melT: The Almond Drop

I met Melissa Thomas on a progressive dining tour with Local Table Tours. We got to talking about cooking, food blogging, the gluten free trend and just how terrible some of the "healthy" gluten free pre-packaged foods taste. Melissa mentioned that she actually made a gluten free treat called The Almond Drop. She told me that her original intentions were not to create a gluten free product, but it just so happened to be delicious and naturally gluten free, so she found herself right in the middle of the gluten free industry. As she was incredibly friendly, a knowledgable foodie, and passionate about her craft, I told her I'd love to sample them and write a post to help spread the word.
I was expecting a small sample, perhaps one or two of each flavor, so I was really surprised when she gave me four whole packages: Walnut White Chocolate Dried Cherries, Cranberry Chocolate, Apricot Chocolate, and Simply Apricot (a vegan treat). I'm really glad she was generous with me because these things were my nightly dessert for a week or so.
A combination of almonds, dates, almond butter, unsweetened coconut, and flax has never tasted so good. These little bite-sized balls are sweet enough (agave syrup) to satisfy my sweet tooth, yet wholesome enough to indulge in more than just one, as those calories (140 per ball) are mostly comprised of nuts and healthy fats. I loved each variety of Almond Drop almost equally, and found that having all four in one sitting made for a most satiating dessert.
You can purchase The Almond Drop here in Boulder at Whole Foods and Lucky's Market. Way to go, melT Foods! That's a well-deserved product placement.
Heavenly Bites
I recently discovered Heavenly Bites– delicious carob treats that will satisfy your chocolate-craving sweet tooth. These "truffley treats" are vegan and made from carob chips (read: no chocolate), which didn't really sound very appealing to me at first. But, Oh Yes You Candy, creator of Heavenly Bites, will change your perspective on chocolate-free chocolatey treats. Trust me.
Jodi Feinhor-Dennis, the mastermind behind these almost healthy treats, has to maintain a very strict dairy-free, sugar-free, and gluten-free diet. After spending years saying "no" to sweet indulgences, she decided to say "Oh Yes You Candy" and created a truffle-sized delectable option for herself and others.
There are three treats in each package, which is just enough to make you wish you had bought two packages… not just one. I tried the Coconut, Almond, and Sea Salt treat and my tastebuds thought I was eating a macaroon. For a total macaroon-lover, this was a really pleasant and seemingly guilt-less experience. I'm definitely a fan of this particular flavor.
As someone who does not have food allergies, I don't often think about what it would be like to have to avoid certain foods. But, if you're limiting processed sugar intake, caffeine, dairy, or gluten, Heavenly Bites are a dessert-solution for you and well-worth a try.
*Disclaimer: I received one package of Heavenly Bites for free after meeting the owner, tasting the product, and suggesting I write about them since I genuinely enjoyed them.
Taste 8: Sweet Potato Carrot Coconut Soup
- At February 9, 2012

