He() said: If they do not abandon it, fight with them.� ( Sunan Abu-Dawud, Book 26: Drinks (Kitab Al-Ashribah)
Isopropyl Alcohol is a Haram ingredient.
I have no information on it in India. You have to contact the manufacturer in India to ask whether it is made with animal dervied ingredients or not. Also is there any alcohol used in fragrance although it has no fragrance.
The source above ingredients is known to manufacturer only no body knows about it.
If it is 100% oil obtained by pressing the seeds then it is Halal.
Please search it on our website.
If it is in India then I do not know.
Sknner with Red wine is Haram because red wine or any wine is Haram. This is basic Islamic knowledge.
If there is no kosher symbol on the package then it is not Halal.
Please this question on Ask Question.
Please ask manufacturer whether the above ingredients are obtained from animal by product or plant by product and is there any alcohol used in extract because the company is only one who knows the source of above ingredients.
Urea used in cosmetic products do not obtained from human urea but from mineral or synthetic sources.
Alcohol is hinden ingredient of fragrance. You also find these products too:
What are Cetyl Alcohol, Stearyl Alcohol, Butyl Alcohol, Lauryl and Oleyl Alcohol used in Personal Care Products. Are they Halal:
All above alcohol are not Ethyl Alcohol but they are fatty alcohol or fatty waxes made from either animal fat such as pork fat or vegetable fat such as soy fat. Only manufacturer will know the source of these ingredients. If any personal care company says that no animal derived ingredients are used in their products containing above alcohols it means they are obtained from vegetable fat.
I did not research it.
Yes, paper plates and foam cups. Please search for Halal one.
Benzyl alcohol is Halal.
If there is no kosher symbol then it is not Halal.
MCG has contacted the Body Shop Company on August 30, 2013 and asked about reference number 63461 a e-mail received from The Body Shop by our sister Mrs. Ajmal and send to MCG (the e-mail is listed below). Beside her, other sisters also requested to inquire about the Halal status of The Body Shop cosmetic.
Recently MCG received a request from The Body Shop to change the status of The Body Shop cosmetic from Non Halal to Halal.
MCG did further investigation and asked The Body Shop whey their employee Milan Zivkovic wrote in reference number 63461 that they use gelatin. The company told MCG on August 30, 2013 that she wrote it wrong and she no longer with the company and said their company is supplying some vegetarian products since 2008. They use some non vegetarian ingredients such as beeswax, Honey, Silk and Cholesterol (which could be from milk or animal fat). The customer service is based in Slovenia in Europe.
There is written contradiction of their claim that some of their products are made with gelatin which could be from pork or beef.
So MCG requests our sisters not use The Body Shop Cosmetic products.

Subject: The Body Shop; Ref: 63461
To: A. Ajmal <a.ajm@>
Dear Ms. Ajmal,
Thank you for contacting The Body Shop online team.
The Body Shop® is not a vegetarian or vegan company; however the vast majority of our products contain no animal derived ingredients. We aim to avoid the use of animal-derived ingredients wherever possible and specify non-animal ingredients whenever there is a choice. All our soaps, for example, use a vegetable base rather than the commonly used animal-fat base. Gelatin, beeswax, honey, milk, shellac and lanolin are the only product ingredients knowingly used by The Body Shop® which do not comply with the most current definition of Vegan. Where synthetic forms or derivatives of these materials are available, such as lactic acid, these are always specified for our formulations. We do not use the ingredient "carmine" in our product formulations.
With utmost certainty we can tell you that the Raspberry Born Lippy balm is 100% vegan product.
Should you need further assistance with this matter, please do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you once again for contacting The Body Shop. I hope you find the level of service provided to you via this correspondence satisfactory. If you are not satisfied or need immediate assistance, please feel free to contact our Customer Care Center at: 1-800-263-9746.
Kindest regards,
Milan Zivkovic
Customer Support Representative - The Body Shop Customer Support | Americas
A sist has provided a e-mail to MCG from The Body Shop Company (reference Number 63461) where company claimed to use gelatin either from pork or non zabiha beef, Shellac which might be dissolved in alcohol. The Body Shop products are not recommended to be use by Muslims.
The Green Dot is for non meat or vegetarian product but it does not prohibit alcohol in flavor because many vegetarian drink alcohol. This product is Halal only if no alcohol used in flavor.
You can wear shows made with cow leather.
There are no carmine red color and no alcohol in fragrance then you can use it according to Revlon but this information has to be verified in 2014.
It is OK to use alcohol denatured and Benzyle alcohol containing cosmetic but ethyl alcohol containing cosmetic are Haram. Cetyl Alcohol is:
Hydroxyethylcellulose is a Halal ingredient.

