GE Aviation, which has 2,600 employees in the Dayton area, has been selected for negotiations on developing engine technology for the U.S. Air Force.
The technology is not for a production engine, but is a demonstration program that has no announced fighter application yet, a GE Aviation spokesman said. The program will enable GE to address the Air Force's propulsion needs for improved fuel burn for combat aircraft beyond 2020, the company said.
Development work for what's called the "Adaptive Engine Technology Development program" will be conducted in the company's headquarters in Evendale, Ohio. The program focuses on technology for future strike, bomber and tactical aircraft.
Once negotiations are complete and the contract is awarded, GE said it will share the costs of the program with the Air Force.
GE Aviation has 1,400 employees at three local sites — two in Vandalia as well as Unison Industries in Beavercreek — and 9,000 employees in Ohio overall. Counting a credit card operation in Kettering, GE has 2,600 local employees, the company has said.
The company is also building a $50 million, 120,000-square-foot Electrical Power Integrated Systems Research and Development Center (EPISCENTER) on the University of Dayton campus off River Park Drive.

GlimmerBlocker: a more stable ad-blocker
Download for OSX 10.7, 10.8 and 10.9: GlimmerBlocker-1.5.3.dmg (release notes). To use with 10.9: reinstall GlimmerBlocker after upgrading OSX. When the GlimmerBlocker installer asks to install Java 6, let it install it and then relaunch the GlimmerBlocker installer. (Java 6 includes a library which isn't included in OSX and which newer java versions need). You might have to install the public java runtime.
Download for OSX 10.5 and 10.6: GlimmerBlocker-1.4.16.dmg (release notes).
When installing GlimmerBlocker, you might be prompted to install Java. Some users need to re-run the GlimmerBlocker installer after the java installer is done.
Easy to uninstall if you don't like it anyway.
GlimmerBlocker is free: No payments required, but please help spread the word as ad-based sites would very much like to keep it a secret:
Screenshots gallery and detailed installation help.
Parental controls: There is a bug in Lion's parental controls, which breaks using any kind of http proxy. You need to report this problem to Apple as they're the only one who can fix the bug. The more reports, the more likely Apple is to fix the bug.
There exist no version of GlimmerBlocker for 10.4 (Tiger).
About GlimmerBlocker
The problem with other ad-blockers for Safari is that they are implemented as awful hacks: as an InputManager and/or ApplicationEnhancer. This compromises the stability of Safari and very often create problems when Apple releases a new version of Safari. Snow Leopard doesn't support the InputManager-based blockers when Safari runs in 64-bit mode.
GlimmerBlocker is implemented as an http proxy, so the stability of Safari isn't compromised because it doesn't use any hacks. It is even compatible with all other browsers and other native Mac OS X applications which uses http, e.g. NetNewsWire. The proxy runs on the mac and not on a central server like most proxies.
You'll always be able to upgrade Safari without breaking GlimmerBlocker (or waiting for a new release); and you'll be able to upgrade GlimmerBlocker without upgrading Safari. This makes it much easier to use the beta versions of Safari and especially the nightly builds of WebKit.
Because GlimmerBlocker doesn't hack Safari, there is a few things it isn't able to do: adding a block by right-clicking an image, stopping pop-unders, and filtering cookies from 3rd party sites. But you win a lot in stability, and GlimmerBlocker provides much easier methods for adding your own modifications to pages by adding css rules, pieces of Javascript or by transforming the html before Safari receives it. So I'll hope you're happy with the tradeoff.
If you can program in Javascript you'll be able to add your own modification to pages. See the included filters for examples, e.g. adding a download link to YouTube.
Guido's description of GlimmerBlocker in German, and Fingster Kevin's description and filter for Chinese users.
Share your filters
A set of default filters for common worldwide ad-providers are included in GlimmerBlocker. So out-of-the box it blocks most ads. If you still see ads on common, high-traffic sites, please notify me so the filters can be improved.
You can create your own filters and publish them using MobileMe or plain WebDav so other users can subscribe to your filter.
See the list of filters which other users have published.
You can setup iPhone/iPod to use GlimmerBlocker when they're using wifi.
How to develop advanced filters
In addition to just blocking ads, GlimmerBlocker can add css or javascript to the pages, can modify the content using Javascript, can modify the request before GlimmerBlocker sends it to the remote server, can specify which dns-server or http/socks5 proxy that GlimmerBlocker must use when fetching that specific URL.
- request & response flow
- modify content before Safari receives it.
- keyword expansion
- object reference
- proxies and dynamic dns configuration.
- Tips & Tricks
Application workarounds
The following applications needs workarounds or configured:
- Google Drive is buggy and the usual workarounds doesn't work, only a single non-recommended hack does.
- Firefox works fine with GlimmerBlocker, but since it doesn't use the system-wide proxy settings for Mac OS X by default, you need to configure Firefox manually.
- configure Little Snitch.
- setup Microsoft Messenger.
- workaround for Norton Live Update.
- workaround for TinyGrab.
- OpenDNS and IPv6 for e.g. ipv6.google.com
- Miro doesn't work with proxies. See Miro bug #7061
Very short FAQ.
GlimmerBlocker is fully open source and is licensed using GPLv3. You can download the source, make your own modifications, submit changes, etc.
Older versions can be found in the downloads directory. Sparkle uses two rss feeds: official releases and beta releases. Even though the rss feeds includes a link to the new version, the easiest method to update GlimmerBlocker is to open the "System Preferences", choose GlimmerBlocker and click "check now" in the "Setup" tab pane.

We have added the following products to your shopping cart from a previous visit:
Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
Bella's Garden Shiraz is black to the core. Very perfumed with lovely red fruits including subtle raspberries, five spice, cedar and sandlewood. Juicy red fruits burst onto the palate and roll on and on, balanced with fine tannins and subtle oak. This wine has great length and an elegant framework.
"Dark ruby. Spicy cherry and dark berry aromas are complemented by an exotic Indian spice quality. Chewy, round and nicely concentrated, with sweet, focused black and blue fruit compote flavors lifted by tangy acidity. Appealingly sweet on the youthfully tannic finish, which leaves allspice, blueberry and bitter chocolate notes behind. Shows the best traits of this difficult Barossa vintage and might surprise with its ability to age." 91 Points International Wine Cellar

About Me Parent
Comments about Battery Operated Portable Black Light:
These were wonderful. We used them in our Trunk or Treat for Halloween at our church. We created a blacklight universe in the campered bed of our truck. It could not have worked out better! It looked SO AWESOME and I could not have been more pleased. The only draw back was that they were small so I orded plenty of them to place in the truck. But really, it wasn't a drawback because I was able to place them in different areas and it gave me more control of the effect. They were perfect. I can't wait to throw a blacklight party now!!!!!

