A good few months ago I spotted these cute Skinfood fragrance sticks, which are also supposed to be 'therapy' scents. I have a lot of love for solid perfumes because I find the scent softer than using a spray, and it's also very easy to carry around.
I purchased 3 of these scents, Green Tea which is calming for stressful days, Happy Vanilla which is calming and Steam Milk which has lavender in it gives you a good nights sleep. I love the packaging which is this really sweet box:
I didn't want to throw the boxes away!
The stick perfume comes in a fairly dinky tube but it's still bigger than a lot of solid perfumes where you only get a small pot.
It looks more like a chubby lip balm!
The texture of these is slightly waxy, it comes off on the skin nicely, and leaves quite a decent scent that lasts around 4 hours on me.
The scents are quite basic, in the sense that they smell of the one thing they're supposed to smell of (ie. Green Tea) and that's it; there's no notes, no layers or anything like that. I still think they can be worn as really clean scents although I have been using them for lifting my mood etc.
Here is how they look:
Overall, these Foodtherapy perfume sticks are pretty decent buys. I only paid about £6 each for these, and they smell very nice even if they are quite simple scents.

text: The first concentration camps in Germany were established soon after Adolf Hitler's appointment as chancellor in January 1933. The Storm Troopers (SA) and the police established concentration camps beginning in February 1933. These camps were set up to handle the masses of people arrested as alleged political opponents. They were established on the local level throughout Germany. Gradually, most of these early camps were disbanded and replaced by centrally organized concentration camps under the exclusive jurisdiction of the SS (Schutzstaffel; the elite guard of the Nazi state). Dachau was the only concentration camp opened in 1933 that remained in operation until 1945, and was the model for the Nazi concentration camp system that replaced the earlier camps.

Thanks ansd does anyone has an idea that want to share or some recommendations
I have been planning more about this and I have an idea and y'all tell me if sound good.
So there are 2 materials which ar the most important thing, gold and mana.
Gold is obtained in gold mines and mana on a kind of plataform with a blue floating ball( it's an idea)
Units cost mana, defensive structures and most buildings use gold ( others use mana like healing tower for example)
Upgrade troops cost mana but I don't know if I should make more materials like wood o iron
Because I feel like it sounds too regular or like not something so innovative or something like that.
You could give ideas or opinion about this.
* I don't feel to comfortable sharing my ideas because I feel that I could be helping someone on something using credit of my ideas, i don't trust a 100% these forum*

If your question is that if the game is inspired by stick empires then yes.
Hey people sorry for not being active like in 3 months but I don't know if I should be posting my ideas here.
Why? Because i feel like someone it's going to use my ideas or something like that. The good thing is that I am learning programation and If you have an idea or programation recommendation, write on the comments
Yes. I'm not to active but most of times I'm chatting in the games and general sections

We just published the results of the Panoramio Contest of August 2011. In the results we had this fantastic photo from Tore Heggelund:
The Panoramio community realized immediately though, that the image was not linked from Tore's gallery but from another user's gallery. The image was copied, published in another account's gallery and submitted to the Panoramio monthly contest.
As soon as we realized the abuse, we corrected the mistake and took action on the infringing account. Since it was so swiftly reported through our users, I want to thank the Panoramio Community for finding and reporting this abuse. At the same time I want to use the opportunity to clarify the DMCA procedure.
When you upload an image to Panoramio you can decide on the permissions you give to that image following the Creative Commons (CC) licensing. You can define the license photo by photo or you can have a general setting across all the photos you upload in Panoramio. To change this, you can go to your Settings page in the "Sharing, licenses and copyright" section.
Adding CC licensing to your image will not avoid misuse of your material, but it will give you the right to complain about it. If your image has been copied within Panoramio you can report it using the DMCA infringement form. If the image is copied in any other Google property, you have also available a general Google DMCA form.
It may happen in some cases that a photo hosted in Panoramio is displayed in another site or media. If the site displaying the image is not using the Panoramio API to do so, or it is not following the rights that you are providing in your CC licensing, you can file a complain directly to the site that is infringing your rights. In most of the cases they are not aware they are infringing your rights and they may take action following your notification.
Thanks again for your help on this and thanks for respecting the rights of the photographers.

A family-owned winery claims the economic downturn has helped one portion of its business. When times get tough, more people return to church and that means an increase in one of the vinyards specialties: sacramental wines.
In the June 5 San Gabriel edition of The Tidings, the newspaper of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, reporter Janis Nelson takes a look at how business is booming for one of the nation's largest producers of sacramental wines. Read about the fortunes of the St. Anthony Winery run by the Riboli family in "When going gets tough, (altar) wine gets flowing." Shown at left are family members Anthony and Steve Riboli.

