PowerShot G1 X
The Pinnacle of PowerShot.
Bright, fast and more creative than ever: advanced technologies come together for an exciting new camera that moves beyond anything the G-Series has seen before. The PowerShot G1 X digital camera will inspire advanced amateurs who have embraced the G-Series to explore new realms of photographic expression, and give pros an excellent camera that complements their creative demands. The new 1.5-inch High-Sensitivity CMOS sensor approaches an EOS DSLR's APS-C sized sensor, with a light-sensitive area that's approximately 6.3 times larger than that of the PowerShot G12 digital camera. The new 14.3 Megapixel sensor, combined with a new lens and DIGIC 5 Image Processor, creates the HS SYSTEM that delivers image quality previously impossible in a compact camera, with beautiful blur, lower noise, and extraordinary resolution in low-light shooting and can shoot at ISOs of up to 12800. The PowerShot G1 X also has 14-bit RAW capabilities for even greater creative control and Full HD Video recording. Manual settings and operability inherited from EOS cameras impart a high-level shooting experience, and open the door to new creative possibilities. Substantive luxury defines the design: a neatly clarified sculpture with a firm grip, huge Vari-angle LCD and optical viewfinder.
Canon DIGIC 5 Image Processor
The latest-generation Canon DIGIC 5 Image Processor brings phenomenal increases in processing speed and power. Improved chip architecture and algorithms deliver greatly expanded functionality with further refinement in image quality. Improved noise reduction produces clearer images when shooting in low light at high ISO speeds. Enhanced i-Contrast performance adjusts differences between light and dark areas to achieve even more natural-looking results. The faster processing speed also results in faster continuous shooting capability. The DIGIC 5 Image Processor also makes possible a new, highly advanced automatic white balance system. Whereas conventional white balance makes an overall adjustment based on a single type of light source, the new Canon Multi-Area White Balance analyzes several areas of the image to determine whether different adjustments are needed, for example, for the main subject and the background.
Canon 1.5-inch, 14.3 Megapixel High-Sensitivity CMOS Sensor
Canon engineers developed a sensor for PowerShot G1 X digital camera that is nearly the size of an EOS DSLR camera's APS-C sized sensor, and built with a similar pixel structure - each pixel site is larger, allowing more light to be captured - giving the PowerShot G1 X a completely different level of image quality than compact cameras that have come before it. At 1.5 inches, the sensor is approximately 6.3 times larger than that of the PowerShot G12 digital camera. This heightened degree of sensitivity, along with 14.3 Megapixels, delivers several distinct advantages. Noise is dramatically reduced at high ISO speeds for clear low-light and nighttime shooting. Resolution at low ISO speeds is incredibly rich and precise. And, most atypically for a compact camera, the PowerShot G1 X digital camera allows you to create the intensely beautiful background blur that is the hallmark of DSLR cameras.
Canon HS SYSTEM
The Canon HS SYSTEM lets you take bright, clear photos in an even wider range of shooting situations. Beautiful low-light shots are possible with minimal noise and maximum detail in highlight and shadow areas. The system is the result of two technologies brought together in PowerShot cameras: a high-sensitivity imaging sensor, which is able to capture more light; and the DIGIC Image Processor, which actively reduces noise with high-speed image processing. The 14.3 Megapixel Canon CMOS sensor in the PowerShot G1 X incorporates advanced light reception technology that enhances sensitivity. The new DIGIC 5 Image Processor provides a major boost in noise reduction, expanding the usable range to an amazingly high ISO 12800. The HS SYSTEM thus lets you use higher shutter speeds to capture clearer images with reduced noise and blur.
Shooting and Recording Modes Including 14-bit RAW + JPEG
The PowerShot G1 X offers a host of shooting and recording modes ranging from fully automatic to fully manual.
For the ultimate in creative control, the PowerShot G1 X allows you to record in 14-bit RAW + JPEG. 14-bit signal processing, just as in EOS series cameras, gives images notably rich detail and smooth gradation. Compared with 12-bit processing, 14-bit offers a 4x increase in RAW data, makes a visible impact, giving images rich detail in both highlights and shadows as well as smoother, more natural tonal gradation for outstanding image quality. RAW images can be edited to a photographer's exact specifications with bundled software for increased creative control. In addition, RAW and JPEG can be record simultaneously.
Canon Full HD Video Advantage
In addition to the HS SYSTEM, the combination of the advanced CMOS sensor and DIGIC 5 Image Processor in the PowerShot G1 X digital camera makes it possible to shoot crisp, clear high definition video. Imagine the fun and excitement of being able to shoot spectacular 1080p Full HD video with stereo sound that you can later watch on your HDTV or download to your computer to share with family and friends. In addition to being able to shoot Full HD 1080p video at 24* frames per second, the PowerShot G1 X digital camera can also shoot 720p HD video at 30** frames per second.
Dedicated Movie Button, Wind filter feature and Optical Zoom for easy video capture
It's never been easier to shoot videos with a PowerShot digital camera. The PowerShot G1 X has a dedicated movie button that lets you start and stop recording instantly. There is no need to go through layers of menus or operate switches or dials to switch to and from video recording mode. The camera is always ready to shoot stills or video whenever you want. The PowerShot G1 X also incorporates an electronic wind filter, which suppresses wind noise that can muffle or distort the sound. And unlike less sophisticated point-and-shoot cameras, the PowerShot G1 X lets you use the full range of optical zoom when you're shooting a video.
HDTV Playback via HDMI with CEC Support
It's easy to enjoy and share the videos you shoot with the PowerShot G1 X. Simply connect its HDMI terminal to your HDTV using an HDMI cable. And because the PowerShot G1 X supports HDMI-CEC technology, you'll be able to control the playback of your images and videos on any CEC-enabled HDTV using the TV's remote control. (CEC - Consumer Electronic Control - is part of the HDMI specification, enabling components in a system to communicate with one another.)
With the PowerShot G1 X, you can also shoot video in the Apple iFrame format, which is a computer-friendly standard that speeds up importing and editing of videos. It keeps file sizes small, making it more convenient to upload or e-mail high-quality videos. The iFrame format enjoys native support in compatible Mac and Windows video applications, making it unnecessary to perform time-consuming and often quality-degrading conversions.
4x Wide-Angle Optical Zoom and 28mm Lens
The PowerShot G1 X digital camera is equipped with a newly designed 4x Wide-Angle Optical Zoom and 28mm lens (35mm equivalent: 28-112mm), built with the knowledge acquired over decades of Canon leadership in optical technology innovation. Canon engineers specifically designed this lens to take advantage of the PowerShot G1 X digital camera's exceptionally large sensor. Bright and fast, the f/2.8 lens captures a wealth of subtle detail, even indoors and in dark scenes, and easily covers a full range of shooting situations. It incorporates the latest in Canon UA lens technology, suppressing lens aberration for outstanding image quality throughout the entire zoom range. Images are richly expressive, from areas of highest resolution to beautifully artistic background blurs. The wide angle gives you more to work with in every shot, expanding your avenues for creative photography. Zooming is fast and precise, and 4x power takes you in for the close-up.
UA Lens Technology
Pioneered by Canon, UA Lens technology makes possible compact lenses with remarkable optical performance. By using molded glass with an ultra-high refractive index in aspherical lens elements, Canon has succeeded in reducing lens size while significantly reducing image aberrations. Another stellar example of cutting-edge Canon optics, UA Lens technology helps make PowerShot digital cameras pocket-friendly and capable of astounding image quality.
Optical Image Stabilizer
Handheld shooting can often lead to camera shake, making photos and videos blurry. Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer is a sophisticated system that shifts a lens group to correct unwanted camera movement. It makes handheld photography more practical in more shooting situations. For photos, it enables shooting at slower shutter speeds, accommodating more low-light shooting situations of up to 4 stops without having to boost ISO sensitivity. With camera shake reduced, you get a sharper, steadier image.
Intelligent IS
The latest advance in Canon Optical Image Stabilization technology, Intelligent IS analyzes camera movement and applies the best shake correction method for the shooting situation. For stills, the system automatically selects among Normal, Panning, Macro (Hybrid) and Tripod IS modes. When shooting video, the system automatically selects among Dynamic, Powered, Macro and Tripod IS modes. With Intelligent IS, you can concentrate on image capture, letting the camera make the most effective IS settings to assure the steadiest possible image.
Normal - Corrects for a wide range of camera movement when shooting stills.
Panning - Panning motion is detected so that IS does not interfere with desired camera movement.
Macro (Hybrid) - Corrects for shift-type camera shake, which typically occurs in macro (close-up) shooting.
Dynamic - Effective for video shooting at wide-angle focal lengths, eliminating the unwanted shaking that typically occurs while walking.
Powered - Compensates for hand movement when shooting video at the telephoto end of the zoom range, where camera shake is magnified.
Tripod - When tripod use is detected, the Image Stabilizer is stopped because it is not needed.
3.0-inch Vari-Angle PureColor System LCD
With the PowerShot G1 X digital camera, difficult shooting angles won't stop you from getting the shot you want. The camera's big 3.0-inch Vari-Angle LCD screen swivels out and rotates, tilting up and down to give you access to the highest and lowest angles for shooting flexibility that greatly enhances your creative expression. You can also capture perfectly centered self-portraits or put yourself into group shots. The LCD screen's benefits don't end with mobility. A resolution of 922,000 dots gives you an unprecedented level of detail in the images you're composing. The high resolution level also makes it easy to read on-screen information when you're adjusting camera settings and accessing shot information. Full-spectrum color is true and natural. As befits a high-performance camera designed for advanced users, the PowerShot G1 X digital camera is equipped with an optical viewfinder as well. Shoot SLR-style with the real image optical zoom finder, and customize the viewfinder for your vision with dioptric adjustment.
Electronic Level
The PowerShot G1 X even has a built-in electronic level that calculates the camera's horizontal angle of tilt and displays the information on the LCD monitor. The feature makes it easier to capture a perfectly level shot every time.
High-Speed Burst HQ
Utilizing the increased processing speed and power of the new Canon DIGIC 5 Image Processor, High-Speed Burst HQ makes it possible to capture fast action stills at full resolution during continuous shooting. The results are exceptionally high-quality images recorded in rapid sequence. In this mode, the PowerShot G1 X can capture a maximum of 6 shots in a single burst.
*The continuous shooting speed is approximately 4.5 fps

