Think Nazi Zombies combined with Left 4 Dead. Subtract the anti-Semitism and the 4, then add a 6, and what do you come up with? Zombies Left 6 Dead. . . basically Killing Floor in a nutshell. Killing Floor is a six player cooperative survival horror game much like Nazi Zombies but with the scope of Left 4 Dead. With the addition of a perk system, and a SDK right out of the box, Killing Floor has all the benefits of a high budget game with a low budget price point.
Killing Floor is all about intense action in a horror setting. You start out as a SWAT type dude with your other SWAT
The perks work like any other type of game; you level up by killing zombies and depending on what perk you selected your abilities to remove them becomes easier. It adds a nice strategic element wile giving you an incentive to keep playing the game. Team work is also big in Killing Floor, if you stray from your team odds are your going to die, that simple. Another nice touch is the welding system. It adds the ability for any player to weld a door shut from the zombies. With the combo of perks, good teamwork and being able to weld doors, gameplay in Killing Floor can be both very entertaining and satisfying.
The game runs on the UT2004 engine but holds up to any Source game on the market. The attention to detail is amazing. For such a dated engine the game looks amazing wile running smoothly on older computers. Tripwire found the perfect ration between great visuals and accessible system requirements.
Killing Floor is all about fast paced action mixed with a variety of strategic elements. Anyone who is a fan of first person shooters should own this game period. Six player coop, great visuals, low system requirements, perks, zombies, and chainsaws all for 20 fucking dollars . . .?!?!? The game sells itself.

On the surface, bead embroidery really is very simple -- just a couple of easy bead stitching techniques. But once you've mastered the basics, you can use bead embroidery to create astoundingly complex pieces of beaded jewelry! Today's guest blogger, Cyndi Lavin, is no stranger to astoundingly complex -- and beautiful -- bead embroidery. Read on to find out what inspires her to create, and how she wants to inspire creativity in others who share her passion for beads.
Ancient Waves by Cyndi Lavin
We all know that beadwork can be a ridiculously painstaking medium for
self-expression, and it could be argued
that bead embroidery is the most painstaking of all. It can also become ridiculously expensive, since once you get started, you have to have seed beads in every color, shape, size and finish!
Not all artists have the obsession with attention to detail that's required on the beaded path, but those who do are rewarded beyond measure. Not
only by the work itself, but also by the inclusiveness of the amazing community
of beaders. There will always be room for more members!
So, looking at bead embroidery another way, what could be easier or more
appealing than stitching beads onto fabrics to create a world of color, texture, and and emotion? Bead embroidery is
an art form that is easy to learn and accessible to everyone, but it also has unlimited
capacity for increased complexity...or even for weirdness. As time goes on, you find yourself wanting to
add a whole bunch of other things besides just beads, like found objects, and sometimes you also
find yourself stitching on materials other than fabrics...and so it goes. Now you're working with mixed media bead embroidery, with no boundaries at all.
My goal as a bead artist and writer is to help you find your way into this
fabulous art form. Did you know that you
really only need to know how to do five bead embroidery stitches to get started? If you already know bead-weaving, I'll bet you already
know how to do peyote stitch. Four more
stitches are all you need to learn: back stitch, stack stitch, edging brick
stitch, and picot stitch. That's
it! I wanted to make it really easy for
you to see if this is a journey you'd like to take, so that's why I offer the first chapter of my
e-book Every Bead Has a Story, for free. It covers my favorite materials, tools, and stitches (including the four
stitches listed above), plus it has a beginner project. The additional chapters of my book
focus on altered surfaces, dimensional beading, found objects and unusual
materials, and integrating bead embroidery with other fiber arts.
Arctic Frost by Cyndi Lavin
Everybody's beading journey is different, and there are an unlimited number of
other beading techniques and bead-weaving stitches that you can add to your repertoire once you've
decided you're hooked. And you probably
will get hooked, so maybe I should throw in the warning right now: run away
before it's too late!
I first began making bead embroidered necklaces, I tended to favor the familiar
collar style. They were fun to make, but
I felt that I had worked too long and hard to master all the off-loom bead-weaving stitches to simply throw away those skills. Eventually my style morphed into one that
combined all the techniques that I love: embroidery, off-loom bead-weaving,
stringing, and wire work. That's where I
am now, and my newest e-book, Some Assembly Required, focuses on working with smaller components that are
then attached together to form the final necklace.
Where to next? Only the beaded path ahead knows for sure! Enjoy the journey!
Follow your own beaded path and see what lies ahead. Looking for more great inspiration for mixed media bead-weaving and bead embroidery? Take a look at The Art of Forgotten Things by Melanie Doerman. You'll find page after page of inspiration, ideas, and techniques for taking everyday objects and using them to tell your own unique stories through beaded jewelry. Get your copy of The Art of Forgotten Things and see how you can make memories that will last a lifetime with your beads.
How do you tell stories with your bead-weaving and bead embroidery? Leave a comment here on the Beading Daily blog and share your thoughts with us!
Bead Happy,
Cyndi Lavin is a writer, bead artist, bead blogger, and a really good cook. You can find out more about her through her website, Beading Arts.
Melanie Doerman was a beloved member of the beading and mixed-media jewelry community for many years. A popular workshop teacher and a frequent contributor to Beadwork and Belle Armoire Jewelry magazines, she lived in California with her husband Asbjorn. The Art of Forgotten Things was Melanie's first book.
"so that's why I offer the first chapter of my e-book Every Bead Has a Story, for free." I don't see a link to this offer. Would love to see it.
Thanks so much for this great blog about beading on fabric. All too often, I find that beaders forget that we who sew on fabric are also beaders, too. For my own art quilts, 1 sq in or 2.5 sq cm takes 1 hour to complete. Some of my larger pieces weigh as much as 25 pounds or 22.4 kg, so I use a LOT of beads. However, when I settle in for what I call the Time of the Long Sew, there's a Zen-like quality to the work and hours fly by,,,,
Nancy Smeltzer
I'm just beginning beading and this work is truly inspirational! Embroidery is what you make it...totally from the heart!
Jennifer, thank you so much for allowing me to gush about my love for this art form! Folks who are having trouble finding the link...just visit the link to "Every Bead Has a Story" which is highlighted in the post. Scroll down just a bit and you'll see the icon for the free chapter. Left click and it will allow you to download the free pdf!
Thanks for the feedback, everyone!
I wish this were in print. I can't deal well with ebooks.
Very inspiring. I had a vision of bead embroidery in my head for years but was afraid to attempt it. Finally got the courage and completed my project just as I had invisioned it! Advice to others - Just do it!
I'm delighted to see this interview with Cyndi Lavin. I've followed her mixed media and bead embroidery work for a long time.
I have "Every Bead has a Story", as well as her more advanced bead embroidery book, "Some Assembly Required - Bead Embroidered Components". Her tutorials are top notch!
Tip for Lois2037: Cyndi's books are PDFs, so you can print them out. I'm with you, there's nothing better for following tutorial directions than a "real" book.
The Art of Forgotten Things. A Beautiful Book written by a Beautiful Woman; Melanie Doerman.
Being as sentimental as I am, this book not only give us so many inspirational ideas of how to wear and display our cherished items, but it also has shown me that there are others in this World who are as Sentimental as I am.
Rest In Peace Melanie, your talent and beauty you created through your works will live on Forever!~