Sent to MCG by a sister on 01-06-14 05:59:59
MCG response:
Ingredients from Beewax, Sheep Wool, from silk are Halal.
Red color from Cochineal or Carmine is Haram because all insects are Haram in Islam excpet locust.
Ingredients from non zabiha beef are not Halal.
All dairy based ingredients are Halal only if they are Halal or kosher certified.
Please avoid all those Nivea products if they are made from above ingredients.
From Alert:
Many Muslims are using non Halal vitamins from stores like Wal-Mart, Walgreen, CVS Pharmacy, GNC. This is because of lack of knowledge about the Halal status of those vitamins. MCG get every day a question from Muslims asking about the Halal status of xyz vitamins. MCG is providing help in picking up the Halal vitamins after it researched at Vitamin Shoppe stores which are located in every city of USA. MCG advises Muslims to check the Halal status of vitamins before consuming them.
Many major brand of vitamins are not Halal such as: Centrum, Equate, Citracal, Nature Made, Vitafusion, One A Day, GNC, Flintstone, Nature Beauty, Walgreen, Geritol, Nature Bounty, Garliq, Estroven, Disney Gummies, Fiber Smart, Caltrale, Finest Nature, One Source, Lill Critteers, Culturelle, Philps, Ultimate Florea, Viactive, Elatins, Os-Cal, Spring Valley, Schiff, Stevia, Optimum Nutrition, Mega Red, Ocuvite, Alive, Centrum Kid, Active Kid, Spring Valley, Bayer, CVS Vitamins and Kirkland Signature. They are not Halal because they are not Halal or Kosher certified or do not have a Halal or Kosher symbol on the package.
Even if they do not contain gelatin, they are still not Halal because they add without restriction any Haram hidden ingredient. Halal or Kosher certification protects Muslims from adding Haram Hidden or Processing Aid Ingredients which are not required to be mention under ingredients statement by FDA. MCG has a list of Halal multivitamins, individual vitamins, prenatal vitamins and fish oil or omega 3 on our website under "Vitamins". Please use this list of Halal vitamins. How to search Halal vitamins on our website: Please write vitamins or prenatal vitamins or fish oil (for Omega fish oil) under the search box then click Food Product by Category then click Show Only Halal then click search. You will get a list of 45 Halal vitamins, 3 Halal prenatal vitamins, 6 Halal fish oil (Omega fish oil) and where to buy them.
I am not a mufti but a food scientist, I know we have porous wholes in our body where any liquid can into eat. I have disccused it in FIqah and Science about bar soap. Please contact a well educated Mufti saheb.
There is lot of discussion among Muslims living in western countries about physical and chemical changes of Haram raw materials during the manufacturing of food products, such as Type A gelatin from pig source, or emulsifiers such as Mono & Diglycerides from pork fat and personal care items such as bar soaps made from pork fat or glycerin. Several Muslims are quoting Fatwa?s (Fatwa is a legal statement in Islam, issued by a Mufti or a religious lawyer, on a specific issue) which were issued 50-60 years back, to justify to consume or use them due to physical and chemical changes occur during their processing.
There is no doubt about the following physical and chemical changes or Tabdeele Mahiya of Haram raw material to Halal products. This includes production of vinegar from alcohol, falling of pig in a salt mine and becoming part of salt mine, bone char, tanning of dead animal skin. These Tabdeele Mahiya cases are acceptable to majority of Islamic scholars.
But few things such as vinegar from wine, pig gelatin, bar soaps made with pork fat are not acceptable according to scientific facts and opinions of several Islamic scholars. Since some of the fatwa?s are issued 50-60 years back, it seems that no assistance from Muslim scientists was used to check it out scientifically.
Requirements for Tabdeele mahiya are (1) complete change from originality to new things which are not present in the original material (2) change in the name (3) Complete conversion of basic components of a raw material to a complete new product containing new components and several others. The common understanding about change in the original status is that it should not contain original components. Some Islamic scholars do not pay attention to this fact and consider that any chemical changes or reactions result in a new composition, which is not true. Let us discuss this in detail:
Bar soaps are made from animal fat or vegetable oils or their fatty acids by reacting them with inorganic water-soluble alkali salt or bases. The source of fat is mutton or beef tallow or pork fat but glycerin is also added besides stearic acid (fat based).
The animal fat or vegetable oil is made of distinctive mixture of several different triglycerides. A triglyceride molecule consists of one molecule of glycerin to which three fatty acid molecules are attached, and these fatty acids are specific to different type of triglycerides. Fatty acids are the basic components of any fat. During manufacturing of bar soaps, fats or oil are heated with liquid alkali, such as sodium hydroxide or caustic soda or potassium hydroxide or caustic potash to yield neat soap, water and glycerin. This process is known as saponification of fat or oil. During this process, the basic components fatty acids are transferred without change in its composition from triglyceride to alkali making neat soap (combination of alkali and fatty acid). Neutralization with alkali is also used to produce neat soap. The neat soap is dried and made into pellets, then glycerin and other ingredients are added, and then mixture is extruded to make bar soaps. If the bar soap is made from pork fat then nothing happens to its basic components fatty acids, it remains as it is, same as in pork fat. So bar soap manufacturing process is not the example of Tabdeele Mahiya. The emulsifiers and mono and diglycerides also fall under this category.
On the other hand in manufacturing of distilled white vinegar, dilute ethyl alcohol is converted to acetic acid, water, and a very minute amount of unconverted dilute ethyl alcohol. Tabdeele Maheyia applies here in the case of dilute ethyl alcohol, which is converted to new material acetic acid and water by acetobacter bacteria. The name is changed from dilute ethyl alcohol to vinegar. Distilled white vinegar is Halal but raw material ethyl alcohol is not Halal.
In the case of wine vinegar, the table wine contains 12.2% ethyl alcohol by volume or 9.9% by weight, 85% water, 4% carbohydrate, 0.1% protein and volatile wine flavoring compounds. In wine, only alcohol is subjected for change by acetobacter bacteria to acetic acid and water. So wine vinegar contains acetic acid, water and rest of the above thing, unconverted small amount of wine and wine flavors which are the result of wine making. Imam Shaafi RA does not consider it as Halal. Presence of unconverted wine, wine flavoring compounds are the scientific basis for its not being consider as Halal.
Liquid raw materials are best suitable for Tabdeele Mahiya compare to solids. So it is very important to use scientific facts in deciding the Tabdeele Mahiya of Haram raw materials for the processing of food products, food ingredients and personal care items.
Dove, Lux bar saop are not Halal.
It is not Halal because they grape they use after fermentation make wine.
I can not answer the German made product because only the German manufacturer knows the source of above ingredients.
If it does not have kosher symbol on the package then it is not Halal.
It is a fat based ingredient and source is only known to the manufacturer so please contact them.
It is a mushbooh ingredient.
You have to contact the manufacturer because they are the only one who know the source of those ingredients except propylparaban which is a Halal ingredient.
Only manufacturer know the source of ingredients and ask any of them made with animal by product.
It is not a Halal product.
It is Haram.
We so much many money to make this website easy for Muslims but they do not research Q &A search or product or brand search which is already their on page:
It is organic compound and has no ethyl alcohol in it. It is obtained in esterified for from many plant sources such as storax or balsum Peru and cinnamon leaves.
It is obtained by hydrolysis with Halal acids. This is the reason it is Halal.
Glycerin could be from pork since it does not have kosher symbol. Organic does not mean Halal. There is no label suitable for vegetarian so I would recommend it unless you find source of glycerin from manufacturer.
Please check our Non Food section.
You have to visit our website www.canadianhalalfoods.com for Canadian Muslims. But all reserach was done in Toronto where most Muslims live. Wonder bread is Halal and I have no information other products available in Edmonton, Canada.
No, I will not advise you to use it because gelatin could be from pork.
Alcohol Denatured is ok but there is a possiblity of using alcohol as a solvent in Parum (Fragrance) so you have to contact the company.
Muslim Consumer Group is on facebook. Thanks for your suggestion.
None of major brand of vitamins even store brand vitamins are not Halal. The vitamins are Halal only if they kosher certified and meet the Halal requirements. It is not say all kosher certified vitamins are Halal. The main concern in on the counter vitamins is the use of gelatin mostly from pork including capsule from pork gelatin. The second concern is the use of Haram hidden ingredients in on the counter viatmins. Kosher certification of Vitamins protect Muslims from hidden Haram ingredients.
Not all kosher certified viatmins are Halal because some use plant or seed extract where alcohol is a extracting solvent, Some contain naturaflavor specially for children kosher vitamins where alcohol is used as a solvent.
It requires thorough research to analyze the kosher certified vitamins to see whether they meet MCG Halal requirements.
None of the Halal certified vitamins were successful due to use of extract containing alcohol, alcoholic fermented ingredients and alcohol containing flavor. The Halal certifying organization do not pay attension to alcohol; so we never recommend any Halal certified viatmins because they did not meet our Halal criteria.
From our Alert section:
I have no information because it is not available in USA.
Please fill out the application form from site or obtained through e-mail or fax.
Please click here for Certification Procedure
If your products pass the Halal requirements then signing the contract including number of inspection per year, record keeping, number of products to be Halal certified and service fees for Halal certification.
Raw material, processing aid ingredients, processing, sanitation chemicals and packaging should meet the Islamic dietary requirements.
MCG will not consider a natural or artificial flavor as Halal if ethyl alcohol is used as a solvent or carrier and if the flavoring ingredients are not from Halal source.

