A wedge of vanilla cornbread. Gluten-free yum. |
Playing Dress Up.
This is the sort of cornbread that begs to be served with style. That longs to be gussied up. The kind of cornbread you eat with a fork.
Vanilla cornbread. Is it cake? |
Karina's Gluten-Free Vanilla Cornbread Recipe
3/4 cup sorghum flour
1/2 cup tapioca starch
1 cup light brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 rounded teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
Add in and stir:
1 cup very warm water (I microwave it for 30 seconds)
1 tablespoon bourbon vanilla extract
All images & content are copyright protected, all rights reserved. Please do not use our images or content without prior permission. Thank you.
Recipe Notes:
The photos show this recipe baked with no eggs- totally vegan. I used 1 tablespoon Ener-G Egg Replacer whisked with 1/4 cup warm water.
I have also made this cornbread with a half cup less brown sugar, I confess. It's less sweet (duh) and more akin to a hearty, regular cornbread with a hint of vanilla. So if you prefer your treats with less sugar, try it with less, and let me know what you think.
The deep golden color of the cornbread comes from the organic light brown sugar.
I used Bob's Red Mill Gluten-Free Cornmeal because the cornmeal is milled in a dedicated gluten-free facility (an aspect becoming more and more important to me). The texture is less refined, more stone-ground (you can see the flecks of the cornmeal in the photograph). I love the whole grain texture. --And, as always, I bought the cornmeal on my own, it was not given to me as a sample to publicize.
Vanilla laced cornbread. |
Enjoy sugary treats in moderation. Gluten-Free Goddess advises consuming no more than 2 tablespoons of sugar a day, Babycakes.

Whale Shark Expedition 2012 22 Feb 2012 | By By Nimu Njonjo
We had been out about an hour waiting for the micro-light airplane radio to crackle "whale shark!" Instead Volker Bassen, the expedition leader got a phone call from a fishing boat nearby, they had spotted a whale shark. It took us about 15 minutes to reach the spot (cruising at 35knm , an experience not to be missed!) but by the time we reached the fishing boat, the shark had dived! Volker contacted the plane to come and help us find it but just as he put down the radio, he shouted "whale shark, straight ahead of us!"
It was an awesome sight; one of the biggest whale shark ever seen off Diani beach suddenly appeared seemingly out of nowhere and came straight towards the boat. There were a lot of sardines around the boat that seemed to attract the shark. Everyone put on their masks and fins in record time and jumped overboard while the whale shark decided to stick around, maybe to check out these strange creatures. We managed to swim with this gentle giant for about 15 minutes before it finally dived deeper and disappeared. By this time the micro-light airplane had reached us and it didn't take more than 10 minutes before the boat radio started crackling "whale shark, 11 o'clock, 200 meters from you!"
It was the same whale shark and once again it seemed as if the whale shark wanted to check out who these strange creatures were, this time it stayed with us even longer, at one point the shark even touched the boat! After about half an hour the shark left us again and disappeared into the deep blue.
After a short time, the plane again spotted the shark and guided us directly towards it. This time Volker wanted to tag the shark with an identification tag (K009) but every time we approached it, it just dived deeper, making it impossible to tag. We did managed to get some great photos however, these photos will help us to identify this particular shark, because all whale sharks have different patterns and spots, just like the human fingerprint.
As we started cruising around, looking for the whale shark, Volker suddenly shouted "turtle, straight ahead!".We came closer and saw that it was a dead hawk-bill turtle (probably drowned in one of the many fishing nets according to Volker) to our surprise we saw something sticking out from the top of the shell. "It's an antenna from a tag! We need to get it!" said Volker.
Michael, the expedition rescue diver, dove in and tried to get the tag off the turtle without success until one of the clients dove in as well. Together they managed to get the tag but as they climbed into the boat there was a very unpleasant pungent smell surrounding them, dead turtle doesn't smell nice, let me assure you!
A great start for whale shark expedition 2012!

text: 222 min | NR IL TRITTICO (The Triptych) is a gem–box collection of three one–act operas: "Il Tabarro," "Suor Angelica," and "Gianni Schicchi." Composer Giacomo Puccini intended that the three always be performed as a set, and was infuriated when they were presented separately. The first, "Il Tabarro," is a dark and brooding tale of clandestine passion, full of violence and grit associated with verismo opera. "Suor Angelica" starts with the deeply personal sacrifice of a nun and ends as a sublime tale of religious redemption. The evening ends with "Gianni Schicchi" (the popular favorite), a gleefully comedic farce on greed and corruption that unfailingly sends its audience away with smiles on their faces. TWO PERFORMANCES ONLYSunday 6/23 @ 2:00PMTuesday 6/25 @ 7:00MTickets are $20, available in advance at the box office and online.

An important discovery in mice may make a big difference in people's waistlines thanks to a team of Harvard scientists who found that reducing the function of a transmembrane protein, called Klotho, in obese mice with high blood sugar levels produced lean mice with reduced blood sugar levels. This protein also exists in humans, suggesting that selectively targeting Klotho could lead to a new class of drugs to reduce obesity and possibly Type 2 diabetes for people. This finding was recently published online in The FASEB Journal.

