christopher Lowell has a great book on interior design for double wide homes called You Can Do It Small Space potter press..
If you have any interior design needs for a double wide check it out..it is really great |
Follow-Up Postings:
Thanks! We are thinking of manufactured housing for our retirement, so I will definitely look into this. Thanks for posting this. |
it is really a cool book, you might want to check it out before you buy, as it has some room specific ideas that are quite fascinating. My husband and i are retired and have a large double wide and we love it..there are always a few problems with manufactured housing, but we are settled into being happy with ours now after a few headaches.. most are mentioned in other posts on this site, like cracks in drywall. ours is a rather large doublewide at 2040 sq ft..one of my favorite parts is that the family room is a long way from the living room and then entry way..hubby claimed family room for himself and half the time he is sleeping in there or watching t v..and he has a head injury, so it is best that he be out of the public stream..and he is. ours also has guest quarters on opposite end of master ..which is great if you have guests..more private..we had my mom stay with us for several months..and it was a blessing. i had 3 priorities for a home when ours burned..sadly i got none of them. i wanted all windows to tip in to clean..only bottoms do. think of your priorities when you shop and don't let hubby talk you out of them..like i did. |

Ronbre, did you ever get a freezer? We are moving into a 28x60 DW next week (god willing the lawyers get their act together). We have a 4 ft.+ upright freezer and the only place we can mentally place it is in the laundry room with stackable W/D and removal of cabinets. Did you, or anyone else here, find an alternative place for the freezer? It won't fit in the kitchen without blocking a window and sticking out into the breakfast area. Rest of the house is carpeted, but there could be room in the gigantic second bedroom which will be used for crafts, office, etc. PS - I still have your living room in my dream file and am using it for furniture and lamp placement ideas. Just bought a couch and chair and a huge ent. center for the big blank wall, |
I am impressed that double wides have a better, more modern floor plan than "stick built". Plus, they may well be built better. The trouble is their public perception and the old time cheapness....this will stick for a long, long time. We were looking at a 24 x 42, on a decent basement on a Bowers Bridge property..in Manchester ..All the rooms were too small...laundry room in the basement.. |

I actually also look for interior design ideas on the web and fortunately I can see many of them. I then get tips and advices from sites so I can apply them when designing homes. These kinds of sites really help me in deciding what kind of design should I implementing on houses. |

I love to cook. I do.
There is almost a zen-like quality to starting with fresh ingredients and mixing, stirring, sautéing things and finally serving something amazing and delightful to the palate. But that doesn't mean that I'm a slave to food fashion.
More than liking to cook, I just love to eat.
So I have some really simple and delicious go-to meals. This is one of my favorites, because it just requires collecting the ingredients, slicing up a few things and … ahem … opening cans.
Yes, that's right. Cans. (Don't judge me.)
The Cuban word for "can" is "lata."
And, after all…
I am Latina! =D
Easy Tortilla Soup
-2 cans chicken broth (or about 28 oz.'s)
-2 cans diced tomatoes (I usually like the ones with onions & peppers added.)
-1 small can diced green chiles (I like mild, but this is according to personal taste.)
-1 can black beans
-1 fully cooked roasted chicken (the kind you can pick up at the grocery store)
-1 can of corn
-Tortilla strips
-Sliced avocados
-Grated jack and cheddar cheeses
-Slices of lime
-Sour cream
1. Take chicken apart (easiest to do it while it's still warm and just use your fingers) into bite-size pieces.
2. Open all cans and place contents into a large pot.
3. Stir in chicken pieces and heat through.
4. Set out assorted garnishes and let everyone add to their soup according to their personal tastes.
I know you're skeptical about the can thing, but once again, you'll just have to trust me.
You can thank me later. ;-)

Sulphur and Sodium Inputs from Rainfall in Relation to Proximity of Sites from the Coast in Peninsular Malaysia
Hussin, Aminuddin (1995) Sulphur and Sodium Inputs from Rainfall in Relation to Proximity of Sites from the Coast in Peninsular Malaysia. Pertanika Journal of Tropical Agricultural Science, 18 (1). pp. 9-13. ISSN 0126-6128
975Kb |
Sulphur (S) and Sodium (Na)accessions through rainfall at sites of varying distances from the coast in Peninsular Malaysia were monitored. Result indicate that S accessions was of anthrophogenic and marine origin, with S deposition at site in the central and south transects being influenced more by industrial activities. Na accessions was related to the monsoons, with sites on the east coast having high accumulations during the northeast monsoon, and site on the west coast during the southwest monsoon. Na:S ratio was lower than their ratio in sea water indicating that S accession was from anthropogenic and terrestial origins.

