Quinoa: The new Pasta Salad Ingredient!
7 people found the following review helpful
Posted by KiMaLi From Utah on Apr 16, 2013
Purchased at iHerb
I'm not sure just how to pronounce this but what I hear most often is key-no-a. I speak English but I'm amazed at how often I'm correceted on how to pronounce things. Quinoa is a pretty new item I think to most of us in the USA. I have been selling a lot of it on here and I've only been selling on here for about 2 weeks. I've sold about 6 bags in that time. I have a bag at home myself. I work at a grocery store and IHerb sells this for 3.00 cheaper, so you can see that their prices are good and fair. A woman at the store says that Quinoa is a very healthy and gluten free product. She recommended using it in any of your pasta salad recipes and says it is very tasty. I have yet to try it, but everyone I ask about it seems to be raving about it. If you found this review helpful please click on the yes button. Please remember to check out our daily and weekly specials for more terrific savings! Then go over to the freebies section and pick out a little something for yourself!
Maybe the Best Quinoa Available
2 people found the following review helpful
Posted by HawaiianViking From Hawaii on Jan 09, 2014
Purchased at iHerb
If you're reading this, you probably already know that Quinoa is something that you ought to be eating; It's nature's most perfect protein and it's worth noting that it's especially high in Lysine, a quality that's somewhat rare in plant-based protein. Compared to light-colored varieties, Royal Black Quinoa has a slightly earthier, nuttier flavor and its rich, dark color provides more visual appeal than common Quinoa's oatmeal-like appearance. It can be prepared simply, as rice, but I like it best when it's cooked with coconut milk, as part of a vegetarian curry; Try adding macadamias to your prepared quinoa — it's delicious. I like that Alter Eco, Royal Black Quinoa, is both organic and fairly-traded, and the price is reasonable. I only wish that it were available in larger quantities.
Heathly food!

"There is nothing that should be taken seriously about softball … You should be out here drinking, having a beer, hanging out with your buddies. We do our best to make it as unserious as possible," said Jess Horning of Liquid Blue Events, who has been playing softball in the area for about 18 years.
To keep that spirit of fun alive for even longer throughout the year, the City of Sparks, in cooperation with Red's Golden Eagle Grill, will be adding the Fall Ball season to its adult softball program. This first fall season will run from Oct. 15 to Nov. 20.
Former general manager at Red's Golden Eagle Grill, Brian Eggers originally came up with the idea to introduce a fall season to boost local participation in adult softball and increase revenue for the city and Red's.
"I noticed that we had a lot of Indian Summers going on and there's no reason not to keep the recreation going on … These fields are an absolute gem. They are a gift to the community," Eggers said of the facility at Golden Eagle Regional Park.
While the new fall league will provide players a chance to play softball for an even longer period throughout the year, it remains uncertain whether new players will participate.
"We are hoping to find some new players that might have time available to play in the fall, but we expect the majority to be the die-hard players that want to continue to play," said Sparks Recreation Supervisor and Nevada Amateur Softball Association Commissioner Tony Pehle.
Speculation runs high as to how successful the new fall season will be. Despite the uncertainty of new players joining in the fall season, many are optimistic.
"When you start anything, you don't know until you try it … I think it's going to be great for those people that want to play for three-fourths of the year," said Jeremy Batrez, the new general manager at Red's Golden Eagle Grill, who also plays in two league teams throughout the year.
Die-hards like Horning are also excited for the introduction of an even longer playing season.
"The longer they extend the season is always better, people want to play … Winter league has gotten just too cold, the fall league is a perfect addition," Horning said.
According to Pehle, participation in adult league softball has been steadily decreasing at a rate of 10-15 percent annually for the last 15 years. Sparks was able to buck the national trend for nearly a decade, but participation has steadily dropped by about 10 percent for the last five years.
"We were able to fight that drop for 10 years, but it caught up with us when the economy got really bad," Pehle said.
The saving grace for adult softball in the area has been having Golden Eagle Regional Park as a sports complex. With its six softball fields of artificial turf, Golden Eagle is perfect for nearly year round play.
"It's one of the nicest complexes in the entire country, if not the entire world…and our locals get to play on it on a daily basis, in their own backyard," Pehle said.
Beyond having a state-of-the-art sports complex in Golden Eagle, what really keeps adult softball alive in the area is the sport's ability to bring people together.
"We've just had a great tradition … The residents of Sparks enjoy participating in outdoor activities … It's an outlet for friends, family, and coworkers to blow off some steam, have a little fun, be athletic, and stay active. (It's) the camaraderie, to hang out with your buddies, play the game, and have a beer afterwards," Pehle said.

