In recognition of the 40th anniversary of Earth Day, here are two artists whose projects offer an intriguing comment on very different aspects of a world in peril. The works of Agnes Deses and Cornelia Hesse-Honegger, whether calls to action or sober documentation of the realities faced by the modern world, are unflinching in their honesty, and seek to infuse art with activism.

L.A.-based Kim and Alice Talon released their first full-length album Thracian on iTunes April 9. Drawing comparisons to Sleater-Kinney and Mission of Burma, Eagle and Talon can be found all over the internets and in publications like Bust. Though their roots are very DIY (they found each other through Craigslist), Eagle and Talon are about to make it into the living rooms of tweens and teens (and okay, probably some 20-somethings and other adults, too) all over America with a performance on tonight's episode of 90210.

Nassir Abdulaziz Al-Nasser, current president of the U.N. General Assembly, reported today that more than 8,000 people have been killed in the year-long Syrian uprising. Al-Nasser also noted that human rights violations are "widespread and systematic" within the country, and called on the international community to take action. Opposition groups have put the death toll above 9,000. A separate report from the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees says that 230,000 Syrians have been displaced by the fighting, including 30,000 who have fled to other countries. The High Commissioner's coordinator for Syria, Panos Moumtzis, estimated that hundreds of Syrians cross the border every day.

-first deer-
I'm lying in bed, rehearsing what I'm going to tell him if he tries to call her when he gets back in the states. shes next to me, drifting off peacefully, the baby kicking me in the back while she tells me how happy she is.
you make me so happy, baby..everything is so wonderful now. i cant wait to have our baby, garrett; im so happy happy happy happy
if you ever call this number again you fucking cock-fuck, i'll cut your throat and fuck the slit you spineless faggot fucking pig i swear to fucking god you will regret the day god got drunk and fucked up and let you ever even think of inhaling oxygen or taking a piss out of your incredibly worthless shriveled microscopic excuse for a penis that still somehow made him
in bible study today, the teacher talked about praying for people that we didnt like. i should have paid attention. first time Ive thought about him in a very long time, though. hes not worth the energy it requires to cross the synapses that bring him back to the front of my mind. have had nothing but deer on the brain lately. finally paid off.
it was dusk; the sky was creamy and pink, and the seemingly arctic wind was gently nibbling on my earlobes. i was very frustrated; had been out five times in the past two days and had seen nothing but fresh tracks. always a few minutes late. you have to wander up and down the power line to get to the stands. the stands lay in the midst of natural, man made hallways of pine. forests that had lanes pre-planned-about 15 feet wide and at least one hundred yards long. the stands allowed you to have several of these lanes in your purview…..absolutely brilliant. almost impossible not to make that perfect shot——as long as there was something to shoot at, something i had yet to encounter. hunting deer is exactly like fishing; theres just no fishing pole, no fish, and no boat.
it was now the best time for deer, but i couldnt sit in the goddam stand any longer. it didnt seem right. it seemed more honorable to happen across them; stalk them, maybe. but whats the difference from sitting in a comfy, wind-blocked shelter and being happened upon by them? i think it boils down to an issue of boredom. i get bored of sitting in a stand and waiting for a deer so i can shoot it, but on the on the same token, deer get sick of standing in a field and waiting for a human so they can be shot.
i put my vest on, pulled my wool cap down, and climbed down the ladder. it was starting to get dark in the lanes anyway; might see some fresh tracks in the mud on the power line so i can curse myself for not staying in the stand. rifle sort of at the ready, me kind of paying attention, i made it out of the green tunnel, half ass scanning the distance. out of the corner of my left eye, i see several white specks speeding away; brought back to the situation, my rifle comes up and military training takes over; safety thumbed off. that particular group of deer was gone, but i saw a pretty sizeable doe, just standing there, looking at me. even in the scope she was fucking small.i tucked the butt of the rifle into my shoulder as tight as i could; hadnt shot a weapon in almost a year, and here i am like an idiot trying to make a three hundred yard shot in the twilight. sighted in, my breathing steady. i thought Id be incredibly excited about this and would be unable to actually calm down enough to make any kind of shot, but something took over me, and i slowly exhaled quickly and squeezed off. explosion; more white specks running. i dont think i hit it, didnt see anything on the ground through the scope, but i had to make sure that i DIDNT hit it. had to schwak through some mud, around a pine thicket, and once i made it around the thicket, i saw another doe, staring at me; this time from only about seventy five yards. a much easier shot. sighted in, squeezed off. explosion. she rocked. stumbled. bad shot. i got closer. no. no. no. no. no. no. no. god fuck me. it was the deer i shot at the first time. i gut shot her once, shot her a second time five minutes later, and she STILL wasnt dead. hot rage began slowly seeping into my bloodstream, making my insides pulsate and throb. my rage turned to soft, runny shit as three fawns came out of the woods towards their mother, totally oblivious to me. they stood there, not afraid of me in the least as i approached, sliding the bolt back and chambering another round. ten feet away. she went down on her knees and exhaled, the hole in her belly expelling red steam and whistling like a train engine on its last leg. i was waiting for her to say something. i apologized for not killing her and injuring her and causing her undue suffering. i apologized for making her listen to her belly squeal. i apologized to her for the creation of man and for those men who first sought out animals. the fawns looked at me with their dumb faces..got to stop personifying. men have done this for a thousand million years. i wasnt shooting for sport. this was for meat. i felt absolutely no pride, however as i pumped a final round into the deers neck. one of the fawns made some sort of horrid squelching cry and they ran off. she rolled over and jerked one last time, her milk moistened nipples staring at me in the moonlight.
it would have been different if i had killed her quick. but my first fucking deer, and i gut shot her. oh well. probably good for me to witness the death close at hand.
cleaning her sealed the deal, though. kitchen brain took over. here we are. meat. must butcher. must get as much as we can to maintain a low food cost. these are muscles. this is silverskin. im just not in a kitchen. steam rose off of the deer while we gutted it. organs and undigested food and shit and blood covered my hands and instantly became hard in the harsh, seething wind. i thought this might not be so easy to stomach. it was fine. i was raised to think deer were cute and made to be looked at and that people that hunted them were horrible people and might even go to hell or something. in my childhood, someone fucked up and forgot to tell me that some people kill not for office decor, but for meat. we eat deer here several times a week. deer season is for stocking up the freezer. once i grasped this, i was anxious to hoist a rifle and add to the foodstuffs. my father in law told me that i could process the deers meat into whatever I wanted. Jerky, roast, grilling deer, burgers; whatever. but, it was made damn fucking clear that i was to get every usable piece of meat off of this creature that suffered and died so that we could eat. i did not feel celebratory. i was not saddened. it was just what needed to be done.