Shell knowledge contest is over!
At the last minute it turned out that projector for displaying slides was not available. We worked around this by retranslating slides on several participants' personal netbooks (which was a very good idea, worth remembering). I generated two sets of slides, one with an answer slide after each question slide (for displaying on my laptop) and one without answers for displaying on participants' netbooks, so that an answer could not be revealed (intentionally or not) too early.
Slides (questions+answers, 20 of them) are available, so you can try to answer the questions yourself. They are in Russian, but the essential part is the shell code, whose output or effect you need to predict, and the answers. If there is some demand I could translate them to English completely.
There were two leaders, Evgeniy Berkovich and Yuriy Chumak, who gave 7 right answers. To determine the winner I used a set of additional questions about which function definitions are valid, and Yuriy Chumak won.
For me, the funniest question was the following one (#16, translated to English): what is the output of the following shell script?
f () { echo "The ambulance phone number is $13"; } f `seq 0 12`
Anyone without any knowledge of shell scripting could suppose that the answer is 03 or 103 (103 is used for the calls from mobile phones), but nobody gave the correct answer!
But in general the level of shell knowledge was higher than I expected, for almost all questions (except 1 or 2) there was at least one correct answer.
Some links to other people's impressions (in Russian):
Thanks to all who participated!

I just received this new product from KA this morning. It looks fantastic! I saw it in their latest cataloge used in the crust for a pumpkin pie and knew it was going to be this T-Day's pumpkin pie.
The ingredients are: praline pumpkin seeds (sugar, pumpkin seeds, spice, salt, caramel color I'm not a candy maker. But we love pumpkin seeds for snacks and also in Mexican cuisine so they are a regular part of my food storage program. Can anybody give me some idea how to make this stuff from my own ingredients? Thanks! /tricia |
Here is a link that might be useful: Pumpkin Seed Praline Crunch
Follow-Up Postings:
Here's a recipe I found on-line: Pumpkin Seed Praline Yield: Makes 8 to 10 servings Ingredients 1 cup sugar Preparation Preheat oven to 250-degrees F. Lightly oil a large sheet of foil on a baking sheet and keep warm in oven. Cook sugar, water, and a pinch of salt in a deep 2-quart heavy saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring slowly with a metal fork, until melted and pale golden. Cook caramel without stirring, swirling pan, until deep golden. Immediately stir in pumpkin seeds and quickly pour onto foil, spreading into a thin sheet before it hardens. (If caramel hardens and is difficult to spread, put in a 400-degree F oven until warm enough to spread, 1 to 2 minutes.) Cool praline on baking sheet on a rack until completely hardened, then break into large pieces. Here's a recipe I might try based on another recipe I make using almonds and pretzel sticks... In a small microwave-safe bowl (or in a small saucepan) bring 2 T. butter, 2 T. dark brown sugar (I would use palm sugar), and 1 T. water to a boil (the original recipe also includes 1/8 t. cayenne pepper). Stir. Pour over toasted (or raw) pumpkin seeds (sorry, I don't know how many pumpkin seeds, but this recipe lightly coats 2 c. thin pretzel sticks and 1 c. almonds). Place in a single layer on a parchment paper lined baking sheet and bake in a 300-degree F oven for 15-20 minutes, stirring frequently so they don't burn. The recipe using pretzels and almonds - bakes for 20-minutes. Let us know what works for you.... :-) -Grainlady |
Thanks grainlady! I'll give your microwave recipe a try...something about that boiling sugar and swirling the pan from a wheelchair makes me nervous, lol. The microwave thing looks much safer for me and I won't have to buy this from KA again since I keep all the ingredients in STORAGE. :) /tricia |
Tricia- I made the snack mix Saturday using THIN stick pretzels and 1 c. pumpkin seeds for the almonds called for in the recipe. I also used palm sugar instead of brown sugar. The pumpkin seeds were only lightly sugar-coated and we LOVED them. Just enough sweetness to take that slightly bitter edge off the pumpkin seeds. I'm glad you asked and glad I tried it! I haven't a clue how close they are to the real deal... -Grainlady |

