Recipe by Kelly Phillips
"This was my aunt's recipe for fudge, passed down through the family. It's better than any fudge I've ever had at the Jersey shore, and easy enough to whip up in 15 minutes or so."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

1 (7 ounce) jar
marshmallow creme
1 1/2 cups
white sugar
2/3 cup
evaporated milk
1/4 cup
1/4 teaspoon
2 cups
milk chocolate chips
1 cup
semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup
chopped nuts
1 teaspoon
vanilla extract
***PLEASE READ IF YOU ARE HAVING TROUBLE WITH CRUMBLY, GREASY FUDGE!*** I've used this recipe probably 50 times, and I've had it not turn out twice. The first time I used generic marshmallow cream. I don't recommend using any store brand ingredients in this fudge. The second time I used an enameled cast iron french oven, and it didn't turn out that time, either. Every time I use my calphalon, it turns out great. Also.....work fast! The faster the better. Don't start timing until the mixture is at a full, rolling boil and then reduce the temperature slightly so that it doesn't scorch. Stir the entire five minutes and have the chocolate chips measured out ahead of time so you can dump them in as soon as you turn off the heat and stir like mad. Get the chips fully incorporated and pour immediately. It never fails!
Basically, this represents a terrific, 5-star fudge recipe; I would tweak the instructions, though. First, cook for 6-1/2 minutes, because at 5 minutes, it really needs to be kept in the fridge to maintain the right texture. If you DO prefer the super-creaminess of the 5-minute cooking time, then it will be far less "melty" if, after refrigeration, you cut it into squares and let the squares "air-harden" on racks or trays until the sides are not tacky. (Obviously, this is kind of a pain, so I go with the 6-1/2 minutes!) And finally: This is too much butter. 1 tablespoon works well, and the butter can actually be left out completely if you like.

Absolutely incredible fudge! It is perfectly smooth, creamy, chocolately, and all-around enjoyable. Try putting the marshmallow creme in the microwave for about 15 seconds before adding it to the pan; it will come out of the jar much easier. Though the cooking experience would have been less stressful with one, a candy thermometer really isn't necessary. One tablespoon of butter is just the right amount, and boiling the mixture for around 7 minutes instead of five can assure that the fudge will solidify. Some found that the recipe was a bit too sweet, so taking out 1/4 cup of sugar can tame some of the super-sweetness. Finally, using 2 cups of the semisweet chips and 1 cup of the milk chocolate chips instead of the other way around can make an even richer fudge (especially for those dark chocolate lovers like me). It is THE BEST fudge recipe around, and I am sure that I will make it again and again for years to come.
This was my first time to make fudge and it turned out great! Many people at my dessert buffet said that it was the best fudge they had ever had. It was so creamy - not grainy at all. I have to say, though, that I messed up the first time I tried it. Because I had the marshmallow creme in the very bottom of the pan and I got the heat too high too fast, I burned the marshmallow creme into hard brown chunks! The second time, I kept the temperature at low until it was mixed up well and then I turned the heat up to medium and boiled it. That worked like a charm.
OMG! You really don't need another review to tell you how creamy this fudge is! I do want to offer you some tips in making fudge as it was passed along to me and it does make a difference. Do NOT substiute butter for margarine. Margarine has a higher water content and it will disturb the balance in fudge making. As well, you should also use whole evaporated milk. I found using 2%, 1% or fatfree evaporated milk, I don't get the absolute best results as i do with whole evaporated milk. I start out stirring until well blended on low heat first so that the sugar is completely disolved. This will prevent grainy texture. I've also been told not to make fudge in high humidity or rainy days as the moisture causes the fudge not to set as well which i guess i find that to be true today as it is raining and humidity is slightly high. Therefore, i do find this fudge is too soft. They say making fudge is very moody. This is the best recipe and will be a keeper in my family. Thanks for sharing this recipe!!
Coincidentally, a recipe very close to this is on the back of the Marshmallow Fluff jar. My daughter and I made it last night. The secret is to use a candy thermometer to be sure the fudge reaches the soft ball stage (234 degrees). Ours didn't reach temperature until well after five minutes boiling time, possibly because we kept the flame low to prevent burning. (Using a double boiler, as someone here suggested, is a great idea; we may try that the next time we make this.)
Chocoholics Beware! This stuff is highly addictive! Sinfully rich, decadent, and creamy are just a few of the words that come to mind when describing this fudge. It's so good and so easy to make. I did cut the sugar back by 1/4 cup and used a non-stick pan which I highly recommend. Bring this to a boill slowly, stir constantly and you should have no problems. I lined my 8x8 pan with Reynolds non-stick foil and it came out perfect. This recipe is a definite keeper!
My mother used to make fudge every Christmas, and although I wanted to carry on that tradition the traditional fudge recipes were all so hard, and never seemed to turn out well. I tried this recipe last year, and not only was it quick and super easy, the fudge tasted spectacular! I made 3 kinds (just like Mom!), chocolate fudge with nuts, chocolate mint fudge (added mint extract) and butterscotch fudge with pecans (used butterscotch chips instead of chocolate). My family loved all three kinds, but the butterscotch was rated the best. Thank you Kelly for sharing this recipe! Now I can carry on the tradition of delicious fudge for Christmas.

