I've been playing around with an update to Hall Rating and thought I'd try to turn it into a Top 100 list, since I've been following the RealGM Top 100 Project debates. I'm using Win Shares as my basis here (so I can get all of NBA history), with all of the caveats that implies. … [Read more…]
Hall Rating Quick Update
A quick update to , using a newer ASPM regression. The data here includes only data from 1978 to 2014, so players who started their careers before 1978 will be underrepresented. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, for instance, was already 30 in 1978–and he had a hall of fame career after that! Hall Rating, as currently constituted, is … [Read more…]
ASPM Notes and Viz Update
I have added another pane to my 2012-13 ASPM/VORP Tableau Visualization, allowing a better look at the distribution of talent across positions in the NBA. Powered by Tableau The new position vs. ASPM chart is quite interesting: there is an amazing lack of talent/performance right now at the 2,3, and 4 positions outside of a … [Read more…]
2012-2013 ASPM & VORP Released
A quick note: 2012-2013 ASPM & VORP have now been released! See the new 2013 ASPM page. A few early notes: The cream is already rising to the top after 4 to 8 games for each team. LeBron James is #1 in total VORP, with an ASPM almost exactly the same as last year. The … [Read more…]
Overrated and Underrated via RAPM (Part 2)
A week ago, I discussed overrated and underrated players over the past 12 years, evaluated by comparing popular box-score stats with Jeremias Engelmann's 12 year average Regularized Adjusted Plus/Minus (RAPM) dataset. For a primer on the virtues of RAPM (in large samples), see my article reviewing the state-of-the-art of adjusted plus/minus and stabilization. This time, … [Read more…]
Underrated and Overrated Via RAPM
In several of my recent articles, I have been using Jeremias Engelmann's 12 year average RAPM dataset. Here, I will look at what players may have been underrated or overrated by even advanced stats over the course of the last 12 years. I decided to use PER and WS/48 as my advanced stats to compare … [Read more…]
RAPM vs. MPG (A Look at Replacement Level)
One of the big ongoing questions in NBA stats and player valuation is where to set "replacement level". I believe an empirical approach to determining that level is best. Jeremias Engelmann has produced an outstanding resource in his 12 year average RAPM data. Since so many years are used, it is quite stable; however, one … [Read more…]
2013 NBA ASPM Team Projections
Here are my 2013 NBA Team Projections, based on my ASPM player projections. For playing time, I roughly used ESPN's Fantasy Projections, tweaked so each team totaled 475% of the minutes (I assumed the rest of the minutes would go to replacement level (-3.25) players). Here are my regular season projections: I have updated these … [Read more…]

