For those of you who decorate with real Christmas trees during the holidays, did you know you have a valuable conservation asset that can have a positive impact well beyond the holidays?
By "recycling" your real Christmas trees through the annual Christmas tree collection program, area residents can improve fish habitat in the City's lakes in the Recreation Complex and R.S. Matthews Park, and the Corps of Engineers' Lake Wappapello.
The City of Sikeston Park Division, with assistance from Pullen Brothers, Inc., is collecting real Christmas trees again this year for use as fish shelters in the City's two public fishing lakes and at Lake Wappapello.
Beginning Wednesday, December 26 and continuing through Wednesday, January 9, local residents may take their real Christmas trees to the designated collection site on Airport Drive behind the old Chamber of Commerce building. On Thursday, January 10, Park Division employees will load the trees collected on to a trailer provided by Pullen Brothers, Inc. for transport to the Corps of Engineers at Lake Wappapello. If enough trees are collected, a portion of the trees will be taken to the City's two lakes in the Recreation Complex and R.S. Matthews Park where they will be bundled in small groups to be submerged in the lakes for fish shelters. The past four years response from the public has been down with not enough trees being collected to create fish shelters for all the lakes. Area residents are encouraged to continue their support of this conservation effort to continue to improve fishing conditions in the area's lakes. For more information on the Christmas tree drop-off site and program, contact Jiggs Moore at 475-3725.

Some banking experts predict that the Federal Reserve's disclosure of the financial institutions that tapped an emergency-lending tool could make banks more reluctant to borrow from the central bank.
"I have concerns that it will make banks more reluctant to borrow and reduce the efficacy of a critical central-bank function in a crisis," said the former Fed vice chairman who retired in September after 40 years at the central bank.
The treasurer of a regional bank that didn't borrow from the Fed during the crisis said that "the perception is that if you need to borrow money from the Fed, you are in a position of weakness." He said his bank went to the Fed for emergency lending only once: on Sept. 11, 2001.
"I remember thinking this is the biggest deal in the world," said the executive.
The discount-window borrowing was disclosed as a result of lawsuits filed by Bloomberg LP's Bloomberg News and NWS, +0.90% 's Fox Business Network. News Corp. owns Dow Jones & Co., publisher of The Wall Street Journal.
The figures released Thursday reflect borrowing by banks from August 2007 to March 2010, including the direst months of the financial crisis.
Last summer's Dodd-Frank financial-overhaul law requires the Fed to provide discount-window loan details made after July 2010 with a two-year lag.
One banker said even that delay could cause outsiders to "make a mental note" of a bank's weakness.
"Anything that makes it scary for a bank to use that kind of support when it needs it or anything that might trigger panic unnecessarily would be dangerous," said a fellow at the Brookings Institution.
a former Fed economist who now teaches at Hamilton College, called the discount window an important "safety valve" that helps the Fed manage financial crises and day-to-day operations of the federal-funds market. The tool is useful even for healthy banks because "there are certain shocks to the system" that are hard for banks to predict, she said.
In the past, analysts and bankers might have been able to make an educated guess about which firms were borrowing at the Fed's discount window.
"This time it's very explicit," she said.
chief economist at research firm Wrightson ICAP, said the details released Thursday "will send discount-window activity into a deep freeze for at least a generation." Headlines about banks "milking" the government for cash during the crisis will persuade banks to stay away from the window.
JPM, -0.34% & Co. Chief Executive said Wednesday that the changes "will make it harder for people to use the discount window in the future." A spokesman declined to comment further Thursday.

Our guild was the only alliance guild (maybe the only guild?) on our server to kill one of the brain-bugs during that event. (And no, we didn't cheat by dragging it to the guards; we did it the hard way.) Happy memories! Teebu's Blazing Longsword was one of the drops we saw that day, too. After the event we all lined up near the camp at the entrance to Silithus for the loot distribution. My rogue and one of our warriors were the only two eligible to roll on it... and I won! It's still one of my prized possessions - even now I'm still known to bring it out from time to time.
One of WoW's epic events, and one that I'll probably remember forever :)

Though it appears that the queen's own daughter, Princess Amensu (Josephine Davison), is the killer, the princess is actually a pawn in the schemes of Prince Ramses (Toi Iti), who has all the powers of the Necromicon (aka The Book of the Devil) at his disposal.

That's actually kind of a neat idea. I raid myself, but I know countless people and friends who aren't really the raiding/dungeoning types and who can't see content until it's 3 expansions past, if at all. Something like the above would be a fun encounter just for sightseeing, and since there would be no loot rewards the only people who'd do it were ones who were equally interested in seeing it and probably wouldn't be a bunch of jerks.

