With easy access to Hampden Avenue and University Boulevard, Buell Mansion lies opposite the fabulous Cherry Hills Country Club, just six miles from Downtown Denver. In addition to golf at Cherry Hills and nearby Glenmoor Country Club, equestrian and tennis programs are offered by the Village Club of Cherry Hills Village. Despite the area's rural ambiance - replete with quiet streets, country lanes, walking and riding trails, open space, and wildlife - upscale shopping, fine dining, and cultural activities abound in surrounding neighborhoods.
The Club at Buell Mansion offers tennis, swimming, billiards, croquet, and nature trails on the Buell Manor House grounds which also include a picturesque lake and park.
Designed by prominent Denver architects William and Arthur Fisher with landscaping by Saco DeBoer, architect of Denver's parkway system, the Georgian Revival Foster Buell Estate (Buell Manor House) was completed in 1920. Temple Buell, another renowned Denver architect, occupied the mansion for many years and maintained an active practice in the region until 1980.
Nearby, set in a grove of cottonwoods, the English Manor House once owned by noted clothier George Gano features Elizabethan, Jacobean, and Tudor highlights capped by multiple crossed gables and a steeply pitched roof.
Buell Mansion belongs to the nationally recognized Cherry Creek School District. Cherry Hills Village is also home to St. Mary's Academy and Kent Denver, highly regarded private schools.

By Katie Marks, Networx
Living in a shady spot can be a pain. You're tremendously limited in terms of what you can plant in the garden, as most plants prefer full sun or part shade at most, but you're rather not look at an array of ferns and moss, right? Fortunately, there are actually tons of shade-loving plants, with more cultivars coming out every year. That's good news for you and your garden -- and we're here to talk about 10 of the most fun, eye-catching, and unique shade-lovers of 2014.
Hellebore "Winter Thriller Irish Ruffles"
The name is a mouthful, and the plant is a stunner. Hellebores are a great choice for the shade garden, and this one is no exception. When it bursts into bloom in late winter, it produces electric green blooms demurely edged in red, like something out of a fantasy world. Talk about a welcome blast of color when the grim winter weather is getting you down. "Winter Thriller Irish Ruffles" withstands drought, deer, shade, and part-shade with equal aplomb, and it likes zones four through eight.
Heucherella "Gold Cascade"
Need to glam up your garden? This creeping plant has scalloped leaves in stunning golden-green with red centers, and it will gleefully spread if it's happy where it is -- which would be, of course, in shade and part-shade. Gardeners in zones four through nine can enjoy this beaut, along with its delicate flowers. It's also ideal for containers, where it can spill quite fetchingly over the sides as it grows.
Coralbells "Cinnamon Curls"
Imagine rich red foliage in low, dense clusters, with wavy edges and a saucy look. In the summer, slender stalks covered in white bell-shaped flowers emerge, nodding gently over the foliage. This cultivar is a real cutie, loves zones four through nine, and does fine in shade and partial shade.
Heuchera "Lime Ruffles"
It would appear that bright, bold, aggressive lime green is in for this year. The big showcase with "Lime Ruffles" is the foliage, which almost looks radioactive in shade or part shade. It also produces small white flowers in the fall. If you're growing in zones four through nine, consider this gorgeous plant for bedding and splashes of bold color.
Brunnera "Alexander's Great"
Huge silver and green leaves mound in an impressive pile, shooting out sky-blue flowers on long, elegant stalks in the spring. This plant loves rich soil that's consistently moist, making it a good choice for a more boggy area of the garden, and it's partially deer resistant, music to the ears of those of us who are constantly battling four-legged marauders. Whether in full or partial shade, this plant thrives in USDA zones four through eight.
Coralbells "Black Taffeta"
I am a sucker for black or almost-black plants. This plant has rich black ruffly foliage that stays dark even in the bright summer months, with stunning contrasting pink flowers. If you want a little bold color to stand out in the shade or part shade, this lovely coralbells cultivar thrives in zones four through nine. Try growing this lovely specimen alongside your Charlotte concrete garden walkway.
Heucherella "Buttered Rum"
Bronzed foliage with dark red veining makes this low shrub stand out from the pack, with small stalks filled with tiny white flowers. In the fall, those leaves will deepen up to a nice dark red, making this plant stand out even more, whether it's growing in full or partial shade. If you're in zones four through nine, "Buttered Rum" can be all yours!
Hosta "Curly Fries"
Who doesn't love curly fries!? You won't want to eat this plant, but it is pretty adorable, with its long, slender, twisting leaves. With lovely mounding foliage perfect for borders and containers, the blue flowers "Curly Fries" produces almost seem like icing on the cake. This hardy plant likes shade to part shade in zones three through nine.
Foamflower "Stephanie Cohen"
I love foamflowers, because they have the most delicate, lacy, frothy blooms, as the name implies. "Stephanie Cohen" has bright green leaves offset by stalks of pink foliage, and it enjoys both shade and part shade. It's also drought tolerant, and does well in containers and borders as well as on slopes. (Like, say, in a shady rock garden.) Gardeners in zones four through nine can enjoy this beauty.
Bleeding Heart "Amore Pink"
Another longtime favorite of mine, the bleeding heart is a stunner in shade gardens, with its long, sagging stalks of heart-shaped flowers that do indeed appear to be bleeding, or weeping, over something. With handsome blue-green foliage that mounds tightly and looks great in beds or borders, "Amore Pink" produces bold pink flowers that are great in bouquets and cut flower arrangements as well as on the plant. This plant is suitable for shade or part shade in zones five through nine.
Go out and get adventurous in your shade garden!

Greg Friedman never really believed human interaction on a personal level would be superceded by technology, and always said as much. He's now beginning to change his mind.
Friedman, president of both advisor CRM provider Junxure and investment firm Private Ocean, says that while baby boomers and certain Gen Xers want the human touch, not so for those who have been completely raised with a technology, as opposed to those being forced to adapt.
A new study from Northwestern Mutual appears to back Friedman's hypothesis, at least in part. The company's "Planning & Progress 2013—Technology and Society" study finds technology users across all generational cohorts are increasingly distracted by technology, and specifically the pitches they receive electronically. Yet "boomers and matures," in particular, are more likely to say the pace of society makes it harder to stick with long-term goals.
Additionally, more than a third of respondents over all say their electronic and mobile device usage has increased over the past year. Three in 10 are distracted by the immediacy of technology in society. Usage has increased the most for Gen Y men, those with children under 18 and those with the highest assets. More than 6 in 10 say they feel too busy to think about long-term goals.
The online survey of 1,546 Americans set out to evaluate the state of financial planning, and people's ability to stay on course over the long term to meet their goals. It also sought to assess how Americans are responding to the pace of society, as well as the current economic and political climate. Lastly, according to the company, it wished to "to understand whether or not Americans feel they are 'moving in the right direction' in areas such as debt, saving, spending, health and finances."