Interesting Facts about Lonnie Henderson
Meaning of Last Name
Meaning: "Son of Henry"
Origins: Scotland
Henderson is a common surname of Scottish origin and means "son of Henry". The name is derived from the Scots Gaelic clan MacEanruig of Glencoe which was later anglified to Henderson and McKendrick. Other areas of Scotland where the name made an early appearance were Caithness in the far north of Scotland in the 15th century, where Henry Gunn fell out with other members of the clan Gunn and adopted the name Henderson. Towards the end of the 16th century the name appears around Dumfries in the Scottish borders when the family are accused of being Border Reivers. The name was unknown in England prior to the 17th century and is first mentioned in a marriage document between one of the Borders Hendersons and the daughter of a Carlisle merchant at Hexham.

By Jesse Hollington
Social Media & Software Editor, iLoungeGoogle+
Published: Monday, August 19, 2013
News Categories: iPod Accessories, iPad Accessories, iPhone Accessories
Incipio Technologies today announced the acquisition of Braven, a Utah-based company responsible for a collection of solidly-built wireless Bluetooth speakers. While Incipio previously focused mostly on protective accessories, it has been angling to get into the speaker business for some time, and expects the acquisition of Braven to "create a more diverse product offering." Braven will remain based in Provo, Utah and the Braven brand will be maintained as a separate product line as part of the Incipio family.

Minnie Pearl
Image courtesy of Michael Ochs Archives
"How-w-w-DEE-E-E! I'm jes' so proud to be here!" rang out many times on the historic stage of the Grand Ole Opry and audience members simply needed just that phrase to know that Minnie Pearl had arrived. Minnie was beloved by country artists and fans alike and was always decked out in her iconic straw hat with the price tag still attached. Minnie hailed from Grinder's Switch and often shared tales from the town and her woes of looking for the right man. Minnie was portrayed by Sarah Colley Cannon who passed away in 1996 at the age of 83.

The Board of Supervisors on Tuesday involved itself with the redesign of Los Angeles International Airport, with one supervisor wondering if the plan to relocate a runway complies with a 2006 legal settlement.
The settlement agreement -- between the county, several municipalities and Los Angeles World Airports, the city agency that operates LAX -- sets limits on growth at the airport. Intended to control traffic and noise in adjacent communities, the agreement also mandates the expansion of other area airports to meet regional demand for air travel.
LAWA, a department of the city of Los Angeles, also owns and operates Ontario International and Van Nuys airports.
On Feb. 5, LAWA's Airport Commission approved a plan that would push the northern-most runway 260 feet north to widen a taxiway.
Airport officials said reconfiguring runways on the north airfield would more safely accommodate large aircraft like 747s and Airbus 380s, now typically restricted to southern runways.
Many Westchester and Playa del Rey residents oppose the move, saying it would increase noise and pollution while doing little to improve safety.
"I want to see LAX modernized and turned into an airport that travelers will ... use rather than one to avoid," Playa del Rey resident James Ouellet told the board on Tuesday.
Ouellet called safety improvements under the plan to move the runway "so miniscule as to be laughable" and urged airport officials to consider other fixes, such as adding more runway lighting and increasing the number of air traffic controllers in the tower, which he said was 25 percent below full staffing.
When voting for the plan last week, Airport Commission President Michael Lawson called it a "reasonable and fair compromise," saying it would not displace any residents or businesses and would create less pollution and noise than current conditions.
"It will not be a monumental impact on surrounding neighbors, but it will be a very significant and substantial increase in safety for this airport," Lawson said.
Knabe said studies of the plan aren't sufficient to confirm that it complies with the settlement agreement. He wants county attorneys to review the agreement. He also wants county staffers to let city and LAWA officials know that the county "in no uncertain terms, intends to enforce compliance with the settlement agreement."
The proposal is still pending approval by the Los Angeles Planning Commission and City Council and will also need to be reviewed by the Federal Aviation Administration.
The board moved into closed session -- citing litigation -- to discuss the matter further before taking any vote on Knabe's recommendations.

