It helped a lot! Honestly, it was amazing!
it's pretty good.
Honestly, the only problem I've ever found, was the fact that I take the pill when I wake up in the morning, and trying to remember what day it is... Also it did a wonderful job of helping to clear up my acne! I've used it for just over a year now, and I honestly wouldn't change.
LOVE this stuff. I've been taking it for 7 years now, my periods were shortened from 6-7 days a month to 2-3. I went from having severe PMS, cramps and bloating to mild symptoms that don't last as long. You do have to remember to take it, but I have a reminder on my cell phone set to go off at the same time everyday, and its not a problem. I've been sexually active almost the whole time I've been taking this pill, and no babies yet! I know every person is different and reacts differently to different pills, but I love the way I feel on this pill and would definitely reccommend that anyone try it.
WHERE TO START? This pill did more harm for me than good! In a matter of months, my clear skin started break out!! I had acne on my back, which I have never had. I went from a slim, petite girl to gaining weight right and left. I ate the same things and excercised and still gained 30 pounds over the period of a year! Not to mentoin mood swings! My man didnt know what in the world was wrong with me! I Have been off of it for six months and still dont think my body has recovered.

My man didnt know what in the world was wrong with me! I Have been off of it for six months and still dont think my body has recovered.
Ortho Cyclen SUCKS!! I have been taking it for birth control for about 2 weeks and am going off of it tomorrow. It just better not take too long to get out of my system. I think it should be banned and I cannot believe with all of the potential side effects listed in the little pamphlet you get with it, all the drug companies can say is, "Oh it will clear up your skin???" Bull sh**t. Ive had problems with acne for years and my skin was just starting to look the clearest its ever been with my (diet, exercise, homemade organic skincare products). I start taking this pill and I broke out ALL over my chest, shoulders, and of course my face. I got zits where I never got zits before. Bottom line I do NOT believe in taking pills that mess up your natural body rhythm and cause everything to go wrong with you so the drug companies can bank on your problems even further and this pill proved my point loud and clear.
ok heres my story. I used this for 3 months for birth control. It was fine. I stayed my regular period. (Which I love, I dont like not having a period. Your supposed to naturally. And this is my way to know if I'm preggo.) I didn't miss 1 pill, EVER! And I missed my period and took a pregnancy test and I was pregnant. So I got pregnant with perfect use. So I happened to be the less than 1% of women who get pregnant. But I don't regret it because now I have my beautiful son. But I would never use this ever again and I would most definatly nor reccomend it to any woman. I would reccomend Paragard. Its hormone free so you period stays normal, no weight gain, or mood swings. nothing. and it can last up to 10 years. you can get it taken out at anytime you wish. its wonderful.
Missed one pill and got pregnant After using Ortho Tri-Cyclen for a few years, my doctor switched me to Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo to help with my acne. I never had any side effects on either of the pills but I'm not great about taking them at the same time every day, and I missed one pill about a month ago and now I'm pregnant. I thought the pill was a little more reliable than that. Just be aware that it's not.
I hate estrogen I really hated being on an estrogen-containing birth control pill. The idea was to reduce my menstrual flow and clear up my acne. Hah. Neither happened. Not only that, but even though I took the tablet at night, I would be SO nauseated by morning that I wanted to vomit until almost noon every day. Did I mention how much I hate estrogen? When I finally was put on a progestin-only medication, all of the bad symptoms that came with the pill or because of my own estrogen went away. Go figure. I hate estrogen.

Benedictine Blessing Bracelet
Item# I32860

Woven and knotted using a durable cotton cord, each bracelet comes mounted on a card telling the story of Medjugorje, the Benedictine medals, and how the bracelets remind us to make the world a better place by using our hands for good.
They transition from daytime casual to night-time dressy with ease, and I love how comfortable they are because of the sliding slip knot closure, enabling them to fit nearly everyone perfectly. May you be blessed by the prayers and love that are sent by those making each bracelet.

Coco Fusco is a New York-based interdisciplinary artist, writer and Director of Intermedia Initiatives at Parsons The New School for Design.

