July 2, 2014
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (seminoles.com) – Junior Laure Castelain, the top academic achiever on the Florida State women's golf team, has been named to the All-American Scholar Team presented by the Women's Golf Coaches Association. Castelain has earned a 3.561 cumulative grade point average in finance through the first three years of her career. She enjoyed the best academic year of her career this past year as a junior as she achieved a 3.9 GPA during the fall of 2013 and a 3.7 during the spring of 2014 – the competitive golf season.
Castelain's honor of being named to the 2014 WGCA All-American Scholar Team continues quite an academic role for the Florida State team captain. She was named to the 2012 ACC Academic Honor Roll and was named to the 2012, 2013 and 2014 All-ACC Academic Women's Golf Team. She was one of only three freshmen named to the 2012 All-ACC Academic Women's Golf team and is one of only 11 golfers in the ACC to be named to the All-Academic Women's Golf team in each of the last three seasons.
Castelain has also enjoyed a standout career on the course for the Seminoles. She has played in 29 of the last 31 events for the Seminoles dating back to the second event of her career – the Susie Maxwell Berning Classic. She was at her best as a junior (fall and spring seasons) as she finished the year with a career-low 75.19 stroke average while playing in nine of the Seminoles' 11 events during the year. Castelain has helped Florida State to three NCAA regional championship appearances (Central in 2012, West in 2013, East at Tallahassee in 2014) and helped the Seminoles into a pair of fourth place team finishes in the ACC Championship (2012 and 2013). She has been Florida State's top finisher in four events during the first three seasons of her career.
During the spring of 2104, she played as a member of her third consecutive NCAA Championships qualifying team and finished as Florida State's third leading scorer with a career-low 74.93 stroke average. She played in five of seven events with four of the five appearances coming as a member of the Seminoles' starting line-up. Castelain earned her third career top-10 individual placing as she finished in a tie for 10th place in the Seminole hosted Florida State Match-Up. Her best tournament score of the spring season (218) and second best score of her career vs. par (+2) came at the Web.com/Marsh Landing Intercollegiate – the seventh time during her career that she has finished at five strokes over par or better. Castelain earned three top-20 finishes with her tied for 10th outing in the Florida State Match-Up, her tied for 15th placing in the Web.com/Marsh Landing Intercollegiate and a tied for 17th place finish in the season opening Florida Challenge.
Castelain was one of nine players from the ACC to be named to the WGCA Scholar Athlete team. She is the first Seminoles to be named to the WGCA All-American Scholar team since Caroline Westrup earned the honor in 2009.
The WGCA All-American Scholar Golf Teams recognize the outstanding academic and athletic achievements in women's college golf. Recognized as having one of the highest standards for selection to these teams in college athletics (3.50 GPA), the WGCA All-American Scholar Golf Team continues to demonstrate the high level academic achievements of its players.
A total of seven Seminoles have been named to the WGCA All-American Scholar Athlete team a total of 16 times since 2003. Whitney Brummett is the only Seminole to be a named to the team four times while Caroline Westrup and Caroline Larsson were named to the team three times each.

I just completed a frugal install on my P3 test box.Everything went smoothly.
Already installed pets for Firefox 3.5 and Kazehakase.....both browsers working fine so far.
On to the testing......

the frugal installer works good with the replaced grub wizard. full hd is a little sketchy but still works, did i put that in a previous post? im all caught up in real life today but, tomorrow im going to make a pet for libpopplers missing link. can i make a pet with just a link? or do i need to put the file and the link? ill find out tomorrow.
make easy, make nice.
pd (slacker)
i guess linking libs to older ones is cheating, maybe ill just use the correct poppler from slackware.

I suppose you could make an empty pet with a pininstall.sh script running "ln"... but why not just make a script, tar it up and all a user has to do is click a few times to untar it and then click the script.

That darn menu-icon bug.. I think it is to do with the icon_swithcer_cli script created especially for the jQ8 icons.. now it's kind of a guess, but if you made them the default when constructing from woof the bug might disappear... wishful thinking but possible. It's really a woof bug.
In /initrd/pup_ro2/usr/local/lib/X11/pixmaps (the read only layer) there are are bunch of *24x24.png files at 0 bytes ... they are represented as text files. AFAIK they shouldn't be there at all, just the "fill in" 24x24 icons... ie the ones with no representation of a menu item. (games24x24 is one.) I checked in the dpup.fs and the 431.sfs and they don't exist.. they are possibly created by the pinstall script for the jq8 icons.. which I haven't looked at. Anyway, if you edit the iso before upload deleting those 24x24 icons I think that would fix it. You can't delete them, they come back, (not in a frugal or live anyway). You could in a full.
Not much progress but at least some ideas.
LATER... I just built an spup.. similar problems with libs and the darn icons in the menu.. deleted the jQ8 set ( in the build distro stage ) .. no difference.... hmmm... back to the drawing board?

ive been messing with the icons for a while now and am extra confused now.
has any one noticed if you change the icon theme to flat orange, most of them show up? there is a readme in /usr/local/lib/pixmaps/x11/themes that talks about changing the color to suit different themes. maybe this could be a suitable workaround. im not sure.
deleting the empty files doesnt work either, i tried it a long time ago during ./3builddistro.
this evening i tried to remove them from a full hd install, no luck. the emptys came back when x restarted......or sometime inbetween their removal and my going back to see if they were really gone.
back to the drawing board indeed

I'll confirm that switching to the flat orange icons places most , if not all, in the menus.What that means, I'm not sure but it's a start to a solution.

i like your screenshot james, the yellow looks good on that dark background.
i have got my old job back ($$$$) and will be travelling for the next couple days. im going a lot closer to the north pole than most people care to get at this time of year. i will be working 12 hour days, 7 days a week, but....because its about -30 outside, and im leaving my family behind in victoria....i will have lots of time to play linux.
i seem to be the only one who has problems with the 184.108.40.206 kernel and have been working on a retro with smp. maybe when 31.5 shows up in a woofable package i can use that instead. 31.5 is in the newest woof script but i cant find the package for it. oh well, i just want my icons fixed for now.
tty in a couple days.
flat orange works because those icons are generated from .svg files. it looks to me like the pngs are created when you change the icon theme.
if you look at the dir for flat orange, there is about a dozen pngs and the rest are svgs.
a guy pm'd me today about slack 13 puppy, he asked me some questions i couldn't answer. but here's his thread, i think hes on to the next big thing.....

