Click for 6 additional photos of Lamb Kabob with Spicy Mango Chutney and Whipped Feta
It's not easy trying to come up with great recipes I think you all will enjoy. Some weeks, I just want to cuddle up on the couch and French kiss a bag of Styrofoam cheese puffs. But I doubt that you, my loyal readers, would appreciate hearing about my steamy love affair with Ben and Jerry, or my secret stash of Snickers bars in the freezer.
I used to get my food inspiration by spending time at the supermarket, slowly and deliberately perusing the aisles. I'd usually start in the produce section, looking to see what's fresh and glorious. I'd create recipes on the fly and fill my cart with ingredients from the imaginary dish that perched vividly in the thought bubble above my left eyebrow.
And then when I reached the seafood section, the glistening halibut would call for me, and blip! Sweet, buttery halibut with roasted tomatoes would quickly zap any trace of the previous dish in my head.
I'd have to run back through the aisles, returning ingredients and swapping out produce and plucking out new herbs. And then I'd get to the meat section and, oh, wow! Lamb is on sale! I can make Lamb Kabobs! I'd go through the exercise again.
I do consider this game great fun, though highly inefficient and awfully suspicious, especially to the loss-prevention team that eyeballs me every time I pass through.
If you're looking for food inspiration for your own meals at home, I suggest a more elegant method. Here are some of my favorite Web sites for recipes and meal ideas:
Tastespotting ( www.tastespotting.com) and Food Gawker ( www.foodgawker.com) – People from all over the world upload photos and links to their creations, and only the drool-worthy photos get picked to be featured on this site. It's like the intersection of food and pornography. If you're a visual person, these two sites are for you.
Foodbuzz ( www.foodbuzz.com) – One of the best food communities online. You can search for members just in the your area and add them as friends. Want to see the most popular recipes by food bloggers this week? Or maybe find recipes by food bloggers in Argentina? Look here.
Stumble Upon ( www.stumbleupon.com) – If you have a highly addictive personality, do not, I repeat, do not use this browser add-on tool. StumbleUpon is like channel surfing the Internet; each click of the button brings up a different Web page based on your interests and based on viewer feedback. You can rate thumbs up or thumbs down on each page, and the engine will fine-tune the results it sends back to you. There are millions of Web pages out there that are food-related; StumbleUpon helps you discover and rate them. I've spent hours clicking through new sites – it's easy to get lost in all the wonderful food content out there in the World Wide Web.
I also want to share some new finds on the web – have fun exploring these blogs!
Under The Tuscan Gun: Debi (do you recognize her famous face?) and yumyum huzb Gabriele cook up some sexy Italian.
Use Real Butter You've got to make this insanely simple grilled asparagus wrapped in prosciutto from Jen! Technically Jen's blog isn't a new find, as I've known her since I've started blogging, but wanted to give her a shoutout in case you guys haven't been over to her blog.
Sweet Paul I am so in love with Sweet Paul – I just discovered him via a Marx Foods contest. Not only is he the ONLY person in the world who can make prunes look drop dead gorgeous, but Sweet Paul also has easy decorating ideas for the home.
Vegan Visitor: I'm almost embarrassed that I won the Marx Foods contest because both Sweet Paul and Vegan Visitor totally rock! My fav pic of cauliflower ever in the whole wide world.
Wright Foods: I only have one thing to say. Any man with a temporary tattoo of a pig on his arm is cool with me. Okay, okay, so Matt's not really a new find either, but just go visit him, will ya? He's a good friend and has drop dead gorgeous food photography.
Bitchin Kitchen: If Nadia only knew how many times I've watched her video podcasts in the past 8 hours, she would think I'm a stalker.
So my inspiration for this recipe came from perusing some luscious photos from Tastespotting.com. One of the pics that caught my eye was of Greek spiced lamb kabobs, and off to the market I went. Fresh Market had a perfectly ripe mango, and I decided to make a salsa or chutney out of it. The week before, Michelle of the Culinary Sherpas brought me to Acropolis Greek Tavern in Ybor City in Tampa, where we both slathered whipped feta spread onto pita bread. And that's how this meal was born.
International inspiration!
Makes 4 servings.
For the mango chutney:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 red onion, diced
1/2 jalapeno, seeds discarded and finely diced
1 large mango, diced
1/4 cup sugar
4 tablespoons cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
Heat a small pot over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and swirl to coat. Add the red onions and saute until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and simmer for 15 minutes.
For the whipped feta and pita
6 ounces feta crumbles
1/4 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup olive oil
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Salt and pepper, to taste
Pita bread
Combine all ingredients except for the pita bread in a blender or food processor and pulse for 15 seconds, until smooth and creamy. Serve with pita bread.
For the lamb kabobs
1 pound ground lamb
1 clove garlic, finely minced
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus extra for brushing on grill
24 bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 20 minutes
Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Form long "patties" around doubled skewers. You can grill the kabobs on your outdoor grill or in your broiler, 3-4 minutes each side. Make sure you brush the grates with a bit of olive oil so the kabobs do not stick to the grates.

