Entertainment fans have been queuing around the block to get into the 2014 San Diego Comic-Con and some of the social chatter surrounding the event has been brilliant.
Fans with four-day passes to the sold-out pop-culture spectacular gained early admission to the showroom floor Wednesday night, where they were the first to see a 10-foot-tall Transformer, a Lego Spider-Man and a life-sized, road-ready Hot Wheels car inspired by Darth Vader - click here to see some of the cool movie posters that have been revealed at Comic-Con too.
It has been said that some planned to wait in line overnight for a chance to attend the most popular film and TV presentations, which began this morning.
Comic-Con, which one attendee Sara Brushaber described as "the nerd hub of the world," continues until Sunday.
Reports are coming in that fans are also queuing up inside the convention centre just to buy limited-edition toys that are released just for the festival.
While some fans are there for toys, others for the talks - one ten-year conventioneer began waiting in line at 7am Wednesday for the DreamWorks Animation panel on Thursday featuring Benedict Cumberbatch - others are simply there so post some cool videos.

THE START of last night's Republican debate seemed to promise a whack-a-mole evening for the GOP's latest front-runner, Newt "Not-a-lobbyist" Gingrich.
Two of his opponents for the party nomination introduced themselves by saying how long they've been married: Rick Perry, 29 years of "wedded bliss" to his Anita; Jon Huntsman, 28 years just last week to his Mary Kaye.
Newt's a three-time groom; nice of Perry and Huntsman to remind the party's Christian conservative base.
But that was about the only slap at Gingrich.

To the Editor:—
With one exception I heartily agree with Dr. Herman F. Meyer in his letter on page 274 of The Journal, Sept. 18, 1954, under the caption "Misused Expressions." Dr. Meyer objects to the terms "bluish gray" or "reddish brown." Dr. Meyer is almost certainly aware of the facts that pure colors are rare, that color can be accurately described only on the basis of spectrum absorption, and that many persons have defective color vision. Most colors are mixtures of primary colors, and shades of color are of infinite variety. Gray is a mixture of white and black. If a light or medium gray also has enough blue in it to be noticeable the shade would most certainly be bluish gray. "Bluish" is defined by Webster as "somewhat blue." If the blue were very noticeable the term blue-gray would be preferable, bluish suggesting a fainter degree of blue

Several groups, ranging from the Cat Fanciers' Association to the American Kennel Club, are urging the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to overturn an Amarillo federal court judgment ordering the American Quarter Horse Association to register cloned horses and their offspring.
In July, an Amarillo federal jury determined an AQHA committee and top AQHA officials violated state and federal antitrust laws by conspiring to bar cloned horses from its horse registry. Jurors, however, awarded no damages to rancher Jason Abraham and Gregg Veneklasen, two AQHA members who sought to register their cloned horses.
In 2012, Abraham and Veneklasen sued the 280,000-member organization, seeking to overturn its registration ban on cloned horses.
On Aug. 22, U.S. District Judge Mary Lou Robinson issued a final judgment, ordering the association to immediately begin registering clones. The judge later granted the AQHA a temporary stay from the judgment while the association appealed its case to the New Orleans court.
On Thursday, the American Kennel Club, the American Morgan Horse Association, the American Paint Horse Association, the Appaloosa Horse Club, the Arabian Horse Association, The Cat Fanciers' Association Inc., the Jockey Club, the Pinto Horse Association and the U.S. Trotting Association filed a friend-of-the-court brief supporting the AQHA's appeal filed Dec. 28.
"Private associations like the AQHA and the Amici Curiae (the groups) possess a judicially-recognized right to adopt, administer, interpret and enforce their own rules without judicial interference," the brief states. "Here, by requiring the AQHA to adopt specifically-worded amendments to 11 of its rules, the district court impermissibly intruded on the AQHA's rule-making powers in violation of long-standing precedent."
In a statement Friday, the AQHA said it looks forward to having another day in court when the appeals court reviews the case.
