Slow Food Hawai'i Recipes
Oxtail Stew (Palani Ranch recipe)
2 oxtails (about 5 lbs)
3 medium chopped onions
4 large closes of finely chopped garlic
1 28 oz. can solid packed stewed tomatoes [tomatoes from local producers would be better]
1 t. ground thyme
3/8 cup Worcestershire sauce
1 round T. brown sugar
Do not add liquid. Cook all ingredients in a Dutch oven in the oven at 350 degrees for 2 1/4 hours, then, if you like add carrots, celery, small potatoes, peal onions and continue cooking at 300 degrees for 3/4 hour. If more liquid is desired, sparingly add chicken broth. Best if stew cools overnight, is degreased, and then reheated.
Ken Love's Marmalade Recipe
Use a vegetable peeler to peel the colored part of fruit. Chop or thinly slice peel. Juice fruit. Loosely fill an 8 c. measure with peel and then add juice to fill 8 c. completely. Put in large pot and bring to a full boil. If you want very fresh tasting but slightly firm, peel in the marmalade, go to next step now. If you would like softer peel, continue boiling for a couple of minutes. Add pectin, 1 box powdered pectin per 2 c. peel/juice. (If the fruit mix contains lots of lemon or lots of peel, less pectin is needed.) Bring to full boil and boil one minute. Add sugar to taste (with citrus, start with an amount of sugar equal to the amount of peel/juice mixture and add to taste; with other fruits, start with less than an equal amount.) Bring to full boil again. Then process in water bath for 20 minutes.
You can use same method, with less or no pectin, to make fruit syrup.
Microwave Fig Jam
If you see figs at the farmers market, grab 'em and make this quick and delicious jam.
1 1/2 c. figs sliced
1/2 c. peeled orange (or lemon or lime) diced, plus the chopped peel (outer only)
1 1/2 c. sugar
1/4 t. each ginger, cloves, and cinnamon
1/2 t. butter
Put ingredients in large glass bowl and let sit for 30 min. Cook in microwave on high 15-17 min., stirring every 2-3 min. after it comes to a boil. Toward end of time, check thickness by putting a spoonful of the jam on a small plate from the freezer and running your finger through it. If the jam ripples and leaves a path, it is firm enough. Put in jars and refrigerate. If the jam turns out too firm, call it a fig paste and serve with cheese and crackers.
At the Hawaiian Homes Farmers Market in Waimea, everyone (everyone!) buys beets. They are beautiful, inexpensive, fresh and delicious. Here are two simple, and one unusual, recipes for those farmers market beets.
Beet Fritters
Wash and trim beets. Shred (medium). For every two cups shredded beets, mix with ½ c. soft bread crumbs, ¼ c. minced onion, ¼ t. ground ginger and one egg beaten. Season with salt and pepper. Heat 1/8" vegetable oil in skillet to medium. Using ¼ cup measure, place beets in pan and flatten slightly. Sauté about 4 minutes on each side. They should be crisp but not blackened.
Steamed Beets
Wash and trim beets. Shred (medium). Melt 2 T. butter in skillet. Add beets and ¼ c. water and cover. Steam at medium heat until tender (about 5-7 minutes). Remove cover, raise heat and cook off any remaining liquid. Add salt and pepper and serve.
Garnet Pie
2 Beets – medium ½ c. Dark corn syrup 3 Eggs 1 tsp. Cinnamon 1/4 tsp. Nutmeg 1/8 tsp. Cloves – ground 1/4 tsp. Vinegar |
1/2 tsp. Salt 1 tsp. Vanilla 2 T. Butter – softened ¾ c. Light brown sugar 1 t. Flour 1 c. Raisins ½ c. . Walnuts or mac nuts |
Preheat oven to 400º and set the oven rack at the lowest position. Steam or roast trimmed beets until tender and let cool. Slice or coarsely chop the beets to equal 3/4 to 1 cup. Finely chop the beets in a food processor (do not puree). Remove the beets and add all the ingredients except the raisins and nuts to the processor work bowl. Blend completely, then add the raisins, nuts, and beets. Pulse 2 or 3 times, only until the raisins and nuts are incorporated into the mixture. Pour into chilled unbaked pie shell and bake on bottom rack at 400ºF for 10 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to 375ºF and bake 20 to 25 minutes longer until firm when gently shaken.
Coconut Rice
Those of you who attended our Fabulous Fish! event enjoyed the terrific coconut rice that Dan Bobo made to go with our mahi in papillote, and several have asked for the recipe. Here it is:
Cook 2 cups jasmine rice in:
1.5 cups water
1 13.5 ounce can of coconut milk
2 Tbs. rice vinegar
1 Tbs. kosher salt
Mix in 1/2 cup toasted coconut and enjoy.
Poi Recipes!
Poi Biscuits (Joan Namkoong's recipe)
1 1/2 cups flour 1 tablespoon baking powder 2 tablespoons sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 3 tablespoons cold butter, cut into 6 pieces |
1/2 cup poi 1 egg 1/2 cup buttermilk 2 tablespoons butter, melted |
Preheat oven to 350°.
Measure dry ingredients into a bowl or the work bowl of a food processor. Add butter and cut into dry ingredients until crumbly and well distributed. In another bowl, whisk together the poi, egg and buttermilk until blended. Add to dry ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms. Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead a few times. Pour melted butter into an 8×8 inch pan. Cut biscuit dough into 8 pieces and place in pan. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until tops are golden brown. Serve warm. Makes 8 biscuits.
Poi Puffs (Kamehameha Schools children's Chorus 'Ohana Cookbook)
1 small bag poi 1 c. sugar 1 ¼ c. flour |
½ c. mochiko ¾ c. water |
Mix all ingredients together. Drop by tsp. into hot oil. Remove when golden brown and drain on paper towel. Serve warm.

