Don't Waste Your Life
John Piper (Author)
Paperback: 192 pages
Publisher: Crossway Books (January 31, 2010)
Point: This one life you have to live is much bigger than the American dream. In short, if you do not seek to glorify God and enjoy Him forever, you will lose.
Path: Piper exhorts believers through his own testimony, Biblical examples, the writings of Jonathan Edwards, stories from war, and a look at missions. He shows how entertainment is numbing our mind and how an 8-5 job can bring glory to God.
Sources: The great theologian, Jonathan Edwards, holds a prominent place in this work, as well as nearly every other by Piper. He also quotes from Ralph Winter, C.S. Lewis, B.B. Warfield, and Bunyan.
Agreement: Piper is right on as he evaluates the pathetic life purpose of most evangelicals today. We aspire to meaningless, shallow, trite pleasures which hold no candle to the blazing glory of God. His question demands serious reflection - will my life be wasted?
Personal Application: What in my life is done out of self ambition, self pleasure, or self preservation? Too much! My life will be a waste unless I consciously seek to lay it down in the pursuit of knowing and loving my Savior. My life purpose is reflected in how I spend my money, how I use my time, how I think of others, and how I work each day.
(Note: nearly all of Pipers books are available for PDF download here)

St Patrick's Day, is a cultural and religious holiday celebrated on March 17 every year in Ireland. However, this time, celebrations kicked off early. The Irish Society in Uganda, an umbrella body for the Irish citizens living across the country, kick started the weekend-long celebrations on Friday at Bubbles O'leary's, Kololo.
This event evidently created space for the expats to come together to celebrate their heritage and culture. They, together with a few Ugandans shared friendship, experiences from all walks of life and also shared the Irish culture.
The drizzly cold evening was warmed and brought to life by the Wild Geese Band that was flown into the country on Tuesday.
Revellers looked comfy in their seats. Some had folded their hands, others pocketed while chatting the night away with a cold beer. But when the Wild Geese took to the stage, it was different. They seemingly related to the sophiscated music this band was playing.
Consequently abandoning their seats and dancing the night away with all sorts of strokes that would cross their minds.
This band was not here to play only their recordS. It was about entertaining the crowd and making sure everyone had fun. They keenly delivered all sorts of music genres ranging from blues, jazz blues to the traditional Irish culture music. The best moment of the night was when the band did a mash up of Lana Del Rey's Summer Time. Everyone sang along with their hands up in the air.
Also, the best Irish food came with an entry ticket that cost Shs60,000 at the gate. The mouthwatering food was a cocktail of artisan Irish cheeses, pounded potatoes, beef and vegetables. The thirst was quenched by Guinness, a world renowned Irish brand that was first brewed in Dublin in 1759.

