What are the Five Spices in Five Spice Powder?
- Cinnamon
- Fennel
- Cloves
- Star Anise
- White Pepper
However, much to my shock and awe, I learned that five spice powder actually has nothing to do with the number of spices!
If Five Spice Powder Isn't About Five Spices, What is it About?
According to the fabulous food blogger Chez Pim:
The "five" in Five Spice actually refers to the balance of five basic elements: earth, fire, water, air, and metal. The Five Spice powder was originally used in Chinese medicine to restore the balance of the five elements in the Chi or the life energy in our bodies. So, besides the five basic spices, Five Spice powder may contain other spices such as coriander seeds, cumin or anise seeds (instead of fennel seeds), black or green cardamom, and even nutmeg.
Also on Chez Pim, there is a recipe to make your own five spice powder and I must admit that I am now feeling like a bit of a slacker for not making my own.
Why Five Spice Frosting?
The five spice frosting was inspired by pork. Pork inspires all kinds of people to do all kinds of things. I've already been inspired by pork once before – remember the bacon cheddar frosting? This time, I didn't put any pork in the frosting. I just used the five spice powder, a prominent element of the rhubarb pulled pork that I made for Taste & Create.
How Did Five Spice Frosting Taste?
The five spice frosting was mellow and tasted like Fall. I suppose it wasn't the best choice for a summer cupcake, but sometimes it's nice to have Fall flavors in the Summer, too. It would go really well on most Fall cupcakes and especially well on rhubarb cupcakes.
Five Spice Frosting Recipe
Five Spice Powder Frosting Recipe
- 1/4 C 1/2 stick butter, room temperature
- 8 oz cream cheese room temperature
- 3 C powdered sugar sifted
- 2 t five spice powder
- 1 t vanilla extract
- Beat the butter and cream cheese until combined.
- Slowly add the powdered sugar and beat until creamy.
- Add the five spice powder and vanilla extract.
A Question for You
I like doing posts specifically about frosting. It's especially useful if I use the same frosting on more than one cupcake. However, frosting doesn't look that great when it isn't frosting something. There are only so many "frosting on the spatula" or "frosting in the beaters" photos I can see before getting bored with them. Anyone have any ideas?

Parents, pediatricians, and other health care professionals are encouraged to work together so that all of the medical and nonmedical needs of children and youth are met. This partnership is at the core of what the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) calls the medical home. Medical home is an approach primary care practices can use to provide comprehensive and compassionate care. This approach helps coordinate the medical care and other services your child needs into an integrated overall plan for your child's health. Because of the effectiveness of this approach and the benefits that patients receive under this care model, the AAP and other medical organizations have endorsed the medical home as an important part of caring for individuals with lifelong conditions. It is important for families and clinicians to feel like they have a constructive partnership for the care of the child.
Studies have shown that the presence of a family-centered medical home leads to more effective treatment of conditions. In a family-centered medical home, the pediatrician maintains patterns of communication with the family that help ensure routine care is achieved, such as immunizations and other preventive activities.
Many children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) see a variety of specialists, such as developmental and behavioral pediatricians, neurologists, and gastroenterologists, to manage certain medical conditions. Your child's pediatrician and these specialists can provide your child with the best and most efficient care when they communicate with each other and are able to have their recommendations integrated into an overall plan for your child's health and wellness. A medical home can help provide this support.
Families are also more likely to be effectively connected with community agencies and services and receive more support from such agencies as well as from other families in similar situations. Children are more likely to receive services and treatments that the pediatrician or specialty practitioner has recommended.
The medical home primary care practice team plays an important role in the child and family's life and will work together with parents to create a written care plan for each child. A care plan includes the child's treatment plan, which is made up of educational services, therapies, medical issues, family supports, and emergency crisis plans. A care plan is not a substitute for the treatment plans developed by your child's school, speech therapist, or other involved professionals or agencies. A care plan includes all of these aspects of your child's care and identifies ways in which clinicians and agencies can work together on common goals. While a care plan cannot guarantee that every issue will receive all treatment or support needed, it does help ensure all of your child's needs are identified and addressed as much as possible.
Care notebooks can be used to track your child's ongoing care and services—who was seen for what purpose and when, and so on. They also are valuable in helping families communicate with various doctors by serving as a ready place to write down questions or concerns to bring up with a doctor, or information to transmit from one doctor to another. It is recommended that families bring their child's care notebook with them to all appointments and on all trips to keep doctors up to date as well as to have information available in case of emergency.
There are many different ways to develop your child's care notebook (see Resources).
Visits to your child's medical home may take a little longer to identify and address all the issues pertinent to your child and family situation. Parents and the medical home care team should schedule appointments that are long enough to discuss all of their concerns. You need to let the office know that you have additional questions so they can schedule enough time. Bringing toys, snacks, or another adult to appointments is often very helpful. Parents know their child best and over time, they often become experts concerning their child's disability. Parental knowledge and opinions are recognized and respected in the medical home. Parents are encouraged to seek information, ask questions, and trust in their intuition.

