Sour Cream Coffee Cake with toasted Pecan Filling
The long recipe may make this cake seem difficult to make, but it's really not. It is however, a little time-consuming, but well worth it! It will keep at room temperature, well-wrapped or under a cake dome for up to 5 days.
Ingredients: (serves 16)
For the streusel topping:
2 oz/4 tbsp unsalted butter
3 oz/ 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup toasted pecans, coarsely chopped
2 tbsp granulated sugar
2 tbsp light brown sugar
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
For the filling:
1 cup toasted pecans
3 tbsp granulated sugar
3 tbsp light brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp cocoa powder
For the cake:
3 cups sifted cake flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
10 oz/ 1 1/4 cup unsalted butter, slightly softened
1 2/3 cups superfine/caster sugar
4 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
16 oz/ 2 cups sour cream
Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 350 F/ 180 C. Generously butter a 10 inch tube pan with a removable bottom.
Make the topping:
In a 2-quart saucepan, heat the butter over a medium heat until almost melted. Remove from the heat and cool to tepid. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, pecans, both sugars, cinnamon, baking powder and salt and stir with a fork. Add the flour mixture to the butter and stir until evenly moistened and crumbly.
Make the filling:
In a food processor, pulse the pecans, both sugars, cinnamon and cocoa 4-6 times to combine and chop the pecans.
Make the cake:
In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, soda and salt. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes. Add the sugar slowly, beating until combined. Scrape the bowl. Beat in the eggs one at a time, blending each one completely before adding the next. Scrape the bowl and blend in the vanilla. On low speed, alternate adding the dry ingredients and the sour cream, adding the flour in four parts and the sour cream in three, beginning and ending with the flour and scraping the bowl as needed.
To layer and marble the batter and filling:
Spoon 2 generous cups of the batter into the prepared pan. Smooth with the back of a soupspoon, spreading the batter to the side of the pan first and then to the center. Sprinkle about 1/2 cup of the filling evenly over the batter. Cover the filling with about 2 cups of batter, dropping dollops around the pan and smoothing with the spoon. Sprinkle another 1/2 cup filling evenly over the batter and cover with 2 more cups batter. Layer on the remaining filling and then the remaining batter. (you should have four layers of batter and three of filling)
Insert a table knife 1 inch from the side of the pan straight into the batter going almost to the bottom. Run the knife around the pan two times, without lifting up the blade, spacing the two circles about 1 inch apart. Smooth the top with the back of the soupspoon.
To top and bake the cake:
Take a handful of the streusel crumbs and squeeze firmly to form a large mass. break up the mass into smaller clumps, distributing the streusel evenly over the batter. Repeat with the remaining streusel. Press the streusel lightly into the surface of the cake.
Bake until the top of the cake is golden brown, the sides are beginning to pull away from the pan, and a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, 70-75 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool for at least an hour before removing from the pan.

Hi EmmaReplyDelete
Do I have to use cake flour for this recipe, I cant seem to find it easily in my country (NZ). Can I substitute with standard flour? We have other flours lol but I ddnt want to seem like a crazy person and list them all.
Hello Rach, cake flour isn't exactly readily available here either, so I would always use all-purpose and it works out just fine. Have fun baking! =]ReplyDelete

Taxi security reviewed after killing
"Transport Minister Steven Joyce will review the use of distress buttons, video cameras and safety screens to separate drivers and passengers."
Does the government have rules on the use of buttons, cameras and screens? If they do have these rules then the only thing Joyce needs to do is get rid of them.
But let's presume that they rules don't exist - why is the government wasting time and resources on this matter - surely it is the responsibility of the taxi driver what security he would like. Just like they decide if they are going to have a Navman or CD player or air freshener. Just like I decided to have an alarm system installed in my home - the neighbour didn't and was burgled on the weekend - she will now install an alarm.
Or is Joyce thinking about using our money to pay for taxi security? Please no - that would be a major slide down for this successful entrepreneur. Didn't take long.

Karen McVeigh in New York
- guardian.co.uk,
Frank Olsen's family claim CIA threw him from a hotel window and covered up his death after he witnessed torture by agency operatives in Europe.
The family of a US government scientist who fell to his death from a New York hotel window six decades ago have launched a lawsuit for damages against the CIA, alleging the agency was involved in his murder and a subsequent cover-up.
In one of the most notorious cases in the organisation's history, bioweapons expert Frank Olson died in 1953, nine days after he was given LSD by agency officials without his knowledge.
In the lawsuit, filed in the US district court in Washington on Wednesday, Olson's sons Eric and Nils claim their father was murdered after he witnessed extreme interrogations in which the CIA killed suspects using the biological agents he had developed.

