Every time I check my messages on the SIM card that is on my router, I always get these Gamepad and Gameloft load deductions from subscriptions I never made. I'm really getting tired of this bs, it made me publish a post about it.
GAMELOFT Scam
Have you ever received the same message from 2479?
1/2 Hi! You have received your weekly Gameloft Club credits for just P20.
2/2 Choose your 3 games by clicking this link: http://———- Text GAMELOFT OFF to 2479 to unsubscribe.
You still have 13 game(s) left to download. Unsubscribing to Gameloft Club will forfeit your game credit(s).Text YES to continue.
Even after opting out for subscription, just a week later, I got subscribed again for another P20. Imagine, P20 weekly and you are on postpaid account, its a free mine for them. How about prepaid subscribers? Imagine just loading up exact amount you ought to use for a promo and poof, you'll get subscribed for the shit you don't need, wasting your money and time topping-up your mobile credits.
1/2 You have unsubscribed from Gameloft Club. You will no longer receive weekly game credits.
Back in the days of JAVA phones, Gameloft is one of the popular names on the mobile gaming scene, but games are so costly; people managed to find out ways of getting the games for free. Do you think what is happening now is a counter-play from Gameloft? But it is ethically acceptable?
GAMEPAD Scam
Here is another one, the GAMEPAD scam from 2151.
GAMEPAD: Click http://ptldynamic.gamepad.ph/0001Od to dload Party Dance game for free! You've been charged P5 for your 1 day access. Enjoy best games for
GAMEPAD: Click http://ptldynamic.gamepad.ph/0001Od to dload Party Dance game for free! You've been charged P5 for your 1 day access. Enjoy best games for only P5/day. Visit?www.gamepad.ph. Text STOP GD to 2151 to optout for free. Qs? Call 09176437770 or email@example.com, M-S, 6AM-12MN FREE INFO: Sumali na sa Gamepad's Play, Snap and WIN at manalo ng upto P5,000 worth of SM GC ngayong pasko! Visit http://bit.ly/2ftpCnM for more. Promo from Nov 1
It is the same with Gameloft scam, even after you text STOP GD to 2151, you will still be subscribed again after a few days. P5/day for one month for shit you don't care about? It could be small but do the math, it is worst than the Gameloft scam.
Why would people even care for these JAVA games when it is already the era of Android and iOS smartphones? You can easily download games from the Play Store and App Store without being charged out of your consent.
I have two theories:
1. GLOBE colluded with these sites so that they can earn from all their unknowing subscribers. It may look like it is just a small amount daily, but do the math with all the subscribers that is being victimized by this scheme, its a big number. GLOBE will just say "unsubscribe to it", but guess what, you'll be subscribed again in a few days and the process will repeat over and over again.
2. You get automatically subscribed by visiting sites with ads of these Gamepad and Gameloft trash stuff. It is phishing. It fetches your mobile number and have it subscribed, add it to their illegally and unethically acquired list of people to steal to (subscribers).
I am more inclined to believe that the latter is what's most likely happening here.
This GAMEPAD and GAMELOFT Scams must end
But even with tons of complaints directed to GLOBE through different mediums (social media, official community forum, blogs, customer service calls), still GLOBE won't do shit about it. Just the blanket "unsubscribe to it" escape statement.
If GLOBE really cares for its customers, they shouldn't let this happen to them. But then again, its money so look again to theory number 1.
Its just sad that people get robbed unknowingly of their prepaid or postpaid load balance and there's nothing we can do about it. Not unless someone big will step up and show care for the Filipino people regarding the matter. I really hope someone can initiate legal action towards this so this can stop.
How to protect yourself from the GAMEPAD scam
I just saw this post of /u/thisisnot9gag from the /r/Philippines subreddit where they are talking about the same subject, it might be worth a try.
I will be sending an email to gamepad.ph and see what will happen next. If this turns to be the solution to the Gamepad scam, only the Gameloft scam problem is left but its a step.
Still monitoring if I will ever be subscribed again to this Gamepad service, so far so good.Search terms: https://googleweblight com/?lite_url=https://www askhideki com/editorial/beware-of-the-gamepad-and-gameloft-scam/&ei=xiMMmL_p&lc=en-PH&s=1&m=429&host=www google com&f=1&gl=ph&ts=1557788295&sig=ACgcqhpTNeyH-CmFrvEz5I-Fsz

Suri Cruise LOVES Chocolate — A Little More Age Appropriate Than Those Gummies, Right?
Maybe it was a little taboo for five-year-old Suri Cruise to be eating suggestive gummy snacks — but not to worry, that phase is over, and she is giving in to her chocolate addiction!
We all know Suri is spoiled rotten by her A-list celebrity parents Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, but will they ever tell her no?
"She has a sweet tooth and is a major chocoholic," an insider tells In Touch.
We also hear Suri is allowed to munch on something chocolatey at every meal. She even uses chocolate milk in her breakfast cereal! Jeez!
On the contrary, Tom and Katie claim she does eat healthy. She has a good diet, but when she wants her fix, she gets it! But how does that work out when Katie admits she doesn't cook much, aside from baking cupcakes?
"She's really a special girl — strong and funny," the former Dawson's Creek star raves, "She's her own person. She has a great sense of humor." Yeah, and a great appetite! No wonder she's up 'till all hours of the morning…she's on a sugar high!
What about you, Hollymoms? Would you allow chocolate at every meal?
–Amber Belus

