Lemond Curd Storage and Uses
I had a surplus of lemons so I made a double batch of curd. I made a version of lemon bars (used some ideas from a bunch of different recipes) and now have two half pint (8 oz) jars left. I didn't water bath can them because of the butter and eggs. I searched around the message boards and saw several folks have said it freezes very well. So here are my questions:
1) how long can I keep it in the freezer (please say if this length is based on your personal experience or someone else's published recommendation).
2) Do you think one 8 oz jar is enough to cover a 9x9 glass baking dish of shortbread? When I made my lemon bars I just used what I needed from the pot and did not measure and so I am not sure how much I used.
3) What other uses do you have for lemon curd? Can I use it as the filling for lemon meringue? I've never had lemon meringue pie so I don't really know what its supposed to taste like. I know about using it for tarts and the filling in between cake layers....any other suggestions or recipes that would fit an 8 oz jar?
4) I still have 6 lemons left....just sayin'
Lemon curd is great and flexible...I make it all the time and I do freeze it sometimes.
1) I would not freeze longer than 1-2 months...it develops a 'tired' flavour
2) I think that should be enough for a 9x9 baking dish, as long as you are not really picky...is it a show-piece dessert or just family?
3) I use lemon curd as a cake filling for coconut cakes and for the thumbprint part of cookies on a plate as a contrast with raspberry preserves...but best of all are those tiny lemon curd tarts...no, I would not try and use curd in a lemon-meringe pie, the viscosity is off a bit, too sturdy somehow if you know what I mean, and possibly too tart for most traditional lemon meringe-pie eater's taste
Not traditional, but I use it as a spread, akin to jam. Great breakfast: warm croissant with a goodly layer of lemon curd.
Freezing is my only storage for curds because they hold up so well with soooo much less hassle and i love them :) I just used one that was 2 years old (I "found" it in a bin...oops!) and thought... .."what the heck?". It was just fine! A little ice crystal formed on the top, I scraped it off and used the rest in a tart. I don't recommend keeping frozen dairy this long in general but there was really no way to tell it wasn't fresh in this application. I am sure if you did a side by side with fresh, you could tell the difference.
I use them mostly traditionally (as you have listed) for eating with scones and fillings for puff pastry items on the fly. I pack mine in small jelly jars so they are used up quickly once thawed.
re: sedimental
I, too, just opened a partial jar of lemon curd that had been in the freezer for nearly two years and although edible, the texture was almost rubbery, even after a quick zap in the micro. Mine also had ice crystals in it. Since making my last batch I've acquired a FoodSaver and with the two batches I made this past weekend, I'm going to vacuum seal the jars before freezing in the hope that extends the quality of the curd.
As for uses, I love having it on hand for last-minute desserts, especially for gluten-free guests. I mix it with whipped cream and stir it into either fresh or macerated fruit--either with or without a bit of alcohol.
i make scottish-style curd, which uses honey rather than sugar. it lasts for months in the fridge.
your jar should be enough for the shortbread coverage. you can also use it in place of jam for linzer-type or thumbprint cookies.
it can be mixed with cream cheese for cheesecake too.
re: ipsedixit
Mine too
re: CanadaGirl
Not if it's been in my mouth first. :-)
re: ipsedixit
Oh, but if I'm in the room you may not be getting a spoon anywhere near that lemon curd ;-)
re: cheesecake17
I use it as a dip for chunks of 1-2-3-4 cake.
re: cheesecake17
Chocolate and lemon...hmmm...they'd fight each other in my mouth. No, those would have to be separate. I tend not to like chocolate mixed with anything except mint or raspberry. When it's mixed with caramel, I can't taste either one; I just taste sweetness. And when chocolate is mixed with orange, it smells like I'm eating Glade.
re: cheesecake17
I'm with your DH. I love chocolate with lemon...and lime, and pink grapefruit. But I'm actually not crazy about the more traditional/common pairing with orange.
re: goodhealthgourmet
me too. My favorite birthday cake ever was a chocolate cale filled with lemon curd( three layers) and topped with ganache, candied lemon peel on top.
re: ButterYum
OMG, that sounds terrific.
re: ButterYum
That's my recipe for lemon ice cream--mix the curd with some cream, chill, and churn away!
You can safely water bath can it....here's how:
re: momskitchen
I got excited there for a minute, but instructions say specifically that only bottled juice should be used "to standardize acidity." Bummer that it's not recommended for fresh juice since I'm not going to go to the trouble of making lemon curd with bottled juice.
re: JoanN
Here's a good article on about the pH of lemons from a well respected source - Linda Ziedrich. I'd use real lemon juice and her lemon curd recipe in Joy of Jams and not worry about it one bit. http://agardenerstable.com/2011/04/19...
re: momskitchen
Interesting article, and thanks for posting it. But I make my curd from Meyer lemons and as she points out, you should be safe using regular lemons, not Meyers. Anyway, I now have two batches of Meyer lemon curd in my freezer so I'm set for a while.
re: sunshine842
I've tried a number of different recipes for curd and this is the one I prefer: http://www.cookstr.com/recipes/meyer-...
But I've only made it with Meyer lemons.
re: Caitlin McGrath
I'd say about a scant two cups.
re: goodhealthgourmet
Lemon curd on cheesecake would be excellent! I put lemon curd on pancakes and toast.
re: JerryMe
Ooh, yes on the pancakes.
I have made this recipe many, many times and it always turns out great! Lemon curd whipped into cream, what could be more decadent!
re: Susan627
I make a fancy dessert in crystal dessert dishes:
Assorted berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, blackberries)
Aged balsamic vinegar
Lemon Curd
Fresh whipped cream
Add 1 T balsamic vinegar per pint of berries and mis. Layer berries and lemon curd in dessert glasses. Top with whipped cream.
Optional - serve shortbread cookies, florentine cookies, etc. on the side
My easiest recipe: Combine equal parts whipped cream and lemon curd. Spoon into prepared cups of chocolate (home made or bought).
Top with raspberries or put some raspberries in the bottom of the chocolate cup before filling with lemon curd mixture. Add more raspberries on the plate.
Here's link to making your own chocolate cups:

25 years of St. Croix Triathlon
Written by: Devashish Paul, www.slowtwitch.com
Date: Tue Apr 23 2013
Many of today's triathletes were not even born or perhaps they were in elementary school when the first edition of the St. Croix Triathlon was held back in 1988 and triathlon has grown substantially since then. St. Croix was first held before Mark Allen or Paula Newby Fraser had even won the first of their record setting Ironman Hawaii wins. Mike Pigg, was the man taming the Beast in many early editions and Jimmy Riccitello, the man who is today head referee at the WTC, was the guy winning St. Croix. In fact, some of the strengths that allowed Riccitello to dominate in St. Croix are the very reasons why he stepped up as head referee at WTC. The St. Croix bike course favors very strong bikers who can escape their rivals because of the constant hills, wind and heat - something that is not always there are other races.
But the event is not just a race for strong bikers, even though its marquee feature the Beast gets all the airtime. St. Croix has its unique character. Every aspect of the race is a challenge. The swim is not taking place in flat water - it is in the sea in open water with major swells and no wetsuit. The bike features a constant sequence of hills and technical terrain that keeps coming at you and includes the Beast we already mentioned. Finally, the St. Croix run is not to be underestimated, held in the heat of the day that can be like a tropical sauna and with constant hills and some cross country running in the Buccaneer resort.
On the first weekend of May that features the famed Wildflower triathlon and the new Ironman 70.3 US Pro Championships in St. George, St. Croix holds its own as a marquee event amongst triathlon's classics. We talked with long time race director Tom Guthrie so he could share some insight into the 25th edition that takes place on May 6th 2013.Read full article

