- Competition Clutch Single Mass Flywheel for Nissan 350Z / G35 (Non-HR)
The new Competition Clutch Single Mass Flywheels (SMF) for the Infiniti/Nissan G35/350Z (Excludes HR motors) provide high quality alternatives for customers needing to replace the factory dual-mass flywheels (DMF). The SMF alternative eliminates the use of the complex and expensive DMF.
The Competition Clutch SMFs are manufactured from nodular iron with a steel ring gear. They have been engineered to not increase noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) over the factory clutch assembly. SMFs can be resurfaced unlike the factory DMFs for long term durability.

The 1975 thriller riffed on the anxieties of suburban life.
This month, CityLab will be rounding up essential scary movies about cities—films that speak to the anxieties of urban life, showcase urban settings to terrifying effect, or forever change the way you see the cities they depict.
"What do you suppose the people are like?" Joanna Eberhart asks her husband, Walter, in the 1975 version of The Stepford Wives, as the family's wood-paneled station wagon—heavy with two kids and a dog, plus bikes strapped to the roof—trundles through their new Connecticut neighborhood.
Interactions with her neighbors turn out to raise more questions than they answer. When the women act strangely—and they often do, parroting phrases or repeating jerky movements—their husbands whisk them away.
Walter doesn't seem to mind. "Nice bunch of guys, huh?" he asks Joanna after a party.
"You serious?" she asks. "You wouldn't have given the bores the time of day in Manhattan."
This irritates Walter. "This is Stepford. This isn't New York. These are the people we have to live with."
The film, based on a 1972 bestseller from Rosemary's Baby author Ira Levin, asks what neighbors have in common, and how ideas spread and grab hold in close quarters. It came from an era that was beginning to question the great American migration to the suburbs; as Amanda Kolson Hurley has noted for Curbed, the domestic and existential crises attending the move to leafier pastures spawned a whole genre of mildly dystopian mid-century literature that dug into how suburban ennui declared itself. In the 1957 novel The Crack in the Picture Window, for instance, Mary Drone is sure that the "house she inhabited had helped spoil her day; that it was harming her marriage and corroding her life." The author, John Keats, noted that the family's experience cast an ominous tinge on Winston Churchill's famous phrase: "We shape our dwellings, and then our dwellings shape us."
That's especially true in Stepford. The longer women live there, the less they feel like themselves—they get woozy and disoriented, swooning beneath trees heavy with pink blossoms. And then, mysteriously, they transform.
Early on, Joanna has an ally in Bobbie, another newcomer who stomps through the yard hollering and waving the local gazette, which includes a blurb welcoming the Eberharts to the neighborhood. Together, they scoff at the army of Ajax-wielding automatons whose glassy eyes seem both fixed and extinguished. Bobbie thinks dangerous ideas are creeping from one house to another. "There's something in the water that turns us into housefraus, drones, whatever you want to call it," she tells Joanna. Bobbie's eyes widen. She draws quick, shallow breaths. She's heard of a chemical tranquilizer seeping into the Texas well water, and she's sure something similar is festering in Stepford.
Joanna's therapist explains that Stepford has a reputation for being unfriendly. Certain towns, she says, draw certain kinds of people. She rattles off names of towns in Massachusetts that attract artists, and one that's full of therapists. One family tells another; word spreads deliberately, via invitations passed between like-minded people. When a family chooses to move to Stepford, they aren't just putting a down payment on tidy lawns, crisp siding, and old trees. They are subscribing to a mentality.
Geography and identity do indeed intersect, as Richard Florida described in a recent post: Our political polarization is increasingly reflected in our housing choices. But in Stepford, shared ideology is an admission requirement—their "big sort" involves getting men on board with the idea of swapping their human wives for fembots, which are assembled in the local Men's Association manse.
Writing in The New York Times in 1975, Vincent Canby lamented that the film took itself too seriously, painting in broad and solemn strokes and missing opportunities for satire. "Good grief!" he wrote. "Domestic bliss suddenly becomes as pernicious as anemia."
But focusing on the trope of the unhappy housewife defangs some of the film's bite—then and now. Its true power rests in the depiction of how place can bend an individual. Maybe you adopt a new town's linguistic quirks, or pick up its recipes. Meeting neighbors may be easy, or terrifying. But nowhere other than Stepford does a new zip code so thoroughly and irreparably transform the contours of one's life and personality. When a jackhammer tears up one fembot's formerly beloved tennis court, the camera zooms in close and low. As a bulldozer shoves the upended turf, the viewer can imagine being buried alive, dirt falling in their eyes.
Joanna wants to get out. "It's about survival," she tells Walter, begging him to pack his bags. Needless to say, she doesn't escape. Lightning and thunder splinter and crack as she enters the Men's Association and comes face-to-face with her robot doppelganger. When a new place requires you to abdicate your old self, the film suggests, you're doomed.