On November 3 and 4 Disneyland Resort played host to the taping of the 2012 Disney Parks Christmas Day Parade which will air on ABC Christmas Day. Mario Lopez was in Town Square as he did commentary for the parade as it strolled down Main Street USA.
Special celebrity appearances included Backstreet Boys, Ross Lynch, and Toby Mac. We've got more than 200 pictures to share and we will soon be posting video footage from the past two days. Enjoy this DAY 1 sneak peek!
The parade taping kicked off officially on Main Street at 10am with a military flyover.
Before the parade, though, Disney Channel's Bella Thorn and Olivia Holt taped some remote spots on Main Street and later in the Court of Angels.
Mario Lopez hosted this year's Disneyland parade. Meanwhile, Maria Menounos and Nick Cannon will handle Walt Disney World in Florida which tapes in a few weeks.
Military band heads down Main Street, I imagine there might be a message from the President (whoever it will be by Christmas Day).
Donald, Daisy, and Goofy were in the Soundsational segment of the parade, they were fully articulated for the taping even though they did not seem to have any dialogue.
Those who were particularly festive, adorable or festively adorable had higher chances of being taped to possibly be seen on television.
Mario did a few remotes on the street. You can see here the crowds behind him were prepped with Phineas and Ferb merchandise... a perfect lead in for the Phineas and Ferb segment which was the segway between Soundsational and A Christmas Fantasy Parade.
Where's my Perry?
My favorite part of the Christmas Parade! Wish this segment was this large in the actual parade.
Santa Claus actually made it to Disneyland this year.
Once the parade ended, it was time to tape... the beginning? TV magic in effect here as they taped the parade opening after the parade had actually happened.
Lightning and Mater help open up the parade, a perfect talking point for the new Cars Land expansion at Disney California Adventure.
The last part of taping on Saturday was the performance by Disney Channel's Ross Lynch.
- Check out our Day 2 coverage!
- Performance Videos - Backstreet Boys, Ross Lynch, Toby Mac

Happy Halloween!
Hope y'all stay and warm tonight and that no vampires get ya. Here's a commercial we worked on over the summer for Jameson that I think is fitting for today. If you watch American Horror Story on FX you might have already seen it.
Anyway, Happy Halloween! And Boo!

Witches' Puss (Pea, Kale, and Mozzarella Soup)
Finally a little fall in Texas! Just in time to make it really feel like Halloween weather.
This is just my favorite pea soup recipe with a bit of thawed frozen kale added in. It's the only way I can sneak kale into my husband so I'm betting it would work on kids too. If you have any youngin's going trick or treating on Monday, this would be a great way to get some food into them before the sugar orgy.
Pea Soup with Fresh Mozzarella and Kale
*You can adjust the thickness of the soup by leaving some of the stock out of the blender (use a strainer or spider to pull out all the veg), blending all the veg and cheese together first before adding all the rest of the stock to suit your preferences.
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 shallots, thinly sliced
2 green onions (can sub fresh basil, parsley, mint or whatever herb you have on hand)
4 cups low sodium chicken stock
2 (10 oz) packages frozen peas
1/2 cup chopped frozen kale, thawed, optional
1 large ball fresh mozzarella, broken into small pieces
Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add olive oil, allowing to warm though, then the shallots. Season with salt and pepper and saute for 5-6 minutes until softened. Add green onions and chicken stock, cover and bring to boil. When boiling, add the peas and kale and lower the heat, allowing to cook just until the peas achieve that bright green color - about 3 minutes. Remove from heat, and allow to cool for twenty minutes before blending. Discard the green onions and transfer the peas, shallots and kale using a slotted spoon to a blender. Add half of the chicken stock, and carefully blend (CAREFUL WHEN BLENDING HOT LIQUID - PULL OUT THE PLASTIC CENTER FROM THE TOP TO ALLOW STEAM TO ESCAPE AND COVER LOOSELY WITH A KITCHEN TOWEL OR ELSE YOU'LL WIND UP WITH PEAS SOUP ON YOUR CEILING. TRUST ME - I'VE DONE IT.) Add as much of the leftover stock as you'd like to reach the constistancy you're happy with, then add in half of the mozzarella pieces blending in to incorporate. When happy, put back in the large pot and cook over low heat, until warmed through. Serve with extra mozzarella pieces sprinkled on top.

Boo! Tres Leches Loco Cake.
I'm back! It's the tale end of my vacay and I took a break from it ALL - even my computer. I rode my horse every day and got outside and ate a lot of good food and road tripped a little. And now it's almost over. Scary, indeed.
Anyhow I have a lot to share with you - including some eleventh hour Halloween recipes. So buckle up and hang on!
First off I bring you Tres Leches Loco Cake. From the beloved Pioneer Woman who does wicked, magical things with a can of condensed milk.
What? This cake is ugly, you say? Well I never claimed to be a professional baker. But hell if I don't enjoy doing it!
Tres Leches Loco Cake
1 cup All-purpose Flour
1-1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/4 teaspoon Salt
5 whole Eggs
1 cup Sugar, Divided
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1/3 cup Milk
For pouring over after baking, whisk together the following:
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1 can (5 fluid oz) evaporated milk
1/4 cup Heavy Cream
2 teaspoons rum, or to taste
dash of maple flavoring (maple extract) or vanilla extract
For the Icing:
1 pint Heavy Cream, For Whipping and 3 Tablespoons Sugar OR Cool Whip
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 x 13 inch pan liberally until coated.
Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Separate eggs.
Beat egg yolks with 3/4 cup sugar on high speed until yolks are pale yellow. Stir in milk and vanilla. Pour egg yolk mixture over the flour mixture and stir very gently until combined.
Beat egg whites on high speed until soft peaks form. With the mixer on, pour in remaining 1/4 cup sugar and beat until egg whites are stiff but not dry.
Fold egg white mixture into the batter very gently until just combined. Pour into prepared pan and spread to even out the surface.
Bake for 35 to 45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Turn cake out onto a rimmed platter and allow to cool (I just cooled in the pan and served it from there - up to you.)
Combine condensed milk, evaporated milk, heavy cream, rum and extract in a small/medium bowl. When cake is cool, gently pierce the surface with a fork several times. Slowly drizzle all but about 1 cup of the milk mixture—try to get as much around the edges of the cake as you can. (USE THE LEFTOVER MIXTURE FOR SERVING OVER ICE CREAM - DELICIOUS! WILL KEEP UP TO 4 DAYS COVERED IN FRIDGE.)
Allow the cake to absorb the milk mixture for 30 minutes. To ice the cake, whip 1 pint heavy cream with 3 tablespoons of sugar until thick and spreadable. Or use Cool Whip (works better for transporting.)
Decorate, or not.