I initially found this place by chance, what an oasis. went to Lake Placid this past weekend,with two other couples, as usual , Aggie and Luke made all of us feel right at home, she helped make our weekend a great success. Thanks so much, Anne and Jim

Aggie & Luke were very accommodating hosts. We spent 3 nights at the Winterberry and will certainly be going back. It's only a mile from Main St. and if it's too cold, there is a free shuttle. Clean rooms, yummy breakfast, wonderful hostess.

Stayed at Winterberry this past Veteran's Day weekend. We stayed in the Tiffany room, and enjoyed every minute of our stay. Aggie could not have been more welcoming, and she was very knowledgeable about the area. The room was standard size, but extremely clean and a great value at Winterberry's low rate. The B and B has wi-fi, which isn't advertised on this site, but was a great perk. No complaints about the stay whatsoever, we will be back for sure!

My husband and I stayed last weekend for one night. It was just as promised. Aggie, a kind and unobtrusive host, who greeted us and was pleasant but not over bearing. Breakfast was lovely and plentiful. The room was basic but adequate for our needs. An excellent value. We would stay again

We stayed two nights at Winterberry and had a lovely time. It's quaint, beautifully decorated and clean. We stayed in the Adirondack and it was charming -- the bed was extra long, which was a pleasant surprise for my husband who is 6' 7" tall. Aggie was a wonderful hostess, and we give the Winterberry a high rating! Will stay again if we're ever in Lake Placid.

A really nice B&B, great value for the money, near downtown Lake Placid. Breakfast was an unexpected bonus...good home-cooked food....not the standard "continental" breakfast usually experienced at lower cost places. Rooms have everything you need and are nicely appointed with period furniture. Lovely living room for TV viewing or joining other guests. Definately would stay here again when visiting Lake Placid.

If you are looking for privacy with a welcoming feel you can't beat Winterberry. The hostess Aggie is a sweetheart, also an excellent cook. We are already planning our next visit.
4.2 on July 19, 2010
We stayed in the Adirondack room and the 4 vine covered plantation shuttered windows met in the corner creating a delicious cross breeze and wonderful ambiance. Aggie is a very pleasant, but unobtrusive hostess. The guests have their own living room with a fireplace, games and movies which was great in the evening. Breakfast is great. We enjoyed our stay very much and would easily consider returning should we again visit Lake Placid.

