"Everything marketed to a bank CIO will be touted as having energy-saving or environmentally-sustainable features, no matter how small or fleeting," said Gartner.
Gartner said banks must make the right technology decisions or risk losing control of financial relationships.

PC controls for games originally designed for a PS/2-like gamepad
#1 Members - Reputation: 197
Posted 12 December 2012 - 11:56 PM
I'm pretty close to a releasing a 3rd-person action-adventure demo I've been making; I just need to tie up controls and other loose ends. I used a Logitech Rumblepad to develop the game. But in order to reach as many people as possible it should be comfortable to play with keyboard and mouse, and be flexible to other gamepads.
I'm not much of a PC gamer (ok I don't play PC games at all) so I don't really know much about how PC games handle controls at all. I figure that's the main problem here, so I guess I'll just get hold of some PC games and do whatever they do (and I'm happy to accept suggestions for any PC games that do an exemplary job with controls). But I wanted to see if anyone who's faced this problem has some advice.
Does anyone know of a project to collect gamepad definitions?

So that leaves us to discuss what would be the default settings, in case the player doesn't use its own. It's hard to tell though if we can't know what are the exact controls of the game. A quick overview doesn't tell us much about how to perform each action.
This is being done in SDL2 right now, actually.

For Eample : Charctors (I)nventory would be tied to the I key. A Visual Zoom in The Z-Key and Zoom out Shift + Z key.
Most game pads have 8 - 12 buttons and use a combination, there are a lot more keys on the KeyBoard & way less options on a mouse.
Hope This Helps

However, here's some common key configurations I would expect to find in almost any third person action game (right handed):
W - Forward
S - Back
A - Strafe Left
D - Strafe Right
C - Crouch
LShift - Sprint
E - Interact
F - Grenade/Thrown item/etc
Left Button - Primary Attack
Right Button - Alternate Attack / Precision Fire (such as iron-sights if gun-based)
Middle - Various / same as keyboard F

Well, for starters make sure you allow the player to remap the controls =P
What you might want to do is pick up some older PC games of varying genre's on the cheap and see how their controls work.
Agreed. Always allow your players a way to customize controls, even on a console you should, and much more so on PC.
Also, gamers tend to be "used to" a few general control schemes, which is why indeed it is a good idea to play a few games and see what they do. Most shooters(1st or 3rd person) use a combination of mouse and WASD with top row numbers for weapon selection and mouse buttons for attacking/shooting, which happens to be what the above posters mention.

great shoes
great shoes
Excellent shoe!
Quality, fit and style of these Saucony's is the best! I bought these shoes as a less bulky option to wear with workout gear, for to and from yoga, and for my shorter walks (2-3 miles). They fit great, are true to size, look good after the gym for day to day street wear. They have arch support and enough cushion for everyday use but not enough for strenuous workouts or long hikes, but hopefully that's not why anyone is choosing these.
Sexy Saucony
I love this style of Saucony so much, I have them in 5 different colors!! They almost feel like you're not wearing shoes! LOVE!
Purchased these for work. Pleasantly surprised with the arch support and comfort. Cute and comfortable. I do long periods of standing and all weather outdoor work. Would probably not recommend for wet weather. Fit true to size. Size up one if you are borderline sizing. First time I have purchased this brand, very happy! Love them!
I love these tennis shoes ; theyre like going bare
Well, I already had a pair of these tennis shoes for a year or so. My daughter got a pair and pretty much wore her's out she loved them so much. While visiting my 96 year old Mom loved them and expressed her like for them. My Mom never wants anything, so of course, I bought and sent her some navy blue ones that she just loves and gets compliments on that she looks "sporty". Pretty funny.
Always get the best price.

Police search for Shrewsbury womanMay 10,2013Police looking
for local woman
Police are asking for help in locating a Shrewsbury woman who may be in distress, according to the Rutland County Sheriffs Department.
Police said Jessica N. Lennon, 36, asked a convenience store clerk in Clarendon for help and acted strangely during her visit to the store at about noon Monday.
Seven hours later, Sheriffs Department Sgt. David Fox said, police reached Lennon by phone in New Jersey, where she said she was fine.
Despite that assurance, Fox said police have concerns about her welfare and are hoping to talk to her again.
Fox said police believe Lennon is back in the area after she was reportedly seen at Washbucklers in Rutland during the early-morning hours Tuesday.
Lennon described as 5 feet 6 inches tall with brown hair, hazel eyes and a tattoo of a lizard on her shoulder was last seen driving a silver 2007 Volvo XC90.

