About this coffee
Antigua estates and small producers
1500 - 2000 masl
Bourbon, Typica, and Caturra
Antigua Valley, Sacatepéquez Department, Guatemala
January - May
The city of Antigua is in many ways a modern coffee Eden. It’s iconic, laid back, gorgeously ornate, and for a city of its size it is absolutely teeming with historic coffee infrastructure. Coffee from most of the Sacatepéquez department is known simply as “Antigua”, and their sugar profiles range from butterscotch to marzipan sweetness, and acids from lemonade-like piquancy to dessert wine or tangy dried fruit.
Guatemala’s best centralized wet mills and best boutique exporters are based in Antigua. There are thousands of farms in the area, from the city’s legacy estates to patchwork smallholder communities climbing most of the way up Volcán de Agua, one of three looming stratovolcanoes that seem to be visible from every street corner in town and play a large part in Antigua’s famous soil composition. Such a variety of producers begets coffees with endless combinations of microclimates, elevations and varieties. There is a lot to work with here, and a lot of talent.
“Los Volcanes SHB EP” is a blend of cherry from throughout the Antigua valley processed centrally at an historic wet mill in the Antigua valley owned by CAMEC. For the past few years the management of CAMEC’s wet mill has been overseen by Los Volcanes Coffee, a tight-knit processing and exporting team who expertise in agronomy and processing is interwoven throughout Guatemala, thanks to their many years of experience as cuppers, roasters, exporters, relationship managers, and educators. The founding team at Los Volcanes is known for breaking down a single farm’s harvest into hundreds of data points (compost formulas, genetics, shade variance, picking rates, fermentation times and temperatures, drying styles, and on and on) and re-building custom-tailored harvesting systems for farm managers based on their experience and cupping acumen. Naturally, over time, Los Volcanes began to co-manage farms with their supplier partners. Finally, a few years ago they were granted operation of a CAMEC’s wet mill, complete with adjacent coffee farm, and moved their headquarters there from Guatemala City. They now centrally process cherry from dozens of select farms and smallholder communities, bringing their fermentation precision to an unprecedented scale, and building incredibly delicious, affordable macro lots that present refined terroirs and consistent preparation.
Cherry is delivered daily from across the Antigua valley. Upon delivery it is inspected for uniformity, depulped, and fermented for up to 72 hours in a covered, temperature-controlled warehouse of ceramic tanks. Los Volcanes employs dedicated processing managers to specifically oversee the bulk fermentations. These local experts are calibrated by a combination of parchment density, temperature and smell to manage precise degrees of development and maintain consistency across batches of various volumes, temperatures, and humidity levels. After fermentation is complete, parchment is passed through a pressurized water siphon for cleaning and density grading, and then dried on the site’s large patio or in mechanical dryers. All centrally processed lots are sampled and cupped extensively by the Los Volcanes quality team so they can be profiled by sensory attributes and combined to present very precise final profiles.

Maggie Gallagher: World is More Concerned with Waffle Fries Than Gay Rights
It seems very strange to me that so many artists and people on the left are supporting the idea that to make art in the mainstream you have to have the right political opinions. This used to be considered the heart of McCarthyism: loyalty oaths for filmmakers as the condition forworking in the film industry. (These were imposed by the industry, not the government, remember, in response to public pressure).
I suspect this boycott will be a failure, like the boycott of Card’s video game and like the Chick-fil-A boycott, because most of the public is more concerned with questions such as whether those waffle fries are banging or not.

Department of Sociology, Anthropology, and PUBLIC HEALTH
The Department of Sociology, Anthropology, and Health Administration and Policy (SAHAP) is excited to announce their name has officially been changed to THE DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY, ANTHROPOLOGY, AND PUBLIC HEALTH (SAPH). The new name reflects the evolving nature of our department faculty composition and academic program emphases in the social dimension of health (we now have an undergraduate certificate across our three majors as well as a post-baccalaureate certificate in the Social Dimensions of Health).
Public Health is a recognized discipline that has been targeted for workforce capacity building by the U.S. Department of health and Human Services. Healthy People 2020 notes the need for public health infrastructure and the workforce demands in this area recommends that 4-year colleges and universities increase offerings in public health or related majors and/or minors. Our department has responded to this recommendation by weaving public health concern throughout each of our majors and scholarship/research. The Public Health track of the Department's Health Administration and Policy Program consistently is the most popular area of focus among our majors. The current pandemic we now face makes clear the importance of public health to population health globally.

The Highway code is a set of rules, guidelines and tips for road users in the UK, with information covering all aspects of the road network and how to use it safely. It’s put together by the Driving Standards Agency and the Department for Transport, and is regularly updated to reflect the current state of the roads and the rules governing them.
Britain’s Highway Code is an essential read for all road users – not just drivers. It helps all road users, including pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists, horse riders and car drivers, to use the road network safely. It’s mainly used by learner drivers to help with their theory and practical driving tests, but really it should be read thoroughly by everyone in the country, to make sure everyone knows what is right and wrong when using the road.
What’s in the Highway Code?
The Highway Code book is full of useful road-related advice for everyone in the UK, as well as the legal requirements and prohibited actions on Britain’s highways. Here’s a simple summary of the contents:
- 1. Rules for pedestrians
- 2. Rules for horse riders
- 3. Rules for cyclists and motorcyclists
- 4. Rules for car, van and lorry drivers
- 5. General advice on topics such as weather, parking, motorways, road works and level crossings
- 6. Road signs and marking, with their meanings
- 7. Signals from authority figures and other road users
- 8. Licence and riding/driving requirements
- 9. The law and penalties for breaking it
- 10. Vehicle maintenance, safety and first aid advice
While reading through the code, you’ll see some items are marked by the phrase ‘Must/Must not’ – these are the laws of the roads, and will result in prosecution if not followed properly. Some rules use the terms ‘should/should not’ or ‘do/do not’, which will not by themselves result in prosecution – but they could be used has evidence in court to establish liability.
Learning the Highway Code: top tips
Learner drivers will be very familiar with the Highway Code, and it’s certainly a massive help when taking the theory and practical driving tests – but it can be hard to remember all of those rules. Here are a few handy hints to help make learning the Highway Code easier.
- • Download the official Highway Code app, which includes the full contents, as well as quizzes and a learning tool that tracks your progress and tests your knowledge after each section.
- • Listen to the Highway Code audiobook – listening to the audio version on your headphones lets you get on with other tasks, and you can test yourself on what you’ve learned afterwards.
- • Follow the Highway Code on Twitter and Facebook to get frequent reminders of the most important advice in your social media feeds.
- • Find an online Highway Code quiz to test your knowledge – try reading through the book and taking a different quiz every day to make sure you’ve covered everything.
- • Get a friend to test you on specific subjects – like roundabouts, road markings or signs.
Where to read the Highway Code
It always used to be available just as a book, found in most bookshops – and that version is still available at a reasonable price, especially via online outlets. However the Highway Code is available is a huge variety of formats these days, and many of them are free.
Here are the ways to read the Highway Code:
- 1. Buy the book, in English, Welsh or Irish – note that the Northern Irish version is slightly different.
- 2. Buy an eBook for your preferred eBook reader.
- 3. Download the iOS or Android app.
- 4. Listen to the audiobook version.
- 5. Download the Highway Code pdf document for free.