"We are extremely pleased with the brief and the excellent work of our legal team, and we look forward to presenting our case to the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals," the association said in a message to its members on its website. "We will continue to keep you and the membership updated during the appellate process. Again, thank you for all of your messages supporting AQHA's efforts to have the judgment reversed."
Nancy Stone, one of the plaintiffs' attorneys, said Friday she expects to win the case on appeal.
"We expected it. We're not surprised and it doesn't change our opinion," she said Friday. "It doesn't change our belief that we will continue to prevail."
No date has been set for a hearing before the appeals court.

Previewing new books in 2013, via The Millions
Once again, The Millions, an online literary magazine, has brightened up early January with a giant preview of books due to be published this year. Millions contributors are offering thumbnail previews of 79 books due out this year.
Caveat lector: Despite The Millions' cheeky claim that this lovely list "is the only 2013 book preview you will ever need," it consists mostly of quality literary fiction, with only a few nonfiction and genre writing titles included. So, for example, you won't see anything about new books this year from Ian Tregillia, Charlaine Harris and Elizabeth Bear. »Read Full Blog Post(4)
Alterra moving into Third Ward Caffe space, planning 'different experience'
Alterra Coffee Roasters will beef up its downtown presence in midsummer when it takes over the space recently vacated by Third Ward Caffe. Because the storefront on E. St. Paul Ave. is smaller than Alterra's typical cafe, the coffee company is looking at atypical options for the space.
Alterra has 11 other cafes around the Milwaukee area, including one less than a half-mile away, across the Milwaukee River from the Third Ward. A twelfth is due to open in March in Madison, Alterra's first cafe outside the metro area; the thirteenth is due in summer also, at N. 68th and W. Wells streets in Wauwatosa. »Read Full Blog Post

Funding Unsuccessful
This project's funding goal was not reached on March 17, 2013.
A smart irrigation system powered by your smartphone or tablet. Preorder now at www.ordergreenbox.com
This project's funding goal was not reached on March 17, 2013.
Greenbox is a revolutionary smartphone-controlled irrigation system. It includes a physical controller unit, a free iOS app, and a supporting backend in the cloud (also free for Kickstarter backers). The controller is compatible with standard 24VAC in-line solenoid valves, so it can easily be installed using existing irrigation infrastructure.
There are a few awesome updates that are not mentioned in the video:
A few things happened that drove us to create Greenbox:
Greenbox allows you to wirelessly adjust your irrigation controller from the comfort of your home. No more need to go out in the rain, cold, or blazing summer heat to make adjustments to your watering programs.
Greenbox is built with Bluetooth Smart wireless communication. This is the technology that Apple decided to adopt across all of its computing products (iPhone, iPad, iPod, Mac). The free app will be compatible with the following devices:
The technology also exists in an increasing number of Android models. We plan to provide a solution for these users as well following the product launch.
Greenbox has a built-in microcontroller and flash memory that stores the watering programs, so your mobile device doesn't need to be around for Greenbox to work. It also has a backup battery for power outages, so the time and stored programs aren't lost (note: like all AC irrigation controllers, Greenbox will not be able to water during power outages).
Greenbox is by far the easiest irrigation controller to program. This is thanks to its friendly, elegant design and its simple, intuitive flow. Anyone who's ever programmed a traditional controller can tell you what a nightmare it is trying to figure out what each knob, button, and on-screen indicator means. Using a sleek smartphone/tablet app instead to do this is light-years ahead of the old generation controllers.
Greenbox gives you all the advantages of a traditional controller, but without the frustrating experience of programming one. Set up unique programs for each station in your system, and Greenbox will handle the rest.
The built-in 7-day local weather forecast allows you to adjust your watering programs in order to reduce water waste, and with constant connectivity to an online weather service, the Greenbox Cloud sends you notifications about weather events that require adjustments in your watering program.
The Greenbox Cloud, which will be available for free only to Kickstarter backers, also saves your watering programs and preferences. You can log into your user from any compatible device. Throughout the year we plan to introduce additional features related to the backend, such as watering recommendations and comparing your watering programs to those of other homes in your area (using data approved by users for sharing).
