Best Screencast & Video Editor Program for Windows to Make Tutorialsby Tiyo Kamtiyono on July 26, 2014 Permalink
Creating video tutorial is common for today bloggers and web publishers, because by creating video tutorial/screencast it will save you time and help create a better understanding to your readers. But choosing one that provides the best value for us is sometimes tricky, because there are so many screencast application we can try.
All this trying-things could be time consuming if you have never had any experience before. You have no imagination about what are the ideal capabilities of your video editor to make the best screencast ever. And the aim of this post is to tell you all about that with the best software of your choice based on your preference and budget.
The standard of screencast application/software?
Is it good to have an application that just grab your screen and publish the video as is? Or do you need a software which offer you editing capabilities to make your video more interesting, informative and convincing?
The answer is of course you need the one with more capabilities to shine-up your video, because good video (i.e with additional explanation bubble) will guarantee that your reader will understand what your video is about.
So, the best screencast software must;
- able to record your screen
- able to edit the video (cut and join, annotation, blurring, effect, transition, add audio, etc) prior to publishing.
And based on that standard and my experience doing some screencasts, I will provide you the best screencast application for windows with editing capabilities. Three applications will be discussed here; AVS Video Editor, BB Flashback and Camtasia Studio.
AVS Video Editor vs Camtasia Studio vs BB Flashback Pro
In this comparison, I will cover about the software interface, ease of use (adding text boxes / bubbles, blur) and the most important aspect is their price. I try all of these three software, not the full version eventually.
But I can tell you that the full version of Camtasia Studio and AVS Video Editor has no difference that the trial version, they works the same except the time limit of usage (Camtasia) and added watermark on video created using a trial version of AVS Video Editor.
For BB Flashback, it's a little bit different. The Express version didn't give me much shiny feature to try.
1. User Interface
Camtasia and AVS Video Editor, two of there screencast software for windows are relatively similar, divided into three main area; upper left as the source media we can put on the lower area mostly know as timeline, and the upper right is the preview area.
The Media Area consisted from several tabs, from images, video clips, audio, transition and so on. While the timeline is our battle ground to edit our video like cut them and add effect, texts, bubble, audio/music and every things else.
The difference between AVS Video Editor and Camtasia Studio timeline is that AVS Video Editor has predefined LINE of content (video, overlays, audio mix, picture, effect, texts etc). You can add more item in every line as we need more than one line. But you can not move their order from top to bottom.
In Camtasia Studio this slot of content named Track. Track is flexible enough to be filled with anything you wish, you can add different kind of content on the same track as long as they don't overlap. If you have content need to overlap each other you can create more tracks as you want.
BB Flashback Express player is the editor for video we recorded using BB Flashback Express Record. The interface is as pictured above.There is no media pane but toolbars on the upper part of the program, timeline and preview window at the bottom.
2. Ease of Use
These screen recorder software for Windows don't require a lot of time to learn, they are pretty simple to use. Screencast require basic edit, the problem in using these software are to know how to do things from the first time, once you know it, that is pretty simple.
BB Flashback Express
BB Flashback Express didn't give full capabilities to users, you need to buy the pro version to be able to edit your video. On the Express version, you can only edit the appearance of mouse highlight and setting rectangular area of the video. And then export the video into AVI or flash format.
But on the standard/pro version, you can add a lot more effect. Your video can even become interactive according to this video. Since I don't have more experience rather than record the movie and exporting into AVI, if you want to learn more about BB Flashback pro, you can check this videos.
Camtasia Studio
How easy is to use Camtasia Studio?
It's pretty easy, for bloggers needs like adding text caption, cutting, adding and adjusting music and back sound or even blurring your critical info on your tutorial, you just need to learn it a couple of time.
If you need to add a callouts for example, navigate away to callouts tab, then drop callouts you want to add on the timeline. Next, adjust the size and position by clicking the object on the timeline to activate the object on the video preview, then do your edit as simple as re-sizing an image in Word Processors.
Every item will display setting and customization option only by clicking the item on the timeline/track. Controlling an audio for example, once it inserted in the timeline and activated, you can increase and decrease the volume or add fade-in and fade-out in one click.
For a complete reference, you may check the video tutorial collection on their website.
AVS Video Editor
How easy is AVS Vedio Editor?
