Check the frequency printed on the receiver crystal, and make sure it matches with the transmitter crystal. Make sure no one will operate on the same frequency when you are. When there is a radio glitch, it will most likely be caused by improper crystal, damaged crystal, or people operating on the same frequency. 6 OPERATION/RADIO BATTERY INSTALLATION a b a. Install 8 AA size alkaline batteries into the transmitter. b. Secure the Ni-Cd battery pack (not included) into the battery tray with supplied rubber bands 4 7 RADIO OPERATION a b c a. When turning radio on, first turn on the transmitter. b. Then, turn on the receiver. When turning off, first turn the receiver off, then the transmitter off. c. To reverse the functions of servos, use the small, white servo reverse switches located on side of the pistol transmitter (or the inset servo reverse switches located at the bottom of the stick transmitter). To trim the servos on pistol transmitter, use the trim switches on side of the steering wheel (the ST. trims steering, and the TH trims throttle/brake). On a stick transmitter, the trim levers are located accordingly around the sticks. d. For more details, please check the transmitter instruction manual. 8 OPERATING RADIO STEERING FUNCTION a b c Due to its unique steering system, the following advises for the controlling should be noted, a. First, flip the steering servo reverse switch (see 7c). The steering is basically accomplished by changing the center of body gravity, not the turning of the forks. With the radio transmitter and receiver on, turn the steering wheel/stick to the right. The body leans towards the right side (The front tire/wheel should turns left oppositely), the chassis follows, leaning to the same side. If not, flip the steering servo reverse switch again. b. Return the steering wheel/stick to neutral. The front tire/wheel should point straight forward. c. Turn the steering wheel/ stick to the left. The front tire/wheel should turn right oppositely. 5 9 ADJUSTING ELECTRIC SPEED CONTROLLER Before operating your model, you have to set to either NEUTRAL or HIGH SPEED position of the electric speed controller prior running the motor. a. Neutral Setting Hold on your R/C model carefully. (Always keep the wheels off the ground when checking the operation of the radio equipment) Connect the wire to the battery pack Turn on the transmitter, and then switch on the electric speed controller afterwards. Set up the throttle of the transmitter (trigger/stick) to the neutral position and the throttle trim knob/lever in the middle. Find the supplied tuning wand in the package or a small screwdriver. Insert the wand into the adjustment hole on the electric speed controller, and slowly adjust the "Neutral" screw (potentiometer) on the unit until the green led indicator goes out. Then the motor should stop at the neutral point. b. High Speed Setting Hold on your R/C model carefully. (Always keep the wheels off the ground when checking the operation of the radio equipment) Give the throttle of the transmitter (trigger / stick) to the full position. And then adjust the H.S. "High Speed" (potentiometer) screw to the position where "High Speed " is commanded from your transmitter and the led indicator turns into red constantly. You may adjust the throttle travel to customize the best control to meet your requirement by tuning the "High Speed" position. 10 BATTERY CHARGING Make sure that the battery pack is completely discharged prior to charging. Discharging the battery pack by running the electric motor until it slows down. For best results, let the battery pack cool before charging. Heat may prevent the battery from charging to full capacity and also decreases the performance of the battery. Once the battery is ready to be charged, first plug the AC charger into the outlet of AC power source, then plug your battery pack in the charger. Continue to monitor the battery as it is being charged. As soon as the battery is fully charged, disconnect the charger from the battery. 6 11 OPERATION TIPS 1. Hold the transmitter with one hand, finger on throttle, 2. With the other hand hold the bike. And then give it throttle while you push the bike a little. The bike goes away in a straight line. Then you reach for the steering control and the fun begins! 3. When cornering, slow down the speed to make the turn easier. 4. If the bike falls due to loss of balance, the side guard wire will support and prvent the body from scraping. 5. To continue bike's running, technically give it a slightly more throttle to help the bike back to the balanced running. (Note: Do not give the throttle too much to avoid the spin.) MAINTENANCE AFTER RUNING 12 1. Always turn off the radio system and unplug the battery pack when not using the bike. 2. Remove the sand, dirt, and any other elements completely from the bike before you store it. WARNING Thank you for purchasing a Thunder Tiger Product.

An October 6, 2010 report issued by the Iowa Fiscal Parntership, a nonprofit Iowa economic research group, providing various facts and figures related to state budgeting.
