It's Another Critically Dry Year After February Brings Little Rain
The peak of California’s rainy season is supposed to run from December through February. Now that period's come to an end, we have a decent idea of where we’re at in terms of water across the state.
In short: It doesn’t look good for either the flammability of local landscapes or our big stores of water already stressed by previous dry years.
“It’s a critically dry year,” said Chris Orrock, public information officer with the California Department of Water Resources.
“We’re probably in one of the bottom ten driest years on record for the state,” he said.
The more rain that falls locally, the wetter our hills, and the longer we’re likely to stave off serious fire concerns. Those fire concerns haven’t really gone away, with elevated fire weather still a problem when strong Santa Ana’s roar through.
Look at the rain totals and you’ll see why. Downtown Los Angeles has received less than half of the rain it should've had by the end of February. And Ojai, a perennial fire concern, has only received about 25% of expected rainfall. Similar conditions are present through much of the region.
March 1st update: 2020-2021 "wet season" in California remains dismally dry in most places. In fact, wide swaths of both NorCal & SoCal are well under 50% of average precipitation. It has also been a warmer than average winter overall, despite some cold interludes. #CAwx #CAwater pic.twitter.com/17afoE9spt— Daniel Swain (@Weather_West) March 1, 2021
When it comes to water availability, it's the snowpack in the Sierra Nevada, the Colorado River Basin, and our above-ground reservoirs that we should look at.
While the storm in late January brought with it a good dumping of snow, we’re still only at 61% of normal snowpack across the Sierra. The Central and Northern portions are doing a bit better than the Southern Sierra, which is dragging the overall average down.
As of last week the Metropolitan Water District said that the snowpack in the Upper Colorado River Basin – which melts, runs down the Colorado River and is fed to L.A. – is sitting at 87% of normal.
As for our reservoirs, while a wet 2019 replenished them and kept them topped up through a dry 2020, we’re now starting to see them drop.
Shasta, the largest federally managed reservoir is at only 68% of its historical average, while Oroville, the largest state run reservoir is at 55%.
The likelihood we’ll get enough precipitation to catch us up through March is thin with the next two weeks looking exceptionally dry.

California's Groundbreaking Clean Fuel Laws Mean Big Changes For Polluting Trucks And Trains. Why It MattersThe rules passed by the state Air Resources Board are the first of their kind — anywhere — and will likely have ripple effects, particularly in Southern California communities that have some of the dirtiest air in the nation.
It's partly because the sun’s approaching solar maximum.
An onslaught of velella velella washed up on shore this weekend on Southern California beaches. The blue jellyfish-like creatures were swept by the winds of California's recent storms.
Who knows when we'll see such vibrance again in this recently drought-choked land?
It's glorious grunion run season, which means thousands of small, silver fish take to California beaches to mate.

SCIO, NY, USA U.S. Marines CPL, K CO, 3D BN, 7TH MAR, (RCT-7), 1ST MARDIV, TWENTYNINE PALMS, CA BETHESDA 04/22/2004
Jason Dunham was born November 10, 1981 in Scio, New York and lived his entire life in Scio, graduating from Scio High school in 2000. Jason joined the Marine Corps in 2000 after graduating from high school. After completing recruit training, he served as a Security Force sentry at Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay, Georgia.
On November 10, 2006, at the dedication of the National Museum of the Marine Corps, President George W. Bush announced that Corporal Dunham would be awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions on April 14, 2004 near Husaybah, Iraq. Jason became the first Marine to receive the Medal of Honor for actions in Iraq, and the first Marine to receive the Medal of Honor since the Vietnam War. President George W. Bush presented the Medal of Honor to Jason’s family during a ceremony in the East Room Thursday, January 11, 2007.
As a Corporal in the United States Marine Corps, Jason served with 4th Platoon, Company K, 3rd Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment (3/7), 1st Marine Division, I Marine Expeditionary Force, during Operation Iraqi Freedom. While fighting with his unit in Karabilah, Iraq, an enemy soldier threw a grenade that landed next to him. Rather than allow the grenade to explode and kill or injure not only himself but several other Marines in the area he sacrificed himself and dove on top of the grenade. When it exploded Dunham was seriously injured and died eight days later. He was 26. Shortly beforehand, Marine Corps Commandant Michael Hagee presented Dunham with the Purple Heart. General Hagee, Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps John L. Estrada and Dunham’s parents were at his bedside when he died. He was buried in Fairlawn Cemetery, Scio New York.
In addition to the Medal of Honor and his other military decorations Dunham has also received other honors including being the namesake of a United States Navy destroyer, a post office and a Marine Corps barracks.
On March 20, 2007, the Navy reported that a new Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer would be named the USS Jason Dunham, in his honor. On March 23, 2007, Navy Secretary Donald Winter officially announced the naming of the USS Jason Dunham (DDG 109). The keel was laid at a ceremony on April 11, 2008, at Bath Iron Works in Bath, Maine. The ship was christened on August 1, 2009, with Dunham’s mother, Debra, acting as the ship’s sponsor. A piece of Dunham’s helmet will be encased in the mast.
On April 11, 2007, The Periscope, the base newspaper for Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay, Georgia, reported that the Marine Corps Security Force Barracks is to be renamed the Corporal Jason Dunham Barracks in late June 2007. Dunham had served at the base from 2001-2003.
In 2004, Michael M. Phillips, staff writer for the Wall Street Journal, wrote an article summarizing Dunham’s actions that appeared on page A1, column 1 of the May 25 Journal. In 2005, Phillips published, through Broadway Books, The Gift of Valor: A War Story, which told Dunham’s life story.