The combination of flavors here plays up the nutty flavor of whole-grain penne. Prep and Cook Time: 1 hour, 20 minutes. Notes: Ricotta salata (also called "hard ricotta") is a firm white Italian cheese made by salting, pressing, and drying sheep's-milk ricotta. In flavor, it's like a very mild, nutty, less tangy feta, which makes it a natural addition to pastas and salads (it can also be grated). Look for ricotta salata in specialty stores, Italian markets, or any supermarket with a good cheese department.
Sunset FEBRUARY 2007
1. In a large frying pan over high heat, cook onions in 3 tbsp. olive oil with sugar and 2 tsp. salt, stirring and turning often, until onions begin to release their juices and turn golden, 10 to 13 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions turn a caramel color and become quite sweet, 35 to 40 minutes more. If onions begin to stick to the pan or char during cooking, reduce heat.
2. Meanwhile, in a small frying pan (not nonstick) over medium-low heat, toast walnuts, stirring frequently, until fragrant and golden, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and cool slightly. Pour walnuts into a zip-lock plastic bag and lightly crush with a rolling pin. Set aside.
3. When onions are nearly done, cook pasta in boiling salted water until tender to the bite, 9 to 12 minutes or according to package instructions. Drain pasta, reserving about 1/2 cup cooking water.
4. Toss caramelized onions with pasta, walnuts, ricotta salata, parsley, reserved cooking water, lemon juice, pepper, and remaining 2 tbsp. olive oil. Season to taste with salt. Serve hot.
Note: Nutritional analysis is per serving.

But dreams can have a cruel price. For Susannah, daughter of a bigwig in a competing company, success means losing her family. The trade-off is unimagined courage and a passion that will enrich her dramatically. Is it worth it?
©1991 Susan Elizabeth Phillips; (P)1996 Books on Tape
"Fun and lively." (Publishers Weekly)
This was fun to listen to and brought me back to my early computer days. It may be most appealing to romance loving computer nerds such as myself. The comparison to Apple were obvious, but fun for reminiscing over those early days of the personal computer.
"Not worth the 2 credits"
I have listen to all but Glitter Baby - I held out on this one because it was 2 credits, personally this was not worth the credits - it was not one SEP better books. I did not find the story to be interesting and the characters mundane ??? I am a big fan of Anna Fields but even did not enjoy her reading this book. I wish I could get at least 1 credit back
"Not One of Her Bests"
Not one of SEPs best, but was still a good listen. I did find myself drifting off in the middle a little bit, but would still recommend this read - after you've listened to all the others!
"Great love story, great sense of humor...."
one of my favorites
the humerous bantering between the the two lovers
she is a great narrator for Suzanne E Phillips, always portrays her wit, and edgy remarks
had to read/listen to the enitre book in one sitting....
R. Sexton
"Not your average SEP But Still Very Good"
Yes, the book had a interesting plot and a complicated romance. I really liked the descriptions of all of the technical aspects and I felt like I had a better understanding of the early computer industry after listening to this book.
Anna Fields was amazing as usual, I recommend all of the books Anna Fields has narrated.
Towards the end there was a lot of drama and it kept me riveted. I love when a book can accomplish that.
This is not SEP's usual book but it is one of her earlier ones and in my opinion one of her better ones. It doesn't follow the same format as some of her newer books and although I like those books too, this one has more substance.
"Susan Elizabeth Phillips dose it again!"
This is one of the top 5
Susannah Faulconer over comes a number of issues and grows as a person. It was frustrating at times to watch her be defenseless against her father, her fiance and then Sam, then find her voice and her back bone!
It took a little bit of getting used to that somewhat lock jaw tone in Anna voice but she did a great job of distinguishing each character.
This would be hard to decide, the book covered the computer revolution, not just the revolution of its main characters.
Susan Elizabeth Phillips never disappoints! Her books are always fabulous! check out her match maker series. I love that her characters flow through so many books!
"I loved this book. Read it years ago."
The story. My profession was computers and I love Susan Elizabeth Phillips.
The ending.
I have loved every book she narrated. I felt like I lost a friend when she died.
I have a very fast paced life. Audio books are an awesome alternative for me. Long road trips, working out and housework arn't a bore.
"Loved the story. Love the author, again and again"
Go ahead, spend the credit. If you love SEP you will love this as well. As usual. I use her comedic comments in my social life. She is clever, therefore I get a double whamy!
"oldie but goodie"
I am a big SEP fan... but for some reason had never read Hot Shot! really enjoyed it!