Alumni Mothers Association Past Events
The ND-BG Alumni Mothers' Association held their annual Spring Dinner on May 15. All proceeds from the dinner will go towards the ND-BG Mothers' Scholarship Fund to be used for students at ND-BG. The dinner was opened with a prayer. There was a brief business meeting.
After the meeting fun was had by all in attendance. Dr. Paul O'Brien used Gert's book of funny stories and jokes to entertain everyone's funny bone. We had many lucky winners of the Penny Auction, and our 50/50 winner walked away with $38, hooray.
One of ND-BG's Alumni, who was in attendance, Annmarie Graybash,'92, won a gift certificate to be used at the Turf Tavern. The certificate was donated by Tom and Maria Gallant, owners of Turf Tavern in Scotia.
The event was closed with a prayer by Dr. O'Brien.
The officers and members look forward to having the new 2013 Alumni Mothers' join us at our fall mass and luncheon. The luncheon is held at the school in October, and will be catered by Center Stage Deli. Please join us in October for more fun, and try your luck at the many raffles donated by some of the area businesses.

Wukong Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
hello this is my first build and as I main with wukong i found it only fit to make a build for this champion. He is one of my favorite and in my opinion is one of the strongest champs around, maybe even stronger the fiora
early lane with wukong
wukong may not always be the best in the begging he is still strong u want early kills and minion farm so make sure to bully in the begging. the best way is to nimbus and crushing. though most wukongs decoy after that its smarter to save it because of it high cooldown early game
mid game with wukong
wunkong has now reached level 6 this is probably when he shines the most the reason why u want to buy a zeal is for the early crit. wukong can crit when using crushing blow and it wrecks enemies. using nimbus and crushing and that order may not always be effective though. if you are fighting a tank a smarter thing to do is to use crushing to reduce armor then finish with nimbus then kill him with cyclone. which leads me to another part, the higher you AD the more your cyclone will do so make sure to go high AD
late game with wukong
This is when the items you buy makes a big difference on the good wukongs to the bad now enemies can take your combo so with your frozen mallet this is when you slow them so you have time to cast another combo and finish them. with the infinity edge you should be criting at least 1.2k with crushing blow and nimbus should do a good 600 damage leaving your ulti cyclone with 600 to 800 damage a second.

TRICIA Chambers began her life heavily dependent on heroin and methadone. From there, she was peddled into child pornography, and by nine she had a full-fledged career in prostitution, alongside her mother.
Now 42, Chambers is getting what she believes to be her first real chance - in a downtown Houston cellblock.
There, in stark contrast to Chambers and the other orange-clad inmates, is Kathryn Griffin-Grinan - a former prostitute who now dons a business suit and heels as she transforms her nonprofit, We've Been There Done That, into a taxpayer-funded program that is teaming up with law enforcement and the court system to reform these women.
"You can be healed from this. You just got to be ready and want to,'' Ms Griffin-Grinan said, recalling how she went from being a college student to the lowest of street walkers.
"We just prostitutes ... nobody cares about us. Well, because I was there and I felt that same way and I broke it, I knew that I could share it and break it in others.''
The program has been so successful the Texas Legislature passed a bill this session requiring other large cities to create their own. The bill awaits Texas Governor Rick Perry's signature.
Adopted at birth, Ms Griffin-Grinan had a 28-year-old boyfriend at age 14. Two years later, she found herself among the youngest in a Houston college, racing to keep up with the drugs, alcohol and sex. In 1983, she joined funk singer Rick James' drug-infused Cold Blooded tour, developing a $30,000-a-month cocaine habit.
When the tour ended and the drugs disappeared, Ms Griffin-Grinan turned to prostitution - from call girl to mistress and finally to doped-up street hooker - to pay for the habit.
After entering and failing nearly two dozen drug rehab programs, Ms Griffin-Grinan got clean 10 years ago through Houston's drug court. From that she learned what worked, and understood what didn't, and she tailor made a curriculum for prostitutes.
"There are those who have secrets,'' Ms Griffin-Grinan explained.
"They just hold on to it, and it keeps making them sicker and sicker and sicker and sicker, and I go in...and go deep and clean it out.''
Houston, Dallas and several other Texas cities began changing how they treated prostitutes after the state Supreme Court ruled in 2010 that girls 14 and under could not be prosecuted for prostitution. The ruling has been a game changer, for juveniles and adults.
Dallas and Houston are among the cities nationwide that have set up special courts to deal with child prostitutes by putting them in recovery programs. Many, they found, had been victims of sexual or physical abuse. Some were born to mothers who were drug addicts and prostitutes themselves. Others were sold to a pimp, sometimes in exchange for a box of cigarettes.
In Houston, the court, called GIRLS or Growing Independence and Restoring Lives, was loosely modelled after other specialty courts, such as the drug court that has successfully reformed 80 per cent of the nearly 400 people who have graduated since it started in 2003, including Griffin.
In September, Harris County law enforcement focused on adults, teaming with Ms Griffin-Grinan. Judges began in January sentencing women with numerous misdemeanour prostitution convictions to her program.
Working with a $US40,000 ($43,000) a year budget, more than 30 women have been sentenced to the program, and only one or two have relapsed so far, though it is too early to measure success. The program is unique not only because it is court-ordered - unlike other private projects - but also treats the women after their release, sometimes for up to two years.
District Court Judge Maria T. Jackson has sentenced 20 women to the program, working closely with Ms Griffin-Grinan to monitor their treatment.
"Society has not been addressing the problems of the prostitutes and the women who come in for possession of controlled substance and theft. They've been locking them up when they should be dealing with the other, the underlying issues, which are the majority of these girls come from abused homes,'' Judge Jackson said.
"They are the victims and they've been treated like criminals,'' she added.
When they're released, Ms Griffin-Grinan first takes the women shopping, "cause all they have is hooker clothes,'' she said. Some go to drug rehab or a halfway house. Many require job training. And all must attend Ms Griffin-Grinan's external workshop every Wednesday for at least 18 months.
Ms Griffin-Grinan said most programs ban cursing and require participants to sit nicely, but she found that doesn't work with women like Ms Chambers who were initiated into the culture at a young age.
"I accept them for who they are. They come in, they call body parts what they called them in the street. At first they say 'b***h, ho.' I get to see who they really are and who they were ... and then I know how to start tapering it down,'' said Ms Griffin-Grinan.
Chambers said her mother was an international prostitute who got her into the sex business when she was nine. Talking about it was difficult, and in church she felt like she had a "scarlet letter.''
Recently, some of those videos resurfaced online and she was asked to identify them for police. She was in a period of drug recovery, but seeing the films made her relapse, she said, leading to her fifth arrest in Texas in seven years.
Now, with the support from Ms Griffin-Grinan and the other women in her group, she has hope she won't roll back to a life of getting high and selling her body.
"I mean you just can't get out, but this program right here shows you how to get out cause it makes us worthy that we are women,'' Chambers said.
"We're not just a piece of meat, that we're women and I've gotten a lot of hope.''