Savin Hill's McNamara feted as Boston's 'Best Neighbor'
May. 3, 2012
Four years ago, Carlos Vargas, the president of Vargas & Vargas Insurance, had the idea to create Boston's Best Neighbor award after reading a book about a similar program that honored California's Best Mother on Mother's Day.
With bad news on the economy and a foreclosure crisis in full swing, Vargas decided that the city needed to focus more on the good things and honor someone who went "above and beyond the call of neighborhood duty."
On April 26, Savin Hill resident Peter McNamara was honored as the winner of this year's Best Neighbor award for his dedication and commitment to the neighborhood. In total, McNamara received about five or six nominations sent into Vargas.
"Those letters really got me, and it was a pleasant surprise," McNamara said. "I don't think it's all sunk in yet."
He was honored at the Taste of Dorchester event last Thursday evening at the IBEW Hall, where guests sampled different food, appetizers, and desserts from about 24 neighborhood restaurants. The proceeds went to Massachusetts Affordable Housing Alliance (MAHA) and its efforts for sustainable homeownership.
Vargas said this year there were about 44 nominations suggesting neighbors from Hyde Park, Dorchester, and Jamaica Plain. People can make nominations by explaining to Vargas Insurance why they selected that person to receive the award and then they follow up with phone calls.
"It is a matter of who has the best story to tell," Vargas said. "Some folks thought it was more like American Idol where whoever receives the most votes gets nominated, but we are just looking for a good story."
The winner receives $2,000 and a plaque. The person who nominated the winner receives $500 as well as another $500 that goes to a charity they select, and the two runners-up each receive $250.
Originally from Beacon Hill, McNamara has spent the last 22 years living in Savin Hill, which he calls "a little piece of heaven." His contributions to the neighborhood include snow plowing Savin Hill Avenue, housing people who were homeless during a fire, creating an online crime discussion page, and also helping to create the Savin Hill Historic Advocates, which gives communities access to private funding.
"I love this neighborhood, and everyone gets along pretty well," he said. "It is a wonderful, diverse community with all nationalities, sexual orientations, people who lived here all their lives, blue collar, doctors, and lawyers."
McNamara plans to donate half of his winnings to create a community garden in Savin Hill. The garden he envisions would allow disabled or elderly residents who can't bend down to participate as well.
"I think that we have an obligation to take care of people and it doesn't take much," he said. "The best thing you can give is the gift of your time."
Leslie Doyle, who has known Peter for 12 years, wrote the first nomination letter for McNamara and was selected as the winner. She said it was "gratifying to be instrumental" in his nomination, and she also receives $500 since he received the award.
Along with the myriad of things he has contributed to the community, she said he has also helped people with marital and emotional problems. Although she moved from Savin Hill to Cedar Grove, Doyle is still in contact with him.
"He always goes out of his way to help people less fortunate than him," Doyle said. "I am really happy he is using some of the award money to help establish a community garden, which I think is a terrific idea."
John Moran, from Grampian Way, also nominated Peter for the award. In his nomination letter, he emphasized McNamara's contributions to the community, especially explaining the effectiveness of McNamara's online crime alert system that recently prevented a number of house break-ins and led to the individual's arrest.
"Peter is a corner stone in the mix that makes Savin Hill a very special, vibrant, safe place to live," he said in his nomination. "He is a gifted action man full of ideas with the fortitude to see ideas become reality."
Vargas said they are going to reach out to other neighborhoods for next year. He also said they might change the location to a different place if the winner comes from an area such as Allston, Brighton, or the North End.

Writing History:
Bob Woodward, Carl Bernstein
and Journalism's Finest Hour
Monday, October 20, 2014
About the Program:
On June 17, 1972 a simple botched break-in at the Democratic National Committee Headquarters in Washington, DC captured the attention of two intrepid reporters who uncovered a trail of corruption that led all the way up to our Commander-in-Chief.
On this edition of The Kalb Report, Pulitzer Prize winning reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein join journalist/scholar Marvin Kalb to recount their coverage of the Watergate scandal and the groundbreaking reporting that ultimately resulted in the resignation of President Richard M. Nixon 40 years ago.
The Kalb Report series is produced jointly by The National Press Club Journalism Institute, the George Washington University School of Media and Public Affairs, Harvard University's Shorenstein Center, University of Maryland University College and the Philip Merrill College of Journalism at the University of Maryland.

45 Words:
A Conversation with U.S. Supreme Court Justices
Antonin Scalia and Ruth Bader Ginsburg
on the First Amendment
Thursday, April 17, 2014
About the Program:
One sentence, just 45 words in length, proclaims and promises the freedoms that define American democracy. The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guarantees the right to freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, and the right to petition one's government. It is the duty of the justices of the Supreme Court of the United States to interpret the constitution and to rule on the legality of legislation.
On this edition of The Kalb Report, Supreme Court Justices Antonin Scalia and Ruth Bader Ginsburg join journalist/scholar Marvin Kalb to offer their views of those 45 words in a rare glimpse behind the gavel and inside one of our nation's vital branches of government.