Ginger Soy Pork Chops A La Crock Pot
Don't let the ugly picture scare you away. This recipe is delish. And if the word crock pot scares you or seems a bit WT for your taste, you must have a lot more free time than I do. Please share your secret to mastering the universe in the comments section below.
Ginger Soy Pork Chops A La Crock Pot
* Serves 2, can double recipe for 4 servings.
2 thick bone-in pork chops
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1/4 cup white wine
1/2 cup soy sauce
4 smashed garlic cloves
1 inch chopped fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon orange zest, optional
chopped green onions, for garnish
First you need to whisk all the soaking ingredients together either in a large bowl or even in a ziploc until all blended together. Gently pour into your crock pot then add the chops turning them over in the liquid to be sure every bit has been blessed. Turn the crock on low heat and cook for 6-7 hours, turning the chops occasionally to be sure every side is getting equal liquid love (I had to stack the chops on top of one another because my pot is from the 70's - you won't have this problem if yours is newer/wider.)
Check for doneness with a knife before serving and DON'T let them cook for too long past this stage or they'll get tough (if mine are cooked I'll turn the pot off for an hour or so if we're not ready to eat then turn it back on 20 minutes before serving so they warm through again.)
Serve over rice with extra juice from the pot and green onions for garnish.

Filet Mignon with Red Wine and Porcini Mushroom Sauce. Hell to the Yeah-Uh.
I am in love with Porcini mushrooms despite the fact they smell like feet when you rehydrate them. Luckily they don't taste like feet. They taste like the most intense, flavorful mushroom you ever had, just without the use of psychotropics. If you don't like mushrooms well, we just don't have much in common, do we? Just kidding. But not really...
Perhaps the real reason I love Porcini mushrooms so much is that they just sit there in my spice drawer month after month waiting to become something tasty. They don't have to be cooked within a few days of buying them like fresh mushrooms do and they add SO much flavor to everything from risotto to side dishes to sauces. Basically they're like a super stealth secret weapon just laying low until called upon to make it rain in the kitchen. Which is just what they did last night.
I now have the answer to what my final meal would be if I ever end up on death row. These steaks, a baked potato, and roasted asparagus.
Filet Mignon with Red Wine and Porcini Mushroom Sauce
Serves 2. Recipe easily doubled.
2 filet mignon, let sit out of the fridge for 45 min, then liberally seasoned with salt and pepper
Olive oil, enough to just coat bottom of a small/medium rimmed skillet
1/2 cup finely chopped shallots
.75 oz dried Porcini mushrooms, reconstituted in 1 cup hot water for 30 minutes (reserve broth)
3/4 cup red wine
1 teaspoon Worchestershire
scant 1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
1/2 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon of the porcini broth
1 tablespoon butter
Preheat oven to 400.
As stated in ingredient list, reconstitute your dried Porcinis in hot water for half an hour. Onwards and upwards now.
Heat your small/medium skillet over medium high heat. Add just enough olive oil to create a thin layer on the bottom of the pan and let heat through for 1 minute (you want that sear when you add your cow to the pan, sorry Moo Moo.) Add the steaks and let brown on one side - not touching them - for about 3-4 minutes depending on thickness. Use tongs to see if they'll lift easily. If not, let them be another minute before trying again. If so, go ahead and carefully flip to the other side and cook another 3-4 minutes until you have a nice crust. Remove and transfer to a medium baking sheet sprayed with nonstick spray. Place in the oven for 6 minutes for medium rare (about 8 for medium and 4 for bloody.) Remove and tent with foil for 10 minutes before eating - which gives you just enough time to make the sauce!
For the sauce, add the shallots to the residual oil/fat in the skillet from frying the steaks and reduce heat slightly if they sizzle up too quickly/furiously. Season lightly with salt and pepper, then cook stirring often until translucent. About 3-4 minutes. Once translucent, add in the strained Porcinis (reserving broth), red wine, Worchestershire and rosemary. Bring to a boil then scrape up any browned bits from the bottom and stir occasionally, letting the mixture reduce by half - a few minutes or so. Once reduced, and while still boiling, stir in the cornstarch/Porcini broth mixture. It should only take 30 seconds or so at a boil for the mixture to thicken, then kill the heat and stir in the tablespoon butter.
Taste for salt/pepper - if it tastes 'okay' but not 'holy sh*t' then add a good pinch of salt, stir and taste again. A little salt is all that's keeping you from heaven at this point.
Serve the sauce spooned heavily over the rested steaks (again I love these steaks with good ole baked taters and roasted asparagus.)

