I liked the original site best, but eventually got used to the new layout. It was clean and functional. This version is a mess. This is a deal a day site -- emphasis should be on the deal. It's way too cluttered and unfocused.

No; reWoot!
Not very phone friendly and way too many links in your face. I am sure there is a woot app but you shouldn't have to use an app for a website. May as well redirect to amazon.com now.
Not sure about the new look, but as long as I don't have to join facebook to find Woot deals I'll adapt. I think.
*Takes a deep breath* Ahh that new woot smell.
What does the square and triangle next to the avatar represent?

That would be great feedback to send in. See that pretty BETA FEEDBACK button at the top of every page.
So did the staff have a contest to see who could design the most cluttered screen? And yet for all the carp on the page you can't be bothered to give any details on the actual product being sold? I'll assume this is some pathetic attempt to "double" your clicks per day to appease your Amazon overlords? Trashy, ghetto design. It's a good textbook example of everything I hate about Web 2.0. Yeah, I went there. edit line----- I do like the enhanced account management features and being able to use my amazon logon, but the user experience starts with the page design, which is just a disaster.
It would be nice if this layout had a day and night version and changed through either the user or the time and its zone. I look for deals day and night so a natural change from light to dark would be nice.
What made WOOT so special was that it's ONE DAY, ONE DEAL model. Half of the fun was logging on to see what was there. From now on we will always know what is there... the same old stuff as everywhere else. Just loads more of it, brightly thrust upon us. there is no longer a difference between WOOT and everyone else. Just feels like a sell out.
Is anyone going to write about the PC?
The "Stuff You Bought" page is, well, simply amazing. While looking at the pictures of my previous buys, emotions were evoked. There they were (in glorious color no less): all my favorite shirt.woot tees which I wear with delight everywhere, my beloved vornado zippi fan...the list goes on. Okay, it's now officially love for the new site. It made me feel warm, cozy, valued, and part of a greater glory. Thank you Woot Gods.
Put WootPlus in thumbnails on the right instead of screaming at me like neon stores at the mall. THEN we'll talk.
The new Woot is pretty nice but what sucks is that the new version doesnt seem to work with the WootWatch iPhone app :-(
Ok, I've given it a few hours and - Clutter McClutter Pants - BRIGHT - I don't know, I think Woot has finally lost it's "je ne sais quoi". - This isn't Woot. It's Amazon's version of what they think Woot should be (and how it should make more moola) and in making the change the stripped the wootness right out of Woot. It should now be called Wootazon. - Everything just looks generic. - The stories were my favorite part and they aren't getting the limelight they deserve. In closing, What they've done here is taken a Bugatti Veyron and covered it in one of those tacky vehicle wraps with a boring advertisement on it. Sure it's a Bugatti, but it's advertising denture paste.

We've reached out to the iOS developer to fix this bug. In the interim we are building a workaround on our end.
People always resist change, me being one of them. I like things simple, however I am just so glad woot is back up I dont care if the screen looks slightly more "busy". Seriously woot, was there warnings I missed? When I tried to log on and it was "Under Maitenance" I was distraught. I think I can classify Woot! as an addiction now. I dont drink coffee, I just get my daily dose of woot when I wake up in the morning! Fact is people, the site has evolved, crying doesnt help you adapt and overcome! Embrace it and lets hope for an awesome woot! off soon (with those remote controlled fishing boats I missed last time that my husband has been wanting forever!!) ;-) Happy woot!ng <3
Since we can now login with an Amazon.com account, will there be a possibility of free shipping for Amazon Prime members?
Where is the "logout" button on the main page?

No, more like a indie geek rock band from Seattle has finally gone all the way mainstream. The reason they were popular is because they were indie, local and unique...now they are becoming Pop... but, I still love you woot...I am just dissapoint.
People complain so much. Don't like it, leave or don't buy. Nobody is forcing you to do anything. A society of crying and whining.

Mattroid wrote:so bright! *dies of blindness*
Hrm, you may be right. Someone needs to write a Woot Enhancement Suite to go along with the Reddit Enhancement Suite, so that they can build a "Night Mode." You'll get right on that right?
regal8lager wrote:How is this laptop from a gaming standpoint?
Benchmarks put the CPU at slightly above a netbook. This is a browse and mail machine.
The new site generally sucks.. It is WAY to cluttered. If you have to make changes, the product description page should be what we see as the "main" page. (http://www.woot.com/offers/toshiba-17-3-notebook) Stuff you bought link is a nice feature though. Time to leave beta feedback. It's ok if my Bunch of Change is cluttered though
"features" - With the tin-like speakers, it is difficult for two very close adults to watch a DVD without stopping every few minutes - each questioning the other - "What did she saw? Should we go back 30 seconds?" With two pair of headphone and splitter - same problem, but to a lesser extent. Also, cable from power wart seems determined to slowly back out of the laptop, you will not know it until the batteries level shuts down system.
As long as we're discussing the site here and not so much the deal, I'll post here what I posted on the thread about the redesign: No, no, no, no, no. This design is clutter-ific. The eye doesn't know where to go, plus the site has lost its personality, especially with the descriptions truncated and buried on "page 2." This design looks as cheap and gimmicky as every other deal-of-the-day site out there. The auto-scrolling "discuss this deal" is utterly useless, unless you sit and wait for it to scroll, whereas the previous LIST of quotes was useful AT A GLANCE. The Woot Plus is too prominently featured and distracts from the primary deal. Worse, the cutesy new font (reminiscent of the gawdawful Comic Sans) is used WAY too liberally, to the point of distraction. This is Web 2.0 for the sake of Web 2.0. It's been designed for the designer's own pleasure, and to drive more sales, but definitely NOT for a better user experience.
I love that there is a quick little formatting guide right to the comment box and one doesn't really have to open the guide in a new tab/window. Yay!

I would have hoped that Woot had this coding running on a private test site and the switchover should have taken less than an hour.
Dramatic Irony.

