In a small bowl, combine the mushrooms and 1/2 cup warm water. Let soak until soft, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain through a strainer set over a small bowl, pressing firmly on the mushrooms to extract the liquid.
Transfer the mushrooms to a food processor, reserving the soaking liquid. Pulse the mushrooms, occasionally scraping down the sides of the bowl, until finely chopped. Transfer to a medium bowl. Repeat with the carrot and edamame. Add the spinach and toss the vegetables to combine.
In a small bowl, whisk the soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, 1/4 tsp. pepper, 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 cup of the mushroom soaking liquid. In another small bowl, stir the cornstarch with 2 tbsp. of the mushroom soaking liquid.
In a wok or large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium. Add the ginger and garlic and stir-fry until fragrant, 15 to 30 seconds. Add the vegetables and the soy sauce mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the cornstarch mixture; stir until thickened slightly, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a bowl; stir in the scallions. Let cool completely.
Pleat the dumpling's sealed edge by folding every 1/4 inch, forming 4 to 5 pleats; press firmly to seal. Transfer the dumpling to the prepared baking sheet; cover with a kitchen towel. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling, spacing the dumplings 1/2 inch apart on the baking sheet. 3. In a large nonstick skillet with a lid, heat 2 tbsp. oil over medium-high. Working in batches, add the dumplings, one at a time and seam-side up, to the skillet. Fry until golden, 1 to 2 minutes.

Island Doggie will be attending this year's Pet Walk to help raise funds for the Hawaiian Humane Society and show off our stylish swag too. We hope you will either help contribute to our fundraising page or simply join us on Sunday, October 11 at Ala Moana Beach Park at 8:00am. Make sure to have a good night's rest and a healthy breakfast! Don't forget to dress your pet in their favorite Island Doggie harness. Keep your pet on a lead and don't forget to scoop the poop with our Poopie Bag Dispenser. Mahalo for your kokua.
Alright, I'll admit it, we were not at the Pet Walk exactly at 8am, but 8:18am. My husband dropped us off at Magic Island while he went to go hunt for parking. With Coral in her stroller, and Bugz and Joey on their leash beside us, we headed over to the Subaru Forester to donate some Island Doggie swag - three bow ties and two toys. Then, we checked in at the registration booth and collected our "Mahalo" ticket for a free Pets in Paradise calendar for raising over $100. Much mahalo to Wendy of San Diego, California for helping us out! After that, we walked over to the Mahalo Booth where we traded our ticket for the calendar. We leisurely walked around the "short course," which is just around Magic Island Beach Park, not the entire Ala Moana Park. We stopped to say, "Hello," to another couple with their 9-month old baby and dog. Right before we neared the finish line, my husband finally called to say he was going to meet us there. He ended up parking all the way at the opposite end of Ala Moana Beach.
It's really encouraging to have all the volunteers at every so many yards cheering you and your dogs on towards the finish line. Once you get there, a whole bunch of people are cheering for you - my husband included, and you walk under a huge archway of yellow, green and blue balloons. It's not like it's a marathon, but damn, it was humid today. Good thing it was slightly cloudy and they had bowls with ice water at some booths for the dogs and cups of water for us humans.
My husband took Coral and waited under a big tree while the boys and I wandered through the crowd. We stopped to drink some water, took a photo at the Subaru booth and completed a survey for some free stuff; and went to visit our friend, Eileen, who was giving doggie massages. She's part of a group known as Animal Communicators Hawaii who do lost animal searches, canine healing touch, reiki, and pet blessings.Very interesting and effective work for those who are willing to be patient and listen with an open-mind.
More importantly, we ran into a couple previous customers and handed them FREE SHIPPING coupons since they're dogs were sporting Island Doggie goods. It's always great to see our merch on your doggies and we want to thank you all for your support.
Please come visit us at our next event at the Kaneohe Pet Fair at King Intermediate on Sunday, November 8th from 8am-2pm. Malama pono.

Experienced some traffic slowdowns on Interstate 40 lately?
Our staff has been monitoring the situation this week and is meeting today to discuss ways to improve traffic flow through the area when work resumes.
In January, the lane closures will return in that area. Again, there will be one lane closed in each direction. The closures are expected to remain in place through mid 2013. We are advising motorists to plan ahead and consider using alternate routes through the Cache River area. Possible routes include U.S. Highways 70 and 79 south of Interstate 40, and U.S. Highways 67 and 64 north of the Interstate.
We are looking at ways to reduce delay times when the closures return in January. Discussions are underway now.

Our Trans Programme Assistant, Zane, sat down with Cassie, our Trans Advocacy Officer, to discuss with them about the brand new Trans Advocacy service.
Welcome to the team! Can you tell us a bit about yourself?
