Susan Boyle About to Blow Up Internet
Monday afternoon: I see the video (which they won't let you embed, dang it, so watch it here) on Towleroad of frizzy-haired "spinster" Susan Boyle stunning the judges of "Britain's Got Talent" with an emotional rendition of "I Dreamed a Dream." It's, you know, a cute little internet video.
Monday evening: I hear the very same audio coming out of the laptop of German DJs who are staying at my house for the weekend. They were using my neighbor's wi-fi to catch up on German news, and the video was the first thing they saw.
Tuesday evening: Charlie Gibson covers the story on the ABC Evening News.
Tuesday night: The Boston Globe reports the clip has been watched over 2.7 million times since it was uploaded on April 11.
Wednesday afternoon: It's the top story on npr.org. They report the clip has been watched 7 million times.
Wednesday evening: A quick YouTube search shows multiple copies of the same clip making the rounds, but an unscientific sum of all their view counts puts the number at approximately 13 million.
Thursday (prediction): Susan Boyle surpasses Barack Obama as the most popular human being on the planet.

I've noticed Wolf uses a lot of these actors multiple times in differing roles on each of the L&O shows. I totally remember Jay O.Sanders as the crazy hitman going insane looking for the tooth in his garage. That was a classic! he also played this hyper controlling father on L&O ,w ho controlled his two girls and his second wife tot he point they couldn't function without him-they weren't allowed to have any of their own thoughts or opinions and they didn't even realize that. It was so disturbing. So, Jay O. Sanders is hard for me to look art in his new role as the captain because i keep thinking of all the creepy characters hes played.

Man with all these Law and Orders and their changing casts I keep getting names messed up...lol I should never call anyone by their real names.....just refer to the characters. I am not sure who the actor was that I meant....just that the captain was killed and Eames was offered the promotion but that she had to fire Goren. I must have missed the new episode...the one I saw was a rerun.
Choices are the hinges of destiny.
no worries - I reread my post and see that I was unclear - I sometimes forget that you folks can't read my mind!!!

If you all are talking about CI & why stuff wasn't explained in the episode with Jay Mohr as the fashion guy, it's because that wasn't going to be the 1st episode of the new season. It was going to be, like the 4th, but they moved it up.

Thanks for that info, it seemed a bit out of whack- with the simple `welcome back' being the only reference to their prolonged absence. To further confuse things for us
I think last night's episode was supposed to be the premiere-at least according to a write up I read awhile ago about the premiere episode. But now, I'm just really confused.

Apr 19, 2011 Bob Buskirk Reviews, Storage 1
Solid state drives are all the rage right now. The most common form factor for solid state drives is the 2.5-inch form factor. Many new cases have support for 2.5-inch drives, but many cases, even newer ones do not. No one wants to go out and buy a brand new case, just for a hard drive. Vantec knows this and has a whole line of hard drive racks that support 2.5-inch drives. Today we will be taking a look at the NexStar SE Dual 2.5-inch hard drive rack, which is a 5.25-inch bay device that supports two 2.5-inch drives. Let's take a look…

US 7673819 B2 Abstract A cartridge for a handheld electrohydrodynamic (EHD) spraying device and a spraying device incorporating the cartridge. The cartridge is disposable, and can contain therapeutic products. The device includes a wetted lead screw with a compliant seal, where the placement of the seal relative to the screw inhibits leakage during both cartridge use and storage. A frame disposed within the cartridge acts as a load-transferring mechanism for the weight of the cartridge to a handle of the spraying device.
Claims(20) 1. An electrohydrodynamic spray device comprising:
a fluid dispensing cartridge comprising:
a body defining a substantially closed fluid chamber therein, said fluid chamber configured to contain a fluid therein, said fluid chamber comprising a proximal end and a distal end substantially opposite said proximal end;
a lead screw disposed within said fluid chamber;
a piston threadably cooperative with said lead screw such that upon rotation of said lead screw, said piston advances toward said distal end to force at least a portion of said fluid out of said cartridge; and
a seal associated with said piston and threadably cooperative with said lead screw such that upon said advancing of said piston, said seal inhibits fluid leakage along said lead screw, said seal being made from a material softer than that of said screw;
a handle comprising a rotational power source and a high voltage electrical source therein, said handle configured to attachably receive said cartridge;
a spray manifold in fluid communication with said cartridge; and
a plurality of nozzles in fluid communication with said spray manifold, at least one of said manifold and said plurality of nozzles in electrical communication with said high voltage electrical source such that upon application of a voltage to said at least one of said manifold and said plurality of nozzles, at least a portion of said fluid being discharged from said plurality of nozzles is comminuted.

