In Memoriam
Lillian B. Rubin
January 13, 1924 - June 17, 2014
You were beautiful at 19 and at 90. You gave me strength, courage & love. Being your daughter wasn't always easy, but what a fantastic journey these 65 years have been.
I cry knowing we'll never talk & laugh together again. Then I laugh about the silly stuff you & I shared & all your funny loving quirks. Then I read just one more email from yet another person whose life you touched deeply, about why you were important, about how deeply you were loved & about your pride & joy in me - and I reach for the telephone to share the wonderful words with you. At those moments, reality sets in. And while I'll never again be able to share the love & the pain, the triumphs & defeats, the joys & sorrow with you on this earth, I know you hear me.
As we all mourn in our various ways, we take comfort knowing you died as you wanted - in your home, in your bed, with dignity, living independently until the end. It's now our challenge to celebrate your life by living our own with the courage, tenacity & principles with which you lived yours.
With great love I say goodbye from this world to the best mom & my best friend...

No. Each specialty has its own requirements and exam. You can take one of them or all of them, depending on which you qualify for.
Do you have to be a CFOT or CPCT to take the specialist tests?
That depends on the certification - see prerequisites for each certification above.
What experience level is needed and how do I provide documentation for that experience?
You must have at least the experience level required by the specialty for which you apply to take the exam.

Why It's Important to Walk in the Fear of the Lord
Psalm 33:18–19 talks about our physical life and what God does for us. It reads,"Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him, On those who hope in His mercy,To deliver their soul from death, And to keep them alive in famine." It means that when we walk in the fear (awe) of the Lord we don't have to be concerned. The economy might be bad, jobs might get tight—there might be a sense of famine or shortage. God says, "If you'll fear Me, the famine (or other calamities) won't hit you. You will stand out. You will be different. You will be above and not beneath." When we walk in the fear of God, He keeps us alive in times of famine and shortage.
We can see this truth throughout Scripture. We can go back and read about how God dealt with the Egyptians and the Hebrews in the the Exodus. In the midst of terrible plagues, He kept the Hebrews safe because they walked in the fear of the Lord. His hand rested on them and they were untouched. He kept them alive in the famine.
God opened the Red Sea for the Hebrews. They pass through the sea "as on dry ground." But, what happened to the Egyptians (people who chose not to fear God)? They needed some serious swimming lessons. They were in trouble.
Psalm 91:7 says, "A thousand may fall at your side, And ten thousand at your right hand; But it shall not come near you."
God makes it clear. There is a mark of demarcation between those who fear Him and those who choose not to fear Him. God keeps those who fear Him away from the famine and shortage.
It doesn't matter what is going on around us in the world. It doesn't matter about the economy, the stock market, gas prices or even who gets elected in November. We are called to be a people who understand that God will keep us. He will never leave us or forsake us. That's His promise to those who choose to fear Him.
What about you. Do you choose to fear Him? Or do you put your trust in something else? It's your choice and there are eternal consequences to it. Choose wisely.

Serves 4
An example of deglazing with possibilities limited only by our imaginations and mood. Lightly browning orange zest along with chicken and onion slices lends an intriguing lilt to the dish. Use it as a starting point for experimentation -- stir a few teaspoons of minced fresh ginger into the pan with the zest, or saute shallots and fresh sage before adding the wine. In autumn, cider could stand in for the wine, with a little dark mustard finishing the sauce.
Make a sheer film of oil in bottom of a 12-inch saute pan (not non-stick) and heat over medium high. Add chicken in a single layer and scatter with onions. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook about 30 seconds per side to sear. Turn heat to medium low. Using a zester, shred the colored rind (zest) of the orange over the pan. Cook chicken 4 minutes per side, or until firm when pressed with a finger. Turn onion pieces with chicken.
Remove to a serving platter and keep warm. Pour away all but a tablespoon or so of fat from pan. Set over medium high. Add any desired flavorings, sauteeing for just a minute or so. Add wine. Using a wooden spatula, simmer wine as you scrape up the brown glaze in the pan. When wine is all but gone, add stock and simmer, stirring until deeply flavored. Taste for seasoning.
Depending upon the intensity of your glaze, you might want a little more stock. Spoon sauce over chicken and serve.

