Nancy and Ronald Reagan Alzheimer's Scholarship Fund Award
President and Mrs. Reagan dedicated themselves to helping accelerate Alzheimer's research. In 1995 they joined with the Alzheimer's Association to create the Ronald and Nancy Reagan Research Institute. This Institute, with its focus on cutting-edge basic science, enabled the Association to develop the biological segment of its research program and move toward funding innovative research aimed at precise molecular targets. To honor President Reagan's memory the Kinman-Oldfield Family Foundation has established the Nancy and Ronald Reagan Alzheimer's Scholarship Fund Award. Each year the award recognizes students and very early investigators pursuing initial work in Alzheimer's research.

Pepper Spray in Schools, used by Security Guards. Good or Bad?
Today recently in City of Norfolk, Virginia. We have had a series of incidents being reported. Something like a phenomena. The local news has been reporting security officers using pepper spray on kids in middle school during certain altercations. In one incident it was a fight the security officer was trying to break up and another was a food fight in the cafeteria they were trying to contain. In both schools all kids involved in both incidents were sent to the school nurse and checked out okay, just some irritation from the spray. A letter was sent home to parents in both cases informing them of the incidents. Some locals and parents claimed relief and cheered the security guards for their actions, "this should be mandatory in all schools" some say. Some disagree. They say "children should not be exposed to such things that can cause harm and or fear".
Pepper spray is a legal and nonlethal self defense weapon also used by Police and Mailmen and are proven not to cause any lifelong issues. It also has a very good history in saving lives and neutralizing altercations. It does so well it is even available over the counter at most convenient stores.
The schools in Norfolk do permit the use of pepper spray in school. The employment status of both these guards are pending during investigation. Some argue their innocence and some argue their guilty. They are alleged to have used the pepper spray out of misconduct. What do you think?
Right now Norfolk public school's policy for use of pepper spray is under review. Should security guards in schools be permitted to carry and use nonlethal weapons such as pepper spray for handling these kind of incidents or should they not?
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Oct 26 2011: Well, first of all, I must ask, how dangerous were these fights? Were they mere petty fights? I would think that it's safe to assume the food fight was non life-threatening to the officer. On the other hand, how dangerous could the real fight have been (the latter fight in the same week)?.
Let me first examine the food fight. Food fights are harmless and I'm pretty sure middle school children aren't packing razor blades in their mashed potatoes and hurling them at each other, unless this was prison or something. That being said, the pepper spray should not have been utilized in this case. It was total overkill for the security guard to do that and he or she definitely stepped out of line by abusing their powers.
As for the second fight, the pepper spray should have been used depending on where it happened (after school, in school, on or off school grounds) and the severity of the fight (fists, knives, other weapons, etc.). I believe that if it was just a harmless fist fight, the security guard should have warned the students that he or she was going to use pepper spray on the assailants BEFORE spraying it.
With young teens and preteens, I think it's important to realize that they're still developing and that even though studies have been done about pepper spray, I believe PS can still damage vision down the line.
The security guard should have warned before spraying it. If the fight was more severe, with knives, et. al., then the security guard was within power. If it happened anywhere else, off campus or it just a petty fist fight, I think he or she was just power hungry and wanted to teach (and make examples of) the students a lesson on what will happen if you start bullying and/or fighting in his or her school.
Anne Dagen 10+Oct 26 2011: Nicely put!
Use of pepper spray seems like an over reaction when a school should have other sanctions, including making the culprits clean up after a food fight. I do wonder what behavioural history there is in the school to justify the policy in the first place.
There are some issues round the use of riot control mechanisms with youngsters. There is the obvious risk to innocent bystanders, more so as a youngster may have a srtonger reaction to irritants than an adult. Also, unless the typical student at that school is a hardened streetfighter and used to this sort of reaction, there is the risk of panic and hysteria.
I am very much in favour of school regimes expecting reasonable behaviour from students, but having riot control measures in place and ready to use seems excessive unless the school has pre-existing and severe discipline problems.
Oct 26 2011: Well I cannot answer all your questions. I am pretty much in the dark to on how bad the fight was. I do understand that the security guards tried repeatedly to contain and stop the food fight. The fist fight could have been potentially bad. I grew up in Norfolk, VA I have lived here all my life. The fight was at Blair Middle School, which doesn't have a history of ruffians, but I am much older now and many years have passed. I know I went to both middle schools, I was bullied out of Lafayette Winona and transferred to Blair. But eventually was forced back into Lafayette due to a change in bus routes and school districts, that screwed me. Lafayette was really bad last I went there, I was so glad to leave it! I can imagine the kids were very disorderly and disrespectful, probably threw food at the guards to.
PS: There is a dog for each school in Norfolk, I've seen them in action a few times. searching for weapons and drugs. through out middle and high school.

