|Site News:Help MAScores.com Stay at the Top of its Game!
|I love running MAScores.com because I believe that high school athletics provide wonderful opportunities for our students, and I think the Cape Ann League is one of the best in the state. I spend the bulk of my time maintaining, improving, and growing the site. Please take a few minutes to read through this post and see if you can find a way to help support the site, even it is just spreading the good word about MAScores.com.
The Basics:
The traffic to MAScores.com is off the charts, and I am thankful for the support our visitors provide. You can also help us through one of the following ways:
1. Place an advertisement for your business (or refer us to others)
2. Sign up for a My Teams Premium Account (just $10 per year)
3. Make a donation to our GoFundMe campaign
The Details in all their glory:
Beginning this fall, MAScores.com became the official site for online scheduling for the Cape Ann League. With that, the site, which began as Cape Ann League Scores (CALScores.com) more than ten years ago, saw a huge jump in traffic. Since the start of September we have been visited by more than 26,000 different people, with total sessions close to 90,000. In that time we have had over 430,000 pageviews.
Feedback has been incredible. From the athletic directors who use the site for their scheduling and the coaches who report scores and game summaries, to the thousands of athletes, family members, fans, and members of the local media who now have 24/7 access to current and accurate schedules, stores, and standings.
In order to continue to provide such timely and accurate information, add useful and important features and updates, and keep the site free and accessible to all visitors, MAScores.com needs to support itself financially. In order to allow its team of one (me) to devote the time and resources necessary to keep the site at the top of its game, MAScores.com must bring in revenue.
Currently there are three ways that you can help support the site: First is by placing an advertisement on the site. Businesses can advertise on the page of a specific school (or schools), or choose to run an ad that will be seen site wide. Starting as low as $100 per year for a shared slot on a school page, options run up to a $5000 per year slot that is in a highly visible location on every page of the site. Of course there are many options in between. If you do business within the twenty communities of the Cape Ann League an advertisement on MAScores.com will be seen.
The second way you can support the site is to sign up for a My Teams Premium Account. The basic My Teams account is free and gives you access to all of the schedules, scores, and other information on the site. The basic account allows you to receive e-mail updates for schedule changes for up to five teams. For just $10 per year, a Premium account doubles the number of teams to 10, and provides a page where you can view all ten of those schedules in one convenient place.
The third way you can help is through a donation to a one-time GoFundMe Campaign. For those who find MAScores.com useful and want to help out, you can make any size donation through this campaign, and receive various tokens of appreciation depending upon your level of giving. You can read more about it at our GoFundMe page.

|Girls Soccer:Winthrop vs. Georgetown
|Two second half goals gave the Georgetown girls soccer team all they needed to win the Division 4 North title defeating Winthrop on a cloudy/cold Sunday afternoon.

|Girls Soccer:Triton @ Newburyport
|For the second time this season Newburyport defeated Triton in a close game. Following a 2-1 win in September, the Clippers claimed a 1-0 victory over the visiting Vikings yesterday. Abbie Bresnahan scored her 11th goal of the season in the 58th minute on a penalty kick.
Despite the outcome, Triton coach Mike Weisberg felt his team played well enough to win, with advantages in shots, corners, and time of possession. He credited the play of his captains Teresa Benoit and Cara Orlandi, along with Lily Dow, Alex Kennedy, Skyler Accomando, RyleeMcKay Culverwell, and Meredith Wilcox. Christine Ciccone made 4 saves in net for the Vikings.
Both teams are headed for the state tournament, so a third meeting between these two is a possibility. If they end up on opposite sides of the bracket, it could even be for the North title.
|October 28, 2014
|Volleyball:Swampscott @ Hamilton-Wenham
|Hamilton-Wenham finished their regular season schedule on Monday, sweeping Swampscott 3-0 at home on Senior Night. Seniors Maddie O'Connor and Stella Dunbar were honored for their contributions to the program.
With a final record of 10-8, the Generals have qualified for the state tournament.
|October 28, 2014
|Girls Soccer:North Reading @ Hamilton-Wenham
|The Hornets and the Generals fought another tough battle on Monday. Earlier in the season the two teams played to a scoreless tie. Yesterday, Hamilton-Wenham freshman Erin O'Shea scored her first varsity goal at the 30-minute mark, and it would prove to be the game winner as the Generals took the match, 1-0. O'Shea was assisted by Izzy Berthoud.
Playing well for the Generals at midfield was Saskia Leonard, whose decisions on the field allowed for the home team to create great scoring opportunities. On the back field, Grace Monahan had a great game tracking and controlling the speed of the visiting team.
North Reading will complete their regular season today at home against Pentucket, while Hamilton-Wenham travels to Pentucket on Wednesday. Both the Generals and the Hornets have qualified for the state tournament.
|October 28, 2014
|Boys Soccer:Amesbury @ Rockport
|Knowing a loss would end their season, Rockport stepped it up on Senior Night, defeating Amesbury 6-0 to secure a berth in the postseason. The win gave the Vikings an 8-7-2 record, sending them into the state tournament.
After being held scoreless in their previous two games, Rockport exploded offensively. Ethan Fuller scored a pair of goals, while Andrew Wayrynen, Dan Ryan, Sam Knowlton, and Andrew Gleckner all scored once. Jake Rostkowski picked up his 7th shutout of the season.
Now the Vikings will wait until later in the week to find out where they will play their first round tournament game.
|October 28, 2014
|Girls Soccer:Rockport @ Amesbury
|On Senior Night at Amesbury, the Indians defeated visiting Rockport 2-0. First Team All-Star Amanda Martin scores on a Jill Hadwin assist, and Mollie Lynch scored on an assist from Hayley Tagliente. Keeper Zoe Fitzgerald made 21 saves in net for the Indians.
Amesbury (4-12-1) finishes their season at home this afternoon against Manchester-Essex.
|October 28, 2014
|Girls Soccer:Gloucester @ Manchester-Essex
|After a season of close games, Manchester-Essex picked up that elusive win on Monday as they defeated Gloucester 3-1 at home. The Hornets played tough all season, coming up just short in a number of one and two goal games.
