Moroccan Meal Part I
I can't help buying Vogue Entertaining + Travel. It's such eye candy and it combines two of my favorite things, food and travel, all done in its very Vogue-ish way. This is the first time I have tried cooking anything from there though. This meal was inspired by an article in the August/September 2005 issue about about Claudia Roden (cookbook author) and her daughter Nadia. The article talked about the art they create and (of course) the food they make together. All the talk and pictures of them cooking amongst Nadia's paintings in their homey kitchen made me ache to try a couple of the dishes. I decided on the Chicken with Caramelized Baby Onions and Pears (pictured above), and the Roast Capsicums and Chickpeas with Fresh Goat's Cheese. I changed some of the proportions and ingredients based on what was available to me and because, well, I like doing that :-)
Chicken with Caramelized Baby Onions and Pears
- 4 small or 2 large firm beurre bosc pears (I used 4 small pears)
- 40 grams unsalted butter
- sunflower oil (I didn't have any so I just used canola oil)
- 500 grams eschalots or baby onions (I used 250 grams of our native onions, cut the quantity in half because our little native onions here are much stronger)
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 large chicken, jointed (I used 5 leg&thigh pieces...because I like dark meat better)
- sea salt and pepper to taste (I just used rock salt)
- a good pinch of saffron threads
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger (now, I don't know if this meant powedered or fresh so I just ground up some fresh ginger)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1-2 tablespoons clear honey (didn't have any "clear" honey, so I used chesnut honey)
- 100 grams blanched almonds (toasted), for serving (this is optional but I love nuts in food so I included it)
Here's what you do:
- Quarter and core pears (but don't peel) then sautee in butter and oil until lightly colored. Set this aside for now.
- Prepare the baby onions: Blanch them (5 minutes in boiling water) and peel. Fry them in a little oil, tossing them around until brown and caramelized all over. Set aside.
- In a heavy based pan or casserole, wide enough to hold all the chicken pieces in one layer (I just used the widest pot we had, the pieces could barely fit in one layer so I had to juggle them around a bit) fry the chopped onions in 3-4 tablespoons of the oil until soft. Add the chicken pieces and season them. Brown on all sides.
- Now add around 1 cup of water and stir in the saffron, ginger, and cinnamon. Cook, covered, at low heat for around 10-15 minutes (at this point, if you used pieces from a whole chicken, you should check if the breasts are cooked and remove from pot, returning them at the very end).
- Add the pears (if they are still firm, if not add them at the end) and caramelized onions and continue cooking, covered, until chicken is very tender, turning occasionally (add a little water if it looks like it's drying up).
- Remove chicken from pot and set aside. Stir in honey and check seasoning. Add the honey little by little to your taste. Reduce the sauce until it looks thick and sticky. Return chicken to pan to heat through. At this point you can add the pears, if you didn't add them earlier, and the chicken breasts, if you used them.
- Before serving sprinkle with the toasted blanched almonds.
I love these dishes that have fruits and nuts in them (with certain exceptions) and I was quite excited to try this one. On the whole it was good, but could be greater. It was tagged as "one of the classics of Moroccan cooking" and it definitely had a distinct Moroccan taste. The chicken was wonderfully tender. The pears were a great component, soft and sweet, and subtly infused with the flavors of the dish...and a very good partner for the chicken. However, the flavor was a tad weak. Perhaps I should have went for all 500 grams of baby onions (to hell with our native onionettes' fire!), or maybe upped the ginger (the cinnamon taste was definitely present, pleasant and not overpowering, so the cinnamon proportion was just right). Or maybe season the chicken with more salt and pepper. I liked it though so I'll try this again for sure, tweaking the seasoning a bit more.
Note: The chestnut honey did leave its mark on the flavor of the dish. You could taste mild traces of it. I thought it went very well with the overall taste but I'll try using clear honey next time and observe the difference.
Recipe and notes for the Roast Capsicums and Chickpeas with Fresh Goat's Cheese to be posted shortly. This was actually the big winner of the meal. My brother, who isn't much into veggie dishes or anything that could be called a salad, couldn't get enough of it! Stay tuned...

Hi Marketman! If dishes were supermodels where else would they be but Vogue, right? :-) Haha! Will look for more Moroccan recipes, they are yummy indeed...
Dexie, thank you so much for all the help!!! As you can see, the tag is up...hooray! As for the "big magazines", it really is easy, especially Vogue which is really more for ooohing-and-aaaahing :-) I get intimidated by big cookbooks with no pictures that look like encyclopedias...
Midge! I have updated your link here and I love the new look! Left a comment there already :-) - 12:19 PM
- Karen said...
Oh aren't you prolific! Goody! Pretty soon it will take a few hours to browse your archives. :-)
This looks like a wonderful recipe. Your substitutions still retain that Moroccan feel. I know I have a couscous recipe somewhere, let me send it to you when I find it. - 7:43 PM
- ChichaJo said...
Hi Karen! Yes, that is why I need to learn the "as-of-now-so-mysterious-to-me" task of archiving by category! The only thing missing from this meal was couscous. So, yes, if you've got a recipe to share feel free to pass it along...thanks!

