Template Data Interface (TDI, /ʹtedɪ/) is a markup templating system written in Python with (optional but recommended) speedup code written in C. Unlike most templating systems, TDI does not invent its own language to provide functionality. Instead, you simply mark the nodes you want to manipulate within the template document. The template is parsed, and the marked nodes are presented to your Python code, where they can be modified in any way you want.

No, this is not channeling MC Hammer. Well, not too much, anyway… So what if it is? I blame the "Can't Be Touched 2011″ gem of a remix that leads this post, canonizing Dirk Nowitzki with such an eloquent song, courtesy of that well-known bard, Roy Jones, Jr. It's clearly Nowitzki's world, all of the time; so much so, in fact, his play can take your song and make it fresher, and much more appropriate.

Hi Everyone,
Things have been going great with the Challenge but suddenly it's week 10 and I am STARVING! I'm eating exactly what and when I am supposed to (practically straight from the BFL book). Is this happening to anyone else? I read that a lot of changes happen the last 2 weeks - is my metabolism up or something? My question is - should I do anything about it? Should I add in another snack or snack on celery or something?
Thanks! -Mandy
Yes, this is normal. I remember being the same way. I felt famished the last two weeks. Your body is in full force fat burning mode!! I ate more the last two weeks, I just made sure it was clean food. I remember adding a full meal on most days, and on others just drinking a casein shake or eating some cottage cheese before bedtime. Good job getting so close to the end of your challenge. I will be anxious to hear your results!!
"The only person you should try to be better than, is the person you were yesterday!"
Whew! I am so happy to hear that, thank you! I was afraid I would ruin some progress if I added more food to the day but those are great suggestions. Thank you so much!

Magby is often overlooked because of Elekid, which has fantastic coverage and slightly higher Speed. However, Magby has many advantages over Elekid. Its 120 Base Power STAB attacks easily out-muscle Elekid's much weaker base 75 and 95 attacks. Magby also has Mach Punch, which is far better than Elekid's Quick Attack due to its typing and ability to hit Houndour, a Pokémon who can switch into its STAB for free.
Magby has one huge weakness however: its weakness to Stealth Rock. This makes Magby unable to switch in and out as it pleases, and gives it only 3-4 switch-ins before it bites the dust. Because of this, Magby needs to be played to its strengths, hitting hard and fast, knocking out the opponent before it gets knocked out. With so many Pokémon falling to Magby's powerful attacks, Magby should be considered for almost any offensive team.
Magby has all of the right tools to be a top-notch sweeper in the Little Cup metagame, and this set takes advantage of all of them. Flare Blitz coming off of 17 Attack is especially potent, especially when it's also boosted by Life Orb. With Houndour being around, Magby can take advantage of its priority move, Mach Punch, which easily KOes Houndour while avoiding Sucker Punch. Priority is a godsend in Little Cup, because 40 Base Power is usually enough to finish off any fast and frail foe after taking only minor damage. Magby is also gifted with ThunderPunch, a great tool to rid the battle of Water-types who may switch in, especially Pokémon such as Mantyke, Slowpoke, and Kabuto, who will usually be your opponent's first line of defense against Fire-type attacks. With these attacks, Magby can OHKO a majority of the metagame, while being able to 2HKO even the most sturdy walls such as Munchlax (the Leftovers variant), who is 2HKOed by Flare Blitz as long as Stealth Rock is on the field. Beware of Flare Blitz recoil when you use this set, as it can be deadly for Magby after even two uses.
The last slot is pretty flexible, but Overheat is recommended for its sheer power. With a solid 13 Special Attack stat, a STAB Overheat is still strong enough to OHKO major threats such as Gligar, who could otherwise survive any of Magby's physical attacks, even Flare Blitz. Brick Break is an option to hit Munchlax for the guaranteed OHKO, but leaves Magby open to Gligar. Hidden Power Grass is an option to OHKO Pokémon such as Geodude, Rhyhorn, and Kabuto who would otherwise cause some trouble for this set. However, they are quite uncommon. Overheat is still preferred for that reason, not to mention its ability to get the KO on most of the previously mentioned Rock-types after they switch into a Flare Blitz. Overheat also makes for a safe opening attack due to Flare Blitz recoil.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
While this set looks similar to the above set, its playstyle is quite different. This set is purely made for beating the opponent's bulky Pokémon down with hard-hitting attacks. Fire Blast is Magby's main attack, giving Bronzor and any Pokémon who doesn't resist Fire-type attacks a one way ticket back to its Pokéball. Here is where the two sets differ; this set can use Cross Chop, ThunderPunch, and Hidden Power Grass in one move set, giving Magby potentially the best super effective coverage possible in Little Cup. Cross Chop is Magby's main tool for getting rid of Munchlax, who is KOed after switching into any other attack, and is OHKOed most of the time with just Stealth Rock in play. Hidden Power Grass takes care of Pokémon such as Geodude and Kabuto, who have the Defense needed to survive a Cross Chop. ThunderPunch takes care of Mantyke, and also gives Magby a reliable way to take out Drifloon.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Even with a base Speed stat of 83, Magby is still outsped by a select few unboosted Pokémon and Choice Scarf users. This makes Magby a great candidate for a Choice Scarf, with its respectable Attack stat and great coverage. With Magby's impressive Speed stat, it will outspeed the majority of Choice Scarf users, and even some Rock Polish users such as Rhyhorn. Flare Blitz is Magby's move of choice, dishing out plenty of damage to any foe that isn't resistant to it. ThunderPunch takes care of most Water-types switching in, with the exception of Chinchou. Hidden Power Ice is great in the last slot to revenge kill Gligar, and even hit some of the bulkier Rock-types. Brick Break can be used over Mach Punch with Choice Scarf to revenge kill most Aron (defensive variants can still survive), as Mach Punch won't OHKO. Flare Blitz is illegal with Cross Chop, so you are reduced to using Fire Punch as a main STAB move if you want the stronger Fighting-type attack than Brick Break. If you want the extra punch, Magby can use a Lonely nature as its Speed is already blistering fast.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
In theory, Magby should be able to pull off an effective Belly Drum set due to its Speed and power. Setting up with Magby is difficult, but not impossible with support from Pokémon such as Wynaut with Encore. However, Belly Drum Magby is actually able to be beaten by some very common Pokémon, even after a Salac Berry (without a Salac Berry, Magby is easily outsped by Choice Scarf users). Since Mach Punch is illegal with Belly Drum, Magby will have extreme difficulty with most priority users. For these reasons, Magby is better off using mixed Life Orb or Choice Scarf sets than an extremely situational Belly Drum set.
The special-oriented wallbreaker set can also be used with Substitute and Focus Punch, which eases prediction and gives Magby an easier time with Pokémon such as Lickitung. However, sacrificing either Grass- or Electric-type coverage is definitely not good, so the listed sets are generally better. Iron Tail is an option for the Choice Band set, 2HKOing Rock-types, but its 75% accuracy leaves something to be desired, and Cross Chop is often a more effective move.
Flamethrower is an option over Fire Blast if you are an accuracy freak. However, Fire Blast guarantees many OHKOs, most notably a KO on Gligar. Similarly, Brick Break can be used over Cross Chop for the sake of accuracy. A special Choice set can also be used, but 16 Special Attack will only get you so far. However, if you like the "hit-and-run" style of play, a Modest Magby's Overheat will deal loads of damage to incoming switch-ins or whatever is on the battlefield. This is made even better by its 27 Speed after Choice Scarf and its ability to carry Cross Chop for Munchlax.
Focus Sash is usable on any set without Flare Blitz as well, giving Magby a chance to usually get at least two attacks on your opponent, and since Magby has such top-notch offensive stats, two attacks is usually enough to KO the average Pokémon.
Magby is one of the hardest Pokémon to switch into due to its excellent type coverage and power. In fact, not one Pokémon can safely switch into Magby without the risk of getting OHKOed or 2HKOed, largely due to a lack of Dragon- and Flying-types to absorb Fighting- and Fire-type attacks like there are in OU and UU. Now Mantyke could switch into any of the aforementioned attacks, but that's where ThunderPunch comes in. The best (or only) way to deal with the Life Orb mixed attacker set is to predict, and send something in that can take a Mach Punch on top of the attack that it switched into. This leaves few options, but the most reliable options are likely Choice Scarf Cyndaquil or Chinchou. Cyndaquil is not hit super effectively by any of Magby's attacks, and can KO with Hidden Power Ground. Chinchou is similar, and it can easily KO with a STAB Surf. Gligar also does well, as it resists both of Magby's non-STAB attacks and is not KOed by Flare Blitz. Overheat has a 2% chance to KO it without Stealth Rock, and a 100% chance to KO it with Stealth Rock, so watch out for a Life Orb-boosted Overheat. It also has a 50% chance of winning the Speed tie with Magby, thus allowing it to come out of the matchup largely unscathed.
The best method to rid yourself of Magby is revenge killing. As long as a Choice Scarf user isn't weak to Mach Punch, you can safely KO Magby with its weak defenses. Aqua Jet users such as Buizel or Squirtle can also quickly douse Magby for the revenge kill. Diglett gets a mention for its ability to trap and OHKO Magby with Earthquake, and it can switch into ThunderPunch unscathed due to its Ground typing.