Southern Marylanders are doing their best to eradicate the snakehead, one delicious bite at a time
By MICHAEL REID
Staff writer
A few minutes after 7 on a chilly, starry night, Clyde Coffey slides his 19-foot Sea Ark into Mattawoman Creek and fires up his generator. Instantly, a bank of seven large halogen lights illuminates several feet into the murky waters.
But there are no rods, reels, lures or bait on the boat. Instead, Coffey picks up a large bow and aims his arrow into the darkness. He's hunting snakeheads.
The Maryland Department of Natural Resources is trying to eradicate the invasive species. It is illegal in Maryland to release a live snakehead back into the water. There are no creel limits and no season. Coffey and his friend, Bill Massey, are only too happy to help.
"Bass is a gamefish and a trophy fish, so they want to eradicate the snakehead, which is no problem for me," Massey said as he notched his arrow. "And waters around here are jam-packed full of snakeheads."
How jam-packed? "The first time my cousin, Todd Murphy, took me out, we saw 47 snakeheads and shot 12," Massey said. "The next night we went out in same area and saw close to 80."
The best time to shoot snakeheads is from April to November, depending on the weather.
"Smaller fish spook easier. Bigger fish are territorial. They [want to] find out what's going on," said Massey, who along with Coffey, Murphy and coworker Robert "Block" Collins have formed the Channa Argus Posse, which refers to the species' Latin name. "Nighttime is a lot better because you can use light. There's not as much boat traffic on the water, but I don't know how long it will be like that. The sport is growing so fast."
"I'd like to see them catch them up and get them out of here," said Robert T. Brown, the president of the St. Mary's Waterman's Association. "They haven't been here that long, but there's more and more numbers. It's hard to say how much damage will be done. It just depends on how much they flourish and how many you have."
Massey and Coffey, who both are Department of Defense firefighters, try to get out a few nights a week and stay on the water anywhere from a few hours to all night, depending on the success.
"I'd heard about snakeheads in pictures and videos, so I just figured I'd give it a try," Coffey said of the sport, which he took up in June. "I shot my first fish [a 33-incher], and that was it." He was hooked.
Massey said he'll take a bow and arrow over a rod-and-reel combo anytime. "The fight the snakehead gives when he has an arrow in him is unbelievable," he said. "It's almost like a fight with a small shark on the end of a hook and line. It is by far the most exciting fight you will have at the end of your line."
The duo don't think the snakehead is doing irreparable harm to the ecosystem. "I think it's just a regular fish," Coffey said. "We see them right beside the bass. You'll see 50 bass to each snakehead."
"To be honest, I don't think [bass fishing] has changed any," Massey said. "There's giant [bass] back there, and they co-habitate together."
But Massey did voice some concern about the future. "It kind of bothers me a bit because there's no other fish that can compete with them when it comes to food," he said of the voracious eater as he scanned the water. "They're eating the bass, the bluegills, the crappie and those are all gamefish that we want to take our kids out to catch."
Gary Fick, a chef at the Blue Dog Saloon in Port Tobacco who regularly serves snakehead, agreed. "When we open them up we see baby rock[fish], baby perch, we see crab eggs, we see baby crabs," he said. "Fishermen will tell you that in the summer where the crabs go to lay their eggs you can almost walk across the water because the snakeheads are so thick in there. They are invasive. No matter who tells you they're not, they are."
Thirty minutes into the trip, Coffey zings an arrow into the murky waters but narrowly misses a good-sized snakehead that was seeking cover under vegetation.
Snakeheads 1, Anglers 0
Joseph Love, a tidal bass manager with DNR, said the fish has an established population in the Potomac, and there's evidence of populations in the Patuxent, Wicomico, Nanticoke and Blackwater rivers. Love said anglers now are much more informed about the species than when the fish first appeared in a Crofton pond in 2002.
"When we started out with this, I talked to many anglers who were unable to recognize the fish for what it was," he said. "And if they did catch one they'd often cut the line and not even handle it."
Coffey and Massey are more than willing to handle a snakehead but do not get the chance to do so on this night, though they do shoot a goldfish and a grass carp, two other invasive species. But they already have plenty of snakeheads in their freezers at home. They know well what others are just finding out.
Serving them up
It's a busy Friday night at the Blue Dog Saloon as customers line up outdoors for a cherished table. The bar is packed, and a band is slated to play in an hour. Among the appetizers on the menu are "snake bites," chunks of snakehead served with a melon coulis. In the entree section is something called "Nanjemoy sea bass." It's a snakehead fillet served over fingerling potatoes with andouille sausage and onion hash, all drizzled with a red pepper sour cream.