Some more women arrive. They start to organize: beer is repositioned on the bar shelves, tins of soda are counted. Men's eyes start to drift from the dominoes. Hunger is beginning to bite and a few drift off to get some of the sweet smelling food. There are other distractions: cell phones keep ringing and men break away for more than a few minutes to deal with the calls. The games break up a little.
The bar owner arrives with several cases of beer. He also bring a few car loads more of men. Spirits revive and the afternoon looks set to stretch into night. Those of us with other responsibilities make a move to eat the pork, fish and boiled dumplings; something needs to push down that beer. We make a brief farewell visit to the sugar cane bush at the side of the bar, and leave without fanfare.
The country roads are quiet but we decide to take a shortcut across the land being mined for bauxite. The red earth and white marl make a sharp contrast to the lush fields of yam, corn, and cassava. The roads are pot-holed and we have to drive slowly but we reach the highway again quickly. The town centre is almost empty when we get there; most people are resting at home as the hustle of the week takes its toll. Sleep and rest are now the orders of the day. Sunday is indeed a day for rest.

The Neighborhood
You'll be located at the palace point, where the first Byzantine Palace was built and later the Ottomans founded their capital and built the Topkapi Palace. My family has been living at the same spot for the last 120 years and our neighbours, the Cagaloglus have been living here for the last 400 years. This is one of the last remaining neighborhoods in the Sultanahmet area.

You can access the Sultanahmet and Çemberlitaş tram stations by 10 mins walking. Similarly you can access the bus by 5 mins walking. The ferries are about 10 mins by car or 3 stops by tram.
We can provide you airport transfer through our transfer partner from either airport, if you ask for it. They charge 70 TL from Ataturk Airport and 160 TL from Sabiha Gokcen Airport. Similarly there are private shuttles and joint shuttles leaving to the airports. The return trips are cheaper since it doesn't involve the waiting.
We can book you the tickets if you let us know in advance. You can pay the transfer with your credit card over Airbnb, we can make a request and pay the transfer guys for you. Otherwise they accept cash. So prepare it beforehand. Sometimes they might not have a change for a 100. Cabs to/from Ataturk airport cost about 50 TL.
Don't take a cab from Sabiha Gokcen. Take the bus to Taksim followed by a cab or tram.

I may have an addiction to photos and have more than one photo collage wall. This means lots of nail holes in my walls which at first was a headache to get it just right. I have a photo collage wall the is asymmetrical and one that is very much symmetrical. Thus I needed to be pretty darn precise.
The first time I laid my photos on the floor until I was happy with my arrangements. Then I would take "rough" measurements, had my husband take the frame and try and figure where the bracket was at and put a hole in the wall. The first time he did this he put the nail in place where the pencil dot was. We use the nail hooks for photos to put less pressure on the nail and hole so that means all my photos were actually hanging lower than I wanted. Being the perfectionist I am I had to go back and create a lot more holes in my wall to get it somewhat more correct. As you can see from the photo above, the whole photo collage wall is a lot lower than is visually pleasing. Then the tornado came and the wall had to be fixed, holes filled in, and I got the opportunity to re-hang everything.
I did things differently this time.
1.) I arranged my photos on the floor making sure that my overall composition created the lines I wanted (like long horizontal lines).
2.) I measured EVERYTHING and made sure it was exact. This took a short amount of time. I would draw a symbol to represent each frame. I would mark where the bottom of the photo was. Another dot was drawn where the top of the frame was. Then I measured in to where the middle of my bracket was (which is rarely the precise middle of the frame) and how far from the top of the frame it was.
3.) I would measure the distance between my frames and any other measurement I thought would be important. This included the overall height of my photo collage so that I could center it with the opening on my wall.
4.) The measurements were then transferred to the wall by small pencil marks that were later erased.
5.) I made sure the bottom of the hook was placed on top of the dot indicating where the bracket is located.
I know it sounds like it was a lot of work but it actually took less time to hang my photos up the second time around and I wasn't angry or frustrated during the process AND I only had to pound in the minimum number of holes. I don't have one extra hole. My photos and other decorative items are exactly where I want them and look like they were professionally hung.
How do you hang photos? Is it a grueling process?

Bounce Wi-Fi Enhancer
When it comes to Wi-Fi signals, we definitely have come a long way since the 802.11a/b and even 802.11g days, where 802.11n has been the de facto standard for quite some time already, having extended range like never before. Well, you might want to consider the $24.99 Bounce Wi-Fi Enhancer as your next gadget purchase around the home as well as at the office, where this particular device is said to be able to give your Wi-Fi signal a boost in strength – up to three times, in fact. Bear in mind that the Bounce Wi-Fi Enhancer will work only in the presence of external antennas, anything internal will not work.
Talk about turning your router into one that runs on steroids! Good thing that there are no doping measures taken against Wi-Fi routers, right, otherwise the Bounce Wi-Fi Enhancer would surely be disqualified in the world of gizmos and gadgets. All you need to do is place the Bounce on top of your home's router, point it in the direction that needs the added boost, and you're good to go. Anyone given a go as to figure out its effectiveness in the real world?