Don't get too excited about this, I'm currently trying to build the spup-460 I wanted to build from Slackware 13.0 packages, with slackerson's scripts.
I'll try to catch bugs n' stuff if Woof succeeds ... it should. Debian uses old, frozen packages, and Slackware just has a slow package release cycle, and I like it. I'll see what I can do with the 13.0 thing ... from all your posts here I understand that getting spup to work is easier than dpup.

I just downloaded 451 this morning and all is well other than the Cups printing setup does not work. The initial popup comes to ask if install new printer and normally afer a small wait the default browser arrives with the goods and away we go. With this I get a page with some driver info etc then a blank page with 404 NOT FOUND This has not happened to me before with the many puppy variations I have used. Any thoughts?
Also I cannot change the number of virtual desktops,strangely Dpup is the same.I have always been able to change to my preferred number of 4 but a popup says "new config corrupt ,keeping original"
Other than these 2 items all is good.
Regards Dennis
OOPS!! I played around a bit and got my desktops etc so that was me.still no joy with Cups. D
Just tried http://localhost:631/ Result Not Found.
Patriot solved the problem with a download of a pet on the Printing with Unix thread so anyone with the same problem have a look there.

i am doing ./2createpackages.slackerson as i type this.....451 works quite well. libpoppler can be cheated with a link or you can go ahead and install the correct poppler from slack 12.2....other than that i have been using it all the time. a few bugs here and there with the devx and src.
from here on out ill be on to 13. spup130 and beyond.

Grundfos Large UPS is a canned rotor, centrifugal pump for circulating water in heating systems and smaller air-conditioner systems in commercial buildings.
These pumps are based on glandless pump or canned rotor technology. The pumped liquid cools and lubricates the motor and rotating parts.
Large UPS circulators are typically used in commercial building like schools, hospitals and office buildings for circulating domestic hot water, heating water and air-conditioning fluid.
The name UPS stands for the German Umwältz Pumpen Selektra, directly translated as Circulator Pumps Selective. S for Selektra indicates that you can select between three speed settings.
The key advantages:
- No maintenance in the pump's lifetime
- No risk of leakage
- No noise
- Three speed settings

Wave Experiment Consortium
Each of the four spacecraft carries an identical set of 11 instruments to investigate charged particles, electrical and magnetic fields. These were built by European and American instrument teams led by Principal Investigators.
WEC - Wave Experiment Consortium
Current Chairman: Per-Arne Lindqvist, Sweden Five of the Cluster instruments (DWP, EFW, STAFF, WBD, and WHISPER) are designed to measure electric and magnetic fields and waves. They have been grouped together to form the Wave Experiment Consortium.
DWP - Digital Wave Processing experiment
Principal Investigator: Hugo Alleyne, UK
The control and computing brain for the Wave Experiment Consortium (WEC). It provides precise timing that allows correlation studies between the four spacecraft, and has a particle correlator that enables variations in the electron population around the spacecraft to be compared with the wave measurements.
EFW - Electric Field and Wave experiment
Principal Investigator: Mats André, Sweden
EFW uses electrical sensors on four 42-metre-long wire booms to measure electric fields and waves. Currents generated in each sensor reveal the density of nearby electrons. EFW can take up to 36 000 measurements per second allowing the motion of plasma structures and wave fronts travelling at thousands of kilometres per second to be detected.
STAFF - Spatio-Temporal Analysis of Field Fluctuation experiment
Principal Investigator: Nicole Cornilleau-Wehrlin, France
A magnetometer that picks up any rapid variations in the magnetic field the spacecraft happens to be passing through. This occurs particularly in regions where the charged particles of the solar wind interact with the magnetosphere.
WBD - Wide Band Data instrument
Principal Investigator: Jolene Pickett, USA
WBD is designed to provide high-resolution measurements of both electric and magnetic fields in selected frequency bands. WBD listens for radio whistles and hisses from particles that bounce around near Earth's magnetic poles.
WHISPER - Waves of HIgh frequency and Sounder for Probing of Electron density by Relaxation experiment
Principal Investigator: Jean-Gabriel Trotignon, France
WHISPER makes use of radar to measure the density of charged particles in space. Brief radio pulses, sent out through the two 42-metre-long EFW wire booms, trigger oscillations or 'echoes', which are detected after a short delay. In addition, WHISPER monitors natural wave activity in the frequency range 2 to 80 kHz.

Last week, my Gail came to town to meet her new granddaughter. On Saturday morning before she returned home, the four of us (Bus Nerd, Bus Chicklet, my Gail, and me) headed to Hi Spot for brunch. Bus Nerd and I have taken the bus to Hi Spot at least a zillion times (4 + 3, 48 + 3, or short walk + 3) since we've been married. Unfortunately, Saturday was the first time we'd done it with an infant. Dealing with the baby in the sling, the diaper bag, and my Gail's bus newbie status distracted Bus Nerd, and he somehow managed to drop his wallet on the 4. He realized it soon after we got off, but not soon enough to catch up to the bus.
I know from experience that losing something on the bus means waiting until the end of the day for it to be turned in to lost and found (assuming it gets turned in at all), and then waiting until the lost and found office is open to claim it. Losing a wallet is a bit more urgent than losing and umbrella or pair of gloves (my specialty), and I knew that Bus Nerd wouldn't be able to enjoy brunch if he had to wait until Monday to find out if his wallet had been returned. So, being the resourceful bus chick I am, I suggested that he catch a cab and intercept the 4 while the wallet was still on it.
While my Gail, Chicklet, and I caught the 3 to the restaurant, Bus Nerd did just that. He called Metro from the cab, and a helpful rider information specialist kept him up to date on the 4's progress (for once, the route's excruciatingly slow pace was a benefit) while the cab driver gave chase. He caught up with the bus on Virginia. The driver remembered him and immediately handed him the wallet, which had been turned in by another passenger. Nothing was missing.
Wallet back in pocket, Bus Nerd took the cab to the restaurant where my Gail, Chicklet, and I were waiting, and we all enjoyed a stress-free meal. Props to the rider information specialist, the Good Samaritan passenger, and the cab and bus drivers, for making the end of this story a happy one.

