Ok....I have been weighing all my options to leap into allgrain....something I havent seen posted is an idea I just had....has anybody ever used a grain bag , such as you would use in a biab process.in a mash tun ?(aka the 10 gallon cooler) then after you mash for 1 to 1.5 hours you just pop the drain , drain ....then sparge...this way there would be no need for a false bottom. I feel I could make any size bag....or even a stailess steel screen to line the cooler...what the heck even both...has this been done with any success??....thankx from the newbie on the block...Tom
Why not just go with BIAB if you're wanting to do it like that?
That is the way I do it. Works fine for me I got tired of all those damn buckets. I use an extra large nylon bag and a ten gallon Coleman cooler.
Where do you find bags big enough ?
you can buy a sheer voile curtain from wallmart for like 5$, Thats what I use, then sew up the top. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Mainstays-...-Panel/3861733 and it fits a 20.5 gallon pot easily
I was thinking of doing this a while ago. An effective filter and replacement to a braid or a false bottom. @ DoubleAught This way you wouldn't have the space limitations you get from BIAB.
That is what I'm putting together now, but looking to recirculate the cooler too.
I assume a sewing machine is required ? I don't have one unfortunately.

An Iranian judge has summoned Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg to answer allegations his company's apps have breached people's privacy.
In a case that underscores the gulf between Iranian moderates, who seek fewer internet restrictions, and conservatives who want more, the Silicon Valley leader has been dubbed the "Zionist manager" of Facebook, on account of his Jewish heritage.
The court in Fars province ordered that Zuckerberg address unspecified "violation of privacy" claims made by Iranians over the reach of Facebook-owned apps, ISNA news agency reported on Tuesday.
Access to social networks, including Twitter and Facebook, are routinely blocked by Iranian authorities, as are other websites considered un-Islamic or detrimental to the regime.
"Based on the judge's verdict, the Zionist manager of Facebook ... should report to the prosecutor's office to defend himself and make compensation for damages," Rouhollah Momen-Nasab, a senior Iranian internet security official, told ISNA.
"Following a complaint lodged by some of our fellow countrymen over the violation of their privacy and problems ensuing from WhatsApp and Instagram, the judiciary official has ordered a ban on these two software devices," he said.
Facebook owns Instagram and WhatsApp.
The report did not say what violations of privacy are alleged to have occurred.
President Hassan Rouhani, a self-declared moderate, has promised greater tolerance on social, cultural and media issues — a vow that helped him defeat conservatives in last year's election.
But his fledgling push has been opposed by traditionalists and ultra-conservatives that hold sway in the establishment and key institutions.

They used to have to wait until police secured the scene before going in. "Now, we're not waiting anymore," Schroeder said. "We're getting in and getting people treatment instead of letting people lay there. And it's saving lives."
Schroeder has the ability to separate his emotions from the difficult sights in order to get the job done, he said. "Between here and the sheriff's office, I've seen just about everything a person can see in a career," he said.
Closer together than ever
Technology also is playing a bigger role in firefighter training.
About a year ago, Schroeder pushed to get computers in the firetrucks, which he thinks will prove their worth down the line. Fire departments now videotape their work for training firefighters to watch.
Another emerging challenge is responding to crashes involving electric hybrid cars, with high voltage presenting a risk in cutting people out of the car.
"There's things like that that are constantly changing, and you have to move with it," Schroeder said.
But technology is not the only thing changing the face of the job.
The Sept. 11 attacks and the Boston bombings have changed how the work feels.
"I think it drew every firefighter and cop in this country closer together in everything that we do," he said.
When Schroeder looks at his career, he feels fortunate to have been able to pursue both firefighting and law enforcement.
"When I walk away from here I'll have had a very successful and happy career," he said. "I wouldn't change anything."