POLICY BRIEF October 6, 2010 www.iowafiscal.org Getting Public Value Out of Our Public Dollars Do Iowa's Spending Choices Represent Iowa's Values? By Andrew Cannon Days before the end of his tenure as director of the Department of Natural Resources, Rich Leopold spoke to The Des Moines Register about the difficulties of running a chronically underfunded agency. At the same time that state parks are experiencing record use, DNR has insufficient funds to staff those parks. "We have cut back on mowing, cleaning bathrooms, on emptying garbage, on keeping trails open," Leopold told the Register.1 In state fiscal year 2011, DNR was appropriated $15.6 million, down from $22 million in FY2009.2 Apart from reducing maintenance of the parks that thousands of Iowans enjoy each year, the agency has been forced to cut other services on which businesses and Iowans rely. "I have gotten I don't know how many complaints from legislators and small business owners about, 'You used to do this and now you don't any more,'" Leopold told the Register. "[Y]ou want smaller government, this is what it looks like."3 Clean, well-maintained parks represent just one of the many public services and structures that Iowans value. Quality education is widely recognized as the key to keeping Iowa's economy strong. To assure that a quality education system is maintained and strengthened, the state and local school districts must work together to attract and keep good teachers, continually develop curriculum and invest in their buildings and equipment to strive for cutting-edge performance. It takes a sustained, strategic commitment of resources by all Iowans, from the State Capitol to Main Street, carefully allocating federal dollars, setting priorities for state dollars, and permitting flexibility to meet locally identified needs in the coordinated drive to help Iowa's young people achieve. Many farmers and growers, who represent a substantial portion of Iowa's economy, use the expertise of agriculture specialists at Iowa State University. Over 260,000 Iowa children have access to health care through state programs.4 The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP (formerly known as Food Stamps) helped a monthly average of more than 295,000 Iowans meet basic food needs in 2009.5 All Iowans, in businesses, in their homes and while traveling, depend upon police officers and firefighters to assure the safety of their families, on courts to provide justice and on prisons to keep criminals off the street. And all conceivable economic activity makes use of publicly funded roads and highways, water mains and sewer lines. These are all examples of public structures and services. They are people, plans and institutions that must be in good operating condition to protect Iowans' health and safety, and promote a strong economy. As the DNR episode illustrates, the past several years have brought unprecedented threats to The Iowa Policy Project CHILD & FAMILY POLICY CENTER 20 E. Market Street 505 5th Avenue • Suite 404 Iowa City, IA 52245 Des Moines, IA 50309 (319) 338-0773 • www.iowapolicyproject.org (515) 280-9027 • www.cfpciowa.org these foundations of Iowa's economy and culture, through loss of resources, and misleading rhetoric. Iowa's public services and structures must be funded and staffed at a level that ensures that they function as Iowans need and expect. It is difficult to determine what the proper level of funding and staffing for state agencies should be. Every year, heads of executive agencies make those determinations based on their legislated functions and submit their needs to be part of the Governor's budget proposal. Though members of the public may not have the expertise to gauge what is a sufficient staff for DNR, for example, we can examine historical funding and staffing. When historical levels of funding and staffing are compared to recent levels, it is apparent that funding and staffing of state services and structures has not grown excessively, as some claim. In fact, when population growth is taken into account, funding and staffing for many public services and structures has held steady and in many cases, actually decreased. State Expenditures The DNR story cited above provides a vivid example of how agencies must respond when their funding is cut. Data reveal that DNR is not alone — all state agencies and functions have seen declines in funding. When compared to the growth in personal incomes within the state, state general fund appropriations actually shrank by more than one full percentage point in the first part of the 2000s. Figure 1 illustrates that general fund appropriations as a percent of personal income has been significantly lower in the past decade than it was during the 1990s. Since FY04, spending has been on an upward trend; it must also be noted, however that spending levels since FY04 have remained around a full percentage point lower than the high-watermark years of the 1990s. Further, because data was not yet available, Figure 1 does not illustrate the past year of spending patterns — including the Governor's 10 percent across-the-board budget cut. State spending as a Figure 1. State General Fund Spending has Decreased share of state personal as Percent of Personal Income income — a measure of the size of Iowa's economy and the ability of Iowans to pay for public services — is the best overall Sources for Figures 2: Iowa Legislative Services Agency, State Fact Books, 1993– 2008, & U.S. Dept. of Commerce, Bureau of Economic Analysis measure of the