What do you put in your chicken stock to make the most flavorful soup?
I use chicken wings or legs in the crockpot with an onion, celery, carrot, bay leaf and about 10 peppercorns with 6 cups of water in the crock pot overnight. Strain and use that stock as the most flavorful soup.

I am making poblano Chciken chowder for dinner and need some advice. The recipe calls for chopping the peppers and tossing them in the stock. Should I roast them first, or just do what the recipe says. My thinking is roasting them first, what do my fellow chows think?

Gluten free flour used for gravy?
Where do buy this?
Gluten free flour used for gravy?
My grand daughter has issues with dairy and gluten. She is coming to join us for dinner tomorrow. I am making a simple roast beef. On to the question. I bought some Betty Crocker gluten free flour and was wondering if I could use this for thickening the gravy? I have never made gravy with cornstarch before. I like the results of the regular flour. Can someone help me on this topic? Thanks Chowhounds!
Rust on my stainless steel Messermeister kitchen shears???
Spatchcocked a chciken yesterday and put the shears in the dishwasher like always. They came out with rust! What's up with that? Here's a pic. What dot do? Steel wool?
Hope this isn't requested to death, but need some ideas for BBQ side dishes for memorial day
Here is what I am taking.
Confetti Rice and Bean Salad
Note: I used a wild rice/brown rice blend for my salad, but Basmati rice is delicious, also. Whatever rice you decide to use, cook it according to package directions and use it in the recipe – you should be good to go!
In a large bowl, combine all of the salad ingredients and toss.

Cooked chicken with gravy or turkey with gravy freeze well, just give him a biscuit with it. Stuffing is another thing that freezes well. Doesn't have to Thanksgiving for that!

Cooking advice for make ahead meals
Went thru the same thing with my parents. Meatloaf and lasagna freeze wll. Made them in foul pans, thaw, bake and serve in one pan. Chicken noodle casserole and chili work well too. So does a tuna noodle casserole too. I even emailed Cambells soup company and asked for help with recipes. They sent me coupons and recipes. I don't use the creamed soups for myself, but they do work well in casseroles and do freeze well. Good old Tater Tot Casserole would be good too.

Advice needed for heating up Spaghetti Carbonara.
I took everyone's suggestions, but mostly yours. I put it in a glass bowl with a tight lid and set the bowl in some hot tap water. Then I got about 1/2 cup of very starchy water and put that in a non stick pan and low and slow, heated it up. Added a little more cheese, salt and pepper. Eating it now. Not as silky as the other night, but worthy of another meal. Thank you everyone for all your help. Love all you Chowhounders!

I like the flax seed oil, left it so slick! Nothing sticks.
I used to look for the Griswold or Wagner name on the bottom. But after talking to a dealer/collector at a flea market, he said most old pans are made by Wagner or Griswold, but they didn't put names on all of them, to sell them cheaper. He told me to look for the smooth inside. Sign of a well used pan. And to follow this method of seasoning.

I bought Caphalon tri ply years ago and love it. Got it at Bed, Bath &Beyond and they let me use the 20% off coupon. You might want to look at the Emeril line of cookware, it is made by All-Clad. As for non stick, I use cast iron. Love that too.

Need some cast iron reseasoning advice.
How do I get this sticky mess off the pan?
Need some cast iron reseasoning advice.
I have been cooking with cast iron for about a year and love it. But after making stroganoff last night in my big CI skillet, I noticed the burger was sticking pretty bad so after I cleaned it up I decided to bake some more oil into the pan. I swiped some canola oil in, laid it face down in the oven and baked it at 350 for about 2 hours. What came out was a sticky mess! What do I do now. I do not have a self cleaning oven any longer, I got one low temp steam model. I do have a Weber gas grill outside, however I live in MN, very cold out and I don't know if I can maintain the heat to clean this pan. Help me please! Thanks.

