This weekend, while visiting Hubby's Grandmother the funniest thing happened. We went over to their place for cocktail hour before dinner and Hubby cracked open a beer.
Grandmother: You want a mug for that?
Hubby: Sure, I guess so.
She then proceeded to walk over to the bar area and holds out about six of those freezer mugs. You know, the kind that you should put in the freezer, so when you pull them out they are nice and cold for that perfect, ice cold beer? MMM I am getting thirsty just thinking about it. Well, she didn't really know the purpose of the freezer mug.
Hubby: Grandmother, I think you are supposed to put those in the freezer, that way they are nice and cold and keep your drink that way.
Grandmother: Oh, I wasn't really sure what they were for. I guess I didn't realize they don't stay iced if you don't put them in the freezer. Silly me.
So, she takes all six of those mugs and puts them into the freezer and her significant other (SO) asks her what she is doing. They then proceed to argue about the significance of freezer mugs for about 10 minutes:
Grandmother: Did you know you have to KEEP these in the freezer for them to work?
SO (crabby-like): Huh, what? Why do mugs go in the freezer? That's stupid.
Grandmother: So they stay nice and cold. I didn't realize they melted.
SO: Huh, why would they melt? I don't understand.
Grandmother: Because they are a FREEZER mug.
SO: But, why doesn't he just drink his beer out of the bottle? What does he need this mug for? WHY does it go in the freezer?
And that is how the freezer mug started a fight….

Yield: Yields one 9-inch pie.
Servings: eight to ten.
If you can find good, fresh Key limes, by all means use them. But I've found that regular limes (also known as Tahiti or Persian limes) make just as good a pie. Whatever you do, avoid bottled Key lime juice; the processing changes the flavor significantly.

The crust is time consuming & not all that good - next round I will make with a graham cracker crust & save 1 1/2 hours! Or I have other pie crust recipes that are simple to make! The filling is good
The best key lime pie EVER!!!
Excellent. I agree with the fact you need more limes. The use of zest is a true enhancement.

Create interactive, customizable maps right in your web browser.
Unfortunately, Carto, as they call themselves now, has terminated the ability of a free account. If you are a student, you might be eligible for a free plan, everyone else can try it out for free.
This map service, formerly known as CartoDB, offers a wide range of features:
- Choose from free base maps
- Connect your cloud storage
- Customize the map interface & legends
- Write your own CSS rules for your map
- Pick between several types of map layers
- Create filters for your data
- Preview on Desktop & Mobile
- Plus: It's free!
Well, only the basic package is free, but it provides all the features you need to get started.
If you don't have the data, but would like to play around a little, CARTO provides several dozen datasets in their "Data Library".
You could also, for example, create an empty map, search for your hometown and draw the outline of a building using the polygon tool. The result is a filled area that you can further describe and add data to.
You can also map temporal data to show progression over time, for example of volcanic eruptions, or a local hotspot of traffic accidents. This is just one tiny example of the possibilities this platform offers.
However, there are some aspects in which CARTO falls short: You have to rely on their servers. So if they fail, your beautiful, hand-crafted map will not be visible. Plus, if you don't know how to work with their Carto.js javascript library, you can only embed a map on your website as an iframe, which creates some problems of its own.
You can find the dataset used in the screenshot here.

Recently it came to the attention of the US public, that Obama's nominee to the Supreme Court, Red Sonia, said that she was a better judge than any white male because she was a "latina woman". It was something about her experience, upbringing, culture and last but not least her physiology. Lets pretend that Red Sonia is correct, and indeed all that has a profound effect on her decisions as a judge. Should we not then question whether she is inherently qualified to correctly understand the laws and regulations written by the rich white males? I mean, she does not have the experience, upbringing, culture and the physiology of the rich white males - how in the hell do you expect her to understand the US Constitution?!
That's quite a conundrum, isn't it? Once you abandon the idea of a blind justice, justice which is metered independently of the skin color, experience, upbringing and physiology, the justice which strives to be just - you get very peculiar results. Can a typical liberal understand this? Very unlikely.

