John Ditlev-Simonsen
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
|Olympic medal record
|1936 Berlin
|8 metre class
John Peder Ditlev-Simonsen (October 18, 1898 – January 10, 2001) was a Norwegian sailor who competed in the 1936 Summer Olympics. In 1936 he won the silver medal as crew member of the Norwegian boat Silja in the 8 metre class event.[1]
During the Second World War Ditlev-Simonsen was amongst a number of prominent Norwegians arrested as hostages by the Germans during their occupation of Norway. Following his arrest on 26 April 1943 he was transferred to Grini concentration camp two days later and given prisoner number 7449, being released on 5 May 1945.[2] His brother Olaf was also arrested and held as a hostage by the Germans.[3]

Celebrity Eclipse Cruise Review by Cynthia Johnson: Eclipsed by Eclipse
Overall Member Rating
Eclipsed by Eclipse
Destination: Canary Islands
Embarkation: Southampton
From the moment of embarkation to disembarkation - it was sheer pleasure. The Staff could not do enoough for you . The "Can Do" attitude was there for all too see, with politeness, smiles and integrity.
The ship itself is superb and I can understand other ships in the group being Solsticized. Although the design of the ship was large and the amount of people on it many. you did not feel that the ship was crowded and there was plenty of "your own space" to move around in.
The restaurants are many and varied and I challenge anybody not too find something to suit them. We were in Aqua Class and Blu was our restaurant - the attention and service given was superb as was the food which was different, innovative and well thought out.
The various bars around the ship each had there own characters with the Ensemble Lounge being just one of our favourites. Michaels Club always a winner especially for a nice breakfast. For the Elite Members of the Captains Club - More the facilities were second to non and meeeting old friends made it even better.
The places we called at, we had been to several times before , so it was good to see them again and revisit old haunts and discover new ones.
We met friends in Southampton for Dinner, friends in Lanzarote (who live their) for Lunch,relations in Lisbon for sightseeing, friends on the way home in Maidenhead - so what was an 11 day cruise turned out to be more like a 15 day holiday.
Although we have been on a number of cruises now with RCI & Celebrity and they have all been good - this is one of the cruises which we will be talking about for a long time. Less

In this paper the peak, mean, and RMS values of the component currents of a three-phase single-switch discontinuous inductor current mode boost rectifier are calculated analytically. The values are given in rated form in dependency on the output power and on the ratio of output voltage to the amplitude of the mains voltage. Furthermore, the influence of the voltage transfer ratio on the shape of the mains currents and on the power factor of the system is analyzed. The theoretical analysis is verified by digital simulation and a good consistency is achieved. Finally, the approach of the converter dimensioning based on the graphical representation of the calculation results is described and illustrated using a specific example. The correctness of the dimensioning is verified by measurements on a laboratory model

Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
Giving the Body and Blood of Jesus to a brother in the Lord through a border fence speaks prophetically of the saving mission of the Church. The Border is a new periphery. The Church is the Body of Christ, called into the whole world to continue His redemptive mission. Those who are joined in Jesus Christ are joined in a solidarity which speaks beyond politics. Sadly, even some in Catholic media circles, did not get the message. One Catholic Aggregation site wrongly insinuated the act was somehow an inappropriate political use of holy communion. I was truly distressed to read such an incorrect "spin". The act was prophetic and pastoral. It was another demonstration of the prophetic church of the New Franciscans. Get ready, there is much more to come.
Cardinal Sean Patrick O'Malley O.F.M. Cap.
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
4/8/2014 (2 years ago)
Published in U.S.
Keywords: Border Bishops, solidarity, love of preference, preferential option, Archbishop José H. Gomez, Cardinal Seán Patrick O'Malley, Pope Francis, Nogales, Arizona, social doctrine, Deacon Keith Fournier
CHESAPEAKE,VA (Catholic Online) - In February of 2012, right before the consistory where he would be chosen as the successor of Peter, then Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio gave an interview to the Vatican Insider. He shared from the heart about his missionary mindset and his love for the poor, in all of their manifestations. He also sent the signal of what has become what I am calling the New Franciscan papacy.
Below I offer two of the questions and answers. The entire interview is worth reading as Pope Francis begins his second year pastoring the universal church. The interview signaled his conviction concerning the holiness and character of Bishops and his insights into the necessary reform of the curia. Any observer of the first year of this Franciscan Papacy will see that he is implementing what he signaled.
As with all Popes, the choice of the name he took upon assuming the Chair of Peter is significant. With this Pope, it was particularly prophetic. He took the name of the little poor man of Assisi, Francis. The one to whom the Lord appeared and said "Go and Rebuild my Church which you can see is falling down in ruins."
That humble servant named Francis Bernadone did what the Lord asked him in the thirteenth century. As a result, both the Church and the world were changed. The Church of Francis of Assisi was not unlike the Church which Pope Francis serves. The world of Francis of Assisi was not unlike the world into which Pope Francis is called to bring the message of the Gospel in its fullness.
The missionary manner and prophetic actions of Francis of Assisi are a key to understanding the missionary manner and prophetic actions of this new Francis for our time. Here are the questions and responses:
What do you make of the Pope's decision to call for a year of faith and his insistence on the new evangelization?
Benedict XVI has insisted on the renewal of faith being a priority and presents faith as a gift that must be passed on, a gift to be offered to others and to be shared as a gratuitous act. It is not a possession, but a mission. This priority indicated by the Pope has a commemorative purpose: through the Year of Faith we remember the gift we have received. And there are three pillars to this: the memory of having been chosen, the memory of the promise that was made to us and the alliance that God has forged with us. We are called to renew this alliance, our belonging to the community of God's faithful.
What does evangelization mean in a context such as that of Latin America?
The context is that which emerged from the fifth conference of Latin American bishops, held in Aparecida, in 2007. It called us to undertake a continental mission; the entire continent is a missionary state. Plans were and continue to be made, but the paradigmatic aspect remains: all ordinary activities of the Church take place in view of the mission. This signifies very strong tensions between centre and periphery, between parish and district. We need to come out of ourselves and head for the periphery.
We need to avoid the spiritual sickness of a Church that is wrapped up in its own world: when a Church becomes like this, it grows sick. It is true that going out onto the street implies the risk of accidents happening, as they would to any ordinary man or woman. But is the Church stays wrapped up in itself, it will age. And if I had to choose between a wounded Church that goes out onto the streets and a sick withdrawn Church, I would definitely choose the first one.
Francis is a prophetic Pope with a profoundly moving love for the poor. This is the "love of preference" or "preferential option" which Catholic Social Doctrine expounds,made visible in the flesh, with a bighearted smile. It is manifested in everything this Pope does. He speaks through words and deeds. That kind of integrated capacity to speak through symbolic acts is characteristic of prophetic people.
That same integrated capacity to speak prophetically is characteristic of one of his closest advisers and collaborators in the New Franciscan Papacy, Cardinal Seán Patrick O'Malley O.F.M. Cap. This man is a Franciscan Friar with a big heart for the Lord. When you meet him you are immediately drawn not to him, but to the Lord whom he serves with such simplicity and love. You also want to smile.
His relationship with Jesus Christ comes through in word and action. He fully understands the Gospel mandate to reach out to what Pope Francis calls the peripheries, with the love of God made visible. I thank the Lord that, all those years ago now, when I lived in those peripheries, Jesus sent someone to me.
Both Pope Francis and Cardinal Seán are what I call Evangelical Catholics. I used the phrase long before it became "acceptable". Back when I wrote the first book to actually use phrase, Evangelical Catholic was a controversial term. A great evangelical protestant champion for the Lord named Chuck Colson wrote the forward to the book. Chuck and I became fodder for anti-catholic Protestants. Sadly, some of the virulent criticisms still circulate.
To my dismay, when the book was published, it was dismissed, disregarded, or made light of by some in the then emerging Catholic intellectual class. Chapter I was entitled Evangelical Catholic: A Contradiction in Terms?
I began with a simple claim: I am a Christian. I am a Catholic Christian. I am an evangelical Catholic Christian. To many who read all three claims, they are either contradictory or can only stand together in certain limited configurations. Nevertheless, it is my contention and my experience that not only can I be all three, but each is necessary to define my relationship with Jesus Christ and with His Church as well as my role in the Church's ongoing mission to bring all men and women to salvation in Jesus Christ.
All these years later, I still make the same claim. In fact, the depth of its meaning has only expanded through my lived experience and been deepened by my theological studies. Fortunately, I am also joined by millions who make the same claim that they are Evangelical Catholics.
This Cardinal from Boston and Pope from Buenos Aires are men who personally know the Risen Lord Jesus, understand the priestly and Franciscan vocation, and live it out in genuine humility. They are men of prophetic action. And, they are joined by divine design.
I was not surprised when Pope Francis chose the Cardinal to serve in a significant role in this pontificate. It confirmed my conviction that Francis is a special gift for the Church at this time of reform and that we are living in a new missionary age. He is selecting leaders, after a clear time of discernment, with a specific pastoral plan in mind.
It is in this light that the prophetic leadership and prophetic action of Cardinal Seán Patrick O'Malley O.F.M. Cap. must be understood. On April 1, 2014, when he led an eight person mission to the US-Mexico border in Nogales, Arizona and offered the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, he was expressing the spirit of this Franciscan papacy. His homily is beautiful and can be read in its entirety here.
Giving the Body and Blood of Jesus to a brother in the Lord through a border fence speaks prophetically of the saving mission of the Church. The Border is a new periphery. The Church is the Body of Christ, called into the whole world to continue His redemptive mission. Those who are joined in Jesus Christ are joined in a solidarity which speaks beyond politics.
Sadly, even some in Catholic media circles, did not get the message. One Catholic Aggregation site wrongly insinuated the act was somehow an inappropriate political use of holy communion. I was truly distressed to read such an incorrect "spin". The act was prophetic and pastoral. It was another demonstration of the prophetic church of the New Franciscans. Get ready, there is much more to come.
Another of my favorite Bishops in the United States is Archbishop José H. Gomez. He addresses Immigration with prophetic insight and compelling clarity. His extraordinary book entitled Immigration and the Next America: Renewing the Soul of Our Nation should be ready by any sincere Christian who wants to approach this issue with a renewed mind and heart.
The Archbishop of Los Angeles calls us to approach one of the hot button issues of the hour with a Catholic mind and a Catholic heart - and to take our place in building a new and true Culture of Life and Civilization of love, by rejecting what Pope Francis has labeled the throwaway culture. The lens through which we must view all men and women is their human dignity. We are all created in the Image of God.
We are not first liberal, conservative or any other permutation of these political labels. We are not first Democrats or Republicans, or any other political party. We are first Catholic Christians and, as such, we need to approach this issue - and every 'social issue' - with the mind and heart of the Lord as revealed through His Church.
The book, like the prophetic action of the Cardinal from Boston and his brothers, is not about politics but about a prophetic response to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. For those who want to consider more of where the Prophetic Church of the New Franciscans is headed, I recommend reading the Aparecida Document.