One thing I don't want to see: All the work we've put into outlands becoming null and void. If we start to level a new toon, will we bother with CE/Sha'tar/Netherwing/HH/etc rep in Outlands? Or will we quickly breeze through it and not bother trying to go for exalted anymore, like the Argent Dawn is these days.
Also, as we still going to be able to get flying/epic flying mounts at 70? And what about money making, are we going to make as much money at level 70 as we once did?
And are they going to give us more bank space, so we can keep all the gear we worked so hard for and can't bear to vendor, after it's become outdated?
Lastly, will Northrend go down as much as Azeroth does these days? (You have no idea how many times this past week, on Bronzebeard, where I was so happy to be in Outlands!)
Sorry, all your work in Outland (and Azeroth) is going to be null and void yet again. They've stated multiple times that it's %100 intentional to not re-use factions in order to give new people an even footing compared to the people with 3 year old characters that are exalted with everything already. Same as the expansion's gear reset.
When leveling to 80 from a fresh character, you'll definitely have no need for any of the rep from any of the factions. (yet another reason they dumped the heroic instance requirement to honored, since it's hard to NOT be honored just through questing in outland). None of the rep-based items will be worth a crap (just like the rep-based stuff in Azeroth right now) and you'll basically just want to hit 68 as soon as possible and start working on your useful things.
Also, you can go ahead and count out the flying mount. Why would they give us access to fly RIGHT to the guy we need to kill for X quest.
Flying mounts made questing a breeze once I hit 70. They would have to have some solution like "unlocking" your flying mount once you are 80 in the new realm.
I've seen post where they said they didn't want people skipping content, and I'd have to admit, I'd skip the hell out of it if we got flying mounts straight off the bat in the new world.

Topic - Helping women...
tlm - on 25 Jul 2013
So, there I was, using my drill to make a few holes in a bit of wood, when in came a bloke and doing a double take, said "are you sure that you are alright using that?"
Now, seeing as a drill isn't actually very complicated, and seeing as I can drive a car, which is a lot more complicated and lethal, I wasn't quite sure what point he was trying to make. Still, I smiled politely and nodded, that yes, I could manage.
Anyhoo - later on, we had to saw up some wood, so he proudly got out his jigsaw, at which point I whipped out my HUGE circular saw and chopped everything up at twice the speed.
He hurumphed.... "hmmm, that's a bit over overkill, isn't it?" and looked most put out. I think he was just disappointed that a woman had a bigger tool than he did.

text: iTASTE MVP V2 Just arrived from Innokin is the iTaste MVP V2 , the successor to the WILDLY popular Itaste MVP mod. Now I'm personally a big fan of the original iTaste MVP. I like box mods. I like internal batteries, and I like variable voltage. The MVP V2 improves on the MVP design in a lot of ways. At first glance it looks EXACTLY like the original MVP. The button is even in the same place. Although this V2 button seems much more durable. The USB charging, and USB out remain the same. The Top and bottom are no longer super shiny chrome metal, but now are a more soft anodized looking finish. What has changed in the MVP V2 is the guts. It' now variable voltage AND variable wattage. Up to 11w in 0.5 increments. It will now also check the ohms of whatever 'Omizer you have attached. I was expecting the interface to be the same as the iTaste VV V3 but it is not. The wattage is controlled by the top button, and the voltage is controlled by the bottom button, and it only goes up. So you press and hold the top button ( LABELED P ). It will show you puffs, then switch to "P 6.0" the lowest wattage setting, you can then click the top button to adjust the wattage up. If you want to go down you keep pressing the button until is cycles back down to "P 6.0" It works the same way with the bottom button ( LABELED U, but I think it's supposed to be a V ). Press and hold until it says "V 3.3" then adjust the voltage up in 0.1 increments up to 5V. It's strange they didn't just stick with the iTaste VV V3 interface. But this still works just fine. Hold both buttons to read your OHMS. Now I have got this to fire with a 0.8ohm Cyclone rebuildable, as well as the 1.0ohm Kayfun lite pictured above, but it's knocking the voltage down to around 3.3v , which leads me to believe it's not designed at all for "sub ohm" coils. So stick with the 1.5 - 3.0ohm coils on this. Lastly Innokin has addressed my main gripe with the iTaste MVP, the "beauty ring" on the top no longer hangs over the side of the mod. This just makes me so happy. Obviously I will report back in good time via my Youtube my experience with the iTaste MVP V2. -Grimm Features according to Innokin.com Variable Voltage: voltage can be adjusted from 3.3 – 5.0 volts in .1 volt increments.

These licenses will not be handed out on a first come first serve basis. The Washington Liquor Control Board will review and approved the applications.
There's 3 ways to apply:
- Online through the state's business licensing website - www.bls.dor.wa.gov
- By mail
- In person at any WA Department of Revenue offices
The deadline to apply is December 19th. Any applications after that date will be returned. There is paperwork and a $250 business fee, and $19 application fee.

The members of the Delta Eta Chapter of the Rho Chi Society conducted an ASAP exam topics review throughout the day on August 1st and 2nd. The highest attendance at a session was 92 students, with an average turnout of 75 students per session.
There was a cost of admittance to the ASAP review sessions – donations of needed toiletries and clothing items for the residents of Haven for Hope, the homeless shelter in downtown San Antonio. Rho Chi members felt they provided a great overview of targeted study areas for students about to take the ASAP exam – while also providing needed supplies and encouragement to San Antonio's less fortunate.