Call me old fashioned. But, when he calls me at 9 pm to say he's coming over, I naturally ask if he's eaten. When the response is "no," I think it's time to get cooking. Nine pm is generally considered late to start cooking, so I decided to make something simple with whatever I had in the kitchen. In this case, for my eighth dish in my 14-part series (or challenge:) of giving him a taste of how much I care, I made roasted sweet potato and carrot coconut soup topped with coconut baby bok choy. With a name so long, it might sound like a complex dish, but it was simple and delicious.
Here's how I made it-
I started by roasting two garnet yams (peeled), four carrots (also peeled), and a sliced shallot in a tablespoon of coconut cream (or fat- the thick cream at the top of an undisturbed can of coconut milk) and a few tablespoons of maple syrup. This took approximately 30 minutes in a 400 degree oven.
When the yams and carrots are easily pierced with a fork, remove them from the oven and let them cool for 15 minutes or so. Meanwhile, skim off the rest of the coconut fat and separate it from the clear water. I LOVE this white temptress. I could eat it with a spoon.
Next, coarsely chop the baby bok choy and separate the leafy greens from the celery-like stalk. Chop a little red onion (maybe 1/2 cup), and you're ready to assemble the meal.
Put the yams and carrots, the rest of the coconut water, and enough broth (veggie or chicken) to cover the yams into the Vitamix. Blend this into a perfectly smooth puree (it just takes a few seconds in my favorite 2 horse-power toy). Pour this into a stock pot and simmer on medium high. I seasoned it with some cinnamon, cayenne, Vietnamese Sweet Lemongrass Curry (a Savory Spice Shop original), and soy sauce. How much of those ingredients did I add? I don't know… a little of this, a little of that. I'd say season to your liking.
While the soup was heating, I added the last dollop of coconut fat to a pan on medium high and started to sauté the onion. When that was translucent, I added the stalky part of the bok choy and got that soft before adding the chopped bok choy leaves. Then a splash of soy sauce, and it's done.
Top the soup with coconut baby bok choy and enjoy.
Pumpkin Peanut Curry Soup
Every autumn I have a craving for my pumpkin peanut curry soup. I make it once or twice and then wait until pumpkins are in season the following year before making it again. Each time it comes out slightly differently depending on how much of this or that goes in it. Here's what I did this time-
I roasted a locally grown pumpkin the size of a soccer ball at 375 for 30 minutes or so… I must admit, I totally lost track of time. I have NO idea how long that pumpkin was in there. I'd say 30-40 minutes. I do know, however, that I cut it in half, seeded it (and saved the seeds to make Mexican Mole Roasted Pumpkin Seeds), covered the flesh in butter, and placed it cut side down into a pyrex baking dish with a cup or so of brandy. I am sure of that part.
While the oven was preheating for the pumpkin, I toasted a cup or so of unsalted peanuts. Watch them! It's really easy to over-toast (burn) nuts. Keep an eye on them and get them out of the oven when they're starting to brown and smell like roasted peanuts.
But, before I even put the peanuts in the pre-heating oven, I had a thinly sliced sweet yellow onion sautéing on medium-low in some of the coconut fat skimmed from the top of an undisturbed can of coconut milk. I let this start to caramelize while roasting the pumpkin. In the last 15 minutes or so I added a peeled, sliced apple.
So, when the peanuts were done, I put them in the Vita-Mix and made a little peanut butter. Let's all cheer for the power of that Vita-Mix. What a rockstar appliance. The next step is to blend all of the soft pumpkin flesh, onion, and apple with a can of coconut milk and a cup or so of water into the peanut butter. Start on low, slowly turn it up to 10, then high, and then you're ready to pour it into a pot and get it on the stove.
This is where the fun seasoning starts. I added a few tablespoons of soy sauce, Kecap Manis (called sweet soy sauce- it is palm sugar syrup, like molasses, but from palm), Vietnamese Sweet Lemongrass Curry (available at Savory Spice Shop), and some cayenne. I let the soup simmer on medium for a while and added some thinly sliced kale that cooked down to be nice and tender after 20 minutes.
Just blogging about this now makes me want to eat another bowl. The creamy peanut-coconut combination is a nice compliment to pumpkin. It brings me back to a small kitchen in Siem Reap, Cambodia, where I had my first pumpkin peanut curry soup. Enjoy!

Brisbane Blog 2
Brisbane Travel Blog› entry 1 of 2 › view all entries
Hey people time for another update! Before I continue, congratulations to Graham and Beka on their Marriage, God bless them both!
Last week I started a door to door sales job giving customers 10% FREE green energy to their households. I thought thats a great thing to promote and ill get plenty of sales but..nah! Ive made three sales in four days and took today off to look for a more permanent and stable job. The only good thing about the job was being with other backpackers and chatting to people at their homes was fun, they love my accent so if i didnt get a sale, I got a long chat and a drink or like yesterday I sat down with a couple and had a beer!
On Sunday I went to Brisbane city church which was very charismatic to say the least but afterwards I got invited to the park for lunch and had a kick about which was good.
Its still hot here incase anyone is interested (about 28 degrees) but im used to it now...just need to find some time to sunbathe but job hunting is more important I guess lol. Im still enjoying myself over here but obviously having a job would make things a lot better!..I could maybe rent a flat too for cheaper instead of staying in a 8 bed doorm.
Oh, it also turns out I cant go anywhere in the world without knowing someone! On Sunday night I was cooking my tea in the kitchen and recognised a guy who said he recognised me too. It turned out he was in the year above me at school and in the football team and I used to see him working in USC back home haha.
Thanks for reading again and hopefully when I do another update, Ill have a job or a cheaper place to live!