An Easter Dash - Reviews in ShortEaster Dots come in one of the happiest looking boxes I've seen in a long time. They're also crazy cheap, most of the time a theater box like this that holds 7 ounces is just a buck. When I looked at the flavors on this box I was a little confused about what made these an Easter version besides the box (Mike and Ike come in holiday boxes that are the exact same candy). The flavors are Blueberry, Lemon, Lime, Cherry and Orange. The flavors of the classic Dots box are Strawberry, Lemon, Lime, Cherry and Orange. So in this version the Strawberry has been swapped for Blueberry. These were very fresh. Tootsie does a good job of sealing up the boxes well and Dots have a clear cellophane overwrap. Once I opened the box I found out the big difference, it's the color. Easter Dots are bright and opaque little nubbins. Well, maybe there was another difference. These seem to be just as smooth but have a "shorter" chew to them, so they didn't stick to my teeth like Dots usually do. I liked the freshness of the flavors, though it's a little bland it's also soothing. The blueberry was pretty convincing though I wish that one replaced the cherry instead of the strawberry. Rating: 6 out of 10 I've been searching all over for these for the past month and finally found them at Whole Foods yesterday ... not with the candy but at the end of the cereal aisle. Divine Milk Chocolate Speckled Eggs are all natural and fair trade milk chocolate eggs with a candy shell. They're freakishly expensive at $4.99 for 3.5 ounces, far more than I'd be willing to pay on a regular basis. I really only bought them because I'd been searching so hard for them it seemed weird to find them and then get decide they were too expensive. The chocolate is made from beans from the Kuapa Kokoo cocoa cooperative in Ghana. Seems like Easter is one of those holidays where folks may want to pay more attention to the social responsibility behind the treats. The stand up box is charming. Inside is a little clear cellophane bag with a little more than a handful of eggs. They're very similar to Cadbury Mini Eggs. The shape is more football than pear. They beautiful muted colors and a matte finish. The shell is smooth and softly decorated. The shell is quite thick and crunchy. The chocolate inside has a silky melt, a little sticky with a good caramelized dairy note. I liked them a lot and will probably buy them again next year. Hopefully they can be found in larger packages for better value. (Also, Whole Foods could do a better job of putting them where people can find them. I went to three different stores and it wasn't until the fourth circuit of the one at 3rd & Fairfax that I found them - even after asking a stockperson.) Rating: 7 out of 10 The Sour Patch Bunnies are like many other Easter versions of regular candies. As you can imagine these are little bunny shaped candies instead of being shaped like spiky haired children. I liked the box a lot, it was easy to tell apart from the regular Sour Patch offerings. The only quibble is really the packaging. Like many theater box candies, inside the box the candy is inside a plain cellophane bag. As I mentioned above, the Dots are just tumbling around in the box and there's a cellophane seal on the outside. For this version I have to open the box top completely to get the bag out, dump the candy into the box and then I'm faced with an opening that is really too large for dispensing. They're a little lighter in color compared to the Sour Patch Kids. Honestly, I prefer this. They're colored enough that I can tell them apart and guess the flavor and that's really all I need. Other than that, the shape was so vague, unless you told me these were bunnies I wouldn't have known. Pink is the classic Swedish Fish flavor with a tangy coating. Green is lime, yellow is lemon and orange is orange. A biting sour coating, a chewy sweet jelly candy in the center ... they're great. Rating: 7 out of 10 I bought this Russell Stover Peanut Butter Pastelle Rabbit online from Russell Stover. I just couldn't find it in the stores and thought it was a unique product. The rabbit is similar to the white chocolate one I tried last year (and didn't like that much, so I wonder why I was curious about this one). It's a peanut butter coating (like peanut butter baking chips) with a peanut butter filling. The three ounce flat rabbit is nicely molded. The butterscotch color is also really appealing. It smells like vanilla pudding and peanut butter. The coating though is a bit waxy and stiff, it melts but not in a dreamy way that good white chocolate does. But it's not too sweet, which is a relief as well. The filling is a crumbly peanut butter with a salty note and a dry grainy crunch. I kind of got into it. I'd prefer it in a smaller format though, maybe one of the smaller eggs they do. Rating: 6 out of 10. Brach's Classic Jelly Bird Eggs are cheap jelly beans. I don't know what classic is, the package gives no indication what the flavors are. They're only 99 cents for a generous 9 ounce bag. Even at that bargain price, they're not much of a deal. They're pretty enough to look at and probably decorate with, but they're inconsistent in flavor and execution. I also resent not knowing what's inside. It's not like the bag is tiny and has no room for information like the flavor array. White is pineapple. It's sweet and floral but bland. Green is lime and rather strong but lacking zest. Purple is grape and is utterly stupid ... seriously, it tastes like sweet stupidity. Black is licorice. All of the black ones seemed to be smaller than the other jelly beans. Still, they were tasty and well done. Pink is bitter and just dreadful. Perhaps it's strawberry. Red is not as bitter but still dreadful. Orange is sweet and empty. Finally there's yellow, which is actually pretty good, it's like a sugared lemon peel. Rating: 4 out of 10 So as annoying as I found the Classic beans, you'd think I would be happy with the Brach's Spiced Jelly Bird Eggs which are quite clear on the front that they feature spice flavors. I was hoping for rich flavors, but of course I know Brach's well enough that I really won't be getting much more than a decent looking product. The bag doesn't promise much more than a good value, so I should probably adjust my expectations. Red is a mild cinnamon, not as good as Hot Tamales and kind of tinged with some of the mint notes, but still pleasant like a cup of spiced chai. White is peppermint. I have to say that a peppermint jelly bean is a little odd especially since it's so grainy but still fresh tasting. Pink is wintergreen which I really love except when there's too much food dye like this one that has a weird bitter clove & plastic aftertaste - but at moments it's kind of like root beer. Purple is clove and is actually mild enough for me to enjoy though true clove lovers will probably be disappointed. Orange is sweet and again lacking in any pizazz. Black is again licorice and pretty good (though it makes my tongue dark green). I think the problem is that I've already had some pretty good spice jelly beans from Hot Tamales (Just Born) and there's really no need to switch brands, the price is comparable, availability is the only issue.