A Vidrine family is lucky to be alive, after a tree fell on their house, trapping them inside. Thursday night's severe storms are to blame for the chaos. According to the National Weather Service, an EF1 tornado with ninety mile an hour winds, left over two miles of damage behind in the Vidrine area.
That includes a tree that fell on the Johnson's home, destroying everything inside. According to Stephanie Johnson she grabbed her two girls and puppies and went into hallway. Johnson says she had to hold her foot against the door because the wind was sucking everything up. The Johnson's home was destroyed and they lost everything they owned.
A donation account for Stephanie, her two daughters who are twelve and thirteen years old and her fifteen year old son has been setup at Jeff Davis bank. Checks can be made payable to Tracy Ann Campney benefits for Stephanie Johnson, account number 55001587.

Expand Your M(eye)nd.
The other day, while working, I noticed a strange sculpture being set up across the street from our shop. I headed over, armed with a 5D MK II and a 24-70mm f/4 and 300mm f/4 lenses, and started to take photos of what appeared to be a mass of chairs stacked into a column, with an entrance way at the north and south sides.
After speaking with some of the workers, I found out that the structure was intended for this year's Nuit Blanche festivities, and was an installation by world renowned artist Tadashi Kawamata, from Hokkaido, Japan. The display stands at least 20 feet in height, and is made up of a skeletal framework of steel, and hundreds of discarded chairs which are attached in a tower-like shape.

As a fan of Downset, I wasn't really surprised when the band split up in 2009. They claimed that "the band has run it's course". As a fan, I believe that.

As a total fan of hardcore metal, it's a genre that doesn't always make a lot of sense. Certainly, there's no real questioning why a band like Agnostic Front is the "Black Sabbath" of the genre.

Holy shit! Who saw this coming? In an astonishing detour off the band's well-trampled musical path.

We all recognize the greatness of Dio. There is no denying the fact that he is, arguably, the best metal vocalist in the genre's history. I'm pretty sure that almost any metalhead, be they fans of hair metal or death metal, would ever have a problem hearing a Dio tune cranked up and rockin' their surrounding area. Clearly, he's one of the most missed singers to have passed on.
That said, this new collection is total crap. THE VERY BEST OF DIO 2 is a total cash grab. Featuring mostly songs from albums that most of the diehards only bought out of respect for the man and his legacy, BEAST 2 is nothing more than a shorter collection of average songs from most of the lesser albums of Ronnie's great career. This said, the songs are not horrendous or anything. It's just that when you listen to so many of the original Dio albums like THE LAST IN LINE, HOLY DIVER or SACRED HEART and then follow it with this material, you are left vastly disappointed. From a strictly fan perspective, most of this material on THE VERY BEAST OF DIO 2 is songs that drove Dio from the arena stages to the club stages. It's material that wasn't good enough to keep him relevant, which drove him back to Black Sabbath and then Heaven And Hell. So much of this material came at times when Dio had kind of lost his audience. Songs like "Shivers" are a prime example. If you lined up 10000 Dio fans and asked them to name their favorite 25 Dio songs, this song would get less than 1% response. The reason - it's not a good song. This song came from one of Dio's very worst albums, MAGICA; an album that even the most fervent Dio fans hated. And yet, THE VERY BEAST OF DIO 2 has no less than four songs from this abysmal album. "Fever Dreams", "Lord Of The Last Day" and "Feed My Head" all clog up this already subpar release with far too much material from this awful album. The reality is that I have owned this album since the day it was released, and have never been able to listen to four songs in a row because it's so below the rest of Dio's majestic catalog. As if that wasn't bad enough, you then get the horrendous "Black" from ANGRY MACHINES; a song where Dio not only sounds out of key, but so do the guitars throughout. Terrible.
PITRIFF RATING - 33/100 - Most of the points I give here are solely out of respect to Dio; the greatest vocalist and the nicest of all the rock stars I've met in my life. There's no hiding it though - THE VERY BEAST OF DIO 2 blows goats. I'm going to assume that this release is about $10-$15 to purchase. If it's $15, I'd bet you can go to any store still selling used CDs and get the catalog of discs that make up the material here for less in the cutout bins. No one bought these albums then, and no one is going to want a collection of songs from them now. Terrible.

What Rory Did Next – Arthur Darvill Is Sam The Penguin
via BleedingCool:
Now that his tenure is winding down and his days in the TARDIS are almost over, we're bound to hear tell of what Arthur Darvill will be doing once he's said goodbye to The Doctor.
At least one of these projects will be very… interesting. Here's the official blurb for Penguin:
The film tells the story of Sam (Darvill), a guy who is unlucky in love, who just happens to be a two-foot tall puppet penguin. We are currently in pre-production on the film, and have obtained our puppet, and have recorded Sam's dialogue. The next step will be principal photography, which we have provisionally set for the end of March.
There's a tie to Darvill's past here – apparently, his mother was the Why Bird on the I'm-A-Bit-Too-Old-For-This-One kids' show, Playbus.
Also starring in the short will be Daniel Caren, as a human, with his own pupils. Good work, Daniel – that will help cut down on post production nicely.
If you want to support the project, they have an Indie Go Go page set up. Penguin has been written and will be directed by Jack Gregson, and amongst its producers are sometime Bleeding Cool contributor and "man about town," Ben Mortimer.