This is my kitchen...lots of oak and gold handles and oak...and more oak. Did I mention that I don't like oak? Now that we've expanded our family room (yes, I know I haven't posted "final" pictures of that!) and have a such a light and bright space with crisp white woodwork...well, the oak kitchen really doesn't flow with the space.
I've been planning our kitchen re-do for quite awhile, but I wanted to wait until the addition was done. So, now is the time! We spent the three day holiday weekend starting this project. We didn't get as far as I wanted, but we made good progress. I was hoping to get one side (the stove side) of the kitchen done. That didn't happen, but I do like what did happen!
My plan for our kitchen is to put beadboard on all the exposed ends of the cabinets as well as in the flat panels on the cabinet insets. Crown moulding will go on the tops of the cabinets and trim will be added to the bottom edge of the top cabinets. Quarter round trim will go along the base of the cabinets to transition to the hardwood floor. Everything will be sanded and painted a crisp white.
First we removed the cabinet doors and everything in the cabinets on one side of the kitchen. Then I started sanding the cabinets while my husband started cutting beadboard. We clamped up the first big piece of beadboard to see what we thought...and we loved it! Now my husband was beginning to see my vision for the kitchen!
I kept sanding and my husband kept cutting. I sanded all the doors using a random orbital sander as well as sandpaper along the edges. I primed and painted the old hinges with spray paint as we're hoping to reuse them. We attached the beadboard to the cabinet sides and door fronts using Liquid Nails and then my husband used finish nails and a hammer to attach the crown moulding and other trim pieces. Right now the budget doesn't allow for the purchase of a nail gun and compressor, but that sure would have come in handy.
This is my husband's first time cutting crown moulding--I think he did a fantastic job! Oh and take a look at the countertop. We have laminate counters with oak trim (yes, more oak!) that we're trying to save. I taped off the edge and primed it...and it is looking like it will work.
At this point the cabinets have one coat of primer. I'll be priming them again before painting them with some high quality white latex paint that I bought from Benjamin Moore. I'm painting everything with a brush. We have a paint sprayer, but it isn't a very good one because we don't have an air compressor (that whole budget thing again) and I decided that sanding out drips from our cheapo paint sprayer would be a huge pain because of the beadboard. So far the brush is working really well!
The beadboard panels fit perfectly on the flat surfaces of our kitchen cabinets. The faces of the cabinet boxes stick out just a bit on the front--so on the corners of the cabinets the edges aren't even. Does that make sense? Here's a picture where you can see how the beadboard just nestles right in there.
Still a lot (a LOT!) of work to go, but I'm already thrilled with how much better our kitchen is looking. I really and truly love what we're doing to the kitchen! Stay tuned and I'll post more pictures as we continue with the process.

Artist Statement
Witnessing the birth and growth of the digital age had a powerful impact on my work as an artist. While my formal art training was grounded in tradition, a parallel path developed involving the creation of art with the computer. As technology changed history, my work changed with it and my paintings progressed from mixed media to all digital.
I saw the world become more connected on a global level, but increasingly isolated on an individual level. And within the terrifyingly vast landscape known as the internet, I looked on as an entire culture turned away from face-to-face communication. Intimacy became cybersex, and true identities were replaced by ideal or false personas, yet we still long to connect. These themes emerged in my figurative paintings and continue to inspire my work today.
From a technical perspective, the computer has become my collaborator. Where software allows the ability to simulate conventional painting, it also opens up countless possibilities that never existed before. I use graphic shapes and patterns as brushes. I create, pose and light my own digital models. And I can explore an infinite number of variations with the ability to return to different stages in the process.
Another new element born of digital communication is a marketing device called a Quick Response or QR code. Accessible via smartphones and QR readers, these two-dimensional codes can contain text or data, or lead to a webpage with additional information in multimedia formats. In 2010, I began incorporating QR codes into my paintings.
In addition to blurring the line between art and commodity, QR codes serve many different functions within my work. On one level, they are an extension – providing information to deepen understanding and connection, and allowing viewers to physically interact with my paintings. In some instances, the codes serve as a stamp or symbol of authorship – much like a modernized Japanese chop. I've even used the codes themselves as paint brushes, assigning them to a completely different form of utility.
As a condensed digital representation of information (or a message), these codes have a natural place within the language and fabric of my work. The overall result is completely unique.
In terms of digital painting in general, the basic process is that I interpret the world and the computer interprets my input. Ultimately, the final decisions are mine. The paradoxical truth is that the power of digital art, and using technology to make art, will always rely on the human element. My work is both an example and an expression of this.

Rabbit-Proof Fence (film)
From Quotes
Love is like a fruit. It may look good, but you shouldn't bite in it until it's ripe.Nick Hertl
(Redirected from Rabbit-Proof Fence)
Rabbit-Proof Fence is a 2002 Australian drama film based on the book Follow The Rabbit Proof Fence by Doris Pilkington Garimara. It concerns three mixed-race Aboriginal girls, who run away from the Moore River Native Settlement, north of Perth, in which they were placed in 1931, in order to return to their Aboriginal families. The film follows the girls as they trek for nine weeks along 1,500 miles (2414km) of the Australian rabbit-proof fence to return to their community at Jigalong while being tracked by a white authority figure and a black tracker.
- Directed by Phillip Noyce. Written by Doris Pilkington (book) and Christine Olsen.
Molly Craig
- This is a true story - story of my sister Daisy, my cousin Gracie and me when we were little. Our people, the Jigalong mob, we were desert people then, walking all over our land. My mum told me about how the white people came to our country. They made a storehouse here at Jigalong - brought clothes and other things - flour, tobacco, tea. Gave them to us on ration day. We came there, made a camp nearby. They were building a long fence.
- This girl is clever. She wants to go home.
A.O. Neville
- If only they would understand what we are trying to do for them.