Need some help with popping popcorn.
I purchased a new gas stove with the 17000BTU front burners. My old gas stove had the regular burners. My old aluminum popcorn popper, circa 1960(?) has always worked well on the old stove. My DH is the official popper and insisted on using the front power burner. The popcorn is coming out tough and some are partially popped. I have told him to use the gentle back burner, but he won't. Is there a scientific way to pop corn? I use white kernels only, like the taste. But want my tender popcorn back. We need an education in how to pop popcorn... Help!

Filed under: food, free stuff!, reading
Thanks again to everyone at Pattycake Bakery for being such sweet storytime hosts this Saturday. I accidentally scheduled the reading during the same time as the Ohio State/Michigan home game, (for those who aren't familiar, this is a huge football rivalry that glues most Ohioans to their televisions and makes for treacherous traffic in Columbus), so thanks to those who un-glued themselves and came out! We had a fun time reading and eating cookies.
Another 'thank you' goes out to everyone who sent in Thanksgiving Ingvar photos. One entrant was selected, names-out-of-a-hat-style (except I used a cup instead), and the lucky winner of these little cuties is RACHEL! Rachel celebrated Thanksgiving with roasted veggies, kale, lentils, rice, cranberry salad, and vegan pumpkin pie!
Honorable mention goes to my friends Kaitlin and Dallas, who made this delicious root bake with the help of many Ingvars. You know I love me some roots!
More to come soon!

Smart Gilas Pilipinas five takes on Taiwanese
WUHAN, China—Chinese Taipei is exceptionally good on its home court and Philippine five coach Rajko Toroman hopes that it stays that way.
Tangling in a neutral venue this time, Smart Gilas Pilipinas tries to hurdle Chinese Taipei for the fifth straight time tonight and reach the semifinals of the Fiba Asia Championship semifinals for the first time since 1987.
The Filipinos have beaten the Taiwanese in their last four meetings, three of them in Taipei during the William Jones Cup.
"I understand, they play much better at home," said Toroman after the Nationals finished second in Group F with a 75-52 demolition of Syria. "They are specially confident when they play in the Jones Cup."
If the Filipinos get past the Taiwanese, they will face the winner between defending champion Iran and Jordan in the semifinals.
The other quarterfinal pairings pit South Korea against Japan and China versus Lebanon.
Chinese Taipei, which wound up third in Group E behind Iran and South Korea, shot below 42 percent in six games, including a miserable 21 percent against the Iranians.
Smart Gilas has fared much better, hitting its shots at 55 percent with Marcus Douthit consistently making six of every 10 tries each night.
"At the moment, they (Taiwanese) don't play good," said Toroman. "But if their outside players start shooting the ball well, we'll have a problem."
Center Tseng Wen-ting and power forward Wu Tai-hao control the boards for Chinese Taipei while Lin Chih-chieh, Chang Tsung-hsien and Chen Hsin-an are capable of exploding on any given night.
The challenge for the Taiwanese in the do-or-die matchup of this Olympic qualifier is how to keep up with Douthit's strength and length in the paint along with either Kelly Williams or Ranidel De Ocampo.
Toroman will again put premium on the defense that shut down Japan's Takuya Kawamura and power forward Kosuke Takeuchi, as well as the free-wheeling style of the Syrians.
"This is the reason why I'm optimistic," said Toroman. "We did a great job on [Japan and Syria] defensively and we'll try to do it again against Chinese Taipei."
The 6-foot-10 Douthit averaged 18.6 points and 10.5 rebounds in six games, including a monstrous 25-point, 18-rebound, three-block, three, 3-assist performance against Japan.
Marcio Lassiter, who normed 21.5 points against Jordan and Japan, is the team's next reliable offensive contributor with 11.3 points after three games.
"Without a good, big guy like Marcus, we'll never do good in the tournament because we're small," said Toroman. "He has a big impact on the team.
"Marcus is very skilled offensively. He's very clever and creative for his size while our outside players have been aggressive throughout."
The national team last made it to the semifinals of the Asian Championship in 1987 in Bangkok when the tournament was still known as the Asian Basketball Confederation championship, a year after the Northern Consolidated Corp.-backed PH five won it.