You can tell, sits and downs are not our favorite. In fact, we haven't practiced them since last week. We like active tricks instead! :D
Justine day at the Seminar.
4 days ago
This is the story of Roscoe and Spur and Bim. Roscoe was doomed to death for biting. I took in the little bastard! Spur came from the 2007 biggest puppy mill bust the state of Maine has ever seen. He's nice, too! Bim is our newest addition. My first ever bought dog. Came from a wonderful miniature american shepherd breeder in England!!!! This blog is about the life of my little dogs and me, Amy Carlson! A silly self-indulgent blog that might bring a smile to your face. :D

Reliever Taylor Buchholz, who has dealt with anxiety and depression issues throughout his career, plans to skip the 2012 season, agent David Pasti told ESPN New York.
Buchholz signed with Mets last offseason and went on the DL on June 2 with what was announced as shoulder fatigue. But a month later both Buchholz and the Mets jointly announced that he was dealing with the emotional issues. He would miss the rest of the 2011 season.
The Mets granted him free agency even though he was still under team control after the season. Pasti said that if he does decide to play baseball again, it would be with the Mets because of how they handled the situation. "The Mets really cared about him", the agent said.
Long-time Mets coach Ken Oberkfell, who was let go after spending 2011 as the team's bench coach, has signed with the Newark Bears. Oberkfell will join the team's coaching staff, the Can-Am team announced today.
Oberkfell spent a decade with the Mets organization, working his way up through several minor-league levels as a manager until he was named Terry Collins' bench coach last season.
Andy Martino of the Daily News spoke to two team insiders who told him that the club is looking for a veteran lefthanded bat for the bench, and have Rick Ankiel, Kosuke Fukudome, Raul Ibanez and Johnny Damon in thier sights.
But Martino also adds that Ibanez and Damon are less likely options because they might not be able to get the playing time they are looking for with the Mets.
MLB Network's Peter Gammons said via twitter that Ankiel would be a good match with the Mets.

