I'm so glad you enjoyed it. That was one of the recipes I had set up and had the ingredients for when Faith was born. That way I could get all the ingredients in the crock pot in the morning and be set for dinner in the evening.
I'll have to try the Portabella Mushroom Burgers for lunch sometime. Sounds yummy!
1/4 cup olive oil
2 TBSP fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 tsp minced garlic
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/8 tps freshly ground pepper (plus more as needed)
1/2 tsp sugar
1 cup orzo pasta (un cooked)
1/4 cup pine nuts
1/4 cup golden raisins
3 TBSP finely chopped pitted oil-cured black olives
3 TBSP finely chopped red onion
1/4 cup thinly sliced fresh basil
2 oz feta cheese, drained and crumbled
Whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, pepper and sugar in a small bowl and set aside.
Cook the pasta, 8-10 minutes, drain and transfer to a medium bowl.
While the pasta is cooking, put pine nuts in a dry small skillet over medium-low heat. Shake constantly until evenly toasted on all sides, about 5 minutes. Be careful, they burn easily.
Add dressing to hot pasta and toss. Let the pasta cool to room temperature and add pine nuts, raisins, olives, onion and basil and stir. Add feta and toss lightly. Add salt and pepper as needed.
This is fairly easy to make, and is a great summer recipe. You can eat it cold or at room temperature too. It makes a good picnic salad because there is no mayo in it to go bad. I have a tendency to put too much garlic in it, and i leave out the olives because i don't like them.

1 cup lightly packed basil leaves, torn into small pieces
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 375, spray a 9x13 baking pan with non stick spray. Cook beef and sausage and season with salt and pepper. When cooked, transfer to a medium bowl and add marinara sauce. Stir to combine and set aside.
Mix ricotta, cream cheese and parmesan in a medium bowl. Season with 1/4 tsp of pepper.
Cover bottom of baking dish with 1 cup of meat sauce, arrange a single layer of noodles (3 sheets) on top of the sauce. Spread 1 1/2 cup of sauce on top, add 1/2 of the cheese mixture, then add 1/2 of the basil leaves on top of that. Top with another layer of noodles, 1 1/2 cups of sauce, the remaining cheese mixture and the remaining basil. Spread remaining sauce on top and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
Cover with aluminum foil and back for 30 minutes. Uncover and back until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown - 10-15 more minutes. Let stand 15 minutes before serving.

[LEFT]** If it's only going to sit for 4-6 hours, I find it best to put the noodles on the bottom of the pan, pour on the liquids and then layer the remaining ingredients on top. I let it set in the refrigerator like this and then stir to combine just before baking. If it sets all night, then it's okay to combine right away.[/LEFT]

Brown Sugar Banana Bread
Source: Secrets of Fat Free Desserts by Sandra Woodruff
Yields: 16 slices (2 pts each)
2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
2 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
2 cups mashed very ripe banana (about 4 large)
1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp light brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 cup honey crunch wheat germ or chopped toasted pecans
To Make Toasted Chopped Pecans:
Arrange nuts in a single layer on baking sheet
Bake 350 degrees for about 6-8 minutes; or until lightly browned with a toasted, nutty smell. Watch closely; once they start to brown they can quickly burn
Bread Directions
1) Place the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Stir to mix well. Set aside.
2) Place the bananas and brown sugar in a medium-sized bowl, and stir until the brown sugar has dissolved. Add the banana mixture and vanilla extract to the flour mixture, and stir just until the dry ingredients are moistened. Fold in the wheat germ or pecans.
3) Coat an 8x4 inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray, and spread the mixture evenly in the pan. Bake at 325 degrees for about 55 minutes, or just until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
4) Remove the loaf from the oven, and let sit for 15 minutes. Invert the loaf onto a wire rack, turn right side up, and cool to room temperature. Wrap the loaf in plastic wrap or aluminum foil, and store for 8 hours or overnight before slicing and serving. (Overnight storage will develop the flavors and give the loaf a softer, moisture crust.) Refrigerate any leftovers not eaten within 24 hours.

