Michael Jackson Rumor Mill: Tabloid Claims Mother of Blanket is Mexican Nurse Named Helenaby Free Britney at . Comments
A new name has surfaced in the Michael Jackson paternity saga, a saga so incredibly weird that it's getting difficult to keep the names straight.
At least this alleged baby mama has only one name (that we know of).
A Mexican nurse named Helena was hand-picked by the late King of Pop to act as surrogate mother to the late star's son Blanket, the Daily Mirror reports.
Blanket (real name Prince Michael Jackson II) was conceived via IVF using the King of Pop's sperm, according to the report, and born on February 21, 2002.
On Blanket's birth certificate, Michael is listed as the father, while the mother's name is blank. He was born at Sharp Grossmont Hospital in La Mesa, Calif.
The singer's third son was born to Helena, a friend told the Mirror, because the mother of his first two children, Debbie Rowe, had health problems that interfered with any more pregnancies, sending Jackson on a hunt for a new surrogate.
Michael Jackson reportedly paid Helena just $20,000 (?!) for her services, but supplied her with an expense account and a staff of servants at one point.
"He chose Helena because she had a Latino background but she was also a U.S. citizen and had quite fair skin," a friend of Jackson's told the Mirror.
"He liked her because she was attractive and seemed stable and intelligent. She was a nurse or medical assistant, which he also liked. She was around 5 feet, 4 inches, slim, aged around 30 and had long, dark, straight hair."
"He said she was strait-laced, almost a girl next door type. There were no dramas with her. She knew what she had to do and got on with it."
A pair of loons who should probably be receiving mental health care, Claire Elisabeth Fields Cruise and Billie Jean Jackson, also claim to be Blanket's mom.
Other rumors have suggested that Pia Bhatti, the mother of Michael's "secret son" Omer Bhatti, was chosen by MJ to carry Blanket. He has many moms.
Elsewhere, Michael is rumored not to have fathered his first two children.
His friends Mark Lester and Arnold Klein - both of whom donated sperm to the singer - have been the subject of paternity rumors regarding Michael Jr. and Paris Jackson.
helena isn't his mom. only was her uterus used not her egg. i am his mom, believe it or not.
oh my god i thought i was looking at a 10 year old Michael Jackson with straight hair
they"re so young to be involved to those nonsense issues!!!!!!!!!!!;C
..better leave the kids alone!!!!!!!!!!!;C
The media has always called MJ wacko, BUT THE ONLY WACKO ARE THE REPORTERS THAT HAVE NOT ONLY DISTROYED MJ LIFE, BUT ARE OUT TO DISTROY HIS CHILDRENS LIFE TOO.. How low can the MEDIA be, this is what I call CHILD ABUSE. THESE CHILDREN ARE MJ NO MATTER WHO'S SPERM WAS DONATED, THE ONLY ONE THAT WILL KNOW IS THE CHILDREN if they dicide too. But these children are not white they have got a dark side and that OLIVE look stands out.. YOUR DADDY WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU CHILDREN AND WILL ALWAYS BE IN YOUR HEART.. RIP MICHAEL YOU WERE THE BEST AND ALWAYS WILL BE,
and to all those claming paternity, face it! under the american law having donors have absolutely no right over the children. And to the media, you always say the Mj circus, youre the ones creating the circus.
bs, bs, and more bs. people go to a tabloid to sell a story with absolutely no evidence to show, because of course tabloids and gossip websites are soooooo reliable.
I agree pak31....Michael would be very upset and disappointed with this media circus of so called friends breaching his trust and confidentiality. How dare they exploit his children like this!Especially the two idiots proclaiming to be the children's mom..I am sad that the majority of the people who was around Michael...he couldn't trust ..and he knew it!
MJ would be so upset if he could see the way his kids are being treated right now. What is with this major quest to find all of these so called sperm/egg donors? His kids may have come into this world in a not so natural way but they WERE his kids. Now that he's dead all of this is coming out of the woodwork?? If we as a nation did this to all of the families who have had surrogate or adopted kids, there would be an out and out war.

China Association of Metal Scrap Utilization
SHANGHAI, China The Chinese governments latest five-year plan highlights the countrys scrap industry as a key sector, leading market players to expect government-backed growth in that industry in the near future.
The Chinese government said it wants to encourage moreand more-efficientrecycling of the growing reservoir of waste material emerging after decades of rapid economic growth, particularly as it encourages the steel industry to rely less on iron ore and more on ferrous scrap.
The government also wants to tackle Chinas carbon emissions and environmental problems by supporting the emergence of "clean" industries, such as recycling.
As part of the apparent policy shift, the government could apply a value-added tax (VAT) rebate on scrap sales starting next year, sources said.
The scrap industry association has been lobbying the government for possible incentives and "some tax cut is expected in 2013 to encourage production," a source at the China Association of Metal Scrap Utilization (CAMU) told AMM sister publication Steel First.
CAMU said it hopes the VAT will be slashed to 8.5 percent from 17 percent.
Ferrous scrap companies are now eagerly awaiting the expected tax cut, which may help them increase supply to meet growing demand for scrap.
"Chinas scrap supply remains tight and scrap only (accounts for) a small proportion of raw material feed at Chinese steel mills. To increase scrap supply and consumption, an incentive like a tax cut is needed," a steel mill source in eastern China said. A version of this article was first published by AMM sister publication Steel First.

35° 31.78' N, 123° 52.46' W; about 125 miles west-southwest of Point Piedras Blancas, California
September 20, 2012
NTSB Number: MAB-14-06
Adopted: April 15, 2014
On September 20, 2012, about 2030 local time, the 76-foot-long commercial fishing vessel Allison C sank about 125 miles off the coast of California, west-southwest of Point Piedras Blancas, after the vessel's engine room flooded. The three crewmembers and their cat abandoned the Allison C and were rescued without injury. The value of the vessel and its cargo was estimated as $277,000.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of the sinking of the Allison C was a loss of hull integrity from a leak in the engine room, which led to uncontrollable flooding.