This Ain't My Party
Political pundits are chewing their manicures off trying to figure out how the Democratic Party became the biggest loser in this year's election. What's going on out there in flyover country that resulted in epic losses for the Democrats on both a state and federal level? They could, of course, travel about the country and talk to a sample of working and middle class people, but that would just be silly. Instead they've taken to the airwaves and interweb with a whole bunch of theories.
The most popular is the angry white man theory. Yep, it's all Travis Bickle's fault. He's got a chip on his shoulder because technology, globalization and the gig-centric Uber economy have denied him the comfortable, middle-class life his parents had. But hey, he needs to get real and realize it's his own fault and he should've taken out $50k in loans for college and then he wouldn't be so ignorant as to vote Republican.
Then there's the related "white-lash" theory: the white working class lashed back against a changing country. They're threatened by the "browning" of America and the fact that we had a black president (who was half white, but whatever). They reject political correctness not out of concern for their civil liberties, but because they want to go around hollering racial slurs. And those blue collar slobs should've been grateful that thanks to Obama they have affordable healthcare except it's not really affordable. Oh well, if they're complaining about paying twice as much out-of-pocket or sky-high deductibles or the fact that their doctors no longer accept their insurance it's probably just because they're a bunch of racists.
But what about all those people waving "Blacks for Trump" and "Latinos for Trump" signs? Oh, they were probably confused so who cares about those folks anyway. And what about people like Dr. Cornel West and Tavis Smiley who were anti-Trump but also vocally critical of Obama and opposed Hillary Clinton? Ignore them, they just don't understand.
There's the Weimar theory: that those ignorant rubes just can't figure anything out so they're looking for a strong-man authoritarian to solve all of their problems. Never mind that a lot of those folks have strong objections to limitations of their civil liberties and opposed Obama's autocratic methods, all they want is a dictator.
The pundits can't seem to figure out what's going on in the Rust Belt. They don't understand those incorrigible Southerners at all, but they're just a bunch of Bible-beatin' rednecks who're looking for people to lynch anyway. And they completely forgot the Southwest was even there until BREAKING BAD came on.
Now, I don't have the benefit of an Ivy League education like those other jokers - I got my paralegal certificate from Earl K. Long College (go fighting crawdads!) - but I think I have a theory of my own.
I grew up in Red State-land and I've been a loud-mouthed power-to-the-little-guy banker-punching populist Democrat my whole life. My parents were both proud Democrats - after all, the Democratic Party was the party of the working man.
Unfortunately, that's no longer true.
What was once the party of the factory workers, the farmers, skilled tradesmen and small businessmen is now the party of Wall Street bankers, Silicon Valley billionaires, the Hollywood elite and spoiled trust fund brats who need coloring books and blankies to help them deal with micro-agressions, whatever the hell that is.
The party once epitomized the values of Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson and William Jennings Bryan - more direct democracy, a government by the people, pro-worker, anti-globalist, anti-war, equal opportunities for all and special privileges for none. However, now it espouses the ideals of Hamilton: elitist, authoritarian, corporatist, pro imperialist wars. They'd like to exile all those unpleasant working class people to Siberia and create a beautiful America where a bunch of hedge-fund managers and illegal aliens all get naked together and sing "This Land Is Your Land."
Looking at today's Democratic Party, I haven't seen a group this despicable since Marie Janisse's ex-boyfriends got together to form that Los Lobos tribute band.
And as much as what was said about the Deplorables, I found the Obama/Clinton devotees a lot more frightening; those folks have a bloodthirsty fervor that rivals the Manson Family.
I've got a gaggle of Obamatons at my office and normally I keep my mouth shut around them because I've been tarred and feathered before and it wasn't fun. But after listening to a string of sneering epithets about "those ignorant people", "blue collar slobs" and "racist rednecks" (it was either the people who voted for Trump or the Bernie Sanders supporters who refused to vote for Hillary, I couldn't really tell) followed by gushing accolades about President Obama being the best president in the history of the United States, I couldn't stands no more.
"Only if you think appointing a cabinet full of Citibank and Goldman Sachs executives, signing a taxpayer funded bailout for the architects of The Great Recession, a healthcare bill that's a giveaway to the insurance companies, bringing down the hammer on whistle-blowers and trying to ramrod a super-secretive global-corporatist anti-democratic trade bill through Congress is a legacy to be proud of," I said.
And then as a smell of ozone crept into the air, a low growl emerged from their collective throats as their lips curled back to reveal their fangs. Their hands curled into talons and their eyes began to flicker and roll like a lizard's.
"You must be some crazy redneck racist!" they screeched. "You just don't understand!"
Yeah, I think I do.
And that's the other thing -- this foul new breed has two defenses when confronted with a dissenting opinion, either:
1) Accuse the dissenter of being a racist to shut them up. I find this abhorrent for so many reasons. Racism is a serious problem, not some flippant label to be tossed around like a volleyball.
2) You don't understand. The only reason you dare disagree is because you're ignorant.
Rather than championing the working class, today's Democratic Party despises them.
One of the Office Obamatons said she opposed raising wages because why should someone who didn't even get an advanced degree deserve the same standard of living a doctor a lawyer is entitled to? Besides, she said a higher minimum wage would raise the price of goods and we'd have rampant inflation.
"The price of goods is going up and we have rampant inflation anyway," I said. "When only a few corporations have ownership of everything prices go up because there's no competition."
"You just don't understand," she said. "It's not like you went to law school."
The reason people in middle America have abandoned the Democratic Party is that the party turned its back on them decades ago. With its economic elitism, imperialist warmongering and shrieking self-righteousness on social issues, it's no longer a good fit for them.
The Democratic Party isn't the party of the people anymore. And it really needs to check its class privilege.
And speaking of uncomfortable parties, the second film in this regional horror film bonanza is SCREAMS OF A WINTER'S NIGHT (1979) made in Natchitoches, Louisiana. You used to be able to get some good meat pies there. Ten college kids head out in a van for a weekend at a cabin in the woods near the allegedly haunted Lake Durand. For some reason surprised that spending the weekend in the woods means they'll be out in the middle of the woods (jeeze, people, what did you think was going to happen?), they decide to spend the evening telling scary stories.
The first is the weakest of the bunch, a re-telling of "The Hook" urban legend with a bigfoot monster added to the mix. The second tale is my favorite of the bunch in which three boys pledging a fraternity must spend the night in an old abandoned hotel that's reputed to be haunted. Sure, it's nothing new, but it's got great atmosphere: it's all dread, creaking stairs and long hallways with looming shadows. And I can't put my finger on why, but there's something about the ending that gives me a serious case of the creeps.
The last story is the tale of a shy young woman who snaps and kills her date after he attempts to rape her. The incident leaves a mark on her fragile psyche and years later, she's driven to kill again. The story has no dramatic arc and the ending is completely abrupt, but I think that's the point.
It's not a perfect movie by any means, but what it lacks in the script department, SCREAMS OF A WINTER'S NIGHT makes up for in dread-filled atmosphere. It evokes the feeling of being at a party where the conversation is riddled with awkward silences and insidious little jabs, the hosts insist on serving a vegan menu and you can't leave and go home because the person who drove you there already passed out drunk in the bathtub. In a neat twist, the characters in the vignettes are all played by the same actors who play the kids in the wraparound stories. There's something twisted about the kids making up ways for their friends to die.
With echoes of THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE and elements that predate THE EVIL DEAD, one of the things that makes SCREAMS OF A WINTER'S NIGHT so unsettling is its apocalyptic view of the universe. In many anthology horror films, the misdeeds of the characters are punished with an Old Testament-style justice. However, in SCREAMS OF A WINTER'S NIGHT, bad things happen completely at random and without much reason and explanation. The universe isn't a nice place; it doesn't give a damn about you. In fact, it's all too willing to smack you down just to prove it can. The film opens with credits over a black screen accompanied by a cataclysmic barrage of voices, howls, wind, animal cries, screams, gunshots and weeping children. It immediately catches the viewer off-balance as we're instinctively alerted to danger by the sounds but have no sense of where we are or the source of danger. It reminds me of the opening of THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE, which used a barrage of radio news broadcasts detailing random acts of violence and industrial accidents to depict a world defined by chaos. However, in CHAIN SAW, human beings were the cause of all of the mayhem, while in SCREAMS, there are supernatural forces at work. The supernatural happenings at Lake Durand supposedly date back to the time when Native Americans still occupied the land.
The land may have been colonized - but natural forces will not be tamed. It makes sense this film would come out of Louisiana where you're completely at the mercy of the elements: floods, humidity of epic proportions, mosquitos, kamikaze flying roaches and the lingering fear that the state could be wiped off the map next hurricane season. Some people wonder why anyone would want to live in such conditions. Why don't those yahoos just move somewhere sensible like Connecticut? And to those jerks I would respond a powerful sense of history and pride in unique culture and tradition has a strong hold. Louisiana is the kind of place that gets in your blood. Hell, I'd move back there in a shot if I weren't dodging that outstanding warrant.
Though the tales at its center may be a little weak, the all-hell-breaks loose finale totally makes up for it. Despite its clunkiness, I really enjoyed SCREAMS OF A WINTER'S NIGHT. It has never been released on DVD, but I think that worn-out VHS-filtered-through-YouTube picture that has the same color palette as a healing bruise just enhances its uneasy charm.

Hi all
This evening I decided that I would just visit the Apple Store in Regent Street, a day after Steve Jobs announced the iPhone launch in the UK. I thought I would just browse the iPods again and see the models and how the response is still.
I decided to go upstairs to check out the iPod Nanos which I opted not to get in favour for the iPod Classic (which I am enjoying by the way). But then something interesting was going on…there were a few customers trying a device using their fingers…what could that mean???
Yes! They have the iPod Touch in stores right now!!! And this evening, I had a chance to try out an iPod Touch! Check the photo out for the genuine article! As you can see, I am holding one of the coolest devices ever made in the iPod range (other than the iPhone).
What do I think? It is actually a brilliant device! The iPod Touch is thin, the features are amazing and it is definitely something I am considering getting (I would describe the features when I get the iPod Touch)! Unfortunately, the iPod Touch is too popular! A customer asked if they had the 16Gb model in stock…but they had all sold out and would get more tomorrow! Pity, it could have been a big event!!! Never mind, it is definitely something on my list of purchases!
Meanwhile, downstairs, in the store, a lot of people where around the table trying this cool device!
Has anyone got hold of the 16Gb iPod Touch? What do you think? Are you amazed or disappointed? Let me know…before I actually get hold of one!!!

Theun-Hinboun hydropower dam to increase capacity production
(KPL) The Theun-Hinboun Power Company will expand its capacity production of electricity to 500 MW from 200 MW by constructing more hydropower dam along Nam Youang river.
The Nam Nguang river is located at upper part of Thuen-Hinboun river which will be released to Thuen-Hinboun hydropower dam.
A memorandum of understanding on developing the Thuen-Hinboun hydropower expansion project, was signed this month between Theun-Hinboun Power Company and the Lao Government.
The Nam Nguang hydropower construction project is 700 metres north of Ban Thatsala village of Khamkuet district is opposite of Viengthong district in Bolikhamsay province.
At present the construction of dam have progressed many fields and it is a high possible for the construction next year.
A coordinator project of Thuen Hinboun Power Company, Mr Bounma Molakhasouk said on 18 October that the project has so far paid attention to conduct a survey and other data collection of environment impact and resettlement.
The Theun Hinboun Hydropower dam produced in 1998 but the Theun Hinboun Power Company has decided to expand its project due to the Nam Theun 2-dam construction which cause to the water level of Theun Hinboun dam decreased.
The preparation will kick off early 2008 till to September the construction will be conducted and it expects to be completed by 2010.