There were top ten times in Malaysian qualifying for Kevin Magnussen, Jean-Eric Vergne and Jenson Button...
Kevin Magnussen: "The car isn't too bad in these rainy conditions, but I think we just got the timings a bit wrong. I'm still learning about Inters and Full Wets, so it was hard to make the right calls this afternoon. But I'm discovering more all the time, and overall I'd say today was good experience for me. Eighth isn't too bad, but it isn't too good either. It's certainly not satisfying, because it's not where we want to be. It's a shame I went off near the end of Q2 - the trip into the gravel caused some damage to the floor - I don't know how much performance we lost, but I think we could have done a little bit more in Q3 if the car had been in one piece. Our car feels good, and it definitely has untapped potential. I think we can do a better job tomorrow. The pace probably isn't quite there yet for us to be able to fight for outright victory, but we'll be in the mix. Let's see what happens."
Jenson Button: "The decision to run on Inters in Q3 was my choice. I usually make those kinds of calls - and tend to get them right - but I got it wrong today. When you're quick enough to be fastest on Full Wets, then choosing to run on Inters isn't worth the gamble; but, when you're fighting at the back of the top 10, it's worth giving it a go to see what happens. And into that final qualifying session, just as it looked as though the conditions were heading back towards favouring the Inter, it went and rained again. Funnily enough, though, I'm not too disappointed that I made the wrong call. We might have qualified only a couple of places higher if we'd called it differently, and that's not what we're aiming for - so it was worth a gamble. Besides, if it's wet tomorrow, it'll be tough for everyone - the tyres give us no grip in these conditions, since all the cars are obviously running lower downforce than last year. No-one knows what'll happen tomorrow - but one thing everyone knows is that, if it rains, it'll be trick."
Toro Rosso:
Jean-Eric Vergne: "I am happy having finished ninth and in the top ten for the second race in a row. But it was a difficult qualifying and the car was not easy to drive. We've never been really fast but in Q2 I could manage to do a very good lap that brought me into Q3. We have to look at all the data now to understand why we were quite slow in the wet. I'm really confident the team and I can do a good job tomorrow and I hope we'll finish in the points here like we did in Melbourne. We definitely have the car to do so."
Daniil Kvyat: "It was a shame to be knocked out of Q3 right at the end by my team-mate, but Jev was faster than me today and I was too conservative on my last lap. As for the incident with Alonso, the visibility was very poor for everyone and I think he didn't see me and in the end, he turned into me. I think it was quite normal that he didn't see me because there was so much spray. Now, let's see what happens tomorrow, as it really depends on the conditions out there. Q3 could have been possible today, but all the same P11 is a good starting point."
Esteban Gutierrez: "It was a good qualifying. In the morning we were really busy and we tried to put everything together. Everyone did a great job, and we managed to overcome some small issues to have a reliable car. I really want to thank my team and also Ferrari, as they have been working very hard to further improve the power unit. The conditions on the track were quite tough. However, we managed to improve the car during qualifying, trying to adapt the aero balance and also the tyre pressures. It was a good day. P12 is a great starting position considering our overall performance. Tomorrow we are going to do our best"
Adrian Sutil: "Our strategy was to get out onto the track a bit later, as the track normally has the best conditions at this stage. However, more rain started to fall again. We would have improved, but due to the red flag we did not have any more time left. The car was very difficult to drive in these conditions, as the tyres never had enough grip. There is a lot of work ahead of us. At the moment it is difficult to drive a good lap. We need to improve step by step and be patient."
Felipe Massa: " In the dry conditions we are normally fighting for a top six position and the car feels good, but when it is wet the car lacks grip and can feel unstable with lots of sliding which is something we need to address. It's a shame as this qualifying result is not really reflective of where we should be. The good thing is that the cars seem to be very close in terms of lap time so that will help us overtake tomorrow, and I'm hoping that we have very different weather conditions as the car feels completely different in the dry."
Valtteri Bottas: "It was a difficult qualifying session for us today and it was very reminiscent of our qualifying in Melbourne. The more water there was on track the more we struggled with the rear grip of the car. We tried both the intermediates and the wets but we just couldn't get the grip we needed from either tyre. The wet conditions highlight where our weaknesses are, so we have a clear direction for where we need to improve the car. I still think we have a chance of fighting for some points though if we have a dry race."

Comments On Jan 04, 2015:Nice quality and would do a good job but I cannot comfortably wear them as they seem small. I am about 205 lbs so I'm larger than the average motocross racer I guess.