19. The spray device of
20. An electrohydrodynamic spray device comprising: a fluid dispensing cartridge comprising: a body defining a substantially closed fluid chamber therein, said fluid chamber configured to contain a fluid therein, said fluid chamber comprising a first end and a second end substantially opposite said first end; a lead screw disposed within said fluid chamber; a piston threadably cooperative with said lead screw such that upon rotation of said lead screw, said piston advances toward said second end to force at least a portion of said fluid out of said cartridge, said piston having a bore; and a seal disposed in said bore and threadably cooperative with said lead screw such that upon said advancing of said piston, said seal inhibits fluid leakage along said lead screw said seal being made from a material softer than that of said screw; a handle comprising a rotational power source and a high voltage electrical source therein, said handle configured to attachably receive said cartridge; a spray manifold in fluid communication with said cartridge; and a plurality of nozzles in fluid communication with said spray manifold, at least one of said manifold and said plurality of nozzles in electrical communication with said high voltage electrical source such that upon application of a voltage to said at least one of said manifold and said plurality of nozzles, at least a portion of said fluid being discharged from said plurality of nozzles is comminuted.
Description This application claims the benefit of the filing date of U.S. Design Patent Application entitled HANDLE, (application Ser. No. 29/261,411), and U.S. Design Patent Application entitled HANDLE, (Application Ser. No. 29/261,452), both filed Jun. 13, 2006. The present invention relates generally to devices for spraying finely dispersed liquids, and more particularly to the use of a disposable cartridge that is compatible with a handheld electrohydrodynamic (EHD) spray device. Spraying using EHD technology (also referred to as electric field effect technology (EFET)) is a process where fluids or other bulk solutions are dispensed through electrically-charged nozzles. In an EHD spray nozzle, the material to be sprayed flows through a region of high electric field strength made possible by the application of a high voltage to the nozzles and associated nozzle geometry. The high voltage causes the fluid material to acquire an electric charge; the electric field present at the nozzle tips applies a pole to the fluid; the poled fluid charge induces a force that acts in opposition to the surface tension of the material. This surface charge causes the formation of at least one ligament of thin jet of material, causing comminution of the fluid into fine droplets. One advantage of the EHD process is that high fluid forcing pressures are not required, thereby reducing high-velocity fluid movement and concomitant levels of noise associated with fluid dispersal. As the fluid exits the nozzle, the repelling forces of the surface charge balance against the surface tension of the material, causing the formation of a conical spray pattern (often referred to as a Taylor cone). The tip of the cone has the greatest concentration of charge, and, at that point, the electrical forces overcome the surface tension, generating the thin jet of material that breaks up into charged droplets of generally uniform size. These charged droplets are then readily attracted to the target, adhering readily to it. As portions of the target become coated with the material, the relative electrostatic potential between coated sections and uncoated sections causes subsequent application of the charged material to be preferentially attracted to an uncoated portion of the target, thereby promoting more uniform coverage. The charged nature of the droplets is further beneficial in that their like charge tends to force them to avoid agglomeration. Soon after being deposited on the target, the material loses its charge, leaving an electrically-neutral end product. EHD technology is a useful way to overcome many of the limitations inherent in other spray application devices, as uneven application, repeated squeezing and releasing of a fluid-dispensing trigger, waste of fluid product and inadvertent exposure of the operator to the fluid material can be reduced or outright avoided. One example of where EHD technology is beneficial is in animal care products, where pesticides and related therapeutic products can be applied easily, accurately and with minimal inconvenience to the operator and the animal being treated. As well, EHD technology may be extended to other uses, including the application of cosmetics, personal care materials and medicaments to animals and humans, as well as the dispensing of fluids for other uses. One way to further improve the operability of EHD spraying devices is to have the fluid being dispensed be provided in disposable cartridges. Once the product is dispensed, the cartridge can be thrown away and replaced by a new one. This is beneficial in situations where prolonged or excessive exposure to the fluid being dispensed is undesirable, such as with pesticides or other materials used to treat horses and other domesticated animals. Within the cartridge art are containers in which a generally cylindrical-shaped piston is driven along the length of a complementary-shaped inner wall of the cartridge upon rotation of a lead screw. The lead screw is threaded through the piston and extends into the fluid chamber of the cartridge, and is sometimes referred to as a �wetted� lead screw. Fluid disposed downstream of the piston is forced through an outlet in response to the increasing pressure within the cartridge by piston movement in the downstream direction. Unfortunately, the above-mentioned cartridge is prone to leakage, especially in regions between the outer periphery of the piston and the inner wall of the cartridge, as well as the threaded space between the screw and the piston. In an application where a cartridge of this type may be used in a device with electronics, the fluid can potentially leak into regions where electronic and other liquid-intolerant componentry resides. As well, when the cartridge or device is being stored during long periods of time during shipping, storage, display or between uses, an unacceptable quantity of fluid may be lost. This problem is particularly acute in situations where the liquid is expensive or hazardous, such as a pesticide, herbicide, flammable materials or the like. What is desired is a leak-free cartridge, and more desirably, a leak-free disposable cartridge that can be used with an EHD device that is inexpensive to manufacture and easy to dispose of once the contents are dispensed. These desires are met by the present invention, wherein a cartridge and a method of dispensing a fluid are disclosed. In accordance with a first aspect of the present invention, a cartridge that is configured to cooperate with an EHD sprayer (or spray device) is disclosed. The cartridge preferably includes a body that defines on its inside a substantially closed fluid chamber that has a proximal end (nearest the user) and a distal end in opposition to one another. A lead screw is situated within the fluid chamber, and extends substantially between the proximal and distal ends. In the present context, �substantially� refers to an arrangement of elements or features that, while in theory would be expected to exhibit exact correspondence or behavior, may, in practice embody something slightly less than exact. As such, the term denotes the degree by which a quantitative value, measurement or other related representation may vary from a stated reference without resulting in a change in the basic function of the subject matter at issue. In addition, the cartridge includes a piston defining a bore therein such that the piston is threadably cooperative with the lead screw. With this arrangement, when the lead screw turns, the piston advances toward one end to force at least a portion of a fluid disposed therein out a discharge aperture formed in the cartridge. A seal is disposed in the bore and is threadably cooperative with the lead screw so that fluid leakage between the lead screw and the seal is inhibited. In addition, a fluid outlet is coupled to the fluid chamber such that fluid forced out of the fluid chamber by operation of the lead screw and piston will be discharged through the outlet. Optionally, the cartridge contains a liquid between the piston and the distal end of the fluid chamber. In another option, the cartridge body is tubular in shape. In the present context, the term �tubular� refers to a hollow shape which has in cross-section a geometrical or irregular form. The tubular body may be either axially elongate or axially squat, where the former refers to the extension of such form substantially along an axis a distance sufficient to define a fluid chamber, and the latter refers to an axial dimension of the fluid chamber that is relatively small when compared to the radial dimension. Additionally, the cartridge includes numerous nozzles that are fluidly coupled to it so that upon the application of force by the moving piston to the fluid, the fluid passes through the nozzles (which may be interconnected along a header or related manifold). For EHD spraying, the pressure necessary to move the fluid is nominal, as needed at a minimum to continuously provide fluid to replace that which is dispensed at what are referred to as Taylor cones formed at the nozzles. The nozzles are preferably fixed to the cartridge such that they may be disposed of or reusable together. This also promotes ease of use. Alternatively, the nozzles may be separable and reusable from the cartridge. The nozzles, manifold or both can be made of a conductive plastic material, using as base materials polymers, for example polycarbonate, high density polypropylene, or preferably polypropylene, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) and high density polyethylene (HDPE), which can be appropriately compounded as known in the art to exhibit conductive properties. Preferably, such materials exhibit surface resistivity from approximately 102 to 1014 ohm/square, and volume resistivity of 102 to 1014 ohm/cm. Alternatively, the nozzles may be made of other electrically conductive (for example, metallic) materials that can be cast or otherwise formed into the appropriate geometry. The nozzles are preferably electrically connected to a high voltage source within the sprayer. In either way, the EHD sprayer can impart the necessary charge to the droplets of liquid that are discharged from the nozzles. As stated above, there are various ways to establish fluid connection between the fluid chamber and the nozzles in such a way as to reduce the likelihood of leakage. In one form, the cartridge includes a septum disposed at the distal end. A cap may also be disposed at the distal end; the cap cooperative with the septum such that upon engagement of the two, the cap forms the aperture in the distal end and forms the sealing force. In another form, a stop-cock is disposed at the distal end to allow for repeated opening and closing of the cartridge. In either form, such act as a closure device configured to keep a liquid disposed within the cartridge from exiting through the distal end. In a particular form of the cartridge, the seal that is situated between the screw and the piston is preferably made up of a material that is softer than the material of either the lead screw or the piston. Such materials include silicone, rubber, urethane, and like flexible polymers that are compatible for use with a fluid to be dispensed from the cartridge and have the necessary properties to seal against the wetted lead screw in accordance with the present invention. In another option, the cartridge further comprises a frame configured to provide axial and radial support to the lead screw. More particularly, the frame is connected to the fluid chamber such that the frame inhibits movement of the lead screw toward one end (for example, the proximal end) of the cartridge. In one configuration, the frame is made up of a central hub from which numerous radially-extending spokes contact the inner wall of the fluid chamber. In such form, the frame supports and centers the screw as the piston advances. According to another aspect of the invention, an EHD spray device is disclosed. The device includes a fluid dispensing cartridge with a body defining a substantially closed fluid chamber configured to contain a fluid, a lead screw, piston and seal disposed within the fluid chamber, a handle comprising a rotational power source and a high voltage electrical source, a spray manifold in fluid communication with the cartridge and numerous nozzles in fluid communication with the spray manifold. One or both of the manifold and the nozzles are electrical communication with the high voltage electrical source. In this way, upon application of a voltage to the manifold, nozzles or both, at least a portion of the fluid being discharged from the nozzles is comminuted. The manifold is preferably designed to maintain substantially equal flow to each nozzle, however, the cartridge of the present invention does not depend on such flow being substantially equal, and may be used with other nozzle configurations to achieve EHD spraying with various characteristics. The handle preferably includes the power supply (for example, one or more batteries), motor, voltage multiplier, drive mechanism for the lead screw, and controller components. In alternative configurations where the cartridge is not detachable from the handle, the handle may include any combination of the power supply, fluid reservoir, pump, or controller/processor. Optionally, the handle comprises a grip for engaging a user's hand. In the present context, the grip is the portion of the handle that comes into contact with the user's hand. At least a portion of the grip (such as the trigger or related control member) can be made from a material such as a metal, an electrically conductive plastic, electrically conductive polymer, electrically conductive rubber or combination thereof. This facilitates grounding of the spray device through the user. The trigger can be used to commence and halt operation of the spray device. In another option, a longitudinal dimension of the handle and a longitudinal dimension of the cartridge are substantially aligned along a common longitudinal axis, while in another, they are angularly disposed relative to one another in an offset manner, thereby enhancing ergonomic features of the spray device. In the offset configuration, the angle formed between the longitudinal dimensions is up to thirty degrees. In either configuration, the center of gravity of the cartridge and the handle is located along a segment of the grip during at least a portion of operation of the spray device, thereby improving balance. The cartridge may be rotatably positionable about its longitudinal axis such that a preferred spraying pattern made be employed while keeping the user's hand position relatively constant. The cartridge can be rotated in angles of up to plus or minus ninety degrees from a neutral position (i.e., the position assumed by the cartridge upon normal connection with the handle of the spray device). The spray device may further include a frame substantially similar to that described previously. An interface defined between the cartridge and the handle may include a load-bearing mounting surface on the handle that cooperates with a complementary surface on the frame such that at least a portion of the force acting on the piston and screw during operation is not transmitted to the drive mechanism, but is carried by the load-bearing mounting surface. This can result in smaller, simpler components being used in the cartridge. Optional complementary surfaces disposed on the driver and the lead screw allow self-adjusting connection between them. The cartridge can be equipped with one of various forms of discharge closure means, examples of which include a septum or a stop-cock valve (the latter formed in an end cap) and operable to either establish fluid flow or seal the cartridge as previously discussed, either of which are placed at the distal end of the fluid chamber to prevent leakage or spillage of the liquid when the device is not in use. This is especially valuable in situations where highly concentrated fluids are placed in the cartridge. The spray manifold is electrically conductive, and is in fluid communication with the discharge aperture. In addition, the nozzles can be made electrically conductive, and in fluid communication with the spray manifold. In another form, the nozzle tips themselves do not have to be electrically conductive. The nozzle could be nonconductive with a conductive coating on the outside or inside to help establish the proper electric fields. Where the formulation of the fluid is sufficiently conductive, it would be enough that the high voltage contact the fluid somewhere upstream of the nozzles. Optionally, the handle includes a grip made from a metal, an electrically conductive material including electrically conductive plastic, electrically conductive polymer, electrically conductive rubber, and combinations thereof. In another option, the remainder of the handle could be made from the same materials as the grip. According to still another aspect of the invention, a method of spraying a fluid is disclosed. The method includes connecting a fluid-containing cartridge to a sprayer, and rotationally moving a wetted lead screw in the cartridge to dispense the fluid. Optionally, the spray device comprises a spray manifold and numerous nozzles, as well as an electric power source configured to provide rotational power and high voltage to one or both of the spray manifold and the nozzles such that upon the dispensing of the fluid, the high voltage imparts a charge to the fluid flowing through the nozzles, causing at least a portion of the dispensed fluid to be comminuted. By rotationally moving the lead screw, the fluid disposed in the cartridge is forced out; such can be controlled by the user through a control (such as a trigger or related switch). The cartridge may be rotatably adjusted about its longitudinal axis relative to the spray device. According to another aspect of the invention, a spray device including a handle and a cartridge is disclosed. The handle defines a grip thereon and includes an electric power supply, a motor coupled to the electric power supply, a control member configured to electrically connect the electric power supply and the motor, and a driver rotationally coupled to the motor. The cartridge is supported by the handle through a cantilevered connection between them, and includes a body defining a fluid chamber, a plunger disposed in the fluid chamber and responsive to the driver, and numerous nozzles in fluid communication with the fluid chamber. Movement of the driver causes corresponding movement of the plunger, which in turn causes at least a portion of the fluid to be discharged in a spray pattern substantially defined by the nozzles. The plunger is connected to the handle at an interface defined by the driver. Optionally, the spray device comprises a voltage multiplier circuit, as well as a connection to establish electrical communication between the voltage multiplier circuit and the nozzles. In this way, a charge field is set up that is sufficient to comminute the fluid being dispensed from the nozzles. The cartridge may further include a frame to promote the cantilevered connection between the cartridge and the handle. The frame may include a mounting surface that engages a complementary surface on the handle such that most (if not all) of the weight associated with the cartridge is carried through a connection formed by the engagement of the surfaces. The driver may include a female fitting that engages a complementary male projection extending from the plunger, where teeth disposed about a substantial inner periphery of the female fitting promote the engagement. The cartridge may define a substantially longitudinal axis (such that the cartridge takes on a generally tubular shape). In such a configuration, the spray pattern is in a direction substantially transverse to the longitudinal axis of the cartridge. The following detailed description of the present invention can be best understood when read in conjunction with the following drawings, where like structure is indicated with like reference numerals and in which: Referring first to Referring to Fluid that is forced out of cartridge 20 passes through discharge tube 80 and into manifold 90, where a series of channels (shown and described in more detail below) distribute the fluid to the nozzles 22. To promote EHD operation, high voltage from handle 26 is imparted to at least one of the manifold 90 and nozzles 22 so that an adjacent charge field to act upon the fluid. An electrical connection 99 is used to establish electrical continuity between the power source 12 and associated voltage multiplying components situated on converter 14. Piston 50 is mounted onto a wetted lead screw 40. While the screw 40 can be made from any suitable structural material, in a preferred embodiment it is made of plastic. Threads on both cooperate with each other such that upon rotation of screw 40, piston 50 progresses from the proximal end 20A to the distal end 20B. While the direction of travel of the piston 50 towards the distal end 20B as described above is preferred, it is not intended to limit the scope of the invention described herein. As such, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the cartridge 20 may be designed so that the wetted lead screw 40 drives the piston 50 from the distal end 20B towards the proximal end 20A of the fluid chamber. A relatively snug fit between the outer periphery of the piston 50 and the inner wall 20C prevents the piston 50 from sympathetically turning with the lead screw 40. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that other anti-rotation features may be employed, such as an axial key and slot arrangement formed in the piston and cartridge inner wall, or by forming the inner wall and piston with complementary oval or other non-axisymmetric shape. While it is preferable that the piston not rotate in relation to the inner wall 20C, in some applications the piston may rotate slightly in relation to the bore wall, but at a rate slower than the lead screw. The construction of piston 50 is such that it acts like a plunger in that it pushes fluid situated on its downstream portion out of a container, vessel or chamber to which the plunger is attached. Retaining ring 55 may be disposed substantially about the periphery of piston 50 to promote rigidity and shape retention. Cartridge 20 may optionally include a window, or be made of a transparent or translucent material (none of which are shown) to provide a visual dose cue to indicate the volume of fluid or number of doses remaining. Other indicia, such as an auditory application cue (not shown) through timed sounds linked to volume dispensing rate could also be used. A seal 70 is situated between an axial bore 52 formed in the piston 50 and the threads of screw 40. As with the piston 50, seal 70 may include threads on its inner bore so that the seal 70 can cooperate with the rotational movement of screw 40. In order to maximize its sealing feature, seal 70 is preferably made from a softer material than that of the screw 40 or piston 50. This results in a more compliant form that can better maintain small gaps between the seal 70 and the threads of the screw 40, thereby reducing the possibility of backwards leakage along the screw 40. Examples of seal material can be a silicone-based or plastic-based structure. In one form, the seal 70 can be integrally manufactured into piston 50 to ensure a leak-free connection. For best sealing properties, the seal 70 is manufactured or molded to match the thread design of the wetted lead screw 40. As shown in The seal designs of In another alternative design (not shown), seal 70 may be made without a thread design manufactured or molded therein. In this form, seal 70 may be formed from a relatively soft elastomer sleeve that could engage the threads of lead screw 40. The compliant nature of the sleeve would allow the sleeve to work its way into the threads as the lead screw 40 repeatedly passes over the sleeve. In such a design, the threads of the wetted lead screw 40 may be very fine, for applications where shorter travel per revolution of the wetted lead screw 40 is desired. The material of seal 70 is softer than that of the wetted lead screw 40 and piston 50, so that seal 70 is squeezed into the threads of the wetted lead screw 40 to seal against leakage. Again, this further alternative design is not preferred, as the sleeve compression on the fine threads adds friction and more revolutions are required per inch of travel for the wetted lead screw 40, all of which draws more power and tends to add cost to the cartridge and sprayer by requiring stronger parts and a larger motor. Referring again to Various rotational couplings between the driver 19 and wetted lead screw 40 are shown. Drive mechanism 18 (shown in In one form, a bayonet-type attachment 110 may be employed, as well as a keyed slot 120 to ensure proper alignment between the cartridge 20 and the handle 26 of sprayer 10. Such an attachment ensures quick connection and removal. The bayonet-type attachment 110 may be disposed on both sides of cartridge 20, so long as both can be engaged or disengaged simultaneously by relative rotation in one direction or the other between the cartridge 20 and handle 26. An example of such connection can be seen in Referring next to Additional ergonomic features of the handle are shown in For best operation, the sprayer 10 should be referenced between the user and the target during EHD spraying. The handle 26 preferably comprises a conductive material suitable for making electrical contact between the sprayer 10 and the user. The material may be, for example, a metal, conductive rubber, plastic, or other polymer. The material for the handle 26 may also comprise a soft-touch material to provide tactile contact between the user and the sprayer 10. As shown in the embodiment illustrated in Referring next to Referring next to Referring next to While certain representative embodiments and details have been shown for purposes of illustrating the invention, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes may be made without departing from the scope of the invention, which is defined in the appended claims.

(Skinny!) Oatmeal Cookie Smoothie
This healthy smoothie seriously tastes JUST like an oatmeal cookie! Plus it's easy to make and gluten-free too.
Oh man, I am way late to the adding-oatmeal-to-your-smoothies party.
(Seriously, how did I miss this?!)
But whatever, better late than never because I've got an oatmeal smoothie recipe to share with you today that literally tastes just like an oatmeal cookie. But this one is minus the guilt because it's made with healthy everyday ingredients, that also happen to be vegan and gluten-free.
I know I've never said this before, but you've gotta try it. ;)
I've been making this smoothie all week as a little treat after my morning workout, and it feels exactly like that — a treat.
All of the ingredients in it are totally good for you. But when combined together, they taste like the most decadent sweet dessert, thus also making this one of those smoothies that you could enjoy just about anytime of the day. Here's how to make it:
The key to using oats in your smoothies is to ground them up first. Just pop them in your blender and pulse about 3-5 times until they're nice and smooth. (It takes 2 seconds!)
Then add in the rest of your ingredients — including the vanilla and spices that will have it tasting extra oatmeal-cookie-ish, and pulse until smooth.
The result will be one delicious smoothie that will give you lots of fiber and energy to get through the day. And it can even satisfy those cookie cravings if you're looking for a healthier alternative.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
This smoothie tastes just like an oatmeal cookie. And it's good for you too! Add oats to blender, and pulse until finely ground. Add remaining ingredients and pulse until blended and smooth. Serve immediately. If you make this recipe, be sure to snap a photo and hashtag it #gimmesomeoven. I'd love to see what you cook!(Skinny!) Oatmeal Cookie Smoothie
Leave a Comment:
I'm so excited to try this recipe tomorrow.
Just an FYI, your Pinterest link at the bottom of this post doesn't got to the right account.
Try adding a tablespoon or so of peanut butter or almond butter. Mmmm!
Love this idea! Can I use skim milk in place of the almond milk?
How many calories are in the smoothie?

Just days before the extended KISS family will reportedly share a table at the 2014 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony, guitarist / vocalist Paul Stanley has stated, among other things, that classic members Ace Frehley and Peter Criss "don't belong in the band. And they don't belong in a position to represent the band."
The KISS drama continues as Paul Stanley's long-awaited autobiography, 'Face the Music: A Life Exposed,' which hits shelves on April 8, reportedly contains some serious accusations towards former KISS members Ace Frehley and Peter Criss. According to Stanley, he believes the two are anti-Semitic, drawing from "years and years of interactions" as proof.
Though KISS have cranked out their fair share of hard rocking anthems over the years, the band's 1976 ballad 'Beth' remains the highest charting song of their career. Drummer Peter Criss is often credited with the songwriting for the track, but he and Paul Stanley have different accounts as to how the track came about.

Gene Barry (June 14, 1919 – December 9, 2009) was an American stage, screen, and television actor. Barry is best remembered for his leading roles in the films The Atomic City (1952) and The War of The Worlds (1953) and for his portrayal of the title characters in the TV series Bat Masterson and Burke's Law, among many roles.
Barry was born Eugene Klass on June 14, 1919, in New York City, the son of Eva (née Conn) and Martin Klass;[1] all of his grandparents were Jewish immigrants from Russia.[2] Barry grew up in Brooklyn, NY and attended New Utrecht High School. Barry exhibited early artistic skills with singing and playing violin as a child and later spent two years at the Chatham Square School of Music in Greenwich Village, New York on a scholarship awarded for his vocal ability.
On October 22, 1944, at age 25, Barry married Betty Claire Kalb (February 12, 1923 – January 31, 2003), whom he met on the set of Catherine Was Great. Kalb was an actress known by the stage name, Julie Carson. Their marriage produced three children: two biological sons and an adopted daughter.
Barry chose his professional name in honor of John Barrymore[3] and made his Broadway debut as Captain Paul Duval in the 1942 revival of Sigmund Romberg's The New Moon. He later portrayed Falke in Rosalinda (1942), Nova Kovich in The Merry Widow (1943), Lieutenant Bunin in Catherine Was Great (1944), Dorante and Comte De Chateau-Gaillard in The Would-Be Gentleman (1946), The Doctor in Happy as Larry (1950), and played a variety of roles in the musical revue Bless You All (1950).
In 1950, Barry began appearing on TV with the NBC Television Opera Theatre. In 1955, he appeared on the CBS Television anthology series Appointment with Adventure.
In 1951, Barry was hired for his first movie, in the role of "Dr. Frank Addison" in The Atomic City (1952), and then in 1952, Barry was cast as "Dr. Clayton Forrester" in the science fiction film The War of the Worlds (1953). (Much later, Barry also made a cameo appearance in Steven Spielberg's remake of War of the Worlds (2005), along with his co-star Ann Robinson from the film of 1952.)
When the situation comedy Our Miss Brooks was given a change in format in 1955, Barry was cast in a recurring role as the physical-education teacher "Gene Talbot", the new romantic interest of series star Eve Arden. While the show was canceled in 1956, Barry's character—a ladies' man with expensive tastes—served as the model for three shows in which he starred.
Bat Masterson, a fictionalized recounting of the life of the real-life U.S. Marshal, gambler, and gunman was broadcast by NBC-TV from 1958 to 1961. (In 1990, Barry recreated the role of Bat Masterson for two episodes of Guns of Paradise along with Hugh O'Brian as Wyatt Earp and the following year in The Gambler Returns: The Luck of the Draw, also with O'Brian as Wyatt Earp.)
In his next TV series, Burke's Law, Barry played a millionaire homicide investigator who was chauffeured in his limousine as he solved crimes. This series was broadcast on ABC-TV from September 20, 1963, to May 5, 1965. For his performance in it, Barry won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in 1965. In 1966, the final year of the series, the title of the show changed to Amos Burke, Secret Agent.[4] (In 1993 the "Burke's Law" series returned to television for one year. Barry again acted in the title role, but this time as a widower with a son named Peter.[5]) According to his co-star Gary Conway, who played Det. Tilson in the series, the two actually had a lot of fun, on- and off-camera, despite having some difficulties with each other.[6] After Conway left the show, he remained friends with Barry, until his acting mentor's death.
Barry's third TV series was called The Name of the Game, in which he played the sophisticated publisher of a family of magazines, and he was one of three lead characters on the series. The other two lead actors were Robert Stack and Tony Franciosa, who rotated with Barry week by week as the primary character in each week's program. This series was shown by NBC from 1968 to 1971. One of the magazines that Barry's character published was called People magazine, several years before the actual People magazine entered publication.
Shortly before the filming of The Name of the Game series began, Barry played the villain—a wealthy psychiatrist— in Prescription: Murder, the two-hour pilot episode of the TV series Columbo.
In 1972, Barry starred in the ITV television series The Adventurer, along with Barry Morse and Catherine Schell. He played Gene Bradley, a government agent of independent means, who poses as a glamorous American movie star.
Barry returned to Broadway acting on two occasions—in 1962 in The Perfect Setup, and in 1983 in the Broadway premiere of the musical La Cage aux Folles. For his portrayal of Georges, Barry was nominated for a Tony Award.
For his contribution to live theatre, Gene Barry received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame located at 6555 Hollywood Boulevard. In 1994, a Golden Palm Star on the Palm Springs, California, Walk of Stars was dedicated to him.[7]
Barry died on December 9, 2009 at Sunrise Senior Living[8] in Woodland Hills, California, at the age of ninety.[9] He was buried at the Hillside Memorial Park Cemetery in Culver City, California.[10] At his death, he was survived by his sons, Michael and Frederick, and his daughter, Elizabeth, as well as three grandchildren Taylor, Jessica and Josh, and two great-grandchildren. His wife, Betty, had died earlier, in 2003, after fifty-eight years of marriage. His sister, Reva, owns a restaurant called REVAS in Whangarei, New Zealand, where she has lived since 1974.
Barry's character in The War of the Worlds is Dr. Clayton Forrester. Trace Beaulieu's character on Mystery Science Theater 3000 has that name as a tribute to the movie and its genre.

Meyer's opportunity at Ohio State
Urban Meyer, Kevin Sumlin and Larry Fedora can each make early impact at new jobs
College football programs across the country have been furiously firing and hiring head coaches during the last few weeks, and only a few major programs still have holes to fill. Predicting the success of future head coaches is not very easy to do. Coaches with solid credentials sometimes fall flat, and surprise contenders sometimes emerge from unlikely places.
Before we can focus on forecasting success, we need to evaluate where programs stand. One such measure is the program FEI ratings, a five-year weighted measure of drive success, and a good indicator of which programs are positioned for immediate improvement and which ones may take more time. We'll wait until after the bowls to run the official PFEI ratings through 2011, but a preliminary rundown identifies only a few new coaches who are inheriting programs in solid shape.
The new hires of Mike Leach of the Washington State Cougars (PFEI No. 104), Jim L. Mora of the UCLA Bruins (PFEI No. 72) and Charlie Weis of the Kansas Jayhawks (PFEI No. 87) have made for some splashy headlines, but we'll be surprised if any of these three turns the tables overnight -- partly because a couple of those programs already have an upward trajectory. Hugh Freeze of the Ole Miss Rebels (PFEI No. 61) and Rich Rodriguez of the Arizona Wildcats (PFEI No. 46) are in better shape, but strong conference contenders will make for more modest expectations initially as well.
There are three new coaches who might have an immediate impact, because all three are inheriting programs in a position to make a quick recovery. Not all of the pieces are in place, but they each have something to work with.
Ohio State Buckeyes (PFEI No. 8)
New hire: Urban Meyer
Concern: QB pass efficiency
Stat to build on: Field-position advantage