"A lot of people when we first opened couldn't get over the name of it," Fick said tongue in cheek. "A lot of people said it tasted just like Chilean sea bass, and most fishermen have caught them in Nanjemoy Creek."
David Spencer of Hughesville said his first encounter with a snakehead was when he saw a tiny one inching along a road on his family's farm. "It was big enough to go, 'Oh, my God, what the hell is that?'" said Spencer, 31, a clinical massage therapist. "It's a fish with legs."
But his taste buds have trumped his initial disgust. "The snakehead may be a little derogatory, and it may have ruined our waters, but it's delicious," Spencer said as he dined with his fiancee, Narda Soto. "It's always good here. It's like rockfish but more moist. I like it better than rockfish. It's the best $10 you'll ever spend."
J.G. Saunders, who graduated from The Calverton School in 2011 and works at the Chalk Point Power Plant, said the flavor was "so much better than white perch and rockfish put together."
Coffey said, "A buddy at work caught one, so we just tried it. I would say it's similar to rockfish, white perch. A real mild fish, no fishy taste."
Massey said he would put the taste up against that of any other species. "You will not find another taste like that in your life," he said. "You can take your favorite fish and put a snakehead next to it, and your favorite fish will pretty much be on the back burner."
Fick, 51, said he goes through about 150 pounds of fish weekly.
"It's a very mild flavor and firm," he said during a brief respite from his kitchen duties. "You can blacken, saute, fry, broil, grill or roast it. It's a versatile fish, and it holds its moisture very well. There's no need to marinate it. It's a very mild-flavor fish, so you don't have to hide the fishiness or gaminess in it."
Brenda Lee of La Plata has been a server at the Blue Dog off and on for close to 20 years. "Before it was even on the menu, people were afraid of the fish,'" she said. "And it's a scary fish. It looks like a barracuda. One gentleman was almost appalled when he read it [on the menu] and was like, 'Oh, no' and had that look on his face, but he ate every last bit of it. It's like a lot of things: If you can't beat 'em, eat 'em."
Spencer said more restaurants — a quick online check indicated just a handful in Maryland sell it — should start putting it on their menus because "it would get more snakeheads out of our waters, which would be beneficial."
This fish needs a press agent
The snakehead has received plenty of bad press, thanks in large part to Hollywood. Shortly after the fish was discovered in a Crofton pond in 2002 and people learned of its unusual traits such as its ability to breathe air and move from pond to pond, the films began.
In 2004, "Snakehead Terror" starring Bruce Boxleitner and model Carol Alt was released, stating the movie was based on true events with a trailer that warned, "Fear is coming up for air." Another trailer, with actors wielding shotguns, cautioned, "When a horror from the deep hunts on land, there is no place to hide."
Scarier still was the release two years later of "Swarm of the Snakehead," which featured a man with several scantily clad women adrift on a raft, all menaced by a giant snakehead attacking from below.
The movie's synopsis said the hero returns to his fictional Maryland hometown of Barrow Springs, only to discover that "an awfully dangerous breed of snakehead fish makes this picturesque little city its natural habitat, as well — and is thirsty for some blood. They added the snakehead, "was a remnant of a long-forgotten U.S. Army experiment from the '60s. Initially, it was happy to feed off local cats and dogs, but now it craves human flesh, as well."
"A lot of that is unfortunate," Love, from DNR, said. "I think in order to sell tickets or to get people to watch shows, you have to add a sensational aspect to the fish, and they did a really good job of building that sensationalism early on."
But Love said Hollywood's sensationalism might have done some good. "It's helped a little bit in getting the message out [because] even if [people are] just familiar with the Hollywood film, that's a point of conversation," he said. "That's a common thread from where we can build better information, so it's been helpful in that regard. But it has been difficult because there's still that sensationalism built into their head. I'd hate to think they're running around with all this misinformation in their head. Hopefully if folks watch those movies and are interested in the fish, they'll Google it and find some [factual] information."
"There's not much you can do [about the snakehead problem] once they get into the ecosystem," said Brown, who fishes Port Tobacco Creek from January through March for gizzard shad, which he ships to Louisiana watermen to use as crawfish bait.
But Love also said eating the tasty fish could potentially backfire. "One of the ways is if the demand ever exceeds the supply — and it hasn't happened yet — but if it does then I think it might give some unethical individuals reason for stocking this fish everywhere, and we certainly don't want to promote that," he said. "Right now it's beneficial because there are plenty of them in the Potomac, so I think folks can meet the demand that we have. But if we ever flipped, I think we'd end up with a problem."

