Living Smart & Well with Janis F. Kearney
in Self Help
Inez Bracy, Lifestyle Strategist, interviews Janis F. Kearney, former presidential diarist to President Bill Clinton, and editor for the Arkansas State Press, and author of Daisy: Between a Rock and a Hard Place. Ms Kearney transforms civil rights legend Daisy Gatson Bates' life from black and white, to living color.
Kearney interviewed Bates many times; here she creates a riveting, fictionalized last interview granted by Bates, as she lay dying in Little Rock, Arkansas. Most of the persons, places and experiences in the book are based on fact, and builds upon the Daisy Gatson Bates 1957 memoir, Long Shadow over Little Rock.
Using creative license and sublties Kearney "fills in" places left un-filled, and colors incidents and experiences, to bring Daisy Bates to life. She plums the mysterious murder of Bates' mother, and the orphan's childhood; the young woman's prophetic decision to share a traveling salesman's life; her non-traditional role as co-publisher of an award winning newspaper; her leadership role at a time, and place where women rarely led, and her most prominent role as the face and voice of the 1957 Central High School Integration Crisis.
Ms. Kearney answers readers questions about the book.

Armando F. Sanchez Cold War Spy Expert
in Military
March 7 2015 at 2: pm
The Whittier Museum will host Armando F. Sanchez and his Spying during the Cold War part 1 of 3
Armando Sanchez was an Economics and US Government teacher for many years until he retired a couple of years. He has and continues to serve has a mentor and friend to S3productions in the Field of Internet Multimedia Broadcasting. I wanted to do this show for a couple of reasons (1) how did you get from one career path to "retired" to being an expert on cold war spying. (2) S3productions will be at the museum covering the "Spy Show" and I am hoping to get a scoop before all the major media players get them.
Mr. Sanchez has been doing both web Streaming and podcasting for several years now and has covered a variety of subjects and topics and I always find it fascinating to see where one story sometimes leads to some subject totally unrelated and a whole new directions of shows.

Group Ready to Start Sulu Sea Drilling
Newspaper article Manila Bulletin , October 3, 2009
Article excerpt
The Department of Energy (DoE) announced the start of exploration for hydrocarbons in the South Sulu Sea under DoE's Service Contract 56 (SC-56) with the arrival Friday of the drill rig, West Aquarius.The SC-56 contractors are ExxonMobil Exploration and Production Philippines B.V. [ExxonMobil], Mitra Energy (Philippines SC-56) Limited [Mitra] and BHP Billiton (International Exploration Pty Ltd) [BHP Billiton]. ExxonMobil is the operator of SC-56.The DoE said West Aquarius, a semi-submersible rig designed to operate in the water depths of up to 3,000 meters and drill up to a maximum depth of approximately 10,000 meters, leaves Indonesia for the South Sulu Sea project.The deep water exploration well, Dabakan – 1 will be drilled in 1,800 meters of water, a record for the Philippines.Similar to other exploration projects, discovering gas and oil under the SC-56 is very challenging with uncertain results.The DoE said it is very pleased to have ExxonMobil, the world's largest publicly traded international oil and gas company, and BHP Billiton, the world's largest integrated resources company, recognize the potential of the Philippines oil and gas sector and bring their technical and financial strengths to bear on this complex project.SC-56 is 900 kilometers southwest from Manila, 200 kilometers northwest from the Bongao Municipality and 65 kilometers from the Municipality of Mapun in the Province of Tawi-Tawi in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM).Service Contract 56 in the South Sulu Sea is expected to have a potential reserve of 750 million barrels oil—enough to cover the country's daily consumption of 275,000 barrels per day in seven years.This estimate was made by Exxon Mobil Corporation, the world's largest oil and gas exploration company, which is the operator of SC-56. …

Talking to the Enemy: Track Two Diplomacy in the Middle East and South Asia
SynopsisThis monograph examines security-related track two diplomacy efforts in the Middle East and South Asia, including how such efforts have socialized participants into thinking about security in more cooperative terms, and whether the ideas generated in track two forums have been acknowledged at the societal level or influenced official policy. Kaye concludes with suggestions on how to improve future track two efforts.