And thats not extremely important. The skype calls over voice instead of data seems to be a big hoax. I mainly use google voice for texts, so as I see it if I was on a call, I wouldnt receive the google voice text as its coming over as data? Yea, those are about the only reasons keeping me from going with Verizon.

3 Things You May Have Missed in CTS' First Year
One year ago today we officially launched Customers That Stick! Being part of a strong blog community (or many communities, if that is the way you like to view it), it is easy to forget that not everyone has been around since the beginning.
We've gained many new readers over the past year, and we thought it would be great to provide a brief recap and overview of the site for those who have joined the ride mid-stream.
To begin, this post tells about the launch of Customers That Stick.
Also, you can connect with us further by subscribing to Customers That Stick via RSS and by following us on the following social channels:
Google +
And finally, here are the three pieces of content that we think are core to the experience and community here. This content is foundational to the CTS message and brand and will inform both what we do and how we do it as we enter our second year!
1. One eBook
In our first month, we launched an eBook that details some of the most important things that customer service experts know and use in the field. 7 Secret Customer Service Techniques Every Expert Knows was written for anyone (and everyone) who contributes to the customer experience. The techniques can be applied using any budget, and most of the content can be implemented right away.
We've had almost 1,000 downloads so far and have received some fantastic feedback on how the content has been used by our readers. If you haven't had the chance yet, please sign up for The Customer Conversation and to get a copy of 7 Secret Customer Service Techniques Every Expert Knows.
2. One Killer Crowdsourced Post
When we launched CTS, we gathered insights from 19 different experts in small business, customer service and marketing on what customer service meant to them. The post What Is Customer Service? still ranks among the first results in Google for the phrase "what is customer service?" It is an enlightening post, with excellent insights related to the conceptual basis of customer service. Recently, we repurposed this post via Slideshare for a more digestible view of the customer service wisdom from these great minds.
3. One Customer Service Hero
You hear terms like "First-Class Customer Service" and "Gold Star Service" that describe what great customer service looks like. There is more to great customer service than just giving it a name, so we gave it an identity in our posts What Is Hero-ClassTM Customer Service? Part 1 and Part 2.
We hope you enjoyed the recap above! A huge thank you to everyone who is a part of this community and who helped make our first year at CTS such a resounding success!
If you have any suggestions on how we can better add value in our second year, please feel free to Contact Us or to leave a comment below!