Hi Zane, thank you! I’m really happy to join you and Louie on the Trans Programme team. To introduce myself, I’m Cassie (They/ Them pronouns). People might recognize me from around the LGBT Foundation reception where I have worked on the helpline and reception for the past 18 months. I am also a volunteer counsellor here at the Foundation and volunteer for a Trans Youth Group, and I am passionate about empowering and supporting Trans People, so I’m really excited to be working alongside you both, as Trans Advocacy Officer.
Advocacy is a form of practical support. Its purpose is to help people access services to which they are entitled and to ensure that their rights are protected. For trans people, this could be in relation to transition related healthcare, welfare and benefits, or feeling safe and comfortable in education or the workplace, but there are many other examples! The advocate can help to rebalance the power relationship between the person who wants advocacy support and the organization that they want support with speaking to, for example a trans person who wants support with speaking to their GP. They do this in three main ways. First, they provide the person seeking support with the information they need to understand their rights and to make informed decisions. Second they help this person to explore their options and to make informed decisions. Third, the advocate acts as a third party in the relationship between the person and the organization, where their role is to protect and safeguard the person’s rights.
What are your hopes for the Trans Advocacy programme?
Who is Trans Advocacy for?
The Trans Advocacy service is open to anyone who identifies with a gender which is different from the one which they were assigned at birth and is over 18 years of age. Advocacy is the right service for you if you need practical ongoing support to ensure that your right to access a service is met, and to help you feel empowered in your relationship to someone in an organization which is either providing you with a service (e.g. housing, benefits, healthcare) or otherwise plays a significant role in your life (e.g. employer). However, if you are mainly seeking emotional support, it would be more appropriate to either call our helpline on 0345 3303030 or access our Talking Therapies/ Counselling service, details of which can be found on the website. You can access both counselling and advocacy at the same time. Advocates are not able to provide legal advice. If you feel unsure whether the service is right for you, please ask!
How can people interested in the programme get in touch?
People who are interested in the programme can get in touch by emailing transadvocacy@lgbt.foundation .

Kate Linnea Welsh: Weekly Rec: The Spy with the Red Balloon + Q&A with Author Katherine Locke!
Weekly Rec: The Spy with the Red Balloon + Q&A with Author Katherine Locke!
The Spy with the Red Balloon, one of my favorite books of the year, is out today! Siblings Ilse and Wolf Klein have a big secret: they can do magic. And then the government finds out and blackmails them into service, Ilse by helping with the atom bomb project and Wolf by going behind enemy lines to sabotage the German nuclear program. Soon they're both in danger, and have to figure out how to help each other (and fight Nazis) while remaining true to themselves and their beliefs. This book combines so many things I like - it's a World War II spy story, a smart girl story, a sibling story. There's lots of science AND magic, complicated interpersonal dynamics, and big philosophical questions playing themselves out in people's everyday lives. And it features a realistic cross-section of characters of different races and religions and sexualities who are too often left out of historical fiction.
I love math and physics so my first thought is to ask about THE EQUATIONS, but I guess you did not ACTUALLY write magical equations. So instead: how did you decide on that form for your magic?
I decided on it pretty early when I was writing The Girl with the Red Balloon after doing quite a bit of research on time travel and realizing that magic that moved people through space could, by that very same logic, move them through time. If such an equation could be developed.
I got into the weeds a few times with it when I was working on Girl but it wasn’t until Spy when I had to actually think about how they would have developed and understood this magic. There’s magic in Spy that is very very close to how Ellie gets to East Berlin in Girl, and sometimes I like to think about all of the research work, what was lost, what was found (and by whom), that happens between 1945 at the end of Spy and 1988 in Girl.
This book's companion, The Girl with the Red Balloon, was written/published first but set later. What were some of the challenges involved in fitting this story within the framework you set up in the previous book? Was there anything you established in Girl that turned out to be particularly troublesome when writing Spy?
Hahahahahahaha. Ahahahahahahaha. *catches breath* AHAHAHAHAHA.
Yes. I had to ret-con a lot of my own work. I did not intend to write another book in this world, so I had to go back and look through all the magic that is in normal use by 1988 in Girl and decide where they were in 1945. I’d established in Girl that the magic was pretty new in 1942, so I had a time constraint--if it was very new in 1942 in the war zone where they were using it, then it couldn’t be so well established, widely known and fully realized in 1943 in the US where I set half of Spy. Additionally, I’d pitched a Manhattan Project book to my editor (who is a history nerd in the best of ways, so she was excited about that). I needed to think about the evolution of magic, what would be desired by the US military for the Project, and what would be needed in reality in the ‘field’, so to speak.
Additionally, the magic system had a lot of constraints. So if random people’s blood was magical and caused them or whatever their blood touched to levitate, how did they go undetected? What happened to those who menstruated? How did they draw blood and write without their pens levitating, or the materials levitating as they did so? How did they stop blood from clotting? From going rancid? How long did an equation last?
I often get frustrated with dual narratives because I end up much more interested in one half of the story than the other, but you did a great job here keeping both Ilse's and Wolf's stories interesting and giving them parallel pacing without it seeming contrived. What was your technique for planning that out? Did you make a big combined timeline?
