Jeffco Sheriff's Deputies begin search for two car jacking suspects
JEFFERSON COUNTY, Colo. - Two suspects in an armed carjacking on Lookout Mountain were captured Wednesday afternoon after a short-lived, but brazen crime spree.
Around 4 p.m., a sheriff's deputy reported "shots fired" from the suspects after he spotted a carjacked blue Subaru Outback heading up Mount Vernon Canyon Road on Lookout Mountain, west of Golden, Colo.
The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office described the suspects as a white male and female. The deputy radioed that the male suspect was armed with a rifle and a handgun, which was confirmed by the sheriff's office.
AIRTRACKER7 arrived over the scene and video from our chopper showed the suspect armed with a rifle and a handgun. He was walking nonchalantly through the woods, dressed in dark jeans, a black tank top and dark baseball cap when he was first spotted by the helicopter. A blonde-haired woman could be seen walking behind the man. She was dressed in black and appeared to be carrying a black backpack. She became separated from the male suspect and was taken into custody without incident at 4:15 p.m. by a sheriff's deputy along U.S. Highway 40 near Mount Vernon Road.
The male suspect walked into a highway maintenance facility at Highway 40 and Rockland Road and entered the cabs of two dump trucks, before walking away and onto Rockland Road.
At 4:17 p.m., the suspect could be seen entering a nearby home and then driving a stolen car out of a closed garage, smashing through the garage door. The suspect drove to the end of a dead-end road next to Interstate 70 and then tried to stop vehicles on the interstate by waving his rifle at drivers. Several vehicle slowed. That's when a Jefferson County motorcycle deputy engaged him, pointing his service revolver at the gunman who continued to try and stop passing cars.
The suspect laid down his rifle but refused to surrender, running down the interstate -- away from the pursuing deputy. He was finally grabbed and captured by the motorcycle deputy and thrown to the pavement. Stunned motorists walked up and helped subdue the suspect before other deputies arrived to secure the scene.
The motorcycle officer who took down the suspect was later identified as Deputy Fred Haggett, a veteran of the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office.
Traffic was backed up for at least a mile in the westbound lanes of the interstate. The westbound lanes were then closed at Genesee at 4:30 p.m. and reopened an hour later.
Later video from AIRTRACKER7 showed deputies talking to a man and woman in front of the smashed garage on Rockland Road and another apparently related scene with deputies talking to a man next to a pickup truck that appeared to have been driven across grass where it stopped next a paved road.

5 Awesome Wedding Photography Locations in Austin
I've been an Austin wedding photographer for the past 10 years and one reason I love working in this city is that it has a little bit of everything for every taste. Great architecture, fascinating history, lush naturescapes, wide-open vistas, gardens, riversides, city skylines—whatever backdrop fits our personality, Austin has something to offer.
Here's my list of the top spots to take wedding and engagement photos. Some of these will be fairly obvious, such as The Capitol, but hopefully some will be a little less well-known and provide you with some inspiration to get out there with the camera and get busy! This list is clearly not exhaustive, and surely some of you will come up with additional great spots around here that I left off the list. Feel free to add them in the comments.
In no particular order:
1. The Texas State Capitol
The Capitol building is a massive structure made of pink granite and stands 14 feet taller than the US Capitol. It is very well-known and often-photographed. I have been there several times and I enjoy it immensely. You can also get into the House and Senate Chambers for some cool shots, if they aren't in session. It is worth a visit and the nice thing is that they don't mind if you are toting around a tripod. The forum of the Capitol is packed with Texas heritage and is a great place to photograph couples who want to bring out their home state.
2. The Austin Skyline
Almost any city skyline is going to be a great backdrop for photos. Austin's is particularly great because, as a photographer, you have a very clear view of aspects that make the city unique. I think the best place to photograph the city skyline it is from the Lamar Street Bridge—not the pedestrian bridge but from the bridge for cars. It is a little tight but you can stand there with a tripod and get a great photo of the skyline with the river running next to it. Come at night for an extra cool shot with all the city lights twinkling and reflecting on the water.
3. Zilker Botanical Gardens
Zilker is basically Austin's version of NYC's Central Park. This 30-acre park is divided into several sections, including a rose garden and a Japanese Garden, which means that it's incredibly versatile for photos. For me the highlight is all the flowers you can find there, particularly in springtime, as well as the waterfall.
4. The Arboretum
The Arboretum is technically a mall located in North Austin, but it's also a great photo location for both couples and families thanks to the small park located just behind Amy's Ice Cream. Couples love having a naturescape that's not too far from civilization. Kids love that there are giant stone cows to sit on. Parents love that there are modern amenities like bathrooms nearby in case kids need it.
5. South Congress
Hotel, urban scenes, cupcakes—you name it and South Congress has it. South Congress is one of my favorite photography spots simply because it's packed with a wide variety of stores, meaning that the possibilities for props, urban backdrops and things to do with couples are practically endless. SoCo is also one of my favorite places to take families. Let's be honest—sometimes the best way to pacify a cranky child is with a little bit of ice cream.

Up until now, you've been your child's playmate. Together you've conquered Candy Land, eaten more than your fair share of mud pie and built the most excellent block towers this side of the Mississippi. But as your preschooler gets older and starts attending school or daycare, her social circle will expand and playdates will become a vital part of her life.

Playing with friends at a playdate isn't just about having fun – although that certainly is important. Your preschooler's first friendships and play dates will teach social skills – how to share, taking turns, and even some conflict resolution.

To get the most out of your preschooler's play dates, here are some guidelines:

Listen Carefully

When your child comes home from school or daycare, does he mention the same name over and over again? Ask if he would like to have his friend come to play or if there are other kids in his class that he'd like to play with. You can also ask the teacher if there is another boy or girl that your child has taken a shine to.

Smaller Is Better

When hosting a playdate, invite just one friend. An odd number almost always ensures that someone will be left out. And keep the get-together short – between one and two hours is more than enough time.

Keep it Familiar

If this is your child's first playdate, have it in your home or at a place where your child has been before. If the playdate is at someone else's home, stay. Your presence will make your child feel more comfortable, particularly in case of a conflict or if your child gets nervous without you. Likewise, if the playdate is being held at your home, invite the other child's parent or caregiver to stay or at least let her know she's welcome to hang out until her child settles in. (Who knows, you may even get a new friend out of it!)

Plan Ahead

Before your child's friend comes over, talk to your preschooler about what she would like to do with her friend. If the television and computer are off limits, tell her so. If you think there is a particular toy your child might not want to share, put it away. Ask your child what snack she'd like to serve.

Be Present, But Be Invisible

Once your child's guest has arrived, don't just leave them to it. Suggest some activities that will break the ice and get things going. Help set up some toys or a game that they'd like to play. Once the play date is progressing well, back off a little but be available in case someone needs you. If the kids aren't playing together, don't worry. Parallel play – where kids play next to one another without interacting – is normal at this age.

