Crazy gadgets for guys
Swiss Army knife USB
There's something in the vast world of weird and wonderful products to stir the heart of any guy with a gizmo fetish. Read on as we survey the latest and greatest gadgets. — Shannon McCarthy
Bing | Swiss Army knife USB
The iconic guy fave just got an update: This Swiss Army knife is equipped for the modern world with a foldout USB memory stick. Sure, it won't help him whittle, file his nails or open a bottle of wine, but when he needs digital storage fast, it's there.
Mattel Mindflex Duel game
Bing | Mattel Mindflex Duel game
Geek guys will grok the spectacular Mindflex Duel, a game that pits players' brain waves against each other for a bit of sci-fi-flavored fun. A variation of EEG tech is built into the game's headsets, controlling a floating ball for obstacle course single play, plus dual matches that are truly mind over matter.
Kohler Moxie showerhead/wireless speaker
Bing | Kohler Moxie showerhead/wireless speaker
Talk about Nep-tunes: This Bluetooth-enabled hybrid from Kohler blows all other shower radios out of the water. It wirelessly streams audio from all manner of devices (MP3 players, cellphones, tablets, etc.) and easily pops in and out of the included showerhead for recharging and for use as a stand-alone speaker.
Digger mechanical paperweight
Bing | Digger mechanical paperweight
Paperweights can be classy crystal mementos, but we think most dudes would rather have something that multitasks in macho fashion. An adjustable magnetized shovel corrals clips, while a pre-loaded sticky-notes compartment and pencil sharpener get the job done. Awesome extra: Big friction wheels can actually drive this tiny truck around the desk.
Zippo stainless-steel wallet
Bing | Zippo stainless-steel wallet
Upgrade that tried-and-true wallet gift with a present made for the digital age. Zippo crafts this modern billfold in stainless steel so it not only looks sleek but also protects the cards stowed within from being scanned and their numbers possibly stolen. The handsome exterior is also engravable for a personal touch.
3M TEKK WorkTunes headphones
Bing | 3M TEKK WorkTunes headphones
Dudes definitely need decent hearing protection when taking on yard duties or workshop crafts, but how many would appreciate a pair of protective ear gear that also rocks the tunes? 3M's WorkTunes headphones provide superior soundproofing, but they're also audio device-compatible and outfitted with an AM/FM stereo radio.
Laser projection keyboard
Bing | Laser projection keyboard
One of the coolest new gadgets we've seen is a laser projection keyboard that reverses the 3-D craze to amazing effect. Using Bluetooth tech, the device lays out a full QWERTY keyboard on any flat surface, so hands are freed from the smaller keys of a tablet computer or smartphone.
Magic Wand remote control
Bing | Magic Wand remote control
While there are plenty of kid-style wands on the market (thanks, Harry Potter), most just make noise and light up. Here's one that truly holds magic – up and down gestures adjust the TV's volume, dramatic arm sweeps change the channel and a quick tap can pause a DVD.
iSoldier cellphone holder
Bing | iSoldier cellphone holder
This looks like a gimmicky joke, but it's actually a practical way to accomplish something we all sometimes need to do – prop up our cellphones. This extremely affordable gift (it's packaged with two little green army men) goes under the heading: "for the guy who's got everything."
Bedol water alarm clock
Bing | Bedol water alarm clock
He'll keep close track of his life aquatic with this ingenious device that runs solely on water power; no batteries or electrical outlets required. A neat gift for geeks or any guy who's even a little eco-conscious, the clock only needs a refill of household tap water every six months to keep it running.

I would like to mention that this page has not been updated ever since the last comic. The HTML and PHP coding have been copy-pasted from the original, and is really the worst I have ever seen. I mean, serious. There is no CSS coding either! Man, what have I been smoking..
Anyway, this is more a warning than anything else. The quality of these comics is WORSE than subpar. I can only hope this will show people how NOT to make a comic.
Will I ever reboot the series, maybe make new comics? Possibly. I have not exactly lost the taste of doing that.. but at least I can assure they will be at least of better quality.