Mary Black Memorial Hospital was founded in 1925 in Spartanburg, South Carolina. The founders, Dr. Hugh Ratchford Black and his two sons, Dr. Sam Orr Black, Sr. and Dr.Hugh Snoddy Black, named it in honor of their wife and mother, Mary Louisa Snoddy Black. The Mary Black Foundation was founded in 1985 to support the hospital, which was a nonprofit hospital. In 1996, the hospital was sold to Quorum Health Group, Inc. (a for-profit company) for $62 million. At this time, the Mary Black Foundation legally separated its association with the Mary Black Memorial Hospital and reconfigured its charitable mission with the $62 million as its corpus. The mission was to improve health and wellness in Spartanburg County.
Fiscal year 97-98, the Foundation's first year of grantmaking after its separation from the hospital, helped define its reconfigured mission. As the first South Carolina foundation to create an initiative, the Foundation's announcement in March 1997 of the Garrisons' Healthy Families Initiative was an appropriate reflection of Mary Snoddy Black's devotion to family. The Foundation's grant to help create the Middle Tyger Community Center also represented a connection with her birthplace in the Duncan, Lyman, Wellford area of Spartanburg County.
Early Grantmaking
The Foundation announced in the spring of 1997 its first initiative, the Garrisons' Healthy Families Initiative (1997-2002). Named by the Trustees in appreciation for T.R. and Alma Garrison's generous bequest, the Garrisons' Initiative called for collaboration among nonprofits to address comprehensively the root causes of poor health by focusing on prenatal and childhood strategies, while including the entire family unit.
The Foundation's second initiative, the Healthy Community Initiative (1998-2003), was a five-year commitment to address issues determined by the 1997 Spartanburg County Health Assessment: nutrition, cardiovascular disease, substance abuse, teen pregnancy, and illiteracy. The Foundation provided grants to task forces addressing these issues under the auspices of Healthy Spartanburg!, a collaboration of organizations and citizens working together to improve health status in Spartanburg County.
Shift to Strategic Grantmaking
In 2003, at the end of the two initiatives and after an 18-month planning process, the Foundation announced that it had identified two funding priority areas: Active Living and Early Childhood Development. In 2012, the Foundation expanded the Active Living priority area to include Healthy Eating.
In addition to the two priority areas, the Foundation awards grants through the Community Health Fund. The Community Health Fund is for projects outside the Foundation's Healthy Eating | Active Living and Early Childhood Development priority areas. The Community Health Fund represents 10-20% of the Foundation's total grantmaking.

V-Console App Dedicated Media Application Features
The V-Console App includes dedicated screens and features for many of the top DAWs and Video editors…
Built on CoreControl
CoreControl is a new technology invented by Paul Neyrinck that revolutionizes how control surfaces and software connect. CoreControl is at the heart of V-Control Pro, enabling fast and seamless connectivity between multiple control surfaces and media applications.
CoreControl was inspired in part by ASIO, CoreAudio, and MIDI. CoreControl provides the same advantages so everyone's products can work together.
CoreControl is an open-source system that uses standard technologies, which means the end of proprietary protocols and a new beginning of control innovation.
V-Control Pro Workflows
There are several ways to setup and integrate V-Control Pro into your studio or on the road.
Here are some examples of connectivity to the main Mac or PC in different environments…
Simple Setup
V-Control Pro software runs as a menu-bar application on your Mac or Windows computer. It automatically connects media applications such as Pro Tools, Cubase, and Logic Pro to controller apps and devices.
The Setups window shows all your devices, applications, and connected setups. It also provides powerful custom configuration for MIDI controllers. You can see setup guides for all media applications. You can also configure multiple devices for up to 32 tracks of mix control.
MIDI Controller Mapping In Pro Tools
V-Control Pro provides powerful MIDI features that let you control Pro Tools from MIDI hardware.
For example, you can set up recording and playback to be mapped to buttons on a MIDI controller.
V-Control Pro with Pro Tools and Avid Surfaces
This information applies to using V-Control Pro simultaneously with an Avid surface that is supported by Pro Tools. This information does not apply to using Pro Control or Control 24 in Pro Tools 11 and later which are not supported by Pro Tools. See above for how V-Control Pro instead supports Pro Control and Control 24 for use with Pro Tools 11 and later.
Pro Tools supports using V-Control Pro simultaneous with a supported ethernet controller such as S6, D-Command, C|24. But the two controllers are always banked to the same channels and V-Control Pro is banked to the left eight channels of the ethernet controller. Also, the plug-in editing in V-Control Pro will be disabled.
Pro Tools does not transmit metering to V-Control when an ethernet surface is configured in Pro Tools. Avid has verified that Pro Tools does not send metering to secondary controllers. Also, C|24 only allows one additional MIDI peripheral to be used simultaneous. This means you can either set V-Control as one HUI controller or one surround pan controller.
To make V-Control Pro operate as an independent controller you can temporarily disable the Ethernet controller in Pro Tools.
Legacy V-Control Pro 1 Support
V-Control Pro 1 for the iPad is fully supported by V-Control Pro Software and does not require a license. Ney-Fi has been renamed to V-Control Pro Software. To use V-Control Pro v 1.9, just download and install V-Control Pro Software and connect just like you did with Ney-Fi previously.
At any time you can optionally license V-Control Pro Bundle to get new features such as 32-track control, smartphone control, and Android. Check out this blog post 'How Does Legacy iPad V-Control Pro 1 Work with the New V-Control Pro 2 System for more details.

