My only grandparent I've ever met died last December, thousands of miles away from me. I remember feeling things, most of them odd. There was shame for avoiding talking with her over the phone, because I'd let my Arabic devolve to a touristic repetoire. There was frustration I'd probably never visit my homeland, Iraq. Fear for a family I hardly knew.
There was one feeling that should've been stronger, but it wasn't. Even now, with time to reflect, that feeling is not as tangible as it should be. That feeling was and is sadness.
When she died, I'd not seen my grandmother in over half my lifetime. When she stayed here with us for two months, I wasn't even a teenager. I was too young and perhaps too spoiled to really appreciate how lucky, how important and wonderful that time was. I can vividly remember walking through a supermarket with her, chiding each other in broken English and Arabic. I can remember her praying in the dining room, the way she beached on sofas happily like a contented cat, the tutting arguments she had with my mother. Every time I think of her I see her wiry grey hair and gauzy glasses, and whatever she says is sung like a loving chant – she sung hymns with the aplomb and warble of true devotion. I knew I wasn't religious even at that age, but I loved the way she sung.
Her death was the first I knew to someone I held dear. Yet it felt detached. Hers was a death I couldn't deserve to be sad about.
In fact, I was sadder thinking about the broken state of my relationship with my parents. I've been sadder about a lot more things. I miss my grandmother. But I've always missed her, I think. I've always felt robbed of her.
One time I felt sadder was a few months earlier, a few hours after I found Laura in bed, unable to get up. It was around 2pm on a Saturday. I wanted to go do something with her, and was annoyed she'd spent the week staying in bed. If I'd had paid a little more attention, I would've seen the signs that became truly evident that morning. The slurring, the memory loss, the inability to balance. Over the week she'd seemed tired. That Saturday afternoon, my girlfriend was a drunk who hadn't touched a bottle.
Soon after I got her to the hospital, the doctors told me it was lithium toxicity, most likely the result of some disorder, imbalance, something. I wanted to know the cause, but I was more concerned by the numbers they were dropping, and specifically the gap between them. This was serious, they said, and it was good I'd spotted it early. But it was serious enough the words "risk of brain damage" could not be unsaid.
Let's briefly skip to the end here: Laura recovered, and while she's still unwell – she's long had a few chronic conditions – those words never came to fruition.
I knew as I watched her in that hospital bed struggle to rest, to talk, to remember where she lived, that I wasn't ready for death. Or anything. I'd made it more than 30 years on this Earth, and I'd been through some terrible things, no doubt. But I'd never seen anything I felt I couldn't move on from. Nothing permanent, nothing like this. Nothing like death.
I know I'm lucky to have made it this far. Trust me, I know. I remember trying to talk to my friend Rob at his mother's funeral. We were teenagers, standing in the cemetery of the church. Rob is a brutally honest person. He has always been a man of few words, but those words are always carefully chosen, unfrilly and convincing. He says what he thinks and he knows what he thinks. But on that day, the wind just fluttered around our suits, with an unknowing Wimbledon in sight beneath us. And he said nothing. He just stood there and said nothing. I think I blathered some friendly, consoling nothings. Eventually I stopped, and we stood there, looking at the brown and green below. It was the coldest I'd ever felt.
Even then, I remember thinking one day that'll be me.

"Eric is to die for..."
I'm up to book seven but so far this is my favorite, Eric- this vulnerable unabashed version makes you melt. I was looking for something to peak my interest after finishing the Twilight Saga, and the HBO series drew my to the author. Audio books in the past failed to hold my interest for too long, but the combination of great writing and an amazing narrator makes this series addictive.

Feb. 4 (Bloomberg) -- Turkish jets struck Kurdistan Workers' Party, or PKK, camps in northern Iraq, the military General Staff said.
Turkey's air force attacked three targets yesterday, according to a statement published on the Ankara-based organization's website.
The PKK, which is listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and the European Union, has been fighting for autonomy in southeastern Turkey for three decades and has its command center in Iraq's Kandil Mountains.

Nokia 808 PureView vs Olympus E-PL2 vs Canon 5D Mark III vs Apple iPhone 4S: 38MP shootout
After seeing the Nokia 808 PureView ace our blind test and comfortably beat even a Micro Four Thirds camera, many of you wanted to see how its 41MP sensor does against higher res cameras. We now suggest you take a comfortable seat and get ready to find the answer.
This time we used the full resolution mode on Nokia 808 PureView, which is the only one that shows the true capabilities of the monster sensor. We shot the same image with the Canon EOS 5D Mark III, which is our workhorse DSLR, the Olympus E-PL2 large-sensor interchangeable lens camera, which was soundly trashed in the blind test and the Apple iPhone 4S, which should serve as a reference for the improvement the Nokia 808 brings to the smartphone world.

How Advantage II Works
Use Advantage II monthly to kill fleas on your cat. One of its active ingredients, imidacloprid, acts on the nervous system of the flea to cause paralysis and subsequent death. The other active ingredient of Advantage II is pyriproxyfen, an insect growth regulator (IGR) that, in combination with imidacloprid, kills all flea life stages on the treated cat and its surroundings.
Protecting your cat from fleas is important.
Part of keeping your cat healthy means year-round flea protection. That is because flea bites may:
- Cause discomfort for your cat;
- Cause irritation, which may lead to skin infections;
- In some cases, cause an allergic skin reaction;
- Transmit other disease-causing organisms, including tapeworms;
Advantage II:
Advantage II kills all flea life stages following contact with an Advantage II treated pet and protects against flea infestations for up to one month.
- Kills fleas through contact so fleas don't need to bite to die;
- Kills fleas within 12 hours of initial application;
- Kills reinfesting fleas (e.g., newly hatched fleas jumping back on the cat) within 2 hours;
- Is waterproof;
Millions of pet owners have used effective Advantage Topical Solution to control flea infestation on their pets. Now its successor, Advantage II, kills even more flea life stages.