Harvesting Ginnan at Ganenji Temple – Gifu
The season to harvest the fruit of the giant Ginkgo trees that Japan and especially Tokyo is so famous for has come. If you have spent any time under a ginkgo tree in the autumn you will recognize the squishy pale fruits that fall in great heaps from some of the trees, and the very peculiar odor that comes from the fruit as it starts rotting on the ground. In parks and along streets it is quite common to see people collecting the fallen fruit, while the flesh itself is poisonous, the seeds can be quite delicious when prepared correctly. While visiting the small Ganenji temple in Minoshi, a small city in Gifu prefecture I saw a smart method of collecting the fruit: just let them fall on a blue sheet spread out under the tree and collect them in buckets to let the flesh of the fruit rot and fall of by itself. While really tasty, the nut, called Ginnan in Japanese (銀杏), it is not too good to eat to much. My stomach never agrees to more than a handful of the nuts at a time, but I am sure some strong stomached people can eat more than that! Ginnan is one of those things you just have to try if you are in Japan in autumn or during the winter. I am sure you can also find the fruits in other countries, but unless you know how to prepare them they will probably just be a very smelly nuisance. Ginnan taste a bit like chest-nuts. I'll write more about Minoshi and Gifu prefecture in a few days.

We have some pretty great Seahawks/Wilson videos out there right now, but I wish one of them was half as cool as this.
This video reminded me of something. Not only did both Brady/Wilson battle the odds to play in the NFL, but they weren't even wanted by their college coaches despite their excellence on the field. Michigan only begrudgingly played Tom Brady after giving Drew Henson every possible chance to take Brady's job. Why? Because Brady was some nobody and Henson was an all-american prospect. Wilson was essentially pushed out of NC State in favor of Mike Glennon, despite everything Wilson did for that program. Why? Because Wilson was some nobody and Glennon was an all-american prospect.
I'd love to see a fan documentary like this for Wilson in ten years time. I think he's going to have a very similar career when it's all said and done.

VAIL, Colo.— One person was killed and three others were injured Tuesday in an avalanche in the backcountry near Vail.
The slide happened at around 11:30 a.m. in East Vail Chutes, an area between Vail Mountain and Vail Pass, Eagle County sheriff's spokeswoman Jessie Mosher said. The three survivors were expected to recover from their injuries.
The death is the fifth in the Rocky Mountain region and the second in Colorado in the last two weeks.
The avalanche danger where the latest deadly slide occurred is rated as considerable at or above the tree line for two main reasons. New snow over the weekend was pushed into slabs by wind, and those more cohesive layers of snow are resting on top of the relatively weak early season snowfall, said Spencer Logan of the Colorado Avalanche Information Center. The combination of a weak base layer under cohesive slabs tends to create slides that break in very wide pieces.
Such dangerous conditions are possible each winter, but last year they didn't develop until late January because significant snowfall didn't develop until later in the season, Logan said.
East Vail Chutes has had a series of slides in the last few weeks, including one that trapped a skier. A popular YouTube video shows Edwin LaMair trapped up to his neck before his brother and a friend dug him out.

Toby Keith Foundation Cancer Treatment Facility Approved by Local Board
Toby Keith should be ready to raise a 'Red Solo Cup' in celebration. The singer's Toby Keith Foundation has designs on opening a facility to house and provide amenities for the families of children receiving treatment for cancer. The foundation is inching closer to its goal of opening the $8.5 million complex, dubbed the OK Kids Korral, as an Oklahoma City board has approved the plans.
News OK reports that the 25,000 square-foot building would feature 12 overnight suites for families to bunk in while their children are receiving care at a nearby hospital or center. It's a brilliant idea that allows parents to focus on attending to and supporting their sick children in addition to handling other daily duties and tasks in a comfortable environment.
The OK Kids Korral is slated to open in late 2013. The building process is scheduled to begin this coming spring.
"Instead of having to stay at the hospital during that time, the families can come back where they can use the library, play area — where parents can get on a computer and check email — or they can simply relax," Toby Keith Foundation Director Juliet Nees-Bright said about the OK Kids Korral.
Congrats to the Toby Keith Foundation on this victory.

Apple investors will get another dividend today which will go some way (although not very far) to appease them following the recent losses in value of the AAPL stock.
The dividend amounts to $2.5 billion, but in real terms it's $2.65 (£1.67) per share.
It's the second dividend that Apple has paid to shareholders - the company also paid a dividend last quarter. Prior to that Apple hadn't paid a dividend for 17 years (reports claim that late CEO Steve Jobs was against the practice).
Apple paid the first dividend of recent times on 16 August. It was also worth $2.65 a share.
Speaking at an analyst conference call back in March, CEO Tim Cook said: "Subject to a board declaration, we plan to initiate a quarterly dividend of $2.65 per share beginning in the September quarter. A quarterly dividend will provide current income to our shareholders, and we also believe it will broaden Apple's investor base by attracting new investors who don't currently own Apple stock."
Apple will continue to make a $2.5 billion dividend payment to investors each quarter.
To qualify, investors needed to hold shares on or before Monday 12 November.
Apple pays its quarterly dividends about a month and a half after the end of each subsequent quarter. These quarterly dividends will incurs income tax as they are paid out.

Easter celebrations will be a bit more joyful for several dozen men who are leaving prison to be with their families in several Caribbean nations.
The inmates, nonviolent offenders who were being held for nonpayment of fines as low as $10, are able to head home for the holiday under a programs established by Food for the Poor based in Coconut Creek, Fla.
Angel Aloma, executive director of the organization, told Catholic News Service that agency representatives arranged to pay the fines of men who were jailed for petty crimes, such as stealing a loaf of bread.
Some inmates have been held as long as two years because they could not afford the fines.
Food for the Poor undertakes the effort in the weeks before Easter and Christmas at prisons in the Dominican Republic, Guyana, Haiti, Honduras and Jamaica.
Aloma said in most cases inmates must endure overcrowding, food shortages, lack of bedding and primitive sanitation facilities.
An overnight fire at a prison in Comayagua, Honduras, in February claimed more than 350 lives. Officials blamed the high casualty toll on overcrowded conditions in the prison, where an estimated 800-900 inmates were housed in a facility built for 350-400 people.
"The situations are horrendous," Aloma said.
For those who remain jailed, Food for the Poor delivers food, shoes and clothing.
"It's hard for them to see somebody released and they remain there," Aloma added.
The program would not be as successful without the cooperation of prison officials in each of the countries, he said, explaining that they are strapped by limited resources allocated by national governments to provide for inmates' needs and to improve prison facilities.
"Ours is a spiritual visit," Aloma said. "We wash their feet in a true sense of humility because, by the virtue of where we are born, there but for the grace of God go I."