Nikki Slade Robinson, Muddle & Mo's Worm Surprise, Starfish Bay Children's Books, April 2017, 40pp., $24.99 (hbk), ISBN 9781760360306
Muddle & Mo's Worm Surprise is a surprise indeed. This unassuming little book is positively brimming with delight and beauty.
The endearing duck and goat return to us and, this time, Muddle the duck is planning a picnic. Worm Surprise is on the menu and Mo is looking a little dubious at the thought. Muddle has a glorious time collecting a smorgasbord of worms for the picnic but Mo grows more and more anxious. By the time Muddle has dragged Mo to the perfect picnic place, at the top of a hill, the herbivorous goat is looking downright despondent.
The surprise, of course, is that Muddle is a thoughtful little duck who has prepared a delicious feast of greens for his friend and the two enjoy a fun afternoon together.
The restrained text consists solely of dialogue in two different fonts, one for each of the characters. This makes it a treat to read out loud – complete with character voices – to preschoolers, who will also delight in the simple but expressive faces of the goat and duck. The refrain of "read it again" is pretty much guaranteed with this gem.

124th Oxford/Cambridge match
As per usual, South Africa has it's fair share of representation in the annual Cambridge/Oxford match at Twickenham. For those who have never seen it, it is an amazing occassion, to see 40 000 fans, often more, turn out for a university match is great. Almost every year without fail there is a South African in at least one team, usually in both. As far as I recall, Nick Mallett played in this match in his time. Quite often the captain of one or other team has been a South African. Today's match sees four South Africans participating. One wonders what will become of the rugby career of these boys later?
The 124th University Match at Twickenham today, for which a crowd of almost 40,000 is expected, brings to a conclusion the most enduring sponsorship agreement in world rugby.
And Cambridge, who start as narrow favourites, will be only too happy if they repeat their victory of 1976 - the first occasion that the teams played for the Bowring Bowl - after winning only one of the past six encounters
Following Marsh and McLennan's takeover of C T Bowring, the Bowring Bowl has become the MMC Trophy, but the association between the sponsors and the universities has continued to be enormously beneficial to all three.
The face of rugby has changed to such an extent since 1976 that the University Match has become an even more anachronistic fixture in an increasingly hectic schedule, and it is all the more appealing for that.
No less than 77 international players have adorned the fixture during the past 30 years, with a World Cup-winning captain - David Kirk, in 1988 - among them. For the majority, however, it still offers the biggest rugby stage of their lives.
With Jon Ufton, the former Wasps player, at fly-half and John Blaikie, who has played for Otago Highlanders in the Super 12 competition, in the engine room, the Light Blues field the more experienced side today but it promises to be yet another close contest.

Is that Nic Alberts from Afrikaans Seuns? If so then I know his old man. He's one of the 'groot koppe' at PWC SA.
I know the Bulls were looking to contract him, but Dad insisted education first.

My intention in creating this blog is two-fold:
1. Learn how to create and manage a blog
2. Bring some type of order to my workspace (my PC desktop image suggests the bigger problem)
If Spring is a time for cleaning, then there is no better opportunity to make this brave journey. Heaven knows: I definitely don't have an excuse to prolong the inevitable.
Something has got to be done.
To put it into TV terms, my work area is far removed from anything you would see on The Office and much closer to what you would see in the front yard on Sanford and Son.
Wish me luck.

Defining a Function
This is the basic template that should be used for any functions.
function Verb-Noun { [CmdletBinding()] param( [Parameter(Mandatory=$true,ValueFromPipeline=$true)] [string]$Something ) BEGIN{} PROCESS{} END{} }
Process Order
The BEGIN and END blocks only run once. The PROCESS block will act differently depending on how you call the function.
#Will execute the PROCESS block only once for $Input. #Therefore if $Input is an array you will need a foreach loop to handle each object. Verb-Noun -Input $Input #Will execute the PROCESS block once for each element of $Input as it is piped into the function one by one. $Input | Verb-Noun
Cmdlet Binding
Using the [CmdletBinding()] tag allows the use of -Verbose but you can also set more advanced features such as the SupportsShouldProcess
function Verb-Noun{ [CmdletBinding()] param() }
Defining Parameters
The following are the different options you can set when defining a paramter. Note that Options of the same type can be added to the same line within the brackets separated by a ","
function verb-noun{ param( [parameter(Mandatory=$true)] [parameter(Position="1")] [parameter(ValueFromPipeline=$true)] [parameter(ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName=$true)] [parameter(HelpMessage="String")] [parameter(ParameterSetName = '')] [Alias(Name1,Name2)] [ValidateCount(Min,Max)] [ValidateLength(Min,Max)] [ValidatePattern(regexString)] [ValidateRange(Min,Max)] [ValidateSet("Steve","Mary")] [ValidateScript({Script Block to $True/$False})] [String / Int / Array]$ParamName ) }
Parameter Set Name
You can define differences in your accepted parameters and give them set name. Powershell will then allow the paramameters to be entered in different ways, eg. pipeline vs. long params. This forces the parameters to be fed into your function how you wish.
function Verb-Noun { [CmdletBinding(DefaultParameterSetName = 'Going')] param( [parameter(Mandatory=$true)] $Name, [parameter(ParameterSetName='Going')] [switch]$Go, [parameter(ParameterSetName='Stopping')] [switch]$Stop ) if($Go){ Write-Host "Go" } elseif($Stop){ Write-Host "Stop" } else{ Write-Host "?" } Write-Host "$($PSCmdlet.ParameterSetName)" }
Dynamic Paramters
Dynamic parameters can greatly help end users in using your custom functions. Below is a quick example of the syntax used, for a worked example on how to implement dynamic parameters see my Github
Function Verb-Noun { Param () DynamicParam { #Define all Dynamic Parameters in this block $DynamicParams = New-Object System.Management.Automation.RuntimeDefinedParameterDictionary Return $DynamicParams } PROCESS { } }
There are a few ways of writing output. The most common is for when writing a function that returns multiple objects as output.
New-Object -TypeName PSObject -Property @{ 'Label 1' = $param 'Label 2' = $Param.property 'Label 3' = Some Calculation } | Add-Member -TypeName 'Something.Something' -PassThru #Or you can use the Type Accelerator [PSCustomObject]@{ StartType = $SvcStartType Something = 2048/1GB } | Add-Member -TypeName 'Something.Something' -PassThru
Output Streams
You can also write to the console using different streams. This is good to avoid writing multiple types of output from a function as this is best practise. In many cases using Write-Host is wrong unless you want to create a user experience.
Write-Verbose "Use this to write more information" #If you wanted to redirect the verbose (Stream 4) output to a file user: Test-Script -Verbose 4>&1 | Out-File o.txt Write-Warning "Error Messages that Stand Out" Write-Host "Use this to write in different colours" -foregroundcolor "Red"
Help Text
Whilst tedious it is important any tools you make with the intention or reusing them should have ample help text to accompany
<# .SYNOPSIS Short description .DESCRIPTION Long description .PARAMETER ComputerName Description of parameter .EXAMPLE Example of how to use this cmdlet .EXAMPLE Another example of how to use this cmdlet #> function Verb-Noun { # Some function }
Support Should Process
Below is an example of using support for ShouldProcess. The default impact level for the shell to ask the user to confirm is "High" so by setting this as the ConfirmImpact level we are telling the cmdlet to confirm each time ShouldProcess is called. You need to provide a string as an argument. This will be the description of what is about to be done. Using the -WhatIf switch on this function would trigger all ShouldProcess calls but not run them.
function Verb-Noun{ [CmdletBinding(SupportsShouldProcess=$True,ConfirmImpact="High")] Param () Write-Host "Performing some basic task" If ($PSCmdlet.ShouldProcess('About to make a system change')){ Write-Host "Performing some high impact task" } }