Fitz has survived his first hazardous mission as king's assassin, but is left little more than a cripple. Battered and bitter, he vows to abandon his oath to King Shrewd, remaining in the distant mountains. But love and events of terrible urgency draw him back to the court at Buckkeep, and into the deadly intrigues of the royal family.
Renewing their vicious attacks on the coast, the Red-Ship Raiders leave burned-out villages and demented victims in their wake. The kingdom is also under assault from within, as treachery threatens the throne of the ailing king. In this time of great danger, the fate of the kingdom may rest in Fitz's hands—and his role in its salvation may require the ultimate sacrifice (goodreads.com).
Once I got a bit into the story I thoroughly enjoyed it. However, unlike many other books this book has a simple plot with not much to it. Basically, the Red Ship Raiders are at it again and no matter what Verity does they can't be stopped. He gets some clues as to where the Elderlings might be found and with a few men he seeks them out. In his absence, things do not go well for Buckkeep with Regal trying to take the crown and leaving Buckkeep with nothing as he seeks to go inland for safety.
At first, the story moved slowly, but because I knew the characters already I was still intrigued and continued reading. Eventually, it was interesting enough to enjoy the story, but don't expect any very exciting, fast paced parts like in other books because there are not any. Didn't matter to me because what kept me going was my love for Fitz and my complete hatred of Regal and hoping that someone would kill him already. This is pretty much a story about developing characters, suspense, and making me anxious of what was going to happen by the end of the book. It is completely unpredictable!
The ending was fantastic by the way and nothing gets resolved so keep on reading! I can't wait to find out what happens.
Despite a few, the characters are awesome. I love Fitz even though he was annoying at times with his complete and utter interest in Molly. At least it wasn't too detailed, but that was pretty much all he ever thought about. I also enjoyed the developing relationship between him and Nighteyes! As well as his interesting use of both the Skill and Wit.
Verity is my second favorite character though for half of the book he isn't really present, except in a few cases of Skilling, because he is off finding the Elderlings. I love how his relationship with Fitz is developing to the point where they are more like brothers. It is a great bond that they share. The declining relationship between Verity and Regal is awesome. Verity is finally realizing what his brother is capable of.
One of the best female characters is Ketrricken! Thought not too strong at first, she becomes stronger as the book progresses and even fights in a battle along side the men. She would be a great Queen and even many of here people believe that too! Her relationship with Verity lags a bit but soon they become a little closer. I was so upset because by the time they were getting to know each other more Verity decided to leave.
The character that is absolutely horrible and Robin Hobb does a great job to make me hate is Regal. He is a selfish little prince who doesn't care what it takes to get the crown. As you read the book you have insights to everything that he is doing and it is just awful! I hate him!
Molly (Fitz's love interest) isn't a great character. I didn't find her to be very interesting and she was always in a mood. She was always so angry at Fitz that it just became irritating, and I am not sure what Fitz sees in her.
Also, even though I much enjoyed him in the previous novel, in this one the Fool is just a bit annoying because of his clingyness to his King. This also became a little annoying. Should be better in the next book, hopefully.
I really enjoyed most of the characters and I think they are very well developed. Robin Hobb does an amazing job!
The writing of the book is perfect! I have no complaints and the world building is terrific!
Overall Thoughts
The book is a masterpiece, but may not be fore people who like a lot of action in there books. It moves slowly but still kept me on the edge of my seat and the characters are awesome! If you enjoyed the first novel I highly recommend reading this one and I know I will be reading the next one shortly.
My rating: 4.5/5

Man, I am on a roll with my post titles! They are so gloriously cliche and awesome.
Good for me. At least I'm having fun.
Yeah, so, I've been trying knitting lately. My knitting is like my running. I do both because I hate them.
Maybe "hate" is the wrong word.
I find them both very challenging and frustrating and I MUST CONQUER THEM.
I hear other normal people have hobbies that they like. Weirdos.
I've heard tell of the challenge of reading a crochet pattern, but what the hell does this mean?
Row 7: K1, P1, K1, P1, m1F, P1, K1, P1, K1 (9 st)Row 8: Work in the rib pattern across all the stitchesRow 9: K1, P1, K1, P1, Kfb, P1, K1, P1, K1 (10 st)Row 10: P1, K1, P1, K1, P2, K1, P1, K1, P1
I didn't really know, no matter how many YouTube videos I looked at, so I made something up. Nothing's unraveled yet, so we'll just look at my newest project from far away, okay?
Wait, no, let's look at it close up. Hey, you real knitters out there... What did I do?
['Cause you can really tell from my crappy photo...]
I'm working on this headband ear warmer from T. Matthews, which seems to be the only pattern on The Interwebs for this phenomenom of a cold weather accessory. The decreasing finish of the pattern is a relative breeze to the seven circles of increasing hell that starts off the parade. God give me strength!
My other slight success in the knitting realm is a dishcloth I made for my broski. I don't know why I keep making him things (as opposed to buying him something, or sending an e-card or whatever)... like, elaborate things that I have no skill in making.
It's a dishcloth that says "nerd". 'Cause what else are you going to give your bro once he's out-grown Star Wars action figures... Or has he? Duh duh DUH!
[Hey, Wyatt.]

