[From 7-10 p.m. Tuesday]
Great to chat with (and finally meet in person) local power-pop songwriter Stephen Lawrenson. We had a good discussion of his new album, "Obscuriosity" and played tracks from it (as well as one Kinks cover). Here's the song list:
"Edge of the World"
"Your Karma"
"Small White House"
"2nd Time Around"
"Autumn Almanac" (Kinks cover)
"Thank You"
"Pale Yellow"
From there, it was all the music I could fit into 90 minutes, starting with an extended rock/pop set:
"Splendid Isolation" – Warren Zevon
"Get Off This" – Cracker
"Pressure Point" – the Zutons
"I Spy" and "Disco 2000" – Pulp
"Mr. Psycho" – Space
"Fine Print" – Silverclub
"Zombie Zoo" – Tom Petty
"Voodoo Walk" – Ray Davies
Then a twangy set:
"A) Enlightenment B) Endarkenment (Hint: There Is No C)" – Ray Wylie Hubbard
"Goin' Home" – Malcolm Holcombe
"Blood Sweat Tears" – Jess Klein
"What Kind of Girl Were You?" – KC Clifford
"What Side of Town" – Terence Martin
"A Song from the Subliminal Hymnal" – John Flynn
"Railroad Man" – The Stray Birds
Then a quick Dave Davies birthday tribute:
"Living on a Thin Line"/"Unfinished Business"
And then a song tied to my Mad Trivia Party questions that followed:
"Phobia" – the Kinks
Next Tuesday at 7 p.m., I'll air the interview I did this week with Canadian folk/jazz/swing trio My Sweet Patootie, who will perform Feb. 10 at Endicott Performing Arts Center. We'll also share never-before-heard tracks from their new album, "Good Day."

Four medical-marijuana dispensaries in communities south of Boston could open for business as early as this summer now that the state has approved 20 sites across 10 of the state's 14 counties. Former U.S. Rep. William Delahunt, head of the nonprofit that got three of the licenses, dismissed the notion that politics played a role in the selection process.
QUINCY – Four medical-marijuana dispensaries in communities south of Boston could open for business as early as this summer now that the Massachusetts Department of Public Health has approved 20 sites across 10 of the state's 14 counties.Quincy, Brockton, Plymouth and Taunton will host marijuana dispensaries and generate revenue for the municipalities. Across the state, an estimated 120,000 patients diagnosed with debilitating diseases such as cancer, multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's disease are expected to use dispensaries to obtain marijuana.
Selected from a field of 100 applicants, Medical Marijuana of Massachusetts Inc., was the sole nonprofit to secure three medical marijuana licenses – for locations in Plymouth, Taunton and Mashpee. The firm's president is former U.S. Rep. William Delahunt, who served in Congress from 1998 to 2012 and was Norfolk County district attorney for 21 years.
Walpole Deputy Police Chief John Carmichael, a member of the selection committee, said politics played no role in the process.
Delahunt dismissed the notion that he even wields political clout.
"There's been a lot of speculation about politics," he told The Patriot Ledger Friday afternoon, "but I've been out of government and elected office for three years. I don't have any say over any budgets in the public sector."
The Registered Marijuana Dispensary licenses are provisional, subject to local permits and inspections.
Under state regulations, the dispensaries will be required to pay a yearly registration fee of $50,000.
The state rejected applications for dispensaries in Stoughton and Bridgewater, and for a second one in Plymouth. Eight applicants – including one proposing a Holbrook dispensary – were invited to submit proposals in counties where no dispensaries have yet been approved.
Massachusetts is among 20 states that allow for medical marijuana use.
Many doctors are skeptical and caution would-be patients.
"Patients should remember that marijuana lacks the rigorous testing of drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration; that claims for its effectiveness have not been scientifically proven; and that it poses health risks of toxins and cognitive impairment, the last condition being especially risky for young patients," Dr. Ronald Dunlap, president of the Massachusetts Medical Society, said in a statement.
Delahunt said his firm's three dispensaries aim to open by July 1. The Plymouth dispensary, in a 46,000-square-foot warehouse in an industrial park on Collins Avenue, is banking on serving more than 4,200 patients in the first year and seeing total sales exceed $3.4 million.
The dispensary will pay Plymouth $20,000 in that first year and another $100,000 a year if there are revenue surpluses.
But Plymouth Selectmen Chairman Mathew Muratore said Friday he is most concerned about the possibility of marijuana getting into the wrong hands.
"Plymouth is no different from other communities that have problems with drugs," he said. "There are parents here who smoke dope with their teenaged kids. You get worried when there's more access to it. It's a huge concern."

Professor Marsha Garrison Elected President of the International Society of Family Law 8/23/2014 Professor Marsha Garrison, an expert on law and policy relating to families, children, and reproductive technology, was recently elected President of The International Society of Family Law at the organization's triennial World Conference. Professor Marsha Garrison on Marriage, Family, and Her New Book, Marriage at a Crossroads 3/1/2012 In light of the ongoing debate about marriage in the United States and recent Census statistics about marriage and family makeup, professor Marsha Garrison's new book, Marriage at a Crossroads, is particularly timely. Professor Marsha Garrison on No-Fault Divorce in The New York Times 6/17/2010 On June 15, the New York State Senate approved a bill that would allow divorces to be filed without naming which party is at fault, making New York one of the last states to implement a no-fault divorce system. Although some critics say it may raise the divorce rate, many attorneys welcome the new law. The current procedure, which requires concrete grounds for the divorce, often forces lawyers to wrench contrived explanations out of their clients, when the simple reason may be that they no longer like each other—a reason that does not currently stand in court. Professor Marsha Garrison, an expert on family law, agrees that the new law will eliminate the white lies common in trying to establish fault. She told The New York Times, "We want people to respect the law, not to engage in that kind of scamming." Professor Marsha Garrison Discusses Abduction in San Antonio 12/2/2009 A mother in Texas witnessed the kidnapping of her 10-year-old son in a strange case of what San Antonio attorney Miguel Ortiz calls "government-assisted kidnapping." Five years prior, the woman, Berenice Diaz, had been awarded full custody of her son, Jean Paul. On october 16 however, her husband convinced the court otherwise with misleading Mexican judicial documents. The next day, he arrived with a police escort to collect Jean Paul and they have not been since or heard from since. In an article from the Associated Press, Professor Marsha Garrison, who is also secretary-general of the International Society of Family Law, commented on the matter. "I'd guess that it's pretty uncommon for an abductor to trick a court," she said. "It seems odd that the officials handed over the child without a hearing on the matter at which the other parent was allowed to present evidence, but I don't know what kind of evidence was offered by the father."