Tyler Architecture focuses on design in the contexts of culture, technology, and stewardship of the built and natural environment. Its programs stress critical inquiry and innovation as part of the creative process, teaching students how to intervene in the physical world through carefully considered acts of making. The Department engages the city, exploring and addressing the ethical and social dimensions of architecture and the urban environment. Through this engagement, it seeks to develop an ethos of responsibility in the students, preparing them to become effective leaders in practices and discourses surrounding the complex global and local issues of our time.
Areas of focus:
Philadelphia and urban contexts
Philadelphia offers rich opportunities for learning and creative practice. The city has a long and distinctive architecture and planning history and a sustained legacy of innovation. A center for design excellence, Philadelphia is in the forefront of urban design, addressing critical issues facing the contemporary city at large.
Philadelphia's legacy: We engage our context and its history. We find inspiration in our layered past –from our Enlightenment city plan and historic monuments to the renowned work of the mid-century modern Philadelphia School to the ongoing development of Philadelphia's green city initiatives.
Urban contexts: In our programs urban issues are a primary driver of design practice. We engage responsively and creatively in current topics of postindustrial cities and needs for the environment as a whole - green building and sustainability, social equity and access, health and well-being, urban living and the quality of life.
Philadelphia futures: Our programs address larger questions of making in an urban environment. We recognize the importance of Philadelphia as a site of industrial innovation. In parallel with practice models that are currently emerging, we focus on the opportunities that arise through the use of new building and design technologies.
Global opportunities: Students majoring in architecture, facilities management, and architectural preservation study abroad at urban campuses in Rome and Tokyo and participate in global endeavors with international partners locally, nationally, and internationally.
Design and materiality
We understand that materiality, space, light, and dimension define architecture and place. In design studios we teach fluency with these physical elements as students seek to create humane and inspiring environments.
Ways of making: As part of the Tyler School of Art, our curricula address a range of material practices, media, and scales of fabrication. We encourage digital, physical, and hybrid methods of design and visualization that emphasize an iterative process and experimentation.
Ways of designing: We recognize that the transformations of the built environment are impacted by design and planning methodologies. By working at multiples scales and with various methods of representation students are encouraged to fully explore their ideas. Here acts of design and acts of making extend into one another.
Ways of design-thinking: our programs are focused on design and materiality as a primary mode of critical inquiry. We recognize that design is best served when it begins with knowledge and critical thinking. Our curricula recognize the importance of inquiry and stress the role of theory and analytical methods of knowledge production.
Leadership in a changing world
We recognize the multiple modes of leadership practiced by built environment professionals and embrace different forms of leadership in a changing world. As a faculty we present different facets of leadership to our students.
Collaboration: Architecture and allied disciplines are collaborative practices. In our programs pedagogy and research are applied and connected to real conditions through partnerships with external entities and among university disciplines. In this way, architectural education ensures its relevance to the transforming world of practice and graduates are better able to navigate a complex professional world.
Advocacy and Social Practices: We recognize that architecture has a primary role in the making of places aimed at improving environments. In curricula and research, the department addresses the complex socio-economic, environmental, cultural and political dynamics of the contemporary city and explores opportunities for design in a world impacted by globalization. The department is committed to graduating students who through their practice, will advocate for ethical design in the public realm.
Diversity: Our faculty represents the diverse roles and multiple ways to engage in design leadership, Understanding that a community with professional diversity presents a way of leveraging leadership, we are fully committed to supporting students and alumni in their intellectual aspirations and careers We recognize the diverse cultures and learning styles of our students and consider this form of diversity as an important factor in the future of architectural practice.
The Architecture Department offers three undergraduate degrees, a Bachelor of Science in Architecture, a Bachelor of Science in Facilities Management, and a Bachelor of Science in Architectural Preservation. These three programs share a common two-year foundation studies program. Upon successful completion of this preparatory program, students may enter one of three programs: the BS Facilities Management professional program, the BS Architectural Preservation, or the BS Architecture pre-professional program.
The Architecture Department also offers a two year Master of Architecture (M Arch). When earned sequentially, the four-year pre-professional BS Arch and the two-year professional M Arch comprise a National Architecture Accreditation Board (NAAB, http://www.naab.org) accredited professional education. Holders of the M Arch may be admitted, upon completion of postgraduate internship, to the architectural licensing examination offered in each state, through which they may become registered architects.

The SonarQubeTM Runner is recommended as the default launcher to analyze a project with SonarQubeTM.
You must have previously installed the SonarQubeTM Runner and read Analyzing Code Source.
Simple Project
Create a configuration file in the root directory of the project: sonar-project.properties
Run the following command from the project base directory to launch the analysis:
Since SonarQubeTM 3.4, if a project cannot be accessed anonymously, the sonar.login
and sonar.password
properties are required to run an analysis on this project. These properties have to be set to the credentials of a user having the 'User' role on this project. You can set them either:
- directly on the command line by adding
-Dsonar.login=myUser -Dsonar.password=myPassword
- or in the sonar-project.properties project configuration file
- or in the sonar-runner.properties global configuration file
A project cannot be anonymously accessed when either:
- the
property is set totrue
- or the
property is set tofalse
and the Anyone group has not been granted a User role on the project
Project Samples
To help you getting started, for each language, a simple project sample is available on github that can be browsed or downloaded: projects/languages
Multi-module Project
There are two ways to define a multi-module structure in SonarQubeTM:
Using the given file structure... | ... with the given 'properties' files | |
Way #1 Set all the configuration in the properties file in the root folder | "MyProject/sonar-project.properties" file content | |
Way #2 Set the configuration in multiple properties files | "MyProject/sonar-project.properties" file content "MyProject/module1/sonar-project.properties" file content "MyProject/module2/sonar-project.properties" file content |
- Properties are inherited from parent to children
They can obviously be overriden:- By prefixing them with the module identifier (way #1)
- Simply by defining them in the sonar-project.properties file located in the module (way #2)
- Module base directory can be specified for special cases
By default, the module base directory is guessed from the module identifier (like in the examples above). But it can be redefined using thesonar.projectBaseDir
For instance, here are two use cases and the way to redefine the base directory of the modules:the folder of a module contains white spaces or special characters:
the module is not located directly in the parent folder, but in a deeper directory structure:
- A project that defines modules (or a module that defines sub-modules) cannot define a source code folder to be analyzed.
To help you getting started, multi-module project samples are available on github that can be browsed or downloaded:
- Modules with the same structure: projects/multi-module/sonar-runner/java-sonar-runner-modules-same-structure
- Modules with different structures: projects/multi-module/sonar-runner/java-sonar-runner-modules-different-structures
- A configuration file for each module: projects/multi-module/sonar-runner/java-sonar-runner-modules-own-configuration-file
Multi-module and Multi-language Project
Since SonarQubeTM 3.3, it is possible to run an analysis on a multi-module project whose modules contains source code from different languages.
In addition to the multi-module configuration, the only mandatory property to set is the language for each module:
To help you getting started, a multi-language project sample is available on github that can be browsed or downloaded: projects/languages/multi-language/multi-language-java-javascript-sonar-runner
Running Task
Before SonarQubeTM 3.6, it was only possible to run a project analysis. Since SonarQubeTM 3.6, it is possible to run other tasks such as:
Advanced Usage
If a sonar-project.properties file cannot be created in the root directory of the project, there are several alternatives:
The properties can be specified directly through the command line. Ex:
The property 'project.settings' can be used to specify the path to the project configuration file (this option is incompatible with the 'project.home' property). Ex:
The root folder of the project to analyze can be set through the 'project.home' property. This folder must contain a sonar-project.properties file if the mandatory properties (like sonar.projectKey
) are not specified on the command line.
Additional analysis parameters can be defined in this project configuration file or through command-line parameters.
Migrating from SonarQubeTM Runner 1.X to SonarQubeTM Runner 2.0
Replace the following properties in the sonar-project.properties file:
property in the sonar-project.properties file.