Suikergoed & Marsepein
Amsterdam: Barbara Huges, 1968. Second edition. 4to, 34 pp., mimeographed on rectos only and bound with cloth tape into textured card covers printed in color. Second expanded edition. With folded sheet laid in, entitled "het huiswerk voor iedereen".
A self-published treatise on trepanation by a member of Provo who had experienced the act firsthand. On January 6, 1965, Huges famously self-trepanated himself in a square in Amsterdam, drilling into his own head with a Black & Decker drill. Huges had studied as a medical student, where he developed the belief that since mankind began to walk upright our heads have been starved of oxygen; he believed that by trepanning, one could achieve a permanent high, bringing his actions into the psychedelic trajectory and influencing a small group of auto-trepanationists who have sought freedom from the boundaries of the skull.
This second edition has a different cover than the first, and includes ten additional pages of commentary by R. A. Hubner.
Very good with some light foxing to covers. Item #23494
Price: $450.00

Jewish organizations such as the Anti-Defamation League have condemned Glenn Beck for depicting New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg as giving a Nazi salute during a speech Beck gave at the National Rifle Association's 2013 convention.
As beck was criticizing Bloomberg for his recent proposed initiatives, he showed an image depicting Bloomberg with his arm raised in a Nazi salute and wearing an armband.
In a report from ABC News this Tuesday, Abraham Foxman, director of the Anti-Defamation League said that Beck's actions "aroused criticism by a major Jewish group for depicting the mayor giving a Nazi salute."
"While he doesn't say it, it seems Glenn Beck is implying through an image of Mayor Bloomberg in an apparent Hitlerian salute is that the mayor's policies on gun ownership and other issues are turning New York city into a Nazi-like state. That suggestion is outrageous, insensitive and deeply offensive on so many levels […] Glenn Beck should know better. He has drawn similar inappropriate analogies to the Holocaust before. We wish he would stop trivializing the history of the Holocaust to score partisan political points."
In a rather unconvincing defense on his radio show, Beck claimed that he was the victim of a smear by ABC News, demanding an apology. In a somewhat incoherent defense of the Bloomberg image, Beck said that it was actually an image of Lenin, not a Nazi — although he admitted that the pose was "a sieg heil salute."
Furthermore, a statement from the National Jewish Democratic Council called on the NRA and GOP leaders to condemn Beck's antics:
"Glenn Beck's use of disgusting imagery, showing a leading Jewish American as a Nazi, at the National Rifle Association's convention was deeply offensive. The NRA and Republican leaders must stand with the ADL and B'nai B'rith in condemning Glenn Beck–especially those who selected him to give the NRA's keynote address. This isn't only about what Beck said, but the disturbing fact that his stunt was embraced with applause and cheers by attendees at the NRA's national convention. The NRA's crowd is the Republican base and all Americans must take note."
Listen to Beck's comments on his radio show in the video below.
6 Comments
The better question would be; Where the hell does Beck get his news and history? Since when has any liberal held up Lenin, Stalin or Mao as a hero? This guy just gets nuttier as the days pass.
Something needs to be done about these whack jobs , they get crazier by the day.
A rather facile counter to a rather trivial analogy. You can attack Beck on better issues than his attack on the soda ban and calling Bloomberg a Nazi. I'd like to see something efficacious when I click on a provocative link. Waste of time.
Pingback: Jewish Groups Call on NRA to Condemn Glenn Beck...
I disagree with " Occupy Wallstreet ". ANY newspost that shows a HATEFUL man HATING is NECCESSARY, in order to keep people aware of his vitriol. Glenn Beck is a HATEFUL man, with NOTHING but hate in his soul. As a JEW, I for one want this man taken DOWN for this.
I just want to say I'm beginner to blogging and really loved you're website. Almost certainly I'm planning to bookmark your blog post . You absolutely have wonderful articles. Bless you for sharing your website page.