From old brands to new brands, not all car brands have survived the test of time. Take a look at some of the more memorable car brands that no longer exist.
DeLorean: The DeLorean Motor Company was around from 1975-1982. During its time it made only one – although very unique – model of car. The DeLorean had a futuristic look to it and featured gull-wing doors.
Maybach: In 2011, Daimler AG announced the Maybach would be discontinued. These luxury concept cars were once popular, but sales dwindled in recent years.
Mercury Cougar: The Mercury Cougar was a model produced by the Ford Motor Company from 1967 to 2002. It was offered in a hardtop and convertible, and its early models resembled the Ford Mustang.
Oldsmobile: The Oldsmobile brand, that was part of the General Motors family, was produced from 1897 until 2004. When it closed down its production, Oldsmobile was one of the oldest car brands in the world. Some of its top models included the Starfire, Toronado and the Aurora V8.
Pontiac Firebird: The Firebird was produced by Pontiac from 1967 to 2003. Its early models resembled the Camaro, and it was available in hardtop and convertible.

Why do I want to compile hugin?
If you want to fiddle with the hugin code, test new features or help squashing bugs, and do all that on Windows, this is the guide for you. Be warned that building hugin on Windows is not a piece of cake, so only try if you know the dark sides with all the development tools involved.
For normal testers it is better to use the binary snapshots we will offer during the preparation period for hugin 0.7. This guide is designed to be a help for people who have expressed interest in build Windows version of the current hugin code on a regular basis.
This guide will describe two ways of building the latest trunk. It does not apply to the hugin code prior to 2007/10/27.
Deciding on the toolchain
Currently, there are two methods for building hugin. Both are based on the CMake build system.
1. Compilation with Microsoft Visual Studio .NET. MSVC 2003 or later is required. The free express edition will probably also work, but is probably even harder to setup.
2. Compilation with MinGW32. This does not require the Microsoft compiler and even allows cross compilation of binaries for windows on a linux machine. Until now, only the cross compilation approach has been tried, but a building on a native system should also be possible.
For both approaches, the hardest task is the compilation of the libraries required by hugin. This mainly includes wxWidgets, boost, libpano13 and OpenEXR.
Building with Microsoft Visual Studio .Net 2003 (or later)
For simpler installation I have build everything against the older, multithreaded runtime libraries (\MT option).
Getting the dependencies
It is tempting to download precompiled libraries from the different projects, and use those. Be prepared that they might have been created with different compiler setting (Especially with a different runtime libraries). This can lead to hard to find and nasty problems and amount to days of depressing work (I speak from experience).
Downloading precompiled dependencies
Easy way, download the libraries I (Pablo d'Angelo) have used from http://hugin.panotools.org/sdk/MSVC/sdk_msvc2003.zip, They have been used for the creation of most hugin releases and should work reliably, even if they are not the latest versions. I have uses MSVC 2003 to create these, they might work with newer versions of MSVC, except the boost libraries. I'm sure at least boost will only work with the compiler it has been build with, and thus needs to be recompiled if you use MSVC 2005 or later.
If you are using Visual C++ 7.1 (Visual Studio 2003) or 8.0 (Visual Studio 2005), you can save a lot of time and aggravation by getting precompiled Boost libraries from BoostConsulting. You first download an installer program, which when run lets you choose which library variants you want to install. For Hugin you need the multithreaded static libraries, built for the static Microsoft C runtime with the compiler you intend to use. If you already have a Boost installation, you can just add these libraries to it, otherwise install the Boost headers too.
Windows Boost libraries are named according to version, compiler and MS runtime variant (multi|single thread, static|dll) so take care that the Hugin build uses the right names. Example:
prefix 'lib' shows this is a static link library, not the import library for a Boost dll; 'vc80' says built with VC8.0; 'mt-s' built for release version of the Microsoft multithread static C runtime LIBCMT (i.e. with compiler switch '/MT') (the debug version has 'mt-sgd'); '1_34_1' built from Boost version 1.34.1 source.
Build all required dependencies from scratch
Download the source packages. Newer versions might work, too.
1. Download wxWidgets from http://www.wxwidgets.org, I used 2.6.1, but later version should work, too
2. Download boost from http://www.boost.org, I used 1.33
3. Download OpenEXR source (IlmBase and OpenEXR) from http://www.openexr.com/
4. Download panorama tools source (pano13), from http://panotools.sf.net. Use version 2.9.12 or later. Latest SVN is even better.
5. Download and install gettext installer package from http://gnuwin32.sf.net
Unpack the source packages.
Building wxWidgets
1. Open libs/wxWidgets/src/tiff/tiffconf.h in your favorite editor, and add
#define ZIP_SUPPORT
near line 90 to support ZIP compressed tiff files. This might not be needed in newer version of wxWidgets.
2. build wxWidgets: start the MSVC command line shell (from the startmenu) and cd to the wxWidgets/build/msw. To build Unicode debug release libraries, execute the following commands:
cd wxWidgets*/build/msw nmake -f makefile.vc BUILD=debug UNICODE=1 SHARED=0 RUNTIME_LIBS=static nmake -f makefile.vc BUILD=release UNICODE=1 SHARED=0 RUNTIME_LIBS=static
It may be more reliable to build the wxWidgets libraries with the distributed MSVC projects, as described here. When I used the commandline method several libraries were built wrong, or not at all. -- TKSharpless
Building boost
Refer to the boost documentation for details, especially Build binaries from source. Download bjam exectable and place it in the boost directory. Open the MSVC Command line prompt located in Start Menu -> Programs Microsoft Visual Studio -> Utilities, change directory to the boost dir and issue
bjam stage
This will build all boost library, and take several hours. Hugin only needs the boost thread library, you can check which libraries are available with bjam --show-libraries and enable or disable libs with the --with-library-name or --without-library-name bjam command line options.
Building OpenEXR
This is a tricky one, because the MSVC project files have been set up for DLL builds with the \MD runtime, and a custom program is used to prepare the DLLs. For the all static windows binaries, quite some changes to the MSVC project files are needed.
Build according to README_win in ilmbase-1.0.0 but changed the runtime of all projects to MT.
For all projects do:
- set each project to static lib
- remove OPENEXR_DLL, _USEDLL and *_EXPORTS defines
- set runtime to MT
- disable SSE2, to generate binaries that run on all platforms
- remove the createDLL part of the post-build command, but keep the call to install*.cmd, such as ..\..\..\installIlmImf.cmd $(IntDir)
Apply the same procedure to the openexr-1.6 source code. Here only the IlmImf and IlmImfTest projects are needed by Hugin. Follow the same process as for IlmBase, but additionally add include path for the zlib library (inside the wxWidget/src/zlib) to the IlmImf project, and wxWidget/libs/_vc/wxzlib.lib to the IlmImfTest linker options. The tests should run without errors.
It is a good idea to create new target configurations, say HuginRelease and HuginDebug, with the Visual Studio Configuration Manager, and apply the above changes to them, so that you don't lose the original project settings. This also makes the Hugin-appropriate libraries easy to find as they will be built in directories named for the configurations. They should be installed in directories named that way, too; the install commands make those directories but fail to copy the static libraries because the dll library names are built into them. However it is easy enough to copy the libs from the build folders by hand. -- TKSharpless
Building Panotools
Building Pano13 with MSVC is described on a separate page.
Compiling Hugin
Use SVN to retrieve the latest hugin sourcecode, run CMakeSetup and use this procedure:
- Run cmake, select hugin source and build directories, tick the show advanced button. Do not choose the same directories for both source and build.
- Press 'Configure
- fill out red fields, select appropriate library and include paths, if required. The msgfmt program can be found in the gettext package installed earlier. zlib, jpeg, png and tiff libraries from the wxWidgets build can be reused. Their includes are in wxWidgets/src/(zlib|jpeg|png|tiff), and the libs are in wxWidgets/lib/vclib/wx*.lib
- Press Configure
- If more warnings and red lines appear, goto 3.
- Adjust some compiler settings in the CMAKE_C*_FLAGS entries.
- Change C and CXX runtime libraries from \MD to \MT.
- Reduce debug level from \Zl to \Zd (otherwise the debug files become bigger than MSVC can handle).
Once all fields have been filled out, the "Ok" button should be available. Press it and open the generated hugin.sln file with MSVC. Switch to Build Type to Release and start the build. After quite some time hugin should be build. In order to run hugin, it needs to be installed so that data files are in the right place. This is done by building the INSTALL project. The binaries and all required files will be installed to CMAKE_HUGIN_PREFIX. By default this is the "Program Files" folder of your windows machine.
Building using MinGW
I have managed to build the older, pre GSoC 2007 version with MinGW, but still having some problems with the new trunk. Once these are resolved, I will provide instructions