CCI Blazer Clean-Fire 38 Special, +P, 158 Grain, TMJ, Aluminum Alloy Case, 1,000 Rds. per Case.
- Details
- How to Purchase
- Restrictions
CLEAN-FIRE® Like Speer® Lawman® Cleanfire ammunition, CCI Blazer Clean-Fire offers all the same Clean-Fire benefits, but at a much lower cost. Why? Again the savings is in the case. Blazer Clean-Fire cases are made from a high-strength aluminum alloy. These cases are every bit as effective as brass except that they are non-reloadable and cost less. Blazer Clean-Fire significantly reduces airborne lead associated with indoor training. For a shooter, the main exposures to the heavy metals lead, barium, and antimony are at the firing point. The most significant is the lead residue emitted from the primer. CCI Blazer Clean-Fire ammunition virtually eliminates lead generated at the firing point by combining a TMJ® bullet with a priming mixture that contains no lead, barium or antimony. Blazer Clean-Fire ammunition is loaded with the same double-base propellants as conventional primed ammunition. Copper plating through our Uni-Cor® process forms a pure copper jacket which totally encases the lead core. This is more than a mere copper flash or copper wash. The Clean-Fire TMJ bullets get a uniform jacket applied electrochemically—one molecule at a time. The final step is a second swaging of the bullet for greater accuracy. Blazer Clean-Fire ammunition delivers the same level of performance, function and accuracy as standard ammunition. #3475 - CCI Blazer Clean-Fire 38 Special, +P, 158 Grain, Totally Metal Jacketed, Aluminum Alloy Case, 1,000 Rds. per Case.

Confab Impressions Part I: The Search Haters
This week I attended Confab 2011 and, as I have been telling everybody, it was the best conference I have ever attended. That's saying a lot because there was a period between 1997 and 2003 when I attended dozens of them as EIC of ComputerUser.com. Congratulations to Kristina Halvorson and the kind and cheerful staff of Brain Traffic for doing such an awesome job.
At the conference, I attended several great keynotes and other talks by such notables as the venerable Ginny Redish and the awe-inspiring Ann Handley. I have a lot of great things to say about their talks, but it will have to wait until the next two blog posts. First I have a rant about a couple of other talks I witnessed.
Two speakers at the conference exploited tired old search myths to dismiss search as a legitimate concern of content strategy. Steve Rosenbaum gave a talk about how the flood of data is overwhelming search algorithms, leaving human curators to do the work of machines in helping people find the content they need. Christine Perfetti claims that if users are forced to search for information, it is an indicator of UX failure. The arguments they use to defend these claims are flawed. In fact, as the flood of data overwhelms users, they turn increasingly to search for a short-cut to navigation. I'll explain why after the break.
Rosenbaum's Flawed Logic
Rosenbaum's argument for the death of search hinged on two facts. First, since the dawn of the web, public digital information has grown exponentially and shows no signs of slowing down. It's hard to believe any algorithm can keep up with the data deluge. According to Rosenbaum, the so-called Panda (aka Farmer) update to Google's algorithm is a tacit acknowledgement that Google is increasingly clueless about how to rank pages. As proof of this, Rosenbaum showed two NASCAR sites that have nearly identical content: one is the first site for the given keywords, the other is on page 8 of the results.
Without showing us how the two sites are indeed identical ( keyword usage, inbound links, URL structure, metadata, etc.), the audience was forced to take his word for it. But as someone who typically sees dramatic improvements in organic search ranking from simple white-hat SEO techniques, it seems like a fluky case. He would need to do a more general study showing how multiple functionally identical pages have radically different ranking to prove his point. One case does not an argument make.
But that was not the main flaw in his logic. The main flaw was in saying search is dead largely because it is flawed. I'll be the first to admit search engines leave a lot to be desired. Since when has it ever been much better? As information has exploded, Google's ability to keep up has ebbed and flowed. But the general trend is toward increased search usage in spite of the data deluge. Users have learned to live with search's limitations to do more sophisticated long-tail searches and find more relevant content.
I'm sure there is some variation between audiences, but according to Tech Target, 96 % of our target audience (B2B IT decision makers) frequently or always use search to find the information they need. According to an unpublished Google study that I have had the privilege of seeing, search usage has doubled worldwide since 2007 and the trend is accelerating. At this rate, search usage will double again within two years. It looks to me like search is alive and well.
Thing is, Rosenbaum doesn't need to dismiss search to make his point: Curation is a growing concern among the masses. More and more people are using Twitter and other social venues to help their friends and followers find relevant information. They curate feeds of content and share them with like-minded peeps on the web. This seems indisputable. And it might cut into search's growth a bit. But there's just so much data, we need all the automation we can get to make sense of it all. Indeed, search is a key way savvy curators find and share relevant content to round out their feeds. What are hash tags if not devices to help users find relevant content when they search on those words in Twitter? In short, search and curation are not mutually exclusive. Rather, they complement one another.
Perfetti's Falacy
In the course of an otherwise informative talk about usability studies, Christine Perfetti pulls out a claim that I thought was long since debunked: If a user reverts to the search box at the top of a page, it means the UX needs improvement. Study after study at IBM shows our users preferring search to navigation in many circumstances, regardless of how clear our UX options are. Since changing our masthead search function last year, we have seen twice as many users per month searching for relevant content with our internal search engine. The obvious implication is, if you give them a useful search experience, they will use it in favor of poking around in our navigation.
When you unpack this, it's easy to see why. By way of example, Perfetti showed the UX of the Microsoft.com site, noting that the sheer volume of options overwhelms users. I would say we have the same problem on ibm.com. With literally hundreds of offerings to promote and support, there is just no way we can surface every relevant offering to users without overwhelming them with choices. In this environment, they prefer to search for content related to their informaiton tasks. There is nothing wrong with that. It is a simple fact of information overload. Besides, you can't design experiences for every user task. Design for the top tasks and let search do the rest. And search is the ultimate top user task.
Search is the central digital behavior and it likely always will be, as information continues to grow exponentially and mobile devices proliferate. The sooner people accept this reality, the sooner they can begin designing content experiences their users will want to engage in.
May 16, 2011 7:21 pm
I agree that using on-site search does not represent UX failure. Over 6 years ago I observed a usability test of a new navigation system we had designed for a major auto manufacturer's site. One of the participants was an unshakable search-as-primary-navigation proponent. No background in marketing or user interface design, mind you – he simply found almost all corporate navigation systems confusing and preferred "the direct approach."
Sure, this represents UX deficiency *elsewhere* but the fact remains that he (and users like him) find search results to be a more effective way of finding the content they want. Retraining all such users isn't practical; factoring in on-site search as a co-equal navigation device is the way to go.