We love this restaurant! – We have enjoyed the Yucatan several times now and it is always a treat. Portions are generous and the consistently delicious. Kid friendly and fast service. Try the house hot sauce. recommendations: Burrito de carne desada, vegetarian burrito, sopitas.
Hole in the wall – The Good- Lots of good food at a fair price! Food is hot and fresh! Good Drinks at a fair price. Family Friendly by a family ran eatery. The salsa is good but try the jalape?o paste salsa! attentive servers who mostly speak Spanish.
The Bad- Family ran, so you wait sometimes to be seated, for the check, and the food; this is not a FAST FOOD stop, there is some time to be spent if you eat here. Cantina can be a bit loud and obnoxious as it is seperated by a series of thin glass panel doors with curtains. Some servers only speak spanish, practise up!
The Ugly-Location, Next to the laundrymat and liquor store, not that location is everything, but it sure helps!
It's in a strip mall that is not brand new.
Bottom Line- Very good (Authentic) Mexican with food and flavors you can taste, not bland and not smoothered in cheese. It's a family ran place and nobody is running and only the Catina folks are crawling. If you like shinney and new this is not it, It's in a strip mall next to 'suds yer duds' and those stopping in to refill what they over drank last weekend. I take my family here as they have a great kids menu (that adults can get too) and crayons, yes adults can use those too!
YUM! – AWESOME food and you get a ton of it for the price. Some of the best mexican food around! Family owned and run and very authentic. The chips and salsa are to die for.

iTunes Radio will spur more people to digital radio from broadcast radio, not from Pandora to Apple, the company's financial chief says. However, Pandora's international horizon remains dim by comparison.
Apple's streaming music service notched 11 million unique listeners in just five days. If it can maintain that pace, it will topple Pandora from its seat at the top of the Internet radio market. But that's a big "if."
The Internet's biggest radio service hires Sara Clemens, a former Microsoft executive with lots of international credentials on her resume, as its chief strategy officer.
The Internet's biggest radio service had its biggest quarterly earnings since its IPO in 2011, but investors were dismayed that the windfall would be short-lived, based on Pandora's Q1 loss forecast.
The Internet's top radio service adds station recommendations to its app for iOS and Android smartphones and tablets, aiming to stretch listening longer.
Apple might seem late to the streaming-music world, but really the digital music revolution is just getting going.
The Webcaster announces that Chrysler is the latest auto manufacturer to integrate Pandora into its cars. The service expands distribution platform.

