As part of the Warner Bros Studio panel at Comic-Con International, a highly-anticipated film was unveiled to the audience. This movie had various qualities that appealed to many different CCI attendees for many different reasons: it was part comic book adaptation, part action-thriller, part spaghetti western and contained supernatural elements. And all present would agree that the film delivered on its main promise â it was fun!
The movie is âJonah Hex,â and it was presented to a packed conference hall by its director, Jimmy Hayward. The filmmaker explained that they just finished shooting their final footage for the project, and added that they literally filmed actress Megan Foxâs last scenes just 48 hours ago.
Hayward said they put this special trailer presentation together for Comic-Con, and, as a fan of comics, it was a dream for him to be presenting in San Diego. The filmmaker made one final promise to the fans gathered â âJonah Hexâ would not be âa slow, dusty western.â And with that, he let the trailer roll...
The bits of the film clips shown seemed to include everything a fan of the character could hope for. It showed actor Josh Brolin (as âJonah Hexâ) prior to the accident which leaves Hex with a hideous facial scar. Fantastic gunfighting action was on full displayâ¦in addition to the display of Megan Foxâs body (she plays a prostitute named Leila in the film). Additional shots included John Malkovichâs villain Turnbull, zombies (of some sort), and a full display of Hexâs deformity.
One of the characters in the film describes Hex as someone who âhas one foot in this world and one foot in the next.â And in addition to gunplay by Hex and a few other cowboys, the audience was able to see Megan Fox do a little shooting of her own in the presentation.
The trailer ended with Hex confronting a villain who asks the gunslinger, âWhat happened to your face?â Hex then throws a knife into the fellowâs forehead and responds, âI cut myself shaving. What happened to yours?â
With that, the lights came up and actors Josh Brolin, Megan Fox, and Michael Fassbender (who plays the villain Burke) came out onto the stage and began answering questions â both from the panel moderator and from fans.
The first query was directed toward Brolin and concerned the reasons he wanted to play Hex. The actor confessed to not being familiar with the comic and admitted, âI used to read Richie Rich.â However, upon learning more about Hex, he said, âI liked how the comic went through three major manifestations. I liked how the studio was a little nervous about (making a movie with the character). I liked how he was an antihero and that the film was a spaghetti western. The whole thing has got circus and absurdity elements to it, and all that got me really excited to do it.â
Megan Fox next talked about how she came to the film, and confessed that she wasnât sure how it happened. She said, âI talked to Josh about the film, and for some reason he felt I was the right actress for it.â
Josh chuckled at this and winked to the audience, âYeah, for some reasonâ¦â
Fox then explained she plays Leila, the love interest of Hex. Sheâs a prostitute that the hero has been visiting for years, and although he does love her, everyone close to Hex dies so he keeps her at a distance. She doesnât understand why he refuses to let her in, and therefore they have a âpush and pullâ type of relationship.
The director then talked a bit about the style of this movie, and said they used spaghetti westerns as a âjumping-off pointâ for what they were trying to do. He promised action elements blended with supernatural elements; however, contrary to online reports, he wanted to inform fans that there are no voodoo practitioners or armies of the undead (despite the few zombie-like folks that did appear in the trailer).
When asked about the most difficult part of the making this movie, Brolin jumped in and responded, âNew Orleans â just getting the crew to the set was tough.â Then the actor added that the whole film was challenging because âyou donât have a model for this particular movie. Itâs a different type of movie. It once came out of my mouth, and I donât know why, but Iâve said itâs a 'fantasmagorium of insanity.'"
âWe didnât have a ton of money to do it. Itâs a movie that â looking at the teaser we were just shown â looks like a $70 million film. It looks pretty amazing, and yet we had less than half that to do itâ¦so we had to get creative. We had to do things on a practical level, and thatâs what we resorted to. This wasnât a big paycheck for the actors by any means, so the actors who did itâ¦it was truly for the love of insanity.â
Insanity, and possibly the fun of it â at least according to Fox. When asked why she seems to be attracted to action films, the actress said, âI love the physicality of it. If you want to smack me or beat my ass, do it.â
âAnd I said to leave your fetishes at work,â Brolin slyly remarked, to boisterous laughter from the audience.
