The Stormers made the perfect start to their four-match trip of Australasia after seeing off the Hurricanes 18-16 in Palmerston North.
The Stormers made the perfect start to their four-match trip of Australasia after seeing off the Hurricanes 18-16 in Palmerston North on Friday.
In a tight tussle played in windy conditions, both sides bagged two tries apiece with Joe Pietersen's boot ultimately proving the difference between the two sides.
The Stormers' fourth victory of the season takes them to seventh place on the overall standings and second on level points (28) with the Bulls in the South African Conference.
The hosts dominated much of the game before momentum swung with under a quarter left to play when wing Gio Aplon touched down for the match-winner to wrest the lead from the Hurricanes.
Some more Aplon magic, this time on defence, rescued a potential Hurricanes try-scoring moment in the final ten minutes and the Stormers worked their way into the 'Canes' 22 where they finished the match with some ruthless defence.
The hosts took an early lead after Barrett raised the flags with his first penalty goal of the night, but the capacity crowd at FMG Stadium had to wait until the 26th minute before the Hurricanes pivot added his second three-pointer.
With Hurricanes lock Jeremy Thrush sent to the bin with 12 minutes of the first half to play, the visitors had their tails up when flank Michael Rhodes burrowed over for the Stormers opening try.
Pietersen's conversion put his team in front for the first time, but the lead didn't last long.
Despite being a man down, the Hurricanes hit back shortly before half-time when wing Matt Proctor crossed for a try thanks to a superb pass from Barrett.
Bryan Habana, returning from injury in a week in which he was denied a Springboks contract, showed he remains one of the fastest men in the game when he charged down the conversion – a pivotal achievement in a match decided by two points.
The Hurricanes led 11-7 at half-time, however Pietersen put the Stormers back in front (11-13) after the break with two consecutive penalties.
But the home side replied with another try – this time through Andre Taylor after the full-back dived over in the left-hand corner. Barrett once again failed to add the extras which proved costly as it kept the Stormers within touching distance (16-13).
A strong Stormers scrum then saw number eight Duane Vermeulen power down the blindside before the ball was quickly recycled for Aplon to slice through a hole and use all his strength to dot the ball down in the tackle.
The wind cost Pietersen the conversion, but the try nudged the Stormers into the lead which the Stormers never surrendered.
The scorers:
For Hurricanes:
Tries: Proctor, Taylor
Pens: Barrett 2
Yellow card: Thrush (28 mins)
For Stormers:
Tries: Rhodes, Aplon
Cons: Pietersen
Pens: Pietersen 2
Hurricanes: 15 Andre Taylor, 14 Alapati Leiua, 13 Conrad Smith (c), 12 Tim Bateman, 11 Matt Proctor, 10 Beauden Barrett, 9 TJ Perenara, 8 Victor Vito, 7 Karl Lowe, 6 Brad Shields, 5 Jason Eaton, 4 Jeremy Thrush, 3 Jeffery Toomaga-Allen, 2 Motu Matu'u, 1 Ben Franks.
Replacements: 16 Ash Dixon, 17 Ben May, 18 Mark Reddish, 19 Faifili Levave, 20 Ardie Savea, 21 Chris Smylie, 22 Tusi Pisi.
Stormers: 15 Joe Pietersen, 14 Gio Aplon, 13 Juan de Jongh, 12 Jean de Villiers (c), 11 Bryan Habana, 10 Gary van Aswegen, 9 Dewaldt Duvenage, 8 Duane Vermeulen, 7 Michael Rhodes, 6 Siya Kolisi, 5 Andries Bekker, 4 De Kock Steenkamp, 3 Pat Cilliers, 2 Deon Fourie, 1 Steven Kitshoff.
Replacements: 16 Scarra Ntubeni, 17 Brok Harris, 18 Rynhardt Elstadt, 19 Nizaam Carr, 20 Nic Groom, 21 Louis Schreuder, 22 Damian de Allende.