Conflict? Let Them Work it Out

If a squabble arises, unless it gets physical, stay out of it. Small conflicts rarely last and chances are the kids will be able to work it out on their own. If a disagreement escalates to something physical, it's time to step in. Explain that kind of behavior is not acceptable and help the kids come up with a compromise. If necessary, divert them to another activity or a snack.

The End Is Near

About 20 minutes before the playdate is scheduled to end, let the kids know that it will be time to clean up clean up soon. With 10 minutes left, start the putting away process. If your announcements are met with reluctance, give them something to look forward to – "It seems like you two had a lot of fun playing dress-up. Maybe next time you can pretend to be princesses." If they still drag their feet, have a clean-up race – set a timer and see who can pick up the toys the fastest. But be realistic – preschoolers can certainly help clean up the mess but probably won't be able to do it all themselves.

When my commentary on Khmer food slows down, I'm usually out of Cambodia and this time it was in the only Indochinese country described as sleepier than Cambodia: Lao PDR. Thanks to having some friends in Vientiane, I did get to eat a fairly representative sample of the local delicacies.
Sticky rice (kao neaw) is both self explanatory and ubiquitous as the national staple. The process to make it seems complex enough that it involves a fire, a purpose-built basket and constant attention; akin to the early years of ballooning but with slightly less chance of setting yourself on fire and crashing back to earth in a ball of fiery death. It might give the rice a stickier and more fibrous texture, but I think that I would rarely have the time on my hands that it takes to prepare.
In more proof that if you can grind up an animal, you can eat it, laap, the ever-popular minced meat salad, is available in every imaginable meat. I managed to fit in laap in five different ground animal flavours but none in the evil non-meat equivalent, tofu laap. Whenever I attempt to build myself some laap, I can never balance the chili/lime/galangal/fish sauce properly, and so every Laotian laap I ate fills me with both shame and meaty deliciousness. I heard tales of iguana laap but had no success in finding a local lizard grinder or procuring myself an iguana. The local Laos green papaya salad (Tam Mak Hung) is spicier than our Khmer variety and there also seems to be a marked preference to go a little crazy on the fish sauce.
For me, the two main drawcards of Luang Prabang seemed to be the town's World Heritage listing and a regionally famous snack made from dried sheets of river algae that comes with a buffalo rind and chili sambal.
From the early part of the dry season, northern Laotians harvest river algae (kai) that they then proceed to sun-dry before pressing into flat sheets with sesame seeds and local vegies. The resulting algae paper (kaipen) tastes like the kelp wrapping from a sushi roll, deep-fried; and the traditional accompanying paste made from ground chili and buffalo rind tasted much like someone had set a fistful of large, sliced rubberbands alight in my mouth with roughly the same texture. Before coming to Laos, I was told that it was "a great snack to eat with Beer Lao" which I should have translated as "a great snack to eat when incomprehensibly drunk". The buffalo isn't all bad, as Laotians also make an excellent buffalo sausage.
As for restaurants:
Moon The Night – Not a suggestion for an lewd gesture aimed at the evening but a local restaurant overlooking the Mekong, upstream from the main strip. Like every good local Indochinese restaurant, it blares local pop music at earbleed levels. Their duck laap was excellent although padded out with various offal. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
The strip of local restaurants that line the Mekong roughly opposite the Lane Xang Hotel seem to vary in quality with the weather, but are good for a cheap sticky rice and laap fix.
My brother, who worked in Laos for a while recommended me…
KhuVieng Fried Chicked (KFC). If this doesn't make a phnomenon write-up, the universe is in a state of imbalance. The crispiness of the chicken puts the Colonel to shame, yet the establishment is somehow notably absent from my edition of the LP. It's near a large tree about three-quarters of the way down Khu Vieng street if you're heading towards the Australia Club. It's on the right and easy to miss, so take your time.
…but I couldn't find it in several very slow passes on my hired Suzuki Viva. However, just off Khu Vieng is a great spring roll store aptly named The Spring Roll Store. Their spring rolls aren't bad but the mystery rice salad that accompanies the rolls is excellent. There are two ingredients in it that I can't identify and I'll mail a can of your choice of Klang to anyone who can speak enough Laotian to find out. If you're in Phnom Penh, I'll drop it by your house in person. One of the components is deep-fried (a spring roll part? Deep-fried leftovers?) and the other is a vegetable (Green papaya? Mango? Cucumber?).
JoMa Café – So barang that it physically hurts but that didn't stop me from visiting both the Vientiane and Luang Prabang outlet for Bagel Eggers (17000 kip, above; no relation to David) and good espresso with choice of local or imported beans. I'm on holiday. Your Cambodian breakfast bobor is no match for the true might of a bacon sarnie and decent coffee. Location: On Sethathirath Road in VT; Near cnr of Sisavangvong Rd and Setthatihilat Rd in LP
Luang Prabang Night Market – At the end of the night market (opposite the daytime Handicraft Market), a small alleyway becomes a Laotian street food emporium. Despite being on the way to dinner elsewhere, I did my best to pick up a selection of deep-fried things (a few balls of deep-fried sticky rice coating a nugget of banana, 5000kip for a hefty bagful; spring rolls, 2000kip worth) to eat en route. There were some good sized racks of pork that I would have had a crack at, but thought it might offend my fellow diners if I rocked up with half a side of a pig.
The Apsara – Herbert Ypma's Hip Hotels calls this place "the most chic hotel in Luang Prabang" which I only know because they had two different copies of Ypma's trendspotting tome displayed on their coffee table. Seems to be the only modern place in town that recognises Luang Prabang's period of suzerainty under Jayavaraman VII, at least in name although no Cambodian food from that era on their "Asian fusion" menu. Their $6 steak frites (below) was a cheap, unidentifiable cut but at that price I would be happy to gnaw on a another strip of buffalo. I take my iron where I can get it. Location: Ban Wat Sene, Thanon Kingkitsarath, Luang Prabang.
Are there any Laos food blogs out there? Comments are open.