Boulder has the Skip, the Jump, the Hop. Perhaps it needs an Ark.
A Hop rider last week was surprised to see another passenger bring a snake on the bus and even more surprised to learn that was just fine, since the owner identified the snake as a service animal.
"We follow the Americans with Disabilities Act to the letter of the law," said Mary Cobb, a spokeswoman for Via, the paratransit service that operates the Hop under a contract with the city. "Our policy on service animals and the ADA policy are the same. Our drivers can say, 'Is this a service animal?' If the answer is yes, then they can ask, 'What service does it perform?' That is all we can ask.
"If we go into anything else, we are questioning that person's disability, which may not be visible. A complaint of discrimination based on disability is a very serious matter."
The Regional Transportation District, which operates the other bus lines in Boulder and throughout the region, also allows service animals.
Its website does not define what constitutes a service animal, but says they may be removed if the animals become "violent, disruptive or pose a threat to other passengers."
The ADA itself limits service animals to "dogs that are individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities. ... Dogs whose sole function is to provide comfort or emotional support do not qualify as service animals under ADA."
However, Jennifer Edwards of the Animal Law Center in Arvada said there are other laws that govern housing and transportation that allow for a broader definition of "service" or "assistance" animals that can include almost any animal, provided the person has a note from his or her doctor.
"You can have snakes on a plane," Edwards said.
'No credibility whatsoever'
Yet David Favre, a professor who specializes in animal law at Michigan State University, said a snake strains the definition of a service animal.
"That has no credibility whatsoever, that a snake can perform a task, but that is just based on my 60 years on this Earth," he said.
But asked whether she knew of other therapy snakes, in addition to the therapy monkeys, cats and sugar gliders (a kind of possum) she has seen in her practice, Edwards said, "Oh yeah."
Daniel Greene, a man in Washington state, told the Seattle Times and People magazine that he has trained a 5-foot boa constrictor named Redrock to alert him to oncoming seizures with a gentle squeeze.
More often, Edwards said, snakes can provide emotional and psychological comfort.
"I can't speculate as to what this snake does for this man, what major life function it helps him for," she said of the bus rider, whom the Daily Camera was not able to identify.
University of Colorado professor Suranjan Ganguly, the rider who was bothered by the snake on the bus, said he has no objection to trained service animals and has students who bring service dogs to his classes. But he can't imagine a snake performing any kind of service.
"I was bothered by it," he said. "The bus happened to not have a lot of passengers, but imagine if the bus had lots of people on it. Someone could have panicked. Someone could have screamed."
Ganguly said he would like the Hop to stick to a more narrow definition of service animals.
'Not an open invitation'
Via's Cobb said animals are only allowed on Hop buses if they provide some service or therapy function.
"An outcome that we definitely want to avoid is the potential abuse some may use in defining the 'service animal' term and the limiting questions of the ADA as to what can be asked," she wrote in a follow-up email. "This is not an open invitation to bring any kind of animal on the Hop that one may want to, just to create a scene."
However, even if the ADA does not specifically protect snakes, Cobb said Via would not change its policy.
"So a snake to you and me might seem a little out there as a service animal," she said. "If the person says this is a trained service animal, we cannot question that. This creature is in their life for some sort of service or comfort. It could be an emotional comfort or protection comfort that that person may need."
Via does not track how often service animals ride the bus and how often they are animals other than dogs. Cobb said she was aware of at least one time a small pony rode a Hop bus in that capacity.
Much like RTD's policy, if any service animal is creating a disturbance or a safety issue, the driver can stop and ask the human passenger to leave with the animal, Cobb said.
There was no report that the snake caused any problems.
But Cobb said she herself would not ride a bus with a snake.
"This person, I guess thought, 'This is a bit much,'" Cobb said of the rider who complained. "I personally understand. If I got on the Hop bus and there was a snake, I would get off. That is my aversion."

The art design is such a mishmash that I couldn't possibly try to define it. There is lots of colored sketchwork with defining pencil lines, and then there are doors with bold, multicolored, geometric shapes that look like they came out of the circus. The Black Knight himself has limited detail, with limbs that look like stretched ovals that have been colored in haphazardly with black squiggly lines. The animations, on the other hand, are incredibly smooth. Your hero moves at just the right speed, with slow strides that give a believability to the bulky armor he's wearing. And then, of course, you do a dexterous double-jump that throws that believability right out the window.
The music and effects are just as jumbled as the visuals. With clown horns, pig sounds, opera singers, and a death song reminiscent of "Taps," you'll never know what you're going to hear next. My favorite effect is that of the armor, which consistently chinks along with a metallic clatter. Every scene has a different melody, hitting both major and minor chords, but usually (and deliberately, I'm sure) sounding out of tune.
Black Knight Sword may not be everyone's cup of tea, but don't be quick to assume its chaotic design choices make it seem like it was quickly thrown together without care. A few minor control issues aside, the gameplay is incredibly tight. It's not the most challenging platformer you'll ever play, but if you have any sense of curiosity, you'll want to keep playing just the see what the creative people at Grasshopper Manufacture and Digital Reality have come up with next.