Your Rating Product ADVANTAGE II Cat Flea Control 5-9 lbs Orange 4 Month
Note that there is a difference between Advantage and Advantage II. The older Advantage is an older formula and may not be as effective; probably why it is almost half the cost.
Advantage II, as with its predecessor, has been reliable since it first came out. Never have flea problems while using this.
Ordering from Value Pet Supplies was easy. Price is competative. Shipping time is reasonable.

Deputy recovering from self-inflicted gunshot wound
FREEDOM — A Carroll County sheriff's deputy shot himself in the leg Monday night while at the scene of a shooting on Huckins Road, state police said.
The deputy "suffered an injury to his lower leg and foot when his weapon unintentionally discharged at the scene," police said in a release. The deputy was taken to Huggins Hospital in Wolfeboro and is expected to make a full recovery, the release said.
The deputy, along with officers from state police and the Madison and Ossipee police departments, were investigating a shooting in which a man suffered a gunshot wound to his leg about 8:10 p.m. Monday. That man was taken to Memorial Hospital in North Conway, where he was treated for his injury and released, police said.
Joseph Wright, 38, of Parsonsfield, Maine, was charged with falsifying physical evidence, hindering apprehension and resisting arrest. Police said Wright "had been present during the alleged shooting."
State police and the Carroll County Sheriff's Department refused Tuesday to provide the deputy's name or any other information, including the name of the other man who was shot, beyond what was detailed in a press release.
Police are searching for a white man and white woman they said were at the scene of the shooting. Anyone with information is asked to call state police at 223-8838.

Brother MFC-7320 toner cartridges and supplies. Guaranteed quality, discount-pricing, and same-day shipping!
The Brother MFC-7320 is a multifunction laser printer that combines printing, copying, scanning and faxing in a single device that is very compact and lightweight. It features fast printing speed of up to 18 pages per minute and a fax transmission time of around 6 seconds. In addition to its affordable price, replacing toners is very inexpensive, as Brother MFC-7320 toner cartridges are some of the most affordable in its class. One of the most surprising aspects is the model's compact design, especially considering its wide range of features and functionality. Considering that it comes with a flatbed scanner and an automatic document feeder, its small size is very impressive. Paper capacity is adequate for its size, with a 250-sheet input tray and a 100-sheet output tray. The automatic document feeder can hold up to 35 sheets at a time. Brother MFC-7320 toner cartridges have a capacity of 1,500 pages, but high-yield versions are available with a capacity of 2,600 pages. Replacing the printer toner is as simple as opening the front panel, and using compatible Brother MFC-7320 toner instead of the OEM versions can lower operating costs by a significant amount. In their review, Computer Active praised the MFC-7320 for its solid construction and compact size. They liked its print quality and its fast printing speeds, and found its control panel to be very usable despite its small design. They found the lack of a network port to be a downside, but overall gave it a very favorable review. Personal users and small offices will love the MFC-7320's combination of features and its affordable price. With the ability to replace multiple machines in the office and take up very little space, it is the perfect fit for tight spaces, and its low price and inexpensive Brother MFC-7320 toner costs, it is a great value.
Based on our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee, Ink Technologies will accept returns of compatible or remanufactured ink and toner cartridges for full credit if the returned product has a valid return authorization number and is received in our warehouse within 6 months of the original shipping date. If there is a confirmed print quality issue, only 1 set of opened products will be accepted for credit returns, and only if less than 30% of the ink or toner has been used.

Eat your flowers
My garden is abloom with ruffles of sunny yellows and bold oranges. Nasturtiums: prettiness so good you can eat it.
The entire nasturtium plant above the ground is edible, and each part has a distinctive taste and use:
- delicately-flavoured flowers are great in salads, wraps and smoothies. I seem to recall a trend of adding flowers to salads in the 70s or 80s; various modern and ancient dishes incorporate floral essences (such as rosewater, orange blossom water, lavender) or tiny buds (eg. violets) as a microherb;
- the peppery leaves can be used as you would any other soft, green herb in salads, soups and stews;
- the seeds - apparently you can use these as a substitute for capers (when pickled) and black pepper (dry). On the strength of the one seed that I at yesterday, I could imagine the seeds being used in place of pepper, but my tastebuds and imagination could not be stretched to believe that they could be caper-like in any way (and, yet, I can see myself pickling them just to see) [1].
You may be thinking 'why…?', and I am excited to tell you that there are excellent health reasons to consider adding nasturtiums to your meals.
Nasturtiums are high in vitamin C, B vitamins, iron, calcium, phosphorus, manganese, flavonoids and carotenoids [2]. They also contain an appreciable amount of glucosinolates, or mustard-like oils, which keeps garden pests at bay and explains why they make such good companion plants [3].
It is also because of its pungent oils that this showy South American plant demonstrates antibacterial and even antibiotic properties. While generally considered to be an immunity booster, a 2006 study verifies that nasturtium stems can be used, with horseradish, to directly treat upper respiratory tract and urinary tract infections [3,4]. Other reports state that nasturtiums have historically been used to variously treat liver, kidney, bladder and skin disorders – and oil from the seeds can be used to varnish furniture [5,6].
Health benefits aside, if nasturtiums didn't taste good, I wouldn't be eating them – and that's why I thought I would tempt you toward these edible blooms with the awesome seasonal and superfood-ful smoothie I blended up for my family on Sunday morning.
Recipe #137: The Blooming Good Smoothie. Makes enough for 2 adults and a little person.
You will need:
► 10 nasturtium flowers
► 4 tbsp of bee pollen
► 4 tbsp of lucuma powder
► 3 tbsp of hemp seeds
► 1 tbsp of white chia seeds
► 1 tbsp of maca powder
► ½-1 tsp of turmeric powder [use fresh turmeric if you can access it]
► ½ tsp of ground cinnamon
► 1 banana, skinned
► 1 sweet orange, skin removed
► the flesh from 1 young coconut
► a handful of strawberries
► about 500mL of water kefir [milk kefir or drinking yoghurt would also work well]
► agave syrup, to taste
► just enough water for everything to combine to your desired consistency
Blend all ingredients, except for the agave syrup, together until completely smooth [this will take about 60 seconds at speed 8-10 in a Thermomix]. Taste and adjust the sweetness with agave syrup if needed, then blend for another 10 seconds. Serve topped with a nasturtium flower.
Don't fret if you don't have all of the ingredients listed here. This recipe literally resulted from a 5 minute consultation with my fridge and pantry, and I encourage you to do the same. For example, if you do not have bee pollen, use honey, yacon syrup or coconut syrup. Use a handful of sunflower seeds instead of the hemp seeds. No maca? Leave it out. So long as you are using raw/whole/organic ingredients with low processing, the end result will be superb and supremely good for you.
All of this has awakened me to the fact that we are constantly surrounded by nutritious and even medicinal plants without necessarily being aware of it. Take a few moments to notice the plants growing in your garden or on your verge. You may be harbouring a superfood without even realising it.