JESSICA SIMPSON showed off her baby bump and some major cleavage in a skimpy bikini during her holiday vacation in Hawaii.
Check her out:
Now that she's been given an extension on her Weight Watchers deal, Jessica no longer has to resort to hide her second pregnancy under super baggy sweaters and gigantic handbags… she can now proudly show off her baby bump! And as you can see, it's already pretty darn huge, which seems strange since she only gave birth to her first baby, Maxwell Drew, a few months ago.
The expectant mom posted the photo on her Twitter, with the caption:
"Bumpin' and Proud!"

There is nothing more wickedly delicious than a loaf of sourdough bread that's been spiked with half a pound of jack cheese and drizzled with butter. My mother-in-law shared this fantastic recipe with us, and we've found it's wonderful with soup, with chili, and even on its own as an appetizer. Because it is cut into chunks before baking, it's easy to pull it apart right at the table. Make two -- and you might just have enough!
Preheat oven to 350° F.
Cut bread into horizontal slices, about 1 inch apart, stopping before you cut through the bottom of the loaf.
Cut bread in the opposite (vertical) direction in the same manner, creating diagonal shaped cubes, taking care not to cut through to the bottom.
Carefully stuff the space in between each cube with cheese, onions and parsley, then drizzle with melted butter.
Wrap in foil and place in the oven for 20 minutes. Unwrap the top of the loaf and bake for 15 minutes more, to crisp up the crust. Serve immediately.

Why does this species—a species composed of rock—have sexual dimorphism even more stark than mountain gorillas? What purpose does this serve? Come to think of it—why do the women have plant hair? It appears to be growing out of their skulls—so it must be parasitic. But this is a sentient species in a futuristic setting, meaning that if it were a non-beneficial parasite, they'd have removed them. So are Granok-plants an example of resource-resource mutualistic symbiosis? Wouldn't the males then also cultivate plant-hair?

This Beautiful Life
* If you are looking for this week's Saturday Challenge, please read this blog post.
Yesterday a friend and I drove to Washington, D.C. The weather was a perfect sort of day for adventuring, filled with sunshine and endless blue sky! By the end of the day, I had snapped quite a few photos of the cherry blossoms, one of which you can see above. These trees are so lovely, romantic, and delicate; their petals fall like snowflakes in the slightest wind and drift ever-so-gently to the earth. It's magical to watch!
The newness of spring has not only brought the plant world to life, but many new human lives as well! In the past three weeks, two little ones in my little town have taken their first breaths, as well as the children of Goddess Leonie in Australia and Susannah Conway's dear sister in England; cJane and Stacy de la Rosa are becoming mamas again any day, and both Alex and Kelly Rae are expecting, due later this year. And, twenty two years ago this Tuesday, I made my entrance into the world. It's an amazing thing, being alive, isn't it? (Congratulations and much love to each of these new mamas and mamas-to-be!)
I wish you, my sweet readers, a beautiful weekend bursting with loveliness! Do make sure to go out and enjoy this beautiful world we live in - this moment, right now, is all we have. And this moment, right now, is an incredibly gorgeous one.
Much love,

Thank you for following Tour Loko.
But my friends, it was never about the bus. Or the swag. Or the travel agent or the hotel rooms or the bottles of Cristal that seemed to flow like a spigot. (Okay, it was only one bottle and I talked the manager down.) It was only ever about togetherness, LIGHTNESS of being, and the overall concept that you can have a good time in your life without thinking you'll have to feel bad to call it even. It can be fun, and only fun. May this be the year that things go your way most of the time, and when they don't, may you have great friends to lean on.
Happy 2011. See you in a little bit.
Farewell, Las Vegas. I got $20 of your money; you got my Blackberry charger. Let's call it a push. —CM

