WordPress Development Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for WordPress developers and administrators. It's 100% free, no registration required.
There is a ticket related to this issue. The short answer is there isn't a good fix. The core creates description fields that cannot hold more than 255 characters. Sorry :(
I actually found the answer to my own question.
If you're using the "Link Library" Plugin, you can use the field "Link Large Description" instead of "Description" and it gives you much more space to work with for describing your links. I don't know what the maximum is for this field.

2007 and beyond!

Zodiac Sign:
Place of birth:
Knoxville TN
Currently living in:
Atlanta GA
Favorite MEINL cymbal:
Drumming since:
1996 I think..I'd always play my friends drums and then i finally got my own kit about a year later
Car that you currently drive:
It's funny you aksed, short story..When i joined this band i drove up from Atlanta to New York in my black 99 civic SI with about 1500 $ audio system recently installed. 3 days after being ther, it got stolen.
Not counting on drums what do you do for fun:
I'm from the south, which means I like to drink beer and go fishing. All of which is true. I play video games quite a bit too.
Favorite Food:
Cluck-U chicken, They have the best fried chicken I've ever had
Favorite Drink:
Water and beer, straight up!
Self taught with a few teachers along the way
Highlight of your career so far:
I've already done so much in this band. I'd have to say playing on Jimmy Kimmel or playing at the 2007 VMA's
Drumming strengths:
Dynamics and creativity
Drumming means to me:
I'm really not sure whre I would be if I didn't have drums in my live. I'd probably be playing baseball in college or something, which isn't bad, but I wouldn't give up drums for anything
Advice for up and coming drummers:
I think the most important thing is to never give up. You can always be better. Also, hitting hard all the time isn't exactly the best thing to do. Dynamics is very important, knowing how and when to play at different volumes.
How would you describe yourself:
I would have to say.."I'am the guy who is pretty much down for anything, very outgoing, always trying to have a good time. If you come to one of our shows, come find me, we'll hang out.
When I look back on my life one day, I would like to be able to say:

Carlisle council vow to keep High Street alive
Last updated at 16:47, Friday, 27 January 2012
Carlisle City Council says it will do everything it can to keep shopping on the high street alive.
Since the start of the year, Past Times retro gift shop on English Street and Hawkins Bazaar have closed. The Yoko Fish Spa in The Lanes has also now closed, leaving another empty unit to fill.
This week, Jaeger announced it will close its Carlisle shop in June and, a day later, fashion retailer Benetton, at Greenmarket, revealed it was closing too.
Collapsed retailer Peacocks, which has a shop in The Lanes, is moving in on new ownership after administrators KPMG said they were "swamped with interest" in all or part of the business.
Underwear store La Senza was saved after being taken over by the Alshaya Group.
The city council says it will look at incentives such as developing proposals for a Business Improvement District (BID) and reducing or freezing car parking charges.
To establish a BID, businesses would have to pay higher rates.
It can only be set up if the majority of the businesses affected support the idea in a referendum.
The scheme would create a not-for-profit company to market the city centre, run events and, the council says, "improve the trading environment".
The council is consulting businesses this month and next on the benefits of a BID, with a view to publishing a draft business plan in March.
Marilyn Bowman, portfolio holder for economic development, said: "I am very supportive of all businesses and particularly the small, niche ones.
"It is sad to hear of more retailers closing. We want to do everything we can in this city to keep shops open.
"The problems stem from the global economic situation – it's affecting the big names.
"Current initiatives include closer working with the private sector to develop proposals for a city centre BID.
"This is designed to foster a stronger and more formal relationship between the city council and business owners, resulting in better marketing of the city centre, continuation of a strong events programme, and ensuring a safe, accessible and welcoming city centre that people come to by choice."
Carlisle MP John Stevenson said the city must not become "unduly pessimistic" after the shop closures.
He said: "While we have seen some shops close, others have opened, like Hotter Shoes, White Stuff and the new Bocata deli at the corner of the Lowther Arcade and Lowther Street.
"This is a sign that these companies do see Carlisle as a place to do business.
"We are in difficult economic times and it's hard for some retailers. But there are opportunities.
"I think the area around the Old Town Hall, which is home to Jaeger and Benetton, has an opportunity to develop its night time economy.
"The city council's idea for a BID is exactly the right thing to do. Carlisle needs to encourage more tourism.
"Ultimately this is not just a local issue, it's a national one. What we must do is get confidence back."
The city's current growth area centred around Carlisle Arcade, including Warwick Road, Lowther Street and Devonshire Street.
The Arcade had a £50,000 makeover, which included repainting and cleaning the roof glazing.
Stephen Sewell, a director of managing agent Walton Goodland, which looks after the Arcade, said: "This part of the city centre has picked up. It's more affordable than English Street and Scotch Street, where rents are higher."
Out-of-town shopping is also on the up. Toys 'R' Us announced it was staying in the city after opening a temporary Christmas pop-up shop. Next Home is pushing ahead with its plans for an out-of-town store at Kingstown and Wynsors World of Shoes will bring 15 jobs to the city when it opens in Shaddongate in March.
The UK has been warned it is now officially at risk of going into a double-dip recession.
The latest figures on the economy show a slight contraction in output, raising the nation's fears of a second economic downturn.

