Strawberry Chocolate Chip Cookies.
Easy, quick, and fool proof strawberry cookies loaded with chocolate chips.
Oops I did it again. One more cake mix cookie for you. Devil's Food? check! Vanilla? check! Now it's time for pink to take over. A whole lotta pink.
I know many of you aren't fond of using boxed mixes in recipes. I'm on the fence about it. I love it for its convenience and the cake batter taste it gives desserts, but nothing can truly beat a brownie made from scratch. I've made some fantastic cake batter flavored treats without using cake mix at all, too. It IS possible. Hello, Cake Batter Sugar Cookies and Cupcake Puppy Chow (both = no cake mix!).
Regardless, I haven't been able to pin down a fantastic strawberry-dough based cookie recipe without using it, so I picked up a box of Duncan Hines strawberry cake mix the other day and things got even more pink around these parts. I know you'll love these.
The real reason I made these? Valentine's Day is coming up! Not that I needed an excuse for a pink cookie, but it conveniently fits the part.
I took my Confetti Cake Batter Cookie recipe, subbed strawberry cake mix for vanilla and chocolate chips for the sprinkles. It's truly the easiest cookie recipe you'll ever find, especially for how soft, puffy, thick, and perfect they come out.
You'll literally ask yourself HOW on earth a cookie this good can start from a box. Well, it does.
The dough combines 6 simple ingredients: strawberry cake mix, eggs, oil, baking powder, vanilla, and chocolate chips. Everything may come together by hand. The dough is quite dense and thick, so you'll definitely need a bit of elbow grease to mix everything together. It's also very oily. But do NOT worry, the cookies will still bake up thick and puffy. With strawberry chocolate chips cookies as the finished product, you definitely didn't hear me complaining about using my arm muscles to get there.
** Note: if you'd like to sift your dry cake mix to get out all of the lumps before combining with the rest of the ingredients, be my guest. But everthing came together nicely for me without taking that extra step. **
There is also no dough-chilling required. I chill my dough for nearly every single cookie I bake – the most recent exception is my recipe for Homemade Oatmeal Creme Pies – no need to wait around for the dough to get cold and moldable. The same goes for today's cookies. Bypass all of that and stick these cake mix cookies right into the oven.
Only 20 minutes start to finish!
I rolled the dough balls a bit larger than my previous cake mix cookies, about 2 Tablespoons of dough go into each dough ball. Feel free to make these any size you want – adjust the baking time accordingly and watch that they do not brown. A few of mine got a bit brown on top because I left them in 1 extra minute by mistake. That's what I get for trying to vacuum as I bake. Cleaning < baking.
Be sure to roll your balls of dough to be "taller" rather than wide. I talked about the "tall" trick here. If thick cookies are your goal, make sure you don't miss that!
{sidenote: do you know how hard it is to shoot pink cookies without them looking like the pink goo from Ghostbusters? This was quite a challenging photo shoot!}
Ok, back to these glorious gems. Texture wise, these cookies and very soft and light. They retain that soft-baked consistency that I know you love (and so do I!). While they come from cake mix, they are not cakey in the slightest. They are soft in the center, but very chewy around the edges. Moist, melting in your mouth – no dry crumbs in sight. And I LOVE how puffy and thick they turned out. You have the baking powder to thank for all that lift.
What about their taste? The strawberry taste isn't overpowering at all. In fact, I don't even like strawberry cake but when baked into pink cookie form? I'm all about it. My friend Erin told me they taste like vanilla strawberry shortcake! Kevin couldn't stop eating them, despite their fabulous girly color.
And all those chocolate chips? I was actually going to add Valentine's Day sprinkles to these cookies, but the combination of chocolate and strawberries is just one of my favorites. And with a bag of Nestle Morsels staring me in the face, I knew semi-sweet chocolate chips were the strawberry dough's destiny. You could even go for white chocolate instead!
Cookies are pretty in pink.
Strawberry Chocolate Chip Cookies
Mixed with a little oil, chocolate chips, eggs, baking powder and vanilla, strawberry cake mix is the base of what may be the prettiest and softest cookie you'll ever bake. And they're pink, too!
Yield: 2 dozen cookies
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 15-20 minutes
- 1 box (18.25 oz) strawberry cake mix, like Duncan Hines
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup vegetable/canola oil
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 and 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350F. Line large baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. Set aside.
In a large bowl, mix together the cake mix and baking powder. Set aside. In a smaller bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, and vanilla by hand. Add the egg mixture to the cake mixture and stir to form a dough- stir vigorously until all of the pockets of dry cake mix are gone. Gently mix in the chocolate chips.
Drop rounded balls of dough, about 2 Tablespoons each, onto prepared baking sheet. Stick a few more chocolate chips on top of the cookie dough balls if you want them for looks, if desired. Make sure the balls of dough are taller than they are wide. See here for more details.
Bake for 10 minutes – do not let the cookies get brown. Allow to cool on baking sheet for 3 minutes; they will be very soft at first. As they cool, the tops may settle down; press them down gently with your fingers if they are not sinking much. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to one week.