Saver vs. spender: Happily ever after
When it comes to spending and saving money it's hard to find two people who agree on everything -- even if they've said 'I do.'
When you discuss finances with your partner, do you feel as though you're talking from opposite sides of a stadium? If so, you're far from alone.
Everyone who's ever squirmed through a money conversation with a loved one knows that differing opinions can be challenging -- at best. In fact, according to a nationwide survey conducted by LearnVest and TD Ameritrade (.pdf file), money is one of the top marital stressors.
As sensitive as financial issues can be, they can also build trust. The survey found that at least 60% of married people trust their partners to manage their finances—a number that rises to 70% among couples in their 60s and up.
Financial awareness grows alongside trust, but more dramatically. The survey also showed that just a quarter of couples aged 18-35 has a clear picture of each other's income and debt, but 60% of Baby Boomers clearly understand their financial footing.
So how can you and your spouse make opposite money perspectives a source of strength rather than friction? For one, communication is crucial. Even when you trust your spouse's financial management, be sure to have candid, regular discussions about money matters.
To show how it can be done, three couples at different points in their lives divulge how they deal with opposite approaches to money -- and how these differences can even bring partners closer.
Colby and Nick Peters, Annapolis, Md.
Colby and Nick, both in their early 30s, have been married for three years. Despite Nick's conservative financial outlook and Colby's carefree spending, they've managed to reach a happy medium. "Our financial personalities have changed to meet in the middle," Colby says.
Each month, the couple reviews their accounts and upcoming expenses. Nick also checks his bank balances once a week, and he gets anxious if he dips into his savings. "Colby reassures me that everything is fine, and she's right," he explains. "Allowing for the occasional splurge isn't the end of the world."
Nick cites his first credit card as an indelible lesson: It had a $1,500 limit—a purposefully low amount that helped him avoid overspending. And he has kept that limit ever since. When Colby met Nick, she carried about $10,000 in credit-card debt, but she steadily paid it off. She also adopted a similarly low credit-limit plan, which curbed her impulse spending on clothes and restaurants.
So far, they've kept separate accounts -- but with a baby on the way, they may combine them. They're confident that, with open discussion and emotional support, they can weather the larger financial decisions that lie ahead. "I am very honest about my finances, regardless of any embarrassment I might feel, because I value being truthful with Nick," Colby says.
Janice and Jason Christensen, Chicago
During 17 years of marriage, Janice and Jason discovered the importance of collaborative financial decision-making, especially while living on a single salary.
For a decade, Janice stayed home to raise their three children, and she struggled with feelings of guilt and powerlessness because she didn't have her own income. She was used to spending freely on gifts and clothes, so she needed to rein in her budget, while her thriftier husband focused on ways to save, such as refinancing their mortgage.
To help her feel that she was part of a team when it came to money matters, Jason would ask her to weigh in on financial questions during regular Sunday night planning sessions. "He included me as a complete equal," recalls Janice, who handled their day-to-day budget, as well as selected their monthly charitable donations. These steps ultimately did wonders to boost her confidence.

Now that they're in their mid-40s, Janice and Jason's main priorities include saving for college and retirement. Janice, who's now back in the workforce, has become more easygoing about personal spending. Jason, on the other hand, still saves carefully: "I always feel a burden to support my family, and I feel it's my responsibility to ensure that everyone has what they need." They continue their weekly status reports, hashing out budgets along with their schedules and other responsibilities.
For their personal entertainment budgets, they both keep any five-dollar bill that passes through their hands. "If we ask our friends to come out with us, they'll ask, 'Do you have a bunch of fives burning a hole in your pocket?' " Janice says. "It's an easy way to have fun with saving -- and it makes going out less painful financially."
Daphne and Fred Cohn, Davis, Calif.
"For many years, we never talked about finances," Daphne admits. "That started to change as we saw how unhealthy it was for our relationship."
Fred, now 57, was a disciplined saver, while Daphne, 41, felt that budgeting "sucked the fun out of life." She hid some of her spending, but soon realized that it eroded their mutual trust.
Since Fred is closer to retirement age, he is more focused on ensuring their financial freedom in the years ahead. "I have a much deeper appreciation of just how much savings will be required to maintain our current lifestyle," he says.
After 13 years together, they now agree on key financial goals, such as school tuition for their children and their retirement savings. They talk through their financial plans every month, as well as when they're considering any big purchase. The more they do this, Fred has found, the better it gets. "Our easiest talks are when we schedule regular reviews of our 'books,' " Fred says.
"Now we sit down together, each with our laptop, and look over our bills and incomes," Daphne adds. And while she still finds budgeting a chore, she admits that it helps to set a relaxing mood: "We put on soft music, light candles and have a glass of wine. This makes the whole thing more enjoyable."
More from LearnVest:
In my experience, the further apart people are on there habits and goals the more difficult it can be to be a successful couple. I was brought up with the "pay yourself first" philosophy. By that I mean, pay your basic needs, fund your retirement, and pay or pay-off your debts. My son's mother nearly gave my mother a heart attack during a conversation about pension plans and 401ks when she made the declarative statement that we don't need to put money away for the future because that is what Social Security is for. She also had the belief that what is hers, is hers, and what is mine, is hers.Twenty five years later she is on her 5th husband, her 2nd bankruptcy, and still has nothing planned or saved for the future. I also was recently involved with someone that for some reason believed that a bank account had to be at zero the day the next paycheck came in for deposit. I am not a complete tightwad but I do only buy things I know I can pay for quickly or pay cash for. With that being said I travel occasionally and have very good material things that are all paid for. I have been working on my Bucket List and part of that Bucket List is to only do the things on the list as money becomes available. This is an accomplishment that is hard to do but I take great pride in being able to do this along with the other things. I'm sure there are couples that work well together and may even have different spending habits. I just haven't been able to find someone with similar beliefs no matter what their spending habits are.