With its ability to create a global legal risk exposure, combined with contradicting rights and duties, and limited enforcement possibilities, the Internet has created a unique environment where persons and corporations legitimately can question whether they should comply with all the laws that apply to them. Focussing on the role of globally active Internet intermediaries, this article attempts to tackle this issue by discussing the potential for, and potential features of, an international law doctrine of selective legal compliance.

Oscar was an Internet sensation [in Spring 2008], appearing in a video that spread around the world like, well, a virus. I had the privilege of visiting Oscar one afternoon with Pamela Quirin, my friend who volunteers at the Broward County Humane Society. Oscar, a female Moluccan cockatoo, resides at the Broward County Humane Society (BCHS) in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and lives with psittacine beak & feather disease (PBFD). Employees at BCHS originally didn? give her more than six months to live when she first came to them. That was more than 12 years ago. Oscar came to BCHS when she was turned over to the Broward County Wildlife Care Center after a rescue confiscation in 1996.
According to Patricia Cooprider, a Vet Tech for the BCHS, "She was found living in a barbeque grill.?Oscar is the toast of BCHS. She has three heat lamps, a playgym, a small bath bowl and toys that are regularly rotated. She resides in the hub of the staff? side of the building near the cattery and examination rooms. She greets and playfully interacts with everyone who works there until her bedtime, when she is placed in her covered cage and rolled into a quiet, warm office.
Oscar? featherless body is unsettling at first. But her charm and quirky "Mick Jagger Strut?(normal for a cockatoo but odd looking when performed by a bird with no feathers) wins you over. Oscar and I began talking, which quickly escalated into Oscar conducting a "scream fest?until she was quietly told she was "scaring the kitties?and she settled down.
Due to Oscar? PBFD status, I dressed in a white "clean suit.?My moon suit didn? seem to bother Oscar at all. Rather, she appeared to be fascinated, following me around on her cage and repeatedly offering her foot for a Step up. I was captivated by this active, enthusiastic and bright- eyed little girl. She is a charismatic, busy bird who is very well loved by all of her friends. PBFD has not prevented Oscar from enjoying her life at all.
Bio-Security To Protect The Flock
In preparing for my visit to Oscar, I followed protocol recommended by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) for health care workers exposed to avian influenza, as well as protective methods recommended the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). I had professional help designing my biosecurity protocol from Dr. Robert Schachner DVM, of Hollywood, Florida, who provided me with Nolvasan?(chlorhexidine diacetate), and I consulted with Dr. Sam Backos of Deerfield Beach, Florida. With their assistance, the suggestions of Phoenix Landing Volunteers, and Shari Mirojnick, a veteran of California? Exotic Newcastle Disease outbreak and a vet tech, I came up with a bio-security regimen I termed, "Parker? Protocol,?named after Parker, one of my African greys. With their guidance, I felt that these measures would be sufficient in protecting my mature greys from exposure; not only to PBFD but from secondary conditions Oscar may have developed. This included parking at least 50 feet away from the building where Oscar lives, and wearing disposable non- breathable "clean suits?with attached hoods and booties used in fiberglass installation. Pamela and I stressed not exposing our shoes to possible contamination.
We changed into the "clean suits?before entering the building and covered the interior of Pamela? automobile with plastic. After leaving, we sprayed down our suits with a Nolvasan solution, followed by a diluted-bleach solution. We removed them and placed them in a plastic, sealed garbage bag, which was then disposed of. We then sprayed our clothes with Nolvasan followed by the bleach solution and donned two new clean suits to avoid contaminating Pamela? car. Once we reached Pamela? home (she has no birds), she carefully removed the plastic from the car? interior, and we removed our second set of clean suits, which we bagged and threw out along with our clothing and footwear.
Decontamination included long, hot, thorough showers, three shampoos, using a nail brush under our fingernails and scrubbing the bottoms of our feet with a brush. We flushed our eyes, noses and ears with flushing solution, and brushed our teeth followed by a hydrogen-peroxide rinse. I swabbed my face and neck with alcohol, drove home in my uncontaminated car, and took yet another shower at a neighbor? house before entering my home. The decontamination process was lengthy and strenuous.
Was the biosecurity practice Pam and I adhered to entirely necessary? Probably not. It was designed more for avoiding viral contact and removing any possible shedding of the viral particulate matter to ourselves rather than to eradicate it, as PBFD is a rather durable and naturally resistant virus. "Parker? Protocol?may be extreme, but it provided me with the security in knowing I had done all I could to prevent PBFD from entering my home.


text: A few months back, I got an email from DJ Lavan, a Richmond music lover who had just started K&B Music, a booking, promotion, and management company for musical talent in and around RVA. I was instantly interested in what DJ's new company was attempting to accomplish because we both appear to have the same attitude about abundance of diverse musical talent in RVA. Last night I was finally able to catch up with DJ at K&B's first Richmond Showcase at the Canal Club. The showcase featured: Carl Anderson (Not Pictured), The WeatherVanes (Washington DC), Mojoceratops (Philly), Trees on Fire (Charlottesville), and RVA's own Dan.K D and Marionette. The night was a celebration for K&B and chance for most of the K&B family to meet each other and hang out. DJ told me that the K&B stands for Kindness and Balance. "I am just trying to see the local music scene grow and put talented acts in the right place to be successful." So far, the response has been overwhelming. DJ mentioned last night that the K&B Family stretches from Philly to Georgia and is growing daily. Check out my photos from the K&B showcase by clicking HERE.