3 c. all purpose flour 1 t. baking powder ¼ t. salt 1 ¼ c. sugar |
1 c. butter 2 large eggs ¾ c. poi |
Sift dry ingredients and cut in butter to small pea size. Add unbeaten egg and poi. Chill dough for about 1 hr. Roll out on a well-floured surface and cut into decorative shapes.

Authorities believe the fire that burned more than 140 acres of grassland near the Dos Rios subdivision in unincorporated Weld County near Evans was human caused, though they do not yet know whether it was accidental or on purpose.
The fire began just before 11 a.m. Wednesday near the intersection of 65th Avenue and 49th Street. It jumped across 49th Street, spreading to the south. It threatened about seven-10 homes on the west edge of the Dos Rios subdivision, which is in the Milliken Fire Protection District. No structures were destroyed or damaged, and no one was injured. Authorities did, however, evacuate several dozen homes while they battled the blaze for about four hours before containing it, Weld County Sheriff's Office spokesman Steve Reams said.
Dave Hess lives near the intersection of Compo Road and 54th Street Road, where the flames reached his property.
"I don't think it's set in yet that It got this close," Hess said, after returning to his home. The fire crossed his fence and went into his backyard. Even hours after the flames were extinguished, the ground was still hot. Residents who stood in one place in the burn area too long could feel the soles of their shoes heat up.
Hess works in Boulder but came back to get his dog from his home once the fire started.
"I got my dog. That's the main thing," he said. "If the house did go, I could start over."
He also gave credit to the firefighters who battled the blaze.
"I got nothing but good things to say about the guys in the fire trucks," he said.
About 60 firefighters and 25 fire trucks from 12 different fire departments battled the blaze throughout the afternoon, getting it fully contained about 3:15 p.m. A single-engine plane form the Loveland Fire Department made air drops of slurry to help bring the fire under control.
As the fire burned, it sent large columns of brownish-black smoke into the sky, which were visible throughout Greeley and the surrounding area. The winds caused the fire to meander in an irregular pattern around the grass field. As it approached the Dos Rios subdivision, some residents at the scene talked about the things they would need to grab from their homes if they were evacuated.
The sheriff's office assisted the Milliken Fire Protection District, which was in overall command of the fire scene, by notifying the evacuees. About 40 homes were evacuated. The residents were allowed to return to their homes about 3:15 p.m.
"We advised everyone to maintain their vigilance," Reams said. "We have crews out there, and we will have them there throughout the evening to ensure we don't have any flare ups."