Teammate: Derrick Rose seems ready, but he has to believe it
BY JOE COWLEY firstname.lastname@example.com February 23, 2013 9:02PM
Injured Bulls guard Derrick Rose works out before the Chicago Bulls-Miami Heat game Thursday February 21, 2013 at the United Center . | Tom Cruze~Sun-Times
BULLS AT Thunder
The facts: 8:30, Ch. 9, ESPN, 1000-AM.
Article Extras
Updated: March 25, 2013 6:59AM
OKLAHOMA CITY — The finger quickly went up to the temple.
"I think it's up here now,'' a Bulls player said late Friday night when asked about Derrick Rose's return. "I know it's not [his heart]. We all know that, but he's ready . . . he's ready, man.
"Anyone who saw him in the [five-on-five] scrimmages [last week] knows he's ready. But it's his body, so he's gotta believe it.''
Right before the All-Star break, Rose said he needed to be 110 percent before he'd return to the court, and a big measuring stick would be regaining his patented explosive ability around the rim. Specifically, Rose said he wanted to be able to dunk off stride.
But Rose has been dunking since January, a teammate said. Maybe not off stride, but the explosion ''is just about there.''
The organization wants to stay away from making Rose feel like there's pressure to return. That was easy the first three months of the season when coach Tom Thibodeau had his players believing they could run with any team in the league, with or without Rose.
They closed out January with a 28-17 record and a 13-6 road mark that included a victory in Miami and two in New York.
The February schedule has been tougher, or maybe it's reality catching up with them. Either way, while his teammates and the organization are doing all they can to keep the spotlight off Rose's return, their 4-6 record since Feb. 1 speaks volumes.
Center Joakim Noah acknowledged that people outside the Berto Center might be questioning Rose, but he's putting his foot down — plantar fasciitis and all.
"That's my brother,'' Noah said of Rose. "I don't care what anybody says. I know how much he puts on his shoulders for the city of Chicago and for this entire organization, so I'll never question him . . . never.''
Noah understands the Bulls are a better team with Rose in the lineup, but he believes they still can win a title without him.
"I feel like we work very hard to be able to compete against everybody,'' said Noah, who still thinks Rose will return this season. "It's been an up-and-down season. We've had some great wins, some terrible losses, but we feel like if we play the right way and play to our capabilities, even without Derrick, we feel like we can make some noise, loud noise.''
Noah wasn't alone in that sentiment.
"Of course, we would love to have Derrick,'' forward/center Taj Gibson said. "He's that type of player that separates us from a lot of other teams. He's a superstar. He's one of the guys we look to late, especially if we need a big shot, a great shot. He's the guy that will step up. He's a leader. Of course, we're going to think that we need Derrick, but you never know when he's going to come back.
"I think we have enough talent [without Rose]. We've played a lot of tough teams, and when we play really good teams, for the most part, we play well. It seems when we play the lackadaisical teams, we kind of struggle because the intensity isn't always there. We're still learning in that way, but when the time comes, we'll have it down.''

