Boy, did we get stuff for Christmas. To thank everybody for all the stuff, I made some postcards. I started by taking pictures of my kids playing with the gifts they got for Christmas. In this case, I took a picture of the kids with the library bags my sister made for them (all those hints finally paid off!)
|Cooperative, as usual
I selected the pictures I wanted and chose "Create collage." Then I added text.
Avery 5292 Shipping Labels . I downloaded the free template from Avery and wrote a thank you message on the the left side, and the address on the right before I printed them off. They stuck right to the back and were ready to send!
I did a separate thank you card for each giver but you could just as easily do one version for everybody.

Several neighborhoods in the Bensville Road area of Waldorf were evacuated for about six hours Thursday after a propane truck overturned.
Elizabeth Campbell, spokeswoman for Charles County Emergency Services, said a call came in just after 9:30 a.m. that a propane truck had overturned on Bensville Road near Carrie Court.
Campbell said the truck, which holds about 2,000 pounds of propane, was on its side and it was leaking.
All valves were closed, and at the time the truck was sealed, Campbell reported, it was 85 percent full.
She said there were no injuries as a result of the accident.
The roadway was closed between Route 228 and Zoll Lane, according to information from the Charles County Sheriff's Office.
The sheriff's office reported that Valley Drive, Sedgeland Court, Carrie Court, Shannon Drive, Poplar Court and Paperbirch Court neighborhoods were evacuated.
Campbell said that due to the nature of the accident, the cleanup took several hours.
Jeff Duer, spokesman for the Waldorf Volunteer Fire Department, said emergency responders moved the truck to an upright position once they determined it was safe to do so. It was then transported from the scene.
By 3:30 p.m., the area was deemed safe and the road was opened after a six-hour closure.
Charles County Public Schools spokeswoman Katie O'Malley-Simpson said the school system held morning prekindergarten children from the affected areas at William A. Diggs Elementary School and did not pick up students from the affected areas for afternoon class.
The school system contacted parents of students who live in the affected areas to let them know their children would not be transported by bus Thursday afternoon. The road closure affected several schools, especially Diggs, Theodore G. Davis Middle School and North Point High School.
Students affected by the closures attending Archbishop Neale School were picked up by parents at regular dismissal time.
O'Malley-Simpson said the closure also caused other buses to be rerouted which caused later drop-off times.
Jerry Ballengee of White Plains witnessed the accident and said once he saw the truck turn over both the fight and flight responses triggered.
Ballengee said he knew that because it was a propane truck that there was a good chance there could have been an immediate explosion. He said he stopped his car and backed out of harm's way as did other cars in the vicinity. He said he backed into a driveway and stuck around to alert other vehicles of the incident and to offer assistance.

View the complete recipe
35 comments:
shef john. can i break my own spigetti? looks very starchy, maybe boil the pasta, drain it, then cut it and add the rest of the ingrediants.
- March 16, 2012 at 8:00 PM
- Chef John said...
No! Don't do it. That defeats the entire purpose of cooking the broth into the pasta! The starchiness is also part of the dish.
- March 16, 2012 at 8:08 PM
- Steven said...
Hey Chef John, this looks good but I was hoping you were going to give us some advice on how to break spaghetti quickly.
- March 16, 2012 at 8:26 PM
- Chef John said...
I'm really hoping they know enough not to snap one piece of spaghetti at a time! ;-)
(btw, if you don't... just grab about 1/4 of the box at a time and snap in half and then half again, and continue as small as possible.
- March 16, 2012 at 8:39 PM
Oh-my-goodness. Chef! I can think of about a million kinds of "stuff" to add to this dish (alone or in combo with each other)
If you know someone in college, tell them to forget the Ramen and use this recipe instead!