Steve Daines on Civil Rights
Opponent's Argument for voting No (The Week; Huffington Post, and The Atlantic): House Republicans had objected to provisions in the Senate bill that extended VAWA's protections to lesbians, gays, immigrants, and Native Americans. For example, Rep. Bill Johnson (R-OH) voted against the VAWA bill because it was a "politically–motivated, constitutionally-dubious Senate version bent on dividing women into categories by race, transgender politics and sexual preference." The objections can be grouped in two broadly ideological areas--that the law is an unnecessary overreach by the federal government, and that it represents a "feminist" attack on family values. The act's grants have encouraged states to implement "mandatory-arrest" policies, under which police responding to domestic-violence calls are required to make an arrest. These policies were intended to combat the too-common situation in which a victim is intimidated into recanting an abuse accusation. Critics also say VAWA has been subject to waste, fraud, and abuse because of insufficient oversight.
Congressional Summary:Congress finds the following:
Opponent's argument against bill: (David Brunori on Forbes.com): A bipartisan group of lawmakers thinks it's appropriate for the American taxpayer to subsidize organizations fighting for "traditional marriage." The Marriage and Religious Freedom Act would give non-profit organizations that don't like gay marriage the ability to engage in partisan political activities without the fear of losing their exempt status. The sponsors are touting the bill as a means of protecting freedom of conscience on the issue of marriage. The proposed law will allow non-profit organizations to engage in political activity, as long as it's for championing heterosexual marriage, while non-profits supporting marriage equality cannot engage in partisan political activity. The tax laws should be neutral when it comes to politics.
Congressional summary::Prohibits any interpretation of US administrative agencies, as applied with respect to individuals domiciled in a state of the United States:
Opponent's argument against (CNN.com Feb. 8 report on Attorney General Eric Holder's action which prompted this bill): In a major milestone for gay rights, the US government expanded recognition of same-sex marriages in federal legal matters, including bankruptcies, prison visits and survivor benefits. "It is the Justice Department's policy to recognize lawful same-sex marriages as broadly as possible, to ensure equal treatment for all members of society regardless of sexual orientation," Attorney General Eric Holder said. The federal expansion includes 34 states where same-sex marriage isn't legal. For example, a same-sex couple legally married in Massachusetts can now have a federal bankruptcy proceeding recognized in Alabama, even though it doesn't allow same-sex marriages.
Proponent's argument in favor (Washington Post Feb. 13 reporting on Sen. Ted Cruz): If passed, the bill would cede marriage definition to states for federal purposes, which would effectively reverse the gains same-sex couples made after the Defense of Marriage Act was overturned by the Supreme Court in June 2013. Cruz said, "I support traditional marriage. The federal government has tried to re-define marriage, and to undermine the constitutional authority of each state to define marriage consistent with the values of its citizens. The Obama Administration should not be trying to force gay marriage on all 50 states."