EDMONTON – An Edmonton woman who told the Canadian Forces her sister's fiancé was a terrorist in an attempt to end their engagement will be under house arrest for six months.
Hana Bedhiafi, 24, sobbed in court as provincial court Judge Elizabeth Johnson told her she wasn't going to jail.
"You did a stunningly stupid thing, amazingly stupid and thoughtless," Johnson said. "The kinds of consequences that could flow from this behaviour are difficult to contemplate. However, I am convinced you would never do this again."
In April 2014, Bedhiafi was "quite upset" with her older sister's marriage plans, Crown prosecutor Craig Krieger told court. While Bedhiafi and her family believed the engagement was a bad idea, the older sister was adamant about the man she wanted to marry.

I tried MPlayer and WiiMC, they play the movie fine, but doesn't show the subtitles at all, while my cheap DVD player handle it with no problem. Is there any other player I should check ?

As Downtown transforms this summer, the Town of Castle Rock is also working to ensure smooth access.
Specifically, big changes are coming to Festival Park. As the park becomes a new urban center for the Downtown core, Second Street has been closed to through traffic. As a result, the intersection of Third and Perry streets will also be transformed – into a roundabout.
See what the Town has planned for this intersection during two open houses on Monday, April 10. The first is from 9 to 10:30 a.m., and the second is from 5 to 6:30 p.m. Both will be at Fire Headquarters, 300 Perry St., and information will be the same.
Learn about the roundabout's unique design, and get a first look at proposed intersection landscaping and center artwork. Overall, the Town intends to gain parking spaces for Downtown, and every effort will be made to minimize disruption to businesses and the traveling public. To maintain safety throughout the project, some night work and lane closures may be necessary.
Construction is expected to begin by late June and wrap up in August. Get more information at CRgov.com/PerryRoundabout.

I'm going on 3 months now. 3 months and about 20 pounds down (I haven't weighed in for over a week. Because I haven't been to the gym in...over a week. Tonight I will go to Sandy's class and weigh in - hoping to cross that next Life List item off!). So yeah, feeling pretty great - people are taking notice which is as much a motivator as anything else (like sleeping better, having more energy, dropping a size, maybe more). But over the past couple weeks, I have found myself more tempted than ever - and I'm cheating (just a little bit). Skipping the daily walk/workout, indulging more on Trader Joes Dark Chocolate and Sea Salt Covered Almonds, not planning the week's meals, and even going to Dairy Queen (it was really really delicious).
All this said, I'd like to reach my ultimate goal of 30 (hmm - 40?) pounds down by the end of the year and these indiscretions, while not as bad as say, eating doughnuts for breakfast every morning, are going to make it harder to reach that goal. Just in time, Mark Sisson is launching the 30 Day Primal Challenge on September 12 which should be just the thing I need to get back in the swing of things. Looking forward to Monday!

This Cleanup "Project"
why why whyThis cleanup account was started by me, a real HorseLand player, ONLY for the purpose of CLEANING UP. If you really need to call me something (which i doubt there will ever be reason to), just make up a name. I tend to play this game more maturely than most 5 year old kiddies who run around buying useless "full bubbled mini shires" and what ever other nonsense you can think of. I am well respected, and apparently quite well known too, thus i will NOT link back to my main account or tell you who i am. I do not feel like getting flooded on my already busy inbox with messages relating to this account, if you have something to say, say it to me here. No, i will not even give you a hint, don't bother – it will only get me irritated and result in some SUPER-DUPER NICE (that's called sarcasm for all you little kiddies, who haven't learn about that yet) messages from me and you being blocked. I got tired of seeing all these useless horses all over, and decided to do something about it, since i had a little spare coins on my main.
What I've spent
what it really takes...Mostly for me, but if you wanna start a proper cleanup, look at this. THIS is what it takes.
So, just for interests' sake, i decided to track how much i spent on this project of mine. I keep track of what i transfer off my main, and thus what i spend on this account. All the coins spent either goes to: buying horses/dogs, and buying feed for them. Anything else (of which i can only think it would be a layout) will be listed seperately and have money transfered especially for that.

From: ~petrichor. (7151501) - Just wanted to let you know that I really appreciate what you do for HL. It's hard to find a REAL cleanup on this game. I 100% salute you and all of the other cleanups that help keep Horseland running smoothly. :)

Trivial No More
Reagan - Had to be intebated again today...she was having a very tough time remembering to breathe. They had increased the amount of food she was getting but now her belly is looking a little bloated and had some food leftover in her belly after mealtime was over...so they are stopping her food to see if it will resolve itself. If not, then they will investigate further.
Cameron - Turns out her pda is no longer trivial. She is very symptomatic due to her pda. She is retaining fluid, her blood pressure is way too low, and so they are putting her back on the medicine to help close the pda and increasing her amount of fluid meds and blood pressure meds. After Friday, they will do another echo this weekend and if Cameron is still as symptomatic as she is right now and her pda is even the slightest bit open - she will be having surgery to close it.
Sorry to be so short on the updates but I am hoping to return to the NICU tonight and hopefully find the girls doing some better and some of the issues they are having being handled. Today is definitely one of the tough days. Obviously, due to the stress they have already been through today there will be no kangaroo care today (and probably for the next couple of days).

I hate that it is a tough day for your girls. Keep your head up. Remember.. "Let go Let God."ReplyDelete
You are doing a great job running back and forth between the two girls and sharing your time with Aubry. I am praying for your strength along with Cameron and Reagan's.
By the way...Congrats on the Kangaroo hold!!! I am so excited for you! I had no idea you would get to do that this early!
Hey you two! I am praying for all of you right now! Good luck tonight, I'll be thinking of you and praying that everything is going better and that you have a sweet time with them tonight! Love you all!ReplyDelete
I am thankful for the time that you had with the Kangaroo hold/hug and pray that you and your girls will be experiencing those special moments again very soon. We love you and think of you often throughout our day. Every time a thought of you comes to mind, we immediately whisper a prayer for you and your precious family.ReplyDelete
I remember our days in the NICU and it always seemed like one step forward and two steps back. A roller coaster ride it was.ReplyDelete
We are keeping you guys in our prayers.