These skis were for my adventurous and advanced 7 year-old. He was transformed after skiing on these new skis. He could feel the difference from his older equipment and claims that he can ski more difficult runs much easier.
Perfect Colorado kids ski

My 10 year old needed a great all mountain ski. I love the Volkl ELP on my Shiros so I knew it would help him turn easier, stay on top of the soft stuff, and still be able to turn on the groomers.

We're excited about The Well, which opens in June in Bushwick. Otherwise, Eater has thrown together a great list of openings slotted for New York very soon. Here are the North Brooklyn picks:
Arrogant Swine
Where: 173 Morgan Avenue, East Williamsburg
When: July or August
What: The very first restaurant from Tyson Ho, the proprietor of the Hog Days of Summer pop-up series. At this massive new Morgan Avenue restaurant, Ho will be focusing on west Carolina-style whole hog barbecue and country ham. The barbecue buff recently told Serious Eatsthat he wants to establish the restaurant as "a church of pork." You can track Arrogant Swine's progress on Ho's Instagram.
Littleneck Outpost
Where: 128 Franklin St., Greenpoint
When: Early May
What: Aaron Lefkove and Andy Curtin (AKA the Littleneck dudes) expand to Greenpoint with a cafe that will serve lobster rolls, clam rolls, and other sandwiches, plus breakfast items and La Colombe coffee in the morning. Littleneck Outpost will also offer specialty grocery items, kitchenware, and picnic boxes to go.
The Meat Hook Sandwich
Where: 495 Lorimer St., Williamsburg
When: Early May
What: A sandwich shop from Tom Mylan and the crew from Williamsburg's beloved four-and-a-half-year-old butcher shop The Meat Hook. Expect an Italian sub stuffed with house-made charcuterie, a grilled ham and cheese sandwich, a Cubano filled with lard-poached carnitas, and a gyro made with grass-fed beef. [Read more...]
Earlier today, DNAInfo reported that Bay Ridge is the new Williamsburg. This is a ridiculous claim, obviously. Bay Ridge is like 2 hours from Manhattan.
But that did not stop literally every single local blog from penning 600-word essays speculating whether or not Bay Ridge is, in fact, the new Williamsburg. Speculation about the new Williamsburg/Brooklyn and pointless screeds about why X, Y, or Z neighborhood and/or city is absolutely not the new Williamsburg and/or Brooklyn keep bloggers' families fed and warm at night.
Saint Vitus turned three on Tuesday (4/15) and hosted Spirit Caravan to honor the occasion. Video below:
Last week, we reported that luxury condos will soon usurp the tumbledown je ne sais quos of Wythe Ave. from South Williamsburg all the way up to Greenpoint. Today we learned from Crain's where the future residents of those condos will buy their flat-front khakis for $75: J.Crew. Full disclosure: I like J.Crew's khakis, but I would not pay $75 for them. Maybe like $25 if they were on sale.
Crain's also told us that Apple plans to open a store in Williamsburg. Great news if you don't want to trek to one of the four Manhattan locations to get your $800 phone built by slave laborers fixed because INSTAGRAM ISN'T WORKING.
When he wasn't bending over to Wall Street fat cats or real estate moguls, Bloomberg was always an admirably outspoken crusader for gun control. For his first big project since leaving office, he's decided to up the ante and take on the NRA and the Koch brothers directly with his own gun control group, Everytown for Gun Safety. (We know, terrible name.) He's tossing in $50 million of his own money and says "we've got to make [politicians] afraid of us." If anyone can out-bully the NRA, its Bloomberg. He's undoubtedly an expert on the matter — just ask Fran. [Read more...]
On the last leg of the tour supporting their sophomore album Sunswimmer, New Madrid is playing CAMEO this Saturday. Sunswimmer is the quintessential new sound of Southern rock. The album is not too hard hitting, but still has an edge, a little dreamy at times with a touch of drawl. The upbeat, distorted guitar riffs over a steady beat topped with melodic, echoing vocals feel like a drunken Sunday afternoon below the blue Georgia sky.
New Madrid formed in 2010, when most members lived in Tennessee. Finally, the band decided to end the long distance relationship and move in together in a converted barn less than five minutes from their recording studio, joining lead vocalist Phil McGill in the small college town of Athens, Ga. The band felt like it was a better fit for them than "Music City" Nashville, and I couldn't agree more. [Read more...]