Children's Gospel Clubs Have Begun!
June 10th, 2014 by Kate Smith | | Posted in Field Updates, Opportunities
Every spring we begin a new round of Children's Gospel Clubs (CGCs), which combine the best of VBS and Sunday School together, forming a discipleship program that meets weekly for an entire year!
CGCs offer hope in a land plagued by poverty, disease and spiritual darkness. Children who attend a club will not only learn about Jesus, they'll be encouraged to share Him with their families and friends. This creates a lifelong impact, and can ripple through families and villages. Some of our CGC attendees have even grown up to become IGL church planters!
On May 1 the summer program began holding clubs in over 12,200 centers in 10 languages and two countries. To prepare for this enormous undertaking and to reach our goal of discipling 625,000 kids, we trained 1,000 CGC leaders and 60,000 CGC teachers. Just $1 is all it takes to give a child in South Asia a whole year of Christian discipleship – this includes not only sharing the gospel message, but also training in theology, Christian living and Bible stories.
$1 = 1 more child hearing about Jesus
India Gospel League would love to be your partner in global children's missions. To find out more about how you, your VBS program, your church or your community can be a part of reaching kids in India through CGCs, visit www.IGLWorld.org/CGC.

Week #1: The 2016 Election: "The 'Logistical Moment' In Which We Americans Find Ourselves"
Tuesday, March 29th (Click for video link)
The 2016 election can be seen as a microcosm of a persistent conflict in American history between populist and elitist politics. Bernie Sanders attempts to represent the egalitarian, idealist, democratic socialist strain of US politics with a campaign based on economic justice for average Americans. Donald Trump chooses to appeal to nostalgia, xenophobia and antigovernment sentiment amongst the electorate with a campaign based on "restoring" America to glory of its imperialist past. Trump and Sanders occupy opposite ends of the political spectrum in a nation that is highly divided.

Thursday, March 31st
Hillary Clinton, an additional competitor for the 2016 Presidential Nomination of the National Democratic Party, represents a third alternative: an equally classical "American Compromise" that has often been struck by the governing class in American politics, representing an attempt to straddle the fence between these two opposing extremes – on the one hand embracing (often in closeddoor private speeches to gatherings of the heads of American business corporations and financial houses such as Goldman Sachs) the unquestioned alliance between Government and Big Business, while, on the other hand, publicly extolling the candidate's desire to TRY TO move our nation's public and private policies voluntarily toward a more egalitarian distribution of the wealth, while doing at least something for the least well off. Realistically recognizing, however, that such "efforts" must remain entirely voluntary on the part of "The 1%", which will make such efforts understandably difficult, because these efforts are opposed by "very powerful political forces within our nation" who must be "respected" and "accommodated" within our "representative" democratic political system.

Week #2: The End of the Cold War & The Re-ascendance of The Robber Baron Ethos: The LongerTerm "Tactical Moment" In Which We Americans Find Ourselves
Tuesday, April 5th
This lecture covers the period of time leading up to and following the Cold War Era, which lasted from the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917 through the dissolution of the Soviet Union on December 31, 1991.
The Cold War gave the United States the ability to have a dialectical relationship with their ultimate other, the Soviet Union. However, the question remained as to who was to take that place of the other once the Soviet Union no longer posed a threat. The discussion includes specific instances that led to the dissolution of the Soviet Union by Mikhail Gorbachev and the intentional conflict created in the Middle East to take the place of the Soviet Union as a strategic military focus for the United States.
In continuing with the theme of this lecture series, this discussion names specific players, existing behind the scenes, making national and foreign policy decisions on the part of the United States.

3. The 1992 United States Defense Department Policy Planning Guidance Document (Feb. 1992 version #1: http://work.colum.edu/~amiller/wolfowitz1992.htm ;
Thursday, April 7th
What happened as a consequence of the dissolution of the Soviet Union? What did the United States do to actively control the raw materials necessary for the domination of the Northern Industrial Alliance?
The 2000 presidential election was rigged in favor of George W. Bush, with the state of Florida (governed by his brother Jeb Bush) being the crucial factor for Gore's loss of the election.
Upon entry into office, the Bush/Cheney administration immediately pushed for an oil pipeline to be constructed from the Caspian Sea, through Afghanistan, to warm water ports for shipment. The fallout of Afghanistan's refusal to allow for this pipeline is discussed in detail.
In addition, the rigging of the 2004 presidential election is discussed, and the important players in the present incarnation of the shadow government are reviewed.
Note: Danny mistakenly refers to Saddam Hussein as Shiite, when he was in fact a Sunni.

Week #3: The Robber Baron Era
Tuesday, April 12th
This discussion covers the period from the end of the Civil War (1868) to the end of World War I (1918).
Why was the Civil War fought? The general conception was to abolish slavery, but Professor Sheehan covered the economic reasons for the Civil War and the influence such powers had on the government. Just after the repercussions of the Fourteenth Amendment began to take hold and personal liability for corporate actions began to vanish, the National Board of Homeland Ministries of the Methodist Church established a summer program at Lake Chautauqua, near Buffalo, New York. This summer program turned into the Chautauqua Movement, which influenced the rise of
labor unions, the women's suffrage movement, the public school system, child labor laws, safety standards at the workplace, and the first environmental movement.
Professor Sheehan then went on to discuss Worldviews, as Talcott Parsons initially proposed and their adaptation through philosophy and political philosophy.