text: The Tea Party plays the game of thrones by John Hayward 21 Jun 2013 View Discussion Share This: In response to In 2012, Tea Party's Mistakes Compounded IRS Abuse: That's an excellent analysis. I hope a contemplation of the IRS scandal's possible effects on the election doesn't lead anyone to ignore mistakes made by the Tea Party, the Romney campaign, or any other element of the Republican coalition. That would be a terrible error. I do find it fascinating that the voter suppression aspect of the IRS scandal has been completely ignored by the mainstream press. You just know that if this were a Republican scandal, that would be the headline item, and Democrats would be howling to the moon about it. A lot of them are still nursing dark fantasies about the "stolen" 2000 election; they use it in fundraising letters, and rail about it at political rallies. To borrow a phrase from the title of the AEI post I referred to, it's an article of faith on much of the Left that George Bush was an "asterisk" President. Now, imagine Bush's IRS had been caught suppressing progressive grassroots groups during his 2004 re-election campaign. I generally dislike grim hypothetical speculation that essentially accuses people of things they might have done, but I feel on pretty safe ground in saying there would have been widespread demonstrations, possibly violent ones. And you'd better believe heads would have rolled long before now. The media would be camped outside every IRS official's door, trying to coax out that all-important White House link to bring down the Administration. I suspect there would have been Democrats in Congress openly questioning the legitimacy of the election. Even if a Republican president survived such a scandal and remained in office, it would become a massive rallying point for Democrat groups in the next few elections. Maybe that will happen here, but it remains to be seen. You can bet the media will be standing by to jump down the throats of any Tea Party group that makes too big a deal of it. Your analysis of the Tea Party's errors reminds me of what I see as the central premise of the popular "Game of Thrones" books and TV show: the importance of carefully cultivating power, and honoring its requirements. Characters in this story repeatedly come to ruin by mistakenly believing the rules of politics don't really apply to them, because they're righteous, or benevolent, or entitled. As a widely dispersed collection of grassroots groups motivated by principle, the Tea Party often makes that mistake. They naturally dislike the compromises necessary for effective central leadership - that's one of their big beefs against the Republican Party. But if you don't make such compromises, you don't get the benefits of organization. Among other things, that means the entire loosely-organized movement is easily held accountable for anything said by anyone within it. It becomes possible for the movement to be hijacked, or squander its influence on dead-end battles. There's a lot of internecine warfare. And, in a bitter irony, when the exact sort of abuse the Tea Party organized to fight was perpetrated against them, they discovered that grassroots outsiders don't have the political clout to protect themselves. Their complaints never really brought anyone to the rescue - the only reason this blew up into a huge scandal was the noxious Lois Lerner's panicked need to get out in front of the impending Inspector General report. Obama and top Democrats pointed at the Tea Party and said "sic 'em." The IRS (and other agencies, don't forget!) promptly lunged. Nobody lifted a finger to stop them, even though abuses were reported by the victims fairly quickly. If this had all been happening to progressive or liberal minority groups under a Republican Administration, their protests would have brought immediate congressional response and media coverage; the Democrat version of someone like Frank VanderSloot or Catherine Englebrecht would have become an overnight national celebrity; movies about them would already be in the works. If the Tea Party doesn't master the rules of the dismal game it hates, they'll never acquire that kind of influence. It certainly didn't help that no small number of Republican officials and power brokers didn't mind seeing them escorted to the Red Wedding by the IRS.

Every billionaire needs a PANZER TANK, right? STOP THERE, Paul Allen
"Don't worry, Allen hasn't gone all tinfoil hat"
I believe that's why he bought the tank - it offers a far superior Faraday cage than a tinfoil hat!
Pedants beware!
Panzer = armour
Kampf = combat
Wagen = vehicle
so Panzerkampfwagen = tank
and Panzer tank = armoured tank - so while somewhat pleonastic, it's by no means two words with the same meaning.
Nothing attracts pedantry like an error in a pedantic post...

the use of the word 'inaccurate' in the first sentence, as opposed to 'false' in other sentences.
When I spy on hundreds of millions of computers, if you say I spy on millions, that's not false - after all, millions are a subset of hundreds of millions. However, it is inaccurate.
Or if I spy on millions of PC's, laptops, mainframes and smartphones, then saying 'millions of computers' would be inaccurate. Although they all contain processors and do some computing and as such might be classified as 'computers', so the statement is definitely not 'false', colloquially they are not classified under this general name and as such you can get away with 'inaccurate'.
Oh how we love pedantry... and reading this statement, we're clearly not the only ones!