Keeping Cool
Cooling system recommendations simplified.
Running the perfect mixture through your cooling system is one way to help guarantee top performance from your vehicles.
Cook says to find the specifications, look to the owner's manual of each vehicle.
"Most manuals recommend that you keep your coolant at a 50/50 level and that you change it out over a certain amount of time."
According to International Lubricants, Inc. ( ILI), manufacturer of Kool-It® and LUBEGARD automotive products, studies show that most cars on the road have cooling systems that do not contain 50/50 water/antifreeze ratio due to lack of maintenance. ILI suggests that different additives can benefit cooling systems that don't maintain the proper ratio.
"The additives help minimize potential corrosion by maintaining adequate pH levels. Even if the antifreeze already contains surfactant additives, the use of these additional additives is usually beneficial because most cars are shortchanged on the 50/50 water/coolant mix," says Kristen Clark, marketing manager for ILI.
Water quality is an issue manufacturers deal with regularly. Most OEMs recommend distilled water.
"All of the OEMs have water quality requirements relating to hardness of the water, the calcium, magnesium, sulfate and chloride levels. Distilled water is a good choice because it doesn't have any of those things. Also, good tap water could be a sufficient choice--it's things like well water and ditch water that won't meet the spec's," Roberts says.
Water is important because it can affect the pH levels, cause scale, deposits, or even add corrosive elements to the coolant
According to Shell's Roberts, when scale and deposits are formed, you reduce heat transfer, which will lead to overheating.
ILI says the debate has raged for years within the industry as to whether distilled water is best to use in a cooling system. Although plenty of OEMs actually require the use of distilled water in their vehicles' cooling systems under the threat of a possible warranty violation, ILI said that the insistence upon the use of distilled water is wrong.
"Their argument is that while it is true that distilled water's purity prevents electrolysis and scale/deposit formation, it unfortunately comes with a potentially damaging side effect," Pat Burrow, technical product manager from ILI says.
Burrows explains that during the distillation process, water is vaporized so all its impurities are left behind. These impurities include a number of minerals including calcium and magnesium, the two components that make water hard. The water is then condensed back into its liquid phase, so the result is pure water. The problem is that when water is distilled, the resulting solution is composed of chemically imbalanced ions.
"This leaves distilled water 'electrochemically hungry' so it will actually strip electrons from the metals in a cooling system as it attempts to chemically re-balance itself," he says.
"The negative effects of tap water can be greatly reduced by using an additive which contains a polymer dispersant. ILI's Kool-It® Supreme Coolant Treatment contains polymer dispersants which encases & floats calcium, etc., keeping these particles in the system, liquid," says Burrows.
The solution?
"Many experts we've spoken to insist that the use of purified water is indeed preferred to prevent the possibility of other forms of contamination," says Burrows.
"Engine coolant is very vital to maintain temperature levels for these high tech engines to get the most performance out of the vehicle," says Bob Young, project manager for Dunn and Bybee Tool Company, Inc. "When the coolant levels aren't maintained, it is important to remember the effect it can have on other components."
"You can't reverse the damage--all you can do is get it clean, patch it up and start brushing. If there are particles floating around, about all you can do is a flush and fill and put in new, good coolant," says Cook.
"Anything bad in the system will only make it worse. Corrosion metals can catalyze the oxidation of the coolant even faster, but the point is, you shouldn't have all of these things that tend to catalyze and further degrade the coolant in the first place," warns Roberts.