This was also a lot of work! There were times that I felt Wolf’s timeline was naturally more compelling because he felt like he was in the most immediate danger, which tends to build immediate empathy and connection with readers. The book began as Ilse’s book, so I didn’t want to lose her and her voice. She was my entry into the story, and I truly love this character. I wanted to make sure she sang too.
I reverse outlined the book and put them on notecards, taking care to match up arcs. When Wolf gets into [REDACTED TROUBLE], a similar situation happens to Ilse, heightening their tensions and their storylines at the same time. Either they had to match completely, or they had to be the inverse and the reaction had to be devastating. So for example--this isn’t a spoiler because it’s in the cover copy--Ilse’s at a dance when her brother’s plane is shot down. The colonel sends someone to find her, and Ilse’s horrified that while she was having fun (or at least, thinking she could have fun), her brother went missing.
I worked that out physically with notecards first, and then rearranged my book (via Scrivener) to match that, before I exported to Word (my preferred medium to work).
There aren't many WWII novels with Jewish main characters that aren't centered on the Holocaust. Why was it important to you to do that here?
My grandfather was the son of Jewish immigrants (from what is now western Ukraine but was then Poland), and he fought in WWII. His unit helped liberate Dachau II, a sub-camp of Dachau. From what we’ve been able to track, some of our relatives died at Dachau. None of my relatives who stayed in Europe survived the Holocaust. Dozens of Jewish boys who escaped Germany before 1942 made it to the US, and enlisted to go home and fight the Nazis. Jewish-American soldiers fought in WWII, and they fought at even higher risk than Christian-American soldiers. If they were captured, they were often killed or sent to concentration camps like Berga.
I really wanted to explore that time period through a different lens, through the lens of American Jews who know what’s happening over there, are pacifists, struggle with the blindness of patriotism, and have a great deal to lose: they are Jewish, they are American, they are queer, and they do magic.
I also really really want to see more historical fantasy and historical novels where Jewish people are heroes without being victims in the same breath. The Klein siblings go through a lot in Spy, but they’re never victims.
This book is fantasy but obviously it's very grounded in real history. What was your research process like, and specifically what kinds of resources did you use to help you tell the stories of people who are so often overlooked in history and historical fiction, like people of color and queer characters?
I traveled to Oak Ridge, Tennessee and went on the tour of the nuclear facilities and town there, as well as visiting the museum. I read a lot of books and watched movies. I had a pretty good background on nuclear weapons as I worked in nuclear weapons abolition activism for a year after college, but I knew more about the work on the Gadget at Los Alamos than I did about Oak Ridge. I read a lot of books about spies during WWII, the Manhattan Project, the women on the Manhattan Project, the Nazi science programs, etc. I listed all the books I read, and included my author’s note and photos from my trip here on my website.
I also read Manhattan Project Voices, where there are interviews and oral histories with women who worked on the Project. I am immensely grateful for the historians who’ve taken the time to collect those stories.
On the whole, WWII must be one of the most well documented and well researched times in history, from every angle. I wanted to include Stella after reading about how Dr. J. Ernest Wilkins was excluded from the Manhattan Project in Tennessee because of Jim Crow laws. I knew both Klein siblings were queer (Ilse is bi, Wolf is demisexual/ace-spectrum), and I did research around that. (Contrary to what some may believe, queerness is not an invention of the last fifty years.) Queer people and Black people and disabled people and Jewish people and Christian people and depressed people and anxiety people and neurodiverse people and young people and old people all participated in the war effort. It is disingenuous to write books that do not reflect that.
It turns out, I am not out of L names.
You would be a great codebreaker. I would be very bad at it.
I would like to be Lily (from Spy) though. I think I would have been good at keeping boys in line and punching Nazis.
You write across a lot of different genres/audiences - is it hard switching back and forth? Are there themes you find yourself returning to across different projects?
I definitely write a lot of Jewish characters! I also write a lot of Jewish characters/characters in general struggling with trying to do good in seemingly impossible situations. I love writing siblings, so I frequently come back to that. I am really interested in the ways that times of high conflict make someone realize that they’ve always had the tools to survive. They didn’t gain them through the struggle, they’ve always had them. If that makes sense. So conflict as a way of illuminating our resilience as people and individuals.
As for switching, I don’t find it difficult. I try not to write two YA books at the same time, but I can write a YA contemporary and a MG fantasy at the same time. They’re different books for me, and they keep me interested and thinking. I like the puzzle aspect of stories and I have a short attention span. Jumping around and trying to challenge myself with every new manuscript keeps me happy.
In addition to writing you have a full time dayjob and freelance. Any favorite tips for finding the time/energy for writing or other creative work while still paying the bills?
Set aside one day a week where you don’t do work (which...I admittedly did not do this week) because you need to refill that well. Daydreaming about stories, or going to plays or art museums or walking around a park or talking to friends is refilling the well and that is creative space, even if it doesn’t feel like it at the time.