Decent for size
By KayKay
from Baltimore, MD
Ordered a few of these for a dance-party themed team at Relay for Life. They worked well, just were too small for what we needed. Would probably order more if holding this event again.

Roll me Over, Baby's Coming Out!
Birth doesn't SOUND funny, does it? (Unless you say it out loud three time, and then it kind of does. ) And it sure as heck doesn't SEEM funny when you're in the middle of it. But looking back, there are moments that can draw a smile, or even a guffaw.
With my third baby, born four years ago, I was feeling pretty cocky. The second one came out without a hitch at a maternity center, three hours and done. I hadn't even had time to get into the soaking tub I so desperately wanted to claim as an experience. (Not as a water birth, though those are cool too, but just to HANG OUT.)
So, Bebe 3, how hard could it be, I figured? I always ran late with babies, so when my husband reminded me he had a trip to Russia scheduled two weeks before my due date, I greenlighted it. The trip had been in the works before I was even pregnant, and I didn't want to be the one to tank it.
The night before his departure, we walked around and ate Indian food (though not simultaneously) in an effort to get the baby born before he left. It SEEMED like a good idea, though it hits me now: he probably wouldn't have left me with a two-hour old.
Water still intact, I put him on a plane and set into nesting. It was easter weekend, and my mom and MIL watched with alarm as I did Every. Single. Dish. In my mother's house.
But the baby hung in there. I picked up my husband at 9pm on Sunday night, and, great, amazing wife that I am, I promised to take the older kids to school in the morning. We passed out.
Of course, you know the rest. I wake up at 5am in some pretty serious labor. "Honey???" I whisper. "Honey??? I'm really sorry, but I'm so not taking the kids to school... we gotta go have the baby now."
"Haha, NOT FUNNY." Came from under the pillow, at which point my saintly patience fell by the wayside and we busted a move for the maternity center.
We'd spoken to the midwife on call en route, but beat her there due to DC traffic. The receptionist fluttered around nervously, saying, "They TOLD me they'd tell me where they kept the babycatching gloves some day, but I don't know yet…"
"Just please, START THE WATER." I said, determined to not miss my window of bath this time. (I did get in there for two minutes, then decided I hated it.)
The midwife got there in time, and two hours later, I yelled, "ROLL ME OVER! THE BABY'S COMING OUT! GRAB A LEG, YOU! SURF ON OUT, LITTLE BABY! YEEHAW!!!"
And he did!!! All 6.6 pounds of him.
You gotta admit, that's pretty funny.
Tune in to the new unscripted series "One Born Every Minute." Premieres Tuesday, February 1 at 10 pm et/pt on Lifetime.

I had hoped to sneak a few Bionicle characters into the reality Fighters demo, but if there's a way to do it, I cant figure it out. My best guess is to paint someones face with a kopaka mask and then take their picture. |

Haywood Community College remains hopeful that the county will increase funding to the college, despite reluctance by the county commissioners to provide what they see as special treatment to HCC amidst across the board budget cuts.
"I view it as an unresolved issue at this point," said HCC President Rose Johnson.
During the recession, commissioners slashed capital funding to the college and public school system by two-thirds, cut out nonprofits completely and laid off nearly 40 county employees.
The county had previously promised to pay for two new roofs and a major renovation at HCC with the annual contributions. But now, commissioners plan to dip into a special sales tax fund to pay for the projects.
The special sales tax was approved by voters specifically to fund expansions at HCC — not maintenance, according to college leaders. The college wants the county to restore its annual maintenance budget and reserve every penny of sales tax revenue for new construction and expansion.
Johnson met with county commissioners earlier this month to plead the college's case and plans to meet with the board again soon.

