Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Cut the lamb into 4cm chunks, then spread over the base of a large, wide casserole dish. Add the onions, oregano, cinnamon sticks, ground cinnamon and olive oil, then stir well. Bake, uncovered, for 45 mins, stirring halfway.

Fancy a side dish?
Olive, caper & feta salad: Tear 1 romaine lettuce into a large bowl. Scatter over 1 thinly sliced small red onion, ½ cucumber, peeled and cut into chunks, a good handful of kalamata olives and 2 tbsp capers. Whisk together 1 tbsp red wine vinegar with 3 tbsp olive oil, drizzle over, then top with 100g crumbled feta.
Know-how: Orzo
The Italian word orzo means barley. When cooked, it has a texture similar to risotto rice. Look for it in the specialist sections of supermarkets, or in Greek, Italian and Middle Eastern delis. It can go by a variety of other names including puntaletti and romarino. If you can't find it, use another small pasta, like trofie.
Mary says...
Relaxed, easy entertaining is always top of my list. Simply put the dish in the centre of the table for everyone to help themselves. Add some good crusty bread and side salad, and you have a real feast
To freeze
Freeze at the end of step 2. Defrost in the fridge overnight, then return to the casserole and bring slowly to the boil. Add a little water if it looks dry. Stir in the orzo, cover and bake for 20 mins.

Comments (209)
I love this recipe. I've made this dish several times but today I used paella rice as I didn't realise I didn't have any orzo. I always add some ginger and garlic to the mix, some corriander and cumin powder and Definately some red chilli powder. It's a must when I make this dish and its always delicious. But tasted yum with paella rice today. I always use lamb shoulder with bones & it never goes to waste. My 2yr loves eating the lamb. Great recipe but love adding my own touch.
I have cooked this dish twice. 1st time I found it a bit dry & the 2nd time I tweaked the recipe & it was delicious.
I only used a 1LB of Lamb as I cook for the 2 of us.
I mixed the lamb with a couple of teaspoons of Mrs. Balls Original South African Chutney then left it for a couple of hours before proceeding with the recipe.
At stage 2 of the recipe I added a jar of Al'fez Apricot and Coriander Authentic Moroccan Tagine Sauce & I only used 1 pint of Bouillon Vegetable stock.
For us this dish turned out to be delicious the 2nd time around & I will be cooking this dish again.
Best dish in the world!!! Easiest and tastiest meal ever how i love greek yvetsi! i couldnt find my greek recipe so tried this but put some red wine in and a little water in with the lamb and onions etc when cooking it for the suggested time of 45 mins as this is what i do with all my meat and it didnt disappoint the meat was sooo tender...def make this meal and save loads for the next day it tastes even better
Made this with leftover barbequed lamb (still pink inside), and cooked the dish on the hob. Cooked the onions etc first, added the lamb with the tomatoes and stock and reduced the cooking time. Loved how the orzo turned a liquid sauce into something substantial, and it tasted fine, but neither husband or I would hurry to have this again. Judging from other reviews we're in a minority - perhaps the longer cooking time and raw lamb are the way forward for this dish. It does work with cooked lamb, but definitely not a 5 star dish.

In this collection of inspirational essays, internationally known author Dr. Elisabeth K?C?bler-Ross draws on her in-depth research of more than 20,000 people who had near-death experiences, revealing the afterlife as a return to wholeness of spirit. With frank and compassionate advice for those dealing with terminal illness or the death of a loved one, ON LIFE AFTER DEATH offers a compelling message of hope to the living, so that they may grow stronger from tragedy and live life to the fullest. The classic collection of essays on death, dying, and the afterlife, by Dr. Elisabeth K?C?bler-Ross. Features a new foreword by Caroline Myss. Previous edition sold more than 200,000 copies. Reviews "I am so grateful that I was given the opportunity to review such ground-breaking material on death and dying. This 85 page gem has made a huge difference in my life. This world renowned author will always be remembered for her clear and accurate account of the 5 stage dying process, and the impact her work has had will echo through the corridors of time. There are many excellent books out on the subject of near death experiences, and life after death experiences, but I had always been curious as I got older what the process of shedding my body suit was all about. Just about the time I thought I would even start looking for a book on the topic I would get a funny feeling in the pit of my stomach and decide maybe it wasn't a good idea after all. I would recommend this gentle honest helper to anyone who has a true desire to learn the many facet of such a natural part of life."-Riki Frahmann www.mysticlivingtoday.com

Many VLSI architectures for computing the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) were presented, but the parallel input data sequence and the programmability of the 2-D DWT were rarely mentioned. In this paper, we present a parallel-processing VLSI architecture to compute the programmable 2-D DWT, including various wavelet filter lengths and various wavelet transform levels. The proposed architecture is very regular and easy to extend. To eliminate high frequency components, the pixel values outside the boundary of the image are mirror-extended as the symmetric wavelet transform and the mirror-extension is realized via the routing network. This design has been implemented and fabricated in a 0.35 μm 1P4M CMOS technology and the working frequency is 50 MHz. The chip size is about 5200 μm×2500 μm. For a 256×256 image, the chip can perform 30 frames per second with the filter length varying from 2 to 20 and with various levels. Hence the proposed architecture is suitable for real-time applications such as JPEG 2000