An Embarrassment Of Riches
From MMOs based on known properties (ranging from Star Wars to Conan to D&D) all the way to new designs such as The Secret World, it seems that we're in the middle of an MMO F2P/B2P explosion. Yes, the basic MMO design hasn't changed too much since the EQ and early WoW days, but how it's implemented and for what property has.
As much as some people want to complain about how the F2P and B2P games make their money*, the fact that they not only are able to survive but put out new content has to be heartening. Look at a game such as Age of Conan: after a huge launch, it was pretty much written off and/or left for dead after the glitches and the "Tortage vs. the rest of the game" experience. However, it just finished it's fifth anniversary after having spent the past few years as F2P. The Old Republic suffered from the "nothing to do" syndrome after a toon reached max level**, but after it went F2P Bioware has not only provided new updates and content but has seen a stabilization in subs and a rise in players.
The F2P/B2P models aren't panaceas, and I'm not altogether certain they are the wave of the future, but what these two models do provide is choice. Don't think WoW or Rift is brutal enough? Go try adventuring in Hyborea for a while. Need more Cthulhu? There's an entire game devoted to that feeling of dread and despair (The Secret World). Tired of killing Sith? There's a Klingon D7 with your name on it. Or maybe you want the feel of returning to an old haunt like the Forgotten Realms? Or an even older haunt like The Shire? Or maybe you just want to be an angel for a little while, such as in Aion.***
And that's not even touching games such as Guild Wars 2 (and the upcoming Wildstar).
I think it's pretty safe to say that I'd have burned out on MMOs in general if there weren't such a variety to play with these days. It can cause problems for me when I get into an instance or a battleground, but in general I really enjoy the variety of worlds to play in. My only regret is that I can't pay these companies more for their work (budget, you know). But I do what I can.
Is it too much to have someone look at the old Darklands video game and create an MMO based on that? Now THAT would be cool.
*I was thinking of the Ten Ton Hammer article on how much they hate the lock boxes for Star Trek Online, but the reality is that those lock boxes and those announcements in-game are no worse than seeing hundreds of sparkle ponies in WoW.
**As well as a lack of grouping tools, etc., that players had become accustomed to. Remember, even Blizzard tried to mix things up in Cata by having players find the entrance to the instances before they were allowed to queue for them, but what happened was that players would simply avoid the instances they didn't like (/cough Stonecore /cough).
***Now that I think about it, an MMO based on Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson series would be pretty cool. My kids are presently working on an RPG for Percy Jackson using the Savage Worlds system and the Super Powers Companion books as a starting point, and I'm sure they're not the only ones out there who have had that idea.

I downloaded Neverwinter last week just so I could take a small break from SWTOR. Even though the game is very simple mechanic wise, I am enjoying it tremendously. I know I will stick with SWTOR as my main, but it is nice to have all these F2P games to chose from.ReplyDelete
What I find interesting is the vastly different methods of implementation of F2P between companies. In GW2 I hardly noticed it. I just bought stuff to show appreciation of the low impact.ReplyDelete
SWTOR seemed punitive to me, I had to resub almost immediately on coming back but maybe it was because I'd been there at the start so it seemed oppressive.
This morning on the third day of Neverwinter I bought some currency, just kind of an attaboy, I like your game, lol.Replies
I've seen my kids play TOR as F2P, and it doesn't seem too bad, but I know that the lack of bag space especially can get really annoying. If there were two things I'd buy from the TOR store, it'd be more bag space and more character slots.Delete

I came across an amazing blog dedicated to kids spaces on the weekend called
The Boo and the Boy. I found myself going through every single page
as I am getting idea's for Zoe's new 'big girl' room and for the new
babies room also. I am really excited and can't wait to get started on
them both. We decided to get bunk beds in Zoe's room. She will be sleeping
on the bottom bunk ofcourse until she is much older. But seeing we won't have a spare
room once the new baby arrives, I think it was a better option and a space saver given the rooms
are tiny. I can't wait to get them, have the new blinds and built in robes put in and then
I can start decorating. I will stick to pink and red for Zoe's room with lots od red and white stripes
and spots. Will be sure to do a post on her room once it is finished..

Snow showers
Some snow showers are moving through the area...except for the northern Sound area, which is in the rainshadow (now snowshadow) of the Olympics. The rainshadow is there because the wind are from the southwest aloft. Northerly winds will push southward today and showers will be enhanced at and north of that interface, aided by a weak upper level shortwave disturbance. Don't expect a major snowstorm, but an inch or two is possible.

Current NWS forecast for BLI is "Total daytime snow accumulation of less than a half inch possible."
I have an easy inch on the ground right now at 8:00 AM, it's 26F, and a glance at the radar loop suggests there's a lot more to come.
Of course if they'd predicted 4-6 inches we wouldn't have gotten any...