Spirit Aerosystems Spokesperson Jarrod Bartlett issued the following statement:
We are asking our Wichita employees to monitor local media and check the following website for updates on returning to work, site access and other important information: www.twitter.com/SpiritAero. Spirit has suspended operations for Monday and Tuesday, employees should not come to work unless they are contacted directly."
Sunday, April 15, 2012
Spirit AeroSystems Spokesperson Jarrod Bartlett says Spirit will have no operations on Monday and Tuesday. Workers are to stay home unless called.
Sunday, April 15, 2012
Spirit Aerosystems is planning to brief reporters on storm damage to its Wichita facility. That briefing is set for approximately 10:00 a.m.
A company spokesperson says Spirit AeroSystems received significant damage to its facility on Saturday. The company suspended operations after the tornado.
Near MacArthur and K-15, downed power lines surrounded the edge of the complex. The storm ripped siding and roofing from buildings and littered the side of the road.
A few buildings had employees working at the time of the apparent tornado.
"It was pretty bad. The wind in the tunnel took off and vacuumed from one end to the other and then it went back the other way. You could hear parts of the roof coming off. It was pretty bad," said one employee.
Employees do not have to report to work, Saturday night and Sunday, unless contacted directly.
"Our first priority is the safety and well being of our employees. We are suspending operations tonight; employees who were scheduled to report to work tonight or tomorrow should not report unless contacted directly," said Jarrod Bartlett, spokesperson, in a statement.

|Bruised ribs could sideline Cadillac Williams against Saints
|Written by Admin
|Monday, 10 September 2007 10:06
Bruised ribs forced the third-year pro to sit out part of the Bucs' season-opening loss to the Seattle Seahawks. They could sideline him again Sunday when New Orleans (0-1) visits Raymond James Stadium for Tampa Bay's home opener.
Williams, who was slowed much of last season by injuries, will be listed as questionable for this week's game. If he can't play, Michael Pittman and Earnest Graham will share the workload against the Saints.
``Unfortunately, we're good at one thing now, offensively, and that's contingency planning. We've had a number of guys in and out of our lineup the last few seasons,'' said Gruden, who has used eight different starting quarterbacks since arriving in Tampa Bay in 2002.
``We're going to count on Cadillac playing, optimistically. But realistically, we understand he does have sore ribs. We'll plan for the other guys to have a bigger role in the ball game.''
Williams' importance to the offense is underscored by the fact that the Bucs are 9-0 in games in which he carries the ball at least 21 times. He had 12 carries for 60 yards before leaving Sunday's 20-6 loss after being hit simultaneously by two Seahawks in the third quarter.
Gruden said initial X-rays did not reveal any broken ribs. Quarterback Jeff Garcia was helped off the field during the same drive, but returned to the game.
``Bruised ribs are no fun for a running back in the opening game of the season. I think he had the same thing happen to him last year,'' said Gruden, who also may have to make a roster move if Williams can't play against New Orleans.
The Bucs played the season opener with only four running backs, a byproduct of the coach's decision to keep four quarterbacks at a time when most teams carry three and some only have two.
Williams rushed for 1,178 yards to run away with the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year award in 2005, but was bothered by injuries much of last season when he averaged just 3.5 yards per carry and finished with 798 yards and one touchdown.
``I don't know a lot of backs who I've been around who ever feel good after the opening game of the season. They've got sore elbows, they've got sore ribs, they've got sore backs, they've got sore legs,'' Gruden said.
``It's a violent profession. Those guys get hit. ... If he can go, and the trainers feel like he can go, he's going to go. We hope that he can.''
Williams was not available for comment.
Meanwhile, Gruden said cornerback Brian Kelly is questionable for the New Orleans game because of a groin strain. Receiver David Boston injured a foot during pregame warmups at Seattle and is probable. Defensive end Patrick Chukwurah missed the opener with a sore knee that will also keep him out against the Saints.

Sound Problem with new install Win 7 64 bit
My Soundcard will not properly in Win 7 64 bit. Although I (think) I have the right drivers and device manager says All OK the sound is crackly and very distorted.
Soundcard is a Soundblaster X-Fi SB0730. It works perfectly in Win XP and I also Win 7 32 bit (which I installed temporarily for a sound test). The motherboard is Gigabyte GA-M56S-S3.
All the Win 7 Updates have been installed.
The drivers I have tried are
Results were identical for both, except the 'A' one flashed up this message twice
Loading of MUI Resource failed
The application will exit.
I have tried both with and without compatible mode ticked in the driver setup, but unsure if this sets the mode for the driver, or just the install program. I can find no way to set that mode for the driver. A Google search brought up something saying compatible mode is needed.
Creative won't help as it is OEM product, and Microsoft said they'd get back to me but haven't for over two weeks.
Thanks for any help.
|My System Specs
|19 Jun 2013
Soundblaster did not (officially) support some of the Xfi cards for newer Operating Systems. We ran across when Win 7 came out on the Dell forums.
Your motherboard has RealTek audio and you would be better off using that as it is Win 7 compatible and Gigabyte has a Win 7 driver for it. http://www.gigabyte.com/products/pro...px?pid=2607#dl
Newer on-board (e.g. your Realtek) sound systems in many cases are as good as older SoundBlasters. I have a recording studio and use high end audio equipment for that, but for my PC Audio I use the RealTek on my Gigabyte motherboard, and on the ASUS motherboard in a backup system. I had an Xfi (high end model) installed on my recording studio system but for PC audio playback it didn't really improve the sound so I removed it and saved the space and power that it took.