Indium gallium arsenic phosphide/gallium arsenide quantum well lasers: Material properties, laser design and fabrication, ultrashort-pulse external-cavity operation
Date of Award

Degree Name
Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)
Engineering Physics
Dr. H.K. Haugen
Dr. P. Mascher
A detailed characterization of the In1- x Gax Asy P 1-y quaternary material system lattice matched to GaAs, grown by gas source Molecular Beam Epitixy (MBE) has been performed. Photoluminescence, X-ray diffraction and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) were used to study the lateral composition modulation (LCM) which was observed in this material system. Optimization of the growth process and the substrate orientation resulted in a significant reduction of the LCM. Additionally, a comprehensive analysis of the optical constants was performed which resulted in the first publication of wavelength and composition dependent index of refraction data for this material system. The combination of growth optimization and index of refraction data lead to the demonstration of efficient, low threshold operation of InGaAsP/GaAs based multiple quantum well lasers. In order to efficiently couple the above laser diodes to an external cavity to facilitate the generation of ultrashort pulses, antireflection facet coatings were required. As such, optical interference filters have been fabricated using a plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition system, based on the SiO x Ny material system. High quality antireflection facet coatings, suitable for application to the InGaAsP/GaAs diode lasers have been designed and fabricated, resulting in modal reflectivities of 1-2 × 10-4 . Finally, an ultrashort-pulse external-cavity diode laser system was designed and manufactured which allowed the laser diode to be wavelength tuned and emit mode-locked ultrashort optical pulses. Pulses with sub 2 ps duration and greater than 1 mW average output power have been achieved. A study of the novel application of an asymmetric quantum well structure to the generation of ultrashort optical pulses has been proposed and initiated.

Barcelona win 5-0 at 10-man Levante
BARCELONA, Spain (AP) Lionel Messi shrugged off a missed penalty and another injury to Neymar by scoring one goal and setting up two more to lead Barcelona to a 5-0 rout at 10-man Levante on Sunday as it stayed top of the Spanish league.
Messi set up Neymar for the 34th-minute opener before flubbing a spot kick in the 42nd after being fouled by Loukas Vyntra, who was sent off.
Barcelona didn't blink, however, and two minutes later Ivan Rakitic scored his first goal for Barcelona with a blistering strike from outside the area.

Images from The Hollywood Gossip
Apparently Jessica Simpson has been getting a bit of hard time about her post-baby figure. Well gosh, she JUST had baby Maxwell on May 1, give her a break I reckon!
Playboy pet Kendra Wilkinson agrees with me, with The Hollywood Gossip reporting that Kendra is 'simply aghast' that Jess is getting a hard time for not yet having lost her baby weight.
"Her first priority right now is her child. Her first priority is not losing the weight. You should be proud of her for that. A lot of people just dump their kids off at nannies and lose the weight overnight. We should all be proud of her for being real and taking control and making priorities."
That's one smart Playboy pet, I couldn't agree with her more. It seems Jess DOES feel pressure to lose the weight, as she's recently signed up to be the newest spokesperson for Weight Watchers. Let's hope she focuses on the health first, the hipsize second.
I think it's time we stopped putting pressure on ourselves to be 'thin' and just allowed ourselves to be happily healthy, whatever our body shape. Did YOU get back to your pre-baby weight and figure? Is it even realistic to expect mums to look the same after giving birth?
Oh my god Jessica! How dare you concentrate on being the best mother you can in the early months of your child's life! You should be ashamed girl.....
Seriously - the world needs to change this damaging attitude towards women that looks are so important and whats underneath is not so much. It is so ingrained in everybody, they judge so easily and don't consider the damage they do.
Jessica was slammed before she was pregnant, while she was pregnant and now after birth for her figure but you never hear anyone talk about how talented she is or the things she has achieved or been through in her life. She is a person just like anyone else, and it disgusts me to see her (and many others) made into a debate topic because of her body. The media has a lot to answer for - they have the power to start shaping people's minds differently, yet choose to still show us stick thin, underweight models at every opportunity.
Real women are BEAUTIFUL, and all Jessica Simpson is guilty of is being a real woman.
I put on the most with my 1st and it took a while to loose it, I think the body goes into shock a bit with the first one, The second one I worked my ass off to get back and seemed not to take that long to work it off (not that I didn't wake up every morning mon to fri and do between 45mins & 1hr on the DEADLY TREADLY!!!) and I didn't put weight on as fast during the second as I did for the first pregnancy either which made it alot easier!! I didn't gain as much weight for the 3rd pregnancy either but it didn't want to come off as easy after though, I was happy at the weight I got down to, but I did still want to loose more, so that meant I still wasn't down to pre bub weight when I got pregnant with my 4th about 2 yrs after having my 3rd. She is almost 9 months now and I have had less time to exercise (hence I now have 4 not the 2 when I did get to pre bub weight!!!), so with the small amounts and a little food control I am only a kg or 2 off of what I was before getting pregnant with her(my 4th) but compared to pre 3rd bub I still need another 5kg on top of the 1 or 2, so here goes for my hoping to find the time to excercise the rest of it off!!! I'm not to worried though since I am happy at my weight now and happy to slowly earn/work it off in the next 6 months (not to much longer than that though I hope because I really want to get back into those favorite jeans!!!!)
With my first two I bounced back to my pre-pregnancy figure pretty quick, but I had my third baby last January and I'm still putting on baby weight, lol!
I don't think its unrealistic but I don't thik its necessary either. Making a baby is hard work (the 9 month gestation period anyway) so why should it be easy to lose it? Good on Jess!
I actually agree with Kendra, she is so right in what she said. I have actually liked Kendra for a while and also another she lived in the house with Bridgette.
My thrid baby was actually a toss up between those two names at first, then it was between Bridget an Brooke. We chose Bridget, we chose to spell it this way for my girl to learn it easier.
I lost my baby weight with hard work, but I still don't look like I did pre-baby. I wouldn't want to, I'm happier now. It's unrealistic to look the same after the changes having a baby brings.