Science can't explain the power of pets, but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure (Ѫѹ) and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack, reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer.
Any owner will tell you how much joy a pet brings. For some, an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife. A 2002 study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress (����) levels and blood pressure in people �� half of them pet owners .while they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic (����) or held a hand in ice water. Subjects completed the tasks alone, with a husband/wife, a close friend or with a pet. People with pets did It best .Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned Most quickly to baseline heart rates .With pets in the room ,people also made fewer math mistakes Than when doing in front of other companions. It seems people feel more released (����)around Pets, says Allen, who thinks it may be because pets don��t judge.
A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits. Researchers at Northwesterm Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36 fat people and were put on a diet-and-exercise programs; a separate group of
56 fat people without pets were put on a diet program. On average��people lost about 11 pounds�� Or 5% of their body weight .Their dogs did even better��losing an average of 12 pounds��more than 15%of their body weight .Dog owners didn��t lose any more weight than those without dogs but ,say Researchers��got more exercise overall �Cmostly with their dogs �Cand found it worth doing.
67��What does the text mainly discuss?
A��What pets bring to their owners B��How pets help people calm down
C��people��s opinions of keeping pets D��Pet��s value in medical research
68��We learn from the text that a person with heart disease has a better chance of getting well if ____________
A��he has a pet companion B��he has less stress of work
C��he often dose mental arithmetic D��he is taken care of by his family
69��According to Allen, why did the people do better with pets around when facing stressful tasks?
A��They have lower blood pressure. B��They become more patient.
C��They are less nervous. D��They are in higher spirits.
70��The research mentioned in the last paragraph reports that
A��people with dogs did more exercise
B��dogs lost the same weight as people did
C��dogs liked exercise much more than people did
D��people without dogs found the program unhelpful