Spicy Meatloaf with Herbs
Source: Weight Watchers New Complete Cookbook
Yields: 4 servings (large servings!); 6 pts each
2 tsp vegetable oil
1 cup finely chopped mushrooms
1 onion; finely chopped
1/4 carrot; finely chopped (note: I use the pre-grated carrots that you can buy in the produce section to save time)
2 tbsp minced celery
2 tbsp minced seeded green bell pepper
1 pd lean ground beef (10% or less fat)
1/2 cup quick-cooking oats
1 egg
2 tbsp tomato paste
1 tbsp worcestershire sauce

1 tsp minced fresh rosemary, or 1/2 tsp dried leaves, crumbled
1 tsp minced fresh sage, or pinch dried leaves
1 tsp minced fresh thyme, or 1/2 tsp dried leaves
1/4 tsp hot red pepper sauce (Note: I use dried crushed red pepper instead)
1/4 cup tomato puree or tomato sauce, diluted with 1/4 cup water.
1) Preheat the oven to 350. Spray a 9" square baking pan with non-stick cooking spray. In a large non-stick skillet, heat the oil. Saute the mushrooms, onion, carrot, celery and bell pepper until softened, about 5 minutes.
2) In a large bowl, combine the sauteed vegetables, beef, oats, egg, tomato paste, worcestershire sauce, garlic, rosemary, sage, thyme, and pepper sauce. Shape into a loaf about 7x5x2" and place in the pan. Bake, basting with tomato puree after 30 minutes, until cooked through, about 1 to 1-1/4 hours. Let stand about 10 minutes before slicing.
Per serving:
Calories: 268
Fat: 12g
Fiber: 3g
Notes: My husband wont eat onion, so I add extra mushrooms, pepper, carrots, celery and green pepper. I also goofed once and added the tomato puree into the meatloaf. It turned out really moist and DH loved it, so I do it this way now. But, I still add a puree to the top after 30 minutes; but instead of diluting with water, I just use a small can of tomato sauce.
Black Bean Brownies
Yields: 16 brownies
1 pt each
Brownie Mix (Ghiradeli Brand is what the recipe calls for)

Butternut Squash Soup
2 Tbsp Butter
5 cups cubed/peeled Butternut squash; cut into 1/2-1 inch pieces
2 cups cubed/peeled potatoes; cut into 1/2-1 inch pieces
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
2 cups chopped leeks
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup half and half
Melt butter in a stock pot. Add squash, potatoes, salt and pepper; roast for 3-5 minutes. Add leeks and roast for an additional 2-3 minutes. Pour in the broth. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 20-30 minutes until the veggies are tender.
Note: You will need a second stock pot or need to pour the soup into another container before doing the next step.
Directions Continued:
Let cool slightly and then place about 1/2 the veggie/broth mixture into a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Pour out the pureed mixture into another stock pot. Add the other 1/2 of the soup to the blender/food processor and puree until smooth.
Return to the stove top and then add the half and half. Serve immediately.
Special Notes:
If you want to make this ahead of time, just prepare up to the point that you add the half and half. Reheat and then add the half and half just prior to serving.
For a lighter variation, use fat free chicken broth and omit the half and half. Or, use skim milk in place of the half and half.
Can also be prepared and frozen. However, I would wait to add the milk or half and half until just before serving.

Good suppliment to take on an everyday basis if your feeling depressed. Works well on restoring neurotransimtter balance or serotonin after a big weekend out on the pills.
Better than Pharmaceuticals!

I have used this product for years on and off. I have been purchasing it for my son more often recently, as he has ADD as well as suffers from depression now and again. Rather than go on damaging drugs, he takes the 5-htp and it has give him a balance frame of mind and told me that he doesn't feel dizzy like he did on the drugs that were prescribed. The NOW brand is great because it's one tablet a day or as needed, so it's easy for him to remember!
I use Now Foods, 5-HTP to help me sleep each night because it works!
Posted by Reviewer1375550 on Apr 18, 2010
I use 5HTP each night - about an hour before bedtime to help me sleep and it works every time. I am able to fall asleep and if I have to get up in the night, I'm able to fall back to sleep as well. This product definetly works for me and I will continue to use it.

