Lecture Topic: Is It 1939 Yet?
"Boys Go To Baghdad…"
Politics / By Gwynne Dyer
By Gwynne Dyer
It's impossible to say whether the United States will attack Iran before President George W. Bush leaves office in seventeen months' time, because nobody in the White House knows yet either. It is easy to predict what would happen if the US did attack Iran, however, and the signs are that the hawks in the White House are winning that argument.
The most alarming sign is the news that the Bush administration is about to brand the Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a "terrorist organisation." This is a highly provocative step, for the IRGC is not a bunch of fanatical freelances. It is a 125,000-strong official arm of the Iranian state, parallel to the regular armed forces but more ideologically motivated and presumably more loyal to the ruling clerics.
Declaring the Revolutionary Guards a terrorist organisation is not just a way for the US government to vilify Iran as a terrorist state. It is one of the key policy disputes between those in the administration, notably Secretary of State Condoleezza Rica and Defence Secretary Robert Gates, who think an attack on Iran would be unwise, and those around the vice-president, who think it is essential.
Almost everybody in the Bush administration believes that Iran is seeking nuclear weapons in order to dominate the region and to attack Israel. (Others are less certain.) The war party, led by Dick Cheney, also believes that the clerical regime in Iran would collapse at the first hard push, since ordinary Iranians thirst for US-style democracy — and that the attack must be made while President Bush is still in office, since no successor will have the guts to do it. Even after all this time, the administration's old machismo survives: "The boys go to Baghdad; the real men go to Tehran."
So what will happen if Cheney & Co. get their way? The Iranian regime would not collapse: President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is now unpopular due to his mishandling of the economy, but patriotic Iranians would rally even around him if they were attacked by foreigners. What would collapse, instead, is the world's oil supply and the global economy.
Major-General Yahya Rahim Safavi, commander-in-chief of the Revolutionary Guards, explained how that would be accomplished in a speech on 15 August (though he made no direct reference to the US threat). "Our coast-to-sea missile systems can now reach the length and breadth of the Gulf and the Sea of Oman," he said, "and no warships can pass in the Gulf without being in range of our coast-to-sea missiles." In other words, Iran can close the whole of the Gulf and its approaches to oil tanker traffic, and if the US Navy dares to fight in these waters it will lose.
Despite the huge disparity in military power between the United States and Iran, this is probably true. Over-committed in Iraq and Afghanistan, the United States cannot come up with the huge number of extra troops that would be needed to invade and occupy a mountainous country of 75 million people. The US can bomb Iran to its heart's content, hitting all those real and alleged nuclear facilities, but then it runs out of options — whereas Iran's options are very broad.
It could just stop exporting oil itself. Pulling only Iran's three and a half million barrels per day off the market, in its present state, would send oil prices shooting up into the stratosphere. Or it could get tough and close down all oil-tanker traffic that comes within range of those missiles — which would mean little or no oil from Iraq, Saudi Arabia or the smaller Gulf states either. That would mean global oil rationing, industrial shut-downs, and the end of the present economic era.
Can those missiles do all that? Yes, they can. The latest generation of sea-skimming missiles have mobile, easily concealed launchers, and they would come in very fast and low from anywhere along almost 2,000 kilometres (well over 1,000 miles) of Iran's Gulf coast. Sink the first half-dozen tankers, and insurance rates for voyages to the Gulf become prohibitive, even if you can find owners willing to risk their tankers.
It's very doubtful that US air strikes could find and destroy all the missile launchers — consider how badly the Israeli air force did in south Lebanon last summer — so Iran wins. After a few months, the other great powers would find some way for the United States to back away from the confrontation and let the oil start flowing again, but the US would suffer a far greater humiliation than it did in Vietnam, while Iran would emerge as the undisputed arbiter of the region.
Many, perhaps most senior American generals and admirals know this, and are privately opposed to a foredoomed attack on Iran, but in the end they will do as ordered. Vice-President Dick Cheney and his coterie don't know it, preferring to believe that Iranians would welcome their American attackers with glad cries and open arms. You know, like the Iraqis did. And Cheney seems to be winning the argument in the White House.

The PiGlow costs just $12.99 (from Amazon) (note: just increased to $20.37!!) so this will be one of the cheaper ways to implement ISS-Above.
The video below will give you some idea of how the LED / Color displays tell you how long until the next pass of the ISS.
This is what the LED's do.
Then… when the overflight is happening the LED color display will start flashing ALL DIFFERENT COLORS. Initially – as the ISS is on the horizon and far from you it will flash slowly but as it gets closer and higher in the sky it will start flashing/blinking faster and faster.

The Drake Group has released a position statement today that proposes an educational alternative to "athlete employees." Drake Group President Gerald Gurney, stated, "Intercollegiate athletics is at a crossroads on the issue of paying college athletes. Should collegiate athletics be a mini-version of the NFL and NBA? See Drake's Position Statement for a viable alternative.
In light of the current national debate about transfer rules in intercollegiate athletics and other restrictions on the eligibility of college athletes, The Drake Group believes there is a need to acknowledge and define the basic rights of college students who participate in intercollegiate athletics.