Absolutely stunning movie trailers for The Dark Knight Rises and Prometheus exploded all over the web in the last 24 hours. A few weeks ago, it was the promo clips for Looper that got everybody buzzing. Like lots of other folks, I eagerly watched all those teasers over and over again. And I can't stop thinking about…

I loved this book. It has been my bedtime reading and I will miss it.
Natalie Maclean can be so irreverent but her love of her subject shines as does her knowledge of wine. She visits wine regions in several wine growing countries and interviews interesting winemakers. As a writer myself, I wish I had done something similar. Australia especially interested because it is closest to my home (New Zealand.) So I know the Aussie wines she discusses, and the winemakers are familiar. Her journey through riesling vineyards of Germany is fascinating as is South Africa and that country's emerging notable ``black'' winemakers. In Canada she tells us pinot noir is the ``heartbreak grape.''
Her chosen winemakers to interview are endlessly fascinating. One had previously worked in special effects for well-known movies. In Italy she takes us to Sicily where vineyards and winemakers live with the threat of a volcano. Was Sicily the birthplace of wine making?
She admits to once spitting out a bad wine, commenting wryly it being regrettable she was in a restaurant. Her descriptions of wine experiences on her palate are creative. She does not include my country's winemakers in her travels but does refer to New Zealand particularly the innovative use of sheep to eliminate the use of lawn mowing amongst the vineyards.
Each section summarizes vineyards visited, best value wines and suggests food matches.Natalie even includes her travelling reading -not necessarily related to wine. Poor quality wine will merely wet your tongue. But best value in wine buying will satisfy your palate and not stress your finances.
Read this book, it will Change your thinking when you unscrew or uncork your next bottle.
At the end of each chapter, there are a variety of lists - ranging from the practical, such as 'best values' from the region, to the somewhat free-association 'reading lists' that represent the author's attempts to capture the essence of a particular locale. Suggested food-wine pairings are also listed and often described in detail in the text. My only criticism, actually backhanded, is that the number of regions was so limited. A sequel seems natural and would be appreciated by non-pretentious wine lovers everywhere! I would particularly enjoy reading the result of a similar survey across the winegrowing regions of Canada.
I do not think I have enjoyed a book on wine more than "Unquenchable". It is like being on a world wine tour from your easy chair at home.
I loved the variety of wines, countries and winemakers that Natalie featured. The people she met, interviewed and dined with were wonderful and their passion for the art of winemaking came through in a very convincing and human way. I loved hearing about the food they ate and look forward to trying some of the recipes.
The number of food items and flora that Natalie and other wine experts use to describe a particular wine never ceases to amaze me.I know when I taste some of the wines she recommends, I will be happy if I can identify even a couple of them.
Finally, thanks for the humour!
What a refreshing and informative book.
Her gift for engaging delightful people, with whom she shares many stories, enjoys many great meals and of course drinks an abundance of good wine, all the while having the presence of mind to share it all with the reader, is extraordinary.
Even if you aren't a wine geek, you will enjoy a sense of people and place that is shared in a most engaging read.

