Sangria holds happy memories for me - it was the drink du jour at almost ANY Mexican restaurant in Australia in the 80's and 90's! Come to think of it ... it's a wonder I CAN recall it, given it's 'punch' properties!

Sangria gets made a few times in accompanyment with my father-in-laws homemade wine...ohhh yes...we are spoiled indeed! For some reason I'll never make the Sangria the same way...I do love to experiment. That will include a try at yours too ;o)
Have a great day and by all means...go easy on the booze;o)
Flavourful wishes, Claudia
- July 4, 2010 at 8:24 AM
That looks like a very authentic recipe! I don't drink alcohol so my version has red grape juice and lemonade (sorry!) in amongst other things, so I guess it can't really be called sangría...but it tastes good anyhow!
Happy 4th July Mary x

Our daughter and her boyfriend came over on Wednesday night and made dinner for us - barbecued salmon, roasted corn, cheese risotto and artichokes. It was a feast! They made sangria,and the leftover fruit is sitting in the fridge, in the dregs of the wine, perfect over ice cream!

Thanks for your comment on my blog! I'm so glad you did because it allowed me to find your blog - which is fabulous from what I've seen and read so far!

Sangria is so summery and one must remember, "I am drinking alcohol" as one sips and then gulps! The wedding story is so lovely. I hope it was just the most perfect day for both of them - to savor - forever and a day.

Goodness, Mary, we must be on the same wavelength!!
I had two bottles of Two Buck Chuck merlot that someone brought to a potluck party a few months ago, and although I didn't want to drink them straight, I hated the idea of tossing them out.
So for the 4th of July picnic-potluck we attended in Malibu, I made a big jug of sangria. I had a couple of lemons, a couple of blood oranges, and some limes in the fruit bowl, plus a box of Farmer's Market strawberries.
I used cognac like you did, and also added some Cointreau. Instead of sugar I just went half-and-half with soda water and ginger ale.
It was a big hit and perfect for our fireworks watching evening!

I love a good sangria--it's worth the punch it packs! It's the perfect drink for summer.

- nancy at good food matters said...
It is, indeed, the time of year when Sangria is well enjoyed---we just served a big batch this past weekend for a family birthday party. My recipe is similar, but also has some Triple Sec in it.
Nice reflections on the concurrent weddings.

Our daughter looks forward to her time with her tutor every week. He is a mentor, a friend, and goes the extra mile before tests to make sure she has everything she needs to feel competent and prepared.
I've met with multiple tutors at HPT over several semesters for help in trig, calculus, linear algebra, and differential equations. They saved me from failing a few times. I'm pleased with the useful and professional support I received.
My son went from a frustrated 9th grader getting D's on his math tests to straight A's for the next three years. He actually signed himself up for AP Calculus his senior year because he wanted to maintain his knowledge going into college.
I was taking Stochastic I at the U of U, a 5000 level math class, for which it is difficult to find a tutor. High Performance Tutoring set me up with Ben who was knowledgeable, flexible, and easy for me to understand. I credit his help with my passing the class.
I was very pleased with the services that I received through High Performance Tutoring. I had an advanced statistics class my last semester in college. My tutor was excellent and he was available to meet with me whenever I needed. I finally started to understand the material and I passed with a B+!
High Performance Tutoring is the best tutoring service in Salt Lake City! After trying out several others, including the resources available at the University, I finally had great success with Victor, the tutor they matched me with. I loved working with him and earned high grades in all my math classes!