We had the pleasure of staying with Aggie for two nights recently. In my humble opinion, this is certainly one of the nicest and most reasonably priced accomodations in the area. While being very convenient, it is located on a quiet side street off a main road. The minute we met Aggie, we felt at home. Our room was large as was the private bath and was much more than I expected given the more than reasonable rate. The sitting room was extremely comfortable and we enjoyed a fire in the fireplace one chilly afternoon. We were not prepared for the cool weather and Aggie let us borrow two sweatshirts - now how nice is that. Now the breakfast - first off, Aggie sets a beautiful table. We enjoyed conversation with other guests as Aggie treated us to wonderful coffee (the best coffee we had on our 12 day trip), juice, fruit, a different tasty breakfast bread each day, and a wonderful breakfast entree complete with sausage. Aggie doesn't skimp on portions. Over our two days at the Winterberry, I shared nice conversation with Aggie who seems to take much pleasure and joy in meeting new guests. Would we stay here again - absolutely. Don't be put off by her low rates - it really is a very nice place to stay. Dolores Fennell

We recently spent two nights with Aggie in Lake Placid, she is a great inn keeper and had good suggestions on what to do during our stay. Her family room is very comfortable and we felt right at home, our room was clean and comfortable and breakfasts tasty. Her B&B is very affordable and a good value.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand--New Zealand is going ahead with plans to auction off radio spectrum ear-marked for fourth generation mobile networks despite indigenous Maori tribes continuing to assert their ownership of the radio waves.
Amy Adams, government minister responsible for technology, said Wednesday that an auction was scheduled to start on Oct. 29. A reserve price of 22 million New Zealand dollars (US$17 million) will be set for each of the nine lots of spectrum up for auction.
"In setting the reserve price, we have balanced generating a fair return on the sale of the spectrum rights with the significant investment required by mobile network operators to build the 4G network infrastructure," Ms. Adams said.
The auction has been marred in controversy.
According to Maori, the government doesn't have the authority to auction off spectrum because Britain guaranteed the rights of unspecified national resources to New Zealand's first people in a landmark 173-year-old treaty, the Treaty of Waitangi. Maori say that makes the spectrum their rightful property, even though the pact predates the invention of the radio by several decades.
The case is currently before the Waitangi Tribunal, a commission that deals with grievances raised by the indigenous Maori population, and although no decision has been made or any time frame given for the case to be heard, the government has opted to proceed with the auction. Ms. Adams has previously said she didn't believe Maori had rights to the spectrum under the treaty.
The auction has been keenly anticipated by the market, with only limited 4G services currently available. Major players Vodafone New Zealand, a subsidiary of U.K.-based Vodafone Group. (VOD.LN), and Telecom New Zealand Ltd. (TEL.NZ)--both of which do offer 4G services already--have confirmed they will participate in the auction. The auction is expected to provide sufficient spectrum so that at least 90% of New Zealanders will have access to the network and faster broadband within five years.
Successful bidders will have five years in which to pay for their spectrum under a plan to encourage new and non-cellular operators to participate in the auction. However, bidders who acquire three or more lots must build at least five new cell sites a year over a five-year period, a government release says.
Due to New Zealand's hilly terrain and small, scattered population there are areas in the country that don't have access to a cellular phone service or anything but dial-up internet. The government has committed to improving this, launching a rural broadband initiative during its previous term.

New Balance REVlite 890 Shoe Review
I recently had a chance to run in the New Balance REVlite 890's. Right when I picked up the shoe I noticed that New Balance was on to something. The 890 is incredibly light, but it doesn't sacrifice it's structure and support to get there. I like that you get to enjoy the weight of a minimalist shoe but still are able to utilize the plush cushioning of the midsole.
Another rad feature is just the fact that the men's and women's shoe is a namesake shoe. The names Andy Baddeley and Jenny Barringer (now Simpson) are stitched into the heel wrap of each respective shoe. I've been following both there careers, especially Jenny's, for some time now and I love the fact that they are endorsed my these great runners. One of my favorite races of all time was seeing Jenny go sub-4 in the 1500 in Eugene, OR at Hayward field in her last year as a Colorado Buffalo. That was her first big moment when people were like, "Hold up, this girl is gooood. Nike better get on that." But somehow New Balance picked her up and this shoe is evidence that they are investing a lot in her and her future.
In addition to the super light material of the midsole, it also sports a 23 to 11 cm drop. This is just enough to cushion your heel but still remain close enough to the ground to feel that natural roll of your foot as you strike and roll to push off.
The upper is manufactured with no-sew seamless welding which provides a comfortable, non abrasive experience for the foot inside this shoe. The weave of the upper is breathable and made with wicking materials to decrease moisture build up for improved comfort.
I'm falling in love with shoes that are considered to have 'full ground contact geometry.' This basically means that the outsole is not separated from the heel to the forefoot with a plastic plate or other divisive material. With the REVlite 890 you are in constant contact with the ground for better grip and a more natural ride.
This neutral light weight trainer can truly be used for your day to day runs. This shoe can handle anything from a long 20 miler to a 5 mile tempo run. The cushioning can handle the long stuff and the weight is great for when you want to feel fast and snappy! The only segment that may want to steer clear of this shoe is heavy over-pronators and larger folks. It doesn't quite have the lateral support to protect this segment.
First the Minimus line now the REVlite 890, it seems New Balance running is really starting to take off. During my years working in a running shoe store, New Balance was always popular with older folks who had been wearing New Balance for decades. Yet they hadn't quite figured out how to compete with the big boys like Asics, Brooks, and Nike with the running market core. After picking up some great athletes in Anton Krupicka, 'Jenny B' as I like to call her, and Andy Baddeley, and then re-vamping their entire ideology and design/management team; New Balance is now a major force to be reckoned with.
Final note: New Balance is the only major running shoe brand to be manufactured in the USA, 25% of the shoes sold in North America are made in the USA. Maybe it's just me, but in these economic times, I want to support brands that provide jobs domestically, and I like the ongoing commitment of New Balance to do just that.
The New Balance REVlite 890 retails for $90 at Amazon.com
as well as other vendors.

