Carabiner basics
The carabiner is an essential link in any vertical equipment kit. It is very strong when used correctly, but can break or come open if misused. Understanding the strengths and weaknesses of carabiners allows the user to make the most suitable choice for each application.
- Carefully read the Instructions for Use used in this technical advice before consulting the advice itself. You must have already read and understood the information in the Instructions for Use to be able to understand this supplementary information.
- Mastering these techniques requires specific training. Work with a professional to confirm your ability to perform these techniques safely and independently before attempting them unsupervised.
- We provide examples of techniques related to your activity. There may be others that we do not describe here.
A carabiner is designed to be loaded on the major axis, with the gate closed and the sleeve locked.
Only the strength rating for the major axis with gate closed is suitable for the loads sustained by a carabiner in vertical activities.
Loading a carabiner in any other way can be dangerous.
Examples of dangerous carabiner loading
• The risks associated with incorrect loading can be reduced:
- by choosing a suitable carabiner (carabiner shape and locking system)
- by using specific accessories (STRING, CAPTIV, TANGA, plastic sleeve)
- by suitable usage precautions (vigilance, monitoring, good initial placement...)
• For each use:
Anticipate the risks of dangerous loading during use.
Position and load carabiners on the major axis, gate closed, sleeve locked.
Monitor your carabiners regularly during use.
• Follow the instructions presented in your carabiners' Instructions for Use
Balance between a carabiner's ease of opening and security of locking
A secure lock reduces the probability of accidental opening in use.
The most secure lock is that of a quick link tightened with a tool, with a near zero probability of accidental opening. But such a lock does not make for efficient operation in the field.
Ease of opening (ergonomics) enables quick and efficient connection and disconnection. In certain situations, this contributes as much to user safety as the security of the lock.
This balance must be finely tuned: the user must choose what is suitable for each type of use. The other parts of this document give details, based on the application, to aid the user in this choice.

Al Jazeera, the Pan-Arab news channel that has struggled to win space on American cable television, has acquired Current TV, Al Gore confirmed Wednesday.
Gore and his partner Joel Hyatt announced the sale in a statement.
"Current Media was built based on a few key goals: To give voice to those who are not typically heard; to speak truth to power; to provide independent and diverse points of view; and to tell the stories that no one else is telling," Gore and Hyatt said.
"Al-Jazeera has the same goals and, like Current, believes that facts and truth lead to a better understanding of the world around us."
The acquisition could extend Al-Jazeera's reach beyond a few large US metropolitan areas, where some people can watch Al-Jazeera English.

Apply a 50/50 mixture of beeswax and any food grade oil such as mineral oil, coconut oil, or any other organic food grade oil. Simply wipe on, let it soak in, then wipe it off and you are done! : Just because a toy has lost some of it's shine over the years it doesn't make it unsafe, so it's totally ok if you don't re-apply a finish.