Netflix Faces Copyright Infringement Lawsuit Over 'Burning Sands' Movie
Netflix Faces Copyright Infringement Lawsuit Over 'Burning Sands' Movie September 30, 2017
News WirePosted on September 30, 2017
Spelman Alumna Sharon Toomer Named NABJ Executive Director
Streaming network Netflix is being taken to court by a man who says its original film 'Burning Sands' was a copyright infringement of his 2014 book of the same name detailing the trials and tribulations of a Greek underground pledging process.
Netflix Accused of Stealing 'Burning Sands' Story in New Lawsuit
Netflix original film Burning Sands is at the center of a lawsuit from an author who says the pic is based on a book he wrote about hazing at black fraternities. Al Quarles Jr.
Al Quarles, a Millersville University alumnus, says Howard University alum and 'Burning Sands' co-writer and director Gerard McMurray plagiarized elements of his self-published manuscript.
Among the plot points Quarles says are nearly identical are the unusually small number of men pledging the fraternity, one of them dying because of hazing and the recital of an Edward Guest poem about perseverance — all centering on a theme of "the tragic irony of the fact that these young black men put themselves through this brutal process in order to join an elite club of networked, successful black male professionals."
http://www.ebony.com/entertainment-culture/burning-sands-gerard-mcmurray
Quarles, a member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Inc., is suing damages and any profits associated with the release of the film.

Why do so many people get depressed as they get older? It seems the answers are many.
As people age, loss becomes an unwanted companion. Older people lose the suppleness of their youth, their sense of invulnerability, often their soul mates. They lose the ease with which they once viewed their health and the certainty that they still matter to the world. They are no longer defined by their work and their children and often are unsure what does define them. It is not uncommon for elders to feel adrift, like boats at sea.
What they gain is not always welcome. With the freedom of grown children, comes the reality that children, nieces, nephews and grandchildren can be thousands of miles away. Other unwanted visitors also tag along. They have scary names like arthritis, osteoporosis, heart valve replacement, stroke and cancer. Boredom also visits. Days once spent changing the world now are spent by many observing it.
Yes, aging can be difficult. But it doesn't have to be this way. The keys to successful aging are involvement, curiosity, reinvention and perspective. If children, grandchildren and friends are at a distance, it is important to keep actively involved. If visiting often in person is not possible, there is the internet, skype and the telephone. Taking on volunteer or part-time work, learning new things, taking up a hobbies, spending time with friends, teaching, writing, traveling also make a difference. Perhaps you no longer do what you did for years, but so what? Now you do something new. The important thing is to do something. Something that matters to you. This is what I mean by reinvention.
Probably the most important ingredient of successful aging is perspective. You have a choice. You can view yourself as old with few options or as an elder with wisdom and endless curiosity. You can live fully and richly or you cam give up. The choice is yours.
Naive, you say? No, it's not. But to get to this healthy perspective takes a good deal of work and some battling through depression. Along the way you may need a therapist or some psychiatric medication such as an antidepressant or something for anxiety. This is not something about which to be embarrassed. Remember, if you have a headache, you take aspirin. This is no different.
One other note for the people who love those who are growing older. As people age, they don't always put their depression into words. Often, it is physical complaints such as fatigue that get them to doctors. Be on the lookout for signs. It is often that a small intervention early on avoids bigger problems later.


Luka Doncic has set the NBA alight, producing rookie numbers we haven't seen since LeBron James.
After dropping 21 points, nine rebounds and 10 assists in yesterday's 122-119 win over the New Orleans Pelicans, the Slovenian sensation was just one rebound short of becoming the youngest player in NBA history to record a triple-double.
According to Basketball Reference, it was the third time in five games that Doncic recorded a stat line only achieved by James among NBA teenagers (via ESPN) and despite the difference in their playing styles, the numbers and immediate impact of James and Doncic as rookies is undeniable.
"I mean, it's amazing," Doncic said of the comparisons to James. "You all know that he's my idol, so it's just amazing to be there.
As the Mavericks transition out of the Dirk Nowitzki era, Doncic looks set to carry on as the franchise cornerstone for many years to come and Nowitzki believes the 19-year-old is more than ready to take on that role.
So far this season Doncic is averaging 19 points, 6.7 rebounds and 5.1 assists through 32 games, numbers which look very similar to James' rookie campaign numbers of 20.9 points, 5.5 rebounds and 5.9 assists.
Can Doncic keep it up and win Rookie of the Year as well? So far he's leading the pack and he doesn't look like slowing down anytime soon.