Today's Comic
What the Fuck Did I Just Watch?!
October 21, 2005
First off, I plug friends.
If you read Dragon Magazine in the late 80s or early 90s, you remember an amazing comic called Yamara.
Yamara lives on
thanks to the web... and the creators are wonderful people. Go discover, or rediscover, this comic.
If you're in the Tampa Bay area next weekend, don't forget to go to
. The fine people from
Interchangeable Parts
will perform Rocky Horror Picture Show on Friday night - and on Sunday morning at 10am, they'll be doing a panel on shadow casting. Now, here's the best part. They'll have done ANOTHER show Saturday night and I'm sure they'll be wonderfully lucid. I'm going to ask my friend Dan (aka Mango) if he'd mind if I sent him art to hand out to readers/people as he sees fit (in other words, be a dick to him, you get nothing). If he says yes, I'll let you all know. Also, IP will have have their Halloween show on October 29th in St. Pete Beach.
Closer to Boston, the
Teseracte Players
will do a show on the 29th as well at 11pm at the Dedham Community Theatre that, I'm told, will be zombie themed. Go check it out... apparently, on cast that night will be Elize who was the inspiration for the now notorious
"For You!"
comic. She loves when people scream, "For you!" at her. Honest. And if she gives me permission, I'll even link to her website.
Also on the weekend of the 28th, Clarine Harp (the inspiration for Aubrey) will be a guest at
Anime Vegas
. I'm sending her artwork to hand out as well to readers who show up - totally at her discretion (here's a hint. If you ask her if you can have some art, you're not going to get any). Stop by and say hi.
Okay. Now that that's over - it's time for some rage.
At Anime Fest, some readers gave me a DVD for a movie called
The Apple
. It's a musical from 1980.
And it's proof that these were obviously readers who do not like me.
I've seen some shit in my day. I can recite to you the movie
Avenging Disco Godfather
. But this was just utter crap on every level, and barely worth making fun up. It's got some typical misogynistic overtones ("Oh, those women - always wandering off to evil and led so easily there - good thing we men are about to lead them back on the right path") and a female lead who is every date rapist's dream come true ("I've known you for five minutes. Here's a pill. Swallow it. I promise you'll be fine." "OKAY!") and, best of all, IT'S AN ALLEGORY FOR THE BOOK OF REVELATIONS! Yes, because we needed the end times to be turned into a shitty rock opera where all the cars are 1978 Buicks with Jetsons fins on them. Oh, and it all takes place in the futuristic world of 1994. Oh, and there are hippies. And, of course, hippies are the only ones who truly understand the true nature of all that is good and corporations are all evil.
I have endured some cinematic bowel movements in my time but I'd rather take a thermite enema while all my ex-girlfriends sit around me in a circle and ask me about my feelings than watch this putrid nonsense again. How the fuck did this thing get greenlighted? How in the Hell did someone read this awful script, where in the future record companies run the world and judge how popular a performer is by monitoring their audience's heart beats (no, I'm not joking) and say, "Yes, that will catch the attention of the movie viewing public"? There are less contrived plotlines in Winx Club slashfic written by sexually confused pre-teen girls. Someone owes me a fucking apology for this thing existing.
And I swear to Jesus, the next one of you die-hard Rocky Horror fans comes up to me at a con and starts bitching at me about how much you hate Shock Treatment and how it is "the worst movie ever," I'm going to force your anus to prolapse with a crowbar, drag you into a dark room by your hunk of rectal meats and make you WATCH this abortion.
So... fucking... angry this movie exists.
. There's no excuse for this shit. None at all. I hope everyone involved in its production got some strange and confusing STD during the making of it, like Kitten Hepatitis Z. God
If you'll excuse me, I need to go ejaculate some rage for an hour or two. -

Microsoft is reportedly set to partner up with Samsung to push Windows Phone out to businesses. According to reports, the two companies are looking to form a similar partnership that Microsoft has developed with both Nokia and HTC with Windows Phone 8. This will come as a slight surprise to those who believe Samsung continue to place Windows Phone on the backbench while Android hardware remains top priority.
Head of B2B marketing on the Windows Phone team, Rikke Rasmussen has revealed that Microsoft will be pitching ideas with Samsung as soon as the manufacturing partner is ready. It's claimed that talks will kick off following the launch of the Samsung ATIV S. Rasmussen states a number of high-profile businesses have already switched from BlackBerry to Windows Phone, including a recent deal with HML Skipton - the UK's fourth largest building society.
"Business is very important to us – [WP8] sits really well with SMBs. There are a lot of BlackBerry customers that are looking at other options, the full integration with Windows 8 makes sense and is cost effective for them. Everyone will be affected by BB10, it's just a question of what that effect will be. It's a big market though and there should be enough room for both of us. From our perspective, we will be trying to stay neutral with the manufacturers. We will be doing joint stuff with Samsung, as we do with HTC and Nokia, as soon as they are ready."
With the launch of BlackBerry 10, RIM has a long standing relationship with companies who remain loyal to the brand with employees sporting such hardware as company mobile phones. It'll be interesting to see if Microsoft and Samsung can tap into this market to drive up sales to not only consumers, but to the working world as well.

Man page (한국어)
Man pages ("manual pages"의 약어)는 아치 리눅스를 포함해 모든 UNIX와 비슷한 운영체제들에 기본적으로 제공되는 설명서들이며
man은 그 설명서들을 표시하는데 사용되는 명령어입니다.
In spite of their scope, man pages are designed to be self-contained documents, consequentially limiting themselves to referring to other man pages when discussing related subjects. This is in sharp contrast with the hyperlink-aware info files, GNU's attempt at replacing the traditional man page format.
Man 문서 접근하는 방법

$ man page_name
설명서들은 아래의 목록들로 정렬이된다.