Guides & Articles
- Chrome TrimPillar Post Trim: Mirror-Bright Dress-Up For The OutsideWhile chrome trim has gone in and out of fashion on automobiles over the years, it's hard to deny the reason chrome always comes back into fashion is because it simply looks so good. Applied in just the right amount, chrome pieces can really make the lines of any car or truck pop. When most vehicles roll off the assembly line though, trim pieces around doors and windows are often found lacking - but with potential for easy improvement.
- Rocker Panels & FloorsFitment, Style, Installation | Rocker Panel Trim Options ExplainedSince the demise of built-in running boards after World War II, auto manufacturers have been using rocker panel moldings to dress up a vehicle area that would otherwise be plain-looking and nondescript. Technically, a rocker panel is the section of a vehicle's body below the doors and between the front and rear wheel wells. For decades, stainless steel molding strips were installed over rocker panels for styling purposes and to protect the body from stones and debris. Typically, a value-priced base model would have no rocker panel moldings at all, a higher-trim level would feature a slim molding strip just below the doors, and the most expensive version of a car would be equipped with wide rocker molding sets that extended further up onto the doors.
- Chrome TrimChrome Trim: Overlay vs. ReplacementOne of the more eye-catching tricks automobile manufacturers have used to differentiate higher-priced luxury versions of a car model from value-priced versions of it has been to vary the amount of chrome trim on the vehicle. Base model cars and trucks (also known as "strippers" or "entry level") have little if any chrome while luxury and top-of-the-line ones have the most chrome. In years past, plain Jane cars were simply painted in all areas instead of being chromed. In more recent decades, the low-cost replacement of choice has become black plastic. This makes base models easier than ever to spot because the eye catches hard on black plastic. Completely missing is the pleasing chrome finish on grilles, door trim, mirror assemblies, light bezels, and other areas. Base models end up looking more like fleet vehicles or work trucks than anything prestigious, especially to people who aren't automotive enthusiasts.
- Chrome TrimIs Chrome Back in Style?The brilliant gleam and glimmer that comes from bright chrome and polished stainless steel can transform almost every part of your vehicle! Besides the great selection of trim accessories, you also benefit from the high quality of today's chrome and stainless steel parts.

all at once
I wanted to make some summer-appropriate peach pancakes for breakfast this morning, but the peaches have been so good that I've been eating them out of hand, sparing none for anything that calls for cooking them.
I may still hit the farmers market tomorrow for another pancake breakfast, but in the meantime, a long-Pinned recipe called my name this morning - Cinnamon Polenta Ebelskivers. Well, really, they're meant to be regular pancakes, but I couldn't bear the thought of cooking only two pancakes at a time in my 10-inch nonstick pan, and figured that if I ebelskiver'ed them, they'd be on the plate much faster. My patience wears thin these days.
These are certainly not your light, fluffy, dessert-like ebelskivers, but rather, they're hearty nuggets of coziness, full of fall flavors, but bursting with a pop of seasonal blueberries, added at the last minute on a whim.
Cinnamon Polenta Ebeskivers
slightly adapted from Food & Wine
serves 2-3
1/2 c. all-purpose flour
6 T. cornmeal
1 1/2 t. brown sugar
1/2 t. cinnamon
1/2 t. baking powder
1/4 t. baking soda
Pinch of salt
1/2 c. almond milk
1 large egg
2 T. olive oil
1/4 c. blueberries (optional)
1. In a small bowl, whisk the flour with the cornmeal, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
2. In a measuring cup, beat the egg, then whisk in the buttermilk and olive oil. Whisk the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients, leaving small lumps.
3. Set an ebelskiver pan over moderate high heat and spray it with vegetable oil spray. When the pan is hot, spoon 1 heaping T. of batter into each cup, and top each with two blueberries. Cook the pancakes until the bottoms are browned and bubbles appear on the surface, 1-2 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the bottom, 1-2 minutes longer. Serve the pancakes warm with melted butter and maple syrup.