Teenagers who spend a lot of time watching television or using computers have poorer inter-personal relationships, research confirms (Arch Pediatr Adolesc Med 2010; 164: 258-62).
The researchers studied 3043 adolescents aged 14-15, who completed a questionnaire about their screen-time habits and a relationship assessment.
The risk of 'low attachment' to parents increased by 4 per cent for every hour spent watching TV and 5 per cent for every hour spent in front of a computer. In contrast, teens who spent more time reading or doing homework had a better relationship with their parents.
An even more pronounced relationship between TV viewing and interpersonal relationships came from their re-analysis of 976 teens interviewed in 1987 and 1988.
In this group, every additional viewing hour led to a 13 per cent increased risk of low attachment to parents and a 24 per cent greater risk of low attachment to peers.
"Recommendations that children watch less television are sometimes met with the concern that being unable to discuss popular shows or characters may inhibit peer relationships," the authors said.
"The findings herein do not suggest that less television viewing is detrimental to adolescent friendships."

The News Hole
Vacants to Value Web Site Goes Live
A month or so back, Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake announced a new housing initiative called Vacants to Value that's supposed to get 1,500 of the city's abandoned houses renovated and occupied in the next year. As I reported a few weeks ago, that's like an order of magnitude better than her two predecessors did during the real estate bubble.
Key to the new program is a user-friendly, one-stop shop for folks looking for real estate bargains. That web site, which Rawlings-Blake spokesman Ryan O'Doherty said would be "just like if you went to RE/MAX dot com," is up—the Vacants to Value site—but it's mostly still SCOPE listings—aka Selling City-Owned Property Efficiently, the partnership between the nonprofit Baltimore Efficiency and Economy Foundation and the Greater Baltimore Board of Realtors—complete with the SCOPE listing agents. There are a grand total of 43 of them as of now—5 p.m. Dec. 6. Here is a typical one, chosen at random:
Address: 119 S CALHOUN ST, 21223-3118
Block Lot: 0248 028
Price: $5,000.00
Special properties are selected by the City of Baltimore and offered to REALTORS who list them in the statewide Multiple Listing Service. To purchase this SCOPE (Selling City Owned Properties Efficiently) property, please contact the listing agent, Gwendolyn Wynn, at email@example.com. Call today at 410.732.3030
That's Vacants to Value's picture there too—just the outside. Google Street View would do no worse.
The links are somewhat circuitous. The "How to Buy a City Owned Property" link brings you to a rudimentary page that links in turn to the city's Division of Land Resources, from which one returns to Vacants to Value. You can e-mail the five new Marketing and Outreach Agents from the Land Resources page, however. They are:
Charles Smith—Central and South Districts
Julie McCormick—North and Northwest Districts
Keisha Trent—North and Northeast Districts
Stanley Gordon—West and Southwest Districts
Valerie Henson Stewart—East and Southeast Districts
There's also a link to this pdf map detailing which marketing agent handles which neighborhoods.
Meanwhile, some parts of the Vacants to Value site appear dated. "Project Finance" lands on a page listing Summer 2010 Notice of Financing Availability.
Here's hoping this is a work in progress, with better things to come.

Multitrack Mixing Using a Model of Loudness and Partial Loudness
A method for generating a mix of multitrack recordings using an auditory model has been developed. The proposed method is based on the concept that a balanced mix is one in which the loudness of all instruments are equal. A sophisticated psychoacoustic loudness model is used to measure the loudness of each track both in quiet and when mixed with any combination of the remaining tracks. Such measures are used to control the track gains in a time-varying manner. Finally we demonstrate how model predictions of partial loudness can be used to counteract energetic masking for any track, allowing the user to achieve better channel intelligibility in complex music mixtures.