And to add on to it, people are constantly complaining that Blizzard is milking them and they're a multi-billion dollar industry which can obviously support themself by making games like WoW cheaper, additional services free, etc. When in reality, Blizzard pays its employees slightly less than the average software developer should make in each of their positions. The CEOs aren't pocketing huge chunks of income either, the reality is that to pay thousands of employees, to fund Blizzcon, shit isn't cheap. Leviathon, I guarentee you that if your mommy or daddy both worked for Blizzard, you would be saying otherwise, because they need to eat too.

Old Vines, Fine Wine
Regarding Amador County Zinfandels, flavors can be astonishingly intense especially when the vines come from shy-bearing graybeard vineyards.
...See March 18,1997 WineDay.
Picnic Hill is our oldest vineyard. Planted at the turn of the century, these old vines produce a classic Amador County Zinfandel.
...Jan and Bruce Tichenor, Story Winery owners.
The 1995 Old Vines Picnic Hill Story Zin is beautiful. Over the last 10 years my tasters have been giving Amador Zinfandels higher and higher ratings. Try this one and you'll know why.
1995 Old Vines Zinfandel, Picnic Hill Vineyard
From the U.C.-Davis tome on Principles of Winemaking: It is not intuitively obvious that a robust vine bursting with healthy shoot growth is not desireable for the production of [high quality] wine grapes...This excess vigor is not a problem in old, depleted vineyards with devigorated rootstock, [such as 90-year-old Picnic Hill].

Henry has increasingly bizarre dreams, each one more horrific than the last. He falls in love with a girl who then falls pregnant only to give birth to a mutated baby. All the while watching his lady in the radiator who sings to him.
It's hard to believe that David Lynch was in a six-year struggle to make Eraserhead on a piffling American Film Institute grant. It's harder still to believe that its closeted body horror and mind-blown surrealism have since almost become a part of the cultural landscape. Almost. For no matter how many cheesy pop videos or arty horror flicks rip off its (very late-70s) aesthetic of slimy industrial decay, this film remains as powerful, original and disturbing as ever.
The central conceit of boy-meets-girl-has-mutant-baby is still the stuff of American Gothic nightmares and Lynch's repertoire of soft squelches, thin skins, horrible blobs and panicky gestures remains an enduring archetype of puritan sexual disgust. What is surprising is how Jack Nance's grumpily delicate performance as the frustrated father, Henry, has become a period piece. With his trademark props — pens in breast pocket, electro-shock hair-do, white socks — he has come to resemble an old silent comedian stranded in a Bunuel twilight zone where the familiar punch-lines don't work anymore. He is at once more charming and less grotesque than he used to be.
What emerges most clearly from the film, post-Twin Peaks, is the offbeat humour. The old black comedy is still there — Henry's crazy in-laws and their nervous tics, the mini-chickens which come alive on the plate, the final infant apocalypse — but it is now boxed in by a more insistent tone of uncanny menace which surely amounts to a put-on. Think of the smiley lady-behind-the-radiator stomping the foetal worms which are ruining her act, or the creepy, echoey sound-effects, or Nance's puzzled reaction shots — they are like that moment of blankness which precedes a surprise party. Except, with Lynch, the blankness goes on forever and the party never happens.
One of Lynch's earlier works, this bizarre offering warned what was to come, yet somehow this is a lot more radical and enjoyable than his later Hollywood efforts. Gothically shot in black and white and numerous shots that have influenced the next generation of directors, this is a classic, no matter how comfortable it is to watch.

This disturbing, surreal experience of a movie. It appears that many are giving this bad reviews because they found it "disturbing" and they "don't get it". That's fine, nobody is really expected to "get it". But the logic behind it all comes later, it's incredible how Lynch can convey these palpable feelings of dread to the viewer despite the fact nobody genuinley understandsthe plot. And it works...almost too well. ... More

I love all of Lynch's other films (maybe with the exception of Dune) but Eraserhead, I really struggled to get through. For a 90 minute film, so little plot or sense is just too hard to deal with. Maybe if I understood a bit more then I might give it a higher rating. I'm not criticising Lynch because he probably doesn't care if people like me don't get his film but I just cannot see how this film could get five stars in a review. ... More

|Very surreal
This one is yet another weird one and probably the weirdest of all of Lynch's films and maybe the weirdest film ever. The plot well ummm babies and erasers come to mind but i have tried to wipe my mind of what actually happened as it is just to weird for someone my age to have in their head. But definetly a worthy contender of most original film of the 70s and if your a fan of surrealist cinema (El topo etc.) then is one to watch!! Go get it now. ... More