gonna eat a lot of peaches
There is a shocking amount of joy that comes from making, serving, and eating this peach crumble, topped perfectly with what this California girl can only describe as an oatmeal pizookie. It is also a pure and wonderful coincidence that this was made on National Peach Ice Cream Day. Never mind that the peach was under the cookie, and the (vanilla) ice cream served on top.
I only regret that the photo doesn't capture my excitement for this perfect summer dessert. This was a back-up photo I took before bringing the pan over to our dear friends CJ + Lisa's house for a much-overdue catch-up session. The plan was to capture it in action, on individual serving plates, a la mode, but the clamor (and shocking joy) of their two little boys asking for peaches and ice cream was too much for my heart to bear, and I couldn't justify taking the time to pick up the camera before presenting them with their portions. Sorry, but really, not sorry.
Peach Marzipan-Oatmeal Cookie Crumble
slightly adapted from Half Baked Harvest
serves 12
1 T. butter
4-5 medium peaches
1 1/4 c. brown sugar, divided
2 c. rolled oats
1 1/2 c. whole wheat flour
3/4 t. baking soda
1/4 t. salt
3/4 c. melted coconut oil
2 eggs
2 T. vanilla extract, divided
4 oz. marzipan, rolled into small balls
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat, and add the butter. Add the sliced peaches, and sprinkle with 1/4 c. brown sugar. Cook for 3 minutes, then stir the peaches, and cook another 2 to 3 minutes or until caramelized and soft. Remove from the heat, and add 1 T. of the vanilla. Toss well.
3. In a large mixing bowl, add the oatmeal, whole wheat flour, remaining 1 c. brown sugar, baking soda, salt, melted coconut oil, eggs and remaining 1 T. vanilla. Stir until combined and the dough holds together. Mix in the marzipan balls.
4. Sprinkle the dough directly over the peaches. Bake for about 20-25 minutes, until the cookie is golden brown. Remove from the oven and let sit 5 minutes. Serve with your favorite ice cream.

all i need
I've gone way, completely off Whole30 since July 1st. Like, fully derailed. My aspirations of staying gluten-free and dairy-free after this last round were left in the dust of two weeks of small town eating and craft service tables.
But as annoying and eyeroll-inducing as this sounds, I feel so intensely better when I do eat Whole30, especially since I don't have to endure the self-imposed guilt of over-snacking because I'm actually satisfied by the meal I've just had.
This Orange Mustard Chicken is case-in-point. Perfectly cooked chicken drumsticks with a side of roasted potatoes and broccoli that self-basted in the drippings of the roasting chicken on the rack above them. Not terribly orange-y, but plenty mustard-y, and just a good combo of flavors and textures.
Orange Mustard Chicken
slightly adapted from Nom Nom Paleo
serves 4
1/2 c. spicy brown mustard
1/4 c. orange juice
1 T. olive oil
6 garlic cloves, minced
2 t. salt
3 lbs. skin-on chicken drumsticks
1 lb. teeny tiny potatoes, cut into 1-inch chunks
8 oz. broccoli florets, cut into bite-sized pieces
1. Combine the mustard, orange juice, olive oil, garlic, and salt in a large bowl. Add the chicken drumsticks, and mix well to coat. Refrigerate in the marinade for 30 minutes or up to 12 hours.
2. When you're ready to roast the chicken, heat the oven to 425 degrees with the rack in the middle position.
3. Combine the potatoes and broccoli in a 13x9 baking dish. Place a wire rack on top of the dish. Lay the marinated drumsticks in a single layer on the wire rack.
4. Roast in the oven for 20 minutes, and then remove the rack to toss the vegetable mixture in the chicken drippings. Replace the rack, then flip the drumsticks over and rotate the tray 180 degrees.
5. Continue cooking for 20 minutes or until the skin is browned and an instant-read thermometer reads 170 degrees in the thickest part of the chicken. Serve immediately with the roasted vegetables on the side.

ducked off
I originally wanted to do a duck breast recipe, but when all Whole Foods could offer was a few duck leg quarters, I told myself that this couldn't be that much different, and why not, let's go with it.
That decision turned into a giant wormhole of doubt, anxiety, and too many pages of Google search results. For the most part, I learned this was going to take way longer than my original duck breast recipe, and I was annoyed.
Luckily, neither of us were particularly starving for dinner, so I figured I could experiment with combining a few of the recipes I found, and just throw it in the oven to braise, and watch the Dodgers game until it was done.
Turns out, roasting only 2 duck legs doesn't take that long at all, and we were eating by the 7th inning stretch. The chard was alternately meltingly tender at the bottom, and chewy-crisp at the top, and frankly, I didn't care what the tomatoes did just so long as I could use some up from the insane crop our Sweet 100 plants are busting out with at the moment. And now we have duck fat for future breakfast potatoes to boot!
Roast Duck Legs with Braised Chard + Cherry Tomatoes
serves 2
2 duck leg quarters (about 1 lb. total)
8 oz. chard leaves, halved lengthwise
1 c. cherry tomatoes
1/2 c. vegetable broth
salt and pepper, to taste
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
2. In a 12-inch cast-iron pan, cook the duck legs, skin side down, until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Flip and brown the second side, another 3 minutes. Remove the legs to a plate, and discard all but 1 T. of the duck fat.
3. Add the chard, tomatoes and broth, and cook for just a few minutes until the chard is wilted and flat against the pan. Return the duck legs to the pan, skin side up, salt and pepper to taste, and roast in the oven for 30 minutes, or until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the leg registers 165 degrees.
4. Let rest for 5 minutes, tented in foil, and then serve.