I whole-heartily agree! I would prefer to see a list of the quality posts regarding the item up for sale.
Absolutely will not work on gaming. Very very low end processor.
Why do laptop with Blu Ray reader? Yes I know the part is more money, but here at AMAZON I thought I had a choice of "one". New site: (1) No "cute" stories, and (2) Where is the ONE GIANT button to press. Sad, Very Sad
Dont like the new look at all, it looks way too busy. Please bring the old woot. For those of us who has been with woot for a long time, those pale color and big round yellow/orange button was a sense of pride. RIP old woot, meh new woot. I got my eyes on you and i can tell i dont like you already.
I'm not the biggest fan of this redesign, but as long as it doesn't require a Facebook authorization/login, I'm cool. Nothing pisses me off more than every site "conveniently syncing" to Facebook these days. I just need Facebook to stalk hot girls from high school. Everyone else can screw off.
if this is ur new format, I'll find somewhere elst to shop, this sucks ass. u can bleep this off the screen all u want, I ain't gonna deal with this format, ty for the memories n have a nice day
Having never gotten a Bouts of Consternation I now know what would be in one. It is the new Woot. Time to change my bookmarks to remove Woot since it is now just another totally redundant shopping site and not the quirky one deal a day I used to find interesting. I suppose I will now just hit up eBay with a random termin the search box for a Wootlike experience. Good bye Woot, I will miss you.

Global warming is quickly becoming the biggest threat to the long-term survival of America's wildlife. Changes are happening much faster than were predicted just a few years ago.
Average temperatures in the U.S. over the last century have already increased by more than one degree, with much greater increases in some regions like Alaska. Temperatures are expected to rise another 2-10 degrees by 2100. These changes are having noticeable effects on wildlife.

United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) has designated 5th June of every year as World Environment Day (WED). On this day and a few days before and after, UNEP collaborates with national governments to highlight and propagate environmental issues including pollution, conservation, and protection.
Webcoist describes how unprecedented climate change, lack of clean or renewable energy, extensive toxic waste generation, shortage of pure water, scarcity of food resources (in under developed and developing countries), unsustainable consumption (by industrialized countries), irresponsible land management, increasing number of endangered species, and genetic manipulation of public health are the top concerns of our fragile environment.
This is just a list and there are numerous other issues that affect our environment. There is no doubt that such information can cause anxiety and unpleasantness in most of us. At the same time, such lists should also act as a trigger and ensure that we take steps to conserve and protect the environment. Towards this, 2012's WED theme is Green Economy. UNEP defines Green Economy as one that is low carbon, resource efficient, and socially inclusive!
The host country Brazil is initiating processes to separate different types of trash and decrease the consumption and disposal of plastic bags. While Brazil is hosting WED, three countries – India, China, and United States – have to put in maximum efforts to conserve the environment. Did you know that these three countries are the biggest greenhouse gas emitters in the world?
WED in Bangalore
Having said that, namma Bengaluru will host some events to conserve and protect the environment on 5th June. Among them, Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) will plant four lakh saplings across the city starting from 5th June. While BBMP is proud to announce this initiative, you must also remember that it cut several trees (a couple of months back) in the city to make way for the metro! "A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory" sums their attitude aptly!
What's more, numerous banners highlighting environmental issues, including a one-kilometer banner in Cubbon Park, are part of BBMP's WED initiatives. Apparently, in the first week of June, these banners will be joined to form a 100 Km long banner that will be displayed on NICE road. Wait, BBMP's creative WED initiative does not stop here – this 100 Km long banner will soon be disintegrated to create beds, bed sheets, and hand bags and these will be distributed, free of cost, to old-age homes, hostels, and hospitals!
The fact remains that this is the first week of June and I have not yet heard or seen tree planting campaign preparations or eco-friendly banners. Apart from BBMP, an NGO called PRAKRUTHI and a newsmagazine called CitizenMatters have organized a Bring-Your-Own-Bag campaign in Jayanagar. Are you attending an eco-friendly event or campaign on 5th June? Do write to us and spread the message.

We are showing you the US version of our site: would you prefer a different location?
Smithfield Nocturne 2007
Who needs Alpine peaks or fields of sunflowers? An urban backdrop to a cycle race can be equally dramatic, and the setting for the inaugural Rapha/Condor Smithfield Nocturne helped put the event on the cycling calendar in spectacular fashion.
Smithfield Market reeks of history. London's butchers have been doing business there for 800 years. And as darkness fell on a hectic night of racing on the streets surrounding this cherished institution, it seemed like the Nocturne had been around forever too. Instant classic is the only way to describe it. The cycling was sensational. A crowd of 5,000 – from the merely curious to the dedicated fan – were bowled over. The bars and restaurants that dotted the course did some brisk business, and Robert Elms and Anthony McCrossan kept everyone up to speed with a superb marathon commentary effort. This wasn't just a warm-up to the Tour de France's visit to London – it was a fully-fledged event in its own right.
We've had Tour of Britain finishes on the Mall, but nothing quite like this had ever been tried in central London before – a major slice of the city given over to a festival of criterium-style racing that brought together the best of the amateur scene with some of the country's top pros. David Millar – who added lustre to the occasion by putting in a personal appearance – likened it to a Belgian kermesse and promised it would be a lot of fun.
Well, it was certainly that – and a whole lot more. It was epic, thanks in no small part to one of the most amazing thunderstorms people had ever seen. Given the choice, the visionaries from Rapha who were behind the Nocturne would probably have gone for the non-thunderstorm option. But the way the cyclists threw themselves into the fray regardless was truly heroic, and for us spectators it all added to the entertainment. Just so long as you had an umbrella or could squeeze into one of the marquees set up by the finish.
So who were these heroes? My personal No.1 has to be Richard Bailey, winner of the folding bike race, in which the 40 entrants, all adorned in business attire, set off Le Mans-style, running to their folded-up bikes, readying them in double-quick time, and then hurtling round the tight, 900m course. The sight of Richard tearing down the finishing straight in pouring rain in his jacket and tie will long live in the memory. It was like something out of Monty Python.
There were four other races. Craig Stevens of Ciclos Uno pipped George Brent of Addiscombe in the clubmen's Regional A Race that began proceedings; Ben Wilson of Cycling Weekly held off The Guardian's Matt Seaton in the All-Stars race for the cycling media; and the quartet from Soho-based Creative Couriers – three guys, one girl – proved themselves London's best messengers.
That left the top-of-the-bill elite race – an hour plus five laps – in which a 50-strong field featured such stars as the Olympic double-silver medallist Rob Hayles, Rapha/Condor's own Dean Downing, fresh from winning the Lincoln Grand Prix, and the newly-crowned National Criterium champion James McCallum.
For a long time it looked like London Dynamos' Warwick Spence might grab the glory as he skated through the puddles to build a 24-second lead in a brilliant solo break. But the chasing group caught him just in time before McCallum won the tactical battle to cross the line in front. A great climax to a great evening.
If you weren't there, bad luck. But the Smithfield Nocturne will be back in 2008.