Medivisor Inc. Signs Revenue Sharing Agreement With PanGenex
Medivisor Inc. (PINKSHEETS: MVSR) announced today that it has signed a revenue sharing agreement for the marketing and sale of LIPIDEME(TM) with PanGenex Corporation (PINKSHEETS: PGXC). PanGenex develops and markets sector leading, patented or patent pending, condition specific nutraceuticals and topical over-the-counter (OTC) drugs and personal care products. Each product is scientifically formulated to address specific health conditions. PanGenex focuses specifically on the cardiovascular health segment.
The terms of the Agreement call for the companies to pool collective resources for the marketing and sale of LIPIDEME(TM), a synergistic blend of ingredients designed to lower cholesterol four ways. The American Heart Association's scouting report on coronary artery disease identifies high cholesterol as one of the most important risk factors for cardiovascular health. The AHA estimates that nearly 140 million Americans have either borderline-high or high cholesterol, as determined by a blood test called a lipid panel. In 2003, approximately 22 million people took a medication to try to lower their cholesterol. LIPIDEME is positioned as an all-natural product to address high cholesterol from a dietary and genetic standpoint.LIPIDEME is formulated with pharmaceutical grade fish oil that is over 86% pure Omega-3s; the highest content available without a prescription for heart, mental, joint and skin health. The Omega-3s in LIPIDEME are molecularly distilled and tested to ensure that there are no detectable levels of Mercury, PCBs, or other toxins or heavy metals. In addition to the purity of the Omega-3s, PanGenex has formulated LIPIDEME to include Phytosterols, a plant sterol that inhibits the absorption of cholesterol in the digestive system, tocotrienols, a form of Vitamin E which inhibits the formation of the enzymes that create cholesterol in the liver and CoQ10, a powerful antioxidant for muscle energy, specifically cardiac muscle.
"We are excited to partner with Medivisor for assistance in bringing LIPIDEME to the market. We also believe that this collaboration will allow us to open the product to international expansion and provide our practitioners with a valuable communication resource in taking advantage of the Medivisor network," stated Jeff Roman, President and CEO of PanGenex Corporation.
Medivisor Inc. CEO Dino Luzzi added, "We are very pleased that PanGenex has selected Medivisor to market and sell LIPIDIME. Under this agreement our main objective will be to contribute to the sales growth of LIPIDIME through both US and International distribution channels. This will also drive further revenue and profits for Medivisor."

President's Message
had a special phone call one afternoon this
month. I was working on one of the many projects which occupy my
time. My daughter-in-law was running errands and called to tell
me about the beautiful view she had of the surrounding
landscape. Well, her call lifted my day.
Without thinking
we go about our daily tasks not taking a moment or two to delight
in our surroundings. I love the sound of a child's voice, the laugh of
a friend, hugs from my sons or the quiet pleasure of a sunrise.
There is so much to be thankful for...yet we often don't take the time
for reflection or for sharing what delights us. I am thankful
for the phone call which brightened my day.
Our children benefit when
they see adults who delight in simple pleasures. Often their
lives are as busy as ours. Our guidance in helping them to reflect on
the beauty that surrounds them helps to balance what might be a hectic
day or time. They learn to quiet their minds and allow pressure
to flow away.
Thanks to each of you for
your time and participation in online learning. We appreciate
hearing from you. We are especially thankful for the efforts of
our students who continue to surprise
us with their growth, development and perspectives on what they are

Aerin is the
only child of the king of Damar, and should be his rightful
heir. But she is also the daughter of a witchwoman of the North,
who died when she was born, and the Damarians cannot trust her.
But Aerin's destiny is greater than her father's people know,
for it leads her to battle with Maur, the Black Dragon, and into
the wilder Damarian Hills, where she meets the wizard Luthe. It
is he who at last tells her the truth about her mother, and he
also gives over to her hand the Blue Sword, Gonturan. But such
gifts as these bear a great price, a price Aerin only begins to
realize when she faces the evil mage, Agsded, who has seized the
Hero's Crown, greatest treasure and secret strength of Damar.

Realize that much that
is new in the world arises as a consequence of felt needs and
problems. Why these feelings arise, no one can explain as of
today. But that they do arise is demonstrated by the artist
or author who feels compelled to paint or write in his particular
way whether or not it conforms to what is assumed to be good by
his critics.
There may be the
writer who fills pages and hides them away or feels obliged to
publish his own work or the musician who composes despite the
jibes and insults of his audiences when first hearing the
performance of his work. These are creative urges that
continue with or without an acceptance by society.
Perhaps the
long-sought-for acceptance comes years after the artist has
struggled to win recognition. For the behavior of certain processes
in the environment does so not because someone else has structured
the problem, but because he has a feeling that he can approach it
differently and that it must be done. The inner compulsion
of human beings, often working against strong opposition, seems to
be an individually felt need that has not been explained but
persists and should be recognized as one aspect of

About Phonics
my early years of teaching, I tried hard to teach phonics rules but I
never understood why my favorite rule, "When two vowels go
a-walking, the first one does the talking," didn't seem to help
my students read better. In a graduate course I was presented
with research about phonics rules and was shocked to find that many of
the rules I was teaching were only true fifty percent of the
time. It was at that point that I stopped chanting those
rules that are taught as part of a spelling program to older children
can often help them as spellers. Another revelation I had as a
teacher was that after a student can read independently, there is no
more need for the study of letter-sound correspondences. Reading
authorities have written that children don't need phonics instruction
after second grade. Each year, I test more than one hundred
students who are experiencing difficulty as readers and I've found
that many of these students have had so much phonics instruction that
they believe reading is merely sounding out words. These
students need to learn to use semantics and syntax rather than just

Make Family Time =
Learning Time
In today's hectic world,
families often spend more time apart than together. This is why
it is important to devote some individual time to each child every
day. In addition, spend time together as a family. Here
are some activities that will bring your family closer together...and
set the stage for better learning.
Plan activities the
whole family can enjoy. You might try a picnic in the park;
a trip to the zoo; a visit to an art gallery; or an afternoon
spent fishing. These family activities can broaden your
children's interests...and add to their intellectual stimulation,
imagination, and academic achievement.
Take a walk through
your neighborhood at least once a week. Talk about what you
see...or about anything that's on your child's mind. These
walks will become especially important as he grows older.
Establishing the habit of communication when your child is young
can build bridges that will promote talking and listening when he
reaches the teen years.
Make reading
special. On a winter evening, pop some popcorn and snuggle
up together with a book. Or, during the summer, plan a
reading picnic under the stars. Give your child a book by a
favorite author for a birthday or holiday gift.