The Effect of Mass Media on Teenagers
Mass media brings out some of the positive and negative effect on teenagers:
Positive effect on teenagers:
Mass media serves as a platform on which individuals can voice their views in various issues and share information with their friends. They can through MSN/Skype/face book to talk about their point on some case to increase their communication skills; also they can through talking to know more about different types of idea in same case. So mass media have helped to create a platform for sharing their knowledge and increase their communication skill with others.
Television trains teenagers to embrace complexity, forcing them to follow many threads and ideas, also views are forces to think and engage, and this in turn to think their analytical skill because they have to acts as a constructive influence in many cases.
Another positive effects, is that mass media keeps people informed of any recent events within a short amount of time. For example, a politician is assassinated; you will hear this immediately, so that you will know what is going on. Media keeps you informed. It also helps in other things like entertainment, gaining knowledge

Alright we are on our way!! It's week 3 and I'm feeling FABULOUS for a few reasons right. Number One I'm happy to say I am down another 3lbs and I'm 5 lbs away from hitting my first goal!! So that has already BOOSTED my confidence quite a bit! Remember last week we discussed how a small win can boost your confidence and that's ONE thing that helped me this week! Another is my planner peace!!! Yes I have found Planner peace and I'm EXCITED because I have a system that works for ME... I'm a busy mom of 3 and business owner and often times I want my planner to be beautiful and give me something I WANT to look at but I also wanted to really make the MOST of the time I spend planning and allow me to get ahead of the game. What do I mean? Well.... my planner now has so many uses it also helps me map out my week for my social media and my home biz tasks and the method works so well I will also make a version for my home tasks so that I can make a cleaning schedule (maybe next week's blog will show this one) but here is what I came up with using a tip from a Planner group on Facebook about using a transparency to track repetitive tasks.
Ok so first and foremost here is my planner spread for the week (happy Planner classic) and I used some washi for the borders and mostly MAMBI stickers and social stamps I got from a kit I found at Michael's for $5 as well as a few studio l2e stamps to mark conference calls, water intake, home tasks and more... now the placing of the social media stamps is strategic because it helps me know when and where to schedule posts for the week on my FB fan page (and personal page) because sometimes I totally space out or I get caught up with the kids and miss posting something important at the right time (for instance to remind my team of a training or to make an online party)
. Using a dashboard kit I purchased from Michael's, some thin washi tape and a permanent sharpie pen (permanent so it doesn't smear but it can STILL be wiped off from this surface- this way I can chances around the tasks if I want to. For my particular way I set up my posting/sharing I like to mix in my product posts with my inspirational quotes and I also like to make sure I mix up when I work on which social media platform i.e. FB vs IG or twitter. This way I can focus my Time and not feel like I'm all over the place AND with the help of apps like buffer or hootsuite and grim.co I can set up my posts in advance and the posts will share at the perfect time for me! Each Sunday I do the first half of my week it takes me appx an hour to plan 3 posts a day (including making the photos and editing and writing captions with hashtags and scheduling etc. And then on Thursday mornings I finish out the rest of the week's posts/plans. You wouldn't believe how much time this frees up for me AND the relief I get knowing I don't have to stress about what post will go up today or tomorrow and if I miss my "peak" time window because I was busy with the kids or something else because life is CRAZY!
Overall using this method has helped me map out my work week with ease!! Social media is not intimidating because I have a perfect plan each week! Hope this helps and make sure to leave a comment with YOUR favorite productivity hacks too!! See you guys next time for more Hacks for the planning entrepreneur!
Be sure to find a scheduling app that works for you when Pre-planning your posts, I use Buffer Pro and I can posts to several social media platforms and schedule my weeks ahead of time!

... affects really scare me, especially some things I have read that have happened to young males 16 - 24 yrs old. Can anyone reassure me this is a good route to take? Have been given option of Remicade or Methatrexate. Both scare me but Remicade is supposed to start working in body immediately and MTX can take several weeks. Hope I am doing right med. Input anyone?
My son is 16 yrs old, getting ready to start Remicade to treat his CD and the some of the side?

Hi Gilland. I can only tell you that I have been on remicade for several months now and I have had no real side effects from this medication. I take it for my cd-colitis. It has helped me a lot, but I am a 66 yr. old female, and have not heard the effects on young males. I think it is worth a try, but I am not a medical expert. I hope to hear how he is doing, and if he decided to try it. Thanks, Linda
Hi Gilland!
If you still are contemplating your decision, here's some reassurance. I'm 20 and started Remicade at 9. Imagine MY parents conscience. It's a very scary decision to make, but Remicade is DEFINITELY the right answer. I had one lymphoma scare, but other than that, lymphoma with Remicade is very rare. If your son is currently on an anti-inflammatory, such as pentasa, it is perfectly okay to start him on Remicade. In my opinion, it's better than Humira (constant injections), prednisone, and even pentasa. As long as he's not on imuran (azathioprine), then he should be fine! If he is currently struggling with his illness, this decision will be life changing. I've been in remission for about 6 years now and Remicade is maintaining my symptoms. Best of luck!