Guest Post 5: The Hangover
Today's guest post comes courtesy of Pauline, a friend who has selflessly put her sobriety on the line to test out hangover remedies just for you, and all in the name of research [thanks, Pauline!].
I am sure you will enjoy her post, and maybe even take away a few useful tips.
The Hangover: hangover tips
or "Have you ever experienced a fabulous night out but paid the price the next day?"
by guest blogger Pauline Tarrant
Planning the big night out. As well as choosing what to do, where to go and what to wear an important choice is how to avoid the big hangover.
Preparing for a big night out is sometimes like preparing for a triathlon: the body is about to go through a multitude of challenges and the first step is to get hydrated. If you are not the person who remembers to drink a glass of water with every alcoholic drink getting hydrated before you go out is a good option.
If drinking lots of water isn't your thing, then milk can help 'line the stomach' (as my dad says). My friends and I tried this many times with a good level of success.
Attacking the hangover. So here are the Top 4 Rescues counted down, and how they help your body:
4th place: Marmite. Marmite contains salt, which is important to help retain the fluids you have left in your body and it is a great source of vitamin B12. B vitamins are important in the fight against the Big H. Of course you may be more familiar with Vegemite but, following many trials, Marmite seems to give the best hangover relief. The B vitamins can also be replaced by Berocca – which is also great, as this ensures you are getting fluids in too!
3rd place: Bach Rescue Remedy.. In my youth I spent many a morning working in a kitchen. Luckily my boss was into natural remedies and used to give me this. The alcohol solution gives you a small 'hair of the dog' fix while the flower essence gives you reassurance [it reassured me that I could survive the full shift!].
2nd place: Peppermint or Ginger Tea.. Both tick some critical boxes including rehydration, soothing nausea and indigestion. Ginger also has pain reliveing properties that should help the headache. Ginseng tea is also reported to have similar positive effects but I have not tested this.
1st place: Strawberries. Strawberries offer a tasty way of replacing the vitamins destroyed by alcohol and are so juicy helping to replace vital fluid levels! More good news for this yummy berry is that it can also act as a preventative hangover measure. If you don't have strawberries on hand, bananas are also another great cure.
Smoothie magic. Even more effective than the Top 4 Rescues, the best cure I have found was recommended to me during a stay at Samudra in Dunsborough: chlorella. Just in case you can't get chlorella in tablet form you can make an awesome smoothie, this is especially good if you are off for the second night in a row and need an energy boost as well as hangover cure and a boost to fluid levels!
>Note from Hannah: for a basic overview of chlorella's properties and benefits, you can do a quick google or follow this link.
Recipe #128: Chlorella Smoothie.
Pop into your blender or Thermomix the following ingredients:
► 1 frozen banana
► a small handful of berries
► ½ tsp chlorella
► ½ tsp spirulina
► 1 tsp cacao powder
► 1 tsp maca powder
► 1 tsp acai powder
► 1 glass fortified soy, rice or oat milk
► 1 tbsp honey
Put the blender on high (or speed 8 on the Thermomix) for 1 minute, pressing the Turbo button from time to time.
The drink is enough for two so you can share with a friend or save some for the morning after. When you have tried the smoothie a few times, try slowly increasing the chlorella to maximize the effectiveness of this superfood!
[DISCLAIMER: This article is designed for people going out on a reasonably big session – not an all day, all night party. Sleep might be the only way to help recover from that!]