Windows XP compatibility and compatibility for newer systems can be an issue, as XP handles some audio functions differently and the reason XP drivers will not work.
|My System Specs
|19 Jun 2013
Thanks for the reply fireberd. I did try the Realtek sound and I'm a bit surprised at your comments and I want to do recording work and much prefer the Creative products. The Realtek interface is a bit like a Superman comic and lacks the functionality of the SB mixer. But that's just personal preference... I did buy a SB5.1vx (SB 1070) and can use that as a last resort but it also lacks some features of the SB0730. But the really puzzling thing is, this works in my sons computer (64 bit Win 7) with no problems and I tested it there before buying my Windows 7 OS. LOL that really worked, didn't it !
|My System Specs
|19 Jun 2013
If you are going to do any serious recording work, get a separate "recording" interface unit. A 2 channel USB connected recording interface unit, such as the Focusrite Sarlett 2i2 is one example (it even comes with a recording program).
As I mentioned any recording studio recording work is done with my recording interface units and not the PC sound cards (I have a Roland Octa-Capture and an MAudio Fastrack Ultra 8R). One issue, among many, with PC sound cards (regardless of brand) is latency. PC sound cards, including the SoundBlasters, are notorious for latency problems.
I don't know what your specific mothetroard has, but many newer motherboards that have PCI slots are not true PCI bus slots but just bridged slots from the PCIe bus. I see a lot of issues and comments on the recording forums of users trying to use PCI recording equipment with newer boards with the bridged PCI slots. My Gigabyte Z77X UD5H motherboard is a prime example - it has a PCI slot but it is the bridged from the PCIe bus type, not a real PCI slot.

Phishers send their emails to millions of people in hopes that some of the people who receive them actually have an account on the financial site's systems and can be fooled into clicking on the links and submitting their login credentials.
4 of 10Image
When attempting to click on one of the links, the first Microsoft technology to warn you has nothing to do with Internet Explorer 7. But rather, it's the most recent version of Outlook 2003 that warns you this email could harbor a threat.
Outlook prevents you from actually clicking on the link until you activate the links by clicking on the grey warning bar (orange when highlighted) that turns up just above the email.
Once the link in the email is activated and clicked on, IE7 starts (if it's your default browser), and you go to the site and a warning appears with a pastel yellow background, next to the Web address at the top of the browser's toolbar, that this is a Suspicious Website. The Web address is given a pastel yellow background as well. From a user interface perspective, we feel that this is probably too subtle for a warning of this nature.

Chattanooga Woman Scores Milestone Ride on Kings Island Roller Coaster
MASON -- Kings Island on Friday gave its 100 millionth ride on the Racer roller coaster, which opened with the 364-acre amusement and waterpark in 1972.
The rider was Angela Marshall of Chattanooga, Tennessee, who received a Racer-themed airbrush T-shirt, a 2015 VIP tour for eight guests and a large sign proclaiming her as the twin-track coasters 100 millionth rider.
When the Racer debuted, it broke records as the worlds biggest, longest and fastest roller coaster. At speeds approaching 60 mph, it was the fastest, too. The Racer is credited for sparking the roller coaster-building boom in the early 1970s, launching the second golden age of the roller coaster. Its record year for most rides given was 1976, when a single-season park record 3,681,338 rides were given.
In addition to being considered an important part of the roller coaster renaissance of the 1970s, the Racer was the site of several world-record riding attempts and is notable for its appearance in the Cincinnati Kids episode of The Brady Bunch, filmed at Kings Island in 1973.
The Racer was also the first roller coaster built structurally on the ground with prefabricated sections lifted into position and bolted.
The Racer is the first attraction in Kings Islands 42-year history to give 100 million rides. The next closest attraction is the K.I. & Miami Valley Railroad at 51 million.

Oxygenation. If you've got a CO2 system, you could pump that in to the carboy on top of the beer and displace the O2 (CO2 is heavier, the O2 goes out, the CO2 stays in).
Is Nitrogen heavier than air? I should know but.. I'm cloudy. If it is, a cheap way to do it might be to get one of the canisters of nitrogen that is used for purging partial bottles of wine. Another thought I've had but haven't pursued is to get a ton of marbles.. sanitize them and use them to adjust headspace... A real positive with marbles, if it makes sense, is that the gunk will settle in the spaces and make racking cleaner????

Having delved into the minds of the world's most notorious murderers and published his findings in Talking with Serial Killers, renowned true-crime author Christopher Berry-Dee now turns his attention to the machinations of the gangster's mind and documents the extent of their cruelty and brutishness. From Tam McGraw, one of Scotland's most infamous gangsters, to "public enemy number one" Kenny Noye, every type of British gangster is examined. Although they are all very different, they do share a particular trait: a willingness to do anything to get what they want. While the reader may be able to breathe a sigh of relief that the characters in this book have been banished from our streets, Gangland UK is also a sharp reminder of the dangers still out there. Here are the startling portaits of those criminals who we would rather forget . . . but won't be able to.

What does everybody do to protect their wires from the open flame? I am trying to decided how to wire my setup and looking for suggestions on how to keep the wires from melting.
Haven't tried it yet myself (yet), butI've heard of some folks using this:
INSULTHERM - ULTRAFLEX - manufactured by TECHFLEX.
good for up to 1,200 deg.F
very flexible and soft fiberglass sleeving
Other sizes available 1/4 3/8 1/2http://www.ebay.com/itm/360234435258...84.m1438.l2649
I come awake........with the gift for womankind.
You're still asleep.......but the gift don't seem to mind.
~Ian Dury
What wires can't be re-located away from open flames?