Reviews for International Wolf Center
This is one of the best non-profits. Their mission is education. They teach science and let people form their own opinions based on facts. They are not political.
I've visited this center back in March and have planned another trip next month and I live in South Carolina. It is amazing to see these gorgeous wolves up close. The staff is very knowledgeable and the facility is beautiful. Must see.
1 person found this review helpful
I have been enthralled with wolves since 1993, and when my family took me to the International Wolf Center in 1998, I knew that this passion was more than just a small fancy. As I have grown, I have also watched the Center grow: enriching the exhibit enclosure with a pond, more rocks and trees; creating retirement enclosures and a pack holding area; the expansion of the wolf lab for the care of wolf pups; new technology being added into daily programs to aid in the dissemination of information to the public. Through the murky waters of economics, ecology, politics, and preservation, the IWC has sought only to educate the world about wolves, because an individual will not fear what they do not understand (and the wolf has endured through decades of misunderstanding). I had the honor this year to participate in the Wolf Pup Care program, which made a childhood dream of mine come true. All of my experiences with the wolves and staff of the IWC over the decades of my life have been formative, and I cannot imagine the Northwoods of Minnesota without the presence of this humble facility. Their work with leading experts in the field of conservation and biology have uncovered more about the secret lives of this animal in the last 20 years than we previously knew, which enables the public to be on the leading edge of information. I would be pleased to see the IWC receive funds through this campaign so that my children and grandchildren may also have the opportunities to see such majestic creatures exhibit their natural behaviors so we can do right by their wild brothers and sisters.
I visited the International Wolf Center for the first time on a Girl Scout trip when I was 10 years old - and I was immediately hooked. I fell in love with wolves at a very young age, but the chance to get so close to them turned it into an addiction. Since then I have visited many times over the years, and I recently became a member as well. The IWC does an amazing job educating without prejudice - they give you the information from both sides of any topic, and let you make your own judgment.

The Best Wolf Learning Center in the world. The Ambassador Wolves, Staff and the Center itself with the Store, many Programs, Wolf viewing area and social media including Webinars make this a must see destination!
I have loved wolves ever since I was a kid. I read every book about wolves in our local library in Philadelphia. Wolves are terribly misunderstood, and I really dislike how they continue to be viewed as something to fear. More people should live like wolves do. My trip to the International Wolf Center in Ely was a great experience. The people there are very knowledgeable, and eager to answer questions. The big viewing window looking out on the wolf yard is fascinating. Some of the wolves walk up to the window and look you right in the eye as though you are the one on display, not them. The people at IWC have a great Facebook content, and keep wolf lovers up to date with the new pups, the pack, and the retirees. Their page is constantly teaching "wolf".
I have loved the International Wolf Center in Ely, MN since the first time I visited in 2010. I have always been in awe of wolves. I am a proud member of the IWC and drive up there every year and sometimes twice a year. Since visiting there I have learned so much about wolves that it has only intensified my feelings of awe. I have adopted two different wolves, and I always look forward to what I can learn the next time I visit. I have the utmost respect for the way the curator Lori and her staff protect both visitors and the wolves. The center offers wonderful programs and the staff is always willing to respond to questions.

I've been a member of the International Wolf Center since 1999 when I first learned of the wonderful educational programs that they offered. I participated in several of these adventure programs and in the process learned much about wolf ecology and behavior plus met many people during these programs that shared the same passion for the wolf as I do. About 10 years ago, I decided to move near the center and became a volunteer. I'm now a part of the wolf care staff and helping out with various educational programs that they still offer to carry out their mission to "teach the world about wolves".
As a naturalist, I have lead many bus tours to Ely, MN to visit the Wolf Center. We have always had wonderful educators from the Center provide interesting and thought provoking programs with a non-biased approach. The information is up-to-date concerning wolf research and wolf politics. Our tour participants learn so much and with the experience of viewing the wolf ambassadors, they take away first-hand knowledge of wolf behavior. I have used the wolf cams during many of my own programs on wolves and the participants are always engaged and curious.
I loved volunteering so much fun and the staff was always friendly and willing to answer questions can't wait to go back someday soon