Snow showers actually started here in Richmond Highlands Shoreline at 8:30am.
Interesting micro-weather yestereday. Driving S on I-5 at about noon, left Shoreline 41F and partly sunny, S of Downtown Seattle we hit some light snow showers - still about 40. Des Moines/Federal Way dropped to 34F (car thermometer) and was snowing like crazy, covering trees and grass and sticking to the road in a slushy mess. Got to Fife and things warmed back up to 36, snow still falling but not as hard and the roads were clear. I understand the convergence zone concept but the fact that the temperature dropped so significantly in that spot was amazing to me.

This lovely mousse cake is when East meets West.
The subtle, sweet & fragrant oolong mousse with crispy Asian pears coupled with the chewy & moist pecan brownie.
When it melts in the mouth, I can feel the delicacy & sweetness, gradually overtaken by the rich & nutty chocolate brownie.
I've chosen to use Asian pear over William pear.
William pear usually go tender after poaching, but I wanted crunchy bits in the mousse & Asian pear retains its crisp texture.
Plus, Asian pear is very juicy with a delicate & refreshing fragrant.
It is one of my favourite fruit.
Oolong tea varies in taste & the tea I used is originated from China which is sweet & fruity.
The taste of oolong tea is vital so I would recommend to get the best oolong tea you can get hold of.
I really like it, especially the mousse & I'll definitely make it again :)
You can also make a 'West meets West' version, simply replacing the oolong tea with black tea like earl grey, Asian pear with William pear.
Recipe (8" square):
Oolong Tea Poached Asian Pears
Oolong Tea Poached Asian Pears
2 Asian pears, peeled, cored & diced
5 g oolong tea leaves, in a tea infuser
50 g granulated sugar
200 g water
In a saucepan, combine sugar & water, bring water to boil & stir until sugar dissolved.
Remove from heating, put in the pears & the infuser containing oolong tea.
Leave to stand for 3-5 min then remove tea infuser but leave pears to stand for at least 1 h.
Drain the pears & reserve the syrup.
Pecan Chocolate Brownie
2 eggs, separated
75 g pecan nuts, roughly chopped
80 g sugar
100 g dark chocolate 72%
100 g salted butter
45 g plain flour
Preheat oven to 190C & line a parchment paper on a 8" square pan.
Melt chocolate & butter over simmering water, stir until smooth.
In a mixing bowl, whisk egg yolks with 20 g sugar until light & creamy, fold in the chocolate butter.
In another bowl, whisk egg whites with remaining sugar to soft peaks, fold in chocolate batter.
Sift in the flour & add the pecan nuts, fold until combined.
Pour into the prepared pan & bake for 18-20 min.
Oolong Syrup
50 ml pear oolong syrup
1/2 tbsp whisky
Combine all ingredients.
Oolong White Chocolate Mousse
3 egg yolks
350 g whipping cream, whipped to soft peaks
20 g sugar
120 g white chocolate, melted
10 g sheet gelatine, bloomed in cool water
200 ml milk
10 g oolong tea leaves
Combine oolong tea & milk in a saucepan, bring the milk to boil then keep it simmering for 3-5 min, remove tea leaves.
Add in the bloomed gelatine & stir until dissolved.
Add in melted chocolate & stir until smooth.
In a mixing bowl, whisk egg yolks with sugar over simmering water until pale & creamy.
Pour in the chocolate milk & stir until smooth.
Fold in the whipped cream until smooth.
Topping Jelly
150 ml pear oolong syrup
2 tsp whisky
4 g sheet gelatine, bloomed
Combine all ingredients, heat using microwave & stir until gelatine is dissolved.
Remove the brownie & place it at the bottom of a 8" square mousse ring.
Brush generous amount of oolong syrup on the brownie.
Pour the oolong mousse over the brownie, arrange the pears evenly over the mousse, refrigerate to set.
Pour the jelly on top & refrigerate to set.
Carefully remove the cake from the mousse ring, cut into 10 entremets & decorate with fruits.

Justin Bieber Has a Message for Fathers of His Female Fanbase
Dads of the world, don't be afraid of your teenage daughter's love and lust for heartthrob Justin Bieber. The Biebs is clean cut, wholesome and the type of guy you should want your little girl to bring home for you to meet. The Biebs knows this, and he uses it to his, uh, advantage in his latest commercial for his best-selling 'Someday' fragrance.
The Biebs invites the discerning dads of his fans for a little video sit down, a la Vito Corleone in 'The Godfather.' He is seated next to a framed, faceless photo. Insert your daughter's pic, mentally.
The Biebs, clearly self-aware in this video and showing an amazing sense of humor, says matter-of-factly, "Your daughter wanted us to chat. We got off on the wrong foot. I get it. I have a full head of hair. I am a huge megastar." Not the way to clear the air, JB! But we get it. He's being funny.
But he has an even better point, one that should quickly win the approval of dads-of-teenage-girls the world over when he says, "It could be a lot worse. Think about it. Guys her age. Remember when you were that age? Exactly." The Biebs isn't looking too much like a foe or a target anymore, now is he?
He continued, "I am a great distraction. Someday, you might even thank me." That was a thinly veiled reference to his fragrance. Did ya catch it? Yeah, you did.
He closed out the commercial by saying, "So next time you hear her scream my name, relax, it's better
than her screaming 'Joey,' who lives next door. Am I right?"
Oh Biebs, you are right. You just won the approval of the sire of every Belieber out there.
Watch the Justin Bieber 'Someday' Commercial