We have offline folders and have never really had a problem with it. How would they save things locally - they would always have to use the same machine, wouldnt they?
Is this possible? I've restricted my C drive from students but I would like a local cache to be available for them to save to. Is this possible? We have a folder redirection policy that makes their home folders "always available offline" but I've heard some reports of errors with this (though I think some may be user error), I would like to be able to open up a folder on their local machine they could possibly save to.
Thanks for any assistance.
We have offline folders and have never really had a problem with it. How would they save things locally - they would always have to use the same machine, wouldnt they?
Offline files should not need to be used on desktops. It's main use is for laptops that go off site.
If there's a need for local files, can you fit a second HDD in the machines? It's what we do for some of the Music PCs.
Sorry for the late replies. We cannot fit a second HDD in these machines, they're netbooks, so not much to them. The computers do go offsite, we have a very large 1:1 initiative, the largest in our state. We have allowed students limited space on the file servers but they're attempting to save their text books to their drives, as these are large PDFs, they're eating into the space. I certainly wish we had baked these files into the image, but since we did not, it's completely not viable to reimage our entire district (with our current deployment of 1:1's that could be 15,000 computers).
I am able to copy these files via group policy but my login time shoots up to nearly 6 minutes, and that's with no traffic on the server while testing, so I'm concerned about doing that. I guess for now, we'll keep digging with what we've got.
May as well just give them all a usb stick.

The three-year program will pay Immelt in part for increasing the share of GE's profit from manufacturing businesses, the company said in a late March Securities and Exchange Commission filing. It replaces an arrangement from 2010 to 2012 that rewarded his success in shrinking the finance unit.
Immelt, who earned $12.1 million under the previous pact, must also boost earnings per share while amassing cash and increasing return on capital to receive the maximum payout, which the company didn't disclose. GE will probably look for more deals like its $4.3 billion purchase of Avio, which bolsters its jet-engine business, Daniel Holland, an analyst with Chicago-based Morningstar Inc., said in a telephone interview.
There's a good opportunity for the company to grow this year on the acquisition front, Holland said. If that's how I'm going to get paid as the leader of the company and my bonus is dependent on growing a certain side of the business, and I have this cash available to me now, I'm going to do everything within my power to make that happen.
Seth Martin, a spokesman for Fairfield, Conn.-based GE, declined to comment on compensation practices for the company, which has operations in Fort Wayne.
Earnings at divisions making products from locomotives to medical scanners will account for about 65 percent of GE's operating earnings by 2015, the final year in which Immelt's performance will be measured under the new plan, the company predicted at a meeting with investors and analysts in December.
At the same time, sales growth at the company's industrial units is projected to slow this year, excluding any benefit from acquisitions. So-called organic revenue growth will fall to as low as 2 percent in 2013, compared with 8 percent last year, executives said in December.
By divesting assets including the Business Property Lending Inc. unit and its Irish mortgage business, GE Capital reduced its ending net investment, a measure of its size, to $419 billion as of Dec. 31.

I hope James does well but the only way he will win the first race is if a people like Stoner,Rossi and Pedrosa take each other out or breakdown.Fogarty should have learned by now to keep his big mouth shut!

Why even print his opinions... The guy has lived in lah lah land for soo long no one even believes a word he says anymore... James will do well when compared to the fact he's racing 5 people who have won titles in GP and others who have been in the sport longer.... Lets be honest. It would take 65% of the field to fall over for James to win a race in his first year on the Yamaha...

You cant know foggy for wanting to keep his profile, a prolific 'voice-of-the-people' he has to stay loud to stay proud.
James will go well in the first year up against hard competition, but as well as Guintoli??? Thats the acid test.

"Carl Fogarty has told MCN he thinks James Toseland can definitely succeed in MotoGP, but only if he gives it all he's got."
i love this quote... two words; "no shit...". slightly pointless. foggy was a legend when he was actually racing... now his opinions count for less and less as things carry on going from bad to worse. the guy should have got himself a job with ducati when he was forced to retire and stay in the lime light better. all we ever hear about now is pointless and obvious observations of other riders, or how every part of his plan to run a team has fallen to pieces... again.
good luck to toseland, but i honestly cant see him being more than a mid-pack runner throughout his motogp career. hes a very good rider, but he hasn't ever really stood out as being "great" like the top 4 or 5 motogp riders. i do hope he can prove me wrong though.

I had a nice chat with one of Monkey's virtual teachers this year (uh, she is not virtual, she's a real person—a real teacher—but she works with the Virtual School, I mean) wherein I said something in passing about how this is our third year of homeschooling, and she uttered the dreaded phrase:
"Oh, I just DON'T KNOW HOW PEOPLE DO IT. I could NEVER homeschool my kids!"
I have an arsenal of standard responses to such statements: that I didn't think I could until I did, that one of my kids is still in public school, that we utilize a lot of resources like Virtual School, and—my personal favorite, as it really gets to the heart of the matter—that I never planned to, but with Monkey's particular set of needs being incompatible with a conventional middle school classroom, I simply didn't have a choice.
But the truth is that a huge part of the reason I hate that phrase is because I probably said it to homeschoolers, myself, a hundred times before we found ourselves homeschooling. The implication is admiration, but the subtext is disbelief that anyone could survive it. (more…)