Sunday Night Bleacher Beach Baseball
Things are looking pretty good these days and they just got better for anyone looking to come out to the series against the A's. Free parking for the whole series…
For those coming to the ITD tour and game, be on the lookout for all the info tomorrow. Will finally get around to posting the process for buying tickets.
Here's the lineup for tonight's game on ESPN…and if you weren't going to come out tonight because of the Laker game, don't worry…we'll have it on several TVs throughout the concourse to support our downtown team.
Pierre, LF
Hudson, 2B
Ethier, RF (The Mailman of Dodgertown)
Blake, 3B
Loney, 1B
Kemp, CF
Furcal, SS (how big was that homer yesterday??)
Ausmus, C
Wolf, P (against his former squad)
No Comments
ITD ticket info tomorrow…right on!
Ummm, I'd flip-flop Pierre and Furcal. Don't want to mess with psyches, Joe….
I sure hope the Andre "The Mailman" Either delivers on Sunday. GO DODGER BLUE!!!!!!
Furcal obp doesn't deserve to be in the lead off spot just yet and I was expected Torre to dropped Furcal down to #8 in the first place. Let's get them Wolf and Let's make it a double win with the Lakers and Dodgers tonight.
Heaven forbid Kahli we upset 8 for 38 Pierre's psyche by batting him 8th or 9th. Heaven forbid they rest him a day also.
But Furcal, he moves.
spit, you are onto something…the only two non pitchers with a worse OBP than Furcal are Hoffmann and DeWitt. Billingsley has a better OBP. Hey…bat Billingsley lead-off next time!!!!!
That's Juan .250 .211 .211 leading off his last 9 games Pierre. And we wonder why the offense is stalled?
Furcal the last 9 games .333 .393 .250
I'd rather have Ferk leading off…
Let's see if Furcal can do that in 20 games lol. You know how some felt about sample size.
To be honest let's see what Furcal and Pierre can do in the 8th and 9th spots and put Hudson Ethier and Kemp.
Good Afternoon everyone ~ Today the Dodgers take the 3rd game in this 4 game series with the Phillies! DODGERS ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! GO DODGER BLUE!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't believe Josh didn't mention this one yet but he's probably waited for tomorrow. Tonight win we would be in the record book and be the 3rd franchises to have 10,000 wins.
I have refrained from complaining when they offer promotions during the year to purchase seats in my area cheaper than what I paid as a season ticket holder, but this really bugs me that they're offering free parking but the people who already purchased preferred parking will park in their regular lots. Do they get a refund? And what about those of us who already purchased general admission parking with our season tickets? Do we get a refund? Or how about handing out vouchers equal to what we already paid for parking at the gate?
What happened to DeWitt?
Shad – Eric mentioned the 10,000th win the other night, and northstateblues mentioned it this morning. Maybe Josh figured we had it covered already…………..just thinking. We are a pretty smart bunch you know,and you may be right. Josh might be waiting for the Dodgers to win the game first. It's like talking about a no-hitterbefore it's happened, maybe we shouldn't be mentioning this either until it actually happens in fear of jinxing it.
tru- I was wondering myself what Green was up to. Probably golfs a lot.
No problem with that lol.
DeWitt's been struggling a bit luv:
.267 38 146 27 39 12 5 2 18 67 21 17 1 2 .367 .459 .826
Last 10 games though he's only hitting .189
Shad ~ you are finally back…..much better than Spit!
Knouffbrock ~ I liked Shawn a lot but really knew very little about him. He was kind of private like Andre is. I didn't even know he liked to play golf. I do know that he was very good friends with Delgado.
Dang I had a nice day in nascar until Busch and Labonte mess me up and I had a good feeling Stewart was going to win but didn't want to waste another start on him already since I'm down to 5 left. Johnson and Newman did great but I wish I had played Kahne and Hornish Jr. instead of Kurt Busch and Bobby Labonte.
Damn can't believe the dback blew that lead again for Haren.
I like the new name also Shad :))))
It's almost game time…
Hello there ITD
I love this toe to toe with the Phillies, if anything at all, they know that we're in the league and we certain can block their way to a repeat.
First things first though…..GO DODGERS!!!!
Yeah I had to get rid of it since I don't need to troll the Giants main board hahahaha lol.
Time to watch the Lakers game
Anyone see we put The Toaster on the DL and recalled DeWitt?
Hey enchanted!!! That was googled to me earlier. I was surprised nobody on here posted it yet. Very interesting, yes?
Guess the theory is since we're playing the AL they wanted an extra position player. Wouldn't that be just the opposite though? Since we have the DH we wouldn't need it?
Maybe it has more to do with Loretta not hitting?
I didn't know that about Milton! Hmmm!
It's over tightness in his back.
BTW, I just wanted you all to know that I no linger look forward to JPs ABs LOL!!!
HE'S BAAAAACK – Slappy rides again!!!
I hadn't heard about Milton. Too bad for him with all the injuries he's had, but I do love Dewitt. I have to get my trigger finger ready for switching between the Dodgers and Lakers. Should be a great night of sports.
enchanted – at least you looked forward to them at one time. I never got that far.
Bluecrewgirl ~ I sent my husband to the bedroom to watch the Lakers…….I need my Dodgers here with me! Besides, I don't get to see the Dodgers on TV very often.
Enchanted brought Slappy back!!!
I feel a JP song coming on…
Don't think Wolf should be throwing too many fastballs right down the middle of the plate to Howard…
Uh, oh………….a JP song. I can't wait!
Did Matt forget his sunglasses again? It didn't look like he was wearing them and it didn't look like he had them on his cap. I would think you'd still need them with the glare that time of night.
He did, BCG and he did need them!!!
Kemp'll probably be grabbing those shades between innings. Bootsy Collins would probably scold him. "Always bring your sunglasses, Baby!"
Have the Lakers game on the NBA.com gameday, Rick and Charlie on the radio, and the game on TV, muted so I wouldn't have to listen to that idiot Joe Morgan.
NSBlues ~ you have all of your bases covered! 🙂
Can anyone on this team hit??? We're making every starter that pitches against us look like Cy Young lately. Its like watching last years team pre-Manny.
Tru, can't imagine having to listen to Joe Morgan running wild without Jim Miller to keep him in check.
I'd hate to be stuck on the 110 tonight. Must be exciting in LA tonight, though.
Next time through the line-up, Enchanted! We're just lulling the pitcher into a state of soon to be lost confidence.
NSBlues ~ You are right. Joe Morgan never shuts up. Mr. Expert on Everything! I figure if he was that great he would have been offered a managerial job!
LOL!!! ……………..maybe it's all in the plan enchanted……making the opposing pitcher think we can't hit the ball and then the 8th and 9th inning….. let them have it, just killing any hopes their SP may have of getting a win.
I am in the kitchen listening to the game and cooking because that other team is on in the bedroom, and my daughter is watching Finding Nemo.
Uh oh, the ESPN guys are still having pierrgasms!
I think Torre should make position player bunt more often and why didn't Raffy try to steal?
Perumike, wonder if those scented towels will finally find a us….
Um… nevermind, heheheh.
LOL ns!
I was wondering why Raffy didn't try and steal too.
Good job, Matt!
Nice RBI hit by KEMP
Wow 17th innings Padres/Dback I hope they played until the 30th innings.
Again not much baserunning and small ball by the Dodgers.
I don't know what worst those announce on the Lakers game our our announce and the Giants announces.
So, it was pretty much just admitted by Charlie that JP doesn't have an arm, and that it is not news to anybody so hence the reason the runner was sent.
Damn typical Wolf.
Good evening all.
Rollins didn't have to think much about running on J.P's arm. No brainer.
Joe Morgan mentioned it too, Nelly. Said it was no secret he had one of the weaker arms in the league, and he likes Pierre. To be fair, he did say some very complimentary things about Andre, and Matt and James too. They interviewed Torre a few minutes ago and he did confirm that Pierre would go back to the bench when Manny comes back.
Wolf is a very marginal athlete…when a team ties the score or goes ahead it is IMPERATIVE the pitcher throw a zero the flowing half inning. Nice sacrifice, too, just before Pierre singled in the 3rd. It's the little things that win pennants.
Wow the Padres ss is pitching and no surprise Reynolds hit a 3 runs homerun off of a non pitcher or maybe he does have experience before/
The Dodgers could learn a lot by watching how the Phillies maneuver their offense and I hope they did.
Speaking of the little things, Dodger pitchers have 19 sac bunts in 58 games. That's about one every three games.
Bastardo looked better in the 5th than he did in the 4th.