- neha said...
Chef John! I would really like to see you make some vegan dishes using seitan or tempeh or tofu. or maybe all!
- March 17, 2012 at 3:27 AM
Hi Chef John,
Could this method be used to cook penne pasta or other pasta shapes?
- March 17, 2012 at 4:40 AM

Hello Chef John,
I just love your pasta recipes, sooo yummy!! am definetly gonna try this broken spaghetti recipe ;) By the way, have you received my food wish concerning " Spaghetti nests"?I've tried to make'em on my own, but didn't work out...was hoping you could show me the trick of how to keep the spaghetti nest all together... Thnx in advance, love u my favorite chef :)

I've been doing this with orzo; it ain't risotto either, but it looks like it! haha! LOVE your videos!!!
- March 17, 2012 at 12:44 PM
this looks real good....it reminds me of rice-a-roni.
- March 17, 2012 at 1:44 PM
This would be a great recipe for using orzo - that little rice-shaped pasta, I'm going to give this a try.
- March 17, 2012 at 1:45 PM
What a GREAT idea for pasta! I'm so gonna try this very soon. Thank you for this method.
- March 17, 2012 at 3:03 PM
- Jeff said...
That spoon is too big! Where's the freakishly little one?? Oh, the "risotto" looks great btw.
- March 17, 2012 at 3:20 PM
- XTeenuh said...
This looks a bit like Rice A Roni, except it looks totally delicious as well. Looking forward to trying this, as the main of a meal with some additions. So interesting!
- March 17, 2012 at 5:36 PM
This reminds me of fried bee hoon. Except this dish is probably way more healthier!
- March 18, 2012 at 9:05 AM
- Martin said...
This was great side dish.
I couldn't believe how fast this was to do from start to finish, and how many options this opens up for ingredients you can add to this.

Chef John, What name brand of salt do you use? It is very beautiful.

Wow this is really good Chef John. I was feeling hungry and so many recipes called for ingredients i don't have! So happy to find your recipe for Risotto Pasta. I had everything on hand and boy did it come out amazing! Deceptively simple, amazingly delicious. :)
- March 18, 2012 at 7:22 PM
It's probably a stupid question, but do I need to multiply the amount of stock by the the number of spaghetti cups I'm preparing?
As you've said, it's a small dish and it would take quite an amount of stock to make it bigger.

Hey Chef John, I'm trying to become a firefighter and as a part of that job, at times I'm responsible for cooking dinner. Now, I'm new to cooking so I was just wondering, if I were to use this as a main dish (along side with some chicken) how would I increase the measurements for about 6 to 7 people.
This meal looks easy enough to make, but I just need help with adjusting to the portions of each ingredient.
Thanks for the help!
- March 19, 2012 at 1:11 PM
- Chef John said...
Just multiple everything by 4! Remember, the broth amount may vary, go by feel like I say in the video.
- March 19, 2012 at 1:18 PM
- 1Bigg_ER said...
Great side dish! served it with cornell chicken.
I cooked 2 cups of pasta and used a little over 3 cups of broth.
Used chipotle pepper instead of the red crushed peppers. Damn good!!!
- March 19, 2012 at 9:24 PM
Made this to go with steak tonight - followed the recipe exactly. It was amazing and my husband told me to "bookmark that recipe so you can make it again!". He NEVER does that.
- March 22, 2012 at 10:10 PM
- Chef John said...
Happy to help!
- March 22, 2012 at 11:11 PM
If I were to add some shrimp, chicken, or veggies to this to make it a main dish, when would I add it so it would go well with the pasta?
- March 24, 2012 at 5:36 AM
- Chef John said...
can't answer! depends on the meat, the size pieces, etc.
- March 24, 2012 at 2:47 PM
What about diced ham?
- April 9, 2012 at 5:28 PM
- Chef John said...
Ham is cooked! Throw in any time!
- April 9, 2012 at 5:43 PM
- Viacheslav Bogomazov said...
Made it 20 minutes ago. Add some chicken and more cheese. It was delicious! I did some photos of this risotto: http://bogomazon.blogspot.com/2012/04/blog-post_14.html
- April 14, 2012 at 1:43 PM
I just made this recipe right now, and goodness, Chef John, I can't emphasize enough how great your recipes are! I'm in love with this recipe, as well as the garlic bread roll and many others. Thank you!
- April 24, 2012 at 3:23 PM
What a wonderful idea. I just happened to have about 1/4 of a box of cut spaghetti in my pantry that I didn't know what to do with and it equaled out to be exactly 1 cup! To make it a meal, I added frozen peas and a can of clams, using the clam juice as my broth. Fabulous!
- August 29, 2012 at 11:24 AM
- K.Johnson said...
Roll the spaghetti tightly in a dish towel and firmly press against the counter edge every couple of inches to break. Fairly even pieces and nothing flies away. Can do up to two pounds of pasta at one time.
Very helpful blog, I would love to see other kid friendly ideas.
I would also like info. on your cookbook.