There is a variety overload in terms of gameplay; with fundamental 2D gameplay enhanced by the context sensitive magic scheme, a horribly addictive DDR-esque section, 6 fun and quirky mini-games and taking care of your own virtual pet Nintendogs style, not to mention multiplayer mode and a bevy of extras to come back for.
The lack of RPG depth is a disappointment, but the titles are solid additions to the Harry Potter gaming world. [Jan 2006, p.107]
And a note: there's no reason to pay an extra $5 for the DS version when the GBA version's only lacking repetitive mini-games.

Judge blocks state handgun ammunition law
Fresno jurist says statute was "unconstitutionally vague"
A Fresno County Superior Court judge has blocked a pending state law that would have required Californians to provide a thumbprint and photo identification when buying handgun ammunition.
Judge Jeffrey Hamilton ruled from the bench late Tuesday that the law scheduled to go into effect Feb. 1 was "unconstitutionally vague."
Gun-rights groups had argued that some types of ammunition can be used in both handguns and rifles, making enforcement and compliance a challenge.
One of those making that case is Marc Halcon, owner of the American Shooting Center in San Diego.
"When legislation is passed that doesn't give clear guidance, you are making it much more difficult to make heads or tails of it," said Halcon, who is also president of the California Association of Firearms.
The ruling frustrated state Sen. Kevin de Leon, a Los Angeles Democrat and author of the law.
"This Republican judge decided his personal ideology was more important than the safety of kids and police officers," de Leon said in an interview Wednesday.
Using the judge's reasoning, de Leon continued, a separate law banning the sale of "cop-killer" bullets that can penetrate body armor should also be tossed.
At issue is language in the law that bars sales of ammunition "principally for use" in handguns without a thumbprint and ID.
The law's objective, de Leon said, was to aid investigations and potentially prevent crime by making it easier for police to track criminals already barred from owning handguns who buy ammunition.
The ruling comes from a judge generally considered conservative. An appeal is likely, although new Attorney General Kamala Harris has not made a final determination.
"We will decide in the next few days," said Jim Finefrock, her spokesman.
Harris is a Democrat and former San Francisco district attorney with a reputation for supporting tighter gun control. Gov. Jerry Brown, when he was the state's attorney general, defended the law.
Gun-rights advocates hailed the judge's decision.
"It's good news for the state," said Halcon, fearing customers would just buy ammunition elsewhere. "Had the ruling gone the other way you would have seen another decrease in tax revenue for the state which we cannot afford right now."
Then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed de Leon's Assembly Bill 962 in 2009, but implementation was purposely delayed to give dealers and law enforcement time to adapt.
If implemented, the law would have imposed the strictest handgun ammunition purchase regulations of all states.
It also would have required Californians buying handgun ammunition over the Internet or by mail order to have it shipped to a licensed vendor. There, buyers would still have to provide the thumbprint, ID and other information.
Dealers would have had to keep those records on who buys the ammunition, how much and which type for five years. Also ammunition must be stored in areas only accessible to employees,
Violations were to be treated as misdemeanors, punishable by up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine.
California law mandates background checks and a 10-day waiting period for those buying handguns, among other restrictions. But there are no restraints on handgun ammunition sales.

You can certainly go with a larger size, but I can't see a point to it. The SK-75 has roughly the same stretch as wire, and while there is some misconception on the Internet about this, there is no appreciable creep in dyneema line when used for halyards. Creep is measured over the course of years, not hours or even days, and takes significant (as a percentage of breaking strength) long term load to even be an issue.
The major issue people see with stretch in dyneema lines is actually their sails stretching, or the line slipping through clutches (this is why the covers are so important), not actual elongation of the line itself.
You're absolutely right. I tend to over-do things like this. 1/4" would be fine and a lot cheaper. The price on Amsteel has really gone up. I don't remember paying nearly as much a couple of years ago when I did the lifelines.

I have been knitting since my latter teen years. I knitted for my two daughters since they were small. If I couldn't get a pattern to come out like it was suppose to I would modify it. I ended up with some originals, but I couldn't knit it again in the same way. I never knitted for my two sons, but some of their children now have items that I made them. I am in my 60's and enjoy seeing the younger women knitting for their friends and families.