July is the best time at the farmer's market. There are so many kinds of fresh vegetables and fruits there, so every week when I go to the farmer's market, I have the most difficult choice: I want to buy everything at once, but then I have to think what dishes I will make with all these foods before they go bad. That's why I am trying to keep myself in control and buy something else every week. This rule doesn't work for fruits: There is never too many fruits in our house, especially now when Sophia goes to summer camp, she always has at least 3 containers of fruits packed in her lunch box.
Last week when I saw corn at the farmer's market for the first time in this season, I grabbed 5 and decided to make something special with it, not just grill or boil it.
The idea came the next night when I was making dinner: salad. This recipe is very easy to make. It's a great complement to any outdoor party. Fresh, juice and delicious.
Corn Salad with Green Beans and Tomatoes.
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper
4 ears corn, grilled or boiled
1 pound green beans, blanched and cooled
1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
1 cup basil leaves, thinly shredded
Prepare vinaigrette by whisking together mustard, vinegar, oil, salt and pepper. Set aside.
Cut kernels off corn cobs and put in a large bowl. Add beans, tomatoes, onion and basil. Drizzle vinaigrette over and toss to combine. Serve.

All compositions on this album were composed during the years 1981 and 1982 with the subsidy of the Finnish Government particularly for this line-up except for A3 which was originally composed for the play "Peer Gynt" performed at the Helsinki City Theatre and afterwards arranged for the octet.
The suite "Festival Movements" including the Big Band arrangements of the compositions B2, B3, B4 won the first prize in the competition for jazz compositions in Finland 1981.
This record has been produced by the support of the Foundation for the Promotion of Finnish Music.
Recorded at Finnvox Studios, Helsinki, May 1982.
Four years after "Proto-funk" they came back with another record that charts more squarely in the big band style-- even more reminiscent of the German group Noctett, by this time, even in Finland, fusion was probably a dirty word...
But I would like to feature it because of the awesome track called "Hawai'i." Surprisingly, it's not all about ukulele strumming, circles of fifths, and diatonic ditties with major chords a la Don Ho and Tiny Bubbles. Like the "Seven Sacred Pools" of Joachim Kühn (footnote: the natives make a point of saying they are not sacred, this is an inappropriate misnomer like calling the White House a sacred temple) it's a serious composition that evokes the verdure, the clouds, the beautiful birds and the fresh rainshowers that appear so suddenly but depart so swiftly. For those who have been there, this is a place that stays in the heart forever, as Joachim and Jukka probably realized.
The minute you step off the plane-- passing through the open-air Honolulu Airport with its mahogany walls and numerous palms, you will smell the unmistakable thick subtropical wind full of orchids, rainforest and warmth, a smell you will never forget for as long as you live. In Hawai'i you will do the dutiful tourist activites-- seeing the volcano on the big island, the longest continuous erupting volcano in the world, drive through the lush rainforests and stare, slack-jawed, at the plummeting cliffs going down to the ocean on the 'road to Hana', trek through jungles to see brilliant huge waterfalls falling hundreds of feet down into cold fresh pools, watch the championship level surfers on the North Shore of Oahu and be awed by their skills-- which took years of daily practice to master, make no mistake about it (I've tried it, and it's really hard), taste the wonderful abundance of seafood and hopefully try the magnificent fish called Wahoo, the name supposedly derived from the island name of Oahu, which the natives there call Ono (meaning delicious), maybe you will see the mandatory-touristy luau and watch the dancers-- but this is just a superficial tasting...
It's only when you've spent a few weeks there, enjoying the friendliness of the locals and their universal 'hang loose' hand signal, finding completely empty white sand beaches with gorgeous waters, walking hours along rainforest trails, swimming in secret ponds at the foot of waterfalls, visiting enormous valleys in the central parts of certain islands, as majestic as the Grand Canyon, that you will understand, really understand... Hawai'i is a paradise on earth, as close as we will get to experiencing Eden. Then when you return home to the boring daily job of 30-40 hours a week you use to waste time and buy food until you get old and retire, having to deal with angry coworkers, upset clients, insoluble problems you are required to fix, the horrid cold in our Northern Hemisphere, driving past the endless suburbs of home depots, Starbucks, and Burger Kings to drive home late at night with no forest anywhere nearby, you will miss Hawai'i-- I guarantee. And the more you go there, the more deeply you will miss it...
How you'll yearn to go back, like Gaugain to Tahiti, or Rimbaud to Africa, to hear the sweet music, to smell those gorgeous orchids, walk through the forests with grand three-hundred foot wide monkey pod trees, grander than the cathedrals the Europeans spent hundreds of years building, sit on a rock at the bottom and pass hours just watching the forest in its element...
With regards to the sample song "Hawai'i" notice how the woodwinds-- as usual I should say-- evoke the clouds passing by, or a flock of birds flying away, with their turbulent, arpeggiated style. As well, using the 'polytonality' of D on top of the key of C (the tritonal F sharp in fact) here makes one think of mists, showers, water, etc., due to the layering of one chord on top of the other, as if a reflection in a pool of water. A very composed track for sure from the hand of this master:

A drone racing shop by Aircraft pilots, for Aircraft pilots. We, both its proprietor and its employees, fly every day and just about every end of the week at our regional MultiGP activities here in wonderful Holiday, California. In the 2016 MultiGP Nationals, the company's proprietor placed 4th overall racing among the nation's best. We take flying very seriously, as do you! As a result, we are very experienced about FPV drone racing and the items we offer. We take a position on every item we supply and pleasure ourselves on holding the items that competitors want and we have come to believe in. We thank you for creating us your option for an internet-based drone racing shop for all your FPV quadcopter devices and kit.
Our Drone Racing Shop offers free delivery on any purchase over $50. All purchases created by 4 pm EST are delivered the same day (Mon-Fri, some Saturday's). As a result of our fast delivery and main US delivery place, you can be sure that regardless of where you are in the nation you will get your areas easily (and hopefully by this end of the week so you can race!). For the Holiday, FL pilots, regional pick-up is also available. Simply message us on Facebook to arrange!
We are an internet based drone racing shop that has everything you need to get your FPV quadcopter racing, from beginning to end. Whether it be an area on the quad or even a Taranis X9D Plus Operator, we can get you in the air and keep you there. If we do not have the actual aspect you are looking for, then we have something similar or something better! We bring all of the best manufacturers and areas, such as (just to name a few) Littlebee ESCs, DYS Products, Flyduino Hug Products, Enraged FPV items, SMC Excessive Battery power, TBS Team-Blacksheep items, EMax Engines, Whoop Products and many components which every speed needs.
Should you have any queries an item, or have a query about what might work most effectively for your Racing drone Specifications, please don't think twice to get in touch with us on our Contact Us page, or Facebook. We will response easily, and we have the know-how and needed client support to get you in the air and keep you there.
Our objective is in order to get the best possible fit for your flying wish, with all the training and support you need. We offer packages and consist of 100 % free customized build clinics with everyone we offer. We identify that different pilots want different factors out of our sport. It's just as essential to add the beginner lead, younger lead, and the recreation area lead, as it is to assistance FPV racing. It's just as essential to support pilots who fly alone or in little categories, as those who fly at greater categories. We also identify that some pilots will choose to use flying areas on a provate property that are not available to the community.
Once again, some producers have already served on this concept and designed their item with an optimum elevation of just under the four hundred feet. So, it's another great protection function that will help to keep the unwary out of trouble.

Junior's Delicatessen II
The original Junior's Delicatessen opened near the intersection of Pico and Westwood in West L.A. in 1959. As explained here, it was a small operation run by the Saul Brothers that mainly sold corned beef and other deli food to go. But they had a handful of tables and if you wanted to have a sandwich there, one of the brothers would make it and bring it to your table. It was on Pico, a few blocks east of Westwood.
In 1967, they moved to a new building that was more of a restaurant on Westwood. Almost instantly, Junior's became one of great local success stories for that kind of business. I was a regular customer but I never found the place outstanding. The corned beef wasn't as good as Art's. The potato salad wasn't as good as Nate 'n Al's. The chicken soup wasn't as good as Canter's and so on. A deli doesn't have to do all those things well but it ought to do one thing better than everyone else in town. If Junior's did, I never ordered it. (I feel the same way about Factor's and Jerry's, though I'm sure commenters here can tell me of many things they've loved at all these places.)
What Junior's had going for it was a good, friendly feel and a great location. If you had to meet a friend or business associate for lunch in that area, it wasn't merely the best choice. It was darn near the only one. So I went there often and was never unhappy, except sometimes with the bill or the parking lot. And it did have the main stamp of approval that a deli has to have in Los Angeles: You could sometimes spot Mel Brooks eating there.
Junior's was such a fixture of the neighborhood that it came as a shock when its closure was announced in December of 2012. It closed the last day of the year. What happened? It depends on who you ask.
Marvin Saul, who founded and ran Junior's, died near the end of 2011 and control of the business passed to his sons, David and John. In a newspaper article, David blamed their landlords who were trying to raise the rent and were "not willing to bend" on "a number that we can't give." He cited rising food costs. In response, the landlords (a firm called Four Corners Investment Co.) blamed the sons. A spokesperson said that they'd had an excellent working relationship with Marvin Saul and had actually lowered the rent below what Junior's was contractually obligated to pay, hoping that a declining business could turn around. When it came time to renew the lease for 2013, the two sides were unable to agree on a number. The Four Corners people suggested that the sons simply did not have the management skills of the father and that may be so. It may also be so that the Four Corners folks saw an opportunity to bring in a tenant with better prospects and a willingness to pay the full rental value of the property.
Given that I often felt the food was overpriced and not as good as it should have been, I'm inclined to think that Junior's best days were in the past. But somehow, maybe because it was a part of my world for so long, I already miss the place and hope that reports of it reopening somewhere else will prove true. If they'd gotten a cut of every business deal made at their tables, the place would still be the gold mine that it was for Sauls in the late sixties through about the nineties.