Have your say
Listen guys, ive read your letters, can anyone else have a say in this debate.every town in the uk has empty shops.so stop calling carlisle.
Dave Evans, What a pathetic comparison that is.1.6 million people in the Newcastle urban area and you compare it with Carlisle, a city of 105,000.No wonder there are more amenities in the North East.

Dane's the carpenter, Max is the nature man and Candice, she's the designer. When the creative trio—no, triumvirate—came together, creating modern, high-quality bird houses was just staring them in the face. They create their beauties with forest-friendly sustainable materials and low-VOC stains that are safe for their aviary inhabitants. The unusual designs are inspired by geometric shapes found in nature—and the colors are chosen to highlight the natural beauty of the wood. Three out of four winged creatures agree: They've got this whole miniature carpentering thing down.

These stories have nothing to do with welding-I am a contract field operator for a large Canadian oil & gas production company here out here past where the cows go to die... The plant I work at is small-two guys working across from each other on a 9-and-5 rotation. I have worked with my current cross-shift for just over a year-a very interesting year. For a man with a 3rd class steam ticket, he has very interesting ideas.....don't want to bore anyone with geology stuff, but the oil wells in our part of the world rely on gas pressure in the formation to push the oil to the wellbore. On buddy's 1st day here, he wanted to install a choke on the casing gas side to "force the oil to go to the pump". No amount of patient explanation from me seemed to suffice-only reason it never happened was that he couldn't work up the ambition to book a crew to do it. Also has a penchant for cleaning running, loaded engines with Brakleen -after I pointed out to him the turbocharger on the sales engine as a likely ignition point, he informed me he would switch to Varsol because it is way less flammable.....yeah, spraying it out of a garden sprayer creates way less of a vapor cloud. After he had been here 6 months or so (keep in mind he has lived 3 miles from the plant for 13 years or so), I got a message on my phone one weekend off after midnight from him-the power co. had dropped a phase in a storm. His message informed me he had called the power co. and they had no record of an outage-unfortunately the one he called does not operate within 100 miles of us. Not only has he paid his power bill to one company for 13 years, he bought a surplus truck from them less than a month before this! Can you see a pattern developing here?
None of this should surprise me I guess-before he transferred here, at a safety meeting where the company rolled out its alcohol and drug policy, he basically informed everyone that it was BS and unfair that we couldn't get drunk on the weekends when we were working and on call---I don't care what your thought process is, maybe don't state it to the safety guy? I can't get out of here fast enough.....