Imperialism and Labor Unrest
Thursday, April 21st
From WWI to WWII
Exploring the actions of US negotiators at the Paris Peace Conference of 1919, and show that their public accomplishments in diplomacy, reparations agreements and treaty conditions for the state department also benefitted the private corporations. We will continue to study the role of the American steel, oil and auto industries in the rapid, profitable militarization of germany in the 1920's and 30's that made the Third Reich a global superpower, and the continued support of American business even after 1939. Finally, we will examine the financial networks that intimately linked fascist German financiers with well known Wall Street bankers.

Kitchen Promises
Author: Brooke Cumberland
Series: Riverside Trilogy #3
Genre: Contemporary New Adult Romance
Release Date: December 2013
Nothing ever comes easy for Molly Woods.
Faced with past fears, heartache, & limits...
Can she make promises to the one man she can't get enough of? Can she promise him forever...?
With new obstacles, Molly must make a decision.
Drake Stagliano always gets what he wants.
But with a new threat, how far will he go to make sure Molly is his forever?
When new secrets are revealed, Drake must take matters into his own hands.
Can they make forever happen? Or will promises be made that can't be kept...?
I grabbed the luffa and poured bodywash over it. I lathered it up and began washing over my body. I smiled as I washed over my swollen bump. The reality of having twins suddenly overcame me as I felt butterflies and kicks on the outside for the first time.
"Oh my god!" I squealed, smiling. I dropped the luffa and brought my hands over my belly, anxiously waiting to feel them again. "Drake!" I called out, opening the shower door. I wanted him to feel this.
I left the door open as I waited for him. I heard the bathroom door open and heard Drake, "What is it? Everything okay?" He peeked in looking worried.
"Everything's great! The babies just kicked!" I pointed down at my belly, all giddy. "I can feel them on the outside!"
"Yes, come in here!" I smiled. I waited as he stripped down and slowly stepped in. "Here, put your hands right here." I placed his hands on each side of my belly.
As the water sprinkled over us, both babies kicked simultaneously. Drake's face lit up as the little movements kicked against his hands. The moment is simple incredible—watching Drake's expression as he felt his babies for the first time.
"I can't believe this," he gushed. "It makes it so much more real."
I watched as his hands roamed over my belly. I could tell it was making him emotional. This was the absolute best part of pregnancy—watching Drake become a father and finally being able to experience these moments with him.
"Isn't it amazing?" I looked up into his eyes.
"It's incredible." I wiped under his eyes where I could tell he was crying.
He cupped my face and softly kissed my lips until they were nearly bruised. The water continued sprinkling over our heads as we kissed under it, not moving or saying a word—just soaking every second of this moment up.

Flower Delivery to West Dulwich with Clare Florist
Located in south London and bordered by the boroughs of Lambeth, Southwark, Croxted Road and South Croxted Road, West Dulwich is a proud suburb of one of the largest cities in the world. The borough itself dates back to the 17th century when it was called Dulwich Common. At that time, the land was purchased by the estate of Edward Alleyn and actually drained because it was often flooded.
The earliest records of anything to do with West Dulwich started in 967AD when Edgar the Peaceful granted the property to Earl Aelfheah. At the time it was called Dilwihs which means "meadow where the dill grew".
Over the centuries, the area became the property of succeeding kings who sold or gave the land to various entities. It wasn't until 1629 when Dulwich College was formed did the area become used as before it was mostly flooded plains. The famed Beauberry House was built in 1785 and by 1812 the Kingswood House was constructed. During this time the population grew steadily and by the turn of the 20th century Dulwich became part of the Camberwell.
For those interested in visiting some of the famous parks in the West Dulwich area, they include the following;
- Belair Park
- Brockwell Park
- Dulwich Park
- Dulwich Wood
- Thurlow Park
You can find many spots of greenery as well when visiting places on Rosendale Road, College Road, and Park Hall Road. Plus, you can find the Old College Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club on the east side of Gallery Road.
Local Shops
When walking down West Dulwich, you can see the two main lines of shops which include the Park Hall road junction located where Croxted Road turns into South Croxted Road. There are a number of great shops that include a number of independent stores as well as a Tesco. The other most noted shopping centre is located on Rosendale Road where you can find many local shops that bring out the flavor of the region.
In addition, there are a number of noted pubs and places of historic interest such as the Beauberry House which is now a restaurant. You can find it on the opposite side of the West Dulwich railway station in Belair Park.

