Photo by Mark Zuckerman / NATS INSIDER
In his first game in 11 days, Nyjer Morgan looked just like his old self.
VIERA, Fla. — Nyjer Morgan claimed he was only playing at 80 percent tonight in his return from a minor hamstring injury.
"I didn't have it cranked up," he said. "I didn't really want to push it too hard, but I wanted to still push it just to show the boys that even though I was injured, it's good now."
If this is what the Nationals can expect from Morgan at 80 percent — two hits, one of them a bunt single, and two stolen bases — just wait til he's back at full-strength.
There's no denying Morgan's importance to the Nats. With all due to respect to Ryan Zimmerman and Adam Dunn, who each had outstanding seasons in 2009, there's an argument to be made that Morgan was actually the club's MVP. Look at the difference he made when he was in the lineup in July and August. He got on base at a .396 clip. He stole 24 bases in 49 games. The Nationals scored 5.0 runs per game when Morgan played. When he didn't, they scored onlyRead more »
- BrownSheep - Mar 26, 2010 at 3:31 AM
One of the things I love about Nyjer Morgan is his Ernie Banks attitude. He seems to exude that energy that says, "It's a beautiful day for a ballgame… Let's play two!" i think that is some of what the Nationals are going to need if they are going to make significant improvement. They have to change their mentality and start to approach the game like winners. Sometimes it is the intangibles that can help make up for what is missing in talent.
- peric - Mar 26, 2010 at 4:04 AM
He's the key to that whole offense … that's for sure.
- Doc - Mar 26, 2010 at 4:33 AM
Mark, what was the Nats record, after Morgan came over from the Pirates, and when they had to play without him when he was injured?
- Mr. Doggett - Mar 26, 2010 at 10:50 AM
BrownSheep, good point. I totally agree that Morgan's attidude along with what he brings to the offense is key to the Nats winning. Let's just hope he stays healthy.
- Sunderland - Mar 26, 2010 at 11:29 AM
Nyjer's first game with the Nats, July 3, 2009.In games he played from Jul 3 until he went DL the Nats won 22 and lost 26.Nyjer absolutely is key, offensively and defensively.
- Avar - Mar 26, 2010 at 11:44 AM
Couldn't agree more re: importance of Morgan to this team. If he is close to what he was last year, that will go a long way to making up competitive. Really glad the brass made him sit extra long and get that hammy totally healed up. Those are notorious for recurring.
- Avar - Mar 26, 2010 at 11:47 AM
"notorious for recurring" – meaning I'm glad theyu sat him so it totally healed. Writing is hard.
- natsfan1a - Mar 26, 2010 at 12:40 PM
Doc, I'm not Mark, nor am I a mathematician, but as near as I can tell from looking at the day-by-day record for 2009, the Nats were 23-53 before Morgan's first game (on July 3), 23-29 from that point until he broke his hand (on August 27), and 13-21 from that point on. Note that the middle W-L number is for all games in that period, rather than for only those in which he played.
- natsfan1a - Mar 26, 2010 at 1:06 PM
Addendum: Morgan had 49 games with the Nats in 2009, so he played in all but 3 of the games in the middle period.
- Jeff - Mar 26, 2010 at 2:30 PM
Frankly, I would discount the period when Manny Acta was managing… With Jim Riggleman in charge AND Nyjer Morgan on the squad (not necessarily every day he played), the team went 19-20. The remainder of the year, they went 14-21. I'm counting the actual game where he hurt himself as being "post-Nyjer", since he had just 1 plate appearance in the game, a win over the Cubs in Chicago, meaning his only impact came in the top of the 1st inning. However, the Nats did score 3 in the top of the 1st on their way to a 5-4 win, so if you want to count that as a "with Nyjer" game, it's even more stark: 20-20 versus 13-21.
- Chris - Mar 26, 2010 at 2:45 PM
Looking at the record of the team with and without Morgan doesn't really tell you anything about his value to the team. You can derive his value just from looking at his offensive and defensive statistics, which were both very good.One of the things to keep in mind is that he's unlikely to bat .350, or whatever it was, for the Nats for a full season. We saw him at his hottest.And while he's an absolute beast defensively, we're comparing him to Milledge in our minds, rather than to a typical centerfielder. The difference in his defense is being intensified because the guy he's replacing sucked so much.
- Doc - Mar 26, 2010 at 3:56 PM
Thanks to all you guys for weighing in on Nyjer's stats—great job! Gooooooooo Nats!
- Anonymous - Mar 27, 2010 at 2:39 AM
Let's not forget Nyjer's most important contribution. If we are looking at 90 losses he brings much needed comic relief. T Plush #1!