Videogame 'athletes:' Are you college scholarship material?
Read a college sports story and list how players' skills are similar to – or different than – those of video gamers.
Look for news about another recreational activity and tell why it does or doesn't appeal to you.
Pick an article about an electronic device or other technology and list the main school subjects that help prepare for jobs that field.
Varsity video gaming? Don't laugh. Robert Morris University in Chicago has recruited about 30 online sports players this fall with half-tuition scholarships totaling more than $500,000. So even if you don't have strength, speed or skill for an athletic scholarship, now there's an alternative if your eye-brain reflexes are nimble and you're fast at a console.The small private university says it recognizes the legitimacy of what are called e-sports. So leisure-time hours of playing could pay off – especially for those good at League of Legends, one of the most popular online video games. Its players of that game control warriors in a science fiction setting.
Gamers at Robert Morris this fall join more than 100 other schools in the Collegiate Star League, where League of Legends opponents include teams from Harvard, Arizona State and George Washington University. The Illinois school wants to be at the "forefront of providing opportunities for a diverse student population with different interests and skills," says an associate athletic director in charge of the new program. Scholarships awarded for the current academic year cover up to 50 percent of tuition, housing and meals – worth as much as $17,000 to $22,000.
In addition to college tournaments, there also are professional video game competitions that sell out giant arenas. Some attract at-home audiences larger than those of top traditional sporting events. Prizes have soared to the millions of dollars, and top players attract big followings.
University says: "League of Legends is a competitive, challenging game which requires significant amount of teamwork to be successful." – Kurt Melcher, Robert Morris University associate athletic director
Student says: "This is a very mentally taxing game, especially when you're being pitted against five other individuals." – Andrew Dixon of Lockport, Ill., senior at Robert Morris who plays League of Legends
Pro league executive says: "If you don't want to call it athletics or sports, that doesn't . . . change the reality of the massive growth we're seeing." – James Lampkin of Electronic Sports League, based in Germany

Just G: Dreaming of Soft Denim
While it's too hot to wear your favorite jeans out, resort to other denim styles that's more summer-friendly! Just G recently came out with a bunch of soft denim style items that are sure to be staples in your closet. It's perpetually summer here in Manila anyway!
(Just G top and shorts, S&H flats, Kate Spade bag) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
I rarely do sleeveless tops + shorts combos because I usually like balancing things out (sleeveless + pants / long sleeves + short bottoms). However, when the weather is killer, these kinds of breezy tops and shorts can do all sorts of miracles.
(Just G dress, Dazzled Bags satchel, Blackbeard shoes) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
The most ideal casual summer dress for all those like me who embrace that "girl-next-door" style!
I can't stress enough how Just G is always on point with their dresses! I love how this particular one has these little lace details that are subtly slimming. The cut is also universally flattering for all body types.
Eat all you can and your (lower stomach) pooch will never show! This is how I pick out the style of my clothes, lol.
(Just G top, Romwe pants, Sleeh heels, Proenza Schouler bag) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
When talking about summer style, you can't rule out light, breezy tops with relaxed silhouettes! This one comes with embroidery details in Just G's signature orange color. Pair with floral pants and a bright-colored bag for a perfect weekend look.
Just G boutique stores can be found in SM Megamall, Market Market, Sta. Lucia, SM Southmall, Eastwood City, SM North Edsa, SM Manila and SM Cebu. Just G and Gingersnaps share spaces at Shangri-la, Rockwell, Robinsons Metroeast, SM Baguio and SM Pampanga. They also have department store corners at SM Megamall, Robinsons Galleria, Landmark Trinoma, SM Makati, SM Mall of Asia, Robinsons Festival Mall, SM North Edsa, SM Cubao, SM Pampanga, SM Southmall and Robinsons Ermita.

Trendspotting: White
This is one cliche that I will always approve of. White has always been a staple color for spring/summer fashion, but with the black-and-white color blocking trend still staying strong, it's the perfect time to invest in all the white that you need in your closet!
(OASAP top, shorts from Japan, Gold Dot Kaley peep-toe shoes, Dazzled Bags satchel, EMODA earrings) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
A white top can match pretty much anything and everything! I love this particular one as it has this trendy mesh detail that adds a subtle hint of sexiness. Add a pop of neon for more fun!
(EMODA top and earrings, Zara pants, INGNI headband, FashionCookie ShoeAvenue wedges) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
White pants can be difficult to pull off for most people (and not to mention, can induce major stain paranoia) but the right cut and the right fit can give you a fresh and unique look.
(Sophiscat blazer, INGNI top, Mango shorts, GUESS heels, Cole Vintage bag) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
A white jacket need not look like a doctor's white coat. This particular one has sequins on them, making it a good day-to-night add-on to a seemingly casual outfit. I'm actually just wearing a simple chiffon top and plain denim shorts underneath!