Maybe O/A cert. isn't a bad idea after all! Follow this link to see why. I warn ya, it bad stuff!
It looks like a rock crusher. It also looks like he forgot to turn of the gas BEFORE the oxygen! I watched a guy almost blow his hand off once from the same mistake. The torch body blew up in his hand as he was setting it down. It's a good thing he wasnt holding the torch with a normal grip at the time or he'd be missing his hand! Not many shop tools more dangerous than a torch setup. If the thought of a rocket straped right next to a bomb doesn't scare you into following the proper saftey precautions then please do not use a torch within 500' of me.

I think its just a urban myth.
Nobody would do that.
what do ya think about them so-and-so's who come in after hours,
use your bench grinder, and leave a big trench, or 'V' groove in the wheel?
Would that make ya crazy, or what?

Using Unity in Ubuntu 12.04, the Ctrl + Alt + Num Pad combination for positioning windows no longer works completely consistently:
- Ctrl + Alt + 4 (move window to left half of screen) was changed to Ctrl + Super + Left Arrow.
- A similar change moved Ctrl + Alt + 6 to Ctrl + Super + Right Arrow.
So in 12.04 one moves windows to corners using Ctrl + Alt combos, but Super combos are needed to move to the left or right.
This is more than a convenience problem since the new windows positioning provided by the super key combos seems to give different sizes than the Ctrl + Alt combos they replaced, leading to distracting gaps between windows when you combine the two methods to position three or more windows on one screen.
Is there a way to restore the previous behavior so that I can use Ctrl + Alt + Num Pad for all window positioning?

Baseball Signs Mike Giroud to National Letter of Intent
Wednesday, May 30, 2001Johnson City, Tenn. -- The East Tennessee State University athletic department announced today that Mike Giroud (St. Petersburg, Fla.) has signed a National Letter of Intent to join head coach Tony Skole's baseball program for the 2002 season. One of the best high school players in the state of Florida, Giroud amassed incredible statistics during his prep career at Shorecrest High School. He holds the school record for batting average (.451), home runs (15), hits (134), runs (133) and RBIs (110). Giroud also holds the single season record for home runs (6), hits (42) and RBIs (42). A middle infielder., Giroud hit .415 with six home runs and 27 RBIs last season. He belted three extra-inning, game-winning home runs, including one to defeat 19th-ranked Miami Brito. During his junior season, Giroud hit .560 with four homers and 42 RBIs while only striking out one time. The right-hander also went 9-4 on the mound during the last two seasons. He went 3-2 with a 3.86 ERA in 58 innings during his senior season and went 6-2 with a 3.25 ERA in 71 innings as a junior. Giroud played his high school career for head coach Don Reed. Reed is the father of Elizabethton resident and major league catcher, Jeff Reed. "We are extremely excited about the signing of Mike Giroud," Skole said. "Mike is one of the top players in the state of Florida and comes from one of the top high school programs in the country. Mike is extremely intelligent and a student of the game. I have no doubt that he will immediately contribute to our success next season. We are very fortunate to have a player of his caliber come to ETSU." Burklin joins Michael Bauer (Kingsport, Tenn.), Davis Burklin (Knoxville, Tenn.), Justin Clear (La Follette, Tenn.), Keith Davis (Bristol, Va.), Caleb Moore (Knoxville, Tenn.), Trevor Smith (Newport, Tenn.) and Matt Traylor (Knoxville, Tenn.) in the 2002 recruiting class.