Dropbox's success among consumers is clear; aside from Apple's iCloud, which benefits from the legions entrenched in its iOS ecosystem, Dropbox is the most widely used cloud platform, besting such formidable competitors as Google, Amazon and Microsoft. It's also become an asset within the enterprise, with the company claiming that its customers include more than two million businesses and 95% of the Fortune500.
Dropbox is clearly keen to develop its corporate role, an intention the company made clear Wednesday when it not only rebranded its Dropbox for Teams product, originally launched in fall 2011, as Dropbox for Business but also added a key perk to its Active Directory integration: single sign-on (SSO). Many large enterprises are still skeptical of the cloud, and often for good reason; there are risks, after all, in storing sensitive content on someone else's servers.
Nevertheless, Dropbox is more than a storage repository. It's also a collaboration vehicle that's suited to modern business environments, which include not only employees working on traditional PCs in the office but also growing numbers of remote, mobile or work-from-home staffers. Can the increasingly business-minded Dropbox improve productivity and organization at your workplace? Here are five considerations.
[ Are collaboration vendors starting to all sound alike? See 8 Ways To Judge Collaboration Technology Vendors. ]
1. Dropbox comes with robust security controls-- and blights on its record.
Dropbox suffered a hack last summer that not only exposed customer passwords to unscrupulous parties but also revealed some sloppy practiceswithin the company. Commentators treated Dropbox's enterprise prospects like a punching bag for several weeks following the incident, but the brand has still managed to survive the incident with its popularity intact.
Indeed, the company promised a renewed focus on security, and though some residual damagelinked to the hack surfaced earlier this year, Dropbox offers a variety of specs and features to help IT managers rest easier at night.
This list includes the option to require two-step verification before corporate data can be accessed, a feature expressly meant to address the password breach. To protect at-rest data, Dropbox applies AES-256 encryption, which is the same standard used in the financial industry. For data in transit, meanwhile, Dropbox uses secure socket layer (SSL) technology to establish a secure tunnel between the data center and an employee endpoint, a process broadly similar to what leading mobile device management (MDM) products use to stream SharePoint files and other corporate documents to smartphones.
The product additionally includes options for using third-party tools to apply more encryption, and because it is hosted by Amazon S3, Dropbox offers not only high reliability but also automatic data backups. For certain market segments, such as healthcare or government, these protections might not satisfy all regulations, let alone appease the skepticism harbored by cautious CIOs. In many cases, though, a business would have to host its own cloud in order to provide an environment that's significantly more fortified than Dropbox's.
2. Dropbox offers granular controls for IT admins.
Though industry regulations might disallow some companies from using Dropbox and similar services, other businesses shy away from the cloud because employees often use it without IT supervision. A worker might upload corporate files to the cloud, for example, because he or she intends to work with the documents later by synching them to a device at home. Such a worker's desire to be productive is arguably laudable, but few CIOs are willing to accept that productivity has to involve the posting of internal data to outside storage resources.
Dropbox seeks to appease such CIO anxieties with numerous user controls. These controls include not only Active Directory, which enables user-based access to given files, but also offer tools to monitor how corporate documents are accessed in the cloud. Administrators can review a given worker's recent Dropbox activity, for example, or which devices and third-party applications the worker has been using. Admins can also create reports based on this data.

The 2013 Brookfield Wrestling Invitational took place Saturday at the BHS gym through the course of the day. With 10 of the top teams in the State of Missouri in attendance, the competition level at the 34th Annual event was as stiff as ever.
The 2013 Brookfield Wrestling Invitational took place Saturday at the BHS gym through the course of the day. With 10 of the top teams in the State of Missouri in attendance, the competition level at the 34th Annual event was as stiff as ever.
A number of local wrestlers competed in the pools at the Invitational, and each of the results for these wrestlers is included below. The Invitational is seen as a final tune-up before District Wrestling, and the wrestlers at the event took the serious nature of the event to mean as much.
"The Brookfield Tournament has traditionally been one of the toughest Class One tournaments each year," said Brookfield Head Coach Ben Jackson. "Plus, you throw in several other quality wrestlers from the remaining seven teams, and you have a very competitive field."
"The guys wrestled well today," said Marceline Head Coach Josh Moore. "We've got some guys that are really coming along and striving to reach their potential, but we don't want to peak until districts so we've got a ways to go."
At 106 pounds in Pool A, Dalton Fisher of Marceline took first place. Fisher scored 17 of 20 possible points, with three pinfalls on the day with a 5-0 record. Travis McGowan of Marceline took second in Pool B with 12 points, one point back of the winner. McGowan had three pinfalls on the day with a 3-1 record.
At 113 pounds in Pool A, Matt Jackman of Brookfield did not place, but went 1-4 on the day. Jackman had an injury and defaulted three of these matches. Eric Thurman of Marceline did not place, going 0-4 and defaulting the final bout.
At 120 pounds in Pool A, Brookfield's Garrett Zahner took first place with 11 points. Zahner went 3-0 with a pinfall and a technical fall. Lane White of Marceline took first place in Pool B with 10 points. White went 3-0 with two pinfalls.
At 126 pounds in Pool A, Cody Niemeier of Brookfield took second place with 14 points. Niemeier went 4-1 with three pinfalls. Blaine Sportsman of Brookfield took third place in Pool B with eight points. Sportsman went 2-2 at the event with two pinfalls.
At 132 pounds in Pool A, Marceline's Austin Moudy took second with 10 points. Moudy went 4-1 with a pinfall at the event. In Pool B, Gage Maxwell of Brookfield did not place. Maxwell went 2-2 with two pinfalls.
At 138 pounds in Pool A, Anthony Cupp of Brookfield took second and Nate Florine of Marceline took third. Cupp had 12 points, and went 4-1 with two pinfalls. Florine had 10 points, and went 3-2 with two pinfalls. In Pool B, Lucas Burns of Brookfield did not place, and scored four points. Burns went 1-4 with a pinfall.

CHICAGO — Illinois will implement new rules to help ensure the due-process rights of juveniles in a settlement of a 2012 lawsuit that alleged hundreds of children on parole are illegally detained each year, according to recent federal court filings.
The lawsuit accused Illinois of employing what amounts to "kangaroo courts" to revoke juveniles' parole, saying children accused of violations rarely have access to lawyers and are left at the mercy of a system they don't understand.
To decide whether to rescind a juvenile's parole, many states rely on judges and courts. In Illinois, the Prisoner Review Board decides.
Citing what was the latest available state data, the 2-year-old suit said around 1,500 children in their teens or even younger were on parole in Illinois; out of 1,132 revocation hearings in 2011, parole was withdrawn 735 times, it said.
The new rules include the automatic appointment of state-funded lawyers for children and prompt, full, written explanations of a detainee's rights.
The lead plaintiff attorney on Monday heralded the deal.
"Thankfully, Illinois officials have recognized that assembly-line justice is bad for youth, for communities and for public safety," said Alexa Van Brunt, of Northwestern University's Roderick MacArthur Justice Center. It and the Uptown People's Law Center filed the suit.
A statement from the Illinois Department of Juvenile Justice, one of the named defendants, highlighted the commitment to ensuring all juveniles have access to a lawyer at the state's expense.
"This is an important step forward in helping us protect the rights of our youth during the parole revocation hearing process," said the statement, released Monday by department spokeswoman Alka Nayyar.
An attorney for the Prisoner Review Board, another of the defendants, echoed that. In an emailed statement, Ken Tupy said the agreement is "an important step toward protecting juvenile rights."
State officials don't admit wrongdoing as part of the settlement, which still must receive final approval from U.S. District Judge Andrea R. Wood. The next hearing is set for July 31.