My 2 week trip to Guatemala was done successfully. I could not check my email, Youtube, and my blog comments everyday. Maybe every other day when I found an internet café, I could only approve the comments, but no answer. Approving comments took about 1-2 hours. It was impossible to answer everybody's questions.
I found a few of my devoted readers answered on behalf of me! I felt wow! It made me feel a little bit emotional. I don't know how to thank you guys.
I usually focus on 3 factors when I travel to another country: food, scenery, and people. How about you?
I will ask you this. Which factor of the 3 do you think I would consider the most important factor?
I think most of you may say, "Maangchi, I know you like food, so I guess your number one priority must be to taste their local food!" If you say so, it's a wrong answer. : )
I love to meet people! I'm very interested in looking at what they wear, eat, and drink, even how they carry their heavy stuff!
You know where you can see all this in a limited time? Ooh baby, it's a market! I love to see their markets. When you go to their market, you'll be able to see all these things in one place.
I visited Antigua, San Pedro, Chichicastenango market, Guatemala City, Flores, Tikal, Coban, and Semuc Champey during my 2 week travel. My total travel hours in the country were about 50 hours, which means I traveled everyday about 4 hours. I'm confessing that you are always following me wherever I went, so I took so many photos to show you later. I'm not kissing your ass, but this is true! : )
I will blog about what I saw and experienced in 3 blog posts:
1. the food I tasted
2. the markets that I saw and shopped, and scenery photos, and
3. the people that I saw and met.
Are you interested in reading these?
Ok, this is my introduction, I will write about these soon. Stay tuned!

I'm starting to plan Sunday's dinner. I want to make scallops with
vanilla-verjus beurre blanc and a summer vegetable gratin. (The recipes are
given below.) What else would be good with this meal, if some of the diners
are trying to cut carbs? Maybe a cold carrot-ginger soup? A bowl of radishes
with coarse salt? Celery Victor?
Here are the recipes:
Caramelized Day Boat Scallops with Verjus-Vanilla Beurre Blanc
(from Saveur Magazine Fall 2004)
Serves 6
2 pounds day-boat scallops
Sprinkle scallops with salt and sear in hot, almost smoking, sauté pan until
golden brown on each side, approximately 2 minutes on each side. Serve with
verjus-vanilla beurre blanc.
Verjus-Vanilla Beurre Blanc:
1-1/2 sticks butter, unsalted
2 tablespoons shallots, minced
1/2 vanilla bean, split
1/4 teaspoon saffron
1/2 cup verjus
1 ounce heavy cream
Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a small non-reactive saucepan, add
shallots, scraped seeds from vanilla bean, vanilla bean pod and saffron.
Sweat over very low heat for 1 minute.
Add verjus and reduce by half to approximately 1/4 cup. Cut remaining butter
into small pieces and whisk into sauce over low flame. When butter is just
completely melted, remove from heat immediately and strain through fine
sieve. Whisk cream in and season with salt and white pepper to taste. Use
immediately or hold in prewarmed thermos up to one hour ahead.
Summer Vegetable Gratin
(from http://www.americastestkitchen.com/r...5044&iSeason=9)
The success of this recipe depends on good-quality produce. Buy zucchini and
summer squash of roughly the same diameter. While we like the visual
contrast zucchini and summer squash bring to the dish, you can also use just
one or the other. A similarly sized broiler-safe gratin dish can be
substituted for the 13- by 9-inch baking dish. Serve the gratin alongside
grilled fish or meat and accompanied by bread to soak up any flavorful
Serves 6-8 as a side or 4 as a light main dish
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound zucchini, ends trimmed and sliced crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick
slices (see note)
1 pound summer squash (yellow), ends trimmed and sliced crosswise into
1/4-inch-thick slices
2 teaspoons table salt
1 1/2 pounds ripe tomatoes (3 to 4 large), sliced 1/4 inch thick
2 medium onions, halved lengthwise and sliced thin pole to pole (about 3
3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 medium garlic cloves, minced or pressed through garlic press (about 2
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme leaves
1 large slice white sandwich bread, torn into quarters
2 ounces Parmesan cheese, grated (about 1 cup)
2 medium shallots, minced (about 1/4 cup)
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
1. Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position and heat oven to 400 degrees.
Brush 13- by 9-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon oil; set aside.
2. Toss zucchini and summer squash slices with 1 teaspoon salt in large
bowl; transfer to colander set over bowl. Let stand until zucchini and
squash release at least 3 tablespoons of liquid, about 45 minutes. Arrange
slices on triple layer paper towels; cover with another triple layer paper
towels. Firmly press each slice to remove as much liquid as possible.
3. Place tomato slices in single layer on double layer paper towels and
sprinkle evenly with 1/2 teaspoon salt; let stand 30 minutes. Place second
double layer paper towels on top of tomatoes and press firmly to dry
4. Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium
heat until shimmering. Add onions, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4
teaspoon pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are softened and
dark golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Set onions aside.
5. Combine garlic, 3 tablespoons oil, remaining 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and
thyme in small bowl. In large bowl, toss zucchini and summer squash in half
of oil mixture, then arrange in greased baking dish. Arrange caramelized
onions in even layer over squash. Slightly overlap tomato slices in single
layer on top of onions. Spoon remaining garlic-oil mixture evenly over
tomatoes. Bake until vegetables are tender and tomatoes are starting to
brown on edges, 40 to 45 minutes.
6. Meanwhile, process bread in food processor until finely ground, about 10
seconds. (You should have about 1 cup crumbs.) Combine bread crumbs,
remaining tablespoon oil, Parmesan, and shallots in medium bowl. Remove
baking dish from oven and increase heat to 450 degrees. Sprinkle bread-crumb
mixture evenly on top of tomatoes. Bake gratin until bubbling and cheese is
lightly browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle with basil and let sit at room
temperature 10 minutes before serving.