Designed by Wayne Leek and Robert Kelley, the Remington Model 1100 was introduced in 1963 as a successor to the Model 58 and Model 878 gas operated shotguns. The Model 58 had supplanted the recoil operated Model 11-48, which retained the long recoil action of John Browning's original design, present in the Model 11 and the Browning Auto-5. Upon its introduction in 1963, the Model 1100 replaced the Model 58 and Model 878, and later replaced the Model 11-48 as well.
The Model 1100 was an improvement over previous semi-automatic shotguns. All models of the series are gas operated with a mechanism that noticeably reduces recoil. As of 1983, it was the best selling autoloading shotgun in U.S. history, in dollar terms.
A plain version of the Model 1100 in 12 gauge, named the Sportsman 12 Auto, was sold in stores such as Target, Kmart, and Walmart in the mid-1980s, along with the Sportsman 12 Pump, which was a plain Model 870. The Sportsman 12 Auto had less costly birch stocks and less rollmarking on the gun's receiver. These were simply cosmetic differences, and all Model 1100 parts in 12 gauge are fully interchangeable, including barrels and receivers. Both Sportsman 12 offerings were discontinued in 1987, concurrent with the introduction of the semi-automatic Model 11-87 and the pump action Model 870 Express.
In 2011, Remington introduced the Model 1100 Competition Synthetic. A 50th Anniversary highly decorated version was introduced in 2013. Over four million Model 1100 shotguns have been produced. Several variations of the series—in 12, 20, and 28 gauges, and .410 bore—remain in contemporary production.
The Model 1100 bleeds off gases to operate the action through ports in the barrel near the fore end. The gasses then drive a steel action sleeve that fits around the magazine tube and connects to the bolt carrier to the rear, ejecting the spent shell. A fresh shell is released from the magazine, which trips the carrier release, and the action spring in the stock pushes the bolt forward, picking up the fresh shell and loading it into the chamber. With modifications to the trigger group to regulate feed and firing, the design is basically a gas powered Model 870. The Model 1100 can fire any 2+3⁄4-inch (7.0 cm) shell without adjustment in the standard models, and both 2+3⁄4 and 3-inch (7.6 cm) Magnum shells can be used interchangeably on the Magnum versions.
The Model 1100's carrier release is located on the underside of the firearm, which is unlike a number of other semi-automatic shotguns such as the Mossberg 930 or the FN SLP whose carrier releases are located on the side.
Through the years, there have been numerous limited ions and commemorative models.[example needed]

3M™ Hookit™ Clean Sanding Disc 236U features a 3M proprietary multi-hole pattern that evacuates dust better than 5- or 6-hole products — dramatically increasing disc life. The design achieves an ideal balance between the abrasive surface and dust extraction holes to maximize cut and optimize the life of the disc.
- Precise multi-hole pattern means excellent dust extraction and eliminates the need to align holes
- Open coat and load-resistant coating prevents clogging to optimize cut and product life
- 3M™ Hookit™ discs are easy to change and reuse, maximizing utility for the life of the disc
- Aluminum oxide grains cut faster and last longer than traditional garnet
- Strong, C-weight paper backing supports aggressive sanding
|Diameter||3 in||76.2 mm|
|Maximum Speed||15,000 rpm|
What makes the 3M™ Hookit™ Clean Sanding Disc 236U better than other sanding discs?
The 3M™ Hookit™ Clean Sanding Disc 236U is designed with precision-formed abrasive grain technology that lasts longer and provides a consistent finish. Its open coat construction resists clogging for a more efficient sanding process.
How many discs come in each case of the 3M™ Hookit™ Clean Sanding Disc 236U, P150 C-weight, 3 in, Die300LG?
Each case contains a total of 250 discs - there are inner cases within the package containing as much as fifty per item.
Is the backing of the disc tough enough for heavy-duty applications like automotive bodywork?
Yes, Definitely! The X-weight cloth backing provides excellent durability and resistance to tears or punctures even under extreme conditions making it perfect for versatile use such as preparing surfaces before painting or removing rust from metal.
The 3M™ Hookit™ Clean Sanding Disc 236U features the 3M™ Hookit™ attachment system, which allows for fast and easy disc changes. This means that you can use the disc again and again for the extent of the abrasive life. The strong, C-weight paper backing on our 3M™ Hookit™ Clean Sanding Disc 236U supports aggressive sanding and minimizes edge wear.
These clean sanding discs are excellent for blending and finishing on aluminum and carbon steel, as well as woodworking applications for heavy and medium stock removal and finishing on hardwoods, softwoods, and composites. They also work well on primer, paint, sealers, topcoats, fiberglass, and plastics.
Sandpaper discs cut better and last longer when dust isn't loading the cutting surface of the abrasives. Reducing dust is easier than ever with 3M clean sanding discs. An open coat means the abrasive grains have space between them so that dust escapes through the spaces rather than loading the cutting edge of the grains. The load resistant coating allows the disc to continue cutting even when sanding softwoods, paints, and other materials that would, otherwise, clog the disc and hinder sanding ability.
3M's proprietary multi-hole pattern evacuates dust from the disc at a high rate. This hole design doesn't even require alignment of holes with the disc pad (which is attached to a random orbital sander and sold separately), making disc changes quick and simple. The 3M™ Hookit™ attachment system uses a hook and loop design that makes disc changes fast and easy. All of this adds up to improved productivity and reduced material consumption.

Chris Brown’s Charge of Felony Battery Dropped!!!
Chris Brown’s charge of felony battery dropped. After allegedly giving a photog a sucker punch, Brown’s case has been dismissed. Looks Like Chris Brown is off the hook, this time.
States Attorney Determines There Was Insufficient Evidence To Prosecute
As reported by TMZ, Brown was arrested in Florida last year, after an altercation with a photographer at AJA Channelside nightclub in Tampa. Though Chris Brown was booked to appear at the club, Brown became agitated at a photographer, according to management at the club.
After attempting to stop him from taking his picture, allegedly the photographer kept right on snappin’. Apparently, Chris Brown had had enough. Brown entered a DJ booth and lost it after the photog kept at it.
Later, at a concert in West Palm Beach where Chris was performing, officers were waiting for him to finish. After he was done, he was taken in and booked. Shortly after, he posted a $2000 bail.
Evidently, there were some credibility issues on the side of the claimant, since the charges have now been dropped. Information coming from the States Attorneys Office told TMZ –
“After a thorough review of the facts and information from the alleged victim, our office determined there was insufficient evidence to prosecute.”
Even if Chris is happy about this turn of events, he better keep his fingers and his toes crossed. Although he has yet to be charged, he still has an open rape investigation ongoing in France.