If Caleb would actually set his pitching staff this would be Ricky's first loss.
Your team was struggling this week Ricky, what's the deal? Are we going to get a 200 point day today to balance it out?
This silence is deafening.
I know, right? Don't worry. I'm officially involved now, and the PatandRons have repaired their broken roster. Too bad it wasn't a week earlier- a few minor changes (not from the bench, mind you) could have created a huge upset.

Weekly News | Events
Q: What zoo displayed humans as a part of its exhibits?
A: Some time ago this is exactly what happened in a zoo in Denmark. Imagine walking up to an exhibit in the apes and monkeys section, and in between the lemurs and baboons, you read a sign labeled Homo sapiens. The information on the sign gives details of our diet, habitat and other information.
Evolutionist Quote of the Week
"We no longer feel ourselves to be guests in someone else's home and therefore obliged to make our behavior conform with a set of pre-existing cosmic rules. It is our creation now. We make the rules. We establish the parameters of reality. We create the world, and because we do, we no longer feel beholden to outside forces. We no longer have to justify our behavior, for we are now the architects of the universe. We are responsible to nothing outside ourselves, for we are the kingdom, the power, and the glory for ever and ever."
– Jeremy Rifkin, Algeny, Viking Press, New York, p. 244, 1983.
And then, as you peer into the exhibit—you see two live human beings!
Why did they do this? A zoo official said that he hoped the exhibit would encourage people to face up to their origins. He stated, "We're all primates. Lehmann and Botoft (the two people on exhibit) are monkeys in a way, but some people find it hard to accept. This is a way to maybe help people realize that."
While children crowded around the display, many adults apparently seemed somewhat uncomfortable by the sight. We wonder why?
We think it's because man is made in the image of God, and in his heart he really knows that Genesis is true and he is not some rearranged ape or something like that. Sadly, human beings often accept evolution, even though something inside them tells them it's a lie!

When it was announced that she was changing her official title within the company, there were some speculations that Stephanie McMahon was still going to be heavily involved in the creative department in WWE, but it now appears that she truly has embraced her new role and is rarely involved with the writing for Monday Night Raw and Smackdown.
A part of a working relationship with WWE, KaBOOM! is building some playgrounds in New Orleans, the site of Wrestlemania 30. To assists in the project, Stephanie McMahon, who is spearheading things for her company, sent Kofi Kingston to help with design.
Rumors are running rampant that Stacy Keibler is returning to WWE. She recently met with Stephanie McMahon at a VH1 event in New York City. A lucrative offer was reportedly made to the former diva, and there's a good chance that she accepts the deal before Wrestlemania 30.
Stephanie McMahon revealed on Twitter that she has a new jet plane. The belief is that WWE purchased the new vehicle for her because she will be attending events more frequently in the role of brand ambassador. Triple H and Vince McMahon will more than likely travel together to Monday Night Raw and Smackdown each week.
Triple H, Stephanie McMahon and two of their children attended an MMA class taught by former WWE diva Eve Torres and her husband. Some pictures were posted on Instagram and Twitter, where the girls took a subtle jab at Matt Hardy while showcasing a choke hold.
It has now been confirmed that Mae Young has passed away, as Stephanie McMahon herself has posted a message on Twitter to inform everyone. There had been quite a bit of confusion all week long, as fans were quick to make assumptions about her death.
A couple of members of the New England Patriots, who are scheduled for the AFC Championship game against the Denver Broncos next weekend, stopped by Monday Night Raw and visited backstage with Triple H and Stephanie before the show.
While the belief was that he would reduce his workload, Vince McMahon is actually picking up more responsibilities with the creative department now that Stephanie McMahon is moving on to become the brand manager for WWE.
John Cena, Alberto Del Rio, Sheamus, Mark Henry, Big Show, Fandango, Great Khali, R Truth, Bella Twins, Summer Rae, Vince McMahon, Stephanie McMahon and Triple H were all in attendance at the Wrestlemania 31 press conference in Santa Clara.
While rumors are starting to swirl as to why Stephanie McMahon is selling a large portion of her shares in WWE, it is simply a matter of her wanting to build a permanent home for her kids to grow up in.
One of the reasons why Stephanie McMahon is stepping away from the creative department a bit is because she is burnt out, having held the position for several years with WWE now. She will still throw out ideas to Triple H, however.
Earlier this week, Stephanie McMahon has sold another $1.4 million dollars worth of WWE stock. The vice president has been consistently getting rid of her ownership shares and turning it into cash.
With Stephanie McMahon slowly branching out into other areas of WWE, Triple H is now in charge of the creative department, where the writers and executives are now reporting directly to him.
Stephanie McMahon has been promoted by WWE, where she will go from being an executive vice president to being the Chief Brand Officer, which basically makes her more of a spokesperson for the company.
Randy Orton predictably defeated the Big Show to retain the WWE Heavyweight Championship at the Survivor Series. He was able to hit the RKO after Triple H, Stephanie McMahon and Kane provided the distraction by coming out to the ramp.
Stephanie McMahon was honored by CableFax again this week. She attended the breakfast event with her mother, Linda McMahon, and also gave a speech to accept her award.
There are talks within WWE of giving away Wrestlemania 30 for free to people who sign up for the new WWE Network and pay the monthly subscriber fee.
With WWE wanting to sign a lucrative television deal when the current one expires, the company is focused on improving Monday Night Raw and Smackdown, in order to gain leverage in negotiations.
A lot of WWE fans tuned away during the segment involving Triple H, Big Show and Stephanie McMahon on Monday Night Raw this week.
Stephanie McMahon has sold more WWE stock this week and has cashed in on approximate one million dolllars.