Richard Cytowic
|Richard E. Cytowic
December 16, 1952
Trenton, New Jersey, U.S.
|Washington, D.C.
|George Washington University Medical Center
|Alma mater
|Duke University, Wake Forest
|Known for
|Synesthesia, Neuropsychology
|Paul D. MacLean, Norman Geschwind
Richard E. Cytowic is an American neurologist and author [1] who rekindled interest in studying synesthesia [2][3][4][5] in the 1980s. He was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize for his New York Times Magazine cover story[6] about James Brady, the Presidential Press Secretary shot in the brain during the assassination attempt on President Reagan. Cytowic's writing ranges from textbooks[7] and music reviews, to his Metro Weekly "Love Doctor" essays[8] and brief medical biographies of Anton Chekhov[9] and Maurice Ravel.[10] His work is the subject of several documentaries.[11]
In Musicophilia, Oliver Sacks writes:
In the 1980, Richard Cytowic made the first neurophysiological studies of synesthetic subjects... In 1989, he published a pioneering text, Synesthesia: A Union of the Senses, and this was followed by a popular exploration of the subject in 1993, The Man Who Tasted Shapes. Current techniques of functional brain imaging now give unequivocal evidence for the simultaneous activation or coactivation of two or more sensory areas of the cerebral cortex in synesthetes, just as Cytowic's work predicted.[12]
Cytowic is a Clinical Associate Professor of Neurology at George Washington University Medical Center, a Mentor at the Point Foundation, and a member of the Advisory Board for Williams Institute at the UCLA School of Law.
Cytowic was born on December 16, 1952 in Trenton, New Jersey to a physician father and artist mother, and grew up with an extended family of scientists and artists. His mother is ESPN's "Super Nana Marge", Tim Tebow's No. 1 fan.[13] As a child, Cytowic liked taking things apart and putting them back together to figure out how they worked.
He attended Hun School of Princeton (class of 1970),[14] graduated cum laude from Duke University, and received his M.D. from Wake Forest's Bowman Gray School of Medicine. He studied further at London's Queen Square (Institute of Neurology), and George Washington University Medical Center before founding a private clinic, Capitol Neurology.
Retired from clinical practice, Cytowic now mentors medical students at George Washington, writes and lectures. While in North Carolina, he served as music critic for the Winston-Salem Journal. He is enrolled in the Masters of Fine Arts Program in Creative Writing in the College of Arts and Sciences at American University.[15]

I am working with Python Django in Windows Vista Powershell. After I run
python manage.py runserver ,
it asks me to
CTRL-BREAK to stop the process. But after I typed that, Powershell stops the process and
closes. Is there a way to stop the process and keep the Powershell open?
I am working with Python Django in Windows Vista Powershell. After I run
Unfortunately the PowerShell console host uses
I find the easiest thing to do when I run into situations like this is from the PowerShell session simply execute
The other thing you should probably consider is using cmd.exe rather than PowerShell unless there is some feature of PowerShell you're trying to leverage.
You may try it in this way:
Then, you can keep your powershell script continuing
Then run an UI loop for checking keys input:
However, life will not be easy if you need to interact with your python server, which is running at the background. And you would probably like to display your server's output constantly.

ASUS isn't afraid to show off its size
Subject: Mobile | May 20, 2009 - 01:26 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
In a world of mobile tech that is trending towards lighter and lighter devices, the ASUS W90 18.4" Notebook
almost seems to not fit in. There is a subset of mobile users who are quite willing to tote around 12lbs or more of laptop if it is powerful enough. The W90 certainly has that power, an HD4870 X2 powers the graphics and a C2Q 9000 along with 6GB of DDR2-667 power the rest of the notebook. Techgage took it gaming, and it had no problems with current generation

iUnika, a very green laptop maker in Spain has been showing off some interesting little netbooks. Made with a starch and cellulose casing, the casing is biodegradable, but one might rightly assume that the CPU, motherboards and other components are not. Some models sport a solar panel, allowing the laptop to recharge while shut down, a feat made possible by the fact that these netbooks will be in the 3W to 4W power range. Check them out at The Inquirer.

When you look at an ION platform from nVIDIA, you might mistake it for a router or maybe an external HDD cage, but hidden in that box is a full PC. The GeForce 9400 and Intel Atom beat the pants off of the Intel 945GC, but unless you want to replay Quake 4 at 800x600 with an average frame rate hovering around 20fps you may not want to use it at a LAN party. On the flip side, with HD content in H.264, VC-1 or MPEG-2, you can expect great performance, no dropped frames and a CPU utilization that stays well under 50%. If you do try some other formats, you might run into s

If you just picked up the Kindle 2, you are probably not a very happy person. Amazon just released the Kindle DX, roughly 2.5 times the size and only $130 more. It has a 9.7" 1200x824 screen @ 150 dpi, and 16 levels of grey, and 3.3GB of storage, all adding up to a much bigger device than it's little brother. You will need to wait until the summer to get your hands on it, but unless the tiny size of the Kindle 2 is a good thing for you, you are best off waiting for the DX.
Alienware gets hot n' heavy
Subject: Mobile | May 4, 2009 - 02:45 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
BCC Hardware recently picked up a $2534CDN Alienware M17 CrossfireX gaming laptop, and almost injured themselves as it weighs the better part of 15lbs. As the weight implies, this laptop is not intended to be carted around everywhere and the components guarantee you will want to be near a power outlet when you fire up this beast. Their particular configuration has C2D P8400 @ 2.26GHz, 3GB of DDR3-1066 memory and a pair of mobility Radeon HD 3870 cards, they
Tiny notebook or high end netbook?
Subject: Mobile | April 29, 2009 - 03:06 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
HP's new Pavilion dv2 straddles the line between netbook and notebook. It's keyboard is 93% of the normal size, it weighs just under 4lbs and it's measurements never break the foot mark at 11.5" x 9.45" x 0.93-1.29. It's size makes you think netbook, but it's internals are a little different than your normal Atom powered netbook.
What to get your little bundle of joy
Subject: Mobile | April 24, 2009 - 12:01 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
If you pick up an Alienware Area-51 m17x, the chances are you will pick up a hard case made of DU, a killer gaming mouse, LED lights and random USB gadgets and generally just pimp the smeg out of it.
A netbook on the other hand is lucky if it is not just tossed into a gym bag, with no protection and no funky accessories at all. Why not change that by taking a look at this kit from Targus that Futurelooks just reviewed. Doesn't your netbook deserve a little bling?
DIY on a smaller scale

OCZ has been selling DIY laptops for a while now, you buy a shell lacking a processor, hard drive, memory, or an operating system. You then get to pick which components you put into the machine, ending up with a laptop built to your specs and for less than buying it full assembled from a retailer. They've now moved onto netbooks, offering up a little kit about twice the size of a game case, with a 10" screen and an Atom N270 1.60GHz, the HDD and DDR2 choices are left to you.