The Chagossians (also Îlois or Chagos Islanders) are people of African, Indian and Malay heritage who previously inhabited the Chagos Islands, specifically Diego Garcia, Peros Banhos, and the Salomon island chain, as well as other parts of the Chagos Archipelago. Most Chagossians now live in Mauritius and the United Kingdom after being forcibly evicted by the British government in the late 1960s and early 1970s so that Diego Garcia, the island where most Chagossians lived, could serve as the location for a military base shared between the UK and the United States. Today, there are no Chagossians that live on the island of Diego Garcia, as it is now the site of the military base Camp Justice.
The Chagossian people's ancestry is mostly of African heritage, particularly coming from Madagascar, Mozambique and other African nations including Mauritius. There is also a significant proportion of Indian and Malay ancestry.[1][full citation needed] The French brought some to the Chagos islands as slaves from Mauritius in 1786. Others arrived as fishermen, farmers, and coconut plantation workers during the 19th century.
The Chagossians speak Chagossian Creole, a mix of Indigenous languages and French-based creole language and part of the Bourbonnais Creole family. Chagossian Creole is still spoken by some of their descendants in Mauritius and the Seychelles. Chagossian people living in the UK speak English.
The Archipelago later passed to the control of the United Kingdom and came to form part of the Colony of Mauritius.
Mass eviction[edit]
In 1965, as part of a deal to grant Mauritian independence, the Chagos Archipelago was split off from the Colony and came to form the British Indian Ocean Territory. The territory's new constitution was set out in a statutory instrument imposed unilaterally without any referendum or consultation with the Chagossians and it envisaged no democratic institutions. On April 16, 1971, The United Kingdom issued a policy called BIOT Immigration Ordinance #1 which made it a criminal offense for those without military clearance to be on the islands without a permit.[2]
Between 1967 and 1973, the Chagossians, then numbering some 2,000 people, were expelled by the British government, first to the island of Peros Banhos, 100 miles (160 km) away from their homeland, and then, in 1973, to Mauritius (For the relationship between the Chagos Archipelago and Mauritius, see Chagos Archipelago). A number of Chagossians who were evicted reported they were threatened with being shot or bombed if they did not leave the island.[2] One old man reported to Washington Post journalist David Ottaway that an American official told him, "If you don't leave you won't be fed any longer."[2] BIOT commissioner Bruce Greatbatch later ordered all dogs on the island killed. Marcel Moulinie, who was in charge of managing the island, carried out this task by using raw meat to lure them into a shed for drying copra, gassing them with exhaust from U.S. military vehicles, and then setting their carcasses ablaze. Meanwhile, food stores on the island were allowed to deplete in order to pressure the remaining inhabitants to leave.[2] The forced expulsion and dispossession of the Chagossians was for the purpose of establishing a United States air and naval base on Diego Garcia, with a population of between 3,000 to 5,000 U.S. soldiers and support staff, as well as a few troops from the United Kingdom.[2]
High Court case[edit]
In early April 2006, in an excursion organised and financed by the British Foreign and Commonwealth Office, a group of around a hundred Chagossians were permitted to visit the British Indian Ocean Territory for the first time in over thirty years.[3]
On 11 May 2006, the Chagossians won their case in the High Court of Justice in England, which found that they were entitled to return to the Chagos Archipelago. It remained to be seen how this judgment might be implemented in practice.[4] However, in June 2006 the British government filed an appeal in the Court of Appeal against the High Court's decision. The Foreign and Commonwealth Office put forward an argument based on the treatment of the Japanese Canadians following the attacks on Pearl Harbor.[5]
House of Lords decision, 2008[edit]
After the Court of Appeal had upheld the decision of the High Court, the British government appealed successfully to the Judicial Committee of the House of Lords. On October 22, 2008, the Law Lords reached a decision on the appeal made by the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, David Miliband. They found in favour of the Government in a 3-2 verdict, ending the legal process in the UK and dashing the islanders' hopes of return. The judgement was published on the UK parliament website. The judges who voted to allow the government's appeal were Lord Hoffmann, Lord Rodger of Earlsferry, and Lord Carswell; those dissenting were Lord Bingham of Cornhill and Lord Mance.[6]
Marine nature reserve and cable leak[edit]
In April 2010, the British Government—specifically, the British diplomat Colin Roberts, acting on the instructions of David Miliband[7]—established a marine nature reserve around the Chagos Islands known as the Chagos Protected Area.[8] The designation proved controversial as the decision was announced during a period when the UK Parliament was in recess.[9][full citation needed]
On December 1, 2010, a leaked US Embassy London diplomatic cable dating back to 2009[10] exposed British and US calculations in creating the marine nature reserve. The cable relays exchanges between US Political Counselor Richard Mills and British Director of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office Colin Roberts, in which Roberts "asserted that establishing a marine park would, in effect, put paid to resettlement claims of the archipelago's former residents." Richard Mills concludes:
Establishing a marine reserve might, indeed, as the FCO's Roberts stated, be the most effective long-term way to prevent any of the Chagos Islands' former inhabitants or their descendants from resettling in the [British Indian Ocean Territory].
The cable (reference ID "09LONDON1156")[11][12] was classified as confidential and "no foreigners", and leaked as part of the Cablegate cache.
Armed with the Wikileaks revelations, the Chagossians launched an appeal, seeking a judgement that the reserve was unlawfully aimed at preventing them returning home. Although Bradley Manning had been arrested nearly three years previously, the UK government felt unable to confirm to the court that the leaked documents were genuine.[13] It was made clear to the court that the government's inability to confirm was for two reasons: firstly, to protect itself from the charge that it created the reserve to prevent the islanders from ever returning home and, secondly, out of a purported fear (Bradley Manning had been looking at 22 charges related to leaking classified government documents for more than two years by now) that the US government might get angry if the cables were acknowledged as genuine.[13] Despite the contents of his cable being known—"a marine park would, in effect, put paid to resettlement claims of the archipelago's former residents"—Roberts denied, when questioned in court, that there was an "ulterior motive" behind the reserve's establishment.[13] Lord Justice Richards and Mr Justice Mitting then refused to accept the documents as evidence, declaring that to do so would breach diplomatic privilege. The Guardian described their decision as having "far-reaching consequences" and "a severe setback for the use of material obtained from leaks or whistleblowers."[14] In June 2013, the pair of judges turned down the appeal brought by the Chagossians, ruling that everything was fine because the reserve was compatible with EU law.[7]
Discourse about the Chagossians[edit]
The WikiLeaks cables revealed diplomatic cables between the U.S. and U.K. about the Chagossians.[15] A cable written by D.A. Greenhill on August 24, 1966 to a U.S. State Department official refers to the Chagossians as "some few Tarzans or Man Friday."[citation needed]
Similar language appears in a 2009 U.S. State Department cable (09LONDON1156), which offered a description of the U.K. government's views about the effect of the Marine Protection Act:
However, Roberts stated that, according to the HGM,s current thinking on a reserve, there would be "no human footprints" or "Man Fridays" on the BIOT's uninhabited islands. He asserted that establishing a marine park would, in effect, put paid to resettlement claims of the archipelago's former residents.[12]
Internet petition[edit]
On 5 March 2012, an international petition was launched on We the People section of the whitehouse.gov website in order to ask the White House in United States to consider the Chagos case.[citation needed]
The petition was as follows:
- The U.S. Government Must Redress Wrongs Against the Chagossians
- For generations, the Chagossians lived on the Chagos Archipelago in the Indian Ocean. But in the 1960s, the U.S. and U.K. governments expelled the Chagossians from their homes to allow the United States to build a military base on Diego Garcia. Facing social, cultural, and economic despair, the Chagossians now live as a marginalized community in Mauritius and Seychelles and have not been allowed to return home. The recent passing of the oldest member of the exiled population underscores the urgent need to improve the human rights of the Chagossians. We cannot let others die without the opportunity to return home and obtain redress. The United States should provide relief to the Chagossians in the form of resettlement to the outer Chagos islands, employment, and compensation.[16]
On 4 April 2012, the required signatures was met and an official response was published.[17]

Fucked Up
Hidden World
Release Date: October 10, 2006
FUCKED UP's first release for Jade Tree is cloaked in shades of unconventional aesthetics, symbolic overtones and a self-proclaimed "culture of confusion." Hidden World, the band's first full length studio album, marks a turning point for the mysterious Toronto band, transcending the boundaries of punk with melody, aggression, expansive structures and enigmatic diatribes on what lies underneath the immediate, visualized world. FUCKED UP combine confrontational ideologies with deliberate misinformation to produce a brutal analysis on thought provocative punk. In a word, FUCKED UP and Hidden World is dangerous and unpredictable in a time when punk has become a manufactured commodity.
Vinyl is available through Deranged Records.