The 10 Worst Cities to Raise a Family
Choosing when, or whether, to have children is one of the most challenging decisions many couples face. In trying to figure out if they're ready to start a family, they'll need to weigh several important questions: Do we have enough money to provide for our children's needs? Can one of us take time off from work to care for a child? Are we emotionally prepared for parenthood?
And if you live in one of the 10 cities listed below--ranked the worst for raising a family--you'll have a few additional questions to confront: How can we raise our children in such a challenging environment? Should we consider moving? The rankings are based on graduation rates (according to the EPE Research Center), number of playgrounds (according to the Center for City Park Excellence), overall crime rates (according to Sperling's Best Places), and cost of living (according to the ACCRA Cost of Living Index).
- Detroit, Michigan. The city of Detroit has by far the lowest graduation rate, with only a dismal 21.7 percent of students finishing high school. With such poor educational performance coupled with its high crime rate, it's no wonder Detroit topped our list. Even its relatively high number of playgrounds (nearly four per 10,000 residents) didn't make it child-friendly.
- Miami, Florida. Miami's bar scene may be a tropical playground for adults, but it doesn't have many playgrounds for children (only 1.4 per 10,000 residents). In addition, it has one of the worst crime rates and a shoddy graduation rate of 45 percent.
- Baltimore, Maryland. To fans of HBO's The Wire, it's probably not a surprise to see Baltimore on this list. With merely 38.5 percent of its students completing high school, Baltimore's graduation rate is second only to Detroit's. Its high crime rates make it an even less desirable place to raise children.
- Memphis, Tennessee. Like all the cities on this list, Memphis graduates less than half its students (48.5 percent). Despite having the lowest cost of living, it ranks as one of the worst cities for kids by having the highest crime rate.
- Dallas, Texas. Dallas is the first of three Texas cities to make the list, proving that the Lone Star State isn't a shining example of a place to raise your family. Few playgrounds, a 46 percent graduation rate, and high crime allow Dallas to round out the top five.
- New York City. It may come as a surprise to some, but New York City is actually the safest place on our list. However, its exorbitant cost of living and meager graduation rate (less than 40 percent) still make it a bad place to raise children.
- Fort Worth, Texas. Not surprisingly, Fort Worth has a lot of the same problems that Dallas has: low graduation rates and high crime. One area where it does do better is in the number of playgrounds.
- Houston, Texas. Not everything is bigger in Texas. Sure, the dropout rate in Houston is bigger and the crime rate is bigger, but the number of park playgrounds is certainly smaller.
- Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Milwaukee graduates only 43 percent of its students and can't boast that it has many playgrounds for its children.
- Los Angeles, California. With the second highest cost of living, only one playground per 10,000 residents, and a meager graduation rate, it's no surprise that the City of Angels completes the top 10 worst cities for children.

The People Magazine Cover We've All Been Waiting For!
July 29, 2009 / Posted by: Michael K
YES!!! I'm so excited….I'm so excited….I'm so….ooold. Yes, this People Magazine cover starring the cast of Saved By The Bell reminds me that I will soon be spending my days licking on Werther's Originals and talking to my Pantyhose Dolls in the retirement home, but who cares?! This is what all magazine covers should look like! The best part is that People used the "U DON'T EXIST" Photoshop tool to erase Screech from the 1989 cast photo.
Now if only there was a Photoshop tool to erase the images from his (NSFW) sex tape from my brain. Screech ruined Dirty Sanchezes for me.

MADISON, WI (WTAQ) - Wisconsin senators voted 30-2 Tuesday in favor of letting cancer patients get more affordable pills for their chemotherapy.
Only Republicans Leah Vukmir and Paul Farrow voted no, when the Senate agreed to make insurance companies cover the cost of the expensive chemo pills.
Despite the heavy support, Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald had blocked a vote on the measure until Tuesday.
Assembly Speaker Robin Vos also put the crimp into the bill, by transferring it to a second committee and requiring a two-thirds vote for passage. Vos said his fellow Republicans would discuss the matter in a private caucus on Thursday before deciding what to do.
Supporters said the bill would make the more convenient chemo pills more affordable for those who need them. Opponents called it another mandate on the insurance industry that would drive up health costs in the long run.

Twinlab - Creatine Fuel Stack Performance Enhancer - 180 Capsules
Twinlab Creatine Fuel Stack combines the performance enhancing effects of Creatine Monohydrate with the cell-volumizing amino acids, Glutamine and Taurine. Research shows that Creatine users had a significant increase in peak power output, mean body mass and muscular performance. That's because Creatine helps to replace the compound in your muscles, phosphocreatine, which gets burned for energy during a workout. Depletion of this phosphocreatine can lead to muscular fatigue and fading muscle power. Supplementing with Twinlab Creatine Fuel Stack supplies your body with plenty of Creatine to help you achieve higher muscular strength, peak performance output and the mean mass gains that you are looking for.
The Science Behind the Size:
About TwinlabTwinlab has had had one simple and over-riding objective for nearly 30 years. To bring you products that are based on the latest science, and are manufactured to the highest level pharmaceutical standards.
This is Twinlab's mission for everything that has their name on it: vitamins, minerals, sports nutrition products, special formulas and amino acids. Twinlab's herbs are sold under the Nature's Herbs brand, and their herbal teas under the Alvita brand, but the commitment and standards are the same.
Twinlab's leadership is reflected in the firsts they have brought to the market:
But Twinlab is not only motivated to be first, they are driven to be best. Twinlab insists on their own manufacturing (trust can't be transferred), which takes place in their state-of-the-art facility in American Fork, Utah.
All told, Twinlab produces more than 500 different products. Why so many? Because everyone has their own needs, yet everyone has the same goal: to live healthier, to achieve wellness, to derive the maximum quality of life each and every day. To the extent Twinlab helps you achieve this, they consider it a privilege.