Primary: Pre-prohibition Lager
Secondary: Russian Imperial Stout
Drinking: Chinook IPA
Drinking: Waldo Lake Amber
Drinking: Edwort's Apfelwein
Mine run in conduit from the PID box to the ASCO valves, but they're below the burners and valves and several inches away. The burner needle valves never get hot. I'm not worried about the wires below them getting too warm. They're in conduit to protect them from dropped objects, spilled wort, or general klutziness.
Thanks for suggestions, I will have to look into the ultraflex
I bought shielded K thermocouples and they have a braided outer cover and high temp insulation. I try to run all my wires sensibly and avoid as much of the heat as possible and if I do have to get close I tend to try and run it inside of the conduit of on top of a strut away from the flame wash as much as possible. Good luck, and if you approach your wiring from the top down it helps a great deal also.

Raspberry Velveeta cheese squares - old 1960s(?) recipe from Velveeta box - anyone know it?
- Full tummy Sep 21, 2009 06:39 PM
My husband grew up in Nova Scotia, and his grandmother used to make these squares (he claims they're delicious; I am summoning up as much tolerance as I can). It would be oh-so-nice to be able to surprise him with a batch. (Well, nice for him...)
Please, please, has anybody heard of this abomination? Any recipe(s) to share?
Did you check the Kraft(?) website? I threw my 1960's and 1970's Betty Crocker cookbooks away. It met the same fate as my "seal o' meal" and stuffed "kitchen witch"- remember that pantyhosed stuffed "witch" sitting on spoon handle? Anyway, sometimes it is hard to get those retro recipes. I think the internet is your best source. Try googling "retro appetizers" or something to that effect. Good luck!
re: sedimental
Thanks. I will continue my searches. I think this was supposed to be a dessert, though (hahaha-who knew??).
Your post intrigued me enough to do some searching (and I agree, it sounds awful but my family is from the Maritimes so I know sometimes they ate odd things like that back in the 60's!). Anyway, I couldn't find anything with raspberries and Velveeta and was wondering if maybe he meant 'cream cheese'. However, then I found a bunch of recipes for Velveeta Fudge - if you google it, you'll see all the links. Could it be something like that?
re: ms. clicquot
Thanks so much for your enthusiasm!!!
No, it was definitely not cream cheese. My husband's mother told him her mother got the recipe from the Velveeta box (she could be wrong, however).
As Hubby recalls:
"Imagine a thin layer of shortbread-type stuff, then a layer of raspberry jam on top of it, then a crumble on top, sort of like what is on top of apple crumble, but with cheese mixed into it. Something like that." (This is his memory from 30+ years ago, so he concedes it may not be 100% accurate.)
re: Full tummy
You can register for free on the Cooks Country website, which has a recipe board where you can post a request for these old lost recipes.
re: greygarious
Hey, thanks. And I just sent the question to Kraft Canada.
re: Full tummy
Hopefully they'll be able to help you out. I did find a couple of recipes which sound similar to what you're looking for but no mention of raspberries:
The apple and cheese combo sort of makes sense - my mom loves a slice of cheddar on her apple pie. I have to admit that I don't quite get it but each to their own. Good luck with your quest!
re: ms. clicquot
Here's an apple velveta cheese crumble recipe. It calls for Ritz crackers as the base... http://www.easy-applepie.com/apple-de...
Closer, perhaps?
re: The Dairy Queen
Oh, wow. That looks promising. I will ask Hubby when he gets home.
re: Full tummy
By the way, I never heard back from Kraft.
re: Full tummy
WOW.....I have been looking for this recipe for 20 years. I have even tried making it from scratch myself but never turned out the same. My Mom made it and they were a traditional favorite at Christmas with all us kids. My Mom is from New Germany Nova Scotia. We did have an old Kraft cookbook that I remember....long gone now. And it may also have been on the box. I have asked Kraft many times hoping their kitchen staff would be interested in making the recipe. Your husband is right very delicious. Like a matrimonial square. Bottom cake, raspberry jam filling and Crumbly tip. I remember cutting the velveeta cheese into the flour mixture till crumbly. Patting a layer in the pan, spreading jam and crumbly top. When baked the cheese would melt and brown. I'll let you know if I find the recipe and if you have found it please let me know. Thanks I've copied the recipe and will try it this weekend. I can't believe I found this...been looking a long time........
re: steinfam
How exciting!!
Since I posted our last recipe, we have made some modifications. Here is the recipe we have settled on so far. (Hubby's uncle came for a visit around the time we were working on it, and we served it to him; he claimed they were just as he remembered and took the rest of the batch home with him!!)
Raspberry cheese squares
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
3 tbsp brown sugar
1/4 tsp salt
6 oz chilled unsalted butter, cut into cubes
extra butter for greasing the pan
3.5 oz. Velveeta, cut into small cubes
3.5 oz. Cheese Whiz
7 tbsp raspberry jam
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Butter a 9" x 9" baking pan.
Sift together dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, brown sugar, salt)
Cut Velveeta, Cheese Whiz, and butter cubes into flour mixture with a pastry blender, until texture is like a mix of coarse sand and fine gravel (texture may be uneven).
Press half the mixture firmly into the bottom of the baking pan.
Heat jam for one minute in the microwave, and spread it evenly over the top with an offset spatula. (Dip offset spatula in warm water if jam is too sticky.)
Sprinkle remaining mixture evenly on top.
Bake for about 25 minutes, till top is somewhat browned.
Let cool and cut into squares.
Let us know which recipe you try and how it went. We use half Cheese Whiz because we're convinced (as others are) that today's Velveeta has a milder flavour than the Velveeta of years gone by.
re: Full tummy
I'm glad I checked for your response and found this new recipe. I'm trying it today. Now as I recall the recipe was on the Package. My Mom kept as a bookmark for her cookbook. Date squares and Cheese Dreams. They were her regular squares for our family gathering. Off to bake........Thanks
re: steinfam
Post back how it goes... you might find you need to make some modifications to it, too. Let me know.