Joaquin Phoenix and Philip Seymour Hoffman in The Master.
The Master is the latest film from writer/director (and critic's darling) Paul Thomas Anderson. This is his first movie since There Will Be Blood in 2007. It tells the story of the relationship between two men in the early 1950s. Philip Seymour Hoffman plays Lancaster Dodd, an L. Ron Hubbard type guru in the early stages of developing his own quasi religion/philosophy (think Scientology). Joaquin Phoenix is Freddie Quell, an itinerant alcoholic and ex-sailor who served in WWII.
Anderson seems to favor stories that feature vile and/or violent protagonists. This movie is no exception. Freddie Quell is a hopeless drunk. He doesn't give a shit about anyone but himself. He is also quick to anger and prone to violent outbursts. This makes him the perfect test case for Dodd (or the Master as he is called by his acolytes) who the movie clearly paints as a charlatan.
Through intense therapy sessions designed to help people recall events from their previous lives, which the Master calls “processing”, he hopes to enable people to rediscover their true perfect selves (or some such gobbledegook).
In Quell, the Master sees the perfect guinea pig. He's not very bright, but he is loyal and malleable (up to a point anyway). Quell sticks around for the free room and board as well as the excitement of being part of something larger than himself. Although you never get the feeling he truly buys the Master's teachings.
Amy Adams plays the dutiful but outspoken wife of the Master. She is skeptical about Quell's motivations right from the start but remains loyal to her husband's vision of trying to help this troubled man. Her role is definitely in support of the two men who dominate the movie.
In intensely dramatic scene after intensely dramatic scene Hoffman and Phoenix go toe to toe in an acting demonstration of the highest order. Look for both men to receive Oscar nominations come January. The biggest joy the movie provides is the pleasure of watching these two incredibly talented actors ply their craft.
The therapy sessions involve several different mental/emotional exercises. In one the Master has Quell walk back and forth between a wall at one end of a room and a window at the other end of the room. With his eyes closed Quell must describe what he feels each time he touches the wall or the window pane. This goes on for hours while the Master and a group of his sycophants look on. In another session Quell and the Master's son-in-law must sit face to face while taking turns insulting each other. Neither man is allowed any physical, emotional or verbal reaction to whatever the other man says.
Much has been mentioned in press releases for The Master that it was shot on 70mm film. To my less than expertly trained eye there was no noticeable difference in the picture quality. Although it does feature a few beautifully shot scenes (including one in the desert) the cinematography is nowhere near as memorable as the Oscar winning work on There Will Be Blood.
Paul Thomas Anderson is a very talented filmmaker with a singular vision. He writes vivid characters that linger in your memory long after his movies end. The Master, however, is ultimately disappointing. It is beautifully wrought and features two of the finest performances of the year but in the end it feels empty and dissatisfying.
Joaquin Phoenix and Philip Seymour Hoffman in The Master.
The Master is about a charlatan with a following, most of whom accept everything he produces without question. I couldn't help but be reminded of Paul Thomas Anderson and the legion of critics who seem to automatically proclaim anything he produces as art. Every time I see one of his movies I wonder what the reaction would be, if some unknown director had made it.
Visually, Anderson has a good eye. Like Patrick, I can't say that the 70mm really impressed me, but there are many shots that look good. He makes particular good use of space, from interiors to wide open vistas.
He also tends to get good performances from his cast. As Patrick wrote, the very best thing about this movie is the acting from Hoffman and Phoenix. They make an interesting, if not likable pair. Phoenix buries himself in his part, twisting himself physically and emotionally. For sheer acting's sake, it's definitely one of the greatest performances of the year. Their many scenes together are the film's highlight, although I found their final moment, when Hoffman sings to Phoenix to be cringe inducing rather than emotionally moving.
Storywise though, the film is severely lacking. I just watched this movie and I honestly have no idea what the point of it all was. Now, I'm sure someone will say that's my problem or even say that I'm being ignorant, but here's my point. I was so bored by this movie and so disliked the characters, that to expend even the slightest effort more than necessary to decipher whatever cryptic point Anderson was trying to make is a complete anathema to me.
I once read, I forget where, but probably in the New York Times, that Anderson doesn't make movies for lazy movie watchers. Okay, so he tries to make works of art. That's fine. I get that. I've also read some critics who've said that to fully understand The Master, you need to watch it more than once. My point is that there's nothing to indicate to me that there's any great reward to be found at the center of this movie that warrants further analysis. If someone who disagrees with me wants to see that as a flaw in my character, they can feel free. Life's too short to waste it mulling over the homoerotic/Freudian underpinnings of the relationship between Phoenix's Freddie and Hoffman's Dodd (a name so close to Dad, it's almost laughable), two characters I have no desire to spend anymore time with than I have to.
Joaquin Phoenix in The Master
If a film needs interpretation, is it a work of art or a piece of shit? Is causing the viewer to decipher what they just saw a sign of the filmmaker's genius or a flaw in his story telling? The Master has received all kinds of flourishing compliments by critics and bloggers, with each stating it means something unique to them. If a film's message confuses its audience then how do we ever know if the film maker succeeded? If you want to argue that his effort was to confuse then you have just excused every horrible film maker.
With that said, here is merely another opinion. The film opens with the shot of a wake from a ship. The shot is returned to several times in the film. We do not know if it is from the ship he was stationed on in the Navy or from the one owned by Dodd. We then discover two issues about Quell. The first is that he is an alcoholic, making it out of anything he can find including paint thinner. The second is that he is sexually frustrated as depicted with the sand woman and the lack of success with the woman in the store.
After some wandering, Quell finds himself on a boat having therapy sessions with Dodd. I believe this is all a part of his imagination. Quell has Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. His actions at the store show he has issues. His mind keeps himself on a boat as that was the last stable place he experienced. We see Quell sneak aboard the ship and then the next time we see him he is laying down. A woman wakes him and ushers him into Dodd's office, just as a nurse would take a patient into an appointment.
What follows are many different therapy sessions between Quell and Dodd. We learn of his sexual experience with his aunt. He admits the incestuous relationship easier than he does to admitting to killing someone, even though he was just in a war. Quell tells of his love for a 16 year old girl whom he is only shown kissing. He left her for a job.
All of this self reflection has a clear affect on Quell but part of him still wants to question the therapy. Through the man at the party we have Quell questioning Dodd's methods by pointing out facts that contradict Dodd's opinions spoken as facts. The scene ends with Dodd off screen saying to a laughing Quell, "Freddie, stop. This is not the time." Quell then goes and beats the "man" up, or struggles with his own guilt.
Everything is in Quell's imagination such as Quell's daughter flirting with him. As he is actually in a hospital, his imagination often wanders toward sex. Notice the following scene where all the women are completely naked. That scene ends with Peggy Dodd staring directly at him. The next scene has Peggy giving Dodd a hand job. Obviously this is Quell masturbating. As Peggy jacks off her husband, she repeats "Cum for me." and "No more hooch." She makes him repeat it, "No more hooch." She then makes Quell himself repeat, "No more boozing."
When he yells at Val to, "Be a man!" He is yelling at himself. The arrest and hissy fit in the jail is his struggle to break away form his addiction. The conversation they have in the jail cells is more fitting for a therapy session than a prison. "You lazy ass piece of shit!" Dodd yells at Quell. "Who likes you except for me?" He continues, "You fucking drunk and I am done with you."
Beyond the beginning and ending, every thing we see is just symbolism of his therapy. The scene where they roll around on the grass laughing is a break through in his therapy. Quell is never again shown drinking alcohol. The scene of him walking back and forth in the room is just another symbolic gesture of his back and forth struggle to grasp reality.
We have brief flashbacks to him in the service and the sand woman. Quell and Dodd go into the desert and dig up a chest he calls his "life's worth." It is a manuscript written by Dodd. Quell then hands out pamphlets on the street saying, "Free yourself from past trauma." Quell starts to dress better and even takes photos of Dodd for his new book Dodd calls, "Book two." As in the next part or a second chance. This is all just visualized descriptions of Quell's healing process.
The ride on the motorcycle is Quell leaving therapy. He goes to look up Doris but finds that life has moved on while he was away. If you still think this story is literal and not all in Quell's imagination, look no further than the scene where Dodd calls Quell in the movie theater and Quell goes to visit him in England where Quell gets laid. During the sex he asks the girl some of the questions he was asked by Dodd. We then are shown him laying contently next to that sand woman. Quell is now healthy.
Everything but the beginning and ending of this film was in Quell's head as he went through therapy for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. No wait, I have another theory. Maybe he was dead and this was all purgatory awaiting for God (Dodd) to decide if he was worthy of entering heaven as shown at the end by the sex. Another theory could be that Quell dreamed all of this and he is actually still in the war.
Yet another theory could be be that Paul Thomas Anderson is just a shitty film maker who has no fucking clue how to translate a story from his brain to an audience. Yeah, maybe that thought is the most accurate. After all, if a film does not tell a cohesive story and the point is intended to be left open for interpretation then why even make the film?