Dzeko at the double as City beat United, Arsenal held
LONDON: A clinical double from Edin Dzeko helped Manchester City move second in the Premier League with a 3-0 win at Manchester United on Tuesday while Arsenal's title hopes all but evaporated in a 2-2 draw with Swansea City.
Manchester City took the lead after 43 seconds at Old Trafford and never looked back, exposing United's soft center almost at will with Dzeko and Yaya Toure netting in the second half to inflict another painful defeat on home boss David Moyes.
City, in ominous form after a 5-0 win over Fulham on Saturday, have moved into the slipstream of Chelsea and are three points behind the league leaders with two games in hand.
"It was an amazing game from the first to the last minute," striker Dzeko said on Sky Sports.
"We wanted to start playing our game early, to press high and get an early goal which we did.
"After that it was all about us. We could have had another goal (in the first 10 minutes) but we scored two more in the second half."
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger was, like United's Moyes, facing difficult questions after his side conceded a 90th-minute own goal from Mathieu Flamini to draw with struggling visitors Swansea on the back of a 6-0 thrashing at London rivals Chelsea.
It looked like Arsenal would claim all three points when second-half goals within a minute from Lukas Podolski and Olivier Giroud canceled out Wilfried Bony's opener.
Everton made it four wins in a row to maintain their own push for Europe as they beat Newcastle United 3-0 away with England hopeful Ross Barkley, Belgium striker Romelu Lukaku and Leon Osman all on target.
Arsenal stay fourth on 63 points, two behind third-placed Liverpool who host Sunderland on Wednesday. Everton are up a place to fifth, six points behind Arsenal with a game in hand in the race for a top-four finish and Champions League football
Manchester United should have approached the night buoyed by back-to-back wins, but instead began like a rabbit caught in the headlights of City's breathtaking early onslaught.
The second hand was still on its first lap of the clock when City took the lead, with Dzeko finishing into an open goal after a Samir Nasri shot hit the post.
United were in total disarray as City, who have now won five of the last six derbies, continued to pile forward, with David Silva finding pockets of space in between the hosts' midfield and backline to weave his magic and keep United chasing shadows.
United could not stem the flow of City's attacks and Dzeko's second 11 minutes after halftime put the match to bed, with the Bosnian easily shaking off his marker Rio Ferdinand to steer a corner from the right in at the near post.
The coup de grace was administered by Toure in stoppage time when he drilled a low shot into the bottom corner.
"I think we have played a very good side, playing at the sort of level we are aspiring to," Moyes said after his second straight 3-0 home league loss following a defeat by Liverpool.
"We need to come up a couple of levels ourselves because at the moment we are not there."
After the embarrassment of Saturday's thrashing by Chelsea, the onus was on Arsenal to show they were still in the title race and were not going to be dragged into a dogfight for a top-four finish.
While the north London side have struggled against their top-four rivals, they have proved more than capable of dispatching the league's lesser lights.
Swansea, however, were up for a scrap and scented blood, taking the lead after 11 minutes when Bony directed a precise header into the net for his 11th league goal of the season.
The Swansea threat seemed to have passed when Podolski leveled in the 73rd minute with a volley and Giroud put the hosts ahead soon after by poking home from close range.
But with the clock ticking down calamity struck and Flamini, the player Wenger was criticized for not starting against Chelsea, deflected the ball inadvertently into his own net.
"You wonder how we could draw a game like that, they had nothing and in the end it was 2-2," a bemused Wenger said.
"At 2-1 we became too conservative because of what happened on Saturday and instead of continuing to attack it worries us more to keep the score."
Arsenal's slip means Everton might fancy their chances of chasing them down and finishing in the Champions League places.
They opened the scoring at St James' Park when Barkley was allowed to run unchallenged from inside his own half before firing past Tim Krul into the top corner after 22 minutes.
They doubled the lead when Gerard Deulofeu picked out Lukaku to poke the ball home seven minutes after halftime and Osman then beat Krul at his near post to make it 3-0 late on.

The family of Dr. Hiram Lasher—a pioneer in poultry vaccine research, development, and commercialization, and a generous benefactor of the University of Delaware—has announced the establishment of the Hiram Lasher Fellowship Award at the University of Delaware.
"We are honored that Dr. Lasher's family has established the Hiram Lasher Fellowship award to benefit graduate students pursuing studies in poultry health at UD," says Jack Gelb, professor and chair of animal and food sciences, and the director of the Avian Biosciences Center at UD. "Dr. Lasher directly influenced many, many people from all walks of life directly through his support, his knowledge and generosity. It is fitting that Dr. Lasher's family has established this fellowship so that his legacy can live on."
The family's announcement of the scholarship is available on Egg-cite.com.
Dr. Lasher, 92, died Oct. 7 after a short illness. In 1997, the University dedicated the Lasher Laboratory in Dr. Lasher's honor in Georgetown, Del. The laboratory, formerly owned by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, was transferred to UD when the USDA decided to close it. A $250,000 gift from Dr. Lasher allowed the University to update and renovate the lab.
In 2008, Dr. Lasher was awarded the University of Delaware Medal of Distinction. Robin Morgan, then dean of the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, read a citation that noted his importance to the poultry industry worldwide and also noted his extraordinary contributions in Delaware to education, youth development and public service. "Hiram Lasher is a scientist, businessman, public servant, educational advocate and philanthropist who contributed significantly to the lives of many Delawareans.," she said.
Donations to the Hiram Lasher Fellowship Award should be directed to the attention of Robert Rudd, University of Delaware, Office of University Development, 83 E Main St., Newark, DE 19716-0701 with a notation that the donation is to be assigned to the Lasher Fellowship. Alternatively, donations may be made online on the University of Delaware's Giving webpage. Please enter "Lasher Fellowship" in the "Other" box on the web form.

When the Samsung Galaxy S II was unveiled in late August, Samsung announced that the phone would make its way to European, Asian and Middle Eastern markets in October with US availability coming "later in 2012." Today we're hearing that "later in 2012″ may actually be a little sooner than we originally expected. According to the latest rumor, AT&T will start selling the Samsung Galaxy Note II on October 21st.
AT&T has yet to make the date official and we're still hoping the Samsung Galaxy S II will also be making an appearance on Verizon and other US carriers. Since the original Note was such a huge success, we expect the Note II will be one of the most popular Android devices during this year's holiday season. The only real complaint we've heard about the device is that it may be a tad too large.
How many of you are tempted to trade in your phone and tablet for a single 5.5-inch device?