I4U decided that an aging Thinkpad X40 could use an upgrade to an SSD for both the performance enhancements and the noise reduction it would bring. Specifically, they picked a KingSpec SSD which will supposedly just drop in and work. It's a 1.8" MLC SSD that claims average access times of
0.2ms, sustained read
of 65MB/S
and write
at 47MB/S. While i4U didn't get around to benchmarking the drive, they did prove just how easy it is to get a lot more from your X40, X41 or X41T.

4kg for a laptop seems heavy to those carting around a netbook, but there are no netbooks with a 18.4" screen that displays at 1900x1080. Powering that display is a GeForce 9600M GT with 1GB of DDR2, the total system memory being 4GB of DDR2 and a 2GHz C2D T6400 runs it all. Scoring 3977 in 3DMark06, it won't be a gaming powerhouse, but it should be able to push most games at it's native resolution without too much tweaking. A preview of this laptop can be found at InsideHW.

Vote for Ron Cohen for Yucca Valley Town Council
by Margo Sturges/Yucca Valley, Ca.- Ron Cohen formally announced his candidacy for Yucca Valley Town Council back in March 2014. Here is an updated post as the November election nears…
Cohen is a familiar face in Yucca Valley as the spokesperson for the Yucca Valley Recall of Councilmen George Huntington and Robert Lombardo. Personally walking and speaking with several hundred residents in their homes during the Recall effort, Cohen has tapped into the heart and soul of the community.
Over one year ago, Cohen lead a group of Concerned Citizens regarding the Yucca Valley budget holding meetings at his residence to analyze each budget item line by line. At one meeting in his living room, Town Staff was present along with two councilmen to discuss the budget spreadsheet and each category of expenses. Cohen has continued to state there is too much fat in the budget and suggested easy ways to reduce expenditures which always fell on deaf ears. Appointed Mayor Abel scoffed at Cohen's suggestion of any committee meetings with staff/council and citizens to go over the budget.
Here is a copy of his recent flyer: Taking Back Yucca Valley
- Develop community focused town not based on one particular group
- Hold periodic town hall meetings to listen to the people
- Establish new programs that invite youth involvement (e.g. nature conservatories, expansion of pool hours, town affiliated youth activities …. work experience credits at high school)
- Re-establish town infrastructure plan that is reasonable and equitable
- Establish people friendly, business wise environment:
- Provide streamlined and uncomplicated methods for new businesses
- Encourage local business involvement BEFORE making changes
- Eliminate all denominational activity within town government
- Vote for M. Ronald (Ron) Cohen for Town Council in 2014

Game 1 of the 2012 NBA playoffs didn't treat Ty Lawson or his Denver Nuggets kindly.
Los Angeles blew out Lawson and Denver 103-88, and the Nuggets' point guard didn't do much to help, going 3-of-11 from the floor for only seven points and two assists.
It was an uncharacteristic performance from one of the NBA's rising point guards, who led the Nuggets in scoring all season, and he's shown signs of why he could be an elite playoff point.

On the same day, news broke of a salmonella outbreak in multiple states involving some seven different strains of the illness, with CDC workers returning to work despite the so-called government shutdown. News also [Read More…]
Plenty of others are discussing the government shutdown in the United States, and so I won't try to cover the whole story. What I consider most noteworthy is just how much it says about our priorities. Not everything that is part of the government's budget is actually shutting down. "Essentials" such as military activities are [Read More…]

"Sharrie's Abu Simbel Sensor" Temple of Abu Simbel by Sharrie
Temple of Abu Simbel Travel Guide: 267 reviews and 921 photos
TEMPLE OF ABU SIMBEL is sensational! It lies about 175 miles from Aswan after the Egyptian government undertook a major reconstruction (in association with UNESCO) in 1968 & moved the two speos of Ramesses II & Nefertari to the current site. The gigantic rock was cut into sections, dismantled & then reconstructed on the summit of the Libyan mountains which overlooks the Nile River.
Now, to get an idea of perspective. The southern speos with a facade of 4 colossal statues of Ramesses II measures 108 ft high & 125 ft wide. The main reason why this has to be moved to higher ground was because of flooding caused by the building of Aswan High Dam. The original site is now submerged.
Another interesting fact that made this move more scientific than it actually is can be found in the "local custom tips" section of this page. Please check it out if you are interested in finding out the answer.