The early history of our lake is closely interwoven with the building of the Delaware and Hudson Canal (Honesdale, PA to Roundout, NY, 107 miles). About 1820, William and Maurice Wurtz, Philadelphia merchants, acquired anthracite coal fields in Pennsylvania and was determined to build that canal to carry the coal to New York and New England markets. Wurtsboro was later established as a construction supply base. The Delaware and Hudson Coal Company was incorporated in New York and Pennsylvania in 1823. In 1826, Philip Hone, Mayor of New York City, later president of the Canal Company, came to the Pennsylvania area to push the construction of the canal. The settlement took his name and Honesdale PA was to become one of the foremost coal storage and shipping points. The State of New York was persuaded to supply the funds, about $6,000,000.00. John P. Jervis, a civil engineer, was placed in charge of construction. He made his headquarters at the junction of the Delaware and Neversink rivers and Port Jervis was founded. The first shipment of 120 tons of coal was en route on December 3, 1828. From 1840 to 1873, the land in and around our lake was acquired by President, Managers, and Company of the Delaware and Hudson Canal Company. The canal was enlarged in 1842-1851. During this period, the dam was constructed across the outlet of Lords Pond and our lake was formed as one of the canal feeders.

|1/2||cup chopped fresh basil|
|4||tablespoons unsalted butter , cut into pieces|
|2||tablespoons capers drained and minced|
|1||teaspoon lemon juice|
1. Pat shrimp dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking. Add shrimp and cook until lightly browned, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to plate.
2. Add remaining oil, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to empty skillet and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in wine and tomatoes and simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Off heat, whisk in basil, butter, capers, and lemon juice. Add shrimp and any accumulated juices to skillet. Cover and let sit until shrimp are heated through, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve.
We served this with thick slices of homemade bread in order to sop up all the yummy goodness. Next time, I'll serve this over angel hair pasta. Anyhow, combined with a nice tossed salad, this was a fantastic meal (don't mind the garlicky dragon breath, LOL!).
Dinner tonight was grilled salmon with tossed salad and homemade bread. The meal took no longer than 30 minutes to pull together and was divine. Lily had seconds and then thirds!
When in doubt as to how best to grill salmon, I searched Cook's Illustrated. They of course had the perfect glaze and preparation:
|Maple-soy Glaze (also see related recipes)|
|2||tablespoons soy sauce|
|1/4||cup maple syrup|
|1/3||cup soy sauce|
|1/3||cup maple syrup|
|4||salmon fillets (about 8 ounces each), each about 1 1/2 inches at thickest part|
|ground black pepper|
|vegetable oil for grill grate|
|lemon wedges for serving|
1. Stir together soy sauce and maple syrup in small saucepan; bring to simmer over medium-high heat and cook until slightly thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Measure 2 tablespoons glaze into small bowl and set aside.
2. Whisk 1/3 cup soy sauce and 1/3 cup maple syrup in 13- by 9-inch baking dish until combined; carefully place fillets flesh-side down in single layer in marinade (do not coat salmon skin with marinade). Refrigerate while preparing grill.
Turn all burners on gas grill to high; cover and heat until very hot, about 15 minutes. Scrape grill grate clean with grill brush. Turn all but 1 burner to medium-low. Remove salmon from marinade and sprinkle flesh liberally with pepper. Using long-handled grill tongs, dip wad of paper towels in vegetable oil and wipe hot side of grill grate. Place fillets flesh-side down on hot side of grill and cook until grill-marked, 1 to 2 minutes. Using tongs, flip fillets skin-side down, still on hot side of grill; brush flesh with glaze, cover grill, and cook until salmon is opaque about halfway up thickness of fillets, 3 to 4 minutes.
I'm not sure if Mom has already posted this recipe or not. If it's a repeat, I apologize. ;o)
Ukrop's had strawberries (red, ripe, gloriously smelling strawberries) for $1.50/box today and I decided we would have strawberries with fresh whipped cream over lemon pound cake for our Valentine's treat. This recipe works best if you have a stand mixer as you have to beat it for 15 minutes.
Granny Tess Lemon Pound Cake
3 sticks butter
3 cups sugar
3 cups all purpose flour
1 cup milk
1 t vanilla extract
1 t lemon extract
Cream together butter and sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time and beat, scraping bowl as needed. Alternate adding the flour and milk (1/3 each time), beating between each addition, again, scraping bowl as needed. Add vanilla and lemon extracts and beat for 15 minutes. <--This step is especially important as it makes the batter smooth as silk and quite fluffy. (I added a little lemon zest today, just because.)
Bake at 350 for about an hour and fifteen minutes, checking often after one hour. (I usually use my nose to tell me when it's getting close to done. Once you've made the cake a few times, you get the scent of it.)
Turn out onto a cooling rack and let cool completely.
This next step is optional (Jessie's not a particular fan but B and I LOVE it).
1 cup lemon juice and 2 cups confectioner's sugar and mix well. Pour over cake after cake is cool. I do this by putting the glaze back in the bunt pan and putting the cake back in the pan and letting it soak in.
This cake is an excellent picnic/church function/bake sale/office surprise cake. It's quick, easy and SOOOOO delicious.

