Masoor Dal Khichdi (Indian Orange Lentil Rice)
Kitcheri is a very simple recipe that requires only a few ingredients from the pantry. It's a blend of coral-colored lentils, called masoor dal, with basmati rice and a few other typical Indian spices.
It's very nutritious for all the vegetarians in the house. The lentils provide a lot of protein. The key to a good kitcheri though is a flavorful raita, or yogurt sauce. Check back tomorrow for the recipe!
Yields: 4 servings1-½ cups basmati rice
3/4 cup masoor dal
4 cups water
1 cup yellow onion, chopped
3/4 teaspoon cumin seeds
¼ teaspoon turmeric powder, for color
4 cloves
1 (1-inch) stick cinnamon
4 whole coriander seeds
6 whole black peppercorns
1 teaspoon ginger garlic paste
3 green cardamom pods
2 black cardamom pods, slightly crushed
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 tablespoons ghee
1 pinch sugar (optional)
1/3 cup fried onions, not too browned
1 drizzle lime juice
1 tablespoon cilantro, chopped
Mix lentils and rice in a bowl. Wash and rinse thoroughly in several water baths (about three times) and set aside for at least 3 hours or preferably overnight. Drain the rice and lentils.
In a medium-sized saucepan, add the oil and about 1-½ tablespoons of ghee. Do NOT burn the ghee as it browns very fast like butter. Add the ginger, garlic, the chopped onion and all the spices except the salt. Cook until the onions are translucent. Add the rice and lentils. The ghee and oil should coat each grain. Add the water and stir constantly. Add cilantro, bring to a boil without covering then lower to medium heat for about 20 minutes. Add the lime juice, salt, the fried onions and a pinch of sugar (if used). Place little mounds of ghee all over the rice. Seal the saucepan with aluminum foil and cover tightly with a lid. Steam should escape from the pan. Cook for another 30 minutes on low.
Garnish with some fresh cilantro and serve with raita.
Bon appétit!
Indian cuisine often calls for ginger garlic paste. It tastes great and is very healthy for you as well. Just clean the ginger, carefully removing any dirt. Peel the ginger root with a paring knife, then finely chop the root. Place the chopped ginger and 5 cloves of garlic in a blender, add about 2 tablespoons (or more) of water for a smooth flow. Transfer to a jar and store in the refrigerator. You can keep this paste for at least a week in the refrigerator.
Ghee is the Indian version of clarified butter. You can find them in jars at the Indian store. But if you don't have ghee, you can add some butter instead to the rice.
Masoor dal (orange lentils) can be both found in any Asian or Indian stores.
Frying onions is easy. Chop the onion. Heat about 1 inch heigh of canola oil in a skillet. Fry the onion in the oil, stirring frequently to prevent the onion from burning until the color is evenly golden brown. Drain the oil on paper towels. I always have to make extra so that I can vacuum-seal and store in the freezer for future use. I place about one cup per bag. You can store them up to 3 months. I think it's the best way to keep the same flavor without getting freezer burn. I keep them exactly the same way I would do with my extra pesto or the (papaya) meat tenderizer for my poultry.

SEOUL, Korea, May 26, 2015 – SanDisk Corporation (NASDAQ: SNDK), a global leader in flash storage solutions, today introduced the new SanDisk Z400s SSD, a cost effective solid-state drive (SSD) designed to replace hard-disk drives (HDDs) in computing platforms and embedded applications. PCs and embedded systems need consistent, reliable access to storage in order to meet business demands. The Z400s outperforms HDDs by 20x1, while providing 5x the reliability with 20x lower average power consumption, all at a price point on par with HDDs2. The SanDisk Z400s SSD joins the company's existing portfolio of flash-based solutions that are designed to deliver a delightful user experience and reliability at an affordable price point.
"The Z400s represents a feat of engineering that addresses the needs of two distinct markets—PC OEM manufacturers and embedded application designers," said Rizwan Ahmed, senior director of product marketing, client platform solutions, SanDisk. "With a single architecture, SanDisk is able to provide OEMs with an affordable solution for displacing HDDs in today's cutting edge consumer devices, and help embedded application designers avoid overpaying for un-needed space—all while delivering the peak performance and high-reliability that only SSDs can supply."
An Economic Way for OEMs to Add Value and Competitive Advantage
With a variety of form factors and capacities, lightweight design and cost-effective architecture, PC OEMs can incorporate the new SanDisk Z400s into sleeker, mobile laptop designs without breaking bill of materials (BOM) costs. Additionally, because SSDs have no moving parts, they are much less prone to failure, which increases device uptime. According to published data, HDDs are three times more likely to fail than SSDs.3 By designing systems with the new SanDisk Z400s SSD, PC OEMs can deliver products that are 5x more reliable and 20x faster than traditional hard drives, translating into fewer returns, lower total cost of ownership and increased overall customer satisfaction.
IDC forecasts that the Intelligent Systems market will ship over two billion units in 2019 with the industrial segments growing the fastest.4 Digital signage, security surveillance, POS or kiosk environments are key areas where SanDisk SSDs can provide major benefits over HDDs, particularly in applications where the storage requirements are relatively short-term—meaning that data is frequently cleared from the device. Thus these applications only require low capacities, but reliability and performance levels are paramount.
Greater Reliability for Industrial Embedded Systems
Embedded industrial systems rely on storage's ability to execute one task consistently with minimal downtime. The Z400s can withstand up to 1.7 million hours of continual use, delivering greater stability during peak activity, underscoring its high-endurance design and reliability. Available in multiple form factors and capacities as low as 32GB, the new SanDisk Z400s SSD meets embedded systems applications designers' performance, reliability, size, low power, interface and scalability requirements for the following use cases:
The SanDisk Z400s is sampling with customers immediately in mSATA, 2.5" SATA and M.2 (2242 and 2280) form factors, in capacities of 32GB, 64GB, 128GB and 256GB*. For more information on the Z400s for mainstream computing and embedded applications, view this video or visit z400s.
See live demos of the new Z400s and SanDisk's complete portfolio of flash-enabled solutions at booth CB101 3F Hall C in COEX Exhibition Hall during the World IT Show 2015, taking place May 26-27th.
See live demos and interact with SanDisk flash technology experts during Computex 2015 taking place June 2-6 at the Taipei World Trade Center NANGANG Exhibition Hall 4F, Stand number: N0804. SanDisk will be showcasing its latest breadth of offerings, as well as hosting interactive video sessions and social media contests. Hear Chris Bergey, vice-president and general manager of mobile and tablet solutions at SanDisk, discuss how mobile storage innovation is shaping mobile OEM monetization during Compuforum on Thursday, June 5 from 11:00am-11:30am.
SanDisk Corporation (NASDAQ: SNDK), a Fortune 500 and S&P 500 company, is a global leader in flash storage solutions. For more than 25 years, SanDisk has expanded the possibilities of storage, providing trusted and innovative products that have transformed the electronics industry. Today, SanDisk's quality, state-of-the-art solutions are at the heart of many of the world's largest data centers, and embedded in advanced smart phones, tablets and PCs. SanDisk's consumer products are available at hundreds of thousands of retail stores worldwide. For more information, visit www.sandisk.com.