Get up early before work, if you can, and write while your brain is the freshest. I edit at night because I can do that after work, but I can’t make new words after I work all day. So I do those in the morning. Figure out when and where you work best, and commit to it. I’m bad at writing for just 15 mins here and there, while I have friends who write whole novels that way. I need at least two hours straight through. And I work typically 20 minutes on, 5-10 minutes off, 20 minutes on again.
And sleep. Seriously. Your brain needs time to rest and repair.
Which of your cats would be the best spy?
Okay. I’ve been thinking about this the entire interview while I worked on the other questions. I think the important thing to remember here is that there are many types of spies and they all work in different ways. So I think all of my cats would be great spies, but for different things.
But the dream team would be Cora and Pilot. Cora is very loud and you would think she’d be a bad spy, but she’s really good at climbing on top of you and distracting you, while yelling at you, so you may not see Pilot going to work in the background. He’s very quiet, and very light and small, and very sneaky. They’re a good team.

There are resurrection themes in every society that has ever been studied, and it is because not just only do we fantasize about the possibility of resurrection and recovery, but it actually happens. And it happens a lot.
Even putting aside the Judeo-Christian morality upon which the Constitution and our nations culture are based, the notion of forced euthanasia would contradict the long-held body of medical ethics to which all American doctors must adhere.
Long regarded as central to the contemporary understanding of medical ethics are four principles that must be satisfied in order to fulfill the requirements of moral decision-making. These principles are autonomy, justice, beneficence, and non-maleficence.
Nosology (from the Greek 'nosos,' meaning 'disease,' and 'logos,' referring to 'study') is not a sport for the timid, and certainly not for those so scrupulous about rules and order that they demand consistency in all things.
I think when you think of death as being part of the life cycle and recognize that death is an inevitability for our species because the world has to be renewed with each death, then the hope becomes when it is renewed it will be renewed by people on whom I have had some influence for good.
The Scientific Revolution, that remarkable transformation of European thought that occurred between approximately 1550 and 1700, brought with it an ascendancy of the experimental method and the refusal to believe any explanation of natural phenomena that could not be proven to the satisfaction of the empirical observer.
I was, in the 1960s, in a marriage. To use the word 'bad' would be perhaps the understatement of the year. It was dreadful.
The growing professional disciplines of medical ethics and bioethics have had a profound impact on researchers, bedside doctors, associations of physicians, and government.
Though moral axioms to guide the conduct of the practitioner have existed since the beginnings of the profession of healing, Western doctors are most likely to view the Hippocratic Oath of approximately two-and-a-half millennia ago as the first codified set of statements to which they can look for guidance.
To become comfortable with uncertainty is one of the primary goals in the training of a physician.
There is, to be sure, sometimes only a small difference between being alert to possible danger and allowing oneself to become terrified to the point of paralysis by seeming or imagined portents.
By the time of my ninth birthday, I had become a bit of a socialist, as I am said by conservative colleagues to be to this day. I went on within the next few years to volunteer as an envelope stuffer for the American Labor Party, and my political thinking has not shifted measurably since that time.
You know, ever since man had any notion that some of his other people, his colleagues, could be different, could be strange, could be severely depressed or what we now recognize as schizophrenia, he was certain that this kind of illness had to come from evil spirits getting into the body.
'Death with dignity' is our society's expression of the universal yearning to achieve a graceful triumph over the stark and often repugnant finality of life's last sputterings. But the fact is, death is not a confrontation. It is simply an event in the sequence of nature's ongoing rhythms.
Medical judgment can be taught - laboriously, in long periods of training - but it cannot be neatly handed over as the occasion demands it. It is the irreplaceable and untransferable contribution that the healer makes to the suffering individual who would be healed.
Only the emerging specialty of psychoanalysis seemed to understand that mental maladies are not fully analogous to physical disease. They resist classification, and might better be known by their symptoms and the individualized sufferings of patients than by assigned names.
Not death but disease is the real enemy; disease, the malign force that requires confrontation. Death is the surcease that comes when the exhausting battle has been lost.
Once the notion of depression had begun to dominate the diagnostic armamentarium, it became but a matter of time before patients with relatively mild disorders of mood or anxiety would be entered into it.
Too many of the elderly do not have the family or the communal attachments necessary to feel valued; too many are widowed or otherwise alone; too many live in surroundings where they are essentially without the companionship necessary to stimulate a mind in danger of deteriorating.
Both individual fulfillment and the ecological balance of life on this planet are best served by dying when our inherent biology decrees that we do.
I never had a conscious fear of death, but I did have a conscious fear of sickness. By the time I completed medical school, that fear was gone.
Death belongs to the dying and those who love them.
The dignity we seek in dying must be found in the dignity with which we have lived our lives.
We have had a rewarding relationship, the belly and I.