Why visit Singapore?
Singapore is a vibrant and diverse city and one of the most interesting places to visit in Asia. With English as one of the official languages, it is easy for travellers to navigate. Singapore is a shopper's paradise but the heart and soul of this beautiful city is in the architecture and cuisine. Food festivals, cultural holidays, car races, national shopping sales and festivals are taking place on a regular basis and it is always a good time to visit!
What to see and do in Singapore?
[v_icon color="#1e73be" size="18px" target="_blank" name="moon-arrow-right-17″] Singapore has been voted as one of the 5 cleanest cities in the world and boasts lovely green parks in the middle of the city. If you want to escape the feeling of being boxed in by skyscrapers, visit the Botanical gardens and Gardens by the Bay, to name a few. Did you know that over 50 percent of the city is comprising of greenery?
[v_icon color="#1e73be" size="18px" target="_blank" name="moon-arrow-right-17″] If you have never seen a Cantonese Opera show then we recommend that you head down to Chinatown. Shows take place every Friday and Saturday and you will be able to see opera classics with full costume and makeup. It is an incredible experience and there are many photo opportunities.
[v_icon color="#1e73be" size="18px" target="_blank" name="moon-arrow-right-17″] The skyline is especially breathtaking at night and can be viewed from many locations in the city. If you love skyscrapers and adrenaline then you can go swimming at the infinity pool where you have an amazing view of the city. You have to be a guest of the hotel but there are tours to the observation deck.
[v_icon color="#1e73be" size="18px" target="_blank" name="moon-arrow-right-17″] A visit to Little India is a must. Here you will be able to see how the local Tamil Indian community lives. If you want to try authentic Indian food, then this is the place to go to. Don´t forget to try the Muthu's Curry. The best time to visit is when the Indian holidays of Thaipusam and Deepavali are celebrated.
[v_icon color="#1e73be" size="18px" target="_blank" name="moon-arrow-right-17″] Wander around historical buildings, visit top museums and shopping malls. The harmony between old-meets-new architecture will impress. Neighourhoods like Tiong Bahru and Joo Chiat are recommended.
Where to stay in Singapore?
Choosing the right hotel in Singapore can make or break your stay, whether it is for business or pleasure. It boils down to preferences. Do you want to have a spectacular view or do you want to be close to swanky restaurants and pulsing nightlife? Singapore offers a variety of accommodation that will put you in the center of the action.

RWE Dea Hits Gas at Disouq in Egypt
RWE Dea has discovered gas and condensate in the Disouq Concession -- Onshore Nile Delta. The North Sidi Ghazi-1x well encountered a gas bearing sandstone interval of 42 m column within the Upper Messinian reservoir sands. Formation evaluation confirmed the encountered section to be Gas bearing with average porosity of 20 percent.
RWE Dea commenced testing operation on the North Sidi Ghazi-1x well. The test results from the perforated interval (2,752 m to 2,770 m) revealed a flow rate of 37 MMscfdg on a 50/64-in. choke.
The concession was awarded to RWE Dea on July 2004 with a 100 percent interest. The Disouq Block covers originally an onshore area of 5,523 square kilometers within the densely populated farmland of the Nile Delta region of Egypt. 3,500 square kilometers of 3-D seismic have been acquired and evaluated since 2006.
Immediate plans are to complete testing and perform a detailed evaluation. A second exploration well (South Sidi Ghazi - 1x) will be drilled to test another potential Messinian structure.