In anticipation of Passover, I thought I would re-publish my matzo recipe for those of you who are new to my blog and my newsletter. There has been some controversy around the gluten-free status, high cost and availability of oat matzo, so save money, aggravation, worry and waste (this recipe tastes awesome!), and just make it yourself! These great saltine-like crackers are wonderful for Jewish holidays or any time of year, for that matter!
During Passover, foods containing barley, oats, rye, spelt, or wheat are forbidden, except the unleavened bread known as Matzo, which actually must be made with one of the aforementioned ingredients in order to duplicate the ingredients used by the Hebrews making bread in haste when fleeing Egypt.
Matzo is the oldest and most well-known (edible) symbol of the exodus of the Jews from Egyptian slavery. According to the Bible, Aaron and Moses warned of 10 plagues sent to cause Pharaoh to free the Jews. When the final plague killed all the first-born sons of Egypt but passed over the Jewish houses, Pharaoh finally released the Jews from their bondage in Egypt. However, they were forced to leave in such great haste that their bread dough did not have time to rise, leaving them with what we now know as "matzo" (matzah, matza, matzoth, matzot), or unleavened bread.
While matzo was the humble food of slaves, it also recalls a great moment of freedom. During Passover, special foods like matzo are eaten to symbolize both the bitterness of slavery and the sweetness of freedom.
Gluten-free participants in Passover rites have typically not been so free to share in this great tradition, however. Matzo is manufactured for Passover using wheat flour; thus, we gluten-free'ers must think outside the proverbial cracker box to explore safe and tasty options. Fortunately, there are now some pretty tasty gluten-free "Mazo-Style" cracker alternatives available, and you can always make your own!
Like any other wheat flour recipe we might long to enjoy again, devising a gluten-free solution is as simple as: modify, substitute and perfect using gluten-free ingredients. You will be pleasantly surprised not only at the crunchy lightness of this recipe, but also at its simplicity! Since matzo must be made and baked within 18 minutes to prevent any leavening in the dough, you have no time to dawdle with intricate details. This 5 ingredient recipe takes only 20 minutes from start to finish!
(In case you're looking beyond Matzo for Passover recipes, I thought this one from the LA Times was interesting, advocating nuts as a Passover ingredient rather than traditional matzo. Hmmm – nuts also happen to be GF – I like it!)
Gluten-Free Matzo
- 1 cup Jules Gluten Free™ All-Purpose Flour
- 1/2 cup gluten-free oat flour (or may use almond meal/flour)*
- 1/2 tsp. sea salt or kosher salt
- 4 Tbs. extra virgin olive oil
- 3-5 Tbs. water
- cooking oil spray
- coarse kosher salt or sea salt to sprinkle on tops
*Note: gluten-free oat flour or almond meal/flour is easy to make at home using this simple recipe, made even easier by using my Jules Gluten Free™ Certified Gluten-Free Instant Oats (they're smaller and finer and easier to grind into flour)!
Preheat oven to 450° F (static) 425° F (convection).
Use a food processor or mix by hand in a large bowl: Jules Gluten Free™ All Purpose Flour, oat flour and salt. Slowly add in the liquid while pulsing or stirring with a fork. If the dough is too dry, add additional water by the 1/2 teaspoonful in order to get dough wet enough to form a ball but not be sticky. Depending on the additional flour you use — oat or almond — you will need more or less water.
Form a ball with the dough and pat out onto a pastry mat or clean counter dusted with Jules Gluten Free™ All Purpose Flour. Pat with your fingers to flatten the dough, then roll gently in each direction until the dough is the thickness of a saltine cracker. Cut to desired size and shape, lift with a bench scraper or spatula, and place onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Prick each matzo in lines with a fork. Spray tops with cooking oil to help the cracker lightly brown. Sprinkle with additional coarse kosher salt, if desired. Use remnant dough to make more matzo.
Bake for 10 minutes, or just until slightly browned.
Serves: 4.

