ravioli di formaggio mezza luna
mezza luna=crescent or half-moon
Mezza luna cheese ravioli is really simple to make. When all the ravs are a uniform shape and size, it’s simple to gauge portions and makes presentation pretty on the plate. The dough is your basic pasta dough with a creamy, ricotta filling. This is my favorite filling for ravioli – it’s rich, smooth and simply delicious with homemade pasta dough.
RICOTTA CHEESE FILLING for Mezza Luna Cheese Ravioli
Prep time: 10 minutes
Makes filling for approximately 30 cheese ravs
You’ll probably have some left over.
- 1 pint whole milk ricotta
- 1 teaspoon each – garlic powder, fresh or dried oregano and basil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 cup grated Parmegiano Reggiano cheese
Put ricotta in a medium size bowl.
Add all other ingredients and stir until well combined.
Be sure and taste this, especially if you don’t use whole milk ricotta. The whole milk adds a wonderful richness. So adjust to taste if it isn’t really tasty and flavorful.
BASIC PASTA DOUGH for Mezza Luna Cheese Ravioli
Prep time: 1 to 1 1/2 hours
Makes 30 ravs – enough to serve 4 people (I figure 6-8 ravs/person)
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose, unsifted flour
- 1 egg
- 1 egg white
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- A few drops of water
Time to get your hands dirty! This is the way my grandmother taught me how to make my dough and I find it works the best. 🙂
On a floured surface or flour bread board, mound your flour and create a ‘well’ in the middle.
Break one whole egg into the ‘well’ you’ve made in your mound of flour.
Add your egg white, oil and salt to the well and fill up/cover the well with flour pushed in from around the edges of the mound.
Gather up the flour and begin to knead, adding drops of water if the dough is too dry. Knead together until dough becomes smooth, shiny and elastic.
Divide dough into 2 or 3 smaller parts.
If you have a pasta machine, begin working each part separately through your machine. Start with the thickest setting and gradually reduce until you’ve reached setting 3 or 4, depending on the desired consistency of your finished ravs. Setting 3 is a bit thinner than setting 4. Be careful tough, too thin and the ravs will break apart during boiling.
If you don’t have a pasta machine to do the kneading for you, take each dough part and roll into thin sheets about 4 inches wide.
Layer your strips of ravioli inside some damp flour sack towels so they don’t dry out.
When you have all your 4 inch wide strips made, take one strip at a time and use a small round cookie cutter or small glass and cut out rounds from the dough strips. If you keep them close together, you won’t have must waste.
Moisten the rounds with a pastry brush dipped in water.
Place small dollups (approx. 1/2 teaspoonful) on one side of each round and fold the dough over the filling.
Seal the edges with your finger or the tines of a fork.
Set aside on a cookie sheet. At this point you can freeze them for future use or set aside for boiling when all are prepared.
This is good with just about any kind of sauce you want. I traditionally serve it with my homemade gravy (tomato-based sauce). You can serve it with your favorite homemade sauce, favorite store-brand or any yummy white sauce.

I wanted to share a few of my favorite images from the last wedding of 2008.
I remember how the trees looked from the plane window as I flew over Asheville, NC.
It was like an impressionistic painting of vivid dabs of yellows, reds, and greens.
Discovering Asheville was a highlight of my trip though the actual wedding was a blast.
I started with the preparation shots at the Renaissance Hotel and then jumped on the trolley to the Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church.
Then we raced to the Homewood for some portraits and the reception. It was already dusk when I arrived so I took advantage of a street lamp for some film noir style shots.
What a way to wrap up the weddings of 2008!

The Manchester United striker had to train separately from his team-mates yesterday after complaining of astomach problem and Netherlands manager Louis van Gaal confirmed on the eve of the game in Sao Paulo that his star striker, who has scored three goals in Brazil, is a serious doubt for the last-four clash.
“He has a stomach problem, an intestinal problem. I don’t know (if he will play),” Van Gaal said.
“I will decide (on Wednesday).
“Van Persie is our captain so he is very important to us.
“In principle, my captain always plays, but he has to be fit.”
There was some good news for the Dutch coach yesterday as injury doubts Ron Vlaar and Leroy Fer took part in training.
In an interesting development, midfielder Nigel de Jong was also involved even though he had been expected to miss the rest of the World Cup after suffering a groin injury in the group stage win over Mexico.
“If his reaction is good and he can play, then the miracle can come true,” Van Gaal said.
But even if De Jong makes a shock return to the XI for the Argentina match, it will be a poor consolation if Van Persie is ruled out.
The Dutch have relied heavily on the Manchester United striker, and fellow star Arjen Robben, in Brazil.
Both players scored in the penalty shoot-out win over Costa Rica which sent the Dutch through to their second successive World Cup semi-final.
That match was a draining affair as the Dutch battered the Costa Rica goal, but could not beat Keylor Navas inside 120 minutes.
Van Gaal thinks his players will have recovered their fitness by the time they face Alejandro Sabella’s team.
“In general I give the players two days to recover, so if you have one day less it’s an issue, a problem,” Van Gaal said. “But a top athlete can perform so my players will be in shape.”
Van Gaal’s decision to bring on Tim Krul in the 120th minute of the quarter-final was hailed as a master stroke.
Krul saved two penalties after replacing Jasper Cillessen, but the Newcastle stopper will not start the semi-final.
“No. I ruled that out straight away,” said Van Gaal. “Jasper is doing a wonderful job, it was just that stopping a penalty is something that the others (Krul and third choice Michel Vorm) are better at.”
Although Argentina are yet to hit peak form, they are the favourites for the match at the Arena Corinthians.
Van Gaal believes there is nothing between the two sides though.
“I don’t think there is a favourite,” he said. “The countries are at the same level. It’s a 50-50 match and we have to be a bit lucky too.”
Key to their chances of making the final will be how they deal with the threat posed by Lionel Messi, who has finally transferred his domestic form with Barcelona onto the international stage.
“He has been voted the world’s best player before and you don’t get that for nothing,” Van Gaal added. “He has always found it hard to show his form at international level.
“He wants to do it at this tournament and we want to stop him. That will be a challenge.”