Phoronix: KDE 4.9 Is Faster & More Responsive
KDE 4.9 will be released in August and overall it feels more responsive and faster during desktop use than its predecessors...
They are already in the process of doing this. The initiative is called "frameworks 5" and has been underway for a while now. It will still be a while before it is done, there are a lot of inter-dependencies between bits of kdelibs and kde-runtime that need to be untangled and cleaned out if the individual libs are actually going to be useful.
I'm not seeing any difference, other then more frequent crashes. Kopete seems to lead the pack. I know Telepathy is supposed to be the new kid on the block, but that doesn't even show me my yahoo contacts; which is a step up because it used to be unable to log in.
It's not all bad, it's just a crash or two in a whole day of using KDE. Hopefully the final version will fix these.
KDE is already pretty fast for me. Can't wait til it hits stable!
It's late and I'm tired and probably not reading too carefully but did I just read "KDE becoming more responsive and faster"? But then gaming benchmarks? I mean, how does a gaming benchmark symbolize the responsiveness of a DE?
And the difference between 178 and 180 fps is really a significiant measure not just a measurement artifact, a summation of noise against signal?
I mean, fine if games get 2 more fps in the next version of KDE SC but is there any quantitative way to measure desktop experience?
He clearly said:
"I was also curious to see whether KWin compositing window manager improvements for KDE 4.9 had any benefit to running OpenGL full-screen games."
which I understand as "I'm aware of the fact that responsiveness does not mean faster games, but give it a try".
And got the result:
"Yes, indeed, KDE 4.9 feels much nicer! [...] there wasn't any major change in performance"

Comic-Con Memories | |
Written by Eric Reynolds | Filed under Untagged | 12 Jul 2012 10:57 AM |
I've been going to Comic-Con for almost 30 years now, god help me. Sometimes I think I know downtown San Diego better than any town I've actually lived in. These are some of the things I think of when I think about Comic-Con:
• The Picadilly
• HateBall Tour 1993
• Scary bail bondsmen offices
• When you could easily park in the convention garage
• When Hall H was just a grassy knoll where you could hang out before the con opened
• When I cared about the Marvel and DC booths
• When I first met Gary Groth and he had a pony tail
• When I first met Dan Clowes and he charged me $10 for a sketch but not the cute girl in front of me
• When I showed Dick Giordano my portfolio as a teenager and he was incredibly encouraging
• Drunk late-night walks with Jaime back to the hotel
• Eisner Retailer Judging with Sergio Aragonés, who brought his guitar to kill time
• Sin Alley Cats, The Ol' Prospectors, and Action Suits with Rube Reuben at that Fanta golf course party
• Danzig's stripper room
• Riding elevators with Lou Ferrigno, the guy who played Chewbacca, and Stan Lee
• Being told on at least three separate occasions over three separate years "NO PHOTOS!" by an off-the-clock Lou Ferrigno (including in the elevator)
• Selling comics to Leonardo DiCaprio, who had just flown in via helicopter with Gaston from Meltdown
• Eisner tears
• Jack Kamen's kiss
• When I realized that the Playboy back issue dealers didn't check ID
• Me, Jane Wiedlin, The Eisners

Giants hope road remains kind to Vogelsong
Cubs' Wada looking to continue roll in seventh start of season
Ryan Vogelsong will get the start as the Giants begin a six-game road trip against the Cubs on Tuesday at Wrigley Field.
That Vogelsong is starting on the road could benefit the Giants, who have lost his last seven home starts dating to May 24. They've won each of his last three road starts, though.
The 37-year-old right-hander pitched seven innings and allowed two earned runs on three hits in the Giants' loss to the White Sox last Tuesday.
"If we keep playing hard ... things are going to be all right," Vogelsong said. "We have to keep showing resilience."
Vogelsong is 3-3 in nine career appearances (six starts) at Wrigley Field and 5-5 in 16 appearances (10 starts) against the Cubs overall. The Giants are coming off a series victory over the Phillies.
Tsuyoshi Wada takes the ball for the Cubs in what will be his seventh start this season. Wada picked up his second straight win with a quality start vs. the Brewers last Wednesday. The lefty has developed a two-seam fastball that has a lot of deception, but he did serve up two home runs. He's 2-0 with a 2.49 ERA in his last four starts.
"He was very strong in his execution and made his pitches," Cubs manager Rick Renteria said. "He seems to have some deception. His fastball plays 88, 89 [mph] on the board, but to the hitter, he's throwing balls that are getting by very good hitters. The deception factor he has is very important."
Wada is 2-1 with a 3.15 ERA.
Cubs: Baez learning offensive intricacies
In Javier Baez's first 12 games in the big leagues, he struck out 20 times, had 13 hits, including four home runs, and zero walks. That changed on Sunday when the hard-swinging Cubs rookie drew two walks against the Mets.
In Monday's 4-1 win at Citi Field, Baez belted a two-run homer into the second deck for a pair of insurance runs.
"I think that was a byproduct of the process of his at-bats," Renteria said before Monday's game. "He was staying to his strengths, seeing the ball in his zone and not being too over anxious.
"Over the long haul, he understands that if he's swinging at pitches that are really unhandable, they're going to keep [throwing them], for sure. He's 21 years old. He's learning."
At Triple-A Iowa, Baez batted .260 with 34 walks and 130 strikeouts. His .323 on-base percentage and .510 slugging percentage were good for an .833 OPS.
Giants: Morse' confidence returns
Outfielder Michael Morse went 3-for-3 with three singles before he was pulled for defensive purposes in the sixth against the Phillies on Sunday, but he finished the recent homestand 9-for-14 with a home run, triple, two doubles and four RBIs.
"I'm getting hits," Morse quipped when asked what's been different. "I'm trying to just get my pitch to hit and put it in play."
Worth noting
• Sergio Romo on Saturday earned his first save since losing the Giants' closer's role in a 6-5 victory over the Phillies.
• The Cubs recalled outfielder Matt Szczur from Triple-A Iowa and optioned right-handed pitcher Dan Straily ahead of Sunday's win over the Mets. Szczur went 0-for-3 in his first start on Monday.