MADISON, WI (WTAQ) - The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources reports the unseasonably cold weather has delayed the sturgeon spawning season.
State biologists say this shouldn't impact the survival rate of sturgeon eggs, but it could be a factor in the size of the fish.
The sturgeon had taken over the Wolf River for spawning well before the end of March last year. That hasn't happened this year.
Pike and walleye spawning is also about two weeks late.
Forecasters are offering hope the fish will be moving in soon as temperatures get warmer.

For more information on MERIT Awards and for a list of all NCI researchers who have received this award, see http://cancer.gov/researchfunding/MERIT.
NCI Hosts Science Writers' Seminar
Scientists are creating a groundbreaking new research infrastructure that has the potential of fundamentally changing how cancer research is conducted. Through a partnership with the cancer community, NCI is developing a biomedical electronic informatics network that will generate a library of interoperable cancer research tools and data. NCI director Dr. Andrew von Eschenbach will speak at the seminar. Dr. Ken Buetow will give an overview of caBIG, Dr. Jo Anne Zujewski will discuss early-phase breast cancer clinical trials and describe the grid's value for clinicians conducting those trials, and Dr. Howard Fine will discuss how this initiative will support a national protocol for molecular diagnostics of brain tumor samples.
Space is limited to credentialed press only, but everyone can view the seminar via a live Webcast at http://www.ConnectLive.com/events/nci.
Scientists Focus on Tobacco Products
While there is increasing interest by both pharmaceutical and tobacco companies in developing products that decrease the health risks in smokers, there currently are no standard methods to conduct studies to assess risk reduction from these products, nor is there agreement regarding which biomarkers should be assessed to determine whether the use of new products actually decreases risk.
The introduction of these products and the fact that approximately 440,000 people in the United States die of tobacco-related diseases each year underscores the need to develop new product testing methods and validated biomarkers of exposure and harm. Investigators interested in pursuing these questions are encouraged to review two reports relevant to these issues. The first is a report from the Institute of Medicine, Clearing the Smoke: The Science Base for Harm Reduction. The second is the NCI Monograph, Risks Associated with Smoking Cigarettes with Low Machine-Measured Yields of Tar and Nicotine. Dr. Peter Shields of the Lombardi Cancer Center discussed many of the complex scientific challenges facing investigators in an article in the Oct. 2, 2002 Journal of the National Cancer Institute.

Book Description:
When I was twenty-three years old, five months out of college, with a degree in music, and without any idea of what to do with myself, I took a job as a policeman in Wellfleet, Massachusetts, and resolved to stay with it for a year because I thought it would do me good. I was lonely much of the time, as well as scared, surprised, excited, embarrassed, self-righteous, and many other things, too. I spent hours at a stretch hoping nothing serious would happen when I was working alone; I never quite shook the feeling that I was a fraud; and on several occasions, when it all seemed to be too much, I meant to quit, but I never did. -Alec WilkinsonAbout the AuthorAlec Wilkinson has been a staff writer at the New Yorker for many years, and also contributes to such magazines as DoubleTake, Esquire, and Rolling Stone. He is the author of five books, including Moonshine: A Life in Pursuit of White Liquor."His reporter's eye for detail is omnivorous...ear for voices is fine and precise and his perceptions of and compassion for his fellow officers are profound. Never patronizing, never amused at their expense; he portrays them as they are: underpaid, underappreciated rural Americans struggling to make it from day to day."-New York Times Book Review"Midnights portrays the voices and routines of believable men... he conveys his experiences with wisdom and sophistication."-Chicago Tribune