Nestlé is the #1 seller of bottled water in the world, but i'm sure that's just a coincidence. Right?
Nestlé Chairman: Water Not a Right, Should Be Given a Market Value and Privatized (Video)
April 20, 2013
Hmmmm, we wonder why he would say that? Nestlés 68-year-old former CEO and current Chairman, Peter Brabeck-Letmathe, says he wants to privatize the water supply because people have a sense of entitlement that causes them to waste copious amounts of water. That all sounds well and good until you realize that, as the #1 seller of water in the world, 8% of Nestlés 2011 sales were from bottled water.
From The Guardian:
Watch the video. Privatizing water talk starts at about the 2:00 mark: http://youtu.be/nTqvBhFVdvE
Activists accuse Nestlé, the leading seller of bottled water which accounted for nearly 8% of its total 2011 sales of 83.6bn Swiss francs (£58bn) of being more interested in lining its own pockets through a back-door privatisation of countries water supplies, than in saving the planet.
Last year, a documentary film, Bottled Life, accused Nestlé of extracting ground water for its bottled brands at the expense of local communities, often in poor countries. While the company refused to take part in the film, it did post online a rebuttal of the allegations.
Brabeck, in combative mood, responds that it is important to be less emotional and more analytical about the issues, although he acknowledges that pressure from civil society groups forced Nestlé to recognise that a company cannot create value for its shareholders if it doesnt create value for society in parallel.
The fact is they [activists] are talking first of all only about the smallest part of the water usage, he says. I am the first one to say water is a human right. This human right is the five litres of water we need for our daily hydration and the 25 litres we need for minimum hygiene.
This amount of water is the primary responsibility of every government to make available to every citizen of this world, but this amount of water accounts for 1.5% of the total water which is for all human usage.
Where I have an issue is that the 98.5% of the water we are using, which is for everything else, is not a human right and because we treat it as one, we are using it in an irresponsible manner, although it is the most precious resource we have. Why? Because we dont want to give any value to this water. And we know very well that if something doesnt have a value, its human behaviour that we use it in an irresponsible manner.
If you look back to when I was born, there were 2.7 billion people and we were not even using 40% of the renewable water, but by seven billion we are already over-using it and if we are going to be up to 10 billion [people], we have to change our relationship with this resource.
If the challenge of water scarcity is to be met, Brabeck says all players in society need to become more effective. Businesses that recognise the scale of the problem have to put pressure on others to act and the thousands of active NGOs need to start working together to create change, rather than each pushing their own particular agendas. Brabeck warns businesses not to hide behind a philanthropic agenda but to build water stewardship into the heart of their business strategies.

Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.
I was always a bit heavy, even when I was a kid. I had a round face and kids would tease me and call me names. So even though, looking back and seeing that I was definitely overweight but nowhere near what I *thought* I looked like, I always felt ashamed and embarrassed of being me. As I got older, the weight kept piling on and I tried everything. Every diet and every program and every method. My self esteem was so low that I imagined people laughing at me all the time. I was going to the gym 5 days a week, cardio training as well as working with weights. Everytime I stepped into the gym, I had to talk myself into staying rather than putting my tail between my legs and running for the hills. I felt like everyone was looking at me and judging me....

