Tsk, tsk. After all the requests to plz email me teh codez, and the Daily WTF community's failure to recognize student initiative, "MonkeyCode" posted a similar story in the sidebar...
We're looking for some new developers on our team here at our online travel reservation startup. London being London at the moment, it's proving hard to get good quality candidates to actually show up for an interview. Little did we know how bad the quality can be at times.
We have a coding test that we give to potential hires. Not terribly hard, it's just a simple string manipulation exercise: Given a string, find all occurences of a substring without using any in built string functions. Obviously you'd never do this in real life, but your run of the mill Teach Yourself C# in 24 Hours developer could probably give it a shot and fool us.
It does however, weed out a suprisingly large number of people — either their code doesn't compile, it doesn't work, or somtimes they just don't read the instructions and submit finger paintings instead.
The other day, a "friend" of one of our workmates pointed out the question had been posted to the MSDN forums.
This is technically not a WTF — posting to forums can be a valuable source of information. Proving how clueless you are in a public forums, however, is.
There are a couple of classic responses in there, none really good enough for our potential hire, so he had a follow up post the next day asking for more help on the problem.
Being the masochists that we are, we couldn't help but look up some of our potential hire's other questions and found this beauty:
So many WTFs, so little time!
Plz post teh codes in the comments.
I once got asked "given two points, how would you find the distance between them?"
My brain went into overdrive trying to find the hidden meaning behind the question. Were they talking three-dimensional points? Are the points moving? Are they some sort of weird hyper-points?
I hesitantly responded, "The square root of delta x squared plus delta y squared?" The interviewer nodded and told me, "You'd be amazed at how many people have trouble with that."
From the same dude, even more scary IMHO:
Everything looks like a nail, when you have a new hammer...

PISCATAWAY, N.J. (August 29, 2013) – The Rutgers women's soccer team continues its 2013 slate on Friday, Aug. 30, when the Scarlet Knights (2-0) welcome Delaware (0-2) to Piscataway for a 7 p.m. match at Yurcak Field. RU will continue its first full weekend at home with a 1 p.m. Sunday match against Fordham, which will be broadcast live on RVision presented by AT&T on scarletknights.com.
Rutgers looks to improve to 3-0 for ninth time and 4-0 for the sixth time in the program's 30-year history.
The team enters its weekend competition after posting a 2-0 opening weekend that saw a pair of Scarlet Knights achieve career firsts. Freshman Madison Tiernan (Voorhees, N.J.) and junior Sara Corson (Metuchen, N.J.) each tallied their first career points over the weekend, with Corson becoming the first RU player to record a five-point match (2g, 1a) in two seasons.
Tiernan scored her first career goal in RU's season-opening, 1-0 victory over Drexel at Yurcak Field and recorded her first assist in the 3-2 win at Army. Both were selected to the American Athletic Conference Weekly Honor Roll on Aug. 26 .
Redshirt senior Jess Janosz (Ringwood, N.J.) earned two wins and one shutout to bump her career record to 8-3. The netminder owns 167:25 consecutive minutes of scoreless soccer through RU's first two matches.
Delaware visits Yurcak Field looking for its first win of the 2013 season after dropping a pair of close matches to start the year. St. John's narrowly defeated the Blue Hens, 2-1, in their season-opener, as the Red Storm's Morgan Tinari scored the game-winner in the 79th minute for the victory. Monmouth topped Delaware, 1-0, in its second match with a goal in the 41st minute. Despite seven shots on goal, the Blue Hens could not break through for the game-tying score in regulation.
Michelle McEnroe owns UDel's only goal through two matches, while goalkeeper Jessica Levy has recorded nine saves en route to a 1.50 goals against average (GAA). Delaware head coach Scott Grzenda is in his 24th season at the helm of the Blue Hens. Grzenda welcomes back 14 letterwinners and four starters from the 2012 squad that advanced to the quarterfinals of the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) Tournament.
Fordham will venture "On the Banks" also looking for its first tally in the win column. The Rams suffered a heartbreaking 2-1 loss in overtime to open the season against Manhattan, despite outshooting the Jaspers, 25-9. The team then suffered a setback in its second match, losing, 5-0, to St. John's in Queens, N.Y.
Kristina Makusuti leads the Rams with one goal on seven shots, with Mary Solimine recording five shots through two matches. Both Megan Fitzgerald and Ally White have seen time in between the pipes for head coach Ness Selmani, as Fitzgerald and White boast a 0.97 and 6.00 GAA, respectively.
The match, slated for 1 p.m. at Yurcak Field, will be broadcast live on RVision, presented by AT&T. Danny Breslauer and Kyle Franko will be on the call.

Every year in late May, Klein Flottbek, a Hamburg suburb not far from the river Elbe, hosts the German Show Jumping and Dressage Derby. The Derby's show jumping course, including the notorious 'Pulvermann's Grave' obstacle course, has remained unchanged since 1920 and is regarded as one of the most challenging courses in the world. Unsurprisingly then, the meet is also one of the stages on the international DKB-Riders Tour. A special feature of the dressage derby is the exchange of horses in the final round, whereby each competitor has to take to the ring on the horse of one of his opponents.

What is Undergraduate Research?
At Carolina, we define undergraduate research as mentored, self-directed work that enables individual students or small groups of students to explore an issue of interest to them, and communicate the results to others. The projects involve inquiry, design, investigation, research, scholarship, discovery, application, writing and/or performance to a greater or lesser degree depending on the topic. There is often an immediate connection to a local, national, or international issue, and an increasing appreciation of the value of multidisciplinary approaches.
HHMI-UNCCH Learning Communities
OUR directs three programs that are supported in part by a grant to UNC-Chapel Hill from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute through the Precollege and Undergraduate Science Education Program. As described in the Learning Communities Executive Summary, these programs are designed to ensure that bright students from all walks of life can participate in Carolina's vibrant research culture and can then go on to become leading scientists, clinicians, teachers, and citizens.