Unrelated to this game, but we landed back in New England Monday night after a GREAT week in SanFran
Of all the games to go to...what a bizarre result....but you know what? During the 4th and *5th* quarters....people spent most of it on their feet and getting loud. For a tie, it wasn't a boring tie. It was a memorable experience!
I'll return in a few years to check out Santa Clara...but in the meantime, we had a ball!

Looks like Alex will play for this game...
The 49ers are playing some very tough games in the next three. I expect at least one loss in the next three, and playing Kaep could've added to that total.
Gotta beat the bears and play .500 on the next road trip.
2009-2014. 3 World Series Championships, 2 Stanley Cup Championships, 2 NBA Championships, and a Super Bowl Appearance. 3 No-Hitters, 1 Perfect Game, 3 NFC Title Games, Jim Harbaugh, Bruce Bochy, Phil Jackson, Daryl Sutter.
2015-??? Lakers stink, Kings missed the playoffs, Giants are hanging in there, 49ers are staring at lean years ahead.
Hope harbs makes a good quick recovery.
http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/3608/jay-cutlerJay Cutler (concussion) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, but coach Lovie Smith said he could start Monday even if he doesn't practice this week.
"There is not a whole lot I can say. He is getting better," Smith said. "Don't know if he'll be able to go this week." The early signs for Cutler's Week 11 status aren't looking good, but Smith's comments make it clear the Bears aren't rushing toward a determination. Concussions are not a "game-time decision" type of injury, so we should know Cutler's status by Sunday morning even though the Bears aren't playing until Monday night. Nov 15 - 5:08 PM
http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/7441/alshon-jefferyAlshon Jeffery (hand) returned to Bears practice Thursday.
Beat writer Sean Jensen reports Jeffery was "at least" limited in Thursday's session. Out since Week 5, it puts Jeffery on track to return for Monday night's showdown with the 49ers. Jeffery's return would be a major boost for an offense with almost no viable pass catchers outside of Brandon Marshall. As a rookie coming off such a prolonged absence, however, he won't be worth immediate WR3 consideration. Nov 15 - 5:03 PM
Good luck to Harbs....Love the way he coaches
Time for a statement game. Also, get well Coach Harbaugh!
Cutler and Shea ruled out.