Yesterday I was doing some typing on my keyboard, when I found that I could not type a capital T with either shift key. I tried a different user account, and even rebooted into Snow Leopard (was using Lion) to no avail. I tried a USB keyboard, and it works fine. I don't understand what is wrong because the shift key still works, and the t key still works, just not at the same time. Any Ideas?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Ask Different is a question and answer site for power users of Apple hardware and software. It's 100% free, no registration required.
I did that once by accidentally setting an application hot key to be Shift-(and some letter key). Did you recently change hot key settings? If not, did you install something recently that may have had hot keys. If all else fails, try rebooting in Safe Boot Mode (hold down the Shift key on startup until the gear starts spinning), log in and see if you can type. When you are done in Safe Boot, restart w/o any keys.
It has mysteriously started to work again, along with two other problem keys, B and G (they worked with the right shift, but not the left). Thanks for all the help, and hopefully this doesn't happen again.

Completely updated, including a special section on social media.
There are over 100 books about writing to sell online. There is only one book about writing to communicate... about writing to "PREsell."
PREselling is the critical component in a process that has been proven to succeed by (so many - remove the "so many") thousands of small business people...
Content Traffic PREsell Monetize

And That Is What MYCPS! Will Do For You
The information inside Make Your Content PREsell! is critical to the success of any online business. It shows you how to write about what you know and love, how to establish your voice, how to create a site that sparks.
Think you cannot do that? Think you cannot write?
Wrong, anyone can. You just need a key to unlock your keyboard. After all, you can talk and communicate in day-to-day-life, right? MYCPS! will unlock your keyboard.
And the lessons are the same, no matter what kind of small business you plan or already have online. If you want to create a pure information site, do it with greatness, like this. Or do you want to sell sell hard goods? Or maybe e-goods or services? No matter why you're online, no matter what your current skills and goals...
You just need to know how to communicate.
"I am now, officially, the Best Storyteller in Ireland! I found much of the confidence to do this and to express myself in this way thanks to SBI. It encourages us to speak with our own "unique voice". I didn't have one of those till I started my first SBI site. Now, my "voice" has helped me find and define my personality and the life I want to lead."- Paul O'Brien (isometric-training.com)
Relax... Everybody Can Write To Connect!
There is no mystery to good writing. No secret society. No smoke and mirrors.
It's just a matter of undoing the damage inflicted upon you by your schooling... and unlocking what's already inside you.

"This book is absolutely perfect for someone starting out online. Read this, and you'll avoid all the mistakes so many of the rest of us have struggled through over the years.
But this book is also for everyone else who writes or edits content online. It doesn't matter how sophisticated you are, or how huge and successful your site may be... the way in which Ken presents and expresses the information does a wonderful job of reminding us what really matters, and what doesn't."- Nick Usborne (excessvoice.com)
- How to design a clean and intuitive website that "sets the mood" for business
- The importance of knowing your customer and what she wants
- The A-B-C of how to write for an online audience
- AHow to use social media channels like Facebook to build an even closer bond with your visitors
- An introduction to C T P M... a process that has helped tens of thousands of ordinary people write their own paycheck.
The educational system has NOT improved over the decades, either. I encourage you to share MYCPS! with your teenaged and older children, to teach them how to write TO COMMUNICATE. This is simply a critical skill set that EVERYONE needs, but that is not being taught.
A Bit Of Background
As the concept of C T P M evolved, it became clear that SBI!'s all-in-one business-building system makes every step of that powerful, natural process totally do-able. In short, the 80+ SBI! "programmed" modules and sub-modules eliminate the technical or tedious jobs so that you can focus on building your BUSINESS.
But one of the key steps of the process, PREselling, has no "programmed module." It requires you to own a key skill. So...
This book shows you exactly how to write to PREsell. No programmer in the world can build a module that will write effectively for you (thank goodness -- if a computer program could write for you, you would not be necessary, would you?)
I've learned how to "PREsell-write" during the many years that I've been working on the Net. I did it the hard way, through trial and error. I've learned a lot more from our customers and their feedback... and through their results.
It did not all come at once. From those early days, right up to today, I continue to learn as I go along... improving content, OVERdelivering what our customers want, letting one's own voice flow more naturally. And now...
I've put everything I know about this topic, and all that I've learned from thousands of SBIers during this remarkable SBI! voyage, into this book. So you can "have it all come at once."
No... you won't become a brilliant writer overnight. But anyone (with average IQ and some motivation) can indeed write effectively. It starts by dropping the baggage of what you've "mislearned" (or never learned). Read this book -- MYCPS! is crucial for your online success.
And then practice what it preaches. Only practice-practice-practice will deliver the actual benefits. Like SBI! itself, this book is a mere catalyst. It's up to you to wring all the benefits out of it.
All the best,
President, SiteSell.com