Bosniaks are an ethnic group living in the Southeastern part of Europe, mainly in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is proposed that their 'genetic roots' are reflective of numerous pre-historic components, especially signatures thought to be 'autochthonous' to the Dinaric region, where the historical Illyrians later appeared.
The earliest known inhabitants of the area now known as Bosnia and Herzegovina were the Illyrians, who spoke a language related to modern Albanian. The Romans conquered Illyria after a series of wars, and Latin-speaking settlers from all over the empire settled among the Illyrians.
In the Seventh Century, Slavs settled in Bosnia, Herzegovina, and the surrounding lands. In 1463 the Turkish Ottoman Empire conquest at that time the independent Bosnian kingdom and it was the beginning of the influence of Islamic Civilization in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Considering the fact that the religious situation in Bosnia-Herzegovina before the Turkish conquest was complex and unclear, the large number of Slav population in Bosnia- Herzegovina converted to Islam. Prior to 1463, Eastern Orthodoxy was probably limited to the upper Drina River valley, which was predominantly Orthodox. The rest of Bosnia was nominally Roman Catholic, with a large segment of the population belonging to an indigenous Bosnian Church (Krstjani). The Krstjani were considered heretics by both the Roman Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church. Modern historians have debated whether the Krstjani were a branch of the Bogomils, a Manichean sect which originated in Bulgaria, or whether they were members of the Roman Catholic church who had acquired some heretical beliefs and influences from Eastern Orthodoxy and fell into Schism. Part of the resistance of the Bosnian Church was political; during the fourteenth century, the Roman Church placed Bosnia was placed under a Hungarian bishop, and the schism may have been motivated by a desire for independence from Hungarian domination. Because of Bosnia's mountainous and inaccessible terrain and its remote location on the borderland between the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches, control by church authorities was weak. Historically it was thought that the Krstjani, who were persecuted by both the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches, accounted for many of the converts to Islam.
Although the Ottomans did not, as a rule, actively seek to convert their Christian subjects to Islam, it is thought that the greater rights afforded to Muslims in the Ottoman Empire motivated Christians to convert to Islam.
As the Ottoman Empire began to contract after the defeat at Vienna in 1683, many Muslim refugees from the lost Ottoman territories in Croatia, Slavonia, Hungary, and many centuries later Serbia found refuge in Bosnia-Herzegovina, and were assimilated into the local Bosniak population.
When Bosnia and Herzegovina was occupied and administered by Austria-Hungary in 1878, and a number of Bosniaks left Bosnia and Herzegovina. Official Austro-Hungarian records show that 56,000 people emigrated between 1883 and 1920, but the number of emigrants is probably larger, as they don't reflect emigration before 1883, and don't include those who left without permits.
Another wave of Bosniaks emigration occurred after the end of the First World War, when Bosnia and Herzegovina became part of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes, known after 1929 as Yugoslavia.
After the Second World War, Bosnia and Herzegovina became one of the six republics of Socialistic Federative Republic of Yugoslavia. In Yugoslavia, unlike the preceding Austro-Hungarian Empire, Bosniaks were not allowed to declare themselves as Bosniaks. As a compromise, the Constitution of Yugoslavia was amended in 1968 to list Muslims by nationality recognizing a nation, but not the Bosniak name. The Yugoslav "Muslim by nationality" policy was considered by Bosniaks to be neglecting and opposing their Bosnian identity because the term tried to describe Bosniaks as a religious group not an ethnic one. When Bosnia declared independence from Yugoslavia, most people who used to declare as Muslims began to declare themselves as Bosniaks.
Most Bosniaks identify themselves with Bosnia and Herzegovina as their ethnic state and are part of such a common nation.
There are around two million Bosniaks living in the Balkans today. The largest number of Bosniaks outside of Bosnia and Herzegovina is found in the Sandzak region of Montenegro and Serbia. The city of Novi Pazar is home to the largest Bosniak population outside of the motherland. There is also a smaller autochthonous population present in Croatia, Kosovo, Slovenia and North Macedonia.
Once spread throughout the regions they inhabited, various instances of ethnic cleansing and genocide have had a tremendous effect on the territorial distribution of their population. Partially due to this, a notable Bosniak diaspora exists in a number of countries, including Austria, Germany, Australia, Sweden, Turkey and the United States. Both within the region and the outside world, Bosniaks are often noted for their unique culture, which has been influenced by both eastern and western civilizations and schools of thought over the course of their history.
Being part of Europe and influenced not only by the oriental but also by western culture, Bosniaks are considered to be some of the most advanced Islamic peoples of the world. The nation takes pride in the melancholic folk songs "sevdalinke", the precious medieval filigree manufactured by old Sarajevo craftsmen, and a wide array of traditional wisdoms that are carried down to newer generations by word of mouth, and in recent years written down in numerous books.
National heroes are typically historical figures, whose life and skill in battle are emphasized. These include figures such as Gazi Husrev-beg, the second Ottoman governor of Bosnia or Alija Djerzelez, an almost mythic character who even the Ottoman Sultan was said to have called "A Hero". Old Slavic influences can also be seen, such as Kulin Ban who has acquired legendary status. Even today, the people regard him as a favorite of the fairies, and his reign as a golden age.
Most Bosniaks are Sunni Muslim, although historically Sufism has also played a significant role among them.
For many Bosniaks, Islamic identity has more to do with cultural roots than with religious beliefs. Even among most religious Bosniaks, there is a disdain for religious leaders exercising any influence over day-to-day life. Bosniaks are no different than other Muslims in that they view Islam from the foundation that is their culture.
The tragedy of the Bosniaks has been vividly portrayed to the world by the media. The destruction of towns and villages, expulsion of their inhabitants, systematic looting, and raping of women have left deep scars and an abiding hatred between communities that once lived together and even intermarried.
A particularly disturbing occurrence happened in July 1995, when Serb troops under general and war criminal Ratko Mladic occupied the UN "safe area" of Srebrenica in eastern Bosnia, after which around 7,000 Bosniak males went missing.
Today many of the Bosniaks are war refugees in the Western countries. They still speak Bosnian, and maintain a cultural and religious community and visit their mother country regularly.
The Bosnians are one of Europe's least evangelized peoples. Although there are missions agencies currently working among the Bosnians of Bosnia-Herzegovina, very few have accepted Christ. Prayer is the key to reaching them with the Gospel.
Ask the Holy Spirit to soften the hearts of Bosnians toward Christians so that they will be receptive to the Gospel.
Pray that God will grant wisdom and favor to the missions agencies that are currently working among Bosnians.
Ask the Lord to call people who are willing to go to Bosnia-Herzegovina and share Christ.
Ask God to encourage the few known Bosnian believers in this region.
Pray that God will meet the physical, spiritual, and emotional needs of Bosnians.
Ask the Lord to raise strong local churches among Bosnians.
Ask God to raise prayer teams who will begin breaking up the soil through worship and intercession.