By posting this recipe I am entering a recipe contest sponsored by The Mushroom Council and am eligible to win prizes associated with the contest. I was not compensated for my time.
When I started this blog, my sweet great-grandparents began sending me some of their favorite recipes. One of their favorites, Hamburger Monterey, quickly became a favorite in our house as well and brought back fond memories of my mom also making this dish when I was young. It also seems to fit, as we are living in Monterey, California right now.
I really love making recipes that are passed down from generation to generation. A couple months ago I posted some recipes from the hubby's grandmother's handwritten cookbook, and I am really happy to post this recipe from my side of the family.
Probably the biggest shock to me when I started eating and learning about real food is the cost of local, humanely raised meat. When you are used to paying a buck a pound for conventional ground beef, $4-$5 a pound (in California) is quite a jump! For us, I think the extra cost is worth it in the long run. I feel better about the meat because it was produced humanely and was fed good food, unlike conventional meat that was grown in close quarters, fed corn, and diseased. If you haven't seen it, you should check out the documentary, Food Inc. for a look into the meat industry.
There are ways to stretch out your budget and get more meals out of the same amount of meat. One of these ways is to use some type of meat filler, like maltodextrin, cornstarch, or the infamous pink slime! Fast food is known for adding other stuff to their meat to make it go farther. We can do the same thing at home, but in a much healthier way. What about using mushrooms? Because mushrooms are way better for you than cornstarch and breadcrumbs, or fast food meat fillers.
Did you know you can finely chop mushrooms, sauté them, and mix them with ground beef? It is called "blendability", according to the Mushroom Council.
Using this technique can help save money. Plus, getting more veggies into your diet is always a good thing.
I've made Hamburger Monterey several times and decided to try it replacing half the meat with mushrooms. Guess what… 1/2 pound of ground beef gave us five meals! Now $4-$5 a pound doesn't sound so bad! The other 1/2 pound of meat was used a couple nights later to make two burgers. So that is a total of 7 servings on 1 pound of ground beef!
Speaking of burgers, the Mushroom Council is holding a Facebook Swap It or Top It Contest! If you have a great burger recipe that uses the blendability technique explained above, uses a portebella in place of the meat, or tops the burger with mushrooms, then you can enter. The winner gets $5,000!
This Hamburger Monterey dish makes great leftovers and freezes well. I like to make it in my large cast iron skillet. I seriously use that thing for everything!
- 6 strips bacon
- ½ pound ground beef
- ½ pound cremini mushrooms
- 1 medium onion
- 1 green pepper
- 1 red pepper
- 1 yellow pepper
- 1 can kidney beans
- 2 cups tomato sauce
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- ½ teaspoon arrowroot powder*
- salt and pepper to taste
- ½ pound white or yellow sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup dry whole wheat elbow macaroni or penne
- Dice bacon and fry until crisp. Remove bacon and reserve bacon grease.
- Meanwhile, finely mince the mushrooms (I did this in my Vitamix). Saute in a little oil in a separate pan.
- Mix ground beef and sautéed mushrooms together in a bowl. Form into 1 inch balls and cook in the bacon grease until browned, a couple minutes each side.
- Remove and set aside.
- Meanwhile, boil the water and cook the pasta two minutes less than the package recommends.
- Dice onion and peppers and saute in the same pan until soft.
- Add kidney beans, tomato sauce, chili powder, arrowroot powder, salt and pepper, and bacon.
- Lower heat to medium-low. Add cheese and stir until it melts.
- Add pasta and meatballs, and simmer on low for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Do you guys have any tips on saving money while eating real food? I'd love to hear them!

Bigger and better than ever, this issue features 87 PAGES OF ALL-NEW, NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN story and art!! Beyond John Nadeau's breathtaking digitally-painted cover, you'll read the stunning conclusion to the long-running "Living In Synn" storyline, in a 24-page lead feature written by Mark Heike, with art by Rock Baker and Jeff Austin. Learn the REAL reason behind Synn's loss of control, and see MS. VICTORY, STARDUST and NIGHTVEIL shrink to microscopic size to deal with it. You MAY be shocked to learn the cause of it all, and who saves the day in the end!!
Then, it's STORMY TEMPEST in the far-flung future, in the conclusion of the two-part adventure started in FF #156. It's "A Big Hand For The Little Lady", written by Bill Black, with art by Eric Coile and Scott Shriver. Intergalactic bounty hunter Clayton the Sleeper finally gets his!
And in the aftermath of Synn's rescue, NIGHTVEIL returns to her Everglades sanctum. Unable to leave well enough alone, her mystical meddling brings our world a new meanace, WAMPYR, the vampire sorceress, in "The Best of Intentions", with a script by Mark Heike, and art by the team of Baker and Austin.
And if ONE STORMY TEMPEST story in this issue was not enough, here's another!! "Time Grows Short" wraps up the serial adventures of STORMY in the present-time, as written by Len Strazewski, with art by Scott Larson and Jeff Austin.
Next, the quiet between cosmic adventures is no respit for TARA FREMONT, as she runs afoul of that giant-sized bad girl Marla (HUMONGA) Allison in "Big Temper", written by Eric Johnson, pencilled by Dan Gorman and inked by Jeff Austin.
Then, return to the war-torn days of the early 1940′s as DINOSAUR GIRL and her allies The War Birds must deal with a new threat to the Allied forces- giant prehistoric reptiles, in "Priorities Of War", the 17-page first-half of an epic tale written and drawn by Rock Baker, with inks by Scott Shriver.
And last- but certainly NOT least, Will Meugniot's smash hit N.E.D.O.R. AGENTS series is back with it's latest installment, "Lunar Trap For Pyrogirl". With the 'lectrical lass headed for the moon straight into an alien ambush, how can the rest of her teammates save her back in 1965? You'll have to read the story to find out!! Written, penciled and inked by creator Will Meugniot, of course.
BONUS- this issue features the first-ever cover appearance of the N.E.D.O.R. AGENTS, as the NA feature is being run as a flip-book with FEMFORCE, the back cover being N.E.D.O.R. AGENTS #0!!