A few groans and ughs and I made it out of bed. But oh man was snowboarding fun! Jake kept telling me that I was going to hate it at first but I seemed to think that I was going to be awesome. Turns out...Jake was right. For the first hour or so, I was hating the experience. Even though I had a pretty handsome instructor, I was frustrated, annoyed and hurting. It also didn't help that kids half my size were zooming past me. I may have even glared at a few of them. Whoops.
After we took a little break, I got back out on the board and it seems a bit easier. I actually managed to make it down the hill without fall, except for getting off the tow rope. I still can't managed to get away from it when I let go, so I usually opt for falling and scooting. I'm sure it's quite a sight from a distance.
Once I actually started to get the hang out it, it was so much fun. It was such an adrenalin rush. I was pretty proud of myself and that I stuck with it and managed to really enjoy it. I still have a really long way to go, but I definitely want to go again.
This weekend also included time spent with my dear cousin and her husband. We so enjoy our time with them when we see them. There is always lots of conversation and laughs over great food and drinks.

"Hello, How May I Edit You?"
As you may (or may not) have noticed, my blogging has been all over the place lately. :D And now that it's October, which is one month closer to NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month), it's not going to get any normal.
Life is a lot more fun when it's unpredictable, right? Right? Oh okay, not for you guys who crave routines. ;D
So. I FINISHED writing my first draft of HIDDEN. Mind you, this is probably the 4th start-from-scratch-again revision draft, so it's not exactly my first ever novel to finish. Just the one I am satisfied...FOR NOW. For lo and behold, just when you think you've finally written fin or the end or booyah! at the end of your manuscript, and you're finally stuffing yourself with cupcakes in celebration of your GREAT accomplishment, the doorbell rings and the red pen is at your doorstep saying, "Hello, how may I EDIT you?"
If you are smart (like me), you'd slam the door on its face and say, "Not today, buddy! Come back in a couple of weeks."
And then you go back to your happy dancing and cupcake eating, and never mind the red pen eyeing you balefully from outside the kitchen window. You'd better celebrate now because once the two weeks are up, YO! NO CUPCAKES FOR YOU AND YOU MIGHT AS WELL GET SLASHER-CRAZY AND WIELD A HATCHET BECAUSE YOUR FIRST DRAFT WILL BE NEEDING SOME MAJOR SURGERY!
Ahem. It's one of the truths in the universe, unfortunately. No first rough draft turns out to magically be a bestseller. It's just not happenin', dude. Okay? EDITING is part of the process. No shortcuts, no way around it. So tell me, since I need my head back on pretty soon-- HOW DO YOU EDIT YOUR MS?
Please share 'cause I need ideas that are not as torturous as what I'm planning to do with my beloved manuscript. On Wednesday, I'll share with you my process and a few linkages to awesome editing advice.
While you're here, enjoy this Monday Funny to start off your week right!

I edit with a red pen and the intention to make my manuscript bleed as much as possible. Then I make the necessary changes and read through with a blue pen. The intention is to make sure my previous changes did not make things worse.
Then I am done. No more editting until I get feedback from beta readers. This is because it is very easy for me to fall into the trap pf over editing.
Good luck.

I know I already said it once, but I'll say it again--CONGRATS!!
Okay, well this is how I edit (1) let it "simmer" for at least 6 weeks--no peeking! ;o) (2) the heavy editing begins--this is where I fix the obvious stuff . . . the stuff that jumps up and screams "fix me!" (3) start passing it out to beta readers (4) more editing--incorporating beta feedback, and fixing things I didn't catch the first time around (5) the polishing stage--fixing the little things and making sure it reads pretty :o) This whole process took me about 3 months, which is the same amount of time it took me to write the darn thing, lol.
This is how I do it, but of course, everyone is different :o) Good luck with the editing!

Lori: Thanks!
Krista: You're right. There is such a thing as overediting. Thanks for the tips!
Angela: 6 weeks?!? Okay, maybe that'll work better for me. I'll start editing after Nanowrimo then. Thank you for the helpful tips!

Hi pal! I did a whole chapter map in a grid. The first column was the page #s, the second column (briefly) what happens in the chapter, the third column potential problems and questions for myself as well as misc notes. Then I went through and answered all those problems and questions one by one--cutting and moving whole chapters and adding new info as needed. Some writers would do this sort of thing BEFORE first draft (outline or map) but I cannot write that way...I am a pantser. Then I give it to my husband to read and he uses a green pen and covers it with notes. Then we discuss his notes at great length over martinis. Then I go back into the manuscript! Editing is never my fave part of the writing process, however...poo!

Editing is not complete without many cupcakes, too! When I edit, I read the entire thing out loud to myself. It's amazing how much it helps with dialog, infodumping, run on sentences.

- Mindy McGinnis said...
I edit by waiting. A lot. It's amazing what jumps out at you after you've been through it with what you consider a fine-tooth comb, only to come back a month later and find "your" and "you're" mistakes.
Beta readers. That's all I've got to say.