Voting Update: This One's For John
Monday, January 12, 2009
It has come to my attention that there's a bit of controversy brewing over at The Weblog Awards in regards to the number of votes Cake Wrecks is receiving there. Why? Well, I think this has something to do with it:
Yes, within mere hours of my post asking you to vote, Wrecks was catapulted into a hefty lead as thousands of you did exactly that. However, what I see as an outpouring of loving support from you loyal readers others see as possible fraud. Apparently there are those who find it hard to believe that a goofy cake blog could garner such support - so much so that there is now a discussion on TWA's boards where accusations are flying hot n' heavy. (Although I must say that TWA moderator Sean is handling it extremely well.)
Now, personally this little "issue" doesn't bother me. I know that about 48,000 of you read this blog every single work day, and since The Weblog Awards allows you to vote once a day those numbers are not unreasonable. However, my darling, dear husband is, shall we say, "affronted". He seems to see this as a point of honor which must be defended. How? By doing it again, of course!
That's right, so in case you haven't already, please, for the sake of my dear affronted hubby John, go vote again for Cake Wrecks. Let's show those negative-Nancy-nincompoops that it doesn't take a hacker or automated scamming whichydoodles to get a landslide victory at The Weblog Awards; it just take a kick-a$$ blog audience. This is the last day of voting, so let's go out with a bang, shall we?
To kick a$$, CLICK HERE.
Oh, and not to beat a dead horse or anything, but could one of you nominate Wrecks in the more appropriate category of "best humor blog" or "best new blog" over at the Bloggies? Nominations close today at 10pm EST. Thanks!

Um...that "your welcome" in your intro..that was an intentional, self-referential bit of irony, right?

In your face negative-Nancy-nincompoops!!

I voted for you every day and I'd testify to it!
- January 12, 2009 at 9:01 AM
Psst... "you're welcome."

Aww...I like being a henchman. It's the only time I can really justify doing "walk this way" jokes. (Yeah, that's right, I made a Young Frankenstein reference.)
That's an insane number of votes. But if you're seeing 48,000 people on the site per day, that's probably not even close to all of the people reading. After all, if I'm not commenting, I don't click out of my RSS reader and I imagine many others don't either.
You've got a very large, devoted following, now if only you could use them for something other than getting votes, like seizing power. Oh, sorry. Back to thinking like a henchman again. - January 12, 2009 at 9:03 AM

Congrats on the landslide! I think it's funny when people at other blogs get all worked up over awards like these when another blog takes a noticeable lead.
The same thing happened on another award site when Wil Wheaton took offense that Rosie O'Donnell was whomping his butt in the Best Celebrity Blog category. He acted like it wrecked the whole experience for him, and later withdrew his blog from the running (I think he claimed he didn't want to support the commercial nature of the award site, as his official reason for pulling out). Interestingly, I notice his blog has a big lead in this contest this year...
Anyhow, to all the naysayers... come join us at Cake Wrecks, and see what all the fun is about. That's it... eat the frosting... become one of us... - January 12, 2009 at 9:03 AM
"Your welcome"?????
Oh Jen, say it isn't so! - January 12, 2009 at 9:04 AM
In the spirit of cake wrecks grammar, in your opening sentence for this blog, you say:
Greeting, Wreckies! (Yep, I've upgraded you from "henchpeople". Your welcome.)
My welcome what? :) - January 12, 2009 at 9:05 AM
Love the blog, but have we learned nothing from the wreck-tasticness of this site? The opening of today's blog: "Your Welcome."
I'll let you ponder the grammatic correctness of the contraction of you and are! - January 12, 2009 at 9:06 AM
- The Cheap-Arse Film Critic said...
It's not controversial, it's a vote-getting technique, and it clearly worked. I love it when people complain that democracy works TOO WELL.
- January 12, 2009 at 9:07 AM
Nominated, baby!
allison - January 12, 2009 at 9:09 AM
Sounds like jealousy from the LOSERS!! I enjoy checking cake wrecks everyday,it is one of those sites I get a kick out of. Yes, I vote almost every day for Cakewrecks. I come here for the laughs I get.
- January 12, 2009 at 9:11 AM
- Rational Scientific Economist said...
Seriously some people will complain about the most insignificant thing at the slightest opportunity.
Awards of this nature are just popularity contests. If people really liked it, many will vote. If one person REALLY liked it, they might make sure it won at all costs.
Sean does have a sensible head on his shoulders and Cake Wrecks is awesome sauce...keep up the good work ;) - January 12, 2009 at 9:12 AM
As much as I apprecite being upgraded from a henchperson to a wreckie...
It should have been "you're welcome" (Not "your welcome"). - January 12, 2009 at 9:13 AM
I (placing hand on Bible) have voted EVERY SINGLE DAY! It is my duty to support this blog in anyway I can.
Voting again now... - January 12, 2009 at 9:15 AM
- Sylvia said...
Well, I voted when you initially posted about the competition. I just went back to vote again and it tells me I already voted within the last 24-hours. Some sort of time warp? :P
- January 12, 2009 at 9:15 AM
So that you don't end up a 'wreck' yourself, it should be 'You're welcome', not 'Your'. Otherwise I love the blog!
- January 12, 2009 at 9:16 AM
I nominated you for most humourous, mkay???? :)