Man pages are usually referred to by their name, followed by their section number in parentheses. Often there are multiple man pages of the same name, such as man(1) and man(7). In this case, give man the section number followed by the name of the man page, for example:
$ man 5 passwd
to read the man page on
/etc/passwd, rather than the
passwd utility.
Very brief descriptions of programs can be read out of man pages without displaying the whole page using the
whatis command. For example, for a brief description of ls, type:
$ whatis ls
whatis will output "list directory contents."
Man pages all follow a fairly standard format, which helps in navigating them. Some sections which are often present include:
- NAME - The name of the command and a one-line statement of its purpose.
- SYNOPSIS - A list of the options and arguments a command takes or the parameters the function takes and its header file.
- DESCRIPTION - A more in depth description of a command or function's purpose and workings.
- EXAMPLES - Common examples, usually ranging from the simple to the relatively complex.
- OPTIONS - Descriptions of each of the options a command takes and what they do.
- EXIT STATUS - The meanings of different exit codes.
- FILES - Files related to a command or function.
- BUGS - Problems with the command or function that are pending repair. Also known as KNOWN BUGS.
- SEE ALSO - A list of related commands or functions.
- AUTHOR, HISTORY, COPYRIGHT, LICENSE, WARRANTY - Information about the program, its past, its terms of use, and its creator.
설명서 검색
Whilst the
man utility allows users to display man pages, a problem arises when one knows not the exact name of the desired manual page in the first place! Fortunately, the
-k or
--apropos options can be used to search the manual page descriptions for instances of a given keyword. For example, to search for man pages related to "password":
$ man -k password
$ man --apropos password
This is equivalent to calling the
apropos command:
$ apropos password
The given keyword is interpreted as a regular expression by default.
Colored man pages
For some users, color-enabled man pages allow for a clearer presentation and easier digestion of the content. Given that users new to Linux are prone to spend a considerable amount of time familiarizing themselves with basic userspace tools, setting up a comfortable environment is a necessity to most.
There are two prevalent methods for achieving colored man pages: using
most, or opting for
less. The former is simpler to configure, at the expense of the advanced functionality that is native to
First method: using 'most'
# pacman -S most
This is similar to
less and
more, yet allows rendering colored text in an easier way.
/etc/man_db.conf, uncomment the pager definition and change it to:
DEFINE pager most -s
Test the new setup by typing:
$ man whatever_man_page
Modifying the color values requires editing
~/.mostrc (creating the file if it is not present) or editing
/etc/most.conf for system-wide changes. Example
% Color settings color normal lightgray black color status yellow blue color underline yellow black color overstrike brightblue black
Another example showing keybindings similar to
less (jump to line is set to 'J'):
% less-like keybindings unsetkey "^K" unsetkey "g" unsetkey "G" unsetkey ":" setkey next_file ":n" setkey find_file ":e" setkey next_file ":p" setkey toggle_options ":o" setkey toggle_case ":c" setkey delete_file ":d" setkey exit ":q" setkey bob "g" setkey eob "G" setkey down "e" setkey down "E" setkey down "j" setkey down "^N" setkey up "y" setkey up "^Y" setkey up "k" setkey up "^P" setkey up "^K" setkey page_down "f" setkey page_down "^F" setkey page_up "b" setkey page_up "^B" setkey other_window "z" setkey other_window "w" setkey search_backward "?" setkey bob "p" setkey goto_mark "'" setkey find_file "E" setkey edit "v"
Second method: using 'less'
Alternatively, getting an approximate coloured result in manual pages with
less is also a possibility. This method has the advantage that
less has a bigger feature set than
most, and that might be the preference for advanced users.
Add the following to a shell configuration file. For Bash it would be
man() { env \ LESS_TERMCAP_mb=$(printf "\e[1;37m") \ LESS_TERMCAP_md=$(printf "\e[1;37m") \ LESS_TERMCAP_me=$(printf "\e[0m") \ LESS_TERMCAP_se=$(printf "\e[0m") \ LESS_TERMCAP_so=$(printf "\e[1;47;30m") \ LESS_TERMCAP_ue=$(printf "\e[0m") \ LESS_TERMCAP_us=$(printf "\e[0;36m") \ man "$@" }
To customize the colors, see Wikipedia:ANSI escape code for reference.
Reading man pages with a browser
Instead of the standard interface, using browsers such as lynx and Firefox to view man pages allows users to reap info pages' main benefit: hyperlinked text. Additionally, KDE users can read man pages in Konqueror using:
Using Local Man Pages
First, install man2html from the AUR.
Now, convert a man page:
$ man free | man2html -compress -cgiurl man$section/$title.$section$subsection.html > ~/man/free.html
Another use for
man2html is exporting to raw, printer-friendly text:
$ man free | man2html -bare > ~/free.txt
The GNU implementation of man in the Arch repositories also has the ability to do this on its own:
$ man -H free
This will read your
BROWSER environment variable to determine the browser. You can override this by passing the binary to the -H option.
Using Online Man Pages
There are several online databases of man pages, many of them listed on Wikipedia:Man_page#Repositories_of_manual_pages, including:
- Debian GNU/Linux man pages
- DragonFlyBSD manual pages
- FreeBSD Hypertext Man Pages
- Linux and Solaris 10 Man Pages
- Linux/FreeBSD Man Pages with user comments