On Franchise Movement
May 16 2011 11:21AM
I grew up in Hartford, Connecticut a devoted Whalers fan. My parents are big hockey fans and some of my earliest memories are of watching the Whale play (or attempt to play) at the Hartford Civic Center. Eventually due to Hartford being too small of a market the Whale left for greener pastures.
I was angry for a while after they left. I stopped following the NHL for a number of years before returning to the game I love and cheering for the Leafs that my goalie coach spent hours telling me about when I was younger. I read today that the owners of the Thrashers are in talks to sell the team to Winnipeg and since I write for a primarily Canadian audience I know what the reaction is likely to be.
If you're from Winnipeg you have reason to be excited: you might have an NHL team again. You should also realize that the heartbreak you felt when the Jets flew south to Phoenix is something that will happen to Atlanta. Sure, the Thrashers don't sell out or even really have particularly good attendance but that's not really the point.
There are thousands of people who care about hockey as much as any of us who are at work on a Monday hoping they won't lose their NHL team. Let's save the "no fans" jokes and sympathize with fellow hockey fans because who knows what happens if the Canadian dollar weakens in the years to come. Regardless of where fans are located and who they cheer for nobody deserves to be jerked around by the NHL.
I think everyone can agree that losing your team, no matter where you are located, sucks. Sports fans put in a substantial emotional investment in supporting their team, however, teams need to be properly placed in markets where they can survive and thrive. With a population of close to 6 million people, why can't the Atlanta Thrashers fill their arena? When compared to some Canadian markets, you can find season tickets for less than half of the same seat (roughly) price.
Some times, sports teams just don't fit the market. Sure, there are some die-hard supporters, but for the most part, no one will care a year down the road. Just look at Vancouver after they lost the NBA Grizzlies.
As a long-time STH of the Thrashers (inaugrual season for 8 years), I'm sure the usual reasons will be tossed around for losign the franchise but keep in mind during the first five years we had consistently 15k or more in the stands. We made one foray into the playoffs and were quickly swept by the Rangers and haven't sniffed the playoffs since. It's been mostly 10 years of mediocre-to-poor hockey run on a shoestring budget. Our ownership group cares not one whit for hockey while they dote over their Hawks. They are incompetent, and untrustworthy. In sum, a bunch of sleaseballs that through their nickel and diming ways finally turned me off (and most of my fellow STH'ers) to a sport I came to love but couldn't stand to put another penny in their cheapass pockets. I will always believe hockey could have made it here, just like it has in Raleigh, Tampa and Nashville. But we're not Canada, you can't trot out poorly-manned, poorly coached teams yaar-after-year with a dsyfunctional and disinterested ownership group and expect the fans of Atlanta to remain invested either emotionally or financially.
I've been "living" in Atlanta for about 2 years, as a student as Georgia Tech. Unfortunately, I haven't really been able to go to a lot of Thrashers games, because school just takes up way too much of my time. However, I do remember when I went to one (against Washington last November) that the crowd, while not the largest crowd I've seen, was a) very enthusiastic, strongly behind their team, and b) larger than some of the crowds I saw on TV when I'd watch the Panthers on TV at home, or occasionally going to Panthers games. Granted, maybe the Panthers have had more success overall than the Thrashers (one SC berth, 15 years ago), and the Deep South probably isn't the best place for hockey (it's basically football or die here, even the crowds at the Atlanta Braves (MLB) games are not great). But as a hockey fan and somewhat of an Atlantan, I would be sorely disappointed if the Thrashers leave. Some of my first hockey memories involved playing NHL 95, and always facing the Nordiques, the Whalers, the Jets. The Jets had a lot of success and some great players (Selanne, Sakic, Bobby Hull come to mind), and I know that the Winnipeg people would love to see professional hockey at the highest level back in town. So in that respect, if there was any city that's going to get an NHL team moved there, Winnipeg would definitely be at the top of my list for cities I'd like. Should this move be made, I'd fully support the team, whatever they would be called (wouldn't be surprised if they went back to the Jets), but 1) I'd be a Panthers fan first and foremost regardless of the outcome, and 2) I'd probably be a little peeved with Gary Bettman and other figures involved.
May 17 2011, 12:19PM
Good to see a little balance to the whole "realignment movement." I will admit that I don't have strong feelings for Atlanta or Phoenix, and that I'd probably be more interested in a team in Winnipeg, but I get that there are people who care about their team, and those people can't be blamed for poor management or for the fact that there are not ENOUGH people who care in those markets to make an NHL franchise work.
Here is what I would suggest though: if your team moves, stay a fan of that team. They are probably going to need the support. Don't get bitter about the fact that they are gone (like some Expos fans hate the Nationals, or Whalers fans don't like the Hurricanes): it's not the players who made them leave, and you liked the players. It may have been ownership, but you have to understand it's a business and ownership needs to make money.
If the Thrashers go to Winnipeg, (or if the Islanders go to Quebec City), the situation will likely be precarious for the new team. Having a strong, geographically-wide fan-base can't hurt.
I have no doubt Atlanta fans will be upset when the team leaves, both of them.
Just like all the Flames fans who cried when the team.... oh wait, nobody in Altanta cared then either, except Jane Fonda and the Magician.

After publishing the short stories 'Belles Histoires de l'Oncle Paul' in the magazine Spirou between 1963 and 1966, Claude Renard attended the Sint-Lukas Institute in Brussels, where he studied painting. He took a few courses in comic art by Eddy Paape, and became his assistant until 1976. For eight years, he ran the famous Atelier R., where he educated a great number of famous Belgian comic artists, including Andréas, Benoît Sokal, Philippe Foerster, Antonio Cossu, Yves Swolfs and Philippe Berthet. Every year, he edited 'Le Neuvième Rêve', listing his students's work.
In 1980, with François Schuiten, he created 'Aux Médianes de Cymbiola', and 'Le Rail' a year later. They also did the art direction and costume design for the movie 'Gwendoline' by director Just Jaeckin in 1984. In 1983, he created the series 'Ivan Casablanca' for the magazine Métal Hurlant. In collaboration with Yves Vasseur, he illustrated 'Les Elfes de Pomariolus' in 1986 and 'Moneuse' in 1987. An accomplished comic artist, Renard is even more famous for the work he has done in the educational field.