Biting - Act of Aggression
or Mark of Frustration
Biting tops the list of
reasons for expulsion from day care and nursery school, according to
the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. On the
spectrum of bad behavior, which includes hitting, hair-pulling,
kicking and plain old meanness, biting is considered extreme.
There are health risks to biting, particularly when skin is
broken. Myths about the transmission of AIDS have heightened
anxieties about an already-feared behavioral problem.
In most of us, the very
idea of biting....and blood and saliva...evokes a visceral
response. We're repulsed by an act of aggression that seems
feral, almost animalistic, and simultaneously undermines a child's
feeling of safety and security as well as parents' impulse to protect
their child from danger.
Most children who bite are
not yet verbal. Infants and toddlers nip and gnaw, like puppies,
eager to explore the world using all their senses. But older
children tend to bite out of frustration, usually because they cannot
express themselves. They bite because they feel powerless.
"Biting is the last
weapon," say child development specialists. "Young children
don't have a lot in their arsenals. Experts agree on one thing:
Never bite a child who bites, in an attempt to "show how it
feels." Research recommends this response:
Immediately remove the
child from the situation.
State clearly that
biting is not acceptable behavior. Ever.
Give the child ways to
feel more in control without inflicting harm, such as helping him
to develop his language skills or placing him in a less
frustrating environment.
The most important step in
dealing with a biter is creating an environment where children can
learn to express their emotions while feeling they have control over
their situation.

text: First off, Micro$oft buys WebTV at a very very high price--especially for a company whose sales have yet to take off (they are coasting but not really growing very quickly) YET Microsoft buys WebTV for $425 million in cash and stock. See http://www.techweb.com/wire/news/mar/0406webtv.html for details Next three stories from Edupage on Digital TV: FCC give away; Micro$oft, Compaq and Intel try to set Digital TV/Net integration standards; Disney/ABC buys Starwave (Paul "the other guy at Micro$oft" Allen's web design company). DIGITAL TV TO RULE THE WAVES BY 2006 The Federal Communications Commission voted to let every TV station in the country use a second channel for broadcasting digital versions of the programming now being distributed in analog format to conventional TV sets. By 2006, all broadcasts will be transmitted in digital form only, and all of the 240 million TV sets now in use in the U.S. will be obsolete at that time. Digital television sets -- which are expected to go on sale late next year --will offer extremely sharp, high-definition pictures on a new wide-screen monitor along with six-channel digital audio systems. For some period of time, the new digital programming will be available only via broadcast TV, and not by cable or satellite television. (New York Times 4 Apr 97) PCs' BIG THREE ENTER DIGITAL-TV FRAY Computer powerhouses Microsoft, Intel and Compaq Computer are still trying to persuade television broadcasters to adopt their technical standards for digital TV, which would emphasize Internet-based information services and interactivity, as well as high-definition picture quality. PC makers are hoping that their intervention will enable the large-screen personal computer to migrate from the den to the living room, eventually replacing the television set as the primary family entertainment device. "Any notion that consumer electronics are not going to get smart is fallacious," says Microsoft's senior VP of consumer products. "We are trying to stretch out a hand to the consumer-electronics and broadcast industries and say, 'We can help you with this transition.'" Computer makers favor a "progressive-scan" monitor technology, while consumer electronics companies have traditionally used an "interlaced" approach. PC makers anticipate the cost of building digital-TV technology into a personal computer to be around $100 to $150. "More people are gong to watch digital TV on the PC because it's going to be built into the architecture," says Compaq's senior VP for technology and corporate development. (Wall Street Journal 4 Apr 97) DISNEY WISHES ON A STARWAVE The Walt Disney Company, which has purchased a controlling interest in Starwave, an Internet publishing company, says the two companies will collaborate on the development of a new World Wide Web site called ABCNews.com that will use the resources of the news division of Disney's ABC television network. The site will be in competition with the Microsoft/NBC and the CNN news sites. Forrester Research analyst Bill Bass says: "TV journalists are not used to thinking 24 hours and the Web operation is a gnat compared to the TV operations. It's hard to justify changing the operation of your TV news gathering operation to fit the whims of a very small online population." (Financial Times 4 Apr 97)

Sony on PS4 HDMI Capture, PlayStation 4 PSN Download Speed, More
Following up on his previous PlayStation 4 updates, today Sony Worldwide Studios Shuhei Yoshida shared details on the PS4, HDMI capture functionality, PSN download speeds and requirements for upgrading games from PS3 to PS4.
From DualShockers.com (linked above), to quote: "The first is on the disk requirement of the upgrade of select games from the PS3 to the PS4 version. Looks like the PS4′s disk drive will have some work to do.
- Jon Haeffele (jj75XP): So for PS3-PS4 game upgrade will the PS3 disc need to be in the PS4 once or will it be every time when trying to play the PS4 version?
- Shuhei Yoshida (yosp): every time
The second tidbit of information is on the recently announced support of video capture via HDMI. Don't expect it for launch, as it will be introduced afterwards with a patch.
- Sagman12 (sagman12PC): Will HDMI capture work on day 1 or is it a patch you guys will release after the ps4 launch?
- Shuhei Yoshida (yosp): the latter
Finally, some good news. The download speeds from the PSN have never been exactly lightning fast. Looks like things are going to improve with the PS4.
- Mike Johnson (Broncosfan1915): Have been trying to download GTAV for the past 4 hours, still not over 30% completed. Hope downloading games is faster on the PS4
- Shuhei Yoshida (yosp): It will be.
How will that happen? We don't know at the moment, but it's quite probable that Sony will invest in increasing the server count of the PSN with the PS4, especially considering that an increase in PS Plus subscribers is to be expected, given its requirement for online games."
From Engadget (engadget.com/2013/09/19/sony-ps4-hdmi-capture-gesture-control/) via Tokyo Game Show (TGS) 2013, to quote: A couple of features we'd hoped to hear more about have been confirmed, and the first is that the PS4 camera will support both voice and gesture control. It's no surprise that the system will take full advantage of the add-on's dual cameras and four mics for people who want to wave at their TVs, but it's nice to have that confirmed.
Second, in a move that will mostly benefit game reviewers and YouTube video walkthrough experts (thanks for your help on these GTA V missions, all of you), the PlayStation 4 will allow unencrypted HDMI output for games. On the PS3 it didn't, treating games the same as Blu-ray movies, so anyone capturing video in HD needed to use component cables.
That's on top of the console's "Share" button that sends clips of gameplay straight to Ustream, Facebook or PSN. Check out our liveblog for everything else discussed tonight including the PS4's mobile apps, indie gaming and Vita TV.
Update: Sony Worldwide Studios head Shuhei Yoshida tells us via Twitter that HDMI capture on PS4 won't be available at the console's launch this November, but "in the future."
- Brad Douglas (kazamatsuri): I think we just announced that we're going to allow video capture of games over HDMI! "Details will follow soon."
- Alex Jebailey (CEOJebailey): did they announce gameplay can be captured via hdmi for ps4?
- Adam Boyes (amboyes): yep, more details to follow down the road
- Shuhei Yoshida (yosp): We announced today that PS4 users will be able to capture their gameplay through HDMI output in the future. We'll update you when ready.
Below is a video on how to start a game with the PlayStation Camera from Shuhei Yoshida, who also states the DualShock 3 is not compatible with PS4 games on PS Vita TV.
It was confirmed at TGS 2013 that PlayStation 4 will work with XBox One's HDMI pass-through port for those curious. The confirmation from Microsoft that the Xbox One will not block the PlayStation 4's video signal comes shortly after Sony revealed that it will not prevent users from capturing video from the PS4's HDMI port.
Shuhei Yoshida talked on what kind of battery life we can expect with the Vita while enjoying remote play, when asked about the processing workload on the Vita, stating the following:
"It's very inexpensive (in terms of processing workload). Just as much as network communication. I don't have precise measurements, but the battery life of the PlayStation Vita will be the same as when playing a game online."
He also reassured users that are worried about the number of buttons on the PS Vita, to quote:
"However, compared to the DualShock 4 the number of buttons on the Vita is lower. Conversely the DualShock 4 has no touch screen. The DualShock 4 allows for basic gameplay on the PS4, but in order to allow you to play enjoyably with the PS Vita's remote play, we're asking developers to offer custom button mapping for the controller."
Finally, he shared his opinion on the remote play experience, as follows:
"Since the screen is very large, with PS vita games of course, but even when it displays PS3 games via remote play. it looks beautiful. Combine that with PS4 games and it will be amazing. For those that have a PS Vita, the value of the console will increase. If you try it by yourself, I think you'll realize there's no better experience."
Update #2: JMQMOfficials (via STAticKY) has now made available a guide on How to Speed Up Your PS4's Internet Connection for those interested!