The presence of this walk in both was as good an indication of quality as one is likely to get! Anyway, we parked in Caherdaniel by the recycling collection point at V551 595 A and followed the Kerry way to the Windy Gap at V586 632 B. From here, we climbed the very steep/grassy/slippery slope to the summit, following the fence at the upper reaches. As the late Richard Mersey put it ' the 300 ft up from the Windy Gap is the sort of slope that causes a man addicted to Afton Major to pause for breath every fifty steps or so'. Irrespective of Richard's smoking habit, I have to say that pausing only every fifty steps on this slope is a pretty good performance in my book! As the various writers have indicated, the top is boggy and underwhelming in itself but the views are spectacular. On the very fine day that was the 5th of November 2011, we could see all five Ivernian peninsulas with views from Mt Brandon to Mizen Head, and the islands of the southwest including the Blaskets, Valentia, Skelligs, Dursey and the fabled Teach Duinn (portal to the otherworld) beyond. It took around 2 hours to reach the top. We returned via Mullaghbeg (see separate entry) at V558 637 C clambering directly down the slope to the unsurfaced road at V561 620 D which brought us back to our car. Overall trip 5 hour and 5 minutes including breaks.

It shows a craggy, but not excessively steep, ridge descending north from the summit. One for the adventurous, perhaps? I would expect most people to ascend by the gentle route from the west or by climbing sharply up from the Kerry Way. Whatever the ascent route, this hill deserves a fine day, as the panorama of Beara, Iveragh, Dingle and ocean promises to be exceptional.

This photograph was taken from Kenmare Bay close to the village of Castlecove. The plateau between Eagles Hill and the hill to the right is the Windy Gap. A great route to the summit of Eagles Hill is from the Windy Gap. From Caherdaniel follow the Kerry Way towards Sneem till you come to a fork in the path. Take the sign posted left route for Waterville thats winds its way up the side of Coad Mountain & Eagles Hill. The path eventually reaches the Windy Gap and from here it is a steep ascent to the top of Eagles Hill.

At the top of this road one meets the Kerry Way and there is plenty of room to park outside what looks like a building for housing farm machinery, at point V577607 E. I then headed west for a few hundred metres until I came to a signpost, taking the Waterville direction which skirts Eagles Hill. Rather than folow the Kerry Way which goes close to the summit but leaves one a very steep final ascent, I turned NW where a stream crosses the track the steeply sided mountain opens up a little in terms of access, at point V580620 F. After a few hundred metres negotiation rocky, furze-lined gulleys I veered NE again and reached the top after about 90 minutes. The ascent proved much more interesting than the summit which is a long, broad grassy bog-like top, the summit at the NE end marked only by a single white rock placed upon a turf mound.

At the col known as the Windy Gap it is time to leave the way marked trail and climb a very steep few hundred metres to reach the unmarked summit.

text: Nils, when you say edit the normals in your 3D application, what do you mean exactly? How do you do it in Max or another 3d app? Can the technique be used for hair and palm fronds etc? I have the same issue with several textures where transparent z-write looks so much better and realistic but the water in the background messes it up. Also, with transparent z-write on, my palm fronds don't drop shadows. Is there a fix for that?

I've been noticing many more glasses coming out of the dishwasher with a white residue on them.
I blame this trend on my roommates' overzealous dish-rinsing habits rather than my overzealous wine glass-using habits, of course.
But, what does rinsing my plate have to do with my wine glass, Julie?
Everything, Loyal Appliance Blog Reader.
Many of today's dishwasher detergents contain phosphates, which need food residue to break down. So, if there's no food residue or grease, the phosphates don't break down. Instead, they somehow end up on your glassware (disclosure: I'm no chemist, if you haven't noticed yet.)
As if you need another reason to stop pre-rinsing/washing your dishes.
So, washing my dishes actually causes them to become dirty?
That's what we call irony, LABR. You're catching on.
If you find yourself with a rack of filmy glassware, save the labor — and the water (rinsing dishes often uses more water than a dishwasher cycle) — and run a warm vinegar rinse.
Put 2 cups white vinegar in a glass or dishwasher-safe measuring cup on the bottom rack. Then run the dishwasher through a complete washing cycle using an air-dry or an energy-saving dry option. Do not use detergent. The vinegar will mix with the wash water.
Running a vinegar cycle every few months is a good idea, per se.