Although Victorinox is known the world over as the creator of the Original Swiss Army Knife, the company started out in 1884 as a cutlery workshop. By the time company creator Karl Elsener delivered his first pocket knife to the Swiss Army, his cutlery business was already booming. Over the next century, Victorinox cutlery became a top-rated choice among professionals worldwide, with over 300 blades to offer.
Victorinox knives have regularly appeared as highly ranked and recommended kitchen tools in Cook's Illustrated, Men's Health, The Cincinnati Enquirer, New York Magazine, and Natural Health, just to name a few. In 2009, the company announced a partnership with professional chef, Daniel Humm, of Eleven Madison Park in New York City. In addition, building on the success of its cutlery business, Victorinox has brought all the same quality and expertise to a wider range of products and accessories, including other kitchen tools, pocket tools, watches, luggage, and clothing.
Victorinox had been a staple in European commercial cutlery for over 50 years when approached by New York's R.H. Forschner, known since 1855 as a builder of scales for butchers, to be their sole cutlery supplier. The two companies joined forces in 1937, and R.H. Forschner subsequently became North America's dominant professional brand, as ubiquitous in the bustling meatpacking plants of the Midwest as it is in the gleaming, four-star restaurant kitchens of Midtown Manhattan.
As a division of Victorinox/Swiss Army Brands, R.H. Forschner marketed cutlery under the brand name "RH Forschner by Victorinox" and distributed to the commercial, food service, and retail trade classes. That brand has been considered a top choice of professionals worldwide with over 300 styles of blades bearing the R.H. Forschner name. However, in 2009, in conjunction with Victorinox's 125th anniversary, the company, Victorinox Swiss Army, Inc., has decided to remove the "RH Forschner" name from all blades. Blades thenceforth only include the "Victorinox" name.
A stamped knife can usually be identified by the absence of a bolster. Stamped blades are cut into their shapes from cold-rolled pieces of steel and then ground, tempered, and sharpened. Creating them requires many less steps than forging and results in lighter, narrower blades. Some professionals prefer the thicker, heavier forged blades, but many pros, who spend much of their day cutting and slicing, enjoy a lighter knife since it's less fatiguing and easier to manipulate at speed.
Stamped knives are easier to produce and therefore less expensive. They perform very well and can approach the quality of a forged blade, but not the weight or feel. Victorinox manufactures a complete range of stamped blades with unique, patented Fibrox handles and they are considered among the greatest values in the knife industry.
Knife choice or selection is determined by many factors--size, function, style, and preference. The most important factor is function. Different knives have different uses. It is important to use the proper knife for a specific task, since proper knife selection and the use of a proper-sized, sharp knife make for safe cutting. General kitchen tasks and the knife to use for them are as follows:
After use, knives should not be allowed to soak in water. The best practice is to hand wash and dry them immediately. This is especially true if they have been used on fruit or salty foods, which may cause some staining, even on stainless steel. Most knives require very little maintenance and it is worth the effort to protect your investment.
Though Victorinox knives are dishwasher safe, this is strongly discouraged. The dishwasher's agitation may cause damage. Additionally, harsh detergents can be harmful and cause pitting and spotting on the blades. The handles may also discolor and develop a white film with constant use of the dishwasher. Plus, intense heat associated with dishwashers is not good for the temper of the blade.
All quality knives require proper maintenance to keep them in perfect cutting shape. The best of edges will quickly dull if it strikes metal, glass, or Formica. A wooden cutting board makes the best cutting surface. And, if a slip occurs, a proper cutting board is safer for the user. Frequent use of a Victorinox sharpening steel will keep blades in tip top working condition. All straight-edge knives need steeling to keep their edges.
Safety is the biggest concern of storage, both to the user and to protect the knife's edge. Choices include a knife magnet, knife block, drawer insets, and also individual knife protectors.