Ive had my 890′s now for 6 months. I was a big fan of the old 890 and decided to chase the new model down after struggling to find another good neutral shoe. After my old 890 new balance I ran in an adidas neutral which was great but like all the brands once you find a good shoe buy good stocks of them as once they change to a new series, when they supposed to get better that isnt always the case!
Ever since buying my 890s I havent been too overjoyed. Yes they are light but I feel the EVA makeup is too light to be a true runner, unless of course you are have the perfect light stride! After many years of running and now reduced to no more than 2 x10-12km a week I find these shoes way too soft for that distance and weekly mileage. I think these shoes are great if you are a triathlete or a weekend racer, they are not described as a race shoe but I feel they are very close to this. I checked the my soles to the other day and the area under my fore foot is already almost worn away! I thought this yellow material they are using underfoot is so strong and durable??!! Also the white EVA is already quite compressed. Overall I have to say nice looking, with the weight perfect for light runs or weekend races but not so for runs over 10km. I think I will need to chase down my next neutral. All said I love NEW BALANCE as a shoe but this new light series to compete with NIKE new flashy series does not have real running capability and I have to say I wish I had bought more of the older 890′s!!

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - Metro Council Democrats are poised to approve a $10.10 an hour minimum wage across Louisville, as long as Kentucky's attorney general gives his blessing.
Some of the caucus's 17 members said they would like to move forward immediately. But it's better to wait for Attorney General Jack Conway to decide whether Metro Council has the legal authority to control the local minimum wage, Councilwoman Attica Scott said.
"I believe all 17 members of the Democratic caucus are behind the minimum wage increase," Scott said.
Scott provided WAVE 3 News with draft legislation that would raise the minimum wage by $2.85 over the next two years, similar to proposals that Republicans have stopped in Congress and the Kentucky General Assembly.
Greater Louisville Inc. officials hadn't seen the draft, but a spokeswoman said the business organization would oppose increasing the local wage beyond the federal level, which is $7.25 an hour.
Doing so would put local employers at a "competitive disadvantage," said Susan Overton, the spokeswoman.
Under the proposal, which Scott said she planned to introduce, the wage would increase in steps, to $8.10 this month, $9.15 in July 2015, and $10.10 a year later.
About 61,000 people in Kentucky's Third Congressional District, which includes the majority of Jefferson County, would be impacted by the increase, Scott said.
The draft legislation exempts tipped employees from the mandate, but would require all other workers in Jefferson County to receive the higher minimum wage. Employers who fail to pay the proper wage would be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor, according to the proposal.
Republicans said they had several concerns about how the legislation would impact businesses and the purchasing power of lower-income workers who make slightly more than $10.10.
"What about the individual who is a single parent, raising kids (and making) $11 an hour," said Ken Fleming, a Republican. "That's something that we really have to flesh out."
Fleming pointed to a new law in Seattle, which raises that city's minimum wage to $15 an hour but gives many small businesses up to seven years to comply. Exemptions for certain businesses should be a part of the discussion in Louisville, Fleming said.
Mayor Greg Fischer last week said he would support a gradual increase in the minimum wage, but drew controversy when he said the issue hadn't been a big topic in Louisville.
"Where's he been? We have been discussing this," Fleming said.
Fischer stands by the comment but is aware that some in the community are talking about the issue, said Chris Poynter, a spokesman for Fischer.
Metro Council last month approved legislation that mandates a $10.10 minimum wage for Metro government employees. But only about five employees were affected by the change, Poynter has said.