Comments On Nov 17, 2014:I was pretty excited when i got these on sale. fit was good.. a little on the tight side. i bought the xtra larges (13" forearms 15" bicepts) but after one ride... velcro stitching came loose on one the upper forarm band.. Sure i crashed a couple times on that side, but really just one ride?? 2 crashes? not cool. i was expecting more durabilty, but i went against my better judgement when it comes to fox products and bought these anyway. oh well. at least they don't slide down our arms.. and the protection seems ample (as long as the velcro holds!!). hopefully my wife can do some magic with the sewing kit and tune them up for trail duty.
Additional Comments On Dec 13, 2014:Update. went on my second ride with these pads.. No crashing this time (yay) and the velco on the Right forearm (opposite side as on the first ride)is coming unstitched now. this is the only fly in the ointment for what would be a really great set of forearm/ elbow pads. No slipping. ample protection, pretty comfortable and competitively priced. . bummer they aren't stitched better.

Comments On Dec 01, 2014:These are actually fairly comfy. They do start to rotate on my arms after a while, requiring a little adjusting. It's a small price to pay to keep my arms safe. I don't know if there are any that stay in place any better. I haven't crashed since I got them so I don't know how they are for that. Wish I would've had them for my previous crashes though. Would've saved a lot of pain.

Comments On Jul 26, 2014:I don't like these much at all. I bought these for my son & I. I got the XL for myself & the straps barely fit around my modest arm size. I got the Medium for my 165# 6' tall kid & he complains of the fit as well. They're uncomfortable when the male velcro wears into my skin. The sewing & material seem pretty much top tier & that's why I couldn't justify a bellow average rating.

Comments On Jun 19, 2014:One of the straps broke on the first ride.

Comments On Jun 08, 2014:I bought these after crashing on the street with a jacket that had elbow pad inserts that just rolled out of the way. Haven't crashed on them again yet but I like them better than my old hockey elbow pads so I use them for that too now and the protection there is great. They always stay in place. I have used them for MX and single track but arm pump sets in way sooner. Its hard to get a good balance of tension on the straps to allow them to stay in place and not cut off circulation when you start to get tired.

Comments On Apr 28, 2014:I've been using these pads over a year now and they are still comvortable and all straps and velcro still work like new. They are very comfortable and have saved my bones a couple of times.

Comments On Apr 20, 2014:The elbow pads were very comfortable, though a bit tight on top portion... or maybe I just have fat arms. I purchased the S/M, the lower portion fit great. The only complaint is that the velcro sticks the the elastic and frays it. I'm not sure after long use if it gets better or worse. Overall great value, great pads.

Comments On Mar 03, 2014:Strap came unglued first day when I pulled it off.. Now I have to wear it through the mesh part and it's too tight..so look at the others with better straps or if you have thin forearms these would be fine

I tried your recipe and the pancakes turned out great. Children were delighted, so I will make it soon again. Thanks for the excellent and easy recipe. Greetings from Croatia! ( Europe )
Yes, they look very good. Next time you make some it'd be good to add a picture with the syrup and whatever else finishes these off for you.

You know that you should eat, but you're not hungry. Even foods that you usually can't resist hold no appeal. Is it normal for your appetite to drop off like this?
Having little interest in food once in a while is probably nothing to worry about. "But, any time you have a loss of appetite and unintentional weight loss for more than a couple of weeks, you should check in with your doctor," advises Michael Fleming, M.D., chairman of the board of the American Academy of Family Physicians. You may not be getting enough nutrients, which can affect your health.
Your loss of appetite may be because of several possible reasons:
Anxiety or depression. "Grief or a life change that brings on depression is one of the most common reasons for appetite loss. Some people just lose the urge to eat when they're upset," says Dr. Fleming. If you're depressed, treatment can help with symptoms and restore your appetite, too. Seek help if you've been feeling sad, anxious, irritable or discouraged for more than a couple of weeks.
Age. As you grow older, you don't need to eat as much. Your sense of smell and ability to taste diminish, too. Poorly fitting dentures or tooth or gum problems also can interfere with chewing—and your appetite.
Medications. Some allergy medicines, cold remedies, antibiotics, and prescription painkillers can affect appetite. So can some medicines for high blood pressure, lung or heart conditions, or thyroid disease. But, don't stop taking any medication before talking with your doctor. Sometimes a simple adjustment to your dosage or changing to another medication is all that's needed.
Health concerns. Cancer and its treatment, an infection, some gastrointestinal disorders, morning sickness, or the eating disorder anorexia nervosa also may help explain a lack of desire for food.
Other possibilities. If you live alone, you may not feel like making meals for yourself. Or, perhaps a limited income keeps you from preparing favorite recipes.
Get a complete checkup by your health care provider. If you have a medical problem that's causing your appetite to fall off, get treatment. If your health is okay, then try these tips:
Eat smaller meals throughout the day.
Keep nutritious, appealing foods handy.
Try homemade smoothies with milk, fruit and a little bran.
Save beverages for after meals. Drinking before a meal can fill you up.
Eat meals with others, if possible.
Consider Meals on Wheels or a similar local program.
Serious health issues, such as an eating disorder or a medical or psychological problem require ongoing medical care. With help, you can get back your appetite.