I miss apple-picking in New England. Overall the produce found in Southern California is superior to anywhere we have lived, but just like football, when it comes to apples, you simply can't beat New England. (Sorry Bolt fans.)
New England has scores of picturesque orchards with rolling hills and countless trees. There are few pleasures in life as satisfying as biting into a just picked Macoun apple while standing in the warm sun on a chilly fall New England day.
The first autumn that Jeff and I lived in North Carolina, we planned our annual apple-picking day. When we arrived ready to pick, we were aghast that our treasured McIntosh, Macouns, and Cortlands were nowhere to be found. Instead we had to make due with Red Romes, Galas, and Arkansas Blacks (a hard, tart apple which became my new favorite).
Just as we got used to our apples in the Southeast, we then moved to California and had to learn an entirely new set of apples. Though crunchy, sweet Fujis are probably the most popular apple here, my local favorite is the Pink Lady. Unlike her name, she's quite sassy, just right for an eating apple. Then there's the Winesap, which according to Riley's Farm of Oak Glen, CA, is the "Celebrity Rock Star of Apples." No wonder. It's deep crimson red, super firm and crispy, and assertively tart. Definitely not an apple for the timid.
When my mom's lovely friend Anne gave me an authentic Tuscan recipe for Torta di Mele (apple cake), she said it called for Golden Delicious apples. I was stunned. Of all of the apples I have eaten in my life (and I have eaten a few pecks), I have never eaten a Golden Delicious apple. This is probably because I always associated them with Red Delicious apples -- the tasteless, waxy school cafeteria apple -- the thought of which elicits painful middle school memories.
Since downtown San Diego isn't home to any apple orchards, I went to the supermarket and purchased eight Golden Delicious apples. Expecting them to be bland and mushy, I was pleasantly surprised when my first bite (which snapped with crispness) revealed a mild, juicy sweetness.
Golden Delicious apples don't seem pale to me anymore; they seem delicate. Their soft golden skin is dotted with tiny brown specks and a shy pink blush. They are ideal for eating and maintain their shape well when baked. It's official. I'm a Golden Delicious convert; after trying this Tuscan apple cake, you will be too.
Since the egg whites are whipped and folded into the batter, it makes a lighter cake, yet it's so chock full of juicy, sweet apples that when you slice it, it looks almost custardy on the inside. It's a lovely cake to have with an afternoon tea or even a glass of wine. It's slightly sweet, exceptionally moist, and whole-heartedly satisfying.
I am submitting this post to Andrew of Spittoon Extra, this month's host for the always scrumptious Sugar High Friday, created by The Domestic Goddess. This month's topic is drunken apples, or apples and alcohol. With Golden Delicious apples and Calvados, an apple brandy from Normandy, France, this dessert fits the bill, deliciously.

United States Department of Justice. Federal Bureau of Investigation
Version V1
The National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) is a
part of the Uniform Crime Reporting Program (UCR), administered by the
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). In the late 1970s, the law
enforcement community called for a thorough evaluative study of the
UCR with the objective of recommending an expanded and enhanced UCR
program to meet law enforcement needs into the 21st century. The FBI
fully concurred with the need for an updated program to meet
contemporary needs and provided its support, formulating a
comprehensive redesign effort. Following a multiyear study, a
"Blueprint for the Future of the Uniform Crime Reporting Program" was
developed. Using the "Blueprint" and in consultation with local and
state law enforcement executives, the FBI formulated new guidelines
for the Uniform Crime Reports. The National Incident-Based Reporting
System (NIBRS) is being implemented to meet these guidelines. NIBRS
data are archived at ICPSR as 13 separate data files, which may be
merged by using linkage variables. The data focus on a variety of
aspects of a crime incident. Part 4, Administrative Segment, offers
data on the incident itself (date and time). Each crime incident is
delineated by one administrative segment record. Also provided are
Part 5, Offense Segment (offense type, location, weapon use, and bias
motivation), Part 6, Property Segment (type of property loss, property
description, property value, drug type and quantity), Part 7, Victim
Segment (age, sex, race, ethnicity, and injuries), Part 8, Offender
Segment (age, sex, and race), and Part 9, Arrestee Segment (arrest
date, age, sex, race, and weapon use). The Batch Header Segment (Parts
1-3) separates and identifies individual police agencies by
Originating Agency Identifier (ORI). Batch Header information, which
is contained on three records for each ORI, includes agency name,
geographic location, and population of the area. Part 10, Group B
Arrest Report Segment, includes arrestee data for Group B
crimes. Window Segments files (Parts 11-13) pertain to incidents for
which the complete Group A Incident Report was not submitted to the
FBI. In general, a Window Segment record will be generated if the
incident occurred prior to January 1 of the previous year or if the
incident occurred prior to when the agency started NIBRS reporting. As
with UCR, participation in NIBRS is voluntary on the part of law
enforcement agencies. The data are not a representative sample of
crime in the United States. For 1991, four states, fully or partially
participating in NIBRS, were included in the dataset.

Hi there.
Summer's going by fast, isn't it?
There's a lot of stuff in the works over here.
What started out as a little project to catalog my recipes has turned into something I'm incredibly proud of.
That's about all that I can say right now. More later.
Blueberry oatmeal muffins
These muffins are based on the raspberry oatmeal muffins in The Hadassah Everyday Cookbook. I've been involved with Hadassah on and off for the past few years through their Young Hadassah International group, including traveling to Rome with them for a conference. I was even asked to contribute a few recipes to the cookbook – how cool is that?! This recipe made exactly a dozen muffins.
– 1/2 C (1 stick) unsalted butter
– 1/2 C brown sugar
– 1 egg
– 1/2 C milk (I used skim)
– 1 t vanilla
– 1 C flour
– 1 t baking powder
– 1/2 t baking soda
– 1/4 t salt
– 1 C instant/quick cook oats
– 1 C fresh blueberries
Prep. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line cupcake tray with cupcake liners.
Melt and Mix. Melt butter on stovetop or in microwave. Mix with brown sugar until fully combined (I used my mixer). Add egg, milk, and vanilla and mix until thoroughly combined.
Mix again. Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet in a few batches, mixing in between. Add oats and mix again. Add the blueberries now and mix very gently. If you want your muffins a bit neater, add the blueberries to the batter once it's been scooped into the tins and press them down into the batter.
Scoop and Bake. Scoop the batter equally into the 12 cupcake liners. I used a 1/4 C scooper which made this a cinch. Add a few extra blueberries if you'd like. Bake 18-20 minutes. You can try to use a toothpick to test whether the muffins are done, but mine just came out blue. If the muffins are dry on top and a little bit springy, they should be good. Cool on a rack.