Blue Book® Suggested Retail Value
Fuel Economy (city/hwy)
This 2005 review is representative of model years 2000 to 2006.
By Dan Jedlicka of MSN Autos
Bottom Line:
BMW improves the X5 to keep it one of the best premium sport-utility vehicles.
It shouldn't be surprising that BMW's X5 is the sportiest midsize sport-utility vehicle because, after all, it is a BMW.
What about the rival Porsche Cayenne sport ute, you say? Frankly, although the top Cayenne is more powerful with its 450-horsepower turbocharged V8 than the top-line 2005 X5 4.8is, it looks bland next to any version of the X5.
Moreover, the X5 4.8is has a non-turbo 355-horsepower V8, which makes it extremely fast. Only the turbocharged higher-horsepower Cayenne is faster in the premium midsize sport-ute field. And that Porsche costs $88,900, compared to $70,100 for the 4.8is.
Three Trim Levels
While no version of the X5 is inexpensive, resale value is high and it offers plenty of driving enjoyment, which is something no dollar figure can be put on.
Besides the Cayenne, the only serious rivals to the X5 4.8is are the 315-horsepower Infiniti FX45 V8, which costs about $44,000, and the 320-horsepower version of the new Cadillac SRX, priced at $50,135.
While fast, the SRX can't match acceleration of the X5 4.8is or turbocharged Cayenne, although the Cadillac is more comfortable than those German sport utes.
Passing Up Easy Money
The X5 got major improvements for 2004. They included a standard 6-speed manual gearbox for the entry 3.0-liter 225-horsepower 6-cylinder version and a new 6-speed automatic transmission for the V8 versions.
There also were a new all-wheel-drive system for better traction and handling, more power for the 4.4-liter V8 and introduction of the sizzling 4.8is version to replace the 4.6is. Also, the X5 got a freshened exterior design, with a new front end and taillights, along with new wheel designs and more equipment.
Changes for Latest Versions
The 4.4i has leather upholstery, rear climate control and 18-inch wheels, versus the 3.0i's 17-inch wheels. The 4.8is also has heated front/rear seats, power sunroof and such items as side sunshades and a sport suspension with an adjustable ride height feature. Also standard are 20-inch wheels, although the full-size spare tire is deleted.
Fairly Slow for the Money
The X5 V8s provide so much power and torque that a manual gearbox would be superfluous for them. They're priced as luxury vehicles, which usually are regarded as "automatic-transmission-only" vehicles and thus come only with a responsive 6-speed automatic transmission.
No Fuel Misers
All X5s have an all-wheel-drive system not meant for rugged off-road use, although they have a Hill Descent Control, which intervenes at low speeds to help a driver maintain speed down steep grades.
Nicely Equipped
Safety items include front-seat side airbags and front/rear head-protecting side-curtain airbags.
I anticipated that the stiffer suspension, larger wheels and wider tires of a 4.8is I tested would hurt ride quality, but the ride remained supple on rough roads.
All BMW models get power steering that is arguably the best among mass-produced vehicles, so the X5 steered with typical BMW accuracy and quickness.
Sports Sedan Feel
There's good room for four tall adults, who sit high. But sliding in and out requires extra effort, and rear doorways should be larger.
Front seats are very supportive, and instruments can be quickly read. But the small audio and climate controls call for a driver to take eyes off the road.
Nifty Touches
Nicely located front cupholders have a sliding cover, and all doors have handy storage pockets, although the covered front console storage bin is small.
There's no need to grope for the outside hood release lever because a handy small release lever pops out of the top of the grille area when the inside hood release is activated. This feature is especially appreciated in pouring rain.
The tailgate has a separate-opening glass area, but the wide cargo opening is high.
No third-row seat is offered, but the cargo area is pretty large, and flipping the rear seatbacks forward provides appreciably more cargo room.
As always, the X5 is for those who would like a fun-to-drive sports sedan but want the convenience of a sport-utility vehicle—and a prestigious nameplate.

Place the fruit on a cutting board lined with parchment. Trim the tops and bottoms of the melons and pineapple and sit them upright on the cutting board. Using a very sharp knife, cut away the rind, slicing lengthwise, working your way around the fruit. Cut about 24 very thin slices of melon in the same fashion, slicing from top to bottom, allowing the juices to collect on the parchment paper.
Slice the pineapple lengthwise into 1/8-inch slices. Pile and cut into matchsticks.
Pour the juices that have collected into a small bowl. Stir in the honey and set aside.
To assemble the fruit sushi, lay the melon slices vertically on the cutting board. Place 3 pineapple matchsticks horizontally at the base of the melon slice and roll. Trim the base so that the rolls sit firmly on a dessert plate. Serve with the honey dipping sauce.
Delicious! Check out our recipe for fruit sushi! We make all natural fruit wraps! http://www.newgemfoods.com/recipesReply

Health and Society Research Group
Starts: 23 February 2011
Wednesday 23th February, 12 - 1pm, Seminar Room (1 - 3 Museum Place)
Health and Society research group
We are delighted to welcome Professor Karen Henwoodand Fiona Shirani who will be giving a talk entitled The Men as Father's Study: Exploring Contemporary Parenting Culture.
Please feel free to bring your lunch, we will aim to be finished by 12.50pm so people wishing to attend the Childhood Research Group at 1pm can do so.
This presentation introduces the Men as Fathers project; a social psychological and qualitative longitudinal investigation into transition and change in the lives of men as first-time fathers. We will discuss the work of the project to-date and present some of our dissemination materials before moving on to consider our most recent work on intensive parenting culture. In recent years, academics have shown interest in the phenomenon of intensive or hyper-parenting, which has predominantly focussed on mothers as primary caregivers. In this paper we seek to move beyond approaches which invoke a maternal lens in order to consider ways in which parenting may be experienced as intensive by fathers.