Wright Words: Virginia stake experiences tender mercy after rare Hill Cumorah Pageant cancellation
Liam Cleary
PALMYRA, N.Y. — On the evening of July 19, young men and women from the Winchester Virginia Stake of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints wandered the grounds of the Hill Cumorah Pageant awaiting the start of the nightly performance. Approximately 140 youths and leaders had traveled nearly 400 miles by bus and car to visit the Palmyra New York Temple, see nearby LDS Church history sites and to enjoy the annual summertime pageant.
The outdoor spectacle, with its special effects and cast of hundreds, would be the pinnacle of a youth conference that was 11 months in the making and the sweet result of significant sweat equity by many leaders and families. But for many youths, and even some adults, the sacrifice would pay off with an uplifting, once-in-a-lifetime experience.
As the 9:15 p.m. performance time approached, so, too, did ominous clouds. With the pageant set to begin, a storm lit up the sky like a tardy July Fourth fireworks display.
The crowd of nearly 9,000 listened quietly as a voice announced a 15-minute delay in hopes the electrical storm would pass and the show could safely begin. But 15 minutes later, the voice returned and made the announcement that broke hearts.
The show could not go on.
According to pageant president Dwight Schwendiman, for just the second time in 15 years and fifth time in 37 years, a performance of the Hill Cumorah Pageant was canceled.
Eleven months of careful planning, penny pinching and prayer had led to this: a mad scramble back to a soggy parking lot. The young men and women were devastated. A tender, confused 14-year-old girl stopped me in the dash to the two charter buses. "So, we don't get to see the pageant?"
My heart ached. If I could have found a costume and climbed to the stage, I would have.
The next morning, the stake's two buses and a caravan of chaperones made the short drive from our lodging at Hobart and William Smith College in Geneva, N.Y., to the Peter Whitmer farm in Waterloo for a final stop and a testimony meeting. From there we would make the eight-hour drive home. The sting from the night before had eased, but all were still disappointed to have missed something some had waited years to see.
Then, just as quickly as the show had been canceled, a tender mercy arrived from heaven in a most unusual way.
At one point during our tour of the grounds, I noticed both drivers huddled around the back of one of our buses with parts strewn across the ground. We learned that one of the buses had experienced a major computer malfunction and wouldn't start. It didn't take long for them to determine the bus would not be going anywhere but on the back of tow truck.
The drivers called their main office in Virginia, half-jokingly ruled out sabotage, and began hunting for a plan B, C and D to get us home. However, there were few options and no replacement buses to be found nearby. The best solution was for our charter company to send a new bus all the way from home. It could arrive no sooner than 8 p.m.
After counseling as a stake presidency, then with the bishops and stake young men and women presidencies, and finally with unanimous support of the youths, inspired stake President Randall Bartlett announced we would remain in the area all day, attend the pageant that evening at 9:15 p.m. and return home immediately after.
We needed to call every single parent or guardian to let them know the change in plans and seek permission to adjust the schedule. But they couldn't have been surprised — they must have heard the cheers and tears all the way from Virginia.
Creative leaders sprung into action to arrange additional meals, activities and new transportation plans to get our youths back to the pageant grounds with half as many seats. Every time a new wrinkle rose to the surface, prayer and faith ironed out an answer.

It will look to high with a tub installed in place. If you have the plumber coming back for the tub why not lower it down. That's like a 10 minute job!
Several years ago, my DH removed our Tub/Shower and replaced it with a shower. In doing so, he placed a pressure balance valve at the normal shower height. We have now decided to replace said shower with a Tub/Shower once again. My question is; can we leave the pressure balance valve at the "shower height", or is there a reason we would "have to" move it down by the spout. Since the tub/shower will be used most often as a shower, thought it would be handier, having the pressure balance control at the higher position.
It will look to high with a tub installed in place. If you have the plumber coming back for the tub why not lower it down. That's like a 10 minute job!

My guess is that you don't know how to deal with the hole in the wall at shower valve height? If he installed a pressure balance valve for a shower only, it is going to need to be replaced with a tub/shower valve because there will be no outlet for a tub spout.
The only real issue with the valve being too high is that the user will have to get up to operate the valve. I would consider it a pretty big inconvenience if I was soaking in the tub.
It would certainly be more convenient if it was reachable while in the tub, but it may not be that big an issue if you're the type that fills the tub before you get in, and never sit there long enough to want to add some more hot. Most people with a tub/shower, only use it as a tub rarely. I must admit, I'm in the minority, and to help my back, I do soak in mine regularly, so lower would be much more functional. With the wall open, it makes sense to move it. Personally, I could live with it either way.

Some may shower standing in the tub, and others may have help in filling, such as for children.
Most of the time, it's going to be for showering. I've seen all kinds of things done with showers and tubs.
It won't harm a thing leaving it where it is.
Anytime somebody calls me up to say something like, "I have a leak in the crawlspace, it's only a 10 minute job." I refer them to someone else.That's like a 10 minute job!
If I'm taking a couple hours of my day to get paid for ten minutes, I would rather service the "paying" customers that value my time. I do freebies for family, but that's about it.
Apropos joke about "10 minute job":
A brain surgeon had a bad leak and a flood on a Sunday, he called a few plumbers but only one agreed to come over. This plumber came and fixed the leak in ten minutes. He handed the surgeon a bill.
Surgeon: Holly Macro, $500 for a ten minute job? I'm a surgeon and I don't get that much...
Plumber: I used to be a brain surgeon, that why I'm a plumber now.

Canine Health Problem
Pets, especially dogs, occupy a special place in the hearts of their owners. Like that of any other family member, the dog's health is your responsibility. Whereas common ailments like ticks, skin problems, anal blockages, can easily be handled with the aid of Homeopathic medicine for your pets, Cat Herbal Remedies, and Dog Herbal Remedies some of the canine health problems are serious in nature but can be avoided by regular checkups by a veterinarian who will advise you of the prevention and cures for these.
One of the major threats in canine health is a heart disease that can be acquired or congenital in nature. Heart disease in dogs occurs mainly when normal blood flow is restricted when the dog's heart valves do not close properly or the muscular walls of the dog's heart are thinned and weakened. Difficult breathing even while at rest, fainting, a loathing for exercise, loss of appetite, and weight loss are indicative of an impending heart failure.
The heartworm disease is caused by mosquito bites. Heartworm disease is not breed specific and can attack any dog even if the dog is mainly indoors most of the times, because the female mosquito responsible for transmission of heartworm is very tiny and can slip through cracks in windows and doors. If not treated in time, heartworm disease can be fatal at times.
Heartworm disease has the potential of spreading as lots of people travel with their dogs. Many states insist upon a health certificate from a qualified veterinarian. On return, dog owners should get their pet reexamined to ensure that it did not pick any parasite, external or internal, while traveling. Heartworm, hookworm, and roundworm are internal parasites whereas fleas and ticks are external.
The greatest single threat to dog population the world over is from the highly contagious disease caused by canine distemper virus. Puppies and younger dogs are at a higher risk on contracting the canine distemper virus. Although dogs that survive a natural infection develop enough immunity to canine distemper virus, the safest protection is vaccination.
Canine Parvovirus, Canine Bordetellosis (Kennel Cough), Canine Parainfluenza, and Canine Leptospirosis are some of the other problems that are caused by viral or bacterial infections, spread through contact, through fecal waste and nasal secretions of infested dogs, and other means.
All the conditions discussed above are serious in nature and can prove to be fatal in case they are not attended to in time. If abnormal symptoms, like loss of appetite, unwillingness to exercise, difficulty in breathing even while at rest, fainting, extensive coughing, vomiting, squinting, congestion of the eyes, and a discharge of pus from the eyes and diarrhea persist, a visit to the veterinarian is highly recommended.