I think I read this novel once before. Or, maybe not. Hard to tell since the Robicheaux novels are all the same. Burke is like Lee Child, he follows a formula (of sorts) but still puts out a real good story. I like Burke's novels better than Lee's.
Robicheaux is maudlin again. A local gal is on death row for killing the man who molested her and her twin sister when they were children. Robicheaux is dealing with longtime pal and former cop partner Clete Purcell. Clete is throwing scumbags off a low roof. One scumbag, a pimp, claims that Robicheaux's deceased mother was a whore and murdered by the police in 1968. Robicheaux gets more maudlin and starts investigating the claim.
Stories of Robicheaux's sad family background: drunken and brawling father killed on an oil rig in the gulf. Sad mom looking for love from other men and a pattern of running away, returning, and then never coming back.
Robicheaux finds New Orleans dirty cops involved in the 1968 murder. Robicheaux investigates to find people who were there. Robicheaux gets involved in local death sentence gal's case; Robicheaux wants gal freed or commuted. Things happen. More things happen. Button man is dangerous and scary. Clete is drunk. Robicheaux refers to twelve steps. Robicheaux clashes with people. Robicheaux blinded by rage. Manners are important. Robicheaux drives around Southern Louisiana.
1. Burke's talent for story telling, characters, and setting drives everything. The plot does not much matter for me. I think of it as a Twin Peaks story: the mystery is not the point.
2. But, I still need something going on in the plot. Burke just barely provides that.
3. White trash murderer love.
4. .45 ACP love.
5. Fishing and boating love.
6. Louisiana lingo love.
7. More rotten cops.
8. Recurring motifs: rotten politicians, white trash, stone-cold killers, dirty cops, characters speaking elliptically, sorrow of the past is present all the time.

An internal malfunction at a Waukesha industrial building caused a fire Monday night at the Reintjcs facility, 305 Travis Lane.
The Fire Department was called to the scene after an employee saw flames coming from an oil bath operation just after 8:45 p.m.
The department found "a working fire with heavy smoke conditions" when it arrived, according to a news release from Battalion Chief Joe Hoffman. The plant was evacuated and all personnel were accounted for, he said.
"Fire crews made an aggressive attack on the fire to knock down the main body of (the) fire while limiting damage to the myriad of operations and processes in the facility," Hoffman said.
Crews from three fire stations quickly brought the fire under control to limit damage to a small area of the facility, Hoffman said.
However, he said there was some minor smoke damage to the structure.
Hoffman said an employee was working with cooling parts in an oil bath when there was a malfunction in the operation that caused flames and heavy smoke to come from the oil bath.
Workers were allowed to return to work in unaffected areas, Hoffman said.
Hoffman said the City of Waukesha's Police and Fire Investigators are still determining the cause of the malfunction.
He added the facility is still verifying the extent of the damage and a cost estimate of the damages is also unknown.

Democratic Republic of Congo President Joseph Kabila has pledged to create a unity government to help stabilize the volatile country.
In a speech before parliament on Wednesday, he said the unity government "would soon be in place" and would include members of the opposition and civil society.
The president said he would take action on more than 600 recommendations that were drafted by government, opposition and civil society members who wrapped up three weeks of talks earlier this month.
He said his government's priorities would include restoring peace and improving the living conditions of citizens.
The DRC ranks near the bottom of the U.N. human development index. Eastern provinces have endured years of conflict that have displaced millions of people.
In his wide-ranging speech, Kabila also voiced frustration over the slow pace of peace talks between his government and the M23 rebel group.
On Monday, U.N. diplomats said the talks in neighboring Uganda had stalled. Negotiators said the two sides had reached agreement on several points but remained apart over proposed amnesty for the rebels.
M23 consists of rebel fighters who joined the Congolese army in a 2009 peace deal but later defected after complaining of poor treatment. Last year, the group took over territory in North Kivu province.
Kabila was re-elected in 2011 over opposition leader Etienne Tshisekedi.
However, a U.S.-based election monitor said the integrity of the polling had been "compromised" and that the true results may never be known.
In a 2012 report, the Carter Center said because of disorganization during and after the polling, it was impossible for the Congo's election commission to reconstruct the election results and produce a "faithful record of the will of the people."