We received word of my husband's deployment to Iraq late last year. When I heard that my husband was going to be deployed to Tallil Iraq, I went into total panic mode. I knew there was no way they could send him with me as sick as I was at the time, but even with letters from all my doctors, including Dr Addani Frost, they still deployed him as planned.
He went through vigorous training for 4 months. I have been alone with my 3 daughters since August of 2004.
Instantly, I felt the stress of being a single mother hit. I began having palpitations and reflux on a daily basis. My echo cardiogram showed increased Pulmonary Arterial Pressures as well as a slight increase to the size of my heart.
Being both mother and father would be very difficult for a healthy woman, but being two people in one for a sick person is, in my opinion, much more difficult.
When I was first diagnosed, Dr. Frost warned my husband not to let me worry or stress over anything, including bills. Stress and worry are especially difficult for me as it increases my heart rate as well as my Pulmonary Arterial Pressures.
I have had to take on all the duties my husband previously had. Managing the check book for me is the most mentally trying, but dealing with the day to day activities of running our home is most trying.
I have also had to take on a part time job managing a deli to help with the financial aspect of my husband's activation.
We also have a special needs child who has Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Obedience Defiance Disorder and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. By the end of the day, I'm so exhausted I can't even fall asleep right away. I also have been waking up during the night for fear of missing a call from my husband in Iraq, or over sleeping and having my children be late for school.
The worst part of my husband being gone is seeing my daughters miss him so. My heart breaks when I see this.

The fiber in food provides the roughage or bulk that, in turn, stimulates the bowel. It is generally recommended that you consume at least 25 grams of dietary fiber a day to promote good bowel health. The major sources of dietary fiber are fruits, vegetables, whole grains and dried beans.
However, a common side effect of radiation treatment and many chemotherapy drugs is diarrhea. If you experience treatment-related diarrhea you should follow a low fiber diet and limit your intake of dietary fiber to about 10 grams a day. A low fiber diet is better tolerated with diarrhea because it will not stimulate the bowel as much and it will be easier to digest.
Food Group |
High Fiber Foods to AVOID |
Low Fiber Foods ALLOWED |
Fruits |
Raw fruits |
Bananas |
Vegetables |
Broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, corn, peas, peppers, radishes, and spinach Raw vegetables |
Vegetables not on avoid list. Best tolerated: asparagus, green beans and summer squash Peel, seed and cook vegetables until they are soft |
Breads & pastas |
Whole wheat and whole grains Brown rice |
Bread products made with refined white flour |
Food Group |
High Fiber Foods to AVOID |
Low Fiber Foods ALLOWED |
Cereals |
Whole grains |
Cold cereals - Rice Krispies, Corn Flakes, Cheerios, Special K, Golden Grahams, Rice and Corn Chex Hot cereals - Oatmeal, Cream of Rice, Cream of Wheat, Farina and Grits Choose cereals that have less than 2 grams of fiber per serving |
Nuts |
Whole nuts and chunky nut butters |
Smooth nut butters |
Dried beans & legumes |
Lentils, lima beans, chick peas, kidney beans and black beans, etc. |
Meat, poultry, fish and eggs |
All allowed |
Milk and milk products |
Allowed unless lactose intolerant |
Miscellaneous |
Any foods that contain corn (including popcorn and tortilla chips), seeds, nuts, coconut or dried fruit |
To find out how much fiber is in a serving of a food use food labels. Look for "Dietary Fiber" in the list of nutrients. Choose foods that have 2 grams or less of dietary fiber per serving.
Soluble fiber is a type of fiber found in some foods. Soluble fiber absorbs fluid and can help relieve diarrhea. Foods high in soluble fiber include:
Eat bland and easy to digest foods such as chicken, fish, eggs, puddings, mashed potatoes, noodles, rice, yogurt, cottage cheese, cream of wheat, farina, smooth peanut butter, white bread, bananas, applesauce, canned fruit and well cooked vegetables. Eating 5 to 6 small meals/snacks throughout the day is often better tolerated than eating 3 large meals.
This is a sample meal plan to follow if you have diarrhea. It is low in dietary fiber and high in soluble fiber.

More About This Wine
About Chehalem
Almost thirty years ago Harry Peterson-Nedry began scouting potential vineyard locations in Oregon's burgeoning wine country. He soon discovered what's now called Ribbon Ridge, an ancient, uniform sedimentary hillside at the extreme western end of the Chehalem Mountains. There, he planted the Ridgecrest Vineyard, Chehalem's oldest, in 1982.

Re: The Aviator
This shirt will be fun to wear. Lots of shirt color showing through for that famous Cho-flexibility, despite the relatively large size of the print.
Re: Personal Steamputer
There's really a TON going on here. More focus would nice - something simple but not too much so. Maybe pulling your favorite elements out of this design and condensing it. There's too much for the eye to take in and it just ends up going, "oh ... cool" rather than "oh wow ... look at these 4-5 really AWESOME aspects" ... Just a bit of input as a consumer - I know my art would never make it to the top 4 but this really has a lot of potential. Overall, great work. :-)
Appreciate it everyone. A hardcore job, and other work has kept me from here, but i'll try to submit more when there is an opportunity. Thanks for the votes n Gigli (2003). YOU GUYZ R THE BEST BFFL 4EVA kikz. Laser Floyd show.
Re: Combustible Prey
Well done, Loop! That was a tough scene to draw but you nailed it- it really looks like it's tearing in to that bag. Excellent work.
Re: Rustic
Re: Let's Play
I absolutely love the textures you put in this, but I don't really feel the Steampunk in this. Adding steam and gear wheels doesn't make something Steampunk. I hope we'll be seeing more creative uses of textures in your future pieces! They really did turn out very well.
Re: NIGHTTIME COOLNESS
I'd wear it.
Re: Gamepunk
Note to all of my supporters: If this shirt doesn't end up getting reinstated soon (which I'm sure it won't), it will be available for purchase at www.cafepress.com/A2Ts within the next day or so. Look for it! Thanks for your support!
Re: Synthetic Beauty
Much better! This one definitely fits the definition of Steampunk so much more than your robot entry. This is stunning. I hope it takes Top 3 because I /want/ this shirt. If I had my wishes, I'd wish this to be a large wall graphic to put in my computer room. sigh. It would sit over my lego Mechwarrior Madcat, lego AT-ST, lego speeder bike and Big Daddy (Bioshock 2) figure.
Re: The Girl in Red
At first glance, it looks really interesting. But then you see some massive, strangely placed smokestacks coming out of the wolf's back and are all "The breadsticks need marinara!"!? They're really oddly placed and seem out of proportion with the rest of the wolf. That and they just make no sense at all -- what the hell are they actually powering, anyways?