An interesting part of EDM culture that's exploded in the social media sphere is the concept of "previewing" songs. Artists will share snippets, often no longer than a minute or two, of their next single in advance of its release. I know for us, it just adds to the suspense and anticipation, especially when you get you hands (and ears) on bits and pieces of tracks like these below. Looks like our musical appetites will be satisfied quite nicely in December.
Also below is the latest Sounds of Now podcast from hot and rising Swedish DJ Mikael Weermets, featuring a slew of awesome bootlegs and massive tunes. Definitely give it a listen, and let's get this week started right.
One love,

- 1 chicken, 3 1/2 to 4 lb., cut into 8 pieces
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- Salt and pepper
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- Small pinch saffron threads, crumbled and dissolved in broth, optional
- 10 to 12 dried apricots, halved or quartered if large
- 1 cup pitted green olives, halved
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 1/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, optional
- 1. Rinse chicken with cool water and pat dry. Combine flour, 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper in a shallow bowl. Dredge chicken in seasoned flour, shaking off excess.
- 2. Melt butter with oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When foam subsides, cook chicken, turning often, until golden brown, about 10 minutes (work in batches if necessary). Transfer to a slow cooker. Pour off all but 1 Tbsp. of fat from skillet.
- 3. Add onion to skillet and cook, stirring often, until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. (If pan begins to scorch, add some of the broth and continue stirring.) Add garlic; sauté 1 minute longer. Stir in paprika, cumin and cinnamon and stir until fragrant, about 15 seconds (mixture will be dry). Pour in broth, increase heat to high and bring to a boil, stirring to pick up any browned bits. Boil until liquid is reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Pour mixture over chicken in slow cooker.
- 4. Cover and cook on high for 2 1/2 to 3 hours or on low for 5 to 6 hours. About 1 hour before chicken is done, scatter apricots and olives over chicken and sprinkle with lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.
- 5. Transfer chicken to a serving platter and spoon pan juices with apricots and olives over and around chicken. Sprinkle with almonds. Garnish with parsley, if desired, and serve.

ERIN (WKRN) - The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation arrested a Houston County woman over the weekend for attempting to hire a hitman to kill her husband of 12 years.According to the TBI, Imajean Lowery, 70, of Erin, met with an undercover agent and offered him $5,000 to murder her spouse and provided the agent with a picture of him.She was arrested and charged with one count of solicitation to commit first degree murder."She was attempting to put feelers into the community to hire a hitman to kill her husband," TBI spokesperson Kristin Helm told WKRN-TV.Helm said the elderly woman made the arrangements with a TBI agent on her front porch. Lowery told the agent she was the beneficiary of her husband's life insurance policy and was desperate for the money. "I think she had such a clear motivating factor of wanting that money, being desperate [for the] money. [The agent] even gave her the opportunity to call it off to not do it and she insisted she wanted to have this done," Helm said. Neighbors said the woman was facing financial difficulties since her grandson was arrested for several arsons in the county. Lowery was booked into the Houston County jail on a $200,000 bond.

This studio-museum in the building is equipped with Molnar-C Paul created over 50 years until 1931-1981. Three years after his death his daughter, Dr. Csillag Pálné Eva directed to the Ménesi steet house as a museum, where a permanent exhibition of the artist's paintings, everyday objects are on display. The villa is surrounded by green gardens to maintain an excellent venue for chamber concerts, so was born the idea that each year the Budapest Strings perform chamber concerts there, traditionally the International Haydn Festival's program which is selected based on adjusting the size of the venue.

Pasta with Grilled Sausage & Veggies
I love summer for all of the yummy garden vegetable. There are so many ways to cook them & I love discovering new ways to serve them. Grilling the vegetables & Italian sausage & adding them to pasta is an amazing way to serve them. This dish was a hit.
Italian Sausage (hot or mild)
1 green bell pepper, seeded & halved
1 red bell pepper, seeded & halved
1 yellow squash, halved
1 zucchini, halved
1/4 c balsamic or Italian dressing
Salt & Pepper
Parmesan cheese
Light grill. Place vegetables in a large bowl & pour dressing over. Baste until all the pieces are covered. Let the vegetables sit. Cook Italian sausage on the grill for 8 minutes, turn frequently. Add the vegetables, turn frequently. Baste the vegetables with the dressing while they cook. Continue to cook sausage & vegetables until cooked through (15-20 minutes). Remove from grill. Allow to rest. In a large pot cook spaghetti until al dente. Drain, reserving about 1 cup of the pasta water. Chop sausage & vegetables. Add into the spaghetti. Toss with 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil & enough of the reserved pasta water to moisten. Sprinkle with salt, pepper & parmesan cheese.