The highly anticipated performance is part of Tiësto's Club Life College Invasion Tour, and in addition to Tiësto will feature acclaimed EDM (electronic dance music) talents ZEDD and Allure.
"We are incredibly excited to welcome one of the world's most talented and respected DJs to Tucson, and are thrilled to host what we believe will be the largest, most spectacular show our city has ever seen," said Adam Richman, CEO and Founder of The Big Room Group, an event production company responsible for bringing some of the largest music events to the region including N9NE Fest, DAYGLOW, and performances by renowned DJs Benny Benassi and Avicii.
Scheduled on what University of Arizona students call "Dead Day Eve," popularly known as the last night of revelry prior to final exams, ticket sales for Tiësto's December 5th performance have soared. An initial offering of five hundred discounted student tickets sold out in less than twenty-four hours, and the remaining standard-priced tickets are expected to do the same. Approximately 5,000 fans are expected.
"Without question, this will be the most incredible EDM event Tucson has ever seen," Richman added. "Not only will fans be astounded by the talent and energy that Tiësto, ZEDD and Allure deliver, the audience experience will be heightened ten-fold by the superior sound, video, lighting and special effects we have in store. It is beyond what we've ever done, and without a doubt an experience not to be missed."
Tiësto, singled out in 2011 as "The Greatest DJ of All Time" by Mixmag, has established himself as one of the world's most in-demand names in the electronic music genre. With achievements that include a GRAMMY nomination, a performance at the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, and collaborations with artists such as Kanye West, Coldplay, Gotye, and Katy Perry, Tiësto has without a doubt become a true worldwide phenomenon.
Tickets for the Tucson installment of Tiësto's Club Life College Invasion Tour are available for purchase online at http://www.showclix.com/