Freshman Hadleigh Richard scored the first two M-E goals, on assists from Courtney Holley and Bella Mastendino. Mastendino, who was named to the First Team All-Star roster, would net the third goal. It was her eighth of the season and was assisted by Evelyn Lantz.
The Hornets travel to Amesbury today, and will then finish up their season at home on Thursday against Georgetown.
|October 28, 2014
|The big story of the 2014 golf season was Amesbury's undefeated run through the league, compiling an 11-0 record to claim the Kinney Division crown and the best record for the entire league. The Indians finished the regular season a perfect 15-0 overall, and they even played a part in determining who would win the Baker Division title. On the final day of the season Amesbury hosted Hamilton-Wenham, who came into the match with an 8-2 record and a one-game lead over Triton in the loss column. A win would give the Generals the outright title, however Amesbury would win the day, dropping H-W into a tie with the Vikings.
The Cape Ann League Open was held on October 16th at Far Corner Golf Course in Boxford. Pentucket's Krystal Knight became the first female golfer to win the event, and she was also selected as the Kinney Division Player of the Year. Other First Team All-Stars, based on their finishes at the Open, were Ryan Delaney from North Reading, John Seward (Triton), Tyler Stansbury (N.R.), Mike Waisnor (Lynnfield), Brock Reardon (Masconomet), Nick Eliopoulos (Lynf), Kyle Nelson (Georgetown), Ben Bichet (M-E), and Paddy Flahardy (Amesbury.) Bichet was named the Baker Division Player of the Year.
Hamilton-Wenham's Billy Corley and Amesbury's George Dodier were named Coaches of the Year for the Kinney and Baker Divisions, respectively. North Reading and Pentucket shared the Sportmanship Award for the Kinney Division, while Ipswich earned the award for the Baker.
Six of the twelve Cape Ann League teams qualified for the state tournament this fall, with a seventh falling just short. Amesbury, Hamilton-Wenham, and Triton were joined by Lynnfield, Manchester-Essex, and North Reading in the Division 3 North tournament, held at Hillview Golf Course on October 21st. With only the top three teams moving on, Amesbury grabbed the third spot with a team score of 308. The Generals and Vikings were not far off the pace, each finishing at 313. Manchester-Essex came in at 320, with Lynnfield and North Reading finishing at 322.
Amesbury played in the Division 3 Finals on Monday, October 27th at the Black Swan Country Club in Georgetown, finishing 6th in the state. While the Indians played for the team title, there were several CAL players who were there playing for the state individual title. Among those was Manchester-Essex's Ben Bichet, who was the top finisher in the North sectional, along with Triton's Brad Small and North Reading's Ryan Delaney.
While the Masconomet and Pentucket teams did not qualify for the tournament, each sent a player to the Division 2 North sectional round. The Chieftain's George May and the Sachems' Dan Beaton each played for the chance to move on to the individual state finals at the Glen Ellen Country Club in Millis. Beaton finished with a respectable 82, but the cut for the finals was 80. May shot a 77, good for a second place tie and a trip to the finals on October 27th.

|Field Hockey:Manchester-Essex @ Rockport
|The JV and Varsity field hockey games between Manchester-Essex and Rockport have been moved to Coach Ed Field in Manchester due to field conditions.
|October 16, 2014
|Field Hockey:Ipswich @ Peabody
|Ipswich coach Sarah Merullo brought her team to Peabody on Wednesday afternoon needing a single point to qualify for the state tournament. Pam Grant, who coached Sarah at Manchester-Essex several years ago, and the Tanners were in a little more desperate situation, needing 9 points over their final 6 games to extend their season.
The teams were scoreless with nine minutes left in the game, when McKinley Karpa scored off an assist by Julia Glavin. Kelsey Daly started the play by intercepting a ball and passing up to Delaney Whooley, who found Glavin. Karpa would add an insurance goal with three minutes remaining, scoring off a corner, with the assist coming from Lauren Gallant. The Tigers surrendered no defensive corners and put forth exceptional midfield play, team defense, and passing.
So the Tigers have clinched their tournament berth, while Peabody still needs those nine points. The two teams will meet once more on October 24th, the final game of the regular season for both teams.
|October 16, 2014
|Field Hockey:Hamilton-Wenham @ Masconomet
|With a 5-0 win over visiting Hamilton-Wenham, Masconomet improved to 10-0-4 in league play and needs just a tie in either of its last two league games in order to secure at least part of the Kinney Division title.
Scoring for the Chieftains were Sophie Adams, Paige Boucher, Alexa Puleio, Laura McArdle, and Nell Criscione. Katherine McVey had two assists. Puleio, Bella Villote, and Tessa Ives had the other assists.
Hamilton-Wenham goalie, Maddie Werner, battled hard in net and made some amazing saves. The Generals are now 3-8-3 and host North Reading in Friday.
|October 16, 2014
|Field Hockey:Amesbury @ Newburyport
|Newburyport punched their ticket to the post-season with a 4-1 win over Amesbury on Wednesday at the Amesbury Sports Park. Carole Marino scored twice for the Clippers, who improved to 8-3-3 overall. Carly Siemasko and Meghan Stanton netted the other Newburyport goals, with Stanton and Olivia Thirkell picking up assists.
|October 15, 2014
|Golf:Hamilton-Wenham @ Amesbury
|Amesbury capped off an undefeated season at home on Tuesday afternoon, defeating Hamilton-Wenham 174-140. Fred Halloran and Kyle Patterson were the high scorers on the day for the Indians, earning 32 quota points each. Lowell Deschenes was next with 31, followed by Paddy FLahardy (30) and Brendan Foley (27).
While securing their 15-0 record, Amesbury also helped rival Triton secure a co-championship in the Kinney Division. The loss meant an 8-3 league record for the Generals, which dropped them into a tie with Triton.
|October 15, 2014
|Golf:River Rivals Tournament
|On Monday, Amesbury, Pentucket, and Triton all traveled to New Meadows Golf Club to join Newburyport in the annual River Rivals Tournament. Scoring for the non-league matches was done by the regular system of totaling the top 6 scores for each team. Amesbury came out on top with 170 points to go 3-0 on the day, followed by Triton with 166, Newburyport with 142, and Pentucket with 137.