Now therefore stand ye before the Lord by your lineages, and by (your) families. | 19 But you have now rejected your God, who saves you out of all your calamities and distresses. And you have said, 'No, set a king over us.' So now present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes and clans." |

From The Los Angeles Times online :On Thursday, the folks behind CouponCodes4u.com made a bold prediction: They say the Kindle Fire HD will outsell the iPad mini by 2 to 1.
To back up that claim, the coupon clearing house website cited data collected from its website that shows nearly twice as many searches for the words "Kindle Fire HD" compared with "iPad mini" in the last three weeks.
From Amazon: Founder and CEO of Amazon sat down today to speak of this years sales and the Black Friday coming up on The Today show with Matt Laur. He believes that the big box stores have forced him and others like him to re-think and re-package and basically "think outside the box" and he believes they have the answer. Firstly they have begun shipping the Kindle fire a week earlier than they had reported and according to them they have it figured out because they are selling it at cost with hopes that you will buy your e-books @ amazon. Above are links to amazon Kindle Fire sales that you can get right now and the sales won't get any better.

Tackling tropical cyclones in the Indian Ocean
Tropical cyclones give developing countries much needed rain for agriculture. But as the earth warms, they are set to become more intense, and strong cyclones can cause great loss of life and property. This is especially true in South Asia, where the Bay of Bengal's shallow coastal waters, high tides and densely populated low-lying areas make cyclones particularly deadly. October 8th was International Day for Disaster Reduction, and to highlight the issues facing South Asia, SciDev.Net published a set of articles to inform policymakers, researchers and international donors about ways of improving cyclone management. The online resource focuses on the impact cyclones have in South Asia and how countries can better forecast, prepare for and adapt to future cyclones, as well as cope with the impacts of extreme events. It highlights lessons learnt from countries like Bangladesh, India and Madagascar.

How much of your discourse on joining/bonding is your own extrapolation and what is text-based? I ask because I am elaborating my own concept of how this might work in Men in a story right now and want to give you credit if I am drawing on your ideas. Thanks!

RJ Cooper's Rogue 24 showcases his culinary vision both literally and creatively by focusing the diner's experience around the kitchen and allowing his chefs to precisely execute his gastronomic ballet. The expression, "culinary theater" has never been a more apt description as it has in Cooper's two year old establishment. You wouldn't assume such a sophisticated menu and execution awaits as you arrive to Rogue 24; located down a back alley in the Shaw neighborhood one block from the convention center.
The exterior of the building has wooden paneling and the inset "Rogue 24" is illuminated in bright white lights, in case you were lost. The abandoned auto shop next door covered in graffiti being a perfect introduction to the hip culinary destination that awaits you across the alley; mechanical execution, covered in artistic flair. The location is perfect for Copper's pedigree; a Detroit native with stints cooking at Vidalia the DC seminal upscale southern comfort food destination; his elevation of simple dishes working side by side with his crew shows the level of art that this once humble working class profession has been raised in DC.