Here's the newest Rihanna video for "Where Have You Been." The song is what you'd expect (hear one Rihanna song, hear all Rihanna songs), as is the video (yes, Rihanna is very sexy), which is great for those of us who like what she's done in the past. As for the rest of us, we are just going to have to deal with it because I'm sure we'll be hearing a lot of this song in the coming months.

Child Safety Presentations and Publications
A Message from the New York State Attorney General for New York's Parents
The Internet is an immense and valuable resource that unlocks a world of possibilities. Today both adults and children are using the Internet to research a wide array of issues - colleges, health plans, and employment opportunities, among many others. Our kids, however, are also using the Internet as an online playground. They socialize, post pictures and videos, play video games, and share experiences with friends.
Unfortunately, strangers also have access to these conversations, pictures, and videos. When our kids are online, they can be exposed to real dangers - among them, pornography, sexual predators, identity theft, and cyberbullying. As parents, we can help our kids take advantage of the Internet without falling victim to its risks.
This is why I have made the online safety of children a top priority. My office has created educational materials with the Netsmartz Workshop®, a resource of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children. This presentation provides vital information that will help you have a conversation with your child about how to safely enjoy the digital world. By working together, we can keep our kids safer.
- Your Child's D.I.G.I.T.A.L. Life
A presentation for parents on online safety created by the Attorney General's Office. To arrange for a presentation by an Attorney General representative in your community, please call (212) 416-6044.
- Internet Safety Tips for Parents
The key to protecting children online is for their parents and guardians to talk to them about the dangers that exist and set rules for Internet use. Please download this online safety booklet to bring home and use when talking to your children about how to stay safe when surfing the Internet

Blue Book® Suggested Retail Value
Fuel Economy (city/hwy)
2001 Acura MDX
This 2001 review is representative of model years 2001 to 2006.
By Dan Jedlicka of MSN Autos
Bottom Line:
New, upscale MDX is among the best car-like sport utilities.
The sport-utility-vehicle market has become so crowded that it has reached the point where it takes a really good one to stand out. The midsize 2001 Acura MDX is such a sport ute.
Honda took plenty of time developing the 7-passenger MDX for its upscale Acura division. It has sold the SLX sport utility, but that was a rebadged Isuzu Trooper.
Conservative Styling
The MDX costs approximately $35,000, which makes it price-competitive with other high line midsize competitors such as the all-wheel-drive Lexus RX 300 and Mercedes-Benz ML320.
Distinctive All-Wheel Drive
Unique Rear Seats
In fact, the second-row seat, which has room for three adults, also splits and folds into the cargo area, which is a sport-utility "first."
The third-row seat doesn't allow much cargo area behind it when in its normal position, and is best suited to children because legroom is scarce back there. It calls for extra effort to reach the third seat, but it isn't too difficult if you're fairly athletic. Not to mention that the second-row seat moves forward to allow entry to it.
The versatile seating can be easily reconfigured to accommodate one to seven people and a variety of cargo. Gardening and recreation equipment fits. So does a 6-foot ladder.
The utility of a sport-utility vehicle has become increasingly important as sport-ute competition has heated up, and Honda made sure the MDX is among the utility leaders in its market.
Thorough Climate Control
You get a lot for your money with the MDX. For one thing, it's loaded with equipment, including leather upholstery, heated front seats, power sunroof, cruise control, AM/FM/cassette with in-dash CD player, remote keyless entry, and the usual power accessories.
A $2,500 Touring package contains a power front passenger seat, special alloy wheels and a higher-line sound system. And the $2,000 navigation system is among the easiest to use.
Based on Odyssey Minivan
The SOHC engine has variable valve timing and 2-stage intake manifold to maximize output across its entire operating range. The V6 works with a 5-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission that upshifts seamlessly and downshifts quickly.
Lively Acceleration
Fuel economy is about what you'd expect with a heavy sport ute: an estimated 17 mpg in the city and 23 on the highway. But the automatic allows the V6 to loaf at 2000 rpm at 70 mph.
The MDX is almost as car-like as the Odyssey, helped by a firm-but-supple all-independent suspension and big tires on 17-inch alloy wheels. No need here to order an uplevel suspension and larger wheels and tires for better road manners.
The steering, ride, handling and braking should make most car owners feel at home. However, although it has good road feel, the steering initially called for too many small corrections near the on-center wheel position to keep the MDX in its lane. I got used to that quirk, but the brake pedal always was a little too touchy.
Safety is a big issue with sport utes, so Honda gave its new baby plenty of safety features to shout about. The MDX is designed to help avoid bumper override with cars in frontal impacts and to withstand a 35-mph rear impact with no intrusion into the third-row seating area.
Other safety features include anti-lock brakes and dual-stage frontal airbags.
Classy-looking chromed outside door handles make it easy to enter the MDX even with groceries in your arms, although a little extra effort is needed to climb in and out. A large hatch makes it easy to load the cargo area. And the prominent interior grab handle, which can be yanked to help close the hatch, is a nice touch that will be appreciated over the long run.
High-Quality Interior
However, the front console storage bin partly gets in the way of the two console-mounted cupholders and may lead to spills. And vanity mirrors on the back of the sun visors don't light up to, say, allow makeup to be applied unless headlights or running lights are on.
Like the Odyssey, the carefully conceived MDX should be a hit, even though it's several years late getting to the party.