Our new rescue dog from the humane society. His name is Harley and is a 6 year old yellow lab. He stole our heart there. He got up on his hindlegs and put his paws on my oldest dd's shoulder the rested his head on her shoulder like he was giving a hug. He is a very sweet boy and must have been in a family before he was a stray. I made the small tags with some stamps. The line of paper and embellies came from Walmart, super cheap.

It's the morning of the finals. I've already heard this platitude chirped around the contest site about fourteen times today and it's only 7:45 in the morning. Can we come up with something else to say on Finals Day?
But I'll admit, the buzz around the beach this morning is especially electrifying. The the crowning of both a Men's and Women's Quik/Roxy Pro champ is looking likely as we have a full day of competition in store. Heat 2 of the Men's Quarters are in the water right now, with Wilko facing off against A.D.S.Parko will not see a hometown win in 2016. Photo: Hammonds Filipe Toledo, manhandling Snapper Rocks like he's done it before. Because well, he has. Photo: Hammonds
The first heat of the day saw local favorite Joel Parko fall just short to the ever-possessed Filipe Toledo. Parko lacked rhythm, and the stat of the heat would have to be the fact that after caching eleven waves, only five of them ventured north of the one point mark for Parko.Adriano takes a Quarterfinal finish with grace. Photo: Hammonds
8:20am – I'm not a gambling man, but I'm thinking about starting. Matt Wilkinson just took down world champ Adriano De Souza and if you would have put a few bucks on all these upsets you'd be laughing your way to the bank right about now.The bang behind Wilko's 6.33 for the win. Photo: Hammonds
In the dying seconds, Wilko needed a high five and rolled himself into a 6.33 filled with that backhand spice we love oh so much. The emotion was real as he made his way to shore and at the drop of the score over the speaker, Wilkinson clenched his fists let out a genuine battle cry. Goosebumps.Stu Kennedy, not far from a Final. Photo: Sherm
10:00am – Well wasn't that eventful!? So, where to start… Well the Men's Quarters kicked off with a bang and an upset, only to be followed by Kolohe Andino taking down Ace Buchan and then the heat of the morning, Mr. Stu Kennedy defeating young JJf.John, defeated. Photo: Sherm
John had Stu by the short hairs in the final minutes, but Stu's relentless forehand attack got the better of a clean wall with only seconds left and deliver an 8.1. Clutch and composed, can we get this get on tour for good?
10:40 – As of now, Filipe Toledo is squaring up with Matt Wilkison in Semi number one and it looks as though he's injured himself. On his opening wave, a dicey landing sent a shock up his back and he paddled his way back up the point cringing and sluggish. But the kid's a fighter, and although injured, Fil took off on his next wave and dished out a breezy 7.1.Filipe Toledo, pain in the eyes. Photo: Hammonds
Matt Wilkinson found the score he needed to take back the lead and was able to hold it as Fil scowered for a wave in very visible pain. The horn blows, Wilko wins. And the first exchange to occur between the two is a check-in, Fil paddles over to give congratulations and Matty make sure he's all good. World class surfers, amazing sportsmen. Fingers crossed that Fil's injury is nothing too serious.Tyler Wright, strong. Photo: Hammonds And then this happened. Photo: Sherm
1:00pm – "Gold jersey, green jersey who gives a shit!"
Yes. Matt Wilkinson just won his first ever CT victory here at the 2016 Quik Pro Gold Coast and then quoted Happy Gilmore publicly immediately after. Wilko took his win over American Kolohe Andino in a back and forth, forehand/backhand Final that ended with the drop of a score that fell just short for Kolohe. Willy throws his fists into the air, and just like that he's stolen the gold jersey going into Bells.Photo: Sherm
The women's Final saw Tyler Wright against California Courtney Conlogue, an Aussie-Californian trend that continued. This win comes with extraordinary emotion for Tyler as it's been a long few months of caring for her brother, Owen, who endured a brutal injury at Pipeline in December.Photo: Sherm
Allegedly, Tyler's specific instructions to Owen were to NOT come down and watch the contest today and stay home to rest. But as Tyler was being chaired up the beach, younger brother Mikey points up to the VIP scaffolding. Tyler looks up, only to see Owen smiling down at her. The two greet with a long, sincere hug, there are smiles, tears, and once again, goosebumps.Photo: Sherm
Wilko is currently on stage pouring Corona all over everyone it's just about the funnest end to the 2016 Quik and Roxy Pro Gold Coast that you could ever possibly imagine.