Wow! I didn't know Juniors closed. My mom worked there in the late 70's and most of the 80's. I saw so many movie stars there!! Prince, Arnold, Stallone and a few others were always there! Loved that place. My mom wasn't a fan of Marvin Saul. She complained about him daily. Many memories in that place.
The bakery side use to be Rancho Music my dad's store. Bob Hite of Canned Heat was manager before getting record deal. We ate at Juniors in the 60's and 70's. Food was great before son's took over. Those were the days.
Rumor has it that Lenny's will be closing in a week or two. Lenny sold the place a couple of years ago and the new owner isn't as savvy as Lenny is.
I lived Jewish Delicatessens! As a young man I learned much of the trade working in some of the best delis in and around LA! There are foods that get into your taste buds and heart memories that never leave! Matzo Ball Soup, kreplach…oh so many vivid memories! I am an Executive Chef Retired, my work sent me all over the world working in major hotels! But my home feelings are in Santa Monica and LA, even the Valley! My favorite job was working the Deli counter slinging Liz and whitefish! I have been longing for Jewish home cooking, Hence my search found me here! I hope Juniors still exists! I may one day return home to see my youth memories revitalized!
I am truly delighted to have stumbled upon your website while trying to look up Al Penni's or Penny's? In Culver City for some obscure reason. Great Website.
Yep, I went to work @ Juniors the in 1960 with Marvin & Eddie Saul on Pico, I learned a valuable trade, Jewish Deli from 2 nice guys! I went there, brought my sons & friends there too. I was just a kid, but, remember it well. Eddie was the nicest guy, Marvin more business!
I can't imagine, in all the years they were there, that the opportunity to buy that building or another in the same area didn't come along. So many who lease their business locations get comfortable just throwing rent money down the toilet. If Marvin Saul had bought the building, I'm confident that David & John would still be there today, making tons of money and confident in knowing that their location was secure. If you lease rather than buy–and your location is important to you, BUY IT! If you continue to lease, the rent will keep going up and up and in the end, you'll have NOTHING to show for all your years of hard work, other than a stack of canceled rent checks.
Had I meal and went to the register to pay. Cashier comes out of the back and says, "Give me a few minutes". She disappeared into the dining and we could hear here talking from within. A few minutes stretched into twenty and we left without paying. As they say "Time is money".
I'm glad to hear that a new, better deli has opened in Junior's place. I didn't have any sentimental attachment to Junior's because I was in my thirties by the time I tried it, in or around 2006. At that time, it was terrible. Food was awful, fruit salad had fruit flies drowned in it, the place was looking like it needed a good scrubbing.
jrs had the best sweet sour cabbage soup it was $$$$$ but u pay for good yummy food the derby cake omg delish
lennys is not jrs im sorry cakes was stale my neice ate thre said food not same if not broken dont fix it
I enjoyed the food at Junior's, especially the cabbage soup, cabbage rolls, and blintzes, my go-to items. I have eaten at Lenny's twice, and I don't plan to go back. I find the food blah, different from Junior's and not to my taste. I certainly don't find it cheaper. I also find the atmosphere blah, as well as the service.
Junior's, now Lenny's, is indeed better than ever. Lenny – there really is a Lenny – knows his business, and his careful make-over of what was Junior's has brought the former into the 21st century, and in this case that's a good thing. Everything good about Junior's, the character of the menu particularly, remains, and there's value added: smarter, more professional service, a smart new interior that evokes the feel of Junior's but seems cleaner and more comfortable. If you enjoyed going to Junior's but have not patronized Lenny's, you're in for a pleasant experience.
Juniors had the best cheese blintzes ever! I really miss them. :-(
Oh man the cabbage soup! It was the best on the planet! I'll miss it.
I too miss Junior's which varied in quality over the years but was always a reasonable value. And I remember I&Joy — and I think C(harles?)Golvin, too, who posted above:-) I too was a high school senior in '75 (University HS). Increasingly nostalgic, particularly about old L.A. eateries . . .
A Marvick
So sad to see great old restaurants like this close. They not only have yummy food, but they're full of Hollywood history too.
Ricky Hanson
The space that was Junior's is now re-open as Lenny's Deli. They opened on February 7th. I ate there tonight for the first time, and you know what? I would honestly have to say it's better — and I say that because they have virtually the same menu but they've increased the portions and lowered the prices!!! Not only that, but about 80% of the former employees came back — including Scottish Annie!!! I met Lenny too, and he is very friendly and approachable. Try it out!
>>A deli doesn't have to do all those things well but it ought to do one thing better than everyone else in town. If Junior's did, I never ordered it.<<
Well, I did! There were a few things Junior's did better than other places — their cabbage soup was outstanding, as was their marinated steak, as was their grilled garlic salmon. They also had the best waitress, Scottish Annie.
The Westwood Blvd. location wasn't originally as large as when it closed. There used to be an I&Joy Bagels bordering Junior's on the south, but eventually Junior's subsumed it.
As a high school senior in 1975 I worked at that I&Joy, but I don't remember when it shut down and Junior's swallowed the space.
Often, when heirs "take over" the business, the brand no longer exists as it died with the creator. Junior's Deli was the fathers brainchild, not the son's. He understood the mechanics from the ground up because he designed it himself. The sons simply tried to keep it going. The father most likely could have weathered the recession much better than the sons.