Sorry ...
I apologize for not being a good recipe blogger. Life just gets in the way sometimes. I am still here cooking & baking. I am still making new things. I somehow just run out of time to post these new things. I hope it will get better, but I am not making promises. What I would like to do is dig back into some older recipes & share them again. I do that a lot when I am cooking. I look on my own blog & find something really delicious that I forgot about. Anyway, have a happy summer & enjoy some time outdoors (grilling of course).

Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
I made these cookies for the first time as part of my Christmas baking. These are absolutely the best cookies ever. Seriously, these are officially my favorite cookie.
1 c all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
1 stick (½ cup) unsalted butter, at room temperature
½ c creamy peanut butter
½ c granulated sugar
1/3 c light brown sugar
½ tsp vanilla extract
1 egg
½ c rolled oats
1 c semisweet chocolate chips
1 tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
1 stick (½ cup) unsalted butter, at room temperature
½ c creamy peanut butter
½ c granulated sugar
1/3 c light brown sugar
½ tsp vanilla extract
1 egg
½ c rolled oats
1 c semisweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside. Whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside. On medium speed, cream together the butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract, about 3 minutes. Add the egg and beat to combine. On low speed, gradually add the flour until just combined. Stir in the oats, and then the chocolate chips. Using a tablespoon drop a walnut size dough ball onto prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. (Note: the original recipe suggested a 3 tbsp. sized dough ball but I didn't want monster cookies). Before placing in the oven slightly smash the dough down so it is not in a ball shape. Bake for 6-8 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden. Cool completely on the baking sheet and then store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Dorito Chicken Casserole
This casserole was yummy & so easy. The entire family loved it.
2 c shredded cooked chicken
2 c shredded Mexican cheese blend, divided
10 oz can cream of chicken soup
1/2 c milk
1/2 c sour cream
1 can Ro-tel tomatoes, drained (I use my immersion blender so the kids don't see chunks of tomatoes)
1/2 packet taco seasoning or use my recipe for taco seasoning (click for recipe)
1 large bag Doritos, crushed
Shredded lettuce
Diced tomatoes
In a large bowl mix together shredded chicken, 1 cup of cheese, cream of chicken soup, milk, sour cream, Ro-Tel tomatoes & taco seasoning. Mix well. Grease a 2-quart casserole dish & add a layer of crushed Doritos across the bottom. Top with a layer of the chicken mixture. Add another layer of crushed Doritos. Then add another layer of the chicken mixture. Top with remaining cheese & more crushed Doritos. Cover & bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until bubbling hot. Remove from oven. Top with lettuce & tomatoes if desired.

Cilantro Thai Chicken
You must try this chicken - it was amazing. I love when a few ingredients give a BIG taste.
2 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
1/2 c chopped cilantro
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Place the first 4 ingredients in a food processor. Process until smooth. Pour marinade over chicken breasts & refrigerate for a minimum of 15 minutes (I let mine marinate for over an hour). Grill chicken until juices run clear.

Apricot Pork Medallions
I am so sorry that I forgot to take a picture of this. I love to cook pork tenderloin. It's such a versatile, tender meat. When I saw this recipe with apricot preserves, I knew I had to make it. I served this with steamed brown rice. The sauce tastes yummy when poured over the rice.
1 lb pork tenderloin, cut into 8 slices
1 tbsp. plus 1 tsp butter, divided
3/4 c apricot preserves
1/8 c sliced green onions
2 tbsp. cider vinegar
1/4 tsp ground mustard
Pound pork slices to 1/2-inch thickness. In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp. butter over medium heat. Brown pork on both sides. Remove pork from pan, reserving drippings. Add preserves, green onions, vinegar, mustard & remaining butter to drippings. Bring just to a boil, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Reduce heat; simmer covered, 3-4 minutes. Return pork to pan. Cook until pork is tender. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Turkey Hummus Wraps
I love a healthy, delicious wrap sandwich. These are great for lunch or a quick, no cook dinner. You can use any flavor of wrap that you would like. I love the spinach ones. This is versatile for kids & adults. You can cater to each person's taste. Enjoy!
Sandwich wraps (I used spinach - there are many options at your local store)
Turkey breast
Hummus (use mayo if you don't like hummus)
Shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
Salt & pepper
Spread hummus all over wrap. Add turkey breast, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, salt & pepper. Fold two sides in & then roll up. Stick toothpicks on each side then cut wrap sandwich in half.

Zenith Global Logistics will expand its fleet as the company continues to benefit from a growing demand for home furnishings in the U.S.
Modern Logistics S.A. has secured funding that will help the Brazilian logistics services provider launch operations within two months, offering regional warehousing and air and ground distribution.