Not really that different than the previous software, AVS Video Editor only need a steep learning curve too.
It is better than Camtasia for you that want to have your assets better organized though, because as I write before, every kind of material has their predefined LINE.
Though you can add more than one movie or audio to overlap each other, you can find it quickly when you need to edit it because the you only need to look at their respective LINE, no need to look the whole line, up from the bottom.
Another operation like cutting your video and audio on the line happened in one click. Add video effect like blur then edit them in their effect properties also pretty easy. The effects seems to be endless to try.
3. Best Price
With all the easiness they offer that almost on the same level I think, these screen recorder software for Windows have a wide difference when it comes to pricing.
The most expensive one is Camtasia Studio that will require you to spend almost $300 to obtain it's license.
The second most expensive is BB Flashback Pro that will cost you $200 for it's ability to add annotation and full edit your video. While the Standard version which offer annotation feature, only cost you $90.
In other hand, AVS Video Editor will surprise you for only costing you $60 with additional 15 software from AVS4YOU.com. That is also far better option rather than their yearly subscription for $40. AVS4YOU Unlimited + Subscription, Yearly Subscription.
The Recap: Best screen recorder software for Windows:
Before you decide to buy which Screen Recorder software to start making tutorials, I want to recap this comparison just to make it more clear for you about the advantage/disadvantage.
BB Flashback Pro/Standard: Pretty simple editor with capabilities to make an interactive video.
Camtasia Studio: Very easy to use with unrestricted object positioning on every track. Theme is also a big advantage to help you build your branding identity.
AVS Video Editor: Simplicity at your hand, better management of objects on their predefined line. With additional video, audio, image and more multimedia tools at your disposal for a very low cost – lowest than all – it's irresistible. I personally choose AVS Video Editor!
BB Flashback: The UI is a bit uncommon, there is no blurring effect rather than adding balloon. Relatively expensive for that value.
Camtasia Studio: The unrestricted tracks could be advantage but also can make you feels like lost, especially if you work with video with a lot of objects in it. The most expensive one, too expensive I think.
AVS Video Editor: Need to click object properties to edit them further like re-size and moving things around.
This is all, i hope by this comparison I can help you to choose the best screen/video recorder software for you. Thanks for reading.

The Best Plugin as WordPress Stats Replacementby Tiyo Kamtiyono on July 7, 2014 Permalink
Knowing your blog/website statistic is a really important aspect of blogging you should took care of. Because without knowing anything about the numbers, you will be left blind and never know what really happened to your blog.
Knowing how people find your blog from search engine, how many times a post read, websites referring reader to your blog, what people are clicking on your website are really important. Because without this, you can never measure, you can never improve your website to the next level.
And when you start blogging using WordPress, I am sure WordPress Stats is the one that you already familiar and may be fallen in love with. Me too, been using it for a very long time, I can't resist to using it because it is simple and easy to understand.
Why We Need WordPress Stats Replacement?
If I fell in love with WordPress Stats, and WordPress Stats is simply working and display information we need, why should I think that it need a replacement?
Because it slow downs our blog, and we need more data now. Back to the day when JetPack as the bundle where WordPress Stats a part of not yet released, WordPress.com Stats is an independent plugin. It load relatively faster compared with today performance because the bundling effect.
JetPack sucking your server performance because it contain too many modules. It getting worse because there are more module added into Jetpack and it turned on by default.
You can see how JetPack eats your server resource compared to other by using P3 (Plugin Performance Profiler) Plugin.
The data displayed is simply working but not really informative. For example, when people looking for a certain term then come to our blog. We never know how good our blog ranked. Is it on the top of the page, in the middle of even the latest one from the listing?
We never know a user visiting what page after the first page and for how long he staying. You don't know where in the earth your reader is, you can see it on WordPress.com but so many of us are never do so when we on self hosted blog.
I hope that already make you aware how WordPress Stats bloat your blog and lack in features, now you perhaps asking what is the best WordPress Stats Alternative?
Best Plugin As WordPress Stats Alternative
There are at least about three plugins I ever try to use as WordPress stats replacement / alternative. I tried WP Slimstats, WassUp and Clicky. But for the best, Clicky is the best one for some reasons.