CAA is adding to its ranks.
The agency has hired Saraphina Monaco as an agent in its television talent department. She’ll be based at CAA’s Century City office and will focus on identifying and creating acting opportunities for the agency’s comedy touring clients — which includes several A-list comedians — in film and television.
More from The Hollywood Reporter
Monaco joins CAA from A3 Artists Agency, where she spent five years as a talent agent in its theatrical division. The agency ceased operations in February. Prior to that, Monaco worked at Buchwald, in both its New York and Los Angeles offices, and Prestige Talent Agency. She began her career as an assistant at Aquila/Wood Casting and also has experience at a few boutique agencies.
CAA’s comedy touring division represents the likes of recent Saturday Night Live host Shane Gillis, Colin Jost, Gabriel Iglesias, Jack Whitehall, Jeff Dunham, Jo Koy, Katt Williams, Tim Robinson, Matt Rife, Andrew Schulz, Tim Dillon, Tracy Morgan and Trevor Noah, among others. The division also brokered the nine-figure deal for the SmartLess podcast (hosted by Will Arnett, Jason Bateman and Sean Hayes) to move to SiriusXM and saw clients Robinson and Ayo Edebiri win Emmys in January for, respectively, Netflix’s I Think You Should Leave With Tim Robinson and FX and Hulu’s The Bear.

Cesc Fabregas sends message to Chelsea, Man United fans about Jose Mourinho
Cesc Fabregas opens up about how his relationship with Jose Mourinho has changed over the years
Cesc Fabregas has admitted that he gained a new-found respect for Jose Mourinho after working with the Portuguese coach at Chelsea.
Fabregas had come up against Mourinho’s teams in the past during his time at Arsenal and Barcelona.
The Spanish midfielder admits that he considered Mourinho to be an “enemy” before he started working with the Portuguese coach for the first time following his move to Chelsea from Barcelona in the summer of 2011.
However, the 30-year-old insists that he built a very positive relationship with Mourinho since having worked with him for the first time at Chelsea, with the pair winning the Premier League together at Stamford Bridge in the 2014-15 campaign.
Speaking to Vanity Fair magazine about Mourinho, Fabregas said: “Jose Mourinho? He was my enemy when he was in Madrid or Chelsea.
“We were in competitions and we wanted to win against the other. From there I became his player at Chelsea and would go with him to death.
“I learned a lot from him and I have very positive memories with him that I would keep for life.”
Fabregas will be expecting to feature for Chelsea when the Blues return to Premier League action on Saturday afternoon with a crunch clash against Watford at Stamford Bridge.
The west London side are looking to get back to winning ways after having lost their last two games in the top flight to leave them nine points behind leaders Manchester City in the table.
Chelsea have won the Premier League in two of the last three seasons.

Hatred, Xenophobia, Bigotry!
These are the attitudes of those who fear
Being robbed of their control.
Apocalypse, Explosions, Innocent People dying!
These are the consequences of the barbaric actions
Of those wishing to impose their will.
They retaliate against those whose beliefs
Do not match theirs, bringing endless suffering
To the world around them. It is a contest for power:
“Let’s see who can most spread fear and
Terror! Who can best destroy the world!
Who can better intimidate the people!
Who can demonstrate being most cunning!
Who can undermine trust and confidence!
Who can replace life with death! Progress
With regression! Efficiency with paralysis!
Yes! Let’s see who’s the boss! Let’s see how
Vulnerable you are and how invincible I am!
Let’s see how I can shatter your comfort and
Peace of mind, and replace them with a confused
State of panic! Let’s see how I can devastate,
Destroy, and annihilate, reducing the world to rubble!”
What is all this nonsense about? Aren’t we all human beings?
Aren’t we brothers in pleasure, pain, hope, and despair?
Don’t we have the same fears, the same dreams?
Don’t we cringe in front of danger and misery?
Don’t we all have a free will that needs to be respected?
Yes! Cain! You’re killing your brother Abel all over again!

Numerous studies have shown that lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) is beneficial for slowing the progression of glaucoma. While many studies have demonstrated the IOP-lowering effect of cataract surgery in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), few studies have specifically evaluated patients with low tension glaucoma (LTG). LTG patients are defined as a group of open-angle glaucoma patients with an untreated IOP that is in the normal range of 8-21mmHg. This study seeks to evaluate the effect of cataract surgery on IOP in LTG patients as compared to those with POAG.
A multi-center retrospective chart review of adult patients at Northwestern Memorial Hospital and Loyola University Medical Center who underwent uncomplicated cataract surgery from January 1, 2010 to January 1, 2017 was performed. The patients were subdivided into POAG and LTG. Patients who had a history of prior intraocular surgery, or surgery for glaucoma performed at the same time as cataract surgery, were excluded from the study. Primary outcomes measured include visual acuity (VA), IOP, and number of glaucoma medications pre-operatively and one year post-operatively. Statistical analysis was performed using the paired Student’s t test.
Eighty-two eyes (59 patients) with LTG, 91 eyes (68 patients) with POAG, and 51 eyes (37 patients) without glaucoma (controls) were analyzed. Mean VA (logMAR) improved significantly in all groups (-0.24 in the LTG group; -0.19 in the POAG group; -0.44 for controls; p<0.00001 for each). Mean IOP at 1 year post-operatively decreased significantly across all groups (-0.9mmHg in the LTG group, p=0.023; -1.2mmHg in the POAG group, p=0.001; -1.1mmHg in the control group, p<0.00001). The number of glaucoma medications did not significantly change in either the LTG or POAG group (p=0.148 for the LTG group; p=0.237 for the POAG group).
Cataract surgery in LTG, POAG, and control patients resulted in statistically significant visual improvement and IOP reduction at one year. This study is limited by its small sample size, retrospective nature, and brief follow up period. Further investigation is necessary to determine the long term effects of cataract surgery on IOP and outcomes in glaucoma patients, particularly LTG patients.
This is an abstract that was submitted for the 2018 ARVO Annual Meeting, held in Honolulu, Hawaii, April 29 - May 3, 2018.