Sueball-happy patent biz slaps lawsuits on FOURTEEN tech firms
Re: @ skelband Here's a thought
"I know it makes patent licensing impossible, but I believe that licensing should not be permitted in the law either."
Stupidest thing I've heard in all this patent babble: licensing is what patents were created for. Or do you expect all inventors to be great managers and great salesmen? And even if they were, if I have a fantastic product (i.e. "car") that requires your invention to work (i.e. "wheel"), I would have no choice but to buy it from you. Can't supply enough? Tough luck. Quality assurance issues? Tough luck. Want some small modification? No, can't be bothered with that. Now, if I take a license on your invention, I can use it in my product, adjust it, all while funding your research for improving the invention.
Let's also not forget that without licensing, there'd be practically no standards (a lot of technology in e.g. DRAM-standards is licensed on FRAND terms) - the only way to make an invention into a standard would be to make a monopoly out of it. And we all love monopoly's, don't we.

Re: OY! Units!
IIRC: NYDRC (No, You Don't Recall Correctly) - the standardisation was solely for the El Reg's Special Projects Bureau. The only agreement made for the Reg as a whole was the inclusion of some proper Vulture units (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/08/24/vulture_central_standards/), but there was no unit included for temperature.
Maybe the Vulture Board should comtemplate including a unit for 'hotness' - so which one ranks higher, the Paris or the Lohan?

I immediately destroyed all the cookies on my machine, which solved it (temporarily).

However, the flip side: when marketing firms realised they cannot reach their public by phone any more, they switched to door-to-door sales tactics - which are, in my opinion, a lot more pain in the donkey.

This article outlines the class loader hierarchy employed by SonarQube and is intended to assist plugin authors in understanding what classes/resources are accessible to their plugins at runtime.
SonarQube Classloader
The SonarQube classloader:
- Server side - is provided by the application server.
- Maven execution - is a Maven plugin class loader :
- Ant execution - is an Ant class loader :
Plugin Classloader
For each plugin, a classloader is created as a child of the SonarQube classloader. By default, the plugin classloader uses parent-first delegation model.
Search order for parent-first model:
- parent class loader
- classes exported from other plugins (see next section)
- classes in plugin
A plugin can explicitly use the child-first model (see the property useChildFirstClassLoader). In this case, the search order is :
- classes exported from other plugins (see next section)
- classes in plugin
- parent class loader
How to Share Classes Between Plugins
Each plugin has its own class loader, so by default a plugin cannot use a class defined in other plugins. This constraint can be bypassed if a plugin explicitly exports a subset of classes. These classes must be defined in the package
"org.sonar.plugins.<plugin key>.api" or any of its potential sub-packages. For this reason this feature is reserved to the plugins hosted in the forge of open-source plugins.
For example the DBCleaner plugin shares the class
org.sonar.plugins.dbcleaner.api.PeriodCleaner. Any plugin can use this class.