Even all three plugins over something like spy view to see what a visitor are looking at our blog, page after page. But Clicky do it far better, because it have a lot more features like the easy to understand UI though it have more data to show. This is one example how the data is easy to read;
You still can short the data by the number of action, the best traffic source etc. And the most useful feature that may be Google can't even in it with Google Analytics is heatmaps which showing you how user read (see) and click elements on your blog.
That's a killer feature, because you will know where user are looking at, you can do split testing to better your conversion from it, changing button color, changing position based on the data.
This is the full premium feature of clicky web analytics;
Need more info about Clicky, the best WordPress Stat Alternative?
I can't tell you so much more rather than let you see, dozen features brought to you by Clicky. Once you try it, I believe you will fall in love. Just check Clicky now.m4s0n501

That happen a lot to us. Especially if we just starting to build websites, I were struggling on this kind of problem too as I started blogging back in 2007.

Artist Darick Robertson signs at Third Eye Comics on Saturday, August 17, 2013 from 11:00am until 1:00pm!
Press Release:
Third Eye Faithful, we are totally excited to announce one of our biggest signings of the Summer with the arrival of Darick Robertson to Third Eye Comics this August! Darick is the legendary modern comics artist behind instant classics like TRANSMETROPOLITAN, THE BOYS, and HAPPY! He's done a ton of other excellent work as well, in fact, we'd be here all day if we ran through the list. Let me just say this: we're honored to have the man as a guest at our store this Summer in anticipation of his brand new creator-owned series, BALLISTIC, from BLACK MASK STUDIOS, the publishers of the recent 12 REASONS TO DIE comic.
What's Darick's new project, BALLISTIC, all about? Imagine the cult movie genius of REPO MAN (the '80s one!) distilled into a modern day heist story. A madcap sci-fi buddy adventure about a wanna-be bank robber and his best friend Gun, a drug-addicted, foul-mouthed, living gun, marks Darick Robertson's return to the hard sci-fi worldbuilding of his classic TRANSMETROPOLITAN mixed with THE BOYS' ultra-violence.
Darick will be signing at Third Eye Annapolis from 11AM-1PM on Saturday 8/17. We'll have plenty of copies of all his works available, including his new series, BALLISTIC!

Darick Robertson signs and sketches at Illusive Comics on Wednesday, December 19, 2012 at 4:00pm.
Press Release:
Illusive Comics & Games is hosting a signing with Darick Robertson on December 19, 2012 from 4:00-8:00pm. Robertson is the artist of Happy!, a new comic mini-series written by Grant Morrison; the first issue of which sold out in September before it hit the stands. He is also the original artist of The Boys, and the artist and co-creator of the long running series Transmetropolitan with Warren Ellis.
Copies of his books will be available for purchase, and attendees will receive a free sketch with purchase. Autographs will be supervised so that signed comics can be submitted to the CGC. The price for a supervised autograph is $38 per book, which includes shipping. Robertson will also be accepting a limited number of commissions.
Happy! is the story of hitman Nick Sax, who finds himself working with a young girl's imaginary, magical blue horse to save the girl from a pedophiliac Santa Claus. Not your typical Christmas comic, the book has mature themes and images.
Robertson began his career in comics at age 17, and has illustrated hundreds of comics in his more than twenty years in the industry. He has worked on many well-known titles from major comic publishers DC and Marvel, including New Warriors, Justice League, Wolverine, Spider-man, and Fury.

Outnumbered - If you are outnumbered by 3-1 or more you are at disadvantage.
Flanking - Flanking gives you advantage.
Feinting - Int/Wis/Dex check, DC is 10+ Opponent's Int or Wis bonus. Next attack has advantage.
Two Weapon Fighting - If Dex is less than 15, 2 attacks each at Disadvantage. If Dex is 16+, first attack is normal, second is at disadvantage. Neither weapon can be two-handed or versatile.
Taunting (drawing aggro) - Cha vs DC 10+Opponent's Int or Wis bonus. If successful opponent must attack you on its next action. Critical success means the opponent must make an Int or Wis save to attack someone else.