Garrett McNamara, 45, who lives on Oahu's North Shore, was born in Pittsfield, Mass., and moved to Hawaii with his family when he was 11 years old. / Francisco Seco, AP
Hawaiian surfer Garrett McNamara may have eclipsed his own world record by riding a monster wave off Portugal estimated at 100 feet tall.
McNamara, 45, took the big ride Monday at Praia do Norte, in Nazaré, Portugal.
"Today was an awesome day and so fun to be out there," he tweeted.
"I feel very blessed, and I feel that we've achieved everything we wanted to do with Portugal and Nazaré, especially," he toldSurfer Today (not affiliated with USA TODAY). "We were surfing in zones we haven't surfed, so it was a little overwhelming. ... [W]e could easily ended up on the rocks. In one wave, I almost got sucked over."
A photo captures McNamara descending the face of the wave, plus there's video from a Portuguese news channel. Surfer Today has more photos of Monday's swell conditions, which it described as "heavenly perfect."
As Deadspin notes, McNamara's record-setting November 2011 ride, at the same beach, was initially estimated at 90 feet, but the Guinness folks verified it at just under 78 feet, measured from trough to crest.
"The Garrett McNamara team believes that the wave surfed Monday is higher than the one of 2011, but to avoid any controversy we asked two surfers who certify the Billabong XXL to confirm the size of the wave, before we talk about a new record," said Miguel Sousinha, president of Nazaré Qualifica, a company that promotes surfing in the Nazaré area.
McNamara was back on the water Tuesday.
The Pittsfield, Mass., native, who was 11 when his parents moved to Hawaii, lives on the North Shore of Oahu, home of the consistently best U.S. surfing.
In 2007, the daredevil rode waves in Alaska generated by giant ice blocks calved off glaciers.

Seattle Gets Drawn to Drawing Power! | |
Written by janice headley | Filed under Warren Bernard, Fantagraphics Bookstore, events, Drawing Power | 30 Sep 2011 2:47 PM |
Thank you so much to everyone who made it out to the Fantagraphics Bookstore & Gallery last weekend for our signings with Warren Bernard, editor of Drawing Power: A Compendium of Cartoon Advertising, and Tom Neely, artist behind The Wolf!
Here's artist Tom Neely and warehouse champ Ajax Wood saying hello!
We were thrilled to have editor Warren Bernard in attendance, barely recovered from the most successful SPX: Small Press Expo yet! Here, store curator Larry Reid introduces him to the crowd...
Warren's slideshow presentation had the audience riveted and clambering for copies of Drawing Power: A Compendium of Cartoon Advertising once it was over! You can check out more photos of the presentation at the Fantagraphics Flickr page, and you can listen to audio from his D.C. presentation here on the FLOG!
Gary Groth demonstrates his powerful swivel-arm action to Jim Woodring and Tom Neely. Jason T. Miles and Warren Bernard stay safely in the background.
Wolftrap wine was served for the occasion!
What goes good with red wine? Ah, yes... (Just kidding... white wine's better for chihuahuas...)
You can check out more photos of this fun event at the Fantagraphics Flickr page! It was a wonderful time! Thanks to all attendees, and thanks especially to Warren & Tom!
And we hope everyone will return to the Fantagraphics Bookstore & Gallery this Saturday, October 1st as we present Oil and Water, with journalist Steve Duin and editor Michael Rosen in attendance! See you there!