Last monday, BuildBrighton (my local hackspace) along with Playgroup (Brighton arts and events collective), ran "Noise Toys"… a day of making noisy gadgets in a local pub, anyone welcome – as part of the Brighton festival fringe.
At BB we were intending to provide a selection of "sound sculptures" around the place, but in the end we only managed a couple, which included my Lava-Lamp modulated synthesiser and an "interactive solenoid percussion" thing, which I'll give you the low-down on here
My idea was to have some MIDI triggered solenoid percussion (similar to http://hotchk155.blogspot.com/2010/10/solenoid-drum-machine.html) together with some kind of control surface to allow passing punters to control the solenoids and make little tunes and rhythms.
I thought it would be fun to use my Novation Launchpad to control the solenoids.
The Launchpad is a grid of illuminated buttons that is intended as a controller for Ableton Live (music app), but like most things it can be hacked 🙂
A while back I made a little Windows-based program to run a "rain storm" sequencer on the Launchpad (as seen on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgMDTJce9D8). Basically this was a simple step sequencer where notes are triggered by pressing buttons on the Launchpad and they "fall" – only sounding when they hit the bottom of grid. Pressing buttons on the lower row toggles them between Green (notes in the column are played then cycled back to top of grid) and Red (note plays once and does not cycle)
To add to the challenge (and because I needed the laptop to run Reason for the Lava Lamps) I thought it would be nice to be able to run the rain storm sequencer without the computer….
The Launchpad is a USB device (it doesn't have 5-pin MIDI connectors) so something would be needed to work as a "USB host" to allow a program running on a microcontroller (Arduino, PIC etc) to listen out for button presses and to control the Launchpad lights while sending out MIDI notes to trigger the solenoids.
I'd thought about making my Launchpad into a standalone MIDI controller before, and I had been looking at the FTDI VNC2 USB host chip (more about that later) but first of all I decided to try out the Sure Electronics USB HID Host Module which is based around a PIC and is a little short of £10 on eBay including the postage.
Sure's board is a nice little module, with 0.1" headers for the PICKit programmer and for serial comms with other application hardware. It also has a USB Type-A (host) socket and couple of addressable LED's. The on-board PIC24FJ256GB110 supports "USB On the go" (OTG) which means it can act as a USB host. Sure's web-site has downloadable source code for a firmware app, based Microchip's own open-source USB host stack, that will host a standard USB mouse or keyboard.
The only disappointment here is that only a minimal set of I/Os from the PIC are bought out through the headers which limits applications of the board since most of the PICs I/Os are inaccessible. Still, its a nice handy board and reasonably priced. But will it work with the Launchpad?
The Launchpad is not a standard USB MIDI or HID device. Rather it has a custom interface using two interrupt endpoints. This can be accommodated on the PIC with a couple of mods to the "Generic" device driver code from Microchips stack. It was my first time working with USB hosting and with 16-bit PICs so it was a learning experience.
When used under Windows via the Novation drivers, the Launchpad shows up as a MIDI device and is controlled by sending it MIDI note and controller info to toggle the LEDs. When Launchpad's buttons are pressed, it spits out MIDI notes/controllers which an application can act on.
So that the MIDI interface from Windows but exactly is happening on the USB wire? Well, a quick bit of trace code on the PIC showed that exactly the same MIDI bytes are being passed between the USB endpoints, making it nice and easy to drive the Launchpad from an embedded USB host like the PIC. Thankyou, Novation!
So on to the Rainstorm sequencer program, which I wanted to run on the same PIC. The sequencer code itself is pretty simple, but there are some complications when using Microchip's USB host stack which meant it took a while to get it working….
The main gotcha for me was that USB I/O operations need to be first initiated then polled for completion (or they can send completion events). However, to keep the stack ticking, the app must poll it via a "USBTasks" function. Without this polling, the stack does nothing and I/O will not complete. Ok, so just call USBTasks all over the place right? No sireeee, not if you don't want to end up in a confusing re-entrant mess and watch the PIC collapse in a heap.
In fact you need to be careful not to make USBTasks call anywhere but the top level loop, and to make sure that the application attempts just one USB I/O operation between USBTasks calls. One result of this is that long sequences of USB I/Os can become painfully slow to complete. With the Rainstorm sequencer I found that it became very sluggish at responding to input when there were more than a couple of dozen notes in play.
I am looking forward to trying this on the FTDI VNC2 chip which has the USB stack and application running in separate threads and should be able to get much better throughput.
OK – back to the fun and games! So the UART from the PIC is broken out to the header on the Sure Electronics board, and with the code changed to set up the correct MIDI baud rate and remove all other UART debug output from the code I could just stick on a 5-pin DIN socket via a couple of 220R resistors and I was sending MIDI.
On the other end of the MIDI connection I had a breadboard with a PIC16F688 receiving MIDI through a 6N138 isolator and triggering 8 digital outputs (each mapped to a MIDI note from the sequencer). Each output goes through a 1K resistor to a TIP120 NPN power transistor which directly drives a solenoid. The solenoids need about 18 volts to work properly so there's a 7805 and smoothing caps between the 18V side and the 5V logic side. I also had a hefty cap (2200uF) smoothing the 18V side since the solenoids can cause some big voltage dips when they fire all at once and this can reset the PIC. The schematic is available here
Once all the electronics was working it was time for the art… and unfortunately I didn't leave myself much time for that bit. I ended up gathering up milk bottles and hammering together a wooden frame for them to sit on, all the night before the gig. I had for some reason assumed that milk bottles, tuned with water, would make a pleasing "xylophone" effect… I hadn't really anticipated the the terrifying wall of machine gun clinking that they actually threw out.
Hmmm, well, there is always next time 🙂

The most important new name in video game criticism could be yours with the help of Kmart.
This month the national retailer kicked off an interesting experiment: Instead of looking to professional video game reviewers to help guide their customers to the best game to purchase, they're leaving the opinions up to a potentially massive pool of everyday gamers.
Starting last week Kmart started combing through the reviews of games written on their store's website by visitors, looking for descriptive snippets to print on small cards and display under the game in question on the shelves of their more than 1,300 stores.
"As Kmart continues to look for new and interesting ways to bridge our online and in-store experiences, providing on-shelf consumer reviews enables us to extend our service to highlight peer gaming insights while customers look to make purchases in-store," said Eddie Combs, CMO of Sears Holding Electronics.
Combs says the reviews, which have to be posted on Kmart.com by a registered user, will be selected based on several factors including how helpful they are, how well-written and if they would make sense to a non-gaming audience.
Kmart will post reviews for a mix of recently released titles and games that tend to remain popular over time, like Madden, Combs said.
The system has the potential to topple a long-held view that the opinion of a relative few professional critics is more important than the opinion of the typical gamer.
By placing the review directly under a game at the point where someone makes their decision, these peer reviewers become powerful opinion makers. But that doesn't mean they completely remove the need for professional reviewers.
"Professional reviews have their place in the meta-sphere without a doubt," said Andy McNamara, editor-in-chief of Game Informer magazine. "I still consider them to be a major driving force in gaming. Information is the most powerful tool a consumer can have, and they should get as much information as possible. This is why I believe that all reviews – both user and professional – help move video gaming forward. As the right games reach the right tastes and the sub-par games fall to the wayside, we make the video game industry a sleeker, more-skilled creative machine. I think people who play bad games consistently find other hobbies, so reviews play a key role in insuring that good games get in the hands of gamers."
And while the power of placement can give in-store peer reviews more punch, that won't last if Kmart isn't careful about how they select which excerpts to run.
"If the retailers are honest with their consumers, and post reviews that reflect their tastes, then I think the information is a powerful tool," McNamara said. "If every posted review is a 100-percent or A+, then i think it would defeat the purpose."
While Kmart won't be running scores, they are aware of the issue of only running positive comments. That doesn't mean, however, that you're going to see a reason not to buy a game on their store shelves. Instead, the retailer seems to be trying to find some middle ground.
To cut down on the potential abuse of their system, Kmart says they will try to avoid using reviews that say whether the game is actually good or bad, instead they will try to find snippets that talk about gameplay, graphics and story.
"We will post reviews that delve into the game experience, and aren't simply 'This game is good/This game is bad' posts," Combs said.
Kmart updated their posted policy on peer reviews to include this last point after I asked the retailer about potential abuse of the system. The policy shift, though, creates new problems. Steering clear of all negative reviews would be a disservice to everyone, but stripping away any true opinion from the reviews seems just as damaging.
While the notion of democratizing game criticism is tantalizing, I think consumers should be wary of placing their trust in a constantly changing flow of voices free of accountability.
The regularity of reviewers and the ability to judge their opinions over time against your own tastes is what makes a review meaningful. Stripping that away, boiling down a myriad of opinions about a game to a single paragraph transforms the end result from a bit of criticism into a bit of marketing.
Well Played is a weekly news and opinion column about the big stories of the week in the gaming industry and its bigger impact on things to come. Feel free to join in the discussion.