BCG — That's what I had heard him say in an interview 2 or so weeks ago. Basically he said he'd talked to Juan and he new his place with Kemp & Dre being the players they are & the good job they are doing as rising stars.
This is why as an Ethieraholic I've not been concerned with Pierre taking his place when Manny is back.
I guess as an Ethieraholic, I have trust issues, lol.
Well were down by 2 but at least Wolf is looking like he might get some innings in.
Let's get some!!!
Collie ~ Joe Morgan was saying that this would be a good time to trade Juan (which is what he wants) since he has been playing so well. 🙂
I noticed the ESPN announcers mentioning that since JP has made the most of his playing time during Manny's absence that he could be offered up as trade bait.
I sure hope so.
WTG Blake!
Fear the beard!!!
Atta Boy Casey!!!!
LOL BCG. Patience is what baseball is all about. It's tough sometimes though!!!
Way to go Casey. Let's get him in and take advantage of the lead off hit. I want James to hit one out to get Morgan to quite knocking his lack of power.
Tru & vl4 — I heard that.
Hopefully some GM's are taking notice. Maybe Joe could make some calls for Ned. It could be like one of those dating "Dinner For Eight" programs to set up singles.
Nice poke James!!!
Let's build on this boys!!!
James! Great at bat.
Collie ~ I'd like James to hit a ball right into Joe's mouth! However, the single will do 🙂
Adios Bastardo.
I hope they light up Chan Ho here.
How're Doin Chan Ho.
Daaaamn! Chan Ho's ERA is actually higher than Mota's.
Nice to see it only took until the 6th inning to get into the Phillies' bullpen this time.
Let's see if we can take advantage.
Come on, let's "Park" one!
Not to be a stick in the mud, but with what we have left in the OF, I don't know as they can afford to trade Juan. Paul I think could handle it, but his infection thing leaves him uncertain. Hoffmann needs to be playing AA. And there's no guarantee Manny won't get him a 100 game suspension when he gets back. As much as I give JP merciless crap, without him I really don't think we'd be 20 games over .500.
Matt was safe. Bad call.
He was safe. No question. The ump blew that one.
Enchanted ~ Mr. Know-it-all Morgan thinks we should get a pitcher for Juan.
At least we scored a run.
Phillies player of the game so far: 1B umpire Chris Guccione.
If it holds through 9, Guccione will win a year's supply of Moxie. Ted Williams says: Make Mine Moxie!
That happen when Mota been pitching well.
messagebear and his niceness must have rubbed off on you or vice versa. However, I do happen to agree with you, and I am with messagebear to a point. I think we can win this thing without Manny. The key for us is pitching, and it has been since day one of this season. So far, our pitching has done it, but for how long is the question.
Hey, if they could get a good pitcher for Juan, go for it. But to trade him now just to trade him, don't think that's particularly wise. I really think that come this winter there will actually be teams come a-callin for Juan when you could put together something of significance.
I fear that Billy Mays guys beard worse than anyone.
His voice is worse than fingernails an a chalkboard.
CRAP!! Get the hook joe. He launched that one!
Wolf strikes again…so how bad is Schmidt's shoulder these days???
Enchanted ~ I don't think the Juanpians have anything to worry about. Joe likes him and will want to keep him.
That happened fast. I switched over to the Lakers for a few and turn it back to see we're down 5-2.
Even with that Dinger, the best the Phils can hope for today is a split with the Dodgers here and a 3-4 series record. And a set of steak knives.
Looks like Wolf is bound and determined to give this game away.
Wolf is what he is – a #4 starter who basically throws junk. He can get away with it sometimes, and sometimes he can't. If Wolf goes 10-10, 12-11 its a successful season for him.
I wish our catcher could do that on occasion.
Time for our bully. Wifey is getting annoyed.
uh oh!!!!
Stick a fork in Wolf. He's cooked.
Lol, v4, cooked well done I would say. I don't count the Dodgers out though the way things have gone this season.
LMAO, vl4 !!!!!!!!!
I just hope one of these nights we can find a starter we can pound on. Can't expect a gem everynight.
Looks like Victorino REALLY wanted the steak knives…
Dang… I leave the TV to go do some business and the next thing I hear is two dingers and three runs scored!
Come on guys – get it back.
32and53 ~ You shouldn't have left! It was all your fault! lol
We are only down by 4. That is a salami. We've got time & we seem to have some magic this year.
We are into their bully now which is pretty good but we've beaten them b4. Let's beat them again!
Let's go Dodgers!!!!
I was thinking more along the lines of really crispy critter bcg…lol
Come on Boy's time to kick it in gear…
Nice going LEACH
3 more inning need 5 runs
Comon' guys beat up on Park.
LOL Tru!
I agree… It's all your fault 32&53. This ones on you! Thanks a lot!!!
Yadda yadda yadda. Blub blub blub.
They need to put a muzzle on Morgan!!!
Way to go Juan!!!!
I think I'm going on my ESPN Insider tomorrow and tell them that, word for word, vl4!
Welcome to the bigs Travis!
I have a feeling we should have been playing Hollywood Squares again tonight!
Can anyone else think of a good slob humor classic comedy? I had a blast, and laughed so hard my stomach hurt last season with Blazing Saddles, Animal House, and Caddyshack quotes on here.
vl4 ~ if the Cleaver Clan were here, they would certainly have the slob humor classic comedy!
Nice OT period so far from the Lakers now all we need to do is comeback against the Philly.
"Ward, you were a little hard on the Beaver last night."
PARK may be in the wrong uniform but he's doing O.K.
LMAO, vl4!!!!!!!!!!! That's a start!!
You know, this game isn't bothering me. Had to figure that between Kersh, Kuroda, Milton and Wolf we were probably going to lose two. Then when you figure in that Philly is play well and we're not, a split isn't awful.

