My Second Term Project
Added Feb 12, 2013
by nickcheung
Hanoi, Viet Nam
For the second term of my studies, i was asked to design a street wear collection and make an outfit within the that range. I took inspiration from the movie "The Bride of Frankenstein". The idea of modernizing a famous character's style really excited me! The outfit consists 3 pieces, a jersey top, leather trousers, and a studded cropped jacket. Because it's a street wear project, i wanted to play with the multifunctional idea. the top can be worn as an off-shoulder tunic by itself, or paired with the trousers, and the cropped jacket is reversible. All three pieces are lined. I hope you guys like it!
Material Notes
Jersey, faux leather, heavy weight cotton, printed light weight cotton, studding, snap buttons, metal zipper.

I just wanted to say as a prospective student going into fashion design, I find this piece really inspirational. Each piece complements the rest of the look: the subtle diagonals seams (or are they darts?) in the leather trousers with the zigzag pattern in the jersey, the asymmetrical jacket with opposing asymmetrical jersey, rhinestones with the gleam of the leather. This is an awesome design. You keep it complicated, yet simple. If you ever come into the LA area to display your outfits, I'll be there. :3

Felt Ornaments That Are (Almost Entirely) Kid-Proof
A familiar sound at Christmas time: the crunch, which is shortly followed by "Mommy...I broke something", and another ornament is lost from the Christmas tree. Hurrah for the happy trend of felt! This year, there will be no low hanging, breakable, ornamental fruit! Here is just a small taste of the many new, cute, kid-proof options available around the web.
1. West Elm Market brought out some super cute dog ornaments this year, and I can barely resist the beagle: $8.00 each.
2. Land of Nod have a great range of kid-friendly Christmas decorations this year that are also wonderfully colorful. These felt candy canes are fun: $32.00 for 8.
3. Trust Anthropologie to do unbreakable with style. These Pop Dot Monograms are inspired by the art of Gijs Frieling, and are available in A all the way to Z: $8.00 each.
4. Etsy is a treasure trove of needle-felted joys, with so, so much to choose from, but seriously, who can go past needle-felted mushrooms? $30.00 for 6 from Soft Tear.
5. For those who want something a little more fancy, Bossy Feltworks on Etsy has an amazingly intricate collection of felt creations for your tree - consider them collectables for each year. This one, a flying pig, is $30.00, complete with teensy tiny braided tail and fuzzy feet.

Anyway whoever licenses this series is bent on using the title Starblazers I hope they will just keep it to just that and not change the names of the characters and the ship. Maybe they can add a subtitle like "Voyage of the Space Battleship Yamato" or something similar.

Any kind of licensing is good news for me, since it's the only real way for me to get my family to watch shows I'm following. Though, will they keep Yamato, or go with Starblazers again? How will this work out I wonder, given the cast expansion, not to mention flipping the genders of one character!
Oh, slightly unrelated, did we ever get the name of the person Dessler is playing chess with via phone?

The high level stuff can go over the kids head, but they don't care. Stuff's blowing up. Also it is unwise to underestimate the young when it comes to these things.
They might just market it under the known US name but do almost nothing else to it. The questions will come up if they try to dub it. Will they keep the Yamato names, or go with the 1979 Star Blazers names? The new characters have no English names and of course Yamamoto was a male named Hardy in Star Blazers (though that was his last name...the comics only gave him the full name of Jefferson Davis Hardy, as he had a thick Southern accent).
As to who Dessler is playing over the phone. No. We can guess from the original who he is talking to however.

Just a gut feeling, but I think they may have chosen to keep the "Starblazers" name because they don't have much faith in--or understanding of--the knowledge of Western audiences. The producers may not think it will sell as well without the linkage. That being said, I would hope they wouldn't try to Westernize the story or the character names this time around, as fandom has demonstrated that it supports and prefers authenticity. They're not selling to a general syndicated late 70s-early 80s TV market anymore.

Simply put, the reason why they are going with the STAR BLAZERS (yes, it's two words, not one) branding, is that is the title that the show was sold as around the world — although it did pick up different names in different localizations in some territories. But, it is widely known as STAR BLAZERS — and while both titles are largely unknown to American Anime fans, this seems the way to go, using a much more known brand than SPACE BATTLESHIP YAMATO. For better or worse.

It's the simplest recipe in the entertainment business and if you're lucky you end up snatching up another generation of fans to do it all over again 20/30 years down the line.

Bumbaker, STAR BLAZERS wasn't "heavily edited" for the "kids in the 80s"; in fact, it was the least edited or altered Japanese import of the time (which was the late '70s), in comparison to other series including BATTLE OF THE PLANETS, CAPTAIN HARLOCK (both the Ziv and Harmony Gold versions), ROBOTECH, TRANZOR Z, et. al. — and it was that faithfulness to the original, which garnered so much attention and helped to launch the first wave of organized Anime Fandom in the US, which the others (sans ROBOTECH) never did — with most fading into obscurity.
With that being said, 34 years later, I don't see anyone wanting to modify the series beyond the title — there's too much English text in YAMATO: 2199 for anyone to start calling the ship, Argo, or anything like that. In fact, I would assume that the only change would be the title, and perhaps the main characters, using their SB equivalents (although we're way past being able to use names like "Derek Wildstar"). At the same time, I don't think that they'll start editing out violence or death, or using "Robot Tanks," because the market they will be aiming for by using the SB brand, would be the 30-50 nostalgia demographic.

Something I always wondered about Robotech. How many people were into the later arcs or were they all sold on the just first (Macross) arc? I've seen that arc and remember only the first few episodes of the second arc. I know I saw some of the others, but can't remember any of it (I know I did because I found an old VHS tape with one episode of the second arc and part of an episode of Battle of the Planets.)

After weeks without significant updates, yamato2199.net gives us some amazing stuff. First, the story page was updated with the 4 episodes from Chapter V with some new images (i dare you not to laugh at the picture of Dr. Sado in episode 16 XD). Then, the surprises start as, along with those, they've posted the episodes for Chapter VI. No images yet but we get brief synopsis of that batch of episodes.
Then, the most un-updated section on the site, the Gallery, finally gets... well, an update... and it's a big one. Images of the sets used in episodes 1 to 6. Not screen captures but the actual set illustrations, from the bridges of the Yukikaze and Kirishima, to the resuply base on Jupiter, from the mines at Enceladus to the "fist of power" on Baleras. Beautiful stuff. GO SEE IT NOW!!!

Nice additions. Though what I've waiting for is a mecha update. The carriers have no stats and the new battleship and torpedo boats have no pages.
Plus the battlecarrier for Chapter 6 needs a preview page like the other three carriers.

I am not that concerned about any localisation as I prefeer subtitles to dubs anyway, so wont get an english version, unless it have dubs and original audio as well. The only good part is that English dvds tend to be a lot cheaper then Japanese ones.

Robotech wasn't even that heavily edited and character deaths were never covered up. Except for some of the more violent scenes most of the show was relatively intact.
The heaviest edits were to the second arc. Since Robotech was supposed to take place entirely on Earth or near it, Southern Cross had to be changed since, in the original Japanese version, the show took place on a totally different planet, several light-years away.