Emailing Kraft was a great idea! And I agree, lots of people combine a slice of melted cheddar cheese with apple pie, so, maybe there's something to this. Please do let us know if you end up finding the recipe and how it turns out!
EDIT: Does the local Nova Scotia newspaper have a lost recipe person you can contact? Our newspaper has a columnist whose job it is to answer lost recipe questions. She has access to all kinds of old cookbooks and newspaper archives and such that we ordinary mere mortals do not have access to.
re: The Dairy Queen
Also a possibility, Uncle Phaedrus: http://hungrybrowser.com/
I don't know if this is the same person as the Chowhounder whose handle is Phaedrus.
Thanks so much, Everyone, for your enthusiasm!!! Will let you know if I hear anything from Kraft (nothing yet), or if anything else pans out.
Lots of great ideas here.
I have been searching for this recipe for over 20 years! I was very excited to see your post when I, yet once again, attempted to look for this recipe. I too am from NS and as a young girl my mother used to make these for me. Your husband is absolutely bang on in his description. They were absolutely delicious and such a warm memory for me. I will continue onward with my search and let you know if I ever find the recipe.
re: NovaScotia1962
Well, check out the recipe below and we can compare results!!!!
I collect cookbooks, including local ones put out by church groups, etc. around North America. I remembered that I have an old Maritime one that has tons of recipes for squares (we do love our squares!). I don't know if this is at all similar to what you're looking for but I found this:
Cheese Dreams
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 Tbsp brown sugar
1/4 lb. grated cheese (it does not specify what type of cheese)
1/4 tsp baking powder
Jam (again, it doesn't say what kind or how much)
1/4 lb. chilled butter
In a bowl, sift together flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in sugar and cheese. Cut butter into mixture.
Spread half of the mixture into a baking pan (no size indicated) and cover with a layer of jam. Top with remaining mixture.
Bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Cool and cut into squares to serve.
re: ms. clicquot
Oh my goodness!!!! I wonder if I should tell my husband first, or just make them. Thank you so much!!! I am leaning towards "just make them". It is very possible they could have taken the Velveeta recipe and made it generic. Will let you know!!!!! (Personally, I am skeptical as to how such a square could really be as delicious as he describes and not so looking forward to the result, but I have a thing against Velveeta and may have to get over this!!!)
re: Full tummy
Before you start, check this thread: http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/643234
Today's Velveeta is not the same as would have been around when your husband ate these bars. You may want to kick up the flavor by adding a little orange cheese powder (sometimes available in markets; otherwise get some boxed mac&cheese mix and use that powder), or substitute Cheez Whiz. Please report back on what you and he think - this is an intriguing recipe!
re: greygarious
Will definitely consider that if the first go yields unsatisfactory results.
Btw, ms. clicquot, I caved and told hubby. He thinks the recipe may be what he's been looking for, and his errand on the way home from work is to purchase Velveeta. We'll be baking tonight and will let everyone know how it turns out!!!
re: Full tummy
WOOHOO! I can't wait to read if they turn out to be what you are looking for and if they are any good. Please report back! Good luck!
re: The Dairy Queen
This will be the first thread I check out in the am! I am anxious to hear how they come out.
re: Full tummy
I'm so pleased that it looks like what you're looking for! I hope it turns out ok - I would assume that the original recipe used block cheddar cheese because that was pretty much the only kind of cheese we knew in that part of the world in the 60's and 70's. I've never used Velveeta - can you grate it like regular cheese? Good luck! I can't wait to hear how it turns out.
re: ms. clicquot
Velveeta is way too soft to grate but probably would work if you froze it first.
Looking at the recipe, I think it would be appropriate to use block American cheese (NOT cheese "product"), colby, or mild cheddar. The concept reminds me of apple pie with a cheddar crust. Apple butter would be a good alternate filling.
re: ms. clicquot
So, we made them tonight... Hubby is thrilled!!!! It needs a little tweaking, as the recipe didn't have enough cheese flavour. No surprise there. Eating Velveeta is like chewing on a diluted processed cheese slice. It also was too floury.
We will work on the recipe for the next few days, and I will post the version that meets his grandmother's standards.
Alas, I am trying not to comment about her (or his) standards--these squares aren't so dreamy. Sorry to say, but growing up on linzertorte, well, these are a whole different thing. (Hubby is reading this and says these squares blow linzertorte out of the water, hehehehe.) Might have to pull out the linzertorte recipe this weekend, so I can have something to enjoy, too.
So, thank you so, so, so, so much!!! Will post again.
By the way, instead of grating the Velveeta, we just cut it in with the butter. Worked very well.
re: Full tummy
This is a wonderful success story. I'm so glad that Ms. Clicquot was able to help you out. Too bad the Cheese Dreams are less than dreamy, but, I suppose we all have those things we crave from our childhood.
re: Full tummy
Good job Full tummy. :-) And as TDQ pointed out my guess is many of the things we fondly remember from childhood aren't quite as good as we remember.
re: Janet from Richmond
How true!!! In this case, I also feel that they are something he enjoys because he ate them as a child (I can't see myself getting into them). They are not tempting to me at all, which is good: I don't need a sweet calling my name.