If you're not a fan of using cake mix, you may enjoy my Cake Batter Sugar Cookies instead. Use 1 drop of red food dye to make them pink and add strawberry extract (if you can find some) instead of the butter extract called for:
Or even my Cupcake Puppy Chow (no cake mix!)
If you love strawberry and chocolate together, you must try my Chocolate Covered Strawberry Muffins!
Or my Strawberry Swirl Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Bars

Honestly, I dont even know how I got to your site… I was Googling Chocolate Dipped Oreos to see how many different ways you can decorate them then Strawberry Chocolate Chip Cookies popped up in the results! I am SOOO glad I did not ignore it. I am making these tonight and bringing them to my family reunion tomorrow to test out on everybody! Who doesnt love Strawberries and Chocolate? Like Seriously. This may be the most awesomeness cookie recipe ever! Thanks! xoxo
Made these on Friday evening and took them to my family reunion, they devoured them! I wish I had made more… I made a special batch for my mom, dipping a few halfway in melted dark chocolate. She was upset because someone found her stash and finished them for her! lol… Only thing I was disappointed about was the color when I took my pictures. No matter how many adjustments I made to my camera, it still would not show the pretty pink color of the cookie; they all looked like regular delicious chocolate chip cookies. Oh well… at least the taste was there! Thanks for a great recipe…
OMG! I just made these, and I think I have a new favorite cookie! The only thing I did differently was use mini chocolate chips because that is what I had on hand. I'm thinking about using them to make ice cream sandwiches with coconut fudge ice cream. Thank you so much for the recipe! Yummy!!
I just made a double batch of these with white chocolate chips and they are delish! I was skeptical that they would actually bake up that pretty, but they did indeed. I'm packaging them in cellophane bags tied with pink ribbon for a breast cancer fundraiser luncheon. I'm certain they will be a hit! Thanks for the awesome recipe!
Hi Sally I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for this recipe. I have been having a difficult time deciding on what to make for my fiance and I's wedding favors. One day I stumbled upon your blog by complete accident when searching "pink chocolate chips cookies," in Google and I am so happy I did. My future mom in law and I made these and they were to die for!!!! We made one batch with dark chocolate chips and another with white. These will be awesome and match our color scheme for the wedding perfectly and will sure be memorable! Thanks again =D
These cookies are SO amazing!!! Quick, easy, inexpensive and, of course, delicious!!!!
I made a batch with the semi-sweet chocolate chips and they were sooo yummy. Then I tried a batch with white chocolate chips and I thought they were even better, which I didn't think could be possible!! I've had multiple people tell me this is the best cookie they've ever eaten! Doesn't get much better than that!
This is my first time making cake mix cookies! I'm so excited because they are so easy to make. Who knew cake mix could be used for cookies! The only problem I have is that I'm making red velvet cake mix cookies and many recipes call for 1/2 cup of oil and I noticed you use 1/3 cup instead. I used only 1/4 cup from a recipe I saw on the box of a yellow cake mix. Which is right??? I'm confused! I have to make these cookies for a cookie exchange and I want to make sure they taste good! I have the dough made and was refrigerated overnight, however should I add more oil to the dough? Thanks for your help!
Hi Sally
I finally found all the necessary ingredients – tough task here in Hong Kong. I was wondering what you would think of subbing in cream cheese for the oil. More specifically strawberry flavoured cream cheese! Anyone else who has tried cream cheese instead of butter/oil, let me know your thoughts or results. Thanks.
Well…i made these cookies last night. They came out perfect! The look, the smell, but then there was one slight issue which ended up being the most important issue: the taste. I was so excited when I read this recipe online that I went to the store and bought the ingredients right after I got off of work. I don't bake often, especially at 12:00 at night, but I just Had to try these. I followed the recipe exactly and I just don't know what went wrong…everyone who's tried them has said they're good, but not fabulous. One person stated that they taste like a better version of Pepto while another stated that they taste like cough syrup. I'm not sure what happened or where I went wrong since I mixed and baked exactly like the recipe said, but for me, these were disappointing…I have three other recipes of yours that I'm going to try and hopefully they'll taste better…
Sally, I made these for ME this evening as I craved something sweet, and (forgive me) girlie. Used white chips. Most are gone now, my boys "discovered" them and it's all over now. They are not only beautiful but soooo good. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe! So now the boys are going to make their own…THATS how easy it was!
Hi Sally,
Thank you for sharing this great recipe. I just finished baking them for a church fund raiser. So fast & easy to prepare. They turned out perfect. Of course I had to try them! Love all the chocolate w/the strawberry flavor. As you said they make a great Valentine cookie. I'll be trying some of your other recipes. Happy Valentine's Day to you …..