Humorist's Ohio Home On National Register Of Historic Places
The suburban ranch-style home in Ohio where humor writer Erma Bombeck launched her nationally syndicated column has been added to the National Register of Historic Places.
The state of Ohio has approved part of an incentive package for Fuyao, the Chinese auto-glass company coming to the former GM Moraine plant south of Dayton.
The job creation tax credit is meant to retain jobs in Ohio, but these incentives don't always work out that way.
The idea behind the Job Creation tax credit is to give companies a break on taxes—if they create new jobs.
Fuyao's planning to bring in more than 800 jobs, which would mean more than 32 million dollars in annual payroll.
If the company succeeds, the state will give Fuyao a tax discount totalling almost 10 million dollars over 15 years.
Economic development officials say incentives like this are a way to compete with other states. Kristi Tanner is with JobsOhio.
"JobsOhio started working with Fuyao not quite a year ago, and they could have selected any state, they could have selected any site," Tanner said.
A New York Times analysis found Ohio spent about a tenth of the state budget from 2006 to 2011 on tax credits, grants and other incentives for businesses.
But that hasn't always worked to retain jobs: GM, which pulled out of Moraine in 2008, had been one of the largest recipients of government tax credits in the state.
The Fuyao tax credit requires the company to stick around for at least 18 years.

Top 10 Movie Lists

Awards & Oscars
Box Office
TV Series
DVD Releases
Proposal, The (2009) DVD Movie Review
Rising and fading stars converge in The Proposal, a pretty typical romantic comedy from the director of 27 Dresses and Step Up. And yet, just like Anne Fletcher's other films, there's something that just works about the movie. Ryan Reynolds, who after years of circling mainstream exposure finally burst onto the scene with such 2009 […]
Girlfriend Experience, The (2009) DVD Movie Review
Steven Soderbergh is one of those directors that just doesn't seem to care how marketable his films are. Here's a man who put himself on the map in the early 2000's with such popular films as Erin Brockovich, Traffic and Ocean's Eleven, but who then followed those up with Solaris, Eros, The Good German and […]
Drag Me to Hell Blu-Ray Review
Sam Raimi's return to horror – Drag Me to Hell – failed to register with viewers as it faded into the pits of heck faster than a cow at an Australian barbecue. It's a shame, because the movie is an entertaining blast, full of demon hauntings, crazy old gypsie women and more than one kind […]
Don't Get Lost in Snow White Blu-Ray
Snow storms can be blinding. I can't say I've been in one where I haven't been able to see, but there was a movie released a few weeks ago that relies on this premise, so it must really happen. After all, Hollywood never lies. But in other news, I popped the all-new Snow White and […]
Blu-Ray Review: X-Men Origins: Wolverine
Every once in a while a movie comes along that defies expectations, that rocks its very essence, that destroys all hope of anything ever succeeding it. X-Men Origins: Wolverine is not that film. If X-Men 3 was a disappointment – and it was – Wolverine is a mitigated disaster, full of hammy dialogue, rushed storytelling […]
Blu-Ray Review: The Office: Season 5
With season six looming, NBC is releasing The Office: Season 5 on DVD and Blu-Ray this Tuesday. With the 26 episodes comes the typical bonus feature culprits – deleted scenes, episode commentaries and a gag reel – but in this case, that's actually a good thing. As has been the case with other seasons of […]
Sunshine Cleaning Movie Review
From the producers of Little Miss Sunshine comes another seemingly bright dramedy titled Sunshine Cleaning, about two down-and-out women who start a crime scene cleaning business. Though I'm generally not fooled by the "from the producers of" marketing spin films are often given, I did fall for this one: following the trailers, casting and even […]
Adventureland DVD Not Full of Adventure
Those expecting Superbad things from director Greg Mottola's follow-up comedy Adventureland may be disappointed. The R-rated drama-comedy, about a young man in the 1980's who desperately takes a job at a trashy carnival and finds first love, is a well-made and engaging film, but it isn't nearly as funny as Superbad, nor is it meant […]
New How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days DVD Loses
Paramount, in its never-ending battle (along with the other studios) to make money off of movies they've already released, is re-releasing How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days on DVD and Blu-Ray on August 25, 2009. The movie, which stars Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson as two opposing forces each trying to break the […]
Battlestar Galactica: The Complete Series DVD Review
It must be crazy to say that Battlestar Galactica is one of the best television series ever made, simply because I and so many other people have been repeating such a statement for years now. Why say a thing repetitively when almost everyone who you talk to believes you already? That, my friends, is insanity. […]
Two Lovers Movie Review: Joaquin Phoenix Burns Bright
Joaquin Phoenix. What comes to mind when you hear that name? Two-time Academy Award nominee? Younger brother of River Phoenix? Or crazy, bearded rapper wannabe who embarrassed himself, either intentionally or not, on a variety of occasions over the last several months? Regardless, what he isn't known for is his "final" movie Two Lovers, which […]
Playboy Bunnies Can't Save Miss March
There are good movies, and there are bad ones. That's a John Madden thing to say, but it's true. Miss March, sad to say, falls clearly into the latter category, and doesn't even appear to care. Zach Cregger and Trevor Moore wrote, directed and star in this road trip movie, about a guy who fell […]
DVD Review: Dollhouse: Season One (2009)
When Joss Whedon's Dollhouse debuted in February, I was mildly intrigued to see what the man had come up with. I never watched Buffy the Vampire Slayer but was a huge fan of Firefly and its companion film Serenity, and so Whedon's name alone was enough to get me to watch the premiere. The show […]
Mad Men: Season 2 DVD Review
The Golden Globe-winning series Mad Men brings Season 2 to DVD this Tuesday, and along with it all 13 episodes of some of the best drama on television. Season 2 builds upon the foundations created in the first season while giving the characters more things to do, and more importantly, more avenues to explore.
Kristin Kreuk is Hot, Street Fighter is Not
There's bad, and then there's Street Fighter bad. And what's worse than a Street Fighter movie but an unnecessary, unwanted sequel fifteen years after the franchise's heyday, starring a TV actress and lacking a plot? Yes, it's Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li. One has to think that 20th Century Fox had this absurd idea […]