Helping Teenagers all over the world to grow and become more confident and faithful in themselves. To build a brighter future.
As the citizens of tomorrow, us young people should be able to build confident,faithful,and more optimistic characters in order to survive in tomorrow's ups and downs. "We are a product of our own thoughts" as Stephan Covey says. So why not think in a better and more ambitious way? All young teenagers should find out about their limitless power and imagination.They should all strive to work diligently and faithfully towards attaining their goals.
Avi Dey
Dec 24 2012: This is a wonderful challange and there are wisdom now on a community level that can be adopted from 'success model" commnities in inspiring teens to careers of future through arts and science bridge. Move away from clutures of mindless violence and move toward peaceful world and disocver the spirit within via music and drama. This is the success model that can be connected. viia "community to community" link as in Post world war II Europe called "community twining". Makes sense ?
- +1
Dec 24 2012: Hello Avi,
your idea made sense to some extent.Unfortunatley, I did not really comprehend some of your ideas.Can you please open up more?
Fritzie -
Dec 23 2012: I applaud your embracing optimism. Optimism and a commitment to hard work are typical foundations of creative achievement.Dec 24 2012: Hello Greg,
- +1
I am not trying to say you don't know about the world, but I feel like I know more about teenagers that you do, and that is because I am a teenager myself. Nowdays, teenagers as I said are ruining their hopes and dreams under the name of realism. I think that if all teenagers start dreaming big and have faith in their dreams, then the world would dramatically improve.Dec 24 2012: Reza, down below you say the world can dramatically change. What change do you think the world needs? In my mind the world is already pretty good.Dec 24 2012: I have been looking at N.N. Talebs book Black Swan again. In that and foooled by randomness,he makes some interesting comments including about time to think. Bill Gates has done the same about Bill Gates,Jr. Being contemplative may be helpful, too. Also, many great men have not been happy, optimistic,etc. Many people we most admire did not have happy childhoods. This includes people from Winston Churchill to E. Roosevelt. The idea of complacantConfident kids with good self-esteem with no good reason to feel that way has almost become a joke in the United States. The idea of having a "can't fail" attitude sounds good. Look at the people who are manic-depressive who end up in jail. It's the manic phase not depressive that get them in trouble. Be happy, but don't loose contact with reality.
Dec 24 2012: Hello George,
It is true that many famous people did not have happy childhoods back then. On the other hand, to be successful, one should not neccessarily have a bad life. You mentioned being happy but not losing contact with reality. I think it is better to be more optimistic rather than realistic.Dec 23 2012: Please take this matter seriously and sacrifice a few minutes of your time thinking about it. I am sure if we build a stable and confident youth character, tomorrow's world will be a better and brighter one. We should guide that young onto the right path and help them attain their dreams and goals.
Dec 23 2012: Reza, please know that most adults have given MORE than a few minutes thought to the importance of young people's understanding that diligence and learning are key factors in leading gratifying and productive lives. I don't think what you are putting forward in that respect is very controversial. From your writing "please take this matter seriously and sacrifice a few minutes of your time thinking about it," I think perhaps you don't realize how much time adults spend thinking about this sort of question, both in the case of their own children and youth more broadly.
An exception may be what you mean by "limitless power." I think convincing anyone he has limitless power, regardless of the person's age, is a hard sell, but that aspect of your case is not necessary to promoting interesting and productive lives. If one makes that argument to young people and they find that their paths are not strewn with limitless victories over the obstacles, they may begin to doubt all the other valid advice and encouragement they have been given or to blame themselves entirely for what they don't achieve.
Dec 23 2012: I have to admit and concur to what you said Fritzie. I think there is a difference between thinking about an idea and really implementing through blood,sweat and tears. What I really like to see is showing teenagers some examples and famous people. We have to teach them about reading. I am sure that every teenager can succeed in his/her life by reading 1)The 7 habits of highly effective people and 2)How to think and grow rich by stephan covey and napoleon hill respectively.
It is true that is we tell them they have limitless power they won't buy that;but what if we tell them to try it and see if it works. You mentioned failure. If we teach through the right ways that failing, failing and failing again is all they need to succedd, then they will finally come to understand. Anyhow, this work requires faith and hard work as teenagers will not easily be persuaded. But it is POSSIBLE.Dec 23 2012: Pat, thank you for commenting but can you please clarify what you said a bit more? It's not that you are wrong or anything, but maybe it's because I didn't really understand your point there.
Dec 24 2012: An individual has 2 choices regarding life one is to be effect one is to be cause. The democracies of the world would have you believe that you need to be taken of as in the case of Greece, Argentina, France, UK, Spain, U.S., and others.
In other countries they believe that freedom is more important. The key to sucess in this environment is the exchange of what you have with another. To create something else is willing to exchange for requires purpose, integrity, hard work, the ability to work with others, and bunch of other qualities.
Of course there are shades in between these 2 extremes but the standard of living the world has today is because of the latter.Dec 25 2012: Once again my profound words are met with:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g04aCp3ej-IDec 23 2012: There is no better incubator for what you are speaking of than the free market.Dec 23 2012: Thank You Fritzie, I would really be thankful if you support my cause on Facebook "youth success and future". We should let all adolescents become aware of the power that lies within them. Through faith,confidence, and optimism, the world can dramatically change.

The sidewall construction is designed for sharp steering response, accurate feedback and increased driver confidence. The NT01 delivers fast and consistent lap times for both the professional racer and track day enthusiast. Recommended for dry competition use.
Awesome tires!