Floor to Ceiling Screens
Floor to ceiling screens are 54mm thick and the maximum width per panel is 1200mm wide. The screen can be completely solid either upholstered in fabric or wallpapered, fully glazed or a combination of both. The full height screens are a perfect alternative to drywall partitioning and glazed internal shopfronts. The floor to ceiling system can also accommodate electrical, voice and data points in various ways depending on the requirement on site.
The advantages to using this full height partitioning system is that the panels don’t damage the ceiling or floor when installed, they can be used over and over again as they are modular. Cliplok 54 is also considered a furniture item according to the Income Tax Act, which means they are tax deductible. Essentially an investment that pays for itself.

Leeds Grand Theatre – until 30 October 2021
Reviewed by Dawn Smallwood
Opera North in collaboration with Phoenix Dance Theatre is currently presenting Bernstein’s Double Bill: Trouble in Tahiti and West Side Story Symphonic Dances. The programme opens with Trouble in Tahiti, a seven-scene opera, and is set to the composer’s lyrics. It is about a typical suburbia American family having “it all” and with a generic claim that they are all living “the American dream”.
However, looking closely, it isn’t what it appears with cracks in the marriage which is intensified with boredom, delusion and dissolutions. Both Quirijn de Lang and Sandra Piques Eddy, who portray the couple, Sam and Dinah, express and questions emotively and eloquently their problems and struggles throughout. One can think of the issues around patriarchy and matriarchy particularly gender roles in family and society.
The production is excellently staged with direction from Matthew Eberhardt and conducted by Antony Hermus. The staging, by the creative team, is excellent particularly its life size promotion of the adverts depicting the needs of a typical suburbia American family. Trouble in Tahiti has that perfect appearance until one looks closer then realises that it’s somewhat different and Bernstein maybe is encouraging for all to see it in different perspectives.
After the interval, there is a 10-minute dance interlude, Halfway and Beyond, set to Khadijah Ibrahim’s spoken word and choreographed by Dane Hurst. Evocative and provocative movers are performed by the very talented dancers from the Phoenix Dance Theatre. This is a taste of what is about to come and audiences are encouraged to reflect on the decisions and actions.
West Side Story Symphonics Dances follow and is set to Bernstein’s musical score of West Side Story. It is set in South Africa in the 1950s and 1960s where Apartheid reigned and the community attempts to live in unity is only suppressed and undone by the Apartheid’s Government laws particularly their control in line with the Pass Laws Act and Group Area Acts.
The dances through movement explore the challenges the community face with its emotions and complications of what is set around them in the face of adversity and tragedy. The excellent dance production is very thought provoking and is eventually expressed with a variety of movements which are coordinated and choreographed by Dane Hurst, the company’s new Artistic Director with support from the excellent dancers.
Both Opera North and Phoenix Dance Theatre have done the three productions proud and offer a lot to think about how one sees the life in the world from a variety of perspectives. It is evident that there are challenges ahead and one needs to continue to keep rethinking and revisiting if yearning for a more belonging and unity.
Bernstein Double Bill is an excellent programme with a lot to offer ”from the “heart”.

We haven’t traveled much at all since 2010, when we logged in over 19,600 miles doing book signings and research for our book about art retreats, Destination Creativity. Since then, we’ve hit the road just a couple of times because, frankly, I was totally burnt out on traveling. Forty-two days on the road will do that to you when you’re someone who loves being at home, working in the office and the studio. Not to mention sleeping in your own bed.
But here lately I’ve begun to feel antsy. You’ll remember my conversation with Becki Smith, who agrees with me that this area isn’t the most inspiring place in the world (can you hear me snorting?) and that it’s imperative you get away every once in a while. Yes, indeed. The problem for most of us is managing to do this without taking out a loan; travel isn’t cheap, not unless you like to camp. Which I most definitely do not. Me + traveling? If there’s no flush toilet and bed with clean sheets, I’d rather stay home.
So what to do? Aha! There is a solution: The Day Trip. Sure, sure, it’s not a trip to Paris or a week at a resort, but it can recharge your creative batteries, and it’s a really nice way to see new stuff without going into debt. So last week, wanting to do something for our anniversary beyond just more home improvement projects (I bought him a brand-new front door that will be installed, with luck, this week), we hit the road to San Angelo, Texas, about an hour and a half away.
I wasn’t expecting much–the only times I’ve ever been to San Angelo have been for various sporting events, so pretty much the only parts I’ve seen are the stadium and some high school gymnasiums. And, oh, yeah: the bordello. Yes, indeed: there is Miss Hattie’s, now a restaurant, once a house of ill repute. At some point, it was a museum (I’m not sure if it still is or not), and I visited on a day when there was no one there but me, all alone, walking up the rickety stairs in the semi-dark, hearing creaks and moans that were sinister rather than suggestive–you know how your mind works when you’re alone in a dim, dusty building filled with ghost stories (I think someone was once shot and killed there) if not actual ghosts. Yikes. Totally creepy in a this-is-fun-but-let’s-not-stay-too-long-OK? way.
The purpose of this recent trip wasn’t to visit museums of any sort, though: it was so my husband could photograph water lilies. San Angelo has an international water lily collection, and we’d heard about it and seen other people’s gorgeous photographs, so we braved the 100-degree heat so he could get these:
Well worth the sweating, to be sure. The bonus for me was the stencil on the walls around the ponds, which is perfect for an appliqué on SoulWear:
And then we wandered around the downtown area, stopping in at an old-fashioned soda fountain-turned-coffee shop and a winery and finding out that there’s a monthly art walk and regular open galleries at The Old Chicken Farm Art Center. Amazing! And less than two hours away (needless to say, we don’t have either an art walk or a collection of galleries here, so this is rather a big deal). We’re planning more trips this summer, with photos and maybe meeting some of the artists and, well, who knows? It’s like a whole little inspiring world right down the road.
So if you’re feeling the summer doldrums, needing inspiration and maybe a little nudge, check to see what’s within driving distance of where you live. Maybe you’re lucky and can find dozens of things to see and do right in your own backyard. Maybe you’re like me and will have to dig a little. But if I can find a gem like this close enough for a day trip, I’m thinking you’re bound to be able to turn up something. We’d love to hear about it–let us know where you’re heading to get out of town this summer~~