Hundreds of people, including school and college students, NCC cadets, IT professionals, and defence personnel, joined hands to clean up the beaches at Shanghumughom and Kovalam here on Sunday.
The initiative was organised by the Indian Coast Guard Station, Vizhinjam, and the Kerala Tourism Development Corporation (KTDC) as part of the International Coastal Cleanup Day 2011.
National Service Scheme volunteers from All Saint's College, children from Sainik School, Kazhakuttam, cadets from the NCC Naval wing, employees of UST Global, the KTDC, and UDS Resorts, and personnel of the Indian Air force and the Coast Guard participated in the beach-cleaning drive. A Coast Guard helicopter was deployed on standby for search and rescue to deal with any emergency during the event.
The cleaning operation on the Shanghumughom beach was coordinated by the Coast Guard unit based in Vizhinjam, while that at Kovalam beach was coordinated by the KTDC. About 1,200 kg of garbage was collected from Shanghumughom and 2,000 kg from Kovalam.
Addressing the volunteers, Commandant Athinarayanan, Commanding Officer, Coast Guard Station, Vizhinjam, stressed the need for cleaner coastal areas to ensure the health of marine life.
Alexander Varghese, vice-president, corporate services, UST Global, Prasad Manjali, vice-president, UDS, Kovalam, and C.J. Nair, Tourist Information Officer, spoke.

Greg & Linda were perfect hosts. Delicious breakfasts,cake and well thought out accomodation which was very clean, lovely and modern.