Babs vs. Carly: Choice Will Be a Crucial Difference
Calbuzz caught up with Barbara Boxer Tuesday, at the tail end of Day One of her old-school campaign flyaround, and was intrigued to find that her biggest applause line came on the issue of abortion.
As a new Field Poll showed Boxer with a slight 47-44% lead over Republican nominee Carly Fiorina, the Democratic incumbent peppered the speeches on her "Jobs for California" tour, which focused mainly on the economy, with references underscoring stark contrasts on social issues between her and Fiorina, including her own staunch pro-choice position and the Republican's extreme pro-life stance.
No pro-life candidate has won at the top of the ticket in California in a race for governor or Senate in more than two decades. And the new poll shows a considerable gender gap which suggests that Boxer may be benefiting from her stand on choice compared to Fiorina's, even before the issue is driven home to voters.
Overall Boxer trails Fiorina, 42-49% among men, but leads 51-40% among women. But here's how that comes to be: Boxer runs 19 points better among Democratic women (79-12%) than among Democratic men (70-22%); nine points better among Republican women (12-81%) than Republican men (8-86%) and 10 points better among independent women (49-35%) than independent men (46-42%).
In other words, Boxer is running better among women than she is among men across all party lines.
At a time of 12.7 percent unemployment in the state, the political purpose of Boxer's 36-hour, nine-city barnstorm was to claim credit for saving or creating seve ral hundred thousand jobs* because of her vote for the 2009 stimulus bill, and to claim that more are on the way with gauzy promises about development of a new green energy industry.
But we've long argued that abortion and other values issues could be critical in the Senate race, despite the conventional wisdom that economics is all that matters in 2010. That's why we thought the pro-choice Tom Campbell would have made a tougher Republican general election opponent for Babs, except for the inconvenient fact that he can't win a GOP primary.
"I do think she's out of the mainstream," Boxer said of Fiorina in an interview.
Speaking Tuesday night in Santa Barbara (World Headquarters of the Calbuzz Department of Alliteration, Syntax and Sales) Boxer drew polite applause at an outdoor rally of local Democrats as she reprised her talking points spiel about jobs for the fourth time that day.
But the most spontaneous, emotional ovation came when she let loose an oldie but goody line about protecting abortion rights: "This election is about who's going to stand up for a woman's right to choose."
Answering Calbuzz questions in the candidate's van on the way back to her Gulfstream III charter, Boxer elaborated on the issue, saying on the day before the new Field Poll came out that she'll be helped among "independents and Republican women" by the hard line, pro-life stance of Fiorina. The Hurricane has said during the campaign that "I absolutely would vote to overturn Roe v. Wade if the opportunity presented itself."
"Her view is so radical," Boxer said. "It's more radical than any other Republican woman in the Senate who opposes choice."
Boxer's comments also touched on a constellation of other, non-economic issues which offer her opportunities to exploit Fiorina's positions among independents and moderate Republicans:
–Palin – Boxer expressed delight over Fiorina's endorsement by the right-wing former GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, which she views as a crucial signifier for voters who may not know much about iCarly: "It's very important," she said of the endorsement. "I'm glad she made that endorsement. The endorsement speaks volumes."
–-Climate change – Boxer emphasized her strong opposition to the proposed suspension of AB 32, California's landmark greenhouse gas emissions legislation, which Fiorina views as "job killing" government over-regulation. Hurricane Carly also has expressed doubts about the science of climate change and characterized as "worrying about the weather" Boxer's focus on the issue. "My opponent confuses climate and the weather," said Babs.
–Gun control – Both in the interview and in her speech, Boxer recalled Fiorina's Second Amendment purist pronouncement in the primary: "If you are on a suspected terrorist watch list, she supports your right to buy a gun." And she contrasted her support of California's assault weapons ban with Fiorina's opposition to the measure.
Beyond these issues, she also attacked Fiorina over her support for expanded offshore oil drilling, another issue on which Boxer's stance may gain support from independent and moderate voters.
"She's with the 'drill baby drill' crowd – that's why she got the endorsement of Sarah Palin."
According to the Field Poll, Boxer's favorability among voters has taken a serious hit in recent months — it's now 41% favorable and 52% unfavorable, not much changed from 38-51% in March but down considerably from 48-39% in January. At the same time, Fiorina's favorability has improved to 34-29%, from 20-22% in March and 16-18% in January.
Moreover, the proportion of voters who approve of Boxer's performance as Senator has dropped lower than it's been since February 2006 and now stands at 42% approve and 48% disapprove. These are not good numbers. Her approval rating among Republicans is 11-80%; among Democrats just 66-20% and among independents a negative 36-40%.
On the other hand, in a match-up with Fiorina, Boxer is — for the moment at least — holding her own among independents and moderates. While Boxer leads 75-17% among Democrats and Fiorina carries Republicans 83-10%, it's Boxer who is leading among independents with 47-39%.
Likewise, while Boxer has 84% of the liberals who account for 23% of the voters and Fiorina has 80% of the conservatives who make up 36% of the electorate, Boxer leads by a healthy 53-34% among the moderates who comprise 41% of the voting population.
The Field Poll surveyed 1,005 likely voters, including a random sub-sample of 357 voters, June 22-July 5. The margin of error for questions asked of all voters is +/- 3.2% and for questions asked of the sub-sample (including favorability) it is +/- 5.5%. Calbuzz has been refused the opportunity to subscribe to the Field Poll and has obtained the results elsewhere.
The mail's comin' on the stagecoach tomorrow: As widely reported, Babs on her statewide odyssey unveiled some pretty good lines responding to Carly's now-famous, snide and snotty open mic dis of Boxer's hair: "I've decided that if everyone in California who's ever had a bad hair day votes for me, I'll win. I'm going for the bad hair vote."
Too bad it took nearly four weeks to come up with a snappy rejoinder, putting her in a tie with Jerry Brown for the Geezer Response Time team award for campaign 2010
*(Upon passage of the stimulus bill, aka the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, Boxer put out a press release that predicted the measure would save or create 400,000 jobs in California. She now acknowledges that she doesn't know for sure how many jobs it's generated. At times she cites a figure of 150,000, which she attributes to the governor's office; at others she uses a figure of 340,000 contained in a report issued last April by the Council of Economic Advisers).

