Green & Blacks Organic Chocolate Review & The Ultimate Chocolate Fudge Cake
Let me clarify, I don't eat several bars of chocolate a day…heck I don't even eat one bar. I'm a firm believer of everything in moderation…including chocolate. So maybe I'll have a taste here and there. I don't think that's such a bad thing. I mean really life's too short Not to eat chocolate.
I was recently asked to review Green and Black's Organic chocolate for the blog. Being such a huge chocolate lover there was no way I was turning this opportunity down. I know what you're thinking…"What's the big deal; it's only chocolate."
Green and Black is not your everyday run of the mill chocolate it's an organic chocolate produced from beans grown mainly in the Dominican Republic and Belize. The beans are allowed to ferment for 5 days covered with banana leaves before they are transformed into chocolate. Oh and it's delicious.
The quality of the bean and the process used really shines through in the bars themselves. I was given both milk chocolate and a 70% dark chocolate to sample. I was extremely impressed with the milk chocolate. It was very creamy and intense; which I really liked. Definitely a good pop in your mouth, savor on your tongue type of chocolate. The dark chocolate was slightly bitter for my tastes. This is not surprising since it has 70% cocoa. It was perfect for baking though.
Speaking of baking I used my chocolate samples to make an Ultimate Chocolate Fudge Cake from the Green & Black's recipe archives. You want to talk intense…this cake is intense but it showcases the chocolate well. Since the cake is made with all dark chocolate I was a bit concerned at first that it might be too bitter to eat, but it was perfect. The cake alone reminds me of a dark chocolate fudge and then you add the icing....mmmm. A mixture of the dark and milk chocolate is whipped with butter to make an amazing chocolate buttercream. The combo of cake and icing is wonderful.
If you haven't tried Green & Black's Organic chocolates yet I would highly recommend doing so. Eat it alone or try baking with it like I did.
Ultimate Chocolate Fudge Cake
**Serves 16
31⁄2oz Green & Black's Dark 70% chocolate, broken into pieces
11/3 cups all-purpose flour
3⁄4 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch of salt
2/3 cup ground almonds
14 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus extra for greasing
11⁄4 cups light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 extra-large free-range eggs, lightly beaten
1⁄2 cup buttermilk
For the icing
7oz Green & Black's Dark 70% chocolate, broken into pieces
7oz Green & Black's Milk chocolate, broken into pieces
18 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting (optional)
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease two 8in pans with sides about 11⁄2in deep and line each with parchment paper.
Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of barely simmering water, making sure the bowl doesn't touch the water, then set aside to cool.
In a large bowl, sift the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and a pinch of salt, then stir in the ground almonds. Using an electric stand or hand-held mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until very light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract to the eggs. With the beaters running, very slowly add the egg mixture to the butter and sugar, adding 1 tablespoon of the flour mixture during the process to prevent curdling, then add the melted chocolate and buttermilk.
Very gently fold in the remaining flour and divide the mixture between the pans.
Bake on the center shelf for 30 to 35 minutes, or until risen and firm to the touch. Leave the cakes to cool slightly in the pan before turning on to cooling racks.
Once cold, remove the papers and slice each cake in half horizontally through the middle.
To make the icing, melt the chocolate following the method above. Set aside to cool slightly, then beat together with the butter. Using an offset spatula, spread evenly to sandwich the layers together and cover the top of the cake
**This recipe is for a 4 layer cake. I cut the entire recipe in half which is why my photo only shows two layers.

I ditto your "everything in moderation" philosophy--have a piece of chocolate everyday--just don't eat the whole cake! Speaking of cake, yours looks scrumptious:)ReplyDelete
You have a lovely, warm-feeling blog. Thank you for stopping by and visiting mine. I have seen the Green & Black Organic chocolate bars and wondered about them so it is good to know that you have baked with them and liked the results.

I am pretty sure I could happily live on chocolate, bread, cheese and wine for the remainder of my life. This cake would definitely keep me going for a day or two! (Did I mention I like chocolate?)ReplyDelete
I would never say, "What's the big deal? It's only chocolate." It's chocolate. Chocolate! I totally get it. ;)ReplyDelete