The Austin and Dallas divisions of McGuyer Homebuilders, Inc., (MHI), parent company of Coventry Homes, Plantation Homes and Wilshire Homes, have been named LEED Homes Power Builders for 2017.
The divisions were two of only four Texas builders to receive the designation, which denotes excellence in the residential green building marketplace, and the only production builder in the state to earn the title. To qualify as a LEED Homes Power Builder, developer and builders must have LEED-certified 90 percent of their homes/units built during 2016. In all, only 24 builders throughout the nation qualified in the recently announced awards.
"We made a commitment years ago to prioritize sustainability in our building practices," said Gary Tesch, MHI president. "In fact, when we started following the LEED for Homes mandates in Austin and Dallas, we were the only production builder in those areas doing so."
Coventry Homes and Plantation Homes build throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth area, with pricing from the $240,000s. McGuyer Homebuilders has been building LEED-certified homes in the marketplace since 2010.
In Austin, Coventry Homes and Wilshire Homes have been building to LEED standards since 2012. The builders offer homes priced from the $240,000s in 22 area developments.
Created in 2008, the LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) for Homes rating system is a way for single- and multi-family homes to achieve certification. Qualifying projects undergo a rigorous process to become certified including multiple on-site inspections and diagnostic tests. Building mandates include measures for water conservation, indoor air quality, energy efficiency that exceeds local codes by at least 15 percent, use of environmentally preferable products, minimal construction waste and ground protection during the construction process.
McGuyer Homebuilders also offers homes in Houston and San Antonio. It is considered one of the nation's largest homebuilders and is ranked No. 36 on the Builder 100 list compiled by BUILDER magazine.

Every week, a DIY expert spares us a trip to the grocery store and shows us how to make small batches of great foods at home.
In today's Small Batch, Tasia Malakasis of Belle Chevre shares her recipe for homemade goat cheese.
Cheese. It's one of those ingredients we imagine as 'nuclear': as a base ingredient that comes from who-knows-where for use in other recipes. However, much like pasta, cheese is a food that you can make at home, one that you should make at home. Fresh chevre is one of the easiest cheeses to craft in your kitchen. It's mostly a matter of heating goat's milk, allowing the curds and whey to separate, and draining for a few hours. The best batches are always those you hang and forget about for half the day; with time, the cheese gets denser, more flavorful, and more like the award-winning chevre we make at our creamery.
It may seem contradictory for a cheesemaker to encourage her friends to make their own cheese. But as you'll find, it is both fun and satisfying. And incredibly simple. You can make it in the time it takes you to brew a pot of coffee. I promise that after you try your hand at it, you'll wonder what you were waiting for. Not only is goat cheese the healthiest (we like to say sexiest, skinniest, and smartest) cheese, lower in fat and calories and higher in vitamins than cow's milk cheeses, it's also the most versatile. In my new cookbook, Tasia's Table, I have recipes for everything from goat cheese salad dressing to chevre cheesecake -- it's like the little black dress of cheeses.
My recipe includes citric acid, which is what we include with Belle Chevre's new DIY Make Your Own Goat Cheese Boxes. However, if you are without this ingredient at home, you can also use the juice of one lemon. So what are you waiting for? Get to cheese-making, and have fun!
Homemade Goat Cheese
Makes one log
1 gallon goat milk2 rounded teaspoons of citric acid2 teaspoons salt (or to taste)Cheesecloth or cotton kitchen towel
Mix the citric acid with 1/2 cup of water. In a heavy-bottomed, non-reactive pot, combine the goat milk and citric acid to 185 degrees over medium heat, stirring continuously. Once it reaches this temperature, turn off the heat and allow to sit for 15 minutes.
Lay out your cheese towel in a bowl. Pour in the milk mixture. The curds simply resemble curdled milk at this point. Tie the ends of the towel together so it becomes a bag. Hang it on a wooden spoon and let the bag hang free. The whey should strain for at least two hours, but for best results you can leave closer to 6 hours. This makes forming a log easier and results in a denser cheese. Before taking the cheese out of the cloth, squeeze the cloth to extract more liquid from the cheese.
Transfer the cheese from the cloth to a bowl and season it with cheese salt to taste. You can garnish with fresh herbs, peppercorns, or form a traditional log. To shape into a log, simply place on a clean smooth surface and begin to roll out gently, like a Play-Doh snake.

Hi all,
I had my meningiuma removed on July 26th and there has been many issues since then. I had been on
PANTOPRAZOLE, DEXAMETHAS, LEVETIRACETAM and LORAZPAM. From the day of surgery until September 10th when they finally decided tonstop all the medicationds, I wasn't getting more than 2-3 hours of sleep each night.
They just stopped the medication on September 10th and since then I have been sleeping through the night but I have been experiencing a very bad headache which basically starts in the morning OR when I am sleeping and it wakes me up and I am in pain all day. Did anyone have these headaches, too? Is it normal?
Also, I have been hearing a clicking noise coming from my head, is thia normal?
Also, my vision is affected by the surgery and I no longer can glance at a screen and see/read the whole thing at once. I see the left half and have to move my eyes and scan the right half to be able to see it. Has anyone had to deal with this issue?
Please help me, any help would be much appreciate it. My doctor is on vacation for the next two weeks and his assistant doesn't want to recommend anything until the doctor returns.
Thank you.