NewsPress Release: 10/25/00El Salvador in the Eye of the Beholder Presented at Marlboro College
MARLBORO, VT - November 1 to 21, Marlboro College presents El Salvador in the Eye of the Beholder in the College's Drury Gallery. In the Eye of the Beholder features photographs selected by the curator, Katy Lyle, from an archive of 80,000 negatives collected by the Salvadorian people to preserve and protect an accurate record of their lives. This phographic exhibition displays aesthetically compelling work that reveals the Salvadoran panorama from 1979 to the present in scenes of startling intimacy.
Katy Lyle first heard of the El Salvador Photo Archive in March 1989. For the next year, she examined the negatives, and collected information and anecdotes about the photographs as they were identified. "This is the creative output of a people struggling to survive, and demonstrating a powerful will to remain visible in a war waged largely through disappearance," said Lyle.
Described as "unique and uncommonly moving" by Vicki Goldberg of the New York Times, the exhibition includes a variety of poignant and through-provoking photographs depicting facets of life in El Salvador. The text accompanying the exhibition directly quotes prominent Salvadorans as well as peasants and students; like the photographs, the text documents the Salvadoran experience with a personal immediacy.
The gallery, which is fully accessible, is open from 1 to 5 p.m. Sunday through Friday. This event is free and open to the public.

By Liliana Moyano for Shine LatinaColombian Eggnog
Mi nana was great in the kitchen and had some very unique recipes that the family requests on special occasions to this day. She was famous for her empanadas, bean soup and caspiroleta. Caspiroleta is a dairy based drink she made before bedtime; it was the perfect, warm treat before going to sleep.
As we grew older, her version of caspiroleta became a holiday tradition when she decided to make it more festive by adding rum. The texture and flavor is similar to eggnog but not as sweet, spiced with cinnamon, brown sugar and a dash of flour to help thicken the mixture. Gearing up for the holidays, I got the recipe from my nana to recreate it this season. Enjoy it while chatting up your loved ones. ¡Salud!Nana's Caspiroleta
Try this recipe with my plantain soup
(2 servings)
2 cups milk
2 tsp. brown sugar
1 egg
2 oz. dark rum
Warm up the milk in a pot set at low heat. Gradually whisk in sugar to the milk.Read More »from The Ultimate Eggnog Recipe

– The North Georgia men's soccer team played to a
scoreless intermission Wednesday evening, but Lenoir-Rhyne came out
firing in the second period to come away with a 2-1 victory over
the Saints in non-conference action.
North Georgia drops their second straight game and fall to 2-3 on the year, while Lenoir-Rhyne improves to 2-2 on the season.
With the game still scoreless heading into the 70th minute, the Bears came alive, using a pair of headers less than two minutes apart to snag a 2-0 lead over the Saints. Dave Bailey recorded both goals for L-R, now leading the squad with four scores on the season.
The North Georgia goal came in the 79th minute as Ben Chedgy used a free kick from 40 yards out following an L-R foul to put the Saints on the board. The serve in the box was misplayed as the ball bounced past the L-R keeper and just over the line to cut the Bears' lead in half with 11 minutes remaining in the contest.
The Bears held on as they broke up any chance for a late rally from the Saints. Francisco Banuelos had three saves in the victory for L-R, while North Georgia goalkeeper Sean Durkan had six saves in the loss.
In the physical match, L-R committed 16 fouls to North Georgia's 11, as the battle was contained to the middle of the field for the majority of the game.
North Georgia returns to action on Saturday afternoon, opening Peach Belt Conference play on the campus of USC Aiken. The all-important league-opener is set for 6:00 p.m. at the Pacer Pit.

