Spain: Aznar's High Hopes May Be Dashed
The new government of Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar continues to vow that Spain's public deficit will fall to 3% of gross domestic product in 1997. But with the 1996 deficit on track to total about 5%, and with the latest data showing only modest growth, the chances of hitting the target are shrinking.
Industrial production in June fell an unexpectedly large 5.7% from a year ago. For the second quarter, output was down 2.8%, the second drop in a row (chart). Part of the June decline reflected fewer workdays, but excess inventories and weak domestic demand also slowed output. Consumer spending is shaky amid low confidence and high unemployment: The jobless rate fell only a bit in June, to 22%, from 22.3% in May.
The Bank of Spain has tried to help lift growth this year by slashing 1.75 percentage points off its benchmark lending rate, now a record low 7.25%. But more cuts are on hold until the 1997 budget is released in late September.
Officials already have warned of shortfalls in revenues and cost overruns in the social security system. A wage freeze for government workers and cuts in public investment and corporate subsidies seem the most likely measures to trim 800 billion pesetas ($6.28 billion) in spending. The government expects overall budget adjustments to equal a hefty 1.6% of gross domestic product. But its budget plan also counts on real GDP growth of 3% next year, after a 2.3% gain in 1996. Private economists expect growth at a slower 2.5% to 2.8%, with the deficit at 3.5% of GDP in 1997.
For either forecast, better growth depends on a strong European recovery to keep exports surging and at least one more rate cut. Subdued inflation will give the central bank some latitude to ease further. Consumer prices in August rose just 3.7% from a year ago. And with the outlook for modest growth, price pressures are unlikely to build. That's good, because the central bank will need more room for cuts to offset some of the fiscal austerity that will be a serious drag on the Spanish economy.

Hello all,
I'm stumped with an error code I'm getting from FindMinimum after it runs
for over 7 minutes. Its,
Experimental`NumericalFunction::dimsl: {-0.8} given in -0.8 should be a list
of dimensions for a particular argument.
FindMinimum::dimsl: {-0.8} given in -0.7999999999999636` should be a list of
dimensions for a particular argument.
This is all I'm given. There is no documentation on this error and it seems
odd that I'd get it so long after the function has already been executing.
So, I'm completely stumped...
Any thoughts/advice would be greatly appreciated.

I get WAY better clumps, and my hair has more body. I do the raking with just water (I don't get it soaking wet), and if there are any frizzy parts I put leave in on them (not a lot of leave in). When I put the product in, I actually just lightly run it through my hair (almost like rubbing it over my hair-not raking it). I use mousse now, but when I used gel I did the same thing. After that I scrunch but not too much. I fix my hair one side at a time. It works really well for me, and my hair stays soft but in place. The good part is that I can always add more product if necessary. When it's wet, I can't really tell exactly how much product I need. I hope that makes sense. lol

The current state of dog training in the United States has been an evolutionary process. To examine the current state it is helpful to look back and examine the individual concepts and those that developed the concepts. Understanding the Scientists and trainers from history can provide a better understanding of where various methods began and how they have evolved over time. This gives us a more complete picture of why we do dog training the way we do and how we can maximize our dogs potential.
Ivan Pavlov
No discussion of training history is complete without including Ivan Pavlov. Pavlov determined, in the early 1900's, that a reflex reaction in an organism can be conditioned to respond to an external stimulus. His focus was on digestive tract research but he was able to make great strides into the science of cognition and the functioning of the cerebral cortex.
Edward Thorndike
As Pavlov was working in Russia, Edward Thorndike was experimenting in the USA. His work set the stage for our current understanding of Operant Conditioning. Thorndike's Law says that responses that produce rewards tend to increase in frequency. This thinking has set the stage for the current treat training that is prevalent today.
J.B. Watson
J.B. Watson, known as the father of modern behaviorism was a psychologist who worked at Johns Hopkins University. He is known for his " Behaviorist's Manifesto" where he is a proponent of detached observation and unsympathetic manipulation of the subject. His work helps dog trainers understand and deal with fearful dogs.
B.F. Skinner
B. F. Skinner is generally thought to be the first to publicize the theories of Thorndike and make operant conditioning a formalized science. He brought operant conditioning to the forefront of psychology and moved this science out of the lab and to the general public. He also described the first use of the clicker for training in his How to Teach Animals(1951). Skinner can also be credited with the learning process now prevalent in dog training. This is a fivefold process.
- Give the learner immediate feedback.
- Break down the task into small steps.
- Repeat the directions as many times as possible.
- Work from the most simple to the most complex tasks.
- Give positive reinforcement
He also developed the reinforcement schedules that are practiced by much of the dog training world. These are continuous reinforcement, Variable reinforcement and Ratio reinforcement.
Keller and Marian Breland, Bob Bailey
The Brelands brought dog training out of the dark ages and into the public spotlight. Marian, as a research assistant for B.F. Skinner, learned the principles of operant conditioning and applied them to commercial animal shows. With her husband Keller they started Animal Behavior Enterprises (ABE) and set up thousands of animal shows in malls, fairs and arcades throughout the United States. They started training animals for commercials and began to work with dolphins at Marine Studios. Eventually they were involved in training with various animals for the military. The most famous of these projects was the development of pigeon guided missiles. When Keller passed in 1965 Bob Bailey became the General Manager for ABE and Marian and Bob were married in 1976. In the 1980's Marian became involved with Karen Pryor and her clicker training protocol and consulted as an expert on her Clicker Training Forum.