Love the idea of the whipped feta. Yum yum yum!
Amidst all the holiday flavors, which I am so bored with already, this is a welcomed recipe! It reminds me of the lamb Spiedies we made while I was growing up in New York- yum!
I have totally been in the mood for Mediterranean food for the last week. I considered doing chicken kabobs, but this looks really good! I even have a chunk of feta in the fridge that needs to get used up. You're a mind reader.
What a great change of pace from the 5 batches of cookies I've made in the last 5 days!
What a combination you have here!
I love lamb, feta, mango, and yogurt. Great!!
Hello, site's working now! I am so making this for dinner. Michelle took me to Acropolis, too, the whipped Feta is devine. Took a doggie bag on the plane, had to have been torture for anyone that was hungry. Bet they sold out of those little snack boxes right quick
It is a perfect combo for me! Tks for sharing your new finds!
Awww girlfriend, thanks for the shoutout. You always make the most amazing foods – it's *dangerous* for me to look at the recipes too closely or else I might not squeeze into my ski pants. Hope you and the boys have an awesome holiday. I look forward to 2009 when you make me snort my juice out my nose from all of the laughing in the mornings. xxoo
Thanks for all the foodie inspiration!
Your whipped feta reminds me of a spread we make in Bulgaria called Katuk. Blend feta, yogurt, and fresh garlic. More feta=saltier, more yogurt=creamier, more garlic=spicier. Just make sure you're not kissing anyone afterwards! It's addictive!
WHAT? There are Snickers hidden in the freezer? Oh, I'm so going to invade the freezer and search till I find them. All's fair in love and the Pursuit of Frozen Snacks!
Mmmm, feta. My husband said that my cooking catch phrase should be "Feta makes in better" because I like to put it in practically everything.
Woman, if I am looking for inspiration, I go to Steamy Kitchen!
LOOK delicious! Hey you can go Turkish with that dish as well!
Do you think that using beef would be as good as lamb? I love lamb, but I don't think the other eater in my house does.
Hi Jaden!
Excellent finding and food inspirations..the recipe is awesome lamb and yogurt yummmm
If the lamb kabob is addictive the social site stumbleupon is too..in an overall way!
Gera .:. sweetsfoods
On a foggy night in San Francisco, lamb can warm up the appetite.
Your recipe marries sweet notes with a rich protein.
keep writing!
Ms Jaden & family ,
Have a joyly Christmas and a wonderful New Year!!!
……. Love, Sunny & Sidney xxx
beautiful ~ that chutney looks fabulous! I was introduced to mango chutney while in college and have been hooked ever since.
This recipe looks amazing. I am getting a grill for my father for Christmas, I a might include this as the first meal.
yeah! Just like how your blog is also an inspiration to me as well.
Merry Christmas Jaden!! =)
Jaden, again you inspire me with a lovely post. The picture of the lamb is to die for! Thank you for the links as well, they are freshly added to my reader for future consideration.
I want to take a moment for you and wish you a happy holiday season, and all the best to you and your family. May there be many, many more posts to come. I cannot wait.
Jason Sandeman AKA WellDone!Chef!
As always, very impressive! This certainly goes against the grain of traditional (Western) Christmas food but that makes it no less welcome; surely a treat for those too full of Turkey!
This lamb kabob looks beautiful. Happy Holidays!
You wanna get inspired by Greek food, go see Peter M's blog Kalofagas
Merry Christmas to all!
i love this recipe… send some over to malaysia will ya?
merry christmas!
Merry Xmas dear Jaden, and happy new year, xoxo
Jaden, the kebabs look divine ! Wish you n your family a Merry Christmas and very Happy Holidays !
Enjoy the Holidays. Merry Chrismas!
Just love thos beautiful lamb kebabs!
Great looking lamb kebabs. Wonderful clean, well composed food photography too! Lamb is a fav. of mine, and these are something I would make in a heartbeat.
Thanks for the link-love too! you are awesome
Looking for lamb inspiration with a ton of mangoes sitting on my counter. I'm drooling!
Graet website, but i think it is only fair that you COMPLETELY desist from writing on "Indian Food" There is NOTHING called "Indian Food" we have at least 30 different types of cuisine in our country, some common ingredients maybe ( Like Olives are common in Mediterranean region cooking) but otherwise very different in approach, technique and output. May be a good idea to have your recipe section titled as India Inspired – Olive Oil, Feta Cheese, Pita Bread, Oregano… please dont insult a 5000 year old culinary tradition by referring to it as Indian.. India Inspired, your own creativity is fine, calling it Indian is not fine.
You being a total ass on my blog is not fine. The recipe isn't Indian – it's Greek. Didn't you read the post?~jaden
I've made this recipe three times now – and each time it's come out fabulous and I've gotten such rave reviews on it and I'm finally passing them back to you. This is a super easy, super delicious recipe. Thank you so much for sharing it with us!
Hi, the whole thing is going nicely here and ofcourse every one is sharing facts,
that's really good, keep up writing.

Well maybe if you had some skin… Some eyes? Maybe even a real face, it might be easier to imagine stuff. As it is you are naught but a sketchily drawn manikin. I'm sorry.
I have children who I created. sometimes I reward them. sometimes I punish them. srry your imagination is so limited.
Natedog's kids look just like Natedog.
You contributed half their genetic code. If I give someone half a blueprint for a house, that doesn't mean that I "created" the house.
whatever. i added the ingredients, mixed it all up, then baked it in an oven for nine months. and that was just the beginning, because after it came out, i had to raise it and fund it, etc…
I can't imagine a god who gave us vestigial organs like the appendix & wisdom teeth.
"You know what would be fun? If I stick a bunch of stuff in there that not only doesn't help the body, but can cause it pain and outright kill it sometimes. Now I'm off to punish gay dogs for sinning against creation."
God didn't give us those organs, Paul. We got those through evoluti…err… Intelligent Desi…wait, nevermind.
God didn't give me these organs. I stole most of them from hobos.
i'll give you an organ
NONE of us would be here if it were not for DOGGY STYLE.

These are traditionally sevred at Passover, when flourless desserts are the rule. The meringue can be very sensitive to humidity, so it's best not to make them on a damp day.
Cooking Light OCTOBER 1997
Preheat oven to 250°.
Beat egg whites and salt at medium speed of a mixer until foamy. Add cream of tartar; beat until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating at medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. Add vanilla; beat well. Fold in pine nuts and chocolate.
Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spoon egg white mixture into 16 mounds on prepared baking sheet. Bake at 250° for 1 hour or until dry to touch. (Meringues are done when the surface is dry and can be removed from paper without sticking to fingers.) Turn oven off, and partially open oven door; leave meringues in oven 30 minutes. Remove from oven; carefully remove meringues from paper. Store meringues in an airtight container up to 3 days.