Honey Pecan 'Fried' Chicken with Hot Sauce Butter
This is slap-yourself-in-the-face good. Hot, crunchy, spicy, sweet. Serve with extra hot sauce butter and honey on the side to dip the chicken in as well as any sides that are dip-able I.E. biscuits, sweet potato fries, phalanges, what have you. Or if you'd like to eat it as portrayed in my spectacular photo (kidding!) make the herbed goat cheese grits at the bottom of this post. And remember it's 'oven-fried' so pat on the back, buddy. Way to go.
Pecan Crusted Chicken with Hot Sauce Butter and Honey
Chicken and Marinade:
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
3/4 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon coriander
3 fat sprigs fresh thyme
4 garlic cloves, smashed
2 dried bay leaves
fresh cracked pepper
Chicken Coating:
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon chopped pecans
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon Panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Hot Sauce Butter:
4 tablespoons melted butter (I use salted) combined with 1 tablespoon Frank's Hot Sauce, or more to taste
1/4 cup or so, for drizzling over hot baked chicken
Add the buttermilk to a large ziploc along with the sea salt, smoked paprika, coriander, thyme, garlic and pepper. Mix well then dunk the chicken breasts in, seal, and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight. Remove from the fridge 45 minutes before cooking.
Preheat your oven to 375. Drain the chicken, pat dry and place in a rimmed glass or ceramic baking dish sprayed with nonstick spray. Lightly season with salt and pepper, then gently spoon the chicken coating (above) over the chicken trying to cover every exposed surface and applying in as even a layer as possible. Now you drizzle the hot sauce butter over the top using a spoon - use a zig zag motion and pour in a thin layer - you don't need to douse the chicken (though you could) - just give the coating enough moisture to achieve that 'bake-fried' texture.
Cover the dish with foil and cook on the center rack for 15 minutes. Uncover and cook another 15-18 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the chicken juices run clear when pierced with a knife (unless breasts are very thick - they should be cooked through by 25-28 minutes.) If at any point the topping begins to blacken, recover with foil. Let rest 5 minutes before serving, drizzling liberally with honey.
Herbed Goat Cheese Grits:
3 cups low sodium chicken stock
1 fat peeled garlic clove
3/4 cups quick grits
2 oz goat cheese
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
pinch fresh cracked black pepper
handful fresh minced basil
handful fresh minced flat leaf parsley
pinch fresh chopped rosemary
Add the chicken stock and garlic to a medium lidded pot and bring to a boil. Once boiling, add the grits and slowly stir in. Lower the heat to medium/low - just until the liquid is gently simmering and no longer boiling. Cook, stirring continuously until the grits have thickened to your liking - usually abotut 7-8 minutes for me. Kill the heat and stir in the goat cheese, parmesan, pepper and herbs. Serve right away, removing garlic clove if desired.

Grilled Fish Tacos with Ginger Basil Crema
These tacos were pretty good but to be honest I could eat this sour cream sauce on just about anything. Maybe even tofu. It's a shame I'm not a real country girl or I'd shoot the raccoons destroying my yard at night and try it on them. But for now, fish tacos will do.
Grilled Fish Tacos with Ginger Crema Sauce
Serves 5.
1 lime, zest and juice
1/4 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon coriander
2 teaspoons ancho chili powder
handful chopped basil
1/2 teaspoon fresh rosemary leaves
1/2 tablespoon sea salt
2 smashed garlic cloves
1 jalapeño (deveined and seeded for less heat) roughly chopped
1 1/2 pounds mahi mahi
Extra limes for squeezing over after grilling
Plenty of tortillas, wrapped in foil and warmed in a low oven
Ginger Basil Crema, recipe follows
1 1/2 cups fresh Pico De Gallo (Chop a fresh tomato, jalapeno, small white onion, and giant handful fresh cilantro. Squeeze over the juice of 1 lime, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and a minced garlic clove if desired.)
Add the marinade ingredients - the lime juice, zest and lime carcass through the jalapeno to a large ziploc and squish around to make sure everything's well blended. Add in the mahi mahi, seal and refrigerate for 4 hours. Remove from the fridge 30 minutes before grilling.
Set the heat to medium/high heat (around 400) and oil the grates. Remove the fish from the marinade shaking off any excess herbs or marinade bits and gently pat dry. Season with a little more salt and pepper and add to the grill - skin side down. Cook for about 10-12 minutes or until the fish flakes easily when probed with a fork. Let rest for 5 minutes, then slide a spatula between the skin and flesh to get the flesh away from it (no skin in my tacos, please.) Squeeze a lime wedge or 2 over the cooked fish, taste for salt/pepper adding more if necessary.
Serve in warm tortillas with pico de gallo and ginger basil crema, recipe follows.
Crema Sauce:
1/3 cup light sour cream
2 tablespoons light mayo
1/4 teaspoon grated fresh ginger, or more to taste
handful chopped, fresh basil
zest of half a lime
tiny pinch salt and pepper