The River Rival portion of the event added the next two high scores for each team, and once again Amesbury came out on top, but only by a single stroke. Scoring was 207 for the Indians, 206 for Triton, 170 for Pentucket, and 168 for Newburyport.
The King Rat was Triton's Jon Seward, who shot even par for 36 points. Finishing second on the day was Pentucket's Krystal Knight with 32 points. Paddy Flahardy and Lowell Deschenes each earned 31 points for Amesbury, and the Clippers were led by Griffin Brown's 30 points.
|October 15, 2014
|Volleyball:Danvers @ Hamilton-Wenham
|Hamilton-Wenham fell to Danvers in a very competitive 3-1 match. The deciding fourth set went to 28-26 in favor of the visiting Falcons.
The Generals got a solid team effort, with a serving rate of 95%. Maddie O'Connor, a senior captain, served 18 times with no misses. H-W had 43 kills, with 13 coming from freshman Ali Kimball and 15 from freshman Lauren Flynn. The Generals had 61 digs, with 14 from Kimball and 12 from junior Libero captain Jessica Reardon.
|October 15, 2014
|Boys Soccer:Triton @ North Reading
|North Reading coach Mark Bisognano collected his 100th career win in soccer on Tuesday as the Hornets defeated visiting Triton 5-2. The win keeps the tournament bound North Reading within striking distance of first place Mascnomet.

Very happy with my purchase and look forward to buying from this company again. I also like their straightforward inventory system. If it's not on their website, they don't have it! They also list how many of a particular item is left."
Jasper215 said: "I'm not sure online ordering can be any easier that it is with LG! Their online processing is one of the best I've ever used and EVERYTHING you choose from the catalog is in stock - not to mention you'll enjoy some of the best prices available! Shipping costs were very reasonable and delivery was made lightening fast. LG communication regarding order processing and shipping status is outstanding. You can order from LG with complete confidence."
HardWired56 said: "Every order I place gets here in 3 days-the shipping is fast and cheap and the online availability of inventory is the best. I have bought the Lake City reman .45acp and .380-super happy with both rounds. Ok, then I buy several different types of .223/5.56 just to see how they shoot-all were as expected and good stuff. Finally I had to buy more .22longs. Got Federal, Federal Champions and Winchester. I bought 3 bricks of ammo for what I would pay for 2 around here (not counting wasted gas and time). I will order again - Great work folks!"

2013 Goals & 2012 Recap
Find a Conversation
|Fri, 11-30-2012 - 2:16pm
wow, not only another month is coming to a close, but the entire year is winding down......
here is the thread for the 2012 goals:
I noticed some of the posts were incomplete, but we'll see what we can recover.
So - did you set goals in 2012? What were they and how did you do? Are you happy with your progress? If not, you still have a month to get happy, lol!
and what do you hope to achieve in 2013? Personal, financial and everything in between, share with us so we can support, encourage and cheer for you!
|Wed, 12-12-2012 - 9:25am
It took a while for DH and I to come to agerement on our goals. I wrote my ideal goals for the year, he wrote his and then we went through them to see what was best for our family as a whole.
Put $500 a month aside for 2014 Grand Canyon rafting trip plus 1/2 of any gift money he and I receive-trip will be between $9,000 abnd $10,000 for the 3 of us
Put $300 aside for other vacations plus any overage of budget from commissions
Pay off half of the car-use any tax refund to put towards also
Keep our grocery budget in check $170 week
Eat out no more than 6 times a month (includes lunches)-make eating out memorable-try new places
Stick to education budget of $5,000 for the year for DS--plan wisely
Both of us need to get in better shape-still working on an exact plan
Continue family night one night a week, game night on the weekend, and 3 date nights a month ( DH and DS, DS and myself, DH and myself)
Redo both bathrooms-hire out
Keep our retirement and college contributions where they are now will revisit and raise in 2 years when car is paid off
Keep EF at $3000-if dipped into replace before adding to vacation funds
|Mon, 12-03-2012 - 12:48pm
Yes Dee....but they are talking of taking away the tax advantage for mortgage interest. In the same sense, they're still messing with what we bring home because we will have to adjust our deductions. :(
|Sat, 12-01-2012 - 11:50pm
I don't think I posted any goals for 2012 but my singlular goal was to become debt free. As of December 20 2012 I'll be 100% debt free :) This was also the year that I relocated to join my now husband and we got married this past October. In many ways 2012 was a banner year for us!
Goals for 2013
- 1. I have $25,500 of contribution room in my TFSA. The goal will be to max out the entire amount!
- 2. DH & I need to save $5K towards immigrations fees.
- 3. To be more consistent in working out. I'd like to average a minimum of 3 days/week for 30 minutes each session. I will start tracking this in January 2013.
- 4. Increase my income by 10% over what I currently make.
- 5. Do my part to nurture and strengthen our marriage and encourage DH to do the same. We already have a wonderful relationship so I'd like for us to continue to work on that.
- 6. Enjoy some of my income within reason and not be so scared to spend money on myself from time to time...pamper myself!
|Sat, 12-01-2012 - 3:04pm
I posted goals last year for the first time but it cut off all of the actual goals...lol.
2013 Goals:
1) Pay off all credit cards remaining.
2) Start saving for a new-to-me vehicle with low mileage. Hoping to find something for < $20,000 with a 6,000-10,000 down payment. Hope to be able to make this purchase by the beginning of March.
3) Work on myself. Mentally and physically. I am unhappy with myself. This is not my normal state of being, so I need to kick up the mental breaks and the physical activity. I need to also take breaks with the big kids, as they are showing signs of resentment in my new path (they miss me and I completely underestimated how much they would react/act out).
4) Complete my MBA by December :) Although it is putting a strain on my family, slowing down will only prolong my absence.