Bill Clinton rallies a crowd of nearly 5,000 in Irvine
IRVINE – Former President Bill Clinton was greeted with a loud standing ovation Tuesday evening at UC Irvine, while a sea of cellphones held overhead in the near-full, 5,000-capacity Bren Event Center captured the moment hundreds of times over.
Then Clinton got down to a favorite chore – repeatedly rousing a large crowd with his oratory skills, this time on behalf of both President Barack Obama and a team of five Southern California congressional candidates.
His 35-minute speech started with echoes of his highly touted speech at the Democratic National Convention last month.
"Here's what I know," he told the gymnasium full of mostly students. " 'We're all in this together' works a lot better than 'You're on your own.' Shared opportunity works a lot better than trickle-down economics. Arithmetic works better than illusion."
Occasionally glancing at notes but ad-libbing freely, Clinton spent much of his time touting the five candidates who shared the stage with him and explaining how the individual experience of each was crucial to furthering Democratic values and Obama's agenda in Congress.
The sole candidate vying for an Orange County seat was state Sen. Alan Lowenthal, D-Long Beach, who is facing Long Beach City Councilman Gary DeLong, a Republican, in a newly drawn district that extends from Long Beach to Westminster. Clinton's main talking point for Lowenthal was his work as a state legislator in working with port businesses to develop a plan to cut down on pollution.
"He helped make the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach the cleanest and greenest in the world," Clinton said.
He then took a brief detour to criticize Mitt Romney's proposed tax cuts before circling back to the issue of pollution and global warming. "We have got to increase scientific knowledge. No where else in the world is there a major political party that denies climate change. (Lowenthal) should be elected on that issue alone."
Clinton also urged a "Yes" vote on Proposition 30, Gov. Jerry Brown's proposed temporary tax increase to stave off further education cuts, and a "No" vote on Proposition 32, which would make it harder for unions to deduct members' dues for political purposes.
The other congressional candidates on the stage were San Diego's Scott Peters, Riverside's Mark Takano, Ventura County's Julia Brownley and the Coachella Valley's Raul Ruiz. Each spoke briefly before Clinton's introduction. Lowenthal, a white man from Long Beach, enthused that he would be a Democrat representing an increasingly diverse Orange County.
"We are changing the face of Orange County," he said. "Orange County is no longer just white people."
It was Clinton's first public appearance in Orange County since October 2010, when he held a rally for about 1,000 people for Rep. Loretta Sanchez, D-Santa Ana, at the Old Orange County Courthouse. Sanchez was also on hand Tuesday, though in the audience this time. It was the counmty's biggest political rally of the season, outnumbering the approximately 4,000 people – mostly students - Ron Paul attracted to Cal State Fullerton in May.
Two weeks ago, Clinton appeared at UC Davis to endorse four Northern California congressional candidates. And again Tuesday, Clinton argued the case that it wasn't enough to re-elect Obama – that the congressional candidates needed to be elected to strengthen Democrats' standing in the House, which is now controlled by Republicans.
"If you want not only to re-elect President Obama," Clinton said in closing, "but to see him in a position to enact a second-term agenda that will create a 21st Century America of prosperity, you have to vote for them."