Re: Steam Goliath
This is great! The robot is awesome, the teeth are loose and perfect, you nailed the kid's posture... And then the placement is icing on the cake. Mad props.

Re: Phineas the Aeronaut
Oh, come on! You just submited this a couple derbies ago! >.<
This is amazing, but it strikes me more as cyberpunk than steampunk. Can you do a resub? The wolf needs gears and the smokestacks need to look more like tailpipes than factory smokestacks
This is a great design. It deserves to be higher up!
elwayman02 wrote:hmm, I feel like this could be a little smaller on the shirt and look a lot better.
I agree, it would look a lot better if it was resized smaller. What pantone did you use for this shirt? As to clear up the confusion. :]
That's what I was thinking. When I saw this, it screamed to be placed in top right of the shirt. Otherwise, nice work. Very clean and simple.
I'm so glad this one's done. I'm so sick of looking at it. Got trapped in details. I hope you guys like it. Details
Re: Outpost
This shirt is great! Fantastic placement on the different pieces. The floating islands are a nice touch.
If you're going to resubmit a design, it must be significantly modified. The rejectionator will judge whether or not your modification is "significant" - sometimes it's fine to just change the colour palette or add a couple of extra fluorishes to the background, sometimes redrawing the entire design is still not enough. But if you make no changes at all, it's almost a guaranteed rejection!
The art is awesome. It's true about it being hard to quickly tell what's going on and find a fast focus (you're stuck in illustrator-mode aren't you!). I think if you could solve that problem, you'd be golden. The complexity of your art with a really simple focal point would be great. Edit: this is already great as an illustration, I'm blown away by your style.

I don't understand this rejection at all.... What can't be pulled off?
Orders of magnitude better than your other entry which is IMHO utter garbage.
inirini wrote:I agree, it would look a lot better if it was resized smaller. What pantone did you use for this shirt? As to clear up the confusion. :]
I feel like things always print a little smaller than the artists show them on the shirt. Maybe it's just me. But for that reason, and because it shows up better in the comp, and mostly because I like it that way, I always show things a bit large. The orange was Pantone 7417, like woot says to use, and it magically turned to red when I saved it as a jpg. If you know why let me know so it doesn't happen again. Pretty annoying when it does that.
dijin wrote:This is a great design. It deserves to be higher up!
thanks, looks like I'm destined for one of those middle-of-the-pack designs again. Maybe I need to try these at DBH or threadless...
really really like the floating islands.

Re: McSteamy Banana
This is awesome man...not sure why it appeals to me so much, but it really does! Got my vote earlier today, but didn't have time to comment
So, I'm sitting here at work looking at shirts, and I see this one and I'm like "hey, this shirt's awesome" and I call my coworkers over to look at it, and they're like "yeah, that shirt's awesome", and then only after everyone's come and gawked did I realize it was yours. Good show, old bean.

Ah, I see. I did ask, when the derby was announced but before it opened, what the rule was on resubmitting designs, and, helpfully, nobody responded.

Um K... you can't do that, regardless if it was rejected or not, woot has the rights to the design for 60 days. You've been around here long enough to know that.
Excellent job Robbie. I really like the smoke textures.
"This is really, really clever, but Idon't think we can pull it off.]\\\\" What does that mean exactly? Please explain better, because we don't know if you are saying too close to actual gameboy or artwork not printable.

I've been a fan of Hawaii five-0 since it aired in 2010. Great acting, witty conversations, excellent story all rolled into one great series. If you like a police series that is that little different than all the others tune in to Hawaii five -0! Read more Review posted on Friday, December 20th 2013 at 2:25 am |

I always find that remakes don't seem to go well in ratings. H50 was on top of my list of new shows to watch for 2010 since I'm a huge fan of Daniel Dae Kim's since his days on Angel. I was told why would you want to watch the new H50 so I gave it a few months after it premiered and watched the pilot and instantly fell in love with it. As a female it's strange that people don't like action packed movies or shows I do because it gets me hooked and this is how I got hooked on the show within the first 10 minutes due to the action and the wonderful hilarious carguments between Steve & Danno.