Cook Time:

From Vegetarian Journal: "a tasty side dish with a thick, stew-like consistency, this flavorful vegetable medley features the famous three sister -- squash, corn, and beans. Many home cooks prepare this cherished stew, and each has a different take on the balance of seasonings that make it taste just right." I listed the recipe as it was printed, but I did make a few minor changes. I nixed the olive oil in favor of a combination of cooking spray and water; I used sweet paprika, since the recipe didn't specify; and I used frozen corn (no need to bother defrosting it). Kabocha can be difficult to find sometimes, but try not to substitute with another winter squash if you can help it -- there really is no comparison for kabocha's wonderful texture and flavor.

November 27, 2014
A 60-year-old man has been given 30 to 40 years in prison after making a plea deal in a child sex assault and porn case.
David Nielsen was sentenced on Wednesday.
Nielsen originally was charged with sexual assault of a child and four counts of possessing child pornography. He pleaded no contest to attempted sexual assault of a child after prosecutors dropped the porn charges.
Scotts Bluff County court records say someone who borrowed Nielsen's phone to send a text found nude photos of a teenage girl on the phone.
Nielsen later told an investigator that he'd taken pictures of the girl and that he'd had sex with her since she was 13 or 14. She's 16 now.

A primary school is upgrading a suite full of old boxes (550MHz, 64MB, CDs) and was wondering whether they might still be useful for something. Haven't looked inside or tried it, but I've been wondering whether:

b) They would run something low maintenance e.g. a LiveCD (or HD installed) WWW kiosk.