Candy Hearts Bouquet for Valentine's Day:
Valentine's Day is approaching and boy have I got a fun idea that would be great for a school party for the kids and teacher. Brach's create your own conversation hearts allows you to personalize these fun candy hearts with an edible food coloring pen. This is a fabulous idea because I know I have personally wanted to add my own wording to suit just my husband or just one son or a friend. Truett really had fun writing all this friend's names on a heart. He thought it was the coolest thing ever actually and he even drew pictures on them.
Truett and I thought it would be fun to create a small candy hearts bouquet using the new conversation hearts. I wrote #1 Teacher on it, per Truett's instructions. Have fun with this! The possibilities are endless and I know I mentioned for school parties, but this would be a cheerful fun way to brighten the days in your friend's and family's lives.
Container (we used the little cups found in the Valentine's Day section at Wal-Mart)
Conversation Hearts
Cake Pop Stick (or something similar)
On a piece of conversation heart, create your own message or word. We used #1 Teacher.
Add a few pieces of conversation candy hearts to a plastic baggie and pound until broken into small pieces.
Ice your cookie with the standard icing found at the store.
Add your heart with the word on it in the center, followed by a sprinkling and soft pat of the broken pieces.
On the opposite side of the cookie, add a glop of icing to the back and place your stick on it, making sure it's covered well.
Refrigerate for a few minutes to harden the icing.
Add 'cookie pop' to the container and fill with remaining conversation hearts.
Valentine's Day Posey Pops:
These Valentine's Day Posey Pops would make a perfect Valentine for the little girls! With just $5, you can make several of these Valentine's crafts. You can give one to each little girl or make a whole bouquet for the teacher. It takes no time at all and with all the beautiful themed papers out there, you could create an amazing flower using two different sheets of paper, creating petals.
Supplies Needed:
Solid or themed paper of your choice (I used scrapbook paper)
Hole Puncher
Glue Stick
Ribbon (optional)
Container (optional)
Fold paper and create half a heart. I cut out one heart and traced it to make sure the other hearts matched in size. I used 4 per flower.
Stack hearts together and punch a hole towards bottom of heart.
Around the hole, put just a little glue using you glue stick (or glue of choice). This will help keep the 'petals' in place. Do this for every petal you place on.
Take your dum-dum suckers and place through holes, creating the center of your flower.
This is optional but I tied a green ribbon underneath on the 'stem' to secure position. Plus, it gives the 'leaves' look.
You can write on them if giving as a single Valentine or you can create a bouquet like I did. I filled the cup with candy hearts and stuck the flowers in it.
White Chocolate Dipped Strawberries:
We made these white chocolate dipped strawberries for our anniversary but I also think Valentine's Day is another fitting occasion to make these for. It's super simple and you can totally have fun with it by using different chocolates or glazing with something. Enjoy!
• Strawberries
• White Chocolate
• Chocolate Syrup optional
1. Melt your white chocolate. I added a little bit of milk and whisked until creamy and smooth.
2. Dip your strawberry half or all the way into chocolate.
3. Refrigerate so that chocolate hardens.
4. Drizzle with chocolate syrup and serve when ready. Keep in fridge until then.

'The Goon' Movie Kickstarter Campaign
Yet another successful crowdfunding effort on the way through Kickstarter.
This one's for "The Goon" from Blur Studios in Venice, California. The project's been around for a while based on the popular comic book. They're attempting to raise $400,000 in 30 days. With 26 days left they're already at $118,571 through 1,631 backers. A great beginning as they're well on their way towards reaching their goal and going beyond it.
Here's the link to campaign...
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/624 ... his-sucker
And here's the promotional video...
Re: 'The Goon' Movie Kickstarter Campaign
I'd like learn more about what goes on behind the scenes. Promotions wise. Like how many people do they have pushing the fund raiser. Where do they get the majority of their contributions from. etc. its cool to say, put a kickstarter campaign together, cool video, what have you..but I'd like to hear more stories about the hustle behind the hustle.
Re: 'The Goon' Movie Kickstarter Campaign
As of this writing they're at $133,744 with 24 days to go. They're 20% into the campaign at 33% of their $400K goal so they look to be on target to make it.
From my observations on Kickstarter campaigns the most successful ones are those that involve projects with a substantial following already established and that have good rewards for their backers. Campaigns that are used to pre-sell products do well too.
So let's say you've got a popular online comic and a supportive community and fan base. If you set a realistic goal a little on the modest side and have something appealing to offer your backers you'll do okay.
Promotion is very important. Newsletters are essential as well as an online community that you've developed. Email blasts, Facebook, Twitter, whatever is at your disposal.
This is the way of the future. Crowdfunding is here to stay. I bet you'll see even major studios getting involved with it at some point. Blur Studios is behind this one and I expect there'll be a lot more studios taking aim at their fan base to raise the funding they need that they would typically go to investors for. Crowdfunding is a great way to raise money without getting involved with investment bankers, financial institutions, venture capitalists, etc. All the old guard that were essential for funding projects. In many ways they're becoming as obsolete as painting animation cels by hand.
I think there'll be a place for them as far as short term funding for a Kickstarter campaign. Providing the financing to organize a campaign. Then when the campaign is funded they're paid back and you don't necessarily have to cut them in for the equity on your project. At least not on the level that you would expect from before the days of crowdfunding.
And this is still new! These are the early days of this system. No telling where it could go from here. Bright future for independents! This is really helping out.
Re: 'The Goon' Movie Kickstarter Campaign
Here at AnimationNation, we welcome creative individuals and groups who have a Kickstarter campaign in the works or are engaged in a crowdfunding endeavor.
We always have and we always will.
Unfortunately, the same can't be said for the psychotic critics and historians we have in our industry.
Take for example good ol Amid Amidi at Cartoonbrew who's made it a long standing policy of his site NOT to promote Kickstarter campaigns. Unless of course he finds an opportunity to manufacture a controversy out of it as he has with this campaign involving The Goon.
Once again, the critic who has no shame and even less self respect has taken it upon himself to launch a crusade against an enemy who does not exist.
Instead of supporting Kickstarter campaigns and crowdfunding for artists who are trying to get their independent projects going, he chooses to indulge in his typically ignorant, misinformed and misleading hate fest which has become his trademark. He exchanges his credibility for traffic, a strategy that has worked very well for him over the years in spite of the fact that more and more people are figuring out what this guy is all about.
Amid Amidi's attack on the The Goon Kickstarter campaign.
Blur's Tim Miller responds.
Why is the yellow journalism of Amid Amidi tolerated by our community? Why does our community put up with someone who is not an artist yet behaves as if he has infallibility. He won't promote your Kickstarter projects but he'll find any reason he can to tear something down. Why do you guys put up with this? Can't you see he's playing our community?
In his own way he's just as bad as an executive. Animation artists embrace their abusers and attack their own brethren. Stop the dysfunction and stop tolerating these guys who don't have your best interests in mind.
If they won't promote your independent crowdfunding projects and Kickstarter campaigns on Cartoonbrew then what good are they to us? News oriented sites are one thing. Op-eds based upon ignorance, bias, jealousy, hatred, misinformation and misrepresentation are something else altogether.
Stand up for yourselves people and stop supporting the non-artists that don't support YOU.
Re: 'The Goon' Movie Kickstarter Campaign
I'm hoping that The Goon campaign on Kickstarter will be successful so these guys can shove it up Cartoonbrew's ass. Looks like that may be the case as they're closing in on their goal of $400K.
Currently at $358,340 with 66 hours to go.