ya know he wasn't the #1 QB in teh country because you guys shut him down, so i imagine you guys were humbledOriginally Posted by byroan
He may not even be that. He has not played well at all this year. If this continues, he may not get drafted. However, the flip side is if he all of a sudden figures things out and lights up Georgia and FSU (not likely on either account) he will be right back to a first day pick. I personally am not sold on him, but draft statuses are very flakey (is that a word?).
Now thats just flat out ridiculous. Just because he's had a hard time picking up a gimmick offense does not make him become a undrafted QB. Natural talent does count for something you know. As for "unlikely" to light up UGA and FSU? HA! It wouldn't be the first time he did. Be realistic!Originally Posted by Oboy

To be the Budd you must take the Walk - Mike Buddwalk
Yeah, we lost to Independence every time by at least 30 points. They're on a 80+ game winning streak. It almost came to an end 2 weeks ago but they won it on a field goal as time expired. Greatest HS game I've ever seen. They were losing 28-0 after the first qtr.Originally Posted by Buddwalk
I am being realistic. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean I am not being realistic. Chris Rix and Brock Berlin both had huge amounts of natural talent. BOTH went undrafted. ALOT goes into the draft. Don't get me wrong I actually like Leak, but he has not played well at all this season. And yes he did well against FSU and UGA before, but his oline was playing better in those games. I would love to see Leak come out and prove everyone wrong, but until he does...Originally Posted by SpeedRush99
Just because someone does not agree with you does not mean they are not realistic. At this point there is no way you can say that he will definitely light up those teams and will definitely be drafted. Not unless you have a crystal ball (in which case, what are the winning lotto numbers?). So at this point anything can happen.
I never said he was definitely gonna light them up, just that he has before. Everyone knows Florida has had great success against Georgia. All bias aside, Rix wasn't half the QB Leak is and there is a reason Berlin transfered to Miami, cause he wasn't gonna start over Leak at Florida, horrible comparison. I never claimed to have a crystal ball but theres no way Leak goes undrafted.Originally Posted by Oboy
Leak won't leave college this year, no way. And the gators this year are like the dolphins. The offense is atrocious this year. The oline is blocking well, no running game, riddled with some big injuries and learning a new system. You can't credit leak soley, it is the entire Offensive side of the ball.
how are they like the dolphins again?Originally Posted by FinSinceBirth