Batista and Brooke Hogan worked on a comedy thriller movie together last year called LA Slasher. It was initially to be released in 2013, but delayed until 2014. It now appears that the movie may be in permanent limbo, as no release date has been announced yet.
Brooke Hogan posted a picture of herself on Instagram, where the daughter of the legendary Hulk Hogan is wearing a "winter beach" outfit.

Vegetable Satay
From EatingWell: November/December 2007
Although usually made with strips of chicken or beef, this Indonesian-style satay can be made with fresh broccoli and cauliflower florets. Hot Madras curry has a bit of a kick; use regular curry powder if you just want the flavor of curry but not the heat. To save time, look for broccoli and cauliflower already cut into florets in the produce section or at the salad bar of your supermarket.
Makes: 1 dozen skewers

- 24 broccoli florets, (about 10 ounces)
- 24 cauliflower florets (about 10 ounces)
- 1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger, or ginger juice (see Note)

- 1 teaspoon hot Madras curry powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil over high heat. Add broccoli and cauliflower; cook until tender-crisp, about 3 minutes. Drain; rinse under cool water.
- Whisk soy sauce, vinegar, oil, ginger (or ginger juice), peanut butter, garlic, curry and salt in a large bowl until smooth. Add the florets; gently toss to coat. Let marinate at room temperature for at least 2 hours or cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day.

Brothers unite to advance Temple rugby
While participating in Temple's sports clubs might be an extracurricular activity to some, for three brothers it means a whole lot more.
David, Owen and Gareth Jones are anticipating the start of a new season for the Temple rugby club because for them, it's the opportunity for all three to show off their skills as they play on the same team for the first time.
During his time at Temple, David, the oldest, has gotten the chance to see what it's like to have one of his brothers, Owen, as a teammate. He said he enjoyed the past three years so much that he wanted to know what it would be like to have his youngest brother, Gareth, also join the team. To make that happen, David, a graphic design student, decided to stick around campus for a fifth year.
Owen, a senior kinesiology major, said that when Gareth decided to follow in his older brothers' footsteps and become a Temple Owl last year he was really proud that the family tradition would carry on.
"Our parents are originally from Wales, and our father got us into rugby as soon as we got old enough," Owen said. "The entire rugby community — here at Temple and all over the world — is really friendly and it's great that we can all be a part of that."
Temple was a natural choice for the Havertown natives, whose family name was already a fixture at the University. Their father, Peter Jones, was a full-time professor in the criminal justice department for 18 years and has been the vice provost for undergraduate studies for the past three.
But their father wasn't the only reason why they chose Temple. All three said they were impressed with the opportunities that the University offered — both on and off the field.
"I've been watching my brothers play in Temple [rugby] games for the past six years and it made me realize how talented they were," revealed Gareth, a sports management major. "To be able to play with guys that talented is awesome — but for them to also be my brothers is an honor."
Unlike in some families, the Joneses said they don't get jealous of each other's abilities on the field; they support each other.
In fact, David and Owen couldn't wait for this year's rugby season to begin on Sept. 16.
They believe this could be one of their best years yet, all thanks to Gareth's talent. As a high school senior last year, Gareth earned a spot on the USA Under-19 National Rugby Team and traveled to South America to compete in an international tournament.
As a former member of the USA Under-19 National Team, Owen said he knows that his brother is going to be a big asset to the club this season. Temple had a stellar season last year, and Gareth's help might be the edge the club needs to bring home the Mid-Atlantic Rugby Football Union's highest honors. Falling just short of winning the championship title last year, the team is set on taking the prize this season.