It's working now, but S>L>O>W>L>Y. I think it's choking on cake.

Intresting - I voted for you on the day you originally posted, and haven't been back since. But when I followed the link today I got a "you have voted within the last 24 hours" message.
- January 12, 2009 at 9:21 AM
This is what they get for mis-categorizing CakeWrecks. Humor blogs will always have more readers than food blogs, and their readers are much more likely to vote than the, um, epicurious. THAT'S the reason for the ridiculous difference in votes. The awesomeness of us readers is just a contributing factor. :)
- January 12, 2009 at 9:22 AM
Never voted over at The Weblog Awards before but as a show of solidarity this morning I went over and clicked my support, you deserve it!
- January 12, 2009 at 9:27 AM
- Eternal Lizdom said...
Another option to prove your goodness would be to ask everyone to give ONE vote on ONE day for one of the other sites. Personally, I'm totally hooked on Foodie at 15 (now 16) and would love to see everyone give a vote to him and thrust him into second place.
You're right- this blog ISN'T a food blog, it is a humor blog. Few come here to learn about cake decorating- we come to laugh. - January 12, 2009 at 9:28 AM
The voting site isn't loading for me.
Too many people trying to show their support? - January 12, 2009 at 9:28 AM
- Kristin said...
I've been voting for you everyday. And, you are nominated for best humor blog in the bloggies.
- January 12, 2009 at 9:35 AM
- c3 said...
Wow. I'm shocked! They think there's fraud!?!?!?! Idiots.
You know, it would really show them if you picked another blog to tout and had your readers vote for them! One of the slower ones with a lower readership (not Serious Eats or Epicurious -- the latter isn't really even bloggy enough to be nominated!).
Although my loyalty and laughter belong to Cake Wrecks, I'll admit that these awards have exposed me to Foodie at Fifteen, and I'd love to see you catapult him into SECOND place!
I think that would really prove your readership and influence in a more indisputable way.
Whadaya think? - January 12, 2009 at 9:36 AM
- Megan said...
"Your welcome."
Too many Wrecks, I think. Don't fail us now! - January 12, 2009 at 9:41 AM
Well, I'm not surprised at all. I've had a look at some of the competition, and while they're OK, none of them made me bookmark them and come back every day. Personally, I've been casting 2 votes a day for Cake Wrecks (2 different computers). Wreck on.

Sounds like a lot of sore losers to me. This blog is hillarious and deserves to win every award they have! I've voted again and nominated you for a few Bloggies.
- January 12, 2009 at 9:50 AM
Girl, 48,000? I'd say you're the one kicking a$$.
- January 12, 2009 at 9:56 AM
Ah, bwoops,
I'm gonna call the "your welcome" my fault since I asked Jen to write it somewhere around 2 am. Then again, maybe Jen put it there as an ode to Saturday's post and will put it back later. Who can plumb the depths of her mind?
And thank you all again for being so awesome.

Hey, it's not our fault if the other writers don't get their readers to vote for them... A blog with that many people reading and actually RESPONDING to the writer's requests DESERVES to win... all the others? Ninkumpoops