1. Red sauce: I improvised my tomato sauce recipe over time from a simple recipe I found in the Best Recipe Classic book by Baking Illustrated. I personally love the taste, but I am not sure my method is kosher, so to speak. Namely, to get the right consistency, I use a fine sieve to get rid of some excess liquid. I have a suspicion that this is blasphemous. However, I find when I leave the sauce simmering, it never really gets to the right consistency. Is it wrong to take this shortcut? What are the consequences of straining liquid, rather than reducing it through simmering?2. Cheese: Personally, I don't like fresh mozzarella for pizza. I have tried using the expensive buffalo mozzarella from the Italian grocer and it just doesn't seem right for pizza. So instead, I use Silani 25% M.F. 52% humidity vacuum packed cheese. Does anyone know of a better cheese?
I have never tried your Silani brand cheese but, I do know that Grande is a favorite of the majority of the people on this forum. I noticed on one of your other posts that you are in California. I was there recently, and inquired at a Whole Foods about what brand of mozzarella they had. It did not have a label on it (other than whole milk mozzarella). I was surprised to find out that the store brand dry mozzarella there was Grande, since in my area they use an inferior brand. You might want to check this out. Also, I am not sure what brand the provolone was, maybe grande as well, but it was some of the best I have found. I grew up in the Pittsburgh/Ohio area where it is very popular to incorporate some provolone in with the mozzarella. I think some people would consider this blasphemous, but I really like it to help give the pizza a little extra flavor.
Actually, I'm in Toronto, so you must be thinking of another Jason. But you do raise an interesting point: I haven't yet looked into Whole Foods as a source of cheese. I live right next to a high class Italian grocer called Pusatari's, so I usually get my cheese from them. But maybe Whole Foods has something I haven't seen before. By the way, is it possible to get a vacuum packed (not fresh) mozzarella with greater than 25% M.F. / 52% Humid? Do you think it's a good thing for the vacuum packed cheese to be moist and soft, or should it be firm and dry like the stuff I get from the regular supermarket?
Jason, I have never noticed these numbers on cheese. I am assuming the 20% M.F. stands for moisture factor Huh??? I don't think we have those grading systems here in the U.S., but I could be wrong.
Jason I envy you living next to such a fine store,wish I had the money to shop there more often.In your phone book look up Grande cheese co,it is not the same as the states but they are a cheese producer with 5 factory outlets in T.O.(great products,try the fresh parm its out of this world,and about 20% mix of provolone)You can get all of your needs filled at this place,they even carry 00 flour but sadly not the pizza one,you can get that in woodbridge at Seacore(20000 sq ft of seafood and Italian grocery items,dont forget to pick up some of the flavoured olive oils for use on pizza,spices are in the oil,just put some on the stretched skin and spread it around,then tomato sauce).

Drive through chicken nuggets (10 PC) at about 10:00pm, shared among three children. Two children vomiting within 3 hours, the third within 6 hours. The third child sustained fever and diarrhea for the next two days. The other two had no additional symptoms but they vomited much earlier and much more violently which apparently rid their digestive systems of the germs more quickly. There is no question about what happened here.

This morning, about 6:30 a.m., I was doing a load of laundry, prior to getting ready for work, and realized I was out of fabric softener. I zipped over to a nearby grocery store, feeling totally fine, got what I needed and decided to hit Burger King because it is in the same complex. I purchased a Breakfast Burrito Jr., from the Burger King l I came home, ate it, continued doing laundry, hopped in the shower and was blow drying my hair, when very suddenly, I was hit with a wave of overwhelming nausea.