I'm tracking with you enchanted.
These ARE the best two teams in the NL. Pretty evenly matched, with the exception of HR's. I have the feeling they will be meeting again in the post season.
Of course we're all hoping for a different outcome this year!
Don't know how that posted twice – I only hit submit once.
What new and improved wonders at the start of next season will MLB have for ths blog? Be nice if someday they'd fix this one.
"Revenge of the Nerds" tru.
LOL – sorry I jinxed the game folks.
I am just happy that despite feeling lousy all weekend, I was able to service my car's cooling system and change the thermostat myself saving an $85 labor charge.
We may not have the Hollywood Squares to kick around anymore but there are plenty of other TV shows to mess with.
Here is a quote paraphrased from the Sopranos:
Joe Torre – "The Phillies are so far up my a** that I taste Brillcreem."
I hate to admit it, vl4, but I love that movie!!! It cracks me up! Almost as much as Porky's lol
Schlichting (nice name) got quite a workout.
Schlichting sounds like a beer!
Ausmus (maybe)
Our righTrublu
Remember "Lassie." That was a much younger Kim Cattral waaay before her Sex in the City days.
32and53 ~ I had to put my car to sleep. It will cost me $3000 to fix it and since it's a '94 Camaro, we decided we are just going to sell it as is!
I remember ALL the Lassies. In fact, my Dad got me an autograph from Lassie (and Rudd Weatherwax) when I was a kid. He happened to be at a place where they were signing.
I do think that wa the name of Lassie's trainer.
Looks like Morgan and friends still have some unused scented towels lying around…
A split isn't all that bad for now:(
Are the Dodgers paying ESPN to talk Pierre up for a trade? They have gone on and on about him the entire game compared to the rest of the team.
With very timely hitting and magnicent pitching, especially the bullpen we earned a spit with the Phillies.
I Think we we're ready for Qctober.
BCG ~ You'd think we don't have anybody else on the team! They don't like James (doesn't hit enough homeruns) and we just can't be as good as our record because of our lack of power. However, when it comes to the playoffs, it is the pitching that usually wins.
Pierre (not me) is something to talk about.
Sometimes I think he should have been born right handed.
I think he could've been a fine infielder.
No power but at least he's a .300 hitter.
G'night all. O dark thirty comes early.
Goodnight vl4. I have to go back to work tomorrow after a week off, so I know what you mean.
Good Night vl4. have a good Monday.
Dodgers could EASILY have been swept…I'll take the split. Dodgers may be able to win games without Manny…maybe even win the West without Manny, but come crunch time, when the collars get a little tighter and teams see nothing but the best pitching, the Dodgers will go only as far as Manny takes them. Sorry to have to say it. But as good as Ethier, Loney, Kemp MIGHT become, they're not October players…yet. Russell, I can't even include you in the previous sentence.
Dang Mota stop that lol.
Actually I jinxed the team so sorry should've had mention the 10,000 lol.
I say sell away if it gets the job done!!!!! (jk)
See, you shouldn't have brought it up!!! (jk) It's okay Shad….. we will win the next one. Remember, we haven't lost more than two in a row all season.
I wonder what's Mota trading value gotten be high. Maybe the Dback or the Padres need him lol.
I'd rather Chad gets it against the Padres at home a game I can watch on kcal 9.