Jonah was a prophet typical of many believers today who wrap their faith in nationalism and/or patriotism to the point where it supersedes obedience to the will and heart of God.
The Assyrian nation (modern-day Iraq) had harassed and fought against Israel and in 721 BC took the land of the ten tribes of Israel. Jonah was called by God to preach the gospel in the Assyrian capital of Nineveh either before or right after this period of disinheritance. Jonah initially refused to go because of his hatred toward the Assyrians; this would be like a Jewish rabbi being sent to Berlin to preach repentance to Hitler during the Holocaust, or like an American evangelist being sent to preach to Osama bin Laden and al-Qaida in Pakistan, or to the Taliban in Afghanistan.
This lesson from the book of Jonah is also preached by Jesus in the Beatitudes of the gospels when He taught us to "love our enemies" (Matt. 5). This is not just referring to our personal enemies but also our national enemies. It is hard for the human soul to believe that God actually loves our enemies and those people responsible for atrocities committed against humanity. But we have to realize that God is bigger than our prejudice and our pain! (For example, how do you think the families of the victims of the "Son of Sam" shooter David Berkowitz feel when they hear him giving his testimony of his conversion to Christianity?)
All of us care a great deal about our country. The intensity of opinions and feelings during the long political campaign showed the depth of that concern.
Now with the votes counted, it is important to remember that whether we are personally pleased with the outcome or not, God wants us to pray for those chosen to be our leaders—at the national, state, and local levels. The Bible urges us to do so with both respect and thanksgiving (see 1 Peter 2:17; 1 Tim. 2:1–3).
We must also remember that no election will ever solve America's most basic problems. That is because the trouble, at its root, is in the human heart, and the only path to true restoration—for a person or for a nation—is through repentance. The Bible says, "Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out, that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord" (Acts 3:19–20, ESV).
Only the gospel, God's Good News, has the power to change lives, heal hearts, and restore a nation.
This is going to all Popes, Apostles, Prophets, Bishops, Priests, and Pastors and any other leader who has influence over people. God relates with you directly, and does not need you to get between his relationships with others, as He desires to relate with them directly.
You are called to point people to God and not to yourself or any other system or agenda. When you command that they look at you, serve you, get answers from you, you begin to minimize, dilute, and most times get in the way of their ability to hear Gods voice on their own.
You are called to lead as a servant. You are called to humility. You are called to communicate that everything they need is within them for Christ Himself; the hope of glory is within them. The people you serve are not called to serve your agenda, and you are called only to serve Fathers agenda for their lives, which may not have anything to do with your agenda.
God does not need middle management as He has all the management He needs by the power and revelation of His Holy Spirit on earth. Get out of His way, and serve only in His way. All Priest-craft must go, "apostle-craft, prophet-craft, and pastor-craft included," and they all must surrender to the Master-craft of all creation, Jesus our Lord. Ungodly hierarchy has no place in the Kingdom of God. Leaders are called to serve. The greatest of leaders becomes the servant of all.

Birthday Vanilla Cupcakes
Things have been a little crazy around here. Charley, our 10-year old Shepherd mix was supposed to have surgery on his right hip yesterday but he's been having back problems so the surgery is delayed. Tomorrow, he gets an MRI of his back and hopefully we'll know more next week. I have been tense, stressed, doing a lot of crying and getting so worried. But Curtis and everyone else reminds me that I need to remain positive and deal with anything that comes along as it comes. Part of my problem has always been anticipation, the anticipation of anything makes me worry. I can barely watch a suspense thriller on tv or at the movie theater without getting stressed. I know I need to work on all of this.
Today, I took it a little easy that's why this post is going up a little bit late. Today is my birthday! I made cupcakes a few days ago to celebrate. Maybe some will think it's sad that I made my own birthday cake but ahhh, I got over it a long time ago. I did do it a couple of years ago. Someone once told me this way, you get what you want on your birthday! Haha
I worked through many iterations of this vanilla cupcake recipe and finally was happy with it. The base of the recipe is butter and because of the butter and even though I use all-purpose flour instead of cake flour like some recipes recommend, it has a tender crumb. It has a nice buttery vanilla flavor and I love it. I like to use a full 1/4 cup of batter for each cupcake for this recipe but if you like smaller cupcakes, feel free to use a 3 Tablespoon cookie scoop. And I tested different oven temperatures and really like the texture and flavor of the cupcake at 325 degrees and baking it for a little longer than usual. They are the best vanilla cupcake! Anddd, I'm using my favorite cupcake shop's vanilla buttercream for this recipe. It's my favorite vanilla buttercream recipe these days!
Most of the time when baking, I mix all of the dry ingredients together and set aside.
Place all eggs and egg whites into a bowl to make it easier to add each egg one at a time to the cake batter.
Last year, KitchenAid sent me a Pro Line® 7-Quart Stand Mixer and it has a place on my kitchen counter…always. I have limited counter space and this is one of three countertop appliances that don't get stored in the pantry or a closet when not in use. Be sure to check out the giveaway I have going on for one!
Cream the butter and sugar using the paddle attachment. If you don't have a stand mixer, you can use a large mixing bowl and an electric hand mixer but I find it goes much quicker using my stand mixer.
Add eggs one at at time, mix completely between adding each egg. The batter will look slightly curdled.
Add the flour and the rest of the mixed together dry ingredients.
The batter will look like cookie batter right about now.
Add milk. You can use low fat milk but I really think it's better with whole milk.
Mix a little, about 30 seconds. Scrape the bottom of the bowl.
And then mix for another 30 seconds and you'll have a smooth cake batter.
Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup and a spoon and spoon batter into a cupcake liner lined muffin tin.
Bake at 325 degrees F for about 20 to 22 minutes.
Ahhh vanilla cupcakes and vanilla buttercream. <3 <3! And here's another birthday surprise, I'm giving away a KitchenAid stand mixer! Go enter now!
Vanilla Cupcakes with Vanilla Buttercream Recipe
Yield: 24 cupcakes
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes
Vanilla Cupcakes
3 cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
2 large egg whites
4 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2/3 cup whole milk
Vanilla Buttercream
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
2 pounds powdered sugar, sifted
1 Tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup whole milk (maybe a little more)
Vanilla Cupcakes
Heat oven to 325 degrees F. Add cupcake liners to muffin tins. In a medium-sized bowl, mix flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer (or can use a large mixing bowl and an electric hand mixer), add butter and sugar. Cream butter until light and fluffy using the paddle attachment. On slow speed, add eggs, one at a time and until completely mixed. Then, add vanilla extract and vegetable oil and mix.
Add dry ingredients and mix on slow speed until incorporated. Do not overmix. Add milk and mix on slow speed for 30 seconds. Scrape bottom and mix again for 20 to 30 second or until batter is smooth.
Scoop or pour 1/4 cup batter into each cupcake liner. Bake 20 to 22 minutes or until a toothpick in center comes out clean. Remove cupcakes from muffin tin and allow to cool on cooling rack.
Vanilla Buttercream
In the bowl of a stand mixer, add butter and beat with paddle attachment until smooth. Add powdered sugar in two batches and mix until creamed. Add vanilla and mix.
Add milk, gradually, starting with half. Mix and and continue adding milk until smooth. Continue mixing buttercream for 4 to 5 minutes. Store in the refrigerator if not using immediately. Place buttercream on your kitchen counter for at least 15 to 20 minutes before using (if refrigerating).
Freezing Tips
The baked cupcakes freeze really well. Make sure they are completely cooled and place in a freezer-safe zippered plastic bag (do not stack them) and freeze them until you're ready to eat. Defrost in your refrigerator overnight and then leave them on your counter (still sealed) until they are room temperature. Decorate with frosting and serve.