Phillip loved to dance. All his friends told him not to be so "pleasantly upbeat", but he couldn't help it. He would hear the beat inside his head and he would start to twirl. He would twirl and twirl until he had created a giant whirlpool that made everything around him spin too. In those days many a sailor lost his life to Philip's love of dance, but Phillip didn't care. He knew he was fabulous.

No. 4 USC Wipes Out Wazzu in Straight Sets
Follow, Like, and Insta with @USCWomensVolley
Oct. 25, 2013
Final Stats | Notes | Box Score (PDF)
LOS ANGELES - The fourth-ranked USC women's volleyball team (18-2, 8-1 Pac-12) rebounded from its first loss in conference play by taking out Washington State (15-7, 2-7) in three sets (25-18, 25-13, 25-19) at Galen Center on Friday, Oct. 25. The Women of Troy were led by sophomore outside hitter Samantha Bricio who posted her fourth double-double of the season (15th of her career) with 12 kills (3e, 28att, .321) and 12 digs. Bricio also moved into a fourth-place tie in USC's single-season record books with Janice Johnson (1982) as she collected three service aces to total 53 this season.
The Trojans got 12.0 points from freshman outside hitter Ebony Nwanebu who put up 11 kills (1e, 26att) with a .385 hitting percentage. Senior middle blocker Alexis Olgard had another clean outing with no errors and eight kills on nine swings (.889). Senior outside hitter Sara Shaw (4-2-16, .125), junior middle blocker Hannah Schraer (4-1-8, .375), and junior outside hitter Emily Young (4-1-10, .300) each had four kills for USC while senior libero Natalie Hagglund claimed match-high honors with 19 digs.
USC out-hit its opponent for the 19th time in 20 matches (.310 to .088) as setters Hayley Crone (23 assists, nine digs) and Alice Pizzasegola (20 assists, seven digs) kept the offense rolling.
For Washington State, Hailey Bethune led with seven kills (1e, 21att, .286) while Emmy Allen had six kills (2e, 21att, .190). Kate Sommer put up 14 digs and Kyra Holt added 10 digs to go with her five kills.
The first set started as a drag-out battle but the Trojans used a WSU service error to break a seven-all tie and never trailed from that point on. Schraer took a quick set from Pizzasegola to earn a kill and the 9-7 lead but the Cougars pulled within a point at 11-10 on a kill by Bethune. USC stayed patient and built its lead to four when Olgard went quick for a kill on a set from Crone for a 16-12 lead. Hagglund put up seven digs in the opening frame but earned a big assist when Young terminated for an 18-12 advantage. Young went crosscourt a few rallies later to give the Trojans set point at 24-18. A USC error saved one set point, but Nwanebu's sharp cut shot on the final rally secured the 25-18 win for the Trojans. USC posted a .222 hitting percentage in the opening set with 16 kills (6e) on 45 swings and dug up 29 balls to help keep WSU down at .065 (9k, 6e) on 46 attempts.
The Trojans scored earned points on six rallies topped off by Young's right-handed tip kill to pull out to a 7-4 lead in the second set. Bricio's kill lifted USC to an 8-5 lead, but she came up with three straight kills for push the Trojans ahead by five a 11-6 and forced a Cougar timeout. Nwanebu's kill for a 12-6 Trojan lead had USC hitting .909 on 11 swings without an error. WSU fought to get back in the set, but Nwanebu went down the line for a kill and a 17-8 USC lead. Olgard's quick-set kill from Pizzasegola put USC up by nine again at 21-12. The Trojans collected the final four points of a 25-13 win which culminated in a block by Nwanebu and Kiara Wright. The Trojans were unconscionable as they earned 18 kills (one error) on 26 swings in the second set to record a .654 hitting percentage. The Cougars struggled against USC's defense and finished with a .077 rate (7k, 5e) on 26 attacks.
USC never trailed and was rarely threatened in the final frame. Schraer's solo block of Jaicee Harris helped pull the Trojans out to a 5-1 lead while Bricio bounced a ball of the ground to maintain USC's distance at 11-5. Washington State mounted a comeback and got within a point at 12-11 on Allen's kill, but the Women of Troy had a response and pulled away to lead, 18-14, when Bricio and Alicia Ogoms teamed up to block Holt. Nwanebu went high-hands for a kill to give USC a 21-16 lead and did the same to keep the Trojans up at 22-17. Wright took a quick set from Crone for a kill and got the Trojans set point, but the Cougars kept on clawing and saved two before Nwanebu's kill ended the match with a 25-19 third-set win for USC. The Trojans posted a .200 hitting percentage in the final stanza with 15 kills (6e) on 45 attempts and out-did the Cougar offense which had 10 kills (5e, 42att) for a .119 hitting rate.
The Women of Troy get a day off between matches and will host No. 3 Washington (15-1, 7-1 Pac-12) at the Galen Center on Sunday (Oct. 27) at 5 p.m. PT. The Trojans and the Huskies will do battle on the Pac-12 Networks with Anne Marie Anderson and Holly McPeak on the broadcast. It is also USC's official PINK match. The first 1,000 fans in attendance will receive a special pink mini ball as part of Breast Cancer Awareness month. Please visit USCTrojans.com for more information and for a complete schedule.