Trimble claims Ireland 'gave in'
ESPNscrum Staff
March 18, 2012
Andrew Trimble goes over against Scotland but Ireland didn't find the same winning touch against England © Getty Images
Ireland winger Andrew Trimble lamented his side's poor showing against England claiming that they "gave in".
The Irish were demolished in the scrum and imploded in an abject second half that allowed England to turn a 9-6 interval lead into an easy victory. Trimble believes his side surrendered in an excruciating trip to Twickenham.
"We let them get in the ascendancy and it's very disappointing that we didn't hit back," the Ulster wing said. "It felt like we were on the receiving end of everything and we didn't show enough fight.
"It seemed like we were caving in and it's very difficult to hear yourself say this, but it felt like we gave in. That feeling hurts."
Ireland finished third in the championship and will now look to their summer tour to New Zealand - where they will play three Tests against the All Blacks - with trepidation. Trimble has urged his team-mates to recall the pain of yesterday's defeat when they face the reigning world champions.
"This is disappointing. Two wins and a draw isn't good enough. We're a lot better than that," he said. "Three Tests against the All Blacks are always daunting. I'm hoping that while being on the receiving end of that result yesterday was horrible, it will push us on to never be here again."
Ireland are waiting to see if citing officer Alberto Recaldini takes action over an accusation by flanker Stephen Ferris that he was bitten during the first half. Ferris protested to referee Nigel Owens, who claimed he did not see the incident, and then received treatment.
Neither coach Declan Kidney nor captain Rory Best would elaborate on the incident yesterday.

The Cliff Lift on the Leas
From the top of the Leas to the beach is quite a long drop and a very steep walk back up. To accommodate this there is a funicular railway/lift that connects the two. It dates back to 1885 and is looking a bit sad these days. From the notice outside it looks as if it only operates regularly between Easter and October. Outside of this period it only runs on Sundays. These hours may have been reduced even further as I believe the local council is giving up the lease on the lift, much against the wishes of residents who are arranging a petition. It would be a shame to lose it but I guess there's not so much call for it now that the Rotunda area that used to house an amusement park has been flattened for redevelopment.
The area of Folkestone is approched by 2 major motorways the main being the M20 and A20 which runs from Dover then Folkestone and then right through to London, an alternative way is to use the M2 or A2, this will take you from London via the outskirts of Canterbury and on to Dover where you can pick up the A20 to Folkestone
Another photo of the roundhill tunnel, looking through to the northern end, which is one of the main roads into Folkestone. There is another tunnel which goes the other way towards Dover docks and beyond
- Road Trip
The roundhill tunnel was constructed about 4 years ago now and was built to link Folkestone and Dover via the M20 moterway. It was bored through the white chalk hills of Folkestone and takes away a vast amount of traffic that used to have to pass through Folkestone to get to Dover and the ports
- Road Trip
This is Folkestone west, it serves passengers from the west end side of Folkestone (Cheriton) although not every train stops here its still an important comuter station for trains going to London in the mornings
Located at the top end of Cheriton road, next to Udrive car hire
- Trains
Folkestone has 2 mainline train stations, this one is Folkestone central. You can get a direct train from here to London every hour and the journey takes around 1.30 mins. In the oppersit direction you can journey to Dover, Deal, ramesgate and then on to Margate
Folkestone station is located off radnor park road, oppersit the park inn pub
- Trains
Well what can i say about the channel tunnel. First of all its an engineering marvel of the 20th century, but thats as far as it goes if like me you live right next to the entrance. The tunnel has taken away what used to be a beautiful rural part of Folkestone and turned it in to stone (I HATE IT). But in the name of progress its here and its gonna stay here. Effeciently you can't falt the tunnel, trains are every 20 mins and are hardly ever late. There are i think 3 ways to board the trains 1st is from london waterloo station direct to paris, next you can catch the train from Ashford international station (brand new) and last you can drive your car on the train from Folkestone to france on one of the shuttles, which is on my bloody door step.
- Trains
I have to tell you that I personally thought the time waiting at the Folkestone terminal was so slow that we ended up having to wait longer than we would have liked and then when we got in the queue for our train we were told that the train was shorter than normal and we were put on the next one. Just come back from another trip and this time it was better BUT still boring!!

Cool Mist. Most tile saws pump water out of a large pan to cool their cuts, which can cause a lot of overspray and dripping. MK's new TX3 avoids this problem by using a high-pressure mist system that dispenses much less water and leaves only a toothpaste-like residue in the catch pan. The saw plunge cuts and tilts up to 45 degrees for bevel cuts; it can handle straight cuts on 24-inch tiles and diagonal cuts on 18-inch tiles. It takes 10-inch and smaller blades with uncommon one-inch arbor holes and is available from the manufacturer for $1,015. MK Diamond, 800/421-5830. www.mkdiamond.com