The app even shows you the number of watering hours you've saved since installing Greenbox. This helps you keep track of how much money you're saving, and how much you're helping the environment.
Push notifications can be received for system events, such as rain forecasts, reminders for stations that haven't been watered recently, or alerts about excessive manual watering.
We built Greenbox with a long-term vision, and we intend to continue expanding the app's functionality. This vision includes:
With its massive endorsement from Apple, Bluetooth Smart is a revolutionary communications technology that's positioned to take the home automation market by storm. Bluetooth Smart is a part of the Bluetooth 4.0 protocol which is being adopted globally by almost all handset manufacturers. We decided that Bluetooth Smart is the right solution for Greenbox, based on its speed, seamless in-app connectivity, and reliability.
We've already invested a considerable amount of money in bringing Greenbox this far, and we need your support to get it across the finish line.
Need help figuring out if Greenbox is right for your yard? Contact us and we'll be happy to assist you.
This video shows a demo of a Greenbox prototype connected to a simulated home sprinkler system.
Backers are responsible for any customs and VAT fees that may apply
Greenbox is mostly finished and already functioning perfectly. We need to add some features to the app, complete the backend so it's scalable, and transfer the device to mass production. There are still certain risks related to this project, as any major project like it:
1. Tooling: The main tooling relevant to Greenbox would be the plastic injection mold, the PCB tooling, and test fixtures required for production. We've dealt with dozens of such projects throughout our careers, so we know how to manage these and push our suppliers to a timely completion while maintaining high quality.
2. Schedule: We already have detailed plans for development and fulfillment and took the required amount of time into account, as well as extra time for unexpected delays that may arise. We have considered the lead times for components and manufacturing. If funded, completing the device's transfer to production and the app will be our #1 priority. We will also be sure to place orders for the components immediately upon successful completion of this Kickstarter.
3. Development: Uzi, our co-founder and CEO, has been developing software and hardware products for 20 years. He's led the development of life-support medical devices with complex mechanics, electronics, and software. He successfully managed multi-million dollar development budgets. We work only with best-in-class developers and testers, and use rigorous development methodologies.
4. App Store approval: We have published several apps to the App Store already, and we have a deep understanding of the approval process. We always follow Apple's guidelines, and while Greenbox is not in violation of any of them, there is still the risk of rejection. We will mitigate this by being alert of any issues that may arise and addressing them immediately as required.
5. Fulfillment: We know a lot about fulfillment challenges. Dori, one of our co-founders, managed the supply chain for an international medical device manufacturer, and had to deal with the sourcing of thousands of unique parts, while getting them to production on time, often during major production ramp-ups. He has managed electronic contract manufacturers, overseeing budgets of tens of millions of dollars for many years. Dori has a total of over 13 years of experience in operations and supply chain management.
We know exactly where to go to purchase each electronic component, PCBs, plastic enclosures, and packaging materials. All of the electronic components except for the PCB and plastic enclosure are standard, off-the-shelf items. We've figured out the logistics of distribution as well. We have contacts for each of these needs, and several backups on top of those.
If you have any questions, suggestions, or concerns, get in touch and we'll provide you with the information you need to make a safe and informed pledge. We welcome your feedback and look forward to hearing from you!Learn about accountability on Kickstarter
Greenbox was designed to be a smart, sleek, and affordable smart irrigation system. Bluetooth Smart provides the best user experience we've ever seen in communicating wirelessly with a smartphone.
Most people don't need to interact with their irrigation controller more than a few times a week, even when using a smart irrigation system that occasionally prompts them to update the watering program.
We do see the added value in allowing the controller to be online at all times, which is why we're also offering Greenbox Remote Access, which also comes with Wi-Fi connectivity, for power users. Even with Wi-Fi, having also Bluetooth Smart makes the Wi-Fi setup much faster and easier.
In addition, there are future applications that we intend on exploring, which can add even more value to the system. Just one example: wireless flow sensors powered by Bluetooth Smart (a.k.a. Bluetooth Low Energy) could enable much more accurate control of water consumption without the cost and hassle of dealing with wires. Depending on the application, Bluetooth Smart accessories can last up to 5 years on a single coin cell battery. This is a revolution waiting to happen.