On what she feels as though she, Lil Kim and Missy Elliot will bring back to the rap game:
It's kind of a good look for us [Missy & Kim] to all come out at the same time because we do really like each other and support each other. I feel like, I always represented — I feel like I am a regular chick that got a dope job. I got lucky. I represent the around the way chicks. I feel like right now in music, with Nicki out, she's not representing all females. With me coming out and Nicki coming out, she represents a certain type of chick and with Kim coming out, she represents a certain type of chick that may feel like they don't have a certain voice that's speaking for them and that represents them.
On female rappers she is feeling:
I like Azealia Banks. I think her style is dope. If you listen to her lyrics, she knows how to wordplay and I think that's cute. I'm not really into the Iggy Azalea chick. I can't really f-ck with her music, but her look is crazy. I just can't believe it (her music).
On which female emcees she would do a record with:
I would definitely have to get Missy. I would definitely have to do Kim because I never got to do a record with Kim. Azealia Banks, I like her. A lot of people want me to hate on Nicki and say crazy things about her. I ain't got nothing to say about her. Until somebody names me by name, then I don't feel like nobody is talking about me. I wouldn't have a problem putting her on a record just because … 'why not'. I try to be nice.

Complete forecast by
Text size:
United Township junior runner Austin Webster is known by his teammates as "Little Webster," but during crunch time, he provided his biggest performances. Webster propelled himself to the top, winning the Western Big 6 Conference and Class 2A Galesburg Regional titles. At the state meet, he finished in 19th place with an impressive time of 14:55. With one more season still on the horizon, "Little Webster" is thinking that big things are still ahead. Adding to the excitement is being named the Metro Boys' Runner of the Year for The Dispatch and The Rock Island Argus. Here's what Webster, whose older brother Cody was a decorated runner before graduating two years ago, had to say about the award. What was the biggest surprise for you this season? "Winning Western Big 6, regionals and almost winning sectionals. Getting down to 14:55 at state was huge for me. I hope to continue to improve next year." What was the highlight of your season? "At regionals, (UT teammate) Tyler (Rasso) and I got to race out ahead of the pack and see who would come away with the regional title. It was fun because there was nobody with us, and it was fun to race with my teammate and best friend." What are the team's goals next season as a talented junior class comes back for a senior season? "Tyler and I are looking to lead our team to even high expectations next season. It's our senior season, and we are looking to do something big." What do you love about the sport? "I love the distance. I can go long distance and not many people can do that. When people can run that far, you want to show your speed and talent over that distance." Who will be leading the pack for the Panthers next season? "Hopefully, it will be both Tyler and I. But I have set goals for myself to do the same thing my brother Cody did during his senior season. He kept lowering his times." What was it like to get All-State honors this season? "It was the biggest moment of my life. Last year, I didn't do so hot, finishing 47th. To get 19th was a big accomplishment for me, and to break 15 minutes was a huge accomplishment for me. Next season, I'm looking to finish top 10 and finish with a 14:30." Moment that you will never forget? "State. Getting a medal at state and standing up with the big dogs."

Sheffield Doc Fest 2014
Catherine Bray on her top picks from the 2014 Sheffield Doc Fest: Best Film, Best Talk, Best Q&A, Best Panel and Best Party.
The story of Sheffield Doc Fest is one of growth. The festival has expanded exponentially in its 21 year life span, from a gathering for mainly hardcore British documentary enthusiasts to its present status as one of maybe the top three documentary focused film festivals in the world. My favourite thing about Sheffield however, is not its size, but the variety. Like SXSW, it plays host to a bewildering array of panels, talks, masterclasses and mixers, in addition to the expected films. It makes it difficult to compile a Cannes-style top ten – you'd be comparing apples and oranges. With that in mind, I've picked a favourite from each category instead…
Best Film: 112 Weddings
The potentially twee concept of catching up with couples several years after he shot their wedding videos is anything but in the capable hands of Doug Block, who achieves a fine balance between questioning the institution of marriage itself, gently unveiling weaknesses in certain relationships, celebrating the people who make marriage work, and exploring why it so often doesn't. It's a clear-eyed film that comes across as neither cynical nor rose-tinted.
Best Talk: Grayson Perry
Managing the nifty trick of making a huge event for a massive audience feel intimate and engaging, An Evening With Grayson Perry (plus Q&A chaired by Channel 4 Deputy Chief Creative Officer Ralph Lee) was by turns funny, illuminating and touching. If you've yet to encounter Grayson Perry's particularly piquant brand of social insight mixed with a dissection of our tribal signifiers that occasionally borders on pitiless, do check out In The Best Possible Taste on 4oD.
Best Q&A: Steve James
One of the most personal post-screening Q&As unfolded in the humble surroundings of the Library Theatre, after Life Itself, a documentary unfolding the late film critic Roger Ebert's life in parallel with his final months. The film itself left many in the audience wiping away a tear and as a result, this Q&A had a different tone to most: less industry-focused, more personal and clearly full of people still feeling the gap in film criticism that Ebert's death has left.
Best Panel: International Distribution Strategies
Bringing together senior figures from every stage in the distribution chain, this panel at The Crucible, chaired by Film4's own Anna Higgs, provided a comprehensive look at the challenges and opportunities opening up in international distribution as a result of changing digital landscapes. Click here to see our Storify of the panel!
Best Party: Dogwoof's 10th Birthday
Dogwoof are the distributor for docs in the UK, so it felt only fitting that they celebrated their tenth year with a huge party featuring the Dressed Like A Girl dancers and a stage invasion. Happy birthday Dogwoof!
And finally…
Personal highlight: Beyond Clueless with live score
As well as being at the festival for Film4, I was lucky enough to be attending as a filmmaker, with the first feature I've produced, Beyond Clueless, getting its UK premiere in Sheffield's biggest venue, The Crucible, with a live score from the composers, brilliant pop duo Summer Camp. Obviously I couldn't rank a film I'd worked on alongside my other picks – there's a small chance I might be biased – but equally it was such a magical evening, I didn't want to leave it out entirely! If you'd like to know more about the film, check out beyondclueless.co.uk or listen to the title track below:

If you're still bootstrapping, maybe the metric is cash in the bank divided by your monthly living expenses.
If you've raised outside money -- especially if it has preference or automatic conversion built in -- the pressure is even greater. If you run out of cash before you show enough progress to justify a fresh raise, you risk losing control of everything you've built.
Hacking forward progress is the magic that founders do -- getting more done in less time than anyone (even you) thought you could.
The teams that do this best work forwards and backwards: they know exactly what investors need to see to get excited about an up-round, and they keep their day-to-day efforts tightly aligned with those must-hit milestones.
The teams that most often lose their way are the ones that forget the main goal -- staying alive -- and burn precious time going down rabbit-holes that have little chance of producing the required results. This is particularly true of product- or engineering-centric teams that keep applying the hammer of product development to the nail of growth, putting off the hard work of sales + distribution until it's too late.
When your team is small and resources are limited, the choices are relatively simple -- whatever the founders can do to hack growth, they do.
But when you've raised a decent-sized seed or Series A round, the math gets harder. Now you're not just investing founder time, you're deploying capital -- mostly on salaries for non-founder employees -- in hopes of accelerating your progress on every front that matters.
There are four important categories of effort that every startup team needs to keep in mind. Too much -- or too little -- weight in any one of these areas can lead to disaster when it comes time to raise the next round:
- Product
Seed investors exist to give teams of talented people running room to test a set of hypotheses. If those teams can demonstrate that a big / valuable audience actually wants what they're buiding -- what folks now call "achieving product / market fit" -- they're likely to be able to raise more money to scale into that opportunity.
Lean / agile development methods are the most common hack for achieving product / market fit in a hurry. Rather than going heads-down on major releases, development teams shorten cycle times and increase velocity, gathering customer feedback and making adjustments along the way to ensure that all development effort is in service of solving actual customer problems, not just scratching your own itch.
- Sales / Distribution
Despite the popular mythology of "viral" growth, even the best products don't sell themselves. High-performing startup teams put as much creative (and often, engineering) effort into their distribution strategies as they do into their customer-facing products.
Investors love a beautiful demo, but they love steep and accelerating customer and revenue growth curves even more. Early-stage teams usually can't afford armies of bag-carrying field salespeople, so expect to throw spaghetti at many different growth hacks -- content marketing, affiliate sales, email marketing, evangelist selling, channel partners, SEO / ASO, even ganking craigslist -- until you find out how to steepen those curves.
- Recruiting
Talent -- especially digital creative talent -- is more important than money these days. Attracting brilliant people to your team is the biggest challenge most young companies face, and hacking the talent wars is just as important to your startup's success as your product and sales chops.
The best founders understand that recruiting is their #1 responsibility -- in Vinod Khosla's words, "when I was starting my first company, I was more of a glorified recruiter than a CEO or a founder. I really spent well over 50% of my time recruiting, and I encourage all entrepreneurs to try and do that." Aggressive recruiting and fearless hiring are the only way startups build a bench deep and strong enough to keep up with hyper-growth.
- Storytelling
It may seem odd to rank this skill up there with the others listed above, but I'm convinced it rates equally among winning startups. It's not enough to hire amazing people, build great products and sell the shit out of them -- you also have to convince a world full of skeptics that your crappy little startup is actually going to make a dent in the universe. So in addition to all the showing you do, you have to get good at telling.
I'm not sure if storytelling is an innate or learned skill, but it's the kind of thing that hustlers excel at without thinking. Someone in the company has to be your Steve Jobs -- the guy (or gal) who makes people feel the magic, share the passion and join the parade as fans and advocates. Just as products don't sell themselves, stories don't tell themselves.
When the clock is ticking and your fear is welling up, your instinct is to go harder at whatever you're best at. Too often, that means more lines of code, because that's what you and your team know how to do.
Stop, take a deep breath and ask yourself -- do I have each of the four bases above covered? If not, take the time to rebalance your team and your time to make sure you do. Your odds of survival will go way up, you'll learn more, and I guarantee you'll have more fun along the way.

Faced with discrimination in China, dwarfs find a niche, camaraderie and an income source in ancient shadow puppetry.
BEIJING — For years, Lu Defeng fought back, hurt, when people visiting the warehouse he administered asked for his parents. Lu is a dwarf, a minority long condemned to lonely lives and lowly jobs in China.
But Lu, 25, found a job with "Dragon in the Sky," a shadow puppet troupe that employs only dwarfs, giving them fulfilling jobs and helping to keep an ancient tradition alive.
"It's difficult for us short people to find a job. We are not tall enough or strong enough," said Lu.
Dwarfs have traditionally faced discrimination in China and have fared no better in an increasingly modern and competitive economy.
But shadow puppetry is a niche in which dwarfs enjoy a comparative advantage.
Performers need to be relatively short to manipulate cut-out characters held up in front of an oil lamp that projects their shadows onto a paper screen.
The plays are an ancient form of Chinese narrative, often used to tell myths and fairy tales for children, and remain popular.
Founded in 2008 and run by 66-year-old Liu Lixin, who is of normal height, "Dragon in the Sky" has recruited dozens of dwarfs from across China. The average height of troupe members is 4 feet 2 inches.
"Deep down, these people feel they are inferior and humble," said Liu. "When they come to this troupe, we tell them we offer a job and a source of income."
"This group of people is now very happy, harmonious and united," said Liu. "They work with more and more energy."
It takes much practice to learn how to match the movements of the puppets with music and narration, as well as to coordinate with other performers. But when all goes well, the puppets move across the screen like real people.
"It was really cool. I think they practice a lot," said Diane Kim, 9, a student at an international school who came to a recent performance.
For many of the dwarfs, the troupe is now like family.
"I felt like there was only me on the planet," Wu Chunxiao, 22, who joined three years ago, said of his previous life.
"It's like a sheep finding its flock. I'm very happy to live and work together every day."