text: Food Stories related to food in Seattle, including Dick Stein and Nancy Leson's weekly commentary Food for Thought. The Recipe Behind The Best Meatballs Dick Stein Has Ever Made By Dick Stein • Feb 25, 2015 Stein Listen Listening... / 3:35 The Andrews Sisters were singing "One Meatball" in my head as I browsed through one of my favorite cooking sites, seriouseats.com. And then my eyes fell upon Daniel Gritzer's eye-opening (and gut-expanding) recipe for Italian-American style meatballs. Coincidence? I think not. After All These Years, Dick Stein Slurps Down His Very First Raw Oyster By Dick Stein • Feb 18, 2015 Justin Steyer / KPLU Listen Listening... / 3:45 The first time I ever did it was right out in public in front of everyone at the Taylor Shellfish Oyster Bar on Queen Anne. My first raw oyster. Nancy Leson's Perfect Valentine's Day: Dinner, Music And Movie By Dick Stein • Feb 11, 2015 Cafe Presse Facebook page Listen Listening... / 3:29 That sneaky Nancy Leson! She tried to get me to name the musician I'd most like to have entertain at a Valentine's dinner for me and DeGroot. Naturally, I refused. If I name someone, then I'm excluding everyone else, I told her. I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings. Nancy, of course, has no such qualm. Recipes: Quinoa Two Ways And Stein's Reverse-Engineered Harbor Lights Cole Slaw Dressing By Dick Stein • Feb 4, 2015 Nancy Leson Listen Listening... / 3:36 Summer is made endurable by anticipation of the winter to come. How I look forward to those long nights and lovely gray, rainy days! And to eating the pot that was already legal in Washington — pot roast, pot pies, pot au feu. But Nancy Leson? In deepest, darkest February, she's thinking salad, and some pretty enticing ones, too. Food For Thought Encore: Top Your Raw Oyster With A Bloody Mary Snow Cone By Dick Stein • Jan 28, 2015 Nancy Leson Listen Listening... / 3:32 It's January, the best time of the year to eat Pacific Northwest oysters. In this encore edition of Food for Thought, Nancy sings an ode to the joys of slurping and answers the question "What goes best with an oyster on the half-shell?" Stein's answer: courage! Nancy Leson Goes To Florida, Sees Wondrous Things At The Caribbean Market By Dick Stein • Jan 21, 2015 Nancy Leson Listen Listening... / 3:36 My phone rang and it was Nancy Leson: "Hey, Stein, I'm sitting in the exit row of an Alaska Airlines flight, on my way to Ft. Lauderdale and Miami," she said. And it wasn't on just any flight. It was the famed "Salmon-30-Salmon", the airliner that looks like a fish. With jet engines. From The Foreman Grill To The Griddler, Nancy Leson And Dick Stein Sing The Griddle Electric By Dick Stein • Jan 14, 2015 AP Photo/Cuisinart Listen Listening... / 3:40 All it took was for friend and colleague Nick Morrison to mention that his wife Ceal had brought home an electric griddle for visions of panini to dance in my head. So while wife DeGroot rolled her eyes, I rushed to the store for my own Cuisinart Griddler. Has The KitchenAid Mixer Lost Its Mojo? By Dick Stein • Jan 7, 2015 Nancy Leson Listen Listening... / 3:38 They've been saying, "They just don't make'em like they used to" since shortly after the first stone ax was updated. But when that old saw is applied to the KitchenAid stand mixer, Nancy Leson says it's true. Dick Stein's Sis Shares Her Cake-spertise And Recipe For Italian Meringue Buttercream By Dick Stein • Dec 31, 2014 Deb Buchanan Listen Listening... / 3:48 Nancy Leson was suffering from cake envy. For husband Mac's birthday, she'd gone to all the trouble of baking a big deal birthday cake for him But at the party, "a cake that came out of a box" stole the glory from her "multi-layered, gorge-a-mondo" job. "Stein, are you much of a cake baker?" she asked me. Not really, but my kid sister Debbie Buchanan used to bake fancy cakes for a living. So we got her on the line from Annapolis to answer Nancy's questions. After All Those Reviews, Nancy Leson Still Loves Restaurants By Dick Stein • Dec 24, 2014 daisy.r / Flickr During the years she was the Seattle Times restaurant critic, Nancy Leson was often told she had the perfect job. Go out to eat every night on the boss's dime — that ain't workin'. But it wasn't all honey for nothin' and tips for free. As Nancy asked me back then: "How'd you like to go back to a restaurant you didn't like? Twice? After all, any restaurant can have a bad night. And that's what you have to do if you're going to give a fair review." How One Seattle Baker Uses Infused 'Yeast Water' To Leaven Bread By Martha Kang • Dec 23, 2014 Courtesy of Rika Manabe When Junko Mine gets ready to bake, she starts with a big glass jar. She fills it with water, then adds something for flavor: maybe a few raspberries, some Douglas fir needles or a whole apple, skin and all. She seals the jar tightly, then waits. For five to seven days. Spicy Gift Ideas For Cooks By Dick Stein • Dec 17, 2014 Workld Spice Merchants Listen Listening... / 3:43 Seems that both Nancy Leson and I are into heavy metal for gift giving this time around. "There's one piece of equipment that I adore, and that's my Lodge 15-inch, pre-seasoned cast iron skillet," Nance says. She loves it because, well, it turns out that size does matter after all. The Secret To Better Homemade Pizza Plus Nancy's Recipe For Buttermilk Rolls, Two Ways By Dick Stein • Dec 10, 2014 Dick Stein Listen Listening... / 3:42 From now on, my my pizza stone is demoted to trivet duty. I've been reading about pizza "steels" for a while now, and last week, in a moment of wild abandon, actually shelled out $42 for a 15"x15"x1/4" plate of carbon steel. Cooking Lessons Make Great Holiday Gifts By Dick Stein • Dec 3, 2014 Listen Listening... / Nancy Leson came home from a week of media blackout, reactivated all her many electronic devices, "and all I hear about is buying stuff!" she wailed. That was my cue to brag of my immunity to all retail blandishments. "But," she replied, "I saw something that was a great idea if you were going to buy somebody something." Stein And Nancy Leson's Takes On The Perfect Leftover-Turkey Sandwich By Dick Stein • Nov 26, 2014 Dick Stein Listen Listening... / As we all know, the real reason for the Thanksgiving Feast is to ready the components of the post-TG turkey sandwich (PTGTS). Like just