Founder Victoria Tsai has been a lifelong seeker of beauty. Her passion for skincare began at an early age when Victoria's mother shared traditional Asian herbal skincare treatments, which they sold in her family's beauty boutique. Victoria's love of discovery has since led her to become a sought-after expert in the field, developing products and brand strategies for the world's largest beauty companies. Searching for a new approach to beauty, Victoria began traveling to Asia where a chance encounter in Kyoto with a modern-day geisha changed her course. As she began to immerse herself in Japan's culture, Victoria discovered and unearthed a 200-year-old beauty manuscript. Moved and inspired, Victoria founded TATCHA as a way to share these timeless secrets with the modern world.

Learn More About TATCHA
Traveling back to the City of 2000 Temples (Kyoto), TATCHA works closely with teams of scientists, scholars and geisha's themselves to decipher the rituals and ingredients from the sacred beauty text. TATCHA's formulas pay homage to the icon of Eastern beauty and the brand's own storied heritage. Now the secrets of the geisha live on through the TATCHA collection.
Japan's geishas are celebrated for their flawless, porcelain skin. For over three centuries, their beauty regimen has been passed down between them. Victoria Tsai, a beauty industry veteran, has uncovered these closely guarded skin care rituals. She launched TATCHA so you can replicate the geisha's precise, yet uncomplicated, beauty regimen in the privacy of your own home. She wants your TATCHA ritual to be similar to meditation, and ultimately, an experience that rejuvenates you.
While Western systems typically include sebum-stripping treatments and cover-up products, the Eastern method is different. TATCHA embraces the Eastern custom of using potent botanicals and minerals to cleanse, massage, nourish, and protect the skin. The result is a complexion that is baby-soft and glowing. Geishas refer to it as "mochi hada." The TATCHA 4-step ritual is clinically proven to decrease pore size, minimize the depth of wrinkles, reduce the appearance of age spots and redness, and significantly increase skin hydration levels.
The science behind TATCHA's anti-aging skin care is called HADASEI-3 Bioactive Complex. It contains three active ingredients. Green Tea Complete DNA Extract protects your skin from UV-induced oxidative stress and photoaging. Okinawa Red Algae Extract promotes moisture retention and smoothes your complexion. And Japanese Rice Bran Extract is a powerful antioxidant that detoxifies your skin. This proprietary formula works to rebalance your complexion so you can achieve your optimal beauty.
Natural agents power the TATCHA line. Also noteworthy? What the brand doesn't contain. TATCHA is free of DEA, mineral oils, parabens, phthalates, sulfate detergents, synthetic fragrances, TEA, and urea.

The Group's interdisciplinary practice combines a broad range of legal experience with in-depth industry knowledge to advise operators, commercial/investment banks, investors, regulators and governments in the following areas:
Kaye Scholer has an internationally recognized aircraft leasing and financing practice representing clients financing airlines in over 50 countries. We have the proficiency and skills to resolve complicated structural and practical challenges involving transportation assets and related equipment, including commercial, cargo, regional and business jet aircraft, aircraft fractional ownership programs, railcars and engine and parts financing. Many of these transactions have international implications involving non-US investors in the US and abroad and US investors abroad in complex investment and financing structures.
Kaye Scholer's unsurpassed experience in the securitization of more traditional financial assets has allowed us, in numerous transactions, to adapt unique financial asset securitization concepts and structures to the financing of the more tangible assets involved in the transportation field.
Kaye Scholer lawyers have represented lenders, issuers, underwriters and subordinated investors in securitizations of operating assets involving aircraft, aircraft engines, railcars and shipping containers. Illustrative of the foregoing, Kaye Scholer served as underwriter's counsel in the recent securitization of the operating lease business of a leading aircraft engine lessor, a transaction that received the 2005 "Overall Deal of the Year" award from Airfinance Journal.
Our lawyers also have represented various lenders in acquisition financing, where the target is an owner/lessor of transportation assets and where securitization structures are used as the principal method of financing the acquisition. Such financings include a recent $2.4 billion securitization facility which financed the acquisition of an operating lessor owning over 100 aircraft as part of a transaction that Airfinance Journal awarded their "Editor's Deal of the Year."
Our lawyers also have extensive experience in representing both borrowers and lenders in "warehouse" facilities which are designed to facilitate the aggregation of transportation assets which are intended to be refinanced in a term ABS transaction. Such facilities are structured with the typical features attendant to a securitization transaction.
Kaye Scholer lawyers have represented major operating lessors, leveraged equity or debt holders and liquidity providers in EETC structures in every major domestic and cross-border airline bankruptcy with a US component in the last twenty years. Also, our representation of a number of airport authorities and of one of United Airlines' largest bondholders have put us at the center of a variety of issues that are critical to an airline's reorganization.
Private Equity
We have significant experience in representing private equity investors, sponsors and financial institutions in private equity acquisition and financing transactions, as well as the more specialized areas of private investment fund and hedge fund formation in the area of transportation. The firm has been active in structuring and implementing a private equity fund specifically created for the acquisition and leasing of commercial passenger and freighter aircraft. We have also represented clients in private equity transactions involving rails systems, ports and trucking companies.
Kaye Scholer lawyers have represented clients in collateralized debt, collateralized loan and collateralized fund obligation transactions. Recently, we commenced representation of a major aircraft investor in connection with the formation of an investment fund to purchase aircraft investment assets as well as sponsor the formation of a collateralized loan obligation vehicle that will specialize in loans and securities secured by aviation assets.
The firm's tax lawyers work closely with our aviation, finance, securitization and leasing lawyers in planning transactions for the firm's aviation and finance clients. Our tax lawyers work with other members of the team on all of the types of transactions listed above. We have extensive experience in devising, refining and analyzing complex structures for investment vehicles, designed to accommodate the varying needs of participants with differing tax concerns. This includes years of experience in structuring a variety of different funds, including those designed to be widely held by investors situated both in the US and abroad.