You are a new mama, and this new life is offering so much joy, love, and uncertainty. Amongst all the new things that this transition to motherhood has brought to you, it can be difficult to think about what your body just went through. If you clicked this link, that means that you want to learn more about the importance of reflecting on your birth story.
What does “birth story” even mean?
When you hear “birth story,” what do you think of? Chatting with friends about the things no one told you about birth? Filling out the lines in your baby’s memorabilia book? The “facts” of how your child came into the world from start to finish?
I’d like to offer that there is another layer.
Underneath the details of the time you went into the operating room, or the number of times you threw up on the way to the birthing centre, there is your experience. This includes your perceptions, your excitements, your fears, your thoughts, and more. We don’t always reflect on these types of details within our own minds after giving birth. Even more, we do not reflect these details out loud with friends, family, or maybe a therapist. Goodness, it might not even feel like there’s time to go into all that!
Why reflecting on your birth story matters
Regardless of whether or not you experienced trauma related to the birth of your child, there can be memories that need processing. You don’t need to have perceived some great danger or loss to benefit from birth story reflection. But if you did, it’s important to notice that too.
With any birth, there is a period of healing after that includes physical, emotional, and spiritual healing. When we go through something as huge as bringing a child into the world, and don’t consider how we experienced it, we are leaving part of our healing behind.
In the space of reflection, it’s possible that we find that all the details are fully processed and integrated into our sense of self. But, my guess is that most of us will surprise ourselves to some extent.
Even when I worked through the birth stories of my two children using Birth Story Brave, the guide I published for reflection on the childbirth experience, I had several unexpected findings myself. The way I thought about and integrated the experiences into my new identity absolutely shifted as a result of taking time to do that work.
Using your birth story to heal
What we tell ourselves about the birth of our child forms the story that we tell ourselves and others. Telling ourselves stories is something we do throughout our entire lives. We form stories about ourselves or a situation, or about why things are the way they are. The thing about stories is that stories tend to define our view of life. They can either serve us well, or become obsolete and hold us back. If a story is not serving us well, reflecting on it, reframing it, and “writing” a new story can be an integral part of our healing. The stories we tell ourselves are an important piece of understanding our mental health, and our perinatal mental health is no exception to this!
For example: Imagine that a woman is now home with her newborn baby. During the course of her labor, which ended in a vaginal birth, she felt supported by her partner and was grateful to have a healthy baby. However, she received an epidural, which has something she hadn’t planned on getting, and she didn’t feel that one of her nurses listened to her very closely. The woman pushes any uncomfortable thoughts about the birth away, repeating to herself that she should just be thankful to be healthy and to have a healthy baby.
We hear this message often in our culture – that we should just be thankful things turned out the way they did. This is usually spoken by well-meaning friends and family. However, the problem with this is that it doesn’t validate the feelings of the person who gave birth, nor does it note the importance of their experience. It doesn’t provide an opportunity to tell the current story, place it in the context of all the other details, and start to think about it differently.
How to reflect and heal
We must create space through birth story reflection to allow some of our victories, disappointments, fears, and celebrations to be visible. This gives us a chance to acknowledge them and move forward. If the woman I mentioned earlier allows herself to feel disappointment and frustration, for example, she gives herself permission to experience the entirety of her birth story and what it meant to her.
I invite you, now, to think about your own birth stories and to experience them in full. Sometimes, the things we experienced were so powerful that we need some support in doing this. There is no shame in getting support – Postpartum Support International is a great resource. May your discoveries lead to your postpartum healing and help to build your postpartum identity.