I am so impressed with your detective work, i.e. how many eggs, eggs/whites/yolks, size of cupcake, oven temp, cake/AP flour, butter/oil, milk/cream….I have gone through this with yellow and red velvet cupcakes, never vanilla. I'll just use your recipe It's so much work to get to that happy place but these look amazing! Pinned!
And HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!
Happy Birthday Julie. Those cupcakes look so good. I have to make dessert for a pot luck lunch this month, thinking I might try those. I want to learn how to do the frosting to look like that. Any hints?
I make my own birthday cake too. Generally it tends to be Dorie Greenspan's Almost Fudge Gateau. Decadence.
I hope your poor dog is better soon. It's really hard on us when they are ill. We have three 15 year old pets (one dog, two cats). Two of the three had serious health issues this year. It's so stressful, and I sure understand the crying and worrying. I hope Charley will be fine soon.
Yesterday was my sister's birthday and my daughter's birthday! Great day for a birthday cupcake. I'm going to make these this afternoon. I've tried many vanilla cupcake recipes and have not found one I LOVE. I think this may be the one. I hope your dog does well with the surgery. It is very stressful…I know. We've gone through it a number of times with our dogs. Trust your vet and keep good thoughts.
Happy Birthday Julie. The cupcakes look yummy.
So sorry to hear about your dog, but hopefully everything will be okay. The waiting part is hard not knowing what to expect. Try to remain positive as I'm sure Charley can pick up when you're upset. Sending positive thoughts and virtual hugs to you all. Also keeping ya'll in my thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery for Charley.
BTW, just wanted to say I have tried your Whole Chicken in a Slow Cooker recipe and have been thrilled by the outcome. I would have never put a chicken in a slow cooker without water without your recipe. It makes the chicken so tender. Thanks so much.
I have the same problem with worrying. If I got paid to worry…well….
I am working on that too…and it is getting better the older I get.
I hope all will be OK with your sweet dog. I bake my own birthday cakes too and LOVE doing it. I know I will get a quality product and just what I want. That said, your cupcakes are adorable and festive and the recipe looks delicious. I know it was hard for you to feel celebratory for your birthday, but you should celebrate you!
Pingback: Chicken Tortilla Soup with Black Beans and Zucchini | the little kitchen
hello! I really would like to make this recipe for my daughters bday tomorrow but she wants a cake instead of cupcakes…is it possible to convert this recipe to cake instead?? If so do i adjust the temp or the time?? TIA!!!
Hi Rebecca,
I would bake at 350 degrees F and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes but I have not tried this with this recipe so please know I can't guarantee it will turn out the way you would like it. I would set the timer and check for doneness. Hope that helps! Happy birthday to your daughter!
Hello Julie,
I am making your wonderful vanilla cupcakes for my dear dear friend. Question: Can I sue almond milk? Thank you!
Hi Monique,
I wrote you back via email earlier but I wanted to make sure I answered here. I have not tried almond milk so I can't promise it will turn out the same. I hope it turns out great if you try it!

Human sexuality manifests itself in many different ways, and sexually active partners decide what activities they get the most pleasure from. For many couples, however, sex has other purposes; in addition to pleasure, it provides a natural means for conceiving progeny who will carry on for the family once the parents are no longer around.

Javier Hernandez says it has been an honour to play under Ryan Giggs at Manchester United.
Giggs has moved from respected senior team-mate to interim manager and was paid a marvellous tribute by some of the greatest names in football when collecting his Lifetime Achievement Award at the club's annual ceremony at Old Trafford.
"It's unbelievable," Hernandez told MUTV, referencing praise from the like of Pele, Platini, Cantona, Del Piero and many others. "There are no words to describe him. Like all the personalities in the video said, very important people for the game, they spoke really well about him. What he has done [in the game] is unbelievable.
"To be at a club for 26 years, to be at a very high level for all those years is incredible. He's helped a lot of young people, just as other people helped him. It's been a privilege to be with him.
"I expressed myself when Sir Alex was here - I was a player for Sir Alex Ferguson. I'm going to be one of the players for Giggsy. You never know if he's going to stay next year or if we will bring in another manager but, if Giggsy stays or not, it's been unbelievable to play for him. There are not enough words to describe it."

BAY CITY, Mich. Two men have been sentenced to 15 to 30 years in prison in the shooting death of a Bay City man.
MLive.com reports that 22-year-old Kaleb Rosin and 23-year-old Brett Vaughn appeared Monday before Bay County Circuit Court Judge Harry Gill.
Rosin and Vaughn entered no-contest pleas in August to second-degree murder charges. Stephen Ashley Jr. was sentenced in March to life in prison for Lonnie Houston Jr.'s 2011 slaying.
MLive.com reports that evidence shows Ashley was concerned about money he owed Houston for cocaine.
Vaughn and Rosin testified at Ashley's trial that they were not present when Ashley shot Houston in a car in Hampton Township. The car and Houston's body were moved to the banks of the Saginaw River where Ashley set the vehicle on fire.