Currently in my pantry, I have 10 pounds each of all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, white sugar, and brown sugar. I've got fresh containers of baking soda, baking powder, cocoa powder, powdered buttermilk, and three cans of sweetened condensed milk. I've got every chip imaginable: semi-sweet, dark, milk, white, and peanut butter. Well, that is, except for cinnamon chips. I'm seriously starting to doubt their existence. Five-pound bags of nuts from pecans to cashews share a shelf with raisins, dates, apricots, cranberries, and candied ginger. My two-tier lazy Susan is weighted down with bottles of every flavor extract I could get my hands on, including coconut and maple walnut. Then there's molasses, peanut butter, maple syrup, and POM, just in case.
Oh, and I can't forget the decorations: confectioner's sugar, festive Christmas sprinkles, and jimmies (chocolate sprinkles for you non-Rhode Islanders). I even picked up a box of Santa Claus printed paper cups for fudge and truffles. And a box of candy canes. Not for baking, but for eating on the way home, since I was suffering from hypoglycemia after all that shopping.
Did I mention that I have an overwhelming desire to bake cookies? Dozens, even hundreds?
That's how I know the holiday season is officially here. Today I'm happy to announce Eat Christmas Cookies, Season 3! That's right. It's time to bake and swap your favorite Christmas cookies with us.

Indicators on Android Development India You Should Know
With these problems mentioned, Android is last but not least at some extent wherever it is best to take into consideration it for the company. Android development is easier than iOS development, devices are much cheaper and Google is seriously addressing worries with the business which allow it to be a strong, viable possibility when considering a cell software development tool.
The opposite option You will need to make at this stage may be the 'Minimum SDK'. This can be the lowest version of Android you need to aid. Why not only enter the most up-to-date version of Android in listed here?
There are actually advantages and drawbacks to embarking on indigenous Android app development. Discover if creating natively in Home windows is correct to your company.
If you need Android applications to have the ability to update throughout the Android Application Update method, then you will need to publish your apps by using a certificate.
It is healthier to outsource the application development rather then getting a long lasting in-home setup. Also, working with an outsourcing group could make your mobile app development come to feel similar to a all-natural transit. At ITZ Total Solutions, we will let you select the proper app to your thought.
Developing a hybrid app suggests preserving just one code Whilst with native code you'll need an application developer for each platform. But this does not signify that indigenous applications are bad because they have their own individual positive aspects.
J2EE developers uncover it rather effortless Android Development India to migrate to Android development. A Web developer who performs with C# must also discover it rather effortless to migrate to Android.
Hybrid applications choose minimum length of time to produce and they are made at a fairly much less expensive value when compared with indigenous application.
ITZ Total Solutions is a 100% Mobile and Web Application Development Company, but comes to you with invaluable valued technology. At ITZ Total Solutions, quality is one of the biggest measurements when delivering the solutions for any Android App Development of our services.

A client has asked me to do a redesign of their website, an ASP.NET Webforms application that was developed by another consultant. It seemed like a relatively straightforward job, but after looking at the code, it's clear that's not the case.
This application was not written well. At all. It is extremely vulnerable to SQL injection attacks, business logic is spread throughout the entire application, there is a lot of duplication, and dead end code that does nothing. On top of that, it keeps throwing exceptions that are being smothered, so the site appears to run smoothly.
My job is to simply update the HTML and CSS, but much of the HTML is being generated in business logic and would be a nightmare to sort out. My estimate on the redesign is longer than the client was aiming for. They are asking why so long.
How can I explain to my client just how bad this code is? In their mind, the application is running great and the redesign should be a quick one-off. It's my word against the previous consultant. How can I give simple, concrete examples that a non-technical client will understand?
Related: "How can I explain SQL injection without using technical jargon?"
Walk-throughs will work
Karl Bielefeldt answers (116 votes):
Non-techies aren't idiots (for the most part). They can understand a technical argument if you keep it high-level enough. Pick a task you thought should be simple, and walk them through why it's not.
For example: "I expected this change to be one word in one file. The most likely place to change it seemed to be here but when I changed it there, it only worked in one place, and it broke these 7 other places. When I fixed one, it broke two more places, causing a domino effect, so a change I thought should have taken 10 minutes ended up taking 2 hours. That's just one example. There are a lot more unexpected 2 hour tasks in there."
Put the fear of god in them
Code structure, style, technical debt are things—at least initially, until the client trusts you—you're going to need to live with.
Security vulnerabilities are another matter.
Personally, I would do an estimate based on the work required using the existing structure and style while making it clear that there are significant issues with the codebase. I'd raise the security implications separately: do a demonstration of a hack on the database to drive the point home during a meeting.
I had great joy doing this with a previous client with a loyalty gift card system when I put £5000 on "my" card and then had him check the card on his till.
Philip comments:
+1 demo just how bad the SQL injection attack could be. Do it in front of them. If possible, video record their reactions.
Detail everything
Wonko the Sane answers (17 votes):
I would fully document everything that you feel should be redesigned and why (what happens if they don't make the change), and an estimate on fixing the issue. I would be particularly meticulous with anything you perceive as a security risk.
I would do this before touching any code, and make sure that your client has a copy of this report, preferably with some kind of timestamp. It may take some time, but it will also cover you if one of these security risks ever comes to fruition. Even better if you can get something signed that says they received the document.
Sure, you can point to source control of the original code you inherited if it ever does happen, but it will be much easier to point to this document and say, in a more professional manner, "See? I told you so."
This document can be the launching point for further discussions, and it may even be used by your client to get the "right people" to give them permission to make some or all of the changes.
That being said, once the client undestands the risks, grin and bear it if they say do the work anyway, or walk away.
Related: "How to explain refactoring to a non-technical person?"
Real-world examples
Remember that the client is coming to you for help maintaining their application. It is your job as a professional to point out any issues you find with this application. The client likely has no idea these issues exist and they should be made aware of them. Explain these issues in a manner that they can understand and let them decide how they want to proceed.
Use real world examples to illustrate these issues, such as a car breaking down or a washing machine needing repair. The point is to use examples they are already familiar with. For explaining SQL injection, I would simply demonstrate what that is and why it's an issue.
In the end you want to convey that you care about the success of the application you are being asked to work on.
Find the original post here. See more Q&A like this at Programmers, a site for conceptual programming questions at Stack Exchange. And of course, feel free to ask your own.