Bresnan Communications said that Steve Brookstein, who joined Bresnan in 2003 as executive vice president of operations, will now take on the additional role of chief operating officer.
In 2008, Brookstein was honored with a Vanguard Award for Cable Operations Management, and he was recently inducted into the 2009 class of Cable Pioneers.
Prior to joining Bresnan, Brookstein held a senior executive management post with Diva, a video-on-demand solutions provider, and served as general manager of @Home's residential business unit.
Before that, Brookstein spent nine years with Comcast Cable, where he started out as senior vice president of marketing and later served as regional senior vice president for Comcast's East/West Region.
Brookstein jumpstarted his cable career in the early '80s at HBO, where he managed the team that developed and launched Cinemax.
Brookstein will continue to report to Bresnan President Jeff DeMond.

Road win streak over, Dodgers out to start new one
Nolasco takes mound in St. Louis, opposing Cards rookie Miller
When Dodgers manager Don Mattingly looks at his club, he see's a confident bunch.
Los Angeles had its franchise-record 15-game road win streak snapped Tuesday in St. Louis, so Mattingly expects his team to bounce back Wednesday against the Cardinals.
The Dodgers still have the best road record in the National League (31-25), and are in first place in the NL West thanks to a 32-8 mark over their past 40 games.
"I think these guys feel like we can win anywhere," Mattingly said. "I feel like we're going to win every day pretty much and we pretty much have, so there's no reason not to think that."
The Dodgers are 15-3 in the second half, and will look to keep rolling Wednesday behind Ricky Nolasco. The right-hander is 2-1 with a 3.54 ERA in five starts with the Dodgers since coming over in a trade with the Marlins in early July.
The Cardinals, meanwhile, have two games remaining in their 15-game stretch against clubs in the playoff picture: the Braves, Pirates, Reds and Dodgers. St. Louis is 4-9 in that span.
"These are a test, no question," said Cardinals manager Mike Matheny. "It's been a good challenge. These are the kind of things that good teams look forward to -- the opportunity to go toe-to-toe. We have run into some hot teams. But we have been that team that people have scratched their head about when they're leaving town, too. We've been on both sides."
Shelby Miller will take the mound for the Cardinals. Miller has been much better at home than on the road this year, going 6-2 with a 1.74 ERA in 10 starts at Busch Stadium.
Dodgers: Ramirez nursing jammed shoulder
Shortstop Hanley Ramirez missed his second straight game Tuesday, the result of a jammed right shoulder. Ramirez is not scheduled to have an MRI exam and is considered day to day.
Ramirez had better range of motion in his shoulder Tuesday, according to Mattingly. The manager also said Ramirez has been feeling better each day since Sunday, when he injured his shoulder chasing a popup into the stands at Wrigley Field.
"As long as he keeps going forward like this, there won't be an MRI," Mattingly said. "If he stalls and all of a sudden he's not getting any better, seems to be stuck somewhere, that's when they'll do it."
Ramirez is hitting .313 with six doubles, three homers and 12 RBIs in the second half.
Cardinals: Miller gets second look at Dodgers
Miller was solid in his first career start against the Dodgers on May 26, though he settled for a no-decision after allowing three runs on seven hits in 5 1/3 innings at Dodger Stadium. The Cardinals won that game, 5-3.
Miller has won three of his last four decisions and has gone at least five innings in all but one of his 21 starts this season. He's 11-7 with a 2.89 ERA, becoming the first Cardinals rookie to win at least 10 games since Jaime Garcia in 2010.
The right-hander also faced the Dodgers last September, tossing a scoreless inning of relief to earn his first Major League win.
Worth noting
• The Dodgers are 9-0-4 in their last 13 series and have not lost a series since dropping two of three to the Pirates June 14-16 in Pittsburgh.
• Cardinals closer Edward Mujica is tied for second in the National League with 30 saves.

20 Best SoapsSometimes the most basic necessities are also the most luxurious -- look no further to find the top-rated soaps |
Skip to the 20 best soaps now.
So, what defines soap of the new millennium? Considering its humble beginnings in the Roman bathhouses of 312 B.C. when soap was made out of goat's tallow, wood ashes and salt*, we've come a long way. Now we've got bars that can massage, exfoliate, soothe, moisturize, and make you smell heavenly -- not like wood ashes.
First thing's first -- when choosing the best soap for you, make sure that the product is suited to your skin type (dry, oily, sensitive, etc). Then, consult this list to see which reader-approved cleansers blow all other sudsters out of the water. See the 20 best soaps now.