Hi Chef John!
Can I use beef stock instead of chicken stock?
- April 16, 2013 at 12:47 PM
- Chef John said...
of course, it's your dinner! :)

Question lightning rod for a home
Copper would be my choice from what i see on old barns around here. My dads barn has copper and a twisted copper wire about 1/8" x 1" coming to the ground. I see signs around here http://www.drboom.com don't know whats there but i see lots of signs...BobBob Wright, Grandson of Tee Nee Boat Trailer Founder

Spool Gun conversion. How To Do It. Below.
I would put a copper one foot high rod at the talest point on your structure, and run twisted stranded wire ( about the size of a pencil to handle the current) down to the closest point that I could find to the ground. The most important part is that YOU MUST have a good ground rod connected at the ground point. You want the lightning Arc to go to ground as fast as possible, and be dissapated all into that ground rod. I suspect that if you google lightning rods you will get some expert advice. To me, the most important part is the ground rod being well connected to the earth, other wise you are just attracting the lightning to your structure that you are trying to protect..
JimJim Young
this is one project that i myself would not even try,,, and im a complete nut.
i once talked to an electrician about doing this type of thing myself,,, he laughed,, i believe that this is even separate from normal electricians know how, and is a highly specialized installation/certification/materials. after all,,, it involves god knows how much power,, coupled with the unpredictably of lightning.Anything you could do, I could do better.
I can do anything better than you!

Do a Google search for "Lightning Arresting Equipment". There are many sources for information, parts, and prices, but this is a very specialized field and it isn't a good idea to do it yourself.

it's just for my own education of how no intentions of use just wondering how they are made and materials used.
You want sweeping turns of the wire not sharp 90'bends. you also want a large dia of wire running from the spear to the ground rod's that are in the earth.
And don't forget the glass indicator ball, so you know if you took a hit. The ball shatters, show you know when it gone you been struck.
Here are two that you will find use full

Jim Beauregard's Tasting Notes: Gluten-intolerant? Brewers hear you
We begin today with your small intestine ... and what can go wrong with it.
Celiac disease, the Mayo Clinic says, is "a digestive condition triggered by consumption of the protein gluten, which is primarily found in bread, pasta, cookies, pizza crust and many other foods containing wheat, barley or rye.
"People with celiac disease who eat foods containing gluten experience an immune reaction in their small intestines, causing damage to the inner surface of the small intestine and an inability to absorb certain nutrients. Celiac disease can cause abdominal pain and diarrhea.
"Eventually, the decreased absorption of nutrients (malabsorption) that occurs with celiac disease can cause vitamin deficiencies that deprive your brain, peripheral nervous system, bones, liver and other organs of vital nourishment."
The cause is not well understood, but is known to sometimes run in families, and there is, at present, no cure for it. Celiac disease, which also goes by the names celiac sprue, nontropical sprue and gluten-sensitive enteropathy, is basically an immune system reaction to gluten; it can be well-managed with diet changes, avoiding foods that contain gluten.
This brings me to the topic of today's column: Gluten-free beer. It's in the Oxford Companion to Beer, right between glucose (as a building block of starch) and glycogen (a carbohydrate). We are seeing a steadily increasing supply of gluten-free beers coming on the market in New Hampshire for those who would like a beer, but can't drink it the standard ones because of the presence of gluten, which occurs in the most common beer ingredients, barley and wheat, as well as some types of rye.
To make a gluten-free beer then, one has to go to plants that don't contain it, and these include so-called "grist materials" from malted sorghum, buckwheat and common millet.
These are all known, in beer lingo, as "adjuncts," that is, something used to replace some or all of the malt used in making a beer.
How are they? Let's take a look at a few I found at Bert's Better Beers in Hooksett:
Redbridge Gluten-Free Sorghum Beer, Anheuser-Busch, $1.75. The ingredients are water, fermented sorghum, sorghum, corn syrup, hops and yeast. No alcohol content listed on the bottle. Average size white head, frothy in character, diminishing, with low malt, medium hops and aromas of citrus, lemon, and general hoppy notes. Dry palate, medium to low bitterness, medium acidity, low carbonation, well-integrated alcohol, a little on the thin side for texture (think light beer), medium flavor intensity of hops and fruit.
Bard's Sorghum Malt Beer, "Gluten Free" $1.95. "Contains no wheat, barley or oats," the label says. Average size white head, gold beer, low malt nose, and low hops, citrus and herbal notes. Dry on the palate, medium bitterness, petillant carbonation, well-integrated components, medium texture, hops on the palate.
Daura Estrella "Gluten Free" Lager, Spain. $2.35. 5.4 % abv. Yellow beer, low malt, low hops, citrus mostly, skunky at first, but that clears quickly with a little air, citrus on the palate that's dry, low acidity, medium to low alcohol that's well-integrated, light body, hops and fruit on a medium length finish.
So, we are of on the gluten-free quest. We'll continue next week with a few more.
Changing the subject to wine: Züm Riesling, Mosel, Germany $12.99. The Mosel is known for the more delicate and light Rieslings that grow on the river's steep hillsides. This one is clear in the glass, pale lemon-gold, with a clean nose of fruit and a little development.
Off-dry on the palate, weighing in in Spätlese or Auslese range, with medium alcohol (10%), medium body, medium-plus flavor intensity and flavors of green apple that really comes through on the palate, lemon-citrus and some slight melon hints.
Fruit-forward, good concentration. Drink now. 85 points.