Unless you've been living under a rock for the past year (if you have, congrats! You made it back!) you've probably heard of a little genius of a film called Sharknado (playing this Friday, August 8 in the Wortham Giant Screen Theatre).
As the title implies, it's about sharks and tornadoes — more specifically, water spouts off the coast of southern California which wreak havoc on L.A. as they flood the city while simultaneously picking up and distributing ravenous airborne man-eating sharks — and a motley crew, including the one and only Tara Reid, who defies the terror of the sharks to save the day. It's a classic tale of guy meets girl, guy and girl fall in love, guy and girl get divorced, sharks attack, guy gets girl back.
Why Sharknado got snubbed at the Oscars, I'll never know.
Now I must admit I was a little apprehensive of the film when I first heard of it. As a child who saw Jaws too soon (also showing in the GST this month), as you may have been as well, you hear the word "SHARK" and feel something like this…
And who can blame you?! Negative images of sharks are everywhere. But they actually haven't been around for all that long. At the turn of the 20th century, most people believed that sharks had never attacked a human being. Now, we know that occasionally this does happen. There were 7 people who died from shark attacks in the world in 2012 (meaning your chance of being one of those people is literally less than one in a BILLION). Compare that to the 33,561 people who died in car accidents in the U.S. in 2012. So the early 20th century perception is actually closer to the truth than modern perceptions (most people believe their risk of getting eaten by a shark to be much, much higher).
So what happened?
In the summer of 1916 there was a horrifying case of a rogue great white shark that ate several people along the New Jersey coast, and the event received a lot of press. Then during WWII, stories of shipwrecked sailors and others stranded in the ocean getting eaten by sharks began to permeate popular culture. All of which helped to set the stage for Jaws to come along and scare the pants off America.
In this movie, Spielberg really hit a chord with American audiences; just think about how much this movie has seeped into our collective consciousness. Everything from the opening music, Baaa-da. Baaa-da. Ba-da ba-da. Ba-da-ba-da-badabada…, to the line (from the sequel's trailer, mind you) "Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water…" that sends shivers down our spines.
"So why should we watch Sharknado?" you ask, "Isn't this just perpetuating irrational fears about getting eaten by sharks?" Perhaps, but consider this: Sharknado presents the perfect way for us to get over our fear of sharks.
By taking this fear and placing it in the most ridiculous context ever, in a low budget B Movie, with a plot full of holes so big you could drive a truck through them, we can remove ourselves enough from the situation to have some perspective. When we watch Sharknado we can laugh at our fears while watching a rollicking, action-packed film full of spectacle and get swept away (pun intended) into this fantasy world.
Jaws took place in our backyard, Sharknado in some alternate universe where Tara Reid is still an ingénue.
When we leave the theatre we aren't scared of the world around us, we're too busy taking in the unabashed ridiculousness of the film, tweeting our friends all the way home.
So let's take a bite out of our crazy irrational fears and embrace Sharknado for the awesome cultural phenomenon that it is Friday, August 8 at HMNS!
In case you need some more convincing, watch the trailer below! Want to learn more about how awesome sharks are? Come to HMNS starting August 29 for our SHARK Exhibition!

States Cooling to Renewable Energy
Bills to Curb Requirements for Utilities Crop Up Nationwide, Generally in GOP-Led Legislatures
Legislatures in half the states that require electric utilities to buy renewable energy are considering proposals to roll back those mandates.
The policies have helped fuel a huge expansion of U.S. solar and wind capacity in recent years. Now debates are arising, especially in Republican-held statehouses, about whether they increase costs for customers.

LONGMONT — Circle Capital's 7½-year reign as Longmont's largest landlord has come to an end.
The company has sold the 1.13 million square feet of commercial space it owned in Longmont to Goff Capital Partners, a Fort Worth, Texas-based private equity firm, for $58.3 million.
The sale consists of 34 buildings scattered about the southwest part of Longmont. Tenants include Dot Hill Systems, Texas Instruments, nSpire and Synapse Design.
The properties are what had remained of the 2 million square feet that Circle Capital bought from Pratt Properties for $142 million in 2005.
Kory Cash, who had managed what Circle Capital called The Campus at Longmont, will join a new entity, Flatiron Property Management, that Goff has set up to oversee its new Longmont properties.
"Our expectation is (tenants) really won't notice a difference," Cash said Monday. "It's my staff, it's my team in Longmont."
The sale includes 2101 Ken Pratt Blvd., a two-story office building where Cash's office and staff are located.
"So there's a little bit of pure office (in the sale) but it's mostly flex space," Cash said.
The occupancy rate for the 1.13 million square feet is "in the mid-70" percent range, Cash said.
Circle Capital previously sold off several of the buildings it acquired when it bought the Pratt portfolio. That included the largest building that was part of that sale, the 450,000-square-foot former Maxtor building at 2452 Clover Basin Drive. It was sold to a New York-based investment group in 2006 for $60 million.
Goff Capital, which has a Colorado office in Centennial, has been aggressive about buying property in Boulder County. The company also owns the Diagonal Tech Center in Longmont, a 123,200-square-foot, two-building complex at 1625 and 1721 Fordham St.; and Flatiron Park in Boulder, a 19-building complex east of 55th Street between Arapahoe and Valmont roads.
Counting its purchase of The Campus at Longmont, Goff Capital now controls 55 properties totaling about 2 million square feet in Boulder County.
Conrad Suszynski, managing principal at Goff Capital, was traveling Monday and unavailable for comment.
In a press release announcing the purchase, he said, "We believe in the long-term economic and market fundamentals of Boulder County. Boulder County's highly educated work force and desirable quality of life supports the dynamic and entrepreneurial companies that are succeeding and expanding in today's economy."

That is why when Long Island City resident Aaron Popowsky found out about N-Hance Revolutionary Wood Renewal, he jumped at the opportunity to work with them.
Popowsky recently purchased the only N-Hance franchise in New York City. Being in the general contacting industry throughout his life, Popowsky feels like this is more an addition than an overhaul.
"I didn't want to change anything I was doing," he said. "I'm just adding to my arsenal."
N-Hance is a company that treats wood with a water-based polyurethane that is less messy and contains fewer toxins than the traditional petroleum-based varnish.
"I came across N-Hance Wood Renewal while in Home Depot," said Popowsky. "For me it was a bit of a turn on to see the N-Hance process.
He has always had aspirations of starting his own franchise, but wanted to first find a product to base his business around.
"This will offer my clients revolutionary technology," he said. "It's a light-speed instant wood cure finish."
Popowsky said in Western Queens there are numerous residents and owners of co-ops and townhouses that will need a cost-effective way to make the wood in their homes look new again.
"One of the big selling points is that N-Hance literally has the same effect of sanding down a floor," he said.
He purchased the franchise over the summer and will officially launch N-Hance Metro New York in October.
"There is no dust, no mess and no odor," Popowsky said. "The industry has never seen anything like this."