Green and Black's is my favorite brand. I don't always eat chocolate, but I've gotten in the bad habit of having to have one of their small bars with me when I fly - and I fly a LOT. This cake looks just over the top delectable. Great pic too. Thanks for sharing and happy weekend!ReplyDelete
ok, you will fall off from your chair now.. I am not a chocolate fan , but we always have it in some form at home, because my husband is .. i like only dark chocolate . but it's like once in a week I will feel like having a bite .. weird huh !!! :DReplyDelete
Well now I know which bar I'm going to pick up the next time I'm at the store! That chocolate cake looks utterly decadent!ReplyDelete
This is impressive. It would be so moist and creamy and gooey. Thanks for the recipe!ReplyDelete
They make such great chocolate. I love their varieties. Your cake looks so delicious. Chocolate cake is number one in my book!ReplyDelete
Love their chocolate. I've never baked with their chocolate because I enjoy the chocolate on it's own. Have you tried the peanut one? It's delicious!ReplyDelete

Confession: In high school I went through a brief punk phase. Wide-leg pants, black-and-red plaid, suspenders hanging down around my knees--the whole shebang. I have since given up the safety pins and thick black eyeliner, but I still haven't been able to abandon my fondness for the jewelry; there is something about skull charms and spike bracelets that will forever speak to me. You can imagine my delight when these punky trends started showing up in popular jewelry designs! Paired with softer colors and more delicate components than the traditional black leather, they have taken on a decidedly more feminine look (many are even finished in shiny gold tones and sparkly rhinestones!).
Would love to get my hands on some of these beauties:
As tempting as it is to buy up these daring pieces wherever I see them, I am holding out to make up some designs of my own!
These fun and funky materials are the next items on my shopping list:
Any other fans of this punky new trend out there?
Congratulations for the matter, I also like this trend. A hug, straight from Brazil.
I like to make spiked leather collars and bracelets. Black leather with brass or silver spikes looks cool. I used to wear spiked dog collars as belts when I was a teen :).
Love this!!! I used to do the punk stuff, back In The Day :-) -- I would happily welcome it back again, so thanks for posting this!!!

Selva,Verna & Sandy and all the other angels moms & dads. sorry I haven't been out to write, i have been going through some really tough times. It just seems that everyone has just forgot that I am hear and what pain I am still going through. I guess they feel if they don't come around they wont have to hurt or see me hurting. What makes me angry is that my sister Sheila who has always been around has just seemed to go her on way. She has her own agenda I guess. But I feel that she has pick her friends over me. Especially there is one that I don't get along with and she is always defending her to me, I can not stand that, so I just told me sister just don't even talk to me about her. I will always be nice to that person but I don't have to carry on any conversations with her. I guess I truely see what my sister is "it is all about her". I am sorry to have to unload this on you angel moms but there is no one else I can talk to about this. My husband just runs and tells her every thing I tell him so I just told tell him things anymore.

Hi Billie, nice to hear from you again, yes Nick was with you, see, there is this special feeling that we can not explain in words when our children are with us, please take care of "your feelings", your sister has another life and can not expirience the pain that you are going through, we can because we understand, but don't let it bother you, she is still your sister and I am sure she loves you a lot, but this pain it is difficult and not everybody understands it, we are here for you, but don't think your sister does not love you or anything like that, she has not experience this pain, that is not important , right now you have to pamper yourself, be easy on you, let the tears flow, and feel the pain, yes feel that pain, but also know that your Nick is with you 24/7, he can see you and he will try to communicate with you as much as he can, so everytime you feel those special feelings, enjoy it my sister, that it is Nick, see, he is not dead, he just went to another realm, (think maybe he moved to IOWA), but he is still there waiting for you, and eventually when God wants, you will be with him again. I know that for sure my sister, and please keep on coming back and posting here, and of course we do not think you are crazy, this is just a matter of understanding, try to read books about Life after life, if you are interested I can tell you about a lot of good books, the more understanding you have on this, the more it can help you. Love. Selva