This soap is high quality.
Awesome scents that lasts all day. I love scented soaps. Bee & Flower doesn't cause any reaction and the scent is light and not too overpowering. Doesn't leave a film on your skin either. Not very sudsy, but that's a good thing in my book.

I began using this soap on the advise of a friends wife that owned a health food/vitamin store in the 80's. As an outdoorsman, motorcycle enthusiast and carpenter that spent most of his time outside and usually in the sun I knew I needed something to help my face and I tried it. I loved it right away and could feel the difference in how "clean" my face felt. Then when I hit 50 yo I began to use it on my whole body.

Gat for everyday use and I love the peppermint because it gives a great tingle to my skin and lathers well. Keeps my skin from baking out from more harsh soaps.

"As expected."
Now... do we actually have other thoughts about this?
Phoronix: Nouveau GeForce 400/500 Fermi On Linux 3.1
Besides boosting the Intel Sandy Bridge performance, the Linux 3.1 kernel is also great for open-source graphics in that it has improved support for NVIDIA GeForce 400/500 "Fermi" graphics cards via the reverse-engineered Nouveau driver. The Linux kernel has already supported kernel mode-setting for these GPUs and then more recently there was 2D/X-Video acceleration as well as 3D acceleration when paired with the Nouveau Gallium3D "NVC0" driver. The accelerated support though has required manually extracting the graphics processor's microcode after the GPU was initialized by the proprietary driver. With the Linux 3.1 kernel, Nouveau can generate its own "FUC" microcode to circumvent this problem. In other words, there is now "out of the box" open-source support for NVIDIA GeForce 400/500 graphics cards.
"As expected."
Now... do we actually have other thoughts about this?
Does it mean that all fermi gpu's will be supported? I'm waiting for NVC1 here
I'm more interested in Unigine benchmarks... currently looking for the best nVidia videocard (or a combination thereof, if SLI actually works on Linux) for the highest possible Unigine FPS today.
The patch for printing the correct clock values is only present in the master branch, so the displayed ones are wrong most likely.
Usual boot clocks for nvc0 cards are about 1/10 of maximum - for example, 50 MHz core, 100 MHz memory on my GTX470.
We have the code (http://cgit.freedesktop.org/nouveau/...3c1742fd6cb285) please check if it will be available in Linux 3.1
I'm lazy now so I'll just wait till kernel 3.1 and nouvea with nvc1 gets to xorg-edgers ppa.
Michael, *talk* to us, your articles could be more informative as a result..
GT520 isn't entirely a Fermi chip, the graphics engine is, most of the rest (including modesetting) is new, and we suspect it's from "Kepler". I've written initial modesetting support for it already, it's sitting in nouveau git now. It's lacking DisplayPort support thus far, but only because my board doesn't have a DP connector.
And, suspend/resume should work just fine. It has on Fermi from the start. The only time it was expected to be broken was when using it with accel enabled *before* nouveau got its own fuc. If it doesn't work, it's a bug. And if you report it, we can fix it.

This is bullshit. The Indians have me completely pissed off right now! It appears to me that they are asking the cable companies to overpay for the rights to this channel. To get this done, they are asking for the fans to call the cable companies and complain about not getting the channel. This channel will be putting more money into Larry "Cheap Ass" Dolan's pockets. Yet, he has not shown the fans that he will reinvest that money into the team. I think we would be better off calling the Indians and asking them to lower their asking price for the channel so we can all watch them instead of calling the cable companies.

Again, they just seem to always come in 2nd when it comes to acquring players, and I think that is part of the plan. They have become very good at offering just enough to be able to tell the fans they tried, but not bringing anyone in.
The only reason they sign Peralta, Lee, Sizemore, and Victor to these deals is they don't have the choice. They will all be priced under what they would get from arbritration when it comes time.
And once you get close enough to arbritation, there is no reason for the player to sign long term ,so you get it done now. We all know that very few, if any, of these guys will be here past their current deals, which is sad.

We had guys like Nomar and Hoffman debating all day going back and forth on their decisions......this argument just doesn't fly with me. Not at all.
They do have a choice. They can hold out for arbitration. If Peralta and company continue to get better, they could command tons more in arby. But, players take the security and the owners take the risk they won't get hurt.
We'll see with the others, it is not likely we keep all of them when they become FAs in 5-6 years. That's a long time from now so I ain't sweating it. But, a high majority will leave, just as they have in the past

Pup wrote:How is that too much credit? You don't think they have at least a pretty good idea of what other teams are going to offer, or have already offered? Would we be better with Nomar and Hoffman than Perez and Wickman? Absolutely. So pony up a couple more dollars and get it done. I am not looking for them to be in Carlos Beltran type signings. I consider Nomar and Hoffman in the Eddie Murray/Ellis Burks category.
Which is why you cannot pass on any oppurtunity to improve every off-season. They have a 5 year window for arguments sake.
They get the benefit of the doubt right now because of the job Shapiro has done loading this organization with talent, but with the talent on hand, they should have taken the chance to bring in some veteran talent to support what is here.
You are talking to one of the few people on this board who would take a World Series ring over a Super Bowl and that is why I am critical of the ownership.
by pup » Wed Mar 15, 2006 12:21 am
but to have a continual flow of talent and stagger it so as players ripen and eventually fall of the tree and go elsewhere, new players take their place.
It should no longer be looked at as a window, but a revolving door. At least we hope