- Clarissa Draper said...
Lots of good advice already but here's what I do:
(a) let the manuscript sit.
(b) find some awesome critique partners (hopefully in the same genre)
(c) after you get back some critiques, work on the plot errors and macro edits first
(d) go back for the micro edits (grammar, word choice)
(e) let it sit again
(f) read through again
(g) repeat steps c and d until perfect

Im not kidding when I say this: I am doing just a "Suspense" revision. I am going through and adding one element of suspense to every single scene in my ms. It could be an extra detail of setting, character, or whatever. An extra time crucnch. An extra "turn" or "twist". Seriously.

umm.... can I have that gift? LOL! As for editing, yep. I do the whole stick it in a drawer for a while and then drag it out when (hopefully) I've forgotten it. :p Good luck~ <3

I print the entire thing out. Sit down with my purple (red is so harsh!) pen and start reading. I make comments/changes as I go. Then when all is said and done--incorporate into the document. After I've done this a few times, hand it off to some guinea pigs (a.k.a. betas).

Huge congrats on finishing HIDDEN (again?)!! Your approach of letting the thing rest is wise. I have never been able to do it. AS SOON as I finish a manuscript, and there have been a handful at this point, I dive right back in. I never allow myself to get some perspective--I just worry at it and obsess over it for days. I've never even typed "the end" because I. Can't. Stop. I mean, I also send it to my agent and betas and all that, but I can't seem to let the thing rest. So--that's probably not that helpful to you, except to cheer you on in your current approach. Which sounds sane.

i took time away by writing and sending out a couple queries! ha!
then i concentrated on one or two objectives at a time, usually from critiques and then improved the query and sent out some more. edit, rinse, repeat!
i'm a plotter, so this may not be helpful...
but congrats & good luck!

Woohoo! Finishing a story is SUCH a great feeling! Enjoy :)
I tend to edit on screen rather than print out. I usually know the big problems already - so I attack them first. :)

I like printing it out and going through it with a pen. I hate, however, having to go back and put the edits back into the PC, but this is the best way for me, so far.

I know nothing about editing, I'm about to start next week for the first time (after a false start with the, now abandoned, previous ms). But, I am so writing booyah! at the end of every ms from now on :-)

For once, I'd love cupcakes to ring my doorbell instead of a red pen. :)
Congrats on your accomplishment! Finishing a first draft is HUGE!

Congratulations on finishing and on putting the Edit-pen in it's proper place! :)
The key of editing, for me, is voice. By the end of my "final" draft, my characters had become so much more alive that they sounded flat in the beginning chapters. Once I knew what my characters sounded like (and who they were and what they wanted and how they would say things), editing became the easiest thing in the world. Easy because I knew what I had to do...it was still a ton of work! But I found that all the necessary rewrites came out of making my characters consistent with who they had become by the end. After that, it was line editing. And for line edits, highlighters are my best friends. I assign each color to a particular thing (beats, dialogue tags, adverbs, etc) and go through one chapter at a time. In the process of fixing the highlights, I'm normally able to tighten the prose up without another separate pass.
Oh. And I use purple pens when I edit. Because red is an angry color and purple is a creative one ;)

5 easy ways explaining how to prevent body odor
| Updated On: 2016-08-03T03:10:53+05:30 | Location :
Bad body odor can give a negative impression about your hygiene. Make an effort to smell nice with these tips before you turn off people around you. You definitely do not want to recognized for your body odor. Be it strong or light. Here are the steps to stop the smell and control sweating!
Body odor is definitely a turn off that we don't want to be associated with. The problem starts when we don't realize if we are smelling awful. This happens because our sense of smell is quickly accustomed to our own body odor. If you are unable to figure it out yourself, you may ask your friend or a family member to be honest about it. However, if they respond in the affirmative about the smell, don't fret. Quickly follow these steps:
Keep your under arms clean
Do not use lotion and creams in the underarms area. Hair growth under your arms can create a place for bacteria. Keep it clean and do not let bacteria to settle. Hair is porous which means it easily absorbs the odors and slows the evaporation of your sweat.
Have a good shower
Take a shower at least once a day and wash away the sweat as well as the bacteria on your skin. It is important to use a soap or an antibacterial detergent depending on how much you sweat. Focus on underarms and feet as they are the high body odor areas. Dry yourself completely especially on areas where sweating is most.
Apply an antiperspirant roll-on/stick
If you think that using some products will make your arms darker then stop worrying about it. Get a good antiperspirant and you will know if it suits your skin or not. They are mostly safe unless you are using a poor quality ones or something that is not suitable for your skin. Using them after your shower is the best time. You may also use when you feel sweaty.
Keep yourself dry and carry a body spray
Think you are not appearing fresh at work? Carrying a handkerchief or facial tissues can see you through sweaty hours. Use sprays to avoid bad odor. However, make sure you do not overuse it lest you end up annoying people around you.
Have plenty of water and eat healthy
Eat fresh and healthy food. Your diet makes a huge difference in body odor. Drinking lots of water will help you eliminate body odor though sweating. Water intake is important. So, eat right and drink well.. the water.