Brewers monitor Madson's comeback attempt
Righty trying to return from surgery, has not pitched in Majors since '11
MILWAUKEE -- The Brewers sent a scout to monitor former Phillies closer Ryan Madson's last throwing session but do not appear in hot pursuit of the right-hander, who is mounting a comeback.
Madson is a free agent and has not pitched in the Major Leagues since 2011. He signed with the Reds for 2012 but tore a ligament in his right elbow during Spring Training, underwent Tommy John surgery and missed the entire season. Madson signed with the Angels for 2013 but was not able to pitch for them, either.
As many as 50 scouts and officials crowded around an indoor batting cage in the Phoenix area last Friday to see Madson throw off a mound. He reached at least 91 mph, with some reports saying he touched 93 mph. Brewers general manager Doug Melvin said he dispatched special assistant Dick Groch as a matter of due diligence.
"We haven't discussed it at length much," Melvin said. "Out of curiosity we went to see him, but I haven't contacted his agent [Damon Lapa] since. There's a lot of workouts going on down here, a lot of players, and we'll go and watch someone when we can.
"He missed two complete years, that's the only thing right now. But he did throw fairly well. Whether he could be ready for Opening Day or not, I don't know."
A slew of clubs were on hand to see Madson throw, and one scout said it appeared the Tigers, Phillies and Blue Jays were showing the most interest.
The Brewers re-signed free agent reliever Francisco Rodriguez the same day Groch monitored Madson, and currently have closer Jim Henderson pegged for the ninth inning and Rodriguez and Brandon Kintzler for the eighth.
If Madson is holding out for a Major League contract, Milwaukee's 40-man roster is full.

He hit Donald Driver, all right -- with a snowball.
Favre frolicked in the flurries the entire afternoon, throwing three touchdown passes as the Green Bay Packers beat the Seattle Seahawks 42-20 Saturday to reach the NFC championship game.
"I've been hoping for that for 17 years," Favre said. "I was watching the weather all day and it's a shame, I'm like, 'Just give us one of those big snow games.'"
"I wanted to play where you couldn't see the field, and the snowplow comes out. It keeps getting worse and worse," he said.
With Lambeau Field looking like a snow globe, the Packers posted their biggest point total in postseason history.
This was exactly the scene Favre imagined when he decided to postpone retirement and try for another Super Bowl ring.
"It does make you appreciate it," the 38-year-old three-time NFL MVP said. "We could be 3-13 next year. Who knows? So enjoy it and try to get the most out of it."
In the months ahead, Wisconsin might again become a winter wonder-land -- will Favre come back again? -- but for now, Cheeseheads are guaranteed at least one more game.
The Packers (14-3) will take on the winner of Sunday's matchup between the New York Giants and Dallas. If the Cowboys win, they'll host Green Bay; if the Giants win, they'll visit Lambeau.
Green Bay beat the Giants this season and lost to the Cowboys. Favre would certainly prefer to stay home -- he's 0-9 lifetime at Dallas.
"We haven't had a whole lot of success in Dallas and I'm well aware of that," Favre said.
The Packers were happy to advance at all after a rough start.
Ryan Grant recovered from two fumbles that put the Packers down 14-0 after only four minutes. He set a team postseason record by running for 201 yards, and scored three times. After its early slips, Green Bay scored touchdowns on six straight possessions.
"I appreciate everyone sticking with it, staying with me," Grant said.
The Packers reached the NFC title game for the first time since the 1997 season, and the largest crowd ever at Lambeau partied. Favre and Driver started the celebration early, tossing snowballs at each other near the sideline in the closing minutes.
"When I kind of packed it up and threw it, it got kind of hard, like a golf ball. So I kind of threw it at his back or his butt or something. I'm thinking, 'You don't want to puncture an eye or something,'" Favre said.
"He turns around, packs one and hits me in the face. Good thing it hit my face mask, it might have hit my tooth or something," he said.
Favre tied his personal best for TD strikes in a postseason game. He also extended his own record by throwing a touchdown pass in his 17th straight postseason game, twice hitting Greg Jennings for scores.
But Favre's most memorable effort was a crazy toss to Donald Lee right before halftime.
On third-and-8, Favre somehow spun free from the Seahawks' clutches and stumbled ahead in the snow. Ever the gambler, he flipped a wobbly, underhanded pass that he had no business trying, let alone completing.
"That's right!" Favre shouted.
On the next play, Grant followed with a 3-yard burst and it 28-17 a scant 26 seconds before the break.
"Just gave him the old, usual, underhand toss. We practice that play all the time," Favre cracked. "Boy, what a backbreaker."
Matt Hasselbeck and the Seahawks (11-7) hoped to reverse what happened the last time they were in town for the playoffs. In January 2004, the teams went to overtime and, after winning the coin toss, Hasselbeck boldly proclaimed: "We want the ball and we're going to score!"
It didn't quite work out that way as Al Harris soon intercepted Hasselbeck's pass and returned it for a 52-yard TD. In fact, a picture of the play is posted right outside the Packers' locker room.
Coming off their 35-14 win over Washington last week in the wild-card round, the Seahawks seemed primed for an upset.
"Great start," Hasselbeck said. "But that's just the start of the game. You've got to finish it."
On Green Bay's first play, Grant caught a pass and fumbled. Then on Seattle's first play, Shaun Alexander plunged in from the 1.
Grant didn't do any better a minute later, when another fumble set up Hasselbeck's 11-yard TD strike to Bobby Engram.
"I thought, 'Oh boy, this ain't too good,'" Favre said. "This is the exact game I didn't want to be in."
At that point, it seemed as if only a Lambeau leap of faith would bring back Green Bay. But when the snow started to pile up, so did the points for the Packers.
Favre joined Joe Montana as the lone players to pass for more than 5,000 yards in the postseason. Earlier this week, Favre admitted he was disappointed that he hadn't performed better in some playoff games -- in fact, he had lost four of his previous five, throwing 13 interceptions in that span.
Coach Mike McCarthy won in his first postseason game, leading the NFL's youngest team to the next round.
The Seahawks fell to 0-8 in postseason road games since their only win, in 1983 when they beat Dan Marino and Miami in the AFC playoffs. The losing streak includes a loss in the Super Bowl two years ago.
It remains to be seen whether Seattle coach Mike Holmgren will return. At 59, the man who once guided Favre and the Packers to the Super Bowl title has recently dropped hints he might retire.
If he does, his final game will have come just a block or two from Holmgren Way, the street the city named in his honor.
Green Bay played its first postseason game in three seasons and it was classicly Lambeau.
During a coach's challenge in the first quarter, sweepers ran out to clear the yardlines. That eventually became futile, and a snowplow tried to do the job.
"That's kind of what you grow up doing. There's a snowstorm, there's no school, you're out there in the front yard playing with your best friends," Hasselbeck said.
Notes:@ Favre improved to 43-5 at Green Bay when the gametime temperature was 34 degrees or colder. It was 31 at kickoff. ... Grant lost one fumble all season before giving it away twice in the first 70 seconds. ... Former Super Bowl MVP Deion Branch's return to the field lasted only a few plays for Seattle. He hurt his left knee and did not return. "It's a pretty good injury," Holmgren said. Branch had not played since Dec. 26 because of a strained right calf.