Kirkby Stephen, and has the following inscriptions (in Latin):
(Round the edges.) • Here I Thomas Wharton do lie, with a spouse on each side ; Eleanor here in this space; there hath Anna her place. Lo, earth, take to thee the flesh and the bones which are thine, Gracious God! the souls Thou hast given receive Thou into Heaven.”
(On the east panel.)
Gaining a victory over the Scots, gives me my honours ;
In the Kirkby Stephen monument the figure of a bull, on the neck of which the effigy of Wharton rests, being vulgarly supposed to represent the devil in a vanquished posture, probably suggested the following witty but ungallant parody, which was written by Dr. Burn, joint author of the History of Cumberland and Westmorland:
“ Here I Thomas Wharton do lie,
And Nancy as cold as lead.
Who could my sad fortune abide ?
And another laid close on each side." His widow, Lady Anne, survived him about seventeen years. She resided at Healaugh, and firmly adhered to the Roman Catholic religion, in which she had been brought up.
As an illustration of its prevalence in Yorkshire, notwithstanding the severe measures adopted by Queen Elizabeth and the Bishops for its suppression, it may be stated that a list of recusants, sent by Archbishop Sandys to the Privy Council, October 28th, 1577, contained 157 names, including twenty-two prisoners in Hull and nine in York Castle; and in this list appears “ The Olde Ladye Wharton, wydowe, of Healaugh, hability (means) 500 marks per annum, or thereabouts."* She was not brought before the Commissioners, but the Archbishop used strong persuasions to induce her to conform without effect. She was buried at Healaugh on February 3rd, 1584-5.
THOMAS, THE SECOND LORD WHARTON, 1520-1572.
“The procedure of God, who disposes all things with gentleness, is to put religion into the mind by reasons, and into the heart by grace; but to try to put it into the mind and heart by violence and threats is not to put religion there but terror.”—PASCAL.
Thomas, the eldest son of Thomas, the first Lord Wharton, and Eleanor Stapleton, was born in 1520. He was 48 years of age when he came to the barony, and enjoyed the honour only four years. His early life was spent in the service of his father in border warfare. He was returned M.P. for Cumberland in 1545, and knighted the same year, made Sheriff of Cumberland, and acted as Deputy-Governor of Carlisle during his father's campaign in Scotland in 1547. With the progress of the Reformation under Edward VI. he had no sympathy, being a decided Roman Catholic.
He married Lady Anne, daughter of Robert Radcliffe, first Earl of Sussex, who bore him five children, viz.: (1) Philip, the third Baron, (2) Thomas, (3) Anne, who was married to William Woolrich, (4) Mary, and (5) Catherine.
Sir Thomas was chosen steward of the household of Princess Mary, and on her accession to the throne was sworn of the Privy Council. In 1554 he was returned M.P. for Hedon, Yorkshire, and the following year for Northumberland, and appointed Deputy-Warden for the east and west marches. When his first son was born, in 1555, he was named Philip, after his godfather, Philip II. of Spain (whom the Queen, herself half a
“Chapters of Yorkshire History,” by Cartwright, 1887, p. 149.
Spaniard, had married the year before), the deadly enemy of Protestant England, and the projector of the “Invincible Armada" for its conquest. It was the year in which the fires of Smithfield were kindled for the burning of heretics who would not submit to the authority of the Pope, or accept the dogmas of “the Church," but took the Bible as their "rule of faith, worship and manners." In this and the three following years 400 Protestant martyrs perished in England. Whatever may have been thought by the Whartons of the Marian persecution, Sir Thomas was rewarded by the Queen for his devotion to her interests with the grant of Newhall in Boreham, and other manors in Essex, He was a member of the Great Council of the North, and one of the witnesses of Mary's will (March 30th, 1558).
When Elizabeth became Queen, Sir Thomas was excluded from Parliament and the Privy Council. He was also committed to the Tower for having Mass celebrated at Newhall; and while in prison he lost his wife (June 7th, 1561), over whom, it is recorded, “great moan was made in the country." But, on his petition to the Queen begging for pardon, and stating that he had been ill and left with a large household, which grew disorderly and spoiled his goods for want of government, he was released and afterwards placed in some positions of trust.
The year after he succeeded his father in the barony a rebellion broke out in the North (1569), headed by the Earls of Northumberland and Westmorland. Their aim was to restore the Roman Catholic religion, release Mary Queen of Scots (then in the custody of the Earl of Shrewsbury), and place her on the throne. Coming to Durham, the rebels burnt all the English Bibles and Common Prayer-Books, and openly said Mass. · At first Lord Wharton appears to have hesitated whether to join or oppose the rebellion; but afterwards decided to remain loyal to the Queen. When urged to send help for its suppression, he wrote (November 24th)
to the Earl of Sussex that his tenants in Westmorland were destitute of horses and arms; that he was not able to make twenty able horsemen; was environed with malicious enemies bent to do him great displeasure ; and had no more than his household servants. Lord Scrope, who led the force for suppressing the rebellion, marched from Carlisle to Wharton Hall (December 17th), but hurried away in pursuit of the rebel lords. And when Wharton was actually setting out against them he had a dangerous fall from a horse, and thus gained neither the honour nor the obloquy of doing anything on behalf of the Protestant cause. In 1571 he sat in the House of Lords, and the year following died at his house in Canon Row, Westminster (June 14th, 1572), and was buried in the Abbey.
In that year took place the Massacre of St. Bartholomew, when ten thousand Huguenots were put to death in Paris, besides tens of thousands in the provinces, the Te Deum being afterwards sung at Rome by order of the Pope for the destruction of Christ's enemies, and a medal struck in commemoration thereof.
PHILIP, THE THIRD LORD WHARTON, 1555–1625.
In feelings, not in figures on a dial.
PHILIP J. BAILEY. Philip, the eldest son of Thomas, the second Lord Wharton, and Lady Anne, was born on June 23rd, 1555. The reason of his being called Philip has been already noticed. At the death of his father he was at the University of Cambridge. On June 20th, 1572, George, sixth Earl of Shrewsbury (brother of Lady Wharton of Healaugh), wrote from Sheffield: “I have just heard of Lord Wharton's death, and that the Earl of Sussex has the wardship of his son. His house and lands are near me, and my wife has a daughter of his years whom I mind to prefer in marriage. If his lordship will part with the young gentleman, I will give as much as another in marriage. Pray be a means between us to obtain this request, which my wife and I earnestly desire.” But the proposed match came to nothing
After attaining his majority he took his place in the House of Lords and attended its sittings for upwards of forty years, but took no part in its debates, nor was he in any way distinguished for his shining qualities or public services. He married at St. Mary Overy, Southwark, June 25th, 1577, Frances, eldest daughter of Henry Clifford, second Earl of Cumberland, who left her by his will 2,000 marks “ if she marrie a baron or a baron's son.” She brought him two sons—(1) George and (2) Thomas—and three daughters—(3) Margaret, (4) Eleanor, and (5) Frances. In the year of his marriage his name appears among the adventurers in the Cathay voyage (i.e. a ship going to China), each share being £25, which may be regarded as an indication of his being disposed to speculation and indulgence in reckless expenditure, which subsequently brought him into pecuniary difficulties.
He was made J.P. for Cumberland (1578) and several other counties; resided mostly at Canon Row, Westminster, and, after the death of his mother-in-law, occasionally at Healaugh. He often visited Skipton Castle, the seat of the Cliffords, and was sponsor at the baptism of the famous Anne, Countess of Pembroke, February 20th, 1590.
After the death of Lady Wharton in 1592 he married (1597) Dame Dorothy Colby, late wife of Sir Francis Willoughby (and previously wife of John Tamworth, squire of the body to Queen Elizabeth), on whom he made a settlement of £ 1,000 per annum out of Sinningthwaite and other lands, with entail to his elder son George, and remainder to his younger son Thomas.

pinterest. its such a great place to organize my likes. and its where I found this quote. and I've found it is such a great place to put this quote to the test and find balance. otherwise it would take over my life. but really, its such a great place to find what you love, put it all in one place, and then sit back and discover what you are drawn to. for me, its shingles on houses, white interiors, everyday photos of families, siding, and green. lots and lots of green (meaning plants). I'd live in a jungle if I could.
what do you think about this quote? possible? do you think your thoughts and actions change if you slowed down enough to do these things daily? I especially like the setting the timer one. this is so genius. such a great way to have something visual/audible to help me focus on one thing at a time.