I have to admit I've never been the biggest fan of peanut butter. I eat it on toasts that's it. When I buy a jar at the grocery store it usually lasts a long time!
I was never a huge fan of peanut flavor either, like in sauces and all. And as much as I love chocolate, the two together was never my thing. Reese's PB cups don't do anything for me. Sorry...BUT. Peanut butter cookies I like. They're so smooth and sweet and salty. The downfall of them is the amount of fat that's in there. I remember when I'd go visit my grandma she'd keep them a cookie box lined with paper towel that would get drenched in oil. The traditional recipes call for commercial peanut butter AND shortening. Not good.
SO when I found this recipe in Sarah Philips' "Healthy Oven" I had to try it. And I have to admit, they're amazing. And the fat amount is a lot less than grandma's cookies. Plus by using natural peanut butter it assures you there's NO shortening in here! (because we all know commercial PB is loaded with that shtuff...)
Today I thought I'd get over this whole "pb and chocolate" non-sense and add some chocolate on those cookies. It works nice. I admit, they go together quite nicely...but I still won't eat Reese's cups. Not when I can have these!!:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/8 tsp salt
3/4 cup natural peanut butter
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
2 TBSP unsalted butter at room temperature.
1 egg
1 TBSP light corn syrup
1 TBSP vanilla extract
3 ounces semi-sweet chocolate (for dipping)...(optional but recommended!!)
Preheat the oven at 350F and set the rack in the middle.
Mix the flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
In another bowl, using a mixer or a spatula (spatula in my case...my grandma never had a mixer...),beat the peanut butter, sugars and butter until well mixed. Add in the egg, corn syrup and vanilla.
Add the flour mixture in 2 batches.
*You'll notice the dough will not come together quite nicely in a big ball, but don't worry. That's ok...
Roll the "dough" into little balls, about 1 teaspoon worth for each ball. Place on an oiled cookie sheet, about 1 inch appart. With a fork, press on the dough balls to create that cute peanut butter cookie pattern we all know and love...
Bake for 8-10 minutes. Cool them on the sheet for a minute and transfer to a rack.
*If you need to make 2 batches I suggest you get the littl' balls ready while the first batch is in the oven...saves time...just saying..!
Now. To take it to the next level, melt some chocolate in the micro-wave and dip each cooled cookie until the top in coated. As I said you can skip this step but why would you??
Don't they look so cute?

It will just be until John McCain is ready to start a running a real campaign.
At first we thought rigor mortis was setting in, but it turned out to be his doe in the headlights look from the recent economic news. He had it so bad Palin nearly shot him. Did we mention McCain was a POW?"

text: We had a good Halloween this year, though we quickly learned that the warm costumes we always looked for in Indiana just aren't going to work here in Texas. With temperatures in the mid to high 80's poor Levi was so sweaty in his dragon costume. As you can see we recycled some costumes from last year :).

Atlanta — Jun 27, 2018
The Atlanta Regional Commission board today approved more than 100 transportation projects in metro Atlanta that will improve roads and highways, enhance transit service, and expand the region's network of multi-use trails. The projects, which cost a total of $400 million, will begin or be completed during the next five years.
Federal transportation funds are covering most of the cost, with local governments providing more than $100 million in matching funds. ARC developed the project list in close consultation with local governments to meet the region's greatest needs.