Product Description
From the Back Cover
Automated testing is a cornerstone of agile development. An effective testing strategy will deliver new functionality more aggressively, accelerate user feedback, and improve quality. However, for many developers, creating effective automated tests is a unique and unfamiliar challenge.
xUnit Test Patternsis the definitive guide to writing automated tests using xUnit, the most popular unit testing framework in use today. Agile coach and test automation expert Gerard Meszaros describes 68 proven patterns for making tests easier to write, understand, and maintain. He then shows you how to make them more robust and repeatable--and far more cost-effective.
Loaded with information, this book feels like three books in one. The first part is a detailed tutorial on test automation that covers everything from test strategy to in-depth test coding. The second part, a catalog of 18 frequently encountered "test smells," provides trouble-shooting guidelines to help you determine the root cause of problems and the most applicable patterns. The third part contains detailed descriptions of each pattern, including refactoring instructions illustrated by extensive code samples in multiple programming languages.
Topics covered include
- Writing better tests--and writing them faster
- The four phases of automated tests: fixture setup, exercising the system under test, result verification, and fixture teardown
- Improving test coverage by isolating software from its environment using Test Stubs and Mock Objects
- Designing software for greater testability
- Using test "smells" (including code smells, behavior smells, and project smells) to spot problems and know when and how to eliminate them
- Refactoring tests for greater simplicity, robustness, and execution speed
This book will benefit developers, managers, and testers working with any agile or conventional development process, whether doing test-driven development or writing the tests last. While the patterns and smells are especially applicable to all members of the xUnit family, they also apply to next-generation behavior-driven development frameworks such as RSpec and JBehave and to other kinds of test automation tools, including recorded test tools and data-driven test tools such as Fit and FitNesse.