Mortar Board Success Built on USD's Emphasis on Service
Chapter President Hannah Levorsen double majors in history and biology, while leading Mortar Board at USD
Thursday, September 23, 2010
The University of San Diego's Mortar Board chapter was honored for its excellence at the national organization's convention this summer. Chapter President Hannah Levorsen and advisor Judith Lewis Logue were present to accept the chapter's awards.
The group was just one of 22 chapters to take home the Golden Torch Award, presented to outstanding chapters that are superb, well-run and exceed the minimum standards, accomplishing significant achievements in chapter management and contributing meaningful service to their institutions.
Levorsen attributes the chapter's success to the university's personalized education and emphasis on service.
"We choose members that exemplify service, scholarship, and leadership, and at USD there are a lot of students that meet those qualifications," Levorsen said. "That means when we are going over applications for Mortar Board, we choose the best and end up with a group that has more experience helping and leading others than most universities."

Sure, you should keep your weight, cholesterol and blood pressure in check. But getting there — and staying there — includes a multitude of physical, nutritional and emotional components. Here are cardiologists' top 10 secrets for getting heart healthy in a hurry.
10. Everyone should have a support team: Without a support system, it's nearly impossible to get and to stay healthy. The people you interact with determine what you do. Engage with your significant other, children, co-workers and friends to make healthy choices, and they will support you. A workout buddy will make you accountable; a colleague at work who wants to walk at lunch with you or track your progress together can make all the difference. — Dr. Malissa Wood, author of "Smart at Heart"
9. Healthy bones = a healthy heart. If you have any heart disease, you need to get screened for osteoporosis. Recent studies have shown that Americans are having fewer heart problems over time, and even those who have heart attacks are living longer without long-term heart problems. However, new epidemiological studies have also shown a significant increase in major fractures in patients with prior heart attacks. What it means is that while patients with heart disease have benefited from tremendous improvements in cardiovascular treatment, they're suffering a counterbalancing increase in noncardiac diseases such as osteoporotic bone fractures. — Dr. Robert Yeh, interventional cardiologist with Massachusetts General Hospital
8. Avoid canned soups. Most canned soups — in fact, most canned and packaged products — are high in sodium to preserve them. High-sodium diets increase your risk of high blood pressure and congestive heart failure. — Dr. Doreen DeFaria Yeh, cardiologist with Massachusetts General Hospital
7. Get a flu shot. It does much more than prevent that annoying winter sickness. Preventing respiratory illnesses, such as the flu, also helps prevent heart problems. — Dr. Doreen DeFaria Yeh
6. Know your numbers. Your optimal blood pressure is less than 120/80 mmHG. Fasting blood glucose should be less than 100 mg/dl. Total cholesterol should be less than 200 mg/dl. — Dr. Stephanie Moore, professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School
5. Relax. Often, those at risk for heart disease lead very stressful lives. Mind-body therapies, such as yoga or tai chi, can help an at-risk person unwind and decrease their negative emotional stress. This will lead to decreased blood pressure. High blood pressure is the No. 1 risk factor for strokes. — Moore
4. Get a pet. Recent studies have shown the therapeutic effects of pets on heart health. After a pet visit, a decline in heart rates and blood pressure has been seen. If you don't want a pet full time, volunteer at a local animal shelter. — Moore
3. Choose the right type of exercise. Ask your doctor about the type of exercise you should be doing. Aerobic exercise is heart healthy. And while weight lifting and strength training are also great workouts, they can increase your blood pressure, and may be advised against if you have known coronary artery disease, heart muscle damage or dilation of your aorta. Exercise is necessary — just do the right type for you. — Moore
2. Work out in the morning. Those who exercise most successfully and most consistently do it in the morning before other things in life interfere. Even taking a full 30 minutes to walk the dog counts. — Dr. Mary Walsh, medical director of heart failure, cardiac transplantation and nuclear cardiology at St. Vincent Heart Center of Indiana in Indianapolis
1. Own it. Most people only visit their doctor annually — so it's important to keep track of your health at home and share your results with your doctor. Owning a blood pressure cuff (Panasonic EW3109W Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor, $38 at amazon.com) can literally save your life. Having high blood pressure but not controlling it results in a greater risk of heart attack, heart failure, stroke and kidney failure. — Walsh
These tests can help save your heart
Ask your doctor to give you these tests so you know your heart disease risk, says Dr. Nakela Cook, medical officer at the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute.
Lipoprotein profile: A blood test that measures total cholesterol, HDL or "good" cholesterol, LDL or "bad" cholesterol, and triglycerides, another form of fat in the blood. The test is given after a 9- to 12-hour fast.
Fasting plasma glucose: The preferred test for diagnosing diabetes. After you have fasted overnight, you will get a blood test the next morning to find out if you have diabetes or are likely to develop the disease.
Body mass index and waist circumference: To find out whether your body type raises your risk of heart disease. A BMI of 25 or higher means you are overweight. A BMI of 30 or higher means you are obese. Both overweight and obesity are risk factors for heart disease. For women, a waist measurement of more than 35 inches increases the risk of heart disease and other serious health conditions. It's 40 inches for men.

So, this is what we know about the Eagles offensive line for the coming 2009 season: Every available member of the Andrews family has been signed and very few incumbent tackles are on board.
The Eagles are in a position to wait and see about right tackle John Runyan, a free agent recovering from knee surgery, but they lost the services of left tackle Tra Thomas, who signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
What does it mean? Well, if Stacy Andrews is indeed going to be the right tackle, it means that either Shawn Andrews will be shifted to left tackle from right guard (unlikely), or that Todd Herremans will move from left guard to left tackle (not quite as unlikely, but not that great), Winston Justice will make a huge leap in ability (yeah, I've got a picture of that happening), or the Eagles will have to find a new left tackle.
I think moving Shawn Andrews to left tackle is unlikely because he is coming off a serious injury and because his mental attitude is unknown. Just getting him back as a serviceable guard would be a positive for the Eagles. Expecting him to come back and change positions seems like more than they would ask.
There are a limited number of excellent offensive tackles available in the draft, but the Eagles, who hold the 21st and 28th picks would have to move into the top 10 to be assured of getting one of them.
That has to be what is going on here. If that isn't their plan, then letting Thomas go makes no sense. Allowing Brian Dawkins to walk away is meaningless compared to the tightrope they are walking with their offensive line right now.

Department of Radiologic Sciences
"The Department of Radiologic Sciences was established in June, 1976 ostensibly to prepare students to become competent radiographers and to fulfill the health-care needs of the region served by the University."
Attention: Community College Radiography Transferees
In order to simplify the transfer credit process from Community College Radiography
programs to the department's Bachelors of Science Degree in Radiologic Sciences, the
department has adopted the following provision in its admission process:
In addition to meeting all other admissions requirements, associate degree transfer radiography students are required to take a 6 hour bridge course (Rad 491-Concepts of Professional Radiologic Practice). Upon completion of the bridge course, 41 semester hours of upper level credit will be awarded for the student's previous radiography training during the final semester before graduation. This course is offered once each year during the summer semester.
Students planning to enter the fall semester 2017 are encouraged to register for RAD 491 during the summer semester, 2017. This recommendation is offered in an attempt to avoid delays in fulfilling the graduation requirements within three semesters of one's initial enrollment date.