Getting Hitched: Lesbian Weddings in Film and TV
"Don't Hide Love" (2004)
Whoopi came and
went on the television scene in just a few months, probably because 2004 wasn't
ready for its bombastic anti-Bush, anti-Iraq war comedy. It starred comedian
Whoopi Goldberg as a has-been singer now running an unsuccessful hotel in
before the show aired its final episode, Whoopi let her lesbian cousin get
married at the hotel.
Viewers seem to be
experiencing some buyer's remorse at the show's failure, and rumors surface
from time to time about a DVD release, but for now, the episode is not
available anywhere, and it's unclear whether or not the wedding was actually
shown in the episode.
The Simpsons:
"There's Something About Marrying" (2005)
This episode of Fox's animated
series The Simpsons
would have made the list even if all it contained was Marge's sister, Patty,
coming out as a lesbian and announcing her plans to marry her girlfriend — even
if she did call it off when she found out her bride was a man in disguise.
But that wasn't
all. In typical over-the-top Simpsons style, the town of Springfield
fights against having been tagged the "least desirable" place to live
in America by turning to the burgeoning same-sex wedding market and trying to
capture some queer tourist dollars for themselves. Homer converts the family
garage into a same-sex wedding chapel, and starts each ceremony with the
phrase, "Queerly beloved …"
Marge has some serious
issues with her sister's lesbianism when Patty finally tells her she's a
lesbian, responding to Marge's disbelief by saying, "You could see it from
space!" (There was also the poster of Miss Hathaway from The Beverly
Hillbillies that Patty had as a child.)
In a stirring plea for
her sister's understanding, Patty says, "Marge, if you can find it in your
heart to accept me for who I am, I would love to see you at the wedding."
With indomitable spirit, however, she adds, "If not, I'll see you at Homer's
Marge discovers that Patty's
girlfriend, Veronica, is actually a man who pretended to be a woman in order to
join the LPGA tour, but she doesn't tell Patty. Only when Patty's vows at the
altar — well, in the Simpson's garage-turned-wedding-chapel, anyway — make her
realize that her sister genuinely loves "Veronica" does she speak up.
There are a million
things to love about this episode, including the fact that it exists at all,
but viewers would have to be seriously in denial to miss the message of
acceptance and inclusion, delivered with the trademark Simpsons snark. The Simpsons
is also the longest-running television series in history, and it's significant
that producers chose to make a series regular a lesbian instead of having a very
special guest appearance by the voice of someone like Rosie O'Donnell.
Cable Television
Cable is surprisingly
short on same-sex weddings in scripted television, especially ones that
actually end up making it all the way to "I do." In fact, if it weren't
for Queer as Folk and a single episode of the Canadian series Degrassi:
The Next Generation, there wouldn't even be one, although Shane and Carmen
got pretty close in Season 3 of The L
Queer as Folk
Probably known better for
putting the "sex" rather than "wedding" into "same-sex,"
Queer as Folk actually had quite a few weddings, proposals, planned
weddings and wedding rings — and one incredibly romantic wedding night.
Since the show's male
characters started out with a profound aversion to any form of romantic
commitment, the series' first wedding was that of the show's only lesbian
couple, Melanie (Michelle Clunie) and Lindsay (Thea Gill), who marched down the
aisle two seasons before any of the commitment-phobic male characters so much
as contemplated the deed.
While there's a certain
amount of stereotyping involved in making the only lesbian story lines on the
most sexed-out show in TV history revolve mostly around weddings and babies, Melanie
and Lindsay's struggle to define their relationship in contrast to Lindsay's upper-crust
parents and their promiscuous gay male friends is actually pretty nuanced.

The 2011 Brooklyn Beardfest & Stache Bash is a New Years Eve of sortsthough instead of counting down to the New Year, this festival celebrates the incoming of Facial Hair February. Before the hour strikes midnight, plan on listening to bands with beards (Neckbeard Telecaster, Los Encantados) and mustached DJs (Jon Mizrachi) and even checking out some dancing ladies with face fuzz (Beard-Lesque). And for all you facial-hair aficionados, like myself, who love hair-themed goodies, there will be plenty of vendors selling mustache necklaces and beard comb necklaces, beard bowties and pillows and even mustaches and beards on a stick, in case you feel a little naked up top and dont want to feel left out.