Yes. You will need more than one unit of Greenbox, and through the app you can connect multiple controllers under the same user name. It takes just two taps in the app to navigate between different paired Greenbox controllers.
Not at the moment, though we plan to in the future.
Greenbox Remote Access will allow you to use our web app from any device connected to the Internet. Also refer to the FAQ about setting up the Wi-Fi connection.
No, Greenbox was designed for indoor installation. If you need to install it outdoors, you can do so using a weatherproof plastic enclosure, and it should work fine.
The official stated range is 50 meters (164 feet), which is more than enough for most households. Our tests have even shown a strong connection from upstairs to a Greenbox controller located outside in a plastic enclosure. Each house is different, and walls, among other things, may affect the signal.
Fear not, we've got you covered. Our Canadian backers will receive the version of Greenbox with a standard US power supply.
Add only $15 for shipping.
If the output of the soil moisture sensor is digital (i.e. if it provides a simple on/off command), then technically, yes. The best way to do this is by connecting the sensor to the relevant station's terminal serially.
You'll need an iOS-powered device with Bluetooth Smart in order to set up the Wi-Fi connection. This does not need to be your permanent device - you'll only need it once for setup, then you can access Greenbox via Wi-Fi using the Greenbox web app from anywhere with an Internet connection.

Skip to comments.Scott Brown to be sworn in to Senate a week early
Posted on 02/03/2010 8:18:04 PM PST by La Lydia
Sen.-elect Scott Brown (R) will be sworn into office Thursday, a week earlier than expected, after he asked officials in his home state of Massachusetts on Wednesday to certify his election "without delay." Brown's addition to the Senate will mark the end of the 60-vote majority Democrats have held for much of the past year and give Republicans enough votes to block legislation as they choose.
Brown won a special election Jan. 19 for the seat of the late senator Edward M. Kennedy. He had been slated to join the Senate on Feb. 11, but in a letter to Massachusetts's governor and secretary of state, he asked that his election be certified as soon as possible so he could participate in votes scheduled before then. Brown did not say which votes he wanted to take part in.
Massachusetts Gov. Deval L. Patrick (D) is expected to sign an election certificate for Brown on Thursday morning, and the senator-elect would fly from Boston later in the day to be sworn in. Senate Democrats say the swearing-in by Vice President Biden probably will happen at 5 p.m. on Thursday.
Congressional Republicans said privately that seating Brown earlier could help them block Democratic nominees opposed by the GOP...Brown's swearing-in comes as Obama is increasingly pushing congressional Republicans to reach compromises with him on key legislation....With Democrats now holding 59 votes, key legislation and nominations will require the agreement of at least one Republican.
Brown has said that he will not vote in lockstep with the GOP, calling himself a "Scott Brown Republican." But he has ruled out backing the health-care bill the Senate passed in December.
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtonpost.com ...
he is not. he said he would be in DC by the end of the week of the election, actually the swearing in is LATE! and the dems are nervous.
Is that a rhetorical question?
Eat it, Post.
With butter and jam!! This reporter is Mr. Bias, anyway.
Mary Jo is smiling.
Brown threw down the gauntlet! Dared them to try to delay!
This is almost as good as Sarah making Rahmbo grovel and apologize.
I like to think she's resting in Abraham's bosom, resting in peace.
Too bad he has to be sworn in by a F**king Retard" like Biden huh? Thank you Rahn Emanuel.
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find only things evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelogus
Rahn = Rahm...
Its a week late.
How many illegal votes did the non-Senator cast?
Yes, he's being sworn-in FIFTEEN days LATE.
We're making progress, they are starting to listen!
No by my calculations, 21 days late. If Teddy was the next day after elections Feb. 11 is 21 days late.
All votes in between should be canceled and DO OVER!
Maybe the Rats were hoping Obama would deploy SB's National Guard unit to Iraq/Afghansistan/Other Killing Field.
I would not rule this out.
Yes, I am serious.
He's being sworn in tomorrow, that's 15 days (from after the morning after the election) longer than it took to swear in Teddy.