Dear Angel Moms, ~ This is your nutty buddy, VClay ... 100% drained! God willing ... Will play catch up ASAP.
11/13/2003 21:39
hello angelmoms and dads...just here to post a small hello to all and to say I continue to pray for us all. My Matthews birthday will be Nov17...he would of been 17 that day..God help me..I miss him. It hurts to even think about him still...Ron wrote another song (in his memory). Only from God do these words and music flow from him. So thankful I should be. Please keep us in prayer....In His Care....Eva
11/13/2003 23:32
Hi dear Eva, oh, what a beautiful, tender song Ron has composed for Matthew! Ron has an amazing God-given talent for composing, God bless him. The kind of 'gift' that's meant to be shared and enjoyed, and touch others. I love the song, I imagine it as a 'ballad' type. Matthew's special birthday coming up, you know our love and prayers will be with you, as they always are, keep pressing on Eva, we're always here for you,
11/13/2003 23:44
Hi dear Billie, you don't ever have to apologize for sharing how you're feeling, that's what we're all here for, to offer support and understanding.
11/13/2003 23:52
Hello dear Miss V, good for you getting a letter published, you must have written a Mom who's lost a child/children. Look forward to seeing it!
11/13/2003 23:56
p.s. can you and Deb give AOL a cyber-kick in the butt, :-) I'm getting things sent back to me again from you both, (: - but it's not your faults, it's AOL itself, apparently a lot of people are having their mail bounced back to them by AOL - I was reading about it in PC World.
11/14/2003 02:58
Dear Billie, Through these pages we have all thought we are crazy, don't ever think you are we do understand as all the other Angel Moms have written. We walk a different journey and experience what others don't know try if you can to take a deep breath and talk to Nick like Selva said and Sandy we are so Blessed when they visit I talk to my children alot so no don't apologize ever thats why we have this Haven it saved my sanity, the Love and Support here will help you, families have a hard time absorbing and most of the time they just don't know what to say or comfort they want to but that means they will feel there own pain its taken seven years for my family to begin to express there pain in small amounts as Sandy said and I agree its a loneilessness that only others who have been on this journey understand when we can't others do like Selva said be gentle on yourself and let yourself feel your own feelings they are overwhelming but in time {sometimes a long time} so many memories come bittersweet. Its taken me seven years for my son and many more for my little girl so please come to this Haven and remember 1minute 1hour 1day. A friend explained it well its like ocean waves you get stronger and then something triggers the pain but it gets better and here has made the difference for me to come to terms because of the support and Love. BearHugs Donna
11/14/2003 03:00
Dear Eva, its so good to hear from you its become apart of me your saying of pressing on, what a heartfelt song and know our thoughts and prayers are with you BearHugs Donna
11/14/2003 03:03
ok nutty buddy Verna, never have I thought of you that way but I understand I hope they will send your letters, I'm glad you follow your heart and I'm sure what you wrote helped many take good care BearHugs Donna
11/14/2003 03:14
Dear Deb, I'm glad if what I said helped but you did the painful work which took so much and I know what you mean sometimes Justin's mannerism or a look and both of my boys liked cologne I was grateful not the same I would spray Mikeys too sometimes when he seemed so far away and still pick it up in a crowd or group Hang in there Deb I didn't do anything but God gave you what you needed not me I just remembered and Christmas is less painful due to the wreath and decorations that were Mikeys it helps and I cry because of the bittersweet but it does help Love You Deb and be very good to yourself and Thanks I'm glad that my journey could help, like Sandy I'm getting returns too and will keep trying someday aol will get there act together but know we are all thinking of you too and everyones prayers got you through and your courage TeddyHugs Deb Love Donna
11/14/2003 03:19
Dear Selva, yours is coming back to but will keep trying, I had an idea when you spoke of Solange's Prom dress I've had friends keep there Mom's and there Wedding dresses and they kept them on a dress manequin maybe that would help I've seen them in thrift stores and it would keep her dress in good shape if not now when your ready if you like the idea and yes we are praying for you and your adopted Mom let us know what your plans are and we are hoping Love&BearHugs Donna
11/14/2003 14:21
Sandy, Selva & Donna, thank you for your comforting words. I am trying to take it one day at a time. I need to just let things not bother me. I need to go for now I will write again soon. Lots of prayers Billie
11/14/2003 19:44
Hi my sisters, AOL its giving me a hard time, Donna your new e mail address its being returned, some of Verna are also returned, Sandy you are the only one I can connect but I am worried about you, you are keeping very quiet, is there anything we should know about? I hope this can go through I am getting flashes from AOL, Sandy I heard Lake Ontario had BIG WAVES, are you OK? Donna thanks my sister for your advices, I will keep on pressing on, like our dear sister Eva, and on monday I will start my "moving", please keep on praying that God will give me the strenght, I really need it. Love you my sisters. Selva
11/14/2003 23:26
Dear Sandy, ~ We need to know that you are OK! Like the other moms, I get a little worried when you get a little quiet. :) So let us know all is well.
11/14/2003 23:40
Dear Eva, ~ I love the words to the song that Ron wrote in tribute to your beloved son. It is so touching until I couldn't help but shed tears! The tears may come, but the words help to heal torn and shattered hearts. I know you thank God everyday for giving you a hubby who can express his grief in such an eloquent manner! I pray that both of you will continue to use your music ministry to help heal bereaved parents hearts. You both do your beloved Matthew proud!!!
11/15/2003 00:19
Heavenly Father, ~ I pray for all parents who, like me, have lost a beloved child. And, like Donna, has lost more than one child... Lord, we need You 24/7; especially in the beginning stages. For, it is then, that the grief is so very, very difficult. Father, I know You understand what it is like to lose a child. So, please give us those precious moments of peace for which we pray. Lord, we know that our beloved children are in heaven in your loving care ... But, we miss their physical presence. Therefore, I ask that You would give us signs, to assure us that our children are alive and well, never again to know pain! Lord, we know heaven is beautiful, and that someday our children will greet us at the gates of heaven, and we will be with them forever! Father, give us the strength we need to continue reaching out to other parents who are just beginning their painful journey. Please wrap your loving arms around them, God. These things I ask, in Jesus' name, Amen!
11/15/2003 09:15
Good Morning to All,
11/15/2003 16:11
Hi dear Miss V, yep it's me again, :-) wanting to scream at AOL, ha, ha!! 3 things sent back to me, and one was supposed to definitely go to you - I opened the link for the Bear Hugs page, and you were supposed to get confirmation that I had indeed opened it, instead, AOL sent it back to me!!