Finally!!!I've been straightening my hair for 30+ years. I used to even put my head on the ironing board until flat irons came out. Needless to say, I've had A TON of flat irons in my life, always looking for the perfect one. I've lived now in Europe for 11+ years and in all these years I have not found a flat iron which gets hot enough. I would usually buy a dual voltage iron and just use it abroad because it's hard to find anything over here bigger than 1/2". They worked ok, I just had to be patient and buy a new one each year. In the meantime, I would buy European products and hope they would work better and get hotter. I've spent TONS of money buying flat iron after flat iron. Nothing worked well and I continually went back to my dual voltage Conair irons. I'm so happy I found this SEDU iron. I don't have to waste my time, the iron gets hot quickly and works great. I'm especially impressed by the light weight. I was extremely skeptical of this product and really worried whether it was worth the price. IT IS DEFINITELY WORTH THE PRICE AND I'M SO HAPPY I BOUGHT IT. FINALLY, I have a flat iron which really works well on my hair!!!!!Jan 27, 2012Adrene / Vienna, AustriaHAIR TYPEDark Brown / Normal Hair / Curly Hair / Thick or Coarse Hair

Best Flat Iron Ever!This is a fantastic flat iron. I bought it for the couple of overseas trips I take annually, and it delivers perfection every time. My Solia for home finally gave out today after a few years, and I threw on my US adapter on this Sedu. It still works great with the low voltage. Now I have a flat iron I can use home and overseas!Aug 23, 2011Lindsay S. / Chicago, ILHAIR TYPEMedium Brown / Thick or Coarse Hair / Relaxed Hair

Great Flat IronI needed a curling iron while out of the US. The product specificaitons on the website told me which country it would work in and it works well. I have coarse, thick hair and this gets hot. I like that it has adjustable heat settings. I like the heat pouch also; all curling irons should come with one.Jan 26, 2011MargaretHAIR TYPEBlack / Thick or Coarse Hair / Relaxed Hair

Amazing Flat IronI purchased this Sedu flat iron this summer when my daughter and I were taking a 3-week trip to Europe. Just can't live without a flat iron! I found I liked it better than my T3 (which I do love) and my daughter's Chi (which I also love). Although we both have high-quality products, I think I'm going to order the Sedu for use in the U.S. I believe this works better on my hair than anything I've tried. I have very thick, naturally wavy hair, and this really smooths and straightens it.Oct 21, 2009Arlene / Danville, CA USA

Sedu 1 Inch Ceramic Flat Iron Made For 220/240 Voltage With E PlugI bought the Sedu 1 inch for a trip to Bali. It has worked great in tropical climate where my hair gets frizzy and wavy. I would recommend it over the dual voltage flat irons that do not last for continual use in a 220-240w voltage country. I have had many blow up over the years.I am very pleased with its straightening effect because it does not burn my fine, colored fine hair. A+A+Jul 27, 2009Jan Euler / Houston, TX

Wonderful, Lightweight, Works Great, Perfect For TravelingI just took this Sedu iron to Sardinia and Lago di Garda in Italy and to Germany and it weighs half of what my iron at home weighs, it is easy to use (no snagging, just EASY), and I loved it. I use a CHI turbo in the US, but wish I had another Sedu with a US plug for use at home. The Sedu is a great lightweight iron to take traveling.Jul 3, 2008Christie / Hershey, PA

Omg!!!OMG! This is the "Straight Truth"! My husband purchased this flat iron for me at Christmas and I am so very impressed that all I can do is shake my head! My daughters hair look like I took them to the salon, and I guess I did..."Straight Mama Style 101"...lol! I cannot wait until my hair grows back, so that I can look like a million bucks as well. My youngest daughter has a really good grade of hair (curly & wavy), and when I used the Sedu on her hair with that Bio Silk...you talking about straight to the root...OMG!!! I was so impressed and she thought she was the BOMB...well, she was, but...:^) Now, she wants her hair straight all of the time and it only takes about 25-30 mins, but her hair is really long too. My oldest daughter is 13, and she wants that wrap look all of the time and I must admit...it looks like Ive been to cosmetology school and have a license!Job well done and this is one of the best gifts my wonderful hubby could have ever given me!P.S. Not to mention, it stays straight for a very long time...about 1.5 - 2 weeks...that you can appreciate!Feb 8, 2008Proud Mama / Atlanta, GA