WHAT IS IT? Dirt Tricks' automatic KTM cam chain tensioner uses oil pressure, combined with a mechanical ratchet system, to maintain constant pressure on the timing chain (and avoids the possibility of the cam tensioner collapsing during oil pressure fluctuations).
(1) Oil pressure. The stock KTM cam chain tensioner is hydraulic. It uses pumped oil pressure to press the slider pad against the timing chain. KTM is the only Big Five motocross manufacturer to use hydraulic oil pressure to regulate cam chain slap. Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki and Kawasaki use the traditional spring tension adjuster. Dirt Tricks' tensioner harnesses KTM's oil pressure, but mates it with the added benefit of a spring-loaded ratchet system. Best of all, the irritating ticking sound that KTMs make on warm-up is reduced because the engine doesn't have to wait for the oil pressure to build up before the timing chain is buffered.
(2) Ratchet. Why is the ratchet system so cool? The OEM components have a serious flaw in that fluctuations in engine oil pressure can allow the cam chain tensioner to back off from the slider pad (leaving the cam chain loose). Dirt Tricks' cam chain tensioner still uses oil pressure, but backs it up with a spring-and-ratchet system, which prevents the slider pad from backing off. There are 11 ratchet clicks on the Dirt Tricks unit.
(3) Fitment. The Dirt Tricks cam chain tensioner works on 2005 to 2009 KTM 250 four-strokes, 2007 to 2009 450SXFs, 2008 and 2009 400, 450, 505, 530 XC and EXC models and all models that use RC4, XC4 or RF4 engines (including Husabergs). It does not work on the RFS engine.
(4) Installation. It takes about five minutes to install the Dirt Tricks cam chain tensioner. It uses the stock KTM caps and seals so that the oil pressure system is not compromised.
WHAT'S THE SQUAWK? We don't have one. It should be noted that the KTM race team uses a ratcheting cam chain tensioner. This is simple, textbook engineering.
It is easy to overlook the value of a cam chain tensioner, but the next time you start your KTM four-stroke and hear that awful clatter, you'll know the importance of a properly adjusted cam chain tensioner.

NASHVILLE - Junior forward Meghan Bussabarger scored a career-high 29 points but Austin Peay State University women's basketball team had few answers down the stretch in a 90-73 loss to Murray State, Thursday, in quarterfinal action of the Ohio Valley Conference Women's Basketball Championship at Municipal Auditorium.
Austin Peay (9-22) led nearly the entire first half. The Lady Govs stretched their lead to its maximum just past the period's halfway point. Bussabarger was a one-woman show scoring 11 consecutive APSU points over a three minute span to build the Austin Peay lead to 12 points, 36-24, with 5:15 remaining. Junior Leslie Martinez' basket 30 seconds later gave the Lady Govs a 14-point, 38-24, lead that would be its largest of the contest.
Murray State (13-17) closed the half with an 18-7 run over the final 4:07 as Kyra Watson sliced through the Austin Peay defense for eight points during the half-ending run. Mallory Schwab's three-pointer with 29 seconds left cut the deficit to one point, 43-42, at halftime.
The second half saw the two teams trade baskets over the opening 15-plus minutes with neither team enjoying more than a one-possession lead.
But Murray State changed the game's momentum on a Mariah Robinson three-pointer that was the first of 10 consecutive points that broke the game open. It was the beginning of an 18-2 game-ending run that gave the Racers the win. Austin Peay's cold shooting only got worse as the game wound down as it would miss its final seven shots.
Bussabarger's 29 points - she had 18 points in the first half - came on 11-of-13 shooting, including 2-fo-3 from three-point range, and a 5-of-6 effort from the free-throw line.
Freshman Shelby Olszewski added a 15-point, six-rebound performance. Senior Whitney Hanley, who scored 38 points in APSU's opening-round win, scored 10 points in Thursday's loss, making 3-of-13 from the floor. Martinez added 10 points and grabbed 11 rebounds.
Watson led Murray State with 23 points and Robinson added a 21-point outing. Schwab posted an 18-point, 11-rebound double-double effort.

Priest and lector in Rome, Italy. Bishop of Vercelli, Italy, consecrated on 16 December 340. Exiled to Palestine and Cappadocia due to his struggle against Arianism. Friend of Saint Athanasius of Alexandria. A profilic writer according to his contemporaries, none of his works have survived. First bishop to live with and follow the same rule as his priests. May have been martyred by Arians, but reports vary; many consider him a martyr as he may have died as a result of his sufferings in exile.

If you don't think of '80s music as powerful stuff, think of the line "born and raised in South Detroit."
The "Rock of Ages" cast. The musical is at Merrill Auditorium in Portland on Saturday.

WHEN: 8 p.m. Saturday
WHERE: Merrill Auditorium, 20 Myrtle St., Portland
HOW MUCH: $51 to $76
INFO: porttix.com; portlandovations.org
Millions of people around the world can hear that phrase in any context and think one thought: Journey.
Specifically, Journey's 1981 hit song "Don't Stop Believin'," about a boy who was, indeed, born and raised in the fictional city of South Detroit. (Is the implication that it's even grittier than Detroit proper?) From that locale, he goes off on his own to pursue big dreams, big hair, big arena rock shows, and all the other excesses celebrated so loudly in the pop music of the 1980s.
It makes sense, then, that a musical celebrating the over-the-top theatrics and silliness of '80s music and pop culture has a lead character who was born and raised in South Detroit. He's a character who doesn't, at least for the musical's two-plus hours, stop believin'.
His name is Drew, and he and his other Spandex- and headband-wearing contemporaries will be at Portland's Merrill Auditorium on Saturday in a Broadway tour production of "Rock of Ages," presented by Portland Ovations.
So get that perm you've always wanted, break out your Members Only jacket and bone up on the difference between Whitesnake and Great White.
"Rock of Ages" has been attracting fans of all ages, not just old fogies who lived through the '80s, since it was created in 2006.
Take, for example, the guy who will play Drew in Portland, actor and singer Dominique Scott. The 25-year-old was barely walking in the 1980s, and had practically no working knowledge of '80s music before taking the role a year and a half ago. But since then, he's formed some theories on why music of the Reagan era still thrives.
"I think the reason people still want to hear these songs 30 years later is that it's just exciting. It's not the most complex music in the world, but it's fun, the kind of music that makes kids jump up and down on their beds playing air guitar," said Scott, a native of Miami now living in New York.
"It's just something really human to want to let go and rock out to your favorite songs. At that time, it was a big cultural thing to get all psyched up for a concert, get drunk and yell at the big power chords. People don't let loose like that at concerts today."
"Rock of Ages" is a Tony Award-nominated musical built around 28 of the biggest hits of the '80s. Besides "Don't Stop Believin'," they include "We Built This City" by Starship, "Wanted Dead or Alive" by Bon Jovi, "Here I Go Again" by Whitesnake, "Can't Fight This Feeling" by REO Speedwagon and "I Want to Know What Love Is" by Foreigner.
The story is set in 1987 in Los Angeles, in the clubs of the legendary Sunset Strip, where we're introduced to Drew. He's paired off with Sherrie, a small-town girl. Both chase their dreams of making it big as they encounter club owners, sleazy businessmen, rock stars, groupies and wannabes.
The musical was made into a 2012 film starring Tom Cruise and Russell Brand. But the film wasn't a big hit, and didn't gain the sort of cult status that the stage musical has as it's traveled from Broadway to stages all around the world.
"Rock of Ages" is in its fourth year on Broadway, where it's been performed more than 1,500 times. The first U.S. tour of the show was launched in 2010, giving opportunities to aspiring young performers like Scott.
Scott studied musical theater and jazz piano at Syracuse University, so his path to musical fame is a little different from his character's in "Rock of Ages." But he did move to New York to hit it big, and he fronts his own rock band.