NEW ORLEANS (March 19, 2014) – The Rutgers women's tennis team (9-4) concluded its three-match spring break trip with a dominant 6-1 victory over Tulane (4-13) Wednesday afternoon. The Scarlet Knights went 2-1 over the week, taking down Southern on Sunday, March 16 in addition to their victory over Tulane, while falling to Southeastern Louisiana yesterday.
RU's loss yesterday snapped a five-match winning streak, which stretched from Feb. 23-March 16. The Scarlet Knights are now winners of six of their last seven.
Rutgers captured the doubles point with a victory at No. 2, as rookie Farris Cunningham (Houston, Texas) and sophomore Gina Li (Hillsborough, N.J.) teamed up to take down Emily Dvorak and Margaux Hyman, 8-4. Despite its loss at No. 1 doubles, RU secured the point as the squad earned a win at No. 3 by default.
In singles, senior co-captain Vanessa Petrini (Stamford, Conn.) battled Ipek Birol to a 6-2, 3-6, 10-8 victory at the No. 1 slot. After a loss at No. 2, sophomore Lindsey Kayati (Monroeville, N.J.) was able to get the Scarlet Knights back in the win column by easily defeating Meredith Maltby, 6-0, 6-2 in the No. 3 singles matchup.
At No. 4, senior co-captain Stefania Balasa (East Brunswick, N.J.) handily defeated her opponent, Hyman, 6-2, 6-3. Junior Lindsay Balsamo (Wall, N.J.) followed with a 6-3, 6-4 win over Dvorak at No. 5, while Cunningham picked up the final singles point for Rutgers by default.
Rutgers will host its first match of the season at the RU Tennis Complex on Friday, March 28, as the squad welcomes Temple "To the Banks" at 1 p.m.

New Hampshire
Two years ago, Republicans swept Democrats into a minority in the state Senate and House of Representatives. On Tuesday, voters propelled Democrats back into the majority in the House.
It's worth listening to this NPR podcast from last week on the divided politics in the state.
For the first time in history, one state will have a congressional delegation made up entirely of women, and one occupying the governor's office as well.
New Hampshire Democrat Maggie Hassan defeated opponent Ovide Lamontagne in the state race for governor, and Democrats Carol Shea-Porter and Ann Kuster were elected to the state's 1st and 2nd Congressional districts.
Shea-Porter and Kuster will join two other women who were not up for election on Tuesday, Sens. Jeanne Shaheen (D) and Kelly Ayotte (R).
The tiny village of Dixville Notch, N.H. is one of a select few places where voters get to cast their ballot at the stroke of midnight on election day. This year, Barack Obama and Mitt Romney tied among the village's voters, with a count of five votes for each candidate.
In 2008, Barack Obama carried Dixville Notch, defeating John McCain in a comparably huge voter turnout, 15 votes to six.
President Obama was joined by former President Bill Clinton in Concord, New Hampshire on Sunday.
"As President Obama has told us there's this great public health epidemic, this virus, sweeping across America causing a condition known as Romnesia," Clinton told the crowd of about 14,000 gathered, "and the virus is so rampant that anybody's vulnerable to gettin' a little of it."
New Hampshire newspaper The Union Leader made an endorsement for Mitt Romney on Sunday, as well as N.H. Republican gubernatorial candidate Ovide Lamontagne in an editorial by Publisher Joseph W. McQuaid.
"It is too often said, but this really is a very important election," McQuaid writes. "Nationally, we will have either four more years of deficit spending and government expansion under President Obama and Joe Biden, or at least the chance of restoring the economy and reining in the government under Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan. We think the right choice is Romney-Ryan."
As election day draws ever nearer, new polls show President Obama ahead of opponent Mitt Romney in three battleground states: New Hampshire, Iowa and Wisconsin.
All three states are tightly contested, but New Hampshire's race is perhaps the closest of them, with Obama holding a slim lead of 49 percent to 47 percent among likely voters.
Both presidential candidates will be in New Hampshire during the last days before the election next Tuesday.
President Obama will make a visit to New Hampshire on Sunday, one day before Mitt Romney visits the state on Monday night.
The trip will be Obama's seventh visit to New Hampshire this year.

NEW YORK (AP) — A New York City livery cab driver was held up at gunpoint and locked in the trunk of the car after picking up a passenger who wanted to go to Albany.
Police say the passenger stole the driver's cell phone and money on Thursday morning.
They say he then locked the driver in the trunk after telling him to pull over at Exit 23 on the Saw Mill River Parkway.
WABC-TV (http://bit.ly/1gFR8Fo ) says the driver was able to open the trunk using a safety latch and got out of the moving cab as it slowed down.
He suffered minor injuries.
Police later arrested the passenger, Robert Mizell, and charged him with kidnapping, criminal use of a firearm and other charges.