The potential impact is significant, from cleaner air to reduced congestion:
- The bike-ped and transit projects will take enough cars off the road to reduce annual vehicle miles traveled in the Atlanta region by 3 million miles.
- Tailpipe emissions will decrease by 19,900 tons per year.
- Vehicle travel delays will decline by 7 million hours a year.
"These projects address some of the most significant local transportation needs and will help people get where they need to go safely and efficiently," said Doug Hooker, ARC Executive Director. "This will improve our region's quality of life and strengthen our economic competitiveness."
The $400 million project list is in addition to $7 billion dollars of improvements that are already planned or under construction through 2023, such as Express lanes on I-75 and I-575 in Cobb and Cherokee counties, and a massive rebuild of the I-285/Ga. 400 interchange.
Here's a closer look at how the $400 million project list will improve transportation in metro Atlanta:
Improved Roads and Intersections
Dozens of projects are on the horizon to improve congestion and safety for drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists alike. Highlights include:
- South Barrett Parkway Reliever – Shiloh Valley Drive and Greers Chapel Drive in Cobb County will be widened from two to four lanes, creating a viable alternative to Barrett Parkway.
- S. 278 redesign – U.S. 278 in Avondale Estates will become a pedestrian-friendly "Main Street" with improved sidewalks, new bike lanes, and pedestrian crossings with medians.
- Rock Quarry Road – Right-of-way will be purchased to widen this key Henry County artery from two to four lanes, with a multi-use path, between Eagles Landing Parkway and North Henry Parkway. Construction is planned from 2024-2030.
- Barnwell Road – To improve traffic flow at the intersection with Holcomb Bridge Road, Barnwell dual left turn lanes will be added, along with a through lane and a right-hand turn lane. A roundabout will be built at Niblick Drive.
Better Transit Options
The region's transit providers plan to improve service and meet growing demand:
- Gwinnett County Transit will extend weekday service on local bus routes will now run past midnight, and reduces wait times to 30 minutes or less most of the day
- CobbLINC will establish Sunday service and enhances Saturday service
- Douglas County will launch a countywide bus service
- SRTA/GRTA will expand Xpress service in coordination with the opening of the I-75/I-575 Xpress Lanes in Cobb and Cherokee and expand park-and-ride lots in Rockdale County and at Sugarloaf in Gwinnett County
- MARTA will establish arterial rapid transit routes in the city of Atlanta (Cascade Road, Cleveland Ave., Campbellton Road, Metropolitan Parkway, and Peachtree Road)
Expanded Regional Multi-Use Trail Network
A major expansion of the region's multi-use trails used by bicyclists and pedestrians is planned – about 800 miles in all. The projects are a major step toward the creation of a truly regional trail network that will make it easier for people to get where they need to go without driving.
Projects include:
- Atlanta BeltLine (Atlanta) – Preliminary engineering for two segments – Lindbergh Center to 10Th Street/Monroe Drive, and Glenwood Ave. to University Ave.
- Bob Callan Trail (Cobb) – Design of extension from Interstate North Parkway to just south of Windy Hill Road, creating direct or potential connections to Kennesaw Mountain, the Silver Comet Trail, the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area, PATH400, and the Atlanta BeltLine Trail.
- Peachtree Creek Greenway Trail (DeKalb) – This project will extend the Peachtree Creek Greenway from the city of Atlanta to North Druid Hills Road, connecting to the Atlanta BeltLine Trail.
- PATH400 (Atlanta) – The PATH400 trail will be extended from Wieuca Road to Loridans Drive, providing a critical link in the region's trail network, providing access to major employment centers.
Fast-Tracked Highway Projects
Preliminary engineering and design will be provided for several major freeway projects, including:
- I-285 West Express Lanes (I-20W to I-75N)
- I-285 East Express Lanes (I-20E to I-85N)
- Interchange improvements at I-285 and I-20W
- Interchange improvements at I-285 and I-20E
Atlanta Region's Transportation Improvement Program
The project list updates the Atlanta region's Transportation Improvement Program, which is managed by ARC. As the region's federally designated Metropolitan Planning Organization, ARC allocates federal transportation dollars across the 20-county Atlanta region.
Learn more about metro Atlanta's Transportation Improvement Program, including detailed information about each of the projects on the list.

Given I'm writing this post about late spring in the veggie garden in the middle of summer, you would be right in thinking I am a little behind in posting. Luckily a patch of 34+ days are crimping my summer holiday DIY plans.
Segue: crimping my holiday plans unless I get up at before sparrow fart when it's cool, or stay up until…(actually what is the opposite of sparrow fart for the people who have to wait until sundown and cool down? Is there a colloquial expression for that? Should we make one? How does before bat fart read to you?)…until before bat fart. And I have done that: mainly the before bat fart because I don't mind late night door and window painting while being eaten alive by mosquitoes, whereas sparrow fart is just too f*cking early. But I digress…
The veggie garden has been a very productive member of the household this year, I've had a couple of harvests of snow peas and sugar snap peas, in suitable quantities. I like how they become ready in handfuls, which is the perfect amount for a stir fry or salad.
And now, in summer, I am starting to harvest courgettes while little ears of corn grown on my dwarf corn plants. Actually I am not sure if they are dwarf corn plants, but I suspect so since they are a lot shorter than other corn I have grown. Whatever they are, they look like they will give me a plethora of corn.
The silverbeet has now gone to seed, finally. These plants are 2 years old, so I am impressed they made it til now. I didn't use it as much as I'd like, simply because I didn't have the freezer space free. But I did make a large patch of silverbeet and potato soup plus I have some canneloni filling for when it's cool enough to want to eat pasta again.