So many of these are "staples" in our home! I also love "Ivory Soap" and DHC's "White Soap."

Dove is easily the best of the best in my opinion, but did enjoy reading this anyways. Some of these brands I never even heard of.

The article was kind of confusing....the Dove soap comes in bulk packs so even though the prices here seem high, it's really only a couple bucks per bar.

I definitely prefer handmade soaps over almost all commercial "soaps" ... It's a totally different experience.

I'm not a fan of most bar soaps, but I am a fan of Dr. Bronner's liquid soaps. I've used them my entire life. Peppermint, Almond, & Lavender are my faves.

I love Caress bar soap and have been using it for years. It's more eco-friendly than shower gel/body wash because it uses a lot less packaging and lasts a lot longer.

Some good soaps at good prices but also some bad soaps were in this article too. I feel like they left out a lot of good soaps on the market and please, let's try to stay away from antibacterial as much as possible with the exception for the necessary circumstances.

Um well, I was stationed in North Carolina, and I went home last Thanksgiving weekend. I had to drive back, and I had about 25 hours, so I was like, ok, plenty of time. 2.5 hours of traffic, just to get out of the city of Chicago later, I was tired.
Enegry drinks pounded. I went from state to state changing the temperature in my car again and again from hot to cold to shock my system.... I ended up finally needing to take a nap, in what state, cant remeber, Virginia, or Carolina. Slept for 50 minutes, woke up, feeling well..........less ridiculous pain, but not better, because of the 6-8 cans of energy drinks in my heart and organs. Drove like 2-3 more hours and made it to the bookstore where my so called friends were non chalantly like whats up. I was on the road for 21 hours minus that nap. Never want to do that again. -------------------- BAIN POINTS:

I had to take one of my friends out of town one day and this fuckhead was weaving in and out of traffic, so I was gonna follow him and cause a scene but the girl I was driving told me not to so I just kept up behind him in the other lane......well we get into the city of which, and that tard that was cutting people off took a turn too quick, spun out, and went over the median.....and I couldn't help but to yell out the window "Haha, you stupid prick".

About 4 or 5 months ago, it was about 9pm and i was coming back from the beach... i was on the highway and everything seemed pretty normal... about 50 meters ahead i see a truck (pic below to give you an idea) and suddenly i see him turning left and then right too fast, i suppose there was something on the road and he tried not to hit it, the problem was that truck didnt have stability so i saw it turn sideways right in front of me. I was on the left lane and i was lucky he went right cause if he had gone left i think i probably would have hit him.
The truck was kinda like this: -------------------- |

I went to the Trafford Centre once then couldn't find my car for about 40 minutes and really began to really think it had been stolen. I wouldn't mind but straight after parking it I commented that it would be easy to find later on because it was near some escalators...........but there were lots of escalators leading up to the shopping centre. When we found it we laughed out loud and rolled on the floor laughing.

Two cars didn't like the speed I was going at so they changed lanes, one on the left & one on the right. After driving past me they tried to change back into my lane but they tried to do it in the same available space. So at first they don't care to check their blind spot but right before rubbing together they flip out hit the brakes and turn abruptly away from each other stressing out everyone nearby. It ultimately stopped traffic but there were no actual collisions and after everyone realized that we accelerated and continued on...
I would have laughed but I didn't... -------------------- "BAKING A LASAGNA IN YOUR PUNANI MIKE PARADINAS IN YOUR PUNANI INTELLVISION BASKETBALL IN YOUR PUNANI HE-MAN AND SKELETOR IN YOUR PUNANI UNDERGOING PLASTIC SURGERY IN YOUR PUNANI WEARING LEATHER JACKETS IN YOUR PUNANI DRIVING MY CAR IN YOUR PUNANI WELFARE WEDNESDAY IN YOUR PUNANI I WANT TO PUT ORANGE JUICE IN YOUR PUNANI EGG SALAD SANDWICHES IN YOUR PUNANI HOT-DOGS AND FRENCH FRIES IN YOUR PUNANI CHEF BOYARDEE IN YOUR PUNANI"