The next audience member to approach the microphone asked the question many Hex fans were wondering: what comic book adventures were used as source material for the movie?
Hayward answered and said that they used a bit of everything from Hexâs mythology â from both his old comics and his newer ones. He even mentioned that current âJonah Hexâ writers Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray came to the set and gave some input. Brolin seemed pleased to add that the daughter of John Albano (who created Jonah Hex) also came to the set and gave her blessing to the production.
Brolin closed by describing how much fun he had making the film. âThereâs an absurd element to this and it allows actors to have a lot of fun because you can get into extremes that you normally wouldnât get into. I really enjoy breaking new ground with things that you donât know how theyâre going to be embraced by audiences.
âConsidering studios are always asking, âWhat can we model this after?â â it seems that when you do something truly original, audiences really appreciate itâ¦I think audiences are a lot smarter than studios give them credit for.â
On that note, the uber-intelligent crowd of the CCI gave the director and cast of âJonah Hexâ one last round of applause before they disappeared into the fading sunsetâ¦otherwise known as stage right of Hall H.

In MySQL, I have a table named "city" with "city_name" and "latitude" and "longitude" in it. It appears that I have a few duplicates. What query can I run (in phpmyadmin) that will search through the "city" table for entries containing the same latitude and longitude (with different "city_name"'s)?
Run the query in mysql directly. First access mysql from command line:
Then select the database you want to use

The date is actually 2-10-2009
2/1954 Enfield .303 (Top)
Model of 1917 Remington 30.06 (Middle)
6-1970 Remington Nylon 66 .22 cal (Bottom)
2 groups shot using my 1917 Enfield by Remington 30-06 rifle.
Open peep sight, not the graduated one but the stationary one.
100 Yards distance!
2nd group after test shot. All went high and left once again but my grouping was much smaller as I tried quite hard to aim at the same spot repeatedly. This was not shot from a bench. It was kneeling and leanint against a stump using the 1917 Enfield with it's original open peep sight flipped down in the forward position.
First group while aiming at center target. They were all high and left.
Here you see a test shot after the first group of 6. I aimed at the Orange target and hit high about 3 inches and left 1.25 inches.
First Group I aimed at the center of the target.
Second group I aimed at the Dot an inch below the Big black square in the center.
30-06 M1917 bedding job after retrofitting the action into a Weatherby Vanguard synthetic stock that I removed from my .300 Win Mag to re-stock it with a Richards Semi-fancy walnut stock. 1-17-10
Larger View of bedding job. Yes the magazine does come out, I just didn't take it out for the pics. Did you notice how nice the bottom of the action form fitted?
The tang and trigger area. Also notice how the top of the bolt ramp came to a sharp point. I still have some fine sanding to do around the edges, but I got in a hurry. This is an example of why you should take your time!
Here you can see the pillar from under the rifle. The bottom metal fits very securely too!
You can see where the epoxy compound filled around the bottom metal nicely. It also snugged the magazine too.
The tang screw hole with pillar installed too. All gaps are filled between the stock and bottom metal too.
The magazine follower after grinding it to allow the bolt to be closed after firing the last round. I re=blued it with a pen bluing product.
Notice the front of the bottom metal is recessed, but I was still able to keep a snug fit between the metal and the synthetic stock without having epoxy paste come over the top of the metal.
Pretty tight fit on the tang screw and metal. I already slipped when I was tightening the screw. What do you expect? The screw is 92 years old and was buggered before I got it.
Here you can see the complete bottom metal and how it sticks out of the bottom of the stock a bit. This allowed me to keep the magazine the original length and still hold 6 rounds and not 5.
Here is a pic of my M1917 after my hokey paint job and bedding job, sporting my new Nikon ProStaff 3-9X40 scope with BDC retical.
Notice the bolt channel. I had to carve that because the .300 WM has a straight handle.
Popcorn anyone?
See tight fit, but could use more fine sanding. I will get to it and repaint the whole rifle.
Bedded front of the action and first inch of the barrel.
Another shot of the tang and bedding
Opposite side bedding of the action and first inch of the barrel.