EAU CLAIRE, Wis. (Blugolds.com) — The UW-Eau Claire women's soccer team faced its toughest challenge of the season Wednesday night as they welcomed the top-ranked Wheaton College (Ill.) to Bollinger Field.
The Thunder came into the game undefeated with a 6-0-0 mark and ranked No. 1 in the nation according to the National Soccer Coaches Association of America Division III poll.
Gina Williams (Sr.-Madison, Wis./Verona Area) and the rest of the Blugolds answered the challenge though with a 2-1 upset-win in double overtime, to hand Wheaton College its first loss of the season.
The Blugolds came out strong early on and battled, showing no signs of intimidation. But just 8:48 into the game, the Thunder struck with a goal off a corner kick to take the early 1-0 lead. But the Blugolds kept their composure and played a scoreless half the rest of the way.
Nina Behrenbrinker (Jr.-St. Paul, Minn.-Cretin/Derham Hall) made two saves in the first half while the Blugolds got one shot on goal.
UW-Eau Claire came out strong in the second half and had several good scoring chances, but they were not able to solve the tough Wheaton College defense. It looked like the Thunder would hold on for the 1-0 victory, but Williams had other ideas.
In the 87th minute, Williams put one past the Wheaton College goalkeeper to even things up. Megan Hanson (Fr.-Verona, Wis./Verona Area) and Allie Stone (Jr.-Madison, Wis./Verona Area) picked up assists on the goal.
The two teams headed to overtime and it was the Blugolds who had the better opportunities in the first 10-minute frame. But neither team was able to score, so they headed to the second, and final overtime.
It was Williams again, who scored just 2:33 into the second overtime period to pick up her second goal of the game, and more importantly, the game-winner. Abby Beinlich (Jr.-Madison, Wis./Madison Memorial) picked up the assist as the Blugolds swarmed the field to celebrate the upset victory.
The Blugolds will have a little time to enjoy the victory, but they will have to get ready for Saturday when they welcome UW-Stevens Point, whch is 5-1 this season as they get back to conference action. The game is schedule for 2 p.m. at Bollinger Field on Saturday.

You can tell Samuel is a shill for the pokersites. I MEAN LOOK AT HIM...all he does is sit in front of a computer all day..... can't even put clothes on..probably wears a diaper cuz he is soo glued to his poker screens and doesnt even know what day it is when his parents call him downstairs for dinner
Let me help clue you in about the poker room at 5 Dimes.
First off it's not operated by them. It is operated by True Poker.
Customer support is of no value to you if you have problems as they will tell you the room is operated by their provider.
In return for this arrangement, True Poker gets to have a sportsbook.
This whole network Yatahay is very small and the only rooms are those that do their own cashier as the network doesn't do any of it.
You can't get any of the network perks if that's what you want to call them from 5 Dimes. Just a small example is the first deposit freerolls.
I wouldn't recommend playing any poker on 5 Dimes or Yatahay at all. It's a waste of your time and as the OP you won't be happy.
Stay far far away.

June 26, 2012by Carolyn SzczepanskiWe're all waiting with bated breath as the members of a Congressional conference committee race to beat the clock on the June 30th expiration of the current extension of the federal transportation bill. Unfortunately, the fate of critical funding for bicycle and pedestrian programs hangs in the balance — despite an overwhelming show of support over the past several months.
June 25, 2012by Andy ClarkeCalifornia Senator Barbara Boxer has been in the spotlight to save funding for bicycling and walking in the next transportation bill – but not because she ever wanted it to go away.
June 25, 2012by Carolyn SzczepanskiBy Lindsay Plante, BFA Communications Intern
June 22, 2012by Darren FluscheAs the transportation conference committee in Congress is debating the future of funding for bicycling and walking projects, the Federal Highway Administration is busy funding the country's best and most innovation multi-modal transportation projects. Not surprisingly, many of those projects either focus on or include bicycling and walking infrastructure.
June 22, 2012by Andy ClarkeFor the past 20 years, local elected officials have been given rare access to state transportation funds through a handful of programs administered by state Departments of Transportation as grant programs. These also happen to be the primary sources of funding for bicycling and walking initiatives: Safe Routes to School, Transportation Enhancements and Recreational Trails.
June 22, 2012by Carolyn SzczepanskiKansas may conjure images of the yellow-brick road, but if you're a bicyclist, the Prairie State doesn't exactly spring to mind as a prime cycling destination. Well, think again. The top team in the National Bike Challenge for the month of June hails from Topeka, Kansas — and they're proving they're no fly-over state when it comes to bicycling. If you're wondering about that acronym at the top of...
June 22, 2012by Carolyn SzczepanskiNews out of the conference committee working on the federal transportation bill isn't good. While Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA) and Rep. John Mica (R-FL) yesterday announced that "the conferees have moved forward toward a bipartisan, bicameral agreement on a highway reauthorization bill," we're hearing that important programs that fund biking and walking are in urgent peril.
June 21, 2012by supportDespite all the tumult with the federal transportation bill, one modest source of safety funding is likely to continue: the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP).
June 20, 2012by Darren FluscheDepending on who you listen to the effort to get a new long term transportation bill is either stalling out or discussions are on-going and deals are being made on some issues -- including local control over bicycle and pedestrian spending.
June 20, 2012by Carolyn SzczepanskiWith $25,000 in grants, Advocacy Advance will boost the growth of young advocacy organizations and dramatically increase biking and walking in Mississippi and Tucson, Arizona.

An 87-year-old Connecticut man drove the wrong way on the Massachusetts Turnpike for about 11 miles late last night before Trooper Darren Specht was able to stop him.
"Trooper Specht did a fantastic job pulling him over," said Sgt. Mark Courtois of the Charlton barracks.
State police had received several calls reporting the wrong-way driver.
Thaddeus Satkowski, 87, of Staffordville, Conn., got on Exit 10 of the westbound Mass. Pike in Auburn around 11:30 last night and drove east in the breakdown lane of the high-speed lane for about 11 miles, police said. He made it to Grafton before he heeded Trooper Specht's signals to pull over.
Trooper Specht drove parallel to the wrong-way driver on the correct side of the highway until he was able to get his attention.
"We moved to have his license revoked immediately," said Trooper Richard Mahoney of the Weston barracks. He said state police contacted the Connecticut Department of Motor Vehicles.