Garvey International purchased by its president "1 am both flattered and gratified that [Mary Garvey Theroux] first made the offer to me, thus allowing me to continue the tradition of excel- lence, service and innovation ..." — Bob M. White, president of Garvey International ST. CHARLES — Bob M. White, a Kansas native who helped build Garvey International into an agribusiness powerhouse in grain -storage and rail-car leasing, now owns the firm. As a result, he's now also the owner of the world's largest grain elevator. The St. Charles resident, who had been the firm's president, has announced his purchase of the firm from members of the Garvey family. The St. Charles-based company, which is a diversified grain, feed and transportation firm, has annual sales that now exceed $100 million, White said. White did not disclose the purchase price. "The offer made by the Garvey family ownership to allow my purchase of Garvey International was a long-time goal," White said in a statement. "After much deliberation over a period of time, Mary Garvey Theroux had determined her own interestsand emphases were directed toward other pursuits," White added. "She was ready to sell. "I am both flattered and gratified that she first made the offer to me, thus allowing me to continue the tradition of excellence, service and innovation which I have established versus extending the offer to any of our competitors or other large conglomerates." White began his career with Garvey as a 19-year-old intern while still attending Wichita State University. White joined the company as a regular employee in 1975 and became its president in 1983. Over the years, he created, through purchase, both the company's rail-car leasing group (since sold) and its marine division. White's purchase includes Garvey International and its five current, wholly-owned subsidiaries: Garvey Processing Inc.; Garvey Grain Inc.; Garvey Marine Inc.; Northwestern Oklahoma Railroad; and Ottawa Export Inc. The processing firm has plants in Ottawa and North Kansas City., and manufactures products primari- ly for the dairy industry. The graln firm is a grain merchandising and storage firm with elevators in Wichi- ta, Attica, Clonmel, Dartmouth, Kalvesta, Sharon and Silica, Kan. The Wichita grain elevator" has approximately a 20-million-bushel capacity and is reputedly the world's largest grain elevator. Garvey Marine is the largest independent provider of barge-switching and storage services on the Illinois River, and operates 12 tugboats. The railroad is a shoreline railroad that provides switching services for rail cars carrying various products.: Ottawa Export is the export market- ing arm of Garvey International. The rail-car leasing wing was sold earlier this year. A nine-year resident of St. Charles, White is vice chairman of Delnor- Community Hospital in Geneva;

The city has a very strong aeronautical sector and boasts a high-tech community with 19th century roots and a 21st century heart. With a population of about 180,000, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, Huntsville apartments able to provide a family-focused atmosphere and great opportunities without the hustle and bustle of America's larger cities.
Searching for Huntsville apartments for rent can connect you with the city's storied history, which dates back to 1805. Named after Revolutionary War hero John Hunt, Huntsville grew quickly and became Alabama's first state capital in 1819. During the late 1950s, when the U.S. Army created NASA, Huntsville became known as "The Rocket City," and to this day still attracts a large number of astronauts and scientists. If you want to get involved in the local culture, check out the U.S. Space and Rocket Center and Sci-Quest for a fun, memorable experience.
However, although the space culture is extremely prevalent here, it's not the only thing going on. Huntsville is a vibrant city filled with culture, art, sports and games, eclectic shops and fine dining. Top attractions here include Big Spring Park, Bridge Street Town Centre, the Huntsville Ballet Company, Huntsville Symphony Orchestra and the Huntsville Botanical Garden.
As the city has a low cost of living index of 84.4, which is well below the national average, Huntsville apartments for rent are very popular with people who want to soak up the southern sun without breaking the bank. The low cost of rent of apartments in Huntsville, combined with easy access to schools, groceries, food and drink, entertainment and public transit, led AreaVibes to award the city an "Extremely Livable" livability score of 79. In Huntsville, you can expect to pay $3.60 for a gallon of gasoline, which makes it very easy to get around. Other average prices include $2.48 for a gallon of milk, $1.34 for a loaf of bread and $1.44 for a dozen eggs. With the picturesque backdrop behind you, Huntsville can easily feel like home.
Huntsville has a strong association with the space research industry, so it goes without saying that technological manufacturing and space engineering are the most influential job sectors here. According to the Huntsville Chamber of Commerce, the largest employers here include the U.S. Army's Redstone Arsenal and NASA Marshall Space Flight Center. For those seeking other opportunities, Huntsville is also home to Toyota, Lockheed Martin and Boeing manufacturing bases.