However, the biggest cheers are always given for crews receiving the Spirit of the ARC award. It is the selfless desire to assist other sailors, whether in an emergency situation, or as part of a commitment to the cruising way of life, that is recognised by this very special prize. In keeping with the long tradition of the Rally, it was the determination to help another boat that won the award for the crew of Ostrea in 2012, who, with a doctor aboard, diverted to perform impromptu surgery on a stricken crew member on board Johanem.
As a Corinthian event, amateur sailors take centre stage with families and friends; the old, the young; charities, pets, and lifetime dreams all part of the mix. In all, around 80 boats receive prizes at the end of the Rally, almost 35% of the fleet!
There are also prizes which recognise sailing performance within the rally, using World Cruising Club's cruiser rating handicap, to provide an element of fun competition. In a change to the traditional 'One, two, three' ranking, this year prizes will also be awarded to yachts in the Cruising Division that are placed fifth and tenth on handicap, adding an element of uncertainty and fun to the results. Adlard Coles Nautical Publications andYachting World Magazine will be the sponsors of gifts presented to these 'winning' boats.
Andrew Bishop, who has run the ARC since 1998, explains 'I have been looking for a new way to award prizes to yachts in the Cruising Division that recognises a crew's sailing achievement, but which also introduces a random element. Crews can sail to win, but to deliberately sail to be placed fifth or 10th will be impossible! Especially when also taking into account the motoring hours of other boats and the motoring adjustment factor. We have decided that changing the traditional ranking order would be a great way to reinforce the message that competition in the ARC is all about the fun of taking part!'
Plaques for performance will still also be awarded for yachts placed first, second and third in ARC Rally website

Hello all,
I hate to admit this but, I have been trolling you all for a little while now. I have been into waterfowling for quite some time now. I am originally from Ohio, and have lived down here for quite a few years now. The duck hunting down here is completely different than from back in Ohio. I have been lucky enough to find a couple of guys through work, that were willing to take a chance and hunt with me. We have several places we have access too around here (OKC area), and also hunt some public ground too. My inlaws live in the NE part of the state so, I have access to some good ground up there. I am amazed every season at the access we have to a variety of ducks. I am an equal opportunity duck killer. Back in Ohio, on the ground we owned, and hunted, it was green heads only. I know this may sound crazy, but I have really enjoyed the public hunting here in Oklahoma. Ohio has VERY limited access. We have been able to find a couple of spots (because of our ability to get out and look!!!) that are not heavily pressured. Mostly, I believe because of the walk. But it hasn't let us down yet. I just wanted to introduce myself, and let you all know I have enjoyed your stories, pics and ideas, and look forward to getting involved in the forum. I know there is a new members forum, but I didn't figure you guys looked at it. Figured this was a better way. THANKS!

I lived in Austin when Slacker was made in 1991 -- I was a junior at The University of Texas at the time, not cool enough to personally know anyone involved with the production but certainly aware of it when it came out. You couldn't avoid it: The film earned a miniscule release and was ignored at the national level, but in the town of Austin (population about 800,000 at the time), it got the red carpet treatement, playing in local theaters all year long.