Hershey's Cacao Reserve Truffles
I picked up some more of the Cacao Reserve line at the 7-11. I figured it would be interesting to give them a try after my chocolate overload at the Fancy Food Show (and fancy should not always be confused with gourmet or even good).
I've already tried two of the Cacao Reserve bars, the Hazelnut in Milk Chocolate and 65% Dark Nibby Bar. And they were pretty good. I know that there are some folks who turn up their nose at Hershey's attempt at upscale chocolate, but I don't call this upscale ... it's simply better quality. If I'm stuck making a chocolate choice at 7-11, I'm going to go for the Cacao Reserve Nibby bar over the waxy Ghirardelli every time.
The little tin is quite fun. It's the same size as an Altoids tin. Yes, there are eight truffles in that wee little box. You know how they fit them in there? They're wee truffles!
They look all homespun and enrobed/dipped but don't be fooled, these are molded truffles. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Appearance accounts for a lot in candy and these are nice looking little chocolates.
Each is an easy single bite or two very small bites. The chocolate coating is a bit sweet and has a light acidic tang to it. It's not terribly complex in the flavor area, just smooth and a bit on the smoky side with a mild dry finish. The truffle filling is rather bland, not as creamy as I would like but has a light salt hit in it that sets it apart from the shell.
The tin is a nice idea, an easy way to carry the little truffles without smashing them in some sort of wonky plastic tray. The price was a little steep, however. At $2.99 for the little tin that holds 1.8 ounces, that means a full pound purchased this way is $26.58. (Compare that with See's selling a little 4 ounce Valentine's heart for $5.25 a box which would mean the chocolate is going for $21 a pound.) Of course I wouldn't go into 7-11 and buy things for the price, I'm sure these are available for quite a bit less at drug stores or mega-marts.
Overall, I wasn't that impressed with this effort into high end chocolates. The centers were not smooth and creamy enough for my tastes when it comes to a truffle indulgence. However, this has not put me off from my curiosity about the other bars in the Cacao Reserve line.

Joyva Joys
Ah, the joys of jelly. Why is it that we associate jelly candies with old people? (Or maybe that's just me.)
I've seen these bars around, usually in big cities, usually in Kosher delis or Jewish neighborhoods. I've had Joyva's products before, but always the halvah. The Joyva Joys is a long, flat and rather solid jelly bar covered in a thin shell of dark chocolate.
The jelly has a very strong floral scent and is raspberry flavored. It's mostly sweet with a light tart bite to it. The jelly itself is medium pink, which I thought a little odd because the only way you'd know that is if you nibbled off the chocolate. For some reason I figured they colored it, but maybe not.
The chocolate is not terribly interesting, but I rather liked how it took a back seat to the jelly.
I enjoyed the bar for the most part. It wasn't terribly sweet and it was different. The jelly was firmer and less sticky than something like a Chuckle or a Sunkist Fruit Gem - more like Jell-O. But Raspberry isn't really my favorite flavor combo with chocolate. I think I'd enjoy an orange bar better, but I have no clue if Joyva makes an orange jelly. I get the sense that jelly candies like this are for old people or maybe I just think that because I've never seen anyone eating them. They're probably a good candy to eat if you're on a diet and want something chocolate, but not all that fat. They've got a pretty low caloric density for a candy with chocolate in it.
But I'm not on a diet, so I think I'll stick with my Joyva Halvah. WASAW has two different reviews on this ... which average out pretty much to my review - a rave and a pan.
Note: Joyva Joys are thickened with agar-agar (made from seaweed), so they're appropriate not only for those who keep Kosher, but also vegans (who don't mind a little sugar), however, they are not Kosher for Passover as they contain corn syrup.