actually it's until my next birthday (Jan 3rd)…
Because I promised to the universe I wouldn't dye my hair for 1 year in exchange for something and since I got it, I can't break my promise or else I might lose what I got…
actually it's until my next birthday (Jan 3rd)…
A glass of snake blood that my mother's mother gave me as a part of a ritual for me to grow stronger and beat the sun allergies I had when I was a child.
I usualy only wash my hair every other day cuz water and shampoo can really dry out your hair.
also I started using this stuff (but I'm not sure if you can get it in the U.S.) and from the very first time I could see and feel the difference my hair is shiny and strong and all silky and shiet
after I get outta the shower I use Organix coconut milk anty breakage oil (I would looooove to use the whole hair system thing but it is oh so expensive and I am oh so poor) and once a month I warm (JUST WARM! DON'T BURN YA SCALP!) up about half a cup of olive oil then pour it on my head and take a towel dipped in the hot water and wrap it around my hair and leave it on until the towel is cold, then I hop in the shower, double shampoo (no conditioner) and blow dry it.
You'll be looking and feeling all fab n shiet
I don't have pets, I'm allergic to cats.
But if I could have any I would have something sexy like this fellah right hurr:
I don't own a camera :(
You're doing it wrong
The rigged Mexican presidential elections is what happened…
The "official" elected president Enrique Peña Nieto murdered his wife, ordered the massacre, rape and brutal beating of protesters in Atenco, he bought his way into the presidency, he is backed by one of the biggest political crooks Mexico has ever seen, is married to a Telenovela star who calls Mexican people "Indios" "revoltosos "flojos" on her personal twitter, his daughter called the Mexican people "prole" "pendejos" "envidiosos" when her daddy EPN was criticized for not being able to come up with 3 books when asked to name 3 book that influenced his life (he just said "the bible, some parts of it and another one that I'm reading right not but I can't remember the name) oh and this was at a book fair….
The people HATE him and they do not recognize him as the president of Mexico because in the age of the camera, this electoral fraud is well documented allover Mexico, there are protests, black blocks, manifestations, marches, etc to call his shit out.
The spirit of love in which all relationships bask revealed that if you loved someone you needn't ask

The Defense Department announced today that it has approved a military commissions trial at Guantanamo Bay for Khalid Sheik Mohammad and four co-defendents who are all accused of being "responsible for the planning and execution of the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001." According to the DOD press release, the Office of Military Commissions "referred the case to a capital military commission, meaning that, if convicted, the five accused could be sentenced to death." The accused were charged in 2008 but those charges were later dropped in 2010 as part of an Obama administration plan to try the defendants in federal courts. After widespread opposition to that proposal, Attorney General Eric Holder announced that he was sending the case back to the military.

(RNN) - The founder of the anti-bullying campaign It Gets Better has apologized for using an expletive after Christian journalism students walked out of his speech, but not for the message behind the remark.
Dan Savage was speaking at the conference in Seattle in mid-April when he began discussing how the Bible treats homosexuality. Savage said it is important to ignore the "bull(expletive)" in the Bible about gay people because society ignores that women should be stoned if they're not virgins and that slavery is OK.
"The Bible is a radically pro-slavery document. Slave owners waved Bibles over their heads during the Civil War and justified it," Savage said. "The shortest book in the New Testament is a letter from Paul to a Christian slave owner about owning his Christian slave. And Paul doesn't say, 'Christians don't own people.' Paul talks about how Christians own people."
About 100 students got up and walked out of the auditorium when he began discussing the Bible.
"You can tell the Bible guys in the hall that they can come back now, because I'm done beating up the Bible," Savage said after the walk-out. "It's funny, as someone who's on the receiving end of beatings that are justified by the Bible, how pansy-(expletive) some people react when you push back."
He apologized later in his speech for using the term, "pansy(expletive)."
However, that did not placate the backlash.
Conservative groups, such as Citizen Link, the public policy affiliate for Focus on the Family, are angry at Savage, and are accusing him of being the bully for not being tolerant of Christianity.
"It's too bad the Christian kids left the hall. They're supposed to be journalists, and we in the journalism biz must often dirty our ears with others' distasteful utterances," a post on Towleroad, a gay advocacy blog.
On his blog, Savage apologized for his choice of words – but not for his remarks at the conference.
"All Christians read the Bible selectively. Some read it hypocritically - and the hypocrites react very angrily when anyone has the nerve to point that out," Savage said on his blog.