Herbal infusions
As I write this post, I find myself in the final hours of this year's Dry July, taking slow sips from a cup of my favourite herbal tea.
Herbal teas are not teas in the truest sense, as they contain no actual tea leaves, hence I believe a more apt description for such brews is 'herbal infusions'. The recipe to follow is my latest and favourite blend and, aside from its great taste, it is inherently medicinal.
Recipe #118: Hannah's invigorating immunity infusion. Health information for the following herbs comes from The Herb Companion, The A 2 Z of Health, Beauty and Fitness and Home Remedies Web.
You will need:
► 25g mint | There are many different varieties of mint, which has long been employed for its digestive and antifungal properties.
► 25g licorice | Licorice is used to support digestion, respiration and immunity, as an anti-inflammatory, and as a hormone-balancer – and it is said to assist a plethora of specific ailments. I love its delicately sweet flavour.
► 15g astragalus root | I hadn't even heard of astragalus until David Wolfe introduced me to it at the Samudra raw food retreat earlier this year. This incredible herb is a powerful antioxidant with antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and diuretic properties, and it is known for building immunity, fighting fatigue and supporting tissue regeneration.
► 10g fennel seeds | Fennel is packed with antioxidants. Aside from treating bad breath and stomach problems, fennel seeds can be used to soothe the upper respiratory congestion – and it is used as a treatment for flatulence.
► 10g basil | I'm not going to use the phrase "packed with antioxidants" again because I am finding that basically every herb is – so take it as a given for everything on this ingredient list. The eugenol in basil makes it especially good for treating arthritis, it aids digestion, and its antiviral/antibacterial properties make it ideal for treating respiratory infections. And its high magnesium content means that it assists good blood flow.
► 10g stinging nettle | This herb is high in iron, and it acts as a diuretic and blood purifier. It stimulates circulation and is great for your skin.
To make the infusion, combine all ingredients together well and store in an airtight container.
To prepare the tea, I use a stainless steel teapot. I place two teaspoonfuls of the herb blend into the strainer then pour over a little cold water to wet the herbs. I bring a kettle almost to the boil, stopping the process when I feel that the side of the kettle is hot to the touch. I feel that it gives better results if you don't use absolutely boiling water.
I sourced most of my ingredients from The Herb+Spice+Tea Shop, a little Fremantle Markets stall crammed full of jars with exciting innards. I already had a store of stinging nettle in my pantry, thanks to a months-ago shopping expedition to Kakulas Brothers in Northbridge.
I hope you enjoy this refreshing tea, and that it leaves you feeling loved from within.
Edible soap
I feel more than a little guilty because I have sat on this recipe for about 7 months, and I know it could help others in the same way that it helped me.
There was a time when my skin was so bad that I could not use any pre-made preparation on it at all. Soap, soap substitutes and moisturisers all made me itch painfully and uncontrollably. I literally spent hundreds of dollars on products that only worsened the problem.
In desperation, I turned to my pantry and made my own 'soap' using food products and Mac – and my experiment paid off. I created a soap alternative that soothed and moisturised my skin at the same time.
The recipe I am about to share does not include any soap (usually tallow, lye and other nasties). I guess that makes it 'unsoap'. Each ingredient (raw, organic) was hand-picked, based on my limited knowledge of its properties. This makes my unsoap 100% edible and, although it tastes pretty good, I prefer to use it on my body.
Recipe #115: Beauty bar. Makes 2 x 150g bars. I used Mac, my Thermomix, but you could equally use a double-boiler and a whisk.
You will need:
► 50g cacao butter | promoted skin elasticity and healing as it is high in Vitamin E and antioxidants
► 50g coconut oil | a known antifungal and antibacterial agent used, amongst other things, to treat skin problems
► 100g honeycomb | antibacterial, antimicrobial and antifungal, and even purported to have anticancer properties. Honey and beeswax are also humectants, which means that they attract water
► 75g oat flour | to soothe the skin. The oat flour is an anti-irritant and anti-inflammatory, and makes the unsoap milky on your skin as it melts
► 15g macadamia oil | an emollient that helps to soften skin, which is awesome for dry and ageing skin
► 10g avocado oil | rich in essential oils and sterolins, avocado is excellent for your skin
► 1 vanilla pod, chopped into small pieces | I have to confess to including the vanilla pod because I had some prescraped pods (I used the seeds in other recipes). Aside from making the mix smell delightful, vanilla nourishes the skin and the pod itself acts as a mild exfoliant.
Place all ingredients, except for the oat flour, into your Thermomix and stir on speed 1 for 5 mins at 37°C…
…until you get this:
Add the oat flour, then blend everything together for 1 minute on speed 3. Pour your mixture into bar-shaped moulds and set in the freezer for at least half an hour.
Chop your unsoap bars into single-use slices and store in the fridge or freezer. If you don't keep the soap cool, you risk finding a melted mess when you next go to use it – and it is absolutely fine to use your unsoap that way too.
Although there are no preservatives in the recipe, your unsoap contains multiple antifungal, antibacterial and antimicrobial agents, and it will last for months if refrigerated.
This may seem an expensive recipe but, when you have tried everything (and everything includes very, ridiculously expensive creams), sometimes a little love is all you need. Your skin will feel waxy after using your unsoap in the bath or shower, however the natural oils do soak into your skin as it dries and cools.
As always, I would love to know if you try this out for yourself.
Have an awesome week!
C is for Cruciferous
'C' was going to stand for cauliflower, then I got carried away and put cabbage and broccoli into the mix – and ended up with a superbly good-for-you cruciferous salad.
Cruciferous vegetables, which also include bok choy, radishes and kale, are cancer busters; the phytochemicals in these vegetables stimulate the breakdown of potential carcinogens, as well as being great for your body in many other ways.
Broccoli, for example, is antiviral, antiulcer and a good source of vitamin C, folate, beta carotene and calcium.
Recipe #111: Cruciferous salad with avocado mayonnaise.
You will need – for the salad:
► 1 big clove of garlic
► 1 small handful of flatleaf parsley
► ½ head of cauliflower
► ¼ large savoy or Chinese cabbage
► 1 head of broccoli
► ½ tsp salt
Chop all ingredients finely by pulsing a food processor, Thermomix or really good blender. Alternatively, you could spend a few minutes chopping everything with a sharp knife.
You will need – for the mayonnaise:
► 1 small clove of garlic
► juice of 1 lemon
► 1 avocado
► 1 tbsp honey
► 1 good swirl of olive oil
► 1 cup cashews, soaked in cold water for at least an hour
► salt, to taste
Strain the soaking water from the cashews and process/blend all ingredients together until smooth > add some fresh water if it doesn't process easily. Taste, then add more salt, lemon juice or olive oil if needed.
You will end up with a tangy spread that tastes similar to mayonnaise, but with added goodness.
If you don't like the thought of eating this meal by itself, the salad and mayonnaise can be eaten as a side dish or used in wraps with other fillings, like greens, sundried tomato, red onion, beetroot salad and chilli.
Smoodgy coconut balls
This is a delicious 3-ingredient recipe inspired by Fremantle's The Raw Kitchen [once again!] and it takes less than a minute to make in a Thermomix!
Well, it does take a few extra minutes to roll the mixture, but 1 minute of prep time is nothing to sneeze at. If you have littlies, it also happens to be fun and easy for toddlers to roll and eat.
Did I mention it's also healthy? I probably should, so here's a quick treatise on the benefits of each of the ingredients. [Sources, all accessed 3 September 2010: Organic Cashew Nuts; Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific); Coconut Research Center; Really Raw Honey; AvianWeb.]
Raw cashews. Cashews are a great source of B vitamins, vitamin E, magnesium, manganese, copper, selenium, zinc, iron, chromium, monounsaturated fats, antioxidants, dietary fibre. This means they are good for your heart, skin and hair, teeth and bones, muscles, brain and immunity.
Raw coconut. What does coconut not do? It is an effective antifungal and antibacterial agent used in traditional medicine to treat a litany of illnesses, including asthma, bowel problems, liver disease, kidney stones, skin problems and typhoid.
In spite of being high in saturated fat, coconut is effective in treating obesity and weight issues by increasing the metabolic rate – so you don't have to suffer a guilt trip every time you eat it. It really is amazing stuff.
Raw honey. Raw is the only way to reap the health benefits of honey. Processed honey is pasteurised (super-heated), which kills off most of the goodness. To borrow a line from Natural Health Ezine:
Raw honey contains 27 minerals, 22 amino acids and 5,000 live enzymes. It keeps you healthy by fighting disease and boosting the digestive system.
It is antibacterial, antimicrobial and antifungal, and even purported to have anticancer properties. Honey is also a humectant, which means that it attracts water. This makes it ideal for topical application to the skin for burns, ulcers and dryness.
Recipe #108: Smoodgy coconut balls. Makes 16+. I recommend using a food processor or Thermomix to make these.
You will need:
► 280g raw cashews [or cashew pieces]
► 280g raw coconut, dessicated
► 190g raw honey
Start by grinding the cashews into meal > this takes up to 15 seconds in the TM on speed 7.
Next, add the coconut to the cashew meal in the processor/TM and grind together (in the TM, this is will take up to 10 seconds) and check the result. If you think it could be finer, pulse the mixture a few times and check again.
Finally, add the honey to the processor/TM and mix (TM: speed 5 for up to 30 seconds). And voila – you have a white version of the pastry mixture from my pretty little raw petit fours!
Take heaped teaspoonfuls of mixture and form into balls. I roll these around on the chopping board to make them extra smooth. From here, you can either serve the slightly squishy balls immediately, or you can chill them for an hour.
I like to eat mine chilled, then in slices; it makes me feel just a little more dainty and ladylike.
I think that next time I will roll these in some black sesame seeds for a cool black-and-white effect.
It's all about the chocolate, Part 3
I am a little bit in love with myself right now [yes, again, I know!]. I made raw chocolate from scratch and, while I still have much to learn, it is very, very good.
Here's how I did it, and my method is very simple to replicate. With no sugar, gluten or dairy (or other animal products) in this recipe, my chocolate is suitable for vegans and coeliacs :)
Recipe #92: Raw chocolate. All of my ingredients were raw and organic. Note that the methods for batches 1 & 2 are detailed for illustration purposes only and should be avoided if one is serious about making smooth and very delicious chocolate.
Setting up:
► Buy a packet of teeny tiny chocolate cups and set them up on a large platter or two. You'll need around 55 cups for this recipe.
► Clear a space in the fridge that is big enough for the platter(s). Make sure that the door compartments (or anything else) does not butt into this space when you close the fridge door.
► (optional) Place a thin layer of chewy/crunchy bits in the bottom of each cup to add texture to your chocolates. I used goji berries, crushed macadamia nuts and bee pollen.
The ingredients:
► 170g cacao butter
► 10g coconut butter
► seeds of 1 vanilla pod [split the pod, then scrape the seeds from the middle with a sharp knife]
► 95g agave syrup [or you could use honey]
► good pinch salt
► 1 heaped tbsp maca powder [Maca Magic and Fran's experience give more information and different viewpoints on this supplement/superfood]
► 120g cacao powder [or, if you prefer a more "milk chocolate" flavour, use around half of this amount]
These ingredients are fairly pricy – I spent $34.95 on 500g cacao butter and $19.95 on cacao powder alone – so I would recommend shopping online. I am just about to start using Raw Power and Loving Earth for my supplies.
Prepare the cacao butter by chopping it into little pieces. This will help it to melt faster.
The methods:
► Batch #1 – Melt the fats in the Thermomix, followed by everything else.
When I sourced the ingredients for my raw chocolate, at first blush I was struck by how expensive it is. This is especially true if you seize your chocolate, as I did for Batch #1. My Thermomix theory was sound, I think, but it took me forever (20 minutes) to melt the cacao butter, coconut oil, salt and vanilla at 37°C. I sifted in the maca and cacao powders, added some agave syrup, mixed it all up, and all went swimmingly [see the "before" photo, below] – until I decided that my chocolate needed a touch more sweetness.
Adding that smidgeon more agave syrup (or it could have been a drop of moisture from the Thermomix lid) was the seizing point and the point at which I became very miffed at myself for about half an hour. I tried to revive my grainy mess with more coconut oil; alas, it was a lost cause.
With two ziplock bags full of tasty but seemingly useless brown sludge, I continued on to Batch #2.
► Batch #2 – Everything in the Thermomix together, a method inspired by this post in the Quirky Cooking blog.
This didn't work so well on account of the fact that cacao butter is very hard, not easy to cut through like coconut butter/oil. My Thermomix [incidentally, his name is Mac] got a little caught up in the slow meltage of ingredients and had to stop for a break every few seconds. After about 5 minutes of stop-starting, I poured everything into a double-boiler and whisked vigorously as I melted the mixture down the good old fashioned way.
The end result wasn't bad. The chocolate was airy and not as smooth as I would have liked, but I really liked the flavour, particularly with the goji berries.
Knowing that I could and would do better, I looked to Batch #3 for results.
► Batch #3 – Slow addition ingredients over a double-boiler. Proven method. Awesome result.
I melted the fats with the agave syrup, salt and vanilla over a double-boiler. When this was well and truly melted, I sifted in the cacao and maca powders a little at a time, whisking vigorously and constantly scraping the remnants from around the edge of the bowl. The end result was smooth and delicious.
Setting the chocolate:
I used a dessert spoon to fill the tiny chocolate cups, then I placed the tray of chocolate into the fridge for around 30 minutes to set. I am storing the chocolate in layers separated by baking paper.
Next time, I will make my chocolate with cacao butter alone. I just know Batch #4 will be brilliant; check in with me again soon for a refined recipe!
…and what of my seized chocolate (Batch #1)? That's definitely not going to waste. You'll have to read my next chocolate post to find out how that chapter ends!
For my earlier adventures in chocolate, look to:
- It's all about the chocolate, Part 1
- It's all about the chocolate, Part 2
- 10 things you can do with ganache
- The third way I like to eat Nutella
Thus continues my penchant for raw chocolate, which is full of tryptophan, antioxidants and a host of lovely minerals (like magnesium, calcium and zinc).
I had so much fun running my latest chocolate experiments. Thanks for reading – and I hope you are sufficiently inspired to make your very own chocolate!