Do you know what the world will be saved by? I'll tell you. It'll be saved by the human spirit. And by the human spirit, I don't mean anything divine, I don't mean anything supernatural - certainly not coming from this skeptic.
Where nothing in a person's earlier years lends itself to an old age devoted to continuing intellectual and physical pursuits, a late-life interest in Tolstoy or even crossword puzzles is unlikely to appear, no matter the urging by well-intentioned social workers or people like me who write books about it.
Whether wisely or not, one of the first priorities of the incoming Obama administration was to present a package of healthcare benefits, which, to no one's surprise, produced an uproar in Congress and an assortment of polls declaring that the majority of Americans were opposed to it.
Of all the named structures within the abdomen and the chest, those associated with reproduction retained the mysteries of their willful behavior long after others had been solved to the satisfaction of physicians and philosophers.
Only by a frank discussion of the very details of dying can we best deal with those aspects that frighten us the most. It is by knowing the truth... that we rid ourselves of that fear of the terra incognita of death.
I have been following the attempt to initiate or revamp federal involvement in the health of Americans since it was a major topic for my high school debating team in 1947.
Though President George W. Bush made some small noises about his intention to present some form of improved health coverage, nothing grew out of them.
Every hope of successive generations of scholars that order might be constructed from the chaotic mess of medical nomenclature has been frustrated. Even diseases recognized in the same historical period have been given names based on characteristics that have no relation to one another, and thus no common criteria.
The writings and the recommendations of the earliest medical scientists and the new breed of clinicians between the mid-fifteenth and early seventeenth centuries were based on the supposition that sufficient study and experimentation would elucidate not only the origins of disease, but its treatment as well.
I've seen so many patients, particularly elderly patients, over the years who become debilitated and changed by the process by which I cure them or another doctor cures them. And has it really been worth it?
Our deaths become a part of our lives in the sense that with our deaths we give something to those who are left behind, as we have given our lives to them.
It's unnatural to believe death usually has a beauty and a concordance and is usually a coming together of your life's work. It leads to frustration for the patient. And it leaves grieving families convinced they did something wrong.
At times, morality can be dismissed as a matter of personal conscience, no matter how widespread its acceptance. Ethics, on the other hand, arises from societal or group commitments to principia of behavior.
I have not seen much dignity in the process by which we die. The quest to achieve true dignity fails when our bodies fail.
If there's one operation for a disease, you know it works. If there are 15 operations, you know that none of them work.
Being someone who had had a very difficult childhood, a very difficult adolescence - it had to do with not quite poverty, but close. It had to do with being brought up in a family where no one spoke English, no one could read or write English. It had to do with death and disease and lots of other things. I was a little prone to depression.
Cancer cells are fixed at an age where they are still too young to have learned the rules of the society in which they live. As with so many immature individuals of all living kinds, everything they do is excessive and uncoordinated with the needs or constraints of their neighbors... they are reproductive but not productive.
The belief in the probability of death with dignity is our, and society’s, attempt to deal with the reality of what is all too frequently a series of destructive events that involve by their very nature the disintegration of the dying person’s humanity. I have not often seen much dignity in the process by which we die.
The greatest dignity to be found in death is the dignity of the life that preceded it. This is a form of hope that we can all achieve, and it is the most abiding of all. Hope resides in the meaning of what our lives have been.
Death is the surcease that comes when the exhausting battle has been lost.
I have not often seen much dignity in the process by which we die.
Nosology (from the Greek nosos, meaning disease, and logos, referring to study) is not a sport for the timid, and certainly not for those so scrupulous about rules and order that they demand consistency in all things.
The dignity to be sought in death is the appreciation by others of what one has been in life,... that proceeds from a life well lived and from the acceptance of one's own death as a necessary process of nature.... It is also the recognition that the real event taking place at the end of our life is our death, not the attempts to prevent it.
The dignity we seek in dying is not to be found in our final weeks, days or moments but in the way we live and how we are seen by those people whose lives we affect.
The more personal you are willing to be and the more intimate you are willing to be about the details of your own life, the more universal you are. Everybody needs to be understood. And out of that comes every form of love.
Empires fall, ids explode, great symphonies are written, and behind all of it is a single instinct that demands satisfaction.
If we cannot heal in one way, we must learn to heal in another.
For aging is an art. The years between its first intimations and the time of the ultimate letting go of all earthly things can-if the readiness and resolve are there-be the real harvest of our lives.
A realistic expectation also demands our acceptance that one's allotted time on earth must be limited to an allowance consistent with the continuity of our species... We die so that the world may continue to live. We have been given the miracle of life because trillions and trillions of living things have prepared the way for us and then have died-in a sense, for us. We die, in turn, so that others may live. The tragedy of a single individual becomes, in the balance of natural things, the triumph of ongoing life.
The good thing that may yet happen during dying is not the possibility of survival when we're beyond that point. The good thing that may yet happen is that our lives will have great meaning for those we leave behind.