There are a range of simple techniques that can be employed by web designers to add the finishing touches to a website design, giving an extra level of detail that makes the design jump from the screen. Jacob Cass takes a look at five of these polishing techniques that can be easily implemented in your next design project to give dramatic results.
First and foremost, this article is not for advanced web designers, as you will more than likely know these tips but you may be surprised by one or two tips, who knows?
These tips are focused on making your website more 'polished' which I will explain by outlining some techniques I have used to create this chocolate gift basket website.
1. Use Anti Aliased Text
Something that is often over looked when designing for the web is the use of Anti-Aliasing in your image based text. For those who don't know, anti-aliasing is the technique of minimizing distortion artifacts. There are a few ways to minimize this distortion in your text but the best way is to make use of your 'Character' panel. You can choose between None, Sharp, Crisp, Strong and Smooth. The best way to see what works best is to experiment as different fonts and sizes will yield different results however the sharp setting usually prevails in most cases.
2. Use Subtle Contrasting Stroked Borders
Something that really makes a difference in making a website pop is the use of 1 pixel stroked borders and lines. These stroked borders really add that extra crispness to the design as it gives extra contrast to the surrounding elements and gives the design more depth. Notice the zoomed-in screenshot above; see the inner purple lines that run alongside the inside of the boxes? You can add these 1 pixel borders by using your stroke option found in the 'Blending Options' or 'Layer Styles' panel. This technique also works great for large text.
3. Use Subtle Gradients
Gradients are popping up everywhere in web design and for a reason – they add depth and real aesthetic to the design. Unlike print design where gradients seem flat, on the screen they make a design come alive. Notice the slight dark to light purple gradient in the screenshot above? Also take note of the slight transparency. These effects give the design a new dimension, making the image come off the screen so to speak. Use the 'Blending Options' or 'Layer Styles' in Photoshop to create these nice subtle (emphasis on subtle) effects.
4. Use A Grid
Although it may sound like basic knowledge, I know for a fact that not all designers use grids however they are extremely useful and in my opinion, vital. Alignment and spacing in web site design creates order, organizes the page and groups parts of the website for easy navigation. In the screenshot above you can see the guidelines in place ensuring everything is aligned (the grid template is from www.960.gs). Notice how the logo and all of the text is left aligned? Also, take note of the even spacing around the boxes and text. Use the guidelines in Photoshop to ensure all of your elements are aligned which can be done by dragging 'rulers' from your rulers tab. Press Ctrl+R to turn rulers on.
5. Use Levels, Curves & Unsharp Masking
In web design, photos, icons and images are usually quite prominent so you should ensure that they are of the utmost highest quality. Check the color balance, sharpness and contrast of each image and make certain that it balances with the rest of the page and other images. A good way to do this is to make use of Photoshop's 'Levels & Curves' & 'Unsharp Masking' tools. Click on the links provided to show how to do this – these functions go beyond the scope of this article.
Anyway, hope these tips help in polishing off your next website. Do you have any other not so well known web design polishing tips?

Tutorial time! This is another basic tutorial that will show you how to machine stitch a plush's head onto its body. Please be aware that I can't teach anyone how to make patterns. I'm just putting together a few tips and tricks that will hopefully help someone.
Step 1:
Sew your plush's body together, leaving the entire back open.
Step 2:
Sew your plush's head together, also leaving the back open.
Step 3:
Match the head to the body and pin. When making your pattern, make sure the circumference of the opening at the bottom of the head is equal to the circumference of the neck opening of the plush body.
Step 4:
Sew a straight line from one end to the other.
Step 5:
The plush's head is now attached!
Step 6:
You should now have a plush with the entire back open! All you have to do now is finish it!

... I guess I'm back?
Well well well... I can't believe the last time I posted something was literally six months ago. Yikes!
Honestly, I have thought about forsaking my blog over the past few months and discontinuing my posts just because I feel that my life is not that exciting and sometimes I feel like I wanna blog about something cool, and I just don't know how to pen it down on paper... or more like type it out.
Then, I realize that it would be such a waste for me to just completely cut blogging out of my life just because I have had this blog since I was 14! TEN FRICKIN' YEARS YO!! Oh boy, now that I've said that, please don't scroll to my 2002 posts and read about stupid lame entries like... 'This is what I ate today' in multicolored fonts and sizes. Please don't. It would be... embarrassing.
*Well, now that I've said it... I betcha gonna do the opposite right?* Meh.
Anyways, the past 6 months have treated me nice and kind. Nothing incredible happened, nothing really tragic happened either. We survived Hurricane Sandy. No one got assaulted when our apartment got broke into and all the laptops in the house got stolen- Yes, I am blogging on my old year 2005 Dell Inspiron that is about to physically break into pieces anytime.
So, what should I blog about today?
Since I have missed 6 months of blogging, I'll do a photo recap. Shall we?