Woot, we appear to have broken their website again going to vote again. I think that proves your point. For the record, I voted several days.
- January 12, 2009 at 10:11 AM
In the gracious & hilarious words of Tina Fey, the pooh-poohers can all "suck it."
I voted every day, too.
Your welcome ;) - January 12, 2009 at 10:21 AM
- Michelle said...
I voted again for you!
It makes me laugh because your % is still about the same if not a bit higher!
Boo to the negative-nancys!! - January 12, 2009 at 10:28 AM
I'm happy to vote for you again Jen, and I did!
It was interesting to read the discussion. I thought John did an excellent job of defending our votes and our dedication the to blog. I am not surprised that Cake Wrecks is off the charts, and even of some are fake votes, you will still win. - January 12, 2009 at 10:36 AM
- Teague said...
I think the number of comments on this post is indicative of the support for your blog. I can see why people might think there was some foul play, but can't they just look at the number of people referred to that URL from here? If someone were trying to stuff the ballot box, you wouldn't think they would take the time to send every request through this site first.
Anyway, that's what they get for putting you in the wrong category. More people read for a bit of humor than a true love of food, so your humorous take on cakes is clearly more popular than "real" food.
Congrats. - January 12, 2009 at 10:38 AM
- kerrie said...
Well I voted every day that I remembered. All those other food blogs are great, but this is the one that is a daily goto.

Voted yet again today and I even registered so I could tell those hootie patooties to bugger off. They obviously don't understand the power of Teletubby poo!
- January 12, 2009 at 10:57 AM
i voted in the beginning and then everyday for 3 days ...everytime i went back after that it said i had already voted in the past 24 hrs. Guess they had already decided to "throw the vote" but too late for them huh? I went to vote just now and i wont show the vote box! its just a blank box...oh well ...we had you at "undeneath that"

Okay, Okay, I'll vote! Geez. Although it doesn't look like you need any help. :P I kinda feel sorry for everybody else. Better watch out they don't find some way to ban you from future contests, just to give the others a chance. Lol.

I love your blog and I read it in my google reader every single day. You keep me smiling and I appreciate it! - January 12, 2009 at 11:12 AM
HAHAHA... Evidence once again that Cake Wrecks is made of much more than just sugar, flour, and eggs... Cake Wrecks is made of WIN!

As one of your faithful readers, I went to vote in the weblog awards when you posted it. But like any good person, I decided that I should at least check out the competition, it's only fair. I was highly disappointed! It could have something to do with a poor category choice ;) I had no problem voting for you, at least twice!
- January 12, 2009 at 11:29 AM
I bookmarked the site and have voted every single day! That's blasphemy. Jen you've got what my sisters calls "hatas"!

Anyone that thinks so little of Cake Wrecks is a "duche".

- Kat said...
The problem is that the people who are concerned are the legions of dedicated (and awesome) fans of Serious Eats, of which I am part. (Is that English?) While I truly love CakeWrecks (I vote for each on alternate days), the confusion arises when you realize that Serious Eats fans love SE just as much as the Wreckies love this site, they're just a different demographic. Serious Eaters tend to be a little older and more food-centric rather than blog-centric. I can see Wreckies dutifully voting every single day, whereas only SE'rs who happened on the site on the day the call for votes was at the top of the page would have known to vote. I definitely think that SE has just as many (if not more only due to its age) loyal fans, which might be why people are so confused as to the skewy results. But in any event, good luck to CakeWrecks =)
- January 12, 2009 at 11:35 AM
BTW that "rocks" guy in the discussion is being quite mean. He even said Jen and Jon found a "need to defend themselves" and called on their readers to go and defend Cake Wrecks! WHAT!?
Someone had an unhappy childhood... - January 12, 2009 at 11:51 AM
I just found your website and was happy to vote after reading your whole blog in two days. My boyfriend now wants a Doctor Who cake for his birthday.

I just read the comments accusing Cake Wrecks of cheating. I was impressed by your husband's response. He did a very good job of expressing what needed to be said in a calm and put together manner.
Also, I've voted for Cake wrecks a few times now. This blog helps get me through my hard stay at home mom days. Thanks for the humor and keep it up! - January 12, 2009 at 12:21 PM

That's crazy that they can't understand the massive Wreckie love your blog has inspired. I've voted once a day, and I'm proud of it (and of your skills!). :)

Nominated for the Bloggies in Humor again.
- January 12, 2009 at 12:24 PM
They're just jealous because they want sprinkles. *nods knowingly*
Anyway, I've voted for you every day...if anything I say that's what they get for mis-categorizing Cake Wrecks as a food blog. Lots of these cakes hardly qualify as food anyway.
That'll teach them. - January 12, 2009 at 12:24 PM
I'm amazed at the hostility (read: jealousy) some people are displaying. Going so far as to claim vote tampering? Yeesh. Cake Wrecks just has more dedicated voters, that's all :D
- January 12, 2009 at 12:32 PM
Oh, goodness...I can't believe that readers of CakeWrecks are the type of nerds to want to script-ize the vote. You're winning fair and square if I'm any indication: I've voted for you every day since you first posted!
- January 12, 2009 at 12:33 PM
- BSH said...
I hardly ever comment on blogs, I usually just read them in my RSS Reader (so I wouldn't be counted in your stats). I just wanted to say I have been voting for you everyday and would step and say so if the paranoids at the Weblog Awards need proof.
It is totally understandable why you have so many votes... I researched many food blogs for my old job and when I stopped I took relief in that I never had to read a food blog again. That is with the exception of Cake Wrecks. I'm hooked! I read it almost everyday! - January 12, 2009 at 12:34 PM

I had trouble getting to the site. I'm pretty sure it's because so many of your fans were trying to vote at the same time, that the site couldn't handle all the TRAFFIC!