Cran Strawberry Sauce
The Charlie Foundation is pleased to present this Ketogenic Diet approved recipe with the collaboration of our partner site ketocook.com
Cran Strawberry Sauce (101 calories)
Ingredients :
3:1 Ratio
- 22g fresh strawberries
- 22g fresh cranberries
- 12g butter
- 20g water
- sweetener of choice
- Chop the strawberries and cranberries in half.
- Put the berries, water, butter and sweetener in a small 8 inch non stick pan.
- Heat the mixture over medium heat.
- Cover with a lid and cook until the berries are soft, about 1-2 minutes.
- Use the back of a silicone spatula to mash the berries while they are still in the pan.
- Cook until almost all of the water has evaporated.
- Remove the mixture from the pan and store in a small bowl. If the butter looks separated after removing from the heat, stir until it is combined.
- As it cools the natural pectin in the berries will hold onto the butter.
Some things to remember:
- This is best served room temperature or cold
High Fiber Rolls
The Charlie Foundation is pleased to present this Ketogenic Diet approved recipe that was especially prepared for the Family Day event of our 3rd Symposium with the collaboration of our partner site ketocook.com
High Fiber Rolls
Ingredients (makes 4 rolls):
4:1 Ratio
3:1 Ratio - 88 calories per roll
2:1 Ratio - 63.5 calories per roll
MAD (approximately 1.25:1) - 43 calories per roll
- Pre-heat the oven to 300 degrees.
- Mix the egg, oil, water (if using) and vinegar together very well.
- Add the flax meal, psyllium husks, baking powder, baking soda and salt to the egg mixture. Use a small spatula to combine the ingredients very well.
- Once the ingredients are combined, let the dough "rest" for 5 minutes. It will appear very wet, but as it sits, the dough will stiffen up to the constancy of very stiff oatmeal.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. You may weigh them on the scale for accuracy (total weight of ingredients in raw state divided by 4).
- Use wet hands (to prevent sticking) and shape the dough as desired. Place them on the baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes.
- One baked roll (1/4th of recipe) weighs between 21-23 grams and has 2.3g protein, 10.65g fat and 0.7g carbohydrate.
- The fiber content of each roll is 2.5g and is not included in the carbohydrate value.
- This recipe has been calculated according to the recommended serving size (1 teaspoon or 3g) of psyllium husks for children ages 6-12. Please ask your dietitian about how much psyllium to include in your diet.
- The ideal amount of water and oil combined is 29g. To calculate a different ratio, reduce the oil to meet your ratio and add enough water to compensate and equal 29g.
Hamburger on a Stick & Broccoli-Slaw
The Charlie Foundation is pleased to present the first in a series of Ketogenic Diet approved recipes with the collaboration of our partner site ketocook.com.
Forget the buns! Serve food on a stick, it usually goes over well with kids and adults alike. This is a typical grilled hamburger, deconstructed and put on a stick. It has all of the traditional ingredients, including the pickle on top. I chose to use mustard as the flavor for the dipping sauce, but you could use sugar-free ketchup, Walden Farms brand BBQ sauce or ketchup, mayonnaise or even ranch dressing. The mustard dip makes a large portion, so if you're not a "heavy dipper" I would recommend some fat to be served on the side in a way that you prefer.
A hamburger can not be served without a side dish! I made this broccoli slaw as a different twist on regular coleslaw. The broccoli is raw, but you could lightly steam it to make the broccoli more mellow. Additionally, if pomegranate seeds are not available, use a little shredded apple.
The entire meal pictured is a total of 427 calories and a 4:1 ratio. The broccoli slaw is a separate recipe from the hamburger and dip. They do not need to be served together.
Hamburger on a Stick (253 calories 4:1 ratio) (Notation: casein-free if ghee is used in place of butter)
- 29g 80% lean ground beef, RAW
- 5g fresh tomato, cut into one chunk
- 3g iceberg lettuce cut the same size as the tomato
- 3g dill pickle, I used Bubbies brand
- 15g butter, room temperature
- 7g olive oil
- 10g yellow mustard
- salt/pepper, garlic powder
- wooden skewer
Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from catching on fire! Season the raw meat with salt, pepper and a pinch of garlic powder. Press it onto the skewer into a ball making sure it is an even thickness around all sides. Carefully grill the meat until it is cooked thoroughly.
Skewer the lettuce, tomato and pickle on the end of the skewer.
Mix the room temperature butter, oil and mustard together until it is well combined. You will need to use a fork or a small whisk to help the butter blend in. Serve the dip with the hamburger stick.
Broccoli Slaw (174 Calories 4:1 Ratio)
- 29g raw broccoli15g Hellmann's Mayonnaise
- 7.6 gpomegranate seeds
- 7g macadamia nuts, crushed into small pieces
- 2g cider vinegar
- 1g Truvia
- salt/pepper
Wash the broccoli well. Cut the florets off the thick stem and break them into very small pieces.
Use a shredder attachment on a Cuisinart and shred the stems. Mix the stems and the florets together very well to evenly incorporate them. If you want to steam the broccoli, now is the time! Weigh the portion you need and then lightly steam.
Finish by mixing in the remaining ingredients and season to your liking. It is best if you allow this recipe to sit overnight so all the flavors have time to blend together and the broccoli has time to soften a little.
Almond Crackers
Almond Crackers
This is a simple 4 ingredient cracker recipe submitted by Nevin's mom (see Keto Kids). The crackers are crisp and mild in flavor and taste great with a spread or dip. Nevin likes these with a spread made of cream cheese, butter, dash of cinnamon and 2 drops of carb-free sweetener. She also eats these with a mixture of peanutbutter and butter for a snack. You will find these listed (as prepared crackers) in the Fat Category of KetoCalculator as "Almond Crackers". A one inch square cracker (2.5gm) has 17 Calories, 0.16gm Carbohydrate and is a 3.27:1 Ratio.
- 30gm Almond Flour ( whole ground blanched almonds)
- 20gm Macadamia Nuts, dry roasted with salt - finely ground in a blender
- 15gm Olive Oil
- 15gm Egg white - raw
- 1/8th teasoon Salt (optional)
- Mix together all ingredients until dough becomes stiff.
- Line a cookie sheet pan with foil. Spread dough thin into an approximate 8 x 6 inch rectangle by patting dough flat with a spatula.
- Using a spatula, cut a grid into the dough to form approximately equal cracker squares.
- Bake at 325 degrees F for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
- Allow to cool before removing from pan. Store in a zip-lock bag or airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze.
A tasty stack of Silver Dollar Pancakes. This simple 3 ingredient recipe uses ground macademia nuts instead of flour. Chopped blueberries, peaches or pecans will make these even tastier. Pancakes can be frozen and reheated easily in the toaster oven or microwave. Top pancakes with whipped cream and or butter. Syrup choices include Walden Farms Sugar-free Pancake Syrup (listed in KetoCalculator) or a few drops of Davanci Pancake Syrup Flavoring which may be mixed with butter. This recipe includes gram weights to guide you in creating a recipe and provides 300 Calories, 4:1 Ratio.
- 30gm Macadamia nuts - roasted
- 28gm Egg, raw - mixed well
- 6gm Oil - Canola, Soybean, Olive or any vegetable oil
- Optional: 3 drops Vanilla Extract
- Grind macadamia nuts in a blender until finely chopped.
- Mix egg and oil into chopped macadamia nuts.
- Optional: Add 3 drops Vanilla Extract
- Spray a nonstick skillet with oil-spray.
- Drop batter into desired size circles into heated pan. Turn over with a spatula when browned.
Squash Curry Soup
Squash Curry Soup
Butternut squash is a mild-tasting vegetable that is rich in Vitamin A and popular among kids. This flavorful combination tastes great warm or cold. Calculate this recipe to the desired ratio using about the same amount of coconut milk as squash; 1gm of Curry Powder per serving (2gm for stronger flavor); and 5-15gm of raw onion per serving depending on carbohydrate restriction. We used Spice Island brand Curry Powder which is very aromatic but not spicy hot.
- Butternut squash - cooked
- Coconut milk (not low-fat)
- Curry powder
- Onions - raw
- Olive oil
- Bake a butternut squash; cut it down the middle then scoop out the strings and seeds. Turn both pieces face down on a foil covered baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes at 375 degrees. You can also cook cut the flesh into chunks and microwave until soft.
- Sautee raw onions in olive oil in a small sauce pan.
- Add cooked squash, coconut milk and curry powder and mix well with a silicone spatula, mashing squash into liquids.
- Simmer for 10 minutes on low heat to blend flavors. Water may be added for thinner consistency. Soup may be refrigerated for 2 days or frozen.
The Avocado
Avocados are the perfect food for the ketogenic diet. They are rich in monounsaturated fat and very low in carbohydrate. Avocados also have 60% more potassium than bananas. They are also a great source of B vitamins, as well as vitamin E and vitamin K. They have the highest fiber content of any fruit. There's evidence to show that including avocados daily in a (regular) diet lowers cholesterol and triglycerides. The Hass avocado shown here is the most common variety available in the US. The larger, greener avocados grown in Florida are much lower in fat and higher in carbohydrate.
- For ready to eat avocados, choose those that are slightly soft when flesh is pressed.
- Firm avocados will ripen faster when stored next to other fruit (within 2-3 days).
- After cutting open the avocado, leave the pit inside and the skin on to help keep the remainder fresh.
- You may freeze cut up avocado but wrap it with plastic wrap to avoid air contact which browns it. Browning is not harmful though.
- Avocados taste great plain but also in omeletts, in salads, or mashed with mayonnaise as a dip for raw vegetables.
Chicken Vegetable Soup
Chicken Vegetable Soup
Variations of chicken soup recipes were submitted by several readers and were combined into a base recipe that can be easily modified. Soups are a great way to introduce vegetables to children who are not accustomed to eating them since they are more mellow tasting after simmering in broth. A pinch of a dried herb may be added for flavor such as Thyme or Sage. If you are preparing steamed fresh vegetables for other meals, remember to freeze the extras for soup that you will make in the future. Similarly, you can freeze small portions of roasted meat or poultry too.
- Butter, Olive or other oils
- Raw vegetables finely chopped such as celery, broccoli, spinach, onions, carrots, cauliflower, green beans, squash, peppers (use at least 2 or more)
- Chicken dark meat - no skin - cooked - finely chopped
- Broth, Swanson Chicken 99% fat-free- canned
- Optional: salt and pepper
- Additonal ingredients that may be added: Shiratake Miracle Noodles, cream, cheese (after step 5)
- Place butter or oil in small saucepan and heat until just beginning to sizzle.
- Add chopped fresh vegetables and sauté for 2 minutes stirring frequently.
- Add chopped chicken (or other meat) and continue sautéing to allow fat to absorb for about 1 minute.
- Pour in the broth then stir occasionally.
- Add a pinch of salt, pepper and a dried herb if desired such as Thyme, Sage or Basil.
- Reduce heat and simmer for 5-10 minutes on low heat.
Veggies with Dip
Veggies with Dip
Raw vegetables such as green peppers, tomatoes, carrots and onions are full of nutrients, antioxidants and are also excellent sources of fiber. Mayonnaise can be seasoned with a pinch of Dill Weed or flavored with a commercial salad dressing for variations in taste. This may prepared as a snack or part of a meal. Check out the salad bar at your area grocery store to find these vegetables freshly cut for convenience.
- Green peppers - sliced
- Tomatoes
- Carrots
- Red onions
- Mayonnaise
- Season mayonnaise with a pinch of Dill Weed.
- Serve raw vegetables with mayonnaise dip.
Garden Salad with Vinaigrette Dressing
Garden Salad with Vinaigrette Dressing
Salads are a healthy, high-fiber meals and as simple as 2 ingredients. This salad meal combines several vegetables with a tangy vinaigrette dressing. Hard cooked eggs and pecans provide protein; onions and tomatoes provide a rich contrast of flavor and are contain many nutrients. Avocados are one of the most nutrient dense foods as well as a healthy dose of monounsaturated fats that help to lower cholesterol and fiber to aid in digestion. The Hass Avocado is highest in fat and lowest in carbohydrate. Select this recipe in KetoCalculator, Standard Meals.