about everyone, I have strong feelings as to what constitutes its most perfect manifestation. Save Time, Stress And Sanity With Thanksgiving Make-Aheads By Dick Stein • Nov 19, 2014 Nancy Leson Listen Listening... / 3:48 Nancy Leson always hosts huge gatherings for Thanksgiving. How huge? Huge enough to require two birds, each the size of a turkey-shaped dirigible. One way she keeps the cooking-day rush to a minimum is to make what she can in advance, especially her favorite cranberry sauce, which keeps so well she can make it six months ahead of time. I was shocked — simply shocked. "Nancy Leson," I gasped, "I cannot believe that you are talking on an NPR affiliate about a cranberry sauce recipe that is not Susan Stamberg's." Holy Smoke, They're Cookin' With Coke! By Dick Stein • Nov 12, 2014 Nancy Leson Among my favorite cooking sites is Diana Kuan's "Appetite for China." It was there that I discovered that Coca-Cola chicken wings is an actual Chinese dish. Kuan says she's never seen it in an English language Chinese cookbook or menu, but that it does appear from time to time in Chinese cookbooks and TV cooking shows. All Real Cooks Have A Tale Of Kitchen Klutzery, Even The Editor Of Food & Wine By Dick Stein • Nov 5, 2014 alisdair / Flickr The editor of Food & Wine magazine owns up: "I am going to be honest: I am not a great cook." Early in the book "Mastering My Mistakes in the Kitchen," author Dana Cowin acknowledges that she's "messed up literally every type of food." But there's no cooking conundrum that can't be made at least a little more manageable, especially with the help of top chefs such as Mario Batali, Jacques Pepin, Alice Waters and Thomas Keller, who wrote the introduction. Steamers, Keg-Sized And Small, And Other Kitchen Gears We Own But Don't Use By Dick Stein • Oct 29, 2014 Brenda Goldstein I can't even remember exactly where or when I bought the monster steamer pictured above, but it's been at least 30 years. I've given it plenty of use over the decades but it's always been way more steamer than I needed. Finally, after a few not so gentle nudges from DeGroot (she should talk about clutter!), I figured I'd fob it off on Leson in exchange for her more practical-sized utensil. But nooooooo... Oregon Chef Asks: Do You Have The Guts To Celebrate World Tripe Day? By Tom Banse • Oct 24, 2014 Wikimedia An Oregon chef is asking if you have the guts to celebrate World Tripe Day today. What is tripe? It's the lining of the cow's stomach. Matt Bennett, owner of Sybaris Bistro in Albany, Oregon volunteered to promote consumption of beef stomach on behalf of the British-based Tripe Marketing Board. Just Back From Spain, Nancy Leson Offers A Few Pointers On Paella By Dick Stein • Oct 22, 2014 Nancy Leson Both Nance and I have been traveling these past weeks. I traveled across Canada by train, and Nancy went to Spain and France with the KPLU Travel Club. While there, she and her fellow eaters tried their hands at the iconic Valencia dish, paella. Hugs And Kisses For XO Sauce, The Mommy Of All Umami By Dick Stein • Oct 15, 2014 Nancy Leson Editor's Note: This is a rerun of a vintage Food for Thought post. Nancy Leson and I love the XO sauce, the incredibly flavorful Chinese condiment, but we don't love the price. Besides, it's always more fun to make your own. And there's no shortage of recipes. How Many Cookbooks Are Too Many? By Dick Stein • Oct 8, 2014 What say you? In Nancy Leson's case, "1,500 to 2,000" was too many cookbooks — so many that she could hardly get into her office any more. So she called in her good friend Judy Amster, she said, "and we had an intervention." Listen: The Popular Coffee Drink Even Seattle Doesn't Know About By Paula Wissel • Oct 7, 2014 duncan C / Flickr Seattle thinks it knows its coffee. After all, it's the birthplace of Starbucks, and neighborhoods with two or three coffeehouses per block are not uncommon. So you'd think the new director of Seattle Opera, Aidan Lang, would be happy. He's a self-described coffee lover. But Lang says what we're missing is a drink that's taking the world by storm called a "flat white." So we set out to find out what a flat white is, and where we can find it in Seattle. Click play below to hear what we found. In Search Of The Flat White, 'The Best Way To Have Coffee,' In Seattle By Paula Wissel • Oct 7, 2014 Nancy Leson Knows Her Apples, Including The Best Kind To Grow In The Northwest By Dick Stein • Oct 1, 2014 Nancy Leson Listen Listening... / 3:32 All about apples. Nancy Leson now knows more about apples, thanks to her friend Bill Davis, who really knows his apples. Which is way more than I knew, never having bitten into one in my whole life. But even fruitophobic me learned plenty of interesting stuff this week, including the best kind to grow in the Pacific Northwest. 'Tis The Season To Have Fun With Fungus By Dick Stein • Sep 24, 2014 Justin Steyer / KPLU Fall is mushroom madness time, which means the new book "Shroom" by Seattle author, chef and 10-year PCC cooking instructor Becky Selengut couldn't be more timely. Wok This Way — Not Nancy Leson's Way, Says Stein By Dick Stein • Sep 17, 2014 Nancy leson Nancy Leson keeps a lot of stuff on hand to do what she characterizes as stir-frying. These techniques include first searing meat on the grill rather than in the wok. Tut-tut. She also uses "stir-fry" as a noun, as in "my favorite stir-fry." I am left with no choice but to remonstrate. Remembering School Lunches Past, And How To Commit Mrs. Stein's Chicken A La King By Dick Stein • Sep 10, 2014 George Eastman House / Flickr Seems like school and military food have always been fair game for those mystery meat jokes and general put-downs. While I admit that I never got any four-star chow in either environment, what I did get wasn't so bad and sometimes pretty good. Nancy's A Geek For Greek Yogurt By Dick Stein • Sep 3, 2014 Nancy Leson Who but Nancy Leson could go so gaga over yogurt? You, maybe, but not me. A little may do no harm but I'm just not an eat-it-out-of-the-carton kind of guy. Still, when Nancy cajoled me into trying Ellenos Greek Yogurt, it really was the best I'd ever tasted. The Big Balk came when she attempted to get fruit-o-phobic me to try the passionfruit variety. "I would not get out of an electric chair to eat that," I told her. And I didn't.