Need breakfast ideas with a few restrictions (okay, maybe a lot)
- Miss Needle Mar 9, 2009 11:54 AM
Hi. Due to certain circumstances, DH needs breakfast ideas that are:
1. Can be served at room temperature or cold
2. Easy to eat and not too messy -- will probably have to eat it quickly at his desk
3. Preferably gluten-free (not a celiac, but feels better when he avoids gluten)
4. Is not yogurt or cereal (he hates the stuff)
He refuses to eat breakfast at home because he doesn't want to wake up earlier than he absolutely has to. I'm really trying to rack my brain coming up with ideas. It would definitely be easier if gluten wasn't an issue. So far, I've got:
Tortilla Espanol
Fruit, fruit salad
Fried rice
Onigiri (stuffed rice balls wrapped with seaweed)
Maki rolls
Almond milk banana flax seed shakes or other smoothies (btw, do these things transport well -- he's got over a 1.5 hour commute taking commuter train and then driving)
re: modthyrth
What's baked oatmeal? Is it different in consistency as stovetop oatmeal? He sniffed at my steelcut oats with kabocha squash, honey and cinnamon I was eating this morning.
re: Miss Needle
Oh, that reminds me. He's also not a fan of squash, legumes and sweet potatoes. I grew up eating steamed kabocha squash and sweet potatoes for breakfast as teenager. And I think there are probably some interesting things you can do with legumes that can be eaten cold such as bean salads.
re: Miss Needle
I can't stand regular oatmeal (was forced to eat far too many bowls as a child and will never willingly eat another bowl of the standard stovetop stuff again in my life), but I really like baked oatmeal.
I made this a lot when I was on the Weight Watchers CORE program (pregnant now), because it was so healthy and filling. Feel free to use sugar or agave syrup instead of the Splenda, and go crazy with the flavorings. My favorite variation is to throw in about a half cup of sugar-free Monin brand caramel syrup and some fresh or frozen fruit (mixed berries and apples are great). Add some cinnamon or cardamom or whatever spices you like. It's easy to adapt the recipe to your favorite tastes.
Baked Oatmeal
Dry Ingredients:
3 cups Old Fashion Oatmeal
2 t. baking powder (I've accidentally left this out and actually liked the texture better)
1/2 t. salt
1/2 t. cinnamon
2 T Splenda or similar sweetener (possibly more or less to taste)
Wet Ingredients:
1 t. vanilla
1 cup FF milk
1/2 cup applesauce
2 eggs (or 1/2 cup egg beaters)
Optional (but highly suggested)
1 smashed very ripe banana
1 cup frozen strawberries
1/2 cup frozen blueberries
Preheat to 350 F. Mix together all ingredients and bake for 35 minutes in a 9x9 pan. Can be eaten warm or cold.
re: modthyrth
I love baked oatmeal, though my version is much higher in fat and calories than yours. I soak mine overnight to let the oatmeal absorb it all first.
re: modthyrth
Baked oatmeal is delicious- I usually add in some chopped up dried fruit or fresh berries. Instead of baking in a large pan, I bake in muffin tins or ramekins so that each piece is a serving. I think the recipe is from BHG or LHJ
In addition to tortilla español, any kind of frittata would work, as they are tasty at room temp. That means endless variety in terms of veggies, cheeses, and herbs.
It's possible that I either missed something, or misunderstood, but I'd say a frittata...With the right ingredients, can work very well cold. Green onion, bacon, and cheddar? Works for me!
I make something that I call a "guiltless quiche" for lack of a better name. It's simple to prepare, filling, quite nutritious and yummy, if I must say so myself! You'll need about 1 1/2 - 2 cups of shredded potatoes (I use app. 1/2 bag of "Simply Potatoes" hashbrown shred) 6 egg whites plus 3 whole eggs, about 1/4 of milk, plus whatever fillings you like. I use vegetables such as broccoli, diced red bell pepper and onions. You can add cubed ham and and cheese if you don't want or need to keep it light/veggie.
Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. Coat a 9" pie pan with non-stick spray and press the shredded potatoes in the bottom and up the sides making your "crust" and lightly sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place in oven for app. 15 -20 minutes. While the potatoes bake, lightly steam broccoli and sautee other vegetables (onions, mushrooms, bell peppers, etc.) Whisk together eggs, milk, salt and pepper .
When potatoes have baked for 15-20 minutes, remove from oven. Pour egg mixture on top. Add fillings - vegetables, ham cheese, the sky is the limit here. Bake another 15 - 20 minutes, until eggs are set.
This wraps up and is very easily transported. It reheats well but can be eaten at room temp. and makes a great snack as well. Hope you enjoy!!
Does he like cottage cheese? Mixed with gluten free granola and bananas and a little bit of cinnamon--yum!