Today, the Nagurski Award announced its finalists for the best defensive player in the country. The players named including C.J. Mosley of Alabama, Aaron Donald of Pittsburgh, Lamarcus Joyner of Florida State, Michael Sam of Missouri and Darqueze Dennard of Michigan State. These players have been great this year, but the committee that comes up with the nominees for this award have have left off some of the best defensive players in college football this year that just so happen to play in smaller conferences or are independent.
The player who should win this award was not even a finalist, which is Buffalo linebacker Khalil Mack. People can use the MAC as a reason to leave him off the list, but in a game against Ohio State, he was the most dominant player on the field with 2.5 sacks and an interception he returned for a touchdown. His production has been out of this world this season. 47 tackles, 16.5 tackles for loss, 10.5 sacks, 3 interceptions, 5 forced fumbles, 6 pass deflections, and two touchdowns. Mack has been must watch television this season. He has done it all from playing the run to dropping into coverage to rushing the passer while lined up as a defensive end, outside linebacker and inside linebacker.
Another deserving player that has been left off the list is BYU linebacker Kyle Van Noy. Van Noy has been a do everything player for the Cougars. He has played any number of different positions in Provo this season and while he had a once in a lifetime season last year in terms of production, Van Noy was still fantastic this season. Van Noy has had 33 tackles, 14.5 tackles for loss, 4 sacks, 7 passes broken up, 2 interceptions and a touchdown.
The last player is from the Mountain West Conference and that is Shaquil Barrett from Colorado State. Barrett has been incredible this season and been dominant against big time opponents. Just against Alabama, Barrett posted 1.5 sacks. Overall, Barrett has had a great year with 29 tackles, 18 tackles for loss, 10.5 sacks, 1 interception, 2 pass break ups, 3 forced fumbles and 2 blocked kicks.
The five players nominated have been great, but few of them have put up the type of seasons these three have and no one in the country can touch what Mack has done as a defensive player this year. If the award is designed to reward the best defensive player in the country, they screwed the pooch. If it is to reward the best defensive player from an automatic qualifying conference, fine, but they should make that clear in the nomination process. Mack has an argument to be in the Heisman conversation with how dominant he has been this year, let alone the best defensive player in the country.

Hawks Defeat Columbus to Keep Rolling in December
Al Cimaglia | Dec 27, 2011 | Comments 0
The Columbus Blue Jackets do not get paid in beer and pizza because they are a professional hockey team. Although there are times when it looks like the Jackets can't really compete. Last night Columbus had a strong start as the Blackhawks still had visions of sugar plum fairies in their heads. In the end, the more talented club skated away with two points as the Hawks defeated the Jackets 4-1.
Even though the Blackhawks improved their home record to 13-2-3 Joel Quenneville probably had reason to criticize. The Hawks appeared to be a little off, their passing wasn't great and their defense was loose. Fortunately they were facing the worse team in the league and Jackets goalie Steve Mason wasn't particularly sharp. Columbus also missed 10 shots on the night which helped the Hawks notch another United Center victory.
Corey Crawford made 37 saves but was only strongly tested a handful of times. Crawford did make some nice stops in third period as his teammates lost focus and were outshot 14-5. Even though the Blue Jackets managed a 38-22 shot advantage the outcome was never really in doubt.
The Blackhawks have a great 9-1-1 record in December. They will close out the month facing Los Angeles and Detroit at the UC this week. Things have gone really well but the Blackhawks are in the strongest division in the NHL.
The top three teams in the Central Division are Chicago with 50 points, St. Louis has 46 points and Detroit has recorded 45 points. No other division in the league has its top three teams accumulating as many points as those in the Central.
The bad news is despite a very strong December the Blues and Red Wings are still in striking distance. St. Louis trails the Hawks by only four points with a game in hand. The hated Red Wings have played one less contest than the Hawks as well, and are only five points behind. Detroit will roll into the UC on Friday night and face the Hawks for the first time this season.
The next opponent on tap is the Los Angeles Kings with their new head coach Darryl Sutter. The former Blackhawk player and head coach was hired as the Kings bench boss on December 12.
The Blackhawks probably won't fare as well on Wednesday if they are outshot in the opening frame 13-5 as they were last night. The Hawks will have to play better versus the Kings and Wings to come away with victories. They will practice on Tuesday morning and should be more prepared and focused to face LA.

Being the last of the best modern body styles. This truck has tons of opions. For a V8 it gets good gas to the miles. Great work truck and an all-around town driver. Maintenance is simple, but if neglected. You will pay! So change the oil and have the transmission serviced on time.

Well over 200K miles now and still going. Other than the fuel pump (replaced twice) minimal repair work. With regular oil changes, scheduled maintenance, reliability and longevity have been far above expectations. May keep it forever. Very solid vehicle, and feel safe in traffic with the extra metal around me.