Pup wrote:I think you are missing Rigs' point. We cannot go crazy and sign the top tier of free agents. What they can do though is overpay for the middle of the road players that are needed to fill in gaps. These middle of the road guys are what will make or break each season. Ronnie Belliard is a great example. He was not a huge signing, but they saw something they liked, went out and got him, and now he is an integral part of this team.
Why would you overpay for average talent? In other words, let's go out and overpay for Joe Randa or Jacque Jones. No thanks.
And Belliard is a poor example. We signed him as a FA to a one year $1.1M deal. That is a value signing, exactly what this team has done in the past going all the way back to the 90s....and what it must continue to do going forward.
The history of FA signings for the Indians during the Dolan AND Jacob's campaign shows that the FAs we sign generally are value guys, guys we get at a discounted rate. Whether it be the player coming off a down season, a recent injury history, getting up there in age, or the hometown discount, we've always been a team that signed FAs to compliment the stars we grew in-house, and usually those FAs were signed at a bargain price.The biggest being first base, where a guy like Scott Hatteberg, who signes a cheap one year deal with the Reds would be much better than Ben Brousard.

DirecTV snafu irks Indians fans
Monday, April 10, 2006
Roger Brown
Plain Dealer Columnist
DirecTV was the last major out let to agree to carry Sports Time Ohio, the Indians' regional network, and the satellite TV provider is doing a poor job convincing folks it actually wants to carry STO.
SportsTime Ohio President Jim Liberatore said both STO and DirecTV were swamped this past weekend with calls from numerous area DirecTV subscribers, angry because they could not see the Indians-Twins telecasts on Saturday and Sunday.
Adding fuel to the anger of viewers: They received no warning from DirecTV that they would miss the scheduled games, just days after seeing two other Indians games aired by SportsTime Ohio.
"I know we got hundreds of calls and I understand DirecTV got 2,000 or more," Liberatore said Sunday. He said DirecTV "is having some significant activation issues" as it tries to add STO to the programming list of every subscriber who should receive the network.
"It hasn't been able to figure out what to do," Liberatore said of DirecTV. "This is clearly a DirecTV problem, but that makes it our problem, too. We're doing our best to get DirecTV to straighten everything out."
DirecTV officials couldn't be reached for comment Sunday. DirecTV has several-hundred-thousand subscribers in Northern Ohio.
And how ridiculous has the DirecTV mess become? One subscriber has received every Indians telecast so far, while a relative - a fellow subscriber living three blocks away and in the same zip code - couldn't see the games.

Born on June 27, 1872, Paul Laurence Dunbar was one of the first African-American poets to gain national recognition. His parents Joshua and Matilda Murphy Dunbar were freed slaves from Kentucky. His parents separated shortly after his birth, but Dunbar would draw on their stories of plantation life throughout his writing career. By the age of fourteen, Dunbar had poems published in the Dayton Herald. While in high school he edited the Dayton Tattler, a short-lived black newspaper published by classmate Orville Wright.
Despite being a fine student, Dunbar was financially unable to attend college and took a job as an elevator operator. In 1892, a former teacher invited him to read his poems at a meeting of the Western Association of Writers; his work impressed his audience to such a degree that the popular poet James Whitcomb Riley wrote him a letter of encouragement. In 1893, Dunbar self-published a collection called Oak and Ivy. To help pay the publishing costs, he sold the book for a dollar to people riding in his elevator.
Later that year, Dunbar moved to Chicago, hoping to find work at the first World's Fair. He befriended Frederick Douglass, who found him a job as a clerk, and also arranged for him to read a selection of his poems. Douglass said of Dunbar that he was "the most promising young colored man in America." By 1895, Dunbar's poems began appearing in major national newspapers and magazines, such as The New York Times. With the help of friends, he published the second collection, Majors and Minors (1895). The poems written in standard English were called "majors," and those in dialect were termed "minors." Although the "major" poems outnumber those written in dialect, it was the dialect poems that brought Dunbar the most attention. The noted novelist and critic William Dean Howells gave a favorable review to the poems in Harper's Weekly.
This recognition helped Dunbar gain national and international acclaim, and in 1897 he embarked on a six-month reading tour of England. He also brought out a new collection, Lyrics of Lowly Life (1896). Upon returning to America, Dunbar received a clerkship at the Library of Congress in Washington, DC, and shortly thereafter he married the writer Alice Ruth Moore. While living in Washington, Dunbar published a short story collection, Folks from Dixie, a novel entitled The Uncalled, and two more collections of poems, Lyrics of the Hearthside and Poems of Cabin and Field (1899). He also contributed lyrics to a number of musical reviews.
In 1898, Dunbar's health deteriorated; he believed the dust in the library contributed to his tuberculosis and left his job to dedicate himself full time to writing and giving readings. Over the next five years, he would produce three more novels and three short story collections. Dunbar separated from his wife in 1902, and shortly thereafter he suffered a nervous breakdown and a bout of pneumonia. Although ill and drinking too much in attempt to soothe his coughing, Dunbar continued to write poems. His collections from this time include Lyrics of Love and Laughter (1903), Howdy, Howdy, Howdy (1905), and Lyrics of Sunshine and Shadow (1905). These books confirmed his position as America's premier black poet. Dunbar's steadily deteriorating health caused him to return to his mother's home in Dayton, Ohio, where he died on February 9, 1906, at the age of thirty-three.