i just hope the hold on there promise and donot let us wait and down as most future are not available on start they come later with update ..so that make me scare ... as the do the say with psvita and there are realy few game what worth to play on psvita and use what psvita have to offer...
09-21-2013 #3croft72 Guest
Interesting. Being able to finally capture gameplay through HDMI will be a major plus that I have been looking forward to on a Sony system. PS Vita TV is a cool thing in my book with an even better price tag too. And I would have been miserable with that digital download of GTA V dragging that bad.
The idea of it not even over 30% complete and its been past 4 hours scares me. I know many may prefer digital over physical games but as long as the option is there, I will ALWAYS prefer a physical copy over a digital one any day.
(And by the way, upon going to the GTA V midnight release to pick up my copy of the collector's edition, it was like going to a block party! lol...)
09-22-2013 #4shummyr Guest
I just hope it is not like the ps3 where linux is introduced and then taken away.
09-22-2013 #5JeoWay Guest
I'm sure someone will find a way to capture externally before patch
09-22-2013 #6ramaa000 Guest
Good guide
09-22-2013 #7inginear Guest
nice. the game capture via hdmi will definitely be handy for those making videos. with them making it easier i may even make some videos.
09-23-2013 #8moja Guest
The video capture seems pretty neat. I used to record beating old NES games on a vcr.
Get off my lawn!
09-23-2013 #9StanSmith Guest
It will be. $ony love to release a good console with good features then remove them when you are comfortable with them.
They will also release a good console then shortly after start the slow decline of quality and features.
With the PS3-PS4 upgrades what about PSN downloads? Does that mean if you have lots of PSN games they are all dead when you get a PS4 or will you be able to upgrade them to the PS4 versions?
And with the disc versions it still looks like you have to pay for them all again. You already own it but you will have to pay to play it even offline singleplayer mode? NO THANKS.

Dang! so many new things going to come out this year! Too bad I can't afford these things.

Billionaire David Einhorn's dream came true—partially. In his 2012 end-of-the-year letter, the head of Greenlight Capital had identified a potential value opportunity in Vodafone VOD, +0.80% stake in Verizon Wireless. The stock was cheap enough that he believed that the market was undervaluing its asset, and making it likely that Verizon VZ, +0.82% might acquire that minority stake or indeed all of Vodafone itself (and then spin out any assets it did not want).
Einhorn had been recommending Vodafone as early as 2010, and according to our database of quarterly 13F filings his fund owned 1.4 million shares of the stock at the end of Q2. We track hedge funds'13Fs as part of our work researching investment strategies, including our finding that the most popular small cap stocks among hedge funds outperform the S&P 500 by 18 percentage points per year on average (learn more about our small cap strategy), and also to track major investors' positions in individual stocks over time. Other major investors in Vodafone at the end of Q2 included Fisher Asset Management, managed by billionaire Ken Fisher and billionaire David Shaw's large hedge fund D.E. Shaw.
Now Verizon and Vodafone have come to an agreement to sell Vodafone's ownership of Verizon Wireless for $130 billion—which would be the overwhelming majority of Vodafone's current market capitalization of about $160 billion and the majority of its enterprise value of about $200 billion. The stock has reacted by rising to about $32 per share, from a closing price of $29.41 on August 28th.
From a certain perspective, this creates a significant value opportunity in Vodafone stock at the current price. While Vodafone will retain a good deal of the cash portion of the transaction price, its shareholders will receive a combination of cash and stock worth $84 billion. This leaves the market cap of the slimmer, trimmer Vodafone at about $70 billion (before accounting for taxes related to the transaction) with half of that in cold, hard cash.
While Verizon Wireless is the gem asset in Vodafone's portfolio, it also operates communication networks worldwide. The company's European assets recorded about $6 billion in operating profits in the most recent fiscal year (which ended in March 2013) with EBITDA decreasing—and decreasing particularly sharply in southern European markets such as Italy—even without accounting for currency factors. EBITDA did grow moderately in Africa/Middle East/Asia Pacific, finishing the year at about $2.5 billion. If we treat Europe as worth 6x operating income, but the emerging markets as worth 8x, then we would get an enterprise value of $56 billion. Pro forma debt would be about $20 billion, which is about even with the cash currently on the balance sheet. Since half of the stock's $70 billion market capitalization would be cash, the market would then be valuing the assets at $35 billion—a significant discount to the basic sum of the parts valuation.
There's also Vodafone's potential as a dividend stock to consider. We've estimated its market capitalization at about $70 billion post close. While the company will cut its dividend once it no longer has access to Verizon Wireless's cash flow, management has suggested that annual payments would remain over $1 per share. The stock's current price is $32, with over $16 in cash and stock inbound as a result of the deal; therefore, a 6% annual yield even at the reduced dividend seems quite reasonable. In addition, as a telecom stock Vodafone would be less exposed to market conditions than the average company (its current beta is 0.7).
So why is the market not more excited about the Vodafone deal? The reason likely lies in the distrust of company management, and particularly in concerns that they are getting so much cash to play with. Vodafone is known as a not very well run company—note that, as we've said, the vast majority of its market cap is accounted for by a minority stake in Verizon Wireless rather than the assets it manages itself. Investors may worry that Vodafone will invest this cash poorly rather than returning it to shareholders—after all, if that was what management intended then they would simply have made the cash to shareholders a larger portion of the Verizon deal—and therefore destroy shareholder value.
This is a reasonable concern, and certainly investors would prefer a larger cash payout from the deal. Still, Vodafone will be paying an attractive dividend yield post close and the implied market capitalization is a low multiple on the company's operating income from its retained assets. Even applying fairly conservative multiples to the operating income of Vodafone's parts, which we think accounts for a good deal of risks related to Europe, there is a good deal of potential upside here.