Browns Canyon National Monument gets thumbs up from community
Colorado Sen. Mark Udall has released a detailed legislative proposal to establish Browns Canyon National Monument and Wilderness Area. The latest step in a yearlong public-engagement process, Udall's proposal reflects feedback from dozens of stakeholders, including business owners, sportsmen, elected officials and recreational groups.
"My business livelihood and quality of life both depend on the protection of Browns Canyon," said Christian Campton, owner of KODI Rafting in Frisco. "I personally appreciate Sen. Udall's efforts to ensure the national monument will continue to allow rafting, fishing, hunting and other economic drivers while helping us attract new visitors to experience what makes this area so unique."
Protection of places like Browns Canyon as a national monument positively affects the economic health of river outfitters, local businesses and the surrounding communities, said Ryan Bidwell of The Wilderness Society in a statement praising Udall's actions.
"Browns Canyon is a national treasure which deserves permanent protection to ensure the outdoor legacy, recreational opportunities and the local economic growth for the future," Bidwell said. "We applaud Sen. Udall for responding to public comments and crafting a balanced proposal that will allow economically important recreation to continue, while ensuring the area is protected for future generations."
Udall's proposal would protect approximately 22,000 acres along the iconic Arkansas River between Salida and Buena Vista. Browns Canyon is one of the most popular whitewater rafting destinations in the nation. The regional whitewater sports industry, which includes rafting, kayaking and other activities, accounted for more than $20 million in direct expenditures for a total economic impact of more than $52 million in the Arkansas Valley in 2012.