DRAFTINGI have a different perspective on Drafting at my level.
I have been riding all my life and have been a Dropbar Hero, a pack rider, a Triathlete, but now I am just a Commuter (MAMIL) traveling 64K daily Commute. I cruise along at my own pace until a rider passes me and if I am feeling good I will draft. this gives me the incentive to push myself harder and get fitter and maybe even meet a new friend. I ride a flatbar Giant Cross City 1which can keep up with most dropbar bikes. I do not get dragged up the hills and then take off. I always thank the person I am drafting off for the lift....... Am I doing the wrong thing?....To my knowledge no one has told me off and I break the daily commute with a bit of fun........... Your thoughts. Giant Cross City 1
Every time I see an adult on a bicycle, I no longer despair for the future of the human race....
Re: DRAFTINGI failed to mention that the drafting I do is on a dedicated bike track, not on a street or main road. That I know is dangerous and should not be encouraged.
Giant Cross City 1
Every time I see an adult on a bicycle, I no longer despair for the future of the human race....
Re: DRAFTING
Surely that depends on the road. And if i am drafting another cyclist then the risk is to me. I do not draft other cyclists on a commuter route because it requires too much concentration for the likely benefits. Occasionally i will draft a car or a bus but usually only if i am in a hurry. I often get people drafting me because i am a good windbreak. No problem - most of the time. "Technology gives us much more information but Education is never be able to give us the skill to evaluate it"
Re: DRAFTINGI have a perspective on drafting: it's cool if all parties consent. If you want to do it without asking, that's strictly for races or bunch rides. If you want to chat, ride alongside (when appropriate). If you want a challenge, sit 10m back and try to stay there. Or just ask first. Easy peasy.
Re: DRAFTINGGood point high_tea....

Re: DRAFTING
Yes it does depend on the road....... Giant Cross City 1
Every time I see an adult on a bicycle, I no longer despair for the future of the human race....
Re: DRAFTINGi must admit that i do not mind riders drafting behind me; however i really get annoyed that when you reach a point of seperation or passing there is no acknowledgement given to you for your efforts i would consider it basic "commuting" etiquette [i realise that if you are racing there might be different expectations]....
Re: DRAFTINGI also don't mind bring drafted. I just like to know when I am being drafted so then I can signal appropriately for hazards, turns, and when I am slowing down etc. This can avoid any disasters.
It is nice to be acknowledged by the drafter too. John Beaven
2010 Malvern Star Oppy C6 2014 Giant Propel Advanced 1
DRAFTINGI agree with High Tea but I don't believe in drafting on a high traffic twisty bike path like parts of the main yarra trail or the Gardiners Creek path. If people draft me on parts of the path I regard as dangerous to do so, I ease off the pedals until they get the message.
Re: DRAFTINGIt can be a difficult one. I sometimes get behind a bike and they are doing a couple of KM/h more than me and by drafting I can keep up, but if I pass they will just have to pass me later. So, I end up drafting. That said I have had a few people do the same to me and I really don't care as it doesn't slow me down. Into the wind drafting can be a big advantage, given I ride along the beach this can be a factor as I often know if I pass the person in front I won't pull away from them but since I'm just behind I can keep up. Bit of a quandary at times.

Re: DRAFTINGI'll only draft if the person in front of me looks like they know what they're doing. There's nothing worse than having someone slam their brakes on in front of you for no good reason. I'll also draft behind cyclists who are training in, for example, Parramatta park, where there are no real hazards. I've even been known to jump on with them for a lap or two and take a pull on my commuter with panniers . There seems to be a bit of a sense that we all know what we're about when we're doing it.
And yes, you should always say thank you.
DRAFTINGCommon courtesy says you should ask first, and at least offer to take a turn. I find uninvited wheel suckers extremely irritating.
Cycle touring blog and tour journals: whispering wheels...
Re: DRAFTINGNot only is it good etiquette, it's THE SAFE THING TO DO. The lead rider needs to know if someone is right behind, too close for adequate reaction time, and it shouldn't be up to the leader to know if someone sneaks up on them. For example if I needed to hit the brakes hard for whatever reason, I'd know someone was right on my tail and take that into consideration.
Last week I cruised past a guy, he asked if he could stay on my wheel for a while. No worries I said. And after a few k's when I was turning off, along with the hand signal, I told him I was doing so.
Re: DRAFTINGIm still fairly new to riding and the 'wheel sucking' game, but in my short experience, I prefer to not to draft someone unless:
- I ask the person if it's ok - I am prepared to accept the responsibility of a rear ender whether or not the person in front hand signals or not. (inadequate distance to react in case of emergency) - Im riding with someone I know and they encourage it In saying this, I always thought the overall effect on the rider in front makes no difference if someone was on his tail or not. Is this the case or am I mistaken? Often I have ridden down roads and not even noticed someone on my tail till I bother to look around or they pass me. I am still getting used to the hand signals and offering warning signs regardless if someone is behind or not just out of courtesy. I probably look silly doing it, but meh....its good practise.