Thread: Squad Load outs.
Squad Load outs.
When Im not filling my role as Super-Medic, I fill the roll as squad leader. Over the last few days I have been wondering what the best load out for the squad might be.
Normaly I keep my squads with this set up.
Fire Team 1
Me: Officer
1: Medic
2: Rifleman
Fire Team 2
1: Medic
2: Grendier
3: Kit as needed( AT, Support or Sec Ops, depending on what we are trying to do)
This set up seems to work well, though I find it hard to keep find quality medics out there. Fire Team one supports fire team 2 and keeps the squad alive, while fire team 2 does the scouting. The only problme I have found is dealing with squads filled with Grendiers bombarding us to peices.
Any thoughts on better set ups, or alternate set up depending on the map?
Re: Squad Load outs.
I find squad loadout depends on the map, SL's intentions regarding respawn (APC, team spawn point, squad RP) and mission.
By far the most common role for my squad (dirtside) is flag cap. The loadout for that is officer, rifleman, 4 medics. I've been known to swap one of the medics out for AT sometimes. I'm heavy on medics because we get shot an awful lot going for the flags, and we can't afford to lose people (not to mention the team can't afford the ticket loss). Depending on my respawn intentions, I'll sometimes switch the officer kit for whatever kit fits the mission at the time.BFCL TF2 league admin

Re: Squad Load outs.
I gotta agree with Root on this one. Having an abundance of medics is good in almost all situations.
If I don't know what I'm going to be getting into or going up against, I'll go Officer, 2 Medics, 2 Riflemen and a LightAT. I prefer having more medics, though.
Re: Squad Load outs.
Root especially needs an abundance of medics if I'm one of the medics. They spend more time reviving me than him, and that's saying something!The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt. ~ Bertrand Russell
I have a tendency to key out three or four things and then let them battle for supremacy while I key, so there's a lot of backspacing as potential statements are slaughtered and eaten by the victors. ~ Magna Centipede

Re: Squad Load outs.
Gotta disagree with a bunch of medics. They improved body armor substantially in PR compared to vanilla. You can get hit square in the chest several times without even incurring bleed. As a medic, that wont happen. This is why you so often shoot a guy 10 times point blank and he doesn't die.
So, at most i would suggest 2 medics. They stay behind while the other 3 with body armor assault the flag directly. If the body armor guys go down, medics can pop smoke and rush up to revive. The SL can find a nice spot and pick people off from the shadows, and since its PR you dont have to worry about keeping a spawn point as much because you should have a RP farther back.
Re: Squad Load outs.
That "sounds" good
I give all squad members kit orders and rally location at the start of the map. After that... Everything changes, kits, vehicals, teamkills (wait tks?), everything. The best squad is the most flexable one.doYouEvenLiftwaffe
Re: Squad Load outs.
I just tell anyone who joins mine to pick what they feel. Doesn't work to bad when I am not being pummelled trying to advance the RP, usually just me because the skin on my guy must have the triple X head on it, and the rest of the squad merrily goes on it's way. And then there is the ralley hunt or APC destroy missions I bumble off on trying to protect my squad while taking a flag. I sure do wrack up the deaths but it either keeps them safe or gets them the info they need for where to look. To my surprise, and occassional delight, they even choose to go medic on occassion. Reviving me as I lay in the middle of the road or when my huge melon is the only thing hanging around the corner.
Don't let the bastards grind you down!
Re: Squad Load outs.
people have different tastes and practice with different things. whenever i lead i find it's best to ask for a Volunteer medic who can do the job well, and a Volunteer rifleman who can reload us. everyone else is free to kit up as they wish. as long as they stay on the goal and listen up when im talking i'm a happy camper, it also generally means we can work more efficiently as everyone is familiar with their kits. ever see stickyjeans69 as top squad leader?
Re: Squad Load outs.
I think the biggest thing is goals and the individuals you have with you. Me personally, Im not that big of a medic junkie. 1 Medic in my sqd seems to suite me well enough. Im more of a riflemen junkie. With the use of RPs i personaly dont see a need for 2 + medics, as long as the sqd stays armed, things usually seem to work out.

Re: Squad Load outs.
I like to go with:
Fire Team 1
1: Officer
2: Medic
3: Revolving spot (support gunner, DM, or some form of AT)
Fire Team 2
1: Medic
2: Grenadier
3: Rifleman
Unless we come up against an APC, in which case if I have a light AT guy with me, I'll instruct the rifleman to sneak back to fireteam 1.
I usually have FT2 move ahead of FT1. This way, if they spot anything FT1 can maneuvre to support their engagement. I find that nothing clears an enemy infantry squad then a grenadier and rifleman from high ground.
Re: Squad Load outs.
Medics have no armor?! Hell no Root, I'm going rifleman next time. You tricked me, you bastard.The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt. ~ Bertrand Russell

Re: Squad Load outs.
Thats something to take into account, the lack of body armor. Really medic is the worst kit to assault with.
If it only had just 1 nade............sigh.I kill terrorist.
I do good.
I have top score.
I a Dutch.