Just saw Scott on the news.
He has to get rid of the barn jacket-——it looks like he's been sleeping in it.
I'll be watching tomorrow————a great,great day.
Good night !
Good night!
This is Paul Kirk. If you are an American he ripped you off for over $6000. Paul Kirk is the temporary Senator for Massachusetts. He is the senator , illegally, because the law was changed, ex-post facto , to let the Governor rather than the people of Massachusetts select him. Even After Scott Brown won Paul Kirk continued to vote in the Senate, doubly illegal now because Kirk should have lost his vote after that election. Paul Kirk voted along with 59 other RATS on January 28 to rise the debt limit 1.9 Trillion dollars. A vote that would have failed without him. If dollars bills were laid end to end starting from the sun this would go past the orbit of Mars. That is $6258 for every man woman and child in America. Perhaps the largest theft in the history of man and it has attracted no more attention then a local car wreck.
Speaking of wrecks, this may be the final blow that plunges America into bankruptcy. Needless to say this will cripple America's ability to defend itself and allow all kinds of evil now laying in wait to wreck havoc upon the world. Congradulations Paul, the new decade is only 28 days and you have perhaps succeeded in becoming one of its most evil men.
The first legislation that Scott Brown should submit would be a bill naming August 25 a day of remembrance for Mary Jo Kopchne!
No problem. Just raise the minimum wage to $6258 per hour.
I think you have your tinfoil hat on too tight. : )
If Obama was going to send Scott Brown's National Guard unit to a war zone, why would the Democrats make it look even worse by stalling on seating Brown prior to the announcement? They would seat him quickly, and then Obama would send his unit to Afghanistan. Brown's decision whether to go with his unit (and leave the Senate temporarily) or claim some sort of privilege to stay behind (and be labeled a hypocrite) would be just as difficult whether or not he already had already been seated. And if Brown chose to go with his unit to Afghanistan, Deval Patrick would not be able to designate a replacement for Brown in the Senate whether it ocurred before or after he was seated.
The Democrats are liars so I think there is something with this one. Maybe they want Scott in there a week ealier so they can jam this healthcare legislation down the people's throats a week earlier.
I don't trust the Rats for anything.
They probably possess Dick Cheney's "Halliburton Weather Machine". :)
I was half asleep last night when I read this post so it never really clicked.
I never even thought of the deployment of Brown's unit.
Now THAT would make for some interesting "discussions',wouldn't it?
I would put nothing past this administration. Nothing.
I'm looking forward to the swearing in this PM.
I'm with you - I put NOTHING past the Rats!
Hopefully Scott doesn't get deployed to Iraq before 5 pm.
Camelot is dead. THANK YOU GOD, THANK YOU!!!

Rather than derail the other thread, I decided to start a new one, specifically on the topic of books and reading.
So what is your kids' age?
What is the distribution of books by language?
Where do you get your books?
Do they read a lot in either or both languages?
What is the distribution of their reading time by langauge?
What are the rules for parent reading a book?
My DD is almost 3.
Her bookshelf is evenly split russian and english. I try hard to keep it that way.
At first we relied on my mom to bring us books from Russia, but I finally found a decent american based company to order books from.
She's a bookworm. She can't read yet, but she "reads" all the time by herself. She makes up these complex stories based on pictures, it's quite hilarious especially considering that she knows the books by heart, but still chooses to create a new story for herself.
Interestingly enough her reading preference is the same as her speaking preference which is the same as the distribution of langauge she hears. She's 70% english 30% russian in all of those. When we get new books she sometimes will fixate on a couple and read them every day which disturbs that balance.
We don't do OPOL for books. My DH can't read russian, so he does english. However if my daughter brings me an english book I'll read it in english, but discuss it in russian.

This project will research and develop short communication scenarios (or critical incidents) based on authentic challenges in intercultural communication from an Alberta professional and industrial workplace context. The critical incident scenarios will be created in a web-based, video format, supported by an activity guide. Instructors will have the enhanced ability to use an Alberta based resource to teach intercultural communications to immigrants. The project will enhance the employability of immigrants by creating a resource that will develop their intercultural communication competence, preparing them to navigate communication differences in a multicultural workplace. Enhanced intercultural communication competence will support immigrants to more effectively enter the Canadian labour market and maintain employment.