We receive many blessings because of the restoration of the Aaronic Priesthood. Share how it has blessed you by clicking on Share your experience at the bottom of the article.
An occasion of special significance to Latter-day Saint teenagers occurred on May 15, 1829. On that day, near Harmony, Pennsylvania, John the Baptist appeared to Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery and bestowed on them the Aaronic Priesthood.
The restoration of the Aaronic Priesthood was the answer to a question Joseph and Oliver had about baptism. They went out into the woods and knelt down, asking Heavenly Father for greater understanding. John the Baptist came and ordained them, saying, "Upon you my fellow servants, in the name of Messiah, I confer the Priesthood of Aaron, which holds the keys of the ministering of angels, and of the gospel of repentance, and of baptism by immersion for the remission of sins" (JS—H 1:69; see also D&C 13).
Here are some ways that all of God's children are blessed by having the Aaronic Priesthood on the earth.
The Aaronic Priesthood holds "the keys … of the gospel of repentance" (D&C 13:1). Bishop is an office in the Aaronic Priesthood. One of the bishop's responsibilities is to assist in the repentance process. The Aaronic Priesthood also opens the door to a remission of sins through baptism and the sacrament.
Baptism is an ordinance of the Aaronic Priesthood. Priests in the Aaronic Priesthood hold that authority. Baptism allows people to enter a covenant relationship with the Lord, receive a remission of their sins, and become members of Christ's Church.
After baptism, we have an opportunity to renew our covenants and receive a remission of our sins each week when we partake of the sacrament. The sacrament is prepared, blessed, and passed to members under the authority of the Aaronic Priesthood.
Ministering of Angels
The Aaronic Priesthood also holds "the keys of the ministering of angels." Because of repentance and the authority to baptize and provide the sacrament, the Aaronic Priesthood allows people to be cleansed from sin and be worthy to receive angelic ministrations. (For more on this topic, read "The Aaronic Priesthood and the Sacrament" by Elder Dallin H. Oaks.)
Helping the Poor and Needy
Another of the bishop's responsibilities is to care for the poor and needy. Young Aaronic Priesthood holders assist the bishop by collecting fast offerings, which the bishop uses to help those in need. Millions of people of different faiths and in many lands have been blessed by local bishops or by global humanitarian efforts directed by the Presiding Bishop of the Church.
Celebrating the Priesthood
This May, take time to share what the Aaronic Priesthood means to you by clicking on Share your experience below. You could tell about how the priesthood has blessed you, what you do to honor the priesthood, what you did to commemorate its restoration, or anything else you want to share. Consider also sharing these thoughts in your journal, with your family, or in your Sunday classes.

Australia 26-19 South Africa, Rugby Championship
Deans hails Wallabies' character
ESPN Staff
September 8, 2012
Australia's Will Genia cuts a forlorn figure at the end of the game © Getty Images
Australia coach Robbie Deans was quick to praise his side's character following their battling 26-19 victory over South Africa in their Rugby Championship clash in Perth.
Chasing their first win in the competition following back-to-back defeats to New Zealand, the hosts battled back from a 13-6 half-time deficit with tries from Scott Higginbotham and Ben Alexander and 16 points from the boot of centre Berrick Barnes carrying them to a much-needed victory.
South Africa had looked on course for their second win of the campaign and a move above Australia into second place in the IRB World Rankings thanks to a first half try from prolific winger Bryan Habana but they had little answer to the resurgent Wallabies after the break.
''They showed real character tonight,'' said Deans. ''In the second half, we were able to get the ball for longer periods and ran some good lines. We did enough to come from behind, and that doesn't happen lightly in Mandela Cup games.''
In contrast, South Africa coach Heyneke Meyer slammed his team's mental shortcomings. "It is all about handling pressure, being mentally tough and showing character," said the Boks boss.
"Test match rugby is not always about who plays the best, it is about who handles the pressure the best. To win away from home you have to have a great game-plan and execute it. I thought we executed the game-plan well for the first 60 minutes. I thought we put them under pressure but we had two soft moments in the game that cost us. But all credit to the Wallabies. They came back when it mattered. There was a huge improvement but I'm still not happy with our performance. We need to play better," he added.
The victory came at a cost for the Wallabies with captain Will Genia sidelined with what looked like a serious knee injury. Australia have already lost two skippers to injury this season with James Horwill and David Pocock both currently sidelined.
But it could not diminish the significance of the result for the scrum-half. ''Really, you have to credit the whole group,'' Genia said. ''We have a lot of pride and were desperate to win this match. We wanted to show what we can do, and in the second half we were able to play the type of football that we wanted to play.''

6 Comments on "About Me"
I'm really curious regarding the reason that you are showing up on FTDNA as a YDNA-37 match to me. (Elizabeth Lynch, Y-DNA37 FF Martin Haigney, 1828-1911 R-M269 8/22/2016) Is this actually your brother's, father's, uncle's result?
Ha, congratulations, you just dethroned the Champ !
Hey liz, you're on jeopardy right now… genealogist caught my eye … me too ! The Quaker (Society of Friends), my Mothers (Rockhill's -1400's) side of the Family came in with William Penn's ' boatloads' and settled the Burlington NJ area(s) 1680's… oh well, long short, I was kicking around the idea of Geno DNA but (fiscally prudent) am suspicious that the results are nothing more than a map of geographical beginnings (duh!) and not actually a connection to my pesky 3rd Great Grand Parents' Parental beginnings (envision a car being driven by a pecan) – names, places and faces – just the facts …. ok, that was fun, hope you enjoyed it as much as me 🙂 – btw, you're leading Jeopardy right now….
Hey Liz,
Recently I received by FTDNA Y-111 DNA markers results.
Your husband and I both descend from William Lynch of Brunswick, VA.
The results said I am R-L226, or Irish Type 3.