I agree it is good etiquette to let someone know you are drafting. But in response to your point about hitting the brakes hard, I would question this reasoning simply because I can't see how I would change my braking if I was suddenly avoiding something... To me the only difference with a drafting rider is whether or not I call out the holes or upcoming obstacles to them. When I pass a rider I expect they *will* be drafting me... and will check to see if they are on or not. Hopefully they stay long enough for a turn, if not then no probs either. It caused me no extra effort to have him/her/them on my tail.
Re: DRAFTING
Thanks. I actually meant for the rider in front for them to notice any difference if someone was behind them or not. Sorry if this wasnt clear. Totally understand the benefit for the rider behind. Just wasn't sure if there any difference for the person in front. Cheers

Re: DRAFTINGNope. Not a fan of being drafted. I tend not to do it either, unless unavoidable.
If I am quick enough to pass someone & then after riding for awhile notice they are darafting me, it annoys me really. Why couldn't they ride faster in the first place. Plus being in Sydney there is zero acknowledgement after getting the free ride. I'd rather pass someone or let them get a little distance ahead rather than draft... Plus as has been mentioned before, I also fear they may brake suddenly or swerve late to avoid an obstacle.
Re: DRAFTINGI say, draft away, as long as it's safely done ie. Not too close unless the pulling rider acknowledges the draftee's skill. From performance point of view, the benefit goes both ways, although the majority is with the draftee. Otherwise it's beneficial to act out a scene of suffering, it ALWAYS make the puller feel good, even if the draftee is faking it all.

Re: DRAFTINGHaving someone sitting on my rear wheel always makes me nervous... I don't know what they're going to do and it means I can't stop suddenly.
Save it for group rides with friends... otherwise hang back a bike length or two.
Re: DRAFTING
Problem here is, what distance is considered to be drafting and what distance is considered to be simple following traffic? To me, less than one wheel length is specialised skill and definitely drafting. At greater than a wheel length, one will still benefit from draft effect but to many, that's just following and perfectly legit. Based on what I've seen, I have rarely seen commuters draft closer than a wheel length. Bianchi, Ridley, Montague, GT, Garmin and All things Apple
Re: DRAFTING
I have to disagree - following as close as a wheel length (and less) is tail-gating; it might be racer cool to behave in this fashion, but in the real world you put others in danger - save it for organized rides and races Cheers "A dessert without cheese is like a beautiful woman with only one eye."
Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin
Re: DRAFTING
Actually, we are not in disagreement on the dangers of real drafting (within a wheel length), but disagree on what's considered drafting. In real practice, drafting has to be "tail-gating" per your term, or there's no drafting benefit. To truly get oneself out of the drafting range, one needs at least a few bike lengths separation, one that's not realistic on a busy bike path. So as said, anything outside of a wheel length can easily be considered to be just normal bike traffic separation. Bianchi, Ridley, Montague, GT, Garmin and All things Apple
Re: DRAFTING
I see what you mean - teach me to read more thoroughly! Cheers "A dessert without cheese is like a beautiful woman with only one eye."

Re: DRAFTING
+1 Wether you consider it to be "real" drafting or not, sitting right behind someone is dangerous and discourteous. Cheers "A dessert without cheese is like a beautiful woman with only one eye."
Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin
Re: DRAFTING
The difficulty here is as pointed out earlier, for the same gap, some would consider it too close while others see it as normal traffic separation with no intention to draft. There may be more misunderstanding than true intention. Everyone should just relax a bit. If one fines someone being too close to comfort, an arm wave will typically get them around. Problem solved.