LOL! This is a riot. I've been participating in the discussion over there. Cracks me up that the "rocks" guy walked right into the questions about whether he can see something on the servers the rest of us can't. Anyway, the admins have verified that the votes are legit, so any more whining is just that. Whining. There's no passing it off as being "helpful" or "concerned".
- January 12, 2009 at 2:10 PM
I have to admit that I've never voted for a blog before but this time I've voted for this one on a daily basis.

I love your site and have voted for it every time I can. Today th vote site lied and said i already voted but I think it's just jealous of our obsessive following. I am a major promoter of your site to people i know who could use a bit of humor and isn't that everybody?

@ Reverend Ramona: That story about Wil Wheaton is interesting if you hearken back to the ancient, dusty days of blogging, when WW's blog was fairly new and he got his first nomination for a big blog award, and his followers DEVASTATED the voting to the point that everyone *else* felt it was entirely unfair.

83% Yaahahahahahaha! The complainers must have been one of those kids that ran for student government in high school and complained when they didn't get elected. "It's just a popularity contest." Yes. Yes, it is. We are going to win!

I just voted to push the number up one more!! I also went over to the forum and read what was being said. I guess there are some very poor losers out there! The message from your hubby was very nicely done!
- January 12, 2009 at 5:14 PM
Well now I've got my dander up! I've voted the allowable once a day, because I come here once a day and see your reminder (although I rarely post). If they don't want a landslide then they shouldn't 1) mislable a humor blog as a food blog, and 2) allow people to vote more than once.
So tell 'em to put on their big girl panties and deal! - January 12, 2009 at 5:20 PM

That's funny. Serious Eats and Epicurious are the only other ones on there that I've heard of. And this blog is WAY more fun. :)

Clicky click click! Suck on that, haters! (Especially haters with my name. :( )
Oh, and I bought two of your T-shirts the other day. :D - January 12, 2009 at 5:41 PM
Hm, can't seem to get to the site. Perhaps they've gotten so much traffic from here that we crashed it?
- January 12, 2009 at 5:41 PM

A site can be Slashdotted, Farked and Lifehacked - do we add "Wrecked" to that list of adjectives? :) - January 12, 2009 at 5:57 PM

I voted last time and I'll do it again! And I never vote for these things. So there.
Also I'm one of those readers that usually checks in via RSS.
Word verification: somaten.

My sister and I read your blog religiously! It gives us a smile everyday, and a laugh too!
Thanks! - January 12, 2009 at 7:03 PM

It was actually fun watching the counter thing go nuts after I voted, which just proves that I have no life.
- January 12, 2009 at 8:24 PM
"Serious Eats" obviously has no sense of humor - I mean, it's right there in their name. Serious!
- January 12, 2009 at 8:30 PM
Off to kick a$$.
Congrats on the 48,000 reader a day. Wow. - January 12, 2009 at 9:30 PM

Apparently your kick a$$ blog audience is voting with fury because the page won't even load for me! Good luck even if I don't get a chance to vote for you tonight. I did vote at your first request, so I did my duty as best I could. ;)

I read the blog every day, even if I don't comment. I voted once before, voted again today...and I'd do it over and over. Apparently the naysayers don't realize that when a blog is really loved by folks, its readers WANT to support it any way they can.

This is my first time posting, but I felt compelled to throw in my support. I checked out several sites in both food and humor and didn't find anything that held my attention very long. The Foodie at Fifteen blog was interesting, but seemed to cater to the "Serious Eats" demographic. Personally, if I were looking for a recipe, I would go straight to foodnetwork.com to find it. The chances of finding a fabulous recipe for a dish you are planning to prepare on a food "blog" are pretty slim. So inherently the people that will vote for a blog, won't be the people voting for a food site. I visit Cake Wrecks every day for laughs (and hoping none of my cakes show up here!!! lol) I would challenge "rocks" to spend a little time here and I think he would realize the cause of our devotion. Who didn't laugh at the "mohawk-naked-baby-riding-carrots" post?