I just made a batch of these. I LOVE them, so does my husband. I used mostly semi-sweet chips with some white chocolate chips mixed in. I'll make another batch to share on Valentine's Day. I'm picky about cookies & desserts. I make most things from scratch, but there is no need when these are so good. I can't wait to try other mixes & variations and bring them to parties. Thanks for sharing this delicious pink cookie!
I was so excited to try these. My grandmother always made cake mix cookies, but when she passed, the secret to tall, fluffy cake mix cookies passed. The only trick I remember is she folded in cool whip, rather than oil. (What can I say, she was a woman of the 50's!)
I made the mistake of getting a Betty Crocker mix which is only 15.75oz. I was worried it would foul the recipe, but it turned out fine! I live at ~8000 ft so I added 2 Tbs flour to the dry mix for altitude. I also had to make smaller cookies to avoid browning- I dropped dough in a generous 1Tbs sized balls ( nice and tall!) and baked for 9 minutes. They were perfect!
I do think the color is a little lighter in this mix than the Duncan Hines. I suppose that could be remedied by adding a drop or two of red food dye to the egg mixture prior to mixing. They are still beautiful and delicious! Thank you for sharing. I can now experiment with other cake mixes and bring back grandma's tradition!
I am eating Reese's peanut butter cup cake mix cookies right now and that's what lead me to search for a strawberry version. Sounds great! I should have known to check your blog. I will be making your banana cupcakes with chocolate and peanut butter swirl frosting tomorrow and then these pink beauties on Sunday! I'm sure both will turn out great and everyone will love them at both gatherings! Thanks for great recipes and keep up the amazing work!
Stumbled onto your website while looking for a cake mix remix. Love to do things from scratch but sometimes a busy girl has to use a few tricks right?! These were TDF! Making them for a co-worker going through a divorce b/c sometimes a cookie is just what the doctor orders for a broken heart.
Just loved the hint of berry flavor, and I used special dark choc chips, which I felt gave them a little bit of extra richness…so yummy!!
I'm going to make it my mission to try one of your recipes every week! Thx for doing what you do so that us fellow baking addicts always have some inspiration!
Planning on making these tomorrow for mother's day but I had to supstitute the Duncan Hines with a different strawberry cakemix as it isn't available around here, hope it works just as well! Just in case I'm picking up some red food colouring this afternoon… fingers crossed!
Bought a big glass fruitpot with transparant pink bows to store them in, if it all works out it will look so pretty and cute!
Quick question for you. Here in Canada I am not finding a strawberry cake mix, but Duncan Hines does have this:
Could it be used in place of cake mix or would it require modifications/additions?
Have made this recipe 5 times in the last week, my family can't get enough. My husband loves the version I made with Butter Pecan Cake Mix and chopped up pecans in it, and my son loves the new Blue Velvet Cake Mix with mini m&m's in it. I love the devil's food cake mix with cut up Milky Way bars in it. Thank you so much for the great recipe.
Can i make them with normal cake mix and add in strawberry extract and red food colouring later? I can't find strawberry cake mix anywhere…
I really want to make theese they look fun to make with mom and dad ^^
Found this way too late ㅠㅠ wish I found this earlier(same for my recent passion for baking)
My roommate and I baked a ridiculous amount of these in our college dorm's community kitchen, and many students were stopped by the scent of them baking and stopped by to try them! Even a group of guys who were totally fine with eating obnoxiously pink cookies.
And they really were super easy and didn't require us schlepping too many ingredients to the kitchen. Thanks for the recipe!
I made these twice – one batch as a trial run and the other as the official. Couple things I found:
1. The oil in this recipe makes an incredibly oily dough – it's more of a cake batter mix, which makes sense, because it's using cake mix as the main source of dry ingredients. I replaced the oil with 1/3 cup of creamed butter, and the dough consistency came out MUCH better.
2. The pink isn't super pink, like it's shown in the photograph, but I assumed these were professionally shot. The color is still noticeable though, and they looked great.
Taste was great! Ten minutes in the oven at 350 was perfect.
I made these tonight for a Christmas concert I thought that you can't go wrong with Chocolate and Strawberries. The only Strawberry Duncan Hines mix was Strawberry Cheesecake so I purchased Pillsbury not realizing there was a difference in size. They came out great bit definetly lighter in color. Wish I had read all these comments first I would have gotten the Strawberry cheesecake mix. Looking forward to all the delighted concert ghosts add they taste these tomorrow night!
I made these last night for a Cookies and Cocoa event at work today. The students loved the cookie. I tried one myself and I love how soft and sweet they are! This cookie is so unique and not something you see everyday at a bakery or grocery store. I will definitely be baking these again. They were so quick and simple to make. The batter was a bit oily, but it was a nice change from sticky cookie dough! Thanks Sally!