"We think we know the ones we love." So Pearlie Cook begins her indirect and devastating exploration of the mystery at the heart of every relationship: how we can ever truly know another person.
It is 1953 and Pearlie, a dutiful young housewife, finds herself living in the Sunset District in San Francisco, caring not only for her husband's fragile health but also for her son, who is afflicted with polio. Then, one Saturday morning, a stranger appears on her doorstep, and everything changes. All the certainties by which Pearlie has lived and tried to protect her family are thrown into doubt. Does she know her husband at all? And what does the stranger want in return for his offer of a hundred thousand dollars? For six months in 1953 young Pearlie Cook struggles to understand the world around her, and most especially her husband, Holland.
Pearlie's story is a meditation not only on love but also on the effects of war, with one war recently over and another coming to a close. Set in a climate of fear and repression–political, sexual, and racial–The Story of a Marriage from bestselling author Andrew Sean Greer, portrays three people trapped by the confines of their era, and the desperate measures they are prepared to take to escape it. Lyrical and surprising, The Story of a Marriage looks back at a period that we tend to misremember as one of innocence and simplicity.

Looking for authentic Italian food in Orange County? Casa Barilla South Coast Plaza has arrived! Barilla Pasta has been a staple in my home for as long as I can remember and now this brand has restaurants in both New York and Southern California.
Rock and Brews is a fun experience and, also, the food and drinks are delicious. The restaurant chain’s owners include Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons of KISS. The decor and overall experience is definitely rock and roll, but it isn’t just a touristy gimmick. Everything about it was great and I’ll be happy to go back again, even when I’m not in ‘tourist mode.’


Instrument supports, also known as instrument stands, are devices fabricated from small bore piping used to support process instrumentation such as temperature sensors, flow meters, etc. We offer a complete line of adjustable instrument support components which, when combined, will create various configurations to your exact requirements or individual needs. We also provide custom instrument stands per your individual specifications. The designs are only limited by the imagination of the engineer and designer, as literally thousands of different designs have been used for special purposes.
The system is comprised of components which are combined to construct a support. If you do not find a standard component to meet your specific needs, we can fabricate one to fit your application. Both vertical and horizontal movement must be evaluated. When Instrument supports vertical movement is small, the use of simple hangers should be adequate. Instrument supports devices which transfer the loads from the pipe or the structural attachment to the supporting structure or equipment.

Tina sent this lovely textual textile triptych. Her work arrived in the mailbox on my midwest front porch in absolutely pristine condition, despite having been posted bare naked. As if the Kwan Yin of Mail Art protected them on their voyage. Exhibiting definite elements of visual poetry, these works are meticulously crafted. Her technique is outstanding: It takes steady hand-eye coordination to select, compose, and sew pieces like this -- pieces that include a hefty amount of antique and vintage papers. Not to mention fierce composure to allow them to wing their way unprotected by an envelope!
Molte grazie, Tina!

The Browns enter the game with the same 3-8 record this season, fresh off a 20-14 win over Pittsburgh last week.
In fact, this game could have some draft implications should the two teams finish the season with the same record.
For Oakland, the biggest need is to figure something out defensively, as Oakland continues their historically bad defensive stretch. The good news is that the Browns are coming to town, but the bad news is that rookie quarterback Brandon Weeden can throw the ball a little bit and he's beginning to find some exciting receivers on the outside.
The big question this week is whether the Raiders will show some pride as they close out this season because if the last few weeks are any indication, the answer is no.


World Bulletin / News Desk
The İstanbul Metropolitan Municipality began to implement a bus lane in certain areas of the city on Monday, with a massive endeavor by traffic police to counter widespread violations of the new rules.
The lane, only for the use of public transport vehicles, has been put into effect to improve and increase public transportation on the routes of Aksaray-Millet Street-Topkapı and between the Şirinevler and Mahmutbey neighborhoods as pilot areas.
Once the lane has been successfully implemented in those areas, the municipality plans to add new routes to the project, such as Topkapı-Aksaray-Taksim, Kızıltoprak-Bostancı-Tuzla, Beşiktaş-Maslak and Yenikapı-Başakşehir.
According to a statement released by the İstanbul Metropolitan Municipality, the bus lane project, which is being implemented in many developed countries, helps people save time and money. “The project will be launched in many parts of the city if it is used by the majority of the people,” the statement added.
On the first day of the implementation, traffic police gave warnings to many drivers who made improper lane changes and who insisted on driving in lanes reserved for the use of buses and minibuses. Many vehicles parked improperly in lanes in which buses and minibuses were supposed to drive were towed and transferred to city parking lots. Drivers who violate the bus lane rules will be identified with the help of an electric control system and fined.
Only İstanbul Transportation Authority (İETT) public buses, minibuses and taxis can use the bus lane between the hours of 7-10 a.m. and 4-8 p.m., when traffic is very congested. There are estimated to be more than 17,000 bus passengers during the bus lane hours. Moreover, according to calculations, if all car drivers switched to taking the bus on the implemented routes, they could save 650,000 liters of gas yearly in total and significantly decrease carbon dioxide emissions.
Most of the people who use public transportation are very content with this new project and say that the hardships and density during their commute cause great problems in the morning and that they hope this project will get good results.
Drivers say they are not accustomed to this new project yet. Tradespeople complain about the implementation, stating that they will have problems loading their goods, adding that the infrastructure for this implementation should have been planned better.

A 1,470 m² solar thermal collector field provides hot water for the mashing process in the brewery Goess, Austria. The mashing process has been changed to a low-temperature-process by integrating additional heat exchanger plates. Hot water is now used instead of steam, which allows better renewable energy integration.
Source: AEE INTEC
The project has been realised in the frame of the FP7-project SolarBrew, where Goess has been the first of three HEINEKEN-breweries to be equipped with a large solar thermal collector field. The other two breweries in Vialonga, Portugal and Valencia, Spain are currently in the planning and implementation phase. The total installed capacity of these plants will be 5.08 MWth corresponding to a 7,270 m² collector area.