I had no sooner returned to Denmark from Kauai, than had to turn right around, head to the airport and get on a plane to the Netherlands. Last weekend I was teaching my Green Goodness cooking classes in Amsterdam to celebrate spring and all verdant edibles. The icing on the cake was being invited by chef Schilo van Coevorden at the Conservatorium Hotel to collaborate on a tasting menu for his restaurant, Tunes. After working together in his spectacular kitchen, we came up with three dishes that would comprise the backbone for the tasting menu, as well as the meal served at the official launch and press event.
My favorite dish of all was a rice-less risotto. Chef Schilo is very much into taking seasonal vegetables and making "rice" out of them, simply by cutting them into grain-sized pieces. I had done this before at my raw food restaurant, but I had never tried cooking it before. Intrigued, we set out to make rice from white asparagus with a green sauce from blanched green asparagus and nettle. Combined with caramelized shallots, olive oil and some sheep's milk cheese, it was a creative, light take on one of my favorite comfort foods.
Since I have an undying passion for wild leeks, also known as ramps, I chose to use those instead of the nettles in my version of the sauce. Ramps are popping up all throughout the forest floor here in Denmark, so they are an in-season treat that I love to forage for. Because they are from the leek family, ramps have an unmistakable allium flavour – stronger than cultivated leeks, but milder than garlic. You can use the whole part of the plant, but I like using just the leaves (easier to harvest!) in pesto, chopped up into salads, or folded into eggs. In this recipe, use just the leaves and save the little white bulbs for grilling, or use in place of onions or shallots in cooked dishes.
This time of year we are entering new nutrient territory! That means fresh, seasonal foods with a whole host of vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients that we haven't been exposed to over the long winter months.
Ramps contain quercetin, a plant pigment (flavanoid) that not-so-coincidentally helps combat seasonal allergies. It also acts as a powerful anti-oxidant, combating damaging free radicals that cause disease. Quercetin is anti-inflammatory, so it particularly helpful for arthritis and asthma sufferers. For anyone wishing to improve heart health and prevent atherosclerosis, high cholesterol, and circulation problems, include quercetin-containing foods in your diet (including onions, cruciferous vegetables, berries, and many nuts and seeds).
Asparagus, both white and green varieties, contain vitamin K. This family of chemically related substances collectively allows your blood to clot normally, protects your bones from fracture and postmenopausal bone loss, helps prevent calcification of the arteries, and provides possible protection against liver and prostate cancer. Research continues to evaluate the possibilities of vitamin K's role in protecting against oxidative damage, regulating the body's inflammatory response, and how it supports the brain and nervous system.
Begin by preparing the sauce. Snap off and discard the woody ends of the green asparagus, wash them well and chop them into similar size pieces. Rinse the ramps well, removing any soil.
Bring a pot of water the boil, add the asparagus and simmer for 1 minute. Turn off the heat and add the ramps, submerging them in the water for 1 more minute, just to take the raw edge off. Do not overcook! Immediately drain the asparagus and ramps reserving the cooking liquid in a separate bowl. Rinse the vegetables under very cold water, or submerge them in an ice bath to halt the cooking process. Reserve 2-3 pieces asparagus for garnish.
Add the cooked asparagus, ramps and remaining sauce ingredients (except for the salt and cheese) to a blender and process on high until smooth. Add cheese and salt, taste for seasoning. If necessary, add more cooking liquid to achieve a thinner sauce.
Prepare the asparagus "rice". Peel the white asparagus from the base all the way to the tip. Using a mandoline, a julienne peeler/slicer, or your excellent knife skills, create long, thin vertical strips. Line them up, then cut them across to create very small "grains", each about the size of a grain of rice. Set aside. Mince shallots.
In a frying pan heat a little ghee or olive oil (if using olive oil make sure to cook over low heat!), add the shallots and a pinch or two of sea salt. Cook until the shallots have nicely caramelized, about 7-10 minutes. Add the white asparagus rice and stir to combine with the shallots. Cook for 5 minutes until slightly softened. Add the green sauce and fold into the rice, warming it. Continue to add the asparagus/ramps cooking liquid that you reserved, or just water, to thin out the consistency. The texture should be like regular risotto: loose and creamy, not sticky and dry nor too wet and soupy. Make sure it is hot all the way through. Season to taste, add more cheese if desired (sooooo gooooooood).
Plate the risotto and sprinkle with lemon zest, white pepper, more cheese if desired, and olive oil. Add a couple pieces of asparagus to the top and serve immediately.
I just made this for the first time with vegan parmezan cheese made of nutritional yeast and cashews. It was FANTASTIC! What a great recipe! Will definately be making this more often while asparages are in season. A big thank you for the inspiration!
Is there something I could use as a substitute for cheese? Maybe a cashew cheese? This looks delicious but I am not currently eating dairy.