Cinnamon Butter Cookies
Another one from Martha's "Cookies" Book, actually called Buttered Rum Meltaways. Someone quite close to me went on a psychotic baking spree during the holidays last year, froze these (unbaked) in logs wrapped in parchment wrapped in ziplocs, recently found them again in her freezer, baked them off and found them good as new... nine months later.
I won't mention her by name. She'd be embarrassed. It would be awkward. And so on. That said if you were to do such a thing as her it helps to add some edible glitter to the powdered sugar you roll them in to make them feel more 'now.'
Buttered Rum Meltaways (Cinnamon Butter Cookies, because that's what they taste like to me)
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
3/4 teaspoon coarse salt
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup dark rum
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
good pinch edible glitter, available at baking supply stores or online, to toss with remaining powdered sugar
Whisk flour, cornstarch, spices, and salt in a bowl. Put butter and 1/3 cup powdered sugar into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium speed until pale and fluffy. Mix in rum and vanilla. Reduce speed to low, and gradually mix in flour mixture.
Divide dough in half. Place each on a piece of parchment paper; shape dough into logs. Fold parchment over dough; using a ruler, roll and press into a 1 1/4-inch log. Wrap in parchment. Chill in freezer 30 minutes (up to 1 month).
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Unwrap logs. Cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds; space 1 inch apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake until just golden, about 15 minutes. Transfer cookies to wire racks; let cool 10 minutes. Gently toss warm cookies with remaining 2/3 cup sugar and edible glitter (optional) in a resealable plastic bag. Cookies can be refrigerated in airtight containers up to 2 weeks (or frozen, unbaked and in logs, if you're Alisa Sengel Wixom for up to 9 months if triple wrapped in parchment and two ziplocs, prior to slicing, baking, and tossing in remaining sugar.) ;)

Gardenia Corsage
A gardenia corsage boasts a large, perfect bloom grown on a plant. The petals must be handled carefully, because the oils from your fingers can brown them. Keep the corsage cooled in a refrigerator (towards the front - not the back which is usually colder). It is wise to dip a paper towel in water, squeeze it out, and lay gently over the flower until the corsage is worn.

Shallots are smoother and sweeter than Onions or Garlic, and they act as a catalyst in recipes, subtly enhancing other flavors. If Onions are at all upsetting to your stomach, you'll find Shallots much easier to digest and less sharp smelling, both raw and cooked. Shallots are easy to grow, and each set will produce a whole cluster of bulbs.
'Holland Red' delivers the mellow, quintessential Shallot flavor in a fat, round bulb. It's an extraordinarily productive variety and an excellent keeper. The skin is coppery red and peels easily, while the flesh is a beautiful reddish purple.
Shipped as 1 lb of sets (about 8–10 sets per pound). For more information on growing and care, click on Growing Guide.
A street address is required for delivery. We cannot ship to post office box.
The size of the plants we ship has been selected to reduce the shock of transplanting. For some, this means a large, bareroot crown. Others cannot travel bareroot or transplant best if grown in containers. We ship these perennials and annuals in 1 pint pots, except as noted. We must point out that many perennials will not bloom the first year after planting, but will the following year, amply rewarding your patience. We ship bulbs as dormant, bare bulbs, sometimes with some wood shavings or moss. Shrubs, Roses, vines, and other woody plants may be shipped bareroot or in pots. The size of the pot is noted in the quick facts for each item.
We ship our bulbs and plants at the right time for planting in your area, except as noted, with orders dispatched on a first-come, first-served basis by climate zone. Estimated dates for shipping are indicated in the Shipping Details box for each item. Please refer to the Shipping Details box to determine the earliest shipping time. Unless you specify otherwise, fertilizers, tools, and other non-plant items are shipped with your plants or bulbs. Please supply a street address for delivery. Kindly contact us with two weeks notice, if you'll be away at expected time of delivery.
We guarantee to ship plants that are in prime condition for growing. If your order is damaged or fails to meet your expectations, we will cheerfully replace or refund it. Please contact our Customer Service Department at 1-800-503-9624 or email us at [email protected]. Please include your order number or customer number when contacting us.

Shallots are a delicious addition to many dishes, including soups and salads. They also enhance the flavor of meats, particularly beef. For any dish in which you would use onions, shallots can be substituted to provide a subtler, more nuanced onion-like flavor.
UPON RECEIPT: If you can't plant immediately, store shallots in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area.
PREPARING THE SOIL: In early spring when the ground is suitable for planting, begin by preparing your soil. Shallots are best grown in a fertile and well-balanced soil. Organic gardeners should work in rich, finished compost. Spread lime if your soil is too acidic. If you use commercial fertilizer (we recommend 10-20-10), make trenches 3in deep, distribute 1/2 cup of fertilizer per 10 linear feet of row and cover with 2in of soil.
HOW TO PLANT: Plant the shallots with the root side down, about 6in apart. The tops of the shallots should be about 1in below the soil. Shallots are shallow-rooted plants, and proper watering is important -- don't overwater and cause them to rot, but don't let them wilt for lack of moisture, either.
FERTILIZING: Shallots require a lot of nitrogen. Give plants a supplemental feeding of liquid fish emulsion or other fertilizer about 3 weeks after planting; continue to fertilize every 3-4 weeks thereafter. Stop feeding once the necks start feeling soft, about 4 weeks before harvest. If you use a dry granular fertilizer, water it in well.
WATERING: Keep the soil evenly moist during the growing season.
WEED CONTROL: It is important to control weeds around your plants. Start handweeding or hoeing as soon as weeds begin to appear. Be careful not to damage the bulbs. A light organic mulch helps control weeds and preserve moisture. Pull the mulch back when the plants are beginning to bulb up.
HARVESTING: Shallots should be harvested when most of the foliage dries and falls over. They can stay in the soil as long as temperatures remain below 85-90 degrees F. Once harvested, shallots should be placed in a well-ventilated area in the shade (such as a garage) for 2-3 weeks until the foliage dries completely. Then cut off the tops about 1in above the bulb. Store shallots spread out in a thin layer or in mesh bags in a cool (40-50°F), dry place with good air circulation.