healthy banana, date + orange cookie recipe and kids lunch-box ideas
I'm still finding it hard to comprehend, but in a mere four days my big baby girl will be starting school *gulp*. For some reason when the kindy year finished last year, I thought that between then and now things would have changed, you know, she would seem older and I would seem well, ready. Cause lets face it fellow mums, they are ready, we are not. She's been ready for a long time now, and for the past week has been asking me daily "how many days to go 'till I start school Mum?". She's so ready.
She's going to love school, I just know it. She's such a busy little bee and loves the constant stimulation school provides which mum doesn't. My only worry is how her little body will cope with five full days of it? The next few months are going to be pretty full I'm guessing, while her body adjusts and adapts. She did only just drop her day sleep late last year after all!
The day after she starts school, my little man is going to be starting kindy *another gulp*. He loves the idea of it all, being able to do more craft projects than we do at home and finally being able to play in what was only ever "Ada's" playground has him super excited. But I fear what will happen when he realises mum's going. He knows it's going to happen in theory, we've talked about it a lot, but I still have my fingers crossed that when it comes time for me to leave, he's okay. There's nothing more heart breaking than your child screaming as you leave, the tears building up in your eyes as you walk out the door.
Now moving onto the other big stress that comes with kids starting school and kindy... lunches. Or gluten-free lunches to be exact.
Growing up I had a love-hate relationship with school lunches. My mum would always pack us amazing healthy vegetarian lunches. I remember lots of fruit, yoghurts, nuts, dried fruit and sandwiches. But I also have memories of trying to hide my "hippy" sandwiches (natural peanut butter and alfalfa sprouts if I remember right, mum?) from my friends by only unwrapping just enough of my sammie to sneak a little bite before anyone looked. I always wished I could have packets of chips or a pie from the tuck-shop for lunch or just regular vegemite or cheese sandwiches on white bread, not brown, wrapped in glad wrap (plastic wrap) not paper. I also remember with great clarity how tomato sandwiches tasted once they'd been sitting in my bag all morning, with their warm limpness wetting the bread making me gag with every mouthful. I vowed to never make my kids have to eat vegetable sandwiches while at school (they eat them at home happily, freshly made). I instead keep their sandwiches simple, spread with my beloved Vegemite (wheat but not gluten-free) or nut butters that I know will get eaten, I then just add loads of vegetable sticks and cherry tomatoes separately for them to snack on. Same ingredients as a vege sandwich, just separate!
I now totally appreciate how determined my parents were to bring us up eating real food, even when no one else around them was doing the same. It was the 80's after all, where mince and cheese pies were considered good food and flavoured milks were just coming into vogue. I'm now just like my mum. (Seriously mum, thank you! I forgive you for those weird sandwich combinations, really). I refuse to buy pre-packaged kids "lunch" foods, preferring to fill the kids lunch boxes instead with fresh, healthy, home made foods with a few naturally sweet treats thrown to keep things exciting. Eating gluten-free doesn't have to be any harder than regular lunches and if your kids know no different they will never complain. (Sure you may get the odd, "I want what Sarah eats mum". But look at me, proof a mums hard work does pay off!).
A few of my favourite lunch box ideas...
- vegetarian sushi. It's my kids favourite and I always make sure I make extra when making it for dinner, leaving plenty for lunches the following day. I save the little soy-sauce squeezies from sushi shops and re-fill with my own tamari or gluten-free soy sauce.
- lightly toasted gluten-free bread spread with peanut/almond or nut-free sunflower seed butter (most schools are nut-free these days) with 1/2 banana for them to squish between the bread when ready to eat.
- boiled eggs, crack the shell a little so they can peel them easily.
- leftover gluten-free pasta salad.
- leftover quinoa and roast vegetables
- yoghurt. Frozen in summer, so that it's lovely and chilled when time to eat.
- a variety of fresh fruit and vegetable sticks
- dried fruit; pears, apple, peach, raisins, sultanas, mango, dates etc...
- stuffed dates (I blitz up almonds and desiccated coconut until paste-like and use this to stuff freshly pitted medjool dates)
- hummus in a little container for dipping vegetable sticks. This can be frozen overnight to keep it from spoiling in their lunch boxes in the warmer months.
- small pieces of fruit-based cakes, slices, a muffin or a few bliss balls.
- home made sugar-free cookies like todays banana and date based ones.
A few weeks back I had the pleasure of being asked by Amy Green and Maggie Savage to be part of a blogging event to launch their new site The Balanced Platter. It's a place where you can go for balanced, healthy gluten-free living with recipes, tips, how-to's and product reviews.
All month gluten-free bloggers from around the world, have been sharing their recipes and tips for living a balanced, healthy gluten-free life. Click here for all the links to their posts and while you're there have a little browse around, I'm sure you'll be impressed with what's on offer!
The recipe I'm sharing today is one I've been making for quite some time. Inspired by this recipe from 101cookbooks, it is the perfect addition to any kids lunch box. Sweetened with only ripe bananas and a handful of dates they are sweet but not sickly and you needn't fear your kids experiencing the sugar-low that comes from eating most other cookies. I've used quinoa flakes for added protein (and to keep things strictly gluten-free) which pairs perfectly with the coconut flavours and citrus notes.
The end result is somewhere between a muesli-bar and cookie, with a golden exterior and moist buttery coconut orange centre. I like to add chopped dates, but I'm thinking almost any other dried fruit would be wonderful; raisins, cranberries, blueberries, apricot, peach....
Their is one upside to the kids both starting kindy/school... I will now have 2 1/2 days a week to myself for the first time in over 5 years! I can hardly believe it, I will now be able to think without the constant nagging of a small child in my ear, do the grocery shopping without battling over what to buy or breaking up fights over who gets to sit in the trolley that day. I can go for a walk/run/swim when I want to, leave the house with little more than a purse and I will be able to cook like a mad woman, music on high without any fears of waking someone from their nap. This might not be so bad after all...
healthy banana, date + orange cookies
As mentioned above I like to use chopped dates, but you could sub in any of your favourite dried fruit. I'm thinking dried blueberry and lemon (zest) would make for a lovely variation too. Heidi's original recipe uses rolled oats in place of quinoa flakes, so if you tolerate use them if preferred.
makes 3 dozen.
- 3 large ripe bananas
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup (60ml) coconut oil, warmed slightly if solid
- zest of 1 orange
- 2 cups (180g) quinoa flakes
- 1/2 cup (55g) almond meal (ground almonds)
- 1/2 cup (45g) desiccated coconut
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder (check it's gluten-free)
- 1 cup (160g) pitted dates, finely chopped
Preheat oven 180 C/350 F. Line 2 trays with baking paper and grease.
Mash bananas in a medium size bowl, you will need approx 1 1/2 cups once mashed. Stir in vanilla, coconut oil and orange zest, mixing well to combine.
Add the rest of the ingredients and mix to form a wet paste-like dough. Take 2 teaspoonfuls of mixture and mould into a cookie shape. Place onto baking trays and bake for 12-14 minutes or until golden around the edges and if you lift one up it is deeply golden on the bottom.
Remove from the oven and cool on the tray 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Store airtight for 3-4 days, although I like these best if eaten in the first 1-2 days.