This is great
Nice to see the handbag still in use as it should be, but how long until she is convicted of assault?
Anglia Regional News | Anglia Tonight - ITV Local
This is great
Well done to her. Nice to see all the big strapping blokes intervene AFTER she's attacked them
its a bird, its a plane no its Super Gran! armed with her trusty handbag !!
And they say that old people have bad reaction times, I was surprised at how slow the window guards were coming down and at how slow all the other people in the street were to react to the situation.
SUPERGRAN!!!! to the rescue.
She deserves a medal the size of a dustbin lid
That is absolutely awesome. I saw the highlight at the start of the news, but had to go out so missed it - thanks for posting it up.
It's the way she runs towards them that is crazy, it's like she's just skinned John Terry and is sprinting towards Petr Cech to tuck the ball nicely in the back of the net, a bit like Onuhua did when we beat them 3-0
That is awesome.
It is quite interesting from a psych point of view. There was a study that showed in a large crowd everyone expects someone else to step forward to help & until one person does, no one does. Classic example here, people were doing things, you can hear someone on the phone to the police, but it took someone to step in before everyone rushes forward. & it is a noticeable everyone.
Top lady though. Hope she gets a nice pressie from the shop, although being a proper old school lass she'll probably shy away from any recognition.
When SuperGran runs out of super powers, she recharges up sat in front of the television, with a good cup of tea and few biscuits !
Aaah, so it was her mates from bingo doing the raid, she was annoyed because she wasn't getting her cut
There was something a bit 'Keystone Cops' about the robbers though wasn't there?
I loved the numpty by the door who was struggling with the 'smash' part of 'smash and grab'...and then fell off his getaway vehicle...
Fair play to the women though...she even got to the scene before the guys inside the shop! There must be an event for her at the 2010 games surely
to be fair, their getaway vehicles were mopeds. you could have let them ride off and just walked next to them
its a shame that white van didnt get them properly, he should have just knocked it in reverse and wiped em out. i'd gladly get a few dents on my car to clear scum like that off the street
tech_guy (8th February 2011)
but whos filiming it or am I missing something?

Michael Sankey and Jeffrey Black discuss the media production facilities at USQ
Thanks for joining us. I am joined by Jeff Black, who is the Manager of Digital Media Services. So Jeff, you have a few services to offer – video, audio, all kinds of things. What exactly can you offer teaching staff here at USQ?
We offer the academic within the university the opportunity to access our services to produce audio, video content that will enhance the student learning journey. So video materials, audio materials, off air recordings, format shifting, those technical type services that enable academics to enrich the course with av media.
So, does it have to be a big recording? Small recording?
No. we try very hard here Michael to make sure we don't' impact upon the academic's day negatively because I know that everyone is time poor. We have systems and services in place here that push the material through quite quickly. No great amounts of additional time are asked of academics. So, for example, a studio recording, and we are working in a studio here at the moment, for a studio recording we encourage the academics to just hold their lecture or tutorial or presentation in the studio with a guest, or with a special presenter. We don't encourage just a normal suite of lectures that you would encounter through the semester. We like to think of them as special lectures or master lectures or master recordings.
You can have an audience too, can't you?
That's right. We can have an audience of up to 80 students listening in. We also have the capacity for that lecture to go live. And not only that, Michael, the student watching live on line can tweet or email back into the studio with questions as well. We pride ourselves on having the link to the finished material available before the academic gets back to their office and in many instances, we achieve that. We do have some new systems where we are putting our content on to external hosts which gives us mobile device compliance, which is terrific. But that is a little bit more involved so our back to the office mantra doesn't quite work there however.
You also do not just do stuff in the studio – you also do field work as well?
That's correct. Audio and video field work as well. We'll take cameras out in and around Toowoomba and the Darling Downs to record activities, processes, things that students need to see that can't be bought to the university. Lots of engineering things, lots of nursing things that we have been doing. And I might say too there Michael, that the cost to produce course support material – there is no cost, other than to say, things like vehicles or overnight accommodation. The cost of labour and the equipment we use comes at no charge,
You are telling me that if a lecturer wants to put something in their course that involves a couple or hours of video, it doesn't cost them anything?
Yes, that's correct. There is no charge, unless, for example, they wanted us to drive to Brisbane and stay overnight in Brisbane. We would just ask to recoup the cost of the vehicle and the accommodation. We don't have a budget for that.
And how would a lecturer request this work of you.
We encourage the academics through their faculty and through their faculty programs to contact the LRDOs, the Learning Resources Development Officers in the first instance and provide the LRDO with a background of what they want done. The LRDO would then initiate a request to our section and we would then throw resources at the production of that media. Now that could involve assistance with scripting, pre-production, looking at venues to film in. All of the little gotchas that sometimes can conspire against you when you are making a video – bad weather is a beauty!
What type of time lines does somebody have to plan?
That is a difficult question because if it may be a complicated shoot involving lots of locations, reliant on people being there, a process being demonstrated, moving to the next one, it could be quite a few months. I can think of a project where we had to film a heavy rain water on drains. Now that was a difficult shoot and we got a window of opportunity and away we went. Others can be finished very, very quickly because they involve very little in terms of planning – a lecture, for example, is very much an on the fly production. So those issues and those time lines are set during the course of the pre-production meetings that our clients have with our staff.
You mentioned before off-air recordings. What does that involve?
USQ has a campus-wide screen rights licence which enables us to record radio and television programs that are transmitted through the air. So the commercial providers, the ABC, SBS and we also have a number of PayTV providers. So if it has been broadcast terrestrially within Australia, we are able to record it and make it available in a streaming only (not download), streaming only capacity.
That's great information – thank you Jeff.
Thank you Michael.