Re: Squad Load outs.
One item I forgot to mention NO SNIPERS doin the lone patrol. If your gonna move on our perimeter and keep an eye on us or call out enemy just maybe it is OK.
< Sniper here ------------- Us here >
When suddendly...... BLAM - "Us" gets taken out by entire squad who walked directly in front of snipers field of vision (who doesnt say a word or call out a single enemy). Sniper then starts pickin off the bad guys at the flag who feel confident enough to stand up as they just wiped "Us" out.
< Sniper here-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Us and the rest of the team here > 10 miles away

Re: Squad Load outs.
So do I. If you think about the time it takes, to rev, and then heal, you are almost to a full spawn time. Not to say medics are useless, but one or two is maximum I want in my squad. IMO the revives are just not happening enough to justify more. Think of all the tickets you lose when a grenade lands on a bunch of medics, and that happens all the time with the abundance of tubers.
Instead of having half my squad looking down at the ground, feeling up their medic bags, I like to have them aware and scanning the area.
You do need a medic, in case you lose a guy in relative safety, or if you can kill all the enemy, so you can proceed to revive safely.
Other then that, you need a riflemen.
So in summary I will have
1 to 2 medics,
1 riflemen,
1 at/support gunner (when he can get it)*
1 grenadier/hat/(sniper)*
They will get this kit if they can spawn close by on the rally point. If they spawn on the other side of the map for a sniper-kit, they get kicked, unless it was accidental.

Re: Squad Load outs.
I sometimes quite like a sniper in my squad - but it needs to be somebody who knows what they are doing, and who communicates a lot. It's also great on maps where you don't have a great team/commander - you can leave the sniper covering the flag while you move off, meaning you always get adequate warning if you've been bypassed.

just for a change my DS9 had a accident on Sunday afternoon.
He slipped off his bike whilst attempting stunts and his shin slid across some pointy bits on his pedal which split the skin and made it bleed lots. It was horrible and I knew it wasn't right when i could see bobbly bits inside the cut.
I got the bleeding to stop and waited a couple of hours whilst he calmed down and I kept an eye on it, then when it kept weeping every time he moved I decided a visit to the accident and emergency department was in order.
After a 3 hour wait (it was very busy) and chatting with a couple of other Mums from his year at school who were in there with their children, he had 3 injections to numb, a clean up of the area with a toothbrush (ouch!), iodine, a dozen steri strips and a big bandage we went home with instructions to be very careful as the skin is so tight across there the srips could just burst open......
I wrapped him up in a bit of cotton wool and kept him home from school on Monday, then he went back yesterday with a warning not to play football at break - well he did but it was ok apparently as he was only in goal.
he had sports day at the local leisure centre today and it's on again tomorrow but he wasn't allowed to take part which is a shame as he loves the running races.
The hospital nurse was a little confused to start with as she'd seen the injury on DS14 knee and thought it was him she had to treat! His wasn't quite so bad though and I'd managed to deal with his at home a few days earlier!

Relief for 6 week old with gas pains
Yes slowly a softly push LOs knees to his/her chest. It works every time for my dd. It instantly brings her relief.
I stay crafty, check out my facebook page.
It does get better with time. Around 3 months things should vastly improve. We tried gas drops, but it didn't really help all that much. A friend of mine whose LO is about 2 months now said gripe water helped immensely. Every baby is different, which is basically the answer that can answer all questions. Our pediatrican prescribed a probiotic called Lactinex, but I can't say it if really made a difference either. Just time is what you need.

If you are in a plague-ridden spaceship with no idea what is killing off your passengers and crew one by one, what do you do? How will you deal with the panic and the fear, and your own feelings of despair that you may not be able to save the people you love? The protagonist's sense of helplessness in this story--one of Kate Wilhelm's early science fiction work--leaps off the page, making it clear why Wilhelm is considered one of the great writers of her time. She provides psychological depth to her characters, and although the themes may be common, they are never trite. Most of the stories in this collection of her early work are about love. However these present a vastly different picture of love from the clich�s of romance novels. It is forbidden love developing in a tense evacuation of a planet under threat of extinction, the ultimate sacrifice of love vis-�-vis a lifelong ambition to go into space, and the love taking roots in the heart of a solitary man for his robot wife. It is also the love of two people who have been shunned all their lives for their difference, and the love of monks for their God and their mission, willing to be together for hundreds of years with only a card game to stave off their boredom on their long space travels. More than just love stories, though, this collection talks about what it means to be fully human. Wilhelm deftly shows how, in the age of space travel and android beings, we can hold on to our humanity.