MOFW 2012 Hong Kong Day 3
(2% x miffy top, Zara shorts, Esperanza boots, Dazzled Bags satchel, SM Accessories necklace and earrings, Bayo glasses) Hype this look on Lookbook here. Photos by RG.
2% x miffy collection for day 3 of My Own Fashion Week Hong Kong! 2% is one of the uniquely "Hong Kong" brands that I never fail to visit - they have a wonderful selection of brands that cater to different tastes, but you can also mix and match all their items to create interesting coordinates that perfectly reflect 2%'s classic but playful personality.
2% has been getting Lena Fuji to model for them for quite a while now (I think the first time I saw her pictures in the store was about 2007 or 2008). Being such a huge fan of her, I wanted a 2% x miffy top of my own! The brand came out with a series of photos of her wearing giant miffy ears, and super adorable short shorts with a giant ball of fluff (resembling a bunny tail) attached to it. Who wouldn't say no to that? Anything that Lena models is sure to be a huge hit, I'm sure. This 2% x miffy collaboration was no exception.
The search for the perfect 2% x miffy item was on. I scoured the racks for something that explicitly showed miffy, but also something that didn't look too much like a normal graphic tee. And voila, this one popped right up once I set my mind on finding the safest choice - black and white… aka MY COMFORT ZONE. This particular piece of cuteness came in the form of a flattering loose-fit shoulder-slit top with a print that was just so me.
So I paired it with a classy pair of gold sequin shorts, one of my favorite purchases from my Kuala Lumpur trip last 2011. Thanks to Bobo for wearing the exact same design during our short (no pun intended) date back then - I was completely sold. She wore it with a sheer black top and a classic black blazer. Nothing like a little sparkle to put a little magic into an outfit, yeah? Paired the shorts with a gold satchel to keep the whole "casual with a glam twist" look on a roll.
My boyfriend and I instantly fell in love with the quality of the sun the time we took these pictures. MAGIC HOUR.
It's been such a refreshing change to have him help me take my outfit photos recently, and to pretty much just have outdoor shots that I honestly prefer more than my normal self-taken studio shots. It feels quite nostalgic since I used to take a lot of outdoor outfit shots when I first started this blog. Wish I could have him around all the time so I can regularly post beautiful quality photos like these on my blog! You might want to visit his personal blog to see more of the stuff he likes, other than me TROLOLOLOLOL
Stay tuned for my next MOFW post tomorrow! Also, advanced happy 20th birthday to my baby brother Calel!

MOFW 2012 Australia Day 2
(Bardot floral gradient top, Romwe jacket and pants, S&H heels, Dazzled Bags satchel) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
When I went to Melbourne, I wanted to go crazy at Bardot. Someone bring it to Manila! All their items scream sass and sophistication.
As soon as I laid my eyes on this gradient top, I knew I had to have it! If my mom wasn't around to stop me, I would've also gotten a jacket and a pair of trousers in the same exact fabric.
Just imagine if I wore these three items all together, lol.
I naturally matched the yellow-green of my top with a bag of a similar shade. I know I'm months late with the neon trend, but I only recently acknowledged its knack for being a bold statement. No need for accessories if you've got something as bright as this. Kept it simple and fuss-free by wearing all the embellishment on my jacket instead of my neck and wrists.
Hope you enjoyed the second day of my blog's mini event. Watch out for my next post tomorrow! :)

MOFW 2012 Australia Day 1
(Aje top, Tracyeinny skirt, Dazzled Bags satchel, CMG wedges) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Welcome to another round of My Own Fashion Week! This time, I'll be having an Australian edition where I incorporate Australian brands and items from my recent Melbourne trip to my daily personal style entries.
It's the first day and I'm cheating already, by posting an old look that I already posted on Lookbook! I know I am partly to blame, since I got quite sickly today and I decided to spend the whole afternoon resting in bed instead of going out for work and errands. No chance to dress up there!
But moving on, this top was recently sent to me by an HK-based store that sells different brands from all over the world. I was torn whether or not to include this look in my November Hong Kong MOFW instead, but I figured Aje deserves an entry and a spotlight of its own.
Aje's collections are totally lust-worthy, and I'm happy to be able to wear and style their The Patchwork Romantic Spring/Summer 2011-2012 Skotolo top in my own way. The oversized, puffy sleeves, with the off shoulder cotton, make for a wonderful, luxurious gypsy look. Think Esmeralda in Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame, minus the sexy, plunging neckline.
And the back of this top! Where do I even start? I never wear anything that's too revealing, but the unique gold, silver and white sequined cross over straps totally won me over. I take interest in the fact that from the front, my outfit looks incredibly girly and dainty, but from the back, the slight skin exposure makes the whole thing look a little bit more playful and less conservative.
Clearly, I am still not over spring in Melbourne with this floral outfit. While the rest of the world is enjoying the autumn foliage and preparing for winter, I am with the Aussies, celebrating spring and summer!