MIAMI, Jan. 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The fifth annual Miami Rum Renaissance Festival -- the largest gathering of rum experts, professionals and enthusiasts in the world -- will span Monday, April 15 to Sunday, April 21, 2013 at the Doubletree by Hilton Miami Airport Convention Center.

This may sound like a rant. In a sense it is – but one done as a serious warning.
A job ad appeared in my inbox a couple days ago. It matches one of my Google Alerts, so I glanced through. Cloud services provider in Southern California, okay. Looking for a Web Content Writer. I'm not looking for full-time, but I might know someone…
Then I saw this.
"Fresh graduates encouraged to apply."
*Insert record-scratch sound here!*
No pay listed. But considering that line, I think it's a low-salary gig.
Worse still – looks like they don't value web content very much.
Going Cheap on Content Means You Don't See Content's Value
Wanting a fresh college grad to write content might make business sense, in terms of ROI and budget. But if you're looking at content as an expense, your values are messed up.
Putting one college grad in charge of content creation just to save money? It means web content is "low man on the totem pole" at your office.
Let me say it another way.
You've placed the lowest priority on the most powerful marketing tool available.
(Please note – I'm NOT saying this to belittle college grads. We would not have Google or Twitter without them! I just don't think they should be the ones writing content, if that content is not valued by their employer.)
Low Value on Content, Low Respect for Readers
There's danger in devaluing web content.
More content is created now than ever before. Much of it is so poorly-written that it's lost in the swamps of Low Traffic Land.
Why? Because the writers (and their work) were not valued by the organization.
The attitude isn't new; Brain Traffic addressed it in 2009. It's pervasive though. And it doesn't stop there.
Not valuing content suggests one scary thing: You don't value your audience either.
Giving content creation to someone fresh out of academia? Who's had little (if any) real-world experience with marketing and user research?
Readers will think your company doesn't know what they're doing!
Don't Dump the Foundation of Marketing (Content) on "The New Guy" & Forget About It
Content creation is not rocket science, I admit. But it isn't easy either.
If you're just throwing words on a webpage, you're missing out on a huge chunk of persuasive power.
Content's real power comes from:
- Understanding your reader (user research)
- Employing content strategy to convert readers, capture leads, develop them into sales, and build a regular client base
- Taking into account everything from audience interest points to SEO to future content
All of this is part of content creation. But you won't reap these benefits if you don't value it.
Throwing one inexperienced person at web content? You devalue the content, and risk insulting your audience. The people who keep you in business.
Have you encountered this before? Businesses that treat content like a low-value commodity?
Was your impression of their business affected as a result?

For nearly a year now it seemed like no matter what comic site I frequented, I heard nothing but how great Michel Fiffe's COPRA is. It has been reviewed several times over and its basic premise was enough to make me instantly interested. Fiffe set out to flesh out his love for the classic Ostrander/Yale/McDonnell Suicide Squad. He did so by creating his own team with basic analogues of the classic team: Amanda Waller, Duchess, Deadshot, Bronze Tiger, Vixen and even Shade the Changing Man. But he goes beyond that with homages. One of the leads is a teenage boy that clearly looks like Michael Fleischer and Vince Giarrano's Haywire. In an early issue they go see a man with an uncanny resemblance to Doctor Strange.
In other words, it's all great fun inspired by a comic I really, really liked already.
It took me awhile to take the plunge on this book. I don't buy that many print comics today. Fiffe told me on Twitter months ago that a digital edition was not in the works in any way. So when he started to produce COPRA Compendium collections of the issues with Bergen Street Productions, I was finally convinced to take the plunge.
And I couldn't be more pleased. Each book is 72 packed pages of glorious full color art and compelling layouts. The story expands from the beginning of the first issue in the first book to its conclusion in the sixth issue that closes book two. And in the middle, the story goes from a simple "team on the run" story to a compelling tale of a dozen men and women, most of them just looking for a place in a very strange world. It reminds me a lot of Casey and Scioli's Gødland, albeit slightly more grounded. Considering Gødland is one of my favorite comics of the last decade that is far from faint praise.
More impressively, Michel Fiffe literally does everything in this book. He pencils, inks, colors and letters the entire thing. He hasn't covered his process in high detail, but it appears all that work is impressively done by hand. Only Erik Larsen has ever tried to do anything close and his lettering was not strong. Fiffe proves to be an impressive talent just by his range of skills on display here.
Single issues of COPRA go for five bucks plus shipping and the two Compendium editions go for 12 each, so these are not cheap comics. I dropped thirty dollars with shipping for these two copies, but I will say with little doubt that I will keep buying Fiffe's work after this. He's the kind of guy that is worth supporting in his endeavors.
Anyone that wants to try these books can order them here.

Kashmiri girls face mental trauma: Psychologists
Heavy military presence triggers anxiety among women: Dabla
Srinagar, June 21: Following the rape and brutal murder of two women in Shopian, psychologists fear that the Kashmiri girls may undergo psychological disorders and prefer to stay indoors.
Bodies of two women Asiya (17) and her sister-in-law Neelofar (22) were recovered from a shallow stream at Banagam, Shopian on May 30. The autopsy and FSL reports have revealed that the women were raped and killed.
Assistant Professor Government Psychiatric Hospital Srinagar, Dr Sadaqat Rehman told Rising Kashmir that the Shopian incident may have fallout on the psyche of the womenfolk. "Though Kashmir had witnessed many rapes and molestation incidents in past but the mysterious nature of the Shopian case may lead to psychological disorders among the teenaged girls".
Rehman said immediately after the Shopian incident, a 15 year old girl from Pulwama, Nighat underwent psychological disorders. "She had developed fear psychosis due to the Shopian incident and is the first case of its kind after the gruesome incident in South Kashmir," said Rehman, adding, "We provided her proper counselling and she has responded well to the treatment. Her condition is improving".
Explaining Nighat's behavioural changes, the psychiatrist said the girl stopped taking meals and told her parents that she doesn't want to go to the school as she was feeling unsafe. "Nighat told me too that she was feeling unsafe as she had to cross a bridge like the one at Rambiar stream in Shopian".
He said after the Shopian incident Nighat did not venture out of her house for many days. "Feeling the change, her family members brought her here for treatment," he said.
Rehman said many teenage girls have sought counselling from the psychiatrists in the GPH after their parents detected changes in their behaviour. "Shopian spill over can be dangerous. Like Nighat, many girls would be suffering from sleep disorder and behavioural changes," he said.
The psychiatrist said if remedial measures are not taken, the girls would prefer to stay indoors.
Rehman said some of the girl patients intended to carry poison pills, knives and pesticides with them to defend themselves in case of attack on their honour and chastity. "Some girl patients and their parents sought suggestions from us how to defend themselves in case they get caught in Shopian like situation," said Rehman.
Meanwhile, sociologist, Prof Bashir Ahmad Dabla attributed the fear that has gripped the womenfolk to the heavy presence of military in the region. "A sudden look at a trooper sends shock wave among the woman. It is here where a woman who is already caught in the domestic violence, becomes a psychiatric patient," he said.
Citing few examples of a book published by London School of Economic about "Women in Conflict", Dabla said the book points out that in the areas which are heavily militarized, women are the worst sufferers. "It is the women who are being raped or molested. The level of patience in women is less than that of a man. This is the primary reason why women suffer shocks even if they hear a sound of an explosion," Dabla said.
He said the rise in drug abuse among Kashmiris including girls is also directly related to the heavy presence of military in the region.