|In response to Re: pressure switch?
If it is bad, replace it. But it appears that you are just guessing that it is bad. Guessing is not a good idea, because you can spend a lot of money guessing at solutions and not cure the problem. Check the entire system, or have it checked, to see what the problem really is. It could range from a failing well, to a bad switch, with many other options in between.
: I went to help out a little old lady the other day who explained her water pressure would drop real low before "coming back up" to normal, whereas in the past she hardly noticed a difference in the "constant" pressure... She said first thing in the morning, the pressure was up fine, but in a matter of no time it would drop after running a lawn sprinkler, and stay down the rest of the day...
: She has a well with a pressure tank.
: Should I replace the pressure switch, which is probably about twenty years old?

Organic 101: Complaints and How They're Handled
This is the fourth installment of the Organic 101 series that explores different aspects of the USDA organic regulations.
When the National Organic Program (NOP) declared in late 2009 that it was the beginning of the "age of enforcement," it renewed its mission to protect the integrity of the USDA organic seal and the products labeled organic.
Enforcement efforts are a critical part of that mission, and investigating violations of the organic standards alleged by complaints is an integral component of the NOP's work. Read more »

Whoever she is…she is awesome.ReplyCancel
I have no idea but REVEAL REVEAL REVEAL this and she will have a dire hard fan for life here!ReplyCancel
Judy Greer?ReplyCancel
Anne Dudek fits becuz Ive never heard of her. Whoever she is this is awesome.ReplyCancel
That is wonderful!ReplyCancel
Mullally is a good guess – she has a name but pops up in all sorts of surprise roles. Here is an announcement for a performance Megan did at a military base:
As for a face….I think if you say Karen Walkeror Tammy Swanson you can picture her…ReplyCancel
Judy Greer, Holland TaylorReplyCancel
Judy Greer.ReplyCancel
I would love if this was #24 (Anne Dudeck), but there's no listing of her family as military. Her dad was an architect.
She's been in freaking everything. House (of course), Charmed, ER, Bones, L&O, Six Feet Under, Desperate Housewives, Big Love, many others.ReplyCancel
Fugazi Enty, in the future, when giving hints/descriptions of starlets, could you use "This (insert letter here)List Fappening victim….." It would be helpful and really hot.
Sarah Chalke, I've been waiting for you.

Alison FTWReplyCancel
Judy Greer was my thought as well.ReplyCancel
My first guess was Judy Greer, thinking she may have mentioned family in the military in an interview?ReplyCancel
@Mal—definitely not Taryn—it seems like every other blind is about her. "This selfish cracker from an almost tv show…" ***cracker was meant to be crackhead but typo stays***ReplyCancel
Mal—don't think there is such a thing ; )ReplyCancel
The first one I thought of was Allison Janney also. She is on everything and everyone loves her.ReplyCancel
Alison Brie is my guess.
Whoever she is – YOU ROCK!ReplyCancel
KIM DICKENSReplyCancel
oh, shoot, i can't think of her name right now; but, she was Andrea on the walking dead. maybe her. allison janney is a great guess too.ReplyCancel
Judy Greer was my first thought too.ReplyCancel
I checked ..Judy Greer doesn't have any military related support affiliations..
Sticking with my guess of the wonderful Megan Mullally and her numerous contributions and military site performances and donations….so whether she is reveal or not..i salut her:)
This blind sounds so similar to the one about Kellie Pickler. Anyway, this lady is a gem, whoever it is.ReplyCancel

Please reveal this ASAP.ReplyCancel
But who doesn't know Megan's name? Really? She's well known.ReplyCancel
How about Carrie Preston. She's been on True Blood, The Good Wife and makes cameos on A Person of Interest. Seems like I see her everywhere.ReplyCancel
Most people would know Mullaly as "Karen" or "Tammy" if they know her at all (neither Will & Grace nor P&R are the type of series most of the unwashed hordes would watch). I thin she fits this blind. And brava to her. Now I know why Offerman worships her.ReplyCancel

Gorgeous "event" shoes
"I got the black ones in a size 6. And it fits quite perfectly (I have narrow feet).I call it my "event" shoes for a reason - it's absolutely gorgeous. But it is kind of difficult to walk in. I live 50% of my life in heels but I can't manage to walk more than a few blocks with these on UNLESS I'm just casually walking around at an event, where walking is much more to a minimum. The heel itself is a bit too high without any platform which is why it is difficult to walk in for long time.They make your legs look great and are really flattering to any outfit. I just bought them to have for any Black tie events."