(Updates with comments on election in sixth-eighth paragraphs.)
Oct. 5 (Bloomberg) -- White House Chief of Staff William Daley said the administration expects the U.S. will avoid falling into another recession even as the debt crisis in Europe remains "of great concern."
"We're very concerned about the possibility, but the expectations as of right now is that we would not see a double dip," Daley said at a forum in Washington sponsored by the Aspen Institute and the Atlantic magazine.
President Barack Obama is in close contact with his European counterparts, and "the expectation is that they will take action to prevent serious negative results" for the global economy, Daley said.
He said the president's $447 billion package of tax cuts and spending aimed at spurring hiring will help create "some buffer" for the U.S. economy as growth remains sluggish. It's clear that the forecasts for economic expansion that were made at the start of this year "are not going to be fulfilled," Daley said.
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said yesterday the central bank can take further steps to sustain a recovery that is "close to faltering."
The state of the economy means Obama will face a "very tough and close election" in 2012, Daley said. He called the political sentiment in the country "extremely volatile" and criticized Republican lawmakers, who he said have take a "hard- line position of 'no,'" to anything Obama proposes.
Potential Challengers
He refused to say who among the candidates for the Republican presidential nomination would be the toughest opponent for Obama.
"Whoever the Republican Party nominates will be a formidable candidate because the nation is very divided," he said.
The Standard & Poor's 500 Index climbed 1.8 percent to 1,144.03 at 4:30 p.m. in New York, adding to yesterday's 2.3 percent surge. Reports depicting faster-than-forecast growth in payrolls and service industries and rising fuel demand tempered concern the economic recovery was in jeopardy.