What is better than a juicy hunk of grass fed meat? A juicy hunk of grass fed meat with a marrow bone in the center of course! The other day Bill and I were completely stumped on what to have for dinner. We are up to our eyeballs in stuff to do for book promotion, and we still have a freezer full of goodies from US Wellness Meats that we need to tackle. However, we are mentally fried, so we are hanging on to our USWM goodies until we are in a better mental place.
One of our whirlwind days this week allowed for a much-needed trip to our happy place (aka Whole Foods). We love shopping together, and the local farmers market is probably our number one happy place, but there is something about our trips to Whole Foods together that takes us out of our stress zones, and allows us to just enjoy the fun of food shopping. Bill and I have some of our best "business meetings" walking through the aisles of Whole Foods. We talk about what we need to accomplish during the week, we talk about things we want to visualize happening in the near future, and most importantly — we are in foodie inspiration central, being surrounded by all the fresh foods (vegan frankenfood aside, of course).
So we were utterly swamped with work this week, but we did have a window of opportunity to head out for a bit to try to grasp some inspiration for something to make for dinner. We probably stood at the meat counter for 10 minutes, brains fried, before we spotted the beef shanks-boldy labeled "Grass Fed" in front of them. I personally had been dying to try beef shanks, and we couldn't pass up these gorgeous steaks. We quickly grabbed the last of the shanks from the counter, along with a couple of other ingredients we needed for the recipe, and headed home with another thing added to our list for the day, a recipe for the blog.
It's funny how things happen. We went off to the store to find something simple to make for dinner to keep our stress low, and it ended up turning into a brand new recipe for the blog. We kept things simple, as we always do. 'The less you touch the meat, the better' is our motto (Our friends at Modern Paleo Warfare are probably having a good laugh right now), especially with quality meats, so just a few spices and fresh herbs is enough for our taste. This recipe is probably THE best beef recipe we have made…I'm sure we have said this before, so this will be THE best beef recipe we have made, until our next best recipe…
- 2-4 beef shanks
- 1 fist garlic-half the cloves smashed and chopped, the other half sliced in half
- Thyme, one bunch. Two tablespoons worth of leaves should be removed from the stems, remaining thyme should be thrown into the baking pan whole.
- 1 cup of Imagine beef broth
- 1/2 cup water
- 1-2 tablespoons coconut oil
- Salt and pepper
- Preheat oven to bake at 350.
- Rinse shanks under cold water and pat dry.
- Sprinkle shanks with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Heat 1/2 tablespoon coconut oil in a cast iron skillet on medium high heat.
- Sear shanks in coconut oil 2-3 minutes per side, adding a bit more coconut oil to the skillet as needed for each additional shank.
- Place seared shanks in pyrex baking dish.
- Saute the smashed/chopped garlic,and thyme leaves in the skillet for about 1 minute.
- Add broth/water to skillet and stir making sure to scrape up any of the brown bits from the shanks on the bottom. Bring to a boil until liquid starts to reduce slightly.
- Place remaining garlic cloves and additional thyme springs in pan with shanks.
- Pour broth over shanks.
- Cover with parchment paper and then aluminum foil.
- Bake at 350 for 2 hours.
As always, enjoy!

"Hey, sports fans, think you're tough? Then try out a growing Portuguese pastime that is like playing rugby with a runaway refrigerator. It's bull tackling, and nearly 1,000 enthusiasts, or "forcados," from all walks of life love to jump into the ring for a head-on collision with a maddened bull. A mixture of sport, spectacle, high testosterone machismo, male bonding and, some say, art, the rough-and-tumble event is as unique to Portugal as port wine or codfish ice cream," Reuters Lisbon chief correspondent Ian Simpson wrote in August 2005.
At the time, if anyone mentioned the notion of women trying out to be a "forcado" you would have said they were dreaming or had no idea of the inner workings of the Portuguese bullfighting world.
But six years later it is no longer a dream as a group of young and graceful women tackle the bulls in central Portugal.
In the past we've seen women on horseback — the woman matador — challenging the bulls, but now the last male bastion in the sport has become open for women too.
Wearing traditional stocking caps and red sashes, a forcado shouts "Touro! Touro! (Bull! Bull!) and jumps on a bleeding bull's head as he charges, while the seven other team members pile onto the animal until it is immobilized.