The All American Chocolate Bunny BattleThe cornerstone of an Easter Basket is the chocolate bunny. There are many to choose from and most often it's about how it looks. I picked up three foil wrapped milk chocolate rabbits of similar size for a little comparison. All were about the same price, between $3.99 and $4.49 (though prices vary from store to store, I picked all mine up at Target before the good sales started). All are American made, all are milk chocolate and all are Kosher. In the running are: Cadbury Dairy Milk Solid Milk Chocolate Bunny, Hershey's Bliss Hollow Smooth & Creamy Milk Chocolate Bunny and Dove Fairy Bunny Silky Smooth Hollow Milk Chocolate Bunny. Each is similar in size, thought the Cadbury bunny is solid so weighs a little more. Though they come in boxes, I'm not sure they'd go into the Easter basket that way. So here they are out of their boxes. I found all of them to be overpackaged, especially considering how many chocolate rabbits (Lindt is most notable) that are sold simply wrapped in foil without a box or plastic form shield. Side by side it's easy to see how the different milk chocolates are vastly different colors. Cadbury is the lightest and has an orange hue. Hershey's Bliss is the darkest and from my reading of the ingredients and nutrition label it has the least fat (more milk solids and sugar). They're all three dimensional bunnies with nice molds. They were all pretty much flawless out of their wrappers as well. The Cadbury Dairy Milk Solid Milk Chocolate Bunny is made in the United States by Hershey's from imported "chocolate crumb" from Cadbury's facilities in the UK (at least that's what I learned via the NYTimes in 2007). The ingredients are different than the UK Cadbury Dairy Milk. There is no additional vegetable fat in there, but it does contain PGPR, an additional emulsifier often used in less expensive chocolate. (If you're curious about the differences between the UK and US Dairy Milk, check out this head to head comparison.) Sugar, milk chocolate, cocoa butter, lactose, soy lecithin, PGPR, natural and artificial flavor They all came with a crazy amount of packaging, the Cadbury bunny's box was more than two inches taller than the rabbit inside. But it's a generous size, a full six ounces which at the selling price of $4.49 it was the best value of the bunch. The rabbit is a rather realistic representation, no anthropomorphism by the designers. It's a classic sitting rabbit with high ears. The foil is great, the only one of the bunch that has a design on both sides. (The wrapping style is kind of like a chocolate coin, the two sides are a heavy printed foil and have a seam all the way around.) The fact that he could be seated facing either way was a great feature, especially if you're designing an Easter basket for a particular tableau. My Cadbury bunny was soft, even though my house was a cool 68 degrees. Biting off the ears was pretty easy, but after that I had to take a knife to him and give him a few quick jabs to break him up. The chocolate has strong caramelized sugar and yogurty dairy notes. The texture is sticky as it melts though not as sweet as I expected at first. The cocoa is mild and woodsy ... it's the classic dairy milk chocolate I think most people are familiar with. It's a little grainy and gritty. I was a little irritated at how hard it was to eat, requiring a knife or the unsanitary gnawing. But he was lovely. Here are some more shots I took if you want to see some other views: The Hershey's Bliss Hollow Smooth & Creamy Milk Chocolate Bunny was a little confusing. There were two products on the shelves at Target from Hershey's (here's where I picked all of these up). There was this Bliss bunny, which I thought was a good comparison to the Dove one, and then an identically molded one that was just "Hershey's" but with a blue bow instead of a lavender one (I photographed the back of the package for later comparison). The Hershey's Bliss one has no PGPR like the Cadbury or classic Hershey's recipe, but of course a price tag to match (in this case a dollar more). The Bliss bunny wins for the least amount of packaging, if you can call this winning. Inside the box was a formed plastic piece that went over the front-facing side of the bunny but like the others, there was a lot of empty space in that box. Bliss is a relatively new chocolate line from Hershey's, it was introduced barely two years ago with a parallel line of products and pricing structure to the Dove line. The packaging and foil wrapping doesn't quite rise to the level of elegance or chic sophistication that Lindt, Godiva and Dove have been perfecting for so long. But it's what's inside that matters ... well, in the case of hollow chocolate bunnies, it's what's inside the foil that matters, the really inside is nothingness. Bliss was the lightest bunny in the bunch at only 4 ounces. The shape is of a bunny on its hind legs, front legs kind of up in a begging position. She's not carrying a basket or anything. The molding is nice, the details are pretty good, especially on the ears. I don't care much for the design of it but the shape is good. It feels substantial, which is important to kids. It's not easy to put a thumb through the side or anything. The Bliss bunny had an excellent sheen. It broke nicely and wasn't too soft. The bunny itself had thick sides, but not too thick that breaking it was difficult. (I actually like hollow bunnies more as I get older - I like the illusion or size but the ease of portioning.) The chocolate was smooth and creamy, with a rich milky flavor with a little Hershey's twang, but not too much. It's sweet but not throat-searing and not at all gritty or grainy. I liked it much better than the Hershey's rabbit I had last year and better than the Bliss foil wrapped pieces. Here are more photos to give you a sense of the scale, wrapping and molding: The final rabbit is the Dove Fairy Bunny Silky Smooth Hollow Milk Chocolate Bunny. This one diverges from the classic rabbit shape and goes a little into the weird territory. This bunny has fat, fat butterfly wings (I don't know how some conservative folks feel about mixing fairies with Easter). The box has the most packaging, a clamshell formed clear plastic piece that protects the bunny and holds it in place. It did its job well, as my bunny looked great in and out of the foil. The back of the box has a poem about the Fairy Bunny, a poem that tells the story of this magical Easter bunny who has a product placement deal with Dove. This ingredients looked okay, there's PGPR in there but it comes after the flavorings. (I've been told that PGPR is great for manufacturers because it makes molding easier.) The Dove bunny is by far the best looking one in and out of the foil, but definitely on the feminine side with its lavender wing accents and luscious eyelashes. (Even the whiskers look feline-sexy.) It's a squat bunny, so it doesn't feel quite as decadent as the Bliss one, even though it weighs a half an ounce more at 4.5 ounces. The walls of the chocolate were inconsistent. Some spots were thick and beefy, others, like the sides and bottom away from the edges were quite thin. The bunny has a soft milky and woodsy scent, not too sweet. The texture of the chocolate is creamy and smooth. As I had my bunny open for tasting for a couple of weeks, I noticed that the flavor profile changed. I've noticed this with molded items that have a lot of surface area, and especially with chocolate that has PGPR. The flavor gets a little rancid ... not full on "my goodness, this is spoiled" but a subtle "this was better last week". So I found myself gravitating, much to my surprise, to the Bliss bunny. This bunny still wins for its looks, here are some more glamor shots: On the whole, all three are good quality. They're expensive by the ounce when you compare it to other chocolate like little foil wrapped pieces or big bars. But they're also a special item for an Easter basket, gifting or just using as a decorative item. I suggest going for the chocolate you like ... but sometimes aesthetics trumps taste. Don't forget to check out your local chocolate shop though - there's something special about buying local from a company that molds their bunnies on site. Related Candies