Improve Your Knowledge Of The Game By Learning These Common Basketball Fouls
As a new basketball coach, it is important that you develop a complete understanding of the rules of the game. This includes knowing what the most common fouls in basketball are and what the penalty is for committing them.
The more knowledgeable you are about all aspects of basketball, including the various fouls, the more successful you will be on the court. Do yourself and your players a big favor...don't overlook this important part of coaching basketball.
Personal Fouls In Basketball
The following list includes the most common basketball fouls that players commit during games and practices. These are considered personal fouls and are called against the basketball player initiating the contact.
- Blocking - When a basketball player uses their body position to prevent their opponent from advancing.
- Charging - When an offensive player runs into a defender who has an established position.
- Elbowing - When a basketball player swings their elbows in an excessive manner and makes contact with their opponent.
- Holding - Using the hands to interfere with or limit an opponent's freedom of movement.
- Illegal Screen - The basketball player setting the screen is still moving when the defender makes contact with them. This is a form of blocking which prevents the defender from moving around the screen.
- Hand Check - When a defender intermittently or continuously uses one or both hands on an opposing player, usually the ball handler.
- Over-the-Back - Jumping on and over the back of an opposing player who is attempting to rebound the basketball.
- Reaching In - When attempting to steal the basketball, the defender extends their arm and hand and makes contact with the ball handler.
- Tripping - When a basketball player uses their foot or leg to cause their opponent to fall or loose their balance.
Other Common Fouls In Basketball
The following list includes more common fouls that occur during basketball games.
- Flagrant Foul - A foul committed in a violent and harmful manner.
- Intentional Foul - A foul committed on purpose, usually by a defensive player, to stop the clock or prevent a basket.
- Shooting Foul - When a defender makes contact with an offensive player who is in the act of shooting the basketball.
- Technical Foul - Violations and misconduct that are detrimental to the game. These are penalized by free-throw opportunities.
Basketball Fouls And Consequences
When a basketball foul is committed, there is a consequence or penalty for the player (or coach) that committed the foul. The following list provides you with an explanation on the penalty that goes along with committing each type of foul.
- Flagrant Foul - Two free throws and possession of the basketball out of bounds. The basketball player committing the foul is disqualified from the game.
- Intentional Foul - Two free throws and possession of the basketball out of bounds.
- Personal Foul - Possession of the basketball out of bounds. One-and-one free throw situation if the team is above their foul limit.
- Shooting Foul - Two or three free throws depending on the type of shot taken.
- Technical Foul - Two free throws and possession of the basketball out of bounds.

Leading the Way - CircleJerkBoys
Models: Derek Princeton and Trystian Sweet
Studio: Circle Jerk Boys
Derek Princeton is back this week, and he's got a new friend to play with. For those of you unfamiliar with Mr. Princeton, Derek is 22, and he is one of those str8 but not narrow boys. Even though he has a live-in girlfriend that keeps him plenty busy, he still has been finding the time to explore his sexuality on the other end of the buffet. He was even featured on our brother site, ExtraBigDicks.com, breaking in his thick 8" baby maker. Last Derek was here he had his second ride on the cock trolley as sexy Logan Robbins got his chance at tappin' that str8 ass. Derek took it like a man. It was a definite scorcher as he accommodated every delicious inch. Enjoying the weather this week is Trystian Sweet. Trystian is 22 and is in San Diego dancing at a local club. He dances and he loves being able to travel and do what he loves. Who knew the life of a Go-go boy was so glam? Trystian is from San Francisco, so he's not used to the heat; but he admits it's a nice change of pace, and is actually considering moving here. Fortunately for us, after a petite snafu with a model we had booked previously, we were left short a circlejerkboy. We say "fortunately" because it gave us the chance to work with Trystian.

Announcer FAIL: Hockey Host Compares Players to 9/11 First Responders (w/ VIDEO Breakdown)
Some things are best left unsaid.
Oftentimes, you hear radio hosts, announcers and players talk about "going to battle," describing a player as a "warrior," or even talk about a game as "going to war." I have some simple rules when it comes to mixing in analogies involving war or battle or real-life terror and comparing them to sports.
I don't do it.
Or, to be clear, I make every effort not to do it. I'm guessing I've slipped up somewhere along the way.
I don't know what CBC hockey studio host Ron MacLean's policy is on this subject, but if it's similar to mine, then he had his slip-up on Wednesday night leading into Game 6 of the playoff series between the New York Rangers and the Washington Capitals.