Frangos Dark (62%)
I've mentioned Frangos a lot on this blog, but I've never reviewed them before. So after Christmas when I stumbled on a 50% off sale, I picked up a variety I'd never had before, 62% Cocoa Dark Chocolate Frangos. They were regularly $20 a pound, but at $10 a pound, I thought it was time they made an appearance here.
But first, how about a little background about Frangos?
People in the Pacific Northwest and the Chicago area are most familiar with Frangos, as the history of the confection is closely tied to both areas.
The Frango confectionery line was first introduced by Frederick & Nelson department stores in Seattle in 1918. The Frango name was applied at F&N to a few confectionery products, but the Frango mint meltaway (which joined their line in 1927) is the one that struck a lasting chord with consumers. (Note: there's some disagreement about the early name of the candy, which may have been Francos, but was changed after Francisco Franco and the Spanish Civil War gave the chocolates a less festive feel.)
A Frango is a small chocolate - currently they're taller than they are about 3/4" high and 1/2" wide and deep. The center is a firm meltaway - harder than a truffle but softer than pure chocolate. The original flavor and still the most popular is Mint.
Frangos made their migration to Chicago in 1929 when Marshall Fields (now Macy's) bought the store and started up Frango production right there at the flaship State Street store. Though the products are virtually identical they are packaged differently - the Northwest version are individually wrapped and the Chicago version are sold in a traditional candy box in little fluted cups.
I first had Frangos in the late seventies when my mother returned from a trip to Chicago with a box. I despised most of the flavors (Coffee, Raspberry, Cherry, Double Chocolate) but I rather liked the Lemon and of course was obsessed with the Mint. Boxes were sold with mixes of flavors and the ultimate gift was the "Foot of Frangos." (The little paper cups gave a clue to the flavor, so there was no problem with little dents in the bottom from picky children.)
The 62% Cocoa Dark Chocolates are quite nice. They have a strong vanilla aroma mixed with the smoky notes of the chocolate. The centers are firm but the pieces are small and easy to pop into your mouth whole. The meltaway middle gets a little kick from a hit of salt (which I always loved in the mint version).
The worst thing about them right now though, is that they use partially hydrogenated soybean oil to get them "melty" in the center. This adds 1.5 gram of trans fats to a serving of 4 pieces (about 40 grams). Hopefully, they're reformulating.
My interest in Frangos faded when I discovered chocolate truffles. It was nice to have some again and they do hold a strong place in American confectionery history, but probably not much of a place in my current candy-eating repertoire.
You can learn lots more from the Wikipedia article about Frangos (be sure to click through to the links if you're really obsessed). I've glossed over most of the controversy about the Macy's/Marshall Fields/Northwest bruhahah but feel free to weigh in about it here.

Botan Rice Candy
I have my favorite candies, and I've been pretty faithful to them over the years. But there's always this longing to experience new candies and how different cultures, countries and regions express their love of sweets. That's part of the reason for Candy Blog, to help everyone overcome that fear of the new and different and embrace the new and different.
This is a story about my first "exotic" candy.
Sometime when I was a kid in grade school I was given Botan Rice Candy. I know I'd been exposed to foreign candy already (Torrones, Toblerone & other European chocolates), but this one was exotic because of the pictures on the box and that it had no associations with a holiday at all. It's possible I had it at school as an observance of Lunar New Year, or just a show & tell from another child whose parents bought a box for them to bring into class. It came in a simple little box that's pretty much unchanged today. At one end of the box was a little compartment that contained a little toy, like you would also get in Cracker Jacks back in the day. In the other 3/4 of the box were little cellophane wrapped jelly candies.
Things have changed a little since then. There is no longer a little toy in the box, but now a "Free Children's Sticker" instead. But I guess this leaves more room for candy.
The candies are little cubes of jelly with a mild orange/lemon flavor wrapped twice. Though it seems like it's not that different from those sugar encrusted jelly orange slices, these are less flashy. And this is what's important about the Botan Rice Candy - the inner wrapper is edible. It looks like a slightly clouded cellophane, but it's really made from rice and will dissolve in your mouth. (I was also fascinated with this 'edible' packaging in the classic Torrone as well, which have a starch wafer to keep them from sticking.)
What could be better for a kid looking to expand her horizons? A candy you could show to your friends and freak them out when you eat the plastic wrap plus a little toy!
Sometimes I like to pick the inner wrapper off as completely as I can. For no real reason of course. It's not like it's tasty. It's kind of gooey, starts sticky and then becomes slippery on the tongue. Later when I had sake for the first time, it reminded me of yeasty rice candy wrappers. (Not really in a good way either, I don't care for sake at all.)
As a candy, Botan Rice Candy is okay. It's sweet and mild, though a little sticky sometimes. It has some of the barley sugar or millet jelly taste that I like, but the real appeal has to be the edible wrapper. There's not much in the box either, at 3/4 of an ounce, there are only six pieces in there. With import costs, it's usually about a dollar a box, even down in Chinatown where everything is cheap.
I went poking around the 'net to see what else is out there and found another brand that also features the rice wrapper but looks like it could be of higher quality.
My box came with a sticker of a giraffe. Here's a nice article that shows some other stickers. Other Reviews: Candy Addict & Junk Food Blog.
So, what was your first experience with Botan Rice Candy?
UPDATE: Several folks have mentioned White Rabbit in the comments since it also has an edible inner wrapper, here's my review on that.