We also assign advantage/disadvantage to all rolls during social interaction based on RP. When the dirty, smelly, surly dwarf was trying to find a place to stay in the village one night we got lots of laughs from his bungled attempts. As he got more frustrated and more doors slammed in his face, the players were all having a great time because he would often roll really high on one die on really crappy on the other and even knowing that his blood and mud covered self was causing his problems the player was having too much fun playing the increasingly hostile fighter

42 pregnant and worried
Find a Conversation
|Wed, 01-11-2006 - 8:16pm
I'm excited about the pregnancy but with every pain or cramp I start to worry. I feel good about this baby since its due on my birthday. Sept. 23 2006. I dont want to call my obgyn just because I dont want to hear any bad news, but I will call on monday. I dont want to see that little heart beat again unless I know everything is going to be ok. I know that sounds selfish. I cant help it. We are not telling anyone this time until 12 weeks. I'm going to think lots and lots of good thoughts. I'm going to look at baby stuff till I cant look anymore. I'm sending good vibs to my little one. We have all girl birthdays in Sept. so I'm thinking we are having a girl.
Are there many of you going through this or have gone through this. I could use lots of support right now. Baby dust to all of you who are trying and good luck to those that are pregnant.
Thanks, Anne
|Wed, 01-11-2006 - 10:11pm
Congratulations on your pregnancy! I'm sending you hugs, good vibes and baby dust (pink of course) for your pregnancy. Although I haven't yet become pregnant for even the first time, I think we all have a bit of fear about losing a baby. I have been reading everything I can about TTC over 40 in the past month and I've discovered a lot more negative things than positive but I think we all know that it's very possible to have a healthy pregnancy over 40 and that is why this board is so important to all of us.
Best wishes and baby dust!
|Wed, 01-11-2006 - 11:03pm
Congrats on your pg!!!! I will be sending positively pink vibes your way!!! I think it is a good idea to go ahead and call your dr. even though I know it is scary I will be thinking of only good news for you!!!
|Thu, 01-12-2006 - 10:07am
CONGRATULATION Anne!!!!
I am so thrilled for you. Please baby vibe my way. I am also 42. I am ttc for my first.
I got pregnant in Nov 05, but lost it at 6 weeks. This month we tried again and I am waiting for the test this weekend. I wish I got BFP. So, we go through this together huh?
|Thu, 01-12-2006 - 12:16pm
Thanks for your response and yes it is stressful but try not to concentrate on the negative. I dont read any information on pregnancy over 40. If I did I would completly stress out and I realy dont think that enough studies have been done to give good acurate information. My grandmother gave birth to my mother while she was in her 40's. My mother was not the youngest child. All we can do is pray that we have a healthy and happy baby. The rest is in Gods hands. I have to learn to let go of the wheel. Good luck to you and God bless.
Your Friend,
|Thu, 01-12-2006 - 12:21pm
Yes we will go through this together. I just called my dr a little while ago and am going in for a checkup. We are a little concerned about some cramping I am having and since I am such high risk my dr wants to check everything. Its going to drive my husband nuts. I do hope you have a bfp this month. I'm sending you lots of baby dust and good wishes.
Your friend,
|Sat, 01-14-2006 - 6:04am
Hi Anne!!
I got a good news. I got two line!!!! I will go to see the doctor to confirm it Tues because Monday is a holiday. the office is close.
I wish we got a healthy pregnancy for the rest of nine months. Oh God!! Help us go through this easily. I already paid my due. This time is my turn to carry a healthy and beautiful baby to term.
|Sat, 01-14-2006 - 8:31pm
|Thu, 01-19-2006 - 1:55pm
I'm just checking in to see how your dr. appt. went. Is everything ok? Do you know how far along you are? Big ((Hugs)) and well wishes for you. Please let me know how you are.
Your friend,
|Thu, 01-19-2006 - 8:19pm
Hi Anne,
My doctor appointment went well I think. It is confirmed that I am pregnant. I just got the result today. My beta number is 2480 for 4w2d. I looked it up. It is in a high end and the nurse said it was higher than last time when I was pregnant in Nov. Tomorrow, I will go for a 48 hour repeat test and see if it double.
How are you? How is your cramp?
Let me know

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -- Brown County's top prosecutor says he will not pursue any charges against the teenager who brought a pellet gun to a Green Bay school.
A staff member at East High School reported seeing a boy with a gun in the hallway Monday. Police officers, with guns drawn, rushed to the school and cleared out summer school students. The 15-year-old boy and a girl who was with him were arrested and later released.