I take 6 during every marathon, starting around mile 6. I love them! I usually stick with vanilla because the flavor is easier for me to deal with during a marathon. I have used this for a few years.
Best Uses
Comments about Hammer Nutrition Hammer Gel 24 pack Nutrition:
good flavor, not overly sweet, good consistency
Comments about Hammer Nutrition Hammer Gel 24 pack Nutrition:
the espresso is not so sweet so is tolerated better by my stomach. Seems thicker than other brand gels, so winter weather use can be challenging.
Best Uses
Comments about Hammer Nutrition Hammer Gel 24 pack Nutrition:
These are my favorite energy gels. I really like the raspberry flavor (it tastes like the raspberry filling in those oatmeal raspberry bars - no joke!). I tried a few flavors and only really disliked the orange flavor - it didn't seem like real orange to me. They provide the best sustained energy with no crash, as they are low in sugar. They may be too thick for some people, but I think they're in the middle of the spectrum. The taste and flavor is the best in cold weather, so I recommend refrigerating them if before running if it's no cold out.
Best Uses
Comments about Hammer Nutrition Hammer Gel 24 pack Nutrition:
Have been using Hammer Gel for a while and find that it is the best for me and my training (training for an ultra). I have tried other gels and they often contain gluten which I cannot have and I end up with GI issues. Another plus is the flavors taste great.

Not to be confused with my shortcut brined-in-the-skillet version that ran on this page a couple weeks back. These are two quick refrigerated pickles backed by bona fides. The first comes from the book mentioned in that piece, my precious Quick Pickles. And then after the jump are Mark's favorite kosher pickles, lifted verbatim from both the old and the new editions of How to Cook Everything. Another—totally different—winner.
As long as you don't mess with the proportions in the brine, the flavors and ingredients are totally customizable.

* Board OKs President's contract, other items
The Shoreline Community College Board of Trustees approved the contract for now-acting, soon-to-be-interim President Daryl Campbell.
"Continuity, baby," said Board Chair Phil Barrett. Barrett and Trustee Shoubee Liaw negotiated the pact with Campbell after he was announced as the board's pick at a June 13, 2013 special meeting. Campbell, the former Vice President for Administrative Services, takes over from Lee Lambert, who left for a position as chancellor at Pima Community College in Tucson, Ariz.
Campbell said that during the contract talks, he appreciated that the board members listened when Campbell told them that his family is the most important thing in his life. Trustee Gidget Terpstra reminded Campbell to use his allotted vacation days, saying, "They are important for your well-being."
Starting July 1 and while he is interim president, Campbell will be paid at the rate of $189,070 a year, the same amount Lambert received at the time of his departure, Barrett said.
Campbell said his plan is to be fully engaged and keep learning each day.
" As we move forward, we need to be conscious in how we shape the campus culture," Campbell said, and then quoted Albert Schweitzer about the need to revere life. "We need to chose reverence over negativity. We're always going to have struggles, we're always going to have problems that we need to solve, but we need to treat each other with reverence. The faculty need to be revered. The classified staff need to be revered. Even the administrators need to be revered and the we need to revere the students.
"That is the path I am chosing for the college for this year."
Other board action:
- Elected Trustee Shoubee Liaw as next Board Chair for the upcoming year, 2013-14. Trustee Tayloe Washburn was elected Vice Chair. Confidential Assistant to the President Lori Yonemitsu was re-elected as Board Secretary.
- Approved renewal of second-year tenure track faculty candidate Lori Stephens. A member of the nursing faculty, Stephens' tenure committee chair is Linda Barnes.
- Ratified a new contract agreement with the faculty union, the Shoreline Community College Federation of Teachers, Local No. 1950, AFT Washington/AFT/AFL-CIO. Among other things, the contract includes a new category called "senior associate faculty." The designation is for faculty members who are less than full time, but includes additional pay, possible recurring annual contracts, guaranteed consideration for tenure- track openings and guaranteed eligibility for professional development pool funds. The new contract also updates language around online teaching modalities and allows for increased student capacities for online courses.