Braking Point Recovery Center, Austintown, Ohio
Complete Pest Solutions, Youngstown, Ohio
The Public Library of Youngstown and Mahoning County, Youngstown, Ohio
By Ed Runyan
In a town that has encouraged citizens to help police by serving as an extra set of eyes and ears, did a downtown resident go too far by slapping handcuffs on a woman he says tried to rob him?
Law Director Greg Hicks says he probably did — not because he did anything wrong, but because of the potential harm he could have brought upon himself.
"A phone call and an accurate description might have been a better idea," Hicks said of Aaron Chine, 31, who made a citizen's arrest at 8:18 p.m. Sunday in the alley beside Comfort Inn on Courthouse Square.
Chine decided about a week ago to begin to patrol the area around his home on Courthouse Square because of the amount of vagrancy and crime in the downtown area.
He was on such a patrol Sunday when Laura K. Hall, 47, of Laird Avenue, approached Chine asking for money. Chine told her no, he says. But Hall persisted, saying she would "pull out her knife and cut him," according to a police report.
Chine put his handcuffs on Hall and called police, who took her into custody. Prosecutors later charged Hall with felony "attempt to commit an offense." A municipal court judged ordered that Hall be held in the county jail without eligibility to make bond.
Hicks said that when he talks to the participants in Warren's Citizens Police Academy — citizens who receive training from police officers on how to help police do their job — he always stresses that the public plays an important role in preventing crime, but they should avoid getting into an altercation.
"Their mere presence is a deterrent to crime ... but I don't want to see someone get hurt," Hicks said.
In the case of Hall, she threatened to use a knife — and getting slashed across the neck with a razor could kill a person, Hicks noted.
Another danger to someone such as Chine is that he might get sued, Hicks said.
Police officers go through hundreds of hours of training to learn how to handle crime suspects, and they still get sued.
Chine knew enough to use his handcuffs on Hall only after she allegedly committed a felony offense, Hicks said, but how many citizens know what elements of a crime make them a felony or misdemeanor?
If she'd only said, "I'll beat you up," that might have been only a misdemeanor offense, and a citizen would have no grounds to restrain someone for such a thing, Hicks said.
Further, criminals sometimes claim to have suffered an injury in the course of a struggle with police. Police departments have insurance for that, but a citizen doesn't, Hicks added.
Chine, for his part, says never planned to use handcuffs, saying they were for a "worse-case scenario" only.
"I'm not out there trying to clean up the streets by myself," Chine said.
But a couple of weeks ago, he became concerned about the downtown area he loves. He found that he and his girlfriend couldn't walk a short distance down the sidewalk at night without being approached several times by people wanting money.
Then, a couple of businesses downtown were robbed.
"How tired of this stuff do we have to be before we do something?" Chine asked.
He has lived downtown for four years, and he says the number of people sleeping in Courthouse Park and bothering people downtown has increased significantly.
"I love it," he said of living downtown, "but it's getting harder to enjoy it."
Maybe this is what needs to hapen since people shoot each other like we are in the "Old West". By the time citizens call 911 the offenders are long gone and off to commit another crime. Constuctor, would you shoot a woman who claims they would pull out a knife and slash you? Better think twice on that one.
Or maybe Warren could take a page from Youngstown's book and clean up their downtown. You don't see people hassled in downtown Youngstown. Warren's courthouse square is crawling with bums.
fess, if she made him fear for his life, he could legally shoot her. Her family would probably see dollar signs and go after him in civil cour,though.
Had he called the police and gave an accurate description they wouldn't have done a thing. I've lived in Warren for 8 years..here's a couple of examples of our police NOT doing their job. When I was a full time student and working full time 4 years ago I lived in a seedy part of town. My car was stolen out of my driveway, I didn't know til I got a call from WPD around 7 am. Officer Chris O'Rourke arrives at my house to take me to get it, accuses me of "probably trading it for crack" then it gets better when we get to the car he says you look like your under the influence and you have to leave your car here, when I told him he can give me a sobriety test he refused THEN charged me with failure to comply and tows the car. He takes me downtown gives me the citation and tells me to walk home. I went and took a drug test that day at CCC downtown to prove I was sober. Still cost me $1200 for a lawyer + $220 for the tow + $10 for the drug test + 3 court appearances for them to apologize and throw the charges out.
Another example, same seedy neighborhood, my house is hit with gunfire and the bullet goes through the front door and out the side of the house. The officer shows up an HOUR later. Then asks are you okay, tell him yes and he says if you want a police report you can come down to the station in a couple of days.
I have a lot more stories but you get the point, citizens have to monitor bc the police don't do squat.
Boondock is right, the WPD is a joke. I once called 911 to report a SEVER drunk driver on 422, and while I was on the phone with them the operator asked me to try and keep an eye on the car so until the officer could get there. The drunk ran a red light, so I followed him, and when the cop got there, I also got a ticket because I'm not an "emergency" vehicle. It took literally 2 minutes from the time I called to the time the police hunted us down and got him, only 2 minutes. Yet, when I once called the police because there were gun shots by my apartment, it took them 45 minutes to get there. Maybe because it is more beneficial for the City and the officer's quota to nail a dui then it is to arrest a gunshot crime. And don't you even THINK about dodging any pot holes in Warren, because your getting stopped with suspition of DUI every time. I'm glad this guy did what he did. It's getting ridiculous to even go to the Get Go on Mahoning Ave. without getting somebody telling you they "left their wallet at the office, and need money to get a ride back to the office". Meanwhile they look like they havn't taken a bath in 2 months, what office you work at bro?