ACF Strava ClubRe: ACF Strava ClubCan anyone tell me how to remove a personal segment time as my wife managed to drop her QOM on a segment from 24 seconds to 9 seconds. I doubt she was doing 91 kph uphill. I don't want to remove her ride but it ruins the segment for all the other riders and I doubt it will inspire her to try and beat that time.
Strava segment. In the morning, we RIDE.
Re: ACF Strava ClubYou will need to edit the ride the "car" incident happened on.
If you open the ride, on the right hand side under your listed stats for the ride there is an Actions button. Click on the down arrow, then click on Crop Ride. This will open another window with a slide bar at the top and a map underneath. Just move the finish dot on the slide bar to the point you think your wife pedalled to/drove from then click the Crop button on the left hand side and the world is a happy place. She gets to keep her ride stats and loose the drive stats. I have been guilty of exactly the same thing on a couple of occasions
Re: ACF Strava ClubHer speeding was in the middle of the ride so I can't crop it. The iPhone just got carried away with itself. I might have to delete the ride.
In the morning, we RIDE.
Re: ACF Strava ClubAnd if it was just from some erroneous data and you want to keep all the ride data you could crop it until midway through the problem section. Then you could add the ride again (from memory it shows as a deleted ride on the upload screen) and crop the opposite section of the ride. It would mean it now shows up as two rides but it would keep all the ride data for her totals while removing the problem segment time.
Re: ACF Strava ClubI uploaded my Bryton TCX file in her account and checked to make sure she didn't get any personal records etc and then deleted her ride. The segment in question is again open for the taking. She is still QOM but only by 3 seconds not 18 seconds.
In the morning, we RIDE.
Re: ACF Strava Club
91 kph uphill? *next time I'm in Adelaide
Re: ACF Strava ClubI had some strange things happen with my Strava app while over in Perth recently. It had tracked me on a ride jumping from one side of the Swan River to another and mid-ride could not find any GPS signal even though Google maps was working perfectly. I couldn't work it out but decided to turn the phone off for a few minutes and then power up again, and it worked fine after that. Must have just been a glitch that rebooting fixed.
Re: ACF Strava Club
PA for future reference Strava support can just remove the dodgy segment from the leaderboard and keep the ride.
Re: ACF Strava ClubOn a previous ride the iPhone GPS went offshore. 14 km up and about 8 km out to sea. She hit over 800 km/h that day. I think it happened when a plane flew overhead, either that or aliens.
In the morning, we RIDE.
Re: ACF Strava ClubHi all, i just joined the strava group as well.. hopefully i don't bring the group stats down
anyways.. how many of you are on the premium app and how many of you use the free version.. anything us freebie users missing out on?
Re: ACF Strava ClubThere are a few extras you get with the Premium Membership but not enough to warrant an upgrade in my opinion.
Re: ACF Strava Club
Re: ACF Strava ClubJust joined too - on the free version. I don't have the $ (nor the overall ability) to warrant purchasing the other technological requirements.
Re: ACF Strava Club
Welcome to the club.. time to eat up some KOMs.. highest i've got is 8th
Re: ACF Strava Club
I'd be happy for a category 'made it to work without being swooped by magpies' myself. but yes, the KOM is an interesting one - not really my thing, but the personal milestones are a good measure. I can only go so fast with one speed...
Re: ACF Strava ClubI started using Strava on the weekend so might as well join the club although my cycling is off and on at the moment.
My first outing I managed to stumble on a segment that only been ridden by 19 people...... Have to have a crack at the KOM before it gets popular
Re: ACF Strava Club
best share the link so we can all sabotage it
Re: ACF Strava ClubIn the morning, we RIDE.
Re: ACF Strava ClubDid someone already mention the change to the loss of KOM notification aswell?
No more "Now get out there and show them who's boss"
Re: ACF Strava ClubI actually like these alterations
Re: ACF Strava Club
I got two like this Tuesday. Surprised to see they still send them out, even though modified. Uh oh! ## just stole your KOM! Hey ##, You just lost your KOM on ## to ## by 6 seconds. Now get out there, have fun and be safe. -Your friends at Strava
Re: ACF Strava Club
Here you go - now that I had a chance at it . Easing off at the end meant 3rd Overall for me ... missed out on second overall by one second http://app.strava.com/segments/1613894 I think a 3rd on a low volume segment will be my PB for quite a while .... I could tell by the taste of vomit in my mouth and the stitch that lasted for the next 2km that I've been off the bike too long! Ended up doing 60km and was hanging on my chinstrap at the 50km mark.... time to get serious about getting some miles into my legs I think

To my basic knowledge of the situation, this is how I see it:
Killing Floor
1. Has been around for years and has a loyal following, thus increasing word of mouth about it.
2. Has an insane amount of user created content.
3. Great co-op and online multiplayer gameplay (fun leveling system too).
Serious Sam 3 BFE
1. Still new to the market (barely 2 years old I think).
2. Since it's still a new game, user created content is still growing.
3. Focuses on the singleplayer story more than multiplayer.
I could be entirely wrong, and there may be a reason that completely eludes me as to why Killing Floor may be selling more.
My general fear for Killing Floor is from the fact that Tripwire didn't port it themselves. It was Ryan "Icculus" Gordon that ported it, or at least a lot of it.
If this is the case, then how much control or understanding does Tripwire have over their Linux port?
Is it enough to produce bug fixes in the future, or is KF going to be left as-is right now to infinity and beyond?
Share it with me though, if anyone has more insight or information on how things are going with Tripwire and Killing Floor.
I've clocked in about 40 hours of gameplay with Killing Floor in Ubuntu so far, hope to have more.
Some bugs I've encounted in KF:
1. Stalkers aren't invisible.
2. Player models and ZED models become see through without a light source (e.g Scrake/Steampunk skin).
3. Moon Base has some really messed up textures. If you switch on your flashlight, a block texture just covers the parts of the map you shine it on.
4. Welding gun on KF-Manor makes frames drop to almost 1 fps.