Milton on DL, DeWitt recalled from Triple-A
4 hours, 22 minutes ago
Buzz up! PrintLOS ANGELES (AP)—Veteran left-hander Eric Milton(notes) was placed on the 15-day disabled list by the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday because of tightness in his back.
The 33-year-old Milton pitched 4 1-3 innings on Friday night against Philadelphia and allowed eight hits and three runs, one of which was earned. He did not complain to manager Joe Torre of any discomfort after the game.
The Dodgers signed Milton as a minor league free agent on Feb. 10, after he spent an entire season out of the big leagues while recovering from Tommy John surgery.
He is 2-0 with a 2.89 ERA in four starts.
The Dodgers won't need a fifth starter again until June 20, because of three off days in the calendar between now and their interleague series with the Angels in Anaheim. Right-hander Eric Stults(notes), whose sprained thumb forced the Dodgers to recall Milton, is expected to resume his starting role when he comes off the 15-day DL. He is eligible on June 15.
Infielder Blake DeWitt(notes) was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque to fill the Dodgers' vacant roster spot. He appeared in 117 games, playing mostly third and second base, with the Dodgers last season and batted .264 with nine homers in 52 RBIs.
I know enchanted mention this but it suck for Milton. What really suck is the person who wrote this calling Stults right handed when we known he's left handed. WB Dewitt we surely missed you here,
Gosh at the double post.
Khali no offense to your thoughts…But I know you are wrong…and you can quote me on that. Our guys are October guy's…………
Dodger4life, I love your spirit…but I think that's your heart talking! Nothing would please me more than for you to be right on. But this great game of baseball takes a goodly long while to conquer…let alone master. Manny, love him or hate him, is a bonafide October player. And there ain't many…..
I agree with ya on all those facts except one……..
So,the Dodgers have tomorrow off. That is good for the team, boring for us. Who's going to come up with tomorrow's topic of conversation. Maybe Josh and his info on the tour will help, but we will need some talking points as well 🙂
Good evening ITD boys and girls!!!
Okay, I've been off for a few days. I'm thrilled that Andre's doing better. I am quite certain that Andre's hitting funk is getting further and further behind him. I didn't hear that about Milton going onto the DL and Blake DeWitt coming back. I didn't know until I saw Blake come up to the plate today. I'm thrilled that Blake's back.
My Nellygirl! Maybe tomorrow's day off is just what our boys need to get them out of their collective hitting funk (although, our boy is doing better!!!) and pitching woes…
Nelly there is alway's trivia day 🙂
And Andre's recent success, Troncoso's wizardry on the mound so far, Broxtons emergence. Hey I love the O-Dog, I'm still up for basking in the limelight that was the cycle, I can go on and on……..Belisario's blessing…….The fact that this club has dealt with adversity and remains in good terms as a team coming together instead of the other option, on and on Nelly.
Hey D4!!! It's been a long time!!! So how's ID these days???
It is good CP, How have you been??? I keep praying for you and now sparkleplenty also, that includes my normal prayer for everyone as a group.
It so good to see all that Dodger4life!!!!! You are absolutely correct?
As for trivia – Eric is always good at some good trivia. He's got so much of it in that photographic memory brain of his.
……….and cp – Our boy is doing an Ethieriffic job. He is on a 7-game hitting streak, which is a very good sign.
Thx D4! I KNOW I can always count on you! Yes, I still need the prayers, so keep them coming. Yes, I remember that Sparkle needs it too. Tough times, for sure. I'm sure that now that we're well into June, ID has A LOT better weather than that freezing stuff you have to deal with in the winter!!!
Well, like I said before, I can confidently say that Andre is out of his slump!!! Now, we just need the rest of the guys to get on board the hitting wagon. Or at least, hitting with runners on base.
Weathers good also CP…:-)
Yes Nelly – Our boy is doing terrifically!!! I didn't realize that he is on a 7-game hitting streak!!! That's great!!! So how are you and the family? How's the Academy?
Glad to hear that D4!!!
I've never been that good at it, but Nelly, perhaps I'll think of some trivia for tomorrow!
CP – Our family is doing great, and the Academy is doing well also. We are changing hours for the summer…………more daytime hours since the kids are out of school.
Dodger4life – I am glad the weather is much better up there in Idaho :)))))))
Me too :-)))))
Good Night and God Bless Everyone
Have a great day tomorrow 🙂
Goodnight D4!!!
So Nelly, are you going to go the game the night of our ITD tour? My husband and I already had tickets for that night! It'd be great if you were there with us!!!
Good Night Dodger4life!!!!!! Take Care and God bless :)))))
CP – I am pretty sure we are. Kahli had asked about getting a group rate for those of us going on the tour, so I will probably wait until that info comes out. We are planning on driving up Friday and coming back Sunday late or Monday. Is your husband going on the tour as well? Mine is staying back because Michael has a baseball tournament. Mariya and her half and half self are going though. She is wearing blue and white though……………I told her no orange or black is allowed on the tour – LOL!!!
Nelly, I'm glad that Mariya is coming and will be wearing blue and white!!! Yes, Jim was able to get the day off from work! Hmm, I posted that as a note to Josh a while ago. It was towards the end of a thread, so if you didn't see it, perhaps Josh didn't see it either…
Reposted from a week ago. Josh, I'm not sure if you saw this before, but in case you didn't, here it is. If you did, pls forgive the reposting…
Can't stay long…
*** Note to Josh ***
Just got word from my husband; he got the day off work on 6/27/09 and will be able to make it to our ITD tour!!! Yeah!!! So for me, it's 2 adults coming!!!
Okay, now a note my fellow ITDers:
I know I've said on here that my husband is a Cubbies and Angels fan, but do me a BIG favor please!!! When it comes time for the tour, please don't knock him for his choices of favorite baseball teams!!! Thx!!!
By cpompe1 on June 1, 2009 5:15 PM
Okay, so the Dodgers have a day off tomorrow and Kuroda-san pitched yesterday!!! Oh well…
Don't go by whether I saw anything in the last couple of weeks. I really didn't pay too much attention to all of like I usually do, as I was finishing up my school year.
So speaking of school being over, I take it you spend most of your hours at the academy? Or are you just vegging out for a while?
Well, tomorrow is my first official vacation day, and no…I don't have to spend any time down at the academy if I don't want to. I actually have to go back to school this week and unpack some of my stuff onto shelves or else the custodians won't be able to wax the floors in my new room. All of my stuff is currently all ove the floor because the teacher's room I am moving into wasn't even close to being out yet. I was supposed to be able to just move my things from one shelf in my old room to another shelf in my new room,but it certainly didn't go that way. It was a fiasco, and I was very emotionally upset all day. I didn't get to spend any quality time with my class because I had to spend the time packing instead. I was not a happy Kemper that day at all. My kids thought I was upset with them because they could tell I was upset, and I had to convince them it had nothing to do with them being bad…………I was upset because I couldn't spend time with them.
Sorry Nelly, I know I asked you some questions, but I'm getting sleepy, so I'm gonna go. I'll catch up with ya tomorrow…
What timing!!! 🙂
Good Night CP!!!!! Talk to you tomorrow sometime.
Sorry your day was so frustrating Nelly. Good luck in getting your stuff moved into your new room.
Okay, now I'll go!!! Goodnight Nelly…
I thought you were going to bed 🙂 LOL!!! Good night and God Bless!!!!!
OK, trivia day it is! Unfortunately, I can't be around for a while, but I'd love to get it started. We probably won't stick with baseball trivia, but we should at least start with it.
Let's try and solve them on our own – no Googling for the answers! Here's one I found on the Internet:
Which of the following rules resulted when the New York Knickerbockers and other baseball clubs banded together to form the National Association of Baseball Players in 1858?
A) The umpire was given the power to call strikes.
B) Players were no longer allowed to catch the ball in their caps.
C) No player was ever to be paid; baseball was to remain an amateur's game.
D) All of the above.
Here's one for an on-going discussion:
Back in 1973, Ford Frick was asked for 10 records that he thought would never be broken. A dangerous task to be sure, and several of them have bitten the dust.
1) Cy Young's pitching record of 511 games won during his lifetime career.
2) Charles Radburn's record of sixty pitching victories in a single season.
3) Kid Nichol's feat of winning thirty or more games per season for seven consecutive seasons.
4) Walter Johnson's lifetime record of 3,508 strikeouts.
5) Lou Gehrig's record of 2,130 consecutive games.
6) The record of one-hundred or more runs batted in for thirteen consecutive seasons – also by Lou Gehrig.
7) Ty Cobb's record of 4,191 lifetime hits.
8) Joe DiMaggio's record of hitting safely in fifty-six consecutive games.
9) Babe Ruth's lifetime record of 2,056 bases on balls.
10) Don Larsen's perfect World Series game. This one may be matched some day but it will never be beaten. You can't beat perfection.
My question to you ITD buddies is this: What record do YOU think will never be broken?
Personally, along with the aforementioned Cy Young's 511 wins, I think it's safe to say that his 749 complete games won't be touched. And if you cry 'foul' because he started his career before the Modern Era, I'll throttle it back to Walter Johnson's total of 531. It's one of the records that will never be touched because the game has changed and will never go back. If you averaged 25 complete games for 20 years, you'd still be 31 short.
We ask and we shall receive 🙂 Thank you Dodgereric!!!
2) Charles Radburn's record of sixty pitching victories in a single season.
With the pitching rotation the way it is, can this ever be accomplished again? Probably not…….. If you have a 5 man rotation, the 5th guy in the rotation occasionally gets skipped over if there is a day off. At the most, each pitcher would only pitch 36.4 games if the rotation was divided evenly amongst the 5 pitchers in the rotation. ……..and nowadays a 20 game victory season, you can be considered for the CY young award.
5) Lou Gehrig's record of 2,130 consecutive games.
JP was trying to get there, and that ended on Opening Day 2008.
Dodgereric ~ except for a possible perfect World Series game, a la Larson, I don't thing ANY of the records will be broken.
Pitchers don't pitch any more………players get tired and need days off and mostly managers screw around with things way too much.
I guess, since you said could be matched but never broken, I'll hve to eliminate the perfect World Series game, Dodgereric. Therefore NONE of the records will ever be broken!
I guess, since you said could be matched but never broken, I'll hve to eliminate the perfect World Series game, Dodgereric. Therefore NONE of the records will ever be broken!
Sorry about the double post!
As far as the trivia question, I do know (probably through you somehow or one of the many books you have recommended I read) that "called strikes" were introduced in 1858. I seriously doubt they ever had a rule that prevented players from getting paid, and that eliminates the "all of the above" so I am going with "B" as my final answer.
…sorry …………I meant to say "A" as my final answer 🙂
I'll say "B" in the trivia question.
I'll play. I'll say "D" because I'm an All of the Above kinda guy.
None of the first three pitching feats will ever be remotely approached again. Game's changed far too much to even get close to 30 wins in a single year. Who was the last – Denny McLain? and that was what 40 or so years ago?
6/8/10 would be extremely tough to pull off, but at least there's an outside chance it could happen.
There is one record that isn't on there… Juan Pierre's record of 5 consecutive years of at least 450 slappy outs. LMAO!!
LMTO, Enchanted!!!!!!!!!!!! I bet he thinks he could have set the consecutive games played record, too!
Good Morning all,
TRIVIA TIME…COOL. OK I will have to go with B, just because Ihave not seen a player catch a ball with their cap. And for the Record Breaking question I will say Lou Gehrig's record of 2,130 consecutive games because they don't play 2,130 consecutive games.
uh – Cal Ripken already broke Gehrig's record.
Now THERE's a record no one will ever get close to – Cal's 2,632 consecutive games streak. That's more than 16 seasons of never missing a game. Nowadays these guys get a fart crossways and they're day-to-day.