Being held hostage by gossips, rumormongers and snitches sounds like something out of the latest edition of a Harry Potter book. Instead, it comes straight from the everyday American workplace. These troublemakers detract from the workplace and leave many well-intentioned managers feeling overwhelmed and under-equipped. But, much like Harry, you too could be the hero who overcomes these human obstacles and sets the perpetrators free of their own limitations--even without earning a degree from your local school of witchcraft and wizardry (wink wink)! What follows are some successful strategies for dealing with the gossips, rumormongers and snitches that skulk and snivel through the hallways of your company.
When Gossips Abound
Gossips typically initiate unfounded rumors, whereas rumormongers perpetuate them, even if they lack any foundation of truth or could potentially damage others' reputations. And snitches, well, are snitches, and most of us know that playing the tattletale role is just plain wrong.
People who initiate unfounded rumors--and who gossip about their co-workers' or bosses' personal problems, work styles or private challenges--stir up drama for no good reason. What is important, however, is how you address the situation with your staff. Here's an example:
"Everyone, I've asked Charlie to join me in this meeting because a rumor has developed about Charlie's personal life. We don't know who originated the rumor, and if anyone of you would like to speak with me in private after this meeting about his or her involvement in starting or perpetuating the rumor, I'd be happy to hear what you have to say.
"For now, I want you all to know how hurtful this is. We're a team, and anyone who could raise issues like this against one member of the team raises them against us all. I personally would be very offended and hurt if anyone started or continued a rumor about my personal life that had little or nothing to do with my performance at work.
"Whether there's any truth to this rumor is not the issue; it's simply none of our business. This is about respect for each other as individuals and respect for our team.
"However, let me be very clear: I expect that no one will engage in this type of character assassination or public shaming exercise ever again. I also expect that everyone in our department would stop others from spreading rumors of a personal nature. In short, if you have nothing good to say, say nothing at all. Do I have your agreement and commitment on that going forward?
"Charlie, I'm very sorry, on behalf of the entire team, for anything that was said that might have hurt or offended you. We will commit to you to stopping these types of behaviors in their tracks in the future. Again, my apologies."
Reining in Rumormongers
There's little that will ruin camaraderie and foster a sense of distrust more than a rumormonger. Like gossips, they enjoy the power of having the "scoop" and sharing it at just the right moment to demonstrate their insider knowledge or to malign their workplace enemies. Some people just can't resist the urge to perpetuate unsubstantiated rumors, and once the proverbial pot is stirred, your response must be swift and strong:
"Susan, your comments about Stan and Joan have gotten back to me. Specifically, I was told that you said to three other members of our staff that Stan doesn't want to move his office back to our part of the building because he doesn't want to work anywhere near Joan.
"First of all, I know that Stan did indeed say this to someone else on our staff. Second, I know that person in turn shouldn't have shared that information with anyone else, but you apparently heard about it and chose to share it with additional members of the team, even though you had nothing to do with it, and it didn't affect you in any way.
"As a result, Joan has become the brunt of some mean-spirited office banter. And, as you could imagine, she was embarrassed and humiliated for something that she had absolutely nothing to do with. And that leaves me feeling very disappointed by your lack of discretion and insensitivity.
"I would think that an apology may be in order here, but I'll have to leave that to you. For now, I really want you to think about your actions and how you may have inadvertently made someone look bad in the eyes of their peers. I want you to know that I'm counting this as a verbal warning in my record book. I want your commitment right now that we'll never have to have a discussion like this again."
Tell Snitches To Zip It
Most positions in corporate America require the ability to maintain confidentiality as an essential function. Too many times, employees cloak their inability to maintain a confidence by trying to convince you that the information they share is critical to running your business.
For example, an employee might come to you and say, "I just need to let you know that Suzie is not at her desk enough. She's way too social and doesn't do her fair share of the work. It doesn't really bother me personally, but it may make it hard on the other employees."
As a rule, there should be three circumstances where unilateral sharing goes on: when an employee hears of complaints of harassment, discrimination or potential violence in the workplace. Otherwise, gently take your subordinate aside and explain the following:
"I understand that you believe that I need to know these things, especially since they occur when I'm not in the office or behind closed doors. And I appreciate your always trying to keep me in the loop as to what's going on. But there's a bigger issue that I want to sensitize you to, and it's a moral issue that has a lot to do with principle and doing the right thing.
"Not to sound ungrateful or unappreciative, but I don't know that sharing that kind of information about Suzie with me is the right thing for you to do. If you witnessed someone stealing or being harassed, I would want to know about that immediately. But those are serious conduct infractions that could have dire consequences to the company. When it comes to performance issues that you become aware of, I don't think that you should necessarily feel compelled to volunteer that information."
Magic Potion
These issues are sometimes a slippery slope, and sometimes these actions are done with little forethought. Nevertheless, left unaddressed and potentially unpunished, they can damage team spirit and good will more than just about anything else that the workplace could conjure up.
In short, practicing and demonstrating honesty, integrity and good old-fashioned manners will place you loftily above any mudslinging and will provide an admirable example for others to follow. And, of course, Harry Potter would be proud, too.

AHA Predicts Heart Failure Costs Will Double
A new AHA policy statement, "Forecasting the Impact of Heart Failure in the United States" predicts that the number of people with heart failure could climb 46 percent from 5 million in 2012 to 8 million in 2030. Direct and indirect costs to treat heart failure could also more than double in the same timeframe from $31 billion to $70 billion. The statement includes recommendations to lessen the impact of heart failure such as the use of quality guidelines, better care coordination, specialized training for healthcare professionals, and increased access to palliative and hospice care for patients with advanced-stage heart failure.

ACA Update
Most rulemaking is now complete for the health insurance coverage reforms that take effect on Jan. 1, 2014. The focus now is on ensuring that the new health insurance marketplaces can begin enrolling individuals who need coverage by Oct. 1, and educating the public about the new insurance options that may be available to them. In addition, since our last issue:
- HHS proposed rules to govern how "Navigators" who provide unbiased information to individuals who need help acquiring coverage in marketplaces, will be trained and certified and announced the availability of $54 million in grant funding for organizations to serve as Navigators. The department also suspended enrollment in the Pre-Existing Condition Insurance Plan programs at the federal and state level. Coverage will continue for the more than 100,000 individuals already enrolled. For more information: www.healthcare.gov
- The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) released Frequently Asked Questions on the "premium assistance" model for Medicaid expansion being considered by some states. The agency also provided new guidance to state Medicaid programs about how they can claim the one percent federal bonus in exchange for making all evidence-based preventive services available to Medicaid beneficiaries with no cost-sharing.
Stay tuned for more information about the association's efforts to help educate the public on the new insurance marketplaces and coverage options for uninsured Americans suffering from heart disease, stroke and their risk factors.

Capitol Hill Goes Red During Heart Month
A bipartisan group of 33 Congressional women came together to help Capitol Hill "go red" on Valentine's Day. Thirty-three women members of Congress united for a photo in the Capitol to help raise awareness that heart disease is the leading killer of women. The photo was widely shared by congressional women via social media.
Go Red For Women and WomenHeart: The National Coalition for Women with Heart Disease also partnered with HHS on the 3rd Annual State of Women's Heart Health webinar to kick off American Heart Month on February 5th. CEO Nancy Brown was joined on the webinar by HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg, Million Hearts Director Janet Wright, M.D., and Go Red For Women spokeswoman Mary Ann Bauman, M.D.
Obama 2014 Budget Released
President Barack Obama submitted his FY2014 budget proposal to the Congress on April 10th. The budget includes the administration's proposed spending levels for all federal agencies and programs for the next year. The AHA was pleased with the funding proposed for some of our priorities but not with others. The president's budget requests:
- $31.331 billion for the NIH, a $471 million or 1.5 percent increase over last year.
Our request: $32 billion
- $58.870 million for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) Division for Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention, a $108,000 increase.
Our request: $75 million
- $21.413 million for the CDC's WISEWOMAN program
Our request: $37 million
- $5 million be cut from the Prevention and Public Health Fund for Million Hearts, a public-private initiative to prevent one million heart attacks and strokes in five years.
Our request: $35 million
- No funding for Health Resources and Services Administration's Rural and Community Access to Emergency Devices Program (specifically automated external defibrillators).
Our request: $8.9 million
AHA Submits Comments on Proposed Competitive Foods Standards
In April, the association submitted a comment letter on the U.S. Department of Agriculture's proposed nutrition standards for competitive foods sold in schools. Competitive foods include foods and beverages sold a la carte and in school stores, snack bars and vending machines. The standards would establish limits on the amount of fat, sodium sugar and calories.
The AHA's comments offered strong support for the standards and recommended that the USDA further toughen them by revising the calorie limits to vary by age group, eliminating a proposed exemption for certain entrees and side dishes sold as a la carte items, and lowering the limit for saturated fat.
You're the Cure advocates mobilized to offer over 2,500 comments on the proposal to the USDA.
The final nutrition standards are expected to be released by USDA later this year.