OOoo those look so yummy. I just need to find some quinoa flakes and I will be making these. Your school lunch ideas sound really tasty and healthy. Your kiddos are lucky to have such a caring mom. :)
ReplyDeleteRepliesThanks for your kind words. I hope my kids appreciate it when they are big, like I do now.
DeleteOh also if you tolerate oats (you can buy certified gluten-free oats these days too, although some people still react) Heidi uses them in place of quinoa flakes in her original recipe if you wanted to try that out.
- AnonymousJanuary 28, 2012 at 9:53 AM
these look good. is there anything u can substitute for the quinoa flakes as i can't seem to get them locally. i can eat anything so doesn't need to be gluten free or anything..thanks
ReplyDelete wow, great post!!! I am going to print these lunch box ideas off. I struggle every day with making three lunch boxes, one of whom is gluten free.. but my kids all love sushi and veges so its time to make a difference in their lunchboxes!
ReplyDeleteyummo! I might make these with the oat variation, they look so tasty :) I'm glad this recipe uses coconut oil, as I've seen to have neglected my jar for too long! x
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you said that the quinoa flakes can be sub'd with oats. I don't think I'd be able to find quinoa flakes, not even at Commonsense Organics!
Ada's lunchbox is amazing! It's better than what I would take to work for lunch - which is often just leftovers. Reading your post on what you used to take to school for lunch brought back memories of what my mum used to pack for mine! It was either a salad of some sort (not a lettuce in sight though!) or sandwich of some sort. And a hot flask of milo!- AnonymousJanuary 28, 2012 at 4:28 PM
I can totally relate to the warm , squishy tomato sandwiches...still make me feel ill thinking about it! great lunchbox ideas, thanks! Simone.
ReplyDelete Good luck next week- for you, I'm sure the kids will be fine :)
I am still very cautious with school lunches as they aren't kept in fridges and those little freezer squares aren't real big. Our kiddies bags are kept outside in direct sun, and there are also clever magpies who attack unzipped bags and steal lunches!
My sister us management at a school in Queensland and she bought in a policy of a fridge for every class unit. No more upset tummies in summer!RepliesWell done to her for getting that actioned! I've heard rumours of parents trying to get fridges in the classrooms at our school, but we still don't have them.
I've got two freezer packs per lunchbox and a insulated cover, here's hoping it will be enough. I'm thinking over the next month or so lunches will be very simple (no yoghurts etc) if this past week is anything to go by it's going to be a hot start to the school year (42 C today)!
Ada's bag is under cover but will still be hot (why do they keep the bags outdoors in Australia? They were always in doors in NZ when I was little) and I hope we don't have any cheeky magpies to contend with too!
- Julie PercivalJanuary 29, 2012 at 1:06 AM
Yum!! These look good. What a good idea to add dates. I actually made Heidi's version a few weeks ago, and freezed half of the cookies cos I knew I had a busy few days coming up. They actually thawed pretty well and prvoided a constant supply of yumminess for a few days of uni snacks! Thanks for all the lunch ideas!! Keep the posts coming.
ReplyDelete - Nicola McKayJanuary 29, 2012 at 2:29 AM
Hey ems
Awesome ideas I am baking this week to stock up the freezer for lunches!!! Def gonna try that recipe. Awesome ideas, my kiddies love vege sticks Even better with hommus Never thought to freeze it man I'm a nong:) also yeah bags all inside at Kirst and sams school, shesh bad enough to contend with 42 temps with out hot lunches
NicRepliesYou're not a nong Nic! I only know you can freeze hummus because when I lived in Byron and had no money I lived off store-bough hummus and corn crackers and the hummus was sometimes still slightly frozen when I bought it! ;-)
So weird they keep the school bags outside over here aye. Silly too!
Those cookies look amazing! I would love that lunch :) Sushi is a great idea. My 5YO likes nori and rice so I might be able to get him to eat it, now I just need to make it. Is it really hard? Do I need to buy the sushi rolling supplies :) Thanks so much for sharing your recipe for our launch. I hope school goes lovely and well for your babes.
ReplyDeleteRepliesHi Maggie, thanks for inviting me!
Re: sushi, it's super easy to make once you get the hang of it (maybe I should do a post on sushi making? Anyone interested?). You do need to buy a sushi mat to roll them, but that's all. You can buy seasoned sushi vinegar to flavour the rice or mix it up yourself like I do using rice vinegar, sugar and salt. To make things cheaper (we eat a lot of sushi!) I use medium-grain white rice instead of speciality 'sushi' rice. You can fill with whatever you like but I usually go along the lines of... rice, cucumber, avocado, toasted sesame seeds, real egg mayonnaise, caspicum and tofu or sliced egg omelette. Hope that helps? xx- AnnabelJanuary 31, 2012 at 5:33 PM
Yeah, I would be interested in a sushi-making-post or a veggi-sushi-recipe-post :-)
(Thanks for the Sarah Blasko Link! She made my day, everyday :-)) Okay Annabel I'll work on doing a post in the near future. We only ever eat vege sushi anyways ;-) And how AMAZING is Sarah Blasko?! Insane voice.
The cookies look great. I admire your determination to provide healthy food for your kids. So often parents cop out because they are too busy with work. You're doing an amazing job.