I have many stories, but they would be better if captured on film because it's difficult to describe them well.
One time I drove a 13 ton bus on an street paved with ice, and a car came from the right. I had the right of way because the street I drove had priority. The car tried to stop but because of the ice he couldn't stop in time. He stopped right in front of me, in the narrow "strips" where traffic had wore deep tracks in the ice. I managed to pull off an icredible manouvre that saved his health, maybe his life. No damages whatsoever. I had to do all the braking while the tires was on the narrow asphalt strips, then release the brakes and do a sharp left turn. It happened so quick that I didn't get time to think. I saw there didn't come traffic against me so I used 15 meters / 50 feet of the opposite lane to stop. Had there been traffic in the opposite lane then I'd probably chosen to destroy his car, it would have beens safest option for myself. I would rather that than get a tree or a house in my face. It was after all his fault. The right curve is not that sharp, but it is downhill for me. The green are trees. The black lines are deep tracks in the ice where the asphalt is bare, the rest is ice of several inches tickness. Note that the bus is wider than normal traffic that had generated the bare asphalt tracks, so only the two left or the two right bus wheels could be down in the "asphalt track" and get good traction at a time. I have experienced a dozen similar stories, but things like that happens all the time some place. They are not really special in any way. One example is all I can be bothered with. The really special stories that is worth talking about are those things you see on tv, like the programme "Destroyed In Seconds", and similar. Tonight I watched and there was a speedway incident. The biker fell off and the throttle was stuck on full throttle. The engine kill switch failed. The bike did unbelievable and weird things as it sped across the pitch. It did a wheelie and somehow drove over the barriers and ended up in the crowd. No people was injured. I laughed my ass off at the stunts the driverless bike did. One time I drove to Wal-Mart and I got a really good parking space. Yeah, quite funny huh... This post has been edited by demon: Jun 15 2010, 01:23 AM -------------------- The new GTA 5 website.

All my stories involve people needing to learn to drive
For example the other day some idiot tried to overtake the car infromt of him while i was busy overtaking him, obviously didnt use mirrors or even bother to look, luckily i had a more powerful car so could still overtake him and no one got hurt |

Here back in late '07/early '08 it was snowing really bad and I just got done with some post-work grocery shopping and driving back in a snowstorm.....Well, I was turning onto another main road and had a good laugh watching this idiot turn the wrong way onto the street.

All my stories involve people needing to learn to drive For example the other day some idiot tried to overtake the car infromt of him while i was busy overtaking him, obviously didnt use mirrors or even bother to look, luckily i had a more powerful car so could still overtake him and no one got hurt I got one like this. I was driving to work and the road there always has loads of Tractors on it in summer, 1 lane all the way and and deep dykes on each side, I was stuck behind a lorry, that was behind a tractor, with traffic behind us... I was that "lucky" guy at the front of the que... He had plenty of chances to overtake on a 20 mile strip, so as we came around a quite sharp corner I peeked out, nothing there, I pull out and go to overtake, and the lorry driver, without checking his mirrors, just fucking pulls out into my, I ended up half on the road, half on the grass verge before the dyke, slamming my brakes on to get back in behind him, fuck know what happened, cause I still can't remember it, I kind of blacked out while my body took control. Alls I know is he ended up in front of me, and I ended up in front of the tractor, which I guess is kind of what I'd been going for all that time... Needless to say when he turned off I flipped him off and called him a cunt. So many people die on that road, and I'd been driving about 4 months at the time... I guess it would've been my fault if I died right, cause he could've said I just tried to get around him while he was over taking. Which, if you'd ever driven on that road, you'd know is a ridiculous idea. Here's the road: That's where it happened too, look over at the right by the lorry, that sign doesn't look as dipped as it is. And that's where I'd have been pushed into, which again, is deeper IRL. This is the type of lorry it was: -------------------- |