Failure Quotes and Sayings - Page 8
You don't always learn from failure. Sometimes the only thing you learned is that you failed
Failure is one thing, but to feel like it'll be there with you your whole life
is another.
Laziness is the right way to failure.
"Experience" is what You get… When you don't get what You want…
"What is failure? I guess I will never know because I will continue to try."
Excuses are the nails that build a house of failure.
Failiure tells us the true meaning of success
Never fear failure.
The only way success seems clear is when failing is never an option.
Don't let your victories go to your head or your failures go to your heart…
Erasers are for people willing to correct their mistakes…
Congratulations, You have failed successfully!
Failing my vision is easy to accept, but failing you, is what hurts more!
Failure can be accepted, but not trying can't.
A man can fail many times but he is not a failure until he starts to blame other people.
It doesn't matter if you keep failing , just get up and try again and again and again… :)
Thou shall not be judge when thou have fallen, but shall be respected when thy rise.
Do or Do not there is no try
The only time you truly fail is when you give up!
Or when you don't try at all!
Think of failure as a new opportunity to try harder!
True strength is to know how to fail with dignity!
Failure is a step towards success.
Every story has an end, but every end is just a new beginning.
It's better to have tried and failed, than to have never tried, cause it will always be in back of your head a WHAT IF?
Life is great only if you got faith in yourself and do what is right.
Failure is good.It gives me something to avoid.
There's no such thing as failure, the life we created is a choice we take. Its just hypocrisy to say that failure do exist, when they don't want to do the things that should be done.

The Marillac Mission Fund, a registered charity, supports the mission work of the Sisters of Providence of St. Vincent de Paul who are currently in Peru (El Progresso, Carabayllo). It was established in 1978.
Currently 21 students are being assisted. When a student receives assistance, that help continues until the student completes their program of study. In that way, they can count on finishing. The Peruvian currency is the Nuevo Sol (S/. ), and $10 Candian is about S/. 25-30. Students receive from 100-1,000 Soles in support.

You know about best-laid plans? After 10 years of holding great conferences, the Congregation's Healing Violence Committee had sworn off them. But then, a great synergy happened. The committee held a meeting with the International Women's Day reps in Kingston, and invited PeaceQuest to join in, and lo and behold … Women Do Peace emerged. And it was good.
Held on March 8, International Women's Day, the conference was active, participatory and engaging.
Renowned author Erna Paris was the keynote speaker and she brought both breadth and depth to her presentation. Moving between the tragedy of the Aboriginal women forgotten on the Highway of Tears in British Columbia to the Syrian women caught in a deadly conflict, she spoke of what gives women the "agency" – the ability to act – and what blocks this from developing. Key are empowerment, education, supportive families, economic opportunity and learning empathy. View full article »