One of the universal criticism of a free press is that bad news seems to dominate its pages.
Although that claim is more imagined than real, it is a charge that newspapers cannot dismiss out of hand.
The truth of the matter is that for any newspaper that takes seriously its obligation as a watchdog for the community, much of what it presents each day is unpleasant.
Newspapers do make efforts to champion what is good in the communities they serve, but those efforts are often obscured by the predictable portion of bad news.
The Dispatch could probably reduce its percentage of "bad news'' by half with one simple move: We could stop covering local politics.
That is a measure we are not willing to implement, for reasons we hope are obvious.
So we will continue to cover local politics, even though the climate at such proceedings often resembles the Afghanistan-Pakistan border on a day when everyone is in a particularly foul mood. Our news accounts simply reflect that unfortunate reality.
As presently constituted, local government almost guarantees that readers will be given a steady diet of the petty bickering, childish antics, turf warfare, gross distortions and unsubstantiated charges and counter-charges.
Aside from ignoring local politics altogether, there is one other possible measure that might go a long way in making local politics not only palatable, but far more effective: term limits.
First, and perhaps most importantly, limiting the number of years an elected official can serve changes the dynamic of the job. It purifies the motives of those who seek and hold office. Those jobs do not become careers; they become opportunities to serve the public.
And, when the job is approached from that point of view, there is no turf to protect, no power base to consolidate, no rivals to conquer. With term limits, officials can truly act for the good of us all.
Invariably, when the idea of term limits is expressed, there are some who say that good leaders are hard to find, that term limits deprive the community of leaders whose contributions might span decades.
But we find few examples of this.
We argue strenuously that while there is a vacuum of leadership in our community, there is no shortage of leaders.
They aren't difficult to find at all. You see them everywhere. They are the people who volunteer their time, efforts and insights in our churches, schools, civic organizations and charities. There are many qualified people in our community who have a heart for public service, but no stomach for it, given what it has become.
Term limits change the tone, encourage a sense of collegiality and create an opportunity to bring fresh ideas and new energy into our government.
The problems that face our community as a whole are far more grave than the issues that divide us. A unified effort to meet these challenges is best achieved by leaders who are not consumed by efforts to create and maintain their own personal political fiefdoms.
It's time to bring real leadership to our community by transforming the nature of how our communities are governed.
It's time for term limits.
And that would be good news, for a change.

Need to get those coats off the floor? The bunny can help!
In fact, there's an entire menagerie ready to help keep things tidy.
The source for these adorable coat hooks is Pomme, the superhip kids' outpost in Dumbo, Brooklyn. Whether you go with the rabbit, cat, frog, or cow, each coathanger is about eight inches tall and four inches wide and made of enamel-coated metal with four round hooks. And each one looks just as trustworthy and earnest as the last.
We adore these fine fellows, but keep in mind that while each coat hook is only $12, flat rate shipping is a little high — $15 for orders under $99. At that rate, you might as well pick up a few or see what else Pomme offers. And if it's clothing, you know where it's going to hang. So that's tidy. –Delilah

In Tlingit society, the uncle is the one responsible for providing education and discipline to his maternal nephews.
Juneau Tlingits are meeting that goal with a new state-of-the-art computer lab at the Vocational Training & Resource Center on Hospital Drive. A huge totem pole of an uncle and his two nephews dominates the center of the facility as a symbol of its mission.
Tlingit-Haida Central Council runs the vocational resource center, which is available to Natives and non-Natives.
Plans for the new lab began earlier this year when computer skills instructor Kevin Araki wanted to upgrade the computer lab, center Director Archie Cavanaugh said.
About three months ago, 16 new computers - costing $2,000 to $2,500 apiece - were installed. The computers come with new monitors and modern accessories. Five new stations were added.
Not only do the new computers allow current software to run faster, but they also will allow future software to run quickly, Cavanaugh said.
When the center opened in September 1998, its computer class was one of the most popular, Cavanaugh said. The new lab builds upon that demand, he said.
"It was our main breadwinner and it's become so successful," he said.
On Thursday, Adrian Rusch of Axis Mapping & Graphic Design in Juneau was teaching students how to make maps on their computers.
"This is the best (lab) by far I've had the pleasure to work with," Rusch said.
Environmental specialists from tribal organizations in Southeast were learning how to make computer maps of Alaska, which included toxic waste sites and subsistence harvesting areas, Rusch said. He provided databases, including a CD-Rom of information about the Tongass National Forest.
Knowledge about the status of subsistence harvesting gives Natives a chance to make educated decisions without relying on the government's data.
"To the tribal communities, it's very empowering," Rusch said.
The central council is hosting the map training, said student Kerri Sheakley, an environmental specialist with the council. The organization received an $87,000 federal grant to offer the training.

Learn about Jamestown Community College winter sports, and registering for elective lectures and seminars. Not all recruiting is done like NCAA Division I teams. It's practically impossible for college coaches to watch every player who has expressed interest in their program, so if you get the chance, make a memorable first impression by visiting the campus in person. Finally, check with your major department for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Jamestown Community College Sports information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Jamestown Community College.
Track stars have revealed the secret to developing running speed. Most athletes simply run out of breath long before they need to stop running, because they aren't able to get the oxygen into their muscles fast enough. By taking deep breaths, and building up the supply of oxygen in your blood, you can prevent muscle cramps. As lactic acid builds up, and muscle fatigue sets in, untrained players think they've reached their limit.
Track teams, and well-coached basketball and football teams for that matter, train by sprinting short distances, over and over. It's not fun, but it works. After a few months of training, the lungs begin to process oxygen more efficiently, and players find that they can run long distances non-stop, or sprint for a longer period of time. Students must meet specific eligibility requirements each year to participate in St Catherine University golf tournament. Beyond consideration for Jamestown Community College winter sports, you may think about Monroe County Community College holiday schedule 2017 for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

If you're like many people, you spend nearly as much time with co-workers as you do with family and friends outside of work. Maybe even more. That's why it's worth making the effort to get along well with colleagues. Just like members of a music group, your team will function better if it works in harmony.
Understanding and appreciating other people at work starts with effective communication. If you take time to learn a few key skills, you can interact with people in more constructive ways. These skills can help you:
- Form deeper connections with colleagues
- Improve teamwork
- Be more efficient at decision-making and problem-solving
- Deliver difficult messages in a way that does not damage the relationship
- In other areas of your life such as friendships and significant relationships
Here are some effective communication skills:
Attentive listening
When a co-worker has an issue, focus closely on the person and the emotions around his or her words. Create an environment where it's safe to express an opinion that might be different from yours. Letting someone vent may help him or her feel better, even if a conflict can't be immediately resolved. Don't interrupt. Listen. Feel where your co-worker is coming from. Focus on the content of the work issue and not emotional ones.
Non-verbal cues
Much of what you say is not in your words, but in how you say them. Gestures, facial expressions, tone of voice and posture are just a few non-verbal cues. Open communication is helped by open body language: arms uncrossed, sitting quietly and comfortably, making eye contact.
Managing stress in the moment
If you find yourself in a conflict at work, you can't exactly say, "Excuse me while I go meditate for 30 minutes." Stress-relief tactics should fit the situation. Try a few deep breaths; visualize something calming. Perhaps you need to have the conversation later. Or maybe you can strike a compromise - or agree that you simply have different opinions on the matter. Don't let a stressful reaction make the situation worse. Agree to disagree as long as that doesn't affect your work project.
Remember: Poor interpersonal relationships and lack of support at work are causes of job stress, which can be harmful to your mental and physical health.
Recognizing emotions
Fear of getting laid off, jealousy, feeling overworked or resentment over a previous conflict might color your dealings with another person. Communicate in ways that draw people in. Make them feel recognized and appreciated. Wouldn't you want the same from them? Friendliness begets friendliness.