We had the best burgers and fries last night. The burgers were made with a panade made from milk and white bread, seasoned with two cloves of garlic, three tablespoons bacon grease(!) and salt and pepper. The burgers were gently patted together and grilled and were so tender and delicious.
We had these garlicky oven fries with them. Recipe courtesy Cook's Country:
Garlicky Oven Fries
Be sure to use potatoes of a similar size and cut them into even wedges so all of the pieces cook at the same rate. Traditional-finish and nonstick baking sheets both work well for this recipe.
|6||garlic , minced|
|6||tablespoons vegetable oil|
|3||russet potatoes (about 8 ounces each), scrubbed|
|1 1/2||teaspoons salt|
|1/2||teaspoon garlic powder|
1. Adjust oven rack to lowest position and heat oven to 475 degrees. Combine garlic and oil in large bowl and microwave until garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Transfer 5 tablespoons oil (leaving garlic in bowl) to rimmed baking sheet, turning sheet to coat.
2. Add potatoes to bowl with remaining oil mixture and toss to coat. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap and microwave on high power until potatoes are translucent around edges, 3 to 6 minutes, shaking bowl to redistribute potatoes halfway through cooking.
3. Combine cornstarch, salt, pepper, and garlic powder in small bowl. Sprinkle over hot potatoes and toss to coat. Arrange potatoes in single layer on prepared baking sheet and bake, turning once, until deep golden brown and crisp, 30 to 40 minutes. Serve.
Once again, a simple, tasty recipe. I have to tell you, we were SO exhausted from cleaning the garage yesterday, that all I wanted to do was call Cheeburger Cheeburger to do carryout. I pulled myself together, and I have to say, this was far better than their greasy burgers and fries.
We were supposed to have a cheesy chicken and broccoli casserole for dinner. However, when I got the chicken out, the liquid was an icky cloudy white and I just wasn't feeling up to food poisoning. Dropping back and punting, I decided on the Cheesy Broccoli and Rice Casserole in this month's Cook's Country:
Cheesy Broccoli and Rice Casserole
Serves 8 to 10
Three to four medium heads of broccoli will yield roughly 2 pounds.
|2||slices hearty white sandwich bread , torn into pieces|
|3/4||cup grated Parmesan cheese|
|4||tablespoons unsalted butter , melted; plus 2 tablespoons, chilled|
|1||garlic clove , minced|
|2||pounds broccoli , florets cut into 1-inch pieces, stems peeled and chopped|
|1||onion , chopped fine|
|1 1/4||cups long grain white rice|
|4||cups low-sodium chicken broth|
|1 1/4||cups half-and-half|
|2||cups shredded extra-sharp cheddar cheese|
|1/8||teaspoon cayenne pepper|
1. PREPARE TOPPING Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 400 degrees. Grease 13- by 9-inch baking dish. Pulse bread, ¼ cup Parmesan, and melted butter in food processor until coarsely ground. Add garlic
2. MAKE FILLING Microwave broccoli florets, covered, in large bowl until bright green and tender, 2 to 4 minutes; set aside. Melt remaining butter in Dutch oven over medium heat. Cook onion and broccoli stems until softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Add rice and cook, stirring constantly, until rice is translucent, about 1 minute. Stir in broth, half-and-half, and salt and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring often, until rice is tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Off heat, stir in cheddar, cayenne, remaining Parmesan, and broccoli florets.
3. TOP AND BAKE Pour mixture into prepared baking dish and top with bread crumb mixture. Bake until sauce is bubbling around edges and top is golden brown, about 15 minutes. Cool 5 minutes. Serve.
MAKE AHEAD Filling can be prepared, placed in greased baking dish, covered with plastic wrap, and refrigerated for 1 day. Refrigerate topping separately. Bring filling to room temperature before adding bread crumbs and baking as directed.
It may not have been what we had originally planned on, but it sure was WONDERFUL! It is a fabulous comfort food, and I had a hard time not going back for seconds.
As always, enjoy! :o)
Once again, a recipe from one of my two favorite sources, Cook's Country:
Serves 6 to 8
Pork shoulder—usually labeled pork butt or Boston butt—comes either boneless or on the bone. If using bone-in pork shoulder, buy a 6- to 6½-pound roast. When trimming excess fat, leave at least 1/8-inch thickness on the exterior. Serve the finished dish over rice or with warm corn tortillas.
|1/2||cup brewed coffee|
|1||boneless pork shoulder roast (4- to 5-pounds), trimmed of excess fat and cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks|
|Salt and pepper|
|1||tablespoon vegetable oil|
|2||onions , chopped|
|1/4||cup all-purpose flour|
|1/2||cup chili powder|
|1||teaspoon dried oregano|
|1||tablespoon minced chipotle chiles in adobo sauce|
|6||garlic cloves , minced|
|2 1/2||cups low-sodium chicken broth|
|1||teaspoon grated zest and 1 tablespoon juice from 1 lime|
|1/4||cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves|
1. PLUMP FRUIT Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees. Combine raisins and coffee in small bowl. Wrap tightly with plastic and microwave until liquid begins to boil, 1 to 3 minutes; let stand 5 minutes, until raisins are plump.
2. BROWN PORK Pat pork dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Heat oil in Dutch oven over medium-high heat until just smoking. Brown half of pork, about 10 minutes. Transfer to plate and repeat with remaining pork.
3. MAKE SAUCE Pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat from Dutch oven. Add onions and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add flour, chili powder, oregano, chipotle, and garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add broth and raisin mixture, scraping up any browned bits, and bring to boil. Working in 2 batches, transfer mixture to blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Return sauce to pot.
4. BAKE AND FINISH Add browned pork to sauce in pot and transfer to oven. Cook, covered, until pork is fork-tender, about 2 hours. Skim sauce, then stir in lime zest, lime juice, and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper. Serve. (Pork can be refrigerated in airtight container for 3 days.)
This is a little time consuming to make so is best for a weekend recipe and then use the leftovers to make the empanadas on Monday or Tuesday. :o)
Use your favorite pie dough or use one 15-ounce box of Pillsbury Just Unroll! Pie Crusts. You can make empanadas up to 12 hours in advance and keep them refrigerated until ready to bake. Serve with sour cream and lime wedges.
|3||cups carne adovada , leftover|
|4||scallions , chopped fine|
|1||cup pimento stuffed green olive , chopped fine|
|1||cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese|
|3||tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves|
|1||tablespoon minced chipotle chiles in adobo sauce|
|2||pie dough rounds (9-inch)|
1. MAKE FILLING Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 450 degrees. Line rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Place pork in bowl and microwave until heated through, 2 to 5 minutes. Using two forks, pull into shreds. Let cool slightly, then stir in scallions, olives, cheese, cilantro, and chipotle.
2. ASSEMBLE TURNOVERS Cut each dough round in half. Arrange one-quarter of filling on one side of each half, leaving ½-inch border around edges. Brush edges of dough with water, fold over filling, and crimp edges to seal. Transfer to prepared baking sheet. Using fork, dock dough at 2-inch intervals so steam can escape. Bake until golden, about 30 minutes. Serve.
It incredibly delicious with only a hint of heat from the chipotle peppers.