Shiny Silver
(Storets shorts, Topshop top, Dazzled Bags satchel, from New York wedges, from Singapore necklace and bracelet) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Quick post!
I have a slight obsession with anything that is silver nowadays. Luckily, I was able to score this shiny silver glitter top at Topshop Singapore last month, with a really, really good price tag attached to it. It was 70% off, and I was pretty sure my encounter with it was love at first sight.
I didn't care that it was too big for me, because I like wearing loose clothes anyway. I didn't care if it had a few undone stitches at the bottom, because I could always hide them by tucking them in. Sure, it was an impulse purchase, but I find myself wearing it too often nowadays that it makes me so proud of myself for being able to find something so nice at a bargain price!
This was my first coordinate wearing it shortly after I got back to Manila. Now that it's the second half of the year already, with the weather is slowly cooler and the days are getting shorter, I'm back to my "Black, white and gray! All day, everyday!" mode. It's never too early to start building up your Fall/Winter closet, in time for the chilly -ber months.

I'm confused - the copy about this recipe mentions evaporated milk but there is none listed in ingredients in my electronic version of this recipe in myrecipes.com which is where I saved it to.

Creamy Sweet Potato Soup
chocchic Posted: 01/30/14
flowerpot916 Posted: 12/02/13
Yum! I had refrigerated leftover roasted sweet potatoes from Thanksgiving. I chopped them up and added them to the boiling pot of chicken stock and onions. I used my immersion blender to quickly blend the soup. Quick, easy and delicious.
IoneTaylor Posted: 11/29/13
This soup was easy and delicious. The bacon and Parmesan made it feel indulgent, yet the soup itself was light and healthy tasting. I baked the sweet potatoes in a baking pan with water covered with tin foil at 400 degrees for 40 minutes. I pulsed the soup on chop in a mini food processor in six batches after letting it cool for awhile. It turned out perfectly. We served it with the Parmesan toasts featured with it in the magazine, and the crunch of the toasts contrasted nicely with the silkiness of the soup. I'll definitely make it again!
MaryEliz Posted: 11/03/13
Wow! So easy and delicious! We added 2 slices of crumbled bacon to the soup directly and it lent a nice savory contras to the sweet soup.
Vtamom Posted: 12/05/13
It was good but I didn't taste a lot of sweet potato. I used an immersion blender which makes it a lot less messy. Also the photo on here as well as others on Instagram look very orange. Sweet potatoes are not orange so I keep wondering if people are using yams because my soup was blah beige.
erincavallo Posted: 10/21/13
Loved it! I had leftover roasted sweet potatoes and they worked perfectly. The soup had a slight spicy kick from the red pepper flakes and the bacon and Parmesan added great layers of flavor. Will make again!
SarahSz Posted: 11/10/13
Delicious! I used an immersion blender and Lightlife Smart "Bacon" (Veggie Protein Strips).
kasperc2 Posted: 09/08/14
I LOVED this soup!!! Great way to use sweet potatoes, a nice warming fall dish, and quite low calorie. I only made a few alterations. Instead of using olive oil I just used the bacon fat leftover from the crumbled bacon. I also did 3 cups veggie stock 1 cup chicken stock and threw in a few bouillon cubes cause I ran out of stock. And instead of red pepper flakes which I was out of I used same amount of paprika (I HIGHLY suggest using that) gave it such a lovely smokey flavor to it and went super well with the cumin. Other than that all totally the same. So good!! =)
bluang Posted: 12/09/13
Love it! Very creamy and tasty. We used homemade turkey stock left over from Thanksgiving and it was delicious! Surprisingly earthy and savory. Perfect seasonal dish. The parmesan and bacon set it off. Will be making it again
SaraEllen Posted: 11/14/13
This is a great, quick, fall recipe. I liked the one reviewers suggestion to sauté the onions in the grease from the bacon. I'll definitely try that next time. The kick from the red pepper was excellent.
JLBrooks321 Posted: 01/08/14
Something about this just didn't work for me flavor-wise. Maybe I would add garlic or more of the red pepper next time, though I'm pretty sure I will not make this again. I even rechecked the ingredients and amounts to make sure I had done it right. I had, it just wasn't the flavor I was hoping for. I think it was the chicken stock- too much. Anyway, if you have an immersion blender, I would recommend using it on this recipe because I imagine the whole pouring-into-a-blender nonsense would be a bit much.
hmcparlane Posted: 11/05/13
This is a good dish, but to me, I felt like it could use more flavor.
amateurcook Posted: 01/05/14
Wow! the first bite and both of us were hooked. This is so easy and very tasty. I did adjust the recipe to some of the ideas suggested. Added 2 minced garlic cloves and less crushed red pepper as I am sensitive to it. Other than that I followed the recipe but didn't have the bread to try the toasts, that's on the next try. My husband said we could have this every day as far as he was concerned, so it must be a keeper.
ColleenTaylor85 Posted: 11/12/13
I thought this was yummy and easy. This will definitely be one of my go to recipes for soup. I didn't have the bacon, but I bet it tastes even better with it.
Namaste Posted: 11/03/13
Phenomenal soup! I followed the directions exactly -- don't be afraid to microwave the sweet potatoes because they turn out just fine -- and thought it had lots of flavor. I added a little milk to it for my 2 year old because the cayenne was strong, and even he (a picky eater) ate every single bite. Success!
mandofan Posted: 11/13/13
We loved this, though it was bit messier to put together than the Ready In 30 Minutes claim. Part of the issue involves the cooking of the sweet potatoes - I was unable to put two pounds of the things in an 11 x 7 pan and our 11 x 13 wouldn't fit in our tiny microwave, so the potatoes were done in two batches. Also, this does NOT make 6 servings with 1.5 cups as a serving. All told it makes a little over 6 cups. At 1.5 cups, we basically got 4 servings with an extra quarter cup in each bowl, so keep that in mind when making this meal, not just for number of serving sizes, but when planning how much bacon to cook up - honestly, it probably only needs a strip per bowl, which reduces it down to 4 strips total. All that being said this was a cheap and delicious meal, and we'll definitely make it again. I served it with the Parmesan toasts and a tiny side salad with Ken's Light Caesar dressing.
mreardon3712 Posted: 12/02/13
This was so easy! I used an immersion blender, which made it easier when combining potatoes and onion saute mixture. The red pepper adds a nice kick and makes you want to go back for seconds. This will definitely be on my list to make again.
MAndino Posted: 03/27/14
This has become a favorite and staple in the past few months....love the spice from the red pepper and cumin. The bacon makes it perfect. Easy to make and I have soup for lunch all week.
lisa6226 Posted: 11/16/13
Loved this soup soo easy to make. I roasted the sweet potatoes since I was already roasting acorn squash. i didn't have chicken stock,but I had homemade turkey stock so i used that. I thought it was perfect. I was looking for something new for a Thanksgiving soup . i found it :)
roxdorman Posted: 10/29/13
Just made this soup with my homegrown sweet potatoes and it is absolutely awesome! I only had 2 cups chicken stock, so I used 2 cups chicken broth to make 4 cups. I used 2 large sweet potatoes and they cooked perfectly in 15 mins. then I peeled them and the peelings came off very easy. I made the stock mixture in a Dutch oven and cut the cooked sweet potatoes up and put all the potato in the dutch oven with the stock mixture. Then I carefully used an immersion blender, way easier. Perfect thick consistency, and just the right amount of pepper for me, not too hot.This is a five star for sure for easy and good!