Needs Assessment for Acute Care Hospital
- 1Apr 17, '07 by lcprncI work as an Organizational Education Coordinator for a local acute care hospital and need to develop a "Needs Assessment" survey tool for the entire nursing staff. Is there anyone out there who has this tool and is wiling to share? I would greatly appreciate it so it would save me time and wouldn't have to re-invent the wheel.
Thank you very much in advance if you can help me out.
- 1Apr 18, '07 by nmjerniganI have one that I just sent out for all staff. Send me a private message and I will send you a copy.Last edit by sirI on Apr 18, '07 : Reason: edit personal information - members may contact via private message
- 0Oct 26, '07 by classicdame GuideJust remember that staff will have a different interpretation for the word "need". Need really is CPR and whatever your state and governing bodies declare a nurse must have. The rest is "nice to have". You can spend a lot of time and money creating courses for nice to haves that are not needed. Be sure to make your plan coincide with the business goals of the hospital. I stay in touch with the Quality dept to see what trends there are - such as what types of med errors. JCAHO patient safety goals is a good outline for "needs" too.
- 1Dec 1, '07 by lcprncQuote from coceAs the saying goes, "You can lead them to the water but you can;t make them drink." The best way, in my opinion, is to make the training "mandatory." You'll need your administration's support on this. If it's a class, let's say, CPR/BLS, then they sign up but don;t show up, I would suggest having them write a check to reserve their spot. If they show up, give them back the check. If they don't, then cash the check (of course, make chack out to your facility, not to you personally).Can anyone email me a copy of the educational needs assessment? Also, does anyone have an opinion survey on how to get staff to show up for training sessions?
- 0Dec 7, '07 by suniI also have difficulty getting staff to show up for in-services. It is really disappointing and embarassing when I have an outside speaker and no one comes! I will say if they think there are freebies like pens or penlights etc they come! How sad they are more interested in stuff then ed.
I continue to plug away but today was a discouraging day.