RealizationEngine (TM)it's how to get things done.(SM)
re al ize 1 a : to bring into concrete existence

The RealizationEngine helps companies rescue the time and productivity that is usually lost to unproductive meetings, poor communications and tracking down misplaced documents. Our software
Easy to use, [the RealizationEngine] has dramatically expanded our capacity to stay on top of all the various components of this venture. I highly recommend, without reservation, the RealizationEngine from Realization Systems, Inc., to any business or organization where continual, multiple open and instantaneous thought exchanges are desired.can help companies be more productive through better communication and reduce the number and frequency of meetings dramatically, while making the meetings you do have more productive and shorter. The RealizationEngine breaks down the barriers to communication and, at the same time, creates a lasting knowledge base for future reference. One huge advantage of the RealizationEgine is that it creates a managed, central repository the communication so that the burden of filing and tracking the communication is removed from the users. The RealizationEngine is web-based, so all of the information is available to employees from any web browser that has access to the server, when they are in their office, away from their office, or even traveling. Communication and information is organized in logical, departmental or project structures, which eliminates wasted redundancy, confusion and miscommunication. Access is controlled by assigning users to different groups, so confidential information can be kept confidential, and public information can be published in publicly available areas.
From somewhere near the end zone,
The RealizationEngine is a suitable tool for:
Every generation changes the world through technological breakthroughs in communication. From clay tablets to ink on papyrus. From feather quills to metal quills. Ink wells, printing press, linotype, high quality paper, typewriter, telegraph, fountain pen, ball-point pen, computer, internet, e-mail, world wide web....In today's world, e-mail is still considered state of the art, and e-mail is 30 years primitive. Today's workers spend 2.5 hours of company time, every day sorting through and deleting mostly unwanted e-mail. Multiple, outdated copies of documents circulate and cost companies billions of dollars per year. Messages sent via e-mail lose context over time and become impossible to back track meaningfully. Perhaps most damaging is that there is no coherent circulation scheme for e-mail. Messages get lost, misplaced, misdirected and important communication never takes place.
The RealizationEngine is a solution to these problems.


TV Host Resigns On-Air Due to ‘Bias Coverage’ of Ukrainian Crisis
Liz Wahl, a TV anchor for Russia Today (RT), came under harsh criticism after announcing her resignation during a live broadcast.
Wahl, who worked at the Washington bureau of the international multilingual Russian-based TV Russia Today, expressed her disagreement with the station's coverage of the standoff between Russia and Ukraine, as USA Today reports.
She explained she could not be "part of a network funded by the Russian government that whitewashes the actions of [Russian President Vladimir] Putin" and was stepping down as she was "proud to be American" and believed in disseminating the truth.
Her public statement came short after RT offered Abby Martin, another of its anchors, to send her to Crimea to "better her knowledge" on the situation there. The reason was that Martin had condemned Russian actions toward Crimea while being on air.
RT was quick to react to Liz Wahl's decision, saying that Martin had spoken "in the context of her show" and explaining she had become "an overnight sensation" with her actions, giving "a temping example to follow".
On its website, the television expressed its belief that, "when a journalist disagrees with the editorial position of his or her organization, the usual course of action is to address those grievances with the editor, and, if they cannot be resolved, to quit like a professional."
Consequently, RT explained, Wahl's action could be described as "nothing more than a self-promotional stunt."
Russia Today, which is officially funded through Russia's Federal Agency for the Press and Mass Communications, has attracted over the years many European and American journalists and activists critical of their governments.
Among them are the iconic CNN host Larry King, who started his own RT show in 2013, and the founder of WikiLeaks, Julian Assange.
RT is also widely known as a platform where US and European politicians are often invited to express their dissenting views.

Daniel Radcliffe Explains Why He Won't Go See 'Harry Potter and the Cursed Child'
By Rachel McRady
Don’t expect to see the original Harry Potter at a viewing of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.
Daniel Radcliffe appeared on Wednesday’s Late Night With Seth Meyers, where he was asked about the new Broadway shows, written about the Potterverse.
"I’ve been asked this a lot, and I feel like I always give a really boring, terrible answer. I’m probably not going to see it,” he admitted. "I don’t have plans to. Not because I think it would throw me into some existential crisis of like, ‘Oh, is that what happened?’ But more so I just feel like it would not be a relaxing evening in the theater.”
Radcliffe, 29, who played the boy wizard for eight films, went on to explain, "I feel like I would be being watched for my reaction. And maybe that is complete conceited and egotistical and people wouldn’t care. But I do feel like if I was just surrounded by Harry Potter fans, it would be a little odd."
Host Meyers asked if he’d consider going in disguise, to which he replied, "The thing about a disguise is if it stops working, then you’re just a dude who wore a disguise.”
He went on to note a time when he attended a music festival with his co-star pal, Rupert Grint, who played Ron Weasley in the films.
“For whatever reason because we were young, cool and edgy, we had access to old World War II gas masks, so we put them on,” he said. "And then it got really hot really quickly so we just took them off. Everybody went from ‘who are those two idiots in gas masks,’ to, ‘Oh, look who that is.’ It was not a good feeling. That’s sworn me off disguises.”
Radcliffe was singing a different tune about disguises back in 2015, when ET’s Ashley Crossan asked the British actor if he was planning to see the first Fantastic Beasts film.
“I think I’ll have to maybe go slightly heavily disguised,” he said at the time. “But I definitely will be [seeing it]!”