I have just had celiac confirmed. No more "It's just a sensitivity, a little won't harm you!" Freeing, actually. Anyway. I have another flour blend available to me, which doesn't include Xpandex or Guar/Xanthan gum. how do I adjust, or DO I? (hope you see this question.)
Jules said: on March 2, 2011
Hi Mary, congratulations on finally figuring it out! I hope you feel so much better now that you know! Regarding xanthan and guar gums, you are right to note that I don't call for it in my recipes, since my flour mixture already includes it. If you are using a different flour mixture, it will behave differently for many reasons, not just because of the lack of gums. For example, it it has bean flour it in your mix, it may leave a funny aftertaste; if it has a lot of rice flour, the recipe might be a bit gritty. Just be aware of that as you go forward in your baking. As for gums, an easy rule of thumb to remember is that for yeast recipes, you need approximately 1 tsp. gum for every cup of flour; for quick breads, cakes and cookies, add approximately 1/2 tsp. gum for every cup of flour. Again, when following my recipes, I do not call out for gums to be added because they are already in my flour.
Mary Brinton said: on March 5, 2011
Thank you! I have plenty of time, and I'm going to wait until my lovely bag of flour arrives. I really appreciate all of your help.
Pam Greenfield said: on April 11, 2011
So are you saying that your bread mix has more xanthan gum than your cookie mix? Should I add a smidgeon more xanthan when I'm making bread with your flour???
Jules said: on April 11, 2011
Pam, you should not need to add xanthan gum, ever, if you're using my products. I don't even keep it in my kitchen anymore — I never add it when using my flour or any of my mixes.
Jeanette said: on April 11, 2011
Brilliant! These look great! I was just thinking about gluten-free matzo bread the other day so I'm so glad you figured this one out!
Vicki said: on April 17, 2011
Happy Passover. I will be trying your matzo recipe. Do you have one for matzo balls?
Jules said: on April 21, 2011
Hi Vicki! Happy Passover to you, as well! Try baking this matzo out according to the recipe, then grinding it up into "matzo flour." Use in your family's matzo ball soup recipe – I can't wait to hear how it turns out!
Roxy said: on April 20, 2011
Can I use this recipe to make matzo ball soup? I've been craving that lately and need to find a GF alternative. Thanks!
Jules said: on April 21, 2011
Oh yes Roxy, I think you bake this matzo out according to the recipe, then grind it up into "matzo flour" and use in your regular matzo ball soup recipe – should be delicious!
Tovah @ Glutenfreebay.com said: on April 22, 2011
This recipe looks great – however, I am concerned this post will lead people to think that these crackers fulfill the mitzvah of matzo. Matzo is something we are commanded to eat so it's a serious thing for observant Jews. It MUST be made of only wheat, barley, rye, oats (controversial whether these count) or spelt in order to be considered matzo. The flour must have been watched over from harvest onwards and baked in a special supervised process. What this means is that your cracker cannot fulfill the mitzvah of matzo, and we cannot say the hamotzi blessing on it. The hamotzi blessing is one of the whole points of eating matzo. It's important that Jewish celiacs know they likely cannot make hamotzi on this product without consulting a rabbi, it's not kosher for Passover (since your flour mix isn't and there's no kosher for passover oat flour available on the retail market) and it doesn't count as matzo according to Jewish law. Great for folks looking for matzo-like crackers after Passover, but not great for people looking to actually observe the laws of Passover. Keep up the great recipe development.
Jules said: on April 22, 2011
Tovah, thanks so much for weighing in on the Matzo issue and for lending your expertise! All very good points.
The Seders I have attended (including the one this week that served the "matzo-style" crackers) were somewhat more informal, and there was no rabbi present. I am aware of the need for Matzo to be made with one of the 4 flours you listed, which is why my recipe includes oat flour and I suppose why the commercial product we had at the Seder must be called "Matzo-style;" to clarify, my flour is certified kosher (though not certified kosher for Passover) and I use kosher-certified oats to grind my own oat flour.
How do you handle this dilemma during Passover? I have heard mixed reviews of the oat Matzo commercially available now, but is that the best strict kosher for Passover option?
Once again Tovah, thank you so much for taking the time to add to the conversation and share your knowledge! Happy Passover to you! -
Tzipurah bat Baruch Eliezar said: on March 19, 2013
While the strict production of K for P matzo is laid out for us home bakers, the overriding intention is the health of the individual, similar to diabetics fasting for Yom Kippur and other fast days. The intention of going above and beyond to make a matzo that will not do the body harm is a mitzvah in itself. As I am researching gluten-free matzo recipes, I also look at the difficulty of finding an oven that will bake at 2000 to 2500 degrees, short of renting a ceramics kiln, cleansing it and firing that up…
Judaism is a living religion, not cemented in Leviticus. That is to say, we do not just discard the rules of kashruth, but we assess how those rules need to be adapted. Do we ask the celiac sufferer to knowingly cause themselves harm by eating kosher matzo or do we condemn them for not eating of the matzo and moror? Do we tell them they are less than even though they have gone to great lengths to find an answer that fulfills the mitzvah of matzo and does no harm to their physical person?
I do not suggest that we make ham and cheese matzo sandwiches, nor am I a fan of jalapeno bagels, but I hold that the INTENTION of the matzo is far stronger than the actual piece of baked goods. Forever should we teach the rules and reasons for kashruth, but we should also teach tolerance and acceptance. We should congratulate those who work to hold the intention and teach the children in the face of difficulties.
Thank you for the opportunity to review this…I would never have given matzo this much consideration otherwise. My dad would be proud.-
Jules said: on March 20, 2013
Thank you for sharing your perspective on this sensitive issue. I've heard from so many who find themselves in this quandary, caught between the rules and the reality of living with celiac disease. My intention is to provide this recipe as an alternative to those who choose for themselves to use it, and enable them to participate fully in the Seder.
Sue said: on April 24, 2011
The matza issue was a big one for me this year. For the past few years, I bought the Kosher for Passover oat matza. Unfortunately, this year I found out that I can't tolerate oats either, which left me with NO options for "legal" matza. I thought about having just enough oat matza at the seders to be able to officially say hamotzi, but given the reaction I now have to even a small amount of gluten I didn't want to take the chance of having a similar experience with the oat matza.
I found a commercially made gluten-free "matza" which has a statement on the box that it does not fulfill the mitzvah of matza, but I decided (without consulting my Rabbi…) that since that was the ONLY "matza"-ish thing I could eat it would do. (I know this is a very liberal decision, but it is what felt right for me.)
But I agree with Tovah… when I looked at your recipe, Jules, the first thing I said to myself was that I couldn't make it because it calls for ingredients that are not Kosher for Passover. Kudos to you for having Kosher supervision for your flour blend, but Kosher for Passover is a whole different story…!

I see that you developed the GF matzo. Any chance that you have a recipe for the matzo balls. My daughter was diagnosed with EE (eosinophilic esophagitis)caused by the food (gluten and casein)allergy. YOu blog is wonderful! Thank you for all the hard work! Marina-
Jules said: on June 16, 2011
Marina, I haven't developed matzo balls yet, but the beauty of making this gluten-free matzo is that you can bake it then put it into a food processor to grind it into "matzo flour" to be used in many different recipes! So glad you love the blog – thanks much for letting me know! : )