Mom, this one's for you. If you're a coconut lover, this one's also for you.
I've always been coconut crazy. I keep a big bag of flaked coconut in my fridge to sprinkle on my yogurt, steep in my tea, or snack on with chocolate chips. I think I like it so much because the creamy coconut flavor reminds me of relaxing on a tropical island.
As I mentioned before, my family goes on vacation to Hawaii often. My trip is never complete without drinking some fresh coconut milk out of a young coconut and eating the sweet and delicious flesh. My Hawaiian trips would also be incomplete without a couple Piña Coladas. I don't know what it is about coconut and rum—it is just a match made in heaven!
I wanted to create a cookie that captures this island flavor. It took me a few batches (special thanks to all my guinea pigs!), but I gotta say, I think I nailed this one. To preserve the integrity of the rum, I let the coconut flakes soak in a generous amount of rum for a couple minutes before adding other ingredients. The dried coconut flakes rehydrate, so when you bite into the cookie, it leaves you with the warm, rum flavor lingering on the back of your tongue. That being said, do NOT skimp on quality—use a good quality aged rum, which you would enjoy sipping.
Ingredients (one dozen cookies)
1¼ cup Flaked Coconut
½ cup Shredded Coconut
½ cup Sugar (I usually lowball this)
¼ cup Aged Rum (Appleton 12 Year or Flor de Cana 7 Year work great)
1 Egg White
2 tbs. Flour
½ tsp. Vanilla Extract
¼ tsp. Kosher Salt
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
Combine flaked coconut and rum in a medium sized bowl. Toss the coconut until the majority of the rum is absorbed. Mix in the shredded coconut and flour.
In a separate bowl, beat one egg white with vanilla extract. Add the sugar and salt, and beat until smooth. Pour the egg mixture into the bowl with the coconut and mix well.
Line baking pans with parchment paper and drop on spoonfuls of batter. Bake for 16-18 minutes, until golden brown. Let them rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.

Named scholarships
When it comes to earning a college degree, the greatest obstacle can be funding.
For this reason, The University of Akron is pleased for the opportunity each year to assist talented, deserving students achieve their dreams, thanks to more than 1,300 named scholarships established through the kindness and generosity of thousands of UA alumni and friends, corporations, and foundations.
Scholarships truly are the best way to ensure that today's students persist to graduation. Scholarships allow students to enroll full time and remain focused on their studies; they also reduce drop-out rates, decrease the stress of student loans, and shorten the road to graduation.
The need for scholarships grows each year, however, as students continue to face an increased financial burden in pursuit of a college degree. In fact, 94 percent of today's baccalaureate students borrow to pay for college – versus just 45 percent in 1993. Across the country, the average college-related debt for borrowers in the class of 2016 was $37,172; for Ohio students, that figure was $30,239.
If you are interested in making a significant contribution to student success, please consider a gift to the MAKING A DIFFERENCE AND MOVING FORWARD scholarship campaign, which is the University's most important initiative. You may also establish a named scholarship at The University of Akron, which can be created to honor a living person, in memory of a loved one, or to contribute to the growth of an area of study.
To learn more, please contact the Department of Development at 330-972-7238.
How do I apply for a scholarship?
This is not the page to apply for scholarships.
Students who want to apply for scholarships should visit the scholarship page on the Financial Aid site.
The Department of Development does not accept applications for or distribute scholarships. Scholarships are distributed through the University's Office of Student Financial Aid.

Landscape for Learning Green Space Fund for Benches
The Landscape for Learning Green Space Fund for Benches has been developed to provide opportunities for alumni and friends of The University of Akron to participate and leave their mark on the exciting transformation of the campus landscape. With support from private donors, the University will achieve a park-like, pedestrian-friendly, and tranquil setting that is suited for learning and study.
With a gift of $1,000 (payable over three years), a bench will be placed on campus. Placement of the benches will be coordinated as construction activities permit. This fund also will support the dissemination of promotional materials to educate the public about the green space campaign.

Pepperoni Pizza Mac and Cheese
Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! We are enjoying our family this week, definitely my favorite time of year 🙂
I love making new mac and cheese recipes. This fun spin on pepperoni pizza is absolutely a treat inside my homemade mac and cheese. How can you go wrong with extra cheese and pepperoni? This is a great weeknight meal or perfect for Sunday dinner with a nice side salad.
Give this one a try, it does not disappoint 🙂
Let's take a look.
Here are your ingredients. Pretty basic!
I used a small rigatoni, but use whatever small pasta you'd like.
Rinse your pasta with cold water to stop the cooking 🙂
Saute those onions in some olive oil.
You'll add some lovely chopped bell pepper.
Take some pepperoni's and slice them in half.
Add them to the pot and give a good stir.
Let's make the cheese sauce for the mac. Melt 1 stick of butter in a large pot.
Whisk in your flour, salt, pepper and garlic salt.
Slowly whisk in your milk until nice and thick.
Stir in your cheese until nice and smooth.
Add your cooked pasta and pepperoni mixture to the cheese sauce.
If you like black olives, add those too, otherwise leave them out.
Give a good stir, taste and season with additional seasonings if needed.
Transfer half of the mac into baking dish and spoon marinara sauce over top.
Top with remaining mac and cheese.
Top with more cheese and time to bake!
Pepperoni Pizza Mac and Cheese
- 1 pound box small dry pasta
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 1/2 cups finely chopped onion
- 1 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 2 cups halved pepperoni slices
- 15 ounce can black olives, drained (optional)
- 1 stick/8 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup all-purpose Gold Medal Flour
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
- 3 cups milk (I used skim)
- 1 1/2 cups pasta sauce (I used skim)
- 4 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and spray a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Cook pasta according to package directions, drain and set aside.
- Heat oil in large 5 quart dutch oven over medium heat. Add onions and bell pepper, cooking and stirring for 5 minutes or until softened. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in pepperoni and olives. In a separate large dutch oven or pot melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour, salt pepper and garlic salt until thick. Slowly whisk in milk. Increase heat to medium high stirring until nice and thick. Once sauce is thickened, reduce heat to low. Stir in 3 cups of cheese then stir in cooked pasta and pepperoni mixture. Add splashes of milk to thin out cheese sauce to your liking. I added about 1/2 cup. Transfer half of the mac and cheese to prepared baking dish and top with remaining marinara sauce. Top with remaining mac and cheese then remaining 1 cup cheese. Bake for 25-30 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly. Remove from oven and serve.