Mayor Debe Hollingsworth hasn't given up hope of obtaining City Council approval for renovations at Pine Bluff's Townsend Park and Merrill Community Center, she told the city's Parks and Recreation Commission on Tuesday.
In a special meeting of the Pine Bluff City Council on Friday, aldermen rejected Hollingsworth's request to appropriate $650,000 to fund the renovations, which the mayor says are required under the terms of a sales-tax increase approved by voters in 2011.
Hollingsworth told parks commissioners Tuesday that she will try to provide the aldermen with more specific information about details of the proposed renovations.
"Rather than a lump sum, we'll divide out the projects so that the aldermen will have a clearer scope," she said.
Hollingsworth said Pine Bluff architect Fred Reed will be conducting an architectural assessment of the Merrill Center and that information will be distributed to aldermen as well.
"Hopefully, they'll have some more clarity to it," she said.
At Friday's meeting, the city council voted 5-2 to reject Hollingsworth's funding request. A key point of contention was what impact the appropriation might have on a multipurpose center that was approved as one of the projects to be funded by the sales-tax increase.
Hollingsworth said Tuesday that there is no possibility that the multipurpose center will be scrapped.
"The multipurpose center will be built, period," she said. "We have to do that. There's been some talk that it will not happen. It will happen."
Parks Commissioner Abel White questioned the wisdom of spending more money on the Merrill Center.
"The Merrill Center has always been a problem, because we keep patching the repairs," White said. "I think we're wasting good money after bad money. … It ought to be trashed, just wrecked down and start over."
Hollingsworth replied that a study has revealed the Merrill Center to be structurally sound.
"That's one of the things we talked about," she said. "Is the structure sound enough to do these repairs? Yes, it is."
Hollingsworth also said that the work she envisions for the center will not be "patching." She pointed to three recently renovated fire stations as examples.
"Being good stewards of this money, we are going to do it right," she said.
"When you start fixing on something that's been fixed before, that's a patch," White said.
Parks and Recreation Department Director Angela Parker told the commission that the Merrill Center had sustained some damage from high winds over the weekend.
In other business, the commission discussed developing a list of policies and procedures for procuring bids, as well as the policy for paying department employees to clean up after rentals of parks facilities.
Parker told the commission that she would like to consider hiring professional help to ensure that the cleanup is done properly.
The commission also discussed possible changes to the standard rental contract for the city's softball fields, but took no action.