The speaker of the state House and a group that promotes conservative pro-family views claims an applicant for the Independent Redistricting Commission was disqualified because of his Christian beliefs.
House Speaker Kirk Adams, R-Mesa, said Monday the only comment made last week about the nomination of Tucsonan Christopher Gleason to the commission was by one screening panel member who pointed to Gleason's involvement with a Christian organization. That panelist, Louis Araneta, an attorney and former judge, questioned whether Gleason could separate issues of church and state.
Adams said those comments were wrong.
"People of faith have just as much right to the public arena as people without faith, or without a specific faith," he said. "We should not be sending a message to people of faith that we don't want you in the public arena because you simply can't handle the separation of church and state."
Adams said none of the other panelists objected to what Araneta said.
Cathi Herrod, president of the Center for Arizona Policy, said a greater concern is that the panel which is screening applicants for the commission is the same one that nominates judges for the Arizona Supreme Court and the state Court of Appeals.
"It's deeply disturbing that those individuals charged with selecting judges would say that faith in Jesus Christ is a disqualification for public service," she said.
State law directs the redistricting commission to draw lines for congressional and legislative districts, giving them great power to determine the political makeup of the Legislature and the state's congressional delegation.
The commission is composed of two Democrats, two Republicans and an independent. The partisan members are selected by elected party officials; the four commissioners then choose the fifth.
Last week the screening panel met to pare down the list of applicants to 10 Democrats, 10 Republicans and five independents. Gleason, a Republican, did not make the list.
Herrod said the vote came after Araneta's comment - a comment to which other panel members did not object.
"Religious discrimination is alive and well in this country," Herrod said.
Araneta did not return repeated calls seeking comment.
But Dewey Schade, a Scottsdale Republican who sits on the screening panel, said the decision not to nominate Gleason had nothing to do with religion. He said the panel simply had to pare the list of 15 Republicans they chose to interview down to 10.
"Given that pool, he was not in the top 10 candidates, no more and no less than that," Schade said. "It's no reflection of the person's religion or beliefs."
Suzanne Ballard, another member of the screening panel, also denied omitting Gleason from the list was based on religion.
Adams said if there was another reason for omitting Gleason from the list, commissioners should say so.
In his application, Gleason said his civic activities include involvement in 4-Tucson, part of Vision 360 for Tucson. He said the goal of the organization is "to serve as a catalyst to engage the Christian community in the needs and dreams of Tucson to bring about spiritual renewal and prosperity to the glory of God" to make Tucson one of the most liveable cities in the world.
Gleason said those words came directly from the organization's mission statement.
Adams said he wants the commission to reconsider its vote.
Gleason said he does not want the debate to be about him. But he echoed Herrod's concerns about whether the panel members make similar decisions in choosing judges.
"If this is what the (screening) commission is doing on a non-judicial appointment, what are they doing with judicial appointments?" Gleason asked. "Is there some sort of a non-religious litmus test, or non-faith litmus test for judicial appointments?"
An aide to Arizona Supreme Court Chief Justice Rebecca Berch, who chairs the screening panel, said Monday she was out of the country and could not comment on either Araneta's statement or the vote.

BEEKMANTOWN - A popular northern New York welcome center is shutting down as a result of New York's ongoing fiscal crisis.
The "I Love New York" Gateway Welcome Information Center - located in the town of Beekmantown near the Canadian border -will be closed to the public until further notice.
Ron Ofner, executive director of the Adirondack Regional Tourism Council -the organization that operates the center - noted the facility has welcomed millions of visitors to New York and the Adirondack region since opening nearly two decades ago.
The state pulled funding for the center in its budget for fiscal year 2010, Ofner said.
"We haven't had a contract to operate that facility since April 1 of this year," he said. "We've been operating the center very judiciously with our own funds. We've reduced staff, we've reduced hours of operation -we've basically been holding out for any kind of funding from the state."
Ofner said the welcome center is the first facility visitors from Canada see when they cross the border. In fact, he noted some 90 percent of people who stop at the facility are Canadian.
Having nothing there to greet those travelers is not a good way to leave an impression, Ofner said. But, the real benefit of the welcome center has been its marketing of the Adirondack region, he added.
"We have an opportunity to steer them in the direction to visit various destinations in the Adirondack region," he said. "In particular, Plattsburgh, Lake Placid, Lake George, different campgrounds, things for children, historic sites - by not having that open we miss that opportunity. People will just sort of sail right through our area and not have the potential to spend some money with us."
Officials note record numbers of Canadians are visiting New York, largely due to a favorable exchange rate.

How old do active tradelines need to be in order to finance a home? I was told by a lender 1 yr. Is this correct? I have one opened in Oct, 2 more this month. All CCs. I have no other debt and pay these off monthly after a 10% utilization.
My lease is up in May, two yrs with no lates.
Scores are 715 TU with a judgement I will have satisfied this month.
Judgement not reported on EQ, 761 score.
These are reported on myFico.com
Ex fako of 743.
I have no installment loans. Cars are paid in cash.
I do have positive past tradelines. My CR shows my oldest account at 13yrs, average age 9yrs. Does this help at all, if they are closed? On my CR they say current status as "pays as agrees." Some I remember closing when I was younger, others I do not. Descriptions include "closed or paid account/zero balance" or "account closed by consumer." Some just say CC in the description. 4 are paid student loans.
10 accounts, 1 with a balance (my two new this month of course are not reflected yet).
One shows two 30 day lates 2 1/2 years ago(this is the only flag on my report), which is weird because I haven't utilized a CC since at least 2005. The balance shows 0 now, and I don't want to mess with anything as my scores aren't terrible.
Can I be financed?