Glee Lemon-Lime and Spearmint
I was traveling earlier this week. I went to San Francisco to the Fancy Food Show. Though I drove, I still carried some gums with me, as driving over a few of the passes make my ears pop and the drive can be monotonous.
Glee Gum is made with natural chicle and natural colorings, quite rare on the market these days.
The chew is soft, the candy shell has a crispness that doesn't last long. It's not a thick shell that makes little crunchies in the gum, it dissolves quickly. The flavor is sweet with a mild but indistinct citrus note to it. It's kind of like a lemon chamomile tea. The sweetness fades quickly, though it is rather cool on the tongue for a while, as most xylitol candies and gums are. The zest continues, and gets a little more intense after about 4 or 5 minutes ... then I think the gum is done as far as the flavor goes. The chew is still good, in fact, I prefer the chew of the sugarless Glee to the sugared kind ... it's slightly stiffer and doesn't stick as much.
After chewing the gum, about a half an hour later, I thought my mouth was still rather fresh feeling. Not a lingering mint, but just a sort of jasmine tea freshness. The citrus doesn't go well with coffee, but for getting rid of coffee breath, it's pretty good. Xylitol, as a sweetener, is actually good for dental health, so I'm trying to get into the habit of chewing in the afternoon to freshen up my mouth.
Spearmint is a largely underutilized flavor in the confectionery world. Peppermint is the default, though as herbs go, spearmint is far more ubiquitous and easier to grow. The dark green pieces are naturally colored and quite appealing. They don't smell like much, it's not like sticking your nose in a half-emptied packet of Wrigley's Spearmint gum, which always smelled so fresh.
The shell on the sugary variety is a little crunchier, though not by much. The flavor of the spearmint is mild and pleasant, but not overt like an Altoid. The chew is soft, though it stiffens up and gets a little bit sticky at times as the minutes pass. I was able to manage some moderate bubbles at time, though I was much better at cracking my gum with this version.
The sugar faded away within minutes, though the herbal and grassy spearmint notes hung around for quite a while after. After discarding the gum, the minty freshness dissipated within about 5 minutes.
When I first tried Glee Gum years ago, I didn't care much for it. It's certainly grown on me and it's become my go-to gum for traveling. Partly because of the natural ingredients and partly because I like the chiclet style and simplicity of the boxes.

Hershey's Symphony with Almonds and Toffee Chips
It's odd to think that the 10 most popular chocolate candy bars have been around longer than most of us. Those bars are Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, Snickers, M&Ms, Hershey's Milk Chocolate and KitKat, all of which were introduced before 1950. Plenty of candy bars have come and gone over the past century, but it's so crowded at the top with those tried and true favorites. I bring this up because it's rare for me to remember the introduction of a new candy bar that's actually still on the market 25 years later.
Hershey's launched a new line of chocolate bars in 1989 with a simple idea, that they were a little creamier than their famous Milk Chocolate and Milk Chocolate with Almonds. They came up with the brand called Symphony and introduced them with actual fanfare ... commercials featuring classical music.
Their tagline was pretty good: They'll never be another unfinished Symphony.
The packaging design is largely unchanged since their introduction in 1989. There are two different bars in the line, the same as at the launch. There's a plain milk chocolate bar (with red accents) and the Symphony Creamy Milk Chocolate Almonds & Toffee Chips with blue accents. Though they're both still on the market, the Almond and Toffee Chips is the easiest to find, since it's distinctively different from those other top 10 bars.
The bars themselves have changed quite a bit, partly because Hershey's no longer wraps their bars in foil with a paper sleeve. The Symphony bar I picked up bore a striking resemblance in shape to the Hershey's Almond bar ... once I opened it, it was pretty clear why. It's now the same mold. The previous versions of the bar had segments with the Symphony logo at the center of each.
The current ingredients are not at all premium:
I found a wrapper online from 2001 that tells a simpler story (but the current bar is .1 ounces larger):
When I was photographing the bar, I noticed that it had a lot of voids and bubbles in it, so I weighed it to make sure that it was accounted for in the bar. Sure enough, the bar weighed 43 grams, the wrapper states 42 grams.
Though it looks like a Hershey's chocolate bar, it doesn't taste like it. That's not to say that it's spectacular or that different from many of the other inexpensive chocolate bars, but it definitely doesn't have the Hershey's sharpness. Instead of the bar is fudgy sweet, so sweet that there's very little chocolate flavor. The dairy notes are good, and combine well with the toasty flavors of the toffee chips and almond bits. It's exceptionally sweet overall, only the inclusions give a little relief.
For the most part the bar gave me a sore throat. The combination is refreshing for the price point, but for a little more I could just get a Ritter Sport bar or even a Toblerone (but really the same price per ounce), since their bars are two times or more the size). If Hershey's wants to step up their game with this bar, I think it needs a brand refresh - I'm not saying they need to go dark chocolate, but actual better chocolate like the Bliss line or going with a certified cacao source would help it stand out.