The death toll from a coal mine explosion in central China's Henan Province has risen to 26 as five more bodies were found, according to state media on Monday, October 18.
Rescuers were battling to reach the 11 miners still trapped underground, but their chances of survival was very slim, official Xinhua news agency quoted a local official as saying.
More than 2,500 tons of coal dust smothered the pit after the blast, which hampered the rescue, said the report.
The accident, which occurred at 6 a.m. (2200 GMT) (6P-ET) on Friday, October 15 in a pit owned by Pingyu Coal & Electric Co Ltd based in Yuzhou city, comes in the wake of Chile's dramatic rescue of 33 miners trapped for more than two months underground.
China's mines are the deadliest in the world, due to lax safety standards and a rush to feed demand from a robust economy.
More than 2,600 people died in coal mine accidents in 2009 alone.

I have the following command:
ssh $USER@$HOST "ls /ops/pkg/ec/`grep "PKRTS" /ops/pkg/ec | awk '{print $1}'`* > /tmp/tmp_file"
What the above SHOULD do..is, ssh to the host then execute the command. The command should first execute the grep and awk between the back ticks, and generate a file name, then ls using that filename* and write that data to a temp file.
However, it executes the grep and awk before even SSH'ing and the command that goes to the server is simply an
"ls /ops/pkg/ec/* > /tmp/tmp_file" since the grep and awk return nothing on the local machine.
Any ideas how to get around this?

this was so adorable and amazing, i loved it!
| Soul Raider 116 chapter 7 . 9/26/2014
I am well aware that this story is long since completed. I feel compelled to share my reaction to this chapter though...
Jin, as caring as he tends to be, seemed way out of character. But I loved him that way. Manipulative Jin is awesome with all his bad acting. Lol. I laughed so hard, it made my night, seriously. And the way he quashed all attempts at protest at the end with his chipper invite to Mugen as he dragged him from the house...hah!
Everyone else seemed very in character, though. Which made it all the more fun to read Jin as you portrayed him. Can't wait to see the conversation with Mugen in the next chapter...so away I go!

Omg, that was sooooo gooooddd! Nice job!

| Guest chapter 12 . 7/6/2013
o; I lowve you
| SimplyPocky chapter 12 . 6/30/2013
What a nice ending, though I'm still a bit worried of Mugen suddenly running off, but I guess Fuu will be there to tie him up or chase him down if he ever tried. And with Jin moving nearby, I'm sure he will be able to help them along the way. Boo, no baby, but still a brilliant ending that left me quite satisfied. It was a great read and I look forward to more stories from you, love:D Maybe a one-shot or a sequel of "family" life. *wink wink*
| SimplyPocky chapter 11 . 6/30/2013
Bloody hell *fans myself* that was steamy, love. Forget that last review, this chapter just made me feel all light and fluffy. Although, there's a pinch of worry still lingering for what comes next, I have a feeling everything will work out. They're so great together. Wow, I hope they have a kid. I can't imagine Mugen being a dad, but it would definitely be something to see.
| SimplyPocky chapter 10 . 6/30/2013
Oh my, I had some seriously mixed feelings about this chapter. I couldn't help but think that Fuu's seduction was nice for a change, but I knew it was going to lead to something bad. I didn't think Mugen would snap though. Fuu really irritated me, but I guess I forgot about that as the chapter went on.
But jeez I still couldn't enjoy their sappy smut because I can't help but think that they don't know about each others feelings!D: Still, you write some steamy scenes, love. It was top.
| SimplyPocky chapter 9 . 6/30/2013
So short, but so fun. Fuu really knows how to handle Mugen, it's kind of cute, though I feel sorry for him because it's kind of like he's being played with...at least from his perspective. Fuu needs to come out and tell him her feelings already!
| SimplyPocky chapter 8 . 6/30/2013
Oh I love love love Jin! And poor Mugen I just want to coddle him, that was so sad. Fuu needs to be the badass I know she is, take charge, and tie Mugen down and never let him go.

I am trying to set up the plugin. When I enter an explicit list or a youtube playlist it seems to work fine. However when I select a Channel Feed it gives me the following error message every time...
An error was found while updating your gallery.
YouTube user - is not a valid youtube user.
What is causing this? I am very eager to get the video gallery up and running.
Thanks in advance.

The spectral UV and the cloud cover were measured at intervals of 5 min with an integrated cloud and spectral UV measurement system at a sub-tropical Southern Hemisphere site for a 6-month period and solar zenith angle (SZA) range of 4.7° to approximately 80°. The solar UV spectra were recorded between 280 nm and 400 nm in 0.5 nm increments and weighted with the action spectra for photokeratitis and cataracts in order to investigate the effect of cloud cover on the horizontal plane biologically damaging UV irradiances for cataracts (UVBEcat) and photokeratitis (UVBEpker). Eighty five percent of the recorded spectra produced a measured irradiance to a cloud free irradiance ratio of 0.6 and higher while 76% produced a ratio of 0.8 and higher. Empirical non-linear expressions as a function of SZA have been developed for all sky conditions to allow the evaluation of the biologically damaging UV irradiances for photokeratitis and cataracts from a knowledge of the unweighted UV irradiances.

I've always noticed steady usage of my CPU from 'services.exe', typically from 1-4%, constantly throughout the day. If I enable the CPU Time column and sort the processes, I can see that over time services.exe rises to the top, right below the idle process. It's not a big deal, but it does hurt performance, and more importantly, battery life.
However, I have found that if I restart the service 'Windows Management Instrumentation' it completely stops the CPU usage! The interesting bit is the process 'WmiPrvSE.exe' does not record any real CPU usage over time. Once I restart WMI(Windows Management Instrumentation) from services.msc, services.exe CPU usage literally drops to 0%, and stays there.
If I check the properties of 'Windows Management Instrumentation' I see there are some services which depend on it, these services are restarted when WMI is restarted. These are the following services which are listed as dependant on WMI:
1) Intel Rapid Storage Technology
2) Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)
3) IP Helper
4) Security Center
5) VMWare Authorization Service
6) VMWare USB Arbitration Service
I've tried stopping/starting each one of these services individually but there is no effect on the CPU usage. If I restart WMI and watch the usage from task manager, the last item which is stopped is WMI itself, and it's at that exact point the CPU usage drops from 1-5 -> 0%.
So I ask you, what can I do to find what's causing this behaviour? I don't want to restart this service every time I login.