‘Alien’ species are organisms that have been transported from one part of the world to an area beyond their natural range. This type of species introduction is often due to human transportation and alien species have gained a reputation for being destructive and threatening to biodiversity. This, however, is not always the case, and example of which is Clathrus archeri, or Octopus Stinkhorn, a fungus native to Australia and Tasmania.
Hitching a ride
I was fortunate enough to visit Warwickshire Museum, which holds in its stores the first County record for this species. It is not known exactly how the fungus was transported to the UK, although there is discussion of its spores hitching a ride in bales of wool or in the backpacks of soldiers in the First World War. Alongside Warwickshire, Clathrus archeri has been found in Hampshire, Kent, Surrey and Sussex but in no instances has it started to damage local environments or effect wildlife.
These kinds of collections are vital as they help us keep track of historic changes in distribution. This can be especially important when trying to stop the spread of invasive species such as Floating Pennywort (Hydrocotyle ranunculoides). There are other instances where alien species have naturalised, such as Sweet Chestnut (Castanea sativa) or Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) but unlike both of these species, the Octopus Stinkhorn, although not poisonous, has a foul smell of rotting flesh.

Herb-Rubbed Smoke-Roasted Turkey BreastSteven Raichlen
The herb spice rub creates a flavorful crust that keeps the turkey juicy on the inside. Smoke-roasting the turkey breast adds a light smoky flavor.
(Note: Do not brine the turkey if it has already been injected with a salt solution prior to sale or is advertised as kosher.)

Herb-Rubbed Smoke-Roasted Turkey Breast
- Advance Prep: 2 hours for dry-brining the turkey breast
- Active Prep: 15 minutes
- Grill Time: 1 to 1 ½ hours
- Total Time: 3 hours, 45 minutes
- Yield: Serves 6 to 8
- Method: Smoke-roasting / indirect grilling
- Equipment: Can be cooked on a charcoal or gas grill. You’ll also need: hardwood chunks or chips (if using the latter, soak for 30 minutes in water, then drain)
- 1 3-pound rolled netted boneless turkey breast
- 2 tablespoons poultry seasoning
- 4 teaspoons coarse salt (kosher or sea)
- 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage
- 1 teaspoon freshly and finely grated lemon zest
- Extra virgin olive oil for rubbing
- 4 tablespoons melted butter for basting
1: Thaw the turkey breast in the refrigerator if needed. Place it in a jumbo heavy-duty resealable plastic bag.
2: Make the rub. Place the poultry seasoning, pepper, rosemary, sage, and lemon zest in a bowl and whisk to mix.
3: Brush the turkey breast with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season the turkey on all sides with the herb rub. Let marinate in a baking dish in the refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours.
4: Set up your grill for indirect grilling and preheat to medium (350 degrees). Brush or scrape the grate clean and oil well.
5: Place the breast in the center of the grill, skin side up (if it has a skin side). Brush once with melted butter. Add the wood chunks or chips to the coals (or place in the smoker box of your gas grill). Close the grill lid.
6: Smoke-roast the turkey until the skin is golden brown and the turkey is cooked through, 1 to 1 1/2 hours, replenishing the coals as needed if using charcoal—see page 000. You’re looking for an internal temperature of 165 degrees. Baste the breast with melted butter every 20 minutes, and baste one final time after the breast comes off the grill. Note: If the skin starts to brown too much, loosely tent the breast with foil. Do not wrap it tightly or you’ll make the skin soggy.
7: Transfer the turkey breast to a cutting board or platter. Cut off the net with scissors. Let rest for 5 minutes before carving. It’s delectable hot or cold.


The Anaheim-based Greater Los Angeles Area office of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-LA) is jumping into the controversy involving neo-Nazis harassing worshipers at a Jewish synagogue in Riverside.
As the Riverside Press-Enterprise reports, more than 20 organizations, including CAIR-LA, plan to stage a counter-protest to a neo-Nazi rally scheduled for Oct. 24. The Muslim civil liberties and advocacy organization joined the Islamic Center of Riverside and the Islamic Society of Corona/Norco today in condemning the neo-Nazis who recently displayed flags with Nazi swastikas to harass and intimidate worshipers attending services at Temple Beth El.
"We condemn any attempts to intimidate or harass peaceful worshipers who were practicing their right to freely worship at Temple Beth El," said Hussam Ayloush, CAIR-LA executive director, in a statement from his organization. "We stand by our Jewish neighbors and reiterate our offer of sympathy, support and friendship."
Ayloush said Muslim community leaders and representatives also plan to visit Temple Beth El to show their support for the congregants.

"The City of Riverside and its residents remain united in the face of such bigotry," added Dr. Mustafa Kuko, religious director of the Islamic Center of Riverside, in the same statement.
Members of the National Socialist Movement are planning to protest illegal immigration at a Riverside day-labor site on Oct. 24. A previous rally there Sept. 26 led to scuffles between neo-Nazis and counterprotesters, the Press-Enterprise has previously reported.
The daily newspaper's follow-up report on the planned counter-protest quotes rabbi Suzanne Singer, whose mother survived Auschwitz, saying the neo-Nazis' demonstration outside her temple was "totally sickening and really scary."
She also expressed fears that, as in economically struggling Germany of the 1930s, people in recession-plauged inland areas are looking for someone to blame for their economic difficulties and may thus be drawn to the neo-Nazi ideology.