Startups, universities bring drone technology to old-school industries
Even though drones fly without pilots onboard, the unmanned aircraft business could create more than 100,000 new jobs for those on the ground by 2025, according to a report from the Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International.
Many of those jobs will be generated by old-school industries including agriculture, construction, mining and utilities. Others will be created by companies, including some in the St. Louis region, that train unmanned aircraft pilots, help clients collect and analyze data harvested by drones or build the machines themselves.
In all, the global market for drone technology's commercial applications could grow from an estimate of $2 billion in 2016 to as much as $127 billion by 2020, according to a report from the consulting group PricewaterhouseCoopers.
"That boom in the industry is definitely here. It's a good problem to have. We can't pump enough students through the program to meet industry demand," said Travis Balthazor, unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) flight operations manager at Kansas State University Polytechnic.
Balthazor estimated that the university graduates 20 to 30 students from its UAS degree program each year. Kansas State also hosts outreach programs for those interested in learning more about what drones can do.
The increased interest in drones is being driven, in part, by declining prices for the aircraft themselves. Not long ago, there weren't many commercial systems available and those on the market were pricey, hovering around $100,000 per unit, Balthazor said.
"Now, just about anybody can go out there and buy a small unmanned aircraft for easily under a thousand or a couple thousand dollars and they can do a lot with it," he said.
Although unmanned aircraft systems aren't as big an investment these days, it's still important for executives to know exactly how they can apply the technology in their industries, said Carla Rose, founder and chief executive at AerialSync, a St. Louis startup.
In addition to providing consulting services, AerialSync offers 16 training courses tailored to industries including agriculture, construction and journalism, among others.
"I think there has to be education in place. If you just go out and buy a drone, even if you figure out how to fly it, it's going to sit on a shelf," she said. "You have to understand what you want the drone to do. The drone is only as smart as the operator."
Rose said the vast majority of students who complete one of AerialSync's multiday courses have gone on to obtain remote pilot airman certification, which is required by the Federal Aviation Administration. Depending on the program they choose, participants also learn industry specifics such as how to use unmanned aircraft to conduct utility inspections or survey construction sites.
"The drone pilot who graduates from our course has a very strong understanding of the industry he or she will be working in," Rose said.
AerialSync will soon be expanding its services beyond consulting and training to include infrastructure inspections thanks to a merger that's in the works. Rose declined to discuss the deal in detail, but said she thinks AerialSync will be in prime position to win contracts from large companies looking to diversify their supplier networks or from government entities required by law to purchase a minimum percentage of their supply needs from minority- or women-owned business enterprises. AerialSync is a certified Women Business Enterprise and Rose is also seeking certification as a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise.
She also hopes to soon expand AerialSync's education efforts to those who haven't yet started their careers.
"We are extending that into STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) programs we hope to bring into the high schools to prepare our young students," she said. "We are behind internationally and we can bridge that gap with after-school programs."
Aerial Insights
Aerial Insights, another St. Louis startup, has its own fleet of unmanned aerial vehicles as well as technological tools to analyze the drone-collected data. The company, headquartered in St. Louis' Center for Emerging Technologies facility in the Cortex district, currently focuses on utility inspection and surveying. And, because of the company's use of artificial intelligence technology — or machine learning — Aerial Insights' inspection and surveying system gets smarter with each flight.
"Our tools are not only the UAVs, or drones, but the integrated sensor packages, and the advanced machine learning and machine vision analysis to best utilize the customer's data to extract pertinent, actionable information and provide geospatial intelligence when and where it's needed," said Alex St. John, Aerial Insight's co-founder and chief analytics officer. "Providing the drone service is absolutely necessary for AI to gather the right data to develop machine learning and machine vision algorithms for the task at hand."
Those tasks could include inspecting existing transmission lines and substations or developing strategies to manage encroaching tree limbs that could bring down lines and spark power outages after the next big storm. Aerial Insights works to help clients cut costs, increase safety and address potential problems, St. John said.
In one example, detailed data sets geared toward vegetation management might include high-resolution digital imagery, 3-D [LiDAR] scanning and hyperspectral imagery, which collects and processes information from across the electromagnetic spectrum, to provide a much more technical picture than those snapped by traditional surveying and inspection crews in years past.
"Hyperspectral imagery and analysis produces highly specific diagnoses of, and prescriptions for, a plant's health. Coupled with LiDAR, we have a full 3-D spatial assessment, which aids in disaster reconnaissance and recovery," St. John said. "More importantly, particularly in the case of utilities and energy infrastructure, this coupling is now capable of preventing damage and disaster before it happens by assessing plant health as well as location."
Richmond Heights, Missouri-based startup AirZaar leaves the flying to its clients, who can download drone-harvested data to the company's secure, cloud-based software platform using a simple USB stick. From there, AirZaar's software can crunch the data into drawings and analytics.
The technology significantly shortens a process that might have taken survey crews equipped with bulky $40,000 laser scanners and analysts drawing up the data collected as long as 18 hours, said Ravi Sahu, AirZaar's co-founder and CEO.
"Within a few minutes, we can get them automated 2-D and 3-D models and analytics for a site," he said.
The type of drone used to collect the data doesn't matter for the most part, said Sahu. So the savings really add up when clients compare the cost of purchasing at least one laser scanner, which requires a truck and multi-person crew to transport and operate it, to buying a basic drone and paying a single pilot to fly it. He said AirZaar's drawings and analytics are also more accurate than traditional surveys, according to comparisons made by its clients.
Increased accuracy also helps save time and money, said Sahu, whose company specializes in work with mining and construction clients. AirZaar will be going through a renaming and rebranding process very soon to better reflect its target markets and mission.
Construction project managers can use AirZaar's data to get a real-time picture of progress at a site or accurately measure the excavation needed to level a piece of land and pour a foundation. At open surface mines, the company's maps and analytics can help design more efficient explosions, which are used to expose and extract the materials being mined. Better blast plans can also make mines much safer because they reduce rock projectiles, some of which travel at speeds fast enough to prove deadly to mine workers.
"Through our software, we have optimized this process of accurate blast design and really given companies reliable information about the amount of explosives required at a particular location," Sahu said.
Drone-collected data has also helped AirZaar's client companies cut the noise and vibrations that are an inevitable result of mine blasts. Eventually, the company hopes to provide even more accurate data that could help mining firms control inventory or more-efficiently process their end product by helping sort particles generated by blasts.
"Our goal is to accurately predict the size of the rock," Sahu said.
The future of unmanned flight
Balthazor, from Kansas State University, said he expects such capabilities to really take off as drones and the regulations that govern them become more advanced. Among other initiatives, researchers at Kansas State are working to improve the telemetry — or transmission technology — between unmanned aerial vehicles and their control systems. University experts are also helping government agencies adapt and revise regulations governing manned air flight to better fit the particularities of unmanned aircraft systems.
Meanwhile, many drone devotees in the industries hot to hire Balthazor's students are pushing for a revision of FAA regulations that currently require drones be operated only within the pilot's visual line of sight.
"So that's where the industry is going," Balthazor said. "How soon we get there, I'm not quite sure of, but I think it will be sooner than later."

We are super excited to present the latest novella from our young writers, Prophecy's Keys: Pieces of Souls by the Inkaholics 9 Writers Group. This group is pretty sure they are going to want to write a prequel and/or a sequel, so we have boldly added "Book 1" to the title.
All of the writers in this group were completely new to Inkaholics Groups, but I think we have them hooked because every one of them just finished being a part of Inkaholics 12. (More on that later!) Here's a little bit about this classic fantasy story from Ink 9:
The young wizardess vows to correct the situation and finds help in a clumsy apprentice blacksmith and a paranoid, recluse dragon. But a wicked creature from her past interferes with their quest at every turn, or is he drawing them right where he wants them? Has circumstance brought these three together? Or are they a part of an ancient prophecy that connects them in more ways that they could possibly imagine?

Pork Busters!
The reasons are twofold:
1)It's easy.
2)It's tasty.
Basically, you find a small pork roast (Costco around here carries these three packs of lean 2lb shoulder roasts, but I've also used a tenderloin and other roasts with success). Then you rub it liberally, crust it even, with a special little mixture. The mix consists of about 66% chili powder, 15% ground cinnamon, 6.3% cumin, 6.3% coriander and 6.4% salt and pepper. Bear in mind that none of this is ever measured, I just eyeball my ratios.
Mix all that together and then roll your dried roast in it until it's completely coated, pack it on there so you really get a nice crust.
Then throw it into a hot hot cast iron (or other oven safe) skillet with some butter melted and sear that baddy on all sides. Remove skillet to preheated 375° oven for about an hour, depending on your roast. Use a probe thermometer and remove when it reaches 150°. Remove from the cutting board to a plate, cover with foil: it will coast the last 10° goverment mandated degrees.
Slice it thin and serve with Raspberry Chipotle Sauce. Which is easy. 1 big tub of Danish Orchards Raspberry Jam (yep, the cheap stuff-I prefer seeds in), 1 can of chipotle pepper in adobo sauce. Chop the chilis (which are HOT). Remove enough Jam from the tub to accomodate chilis and sauce. Mix. You can also buy premade versions of this sauce from most grocers.
Described so far is Pork Busters 'control group.' There are variations.
-First, use different cuts, as mentioned above.
-Also, at one point we decided such a name should mean that 'something' should be busting out of the pork. I've tried different things, the best results were using more pork: we stuffed the roast with chorizo. That was pretty good, but also heart attack material.
-And today's variation: hickory smoked on the grill!
I fired up Chewie and soaked some hickory chips and chunks in water while the coals were heating. Then basically, prepare as above, but skip the sear and roast in the tightly shut grill for about an hour. Ho Ho, that's tasty.
On the side there was some grilled asparagus (we do eat a lot of that, don't we?) and some brown rice I steamed with chicken stock and dried shitakes. Pour a glass of wine -today I uncorked a bottle of Reschke 'Vitulus' Cabernet- a nicely spiced deep red that paired well I think - and Enjoy!