Hi, I want to subscribe for this weblog to obtain most up-to-date updates, therefore where ccan i do itt please help out.
Just made a modified version with swede (as I couldn't source white asparagus) and also added sicilian green olives. It was a hit with the fam, as were your brownies, so a massive thank you!
Oh, that looks fantastic! Could I also do a riceless saffron risotto? Hmm, but I will try it out tomorrow, sounds delicious!
Oh wonderful, I just love the sound of this dish. Thank you!
I bought a sweet little green onion shredder in Japan last month. It has four sharp blades on a handle. I'm sure it would be the perfect tool to slice the asparagus into long strips. I'll try it, maybe you will have to plan a Japan trip!
Yum, this dish looks so nourishing and love the brilliant color of the sauce. Delicious!
What a lovely way to use fresh spring vegetables.
This was really nice. I added some nutmeg because it goes really well with the asparagus.
Hi, I really want to try this recipe, however cannot find white asparagus anywhere! Could it work with green asparagus for the "rice"? I know it won't look the same, but I've never had white asparagus so not sure if it'll taste completely different to what it's supposed to.
I have been trying to change over my pantry to more grains and seeds. I have lots of moths in our kitchen that I am trying to keep out of our food. Could you please tell me where you got your glassware that you keep grains in. I was watching your perfect quinoa video and at the beginning you have jars with gentle looking clasps…that the big clunky ones I have seen before. Any thoughts? Thanks and I love your blog posts.
it is probably delicious. Still, you can't call it risotto without rice. Risotto means rice in Italian so it virtually has no meaning. It's like saying pasta without pasta, apple pie without apples, potato chips without potatoes and so on.
It's with asparagus rice, like you see cauliflower rice used in place of grains. So the asparagus virtually is the "rice". Like a veggie burger instead of a burger. It is still a burger without the beef. Etc, etc. You see this a lot in the plant based world, other versions of classic dishes.
that sounds divine! i go and collect the ramps (we call it Bärlauch, which translates to "bear leek") in the nearby forrest. the only thing you got to be careful about is to not mistake them for lilies of the valley, because they're leaves look very much alike and they are poisonous. but i think they wouldn't smell that "garlicky", does someone know?
I have always been kind of scared when it comes to making risotto because of all the cheese but this recipe is just so amazing!
Love the sound of this, I've never seen ramps here in Australia and white asparagus like what you've featured are also very rare. I love the idea behind it all though and look forward to substituting with other vegetables for a healthy alternative to risotto. Thanks for sharing.
What a stunning dish! It looks so much like rice! I love that you combined both white and green asparagus in such a unique way!
This looks absolutely divine! I love riceless rice dishes, but haven't tried a risotto yet. This just screams spring! I'll have to make it just as soon as I can find white asparagus.
Another gorgeous recipe Sarah (with photos to boot)!
As a fellow Canadian living in Europe, I've been trying to wrap my head over whether or not wild garlic is the same as wild leeks. Germans are obsessed with Bärlauch which translates into English as wild garlic or bear's garlic. I'm afraid that I left Canada before everyone went wild over ramps (wild leeks) and so I couldn't put my taste buds' memory to the test. However, after a little research I learned that the two are actually different species.
Wild garlic is Allium tricoccum and wild leeks are allium ursinum. Their leaves are nearly identical, but the two have different coloured stems with the former having white stems (like in your photos) and the latter having a purple/pink hued stem. You are much more knowledgeable about edible plants than I am so let me know if this rings true!
This looks lovely and I've recently heard (UK folk) that white asparagus is being cultivated in Herefordshire and will be available in supermarkets for the first time this year!
Have you got any recommendations for a salty-creamy alternative to the cheese for vegan cooks?
Oh, you call that "wild leeks"? Here in the UK it's known as wild garlic, and if anyone can't find it in the woods near them, Riverford sometimes have it for delivery with their veg boxes. Delicious stuff, and this recipe looks wonderful – white asparagus is a bit hard to come by here, though.
Wow, this looks and sounds incredible. It's winter hear in Australia, I wonder if it will work as well with cauliflower and broccoli? Any other winter veg substitutions would be greatly appreciated!
I love ramps and this sounds so cool and healthy! I can't wait to give it a try!
Wow. This looks amazing. What a cool idea!
This is absolutely gorgeous! I can't get ramps where I live 🙁 but would love to try this with something similar!
this looks absolutely fantastic. i didn't even think this was possible.
I have never seeing a rice-less risotto, and I think it is genius. I cannot wait to try this out. So inspiring.
Innovative as ever. Those are some hefty asparagus and beautiful ramps!
Ooh, I adore asparagus. It's impossible to find white asparagus here in the States (Americans just don't "get" it, I guess) so I'll have to find a substitute… any suggestions? I'm leaning towards parsnip.
What I love so much about your recipes is how inventive they are without being tedious and difficult. Thanks so much for sharing!
So cool!! this looks super awesome!
What a fantastic concept- and fabulous spring recipe!!
That is amazingly original! I have to try this soon. It is such a nice "in season" dish.
I love the sound of this – I have been experimenting with rice-less risottos quite a bit (to have something lighter to eat on still-cold spring evenings) – the two most successful recipes so far were a chickpea risotto and a cannelini bean risotto. Both the chickpeas and the beans tasted wonderful after being prepared the same way as a traditional risotto but I have yet to make a risotto using your technique of cutting a vegetable into grain-sized chunks – very intriguing (and the photos look delicious!).
Oh my, this is absolutely brillant! I love that you've made a riceless risotto with a new vegetable, one I never would have imagined using! It is different and dashling – definitely need to try this, and luckily I have a forrest completely stuffed with rams, right in my back yard!!
Sadly white asparagus is nearly impossible to get hold of here in London – no one grows it (I work for the farmers' market so I've inquired widely). I did once see it a local deli, imported from France. Will have to check if they've got it again, because I would love to give this recipe a try.

The Lightning have to find a way to clear cap space in order to sign Point. They already have $71,289,998 committed to the cap next season & that only includes 4 defensemen & 10 forwards. Complicating matters is the fact that Palat, Johnson & Killorn all have full no-trade clauses. Callahan also has a modified no-trade clause. The Lightning are unable to just send those teams to a bottom feeder with tons of cap space. If the Lightning are unable to get any of those players to waive their no-trade clause, the Lightning would be forced to trade Miller and/or Gourde in order to sign Point & round out their roster. They are in a tight spot.
Larkin out, is it Zadina time?


Hey stampers! Here are two quick and fun cards you can create and make exactly your way with the Bookcase Builder photopolymer stamp set.
Truly the hardest part is choosing which accessories you are going to use. I did one with a Bermuda Bay card base, and the other with Wisteria Wonder. I thought they were really easy to make for any type of Baby Shower card, Announcement card, or Welcome Baby gift card!
I thought another cute way to make this card, would be to stamp all your objects in Smokey Slate, and then the one baby item in Pink Pirouette, Soft Sky, So Saffron or Wild Wasabi to show how much light, life and love a baby brings to a sometimes dull world.
I hope you like these two sweet cards and you will give them a try as well!


I am away from blogging till 6th December 2009 because of my Delhi trip. I will be back from 7th December.
Subroto Bagchi delivered this speech to the Class of 2006 at the IIM, Bangalore on defining success. This was the first time Subroto Bagchi shared the guiding principles of his life with young professionals.

People are trying to explore live-in relationships and society is trying to learn to accept such unconventional ties. But more than forty years ago there was this gutsy girl from Gujranwala and a dreamy boy born in Chak No: 36, near Lyallpur, who defied all convention and chose to live together in a brick-and-stone house lined with dreams just because they loved each other. What is more, this bond of love stood firm in the face of storms and it retained its intensity and beauty until the dying day.
No, I am wrong here for even death has not the power to do them part. One is talking, of course, of Punjab's celebrated poet Amrita Pritam and her lifetime companion painter Imroz.
Mandolin is one of the melodious instrument. But when I searched on internet about leaning Mandolin based on the Indian notations I was disappointed by the search results.

Following is the Mandolin notation for Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Dha Ni Sa.