The final disease that nature inflicts on us will determine the atmosphere in which we take our leave of life, but our own choices should be allowed, insofar as possible, to be the decisive factor in the manner of our going.

text: China’s economy has impressed the world for the last few years. Some have thought that the elevated GDP and asset growth in housing and stocks were unsustainable. The Chinese government may have thought the same. They’re backing off their GDP targets. Housing may have peaked. Maybe the corrections came in time. The current worry is that the Chinese stock market has been falling since June 12th, and is now down 28%. Various actions by the government have not stopped the drop. A major economy in such a decline rarely limits its impacts internally. With Greece’s troubles causing EU troubles, and China having its troubles, the US may be the favored economy – despite its troubles. An interesting race.

This thickened tomato and garlic sauce takes on a roasted, almost smoky flavor from the high heat of the pizza oven. To make the sauce on a cooktop you can simply reduce it in a pan, just note that you won't achieve the same roasted flavor.
Combine the canned tomatoes with their juices in a blender along with the salt. Blend until the tomatoes are broken down but not completely smooth. The preferred texture is similar to that of apple sauce, but not quite so thick.
Combine the olive oil and garlic in a cast-iron vessel large enough to hold the initial volume of sauce. I use a small Dutch oven without the lid. Place the vessel in the pizza oven and cook, uncovered, until the garlic is browned, about 12 minutes. Carefully pour in the tomato sauce and return to the oven. Roast an additional 15 to 20 minutes, stirring once or twice.
The garlic will be completely black in the end, and the sauce will ideally have a browned skin on top. Stir the skin into the sauce. When using on pizzas, allow the olive oil to separate a bit from the tomato sauce. Avoid the olive oil and garlic cloves when spooning or ladling the sauce from the vessel.

The Welgevonden Game Reserve is a private reserve in the Waterberg District in Limpopo, covering 37,000 hectares of diverse landscapes and rich ecosystems, ranging from rolling hills and red sandstone cliffs to winding rivers and open plains and savannahs, including the UNESCO-listed Waterberg Biosphere Reserve.
This diverse and beautiful environment thrives with some of South Africa’s most iconic wildlife. The reserve’s name, rather fittingly, translates as ‘well found’, and this is a prime spot for seeing the Big Five, including one of the largest populations of white rhinos in Africa, and much more, from giraffes and zebras to cheetahs and hyenas - and with over 300 species of birds here as well, it’s a haven for birdwatchers too. Welgevonden is also a malaria-free reserve, making it ideal for family safari holidays, and it has something for everyone, young and old.
Human habitation in the area goes back potentially thousands of years, as evidenced by San rock paintings discovered here, but these days, humans take second place to the wildlife. As it’s a private reserve, the number of vehicles are limited in the park, so you are guaranteed bespoke and memorable safari experiences and the chance to get up close and personal with animals that are largely unfazed by human presence, having never been hunted.

This time of year the Swedes walk around in a pretty much constant state of sadness. I get even less eye contact when walking on the street than normal. The weather talks go from disappointment about the summer weather to anxiety about the coming winter. It's understandable. Winters are long and dark and cold here. If the weather affects your mood, September in Sweden is the long, steep water slide leading into the sea of freezing depression.
I, on the other hand, walk around with a smile of anticipation plastered on my face. The end of August doesn't signify the last chances to wear summer clothes or go for a swim. For me it means football is back! I love the Fall. The crispness in the air and the leaves turning mean that I will be passionately screaming at my TV on Sunday evenings. I'll be battling sleep as I try to catch the end of those west coast games. It's a great time for me.
Favorite Uncle Came to Stockholm!!!
I got a call from my mother that her youngest brother - my favorite uncle - would be taking his wife to France for her 40th birthday. I thought that was a cool, nice thing to do. The thought crossed my mind to ask why he doesn't come to Sweden, but I didn't want to be selfish. Then out of nowhere Mom said that she suggested he come to Stockholm to visit. She told me to call and tell him how much it would cost. WHAT?! Moonk in Stockholm? No way!
I called immediately. Moonk is pretty laid back. He said to look into it and let him know the details. He'd try to make it. He didn't sound excited at all! I didn't want to get my hopes up. It was kind of last minute. A trip in the middle of another trip? Unlikely. I looked up the prices and called Moonk. He said call his wife Tonya. I did and she was excited. This might really happen!

Described in various quarters as arguably the UK’s finest figurative water-colourist, celebrated contemporary figurative artist, Gordon King was born in Fife at the outbreak of World War II in 1939, and spent a happy, early childhood living on the west coast of Scotland until relocating south of the border and to Reading in Berkshire some time later. It was clear to see from the outset of his youth that King brandished a talent for art, and to support this theory the youngster claimed first prize in a collection of major art competitions from the time he was 7 years of age and onwards. Himself, keen to pursue an artistic career, King decided to specialise in the discipline of figurative illustration which is precisely where his fledgling talent lay to the casual and more seasoned observer during those formative years, and on that creative note King underwent training at London’s prestigious Carlton Studios, whilst also choosing to study life drawing and painting at Reading University around the same period.