Wigmore Venerable, Veteran and Ancient Trees
Venerable, Veteran and Ancient Trees in Wigmore, Mortimer Country, north Herefordshire
Despite their immense size and long history, they are so much a part of our daily lives that we often fail to notice them. These are trees that are living relics of incredible age supporting wildlife and habitat features that cannot live anywhere else. These include hollowing, holes, large dead branches and decay fungi. At the mature stage of life they shrink with age and are usually fatter and shorter than any other tree in the area. Standing and watching over the landscape for century after century they have inspired feelings of awe and mystery and are mentioned in sacred texts.
Rich in ancient woodland within Mortimer Country surviving trees can be found in the remnants of Royal Hunting forests (Bringewood Chase, Mortimer Forest) or medieval deer parks (Brampton Bryan). Individual specimens can be found in historic parkland (Croft Castle Estate); wood pastures and ancient wooded commons (Shobdon Hill) and within the grounds of historic buildings (the avenue of sweet chestnuts at Croft Castle).
Whilst walking or cycling in Mortimer Country it is not unusual to glimpse a venerable tree on farmland or in a church yard.
Croft Castle is a particularly good place to explore the landscape of veteran trees
There is a wealth of veteran trees at Croft, all with their own legend to tell. In fact, the Croft estate is one of the top ten sites in the country for the quality and diversity of ancient trees.
Ancient survivors
From the 1,000 year oak to the row of Spanish chestnuts, these majestic trees offer a glimpse of the history of the parkland.
Trees of this age are rare in Europe and Croft is particularly lucky to have so many survivors.
Our Quarry Oak
There is an oak tree which is dated from 1,000 years ago. It is protected by a sheltered position near a quarry and is still a healthy tree but one that we treat gently and with great respect.
Battle worn
Near to the Castle is the Spanish chestnut avenue which was the original formal approach to the Castle. Aerial views of the avenue show lines and clumps of these trees which could represent a battle.
The story told is that the chestnuts were taken from captured Spanish vessels during the battle of the Spanish Armada (1588) and planted at Croft between 1580 and 1680 and represent the formal battle plan of the ships at the Armada.

NORVASC FOR SALE, Jim Molinari paused for a moment when he was asked what he could take away from a basketball season that spun out of control in the closing weeks.

Molinari likes the speed he'll be getting from incoming freshman guards Remy Roberts-Burnett and Obi Emegano.
But he also knows he has to hit the recruiting trail. He will focus on finding a big man to provide defense and take some pressure off Price, a solid rebounder who found himself in foul trouble at times, NORVASC FOR SALE.
"We had no basket protection this season," Molinari said.
But he also knows he has to increase the team's on-court IQ.
"The guys that we sign have to have a good feel for the game," Molinari said. "You have to have that."
Molinari has maintained a positive outlook during the season. NORVASC FOR SALE, It's just not an experience he wants to go through again.
"Personally. I'm more driven now to get us where we want to go," he said. "We have to make sure this doesn't happen again.
"I think we can make a big step next season."
But it will take offseason work from the returning players, and he's going to have to find help in the spring recruiting period.
"We have a lot of work to do," he said.

Losing Patience, Obama Challenges Egypt's Leaders
Without naming Mubarak directly, Obama issued a written statement on Thursday night in which he criticized the leader for a lack of clarity and direction. That assessment came after Mubarak surprised those protesting in Egypt's streets by saying, in a broadly watched speech, that he would shift powers to his vice president but remain in charge of the country.
He had been widely expected to step down on Thursday, as even the CIA chief had suggested was in the offing.
"Too many Egyptians remain unconvinced that the government is serious about a genuine transition to democracy, and it is the responsibility of the government to speak clearly to the Egyptian people and the world," Obama said. "The Egyptian government must put forward a credible, concrete and unequivocal path toward genuine democracy."
Just as Mubarak seemed on the brink of leaving, with internal pressure mounting and labor strikes spreading, he spoke instead of ceding power to his vice president, Omar Suleiman, and making other interim concessions. Obama responded that it was not clear whether that move was an "immediate, meaningful or sufficient" sign of reform for a country in upheaval.
After a series of fast-changing events, Obama scrambled with his national security team over how to respond to a televised Mubarak speech that had left many surprised and even baffled. Obama's tone was far less upbeat than it had been earlier in the day, when he declared the world was watching history unfold as young Egyptians rallied for freedoms.
In his final statement, Obama challenged Egypt's leaders to plainly explain what the new changes mean and how they would help those who have led an uprising since late January.
Still, analysts and even U.S. officials themselves acknowledge the White House has limited power to shape what Egypt does.
Obama devoted most of statement to the familiar calls by his government for Egypt to respect the rights of its people and to immediately negotiate a path to free elections.
The developments capped 17 days of mass anti-government protests, the strongest challenge ever to Mubarak's nearly 30 years of authoritarian rule. The White House has warned Egypt's leaders that they should not expect those protests to go away until they respond appropriately; at issue is a push to end years of repression, poverty and corruption.
The events seemed to catch many by surprise.
Before Mubarak's speech, CIA Director Leon Panetta told Congress there was "a strong likelihood" that the Egyptian leader was on the way out and could step down as early as Thursday night. Egypt's military had assured protesters that Mubarak would meet their demands.
Yet the Egyptian president stuck to a framework for reform that protesters have roundly rejected out of fear that it will mean only cosmetic change.
Also earlier in the day, as anticipation grew, Obama said that what the United States wanted was transition to democracy in Egypt that was not just orderly but "genuine."
"What is absolutely clear is that we are witnessing history unfold," Obama said at the start of an overshadowed economic event in Michigan. "It's a moment of transformation that's taking place because the people of Egypt are calling for change."
In his address on state TV, Mubarak showed the strategy he has followed throughout the days of upheaval. He has made a series of largely superficial concessions while resolutely sticking to his refusal to step down immediately. And on Thursday, he said he would not give in to what he called foreign dictates.
Some U.S. officials responded sharply to that.
"President Mubarak's announcement that he will remain in power is deeply unfortunate and troubling," said Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona. "The voices of the Egyptian people are growing louder and more unified, and they are not demanding partial transfers of power or minor adjustments to the current government. They are calling for President Mubarak to step down."
Joel Rubin, a former State Department official under President George W. Bush, said Mubarak was directly referring to the United States on Thursday when he said he would not be pushed out by foreign powers.
"He's daring them," said Rubin, deputy director at the Washington-based National Security Network. "The White House will have a harder time messaging now because he's called their bluff."
Washington officials followed the unfolding drama in Cairo with hopeful expectation for a smooth transition - mixed with concern over the unpredictability of the developments.
"There is no question that what we are seeing happening in Egypt will have tremendous impact," Panetta told the House Intelligence Committee. "If it's done right, it will help us a great deal in trying to promote stability in that part of the world. If it happens wrong, it could create some serious problems for us and for the rest of the world."
The administration was also watching closely for developments that might affect U.S. aid to Egypt. A coup or other non-constitutional transfer of power could trigger a suspension in all non-humanitarian assistance. The U.S. is providing at least $1.5 billion annually to Egypt in military aid.
Richard N. Haass, president of the Council on Foreign Relations, said Mubarak's speech left the fundamental situation in Egypt unchanged. "We cannot steer things," Haass said of the approach by U.S. officials. "We have limited influence."
Associated Press writers Erica Werner in Marquette, Mich., and Julie Pace, Jim Kuhnhenn, Darlene Superville, Tom Raum, Kimberly Dozier, Donna Cassata, Matthew Lee and Barry Schweid in Washington contributed to this report.