throw some bacon on it
Calling all gluten-avoiders who love onion rings! These consist of only onions and bacon, and they will 100% change your life.
My father-in-law found a recipe for bacon-wrapped onion rings online, and it didn't take long to decide that it was going on the menu for their Third of July barbecue. There were a few complications that came making these on the grill, so this is more a list of considerations than a full recipe, because honestly, you don't really need a recipe for this.
This will only lead to certain disaster. You do not have nearly enough square footage on your grilling surface to make these fast enough to serve your crew. Also, they'll go from crisp to charred in the blink of an eye. Instead, just bake them in the oven (over a wire rack if you prefer to have the grease drip off) at about 400-425 degrees until they're done. Also, you don't need to skewer the rings like you see in the photo above. You've just wrapped it within an inch of its life - that bacon ain't going anywhere.
Use sweet Vidalia onions for both flavor and their squatness. You'll get more evenly-sized onion rings there than if you use a perfect spherical onion. Slice them about 1/2-inch thick to start so that the bacon has something to grab on to, but how many rings you choose to leave is up to you and your preferred bacon-to-onion ratio. Reserve the middle bits for chopping and sauteeing later.
Have more than you think you need. If you don't use it all, throw it in the freezer for future breakfasts (or barbecues). You don't want to be caught with too little bacon here. And don't use any of that flimsy, thin-sliced, mostly fat, grocery store-brand stuff. It doesn't have to be thick-cut, but a good substantial slice that's not too fatty will save you a headache while you're wrapping your onion rings.
Make this for dipping. Mix mayo with as much Sriracha as you can stand. Dip to your heart's delight.

bigger is better
Back in the day, I used to pretend to cater. I bought a bunch of lovely serving devices, and made lots of individually-portioned snacks. Then I ran out of patience. The ooh's and aah's that accompany the presentation of tiny, bite-sized pieces of food can only momentarily wipe away the memory of the work it took to compose those bites.
I avoided that bit of PTSD for tonight's dinner by making big entree-sized portions of Nom Nom Paleo's cute dim sum-like Shrimp-Stuffed Mushrooms. No, we weren't doing 24 individual stuffed cremini mushrooms - we're going to go ahead and split that shrimp paste in half, and serve ourselves dinner in two portobello caps.
I loved all of the flavors here - the sweetness of the shrimp, the porky studs of bacon throughout, and the earthy mushroom base. It's comforting and homey (if your memories include dim sum), and is both light and satisfying. A quick saute of bok choy and snow peas is all I needed here, but I imagine putting this between your favorite roll with some Sriracha aioli would also make a pretty nice sandwich.
Shrimp-Stuffed Portobellos
very slightly adapted from Nom Nom Paleo
serves 2
2 large portobello mushrooms (about 8 oz. total)
2 t. olive oil
8 oz. shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/4 c. chopped green onions
1/4 c. packed cilantro leaves
2 bacon slices, diced
1 T. diced red bell pepper
1 t. fish sauce
1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
2. Remove the stems and gills from the mushrooms. Place the mushrooms gill-side down on a small baking sheet, and drizzle 1 t. olive oil on each mushroom. Roast for 10 minutes, then flip and roast for 10 more.
3. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the shrimp, green onion, cilantro, bacon, bell pepper, and fish sauce. Process to a thick paste.
4. Divide the paste between the two mushroom caps, and roast for another 10-15 minutes, or until the shrimp mixture is completely set. Serve immediately.