Zotz Apple
We had a Secret Santa exchange at the office, and of course my Secret Santa knew my fondness for candy (who doesn't?) and bestowed upon me a box of retro items. Inside was a string of Zotz in Apple.
I don't know much about Zotz. They're made in Italy and are composed of a fizzy sour powder center inside a hard candy shell. They currently come in three flavors: Cherry, Watermelon & Apple. They come in a string of four packages (though as a child I'm quite sure the strings were longer, like you could get a yard of lollipops). I also recall they came in Lemon, but I can't find much chatter online about them.
They're awful cute little candies. They're pretty big as well. I have two methods for eating them. The first is to suck on them really hard. There's a little hole or seam in one end and if you suck hard enough you can get the fizzy powder to come out. The other method is to skip that patience thing and just crunch into it, which is usually what I do.
There is a serious amount of fizzy powder inside, a lot more than I remember. The fizz is pleasant and froths up into a rather creamy fluff inside the mouth. They're not quite as fun as I remember, the fizz was certainly plentiful, but the flavor (perhaps because it was apple) wasn't really that compelling.
The grown up version of these are the Napoleon Lemon Sours (from Belgium), which I've been eating for years and have always cleaved open the candy hoping to find a huge reservoir of the fizziness (and have always been disappointed and then put another one in my mouth). There are also Japanese versions of Zotz that I've seen at the stores but haven't tried yet, maybe that's something to put on my New Year's list.
What flavors do you remember Zotz coming in?

Pop Rocks and Shoogy Boom
While at the All Candy Expo over the summer, there was some excitement over the new chocolate Pop Rocks to come out later in the year. I got a sample of them there, in a little cup, not a packet with the final design. In fact, when I saw the packet at the 7-11 last night, I didn't even recognize it. The colors on the package look more orange than chocolatey brown (and I was actually interested in orange pop rocks).
The Pop Rocks Bubble Gum was a bit of a disappointment. I was expecting it to be like the bubble gum cotton candy I had earlier this year. Instead it was a little bits of white bubble gum mixed with even smaller bits of rather unflavored Pop Rocks in light orange and pink. The fun is gone in a matter of seconds. Either you chew up the gum part and all the pop rocks go off at once or you leave it in your mouth and have the gummy unreactive lumps at the end.
The gum itself is nice, soft but it takes about half the packet to create enough gum to make a bubble.
The Chocolate Pop Rocks are very light in color and look kind of like little crisped rice, but about the size of sesame seeds. In fact they remind me of Cocoa Krispies. The popping is light and refreshing, but not as pronounced as the Green Apple I've had recently.
But Pop Rocks are not the only game any longer. There is a Turkish company called HLeks that's making carbonated candy as well under the name Shoogy Boom. They have a nice range of flavors, including lemon and cola. I picked up the comparable flavors: Chocolate Covered and Bubble Gum. They also have a freaky chinless clown as a mascot. Seriously, this cannot be endearing to children.
Shoogy Boom is a slightly smaller serving, at only 7 grams per packet instead of the 9.5-10.5 grams you get with Pop Rocks.
The Shoogy Boom Popping Bubble Gum had a similar format to the Pop Rocks, just a mess of little gum bits and some light orange popping candy pieces mixed in. I have to give it to Shoogy Boom, they deserve their boom name, the popping is definitely active, more than the Pop Rocks. However, the gum absolutely sucks. It was like when you decide to eat a piece of paper and eventually get that stiff unchewable piece of fiber. Only this had a light bubble gum flavor.
The Chocolate Shoogy Boom were darker than the Pop Rocks and a bit rounder. The chocolate tasted much more like chocolate instead of cocoa. The popping though was far and away better than the Pop Rocks. A slight tartness to the candy inside but overall a good noisy affair. They're both a tasty and interesting change from the original.
I think what's best about them is that they don't have the same tendency to lose their pop over time because of humidity that the regular popping candies can.
An internet search revealed nothing about any retailers in the US carrying Shoogy Boom, so please leave a note here if you've seen them sold anywhere.