ReplyDeleteThe cookies look great, Emm. I'm so sorry I've been absent from the blog visiting world for awhile now. With looking after Oliver and fitting in a bit of work when he's being babysitted, I've been feeling too guilty to enjoy myself with other people's blogs! But that's got to change, and seeing these cookies you posted reminded me how much I have to learn from you, and how much I enjoy your blog. Have a gorgeous, musical, kitchen filled celebration of school aged kids for me!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful, healthy lunch box! The cookies look fabulous too! I remember my kids first day at school like it was yesterday...I promised myself I would not cry in front of the kids, but as soon as I left the school...it was Niagra Falls!
I must make the stuffed date recipe - sounds divine!I just made my 4 lunchbox stuffers for the week, but this looks great for next! It's all about pre-planning and most nutritious snacks are quick to throw together. I let my daughter pick her favorites, we have her own favorite recipes notebook that she picks from, and she often helps me make the items. then all I have left to do is to throw some sort of main course and fresh fruit and veg in her box. It's fun including her in on the process!
ReplyDeleteHi Emma, great lunchbox info! I've been wondering & your probably the right person to ask - at what age can you expect little ones to manage eating salad? I'm regularily puting it in front of our two year old, but without the success of his steamed vege consumption.
ThanksRepliesI wouldn't stress, so long as he's getting loads of veges in him somehow. Ada always preferred cooked when she was little whereas Kye's always liked raw. My best advice would be to keep serving him some whether he eats it or not, and you eat it often yourself. When the kids weren't eating it much I used to always make myself (and still do) a huge bowl of salad for lunch and eat it in front of them, they quickly started asking for a try... then quickly moved onto a whole bowlful each. Kids would much prefer to eat what mums eating I've found, so use that to your advantage! xx
- AnonymousFebruary 1, 2012 at 4:07 PM
I just read this post and was so pleased. I made an amost identical lunch box for my very own daughter Ada who is just starting kindy. My mother was unsure such a lunch would go down well with a toddler, but I showed her this page and she agreed.
I have today bought my husband the same lunch box with the intention of filling it with same lunches as our Ada. I sent off my husband with a healthy lunch box one day - he went out and bought sandwiches and a muffin. I give in. Seeing that cool lunch pack made me want to pack one for myself though even though I work at home!
ReplyDeleteYum Emm these are delicious! I have just made a batch this morning while our girls are out on a Kiwi adventure with Dad. I hope there are some left for their return! This is such an inspiring post. Kaea is only two so still a wait for school, however because she is such an explorer I often have to pack lunches as we are often out at playcentre, play group or just out!
I am new to making sushi and Kaea is just getting into it and wondered if it can be made the evening before and refrigerated?
And please could you publish a book? Your recipes are devine and photos amazing. I would buy it and give them away as pressies too.
Was it your brother at the Mount Little Big Markets yesterday with his shoes?
Happy Waitangi weekendRepliesHi Rochelle, yep that would have been my brother Ben at the Little Big markets! Say hi from me next time you see him :-)
I do make sushi the night before, we eat some for dinner and the leftovers for lunch the next day, it's not ideal as the rice firms up somewhat. I wouldn't recommend making it the night before if you are planning on impressing guests with your sushi making skills, but for kids lunches etc it's fine!
Thanks for your kind words, I do hope to publish a book one day... :-)
Hi Emma,
These look amazing, However, I've recently developed a nut allergy so I'm thinking of making them with ground flax seeds, (as I can't think of another flour with similar properties to ground almonds) do you think this would work?RepliesHi Jen, I'd try wizzing up some sunflower seeds until finely ground. I find they are pretty damn close to ground almond meal. Or try using a combo of the ground flaxseeds and more desiccated coconut? Let me know how you go.
DeleteThanks heaps Emma! I made them last week using the flaxseeds and more coconut combo (as I'm yet to find sunflower seeds etc that do not have traces of nuts!)It worked really well and they have definitley been a tasty addition to my workplace lunches!
DeleteAwesome Jen, so glad they worked out and you like them. Good to know the flaxseed/more coconut combo works xx
This is another fabulous recipe. The kids were a little unsure till they tasted them - and then asked for more in their school lunches. This recipe will be added to my baking list. Next up I'll be trying the chocolate brownie recipe with black beans (as soon as I can lay my hands on some dried black beans).
ReplyDeleteHa, I quite like warm squishy tomato sandwiches! :-) I still got pie, fizzy drink and crisp envy occasionally though!
In my case I made my own lunch everyday though from when I started primary school, unless there were leftovers from the night before available. Same with all my siblings. I always wonder why parents make lunch for their children to take to school - so many excellent and useful skills to be learnt from making their own lunches. :-)- AnonymousJanuary 27, 2014 at 7:00 AM
any idea what the nutritional information is email@example.com
ReplyDelete These are great - both kids (aged 3 and 20 months) and adults loved these.
A slightly random question - do you happen to know the brand of lunch box pictured above? Many thanks!