A little further back showing the bedding of the action. See how snug it fits?
Another shot of the tang from a different angle.
This is 3 shots at 100 Yds. Not bad 'eh?
Same 3 shots at 100 Yds at 1/2 inch. 1-17-10
This is 5 shots at 100 Yds. Just over .75 inches. I'll take it.
Here is the ruler to show the .75 inch. 1-17-10
Does it shoot? Well this is 5 shots at 200 Yds. What do you think?
Here is a ruler to show just how big the spread is. 2.25 inches is pretty good for 200 yards, I think so, anyway. 1-17-10
Here is a better view showing it is more like 2 1/8 inches. I like it. 1-17-10
5 shots at 300 Yds. Could be better. I was getting tired and I think the shots being so far apart, was me, and not the rifle.
Another pic to show it was more like 4.5 inches and not 5 inches. 1-17-10

4-7-10 Contrasting paint on front sight. Looks and works really cool. With light background it looks black or white with black tip dot. With black/dark background it looks white.
4-7-10 The green is just to be different
4-7-10 Can you see the red on the side of the sight blade? No reason, just to be different again!
4-7-10 Front sight tip red.
This was the first stock that arrived from Richard's Microfit Stocks. I had ordered it without air vent holes in the fore-end and with a 9" fore-end. This was not correct, so I sent it back. Pics 1 to 13 are of the stock I sent back.
9-23-10 Here is the replacement stock after rough shaping and inletting. Pics # 14 to 39 are of this stage.
9-28-10 Here is the rifle after smoothing the rough shape and completing the pillar and glass bedding of the action and free floating the barrel for accuracy.
Pic #'s 40 to 60 are all of this stage.
That is so cool! you can see the stamp markings in reverse of what is stamped on the underside of the barrel.
I have a chip to work on. I am not quite sure what I am going to do yet to fix this, but I will figure something out.
11-4-10 Here it is! It is looking as it will when I complete the job. I have some more coats of oil to put on, but this is how I wanted it to look!
Pics 61 thru 77 are uploaded today. I hope you enjoy!
Here is a view through the scope. Sorry its so blurry. I tried! LOL
Here we go. See the sniper Reticle? Each of those little lines near the bulls-eye are 5 MOA apart. This helps range your target!

Beatable? She is.
Yeah, I agree, Hillary running will energize the GOP Base to go out and vote against her despite who the GOP nominates. Or, the GOP is hoping another terrorist attack happens before the election as an effort to galvanize support for Bush and allow him to use those spiffy Presidential Directives he wrote up the past couple of months. Then, who needs elections?
Counter-theory: Democrats want to help Clinton get the Democratic nomination because they think shes beatable in the general election.
Seriously, therer is some kind of weird hardcore to the Democrats that insists on pushing unelectable boring technocrats every time. How else to you explain John Kerry?
She'd make a great VP.
Mind you, a Gore/Obama ticket would be better.
obama & edwards are each better looking than every republican in american combined.
therefore, obama/edwards is unbeatable.
I lost all faith in Democrats a long, long time ago. We're screwed, flat out. The Democrats could have won the next presidential election by default. The only requisite for victory being: not Republican. So what do they do? Put forth a woman and a black man as the two major candidates. Which would be great if there weren't so many racist, sexist, bigoted assholes in America. Gore/Obama would be fine Gore/Clinton would be fine but other than that I can't see them winning fuck all. Hell, I would have preferred Kerry again.
JessB... I think people have been overestimating the racism factor for about twenty years. Sexism has a stronger grip on this country than racism against blacks at this point in history, and Obama on top is an easy win. Clinton, on the other hand... I've heard women say they won't vote for her because she's a woman. That's how fucked up our shit is if she gets the nomination. And I know the DNC is gonna push her on us, big-time. Say hello to President Whitey Q. WhatsHisPants, again.
JessB: I think anyone who wouldn't vote for Obama or Clinton based on the race/woman thing wouldn't vote for them anyways based on their politics.