At the event, CEO Jeff Bezos unveiled the company's new 7-inch Android tablet, the Kindle Fire, but he also unveiled a new line of E-Ink Kindles. The original keyboarded Kindle will continue to be sold, but Amazon will now sell a non-touch, non-keyboard Kindle and a Kindle Touch with an infrared touch sensor, which works pretty well. We weren't allowed to use the e-reader ourselves, but we were able to hold it and snap some photos up close and get live demonstrations of the unit. We'll have full impressions and some video up in the coming hours, but for now check out a few close up photos of working units and we've included a good portion of the presentation that Bezos made to unveil the new e-reader. Check it out. If you have any questions (and we actually know the answers), we'll be happy to field them in the comments area.

Home sales made to international buyers rose about 35% for the year ending March 2014, as people took advantage of favorable exchange rates and affordable prices, according to a report released by the National Association of Realtors on Tuesday.
Total sales to foreign buyers reached an estimated $92.2 billion from April 2013 through March 2014, up from $68.2 billion the previous year, according to NAR's 2014 Profile of International Home Buying Activity report. That's about 7% of the total U.S. existing home sales for the period.
Four states — Florida, California, Arizona and Texas — accounted for more than half of the total reported purchases to international buyers, the report found. Twenty-three percent of foreign purchases were in Florida. The top five cities searched by international buyers: Los Angeles, Miami, Las Vegas, Orlando and New York, according to data from Realtor.com.
Buyers from Canada made the largest share of purchases (19%), while buyers from China led in dollar volume, buying up $22 billion in property (with an average price of $590,826). Other common places where international buyers hailed from included Mexico, India and the United Kingdom.
The study is based on a survey of 3,547 NAR members. Those who participated submitted sales prices and quantities sold, which helped researchers make their estimations, said Jed Smith, managing director of quantitative research for the group and one of the study's co-authors. Both resident and non-resident foreigners are counted as international buyers.
"They see the U.S. as a place of economic stability, they see value in our market and view it as a positive place to invest their dollars," said Danny Hertzberg, sales associate with The Jills Coldwell Banker, based in Miami. About 70% of his buyers are international, coming primarily from Mexico, Brazil, Venezuela and Argentina, he said. "In many places, it's a hedge against their currency."
While international buyers have been increasing over the past few years, Hertzberg has noticed a significant surge in his market during the last 12 months — reflective of the national report.
"Some people are buying trophy properties, some are modest second homes and some people are buying for investment purchases," said Smith, from NAR. The median price for a home purchase to an international buyer: $268,284, according to the report.
Other buyers have children attending school in the U.S. and seek a place for them to stay, said Wei Min Tan, a real-estate agent with Rutenberg Realty in New York City. While shocking headlines of multimillion-dollar property sales to foreign investors often make a splash in the media, Tan said there are many foreign buyers looking for more modestly priced homes.
And some are looking for downright bargains.
More of RealtyTrac's subscribers are coming from foreign countries, according to the company. RealtyTrac provides listings for all types of properties, including non-distressed homes as well as short sales, auctions and foreclosures. Foreign subscriber activity increased 125% between 2009 and 2013, with the biggest increases coming from the United Arab Emirates, Switzerland and China, said spokeswoman Jennifer von Pohlmann. Foreign subscribers to RealtyTrac are most prevalent in Canada, followed by the United Kingdom, Australia, China and Mexico.
Still, the influx of foreign buyers has at least one significant effect on domestic buyers.
"A lot of the foreign buyers [make sales in] all cash," Tan said. "They are driving up the prices that way. They are getting the edge in terms of the negotiation."
Indeed, nearly 60% of reported international transactions within the past year were all cash, compared with one-third of domestic purchases, according to the NAR report.
Often, locals will offer the same amount as a foreign buyer — or more, Hertzberg said. But most domestic buyers need a mortgage in order to buy the home, while many foreign buyers don't. An all-cash offer is often preferable to the seller because they are more certain to close.

Lambert: We were beaten up
Paul Lambert offered no excuses after his young Aston Villa side
were humbled in an 8-0 thrashing at Chelsea.
Lambert selected the same side which stunned Liverpool 3-1 at
Anfield, but once Fernando Torres scored inside three minutes it
was clear there would be no repeat of that result.
In the end Villa were slightly fortunate to escape without
shipping double figures as Brad Guzan made several fine saves –
including one to keep out Lucas Piazon's penalty.
Lambert told the club website: "Everything that could go wrong
went wrong. We have been on a really good run but we got beaten up
today by a really good side. We were second best.
"We never turned up. We have been beaten pretty heavily. But we
were second best all over In the second half it could have been
more to be perfectly honest. All credit to Chelsea, they beat us
Tottenham visit Villa Park on boxing Day, and Lambert expects an
immediate response.
He said: "You always learn when you win, lose or draw. That will
be a wake-up call for us, that. Things have been going really fine
for us. It was only Manchester United, Man City and Chelsea now who
have turned us over. We will bounce back!
"We only have two days to mull over it but we have to go again
against Tottenham on Wednesday. I am sure whoever plays on
Wednesday will atone for that."

First Place at the Women's Atlantic Coast Championship
Throggs Neck, N.Y. – After sailing consistently all season and maintaining its No. 1 national ranking, the Yale women's sailing team iced the cake this weekend at the Women's Atlantic Coast Championship. The Bulldogs came out strong on Saturday and were battling for the lead early. Going into Sunday they sat second overall, and from then on they sailed to victory.
The competition did not go down without a fight though. Yale claimed the Atlantic coast title by winning a tie-breaker over the University of Rhode Island Rams while the Dartmouth Big Green finished third, only one point behind. Such close final standings attest to the stiff competition that was present at this fall season's closing championship.
Just as it has been all season, the Bulldogs' success this weekend was the result of a full team effort. All eight Yale sailors that traveled with the team got to sail in the event, despite there only being two divisions. It was agreed prior to the start of racing that the Bulldogs' top four skippers would split time in their divisions between the two days.
In A division, junior Claire Dennis sailed in the eight races that were completed on Saturday and then sophomore Marlena Fauer took over on Sunday to finish the job. Freshman Kate Gaumond sailed with Dennis for most of Saturday while sophomore Eugenia Custo Greig sailed with Fauer. The combined scores of the two crew combinations earned the Bulldogs second place overall in A division.
In B division, sophomore Emily Billing skippered the first eight races and then freshman Morgan Kiss took the helm on Sunday. Sophomore crew Amanda Salvesen sailed all but the last two races of the regatta, for which sophomore Anna Han took her place. These four Bulldogs' scores added up to a fourth-place overall finish in B division.
It's not often that teams are able to change their entire line-up from one day to the next and still win a major championship regatta. Yale's success in doing this is an unquestionable testament to its depth and its confidence in each of its members.
Now that the Atlantic Coast Championship is set and done, the Bulldogs have officially entered their offseason. The team will venture out to its practice venue for one last time on Wednesday in order to pull out the docks and winterize the yacht club. After that, the only sailing related responsibility its team members will have to think about for three months is staying physically fit. For the athletes this means a significant amount of more free time in which they will be able to focus on the end of the semester academically, as well as be able to better take advantage of other opportunities on campus. However, you can be sure that, come late February, the women's sailing team will be yearning to return to the water. The strong fall season bodes exceptionally well for the spring season to come.