Iraqis aren't the only ones throwing shoes: Americans remain broadly critical of U.S. involvement in Iraq, a view unaltered by security gains. And Afghanistan presents its own challenges, with broad public worries about progress and prospects alike.
On Iraq, George W. Bush's surprise trip Sunday took him to the root of his own unpopularity: Sixty-four percent of Americans in this new ABC News/Washington Post poll say the war was not worth fighting, steady for two years. And in the dwindling days of his presidency, 68 percent disapprove of Bush's job performance overall.
Click here for PDF with charts and questions.
The two are inextricably linked.
Bush and the war have been unpopular for four years running, with an almost perfect correlation between the two views. While the economy's taken center stage, it's the Iraq war that's most damaged Bush over the long term.
The success of the "surge" of U.S. forces in improving security is almost an ironic twist.
Bush heralded it Sunday, and indeed 56 percent now say the United States is making "significant progress" restoring civil order in Iraq, up from 40 percent in April. (The rest may be reflecting on the ongoing, if less numerous, car-bomb attacks there.)
Even more, 65 percent, are now optimistic about Iraq's prospects in the year ahead, up 19 points from last year to a new high since 2004. Some of that stems from better ratings of security there; some, instead, from greater optimism among Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents encouraged by Barack Obama's election.
In any case it's in the broader analysis, beyond the situation on the ground -- the cost in lives and dollars vs. perceived benefits -- that nearly two-thirds continue to call the war not worth fighting.
And as that view is unchanged, so is its intensity: Fifty percent feel "strongly" that the Iraq war was not worth it. Fewer than half as many, 21 percent, strongly feel the opposite -- tying the all-time low in strong support for the war.
Such views put some heat on Obama; not only do 70 percent say he should withdraw U.S. forces from Iraq, but, among many high expectations for the incoming president, 64 percent think in fact he will end the U.S. involvement there.
Views of U.S. involvement in Afghanistan, also subject to a farewell Bush visit, are at once less critical but also less optimistic.
Fifty-five percent see the war there as worth fighting, a marked contrast with Iraq, where it's 34 percent. However just 44 percent characterize U.S. military efforts in Afghanistan as successful, vs. 51 percent who say it's been unsuccessful.
That's a vast difference from early in that war: In October 2002, 70 percent called the war in Afghanistan successful.
And, as noted, optimism is in short supply, with just 49 percent optimistic about the prospects in Afghanistan in the next year, well below the level of optimism about Iraq.
Those concerns are especially significant because Americans by a 51-40 percent margin believe that success in Afghanistan is necessary if the United States is to prevail in its broader campaign against terrorism.
Those numbers are reversed in Iraq; the public by 51-42 percent says winning there is not necessary to defeat terrorism more broadly.
Nonetheless, as ratings of security in Iraq have improved, so has the sense that winning there is necessary; today's 42 percent is up from a low of 31 percent last spring.

I just got word that we got our first shipment of new shirts and they should be heading out this week. Whoot! Also, there is a fun video of my mom's cat watching Cinnamon over at the Birdchick Blog.
The signing at Big Hat Books last weekend was loads of fun. And I was shocked by how many kids showed up. I mean, I kind of see the book as fun for all ages, but I had no idea so many kids would be there and were really into it--that is pretty darned sweet. Cinnamon had a great time because she was the center of attention, it was actually kind of hard to buy that she is such a disapproving bunny.
The book store staff was really sweet and had a blanket ready for Cinnamon to sit on while we were at the table. We were there for two hours, bet we did get breaks for Cinnamon to hop around the store. What was really sweet was that a family who lives with a bunny named Trixie brought a gift bag for Cinnamon (above). The bag was chock full of bunny goodness: Timothy hay, an organic apple, fresh organic dandelion greens, and organic carrots--let me say, she enjoyed the whole thing--including the paper bag. Thank you Trixie and Family!
We've had some other exciting developments as well! On November 16--one month after the book was released, we got a note from our supplier at Harper Collins that they were out of Disapproving Rabbits books and it was back ordered. A reprint is scheduled and more should be available very soon. If you have ordered a book from us and haven't received it yet--don't panic. There are still some distributors who have them in stock and we've been able to get hold some and will have them to you soon. But, if you want a book in time for the Holidays, I would pick it up when you see it. If you want it personalized, I would get your order in ASAP so we can make sure to get it on the list to ship in time for the Holidays. I signed all the books at Big Hat and I think DreamHaven has books left as well--if not, it's easy enough for me to pop over to DH and sign one from them.
Another exciting development is that Barnes and Noble is featuring the book on their Holiday Humor table--again, if you see one at B&N, I would grab it soon, I know they have their own distribution system and shouldn't run out but I have no idea of knowing the numbers there.
A third exciting development is that Urban Outfitters picked up the book too! Who knew bunnies were so hip? So, there are a variety of places to pick up the books.
Here is my sister Terri, my mom (in heels), me, and my sister Monica at the book signing.