Okolona area residents can enjoy new recreational opportunities, thanks to $205,000 in improvements completed in Blue Lick Park.The park features a new asphalt walking path with benches, a new swingset, new bench-style swings, resurfaced basketball and tennis courts, a resurfaced and restriped parking lot, and a new drinking fountain.
A new $51,000 playground was added in 2006.
"Our City of Parks initiative isn't just focused on adding new parks – it's also about improving the many neighborhood parks we already have," said Mayor Jerry Abramson. "We're making a real difference with improvements like these in Blue Lick Park."
Most of the funding for the improvements was provided by Abramson, with support from Metro Councilwoman Madonna Flood (D-24). Flood provided $47,500 from her capital improvement fund. Work took place over the last six months.
"Blue Lick Park is already a wonderful place for families and those who just want to enjoy a nice quiet place during any time of day," Flood said. "These improvements will promote a healthy lifestyle and at the same time be an invitation to newcomers to the park to experience what so many people already enjoy."
Since merger, Metro Parks has completed 271 capital projects worth $38.5 million. An additional 65 projects are underway.
Blue Lick Park is a 26-acre park located at 4114 Mudd Ln. It was created in 1977.

The workers come out like they're giving away the new iPhone 5 with the line cheering like they're rock stars.
Kylee Leonetti was first in line, waiting since 10:30 on Thursday night. After handing over the cash for the coveted gold iPhone 5, it's as if she won the lottery.
"It's more of a champagne color, so if you can get your paws on one, I recommend it, "Leonetti said. "My friends know I'm gonna have it on the first day, always.
The iPhone's are all the same, whether at the Uptown store, or the Mall of America.
With all this excitement, a lot of us still don't get it. We decided to ask an expert, but he was right there in line with the rest of them.
"I actually happened to be standing in line this morning, and I myself got the iPhone 5s." Dr. Sujit Varma said.
Dr. Varma says there's nothing unhealthy about it, it's just a passion for being first. He compares it to the hunter gatherer mentality.
"Don't you think it's fun to like go out and stalk your prey, and then catch and eat it. So there's a certain demographic that love that kind of stuff, and those are the kind of people that actually stand in line."

Instead of heading out to play after school as a kid, Ron Stephan spent afternoons in his mother's kitchen, rolling chicken cordon bleu for the catering business she ran from their home. Today, Ron continues his family tradition of freshness at his own restaurant, Ricetta's, where every dish is made from scratch daily. "I guarantee you my freezer is smaller than your freezer at home," Ron says with a laugh, "unless you have a really small freezer."
The restaurant's accolades speak for themselves. Since it opened in 1989, Ricetta's has won the Maine Sunday Telegram's readers' poll for best pizza a whopping 20 years in a row, as well as earning a spot on USA Today's 51 great pizza parlors in 2010. At its current location, which it has occupied since 2000, two hand-built brick ovens fire up each pizza, giving the crust a crisp outside and a soft, pillowy center.
Though the food is crafted with care, the lifeblood of Ricetta's, according to Ron, is its employees, many of whom have been with him for over 10 years. They have helped create all of the menu's dishes, including the Bolto pizza, loaded with pesto, roasted chicken, and broccoli, and named after the manager who would make it for himself for lunch every day. Ricetta's first employee, Skip, lends his name to the popular linguini Scipollo, which he fashioned from chicken, sometimes shrimp, with prosciutto and tomatoes in lemon-cream sauce. To show his gratitude, Ron celebrates each staff member's anniversary by printing a mention in the newsletter and cooking them a pizza with monogrammed pepperoni slices.
Cavorters of all ages caper about Joker's Family Fun and Games's massive indoor play zone, which is stocked with games and attractions that inspire climbing and sliding. Kids can scramble into the three-tiered A-Maze-Zing playhouse to navigate tubes, web bridges, and conference rooms, and toddlers can maneuver through the mini maze or hop aboard the train ride for a sightseeing jaunt around the tracks. Future adults can challenge one another in sundry classic arcade games such as skee-ball and air hockey, and more than 50 video games await thumbs desperate to win garlands of exchangeable tickets. Whippersnappers achieve liftoff in lieu of jetpack overalls on a Jolly Jump air bounce then safely glide down a 22-foot inflatable super slide. At the 14,000-square-foot Portland location, youngsters can also blast comrades in a space-age laser-tag zone, scale a towering rock-climbing wall, and master putting skills on an 18-hole mini-golf course. After extreme bouts of frolicking, families can quell tummy rumbles with slices of housemade pizza slathered in Joker's signature sauce or peek at the menu to peruse sandwiches, burgers, and chicken tenders.
At more than a dozen locations throughout the northeast, ScrubaDub Auto Wash Centers' computerized wash tunnels and detailing pros spiff up cars with advanced technology and minimal environmental impact. The robotic wash systems and photoelectric sensors not only clean finishes with a gentle, soft-cloth technique, but they can target white walls, wheels, and chrome with site-specific formulas. The eco-savvy automated systems also consume less water than home washing and recycle the water used to clean the wheels and undercarriage. Biodegradable SuperGlo soap keeps the run-off free of harmful compounds before it is funneled down the proper treatment channels, where it can't pollute neighborhood storm drains or be used to test the resiliency of carnival goldfish.
The centers' innovative equipment and Earth-friendly practices have earned them the title of Best Car Wash from CityVoter for three years running. Some locations also boast separate interior cleaning bays to address filthy dashboards and seats.