Crystal Dice
Invented by Michael Bowling of Tuscon, Arizona, and covered by U.S. patents, these crystal dice are unlike any dice you have ever seen before. Instead of the usual polyhedral dice which are in the shape of platonic solids, these are elongated and are shaped just like a magic crystal you might find on a pendant.

We plan our features, write our elegant and efficient code, and test it to make sure it does everything the customer would want. Then, after the application ships and everyone involved pats each other on the back for a job well done, we start getting reports sometimes within days, sometimes much later on that there is something wrong with the application. It lets people harvest personal data, or exposes the customer to compromise, or worse yet, it is wormable and can be used to attack other devices with the app on them. It appears we have forgotten to include some simple, easily integrated security development practices.
This scenario happens all too often, largely because it is still rare for developers to consider security as a feature. Instead it is an afterthought (often, so far after that it arises only when customers start to complain). While security may not be the feature that will win you an award for your newest phone or tablet application, it is the one that will help to keep your customers from banging down your proverbial door with complaints about theft and fraud. Based on recent estimates, adding security can save upwards of four times the ROI if it is done during development, instead of waiting until the security vulnerability is released and requires an update.
The good news is that automated code-time and test-time security activities are easy to integrate into development practices. While security should ideally be considered throughout the development lifecycle, from design to sustained engineering and response, I will focus on code-time (implementation) and test-time (verification) activities that are simple to apply and pay huge dividends by delivering more-resilient applications and fewer exploitable security bugs.
Automation Is a Developer's (and Tester's) Best Friend
While a solid process, such as an application security process based on ISO 27034-1, is a giant leap forward for the development of trustworthy applications, developers tend to struggle with the one small step of applying basic techniques in a rigorous way without tools and automation. At Microsoft, our development teams rely on several tools to get the job done in each part of the Security Development Lifecycle (SDL), ranging from process templates in Visual Studio (so you know when you've finished the security work for a given set of targets) to binary analyzers, fuzzers, and attack surface analyzers.
Tools are good, automated is better. If a developer must stop coding or break out of the IDE to run a test, the odds are high it won't be run, or at least won't be run consistently. Most IDE's these days have plug-ins or hard-wired security capabilities; it is a case of being familiar with that capability and using it. In fact, all of the switches I call out below can be enabled in a project template in Visual Studio as well as set as defaults in gcc environments, so it is a "one and done" solution for developers if they build a custom template for all future projects. Test tools are a bit less integrated, but some snap right into the IDE as plug-ins (such as MiniFuzz), and some can be made to run as part of a test harness, like Ubuntu's Python scripts.
Security at Code-Time
When it comes to code-time security, compiler flags are your best friend for identifying low-hanging fruit and are still vastly underutilized for the benefit they provide.
Visual Studio
It is important to automate your build to use the right flags and switches. Some security switches exist in Visual Studio that will mitigate a wide variety of known and dangerous issues. Some of these issues are the most common types of attacks seen against client software (non-Web based); specifically, memory corruption and error handling. To effectively mitigate memory-corruption issues, there are two tacks to take. The first of these, and easiest, is to randomize the stack and heap so that even if an app causes an overflow condition, the randomized location of that program in memory makes it extremely difficult to actually predict the execution path for the injected instructions. Randomizing the heap and stack, and mitigating other common exploits, can be done simply by enabling the
/SAFESEH, and
APTCA functions in Visual Studio. To break these down a bit, let's examine each in turn:
Buffer Security Check
/GS switch provides a "speed bump" or cookie between the buffer and the return address. If an overflow writes over the return address, it will have to overwrite the cookie put in between it and the buffer, resulting in a new stack layout:
Function parameters
Function return address
Frame pointer
Exception Handler frame
Locally declared variables and buffers
Callee save registers
Note that
/GS is enabled by default in Visual Studio 2012.
/DYNAMICBASE modifies the header of an executable to indicate whether the application should be randomly rebased at load time by the OS. The random rebase is well known as Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR). This option also implies "
/FIXED:NO," which will generate a relocation section in the executable.
/NXCOMPAT is used to specify an executable as compatible with Data Execution Prevention (DEP). This option applies for x86 binaries only. Non-x86 architecture versions of desktop Windows (e.g., x64, ARM) always enforce DEP if the executable is not running in WOW64 mode. There is little value to
NXCOMPAT without using the complimentary
DYNAMICBASE switch, as they work in concert.
Exception Handler Safety