Seductions of Rice; Gohan, Sushi, Mochi: The Japanese Way
Include recipe page number and reviews.
- The original comment has been removed
We had a number of little dishes for lunch on Sunday. Inarizushi, kinpira gobo, cucumber and wakame salad and asparagus in a sesame sauce (asaparagasu no goma yogoshi).
Brown Bag Sushi (inari zushi) p. 222
Begin by pouring boiling water over the abura age (fried tofu pocket) and squeeze out excess water and cut in half. This helps eliminate excess oil. Next put dashi, soy, mirin and sugar in a pan, bring to a boil, add the abura age and place a lid (I used a wooden drop lid- otoshi buta) on the tofu pockets and simmer 15-20 minutes, drain excess liquid and stuff each pocket with sushi rice.
This is not very labor intensive and the results are tasty. This makes a great, portable snack too. Pre-seasoned inari zushi is available in a can, but the flavors are much stronger and sweeter. Making your own results in better balanced flavors.
Kitsune is the Japanese word for fox, not inari.
re: BigSal
what a lovely looking meal.
re: BigSal
Big Sal, so spare and elegant -- ! ... Maybe inari means brown bag, or "little football" :)
ctually, a 4-second Google check just told me inari means both "shrimp", and "successful one".
I have (oops) bought little cans of the pre-made, so will try this tonight. I remember liking this kind of sushi in Hawaii as a child (1950s). And I'm glad to see the recipe for sushi rice in the book is about identical to the one in my rice cooker cookbook. This is the cover recipe--there is a little ball of seed-covered rice in the picture too, I think it's just the sushi rice without the jacket/pocket.
re: blue room
I hope you like it. It is definitely not as strongly seasoned as the cans. These are also a very nostalgic treat for me. growing up, my mom would make these for us frequently. They were always well received by our friends that were not familiar with Japanese food.
re: BigSal
Brown Bag Sushi
I was unable to find the fried tofu squares (or perhaps overlooked them in the crowded, fascinating shelves of the Asian market) but I did happen upon the prepared version in the refrigerated section of the store.
Love this simple, tasty dish. I had friends over for dinner tonight, and made plates and plates of sushi. This was the first to disappear. A very carnivorous pal told me that he would eat tofu a lot more if it was prepared in this fashion all the time. I suppose frying in oil makes anything more appealing!
I topped some with toasted sesame seeds, others with flying fish roe, and some with nori strips for variation. Yum!
Winter stir-fry with root vegetables (Kinpira gobo) p. 194
This is one of my favorite ways to eat gobo (burdock root). I like to eat this meatless, so I used half gobo and half carrots (julienned). The gobo is placed in water with a bit of vinegar to help keep its color and to remove the aku (bitterness). The gobo and carrots are stir-fried in sesame oil until tender and then soy sauce and mirin are added and very briefly simmered. Finish with sesame seeds and red pepper powder (I used shichimi togarashi).
This is an easy dish that can be made in advance and served at room temperature. The kinpira cooking style can be used for other vegetables like celery, lotus roots, broccoli stems, green peppers, konnyaku, but I like the gobo/carrot version best.
If you do not have mirin, you can use soy, sake and sugar instead.
Cucumber and wakame salad p. 191
The Japanese name for this dish is kyuri to wakame no sunomono. (I always like to know the name of a dish even if I don't speak the language in case I go to that country, talk about food with a person from that country, etc. )
Great recipe for the summer. The salad is cool and interesting texturally because of the addition of wakame. Soak wakame (mine was not salted) in water for 30 minutes then drain and rinse. I skipped the additional step of boiling. Squeeze dry. My wakame pieces were big, so I chopped mine up into small pieces. Remove bitterness from cucumbers, by slicing a piece from the stem and rub the cut surfaces until it foams and then rinse off. I peeled my cucumbers as the skins were quite thick. Seeded and juilienned cucumber is sprinkled with salt and let sit for 30 minutes. Squeeze excess moisture from cucumbers, add wakame (I did not use the whole amount) and dress with soy, rice vinegar, sake, water, sugar and salt (I did not use all of the dressing either). A refreshing and gently seasoned salad.
re: BigSal
I made this as well, and wasn't too pleased with the results. I don't think it was the fault of the recipe though, it may just have been to much wakame for me. Perhaps if I reduced that amount, it would have been more enjoyable, but it just had too much sea flavour for my liking. I enjoyed the flavours of the dressing though.
re: Allegra_K
I thought the amount of wakame suggested was too much too. I just added some until it looked right to me.
re: BigSal
Cucumber and wakame salad p. 191
I also made this. I have noticed that wakame comes in two forms, that I have seen. One is just called wakame, and is big pieces, and the other is wakame flakes, which are smaller (but are not flakes when rehydrated, they are 2-3 inch square after soaking). I happened to have the latter. The recipe did not specify which kind to get. I had a hunch that if you had the flakes, you would need less, so I used 1/2 the amount called for. That was still way too much. Probably about 1/8 the amount called for would be appropriate if you are using the flakes. I soaked and boiled as directed, then drained, pressed dry, and chopped into small pieces. I used one American cucumber, and I didn't seed it, just because I forgot. Made the dressing as directed. It was a bit more than needed for the cucumber and wakame. The end result was quite good, but I made a lot of modifications on the fly. I feel that the recipe as written was vague and the proportions were off. Still, it's a good dish worth experimenting with.
Sesame Sea Salt (gomashio) p. 187
This is a very common dry condiment for rice, the general term for it is furikake. There are a ton of different flavors of furikake, but this is definitely a classic. Roast black sesame seeds for a few minutes, add sea salt (I used grey sea salt) and toast 30 seconds. Sprinkle on top of rice. It is very simple, but adds a little variety to the rice. My Mr. isn't crazy about plain white rice and this addition adds just enough to have him enjoy a bowl.
re: BigSal
also a great seasoning for onigiri Yummy!!!
re: PazzoPerSushi
Absolutely! Onigiri is on my list for later this week. I am making shiozake (salted salmon) to put inside.