Director Dee Rees On Making Southern Culture Come To Life in 'Mudbound'
The film hits Netflix on Friday.
Blac Chyna has been spending a lot of time keeping up with — or, rather, infiltrating — her fiancé Rob Kardashian's family, so it's about time that her husband-to-be and baby's father spent some time with her hers.
The couple are in Chyna's hometown of Washington, D.C. for the holiday weekend, where they had some quality time with her mother Shalana Hunter and father Eric Holland, as well as her childhood friends. But that's not all: the parents-to-be hit a major pregnancy milestone over the weekend as well!
Chyna shared some an adorable picture of Rob with her family on Instagram:
She then posted a crazy-looking video of Rob revealing that he felt their baby move for the first time:
I mean...how can that not give you all the feels? This couple seems to be getting cuter by the day, so we can't imagine what it will be like when little Baby Kardashian, whose gender has not yet been revealed, finally arrives.
Meanwhile, it seems like Blac isn't slowing down one bit for pregnancy. Watch her get a lap dance from Mariah Carey with BET Breaks, above.

Indian Chicken Korma Curry
Posted By Savita
Chicken Korma, an aromatic authentic mild Indian Chicken curry cooked with spices, yogurt and a hint of cream, served with fragrant Basmati Rice.. A restaurant-style spiced Indian chicken dinner in comfort of your home!
I'm sure you agree, Chicken Korma is everyone's favorite chicken curry in Indian restaurants. Specially because even though it has beautiful flavor of spices, it's not overwhelming hot curry..... in simple words, it is completely suitable for mild and delicious weekday chicken dinner.
Oh! - Did I tell you? It only needs 25 minutes of cooking time! Just like you, I'm generally busy during the weekdays and often want to cook something quick, easy, and flavorful for dinner. Clearly, quick and easy for me and flavorful for Vishal ;-) Or.... no matter how good cook I'm.... he will insist to eat out the next day. ;)
Korma Sauce
If you don't know already, than I must tell you that all Indian Curries, specially the ones served in restaurants are prepared based on pre-made sauces. If you are new to Indian cooking but like Indian food, I'm sure you will be no stranger to buying curry sauce from store and using it in homemade curries. Of course, other than eating in Indian Restaurants. ;)
Chicken Korma Curry also uses a curry sauce base which I have prepared from scratch. Now, the best part? You can even make this sauce a day or even week in advance! Making Korma Sauce over the weekend and using it for weekday dinner works best for me! Exciting, isn't it? Honestly, if you have sauce ready, this Chicken Korma Dinner will fly from kitchen to dinner table!!
First time when I served Chicken Korma to few of my guests.... All they wanted to know is: What brand of Korma Sauce do you use? I was like, "What is Korma Curry Sauce?! I prepared it from scratch at home!" After finding one brand of Korma Sauce packet in store one day, I realized what do they mean by Korma Curry Sauce!
So, here you have it! Authentic Chicken Korma Sauce ready to dazzle your Indian Curry Dinner, quickly and easily..... any day of the week! And flavor!! Bowl-licking good! I promise!
Since I'm sharing the authentic recipe, so I have used all whole spices as added in traditional Chicken Korma. However, don't worry if you can't find all spices.... You can also replace whole spices with additional Garam Masala.
Freeze Instructions:
Also, cooked Chicken Korma Curry can be frozen, just after fresh cooking... for up-to one month. If you wish to freeze, just keep in mind following few important points:
1) Only use fresh chicken. Don't re-freeze thawed chicken used for Chicken Korma Curry.
2) Freeze in small portions to keep reheating easier. Never freeze a big portion as will need more time to thaw and can get easily ruined due to excessive heat.
3) The best way to thaw Chicken Curry? If you have time, take it out of freezer and put it in refrigerator before you leave for work. Or place the frozen Chicken curry packet in warm water while rice are boiling.
Whether you decide to make Chicken Korma fresh on weekdays or freeze it for an instant dinner..... I'm sure you will love your kitchen filled with spice-aroma like an Indian Restaurant.... and your pocket will love you too for saving so much money!! :)
Wish you all a great day! -Savita