This is my kinda food! Love the olives in it too 🙂
[…] Pepperoni Pizza Mac 'n' Cheese – There are so many variations on mac 'n' cheese and while I enjoy the fancy gourmet type, I'm very partial to "kid food." I bet my Little Ones will love this dish from Picky Palate. […]
This turned out perfect! I cut it in half my husband loved it! Thank you! I just started a food blog and I would love for you to check it out and let me know your feedback! http://www.apinchofluv.com thank you!
Okay, I made this the other night and I have to comment and tell you that it was WONDERFUL! My husband is a picky eater but he even loved it. I did omit the olives since no one in the house is a fan and I did half mozz/cheddar instead of just the cheddar. Thanks for posting this recipe!
Hi! I tried this recipe today and it was the best mac n cheese I've ever had! The children loved it too! It was absolutely delicious 🙂

LODI - John and Terri Vanderheiden, after nearly 14 years of aching to bring home the remains of their murdered daughter, Cyndi, held a funeral Saturday at long last laying her to rest in a cemetery near their Clements home.
LODI - John and Terri Vanderheiden, after nearly 14 years of aching to bring home the remains of their murdered daughter, Cyndi, held a funeral Saturday at long last laying her to rest in a cemetery near their Clements home.
Vanderheiden, 25, vanished Nov. 14, 1998, launching hundreds of searches. On Feb. 9, investigators recovered her remains from a shallow grave in a Calaveras County ravine, led by the letters of serial killer Wesley Shermantine, who placed her there.
But there was no mention Saturday of Shermantine or Loren Herzog, his boyhood friend from Linden, who confessed to watching Shermantine murder her and other victims in a 15-year killing spree.
Rather, Rev. Gary Standish in the memorial service at Lodi's First Baptist Church celebrated Vanderheiden as a small-town girl who had her father's looks and mother's personality.
"She would light up any room," Standish said. "She was somebody you wanted to be around all the time."
About 200 relatives and friends lined up before and after the memorial to embrace Vanderheiden's parents and older sister, Kim Lovejoy. Lovejoy and her family traveled from their home in Wyoming for the memorial.
Vanderheiden was also remembered as an animal lover who above all adored her fluffy white cat, Topaz. The cat waited for her return and died only recently when Cindy Vanderheiden's remains were brought home.
"Now, they both can be at peace with each other again," Standish said. "Topaz waited many years to be with Cyndi again."
A slideshow that played during the memorial depicted Vanderheiden holding her beloved cat. Other photos showed her growing up over the years with her sister. They were shown with the Easter bunny and sitting on Santa's lap.
One picture showed the Vanderheiden sisters as girls wearing matching Hawaiian grass skirts. In another, Cyndi Vanderheiden posed in her softball uniform holding a bat.
In one, she smiled big wearing her high school cheerleader uniform.
At the memorial's end, her parents and sister stood and with shaky voices thanked everybody for attending the memorial and supporting them over the difficult years.
"I want to thank everybody for all the hugs," said Terri Vanderheiden, standing between her oldest daughter and husband.
It was Cyndi Vanderheiden's disappearance that brought a halt to Shermantine and Herzog's drug-fueled killing spree. They were arrested in 1999, shortly after she went missing. The duo is believed to be responsible for at least five murders and possibly as many 20.
Late last year, Shermantine began to write letters to The Record offering to reveal victims' burial locations for money. Sacramento bounty hunter Leonard Padilla, who also attended the memorial, met the killer's challenge.
Herzog hanged himself Jan. 16 while on parole in Lassen County as Shermantine began to communicate but before any of the discoveries were made.
San Joaquin and Calaveras county deputies scouring remote hills found Vanderheiden's remains first, and the next day those of Chevelle "Chevy" Wheeler, 16, who vanished Oct. 7, 1985, after playing hooky from school with Shermantine.
An excavated well on Flood Road east of Linden next revealed the remains of JoAnn Hobson, 16, who went missing in 1985; Kimberly Billy, 19, who disappeared in 1984; and a third victim who has yet to be identified.
Following Saturday's church service, a smaller group accompanied John and Terri Vanderheiden to their daughter's final resting place at the Glenview Cemetery in Clements. The cemetery is about a mile's drive from her parent's home, where she last lived.
With Terri at his side, John carried a wooden box holding their daughter's cremated remains to the burial site and placed it under the shade of old trees.
"It's been a long journey," Rev. Standish said, also reading a Bible scripture. "We've finally reached that final destination."
The Vanderheiden's, their older daughter and her children next stepped to a clearing in the trees at the cemetery, each holding the string of a yellow balloon, Cyndi's favorite color.
Together, they released the balloons and watched as the cluster of yellow drifted away into the sky.