Then I bought XUnit Test Patterns by Gerard Meszaros. Wow! Finally the issues I've struggled with are being addressed. Okay, I must admit I'm not very plugged in to the online software development community, and I'm sure these issues have been discussed before. But this book looks special. I sense it's giving voice to these issues in a big way that's introducing many developers to these ideas for the first time. After all, it had to take time for this kind of book to be written. Time for the patterns to be developed through hard and frustrating work.
Rarely have I bought a thick book on software development and eagerly read every single word from cover to cover. But I have with this book. And I know I'll soon do it again. I'm even tempted to also purchase the PDF version of the book, just so I can reference it wherever I happen to be.
It's not the final word on AUT, but it has me embracing the ideal of TDD once more. The company I work for develops a huge OO-based enterprise software system with no automated tests. As Meszaros explains, this kind of legacy system is the most difficult for incorporating AUT (and daunting for those new to AUT). But at least now I feel like we have a good chance.
Even if you have done automated unit testing using any of the xUnit frameworks in the past, it will be useful to read the introductory narratives. Meszaros accomplishes the difficult task of clearly describing all of the aspects of xUnit including fixture management. I say "difficult", because it can be hard to document something that is so familiar that you do every day. Even though most of this content is not new, it provides clear terminology, which is valuable in making the rest of the book understandable.
Mezaros writes in a clear and highly detailed style and the book appears suprisingly free of typos and grammatical errors, which is a nice change for technical books.
Don't be scared by the size of the book. There isn't anything unnecessary here, and even the glossary is comprehensive and useful.
Highly recommended!
Most Helpful Customer Reviews on Amazon.com (beta)
Like Martin Fowler's Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture, the book is split into two main sections, a narrative that weaves together a lot of the patterns and strategies, and then a catalogue of individual patterns. Between the two, there is a catalogue of 'test smells', similar to the 'code smells' discussed by Fowler in Refactoring, which I would suggest can be read profitably with the narrative section, rather than used as reference material.
There are a lot of patterns here on the mechanics of xUnit, such as 'Test Runner', 'Garbage-Collected Teardown' and 'Named Test Suite'. I was a bit confused about who this material is aimed at -- maybe someone looking at porting xUnit to a new programming language would find it useful, but a lot of it is fairly obvious to anyone who's used an xUnit in a non-trivial fashion (and certainly, if you haven't done so, this book is not a format that makes for a good introduction), or requires playing against xUnit's strengths (e.g. not putting setup and teardown code in their eponymous methods), although there is good reason for doing so in some of the examples provided, such as databases.
Beyond this, there is some good stuff on design-for-testability patterns (e.g. dependency injection versus dependency lookup), value patterns to replace magic constants, custom assertions and custom creation and other utility methods to make the intent of tests more clear. This material, along with the test smells chapter, is where the real value of the book lies. It encourages the application of the same software engineering principles you would apply to your applications (encapsulation, intent-revealing names, Don't Repeat Yourself) as you would to your testing code, something that's surprisingly easy to overlook, at least in my experience.
Also, the material on 'Test Doubles' (mocks, stubs, dummies and their ilk) is extremely useful. It touches on designing with mocks only superficially, but it does provide a helpful taxonomy of what different classes of doubles do. Now, if only everyone would standardise on this nomenclature, it would make life a lot easier. I suggest we brandish this enormous book threateningly at anyone who refuses to toe the line, and that should do the trick.
Because, boy, this book is big (about 900 pages). To be honest, it's too big. I rarely complain about getting too much book for my money, but the likes of GoF, PoEAA and PoSA 1 manage to come in between 400-500ish pages, so there's no reason XTP couldn't. The advantage is that the patterns in the catalogue, which take up most of the space, stand alone, without requiring too much flicking backwards and forwards between patterns.
The disadvantage is that there is a lot of repetition, so unlike the three design patterns books I mentioned above, which I suspect most people read cover to cover (or maybe that was just me and I'm a complete freak), I would suggest only dipping into the catalogue as necessary. For instance, how much difference is there between the 'Testcase Class per Class', 'Testcase Class per Feature' and the 'Testcase Class per Fixture' patterns? Not a lot, as you might expect.
I definitely liked this book. I would have liked it even more if it came in at about half its size and I would have preferred more emphasis on test and assertion organisation than the mechanics of the xUnit framework, but maybe that would have been a different type of book to the one Gerard Meszaros intended. This is nonetheless a must buy for anyone who cares about unit testing.
When I became aware that Gerard Meszaros ' xUnit Test Patterns book was going to ship Friday, I ordered it for overnight delivery on Saturday. I read well over 200 pages yesterday pretty much at one sitting, contented with a book that will change the face of the software industry, just as JUnit and all the other xUnit family have fundamentally altered software development for the better. Its definitely a big book at 944 pages, but it's not a book of excess, unnecessary pages. Rather it shows how hard it is to write defect-free software and the depth of the work that people are putting into this endeavor. The book uses Java as the language which obviously is no hardship to the C# programmer. Like most of the sound practices that have been evolving in the last ten years, this work has been evolving out of the terrific Java community.
Just like their are Code Smells, there are Test Smells, and writing good test code is just as hard and as worthy as writing good production code. Meszaros categorizes Test Smells into ProjectSmells, BehaviorSmells, and CodeSmells. Particularly interesting is his discussion in this regard to the commercial "record and playback" test automation products that have given test automation a bad name in many circles with their tendency to create FragileTests particularly with regard to Interface Sensitivity. Like many others, we were drawn in, and spent and wasted thousands of dollars with a vendor and exhibiting extreme Interface Sensitivity with the user interface. Their interface was not only unable to "pick up" most of the controls we use but even minor changes to the interface can cause tests to fail, even in circumstances in which a human user would say the test should pass. This only goes to support the notion many of us have talked about here about factoring a UI into MVP or MVC and not having logic in the "presentation."
Meszaros goes onto to provide very valuable discussions of Goals of Test Automation, Philosophies of Test Automation, and a Roadmap to Test Automation. We talk about things like Tests as Specification, also known as Executable Specification: "If we are doing test-driven development or test-first development, the tests give us a way to capture what the SUT should be doing before we start implementing it. They give us a way to specify the behavior in various scenarios captured in a form that we can then execute (essentially an "executable specification".) To ensure we are "building the right software", we must ensure that our tests reflect how the SUT will actually be used." We also talk about Tests as Documentation.
The main part of the book, of course, is the catalog of the patterns. Meszaros has provided a tremendous service to our community by not only cataloging and naming much of what we do, but also providing excellent discussions of why and how we do those things. I think, over time, this will be regarded as a seminal work in Software Development.
Gerard documented these (and many more) smells and patterns to help you write better tests. If you have written tests, you have probably used some of them, but even then looking at the patterns described in this book will help you tune your technique. For example Custom Assertions should always take the actual and expected values as parameters, so assertMagicObjectsAreEqual(actual, expected) is good, assertEverythingIsAlright(actual) is bad. And now you have a name for this technique, which makes it easier to explain to your fellow developers what you are doing. At 800+ pages you are bound to find plenty of new techniques as well.
If you are worried that this is another work by the pattern weenies, rest assured. The book follows the very simple and pragmatic "How It Works" and "When to Use It" format also used by Martin Fowlers' Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture.
Part 1 - The Narratives: A Brief Tour; Test Smells; Goals of Test Automation; Philosophy of Test Automation; Principles of Test Automation; Test Automation Strategy; xUnit Basics; Transient Fixture Management; Persistent Fixture Management; Result Verification; Using Test Doubles; Organizing Our Tests; Testing with Databases; A Roadmap to Effective Test Automation
Part 2 - The Test Smells: Code Smells; Behavior Smells; Project Smells
Part 3 - The Patterns: Test Strategy Patterns; xUnit Basics Patterns; Fixture Setup Patterns; Result Verification Patterns; Fixture Teardown Patterns; Test Double Patterns; Test Organization Patterns; Database Patterns; Design-for-Testability Patterns; Value Patterns
Part 4 - Appendixes: Test Refactorings; xUnit Terminology; xUnit Family Members; Tools; Goals and Principles; Smells, Aliases, and Causes; Patterns, Aliases, and Variations
Glossary; References; Index
Most of the books that cover xUnit software do so from the perspective of a technical manual. Everything is geared to writing the actual code for the test. Meszaros takes a different tack. He covers more of the "why" behind test writing in xUnit, as well as the basic patterns and principles you should be aware of when you're putting together your tests. People new to xUnit will throw together tests without much thought as to the structure and robustness of that script. Meszaros maintains that much of the same care that goes into writing and designing programs should also go into the test scripts. Patterns such as In-line Setup, Chained Tests, State Verification, and many others can adjust your whole mindset towards what makes a solid and maintainable test script that will serve you well both now and down the road when you have to make changes to the program (and add more scripts to your test suite). The book is set up such that you can scan for basic ideas, and then go back to specific patterns for more information as the situations and needs arise. With the use of both actual code and UML diagrams, it's very easy to catch the gist of each pattern, as well as seeing how it would actually be implemented. Very good stuff here...
If you practice test-driven development (and you should), you have no doubt worked with your particular xUnit variant. This book is the next step in your learning, and it will make you a much better developer and tester...
The book is rather voluminous, divided up into 3 parts. The first part, "The Narratives", is a refreshing lecture on the philosophy of test automation, a brief on test smells, test organization, and tests with external resources. Essentially an overview of several concepts involved in test automation.
Part 2, aptly titled "The Test Smells," covers some of the common test smells, such as "Hard-to-Test Code", "Fragile Test", and "Slow Test" just to name a few. These are organized in the format Symptoms, Impact, Troubleshooting Advice, and Causes, with the Causes section broken down by cause, with Symptoms, Root Cause, and Possible Solution listed for each. I was impressed with this section as I already recognized some of the smells, as well as having already applied some of the solutions listed in the past.
Part 3 is "The Patterns", which follows the form of most patten catalogs out there. This is the largest section as it makes up more than half of the book, covering a lot of a ground. The patterns are given in a similar form to the ones in PoEAA, and provide easy to follow examples and in depth analysis. I was happy to find myself applying two of the patterns in the section already on a current project.
Overall, great book. Highly Recommended. ;)

