a structural break in the intercept and one of the predictor coefficients. Then, choose specific coefficients to test for equality across a break point using the Chow test. Adjust parameters to assess the sensitivity of the Chow test.
Specify four predictors, 50 observations, and a break point at period 44 for the simulated linear model.
Form the predictor data by specifying means for the predictors, and then adding random, standard Gaussian noise to each of the means.
Add a column of ones to the predictor data.
Specify the true values of the regression coefficients and that the intercept and the coefficient of the second predictor jump by 10%.
Specify a 2-by-5 logical matrix that indicates to first test the intercept and second regression coefficient, and then test all other coefficients.
The null hypothesis for the first test (Coeffs(1,:)) is equality of the intercepts and the coefficients of the second predictor across subsamples. The null hypothesis for second test (Coeffs(2,:)) is equality of the first, third, and fourth predictors across subsamples.
Create innov as a vector of random Gaussian variates with mean zero and standard deviation 0.2.
Conduct the two break point tests indicated in Coeffs. Because there is an intercept in the predictor matrix X already, specify to suppress its inclusion in the linear model that chowtest fits.
The Chow test correctly rejects the null hypothesis that no structural breaks exist at period bp for the intercept and the second coefficient.
Correctly failed to reject the null hypothesis for the other coefficients.
Compare the break point test results to the results of the forecast test.
In this case, the inferences from the tests are equivalent to those for the break point test.
Response data for the multiple linear regression model, specified as a numObs-by-1 numeric vector.
Combined predictor and response data for the multiple linear regression model, specified as a numObs-by-numPreds + 1 tabular array.
The first numPreds columns of Tbl are the predictor data, and the last column is the response data.
Break points for the tests, specified as a positive integer or a vector of positive integers.
Each break point is an index of a specific observation (row) in the data. The element bp(j) specifies to split the data into the initial and complementary samples indexed by 1:bp(j) and (bp(j) + 1):numObs, respectively.
NaNs in the data indicate missing values. chowtest removes missing values using list-wise deletion. Removal of rows in the data reduces the effective sample size and changes the time base of the series.
If bp is a scalar, then the number of tests, numTests, is the common dimension of name-value pair argument values. In this case, chowtest uses the same bp in each test. Otherwise, the length of bp determines numTests, and chowtest runs separate tests for each value in bp.
Example: 'Intercept',false,'Test','forecast' specifies to exclude an intercept term from the regression model and to conduct a forecast test.
Indicate whether to include an intercept when chowtest fits the regression model, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Intercept' and true, false, or a logical vector of length numTests.
true chowtest includes an intercept when fitting the regression model. numCoeffs = numPreds + 1.
false chowtest does not include an intercept when fitting the regression model. numCoeffs = numPreds.
Type of Chow test to conduct, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Test' and 'breakpoint', 'forecast', or cell vector of character vectors of length numTests.
chowtest directly assesses coefficient equality constraints using an F statistic.
Both subsamples must have more than numCoeffs observations.
chowtest assess forecast performance using a modified F statistic.
The initial subsample must have more than numCoeffs observations.
For details on the value of numCoeffs, see the 'Intercept' and 'Coeffs' name-value pair arguments.
Flags indicating which elements of β to test for equality, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of a logical vector or array. Vector values must be of length numCoeffs. Array values must be of size numTests-by-numCoeffs.
chowtest ignores values in the first column of 'Coeffs' for models without an intercept.
For example, suppose the regression model has three predictors (numPreds is 3) in a linear model, and you want to conduct two Chow tests (numTests is 2). Each test includes all regression parameters in the linear model. Also, you want chowtest to fit an intercept in the linear model for the first test only. Therefore, Intercept must be the logical array [1 0]. Because there is at least one model for which chowtest fits an intercept, Coeffs must be a 2-by-4 logical array (numTests is 2 and numCoeffs is numPreds + 1). The elements of Coeffs(:,1) correspond to whether to test the intercept irrespective of its presence in the model. Therefore, one way to specify Coeffs is true(2,4). For the second test, chowtest does not fit an intercept, and so it ignores the value true in Coeffs(2,1). Because chowtest ignores Coeffs(2,1), Coeffs = [true(1,4); false true(1,3)] yields the same result.
The default is true(numTests,numCoeffs), which tests all of β for all tests.
Nominal significance levels for the tests, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Alpha' and a numeric scalar or vector of length numTests. All elements of Alpha must be in the interval (0,1).
Flag indicating whether to display test results in the command window, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Display' and 'off' or 'summary'.
chowtest expands scalar and character vector input argument values, other than 'Display', to the size of numTests. Vector values and 'Coeffs' arrays must share a common dimension, equal to numTests.
If any of bp, Intercept, Test, or Alpha are row vectors, then all output arguments are row vectors.
Test decisions, returned as a logical scalar or logical vector of length numTests.
The null hypothesis (H0) of the Chow test is that the coefficients (β) selected by Coeffs are identical across subsamples.
1 indicates rejection of H0.
0 indicates failure to reject H0.
p-values, returned as a numeric scalar or vector of length numTests.
Test statistics, returned as a numeric scalar or vector of length numTests. For details, see Chow Tests.
Critical values for the tests, returned as a numeric scalar or vector of length numTests. Alpha determines the critical values.
Chow tests assess the stability of the coefficients (β) in a multiple linear regression model of the form y = Xβ + ε. Chow (1960) introduces two variations: the break point and forecast tests .
The break point test is a standard F test from the analysis of covariance. The forecast test makes use of the standard theory of prediction intervals. Chow's contribution is to place both tests within the general linear hypothesis framework, and then to develop appropriate test statistics for testing subsets of coefficients (see Coeffs). For test-statistic formulae, see .
Chow tests assume continuity of the innovations variance across structural changes. Heteroscedasticity can distort the size and power of the test. You should verify the innovations-variance-continuity assumption holds before using the test results for inference.
If both subsamples contain more than numCoeffs observations, then you can conduct a forecast test instead of a break point test. However, the forecast test might have lower power relative to the break point test . Nevertheless, Wilson (1978) suggests conducting the forecast test in the presence of unknown specification errors .
You can apply the forecast test to cases where both subsamples have size greater than numCoeffs, where you would typically apply a breakpoint test. In such cases, the forecast test might have significantly reduced power relative to a break point test . Nevertheless, Wilson (1978) suggests use of the forecast test in the presence of unknown specification errors .
The forecast test is based on the unbiased predictions, with zero mean error, which result from stable coefficients. However, zero mean forecast error does not, in general, guarantee coefficient stability. Thus, forecast tests are most effective in checking for structural breaks, rather than model continuity .
To obtain diagnostic statistics for each subsample, such as regression coefficient estimates, their standard errors, error sums of squares, and so on, pass the appropriate data to fitlm.