Police recommended the boy be charged with disorderly conduct, But, District Attorney David Lasee says there's no evidence the boy was threatening anyone with the weapon. Press-Gazette Media reports Lasee said he didn't know why the teen brought the gun to school.

Wild turkeys visit. So do herons, ducks, Canada geese, deer, rabbits, possums, woodpeckers, raccoons, groundhogs, muskrats, and hummingbirds… for starters. So join 'em! Leave the real world insanity behind for a getaway to Angel Mountain Cabin, nestled in the woods with a view that merely hints of Ashe County magic. You'll quickly see why the critters keep coming back!
Walk to the New River State Park and its maintained trails or down the nearby country road to the river itself. Hike the on-site trails to the top of Angel Mountain and feed the fish in the two ponds on the premises (just ignore their claims that they haven't been fed lately). Or do nothing. And then take a nap.
Early spring (Signs of 'real' Spring gallery here. Some day the 'boss' will put up a summer picture!).

We highly recommend Charleston Animal Society for the furballs…
and Katie and Paul as matchmakers!
The cabin shower is also sporting a spiffy new shower head!
And chocolate, too, of course.
So what are you waiting for… blueberries?

What to do with fresh pumpkin
We have a smallish to medium sized carving pumpkin that didn't get carved this year. I know that pumpkin is supposed to be full of vitamins and is actually pretty nutritious, but I've never used a fresh one in cooking before so I have no idea what to really do with it.
How do I prep it for cooking? I'd imagine you'd remove the seeds like you would with any other squash, but after that, I'm uncertain of what to do.
How much of it do you use in recipes (i.e., how much could I make with it per pound or ounce of pumpkin meat)?
Any recipes other than desserts?
rweater, I use fresh pumpkin for all of my pumpkin recipes- pie, bread, curry, ravioli, soup, bread pudding, you name it. I generally cut it into quarters, remove the seeds, give a light spray of oil, and roast until soft, scoop out the guts, and cuisinart them to make sure they aren't too stringy, then freeze in one or two cup portions. Then I use it in the same proportion as canned.
That said.... I always use sugar pumpkins for eating, never carving pumpkins, even small ones. Perhaps someone else has tried carving pumpkins ith good results?
There have been a lot of pumpkin threads lately, so try doing a search as well.
re: happybellynh
I cooked up my son's jack'o'lantern this year. I don't know which type of pumpkin it was - it was much more watery than the sugar pie pumpkins we normally eat, but it had a 3 1/2 inch thick flesh - more than most jack'o'lantern. Boy it was festive to carve.
I carved in on Halloween afternoon, so there wasn't any rotting issues.
Anyway, cut in into big chunks, roasted it a LOng time. The flesh was charred, pureed it, drained it very well, squeezing out the water. I was left with decent pumpkin puree. I used some in tacos last night, incorporated into a mole. My boys had it in their oatmeal this morning, or with some brown sugar and cinnamon. I mix it with yogurt. You can make pumpkin butter. Look for recipes that use pumpkin puree and substitute with DRAINED fresh pumpkin;. Note that the carving pumpkins aren't as flavorful and being so watery don't work well in recipes calling for pumpkin chunks IMO.
re: happybellynh
Hayypybelly -- would you mind sharing a pumpkin curry recipe that you like? I have three little sugar pumpkins awaiting some magic in the kitchen, and that sounds delicious.
For pumpkins --- I love to make pumpkin risotto, served in the pumpkins, on a table with softly glowing candles, served with a great fall salad (toasted nuts, grapefruits, pea sprouts, unusual greens) and homemade bread. Mmmm! Sometimes I make creamy pumpkin soup served in the pumpkins too.
It is great in a pasta bake, or for something sweeter, I like pumpkin muffins and pumpkin bread. What great ways to celebrate the flavors of fall!
Pumpkins really are just another winter squash. Unfortunately, the ones sold for Jack-o-lanterns are bred for looks, not flavor. (The squash that's grown for canned pumpkin doesn't even look like a Jack-o-lantern, but the flavor is great.) Jack-o-lantern pumpkins tend to be watery, stringy, and anemic in flavor. The best you could do would be to cut it into chunks and roast it, which will drive off some of the excess water, but you may still need to drain it after pureeing it. You could use it in pureed squash recipes (pumpkin bread, squash soup), but be aware you probably won't be getting a strong pumpkin flavor from it.