In honor of National Animal Advocacy Day on April 30, we're running a special series on the blog this week to honor those individuals who dedicate their energies to standing up for animals. Meet our first profiled citizen lobbyist, Susan Brady Barnes of Southbury, Connecticut.
Although she has loved animals all her life and has three rescued dogs of her own, until five months ago, Susan Brady Barnes had never heard the term "puppy mill."
"On Facebook, I saw a photo of a woman holding a dog," she remembers. "It looked like a lump of stuffing out of an old couch. I thought, 'What am I looking at?' Then I read the story, and it changed my life."
Today, Susan volunteers for the ASPCA as a citizen lobbyist, supporting legislation like S.B. 445, known as the Puppy Mill Bill, which aims to restrict the sale of puppy mill dogs in Connecticut pet stores.
"There's no excuse [for puppy mills]," says the feisty 55-year-old. "They're appalling. I educate everyone I know." At the top of her list are legislators and other elected officials. She once cornered a senator in a parking lot, who spoke to her for 20 minutes in freezing temperatures. "He knows me now!" she says.
Susan, a native of London who moved to the U.S. from Australia nearly nine years ago, says it's her accent that people remember. After moving to Connecticut (she and her husband brought with them their five dogs and a cat), an unwitting Susan purchased two dogs from pet stores.
Archie, a Lhasa Apso, came from a shop in Milford. "He is a complete bag of nerves," she says. "Now, all the stuff that's wrong with him makes sense. My Chow Chow, Pumba, I bought from a pet store. That's how naïve I was."
Since then, she's turned to adopting animals like Cooper, a skinny Shih Tzu rescued from a hoarder in Tennessee before ending up in a shelter. Last week, Susan drove to LaGuardia airport to pick up a six-year-old puppy mill survivor from South Dakota. She named her Matilda, meaning strength in battle.
"Matilda has no ears," Susan says incredulously, as she describes the miniature Schnauzer. "They were frozen off because she was left outside in a cage for six years during the South Dakota winters."
Susan admits there are days when she wonders if her efforts will pay off. "I think, 'this will never happen in my lifetime.' But then I tell myself, if there are enough of us doing it, we have to make a difference. It's such a huge, corrupt industry. I can't believe I didn't always know about this horrendous business."
To that end, Susan hopes to use Matilda to educate school children about the cruelty and neglect that puppy mill dogs suffer.
"There's a few years left in the old girl yet," says the mother of two grown sons who has embraced full-time advocacy work. "I have to do something with the rest of my life. And this is so close to my heart."
Then she looks down at Matilda, with her missing ears, lying in her arms like a newborn and gazing into her eyes. "She knows I'm her mum," Susan says, softly. "This is my reward."

By joining the ASPCA Advocacy Brigade, you will receive important alerts from us when we need your help to fight for laws against animal cruelty.

Ata Pata Laapata
Comedy, Musical
'Ata Pata Laapata' is an exciting musical satire based on the loopholes and exploited systems of life. Be it the governance, the bureaucratic systems, or the unspoken pattern in which a society runs, Ata Pata Laapata exposes the selfish attitude of people in power; those who have it and those who want it through. Through song and dance, Ata Pata Laapata brings you truth with entertainment.

Comments On May 19, 2015:Great tool at a good price. No more rigging multiple nuts in order to remove studs. Leaves no marks and doesn't slip.

Comments On Jul 09, 2012:As expected, these sockets are great. Much easier and faster than vise grips or a pipe wrench, plus they don't scar up the studs. Can use a torque wrench on them too.