Guys like Greg Little who drop the ball yet do a dance while we're 0-3? I would sit his ass down and tell him, 'listen my friend, there's no I in team, but there's two I's in "idiot." Get the job done and stop the B.S.'
– Fomer Cleveland Browns head coach Sam Rutigliano, in an interview on 92.3 The Fan, when asked what he would do with wide receiver Greg Little. Little, on Sunday, dropped multiple passes but proceeded to celebrate when converting a first down with the Browns down by 14 points. He was involved with celebratory-based issues with fans just one week earlier.

Black Eyed Pea Hummus . .. .Yes, Please!
~If you're looking for a fresh new way to serve up tried and true Southern ingredients, then this Black Eyed Pea Hummus recipe is for you!
Chef Jennifer Hill Booker, has reinvented traditional Middle Eastern hummus we're used to eating by using such Southern ingredients as black eyed peas, pecans, pecan oil, and apple cider vinegar! Can you say, yes please!
Black Eyed Pea Hummus
original recipe by Chef Jennifer Hill Booker
Yields 5 cups
2-14.5 ounce cans black eyed peas, drained and rinsed
1-14.5 ounce can chick peas, drained and rinsed
4 cloves garlic
1/2 cup pecan oil, I like Oliver Farms Pecan Oil
1/2 cup pecans
1/4-1/4 apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/4 cup chopped pecans
1 tablespoon chopped scallions
Pecan oil
Place all of the ingredients into a food processor with the blade attachment.
Pulse for 2-3 minutes or longer for a smoother hummus.
Adjust taste with salt and pepper and additional vinegar, as needed.
Garnish with chopped pecans, scallions, and a drizzle of pecan oil.
Enjoy with pita chips, crackers, or fresh cut veggies!