United States Department of Interior
Sep. 3, 1975
To: Superintendent, Katmai National Monument
From: Robert Carper, Historical Architect, Historic Architect Branch, Historic Preservation Division, Denver Service Center
Subject: Fure's Cabin Floor Stabilization
I wish to thank you and the Park staff for the assistance you provided during my recent visit to conduct the survey for the List of Classified Structures program. My report on the findings for Katmai should be complete in the near future.
As you recall, during our discussion of Fure's Cabin, I had volunteered to forward to you suggestions for the stabilization of the floor. Enclosed is a brief description of the approach for the work; however, these suggestions should be considered in light of conditions unique to Katmai. Mike Shapsnikoff has the experience in local construction techniques and climatic factors and can undoubtedly be the best judge on the materials and methods. A copy of our suggestions is being sent to the Regional Associate Director for Professional Services and to the Alaska State Office. Before taking any action, Regional concurrence should be solicited since the building may be eligible for National Register listing and subject to compliance procedures.
We would be interested in your findings and results of the stabilization work and hope the suggestions are helpful. Your efforts to preserve the structure will surely be appreciated by present and future Park staff who use the cabin on patrols as well as visitors who will be able to visualize the history of the Park.
Robert L. Carper
Floor Stabilization Suggestions
The southeasterly or front half of the wood plank floor of the cabin has settled and become uneven, probably caused by both rotting and settling of the plank supports. The floor is pitched and uneven and at one location there is perhaps a 4 inch difference from the surface of one plank to the adjacent one. A brief investigation at this location gave some clues as to the construction of the supporting members of the flooring. The attached sketches show possible constructions, but these remain in part, conjecture, as only a small area beneath the planks could be felt.
If in the original construction an air space was provided below the floor, it is now for the most part filled with dirt and rotted wood particles. The underside of the floor planks were hewn flat at each end to provide full bearing area on stringers or ledgers running the length of the cabin, one at the wall and one at the longitudinal center beam. A post was evident under the stringer or ledger; there may be others spaced along its length. However, this post may have been for support of the longitudinal center beam, and is out of place. If such is the case, it seems possible that the plank supporting member may have been a ledger nailed to the center beam. Or rather than a ledger board, the center beam may have been cut to provide bearing for the floor planks.
Initially, dismantling and inspection of this section of the floor will permit the maintenance staff to determine the construction and replacement materials needed. Much of the material preparation can then be done in the shop at Brooks Camp to minimize transporting of equipment to the site in the boat.
Methods and Materials
The coated canvas-like covering on this part of the floor is partially gone. Assuming it is bonded in some manner to the planks, it may not be removable without special techniques. Thus, if it cannot be rolled back for reuse of any remaining portions, it may have to be cut along the edges of each plank and allowed to remain.
Each plank should be numbered for positioning with a marker that can be removed or will not be seen. Take up the planks and remove major rot from undersides. Inspect planks to determine those that cannot be reused.
Remove sufficient earth and rotted wood particles to provide an air space below the planks when replaced. Disposal of this material should be in a manner and location to be unobtrusive.
Inspect construction and condition of plank support system to determine what must be replaced. Take measurements for replacement members.
New members can be precut at Brooks Camp and treated with a pentachlorophenol preservative. If feasible, it would be preferable to soak the members in a tank for at least 30 minutes. If not, they should be thoroughly drenched by brushing or spraying, two applications given at least 24 hours apart. Original planks being reused should be allowed to dry before application of preservative. (Note: The preservative may remove the canvas floor covering, in which case a sample should be retained for future reference prior to preservative treatment.) Allow to dry and remove any surface residue before transporting to the cabin.
If bearing for stringers is inadequate, it may be desirable to put in a bed of beach gravel or sand under wood blocking or rock supports. Set and secure new stringers and/or ledger boards. An additional stringer should be placed under the planks at mid-span since the rot has reduced the effective thickness and the earth no longer will support them. (Consideration was given to laying in a 6 mil minimum thickness polyethelene moisture barrier, bringing up vertically against the walls and center beam. However, this standard approach may be detrimental by trapping moisture within the air space under the planks.)
Replace original and new planks in their proper locations and secure in the same manner as originally done (if any).