DMX - I Don't Dance
Artist: DMX
Featuring: MGK (Machine Gun Kelly)
Producer: J.R. Rotem
Album: Undisputed
Avg Rating: 3.3 ( 30 votes )
As a kid you probably wanted to be an astronaut – how'd that work out for you? In the real world our dreams often never come to fruition, but occasionally dreams do come true. Today we have a hip-hop dream come true in the form of I Don't Dance by DMX, whose fans have been long-awaiting a true comeback from the Yonkers native. Count Bad Boy rising star Machine Gun Kelly as one of the many, a long time die hard fan of Earl Simmons, who recently announced he would be making an appearance on his idol's new single. Produced by veteran J.R. Rotem, I Don't Dance is a synth-heavy, up-tempo single which finds DMX discussing the vast differences between him and today's mainstream rappers, reminding us of his Rap heavyweight status back in the late 90's. At this time, I Don't Dance is tentatively slated for inclusion on X's long-waited comeback album, Undisputed. So will this be the record that begins DMX's comeback or simply another failed attempt? Only time will tell, but if you're in the NYC area be sure to check out DMX headlining tonight at SOBs.

Phantom vs. New dual blade when they come back
MapleStory Forums : General MapleStory : General MS questions and answers
May 27 12
Which would be stronger phantom or dual blade?
Is it Phantom b/c of their steal skill or the dual blade b/c of their avoid is increased so they don't get damaged a lot and their damage has been increased [not by a lot]?
New thread Replies

You need a lot of funding for a db to be good even after their revamp

RockGodOne Dont you think thats a lot of funding? Thats like 4bil
May 27 12
With the same amount of funding, definitely DBs after the revamp. You forgot to factor in how much canes and cards will cost, which means you get less money to spend on %LUK equips. However, daggers 250ATK + and kataras 200ATK + are sooo abundant that it's not hard to find or too expensive to buy.
May 27 12
how much %Luk do you need to be average or above average?

games500: how much %Luk do you need to be average or above average?
Depends on what you want to hit right. %50 - 75% luk isn't too hard to get - 9%-15% on each piece of equip.

is empress set be better or top and bottom?

games500: is empress set be better or top and bottom?
Whole 6 piece empress set would be better in the LONG RUN - because it gives the %boss damage and w.atk
May 27 12
since when is doubling your main 1v1 damage "not a lot"?
It all depends on the funding of the character, not the class you play.