But it's pretty clear to me they don't want Edwards elected...the only way I can explain the media onslought of criticism...ie, the $400 haircut being mentioned twice as much as Romney's excessive makeup spenditures. A Clinton nomination would bring out the base who hates her. Edwards is too likeable, and is far more likely to change things than Clinton, so besides beatable, she's better for those who want to maintain the status quo.
Many out there don't want to believe it, but Hilary has the best chance to win.
Obama is too much of a neophyte, and will be systematically taken apart by the Republican machine. Edwards is perceived as too lightweight (though he isn't at all, and in a perfect world would be the ideal candidate), and lacks the killer instincts that are necessary to win an election in the Karl Rove era. Gore won't run, and even if he did would be soundly beaten by the corporate interests and raw capital that would align against him.
Make no mistake: It will not be easy for Dems to win back the presidency. Despite the rank incompetence of the last eight years, there are still plenty of voters leaning Republican. They still have the mantle of being tough on terrorists no matter how unearned. ANY Dem candidate will face a hard 40-45% no vote, because of the way voting districts and electoral votes are laid out.
Also, don't confuse anger with the current president with love for Democrats. Lots of folks out there are mad at Bush, yet ready to vote Guiliani/Thompson or some such horrific ticket.
Clinton is the only Dem out there with the name recognition, political muscle, debate skills and campaign experience to beat these assholes. If she can't bring us a Democratic president nobody can.
It will be Clinton/Obama ticket that wins the White House...mark my words. All this talk about Hillary Haters..."Hillary this Hillary that...women won't vote for a woman." Anger, aggression, bitching and moaning blah blah. I am woman and all I ever hear from woman is complaining...all talk no action they love to complain and especially about other women. It is my belief that a womans greatest enemy is another woman. But it won't matter because Hillary will be the next president and Obama will be VP.
Matthew, you're friggin nuts. Now we know where the Democrats get their decision makers from... Name recognition? I know voting jackoffs who think Hillary was part of a murder conspiracy! OJ Simpson has name recognition, too. Debate skills? Did you watch those debates? Campaign experience? Did that help Kerry? You and Lynneland are WAAAAAAAY outta touch with the suburban lower middle class. Places like Bellevue MIGHT vote Hill, but Auburn Kent Tukwila Federal Way etc etc will outnumber those places by a damn sight. She might stand a hope in hell, but I am not willing to gamble on those odds. You don't need ears very close to hear the buzz, and that buzz is Hillary will lose the White House because America hates her more than it hates blacks, jews, and Mexicans combined. That's the retarded reality we have to deal with. She is the best bet for how we're gonna lose this one.
The funny thing is that I can see Mathew already has a defense of his viewpoint in place: that the odds are bad for any Democrat in this political climate. So when Hillary gets the nom and loses, he can think to himself "Well, would've been worse with one of the other guys."
This is the kind of ignorance of the masses that got us a Kerry candidacy last time. People think they're playing it safe, but are really just guaranteeing our candidates are too bland and unappealing to win what's fundamentally a POPULARITY contest.
Oh you poor fools. Are you not paying attention to what is happening around you? The DOJ has purged voter rolls and the House did nothing about the Caging lists. They are trying to install voter machines in King County for the next election and yeah, their are other voter machines out there that will be up and going by next year.
And when people enroll for Welfare benefits they are supposed to also register to vote (or verify that they are: Federal Law) but the Bush administration are encouraging Welfare offices NOT to enforce that regulation since poor people tend to vote for Democrats.
The election (if we have one see the presidential directives this week and from May 19) has already gone to the Republicans.
But hopefully it will be a Gore/Clinton ticket: Gore already won once before, he can do it again.
I'd also like to commend other people for ignoring his posts completely. You've shown more restraint and sense than I could muster. Excelsior!
Oops... comment 13 was meant for another window...
The Republicans haven't been able to defeat a Clinton in quite some time. I'm not sure why they would think they could now.
Clinton beats the fuck out of every single GOP candidate in head to head polls. Mind you, all three front runners do (and perhaps Richardson will now that he's in third place in New Hampshire, ahead of Edwards), so it doesn't matter too much. I mean, the top four are all really good candidates, and ten out of eleven on the GOP side want the war to continue as is.