- The Dean Family said...
I don't usually comment, but I am commenting today to say that I have voted EVERYDAY for Cake Wrecks, because I truly do visit the site DAILY!
Please keep doing what you are doing! You are hilarious! THANKS! - January 12, 2009 at 11:59 PM
- Jeff Geerling said...
The thing is, this blog appeals to a TON of different people; cake-makers, people who like humor, the 'lolcats' crowd, moms who cook, kids who like delicious things... etc.
I will probably never bake a cake in my life, but this blog is well worth reading and subscribing to, simply because the cakes are that funny. Not to mention CCC's. - January 13, 2009 at 12:35 AM

not only have i voted for you everyday, but i also nominated you. i would imagine that many, many people did that, too.

Got my vote! With a deployed hubs and 3 little kids at home- this place is a necessary daily stop.
Of course it's also turned me into a cake snob but that's okay lol - January 13, 2009 at 2:00 AM
- Candy said...
At first glance without looking at anything else (uh, like the blogs in question...) I can see why it would look fishy.
But once anyone took, a cursory look at CW - even without knowing the number of visitors - just look at the number of comments for each entry. If we assume 10% of the readers comment, which I think is pretty generous. It's probably more like 1% or less. But if you assume 10% of the visitors comment, anyone would easily see CW has a huge following. Since we can vote daily (that seems weird to me, but whatev), it would not be difficult to imagine a huge block of votes going to CW. And the admin has already said the votes check out. Give it up, doubters! :)
Oh, I voted, and I'll keep voting. I only found this blog Sunday and I love it! I am a moderate foodie (love the halfassedkitchen site I found here!), a horrible baker but admirer of cakes, a lover of laughing at spelling and punctuation errors, and someone with an over-active funny bone. So CW appeals to me on many levels. Wreck on! - January 13, 2009 at 9:02 AM
- The Lili Effect said...
BTW, as the Suite 101 writer who interviewed you, I can personally attest to my PVs jumping by several thousand the day you posted the link to our chat. I do not think there is any fraud at all.
however, perhaps next time, they will consider placing you correctly in HUMOR blog instead of FOOD blog.... - January 13, 2009 at 9:57 AM

I like the Denver Broncos/John Elway reference. Maybe you can do Football Theme for Sunday Sweets with the Super Bowl coming up.
- January 13, 2009 at 10:38 AM
I think we crashed the voting site! It won't load...
- January 13, 2009 at 12:10 PM
This controversy will probably lead to cake wrecks getting even more votes, eh?
Unfortunately, there was an error when I tried to vote. I'll try again later. - January 13, 2009 at 2:08 PM

It took forever to load, but Cake Wrecks is up to over 30,800 votes.

- AutumnFire said...
Perhaps cake pics posted by your readers in the Weblog Award forum with Wrecks on them, i.e. "This ones for you, Rock's" or "Happy Voting! Under Neat Rock's"? Oh, use candy rocks, too!
Yes, all misspellings and incorrect grammar is intentional--otherwise it wouldn't be a Wreck! - January 13, 2009 at 4:54 PM

As it turns out, it's okay to say "ass" on the internet. It's not as though using dollar signs is fooling anybody (although it does remind one handily of the people who think it's clever to write "Micro$oft").
- January 13, 2009 at 6:25 PM
It's good you're not taking it personally, this kind of drama happens every year at those awards.

Don't hate the player, player. Hate the game. Hate the game. Lol.
- January 14, 2009 at 12:32 AM
oh boy, i wonder if it was my comment (that never got posted, sigh) about the bloggies that alerted you to them! probably not, but it can't hurt to dream. ;)
i nominated you in every category that fit! best new blog, best humor blog, best food blog, nest topical blog, and weblog of the year! :) - January 14, 2009 at 11:50 AM
- January 15, 2009 at 5:49 PM
What a silly argument! I come over every so often to see your finds and read the blog. Great fun. I wasn't over in time to help out by voting as I don't visit every day (though I would have voted for you anyway). You totally deserved to win. Thanks for the fun.
- January 15, 2009 at 8:14 PM
I did nominate you over at the Bloggies for "best humor blog" well before you even posted this request. I hope you get it too.

I excitedly clicked over to re-cast my vote, only to find the voting was over on Tuesday. Oh well, Cake Wrecks readers proved it again, so I was happy to see the results!!!

What's a Wreck?
What's a Wreck?
A Cake Wreck is any cake that is unintentionally sad, silly, creepy, inappropriate - you name it. A Wreck is not necessarily a poorly-made cake; it's simply one I find funny, for any of a number of reasons. Anyone who has ever smeared frosting on a baked good has made a Wreck at one time or another, so I'm not here to vilify decorators: Cake Wrecks is just about finding the funny in unexpected, sugar-filled places.
Now, don't you have a photo you want to send me? ;)

Where's the book?
We don't have any copies of Cake Wrecks for sale here, autographed or otherwise. We decided the shipping and handling costs would be too high to make it worth your while. So instead, buy your copies locally or online and then order personalized bookplates: it's cheaper, easier, and I think even looks a bit nicer.