You need to have your password remembered for meeting notifications to come up.
BTW I have my password stored and meeting notifications don't come up. On top of which, it's supposed to be (and appears to be) integrated into the gnome calendar. I don't get notifications for local meetings either.

EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton strongly backed the amnesty law that is aimed at integrating Kosovo Serbs into Pristina's legal system by decriminalising past resistance.
EU foreign policy chief Ashton on Wednesday urged the Kosovo parliament to adopt the controversial amnesty legislation which was voted down last week amid public opposition to a clause that could be used to pardon violent criminals.
"My interest is to make sure that what is agreed [in April's Pristina-Belgrade deal to normalise relations] is implemented," Ashton said after meeting Kosovo prime minister Hashim Thaci in Pristina.
Hashim Thaci described the new legislation, which has been revised and sent back to parliament for a new vote on Thursday, as an "important and necessary political act".
"The law on amnesty is a political act which leads to the reconciliation of people," he said.
Responding to the draft law's failure to pass, the government on Friday removed the controversial section of the legislation which envisaged reductions in punishments for those convicted of crimes including murder, manslaughter, harassment, defamation, assault and theft.
It added a new article which states that "all criminal offences which resulted in bodily harm and murder will not be amnestied".
The legislation aims to help integrate Serbs in north Kosovo by ensuring they are not prosecuted for resistance to the Pristina authorities in the past, which would prevent them from taking roles in Kosovo public institutions in the future.
The muted response to the Croatian town of Vukovar's decision to scrap controversial bilingual signs in Latin and Serb Cyrillic script suggests the EU has lost focus on minority rights, analysts claimed.
The trial of Zdravko Mustac and Josip Perkovic, former Yugoslav spy chiefs accused of killing a Croatian émigré, heard that the victim repeatedly told his German lover that he was living in fear.

I'm Kris! My Dh adopted my dd (8) from a previous marriage & we have a son (4)together. He has 2 dds from his previous marriage 11 & 15 who live with their bio mom in another state.
We are on both sides of the coin here. I fought tooth & nail & put myself in major debt to protect my dd from her bio dad. He is bipolar and untreated. He has major anger management issues and is/was emotionally abusive. I fought & got sole physical & legal custody of dd. Eventually he gave up his parental rights.
On the other hand, my current DH is an amazing father. His ex cheated on him several times during there marriage - even to the point of getting pregnant with another man's child. Dh forgave her & raised that child as his own. His ex has caused us so much trouble & has kept the kids away from us. She wanted to be the perfect family with her current husband - who btw she is now divorcing after 4 years. Dh has struggled to see his girls & his ex has done so much bashing to his oldest dd that he barely has any relationship with him. She won't come to our house. The youngest is a doll & hadn't been to our house in 1 1/2 years but now has been to see us twice this summer. She's finally old enough to stand up for herself.
Anyhoo, I'm sure your reason for wanting full custody are justified. I hope you win - from my experience, it is very tough to get sole custody. Courts want both parents. But depending on the circumstances & how you play it - it is possible. Although quite honestly it doesn't really mean much. It just means that bio dad has no say in medical decision, schools or church. It has absolutely no bearing on visitation. I had sole custody & my ex still had visitation rights.