ONTONAGON - Gary J. Polakowski, Sr., husband of Karen; father of Gary Jr. (Kim), Stephen (Nicole), Edward III (Patty) and Andrea (Benner); grandfather of Meagan, Mitchell, Zachary, Reagan, Mason, Isabella, Lila, Darby, Corrine, Caitlin, Noelle, Karmyn, Sydney, Daniel, Abby, Eddie IV, Olivia, Helen and RoseMarie; and great-grandfather to Callie, Nikki and Mikah, passed away peacefully on Oct. 31, 2012, with his wife and children holding and rubbing him tightly.
Waiting for him in Heaven were his father, Edward; mother, Helen; brother Ron and sister-in-law, Eddie. We imagine a game of cards is under way. Ron and he are planning their first round of golf. He's also putting his "ear to the ground" with his father-in-law Stephen; mother-in-law, Dorothy; sister-in-law, Dorothy and brother-in-law, Fran.
Gary was born in Milwaukee on Nov. 29, 1940. Upon finishing his college education, he served our country in the Army.
Gary married Karen (Kakuk) on March 27, 1965. In 1977, they decided the best place to raise their children was in Ontonagon. Gary loved Ontonagon so much that he decided to hang up his career in court reporting early and enjoy his retirement and perfect his woodworking skills. His family and friends will miss the annual Christmas gift, but will treasure the thoughtful process of each.
Gary will also be missed by his brothers, Edward, Jr., Ken (Shirley), Gordon and Rick (Susan); the Kakuk family; nieces and nephews; along with the chipmunks that came out every year for their feeding.
Funeral services for Gary will be held Monday, Nov. 5 at 11 a.m. in Holy Family Catholic Church in Ontonagon with Father Michael Jacobus as celebrant.
Visitation will be 10 a.m. until time of the Mass. Burial with Military Honors will follow at the Holy Family Cemetery in Ontonagon.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Ontonagon County Cancer Association, Aspirus Ontonagon Hospital Foundation or to Holy Family Catholic Church.
Friends may view Gary's obituary and leave messages of remembrance at canefuneralhome.com.