Hello, my name is Jessica, I'm a 38 year old single mother of the two most wonderful children in the world, I love music, the outdoors, being by the sea. I also have a very rare genetic condition which has left me fighting for my life and having to raise a massive £150,000 to fund my own life saving surgery in America.
PulseGuard successfully alerted us to every one of Tom's seizures within the first two years of trials. Whilst talking to Tom's consultants, other Epilepsy professionals and parents, it was very clear that a lot of people were interested in having an alarm system that seemed to be as accurate as it was proving, but this would mean throwing everything we had into it.
I have to plan for every possibility with this disease: extra food? Check. medication in hand luggage and in suitcase? Check. Printed list of nearest hospital in case I suddenly go from remission to a flare-up by the time I land? Check. You don't even want to see the size of my hand luggage.
You can try to protect yourself by wearing long sleeves and trousers tucked into socks if you are out in nature. Use a good repellent and carry a tick remover with you. There is more advice on the Lyme Disease UK site.
This public battlefield compounds the nutrition confusion that already overwhelms so many people. If we're not careful, it can lead to a state of inertia. There are so many mixed messages, people don't know what to do and end up not making any healthier changes.
Everything we do at the charity - whether that's our innovative research programmes, or our campaign work - considers how we can do things differently to reach our ambitions and create change more quickly. If there's one health issue that demands some different thinking from all of us, it's dementia.
Nobody likes toothache, and for most people, the thought of having a tooth taken out by the dentist is enough to make them brush twice a day. But there are lots of things that help improve oral health, including not smoking, watching how much you drink and eating a healthy diet, which will help to protect your general health as well.
Balancing training with a hectic lifestyle isn't easy, but it's a reality that most of us have to face. We're not professional athletes, so we can't be in the gym for multiple sessions every day. So, as a result, we have to make the best of what little time we've got.
Over my surgical career I have seen a real change in the way we use antibiotics. Initially we doled them out at every opportunity, not just to treat, but in the hope of preventing infection from surgery.
We both graduated from City University in July 2015 and that summer we started our mission to get this technology into the hands of people and take the skills we learnt during our Biomedical Engineering degree and use it to create a positive impact.