I'm not kosher but when I was looking for a gluten-free, dairy-free cracker, I came across this recipe (I usually check Jule's recipes first!). This cracker is so easy to make and is a great snack. I use the almond flour and substitue 2 tablespoons of the gluten-free flour blend with an equal amount of coconut flour. Even my husband who isn't gluten free loves these crackers!
Jules said: on July 26, 2011
Sharon- that's fantastic! So glad you've tried the recipe so you can attest to how easy it really is!!!
Janet Stoneking said: on December 12, 2011
Hi Jules! I am working to become gluten free and am thrilled to find your website. My family loves lasagna and I have been looking for a gluten free alternative. I found a recipe at this link, which includes 8 x 8 inch matzah: http://www.jewfaq.org/kfpfood.htm#Lasagna. Here is my question: Is the matzah ingredient in the lasagna the same matzo that I can make using your recipe here? Thanks in advance for your help!
Jules said: on December 12, 2011
Janet – that recipe sounds so intriguing! I've never heard of using Matzah/Matzo in place of lasagne noodles, but this recipe makes that same "matzah ingredient" it references! It's like a large cracker that must just get mushy enough from the sauce and baking to be softer like a noodle. Inspired!
Basya said: on March 26, 2012
Just to weigh in on the matzoh mitzvah discussion: currently, the kosher-for-Passover oat matzoh (available by special order or at specialty stores only, as far as I know) is the only acceptable solution for fulfilling the mitzvah. However, a person's local rav (rabbinical authority) can make a ruling in the case of someone who cannot tolerate oats. The last thing anyone would want is for someone to be made ill due to holiday observance.
To be clear, this issue is of importance to those who are more traditional in their observance; many Jews will accept the matzoh-style cracker for their seder. The cracker I know of that's widely available commercially tastes very close to the real thing.
There are recipes out there for matzoh balls made with almond flour, and also one that I know of that uses potato flour and potatoes. I haven't tried these yet but hope to this year. (If you Google some keywords you should find them online with little trouble.)
There is a very traditional/observant section of the Jewish community that won't even use regular matzoh meal in recipes for most of the holiday (this is called "non-gebrokts," too technical to explain), and these folks utilize such recipes even if they're not avoiding gluten.
There's a cookbook available called _Pesach — Anything's Possible!_ by Tamar Ansh that features over 350 non-gebrokts, gluten-free and wheat-free recipes. (I'm not affiliated with the author, publisher, or sellers of this book — just want to let people know about it.)
There are recipes that use matzoh instead of lasagne noodles. You have to soak them in water for a short time first to make them pliable, then squeeze out any extra water. You layer them just like noodles. I imagine this method works for gluten-free matzoh, too, although maybe it gets a bit mushier. On the other hand, if you're willing to eat rice or corn during Passover (again, it's technical) there are some gluten-free lasagne noodles out there.
Happy Passover!
Jules said: on March 27, 2012
Thanks so much for the information! That's all super helpful, and yes, Happy Passover to you too!
Rivkah Buchin said: on January 6, 2013
Thank you, Basya, for naming Tamar Ansh's book. Although, my husband and I are traditionally gebrokts, because of my gluten-free status, I have to rely on foods that are non-gebrokts for Pesach. This whole process of going GF is still new to me, it has only been 6 months since I was in the hospital. I am still on the steep part of the learning curve and all the resources, including Jules blog and your blog will be very helpful. Being a GF, strictly kosher, diabetic, mostly ovo-lacto-pesco vegetarian is not easy!
Thanks again! (Todah rabah!)
Beth said: on March 27, 2012
Hi Jules,
Thank you SO much for posting this! I have Candida and can't have any yeast, sugar, dairy, etc. but I also have celiac. I have been looking for recipes that I can eat so I am thrilled to have found this!! I'm going to order your flour today so I can make them. If you have any other ideas for recipes, i'd love to hear them. No one seems to have many of them… Thanks again, have a great holiday!-
Jules said: on March 27, 2012
Beth – so glad this recipe will work for you! I also have a delicious yeast-free bread recipe (everything I do is also dairy-free) in my book, Free for All Cooking.
What kind of sugar subs can you tolerate? I've experimented in many of my recipes by using unrefined coconut palm sugar or baking stevia and I also use agave now and then. Anyway, welcome to my blog & I hope you enjoy the recipes!!!-
Beth said: on March 28, 2012
Thanks Jules! I can't have any substitutes unfortunately. Not even stevia. Maybe as I get better I will be able to use some. But I was excited to see the oat flour, it is filling and will be a great addition to this recipe and the yeast/gluten/sugar/dairy free bread that I make. I just love everything you do to help the celiac community. I'll check out your cookbook, thank you so much!
Jules said: on March 28, 2012
So glad some of the recipes will work for you right now, Beth. Hopefully as you heal, you will be able to reintroduce more ingredients to your recipes, but at least these will get you started!
Robyn Smith said: on March 28, 2012
I made this for the first time today. I added more water to make the dough nice and wet, as well as 3 Tablespoons of seltzer and BAM – matzah balls! Cooked them like normal matzah balls, they had a nice flavor and were fluffy floaters (versus sinkers.) Thanks Jules! It's my second big Jewish holiday being GF (recently diagnosed in January, made delish GF hamentashen for Purim). Was worrying about Pesach, I'm less stressed now!
Jules said: on March 29, 2012
That's fantastic, Robyn! Glad you've got reason to be more relaxed heading into the holidays! Thanks for the matzah ball modification, too! Sounds perfect!
Robin N. said: on April 7, 2012
I made these tonight, Jules. They were delicious, and so easy to make! My husband said that they were the best matzo he had ever tasted. I happen to agree. Thank you so much for the recipe!
Jules said: on April 7, 2012
Yay, Robin! That's fantastic! So glad even your hubbie was impressed! Happy Passover!
Sybil Nassau said: on April 7, 2012
Weighing in on the "oats" issue; the company in New Jersey, Lakewood, that makes the gf matzo takes care to make sure the oats do not come in contact with rain before manufacture. The other company in England does the same thing so those two are the only matzo acceptable for hamotzie for observant Jews. For the rest of us, homemade or purchased Yehuda matzo allows us to partake of tradition and enjoy a a seder without feeling left out. Purchasing gf gefilte fish, a frozen product from A & B, solved that problem, and the creation of yummy knaidlach from the ground matzo takes care of that too. So thanks for all of these wonderful and creative recipes. Passover is once again a holiday we can enjoy with our families! Now to make a kugel! Thanks Manishewitz and Gefin!
Jules said: on April 7, 2012
Thanks for the info, Sybil! And happy Passover to you!
GlutenfreeMommu said: on April 9, 2012
So I just wanted to say that I had a chat with my local rabbi regarding this issue of what's ok and whatnot regarding passover…there are a few matzah style crackers out on the market now that say not for sacramental purposes right on the box…HOWEVER and here's the big thing that we all need to remember…the thing the rabbi told me (Consrvative movement) is that the belief is no one should intentionally make the self sick, especially is regards to the holiness of the holiday of commemorating the exodus. The Jews have suffered so much through out history, and one should remember to not suffer on purpose. That's intentionally inflicting pain on oneself, which is considered sinning. So there is a fine line that needs to be considered here…when it comes to me toddler who has celiac, I will let her know this information as she grows so as not to feel guilt or sadness as of she's not fulfilling Jewish law…
Jules said: on April 9, 2012
GlutenfreeMommu – I applaud your approach to this sometimes tricky situation. The intersection of faith and food can be a delicate issue, not just for those who follow the Jewish faith. I am relieved to hear that a tenant of your faith is to not make one intentionally sick or to cause suffering. A little dose of common sense sure goes a long way.
Dina said: on April 11, 2012
Thank you Jules, came across this looking for a GF matzo ball soup recipe….
and was planning on posting a comment regarding fulfilling the mitzvah of eating matzo, but glutenfreemommu basically said it already. thanks all of you
Jules said: on April 12, 2012
Great, Dina! So glad it's useful to you!
Sherril Pearson said: on August 10, 2012
Jules–Please help! I just tried making a DOUBLE batch of matzo. I've made single & double batches many times before. This one went in the garbage–can you tell me why? I simply doubled all the ingredients, however dough was so wet after the olive oil that I had to leave out the water. I also had to add some extra GF flour. It was all soggy out of the oven! I even tried to turn it over & bake the other side. It was like there was way too much oil or moisture, even without any water! I'm sure I carefully measured everything using: 2 c flour, 1 c almond meal, 8 TBSP Olive Oil & no water (due to too much moisture already.) Thanks–I was so disappointed after all my effort & loss of products.
Jules said: on August 11, 2012
Sherril – I'm not sure what could have happened if you've made the recipe many times before and this time it behaved so differently. Whenever that kind of thing has happened to me without explanation, I've assumed I must have somehow made a measuring error (for example, my old 3/4 cup measuring cup looks exactly like my 1 cup measure, and I've been known to use that by accident). I know how frustrating that can be to have a favorite recipe not turn out. If you are ever having troubles with a recipe or need advice on a specific problem, email firstname.lastname@example.com and we'll walk through it with you via email to help get it right. It's much easier to go back and forth through email to try to solve the problem!