Ringo Starr paused.
The legendary drummer for The Beatles had just been asked what was the best compliment he had ever received.
"Thanks for being useful," he eventually said.
Starr who turns 72 on Saturday, July 7 has been far more than useful during his career, which began in 1957 when he and friend Eddie Miles formed the Eddie Clayton Skiffle Group.
That band eventually became known as Rory Storm and the Hurricanes. While the band was in Hamburg, Germany, Starr met John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and the rest of The Beatles. He replaced Pete Best as the band's drummer in August 1962, and during the next eight years he was an integral part of the foursome that changed the course of music history.
In a recent telephone interview, Starr admitted that like the rest of the world he finds himself listening to The Beatles from time to time.
"I was listening to the guys," he said, "and they sound like young boys."
Starr, whose unique baritone has gotten even deeper over the years, will perform at the Usana Amphitheatre on Wednesday, July 11, with the latest incarnation of his All Starr Band.
There will be selections from his time in The Beatles, which could include "Boys," "I Wanna Be Your Man," "Yellow Submarine," "With a Little Help From My Friends," "Don't Pass Me By" and "Good Night."
He will also take a turn on the drums with his perfect, yet often-unacknowledged, sense of tempo and feel. A kind of sixth sense allowed him to keep time with his innovative matched-grip style whether drumming to "All You Need Is Love" in 7/4 time, or "Here Comes the Sun" with repeating 11/8, 4/4 and 7/8 passages.
Before Starr, drummers were an afterthought. Starr elevated their status, figuratively and literally he was among the first to use drum risers.
Because of his willingness to share the spotlight, he is able to recruit the best sidemen in the business. Alumni of his All Starr Band include Nils Lofgren, Joe Walsh, Dr. John, Billy Preston, Levon Helm, Timothy B. Schmit, John Entwistle, Randy Bachman, Peter Frampton, Jack Bruce, Roger Hodgson, Howard Jones, Sheila E. and Edgar Winter.
"Usually," he said, "artists get in touch" about being in his band.
This year, newcomers include Steve Lukather (Toto) and Gregg Rolie (Santana and Journey). They join Richard Page, Todd Rundgren, Mark Rivera and Gregg Bissonette. With that lineup, fans at the Usana concert might hear Santana's "Black Magic Woman," Rundgren's "Bang the Drum All Day," Toto's "Africa" and Mr. Mister's "Broken Wings."
"I don't want to stand there and be the front guy [all the time]," Starr said.
With that kind of talent and persona, Utahns likely will forgive Starr for his choice of skiing destinations. He has owned a house in Colorado and skied there for 20 years, forsaking Utah's "greatest snow on Earth."
Well, no one's perfect. Not even a Beatle.
But useful? Yes, Starr is always that.

When • Wednesday, July 11, at 8 p.m.
Where • Usana Amphitheatre, 5150 S. 6055 West, West Valley City

Ibanez rallies Yankees to win, New York holds lead
Yankees 4, Red Sox 3
Raul Ibanez tied it with a pinch-hit homer in the ninth inning then had an RBI single in the 12th, helping the Yankees remain a game up on Baltimore in the AL East with one game to go by beating the Boston Red Sox 4-3 on Tuesday night.
With a second comeback spurred by Ibanez in the last 10 days, the Yankees need a win or Orioles loss on the final day of the season to secure their 13th division title since 1996. The Orioles beat Tampa Bay 1-0 earlier.
If the teams end up even after Wednesday's games, they'll play a tiebreaker Thursday in Baltimore.
The Yankees kept missing chances on a misty night. They were 0-58 when trailing after eight innings this season, then rallied in the ninth.

Bravado Response:
You should always measure based on your current size. Depending on what stage you are in your pregnancy may reveal a larger band width to help accommodate a larger cup. In this case if you ended up measuring a 34 you would still fall into the same size (medium). If you still feel this is too small in the cup I suggest trying our Bliss style bra 125
as it offers a more structured cup and also has a flexible support channel that mimics an underwire.

Cubans live 2 months longer than Americans. Or, if you want to be picky, it's a wash, and Cubans and Americans live about as long as each other.
Cuba's rates of maternal mortality (a very important figure), infant mortality and child mortality rates are above that of the 3rd World and are at about the level of the 1st World. In that sense, Cuba is a 1st world country.
What is incredible is this:
Cuba spends 4 cents on health care to every one of our dollars. Yes, Cuba gets better outcomes for 96% less cost. Does that make any sense at all?
However, bringing this back OT - it is in the US where there is greater use of, and in some states, levels of mandatory requirements for cyclists using helmets. Meantime in Cuba no-one much wears helmets, the use of bicycles would be of value in their strategy of preventative medicine.