Menopause is a natural phenomenon that occurs when the ovaries stop functioning (i.e. no longer produce eggs and thus estrogen and progesterone hormones). A main symptom is that the woman's menstrual cycle will stop; hence the name: 'menopause' [menstruation pause]. It's a perfectly natural process so nothing to worry about.
It's hard to refute that the epitome of a fit man is someone who has a chiseled mid range you could grate cheese on. Then there are men like me. We are bombarded with the latest craze in Men's magazines and on the Internet, about men having six pack abs. This for me is a stomach churning thought especially as I suffer with IBS.
I've always been drawn to wildness. My infant days were filled with bluebell walks and mangled badger bones kept in jars, while rainy evenings found my little heart caught in the perils of Farthing Wood videos.
Recently I had the rare and shocking privilege of living in an Intensive Care Unit, or ICU, for three months. I was not a patient, nor a member of sta...
Anxiety out of work has bred anxiety in work. My crippling self-awareness of said anxiety in work and out of work has made me anxious to not be visibly anxious therefore ruining my entire life and giving me horrible, tough stomach butterflies in the process.

AbstractThis work concerns the development of a prototype of a Volume Scattering Function (VSF) sensor for measurement of this inherent optical property(IOP) of seawater. The proposed prototype combines new development from Phase-I with our existing technology to extend existing capability for measuring VSF from 0.1 to 20 degrees, out to 170 degrees. We have developed a new and innovative sensor module that permits high sub-degree angular resolution measurement of VSF. The system is simple, yet powerful. For example, it permits programmability of the range of angles to be explored. A case is one of bubbles, which produce a bump in the VSF between 60-180 degrees. The instrument will be self-contained, internally recording, powered by batteries or external power. Beam attenuation coefficient will also be measured. The technology extends existing VSF measurement capability for benefit of NASA's interest in remote sensing.