Unfortunately, this game is currently available only in this version. Be patient :-)

Game size:
Tunnel Runner is a 3D maze game released by CBS Electronics in 1983 for the Atari 2600. It was programmed by Richard K. Balaska Jr. Created in 1983 Tunnel Runner was one of the very first 3D first person view games ever, long before Wolfenstein 3-D. It was one of three games for the Atari 2600 featuring RAM Plus (the other two being Omega Race and Mountain King), where the cartridge itself contained an additional 256 bytes of RAM to supplement the console's 128 bytes.
The game offers two modes of gameplay. The GAME1 mode is a campaign mode, with pre-programmed levels that never change. GAME2 mode generates random mazes for each level.
In the game, the player has a first person view of a maze that he or she has to navigate. The task is to locate and use the exit door of the labyrinth within a certain time limit. Whilst many mazes have multiple exit doors, the player must find the key hidden somewhere in the labyrinth. Once the key is obtained the player can leave and progress to the next maze. However, if the player could not find a way out of the labyrinth within the time limit he has to repeat the level upon finding the exit. At higher levels the available time decreases considerably.

A watershed is a land area that drains rain and other water into a creek, river, lake, wetland, or groundwater aquifer. Water from your neighborhood also enters the watershed through the storm drain system and flows directly to local creeks and the ocean without any treatment. It often is contaminated by pollutants that can be toxic to fish, wildlife, and people.
Stormwater runoff is the water that flows over paved surfaces or landscaping after rain (a storm), irrigation, or other water use which produces more water
Water coming through the landscape can be funneled into dry creek beds with catch basins.
than the ground can absorb. As the runoff travels, it can pick up litter, pesticides, fertilizers, pet waste, motor oil, and other pollutants, washing these substances into our neighborhood creeks and the ocean. Replacing non-permeable surfaces with permeable material, any material that allows water to flow through, greatly helps with absorption and reducing runoff. Materials such as sand and gravel, can be installed in pathways to control runoff and improve water quality by filtering pollutants through the ground. The end result is cleaner, healthier waterways in our community.
1. Clean up outside your home including trash, leaves, yard clippings, and pet waste.
2. Water the yard only as needed and avoid spraying streets, sidewalks, and driveways to prevent water from carrying pollutants directly into storm drains.
3. Divert rainspouts and garden hoses away from paved surfaces. Provide landscaping next to sidewalks and driveways to help collect and filter rain runoff.
4. Control erosion around your property to prevent dirt and debris being carried into the storm drain.
5. Read labels on pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides prior to use and follow instructions carefully. Try Integrated Pest Management (IPM) as a less toxic alternative for yard pest management. www.ipm.ucdavis.edu

4) Tony Blair: November 2003
"If we want to contrast what we have done in the past few years on delivery with what the right hon. and learned Gentleman delivered, let us remember the interest rates at 10 per cent. to 15 per cent., the 1.5 million fewer people in work, the boom and the bust and the borrowing at 8 per cent. of GDP. "
5) Tony Blair: November 1999
"We have the best chance of ending boom and bust in years."

"...examine the legacy that we inherited and what we did. We had boom-and-bust economics and a doubled national debt. "

Now, for all that remains to be done, dwell for a moment on what has been achieved."

"Moreover, for decades we have been prone to far greater swings in the economic cycle than our continental counterparts. It has been boom and bust....Under this Government, there is an entirely new framework for economic management in place "

"We know that they want to turn the clock back, but it would be foolish to turn it back to a policy of boom and bust. "

"On top of that, we have a healthy and stable economy and an end to the boom and bust that characterised the Tory years."
11) Alistair Darling: March 2005
"As I said, there are two approaches—first, a strong economy, stability and helping families or, secondly, the Tory cuts, the undermining of stability, and a return to the boom and bust of the 1990s."

"We will not return to boom and bust. "
17) Gordon Brown: November 2000

18) Gordon Brown: March 2000
"Britain does not want a return to boom and bust. "

The new cover for
As the co-author of the Moon Race thriller Red Moon, I'm naturally pleased that the novel has continued to reach a sizable audience, driven mostly by word of mouth.
Some of you may have run across the new cover for Red Moon shown here. For reasons that escape me you won't see this on the Amazon site, but you will see it on the Barnes and Noble site. I am holding off on updating the cover image here (and on the Luna 15 site where you can learn more than you ever wanted to know about it) because this may be changing yet again soon, and for a reason that I can't talk about yet … though hopefully soon.
Over the last few months, Variance Publishing has hosted on their blog a number of posts featuring their offerings and commentary by their authors, and I was invited to contribute. Stanley Tremblay of Variance gave me permission to repost these here, and today's post is the first of the three I contributed, a question and answer from the publisher about the book, and yours truly.
Authors Are People Too! – Daniel Brenton
Tidings Variance fans!
I hope you had a wonderful weekend and are excited for this, the last, Authors Are People Too! Our final guest is Daniel Brenton, co-author of RED MOON.
Q. What questions have you always wished people would ask you?
A. We managed to finagle a few interviews, a couple of them being by podcasters, which turned into interviews by phone or by Skype. One interviewer asked a question that I felt was really pretty thoughtful, to the point of being innovative: "Is there anything I didn't ask that you wished I had?"
I think we both drew a blank at that point.
I didn't realize interviews could lead to moments of hair-raising astonishment, but this one in particular did. I'll need to set this up a little.
In the book, Dave Michaels used the historical character of S.P. Korolev, the father of (and driving force behind) the Soviet space program, to make the point that the space program was a way to divert attention (and some funding) away from the nuclear weapons race. On the other side of the ocean, he had a collaborator in spirit: most of you probably remember John Kennedy's words that provoked America to throw the gauntlet down before the Soviet Union and challenge it to a duel in the heavens:
First, I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the earth. No single space project in this period will be more impressive to mankind, or more important for the long-range exploration of space; and none will be so difficult or expensive to accomplish.
With this, Kennedy did in fact turn the Cold War into a symbolic war in the heavens, which almost certainly distracted us from our seemingly hell-bent drive for Mutual Assured Destruction.
In the interview I made reference to this theme and specifically to Kennedy's challenge, and managed to get out the sentence: "by doing this, he may in fact have saved the human race." In the final podcast, the interviewer closed the episode by seizing on this sentence and repeating it staccato with several enhancing effects, which, frankly, gave me chills when I heard it.