TicketsSat., Jan. 7, 7:00pm
If you're wondering which category MacLean's faux pas fell under, file it under "inappropriate, completely oblivious, rambling 9/11 first responder analogies."
It came as the lead-in to the introduction of Game 6. I'll break it down after you've watched it; here you go:
0:10 -- "...united in the birth of the country, they're also linked in tragedy, they were the twin targets of the coordinated attacks on 9/11..."
This already felt out of place and awkward. Invoking memories of 9/11, not exactly how you go about setting the tone for Game 6 of a hockey playoff series. It would get weirder.
0:15 -- "...and it's crazy to compare what the emergency responders did during that time..."
So crazy that MacLean is about to spend the next 60 seconds doing it.
0:20 -- "As you enjoy this series between the New York Rangers and the Washington Capitals, you can't help but be struck by these players and the way they've played these games...they ARE like police officers, they ARE like firefighters..."
This is where it starts to get uncomfortable...
0:39 -- "...the pain these men have faced, the price they keep on paying..."
Oh boy....
0:47 -- "...the hearts they keep on lifting!"
Somebody tackle him, please.
1:00 -- "We all know the firefighters, our worst day is their every day."
Wow. I don't know if Ron MacLean knows anything about soccer, but let's try and get him on the World Cup and see if he can start an international incident!

text: Home > Lifestyle > Stop smoking > News 03 January 2013 Ex-smokers fare worse after heart bypass Experts found that ex-smokers contemplating heart bypass surgery may run into trouble due to lingering smoking-related enzyme changes in the leg vein typically used for grafts. 0 Ask Stop Smoking Advice » Assess Ready to quit smoking? » Assess Are you at risk for cancer? » Assess Are you at risk for COPD? » Quit smoking this year Is this the best anti-smoking ad ever? Chinese scientists have found that recent ex-smokers contemplating heart bypass surgery may run into trouble due to lingering smoking-related enzyme changes in the leg vein typically used for grafts. The researchers noted that over time problematically high enzyme levels found in the saphenous (leg) vein do eventually drop back to normal once a smoker has kicked the habit. However, their analysis of 208 patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery revealed that this stabilisation does not transpire immediately. While noticeable improvement can be seen within six months after smoking cessation, the team found that full enzyme-reversal process can sometimes exceed a year. So, patients who have lived smoke-free for less than a year before surgery run the risk that their bypass graft will ultimately fail. "Although recovery after smoking cessation appears somewhat disappointing, it illustrates exactly the importance of prompt smoking cessation for patients who will receive CABG," Dr Sun Yongxin and colleagues at Zhongshan Hospital at Fudan University in Shanghai said in a journal news release. The study appears in the issue of the Annals of Thoracic Surgery. How the study was done The authors note that the issue is of potentially enormous concern in their home country, given that China is the biggest producer and consumer of cigarettes worldwide, with roughly a third of its 1.1 billion residents currently smoking. The team divided their patient pool into six groups according to their current smoking status and time passed since quitting. Heavy smoking was found to boost levels of "matrix metalloproteinase enzymes" found in the saphenous vein. The vein is most commonly used during coronary artery bypass surgery for the kind of grafting that can re-open heart pathways and improve heart health. Such high enzyme levels have previously been linked to an increased risk for graft failure. Experts urged patients to stop smoking The authors stressed that patients need to quit smoking as soon as possible before undergoing graft surgery. At the same time, they suggested that alternative grafting sources may be needed for some patients. "[This study] may provide the evidence for encouraging the use of more arterial grafts [rather than vein grafts] when heavy smokers undergo CABG," Yongxin's team said. While the study found an association between recent past smoking and higher graft failure risk, it did not prove a cause-and-effect relationship.

I understand.
The lists that the dims are using to commit voter fraud by sending voter registration forms to dead dogs and illegal aliens and dead voters... are coming from a left wing company owned and operated by harold ickes and this same company is used by the justice department to compile lists to sue states for implementing voter fraud laws (Texas proved the lists were bogus and won their case)... and at the bottom of every pile of sh!t... lies another dimrat party communist with ties back to pre WWII communist groups and parties. There will be hangings one day... if America survives... treason lives in DC... it is the prevalent power there. "Some" of these enemies have an R behind their name... ALL those with a D behind their name are in on it.
The New Deal was from the bottom of the deck, and about the only thing left to do is kick over the table, and shoot the dealer.
The fact is, his time would have better spent playing some more golf than writing this bs EO.
Good plan!