Change in Directors or Principal Officers
(e) On August 15, 2013, the Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee") of ConAgra Foods, Inc. (the "Company") approved grants of performance shares under the ConAgra Foods, Inc. 2008 Performance Share Plan (the "2008 Plan") for the three-year performance period of fiscal 2014 through 2016. Performance share grants were approved for all eligible participants, but specific information is provided in this report for: Gary M. Rodkin, President and Chief Executive Officer; John F. Gehring, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer; Colleen R. Batcheler, Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary; Brian L. Keck, Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer; and Paul T. Maass, President, Private Brands and Foodservice. These officers were named in the summary compensation table included in the Company's proxy statement for the Company's 2013 annual stockholders' meeting, and we refer to these officers in this report as the "named executive officers".
Under the 2008 Plan, the Committee awarded a targeted number of performance shares to each plan participant for the fiscal 2014 through 2016 plan cycle. The executive will earn the performance shares only if pre-set, company-wide financial objectives for the three-year period ending with fiscal 2016 are achieved. The financial objectives for the fiscal 2014 to 2016 plan cycle are specified levels of (i) three-year earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") return on capital and (ii) three-year average net sales growth.
Payouts on earned performance shares are made in shares of the Company's common stock and may be more or less than the target award, depending on actual performance. Dividend equivalents will be paid on the portion of performance shares actually earned at the regular dividend rate over the performance period. Dividend equivalents will be paid in shares of the Company's common stock. The Committee has retained the discretion to adjust performance results to account for items impacting comparability. Achievement of a threshold level of three-year average EBITDA return on capital will result in a threshold payout equal to 25% of the participant's approved target opportunity. No portion of the incentive is guaranteed. All payouts are capped at 220% of individual targets. A maximum payout would be achieved only with significant over-performance versus the targeted financial objectives for both EBITDA return on capital and net sales growth. The target number of performance shares granted to the named executive officers were: Mr. Rodkin, 75,219 performance shares; Mr. Gehring, 21,882 performance shares; Ms. Batcheler, 21,882 performance shares; Mr. Keck, 21,882 performance shares; and Mr. Maass, 21,882 performance shares. Any actual payout (including any above target payout) will depend on the Company's performance over the three-year performance period and be made, if at all, following the end of fiscal 2016.
Mr. Andre J. Hawaux, the Company's former President, Consumer Foods, was also named in the summary compensation table included in the Company's proxy statement for the Company's 2013 annual stockholders' meeting, but he voluntarily resigned from ConAgra Foods, Inc. shortly after the end of fiscal 2013. Accordingly, none of the information above impacts Mr. Hawaux.

Subjectivity and the Cultural Imagination
SCI | Extending the imagination
A Word of Welcome:
UCL Anthropology's research platform on Subjectivity and the Cultural Imagination (SCI) brings together anthropologists working on the role of the imagination in diverse social and cultural scales – from the intimate arenas of subjective experience to the most encompassing vistas of cosmological contemplation. Rooted in rigorous ethnographic research in settings across the globe, we explore comparatively the imaginative and intimate dimensions of history, politics, law, economy, religion, and cosmology. Using ethnographically-based insights we seek to refigure the ways in which we, as social scientists, imagine the social and cultural world, and ultimately to extend the anthropological imagination itself.
A hub for versatile anthropological research, activities and events, SCI promotes empirically driven thinking and a readiness to experiment with novel themes and contemporary theoretical frameworks. Our research activities range from informal, student-led reading groups and workshops to major internationally funded research programmes and networks. Combining the knowledge and skills of academic staff and research students at UCL and beyond, our research clusters around five core themes:

Everything about The Bouchon Bakery cookbook is perfect. It's the perfect size and weight. The paper choice is thick and easy to thumb through. The photography is mouthwatering. The recipes are frustratingly exact.
The book is simultaneously the most beautiful and intimidating cookbook I've ever read. I picked some of the easier recipes in the book for the poll last week and still those had very specific steps and ingredients that almost made me freeze. Not only is every ingredient measured out to the gram, but they also call for very specific chocolates and cocoa powders. To be honest, it can be a bit much for a freakin' cookie.
After sweating through the recipe once or twice and looking up every gourmet store in the Denver area, I remembered a common phrase that I try to live by in the kitchen: The perfect is the enemy of the good. You can spend days of your life hunting down ingredients and mastering these cookies or you can just make them. As long as you get close, they will be delicious.
No doubt that the original is probably best, but I'm fine with just getting close as long as I'm getting close to perfection.
Bouchon Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies
- 190 grams (1 1/4 + 1 1/2 TBSP) all purpose flour
- 48 grams (1/2 cup + 1 1/2 TBSP) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2.3 grams (1/2 teas) baking soda
- 3 grams (1 teas) kosher salt
- 134 grams (1/2 cup + 2 TBSP) dark brown sugar
- 12 grams (1 3/4 teas) blackstrap molasses
- 104 grams (1/2 cup + 1 teas) sugar
- 107 grams (2/3 cup) 70%-72% Chocolate chunks
- 107 grams (scant 1/2 cup) chocolate chips
- 167 grams (5.9 ounces) unsalted butter, room temp
- 60 grams (3 TBSP + 2.5 teas - about 1 extra large) eggs
Helpful Equipment
1) Sift and whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder in a small bowl.
2) In a separate bowl stir together sugars and molasses. Try to stir out any chunks.
3) In the bowl of a stand mixer, add softened butter and cream until butter is very soft and holds peaks with the paddle attachment. It should almost be the consistency of a thick mayo.
4) Add in sugar mixture and cream together until smooth.
5) Add eggs and mix on low speed for 15-30 seconds. There is no need to completely mix in the eggs.
6) Add the flour ingredients in 2 batches, mixing slowly until just combined.
7) Add chocolate and pulse a few times on low speed to mix in without overmixing.
8) Let dough chill for 30 minutes and preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
9) On baking sheets lined with parchment paper or a Silpat baking sheet, portion out cookies in large balls, 75 grams each. You should get six per sheet.
10) Bake cookies for 16-18 minutes until just set.
11) Let cool before serving. Once cool, you can store these at room temperature for a few days in an airtight container.
Recipe from Bouchon Bakery.
Perfect is the Enemy
Let's go through the list of things I did NOT do correctly in this recipe:
- I didn't use the right kind of chocolate. The recipe calls for a very specific kinds: Guittard Cocoa Rouge for the cocoa powder and Valrhona Guanaja 70% for the chunks. I used Ghirardelli for both because it's what I had and is still very good in my opinion.
- I didn't use as much chocolate. The original recipe called for a huge amount of chocolate chips and chunks which I would've been happy to use. I fell about 40 grams short though and wasn't going to go out to the store for 40 grams of chocolate.
- I used more butter. The original recipe calls for an annoying 5.9 ounces of butter. I doubled this to 11.8 ounces because I doubled the recipe in general. I just used 12 ounces (1 1/2 cups) of butter because I didn't want to save .2 ounces of butter.
- I used light brown sugar instead of dark brown sugar.
- I didn't get the eggs exactly right. Measuring eggs by the gram is freakin' annoying.
For the chocolate, the recipe recommends both chunks and chips. It actually specifies 3/8" chunks, but I just roughly chopped up a chocolate bar.
Step one for the recipe is to mix all your dry and wet stuff together. For the flour, baking soda, cocoa powder, and salt, just whisk everything together in a medium bowl. I followed the instructions and sifted in the cocoa powder which helps make sure there are no clumps.
In a separate bowl, stir together the sugars and molasses. There is a ton of sugar in these cookies. I double and triple checked the amounts because I thought it was a mistake. It's pretty hard to stir in the molasses completely. Just do your best.
Starting the Dough
The instructions for these cookies recommends beating the butter with a stand mixer until it's light and fluffy before adding any other ingredients to it. It should be the consistency of "mayonnaise" and hold peaks. I did this and I must say that it did seem to result in a much nicer final cookie dough.
Once your butter is light and fluffy, you can cream in the sugar mixture. Again, you are looking for a nice light consistency.
I think it's pretty hard to over-mix the ingredients to this point, but that all changes once you start adding the eggs and flour. Now you want to be very careful not to over-mix.
Add the eggs and stir them just enough to barely combine them. They don't have to be completely mixed in. Chef Keller warms that over-mixing the eggs could cause the cookies to expand too much and then deflate. It's possible that this happened to my cookies!
Add the flour ingredients in two batches, again being careful to not overmix them and then stir in the chocolate chips and chunks.
The directions say to chill the dough for 30 minutes before making cookies which seems like a good idea. It makes the dough easier to work with and also helps make sure the flour is hydrated nicely. While the dough chills you can preheat your oven to 325 degrees F.
Making Big Cookies
Chef Keller makes some big cookies. Like… dinner plate sized. The original recipe says to make your cookies weigh 150 grams per cookie! To put that in perspective, that means you would get just six cookies out of one batch of dough. It also means that you can only bake three cookies at a time on a baking sheet.
That's just insane to me so I made them smaller by half (75 grams). While I was weighing and shaping my cookies and hopefully getting 12 cookies per dough batch, I wondered if Chef Keller accounted for the two entire spoonfuls of dough I ate before making the cookies? Probably not.
I baked my cookies at 325 degrees on a silicon baking sheet for about 17-18 minutes. I think they flattened a bit more then they were supposed to but they still smelled really good.
I let them cool for a few minutes before digging in.
From the pictures in the book, I can tell that mine aren't exactly the same as the bakery version. They are thinner for sure, but they tasted really good and I kind of liked the crispy edges. They were definitely chocolate-packed which is always good when making chocolate cookies.
I can see why people might get frustrated with this cookbook but I think it's important to know that it's okay to adapt the recipes a bit. You might not end up with a perfect end product but it will most likely still be very tasty and better than if you exactly followed a mediocre recipe.
In other words, my cookies didn't turn out perfect, but they did turn out perfectly good.