Happy fall, my crafty friends, and welcome back to Weekly Scrapper. I’ve just returned home from our Sacramento show and I am happy to report that a fun time was had by all at the Creativity Center. Hugs to all those creative people that I had the privilege of meeting in person. I am getting a little melancholy knowing that there is only one show left for the year. I miss you already! If you happen to be in the area we would love to see you at our Ontario show, our final bravo of 2017.
Upon discovering this sweet Halloween layout on the Fancy Pants blog I knew I had to share it with you. Nicole was on fire with the new Spellbound collection! I love how she took advantage of the 6X6 paper pads by cutting out circles and carried that theme throughout the layout. What a great background for those spooktacular pics that you will be taking in two days. One can never have too many Halloween layouts, right?
I hope that you’ve been inspired to print out some of those adorable pictures from your phone and create that next page in your scrapbook. With a little help from our creative friend Nicole, you can crank out several pages in no time. Have a wonderful Halloween and don’tforget to take lots of pics.
Eret had me at cats. I am a serious cat lover – big or small, I love them all. I instantly fell in love with this artsy stamp set by Stampendous titled Whiskers. This stamp set is on my must-have list when I get to our Ontario show next week. This stamp is a nice size (3.75 X 5) and is perfect to cover an entire card front and still allow a bit of room for matting your image.
Many of the stamps created by designer Laurel Burch are perfect for the coloring enthusiast in us. This fun stamp is equally at home colored in Distress inks in brown tones or colored in a rainbow of bright colors for a totally different look, what’s not to love? I hope you’ve been inspired to break out you favorite stamps and coloring mediums and create something beautiful today. Be sure to check out Sparkle N Sprinkles blog for a complete supply list. All items used on this fun card can be purchased online at Sparkle N Sprinkle or if you at one of our shows I highly recommend stopping by the Sparkle N Sprinkle booth.
Would you believe that this sweet card started out as some scraps that were created by cleaning a brayer onto a piece of cardstock? Now that’s why we save our scraps, a true trash-to-treasure story. I love it when a beautiful card comes together this quickly.
There is something incredibly nostalgic and significant about the annual cascade of autumn leaves, so enjoy them while you can. I’d like to send out a warm hug to Elaine for showing us that quick and easy can be beautiful when you use your creativity. Click here and I will escort you over to her blog Craft-E-Place so you can take a closer look at how this darling card was created.
Are you scratching your head thinking “What am I going to make for dinner tonight?” If so, you are going to love these yummy easy-to-make roll-ups. They take about 20 minutes to prepare and 30 minutes to bake and you are done. I typically throw together a simple salad and, of course, some nice crusty Italian bread and I have happy campers at dinner time.
This is also a great recipe that can be made ahead of time, then when you are ready for dinner just throw it in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes and you’re good to go. Click here and I will be happy to take you over to spend some quality time with Julie so you can take notes and write down the recipe. I love that this recipe uses things that I always have on hand, making it that much more user-friendly. Enjoy!

Dwayne Samson pleads guilty to manslaughter in Phillip Boudreau's death
Crown says it will seek sentence in double digits at Aug. 11-12 hearing
A Cape Breton fishing boat captain has pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the death of Phillip Boudreau, in a case that has rocked the Nova Scotia village of Petit-de-Grat to its core.
Dwayne Matthew Samson was charged with second-degree murder in the death of 43-year-old Boudreau in 2013.
Eleven days were set aside for the trial Port Hawkesbury, but on Tuesday, the Crown said it intended to proceed with a manslaughter charge.
A jury has already found another crew member, James Joseph Landry, guilty of manslaughter in the case that's been dubbed "murder for lobster." He had been charged with the more serious charge of second-degree murder
Landry was given a 14-year prison sentence.
Crown attorney Shane Russell said he will seek a similar sentence for Samson.
"They're similar offences, similar facts, similar levels of moral blame-worthiness. Certainly the Crown's recommendation would be something in the double digits."
Samson's lawyer Nash Brogan said he'll be looking for something in the area of seven to nine years.
He said he plans to call expert evidence from a psychiatrist about what might have provoked the attack
"The people on this boat, for years they've been subjected to tremendous abuse by Mr. Boudreau, cutting traps and threats, over many years."
Samson is free on bail and has been living in Halifax. The court has given him permission to move back to D'Escousse until his sentencing hearing set for Aug. 11 and 12.
Justice Simon MacDonald ordered Samson not to leave his house during that time and warned him to to stay out of trouble.
According to an agreed statement of facts read in court, the crew of the Twin Maggies saw Boudreau at their traps that day and believed he was tampering with them.
They loaded a gun, and Samson asked Landry to shoot at Boudreau. One hit him in the leg.
According to the statement, which Samson agreed to, they ran at Boudreau's boat several times.
Samson was at the wheel when Boudreau fell into the water. They then gaffed Boudreau and dragged him out to sea.
At some point, Boudreau stopped struggling. He was tied to an anchor.
The Twin Maggies crew then resumed fishing their lobster traps, the statement of facts says.
Two other crew members aboard the Twin Maggies boat also face charges connected to the disappearance of Boudreau, whose body has never been found.
Samson's wife, Carla, owner of the lobster boat and Landry's daughter, faces a charge of accessory after the fact. Craig Landry, a third cousin of James Landry, is charged with accessory after the fact.

On November 4th, voters across the United States cast their ballots for the mid-term elections for federal, state and local candidate’s races.
In Maui County, Hawaii, voters passed an initiative that proposed a moratorium on the development, farming and cultivation of genetically engineered crops in their county. Like many others, we’re concerned about the potential consequences of this ban for the County and for farming in Hawaii. If enacted, it will hurt the local economy, as well as local farmers and home gardeners. We believe that people should be free to plant the seeds of their own choice whether those … Full Article »
Today the USDA officially closed its investigation of the detection of Genetically Engineered (GE) wheat in Oregon with the conclusion that there was no GE wheat that had made it into commerce. There are also no food safety concerns associated with the GE wheat found in Oregon. See the full comments below.
USDA’s report is welcome news for U.S. wheat industry
Today’s report by the USDA affirms that no genetically modified wheat is in commerce and that the commercial seed and grain supply does not contain genetically modified wheat. This finding is supported by extensive testing by USDA, state universities, Monsanto and others. The … Full Article »

Like many companies, we often advocate for policies we think are sound, and oppose those we think are not. And that advocacy sometimes includes support for campaigns about ballot initiatives.
For instance, we recently were part of a coalition that opposed state ballot initiatives in California and Washington State that would have imposed complex and confusing requirements for the mandatory labeling of GMO foods. We contributed a total of about $13.5 million to support coalitions that opposed these measures, while the total spent by those who shared our concerns was about $66 million. Like us, … Full Article »
Monsanto reiterated its full support to the U.S. wheat industry and regulatory authorities in the United States and wheat importing countries following the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s reported detection of the original Roundup Ready wheat trait, technically referred to as the MON71800 event, growing in a single unplanted field in Oregon.
Monsanto has provided a validated testing method for the original Roundup Ready wheat trait to the USDA, and, more recently, to government regulators in Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and the European Union as requested. The method will provide these governments with the opportunity to precisely and accurately test for the … Full Article »
Yesterday, the Washington Post published an editorial about the report of GM wheat being found in Oregon.
“It’s a sign of the extreme sensitivity over genetically modified foods in some parts of the world that the discovery of a patch of pesticide-resistant wheat in Oregon was enough to convince Japan and South Korea this week to halt some imports of the crop from the United States,” the Post said. “The move might allay the fears of some East Asian consumers, at the expense of U.S. farmers and to the detriment of the warmer trading relations the two Asian governments seek … Full Article »
Monsanto noted it remains committed to working with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the U.S. wheat industry to get to the bottom of the reported detection of Roundup Ready wheat earlier this week in a single field in Oregon.
The company is in the process of conducting its own investigation into the matter and is prepared to take actions once the investigation results are known to ensure that its farmer customers and the broader wheat industry remains strong.
In order to provide information on this reported detection, its own investigation, its wheat technology and wheat business, the company … Full Article »
On Wednesday, the U.S. Department of Agriculture announced that it was investigating a detection of genetically modified, glyphosate-resistant wheat in Oregon. Monsanto issued a statement on the report, saying that the company will work with the USDA to get to the bottom of the reported detection, and that there are no food, feed or environmental safety concerns associated with the presence of the Roundup Ready gene if it is found to be present in wheat.