Here is a page with the scrambler, based on maintaining the old WCA format.
It does the following:
- Place a random edge at BL, ignoring centers (12 equal possibilities).
- Place a random edge at BR, ignoring centers (10 equal possibilities). This should probably be condensed with the last step some time, but it's not too costly to have them separate for now.
- Random L4E alg (96 equal equal possibilities) - list taken from Michael's index. This doesn't ignore centers, so it can be optimized even further.
- Randomly "AUF" each center piece and tip (3^8 equal possibilities).
Each of the 75582720 states is produced with equal probability, relying only on the PRNG for true randomness.
I would like to see it become the WCA scrambler for pyraminx, unless someone finally takes the initiative to write a small optimal solver that gives random scrambles and images.

Modern and Contemporary Art Sailor with Guitar 1914 Jacques Lipchitz, American (born Lithuania), 1891 - 1973 Bronze Currently not on view 1949-78-1 Gift of Mrs. Morris Wenger in memory of her husband, 1949 |
LabelThe earliest work by Lipchitz in the Museum's collection, Sailor with Guitar marks an important transition in the artist's career, in which the vestiges of his academic training gave way to the influence of Cubist painters like Pablo Picasso and Diego Rivera. This "proto-cubist" work still retains a degree of realism, however, since it was based on Lipchitz's direct observation of a young Spanish sailor attempting to charm a pretty girl by dancing and playing his guitar. |

I hope you will be as thrilled with the NWSG as we are - we have only 8 acres, but know it attracts deer. A neighbor about half mile away had 80 acres in it, and the number of deer we would see there was phenomenal. He just converted it over to crops though, so now we're the only NWSG in the area which makes me smile. By the time we're done we should have three interconnecting pastures with a total of about 20 acres.
Don't let the price of seeds shock you too much. And the price of wildflowers per pound will blow you away even more. Just know that in the long run you should be pleased.
Also remember it will take 3-4 years before you really start to see these things take hold so be patient. The field may look pretty ugly over the next couple of years.
Be prepared to spend at least a couple hours with the PLC - ours always gives us plenty of time when he visits. The first time we had one visit we actually video taped him so we could review what he was telling us later because we knew we'd never remember it all.
Best of luck with the visit, let us know how things go.