Best hand cream - 2/15/2015 11:09:43 AM Received as a Christmas a year ago and have since purchased it as gifts for family and friends. They love it!!Smells like buttercream indeed! - 12/13/2014 3:22:41 PM I confirm it really does smell like buttery vanilly cake frosting! The scent evolves into pound cake (minus the citrus) and at the end of the day, into cookies, according to my husband :) The texture is quite thick and may leave a slight white cast if not massaged throughly. That doesn't bother me because I have dry skin and I like "blanket" cosmetics for winter. My snake-scaled legs feel hydrated and nourished hours after applying that cream. Nice cosy body treat for colder time!Smells wonderful - 11/30/2014 12:59:04 PM I've been trying different masks, seeing which ones work the best for my skin. Of the many I've tried, FarmHouse Fresh Sundae is one of the best. Its smooth, creamy and is very hydrating. And yes, it really does smell like a chocolate sundae, which is a big plus.Doesn't mix well - 11/30/2014 12:51:49 PM I like the fragrance and the way my skin feels after using this, however it doesn't mix well.Pedicure in a jar - 11/24/2014 5:01:06 AM This is wonderful for your feet. My nail tech accused me of going to someone else for a pedicure because my feet were soooo smooth. It is wonderful maintenance between pedicures and the aromatherapy it provides is fantastic.Love the packaging in glass bottle w pump. - 11/20/2014 12:08:40 PM Smells lovely, not too overpowering, feels great, silky, and absorbs quickly. I have the Hello Yellow Shea Butter Cream Whip pump in all of my washrooms/ baths. My guests love it! Definitely a staple around here, we never go without.Excellent product - 11/18/2014 5:47:11 PM This is an excellent mask. It was very easy to apply and came off easily. I was very pleased with how smooth my skin was afterward. I am an esthetician and would use this on my clients. It is a great enzyme mask.This has been my go-to oil for over a year 5 Stars - 11/2/2014 6:56:17 PM I read the reviewer who said the scent is overpowering, and long-lasting, was going back to her almond oil. I am sorry she had that opinion, but want to reinforce that in my experience, and having given this as a gift to over 8 women, from age 17 to 50, all of them love this, and asked where to buy more. I am a premium beauty customer and I will not buy cheap products. I discovered FarmHouse Fresh Agave Nectar Oil at both of my day spas and it was even at my hair designers' inside a five diamond hotel, spa, salon resort. Two pumps and I was hooked. This is IT and you won't be disappointed. The scent is very pretty, light, and not at ALL overpowering. My massage therapist tried it at my request and he gave it high praise, and bought a dozen for his sports & accident massage therapy business. This feels so good going on dry skin and I love it after shower on wet skin... it seals in the moisture after bath, or shower and you feel soft, and look so radiant all day. This does not stain clothes, sheets like other body oils and it really does make your skin look, and feel 10 years younger. I have used this on my face and it gives your skin a dewy, soft, luscious complexion. Perfect for all skin types especially sensitive skin, like mine. This is my #1 body & hand oil. I have these in all three washrooms in my home, next to my bed, and in my travel beauty trunk.Truly erases crows feet, Miraculous! Not sticky! - 10/10/2014 12:16:18 PM I am a loyal FarmHouse Fresh beauty & spa customer. I also use Dior, Estee, Algernist, Lancome, and other expensive beauty products. Wow~ this is a force to be reckoned with. When I read you will need a new drivers' license photo after a couple of weeks, I laughed. You know what? They mean it! This is true. I took some iPhoto selfies without makeup before using FHF Crow Catcher Serum. I compared them to now, about 20 days after using this product religiously. There I AM! Sans the smile lines, and tiny crows feet lines. They are gone. This is amazing. You WILL look younger, and prettier. Thank you FarmHouse Fresh & Skin Store. I love your site.I have very sensitive skin and this is THE BEST! - 7/5/2014 9:05:10 AM This is magic in a jar. Glass jar with a metal lid not the cheap plastic rubbish they try to sell facial products in. This One Fine Day Shea Sugar Flawless Face Polisher is just that.. Polishes your skin, gently removes your blackheads, white heads, and leaves your face looking flawless, clean & strips the bacteria/ grime clogging pores. This is SO helpful if you have a T Zone that gets clogged up. LOVE this and I cannot live without it! Paraben/ Sulfate FREE Gently exfoliates while Moisturizing your skin~ This is heavenly! Yes, I am one of the women who has always had to worry about VERY sensitive skin, and breaking out all over my face, neck, body if I even use the wrong laundry detergent, or body lotion, I break out if I use anything my skin finds offensive. So this can be trusted for you hesitant sensitive skin customers. This is SO pure, exfoliates, and moisturizes at the same time w the shea butter and other natural ingredients. This is also Paraben & Sulfate Free! Because I would try new products, and pay dearly with a face breakout, I was obviously reluctant to try new things. I finally found out by trial and error that some of my breakouts were NOT from my Sephora makeup, facial serum samples, but my new TOOTHPASTE. Can you believe that? How obvious in retrospect... you brush and the breakouts are around your mouth, lips, under your mouth on your chin, so be aware of your toothpaste if you are battling breakouts. This is my ONLY go-to trusted facial polisher and it does the job without leaving skin feeling dry, taut, tight, stripped of natural oils, FarmHouse Fresh is my FAVORITE brand. I discovered it at my day spa in Indian Wells, California, Hyatt Regency. I spa hop around the world and this FHF brand appealed to me because it is not in cheap, plastic, unsightly bottles, but glass jars, with meal lids, caps. This is such a great brand and they stand behind their product line. I LOVE all things FarmHouse Fresh and I have had two returns, one was broken damaged during shipment, and the other was their shea butter Hello Yellow cream that had exploded during shipment due to the triple-digit heat where we live. FHF promptly replaced my items, no questions asked, apologized for the delivery error and they truly care about their customers' satisfaction. This smells SO lovely, very pleasant and a little goes a LONG way. I have NO breakouts, no blemishes when I stick to using this once a day in winter, fall and spring, and twice a day during out hot 110- 120 degree, sweaty Summer Heatwave days, my face looks gorgeous, flawless and I do not even need to wear makeup, foundation, concealer. This is 98.5% NATURAL and how many skin care lines can assure us of that? LOVE IT. I cannot live without it and I strongly endorse this. 6 fl. ounces and this lasts depending on your use, 2 months. I buy 5 at a time and I strongly endorse SkinStore.Com for all of my FarmHouseFresh products. Why pay Day Spa markup? Cheers! ~ S -