underwater dream
Truly, you had me at "Chilean sea bass." If it were appropriate to call fish dreamy, this would be it. That texture. The way it flakes right off when you've cooked it right. The way it just about melts in your mouth.
I'm not sure what the sage adds to it other than the stress of keeping it adhered while grilling, and then the panic at having torn a few when flipping. A well-salted and -peppered fillet with perfectly crisp skin and golden grill marks is more than sufficient, especially with the lily-gilding of the fresh and lemon-y almond-parsley salsa.
The vegetables were a nice and easy complement to the fish. The textures of the broccolini, snow peas and haricot verts played upon each other beautifully, and the tahini sauce gave them an earthy flavor that balanced both the greens and the fish. I'm not generally a huge fan of tahini, but whisked into a sauce with coconut aminos and a little acidity from apple cider vinegar and fresh lemon juice, it works.
Grilled Chilean Sea Bass with Almond Salsa
slightly adapted from Francis Mallmann's Mallmann On Fire
serves 2
For the fish:
1 lb. Chilean sea bass, skin-on, in one piece
2 T. olive oil
10 sage leaves
salt and pepper to taste
For the almond salsa:
2 T. sliced almonds
2 T. chopped parsley
1/2 T. lemon zest
1/2 T. lemon juice
1 T. olive oil
salt, pepper, and red chili pepper flakes, to taste
1. Heat a large cast-iron grill pan over high heat. Brush the pan generously with olive oil.
2. Brush both sides of the fish with olive oil. Arrange the sage leaves on the flesh side, patting them down so they adhere. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
3. Invert the fish, sage side down onto the grill, and grill without moving it, for 5-7 minutes.
4. While the fish is cooking, combine the salsa ingredients, and season to taste.
5. Brush the skin again with oil. Check to see if the fish is ready to turn by lifting up one edge - when it is ready, it will release easily. Flip the fish, and cook on the other side for 3-5 minutes, until the skin is crisp, and the fish is just cooked through. Serve immediately with almond salsa
Broccolini-Snow Pea-Haricot Vert Salad with Tahini Sauce
slightly adapted from Yotam Ottolenghi's Plenty More
serves 4
For the salad:
8 oz. broccolini, cut into bite-sized pieces
4 oz. haricot verts, trimmed
6 oz. snow peas, trimmed
3/4 c. chopped cilantro
toasted sesame seeds, for garnish
For the sauce:
3 T. tahini
2 T. water
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 T. coconut aminos
1 T. apple cider vinegar
1 T. lemon juice
1. In a small bowl, whisk together all of the ingredients for the sauce. Set aside.
2. Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add the haricot verts, and cook for 1 minute. Add the broccolini, and cook for another minute. Add the snow peas, and cook for 2 more minutes. Drain all of the vegetables, and then run them under cold water to stop the cooking. Dry well.
3. Toss the vegetables with the cilantro and 2 T. of the sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and garnish with sesame seeds.

Ready in 1 hour 10 minutes
This is a filipino dish that my niece turned me on to and my whole family just LOVES it. I serve it with brown rice.
171 people want to try | 227 have favorited
Place all ingredients in a pot and simmer until chicken is tender, about 1 hour. Serve hot over cooked rice. It can also be cooked in a crock pot on low setting all day. this easy recipe can be prepared ahead and it freezes well.
amandaboo420w4x9 11m agoThis is a good recipe but I add a tablespoon of brown sugar, green beans, sweet potato, and boiled eggs 30 minutes before its done
Fajitarita 2y agoSo delish. ....I always use this recipe
musket42 2y agoWay too long cooking time. Bland, I added ginger, peppercorns, less water.
travisj 3y agoHad average expectations and was blown away by the results!! Impressive.
amandamiller2 3y agoi make mine in a crock pot and use the less sodium soy sauce. i also use way more garlic and add green beans, potatos and boiled eggs. After that i add more water to fill the crock pot. SET IT AND FORGET IT.
jaklynmela7 3y agoIt's okay! It wasn't a spectacular recipe like my mom's or sister-in-law's..it was just ALRIGHT. I substituted white vinegar with apple cider vinegar so it wouldn't be so sour and I also used only a cup of soy sauce instead of a cup and a half. I didn't want it to be too salty either. Next time I'll tweak this recipe a little more by frying the chicken a little in the end before serving on the rice.
angelashoe 3y agoExcellent dish!! I love it!!
christeran 4y agoGood n easy to make.
michy_55 4y agoI love this recipe, I added potatoes to it and yummyyyy!
adacooks 4y agoWow - this was fabulous! I cut dwn the recipe a little and used bone-in chicken thighs and it only required 40 minutes of stewing. Next time, I'm making a larger recipe and keeping the leftover chicken for a second meal later in the week. My husband loved this!

Com. between Android & Fez Panda
July 21, 2013
Hi Guys
Im planning to use my old Galaxy S3 for a sort of display/face for my small bot.
So i want to have some sort of way to communicate between my phone and my Fez Panda 2 board...
As i see it i got 3 possible ways to do this, WiFi, Bluetooth or USB.
I would love to do this over usb, but not sure if its possible ? My experiance with USB comm. is that it seems at bit complicated...
Any ideas, or experiences?
Some time ago I have ported
Some time ago I have ported the MicroBridge Library from Arduino to FEZ devices, for more infos see my blog post. FezBridge is only tested with FEZ Domino. To make this work with the FEZ Panda you will need to modify the Panda/USB cable. This code will not work with USB OTG.
You should know that the
You should know that the FezBridge is not a ready to use library, it's more a proof of concept and not easy to use. The easier way would be, as 6677 suggested, to use a serial link or bluetooth. But you will need extra hardware.
Another way would be using ADK (Android open accesory) instead of ADB (Android Debug Mode). Don't know if your phone supports ADK. Look here for an example.