Building a Wheelchair Ramp Model With Slope 1/12
The scenario was the following.
Grandma wanted to come see her grandson play high school football but the bleachers were not wheelchair accessible. The students were asked to build a model wheelchair ramp that was accessible to the top bleacher while also staying within ADAs (Americans With Disabilities) building code—the slope must be exactly 1/12 throughout the ramp.
The students were giving the following model conversion scale
5 yards = 1 inch.
Using this, they modeled a 120 x 50 yards football field into a 24'' x 10'' football field.
Next, using the bleachers my six year old son built for them, they measured the height at 2''.
Using the 1/12 slope, they built a 24'' incline wheelchair ramp.
Then converted these scaled numbers to real life. 5 yards = 1 inch. Meaning a 2'' height = 10 yards of actual height and 24'' ramp = 120 yards.

Report Export Options
When previewing an SSRS report there are multiple options for exporting the report to various formats. These options are found under the drop down menu in the tool bar, next to the save icon. Some of the available options are: Word, Excel, CSV, XML and Data Feed. This document will review two of these options, "Excel" and "Data Feed".
Example: Document Listing Report
This report is found under the Contact Manager section of the Reports menu –> Document Listing.
Shown below are the results of the report. The selection criteria included a single campus "Campus Institute of Art" and only includes "Active" documents.
Report in the report viewer:
Export to Excel
On the save menu, selecting "Excel" will export the report and when the export is opened using Excel, the report will be avaiable and will be formatted similar to the report preview.
Document Listing Exported to Excel
Export to a Data Feed
Selecting "Data Feed" from the save menu, will create a file with the ".atomsvc" extension.
If you have the file association setup on your workstation, you can then select to open the file with a program that can use the atomsvc file. For example, you may have the PowerPivot add-on installed within Excel. If so, you can then select to open the .atomsvc file with Excel and the data feed will be imported into a new workbook.
To manually open the atomsvc file within Excel:
- Open Excel – Blank workbook
- Select (on the Data tab): "From Other Sources" –> "From OData Data Feed"
- Enter the location of your atomsvc file, or use the Browse button to locate the file.
Set the login credentials as necessary
- Select the Table to be used. Some reports have multiple data sources. If you are unsure which one contains the data for your report, you can select them all to view the contents.
- Click "Finish" to view the results within Excel
The raw data source for the report is now available in Excel. You will notice extra columns which are part of the underlying data, that was not visible in the report preview. This information may or may not be useful – you can always hide columns that are not important.
The data is not sorted as it was on the report, as the sorting is part of the report output. If you need it sorted, you can sort within Excel.
Refreshing the Exported Data
Now – return to the Campus Nexus Web application and navigate to the "Documents" list/reference item. Change the Active setting on one of the documents and edit the description of another.
Edit the Active setting on one document:
Change the Name property of another:
Go back to Excel where the spreadsheet based on the OData feed is open. On the Data tab, select "Refresh". The document that was switched from Active "No" to "Yes" should now appear in the spreadsheet, and the Name of the document that was modified will also be updated in the spreadsheet. Refreshing the data re-runs the original query against the current state of the data items.
Select "Refresh" from the Data tab:
Updated spreadsheet:
If you go back to the Excel spreadsheet that was exported directly from the report viewer, you will notice that the data remains static, as of the date and time that the report was originally run. This data cannot be refreshed without re-running the report and re-exporting the results.
Export to Excel
- Only data items that are visible on the report are exported
- Data remains static providing an "as of" view of the data
- Rows are sorted in the same order as they were in the report viewer
Export to Data Feed
- All elements in the data set used for the report are exported, even those that are not visible in the report viewer
- Data may be refreshed to provide the current view of the data
- When refreshed, the original query is re-run against the back end and the data in the spreadsheet is updated
This document uses a very simple example based on the Documents List. But, when applied to report output such as "Past Due Students", "Student Class Rosters", "Students on Hold Report", etc. it will become more obvious how useful having an active data source within an Excel spreadsheet can be. The data can be refreshed when needed and any analysis or tables or pivot tables based on the data will also be refreshed.