2. While onion saute, in mortar pestle add all dried whole spices (black pepper corns, cloves, fennel seeds, and mace blade) and crush to make coarse powder. Set aside.
Additional NotesIf can't find whole spices, just use powder 1/4 tsp of each.
3. Once onions are light brown, add ginger and garlic paste (or grated) and cook stirring often for 1 minutes.4. Now add all Korma Curry Spices, tomato paste, and salt and then cook stirring often for 1 minute.
Additional NotesFor Korma Curry Sauce, after this step, put all pan ingredients in blender, blend until smooth. Transfer to container with lid and refrigerate. Read more in (Notes) below.
5. Chicken Korma - Add chicken pieces, and cook with spices for 5 minutes.6. Then add yogurt, a tablespoon at a time and keep stirring after each addition. Once yogurt is all mixed in chicken and has started bubbling, add 2 tablespoon heavy cream and stir well.
7. Now add, 1 cup water and mix well. Bring the mix to boil, then reduce heat to medium and cook covered for 8-10 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.8. Mix in remaining one tablespoon cream. Taste and adjust salt. Garnish with cilantro. Serve hot with side of rice or Indian Naan bread. Enjoy!
Savita's Notes:
Can't find all spices? You can skip all whole spices and add one teaspoon additional Garam Masala. Make sure to adjust the heat of pepper as per taste.
For Korma Curry Sauce, after step 5, put all pan ingredients in blender with yogurt, blend until smooth. Transfer to container with lid and refrigerate. Cook chicken with sauce in heated skillet with 1-2 teaspoon fresh oil, then continue with step 7.
Please note, provided list of spices and onion-ginger mix is only good for 4 a small quantity of sauce. If only making Curry Sauce for later use, I usually double or triple the sauce ingredients.

Steven from Ft Myers Fl writes,
I am mixing Tempo 1% dust with water to spray in a hose end sprayer. How much do I need to use?
Tempo 1% Dust should NOT be mixed with water and applied through any spraying equipment. You should only dust cracks and crevices using a dust applicator such as the B&G Bulb Duster 1150. We do carry liquid concentrates that can be applied using a hose end sprayer.

AllSwell is a passion project launched to encourage creativity in all its forms. It's the brainchild of Laura Rubin, founder and creative director of the communications agency Left Left Right (LLR) Consulting.
While the world has become undeniably digital, research shows that putting pen to paper is linked to increased wellbeing, and basically a boosted brain. It is physiologically, emotionally and mentally beneficial. (For the curious, read more here.)
Born from a morning surf check with uninspiring results, Rubin decided to sit on the beach and journal instead. "Swell or no swell, all's well." As an inveterate scribbler and journal-keeper, Rubin wanted to invite more people to reap its benefits.
Take a moment to express yourself in an utterly private way. No "likes", no judgments. Just you, your ideas, pen, and paper. Creativity unplugged.