That pic reminds me of a time I was driving back from a job and saw a flat back lorry parked at the side of the road with huge steel sheets on the back. They looked about 12ft x 6ft and about an inch thick, the reason he'd stopped was that one of these sheets had somehow ended up half buried in the field next to the road. It was embedded about 5ft in the ground and standing vertically, dread to think what it would have done to my custom headlights had it hit my van. |

Asthenia thats crazy, i hate it when people dont use their mirror, luckily this road was wide so it wasnt too much bother, but lucky nothing else was coming the other way
Another time some idiot nearly killed us all, was coming up from a bank on a blind corner and this idiot infront of me decides to overtake on it, no way he can see whats coming and sure enough theres something coming the other way, i know what you mean about the blacking out thing and not remembering what happened ,i remember this oncoming car beeping and flashing his lights and i ws so sure there was gonna be a head on collision i slammed my breaks on ready, luckily he JUST missed the oncoming car, he must have crapped himself, i did. I too will use google maps to illustrate my point at how stupid a place it is to overtake So im about here in the pic (on the other side of the road though) going up the hill and the guy infront of me decides its a good time to overtake |

When I leave a junction or the lights at second gear I always try and make it without changing down, even though it's more sensible to change gear.

Well, last year i was driving back from a ski trip, I left around 5pm and it was snowing hard so the roads were all messed up and icy... could only do about 25mph on the freeway so it turned a 5 hr trip into a 10 hr trip... so at about 2am i was half asleep driving and i noticed that my steering wheel was getting hard to push. I was going WTF? I kept pulling it and pulling it but it still wanted to go to the left... finally after about a minute of drowsiness i woke up enough to realize that i had a flat tire.. had to pull of and fix it in the pitch black because everywhere else but that 20 mile stretch of highway there are lights, but not there. Also, thanks to me, I didn't have a travel kit (AKA flashlight) so i had to use my cellphone as flash light which sucked and every time a car wizzed by on the icy roads i was afraid it would fly off the road and into my car. Luckily i was able to change the tire without incident and road on. -------------------- Seether - Country Song Download Now I've found it's impossible to be more human than human.

- On product pages, some site real estate might be dedicated to recommending content from your "vault" that, even tangentially, relates to the product. Recommending content in this way not only gets more eyes on all of the assets you've invested in creating, it might even encourage the purchase of that product. It gives the shopper confidence in your brand and positions your organization as more of a solutions seller, as overused as that term may be.
- Likewise, on a content page, products can be recommended that relate, even slightly, to the content. This could appear along the right-hand side of the page or vertically along the bottom under a header like, "Products related to this article."
Weaving together your content and merchandising strategies
Content marketing can influence search engine optimization, increase social engagement and position a brand as an industry thought leader. However, is content marketing effective in generating leads and revenue?
In a way, marketers are being asked to serve two masters. First is the knowledge that to "win mind-share", they must create, publish and optimize significant amounts of content. The second is the "encouragement" from management to justify ROI on every marketing expense.
To leverage the investment in content marketing and use it to increase overall key metrics, such as conversions and revenue, an explicit link needs to be made between the content and products. As you read that last sentence, you may be thinking "Absolutely not. The point of content marketing is not to "hard-sell' our products."
You're correct, but the way to establish this relationship is not to include products in the content itself, but rather to use recommendations to make the connection. You can do this in a way that complements and does not intrude on the online research or shopping experience by recommending relevant content on product pages.
How is that done?
E-commerce teams, and all online shoppers for that matter, are familiar with the "People who bought this item also bought ..." message as well as "Other products you might like ..." that appear throughout most e-commerce sites. These recommendations serve the purpose of cross- and up-selling products, or encouraging customers to go deeper in the product catalog with the overarching goal of increasing order values.
These recommendations are either manually programmed by internal teams based on merchandising strategies or they are powered by sophisticated software programs that observe customer behavior on a site and deliver personalized recommendations based on customer-implied intent and preferences.
The same strategy is applied to the content/product recommendations relationship.