There's more Goon Kickstarter video to watch...
Re: 'The Goon' Movie Kickstarter Campaign
In just 7 hours time since my last post on the topic pledges have increased by nearly $14,000 to $372,127 with 2 days and 11 hours left to the campaign. Blur is in good position and on target for reaching their $400K goal. Rooting for these guys to make it!
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/624 ... his-sucker
Re: 'The Goon' Movie Kickstarter Campaign
Score another victory for the good guys!
Creators defeat the haters!
Here's something for the negatives to suck on along with all the studios who've said 'no' to this project.
The community says 'YES'...
"The Goon" Kickstarter campaign is successful!
With 6,754 backers pledging $400,589 with 43 hours to go!

One of the men responsible for sparking the recent violent protests throughout the Middle East, in regard to a film denigrating the Prophet Muhammad, is from Fairfax County.
Morris Sadek of Chantilly is an Egyptian Christian who belongs to a sect of Christianity called the Coptic Orthodox Church.
On his website, www.nationalamericancopticassembly, Sadek says he was counsel for Middle East Affairs, Advocates International in Fairfax from 1999 to 2000, which promoted professional ethics, conflict resolution and human rights in Egypt.
Sadek said he translated the controversial film, �Innocence of Muslims,� into Arabic and then sent it to Egyptian media sources.
According to The Holy Synod of the Coptic Orthodox Church, the Coptic Church is based on the teachings of St. Mark, who brought Christianity to Egypt during the reign of Roman emperor Nero in the first century. The church split from traditional Christianity in the fifth century in regard to Jesus Christ�s divinity, and today the religion is practiced by about 10 percent of Egypt�s 80 million-plus residents.
Sadek was unable to be reached for comment, but told news organization Reuters that he wanted people to react to an early part of the film, which depicts an angry mob of Islamists attacking a Christian clinic while Egyptian police allegedly do nothing to stop them.
�I am only [leading] a Coptic organization that promoted the film. I am only interested in the first part about persecution of Copts,� Sadek told Reuters.
But The Holy Synod of the Coptic Orthodox Church has released a statement condemning both the film and its message.
�[The film's] release at this specific time is part of a malicious campaign targeting defamation of religions, aiming to divide the people, most notably the Egyptian people," the statement said. "The defamation of religion, its symbols and teachings is incompatible with Christian values, the teaching of Jesus Christ and the apostles as is demonstrated in the Bible � so those who participate in such a production, display or promotion of such a film should be held fully accountable for operating outside of Christian principles and church laws."
St. Mark Coptic Orthodox Church on Braddock Road in Fairfax said Sadek might have attended there, but it does not keep records of regular attendance.
�We do not keep track of visitors,� said the church�s communications director, Ihab Marcus. �We are one of the largest Coptic churches in the country and have thousands of visitors per year. He may have been one of them, but in terms of regular attendance, I don�t have a clue.�
Another D.C.-based Coptic organization, Coptic Solidarity, called Sadek an inflammatory maverick.
"Mr. Sadek is a maverick who belongs to a very narrow, extreme current of Coptic activists," the group said in a statement. "He likes to use inflammatory and abrasive language to insult Muslims and Islam. As his actions agitate more the Islamic extremists, some people wonder if he is not in fact working to fulfill their agenda."
Sadek told Reuters he is sorry for any deaths that have resulted from the Middle East protests.

You wouldn't be able to use your queue for this, but you could set publish date/times for the posts you'd like Tumblr to post for you next year.
You'll need to select "Publish on" where it normally says "Publish now" and you'll need to specify a date/time as well.

Did you know that the common food additive Carmine is made from boiled cochineal insect carcasses? Carmine is added to certain flavors of juice, candy, and yogurt to enhance their redness. It is also a source of color for many red-hued lipsticks. This fact prompted me to check the label on my lipgloss and guess what? I'm wearing bug juice.