Virginia agencies are getting rid of single-use plastics. Not everyone is pleased.
Business groups hope Youngkin will roll back executive order
Plastic waste. (Sarah Vogelsong/ Virginia Mercury)
The road to getting rid of single-use plastics at the Virginia Department of Corrections is littered with security protocols — specifically, ensuring that nonplastic bottles and cutlery can’t be used as weapons.
“There’s a lot of things we can’t change strictly to aluminum,” said Russell Vanness, the department’s sustainability administrator. “You can’t possibly make a weapon out of” a standard single-use plastic water bottle, he said. But other, more rigid drink containers “can be made into a blade of some kind.”
As Virginia agencies begin complying with Gov. Ralph Northam’s March directive to wean off of single-use plastics, DOC isn’t alone in encountering some unexpected challenges. The Frontier Culture Museum in Staunton is hunting for a replacement for the plastic hinged containers it uses to sell more than half a dozen flavors of fudge. Everyone is uncertain what to use in place of plastic garbage can liners.
Still, said Sharon Baxter, a division director with the Department of Environmental Quality, which is overseeing the push to phase out the state government’s use of disposable plastic, “I’ve been really impressed with how sincere an effort people have put forth on this.”
Northam’s March order, known as Executive Order 77, directed all state agencies including public colleges and universities to start phasing out single-use plastics with an ultimate goal of eliminating their use by the end of 2025. Disposable plastics used for medical purposes were exempt, and greater latitude was given to those used for public health or safety reasons.
As justification, the governor pointed to not only an increase in the state’s solid waste, but also the threats plastic pollution poses to the Chesapeake Bay.
“Plastics are the most pervasive type of marine debris in our ocean and along our coasts,” Northam wrote.
Agencies have complied with the executive order, said Baxter. Since it went into effect, DEQ has received 114 of an expected 116 plastic pollution reduction plans from agencies. A more wide-ranging report on how Virginia can reduce and divert solid waste from landfills that the Secretary of Natural Resources was supposed to submit to the governor and the General Assembly by Oct. 1 has not been completed. Northam spokesperson Alena Yarmosky said that Secretary Ann Jennings, who took over for departing secretary Matt Strickler in mid-September shortly before the report was due, was “working diligently” to complete it and expects it to be done “no later than mid-December.”
Changes are already underway. The Frontier Culture Museum has started selling metal water bottles and phased out plastic ones. Virginia’s Alcoholic Beverage Control Authority said in its plan that it’s working to replace roughly 2 million plastic bags used a month with reusable bags by December 2022.
“We think we have 99 percent of state employees covered by the plans that were submitted,” said Baxter. That can have a big impact: “The state’s buying power is pretty immense,” she said.
Manufacturers push against order
While the March order caught some agencies off guard, it was in line with a string of plastic waste reduction measures Virginia Democrats rolled out during their two years of control in Richmond, a tenure set to end this January with the arrival of Republican Gov.-elect Glenn Youngkin and a Republican controlled House of Delegates.
Besides the single-use plastic phaseout at state agencies, Democrats allowed local governments to impose a five-cent tax on certain plastic bags — an option several began exercising this year — narrowly approved banning polystyrene food containers by 2025 and banned balloon releases. More controversially, they also smoothed the path for chemical recycling facilities that repurpose existing plastics to locate in Virginia.
The ban on state agencies’ use of disposable plastics has sparked an industry backlash.
In late 2019, in response to the prospect of a polystyrene ban, a collection of business groups formed the Coalition for Consumer Choices, which includes the Virginia Manufacturers Association and chemical company trade group the American Chemistry Council. This July, the coalition sent a letter to Northam’s administration arguing that EO77 “makes Virginia far less sustainable and is perhaps the most unrealistic and overreaching regulation of its kind in the United States today.”
The coalition says that the executive order will lead to increased landfilling because plastic alternatives generally weigh far more than plastics and aren’t recyclable, as well as increased greenhouse gas emissions.
“There is ample evidence that use of common alternatives to plastic packaging items leads to increased GHG emissions, not less,” the businesses wrote, citing a 2020 study by Imperial College London researchers as well as several industry studies.
Brett Vassey, president and CEO of the Virginia Manufacturers Association said that rather than banning single-use plastics, the coalition would like to see a greater emphasis on development of a “circular economy” that focuses more on reusing and repurposing materials rather than discarding them.
Vassey said the coalition has reached out to the incoming Youngkin administration to put rollback of the executive order “on their watchlist” and is proposing a range of measures such as improving funding to beef up what he calls “anemic” recycling infrastructure on the local level and making recycling centers tax exempt.
“We’re not tone deaf to the need to have solutions to plastic waste,” he said. “So what we are also trying to do with the Youngkin administration is provide alternatives.”
A spokesperson for Youngkin did not respond to the question of whether the administration had any plans to rescind or amend the order.
An ‘additional push’ and a ‘challenge’
Despite concerns, at least some state agencies subject to the single-use plastic ban were already moving in the direction of phasing out plastics and otherwise attempting to reduce waste.
The University of Virginia had in place a sustainability plan to reduce its total waste footprint 70 percent by 2030 and “had already been pushing towards zero-waste events,” said Sustainability Director Andrea Trimble.
“This was an additional push,” she said. With EO77, she said, “we’re able to mobilize and implement [those waste goals] faster than we would have otherwise.”
Similarly, Nancy Heltman, visitor services director for Virginia State Parks, said the parks began selling boxed water and encouraging visitors to use refillable bottles in lieu of plastic ones two years ago. And Vanness said the Virginia Department of Corrections had been focused on sustainability “for quite some time,” running an extensive composting program and tracking waste.
The order has “asked us to enhance our program,” he said. “It’s actually sped us up a little bit from where we were and the goals that we’ve had.”
Still, members of several of the agencies the Mercury interviewed said it would be a challenge to meet the 2025 phaseout deadline.
“The overarching goal of this, I think, is wonderful,” said Cliff Edwards, director of facilities for the Frontier Culture Museum. “I think it’s a good idea for all of us, but I think it’s certainly going to take the allotted amount of time to get there.”
Among the biggest barriers cited by agencies were availability of alternatives and costs. The Frontier Culture Museum said that to fully implement a recycling program it would have to add staff. In some areas, Virginia State Parks has no nearby place to bring recyclables.
“We have communities where there isn’t any recycling,” said Heltman. “Many localities just can’t find an affordable way to continue to fund recycling programs.”
Also vexing for the parks: soda replacements.
“We still rely on drink machines in our parks and some vendors are not able, at this time, to switch out bottle dispensing machines for cans,” said Heltman. “Some drinks, like sports drinks, are typically available only in plastic bottles but this seems to be changing.”
That’s a problem shared by the Department of Corrections, which stocks commissaries in correctional facilities where prisoners can buy items like chips and candy.
“Acceptable alternatives were hard to find in the commissary,” said Vanness. But, he added, “industry will provide alternatives. It’ll catch up with us and it will be easier as years go by.”