Imagine you have two children. You work full time at the store down the road. Your husband is a cook at the local restaurant. When the bill for heating and lighting your home arrives, you receive quite a shock. The utilities cost more than the rent. You have to make a tough decision. Do you heat the home or feed the family? Not heating the home may result in child services knocking on your door.
Or you're a senior citizen who has lived in the same house all your life. It's a beautiful, but worn, brick home. Built at the turn of the century, there is not a stitch of insulation in the walls. You have always been a good saver and collect a pension. You're on a fixed income and have learned to budget – but rising utility costs have meant that you're dipping into your savings. Your income is relatively good but this cold winter has resulted in utility bills that have made you decide to keep the home much cooler than you would like. You are worried that the added sweaters have not adequately kept you warm and think it may be the home that is making you sick.
There are many citizens for whom these or similar scenarios are a reality. In Canada some 1 million people are affected by "energy poverty," and the numbers are rising. View full article »
The idea of rest is somewhat deceiving. We know as human beings that when we sleep we appear to others to be resting, to be immobile and still. But we also know that, in fact, our minds can be quite busy as we sleep – sometimes living a whole other life in a dreaming world of our own imagination and doing much of our best neurological processing of information.

The precariat? What's that? The funny-sounding word has recently been creeping from university seminar rooms into public discussion. Precarious work + the proletariat = the "precariat."
It refers to the decline of reliable, decently-paid work and the rise of part-time, temporary jobs that pay minimum wages.
Just before Christmas, veteran journalist Michael Valpy described the brave new world of work as a "fearsome cave of economic insecurity and the place where dignity and a sense of meaningfulness and self-worth are left at the door."
Working at a full time, minimum wage job (if you can find one) in Ontario still leaves you well below the poverty line.
The JPIC Office is involved in several efforts to fix a world of work that is increasingly fractured, a community ever more sharply dividing between the rich and the rest. View full article »

Many gardeners enjoy planning their gardens over the winter time, as it means dreaming of all the beautiful flowers and delicious, perfect veggies they can grow. In the planning stage, no pests come to chew on leaves, no drought makes plants droopy, and no worries of poor pollination need apply. The perfect garden of the imagination is all there is! When a gardener plans on growing some plants all the way to seed however, some restrictions do apply, which only increases the challenge and makes success that much more satisfying!

In these times of mass media coverage we take for granted seeing and hearing Pope Francis on television, radio and online. This access was not always the case…what if you had never heard the voice of the Pope? What would the first time you heard his voice mean to you?
The pope addressed the world's Catholics via radio for the first time on February 12, 1931, during the inaugural broadcast of Vatican Radio. Pope Pius XI made his remarks in Latin. This event was mentioned in the annals of several of the congregation's missions. View full article »

Chinese tech billionaire Jia Yueting is trying to get a license to build electric cars in China, and he thinks that they could be a revolution there. Even if Jia doesn't make it, other companies are getting ready to jump into China's emerging EV marketplace.
As fuel prices keep falling across the US, sales of fuel efficient vehicles keep going with them. By AutoblogGreen's tally, the market for green cars, which includes diesels, is down 6.4 percent through November 2014. However, there is a bright spot in the bleak news. Plug-in sales are actually up for the year by about 30 percent. A report from the US Energy Information Administration, a branch of the Department of Energy, finds that this segment is still growing. Though, their popularity is sti
Says EVs 'Remain The Most Practical And Affordable Zero-Emission Option'
That's a nice little dig at hydrogen fuel cell technology, Mr. Ghosn. The Nissan chief, long a champion and heavy-duty investor of electric-vehicle technology, wrote an essay on his LinkedIn Influencer page on why EVs are the theoretical wave of the future. It's obviously not an unbiased opinion, but he makes his points clearly.

Street Legal Formula-Style Racer Now Up For Crowdfunding
UPDATE: Looks like there's been a last-minute name change. Instead of the Predator's PC010 St, this vehicle is now the Egoista Motors' EM01 Stradale Project. Check out the live crowdfunding campaign here and the Facebook page here.
Not too long after Tesla stepped in to scoop up some of the engineers left behind as Ford, GM and Toyota announced shuttering production Down Under, the California-based EV company will start selling its Model S in Australia. Beginning Tuesday, December 9, sales will begin in Sydney, bringing a California-style plug-in change to the country's automotive landscape.
Anyone even vaguely familiar with the European auto market knows that diesel-fueled vehicles take up a huge portion of the roads there. A combination of high fuel efficiency, useful torque in tightly packed cities, low CO2 emissions and tax incentives all contribute to the popularity. However, ever the iconoclasts, the French government wants the oil burners off its roads in the coming years.
The press days are finished at the LA Auto Show, but things said there are still making news. While in California, Audi technical development chief Ulrich Hackenberg told reporters that his employer plans to release an electric car with a range of 280 miles "around 2017." Hackenberg wouldn't say what kind of car - or crossover, perhaps - it will be, but one report said it would be "a large car, fitting five large people with ample luggage space." Most observers expect it to be a sedan to take on
With Toyota and Daimler no longer holding Tesla shares, the electric vehicle company might be looking for a new partner – possibly a Bavarian one. In a new interview with Germany's Der Spiegel, CEO Elon Musk confirmed that he has had talks with BMW execs about future collaboration.
UC Davis Finds Current Situation 'Troubling'
"Help me help you!" Tom Cruise's title character pleaded repeatedly in the movie Jerry Maguire. That sentiment could be said by appears to be echoed by a UC Davis study that looks at why many car dealers are loathe to sell plug-in vehicles and how they can be, uh, helped.