Honestly, you'd be better off keeping it around as a Thanksgiving decoration and buying a good squash or sugar pie pumpkin instead. Sugar pie pumpkins, btw, are a different species than Jack-o-lantern pumpkins, so they're very different even though they look similar.
re: Karen_Schaffer
Yes, I knew that there were other species that were more common in cooking. Hmmm...I'm wondering if it would be worth the trouble, to roast, puree and drain, or if we should just roast the seeds and put the rest in the compost heap.....
re: rweater
I almost suggested the compost heap, but didn't know if you were a gardener! They do make great compost.
How about roasting it while you're doing something else in the kitchen, then tasting it and deciding if it's worth any more work? Even microwaving a piece will give you an idea of whether it has enough flavor to bother with.
Keep it in a cool area, and use it as a planter for a Thanksgiving decoration. If you are in Canada and already had your Thanksgiving, then maybe as a nice Sunday dinner decoration. I read the directions somewhere online, and didn't save them, silly me, but they did say to clean the pumpkin very well, and lightly "grease" all cut surfaces with petroleum jelly. Then you can place a small bowl or vase inside the pumpkin, with flowers, and/or decorative looking harvested weeds. VOILA! A conversation piece! I also saw, somewhere, about decorating a pumpkin with coloured markers, but personally, I've not had good luck with that.
I made a tasty pasta sauce recently with fresh pumpkin (butternut squash would be great too) and sage. Here it is:
- cut pumpkin or butternut squash into small cubes (1/2 inch by 1/2 inch). need about 2 cups of cubed pumpkin. boil for about 15 minutes or until fork-tender. reserve about 2 cups of cooking water.
- in a deep pot or wok, melt a couple of tablespoons each of butter and olive oil. add a bunch of lightly chopped garlic cloves (I used about 10). After garlic begins to become fragrant and translucent, add about 20 sage leaves (whole). add a teaspoon of crushed red pepper, and a little s+p to taste. cook for 5 more minutes over medium-low heat
- add cooked pumpkin to butter/garlic/sage mixture. season with 1 tsp of cinnamon, 1 tsp of nutmeg and 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne (or to your taste). sautee for 5 minutes, tossing to evenly coat pumpkin with butter mixture.
- add reserved pumpkin water, cover and simmer until pumpkin begins to break up about 10 minutes. use wooden spoon to crush pumpkin if necessary. more water might be needed if mixture begins to stick to pan.
- add 1/2 cup of cream or half and half. season to taste with salt and pepper. toss with pasta.
re: sidnek
that sounds great, as I also have a butternut squash at home that needs eating.
re: rweater
We just made the delicious butternut soup that has been around for a while. It should work for pumpkin or any winter squash: Cut into ~2 inch squares, roast for an hour, peel, process, etc.
re: nofunlatte
I assume you mean Long Island Cheese? I haven't tried it myself, but what I've read is that while it isn't as sweet as some, it has good flavor. So it should work.
Here is a great Thai pumpkin curry recipe:
Thai Red Curry Beef and Pumpkin
(8 servings)
4 Tbsp. oil
1/4 cup red curry paste
4 cups coconut milk (about 2 cans)
3 Tbsp. Thai fish sauce
2 Tbsp. brown sugar
1 tsp. salt
3 cups peeled pumpkin, diced in 1-inch cubes
1 1/2 pounds of sirloin steak, cut in thin strips
1 large red bell pepper, cut in very thin strips
1/2 cup holy basil leaves
Heat a wok or heavy frying pan until very hot. Add 2 tablespoons of
the oil and fry the curry paste briefly. Add the coconut milk a little
at a time, stirring rapidly to blend with the red curry paste. Add the
fish sauce, brown sugar, and salt. Simmer for 2 minutes. Add the
pumpkin and continue simmering for about 15 minutes.
When the pumpkin is nearly tender, heat another skillet until very
hot. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and stir-fry the beef and
red pepper strips. Add to the pumpkin mixture and continue simmering
until the pumpkin is tender. Serve garnished with basil leaves.