This is a pretty cool little tune. And it's long (over 4 minutes), giving you lots of room to work with.
"A Sailor's Anthem" was inspired by the old whaling ships from the 18th and 19th centuries. At least, that's what I had in mind when I wrote this song. With seven-part harmony, some of the sounds are really interesting, and I think you'll find this song usable in many different situations, such as film, commercials, websites, etc.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - After another historic season for Lipscomb Track & Field, the team has chosen it's award winners for 2014.
Team awards represent the traits and character most important to the program. Awards are voted on by each member of the team, along with the coaching staff.
"These awards are a fun way to recognize the best traits in our athletes," said Bill Taylor, director of men's and women's cross country and track and field. "They are team voted, which makes them especially special.
"The interesting thing is, as we have grown in size and risen in success, the number of people on the team getting votes has risen. In some categories we have 14 different people getting votes. In more categories than ever before we have had ties. This is a reflection on how many people are doing the right things. It's hard to narrow down an award when so many are showing those same positive traits.
"The award winners should be very proud this year, as they have risen to the top of an incredible team. The whole team should be proud, because the whole team shares these traits."
Most Improved:
Men: Alex Csorba - "Alex came in as a freshman this year, stepped into the multi-events and attacked them. He did well in the indoor heptathlon; however, he really excelled in the outdoor season, earning all-conference honors in the decathlon and the javelin."
Women: Molly Crawford and Kelsey Ibarra - "Molly really impressed everyone with her work ethic and attitude, and it paid off big as she just kept dropping time in the 400m. Kelsey knocked off some huge personal records in the 5000m, put up a nice first-ever time in the 3000m steeplechase and the 10,000m."
Fightin' Bison "Matt Deery":
Men: Juan Gonzalez - "Juan missed the entire indoor season with a leg injury after falling on a training run. It killed him to miss out. Unfortunately his injury just didn't improve. When he was told that it wouldn't do any damage to run on it, it would just hurt, Juan immediately decided to get running. Though he had a lot of pain early in the outdoor season, he pushed through it and ran with heart and guts. Amazingly, the injury started to get better and better as he ran more and harder. He finished the season with school records in the 3000m and 5000m, and an All-Atlantic Sun finish in the 5000m."
Women: Katie Collier - "Here is Katie for you. She's in the indoor pentathlon at the A-Sun Indoor Championships. First event, the 60m hurdles, she hits a hurdle and crashes to the ground. Her shoulder is separated. The X-Ray picture was crazy. She still wants to compete and is frustrated when we won't let her. Katie will do anything for the team. She will run through a wall. Pain and obstacles mean nothing to her. She is as tough as you get."
For the Team:
Men: Kenny Smith and Tate Honaker - "Kenny and Tate are both team captains. They are guys everyone knows will take care of the team. They will give their best for their teammates, be it cheering and support, or an ear to listen or anything."
Women: Maggie Lawrence and Tessa Hoefle - "Same as the men, Maggie and Tessa are both team captains, and are both willing to do anything and everything to help their teammates succeed, grow and have the best experience possible."
Heart of Gold:
Men: Gemikal Prude and Wayne Newman - "These two guys have a ton of respect from the team. Both are exceptional competitors, great humans and show their teammates they care.
Women: Abby Newby and April Terry - "Abby just has a great positive attitude all the time and really motivates her teammates. April is the person that has your back. I think the big thing is they are really genuine people and their teammates trust them."
Total Commitment:
Men: Tucker Peabody - "Tucker always has such huge goals and does everything in his power to accomplish them. It's how he has risen from a guy with decent high school times to one of the best sprinters in the entire nation. Every season he improved, physically and mentally. His work ethic will serve him well as he attempts to move to the post-collegiate pro ranks."
Women: Kaitlyn Llewellyn - "This was one of the two most lopsided awards. Kaitlyn shows her commitment to excellence in all she does. As an athlete she takes care of all the big and little things and lives the disciplined life that is required for your best. She also takes care of business academically, with a 4.0 GPA. She helps with team devotions. She shows commitment to herself, the team and the Lord in all she does."
Men: Tucker Peabody, Gemikal Prude and Colin Dempster - "This is our first ever three-way tie, and it makes sense. Each of these men has earned the title MVP. Tucker has been the first member of the men's team to get national recognition. He defended his 200m indoor title and helped the 4x400m relay win, ranked among the best in the nation at 200m in indoor and outdoor. Unfortunately a late season injury took away his dream of going to nationals, however he has helped our program rise nationally. Gemikal earned second team All-American honors in the indoor high jump, the first ever Lipscomb athlete to qualify for NCAA I Indoor Nationals. He became the first Lipscomb man to qualify for outdoor national finals. Those are huge accomplishments and bring a national presence to our team. Though Colin didn't win any individual A-Sun titles this year, he anchored the men's indoor A-Sun champion 4x400m relay. More importantly, when Tucker went down, Colin stepped up and into Tucker's events at conference, in addition to his own. He ran the 100m, 200m, 400m and both relays. He was the work horse for the team. And his efforts in the 400m secured him a qualifying time for the NCAA I National Championship prelims."
Women: Madi Talbert and Dani Walker - "Dani dominated the indoor A-Sun Championships for the second year in a row. She won the 800m, mile and 3000m, and ran a leg of the Distance Medley Relay that finished second. She was named the A-Sun Indoor Track Athlete of the Meet, for the second year in a row. In outdoor track she ran 4:21 in the 1500m and 16:30 in the 5000m. Her time of 4:21 in the 1500m qualified her for the NCAA I National Championship Preliminary round. Unfortunately she was not able to compete. Madi Talbert picked up a couple of second place finishes at the A-Sun Indoor Championships (3000m and DMR) and a third (5000m), but it was the end of the outdoor season when Madi stepped up big. At the A-Sun Outdoor Championships she defended her 3000m Steeplechase championship and won the 5000m. She then qualified for the NCAA I National Championship finals for the second year in a row, earning All-American honors with a 16th place national finish."
Freshman of the Year:
Men: Juan Gonzalez and Wayne Newman - "Juan set school records in the 3000m and 5000m during the outdoor track season. He also earned All-A-Sun honors with a second place finish in the 5000m. Wayne missed the outdoor season with an injury, but won the 60m Hurdles title at the A-Sun Indoor Championships. It's very difficult for a freshman to come in and win, especially a sprint or hurdle race.
Women: Sally Larson - "Sally was the other overwhelming vote winner, getting nearly all the votes in this category. Sally backed up a freshman of the year cross country season by earning All-A-Sun Indoor honors in the 5000m and Distance Medley Relay. In outdoor track she set a big personal record in the 5000m with a 16:55, and won the A-Sun 10,000m title as a freshman! I don't even let freshmen run the 10K very often. It's a difficult race for a young runner to handle mentally and physically. Sally had a terrific freshman year."

Marilyn Monroe 2006
Musical theatre production by Leo Cullborg Marilyn Monroe has become an icon. We see her on tea mugs, postcards, T-shirts and bags in shops, department stores and small boutiques. She has become synonymous with Hollywood, the American lifestyle and the 50s. We know that she was the biggest and most photographed female megastar of the 1900s. We know that she died young, perhaps committed suicide and had a relationship with President Kennedy. But who was the person behind the façade? What were her dreams? Why did both the Vatican and the Kremlin send letters of condolence when she died? With the help of what we know about her and a handful of her best and most well-known songs we tell the story of her life as it was; with glitter, champagne and flash-bulbs, but also with anxiety, pills and drawn-down blinds. Through the talents of musical artist, Mia Ringblom Hjertner, and musician Per Larsson the Göteborg Opera will take you on a two-hour journey of discovery to find the woman who was born poor but died an icon for the whole world: Norma Jean Baker – Marilyn Monroe.