How many of you are prescribed to Adderall?
View Single Post
Nov22-11, 11:25 AM
I'm prescribed dexedrine. Of course I feel I'm as capable of doing as well as my classmates. It has its side effects which are often counterproductive but it also has its benefits, one being the fact it enables me to concentrate on a single task and get it done. In fact, I can spend 8 hours straight doing what would ordinarily be a relatively boring task such as writing a lab report and have fun doing it. I can spend 18 hours straight learning science related material and end up with a profound understanding of concepts I'll need to know for college. I don't just learn what I need to know to pass tests, I learn everything I need to know to "truly" understand the concepts so as a result, I believe I have a far deeper understanding of the concepts than my classmates. Thats not just a belief, this has been put to the test many times. I cannot function without it though. Before being diagnosed with ADHD, I spent a whole summer struggling to learn things with that horrible restless ADHD mindset. I instinctively sought stimulants but caffeine was the only one I had access and it only worked for 2 hours then stopped working for the rest of the day. At one point I was drinking 2L jugs of tea desperately trying to regain the calm, focused mindset that the first cup of the day gives me. Had the same problem with coffee. It was horrible. I feel truly blessed now that I can read and study like everyone else. Before then I wouldn't have been able to read the replies to this thread, let alone a book or even lengthy article.

Nice piece.
I struggle with Bush and honestly think based on some early site rankings I've seen elsewhere it seems I'm not the only one. Considering LeShoure was showing signs before he started getting nicked up and Bell stole touches, I honestly think the Lions are following the Saints RB patterns (ironic considering they now have Bush, isn't it?) in that Bush is likely to fill the Sproles role while LeShoure/Bell fight for the Thomas/Ingram roles, thus canceling out anyone beyond Bush in fantasy terms, at least on a consistent value basis anyway. While Bush did look good between the tackles last season, I don't see him doing that enough in Detroit because of the other two's presence (are the Lions really going to give up on LeShoure after basically half a season as starter?), and don't hear rumblings out of Detroit that that's the goal for him, to be a bellcow fantasy RB on any team.

Recipe: Fresh Cranberry Relish
This is cranberry relish to us. No wiggling cylinder from a can, no whole berries that are cooked down with sugar. Our cranberry side dish is always fresh, chunky, sweet, and full of fruit. We think we've perfected our combination, finally...
Growing up, our family used an old-fashioned grinder to make cranberry relish. It produced tiny bits of fruit without turning everything to mush. In our house, though, we use a food processor (very sparingly) to chop the cranberries and do everything else by hand. It doesn't take long- there's only one orange and one apple involved, so it's not a ton of dicing.
And while our family's recipe always called for grinding the whole orange, peel included, into the relish, we always found that too bitter. Our recipe has just orange zest. Also, we add a little canned, crushed pineapple which gives the mixture a bit more sweetness and provides some moisture to hold everything together.
We like our relish pretty sweet. It serves as dessert after Thanksgiving, when the pies are gone. But if you prefer yours more tart, you can adjust the sugar or leave out the pineapple. Also feel free to add other ingredients- maybe pears instead of apples or some chopped, crystallized ginger.
Fresh Cranberry Relish
1 12-ounce bag of fresh cranberries
1 1/2 teaspoons orange zest
1 large orange (or 2 small), sectioned and chopped into small pieces*
1 apple, peeled, cored, and finely diced
1/3 cup canned, crushed pineapple (drained of excess juice)
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
Rinse and drain the cranberries, then pulse them about 12-15 times in a food processor until finely chopped but not pulverized. Put in a large bowl.
Add the rest of the ingredients, stir, and allow to sit for an hour or two in the refrigerator before serving, so that the sugar can dissolve and the flavors can mingle. This relish also freezes well.
*Our method for sectioning an orange: Slice off a small disk from the bottom of the orange, so that it sits still on a cutting board. Use a chef's knife to carve down the sides, removing the peel in about 4 or 5 pieces. Use a paring knife to cut into the orange on either side of the thin membranes that separate each section. The sections should wiggle free and come out. Then roughly chop and add to the relish.

These always look so awesome and yet I always return to the can--not even the one with berries, the one that is basically cranberry jello. Some things are hard to change, I have enough trouble convincing the family that its OK if we try new desserts.
You're just missing one crucial component: heat!
Just a few minutes in a saucepan over medium heat does nothing to change the flavor and leaves the fruit crisp, but exponentially enhances texture and color, two crucial qualities.
Cooking the relish allows the sugar to dissolve immediately so there is no grittiness and gets the juices to gel a bit, AND it infuses everything with a bright red color instead of the pink and gray mess you see above.
Yum. Grew up on the old-fashioned grinder kind - complete with errant berries bouncing around the kitchen! Now use the food processor. Cranberries, entire orange, and sugar, chopped together pretty fine. Helps if you chop the orange alone first.
I recently learned that the "family heirloom" recipe is the one on the Ocean Spray bag. Still, it can't be beat. Best if it sits overnight.
We add jalapeno, onion, and cilantro-- but nix the pecans and pineapple. So good!
"You're just missing one crucial component: heat!