McALLEN - Home improvement retail store Home Depot and RGV’s Habitat for Humanity partnered up to help Juan Antonio Cocio, a Vietnam War veteran residing in McAllen, TX.
Juan Antonio Cocio served in the Vietnam War from 1967- 69 who suffers from post traumatic stress (PTSD). That’s when Pharr’s Home Depot store no.506 and RGV’s Habitat for Humanity got to work on the veteran’s home.
“Through the Home Depot Foundation ‘Celebration of Service’ campaign, we are helping out veteran Juan Antonio Cocio.” said Herman Ochoa, Home Depot assistant store manager of Pharr. “We’re basically doing some beautification of his lawn, installing a new air conditioning unit, cleaning debris, planting plants and building a privacy fence in his backyard,” said Ochoa.
Corporal Cocio’s PTSD can be amplified by his neighbor’s dog which is why the privacy fence is needed.
The McAllen project is part of the Home Depot Foundation’s ninth annual ‘Celebration of Service’ season to improve the homes and lives of U.S. military veterans.
The ‘Celebration of Service’ campaign first identifies a veteran in need in which the store applies for a grant. Cpl. Cocio was awarded nearly $5,000 dollars that was used to purchase all materials needed for the project.
“It’s great to work for an organization like Home Depot that allows us to give back to the community by allowing us to give our time, resources and energy back to the community to help great causes like the veterans,” said Ochoa.
The campaign’s season runs Sept. 19 to Nov. 11 Veteran’s Day. The U.S. retail store has helped transform over 45,000 homes and facilities for veterans throughout the country.
“The team depot foundation is very excited to announce that they have pledged by the year 2025 that half a billion dollars will go towards veterans’ causes and we’re just happy to be a part of it,” said Ochoa.
Six out of the seven stores located in district 160 from Laredo to Brownsville will be working on a veteran project this season.
The company has also announced a new theme, Operation Surprise that will surprise a nominated veteran with a special transformation. The winner will be announced on Veteran’s day.

The foreign ministers of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states expressed their support for the Yemeni Presidential Leadership Council’s call to start negotiations with the Houthi militias with the aim of establishing peace in Yemen, the council said in a statement on Thursday.
“The Council expressed its full support for the Presidential Leadership Council and its supporting entities to enable it to exercise its duties in implementing effective policies and initiatives that would achieve security and stability in Yemen,” the statement read.
The GCC council also welcomed the Yemeni Presidential Leadership Council’s call to start negotiating with the Houthis under the supervision of the United Nations to reach a final and comprehensive political solution, in a way that preserves Yemen’s unity and integrity, respects its sovereignty and independence and rejects any interference in its internal affairs.
The joint statement came after the minister’s meeting in Saudi Arabia’s capital Riyadh.
Earlier on Thursday, Yemeni President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi announced his decision to transfer his powers to the newly formed Presidential Leadership Council.
Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman met with the newly formed council and the Kingdom urged the Yemeni body to start negotiations with the Houthis under UN auspices to end the war.

The Community Foundation, a local non-profit dedicated to improving the quality of life in Tompkins County through enduring philanthropy, has enabled the funding of three major public amenities for the redesigned Ithaca Commons pedestrian mall.
The Ridenour Family Fund of the Community Foundation in memory of Layel and Nan Ridenour provided funding for a planter and bench area. The new Commons will feature twelve different stand-alone clusters of public amenities, trees, and greenery. Each area has a sixteen-foot-long ground level planter, new shade trees, and a large public bench. Some will also have movable chairs and public art. These areas are a core part of the Commons project and will be built into phase three this winter and spring, with trees being planted in the spring based on weather and growing conditions.
The Hartnett Fund of the Community Foundation provided funding for an outdoor reading room on the new Commons. The Downtown Ithaca Alliance (DIA) was inspired by an intriguing and dynamic project located in the heart of New York City: Bryan Park’s HSBC Reading Room. The DIA will create a similar, albeit smaller, version of this reading room. Utilizing one of the planter and bench areas, the DIA will install umbrellas, moveable racks and shelves with books and periodicals, and signage to help residents and visitors enjoy this uniquely urban experience. The DIA will host an annual opening reception.
The Community Foundation’s Myrtle Dee Nash Fund provided funding for animal tracks as well as an additional planter and bench area. Families and children are important users of the Ithaca Commons. The new Commons has been designed to include a scattered site attraction for children and families: animal footprints colorized and engraved into paving tiles as a permanent installation. Each set of footprints will have an identifying plaque (rabbit, raccoon, deer, fox, bear, etc.) and the project will have a central sign near the playground urging families to explore the Commons to look for each set.
When the City of Ithaca opened bids for the Commons redesign project, the phase three construction package was substantially over budget. In response, the City proposed to eliminate several planned elements, including the above items as well as the community playground, interactive touchscreen kiosks, and holiday lighting. The City and the Downtown Ithaca Alliance agreed to work together to seek to restore as many of these deleted items as possible through a private-sector “Enhancing the Commons” donor campaign. The campaign has raised a total of $161,500 and has successfully re-secured these desired public amenities.

Immerse yourself in the culture of Catalunya
CinemaAttic is presenting the first ever Catalan Film Festival in Scotland. It's in association with Scotland's Catalan Centre, and seeks to showcase the vibrant culture of Catalunya through the art form of cinema.
The Festival brings together masterpieces of Catalan cinema, alongside new talents emerging in the region. The festival will be offering, in five different venues throughout Edinburgh, 9 nights of feature films, documentaries, the best of Catalan short films and a conference by an Edinburgh-based Scottish author. Every film will only be shown once and exact timings can be found through the CinemaAttic website, or through the booking system, Eventbrite.
An image of the programme of the 1st Catalan FIlm Festival Scotland
30th November: Bicycle, spoon, apple (2010) by Charles Bosch Venue: Summer Hall
This documentary focuses on the life of Pasqual Maragall, former Mayor of Barcelona and president of Catalunya, and his struggle to fight Alzheimer's Disease.
16th December: Black bread (2010) by Agustí Villaronga Venue: Cameo Cinema
This critically acclaimed film has won thirteen Gaudi awards, and nine Goya awards, including Best Film, Best Director, and Best Screenplay. It's an atmospheric piece of storytelling set in post-Civil War Catalunya.
And in case you're wondering how the Festival fits in with the desire of some of those living in Catalunya to become independent from Spain, the organisers are very clear that there is absolutely no political agenda in opening up the Festival.
Instead, the aim of Scotland's Catalan Centre is to promote the Catalan language and culture in Scotland, and this Festival contributes to that through sharing Catalan cinema, which the Centre consider to be one of the most important cultural expressions of any society.
So whether you're a regular visitor to Catalunya, or a complete stranger, the films will hold something new and interesting for you.