Add The Home Depot to the list of companies dumping part-time employees onto ObamaCare's insurance exchanges — and taxpayers' backs. According to the Daily Caller, the Georgia-based retailer announced that it is dropping health coverage for approximately 20,000 part-timers as a direct result of the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
"Unfortunately, the ACA precludes us from offering the limited liability medical plan we've been offering the part-time associates," Home Depot's director of corporate communications, Stephen Holmes, told the conservative website.
Like many other companies, Home Depot currently offers a low-cost health plan with limited benefits to its part-time employees. Such plans, however, are prohibited under ObamaCare, which requires employers to offer unlimited coverage with numerous mandated benefits and shoulder most of the cost of that coverage. In addition, the ACA requires employers to offer such coverage to all employees working at least 30 hours per week. Thus, the law simultaneously bans plans that both employers and employees could afford and forces employers to cover more people at a higher cost, giving them a great incentive to cover only those employees they absolutely must.
Those Americans who lose employer-based coverage are not permitted simply to go without insurance, however. The ACA mandates that individuals who do not have coverage through their employers purchase it on a government-run insurance exchange, which "requires people to buy insurance for a government-designed set of health-care services, including services promoted by corporate lobbies," notes the Daily Caller. "The insurance packages can be more expensive than sought by workers, especially younger workers, but the extra costs are partially offset by subsidies from other taxpayers."
With Home Depot's announcement, taxpayers will now be burdened with subsidizing coverage for an additional 20,000 or so people. (The company declined to state an exact figure.) This is on top of the thousands of others being dumped onto the exchanges by employers such as Wegmans supermarkets and Universal Studios Orlando. Other companies, such as Walmart, are refusing to cover new part-time workers, while still others are restricting employees' hours to avoid having to cover them at great expense. These individuals, too, will be seeking out subsidized coverage next year.
This trend cannot be a good thing, the Daily Caller observes:
The accelerating shift of workers to Obama's taxpayer-funded network will likely drive up costs to taxpayers, disadvantage companies that try to pay for their employees' health-care and make more voters dependent on health-care decisions made by Democratic officials and legislators.
The switch is also making a mockery of Obama's promise that Americans would be able to keep their pre-Obamacare insurance if they prefer.
"If you like your health care plan, you'll be able to keep your health care plan, period. No one will take it away, no matter what," he said in June 2009.
Other companies are not yet dropping coverage altogether but are taking other cost-cutting measures in anticipation of ObamaCare's implementation. Illinois-based Walgreens, for example, just announced that it will no longer be offering health insurance to its 160,000 eligible employees in the traditional fashion. Instead, the company will make a flat contribution toward each employee's purchase of insurance in a private exchange. The exchange will offer the employee a choice of plans from several different insurers. The employee will then be responsible for making up the difference between the premium for the plan he selects and the amount contributed by his employer — an amount not guaranteed to rise as fast as the premium in subsequent years.
According to Forbes, Walgreens is the 18th large employer in the country to adopt the private-exchange model. Companies are switching to this approach to help limit their share of ever-rising healthcare costs. While healthcare inflation long predates the ACA, Hot Air's Ed Morrissey points out, "If employers like Walgreens expected ObamaCare to actually control costs, they wouldn't be dumping employee coverage."
Companies are, in fact, expecting the ACA's mandates to drive costs even higher — another good reason to get out of the business of insuring their employees. "Aside from rising health-care costs," writes the Wall Street Journal, "[Walgreens] cited compliance-related expenses associated with the new law as a reason for the switch."
Businesses aren't alone in foreseeing higher healthcare costs under ObamaCare. In its most recent forecast, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) projected that federal healthcare spending would grow by 74 percent over the next 25 years. But considering that by the end of its first 25 years Medicare was nine times as expensive as originally projected, there is an excellent chance that the CBO is vastly underestimating how fast healthcare costs will increase over the next quarter century, especially with the advent of ObamaCare.
Shifting employees to private or public exchanges, therefore, would appear to be the wave of the future. No matter which exchange employers choose, someone — either the employee or the taxpayer — is probably going to pay more and get less. And in keeping with Ron Paul's dictum that a law will accomplish the exact opposite of that which its name implies, that is precisely what one would expect from the Affordable Care Act.

Gosling has no complaints
Dan Gosling is prepared to wait in order to gain regular first-team recognition at Newcastle.
The 21-year-old has made only six appearances for the Magpies since joining from Everton in 2010, owing to frequent injury.
Despite now being fighting fit once more, Gosling finds himself behind Yohan Cabaye, Cheick Tioté, Danny Guthrie and Hatem Ben Arfa in Alan Pardew's selection order.
Gosling does, though, realise he is unlikely to be able to disrupt a, so far, successful midfield, as the Toon sit third in the the Barclays Premier League.
The England under-21 international is, however, patiently awaiting an opportunity - something he will make the most of when given.
"There's a long time [to go] in my career," said Gosling.
"There are internationals here who are playing ahead of me and we sit third in the table at the minute, so the gaffer has obviously been reluctant to change the team, and quite rightly so.
"There has just been no way in, really, so you just keep working hard on the training field and pushing each other and when the chance comes, you've got to be prepared and ready."News Now - Sport News

Set up more checklists in the screen builder or compare the expert models below...
This ratio measures the sustainability of the debt structure based on available free cash flow.
Enterprise Value to Free Cash Flow compares the total valuation of the company with its ability to generate cashflow. It is the inverse of the Free Cash Flow Yield. The lower the ratio of enterprise value to the free cash flow figures, the faster a company can pay back the cost of its acquisition or generate cash to reinvest in its business.
FCF is calculated on a TTM basis.
Enterprise value is arguably a more accurate measure of the value of a firm, as it includes the debt, value of preferred shares and minority interest, but minus cash and cash equivalents.
Free Cash Flow is calculated from the Statement of Cash Flows as Cash From Operations minus Capital Expenditures. Unlike earnings, it omits purely paper only "expenses".
Free Cash Flow per share should be compared with Earnings per Share in order to understand whether a company is able to turn its earnings into cash or not! Ultimately every company needs to make cash to survive and without free cash flow a company will have to go begging to shareholders or resort to borrowing. The best companies are 'cash machines' - you should look for companies that make more free cashflow than earnings.
N.B. Cashflow can be very 'lumpy' as capital expenditures are not consistent from year to year. Also growing companies may have to invest heavily ahead of cashflow to keep up with demand.