This was super easy and pretty tasty. It also reminds me how much I love my immersion blender. I did add some half and half (fat free works, but I didn't have any on hand) at the end and just warmed it for a few minutes before serving. Other reviews seem to indicate there is a missing ingredient - the "creamy" part - so I just improvised. I also added 2 cloves of minced garlic in with the onion.
addinia Posted: 11/09/13
So easy and so good. I love spicy heat and this soup has a nice little kick. However, it is not so hot that I would be afraid to feed it to others who have less of a tolerance for heat.
Jostina Posted: 11/24/13
Yummmm!!! Easy and quick to make and sooooo delicious! My hubby had 2 bowls......
matthews51603 Posted: 10/25/13
Excellent. It made a very thick potato soup. I doubled to red pepper - I always do that though because we like heat. It certainly had a kick to it. I also fried the bacon in the pot and used bacon fat instead of olive oil. Will make again!
Tealwins Posted: 11/10/13
I love this recipe. To sum it up, it reminds me of Thanksgiving in one spoonful.
LDombeck Posted: 11/19/13
This was a big hit in my family! One boy hates potatoes in any way shape or form and liked this. The other boy hates "soup" and he ate this w/o as many complaints as usual. I used 1/8 tsp crushed red pepper for the boys. I also used turkey bacon. It was a nice flavor boost. I also used an immersion blender over the traditional - saves tons of time and clean up -- get one if you don't have one! And the parmesan toasts on the side were very good.
ADKWineGirl Posted: 04/26/14
This is one yummy soup. I have made this for a couple parties at work, and received many compliments. Also, I did modify the recipe by blending in the bacon instead of sprinkling it over the soup. Which gave the soup a nice bold favor.
contentedgirl Posted: 11/06/13
I just made this tonight for dinner & my husband & I both thought it was delicious! I will make it again for sure! The only thing I did differently was to bake my sweet potatoes in the oven ahead of time, not the microwave. I love the taste of an oven-baked sweet potato better than what a microwave would do. In addition, I followed another reviewer's advice & cooked my bacon in my dutch oven first, took it out & used some of the reserved drippings to cook my onions. After that I put in the spices, stock & then my sweet potatoes. I used an emersion blender as one reviewer suggested & blended it in the dutch oven. I wonder why anyone would go to the trouble & extra mess of putting it in a blender when the emersion blender works beautifully. I then added the bacon to the soup instead of as a garnish on top. I felt like it would give more bacon flavor throughout. I served this with my homemade oil & vinegar coleslaw and then the cheese toast that was shown with the recipe. Great meal!
bkbroiler52 Posted: 11/02/13
We made this last weekend. It was fantastic - one of the best soups I've ever eaten.
EICrabb Posted: 11/20/13
Delicious! Just a nice touch of spice. I added a little fat free half and half to make it creamer. Easy recipe!
smithker Posted: 05/01/14
Yummy and easy. I used a little extra red pepper and cumin and an immersion blender. Will definitely make this again!
SoonerSinger Posted: 11/03/13
There is too much liquid in this recipe. I ended up with a thin soup with very little depth of flavor. Spicy up front, sweet at the end. I'm sad I wasted 4 cups of homemade roasted chicken stock on this. We ordered pizza rather than eat it. If I were to try this again, which is doubtful, I would decrease the amount of liquid or up the amount of sweet potato. I'd also finish it with some creme fraiche or sour cream, it needs some acid for balance. Hope y'all have better results!
BZsMom Posted: 12/16/13
So easy and so good!
Lauren68 Posted: 10/30/13
Absolutely terrible, no flavor and it smells weird.
promogal Posted: 10/28/13
Very good, I added just a tad more salt as it was a bit bland--but the toppings gave it flavor & texture. Also, after the broth was hot I added in the sweet potatoes, mixed up/smashed with spoon, and then used an immersion blender--was simpler than using a mixer & less clean up.
tjk224 Posted: 10/24/13
Soup was nice and thick and did have a little kick. I felt it needed at little more salt, but overall very easy and delish recipe.
Sarah0603 Posted: 10/28/13
This was very tasty! I was a bit surprised that the instructions called for you to microwave the sweet potatoes and then scoop them out rather than peel and cube them. I just peeled and cubed them, sautéed the onions and then put everything in with the broth and let it simmer until the potatoes were soft and then used the immersion blender to blend. I also added garlic to the recipe. The family loved it!
breathesy Posted: 10/22/13
This is a good recipe. It can be better in my opinion. I made as written except I used vegetable broth in place of chicken broth. The soup was very watery. I like my soup a bit thicker so I'll add another sweet potato and 1/2 C less broth to start. I served it with homemade garlic toast. Overall I was pleased :)
Ntepsic Posted: 11/06/13
Very easy. I made it for my lunch and just used one large potato and half the broth. Very thick. I used vegetable broth. It could use a little more flavor. Not sure if Parmesan cheese is the right thing to add. Easy for a good healthy lunch.
TKB1974 Posted: 11/07/13
Quick & delicious! Added about 1 tsp of curry powder and a dash of all spice for additional flavor. Mixed in about 1/4 cup of coconut milk for added creaminess- even better reheated for lunch the next day!