This Christmas will not be the best for Nakia Cantu, 37, who was jailed on a DUI conviction last summer, but he said he's cheered by the idea that some children may have a better holiday after receiving bikes that he fixed for them.
This Christmas will not be the best for Nakia Cantu, 37, who was jailed on a DUI conviction last summer, but he said he's cheered by the idea that some children may have a better holiday after receiving bikes that he fixed for them.
"It passes the time," Cantu said of the repairs and tune-ups he has done to about 45 bikes so far for the Lafourche Sheriff's Office's annual Christmas Bike Giveaway. "It gives you something to do that's needed, and you're going to make someone else's Christmas a little better."
The Sheriff's Office is seeking donations of new or used bikes, the latter "to be spruced up a bit" and given to children who might otherwise go without, spokesman Deputy Brennan Matherne said. The office has gotten about 200 donated bikes so far.
Cantu, who was sentenced to a year in jail, works through the Sheriff's Office's trusty program, usually reserved for well-behaved inmates jailed for non-violent crimes. He came to the program in July, and he has been working on bikes since he arrived, he said.
Cantu said he works a shift at the South Lafourche Leonard Miller Jr. Airport from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. six days a week, then works on the bikes during his down time.
Cantu, a New Orleans native and former Raceland resident, is a self-proclaimed "avid biker" and has raced in triathlons in New Orleans and Raceland.
When assessing how much work a bike needs, Cantu said he checks to see if parts are missing or if brakes are needed. He sands off the rust with steel wool. He paints the frames. He patches and inflates the tires.
When a bike is finished, "it looks just about brand new," he said
Since it is close to Christmas, deputies are now asking that the bikes people donate "be either new or in need of only minor repairs so that they can be ready in time for delivery," Matherne said.
Deputies will distribute the bikes as Christmas gifts later this month, Matherne said.
Anyone can suggest a bike recipient by calling 632-5843 and providing the child's name, gender, age, address and phone number. The bikes are delivered to families' houses.
The demand is already high this year, Matherne said, so the office has asked that each family be limited to one or two bicycles.
Capt. Dean Savoie manages the giveaway program in Galliano.
"We truly appreciate the generosity shown by our citizens through this program," Savoie said. "We accept each donation knowing it will bring a huge smile to one child's face a few weeks later."
Anyone interested in donating bikes can drop them off at any Sheriff's Office site. A list is available online at www.lpso.net/contact.htm.
Deputies and explorers, or student volunteers, delivered 232 bikes last year throughout Lafourche, Matherne said. More than 2,800 bicycles have been distributed since the program began in 1996.
People are also welcome to donate money to help the Sheriff's Office buy new bikes, Matherne said. Checks should be made out to the Lafourche Deputies Association and the words "bike giveaway" should be written in the memo line.
The donation is tax deductible.

After Samsung's recent court victory over Apple, the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is now back on sale in Australia. Samsung took the opportunity to celebrate the occasion with a new series of ads in the Australian paper The Sun-Herald this weekend. Thanks to an Australian Twitter user Martin Anugle (@maungle), we were able to catch a glimpse of the ad which reads, "The Tablet Apple Tried to Stop."
This new campaign along with The Next Big Thing ad spots on TV have show have shown Samsung's willingness to take on Apple. In a way, it sort of reminds me how Apple attacked Microsoft with their "I'm a Mac, I'm a PC" ads from several years ago.
Samsung Australia's vice president of telecommunications, Tyler McGee, recently said that Apple's courtroom battles had made the Galaxy Tab 10.1 a "household name" thanks to all the media attention it received.
What do you think of the new tougher Samsung? Do you like to see them go negative on Apple in their marketing message?