The High Definite Turns 3 Years Old Today; Is On VacationSeptember 3rd, 2011 by Endswell in Site News
As of today, I've spent the last 3 years browsing the web and serving up the best I felt it had to offer with the goal of entertaining you for 5-minutes on a daily basis. I sincerely hope I've succeeded with at least a few of you in this endeavor. There are a lot of people that helped make this possible and I will write up a mushy "thank you" post as soon as I'm back in San Diego (hopefully in conjunction with the release of our new mixtape, High & Tight). At a minimum, I'd like to thank those of you that have been reading this site since its modest inception. In the meantime, I will be in Maui for the next week so The High Definite will be in vacation mode. Posts will be light but there will be posts. I will be sending updates on HighDef's Twitter account when new posts are available, so if you're not following that, then you're a step behind other people that make better choices than you. I will also be posting random shit from the trip on that account. I can't imagine a better group of readers. Thank you for your continued support. -Ends

One of the great laments of the mothballs-in-their-pants set of the vintage car world is the demise of carburetors. These newfangled kids don't know how to adjust a carburetor with a shoelace, crumpled up Chesterfield, and piece of elbow macaroni. Fuel injection is all part of a larger Trilateral Commission conspiracy to keep track of our special thoughts. And so on. Don't get us wrong. We like carburetors just fine, but seeing as the last production carbureted cars included the 1990 Subaru Justy and Buick Estate Wagon, chances are better than average that the car you're driving has electronic fuel injection. Time waits for no one, and few would argue with butter-smooth power delivery and drama-free cold starts delivered by fuel injection. Things can and do go wrong.
The 1987 Mitsubishi Starion ESI-R uses something in between a carburetor and multipoint fuel injection known as throttle body injection, or Electronic Controlled Injection (ECI) in Mitsubishi parlance. Unlike multipoint fuel injection systems which feature an injector for each cylinder, the Starion uses only two fuel injectors – one primary injector for idling and part throttle driving, and a secondary injector for full or wide open throttle turbo boosted entertainment. This arrangement functions similar to the primary and secondary bores in a carburetor such as a Thermoquad or Quadrajet. Like a modern automobile, the Starion has very large array of sensors which telegraph realtime information to the engine computer, which uses this data to deliver fuel and spark for butter smooth engine operation. Usually.
Getting back to the elbow macaroni and Chesterfield for a minute is the news that computerized engine management and available electronic diagnostics equipment have come a very long way since the Starion was built. Shown here is an example of engine diagnostics equipment circa 1985. This factory-issue Mitsubishi ECI checker runs multiple routines to check temperature sensors, mass air flow meter operation, oxygen sensor, throttle position sensor voltage – but not simultaneously. It took two people, a printed book of voltage tables and conditions, and about an hour of turning knobs and connecting a tangle of Medusa-like leads to run the tests. The result? Even after almost three decades, the electronic sensors and systems in the Starion passed.
A special thanks to the Chris Jensen for loaning us this genuine Mitsubishi ECI Checker and Mark Nelson for helping with the test.

{Mashup} Party Girl
What does one wear to her 2nd rez day party? For me, pink and jeans of course! Ribbons, pearls, dark denim, pale pink mix well to capture my personality and personal style.
Truth Hawks makes some of the grid's sought after hairstyles. This one is one of them. The loose updone bun with the dramatic front sweeping bang stands up well with the color changeable bow. Here, I turned it white to blend well with the white pearl choke. Lately, my most reached for jewelry has come from Gensis. One of my favorites is this classic multi-strand pearl choker turned into a sleek sophisticated accessory. The added feather and mini bow element is what truly attracted me to this peice.
For the shirt, which is really a mini dress, if from Ce Cubic effect. It really keeps your eyes moving across and down with every turn. The front sculpty piece to the large key-hole open back lends so well to the excessively long sleeves and swooping skirt. I paired this with another great Truth product, dark denim. I really enjoy the pale white pink color against the nearly black denim cuffed jeans. The true scene stealer is shoes. Of course, they are pink. Look closer. They are jeweled! Amazing detail, too many to list, is present in this design. To help pull the look together is my favorite Dutch Touch skin, Indie, in the summer tone.
Thank you everyone for a terrific party! Great tunes, amazing friends, designers, bloggers, podcasters, and plurkers… I had such a great time and you all made it possible!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