Alter Eco Organic Black Truffles
Alter Eco Organic Black Truffles were on sale before Christmas, so I picked up a box to put in the mix for Christmas stockings.
The box is very simple and reminiscent of the Lindt Lindor range of truffles. They're quite similar in many ways. The back of the box notes that this is a classic redefined. Then it goes on to mention the filling is made with nourishing coconut oil. It's no wonder then that I think these are the fattiest fat bombs I've ever reviewed, at 180 calories per ounce (note: I think the Ferrero Raffaello ended up at the same calculation in review, but newer packaging has it down to 170).
The ingredients are 97% fair trade (probably the milk ingredient is keeping it from 100%) and all organic (except for the natural flavors). The cacao is only 58%, which seemed a little paltry for something called black. There's also milk in there, which is disappointing as well, since I thought maybe these were vegan. (The top of the box says "made with pure coconut oil" which I guess is just to distinguish it from Lindt's Lindor line which uses palm kernel oil in addition to coconut.)
There are a lot of little symbols on the back: fair trade certified, non-gmo, organic, gluten free and carbon neutral. There's no soy in there, either, though the chocolates are made on shared equipment with soy, hazelnuts and almonds. They're not kosher (though Lindt Lindor truffle range is.)
They look like Lindor, little chocolate spheres, with a small seam around the center where you can press carefully to separate the sides if you wish. Alter Eco has a little fluting on it. They're glossy dark and smell quite rich.
The Ecuadorian chocolate shell is dreamy smooth. There are lots of berry notes like dark cherries, blackberries and a little hint of coffee and tobacco. There's an acidic finish to the shell, but it's moderated by the filling if you eat them together. (I seemed to end up with more shell than filling at some point, either at the beginning or the end of each piece.)
The center is smooth and varies in texture depending on the temperature. It was quite cold in Los Angeles when I prepared this review, so the centers were very firm and almost fudgy to the bite. (My little candy studio was about 62 degrees.) At a more normal room temperature like 70, the center is like a whipped cream, quite soft to the bite but not flowing. The flavor is a thinned out version of the shell. The milk doesn't do much, it's mostly coconut which doesn't provide any additional flavors here, except to keep the berry flavors muted.
These are very expensive, I think about $7 or $8 a box. I got mine on sale, and think that $5 is about as high as I'd go for a package, even though they're fair trade and all that. The good news is that a couple of stores near me sell these individually, I think for 75 cents each. So, I don't have to commit to a whole box, just a little fix now and then.

Dove Mocha Latte & Dark Chocolate Swirl Promises
Friday is good coffee day for me. All days are coffee days, but on Fridays I treat myself to a simple cappuccino in the morning when I get to the office. So, it's only fitting that this week my Friday review is of a coffee flavored product: Dove Mocha Latte & Dark Chocolate Swirl Promises.
I spotted them at CVS earlier this week, though it's hard to believe I was able to tell that they were new. There's no "new" flag in the corner of the package and the muted amber and brown doesn't look that different from the burnt orange and brown of the peanut butter version.
It's a very long ingredients list.
I was sorry to see the use of artificial colors and PGPR in there. I think of Dove as trying to be premium, sometimes, but this wasn't as promising as I'd hoped. I had this problem with too much coloring with the Mint Swirl as well. What was also missing from the back was the Rainforest Alliance logo, Dove has been working towards certified sustainable cacao for a while, and some packages feature the logo (I picked up the dark chocolate RA ones for Christmas stockings).
It's been a long time coming: a coffee Dove chocolate. There were Tiramisu Dessert Promises seven or eight years ago, but they were caramel filled just had too much going on. Dove has a pretty good track record of putting an appealing coffee flavoring into chocolate, as I did like their Mocha Premium M&Ms and Cappuccino 3 Musketeers (why don't they make a coffee Milky Way?).
I don't know what manufacturing magic creates the swirl of dark chocolate and the mocha latte in the Dove Promises, but it's genius. Each piece is like work of art, like looking at beautifully polished redwood burls.
When it comes to how I like my coffee, I'm very close to black. For brewed coffee, a little dribble of half and half (enough to cover the bottom of the cup) is all I need to give the bitterness a creamy edge. For an espresso drink, I lean towards the flat white or a less milky cappuccino (basically, only crema and a touch of steamed milk). So, I've been looking for a chocolate coffee candy that simulates that - not a milk chocolate candy or a chocolate with whole bits of coffee beans in it.
The pieces smell sweet, but authentically like brewed coffee. The bite is pretty stiff, but the melt is smooth. The flavors are balanced, I catch plenty of robust chocolate notes to go with the woodsy coffee. There's a hint of bitterness along with the sweet aftertaste of the milk.
Basically, these hit all the right elements for an ideal chocolate & coffee candy for me: not too sweet, lots of coffee flavor, touch of bitterness and a creamy mouthfeel. With those met, I consider this great. They're expensive, at least at my CVS they were marked at $5.29 though I did get them on sale for $3.50 and they're not Rainforest Alliance yet. Other than that, I find them spectacular. Your mileage may vary, depending on how you like your coffee and your coffee flavored candies.