Why do you even look at karmic right now? It has been 13 days since the release of 9.04. You can not expect anything from it yet.
Phoronix: Ubuntu Intel Performance Still In Bad Shape
We began talking about Intel graphics regressions in Ubuntu 9.04 back in January but for the most part that went under the radar at Canonical up until Ubuntu 9.04 was nearing release. At that point it was then explored whether greedy migration heuristics improved performance as the UXA acceleration architecture was still too problematic to enable by default. We had found that using some of the latest kernel code had improved the performance some, but still there were major regressions within Intel's new Linux driver stack.
Why do you even look at karmic right now? It has been 13 days since the release of 9.04. You can not expect anything from it yet.
I've noticed some more serious regressions on Fedora, affecting intel 915gm and 945gm chipsets. The release of fedora 11 will mark one year since these problems occurred.
It's only obvious Ubuntu will suffer from them as well.
I'm thinking Intel might be backing porting the DRI drivers over to Gallium3D.
Fedora recently built:
With those levels, kernel mode setting and UXA are very stable (on my G45/X4500HD), and performance is good. Compiz still has some issues, but stability is improving quickly at this point.
The opengl problem started happening with mesa master (7.6) around 5/5 and there were no problems running any of those on 5/4, you just happened to catch a transient bug when you decided to benchmark Such is the life of daily builds though Of course karmic's linux-libc-dev is broken right now and most packages wont build to update and see if it's fixed. If anything I would recommend benchmarking jaunty's UXA (instead of EXA that you used) vs karmic's UXA with xorg-edgers drivers though to see actual performance increase/decreases, perhaps even using mesa 7.5 in edger's jaunty section instead of 7.6 so all tests can be run. UXA in general has a big performance hit on all of my GMA950 hardware.. I don't game on intel GMA though so thats the least of my worries.. UXA only just stabilized enough to be used full time on my 945GME aspire one on may 2nd.
I've come to expect shoddy reporting on this site. The articles are just an excuse to link to your own content. Most of the sentences don't even make sense because you're trying to link every story that you've ever written about a topic. There's no discussion of what's actually happening. There are a few "paragraphs" at the beginning of the article, which are mostly included for linking.
Then there's the ubiquitous graphs throughout that just take up space. Honestly, just say, "performance regressed 13% on test X from 9.04 to 9.10." I'm perfectly capable of reading. My favorite part is the explanation of some of the graphs. After a graph that reads 1329.31 for 9.04 and 906.15 for 9.10, we get some fabulous insight: "The lines composition performance had regressed." Or how about this: "The performance with the transformed blit bilinear operation was nearly the same." If you take out the test name (and associated grammatical necessities it introduces, which is six words), the explanation is a whopping six words, of which none are insightful.
Who is the target the audience? If its new users to the site (who presumably wouldn't know much about Linux graphics benchmarks) then why the dependence on graphs that don't make much sense? What's a JXRenderMark?? If the audience is experienced users who visit the site, why the constant re-hashing of everything you've ever done on the topic? People who read the site at all know about these regressions, and there's no need to link to 16 Phoronix articles (vs. two non-Phoronix articles). I understand a section at the end for further reading, but there's no reason it needs to take up article space. I guess it makes sense when you realize that the article is 623 words, of which 63 are hyperlinked text. I wish I could insert a graph... but I'll also tell you that it's just over 10% of the words, which is one in 10.
I think that this one really takes it to a new low; as another poster pointed out, it's been two weeks since 9.04 was released. Combine that with an inflammatory headline, and there is no value in this "article."
Phoronix has really gone overboard with its test suite. Who cares about this stuff? There's nothing here that matters to anyone. Even if performance has regressed, which is presumably important to (future) users, there's no discussion about why it has or what can be done to minimize it. Any system in a computer is extraordinarily complex, especially something like graphics that is integrated at so many parts; yet, there's no technical information. No code analysis. No quotes or views from developers. There really isn't anything but a couple pages of graphs with painfully obvious commentary.
I understand this is going to piss a lot of people off, but there's no denying its true.
This is over the line, but I simply can't resist. James Downey (from Billy Madison) said, "what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."
I've been reading this site for probably about 1.5 years. This article is not unique; I usually bite my tongue and don't say anything; I don't like to mean to people and ridicule them, but at some point, it's just too much. This post is very negative, and I'm not going to apologize for that. Maybe it's a little too blunt, but we're all adults. That being said, there is some decent stuff on this site. I just wish that there wasn't such an effort to constantly publish articles, even when there's nothing to report.
As an ending note, I thought that it would be humorous to point out the length of this post: 670 words.
Well said.

Plane ticket: the easiest solution to cold hands
I always got my gloves boots and socks at dive shops. I loves mittens. claws always left my index finger lonely and cold. The socks make a big difference in ease of putting on the wet suit. Before the socks I'd use plastic newspaper bags under my boots. When I first winter surfed, I had multiple cotton socks, plastic bags, then duct taped it.

NHIAA Tennis: Bedford is championship-focused
After completing a rain-delayed match with Exeter this week, the Bulldogs are undefeated once again, owners of a 14-0 record entering the postseason, their first in Division I after winning the last three Division II (formerly Class I) titles.
The coaches cite the intense work ethic of their players. The players point to the coaches who keep them focused when so much success could make them complacent.
The Bulldogs are led by Shawna Morley, Bedford's head coach since 2008 and before that the head coach at Manchester West, with whom she won a state title in 2005.
Morley says her players' commitment includes extra work outside of practices, setting up their own matches against each other to work on their skills, and playing in the offseason.
"I think it's all the kids," he said. "They work very, very hard."
Bedford's senior captains, James Delahunty and McKinley Grimes, credit their coaches for keeping them focused and in control of their game.
A glance at the Bulldogs' match-by-match results may give the impression the team has had it easy this season. Nine of its victories have been by shutout, four others by a score of 8-1. The only relatively close victory came against Londonderry, by a 6-3 score on May 10.
And that's a good thing, the Bulldogs believe. Complacency would be a danger if winning started feeling automatic.
All six Bedford seniors will soon be off to college, where most plan to continue their tennis careers.
But graduation doesn't necessarily end involvement in Bedford tennis. Morley says former players, including Myles Utell, often come back to help tutor players.
Several other schools are relishing the chance to put a wrench in Bedford's pursuit of a fourth straight boys' tennis title, and Morley, as always, is keeping the Bulldogs focused.
Needless to say, Bedford is among the five, as well.