If your family meets Federal Guidelines for poverty and you wish to be considered for those five scholarships, you should check the appropriate Financial Need box on the Application Form.
Q: What kind of proof do I need to submit if I want to be considered for the five scholarships that consider extreme financial hardship along with other criteria?
A: Although many families with disabilities experience financial hardship, the priority for five scholarships will be those students whose families live in poverty. To be considered for one of these five scholarships, your family must meet Federal Guidelines for poverty. These guidelines for a family of your size can be found at the following website: http://aspe.hhs.gov/poverty/12poverty.shtml. You do not need to submit proof when you submit your scholarship application. If you are a semi-finalist for one of these Financial Need scholarships, we will contact you to request some type of proof of your family's poverty level. This could be an Income Tax return or a letter showing that your family is receiving public assistance (for example, SSI, Medicaid, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANFF), CalWorks, Food Stamps or WIC). This information will be kept confidential and will not be disclosed to anyone outside of the scholarship review committee.
Q: In addition to having a parent with a disability, I also have a disability. Am I eligible for this scholarship?
Q: I previously applied for a scholarship from Through the Looking Glass, but was not selected. Can I apply again?
A: Yes, as long as you meet the eligibility requirements. Your application must be current – that is, you must use all the current 2013 application forms. Also, although we will accept previously submitted essays, we encourage everyone to submit original essays.
Q: If a parent with a disability is deceased, is the student eligible for this scholarship? If I no longer live with my parent with a disability, am I still eligible for this scholarship?
A: Yes, especially if your parent was a significant part of your childhood and growing up experiences.
Q: I am attending or will be attending college or university abroad - am I still eligible for this scholarship?
A: Only if you are attending this college or university through a study abroad program that is sponsored by a U.S. college or university.
Q: I am attending or will be attending a two-year college, not a four-year college - am I still eligible for this scholarship?
A: Yes, if you are pursuing an AA or AS degree.
Q: I am attending or will be attending a technical or vocational school - am I still eligible for this scholarship?
A: Yes, if you are enrolled in an accredited technical or vocational school in 2013, and pursuing a certificate or license.
Q: What are my chances for getting a scholarship?
A: Each year, we receive several hundred scholarship applications. Many of these are very deserving of this award, but we only have 15 scholarships to offer each year. The criteria for all 15 scholarships include academic performance, community activities and service, a letter of recommendation and an essay; for five of the 15 scholarships, we also consider those whose families are living in poverty in addition to the other criteria. We are not only looking for those students who have already demonstrated high achievement, but also those students who demonstrate high potential. In some cases, a student's essay and personal situation can give considerable weight to their scholarship chances.
Q: What are you looking for in the scholarship essays?
A: We are looking for your story. We are interested in the real-life experiences and honest perspectives of students who have one or both parents with a disability. How did having a parent with a disability impact your life? No two people will have the same perspectives or experiences. There is no right answer to this. Just tell us your story. Also, please make sure you proofread your essay.
Q: What format should the essay be in?
A: Your application must include a paper copy of your essay. All essays must be typed, double-spaced and a maximum of three pages (approximately 750 words). We prefer that your essay have 12 point Times New Roman font and have 1 inch margins all around. Include your full name at the beginning of the essay. Do not include your address, phone number or other personal contact information on the essay.
Q: How do I email my essay to you?
Q: Can you offer any suggestions to make my application stronger?
Q: What kind of disability does my parent need to have in order for me to be eligible for a scholarship?
A: These scholarships are open to anyone who has a parent with a disability or medical condition. The specific type of disability or condition includes a wide range of physical, mental, hearing, learning, vision, systemic or intellectual conditions, or combinations of these. The disability or medical condition should be more than a brief or temporary situation (i.e., not a broken leg that lasts a few weeks).
Q: My parent does not consider himself/herself to have a disability. Our family never refers to my mother (or father) as having a disability. Am I still eligible to apply for this scholarship?
A: We choose not to define "disability." It could be one of a wide variety of conditions. Please see our explanation of "parents with disabilities"
Q: Do I have to fill out the optional survey?
A: No. Whether or not you fill out the survey will not affect your scholarship chances. The Scholarship Review Committee will not even see the surveys. However, we would like to ask all those applying for scholarships to voluntarily fill out the survey. The information on these surveys will help give others a better picture of those of us who have parents with disabilities. It may also help develop new resources and legislation to improve the lives of families with disabilities. Please remember, all this information is confidential and will not be shared with anyone outside of the research team at Through the Looking Glass.
Q: Why should I fill out the survey?
A: The survey is optional. The reason for the survey and the research study is that there is very little information about anyone who has a parent with a disability or medical condition. This research study has been reviewed and approved by TLG's Institutional Review Board. We're hoping that the information you provide will help us get a better picture of what it's like to have a parent with a disability. But, remember that the answers you give are confidential and your name will never be connected to the research study.
Q: When is the deadline to complete the survey?
A: The deadline for completing the survey is May 6, 2013. When we receive your application packet with all the materials and after you've emailed us your essay as well, we will send you an email to let you know that your application is complete. If for some reason you don't have an email address, let us know and we will contact you by phone. In the email, we will also give you a link to the online survey. You can complete the survey any time until May 6, 2013. Please note, the scholarship application needs to be postmarked by March 11, 2013 – but you have additional time, until May 6, 2013 to complete the survey.
Q: Why do I have to sign a consent form?
A: If you win one of our scholarships, we will publicize your name and essay. By applying for the scholarship, you are agreeing to allow us to do this. You must sign the consent form to be considered for a scholarship. If you are under age 18, your parent must sign the form. The consent form also asks you to consider whether or not you will fill out our optional research survey. The information on these surveys is confidential, and will not be shared with anyone outside of the project researchers. The Scholarship Reviewers will not see the information on the surveys. If you consent to fill out the survey, but later decide you don't want to do it, you have that option. You can also skip over any questions on the survey by answering "Prefer not to answer."
Q: What happens to the information I filled out in the application or on the survey? How can I find out about this research?
A: The research team at Through the Looking Glass will summarize the findings from their study surveys in a report and at least one article. No scholarship applicant's name or other identifying information will ever be included in these research publications. This is an eight year project, so the report and the articles won't be completed until 2016 or later. However, we will let people know how they can get a copy of the report or article on our website.
Q: When will I find out whether or not I won a scholarship?
A: We will announce the winners in Fall 2013. Depending on the number of applications, this will be approximately November 1, 2013. The winners will be contacted directly, and the results announced on our website. Please do not have your parent or teacher contact us to ask about the status of your application. We will email you directly when we receive your completed application. If you have any questions, either see our website information or contact us yourself.
Q: Will scholarships be offered again in future years?
A: Through the Looking Glass has received a federal grant from the National Institute on Disability Research and Rehabilitation, U.S. Department of Education to provide 15 scholarships a year through 2016. We may be able to offer additional scholarships if we receive additional donations. We encourage anyone who wants to contribute to this scholarship program to make a donation. Individual donors can make a difference whether or not we can offer more scholarships. Please see our Donations page for more information.
Q: Do you know of any scholarships for students who are already in college?
A: We have a couple suggestions:

by Pádraig Ó Duirnín
Writing just over a century ago in March 1914, James Connolly, with a canny farsightedness, predicted that the partition of Ireland would lead to a 'carnival of reaction both North and South, would set back the wheels of progress, and would destroy the oncoming unity of the Irish Labour movement and paralyse all advanced movements while it endured'.[1] The primary determinant of partition was not the Protestant Unionist population in North-East Ulster, largely reactionary as it might have been, but the over-arching role of British Imperialism in Ireland. The Anglo-Irish Treaty which institutionalised partition was agreed upon in London, and the British negotiating party faced by the representatives of the incipient Free State included Lloyd George, Austen Chamberlain, and Winston Churchill, not Carson or Craigavon.
Connolly's 'carnival of reaction' of course came to pass, with the establishment of a deeply conservative, ultra-Catholic agrarian state in the South, the ideological remnants of which have yet to be fully overcome, and a sectarian 'Protestant Parliament for a Protestant people' in the North. The forward march of Irish Labour was well and truly halted. The violent suppression of the Civil Rights movement amongst the Catholic Nationalist community in the Northern six counties led into the conflict euphemistically known as 'the Troubles' between 1969 and 1998. For thirty years, the British state did not hesitate to deploy a force of over 20,000 troops to streets which were supposedly as 'British' as Birmingham or Liverpool.
In the 1970s and early 1980s, amidst the height of the conflict, [Provisional] Sínn Féin adopted a political programme known as 'Éire Nua' (New Ireland), which called for a 'federal, democratic socialist republic based on the Proclamation of 1916'. The federal system envisaged would include the establishment of four Parliaments based upon the traditional provinces of Ireland, including Ulster, but on a nine-county basis (also including Donegal, Cavan, and Monaghan, then and now part of the South). Various political criticisms can be made of Éire Nua – in an article for The Blanket written in 2002, Seaghán Ó Murchú bluntly described it as a document deeply coloured by corporatist-Christian socialist thinking, a document 'not red enough for the Marxists, certainly green enough for the left, but too nationalistic for the peaceniks'.[2] Nonetheless, it represented a relatively progressive, reasonably coherent Republican political alternative not just to partition but to existing economic doctrine North and South of the border, the likes of which have not been seen since.
Éire Nua was eventually supplanted as the Southern-based leadership of Sínn Féin was replaced by the Northern-based group around Gerry Adams in the early 1980s, a leadership for which 'the military domination of the republican strategy drowned out the calls for political alternatives in a post-British island-wide government'.[3] It can be argued that the present position of Sínn Féin as the administrators of a reinforced, albeit slightly more generous partition settlement is in part due to the lack of a coherent, developed political programme within the Republican movement once the military avenue had reached inevitable exhaustion.
Sínn Féin and the Good Friday Agreement
The Good Friday Agreement (GFA) brought an end to a conflict which had undoubtedly run its course, but nonetheless, neither the agreement nor Sínn Féin's policy approach since have succeeded in addressing the fundamentals of the issue of partition; the GFA was an attempt to deal with what is seen as an inter-communal problem in the North, rather than a matter between the British state and the Irish people as a whole. With the GFA, the political concession gained by Sínn Féin was recognition by Westminster that their political position in the North could become that of state-legitimated representatives of a particular community in the Stormont Assembly. Given the nature of enforced coalitions within the Stormont system, –which exist in order to prevent a return to the sectarian one-party state which existed before 1972 – Sínn Féin in the six counties, like the SDLP, UUP, and DUP, cannot be voted out of power, therefore operates politically with two core purposes:
a) Seeking dominance of the Nationalist 'side' against their primary community rivals, the SDLP. This goal was accomplished at the 2003 Assembly elections and was maintained after restoration of Stormont in 2007. Sínn Féin have finished second to the DUP at every Northern election since.
b) the demographic game, with the eventual expectation that the Nationalist 'side' will one-day outnumber the Unionist, at which point a border poll can be called with the agreement of the Northern Ireland Office at Westminster, reuniting Ireland through the achievement of a particular majority in that part of the country which remained under British control in 1922. The British Northern Ireland Secretary still maintains the right to over-ride the result of any poll.
Whilst the SDLP are in decline as a political force, having lost over 80,000 votes in the North since 1998 (indeed, British intelligence described them as an 'aging party' as early as 1983)[4], of late an electoral challenge has begun to arise at a local level, with the election of 'dissident'-aligned Republicans such as Gary Donnelly in Derry, and more conventional left-type groups such as People Before Profit in Belfast, amongst several other independent Republican and/or Socialist candidates. Lack of progress after sixteen years of the GFA over resolving the issue of partition has gone hand in hand with Sínn Féin's administration of the Tory/Lib Dem Coalition's cuts in the North, whilst it postures as the 'anti-austerity' option south of the border.
The 1916 Societies and 'One Ireland, One Vote'
In recent years, Republicans in Tyrone frustrated at these developments and in the political direction of Sínn Féin have formed a group known as the '1916 Societies' – grassroots, autonomous local branches of which now exist across Ireland, and to which the Scotland-based James Connolly Society are now also affiliated. Rather than looking towards short-term electoralism, the Societies have worked on in areas such as anti-eviction campaigns, providing direct assistance to some of the nearly 200,000 families in the twenty-six counties threated with foreclosure since the Irish economic crisis, as well as in campaigns against internment and sectarian parades in the North. Whilst the Societies have arguably not entirely broken free of the under politically developed communalism rife in the North, (as critiques from the Anarchist Workers' Solidarity Movement suggest)[5], they have nonetheless moved a Republican perspective back towards a decommunalised understanding of partition, one in which the relationship between the Irish people as a whole and British imperialism is the key dynamic.
At present, and particularly important in the context of the Scottish independence referendum on the 18th September, the Societies have launched a campaign calling for 'One Ireland, One Vote'. 'One Ireland, One Vote' is of interest particularly because it represents a break from the Westminster-approved politics of Good Friday, in that it does not accept partition as a fait accompli, but also from the blinkered militarism which led the Republican movement into that corner: the all-Ireland referendum it calls for is fundamentally a citizens' initiative. Whilst a new political programme for a united post-partition Ireland approaching the depth of 'Éire Nua' does not yet appear to be on the Societies' agenda, the 'One Ireland, One Vote' campaign provides fruitful circumstances for the development of such a programme, as the upcoming Scottish referendum has produced a variety of such visions on the other side of the Irish Sea. Even if the prospect of immediate success is somewhat limited, the framework the campaign presents should nonetheless be given attention by Republicans and Socialists interested in moving towards an Ireland which can overcome both the geographical and social consequences of the Anglo-Irish Treaty.