The new logo of Metro Istanbul, which is criticized for the similarity of the logo of the Sofia metro, has been used. With the logo, Istanbul Metro signs will also change. This change will cost 6 million TL.
In the 2016, the new 'metro' logo introduced by the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality was criticized for being quoted in the Bulgarian capital Sofia. Not used by the former Mayor of Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Kadir Topbaş, the new logo was used by Mevlüt Uysal.
This logo was also used on the congratulations of the Feast of Sacrifice, which is alleged to be the subject of criticism and allegedly cost 9 million pounds. With the new logo, metro signs and totems in Istanbul will be renewed with the new logo.
TOTAL 7 THOUSANDS OF 396 CHANGES
After Kadir Topbaş's resignation, Mevlüt Uysal from Başakşehir Municipality came to the seat and sat down in September. In December, Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Facilities Maintenance and Repair Directorate went to tender for totems and signs. The tender was signed in January with the title of 'purchase of signage, totem and steering panels for municipal buildings and public buildings throughout Istanbul'. The winning company will change the total 7 bin 396 signage from totems to aluminum routing signs to be used in Istanbul.
SözcüAccording to the news of Bora Erdin, the total cost of this tender was 5 million 430 thousand pounds.
THE SAME WITH SOFIA METRO
The name of Istanbul Metro was changed two years ago and 'Metro İstanbul' was built. However, the logo of Metro Istanbul has also changed. However, the new logo was originally found not to be original. The revamped logo of Metro Istanbul on 2016 has been shown to be quoted from Sofia Metro. The old logo continued to be used in the new lines opened in two years. Metro Istanbul, which operates the existing tram, metro, light metro, funicular and ropeway lines in Istanbul, has been using this name only for its corporate identity since Metro Istanbul 2016.

Last night I watched this GREAT movie, and I just had to share it with you. I hope you will find the time this weekend to watch it with your loved ones. It filled my heart, witnessing the fulfillment of a soul's journey...and it awakened my soul to the beauty of our interconnectedness.
I often think that I am the crazy one because of my relationship with God, and how I have started every day of my life writing to Him in my journal. But I must admit that I have also witnessed miracles upon miracles throughout my life...so I can't help but wonder if that's a coincidence.
Anyways, I hope you enjoy this movie as much as I did. Please feel free to share your thoughts after you watch it. And if you think it could be valuable to others, please like and share.
With love & light,

LAUREN! Here are the tomato picks! LOL….
It is the end of the summer picking of heirloom tomatoes. There is a little man that farms a piece of land between industrial buildings. I hadn’t been out there in a year or two and hoped he was still there. AND I didn’t have my camera on me. SO I took photos of my delicious produce. They are beautiful to look at and scrumptious to eat.
My favorite are the yellow pear-shaped ones. My grandmama used to grow them on the porch, as we swam in the summer, we’d take breaks, picking them from the bushes and snacking. YUM!

January 1st, 2012
Wondering what that the rules are for raising rent in 2012? Here they are:
1. Are Alberta landlords limited in how much they can raise the rent?
Landlords are not limited as the legislation does not include any rental caps.
2. Why doesn’t the province set a limit on how much landlords charge for rent?
Experience shows that rent controls are harmful to the rental housing market over the long term. Rent controls discourage development of new rental housing, resulting in fewer units being available for rent. In addition, some landlords reduce maintenance of property or provide fewer services to operating costs, resulting in deterioration.
3. How much notice must the landlord provide before rent is increased for my apartment?
Landlords must give at least three months’ written notice for periodic (month-to-month) tenancies.
4. Are Alberta tenants protected against continual rent increases?
Alberta’s tenancy legislation minimizes the impact of rent increases by requiring that one year must pass between increases for monthly tenancies.
The amount of notice required to increase the rent for a month-to-month periodic tenancy is three full tenancy months.
Rules for Rent increase notices:
- have to be in writing,
- be dated,
- state the effective date of the increase and be signed by the landlord.
If a notice does not comply with these requirements, it is void. Tenants who pay an increase in rent based on a notice that does not comply with the requirements may recover the amount of the increase, with court approval.
5. What if I really can’t afford to pay a rent increase?
A tenant has the right to discuss a rent increase with their landlord if it will be a financial burden.
If rent is a financial burden, there are several supportive housing programs that assist Albertans. Contact the Housing and Urban Affairs ministry to determine if assistance is available for your circumstances.
6. What happens if my landlord tries to raise the rent before a year has passed since the last increase?
Rents cannot be increased unless 365 days have passed since the last rent increase or the start of the tenancy, whichever is later. A tenant is not required to pay the rental increase if proper notice time (365 day or 3 months) has not passed. The Residential Tenancies Act allows tenants to apply to court or the Residential Tenancies Dispute Resolution Service (RTDRS) for recovery of the amount by which the rent was increased.
Landlords who attempt to increase rent before a year has passed risk fines of up to $10,000 per tenant. Call Service Alberta’s Consumer Services Contact Centre toll free at 1-877-427-4088 or a local Landlord and Tenant Advisory Board if you are unsure about whether a rent increase is allowed.
7. When can rent be increased for fixed term tenants (such as those with a lease agreement for a specific number of months or years?)
The landlord and tenant agree to the amount of rent when they negotiate the terms of the fixed term tenancy agreement. Rent cannot be increased unless 365 days pass since a tenant moved in or since the last rent increase, whichever is later. If the 365th day is during the current fixed term tenancy agreement, rent cannot be increased until that tenancy agreement ends.