Older Americans are disproportionately affected by chronic diseases and conditions, such as arthritis, diabetes and heart disease, as well as by disabilities that result from injuries such as falls. More than one-third of adults 65 or older fall each year. Twenty-one percent of the population age 60 and older – 10.3 million people – have diabetes. Seven of every 10 Americans who die each year, or more than 1.7 million people, die of a chronic disease. The need for programs that enable older adults to learn and practice healthy behaviors is critical.
Through collaboration with Health and Human Services Agencies, the National Council on Aging (NCOA), and philanthropic organizations, AoA has created national partnerships that have addressed the need for community-based health, prevention, and wellness programs. These evidence-based programs have been proven to increase self-efficacy, decrease health service utilization, and enable participants to adopt healthy self-management behaviors. The Administration on Aging's Health, Prevention, and Wellness Program:
Back to top
The primary goals of the Evidence-Based Disease and Disability Prevention Program are to: a) empower older persons to adopt healthy behaviors, improve health status, and manage chronic conditions better, and b) enable aging networks to have the capacity to deliver evidence-based programs. Additional information can be found on Evidence-Based Prevention Program Fact Sheet
During 2006-2007, AoA initiated its state-based EBDDP grant program. Through both public and private partnerships, 27 states have deployed evidence-based interventions whose primary focus is to help enable adults to maintain their health, wellness, and independence.
AoA has required each state to implement the Stanford University Chronic Disease Self-Management Program (CDSMP). In addition, each state participating in this grant program was required to select and implement one or more other evidence-based programs in the following subject areas:
AoA has funded NCOA to assist the Aging Services Network, federal partners and philanthropic funders in the implementation of self-management programs, as well as to help to ensure their fidelity to the original interventions. In addition, AHRQ and other national partners are planning substantial training efforts to strengthen the capacity of both public and private sector organizations to accelerate the development and implementation of evidence-based prevention programs for older adults.
In 2007, AHRQ, AoA, CDC, CMS, and HRSA created the Hispanic Elders Project. The metropolitan areas of Chicago, Ill., Houston, Texas; Los Angeles, Calif., McAllen, Texas; Miami, Fla.; New York, NY; San Antonio, Texas; and San Diego, Calif., were selected to take part in a pilot project launched to help communities work together to develop coordinated strategies for improving Hispanic elders' access to important benefits, including the new Medicare prescription drug and prevention benefits as well as low-cost evidence-based prevention programs, such as Stanford University's Chronic Disease Self-Management Program.
Each community team has developed and implemented a plan for addressing one or more health disparities. Many of the communities have identified diabetes as a primary issue of concern for their population. Hispanic elders have a higher incidence of certain chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease and arthritis, than the rest of the U.S. population. Twenty-one percent of Hispanic elders have diabetes compared to 14.3% of non-Hispanic whites. Hispanic elders are much more likely to be hospitalized for diabetes due to poor diabetes control, and they are far less likely to receive pneumonia or flu shots or participate in cancer screening services.
This initiative is based on findings from the National Healthcare Disparities Report 2006 prepared by AHRQ. This report finds that persistent and growing health disparities exist among Hispanic/Latino elders compared to the majority, non-Hispanic white older adult population.
There exists an increasingly critical need to provide Diabetes Self-Management Training (DSMT) to older adults. On a national level, 18% of all Medicare beneficiaries, or approximately 7 million older adults have diabetes. These individuals account for nearly 32% of all Medicare expenditures. Additionally, of the 200,000 individuals who enroll in Medicare each month, 40,000 have diabetes. As only approximately 3200 sites exist nationally which provide an American Diabetes Association (ADA) or American Association of Diabetes Educators (AADE) recognized DSMT program, it is obvious that in this instance, supply does not equal demand.
In partnership with the ADA, AADE, and Stanford University's Patient Education Research Center, the Administration on Aging is working to implement Stanford's DSMT Program in 14 community-based settings in an effort to provide outreach, education, and treatment to minority older adults who have been diagnosed with diabetes. While enabling Medicare beneficiaries to access their Medicare Part B prevention benefits, this collaborative will work to significantly reduce utilization outcomes among older adults engaged in the Stanford DSMT Program, while improving specific clinical measures associated with diabetes within targeted elder Hispanic and African American communities.
Community-based, peer-led DSMT programs have the opportunity to positively affect the lives of millions of Medicare beneficiaries who would normally lack access to such programs, or may feel uncomfortable participating in programs which take place within clinical environments. Through increasing access to DSMT programs by using existing Medicare benefits, millions of elderly will learn and adopt essential diabetes self-management techniques which will improve their lives.
The documents below provide additional background information on the EBDDPP.
There are a number of specific programs that AoA and its partners identified as meeting their criteria of being evidence-based and suitable for older adults. The following programs have training materials, tool kits and/or manuals readily available and have been successfully replicated by the aging network.
Additional programs, presentations and data, as well as other references regarding states and sites that have successfully implemented EBDDPP can be found on NCOA's website, at http://www.healthyagingprograms.org/

Acne in the 30s and onward
Posted 20 November 2006 - 10:53 AM
I know that retinols have good anti-aging properties, but they typically are de-activated (simplistically speaking) with BP. I definitely don't want to stop with BP and have my acne come back so I did some research. I found out that Diacneal isn't de-activated by BP. Diacneal is a retinol-based anti-acne product that also has the nice side-effect of smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles and improving skin texture, like retinols do.
I had used Diacneal on its own before, but it wasn't enough to keep my acne at bay. The DKR is definitely what works for me with my acne. So now I'm embarking on an experiment, modifying this one part of the regimen to see if I can keep the amazing benefits of the DKR while adding another benefit. We'll see. My new regimen is the DKR + Diacneal. I still cleanse with the DKR cleanser. I still put a few drops of jojoba on my freshly cleansed skin. I still apply the DKR BP twice a day in the same amount. But with the BP at night, I add a thin finger of Diacneal. Then I moisturize with Cetaphil Daily Facial Moisturizer. I used to use Neutrogena Healthy Skin Face Lotion at night, but I figured that it would probably be too irritating to use with the Diacneal.
I am not recommending that anyone follow this regimen, but I thought that some others in my boat (in their thirties, and onward, and still battling acne) might be interested in the thread. I'll let you know how this works for me.