CUNA Testifies in Favor of Regulatory Relief Proposals
Last week, CUNA presented to the U.S. House Financial Services Committee on a myriad of potential areas for regulatory relief proposals, ranging from the CFPB rules and the Dodd-Frank Act to the Federal Credit Union Act and NCUA rules that need revision.
Included in this testimony were several items strongly recommended by MCUL & Affiliates CEO David Adams to CUNA, and based on Michigan credit union feedback. These included a need to revisit and raise the exemption threshold for the rule on international remittance transfers and a need for more flexibility in the 120-day prohibition on filing or noticing with regard to foreclosures, under the new CFPB mortgage servicing rules.
"It is heartening to see CUNA take up the banner of regulatory relief with our House Financial Services Committee." Adams said. "The MCUL has been reviewing these topics and taking member feedback and many of our concerns are shared in CUNA's discussion, including these critical items."
Many credit unions currently providing international remittance transfers as a service for members will be forced to discontinue the practice, even under proposed amendments designed to improve the functionality of the rule. And, the 120-day prohibition in the mortgage servicing rule fails to provide any relief if the borrower is not participatory, unlike one positive feature of Michigan's state 90-day pre-foreclosure workout law which covers similar matters.
The committee is expected to continue examining potential areas for legislation over the next few weeks.

SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) - Authorities have lifted a lockdown at a building at San Jose State University after saying they did not find a gunman during a sweep.
The university said on its Twitter page that the lockdown at Sweeney Hall was ended a little before 11 a.m. Thursday.
University spokeswoman Pat Lopes Harris says authorities received a report of a gunman around 9 a.m. She said there were no reports of injuries.
The San Jose Mercury News says a student reported seeing a man dressed in black clothing holding a gun in Sweeney Hall. Students and faculty inside the building had been ordered to shelter in place.
The rest of campus remained open while police swept the building.
Sweeney Hall houses the school's College of Education.

Editorial Leadership Shuffle at Wired.com
Evan Hansen departs as editor as Mark McClusky takes the helm.
Through a pair of tweets yesterday Mark McClusky and Evan Hansen announced a transition at the top editor spot at Condé Nast's Wired.com. Hansen is departing and McClusky, formerly the editorial development director, will be taking over the position, a role that Hansen had filled since 2005.

Hansen ambiguously broke the news about his departure on Twitter Monday tweeting "So long @wired it's been fun." Shortly after, McCulsky followed up by tweeting, "Couldn't possibly be more proud or excited to be named the new editor of Wired.com. Now, the fun starts."
No information has been given as to why Hansen is leaving, or who made the decision. However, a Condé Nast representative has confirmed that Hansen is out and McClusky is in.
McClusky was just promoted to editorial development director at Wired.com last month.Â
Condé Nast also reports that Hayley Nelson will be joining Wired.com as director of product, a new position at the publication. Nelson joins from The New York Times. Both McClusky and Nelson will report to the recently named editor-in-chief at Wired magazine, Scott Dadich.

A typical MO for the public service that I have witnessed in my 20+ years of service is that the management doesn't seem to want to believe or accept that ANY of the problems might be because of them ! This seems even more so with the Government of the Day who's feces doesn't smell, BTW, and, because of that, the only logical cause of any problems must be the public service !!! It seems almost vendetta-like !