Always loved them because they had no unnecessary scents, but the latest box had a super-strong, nauseating fake vanilla smell when I opened it. It set off an asthma attack. No change in the outside packaging warning me of this. I am extremely disappointed and have to find a new brand.
These work like regular(wasteful) plastic trash bags, but leave a better imprint on my conscience, and less impact on the environment! Love being able to get recycled trash bags to round out my supplies!
These are just like non-recycled garbage bags but with a smaller footprint. Love them!

While this year's subprime and structured finance meltdowns have negatively affected bonus prospects at some hedge funds, the broader trends toward enormous inflows of capital and higher returns overall bode well for hedge fund employee compensation at yearend and in 2008.
"Those two factors are driving a very good year," says Alan Johnson, managing director of New York compensation specialist Johnson Associates.
During the first half of 2007, the assets of 246 U.S. hedge fund firms managing $1 billion or more increased by more than 23%, to nearly $1.5 trillion, according to the Absolute Return Billion Dollar Club. Most of this money has gone to the largest firms, and the trend shows little sign of abating. And despite negative returns in July and August, the Absolute Return Composite Index advanced 9.19% for the year through October. That puts the Index well ahead of its 8.54% return for the same period...

my husband and I had been trying for a baby for about eight months whenPosted On Saturday, July 06, 2002 by Christy |
my husband and I had been trying for a baby for about eight months when we finally concieved in february '01. I guess you can say that this, my first pregnancy , was jinxed right from the very start. It took us a while to concieve because I had recently been diagnosed with having an under-active thyroid gland which was making my periods very erratic. when I was about three weeks pregnant I had radiation dye put through my viens so I could have x-rays taken of my kidney which was swollen due to a blockage in it. ( obviously I didn't know I was pregnant as this was a very dangerous procedure to have done whilst pregnant.) Even though we had been trying for a baby it was a huge shock for us when we disovered we were, and a very scary one. for a while it was thought I might have an eptopic pregnancy as the only reason I found out I was pregnant was because I went to the doctors because I had an enormous ammount of pain in my womb. Fourtunatly it was'nt and we made it through to twelve weeks at which point we started to relax becuse the risky part was over, so we thought (how wrong we were!!) I thought the sickness was going to ease off at this point but it just seemed to get worse with every passing day. Then at sixteen weeks things got even worse as I was diagnosed with having diabetes. It was very servere and I ended up injecting about 80 units of insulin a day. however on the plus side my morning sickness did ease off a bit at this point.The next few weeks went by and I started to get used to the diabetes and the ritual of injecting insulin.There was a plus point that I got to have scans every other week, which was lovely. Then at my twenty three week scan we were told we were having a boy. unfortunatly at the same scan we were told that he was looking quite small for his age (about three weeks behind.) However I had a great consultant and specialist diabetic midwife who explained all about small for dates babies and illnesses that can be linked with small babies (one of which was pre-eclampsia). however at this point I had no symptons of it at all. Then one morning when I was about six months pregnant I woke up to a really dull ache in my hands. They were so swollen I couldn't move my wedding ring and could barley bend my fingers. I called my midwife who came out and took my blood pressure, which was borderline high so she booked me into the hospital. I spent the next few hours having the babies heartbeat monitored and blood tests taken. Everything checked out ok and even though I still felt ill I was sent home. A few weeks later after having it ok'd by my doctor I went to go and visit my mom who lives about four hours away. On the way we stopped for a rest and promptly fell asleep. when I woke up my hands, feet and face were all badly swollen and I felt really ill. I spent the next day in bed but by the afternoon was seeing flashing lights in my eyes, and still felt ill , so my mom took me to the doctors. My blood pressure was over 100 and I had plus two protein. He admited me to the local hospital, where I spent the next week. I spent the whole week asking if I could go back home to my hospital where my consultant was , eventually after about nine days they said i could go home, but only if I promised to go straight to the hospital. The next day I was home and like a lot of people ignored the doctor and left it two days untill my next ante-natal appointment to see someone. At this appointment by bp was still over 100 so I was admitted back into hospital. this was the second week of september and I stopped there till I had my son at 35 weeks on tuesday october the second. I can't really remember alot about the weekend before I had bodie appart from I couldn't walk anywhere on my own because my eyes would roll around in my head and I kept nearly blacking out. my husband stopped in my room on the nights because the staff were worried I might start having fits.Unfortunatly during this weekend my consultant was away so noone could do a lot with me. I only now realise that I should have been on tablets to lower by bp and mag sulfate to stop fits. however when my consultant arrived on monday I was crying on my bed and begged him to let me have my baby he said my bloods were not looking very good and asked if I wanted to be induced. I asked if I could have a c-section as I had no energy to give birth , he agreed that this was the best option for me. My son was born at 9:54 on tuesday morning by cesarean section. I was given a spinal block so I was awake throughout the dilivery, it was amazing. Bodie was born weighing 4lb6oz, and scored nine on both agpar tests. we got to hold him for about five minuets then he was taken to the nnu as he was having trouble breathing. He spent 10 days in the neonatal unit and then came on to the ward with me. At first they wouldn't let us go home as he was having problems breast feeding. Eventually I decided to try him on a bottle, which was a really turning point for us. Three days later we were home. Bodie is now eight and a half months old, crawling, sitting up on his own and saying dadda. he's amazing. I think in alot of ways my expierience of pre-eclampsia has made me stronger. My husband and I are now thinking of getting pregnant again (as belive it or not I REALLY miss being pregnant.) Although I am a little scared of getting pre-eclampsia again, but i know if I do i'll have the best possible care. The most important part I think is that my son is healthy, and i'm ok.Everything I went through was worth it,and I would go through it all again tommorrow if I had to. Just fingers crossed i won't. xxx |