Strawberry-Almond Smoothie
About the Author
14 comments:
Totally delicious! Love all the pics, especially the one with your daughter so happy with smoothie in hand. :-) Appreciate the advice from Tom, too. I've been adding almond flour to my smoothies, of late, but will try soaking raw almonds first. Almonds are very satisfying and often keep me from wanting anything sugary. :-)ReplyDelete
Oh my, this sounds so delicious! It's almost strawberry season here so we'll definitely have to try this. I know my husband and daughter will love this. I wonder how this would freeze? I would love to make it into popsicles for my kids. What do you think?ReplyDelete
Brilliant as always. You folks are so creative with food. Thanks for the recipe.ReplyDelete
Wow, this sounds easy and delicious. Can I effectively make almond milk or blend these almonds to a smooth consistency with just my ol' regular blender? I've seen so many people making their own almond milk, but it always seems they have a Vitamix. While I pine for one of those, I'd like to make this NOW! :)ReplyDelete
I have smoothies almost every morning and look forward to trying this one soon! Quick question about the vanilla bean: do you put the whole thing, pod and all, into your vitamix or just the seeds? I guess I didn't realize the pod was edible...do you get a lot of flavor from that?ReplyDelete
Strawberries are going in everything here...and this will be a fiberlicious addition in the morning!ReplyDelete
- Jennifer L.May 12, 2010 at 1:45 PM
We made this today and it was delightfully yummy. I also made the rice cereal and that was tasty too. We have lots of strawberries growing in our yard this year, so strawberry recipes are always welcome! I think I love them best with the cashew sauce from your book. It's definitely a hit with anyone who comes to our house. We are very grateful for all your efforts thinking of new ways to make food taste so good!ReplyDelete
Hi Ali and Tom,ReplyDelete
i really enjoy your blog, however i was wondering if it would be possible for you to post some recipes that would work well for people who have such common conditions as hypo/hyperthyroidism, candida, issues with adrenals, etc. Thank you!
Hi Ali,ReplyDelete
This looks so good! I'll definitely be making it this morning.
Regarding Tasty Eats At Home's question about making smoothies and almond milk in a blender rather than VitaMix - We have an old (at least 20 years) Oster 400 Watt blender that makes GREAT almond milk and smoothies. I have to admit, that I recently upgraded to a 500 Watt Oster blender (on sale for $50), and it makes even smoother smoothies. I'm not sure if it's the extra power or the sharper blades that make the difference.
Ali - I also LOVE the almond milk recipe in your cookbook! I never liked store-bought almond milk, so I didn't think to make it fresh. Then my 8yo daughter was reading your cookbook one day and decided to make your recipe for almond milk, and I've never turned back - we make it every week!
This looks delicious. I'll have to try it later as an afternoon treat. I've read somewhere that the nuts should be refrigerated while they're soaking. Do you think that's necessary??
Thanks all for your comments! :)ReplyDelete
Maggie - Yes! This recipe works as popsicles! :)
Tasty Eats - Yes this smoothie recipe can be done in a regular blender, it just works better in a vita-mix or other high-powered blender such as the BlendTec.
Hallie - yes, the whole pod - just toss it in. So much flavor and much easier! :)
Lisl - I don't refrigerate my nuts while soaking. I suppose if I lived in a very hot climate that would be a good idea but not necessary in the Pacific Northwest! :)
I can always use more smoothie recipes.ReplyDelete
Is this one serving or two? Thanks!ReplyDelete