The problem is that when the economy is bad and any real private industry jobs with good positions are far and little the government has a lot less tax revenues from a population making good wages. Without today's low interest rates the federal deficit would have ballooned. To prepare for the advent of rising interest rates the government has chosen to reduce government expenditures by reducing the public service itself and any costly benefits they may engender. The majority of voters do not care about "Fat Cat" civil servants. For example, the Canadian Federation of Independent Businesses (CFIB) is lobbying the conservative government in that regard. The CFIB represents the majority of small and medium size businesses in Canada. The problem is when the typical civil servant is brought to par with the small and medium size business employee that civil servant will have no guaranteed pension plan, watered down benefits not to mention salary claw backs (4% is projected for next year). Just watch as the government continues to play a shell game around our PIPS and PSAC unions. BTW Job security is next (the process begins with performance reform April 2014). Just ask any young person if she or he wants to enter a dull, frustrating bureaucratic job if there are no rewards, at least in private industry if you work hard you would reap the rewards either in the form of a legacy that you pass down or as Marvin said (above) in the form of large profits. Ask me what I would do if I had to do it again after 27 years in the government, I am not sure because like many civil servant I am handcuffed to the pension penalties at least until I retire in 3 years. I do know that all my siblings and many of my friends in private industry (trades and restaurateurs mainly) are doing very well and many will have something to pass down to their employees (some of which maybe their own family members). On one hand these Business owners envy government workers for Their Superannuation plan, but on the other for the fact that these business leaders are in control and love their business and do not mind working past 60 or 65 or even 70 because they enjoy having a legacy to leave behind. Unfortunately not everyone can be a successful business owner who actually cares about their employees. So for the majority who are employees working for private industry bosses who only care about profit I wish you the very best of luck because once the government gets their way with its civil servants many of these greedy private industry bosses will have absolutely no higher standard/precedent to follow. Some of the benefits we civil servants have acquired with the hard work of our unions and our forefathers (i.e. Marvin's dad) took decades to achieve, currently the conservative government successfully annulled severance, wiped out subsidised parking, they have and continue to increase our pension contributions, and are now targeting sick leave, performance and job security and the latest is a 4% salary roll back. It took us decades the conservative government only months. Again, the non public service voters can only see this as the demise of the FAT CATS. The solution is for the population to react to the fact that globalisation is not working to change our leaders' minds about returning the good manufacturing jobs to Canada. After all the Americans are preaching "America first", when was the last time you bought something "made in Canada". All of the points I am making are all somewhat related. We can't all have white collar jobs with master's degrees or PHDs, some of us would be quite happy having a blue collar job working for Canadians locally and dealing with "America First" as and when.

Marvin really hit the nail on the head with his description of the campaign being waged by the government against its own staff. It is one thing to do a bit of trimming - especially given that some of the staffing increased happened under Harper's watch. But it is quite another to blame us for everything that is wrong with government.

The civil service provides the very best job security in the nation, long with better pay and pensions and benefits than the private sector. This is simply not equitable, it is not financially sustainable, and it is not base on any economic rationality. It has come to this on the long-term "kick the can down the road for some other sap to deal with" attitudes of fellow bureaucrat negotiators agreeing to unjustified labour contracts....it's not their money, and it makes potential problems go away. Et voila.
- Eli
- June 24, 2013 - 10:23
Yes David b'y, and we should all be happily living on minimum wages and the accompanying benefits, as long as it didn't apply to you of course. Your gatekeeper take the day off Sunday?

People tend to forget that federal public service workers contribute their own money into their pension fund (40% increasing to 50%) AND the federal govt was happy to use the 30Billion (yes billion) surplus in the public service pension fund to pay down the Canadian debt. So, in fact, it seems that the Canadian public has benefited by the public service pension plan.
- July 05, 2013 - 10:23
Better pay and benefits that the private sector? Not necessarily. This is one of the reasons the Harper campaign against the Public Service has been so successful - misconception. I left a much higher paying job in the private sector because I believed I could make a difference serving Canadians. I am no more secure than I was in the private sector. The employer contributions to my pension plan does not come close to making up for the salary cut and and I contribute 40% to that pension. By the way - we have no choice but to pay into that pension....if I wanted to invest it elsewhere, too bad - I don';t have a say. People need to start thinking about what public servants do...not what we get that others don't. As employers, would you not want a highly skilled and motivated workforce to ensure the best value for your money? By cutting, and in some cases, eliminating benefits to the public service, what happens to the motivation to attract the workforce you want?? I am all for efficiency and improvements but that doesn't happen simply by cutting jobs and benefits. Cutting jobs may very well have the opposite effect.

USS Downes (DD-375), 1937-1947
USS Downes, a 1,500-ton Mahan class destroyer, was built at the Norfolk Navy Yard, Virginia. She commissioned in January 1937 and was sent to the Pacific later in that year. Into 1940, when her base was shifted to Pearl Harbor, Downes operated out of San Diego, California. In March and April 1941, she crossed the Pacific to visit Australia.
On 7 December 1941, Downes was in drydock at the Pearl Harbor Navy Yard when the Japanese attacked. She was severely damaged by bombs, fire and the explosion of one of her own torpedoes and other ammunition, leaving her an apparent total loss. Salvaged in the drydock over the next two months, her wrecked hull was refloated in February 1942 and later scrapped. However, her machinery and some of her fittings were installed in a new hull that was built at the Mare Island Navy Yard, California, under her original hull number of DD-375.
Downes (DD-375) recommissioned in November 1943 and went to the Central Pacific in March 1944. She operated in that area through October, taking part in bombardments of Tinian, Aguijan and Marcus islands, and also serving with Task Force 38 during the Battle of Leyte Gulf. Following an overhaul at Pearl Harbor, Downes returned to the Marianas area in March 1945, spending for the rest of World War II on escort, patrol and other routine duties. She left the Pacific in October 1945, transiting the Panama Canal en route to the U.S. east coast, where she was decommissioned in December 1945. USS Downes was sold for scrapping in November 1947.
This page features all our pre-World War II views of USS Downes (DD-375), and provides links to those taken later.