I beg to disagree.
I've been experimenting with cranberry sauces and relishes over the years, and have now perfected our own recipe, which is similar to this.
Yes, heat would intensify the colours, abut make no mistake, even a little bit of heat would really change the flavour. The subtlety would be lost, and it would have a different taste -- the difference between pasteurized orange juice and fresh-squeezed.
All a fresh relish like this needs is a day or two (instead of an hour or two) in the fridge to mature -- the sugar melts, the colours develop, all on their own. That's the only suggestion I would make.
this looks amazing and perfect for Thanksgiving next week!
I make something similar, and add horseradish for a nice kick. It's my favorite part of the Thanksgiving meal and the only way I can eat white turkey meat.
I make this any time I can find fresh cranberries. I use just a small amount of honey instead of white sugar, and no pineapple. No cooking - and I find it really improves after it sits in the refrigerator for a day. A healthy dollop goes on my morning oatmeal this time of year!
I am always looking for a great cranberry relish recipe for my thanksgiving table.

NY NOW, formerly the New York International Gift Fair (NYIGF), just wrapped up its Winter session.

"Each of us is in truth an idea of the Great Gull, an unlimited idea of freedom…and precision flying is a step toward expressing our real nature…everything that limits us we have to put aside." Richard Bach, Jonathan Livingston Seagull, 1970
The philosophy of Richard Bach has many adherents in the United State — including some who think 'absolute freedom' is enshrined in the U.S. Constitution. American innovation and mythology, expressed in aviation — both commercial and military, also connect with that thinking.
Tokens & Icons, based in Berkeley, California, is tapping into aviation nostalgia with original parts from a Pan Am Airways Boing 707 and Grumman F-4 — that have been chopped into a collection of artifacts, ranging from cuff-links to desk-art.
The New York International Gift Fair opened today at the Javits Center, and will run through Jan. 30.

AP Television Writer
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (AP) -- A Saudi court has sentenced a man to death and 19 others to prison terms of up to 25 years in connection with the 2004 armed assault on the U.S. Consulate in Jiddah that killed five employees in an attack blamed on al-Qaida.
The official Saudi Press Agency says another 35 suspects linked to the consulate storming will face court hearings this week.
The report late Sunday gave no further details on the alleged attacker sentenced to death or when the execution could be carried out.
The attack on the heavily guarded compound came amid a series of attacks by al-Qaida-linked militants in response to crackdowns across Saudi Arabia. Gunmen killed five locally hired consulate workers, and four attackers were fatally wounded in the three-hour battle.

Spinach & Paneer and Mung Daal
We have Indian food once a week and spinach & paneer is a bit of a favourite. I have made my own paneer before and it was delicious, but the blocks you buy from the cheese section of the supermarket or from Asian grocery stores are perfectly good too. This recipe makes better spinach & paneer (saag paneer, whatever) than you'll ever find in a restaurant. As an aside, saag doesn't necessarily mean 'spinach' – it can be another green too, and in India is more likely to be something like mustard greens.
Spinach & Paneer
1 bag/bunch washed spinach leaves (wash it carefully if you've bought it from a greengrocer, to get rid of any mud or grit)
1 block paneer, cut into cubes
1 medium onion, chopped
1 tbsp green masala (or 2 green chillies, 1 garlic clove and a small blob of ginger, all finely chopped)
1/4 tsp tumeric
1/2 tsp dhana jeeru (or 1/4 each of coriander and cumin powder)
1/2 tsp salt
1 bunch fresh methi (fenugreek leaves) – optional
In a big frying pan or saucepan, fry the onions in some oil. The pan you choose needs to be big enough to hold all the greens.
Meanwhile, pick the methi leaves off their stalks and shred them, along with the spinach. You can do this as finely or roughly as you like. My mum doesn't even both at all - it's all going to wilt down anyway.
Once the onions are just starting to brown, add the green masala, dried spices and salt.
Stir the mixture and fry for about 30 seconds, and then pile your shredded spinach and methi leaves (if using) on top.
Don't worry about stirring anything yet, it'll just make a mess, just turn down the heat a little and put a lid on. This will allow the greens to steam and wilt down.
After a few minutes it should all have reduced in size by about half, which will make stirring a lot easier. Give it a mix and pop the lid back on.
Let the whole thing cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. If it starts to release too much liquid, just keep the lid off.
The spinach is ready once most of the liquid has cooked off, and the leaves are a deep dark green. It looks delicious when the leaves are bright and fresh, but the flavour won't be nearly as intense.
Add your paneer and mix everything together, leaving it all to cook until the paneer has heated through completely and softened nicely.
We also had mung daal (recipe will be shared another time), and the last of the tuwar ringan sakh from the other day. All eaten with rice and homemade chapattis.