Revision as of 05:17, 5 June 2007
Beaver and Steve (short for The Unfeasible Adventures of Beaver and Steve) is a popular webcomic by James Turner. The comic, which debuted on September 10, 2004 and has continued since on a semi-weekly basis, chronicles the bizarre and humorous escapades of Steve, a green reptilian creature, and the aptly-named Beaver.
This wiki started off as an experiment, but now serves the basis for the BnS comic transcription search engine, available from the archive page, as well as the side-project of translating the comics to Finnish, French, Polish, and Swedish (and possibly to other languages as well, in the future).
And aside from that, it also functions as any other wiki, containing transcriptions, fun facts, references, connections and various other bits of information many might miss while just browsing the comics the "traditional" way.
Here are a few links to get you started:
- The archive page - a list of all comics.
- Comic Wiki Page Creator - a PHP script to make the transcribing of comics in the established format much easier.
- Comic Translator - another PHP tool to help with translating comics. Anyone with enough time and knowledge of the target language can give it a shot!
- A list of all characters
- Onomatopoeias - a script listing all the documented onomatopoeias in a more reader-friendly format, ordered by "popularity".
- A list of wanted pages - before creating an article for one of these, you might want to check if there are any similar articles out there.
- Recurring Themes - This page wasn't linked to from anywhere else, so I put this link here. Huzzah!
If you're new to wikis, a good place to start would be the MediaWiki User's Guide.
Also, here is a link to Beaver and Steve Wikipedia article.

Portland, Ore. -- A new Oregon Public Broadcast poll shows Oregonians appear to be leaning towards legalizing recreational marijuana.
The last time Oregonians voted on legalizing marijuana was in 2012. The measure failed, garnering only 47 percent of the vote. But a new poll by DHM Research finds that 54 percent of voters now support legalization for adults aged 21 and older.
In DHM's last poll, a year and a half ago, only 43 percent were in favor of legalization. There are a number of different campaigns with different approaches trying to gather signatures for the November ballot. Momentum appears to favor legalization.

John Hanson Briscoe died at his home in Hollywood on New Year's Day after a lengthy battle with cancer. He was 79.
Briscoe, born and raised in Leonardtown, was a circuit court judge in St. Mary's County from 1986 to 2002, following a career as a state legislator. He was elected in 1962 as a Maryland delegate on a Democratic reform ticket with J. Frank Raley Jr., who was elected to the Maryland for state senate.
Briscoe went on to become speaker of the Maryland House of Delegates, a leadership post he held from 1973 to 1979.
Briscoe chose to retire from politics and returned to his law practice. He was selected as circuit court judge in December 1985.
"He was a true modern-day statesman and he'll truly be missed," said Del. John Bohanan (D-St. Mary's).
As president of the Historic Sotterley Foundation, he was dedicated to Sotterley's establishment as a National Historic Landmark and its preservation as a vital public museum and educational site. He also served as president of the Historic St. Mary's City Commission and as president of the St. Mary's County Historical Society.
As a long time member of the Lexington Park Rotary Club, he served as announcer of the oyster shucking contest at the St. Mary's County Oyster Festival for several decades.
As a legislator, he was instrumental in the passage of state civil rights laws, the expansion of Point Lookout State Park and the creation of Greenwell State Park and the College of Southern Maryland. He took pride in his environmental efforts and accomplishments throughout the state. He spent several years raising cattle and tending to his family farm in Hollywood and was an avid fisherman and hunter.
Family will receive friends on Tuesday, Jan. 7 from 4 to 8 p.m., with prayers at 7 p.m., at St. John's Regis Catholic Church in Hollywood. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated by the Rev. Raymond Schmidt on Wednesday, January 8, 2014 at 10:00 a.m. Interment will follow at St. Aloysius Cemetery in Leonardtown, MD.
Memorial contributions may be made in John Hanson Briscoe's name to Historic Sotterley Inc. , P.O. Box 67, Hollywood, MD or online at www.sotterley.org

The Fins will never move. Stop it.
The Fins will never move. Stop it.
Sun life will never be a top notch stadium. Being designed as a multi purpose stadium was a mistake since football is the only tenants in the stadium with no more baseball and soccer there. Sun life will never compete with all these state of the art stadiums on with these upgrades.
I prersonally never though the stadium was as bad as everyone makes it out to be - at least compared to other NFL cities, our stadium isnt that bad. My issue has always been the stadium location, the traffic, and the attendance.
The stadium isn't that bad compared to dumps like the Black Hole and Qualcomm Stadium...
In the phins stadium case, if the tax payers only have to chip in for a portion, it would actually be benificial for everyone as the stadium will continue to attract Super Bowls and other major events that bring tons of outside money to the community.
Bill Belichick on "putting the tape on"
And ppl hate on Ross...You cant take it with you bro...Might as well spend it now.
While I don't have any firm evidence that hosting Super Bowls actually has a positive impact on the local economy (I've seen research that indicates that it really has no benefit), if Ross is willing to put up 80 to 90 percent of the cash, then the county should jump on it. There's a huge, huge difference between "The team is going to front 90% of the money and we'd just like the county to help get us over the hump" and "PLEASE BUILD US A NEW STADIUM SO THAT OUR MOUTH BREATHING OWNER CAN BRING IN WASHED UP OVERPRICED FREE AGENTS AND THEN HAVE ANOTHER FIRE SALE AFTER THE SEASON ENDS IN A TRAINWRECK."
And... Nubs is right. Even though the team isn't moving, having the county pitch in a little to the operations cost of the new stadium could go a long way to making the team a more attractive situation for a good ownership group when Steve decides to start thinking about estate management.