Well, Gitai... I hope that holds true til the last. More GOP rule will make a Canadian of me. That we have Bush in office right now is heartbreaking enough, years after that election.
Hey christopher @ 11,
Your main point seems to be that the presidential election is a popuarity contest, and that Clinton isn't popular hence, she can't win. I think that's dangerously misguided. Karl Rove and the previous Republican Senate have weighted the electoral deck in the Republicans' favor over the years by careful management of voting districts in swing states like Ohio and Florida. They know that this country is (and really always has been) split roughly 45-45, with the middle 10% being all that's left to work with.
Maybe someday we'll have a candidate with the massive popularity it will take to successfully escape that paradigm and rally large majorities to their side. But we are not in that phase right now. And besides, do you really think any of the Democrats (or anybody) running right now command that level of cross-electorate enthusiasm?
Popularity is part of the battle, of course. But usually, given the reality of the way the voting public is split, modern national elections are won by the candidate with the most money, the most cunning and the fastest response teams. Hilary has the best combination of those traits.
When it comes to the Machiavellian, immoral tactics the Republicans use to undermine their opponents, pragmatism is the way to go. Kerry got beat because nobody was going to beat Bush in 2004, not while a "war" was underway. He was still the best candidate for the Dems, though. What, you think fucking Dean was going to do it? Hey, I love Dean. But if you think he wouldn't have lost in a landslide in 2004, you're kidding yourself.
I take exception also to your comments about Hilary's debate skills. Hilary is by far the best debater of anybody in the current Dem field. You're basing your opinion (I presume) on how she did in the recent debates against other Dems, which isn't her strength. But up against Republicans? She'll cream them. Or at least hold her own. Are you saying you'd rather see Obama up there trying to handle the likes of Mr. 9/11 Giuliani? Good luck.
I'm not saying Hilary is guaranteed to win. She's not. She just has the best chance to win, given the current political environment.
Apologies for the continual misspelling of "Hillary" in the last post...thanks.
Hillary rocks. Gore lost or meta-lost an election that should have been a blowout. Edwards and Obama are touchy feely new age candidates who have yet to show that they can take on the Republican attack dogs. There's a lot of time between now and Iowa/NH, but for now... Hillary's my man.

Talk:Daniel David Palmer
|This is the talk page for discussing improvements to the Daniel David Palmer article.
This is not a forum for general discussion of the article's subject.

|Archives: 1
|This article is of interest to the following WikiProjects:
|A fact from this article was featured on Wikipedia's Main Page in the On this day... section on September 18, 2004, September 18, 2005, and September 18, 2006.
According to accounts by Palmer himself, he was apparently born "just east of Toronto". However, most other sources point to Port Perry…

The only claim for Pickering is a single website that states quite plainly that it's a work in progress.
I suggest changing the article.
Maury Markowitz (talk) 15:15, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
- Based on this updated URL: here, the article appears correct. However, I should point out that I have found a reference to "Ira Palmer" as the postmaster of Balsam Ontario here, and this is closer to Pickering than PP. Maury Markowitz (talk) 13:20, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
Ok, I have no idea that my weekend shopping trips to Port Perry would result in this, but….
I have re-written the LEAD. The LEAD should contain a summary of the important points in the body. Most importantly, if it's in the LEAD it has to be in the body, and the mention there should generally be longer than the mention in the LEAD. Palmer meeting Still wasn't even mentioned in the body at all, which I have corrected to the degree I could. I believe this topic needs to be greatly expanded in the body. I really don't know anything about these topics, but the development of one from the other seems clear, and failing to mention this connection would be similar to talking about the development of evolution without mentioning Lyell.
I have added a single explanatory statement about osteopathy in the LEAD, but I am not convinced it should remain. I added it because it sets the stage for his spinal manipulation shortly thereafter, and without this its not entirely clear why this is important. I could be convinced that the entire section should be in the body only, but I'll leave that for others to decide. In any event, the major mention in the LEAD and nowhere else was a problem.