Hershey's Cookies and Brownies
This review is an attempt at disambiguation: there are two limited edition Hershey's chocolate bars on the market right now, one with chocolate cookie bits and one with brownie bits.
I'd seen the Limited Edition Hershey's Cookies 'n' Chocolate earlier this summer but didn't pick them up because I was only seeing them in the large 4 ounce bar. Finally I found this single serving bar at the Dollar Tree. Lest I think I'm getting a freakishly old bar, I checked the date, which says that it's going until 7D (April 2007).
The bar is composed of creamy Hershey's milk chocolate with lots of little chocolate cookie bits in it. It is not unlike the Cookies 'n' Mint bar that I like so much, except that it's missing the mint component.
The bar smells sweet and pleasant and on has a great crunch that gives a little additional dark cocoa hit to the bar.
The Limited Edition Brownies 'n' Chocolate bar is composed of creamy Hershey's milk chocolate with lots of little chocolate brownie bits in it. The brownie bits are crumbly and more rustic feeling than the cookie bits. They add a sugary grain to the bar, and the whole bar seems slighly softer than the cookie bits one.
The expiration date is identical to the Cookies one, 7D.
As much as I hate to admit it, there is a slight difference between these two bars. The chocolate itself is the same though the Cookies one has more vanilla notes and the Brownies one has more fudgy chocolate taste. The Brownies one was crumbly and grainy tasting, like there were big sugar bits in it the way brownie batter does. The Cookies one tasted dry and crunchy, like Oreo tops.
Is one better than the other? Not really. They're both kind of fun. They're both way too sweet and made my throat hurt. They both contain my new pet peeve, PGPR.
The big thing I wanted to figure out was why they brought out these bars at the same time. The only thing that points to an answer is that the Cookies bar is made in Mexico. But I highly doubt that the Mexican factory making bars for the American market didn't know that the Pennsylvania plant was gearing up for Brownie bars. Or maybe they knew that I'd buy both bars and sit down and do a side to side.
The only indication of superiority between the two is that I finished the Brownies one first.

Payday Avalanches
I reviewed the Payday covered in real milk chocolate earlier this year. That was a limited edition item and was quickly replaced with this permanent offering called the Chocolatey Avalanche bar. Cuz you know, given a choice, no one wants real chocolate. They want chocolate-like products!
The Payday Chocolatey Avalanche is pretty good. It does have real chocolate in there, it's just mixed with some other tropical oils (and that wonderful, ubiquitous PGPR that's all the rage right now) so it no longer qualifies as chocolate . Under the mockolate, the peanuts have a good salty hit to them that balances out the sweet and soft nougat and the slight chew from the caramel. The bar tasted slightly of cinnamon, but perhaps it was stored somewhere close to a case of Atomic Fireballs.
The best thing about this bar was that it was fresh. Every last nut on there was crunchy and tasty.
The limited edition offering at the moment, however, is called Peanut Butter flavor Avalanche which also has no chocolate. It's a peanut butter core, covered in caramel and rolled in peanuts then dipped in a peanut butter coating.
I've eaten two of these so far. The first one I wolfed down the night before my CNBC appearance because I wanted to prep myself properly. The bar was dry and though filling, it stuck in my tummy like a rock. The second one I ate (pictured above) was a bit more pleasant. I'm glad I gave it another try. Still, the crumbliness of the nougat center was just too much when combined with the lack-luster peanut coating. If I were a milk drinker that would have been the perfect accompaniment. But candy shouldn't need to be consumed with a beverage in order to work.
I'm reverting to the regular old Payday. It never lets me down.
Meticulously photographed and documented reviews of candy from around the world. And the occasional other sweet adventures. Open your mouth, expand your mind.