SPOKANE -- Spokane Police are searching for a driver who slammed his car into another vehicle and then took off on Wednesday night. Washington State Patrol spent hours investigating the crash which happened on Highway 195 at Thorpe.
Paramedics took the driver who was hit to the hospital with serious injuries. The victim said he barely released that his car had been hit.
"I didn't even have time to react," said Mahmud Al-Hafian, "so I ended up hitting the car on the side at full speed. I didn't even have chance to hit the brake."
Deputies said the driver who caused the wreck was traveling east on Thorpe, failed to yield and crashed into Al-Hafian's SUV. Al-Hafian was headed north on the highway at the time of the wreck.
Deputies said Al-Hafian was wearing a seatbelt at the time.
Investigators said the vehicle they are looking for is possibly a white Subaru Legacy with right front corner and window damage, and a flat right tire.

I'm thinking about doing a little giveaway for some of my followers
It'll be something fashion-related of course. Maybe a few fashion books or some form of clothing (unworn, obviously)!
Reblog if you're interested :) if I get enough reblogs then I'll do it in the next few weeks! It'll literally be a case of picking a name (or in this case, a blog) out of a hat - so there's no favouritism!

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - The City has made the Operation Timber Strike! website more user friendly so Sioux Falls residents can better determine when tree and branch removal crews will be in their neighborhoods.
Director of Public Works Mark Cotter says the interactive map is searchable by address. He says it'll zoom to your location and essentially give you the color of what the city expects to do this week or next week. He encourges residents to take advantage of the new map.
Cotter says the map has information on neighborhoods that received an initial cleaning pass, neighborhoods where crews are working and where they expect to be later in the week.
Cotter admits that today's weather will slow progress.

The Internal Revenue Code imposes several excise taxes to help fund FAA, including a 7.5 percent tax on amounts paid for the transportation of a person for domestic air transportation. This tax applies to fees such as for peak/holiday travel and unaccompanied minors, but does not apply to many other fees, including fees for checked baggage.Airline executives really aren't persistent willful idiots. They're clever, tax avoiding sonsofbitches.

Agriculture in South Florida is unique in many ways, from our subtropical climate and challenging limestone soils to the diverse cultural preferences served by growers here. With climate change, sea level rise, and changing preferences and economic realities, agriculture can be expected to change dramatically in South Florida in the coming years.
To help train a new generation of agriculturalists, Fairchild has joined in the Florida-Caribbean Consortium for Agricultural Education, a USDA funded partnership that includes St Thomas University, Miami-Dade College, Universidad Interamerican in Puerto Rico, the USDA, and is led out of Florida International University. This program provides scholarships to 50 college students in agricultural fields, with a particular emphasis on South Florida and the Caribbean.
Fairchid's particpation in this program ties together two strengths at the garden: educational outreach and research. Students from the Fairchild Challenge are strongly encouraged to consider the scholarship and training opportunities in agriculture, ecology, nutrition and related fields at local universities.
Fairchild has a rich history of agricultural research, and remains active, with current projects in areas such as development of new fruit varieities suited to our climate and soils, the examination of consequences of domestication in garbanzo beans and pigeonpea, and the study of diversity of plant-associated benefical soil microbes in South Florida soils. College students in the fccage program have the opportunity to participate in Fairchild's research and educational outreach programs as research assistants and interns.
Please contact Dr Eric von Wettberg for more details.

How does being left-handed affect our learning and brain?
Hello, everyone. :)
I've been left-handed all my life and I come from a country where this was punished shortly before I was born.
(I can call myself lucky I guess :)
Since early age I've been good at languages and it hasn't stopped. :)
So I was wondering:
Are you left-handed?
How did it affect you?
Was it important throughout your education?
How do you think it affects learning anyway?
Please, share your thoughts and aspirations. :)
Thank you! Just a thought:

Jul 10 2013: You are welcome Silvia .....you know in my culture to a sister , brother is always "right" ( good similarity !) however between brothers both are " right" so understand what can happen at the end.
Similarity is there also my elder one who is right handed seems very logical , applies reasoning even when in his painting drawing he so.... While younger one has clear inclination with painting , drawing , tries to write stories , rhymes and applies lots of imagination when is studying his science books for his school. May be these are just coincidental similarities .
Have a good day