Bryanna Clark Grogan's Vegan Feast Kitchen/ 21st Century Table: The kitchen journal of a vegan food writer.. I'm on Facebook and Twitter (see links in sidebar at right).
Thursday, June 2, 2011
I was craving this stew for a few days, but I had to put off making it until we went to Nanaimo (a city down-island) to purchase the primary ingredient-- dried yuba or Chinese bean curd sticks. I devised this recipe for one of my books some years ago, but it was not included because the editor thought that the main ingredient would be hard for most people to find. Perhaps she was right, but I think it's worth seeking out online, or when you're in a community with a large Asian population, because what most of us call "yuba" is a delicious, highly nutritious, natural soy product that can be stored for long periods of time. It's a hearty, satisfying protein food-- good for cold weather (which is what we have been having, unfortunately-- though that is supposed to change tomorrow!).
This is a package of dried bean curd skin sticks
Before I get to the recipe, here's a little primer: What IS "yuba"? Yuba or beancurd skin (tou-p'i, doufu-p'i or doufu-i) is considered a delicacy Japan, but is a much more common food in China and Taiwan, where each city will have a number of shops or market stalls selling only beancurd skin and products made from it. It is made by simmering soymilk and lifting off the "skin" that forms on the top, just like that on dairy milk. This "skin" can be used fresh, or is dried in sheets or rolled-up "sticks". The sticks are used in soups, stews, and stir-fries, and can also be grilled. The sheets, either fresh or dried and soaked, can be cut up like "noodles", or used in soups, stews, and stir-fries as well. They can be rolled around fillings and baked, steamed or fried for delicious appetizers, or used as a crispy "skin" around vegetarian poultry substitutes.
Dried sheets of yuba/bean curd skin
Fresh sheets of yuba/bean curd skin, thawed after being frozen
Now, that recipe... I remember at the time I developed this recipe that I wanted to make a French-style stew out of an Asian product. It's actually a very light, simple stew, but it's also complex in flavor and very satisfying. I think it tastes even better the day after making it.
I hope that you can find this product (there is a link in the ingredient list to an online vendor) and give this recipe a try.

THANK YOU for solving a mystery of many years for me!!! I've had yuba in restaurants and have seen it talked about in cookbooks, but I could never find it in any Asian grocery store. Now I know why -- I needed to use another name for it.
Thank you!!!

Oh - Thanks! I love browsing in Asian grocery stores - but I almost never know what to do with the ingredient so I don't buy. But now I can try out a new one! Thanks!

A couple of weeks ago I was watching a chef competition on the food network, chopped I think. The competing chefs had yuba in their basket. I knew what it was because it creates a nice skin on a seitan roast. Neither one of the competing chefs knew what it was... I did. :-) I am surprised by how little the culinary world knows about Bryaana's awesome flavored food and cooking techniques.

Hi, Dori! Nice to hear from you! how are you?
- Mon Jun 13, 04:06:00 PM PDT
Lovely recipe!
Just an observation, ... adding soy sauce or anything coated in soy sauce to a hot cast iron skillet will immediate scorch the soy sauce and it will burn and stick to the bottom very quickly. It can then barely even be scraped off with a metal scraper.
If I ever add soy sauce, I first brown the ingredient then add a small amount of water and THEN add the soy sauce, stir quickly and dump everything out of the pan within 5 seconds.

Any chance you can give me the NI for the dried sticks? Can't find it anywhere.
- Mon Apr 28, 09:24:00 AM PDT
- Bryanna Clark Grogan said...
Not sure what you mean by NI, but you can order them at the link in the recipe ingredient list or search in "Grocery & Gourmet Food" at amazon.com and you will get at least 6 brands of the yuba sticks.

On Tuesday, the Free Trade Agreement (FTA) between the United States and Colombia was officially implemented.
"Beginning today, U.S. agricultural exporters receive duty-free access on more than half of the products we currently export to Colombia, and virtually all remaining tariffs will be eliminated within 15 years," said Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack. "Estimates show that the tariff reductions in the U.S./Colombia Trade Promotion Agreement will expand total U.S. exports by more than $1.1 billion, supporting thousands of additional American jobs while increasing U.S. GDP by $2.5 billion. For agriculture, the agreement with South America's third-largest economy achieves two key trade objectives for the United States: it immediately provides vastly improved access to Colombia's market, and it levels the playing field with respect to third-country competitors.
"Last year, the United States exported $1.1 billion of agricultural products to Colombia. Under the agreement, American farmers and ranchers can expect to see their exports grow by more than $370 million, or more than one-third of the current total. Colombia will immediately eliminate duties on wheat, barley, soybeans, soybean meal and flour, high-quality beef, bacon, almost all fruit and vegetable products, wheat, peanuts, whey, cotton, and the vast majority of processed products. The Colombia TPA also provides duty free tariff rate quotas (TRQ) on standard beef, chicken leg quarters, dairy products, corn, sorghum, animal feeds, rice, and soybean oil. Over the next few years, as additional barriers fall and more U.S. businesses market products to Colombia's expanding economy, American agricultural exports will create new opportunities for our businesses, workers, farmers and ranchers, thereby supporting more and better jobs for Americans."
U.S. wheat interests were among commodity groups praising the implementation.
"This is a very good day for wheat farmers," said Randy Suess, a wheat farmer from Colfax, Wash., and chairman of U.S. Wheat Associates (USW). "The tariff situation has basically forced our largest customer, historically, in South America to buy more wheat from Canada and Argentina. Now our customers in Colombia will not have to pay the tariff, and we can compete equally on the basis of quality, supply and service."
Implementing this FTA is particularly important to U.S. wheat farmers, who rely on exports to market about half of their crops each year.
"A lot of people have joined us in working hard to get the U.S.-Colombia agreement approved by Congress, signed by (President Obama) and now implemented," said Erik Younggren, a wheat farmer from Hallock, Minn., and president of the National Association of Wheat Growers (NAWG). "While the process of removing our trade barriers with Colombia has been a long one, we are eager to get this market back on track."