It appears fashion designer , Toyin Lawani has responded to Bobrisky's shade .
Toyin who celebrated her 37th birthday on Friday with a lavish concert , was indirectly shaded by male cross-dresser , Bobrisky .
Toyon Lawani has responded saying she doesn't associate with losers.
I Don't Associate with losers ,Reason why is this, can be poor&still be a winner ,like Bolanle the pepper girl, she's not rich but she's got various skills at creating so she's a winner ,like My physically challenged Girls Gladys/mercyline who can't speak nor hear& I trained them to be baddass tailor/hair Stylista, they create clothes for wizkid,tiwa etc they are winners.
They just needs capital to Blow bigger ,if you don't have any skills you are a loser,losers Have nothing to offer ,losers need winners to Shine& losers focus on winners who don't even see them or think of them, losers need to lie to make themselves feel good or for people to think they are on A High horse .
Their Talent is to lie to belong..


What do you do when you find yourself in a situation where you need the text from the image file which cannot be edited. Do you start typing the text all over, or do you start thinking of the kind of magic you will use to convert it from JPG to Word? Many of us may not know it, but yes!! The magic does exist to transform documents from any format, including JPG to Word. This magic is called Optical Character Recognition (OCR).

2021, Action-Adventure, ★½, Directed by Guy Ritchie, Film, Wrath of Man	by Andrew Wickliffe 3 June 2021 3 June 2021
When did Guy Ritchie get so enthusiastic about his actors' performances? Wrath of Man is a lot of things—and a little much—but it's a middling cross between revenge and heist picture where the cast gets a great showcase. Sometimes too much of one, with the script way too talky in the first act. Man's based on a French movie (though I've never seen opening titles speed through acknowledging it's a remake like Man, the card is up for maybe eight seconds), with director Ritchie sharing co-screenplay credit with Ivan Atkinson and Marn Davies. None of them deserve many pats on the back, as there's constantly terrible dialogue because someone wants to make it feel gritty with distinct dialogue. You know, kind of like Heat.
Obviously, it's impossible to do an armored truck robbery in L.A. story without acknowledging Heat a little and Ritchie gets it out of the way early. He goes on to whiff the big heist sequence (with the bad guys masked in body armor and invincible against any guns but their own). After promising it's going to be great for the entire movie, with over-the-title top-billed but really it's an ensemble by the end Jason Statham showing up at an armored car service, looking for work. L.A.'s had a rash of armored truck robberies lately—I mean, it's so widespread even Post Malone would do it—and this company in particular had a bad robbery where some people got killed. Is Statham sure he wants the job? Of course, because he's there to figure out who's behind the armored truck robbery. Why?
Watch the movie. Enjoy watching Statham kicking ass while working with lovable old timer Holt McCallany, job weasel Josh Hartnett, and interested lady coworker Niamh Algar. Man's too intentionally shitty in its pursuit of gritty to be entertaining; it's all homophobic and misogynistic jokes amongst the staff—even though everyone's a terrible person in one way or another so we don't mind when they're put in danger or die. It's Statham's movie, he's the only invulnerable one. Him and the guy he's after.
At the armored car depot, the acting's all solid. McCallany, Hartnett, Algar, Eddie Marsan doing what seems to be a spoof of an accent as the boss; they're all good. They're ready and able for when Man need elevate them.
But it never elevates them because it's got a fractured narrative (courtesy the original French movie), with time jumping forward, back, back more, forward, forward more. Ritchie kind of plays with it but once you find out it's not original it's just a little too ostentatious. It'd have been nice for Ritchie to do something more than assemble a decent cast and film them all right… but he really doesn't. He coasts along on technical competence and performance and then he really screws up the third act. It's a complete disaster. While still fine. It's just a bad fine. If it weren't for the actors, it'd be a fail.
The film doesn't just reveal Statham's involvement in the prologue armored car robbery, it eventually moves to the perspective of the armored car robbers, looking at two different gangs of them who might plug into one of the other time lines for a narrative "surprise." When the gimmick is the point of the gimmick, there's no real accomplishment, just not failing.
And again it doesn't fail because of the actors. There's good small work from Jeffrey Donovan, Laz Alonso (Mother's Milk from "The Boys"!), Darrell D'Silva, and Babs Olusanmokun. There are some mediocre performances, then some bad ones. There's a charmless, desperate stunt cameo (well, there are two but only one matters) and then Scott Eastwood. Eastwood ends up playing a big part in the movie after being ancillary for much of it and sadly Ritchie does not get Eastwood to stop squinting like anyone's going to think he's his dad. He's got a few all right moments, but he's mostly dull. There are much worse performances, but Eastwood's an opening titles billed star whereas no one else is as important. It's too bad.
Especially given the third act's not very good. And is predictable. Wrath of Man ends of being all too predictable because of its indifference and cynicism. It's just a combination revenge and heist picture with competent muddy cinematography from Alan Stewart and a not-incompetent, intentionally wholly unpleasant, not ineffective score from Chris Benstead.
It's fine. It was silly to expect more, even though almost everyone's obviously capable of doing more.
Maybe not the screenwriters. Almost everyone else. Even Eastwood.
Well, maybe just maybe Eastwood.

And now I feel like rewatching the ending again!
Clearly we have entered a parallel universe, because during the public/fan screening of the final episode of Queen In Hyun's Man (which was awesome btw), Ji Hyun Woo confessed in front of fans and family that he likes Yoo Inna (who apparently deflected). Apparently, pandemonium ensued. Not surprising, seeing the bizarre attitudes to star dating in k-entertainment world.
Meeeeep. It's like a real life kdrama!