Swedish Fish EggsSeems like everyone's getting into Easter versions of their popular candies. Cadbury-Adams has quite a few new varieties including Sour Patch Eggs and Sour Patch Bunnies (which I bought & will review soon) but the more innovative one appeared to be Assorted Swedish Fish Eggs. The package is more than quirky. The little red Swedish fish is sporting white and pink bunny ears and a little talking bubble says, "What, you've never heard of Candiar?" The package notes that it also includes Swedish Fish but it didn't elaborate beyond that. Inside it's not a large amount of candy for a theater box. It's 3.1 ounces, which means that the inner cellophane bag takes up less than a third of the volume of the box. The assortment is a mix of the small Swedish fish and the little "eggs" which are half inch hemispheres. They come in three or four flavors/colors. Orange, lemon, lime and "Swedish Fish" flavor. When I took the picture I didn't know there was a difference between the light green eggs and the aqua eggs. The Swedish Fish and the aqua eggs are the same berry flavor. Sweet, tangy and jammy. The lemon eggs are mild, as are the orange ones. Not much zest or juice to it, but still an ultra smooth chewy gel. The lime ones were surprising and more sweet as far as I could tell and more zesty. On the whole they were fun, the teensy eggs were different but took away from the interactive part of eating a regular size Swedish Fish (biting & pulling it apart). These are made in Canada but there's no allergen statement on the box. They contain no animal products, nut products or apparent gluten ingredients but you may want to check with Cadbury directly. They also may be vegan, depending on how you feel about eating mineral oil. (There's no glaze or dairy in it.) Related Candies

LifeSavers Gummies: Bunnies & EggsThe new LifeSavers Gummies Bunnies & Eggs are charming little Easter themed gummis that come in five different shapes and six different flavors. The bag has the old LifeSavers logo and design elements to it (the rolls are rather different these days). It also features the bug-eyed bunny that appears on the Jelly Beans. The flavors are Lemon, Apple, Orange, Tangy Cherry, Tangy Punch and Watermelon. All the candies are sherbet colors, soft, opaque pastels. They're bouncy and squishy, not quite greasy but they definitely cling together readily. I expected them to be big, about the same size as the hoops known as LifeSavers Gummies, which themselves are larger than the hard candy version. Instead they're actually smaller than the little images on the package. These cute and plump little shapes are barely the size of a traditional gummi bear. (I threw an M&M in there for you to see the scale.) Blue is Tangy Punch - it reminds me of Hawaiian Punch. It's tangy of course and has an artificial flavor to go with the tropical fruit. Green is Apple - it's far less tart than I expected. A little like apple juice. Orange is Orange - it looks like sherbet and tastes rather like it too, soft and mellow with a light sour note but mostly a juice flavor. Red is Watermelon - at first I thought it'd be cherry. The watermelon reminded me of Jolly Ranchers in the best possible way. Fresh, a little more intensely fruity than the real melon and of course an artificial version of the actual flavor. Lemon is Yellow - I didn't care much for this one, it had a metallic note, like drinking lemonade in a can. Pink is Tangy Cherry - this is not the cherry I associate with LifeSavers. It's far too mild and though it's called Tangy Cherry, it's not terribly sour at all. On the whole they're adorable, rather mild but nothing extraordinary. Gummis for Easter aren't that common, so it's nice to see a themed product. There is no allergen statement on the package but it does contain gelatin and of course artificial colors & flavors. It doesn't say anything about gluten or nuts. Related Candies

Wonka Squishy Sploshberries GummiesThe third new product in Wonka's Edible Garden line of gummies is called Squishy Sploshberries Gummies Candy. As the name implies, they're berry flavored gummies and they have sploshy centers. What I found most interesting about them, as the gooey center has been done quite a bit already, is the flavor array. These aren't ordinary berries. Though there's no Snozzberry the flavors are: Raspberry, Blueberry, Goji Berry and Cloud Berry. Like the other new Wonka gummis, these are made in the Czech Republic and boast no artificial flavors or colors. Each piece is about the same diameter as a nickel (about 3/4"). They're high and domed candies. They're not greasy to the touch, just soft and matte. They have a translucent amber colored gummi top with a dark red fruity goo center and it all sits on an opaque white base. The texture is soft and chewy, with a good latexy bounce to it. The molding of each of the pieces is great and for filled gummies, I was pleased to see that none of them had oozed in the bag. The goo reservoir in the center is rather small, just a little dab. It's also not liquid, more of a jelly so it's more moist than the rest of the gummi, but not a flowing syrup. Raspberry (far right) is vivid and jammy. It's not quite specific enough to be exclusively a raspberry, sometimes I thought it was more like a blackberry with a little black cherry note to it. Blueberry (middle) is also lightly tangy. The unique flavors come from the goo center. It's a little more tannic, more like it has notes of black tea mixed with the more vanilla berry flavors. Cloud Berry - I've never eaten a cloud berry so I can't talk about the authenticity of the flavor. What I can say is that it pretty much tastes like all the other gummis in this assortment. It might have a little note of green apple, but it's very pleasant and a little more custard-like, probably because of the white kind of marshmallowy base. This was the most prevalent flavor in the bag, so I had quite a few of them. Goji Berry - a little more woodsy than the others in the mix. It's only lightly tart with a vague rosemary or herby note to it, like chewing on fibery goji berries. I was hoping these would be a little more vibrant, that they'd have a little more pizazz. Wonka candies are usually known for being bold. Candies like Nerds and Runts are very specific. These were kind of tame. I appreciate the risks of making a naturally flavored & colored product and the unusual actual berry flavors instead of made up flavors. On the other side of that coin, all the flavors went together really well so it's not like I noticed getting a "bad" flavor. The allergen info on the bag has all the hot targets on it: made on shared equipment with peanuts, nuts, soy, milk, wheat and eggs. Also, it contains gelatin so it's not vegetarian friendly.