I'm 5'3, 130 lbs, and I have hips. I got a medium in heather grey and I love it! It's super warm and comfy. The coat can easily be dressed up or down. Great deal!
I really liked this coat but was worried about its size. I hadn't bought a peacoat in 6 years and it still fits well. I bought a medium (size of my Old Navy peacoat) , but the size of the model had me thinking maybe I should go large. When the coat came, it fit kinda snug (in other words no layers or sweaters) but I looked great. I decided to buy a large and keep the medium until the new one came. Well, the large is better in that I can wear layers but it doesn't give me the silhouette of the medium and I just don't look right from the waist down. I look like a person who lost a lot of weight and still wearing their too large clothes. I'll be returning both. For reference, I'm 5'4", with a muscular build, 36" bust, 29" waist and 39" hips. It does seem like it would be warm in colder weather. Their sizes seem modeled off, well models and then the large was given more room in the waist area than was needed.
Bought an xsmall for my niece who is 5' and 100 lbs. Sleeves are long of course but rest of coat fits well with room for a medium sweater. This runs true to size for Miss Sixty coats. I usually wear size 4 in most brands. I have at least 6 coats by Miss Sixty and all are size small. They all fit well but some styles are more fitted than others. To get a better idea of fit, I tried on this coat before giving it to my niece and the xsmall was tight but I fit into it and was able to button it up. This coat runs true to size, especially for this brand. Hope this helps. ;)
Really awesome coat!!!! Bought the Heather Grey color. Fits perfect I'm 5'2" 114lbs, 34 bust, 26 waist, 36 hips I got the XS and there's still room for a sweater. It tapers in very nicely at the waist for a great silhouette. Love the pleats in the back. It's heavy so keeps me warm but it's not too bulky which is great. My first purchase from Overstock, they shipped promptly and the packaging was nice. Very satisfied customer!!
Bought this for my daughter. She loved it. Great quality, great fit.
I love this coat, very nice, received so many compliments
Super nice coat!! Good quality and very warm for the winter.
A lovely formal coat I like the zip and sparkle of it Fits great and can be worn formally too Only setback might be the buttons that are not sewed on too strongly I have to sew them on stronger
I LOVE this jacket. I would buy it in multiple colors if it was available.

the ring is smaller then the pic.....but it is still my wedding ring
Brilliant ring! She opened the box and gasped. Such a great price for such an incredibly beautiful ring.
It has been a month since I purchased it. My fiancee loves it, she was really surprised and amazed with the blue diamond. Still today she looks at it in awe.
The blue diamond was a rich,sparkly blue, and the white ones are so pretty and sparkly.The band is kind of unique and the style is just what I was looking for. It's not large stones but it's perfect for me. I couldn't be happier !

Great to see so much progress in such a short timeframe! However, it's really overdue to see some actual progress.
Phoronix: AMD R600g HyperZ Support Is Now In Better Shape
It was just days ago that the R300 Gallium3D driver got HyperZ support fixed-up and was finally enabled by default for bettering the OpenGL gaming performance with the open-source Linux graphics driver. Now it looks like the newer R600g driver is getting into shape for properly handling ATI/AMD HyperZ...
Great to see so much progress in such a short timeframe! However, it's really overdue to see some actual progress.
great news indeed :-) Kudos for Jerome for the work, but I still wonder would it work on my Evergreen as it says that it is disabling part/whole thing(?) on those chipsets

Where to get this required kernel patch Jerome speaks about here http://lists.freedesktop.org/archive...er/031597.html ?
Last edited by ryszardzonk; 12-14-2012 at 05:25 AM.
This one maybe? http://www.spinics.net/lists/dri-devel/msg31782.html
This should have been done years ago...
Great to hear there is further progress on HyperZ on R600g.
Out of interest: IIRC, initially there were major issues (GPU lock ups?),
although the CS had been perfectly in line with the GPU programming docs.
Can anyone explain the situation in a few words (and how it got solved finally)?
yes it seems to be it. Thanks! BTW kernel 3.7 is to old for that One needs to apply it to git version for now
it required reworking part of the driver to resemble that of the catalyst driver, but even the patch author do not remember the whole story
v2-v4: history lost somewhere in outer space
Thank you guys!

The Wireless-N Internet Home Monitoring Camera is designed to send live video to your home computers, or through the Internet to a web browser or smartphone anywhere in the world! This compact, self-contained unit lets you keep track of your home, your kids, your workplace -- whatever's important to you.
Unlike standard "web cams" that require an attached PC, the Internet Home Monitoring Camera contains its own web server, so it can connect directly to a network, over either Wireless-N or wired Ethernet. High-quality, high-framerate video compression creates a sharp, up to 640x480, video stream. View the real-time feed on your networked computers at home, on the Web, or on your web or RTSP-enabled smartphone when you're on the go.
Perfect for keeping an eye on family, property, or anything important to you. The wireless connectivity and compact design makes for easy placement (mounted on a wall, or use the included desktop stand), so you can enjoy the peace of mind of reliable vigilance.
In Security Mode, the camera sends an email with a short video attached to up to three recipients whenever it detects motion in its field of view. You can then log onto the live video stream if the situation warrants. Use the included Viewer & Recorder utility to record the audio/video stream from multiple cameras to your local hard drive or shared network drive, "live," or on a predetermined schedule. The camera can also record directly to a compatible NAS device.
You can keep your video stream secure and private within your home network, or share it by creating password-protected accounts. Or simply stream your broadcast to the web for the world to see.