Frost & Sullivan: High-value Opportunities For Lignin
LONDON, Nov. 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Addressing markets worth more than 130 billion dollars, lignin could become the main renewable aromatic resource for the chemical industry in the future. The first opportunity could emerge as early as 2015 from the direct substitution of phenol in most of its industrial applications: phenolic resins, surfactants, epoxy resins, adhesives or polyester.
"The industry is just beginning to scratch the surface of lignin's potential," explains Frost & Sullivan consultant, Nicolas Smolarski: "It is the only renewable source for industrial aromatics production and is de-correlated from the fluctuating price of oil."
Lignin represents 30 per cent of all the non-fossil organic carbon on Earth. Its availability exceeds 300 billion tonnes, increasing annually by around 20 billion tonnes. A high quantity of lignin is found in wood, in which it represents 20–35 per cent in terms of weight. Compared to other wood components (cellulose and hemicelluloses), it is a much more complex polymer, but has been considered for a long time a low-quality and low-added-value material.
For example, as of 2010, the pulp and paper industry alone produced an estimated 50 million tonnes of extracted lignin, but only 2 per cent (1 million tonnes) was commercially used for low-value products such as dispersing or binding agents; the rest was burnt as a low-value fuel. Overall, the lignin business today represents roughly 300 million dollars.However, new, developing technologies now allow the extraction of high-purity lignin which can be converted in various high-value chemicals and products, among which are BTX (Benzene, Toluene, Xylene), phenol, vanillin or carbon fibre. Mr Smolarski explains that "one of lignin's unique strength is that it can either be used directly as a 'drop in' to replace phenols in an existing petrochemical process, or it can be further processed to create polymer building blocks."

Smith sees Nationwide progress
In his first season as a Nationwide Series regular driving for Junior Motorsports, Regan Smith is happy with the team's progress.
He has a win (a controversial one at Talladega), finished in the top 10 in seven straight races and is on top of the driver standings by 28 points over Sam Hornish Jr.
All of that does not make him the favorite in today's History 300 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
That honor goes to Kyle Busch, who has dominated the Nationwide Series this season and Nationwide events at CMS in recent years.
In 19 CMS Nationwide starts, Busch has won six times, finished in the top-five 14 times and in the top 10 a total of 16 times, and has led 903 laps. This season, Busch has won five times in eight starts and doesn't lead the points because he can't earn them as a Cup driver.
Busch's teammate, Matt Kenseth, and Smith's teammate, Kasey Kahne, both have CMS Nationwide wins and are expected to be Busch's main challengers.
With a victory, Smith would cement his status as a championship contender. Smith believes his team is not far from reaching its full potential.
"At the start of the season, we had a lot of unknowns because we hadn't been together," Smith said. "By the time we left Daytona, the intensity we had and the chemistry we had, I think we were an 8 or 9 (on a scale of 10). But I think we are close to being a 10 although we may have to win 10 weeks in a row to be a 10. But, we have good chemistry and the guys are working their butts off. It's been fun to watch."
Richard Childress Racing announced Friday that it has signed a multi-year sponsorship deal with the Menard's hardware stores that will keep Paul Menard as driver of the No. 27 Chevrolets in the Cup Series. Team owner Richard Childress said crew chief Slugger Labbe will also return.
Menard is in his third season with RCR. He has scored his only Cup victory in that span, that coming in the 2011 Brickyard 400.
A three-person NASCAR appeals panel on Friday upheld the four-race suspensions and $15,000 fines handed RCR Nationwide crewmen Thomas Costello and Michael Searce for fighting with members of Nelson Piquet Jr.'s team following a race last month at Richmond.

The problem of steady laminar mixed convection boundary layer flow of an incompressible viscous fluid along vertical moving thin needles with variable heat flux for both assisting and opposing flow cases is theoretically considered in this paper. The governing boundary layer equations are first transformed into non-dimensional forms. The curvature effects are incorporated into the analysis whereas the pressure variation in the axial direction has been neglected. These equations are then transformed into similarity equations using the similarity variables, which are solved numerically using an implicit finite-difference scheme known as the Keller-box method. The solutions are obtained for a blunt-nosed needle (m = 0). Numerical calculations are carried out for various values of the dimensionless parameters of the problem, which include the mixed convection parameter λ, the Prandtl number Pr and the parameter a representing the needle size. It is shown from the numerical results that the skin friction coefficient, the surface (wall) temperature and the velocity and temperature profiles are significantly influenced by these parameters. The results are presented in graphical form and are discussed in detail.