Bills To Prevent Direct Vehicle Sales Moving Through Legislature
If you figured the home of the US car industry would be against messing with the age-old, franchised-dealer auto distribution system, you'd be right. Michigan, home to the Big Three US automotive companies (General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, now Fiat Chrysler), is moving towards officially disallowing companies like Tesla Motors from selling their cars directly to consumers, according to the Wall Street Journal. Tesla will naturally fight this, but it's one more challenge for the California-based a
The BMW i3 has been hailed in some quarters as the future of electric mobility, what with its innovative carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic body and commitment to sustainable materials wherever possible. The modernist little hatch is even available with a 650cc two-cylinder gas engine with 34 horsepower to act as a range-extender for those who want it. However, that optional engine might have a drawback – at least for the moment.
The Modular Battery Exchange And Active Management Road Test Is About To Start
Electric-vehicle battery swapping? A tough sell. Battery module swapping? That may change things.
Those Tesla Model S electric vehicles look good, but anyone worried about computers taking over our roads may want to steer clear of them starting next year. That's because 2015 may be when such vehicles will have autonomous-driving capabilities, according to an interview Tesla Chief Elon Musk conducted with CNN Money.
Stanford, MIT, Sandia Show Rapid Charge, Discharge Cycle Likely Balanced In Pack
Tesla Model S owners rejoice, for any reports of a lithium-ion battery's rapid demise from fast-charging might be highly exaggerated. A study put together by researchers from Stanford, Sandia National Laboratories and MIT and published in Nature Materials refutes previous reports that indicate that rapid charging and intense use of electric-vehicle batteries degrades them at a faster rate than a slower, steadier recharge-discharge process.
The Golden State is getting greener
California is considering changing building codes statewide so that new structures come pre-wired to handle charging electric vehicles.
Harry Reid says the federal government should commit more funds towards incentives for electric-vehicle purchases. We'll wait for readers' shock to sink in. Now, here are the details.
Electric-vehicle sales may be leveling off a bit in the US, but across the Pond, that's not the case. Nope, European drivers appear to be plugging in at a progressively faster rate, as EV sales during the first half of the year jumped 91 percent from a year earlier, Automotive News Europe says, citing JATO Dynamics. And while Renault EV sales are slowing down, Nissan, Tesla and BMW are more than picking up the slack.

Coal Ash
First Energy Ordered To Shut Down Little Blue Run
From the air it looks benign, but for years folks living nearby have contended that the Little Blue coal ash impoundment is contaminating their ground water. The state Department of Environmental Protection now agrees that water seeping from the lagoon has created that potential and has ordered the owner, First Energy, to it shut down.