5) Pay off aforementioned vehicle by December. This is lofty, but I think I can do it :)
|Sat, 12-01-2012 - 12:54pm
Awww no idea on 2012 goals. Can we seach for the 2012 thread. I tried but it didn't work.
Increase net worth
Possibly pay off truck or drastically reduce the total on that loan
Increase savings in the house fund
Increase other savings
|Sat, 12-01-2012 - 12:44pm
I did not set goals, at least on the DSG, for 2012 but I'm definitely thinking ahead to 2013.
My primary goal for 2013 is to pay off all our credit card debt. We need to do this because we will need to start paying on the college loans we took out for DD. She'll have loans of her own to pay back so this is really up to us. They are 10 year loans, but I intend to really ramp up those payments because DS is following closely behind.
Personally, I am trying to lose a total of 15 pounds. I've taken about 3 off and that has stayed off. Some days I'm a little lighter. I'm looking at my diet and exercise routine to see where I need to make changes.
In all aspects of my life, I'm trying to be more mindful: mindful eating, mindful spending, mindful communication. It seems to be helping so I intend to keep it up this coming year.
|Sat, 12-01-2012 - 8:01am
So, I know I set goals for 2012 but I can't remember all of them and they don't appear in the thread. Bummer :(
I know one of my goals was to wipe out all but one of our credit cards. We didn't achieve that. Right now only one of our cards is paid off and while I'm bummed about that, I'm hoping this year will be better.
Goals for 2013:
1) Finishing paying off the cards. I'm hoping we can squeeze enough money each month to get all but our highest balance cards down. I truly think this is manageable. Even if we can't squeeze the money out monthly I'm sure some of our tax refund will go to that.
2) Cut the loan on my car in half. Right now we owe right at 10k on my car. We've had this loan for an unspeakable amount of time. We need to hurry up and get rid of it but I'll settle for half gone.
3) Continue getting regular exercise. I have to do this for my sanity. Not to mention that when I'm at the gym I'm not spending money.
4) Read more with my munchkin. I've been trying to read a book a day with her this year and I was doing decently until this last quarter :-/

Fried chicken in Crisco
- Monica Aug 26, 2013 02:00 PM
I told my husband to buy the smallest container of Crisco but he bought the largest one. Now I am looking for a way to use it. Fried chicken sounds good. Does it yield better result than using canola oil?
re: pinehurst
What's your neighbor's secret of great tasting chicken other than using Crisco?
re: Monica
Monica, I just got around to asking her last night. I'm sorry for the late reply. She says she puts the chicken in whole mix and beaten egg (mixed) instead of buttermilk before the flour mixture. She was coy about the rest. :-)
Work it into a dry yellow or white cake mix and it makes an excellent cobbler toping. You can definatly tell the difference when a breaded item is fried in a solid shortening compared to oil. Much better.
Sadly, yes it does yield a better result.
IIRC, when Alton Brown did the "Fry Hard II" episode on Good Eats, he recommended using vegetable shortening. I've tried it. He's right, those refined, hydrogenated fats make excellent fried chicken.
re: MrsPatmore
Why "sadly"?
re: jmckee
Sadly probably because those hydrogenated fats are so nasty for your body. Lard is actually healthier than Crisco...but it is definitely true that Crisco yields the best results in some foods ...results that can't be topped by using other forms of fat.
I'm of the belief that there's nothing wrong with using Crisco for some things, occasionally. It's just not something to use every day.
re: The Professor
Exactly my thoughts!
re: The Professor
*shrug* I don't fry chicken every day. Maybe twice a year. And if the frying medium is hot enough, and you don't crowd the chicken, very little of it is absorbed.
re: jmckee
re: The Professor
Not really true, unfortunately.
The flabby, greasy texture you get from batter that's under-fried is not actually more oil on the chicken, but water that hasn't evaporated. Ironically, well-crisped crusts absorb more oil but feel less greasy.
re: cowboyardee
I think there are more factors, such as whether the oil was hot enough when the food was put in to immediately begin the evaporation process of the moisture in/on the food, and also whether the food was removed from the oil at the right time (just as the water supply in/on the food becomes depleted).
Basically, the way I understand it is that the oil/moisture door only swings one way at a time, and if the moisture is exiting, the oil can't enter.
Someone more knowledgeable than me should chime in so that I don't keep talking. ;-/
re: sandylc
For the most part, you're right. My point was that limp greasy-seeming fried food typically retains less oil than crispy fried food, and also that higher oil temperature will get you more oil absorbed into food, not less.
Depending on what you're frying, oil does not have to be hot when food is added. Nor does it have to be at full temperature throughout the cooking process (people mess this up with chicken all the time, cranking the heat when the chicken is added even though you get better results by letting the heat recover slowly). The amount of oil absorbed depends on how violently you cook off excess moisture (i.e. the temperature of the oil), the kind of batter or coating you use. To a lesser extent, it also matters how long you let the food cook in oil after the excess moisture has been evaporated, but oil is absorbed into the crust more or less immediately as water is evaporated.
For a more detailed description of how oil is absorbed in frying, check out this link:
re: MidwesternerTT
I actually bought it to make 'crusty cream cheese frosting' for my carrot cake which makes a pretty and neat looking cake.
Dnish pastry apple bars sound good. Please do share your recipe, thanks!
re: Monica
Danish Pastry Apple Bars (recipe from a co-worker 1976)
400 degrees, 60 minutes, Frost while warm
2 1/2 Cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. salt
1 Cup lard or shortening
1 egg yolk, plus enough milk to make 2/3 C with egg yolk
1 Cup crushed corn flakes
8 - 10 medium apples pared, cored and thinly sliced
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 egg white
1 Tblspoon water
1 Cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
Cut shortening into flour and salt. Add milk and egg yolk mixture, blend with fork. Roll half of the dough to fill jelly-roll pan (10 1/2 x 15 1/2 rimmed cookie sheet). Crust will be very thin. Sprinkle this bottom crust with crushed corn flakes.
Peel & slice apples and place over crust and flakes.
Sprinkle with sugar & cinnamon.