Milan moves to reinvent fashion week
MILAN (AP) — Burberry has packed up for London, abandoning Milan after a decade of menswear fealty. Giorgio Armani has scolded Italian designers who regularly show in other fashion capitals. And Donatella Versace even called for a fashion summit in a bid for unity.
Concern that Milan is losing prestige to London, Paris and New York is starting to crack the composure of the city's usually reserved fashion world.
The Italian National Fashion Chamber has been moved to action, announcing a reorganization this spring and making Prada's outspoken CEO Patrizio Bertelli the chamber's No. 2 with the goal of revitalizing Milan fashion.
Bertelli's first act: a letter to restaurants to stay open late during this week's menswear fashion previews that start Saturday. That may seem a small step, but consider that the fashion world spent 120 million euros ($157 million) in Milan over four fashion weeks in 2009, according to Bain & Company figures, a slow year as the key U.S. market was mired in crisis at the time.
Milan may have built-in fashion pedigree, but it does not have the same inherent tourist appeal as the other fashion capitals, which is reflected in their luxury sales that eclipse Milan's €4.5 billion ($5.9 billion) in 2012. New York was four times that, Paris double and London more than one-third higher, according to Bain.
As for the source of the malaise, the economic crisis that has now stalled over Italy has zapped resources from the fashion houses, local government that might otherwise provide a boost and the world of fashion media and fashion buyers that feed the system.
Fashion insiders and analysts say Milan doesn't do as much as other fashion cities to integrate cultural and artistic events and promote new designers to create buzz.
"For sure, some cities have invested more in creating a very powerful setting," said Claudia D'Arpizio, a Bain partner who analyzes the luxury goods market. "I think that is what the new fashion chamber is going to do, to make Milan very visible."
More recently, designer spats, not cooperation, have been the norm. The summit called by Versace apparently never took place, pre-empted by the fashion chamber's own reorganization.
Armani has put pressure on Italian designers to regularly show their collections in Milan, and not in other fashion capitals, reportedly making their return a condition for his participation on the policy-setting fashion chamber board.
The remarks targeted Prada's second line, Miu Miu, which shows in Paris, along with Valentino's ready-to-wear and couture collections.
Armani pointed out that he has done his part, long taking the last major fashion week slot at the chamber's request to keep the fashion crowd from rushing off to Paris. "Of course, this over time has brought various problems, such as, in some cases, the absence of some of the most important writers," Armani was quoted by Corriere della Sera as saying recently.
He also debunked any logistical difficulties that other fashion houses might have showing two lines in a single week, pointing out that he does it with the Emporio Armani and Giorgio Armani collections, four times a year.
The fashion chamber's long-time president Mario Boselli expressed confidence that the issue would be resolved and Armani would join the board.
"We are confident that with the relaunch of Milan, and some brands will come home," Boselli said in an interview.
He is not promising quick fixes to what are very complex problems, and won't give hints of what's to come, but says some changes will be in place by the September preview shows.
As an early sign of progress, Boselli points out that there will be 78 designers showcased at this week's menswear shows — more than in previous editions — and they include runway shows by four new names: two Italians, a German and a Chinese. Armani has opened up his theater to one of them, Andrea Pompilio.
Boselli also was understanding of the Prada Group's decision to show Miu Miu in Paris, especially at a time when many fashion houses, from Versace to Dolce&Gabbana, have abandoned their second lines. In Milan, Miu Miu risks being overshadowed by Prada. "By going to Paris, it's as if there were two first lines, each with its own identity," he said.
As for Burberry's decision to decamp, Boselli accepts it as part of the business. But he takes it as a victory for Milan that British designer Vivienne Westwood did not follow, despite apparent attempts to woo her.
"The people who decide to stay in Milan, do so because they believe in Milan, period," Boselli said.

Instead, the Manchester United defender said the term was slang for "someone who is being fake".
Ferdinand laughingly reacted on Twitter last night after one person sent a tweet to him accusing Cole, who was a defence witness in the John Terry racism trial, of being a "choc ice".
The term is commonly understood to mean "black on the outside, white on the inside".
The person wrote: "Looks like Ashley Cole's going to be their choc ice. Then again he's always been a sell out. Shame on him."
Ferdinand replied: "I hear you fella!
"Choc ice is classic! hahahahahahha!!"
Users began discussing the comments and reacting to them and Ferdinand wrote: "And if I want to laugh at something someone tweets....I will! Hahahahaha! Now stop getting ya knickers in a twist!"
Ferdinand's initial comment has now been deleted from his Twitter account, but the 33-year-old did speak about the issue this morning.
He tweeted: "What I said yesterday is not a racist term. Its a type of slang/term used by many for someone who is being fake. So there."
Last night's comments reignited the Terry racism row, a day after the Chelsea defender was cleared of a racially aggravated public order offence at Westminster Magistrates' Court.
It was alleged that Terry had maliciously called Rio's brother Anton - a QPR defender - a "f****** black c***" during a match on October 23 last year.
Cole, 31, had told the trial that Terry, his Stamford Bridge captain and friend, was not racist.
Cole last night moved to calm the situation down regarding the comments made on Twitter and issued a statement through his lawyers.
It said: "Ashley Cole has been made aware of the discussion following comments appearing on Twitter and wishes to make it clear that he and Rio Ferdinand are good friends and Ashley has no intention of making any sort of complaint.
"Ashley appreciates that Tweeting is so quick it often results in off-hand and stray comments."

Recently, information has circulated about two possible cases of H1N1 (commonly known as swine flu) on the campus of Andrews University. Health professionals at University Medical Specialties say they have recently seen patients experiencing flu-like symptoms. In these cases, an in-office test can determine whether or not a patient has influenza, but it cannot determine whether or not it is H1N1. Since H1N1 has already been confirmed in the area, the Berrien County Health Department is no longer accepting samples for testing. According to Dr. Daniel Reichert of University Medical Specialties, if a patient tests positive for the flu, it can be assumed that it is either common seasonal flu or H1N1. In either case, says Reichert, "There is no difference in the symptoms or the appropriate treatment approach."
As we enter the flu season, faculty, staff and students are encouraged to review the following information regarding flu symptoms, treatment, self-quarantine, when needed, and self-reporting guidelines.
Symptoms of H1N1 are similar to the symptoms of common seasonal flu including fever (greater than 100 degrees), cough, sore throat, body aches, headache, chills and fatigue. Diarrhea and vomiting are also possible symptoms. Any student, faculty or staff member experiencing a fever over 100 degrees along with other flu-like symptoms is strongly encouraged to visit a medical health professional and to self-quarantine.
Treatment and Self-Quarantine
Treatment for H1N1 or any common seasonal flu is the same. If you are sick with any flu-like symptoms, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends staying home for at least 24 hours after your fever is gone, except to get medical care. Your fever should be gone without the use of fever-reducing medicine.
Residence hall students are instructed to report any illness to their residence hall dean. Community students are instructed to report illness to the Student Life office. Faculty and staff are instructed to report to their supervisor.
How the Flu Spreads
Flu is caused by viruses that infect the nose, throat and lungs. The flu and colds usually spread from person to person when an infected person coughs or sneezes.
Prevent the Spread of Germs
As with any flu season, you can help prevent the spread of germs in general by following these simple, commonsense recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention:
• Cover your nose and mouth—ideally with a tissue—when you cough or sneeze.
• Wash your hands frequently with soap and water.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth.
• Avoid close contact with people who are ill.
• If you get sick, stay home from work or school and limit contact with others to keep from infecting them.