A definitive list of the best wine of the clubs, according to WineClubReviews.net
We are firm believers that determining the best wine club is a subjective decision. Our wine-drinking budget and preferences may not align with yours, so for each type of wine buyer, we've identified five wine clubs we think you'll love.
We've hand-selected these wine clubs for you because: They exceed our expectations as compared to similar wine clubs; They offer better value or a better selection of wines than similar wine of the month clubs; Our readers prefer these to similar clubs.
In addition to the selection of best wine clubs based on general consumer preferences and what our readers like, we've gone ahead and cherry-picked the monthly wine clubs we'd most likely join if we weren't getting the subscriptions for free.
The best red wine clubs are a mix of two things: the best wine clubs overall, and getting the most value on red wine (which can be expensive for the good stuff). We sifted through our independent wine club reviews to figure out which wine clubs are really the best red wine clubs. These red wine clubs are sure to delight.
Not surprisingly, there are a number of amazing values in white wine clubs. Since white wine is often cheaper than read for similar quality, we went even further with our best white wine clubs list, looking for the clubs that offer you interesting whites, not just good whites. Use our reviews to further refine your selection.
When it comes to California wine clubs, we've reviewed the most. And probably tasted the most, too. We live in California and frequently go wine tasting at the wineries. We know which producers deliver tremendous value, and then we use this information when we review all wine clubs featuring California wines.
Love wine but can't really afford to drink the pricey stuff? No sweat. We know how value matters when you want to stretch your wine budget as far as it can go, and we lean our ratings heavily toward the ultimate measure of value in wine clubs—quality-to-price ratio (a.k.a. QPR).
Seen one of those great offers for a super cheap case of wine and want to know which one is really the best quarterly case wine club? Well, we've looked at 'em all... and most of them aren't worth it. Here are a handful of quarterly case clubs that pass our test to be called best.
Looking for the best affordable wine clubs? Our editors have carefully scrutinized budget-oriented wine clubs to help you extract the most value and enjoyment out of your wine-club dollars.
Looking for a cut above the regular wine selection in your next monthly club? Try one of these Premium wine clubs. The wines typically cost a little more, but you'll find you have access to a more unique selection, and wines that are much harder to find at your local store or in another wine club.
If you're a wine collector, odds are good you're already familiar with wine clubs, but probably from the wineries themselves, and maybe this is your first foray into retail clubs. For you, we have assembled this list of drool-worthy, crave-worthy, and even semi-culty wines to please your picky palate.
When considering the best international wine clubs, we decided it was critical to look at how the wines are selected. Are these bulk wines being unloaded by international producers to an unsuspecting American audience? Gasp! The horror! Trust that these clubs will deliver delight, and not leftovers.
There are many "standard" two-bottle of the month wine clubs out there—one white, one red, virtually (and often literally) guaranteed not offend anyone. But if you're intrigued by the unusual, distinctive, or boutique wines of the world, we suggest you take a look at this list of Most Interesting wine clubs.
Hot Tip: Wine clubs are a great last-minute gift idea since many of them will let you send a personalized or custom message to your recipient announcing the gift. This message can arrive via email or be made available for you to download, print, and give to the recipient directly.
A monthly wine club makes for a wonderful gift, for any type of wine lover. If your recipient drinks occasionally, or is someone you don't know really well, you'll find this selection of best wine club gift reviews a perfect place to shop.
You must really like some lucky wine drinker if you're on the hunt for the best red wine club gift! Most wine clubs offer "red wine only" versions of their month clubs, but this list of red wine gifts also includes special wine clubs that always ship only red wine.
If you know a white wine lover, a white wine only wine club membership is a fabulous gift—for both of you! As the gift-giver, you can save a few bucks since whites are usually cheaper than reds, and the recipient will get a box of happiness delivered each month, with white wines they may not have tried or discovered yet.
The best California wine clubs make the best gifts, too. This selection of monthly clubs has been chosen for this list based on their excellent selection of wines representative of California's many varieties and styles, as well as their eminent gift-worthiness.
Our Editors don't know it all. So every January, we publish the most popular wine clubs from the previous calendar year. We stay on top of what customers are buying all year round, but these lists act like a hall-of-fame for wine clubs.
Every January we take a look back at the previous year's customer favorites. We decide which wine clubs were most preferred by how many memberships, subscriptions, and gifts they sold through our reviews in the previous calendar year. These were the favorite wine clubs of 2012, as decided by customers shopping for a wine club.