"I ordered these for my wedding invitations, and they came our gorgeous! I loved the design and the color options they offered. I went with the square option, and used the cream colored background and solid color for the back design. I love that the paper is already shimmery, which also adds to the design. I did think the paper was a little thin, and maybe I should have ordered a thicker paper, but overall all I was very happy with my order and my invitations! My order also arrived earlier than expected."
"Loved my pearlized invites! Didn't want them to be overly fancy but had just the right amount of delicate and they are beautiful!"
"I honestly cannot say enough about the customer service, customization process, and this beautiful invitation! I was SO nervous to order my wedding invitations online, but I will be telling all my friends to order from wedding paper divas! I was able to COMPLETLY customize my invitations and RSVP's to have the exact format and look I was wanting. Upgrading to the thicker paper is completely worth it for the price! I am beyond happy."
"This save the date turned out amazing! The color matched perfectly to my wedding color and it is so classy and pretty. Friends and family loved it :) completely happy with the turn out!!!"
"The person who reviewed my edits was able to do exactly what I had asked for! We had changed the food choices to number boxes for age groups and asked to enlarge the date text box above to included our buffet options. They also were able to change the back colors to match the special colors we asked for on our invitations! They turned out better than we envisioned they would be."

Beltran delivers epic performance in Game 1 of NLCS
Carlos Beltran's performance in Game 1 of the NLCS was legendary -- even by his standards
ST. LOUIS -- The difference in the Cardinals' 3-2, 13-inning, four-hour, 47-minute victory over the Dodgers Friday night was very simple: The Cardinals had
Carlos Beltran. The Dodgers did not.
For all of Beltran's postseason brilliance, he never has made more of an impact on one game than he did with three monumental plays in the opener of this National League Championship Series at Busch Stadium.
Walk-off hit, check. With one out in the 13th, Beltran smacked a line drive to right off closer Kenley Jansen that scored Daniel Descalso, who had singled and gone to second after a walk to Matt Carpenter.
Game-saving play, check. With the score 2-2 and two on for the Dodgers in the 10th, Beltran caught a fly in medium right field and nailed Mark Ellis at the plate.
Game-tying hit, check. After the Dodgers scored their only runs in the third on Juan Uribe's single, Beltran smacked a two-run double off Zack Greinke with two out in the bottom of the inning.
"You can't play a much better game than that," Carpenter said. "Deep down, I knew somehow, someway he was going to drive that run in."
Outstanding performances in October are nothing new for Beltran, who ranks among the top postseason hitters of all time. He cites an ability to stay relaxed at all times -- the 80 percent rule, he calls it -- for his ability to deliver at this time of year. He was just as much at ease describing his heroics.
On the walk-off single, he said he had sized up Jensen and knew what pitch was coming.
"(On the first pitch), He made a good pitch, a backdoor cutter for a strike," Beltran said. "After that, he tried to make me chase some cutters in the dirt. I was able to let those go and put myself into a hitter's count. Once I put myself into a hitter's count (3-1), I knew he was going to throw a pitch that I was going to be able to hit."
How right he was. "It was a pitch right down the middle," he added.
On the double play, the key was making sure the weak-armed Jon Jay did not make the catch. When Michael Young lofted the fly, it stayed in the air long enough for either outfielder to make the catch. Though the center fielder typically makes the call on such balls, this time Beltran took charge.
"I called the ball about five or six times and Jon Jay was able to hear me and leave it up to me," Beltran said. "Once I caught it, I was hoping to make a good throw to home."
The throw beat Ellis by three feet and, despite Ellis steamrolling into the plate, Yadier Molina held onto the ball.
The two-run double in the third came in the only inning that Greinke allowed a runner as far as second in his eight innings.
"After my first at-bat (strikeout looking), I went to the video room and was looking (at) those pitches," Beltran said. "To me, they felt like they were outside. They were right on the edges for strikes.