There is one thought out of which a moderately cheerful man can always make some satisfactory sunshine, if not a sufficiency of it. It is the thought of the bright populous heaven. There is joy there at least, if there is joy nowhere else. There is true service of God there, however poor and interested the love of Him may be on earth. Multitudes are abounding in the golden light there, even if they that rejoice on earth be few. At this hour it is all going on, so near us that we cannot be hopelessly unhappy with so much happiness so near.
How great is the Lord Jesus, and how great is His patience, that He who is adored in heaven is not yet avenged on earth! Let us, beloved brethren, consider His patience in our persecutions and sufferings; let us give an obedience full of expectation to His advent; and let us not hasten, servants as we are, to be defended before our Lord with irreligious and immodest eagerness. Let us rather press onward and labour, and, watching with our whole heart, and stedfast to all endurance, let us keep the Lord's precepts; so that when that day of anger and vengeance shall come, we may not be punished with the impious and sinners, but may be honoured with the righteous and those that fear God.
Put not your trust in yourself, or in anything created; it is all a mere nothing, which can never satisfy the heart of man, made as it is for God. But never mistrust Him Who contains every good thing in Himself, and Who mercifully fills you with disgust for all else, in order to bring you forcibly back to Himself.
I hear no one boast, that he hath a knowledge of the Scriptures, but that he owneth a Bible written in golden characters. And tell me then, what profiteth this? The Holy Scriptures were not given to us that we should enclose them in books, but that we should engrave them upon our hearts.
Christ came to reveal what righteousness, to which the promises [of the prophets] belong, really is; and so long as this, though shown by Christ, is not seen by us, we may call ourselves Christendom as much as we please, the true character of a Christendom will be wanting to us, because the great promises of prophecy will be still without their fulfilment. Nothing will do, except righteousness; and no other conception of righteousness will do, except Christ's conception of it: his method and his secret.
Was born, and those false deities struck dumb.

A Spider Wasp dragging a paralysed Huntsman Spider to a burrow (Image: C. Heenan).
Spider Wasps (Family: Pompilidae) are, as their name suggests, a family of Wasps that prey on Spiders (Order: Araneae). There are four subfamilies, including Ceropalinae, Ctenocerinae, Pepsinae, and Pompilinae, where coloration and wing appearance vary greatly among the many species. They are solitary Wasps that are native to Australia, and despite using spiders as prey for their young, the adults themselves feed on nectar from a variety of flowers.
The female of the species will generally start by digging into soft and sandy soil to prepare a nest chamber for their larvae, using long spines on their front legs. They will then search the area for a spider, which can be twice as heavy as the female. On finding a suitable prey, the Wasp will sting it and inject it with venom to paralyse it so it can drag it back to the burrow that has been prepared. Some species will bite the legs off particularly hairy spiders to make them easier to manoeuvre. An egg will then be laid on the body of the paralysed spider and sealed in the chamber. Spider wasps will also generally protect their nests by putting dead ants into the outermost chamber, as the chemicals will help to deter predators.
Once the egg hatches, the larvae has a pre-prepared meal on which to feed before pupating within the cell, following five instar stages. However, the size of the prey will determine whether the larvae develops as a male or a female (larger prey = large female, small prey = small males).
There are some behavioural differences within the family of Wasps, whereby some will not use a burrow but rather leave the spider and egg where it lays. There are also some species that will steal spider prey from other Wasps, known as klepto-parasitism.
The more you know, hey?!

Czech Republic – New Beginnings in a Historic Land
Czechoslovakia was formed after World War I from parts of the defeated Austria-Hungary Empire. During World War II, it was taken over by Germany and in 1945 the army of the Soviet Union freed the country.
On January 1, 1993 Czechoslovakia split peacefully into two independent countries. The eastern section became Slovakia. The western provinces, Bohemia and Moravia, became the Czech Republic. Playwright Vaclav Havel became the first president of the independent country.
The country is known for its picture-book towns, its polka dance, and the architecture of its capital city. Prague is the capital of the Czech Republic.
The Czech Republic is bordered by Slovakia, Austria, Germany, and Poland. In the southwest is the large Bohemian Forest. The country's main river is the Elbe. Most lakes in are manmade. The largest artificial lake is Lake Rozmberk, which covers 500 hectares. Snezka Mountain is the highest point. Its height is 1602 m.
One of the Czech Republic's most famous topographical features is the Moravian Karst, a highland area in southern Moravia where the erosion of limestone hills over time has created a dramatic landscape of caves and canyons.
The official language is Czech, a Slavic language closely related to Slovak and Polish.
The most important crops are sugar beets, wheat, barley, potatoes, and corn. Many factories manufacture iron, steel, aluminum, fertilizers, and cement. Cotton, wool, and synthetic fibers are also produced. The Czechs make beautiful glass and porcelain objects. Some people make pretty lace and others make delightful wood carvings.
Novelist Franz Kafka, composer Antonin Dvorak, and poster artist Alphonse Mucha are among the many Czechs who have contributed to the arts.
Prague is nicknamed the City of 100 Spires because of its many church steeples. It lies on the banks of the Vltava River. The city center has many historic buildings, bridges, and museums. Prague Castle was first built in the 9th century and it is now the home of the president. At the center of the Old Town is the Old Town Square, where the 600- year-old Tyn Church is found. Powder Tower is the old city gate.
Charles University was started in 1348 and is the oldest university in central Europe.
Czech beer has a long and interesting history. The first brewery was built in 1118. At the moment, the most productive and modern factories in the world are in the Czech Republic!
The Czech Republic became a member of NATO in 1999. Also, the country has been part of the European Union since May 2004.
Jaroslav Heyrovsky became the first Czech Nobel laureate. This happened in 1959 for high achievements in the study of polarography and electroanalytical chemistry.
Sugar cubes were invented in the Czech Republic in 1843.