Antellmo and I took had a Photoshoot play date.
I actually got to celebrate Halloween in NYC this year. As you can see, I was a French Maid because I was too cheap to buy a costumes. What can I say, I am a poor struggling actor.
November 2012
I shot an ad for www.thevanityboxhair.com
I had clip on Malaysian hair (yes, Malaysian hair. Apparently it is a demand in the hair weave culture) down to my butt and I got too look like Asian Kim Kadarshian for one night.
Fat Fest came and went. I love that everything was homemade. Check out the variety of desserts! I made a Chocolate cake with Toasted Coconut and Salted Caramel Swiss Buttercream, Tiramisu, and Balsamic Strawberry Salad.
Went for a hike in the cold. Nothing better than Post Prandial Constitution, which is just a fancier way of saying after meal walk.
*To think that people back in the day use to use words like that all the time. Our vocabulary evolved so much that they might think that we're dumb.*

We finally met our 'First cousin once removed' aka. cousin's baby in Maryland. So precious!
Organized our Annual Framily Christmas Party
Of course, there can't be any party without Sue-Yenn's cupcakes!
I made a classic Chocolate Cupcake with Peppermint Buttercream.
Nothing says holiday better but my signature holiday appetizer dish.
Puff Pastry Stuffed with Brie and Apricot.
Christmas with the Walkers.
January 2013
I celebrated the New Year at work, which was not bad at all. I got paid double, drink champagne, and watch the ball drop in Times Square. Great times.
I performed with the Oshedancer Cultural Dance Troupe at the New York Times Travel Show at Javit Convention Center.
February 2012
We finished filming a feature film with Cloudy Sky Films.
I acted as a TV host, wrote and conducted a song with a choir, and had many small disguised parts in the film. Can't wait to see it!
We can't forget my dear sister's Surprise Birthday Party.
I baked a Nutella Rum filled Vanilla Cupcake with Almond Marshmallow frosting.
We had the Framily over our small humble abode for a Chinese New Year Hot Pot dinner.
Yes, our apartment is so small that at least half of us sat on the ground. Japanese style.
Like Sandy, Nemo came and went.
We put on a little show at Heather's 70th Birthday Party
At the Walker's Whimsey.
Another walk around the countryside.
The Oshedancer Cultural Troupe performed at the Malaysian Winter Kitchen at Bryant Park. We performed 7 different pieces ranging from Chinese- Indian- Traditional Malay- Joget- Sarawakian and etc.
It was so nice seeing that we had a huge supportive group of friends that would stop by and visit every time we had a show. #soblessed
So that's my last six months for you! Can't believe that we are already approaching March. Time sure flies.
Stay tuned for videos!

Oshedancer Cultural Troupe
Hello dear readers,
Thank God It's Friday!
My week have been insane and busy. Work picked up and I have been doing nothing but running around the city catering to extremely fortunate, beautiful, and rich folks. Oh what a life (for them I mean). I am finally able to relax and sleep in today. Unfortunately, I had to wake up early to check on my iPhone 5 order with AT&T that I spent 4 hours ordering through the phone last Friday, only to find out that once again the process has been interrupted with SHITTY UNPROFESSIONAL customer service. sigh. Looks like I will not be getting my iPhone 5 anytime soon. Poop.
Anyway, here are some pictures from last week's dance performance for the Malaysian Association of America and Tourism Malaysia!
Masri. An Arabic influenced dance. One of my favorites.
Nadia on the right, which is also the assistant to the choreographer.
The Oshedancer crew in our opening costumes.
The ladies at the back danced a traditional Malay Overture and we followed the performance by performing the Inang Renek- a modern twist of a traditional dance performed in the 15th century for Sultans.
Malaysia Truly Asia costumes.
The Malay, Sabah, Chinese, Indian, and Sarawak represents!

Oh Tranny!
We had a cultural performance at the Consulate of Malaysian for the Diplomats, members of the United Nations, and a bunch of other really important people which I know not of. I was curious as of what kind of eye-shadow colors we would be using for the performance since our costumes are extremely colorful...
Esther: Purple, Brown, and Black on the top. Black and Green at the bottom.
Lynn and Me: *jaws dropped*
Me: Oh my god, I think we are in the running of Who's the Biggest Tranny/Drag Queen.
It didn't turn out that bad after all. Then again, I cheated. I color less, no brown involved :)
Will post more about the performance soon.
One more performance on Saturday!

Foodie Weekend
I came across this picture a couple weeks ago at a friend's Facebook picture album. Puts a smile on my face. Oh those good college days. This was taken on an event organized by the Malaysian Student Association in conjunction on Hari Raya (Malay New Year) and Merdeka (Independence day) about 4 years ago?
Time flies.
Present day.
Same event- Hari Raya Adilfitri and Malaysia day.
The Malaysian Consulate invited all Malaysians for an open house. It was hot and humid, awesome food. It was as if they were trying to recreate a typical muggy day back home. There were people from DC and Philly that came all the way to visit, mingle, and eat. Oh, true Malaysians :)
Can't separate us from food!
Kebaya Girls.
Hope you had a wonderful weekend!
Mine was food-filled with amazing company.
Happy Monday Cheerios!