Posted 20 November 2006 - 12:05 PM
I have been doing something similar for the same reasons. I've incorporated Green Cream level 6 at night, otherwise keeping the regimen the same. I'm hoping to keep the acne and aging process under control! lol.
Posted 21 November 2006 - 09:39 AM
Well, I got my answer. A few months ago, I got a spot on my jawline that was kind of like an ingrown hair. It had left a tiny lump that I had forgotten about until yesterday when it became slightly inflamed. But everything else is all good. The BP and Diacneal are playing well together. I know not to expect any of Diacneals benefits for at least a month so right now I'm just charting whether the DKR and Diacneal can play well together for we who are 30+.
So far, so good.

hey, good luck!

i'm also using bp and diacneal
i just don't use them at the same time
i apply bp in the morning and diacneal at night
is your skin feeling thinner now that u've started using diacneal?
Posted 04 December 2006 - 04:07 PM
No, I haven't noticed that my skin feels thinner. It actually feels plumper. I'd even say juicier, if I were talking about a ripe peach. I've only been using Diacneal for a couple of weeks, though, so maybe that might happen later.
I haven't noticed any sensitivity or adaptation to using the Diacneal, other than the darned initial break-out.

Posted 05 December 2006 - 09:48 AM
I was thinking that I would get spots on my forehead from the Diacneal initial break-out, but there is nothing there (so far) so I think I'm safe there.
The nodules (!) under my beard (one on my right chin and four along my right jawline) are slowly shrinking, and I'm thinking that they should be gone within a week or so. I can really see the skin turnover in that area in particular. The layers of skin over the spots are peeling. But only those areas are peeling, and I'm experiencing no dryness at all.
Again, I can't say enough how thankful I am for this site. I just wish that it had been available when I was a teenager. I've since pointed my niece here, though. She was lucky enough to inherit the family "curse" as well. Thanks, dad.

My skin feels so soft that I just want to keep touching it. I'm nearly 32, and I was starting to see lines around my eyes and on my forehead. They are a little smoother after the first couple of weeks. It's hard work, keeping up with a younger boyfriend.

I had one small spot on my forehead, but that was gone within a day. So I guess that I technically have no active spots, but the spots I had have made their lasting presence known. But with the accelerated skin cycle of the Diacneal, I expect my skin to be smooth and flawless again soon. My boyfriend said that my face felt like a baby's butt. Except for the scruff, that is.

When the crisp late-autumn air fills with Christmas music and the decorations on every door turn red and green, I start craving the old-fashioned comforts of drinking custard.
More commonly known down South as "boiled" custard and almost everywhere else as crème anglaise (how is it that things always sound more elegant in French?), this thin but silky-rich concoction has been a staple in Southern kitchens almost since the first boat landed at Jamestown in 1607.
In my family, enjoying it in its old-fashioned role as a drink has deep roots. I blame my older brother, Earle: he started it, becoming addicted the stuff as a toddler, long before I was even imagined. At the time, my parents were living in rural Kentucky where my father pastored a small church while he was in seminary in Louisville. In those parts, drinking custard was a longstanding tradition, not just at the holidays, but throughout the winter. My brother took to it like a cat takes to cream.
Back then, he was actually cute, and all the ladies in the community made spoiling him their main occupation. Knowing how much he loved custard, every Sunday morning one of these ladies would leave a still-warm mason jar of it between the screen and back door.
After Dad finished seminary and our family came back home, drinking custard came with us, and has remained a favorite late night treat ever since. When there was little more than a suggestion of chill in the air, just before bedtime we'd hear a welcome clang of pots, closely followed by the irresistible scent of warming milk and vanilla. Soon, we'd tumble downstairs to find Mama pouring steaming hot custard into odd, brightly colored melamine teacups.
We didn't really "drink" it, but lapped it up like soup with a spoon, rarely waiting for it to cool. I'd almost always burn my tongue on the first spoonful, but I don't remember caring very much.
The really wonderful thing about boiled custard is its versatility. It can be enjoyed warm or cold, and not just out of a cup: it's the perfect sauce for bread pudding, cooked fruit, and almost any pie that isn't custard-based. Many use it as an eggnog base, folding in whiskey, nutmeg, and sometimes a couple of cups of whipped cream. It can be made richer by using equal parts cream and milk or lightened up using only milk.
Drinking Custard (AKA "Boiled" Custard or Crème Anglaise)
Makes about 5 cups
3 cups whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
1 whole vanilla bean, or 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
8 large egg yolks
¾ cup sugar
Prepare the bottom of a double boiler with simmering water. Put the milk, cream, and if using, the vanilla bean in the top of a double boiler and bring it to a simmer over direct medium heat. Transfer it to the bottom half with its simmering water.
In a heatproof bowl, beat together the sugar and egg yolks until it is light and smooth and ribbons off the spoon. Slowly beat in a cup of the hot liquid to temper the eggs, then slowly beat the eggs into the hot milk and cream.
Cook, stirring constantly until the custard is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes. Take the top pot from the heat and continue stirring until it has cooled slightly, about 4 minutes more. Remove the vanilla bean, if used. Stir in the extract, if using, and if serving cold, stir until it is cooled, then let it cool completely and refrigerate until well-chilled.