USB Info and Benefits of Dual-Channel USB
The Power Mac G4 (AGP Graphics) and iMac (Slot-Loading) incorporate a separate 12-Mbps USB controller for each USB port. Now there is the potential to connect up to 127 devices to each port, as opposed to earlier USB-enabled Macintosh computers that support up to 127 devices connected to both USB ports.
What's New to USB?
Beginning with the Power Mac G4 (AGP Graphics) and the iMac (Slot-Loading), two new features to USB are most apparent: support for USB audio devices and booting from USB drives.
USB Audio Devices: This includes any device also that supports the Isochronous USB protocol (which are mostly Audio in nature). This includes USB speakers, microphones, and other recording/playback devices.
Bootable USB drives: A storage device such as a SuperDisk, Zip disk, or other USB storage drive can be used to hold a valid system folder and used at startup.
USB Specifications
- two Universal Serial Bus (USB) Type A ports
- a maximum of 500 Milliamps (mA) at 5 volts (V) is available per port, for a total of 1 ampere.
- data transfer rates:
- low-speed: 1.5 megabits per second (Mbps) maximum
- high-speed: 12 Mbps maximum

Congratulations, America! We've become a nation of healthier snackers.
So says market research firm NPD, which has declared fresh fruit the most popular snack food in the country. Even better, the popularity of fresh fruit is continuing to grow.
Over the course of a year, Americans snacked on fresh fruit an average of 10 times more than they snacked on chocolate and 25 times more than they snacked on potato chips, according to NPD's recent "Snacking in America" report. Fresh fruit, chocolate and potato chips were the top three snack foods identified in the report.
Snacks now account for 20% of all "eating occasions," the report says. (In case you were wondering, breakfast accounts for 28%, lunch for 25% and dinner for 27%, the market research firm says.)

I went to visit my Great-Aunt Ree the other day for her birthday (happy 83rd!), and left with a present of my own: family photos. She'd given me some before, mainly of her mother (my great-grandmother) and her siblings. After this last visit, I now have another 60, plus four large albums that she let me borrow.
The first thing I decided to do was to go ahead, take the leap, and get a FlipPal scanner. With these four albums, plus others from my mom's childhood that I still need to get scanned, I have more than enough work to get done. I ordered the scanner on Wednesday and my USPS tracking says I'll get it tomorrow. Fingers crossed!
After scanning all of the loose photos on my all-in-one, I decided that I wanted to organize these photos in a way that presented them better than inside an envelope inside a storage box. I also wanted to present the photos in a way that was somewhat more contemporary to their creation. There's not a single 4x6 photo in the bunch, so a modern album wouldn't work anyway. So I made this:
I filled the album with 25 pages of black card stock and am adhearing the photos using black photo corners. I'm then lableing the photos using a white Uni-ball Signo pen. I've loosely organized the photos chronologically by generation, with my Great-Great Grandparents first, followed by their children, then their children, etc. I'm still debating on whether or not to add some newspaper clippings and letters that I have as well.

Discussion in 'Android Apps & Games' started by lawnboy, Nov 10, 2010.
Interested in feedback on whether there is a better SMS program than Handcent?
Handcent usually takes the cake. What was the other one...chompSMS is pretty good, but I prefer Handcent.
chompSMS - Android app on AppBrain
Have been using SMS popup, found it pretty good and simple
Handcent is my personal choice. Chomp is good, but seemed generic in comparison.
Bovine, might I ask why you prefer Handcent? I'm currently using Chomp but the grass is always greener....
I tried Chomp briefly a couple of different times, but found Handcent to be much more customizable. For me, Handcent is the clear favorite.
Sorry for the thread jacking, but I have Handcent installed but somehow I get notifications on both Chomp and the default sms that comes with android. Is there any way to disable the default one's notifications?
I used Handcent for a long time, then when the X came out it started having problems. I switched to Chomp, I loved the options, I paid for it.
Then handcent updated, it now matches what I had with Chomp, but for free. With the most recent update to handcent Chomp no longer has any advantages and handcent is free with no big ad on your conversation list
I am back to handcent, even though I already paid to eliminate ads in Chomp
So far nothing else compares. If all you want is a pop up, handcent's pop up is nice and has lots of options
This question is sooo old. Go into the default app -> menu -> settings -> disable the notifications
Thanks.. I was looking at the Manage Applications menu and I totally forgot to check the default one.. duh.
I love chomp, but I hate how it defaults to a white screen while launching the app even tho I have a black theme applied.
I've only enjoy two texting apps since owning my HTC Incredible - the stock texting app and Handcent. Both are great apps and they do what I need/want in a texting app.
The double notifications, default sms and handcent, drove me away from handcent. The solution mentioned in the quote DID NOT WORK on my Evo. And I tried everything else in the area of settings. Has this problem been solved?
I shifted to chomp, paid, and have no problems. The UI of handcent was slightly more appealing to me and I would try it again if that very annoying double notification has been solved.
I know lots of people had the same problem, with disabling notifications not solving it. Anybody know if this is now fixed? It's hard to tell from the market comments.
But back to the thread question, I think both handcent (exc for dbl notf) and chomp are the best out there and have not found anything else to compare.
I agree! Stock SMS app plus SMS Popup is all you need!
Handcent, in my experience, is one of the most overrated apps. It may look pretty and have some cool options, but it is much slower than stock.
Chomp is pretty good and if it matures it will be great.
I just got my evo yesterday. My 1st phone with any kind of apps on it.
My wife and I both got one and I set up handcent on them both last night. I was able to set up mine to only give one notification. She was getting two still so went back to default, I will have to mess with hers later tonight to try to get it set up. It is possible though as I got it working on mine.
I don't know if I should replace my stock HTC message for Handcent?
It certainly looks attractive.
Grozny: Well that's an excellent experiment if you got 2 Evos at the same time, so I would assume they should be identical. Please let me know if you come up with a solution.
I wonder if it has to do with different soft or hardware builds. Since I tried everything, including uninstalling, reinstalling, etc, I believe it is in the programming of handcent and was hoping they'd fix it.
I'm subscribed to this thread, so I'll be looking forward to seeing what you find out. Many replies have said "this is so easy to fix, disable notifications", and I'm sure for them it has worked. But it does NOT work for all.
Curious why it would be assumed to be a problem with Handcent's programming, when it clearly doesn't happen to everyone? If it were programming, wouldn't it happen more consistently?
Can't answer that since I'm not a programmer, but it worked fine until one of the updates, and that's when the problem of double notifications started. And while you're right that it does not happen to everyone, it happens to many. That's a real frustration.
You guys say that the stock sms can also be pretty good? The only reason I went to handcent was cus my stock sms app started getting extremely slow and freezing up after not even a thousand messages in a thread. Now tjat I have like, over 3,000 in a thread, if were to ever try opening it up with the stock sms, my phone will freeze up so bad. I have an HTC legend. Anyone else have this problem?
Can't say I let my threads get that long...
I've been using handcent and love it. The pop ups work perfectly and the app has a lot of customization features. No slower than stock IME. Double notifications don't happen to me. Moto defy, 2.1.
I have that problem. I switched to chomp for the moment (though mainly because of the sms bug of 2.1-update1). Chomp is OK, but I'm hoping to switch back to stock after the 2.2 upgrade
Had to replace my Incredible phone for another one, so reinstalling all my apps. Reinstalled Handscent. Went to Messages app to menu -> settings -> disable the notification, but I am still getting dual notification.
Any suggestions?
I like go sms. has no one else tried it?
Thanks, but you might want to start a new thread on it; trying to troubleshoot at this point.