National Bike-to-Work Day
Today is National Bike-to-Work day. I've known about and even hung posters in my cubey campaigning for this day in years past, but this is the first year I've actually ridden my bike to work on this day. In years past there's always been something, inclement weather, inclement dentist appts, etc. Not this year, record breaking highs (for May) and a Friday attitude got me in gear and it was a beautiful ride. I even went out for a short jaunt on my lunch break.
When I got home I started preparing a gorgeous sockeye fillet Wife picked up. Just a quick rinse in cold water, a quick, light brush of olive oil, sprinkle some white pepper, salt and a little parsley on top. Then I set it on an alder plank NOTE: do not buy this in a kitchen store, and do not use cedar (kitchen store or otherwise, too pitchy). Just go to the lumber yard and buy an 8 foot length of untreated alder. Then lop off 18in lengths as you need them, you can generally get at least 3-4 fillets out of a single board. Set it aside until the coals are ready.
Which means I need to prepare the coals on Chewie, my grill. [Hold on a sec, You Named your Grill?! - - HellsyeahIdid!]. If you work with briquettes, throw away your lighter fluid. 1. That stuff is so safe now that it's actually difficult to alight in the slightest of breezes 2. Just buy a chimney, they are $8 at Lowes, you don't have to replace them and all you need is a little wad of newsprint.
While the coals are doing their thing, I open the fridge to what foliage I have to accompany the meal. Carrots. and that's it. That's all I got. Well, that won't do. I pack up Oldest Kid and we head to the grocery store around the block to pick up something suitable. Once there we pick up One Orange, Two Baby BokChoy, Three Zucchini. And a bottle of Cycles Gladiator Syrah. I'm always a sucker for wine with bicycles on the label and today's it's even thematic, so there you go. And one of the La Brea Rosemary Rounds (Wife's fave).
Getting back to the Hordestead, the coals are perfectly ready. Just lay the plank right on the grill, and close the top. We've got about 25-30 minutes until it's ready. Better get cracking.
Arranging the rest of the grill is a snap though. Slice the zuccis in half, dribble with a little olive oil and light dusting Old Bay seasoning (a tasty combo). Slice the bokchoy in half and dribble with a little soy sauce and black pepper. Slice the rosemary round into this slices and brush a little olive oil on one side. Then just fit it all on the grill. Dassit.
Heading back inside I grab those carrots. They have been in the fridge awhile, not too long, but long enough. I just run 5 of them up and down the box grater until they're shredded. Then rotate the grater 90 degrees, and zest the heck outa that brand new orange. Then juice it. Combine those three items with a some salt, pepper, a little honey. And the secret ingredient, Orange Flower Water. You can find it at a specialty grocer, or any Mediterranean grocer, I found mine at my local Chinese market, go figure. This stuff is crazy, it's intensely floral, so only use a smidge. About a half a capful will do for this salad. That's basically it, just toss this all together for a cool Cairo carrot salad. I originally pulled this recipe from a little North African cookbook I picked up for $1.99. One of my best kitchen purchases, I have made quite of few of the recipes.
Back at the grill, everything is done! Pull it off, platter it, top off the wine, snap a picture, Feast!

Mother's Day
Last week my family and I enjoyed a Southern California vacation. Unfortunately there were not many notable meals involved. We had a good time with my grandparents at brunch, and my sister's rooftop grill, but I didn't do the cooking. Apart from that we ate at Disneyland and a variety of chain restaurants. I didn't bother snapping any photos of my Tomorrow Land slice of Pizza or my Coco's soggy salad.
But the day after we arrived back in the PNW we packed up the horde and headed over to my parents for a bbq. I prepared a California Santa Maria style BBQ. A favorite of my family since growing up in San Luis Obispo. I did lift some of recipes from Steve Raichlen's BBQ USA cookbook, worth picking up if you lika da grilled food as I do. The meal hinged on a couple citrus-marinaded, then rubbed tritips. But also crucial are the pinquito beans! Only grown in Santa Maria and surrounding area, they are core to Santa Maria Style BBQ. My parents always like to tell the story of a church dinner they were involved with years ago. They borrowed two commercial stew pots and made 20 lbs of beans (20 lbs dry!). It was too much beans. I only made about 1/5c of dry beans, it was just enough.
I also threw together some salsa fresca for an hors d'oevre and as a topping for the tritips. There were some grilled asparagus (very similar to the pan seared ones in the prior post, just a different, and more delicious heat medium) and a heavily garlic buttered pugiliese loaf.
Beef Tri Tip
This is an easy cut. And delicious. But it's biggest allure is it's price point, it's also cheap. There is a lot of connective tissue here, it looks a little like a strip steak, so you just need to be sure to slice it very thin, across the grain. You'll be left with some of the most intensly flavored, and not overly tough beef steak you'll ever taste. I threw together a quick marinade of the juice of two oranges, one lime, a little soy sauce, and a few crushed cloves of garlic. I had just purchased the beef that same morning, so I didn't marinate for more than a few hours, but that's okay, I wasn't looking for an intense marinade flavor, just a little citrus hint in the background. Once we started the coals I dried the meat and gave it a good rub of salt, pepper, garlic powder and dried rosemary. Once the coals were ready it was tossed on the hot grill for around 10 minutes a side for medium doneness. As I said, be sure to slice thin across the grain and then top it with a little fresh salsa.
Salsa Fresca
Chopping. chopping. chopping. I like it. Relaxing to me.
2lbs ripe tomatoes, chopped. Cut out the stem then slice each one across the equator so you can squeeze out the seeds. Once chopped put your tomatoes in colander in the sink and lightly salt. This will allow them to shed some excess moisture so you don't wind up with salsa soup.
One small yellow onion, or half a large one, chopped. Don't add too much onion to your fresh salsa, it's too overpowering unless you cook it. but then it wouldn't be fresca, would it?
Three Anaheim chilies, chopped, one of them roasted.
Three Pasilla chilies, chopped, two of them roasted. When you are roasting your chilies just toss them right onto your hot bbq coals and turn them only once completely blackened and blistered. Once the whole thing is charry, remove from the heat and allow to cool. Then rinse the charred skin off under water. Your're left with the delicious and sweetly roasted chili flavor. I realize this isn't exactly 'fresca' but that's what sets this recipe off!
A fistful of cilantro, chopped.
Some folks in Cali will add some celery, feel free, but I think it has enough bite without it.
Toss everything together and squeeze the juice of a lime over it. Salt, pepper and you are ready to dip a chip in already.
The Beans
I follow Raichlen's recipe pretty closely here. And unless you live on the central coast you'll have to go to the interweb for the beans. Pinto beans will do though, if you must. Take 1.5 cups and make sure there's no pebbles in the mix. soak in water overnight. Drain the water and refill the pot to a level at least a few inches above the beans. You can add a little onion or a ham hock if you like. I like. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 1.5 hours. You may need to skim off a little foam after the first 20 mins or so. Drain the beans, but save a little of the beanjuice.
Meanwhile, in a little saucepan, stir together 3/4 of a can of tomoato paste (smear the remaining 1/4under your eyes as warpaint), a spoonful of brown sugar, a squirt of prepared mustard, some toasted and ground cumin, and some oregano. Oh! and you must add some chili sauce. They say that in Cali they prefer Las Palmas. Raichlen says it. The internet says it. My dad seemed to recall it a little. But I can't find Las Palmas around here. I really like PicoPica though, and you can find it anywheres. Add about two tablespoons I think. I just glub it in.
lets see, what else?
Oh, the Garlic Bread
I don't really have a recipe or anything. I bought a nice pugiliese loaf, which I really like, it's got a great crust but is really doughy and moist inside with a great mild sour flavor. I melted a stick o butter in the nuker for a few seconds-just enough to make it pliable. Then I pressed 3 or 4 cloves of garlic (you must pick up a Zyliss, accept no subs) and a few green tops of some spring onions I had in the fridge. slice your loaf in half and smear that stuff all over the place. Then grill it until it's toasted, you can do this while the beef is resting.
You'll need to pair this with a nice bottle of Central Coast, fruit-forward, Cabernet. Maybe two bottles.
Cheers to Wife, my mom, and all the mothers out there!