Head Blown Off While Out Hunting.
The Accidental Discharge of a Gun Brought About the Death of Jack Dillon.
Under the date of Dec. 11th, the following telegram was received from Richmond by the Chronicle:
Jack Dillon of San Francisco, and formerly of Richmond, was killed today while hunting as a result of the accidental discharge of his gun. When found he lay in the bottom of his boat, his head partly blown off, and his double-barreled shot-gun lying by his side with one barrel discharged.
Dillon has been in the habit of going to the Sobrante ranches for a day's outing and to shoot ducks on the game preserves held by farmers of the district. He and his wife went from San Francisco to a ranch last night. This morning Dillon went to the preserves at an early hour and was to have returned to the ranchhouse at 9 o'clock. He did not return, and after a time his friends became anxious and instituted a search for him.
He was located after a short hunt but was dead when found. It is not known just when the accident happened, as he was alone, and there were no other hunters in the vicinity. Coroner Abbott was notified at once and has taken charge of the body, which has been brought to Richmond and where an inquest will be held tomorrow.
Dillon was employed at San Francisco and resided there, but was a short time ago a resident of Richmond. His brother, Frank Dillon, lives at Richmond and is an employe of the Standard Oil Company in the offices here.
John's father died on 24 November 1908, about 11 months later. On 6 September 1913, John L's brother, Carl C Dillon became the local Edgar Co, Illinois guardian for John's children: Nola Dillon, age 10 yrs and Lawrence Dillon, aged 8 years. In a 1918 probate document, Nola Dillon and Lawrence Dillon are listed as residents of Walnut Creek in Contra Costa Co, California.
Located in the probate file at the Edgar Co, Illinois courthouse, were receipts of moneys received. One, not dated, was for $25.00 from Carl C Dillon, guardian for Nola and Lawrence, to be used for necessities of above minors and was signed by Louise Dillon.
Another dated February 26, 1914 was signed by Mrs. J. L. Dillon.
The receipt dated 1928, from C C Dillon, guardian of Lawrence Dillon for $107.66 in full, was signed by Lawrence W. Dillon.

The republic of Panama, whose canal, in effect, put San Diego on the map a century ago, is in talks with local leaders to play a role in the 2015 Balboa Park centennial celebration.
A delegation returned about two weeks ago after meeting with tourism and canal leaders and promised to prepare a proposal by December for Panama to consider. Ideas include a pavilion or exhibits that explore the canal's history and its present expansion, the country's tourist attractions and growing presence of American retirees.
The initiative was revealed publicly for the first time Tuesday at the Friends of Balboa Park annual awards banquet by Iris Engstrand, the University of San Diego history professor who was on the delegation.
"They're thinking about it," she said of the Panamanians' commitment. "They want to build up their tourism."
Besides Engstrand, the delegation included Ben Clay, co-chairman of the 2015 event; Mike McDowell, CEO of the event; Jeff Kirsch, executive director of the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center that is working up an IMAX movie on the canal; and Robert Price, who is developing stores in Panama and arranged for the meetings.
Engstrand is completing a book on Price's father Sol, who founded Price Club — now part of the Costco discount chain — and a consultant to Kirsch's movie project.
Clay said tourism and canal authority officials asked the San Diegans to submit a proposal in December and they would consider it.
"What they really want to do is talk about tourism, their place in Latin America crossroads between North and South America," Clay said. "They have new canal locks and would like to tell their story. Nobody made any commitments, but they were very gracious and said get a proposal together."
The opening of the Panama Canal in 1914 prompted San Diego to mount the Panama-California Exposition in Balboa Park in 1915-16 as a way to promote San Diego as the first American port of call for ships coming from the south.
A scale model of the canal was on display in 1915 and there were other San Diego-Panama connections made then and over the years.
The canal, originally built by the U.S. at a cost of about $375 million (equivalent of more than $8 billion today.) Panama took full control in 1999 and is currently spending $1 billion to modernize, deepen and widen it.
Companies worldwide are hoping the expansion will accommodate bigger ships and save time in shipping goods from Asia to the U.S. and Europe. California ports, including Los Angeles-Long Beach and San Diego, worry that they might lose business if shippers bypass the West Coast and take their goods through the canal to Gulf of Mexico and East Coast ports.
Clay said besides Panama, the 2015 planning committee expects to reach out to other countries to participate in the centennial event, whose theme was recently unveiled as "Edge2015" — a message that San Diego and its institutions and businesses are cutting edge and edgy.
"Our next opportunity will be sitting down with folks in Mexico to figure out with them what they'd like to do," Clay said.
Once the new Mexican government takes office, Clay said San Diego will approach officials after the first of the year and explore options.
In 1915, San Diego's exposition started out as a regional fair with San Francisco pulling in foreign participation at its much larger event the same year. In 1916 San Diego brought in many of the San Francisco exhibits, including those that could not return to Europe, then embroiled in World War I.

Im a programer for quite sometime now.. and I really need help with my next assignment, I need to.. Wait for it.. make a program that gets numbers and traslates it to letters with a secret principle that only I should know.
the numbers are aligned not at all randomly and it's basicly a "code language" to communicate privatly.
So in short, my question is how can I tell a program in C++, to see lots of numbers, know the principle and translate it to letters and words.
I'll give an example:

|Need protein in a hurry? Tempeh Triangles to the rescue.
Enter tempeh. This versatile protein powerhouse is one of the less-processed soy products. I love its can-do texture: you can crumble it into stews or chilis, slice it and cook it as a tempeh burger, or cut it into squares for casseroles or stir fries. The sky's pretty much the limit.
One thing about tempeh is that you really need to steam it for 10 minutes before cooking it. Steaming removes any bitter residue and also primes the tempeh to graciously receive whatever sauce you are going to douse it with.
Yesterday, I was craving tempeh, but after having completed a 13-mile run and 2-mile walk back home from the trail, I needed a recipe that didn't strain my brain or take too long. I decided to make an old standby of mine, Saucy Tempeh Triangles. This recipes falls in the "pathetically easy" category. In fact, it's not really even a recipe; it's more like directions.
You can use any sauce you like it this recipe. When I am too tired to cook, I rely on store-bought Trader Joe's Kansas City Barbecue Sauce. Other tasty sauce ideas include:
- Any kind of pesto
- Any kind of hot sauce, if you are so inclined
- Marinara sauce
- Romesco sauce
- Curry sauce
|Tempeh Triangles, smothered in BBQ sauce and ready for baking.
Saucy Tempeh Triangles
- 1 8-ounce packet of tempeh
- 1 cup of your favorite sauce
- Salt, pepper or other herbs, optional
Steam your tempeh: Cut the tempeh into about 16 triangles [or squares, whatever shape floats your boat]. Fill a saucepan with about 1 inch of water and bring to a boil. Place the tempeh pieces in the steamer, then in the pan. Cover, reduce heat to simmer and steam for about 10 minutes.
Place the steamed tempeh pieces in a shallow dish, drown in your sauce of choice and marinate for at least one hour or overnight. [This is a great recipe to throw together before you leave for work.]
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bake tempeh for 10 minutes, then remove, flip all pieces and ensure that all areas are covered with sauce, and then bake for 10-15 minutes more.