/SafeSEH is a method to allow software-enforced DEP to perform additional checks on exception handling mechanisms in Windows. If the program's image files are built with Safe Structured Exception Handling (SafeSEH), software-enforced DEP ensures that before an exception is dispatched, the exception handler is registered in the function table located within the image file.
Finally, there is an easy way! Visual Studio 2012 has introduced the
SDL switch, which enables these functions and more automatically. In addition to enabling the flags already discussed,
/SDL causes a number of compiler warnings to be treated as errors the Microsoft
SDL treats these warnings as mandatory for native code:
Command line switch
A unary minus operator was applied to an unsigned type, resulting in an unsigned result
A negative integral constant converted to unsigned type, resulting in a possibly meaningless result
Use of "continue", "break" or "goto" keywords in a __finally/finally block has undefined behavior during abnormal termination
Code initializing a variable will not be executed
Use of an uninitialized local variable
Potential use of an uninitialized local pointer variable
Buffer overrun when specific C runtime (CRT) functions are used
Use of a function marked with pragma deprecated
Use of a function marked as deprecated
While the aforementioned are Microsoft-centric approaches to security during compile, other compilers are not lacking for such features. GCC, for example, has a suite of capabilities that provide much of the same type of coverage, from stack protection to setting memory sections to read-only, to ASLR. Let's look at each in turn.
gcc fstackprotector
-fstack-protector provides a randomized stack "canary" that protects against stack overflows and reduces the chances of arbitrary code execution by controlling return address destinations.
ld z relro hardens ELF programs against loader memory area overwrites by having the loader mark any areas of the relocation table as read-only for any symbols resolved at load-time ("read-only relocations") to reduce possible GOT-overwrite-style memory corruption attacks.
ld pie / gcc fPIE: The gcc equivalent to
DYNAMICBASE is
-fPIE, which provides ASLR support. This protects against "return-to-text" and provides good mitigation of memory corruption attacks.
gcc D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 O2: Programs built with
-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 (and
-O1 or higher) enable several compile-time and runtime protections in glibc:
- Expands unbounded calls to
strcpyinto their "
n" length-limited cousins when the size of a destination buffer is known (protects against memory overflows).
- Stops format string "
%n" attacks when the format string is in a writable memory segment.
- Requires checking various important function return codes and arguments (e.g.,
- Requires explicit file mask when creating new files.
gcc Wformat Wformatsecurity: If
-Wformat is specified, the compiler also warns about uses of format functions that represent possible security problems. At present, this warns about calls to
printf and
scanf functions where the format string is not a string and there are no format arguments, as in
printf (foo);. This could be a security hole if the format string came from untrusted input and contains "
Security at Test Time
Binscope enables developers to verify they've applied the basic set of security controls during build on Visual Studio projects. For ELF binaries, Ubuntu has a great set of Python scripts to help you do regression tests.
Testing isn't just about functionality anymore, it is about whether an application plays nice with the system on which it runs and whether it does what the user expects both in what they see and what the app does beneath the covers. Attack Surface Analyzer enables a tester to see whether the app installs and uninstalls cleanly, whether it opens up vulnerabilities in the file or RPC system, and whether it creates security vulnerabilities in the registry. All of these things are usually not seen by the user, but are vital for an app to be a good citizen on the user's system. Ubuntu has the previously mentioned Python scripts to provide similar types of coverage for known filesystem issues such as symlink and hardlink race conditions, and to reduce the need for setuid applications.
Testing for known and easy issues such as compile-time switches and good behavior with system permissions is all well and good, but often, the most insidious vulnerabilities are those you don't expect. Testing with a good fuzzing library can help you find issues you didn't even know existed logic flaws, race conditions, and memory leaks. Fuzzing is not only good for security, but can improve performance as well. There are numerous free fuzzers available for both UNIX and Windows platforms. On the Windows side, Minifuzz integrates well with Visual Studio and provides a good introductory fuzzer for developers and testers who have never used a fuzzer before. For UNIX, there are a wide variety of fuzzers, some of which require a significant investment in time to make them work and to integrate them into your test and build environments. Some of my preferred of the commonly available are SPIKE and its variants (SPIKEFile, SPIKE Proxy), Sharefuzz, and lxapi.
The Future is Bright…
When you are writing code or testing apps, there are numerous ways across platforms to make your app more secure. I have only covered a small portion of the possibilities here, and only in two aspects of the lifecycle for apps. There are other automated solutions to make your app more secure by design, such as threat modeling and attack surface analysis. At the very least, this article should give you a list of things to do to make sure your app has few to none of the common coding issues exploited currently; and it should help give your tests a clear area of focus in finding security issues before you release.