National Service might well have put paid to King’s more artistic ideals, had it not been for the fact that his posting with the Royal Signals was in the capacity of Draughtsman, which naturally enabled him to gain an alternative insight into art, albeit form a more technical perspective. What’s more, he spent the large part of his compulsory National Service stationed in Paris; which exposed King to even greater inspirations which would in the fullness of time, shape his artistic future. On completing his time in the army, King went on to become a freelance illustrator when returning to Civvy Street in his early 20s, and found his talents in demand with a host of commercial suitors. Around the time King produced illustrative work for major magazines and advertising agencies, he also became a Member of the Society of Industrial Artists (MSIAD).
Pretty much all of the time King was applying illustrative solutions to the more corporate of design problems; he was compiling a useful back catalogue of personal artwork, with an ultimate view of one day being in the position of potential launching himself in the capacity of a fine artist rather than a more commercial one. In the early 1970s King got his big break, and was so well-received he could eventually turn his back on his freelance illustrative contracts and instead concentrate on his true labours of artistic love. King’s portfolio of primarily figurative and portraiture was the result of a plethora of commissions he’d been handed by impressed parties, and he began exhibiting his finished compositional articles around this period.
Predominantly oil-based works, success arrived quite rapidly for King once word got out and moreover on the back of his first one-man solo show going down a storm, and it wasn’t long before he was exhibiting at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibitions in London and later at the Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours, painting mostly figurative subjects. King soon became gained a reputation for his paintings of girls, pictured in natural environs which became his compositional stock from the start. The increasing – and enduring - popularity of King’s watercolours in the early 1980s, together with the success of his prints, limited editions and silk-screens, brought him the high profile that he still enjoys today, and in 1995 he published his first of two titles, ‘A Romance with Art’. In acknowledgement of his hitherto charitable work with Save the Children, its patron, HRH The Princess Royal, lent her words to the book’s forward, whilst the publication itself boasted an expansive range of his most popular and best-selling oils and watercolours.
Today, King can be found working out of his Buckinghamshire studio, which in itself provides a backdrop familiar to many of his fans in relation to his portraiture sittings. The critically-acclaimed artist has enjoyed exhibiting worldwide over the past 30 years and has also featured painting live on a number of television programmes including the BBC2 arts series ‘Close-Up’, Channel 5’s ‘Open House’ and Sky Sports with the P.G.A amongst others. King’s follow-up book – entitled ‘Drawn to Life’ – was published in 1999 and that very same year he was awarded the accolade of ‘Published Artist of the Year’ courtesy of the industry-respected Fine Art Trade Guild. In addition to that, King also had a painting accepted into the Singer & Friedlander Sunday Times Watercolour Competition which exhibited in London before touring the country.
As hinted at above, King has supported various charitable bodies throughout his professional art career, including being involved in key projects on behalf of the NSPCC and the BBC’s ‘Children in Need’ appeal (when he painted a portrait in front of a live audience). Furthermore, one of King’s commissioned paintings of the Golf at Brocket Hall was auctioned for the Bob Wilson Willow Foundation, while elsewhere recent projects have included three limited edition prints of Darcey Bussell in aid of The Alzheimer’s Society, a collection of paintings of Angels for the Caron Keating Foundation and a painting of Status Quo which was auctioned at Bonhams in aid of The Prince’s Trust. And then there’s King’s celebrity portraits, which number many and comprise the likes of Sir Norman Wisdom, Gloria Hunniford, Ann Widdecombe, Tim Henman, Tony Jacklin, Katherine Jenkins and the legendary actress Patricia Neal. Represented by one of the UK’s largest art publishers, Washington Green, King’s much sought after compositions remain highly prized by their owners and hugely collectable when new pieces are released, and are routinely seen as a sound investment in contemporary art circles.

Single-shot firearms are not for everyone. There are many situations where you do not want to find yourself limited to a single shot before having to reload. Everyday plinkers and target shooters – as well as hunters who are not after dangerous game – can afford to take their time and reload, sure. But in many other cases, what you want is the ability to respond and follow up. You want that weapon to cycle, and fast. So, yeah, single-shot firearms are situational and a judgement call.
The New England Firearms company (a brand managed by Harrington and Richardson) is all about the single-shot action, whether in the form of a shotgun or rifle. But the difference is that now, the company imports them and does not manufacture them.
The New England Firearms company has been around for nearly 150 years. Sort of. The original company was founded in 1871 by Frank Wesson (brother of Daniel Wesson of Smith & Wesson) and Nathan Harrington, but the partnership didn’t last too long. Harrington teamed up with William Richardson, and together they formed H&R. During the 20th century, the company shared the struggles and strife of participating in two World Wars, which had no doubt strengthened them, and elevated their prestige and perceived value in the eyes of their customers, and the firearm-enthusiast public at large.