IBM Network Management
From DocWiki
IBM network management refers to any architecture used to manage IBM Systems Network Architecture (SNA) networks or Advanced Peer-to-Peer Networking (APPN) networks. IBM network management is part of the IBM Open-Network Architecture (ONA) and is performed centrally by using management platforms such as NetView and others. It is divided into five functions that are similar to the network management functions specified under the Open System Interconnection (OSI) model. This article summarizes the IBM network management functional areas, ONA network management architecture, and management platforms.
Figure: IBM Network Management Handles SNA or APPN Networks illustrates a basic managed IBM network.
Figure: IBM Network Management Handles SNA or APPN Networks
IBM Network-Management Functional Areas
IBM divides network management into the following five user-based functions: configuration management, performance and accountant management, problem management, operations management, and change management.
IBM Configuration Management
IBM configuration management controls information describing the physical and logical characteristics of network resources, as well as the relationships between those resources. A central management system stores data in configuration management databases and might include information such as system software or microcode version numbers; serial numbers of hardware or software; physical locations of network devices; and names, addresses, and telephone numbers of contacts. As might be expected, IBM configuration management corresponds closely to OSI configuration management.
Configuration-management facilities aid in maintaining an inventory of network resources and in ensuring that network configuration changes are reflected in the configuration-management database. Configuration management also provides information that is used by problem-management and change-management systems. Problem-management systems use this information to compare version differences and to locate, identify, and check the characteristics of network resources. Change-management systems use the information to analyze the effect of changes and to schedule changes at times of minimal network impact.
IBM Performance and Accounting Management
IBM performance and accounting management provides information about the performance of network resources. The functions of the performance- and accounting-management facilities include monitoring response times of systems; measuring availability of resources; measuring the use of resources; and tuning, tracking, and controlling network performance. The information gathered by the performance- and accounting-management functions is useful for determining whether network performance goals are being met and whether problem-determination procedures should be initiated based on performance. IBM performance and accounting management performs functions similar to those handled by OSI performance management and OSI accounting management.
IBM Problem Management
IBM problem management is similar to OSI fault management in that it handles error conditions that cause users to lose the full functionality of a network resource. Problem management is performed in five steps: problem determination, problem diagnosis, problem bypass and recovery, problem resolution, and problem tracking and control.
Problem determination consists of detecting a problem and completing the steps necessary for beginning problem diagnosis, such as isolating the problem to a particular subsystem. Problem diagnosis consists of determining the precise cause of the problem and the action required to solve it. Problem bypass and recovery consists of attempts to bypass the problem, either partially or completely. It provides only a temporary solution and relies on problem resolution to solve the problem permanently. Problem resolution consists of efforts to eliminate the problem. It usually begins after problem diagnosis is complete and often involves corrective action, such as the replacement of failed hardware or software. Problem tracking and control consists of tracking each problem until final resolution is reached. Vital information describing the problem is recorded in a problem database.
IBM Operations Management
IBM operations management consists of managing distributed network resources from a central site, using two sets of functions: operations-management services and common-operations services. Operations-management services provide the capability to control remote resources centrally using the following functions: resource activation and deactivation, command cancellation, and clock setting. Operations-management services can be initiated automatically in response to certain system problem notifications.
Common-operations services allow for the management of resources not explicitly addressed by other management areas, using specialized communication through new, more capable applications. Common-operations services offer two important services, the execute command and the resource-management service. The execute command provides a standardized means of executing remote commands. The resource-management service provides a way to transport information in a context-independent manner.
IBM Change Management
IBM change management tracks network changes and maintains change files at remote nodes. Network changes occur primarily for two reasons: changing user requirements and problem circumvention. Changing user requirements include hardware and software upgrades, new applications and services, and other factors that constantly change the needs of network users. Problem circumvention is needed to deal with unexpected changes resulting from the failure of hardware, software, or other network components. Change management attempts to minimize problems by promoting orderly network changes and managing change files, which log network changes. IBM change management is similar in some respects to OSI accounting management.
IBM Network-Management Architectures
Two of the most well-known IBM network-management architectures are the Open-Network Architecture (ONA) and SystemView.
Open-Network Architecture
The Open-Network Architecture (ONA) is a generalized network-management architecture that defines four key management entities: the focal point, collection point, entry point, and service point.
The focal point is a management entity that provides support for centralized network-management operations. It responds to end-station alerts, maintains management databases, and provides a user interface for the network-management operator. Three kinds of focal points exist: primary, secondary, and nested. The primary focal points performs all focal point functions. The secondary focal point acts as a backup for primary focal points and is used when primary focal points fail. The nested focal point provides distributed management support in large networks. Nested focal points are responsible for forwarding critical information to more global focal points.
Collection points relay information from self-contained SNA subnetworks to focal points. They are commonly used to forward data from IBM peer-to-peer networks into the ONA hierarchy.
An entry point is an SNA device that can implement ONA for itself and other devices. Most standard SNA devices are capable of being entry points.
A service point is a system that provides access into ONA for non-SNA devices and is essentially a gateway into ONA. Service points are capable of sending management information about non-SNA systems to focal points, receiving commands from focal points, translating commands into a format acceptable to non-SNA devices, and forwarding commands to non-SNA devices for execution.
SystemView is a blueprint for creating management applications that are capable of managing multivendor information systems. SystemView describes how applications that manage heterogeneous networks operate with other management systems. It is the official systems management strategy of the IBM Systems Application Architecture.
Figure: The Four Types of Focal Points Link to One Another Within the ONA Environment illustrates the relationships between the different ONA management entities.
Figure: The Four Types of Focal Points Link to One Another Within the ONA Environment
IBM Network-Management Platforms
IBM network management is implemented on several platforms, including NetView, LAN Network Manager (LNM), and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
NetView is a comprehensive IBM enterprise network-management platform that provides centralized SNA network-management services. It is used on IBM mainframes and is part of the ONA. NetView consists of the command-control facility, hardware monitor, session monitor, help function, status monitor, performance monitor, and distribution monitor.
The command-control facility provides network control by issuing basic operator and file-access commands to Virtual Telecommunications Access Method (VTAM) applications, controllers, operating systems, and NetView/PC (an interface between NetView and non-SNA devices). The hardware monitor function monitors the network and automatically alerts the network operator when hardware errors occur. The session monitor acts as a VTAM performance monitor and provides software-problem determination and configuration management. The help function provides help for NetView users and includes a browse facility, a help desk facility, and a library of commonly encountered network operation situations. The status monitor summarizes and presents network status information. The performance monitor function monitors the performance of front-end processors (FEPs), the Network Control Program (NCP), and other attached resources. The distribution manager plans, schedules, and tracks the distribution of data, software, and microcode in SNA environments.
LAN Network Manager
The LAN Network Manager (LNM) is an IBM network-management application that controls Token Ring LANs from a central support site. LNM is an OS/2 Extended Edition-based product that interoperates with IBM NetView (which is aware of such LNM activities as alarms) and other IBM management software.
Simple Network Management Protocol
IBM network management can be implemented by using SNMP. Refer to Simple Network Management Protocol, for details about SNMP implementation.
Review Questions
Q - What are the five steps of problem management?
A - Problem management is performed in five steps: problem determination, problem diagnosis, problem bypass and recovery, problem resolution, and problem tracking and control.
Q - How does the command-control facility of the NetView program operate?
A - The command-control facility provides network control by issuing basic operator and file-access commands to Virtual Telecommunications Access Method (VTAM) applications, controllers, operating systems, and NetView/PC (an interface between NetView and non-SNA devices).
Q - To perform resource activation and deactivation, command cancellation, and clock setting on a remote system, you would need to use what?
A - IBM operations management consists of managing distributed network resources from a central site, using two sets of functions: operations-management services and common-operations services. Operations-management services provide the capability to control remote resources centrally using the following functions: resource activation and deactivation, command cancellation, and clock setting.

PSLS' Morning Wood Ep. 054: Moving Day!
Welcome to a boxed up episode of Morning Wood. This week I am sad to see my PlayStation 3 and 4 (and everything else I own) get boxed up to head to the new house, but I foresee a very quick unboxing as I have reviews to do and game releases don't stop, even for the sake of your Morning Wood hosts (I know, I'm working on it). Enjoy the brief episode and know that while you are kicking back with your favorite morning beverage of choice, I am more than likely hauling boxes, while under the influence of a morning beverage of my own.
Stuff we talked about:
- Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD PS3 review incoming. Meanwhile check out Heath's Vita review here.
- inFamous: Second Son will be arriving for review this weekend.
Have any grand suggestions for next week's episode? Hit me up on Twitter @FinchStrife or via email at [email protected]. D'yani and I will be back from our new location next week, but if you check out PSLS Live on Thursday night, you might find us there even sooner, so we'll see you all sometime next week. Thanks for watching!