Daring Baker's Challenge # 2 -- Dorie Greenspan's Perfect Party Cake
Finally, a Daring Baker's Challenge this gluten free, ginger lemon girl could handle! They really believe in a serious challenge every month, those pesky Daring Baker's! But I love it! It's fun to be given a secret challenge once a month to bake something that I most likely have never baked before! This month's challenge, hosted by Morven, is Dorie Greenspan's Perfect Party Cake.
Can we say SUGAR HIGH?
Oh my goodness. Yes!
Actually, as much as I love sweet desserts, Hershey's chocolate bars, and chocolate icing... I just can't take things SUPER sweet. I really can't. And this cake IS SO super sweet!!
It's a beautiful cake and it was relatively easy to convert to gluten free, but next time I will cut the sugar in half... or more. I also need to work on how to change the consistency of the cake. I think I may have added a bit too much xanthan gum, which gave the cake layers a very gummy texture. I also lowered the amount of fat from the original recipe. I used reduced fat cream cheese in place of 4 Tbsp. of butter. The cake was delicious (though incredibly sweet!)
The best part about this cake was that it created an instant friendship between myself and fellow gluten free bloggers and Daring Bakers: Natalie of Gluten Free A Go Go, and Esther of The Lilac Kitchen (Proud mama of a new baby boy!). We spent one Saturday morning baking our cakes and emailing each other back and forth on how our individual recipes were turning out, what we were learning, and if we needed help with anything! It was a wonderful and fun baking experience, which I hope the three of us will repeat on a regular basis!
The 2nd best part was that I learned how to make a true "hot" buttercream icing by following the directions exactly. Don't take any reduced fat shortcuts here, my friends. It just won't work! This buttercream has to be just that... full of full-fat butter for it to come together properly. I tried to make a reduced fat version the first time and it was not a pretty site. But once I got the hang of the icing, I felt like a baking queen. Watch out Martha Stewart! I've got the whole buttercream thing down pat, my dear! You've got nothing on me... okay, except for maybe all that crafty stuff...
Here is my gluten free rendition of Dorie Greenspan's Perfect Party Cake. I have lowered the original amounts of xanthan gum and sugar that I used. If you try this cake, please let me know how it turns out for you! Learning how to make the buttercream is definitely a skill worth having!
Dorie Greenspan's Perfect Party Cake
(adapted gluten free, lower sugar, and lower fat)
Cake Ingredients:
1/2 cup brown rice flour
1 cup tapioca flour
1/2 cup sweet rice flour
1/4 cup + 2 Tbsp. coconut flour
1 Tbsp. + 1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. xanthan gum
1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/4 cup low fat buttermilk
4 large egg whites
3/4 cup sugar
1 Tbsp. grated lemon zest
1/2 stick (4 Tbsp.) butter, unsalted, room temp.
4 Tbsp. reduced fat cream cheese
1/2 tsp. lemon extract
Buttercream Ingredients
(Please don't faint!)
1 cup sugar
4 large egg whites
3 sticks (YES, 3 sticks) unsalted butter, room temp.
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 tsp. vanilla extract
Finishing Ingredients
2/3 cup reduced sugar strawberry preserves, stirred vigorously, or warmed
Directions for the cake:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter 2 9" cake pans and line bottoms with round of buttered parchment paper or wax paper. Place pans on a heavy baking sheet.
2. In a medium sized bowl, sift together flours, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. In another medium sized bowl, whisk together buttermilk and egg whites. Put sugar and lemon zest in a mixer bowl and rub together until sugar is moist and fragrant.
3. Add butter and cream cheese. With paddle attachment, beat at medium speed for 3 minutes. Should be very light and creamy.
4. Beat in lemon extract, then add 1/3 of the flour mixture, still on medium speed. Beat in half of milk/egg mixture, then half of dry ingredients until well incorporated. Add rest of milk/egg mixture, beating until batter is homogeneous. Beat additional 2 minutes to make sure the cake is well aerated.
5. Bake for 30-35 minutes until cakes are well risen and springy. Toothpick should come out clean. Transfer to cooling racks and let sit for 5 minutes. Run knife around sides of cake, unmold and peel off layers of parchment paper. Invert and cool to room temperature right side up.
Directions for the Buttercream:
1. Put the sugar and egg whites in a mixer bowl or other large heatproof bowl. Fit the bowl over a pan of simmering water and whisk mixture constantly, keeping the mixture over the heat until it feels hot to the touch, about 3 minutes. The sugar should be dissolved and the mixture will look like shiny marshmallow cream. Remove bowl from heat.
2. Working with the whisk attachment or a hand mixer, beat the meringue on medium speed until it is cool, about 5 minutes.
3. Switch to the paddle attachment and add butter one stick at a time, beating until smooth. Once all the butter is in, beat the buttercream on medium-high speed until it is thick and very smooth, 6-10 minutes. During this time, the buttercream may curdle or separate -- just keep beating it will come together again. On medium speed, gradually beat in the lemon juice, waiting until each addition is absorbed before adding more, and then the vanilla. You should have a shiny, smooth, velvety, pristine white buttercream.
4. Press a piece of plastic against the surface of the buttercream and set aside briefly.
Directions for assembling the cake:
Using a sharp, serrated knife and a gentle sawing motion, slice each layer horizontally in half. Put one layer cut side up on a cardboard cake round or a cake plate protected by strips of wax or parchment paper (under the cake, so that your cake plate doesn't get icing on it; you can pull these out when you are finished decorating). Spread layer with 1/3 of the preserves. Cover the jam evenly with about 1/4 of the buttercream. Top with another layer, spread with preserves and buttercream and then do the same with a third layer (you'll have used all the jam and have buttercream left over). Place the last layer cut side down on top of the cake and use the remaining buttercream to decoratively frost the sides and top of the cake.