In April, the association submitted a comment letter on the U.S. Department of Agriculture's proposed nutrition standards for competitive foods sold in schools. Competitive foods include foods and beverages sold a la carte and in school stores, snack bars and vending machines. The standards would establish limits on the amount of fat, sodium sugar and calories.
The AHA's comments offered strong support for the standards and recommended that the USDA further toughen them by revising the calorie limits to vary by age group, eliminating a proposed exemption for certain entrees and side dishes sold as a la carte items, and lowering the limit for saturated fat.
You're the Cure advocates mobilized to offer over 2,500 comments on the proposal to the USDA.
The final nutrition standards are expected to be released by USDA later this year.

EPA Proposes New Emissions Standards
The Environmental Protection Agency recently proposed new "Tier 3 Motor Vehicle Emissions and Fuel Standards" for cleaner gasoline and vehicle emissions. These standards will significantly reduce particulate matter and ozone pollution, both of which are harmful to cardiovascular health.
The association, along with our public health partners, will continue to support these new standards and defend them from being weakened as they move through the regulatory process.

Rep. Chris Smith Co-Chairs the Congressional Heart and Stroke Coalition
Representative Chris Smith (R-NJ) is the new House Republican co-chair of the Congressional Heart and Stroke Coalition. Congressman Smith joins Rep. Lois Capps (D-CA) and Senators Michael Crapo (R-ID) and Richard J. Durbin (D-IL) as leaders of the coalition. In addition to being a long-time member of the congressional coalition, Rep. Smith has been a strong supporter of funding for the National Institutes of Health, as well as a cosponsor of the HEART for Women Act and the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act.
The Congressional Heart and Stroke Coalition was founded in 1996 by the American Heart Association for the purpose of raising awareness of the seriousness of cardiovascular diseases and to act as a resource for heart and stroke issues..

Stroke and STEMI Systems of Care Strengthened
Several states made significant progress in moving proposals to address critical stroke and STEMI system of care polices this year. In February, Wyoming Governor Matt Mead signed a bill into law that would make Wyoming the first state in the country to define STEMI/heart attack facility designation using Society of Cardiovascular Patient Care/American Heart Association accreditation. New Mexico followed suit in March by passing a bill that allows for the department of health to formally recognize STEMI Receiving and Referring Hospitals. In April, a North Dakota bill was signed into law that develops a statewide emergency cardiovascular system of care. It would allow the state to formally recognize STEMI facility designations and creates a STEMI registry. The bill also establishes an advisory group for continued system work on STEMI and other emergency cardiovascular care systems.

Several States Pass Pulse Oximetry Laws
In early 2013, policy requiring that all newborns be screened for critical congenital heart disease (CCHD) using pulse oximetry was enacted into law in North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Maryland and Utah. A number of other states, including Connecticut, Kentucky and Virginia are developing rules to carry out previously enacted legislation to implement CCHD pulse oximetry screening which offers a quick, painless way to screen newborns and identify those who may have a critical congenital heart defect. Early identification of CCHD enables health providers to treat the defect quickly, and more than 85 percent of children who undergo surgery for the defects reach adulthood.

Momentum Continues to Build for CPR Training in Schools
Momentum continues to grow for the AHA's nationwide effort to encourage policymakers to enact legislation/regulation requiring that all students be trained in quality, psychomotor skill-based, CPR prior to graduating from high school. So far this year, we have already seen success in Virginia and Arkansas. Additionally, legislation in Georgia and Washington has moved forward and we are expecting the governor in each state to take action soon. These states would join the four states which enacted strong CPR training laws in 2011, the first year of the association's campaign.

Lufkin, TX passes comprehensive Smoke-free Air Ordinance
In April, Lufkin, Texas gave unanimous approval to a comprehensive smoke-free ordinance that will to go into effect on May 16. The community of 35,000 individuals had a well-organized coalition working on this ordinance for the past few months. Many thanks to the Smoke-Free Lufkin Coalition who worked with the AHA with action alerts, providing educational material to council members and making sure a comprehensive ordinance was enacted.
Longtime AHA volunteer & State Advocacy Committee member Kinnie Douglas testified on behalf of the AHA, submitted a letter to the editor and provided technical assistance as a member of a local tobacco control workgroup. Also, AHA volunteer John Brink submitted a letter to the editor and helped provide communication to council members as well. AHA worked with Texans Standing Tall to train some of the community leaders and provide guidance to volunteers to prevent attempts to weaken the ordinance throughout the process.

One punch enough for Camacho Jr.
Recommended Video:
Hector Camacho Jr. came to San Antonio hoping to win a fight and score a rematch with "Jesse" James Leija.
He left only half-satisfied.
Camacho needed only a single body shot to knock out Jon David Charles in front of a crowd of about 600 Saturday night at La Villita's Maverick Plaza.
The punch came at 2 minutes, 5 seconds, into the first round. It ended a short night for Charles (7-5, 1 KO), a Kingsville welterweight who moved up to middleweight — two weight classes — to take the bout late Thursday after Camacho's original opponent, Bernardo Guereca, told promoters he was too sick to fight.
"It wasn't that hard of a shot," Charles said. "I could have gotten up. But I'm not in shape. I was smoking a cigarette only last week."
Camacho (54-4-1, 29 KOs), of San Juan, Puerto Rico, son of the famous Hector Camacho Sr., barely broke a sweat.
"I got about two minutes of ring rust off," he said.
Afterward he called out Leija, whom he fought 11 years ago in a bout ending in controversy. Camacho's career has not been the same since.
"I'd fight James Kirkland, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., anyone," Camacho said. "I just want a big fight."
In the co-main event, the best fight of the evening, San Antonio super flyweight Joseph Rios (11-7-2, 4 KOs) outboxed Joel Garcia (5-1, 1 KO) of El Paso over six rounds to win a majority decision. But it was close.
"I think my endurance was the difference," said Rios, who was trained by his brother Mike Rios Jr. and Rick Morones. "I trained real hard for this fight. He's a good fighter, he kept coming. But I got stronger as the fight went on."
Judge Will Esperon scored the bout 58-56 and Anthony Townsend had it 59-55, both for Rios, while Joel Elizondo saw it 57-57.
Christina Ruiz and Nohime Dennisson fought to a majority draw in a four-round women's bout.
Ruiz (6-4-2, 4 KOs), of San Antonio, was the aggressor throughout, but had trouble catching up to the elusive Dennisson (4-2-2) of Albuquerque, N.M.
Another San Antonian, lightweight Rolando Campos (6-4, 2 KOs), outworked Henry Hernandez (1-6, 1 KO) over four rounds to win by unanimous decision.

MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan Platform SDK / Scratchbox Setup
Developing for MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan based devices does not mean to write software and compile on the device itself. Most of the development happens on normal desktop systems. A device like a N9/N950 is indeed not needed: The scratchbox environment emulates it for you. Please follow the MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan Platform SDK Guidelines in the Nokia Developer Wiki to setup scratchbox on your system. After installation, follow the guide to start the SDK UI. You should end up with a scratchbox shell using the HARMATTAN_X86 target. Additionally, start the MeeGo UI in Xephyr as described.
Compiling Marble
To strip down the number of dependencies, we will use the Qt-based version of Marble. The compilation requires cmake as the build system, make sure it is installed:
[sbox-HARMATTAN_X86: ~] > fakeroot apt-get install cmake
(If you prefer ccmake over cmake, just install cmake-curses-gui too)
With the necessary dependencies in place we proceed to the next step, checking out the Marble source code.
[sbox-HARMATTAN_X86: ~] > mkdir -p ~/marble/{src,build}
[sbox-HARMATTAN_X86: ~] > git clone git://anongit.kde.org/marble ~/marble/src
Well, here the problems start. I just get a bash: git: command not found and a fakeroot apt-get install git just gives me a E: Couldn't find package git. Anyone knows how to install Git in scratchbox?
Workaround: Just somehow copy the sources to your scratchbox dir, e.g. by scp -r localhost:/path/to/marble-sources ~/marble/src
Once all files were downloaded, prepare the compilation step:
[sbox-HARMATTAN_X86: ~] > cd ~/marble/build
[sbox-HARMATTAN_X86: ~] > cmake -DQTONLY=ON ../src
If cmake finished successfully, compile and install Marble:
[sbox-HARMATTAN_X86: ~] > make install
Running Marble
Execute the marble-touch binary with the help of meego-run, a script provided by the Harmattan platform to setup a working environment.
[sbox-HARMATTAN_X86: ~] > meego-run marble-touch
Marble Touch should start up and become visible in Xephyr now.

Precision measurements take special care.
Winter doesn't come very often to costal Texas, but it's a bit cooler lately and the days are certainly shorter. Last time I talked about sensing the presence of an object using a variety of sensors. Since I'm thinking about temperature this week, it is only fair to talk about common temperature sensors.
Common temperature sensors include semi-mechanical, thermistors, Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs), and thermocouples. There are also temperature sensors that take advantage of the change in the band gap of silicon with temperature.
The mechanical sensors are usually a bimetallic coil (that is, a coil made of two dissimilar metals). The metals will have different thermal coefficients and, thus, will expand and contract at different rates. This makes the coil get looser or tighter depending on the temperature. Old-fashioned thermostats use this principle, letting the coil make or break contacts to turn a heating element on and off. As you might guess, this becomes an object detection problem and you can use any of the methods mentioned last time. Of course, it seems silly to detect a bimetallic coil with a SONAR sensor, but microswitches are common in this application.
Two very common methods employ thermistors: resistors made of a metal oxide, and RTDs — resistors made with a platinum film. Thermistors are inexpensive and you can find them NTC (negative temperature coefficient) or PTC (positive temperature coefficient). That's just a fancy way of saying the resistance goes down as it gets warmer (NTC) or the resistance goes up (PTC).
Other than cost, there are a few other differences between thermistors and RTDs. RTDs have exceptional temperature range (the exact range will drive the cost) and are practically linear over most of their range (that is, a plot of the temperature vs. resistance is a straight line). Thermistors are usually more rugged, but they are decidedly non-linear, so converting their resistance value to a temperature is a bit harder.
There are lots of ways you can read a resistance. Most commonly, you make it part of a voltage divider and measure the voltage with an analog to digital (A/D) converter. This requires some excitation voltage and another resistor. You can also pair a resistor with a capacitor to produce a pulse and measure the time width of the pulse. That may take some external circuitry, or you can use a microcontroller I/O pin to do the job.
If you want to use the I/O pin route, you first make the pin an output and drive it low. That will discharge the capacitor. After you allow enough time for a complete discharge, you switch the pin to an input. The resistive device is connected to voltage and the capacitor charges (in a non-linear way). Eventually, the input pin will see a voltage high enough to record a logic one. By timing the amount of time the input pin stays low, you can get a relative idea of the time it takes the capacitor to charge, and thus the value of the resistance.
Thermocouples are very common in certain applications (although they are being overtaken by RTDs). A thermocouple capitalizes on the Seebeck effect — two junctions of dissimilar metal connected together will generate current when there is a temperature difference between them. (By the way, the opposite effect — the Peltier effect — says that if you put current through the junctions you will create a temperature difference and that's how portable refrigerators and some CPU coolers operate.)
Thermocouples generate a very little bit of noisy voltage for most temperatures (typically 1 to 70 microvolts per degree C). In addition, they only measure a difference in temperature, so you need a reference temperature for the "cold" junction. You could stick the cold junction in a bucket of ice, but that's not very practical. Instead, you usually use a special circuit to simulate a known reference temperature. In truth, because measuring thermocouples requires many special techniques, it is common to buy thermocouple amplifiers that do all the hard work (for example, the AD595 from Analog).
There are different types of thermocouples, known by letter designations (like type K or type T). These indicate the two different metals used, which determines the temperature range and output voltages.
Finally, integrated temperature sensors make use of the value of the silicon bandgap voltage. If you ever took a basic circuits class, you probably learned that a diode (or the base-emitter junction of a bipolar transistor) drops "about 0.6 or 0.7 volts." That's true at room temperature. In fact, the real value is a complicated expression involving the temperature, the charge on an electron, and Boltzmann's constant. The upshot, for our purposes, is the voltage changes with temperature (2 millivolts per degree Kelvin) and can be measured. Most often, you'd make this type of measurement with a special-purpose IC like an LM34, which outputs a simple voltage that easily relates to temperature.
Getting a rough idea of temperature is not hard at all. Precision measurements take special care. Keep in mind that putting current through a resistor causes the resistor to heat up! If two different kinds of wires connect together, they make a thermocouple (even if you didn't want one). Even PCB layout can affect the accuracy of temperature measurements. High accuracy resistance readings can be made with a four-wire method, for example. You can limit self-heating by using low currents. In general, if you need a very precise temperature measurement, you are better off buying an integrated sensor with the accuracy you need and getting the expertise of the manufacturer.
Of course, like anything else, you can find oddball ways to measure temperature. For example, Microchip has an example of measuring how long a watch dog timer reset takes using a higher-precision crystal oscillator. Because the watch dog uses a resistor/capacitor oscillator, it is temperature sensitive and by measuring the time it takes to reset, you can estimate the temperature! Of course, that's really a variation on the resistor/capacitor method I mentioned, but with an unintended thermistor.
Have you ever measured temperature in an odd way? Leave a comment with your best (or worst) story while you are braving the winter temperatures.