[Page 257]
The shooting continued without interruption. I ran out from the barn and climbed through a window in the recently built barracks. I hid there until it got dark.I heard the constant shooting, as if the guns were just behind me. The vicious Germans were chasing the Jews, like wild dogs. I went out of the barracks to my Christian friend Polova. She told me the murderous Germans went from house tohouse killing Jewish people.
The Germans dragged and pushed the Jews all over town while continuing to shoot them. The whole town was covered with corpses and the blood ran as in a slaughter-house.
Since I had not said farewell to my parents I decided to return home and throw in my lot with them; whatever will happen to them will happen to me also.
[Page 258]
I entered the barracks and among others I found my mother and my sister. The others there were our neighbors: Many Jews died while running away. My mother told me that my father was shot dead. She said a prayer for me and said she was thankful that I did not desert her. I gained strength and courage from her words and decided that at the first opportunity I would escape from the German paws.
In the meantime I was suffering from hunger and thirst.
The next day, November 3rd, in the afternoon, the barracks were guarded by Lithuanians in black uniforms with a German insignia. The Lithuanians helped the Germans annihilate the Jews.
All the Jews were chased out of the barracks. We were lined up in rows and here the tragic death-march of the Bilgoraj Jews began. The Jews had to drag themselves by foot to the train bound for Zsherzshiniets. As the Jews were forced to march, the Lithuanians continued to shoot. The Jews continued to die as they were shot and murdered. Among them my mother, blessed be her memory, fell and died on the Tarnograder street.
The Jews became very thirsty. They gave their last funds to the Lithuanian guards to bring water. The Lithuanians took their money and continued to shoot the Jews saying: You will all be shot; too bad about the water.
I held myself together with help from my friends Wolf Bendler and Ayzik Shper. Together we decided to run away, but we saw that running away was impossible.
[Page 259]
First, the way was far from the woods where one might hide and second, anyone who got out of the line of march and tried to run away, was immediately shot by the Lithuanians.
While on the forced march, Jews were constantly falling from lack of strength.
Among them my friends, Sholem Rofer and Yusef Moynes. They were unable to
survive the death-march. I picked them up and carried them on my shoulders for
as long as I had strength.
As we neared Zverzshiniets it was already dark. I casually moved away from the others and took the road going left. After I went about 100 meters, I sensed in the dark that walking along side was a women and her child. I wanted to move past them, but I noticed that the woman was my cousin Gitel Goldberg, with her little brother. She had been injured.
Walking without direction, hungry and freezing, we came upon a field and in the middle was a peasants grain-barn. We went inside and lay down on the grain and fell into a deep sleep. When we woke up it was already daylight. We saw we were in a village. We took a few steps and two peasants caught us. They stole our last coins and bound us together with rope. We wept and begged them for mercy to spare our lives. They laughed at us and dragged us off to jail.
[Page 261]
The peasants brought us to the railroad and turned us over to the German watch. They opened the tower and with hard punches threw us into the crowd of prisoners.
At the gathering point, I found my younger sister Gitel with my youngest
brother and my cousin. She told me, that they also ran away last night They
stumbled around all night in the forest. Peasants caught them and brought
them to the gathering point. The peasants caught a young Jewish girl and brought her to the gathering point and the Germans shot her.
At the gathering point near the railroad, there were several thousand people gathered from: Bilgoraj, Tarnograd, Frampol. Gorey, Kreshev. etc. Wounded people were lying in the sand and dirt suffering in pain, freezing and hungry.
Wednesday, November 4, 1942, in the afternoon, they brought the empty railroad freight cars and started loading the people into them. Stationed all along the freight cars were the German murderers with clubs in their hands and as each person was chased into the freight cars, he was beaten with the club until he bled.
When the first freight car was full it was sealed shut and the second car was loaded up.
I was pushed into a freight car full of bedraggled, homeless, little children. Some were dead and others were half-dead. The German murderers, packed in so many people in one freight car that they were standing on top of the little children.
[Page 262]
We had to stand in the very crowded freight cars. It was hard to breathe because there was no air, and we were extremely thirsty. The Lithuanian Nazi henchmen asked for money and said they would bring water. People turned over to them all they had just to get a little water. At first they did bring some water. Later they said: Youll get water in Belzshets? and did not bring any water to us.
In the freight car I found Bilgoraj Jews. We decided that we would jump from the freight train. As soon as the train began to move, Yusef Shmirer started to pray.
He said that there were people who wanted to jump from the moving train, and that we should pray for them. After we said the prayers we discussed who would jump first. We had broken out the little window through which one person could squeeze through. It appeared that Bendler and Shper were reluctant to be the first to jump. Without thinking much about it, I started to climb through the little window, and with the others lifting me, I pushed through with my feet first and then my torso.
Hanging on by my hands as the train rolled on, I saw the guards on the roof of the train, firing their guns. There was no way for me to get back into the train. I thought it was better to lose my grip and fall under the train wheels, than be burned up in the gas chambers in Belzshets. I was clinging to the wall of the train car and I jumped down. I heard the guards shooting at me, but they missed.
When the train roared past me, I got up and ran into the nearby forest. Soon I was sorry that I had jumped from the train. I saw that I was alone [Shper and Bendler did not jump with me]. I thought about those dearest to me who would perish.
Being alone and not knowing this forest, I trembled with fear at my own shadow.

Walsall skipper and player of the season Andy Butler has penned a new two-year deal at the Banks's Stadium.
The centre-back, 27, was instrumental in the Saddlers' successful battle against relegation having only joined as a free agent in November, penning a deal until the end of the season following his summer release from Huddersfield.
Butler, who made 32 appearances, said: "It's great to have my future sorted out. I've loved every minute of my time at Walsall. The fans took to me straight away and to captain the side has been a real honour."
He added: "Next season is all about kicking on and taking the club forward and I'm delighted that I'll be here to play a part in that."
Manager Dean Smith added: "I'm really pleased that Andy sees his future here at Walsall. He's a very popular figure both amongst the fans and in the dressing room. He leads by example and is a player with great ability and an attitude to match.
"I was very keen to seal his long-term future so to do so less than a week after the season has finished is very pleasing. I'm looking forward to him captaining the team again next season."

Someone (Vyxsin, I'm guessing if this pans out) inadvertently ruins somebody else's (Flight Time, see reasoning for Vyx) mold by fiddling around in the freezer?
Hi!Long time lurker, first post here. Peach clues are making me really worried for my favorite team. With the "IT IS A RACE TO THE FINISH" comment and especially the The pictures tell the story comment combined with the 2A promo caps, Im afraid I figured out who the eliminated team is. I hope Im wrong and this is all speculation, but if Im right, I hope they are not eliminated because they forgot their gnome because that would be terrible and sad considering their previous experience on the race...
Like I said...read the thread, form your own opinions. That's the FUN part!!
Not long until we find out.
And that team is??
Quote from: georgiapeach on May 01, 2011, 01:32:07 PMLike I said...read the thread, form your own opinions. That's the FUN part!!Peach, do you allow me to explain my reasoning and tell who my speculated eliminated team is ? I have no insider info, so all I did was to put the pieces together with your clues. It was fun every week until I figured out this week that the probable eliminated team was also my favorite one!
So when was the last time someone was eliminated after one of those little thirty minute penalties? I loved the close finish and the tasks this time. The detour choice was really important, I think Gary and Mallory would have done a lot better if they had chosen the other one. They had to be worn out from all the digging and the running to the pitstop.

He Who Loves to Travel
I've had several people ask me in the past how Cody handled traveling, particularly on long trips. I'm here to tell you I don't think I know anyone who enjoys traveling more than my son.
We have taken several long road trips as a family. Northern Wisconsin and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina are two of our favorite destinations; both are roughly 18 to 20 hours from our home.
One of the things that we have always done is to make sure that Cody knows about the trip well in advance. We spend a lot of time in the prior months and weeks, talking about what we're going to do and where we're going to stay. We discuss the smallest details like when we need to start packing, if we will have an overnight somewhere in between, and what kind of snacks we need to take to have along the way. If it is a fishing trip and we will be staying in a cabin and cooking many of our own meals, then we discuss with Cody what he would like to eat while we are there. This includes all three meals and snacks in between. We talk about what kind of weather is going on in the area we will be traveling to and what kind of clothing we will need to take and any shopping we need to do. Cody is involved in that too.
Providing Cody with details and making him involved in planning serves two purposes:
- It prepares him well ahead of time for what will be taking place.
- Since it is all discussed in an upbeat, positive manner, and he has physically taken part in the preparation for the trip, it gives him a sense of pride, something to look forward to and to be excited about.
Everyone takes their showers the night before so we can leave very early in the morning, usually around 3:00 a.m. When we go to wake Cody, we usually find him already wide awake and ready to jump out of bed at our request. He wastes no time getting his teeth brushed and getting himself dressed. And before we know it he is planted in his usual place in the back seat of the car and waiting for us to join him.
At this hour, many kids and adults who are back seat passengers would opt for passing the time by catching a snooze. We have always taken our own pillows along and told Cody that if he wanted to go back to sleep he was free to do so. Not even as a child has he ever taken that opportunity. He is much too interested in taking in and processing everything he sees along the way, from the very beginning to the very end, no matter how long the drive.
Cody is excited by the smallest of things such as stopping at McDonald's in another town. He is well versed in our routine for stopping at a gas station to refuel. He knows that he and Bill fill the car while I go in to use the restroom and when I come back out, they are done fueling the car and then they go to the men's room while I stay with the car.
Stopping at a hotel for an overnight stay along the way represents a milestone that has been reached. Cody knows that the following day we will arrive at our destination. He is not only compliant about taking his shower and sleeping in a bed that is not his own, but he does it with enthusiasm. Because we always get a double room, he feels safe in the new surroundings because our bed is right next to his. We always make sure he is involved in locking the doors at night before we go to sleep. We take along something that is from his room at home, such as Oscar, his favorite stuffed fish, as a measure to make him feel extra secure. Without fail, Cody always sleeps very soundly that night. And in the morning he is up and ready to go without hesitation.
Another few hours of travel time and we will be at our vacation spot and begin enjoying everything Cody has been looking forward to for so long!
By the end of our stay, we are all ready to head for home. At this point, Cody is now eager to sleep in his own bed, but still feels a sense of accomplishment, because of all the plans we made as a family, and his part in making them become a very happy reality.