Day 1
Flights usually depart London in the evening.
Day 2
We arrive in the afternoon at Colombo's Katunayake Airport and transfer to our hotel at Marawila on the coast approximately an hour north of the airport. Those not flying with the group will join us at the hotel.
Day 3
Today we drive out to Sigiriya. This town is famous for the impressive 5th century rock fortress, which rises 600 feet from the plains and overlooks the surrounding countryside, giving far reaching magnificent views. The afternoon is free to relax at the hotel, explore the town or enjoy a dip in the pool.
Day 4
Sigiriya is our base for the next two days, used as a safe haven from invaders, the route to the top is up a series of steep steps and gangways. From the base, where a moat surrounds impressive water gardens, we ascend 200m, passing an overhanging rock under which superb portraits of native maidens holding flowers and temple offerings still adorn the rock wall. Crowning the flat-topped summit of the rock are extensive remains of the King's Summer Palace from where there are breath-taking views of the surrounding countryside. The descent however is much easier and will take a lot less time. Please make sure that your children are accompanied at all times as there are some steep drops on this climb. It is of course optional and you may not wish to climb to the top of the fortress itself. In the afternoon we include the opportunity to cycle slowly through local villages and soak up the atmosphere, this is usually a great experience for everyone.
Day 5
After breakfast we take a short drive to, the 10th century capital of Sri Lanka, Polonnaruwa. This is an optional activity and if you do not wish to visit this site then the morning is free. At Polonnaruwa there are many Buddhist relics and ruins dating from a thousand years ago when Sinhalese culture reached its zenith. Polonnaruwa flourished in the 12th century after the decision was made to move the capital from Anuradhapura so it was further away from the incursions from southern India. After lunch we spend the afternoon at an elephant camp at Habarana where you and your family can take an elephant ride (included) into the natural surroundings. The jungle is great fun and the bird life is fantastic too, though this is usually weather dependent.
Day 6
Today we visit the magnificent Cave Temple at Dambulla, for some, the most impressive sight in Sri Lanka. There are colourful, and very well preserved, paintings and statues of the Buddha inside the caves, which date back to the 1st century BC. After lunch we stop at a spice garden near Matale where you and your children can see various spices and herbs growing and there is a chance to stock up on massage oils, spices and Ayurvedic medicines. We then drive to Kandy.
Day 7
Kandy is a picturesque hill town situated on a lake and home to Temple of the Tooth, Sri Lanka's most important Buddhist relic. We begin with a visit to the Temple of the tooth during the ceremony. The Tooth of Buddha, which was taken from the funeral pyre in 543 BC and only found its way to Sri Lanka in the 4th century AD. There are normally hundreds of worshippers who visit the temple each day and it is open to the public. Then we visit a gem museum where you can see the products of the traditional methods of gem extraction.The rest of the day is free to wander round Kandy, by the lake or take a taxi up to the surrounding hills for wonderful views over the town. There is an optional excursion to the elephant orphanage where you get to see 70 elephants playing in the water for two hours.
Day 8
Today we make the spectacular drive through tea plantation districts to Nurawa Eliya. This was the favourite hill station during the British era and, situated in the cool highland air at 1890m, has a very British feel to it. Known locally as 'Little England' it is dotted with British style houses, hotels and a racecourse. The area is famous for its high quality tea and we visit a working plantation later in the day. We stay in the hill country overnight at Bandarrawela.
Day 9
Today we continue on to Ella Gap where we have spectacular views of the coastal plain nearly 1,000m below. Almost the whole of the southern part of the island is in view and on a particularly clear day the shimmering silver of the ocean is visible. At the times of year our trips take place, the weather is normally clear in the mornings, however, as in any mountainous area, bad weather does sometimes occur which will obviously limit the view. We then head south out of the hills to Kataragama down on the plains, this is our base for visiting Yala National Park. After lunch we will drive to the park for a game drive; Yala is best known for its elephants but we may also see deer, monkeys, buffalo and a wide range of bird life. If you are lucky you may also see a leopard as Yala has one of the highest concentrations of leopards in the world (Please note that the sanctuary is closed for 4-6 weeks from September to October allowing the park authorities to check the animals. We therefore go to an alternative area close by, usually the Udawalawe National Park).
Day 10 - 12
Today we leave for the coast with its beautiful palm fringed bays. On the way we stop at Tangalle and walk through a rice field to a village where you get to try some unusual local delicacies. You will get to see daily life and may even take part in some traditional Sri Lankan sports activities. We then get back to our bus in little tractors used by the farmers. We will have lunch (optional) at a house built by Exodus for Tsunami victims; this may well be one of the best curries of your trip! We will arrive at Ahangama in the afternoon and the rest of your time here is free with a chance to swim, relax on the beach or by the pool and do any one of numerous optional activities that your leader can organise for you.
Day 13
We set off early today and drive along the coastal road to the historic port of Galle. Dating back to the 17th century and now a world heritage site we have a short visit of the Galle Fort. We then follow the coast for the drive to Colombo, visiting a turtle hatchery on the way. We reach Colombo in the late afternoon and check into our hotel.
Day 14
We have a relaxed breakfast before those flying on the group flight transfer to the airport for an early afternoon flight. Arrangements for those not flying with the group ends after check out.