"Tonight's passage of H.Res. 895 establishing an Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE) represents the most dramatic progress in years in the drive to strengthen ethics enforcement in the House. It is the culmination of many months of deliberation and review by the Special Task Force on Ethics Enforcement, created jointly by Speaker Pelosi and Minority Leader Boehner. I strongly believe that the approach we have taken to ethics enforcement will improve the reputation of the House and will break the appearance of an 'old boy network' forever. The OCE brings a level of independence to the process because no current Members of Congress can serve on the panel. It also brings a level of transparency that is sorely lacking in the current process by requiring that a public statement be issued on most matters reviewed by the OCE. Taken together, these two fundamental elements will go a long way toward restoring the public's confidence in the people's House," stated Congressman Mike Capuano, Chair of the Special Task Force on Ethics Enforcement.

To help 1up honor the 2600 this week, I figured I'd take a moment to defend one of the more notorious games in its library; E.T. The Extra Terrestrial.
Many blame the game for being the straw that broke the video game industries' back before its nearly life ending market crash of the 80's. It was being groomed to be the biggest video game blockbuster of its time. Why not? E.T. was the biggest movie blockbuster of its time so it made perfect sense. Atari was so confident of its success that more copies were made than 2600 systems out in the world. (so its said). But despite over a million copies sold, poor marketing put Atari into serious debt. A fatal flaw in the gameplay made it a bit too hard for the average player. Because of all this, its been understandably but unfairly deemed one of the worst video games ever made.
Now don't get me wrong, E.T. is not a great game, and I guess its hard to say its a good game, but by no means does it deserve the repution its garnered over the years. The game actually has a lot going for it, the main character actually LOOKS like E.T., there is no question thats who you're controlling. Already its got more going for it than the legendary 2600 "RPG" Adventure, who's dragon looks like a deflated balloon animal duck. The opening graphic of E.T.'s face is also very good, and the theme song is accurately reproduced on the 2600's limited sound chip. I also really liked the sound the space ship makes. Now thats all just bells and whistles, how about the gameplay? Well, the gameplay is where it hurts the most, but with practice and a few adjustments you can get enjoyment from this, too.
The object of the game is to walk around as E.T. and find Reese's Pieces and parts to your Fisher Price space phone so you can call home to the other E.T.'s and hitch a ride off the 3rd rock. Elliot helps you along the way and bad guys in the form of FBI agents and scientists try to take you away, probably to do horrible experiments on you.
The Reese's can be found dotted around the main landscape and phone parts can be found at the bottom of pits, or "wells", that can be found just about everywhere you go. Its very easy to fall into these pits but trying to get out can be a real test of your patience. First you have to make E.T. levitate by raising his head, once you levitate up out of the pit you have to try move to the side and catch the edge before you fall back in. Easier said than done, the edges of the pits are very glitchy and some are nearly impossible to get out of. You have to find a sweet spot thats more forgiving than the rest of the pit before you can walk away. Even once you made it out of the pit, it might suck you back in as soon as you try to move. This is where most people give up on the game, and I don't blame them, but once you have the trick down its a little better.
The landscape is set up kinda like the original Zelda, in that you move screen to screen in an overhead view, except there are only a handful of screens in the whole game. As you move about each screen, icons at the top of the screen will change depending on where you are. These icons tell you what will happen if you raise E.T.'s head in that spot. There is a 4-way directional that will let you warp to the next screen in that direction, and other thinks like eat a Reese's, send an FBI agent back to his home, or call Elliot, who comes by and takes your Reese's for safe keeping until you beat the game.
Now once you find all your phone parts and hoarded your Reese's, you find the space ship icon and call your kin. Now a timer counts down while you try to find the landing spot icon. Reach the landing spot before the timer counts down and you've completed the game. Rinse and repeat.
The key to enjoying E.T. the first time is to play on an easier difficulty level that removes the scientists and FBI agents trying to get you. (setting 3). This lets you explore the maps and pits uninterrupted. Once you get the hang of it, you can add the bad guys back for a challenge.
Sounds like a complex game for a system known for bad Asteroids and Space Invader clones, right?
I think E.T. does a great job of taking many aspects of the orginal movie and incorporating them into the core gameplay. FBI agents, Elliot, weird alien powers, Recees Pieces, toy phone, even a flower pot are all icons from the movie that are utilized to re-create the feel of the film on the primative console. E.T. actually sold very well, it did not kill the video game industry. The industry was already circling the bowl, it just wasn't able to save it.
So next time you see a dusty 2600 with E.T. stuck in the handful of banged up carts at a yard sale, pick it up and give it a try. Just remember to play on difficulty 3!