Haiti's Michael Brun Talks EDM Stardom and Label
By Jacob Katel
He expected his mother to have reservations, but it didn't matter. So Surfer Blood's 23-year-old frontman, John Paul Pitts, broke the news in his parents' kitchen this past August. Instead of enrolling as planned for fall classes at Florida Atlantic University, he would hit the road with his band. His mother cried. "You'll never go back," she said. "You'll never finish school."
The odds were in her corner. The stories of failed indie-rock stardom are many. But Surfer Blood has experienced a tsunami of hype in the seven short months since its inception. They've received glowing writeups from bloggers, and after appearances at the recent CMJ Music Marathon in New York, they made it into the pages of the New York Times and Rolling Stone. It has been a ton of exposure for a band that seemingly came out of nowhere and whose official debut, Astro Coast, won't drop until January.
Blog-band status can be fleeting, and indie audiences are fickle, but Surfer Blood has a real shot at longevity. Not bad for five kids from Palm Beach County suburbs who are just in their early 20s.
30 NE 14th St.
Miami, FL 33132
Category: Bars and Clubs
Region: Downtown/Overtown
"I think the hype is well deserved," says Steve Rullman, promoter for the Lake Worth club Propaganda, who has booked the band more than a dozen times. "You see things in bands and you think this band has something special. I saw it in Marilyn Manson, I saw it in Chris Carrabba, and I see it in [Surfer Blood]."
Rullman, who used to book shows for Respectable Street in West Palm Beach, was the first to book the band in its earliest days — that is, last year. Back then, it called itself TV Club and constantly rotated members.
Then one night this past March, TV Club played a show at Churchill's Pub. Later that night, Pitts and Surfer Blood drummer Tyler Schwartz went to an afterparty for Ultra Music Festival. That's where they met future bandmates Thomas Fekete and Marcos Marchesani.
"We were probably a little out of place that night," Pitts recalls. "But we were in Miami. What should we do? Let's go party. So we hung out with [Fekete and Marchesani] the whole night." Fekete eventually admitted to Pitts how much he liked the band, and Pitts invited the two of them by to play. By this past August, the quintet embarked on two 14-date tours, one up the East Coast and one across the rest of the country.
What should have felt triumphant for the fledgling band, though, turned out to be one of its darkest periods. Stress levels were high and tensions boiled over as they played to empty venues and, often, dealt with delinquent promoters in city after city.
"It's hard to keep your head straight when you're playing really awful shows," Pitts says. "We're too young to be jaded about that kind of stuff, but it was pretty draining, especially when you drive six hours to a show and then the promoter's not there. And you have to go to the ATM at the end of the night to put gas in the tank and drive to the next city."
But a break came during the last of a string of four shows the band played in New York. Blogger and Brooklyn promoter Todd P caught a performance at Williamsburg music spot Bruar Falls. He tweeted about the band, and a chain reaction of coverage crowned the quintet as the newest darlings of the indie community.
"The fact that that could happen that quickly, it was unreal," Pitts says. "It was so bizarre, and it's been snowballing ever since."
Musically, it's easy to understand why Surfer Blood is so appealing. The band touches on almost every recent indie-rock trend, layering its sound with fuzzy guitars, then clean guitars, then impossibly catchy pop, then blissful choruses, and then lo-fi post-punk. And when the surf-inspired harmonies chime in, the music sounds and feels like Florida.
It wasn't just fans and indie labels that recognized the band's potential early on. The group officially signed with Kanine Records in September at a "signing party" at Propaganda. But they couldn't avoid being courted by creepy major-label guys. One from Columbia Records stands out in Fekete's memory.
"He was wearing a necklace with brass knuckles, if that tells you anything. It was ridiculous. They're completely clueless," Fekete recalls. The exec took them to his office on Madison Avenue and kept bringing up Hey Monday, the popsters from Palm Beach County who traveled on the mainstream Warped Tour. "And we were like, 'Do you understand we're very different from them?'"
The antagonism seemed to be mutual, though, according to Fekete. "He looked at us like, Who are these weirdo kids? I think he thought we would be better-looking or something."
But it wasn't until CMJ, an annual music industry extravaganza in New York, when the band's new status was truly cemented. Surfer Blood played 13 shows in six days. Various music news outlets noticed, though almost none was as important as the New York Times, which began an umbrella piece about CMJ with a description of Surfer Blood as "self-starting and hardworking in the ways that fledgling bands have had to learn in order to survive."

Isoc·ra·tesbiographical name \ī-ˈsä-krə-ˌtēz\
Definition of ISOCRATES
436–338 b.c. Athenian orator
Isocratesbiographical name (Concise Encyclopedia)
(born 436, Athensdied 338 BC, Athens) Athenian author, rhetorician, and teacher. His school, unlike Plato's more philosophical Academy, provided an education for the practical needs of society; it was given over almost entirely to rhetoric. He promoted Greek political unity and cultural superiority based on monarchy and advocated a unified Greek attack on Persia under Philip II of Macedonia to secure unity and peace in Greece. When Greece lost its independence after the Battle of Chaeronea, Isocrates, in despair, starved himself to death.