Have you planned a cruise to take you away during the long winter? It's a great way to break up the cold months, sailing away to warmer climes on a luxury boat. However, before you do that, you need to get to the port and find somewhere to park your car. Here's why our Miami port parking is the best option around.
While some vacationers decide to start looking for parking once they get down to Miami, you know that this isn't the best way to find a place for your car and be ready for your cruise. If you go with the first parking company that has space when you come to Miami, you won't know what their security measures are like, or whether they'll take good care of your car. Plus, you won't be getting the best prices as you'll be paying the rates for last-minute parking. Why do that and put more stress on yourself when you're trying to get to the port on time?
If you're looking for Miami parking, the best thing to do is to book it in advance. This way you'll be able to do your research and know you are finding the best deal. There's no better feeling than heading to port with the assurance that your car has a safe spot waiting for it.
As with most vacation options, the sooner you book your parking, the better deals you'll get. Now's the time to go online to check availability at our parking lots and get the best price on your parking.
Parking is easy to get booked and arranged, too. All you need to do is go online and click 'reserve your parking space.' You'll be asked to put in the dates you'll need parking for and given a quote for how much it will be. Once you agree and pay for the parking, you are all done! Then you can sit back and relax without worrying about a thing.
Many people drive a long way to get to Miami and get on their cruise, if you are one of those people or even if you are not, you want to start relaxing as soon as you can. We know this, and that's why we work hard to make parking as simple as possible. Once you've parked your vehicle, we'll help you with your bags and get you on our complimentary shuttle bus that takes you straight to the port. We even offer you a drink to enjoy on your way, so your vacation starts as soon as you reach our parking lot.
When you come back from your cruise, we're ready for you too. We'll get you on our shuttle again and bring you back to your car without any hassle. After all, the last thing that you need after a soothing vacation is difficulty returning to your vehicle. With our help, you can collect your car and be on your way quickly.
Many cruise goers worry about leaving their cars in the hands of someone else while they're away. You don't want anything to happen to it, especially when it's your pride and joy. If you book the right Miami port parking though, your car will be as safe as can be when you're off, enjoying yourself.
Here at Safe Cruise Parking, we know that safety is paramount which is why we designed our parking lots with security in mind. With 24/7 monitoring by security cameras, you always know there's a friendly eye on your car. Additionally, we employ and station well-trained security professionals around the clock, so you know your vehicle is in good hands.
Now you know exactly why you should book your cruise parking with us. We have the best prices in Miami and provide high security for your car while you're away. We'll even throw in extras, such as shuttle transport, to make your vacation a little bit easier. Get in touch with us and see what deals we can offer you, today.

Biografia
Dopo gli studi presso la facoltà teologica di Litoměřice è stato ordinato presbitero il 26 giugno 1976. Ha operato come vicario parrocchiale a Česká Třebová, amministratore a Písečná, Ústí nad Orlicí, come privato dell'autorizzazione statale per il sacro ministero (1984-1990) e come vicario generale della diocesi di Hradec Králové.

Nel 1984 fu imprigionato dal regime comunista allora al potere in Cecoslovacchia per violazione dell'articolo 178 del codice penale per aver ostruito la supervisione statale sulle chiese; il fatto venne segnalato da Amnesty International nel 1985. Kajnek fu poi rilasciato con la condizionale, ma gli venne vietato lo svolgimento di attività pastorali. Il suo caso venne incluso nel report dell'ONU del 1987 sui diritti umani in Cecoslovacchia.

Per alcuni anni lavorò nella Corpo forestale dello stato e, in seguito, nell'edilizia. Fu poi riammesso allo svolgimento di attività pastorali e divenne amministratore delle parrocchie di Chomutice u Horic, Lázně Bělohrad e Pardubice. Il 4 novembre 1992 fu nominato da papa Giovanni Paolo II vescovo titolare di Acque di Dacia e vescovo ausiliare di Hradec Králové. Ricevette l'ordinazione episcopale il 12 dicembre 1992 dal vescovo Karel Otčenášek.

A partire dal 1998 è delegato vescovile per le vocazioni nonché per la pastorale dei carcerati. Il 10 novembre 2004 è stato nominato prevosto della Cattedrale di Hradec Králové. Dal 12 aprile 2010 al 14 maggio 2011 è stato amministratore della diocesi di Hradec Králové.

Quantifying Melbourne's "Foodprint": A scenario modelling methodology to determine the environmental impact of feeding a city
Journal Title: ECONOMIA AGRO-ALIMENTARE
Author/s: Seona Candy, Graham Mark Turner, Jennifer Sheridan, Rachel Carey
Year: 2018 Issue: 3 Language: English
DOI: 10.3280/ECAG2018-003007
As cities grow and climate change intensifies, challenges related to the sustainable supply of food to urban areas are increasing. This is a particular issue for Melbourne, Australia's fastest growing city. Although food consumption accounts for a significant proportion of environmental impact, there is little or no data quantifying what it takes to feed a city to help city governments plan for the future. This paper presents the methodology and findings of an investigation into the environmental impact of feeding Greater Melbourne by quantifying its 'foodprint' - the land and water required, and food waste and greenhouse gas (ghg) emissions generated. It forms part of a larger project, Foodprint Melbourne, investigating the sustainability and resilience of Melbourne's foodbowl. The foodprint was calculated for 2014 and 2050, using the Australian Stocks and Flows Framework (asff). It was found that it takes 758 gigalitres/yr of water and 16.3 million hectares/yr of land to feed Melbourne, with over 907,537 tonnes/yr of edible food waste and 4.1 million tonnes/yr of ghg emissions generated. With projected trends in consumption patterns, efficiencies of production methods, land degradation and climate change impacts, in 2050 1598 gigalitres/yr of water (111% increase) and 32.3 million hectares/yr (98% increase) will be required, with 7.4 million tonnes/yr of ghg emissions generated (80% increase).