Here are five tips to help you save time and money in the supermarket!
1. Bargain bins. In the back corner of every store, there's a bin where dented and soon-to-be expired products are placed. Take a look at what's there, you might find something you can use for half price or less! My friend Sam always looks for the marked-down items at Fresh & Easy, which she says she finds in the late afternoon or early evening.
2. Follow the horseshoe. All the fresh things you need to buy, from dairy to produce to bakery goods to meat are all located in a horseshoe pattern around the edge of the store, to make sure you have to go through the entire store to get to them. If you don't want to be tempted by prepared and packaged foods, head first in a horseshoe around the store. Then, see what else you need — or just hurry and get out of there!
3. Make a list and stick to it! I know it's an old chestnut, but it really works! Every Wednesday morning, I read every single major market ad online to post it online for you to see the new week's grocery specials. (Click here to see my weekly specials post). Then, armed with that information, I make a list and do quick surgical strikes at the markets. I buy what's on sale, fast, and then I get out of there. Strolling around encourages impulse purchases, as does bringing your kids along!
4. Peruse the upper and lower shelves. Believe it or not, food companies pay grocery stores for their shelf positions, knowing that most of the time, your eye is going to hit the middle shelves. That's why you can save some money by scanning high and low, looking for brands that don't pay those kinds of fees and hence might cost a bit less. Case in point: Cheaper bagged cereals on the breakfast aisle.
5. Buy more in a single trip. Every visit to the supermarket presents more opportunities for impulse purchases that drive up your bill. The authors of "America's Cheapest Family" say they only go to the grocery store once a month, freeze their milk and buy produce in bulk, using up items first that don't last, like strawberries, and saving fresh items like apples that can be eaten later in the month. I can't really see myself only shopping once a month, but I've adopted some of their habits, like buying more apples and carrots when they're on sale and stashing them in the bottom of the fridge for later, since they last a long time.
How do you save money at the supermarket? If you've got tips, post them below!

Just buy what you need per trip. Do not try to stock up or you'll find yourself with a bunch of crap nobody wants to eat.
Interesting. I do the exact opposite. I stock up massively on whatever is on sale and I have a coupon for. I cook out of my pantry and I only shop for sales. By doing it this way, I average about $50 a week for a family of 4.
The best way is to EAT BEFORE YOU GROCERY SHOP! I am much less apt to purchase the carton of carb crap if I've already had lunch or dinner and THEN go get groceries!
Don't forget the coupons from the Sunday paper. Many times they go hand-in-hand with the store sales.
Try to buy only stuff that's on sale.
Try out various stores in your area using approx. the same list each week. I've found that the price at Super Target is many times 40% or more cheaper than the price at the standard supermarkets even with their coupons. And Target accepts manufactor coupons on top of that.
I look at the grocery ads, but I stock up only on those sale items that I use all the time. I don't use coupons much anymore as they are often times not for food items or are for packaged things that are over the top in sodium, calories and fat. Although I do buy some canned and frozen items, I try to buy fresh and keep it balanced nutritionally and simple.
No fancy recipes that have pricy ingredients and we don't eat out much. It is just too expensive to jump on to the restaurant and market bandwagon teases. I stick to my list.
Here's our interesting observation of how grocery stores makes money. I and my wife went to Ralphs and went to fruit section. cherries was on sale price tag said $1.49 in bright yellow and we bought 1 bag of red cherries (2 pounds – around $3) and 1 bag of white cherries (1.25 pounds – less than $2 – we were thinking!!). Finished shopping happily and came home. We rarely go thru the bill. My wife went thru the bill and shocked to see the cost of white cherries around $7.5 and saw the cost of cherries was $5.99. I went to the stores and went to the stand and noticed that the cost of white cherries was in fact $5.99 but the tag was in dull color and almost invisible when looked next to the brightly colored "on sale" price tags. The bottom line is – we should be watchful and check the price before and after you buy.
BEER! Everything else will KILL you!!!!
But the whole chicken instead if prebutchered parts, then cut it up yourself ( I usually skin it and cut it up into pieces, then slice as needed for various dinners and freeze in individual ziploc bags). For example:
1. Cut off wingtips and add to carcass & giblets minus liver to become chicken stock (with recovered meT for chicken pot pie later)
2. Cut one of the breast halves in half again, then take that lower quarter, the other breast half, and the tenders and keyhole and cut into small pieces and freeze for stir fry later.
3. Take all the remaining pieces and freeze for cooking later.
That wAy I can get three meals out of the chicken for my family of six.
I make my lists according to store ads that come in the mail. I then section my list according to stores. Store ads are best for comparison shopping ahead of time. Also be careful at Target/Walmart because though they have some hits,but some things are neck and neck with the supermarkets so don't get carried away in those places! I don't go all over the place each week but depends on which place has great deals.
Produce-Farmers market/sprouts
specialty/just want to try tasty dish-trader joes has tasty stuff often
Bakery-Vons,only supermarket I'd buy a cake from. Really good there.(everything else in there is way too expensive compared to other stores).
Stater Bros-meat,TP&paper towels are pretty good price here every week. If not here then go to Costco for Bounty.
Winco Foods-most of my list is covered here. Everything is so cheap,but that can sometimes be a bad thing when it comes to quality. They carry all the name brands for prices similar if not cheaper than Walmart/Target
Walmart/TArget-household needs,food,health/beauty items,ect.
oh and 99 cent store/Dollar tree/Big Lots/Grocery OUtlet are okay to fill in the gaps from time to time. Only complaint with Grocery outlet is that their merchandise tends to be really close to expiration date than other discount store(eg..Dollar tree/99). Defeats the purpose if you have to hurry and eat everything by a certain date. But as long as you check the dates,you can get some name brand stuff in there for cheap. But not really worth going out of your way because they do sell a lot of off brand,almost expired stuff. better off going to 99 cents store! More convienient and shockingly a little better on not selling too close to expired merchandise,lol!
so says,
you mentioned that you buy the bounty paper towels from Costco. if i could, i would recommend that you buy the kirkland signature paper towels. i would definitely say that those paper towels are better than the name brand ones. i used to buy the bounty and they were good, no doubt about it. then one day i bought brawny, and they were awful! the next time i decided to try the kirkland signature paper towels because they were so much cheaper than bounty, and i was pleasantly surprised at how good they are. they are longer sheets and are better quality then bounty. i kid you not! anyway, i dont want to sound like i work for the kirkland signature brand, so i leave you with that bit of advice. i'm just mentioning it cause it's a good deal.
Aw, you're giving away all my secrets!
Here's another: I always check "per ounce" prices. When I can, I try to hold the product to less than 10 cents per ounce.
Save money, Go alone, don't take your husband or kids with you. They will add thing to your cart that no one needs. Husbands are worse than kids, they never check the prices.
Actually, my wife would disagree with you. At the height of the coupon frenzy (they used to double unlimited coupons), I bought $205 worth of groceries for $4.99, and that was because I bought a TV guide at full price ($.75). In fairness, I worked for the LA Times (Commerical Delivery), so getting 100 stacks of coupons was easy!
The trick is is to be clever with your shopping. I offer the following tips:
1. Check the deals at all the stores – With them being posted online, it is easy to compare.
2. Discount Bin – I have found some real gems in here, so it never hurts to look.
3. Buy items that are on-sale and that can be used for "other purposes" – I will buy a ham when it goes on-sale, cut it up and freeze it…for breakfast meat! My wife and I will have a big breakfast on Sundays, so a thick ham steak is always a nice treat!
4. Stock up on the "on-sale" items – I will buy a lot of whatever is on sale, and stock up. This way, I am always paying a discount for my groceries. There are standards that I need, like fresh fruit, eggs, milk, etc, but even then, I check the prices of the supermarkets before buying.
5. Be creative – I will buy something that I don't normally eat if it is on sale and is something I may like. I go conservative here, but sometimes things I am not sure about turn out to be real gems. And, if they are new products, chances are they will go on sale again.
If you use coupons, there is a GREAT deal right now on the LA Times. 19 cents per week for the Sunday only paper. YES 19 CENTS! I paid for a year and purchased two copies. At $19 per year, it more than covers all the savings I'll get from two sets of coupons I'll get each Sunday.
The code to use to get this deal when you subscribe is 460024.
I also recommend that if you find a coupon that is an excellent deal, purchase extras on Ebay. It's usually less than $1.00, including shipping, to get a stack of 10, 20 or more. For instance, there was a coupon for $4.00 off Nivea Body Wash for Women. The body wash was $3.99 at Walmart, so FREE! I purchased a stack of 20 for $5.00 on Ebay, so each extra bottle I bought with those coupons still only cost me $.25! And I'm going to smell great until I die. LOL! I usually try to find friends I can split them with when it's so many, especially if it's something I know will go bad or I'll grow tired of by the time I use them.
Any coupon for freebie items is good to buy in extras on Ebay, like razors, shaving cream, etc. Even with the cost of the coupons, you're usually getting expensive items for a few cents.
I always hit the 'bargain bin", actually a shopping cart here.
Thats where I get all of the over-priced pastries marked down, the neighbors go through a lot of that stuff.
Here they had Mexico tomatoes for close to $3 a pound, one good sized one is almost a pound and not many bought them, then they hit the bin at 3 for 99-cents. Same with iceberg lettuce, $2.98 a head, forget it! By the time that hits the bin for 99-cents, no one wants it.
I could skip shopping for a few months with my stocked-up canned, frozen and dried beans, peas, pasta, etc.