Roll out other half of dough (will be very thin) and place on top.
Pinch edges to seal top and bottom crusts.
Beat egg white stiff and brush over crust.
Bake in preheated oven at 400 degrees for 60 minutes or until done.
While bars are still warm, pour frosting mixture over warm crust
re: MidwesternerTT
I make these, only with butter.
re: MidwesternerTT
Thank you, I will try this. I think I am going to use 1/2 cup of Crisco and 1/2 cup of butter for that butter flavor.
re: MidwesternerTT
MidwesternerTT, I would love to have your sugar cookies recipe. My granddaughter asked me for a good sugar cookie recipe, and I had to tell her I did not have one. So, I would love to share yours with her.
re: Wtg2Retire
Wtg2Retire - Here's a two-fer -- My own favorite one, "Rich Sugar Cookies" that I've made since I was 10 and by choice became the family's cookie-baker. And also the one mentioned that uses Crisco and is perfect for cutout cookies.
Rich Sugar Cookies
375 degrees 10-14 minutes
Makes about 4 dozen
1 Cup sugar
1 Cup margarine or butter, softened
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 ½ Cup flour
½ teaspoon soda
¼ teaspoon salt
Sugar (about ¼ c in a small dish) to dip cookie stamp/glass in.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Cream margarine & sugar. Add egg & vanilla. Add flour, soda & salt. Mix well. Form into 1 inch balls Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten with star-pattern glass dipped in sugar (or a cookie stamp, or fork). Dough also can be rolled out and cut with cookie cutters. Bake 10-14 minutes until barely tan on edges - watch closely those last few minutes, since cookies can go from done to overdone in 1 minute. Cool on wire racks
Ethels Sugar Cookies for Cutouts - No Dairy
Great flavor and texture for a cutout sugar cookie
Makes about 4 dozen. Wait to preheat oven - dough must chill 1 hour.
400 degrees, 6 - 8 minutes
3/4 C. shortening - or combo w/ part butter (Butter Flavor Crisco recommended)
1 C. sugar
2 eggs
1/2 tsp. vanilla (for variation can also use lemon flavoring)
2 1/2 C. Gold Medal flour (recipe was on their bag...)
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
Mix well shortening, sugar, eggs and flavoring. Blend flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in. Chill at least 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Roll dough to 1/8 inch thick on floured board. Cut with 3-inch cookie cutter. Place on ungreased baking sheet. Bake 6 - 8 minutes.
re: MidwesternerTT
Thank you so very much, Midwesterner. With cookie season coming up, these will be very handy to have on hand.
re: MidwesternerTT
My mom's "secret" was always to use half butter and half crisco in the toll house cookies- it makes them taller/thicker and they don't spread as much when baking
re: MidwesternerTT
Midwesterner: can your 1st cookie recipe be used in a cookie press/spritzer? I'm to receive my new Oxo cookie press today, and I've read that not all sugar cookie recipes will work for spritzing.
re: INDIANRIVERFL
The "new" Crisco does make fine pie dough, but the dough is softer than I would like. Use a light touch and refrigerate the dough (worked into a ball and wrapped in waxed paper or clear wrap) before rolling.
It is my understanding that the new Crisco does not have hydrogenated fat. The old Crisco did, as did corn oil margarine which I used for years to make excellent pie crust.
re: sueatmo
Got scared a bit..because it was my understanding that new Crisco doesn't have hydrogenated fat. I'd never use margarine(I freaked out after hearing that chemical structure of margarine is very close to plastic!) ...
re: Monica
I use half butter, half Crisco for pie dough. You can scoop out the proper amount for a pie dough, break up into pebble-like pieces, and freeze in Ziploc bags until you're ready to bake.
re: Monica
Not to defend margarine because its disgusting but most things are a molecule or two away from plastic.
Here's the Snopes explanation of the margerine/plastic myth: http://www.snopes.com/food/warnings/b...
re: C. Hamster
Not sure why margarine is disgusting. I made wonderful baked goods with Fleischmanns and later Mazola for years. It made wonderful piecrust.
We now know that solidified fat is probably hydrogenated, and therefore not healthy. But the baked products it produced were good, if you used good quality stuff.
Oh yes- and add some bacon grease for the absolute best fried chicken ever.
re: EWSflash
Ditto the added bacon fat, with an added dash of peanut oil for ooomff. When done frying and the oil has slightly cooled, strain it and save it in a container in your fridge until next time - it can be recycled a few times before becoming too dark to use.
re: EWSflash
in my fridge, i've got a container of saved bacon fat and a tub of duck fat too. haha..looks like I am going to have fried chicken fried in crisco, bacon fat, duck fat and peanut oil too.
Also, french fries. and you can save it in the fridge to re-use. I know people who have done that frying chicken, but I have not. Only frying potatoes and onions.
I fried chicken in crisco with a large spoonful of bacon fat...made sure the temp was at around 350..i 'marniated' my chicken thighs in buttermilk and salt overnight...fried them in my 12 inch Lodge skillet and I wasn't happy with the result. They were burnt outside and raw inside. I had to put them back to the oven to finish the chicken. People were waiting for dinner and it was a bit of disaster. I consider myself a decent cook and this was one of the most disasterous cooking events for me. I didn't think they tasted that great either. I will definitely stick with Popeyes chicken next time. and oh my, all the greasy mess I made.
re: Monica
The Alton Brown recipe says 325 degrees for the fat, and 10 minutes per side for cooking time.
Other recipes call for fat at 350 initially, but reduce heat to "medium" immediately after adding the chicken and 12 minutes per side.
re: MidwesternerTT
I let the tempt rise to 350 and when I added chicken pieces to the pan, the temp fell to about 250..and then went up to somewhere between 300 and 320.....i fried them about 10 -13 min each side.....burn outside and bloody inside...i think my problem was that I used rather large pieces of chicken thighs from Costco...I should have used smaller pieces..if I were going to use large pieces, I should have deep fried..not pan fried.
re: Monica
I know I'm late with this response but you should have heated your Crisco to 375F. then when you added the chicken, it would have dropped to 350F which is where you want the temp to stay consistent at (I learned this years ago after working at restaurants). The up & down with the temperature is where you went wrong. Next time you want to give it a go and you want to use large pieces of chicken, put no more than 4-5 pieces at a time depending on your skillet size.