Magic, above all, is what defines the fantasy genre. From witches and sorcerers to fractures in time, the fantastical themes of fantasy stem from the unknown, the unknowable, and the mysterious. Mix magic well with a classic story of good and evil, the innocence of childhood, or a talking flock of birds, and you'll find a perfect fantasy story in your hands.
Still, the realm of fantasy covers many more bases than those - practically anything your mind can conjure fits into fantasy, and the weirder it is, the better. What follow are the ten elements most common to popular, successful fantasy fiction.
The Medieval
Fantasy literature is stereotypically filled with medieval characters and themes: knights on horseback, royal families (members of which may or may not be in need of rescue), dungeons, middle-age dress, and castles. The weapons, when non-magical, are usually archaic: swords, longbows and slingshots.
Motifs like these are so common because the most popular, classic fantasy stories of the English-speaking western world not only take place, but were written, hundreds of years ago. Robin Hood and King Arthur's tales are practically ancient classics that are undoubtedly still making contributions to the collective unconscious. Shakespeare helped too, with his three witches of 'Macbeth' and the creatures of 'A Midsummer Night's Dream.'
Religious Overtones
Partially due to fantasy's relationship with times of old, religions, especially Catholicism and old Christian themes, play a strong role in shaping fantasy stories. In their day, kings were backed by the public acknowledgment that they were chosen by God; knights, given their positions by kings, were doing God's work. Sometimes, angels would even step in to give advice. In such a context, all heroes of a story were aligned with God.
Likewise, villains are often considered to be aligned with Satan. The assumed evil nature of witches (and the power of the pentagram) can be credited to the old church's vilification of those who opposed it. Demons of all sorts stem conceptually from hell and the devil. Satan doesn't have to be named specifically in a fantasy story for its demons to owe their popularity as villains to him.
The Good-Evil Divide
God and Satan are the ultimate components of the fight between good and evil. Fantasy often uses the notion that pure goodness and pure evil are always easy to differentiate between, and that there's no good reason not to root for the obvious good guys.
While much of current fantasy has left religious names in the dust, the themes carry on. A very common trait of fantasy is to make an epic good-evil fight accessible to the moral inclinations of every single reader.
A fantasy story without at least a subtle form of magic is hard to find. It's practically a requirement in the fantasy genre.
Magic can come in many forms, from the mysterious powers of gods and goddesses, to the earth-moving forces of a sorcerer's might, to the sprite with the ability to change the colors of the leaves in the fall. Some magic happens unguided by any characters, and some is directly produced by them.
Magic can do any number of things. It can build and disassemble, create and destroy; it harnesses the elements of wind, water, fire, and electricity to be used as weapons; it can cause shape-shifting, teleportation, levitation, telepathy, corpse reanimation, and precognition. It can even warp time.
While having so many magical options, fantasy stories still remain cohesive - that is, regardless of what is true in the real world, every well-crafted fantasy world has 'natural,' logical rules which shape and are obeyed by its magical elements. This is what keeps a magical fantasy story easy to follow.
Real and Mythical Creatures
A great deal of fantasy, especially that written for children, has talking animals; some even concerns talking animals exclusively. Cats, dogs, elephants, and squirrels are often personified in stories, especially allegorical ones. Their character traits often correspond to the human personalities the animals commonly remind us of.
The fun doesn't stop there. Mythical animals of all sorts pop up in fantasy literature, from the popular unicorn, troll and fire-breathing dragon to the less popular grindylow and mope. More often than not, the unreal creatures in fantasy stories aren't created by the author, but pulled from numerous historical sources of mythology, often with slight changes to differentiate them from common conceptions.
The Quest
Fantasy literature is required to have one or more protagonists, or heroes. The heroes are usually called (by a dream, a king's demand, or a message) to complete a quest that involves travel - protect a ring, defeat an evil overlord in a distant land, rescue a princess - and the plot follows the protagonists as they complete it.
This physical, or external, quest is often accompanied by a quest of another sort: a journey into the internal world. Heroes can start out as anti-heroes, good people who have made big mistakes, and a quest for repentance, strength and knowledge is just what the hero needs to redeem herself. Often, this quest is successfully finished just before, or just as, the hero completes the external quest.
For example, the princess can only be saved if the hero learns to love, or the evil ruler will only be brought to justice once the hero achieves a level of courageous enlightenment. A true hero doesn't just conquer the evils of the external world, but the evils of the internal world as well.
As more and more members of humanity moved from the country to the city, so did the fantasy story, beginning in the nineteen-twenties and flowering into popularity much later on. Modern urban fantasy has deforested the haunted marsh and moved the ghosts to the sewers and the bedroom closet. In the nineteen eighties, urban fantasy became a full-fledged sub-genre with John Crowley, Matt Ruff, and Emma Bull at the helm of the movement.
Urban fantasy didn't only rear its head in literature, but on the big screen: 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' and 'The Crow' exemplify the sub-genre well.
Morbid Macabre
While usually reserved for horror stories, spooky, gory, and dark themes have wormed their way into fantasy in an influential way. The themes of dark fantasy are that of Gothic horror, integrated with swords and magic. Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles are the most familiar residents of this genre. Edgar Allan Poe, too, wrote his share of dark fantasy.
Relevant Commentary
Although fantasy doesn't do this as often as science fiction does, it can be employed to make socio-political commentary. Famous leaders, or their personality types, can be parodied in fantasy stories in ways that integrate well into their plots. So can historical political movements and uprisings. Terry Pratchett does this successfully, with great humor, in his lengthy and popular Discworld series.
The Role of Children
Children are huge consumers of fantasy, and much of modern fantasy employs children as heroes. The trend is exemplified in fairy tales, Disney films, and popular stories. In children's fantasy, anything goes: plants eat dirty socks, cats become private investigators, and boys become wizards. That isn't to say that all the fantasy marketed to children is for children alone: adults can have just as much fun reading aloud at bedtime as their kids do.