Nancy Fairbrother has been in the field of Personal Development for more than 30 years. Her passion is inspiring and empowering people to live the purpose they were born for. She discovered a revolutionary method for revealing the soul's purpose in Chaldean numerology.
In addition to her M.A. in Applied Psychology, she has extensive training and certification in intuitive counseling, psychic development, energy healing, and leadership training. She discovered that Chaldean numerology is a powerful assessment tool for the therapist as well as a powerful healing tool for the spirit.
Nancy believes that the cause of all physical disease and emotional trauma is due to being disconnected from one's own spirit, and she included esoteric processes which directly access the spirit in her counseling practice. Her clients were able to move through trauma faster and resolve issues, as opposed to learning to cope, when she used past-life recall, entity release, numerology, energy healing, and therapeutic breathing in addition to more conventional psychotherapeutic processes.
She believes life becomes a wondrous journey when we are living our purpose, that adversity presents opportunity to renew life, and that we all possess the inner resources to change our lives.
Review by:
Kris West
on Feb. 26, 2012 :
Nancy Fairbrother is a psychotherapist who uses numerology as an assessment tool in her work with her clients. In her book, she outlines a simple and concise history of numerology. She writes in a conversational style that makes the subject accessible. It is easy to follow the numerological guides to unlocking the codes to one's purpose, direction, and inner and outer lives. The book is written for both the novice and more advanced student, offering methods for uncomplicated and in-depth analyses.
(reviewed long after purchase)
Review by:
Jerry Lopper
on Oct. 23, 2011 :
If you're like most people, wondering what life is about and searching for meaning in your life, Fairbrother's book is a good place to start. As a life coach, I've always relied on self-reflection, meditation, and careful examination of the emotional clues of daily living to help people find life purpose.
I was skeptical whether numerology could be a useful tool in the search for life meaning, but was pleasantly surprised. It can!
Fairbrother's book starts out by removing some of the mystery from numerology and the term occult. This is interesting, but the real meat of the book is in constructing your personal Chaldean chart. With just two facts, your full name and date of birth, the chart provides excellent clues to your life purpose, your strengths, potential weaknesses, and challenges for your lifetime.
Skeptics might counter that the results could apply to anyone, but I found that not to be the case. My results were fairly specific and on-target while the results for different name/birthday combinations were well off target.
I recommend Fairbrother's book to anyone sincerely searching for life purpose, with the understanding that the results will provide clues and possibilities that should be combined with self-reflection and perhaps consultation to reach the best clarity of life purpose.

For Hometown News
MARTIN COUNTY -- The Guardian Angels, an organization fairly well known on the Treasure Coast for their volunteer team of citizen crime-fighters, is expanding their territory.
Long recognized in 200 U.S. cities and 14 countries around the world, the Guardian Angels have been protecting the Treasure Coast since 2004 and are expanding their watchful eye farther into Martin County.
Thirty-four years ago it started with a man saddened by the crime-riddled deterioration of his beloved Bronx neighborhood. He decided to take matters into his own hands and his attempts at deterring crime became a nation-wide endeavor.
Closer to home in 1989, Steve Horton, now chapter leader for the Treasure Coast, saw an ad on television for the Guardian Angels and immediately knew it was what he was meant to do.
"I want to make a difference - it's just in my blood. This was an opportunity to do that in a phenomenal way," Mr. Horton said.
Commercial cleaner by day, Mr. Horton spends his spare time with a group of eight other individuals patrolling neighborhoods and intimidating would-be criminals in order to reduce crime.
"We're here to help the community," Mr. Horton said.
They do so with intensive training, by developing a pre-determined course of action, and working hand in hand with local law enforcement, who appreciate their contribution.
Their goal is to be present in communities prone to violence and crime to ease the minds of peaceful residents and encourage shady characters to stay away.
"We're a fantastic deterrent," Mr. Horton said. "We're masters of intimidation."
The humanitarian crime fighters capped with their signature red berets are not about violence or vigilantism, but about making a difference and being prepared. They strive to be the eyes and ears of local law enforcement and have never had to resort to using physical force during incidents on the Treasure Coast.
"What we do works," Mr. Horton said. "We stop a lot of crime before it happens."
Their main goal is prevention, knowing that their mere presence helps keep unlawful activity at bay, so they teach neighborhoods how to run watch programs and patrol questionable areas.
But they are also active participants, helping locate missing teens last fall and striving to find a man who attempted to abduct a woman in Stuart this summer.
Mr. Horton said the Guardian Angels are always open to new recruits, men and women, who want to make a difference in their neighborhoods and give local residents the peace of mind they deserve.

This was delicious and so easy! The pear and pork go together nicely. The fennel is a strong flavor, but is delicious. I cooked it for an hour and a half, and it was perfectly done, so I recommend allowing more than the 70 minutes called for in the recipe. Great dish!

this recipe was phenomenal. the ingredients are simple, but the taste and quality are extremely satisfying. i made this for my boyfriend one evening while we watched movies: just cut everything up, seasoned and stuck in the roasting pan. when i opened the lid, the meat was perfectly juicy and the flavors of the pears, onions and fennel had mellowed out and complimented the meat fabulously. boyfriend could not stop praising, and we both ate WAY too much. needless to say, it's going to be a staple.

This recipe has been a staple in our house since the recipe came out. It's so easy to make and tastes great. We love it, kids and company love it, and any leftovers reheat well. Sometimes I use sweet potatoes instead of white when I want to boost the nutritional value, but the white potatoes generally work out better with the longer roasting time.

I've made this dish multiple times and I am always surprised by how delicious it is. It's a satisfying, simple, one-dish meal that really delivers on flavor.

Phenomenal! I have a new 'go to' to add to my list. The flavor is outstanding and it is so simple! I am going to have to incorporate pears and red onions in other roasts. It's a great flavor combo. This is a great weeknight item because you can put it in the oven and not worry about it at all. The only change I made was to cook it to 150 as recommended by other sites. While it rested the temp rose anyway. I find Real Simple recipes err on the side of caution for temps. Next time I might add another onion for those leftover sandwiches and wraps.

Valentine Dinner with roasted asparagus and double tomato soup. The onions and the pears were tasty with the pan juices. Pork was flavorful, soft and cooked for 70 minutes.