Nats, Mets get rolling with Strasburg-Gee face-off
Washington ace to make third Opening Day start; NY righty his first
The Nationals will be more than just the Opening Day opponent for the Mets at Citi Field today. They'll provide a road map to where the home team hopes to arrive soon.
Washington is the consensus favorite to win the National League East this season, based largely on the strength of its starting pitching: Stephen Strasburg, who will pitch the opener, Jordan Zimmermann, Gio Gonzalez and Doug Fister.
The Mets are following a similar script, envisioning a rotation that includes Matt Harvey, Noah Syndergaard and Zack Wheeler leading their resurgence.
Unfortunately, Harvey will miss the entire season recovering from Tommy John surgery -- both Strasburg and Zimmermann went through the process -- and Syndergaard isn't expected to make his Major League debut until at least midseason. He has yet to pitch an inning above Double-A.
So it will be Dillon Gee against Strasburg at 1:10 p.m. ET, a matchup that may be a lot more even than it first appears.
Yes, Strasburg is one of the best pitchers in baseball. And, yes, Jon Niese likely would have gotten the nod to oppose him had it not been for the left elbow problems that nagged him this spring.
But Gee, as they might say in New York, isn't exactly chopped liver either. Try this as a trivia question: Which of the two pitchers had the better record in 2013? It was Gee, 12-11 compared to Strasburg at 8-9. (Worth noting: Washington scored three runs or fewer in 19 of its ace's starts. Gee got three or more in 20 of his 32 starts.)
The 27-year-old Gee also showed signs of coming into his own with a 2.74 ERA in the second half last season. He faced the Nationals an amazin' six times, going 4-2 with a 2.72 ERA against them. He described the opportunity as a "huge honor" and added, "I don't know what starter wouldn't want to start Opening Day."
It will be Strasburg's third straight Opening Day appearance, and he took it more in stride.
"I hope my career isn't just reflected on how many Opening Day starts I have," he told reporters. "There are a lot of guys, even in this rotation, who deserve it. I'm just the first one out. I'd definitely want to focus on making starts in the playoffs."
Strasburg made just one start against the Mets last season, taking the loss after allowing four runs (two earned) in six innings at Citi Field on April 19.
The Nationals made the postseason in 2012. The Mets haven't been there since 2006, and they're coming off back-to-back 74-win seasons. So it caught everybody's attention when it was reported that general manager Sandy Alderson privately predicted 90 wins during a meeting of club executives. Alderson didn't confirm it, but he didn't deny it either. And third baseman David Wright applauded the gauntlet that's been thrown down.
"We've got good players. I love the fact that Sandy is confident in us. I think 90 is challenging, it's attainable," the team captain told reporters. "I think 90 is a good starting point for giving us something to shoot for and getting guys to understand that mediocrity is not going to be acceptable.
"It's not about being better than last year. What does that get us? Third or fourth place?"
Mets manager Terry Collins had no problem with the number either.
"If our players perform like we know they can, we'll be fine. If we get that special season from someone, we'll be better than fine," Collins said.
While 90 wins would represent a significant milestone for the Mets, it's a minimal expectation for first-year manager Matt Williams and the Nationals. General manager Mike Rizzo noted that left fielder Bryce Harper, right fielder Jayson Werth and catcher Wilson Ramos all missed significant time because of injuries and that first baseman Adam LaRoche didn't play up to his normal level.
"We're fired up for the season," Rizzo told MLB Network. "If those players come back and stay healthy and are at 100 percent, I think we've shown what we can do. I think we've got a good team. We're in a good division. We have a lot of good teams in our division. We're not going to take anybody lightly. But we certainly don't fear anybody either."
Harper was never 100 percent after running into the wall at Dodger Stadium on May 13 last year. He underwent postseason left knee surgery as a result.
"It was a lot more serious than people thought," Harper said. "It would be nice not to run into a wall again. That's something I don't like doing. But I'm going to play the game hard like I always do and see what happens. I'm going to try to be smarter in certain situations."
Washington won 12 out of 19 meetings against the Mets in 2013. The Mets won't be thinking about that on Opening Day. But with a 34-18 (.654) Opening Day record, they will be thinking about beating the Nationals, the kind of team they want to be when they grow up.

Beautiful Burgundy Colored Throw Blanket The throw blanket is a very rich burgundy color and very soft. We give it a four instead of five because it is a little on the thin side.

A bit flimsey It was nice and soft, but the holes are really wide apart - it is a bit drafty. Also, my cat destroyed it in like a day, so if you have a pet that likes to pick at things, maybe not the best choice. Very nice color though.

Oxford Decorative Throw This throw looks good but it sheds enormous amounts of fuzz that stick to clothing, upholstery, etc. Washing does not eliminate the fuzz factor. I strongly recommend against buying the Oxford Decorative Throw.

Gorgeous, impractical Beautiful blanket and color (I bought spa blue) but it sheds fuzzies on everything in sight. Not very practical for regular use and washing.

low usability I bought this blanket to be used regularly for couch lounging. Its' weave is very wide, so no warmth, and it would not last with regular use. I'm returning it! I knew that as soon as I opened it!

Not the best I wish this was better quality. It is soft, and nice to look at, but the fibers stick to everything and it is awful if you are wearing a sweater or fleece... you can't use it. I should return it, because it just isn't working for me. Maybe I will.