I have changed several refs. Practically everything I found about the birthplace controversy ended up tracing itself back to a single article by Paul Arculus. I've talked to Paul on several occasions (he wrote about the PW&PPR, which is what started me on the path to this page) and consider him to be a veritable font of knowledge on the area. Other references, notably Keating, appear to be based entirely on Arculus' article. Keating also made several "extrapolations" of the work that are entirely misleading. I believe everyone is best served by reading the original, which is both accurate and detailed. I have left in the pointer to the wag source, which I believe is otherwise unreliable, but Arculus doesn't mention Palmer's mother's maiden name!
The body still requires expansion!
Maury Markowitz (talk) 15:33, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
- I would think that rather than being based on Arculus' article, I would think that the information is based on the works of Herb Vear, Vear, Herbert J. The Canadian genealogy of Daniel David Palmer. Chiropractic Journal of Australia 1997 (Dec);27(4):138-46.
Vear, Herbert J. The Canadian genealogy of Daniel David Palmer: an update. Chiropractic Journal of Australia 1998 (June);28(2):42. - if you are interested in further work on this article, you may want to check these articles out? DigitalC (talk) 16:58, 6 February 2012 (UTC)
Digital, the mention of the janitors name is precisely the sort of trivia that should not be in the LEAD, but in the body. If you feel it really has to be mentioned (and it doesn't IMHO) then move it to the proper location! Maury Markowitz (talk) 15:36, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
- Honestly, it doesn't matter to me if it is mentioned in the lead as long as it is in the body of the article, but we cannot go around stating that a manipulation cured deafness - we have to follow WP:NPOV. DigitalC (talk) 16:55, 6 February 2012 (UTC)
Orphaned references in Daniel David Palmer[edit]
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Daniel David Palmer's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "Ernst-eval":

Milwaukee Rep's 'Clybourne Park' an electrifying production
Because "Clybourne Park" is so good and because it explores issues that aren't going away, it's easy to agree with Mark Clements' prediction - made in his director's notes for the new Milwaukee Repertory Theater production - that Bruce Norris' play is built to last.
It's much harder to imagine watching the inevitable revival, 10 or 20 years from now, without hearkening back to the electrifying performance I saw Friday night, in which Clements' all-star cast gave "Clybourne" the treatment it deserves. »Read Full Article(1)

in that cover :)
The normal version works fine- no complaints. However, in mobile version it displays giant ugly YOUR AD HERE! boxes all over the page. Why would any website owner want a user to see that? Why not just leave a blank box? Obviously we can tell when there's no ad on a page. We don't need to air dirty laundry.
After I installed this, it took me weeks to notice that my mobile site bounce rate had gone to 100% and no mobile users were staying on my page more than 5 seconds. This plugin literally killed my mobile version.

You may be struggling to shed those last 10 pounds before bathing suit season arrives, but that doesn't mean you have to swear off sweets for good. So why not treat yourself to a slice of a delicious semi-sweet chocolate creation? Kathleen Daelemans is the author of "Cooking Thin with Chef Kathleen: 200 Easy Recipes for Healthy Weight Loss," and she discusses her approach to healthy cooking and weight loss on "Today." Sample some of her recipes below.
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled
- Extra-virgin olive oil or nonstick vegetable spray
- Coarse-grained salt and cracked black pepper
- 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
Baking Directions:
You won't miss Mc-You-Know-Who's fries a bit once you make this delicious alternative. These are so quick to prepare and so deeply satisfying, you'll be surprised at how simple it is to add another side dish to the evening meal.PREHEAT oven to 400F. Cut sweet potatoes crosswise into 1 1/4-inch-thick slices. Place only enough olive oil on a cookie sheet to prevent sweet potatoes from sticking.ARRANGE sweet potatoes in a single layer on cookie sheet. Turn them over once before baking to ensure that both sides are coated with oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Bake until golden, turning once and seasoning undersides with salt and pepper at halfway point, about 25 minutes total.WHILE the potatoes are in the oven, in a small bowl toss together parsley, garlic, lemon zest, and a bit more salt and pepper. Taste. Adjust seasonings.TRANSFER cooked potatoes to a large bowl; add parsley mix. Working quickly, toss potatoes to coat evenly; place back on cookie sheet in a single layer. Bake for an additional 2 minutes, which will take peppery bite out of the garlic.SHORTCUT CHEF Peel and slice the sweet potatoes, place in a plastic bag, drizzle with olive oil, seal the bag, and then shake and turn to coat with oil. Keep refrigerated. Make the parsley, garlic, and lemon zest mix ahead, too.