Salmon Candied with Ginger-Marmalade, Pan Seared Asparagus and Mushroom Quinoa
This is one of my favorite ways to prepare a fresh salmon fillet, which we do eat a fair amount of around here. This is not one of Wife's favorite ways to eat her salmon (which I don't understand at all, this is delicious), but the kids like it well enough so it's not completely vetoed from our menu.
Earlier, we picked up a beauty fillet of sockeye, though even a farmed atlantic salmon would be fine, we eat plenty of that too. Unwrapping the fish and giving it a quick cold water rinse, set it aside. Fire up the oven (on broil) and let the mercury rise. Next prepare the candy coat.
Salmon Candied with Ginger-Marmalade
One big scoop of Orange Marmalade - nothing fancy, I'm using Smuckers.
Grate some ginger - I keep mine in the freezer in a little baggie with my galangal, tumeric and any other rhizomes I might have around. It keeps forever and makes grating on the box grater or microplane a cinch. Today we'll need about a tablespoon or so. Also, about a tablespoon of brown sugar.
Combine these items in a little ramiken and heat in the microwave for, I dunno, how about 54 seconds? Just make it warm so the sugar will dissolve and the ginger flavor permeates the mixture. Put your fillet on a lightly sprayed broil pan and smear your marmalmix all over the top. ooo yeah.
Place under the broiler for about 7-10 minutes, keeping a careful eye on it. Don't blacken the top, but it should just begin to brown and carmelize. If your fillet is very fresh, as this one was, you can serve it a little rare. If you are not sure maybe you'll want to move it to a lower rake and bake it through. Garnish with a little cilantro and platter.
Let's move on to the side dishes.
Pan Seared Asparagus
This is one I cook very regularly. Wife likes it a lot and the kids tolerate it. When I met Wife years & years ago, her least favorite vegetable was asparagus. "It's a weed, it grows by on the freeway," she would say. Now she loves it and I don't think I have ever seen asparagus growing wild. Freeway or no.
1 bunch of asparagus 1 glub of olive oil
dried oregano kosher salt fresh black pepper
Pick over the asparagus and snap off the woody bottoms. Set in a flat-bottomed container and pour enough olive oil over to coat. Sprinkle the herb, salt, pepper over the spears and toss to coat evenly.
Heat a skillet up quite hot, maybe not red hot, but close. Throw the spears in and they'll sizzle and such. Once they brown on the bottom use your tongs and flip 'em on over. Same thing, once they brown on the other side they should be ready to serve. Throw them on a platter and squeeze a little lemon over the lot. You'll probably need to grab a spear and test it too...yep, that's good. This dish is fast, 10 minutes start to finish.
Mushroom and Avocado Quinoa Have you tried the Quinoa? It's awesome. A delicious grain from South America that's cooked with the germ intact so it's loaded with protein. Around here it comes in a little box that holds about three cups of uncooked grain. Make sure you say it right, lest you sound like you read about it on a blog: KEEN-Wah.
I usually cook a little over a cuppa quinoa at a time. It cooks just like rice, but faster, with a 2:1 water to grain ratio.
We're going to cook ours with dried shitakes though. So grab one big handful of dried mushrooms and remove any stems. They don't rehydrate well and will be a weird texture if you leave them in. Next break or chop the shrooms into little pieces. Rehydrated mushrooms can be a little mushy and I don't like they way they feel if the pieces are too large. But they do taste delicious. Next, heat a little more twice as much water as you have grain volume in pot. Put the shitakes in the water to rehyrate for about 10 minutes (sorry, this recipe is a little convoluted, maybe you wanted to heat the water first). Remove the mushrooms from the broth and squeeze out as much liquid as you can. Heat the broth to boiling and add the quinoa, reduce heat to low.
Follow the box's stovetop directions from here.
Chop up one large or two small avocados into little cubes. Also, chop some cilantro. Once the grains are done remove from the heat, toss in the mushrooms, avocado and cilantro. Salt & Pepper to taste. This is one is very healthy and everyone likes it fairly well.
Phad Thai
This is a somewhat old photo, but I think this is an appropriate first post. Making a good phad thai was one of the first dishes I was really proud of being able to make. When I was in college my parents started to be foodies to some extent and certainly began branching out their canon of regular American style meals. My dad bought a couple thai cookbooks, a wok, accoutrements, and became a regular at a little southeast asian market in Lynnwood (is no longer there, sad). I began requesting phad thai, tom kha kai, stir fry with crispy noodles, and all sorts of new dishes whenever I was home for visit. I loved the smell of ginger and garlic and peanut oil streaming through the house.
When I had my own foodie rebirth (?) about six years ago the phad thai recipe was one of the first I requested from my dad. I still have the scribbled notes I jotted down on a piece of lined paper, it's wadded up in my little recipe box that I honestly never open anymore. That's okay, I make this dish by feel these days.
That said, I also don't make this very often anymore. Wife still requests it but I usually suggest something else southeast asian instead. I've found myselft in a little catch-22 with this dish. My dad's original recipe makes a very saucy version of the dish, which I have grown to like. Most restaurants' recipes taste a little bland to me now. But, it's also really salty (which is why wife likes it so much). I've tried to combat the saltiness, by reducing the fish sauce a bit, and it is better now. But I've also found that the ingredients in the liquid need to be reduced in proportion, otherwise the taste gets thrown completely out of whack. Speaking of salty I like to make this with steamed broccoli tossed with a little black bean paste. I'd post the recipe for that, but there's not anything more to it than that. Steam some broccoli, then toss with some black bean paste (comes in a jar from your local asian grocer). A little bit goes a long way. But here's my phad thai recipe.
Phad Thai
3/4 lb prawns, deveined and shelled
8 oz. rice stick noodles (the 3mm ones, often labelled 'Chantaboon')
2 eggs
¼ cup rice vinegar
¼ cup fish sauce
¼ sugar
2 tbsp. ketchup
6-8 cloves garlic
1-3 serrano peppers diced
½ cup chopped peanuts
¼ cup green onions or chives
¼ cup shredded carrot
peanut oil
Remove noodles from package and soak in warm water for 12-18 minutes. Combine vinegar, fish sauce, sugar and ketchup in a small bowl, whisk until sugar is disolved, set aside.
While noodles are soaking saute shrimp, garlic and peppers in a hot wok. Once the shrimp is seared and beginning to brown remove to a separate bowl. Scramble the eggs in the wok next, chop into small pieces and mix in with the shrimp.
Add noodles to the hot wok with a little more oil if necessary. Once noodles begin to heat add the liquid mixture and stir into noodles. As the noodles begin to absord most of the liquid add the chicken and egg along with the peanuts, heat through. Add the chives and carrots and cook for one minute longer. Remove to platter and garnish with lime and cilantro.