Hershey-etsLong before Hershey's came out with Kissables, they had a product called Hershey-ets. They were introduced in 1954 and were pretty much direct competitors to M&Ms. They never quite took off so by 1978 the machinery for Hershey-ets was turned over to the Reese's Pieces project and Hershey-ets were only made seasonally. My personal memories of these candy covered chocolate lentils are pretty vague. I know that I could get them at Hershey Park in little vending machines for a dime or quarter for a handful. (Not to be confused with the machines that dispensed duck food.) The only reliable time, for many years, to find Hershey-ets was around the holidays when they were sold in Christmas colors and found in bags in the baking aisle or in these cute little clear plastic canes. Then the disappeared in 2006 with the introduction of Kissables (2005)... then Kissables were reformulated from their original candy-coated milk chocolate drops formula into candy-coating mockolate in 2008... then they were quietly discontinued in 2009. Earlier this year Hershey's announced a new product line called Pieces, which would add to the existing Reese's Pieces line three new products: York Peppermint Pattie Pieces, Almond Joy Pieces and Hershey's Special Dark Pieces. One item missing from that list was a classic milk chocolate version ... the Hershey-ets. So I can't say I was surprised when I stumbled on a display of Hershey's Canes at Target a few weeks ago. They featured the Hershey's Canes I remembered from my childhood - a clear plastic tube filled with Hershey-ets (green & red) or Reese's Pieces (in white, green & red). They were only 99 cents so I picked up a few. There's not much to say about the construction of them, as most Earthlings are familiar with this candy construction. Milk chocolate ovoid covered with a brightly colored sugar shell. Are they just smashed Kissables or are they mini Hershey's Easter Milk Chocolate Eggs? Kissables Original (2006) Ingredients: Milk chocolate (sugar, cocoa butter, chocolate, nonfat milk, milk fat, lactose, soy lecithin, PGPR & artificial flavors), sugar, red #40, yellow #5, yellow #6, blue #1 & carnauba wax. Hershey-ets (2009) Ingredients: Sugar, milk, cocoa butter, chocolate, contains 2% or less of artificial colors (yellow #5, red #40, blue #1), corn syrup, corn starch, modified food starch, resinous glaze, soy lecithin, carnauba wax, vanillin. (Manufactured on shared equipment with peanuts). I don't have a wrapper for the classic Hershey's Eggs, but just by tasting these I'm going with a mini version of the Hershey's Eggs. What's weird is that there's no PGPR in there. Finally, since they look and act like M&Ms, I also did a little one-to-one comparison. Hershey-ets are little bulkier, a little less tapered at the edges. The shell is also thicker, so there's more crunch. M&Ms milk chocolate is sweet and tastes a bit like cocoa with a light peanut touch and milk. Not intense and the shell is like a light crust. They're very easy to eat, and keep eating though they never quite fill me up. Hershey-ets milk chocolate is classic Hershey's tang. Honestly, sticking my nose in the little tube, it smelled like chevre, or at the very least, chocolate cheesecake. The tangy yogurt note cuts through the sweetness a bit, and the extra crunchy shell provides more than just melting protection. Still, they're every sweet and after a handful they gave me a sore throat. I enjoy the fact that they're so different from M&Ms, but they're not quite the jumbo pop of the Easter version that I prefer which has more shell and more of an uninterrupted fudgy chocolate flavor and texture. I easily ate both tubes I had over two days. Lately I've found that Hershey's chocolate has tasted a little rancid, a little more like burps than is considered polite for candy. I've been blaming it on PGPR, which I think either adds some sort of off flavor or allows the flavors to oxidize quicker. These don't seem to have that problem. The flavor, though tangy with that slightly caramelized milk note is still there, but either sealing them in the little airtight candy shell or the lack of PGPR gives me back my classic Hershey's chocolate. Though I don't remember them, they were once available in single serve packages just like M&Ms, Candy Wrapper Archive has an image of them from the 60s. Retro Commercials remembers when Hershey-ets were sold by the bucket. Related Candies

Herhey's Kisses filled with Irish CremeI love it when the Candy Blog community points me to something new. We have a little conversation going on in the Candy Blog Forums about the 2009 holiday candy offerings. One that ruffy mentioned was Hershey's Kisses Filled with Irish Creme. I found them at Target as well and I suspect since no one else has seen them anywhere else that they may be a Target exclusive this year. Irish Cream is a combination of flavors and textures; it's usually heavy cream, whiskey and coffee. Kisses filled with Irish Creme are less of that. There's no actual whiskey in there, for starters. It's a molded chocolate shell filled with a sugar and oil paste with some milk products (nonfat milk and whey) and artificial flavoring. So maybe a more accurate name would be Kisses filled with Sweet Flavored Whey Paste. While my confidence level in them was low, I was also plenty curious. The dark green bag and gold wrappers with green fireworks on them were certainly appealing. The smell, when I pushed my face into the bag, is actually mildly alcoholic. I don't know how they did that, but it definitely has a bit of a whiskey note. Out of the foil it's even more noticeable - more than just bourbon vanilla, this smells like strong stuff. The chocolate flavors of the molded shell aren't much. It's smooth enough, with a slight fudgy grain that's definitely candy-like. The center is a bit of a paste, thicker than the cordial creme in some of the Kisses. It's not quite grainy and rather like a fondant. The center is a little bit salty so it has an immediate difference from the chocolate shell. The whiskey flavors of woodsy alcohol are there along with a slightly warm and cozy background note. The liquor flavor though has an odd medicinal quality, especially later on. It's like the after effects of Cepacol or some other throat anesthetic. Eating another one kind of gets rid of the benzocaine & menthol aftertaste by introducing the primary tastes of sugar, milk and whiskey flavored cheesecake. I'm not blown away, but they are different than the last few flavors. But a true coffee flavored Kiss might be a nice change one of these days or an Egg Nog for the holidays. Related Candies