Would you allow your child(ren) to....
I feel sorry for poor Sally to have such a narrow minded mommy.
Quoting do11face:
Of course!
But I'm not a bigoted asshole.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of those out there.
As long as I have met the parents I don't care. Love your kids, show me I can trust you, and sure, my girls can play :)
Quoting SarahSuzyQ:
I'm completely appalled that this happened to you and to your daughters. I'm very sorry. I want my child to be around adults who are responsible, caring, supportive, and trustworthy. Gender and sexual orientation have nothing to do with that.
I hope you will find more families that treat your family with respect and kindness, and I hope that Sally has a chance to see a bigger world outside of her mother's prejudice and ignorance.
Most definitely. What happens behind closed bedroom doors is none of my or my childrens business. My expectations mirror those that have already been stated. Something that pretty much most every parent expects. That our child is safe, having fun, and that I get to know the parents and have an open line of communication just in case something happens. Lets face it, kids are kids, and do silly things and get hurt. I want my children's friends parent's to feel comfortable calling me and know I won't freak out and vice versa.

Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls with Maple Icing
This recipe has been featured in a post on The Recipe Girl blog: Food Porn Daily and Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls
Yield: 12 cinnamon rolls
Prep Time: 50 min + rising time
Cook Time: 30 min
Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls w/ Maple Icing
These cinnamon rolls from the Food Porn Daily cookbook are perfect for a Thanksgiving breakfast or any fall weekend. Our family thought they were pretty droolworthy. There are quite a few steps in this recipe but don't be afraid... the result is so worth the effort you'll put into making these!
4 Tablespoons salted butter, melted
1/4 cup granulated white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup canned (unsweetened) pumpkin puree
1 large egg, beaten
1/2 cup lukewarm water (105 – 110 degrees F)
1 packet active dry yeast
1 Tablespoon granulated white sugar
3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus extra- as needed
cooking spray
4 Tablespoons butter, at room temperature
2/3 cup light brown sugar
1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
1/4 cup pure grade B maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon salt
1. Spray a non-reactive bowl with nonstick spray. Set aside. Line a 13x9x2-inch metal baking pan with parchment paper.
2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together first 5 ingredients of the dough (through egg) until well combined. Set aside.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together warm water, yeast and 1 Tablespoon sugar. Let sit for 5 minutes until the yeast is frothy and active. If after 5 minutes yeast does not appear active, discard the mixture and start over with a newer, fresher yeast packet.
4. Place flour in a large mixing bowl (or the bowl of a stand mixer). Add yeast mixture and pumpkin mixture to the flour. Stir until ingredients have incorporated into a dough. If using a stand mixer, attach a dough hook and knead on medium speed for 5 minutes. If kneading by hand, turn dough out onto a clean, lightly floured surface and knead for 8 to 10 minutes. The desired consistency of the dough should be soft and just slightly sticky. Add more flour as necessary throughout the kneading process until you achieve the proper consistency.
5. Form dough into a ball and transfer to the oiled bowl. Toss dough around in the bowl to coat all sides lightly with oil. Cover with oiled plastic wrap and a kitchen towel. Place in a warm, draft-free spot. Let the dough rise until nearly doubled, usually 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
6. Roll dough into a 16x10-inch rectangle on a large, lightly floured piece of parchment or waxed paper. While rolling out the dough, make sure it's not sticking to the surface. Lift the dough and sprinkle flour underneath, as needed.
7. Spread a thin layer of butter over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border on all sides. In a small bowl, whisk together remaining filling ingredients. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the butter. Roll dough into a tight spiral- jelly roll style- by rolling the 16-inch long edge closest to you over the filling. Continue rolling dough into a log until the opposite edge is on the bottom. Slice dough into 12 even pieces and arrange in the prepared baking dish cut-side up. Cover the pan with oiled plastic wrap and a kitchen towel. Let rolls rise for 30 minutes in a warm, draft-free area. They'll get puffy and smash into each other as they rise. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
8. Remove towel and plastic wrap. Bake until tops and edges are golden and rolls are cooked through- 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool for at least 20 minutes before icing.
9. Place a baking sheet over the dish of cinnamon rolls. Invert rolls onto the baking sheet and peel away parchment paper. Flip the rolls onto your choice of serving dish. Whisk together the icing ingredients until smooth, then spoon evenly over all of the cinnamon rolls, allowing it to dribble down the sides.
*To create a warm, draft-free place for rising, use your oven… turn on the oven for 30 seconds, then turn it off, turn the light on, and place your bowl inside the very slightly warmed oven. It's a great place for your dough to rise if your oven is not in use.
*Make-ahead tip: Once your cut cinnamon rolls are in the pan, you can wrap them with plastic wrap at this point and refrigerate them overnight. Take them out of the fridge and let them warm up in the morning (at room temperature) and do their rising. Then you can continue with baking.
*These are best the day they're made, but they're also good re-heated the following day.
*Cinnamon rolls store better when they're kept together since the edges will dry out if separated.

I have been reading your blog for 2 years now and love it! Do you think these are better than the Amish Pumpkin Cinnamon Roll recipe that you shared a while back? They are on my to do list of recipes to make and if these are better I'll make these instead. Thanks Lori!
Made pumpkin cinnamon rolls adapted from this recipe and loved them. What a great idea, thanks! The perfect Thanksgiving treat.
Hope you don't mind if I linked my post to your blog.
These were heart racing good!! Added 1/4 c add'l flour for high alt baking. For the icing, I cut out the cream cheese, added splash of bourbon 😉 and cut the pwdrd sugar to 1/2. Less fat , more of a glaze, yum!
These were AMAZING! Not only did the entire family rave about them but they weren't hard to Make. Thanks and happy new year!
Whoa, Lori! You've outdone yourself – these look too good to not be in my face right now!!!
By pumpkin puree do you mean canned pure pumpkin?
These turned out great! A lot fluffier than they appear in the picture! They were a hit! I made mine the day before then popped them into the freezer to get them to stop rising, and then 1/2 hour later put them in the frig for the night. They rose in the morning and were ready for Thanksgiving brunch.
The pumpkin purée that you use is it the big can? How many ounces?
Can these be made in a bread maker? I can not knead the dough by hand but would love to make them in the bread maker
Making these this weekend for family brunch! All the different spices … not just cinnamon. I can already taste them! Love the previous comment about a splash of bourbon in the icing.