"In my second at-bat, I had a little better idea of how they were trying to pitch me. I was looking for pitch out. Once again, I got to a 3-1 count and he threw a changeup (and) one of the few mistakes he made. I was able to hit it good. I knew it wasn't going to leave the ballpark but I was hoping that it was going to be enough to fall for a hit."
Center fielder Andre Ethier, playing his first game in the field in nearly a month, jumped into the fence but did not come up with the catch and the score was tied. Neither team mounted much of a threat over the next seven innings, when the Dodgers were thwarted by Beltran's double play.
Three innings later, he frustrated them even more. It was his night, just as this is his time of year.

Actor John C. Reilly brings character to concert at Miller Caves
The Miller Caves, underneath the brewery that not only made Milwaukee famous but also helped define the city itself, apparently never seemed, until Sunday night, like a place to hold a concert.
In retrospect, after the very first such event courtesy of John C. Reilly and Friends, the historic location was a small club waiting to happen: The painted backdrop of cavorting (presumably) Germans had retro style, as did the overhead lamps and the high-arched ceiling. »Read Full Article(4)
Diva Ross packs a lot into 84 minutes

But judging by the audience's reaction, the vast majority thought it was worth every penny. »Read Full Article(5)

Peppermint Patty Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars.
I first made these cookie bars last year around Christmas time. My family went completely bonkers for them. My friend Erin's eyes completely lit up as she tasted one. Kevin says they are the best thing I've ever made. As I cut them into squares, I couldn't stop "tasting" the crumbs.
They are downright addicting.
I made these stuffed cookie bars again this past weekend for two reasons. First… look at them. The melty peppermint filling is an obvious excuse to make them again. And again. And again.
Second, I went a little crazy buying Halloween candy this year and have been on the prowl for recipes to use up all my extras. I don't get any trick-or-treaters at my apartment.
To start, mix up a quick chocolate chip cookie dough recipe. While it's a pretty fool-proof and basic recipe, you could always use store-bought cookie dough instead. I definitely prefer the homemade recipe below – it's chewy, soft, and just tastes better. Doesn't everything taste better homemade?
I only used 1 and 1/4 cups of mini chocolate chips in the cookie dough because there is extra chocolate going into the middle layer with the peppermint patties. I didn't want the chocolate to overpower the mint OR the cookie dough base itself.
Layer half of the cookie dough into the baking pan and arrange the peppermint patties on top. I layered in as many peppermint patties as humanly possible – I didn't want a single bite to be without! The middle layer equaled about 26 peppermint patties – the amount in your typical 11-ounce bag. You could always use Junior Mints in this recipe as well. Been there, done that. Just as tasty.
Top the peppermint patty layer with the rest of the cookie dough and press down evenly. While the cookie bars bake, the peppermint patties melt all over inside the two cookie layers. Melty peppermint patties. Does it get any better?!
Bake for 38-40 minutes and allow to cool COMPLETELY before cutting into squares. Waiting is the hardest part! Smelling the finished cookie bars and waiting for them to completely cool before digging in… pure torture.
Consider yourself warned: things will get messy if you cut the bars while they're still warm. I have the patience of a three year old, so I put the pan in the refrigerator to cool things down quickly. After I neatly cut myself a square, I warmed it back up in the microwave. Serving suggestion – cut the bars while they're cold, eat the bars warm!
With all the melty chocolate and drippy peppermint goo, I was not able to stop at one square. That says a lot coming from a gal who has dessert A.D.D. I'm usually eager for the next dessert recipe. But with these? No! I never wanted the pan to end.
What may just be the simplest recipe idea ever – stuffing peppermint patties inside cookies – has proven to be one of the best desserts I've EVER made.
With an archive FULL of cookies/brownies/bars/cupcakes… that's impressive! You're welcome.