size of government. It takes into account population growth, inflation, and income growth by measuring whether the total amount spent has grown more or less rapidly than total income. Sources: Iowa Legislative Services Agency; State Fact Books, 1993-2008; and U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of Economic Analysis. State Employees Another way to measure the size of government is to look at the number of employees on the state's 2 payroll. By the simplest measure — number of state employees — state government has grown only slightly since the early '90s. However, when state employment is measured relative to Iowa's population, a better measurement, the size of government has actually decreased. In 2008, the state employed 54,547 full-time equivalent employees, compared to 53,280 in 1995. On average, the state has employed 53,672 employees each year since 1995, with a high of 55,200 in 2000 and a low of 52,325 in 2002.6 These figures include all employees of the state's three Board of Regents universities, but do not include K-12 teachers, who are employed by the local school district. Within most areas of state government, employee levels have remained relatively stable over time. Table 1 displays the number of state employees by function or service from 1992 to 2008. The two major exceptions to stability are corrections and natural resources personnel. While the number of full-time equivalent corrections employees has grown by over 1,140 employees since 1995, the number of natural resources full-time equivalent employees has shrunk by over 700. Since the early 1990s, there has also been considerable growth in education personnel. Table 1 makes clear, however, that the growth in education personnel occurred in the mid-'90s — clearly not the result of runaway hiring in recent years. It should be noted that Table 1 and Figures 2 and 3 do not include FY10, when the governor's 10 percent across-the-board cut forced vast reductions in the number of public employees or FY11 when early retirements shed nearly 2,500 workers from the payroll.7 Table 1.

The number of state employees grew by 1,267 from 1995 to 2008. Over the same period, Iowa's population grew by 153,127. When factoring in population growth, however, this actually meant a slight decrease in the number of state employees per 1,000 Iowans. Employees per 1,000 residents peaked in 1997, at 19.6, and by 2008, had fallen to 18.2. Figure 2 below illustrates the 3 number of state employees from 1992 to 2008. Figure 3 shows the number of state employees per 1,000 Iowans has held steady since the early 1990s. Figure 2. Number of State Employees Has Remained Stable Over Time Source: U.S. Census Bureau, 1995-2008 Annual Survey of State and Local Government Employment and Payroll Figure 3. Number of State Employees Per Thousand Iowans Has Held Steady Sources: U.S. Census Bureau, 1995-2008 Annual Survey of State and Local Government Employment and Payroll and Population Estimate Branch Why Has State Government Shrunk? While state employment has held steady over the past decade and a half, private sector employment and income has grown, so that state government has shrunk as a share of the Iowa economy. The primary reason is that Iowa's constitution requires the state to have a balanced budget. Given the level of state revenues, state government has been forced to reduce its size. But why have revenues shrunk? Iowa's population, as noted above, has grown by over 150,000 people since 2005. Personal income in the state more than doubled between 1991 and 2009.8 There are four main reasons that state government has shrunk since the 1990s. • The rapid growth of corporate tax credits — In an effort to spur economic growth, Iowa offers a 4 number of tax credit programs to businesses. Businesses that qualify for the credits can use them to reduce their taxes and may even receive refund checks if the credit exceeds their tax liability. While their benefits are uncertain, Iowa's tax credit programs have severely and increasingly cut into state revenues. One such program, the Research Activities Credit, cost more than $70 million in FY09, and is forecast to reduce state revenues by more than $178 million over five years between June 30, 2009, and June 30, 2014.9 The five costliest corporate tax credits — the Research Activities credit, the Film and TV credit, the Industrial New Job Training credit, the High Quality Job Creation credit and the Enterprise Zone credit are projected to cost more than $600 million between FY11 and FY14.10 • The failure to close tax loopholes — Every year, Iowa loses $60 to $120 million in corporate tax revenue because large corporations are able to transfer profits to subsidiaries in states that do not have corporate income tax.11 Adopting combined reporting would bring millions of dollars of needed revenue to the state, while affecting very few corporate income tax filers. • Tax cuts — Since the late 1990s, Iowa has enacted a number of income tax reductions. A 10 percent across-the-board cut in 1997 reduced revenues by $228 million by FY01.12 Apart from reducing the revenues needed to fund critical services, many income tax reductions, such as the 1997 across-the-board reduction, disproportionately help the wealthiest Iowans. At the same time, Iowa has come to rely on the sales tax more, the burden of which is disproportionately borne by lower-income Iowans.13 • The Great Recession that began in December 2007 caused tax receipts to sag far below their expected levels in 2008 and 2009. As thousands of Iowans lost their jobs, saw their wages stagnate, and reduced their spending on consumer goods and services, state revenue decreased by $30 million — nearly 1 full percent from FY08 to FY09.14 Lagging tax revenues prompted Governor Culver to cut state general spending across the board by 10 percent last fall, meaning many departments saw and will see layoffs and early retirements.15 The federal American Recovery and Reinvestment Act provided the state with funding to prevent the staffing cuts in state agencies and in school districts from being even worse.