Sheriff's Office: Man stole $25K in property
VERONA — A Waynesboro man suspected in a string of thefts and break-ins dating back to April 2014 is under arrest following a traffic stop in New Hampshire, the Augusta County Sheriff's Office reported Tuesday.
At least $25,000 in property was stolen during the alleged crime spree, according to reports.
Travis Brown, 23, faces three charges of grand larceny, two charges of breaking and entering, and single counts obtaining money by false pretenses and possession of a controlled substance. Brown also was slapped with three misdemeanor charges of petty larceny, an arrest report stated.
Deputy Felicia Glick, a spokesperson for the Augusta County Sheriff's Office, said Brown is suspected of breaking into numerous homes and cars, mostly in the Crimora area. Glick said the thefts netted more than $12,000 in personal property and a $13,000 vehicle.
New Hampshire authorities in Nashua arrested Brown last week after he was pulled over during a routine traffic stop. He was then extradited to Virginia.
Glick said Brown was wanted by Augusta County authorities after a confidential informant working for the sheriff's office informed investigators that Brown had allegedly traded a stolen gun and reportedly was in possession of additional stolen property.
"Through the informant, we were able to piece the case together," Glick said.
Brown is being held at Middle River Regional Jail in Verona.

Get Leashed stokes the cat people vs. dog people fire
By Jon Nelson
Disagree? Check out 8 reasons dog people are better than cat people.
1. Cat people can go away for a weekend at the drop of a hat
Leave out some extra food and when you return your cat will be like: “You were gone?” No. Problem.
2. Cat people earn respect
Want your cat to want to hang out around you? Just be cool, man. Seek attention and you won’t get it. Learn to play hard-to-get and stop being, well, a pussy.
3. Cat people don’t have to go outside if they don’t want to
Forecast calls for freezing rain? You don’t have to leave your house. You don’t even have to get out of your pajamas. Nobody wants to go out in that and nobody has to, unless you have a dog.
4. Cat people only have to occasionally deal with poo
And they can use a scoop. It’s not even a daily thing if you’ve been smart about where the kitty litter is. Plus, you can wait for it to be cold and hard, not fresh and warm. Ew.
5. Cat people get bigger humorous moments
Cats are to animal comedy what Dave Chapelle is to people comedy. They don’t do anything for long periods of time so that when they do, it’s freaking hilarious.
6. Cat people can eat without being stared at
Cats don’t really want your food and if sleeping is an option during dinnertime, they’ll likely just do that.
7. Cat people can leave the house without feeling guilty
No sad faces, no whining or barking, just open the door and walk out.
8. Cat people are better in bed
Somehow, getting a cat to let you pet it is much like convincing someone you’re worth sleeping with. Touch and caress a cat in the right places and they’ll let you keep doing it. Be sloppy and they’re gone. Know what we mean?

Dozens of shoppers descended upon a department centre after announcing a flash sale until Ajman Police found them in violation of Covid-19 protocols and ordered the store to shut down.
Very little is known about the store’s name and its whereabouts, but one can only imagine their sale promotions were so heavily discounted to the extent that people lined in large cues waiting to make a purchase.
It wasn’t until Ajman Police came to know about it and shared a video of the store with scores of shoppers neglecting social distancing and waiting in lines ahead of the counter. It’s worth mentioning all the people in the video were equipped with a face mask.
Following the shopping promotion, the store has been ordered to shut down, in addition to an AED 5,000 fine for crowdedness.
“The Emergency Crisis, Disasters and Disasters team calls on the owners of shops in the Emirate to comply with all preventive measures, adhere to resolutions issued to combat the pandemic, reduce the spread of the epidemic and reduce the cases of infections, affirming the lack of tolerance in taking firm and strict actions on For the safety of community members, all the facilities that violate this matter.”Ajman Police
Police in the UAE have to gone to great extents to warn the public not to go against social distancing rules and adhere to Covid-19 protocols. Last month saw Dubai Police bust yacht and desert parties after finding hundreds of residents flouting Covid-19 rules. Fines vary from AED 5,000-50,000 for partygoers and organizers.