Southerners Are Getting Creative With Their Favorite Nut: Pecan
Few dishes showcase Southern tradition more perfectly than a slice of pecan pie, with its dark custard filling and crunchy, nutty topping.
Sweet and buttery, the pecans that figure so prominently in that iconic pie are America's only major indigenous tree nut. They're native to the Deep South, where the long, warm growing season provides an optimal climate. And they're the third-most-popular nut in the U.S. behind peanuts and almonds, according to the Agricultural Marketing Resource Center.
With 10 million pecan trees producing over 200,000 tons of pecans in America today, the nut hardly needs bolstering. But recently, it has become the focus of experiments by Southern farmers, chefs and craft breweries. Inspired in part by the fast-growing farm-to-table movement, which sets a premium on local products, they are giving the pecan new opportunities to shine in the form of cold-pressed oil, gluten-free flour and even beer.
Toasting or roasting brings nut oils to the surface, and pecans are practically overflowing: 75 percent of the nut is pure oil. Compare that with the peanut, which is 50 percent oil, and the almond, which is around 45 percent oil. As with all nuts, roasting not only intensifies the pecan's flavor but also it adds to its richness.
At Oliver Farm, an award-winning producer of artisan oils in Cordele, Ga., Clay Oliver uses an old-fashioned screw press to produce several thousand bottles of delicate pecan oil a year. He sells to Southern chefs, specialty stores around Georgia andonline. "Pecans have that mysterious extra-something and an unforgettable flavor that renders the oil and flour delicious," says Oliver.
Native Georgia chef Steven Satterfield, a James Beard Foundation Award finalist in 2013 and 2014, uses Oliver Farm's oil for everything from frying food to crafting pecan pesto vinaigrette at his Miller Union restaurant in Atlanta. "I love traditional Southern food," he says, "but I want to experiment just enough to keep it fresh and interesting and new."
Oliver Farm's defatted, gluten-free flour has earned such a big following of Southern bakers that it quickly sells out. Dede Wilson's Bakepedia, a baking and dessert recipe website, offers a recipe for pecan flour buttermilk pancakes with an added drizzle of pecan oil. Georgia chef Jennifer Booker, author of Field Peas to Foie Gras: Southern Recipes with a French Accent, uses the pecan oil in traditional southern shrimp and grits, and for sautéeing collard greens.
But perhaps the most surprising new venue for the pecan is a craft beer called Southern Pecan Brown Ale, produced by Lazy Magnolia Brewing Company in Kiln, Miss. Founded by husband-and-wife team Mark and Leslie Henderson, it's the state's first brewery since the Prohibition.
"Our pecan ale is our flagship beer and the first one in the world made with whole roasted pecans," says Leslie Henderson. The beer won a Bronze Medal in the 2006 World Beer Cup and is now available in 17 southern states. "We were initially worried the oils would kill the foam on our beer," says Henderson. "But the pecans ferment just like a grain and provide nuttiness and flavor unmatched in other beers. There's still a lot of hops and malt, but the nutty flavor shines through."
What inspired the beer in the first place? "Comfort foods like pecan pie and pecan pralines give us that old, charming, Deep South romance," Henderson says. "We wanted to hearken back to that hospitality yet create something new. Our beer is complex but really approachable."
Pecan pancakes and beer for breakfast, anyone?

Baby It's Cold Outside! Winter Pumpkin Soup to Warm the Soul!
Winter Pumpkin Soup with Parmesan Croutons & Bacon Chips
Recipe by Chef Jennifer Hill Booker
Serves 4
Any type of winter pumpkin or squash, such as Sugar Pie pumpkin or butternut squash, can be used for this soup. Just remove the seeds, cut it into wedges, drizzle with olive oil, and roast in a 350° F oven. The roasting softens the vegetable and reinforces its natural sweetness. The addition of stock and cream gives the soup a velvety smoothness, and the croutons and bacon chips add a nice crunch.
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 slices of Hickory smoked bacon, cut into 1-inch strips
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1⁄2 medium white onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups roasted pumpkin, mashed, or unsweetened pumpkin puree
2 1⁄2 cups chicken stock
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1⁄2 cup heavy cream
2 cups stale bread, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1⁄4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1⁄4 teaspoon red chili flakes
Freshly ground black pepper
In a large stockpot over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the bacon and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, then add the rosemary and cook an additional 4 to 5 minutes, or until the bacon is golden and crispy and the rosemary leaves are lightly browned.
Drain the bacon and rosemary on a paper towel. Remove the rosemary leaves from the stems and roughly chop the leaves, discarding the stems. Set the rosemary aside. Discard all but 1 tablespoon bacon grease from the stockpot. Set the bacon chips aside while you make the pumpkin soup.
Add the butter, onion, and garlic to the bacon grease in the stockpot and cook over medium-low heat for 15 minutes, or until the onion is translucent. Stir often to loosen any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the mashed pumpkin and the chicken stock, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to low, and cook 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream just before you serve; do not let the soup boil once the cream has been added.
Preheat the oven to 400° F.
To make the parmesan croutons, toss the bread, olive oil, cheese, chili flakes, and black pepper together in a large bowl. Spread the bread mixture onto a sheet pan and bake 5 to 6 minutes, or until the bread cubes are golden brown.
Serve the soup in warm bowls topped with croutons, bacon chips, and the chopped rosemary.