Comments On Apr 07, 2015:I spent hours trying to get my IRC heavy duty tube into my Kenda Trackmaster II tire. I just could not get the valve stem lined up with the hole.
Then I remembered I had this tool (didn't have to use it for front tire), and I figured out HOW to use it. You may need to thread it through one side of the wheel while you're working the inner tube into the other side.
At any rate, I pulled the valve core and connected this baby, and was able to pull the valve stem through the rim hole and it saved my ass.
TL;DR - If you use a heavy duty inner tube and a tire with a stiff carcass, this thing is worth its weight in gold!

This is a really good write up once again by Jason Wilde, so do please click his name to read his other articles.
I think the longer this goes on, the more of a black mark it puts on both the Packers and Brett Favre. Each comment I see, each article I read and everything else pertaining to it ... I just can't help feel ... get over it already, both the Packers and Brett Favre.
We as fans gave tons to Brett Favre and in turn Brett Favre gave us tons too. It is time to move forward!
Jason Wilde
GREEN BAY – Bob Harlan thought he had the perfect opportunity for prodigal son Brett Favre to begin reconnecting with the Green Bay Packers organization he came to embody during his 16 years as the team's star player.
But much to the retired Packers president's disappointment, he does not expect the iconic quarterback to return to Green Bay for former head coach Mike Holmgren's induction into the Packers Hall of Fame on July 21.
Speaking on Green & Gold Today Tuesday morning, Harlan said he suggested to the Hall of Fame that Favre be among the invitees for Holmgren's induction dinner, which will be held at the Lambeau Field atrium on that Saturday night. Holmgren, who coached the 1996 team – led by Favre – to the Super Bowl XXXI title, is the lone inductee this year.
But Harlan said the Hall of Fame reached out to Favre's agent, James "Bus" Cook, and does not expect Favre to attend. Favre, who was traded to the New York Jets in 2008 following his unretirement and then spent the 2009 and 2010 seasons with the rival Minnesota Vikings, did not play in the NFL last season.
"We had a meeting about two months ago and talked about who should be invited back – Jon Gruden, Andy Reid, people like that," Harlan said, referring to two Holmgren assistants who went on to be successful head coaches themselves. "And, we talked about players. And I said to the group, 'What about No. 4? This would be the perfect time for him to come back, come into Green Bay.'
"The crowd at the Hall of Fame banquet is an adoring crowd, they're as loyal to the Green Bay Packers as anybody.' And unfortunately, I don't think he's going to do it. We did approach his agent, and I don't think Brett's going to do it. I feel badly about that."
Harlan said as he understood it, the Packers Hall of Fame, which is run independently of the Packers organization, reached out to Cook without consulting with coach Mike McCarthy or general manager Ted Thompson first.
"What we tried to do, the people at the Packers Hall of Fame worked through his agent, and the last I heard, the agent had not gotten back to them. I don't even know if Bus knew what we were calling about," Harlan said. "They did make that phone call to him. In my mind, there would not have been a better place for him to make his return to Green Bay.
"(McCarthy and Thompson) don't really have anything to do with that. That strictly came from the committee that runs the banquet."
Favre attended the July 2008 Hall of Fame banquet, serving as presenter for his longtime center and friend, Frank Winters. Favre, who had criticized the organization and Thompson a few days earlier in an interview on FOX News, did not speak about the situation he and the Packers were in at the time.
Harlan said he believes Favre will return to the fold eventually, but that hard feelings remain. Harlan also said it's important that Favre and the Packers reconcile before Favre is enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio. The five-year clock starts from a player's final game, meaning Favre would he Hall eligible for the 2016 class.
"He's got to come back someday and have his number retired. He's going to go into the Packers Hall of Fame; I think he should go into the Packers Hall of Fame before he goes into Canton," Harlan said.
"I met with he and (his wife) Deanna the day they announced their retirement (in March 2008), and you could tell it was a very, very difficult day for him. I know he broke down and cried at his press conference, but in a short meeting I had with him before that conference – and basically all I wanted to do was thank him for all he did for this community and this organization – he was extremely tense and seemed very tired. And I thought Deanna, his wife, seemed the same way. And I think it was, he just could not face the reality that this was coming to an end. I felt badly about that since that day.
"I just have great respect for him, and somehow, some way, he's got to come back here."