How the Misery Begins7 Reviews
Jason meets the guys.
"I look like a nerd," I mutter.
"Perfect," Jess says, walking up behind me. "Talk with an accent and they'll never know it's you."
She turns and walks toward the door, obviously expecting me to follow her. But I don't I keep staring at the mirror, wondering. Sure, I look really different, but is that enough? I remember times when I could tell you who was walking down the bus aisle just from the sound of their footsteps. Or when Gerard dyed his hair snow white, but I could still pick him out in a crowd without even thinking about it. Or when Mikey left for a while and the feeling on stage was different, even though Matt played exactly the same as Mikey. I mean these guys know me better than I know myself, how could they not recognize me?
But I know why. Because they're not expecting it to be me. And honestly, they don't want it to be me. So subconsciously they'll help me out. They'll try NOT to see me when they look at Jason Demarko. They'll try to believe he's just Jason Demarko, Jess's pet guitar tech. And that's all I'll be.
I glance one more time at my reflection and see Jess tapping her foot impatiently in the doorway behind me. Honey, this mirror isn't big enough for the two of us, I think, and smirk. Then I rip my gaze away from the mirror and follow her out, leaving my two garbage bags of shit behind. It's stuff that's instantly recognizable as belonging to Frank Iero. I can't take that stuff on tour. Jess got me a bunch of new clothes. Nerd clothes. Those two bags hold my former life, and I'm walking away from it. The only thing I've saved is that old picture. Jess doesn't know I still have it. She'd be furious. If anyone found it, there'd be a lot of explaining to do. Nobody has a copy of that picture except me, and the guys would recognize it instantly as mine. But I can't let it go. I need that picture, it's all I have left.
I follow Jess out to her car. It's about an hour drive to where we're meeting the busses to leave. Jess uses the time to fill me in on who I am.
"Your name is Jason Demarko, you're from Cleveland Ohio, you're an only child and your parents are dead. No wife, no children. We met in an airport during a layover and have been close friends since. Before this you were an accountant," she smirks.
The rest of the car ride is full of various other insignificant details that I'm sure I won't remember and when we finally reach the parking lot full of busses and trailers I'm dying to get out of the car. But as soon as I do I wish I hadn't. I'm about to meet the guys. About to go out on tour. It's what I want more than anything, but I never wanted it like this.
Sighing I walk around to the trunk, open it, and pull my bags out. Jess grabs hers and I follow her over to the commotion. We weave through the maze of busses until she stops suddenly.
And there they are, my four best friends in the world.
"Jess! You're here," Ray practically shouts. I can feel myself wanting to tease him about his endless enthusiasm, but I don't.
"Hey guys," Jess calls out, leaning in to give each of them a hug. Then she steps back and introduces me. "Guys, this is Jason."
Gerard extends his hand and smiles. I realize I haven't honestly seen him smile at me in over a month. I take it and shake it briefly before letting go. "Gerard," he introduces himself.
I almost say 'I know' but I stop myself. Because I don't know. Well, Jason doesn't know. The rest of the guys introduce themselves in the same manner. Then Gerard turns back to me.
"Hey, there's been a bit of a problem organizing everything on such short notice, and since we didn't fire any guitar techs before adding you there's kind of no room on the bus that the techs share. So, um, you can't stay there. But there's an extra bunk on our bus and Jess has said nothing but good things about you, so if it's alright with you, you'll stay with us." He ends with a smile.
I'm speechless. It's hard enough spending this much time with them, let alone living with them again. I wasn't prepared for this.
I manage a smile. "That'd be great," I say, just barely remembering to disguise my voice.
"Sweet, we'll get you all settled in then." The rest of the guys and Jess are moving towards the bus doors but I can't move. Gerard stays with me and looks at me carefully. Everyone else is on the bus already.
"You know, you remind me a bit of Frank," he says. I stiffen. Already? I've only been here five minutes and I've blown it already?
"You mean the other guitarist?" I ask, feigning ignorance.
"Yeah. The other guitarist." He seems sad as he says that.
I know I shouldn't, but I can't stop myself, so I ask, "Do you miss him?"
He sighs, looking genuinely sad. "No," he says and a line of pain runs through my heart. "I mean, yes. And no. I miss who he was. I'd give anything to have the old Frankie back. But with the way he's been for the last month, the way he is right now. I never want to see him again."
He glances up at me. There's a long, thoughtful silence. "It's the eyes," he finally says. "You have Frankie's eyes in blue." Then he laughs, a sound I've sorely missed. "Wow, could I sound any gayer?" he asks, laughing.
If I were Frank, right now I'd be all over that. A million stupid comments and actions are running through my head right now. Grab his ass, kiss his cheek, tell him it's hot. But I'm not Frank. I'm Jason. And Jason wouldn't do that. Because Jason is a no fun accountant from Cleveland.
I pick up my bags and follow Gerard onto the bus. God this is going to be a long tour.
As always, rate and review. Thanks a million. Sorry it's short, I'm kinda losing interest in this story. Let me know if I should continue. I'm working on some other stuff at the moment. Love you to pieces (don't make me make that literal).