Tenth collection from the Irish-born Trevor, a dozen wise and beautifully crafted pieces from a master.
Most of the stories have to do with adultery, though the surprise is how many of the characters manage to treat one another with grace and kindness. In the title piece, Trevor (The Story of Lucy Gault, 2003, etc.) takes us through a single day in which two middle-aged lovers in London, who have built a comfortable second life together that’s organized around daily meeting places, end their affair with the honor and dignity they believe their love deserves. A lonely librarian (“Graillis’ Legacy”) tries to reconcile his dual love for his wife and for his former lover, after both have died, by refusing to accept an inheritance from one of them. In “Rose Wept,” a gossipy teenaged girl recognizes the adult cost that her tutor has paid for his wife’s infidelity. And in the stunning “Solitude,” one of the best tales here, a woman in late middle age makes a confession to a stranger: she’s attempting to come to terms with the life-long sacrifice her parents made for her own protection, after her mother’s infidelity resulted in a terrible accident that changed all of their lives. Her confessor reassures her: “Theirs [her parents’] was the shame, yet their spirit is gentle in our conversation: guilt is not always terrible, nor shame unworthy.” This capacity for forgiveness, even under desperate circumstances, is a theme tying many of the pieces together, while others deal with betrayals of a different nature: in “Sitting With the Dead,” a bitter widow confesses to a loveless marriage; and in “Sacred Statues,” a woman’s faith in her artist-husband’s work nearly leads her to sacrifice their child.
There’s nothing mechanical about the simple humility and compassion that make the best of Trevor’s stories so moving.

This entry was chosen as a winner of the Performance Marketing World UK Awards 2023. View all the winners, coverage, photos and videos from the night in our special feature section here..
When a devastating earthquake hit large parts of Turkey and Syria in February 2023, EssenceMediacomX identified a unique opportunity to serve a greater purpose beyond immediate aid.
Observing the fleeting nature of financial donations that accompanies news cycles and the exacerbated impact on women during global disasters, they partnered with UN Women to amplify the call for assistance and generate awareness.Their ambition was to utilise the often overlooked media segment of hard news inventory and harness it to have a meaningful impact on the cause.
EssenceMediacomX decided it would set about acquiring 'non-brand safe' media space with the aim of converting the heightened attention it attracts into beneficial action. This approach acted on the principle that those captivated by hard news, especially reports on natural disasters, are not only engrossed by it but also potent contributors to humanitarian efforts. To bring this initiative to life, the team joined forces with prominent names in the publishing industry, namely The Guardian and The Telegraph, to focus on hard news pieces. This dual-faceted approach emphasised the significance of such inventory to advertisers, all while endorsing crucial journalistic content.
The results were astounding: a 3,600% surge in UK donations for UN Women's relief efforts in just two weeks. This strategy not only channelled critical aid to affected regions, but also underscored the untapped potential of hard news in media procurement. The EssenceMediacomX and UN Women partnership epitomises how innovative, purpose-driven strategies can promote societal good while shaping industry norms.
"The speed at which this campaign was envisaged and actioned should be highly commended. Not only was it much needed but they developed a unique concept that not only served the campaign but also publishers, much reliant on ad revenue who are hit due to brand safety concerns around war.”

Seven students, four security officials, two watchmen and a journalist were among those injured. Mehsud said the terrorists had links inside Afghanistan.
Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) has said that security forces reached the site and successfully completed the operation killing all the suspected militants. A security guard was shot and gravely wounded in the attack.
A gunbattle continued between forces and the attackers for over an hour and the Pakistan Army successfully killed all the terrorists.
Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan, the Pakistani Taliban, has already claimed responsibility for the attack.
The injured, including a station house officer (SHO), constable, army soldiers and students, have been shifted to Khyber Teaching Hospital and CMH for treatment.
"Our mujahids have attacked the building because it was used as office for ISI". "I rushed to the door and saw a fountain of blood pumping out of the shoulder of my roommate who was standing outside the room", he said.
The army and local police who were summoned to the scene killed all the attackers, who arrived at the Agricultural Training Institute on Friday by rickshaw, the military's press wing said.
Wali and another student rushed to his aid, hiding from the gunmen for nearly an hour before they were rescued by security forces.
"We were sleeping when we heard gunshots".
Around eight to 10 people were reportedly evacuated by the security officials.
Violence erupted over the weekend after police and paramilitary forces launched a bungled attempt to clear a sit-in, igniting fresh demonstrations in cities across the country, including in Lahore and Karachi.
The protests were finally ended just days ago under a military-brokered deal.
In 2014, Pakistani Taliban gunmen murdered more than 140 children in Peshawar, according to the BBC, making it one of the deadliest attack in the country's history.

Title: Japan Criticizes China’s Ban on Seafood Exports Following Fukushima Water Release
Word Count: 351
In a recent development, Japan has lambasted China’s decision to impose a ban on Japanese seafood imports post the release of treated water from the Fukushima nuclear plant. Labeling the move as “totally unacceptable,” the Japanese government is determined to address its concerns through both diplomatic and legal means.
To begin with, Japan intends to raise its objections within the relevant committees of the World Trade Organization (WTO) and has urged China to promptly lift the ban. In the event that China fails to reverse the decision, Japan is contemplating filing a formal complaint with the WTO, garnering support from the United States.
Additionally, Japan aims to clarify the safety measures employed in the treatment of the released water during upcoming diplomatic gatherings, such as the ASEAN Summit and G20 Summit. Notably, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida and China’s Premier Li Qiang are expected to attend these summits. However, Chinese President Xi Jinping will be notably absent.
Seeking resolution, Japan has requested discussions with China regarding the import ban, utilizing the provisions outlined in the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) trade agreement. The RCEP trade pact serves as the foundation for fruitful dialogues to tackle the prevailing issue.
China, being the largest market for Japanese seafood exports, has witnessed a substantial impact due to the ban. In 2022 alone, Japan’s exports to China’s seafood market were valued at approximately $600 million. As a result of the ban, Japan saw a staggering 23% year-on-year decline in aquatic product exports to China in July.
In order to bolster the domestic fisheries industry during this challenging period, Japan has committed to allocating over 100 billion yen. These funds will be dedicated to supporting local fishermen and ensuring their sustainability in the face of dwindling exports.
Moreover, as a consequence of the import ban, stricter inspections have been initiated on goods bound for China, leading to shipment delays. The tightened scrutiny is impacting Japanese businesses reliant on Chinese markets, further adding to the economic strain.
As tensions mount in the wake of the seafood ban, all eyes are on the upcoming diplomatic forums and WTO proceedings, where Japan will passionately defend its position while seeking resolution and a path forward that reconciles the interests of both nations.