After the death of Malcolm McLaren, film critic (and Beyond the Valley of the Dolls scribe), Roger Ebert posted on his always-excellent journal, McLaren & Meyer & Rotten & Vicious & Me, his take on getting a Sex Pistols movie off the ground with Dolls director, Russ Meyer.
At the time, Ebert had no idea who the Sex Pistols were. The Pistols, though, very much wanted to work with the creative team behind Dolls, a movie Johnny Rotten deemed as being, "true to life." It's a funny, informative account that somehow, along the way, accommodates both P.J. Proby and Scientology.
As to why the movie, Who Killed Bambi?, never happened, various reasons have been circulated: Maybe 20th Century Fox pulled the plug after reading the resulting screenplay, or McLaren's shaky finances would never have covered the film's budget. Or perhaps, most intriguingly, (Princess) Grace Kelly, who served on the Fox board of directors, simply didn't want the studio to back another Russ Meyer X-travaganza (likely profits be damned).
Oh well, we still have Julien Temple's The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle and The Filth and The Fury. But we can now add to that era another document. Ebert just posted on his journal the complete screenplay for Who Killed Bambi? Here's a sample:
Just then the SEX PISTOLS appear on the screen. They're dressed in what could be described as Proto-Punk: The look is definitely different from that of the other people on the line, and yet isn't as well-defined as it will be later on.
They split up to work the line: They're of it, but not in it. STEVE carries his guitar, vaguely suggesting they're into music of some sort. SID VICIOUS goes into his famous Sun-Glasses dance, his hands inverted and placed in front of his eyes to suggest either binoculars or a Batman-style headdress. The Pistols seem amused by the notion that people would stand in line in an unemployment queue at all.
Proby watches, fascinated by their wonderfully Downtrodden look, as they approach the others.
SID VICIOUS (to the Miner)
Why stand in line, you silly twit?
It's your money - why wait for it?
Why don't they provide seating out here?
The crowd grows silent, uneasy, in the face of the attack.
They take it with one hand and give it back with the other.
So smash it and take it!
And while Ebert refuses to comment on his script, "I can't discuss what I wrote, why I wrote it, or what I should or shouldn't have written. Frankly, I have no idea," here he is in '88 with Meyer and McLaren discussing—and venting over—Who Killed Bambi?