Resin beads are beautiful and sizable, yet light in weight, making them great option when you want larger beads in your design without all of the weight that usually comes with them. The colors vary in shade, with about three shades included in the strand, adding to their usefulness.

I speak the truth, I really like Eli as a person and a player. I defended him for years when he was underrated but now he's a bit overrated as you need to be consistently great to be an elite QB. He's just not there and Sunday was another example, there's no way that game should have been close.
Junc is like every other jet fan i've ever encountered. Annoying, opinionated, wrong and a **** sucker

Comments On Sep 03, 2012:This is by far the best chain I've ever ran. VFR's are typically tough on chains with the single sided swing arm. Been running this chain for over 6 months and 15,000 miles haven't had to do any adjustments so far. just normal cleaning and lube. EXCELLENT PRODUCT! and Rocky Mountain ATV had the best price.

Comments On Oct 12, 2011:Sturdy. Looks and feels like a quality chain. The side plates look like some sort of chrome or nickel plating. In any case, it looks good. It comes with a rivet-type master link. Much better, in my opinion, but make sure you have the tools to install it.

There's nothing quite like a put-together power couple to give us an instant spark of inspiration. Dolce & Gabbana, Ray and Charles Eames, Yoko and John — we really fancy ourselves a dynamic duo 'round here. And if the trusty adage that good things come in pairs proves true, you are in for a very special treat.
Because nothing is quite as aww-inducing as a creative couple collaborating on their craft, we booked it up north to Novato to seek out the husband-and-wife styling team of Jasmine Hamed and Justin Segall. The hip Marin residents work as one to outfit a slew of bodies for top-notch clients like Adidas, BMW, and Sephora, and, naturally, their pad is just as expertly styled. To prove it, we took a tour of their modern casa, lush garden, and eye-catching closets. Prepare for a heavy dose of California dreaming.

Moschino / Fall 2012 Ready-to-Wear
Search a show by:
A bright-blue satin cape isn't an army-green flak jacket, and ruffled short skirts are far from standard issue. Welcome to the Moschino military, where the troops have more in common with toy soldiers than actual ones and the only enemy is boredom. But you didn't expect a house like this, built on whimsy and irreverence, to interpret this season's military trend with the sobriety of a top general, did you? Designer Rosella Jardini effectively cut those rigorous ties by sending out a swinging parade of models in Grenadier Guard–style coats in pop colors, quilted jackets with major brass buttons, and sparkly, shimmy-ready dresses. And really, save for the ten-gallon hats and enormous taffeta bows in the hair (every Moschino show needs something unexpected), the whole collection was quite wearable. The white marching band-style jacket with black flowers wouldn't look out of step over something simple at lunch, and the teeny tank dresses could be worn with a pair of the straight pants that have been everywhere (or simply by themselves, if you have the legs for them). The party dresses, with their short tiers of marabou were only fun, and they were even better in the rich black-and-gold floral embroidery. To top everything off, that hard-working staple of the Moschino uniform: a gold doorknocker earring.

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama Tuesday called on Congress to avoid deep, across-the-board spending cuts looming March 1 under a "sequestration" mechanism in budget law and to take a balanced approach to America's debt problems.
If sequestration happens, hundreds of thousands of Defense Department civilian employees could be furloughed and readiness of the military force will plummet, Pentagon officials have said.
The American economy is poised to make progress in 2013, the president said in remarks at the White House today, but sequestration could put an end to any forward movement.
"We've seen the effects that political dysfunction can have on our progress," Obama said. "The drawn-out process for resolving the 'fiscal cliff' hurt consumer confidence. The threat of massive automatic cuts [has] already started to affect business decisions."
While it is critical for the U.S. government to cut wasteful spending, "we can't just cut our way to prosperity," Obama said.
"Deep, indiscriminate cuts to things like education and training, energy and national security will cost us jobs, and it will slow down our recovery," he added.
The president emphasized that sequestration does not have to happen.
"For all of the drama and disagreements we've had over the past few years, Democrats and Republicans have still been able to come together and cut the deficit by more than $2.5 trillion through a mix of spending cuts and higher rates on taxes for the wealthy," he said.
"A balanced approach has achieved more than $2.5 trillion in deficit reduction," the president continued. "That's more than halfway towards the $4 trillion in deficit reduction that economists and elected officials from both parties believe is required to stabilize our debt."
Obama called on Congress to finish the job with a balanced mix of spending cuts and more tax reform. Though he favors a balanced approach that will solve the problem, the president said, he is realistic.
"I know that a full budget may not be finished before March 1," he said. "And unfortunately, that's the date when a series of harmful automatic cuts to job-creating investments in defense spending … are scheduled to take effect."
If Congress cannot act immediately on a bigger package, Obama said, "then I believe that they should at least pass a smaller package of spending cuts and tax reforms that would delay the economically damaging effects of the sequester for a few more months until Congress finds a way to replace these cuts with a smarter solution."
There's no reason "that the jobs of thousands of Americans who work in national security or education or clean energy — not to mention the growth of the entire economy — should be put in jeopardy just because folks in Washington couldn't come together," he added. "Our economy right now is headed in the right direction, and it will stay that way, as long as there aren't any more self-inflicted wounds coming out of Washington."