Who reasons wisely is not therefore wise; His pride in reasoning, not in acting, liesAlexander Pope
The pride of the peacock is the glory of God.William Blake
Temper gets you into trouble. Pride keeps you there.Unknown
Show class, have pride and display character.If you do, winning takes care of itself.Paul "Bear" Bryant
Generosity during life is a very different thing from generosity in the hour of death; one proceeds from genuine liberality and benevolence, the other from pride or fear.Horace Mann
There are various sorts of curiosity; one is from interest, which makes us desire to know that which may be useful to us; and the other, from pride which comes from the wish to know what others are ignorant of.Kin Hubbard
The same stream of life that runs through my veins night and day runs through the world and dances in rhythmic measures. It is the same life that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth in numberless blades of grass and breaks into tumultuous waves of leaves and flowers. It is the same life that is rocked in the ocean-cradle of birth and of death, in ebb and in flow. I feel my limbs are made glorious by the touch of this world of life. And my pride is from the life-throb of ages dancing in my blood this moment.Rabindranath Tagore
One of the best temporary cures for pride and affectation is seasickness; a man who wants to vomit never puts on airs.Josh Billings
What you say of the pride of giving life to an immortal soul is very fine dear, but I own I cannot enter into that: I think much more of our being like a cow or a dog at such moments: when our poor nature becomes so very animal and unecstaticQueen Victoria
Labor wants also pride and joy in doing good work, a sense of making or doing something beautiful or useful - to be treated with dignity and respect as brother and sisterThorstein Veblen
Pride is the master sin of the devil, and the devil is the father of liesEdwin Hubbel Chapin
Pride is pleasure arising from a man's thinking too highly of himself.Baruch Spinoza
Hospitality still survives among foreigners, although it is buried under false pride among the poorest Americans.Jane Addams
If I do find pride, I'll not find it in what I was or what I am, but what I may become. Not in my birth, but in myself.Lloyd Chudley Alexander
Writers must fortify themselves with pride and egotism as best they can. The process is analogous to using sandbags and loose timbers to protect a house against flood. Writers are vulnerable creatures like anyone else. For what do they have in reality? Not sandbags, not timbers. Just a flimsy reputation and a name.Brian Wilson Aldiss
We're mortal - which is to say, we're ignorant, stupid, and sinful - but those are only handicaps. Our pride is that nevertheless, now and then, we do our best. A few times we succeed. What more dare we ask for?Poul William Anderson
Pride, Envy, and Avarice are the three sparks that have set these hearts on fire.Durante degli Alighieri
"For I am holy." When I hear these words I recognize the voice of the Saviour. But shall I take away my own? Certainly when He speaks thus He speaks in inseparable union with His body. But can I say, "I am holy"? If I mean a holiness that I have not received, I should be proud and a liar; but if I mean a holiness that I have received - as it is written: "Be ye holy because I the Lord your God am holy" (Lev. 19:2) - then let the body of Christ say these words. And let this one man, who cries from the ends of the earth, say with his Head and united with his Head: "I am holy." ... That is not foolish pride, but an expression of gratitude. If you were to say that you are holy of yourselves, that would be pride; but if, as one of Christ's faithful and as a member of Christ, you say that you are not holy, you are ungrateful. ...St. Augustine of Hippo
Justice being taken away, then, what are kingdoms but great robberies? For what are robberies themselves, but little kingdoms? The band itself is made up of men; it is ruled by the authority of a prince, it is knit together by the pact of the confederacy; the booty is divided by the law agreed on. If, by the admittance of abandoned men, this evil increases to such a degree that it holds places, fixes abodes, takes possession of cities, and subdues peoples, it assumes the more plainly the name of a kingdom, because the reality is now manifestly conferred on it, not by the removal of covetousness, but by the addition of impunity. Indeed, that was an apt and true reply which was given to Alexander the Great by a pirate who had been seized. For when that king had asked the man what he meant by keeping hostile possession of the sea, he answered with bold pride, What thou meanest by seizing the whole earth; but because I do it with a petty ship, I am called a robber, whilst thou who dost it with a great fleet art styled emperor.St. Augustine of Hippo
Machines have no political opinions, but they have profound political effects. They demand a strict regimentation of time, and, by abolishing the need for manual skill, have transformed the majority of the population from workers into laborers. There are, that is to say, fewer and fewer jobs which a man can find a pride and satisfaction in doing well, more and more which have no interest in themselves and can be valued only for the money they provide.Wystan Hugh Auden
The mass and majesty of this world, all That carries weight and always weighs the same Lay in the hands of others; they were small And could not hope for help and no help came: What their foes like to do was done, their shame Was all the worst could wish; they lost their pride And died as men before their bodies died.Wystan Hugh Auden
No agony, no ecstacy, no pleasure and no pain so exquisitely uninteresting you drive your wife insane The TV is your oracle, the newspapers your guide and your shiny little vehicle is your passion and your pride You've done the same things every day for nigh on forty years and in your ludicrous routines you hide your worthless fears On the blandest boat in Boredom you are captain of the crew and every time I eat vegetables it makes me think of you.Attila the Stockbroker