He really is tremendously happy and grateful and says the squares are pretty much as he remembers them!!!
re: Full tummy
I'm so happy that the recipe was at least in the right direction of what you were looking for. I'm sure you'll be able to tweak it to get it just right for him. It's funny, I was thinking that maybe they should be called 'Cheese Nightmares' instead of Dreams but as I learned on another thread, Don't Yuck Someone's Yum! http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/657889
re: ms. clicquot
That is hilarious!!! I need to tease him some, though!!!
re: ms. clicquot
By the way, can you share the name of the cookbook, and date of publication, publisher, etc.?
re: Full tummy
The cookbook is an obscure one, to say the least. It's called 'The Grand Manan Cook Book' and was compiled by the Grand Manan Hospital Auxiliary and re-printed by the Grand Manan Historical Society in 2000. Grand Manan is a small island off the coast of N.B./Maine and my parents vacation there. I picked it up when we were visiting them a couple of years ago. The instructions and ingredient lists are very vague and casual, as would be expected from home cooks trying to recall their recipes from memory.
re: ms. clicquot
Oh, thanks. Hubby and I went camping in Grand Manan five or so years ago. It is a wonderful place where I ended up nose to nose with a humpback whale on a whalewatching adventure and visited the island where puffins breed. We loved it and would go back in a second, except that it's quite a trip from our home here in Toronto.
re: Full tummy
What a small world - I was last there about 5 years ago as well! I agree that it's too far from Toronto to visit regularly. It's a bit off the usual tourist path. It's neat to see some of the history of the cookbook (below). It's an interesting book, full of classic old recipes like ones my grandmother used to make. I might try putting a modern twist on a few of them.
re: ms. clicquot
I recall the excellent lobster dinners we had at the place just off the road with plastic checked tablecloths and a videostore, all in one. Plus, there was a pretty good bakery, with half-decent croissants. We camped at "Hole in the Wall", and I enjoyed learning about dulsing from one of the dulsers who camped there every summer. Great times!!!
re: ms. clicquot
According to this site, the first Grand Manan Cook Book was published to raise money for the island's first hospital back in the 1940s.
re: Full tummy
hey there. Just came across your request for the Cheese Dreams recipe
I hope you will see this. Im from Nova Scotia too and I recall these fondly.
Here is are the ingredients from my Mum's recipe
1/4 lb. velveeta
1 1/2 c. flour *(you mentioned yours were too floury with 2 c. this maybe why)
4 tbsp. brown sugar
1/4 lb. of shortening
1/4 tsp baking powder
dash of salt
raspberry jam
And they were quite delicious. I was just about to make some and wanted to check what was available as a recipe on the internet. And lo and behold there was your query!! Maybe you have to be a Nova Scotian to have the taste for them as you mentioned you didn't find them so dreamy! lol
However, as a whole I think we down here are quite the cheese eaters, even in our desserts lol.
re: BernadetteNS
So, just a couple of weeks ago, my husband's mom dug out the old recipe. (After all this hard work, folks!!! Thanks for the help.)
Here it is.
Raspberry Cheese Squares
Sift the following dry ingredients:
11/2 cups flour
1 tbsp sugar
1 tsp baking soda
Cut in 1/2 cup butter and 1/4 pound Velveeta.
Then follow the procedure as posted.
Because Velveeta tastes different now (must be a different formula), we still have to hit upon the right combination of Cheez Whiz/ Velveeta/ other spreadable cheddar-type cheeses to perfect the taste. Not sure this will happen...
Your recipe seems very similar, except for the use of shortening.
To be honest, I do enjoy them. Am craving some now... 3 months pregnant.
Actually, this recipe reminds me of the very popular trend of grilled cheese & jams sandwiches I see all over the Net without the bread component in the prep. I happen to love the grilled sandwich version so perhaps this one is yummy chow!
Thanks so much for all the help!!! Hubby has made the recipe three times and has arrived at a version that is pretty much like what his grandmother used to make. I even think it is better than expected (though not as good as linzertorte, heheheh). Here's the new recipe:
Modified Cheese Dreams
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking powder
3 Tbsp brown sugar
7 ounces Velveeta, cubed
3/8 lb. chilled butter, cubed
1/2 cup Raspberry jam, thinned with a little water, if necessary
In a bowl, sift together flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in sugar. Cut butter and Velveeta into mixture, till it resembles coarse crumbs.
Spread half of the mixture into a 9" square baking pan; press it into the pan. Spread the jam on top (use an offset spatula dipped in warm water).
Top with remaining mixture.
Bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Cool and cut into squares to serve.
well....... I'm glad your husband remebers some of his NS roots and Gramma's goodness. I have made this recipe two ways.. with cheese whiz and with Velveeta cheese. Velveeta cheese makes the nicer square but they don't last long so cheese whiz works fine too.
1/2 C hard margarine or cold butter
3 Tablespoons cheese whiz or velveeta cheese
1 Tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Combine all ingrediants in a bowl and cut in with a pastry blender until the texture of dry oatmeal. Press half of crumbs into 8 X 8 inch pan. Warm some raspberry jam in microwave ( makes it spread easier) and spread a layer on crust. Toss remaining crumbs on top and pat down gently. Bake in 350 oven for 30 minutes and you will be hooked! they taste great........ but even better by day 2. If they last that long!
re: pepsi2u
Wow! Will have to give that one a try, too. Where did you get it from?
re: Full tummy
i live in Nova scotia and these a re a common treat. Cheap and easy to make. I live in the Pictou county region........ your husband will know where that is. Did you try them??
re: pepsi2u
Yes, we made it today. He was very happy with it! My husband tells me to tell you that his grandmother was from New Glasgow.
Thanks for the recipe. We now have a number of options, all of which are quite good, even for me!!!
re: Full tummy
LOL Exactly where I am from..... good coal miners and Scots in the area. Also a large polish and dutch population tho. :) Nice to meet you. :)
Did you ever hear back from Kraft? If you can do a little digging, ask to contact the historian on staff or the reference librarian. It's good if you have a name first. I did that with a question for Hershey -- none of the regular customer service reps had the answer, but the librarian put her finger on it quickly. Just a thought.
re: maria lorraine
I sent an e-mail to Kraft and never heard back from them. But, that's a good suggestion. As things stand, though, my husband is pretty happy with the recipe we came up with.
re: punker
It may be the same recipe, but with cheddar cheese, instead of Velveeta. Do you have the actual recipe?