Cheryl's Strawberry filled Green Tea Cupcakes with Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting
woof. That's a mouthful *That's what she said!*
Hey Guys! Happy Tuesday everyone. Hope everyone's week and weekend went well.
Mine was basically running around doing errands, 5k runs on the treadmill, rehearsals, babysitting, and planning the bestie/roomie/sista's mini surprise party. The surprise itself was not difficult. I just had to bake some cupcakes, and find a way to transport it to the city, gather the framily and VOILA!
But knowing this girl, she's filled with exciting plans and yes, she's pre-booked our entire weekend 2 months in advance for her weekend party. So it is pretty hard to find room in the entire weekend to get the fram together especially when plans hop around like bunnies on heat.
Well, the weekend finally happened. And none of us ended up in the hospital for alcohol overdose. Yay!
Here's my recipe for the Matcha/Green Tea Cupcakes
adapted from MatchaSource
Matcha Green Tea Cupcakes
24 cupcake papers or 1/2 sheet pan / 350 degree oven
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
2 cups minus 1 1/2 heaping tablespoons sugar
2 large eggs
2 large egg yolks
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons matcha tea
Your favorite strawberry preserves, I used a sugar-free one.
Preheat over to 350
1. Beat butter on high until soft, about 30 seconds.
2. Add sugar. Beat on medium-high until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
3. Add eggs/egg yolks one at a time, beat for 30 seconds between each.
4. Add milk in mixture.
5. Whisk together flour, matcha, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
6. Add to batter and fold to combine.
PLEASE DO NO OVER MIX or else your would end up with a dense pound cake like texture. You want your cupcakes to be fluffy.
7. Fill the cupcake liners half full.
8. Bake for about 20 mins. Poke a toothpick into a cupcake to test if it's fully cooked. It should come out clean.
9. Cool cupcakes for about at least 30 mins.
10. Core the cupcakes. I cut a triangle in the middle of the cupcake and take the middle off.
11. Fill the holes with Strawberry Preserves.
12. Clean the top of the cupcake off (don't leave crumbles and too much preserves).
Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting
You can always use fresh strawberries for this. But I prefer to use Trader Joe's freeze dried strawberries because the last time I made Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting, I was reluctant to put a lot of confectioners sugar, and the juices from the strawberries made it extremely water. It looked lie Pepto Bismol. Gross.
1/3 cups of freeze dried strawberries
1 1/2 sticks of soften butter
1 block of Cream Cheese
1 1/3 lbs of confectioners sugar
1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
1. Put freeze dried strawberries in food processor and blend till it's almost powder form
2. Beat butter till it looks nice and creamy
3. Add Cream Cheese till smooth
4. Add vanilla essence
5. Add Confectioners sugar to desired consistency
Baking Process
As you can see, instead of making 24 cupcakes, I made 12 and a cake.
The recipe works very well as a cake. In fact, because I accidentally over mixed my batter the cake turned out to be very dense. It worked well as a cake too. But just to remind you again, don't over mix because it would be better. Trust me!
I decorated the cake with peaches and grapes. You can do whatever you want with it. Strawberries, cherries, kiwi, blueberries... they will all work because everything works with Green Tea!
You can't really see, but I sliced the baked cake in half and smothered a layer of Strawberry Preserves in between the layers before frosting the cake. It's yum!
Yay Birthday Girl!!
Yenn: "Guess what flavor it is!"
*excited smile*
*excited smile*
C: *opens the cupcake liner and sees green*
Yenn: 0.o'
"no... guess again!"
C: *Takes a bite and tastes the Cream Cheese Frosting* *looks at me confused*
C: *Takes a bite and tastes the Cream Cheese Frosting* *looks at me confused*
"Red Velvet?"
Yenn: "Awww.... It's your favorite Green Tea!!!!!!"
*sad face*
C: "Now that you mention it... YEAH! It tasted familiar but I couldn't figure out what it was!!"
Hope all your dreams and wishes come true this year.
Love you gurl. Muah.

Secondhand White Baby Grand (Cover)
Finally! I've been planning on doing a cover of this song a couple months ago. Better late than never I guess ;)
On the other hand, it's been a birthday celebration month! I've attended 3 birthday parties just this last week and this weekend is dedicated to my other sister/roomie. Hurricane Irene interrupted C's birthday weekend celebration last year. I ended up staying at Sam's parents' place out of the city just incase the hurricane got us. I was doing my 5k run today at the gym and spent the entire 30 mins watching the weather channel talk about the possibilities of hurricanes striking.
Better rest up well before we tear up the weekend. Hopefully no hurricanes this time.
New found lounge over looking the city. Breathless view.
The Press Lounge, you'll be seeing more of us :)
A day out with the girls at Central Park.
Bethesda Fountain. Oh so romantic.
Carousel at Central Park!
Summer Bucket list. One item down. Ninety nine more to go. LOL.
Yasir's surprise birthday dinner with the Framily :)
Went dancing with the girls at D's birthday before heading to Party #3
ET's Bday meet- more like a Singaporean and Malaysian meet up.
I've never seen so many Singaporeans and Malaysians in one spot. So unexpected!
It was a wonderful weekend.
Summer is coming to an end. Time flies when times are good.