text: Last year in December, Felice Stewart (OCMC missionary serving in Tanzania) and I talked with each other about our respective ministries. At that time, I organized a workshop on making braided crosses with our girls during the sezatoare - knitting group. Felice placed a Christmas order, and the girls and staff at the half-way house went to work to fulfill this order before the Nativity of Christ. It was a good time, as we were in the middle of the fast, to talk about "taking up the Cross" and the protection of the Cross. Thanks be to God, Felice received the package but it was several days after the Nativity of Christ. She told me that Tanzanians cannot find crosses or the availability to buy crosses to wear around the neck. I provided this opportunity to the girls so that they can see that their hard work was appreciated and valued not only in their 'backyard' but all the way in Africa. I coordinated with Felice to have a follow-up skype call with the girls and staff. I gave the "nickel" tour of the half-way house and introduced everybody to Felice. The Cross of Christ brought us together, as Orthodox Christians, to help one another to grow stronger in the True Faith. Glory to God for all things!

I used this product in a goody bag for my son's birthday party. The pencil and eraser work well. The cap for the eraser tends to fall off easily along with when you place the pencil cap on the end of the pencil so you can write. Overall, for the price, this product is worth the buy.

Garlic and Herb Roasted Turkey Breast with Tarragon Mayonnaise

beachlife07 Posted: 04/20/10
We've served this on several occasions to friends and family--always with rave reviews. We usually present it as turkey sandwiches, offering different kinds of breads and rolls, cheeses, lettuce and tomato, and a couple side salads. It's a keeper!
koriander Posted: 08/16/10
Excellent recipe! The turkey turned out very moist and flavorful. I will definately make it again, and I might try it in the crockpot. Changes: used bottled garlic, fresh tar & sage, & dried lemon rind. Placed it on top of carrots in a small roaster since i don't have a rack. I didn't make the mayo, but will try it next time. Served with brocolli and Sweet Potato Casserole w struesel topping.

Herbal incense or synthetic cannabis is allegedly to contain a combination of conventionally utilized medicinal herbs, as according to its manufacturers. The medicinal herbs that were used are claimed to come up with mild effects with the general combination bringing about in a cannabis-like intoxication created by the formulation. The following are some of the common herbs listed on the packaging of some of the best known brands of herbal incense:
- Leonurus sibricus
- Nelumbo nucifera
- Zomia latifolia
- Leonotis leonurus
- Pedicularis densiflora
- Scutellaria nana
- Nymphaea caerulea
- Canavalia maritime
When the products were tested however by the laboratories in Germany and even in other places, it was indicated that a lot of the distinct fingerprint substances that are anticipated to be present from the supposedly plant components were not present. Also found to be present were huge amounts of artificial tocopherol. This indicated that the actual components may not be the same as what was indicated on the packaging. In addition to this, in November 2008, a German Government Agency has conducted a risk assessment test of the product concluded that it was very unclear where the artificial tocopherol had originated, what the actual plant components were, whether the subjective cannabis-similar impacts were actually yielded by any of the supposed plant components or rather may most likely be brought about by an artificial cannaboid drug.
There are several benefits that we could obtain from the utilization of herbal incense. The most basic concern is of course having the feeling of being relaxed. When utilized, the use of herbal incense generates a feeling of calmness. When performing meditation or yoga, most people commonly use it. Herbal incense can lessen the negative impacts of anxiety, stress and even depression. In addition to this, it aids in improving your quality of sleep. The soothing and pleasant aroma lessens the feeling of being anxious and provides serenity.
Not too many of people are aware of what it is an herbal incense. At its best form, herbal incense serve as an effective alternative medication that focuses on the utilization of aromatic herbal ingredients.