Green & Black's Peanut Milk ChocolateThe problem with Mr. Goodbar was that it was never Mr. Greatbar in the first place. When Hershey's replaced the cocoa butter in it, I completely lost interest. So, I've been looking for Mr. Betterbar because I still believed there could be a simple, satisfying combination of milk chocolate and fresh roasted peanuts. When I was at the Target in Harbor City shortly before Halloween I spotted this new bar: Green & Black's Peanut. Since Green & Black's is organic and expensive, I thought for sure it was going to be better. After I got the bar home and photographed it, I read a little closer to see that it wasn't just a plain milk chocolate with whole (or half) pieces of peanuts. No, this was something quite different but still equally compelling: Milk chocolate with caramelized peanuts and a hint of sea salt - 37% Cocoa Content. The bar looks smooth and shiny. It also looks darker than most milk chocolate bars, somewhere between a true dark and a milk chocolate. I like how Green & Black's bars are just a little thicker than the Lindt Excellence or Scharffen Berger. This is great especially when there are inclusions, because it leaves room for them to stack and still be surrounded by chocolate. The bar smells incredible. It's deep and smoky with a great authentic peanut scent along with the faint hint of caramelized sugar and milk. The texture is equally great, there's a silky smooth melt and a sweet dairy flavor along with some dark bitter notes of both chocolate and toasted nuts. The peanut flavors are quite strong, and the nuts themselves are crunchy but there's also the wonderful surprise of both little buttery toffee bits and a crisp toffee coating on some of the peanuts. The salt is also a nice complement to the flavors, keeping the rather sweet milk chocolate from becoming too sticky and setting off the woodsy notes. I ate this bar up in less than two days. Then I went looking for another. I still haven't found one, but when I see it, I'll buy it. Oddly enough, it's still not the Mr. Goodbar substitute I was looking for, but I'm going to just be happy with the serendipity that brought it into my life and be grateful that my mistakes are so tasty.

Great ring
By BRENDA
from CALGARY
I've had this ring for a few months now; whenever I wear it, I unfailingly get comments from people as to how much they like it, and what a bold ring it is. It is a different ring, and it took some time to get used to it, but now it is a "go to" ring when I'm not sure what ring I feel like wearing on any particular day. Very glad I purchased it.

Angel on Earth
A tear falls from his face, erases his smile
that used to beautify his character even
more than anything else. He was a person
with all the sense of jokes in his shell.
All the silly faces he made, all the tricks
he had, in one move he could make
everybody laugh like no one could do
that before.
He's an angel, an angle that fell on Earth
with his smile that made everybody's day
since he came across our lives and made
it better we don't deny.
Nobody could ever guess, that it will
happen to him. Lose his smile, like
he lost his wings. Now, we're here for him
in every possible way.
The death of his father was a shocking
trade. The strength lost its weight, tears
now fall like he used to smile all the way,
our angel needs our fate.
For my dear classmate and friend who's father died
few days ago. Keep holding on my dear mate

kitten and I tried making Sushi a few years ago when we lived in Atlanta because there were Oriental grocery stores to get good ingredients, it was pretty fun to make it, but honestly its not really worthwhile if you're doing it from a saving money perspective Instead of taking $20 bucks and getting the ingredients to make 6 tuna rolls, I would rather spend $20 at the sushi restaurant and get tuna roll, elvis roll, dragon roll , + 3-4 varieties of sashimi
I make California rolls every once in a while, it's actually really easy.
Well, tbh, I have found it very cheap to make your own Sushi. Even a top quality piece of fish, you don't need much so maybe a few bucks gives you enough for several Maki. The Nori can be bought for less than $0.10, and the rice is running less than $1/lb now (I use Kohuko Rose sp?). The Sushi-Su is merely Rice vinegar, Sugar and salt (I simmer mine with Kombu). Kombu is a few cents for seasoning the rice. Wasabi can be purchased in a bulk bag for a few bucks at Asian grocers.
+1 for the California rolls. It's hard to get sushi grade fish here, so thats pretty much all I make. SWMBO loves the fact I can just throw it together on the fly. TiP: Dip your knife in a cup of water before you cut through the roll and you will have an easier time cutting it. bamboo roller=cheap seaweed=cheap fake crab=cheap avacado= seasonal cucumber=cheap impressing the ladies without spending a fortune=priceless
Think of something inspirational. Then pretend I wrote it here.
We've had a few sushi parties and they are great. Just have a rice cooker ready and make the sushi rice, then everyone brings an ingredient. (Make sure they know to get sushi grade cuts) Then we would all stand around and make rolls. Then sit down to a table COVERED with the ugliest damn rolls you've ever seen, but they all (mostly) tasted great. Then we clean up and tear into some well deserved homebrews. Last time was a barleywine, triple, and grand cru tasting. Goes well with sushi.
Remember one unassailable statistic, as explained by the late, great George Carlin: "Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!" "I would like to die on Mars, just not on impact." Elon Musk
Yeah I should add that it can be very cheap, I haven't delved into using raw fish but you wouldn't need all that much so I don't see why you couldn't do this as well. Trouble for me is that SWMBO doesn't like sushi so while I get more for myself I end up cooking two meals because she wont eat it (it's not just my sushi either we have been to some very nice sushi restaurants and she will try it but always thinks it's gross) so it's too much work most of the time.
Haven't made my own yet, but I could eat about a dozen Philadelphia rolls right now...