Ron Johnson, the man who helped Apple revolutionize retail with the Apple Stores, is leaving to take over the CEO spot at JC Penny. Apple has issued the following statement to All Things D:
"Ron is excited about this opportunity and we hope it goes well for him," a spokesperson said. "We've got a great retail team in place and are actively recruiting for his replacement."
And JC Penny states that Johnson isn't just taking over, he's taking on a large investment as well:
As a demonstration of his confidence in J. C. Penney's long-term potential, Mr. Johnson requested and has committed to make a personal investment of $50 million in the Company through the purchase, at fair market value, of 7 1/2-year warrants on 7.257 million shares ofJ. C. Penney Company stock. The warrants cannot be sold or hedged for the first six years of their term and have a strike price of $29.92, the closing price of the stock on the business day prior to Mr. Johnson's commitment to purchase the warrants.
Apple Retail's last big splash was the installation of iPads as information centers for all Apple products. Apple has probably institutionalized Apple Store procedures to the extent that Johnson's leaving won't have a huge impact, and it will be interesting to see if an influx of fresh blood -- and fresh ideas -- in the top retail spot can help take Apple further.
Anyone worried this means a lot of glass, wood, and aluminum are on their way to JC Penny outlets everywhere?

Handwriting Help
Handwriting Help specializes in teaching children ages 4 through 12 years how to learn and remediate their handwriting skills in the Northern Virginia / DC Metropolitan area. There are many underlying reasons why a child may not be able to hold a crayon, draw a shape, draw a person or write a paragraph in school. For example, children may have weak fine motor skills or poor letter formation that affect their legibility, their ability to communicate their ideas in school and affect their self esteem. I am a school occupational therapist and a national handwriting presenter knowledgeable about handwriting development, parent education, and teacher consultation. My goal is to teach a child the life long skill of handwriting.
Other private occupational therapists / handwriting tutors are advertising with personal websites such as:
1. http://www.listenrightshinebright.com - (Kimberly Wiggins, OT) - I like her Opening page & disclaimer & camp flyer info. Also want HWT Level 1 Certification logo. Love her calendar of her events.
2. http://www.handwriting-tutor.com Laura Kuhn, OT Love the amount of content, mission, photos and before/after hw samples. It seems real and genuine.
On a side note, the next 2 websites are ones that should be linnked to my website (I also work for these companies)
- http://www.hwtears.com - I am listed as a "handwriting specialist" and national workshop presenter ---Love the image of Children writing on CHALKBOARDS. I use all of these company's materials.
- http://www.writehererightnow.com - I am listed as a consultant (Overall elegant but boring website)
Colorful, splashy.........
1. Homepage: My info (bio, credentials), Private Handwriting Tutor and National Presenter for Handwriting Without Tears company, Possible professional picture, Contact information
2. Pricing/Payment information, List of services (student evaluations, handwriting sessions, presentations) with hopefully handwriting samples, positive parent/presentation attendees' comments & Photos of students engaged or involved (with parental permission. And/Or examples of poor writing to improve writing, as well as poor pencil grasps.
3. Parent Page for Home Ideas & Recommended Reading List, as well as a format to Direct parents to additional websites (or links) to purchase therapy recommendations. (Reference page)
4. BIGGEST GOAL: *If possible: Monthly calendar of my working schedule and my availability. I'd like parents and potentials customers to be able to view my schedule and contact me to schedule sessions, thus, reducing my # of emails and simplifying my workload. For example, I will have a handwriting camp in the middle of July. Parents can view my calendar. PLUS I'd like Pay Pal link if possible (not mandatory).
1. Website design should be visually bright & child-friendly looking (like a Kindergarten or First grade bulletin board) without a lot of visual clutter. Easy to maneuver between pages and Easy to contact me through email. 2. Communication with parents, parent education, and home carry-over of my sessions are essential for student success. I am serious about my work; the parents need to be committed with their child struggling with handwriting or fine motor skills. My sessions are fun and engaging and developmentally appropriate. 3. Website will be designed for parents seeking help for children ranging from 4 to 12 year olds with pre-writing, print, or cursive needs.
- Would love a PayPal link/payment system for parents to pay me after tutoring sessions.