Try something else The burgundy color is beautiful, and it is soft. But the weave is so loose that your toes go right through it!!! Annoying/not very warm. Plus it shed EVERYWHERE. There is red fuzz all over my apartment. Haven't decided if it's worth it or not to return. Not recommended.

For recliner
I liked the nubby yarn.
I bought this blanket for the living room. I was looking for the perfect blanket to bring out some of the off colors in my new furniture and I kept coming back to this one so I decided to go for it!! Can't wait to receive it and curl up to watch a movie!!
My mom loves throw blankets and this was a super buy!
Can this be put in the dryer on low?
Thank you for your interest on the Oxford Ivory Decorative Throw Blanket. I would recommend putting it on the "air" or "fluff" cycle if you were going to put it in the dryer.
I don't think I'd leave it in there long. The weave is VERY loose!
I wouldn't recommend it. I throw it in the washer, but not the dryer.
Hi. I'm looking for something I can use to cover a three seater couch. I live in Australia. Can you please advise whether this product would be prickly and hot to sit on. Thanks Maryanne
Thank you for contacting us, the materials on this are: 70-percent acrylic/ 30-percent wool. This will be warm but not excessively hot. Please let me know if you have any further question.
Can you tell me exactly what color the avacodo blanket is? on computer screen it looks more of a yellowish gold...but avacodo description leads me to believe it may be more greenish?
Monitor we are using shows a yellowish green.
So many of the reviews concern the fuzziness of the throw as a negative factor. Is there anything that can be done to reduce this problem, such as a laundry wash additive?
Because this throw is knitted, it will eventualy after time have a fuzzy appearance. You can try washing it with a laundry additive. I am not sure if that would fix it.

Tips on Decorating with Throw Pillows
Throw pillows can bring together a room's color palette and design scheme, providing balance, elegance and visual interest to your home decor. Throw pillows can soften the look of a heavy leather sofa or add a punch of color to a wingback chair. Changing throw pillows is also an inexpensive and simple way to change the design scheme of a room. Either purchase new accent pillows or cover existing ones with new slipcovers, and then throw them anywhere, from your sofa to your bedroom chaise lounge.

How to Wash Throw Pillows
Part of keeping a clean house is making sure all of your decorative accessories are clean.

Foam-filled throw pillows with cotton covers or other washable materials, however, can be washed -- some even by machine. Nevertheless, even if a pillow appears washable, always consult the washing instruction label before attempting to wash a throw pillow -- or you may be in for an unpleasant surprise when you remove the pillow from the washing machine.

Would have bought it last night when I was up at 3am, but had to ask my wife first. She said yes, so I'm in for 1 - great shirt!!
I've just about had it with all these shirts that promote the self-destructive lifestyles of animals! That owl is just begging for a heart attack, sitting around all night (and day, for that matter) with his bag o' mice. And we all know what's in those bottles! Sheesh, what's with you irresponsible people?!

I don't see how that would be a reference. Even if he specifically said "nighthawk" - it's a real animal. The diner would have to be mentioned, I think.
nice design & portfolio. hopefully one day i'll be able to buy "Cryptid Poker" as well
I didn't realize that "Boldly Going" in the current derby is this artist's as well. I like that one a lot.
Great shirt. Nice first print. Poor owl doesn't have dtv though.
He was prolly gonna go to bed but clicked across AMC and found "Guess Hoooooooot's Coming to Dinner?" Between Spencer, Kate, and Sidney there's enough legends to make even those noisy-azz blue jays stay up late...... Great design! In for one!

I'm a night owl, and pretty much everyone I know knows it. So I'm in for one, and then in for another one for my wife just thought it was cute and wanted it as a nightshirt.
Bounce, baby... bounce!
ordered one at 2AM this morning when I first saw it. Figured I am up everynight to check woot so I was the type of person to buy this. and ofcourse Bag o' Mice are win

ha, that's exactly the problem! thanks for the reminders - just forgot about them.
I'm a federal park ranger - and I'm here to say this owl has just adapted and evolved from watching the happenings in his current environment...the campgrounds where EVERYONE is sitting outside their RVs watching the race on TV sitting on the picnic table.
Hmm so the night owls tonight can't get this shirt cause it's sold out ironic
DarkRaven44 wrote:Hmm so the night owls tonight can't get this shirt cause it's sold out ironic
Which begs the question... was this shirt designed to reward the night owls who got dibs on it last night, or to teach a lesson to those who were going to grab it late tonight? My guess is the former, since the time the new shirt gets posted is still early by night owl standards. In all seriousness, congrats on the sellout!
Great design! Very well done. And congrats on the sellout.
thanks everyone. very excited to see it sold out! Im still somewhat new to the woot, do they usually sell out on the first day?

My opinion is that the angry video game nerd does not have the nuance of my critiques. He is the Pabst to my craft microbrew. Other than that, I said little because I was neither enamored nor enraged. I'm a bit shocked this had what it took to sell out, but I'm pretty even-keeled on it in general. You didn't REALLY want a boring commentary, did you?
you sad owls who are awake to visit here in about thirty minutes will be pleased at what happens
This is an awesome design! I actually had to buy two, one for me and one for my sister!