Aggressive Driver (Hard Cornering)
Awesome tyres in very dry conditions. I have used them for tarmac rally sprints and tarmac hill climbs. Very impressed in the dry. Never been so scared in my life. No grip at all on a damp road. Would hate to see what it is like in the rain. Outstanding on the track. Wear rate is pretty low. After 2 Hill climbs they are 100% worn out. Good value for price but I think there is better options

Aggressive Driver (Hard Cornering)
Intro: Using these tires on the track for HPDEs on a BMW 1M. Had previously used Michelin PS2s and Yokohama AD08s.
Caveat: I have not driven these in the wet or snow.
Background: Just ran the NT01s on track for the first time last weekend -- ambient temp 96 degrees, -2.5 camber up front. Driving group is intermediate. Aimed for 36 psi hot.
Initial impression: LOUD! These tires sounded like a truck on the 100 mile drive up to the track.
On track impression: Pleased with grip -- incrementally better than the AD08s, although not the night-and-day difference I was perhaps expecting. Handles heat better and did not get greasy. Gives you audible feedback before giving up.
The not-so-good: be sure to research the NT01 tread splice issue before you buy so that you know what you're getting into!!! My driver-side rear tire is exhibiting some splice -- I'm planning to rotate it to the passenger-front ... hopefully this will cause the splice to close. This was on tires with a 2014 production date.
So far, I'm pretty happy with the tires despite the splice issue. If the splice seals, I'll be happy enough to probably buy again, although I'm tempted to check out the RA1s ...

Do not drive this tire in snow or icy conditions. Very dangerous. I have never been afraid to drive in the snow but now I am with this tire. I feel I have no control in snow.

I am very satisfied with this tire. Have used it on both short tracks and Nurburgring, and it performs very well. Can also be used for daily driving. Far less noise than my old tires. Lots of grip and confidence. I have bought new for 2012 season

While many around the region are girding for the return of the 17-year cicada — sometimes mistakenly called locusts, as if the bugs are monsters from 1950s science fiction set to take over the world — Frederick County might miss out on the worst of the invasion.
This crop of cicadas is known as Brood II, and last made an appearance in the region in 1996, according to information on the University of Maryland's Entomology Department website, entomology.umd.edu.
The bugs are about two inches long and have bright red eyes and large wings. They live underground for their 17-year life cycle. They emerge at the end of their lives for about six weeks to shed their skins, mate and lay their eggs, which will feed on tree roots until they emerge again in 2030.
While above ground, male cicadas make noise to attract females, creating a distinct humming, buzzing sound.
Susan Trice, the horticulture educator and master gardener coordinator for the University of Maryland Extension Office, Frederick County, said the information she's seen on sites such as www.cicadas.info, run by cicada researcher John Zyla, lead her to believe Frederick will miss the bugs. That site says Frederick is due for the next major invasion in 2021, when Brood X emerges.
Mike Raupp, a University of Maryland entomology professor, wrote on his "Bug of the Week" blog on the school's website about the cicadas on Monday. In that blog post, he said cicadas have begun to emerge in North Carolina, but not in Maryland, and probably won't arrive for several weeks. He also said the bugs might not emerge beyond southern Maryland counties such as St. Mary's County, and might not reach western areas of the state, like Frederick County.
"I fear that D.C., Montgomery, and Prince George's are out of luck this time for enjoying cicadas in the back yard, but who knows, maybe the cicadas will deliver us a surprise," he wrote in the blog post.
The bugs are harmless to humans and pets, but can damage smaller tree limbs when the females lay eggs, according to the University of Maryland's website. The females use a razor-like appendage to carve slits in tree limbs, and favor limbs about the size of a pencil.
Eggs are deposited in the slits, where they grow before dropping into the ground to live subterranean lives, the site says.
Despite the possibility of tree damage, at least one Frederick farmer seems nonplussed. Bob Black, owner of Thurmont's Catoctin Mountain Orchard, which grows berries, apples and other fruits, said he wasn't too concerned with the bug's arrival. He said limb damage is usually rare, and usually doesn't devastate trees.
"Occasionally, you might see that — it's not total devastation," Black said. "Young trees are more vulnerable. You certainly want all your limbs there. We just try to do a couple of timely sprays. Usually, we've been OK."
He said the bugs would be controlled by applying extra pesticide.
"It's just one of those things and you might have to put one or two extra sprays on, maybe," he said. "That's what we've done in the past. I'm 61 now, so I've been through a few cicada seasons."
Black said he hoped for dry weather as the ground temperature rose and the bugs emerged.
"As much as we need rain, you hope you have a dry season when they're getting ready to emerge," he said. "If it's dry, they can't hardly get out of the ground ... It would be nice that if the cicadas are trying to get out, if we could get some dry weather and maybe not all of them can even get out of the ground."
He said the farm would pay extra attention to young trees to help prevent damage as much as possible, but he was more concerned about other pests.
"It's just part of another daily routine that we get into," he said. "That's just a seasonal thing. I'm glad its not every year, but stink bugs still outweigh what cicadas will do."