That said, my mother & grandmother never deep fried chicken; they always shallow fried in a cast iron skillet. My grandmother always used a combination of lard & Crisco which made for the most sublime chicken you could ever want to eat. It's not a matter of you using large pieces of chicken that your frying didn't work.
Consistent oil temperature and NOT crowding the pan is what works.
re: Cherylptw
i honestly don't think 375 would have made much difference. I cooked maybe 3 pieces of chicken in 12 inch lodge skillet.
re: Monica
I do... the fact that your oil was at different temperatures IS the reason why it never cooked on the inside before it burned on the outside. Question: did you add that bacon fat? And if you did, was it strained fat only or did it have bacon crumb residue in it from frying the bacon. If so, it probably burned the grease. If not, I stand by the fluctuation of temperatures...Unless you didn't add enough grease in the pan to begin with; that will cause chicken to burn also
re: Monica
Most every fried chicken recipe I've ever followed (time and temp) has resulted in burned outsides and bloody insides. I finally lowered the temperature and took my time and am getting closer to being successful.
Alton Brown is notorious with me for directing poor hapless souls into using too-high temperatures on their stoves. I'm not afraid of HI and I use it to sear, etc., but if I used it every time he has recommended it, my house would have burned down long ago!
re: sandylc
We've discussed this before, many times, but no one believes us. The secret, and we've proven this over and over again, is to avoid the dairy completely. No buttermilk dipping, dredging or brining. It adds less to the flavor than everyone thinks, does little to tenderize and all that milk sugar just burns.
I could never get my chicken to come out right until I went back to how we used to do it when I was a kid and I worked at KFC. A thin milk wash which was more water than anything else, just to get a hint of brown.
A simple brine is all you need, but if you insist on all that gloppy buttermilk, be sure to shake it all off before you go into the flour. You can certainly go with other acids to get that tenderizing effect and sour punchy flavor without the consequent burning. I don't find it necessary. First a salt and seasoning brine, then a quick dip into a very diluted milk wash, maybe a 25% milk concentration.
Here we show you how:
More on point, yes, Crisco is awesome. A solid shortening is all we used at KFC.
re: acgold7
@acgold7 I believe you!
re: acgold7
Mama Dip's, a famous NC restaurant known for it's chicken, only brines the chicken then tosses in heavily salt-and-peppered flour (using a lot more than one would imagine was necessary) and fries. Nothing more. It's amazingly good chicken.
re: acgold7
I have honestly never heard that about putting dairy in fried chicken! Thanks for the video link - I will try your way next time. I am sure that it will trump the Bouchon recipe I did last month - while it technically turned out very well, the seasoning was just too much - it overshadowed the chicken entirely.
re: Monica
I will definitely stick with Popeyes chicken next time...
I've been fortunate enough to have met a diverse group of home and professional cooks over the last 50 years. I've tried many different ethnic versions ....and fast food outlets over the years. One of the many beliefs out there is that home fried chicken is superior to fast food outlets. I would disagree. I've traveled the entire country and have been to places noted for their Signature House Special....it was very good, but let's get real...it's all very good, but it's just a seasoned coating on chicken.
My motto is ....if you can't make it any better than what is available to be purchased in your neighborhood...don't bother.
Popeye's is one of those things it's just easier to purchase and be satisfied without all the expense and mess you have noted.
I agree completely.
re: fourunder
I tend to agree as well, and my fried chicken was actually quite good. But my deep fryer takes only 6 pieces at a time, so it was 3-4 batches to get what I consider a decent quantity for dinner with guests and some leftovers (because I love leftover friend chicken!). Along with the marinating in buttermilk and breading, the entire process seemed to take half my day and left me extremely grateful for the ability to walk into to Popeye's and leave with a lot of chicken - even if mine was better, it was not *that much* better. Oh and my house doesn't get stinky either!
re: fourunder
Yeah, no more American style fried chicken for me at home.
I have successfully made fried chicken thigh meat Asian style at home and it was a success. I used boneless thigh meat, marinated it in soy sauce, garlic, ginger, mirin over night, dusted it with corn starch and fried it in dutch oven and it was really good. I made a big batch for international day and every single piece was gone. My husband always begs me to make it again but i hate the cleaning part of frying.
re: Monica
good comments and advice here. I do both buttermilk and not-buttermilk brine overnight, depending if i have b'milk in the house @ time. Crisco and bacon-dripping for pan frying both chicken and fish (bream, red breast, cat-fish). Cook the hush puppies after the fish.
But the key to well-cooked seems to be _room-temperature_.
I had a major fight w/a friend over this issue - she's quite obsessed about bacteria/food safety and is convinced that allowing ingredients to come to room temp creates a serious health risk, even eggs, milk - anything protein.
She refused to eat chicken that was @ room temp before frying.
For me, room temp chicken cooked thoroughly all the way to the bone, crisped well (heat was med-high, then reduced to med.) and tasted great (over-night mild salt brine w/red pepper). I also cut breasts into 2 pieces and even thighs also if huge). I've found inexperienced cooks I've worked with try to cook whole legs (drumstick and thigh connected) and large breasts w/wing still attached. They are well intentioned but don't understand these pieces are too thick
and awkwardly sized to cook right. And these folks (many) lack some pretty basic skills: do not know how to cut up pieces to 'reasonable' size. I asked ? and the most common answer is that they bought a package of already cut up chicken and this is how the pieces came so they assumed it must be ok for any cooking. they were sort of willing to learn but had no knife skills much, and usually no decent knife.
The idea of trimming and sizing any ingredient yourself seemed wierd and hard - they assumed all that 'work' should be done in advance by somebody else. I guess its the 'convenience' mind-set
anybody else see this?
anyway - room temp chicken fries well.
Does Loretta Lynn count as a food authority on this subject? Because she swore by Crisco shortening . . . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLGKvr...