This site is tested and certified daily to pass the FBI/SANS Internet Security Test. The "live" HACKER SAFE mark appears only when a web site's security meets the highest security scanning standards of the U.S. government, Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover and JCB.
Sites free of all known vulnerabilities that can be remotely scanned for, such as those earning HACKER SAFE certification, prevent over 99.99% of hacker crime.
This information is intended as a relative indication of the security efforts of this web site and its operators. While this, or any other, vulnerability testing cannot and does not guarantee security; it does show that www.hardwarestore.com meets all payment card industry guidelines for remote web server vulnerability testing to help protect your personal information from hackers. HACKER SAFE does not mean hacker proof. HACKER SAFE certification cannot and does not protect any of your data that may be shared with other servers that are not certified HACKER SAFE, such as credit card processing networks or offline data storage, nor does it protect you from other ways your data may be illegally obtained such as non-hacker "insider" access to it. While ScanAlert makes reasonable efforts to assure its certification service is functioning properly, ScanAlert makes no warranty or claim of any kind, whatsoever, about the accuracy or usefulness of any information provided herein. By using this information you agree that ScanAlert shall be held harmless in any event.
Web application testing is the third phase of ScanAlert's daily security audit, and perhaps the most important. According to analyst firm Gartner Group, an estimated 70% of all security breaches today are due to vulnerabilities within the web application layer. Traditional security mechanisms such as firewalls and IDS' provide little or no protection against attacks on your web applications. During this testing phase, all HTTP services and virtual domains are checked for the existence of potentially dangerous modules, configurations settings, CGIs and other scripts, and default installed files. The web site is then "deep crawled," including flash embedded links and password protected pages, to find forms and other potentially dangerous "interactive elements." These are then exercised in specific ways to disclose any application-level vulnerabilities such as code revelation, cross-site scripting and SQL injection. Both generic and software specific tests are performed in order to uncover misconfigurations and coding error vulnerabilities.
This three phase approach to vulnerability auditing enables us to perform more accurate audits with less load on your servers. It also enables us to run any single test or test phase on a target to detect changes, test specific ports or vulnerabilities, or run web application only tests on multiple web sites residing on a single server.
Daniel Patterson, lead Webmaster for Shoppers Choice, says his company has since corrected the XSS vulnerability on its site and will be looking for other potential bugs. "It was surprising -- we thought we had fixed the problem a while back," Patterson says. "It is also surprising that Hacker Safe apparently had not notified us of a seemingly popular method for XSS."
ScanAlert has some big-name Hacker Safe customers: A&E Television Networks, Ace Hardware, American Red Cross, Fidelity National Financial, General Nutrition Centers, HP, Johnson & Johnson, NIKE, Northrop Grumman, PETCO, Ritz Camera, Sony, The Sports Authority, The World Bank, U-Haul, Visa, Warner Brothers, and Yahoo. None of these companies were found to have vulnerabilities by sla.ckers.org.
"We are all just doing this on the side," says "Kyran," a member of Sla.ckers group. "There is no targeted or unified effort. Rather scary isn't it? A small group of people doing this in their spare time, finding so many XSS vulns. It really makes you wonder what the real bad guys are doing."