Coca-Cola today kicks off its teen-centric global Coca-Cola Music campaign, expanding the "Walls" commercial (above), which debuted in Germany in January, worldwide. The track, "Can you feel it" by British band One Night Only, contains Coke's sonic signature, similar to how K'naan's World Cup "Waving Flag" subtly incorporated the brand's audio mark.
More details on the campaign (which includes a Maroon 5 tie-in on March 22nd) our earlier story, and in Coke's press release. Scroll down for a behind-the-scenes look at the commercial.
Here's the band's "making of" the commercial:

Dealing with Disappointment:
An Age-by-Age Guide to Helping Kids Bounce Back
Children's lives are chock-full of disappointments, large and small. Your toddler's long-lashed eyes are brimming with tears, her hopes of playing at the park dashed by the swirling snowstorm outside.
Crying "Bully"
Over the last few years, there has been a vast metamorphosis in the word "bully." A term that used to explain a relatively rare situation has seemingly been downgraded to describe any type of emotional discomfort a child may experience from his peers.
Make No Mean NO
Children hunger to know that their parents say what they mean and mean what they say. And even though they might protest, it is no truer than when you, as a parent, lay down the law and say no.
TV Alternatives for Tots
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children 2 and older get no more than two hours of screen time a day, while those under 2 watch none. For most parents, this isn't new information. We all know excessive TV time is linked to some unfortunate consequences, such as childhood obesity, language delays and shortened attention spans.
Beneficial Boredom
Having nothing to do can be best
It is the end of summer, and the pool is no longer a novelty. Camps are coming to a close, and school is not in session for a few more weeks. This is when the "I'm so bored" chant begins. While those words and the tone in which they are uttered are like nails on a chalkboard, they also can open the door to encouraging healthy creative skills in your child.

Glass Sex Toys
Glass Vibrators
Straight laced glass dildos are fine and dandy but mix it up with some good vibrations too. Stand out glass vibrators include the glorious gold Doc Johnson Glass Love Vibrator (with raised ridges for maximum internal pleasure), the feminine Icicles Texture Waterproof Glass Vibrator No 19 and California Exotics' hot pink Crystal High Intense Vibrating Bullet for glass on the go.
Glass Straight Shaft Dildos
Glass dildos are the first to jump out. Crafted for exquisite vaginal and anal probing, these bold beauties will allow you to run the gamete of fire and ice. Why does that matter? No matter how good your current sex toy or your lover's hands, mouth and appendage maybe, there's always room for variation in the "Big O" department.
A glass dildo will give you just that with aplomb. Place it in the freezer or fridge to begin with. When your vibrator is suitably chilled trail it over your lover's naked skin to allow them to get used to the temperature. Less messy than an ice pop, your sleek, cold vibrator will awaken their erogenous zones before you move onto the main hot spots, internal and external. Slipping a cool piece of seamless glass between your thighs is an experience to be had. The marriage of sizzle with ice is mind-blowing! Want something sleek and simple to start you off?
Glass G-Spot Dildos
Glass g-spot dildos and vibrators dish out unreal internal stimulation with their curved heads, built to nudge and massage your p-spot or g-spot. Heat one up in warm water and feel it slip straight in. Just for men, the crystal clear Topco CyberGlass Perfect P-spot Plug is a wonder for prostate play and more so when combined with masturbation. Alternatively the Glassvibrations Man Dildo is smooth and comfortable and has a well-rounded head.
Women will have their g-spot titillated with one of the most texture glass dildos of the lot, the Icicles rose Tentacle Glass Dildo No 24, along with the Adam & Eve Cyberglass Pink indulgence Dildo. Want more? Keep the orgasms flowing with Icicles' Violet Blossom Glass Dildo No 17 or just go for the exotic with Glassvibrations' Little Dragon Dildo.
Glass Double Dongs
Sharing sex toys with your lover is great fun and a way to bond. Used responsibly with condoms, glass toys for two can give you a double header of hot and cold. Simply apply ice to one end and a hot water bottle to the other. The Icicles Rose Double Ended Glass Dildo No 23 is built for this, as is the easy to wield Phallix Amber Michael Signature Ray Gun.