You can win some money. BetOnline has released their early betting odds for the upcoming WWE Night of Champions 2023 premium live event next weekend.
You can see the odds below:
Vacant WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match:
Seth Rollins -1000 vs. AJ Styles +500
Cody Rhodes +120 vs. Brock Lesnar -160
Undisputed Tag Team Championship Match:
Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn (champions) -550 vs. Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns & Solo Sikoa +325
WWE Intercontinental Championship Match:
Gunther (champion) -5000 vs. Mustafa Ali +1000
WWE Raw Women’s Championship Match:
Bianca Belair (champion) -200 vs. Asuka +150
For reference, a moneyline bet is when you bet on only one team to win. Let’s say the two teams are the Browns (+150) and the Steelers (-110). The +150 means you’ll win $150 if you place a $100 bet and the Browns win. The -110 means you’ll need to bet $110 to get a $100 payout if the Steelers win.
The only mini-surprise that I see is that Brock Lesnar is a slight favorite over Cody Rhodes. This probably means that they’re leaning towards doing a rubber match later this year, which could be a way to get them through the summer program. Either way, there should be a fun card and I’m looking forward to it!

President Donald Trump is continuing his assault on the House Freedom Caucus after ‘Obamacare 2.0’ failed to receive a vote last week. However, the President is receiving serious backlash on social media from legislators as well as concerned constituents regarding his comments.
This morning, President Trump tweeted the following, “The Freedom Caucus will hurt the entire Republican agenda if they don’t get on the team, & fast. We must fight them, & Dems, in 2018!”
Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), noted libertarian Trump supporter, tweeted in response, “It’s a swamp not a hot tub. We both came here to drain it. #SwampCare polls 17%. Sad!”
Rep. Justin Amash (R-MI), a Freedom Caucus stalwart and vociferous critic of President Trump, tweeted the following, “It didn’t take long for the swamp to drain @realDonaldTrump. No shame, Mr. President. Almost everyone succumbs to the D.C. Establishment.”
When Trump re-posted his tweet on Facebook for added emphasis, the top-rated comments echoed the sentiments of the liberty-minded Representatives.
One popular comment stated, “We must unite with the freedom caucus or be deadlocked totally. Open your eyes please Mr President. You are being mislead [sic]. Big time.”
“I love you DJT but you are wrong here,” another top comment stated. “The Freedom Caucus saved this country from a terrible bill and disastrous loses [sic] in congress. We will not accept Obamacare lite.”
“We have a chance, and possibly our last chance, to make real change. That’s what the Freedom Caucus is trying to do. Please work with them,” pleaded another Trump supporter.
President Trump has even indicated that he will work with Democrats rather than the Freedom Caucus on health care and other issues. It remains to be seen if Trump will listen to constituent feedback and reconsider his stance, or just continue perpetrating the status quo that he railed against on the campaign trail as President.

History of Barcelona
Barcelona is a city with a rich and fascinating history that stretches back over 2,000 years. From its Roman roots to its modern-day status as a hub of culture and commerce, Barcelona has played an important role in the development of Spain and the wider world. In this article, we will explore the history of Barcelona and its place in the world.
Barcelona was founded in the 3rd century BC by the Carthaginians, who named the city Barcino. The city was later conquered by the Romans in the 1st century BC, who established it as a center of trade and commerce. During the Roman era, Barcelona flourished as a city and many of its most iconic landmarks were built, including the famous Roman walls that still stand today.In the early Middle Ages, Barcelona was ruled by the Visigoths and then the Moors, before being conquered by the Franks in the 8th century.
During this time, Barcelona became an important center of trade and culture, with the city’s location on the Mediterranean making it a hub for maritime commerce.
In the 12th century, Barcelona became a center of Catalan nationalism and cultural revival. The city’s rulers, the Counts of Barcelona, established a powerful and independent state that would eventually become the Kingdom of Aragon.
During this time, Barcelona grew in power and influence, with the construction of many of its most iconic buildings, including the Cathedral of Santa Eulalia and the Palau de la Generalitat.In the 19th century, Barcelona became a center of industrialization and modernization.
The city’s textile industry boomed, and the city’s population grew rapidly as workers flocked to the city. During this time, Barcelona also became a center of political and social activism, with the rise of labor unions and anarchist movements.In the 20th century, Barcelona was at the forefront of the Spanish Civil War, which saw the city come under attack from the forces of General Franco.
The city suffered greatly during the war, with many of its iconic buildings destroyed or damaged.In the years following the war, Barcelona underwent a period of rapid growth and modernization. The city hosted the 1992 Summer Olympics, which brought significant investment and development to the city. Today, Barcelona is a vibrant and dynamic city, known for its architecture, culture, and cuisine.
In conclusion, the history of Barcelona is a fascinating story of conquest, rebellion, and renewal. From its Roman roots to its modern-day status as a cultural and economic hub, Barcelona has played an important role in the development of Spain and the wider world. Whether you are a history buff or just looking to explore a beautiful and vibrant city, Barcelona has something to offer everyone.