2 cups
all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon
baking powder
1/8 teaspoon
2 cups
white sugar
1 cup
1 cup
sour cream
1/2 teaspoon
vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups
packed brown sugar
1 cup
all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons
butter, melted
2 teaspoons
ground cinnamon
2 cups
fresh blueberries
1 cup
chopped pecans
Sooo good! Definitely going to make this again! When spreading the batter and layers, there was a point where I thought the recipe didn't make enough batter for the pan, but I decided to trust the recipe and it turned out great! "Spreading" the batter after putting the layer of berries and sugar/butter crumbs was a little tricky...but it turns out fantastic! I used nonfat plain Greek yogurt instead of the sour cream; more nutritious and less fat. Definitely recommend this recipe!
I love/hate this cake, which I'll have to call my Ugly Duckling Cake. The instructions for assembly just didn't work for me – nor did my alternative, tho' I believe it's the better of the two options. The common problem with both methods is that there's just not enough batter to divide in half and "spread." If you "spread" enough batter to cover the bottom there's not NEARLY enough to "spread" on the top. I added the blueberries to the batter rather than in two layers, and it would have been an even bigger nightmare to "spread" had I not. As I tried to "spread" the second half of the batter, the batter took the topping WITH the offset spatula. I tried my best I but I nearly pitched the whole thing in sheer frustration and disappointment. But I figured I had nothing more to lose except the cost of the electricity to bake this mess. Topping it with the remaining cinnamon mixture camouflaged the disaster underneath, but I was anxious to see what it looked like inside. It took longer to bake than indicated, and now I'm calling this a complete and total failure. I let it cool, cut into the slightly overbrowned topping, carelessly plopped a piece of the cake onto a plate and tasted…. it was heaven. Moist, buttery rich, with a sweet and flavorful, cinnamony topping. No, I'm not throwing this out. No way. It might not meet my standards in terms of prettiness for Hubs to take to a meeting tomorrow as planned, but we'll enjoy every crumb of this difficult and ugly cake.