text: Dorian J. Fuller '04C never thought he'd be working in the fast-paced world of Finance. But nearly a decade after his St. John's graduation, this former English major is immersed in Business, and he has no intentions of turning back. "I always had a passion for language – the texture and sound of words," Fuller explained. "But when I graduated, I was intent on marrying my girlfriend, and I needed a job to quickly stabilize my life. I was an English major and Philosophy minor, but I found that Finance – specifically Compliance – was well suited to my skill set." It didn't take long for Fuller to get bit by the Finance bug. "I'm hooked," he joked. "I was a little intimidated at first, but I decided to just dive right in and I've never looked back." All in all, that decision worked out wonderfully, as Fuller currently serves as Vice President of Compliance and Risk Review at Barclays, one of the world's most prominent financial services provider. He is responsible for managing the risk associated with his firm's high-profile transactions, ensuring that Barclays avoids any potential negative publicity. "What we do is make sure that all of our policies and protocols are smart with respect to managing risk," he said. "I deal with a lot of policies and procedures, but I'm grateful that my degree at St. John's – though not in Finance – taught me how to pick up on information quickly, how to pull data apart and fix problems." In addition to the education he received at St. John's, Fuller also gained valuable leadership experience on campus by serving as President of Haraya – the University's Pan-African Students' Coalition – and President of Student Programming Board, an organization that helps to establish social and recreational programs on campus. "During my presidency, especially in regards to Haraya, I'd say the stars were aligned," he explained. "I had an amazing executive board, and we were able to build our connections to a lot of different areas of campus. The dorms had just been built and Residence Life was just emerging, so we ended up growing the organization to almost 200 members." In many ways, Fuller laid the groundwork for what Haraya has become today – one of the University's most popular student organizations. And although he can look back proudly on what he accomplished during his student years, he can't help but be amazed at how far both Haraya and campus life have come since then. Today, Fuller gives back to St. John's by providing mentoring opportunities through the Count on Alumni for Career Help (COACH) program, a unique initiative in which students speak with alumni professionals about their careers and particular industries. "I recently went out to a nice lunch with one of my mentees, where we discussed how he could enhance his resume," he said. "Also, I connected him with a number of people within my network, so hopefully that can help to kickstart his job search." Although Fuller may not have originally planned to go from English major to Compliance professional, his career has certainly been fulfilling, and he's glad that he can share those experiences with today's St. John's students. He hopes to one day obtain either a Law degree or an M.B.A., and is excited to continue climbing the corporate ladder. "It's challenging out there," he said. "But with a strong network like ours, there are a lot of opportunities for students. And I know firsthand that no matter what you major in, a St. John's education will prepare you for anything."