Aliasing Is Particularly Troublesome With Vector Elements
Last week, I gave an example of how aliasing could make code behave completely differently from what a first look would suggest. This example was well defined, in the sense that executing
*p /= x;
behaves in a way that the C++ language defines, even when
x was an alias for
I would like to continue this discussion with a particularly nasty case in which the result is not well defined:
- A programmer creates an alias (i.e., a reference or a pointer) to an object.
- The object gets deallocated.
- The program tries to use the alias.
Obviously, the effect of such a program is undefined. Less obviously, such a program will often appear to work. The reason is that although the object has been deallocated, its memory may still have the same contents that it had before the deallocation. As a result, when the program uses that deallocated memory, it will appear to see the same data that it would have expected had the memory not been allocated.
You may think that I have just described the dangling reference problem, and indeed dangling references are one example of this phenomenon. However, the problem can come up in another context. This context can be far nastier, both because it is not immediately obvious and because it does not happen every time the program is run.
The context is appending an element to a vector. Recall that a vector has a size, which is the number of elements it currently has, and a capacity, which is the number of elements that will fit in the memory currently allocated for the vector. If a program executes
to append a new element
e to a vector
v, this code will reallocate the vector if the vector's size before appending the element is equal to its capacity. So, for example, if
v is a nonempty vector, and we execute
auto& v_first = &v[0]; v.push_back(e);
then the call to
push_back might or might not invalidate
v_first, depending on whether
v's size is equal to its capacity before we executed this code.
This behavior of vectors implies that we must be very careful whenever we create a pointer, reference, or iterator that refers to a vector element, because such pointers, references, or iterators will become invalid whenever the vector is reallocated. Moreover, because appending an element to a vector might or might not reallocate that vector, it is hard for testing to reveal errors that might come from invalidating pointers, references, or iterators.
This behavior of vectors has some serious design implications for programs that use vectors, as well as for the design of the vector library itself. We shall look at some of those implications next week.

In August 1997, and Jeff and I were at the Raleigh Farmers' Market in North Carolina. A farmer was selling a wide variety of chilies, including habaneros. I was instantly drawn to their shiny, reddish-orange skin and almost heart-like shape.
"What do habaneros taste like? I asked.
"They got kick in 'em," he said, as he chewed on a toothpick.
"Can they be eaten raw, or should I cook them?" I asked.
"You can eat 'em any way you like," he said, now twirling the toothpick between his thumb and forefinger.
"How 'bout the seeds? Should I take them out first?" I asked.
"If you want to," he said.
Realizing I was just going to have to find out for myself, I quickly selected four or five brilliant habaneros, paid for them, and proudly announced to Jeff that I would make burritos with habanero salsa for dinner.
As I was preparing the salsa, Jeff sampled a tiny piece of the habanero; he coughed a couple of times and declared it "pretty hot." I decided to forgo the taste test and chopped up two habaneros, seeds and all.
We sat down to eat dinner, and I added a spoonful of my brilliant orange habanero salsa to my burrito. After the first bite, I felt a burning sensation on my lips, then my tongue started to prick with heat. Within seconds, actual flames of fire were leaping through the roof of my mouth into my nose. I tried to yelp but only gurgling sounds came out.
Jeff, realizing I was in trouble, handed me a glass of water. (This was before medical school; what did he know?) I waited for relief. Instead, like throwing water on hot oil, the fire in my mouth roared.
After a couple minutes of coughing and chest pounding, I said to Jeff, "My lipth feelths funny." I went into the bathroom and sure enough, my upper lip was swollen to twice its size. I'd always wanted fuller lips but this was ridiculous.
I've learned a few things about chilies since that memorable day. Turns out a chili's "heat" comes from a compound called capsaicin and can be measured on the Scoville Scale. Created by a chemist named Wilbur Scoville, this scale accurately measures the level of capsaicin in a chili. Scoville heat units (SHU) indicate the amount of capsaicin in a chili. For instance,
- a red bell pepper registers a zero (you feel nothing)
- a jalapeno = 2,500-8,000 (you feel a mild tingling sensation in your mouth)
- a serrano = 10,000-25,000 (your lips and belly get warm and prick with heat)
- a habanero = 100,000-350,000 (pain, not enjoyment, pain)
Despite my initial adverse reaction, I still eat habaneros but without the seeds. And if my mouth starts to burn, I don't drink water. I eat bread or a banana; I've read that creamy foods like yogurt are supposed to work too.
So please try these quesadillas with a fruity habanero salsa. The sweet pineapple, mango, and kiwi contrast pleasingly with the spicy green onions and fiery habanero. Plus the acidic lime juice helps to temper the chili's heat. It's a quick mid-week meal or easy party dish. Feel free to play around with the ingredients to your liking; after all, quesadillas are meant to be fun.
When you make them, just be sure to have some bread, bananas, and yogurt nearby, just in case.
Goat Cheese and Poblano Quesadillas with Pineapple-Mango-Habanero Salsa
Make 4 quesadillas
Print recipe only here.
1 cup diced fresh pineapple
1 cup diced fresh mango
1 diced kiwi
1 habanero, minced, and seeds removed (unless you're a glutton for punishment)
2 green onions, thinly sliced
the juice of 1 lime
1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro
salt, to taste
1 large or 2 small poblano peppers, de-seeded and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon canola oil
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon sugar
salt, to taste
8 (6-7- inch flour tortillas)
4 ounces goat cheese
To prepare the salsa, place all ingredients in a medium bowl and gently toss. Allow to rest for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours) for the flavors to mingle.
Place poblano pepper over an open gas flame, turning occasionally, until thoroughly charred and blistered on all sides. Wrap tightly in aluminum foil and let rest for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove, and using some paper towel, gently scrape off the skin. Halve, stem and seed the pepper. Cut into strips, then dice, and place in a bowl. Set aside.
Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add canola oil and red onion, and saute for 3-5 minutes. Add sugar, reduce heat to low, and continue to cook until onions are caramelized, about 7-10 minutes. Add cooked poblano peppers to the skillet, season with salt, and toss to combine. Remove from heat.
Place 1 tortilla on a clean cutting board; spread with 1 ounce of goat cheese, then 1/4 of the poblano mixture. Top with another tortilla, and press lightly with your hand. Continue with remaining tortillas and filling until you complete 4 quesadillas.
Heat a large, nonstick, dry skillet over medium heat. Add 1 quesadilla. Cook until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking sheet and place in a warm oven (200-300 degrees F) until ready to serve. (Or eat 'em as you make 'em.) Repeat with remaining 3 quesadillas.
Cut each quesadilla into 3 or 4 wedges. Serve with salsa.You might also like:

There are people out there who don't want you to enjoy eating. You know who they are -- the carb-averse, all fat-fearing folks consumed with diets and detox. Maria Speck, author of the beautiful new cookbook, Ancient Grains for Modern Meals, is not of them.
In her introduction, Speck, in her refreshingly direct tone says, "Almost every conversation about my passion for whole grains evoked this well-meaning remark: 'Your diet must be very healthy.' This comment always leaves me speechless, because health is the last thing on my mind when I eat."
What is on her mind is cooking with unprocessed, real foods -- fruits, vegetables, meats, and whole grains -- that are full of flavor and which happen to be healthy. Speck began eating whole grains while growing up in Greece and Germany. As a kid, she noshed on oats, wheat berries, and bulgur and as an adult has committed herself to exploring their delicious potential.
In the first section of Ancient Grains for Modern Meals, Speck describes a wide variety of whole grains from prosaic grits and rice to more exotic kamut and farro. She tells you how to buy, store, and cook with whole grains, and even provides a helpful table with measurements and cooking times.
Chapters are divided into standard meal types with a special chapter called "Modern Mains," in which Speck encourages you to "explore these ancient grains in your twenty-first-century kitchen." Recipes include Spelt Crust Pizza with Fennel, Prosciutto, and Apples and Saffron Risotto with White-Wine Clams and Peas. I am especially impressed with the "Breakfast, Brunch, and Breads" chapter which includes innovative and even sexy recipes. Consider these: Dark Chocolate Muesli with Hazelnuts, Apricot-Lemon Bars with Cherries, and Fig Muffins with Creamy Goat Cheese Filling.
Recipes are clearly written and include tips such as how to "get a head start" or how "to vary it." Interspersed throughout the book are engaging stories from Speck's worldly travels as well as call-outs boxes with cooking tips and food history. Sara Remington's photography is luscious. My only disappointment is that there weren't more photos.
So if you're looking to incorporate more whole grains into your diet (and feel and look better too), then make room on your bookshelf for Ancient Grains for Modern Meals.
I have made Speck's recipe for Quinoa Cakes with Smoked Trout and Lime Mayonnaise twice already. A third will no doubt be soon to follow. These are like a healthier, trendier alternative to clam cakes. The savory smoked trout is enhanced with aromatic fresh cilantro and nutty quinoa, and the lime mayonnaise is delightfully zippy. I will note that I had to add 1 more egg to the batch in order for the cakes to adhere. If that happens to you, just be patient. They're worth it.

A 4-H member in western La Plata County dreams of one day being an Olympic athlete. Cole Crawford of the Mountain Shadows 4-H club is working on that dream through his dedicated participation in the 4-H shooting sports program.
His hard work is paying off. Cole just learned he will be representing the Colorado State 4-H Shooting Sports Team at the national 4-H competition next year.
The 4-H shooting sports program can be very much like any other sport kids might participate in. It takes strength and endurance, both physically and emotionally. A great shooter must be healthy in mind and body and willing to commit to constant training. Training ranges from weightlifting and healthy eating, to target practice and to learning to use multiple pieces of equipment. 4-H shooting sports members are truly athletes, and great athletes are always training.
The goals and objectives of the 4-H shooting sports program are consistent with the overall 4-H program. However, because of the nature of the program, an extra emphasis on safety cannot be mentioned enough. All of our volunteers and coaches who want to participate in the project must complete a 4-H specific instructors training and stay active annually to keep their status. The intensive training focuses on safety and how to promote positive youth development by being strong role models.
Here are a few of the main objectives from the National 4-H Shooting Sports Program:
To enhance development of self-concept, character and personal growth through safe, educational and socially acceptable involvement in a shooting activity.
To teach safe and responsible use of firearms and archery equipment, including sound decision-making, self-discipline and concentration.
To promote the highest standards of safety, sportsmanship and ethical behavior.
To strengthen families through participation in life-long recreational activities.
Cole and his family are meeting these objectives. Coles parents, Penny and Bruce Crawford, are certified instructors and have been active in organizing local and state events with other 4-H families. The program has helped their community by establishing strong youth-adult partnerships where young people and adults are enabled to be productive members of society.
Cole, when asked what he has learned from the program, said, I have learned responsibility, good sportsmanship, confidence, respect, adaptability, commitment and the importance of living healthy and making good choices. Furthermore, when asked if he considers using drugs, alcohol or tobacco at his age, his answer is very strongly, Shooting sports is my career. I dont want any of that messing it up.
The national 4-H event will be held in Grand Island, Neb., in June. The event will include more than 800 4-H members from all over the country. The kids compete in three different events in their discipline, placing as individuals and teams. Shooters must also be prepared for a mix of weather conditions as the entire competition is held outdoors.
Cole will be doing some fundraising activities before the event to offset the traveling costs. If you would like to donate to Coles opportunity, please contact me at the Extension office.
firstname.lastname@example.com or 382-6463. Greg Felsen is La Plata County 4-H youth development agent.

Alright. Let's do this you guys, let me take you all on a love adventure.
First and foremost, I personally liked this one. It gave me a little chuckle. I know many of you disagree, but I don't care because Person #1 is taking over this blog and there is nothing you can do about it!
That being said, there are flaws in this comic and I will point them out! First of all, as Sam F points out correctly, the sentence is structured slightly awkwardly. "Remember: with great power comes great resistance times current squared" would not only read much better (I stumbled over the current squared at first, and am apparently not the only one), but the "res" in resistance also further alludes to the word "responsibility", as in "with great power comes great responsibility". This is simple enough to fix and just further demonstrates how Randall would benefit from an editor.
I also find it appalling that Randall, with a complete lack of any evidence whatsoever would accuse Ohm of plagiarism. In fact, my research has revealed that Ohm never had an uncle, much less one that he witnessed die. Check your facts, Randall. Children read this comic.
But seriously, there is not all that much to say about this comic, it's a small little pun. I liked it, I can understand why you wouldn't. A variation I have seen before is "DragonForce = DragonMass * DragonAcceleration", so I guess this one also has been done before, sort of. Though it's not quite the same.
In good p#1 tradition, let us look at some of the eloquent grokings on the fora;
...well this is odd... people seem not to be taken by storm of the genius that is everything embodying Randall Munroe. Well, there is one post:
My side hertz from the burnt cheese. (note that this is in response to a link somebody posted, not the comic)
I honestly have nothing to add to this one. It's perfect in every imaginable way.
Okay. Let's talk about the alt text now:
"More generally, with great power comes great dEnergy/dt"
Well, that's the same pun with a different execution.
And with that, I leave you. For now.

The U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has given 3 million dollars to Texas-based software provider Continuum Analytics with a view to helping fund the improvement of the Python language's data processing and visualization power for big data tasks.