Stock up on Crisco now, because the FDA today is starting the process of banning outright all added transfats (which includes even transfats in trace levels) as no longer legally safe.
Or get used to rendering bacon or poultry fat, or using coconut or other vegetable oils that are solid at room temperature.
re: Karl S
I just bought a gallon of liquid, and have most of a tub of solid from BJs. Going to put them in the safe right now.
re: Karl S
...or sell them on eBay!
re: Karl S
Crisco has virtually no trans-fats, and hasn't for some time. It's legally allowed to say it has none, or "Zero grams per serving," but it can say this if it has less than half a gram per serving. It's almost entirely Soybean Oil with some Coconut and Palm Oils, admittedly Partially Hydrogenated, to keep it solid at room temp.
It'd be a 30-second tweak to alter the formula to conform to whatever the nanny-state FDA decrees because they've assumed we're too stupid to decide for ourselves what we choose to eat. It's not going away any time soon.
re: acgold7
<<<<they've assumed we're too stupid to decide for ourselves what we choose to eat. >>>>>
Clearly many people are - have you walked through a grocery store lately and seen what is being offered in the name of food?
re: sandylc
+1 on that!
Though it is odd that they would ban trans-fat, yet refuse to require mandatory GMO labeling on food products.
re: The Professor
What's odd about that? GMO labeling is not something about which there is any scientific heath consensus in the US.
re: Karl S
LOL. But most other countries have either banned the stuff or require labeling.
Even if there is no clear consensus, there is plenty of _concern_ about GMO foods in the scientific community.
My question is this: if there is no concern, why is the food industry spending millions of dollars to fight clear labeling of GMO containing foods? Environmental impacts have already been identified and some health concerns are beginning to surface.
But all of that aside, it seems to me that those people who wish to avoid such foods should be able to make an informed choice.
That is currently virtually impossible.
re: The Professor
Well, actually not "most other countries" have done this, but the EU and Australia and NZ and then some other jurisdictions whose food regulations are often more notional than real. Again, the science on transfats is much firmer and even so it takes the FDA this long; I can't see the FDA moving forwards on GMO labeling until there is a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate in favor of that step. State-level action is more likely, but as we can see it's difficult. I think the transfat debate is an interesting *contrast* to the GMO debate.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) - The Jacksonville Jaguars are having to shuffle their offensive line.
Right tackle Austin Pasztor says he broke his hand in Thursday night's preseason loss at Chicago. Pasztor says he fractured the fourth metatarsal in his right hand and has no timetable for his return.
Cam Bradfield is expected to start in Pasztor's place next week when the Jaguars play at Detroit.
Even before Pasztor's injury, Jacksonville's line was unsettled. Center Mike Brewster has struggled in the preseason, prompting coaches to rotate four players at the key position against the Bears. Right guard remains an open competition, too, with Jacques McClendon and rookie Brandon Linder, a third-round draft pick from Miami, vying for a starting job.

I went gluten free in November and that wasn't too bad. 5 days ago I had to go dairy-free as well as I was getting sick from it. Since then I am starving, I mean literally hungry every second to the point that my stomach hurts. I can't sleep at night due to being so hungry. I am making sure I get lots of protein and I eat very healthy. I am trying to lose weight so I am on weight watchers and it was going fine until I cut out gluten and dairy. What could be causing this extreme hunger? I don't want to eat all the time or I'll gain weight.

Fat helps make you feel full and keeps you full. Have some good fat (about a tbsp) with 3 meals a day. It should also help provide energy if your body can break it down. I do this and my weight is stable. My weight is good! Good fat defined: butter, coconut oil, or olive oil.
Then too, sometimes I have days like that for unknown reasons when I am insatiably hungry. Hang on through them, because it does pass. I did feel more hungry during withdrawl.

November 2, 2009 in Nation/World
Elections will provide clues
Local races an indicator of voter attitudes
WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama isn't on the ballot. Neither are all members of Congress, nor most governors.
But to varying degrees, the outcome of a few disparate elections Tuesday could provide clues about how people – particularly independents, who typically determine a winner – feel about their country, their president and the party in power one year after Democrats won the White House.
The results also could provide important lessons for Democrats and Republicans a year before the first major electoral test of Obama's strength: 2010, when there are 37 races for governor, at least 36 in the Senate and all 435 in the House.
This year, Virginia and New Jersey are choosing governors, voters in upstate New York and Northern California are deciding who should fill two vacant congressional seats, and New York City and Atlanta are picking mayors. Maine will vote on whether to permit gay marriage while Ohio will choose whether to allow casinos.
To be sure, these races are hardly bellwethers; people are voting on local issues and personalities. Most voters in Virginia and New Jersey, for example, say their like or dislike of Obama won't drive their decision. Still, national forces such as the recession are having an effect.
This much is clear: Tuesday will give a picture of public attitudes in certain places and measure which party has energy on its side heading into a high-stakes election year. Some questions will be at least answered partially.
Here's what to look for:
Obama's coalition
The president in 2008 won by cobbling together new voters from traditional Democratic base demographics, particularly blacks, youth and Hispanics, along with disaffected Republicans and self-identified independents nationwide and in traditionally GOP-leaning states such as Virginia.
The unknown is whether those voters will stay with Democrats or turn out at all if Obama isn't on the ballot.
Both embattled Democratic Gov. Jon Corzine in New Jersey and Democratic candidate R. Creigh Deeds in Virginia desperately need party loyalists and Obama 2008 voters to swamp the polls.
Obama went in big in both states, campaigning on the Democrats' behalf and allowing his image to be used in TV ads for them, linking himself to their fate.
He didn't really have a choice. The Democratic base would have chafed at the party standard-bearer turning his back on the rank and file, and Obama's influence will be questioned regardless of whether Democrats win or lose the races.
Independents always have heft, but frustration across the country with both Republicans and Democrats is adding to it. How that anger manifests itself could signal anti-incumbent sentiment among a group that leaned left last year. Do independents stay home? Do they vote against the party in power?