New London City Council votes to require police dog teams
New London - The City Council on Monday bucked a legal opinion by the city's law director and unanimously passed an ordinance that requires the police department to maintain four police dog teams.
The decision came following a string of comments from members of the public in support of increasing the size of the department's K-9 unit and against the wishes of Mayor Daryl Justin Finizio, who said the union has conducted a public media blitz on the matter instead of taking the request to contract negotiations.
He called the ordinance "an infringement on the charter authority of the mayor."
But many people on Monday spoke of the need for dogs not only to help track suspects and search buildings, but also to protect officers.
Dennis Downing, a Republican candidate for the council, warned those who voted against the ordinance that in the event of an officer's injury or death, "it's going to be on your heads."
Several dozen people bearing signs in support of the K-9 units stood outside City Hall waving signs prior to the meeting and applauded each time someone spoke in favor of increasing the size of the unit.
Union President Todd Lynch and his dog Jasper are the lone working K-9 team in the city. One bloodhound, Bessie, waits to be paired with an officer.
City Attorney Jeffrey T. Londregan, in a written opinion, said the ordinance violates a provision of the charter because it attempts to dictate how the police department should operate and what assets it must maintain.
Council President Michael Passero, however, said the ordinance was specifically drafted so as to not interfere in the administration of the police department. Council member Adam Sprecace agreed, saying, "I don't believe we're overstepping our bounds…"
"We do have a demonstrated need for it," Sprecace said. "When it's operated properly, I think it does everyone in the city a service."
"You're under no obligation to follow my legal advice," Londregan said Monday. "I can only advise you about my opinion."
Five of the seven council members spoke in favor of the ordinance, with council members Wade A. Hyslop Jr. and Donald Macrino speaking against.
Macrino said he wanted time to consider the need for more dogs and trusted the law director's ruling.
Hyslop said he still had concerns and some reservations about past actions of some officers and perhaps the need for sensitivity training. He also wondered about how representative the people at the meeting were compared to the city as a whole. Some people, he said, might be too intimidated to show up at a council meeting.
Neither, however, objected when it came time for a vote.
Finizio said that many officers and even Deputy Chief Peter Reichard did not agree the K-9 units are needed and some officers thought Tasers, more officers and things like vehicle maintenance all rank higher in terms of priority.
"There is zero need for this program in the city of New London," Finizio said.
Finizio said that cuts to the police department over the past two years approved by the council equaled $2.3 million and the city was better served by using the money to start the hiring process to make up for all of the officers who have left over the past several years.
"Why four? Why not three or two?" Finizio asked. "This ordinance is untimely. This ordinance is unnecessary."