The original H&R (Harrington and Richardson) Firearms business went belly-up in 1986. Life happens. Their assets were liquidated and their building was torn down. In 1991, however, a new company by the name of ‘H&R 1871’ was formed, and – using the original H&R Firearms designs – the new business began to produce several different types of weapons under the H&R banner, which also included New England Firearms.
In the year 2000, H&R 1871 was purchased by Marlin Firearms, which effectively took over all New England Firearms and H&R brands and trademarks. In 2007, Remington Arms Company purchased Marlin Firearms, and made it – and its subsidiaries – part of the Remington Outdoor Company, formerly known as Freedom Group.
In February of 2015, Remington put a stopper to H&R 1871’s production lines, and it has not been renewed yet. At this time, the company is not producing firearms, but is importing them instead. Oldschool H&R firearms (and certainly the military ones) are considered to be something of a rare item, and their units are sold to enthusiasts and collectors who seek them out.
At this time, the company is only importing shotguns, and not manufacturing them. This change took place in 2015, when their parent company announced that the production line for H&R will be closing down. The only shotguns they are consistently importing are of the Pardner variety.
Single-shot shotguns are always in some demand, whether this comes from hunters or collectors. So, let’s go over the company’s stash.
Excell Auto, which included the Synthetic, Waterfowl, Turkey, Combo, and Walnut models. All of these were 12 gauge and included 4 screw-in chokes. The Turkey model also came in 10 gauge, and included an extra-full choke.
Topper, which included the Deluxe, Deluxe Classic, and Jr. models. These came in either 12 or 20 gauge, and .410 bore. They included a modified or full choke, depending on the gauge.
Topper Trap Gun, available only in 12 gauge, with a heavy-duty 30-inch barrel, and an improved modified choke.
Pardner, which included the Pardner, Pardner Compact (Youth), and Pardner Turkey models. This is a shotgun which has been on the scene ever since 1893, and because it has fewer moving parts it is easier to handle and operate. This line is offered in 12 gauge, 20 gauge, 28 gauge, and .410 bore, along with corresponding chokes.
Tracker II Slug Gun, which came in 12 or 20 gauge with a 24-inch barrel, and with a rifled bore choke.
Ultra Slug Hunter, produced in 12 or 20 gauge, 24-inch barrel, and the option of a scope on some models. The Compact version came with 22-inch barrel, and was available only in 20 gauge.
Handi-Rifle, which included the Synthetic, Stainless, Compact, Superlight Handi-Rifle Compact, and Handi-Grip HandiRifle models. There is also the combo version (see down), which utilized rifle and shotgun elements.
Buffalo Classic – This was called a classic for a reason, as it is modeled after the rifles built by Frank Wesson in the 1950s. It sports a 32-inch barrel and a 45/70 Gov’t caliber.
Sportster – This is a line which honors the 22 caliber, and offers this 20-inch barreled rifle which supports 22 S, L, and LR, as well as 22 Win.
Ultra Hunter / Ultra Varmint – For the hunter who has patience and the capacity to commit, this single-shot hunting rifle is up for the task. Available in several calibers and barrel sizes, it is a line which comes ready for scope-mounting.
This line included the Survivor and Survivor Blued. These came in different configurations and with a modified choke as standard. The Blued version came in either 223 Rem. or 308 Win., with a 22” barrel, while the Survivor came in 410 bore/45 Colt, and was available in blued or nickel finish, with a 20” barrel.
There is also the Handi-Rifle / Slug Gun Combo, available in 44 Mag/12 gauge, or 357 Mag/20 gauge. Choosing from 22, 24-inch barrels (12 Ga), or 22, 28-inch barrels (20 Ga), the operator could also fit other shotgun barrels on this system, but not different rifle barrels.
There is a limited collection of accessories available from New England Firearms. Chokes of all sizes can be obtained for the 12 and 20 gauge shotguns. The Invector Choke System was also offered, which would fit most shotguns by NEF or H&R, save the Excell shotguns.
A set of Handi-Grip stock, grip, and forend was available, and this would fit most of the company’s rifles and shotguns. Other accessories included primer carriers and a spur and/or base for Hammers scopes.
The story of New England Firearms and H&R 1871 is kind of a sad one, in my opinion. They were around for many years, did good business, went under, made a lively comeback in the 1990s, but then were shut down (pretty much for good) by their parent company. Far be it from me to judge the execs over at Remington Outdoor Company, but it seems that there are a lot of shooters out there who are not happy with that decision. Like I said, I am not judging, but the forums are still filled to the brim with people who are expressing their dissatisfaction with the way Remington is running things.
In their prime, New England Firearms and H&R were providing the world with top-of-the-line single-shot weapons. They were an integral part of the firearms industry, they helped to sustain and advance the world of single-shot firearms, and I feel that because of that, it is most definitely a company worth remembering.