Silver Whisper Cruise Review by kandylandmo: Silverseas is unparalled.....except maybe by Seabourn

Silverseas is unparalled.....except maybe by Seabourn
my husband and my 14 yo son just got off of the silverseas silver whisper. this truly was one of our favorite vacations ever. we have sailed with crystal, seabourn, regent, and celebrity. silverseas has no competition except from seabourn. my husband and i have discovered that we like smaller ships. we work very hard in our day to day lives and like the chance to slow down the pace and escape from hordes of people.
silversea is a quiet cruise line. it is not meant for discoing, night life, etc. if you like to read, relax, take great excursions, learn about your destinations and eat and drink great food and wine, this is the cruise line for you.
our cabin was 801, a grand suite, which we loved for the spaciousness and the fact that it had a pull out sofa for our teenage son. i would imagine this suite as it is on the front of the boat could be rocky in high seas, so be forewarned.
our butler, bryan was wonderful. in our suite, we got complimentary laundry, More
dry cleaning and pressing. that alone was worth the price of the suite.
we found the food to be consistently good, sometimes delicious. the house wine were all good, the house champagne being pommery(they had me at hello!)
the staff was exceptional, only marred by one or two slightly unfriendly waiters. overall, many knew our names by the second day. very friendly and always accomodating.
our fellow passengers were wonderful. we met many new friends and hope to stay in touch.
the entertainment staff were just lovely. talented and friendly!
our excursions were a blast. also be warned, if they say strenous, at least on the cruise the fjords, it's strenuous. a three hour hike is just that. no dallying around. our kayak trip was 10km total.
my husband's biggest complaint is that they couldn't broadcast the british open. he was bitterly disappointed. so i guess one negative is the lack of tv stations to choose from, at least no american sports to follow.
the gym is small...always to my dismay. my husband and son got great massages, so i assume the spa is good as well.
overall, just a great, great trip! we booked for next year already. Less

The region of Nimes in the south of France will always be connected with one of the most popular types of clothing in human history – denim (from the French "de Nimes"). But those who venture from their budget Nimes hotel will also find Roman architectural remains unmatched anywhere in Europe, making this region a very popular destination for tourists. Among the sites still visible to modern-day tourists are the amphiteater, the temple Maison Carree, and Pont du Gard aqueduct.
For those seeking inspiration from more-current art and culture, Nimes is a "new" place as well, with leading designers and architects contributing to Nimes' modernity. Check with EasyToBook.com for a discount hotel in Nimes that will put the traveler close to such sites as the Carre d'Art by Norman Foster (a museum dedicated to modern art). It's a good bet that residents of countries around the world have sampled products from this region as well, because the Nimes area is known for its wine and brandy, as well as for such special items as silk and certain types of machinery. The source for Perrier water is also near Nimes. France, in general, is a desirable destination for many travelers. Nimes attracts a significant portion of those wishing to experience the beauty and culture of the country.

Naturally collected wolf fur from Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary and Mission:Wolf.
Hey all! I'm finally getting around to making a price list for you all to see now!
As many of you already know, I create jewelry out of wolf fur and set them with semi-precious gems and sterling silver. The goal here is for the wolf to help you in healing while still staying fashionable!
Gems have a great power to most all of life. Most living things are liquid crystals so they resonate and vibrate in harmony with other liquid crystal and solid crystal elements. The gem with the highest vibration is Moldavite and was believed to be either embedded into or the only material that made the legendary Holy Grail. Reason being, is that the vibration is so high that anyone can feel it. It is said to bring a euphoria and to help aide in rapid spiritual evolution. When I first came in contact with Moldavite, my heart skipped and I couldn't breath well. It took some getting used to but after awhile, I began to warm up to it. Now, I always keep a piece in my pocket. Unfortunately, since Moldavite came from space roughly 14.8 million years ago, it is rare and expensive. I do not carry any Moldavite available for sell but if this interests you, I highly recommend acquiring some of your own!
Gems don't mess around. Their power is very real and the wolf will show you how to use that.

First off, this is all in good fun. Any intelligent person could draw the conclusions this author did based on what was happening at the time, and with the limited information available about Google's plans for Android. We're posting this because it's funny to look back on it with some hindsight.
Back in 2009, Android's fate was anything but decided in the eyes of the tech journalism world, and many took a dismal view of Google's purchase of the young upstart open-source mobile operating system.

Dante Michael Soiu, 51, who was convicted and sentenced to a high security psychiatric facility for treatment in front of Judge O'Neill last December, had presented a progress report to the court, says Reuters. Paltrow (Shakespeare In Love) testified tearfully during the original trial, stating that she'd been living in fear of Soiu for more than a year.

Brownsville police have a warning for any drunk drivers before the Labor Day holiday, they will be out in full force making sure those drivers are apprehended if they are drinking and driving.
Starting on Friday and continuing until September 5th, police officers will be working overtime, on the lookout for drivers under the influence as part of the "Drink, Drive and go to Jail." Officers say if you're going to drink make sure you have a designated driver or get a cab.

Justin's mom weighs in on her son's on-and-off relationship Selena — and her commentary might surprise you!
Justin Bieber's mom Pattie Mallette was a special guest on The View on July 10, and the ladies grilled her all about the advice she gives Justin, why she's "super proud" of him and even the current status of his relationship with Selena Gomez!
Pattie Is a Belieber!
When asked if she's concerned by some of Justin's recent antics, Pattie replied, "I think all parents worry about their kids. … I don't necessarily agree with everything that he does, but we talk about things. I can't really tell you all the things we talk about, but I'm super proud of him [for] a lot of things he does that don't make the headlines everyday."
As for the heartfelt advice Pattie gives Justin, she said, "I just try to encourage him to stay true to who he is, and stay grounded and humble. I just always encourage him and say … you always have to learn the hard way, and you'll get there, and I believe in you."
Justin & Selena: On Or Off ?
So are Justin and Selena officially back together or not? The ladies of The View couldn't resist asking Pattie for the truth, and her answer was actually pretty surprising!
"I know it depends what day it is," she said, which sent the audience into a fit of laughter.
HollywoodLifers, do YOU believe Justin and Selena are back together, following their romantic Fourth of July meeting?