Wet 'n' Wild Teal or No Teal Fast Dry Nail Lacquer ($1.99 for 0.46 fl. oz.) is a silver shimmered blue-teal. The formula was on the thinner side and seemed a touch watery, which was emphasized after three coats and still having some visible nail line. It is similar to Orly Bailamos, which is a touch tealer and more opaque. Butter London Artful Dodger is also similar in color, but it is bluer and doesn't have any shimmer.Read Full Review
Nails Inc. Connaught Square Nail Lacquer
By the nature of the polish, it has a rough, uneven texture–which is essentially by design, hence the "3D effect"–the texture has more to it than a single-sized particle glitter polish, because that tends to have a more uniform unevenness, while this one has more of a bumpy feel. It doesn't bother me, and again, it's what Nails Inc. was going for with these polishes.Read Full Review
Deborah Lippmann Makin' Whoopee Nail Lacquer
Essie's Super Bossa Nova is similar in brightness but it's much redder. Similarly, Urban Decay Woodstock lacks the fuchsia element of this shade, plus it has a cream finish. SpaRitual Imaginarium comes the closest–it is slightly lighter and, arguably, brighter.Read Full Review
Deborah Lippmann Glitter in the Air Nail Lacquer
Much of the concept and color was inspired by Pink's performance of Glitter in the Air at the 2010 Grammy Awards, and I think the color came out exactly as Lippmann intended–whether it's something that draws you in is a different story. I showed swatches with three coats, which is as heavy as I would go with this polish, because it has a thicker, jelly-like consistency. I don't think it would be opaque in four, so those looking for a more opaque look would not find this to their liking. It could be used for layering as well. I typically get at least a week of wear (with minor tip wear) with no chipping with Deborah Lippmann's polishes.Read Full Review
Illamasqua DWS Nail Varnish
The formula was exactly what I expect of Illamasqua: excellent. It's thick without being goopy, so it delivers amazing color coverage–almost opaque in a single coat, though I did two here.

Top drivers from all over the Midwest traveled to the Spring Classic at Rockford Speedway. Vintage cars were scheduled to compete and the big event, which is the Big 8 Series 108 Lap Feature Race, was scheduled for late afternoon. However, the drivers went into a holding pattern due to rain with twenty-one laps to go in the Mid-American Stock Car Series. The Spring Classic was eventually rained out and drivers did not finish the race. Tickets and Pit Passes are good for the next two weeks or can be used May 26th at the Big 8 Series Event.