text: National Journal: Rand Paul Is 2016 GOP Frontrunner Print article Send a Tip by Robert Wilde 26 Feb 2014 post a comment Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) is the Republican front-runner for President in 2016, according to Scott Jennings, a former George W. Bush deputy political director now running a super PAC in Kentucky. The veteran Republican strategist asserts, "The political instinct of when to do things is not something you teach—you either have it or you don't. He's got a knack for finding populist issues showing why the government is stupid, and people like it." According to Josh Kraushaar at the National Journal, Rand Paul "scares the living daylights out of many Republicans looking for an electable nominee capable of challenging Hillary Clinton." The Journal says that time will tell "whether Paul is the modern version of Barry Goldwater or at the leading edge of a new, more libertarian brand of Republicanism." Senator Paul's long trusted adviser, Jesse Benton, says that breaking through is a big challenge but he is optimistic: "He's a fundamentally better messenger than Barry Goldwater—[Goldwater's 1964 campaign slogan] 'In your heart you know he's right' is not very compelling. Rand is a wonderful communicator, and I think a message of individual liberty can build wide support." Kraushaar asserts that the Senator is "doing more than almost any other Republican to expand the party's appeal to nontraditional GOP voters—the type of activity that's imperative for future success." For example, Paul gave a speech at Howard University and historically black Simmons College in Kentucky (twice) as part of an outreach effort toward African-Americans. Moreover, Kraushaar points out that his program of "economic freedom zones" modeled after Jack Kemp's one time project has captured the ear of the NAACP, which invited him to speak. Significantly, according to Kraushaar, Paul has developed an important alliance with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, which has "helped him build chits with the establishment, including donors skeptical of his national viability."

Paying for college is not easy but will seem less daunting after dispelling some misperceptions about college financing.
First, regardless of family income, fill out the FAFSA ( www.fafsa.ed.gov). This essential form is used by the federal and state governments and your student's school to determine financial aid. The deadline is March 10. Free help is available at community-based sites across Indiana on College Goal Sunday, Feb. 23.
College Board offers additional advice:
Costs: During the last 30 years, the average published tuition and fees at four-year private schools have increased by 153 percent to $30,094 and by 231 percent to $8,893 at four-year public schools. Room and board averages an additional $9,000 to $10,000. However, most families don't pay sticker price for tuition and fees. The actual average price paid by students for tuition and fees (excluding room and board) is $3,120 at four-year public schools (65 percent below sticker) and $12,460 at four-year private schools (59 percent below). After adjusting for inflation, the net cost at private colleges is 8 percent lower than a decade ago.
About two-thirds of full-time students receive financial aid. The average undergraduate receives $13,370: $7,190 in grants, $4,900 in federal loans and $1,280 in tax credits, deductions and work study.
Low-income families: A four-person household with income of $43,568 or less is eligible for Indiana's 21st Century Scholarship and the federal Pell Grant. A student with these grants will pay nothing for tuition and fees at Indiana public schools and an average of just 10 percent of the tuition and fees at four-year private schools.
Middle and upper income families: For families in the top half of household income, financial aid reduces the public school sticker price by 25 percent to 33 percent and the private school sticker price by 40 percent to 50 percent.
Many upper-income families are eligible for the federal education tax credit and deduction. The tax credit is available to households with adjusted gross incomes as high as $180,000. In fact, 21 percent of tax credit dollars went to households with AGIs higher than $100,000, and 57 percent of tax deduction dollars went to households with AGIs between $100,000 and $160,000. The tax credit and deduction on average are worth $1,330.
College loans: According to the Institute for College Access and Success, 71 percent of college graduates compile an average debt of $29,400. Indiana is below the national averages, with 64 percent of graduates holding average debt of $27,886.
According to the Indiana Commission for Higher Education (www.learnmore.org), college loan debt should not exceed expected first-year salary.
Lower your debt further by earning your degree in four years (or less). The average student loan per school year is $4,900. A student who graduates in four years would have student loan debt of $19,600 (33 percent lower than the national average).
Two-year public institutions can be an affordable alternative. Two-year schools can help you save money. You can earn an associate degree in two years and then transfer those credits to a four-year school if you choose. Full-time students in public two-year colleges on average receive enough financial aid to pay for tuition and fees, plus another $1,550 to pay other expenses.
Search for scholarships. A good place to start is www.triptocollege.org
Other families have figured this out, and you can, too. Despite financial challenges, the number of students going to college and graduating is rising. Since 2005, the number of undergraduate students has increased by 1.9 million. Between 2001 and 2011, the number of associate degrees awarded increased by 63 percent, and the number of bachelor's degrees increased by 38 percent.
The payoff is worth the effort. Median family income for families headed by a four-year college graduate is $101,909, more than double the median income for families headed by a high school graduate.