Planning is focused on the future. Planning balances socio-economic forces, natural resources, and public input to promote sound and orderly development in Provo. Planning ensures that the decisions we make today will result in a viable and healthy future for our city. If you want information about starting a construction project in Provo, please visit our Build in Provo page. For general planning questions, please call 801-852-6419.
Beginning in January or February of 2016, the Provo Municipal Council began discussions of how the Vision 2030 Plan and the General Plan should best be melded into one guiding document for policy direction within the City. It was determined that the goals and objectives contained within Chapter One of the General Plan would be combined with the goals and objectives from the Vision 2030 Plan and that the combination of these goals and objectives would become Chapter One of the updated General Plan. This updated Chapter One would be referred to as Vision 2050 as the goals and objectives have been amended to consider 30 years of additional growth within the City.
The updated Provo City Vision 2050 document is the fruit of that effort and purpose; to combine the General Plan and Vision 2030 into one, unified document.

Provo's planning division has been tasked with developing neighborhood level plans throughout the city. The Vision 2030 process identified neighborhood planning as a key objective within Section 2: Land Use and Growth.
Objective 2.1.1 Identify exceptional areas that would benefit from area specific master plans, where the city would conduct a detailed land-use analysis. The objective is for a plan for every neighborhood.
Neighborhood Plans provide an opportunity for neighborhood residents and other stakeholders to participate with planning staff in envisioning the future. Provo's many neighborhoods vary greatly in terms of age, visual character, demographic makeup and stability. The neighborhood planning process assesses each neighborhood's characteristics, gleaning key insights from residents about strengths and weaknesses as well as desires for the future. Then together, planning staff and neighborhood stakeholders refine a vision for and a path to the future. Planning staff then applies their expertise and experience in drafting a plan to guide each neighborhood into this envisioned future.

A cowlick tends to make styling your hair difficult, especially when it comes to having a full fringe! Either your hair splits down the middle within minutes of styling it or you end up sporting side sweep bangs, either way its frustrating! Discover how these simple blow drying tricks will help your wonky bangs cooperate!
HOT TIP: Why should you use a styling comb instead of a paddle brush? When you have stubborn growth patterns, its important to get close to the scalp. Using a comb allows you to get as close to the scalp as possible, making controlling the cowlick or erratic growth patterns easier.
HOT TIP: Using the fine teeth section of the comb will allow for more compression! Be sure to hold the blow dryer on the body to keep the elbow down for better control and comfort..
HOT TIP: While blow drying your bangs, pull all of your hair into a ponytail, leaving out the bang area only. This will give you more control over your blow dry.
Now that you've learned how to control a cowlick when you have a full fringe, learn how to flat iron your bangs without leaving a crease.

(NSFW) VIDEO: Kate Upton gets body painted for 2013 Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue
Kate Upton shows painted body for cover of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition.
Kate Upton is never shy when it comes to showing off her body, and this time her latest modeling adventure is getting her body painted for the cover of Sport Illustrated's swimsuit issue.
In this NSFW video Kate Upton bares her body to have it spray painted. During the video she discusses her experiences with spray paint.
The best quote of this entire video is when she says, "I definitely feel naked, because I am." You're absolutely correct, Ms. Upton.