I don't know which kind I bought but it was fairly big. I separated the seeds for roasting (my favorite snack) and used part of the raw pumpkin meat and the pumpkin stringy stuff (that was the womb for the seeds) and I put both into an eight ounce mug for my smoothie. I added one raw egg, 1 tsp nutmeg, 1 tsp cinnamon, 3 tbsp vanilla protein shake powder, 1/2 cup apple cider, 4 ice cubes, 1 tbsn peanut butter. It made a fantastic smoothie!

Little Village forum to keep kids out of gangs should expand
ALEJANDRO ESCALONA firstname.lastname@example.com April 27, 2011 9:18PM
Updated: May 29, 2011 12:24AM
Maria Valades brought her three kids to the Youth Forum last Saturday at Joseph Gary Elementary School in hopes that they could learn how to avoid the street violence that plagues their Little Village neighborhood.
"We frequently hear that a 15- or 16 -year-old kid was killed," Valades said. "We don't want that for our kids."
Valades was talking about the recent murders of teenagers Arturo Santana and Omar Mendez, who were killed in Little Village within a 24-hour period less than a mile apart.
On April 13, Santana was stabbed near his home in the 2600 block of South Ridgeway. Mendez was chased down and shot dead in broad daylight in the 4200 block of West 28th Street. Police think the cases are unrelated but that gangs were involved.
On a table, near where the Valades family was standing, there was a pile of Chicago Police Department fliers in Spanish asking the community for help in solving Santana's murder.
The Fourth Annual Little Village Youth Forum slogan was "prevent violence, promote peace."
It featured performances and workshops on topics ranging from domestic violence to safe dating. Nearly 1,000 kids and more than 20 community organizations were there.
According to Henry Cervantes-Torres and Ernesto Morales, the founders and organizers of the youth forum, the event has grown every year, attracting kids from all over the city and suburbs.
"Kids now lack the skills to resolve conflicts and avoid violence," Cervantes said. "There is a need to provide more resources to explore issues of violence in our community."
Cervantes-Torres thinks a minority of kids in the Little Village neighborhood belongs to gangs. He pointed out many people and organizations that are reaching out to kids to keep them out of gangs.
The fact remains that most murders in Chicago are drug and gang-related.
Gang violence will be one of the toughest challenges Mayor-elect Rahm Emanuel will face, particularly because federal and local police agencies point to the increasing involvement of gangs in the drug trade.
The solution is not only to assign more police to the most violent areas in the city. There also has to be more emphasis on a comprehensive approach that includes police, neighborhood organizations, schools, parents, business and programs such as the Little Village Youth Forum.
It was inspiring to see hundreds of Latino, black and white kids participating in workshops and listening to speakers trying to figure out how to prevent violence in their communities. I would like to have seen more parents, but I understand most teenagers don't want to be seen with their mom or dad in tow.
It would be great if the Little Village Youth Forum could expand its reach to more kids with activities throughout the year. I would suggest that the new Chicago Public Schools authorities take a look at this initiative and support it.
Teachers and principals should welcome the idea of holding the Little Village Youth Forum at their schools. After all, this is about student involvement in an issue that affects their lives and an opportunity to make a difference in their community.
The principal of Gary Elementary School, Alberto Juarez, was present at the event and supports the idea of expanding the Little Village Youth Forum.
"This is a positive way to empower our children to become future leaders," Juarez said.
It was encouraging to see all these kids positively engaged in tackling a problem that has no easy answer and affects their lives in such a direct way.
We should all expect that Maria Valades' three kids — and many others like them — will go on safely to college without fear of ending up on a police flier.

Upping the ante for his upcoming album, Before I Self Destruct, 50 Cent has decided to return to his roots by working closely with Eminem and Dr. Dre and shoot a 90-minute feature film to include in the packaging.
While still carrying the loss from last year's record sales battle against rapper Kanye West, Fif has decided to re-enlist the help of the same people that made him famous in the first place.
Included in the packaging, 50 will also treat fans with a movie, sharing the album's title. Fif, who wrote and directed the flick, will also stars as the main character, portraying the role of an inner city child raised by a single mother. With his dream of becoming a professional basketball player quickly fading after his mother is killed, 50's character resorts to a life of crime to achieve vengeance and support his younger brother.
"My film captures the harsh realities that reflect so many communities today," 50 said in a statement. "There will be some who will greatly identify with the characters and the situations presented and then there will be others who may be shocked that the struggles that go on in the inner city. I made the film for both groups."