With Mobile World Congress just a few months away, rumors and news about HTC's One X successor have started making an appearance on the Internet. @evleaks who is known for leaking information about unreleased devices has posted on UnwiredView, some of the specs about the One X's successor, codename M7.
The M7 will sport a 4.7-inch display but with a whopping 1080p HD resolution. The display will be better than the SLCD2 display on the One X with better viewing angles, outdoor visibility and color accuracy. Internally, the M7 will be packing in a powerful 1.7GHz quad-core processor from Qualcomm, along with 2GB of RAM.
Like the One X, HTC will be marketing the M7 with the same tagline "Amazing Camera, Authentic Sound". On the camera side, HTC will be using a 13MP sensor with F/2.0 and capable of recording videos in 1080p full HD. The camera on the front will be a 2MP wide-angle view like on the 8X. HTC will be retaining the Beats Audio branding on the M7, and will be using a dedicated Beats amplifier as featured on the HTC 8X.
The M7 will have the One X downsides – a sealed 2300mAh battery and "only" 32GB of internal storage. Apart from all the other usual features such as GPS, LTE, the M7 is also expected to boast support for the next-generation Wi-Fi standard – 802.11 ac. Considering that 802.11ac based Wi-Fi routers are not yet a commonplace, I doubt that the inclusion of a 802.11ac Wi-Fi chip on the M7 is true.
HTC is expected to unveil the successor to the One X at MWC in Barcelona next year.

thanks so much for reviewing these and putting this on here for me to find! its been a process switching our lives and all our products to being cruelty free and it's been difficult to convince my boyfriend that we can find products we like and that are comparable. excited to order some and try them out!
Liked 🙂
I always preferred natural products but the more I learnt about what is in "conventional" products, the more I realised it was the only option. All natural is better for your body, animals and the environment and it's super sexy!
going natural was the only option for me after be doused with such overabundant information about the negative treatment of animals, the effect of dangerous chemicals on our body, and the fact that by purchasing such b products I am helping then. no way. it's au naturale or bust.;)
I like Rock Deodorant on Facebook. I started going natural after I went vegan and started learning more about what is in the products I consume.
I liked them on facebook. I'm natural because I like to know what I'm putting on & in my body.
Try to avoid chemicals wherever possible
I found out about all the toxic junk in conventional beauty products and was shocked.
I go natural because I don't like things tested on animals or that can hurt the environment. Nor do I want cancer! Liked on FB
Chemicals go right through your skin so anything that can reduce the amount of toxins is a good thing.
What a fun giveaway! I've been making my own deodorant for awhile to avoid chemicals, but I really miss the smell from the guys' deodorant I used to use! I'd love to try these! And I liked them on FB.
I went natural because I started smartening up about what aluminum can do to our bodies, and I'd rather not give myself a higher chance of breast cancer by using antiperspirants that truthfully didn't even work that well. I used to use axe and old spice and was sad to give up the yummy scents, so I'm happy that there is still a scented option for us who are a little bored by unscented, lavender, or overly feminine-scented deos. I've def liked Rock on FB.
I went natural because it made sense. I've suffered from eczema since I can remember having skin. While on my high school swim team I had it something awful ON MY PITS. The combo of shaving, chlorinated water, and, obvs, mainstream deoderants caused this dry, flaky, super itchy and sometimes cracked and bleeding effect ON MY PITS. I have scarring to this day and dread having to shave. Got wise to that to. I'm a pit plucker now, except in cases of extreme emergency and since switching to all natural deoderizing, even when I absolutely have to shave, the skin OF MY PITS is much happier. Now I have to work on my husband…haver of no skin issues.
…aaannnnd, that's all.
I liked them on FB! Natural is better, who wants all of those icky chemicals hanging around? 🙂
I liked Rock Deodorant on facebook. The ingredients on deodorant/antiperspirants are so scary and the not entirely known side effects are enough to make me not want to put them on my body. Thank you for the giveaway!
I have loved animals for a long time. They are little furballs of love and joy. So when I discovered what was done to them in the meat industry and the beauty industry, I was shocked. After that, I decided I needed to change what products I used and ate. I feel better about myself and I know that I am doing good for the environment and for my body. 🙂
I liked them on Facebook as well. I guess I should have said that in my original post. Sorry!
I like Rock Deodorant on facebook (ginger starr gisi)
I'd love to get this for my husband to convert him to natural products! haha : ) I don't like putting chemicals on my body, and I want him to be more aware as well!