Rick Perry Changes His Tune on Social Issues at the Slightest Complaint from Religious Fundamentalists
The best way to find out what a Perry presidency would look like for women and social issues writ large? Look at what far-right, conservative, religious and evangelical power players want him to do; whatever it is, he'll do it.
The Texas governor signs on the dotted line for the Susan B. Anthony List.
The candidacy of presidential contender Texas Governor Rick Perry highlights all the problems with the conservative, anti-sex movement and their investment in theocracy.
Presidential wannabee Texas Gov. Rick Perry says if abstinence doesn't work, maybe it's not being "taught right."
Protecting girls from cervical cancer was a mistake, according to the presidential contender.
The newly announced presidential candidate is now reminding everyone of his anti-choice chops.
First he believed in states' rights. Now, he doesn't.
The Texas Governor addresses a Latino pro-life rally.
I'm not the feminist savior of Texas, but if I don't leave, and if my feminist friends don't leave, maybe we can bring more people to our side. Maybe if we don't leave, we can change the conversation instead of scoffing and tsking from outside while anti-feminist, anti-woman laws and social practices leave a legacy of lasting, visceral harm on real, live Texans.

January 26th, 2011 | TriCare Help | Posted by Military Times
Q. I work at an acupuncture office that sees many active-duty service members and veterans. A few have asked us to write letters to Tricare to request that acupuncture services be covered. I read in your column that Tricare itself cannot make changes; they must come from Congress. Where might people direct their letters?
February 3rd, 2010 | TriCare Help | Posted by Military Times
Q. Will Tricare pay anything for acupuncture or a chiropractor? I use them and they seem to work; I no longer take allergy meds. I still have a regular doctor too. I had the coverage when I had my employer's insurance.
Tricare is currently forbidden by federal law and regulation to pay for chiropractic care or acupuncture. I am aware that there are people with strong feelings about the effectiveness of both of those treatment modalities, both for and against, and both have been the subject of considerable public dispute and debate.
Tricare is not a health insurance policy or an insurance company. It is a federal health benefits program created and governed by federal law, which determines who is eligible and when, which medical services Tricare may cover and which are excluded, the amounts it may pay for each medical service and the manner of payment, the portion of the costs of care that are the beneficiary's responsibility to pay, and the like. Only Congress can change it.

- Posted by avidgardener25 none (My Page) on Sun, Sep 2, 12 at 14:00
|Judging this specific pod, it seems to have similarities to a cubanelle pepper. May be wrong though.
- Posted by PepperGuy222 none (My Page) on Sun, Sep 2, 12 at 14:17
|the peppers in the back are Hot Hungarian Wax Peppers, but i was thinking cubanelle as well, but i never planted cubanelle. I planted Jalapeno, thin Cayenne and Hot Hungarian Wax. My Jalapenos are CLEARLY jalapenos, ive grown them for years, but this is just confusing me. lol.

Occupy the Internet? .NYC Domain Should Belong to the Protest, One Activist Says
Occupytheurl.com lets you turn any website into an instant Occupied meme. But digital activist and "cultural commons" advocate David Bollier has another idea. Those new top-level domains, at $26,000 a pop, that ICANN recently opened up to the domain-registering free world? They should belong to the people, he says. "The Occupy forces in hundreds of cities should petition their local governments to acquire a new 'top-level Internet domain' for their city, and to manage that patch of cyberspace as a local commons."

Jones: No regrets about French snub
ESPN Staff
November 10, 2012
Alun Wyn Jones is glad he remained with the Ospreys © Getty Images
Alun Wyn Jones insists he has no regrets about resisting lucrative offers to join play in France.
The Wales lock was wanted by Clermont Auvergne and Toulouse 18 months ago when his Ospreys contract was coming to an end. But he opted not to join the growing number of British players leaving these shores for big-money contracts in the French Top 14.
And the British & Irish Lions lock insists he is happy with that decision after regaining his form on the field and his international place.
"I was very flattered by the interest from France," he told Walesonline. "But the Ospreys is my region and I thought I still had a lot to give. I'd started something there that I wanted to continue with.
"I was captain as well and didn't really have a great first year and I knew I would miss a fair amount of the following season because of the World Cup. So I believed I had unfinished business as captain. We were still working towards what we had set out to achieve, reconfiguring the squad, and I'm happy to be part of that.
"I've no regrets. I don't think you can afford to. It is what it is. I am enjoying my rugby at the moment. My game was probably in the doldrums about 18 months ago. I'm pretty happy at the moment. So no, no regrets."
The lure of France was too good for Jamie Roberts to resist though and the Wales centre recently agreed a deal to join Racing Metro when his current deal with Cardiff expires. Jones admits Roberts' departure will be a loss for Cardiff and Welsh rugby.
"First and foremost, Jamie has got to make the decision for himself," Jones said. "He's done that and there will be reasons for it. It's a tough decision to make to go away.
"From a Blues' perspective, they've created a great player and they haven't been able to keep him. It will be a loss to the region. But he's made that decision and you've got to get on with it. It was a bit different for me. Going out there as a forward can shorten your career somewhat, whereas if you go out as a back you will be OK."

Crustacean Crime Theater is a TV show that only appears in the episode "Life of Crime." It's a show in which Crustaceans commit crimes. SpongeBob, Patrick and Mr. Krabs, were the only characters to be seen watching the show.
In the show, a mean hermit crab (possibly the Sneaky Hermit) stole a sleeping hermit crab's shell. The sleeping hermit crab wakes up and told police that a hermit crab stole his shell. The police caught him and put in jail.