Family Meal Night …Celebrated During Ohio Parents Week
Since 2001, the Ohio Grocers Foundation has been a proud supporter of Ohio Parents Week and Family Meal Night. The Foundation has worked to promote the concept of building stronger families through the practice of regular meals at home. The fourth week in September is Ohio Parents Week, which was created to recognize and celebrate people raising children and promote the many resources available to assist with the vital role of parenting. This year, Ohio Parents Week is September 21-27. A special event during Parents Week is Family Meal Night – A Day to Eat Dinner as a Family, which will be held on Monday, September 22nd. The day is committed to encouraging families to sit down and eat dinner together, a simple, yet effective means of maintaining the bond between parent and child. Research by the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse (CASA) at Columbia University also has shown that the more a child eats dinner with his or her family, the less likely that child is to smoke, drink alcohol, or use illegal drugs.

Fans who've been thirsting for more of the couple's kaleidoscopic collaborative efforts got their wish last week when Luhrmann's version of the Puccini classic began in previews at the Curran Theatre (through Nov. 10). The director said he chose San Francisco because of the city's receptivity to new ideas. The opera officially hits New York's Broadway Theatre on Dec. 8.
Luhrmann first directed "La Bohème" in 1990 at the Sydney Opera House, where his modernization of the production caused such controversy that the entire subscription base canceled. But that didn't deter him from bringing it to the U.S.
Of course, a few things have been tweaked in classic Baz fashion. Paris has been updated from 1840 to 1957 (imagine the postwar Left Bank milieu of Jean Paul Sartre and Coco Chanel) and most of the action takes place in a tiny garret apartment above a busy café-lined boulevard. If this rings familiar for some, much of the aesthetic was borrowed from last year's "Moulin Rouge," right down to the troupe's rooftop antics, the moody Paris sky and the huge neon red L'Amour sign just outside the window.
But don't expect the six young, photogenic singers who rotate in the principal roles of Mimi and Rodolfo to break out into Elton John or Madonna lyrics between arias. Puccini's score and lyrics remain true, with a few clever subtitle changes using modern-day vernacular.
While Martin's sets recall the black-and-white photographs of Brassai and Doisneau more than her Oscar-winning dizzying rainbows of "Moulin Rouge," exquisite flashes of color punctuate the production, making C.M.'s (as Martin is known) costumes and sets that much more potent. Mimi's white coat, worn over a modest purple dress, harmonizes with Rodolfo's purple duster, which he wears over a black leather motorcycle jacket. Her raspberry beret, a token of Rodolfo's love, also plays a pivotal role. But the most show-stopping number is Musetta's red satin corseted cocktail dress (recalling Nicole Kidman's similarly styled gown in "Moulin Rouge"), in which she licks through the black-and-white street scene like a flame.

Start the countdown to the "I do's"! Bride-to-be Kim Kardashian, her fiancé Kanye West and the whole Kardashian krew arrived to Florence, Italy on Saturday, ahead of their planned nuptials.
Then more cars arrived, transporting Kim's sisters and bridesmaids. "Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner then got out of one of the later cars. They looked to be wearing black pants and white tops. Kendall waved to the small group of fans overlooking from a gate just above the entrance," while Khloé Kardashian also "waved at the fans."

Kourtney Kardashian and beau Scott Disick came next. "Kourtney was carrying her daughter Penelope and her son Mason -- in a red-striped outfit -- followed behind."
The wedding is to take place at the gorgeous venue in the early evening.

The 60-story Elphinstone Mills complex in downtown Mumbai includes Class A office space and a pedestrian friendly retail podium. The building is designed to a LEED Platinum standard and will create a new icon in the skyline of Mumbai.
Every floor of the office tower features outdoor terraces and multi-story garden atria, fully integrating the interior workspace with natural elements of the exterior environment. These garden spaces provide tenants with a shaded area for relaxation and socialization; natural light is abundant, while the overhangs simultaneously shade the units below. The building is also oriented to minimize solar gain, decreasing the heating effect of direct sunlight and increasing comfort levels for building tenants.
Each atrium space is connected to a central atrium within the building's core. Air flows from the exterior environment into this central space, accelerating as it travels down the atrium toward a series of wind turbines, which generate power for the building.
Elphinstone Mills is scheduled for completion in September 2008