As part of this partnership, the AAMC is seeking content experts to review medical education apps that have been submitted for certification.
Content reviewer positions are open to trained physicians in all medical specialties and disciplines; those with technology, informatics, and app development or deployment experience are strongly encouraged to apply.
Two content reviewers will be assigned to each app to render a pass or fail decision for certification. Reviewers will be paid a stipend for each completed app review.
Happtique was created by the venture arm of the Greater New York Hospital Association as a place to create customized app stores for hospitals and health institutions. Early on, many health institutions indicated a need for navigating the app market to find credible, high-quality apps that could be used in delivery settings.
According to the Happtique website, the HACP Standards and Associated Performance Requirements were developed under the direction of a blue-ribbon panel composed of recognized leaders in mHealth, health care technology, health care certification and accreditation programs, and patient advocacy, along with input from health care and information technology organizations, and representatives of key federal agencies. The end result was four sets of certification standards and performance requirements that would be used to assess an app's value: privacy, security, operability, and content.
"(The AAMC) had the opportunity to help Happtique in crafting the content standards geared towards medical education by adapting submission standards from MedEdPORTAL," says Michael Saleh, AAMC senior specialist in business development. "Happtique opened the standards for public comment, and once finalized, released them earlier this year."
According to Saleh, the AAMC is in the process of completing beta testing and Happtique aims to officially open the app submission process next week. To learn more about the program or sign-up as a content expert reviewer, please visit: www.aamc.org/hacp.

I haven't had my surgery yet. I'm scheduled for June 1st for a tummy tuck, breast lift, and lipo of my hips. I am nervous but excited too. I don't expect to look like Halle Berry when it's all said and done but like me only a bit better. I currently weigh 155lbs. I have been as high as 225 and as low as 118 in my adult life and have had and breast fed 3 children. That's a lot of tugging on my poor skin!!
I'm mostly concerned about how much I will swell. I'm supposed to go on a Vacation/Family Reunion 8 weeks after surgery. I will be meeting members of my husband of two years family for the first time then. I would rather not look like the Good Year Blimp for that meeting:)
I am also concerned about taking care of my family. I am a stay at home mom with three children of my own and four step children. Yes.... That makes 7 kids from ages 15 to 7!!! My husband is wonderful and they are all good kids but.... What is my house going to look like by the time I'm actually able to be back to my normal routine?? I'm a care taker and not very good at letting others take care of me. So I figure this is a learning experience too. My step children should be going on vacation with their mom and my kids will be going to camp two weeks after my surgery so that should help some. Any advice on keeping up with your household during recovery would be welcome. Thanks!

It's been another fun and frantic week of T-ball play at Idle Hour Park. The kids seem to be having a lot of fun at the plate and in the field, and when the game gets a little boring for the young ones, they always seem to find an interesting and sometimes entertaining way to pass the time.
Rookie year in review
I just got back into Springfield on Sunday after spending a few days in hot and humid St. Louis. My main purpose in visiting was to attend the wedding of one of my former band mates. It also gave me an excuse to see Cindy and check out how the house is coming along that we're fixing up to sell. I thought it would be nice to get away for a while and leave work behind. So what did I do while I was in The Lou? Why, take pictures, of course!
It's been a crazy time at Idle Hour Park as five, count 'em, five youth leagues are keeping the diamonds busy. Along with 9-11-year-old softball, there are also boys and girls coach pitch leagues going strong as well as boys and girls T-ball. Come out and enjoy exciting and entertaining youth league action in between heat waves and thundershowers.
Washington County Commander head baseball coach Derek Schuler took to the field again on Monday to instruct youngsters on improving their baseball skills. Schuler and his staff put the kids through pitching drills and fielding exercises, plus they also got a chance to improve their swing for better contact at the plate. Money raised through the camp supports the high school baseball program.
Several area youths participated in the Washington County Commander Basketball Camp last week. Commander head coach Russell Burkhead and his staff, along with current Commander players, instructed the kids on the finer points of the game as well as basic play strategy and drills. Proceeds benefit the Commander basketball program.
The Washington County Commanderettes softball team recently held their annual awards banquet. Awards were handed out for the 2009 season.
Pooh Railey was named the team's MVP. She led the squad in batting average (.441), slugging (.673), RBI (27) and tied with Olivia Thompson for doubles (9).
Amber Taylor was chosen by her teammates to receive the Commanderette Award. Taylor also received the senior academic award.
The baseball coaching staff at Washington County High School will conduct a summer baseball camp June 22-24 at Tom Bystrek Field at Idle Hour Park.
Campers will receive instructions through lectures, drills and simulated game situations.
For more information or to register, call WCHS head baseball coach Derek Schuler at (502) 639-2617.
The River of Life Church will be holding Upward Soccer registrations and evaluations for girls and boys pre-school through 8th grade on Monday, June 22 and Thursday, June 25 from 6-8 p.m. at the River of Life Church on Hwy. 555.
All games will be played at the church soccer field behind the church. Every child wishing to play must attend one registration. If you have any questions, call Donna Spalding at the church office at 336-7604 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.
Recent WCHS graduate Joe Joe Simms is still making Washington County proud, even after he has received his diploma. This past Friday, Simms was one of two quarterbacks chosen to play for the West team in the Kentucky East Vs. West All-Star Football Classic in Bowling Green.