Until last spring, Johnny Richey had never voted in a presidential election. "I always say, 'Mine ain't gonna count no way,'" he explains. "Who am I going to vote for: Lucifer, the devil or Satan?" But this year, the 56-year-old writer and producer of R&B songs cast his Democratic primary ballot for Sen. Barack Obama, and he didn't stop there. The day after Obama's May 18 rally in Portland drew a crowd of 75,000, Richey realized that he wanted to do something to support the campaign. Also, he needed a job.
So every weekday for the past 2 1/2 months, Johnny Richey has stood by a blue tent in front of the Piedmont Post Office branch on Northeast Killingsworth Street and 7th Avenue, selling merchandise emblazoned with Barack Obama's name, or face, or both. He started by selling buttons. He has since expanded his stock to include bumper stickers, yard signs and hats. But mostly he sells T-shirts—black, white and orange shirts reading "Vote for Your President" and "I like Obama, but is America ready for a President with brains?" He thinks he's sold about 500 shirts since May, for prices ranging from $10 to $15. "I started getting 'em by the fifties and hundreds," Richey says. "I just turn 'em over."
Obama may be battling attacks by Sen. John McCain calling him an empty celebrity, but he's unquestionably a star in one sense: He moves product. NBC News polled gift-shop owners nationwide last month, and found Obama swag outselling McCain wares at a rate of 5-to-1. Some of the merch is a corporate ploy: At Urban Outfitters stores, including the Portland branch on 2320 NW Westover Road, $28 tees feature OBEY's iconic "HOPE" portrait or self-conscious jokes like "Obama Says Knock You Out."
But in Portland, the most dogged bootleg-shirt salesmen—the die-hard Obamapreneurs—can be found on Northeast Killingsworth Street, in the heart of the city's traditionally black neighborhoods. Across the street from Richey's stand, at the northwest corner of Killingsworth and Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, former City Council candidate Woodrow Broadnax sets up a table and metal rack every Sunday and some weekdays, selling shirts to benefit "The Office of Mr. Juneteenth." (He's Mr. Juneteenth, and an officer of the National Juneteenth Convention.) Broadnax's signature item is a $20 tee with Obama's name inside the Presidential seal. He claims he invented the design and showed it to Obama volunteers, who promptly stole it: "They took that idea from me."
For sheer stamina, however, no street-corner shirt vendor in Portland can match Richey, who, when he isn't in front of the post office, sets up shop with his girlfriend, Jeannie Moore, at events like Last Thursday on Alberta Street or the Skidmore Market. His shirts, which he buys from manufacturers in Chicago, Los Angeles and Pasadena, Calif., range from a basic "Yes We Can" slogan to messages not necessarily endorsed by the candidate: One shirt displays Obama's face floating next to those of Martin Luther King Jr., John F. Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy, while another—Richey designed this one himself—says "Coexist on Earth" above a logo including the religious symbols of Christianity, Judaism and Islam, along with a Holy Grail and a peace pipe. His most controversial tee, Richey says, is the one with Obama Photoshopped between King and Malcolm X, which reads, "Change By Any Means Necessary." Richey takes it to mean the message of hope should be spread in creative ways.
Richey smokes Old Gold filtered cigarettes and sports gold-framed sunglasses, and carries a portable credit-card machine next to a cardboard box for cash donations. "We don't like calling it 'sales,'" he says. "We like calling it 'donations.' Sales is not a nonprofit word."
But Johnny Ray Richey Productions LLC is not a nonprofit, as Obama campaign volunteers are quick to point out. "He is totally misrepresenting his sales," says Obama North-Northeast Office Manager Colleen Davis. She used to send people looking for buttons and yard signs to Richey—the campaign office is perpetually sold out—until she was told last week that Richey was claiming to be affiliated with the campaign. "People think that they're giving money to the Obama campaign," Davis says. "The Obama campaign says he isn't giving money. Johnny is not being honest."