Exclusive Biomass Investment in Brazil
PROJECT LAUNCH Energy Crops Brazil (ECB) is a Brazilian agribusiness & renewables company that develops Biomass for Energy projects focused on Giant Carajas Grass, a high yield biomass variety of Elephant Grass.
Giant Carajas Grass (Elephant Grass) represents the state of the art agribusiness from both agricultural and industrial perspectives. Intense research and years of market experience have brought Elephant Grass into a high degree of efficacy in achieving high yield biomass production.
Embrapa (the Brazilian Agriculture and Livestock Research Company) and Matsuda (a company with considerable expertise in seeds and plant genetics) have developed Elephant Grass to a point where it is possible to achieve from 40 to 80 tonnes of dry mass per hectare, per year. The crop is fully established after 6 months.
This is a high yield Giant Carajas Grass plantation project, benefiting from short, medium and long-term profits secured with leasehold land titles. ECB's professional plantation management team is led by the Agribusiness Director Carlos Duarte, along with highly skilled agronomy engineering from third party technology suppliers Netafim (the Israeli irrigation experts, present in some 83 countries), Matsuda (seeds and plant genetics), Eletrovale (turnkey irrigation and infrastructure provider) and IFCE (a renowned local agronomy school).
In the "Tabuleiros de Russas" Irrigated District, all infrastructures, facilities and licensing are already in place, as well as a water guarantee: in average, ECB land has 1.3 liters per second per hectare available each 24hrs.
The project is located on the border of a main asphalted road (BR116) directly connecting Ceará with all the major cities in Brazil, such as São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.
Giant Carajas Grass (Elephant grass) enjoys a wide variety of applications apropos at least five consolidated and growing markets: these being mainly, though not exclusively, centered on Brazil, Europe and the US:
· Animal feedstock
Elephant grass varieties are commonly used in a cut-and carry system which makes for a feedstock that can be fed in stalls as it is highly palatable at the leaf stage. It can also be made into high quality silage with the use of additives.
· Biomass pellets and briquettes
Elephant Grass achieves 40-80 tonnes of dry mass per hectare per year (TDM/ha/y) which a much higher yield when compared to Eucalyptus (mainly used in Brazil to produce cellulose and charcoal). Eucalyptus delivers up to 20 (TDM/ha/y).
· Activated carbon
Activated carbon can also be made out of Elephant qflbg Grass biomass. There are various types: fine powder, pills or flakes. Activated carbon is used to bleach and absorb odor in sugar industry, to produce cooking oil in food industry and also for water purification. It also has a variety applications, including in gas-purifying industries, where it is found in air purifiers and poisonous gas preventers.
· Bio-Ethanol
Applying second generation cellulosic technologies make it possible to obtain up to 100 us gallons of bio-fuels per each tonne of dry mass. With Elephant Grass biomass yields, over 15.000 liters of bio-ethanol, per hectare, per year, can be achieved.
Giant Carajas Grass, a high-yield dedicated energy crop operates as a low carbon, renewable replacement for coal to generate electricity and heat and as a nonfood feedstock for second-generation liquid biofuels that can act to replace fossil fuels such as gasoline and diesel fuel.
Energy Crops Brazil also manufactures and sells Giant Carajas Grass Pellets.
Biomass is carbon neutral. It is a renewable energy source that comes from plant material such as Giant Carajas Grass. Photosynthesis converts solar energy and carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into plant material. Burning plant material in a power plant releases the carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere, but it is reabsorbed again when the next crop grows making the process carbon neutral.
Biomass is an important renewable energy source for both developing and industrialized countries. Heavy dependence on coal and imported petroleum has led to a major increase in global carbon dioxide emissions and to significant geopolitical, economic and environmental issues.
Giant Carajas Grass can be burned-either directly or in pellet form as a replacement for coal or oil in electric-power plants to produce low-carbon electricity and useful heat. It can also be used to produce bio methane in anaerobic digesters.
Giant Carajas Grass can be used as a feedstock to make Grassoline, liquid transportation biofuels such as cellulosic ethanol, butanol and green gasoline and to produce biochemical and bio- plastics.
Giant Carajas Grass is a non-food crop and can be grown on marginal lands which are not used for growing food. Utilizing food crops to produce biofuel is discouraged in almost all countries around the globe.
Giant Carajas Grass is low cost because of its extremely high yield and meets the cost targets of green energy applications. Electricity produced from burning Giant Carajas Grass comes at roughly a quarter of the cost of electricity from solar energy and half the cost of wind energy. Furthermore, Giant Carajas Grass and other biomass power plants can operate 24 hours a day, whereas solar and wind produce electricity only when it is sunny or windy.
Giant Carajas Grass pellets can be used to replace up to 20% of coal in existing power plants. This reduces carbon emissions by 20% while preserving the large capital investment and allows power companies to meet carbon dioxide emissions reduction requirements over the next 10 to 30 years.
Energy Crops Brazil is focusing its efforts on two complementary areas of research and operation:
a) The production of Giant Carajas Grass, a high yield energy crop, combined with
b) Cost efficient industrial processing into Biomass Pellets.
For this purpose, direct and extensive cooperation on technological research is being developed with relevant research institutions including:
· EMBRAPA (the worldwide operating Brazilian Research Company on Agriculture and Livestock)
· Matsuda (the renowned research and commercial company on seeds and plants genetics)
· UECE (Ceará State University)
· FAEC (Federation of Agriculture in Ceará State)
· UFP (Piauí Federal University)
· IFCE (Federal Institute of Ceará, linked with agriculture know-how within "Tabuleiro de Russas" Irrigated District)
· IPT (Institute for Technological Research, from Vicente Mazzarella, in São Paulo).
· Verde Vida (environmental engineering)

Bands come and go; Butthole Surfers rarities are forever. This one is especially mysterious.
The April 1987 issue of SPIN gave it one sentence, in between items about the Fat Boys' upcoming feature film Disorderlies and Bob Stinson's recent firing from the Replacements:
Sandra Bernhardt [sic] has teamed with pals the Butthole Surfers to desecrate Heart's "Barracuda."
Not much, but it's more than you would have learned from the Buttholes' interview with Blatch, which ended like this:
I saw Sandra Bernhardt [sic] on David Letterman and she said she hung out with you g—(Tape Ends)
Though it's possible the Butthole Surfers biography that came out last year has more details about the Bernhard-Buttholes relationship, above are the scant facts in my possession touching on this 30-year-old event. Since then, Bernhard has covered Heart's "Alone" (with Winger!) and spoken of her love for the Wilson sisters. She apparently recorded two versions of the vocal to the Buttholes' "Barracuda," one in English and one in Spanish. If either has ever surfaced on a bootleg, it's news to me.
This August, however, DM friend Brian Turner played pristine audio of the Spanish version of "Barracuda" on his WFMU show. Listen to it here. Toward the end of the Late Night clip below, Sandra Bernhard tells David Letterman about hanging out with the Butthole Surfers in Texas, as reported in Blatch #14.