The Season 4 midseason premiere of Fear the Walking Dead found our survivors still struggling with how to continue on after the deaths of Madison (Kim Dickens) and Nick Clark (Frank Dillane) and dealing with a new threat in the form of a hurricane that arrived in the closing moments of the episode.
June (Jenna Elfman) -- previously known as "Laura" and "Naomi" -- is living in a school bus with John Dorie (Garret Dillahunt) and Charlie (Alexa Nisenson) in a sort of family unit. It's nice, but all is not well. Charlie is so traumatized by the things she's done and seen that she's barely speaking and almost allowed herself to get eaten by a walker, while June is grappling with who she is. John wants to go back to his cabin where he and "Laura" lived before she ran away, and June worries she won't be able to hack it and then John will find out what a quitter she really is.
"I'm not Laura," she tells Al (Maggie Grace). "I'm the woman who got scared and ran away. Not just from John, from everyone." But Al tells her that the person she is with John is the person she is now. Her past no longer has to dictate her future. And this new and improved June will be put to the test as she and Al weather the storm barricaded up in Al's SWAT van. The storm is forcing June to stay put and confront herself, which we'll see in Episode 412.
TV Guide spoke to Elfman about what it was like shooting the episode and what's up with Charlie.Jenna Elfman, Fear the Walking Dead" data-image-credit="Ryan Green/AMC" data-image-alt-text="Jenna Elfman, Fear the Walking Dead" data-image-credit-url="" data-image-target-url="" data-image-title="Jenna Elfman, Fear the Walking Dead" data-image-filename="180810-jenna-elfman.jpg" data-image-date-created="2018/08/10" data-image-crop="" data-image-crop-gravity="" data-image-aspect-ratio="" data-image-height="1380" data-image-width="2070" data-image-do-not-crop="" data-image-do-not-resize="" data-image-watermark="" data-lightbox="">
Was that a real fish that you gutted?
Elfman: Yes it was! Repeatedly! Take after take! And I feel like the take where they went, "Yes, that's the one! Print that take!" was the one where I said "Something's wrong. This fish is not well." The most disgusting, stinky -- all the fish were normal and smelled fresh, and that one had something wrong with it. Its innards were so disgusting and so stinky. It was awful.
Did you have prior fish-gutting experience?
Elfman: I learned how to gut a fish in Episode 405, "Laura," with Garret Dillahunt, that was where I had a fisherman give me an official lesson on how to gut a fish. So that was a nice little callback to that episode.
Can you tell me more about June's relationship with Charlie? Did they develop a closer relationship we didn't really see when they were with the Vultures, and that's why June has kind of adopted her?
Elfman: I think by default, June's a mother. She had a little girl. And I think once you're a parent, you're a parent. That's it. You're always a parent. And June's also a nurse, and I think caretaking is just in her DNA. And I think it's also healing. And there's a bit of a unit there with her and John, kind of, in its little exploratory stages. I think it's probably just by default. It kind of made sense for them to take Charlie in.
What's going on with her?
Elfman: Well, let's see; she's 11 and has lost both of her parents and has murdered somebody. I think that might cause a little girl to be traumatized, don't you?
Well, when you put it like that.
Elfman: I think sometimes when people are watching they're so used to the apocalypse at this point that they forget what the actual effects of being around that much violence and people being so mean to each other are. The character, and Alexa, when she was filming it, she's 11.
It's heavy stuff for even an actor that young to deal with.
Elfman: She's amazing, though. She's a very healthy soul, that one. She's quite an awesome lady.
In the last scene of the midseason premiere, how did they do the flying walkers? Where they just slingshotting stuntmen into the side of the truck? What was that like?
Elfman: That was crazy! I was sitting inside the SWAT van with Maggie watching these walkers fly past and slam into the SWAT van right in front of our faces, these stunt people going through this. They worked on that for a long time, figuring out how that was all gonna be. I actually have a fun little video that I'll post at the right time which was my point of view from inside the SWAT van with these stunt people hitting the window and smashing against the car. Literally flying by the window. It was so real and so creepy in a fun way.
So were they jumping off of trampolines? How was that happening?
Elfman: I think they had harnesses on and were being pulled.
Fear the Walking Dead airs Sundays at 9/8c on AMC.

For Those Not Paying Attention If you are dead set on sticking a needle through your body Belly Button Ring, for whatever reason that may be, use some common sense. Bill Whitlow, who has successfully pierced his own nipples and apadravya, provides some advice for those venturing down this path: Do a [thorough] search about the area you are going to pierce Do your research Make sure everything is sterile before you begin body piercing jewelry online, including the room you will be doing it in If there may be blood, tile floors are good Plan for what to do if something goes wrong If you don't like pain, don't do it. Whitlow also cautions, "When you go to a piercer, it is usually over with very quickly, [but] when you do it yourself, it is going to take a lot of time. So, if you want to get it surgical steel nose stud done quickly, don't do it yourself." Sound advice. Actually, "don't do it yourself" is the ultimate advice.