Your cart is empty!
Price Each
Not an average robot kit, the Bioloid Comprehensive Kit from Robotis allows you
to build and configure over 26 robots!
Dynamixel AX-12+ serially controlled servos
Dynamixel AX-S1 sensing module
Bioloid CM-5 module
The Bioloid frames are made from injection molded plastic and are superbly designed
- they fit and connect perfectly to each other as well as to the AX-12's and AX-S1's
supplied in the kit.
Bioloid Kit Software
There are two software utilities that come with the Bioloid kit, these are:
1. Motion Editor - a GUI that allows you to create motion sequences for your robot.
2. Behaviour Control Program - a GUI that allows you to program sequences of events/motions.
Using the Motion Editor in conjunction with the Behaviour Control Program allows
the programmer to use the Motion Editor to generate the robots motion sequences
and then use the Behaviour Control Program to implement the logic (or intelligence)
of the robot.
Both of these utilities are Freeware.
Educational Institutions can install the software on multiple PC's without infringing
on licensing agreements.
Bioloid Kit Motion Editor
The Motion Editor is a package that allows the user to move the motors
of a robot simply by INC or DEC the number that describes the motors current
Motions are built up frame-by-frame - very similar to a story board in
an animation sequence. This allows quite complicated"animations" to be quickly
programmed and tested. Once a motion has been defined it can then be downloaded
into the CM-5's FLASH and called from the Behaviour Control Program.
Bioloid Kit Behaviour Control Program
The Behavior Control Program is a very nice package, it is easy and intuitive
to use.
A series of commands are entered that allow the programmer to interrogate
ALL the functionality of the AX-12, AX-S1 and the CM-5 mcu module. The functionality
accessible within the CM-5 includes playing motion sequences, external pushbuttons
and the CM-5's timer.
The commands provided with the Behaviour Control Program include:
Another feature of the Behaviour Control Program is the debugging function
which allows variables to be displayed on the PC's screen whilst the program
is executing - making it very easy to calibrate AX-S1 sensors.
Programming the Bioloid Robot Kit in C
It is also possible to program the CM-5 module using freeware C compilers, such
as that made available by AVR Freaks.
This gcc compiler is a great freeware tool, coupled with the editor Programmers
This is an option for experienced programmers only though, you'll need to start
from the ground up - write all the communication protocol's from scratch, etc.,

To all of my loyal readers (besides Mom & Dad)…
I sincerely apologize for not blogging for the past few months and sharing my food adventures solely through Instagram. Fall has been hectic, living up the post-grad life and discovering what the "real world" truly is. But alas, it's a weak excuse. And for that, I am giving the gift of a promise this year: a promise to have the redesigned wikiKitchen up and running in January!
But a promise is only worth so much. So I decided to treat a few fellow food bloggers by participating in The Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap and taking it one step further. What beats receiving a dozen cookies from a stranger in the mail? Receiving an assortment of cookies from a stranger in the mail! Baking five different kinds of cookies in one day is no easy task though, so I partnered up with my mom so her swap-mates could also enjoy the variety of cookies (and yes, she really does refer to me as "the spawn" on her blog).
So, what did my lucky swap-mates (Melissa's Cuisine, Bonibella, and Aubrey of Real Housemoms) receive? (Click the images for recipes!)
- Cocoa Almond Cookies – A must-have for those who like nutella but love Trader Joe's cocoa almond spread (remember to substitute it in the recipe!)
- Meyer Lemon Butter Cookies – A melt-in-your-mouth kind of cookie (my mom's fave!)
- Pistachio Fudge – An easy-to-make holiday treat
- Red Velvet Shortbread Cookies – A festive cookie that can be easily customized when it comes to shapes & lettering
And for the final cookie, saving best for last: Brown Butter Snickerdoodle Cookies. When we read they were the best snickerdoodles in the world, we had to try them! Let me tell you, brown butter really does make the world of baking a better place. The few leftovers we had of these snickerdoodles were the first of the cookie assortment to go in our house! But I can't blame 'em. These cookies achieve perfection when it comes to texture and flavor.
And for those of you wondering what I received in the mail? Lemon crinkle cookies (and chocolate-covered almond toffee!) from Sushi Day (a fellow UC Irvine anteater – zot zot!), vanilla crescent cookies from Bailey Bakes, and chocolate peppermint crackle cookies from A Kitchen Addiction.
Stay tuned for the wikiKitchen redesign! But until then, enjoy the world's best brown butter snickerdoodle cookies.
Brown Butter Snickerdoodle Cookies
From Ambitious Kitchen
Makes 18-24 cookies
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon of salt
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter
1¼ cup packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg plus 1 egg yolk
1 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 tablespoon plain greek yogurt
For rolling mixture:
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
Whisk together the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and salt in a bowl and set aside. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. The butter will begin to foam. Make sure you whisk consistently during this process. After a couple of minutes, the butter will begin to brown on the bottom of the saucepan; continue to whisk and remove from heat as soon as the butter begins to brown and give off a nutty aroma. Immediately transfer the butter to a bowl to prevent burning. Set aside to cool for a few minutes.
With an electric mixer, mix the butter and sugars until thoroughly blended. Beat in the egg, yolk, vanilla, and yogurt until combined. Add the dry ingredients slowly and beat on low-speed just until combined.
Chill your dough for 3 hours or as long as possible in the refrigerator, or place in freezer for 30 minutes if you are super eager (this is what I did seeing as I had four other types of cookies to make in the same oven!).
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Once dough is chilled measure about 2 tablespoons of dough and roll into a ball. Meanwhile mix 1/4 cup sugar and the 2 teaspoons cinnamon in a bowl. Roll balls in cinnamon-sugar mixture. Place dough balls on cookie sheet, 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies 8-11 minutes or until the edges of the cookies begin to turn golden brown. They will look a bit underdone in the middle, but will continue to cook once out of the oven. Bake longer if you like crispier cookies. Cool the cookies on the sheets at least 2 minutes. Remove the cooled cookies from the baking sheets after a few minutes and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining dough.