A 48-year-old woman has been held in contempt for refusing to testify against her husband, who's accused of killing their 2-year-old grandson.
Forty-eight-year-old Peter Draper is on trial this week, charged with felony child abuse resulting in death and another count of child abuse.
His wife, Nancy Draper, on Wednesday cited her constitutional right not to incriminate herself, even though she'd been granted immunity for her testimony.
Nancy Draper also is charged with felony child abuse resulting in death. Authorities say she knew her husband was abusing the boy, Joseph Rinehart, but did nothing to stop it.
The trial is continuing Friday.

As peer-to-peer file sharing systems grow in popularity, they are also becoming an increasingly dangerous means of transmitting confidential information. That's according to a recent study by Dartmouth business school researchers.
P2P use has more than doubled in the past three years, from less than four million in 2003 to nearly 10 million in 2006. And it's evolving in ways that make it more difficult to keep out of corporate and residential firewalls.
One problem is that many of the programs have interface designs that are confusing or intentionally deceptive, causing users to share more information through the P2P interface than intended. In addition, client software could contain bugs that result in unintentional sharing of file directories.
"It is surprising how much data is out there, accessible on P2P networks and how damaging some of it is. It's jaw dropping," says Scott Dynes, one of the study's co-authors and a senior research fellow at Dartmouth's Institute for Security Technology Studies.
The new P2P warnings from Dartmouth arrived at about the same time as the announcement of a major P2P-related corporate data breach. A Pfizer worker has been blamed for leaking personal financial information on more than 17,000 current and former Pfizer employees. The information breach came after the employee installed unauthorized file-sharing software on a company laptop. The sensitive files were then accessed by one or more third parties.
Efforts by Internet service providers (ISPs), organizations, and copyright holders to limit P2P both technically and legally have prompted P2P developers to create decentralized, encrypted, and anonymous networks, according to the study. The networks are difficult to track, designed to accommodate large numbers of clients, and capable of transferring vast amounts of data.
The study shows how P2P networks could yield a bounty of sensitive business data, including personal information on customers and employees. The researchers focused on finding information from the top 30 U.S. banks. With the assistance of a P2P monitoring tool from a company called Tiversa, the researchers found about 12,700 documents that might relate to the banks.
Through a largely manual analysis, the researchers found 1,708 documents containing sensitive bank information. Most of the documents appeared to be exposed via home machines that were used for both business and personal computing, according to the study. Such devices typically are not subject to the P2P controls exerted by corporate IT departments, it stated.
In addition to blocking workplace P2P use, companies should also develop clear policies on laptop use and on using business files on home machines, according to the study. Companies also may want to rework their file naming conventions to make it less likely that outsiders will stumble on their sensitive files.