Found a Land Cruiser. It's in Montana. If I can get it tomorrow, I can go to Overland Rally in Hollister. No problem. I can fly. But Gizmodo's Joe Brown says if I'm taking tomorrow off, I have to ride.
It's 592 miles to Hamilton, Montana from Portland, Oregon. My ass is going to curse him every mile.
The longest ride I've done on my bike in one run so far has been around 200 miles. I'll need to do at least that much tonight just to be able to get to the dealership at a reasonable time tomorrow.
I could have just flown tomorrow and had the dealer pick me up in Missoula. In fact, I was going to. But then Joe Brown decided that if I really wanted to earn a day off, I would have to ride—then figure out a way to get my motorcycle back from Montana. There's no Uhaul office that has a trailer to rent, but there may be a place in Missoula. Or I could buy a motorcycle hitch carrier and take my Yamaha XT225 dual-sport with me down to the Rally. (That's not the bike I'm riding to Montana.)
All I know is the sun is already getting low in the sky. I have to run to the credit union to sign the loan paperwork. And then I have to hit the blacktop and burn off as many miles as I can make in a day.
I wish I would have bought a windscreen for my Suzuki. This is going to be a chilly trip.
If you have advice, the best thing to do is hit me up on Twitter. I'm @joeljohnson. But you can ring or text me if you have any ideas. Just keep in mind I won't be answering my phone while I'm on the bike. (347) 495-0610
Damn you, Joe Brown. My fingers are cold just typing.

I believe everyone has a bucket list of sorts. Some people's lists may contain such lofty goals as climbing Mt. Everest or snorkeling the Great Barrier Reef, while other's lists may be a bit more humble. My own main list does contain a hike to Machu Picchu and visiting Gauguin's grave, but I also have a smaller food driven list that I am starting to work on slowly.
It may sound kind of insignificant to someone who doesn't really love to cook, but I am starting to use ingredients that I have heard of my whole life, but up until now have snubbed for one reason or another. For instance, as much as I cook I have never stuffed a squash blossom, sautéed an oyster or cooked a sweetbread. I'm not too sure if I really want to sauté an oyster or cook a sweetbread, but there they are on the bottom of my list. I did eat a raw oyster once when I was a squeamish eighteen year old and had a bit of a chicken fried calf testicle when I was two months pregnant and sick at the sight of pretty much anything. If I dwell on these experiences for too long I can still gag a little bit. . . peer pressure don't cha know. Thank goodness I can check those two off my list.
Last week I had an occasion to cook with one of my bucket list ingredients when my neighbor brought over a bundle of rhubarb a friend had given her. I have grown up hearing about strawberry rhubarb pie my whole life but have always been put off a bit by rhubarb's celery appearance, the unappetizing name and a rumor I heard a long time ago that it is poison in its raw state. Well, come to find out, the leaves in super great quantities that no one would really eat, have been known to make goats sick or something like that.
Knowing that this was my chance to tick one off my list I accepted her gift and went to work. I challenged myself to make something a little different than the usual strawberry rhubarb pie. I dug through my pretty well stocked pantry and came up with some sour cherry preserves which were given to me by another neighbor. I combined the two with some other ingredients I had hanging around and the result is a really great recipe if I do say so myself. Not only have I now come one ingredient closer to dying a happy cook, I understand what all the hoopla is surrounding this odd looking vegetable. So if you're like me and haven't cooked with rhubarb, or even if you have, give this recipe a try and I guarantee it won't be your last time.
Sour Cherry Rhubarb Bars
2 ounces coarsely chopped almonds
1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup quick cooking oatmeal
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 cup light brown sugar
1 cup water
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups chopped rhubarb
1 cup sour cherry preserves
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a small frying pan set over medium high heat, toast almonds (stirring frequently) until they are a golden brown; set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the almonds, flour, oatmeal, butter and brown sugar; stir well to combine completely. Press half of the mixture evenly into the bottom of a greased 9" square glass dish; set aside.
In a medium size sauce pan, cook water, sugar, cornstarch and vanilla over medium heat until it boils. Lower heat to simmer and cook until it thickens. Add rhubarb and preserves and cook until the preserves are completely dissolved. Remove from the heat and gently pour over the oatmeal mixture in the pan. Place pan into the preheated oven and cook for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the remaining oatmeal mixture evenly over the top. Return to the oven and continue baking for an additional 20 – 25 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Cover with foil if it begins to brown too much. Remove from the oven and cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. The longer it cools, the better it sets.
Serve warm with ice cream or at room temperature.
Serves 8