ANN ARBOR, Mich., Oct. 29, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Affinia Group Inc., President and Chief Executive Officer Terry McCormack today announced his plans to step down from his position on March 31, 2014 after more than 40 years of leadership in the automotive aftermarket. He has also notified the Affinia Group Inc. Board of Directors he will resign as a member of the Board effective March 31, 2014. At that time, Terry will assume a role as special advisor to the Chairman of the Board, James McElya. The company has named Affinia Global Filtration President Keith Wilson to serve as President and Chief Executive Officer effective April 1, 2014.

"Terry has dedicated his career to ensuring the automotive aftermarket industry has access to high-quality, competitive products and innovative customer solutions," said James McElya, chairman of Affinia's Board of Directors. "Terry has been an outstanding leader within the industry and for Affinia, which he and his leadership team successfully transformed from a North American manufacturer into a true global leader in the automotive industry.
"We have been engaged in internal succession planning since last April and are continuing in our preparation to transition corporate leadership to Keith Wilson next spring," McElya said.
McCormack and Wilson will work together over the coming months to transition CEO responsibilities as the company makes plans to relocate its global headquarters. Affinia recently announced plans to move its corporate headquarters to Gastonia, N.C., where Affinia Global Filtration is based, in 2014.
McCormack began his career in the automotive aftermarket in 1973 with Dana Corporation. He joined Affinia Group Inc., as chief executive officer, when it was formed in 2004 from several of Dana's business groups.
"Terry's knowledge of the industry has been a great value to Affinia Group, and we are pleased that Terry will continue to share his insights and leadership with Affinia through his new advisory role," said McElya.
Keith Wilson has served as president of Affinia's Global Filtration Group since 2008. He joined Dana Corporation in 1984 as a sales and marketing specialist with the company's Spicer Axle Division. Wilson served in various management positions within Dana's axle, driveshaft and gasket products businesses until being tapped in 2000 to lead the filtration group as vice president and division manager of WIX Filtration Product Division. In the fall of 2004, Wilson was appointed vice president and general manager for Affinia's Under Hood Group.
Under Wilson's guidance, Affinia Global Filtration has achieved exceptional growth in sales and earnings performance. The Filtration group has been recognized for excellence by the industry and by its customers, including winning an unprecedented nine Spirit of Napa Awards from NAPA Auto Parts for supplier service and performance.
"I'm proud to have worked with an outstanding leadership team and the thousands of passionate, dedicated Affinia people who protect, grow and enhance our brands, while providing world class customer service every day from their facilities and offices around the world," McCormack said.
"I have known Keith Wilson for nearly three decades, including the past 13 years where he has consistently grown our Filtration Group through business strategy, creative vision and an unwavering commitment to our customers," McCormack said. "Keith's leadership will ensure Affinia Group continues on its path of being an innovative world leader for quality products and services."
Affinia Group Inc. is an innovative global leader in the design, manufacture, distribution and marketing of industrial grade products and services, including extensive offerings of aftermarket parts for automotive and heavy-duty vehicles.

I am not a person who like kids, maybe because I am still like a kid. But somehow, there is this little kiddo who holds a very special place in my heart, a special bond which I could not explain. To me, he is a gift to the family. A gift to replace the wound in my heart when my mum passed away. Yes, this special one is my nephew, who was born exactly 5 years ago; 10 months after my mum passed away. I was in deep grief back then, so when my nephew was born, I was really happy and felt blessed to have an additional member in the family. My sis named him as Nathan, in Hebrew means 'Gift' which I find a perfect choice for this bundle of joy.
My sis always thought that I was a very lucky person, so initially she thought of delivering her first child on the same day as my birth date. Well, it didn't go according to her plan as her doctor had to move house (DUH!), hence, Nathan was born 2 days ahead of mine. Being born a Sagittarius and in the year of Horse (exactly just like me) probably explains further the reason why I am so fond of him.
Sadly, we are so far apart. My sis and I takes turn to visit each other yearly and despite the little time we spent together, I am very sure Nathan also has a special spot for me in his heart. I love the way he calls me 'Yi-yeh'. It is supposed to be 'Yi yi' but then with his Aussie slang, it went a bit off tune. Nevertheless it still melts my heart whenever he calls me 'Yi-yeh' and claimed I am the best (for anything, everything.. hahaha). Am not boasting as I have clear evidence here:
Going through my album, I never realised that I actually took quite a number of photos of him enjoying his food. Yes, he is a great potential foodie! While kids his age idolise superheroes like Spiderman and Batman, I was told that his recent idol is Jamie Oliver and his current favourite show is Iron Chef, a Japanese series on cooking competition. My sis is so lucky as food is never a problem with this boy as he loves his fruits and veggies as much as he loves his meat. And guess what is his favourite? Garlic and mushrooms and he called spring onions and parsley as "choy choy" (veggie). Surprisingly, he also loves crab since the age of 2!! Here are some of the photos of him enjoying his food.
Nathan is turning 5 today. I don't feel sad for not being there as I know, he is coming back to visit me at my new house soon next year. Tickets to HK Disneyland already paid....so, am looking forward to having a blast time with him.
Special message to Nathan:
Yi-yeh, Paul Shuk-Shuk and Gung Gung (Green Goblin) wish you a Happy 5th Birthday! Be good boy and big pressies await you here.

Security check
At the airport you will have to go through security control before you can proceed to the gate area. You will be required to place items such as overcoats and laptop computers onto a conveyor belt for X-ray scanning. Small items, such as watches and coins, should be placed in your carry-on bag or jacket pocket.
To pass through security check, you must prove that you are travelling on the same day. You can do this in several different ways:
- If you are departing from Finland, you will be requested to show one of the following:
- a printout of an e-ticket,
- a reservation confirmation sent as a text message or e-mail displayed on a mobile phone or a laptop computer, or

The Gulf Islands National Seashore recently announced that major construction of facilities at Opal Beach is complete and visitors may now reserve select picnic pavilions. Park staff began manning the newly constructed entrance station July 11 to provide information and collect entrance fees for visitors to both the Gulf and Sound sides of Opal Beach.
Although major construction has been completed, GINS said recovery from the 2004-2005 storm seasons is still in progress. Asphalt and debris still are scattered and visible. GINS urges visitors to wear shoes while walking on the beach or wading. Some finishing work and installation of showers at the clusters continues and will be completed in upcoming weeks. For safety reasons and for the protection of park resources, visitors should not enter posted closed areas.