One doesn’t often associate the word simplicity with crazy quilting. BUT, today I want to talk about sometimes the simplest of seam treatments works well with stitching.
When I travel I am always on the lookout for various embellishments. You never know what you may find in some little shop tucked away! This block started with the patterned ribbon. It is a gorgeous pattern – I think it is a Sue Spargo ribbon but not entirely sure. I picked it up in Leon France several years ago. I remember walking out the door of the hotel at the time and looked into an embroidery shop directly across the street! Serendipity!
Since I love the pattern of this ribbon, I opted to stitch it in place with a fine rayon thread in a wide zig zag. Fast and fun!
The lower portion of the block is overlaid with a wider silk with the addition of a few French knots.
The center seam treatment are wide diamonds created with straight stitches. Beads were added at the bottom. I believe the round circles in the center of the diamonds are actually jewelry findings of some sort. As I am not a jeweler, I am not entirely sure.
Once again, the handkerchief is peeking out in the lower left. I’ll talk more about this in my next post.
Sometimes simplicity simply works!

4th Circuit, 2nd Circuit split on foreign discovery jurisdiction
The United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit has ruled that a corporation that is not physically present in a district is not “found” in the district for purposes of federal law that allows courts to order discovery for use in a foreign court. In re Eli Lilly and Co.Case No. 22-1094 (4th Cir. 2022) (Niemeyer, Diaz, JJ.; Floyd, Sr. J.) The Court rejected the approach of the Second Circuit, which had previously held that a district court’s power to order discovery under 28 U.S.C § 1782 was coextensive with the investigation of minimum contacts from a specific jurisdiction.
After acquiring a portfolio of patents related to the psoriasis drug Taltz, Novartis AG sued Eli Lilly for patent infringement in several European courts. Eli Lilly sought discovery of Novartis in the Eastern District of Virginia under § 1782, which authorizes a district court “in the district in which a person resides or is found” to “order him to give his testimony or statement or produce a document or other thing for use in a proceeding in a foreign or international court.” Novartis is based in Switzerland and has no offices or employees in the Eastern District of Virginia.
Following the granting by an investigating judge of Eli Lilly’s request ex parte request for a subpoena, the district court overturned that order. The Fourth Circuit upheld, largely echoing the reasoning of the district court.
It was undisputed that Novartis did not “resident” in the district; the only question was whether Novartis could be “found” there. The Fourth Circuit considered the ordinary meaning of “found”, Supreme Court precedent interpreting similar statutory language, and the statute’s legislative history, and concluded “that a corporation is found where it is physically present by its managers and agents carrying out the activities of the company”. Company.”
The Fourth Circuit rejected Eli Lilly’s counter argument that satisfaction of specific jurisdictional requirements was sufficient for a corporation to be “found” in a district, including Eli Lilly’s reliance on the decision of the second circuit of 2019 in In the re del Valle Ruiz, which held that a society was “found” wherever it could be subject to a specific jurisdiction. The Fourth Circuit concluded that In the re del Valle Ruiz failed to give “founded” its ordinary meaning, improperly ignored Supreme Court precedent, and failed to give proper weight to the legislative history of § 1782.
Even if the Fourth Circuit had disagreed with the District Court’s interpretation of § 1782, the Court would still have held based on the deferential standard of abuse of discretion. Because § 1782 permits, but does not require, a discovery order, the Court held that the district court’s decision to “seek[ ] [ ] a large volume of data and materials located abroad [to] be brought into the United States for further use in proceedings abroad, [would be] an absurd result” was well reasoned.
With this decision, the Fourth Circuit broke with the Second Circuit and created a split circuit in the interpretation of § 1782.
Ian Howard, summer associate in the Washington, DC office, also contributed to this case note.

Site: Ann Arbor, Mich. (Yost Ice Arena)
Score: RIT 5, Michigan 4 (OT)
Records: U-M (0-1-0), RIT (1-0-0)
Next U-M Event: Friday, Oct. 12 -- vs. Rochester Institute of Technology (Yost Ice Arena), 7:35 p.m.
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- The University of Michigan ice hockey team (No. 3 USA Today/No. 3 USCHO) fell, 5-4, in overtime to the Rochester Institute of Technology on Thursday night (Oct. 11) in the season opener at Yost Ice Arena.
The Wolverines dominated the first period 3-1 and put another on the board in the third, but the Tigers steadily chipped away at the lead in the final period to force an overtime situation. Freshman defenseman Jacob Trouba (Rochester, Mich.) tallied one goal and one assist in the loss.
The Wolverines scored three of their four goals in the first period. Less than three minutes into the stanza, senior forward Lindsay Sparks (Oakville, Ontario) fired a shot across the crease to junior forward Derek DeBlois (Narragansett, R.I.), who one-timed it into the net to give U-M a 1-0 advantage at 2:16.
Two power-play goals followed to stretch Michigan's lead to three. At 11:41 of the first, during a brief five-on-three man-advantage, Trouba knocked one to junior defenseman Mac Bennett (Narragansett, R.I.), who fired off a shot from the point that found twine. Senior forward A.J. Treais (Bloomfield Hills, Mich.) picked up the other assist.
Less than seven minutes later on another power play, Trouba nabbed the first tally of his Wolverine career when he whipped behind the RIT net and stuffed in a wraparound stickside under the goaltender's leg.
With less than a minute remaining in the period, however, RIT got on the board when the puck floated in behind freshman goaltender Jared Rutledge (Chicago, Ill.) to bring the score to 3-1 after 20 minutes.
Midway through the second stanza, a near-goal by sophomore goaltender Alex Guptill (New Market, Ontario) was called back due to high-sticking. Though both teams had multiple power-play opportunities, neither team capitalized and the score remained 3-1 heading into the third.
RIT opened the third stanza with a quick goal fired up over Rutledge's shoulder to bring the score to 3-2. Sophomore forward Travis Lynch (White Lake, Mich.) was quick to retaliate when he stripped the puck from an RIT defenseman in a cleared-out attacking zone and ripped in an unassisted goal from in front of the crease, bringing the score to 4-2.
Midway through the period, the Tigers shrunk the lead to one and at 4:40, tied the game. The contest remained locked at 4-4 as the two teams headed into extra time, which lasted just 14 seconds as RIT's Adam Hartley forced the puck between Rutledge's pads.
Michigan was five-for-five on the penalty kill and capitalized on two out of seven power-play opportunities.
Rutledge saved 21 of 26 shots on goal and RIT's Josh Watson turned aside 40 of 44.
Michigan returns to game action tomorrow night (Friday, Oct. 12) for the final game in the series with RIT at Yost Ice Arena. The puck is slated to drop at 7:35 p.m.

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) is intended to ensure that Americans have access to healthcare they can afford. To that end, it has created a public marketplace where people can buy health insurance.