Richey, who says he makes just enough money from his booth to buy more shirts and pay for rent, gas and hamburgers, has his own justifying logic. "We're making sure that every person in Portland sees this hat, sees this shirt, sees this poster in the window," he says. "And that's what we're giving to Obama."
His belief in the campaign certainly seems fervent. He gives away Obama buttons and bumper stickers to passersby without any money, and he's written a new gospel song, "Yes We Can," which he plans to release next year. (The chorus: "Yes we can/ We can do it/ Yes we can/ We can change it/ 'Cause you have to try and try and try love again.") Richey looks back at his "By Any Means Necessary" shirt: "I do live by that."
Richey's T-shirt booth is open from 9 am-5 pm Monday-Friday at 630 NE Killingsworth St. Official Obama merchandise is available at store.barackobama.com.

Romulo Yanes
The flavor combinations in this creamy yet light soup are complex, but making it is very easy. Like the best appetizers, the soup wakes up the palate and is not too filling.
Leave a Review
Made with vegetable broth, and with coconut oil in place of butter to make the dish vegan (and also in place of olive oil, but because it fares better at high temperatures for spice tempering as you do with the mustard seed and curry leaf). Good flavor, good texture, and more satisfying than I expected from an on-the-thin-side soup. Spicy, but warm spices rather than really hot. The mustard seed adds a nice bitter balance to the sweet of the pumpkin. Amazing with good, crusty bread.
Lovely! I did everything from scratch, roasting the pumpkin and mashing it, and preparing the chicken broth. I probably over-reduced it (cooked it for good 40'+ rather than 30' as advised, so I'd advise to be careful not to...the mustard seeds and curry leaves (first time used both ever) make a good 40% of the uniqueness of this soup and add character to pumpkin, usually blander than my taste would like ... Once cooked I made it into a veloute', just before adding seeds +leaves. Worked for me... And one more note of carefulness not to 'over-pop' the mustard seeds: they pop immediately in hot oil ...(however greatly edible anyway).
Like many users have said, this recipe is too watery. Cut down on the water for a more velvety texture. Decent flavor, but lacking something. Needs fiddling.
I have made this soup for years to rave reviews. It is easy to make, surpringly light, and with complex flavored. I make it exactly as is; do not skip the curry (kafir lime) leaves or the mustard seeds! -- I did this once because I didn't have them handy, and the result was very blah.
Great soup! I used a roasted fresh pumpkin, 4 cups of chicken broth, no water, and a few pinches of cayenne instead of red pepper flakes. I did not have curry leaves, but it was good without. I toasted the mustard seed in olive oil and added to soup halfway and blended everything together.
I found this to lack depth of flavour. I have an old Jamaican pumpkin soup recipe I've used for years, and thought I'd try something different. This one didn't quite do it for me. I only had dried curry leaves, so I added them to the soup for flavoring and removed them before the purée. I added hot madras curry powder in the end to bump it up a little.
i really like the way in which this recipe looks i eaten it before with my loved ones most of us enjoyed this we may have a household gathering again and cook this recipe again soon that is one tasty recipe you need to check it out i guarantee you whatever you should this its very tasty
Love this recipe. I am fortunate to get organic pumpkins and will use those for my soups. When using my own puree I use less additional liquid. But trying out other spice combinations, olive oil vs. butter, and other suggestions listed here is great! Keep suggesting!
Delicious, but as others did - I made some changes (made it a much easier recipe). Used 1 can trader joes light cocounut milk and 1 box (4cups) organic vegetable soup, no water. For spices I used: cumin, cayenne pepper (1/8tsp), mild curry powder. I used olive oil instead of butter. That's it...and I will need to make another pot for my guests tomorrow, because I'm on my 2nd bowl.
Absolutely delicious! Cooked-in a few leftover roasted sweet potato & red onion chunks from the previous night and added a little chunky applesauce & brown sugar for our taste.Didn't use all the water; added more chicken broth broth & 1/4 C water instead. Didn't have cardamom. Used a little curry powder. Puréed & returned to pot. Served with warm pita bread. Family had seconds!