Philadelphia, PA -
03/21/2013 - As part of its longstanding commitment to enriching the quality of life for citizens throughout the Philadelphia region, The Pew Charitable Trusts today announced a restructuring of its culture program that will make The Pew Center for Arts and Heritage its primary vehicle for arts funding.Under the leadership of executive director Paula Marincola, the Center will continue to make grants in support of specific artistic projects—raising the maximum size of the awards from $250,000 to $300,000—and will introduce a new funding program to help organizations make longer-term investments that more effectively engage today's audiences. The Center's grants budget will increase by $2 million annually, from $8 million to $10 million.The Philadelphia Cultural Leadership Program, a separate Pew initiative that currently provides general operating support to 21 organizations, will be phased out by the end of 2015. Instead, The Pew Center for Arts and Heritage will add 20 percent to each of its project grants as unrestricted operating support. For example, an organization that receives a $300,000 grant to support a performance or exhibition will receive an additional $60,000 to cover general operating expenses. "The Pew Center has been a fabulous resource over the years for the city's cultural community—not just as a source of funding but as a convener and thought leader," said Donald Kimelman, managing director of The Pew Charitable Trusts' Philadelphia program. "This reorganization streamlines Pew's arts grantmaking, while providing the center an even fuller set of tools to enrich the region's cultural scene."Among the changes, which will go into effect starting with spring 2014 grants, The Pew Center for Arts and Heritage will restructure its project funding to better underwrite the most promising work, regardless of genre. It will combine the performance-related initiatives—theater, music and dance—into a single category, called Performance. Similarly, the exhibitions and heritage initiatives will be combined into one category, Exhibitions. As it does today, the Pew Fellowships in the Arts will continue to award $60,000 each year to 12 of the region's most exemplary artists.Project grants will continue to be decided by panels of leading experts from outside the region who have deep knowledge of their respective fields. The consolidation will streamline the management and oversight structure, while reducing panel costs, thereby resulting in savings that can be invested directly in the most promising initiatives. The Center will also introduce a new line of funding called Advancement Grants. Recognizing that many arts organizations need to make fundamental changes to ensure a robust future, advancement grants of up to $500,000 will be available to organizations that develop new and better ways to accomplish their missions. These grants will support not only the direct costs of programming, but also related capital and infrastructure needs, such as technology upgrades and audience engagement strategies. "The reorganization brings into even sharper focus the Center's emphasis on excellence, imagination, and public impact in the work that we support," said Paula Marincola, executive director of The Pew Center for Arts and Heritage. "The ability to consider projects that don't readily fit into single categories like dance or theater, for instance, responds to the fact that many groups are creating exciting new works that combine artistic disciplines. Overall, the changes should result in stronger organizations, and a richer array of offerings for our region's many and varied audiences."The Pew Center for Arts and Heritage was established in 2005 to house what were then The Pew Charitable Trusts' seven artistic initiatives: Philadelphia Music Project, Pew Fellowships in the Arts, Dance Advance, Philadelphia Theatre Initiative, Philadelphia Exhibitions Initiative, Heritage Philadelphia Program, and Philadelphia Cultural Management Initiative. Numerous Center-funded performances and exhibitions have enjoyed both critical praise and audience appeal, including: the Philadelphia Museum of Art's "Dancing Around the Bride;" Opera Philadelphia's "Silent Night;" the Arden Theatre's "Sunday in the Park with George;" the Mural Arts Program's "Love Letters" murals along the Market Street El; and "Emancipating Cliveden," a project that transformed an historic site into a vibrant neighborhood center.With these changes the Center will become, in effect, The Pew Charitable Trusts' Culture program, with greater engagement with Pew's senior leadership and board.The Philadelphia Cultural Leadership Program was first introduced in 1997 to encourage local cultural groups to raise their organizational and financial expertise. Today the groups that succeeded consistently in winning that support are regarded as leaders in the field, and their artistic excellence has contributed considerably to Philadelphia's growing reputation as a thriving cultural center.Since 2006, when The Pew Center for Arts and Heritage launched its grantmaking, the Center and the Philadelphia Cultural Leadership Program together have invested more than $67 million in arts and culture in the region.

Food and Drink
Dine on hearty Bordeaux fare or classic brasserie dishes. Savour foie gras, duck and game with full-bodied local wines in the gourmet restaurants of Old Bordeaux and Chartrons. Or choose popular old brasseries for fresh local oysters and langoustines. Head to riverside Place de la Victoire for lively al fresco dining.