I've just read your post. DId you find the recipe? If not , I have it. My mother grew up in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia and we ate this recipe all the time. I love it and so do my friends. Let me know. I also have a collection of recipes. Perhaps your husband has some more to share. Thanks.
re: home cooking
I posted what we finally found on April 20, just above, but I sure would be interested to see your family recipe!!! Thanks!
1/4lb butter
1/4lb velveeta cheese
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 3/4 cups flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
jam/jelly (crabapple, apple, or raspberry)
Combine ingrediens. Pat 3/4 of mixture in an 8 inch square pan. Cover with jam or jelly. Crumble rest of mixture on top. Bake 25 minutes at 300. MAkes 16 to 24 squares.
re: lilmsmuffin
On a baking binge :) and steroids. I guess one explains the other. Will try these tonight. :)
re: lilmsmuffin
Looks very similar in terms of proportions. Thanks!! Hope they turned out well for you. Where, may I ask, did you come across the recipe?
re: lilmsmuffin
If I ever try this I would probably use MacLaren's cold pack sharp cheddar product (a procesed product in a tub, but much more flavourful than cheese wiz). It is used in cheese stars for example. Not sure if there is a product like that in the US
re: julesrules
I tried my recipe today with McLaren's sharp. :)
I think I found it!
Tastes like the old recipe! Cheeze Whiz is just not made like it used to be. nor taste like it used to. I switched the cheeze whiz for equal amounts of the sharp cheddar.
Happy happy
re: pepsi2u
Excellent :) I love old cheddar with jam, and I think cheeze whiz is pretty awful. So I figured the McLaren's would work!
I've also always wanted to try these:
But for now, I put my cheddar and jam on triscuit thins!
re: julesrules
I really have to try these - one of my favorite things is old cheese with fruitcake.
re: buttertart
I can't believe I had leftover squares to actually say this but they ARE better the second day .LOL I am sooooooo pleased with the results of this recipe fix. Thank you thank you and thank you again.
re: pepsi2u
You are so right! We noticed this as well. Almost makes you want to bake them a day ahead, but who can wait???
re: lilmsmuffin
@lilmsmuffin - In deciding what version of this recipe to use, I noticed that yours calls for a LOT more baking powder than everyone else's. Did you mean it, or is it supposed to be a half teaspoon?
I bought a small tub of Wispride cold pack sharp cheddar product with the intention of trying the raspberry cheese square recipe but when I sampled it, was disappointed that it had a weaker cheese flavor (also a paler color) than it once did. i used to buy it for cheese and cracker snacking but haven't ihad it in probably 20 yrs. Even more alarming was a snippet on the lid that there will be an even easier to spread new recipe coming soon. I take this to mean more shortening, less cheese. I have never seen the McLaren's brand here, but Wispride is among 3 or 4 labels in (suburban Boston) area supermarkets. So I haven't baked with it yet. If I can't find a cheesier one I'll grate in some cheddar.
re: greygarious
I found a tub of cheddar very like the McLaren version at Trader Joe's. Don't know if you have TJ in Boston, tho...
re: Full tummy
I shop there all the time. Is it TJ's own brand?
re: greygarious
I am not sure, but it's refrigerated in a colourless plastic tub. Let me know if you find it.
re: Full tummy
I finally made these today, with the TJ's cheese spread to which I added a few tbsps of cheddar powder. They are pretty good, but I ate one warm and perhaps I will like them better when they are chilled. If I ever make them again I will use apple butter or apple jelly and minced apples. I like cheddar with apple pie, so it would be close.
re: greygarious
Apple does sound nice. Apple pie without some cheese is like a kiss without a squeeze!
re: greygarious
They are even better the next day!
re: greygarious
Kraft dinner cheese powder............. i had some leftover and added it to cheese whiz........ more as an experiment for this recipe then anything........ worked nice but I am going to stick with the McLaren's cheese for now. Works great and I am pleased.
re: pepsi2u
Yes, I buy pound bags of that "orange gold" online from Barry Farm. But it would be nice to have a cold-pack cheese, or a velveeta-type (for the sake of smooth cheese sauce) that does not require hit-or-miss doctoring up, wouldn't it?
re: greygarious
Not looking for it there, the other day I happened to notice Hans' cold-packed cheese food in 8oz tubs in the gourmet cheese island at Roche Bros., a Boston area chain. I bought it and though I have not baked the squares yet (probably won't for a couple of months), I did taste some with crackers. Hoorah! It is what Wispride, Kaukauna, and similar brands USED to taste like. I suspect it is similar to McLaren's, which I do not see here. Hans' is from Chicago.
re: greygarious
Yay! Let me know how it all works out. I keep buying the McLaren's to make the squares but my husband keeps eating it with crackers before I get it made! I am so happy to finally have this recipe back in my "old stand-bys" list.:)
Grew up in NS also,same time...we used grated cheddar cheese and apple jelly....they are fabulous! I've just spent an hour online trying to find the recipe to get the proportions of ingredients.Have faith :)
Someone was apparently inspired enough by your quest, full tummy, that they posted about you: http://www.thefrillyapron.com/recipe-...
Here's a raspberry velveeta tart: http://orangiesattic.blogspot.com/201...
re: The Dairy Queen
Hey, it's nice that they gave full credit to our conversation here (food bloggers who pretend common recipes are their own being a small pet peeve of mine). But I want props for my MacLaren's contribution ;)
Joking. Mostly. Still need to try this some day!
re: The Dairy Queen
I like the idea, in the comments section, of using pepper jelly and making them as a savory nibble. Now I'm thinking Stonewall Farms Roasted Garlic and Onion Jam, or caramelized onion, or even salsa.
re: greygarious
That sounds pretty good. But why velveeta and not just ordinary cheddar cheese? Nevertheless, please let us know if you make them!
re: The Dairy Queen
Since Velveeta is not what it used to be, as mentioned by others on this thread, I'd use a cold packed cheddar "food" like Wispride or Kaukauna - no MacLaren's available here. I imagine shredded cheddar might make a crumblier dough than the processed spreads. I will write this down because I'm not baking in hot weather and I guarantee you I won't remember come autumn!
re: greygarious
I might have to remind you in autumn. :) I agree with you on the summer baking hiatus.