Forget Viagra! Eat a Beet
Now that I have your attention . . . here are 6 Great Health Benefits of Eating Beets!
1. Beets are nature's Viagra
Seriously. One of the first known uses of beets was by the ancient Romans, who used them medicinally as an aphrodisiac. And that's not just urban legend – science backs it up. Beets contain high amounts of boron, which is directly related to the production of human sex hormones.
2. Beets are high in many vitamins and minerals
Potassium, magnesium, fiber, phosphorus, iron; vitamins A, B & C; beta-carotene, beta-cyanine; folic acid. These are but a few of the many nutrients, vitamins and minerals that can be found in beets and beet greens. Beets are particularly beneficial to women whom are pregnant, as the vitamin B and iron are very beneficial to new growth cells during pregnancy and replenishing iron in the woman's body.
3. Beets cleanse the body
They are a wonderful tonic for the liver, works as a purifier for the blood, and can prevent various forms of cancer. Nuff said, right? Tastes good and prevents cancer? Sign me up!
4. Beets help your mental health
Beets contain betaine, the same substance that is used in certain treatments of depression. It also contains trytophan, which relaxes the mind and creates a sense of well-being, similar to chocolate. Beets can also lower your blood pressure. So if you're already steamed about not eating beets, you can get a two-fer by diving into them right away.
5. Beets are used as a stomach acid tester
How in the world does that work? Glad you asked. If you are eating a lot of beets or beet juice, and your pee turns pink, guess what? You have low stomach acid. Pee still clear? Ratchet it up and get juicing (use the greens too)! Nutritionists use beets and beet juice to test stomach acid levels, so stay ahead of the curve by adding beets to your diet now.
6. Beets are a high source of energy
At the same time they are low in calories and high in sugar (although the sugar is released into your system gradually, as opposed to chocolate). Very few foods found in the natural world are as beneficial as beets in this regard.
Beets are a wonderful addition to any dietary need. With their high volume of nutrients, delicious taste, and multitude of uses, anyone can jump right into beets without missing a beat.

Georgia Honey: Nature's Energy Booster
The benefits of honey go beyond its great taste. A great natural source of carbohydrates which provide strength and energy to our bodies, honey is known for its effectiveness in instantly boosting the performance, endurance and reduce muscle fatigue of athletes. Its natural sugars play an important role in preventing fatigue during exercise. The glucose in honey is absorbed by the body quickly and gives an immediate energy boost, while the fructose is absorbed more slowly providing sustained energy. It is known that honey has also been found to keep levels of blood sugar fairly constant compared to other types of sugar.

St. Louis Chapter – History
Hi! I am the founder and director of Miles Against Melanoma. This non-profit organization started in the summer of 2010 as a small organization where I felt this unbelievable need and passion to get skin cancer and melanoma awareness into the community. I have a full time job in marketing but work full force for this organization voluntarily. It is important to me for people to take care of their and their children's skin and to be sun safe!
I had a mole removed from my back 2 years ago and after the way I have treated my freckled, fair skin my whole life, I was very surprised that after waiting an agonizing week, the mole came back benign. My father has had melanoma, my good friend from high school and now I am enmeshed in so many people's lives that are suffering from, survived or have lost a dear angel to this underrated, underexposed illness.
I am so passionate about helping build community relationships and to spread the word that skin cancer is the leading cancer, with more cases than all the other types COMBINED. One person dies every 57 minutes of Melanoma. It is a seemingly underexposed disease that needs more awareness empowering people to honor people they love that are still with us or have left us already. The events are beautiful because these people are finding others in their communities that become fellow friends, advocates and supporters. We are allowing people to raise money for families of cancer victims who are struggling financially or to donate funds to melanoma research. I am still in shock that melanoma is the most underfunded type of cancer there is.