"Wow, this was surprisingly yummy! I had no onions so used dried onion flakes and added some italian herbs and garlic powder. I used 2.5 ounces of cheddar cheese (easier to measure that way) and baked them in the oven. I would definitely make these again for an easy and yummy treat."
"I made this cake for a German themed potluck. It was very well received. Not only was the cake gorgeous, it was also very tasty. One of my friends said it was like "German Tiramisu". I made the cake one night, cut, filled and put together the layers the next night and then frosted with whipped cream and decorated the next morning. It held up ..."
"This is easy and delicious. I added extra tortillas as I like mine thick and hearty. I doubled the recipe and got 23 cups of soup. The only change I made was I left out the cheese. Didn't notice anything lacking. I garnished with sour cream and shredded cheese. Yum Yum! I will be making this again. I think it would make a great veggie soup ..."
"Wonderful! I made this tonight with the eggplant and tomato from my garden. It was so easy and it is delicious. I asked the chef if this can work as a freezer meal and he states that it wil so I am looking forward to stocking my freezer with curry and enjoying aubergines all winter long.
I did not have all of the spices but I had a good cu..."
"I made some changes to the recipe. This was a great jumping off point for creative cooking. I used a can of coconut milk along with 3 cups of whole milk. I also used about 1 and 3/4 cups of rice. I added a little bit of vanilla and used 1/2 cup each of almonds and pistachios. I used a whole tablesopoon cardamom powder. I thought it was delici..."
"I made a few changes because I'm snowed in and couldn't get out for the ingredients. I used 5 ounces cheddar, 3 ounces monterrey jack and instead of a green pepper I used red. Also, I didn't have any lemon juice on hand so I used a Tablespoon of red wine.. YUM! Thanks for a good and versatile recipe."
"This is yummy! I switched up the spices a little for my family's tastes - 2 tsp of cinnamon, 1 tsp cloves, 1 tsp ginger and 1 tsp nutmeg. It may not make it to Christmas morning!"
"I subbed regular potato instead of the sweet potato. I just didn't think I would like the sweet potato with the spicy flavors. It was wonderful! My vegan sister in law loved it. She had it with guacamole instead of the sour cream. These also freeze beautifully."
"This was just OK for me. I made it with chicken because I didn't have pork on hand and maybe that was the problem. It just wasn't that flavorful. If I make it again I would use twice as much of the flavoring agents and maybe put in some fish sauce as well. Maybe Chinese food really needs MSG??? (I'm not going there)"

This program will set up events for a small group of teens to learn about not only cooking, but also team building and self-expression! Cooking also raises one's self esteem and can give the element of independence, by showing a teenager with an illness or learning disability that they can do things for themselves.

For perhaps the first time, Samantha Jones has turned down more ''Sex.'' Variety reports that HBO has scrapped plans to make a theatrical feature film version of ''Sex and the City'' because Kim Cattrall wouldn't commit to the project. The movie, which had been in the works since just before the TV series wrapped in February, would have reunited the four stars of the show and marked the feature directing debut of ''Sex'' producer Michael Patrick King. Rather than proceed without Cattrall, HBO pulled the plug on the movie. ''We've had six wonderful years with the show and we're extremely proud of what we've accomplished,'' the network said in a statement.
Why did Cattrall say no? Variety cites sources saying that Cattrall wanted script approval, which none of the other actresses had (King was to have written the screenplay as well), and that she also wanted to be paid the same as Sarah Jessica Parker, who, as the lead actress, was to have earned more than the other three. Cattrall's rep, however, says the actress was too busy to sign on to a project with an unfinished screenplay and an indefinite schedule. ''Kim felt fortunate to have enjoyed six wonderful years, both personally and professionally, playing Samantha on 'Sex and the City,''' Cattrall spokeswoman Marvet Britto told Variety. ''She would have loved to have done the movie and made a deal to do the movie, but waited as long as possible with no script or start date and felt she had to take other offers that were presented to her after the hold period had passed. Kim would of course love to do the film and would be happy to revisit the project in the future.''
Earlier this month, according to the Hollywood Reporter, Cattrall signed on to star in ''Ice Princess,'' a drama currently shooting in Toronto, in which she plays a former Olympic skating hopeful who coaches a young prospect (''Buffy'''s Michelle Trachtenberg). As for the ''Sex'' movie, it's too bad HBO didn't want to replace Cattrall because, after seeing Christina Aguilera's dead-on Cattrall imitation on ''Saturday Night Live'' a few months back, we think she'd make a swell substitute Samantha.