Jameson Taillon Invited to Major League Spring Training
The Pittsburgh Pirates have invited Jameson Taillon to Major League Spring Training, according to Chris Cotillo.
The news isn't a big surprise, since Taillon was invited to MLB Spring Training last year, and is closer to the majors this year. He won't make the team out of camp, but should arrive by mid-season, just like Gerrit Cole did in 2013.
This is a good time to point out what being invited to Major League Spring Training means for a guy like Taillon. There are two Spring Trainings -- the MLB portion and the minor league portion. The MLB portion is the one that is known, and what people think of when they think of Spring Training. It includes everyone on the 40-man roster, plus all non-roster invitees (NRIs). The NRIs...

I'm not sure what is happening...my older fursib Vandal is gone away and mum is very sad. He was the one kitty that never hissed or swatted me and lately I felt the need to nuzzle and lick him a lot, I could sense he wasn't feeling good. He got sick and mum took him away in his red bag and he didn't come back. Mum says he was very sick and needed to go to the bridge...and that I will see him again someday, we all will.
It's confusing, all I can do is nuzzle her when she cries. I hope she stops soon. Today is Tagger's birthday so she's trying to give him extra attention but I think he is sad too and Biggy Boy is just hanging out in the tub.
Maybe when we go for our walks today she will be happier. I will try to cheer her up by being silly.
Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Dogs who are tagged, need to post in their diary the rules and their 7 pawsome facts. Then choose some dogs to tag and list their names. Don't forget to bark them a pmail that they have been tagged and to read your diary, or, send them a fun Rosette announcing they've been Tagged! And sent them these Rules.
Ok here are my random facts:
1/I came from a Crackhouse.
2/I "mark" with urine...in fact today I literally did a handstand to pee over my rottie friend Cassius' pee on a tree...it was quite a balancing act! Mum wishes she could put it on cue..lol.
3/I have two kitty brothers, and two kitty "roomies"...I am sadly outnumbered.
4/I love poopsicles, much to my Mum's chagrin.
5/I figured out how to open the step can full of my food...then Mum went and moved it somewhere else..sigh.
6/I don't enjoy giving paw....I turn my head away and do a limp wrist offering...geez the things I have to do for a treat!
7/My name given to me at the THS was Petunia! My sister was named Chamomile so I guess it coulda been worse....
I tag:
Nallah 558301
Laila 879067
Asher 418007
Mokie 193791
I just got the good news! The Kurowski pack decided to give a Dogster Plus membership to a dogster, and it's ME!
My buddy Samson nominated me and as I see now in the Plus Fun thread, several other of my doggie friends agreed..I am really really touched and am so glad my dogster pals were nice enough to do this for me and my mum. Dogsters rock!!
The best part of this is that I can give prezzies to my friends who need a lift..as my dogster pals have done for me.
Thanks Momma Kurowski!!
Thanks Samson and all my other dogsters who chimed in!!

Votto, Posey, Tabata in a class of their own
Joey Votto, named the National League's Most Valuable Player on Monday, received some admiration earlier this season for his lack of infield fly balls.
Well, I checked today and Votto still doesn't have an infield pop-up. He's got 558 plate appearances, 382 of which have resulted in a batted ball, and somehow not one of those 382 balls have been a fly ball caught within 140 feet of the plate (the definition of Infield Fly Ball by FanGraphs, and measured by Baseball Info Solutions).
Votto continued this trend through the remainder of the season, finishing with zero infield fly balls in 648 plate appearances. At some point, I noticed that a Pirates player was having a similar season. After digging a bit deeper, I found three players with 400+ plate appearances and zero infield fly balls (...

Whether or not you understand or even believe in evolutionary theory, this performance asks you to explore how your sense of personal identity and your interactions with others are shaped by stories, concepts and metaphors that are linked to evolutionary thought.
Created by Ann Kilkelly with Bob Leonard, in conjunction with Carol Burch Brown, Saul Halfon, Jane Lehr, Cora Olson, the Living Darwin cast and our 2008-09 performance development workshop participants.
Guest artist participants in performance development include Celeste Miller, Elise Witt, Kristen Shumaker, and Megan Carney.