(KTVI)-As summer approaches, we spend more and more time outside in the sunshine. Many of us also think about protecting ourselves from the harsh effects of the sun, from sunburn to skin cancer. One in 50 Americans will develop melanoma in their lifetime. It is the fastest growing and second-most common of all cancers worldwide.
Miles Against Melanoma, based in St. Charles, Missouri, is a national nonprofit organization whose mission is to fight melanoma skin cancer by increasing awareness, supporting patients and their families, and fundraising for research.
Together, We CAN Make a Difference!
It was with great honor that on Monday, 02.24.2014, Miles Against Melanoma St. Louis was able to donate $16,000 our proceeds of our 2013 5K race from June 8, 2013 and our 2nd annual trivia night to Dr. Lynn Cornelius together with the other members of the Melanoma Multidisciplinary team at Siteman Cancer Center, Barnes- Jewish Hospital (BJC – The Richard A Crowder Memorial Research Fund) who has a robust clinical and research program in melanoma.
Skin cancer accounts for nearly half of all cancers in the United States, according to the American Cancer Society. More people are expected to be diagnosed with skin cancer this year than lung cancer, breast cancer, and prostate cancer combined.
Yet, skin cancer hasn't gotten much attention – until now. Read the entire press release here

I bought this pack for my son for summer camp, we have already packed it up and put it on his back to try it out. He hiked around the house a couple of times, and he loves it. From the picture, it looks more like an internal frame pack than an external one, but he says that it is comfortable, but heavy...might have had something to do with the bricks that I through in the pack for conditioning... All-in-all, this is a good looking and functional pack that a 10 year-old won't have any problems with. Great purchase!

CELINA � The man police say sold the drugs that killed a 36-year-old wife and mother has been charged in the case.
A Mercer County Grand Jury on Friday released 11 indictments against Phillip Roy Schmidt, 59, of Celina for his alleged role in the death of Michelle Riley. Schmidt reportedly sold drugs to Riley�s husband, Brett Riley, who then gave them to his wife. An overdose of the drug, a prescription pain patch called Fentanyl, is believed to have caused Michelle Riley�s death, according to Celina Police Chief David Slusser.
Charges include four counts of involuntary manslaughter, two counts of reckless homicide, three counts of corrupting another with drugs, two counts of trafficking in drugs and two counts of illegal possession of drugs. Schmidt was taken into custody on the indictments and is being held in the Mercer County Jail. He is expected to appear before Mercer County Common Pleas Court on Monday.
The Rileys were found unconscious on the floor of the family television room by their 11-year-old son on the night of June 9. Michelle was pronounced dead at the scene. Brett was taken to a hospital in Coldwater where he later regained consciousness. He has since been indicted on two counts of involuntary manslaughter and one count each of reckless homicide, corrupting another with drugs, trafficking and possession of drugs.

Paris Spring 2010: The Definitive Look At Dior
John Galliano's last couture foray for Christian Dior, capturing the atmosphere of a mid-century model cabine with the girls half dressed and their structured brassieres and girdles showing, has had a profound effect on this season's ready-to-wear across the style capitals. Galliano owns the look and tweaked it as a trench-coated hommage to a Philip Marlowe film noir heroine, as played by Betty Bacall or Rita Hayworth. Here a crimson-lipped Lily Donaldson wears his ice-blue organza debutante gown, rendered more spicy than saccharine with its underwear saucily showing through.

Last Friday, after work (and before my fever hit me, of course!), I went shopping for food in Jusco. My original intention was two:
1) To get some snacks for watching the election's results .
2) To stock up some food , just in case something goes wrong, knowing the oppositions are strong this round. Ya, call me paranoid…
I thought I might as well buy something healthier, as I gained 3kg over the CNY!!
Here are the so called 'healthy snacks' I bought for my kids and myself.