If I'm reading the details from the excerpt here correct, the "invite"/"reach out" went like this:
1. Harlan said to someone from the Hall of Fame committee, "why don't you invite #4?"
2. Some guy from the committee (maybe the same guy, maybe not) contacts someone at Bus Cook's office (not Bus Cook).
3. Cook (and Favre) haven't responded.
4. No one talked to either McCarthy or Thompson.
Thompson/McCarthy <--> Harlan <-->PHOF committee member(s) <--> Cook employee <--> Cook <--> Favre
Forgive me, but this doesn't sound like a whole lot of "reaching out."
This is a long way from "Nixon goes to China", or even "Kissinger goes to China". It's more like "Harvard classmate of Kissinger" calls Mao's assistant's assistant secretary inquiring about whether Mao wants to come to the Harvard Political Science Department's Alumni Brunch.
(Not saying anything wrong with what Harlan's doing -- it's good to see. But it sounds to me like there is still a long ways to go before "reconciliation" and long diplomatic handshakes between Favre and the Packers.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Here's the comments I posted on the PFT article...
Packers call the agent, whom does not return a call and it's assume Brett will not attend? Great, put more words in Brett's mouth, that won't tick him off more.
Whatever. We as fans have given tons to Brett Favre and in turn Brett Favre gave us tons too. It's time for the fans, the Packers and Brett Favre to move the deuce on!
Brett proved he still had it.
Packers proved they had the real deal with Aaron Rodgers.
Everyone was friggin right!!
Brett Favre didn't say he wasn't coming, nor said he wouldn't come for a reason.
Who is going to spend money to boo Brett Favre? I can assure you, not any Green Bay Packers fan. And you can thank the 2010 Super Bowl winning season for that.
Packers fans got "revenge" (for lack of better word) when the Packers beat the Favre led Vikings, twice en route to a Super Bowl victory.
I fear at a Packers GAME, he may be booed, but I really feel most Packers fans have buried the hatchet.
The bitterness is between Brett and the Packers. And like I said, each proved they were right, so it really is time to move the frick on!
As a devoted Packers fan myself, its getting embarrassing with each day another article sprouts outlining that the Packers and Brett are not on good terms. Both have done so much for one another … just make up and guess what … the Packers can profit from Brett, and Brett can profit from the Packers. Use one another!

I understand Brett Favre perhaps declining due to not wanting to overshadow the actual event. However, it's not hard to ignore comments and it's not hard for the Packers Hall to make it clear any question about the "divorce" will elicit immediate boot out of the door.
The point I'm making here is ... Mike Holmgren is only going to be inducted into the Packers Hall of Fame one time and Brett Favre is a huge reason why. They both benefited greatly from one another. Thus, measures need to be taken to ensure they can both have each others company at a special occasion as this.
I suspect ...
Holmgren would want Favre there.
Favre would want to be there for Holmgren.
We are talking about grown men here right? You're telling me it's better to run an hide instead of face it and handle it accordingly?