I like homemade blueberry muffins, but rarely eat fresh blueberries (tart texture). Anyway before I made this I reviewed the comments and agree it would have been a challenge to divide the batter and spread the top layer. So, I made the batter then folded the blueberries into it. Then I put the crumble topping on top before baking (I should have halved the topping bc it was a bit thick and crunchy). It was also easy to make. I made this for my fellowship meeting tomorrow and HAD to try it first. I loved it. The cake was so moist and the blueberries were delicious. It was like eating a fluffy blueberry streusel muffin. Brilliant!
For everyone who had trouble getting it to spread out and look pretty:
I read the reviews for this beforehand, so I knew what to expect when layering the coffee cake, and I took a risk. I added about a tablespoon of milk to the 2nd half of the cake batter after spreading the first down, and that thinned it out just enough to spread out easily without affecting the way it baked.
This was an excellent coffee cake! Rich, buttery, nice texture, definitely an A+.
This is a very delicious coffee cake. I read the reviews about the batter being hard to halve and spread. What I did was drop big spoonfuls of batter in the bottom of the greased pan, then bring the globs of batter together. I followed the recipe exactly with the exception of how to halve the batter in the pan. I did the exact same thing with the other half of the batter. I had no problems with it being done this way. I took off one star because this took an hour and twenty-five minutes to bake. At the one hour mark, it wasn't baked in the center. When this had cooled slightly, it was moist, rich and buttery tasting. This really is a great and easy recipe that I will be making again.
This is the best Blueberry Cake recipes I have ever made and tasted! I didn't have any issues with making the layers, I simply plopped the blueberries on top of the first layer of batter, creating a deep ribbon of blueberry in the middle and did the same with the remaining batter. It doesn't have to be a smooth layer, there is baking powder in the mix, and it helps puff up the batter and topping. I added a little bit of nutmeg and mace, as these are alway my fav spices with cinnamon. Don't be put off by the reviews...this is a keeper!
very yummy! made almost exactly as written. only change was i used 1/2 whole wheat flour and 1/2 all purpose, and didn't use nuts (allergy). Took a few extra mins to fully bake, but worth the wait!
I have to agree that it is slightly tricky to divide the batter when making this recipe. When it comes to the second layer of batter, I put dollups of batter over the area, and then spread it. It seemed to work. After placing all the ingredients in the 9 x 13, I baked the coffee cake for 45 to 50 minutes and when I was pulling it out of the oven, it was still jiggling in the middle so I knew it wasn't done. I had to bake this cake over an hour and maybe 10 minutes more to get it done! I brought it to work and they loved it. It is very moist and yummy. I may make it again.

Derek Lam / Fall 2014 Ready-to-Wear
Search a show by:
"It's about creating a hypnotic, energetic experience," said Derek Lam, not about his clothes this season, but about the Buddhist art of south-central Asia that informed them. "In Bhutan and Tibet, the colors are bright and clashing, and that was intriguing to me. So this collection has a lot of unexpected clashes of colors—lavender and green, curry and cornflower blue—hues that don't seem to go, but that together create a harmonious experience." And indeed, throughout the show, they really did.
Taking the theme further, Lam showed a series of asymmetrical dresses and separates that he intended to mimic robes worn by novice monks. These pieces wrapped around the body with equal measures of drape and structure. "The monks wear just a single, simple piece of fabric," Lam said. "I love the simplicity of that, but then wanted to give that idea more of a sportswear feeling." So imagine a sweater that seems as if it's winding around the body and neck, paired with a loose, wide-leg pant. There was a nubuck-skin dress that folded and fell into layers in the front. Even the boots, high and baggy, wrapped around the leg and were secured by a belt-like strap. "It's slouchy," said Lam. "Breezy, easy movement everywhere." Especially in the dresses that were slit up and down the seams so that they fluttered like prayer flags as the models walked. But speaking of sportswear, because it wouldn't be a Derek Lam collection without it, there was a point about midway through the show when the direction shifted, from robes to workwear. "I am always looking for a new way to get dressed for work that is not just a usual suit," said the designer, pointing to the smart, patchwork skirt that he showed belted and paired with a black mock-neck sweater and blazer. Citing Piet Mondrian's energetic work Broadway Boogie Woogie as a second source of inspiration, these looks were more urban (and more obviously referential, with Mondrian color grids on sweater collars). Eveningwear, too, was suitable for a city—strict and corseted and mostly black—though the show came full circle at the end with three silk prayer-flag-like dresses for the finale.

Former Rep. Jack Brooks, D-Texas, who was in the motorcade when President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in 1963, died on Tuesday night from a sudden illness, the Associated Press reports. He was 89.
Brooks, who was considered one of the more influential members of the House at the time, lost reelection during the Republican wave of 1994. Brooks was one of the last Texas Democrats who served under former House Speaker Sam Rayburn.
"I never thought being a congressman was supposed to be an easy job, and it doesn't bother me a bit to be in a good fight," Brooks once said, according the AP.
Brooks is seen in the famous photo of Lyndon B. Johnson being sworn in on Air Force One following Kennedy's assassination.