ReportsMore >>
WebcastsMore >>
DARPA intends for this donation to fund investigation into new methods for data analysis and explore the possibility of new techniques for visually portraying multi-dimensional large data sets.
This investment will extend the work already underway with the the NumPy and SciPy Python libraries. NumPy is the package for scientific computing with Python containing an N-dimensional array object and tools for integrating C/C++ and Fortran code. SciPy (pronounced "Sigh Pie") is an instance of open-source software for mathematics.
Continuum Analytics president Peter Wang reminds us that Python is an easy language to learn for non-programmers and says that this is important, because most big data analysis will probably not be carried out by programmers. "If they can learn an easy language, they won't have to rely on an external software development group to complete their analysis."
This whole project is part of DARPA's XData research program, a multi-million dollar initiative designed to provide the U.S. Defense Department (and other government agencies) with new tools to work with and manage what amounts to huge quantities of "sensor data" and other forms of big data.
"With big data systems, you find new things you want to look at every week. You can't wait for that process any more," said Wang.
Continuum Analytics has traditionally focused on large-scale distributed computing, array-oriented programming frameworks, scientific computing, and algorithm development, plus graphics and interactive data visualization. The firm will now work to produce add-on products and services so that developers can more easily use Python for big data analytics.

The time is here. Ever since January hunters have anticipated this day. Whether it followed a successful season in which the freezer was filled and the rewards of the chess game against the buck of a lifetime are now hanging from the wall or if the season ended in disappointment as the prey out gamed the predator and all that was gained was a few glimpses and encounters that ended with the buck walking away, the feelings are the same.
The spring and summer were spent planting food plots and preparing stand locations. Trail cameras were hung and moved and checked to find out who made it and who did not. Occasionally one is recognized from the year before. There is a sense of almost fatherly pride as the small fork horn from last season is now endowed with the body of a Kentucky Derby racehorse with a main frame eight in velvet towering above. Yes, there it is, a small kicker off the right G2 to make it that much more unique.
Your sweat, blood and tears (usually the tears are a result of the blood) have been poured into all the preparation needed to invite these habitual trespassers onto the land.
When not in the field, equipment was cleaned and tended. Countless hours of practice were spent in order to perfect the killing shot. Visualization of the deer's approach and the location of the vitals were used to make the shot and calm the nerves. The sights were adjusted, and adjusted, and adjusted. Perfection became calling. Nothing else mattered.
And here it is. All of this time, all of this preparation for just the opportunity to make the shot. Perhaps the camera's results showed the deer coming to the food plot at 4:00 am. That is fine. You are a hunter. You will get there early and wait. There is nothing wrong with a short nap from 20 feet in a tree. The sun's cresting of the treetops makes a scenic alarm clock. The cool morning air soothes the lungs that have endured months of hard work, humid hot summer air. Your body not only welcomes the change from being indoors, it encompasses the outdoors.
As you wake you hear the crunching of corn kernels. A slight musk mixed with the scent of wet vegetation reminds you that you are in Heaven. You are conscious of your movements. Just as a chameleon blends in with its environment and only moves it eyes, you do the same. One wrong move will mean the end to these months of preparation. All the correct moves will mean months of true organic food.
You observe the way the prey are protecting themselves. One eats, one looks. They alternate. Every few seconds or so you spot the ears turning away from you toward the field. The one eating lifts his head and scans around. They do not realize you are there.
Your breath begins to quicken as you prepare to make your move. The left hand slowly edges toward the weapon. "Got to control myself," you think. You breathe in deeply through your nose. You exhale slowly and quietly through pierced but open lips. Much better.
Your hand grips the handle. White knuckles. No, relax. Your right hand slowly draws back. You don't even notice the 70 pounds at this point. It is purely off instinct and muscle memory. The grip hand is no longer holding, it is just there to keep the bow in place. The sight pin is focused through the small peep hole in the string. It settles just behind the shoulder of the deer.
This is your story. Get out there and finish it.

Limoncello is not difficult to make, but you have to plan ahead; the lemon and orange rinds need to soak for 48 hours. Give yourself 3 days -- 2 for soaking and 1 for the processing and freezing. The actual hands-on time is short, so don't be scared. Plus once you taste that tantalizing sweet-tart lemon, you won't care how long it takes to make. It's like Del's lemonade for adults (that's for my RI readers).
Here's how to make limoncello:
- Gather all of your ingredients: pure alcohol, milk, whiskey, vanilla, sugar, lemons, and oranges.
- Soak lemon and orange peels in a bowl filled with pure alcohol, and cover with a plate for 48 hours.
- Strain alcohol, and discard peels.
- In a very large pan, mix milk, sugar, whiskey, and vanilla. Bring to a boil.
- Lower the heat. The liquid should bubble as shown above. Keep stirring, and don't take your eyes off of it. If left unattended, it will overflow. Trust me. Then it will take you hours to remove the impossibly sticky lemon mixture off of your stove top. You'll curse me forever, and I couldn't live with the guilt.
- Once cooled, you will see a thin film form on the top of the liquid.
- Pour the limoncello through a sieve. Pour into bottles and freeze.
- Sit back, put your feet up, and enjoy a glass of refreshing chilled, creamy, limoncello. You deserve it.
Creamy Limoncello
Print recipe only here.
Update: July 9, 2010: Lately my dad has been soaking the lemon and orange rinds for 1 week, which imparts a more pronounced lemon flavor. The 48 hour soak is still delicious, but it's another option.
1 liter (33.8 oz) pure alcohol – 1 liter = 4.25 cups
8 lemon peels
2 orange peels
2 liters whole milk (67.6 oz) or 8 ¾ cups
5 lbs sugar – 10 cups
1 shot glass whiskey
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1. In a large bowl place lemon and orange peels. Pour pure alcohol over the peels. Soak for 48 hours on the counter top. Note: It's helpful to place a plate on top of the peels so they don't float to the top.
2. Strain lemon and orange alcohol; discard peels. Pour alcohol in a heavy bottomed large saucepan and add milk, sugar, whiskey, and vanilla. Bring to a boil, then reduce until just bubbling, for 5 minutes. Stir continuously, and keep a close eye on it so it does not boil over. Remove from heat and let cool completely. A thin film will form on the top of the limoncello. Using a large spoon, skim it and discard. Then pour limoncello through a fine mesh sieve.
3. Pour into bottles and freeze. Note: We use plastic containers, which are safer to handle than glass. Keep in freezer at all times. Shake before using.