The commercial area surrounding SR 9 and SR 204 is an important business center for the community for goods and services and providing an economic base for City services. This district is referred to as the Lake Stevens Center and also known as the Frontier Village area.
In 2010, the City completed a citywide economic study with this district being one of two key focus points to identify what are the community's needs being provided and what is missing.
This leads to the next phase to develop a subarea plan for the area. The subarea plan will develop a long range plan for how the Lake Stevens Center can develop and re-develop to better meet those community needs and vision.
An element of the subarea plan includes mobility for motorized and non-motorized circulation in the Lake Stevens Center.
If you have driven, walked or biked in the area, you know that this can be quite challenging and for those not familiar, a very confusing experience.
While the subarea plan is largely focused on a long range horizon, there is a need to make immediate changes to address transportation circulation for the current conditions in the Lake Stevens Center.
To meet this need, the City is including a short term transportation circulation plan to the subarea plan.
The short term plan will consist mostly of improvements that are low cost, such as pavement markings and directional signs.
The City is seeking public input in the development of the short and potential long term transportation circulation plan for the Lake Stevens Center and will be hosting a public open house on April 21 at the Lake Stevens Community Center, 1808 Main Street, between 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.
The public is invited to share their ideas, offer suggestions, and to view some ideas under consideration.
It is hoped that some of the possible solutions can be considered for implementation in 2011. Information on the upcoming meeting and following information will be provided on the City's web site at http://www.ci.lake-stevens.wa.us/SubareaPlanning.htm.

Have you tried their support? magicJack - Tech Chat Knowledgebase/FAQ
It sounds like that killing the process isn't sufficient enough to signal to 7 that device is 'done', so as far as 7 is concerned it's still 'active', hence the crash.
That didn't make sense, so I tried it "again" and stopped the process and rebooting did make the error go away. I have tried a whole bunch of stuff over the last few days, including stopping the process a few times, but I may not have rebooted right after, because that does have the same effect as unplugging the device.

As we enter into yet another new year, I like to reflect on the past as well as take a sneak peek into the future. Of course we can't tell what's in store before it happens, but we can somewhat assume, at least in the crochet world.

It seems as though cute crochet scarf patterns are all around us these days and they're not just for the winter anymore.
When we were kids we would get wrapped up in bulky crochet scarves and warm winter coats before we went outside to play in the snow. Nowadays you will see people walking in the park during the summer with these fabulously bright and amazing scarves in multiple crochet colors. Easy crochet scarves, or any scarves for that matter can be worked up in either bulky heavy yarns or thin and lacy yarns. In any case, we've put together a list of our favorites, and hopefully yours, of crochet scarf designs and cute crochet scarf patterns. You will easily find what you're looking for as we've divided them into seasons! Make one for every season in all the crochet colors you want.

Summer Scarf Crochet Patterns
Sporting summer scarf crochet patterns can get a little tricky, especially if you live somewhere where the temperature reaches a high number. Cute crochet scarf patterns for the summer are best when worked up with super fine, light or lacy yarns.
The Dainty Green Scarf uses Naturally Caron Spa yarn in a green sheen color, but again, you can use any color that suits you best. Crochet scarf designs like this are chic and modern and will never go out of style. Pair this scarf with a nice top and dress pants for the office or a tank top and cute jeans for a night out.

Morphism of varieties
In algebraic geometry, a regular map between affine varieties is a mapping which is given by polynomials. To be explicit, suppose X and Y are subvarieties (or algebraic subsets) of An resp. Am. A regular map f from X to Y has the form where the are in , I the ideal defining X, so that the image lies in Y; i.e., satisfying the defining equations of Y. [1]
More generally, a map ƒ:X→Y between two varieties is regular at a point x if there is a neighbourhood U of x and a neighbourhood V of ƒ(x) such that the restricted function ƒ:U→V is regular as a function on the coordinate patches of U and V. Then ƒ is called regular, if it is regular at all points of X.
A morphism between varieties is necessarily continuous.
In the particular case that Y equals A1 the map ƒ:X→A1 is called a regular function, and correspond to scalar functions in differential geometry. In other words, a scalar function is regular at a point x if, in a neighborhood of x, it is a rational function (i.e., a fraction of polynomials) such that the denominator does not vanish at x. The ring of regular functions (that is the coordinate ring or more abstractly the ring of global sections of the structure sheaf) is a fundamental object in affine algebraic geometry. The only regular function on a connected projective variety is constant (this can be viewed as an algebraic analogue of Liouville's theorem in complex analysis); thus, in the projective case, one usually considers the global sections of a line bundle (or divisor) instead.
In fact taking the function field k(V) of an irreducible algebraic curve V, the functions F in the function field may all be realised as morphisms from V to the projective line over k. The image will either be a single point, or the whole projective line (this is a consequence of the completeness of projective varieties). That is, unless F is actually constant, we have to attribute to F the value ∞ at some points of V. Now in some sense F is no worse behaved at those points than anywhere else: ∞ is just the chosen point at infinity on the projective line, and by using a Möbius transformation we can move it anywhere we wish. But it is in some way inadequate to the needs of geometry to use only the affine line as target for functions, since we shall end up only with constants.
Regular maps are, by definition, morphisms in the category of algebraic varieties. In particular, a regular map between affine varieties corresponds contravariantly in one-to-one to a ring homomorphism between the coordinate rings.
A regular map whose inverse is also regular is called biregular, and are isomorphisms in the category of algebraic varieties. A morphism between algebraic varieties that is a homeomorphism between the underlying topological spaces need not be an isomorphism (a counterexample is given by a Frobenius morphism .) On the other hand, if f is bijective birational and the target space of f is a normal variety, then f is biregular. (cf. Zariski's main theorem.)
Because regular and biregular are very restrictive conditions – there are no non-constant regular functions on projective space – the weaker condition of a rational map and birational maps are frequently used as well.
If f is a morphism between varieties, then the image of f contains an open dense subset of its closure. (cf. constructible set.)
A regular map between complex algebraic varieties is a holomorphic map. (There is actually a slight technical difference: a regular map is a holomorphic map with removable singularities, but the distinction is usually ignored in practice.) In particular, a regular map into the complex numbers is just a usual holomorphic function (complex-analytic function).