Test ID: ABID2
Antibody Identification, Erythrocytes
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Assessing positive pretransfusion antibody screens, transfusion reactions, hemolytic disease of the newborn, and autoimmune hemolytic anemias
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
After exposure to foreign red blood cells via transfusion or pregnancy, some people form antibodies which are capable of the destruction of transfused red cells or of fetal red cells in utero. It is important to identify the antibody specificity in order to assess the antibody's capability of causing clinical harm and, if necessary, to avoid the antigen on transfused red blood cells.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
If positive, antibodies will be identified and corresponding special red cell antigen typing on patient's red blood cells will be performed. A consultation service is offered, at no charge, regarding the clinical relevance of red cell antibodies.
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
Specificity of alloantibodies will be stated.
The patient's red blood cells will be typed for absence of the corresponding antigen(s) or as an aid to identification in complex cases.
A consultation service is offered, at no charge, regarding the clinical relevance of red cell antibodies.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Recent administration of Rh-immune globulin may cause anti-D to be identified and appear falsely as an alloantibody
Not useful for monitoring the efficacy of Rh-immune globulin administration
Not useful for identifying antibodies detected only at 4 degrees C or only after extended room temperature incubation
Clinical Reference Provides recommendations for further in-depth reading of a clinical nature

Accusations that the health care reform bill now pending in the House of Representatives would use "death panels" to deny care to sick seniors and children with birth defects have taken center stage in the health care debate, giving the Obama administration even more of an uphill climb in getting the measures enacted into law.
But health care experts – even those who do not support the version of the health care reform bill now being discussed – note that these accusations are shocking, inflammatory and incorrect.
At issue is a 10-page section of a 1,000-page House health care reform bill on "advanced care planning consultations." These consultations would reimburse a doctor for talking with a patient once every five years about what kind of care they want near the end of life.
The provisions spurred conservatives, including former New York Lt. Governor Betsy McCaughey, a Republican and now a conservative commentator, to charge that these consultations would ration health care for elderly and "tell them [seniors] how to end their life sooner, how to decline nutrition, how to decline being hydrated, how to go into hospice care."
That led to shouts of "This is euthanasia!" from angry citizens at health care town halls all across the nation hosted by members of the House or Representatives. One person said, "Adolf Hitler called his program the 'Final Solution.' What will we call ours?"
In fact, doctors and supporters say, the intent of the measure is not for doctors to tell patients what to do, but to give doctors more incentives to talk to patients about all of their options.
The provision cited by McCaughey requires only that Medicare cover end-of-life consultations for patients who want it. It does not force clinicians to provide them or patients to undergo them, doctors say.
"Advance care planning has nothing to do with 'rationing care,' and calling it 'death panels' is derogatory and preposterous," said Dr. Marcin Chwistek, an attending physician in oncology with the pain and palliative care program at Fox Chase Cancer Center in Philadelphia. "I sincerely hope that such consultations will initiate what has been long due in the American health care system -- a thoughtful care that results from careful discussions and planning between patients and their doctors, as opposed to a care that is chaotic, based on assumptions, and frequently in conflict with patients' deep held values."
Currently, Medicare doesn't pay for consultations focusing on end-of-life care. Under the bill, Medicare beneficiaries would have them covered every five years, or more frequently if the individual's clinical condition deteriorates.
In addition to the coverage expansion, the bill also calls on the Medicare system to adopt quality standards for end-of-life care.
The AARP defended the legislation too. In a statement, the powerful seniors' lobbying group said McCaughey's charges were "rife with gross -- and even cruel – distortions... McCaughey's criticism misinterprets legislation that would actually help empower individuals and doctors to make their own choices on end-of-life care."
"Right now it seems there is an intentional effort to distort what's in the legislation and that's confusing the public debate," AARP executive vice president of policy John Rother said.