^^^ the damage wasn't increased by a lot

Hudson Valley restaurant suggestions?
Hi, my wife and I will be taking a day trip from Manhattan this Saturday visiting the Millbrook and Rivendell Wineries (I think these are rated high in the area?).
If anyone has suggestions on breakfast/brunch suggestions near Millbrook vineyards, since we'll be visiting there first or on the way North that would be great!
Also, if anyone has recommendations for romantic waterside dining for dinner it would be greatly appreciated. I have a few in mind, but not sure how good they are....just based on what i could find online....
Newburgh - Torches on the Hudson, Blue Martini, Cena 2000
Valley at the Garisson
Harvest on the Hudson
I'm not too familiar with the area, since this is is our first time travelling north.
Thanks in advance!
I've never been to Millbrook, but on the map it looks like it's farther north than New Paltz where the Rivendell winery is and on the other side of Hudson river. There is a whole network of wineries around New Paltz, why not make that side of the river your day trip and save Millbrook for later? Here is the site for the wineries and a map: http://www.shawangunkwinetrail.com/
New Paltz (or neighboring communities) is a great place to start your day with breakfast/brunch - there are a lot of recs on this board, just search for New Paltz here.
Also, if you want to finish day with romantic dinner in a spectacular setting, try Mohonk mountain house (haven't eaten there but the scenery is breath-taking). here is their site mohonk.com
Harvest on Hudson is in Hastings and nowhere near the area you are tallking about, in saying that I'm not exactly sure what is near Millbrook, is that in Dutchess County? Valley at Garrison is in Putnam County (definitely call first because they seem to open on a limited basis), the ones in Newburg are in Orange County but it's a nice area to visit down by the waterfront. OK I just looked it up and Millbrook is in Dutchess County, north of Poughkeepsie and none of those restaurants are particularly close to that area. But someone mentioned Aroma Osteria in Wappinger Falls on a thread I started http://www.chowhound.com/topics/421306 and actually I have been to this restaurant and it is very good and right on Rt. 9 south of Poughkeepsie.
Thanks so much for the suggestions so far! We were planning to drive to Millbrook first, then drive over to Woodstock, have some lunch walk around. Then travel back south to New Paltz and visit Rivendell wineries. Then continue south and have some dinner either at the waterfront restaurants in Newburgh, Valley at Garrison or Harvest on the Hudson and then make our way back to Manhattan.
Welle, I think I might take up your suggestion and stay around New Paltz and visit a few wineries there, instead of travelling to the other side of the river to Millbrook. Again, I'm not too familiar with the area, any other wineries you suggest nearby Rivendell?
Thanks again!!
re: gchhada
I've only been to Rivendell (they seem to be the largest in that area), but I'm sure others are nice too. There are tons of farms, farmstands in the area and with apples and peaches in season - I'm sure you'll have a full day on your hands. The area has beautiful, but very accessible hiking in Minnewaska park and Mohonk lake preserve. Trust me you will have a full day. I would save Woodstock for a later full day trip as well - you can drive to nearby communities in Catskills, do some hiking, nature-walking, visit the original Woodstock site (it's not in Woodstock), and then get to Woodstock downtown in the afternoon for shop/gallery walking and people-watching. To stay on topic, Joshua Cafe seem to be widely popular on these boards and on weekends very hard to get a table.
I'm not familiar very much with the area you're talking about. But I have been to Torches on the Hudson (in Newburgh). As a nyc-er, I thought the food was barely so-so. But the views were lovely. We strolled outside for a while after our lunch and thoroughly enjoyed that part (the food notwithstanding). If others recommend something better, take their suggestions.
re: gchhada
a little late...
first - millbrook winery - i didn't care for it much (prefer dessert or sweeter wines), and a friend of mine who is the opposite of me (rioja, reds, and others like that) didn't either...thought the wines were too dry and some other stuff. great views, no desire to go back. but if you DO go there, go to clinton vineyards which is right near there and has great dessert wines.
however...if you go to the other side of the river...rivendell is a nice winery, i'd suggest going to baldwin in pine bush. they have dessert wines, the strawberry one has won awards and their new apple one is packed with apple flavors. it's NOT high end wines, but i like 'em. and they're having little chocolate/dessert samplings with the wines...it's $10, or free if you buy 6 bottles i think. (bottles are about 12 each). they have a website...
if you're planning as stated, i would offer up this suggestion...
go to new world home cooking for lunch in woodstock, walk around the town, take the back roads down to new paltz, check out rivendell, baldwin and one of the other vineyards in that area (new paltz or pine bush). before going to baldwin, go to village market and bakery (in gardiner, http://www.villagemarketandbakery.com/) and get one of the cream cheesecakes to bring home (bring a small cooler, too?) - original stuff which i don't think anyone in nyc is making. pop out on route 84, cross the river, and go to beacon to tonique (right off 84, maybe 1/2 mile off, i think first exit once you cross the hudson). walk down to beacon creamery and grab some jane's ice cream for dessert, wander to the train station for a view of the hudson. then, take 84 over to whichever way you want to go back to the city.
hope that helps...just my views...
re: gchhada
Gchhada, would love to hear your trip report! thanks.
There's a pretty good Mexican restaurant on Rte 44 or 55 (I mix these route numbers up) near where it crosses Rte 82 by Millbrook, called El Puerto Azul (The Blue Door). Though it's in a shopping plaza, it's quite a nice place inside, a bit pricey for Mexican. They have an excellent plaintain appetizer and very fine flan.
There are some good restaurants in Rhinebeck, esp Agra Tandoori (Indian) just south of town (best to have dinner on non-buffet nights) and Aroi, a new Thai place (get pad thai, masaram curry, and thai iced tea). Terrapin is good too, expensive on one side but better on the other, and outside.
I do not like New World cooking in Woodstock (though it's some time since I've been there).
Am I too late? Monteverde restaurant on bear mountain. a must try...AND must see
re: heidemarie
Just to clarify. I checked out the website because this restaurant has been mentioned a few times recently. The restaurant is on Bear Mountain Bridge Road, on the east side of the Hudson, not on Bear Mountain, which is on the west side.
re: Leslie
Apparently there is new management and a new chef at Monteverde. I don't know if anyone has reported on them but so far as I am concerned it cannot be anything but good news.
On the other hand, for a pretty much guaranteed great view (from the bar or patio) and great food, go a few miles north on Route 9 and eat at Valley in Garrison (mentioned in the first post).
I love the Rivendell Winery. The aforementioned Baldwin in Pine Bush does have excellent fruit wines as well.
My husband and I spent our honeymoon in New Paltz. We did not eat at a single bad restaurant there. However, we have been married 6 years, so I don't know if the ones we ate at are still around (Bacchus, The Loft, The Gilded Otter Brewpub, and a red sauce Italian place whose name I can't remember were among some of the ones we tried). We had dinner at the CIA one night. It was a 30-minute trip, but worth it. We went to the Italian restaurant, Caterina DeMedici. Alhtough I didn't eat there, the owner of the B&B where I stayed recommended the DePuy Canal House.
re: Avalondaughter
i believe bacchus and gilded otter are still there; italian place, locust tree? though i think those owners went back to italy. markp is the local newpaltz guru...
my wife and i have reservations at depuy this sunday, we got a sitter and all. i'll be posting about it at some point this week...
re: bob gaj
Beso is the place to go in New Paltz. Its upscale with an inventive chef who prepares very filling and delicious meals. i had a charbroiled rib steak in a balsalmic reduction sauce with a small equisite mac and cheese cassorole and sauteed brussels sprouts. They have a good wine list. ZD chardonnay for example. Bacchus is just horrid, a hangout place for the college crowd. The food was almost not edible.
re: pof
mmmm, Beso. Everything is so-oo-oo good. (It's where The Loft used to be, basically one door down from the stoplight in downtown New Paltz) Went there for snackydoodles on Friday night in the cozy little bar in back. We split a porcini crusted filet mignon, the sauce was wonderful with all these little plump yummy shroomies. But everything on the menu is amazing. I usually get the calamari appetizer, seared scallops or a steak, and get one of Tammy's decadent, swoon-worthy desserts to go.
On Friday my friend had an apple drink special, it was amazing with local apple vodka (Heart of the Valley from Gardner Tuthilltown Gristmill), a cute apple slice garnish, and some spicy nutmeg & cinnamon in there too.

Bacchus is great for hanging out, playing pool or ping pong and ordering a beer, they have a good variety on tap and a million billion bottled beers from all over. If I'm hungry I'll order off the appetizer menu: the nasty nachos (with chicken, black beans) are fine, I also like their smoked salmon quesadilla, sweet potato fries, jalapeno poppers, that kind of thing. Pub grub.

Back in February we revealed that the Cedar Taverns owner, who closed the bar to build condos atop it, sold the actual mahogany bar to some Texans. Last November, only one of the condos seven units had sold, and now Curbed notices an interesting bit of info on Property Shark. They write: Flushing Savings Bank would like its $7.5 million back, please, or else foreclosure could be in the building's future. Somewhere, someones looking for a beer to cry into. Sadly, it cant be found at the Cedar anymore.