The 5 Most Common Phishing Email Subjects - January 14, 2013
Websense has posted some interesting new phishing research a few days ago. They started out: "With cloud infrastructure easily scalable and rented botnets coming on the cheap, the cost of conducting massive phishing campaigns continues to decline for cybercriminals. Even if the return rate is small or the campaign is poorly executed, phishing can result in serious money for criminals. Phishing will never simply go away—meaning ongoing headaches for security professionals."
They listed the top 5 the most dangerous phishing subject lines, based on research conducted Jan-Sept 2013:
1) Invitation to connect on LinkedIn
2) Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender
3) Dear (insert bank name here) Customer
4) Important Communication
5) Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender
These results were confirmed by other research which showed that the LinkedIn invites had the highest scores on simulated phishing attacks. We suggest you do not open emails with these subject lines.

What makes Telluride truly Telluride are the absolutely unique institutions and artifacts that have sprouted here over the years like so many bizarre hallucinogenic mushrooms: things like the Free Box, KOTO, the Town Park Beaver Pond, the Nothing Festival, the Anasazi Blanket, and, of course, the Valley Floor. You won't find anything like them anywhere else on the planet, no matter how hard you look, and without them, Telluride wouldn't really be Telluride, a town so strangely wonderful it's like a work of magical realism made flesh, a freeze-dried sanctified One Hundred Years of Solitude, or Tolkien's Shire, the bucolic turf of the Hobbits.
The Mountaineer has always been much more than just a store, just as Terry Hersher, its genius locus, tutelary deity and resident mischief-maker and scourge of the Let's Make Everything Nice and Proper Around Here/I Just Moved To Telluride And Now I Want To Make It Just Like The Dumbass Hell I Moved Here From clique, is much, much more than just a businessman.
I remember when the Mountain Village inaugurated an ill-advised eco-challenge competition, in which egomaniacal "wilderness athletes" stampeded across the wilderness destroying the foliage and along with it the sanctity of solitude and primeval quiet of the Telluride backcountry. At one point in the middle of the race a bunch of the "eco-warriors" showed up at the Mountaineer's front door in need of urgent re-supply. I can't remember the circumstances exactly, I think it was raining unexpectedly and the competitors needed waterproof gear or maybe they got caught out after dark without headlamps. Whatever the case, Terry's response was classic. He had never liked the idea of the event, and had been loud in his opposition to it, so when he looked out and saw the eco-jocks ululating for assistance, he locked the door and told them to beat it.
Welcome to Telluride, you bums, and don't come back. Classic Terry.
Another time, Terry, who is a fanatical buyer, seller and trader, bought a piece of archery equipment over ebay from a seller in Texas, and found it less than satisfactory. When he asked the seller for a refund, the guy smirked that he already had Terry's payment and was going to keep it, and Terry could basically go to hell. Very, very bad idea; you mess with The Hershman at your peril. Terry went to a local Telluride cop and got a warrant put out on the sleaze ball. If the man was ever pulled over anywhere in the country for speeding, or had a parking cop check his license, any kind of minute offense, the warrant would show up on the computer and Mr. Smartass Texan would be extradited to San Miguel County to stand trial for defrauding Terry.
When Terry called the Texan and informed him of the warrant, the man was horrified. He begged Terry to reconsider, promising that he would refund the money immediately, apologize, anything to escape the Damoclean sword hanging over his head. Terry refused to relent; the culprit continued to plead, but Terry was as stern and uncompromising as an Old Testament king: "Yea verily, thou shalt not mess with The Hershmensch, for his wrath is great and terrible."
Even setting aside Terry's constantly entertaining mischief-making, the store itself was always fascinating. You never knew what arcane product was going to show up there, from the mini-stove system that boils water in record time (I have one), to backpack-able coffee makers to yoga pants to the latest technological advance in mountaineering skis, weather-predicting watches and pocket knives to Gorilla Snot and orienteering compasses.
But all this is soon going to be "was"; Terry is moving on, and the main street Mecca for Mountain People will become another real estate office, or maybe an "art" gallery. Whatever it becomes, it won't have the delight-making eccentricity and personality of the old Mountaineer.
Sad, indeed. A triumph for those misguided souls who want Telluride to be just like everywhere else or more so, but a big bummer for those of us who love the place for its idiosyncratic wackiness.