If you drizzle the olive oil a teaspoon at a time onto the cookie sheet and use a paper towel to distribute it, you'll find that you use considerably less oil.If you don't feel like fussing with the parsley, garlic, and lemon zest part of the recipe, don't. The sweet potatoes are fantastic with or without the seasonings.
- 8 bamboo skewers (see sidebar on facing page)
- 1 pound medium or large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 4 teaspoons plus 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 6 to 7 ears corn, shucked
- 8 scallions
- Coarse-grained salt and cracked black pepper
- 2 red bell peppers
- 8 to 12 cups loosely packed salad greens
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
Baking Directions:
You know how I'm always telling you to throw extra veggies on the grill to get a jump start on tomorrow's dinner? This is one of those recipes. If you've got the BBQ fired up, it's always safe to throw on a few extra red peppers. Choose the sweetest corn you can get your hands on. By all means choose a variety of lovely, flavorful, sweet and peppery salad greens. Iceberg just won't do. If you're not sure what constitutes sweet and peppery, ask the nearest produce person. Bring home different lettuce varieties and try them out.PREHEAT grill. Skewer shrimp by holding 2 skewers side by side and slightly apart and threading each shrimp onto both skewers, which will make them easier to work with on the grill. Rub shrimp with 2 teaspoons of olive oil and set aside in refrigerator.PLACE corn cobs and scallions in a plastic bag (I use the one I bought them in). Pour 2 teaspoons olive oil into bag and season with salt and pepper. Seal bag. Shake and turn bag to distribute oil and seasonings evenly.WHEN grill is ready, place red peppers over hottest flames and cook, turning, until charred on all sides. Place in plastic bag. When cool enough to handle, peel, stem, and seed peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces, and place in a very large salad bowl.WHILE peppers are roasting, grill corn, scallions, and shrimp. When corn is cooked and cool enough to handle, cut kernels from cobs directly into bowl with red peppers. Thinly slice scallions (white and green parts) and add to bowl with vegetables. Remove shrimp from skewers and add to bowl. Add greens to bowl. Pour lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, and remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil over salad. Toss until all ingredients are evenly distributed. Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve immediately.SHORTCUT CHEFWhisk the vinaigrette together ahead of time, shuck the corn at the store, skewer the shrimp the night before, and/or clean the lettuces and the scallions, too. Do the following only if it's the difference between your trying this recipe or not: use frozen corn, prewashed packaged lettuces, and/or jarred roasted, peeled peppers. Freshest is always best, but you knew that.
If the queen's coming for dinner: Choose delicate salad greens, such as fancy mixed greens or arugula. Toss lettuces separately, divide among serving plates, and serve chopped salad in center of greens.Roast the peppers first, throw them right into the plastic bag they came in, close the bag, and let them steam so they're ready to peel when you're through grilling. Grilled, peeled, stems removed, cored, and seeded, they keep well in the refrigerator or freezer, covered tightly.Soak bamboo skewers in water the night before or at least 1 hour ahead so they won't burn (at least that's the theory). I've found that they don't burn as quickly and it does make a difference, but if you forget, proceed anyway. You won't lose any shrimp on the barbie.If you've got a great sense of adventure and a little extra time on your hands, add other vegetables to your heart's desire. All of the summer squashes, any sweet onion, or any meaty mushroom (white button, brown, portobello, shiitake, or porcini) would be a delicious addition to this salad.