This was my first go at making real cake donuts (the shortcake ones from yesterday don't count) and I wasn't sure what to expect from the texture. I have to say, they were surprisingly close to what you'd buy at a donut shop, firm and springy but, not too dry. I have a feeling they are best eaten the day made but, that isn't a big deal since you could mix these up and bake then in about 15 - 20 minutes.
Of course, you want to know how they taste. They were very good, sweet but, not too sweet, with hints of vanilla and cinnamon. The beet flavor is there but it is subtle, perfectly balanced with the other flavors. If you served these to someone without telling them they were made with beets, I'm betting they would have a hard time putting a finger on what the flavor is. I should mention Matt thought the cake could be sweeter but, I thought it was totally sweet enough, especially with the glaze.
Glazed Beet Donuts
adapted from the recipe on the Norpro Donut Pan package
3/4 c all-purpose flour
1/4 c sugar
3/4 t baking powder
pinch salt
pinch cinnamon
pinch cayenne
1/4 c chopped, roasted beets
1/4 c milk
3/4 t vanilla
1 egg
1 t shortening
1/2 c powdered sugar
1 T milk
Preheat oven to 325 F. Lightly grease three donut forms in a donut baking pan.
In a small bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and cayenne.
In a small food processor or chopped, purée the beets with the milk. It won't be smooth. Mix into the flour mixture. Stir in the vanilla, egg and shortening. Divide between the three greased donut forms.
Bake for 8 - 11 minutes (mine took all 11) until the donuts spring back when touched. Let cook for a few minutes in the donut pan before removing to a rack to finish cooling.
Once cool, make the glaze by mixing the powdered sugar and milk in a bowl you can easily dip the donuts into. I like to start with the water and add the sugar a little at a time until I get a thickness I like. You may need more or less sugar. Dip the cool donuts carefully into the glaze. Remove to a rack where the glaze can drip off. Let set for a few minutes to harden.
Makes 3 donuts.
Now, how's that for a way to get some more vegetables into your kids?

Pets bring great joy to a family, but they can also be very expensive to care for. Pet insurance gives you the peace of mind that, in the event that your pet becomes sick or injured, your expenses will be covered. As technology has improved in recent years, so has the overall quality of veterinary care. However, these improvements have resulted in higher costs and tougher decisions for pet owners.
The last thing Albertson Barlow Insurance Services wants is for you to have to forgo a potentially life-saving surgery for your family pet, because you cannot afford it. Don't wait until it's too late. Get pet insurance today.
Albertson Barlow Insurance Services offers free, comparative quotes on Pet Insurance from multiple insurance carriers so you can get the best possible rate.

"Thank you for the wonderful service" said Mr Stuart. Our Locking Wheel Nut technicians are always on-hand to help.
Mrs Carrick had the same routine every week, "I always go shopping on a Sunday afternoon on the way to the gym". My car ran into a pothole in Fenton. The car began to veer left and I instantly knew the tyre had burst. On arriving at the gym I realised no locking wheel nut key with the car. The gym manager recommended I call Locking Wheel Nut Remove". A difficult situation became a quick fix by the experienced technician, thankfully the wheel wasn't damaged….top marks to the team at Locking Wheel Nut Remove.
A Voluntary Worker was driving to her first shift in Fenton and before going there she was going to a garage for 2 new tyres.

Manuscript of Wallowa River and Valley
- Mss 6031-B
- Series
- 1953
Part of J.H. Horner Papers, 1889-1985
An unfinished typescript with hand corrections of J. H. Horner's work, Wallowa River and Valley. The manuscript details the history of the Wallowa Valley region in northeastern Oregon from approximately 1805 through 1950. The document includes extensive details on the origins of many place names in the region. The manuscript also includes a history of the Nez Percé people and their cultural traditions which Horner wrote in collaboration with Otis Halfmoon. Topics covered in the manuscript include Chief Joseph and the events of the Nez Percé war of 1877, settlement of the Wallowa Valley region, and local participation in World War I and World War II. John Harland Horner (1870-1953) was born in Kansas City, Missouri, and moved to Enterprise, Oregon, in 1911. He served as Wallowa County's deputy assessor from 1918 to 1924, before being elected county assessor in 1924. Horner also had a long-standing interest in the history of Wallowa County. For more than thirty years, he collected historical information and interviewed most of the area's early settlers and local Native Americans.