Dear Paula, I treasure this recipé. Even though I've lived in Boston for more than half my life, I will always be a Middle Tennessean with family roots (pronounced "ruts"!) in West Tennessee. And for my people, boiled custard was and is a treasured family tradition for the holidays. Even among avowed Campbellite "teetotalers" out in the country, some "flavoring" (usually bourbon or Tennessee whiskey) was allowed in that custard cup during the festive season, as my family's history has confirmed. My Dad grew up in a strict Campbellite (meaning "The" Church of Christ, a very conservative branch of the Disciples of Christ) household in Carroll County, Tennessee. I won't go into all the strictures that were placed on a Church of Christ household, but you can imagine that having spirituous liquors in the house would have been a serious offense. Yet there was that bottle of Tennessee whiskey kept under the sink, for two reasons: One, for medicinal purposes, when a "hot toddy for the body" was called for; and Two, for use as "flavoring" at boiled custard time during the holidays. There was a great aunt that I never knew, who loved her flavored boiled custard to a high degree. Family lore has it that each time she would ask for a serving, she would always ask for "jes' a tetch more flavorin'" in her custard cup. I'd hate for an American Southern tradition like boiled custard to fade away, it's too important to the lives and stories of too many from my homeland whose family ties included this traditional holiday quaff.

You "transfer" the top of the double boiler which you just have been cooking on direct burner and set it in the bottom of the double boiler.
By Greg on December 10, 2013
Candie, At first, the top of the double boiler needs to be directly on the burner, then transfer it onto (not into- I was confused myself at first) the bottom half of the boiler.
By Joyce Duncan on December 05, 2012
This recipe is confusing ..what does it mean when it tells you to Transfer it to the bottom half with its simmering water. You cant mix it with the water...I dont understand at all.... if anyone knows what that means please email me.... Thanks...
By candie on December 17, 2011
Thanks, everyone, for your warm comments and memories. It's good to know that boiled custard is alive and well in the South. Stay tuned: next column we'll remember my grandfather's baked fresh ham, an un-cured leg of pork that he slow baked to perfection every Christmas.
By Damon Lee Fowler on December 12, 2010
I grew up in the midwest,my Mother made Custard every Christmas,she made it the same way, only she used evaporated milk, and after it cooled, she added a little Whiskey,we looked forward to the Custard every Christmas.
By Ernestine Carter on December 11, 2010
This sounds delicious! I just tried this when some friends came over last night. Thanks for sharing!

Growing up in Kentucky, I've been addicted to Boiled Custard for years. Around November, I start looking for it in stores. It is the only thing I drink out of the carton with. Now that I have you recipie, I will certainly give it a try. Hopefully, I will no longer have to wait until the holiday season to get my Boiled Custard "fix".
By JT Hulan on December 10, 2010
I grew up in Texas, and have my great-grandmother's boiled custard recipe, still use it on occasion. Very similar to this one. My grandmother and mother would make it when one of us had been sick. I think the idea was that it would be easy on the digestion and would provide strength for recovery. I like it no matter what, especially in winter, so thanks for reminding me that I need to whip up a batch.
By Kate on December 08, 2010
Awwwww what memories this brings to mind. I grew up in Texas, but we had "boiled custard" in the winter when I was a child. I love it!
By Debbie Sanders on December 07, 2010
Wow, you sure dug up some great memories for me! I could just taste the delicious treat. I too grew up in Kentucky and it was a holiday tradition for my family to have boiled custard. We had it every Christmas day. My Great Grandmother would make the custard and after her passing her two daughters (my Great Aunts) carried on the cooking of those wonderfully rich batches of the custard. We also drank it out of fancy cups and even had spoons alongside them. Since I have lived in CA (27 years) I have not had any of that delicious custard. Your article got my mouth watering. I am going to call my Great Aunt Nana who is now 87 and ask her for the family recipe. I think my CA family will have a bit of a very special Southern tradition as well as something passed down in our family this holiday season. I was lucky enough to inherit the fancy cups that we used when I was a child and what a better way to use them now than to fill them with boiled custard. Best wishes to all of you for the holidays!
By Annie Bookser on December 07, 2010
Sounds yummy to me! Wanted to say I love that the custard cup and saucer are sitting prettily upon a beautiful doily. (although it would be nicer if the doily was flipped over so it was right side up LOL) I love to make doilies and am so tickled to see a doily being used! :D
By Gramma Rita on December 07, 2010
Very interesting, I've never heard of this. Sounds very much like a warm eggnog. I'll have to try it.

1. Introduction
Although local IT staff should always be the first point of contact when you have an ailing machine, the OUCS Help Centre does have some capacity to help with non-booting or malfunctioning personal computers, both PCs and Macintoshes. Where the problems are caused by defective hardware, the Hardware Repair and Upgrade Services can often provide a cost-effective solution. In cases where the hardware is not damaged, the following steps can help to diagnose and fix a range of issues:
2. The Help Desk
- If the problem could be caused by a virus, adware or spyware, the Help Desk can try some basic tools for diagnosis and repair.
- In the case of non-booting XP machines Help Desk can try some of the steps on the OUCS XP fixing page.
- Network connection problems on machines which have been correctly registered in a department or college can also be checked at the Help Desk and problems such as misconfigured connections and blocked IP addresses eliminated.
3. The Expert Appointment
The primary purpose of this 30 minute appointment is the ensure that a quick and effective fix has not been overlooked. If the expert has ruled out hardware failure and cannot solve the problem within this time period, an operating system re-install will be the most effective remedy. The expert can provide information on performing a backup and operating system re-install yourself, or you can take advantage of the OUCS Backup and Re-Install Service.