Shippers need to think about end-to-end power costs, not just fuel prices, when designing supply chains, speakers at the CSCMP meeting said. Those costs, they warn, could become more volatile.
Large forwarders are less inclined to accept loss leading business and will turn down contracts rather than supply transport services at below break-even levels, according to logistics companies with strong Asia Pacific business.
Ryder System is expanding its inland distribution network in Mexico, starting with a transloading center for Chrysler at the Gulf Coast Port of Altamira.
BDP International (India) and its long-time local partner Unique Global Logistics have approved a merger agreement between the two parties, allowing the Philadelphia-based logistics group to consolidate its operations in the country.
On an improved macroeconomic backdrop, U.S. retail holiday sales growth this year is expected to top that of last year, putting increased pressure on logistics and parcel delivery companies.

Pre-race routine:
woke up early and set up transition.
Event warmup:
did about a 2 mile easy run, and swam about 300 yards easy
Had a good swim. Knocked 2 minutes off last years time. Got out good, but after the first bouy I kinda got pushed out a little bit. Everything else was good.
What would you do differently?:
Don't get pushed out
Transition 1
good transition
What would you do differently?:
Had a really bike until mile 50. Was in the back of the pro mens pack who started 10 mins ahead of me. Was on track for about a 2:40 bike split. At the beginning of Nasty Grade me legs were just kinda out of it and lost a lot of time riding up that and the final 6 miles. Knocked 17 minutes off last years time.
What would you do differently?:
Just train more on the bike so I can get my legs used to going hard for that long.
Transition 2
good transition but a bunch of spectators somehow got into T2 and were standing right infroent of my rack.
What would you do differently?:
Started off the run with bad legs, couldnt settle into a good pace and couldnt get a good rhythm. Then at mile 7 I felt good and ran the last 6 miles in about 42 minutes. Knocked 6 minutes off last years time.
What would you do differently?:
Do more brick sessions, and more run training.
Post race
Warm down:
sat in the medical tent and ate pretzles.
What limited your ability to perform faster:
just not training for long course races, mostly just short fast paced ITU races.
Event comments:
Really good race. Terry Davis is a really good race director. Knocked over 24 minutes off last years time, won the 17-19 age group by 53 minutes as a 16 year old, and was 9 minutes off the course record set in 2000 by a 19 year old. I'll do a 4:45 next year.

Biographical Sketches
Harding was born in 1865 on a farm at Corsica (Blooming Grove Township), a rural town in north-central Ohio, the region that was to be his home until he entered national politics. Five years later, the family moved to Caledonia. There, Warren's father, who had been a teacher as well as a farmer, practiced homeopathic medicine. The youth, who was the eldest of eight children, attended public schools. His employment included work as a printer's devil for the Argus.
Harding won his B.S. degree from Ohio Central College at Iberia (1879-82). During these years, besides holding temporary jobs, he edited the school newspaper and yearbook, played in the band, and participated in debates. In 1882 his parents moved to Marion, where he soon joined them. He taught one term at a rural school, briefly studied law, sold insurance, and then went to work as a reporter and general assistant at the weekly Democratic Mirror. In 1884 he and two partners purchased for $300 the Star, a four-page weekly that was close to bankruptcy. Inside of 2 years, Harding bought out his associates.
At first, Harding participated in all phases of newspaper production. But, as his paper turned into a daily and circulation grew along with the town, he became a prosperous publisher and influential civic leader. He held directorships in a bank, lumber company, and telephone exchange; served as trustee of a Baptist church; and figured prominently in local charities and fraternal organizations.
In 1891 Harding married Florence Kling DeWolfe, the divorced daughter of a local banker. They moved into a home they had constructed the year before in anticipation of their marriage, which proved to be childless. About this time, Harding became seriously interested in politics and joined the Republican Party. In 1892 the voters rejected him as county auditor, but 3 years later awarded him the office. He next sat in the State senate (1899-1903), where he became floor leader, and then held the position of Lieutenant Governor (1904-6).
For the next 4 years, Harding concentrated mainly on his newspaper business. In 1910, by a wide margin, he lost a bid for the governorship. Two years later, he presented the nominating speech for President Taft at the Republican national convention. Harding next served in the U.S. Senate (1915-21). In 1916 he chaired the Republican convention and delivered the keynote address.
When the 1920 convention deadlocked, party leaders picked Harding, who was backed by Ohio politician-lobbyist Harry M. Daugherty, as the compromise Presidential nominee. Conducting essentially a "front-porch" campaign, he offered voters a soothing formula for a return to "normalcy" and the restoration of peace and prosperity from the tumult of World War I and the 1920 economic panic. Democrat James M. Cox crusaded for U.S. participation in the League of Nations, but Harding's vague pronouncements on the subject could appeal to both its supporters and enemies. He and running mate Calvin Coolidge won more than 60 percent of the popular vote.
Many administration programs were directed by Republican congressional spokesmen and such able Cabinet members as Secretaries of State, Commerce, and Treasury, Charles Evans Hughes, Herbert C. Hoover, and Andrew W. Mellon. Unfortunately, some of Harding's Cabinet appointees and other officials proved to be corrupt. He signed measures that ended wartime economic controls; cut taxes, particularly for corporations; created the Bureau of the Budget and Veterans' Bureau; reimposed protective tariffs; and strictly limited immigration.
In international affairs, Harding and Secretary of State Hughes viewed his election as a mandate against membership in the League of Nations or European collective security arrangements. Yet, in response to a Senate resolution urging an international disarmament meeting, Harding convened the Washington (D.C.) Conference (1921-22). Five of the major powers in attendancethe United States, Great Britain, Japan, Italy, and Franceset a ratio of capital warships, restricted their tonnage and armament, and limited the use of submarines. Other agreements reached among representatives of the various Nations present outlawed gas warfare, affirmed territorial claims in the Pacific, and guaranteed the "Open Door" policy in China and her territorial integrity and independence.
By 1923, though many people praised Harding for these diplomatic achievements and for reviving prosperity, his administration faced mounting difficulties. Democratic gains in the 1922 midterm elections and Republican party schism cost him effective control of the Congress. Worse, insistent rumors that high officeholders were using their positions for personal enrichment began to spread. These complaints eventually centered on graft in the Veterans' Bureau and in the Office of Alien Property Custodian; and Interior Secretary Albert B. Fall's leasing of naval oil reserves at Teapot Dome, Wyo., and Elk Hills, Calif., to private interests.
Harding apparently felt responsible for the wrongdoings of his appointees, but he died before the full extent of the scandals became public knowledge. During a tour of the West in 1923, he received information detailing the magnitude of the corruption. But he became ill in Alaska and passed away at San Francisco on the return trip. Later, several key administration figures were fined, imprisoned, or forced to resign.