"Well really I hadn't made up my mind whether we were going to go for the block or set up a return and I was more concerned with – obviously I didn't want to create a penalty on the block and so then the second thought was there is going to be somewhere around 30 seconds on the clock so if we could get maybe 10 yards on the return and then hit a couple passes, we figured we could probably get four to five plays in and maybe hit a couple of passes, and then put Casey [Barth] in a position to kick a game winning field goal and so that's when we chose to go with the return and we decided to set up the wall.
"We had done it once one other time in a game and it was there, we just didn't get to it. I had no idea that Gio [Bernard] was going to even go back in the game. I thought Roy [Smith] was going to go out there and do it and guys believed and he went out there and made it happen."
Did you assume that Roy Smith was going to return the punt and then Gio Bernard made the decision to go out there himself? How did that decision get made?
"From my understanding Gio made it. He didn't say, 'Hey coach, can I go', he went. When I turned around I just saw him waving Roy off. I think what I heard, and I don't know if this is correct because I haven't asked Gio, but I had heard that maybe T.J. Thorpe said something like 'Hey, you need to go back there' and I don't know if that's true or not, but we'll find out from him later tonight."
What was the locker room like when you addressed the team following the game?
"Before we even got to the locker room, that's what I envision a crowd like in Kenan Stadium on every Saturday. That's what it should be. That's seven Saturday's, that's what that stadium should be like and that's what it's going to be like, but that was electric and it was loud from the beginning and it was loud all the way through that last play. That's what it's supposed to be like right there.
"By the time I got into the locker room Bryn [Renner] had already presented Gio with a game ball. I didn't even know that and the guys were just excited. There were some tears shed. There were some guys that were just relieved for our seniors. They wanted it so bad for those seniors to go out with a win against State that it was really an emotional time in the locker room."
How did you make the decision to go with the new helmets?
"This was back in the summer actually. We started talking about doing something special and really it started out I wanted to do something special for these seniors that decided to stay here, because they told me, 'We've had this talk about helmets and uniforms, but we've never gotten anything.' So I wanted to do something for them so we came up with the chrome idea and then it was what do we do on the side and it took forever to get it done just to get the big Tar Heel on the side.
"The players had no idea and you guys probably don't even know they were wearing silver and blue shoes, those were brand new, but nobody noticed that. Nobody knew that they were wearing navy socks for the first time ever. None of those things were noticed and the guys were fired up because they were in the navy on navy with navy socks and new shoes and they thought they were wearing their white helmets and when they came back in the locker room I wasn't in there, but they said it was like a bunch of little kids at Christmas running around and acting crazy so it was a lot of fun for them, I know that."
The defense held N.C. State without points on 11 of its last 12 possessions, including forcing three turnovers during that stretch. Your defense gave you a chance to win the game.
"Yeah, if they wouldn't have given up those big plays it would've been a heck of a game by our defense. We made them punt nine times. We haven't done that to anybody this season and they punted nine times and then we got three turnovers. Really it would have been a heck of a showing if we don't give up the deep balls."
On Tommy Hibbard snagging a high snap that could have easily been a touchdown or safety for N.C. State:
"Play of the game. Play of the game. That's the way I looked at it. For me, it was the play of the game, because Tommy is about 5-foot-2 and the ball was up there over 10 feet and he goes up and grabs it one-handed, still gets down and still is able to get a good punt off. That kid consistently is making plays for us. He converted two two-point plays and the second one was not planned no matter what anybody tells you, but that kid has made some really big plays for us."
Have you had any discussions with Bernard about his plans following this season?
"No we haven't talked about it actually. We have been pretty much focused on each and every game so it's probably something that he and I will address after the season is over."
How do you get more consistent pressure on opposing quarterbacks?
"I'd like to do that through recruiting. We got to get more players and we got to get more guys that can come off the edge and we really need to be able to get pressure with four guys is what we need to be able to do and if you can do that then we can really become good.
"Kareem [Martin] was sick the entire game and did not play but just a few snaps so you had Jessie Rogers, a true freshman, out there playing 57 snaps and then you got Sly [Williams] on one leg. He's been on one leg for about four weeks now so it's just that time of the year. We're beat up and it's tough to get there and that's why we threw Ebron over there."
How do you balance the game with selling Carolina to recruits on visits on Saturdays?
"Our recruiting staff, on-campus staff does a great job and then what we do is once we come in from the [walkthrough] I get dressed as quickly as possible and get up to my office and then they start moving guys into my office and I'm really in there for maybe two minutes with them just thanking them for being here and we're excited to have them and then all the coaches go upstairs to the fifth floor where we keep all the guys and they spend as much time, about 30 minutes, that we try and you do the best you can. You try to stay focused on what we're there for, but at the same time recruiting is the lifeblood of the program so we got to do it and we had a lot of great players there on Saturday."
How have you adjusted the schedule this week with no game this weekend?
"Really we haven't done anything. They've been lying around in bed since the game. No, we went right back in on Sunday night and did like we've done every Sunday, put the game to bed, got all the corrections made. Then we came out and practiced on Monday, which is something we have not done the entire year. We got a practice in on Monday, we came back and practiced tonight.
"Probably got quite a bit of conditioning in actually on Monday and Tuesday and we spent more time, like today, about the first hour of practice was a lot of individual work, a lot of fundamental work and then after that we took all the younger guys and we had the 'Heel Bowl.' We scrimmaged for about an hour there as the older guys ran and got some conditioning in and then they came over and watched the game. It was lot of fun for those guys who aren't out actually getting out there on Saturday's and playing to be able to get out there and get after it in front of the coaches.
"We'll practice tomorrow and then the guys will have off Thursday, Friday and Saturday and then we'll come back in and we'll have a much more extensive practice next Sunday."
Gio Bernard
On the game:
"Yeah it was definitely exciting. I think the for the most part we wanted this for the Tar Heel nation. We wanted to win that one. Coming into this season with coach Fedora and his staff this is a game that we definitely highlighted and this is a game that we wanted to win not just for coach Fedora, but for the seniors and for this entire Tar Heel nation."
Can you take us through the punt return?
"I messed up my ankle earlier in the game so I was a little wary about getting back out there on punt return. Once I saw Coach Fedora kind of call that call I guess you could say I called myself onto the field. I told my backup punt returner let me see if I can do something with this one and I knew there was a little less time on the game clock so I figured kind of like a high risk, high reward kind of thing. I know coach Fedora may not like that too much, but I saw the ball off his foot, it was a good ball and I knew from then on it was going to be something special from there. Once I caught the ball I immediately saw a bunch of blue jerseys to my right and a bunch of red jerseys to my left and the rest is history, really."
What has allowed you to build on your success from last season?
"This guy right here, [Travis Bond]. These guys, [the offensive line]. Ever since last year we're a real veteran kind of line and kind of running back duo and they've been able to open up holes for not just me, but A.J. Blue as well and Romar Morris. Anytime any of those guys get in there they're carrying the ball, they're carrying the load and hands down these guys right here. They do such a tremendous job upfront every single day. They're grinding just as much as we are and they don't get all the praise, but they really should and this is the one opportunity that sometimes I love to kind of praise those guys because of what they've done for me."
Travis Bond
What did that game mean to you as a senior?
"Coming into my senior year a lot of guys I've been playing with, we just thought about all the times, the five straight times losing to State. We just thought it was time for that to end and make this state back Carolina blue."
What kind of challenge is it to move from guard to tackle due to Brennan Williams' injury?
"It was a challenge, because I'm so used to being a guard and looking over to my right and seeing Brennan. With him down for the rest of the season it kind of hurt me as a person, because I've been playing with him for so long. Now that I see that he's not there I feel like I owe him this, because he helped me through my time here at Carolina. So I feel like me out here playing at his position, it will just honor him and build something great to show other people that no matter where you're playing at, you just do your job and get it done."