CALGARY – Showcasing their talents on a gleaming ice pad at the Markin MacPhail Centre were two groups of hopefuls, all vying for a place on the Canadian Junior team. On a bordering sheet only a few steps away was an overflowing set of locked out NHL players.
The irony was striking.
While the ongoing work stoppage could infuse Team Canada with as much talent as it's seen since 2004-2005 – a dominant gold medal victory during the last lockout – an unmistakable air lingers for some. Those who might well have been rookies in the NHL this season have had to bury those thoughts for now and readjust their sights, toward their junior teams (save for Ryan Nugent-Hopkins) earlier this fall and now, toward an opportunity for gold with Canada in Ufa, Russia later this month.
Winnipeg Jets prospect Mark Scheifele grins.
"For a lot of the time I'd catch myself watching a lot of videos on the lockout, reading articles," said the Barrie Colts star, shredding the Ontario Hockey League with 21 goals and 48 points this season. "But I just thought to myself 'There's no need for this'. I've just got to focus on what's at hand and that's playing in Barrie and that's what I started to do."
"At first it was kind of tough to deal with," New York Islanders blue-chipper Ryan Strome admitted, "just the timeline and you didn't really know what to expect… But the task on hand was obviously junior and now the World Juniors and then if it's the NHL after Christmas then so be it."
The lockout could end any day now or it could very well extend into the World Junior tournament before lifting at some point in its' midst, if at all. Surely looking to quell any uncertainty in such a scenario, Toronto Maple Leafs President and General Manager Brian Burke told Hockey Canada recently that Morgan Rielly, Toronto's top prospect, would stay in Russia for the entirety of the tournament if he were to make the Canadian squad.
"Ultimately, we're going to pick the 23 best," said Team Canada head coach Steve Spott of the selection process, following an intra-squad scrimmage on Tuesday evening. "I'm not going to hide that. We're going to pick the 23 best on Friday and hopefully we'll have them for the entire event."
Paired at the outset of camp with Dougie Hamilton, the Boston Bruins' top defensive prospect, Rielly would be getting his first crack at the tournament, off to a quick start in Moose Jaw this season (28 points in 33 games).
Scheifele and Strome meanwhile, would garner another chance at gold after a disappointing bronze-medal finish in Alberta last year.
"It definitely stung me for a long time after," said Scheifele. "I still think about it. I still think about things that I could've done, 'If I did this, we could've won'. It definitely is still in my mind, but I'm definitely working that much harder to make the team and work that much harder to win gold."
They may have been required to alter their focus toward a different prize this winter, but if there ever was a decent consolation award to the NHL at this moment, it's a crack at gold.
"As a kid growing up in Canada you're always watching this tournament on TV around Christmas time," Rielly concluded. "Having the chance to play for Team Canada would be a huge honour and a goal of mine that I've had for a long time."

Seriously though guys ...it has occurred to me that life in prison for a Deaf person is going to be tougher than for everyone else.
You're going to be invited to pick up the soap a lot, I think. So would a deaf person be more heavily punished in prison than a hearing one? After all they would be effectively out of it.
It's certainly been a disincentive to a career as a Deaf bank robber on my part!

Hi I appearred in the See Hear programme about Deaf people in prison, which was went on tv in 2001 I think. Working in the area i'm not sure much has changed in the last 8 years. I takes a long time to change the attitudes of some staff working in prisons. Additionally the problem may be compounded by the folding of the Deaf Prison Project, run from the Deaf Cultural Centre in Birmingham. This project provided some support for Deaf prisoners, but sadly this has now ended. The volunteers are still out there, and they are considering their options at the moment.

Cornishandy - if you looked like Charles Manson you'd be quite safe!
I suppose you could say a deaf prisoner won't be serving just one sentence but two, i.e. being more isolated due to poor facilities. Anyway, best way to avoid such is to keep out of prison!!!!

I think the adage here, is do the crime, do the time Andy. While access does not make things easier, they DO have a choice as to being in prison or not.

A few years ago my profoundly Deaf BSL tutor was arrested and convicted, however, he was not sent to prison but given a suspended sentence and the apparently the reason was because the judge had said he would be serving a tougher sentence than someone who was hearing and convicted of the same crime.
Maybe they could use the tagging system, therefore restricting the person's freedom? I Dunno.

Why should we use the 'deaf card' to get away from punishment hearing have to get ? Not equality is it ? Prisoners these days hardly are on 'bread and water' and chained to walls now, they get to watch colour TV, learn a trade, get 3 decent meals a day, go out in the community, get priority medical help, etc.. In many respects get more help than some people outside. In reality the crime has to be very severe to get jailed these days, and the time served is a lot less than some would like to see too. Communication can be difficult, but no less than an other prisoner who doesn't speak our language at all. Don't commit crime, the issues don't arise. Many prisoners abuse other people's human rights to get jailed, should we give them what they deny others ?

I think a deaf person would be very vulnerable to victimisation in a prison unless some arrangement was made for their protection.
Justice demands that prisoners are incarcerated but beatings and abuse should not be part of the sentence. That's fair to my mind.

A lot of us are vulnerable outside prisons too ! Perhaps they should build prisons just for the deaf...... access to communication seems not an issue to migrants who commit crime, and even terrorsists have more access to it ! while funding for interpreters for migrants has gone up 20 fold in a year, deaf access has remained static indeed getting less.... I wonder if all the deaf emigrate we will be better off ... except countries like Australia and New Zealand and America won't take disabled or deaf people.