Edesia Cookbook Review
As I mentioned, Kim Ode, a writer for the Minneapolis Star Tribune and avid bread baker, is hosting a series of events about cookbooks. The first panel was about bread cookbooks, and I was asked to talk about, not surprisingly, The Bread Bible. Kim Ode reviewed Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day, and Will Powers, member of the St. Paul Bread Club, filled in for Solveig Tofte, who had to bow out because she was in training for the Bread Olympics; he discussed Peter Reinhart's new book on whole grain breads.
The event turned out to be great fun, and we had a knowledgeable and enthusiastic audience, including, to my delight, my faithful reader Jini.
All of us brought bread for the audience to sample. I ended up deciding to bake two kinds in case one of them didn't turn out. Of course, I didn't want to embarrass myself by showing up with some ugly, tasteless bread, but I also wanted to do right by Rose's recipes. I had to try my nemesis, the rosemary focaccia, which is no longer my nemesis. Each stage turned out perfectly: the soupy mixture turning into a ball after 20 minutes of beating, and the ball becoming a stretchy mixture resembling smooth, creamy melted mozzarella:
Best of all, the mozzarella/dough miraculously became transformed into a beautiful, brown, chewy rosemary focaccia. I even remembered to dimple deeply before sprinkling on the rosemary and the salt.
Jim thought it didn't have quite enough salt on it to be perfect, but I say Rose herself would have nodded approvingly at this bread. As it turned out, I wouldn't have had to do the backup bread because I was so pleased with the focaccia, but I'd already started a chocolate-almond kugelhopf, which required the purchase of some new almond paste because I misplaced the last tube I bought. (No, I don't know how it's possible to misplace almond paste).
I was feeling pretty invincible after the successful focaccia, and I loved the feel of the kugelhopf dough. It rolled out easily and I was confident of another success when I shaped it and smoothed on the filling without trouble.
Unfortunately, it wasn't quite long enough to let me double the ends over each other, so it ended up looking a little peculiar.
This is not, I'll be the first to admit, a perfect kugelhopf. It's quite imperfect. I decided I would take just one bread after all, and so I cut open the kugelhopf to give Jim and Sarah a piece.
But look how pretty! And so delicious!
As Jim was about to cut himself a second slice, I grabbed the knife away from him, and told him he couldn't have any more. It occurred to me that I could cut slices and arrange them prettily on a platter. No one would have to know that they came from imperfect bread.
I passed around both breads to oohs and aahs. People admired the focaccia, but there's nothing like chocolate, is there? The kugelhopf platter was completely denuded by the time it made the rounds, and poor Jim felt that his lovely little chocolate bread had been wrested away from him to feed a bunch of strangers, and Jini, too, but she was no longer a stranger.
The next Edesia cookbook review will be at the Galleria Barnes & Noble on Monday, March 24. It will be spring by then, and a perfect time to talk about Mediterranean cooking, which will be the topic. I plan to be there--in the audience this time, and, I hope, sampling some Mediterranean recipes and maybe adding to my cookbook collection.

I sure wish I could be there! I want to try samples of bread too. The focaccia is beaut and the kugelhopf does look delightful cut and arranged on the plate.
Such a lovely picture of you and Jini together.
(Hey, no more braces! Nice teeth, Marie.)
Did the other people bring samples?
I expect there will be a bigger crowd when the word gets out there is food!
Both breads look lovely, and so nice to see a picture of you too! Am I right that you are the one on the right? Why I think that, I don't know . Wish I was near enough to visit the next venue, to be sure.Jeannette
- breadbasketcase said...
There were many samples--a whole grain bread from Reinhart's book, an olive bread, a boule, and mine. Very carb-heavy, but very good.
I can't believe you noticed my braces were off! Even Jim didn't notice until I told him.
Yes, I am the one on the right. I wish you were near enough too, but that would be quite a trip.
How lovely! Wish I could have been there. I've enjoyed your blog so much and would love to meet and talk about baking with you and others. NC is a bit far away... Mediterranean cooking is my specialty - hubby is Greek! Any questions, just let me know.
- Doughadear said...
What a wonderful event to a part of! Your focaccia and kugelhopf look wonderful and I'm sure they were a hit.
Thanks again for sharing your experience and your bread with everyone. You spoke with such humor and reasonableness; I know you inspired others, as I saw a couple of Rose's books head toward the cash registers. And Jim, your photos are terrific! I'm feeling all sorts of good karma from Edesia getting off to such a good start. Thanks!
- jini said...
this is a great post marie. your breads were indeed beautiful and delicious.....both of them! it was such fun to hear the differing methods of the bakers...and see their well-used cookbooks, some i believe were held together with shipping tape! ;) i have used my new book, and successfully baked some 5 minute artisan bread.....i may get up my courage and use tbb yet!
i am looking forward to the march rendition of edesia....mediterranean snacks are calling.
hey it's nice to be FORMER strangers!
- pinknest said...
i want to denude the kugelhopf!! that sounds dirty.
- breadbasketcase said...
Yes, here's a question--what's your favorite Mediterranean cookbook? I'll have to let you know what the panelists recommend, and you can see if you agree.
It was a lot of fun. Bakers are lovely people.
My pleasure. I think the cookbook review is an inspired idea. I hope that you're planning one on vegetarian cookbooks. Like a lot of people, I'm doing more vegetarian cooking now, although I'm not a vegetarian. I've got my own favorite vegetarian cookbooks, but I'd love to hear about others.
As a cookbook collector, I'm in awe of people who say they cook only from two favorite (and duct-taped) cookbooks. But I can't believe you haven't tried The Bread Bible yet! Did I know that?
Ha. I think it's hard to say kugelhopf without sounding faintly obscene, and when you use it in the same sentence as "denude,".... I'm going to try to master chocolate babka at some point in my life--I think the kugelhopf may be a good starting point.
- Pat said...
Marie- I was at the first book sidcussion and thought it went really well. I am impressed with your breadbaking skills. Based on the number of people there, I think there is a lot of interest. I will be a presenter in April (28th) with my cookbook "Baking Basics and Beyond" and hope I do as well. Pat Sinclair
- breadbasketcase said...
I agree that there is a lot of interest, and I hope there will be an overflowing crowd for the April discussion. How impressive that you have your own cookbook--I'll be sure to check it out!
- jini said...
hello famous one.....just noticed that rose mentioned your blog in her last post. woohoo!
- breadbasketcase said...
Hi Jini,
What an honor! I knew that Rose was tinkering with that bread, and I think her recipe is actually a little easier to follow than the original one. It's such good bread!

6. No page in the framework is appropriate for XYZ.
Before adding to the framework at the higher level, think harder if there is not a place where topic XYZ could fit. If there is not even a partial fit and topic XYZ is related to the panotools, edit the framework itself.