TRAINING: A mix between jiu-jitsu training, Boxing / Thai pad work, sparring , wrestling, and strength & conditioning
When and why did you start training for fighting? I always loved the sport since I was a kid, and I started training jiu-jitsu under another former wrestler and BJJ black belt – Bill Scott – in 2005 after my college wrestling career ended. Everything just started from there and it's built up to where I am now.
What ranks and titles have you held? BJJ black belt, Ring of Combat middleweight champion.
Do you have any heroes? My younger brother Adam, and my HS wrestling coach Jay Nase. They're both very big inspirations to me and I wouldn't be where I am today without them.
What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? I'm excited to have the opportunity to now fight the best in the world, in the best organization in the world. It's where I always wanted to be since I started training MMA.
Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? BA in Psychology from Rider University
What was your job before you started fighting? I worked for my father in a family-owned Sheet Metal business. I want to thank my father because he played a big role in where I am now in my career because he allowed me to have flexible hours and certain days off to train for upcoming fights.
Accomplishments in amateur competition? NJ State place winner in HS, Three-time Division I national qualifier, 2x Division I conference champion, 100 Division I career wins, and Male Athlete of the Year in 2004 for Rider University in wrestling.

Cholesterol. You have heard it is "bad for you," but why? Where does it come from? Why is it a cause for concern?
What Is Cholesterol?
Cholesterol itself is not bad. It is a type of fat that has several important roles in the body, such as:
- Vital component of all cell membranes and tissue that protects nerve cells
- Backbone of many hormones including estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone
- Assists in creation of vitamin D and bile, a substance that helps digest fat
Problems occur when the levels of cholesterol in the blood get too high. This fat causes a build up of plaque in the blood vessels. Over time this build up increases the risk of cardiovascular disease such as coronary artery disease or stroke.
Where Does Cholesterol Come From?
Cholesterol comes from internal and external source. Your liver creates cholesterol, but you also take in cholesterol through your foods. Dietary cholesterol comes from animal products, such as meat, milk, cheese, and butter.
What Are the Types of Cholesterol?
Not all cholesterol is the same, there are several subtypes with important differences. Two more common subtypes include:
- Low Density Lipoproteins (LDLs)—LDLs make up most of the body's cholesterol. These particles, called "bad" cholesterol, are partially responsible for forming plaque along blood vessel walls. The more LDLs you have, the greater your risk of getting coronary artery disease—or a heart attack.
- High Density Lipoproteins (HDLs)—HDLs are known as "good" cholesterol. They are the protective counterparts to LDLs. HDLs contain a high proportion of protein, and their function is to scour the bloodstream, collecting excess cholesterol and transporting it back to the liver. The liver removes the cholesterol from the body. High levels of HDL cholesterol reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke.
Cholesterol and Heart Disease
Problems occur when the levels of cholesterol in the blood get too high.
Increased levels of cholesterol in the blood can contribute to atherosclerosis. This is the gradual build-up of plaque along the walls of your arteries. Over time, this build-up can narrow the artery and stiffen the arterial wall. If the plaque is severe enough, it can block blood flow. If this blockage occurs in the heart, it can cause a heart attack. In the brain, it can cause a stroke.
Part of the plaque can also break off and be released into the blood flow. Once released, clots can travel through the bloodstream through smaller and smaller vessels until they either dissolve or reach a point where they cannot squeeze through, causing a blockage.
High cholesterol is one of many risk factors for developing heart disease. Your actual risk of heart disease will depend on the combination of risk factors. Some risk factors like cholesterol level can be modified, while others like age can not be changed. The full list of risk factors for heart disease includes:
- Males
- People over age 55
- Family history of heart disease or high cholesterol
- High blood pressure
- Smoking
- Inactive lifestyle
- Obesity
- Type 2 diabetes
- High cholesterol
The more risk factors you have, the greater your chances of developing heart disease.
What Is Your Risk?
Cholesterol levels can be measured with a simple blood test. What is too high for you will depend on the number of heart disease risk factors that you have. The table below are recommended levels for people with no known heart disease risk factors.
If you have other risk factors for heart disease such as diabetes, your doctor may recommend lower target cholesterol levels. Discuss your risk factors and cholesterol goals with your doctor.
Ways to Lower Cholesterol
Fortunately there are some effective ways to lower and manage your cholesterol levels.
Lifestyle changes are often an effective way to lower cholesterol and reduce your risk of heart disease. This can include regular exercise, a healthy diet, not smoking, and maintaining a healthy weight. There are also cholesterol-lowering medications if you need them.
Make sure to have your cholesterol levels tested regularly (every 4-6 years) once you reach 20 years of age. If you are concerned about your cholesterol levels, talk to your doctor to create a plan that is right for you.