Deaf people would serve a 'double sentence' in prison.
A mysterious character who goes by the name 'Mr Jones' has been asking a few questions of HM Prison Service about this. I don't think I could have done a better job if I had tried myself:
I don't find that very reassuring. There was once a worthwhile project going on:
But now it seems that deaf prisoners have just been abandoned and that worries me.

Getting a bit desperate we are replying to 2yr old topics but... It takes an huge amount to jail anyone these days and even more effort to keep them there... personally I'd just throw the key away. If you have committed a crime and sent to jail, serve your time and keep out of trouble. Why aren't we serving bread and water and they aren't mashing rocks too ?
Some criminal that ignores the rights of others is surely NOT entitled to those same rights.... the issue is a no-brainer to me.

As soon as you say it's OK to remove human rights from any group of people, you can then extend that to any other "undeserving" groups - like disabled people for example (already being done.)
The only "qualification" you need to have human rights is to be human; that's the whole point of the universality of human rights. It's about setting a bare minimum standard for everybody, irrespective of circumstances.
You could have some debate about what should or should not be a human right, but we don't and shouldn't get to decide for ourselves - I don't want that Cameron person deciding what my human rights are.

I don't agree people who violate human rights are entitled to get away with it. If this means they can't watch colour TV or have holidays and sentences cut to nil then so be it. Victim's rights ARE more than the criminals, as for an pecking order of human rights this is just what you are suggesting really, that despite what crimes are committed we turn the other cheek till we have none left.
I doubt that augment will impress anyone who has lost relatives/friends who are dead, or had children abused/raped or killed. The human rights law wasn't intended to justify rights abuse, so logically we just don't give them to people that abuse them. Give prisoners human rights ? erm NO ! most come out and carry on too...
There are grey areas, but there is no such thing in law as an plea "I didn't know you can't do that..." We are today in a situation where crime pays very well, this suggests the punishment is insufficient. We have some rights advocates suggesting locking up criminals is against their human rights, enough already ! The human rights law is an incomprehensible mess, and we should not sign up for the present version at all because it creates more rights abuse than it gives. That many emanate from the most Undemocratic area on the planet next to North Korea (europe), doesn't inspire either.
What is rights seems to depend on what you can make others comply to, which is not the way to do it. Cameron is certainly one example but minority advocates and barrack-room lawyers are another... A number of rights lawyers are making millions out of us every day defending the indefensible for nothing more than cold cash, and certainly we could deport a few of them.
I think its important we identify what rights are, some naively suggest total equality no less, but you cannot enforce that on 6 billion people who are all different. or even 69m here. I'm not establishment, I think criminals can thank god I'm not.... but realism suggests human rights is an rather poor joke in the UK. I think criminals come way down the list of those entitled. Next time DON'T break the law.

I think it would be better if you addressed what I actually did say rather than things which I did not say. For example, at no point did I say 'people who violate human rights are entitled to get away with it. ' That's just a start, there are a lot of other things in your post which I did not say, either.
I am not going to refute distortions of my argument.

Quite, you were talking deaf prisoners I was talking prisoners rights generally, because I see no distinctions. I think the issue remains the same, deaf cannot make excuses when they are incarcerated for a reason. And I still think prisoners are getting too many rights across the board too. They've screwed the tax payer for millions this year for all manner of frivolous reasons. Most originating via this horrendous human rights law which I don't support..

Lindsay Lohan Lands Liz Taylor TV Movie Role - With One Caveat (Source)
Lindsay Lohan has more than just her upcoming hosting gig on "Saturday Night Live" to celebrate – she's scored the role of Elizabeth Taylor in the Lifetime TV movie, "Liz and Dick," a source tells Access Hollywood's Billy Bush.
But, there is one legal-related caveat: Lindsay needs to stay on the right side of court.
According to the source, if Lohan continues to stick to the judge's orders, as she has been doing, she will be playing the "Cleopatra" beauty in the Lifetime made-for-TV film about the late actress.
The project, helmed by producer Larry Thompson, has been in development since May 2011.
Following a string of recent legal woes, the 25-year-old appeared in the January/February issue of Playboy. She was last seen on the big screen in "Machete" in 2010 and on the small screen in 2009's TV movie "Labor Pains."
She will host "Saturday Night Live" on March 3. Jack White will be the musical guest.
Lohan is due back in court on February 22.

In a season where the Edmonton Oilers house is filled rooms on fire, the Kevin Lowe must go story is more about blood than logic. I doubt it will end after Saturday night's news, but am hopeful we can go back to talking about Craig MacTavish and how he's going to put out the fires.
I posted this as a funny follow-up to my opening statement, but it is interesting that MacT/Lowe are in Philly and looking for solutions. I wrote about this over at ON yesterday, but there might be a trade here between the two teams. The Flyers are looking for mobile defensemen, the Oilers are looking for a veteran lefty to anchor their top pairing. Braydon Coburn struggled a year ago but is having a good season in 2013-14 while facing the toughest competition. Coburn and Timonen have formed a solid pairing all year long.
The Flyers may be looking for mobile defensemen and the Oilers have a ton of them. I wonder if the Oilers are interested in Coburn as part of a lefty set that might include Coburn-Marincin-Ference next season? Who knows, but it's possible. That would effectively block Klefbom and Nurse for next season, I don't think that's such an evil thing.
There's touched by God, and then there's Gretzky. There was a time when it seemed 99 turned Edmonton into the universe's center, and that he would be an Oiler forever, but it was not to be and it all worked out fine. As someone who was gifted with the opportunity to see him at Northlands many times, I can say that as entertainment Gretzky was perfect. Hockey and magic have never looked so good together. There was a time when a giant walked among us.
Happy birthday, Wayne Gretzky.
Brock Otten has the OHL's Top free agents this season, and the #2 prospect (Tyler Gaudet) looks interesting. I'd love to see the Oilers sign Barclay Goodrow just for the name, and he does look like an interesting player. I assume this is Bob Green's job now, and as we head into the spring this will become more prominent on the blog. Those free agent signings, college, junior or Euro, are very important to the Oilers future.
- "As a player you see the things that are said and written and it's a Pass The Blame Game. The coaches and management don't play the game. We play the same system as basically every other team in the NHL, it's the players that lose. Yet they (coaches and managers) take the blame. It's about time the guys in this locker room took a little bit of accountability on themselves and stopped letting other people take the blame."
Hmmm. I think the goaltending and powerplay, plus whatever is being done to Taylor Hall on his shifts (don't ask me what's happening, even the smart people don't know) have impacted the team. These Oilers look beaten, but I don't know if that's quitting on the coach or having the brains to know you're screwed for yet another season. Either way, Jones called out his teammates and we'll see where it goes. Article is here.
Bruce McCurdy took in last night's Oil Kings-Hitmen game and paid close attention to the two Oiler draft picks. The article is here. Both prospects are tracking very well, and along with Jackson Houck could have three WHL forwards over 35 goals this year.
As difficult as this season has been, there are many NHL seasons that were more trying. My choice for 'most difficult season to be a fan' would be Detroit Red Wings, Ned Harkness era. It is covered well and incredibly here.