This was the most delicious pork recipe I have ever done. Hubby thought it was restaurant good! That made me smile. All the different ingredients made an explosion of flavor that was beyond description. Couldn't stop eating it!!!
Zabella Posted: 07/28/13
I have made this on several occasions and it always gets rave reviews. I love the simple flavor of crusty fennel on moist pork paired with the sweetness of onions and pears. I have also made this pork with roasted potatoes, carrots, and parsnips.

The Asinine New York City Soda Proposal
Mayor Bloomberg of New York City is either outrageously insane or incredibly brave (or maybe insanely brave). What's more absurd is that 42% of polled New Yorkers- according to CBSnews.com- agree with the New York Mayor that sugary drinks larger than 16 ounces should be banned.
Forty-two percent of New Yorkers ate too many paint chips when they were young.
The Asinine New York City Soda Proposal tells us two things. First, 42% of New York City dwellers are all cleaned,prepped, and ready to walk into their own Statist Enslavement Cage, one which comes with padded walls and floors and cameras in every room, should the deer-in-the-headlights drones find solid, edgy surfaces they may not be able to control themselves from running into. Secondly, the proposal illustrates there are perfectly eager tyrants-in-training who are more than willing to step it up (big revelation, I know). And just in case our voluntary slaves forget or have questions as to which freedoms – if any- they have left, I'm confident generous men and women in charge working for state chiefs like Mike Bloomberg-who, most likely won't have to comply by the same rules- will be happy to supply the inferior sheep with stacks of free manuals articulately describing the rules and regulations our caged citizens will have to abide by when it comes to when they can and can't flush the toilet.
I've heard this story before. The soda proposal is justified in much the same fancy, mumbo-jumbo-snake- lawyer-talk like all previous statist wall-erecting, liberty-stealing, proposals. It's always the same schtick with the commie-liberals. The Mayor's proposal is justified by saying that putting a lid on sugary drinks over 16 ounces is a protective and shepherd-like measure which will save potential consumers from heart attacks and taxpayers from paying the hospital bills of the obese. This is a win for the economic condition of the state. It's good for everyone. It is a very compassionate and economic move on the part of bureaucrats. With all the money they'll save, the generous state chiefs will have loads of leftover cash to employ more DMV employees who move at the speed of growing grass.
Since our government has such aptitude for keeping citizens healthy while being fiscally responsible, why stop at soda drink sizes? Why not regulate relationships? When you look at the different colors of the poo which is messy relationships, brilliant Columbia U professors can easily conclude that lives can be saved and tax payers spared if we can prevent idiots from ever getting together, and especially breeding. Break-ups can cause the broken-hearted to get overly drunk, get in their car and run over innocent people. Or suppose one of the involved parties kills themselves and, as a result, causes such guilt and sadness among family and friends that half of them will get drunk and kill innocent people while the other half will have nervous breakdowns and spend months in state mental institutions, a stay charged to taxpayers. Broken hearts cause depression. Depression causes a good number of people to overeat and overdose on sodas. Let's stop the break-ups. Get on it Nazi Nanny.
Once government has developed an iron-clad method for determining which relationships would be beneficial for citizens and government alike, another measure which would improve our Great Society is an exercise mandate. This is a no-brainer. All they have to do is structure individual exercise regimens and assign a Government Exercise Agent- kind of like a exercise probation officer- to every twenty citizens, to make sure 'recommended" regimen is being followed. Voila! Everybody is healthy and nobody is sad because they are in a perfect relationship.
At what point is it too much? If the goal is to protect us from ourselves in the pretense of building a better tomorrow, then there are plenty of opportunities for compassionate nannies like Mayor Poppins to come to the rescue. All we have to do is relinquish freedom.
There's an epidemic more dangerous than obesity. It's called Stupidity. Stupid has permeated the thoughts of average Americans all over the United States, not just in New York City. This mentality is the same mentality which says a good way to stop criminals from shooting people is by making guns illegal for those likely to get shot. This same mentality is also one which, despite all historic and contemporary evidence to the contrary, naively believes bureaucrats- not even in a New York minute- would ever want to deprive citizens of their God-given rights.
We must get past the lawyer jibber-jabber and the out-of-context studies meant to convince us to lay our guard down and trust every power-hungry jackal who wants to get us to roll over to his commands. We are so deep in this forest of statist overreach that we've forgotten what freedom actually looks like (hint, hint: any sort of ban on food or drink is not part of it). Americans didn't fight and die so centuries and decades later politicians would have the audacity to tell us we're too stupid and void of self-control to do what's best for us. If I'm too stupid and lack of self-control, screw off and leave me be! It's my right to self-destruct.
I could care less about soda sizes. I don't even drink soda. This proposition had nothing to do with obesity. This is about power-greedy vultures circling around, testing to see how dead Americans are. If there are live Americans, we have an obligation to be insulted.
Let's not forget that 58% of those polled New York City dwellers said "no" to the New York city Mayor's proposal. Never in history has freedom been won or preserved because everybody was on board. In 1775, the Continental Congress was debating what to do regarding the Redcoats on their soil. The great patriot Patrick Henry had to remind them the cannon fire they were hearing and the British ships along the coast should be an obvious sign that war has already been declared whether they want to accept it or not.
It's time to gather up the troops we have and express our dissatisfaction so ferociously that bureaucratic vermin will stop short of the fear of God next time they consider another stupid, freedom-infringing tactic. Enough is enough. These lunatics need to be fired. This is a land ruled by law, not by constituent liberal idiots who stand by, even help, pass idiotic legislature. I don't care how much money this Nazi Nanny has. The judge that told him he's ridiculous didn't need billions of dollars to tell him it's unconstitutional.
Let's wake up and send that sly, suited lizard back to the rock he crawled out from. He and all his cronies.