Guinness Luxury Milk Chocolate Caramel Bar
Combining spirits with chocolate is pretty common. There's a new genre, though, the combination of brewed drinks added to chocolate. I picked up the Guinness Luxury Milk Chocolate Caramel Bar at an after Christmas sale, when it was only $1.49 for the Ireland-made bar.
I'm not a beer drinker, as I don't care for very bitter things, so Guinness has long been on my list of things that I don't drink. Guinness is a dry stout introduced in Ireland in 1759. It's quite dark and has a very distinctive look and long history.
Flowing caramel skilfully handcrafted in small batches, flavoured with GUINNESS and set in a creamy milk chocolate shell to create a unique bitter sweet chocolate experience.
So, as is the case with most alcohol-infused chocolates, the stout is mixed with the caramel, not the chocolate itself.
The bar is nicely crafted. It's a long bar, with domed segments. The indentations between the segments are pretty thin, so my bar was broken in several places, but along those margins. The good news is that the caramel does not enter those segment breaks, so it didn't become an oozy mess.
It smells distinctly of beer and milk, which really isn't a pleasant smell in itself, only by association with pleasant experience with actual beer products. The yeasty notes reminded me more of bread, which is a nice combination with chocolate. The milk chocolate is quite sweet, though smooth and a bit on the fudgy side. The caramel filling dominated the flavors, though.
There's not a lot of caramel in there, but certainly flavorful stuff. It's the flowing kind, with bready, malty flavors and a definite bitter hop note that wasn't too distracting. There's a smidge of salt, but not a lot of toffee or toasted sugar.
I'm curious to try their Guinness Fudge, if it's done with a lot of butter, because I think the yeasty flavors might go well. I'll pass on the beer, caramel and chocolate here, though. It's just too sweet, which is exactly what I wouldn't want with beer.

An employee who requested and was granted a lateral job transfer, and later sued for discrimination, was not precluded from claiming that the transfer was an "adverse employment action," according to a recent decision by the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals, Deleon, et al. v. Kalamazoo County Road Comm'n, et al., (6th Cir., January 14, 2014).
Although the ruling appears on the surface to put employers in an untenable position, consideration of the underlying facts is enlightening. Important to the court's decision was the fact that even though the plaintiff applied and interviewed for the position, he was initially rejected, and the position was filled with another candidate, who left shortly thereafter. Nine months later, the plaintiff was transferred into the position, without reapplying. According to the employer's deposition testimony, the plaintiff did not have the option to stay in his former position at the time of his transfer. The employer stated that the transfer was part of a larger "reorganization."
The conditions of the new position were somewhat hazardous including working in a garage with constant exposure to diesel fumes. Plaintiff alleged that he developed bronchitis, a cough and sinus headaches from breathing the black soot every day.
The employer defended by arguing that in accordance with settled case law, because the plaintiff's job reassignment resulted in no changes in salary, benefits, job title or work hours, it should not constitute an adverse employment action. In fact, the plaintiff stated that he thought the job to which he was transferred had better career opportunities.
However, the Supreme Court has indicated that whether a particular reassignment is materially adverse depends upon the circumstances of the particular case and should be judged from the perspective of a reasonable person in the plaintiff's position. White v. Burlington N. & Santa Fe Ry. Co., 548 U.S. 53, 71 (2006). Accordingly, the court focused on whether the conditions of the transfer would have been objectively intolerable to a reasonable person. In doing so, the Sixth Circuit reversed the lower court's entry of summary judgment for the employer and remanded for further proceedings.
Judge Sutton wrote a dissenting opinion explaining that, in his view, when an employee applies for and obtains a job transfer, his employer cannot be said to have subjected him to an adverse employment action. But the majority opinion cited several other decisions in which courts have held that the fact that the employee requested the transfer does not categorically bar a finding of an adverse employment action. Thus, it is important to consider the conditions of a transfer, even if lateral, before transferring an employee, or allowing an employee to transfer, to a new position.