One of only two states with statewide jail diversion programs, Connecticut identifies persons with mental illness at arraignment and diverts them straight to the community. However, judges may order a brief incarceration to stabilize individuals or motivate them to participate in treatment. In this study, the authors looked at outcomes of participants who were immediately diverted to treatment versus those who spent a short amount of time in jail. The results indicated that even brief incarcerations may lead to quicker rearrest and undermine the goal of the program.
In recent years, the mental health field has made learning collaboratives the centerpiece of efforts to implement training in evidence-based practices. Lasting an average of 14 months, these interventions typically begin with in-person training for two days and can cost more than $100,000 per site. In this literature review of 16 peer-reviewed studies, the authors found minimal evidence of the effectiveness of LCs in mental health settings. They called for more rigorous research to evaluate the utility of these costly endeavors.
Even after passage of the Americans with Disability Act (ADA), persons with mental illnesses have difficulty finding a job and keeping it. In this study, the authors assessed employment outcomes among more than 1,000 individuals with a psychiatric disability who were unemployed at the start of the two-year study period. Those who received ADA accommodations not only worked more hours per month but worked 31% longer than the comparison group. Better documentation and measurement of the effectiveness of accommodations can move the nation closer toward the goal of full inclusion, the authors said.

Developing Vehicle Models with MathWorks Physical Modeling Solutions and dSPACE Automotive Simulation Models
When it comes to modeling and simulation, automotive engineers want it all. They want models of the vehicle, the components, and the environment. Engineers designing electric vehicles need to combine electrical, mechanical, and other domains in a single model. They want models that run in desktop simulation and in real time. And, no matter how complete the model provided by the software vendor is, they need the ability to customize it further. To meet all of these requirements, the best option can be the combination of two compatible solutions. The ability to create custom models of vehicles and vehicle components delivered by MathWorks physical modeling solutions combined with Automotive Simulation Models (ASM) from dSPACE enables engineers to create the exact model required for all tasks for Model-Based Design. This session covers the advantages of each environment and how they complement each other.

UbD: Making a Chicken Mummy1
The design for this Middle School unit came about because writing blog posts was on my mind due to starting this class. The science teacher and I were planning on having the students mummify a chicken to demonstrate the process to the students in a way that would hopefully get them excited, if not intriguingly disgusted. Since I was in the midst of learning how to blog, I got to thinking I could get the students to do it too. They could share what they were learning about mummification with a larger audience, thus hopefully inspiring them to put out their best effort with the knowledge that I wouldn't be the only one reading their work.
We have a unique situation at my school in that we are to be "unsearchable;" no information about the existence of our school can be shared online. I needed to find out from our Tech teacher how I could go about this. She reminded me that way back at the beginning of this year she helped me set up an edublog. I had completely forgotten! At this time the students cannot have a blog of their own, since issues surrounding security have not been resolved. Therefore to get around this, the students have editing privileges on my blog, and they post their individual work as categories.
Right now we are at the point where they have written a blog post detailing how they are making canopic jars and sarcophagi for the chicken mummy they have named Chickapatra and also blog posts on the actual mummification process. They worked in Word for a week transferring the notes from their Science journals into blog posts detailing what they have done so far.
Next we worked together to design a rubric for the evaluation of the blog entries. At this point in the year, the students already know my general expectations for work, so I like for them to have a draft in hand when we go over a new rubric. It allows me to directly reference their work when giving examples of what I am looking for, and they have their work in mind when reviewing the rubric. The students then reviewed their work comparing it to the rubric. Revisions were made and they uploaded these first posts to edublog along with photos.
Unfortunately this is as far as we have gotten. This work had to be set aside so the students could work on preparing scripts for a visiting film-making group, and now we have moved into preparations for student led conferences. I find this really disappointing because the students are left with unfinished work (though the mummification work has continued in science), and I have not been able to review the final work they have done. I hope to pick this up again at the end of next week with scores for their initial posts and time for catching up on new posts that are needed.
Using this method for unit design was a challenge. I have never used the UbD format before and I felt a little lost. I really struggled with the Six Facets of Understanding. The differences seemed very subtle, at this point in my experience, and I was trying hard not to be repetitive. In addition I was trying to be conscious of repetition between the GRASPS Task and the Six Facets of Understanding, but I don't know if that has left a discontinuity between the two or if that is what I should be doing.