Sense and Nonsense: Little boys and water can be a catastrophic mix
By Lynda Hollenbeck
Children are fascinated with water — especially little boys. At least that was true for the two I raised.
Their sister had no interest in H2O except as a beverage or something to swim in. But Big Brother and Little Brother were different stories altogether, and the little one's antics made him somewhat of a legend in his own time.
Paul, the senior member of the trio, coined a new word for water. I just don't know how to write it.
I can hear it these many years later, but communicating the sound through this method is challenging. It went something like "lal-lal-lal-wah." It was a rippling sound, something like water cascading over a big rock, but done in juvenile fashion.
It never occurred to me to try to write it until now.
My attention to water-related events for kids was stimulated during a recent setting in which a proud grandmother was showing a video of her daughter engaged in a water activity at the county fair. The child's giggles were contagious. I wasn't seeing the images, but hearing the infectious laughter was enough to make it amusing.
This led to a discussion of kids and water and I started remembering earlier incidents about my sons.
Allen even modified a popular song about water. This was Simon and Garfunkel's "Bridge Over Troubled Water." Only with his version, it became "Bwidge Ovuh Twubbled Wah-Wah."
His brother and sister ridiculed his rendition, but Ed and I thought it was charming.
"Did you hear him?" one kid would say.
"Oh, yeah," the other would respond. "He said 'wah-wah,'" followed by peals of laughter.
Typical sibling warfare.
I loved hearing Allen as a toddler folk singer, but my admiration did not extend to his attraction to the water hydrant located at the front of the house. It marked the spot at which the innocent child morphed into a demon, albeit still a charming one — almost.
The water fetish turned demonic when Allen discovered the heretofore well-disguised hydrant positioned low on the home's exterior.
He found great delight in turning it on and splashing himself and anyone else who might be around, soaking everyone thoroughly, shoes and all. If a hose happened to be attached, there were no holds barred.
It was necessary to intercede. I could not have made my position more clear. He "got it"; he just didn't like it, and he wasn't going to obey.
Truth be told, the hydrant was the equivalent of a magnet to him. He didn't seem to be able to leave it alone.
So his plan of attack became this: Turn the water on, get wet quickly and then run like the wind before your mom comes running.
I don't remember my form of discipline — I probably used several methods — but I know he understood, particularly when I threatened bodily harm if he didn't cease and desist.
He always promised "I won't do it again, Mother." He had huge, blue eyes that portrayed nothing but sincerity. (Ha!)
I would get involved in something inside the house when he'd give in to the inner voice that apparently told him to "turn it on and run!"
At this point brother or sister would come tattle and I'd take off after the defiant kid that was headed north. I'm surprised he didn't become a track star because his little legs could fly.
It happened over and over till finally Ed, the most patient of husbands and fathers, had had enough. This didn't occur often, but when it did, he was done with whatever had ruffled him.
He removed the handle from the hydrant and placed it on the sill of the tallest window. Allen would have needed a very tall ladder to reach it and there wasn't one around.
You could say Ed literally cut off the kid's water.
Anytime we had to use the hydrant for some purpose, we'd temporarily reattach the handle. But after the job was over, back it went on the window sill.
That was the perfect solution until one day when Ed reached for the handle and it was gone. We searched and we searched, but it was nowhere to be found.
It never materialized.
So Ed, just as an emergency measure, went to his toolbox and got some pliers to rig up for turning on the water that day.
We never replaced the handle because ... we never replaced the handle. That's the only explanation I have.
Eventually Ed more or less permanently attached the pliers to the hydrant, and there the pliers stayed.
That's been a lot of years ago. There are no mischievous little boys there to create havoc, but my outdoor hydrant still has no handle.
Truth be told, I kind of like it that way. The memories are sweet.
Lynda Hollenbeck is senior editor of the Saline Courier.

A "TROUBLED" man, who helped to create two award-winning gardens for the Chelsea Flower Show, died after taking a "significant amount" of heroin and alcohol.
Stephen Hatch, who devoted years of his life to gardening at the Elder Stubbs allotment in East Oxford, died almost instantly after injecting himself, an inquest heard.
Oxfordshire Coroner's Court heard that he suffered anxiety and panic attacks, and struggled to come to terms with his past.
But they said he gained great comfort from his gardening.
In 2009, Hackney-born Mr Hatch was part of a team from the Porch Steppin' Stone drop-in centre in East Oxford which helped create a garden for the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Chelsea Flower Show.
Along with 200 volunteers, either homeless or prisoners, they created the Key Garden and won a silver medal.
The following year they went back and won a silver medal for a second garden.
Steppin' Stone director Nigel Northcott, who knew Mr Hatch for 10 years, said for the second year at the show Mr Hatch had personally grown plants and went to check on them every day.
He said Mr Hatch was a "very troubled man", who had not achieved much in his life, but for whom gardening meant a great deal.
He told the inquest, on February 4: "There were things in Stephen's life he felt desperately unhappy about. He went through spells of being desperately despondent.
"His mother died when he was in custody and he never really got over it, I think.
"He grew up in care and had a lot of demons in his life he was exorcising, but give him a spade or a fork and I have never known a man dig so thoroughly."
Mr Northcott recalled one February when, after a day of gardening, Mr Hatch smashed the ice in a water butt to wash himself before going back to the centre.
He said: "Watching him dig parsnips out of soggy soil, it was like digging gold out of the ground – the delight on his face."
The centre director said no-one there knew he took Class A drugs.
He said: "This was a complete shock. One of our members still says: 'Now we'll open the gate and Stephen will be down here like always'."
Mr Hatch, 61, of Awgar Stone Road, Headington, died in the early hours of October 15 at the house of his friend, Stephen Thomas.
In a statement read to the inquest, Mr Thomas said he had tried to save his friend's life by giving him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation while he waited for an ambulance.
Assistant coroner Peter Clark ruled in a narrative verdict that Mr Hatch had consumed a "significant amount" of alcohol on the night he died, and therefore had died an "alcohol and drug-related death".