Marvel at grandiose 18th-century façades and explore a goldmine of museums. Stroll elegant avenues in Old Bordeaux and admire the imposing neo-classical Grand Théâtre. Take in stirring views of magnificent riverside architecture, or appreciate something more modern at the Contemporary Arts Museum.

Stay safe in 'Tornado Alley'
Kansas is often regarded as being in "Tornado Alley," a section of the country where tornadoes are known to frequently appear.
Most tornadoes are actually much weaker and less violent than EF5, the most violent category of tornadoes. But any tornado warning should be taken seriously. The best way to survive a storm is to be prepared.
Prevention and practice before the storm
Whether at work or at home, know where you can take shelter in a matter of seconds. Most workplaces and schools will practice a tornado drill at least once a year. Do the same at your home. Have a tornado plan in place, based on the kind of dwelling you live in, and use the recommended safety tips below. Have a predetermined place for your family to meet after a disaster.
If a warning is issued or threatening weather approaches, always remember to DUCK, says the National Weather Service:
D own to the lowest level
U nder something sturdy
C over your head
K eep in the shelter until the storm has passed.
When a tornado watch – which means conditions are favorable for severe weather to form – is issued, check to make sure all your safety supplies are handy and that you know the drill for a warning. Turn on local TV, radio or NOAA Weather Radio and stay alert for warnings, which means there is immediate danger.
Know the signs of a tornado
Weather forecasting science is not perfect and some tornadoes do occur without a tornado warning. There is no substitute for staying alert to the sky. Besides an obviously visible tornado, here are some things to look and listen for:
In general, seek shelter in a basement, interior room or interior hallway on the lowest floor, away from windows.
In a house with a basement: Get in the basement or an interior room — away from windows — on the lowest floor. If you don't have time to get to a lower floor, go to a closet or small room with strong walls or an inside hallway. Wrap or cover yourself in some kind of protective covering (overcoats, sleeping bags, mattresses etc.). Get under some kind of sturdy protection (heavy table or work bench). Know where very heavy objects rest on the floor above (pianos, refrigerators, waterbeds, etc.) and avoid being beneath those areas.
In a house with no basement, a dorm, or an apartment: Avoid windows. Go to the lowest floor, small center room (such as a bathroom or closet), under a stairwell, or in an interior hallway with no windows. Crouch as low as possible to the floor, facing down, and cover your head with your hands of other protective coverings (such as overcoats in a closet). A bath tub may offer a shell of partial protection. Even in an interior room, you should cover yourself with some sort of thick padding (mattress, blankets, etc.), to protect against falling debris in case the roof and ceiling fall.
In an office building, hospital, or nursing home: Go directly to an enclosed, windowless area in the center of the building — away from glass — and on the lowest floor possible. Don't take shelter in halls that open to the south or west. Crouch down and cover your head. Interior stairwells are usually good places to take shelter, and if not crowded, allow you to get to a lower level quickly. Stay out of elevators; you could be trapped in them if the power is lost.
In a mobile home: Get out! Even if your home is tied down, you are probably safer outside, even if the only alternative is to seek shelter out in the open. Some communities require tornado shelters in mobile home parks. If your community has a tornado shelter, go there fast. If there is a sturdy permanent building within easy running distance, seek shelter there. Otherwise, lie flat on low ground away from your home, protecting your head. If possible, use open ground away from trees and cars, which can be blown onto you.
At school: Follow the drill! Go to the interior hall or room in an orderly way as you are told. Crouch low, head down, and protect the back of your head with your arms. Stay away from windows and large open rooms like gyms and auditoriums.
In a car or truck: Vehicles are extremely dangerous in a tornado. If the tornado is visible, far away, and the traffic is light, you may be able to drive out of its path by moving at right angles to the tornado. Otherwise, park the car as quickly and safely as possible — out of the traffic lanes. (It is safer to get the car out of mud later if necessary than to cause a crash.)
Get out and seek shelter in a sturdy building. If in the open country, run to low ground away from any cars (which may roll over on you). As a last resort, find a below-grade culvert. Lie flat and face-down, protecting the back of your head with your arms. Many people mistakenly think an overpass or bridge may provide safety, but those are among the worst places to seek shelter because they put you at greater risk of being killed or seriously injured by flying debris. Winds under an overpass can become channeled, blowing you or carrying you out from the underpass. If you do are unable to get out of your vehicle and must remain, put on your seat belt, lower yourself below window level, and cover your head with your hands or blanket.
In the open outdoors: If possible, seek shelter in a sturdy building. If not, lie flat and face-down on low ground, protecting the back of your head with your arms. Get as far away from trees and cars as you can. They may be blown onto you in a tornado.

Virtual L ®
Inside the bar, brown, green and orange dominate the color palette, coating the room in classic hues. With kitschy touches like the curvaceous orange couches, you might expect a no vacancy sign to loom large above the entrance. It seems only fitting that a bar aiming for throwback appeal would be housed in a building formerly owned by Montgomery Ward.
The drink menu is full of antique drinks like Sidecars, the Rob Roy and Manhattans (made with bitters), all prepared according to time-tested recipes. Some of the more rare cocktails, like Satan's Whiskers (made with gin, orange juice, both types of vermouth and bitters), may sound more fun to order than to drink, but the exhaustive list guarantees you find something old-fashioned that suits your fancy. The serving staff will even tell you the odd stories behind origins of these drinks if you ask. The rest of the drinks are divided into clear, brown and cordials categories.
The dining menu, with items like the ribeye au poivre and classic club sandwiches, was also created to exude a '50s feel. It also has a substantial number of dished best described as comfort food; items like beer-battered onion rings and half-pound hamburgers take the edge off a night of drinking. Those looking for something healthier can try a chicken and hummus pita.
Average cost: $10-$20