A run at history
Moody's mile-relay team heads to state meet for first time since 1968
When Robert Arredondo took over the boys track and field program at Moody this season, it brought back memories of his days as a sprinter at Carroll.
A junior in 1994, Arredondo was an alternate for the Tigers on their 1,600-meter relay team that finished seventh at the University Interscholastic League state championships. Now he's headed back to Austin, only this time with the Trojans.
"I told the guys that no one from Corpus Christi has been to state in the mile relay in a long, long time, and for Moody it's been since 1968," Arredondo said. "The kids are excited, motivated and are enjoying every minute of it. The best thing is that we have a lot of underclassmen, so we're going to have experience for next year."
There's plenty coming back.
Raul Galvan, Garfield Sinclair and Thaddeus Spencer are juniors. The only senior is Brandon Callies, who ran in place of junior Aaron Alaniz at the Region IV-5A meet in San Antonio.
That unit set a team record by running 3 minutes, 21.31 seconds to finish second and earn a trip to Austin.
"We wanted to run at state so bad," Callies said. "It was pretty hard, but we were able to achieve our goal. We're really pumped. We're ready to go up there and run."
It all starts with Callies, whose job as the opening leg is to push the team out front. Then it's on to Galvan, who attacks the curves with speed in an effort to keep the Trojans from getting stuck in a pack.
From Galvan the baton goes to Spencer, an 800 runner whose consistency on the track allows the squad to keep up the pace. As the anchor, Sinclair's responsibilities are simple.
"Everybody expects you to bring it home for them," Sinclair said. "That's my job, to get the win or at least get us a medal. That's what I go out there to do."
Compared to the start of the season, Arredondo said Sinclair has come a long way.
"Garfield has learned how to run anchor throughout the year," Arredondo said. "At the beginning he would just want to pass everybody in the first part of the race. Now he's running smart."
Smart enough to also qualify for in state in the 400.
After posting the fastest time in the preliminaries, Sinclair finished second in the race at the regional meet with a personal best 49.55. The mark ranks eighth in the field at state, but that doesn't bother Sinclair.
"I just want to go out there and do my best," he said. "I'm going to go out there and give it 100 percent."
Sinclair plans to do the same when the Trojans take the track Saturday at 8:40 p.m. for the 1,600 relay. His teammates share the same attitude.
"We've had our ups and downs, but once it came down to it we got after it," Galvan said. "Right now we're at our best and we're pumped up. We're going to go in there, run our best and see what we can do."

Kale Chips
Yield: about 40 chips
These ingredients are:
Vegetarian Vegan Corn-free Dairy-free Egg-free Gluten-free Peanut-free Soy-free Tree nut-free Wheat-free
The new craze sweeping the nation involves the simplest of preparations but the end result is surprisingly delicious! These addictive snacks are crispy and flavorful (like green potato chips!) and oh so very good for you.
- 1 bunch kale (I prefer dinosaur kale, but any type works beautifully) Add to list
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil Add to list
- Salt, to taste Add to list
Optional seasonings
- Lemon pepper Add to list
- Seasoned salts Add to list
- Finely ground Italian herb blends Add to list
- Nutritional yeast Add to list
Preheat oven to 300° F.
Wash kale and dry well. Remove the center stem from kale leaves and cut each half leaf into about 3 pieces. Place the pieces in a large bowl and drizzle with oil. With your fingers, massage oil into all of the little nooks and crannies of the kale.
Spread out kale onto baking pans in a single layer (this helps make them crispy). Roast for 12 to 20 minutes (depending on how hearty the kale leaves are) or until it starts to gently brown at the edges and becomes crisp. Don't overcook.
Sprinkle with sea salt and eat sooner rather than later. Bet you can't eat just one!
For sea salt and vinegar chips: Sprinkle about 1 teaspoon vinegar on kale before roasting, or you can use a good-quality vinegar as a dipping sauce after the chips are cooked.

Kale Chips
This was a fabulous side dish. Easy to prepare. One tip that was on the TV show was to grab the leaves at the thick end and slide your fingers down the center stem. Leaves come right off. Faster then trimming off the stems.
Next time I will try with other types of Kale.

I added some ground cashews, gives them a cheesy flavor. Excellent.