I am currently pursuing my PhD degree under the joint supervision of Prof. Rudolph (Leipzig, Germany) and Prof. Huebschmann (Lille, France).
My research is motivated by conceptual and mathematical problems of classical field theory, which I try to attack with infinite-dimensional differential geometry. In particular, I am interested in the action of Fréchet Lie groups on Fréchet manifolds to investigate the moduli spaces occurring as configuration spaces of gauge theory and general relativity.

I'm glad that the elections are finally – FINALLY – over. It's my view that, as some wise person once said, if elections ever solved anything, they'd be outlawed by our "leaders."
Maybe that's why those leaders would like to tell us that nullification is "illegal" – because it can actually work.
It's my belief that liberty will never be handed to us by politicians – close or far. It will only be taken by our own very actions, our own agitation in defense of it, and our own sacrifices made in support of it.
We've got a long way to go, and a lot of work to do. But the time to act is today – not tomorrow. Will you help us spread the message of liberty today?

Yogi Bear 2010
The Green Hornet a year or so back, I have to wonder if its because the current movie going audience has no point of reference for Yogi Bear any longer.
When I was a wee toddler waaay back in the late sixties, I have great memories of watching classic Hanna-Barbera cartoon characters like Yogi Bear with my dad. It's a good memory, sitting with my father, seeing the five to eight minute adventures of Huckleberry Hound, Jinx the Cat, Pixie and Dixie, and Jellystone Park's favorite pick-a-nick basket thieves, Yogi and Boo Boo Bear.
That said, I doubt most of the folks who saw this in theaters even knew who Yogi is, um, was. Those that did, might have been put off as I was. The CGI Yogi and Boo Boo is kinda cool, until you see them next to live action human beings. Then the reality sets in that they are bears because the size ratio is correct and troubling. Bears, even those wearing ties, sometimes tend to eat people. I can see young kids being maybe freaked out by this.
Intellectually disturbing (for me at least) is the fact they acknowledge Yogi and Boo Boo are not only bears, but talking, thinking, tie wearing bears. They even acknowledge its rare, but they never explain why. That drives me nuts. Maybe it's just too meta for me to get past, but it bugs the hell outta me.
All in all, Yogi Bear wasn't bad, fairly harmless actually, and did have the spirit at least of those original sixties cartoons. Anna Faris didn't annoy the hell out of me, and it had Journey music, so it couldn't be all bad. Good for the kiddies even though they might not even know Yogi or Boo Boo.

Though his actions were sleazy in the extreme and hurt a lot of people, including some he was ostensibly close to, you've just got to hand it to Joshua Matthew Pierce.
In a Waco federal court yesterday, Pierce, of Houston, pleaded guilty to defrauding a Waco bank, his own son-in-law and another man, two jet-leasing companies and a Waco lawyer.
According to KXXV, it all started last October, when Pierce opened a checking account at the Extraco bank in Waco. After telling them he would be wiring in $10,000 at a later date, he was able to withdraw $550 with a debit card. Pierce never made the promised wire transfer.
A month after that, Pierce took a meeting with two men, including his son-in-law Ken Lewis. (Records state that Pierce is only 30, so we're not sure how that worked unless there's a step- involved, or Pierce had a daughter at 15 who then got married herself at the same age, but anyway...)

Pierce told the men that he owned a prospering business in Kansas City, and he wanted in on a deal wherein the trio would purchase a company called Aurora Aviation at a small airport in the town of McGregor. Though he promised to wire $150,000 to cover his end of the deal, the whole meeting was a charade. Pierce just wanted to get his partners' Social Security numbers, which he used to obtain bogus credit cards.
And the roly-poly con man had only just begun...
Pierce used the fake credit cards to hop around America on corporate jets belonging to jet-leasing companies in Michigan and Arizona. The final tab for those flights came to $30,000.
Once police in the town of Robinson tracked him down, Pierce denied everything. He showed them a letter of credit which later turned out to be worthless.
And then, finally, he hired Waco attorney Guy Cox to defend him in these matters. When Cox sent him a bill, Pierce paid with a fraudulent check.
Court documents say Pierce confessed to one and all of these cases on Leap Day. He will be sentenced on July 11.
A public records search shows that Pierce got into some trouble over bad checks a few years back in Brazoria County.
Meanwhile, on his LinkedIn page, Pierce claims to be a "business consultant / CEO" of his own Pierce Global Logistics Corporation (Web site defunct), whose "aggressive management tools, strategies and practices" help him focus on "progressive techniques that improve quality and roi."
DPS records list Pierce as packing a cool 450 pounds on his six-foot fame in 2006, but on his LinkedIn page he claims to have played soccer and baseball at Ottawa University in Kansas at around the same time.