- 1 pound ground white meat chicken
- 2 cups coarse to fine fresh bread crumbs
- 1 1/2 cup low-fat milk
- 3 tablespoons grated sweet onion (or finely, finely minced)
- 1 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 3 1/4 teaspoon coarse-grained salt
- Cracked black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Baking Directions:
You never could have talked me into chicken burgers in my past life. I was a Whopper-with-cheese kind of girl. These chicken burgers are so profoundly flavorful I've given up fast food burgers for good. Okay, for the most part. You may be tempted to serve these hamburger style on a bun but they're devilishly good on their own.PLACE chicken in a mixing bowl. Using a rubber spatula, fold in 1 1/2 cup bread crumbs, milk, onion, ayenne, salt, and pepper to taste. Mixture will be very wet, so it will be a bit icky forming it into patties, but forge ahead. Place remaining 1 1/2 cups bread crumbs on a dinner plate or cookie sheet. Divide chicken mixture into 4 or 5 piles (you decide which portion size is best for you) and, using your hands, shape into patties. Coat each patty with bread crumbs. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and when hot, fry patties until golden and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Serve immediately.
Guyometer: Now you're talking! Be sure to use ground white meat chicken. If you're buying your ground chicken from the grocery store, ring the bell and ask if they've got what you're looking for or if they'll grind some chicken breast for you. You can also grind it yourself in a food processor. Remove all excess fat and cartilage from boneless, skinless chicken breast and tenders, cut into 1-inch cubes, and pulse until coarsely chopped. Make a double or triple batch and freeze individual patties. Be sure to portion them out properly. As we know, size matters.From Mom's lips to your ears You can make fresh bread crumbs ahead. It takes only a few extra minutes. Remove the crusts from good bread (or don't remove the crusts), tear into chunks, and pulse in a mini chopper or food processor. Make a giant batch and freeze it so next time you can skip this step.
For Crust
- 1 1/4 cups fine cookie crumbs (graham cracker or chocolate wafer cookies)
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon water
For Filling
- 8 ounces semisweet chocolate chips (1 1/2 cups)
- 1 1/4 cup brewed espresso or strong coffee
- 12 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup cherry pie filling
Baking Directions:
While testing a dozen recipes for cheesecake using low-fat dairy products, I was disappointed over and over again with the less-than-satisfactory flavors and textures. Nothing tastes as good as the real thing, so I got out fresh eggs, real cream cheese, and semisweet chocolate and made this delicious chocolate cherry cheesecake I know you'll enjoy. Most cheesecakes are made in 9- or 10-inch springform pans and call for double the amount of fat and sugar I use here. I reduced the ingredients and the pan size. This way you can enjoy a smaller portion and fewer calories. Send leftovers to your neighbors or to the office so you won't be tempted to eat slices of cheesecake until it's gone. PREHEAT oven to 350F.PREPARE CRUST: In a medium mixing bowl, combine crumbs and sugar. Stir until combined. Add melted butter and water; mix until completely incorporated. Pour crumb mixture into an 8-inch springform pan. Using fingertips, press evenly onto pan bottom and 1/2 inch up sides. Bake 12 to 15 minutes, until crust hardens slightly. Set aside to cool. Reduce oven temperature to 300F. Place a 9-inch cake pan filled with water on bottom oven rack (this will add moisture to oven so cake will be creamy and dense, not dried out).PREPARE THE FILLING: In a heavy-bottomed pan, heat chocolate chips and coffee over lowest heat, stirring often, until chocolate is completely melted, 7 to 9 minutes. Cool.IN a mixing bowl, with an electric mixer on medium speed, beat cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add sugar and salt. Beat on medium speed 1 minute. Scrape down sides and add eggs, one at a time, beating on medium for 30 seconds and scraping down sides of bowl between each addition. Add melted chocolate mixture and vanilla to bowl, scrape down sides once more, and beat on medium 1 minute. Pour batter into crust. Bake on middle rack for 60 to 65 minutes, or until internal temperature reads 170F. Take cake's temperature by inserting an instant-read thermometer into center of cake. Turn oven off and let cake stand in oven for 20 minutes more. Remove from oven and cool for 20 minutes on a wire rack. Refrigerate 1 hour. Then freeze 1 hour.CUT into 12 slices, topping each slice with 1 tablespoon cherry pie filling just before serving. Alternatively, after cheesecake refrigerates for 1 hour, pour entire can of cherry pie filling over cake and refrigerate 2 hours more, or until cake and topping are set.