Adopt a Gluten-free Blogger: Carol Kicinski Simply Gluten-free Desserts
This month I decided to adopt Carol Kicinski of the blog Simply Gluten-free. I'd heard about her cookbook Simply Gluten-free Desserts and thought it sounded lovely. When Carol sent me a review copy, I thought that the timing was perfect. I needed someone to adopt, and here was this great recipe collection and gluten-free blogger ready and waiting! Carol's book is truly a delight to look through. There are so many recipe that sound perfect for company, or perfect for a special family treat, from red velvet cupcakes to No-bake Chocolate Truffle Cake to creme brulee. There are also some very creative recipe, from dairy free cream puffs (on my to-do list!) to peanut-butter and jelly ice cream sandwiches, to dairy-free pumpkin creme brulee. You can also tell that Carol is very familiar with the gluten-free community and its resources as she shares classic forum favorites as black bean brownies and the ubiquitous flour-less peanut butter cookies. The range of recipes really makes this book a treasure trove for the newly diagnosed as well as the long-time veteran in the gluten-free trenches.
The only slight hiccup was just as I was all set to make some recipes from Carol's cookbook and blog, the DH went traipsing off on a week long business trip to Florida. He is the major sweet tooth in our household. Granted, my mother has a not-so-secret sweet tooth of her own, but she is perpetually on a diet, so not always helpful at consuming goodies. And Toddler Yum does like sweets but I limit her sugar pretty heavily- this kid loves snap peas and artichokes and I'd like to keep it that way! So I hesitated, and waffled, and thought long and hard about what to make from Carol's cookbook. Interestingly, while Carol's main flour blend is a white-flour blend, she has quite a few grain-free recipes in her cookbook, like chestnut flour crepes and nut flour muffins.
I decided to make her almond-flour based apple cinnamon muffins because they sounded so darned good and I could feel good about sharing them with Toddler Yum as they were only sweetened with Agave nectar. The recipe yielded twelve moist, sweet but not overpoweringly sweet muffins. Everyone that tried them, from Toddler Yum to my Mother to the intrepid JM liked them, and I was happy to have tried them.
I also tried her chestnut flour crepes from the cookbook. It was a good way to break into the bags of chestnut flour I'd been hoarding in my cupboard, and it sounded simple and tasty. I didn't make the filling, though, because I didn't have whipping cream and so I may have missed out on the full experience. Nevertheless, Toddler Yum nibbled on them happily enough. I had never used chestnut flour before and so I was surprised by the toasted-nut fragrance in the flour. It reminded me of kinako, toasted soy flour that is used in Japanese sweets recipes as a topping, and I wondered if I could use kinako in recipes interchangeably with chestnut flour. Ultimately, I wasn't sure that the taste of straight chestnut flour was quite my thing, but I appreciated that Carol had a recipe that I could try, and now that the bag has been opened perhaps I can find other recipes that just use it as a complementary flour that would suit our household.
The final recipe I tried from Carol's cookbook was her famous cinnamon rolls.
This recipe used Carol's classic white-rice, sweet rice, potato starch and tapioca starch flour blend. I think the DH would heartily approve, as he always liked using a similar white-rice mix from Bette Hagman. I hadn't baked with white rice or sweet rice flour in a while, so it was good to get out those flours and look forward to recipes using a "normal" white flour blend that would emulate its gluten counterpart. I loved how easy it was to make. You whisk the dry ingredients together and then blend the wet dairy ingredients together in a food processor. Toddler Yum got a huge charge out of pressing the pulse button on my food processor. Next you add the dry ingredients to the food processor and pulse it together. This resulted in more joy from the toddler- a happy perk. The dough that comes out of the food processor is amazingly easy to work with. Carol says that the strength of this recipe is not just in the ingredients, but in the technique, and I have to agree. I love that Carol gives us the chance to knead the dough, and her technique of rolling the dough between two layers of parchment sprayed with oil is just brilliant. Now, her recipe calls for a 9 or 10 inch springform pan. I'm embarrassed to admit that I had to look up springform pan. Sure enough, I didn't have one. Instead I used an 8 inch cake pan lined with two long strips of parchment set together to form a cross, so that you can easily remove the cinnamon rolls out of the pan. I couldn't fit one of the cinnamon rolls in the pan and so I baked it separately. As a bonus, this became my first "tester" cinnamon roll that I could gobble up right away hot out of the oven. I did let it cool for about 5 minutes first. Anyway, not only was this dough very easy to work with, but it produced an excellent cinnamon roll.
My Mother was reminded of her childhood, when a visiting great-grandma would mix up a batch of cinnamon rolls for her parents, she and her two sisters at their farm. She said this gluten-free version was delicious, and while it was not quite as fluffy as the gluten-version, the taste was spot on. The dear Toddler Yum gobbled up a bit and asked for more. And as for me, well, I had one for breakfast with my latte and then had another as I was writing this post. This could be addicting! I do feel a bit bad having made this while the DH was away. The last time he was away I made (raw, nut-based) cheesecake. This time I made homemade cinnamon rolls. Cruel? A little bit… I may have to make this recipe again when he is home, since I don't think we will have any left by the time he gets home…tomorrow.
The next recipe I plan to make from Carol's book is her Lemon Bar recipe. This is something I always enjoy ordering at gluten-free bakeries, but never make myself. I think it is time to change that! Also, my Mother loves lemon in any form, but lemon bars in particular, so it would be nice to make some to share. But after that, those dairy-free cream puffs are fair game, as soon as I figure out how to adapt Carol's flour blend to be potato-free so that I can share them with my allergic friend JM.
Since this is an "Adopt a gluten-free BLOGGER" event and not just an "adopt a gluten-free cookbook author" event I wanted to make sure to make some recipes from Carol's blog. I had such a good time looking through Carol's photos of her recipes. I was delighted to find some vegan and vegetarian savory recipes that Carol made for her son and family. I bookmarked Carol's Recipe for African Vegan Sunbutter Stew and loved reading about her travels in Africa. However, I simply could not resist her recipe for Gluten-free Vegan Spoonbread with a Mess of Greens. She had me at greens… and spoonbread intrigued me as well. As a Yankee… am I a Yankee? No, ok, as a Northwestern native from Seattle, I had never heard of spoonbread. What was it? At first I assumed it was corn bread, but the dough was so liquid I knew that it had to be different. In fact, I was so worried about how liquid the batter was that I sent Carol a message asking if that was normal! Poor Carol. Anyway, I also did a little research on my own and found out that spoonbread is like a cross between "polenta, cornbread and a souffle" and should be soft enough that you can eat it with a spoon. Well, that explains the name! We enjoyed the spoonbread.
Toddler Yum gobbled it up plain like candy, and I covered it with a mess of Carol's spicy greens. Oh how I do love Southern-style greens… when they are vegetarian! I'd made them before, but I enjoyed Carol's version so much that I can't wait to make it again, maybe with a few changes just for fun. I was thinking some seared mushroom bites would be a tasty savory addition to the recipe… or maybe toasted nuts. Yum! I've bookmarked another of Carol's vegan recipes for Creamy Brussel Sprouts and plan on making them in the next day or so.
As always, this adoption was a true pleasure, and I am grateful to have had the chance to review Carol's wonderful book. It is a wonderful resource, and I know it will come in handy whether I need to make a glutenoid-approved dessert for an event or just a sweet treat for our family. You can watch Carol on youtube and hear more about her fascinating story, and I hope you will check out her blog and cookbook too!

WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has $2.7 million to support community-based partnerships for reducing risks from toxics.
EPA will award the funds to cooperative agreements through its Community Action for a Renewed Environment (CARE) program.
Level I cooperative agreements will help establish community-based partnerships and set priorities for reducing risks from toxics in a community. Past projects include addressing water quality in Puget Sound, helping to rebuild St. Bernard Parish in Louisiana, helping the Cherokee Nation deal with toxic waste, and reducing air toxics in Tucson. EPA anticipates awarding eight to 10 cooperative Level I agreement nationwide, ranging from $75,000 to $100,000.
Level II cooperative agreements are for communities that already have undertaken a comprehensive process to assess toxic risks, formed a broad-based collaborative, have identified risk reduction priorities and are ready to implement risk reduction strategies. EPA expects to award six to eight cooperative agreements nationally, ranging from $150,000 to $300,000.
County and local governments, tribes, non-profit organizations and universities can apply for funding. EPA will conduct conference calls on Feb. 20 and 26 and March 1, for prospective applicants to ask questions about the application process. Applications are due April 9, 2007.
The CARE program, which began in 2005, helps to build broad-based local partnerships for reducing risks from toxic pollutants.