How You Can Make a Fresh Start
- Thursday, August 20, 2009
Find true friendships. Loneliness can make you feel stuck without hope of finding others who will truly care about you and share life's joys and sorrows with you. But God will give you the courage you need to reach out to people and form true friendships. Realize that you and a few close friends can be better together than you can be apart, because you can grow through your friendships into the people God wants you all to become. Ask Got to give you abundant opportunities to connect with people and cultivate close friendships with them.
Redeem rejection. Memories of past rejections can leave you stuck without the will to take new risks and try to pursue God's best for your life. But while people in our fallen world will inevitably let you down, God will always be there for you when you need Him. You can have complete confidence that God loves you unconditionally and will help you move forward with your life to fulfill good purposes. Choose to live to please God, not other people.
Ask God to help you see the potential that He sees in your life. Pray to have compassion on the people who reject you, realizing that they're hurting people in need of God's grace, just like you. Let your experiences of rejection make you a more compassionate person toward other people. Invite God to pour out His love through your life to help heal the pain that others feel and draw them to Him.
Attack anger. If you're stuck in anger, God will give you the peace you need to overcome it. Delay responding immediately to people and situations that make you angry. Step back to ask yourself, "Why am I really angry?" Realize that anger is a secondary emotion; try to identify what the primary emotion is that's causing your anger (frustration, disappointment, annoyance, fear, etc.). Defuse your anger by choosing to respond in a peaceful way, despite your feelings (such as deleting an offensive e-mail without reading it or making a joke about a hurtful comment someone makes). After you've had enough time to calm down, you can confront the people who make you angry through calm conversations that let them know how they made you feel. Pray for the wisdom and power you need to choose peace over anger.
Share your story with others. Let people who don't yet have relationships with Jesus know about how God has given you a fresh start in life. Talk with people on common ground (wherever you all are regularly together, such as at work, school, or your favorite restaurant). Accept people as God's creations, even when you don't agree with their lifestyles or approve of their choices. Avoid being preachy, pushy, or phony with them.
Simply share the story of what you life was like before Jesus and what it has been like since Jesus changed your life. Then naturally shift the conversation to them, asking about something simple like: "What about you? Have you ever had any interest in God?". As you're faithful in caring for people, you can expect God to do the rest of the work to draw them into relationships with Him. Celebrate how God uses your own fresh start to inspire other people to pursue fresh starts in their own lives.
Keep going strong. Stay closely connected to God so you can live with passion each day and depend on God's power to help you live out the right values. Your fresh start can keep propelling your life in the right direction.

Jupiter Chief Frank Kitzerow, President of the Florida Police Chiefs Association, on Thursday urged Floridians to rethink their support of the proposed amendment to legalize marijuana in Florida.
Kitzerow, speaking in Manatee County, called the effort a potentially dangerous threat to families and communities.
"Regardless of any state laws, recreational marijuana use is still illegal on the federal level because of its high potential for abuse and the fact that there is no currently accepted national standard for use as a medical treatment," said Kitzerow. "It's important to understand that expanding the use of marijuana for medical purposes is not a safer way to [More]

Audioboo regenerates for iOS7…
Dear all,
Today sees the launch of our new Audioboo app for iOS devices… all of them, in fact.
Our new app combines the reliability of Audioboo Classic with the new features of Audioboo 2, and wraps it all in an iOS7-friendly format.
It also has:
- recording quality tweaks
- simpler sharing and favouriting
- improved VoiceOver support
There's a couple of things to note:
- This app works natively on iPhones/iPods AND iPads – so whatever you're working with, you should get the full range of features.
- It works equally well under iOS6 (so while it's much prettier on iOS7, if you're sticking with 6 for a bit we'll still support you).
- All channels you can record to now come with both Follow and Contribute (i.e.: Record) buttons.
- If you're a Channel Admin or named Contributor,you can now jump straight to your Channels from the Drawer UI and hit Contribute, or use the drop down at the top of the Record screen.
- All users of Audioboo Classic should get an Update through the AppStore in the normal way.
- Audioboo 2 and Audioboo for iPad have now been retired. We're going to send a notification to users of AB2 and iPad later this week so that they can change over. So as of now, we've got one app to rule them all. (If you want to change over now, click here. Make sure you upload any queued clips first.)
- We will be working on an equivalent Android upgrade when we can.
if you have any issues, tweet me @AudiobooSupport (or for anything that doesn't fit into 140 characters, hit the Forums at forum.audioboo.fm).
All the best – and hope you enjoy the new app.
One Response to "Audioboo regenerates for iOS7…"

Jiayuan.com International Ltd ADR Stock Upgraded (DATE)
- ACTIVE STOCK TRADERS: Get full access to Jim Cramer's thoughts for less than $3/week - sometimes before he says them on TV! Start with a 14-Day Free Trial.
- JIAYUAN.COM INTL LTD reported significant earnings per share improvement in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($0.30 versus $0.19).
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Internet Software & Services industry. The net income increased by 1211.4% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from $0.25 million to $3.23 million.
- When compared to other companies in the Internet Software & Services industry and the overall market, JIAYUAN.COM INTL LTD's return on equity is below that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- The gross profit margin for JIAYUAN.COM INTL LTD is rather high; currently it is at 65.10%. Regardless of DATE's high profit margin, it has managed to decrease from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, the net profit margin of 20.80% trails the industry average.
- DATE's stock share price has done very poorly compared to where it was a year ago: Despite any rallies, the net result is that it is down by 31.78%, which is also worse that the performance of the S&P 500 Index. Investors have so far failed to pay much attention to the earnings improvements the company has managed to achieve over the last quarter. Turning toward the future, the fact that the stock has come down in price over the past year should not necessarily be interpreted as a negative; it could be one of the factors that may help make the stock attractive down the road. Right now, however, we believe that it is too soon to buy.

Hi all, I'm looking at moving soon and am trying to get a budget sorted for bills etc. I was wondering if people had any opinions and experience of a good broadband package. Anyone got braodband, phone, tv etc?
I dont want to spend too much, but I would like a reliable supplier as I used a cheap company in the past and the connection was awful.