I went grocery shopping this morning, this was literally all that I bought. I've never felt so happy about what is in my fridge before in my life. Everything is so colorful, and I'm so excited to eat it and feel amazing.Wednesday Mar 23 @ 08:00pm
After about an hour of contemplating, I've convinced myself to try a diet. I've never dieted before (I believe eating healthy and properly isn't a diet), so this might be a little challenging, but the diet I found seems simple, and effective - hopefully.
I'm going to try the General Motors diet. The calories aren't restricted, which is a good thing, and I enjoy all the foods you are allowed to eat, which is another good thing. I'm excited, and I can't wait to see if this works. (:Wednesday Mar 23 @ 02:47am

Made this for 4th of July party at our home and it was a big hit. Not only was it pretty to look at, but it tasted delicious, AND it was relatively easy to prepare - no double boiler needed for the custard, etc. The crust, while easy using a prepared Pillsbury-like dough, was rather week to support all the filling. Next time I'll try a shortbread based crust.

So incredibly easy and good!
Knicki99 Posted: 07/10/13
I made this recipe with a homemade crust, substituted almond extract for the vanilla and used skim milk instead of whole milk. The pastry cream did not set up firmly, so I will make it with whole milk the next time. It could also have been the high humidity. One container of each of the berries was plenty to cover the surface. I did not make or use the glaze. It was enjoyed by all.

Nature's first green is gold
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
I'm 22.
I don't have a theme blog, I have a ME blog.
This is the space I use to rant about my health issues, my life, my problems, etc. I also use it to brag about the good things that happen to or around me.
I'm on a mission for positivity and happiness. I don't like being negative and when I am I don't stay that way for long.
I'm strange and complex. <-- I like that.
I'm stubborn, quiet and rather cold. <-- Working on that though.
Most of all though, I'm me. Quirks and all.

Happy (almost) Halloween, guys!
Here's some good new for you if you don't get Canvas' newsletter: "Drawcast Sundays: Canvas is hosting Drawcast every other Sunday at 3PM Eastern. Caldy will be drawing pictures in front of a live-stream audience via his UStream channel, then uploading them to Canvas. Join us in the Drawcast group to remix ALL the things!" So! If you've missed the Drawcasts, here is your chance to re-live the magic. (Also, if you happen to capture any good moments when watching them, feel free to submit them!)
Sorry that things have been so slow the last few months, I'll make more of an effort to update this more. What would you most like to see: art, screen-caps, pictures from articles, tweets, anything else?Source:
