PE: Discussion - What is handmade to you?Browsing the artisan crafts gallery there's one word I see popping often: "handmade" or "100% handmade". In a world full of mass produced objects and faceless corporations, crafters strive to return the magic and beauty of handmade objects to the world; some buyers show a great appreciation for handmade products, they will go great lengths to find them and are willing to pay a bit more for something that was made with love instead of sweat.However I also see the word handmade being misused. I'm not talking about mass producers or resellers incorrectly labeling their work as handmade to cheat buyers, which is a serious problem on its own. I'm talking about people buying premades, molds, cabochons, or complete pieces, doing some minimal work to it and later calling it "100% handmade". And accepting full praise - and price $$ - for it.I've seen this so much that I've begun to doubt my own definition and wonder what other people consider to be handmade, so I'm reaching out to you, my fel

The history of the birthday cakeOrigin of the birthday cakeIn most parts of the world a birthday is just not a birthday without a cake. I thought it would be interesting to learn how this tradition started and how it transformed from one culture to the other. Cake, the wordThe word Cake goes back to the 13th century. The word is of Viking origin, from the Old Norse "kaka". It is described as a baked flour confection sweetened with sugar or honey; it is mixed with eggs and often includes milk and fat. The cake evolutionCakes were very different from what we know today, in ancient Greece they started off as bread-like, sweetened with honey. In the middle-ages, Germany used a sweetened bread-dough in the shape of baby Jesus to commemorate his birthday. It was later that the Birthday Cake truly emerged as a celebration item

Self-Harm Awareness 2013 Crafty EditionToday, March 1st is Self-Harm Awareness Day, but I think it deserves more than a day. I won't say much about it because other people have already published wonderful articles about it, I recommend that you read Nichrysalis's Fears vs Dreams and BeccaJS' Recovery, both contain a lot of wonderful information and share touching experiences.What I can tell you is this: self-harm is a problem that is often not recognized. It takes many forms, forms that are not recognized even by the person committing it. Self-harm is always a problem, even if you think you have it under control or that it's not serious, it is. If you are currently committing any form of self-harm, or if you suspect anyone else is, reach out for help. Both articles contain links and resources to guide you, and I'm here to talk :iconheartorangeplz:.Make yourself orange! If you have a subscription you can install this beautiful skin::iconl

Want to see what this recipe costs at different supermarkets? Compare in one place here:
- The crostini should be made no more than 15 mins in advance. Slice the bread about ½in thick and brush on some olive oil. Heat a griddle pan and grill the bread in batches until the outsides are crisp and attractively marked by the grill, and the insides are still soft.
- Drape the ham over the largest platter you have – don't lay it flat, allow it to billow slightly. Break the feta by hand into irregular chunks about the size of a walnut, then dot over the ham. Randomly place the olives on the ham and carefully place the rocket leaves across the platter. Just before your guests tuck in, carefully drizzle over a little olive oil followed by the honey. Put the crostini on a separate platter or in a bowl, and serve alongside the salad at the table.

Wonderful flavours, my husband says that he dislikes honey, so i didn't mention it's use in the recipe until after he had eaten loads and complimented me on my efforts!
This will be a lovely evening meal during the warm summer evenings, as I have spent the winter pregnant, looking forward to a small glass of something bubbly with it.

There's nothing more stressful than a baby who cries incessantly. These groundbreaking new treatments just may restore some calm.
My son, he was a crier. He howled in the middle of the night. He wailed during the witching hour. In fact, he started screaming as soon as his eyes popped open. "How can he be pissed already?" I'd wonder. The baby was exhausted. My husband was exhausted. I was looking for a window to jump out of.
Did my son have colic -- a newborn condition loosely described as "excessive crying" that occurs at least three hours a day, three days a week, for three weeks? I didn't know. Colic isn't like an ear infection or pinkeye. You can't just go to the doctor, get a diagnosis, fill a prescription, and move on. Colic is more complicated. Indeed, Barry Lester, Ph.D., who runs the highly respected Colic Clinic at Brown University, in Providence, disputes the colic "rule of threes," preferring instead to call it a "behavior disorder" that interferes with the rest of a baby's life (not to mention his parents'). "We know it's developmentally normal for babies to experience an increase in crying over the first four to six weeks, but colic is about crying way too much and figuring out what might be causing it," says Lester. Adding to the confusion are dozens of products billed as colic remedies: swings (relied on them), vibration (tried it), gripe water (contemplated it), and the list goes on. Many work briefly, and then the baby goes right back to crying. Blessedly, most babies outgrow colic by 3 or 4 months of age, but you may not have to wait that long. Parenting investigates the latest breakthroughs.
Special Formulas
Name any formula and you'll find a baby whose colic has been alleviated because of it -- or at least it would seem. "About one fourth to one third of mothers change formulas within the baby's first six to eight weeks," says Carol Lynn Berseth, M.D., director of medical affairs at the formula manufacturer Mead Johnson Nutrition. "Many moms want to make a change, any change, to see if it will work." Pediatricians generally recommend starting out with a traditional cow's-milk formula, such as Enfamil and Similac, which contain a blend of whey and casein proteins. While the majority of infants do fine on these, colicky babies sometimes benefit from a different variety. Options include formulas that have only whey protein, such as Gerber Good Start Gentle Plus; soy protein, such as Enfamil ProSobee Lipil; or a low-lactose variety like Up & Up Lactose Sensitive. Usually there's no harm in trying a new formula -- just don't switch willy-nilly without talking to your pediatrician, Dr. Berseth notes.
Why they may work for you: A study published last year in the journal Clinical Pediatrics found that fussiness and crying were greatly quelled when the babies were switched to a soy-based or a low-lactose formula. Other studies show that 5 to 15 percent of babies may have a cow's-milk allergy, so for those who have related symptoms like mucus or streaks of blood in their stool, or a scaly rash, a trial of hypoallergenic formula such as Nutramigen or Alimentum is worth attempting, says Robert Baker, Jr., M.D., a pediatric gastroenterologist at Women & Children's Hospital of Buffalo, in New York.

The Kansas City Royals have purchased the contract of third baseman, Mike Moustakas from their Triple-A affiliate in Omaha. He was the Royals' first-round selection -- and the second pick overall -- in the June 2007 amateur free-agent draft from Chatsworth High School in Chatsworth, California. He is the nephew of a former major league hitting coach, Tom Robson.
Despite a slow start, before the promotion Moustakas was hitting .287/.347/.498 for an .845 OPS with 10 home runs and 44 RBIs with Omaha. Last year at two different levels (Double- and Triple-A) he pounded out 36 home runs with a 124 RBIs, finishing with an OPS of .999.

Are people using their Xboxes as PC replacements?
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
Are people using their Xboxes as PC replacements?
Gabe and Valve keep talking about innovation but it's now been nearly 3 years since they floated the piston box prototype and with this new announcement we'll be waiting for another prototype in spring 2014. Exactly how long does it take to build a special purpose PC? That is all this Steam Machine is after all, correct?
The last time I paid attention to what Valve had to say it was Gabe back in 2010 or so talking about how with the Steam platform they would be delivering small incremental updates to Half-Life 2 instead of the "lengthy" episodes or even longer Half-Life 3 box sequels. Sorry Gabe, but 2014 is around the corner meaning it's been 7 years since Half-Life 2 Episode 2. You want the industry to follow your company's lead with Steam and games on demand type development then please lead by example.
Suddenly millions of people cried out at once when they realized they haven't used a PC expansion slot in over 5 years.
The "PC enthusiast" scene has been quietly dying for years.
I'm sure the books were so good that even without the success of the World of Warcraft game this movie would've gotten greenlighted.
Probably waited a little too long. Story went off the rails around Cataclysm. Problems with class imbalances favoring overpowered death knights and paladins are so 2007 and 2008. Even the Mists of Kung-Fu Panda complaints are so last year.
That Cinnamon Control Panel looks very similar to OS X's System Preferences.
You can't trade used games in Steam, either. You'll need to find another example to compare your disappointment with the new Xbox with.
Does the new Xbox One not play games?
Then what's your problem with it? So the new TV features aren't for you, so what? I too play my Xbox 360 on a smaller TV in a bedroom but I do understand that many people have it in their living rooms as an entertainment hub. That doesn't prevent me from playing games the way I want.
Keep an eye on the newer Yahoo mobile apps. I tried the new weather one and was happily surprised. I still use GMail and probably will for a long time forward but I'm watching Yahoo now.
Microsoft is a software company, right?
Demo isn't really a demo, he doesn't open up anything or scroll much, just shows off a bunch of icons.
Sounds like it might be a problem on your phone. I haven't seen this problem at all on iPhones.
A big bang, if you will.
The real revolution was that Apple became a big enough player with the iPod to force the hand of the big 5 of the RIAA to actually offer their music online in digital form for what many people deemed a fair enough price to not pirate. It seems commonplace now in 2013 enough to forget, but in the mid 2000s there were very options for consumers to get their music online, and one could argue this was one of the bigger reasons for online piracy. We see echoes of this still today as the news reported last week that the HBO show Game of Thrones is one of the biggest pirated shows online, and some would argue this is because of consumer's perceived lack of options for watching it online. Apple challenged the old distribution model and won, that's what the story is.
In a way you made my point. There was a time when a PC was the "new shiny". There was a long period of time during PC history when there was no PXE booting and WDS, no AD, no GP, no easy configuration through the network or management tools. But yet it caught on and eventually became what it is now. I look at the large cycle of history of the PC and I see how it replaced the "restrictive" old client-server paradigm in favor of all that local power and freedom on your desktop, only to be retrofitted over the years to go right back where it began with the restricted and confined client-server paradigm. And now we're seeing it start over again with the whole BYOD movement.

Series: Adam, Eve, and Human Population Genetics (6 entries)
From the Archives: Speciation and Macroevolution
A common challenge to evolutionary theory is that while life does indeed change over time (what is known as microevolution), no one has ever seen one species evolve into another species (macroevolution).
Saturday Science Links: December 6, 2014
Many of this week's science links happen at the wondrous intersection of mystery and discovery.
Series: Evolution Basics (50 entries)
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
Series: Creation, Evolution, and the Over-Active Imagination (2 entries)
"The Language of God" Book Club – Chapter 4
Some people who brook no "god of the gaps" arguments anywhere else look to these three moments as more reasonable places to insert God into natural processes: God spoke matter/energy into existence, God made life out of lifeless matter, and God breathed a soul into human beings.
Evolution: What We Know and What We Don't
This entry was originally posted on February 17, 2010. In this video conversation, Jeff Schloss makes the observation that when we use the term "evolution", it is not always exactly clear what we are actually discussing unless we denote the intended usage.
Evolution and Immunity: Same Story?
The evidence suggests that God has chosen to work through a random process, one which involves the routine creation and destruction of millions of cells that never get used. This is the ordinary means by which God maintains our health. The miracles of healing recorded in the Bible are miraculous precisely because they don't occur by this normal, natural process.
Evolution and Christian Faith Grantees Announced
Congratulations to the 37 winners of the Evolution & Christian Faith (ECF) grants competition! ECF is a new BioLogos program designed to support projects and network-building among scholars, church leaders, and parachurch organizations.
Where are the Transitional Fossils?
A common argument leveled against the theory of evolution is that scientists have not been able to produce transitional fossils that show the change of one species into another. In this podcast, we address a common misconception about what transitional fossils actually are.
Series: Science and the Bible (22 entries)
This ongoing series written by historian Ted Davis begins with a brief synopsis of his personal background, and then goes on to reveal his passion for debunking "the now-common view that the history of science and Christianity is one of ongoing, inevitable conflict."
Series: "And God Saw That It Was Good": Death and Pain in the Created Order (6 entries)
The tension generated by our understanding of God's character, as revealed in the Bible, and by the reality of the natural world around us has been the focus of much debate within the Christian church since the first century. This series examines critically several of the proposed solutions to this problem, viewing them from the perspective of a geologist, paleontologist, and orthodox evangelical Christian.
Series: Behe, Lenski and the "Edge" of Evolution (5 entries)
In this series, we reexamine the claim made by Intelligent Design proponent Michael Behe to have found a limit to "Darwinian" evolution in light of recent results from the laboratory of Richard Lenski.
Series: Decoding ENCODE (8 entries)
The BioLogos Foundation explains to the findings of the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) project and responds to the claims that its discoveries challenge the theory of evolution, especially regarding so-called "junk DNA".
Denisovans, Humans and the Chromosome 2 Fusion
The Denisovans, an extinct hominid group that interbred with modern humans, made the news again lately with the publication of a more detailed study of their genome. One of the many interesting findings was that the Denisovans share the same chromosome 2 fusion that modern humans have.
Death and Rebirth: The Role of Extinction in Evolution
When they imagine evolution, many Christians picture novelty: new species arising over time, or speciation events. But as the most recent Southern Baptist Voices exchange makes clear, many Christians also focus on the role of death in evolution—something that can be a stumbling block.
Evolution, Creation, and The Sting of Death: Part 3
It is one thing to say that death is primordial; it is another to view it as the central means of creation. The theological uneasiness about this issue ultimately rests not just on an understanding of God's creative activity, but also on a particular representation of evolution.
Series: Asa Gray and Charles Darwin Discuss Evolution and Design (5 entries)
Many Christians believe that they face a painful choice-- either life was designed by God or it is an evolutionary product of natural selection. Charles Darwin himself believed in this dichotomy, and people ever since have felt the need to "choose sides". However, looking back at history, we find that one of Darwin's chief scientific colleagues, Asa Gray, did not share this perspective. In this three-part essay, part 1 charts the relationship of Asa Gray and Charles Darwin. Part 2 describes Darwin's struggle with the problem of natural evil and design in nature, and part 3 explores how Asa Gray was able to embrace evolution without rejecting the idea of design.
David Lack and Darwin's Finches
Considering the immense popularity of "Darwin's finches", it is quite surprising to learn that Charles Darwin himself had very little to say about them. In fact, it was actually David Lack, one century later, who conducted the critical research that immortalized the finches in biology textbooks and popular lore.

Viral Infections Directory
Viruses cause all types of infections and diseases. Some of the most common viral infections are the common cold, the flu, and warts. Some of the more severe diseases that viruses cause are HIV/AIDS, smallpox, and hemorrhagic fevers like Ebola and Marburg. In order for viruses to cause an infection, they must take their genetic material and hijack normal, living cells to produce more viruses with the same genetic material. Since viruses live inside cells of the body, they are hard to kill. But there are vaccines that can protect humans from many viral infections. Learn more about various viral infections and vaccines.

With piracy odds in their favor, ships shun armed guards
The small number of successful pirate attacks, an increase in military patrols, and legal concerns have kept many firms from hiring security.
Less than half a percent of the ships that transit the Gulf of Aden are attacked by pirates, and of those attacks, less than half are successful.
That statistic, reported during a Senate panel Tuesday in Washington, offers one reason why shipping firms have been unenthusiastic about using armed guards to thwart pirate attacks, leaving the problem to be solved by the US and other militaries.
"Many in the merchant shipping industry continue to assume, unrealistically, that military forces will always be present to intervene if pirates attack. As a result, many have so far been unwilling to invest adequately in basic security measures that would render their ships far less vulnerable," said Michele Flournoy, the Pentagon's chief of policy, at the hearing.
As with the "asymmetrical threat" posed by insurgents on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan, experts have been taken aback by how quickly a small band of pirates can successfully attack large vessels with millions of dollars worth of cargo aboard. One answer is for shippers to provide for their own security, employing armed security crews to man each ship.
But those crews can be expensive and the shippers don't necessarily want to spend the money to hire them. And despite the recent high-profile pirate attacks, shippers recognize the odds are in their own favor and essentially see any ransom they may have to pay as the cost of doing business.
About 33,000 ships sail through the Gulf of Aden each year, and there were just 122 attacks in 2008, according to Pentagon officials at Tuesday's congressional hearing. Of those attacks, only 42 were successful.

A Different Kind of Prey Ch 1It isn't an uncommon thing to find one of my kind bored. I admit it, and unlike some, revel in the irony of it. But, that's beside the point. What is; is that it fueled my curiosity and created a meddlesome nature that was equally as common. Even with this natural quirk, it was considered bad taste to publicly interact with humans. Still, it wasn't totally unheard of and in the olden days it was an ordinary occurrence. It was things like the black plague and having a third of the population die that made us stick to manipulating our own kind or at the very least be more discrete.During my life it seemed that I was the butt of many a joke, probably because I didn't fit into their perfect little world, with unmarked porcelain skin and silky smooth hair.

Write down your short answers to the following before you go into an interview (an entire cheat sheet for these questions and many more are free with my book):
- What are your greatest strengths?
- What are your greatest weaknesses?
- Tell me about yourself.
- How do you handle stress and pressure?
- Describe a difficult work situation and how you overcame it.
- Why are you leaving your current job? (or, Why did you leave your past position?)
3. The interview law of 3s
For your preparation for Nos. 1 and 2 above AND for any other questions asked during the interview, use this major trick, which will help you and the interviewer.
The Law of 3s: For every question, you are allowed no more than three short, concise answers. Think and talk in bullet points. If the interviewer wants more information, he or she will ask you.
This rule will prevent you from babbling on and on, which we do when we are nervous. For the interviewer, you will come across more confident, self-aware and prepared.
4. Prepare great questions for them
The interviewer is not the only one who should have questions. You should have several carefully considered questions for him or her. See an earlier Business Journal article where I give some examples.
Again, congratulations on you securing a phone or face-to-face interview! Block several hours of time to prepare, follow the above tips, and you will do a great job.

Original recipe yields 2 servings

loved the salad but I love all salads. We did not like the dressing as a salaad dressing, too sweet we ate it as a dessert. although looking at the recipe I noticed that I forgot to add the salt. Are you suppose to crush the fresh blueberries as I left them whole.
This salad was so GOOD! Definitely one of my favorites for a lunch or a light dinner, and so easy. The only thing that I changed was I added some cut up chicken to the salad to make it just a little more filling, but followed everything else exactly. The dressing was wonderful, just the right amount of sweetness to it. I made this for dinner tonight, but I know that I will be taking leftovers to work for lunches over the next couple of days. I will be making this one again for sure!

This past weekend, Mitt Romney did what every politician does when they campaign in South Florida, take advantage of our Cuban American hospitality and give us empty rhetoric in return. Sometimes, it is stopping by Versailles and drinking a cortadito; other times, it is eating an empanada, while telling us that if we vote for them they will deliver a free Cuba (yeah, like we never heard that one before). Sometimes, it is trying to flatter our abuelitas with their tacky Spanish -- as if none of us speak English. Almost never do these pandering politicians think they can talk to us about something substantive happening to us right here in Miami, where we live.
Mitt's trip to Hialeah on Sunday was no different. Warm hospitable reception -- check! Posing for the cameras while eating some Latin delicacy (this time it was lechon) -- check! A predictable pitch to do something about the Cuban dictator that has outlasted nine U.S. presidents -- check! Having a close family member address the crowd in Spanish, another check. What was missing? A real conversation about what is really happening to all Miamians and our friends around the country? Mitt will have to get back to us on that one.
Mitt might not notice, but Miamians are still struggling to recover from the recession. In fact, according to a recent study from the Brookings Institute, Miami is one of cities hardest hit by the recession... in the world. At 1Miami, we know how hard the recession has hit our city because our members experience the economic challenge every day. Last week, while Mitt and Newt were circling the state looking for hands to shake and cortaditos to sip, our members hit the streets by the hundreds to demand an economy with good jobs for our hardworking people. We know what won't work because Miami has tried Mitt's solutions before. We've already given the super rich bailouts and blank welfare checks with the promise of good jobs. What did we get in return?
We have a big bank like Wells Fargo in downtown Miami. The same bank that got a multi-billion dollar bailout and pays -1.4% in taxes. But instead of good jobs and vibrant small businesses, Wells became one of the most frequent plaintiffs in foreclosures cases in Miami Dade County. That means more families on the street, less property taxes, and more layoffs of workers that do the jobs that make the city run.
We have two big stadiums, the American Airlines Arena (home of the Miami Heat) and the Miami Marlins stadium. Together they have received over $800 million dollars in taxpayer handouts. Miami Heat owner Micky Arison promised taxpayers that we would see a share of the profits, but we have yet to see a dime. Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria forgot to mention that taxpayers would have to pay $2 million a year in property taxes for the stadium's parking garage. Both deals are under investigation, one by the County and the other by the Feds.
We have big ships in our harbor, owned by Carnival cruise lines, which is owned by Micky Arison. Carnival Cruise Lines is based in Miami, except when it is based in Panama. Being based in a bunch of places means that it pays a global tax rate of 1% and avoids most U.S. labor and tax laws. Carnival does employ about 3,500 South Floridians. Which is a lot until you factor in that the company has 85,000 employees in total (most of them low paid foreign workers) and 45 ships. It could fit every single person it employs in South Florida on one of its ships.
As you can see, all we have to show for all the pampering of the super rich is an economy were hardworking people can barely afford to take the bus to work. We all know that you can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig. That's exactly what Mitt's offering us -- the same ol' greedy pig that got us where we're at today.
Politicians Should Stop Sipping Cortaditos and Wake up and Smell the Real Miami

Love for Oatmeal
by Kath Younger in Uncategorized, January 4, 2012
We're teaming up with fellow food bloggers and healthy eating advocates to host a Healthy Every Week Challenge, a month-long initiative to develop healthy eating habits. The plan an is to develop a manageable healthy habit each week that will carry through the new year. Join us here and share what you're eating on Facebook and Twitter with the hashtag #gethealthy.
My favorite breakfast is a hot bowl of whipped banana oatmeal sprinkled with granola and a spoonful of melty nut butter. I fell in love with oats just after I started blogging the three meals a day I eat at KathEats.com. Oats keep me full with soluble fiber and protein (a serving of oats has as much protein as an egg!) and satisfy my hunger with their volume and creamy texture.. From the unlimited amount of toppings on top of a plain bowl of oatmeal to blended and cooked recipes, nutritious and filling oats never get boring.
My technique for cooking oatmeal minimizes the gelatinous mush you might remember from your childhood and maximizes creaminess. Instead of boiling water and then adding oats, I add equal parts milk (any kind), water and oats along with a pinch of salt and set to medium heat. Stir as needed and your oats will be extra creamy in less than 5 minutes. Many factors work together to reduce gelatinization and let the oats release their creamy starches: agitation from stirring, milk proteins and a lower temperature. I use old fashioned rolled oats in my recipes because I find them to be creamier than the steel cut variety, but if you're a steel cut fanatic, Alton Brown has mastered that technique.
Whipped Banana Oatmeal
By far my most popular recipe is my whipped banana oatmeal. A few years ago my husband put a banana into our pot of oats and stirred and stirred. The product was magical – naturally sweetened oatmeal with a super creamy texture. Ever since we have been thinly slicing bananas and stirring them into oats made with half milk, half water and a pinch of salt. Oatmeal without banana is just not the same!
A great way to enjoy oats in thousands of different ways is to experiment with toppings and mix-ins.
Some favorite foods to mix near the end of cooking in include: canned pumpkin, cooked grains like wheat berries, chia seeds, cottage cheese, brewed tea, a whole egg, egg nog, flavored milk or yogurt.
Topping ideas are endless: Nuts, seeds, dried fruit, fresh fruit, Greek yogurt, granola, nut and seed butters, jams, coconut flakes or coconut butter, a fried egg, crumbled bacon, flavored syrups and more.
You can see hundreds of topping ideas on my Tribute To Oatmeal page.
Overnight Oats
If you're short on time in the mornings or don't want to dirty a pot, overnight oats might suit your fancy. Instead of using heat to soften the oats, the overnight recipe allows them to soak in moisture. Mix together equal parts milk, yogurt and oats in a container and store in fridge overnight. In the morning, add fruit or toppings as you wish and enjoy cold.
Oatmeal Smoothies
Raw or cooked oats transform smoothies from snacks into meals. The addition of whole grains (including their fiber!) means your smoothie will be more satisfying. Raw oats give smoothies a wonderful doughy texture – soak your smoothie ingredients together before blending to get the ultimate dough-boy flavor. I like to add ¼ – 1/3 cup oats to my smoothies and pour them in a bowl to eat with a spoon. Eating my smoothies soup-style means my breakfast lasts longer and the addition of some crunchy toppings gives each bite a variety of textures.
Raspberry Blast Oat Smoothie (above)
Pumpkin Graham Oat Smoothie (above)
Oats give wonderful texture to pancakes as well. You can either blend them in a food processor to create a sweet whole-grain flour or add them to pancake mixes or recipes to give your 'cakes some texture. This recipe for Oatmeal Cookie Pancakes by Rachael Ray makes for one delicious breakfast.
And of course, if cookies brighten your day, you can have oats for dessert too.

H.R. 3696, the "National Cybersecurity and Critical Infrastructure Protection Act of 2013" is a bipartisan bill designed to address more comprehensive cybersecurity issues and to codify existing U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) cyber efforts with critical infrastructure. This move represents the long-awaited effort by the Committee to address broader cyber concerns by the Committee.
Last week, the Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-VT) and Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Chairman Tom Carper (D-DE) announced they would each reintroduce data security legislation in the wake of the Target Corporation cybersecurity breach, which recent reports say has affected 70 million people. Senator Leahy reintroduced "The Personal Data Privacy and Security Act," a bill focused on protecting Americans' personal information and privacy. At the same time, Senator Carper plans to reintroduce legislation that would create a national reporting standard for data breaches, similar to the Target breach, that could apply to both financial institutions and retailers. The recent admission by Neiman Marcus that they have also suffered a data breach will provide increased reinforcement for the need for the legislation this session. Both pieces of legislation have been offered as amendments to previous comprehensive cybersecurity bills, however these bills could move as stand-alone bills this session, which could make action somewhat easier. The Senate Banking Committee has also announced plans to hold a hearing on the Target cyber breach as well.
Several administration officials weighed in last week, on the development of the final cybersecurity framework. White House Cybersecurity Coordinator, Michael Daniel specifically commented on the program's process and believes "the program won't spring forth fully developed, but it will be operational right around the time the final framework finally comes out." In addition, Suzanne Spaulding, the deputy secretary for National Protection and Programs Directorate at DHS, explained the agency's key focus will be to assist the private sector when using the framework to improve their cybersecurity. While, no cybersecurity legislation has seen any real movement, both correspondents remained supportive of the program moving forward without such legislation.
President Barak Obama met with NSA officials and leaders in the intelligence community last week in preparation for making any final decisions on any surveillance matters. The President is expected to weigh in on many of the task forces' recommendations such as the NSA's collection of American's phone records, additional scrutiny on the National Intelligence Priorities Framework, as well as a new safeguard requiring the administration to obtain judicial approval before reviewing citizen's financial or phone records. The White House has indicated they will highlight which recommendations will be implemented, which require further study, and those they will not pursue. While the White House has not specified a date when they will release President Obama's highly anticipated decision, some believe it could be as soon as Thursday.

KB Back In Business
Former Sheffield United and Leeds United boss Kevin Blackwell is back in management after accepting the vacant role at League One Bury.
Blackwell, 53 replaces Richie Barker as maanger of Bury who left the Shackers to take up the managerial role at Crawley Town. He had not been in management employment since August 2010 when he left Sheffield United following a 3-0 home defeat to Queens Park Rangers.
The former keeper has previously spent a spell at Gigg Lane as Neil Warnock's Assistant-Manager before the pair moved to S2 in December 1999.
We wish Kevin all the best in his new role.

"Ordered these (not as "thank you" but as a "hello!" note) for my 11 year-old niece's b-day. She's not into flower and typical girly stuff, so this design was perfect for her. It came out beautiful. I do wish, though, that TinyPrints would offer boxes for their products. The "presentation" factor for the stationary as a gift isn't great. I'm going to pull it all out of the plastic & wrap in a ribbon, but wish there was a proper sized box that I could buy in which my niece could keep the stationary."
"Love this for my little one on the way. I will certainly be getting the matching announcements once she makes her arrival! The pink and gray are the colors I have chosen for her nursery too so it worked great!"
"Looks exactly like on the picture. The quality of the print and paper is great. So happy to be able to send thank-you cards matching my baby shower invitations."
"I have always enjoyed receiving great, personalized, handwritten notes from folks - it means a great deal. The last one I received was made by tinyprints - so I decided to make my own. It took a while to find the right one for me, but I'm happy where I landed. The finished product is really sharp looking. The paper is nice quality, the printing is neat and professional. The options for personalization are just enough to let you make it yours and not let you ruin it:)"
"just used these as personalized thank you notes for my son. I bought them to coordinate w/ Frog Friend birth announcement. I made them more boyish by changing the font on the front. Beautiful and preppy"

MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- Klay Thompson erased a previous bad outing by scoring early and in the process helped himself accomplish a first in his NBA career.
Thompson scored 30 points Saturday night and the Golden State Warriors ended an 11-game losing skid to Memphis, defeating the short-handed Grizzlies 108-82.
"I've been in this league three years, and I haven't beaten them in three years," said Thompson, who was limited to five points in a loss at Houston on Friday. "So, to finally get a win, the way we did, it felt great to win big like that."
David Lee added 23 points for the Warriors and Stephen Curry scored 20 of his 22 points in the second half, despite shooting 7 of 16 on the night. Curry matched his career-best with 15 assists, two more Memphis' team total.
"Klay was hot early, and we had some matchups we wanted to attack," Curry said. "On pick-and-rolls, they were basically trapping and trying to get the ball out of my hands. You can't force anything, so you trust your teammates to make plays."
Mike Miller led the Grizzlies with 16 points, while Jon Leuer and Zach Randolph added 15 points each. Mike Conley finished with 12 points, but was 4 of 12 from the field, part of Memphis shooting 37 percent. Kosta Koufos had 10 points and 16 rebounds.
Memphis played without starters Marc Gasol and Tony Allen, plus Ed Davis, who had moved into the starting lineup. Then in the second quarter, Memphis lost Quincy Pondexter, who started for Allen, to a right midfoot sprain.
"We've got to step it up," Randolph said of the injuries. "We've just got to come out and play hard. It's tough."
Lee had 11 rebounds and Andrew Bogut grabbed 12 boards to help Golden State outrebound Memphis 47-40 while shooting 50 percent. Memphis was limited to 2 of 10 from beyond the arc as the Warriors rebounded from Friday's 105-83 loss at Houston.
"I think we showed who we truly are," Warriors coach Mark Jackson said. "We've been upset with the way we've played. We came in here against a team that we had not had much success, or any success at all against, and got a quality win."
Thompson got the Warriors started early, connecting on 7 of 9 shots in the first quarter, including a pair of 3-pointers. That helped Golden State build its lead to as many as 16 points in the first half. And Jackson was going to make sure Memphis didn't get any momentum.
"It was the first time in my career that I was locked and loaded to call an early timeout," Jackson said. "Fortunately, it didn't have to take place because of the way we came out."
Meanwhile, the Grizzlies' injury woes continued to build when Pondexter went to the locker room in the latter stages of the half and did not return.
The Warriors' defense and a short Memphis bench allowed Golden State to stop the Grizzlies after halftime. Memphis was 3 of 18 to start the third quarter and had three turnovers in the first 9 minutes of the stanza.
At that point, Golden State had matched its largest lead at 69-53, and the Grizzlies were dragging.
"We need to go out there and take an attitude of competing our tails off and letting the chips fall where they may," Memphis coach Dave Joerger said, "and not worrying about anything on the periphery."
Game notes
The Warriors' last victory in the series was Nov. 3, 2010. Golden State had not won in Memphis since April 4, 2008. ... Curry's 3-pointer with 10:48 left in the third moved him past Jason Richardson as the Warriors top 3-point shooter. Richardson had 700 from outside the arc. Curry has 701. ... The Warriors were 0-4 in the second game of back-to-backs this season before Saturday's victory. ... Curry had led Golden State in scoring the past five games. However, he did keep his streak of leading the Warriors in assists. He has led the team in eight straight. ... Miller led the Grizzlies in scoring, becoming the eighth player to lead Memphis in scoring the past eight games.

Estimate of Dowry for Girls family
RE: RE: Estimate of Dowry for Girls family
RE: Siri's comments
Would you buy the wedding ring - then feel aggrieved about how much it cost?
Sure, where a "farang" is involved, a family does expect monies to be substantial, sure. You can obviously afford to travel to this country for holiday, pleasure or business, spend enough time there to meet and "fall in love" with a thai lady.
RE: RE: Siri's comments
RE: "Good Medicine For Thai Fever"
information and perspective : which are
some of the most worthwhile in this Forum. I bought that book at Asia Books
- they have it at most of their stores.
You make a good point about looking after parents. It's just that in a lot of farang countries this is done by the government, or other institutions. Our family system is not nearly as strong as in Thailand - as a result of our history.
But the Thai way is probably better - especially for bringing up young children.
RE: RE: Siri's comments
We're not all rich like you !!!
RE: RE: Siri's comments
RE: RE: Siri's comments
Yes, you would be stupid to buy unnecessary things for any of them if they do not earn them.
RE: RE: Siri's comments
RE: RE: Dowry - Symbols
To put it bluntly she is second hand! dowries have been paid etc. The family and the girl will be just as happy to find a man who wants to care for her and child. In Thailand no social funds to to keep and feed them.
Her new man will give her a future which will nearly always result in a better life here or somewhere else. She if happy will not require a large expense to show off to the neighbours. althrough it can help to put on a show, fully refundable of course.
Or has she forgot what the nieghbours said about her when she went to Pattaya in the first place?
Forget the traditions she did when she first said yes. THE EASY WAY IS TO MARRIED AWAY FROM THE VILLAGE. and visit six months later have a family party perhaps a meal in a hotel( a very rare treat for her family, they will be scared out of their boxes). never build a house in her village, if you gonna live with her in Thailand make sure there is about 25kms between family and yourselves. Then you won;t have to feed everybody. and when you visit you will always be treated with respect. a little something a new trailer, tractor engine or a new motorcycle every six months, or replace the tin roof, build a toliet, or buy a couple of pigs every now and then, will work much better than expensive weddings. and will stop the greed and only for ma and pa do you do this for. The wife and I have done this, married for 7 years lived in Thailand for 3 yrs, 70/30 per cent earnings for PA and MA to look after our farm.
Couldn't ask for a better family and the respect we receive from other relatives. and we have our own life style without problem. they can visit when they want and the same for us. any problems we are only 30 mins away. My wife will spend the day there or they will visit us, we always have a house/baby sitter not far away.
If your woman wants the lot, is she really gonna stop after the wedding?

Davies: Forest must be clinical
10 May 2010 - 12:48:45
Boss Billy Davies is confident that his Nottingham Forest side can see off Blackpool to reach the Championship play-off final, as long as they take their chances at the City Ground.
Forest lost out 2-1 in the first leg at Bloomfield Road, having passed up a number of opportunities before the Seasiders roared back from a goal behind.
Davies told the Evening Post: "We should have unpicked Blackpool, we should have scored three or four. If we had done that, we would have been in a much better position, obviously.
"In the first 45 minutes we were excellent, we hit the bar and had a couple cleared off the line. We also had a dozen chances in total.
"It typified the away performances we have had, in that we had not played too bad in the first half, but were not clinical.
"That has been the same story in the last eight or nine away games."