Kate Upton couldn't make it to the prom with Jake Davidson... (Getty Images)
...so her fellow Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue model Nina Agdal stepped in. (Getty Images)
Jake Davidson is one lucky fella.
The crafty Los Angeles teenager who unsuccessfully attempted to land Kate Upton as a prom date will be able to slip a corsage onto another gorgeous model's wrist. The high schooler's date on Thursday night will be Danish beauty Nina Agdal, a rep for Elite Model Management confirms to omg!.
Jake Davidson
"I picked out my dress and now I'm ready for prom," she told the show while modeling a light-colored, low-back gown.
[Related: Is Kate Upton the Hottest Supermodel on Earth?]
While Agdal is not currently gracing the cover of Vogue like "Hottest Supermodel on Earth" Upton, she certainly has an impressive, um, body of work. She made her big debut in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue in 2012, earning the title "Rookie of the Year." Following in the footsteps of Upton herself, Agdal appeared in a Carl's Jr. ad that ran during the 2013 Super Bowl. And her steamy photo spread in the May issue of Esquire has been getting a lot of buzz … and clicks.
Agdal stepped in as Davidson's date after his clever attempt to woo Upton felt apart. In March, he became an Internet star when a video he made called "Kate Upton, Will You Go To Prom With Me?" went viral with nearly 2.6 million views. While Upton reached out to Davidson on Twitter and told him she'd check her schedule, the blonde bombshell was ultimately booked on his milestone night.
[Related: Where Have the Swimsuits Gone in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue?]
But Davidson will turn out to be a winner in the end with Agdal by his side. And while he's suddenly gone radio silent on Twitter leading up to the bash (he's likely primping!), we expect him to make a homemade video highlighting their big night ― and perhaps pursue a career in showbiz.

University Lecturers Series
Call for Proposals and Application for 2015-2016
The Faculty Senate's University Lecturers Committee acts as a steward for a Student Services Fee fund that assists colleges, schools, departments and campus organizations in sponsoring outstanding speakers at Texas State University. Limited funds are available and are awarded on a competitive basis to members of the Texas State community who want to sponsor a guest lecturer or a mini-symposium in the following Fall or Spring semester (funding is not available for Summer sessions).
Prior to submitting a proposal, please contact the speaker or speaker's agent to determine availability and fees. The committee will review the proposals and assign a score to each one based on the speaker's ability to:
A call for proposals will be issued by the Faculty Senate in November to alert faculty and university organizations to the mid-January proposal due date for lectures to be offered the following academic year. Notification of funding awards will typically sent in late March.
The committee will approve as many speakers as the budget allows, starting with the top-ranked speaker and progressing through the ranked list. In order to support as many proposals as possible, each award is limited to no more than $3,000. Please note that the committee looks favorably on proposals that reflect joint sponsorship (collaboration across university areas) and on proposals that reflect shared funding (commitment for funds from other sources). Funds should be utilized only for speaker fees, and if needed, travel and accommodations. Receptions, incidentals, and other costs will not be funded Proposals in which the prestige of the speaker is documented, the plan for the event (including marketing) is specified, and the budget is justified (in terms of reaching the broadest audience possible for the funds requested) are preferable. Please note that all funded applicants are required to provide a brief follow-up report to the committee within one month after the event.

Main Nibbles / Chocolate
Gourmet Chocolate House Tour
A Guide To The World's Great Chocolate Houses
On our first tour, in 2005, we visited these great chocolate producers (in alphabetical order):
In 2006, our tour took us to Bonnat* (France) Dagoba*† (U.S.), Guittard* (U.S.),
Nacional Cacao • Cherry Fruit • Marshmallow • Kosher
Historic Capsule
Santander, the name of the company, is actually the name of a region in Colombia where the cacao is grown. The chocolate is manufactured by Compañía Nacional de Chocolates, founded in 1920. For more than 50 years Santander has been promoting ethical cultivation practices that are now very current, including the use of organic fertilizers, species preservation and soil protection through forest conservation. The company also works directly with cacao growers to maintain an equitable and fair trade foundation that benefits the growers, company, and consumers. Santander upholds social responsibilities as well, such as sponsoring educational programs for community children. A long list of its community and social activities can be found on its website, in addition to wonderful pictures and delicious chocolate.
What To Know Before You Go
Since Santander's chocolate is entirely made from Nacional cacao, anticipate an exceptional chocolaty impact in varying degrees, depending upon percentage. A common theme tying all the bars together is a characteristic cherry cordial and marshmallow flavor. Definitely "red fruit" in overall character, Colombian cacao's natural flavor is wonderfully and uniquely highlighted in this line due to Santander's exclusive use and intimate knowledge of the beans.
Points of Interest: All Single Origin Colombian Cacao
The bars Santander offers come in varying guises. To taste the cacao in all its purist form, try the unflavored bars. The 70% Cacao bar is the strongest offering. Bitter but refreshingly so, this bar is never off-putting and even has a cheerful persona due to the cherry cordial flavor. Next is the 65% bar, which is characterized by tropical fruits and a softer red flavor. Moving down the line to less intense cacao, the 53% bar is the mildest of the dark bars but still just as impressive, conjuring up flavors of marshmallows melting in a steaming cup of hot cocoa. And for milk chocolate lovers, the 36% Cacao bar, although a bit sweet, is also quite chocolaty and surprisingly complex.
Flavored bars are available in four varieties, all in a 70% base. Coffee lovers take notice, as two bars are flavored with Colombian-grown coffee, one with coffee bits for added texture and bursts of coffee flavor and another with coffee flavor infused into the chocolate. Fruit fans can rejoice as well: passionfruit bits add zest and pep to one bar, while pineapple bits in another bar are milder and more complacent.