Here's a link to an old cheese apple squares recipe: http://www.food.com/recipe/cheese-app...
But everyone knows Full tummy's mother-in-law found her recipe, right? http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/6540...
I can share this one as it comes in a song. Google "Green Jello Marshmallow Cottage Cheese Surprise" for the YouTube rendition. You can jot down the actual recipe as it should go perfectly with the Velveeta Cheese Raspberry Squares...
Oh the power of the Internet. When I first read the name of these cookies I thought they were a cross between funny and gross. Now after reading through the whole thread I am thinking of making them.
re: Querencia
I was thinking of making them, too, until the OP reported back that velveeta has changed and it won't really taste the same... :(
re: The Dairy Queen
No, you would want to use the cold pack sharp cheddar product.... IMO :)
re: Querencia
Ha ha! That song is hilarious!

Bobbi Kristina Doubts Father Can "Rise Above" Alcoholismby Hilton Hater at . Comments
Bobby Brown has checked into rehab to deal with a reliance on alcohol. Good, encouraging news, right?
Not so much, says Bobbi Kristina Brown.
Brown's 18-year old daughter, who skipped out on her dad's recent wedding and is considering a name change, was asked about her father's attempts to get clean and whether she's proud of him for "rising above" his substance abuse issues.
"Rise above' is not the word you should use," Bobbi told TMZ in response to the question. "Not at all."
Ouch. Brown checked into a facility this week, following a March arrest for DUI and years worth of constant drinking. Bobbi doesn't think it will make a difference.
Let's hope he proves her wrong.
@FriendlyD, haha that was my point. I was inadvertently sayin' it's irrelevant to this topic, but I could not help jumpin' on the topic since you boldly started it. And I fully take responsibilty for me coming across rude too. Hah
@kats: obviously it IS relevant because you agreed and expounded upon my comment. Face up to it, it's relevant and true.
YaY !!! Team Daddy Hater! Bobby Brown is human waste, just like my own father.
@FriendlyD, while your comment is irrelevant and rude, I have to totally agree with you. She looks like Bobby Brown in a wig. I've always felt bad for her with looks like that, when she had such a pretty mom (pre-drug use Whitney, that is.) Bobby Brown will never ever get it together. Whatever. It's his perrogative. (Sorry lol.)
She is very unattractive. Woof...

empathy or Super Senses can tell the fighting strength or Power Level of an opponent, and even get the heebie jeebies or outright faint when the penultimate evil shows up, but how do you transmit that to viewers without stilted dialogue and stentorian theatrics? Using Stat-O-Vision! Whether it's thanks to a Robo Cam, a mystical talisman, or a cyborg eye, the character is privy to an Enemy Scan that shows their opponent's height, weight, age, fighting style, blood type and preferred brand of chewing gum. Expect any readings to be a Random Power Ranking; if the opponent is weaker, expect Trash Talking (and eating of crow once it turns out they're Not Left Handed) and if they're much, much stronger cries of "It's Over Nine Thousand!!!" with the prompt overloading of the device. Stylistically, expect a circle around the target or a shaded silhouette, and an architects line (a horizontal line which then inflects at an angle to a box of text). Other than the raw power being in big numbers, all the other stats' and trivia is usually very small, possibly in alienese. If you're watching it on a DVD that can pause and Zoom it will be loaded with Easter Eggs. Rapidly fluctuating bar graphs happen too. Newer videogames (including those based on Real Life or real history) will often have enemies' stats displayed when they are clicked, moused over or take a hit. This often comes in the form of a Hit Points bar above or around the crosshairs that changes appearance depending on the condition of the enemy. Older games and MMORPGs will have an enemy status display in the same format as the player's which appears in the same situations. See also Enemy Scan and Sensing You Are Outmatched. This is the Sci-Fi Counterpart of Aura Vision. See Also Augmented Reality, ongoing Real Life research towards making this trope reality.

The nation's economic troubles are also Wichita's economic troubles. But Wichita's housing market is faring better than in other parts of the country.
Wichita State University's Center for Real Estate is revising its area housing forecast to reflect this information and local economic changes.
Both new home and existing home sales for 2009 in the Wichita metro area will be down by double-digit numbers.
Wichitans Victor Son and Lauren Vo are house hunting again. They had looked last summer, but then stopped when the economy turned bad.
"We put it off for a while but now it seems like the interest is low. I'm hoping the price will go down as well," said Son.
It's been a difficult year on average for many local realtors with existing home sales down 16% in 2008 versus 2007.
Real estate professor Stan Longhofer told hundreds of realtors and housing lenders Friday that area home sales will be down this year as well. He's forecasting new home sales to be down 17% and existing home sales to be down 11%
"Homes are selling in about 40 days and home prices, while not rising at a rapid rate, are holding their own," Longhofer said.
He says there's not an over-supply of houses on the local market, which helps to keep the market stable.
"Transactions are down. But what that means is both buyers and sellers have been staying out of the market," Longhofer said.
That's why home prices aren't falling rapidly, which is disappointing to house shoppers like Victor Son, who was hoping local prices had dropped.
Realtors say they're having to battle the perception that Wichita's market is in the tank like other places.
"We're a local market, a local economy. So it doesn't really apply what's going on in California or Florida or Arizona. None of those places really matter when it comes to pricing," said new home marketing sales associate, Jennifer DeBrot.