York Peppermint Patty Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars
Yield: 24 bars
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 55 minutes, plus cooling
Soft & chewy chocolate chip cookie bars stuffed with York Peppermint Patties
- 3/4 cup (1.5 sticks) butter, softened to room temperature (if using salted butter, omit added salt below)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar (or dark brown)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 and 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
- 11 ounce bag York Peppermint Patties (about 26)
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray an 11x7 baking pan with nonstick spray and set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric or stand mixer, beat butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla, beating until well combined. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Add dry ingredients slowly to the wet ingredients. By hand, fold in the chocolate chips until fully combined. Do not overmix.
- Press down 1/2 of the cookie dough into prepared baking pan. Place unwrapped peppermint patties over the bottom dough layer. Top the remaining half of cookie dough over the peppermint patties, pressing to evenly flatten down. Bake for 38-40 minutes or until baked through and the edges are brown. (Mine took exactly 38 minutes.)
- Allow the cookie bars to cool completely (about 1 hour) before cutting into squares. Bars keep well in an airtight container for up to 7 days.

Sally, thank you for this amazing recipe! I made these today and I'm in love with them! My heart is still pounding for how many I ate. Lol. Lots o good sugar.
I'll be writing a post about them tomorrow on my blog (www.tinaschic.com).
I look forward to the next recipe of yours that I try. 🙂
YOU are a FREAKIN genius and please keep these amazing scrumptious recipes coming. I dont care how many pounds I'm going testing every single recipe on this site. My hubby is going to lose his mind. You need to compile a cook book because these are some of the most original desert recipes I've come across in a very long time.
I am soo stoked that I came across your amazingly yummy filled blog!! I was looking for a way to make these chocolate chip cookies I tried to make from scratch not taste like puffy sugar cookies. My favorite is nestle toll house store bought dough b/c I've never had good chocolate chip cookies. I cant wait to try your recipe, and I'm adding some brown sugar and corn starch to my cookie dough now, and maybe a little more butter to salvage this bit of dough 🙂 your favorite choc chip recipe is the way i love mine, and when i saw cake batter cc i was like ahh!! Thank you for all the recipes I'll try to post my results yay 🙂 BTW your pics are outstanding and are making me hungry!!
Hey Sally!!
Well my BF LOVESSSSS peppermint patties so I am making these for him now. However, Your chewy chocolate chunk cookies are probably my favorite things in the world. So I decided to use that as my cookie base. I am on the stage of chilling the cookie dough. I am curious why you didnt use your amazing chocolate chip cookie recipe instead?? Just curious…. 🙂 Thank you!!
HI! Me and my parents are having a bake-off this weekend, and I would adore to make this scrumptious looking recipe! But I don't think they sell York Peppermint Patties in England, do you have any ideas what i could use instead? Maybe after eight mints but they look a little thin?
P.s. Last weekend i made your cinnamon apple and caramel buns, oh my they were so delicious! (I won) 😀
Oooohhhhh my gosh! These were INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To be totally honest, I wasn't sure how they would taste with all the 'peppermintyness' but they are addicting! I just packed my lunchbox for tomorrow (I'm a teacher) and I have a big square just waiting for lunch time 🙂 MMMMMM thank you so much for sharing this recipe. I can't wait to make them again!
PS I'm baking my way through your site and let me just say…..my waistband isn't happy, but my family sure is! All of the recipes are amazing 🙂
Hi Sally, first, thank you for your blog, your recipes, for the entire package. I've never before developed an interest in blogs, mainly because they don't usually offer intuitive links and sidebars helping me understand content, or providing useful suggestions. Because you seamlessly anticipate what I might want to know, in addition to whatever subject I'm reading about, I'm in love with your work. Also, it helps that the pictures are gorgeous AND you pay attention to grammar and spelling. Your attention to detail is very much appreciated.
Now, my question. I baked these in a dark bottomed, non-stick pan, removing them from the oven after 29 minutes – they were already starting to brown around the edges. They turned out picture perfect and tasted fantastic. I wonder though, did I jump the gun and take them out too early? Would they have likely burned had I let them go the full 38 minutes? If it helps, I greased the pan with Crisco, instead of cooking spray and used salted butter rather than unsalted, omitting the salt.
Thanks so much, and keep it up!