70% Cacao. This bar really exemplifies the heart of Santander, and Colombian cacao in general. Very archetypical for the bean, it's both strong and flavorful and just an all-around excellent chocolate.
Pure Origin • Dark Roast • Pure Taste
Historic Capsule
Opening its doors in 1872 as Chocolates Arumi in the Barcelona-area city of Vic, Chocovic changed its name in 1977, when Netherlands purchased the company. From that point, Chocovic's emphasis became focused on supplying the pastry industry with top-notch chocolate. In 1995, Chocovic started Au la Chocovic, the first school in Spain to specialize in chocolate and teach courses in chocolate, food technology and baking essentials. The company's emphasis continues to be to supply the pastry industry with top-notch chocolate rather than to focus on the consumer.¹ Their product line is the base for many fine chocolatier and pastry collections throughout Europe and the United States. Still, they produce excellent bars for consumers to enjoy.
¹With the exception of Pierre Marcolini, the smallest of the great houses, all of the companies profiled produce couverture for professional patissiers and chocolatiers. Thus, in addition to producing bars and bonbons under their own brand names, they sell 2-kilo blocks of chocolate that get turned into bars, bonbons and other chocolate products by other chocolate companies large and small, which sell them under their own brand names. Some chocolatiers will have the house make special blends for them, but the majority use the basic house couverture. As a student of chocolate, you can learn to recognize which couverture your favorite chocolatier uses. Our own top three favorite chocolate boutiques use El Rey, Valrhona, and Domori, for example. Do ask your favorite chocolatiers what brand of couverture they use: it's not a trade secret (although their precise blends may be); and they will be impressed by the depth of your knowledge and your interest in the craft.
What To Know Before You Go
Like Domori, Chocovic excludes both lecithin and vanilla from the chocolate, which allows the taster to experience the true essence of the bean. Slightly bitter, smooth in the mouth, these bars are a fine attempt to highlight the beans' inherent natural flavor profile. The overall flavor is neither sharp nor burnt, indicating that roasting time may be on the darker side.
Points of Interest
For consumers, Chocovic has created an Origen Unico (Unique Origin) line of three bars. The company produces several other chocolates in couverture format (two-kilo blocks) for professional use. [Note that while couverture chocolate has added cocoa butter to create a creamier and shinier product that enables fine, detailed chocolate molding and artistic work, it is not only edible by itself, but exquisite to those who like a creamier style.]

Guyave, a personal favorite of the author. With unripe banana, pineapple, and mango flavors, it's a choco-tropical must-try.
El Rey
Old-Style • Authentic • 100% Venezuelan
Historic Capsule
Established in 1929, El Rey's head office and production sites are located in Venezuela: It is the first modern chocolate plant in a Latin American country. El Rey combines Old World cacao tradition with New World technology to produce some unique chocolate. The company's mission is to deliver 100% pure Venezuelan bean flavor without blending. In 1994, El Rey introduced its Carenero Superior line, chocolate bars of varying cocoa contents that are made entirely from the Carenero Superior Criollo bean.
Points of Interest
El Rey's Carenero Superior line was launched in 1994. Each bar is made exclusively from one type of bean: the highly acclaimed Carenero Superior. Carenero grows in the fertile and humid region of Barlovento, just northeast of Caracas. The well-fermented and better quality beans get deemed "superior"—hence the Carenero Superior designation. The beans are prized for yielding a complexity of spicy and fruity flavors and aromas.

Icoa: simply the best white chocolate in the world. Because El Rey does not deodorize its cocoa butter (a chemical process in production meant to rid undesirable odors, but which also strips flavor in the process), this is the one white chocolate that still possesses its natural chocolate flavors, and not just dairy tones.