text: Klinger: The Great List, that mathemagical compendium of the critical hive mind that has served as our Counterbalance launch pad, offers a number of challenges to those who dare traverse its terrain, but I'd wager that no album is as fraught with peril as Captain Beefheart and His Magic Band's Trout Mask Replica. Even those who now love the album often say that they found its off-key, off-beat, off-kilter ramblings to be completely impenetrable. And you and I certainly had our share of trouble wrapping our heads around it. Even so, it still sits solidly within the canon — statistically speaking, it's the 59th most acclaimed album of all time. And maybe it's my own inability to enjoy Trout Mask Replica that sent me digging into some of the Captain's other works, and what led me to his debut album, 1967's Safe As Milk. And call me a philistine, but Safe As Milk is, to my ears, vastly preferable.

The 2014 Schola Saint George Symposium was held from August 9-11th and was a great success.
The SSG DFW Branch hosted the symposium this year and it was a great event with members travelling from across the country to attend. Through some hard work from a DFW member Daniel Torpey, we secured world class facilities at SMU in Dallas.
There were a number of great classes this year. Classes on pollaxe, sword in one hand (basic guards and plays), sword in one hand (guards from a non Fiore system), abrazare (grappling), the zogho stretto with the spada a dui mani, and drill progression with Fiore's Masters of Battle.
There were academic classes on Late Medieval Chivalric Culture and Flow in Fiore's L'Arte d' Arimizare. We aslo had an invited guest that presented a class on How the Samurai Prepared for Battle.
The event was capped of with a Chivalric Tournament. Eric Weiss of the DFW Branch being acknowledged as the exemplar of the field.
Once again thanks to the DFW Branch for a great symposium.
Hope to see everyone at next years symposium.
Bryan Johnson
SSG President
The 2013 Symposium went well we had a modest group of around 27 people for Saturday and Sunday. We had participation from the DFW and Charleston Groups as well as local groups - Swords of Cobb, Decatur School of Arms, and the Atlanta Freifechter. Also there were a number of individuals that travelled from out of state as well. Lots of good classes - single sword, zhogo stretto for the spada a dui mani, Meyer's cuts, poleaxe, rapier, application to stage combat, and much other informal training.
The tournament was well fought with 25 competetors; Bryan Johnson (SSG Atlanta), Keith Cotter Reily (Atlanta Freifechter), McKenzie Adlai Ewing (Atlanta Freifechter), and Glen Slate (SSG Atlanta) taking home awards.
Look forward to seeing everyone again.
The 2013 SSG Symposium is being hosted by our Atlanta chapter in Douglasville, Ga November 23-25. It will be held at Deerlick Park in Douglasville, Ga, a suburb of Atlanta. Events at the symposium will include a tournament with longsword, spada and spear, lanza as well as three days of classes on a plethora of subjects in the medieval and renaissance martial arts. Please check the Schola Saint George FB page and our forum on this site for any up to the minute changes to the weekends' events.
A tentative schedule can be seen below. (click th emore button)
The Schola Saint George is a non-profit school of "chivalric" martial arts dedicated to promoting study of Hisrotical European Martial Arts / Western Martial Arts historical fighting systems through research, training, and competition.
We study surviving fighting treatises. These books of fighting techniques--dating from as early as 1300--are a virtual treasure trove of medieval and Renaissance techniques written by masters who systematized their knowledge and recorded it. Our members study these books, working to recreate the historical fighting systems. These systems are then practiced as modern martial arts.
We have created a proven core curriculum based on the works of Fiore dei Liberi, a superbly efficient Italian meistro active at the end of the fourteenth and into the early fifteenth centuries.

Jessica Simpson is a model now
1 of 16
Because this'll show Tony Romo, Jessica Simpson was a runway model at the Ozlem Suer catwalk show in Paris yesterday where she exhibited the refined poise and grace of a Cracker Barrel waitress. Actually, that's not fair. They're good salt of the earth people.
I meant Applebee's.