Regardless, Democrats and Republicans almost certainly will have to revamp their strategies to ensure they're attracting both independents and base voters next fall.
Virginia may offer the best measure of independent voters' sentiments.
This longtime Republican stronghold has become a new swing state in presidential elections largely because of the swiftly growing far-flung suburbs outside Washington that are filled with independent-minded voters. Obama targeted such areas to become the first Democrat to win the state since 1964, and they will determine who wins Tuesday.

Most Arduino SPI tutorials show this simple but poor SPI bus design:
A much better SPI bus design can prevent conflicts. 3 simple improvements are needed:
Click "Read more" for details on these 3 steps.
Been working on making Adafruit_nRF8001 and the SD library work together. Details are on this forum thread, and also this one.
I am happy to report Windows 10 Preview build 9860 fixes the long-standing USB serial bugs, which impact nearly all Arduino compatible boards.
Windows 10 is finally going to support all class-compliant USB serial (eg, CDC-ACM) as well as Linux and Mac OS-X. Very exciting.
Earlier this summer, I worked on a tiny piece of the Embrace sculpture, for Burning Man 2014.
Inside were 2 hearts, one made here in Portland by Lostmachine Andy & other burners at Flat Rat Studios. I made electronics to gradually fade 4 incandescent light bulbs in heart beating patterns.
Click "Read more" for technical details and many more wonderful photos (taken by Sarah Taylor)....
When I started the Audio library, a nice GUI (like Puredata or Max/MSP) seemed an impossibly distant dream. Then, in this forum thread, I learned of the open source Node-RED project.
Over the last few days I've been coming up to speed on modern Javascript tools like jQuery and D3, to hack Node-RED into a GUI front-end. Much work still needs to be done before this is usable, but I'm pretty excited about the possibilities!
Update: a live demo page is now available. :)
Recently I've been working on an optimized ILI9341 display library, to take advantage of Teensy 3.1's more capable SPI hardware. Here's a quick video demo, so you can see how much of a difference it makes.
In the transition from 8 to 32 bit microcontrollers, on-chip SPI ports usually gain more sophisticated features. Special programming is needed to fully levergage these more powerful features. Merely recompiling code designed for simple SPI hardware on 8 bit hardware rarely acheives the best performance. As you can see in the video, optimizing for these features makes a pretty dramatic improvement.
Click "Read more" for the all the technical details...
For the last several weeks, I've been working on SPI transactions for Arduino's SPI library, to solve conflicts that sometimes occur between multiple SPI devices when using SPI from interrupts and/or different SPI settings.
To explain, a picture is worth 1000 words. In this screenshot, loop() repetitively sends 2 bytes, where green is its chip select and red is the SPI clock. Blue is the interrupt signal (rising edge) from a wireless module. In this test, the interrupt happens at just the worst moment, during the first byte while loop() is using the SPI bus!
Click "Read mode" for lots more detail.....
Recently I've been working to improve the Arduino SPI library, to better support multiple SPI devices with different settings, and SPI devices requiring interrupts.
Today I discovered a new problem while testing the HopeRF RFM69 wireless module.
Click "Read more" for details and the workaround I found....
Years ago, around the time DorkbotPDX's meetup moved from Vendetta to NW Lucky Lab, Ben Bleything brought LCDs from decommissioned point-of-sale terminals to the meetup. I did some reverse engineering to get them working!
At the time, I wrote 3 blog articles aboug the reverse engineering effort. Only one of them survived from the early days of this website. Recently, I found the original text those old 3 articles, and also a small pile of the LCDs... which I'll be giving away at upcoming meetings!
Click "Read more" for those 3 original articles with the fine details of reverse engineering (and source code) for these old LCDs....
Maker Faire went really well. I had a booth about the new audio library, and we also built a OctoWS2811 LED display for Freescale's booth.

Chess is hard. It involves mental, emotional and physical strain. What are the rewards? -Rick Garel
What attracts me about chess is "personal best ". It is the challenge of rising above the level you may find yourself at any particular time. We all strive to improve, regardless of the level of our play, and the understanding we have of the game. And I am attracted when it is done under tournament conditions, where there is serious opposition to you finding the best moves, and playing a game you are proud of. It gets the adrenalin going. Finally there is the great element of "surprise ". Some tactics are truly beautiful to behold. Best if you find them. But much appreciated even when played against you, and you didn't see it coming. -Bob Armstrong

Though far behind at WL14, i have sent following mail to the Director and chairman Admis comitte.
Respected Sir,
I am Anurika Arora, currently waitlisted at 14. As the admission process is drawing to a close I am afraid that even after putting my best and leaving my job for getting admission into IIM , I may be deprived from the opportunity to get admission in IIM-S, though few seats are likely to go vacant .
I humbly request your good honor that as the final list of IIM-K clearing waitlisted candidates is expected to come on 4th July , the admission process in IIM-S maybe continued for a few more days even after the registration date . As you would kindly agree that leaving the seats vacant in prestigious institute of IIM stature, whose pass out help build the nation, shall be a drain on national exchequer.
Yourself being at the helm of IIM Shillong and known to be person of taking exemplary decisions, I expect justice from your honor.
Anurika AroraIf more person will adress the issue to them, they may think twice before closing....ATB
Below is the reply I got from the Adcom person:
"Today is the day of registration after which we will close the admission process for 2013-15. Even if we call people from the waitlist to accommodate last minute withdrawals, we are sure they will not be able to reach IIM Shillong today for registration which is mandatory."
only hopes now with an intervention by the director....
Any chance for w/l 103 ???
Converted n joining :)
Do anybody have idea of how many seats are vacant as of now???
My earnest request to all the candidates who converted yesterday night (30th June) or may be before that and are not willing to join IIM-Shillong, please drop a mail to Admissions Office [email@example.com] stating that you don't wish to accept the offer. Please Puys put in this mail if you are not joining because now they will update the WL only if people put withdrawal request or say that don't wish to accept the offer(those who got offer yesterday). Unless until you do that seats will go vacant. Thanks in advance from a WL candidate.
converted and joining!