Thanks for your responses, guys! Keep em coming if you know of any more things.
The baked oatmeal sounds really yummy. I'll definitely be trying that in the future. And frittatas are excellent ideas! I would probably mix in some egg whites with whole eggs to make it a bit healthier. Guiltless quiche sounds great as well. Speaking of potatoes, I guess I could make samosas with rice paper, and some rice noodle dishes.
And, no, unfortunately he's not a big fan of cottage cheese. Ha! I didn't realize how picky he could be. He eats all sorts of things like hearts, kidneys and liver. But give him some milk-like substance, beans, or items high in beta-carotene, he turns into a wuss. : )
re: Miss Needle
in terms of eggs/frittatas, you can also make them for him in muffin tins, so they'll be easily transportable, and you can even vary the fillings within the same batch.
quinoa is great at room temp - you could do a pilaf with his favorite fruit, nuts & spices.
re: goodhealthgourmet
Oh, that's a good idea about the frittatas and the quinoa. He (and I) both love quinoa.
re: Miss Needle
Here's one of my favorite quinoa dishes, a curried quinoa and mango salad:
It's also excellent with some diced chicken mixed in. Great cold, warm, or inbetween.
re: modthyrth
good stuff.
Okay...hold onto yourself...could he/would he eat smoked kippers for breakfast? Very healthy if you find a lower-sodium brand, though the aroma may offend co-workers seated nearby...I love the darned things! But usually have to skulk off to the kitchen to eat them, breakfast OR lunch.
re: purple goddess
Good to know that smoothies keep for a bit.
Personally, I'm of the yesterday's leftovers for breakfast persuasion. I can eat cold soup out of the fridge, but I don't necessarily recommend that for everyone. What about getting a wide-mouth thermos, and then you could fill with any number of things -- soupy, noodly, eggy -- that would stay warm and give you more options for the winter months. Of course, come spring and summer, smoothies and fruit bowls sound more appealing.
Rich chicken broth with scallions and a few rice cakes on the side, creamed hard boiled eggs with home-made corn tortilla chips, greens and potatoes cooked with a ham hock.
re: piccola
Do you know if there are gluten-free pierogies around?
re: Miss Needle
there's a GF bakery out here in Jersey whose pierogies got rave reviews from the Celiac Chicks.
there's also brand called Conte's that makes a dedicated GF line of pierogies, ravioli & pastas. i have no idea if they're any good, but you can buy them online (either from Amazon or one of the celiac specialty sites), or call the company to find out if any stores in the city carry them.
and finally, you *could* attempt to make them yourself...
there are more on the web, but those seemed like a good place to start.
i was going to suggest quiche, frittata or strata. I've also seen a couple baked french toast recipes floating around.
i used to get gluten free baking mixes, but can't find the company any longer. whole foods does carry some GF breads tho, and they could be used in a strata or french toast.
i make a brown rice au gratin- like a crustless quiche, w/ wheat germ and sunflower seeds, gruyere, onion.
dense, easy to transport. room temp or nuked it works. if that appeals i can get recipe to you.
Core an apple or a pear and stuff the hole with a mix peanut butter & raisins. Celery stuffed with hummus is eaten by my friends who are veggie-avoiders. Arepas (south american corn griddle cakes), slit open and stuffed with whatever --ham & cheese, avocado chicken salad, black beans & chipotle cream cheese.
Thank you guys so much for all the inspiration and ideas! You have been so helpful and my husband will be eating very well!
If you have the ingredients, you can make fan tuan but leave out the cruller. I love the rice, dried pork, salty vegetable combo. You can roll them in plastic wrap and it is easy to grab and eat.
We have shakes for breakfast over here. I mix GreensFirst with Dream Protein and simply shake it up with water. Mid-morning I'll have a boiled egg and an apple or something of that nature.
Sometimes we have oatmeal - I'll fix a big batch, then you simply reheat your portion and sprinkle on some fresh walnuts and raisins.
re: kaaris
We eat Paula Wolfert's Biblical Breakfast Burritos. They're really tasty and also very healthy. You make a salad of tomatoes, bell peppers, green onions, feta cheese, and mint. Sprinkle some chili flakes over and mix in. Add some olive oil, stir and eat right away in pita halves or leave in fridge overnight and take to work in the morning. If you heat up the pita in the microwave for a short spell, it's even better. This is great stuff. We got so addicted we ate it every morning for months. You can also add cukes, radishes, cilantro, whatever...well, not chocolate, I guess.

SUDLERSVILLE, Md. (AP) - Maryland officials say a military practice bomb landed in a tavern parking lot but no one was injured.
The state fire marshal's office says witnesses reported the bomb fell from the sky Thursday night onto the paved parking lot at Darlene's Tavern in Sudlersville. Deputy State Fire Marshal Bruce Bouch says the device did not contain explosive material.
After first responders cleared away debris to find a military style bomb, the fire marshal's office bomb technicians were called in. They determined the device was a practice aerial bomb that would have been dropped by military aircraft flying in the area.
Bouch says the bomb was turned over to the 175th Wing Air National Guard, which is working to determine how it was dropped in that spot.

Deciding whether or not to breastfeed your child is a highly personal decision that each new mother must make for herself. But Laila Ali, the daughter of legendary boxer Mohammed Ali, says that weaning her older children to a bottle was a mistake - and with her third, she hopes to be able to breastfeed naturally as long as she can.Ali started giving her now 2-year-old son C.J. a bottle after about a week, hoping to take some of the pressure of new motherhood off of herself and onto her
As your pregnancy progresses, finding a comfortable way to sleep can start to feel like an arduous task. With your giant belly in the way, lying on your stomach becomes impossible, and resting on your back can make it feel like your baby is crushing your internal organs. So what's the most comfortable and safest way for pregnant women to get their 40 winks?If you want to get a little shuteye while keeping things as comfy as possible for both you and your baby, you'll want to sleep on
You might think that becoming a new parent is all cooing babies, warm milk bottles and adorable onesies, but there is one part of parenting that no one likes to remember: diapers. Changing diapers is the most notoriously unwelcome part of parenthood, but it doesn't have to be a dreaded event. While we doubt you'll ever leap at the chance to change Junior's undies, these essentials will make the process much easier.1. Wipes. Baby wipes are essential to ensure a clean bottom
Breastfeeding is natural, beautiful and enjoyable for many women, but it isn't always easy. While most experts agree that mother's milk is the best nourishment for infants, nursing can be a challenge for those with sensitive skin, larger breasts or babies who have difficulties latching on. If you want to nurse your little one and have had some difficulties with the process so far, here are a few tips. It might seem logical to lay your baby in your lap and bend down to feed her, but this
Whether you've been ready for weeks or your water breaks unexpectedly in the middle of the night, going into labor is exciting, anxiety-ridden and scary all at once. Just remember, you're not the first to do it - hundreds of thousands of women give birth every single day, and they've been doing it for millions of years. Once you're certain you're in labor, however, there are lots of things you should grab before you run to the hospital in order to make your delivery as easy
If you're waiting until your delivery date to find out if you're having a little boy or a little girl, the suspense must be killing you! Although it's exciting to surprise yourself, it's also fun to indulge some old wives' tales and see if you can't guess what Junior's gender will be once he or she finally arrives. Here are a few old-fashioned ways to predict which sex you're expecting. 1. The pendulum test. To try this one out, tie a piece of your hair around a
Victoria and David Beckham have just become parents for the fourth time! Posh and her famous footballer husband have welcomed their first girl to the family, and her name is Harper Seven. The Beckhams already have three boys - Brooklyn, 12, Romeo, 8, and Cruz, 6 - so their crazy-baby-naming skills are already well-honed. So how did the new parents settle on the name Harper? And what's the deal with Seven? Well, according to People magazine, the story's not that complicated. Harper is an
As soon as you find out you're pregnant, the first thing that comes to mind is, "When will my baby be here?" Of course, calculating the exact date that your little one will arrive is a very inexact science. So when the doctor tells you the news, just how accurate can you expect it to be?Your due date is calculated from the date of your last menstrual period, or LMP. Most women ovulate around the 14th day of their cycles, and the average pregnancy lasts 280 days, or 40 weeks, from the LMP

The economics of UC
Building a business case for Unified Communications (UC) is not a clear cut process, with ROI numbers being difficult to derive, and sometimes not really conveying a meaningful value to the business. The endeavours of vendors and the corresponding push-back from businesses in this area is testament to how much of an issue this …
don't forget the user interface
sadly most corporate UC solutions fail to offer the same user experience or capabilities of typical consumer products... so are not especially compelling for non-deskbound workers anyway.
Skype for instance offers a pure VoIP client that (used to) run on a wide range of cellphones. It offers video calling and Outlook integration
Digsby supports cross platform/service IM and Video
Google Voice, Ribbit or Line2 offer proper VoIP on mobile, call forwarding, hunt groups, automated (though sometimes laughable) speech to text message taking
Apple - with the iPhone - proved very clearly that an Enterprise solution today needs to take a long hard look at the user experience before simply mandating technology that looks good on paper otherwise you'll end up with work-arounds and departmental deviations that will just cause trouble down the line.
In some cases that means Skype or similar is a better fit than an Enterprise UC product ... so those vendors need to lift their game and quickly if they want to justify their price point