Thomas Sankara: Speeches from the Burkina Faso Revolution
Thomas Sankara led the revolution of 1983 to 1987 in Burkina Faso. In the five speeches contained in this pamphlet, he explains how the peasants and workers of this West African country established a popular revolutionary government and began to fight the hunger, illiteracy and economic backwardness imposed by imperialist domination, and the oppression of women inherited from millennia of class society. In so doing, they have provided an example not only to the workers and small farmers of Africa, but to those of the entire world.
"Our revolution in Burkina Faso draws on the totality of man's experiences since the first breath of humanity. We wish to be the heirs of all the revolutions of the world, of all the liberation struggles of the peoples of the Third World. We draw the lessons of the American revolution. The French revolution taught us the rights of man. The great October revolution brought victory to the proletariat and made possible the realization of the Paris Commune's dreams of justice." — Thomas Sankara, October 1984

Kenya’s presidential election re-run rescheduled
The re-run was to take place on 17 October, but a French firm whose technology is being used for the polls said it would not be ready in time for that date.
NAIROBI - Kenya’s presidential re-run has been rescheduled for 26 October, the election board said on Twitter on Thursday, a day after a detailed Supreme Court judgment laid out the reasons why the court had nullified last month’s poll.
The election board had originally said the re-run would take place on 17 October, but a French firm whose technology is being used for the polls said it would not be ready in time for that date.
In August, Kenya’s Supreme Court nullified President Uhuru Kenyatta’s election win, citing irregularities, and ordered a new poll within 60 days, an unprecedented move in Africa where governments often hold sway over judges.
A row over a 2007 poll, which veteran opponent Raila Odinga challenged after being declared loser, was followed by weeks of ethnic bloodshed that killed more than 1,200 people. Kenya’s economy, the biggest in the region, slid into recession and neighbouring economies wobbled.
In a nation of more than 40 ethnic groups, tribal loyalties often trump policy at election time. Kenyatta’s Kikuyu is the biggest of Kenya’s tribes but still a minority. Odinga is a Luo.
Odinga’s strongholds include his ethnic heartland in the west; the coast, where many of the nation’s Muslims live; and the urban slums. Residents of all three areas feel neglected by central government.
Kenyatta, whose Kikuyu tribe has produced three out of Kenya’s four presidents, has his main support base in the central region.
Kenyatta and Odinga are both scions of political families. Kenyatta’s father, Jomo Kenyatta, was the nation’s founding president and had a long-running rivalry with Odinga’s father. Oginga Odinga was originally Kenyatta’s deputy but eventually left the government to unsuccessfully contest the presidency.
Raila Odinga has contested the last three elections and lost each time. After each one, he claimed the votes were marred by rigging. In 2013, the Supreme Court dismissed his petition.

Comparison of investment opportunities between Mexico and China
By Daniel Boulton
The possibilities of a country depends on the capacity of it´s industry to add value at a lower cost, develop new products and the way they do things. The competition among companies due to globalization, makes them change to adapt, searching for new countries to produce andobtain an advantage.
The goverments of the countries play a key role in the creation of comparative advantages through incentives, programs and encouranging local advantages for the different industries. Companies must be able to see the incentives a government is giving and has to think the country is reliable, goverments should make it easy for companies.
What makes a country to be atractive is:the size of the internal market and its growth, labour prices and quality, cost of transport, taxes, natural resources, the currency strenght, costs of tariffs and the culture of the society among many others.
The countries I am comparing are Mexico and China, two huge countries with many posibilities that we are going to explore in depth. In some areas mexico presents advantages and in otherdisadvantages.
In the 60s Mexico had a raising income of international money, specially from the United States, that where investing in manufacturing industry. Today the importance in the economy of the international money invested in comapanies is still very big, but its growing at a much lower rate. This is because asia has been growing at incredible rates, and since 1992 when china definitlyopened its markets, the growth of this country has not stopped.
The government policies applied by china seem to have been more succesful recently, and it seems as if they are more effective for atracting companies than the mexican policies. So, it is essential to know the comparative advantages of each country to see the future of this countries and how atractive can it be to invest in one oranother.
Labour costs: The great advantage of China over Mexico and many other developing countries. Low labour costs is what many companies are looking for in order to cut expenses and maximize profits. The salaries paid for semi-qualified workers in china are lower than mexico, this is why many companies that where before in mexico have now gone to china.
Infrastructure: Inthe 90s china invested huge amounts of money in railways, airports, roads and more, this was due to the economic plan of the chinesse government. All the country is now well comunicated for products transportation. In mexico there has been a lack of an economic plan to improve infrastructures which has limited the competiteveness of companies.
Geographic ubication: Both countries have a greatgeographic ubication. Mexico is right by the United States, biggest importer in the world, this means a great advantage fot companies settling them selves in Mexico. China has as neighbours japan, south korea, hong kong, malasya and India, a huge growing market. The international costs of transportation has been reduced, minimazing the mexican advantage of being next to the United States. But itstill has other advantages such as the time it takes to deliver, the distance, and problems that can occur in entering the United states main west maritim port, long iland. Even do mexico has this advantages, being ubicated in asia with so many raising economies can overcome this advantages. Both countries are in good ubication, although the dinamism of the asian region seems to be a better place toinvest in.
Natural resources: Both countries have plenty of natural resources to offer at low cost, such as electricity, water, petrol, land.
Qualified labour: qualified labour is an important asset as it improves efficiency and its necessary for some tasks. There is greater disponibility of this kind of workers in mexico and their cost are low in an international level altough this trend is...

Khartoum – Sudan has sent a flight carrying 30 tons of aid to quake-hit Syria, with army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan calling Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to offer support, officials said on Monday.
The supplies sent to Damascus, containing “30 tons of food, medical supplies, blankets and other materials”, followed a similar delivery of aid to Turkey on Friday, the foreign ministry in Khartoum said.
Burhan, who seized power in a 2021 military coup, called Assad “to offer condolences” after the 7.8-magnitude tremor on February 6.
On Monday, the confirmed death toll rose to 35 224 as officials and medics said 31 643 people had died in Turkey and at least 3 581 in Syria.
Khartoum maintained diplomatic relations with Damascus even after the 2011 suspension of Syria from the Arab League over bloodshed in its civil war.
Since the quake, Arab leaders have reached out to the long politically isolated Assad.
On Sunday, Emirati Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al-Nahyan visited Assad in Damascus after the UAE pledged tens of millions of dollars in aid.
Assad had earlier received a call from his Egyptian counterpart offering support, their first official exchange since President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi assumed office in 2014.
Similarly, the ruler of Bahrain, which re-established diplomatic relations with Syria in 2018, called Assad in their first official conversation in more than a decade.