Pattie is soo right

Lol I love pattie, she's so humble and so funny ( soo true) , and I agree their relationship is not that serious and that's why she made it sound so funny, she's basically saying that she will get married before her son! (Lol) and that jelena is just a teen relationship so guys could u just stop making it seem so serious lol! Their relationship will probably survive for a few months and then they will just get tired of always breaking up and getting back together

Sheryl Crow. After the concert, when one of the children I took wanted to see the tour buses again, and when I walked her by, Sheryl came walking into the crowd. I got my picture taken with Sheryl thanks to a twelve year old. (And I'm sure to this day, Ms. Crow thinks I'm a demented fan)

what you think.. poor sportsmanship from the steelers fans or not a big deal.. i knew it waas going to happen but it seemed a little over the top.. the guys werent even playing..
The boos were just an acknowledgement by Steeler fans that Brady and Branch own them! Does anybody think Brady or Branch derived anything but pleasure from those boos? Consider Brady's comments after the Pats beat Pitt....again! "Man, they really hate us here <while laughing>
I mentioned this in an earlier post, but Brady smiled when they booed. And I laughed with him. It was completely classless to boo a player (especially as good as Brady) when you are about to watch your own team in a SB game.
Meh. I would expect it. I know I would boo the hell out of Peyton regardless of the situation. And we own Peyton. I can't imagine how they must hate Tommy and Deion, who are their daddies!
How about the fact that none of the Steeler "Captains" shook Brady's hand prior to the coin flip, yet most or all of the Seahawk Captains did.
The highest respect an athlete can be paid is to be booed by opposing fans. That means they hate the player for all he's accomplished. Its just like when Red Sox fans boo Derek Jeter. A-Rod is a different story. He gets booed for the person he is. Derek Jeter isn't a bad person though. Its the nature of sports. I bet if Brady announced his retirement or something, he would get a standing ovation for all that he did for the game. I think we're being to critical if we say Steeler fans were classless. Every rival sports teams boo the opposing players. I guarentee if there were as many Pats fans attending a Patriots Super Bowl as there were Steeler fans, and Peyton Manning flipped the coin, he would get booed.
Good point, I agree if Peyton flipped the coin I would boo, if he announced his retirement I would give him a standing O. Brady and Branch have thick skins.
i hope Brady very soon will show, again, to the Pittsburgh Steelers who we are... yesterday they won only due to the 'zebra'... Seahawks fans: i am with you !
Take a look at 3 Games to Glory III and the beating the Pats delivered to the Steelers last year. Thats a wound that will never heal. That being said, If the Pats were in the Super Bowl, I don't think Pats fans would mercilously boo Roethlisburger if he was doing the coin toss.
Yeah, but the "We can't beat them" dynamic would be lacking in that instance. Pats fans can afford to benevolently applaud Big Ben should that scenario ever rise...we're not the perceived underdog.
I'm sure the Steelers players were still bummed about having to rescind their Superbowl reservations from 01 and 04.{err both games lost at home} I don't think I would shake their hands either lol. The fresh memories are still stirring through my mind.
No big deal. Brady was cracking up! Hopefully he was thinking, "Yeah, you're booing now - wait til next year!!

Stargazer's World is a roleplaying game blog. It's a place where I can write down my thoughts on the roleplaying industry, the community and roleplaying in general. And by roleplaying I mean good old classic pen and paper roleplaying. So don't expect too much about MMORPGs, computer and console RPGs and the like. And don't expect posts about LARP either. Don't get me wrong, I have played a lot of MMOs and I wouldn't mind trying out LARP some time, but this blog will be focused on pen and paper roleplaying.
As of February 2010, Stargazer's World isn't a one-man-show anymore, but a team of dedicated bloggers brings you new posts every work day. | |

In part, what's happening is a reappraisal of the risk inherent in making loans. During an era of low interest rates and solid global growth, it was the potential rewards that captivated bankers, borrowers, and investors.
Now, banks face rising loan defaults and a possible recession in the US economy – an event that would have strong global ripple effects. So they are turning more cautious and reining in access to credit. It's not just mortgage loans that are going bad. Default rates are also rising for auto and credit card loans. Also at risk are loans to corporations making leveraged buyouts, and loans for commercial real estate.
Housing markets have weakened in Britain, Ireland, and Spain. But so far, the biggest problems are with investments tied to home loans in America.
"We know that around $700 billion in US mortgage debt has been [packaged into investments and] distributed abroad," says Desmond Lachman, a former International Monetary Fund official, in an e-mail interview. Add other loan troubles, and "this adds up to large likely losses to the global banking system."
What's 'SIV' got to do with it?
Don't know what a SIV is? The financial industry has grown ever more creative in recent years, and now one of the biggest challenges is sorting out the unknown risks of complicated products. Consider:
• Banks set up structured investment vehicles (SIVs), which derive income by making loans with borrowed money. Now, after other firms stopped lending to these SIVs, banks in effect are being forced to lend to themselves. They are bringing the SIV loans back onto their books – and marking down their value to reflect new realities. Europe's biggest bank, London-based HSBC, recently said it will absorb about $45 billion in SIV assets.