As previously reported by SOHH, the G-Unit leader's new film aims to give viewers a more direct and understanding look at urban lifestyles.
"When [movies] portray certain lifestyles they don't show cause and effect," he told Rolling Stone. "But I showed characters under pressure in scenarios where they felt like there were no other options, even though there were. There are always options. People just usually start to see them while being incarcerated — for not seeing them in the first place."
He also revealed his intent of recruiting a roster of unsigned artists and creating a separate score for the film to insure his label, Interscope, would not be involved.
"[If not,] then Interscope would automatically have the rights to it, when they had absolutely no ownership of the actual material," he added. "I kept the music up to standards. I worked with it until it was right."
Before I Self Destruct is slated for release on December 9.
It's not too late to nominate your favorite artists, bloggers or even yourself for an Online Hip-Hop Award. State your bid here.

In his book Lawn Boy, Gary Paulsen has done a wonderful job of capturing an everyday job for a tween boy--like mowing the lawn--and expanding it into a hilarious summer experience.
Lawn Boy is a great book for boys, but I think girls will enjoy it, too. Paulsen elaborates on experiences most all teens can relate to--like not having any money and being bored during summer vacation. They're too young to drive but not that interested in toys, unless you consider video games toys. And if they want to get new video games to play, they have to come up with the funds to buy them.

Management Company Quick Synopsis:
Small niche company specializing in upscale Cancun beachfront vacation rentals. When you call with questions, you can expect the phone to be answered by me, Tim Miller, if you call between 9am-5pm central time, Monday through Saturday.
Contact Person Quick Synopsis: Hi, I'm Tim Miller. I own & operate a small niche management company specializing in nice vacation rentals on the beach in Cancun Mexico. I would say my knowledge base of Cancun & the hotel zone is very solid. I own vacation rental property in Cancun (this unit), I have worked in Cancun, and I take a strong personal interest in each & every unit I manage in Cancun. Almost every picture you see of any one of the rentals or at any one of the resorts was taken by myself personally. I believe that I offer some services & items that currently keep us a head of our competition. These things may appear small on the surface, but I would offer for your consideration the thought that excellence can often be found in the details. For example, if you are traveling with small children, you will find a packnplay (play-pen & sleeper), a high chair & a quality stroller on hand. Or, if you would like to enjoy your favorite drinks down by the pool or beach we welcome you to use the special cooler you will find in any of our units. It is on wheels, super easy to take with you and is also very handy as a pool or beachside table. The convenience might only be outshined by the savings on drinks! This item has been pre-approved for use by the resort, when you are staying at one of our vacation rentals.
Lastly, it's important to know you are in good hands once you arrive to Cancun. Being a small company, I work with a small, tight knit group of terrific people in Cancun that are there for you, our guests. I can arrange for a trip to the Super Walmart grocery store early on in your stay if you like, which saves you money. (there are no grocery stores in the hotel zone-only convenience stores). The cost for this service is $40 & is paid directly to whomever takes you shopping. Everyone in our group in Cancun speaks terrific English and are among the nicest people I have ever known. If you have a need for babysitting services? If so, we can help. Would you like some real Mexican culture? I can arrange to send a professional chef to cook & clean up for you, & at very reasonable prices. Or, maybe you would like to go snorkeling or fishing. One of our managers in Cancun is a dear friend of mine. His family comes from many generations of fisherman. Now, he offers both snorkeling and fishing services. The tours are private. His boat holds up to 14, and is shaded. He can take you to special areas that the tour operators don't go. I have been out on Mike's boat several times & I highly recommend this experience. If you have 6 or more, the cost is $55 per person cash. The tour is about 5 or 6 hours and it includes lunch on a small island he takes you to.
Most commonly questions: Should we rent a car? You don't need to. Cabs and busses run 24/7 & are quick & easy access from the resort. If you prefer a rental car, parking is available. Please see our site for a link to the lowest Cancun rental car rates we have been able to find.
How do we get to the resort? Please visit our website for the most reasonable transfer company we have found in Cancun and specific pricing depending on how many people.
Are there any special rates available on this property and is it available for my dates? We frequently have special rates available that may apply to your dates. Please call or email for any specials we may have on this property or one of our other properties. Please don't forget to include the dates%2
Please email us for our main site where there are several links to area activities and much more.