This recipe was really easy and delicious. I used ready-made meatballs; and I added twice the amount of beans because we like veggies. I served an Italian tossed salad on the side. This soup will become a fall and winter staple.
Italian Meatball Soup
I like this recipe because it's so versatile. I use whatever frozen or fresh vegetables I have on hand and cook a double batch of the meatballs so I can freeze them for next time. You can even turn this into a stew by adding potatoes.

Even outside the School of Education, many of the students we teach at Hunter are already teachers themselves, or will go on to teach in the near future: as graduate students, as adjuncts, as new professors. How do we teach people to teach? In this presentation, experts from two of the largest departments at Hunter—employing many adjuncts and teaching assistants, and training many future teachers—will share successful methods and strategies for guiding the development of teachers. Trudy Smoke (English) will discuss the training of instructors for the numerous sections of English 120.

- About Ateneum
Osbert's (1857–1939) contemporaries already described his works using musical reference. The blue tones found in his paintings exude quiet piece and his thoughtful figures harmonize with their setting. As Osbert's popularity grew his works appeared frequently in exhibitions and he was awarded several public commissions.
Osbert studied at the École des Beaux- Arts in Paris and in the studios of Henri Lehmann (where he befriended Georges Seurat), Fernand Cormon and Léon Bonnat. Probably encouraged by Bonnat, he was initially inspired by Spanish art, especially the work of Jusepe de Ribera.
He soon abandoned Naturalism and, responding to the influence of Impressionism, lightened his palette. By the end of the 1880s he had met a number of Symbolist painters, including Alexandre Séon and Pierre Puvis de Chavannes. Under Puvis' influence he simplified his approach and began to specialize in poetic landscapes inhabited by classical muses. He experimented with Pointillism, but adopted a narrower range of colours, preferring to paint in cool, muted tones. He exhibited at Sâr Péladan's Salon de la Rose + Croix in Paris from 1892 to 1896. He also received several commissions for mural schemes, including the thermal baths at Vichy in 1902.