- Conclusion Publicly provided services are part of the foundation of all Iowans' private and economic lives. Facing budget and political pressure, state policymakers may be tempted to cut some of these structures in the next legislative session, but they and their constituents need a firm grasp of budget context and impacts, beyond political talking points. Up until Fiscal Year 2009, staffing and spending for Iowa's critical services were being maintained at levels comparable to those of the past 20 years, even while the population served grew. While lawmakers have faced difficulty in balancing the budget, much of the challenge is due to the recent national recession and the rapid escalation of state spending on tax credits that frequently benefit only large, out-of-state corporations. The size of Iowa's government — all the public services and structures that Iowans use and rely on for their economic and recreational activity — should be not be dictated by numbers pulled out of thin air. Rather, the size of Iowa's government should represent the values of Iowans. It should be staffed and funded sufficiently to maintain Iowa's parks, to educate our children, to keep our neighborhoods safe, to keep the public healthy and to allow our businesses to grow. 1 William Petroski, DNR Chief Blasts Cuts in Funding, Des Moines Register.

(n), (v); the act of hot-boxing one's car when it is completely covered in snow. The experience is not only unique and enjoyable, but also very secure because outside onlookers cannot tell that Cannabis is being consumed within the car. One should be sure that upon entering the vehicle and closing the door, that the user does no knock all the snow off the window. This is very easy to do accidentally and destroys the concealment and novelty of the Igloo.
You wanna go igloo my car???
My roommate is home, we can't blaze at my place; its cool we'll just igloo my car.

POPBAR is the chic-est pop you will ever have!
I am an official "popaholic" now! Didn't know it until last week when I visited the coolest new trend in artisan cold desserts in NYC called Popbar. Artisan ice creams are not new, although very popular, but none are as cool and fun for adults and kids as Popbar, located in the West Village of NYC. I met Reuben Ben Yehuda there, one of the creators and owners of Popbar and he gave me and the kids I brought an amazing tour and tasting of all that Popbar has to offer. Imagine this: the freshest flavors in pops, including peach, passion fruit, mixed berries, mint, coconut, chocolate, pistachio, blood orange, vanilla and much more, available as either gelato, yogurt, or sorbetto pops. That's not all! Now dip or half dip them in what they call "Poppings" - like dark chocolate, milk chocolate or white chocolate (Yup! Its real white chocolate) and then other natural toppings, I mean "poppings" (no gummy bears, or rainbow sprinkles here), chocolate chips, chocolate sprinkles, chopped nuts, pistachios, and more. Hundreds, maybe thousands of options; my time there was definitely too short!
Popbar was opened in May of 2010 by two European Jews, Reuben Ben Yehuda and Daniel Yaghoubi, one from Italy and one from Germany and was immediately recognized and featured by the Food Network. At my visit to Popbar, I asked Reuben, "What makes these pops so fantastic?" He said that they took 2 years developing the concept and recipes. Each flavor is made with fresh ingredients - some from Europe (like the pistachios), and all are made in the store in the West Village so they have total control of taste, texture and the final product. Most of the pops are sold within 24 hours of being made. Also, the experience is so special and specific for each customer, some eat them plain and savor the delicious flavor and others create the most incredible and endless possibilities of combinations. I first had the peach, topped with white chocolate and almonds. So summery, and the hint of rich white chocolate made it decadent. Next I moved on to my daughter's mixed berry plain, a perfect blend of berries, and then to coconut, which is so impressive. It tastes like real coconut, not highly sweetened unnatural and imitation coconut. I am not sure if people really appreciate the complexity and deliciousness of real coconut but this is it. Dipped in chocolate it was heavenly, without all the calories and fat of ice cream (okay the chocolate dip added a little but, hey, I had to splurge a bit).
Popbar pops are not something I want to have every so often when I make it to the village but every night. Lucky for me they make them to go in a six-pack thermal bag and they deliver in NY to homes and businesses. They even do parties with mini-pops all over the Tri-State area including Bar and Bat Mitzvahs. Call them, check them out in NY, or visit their website for details. And go hungry; you will want to taste a bunch!

What is it about fasting that makes us all so obsessed for days before the fast? I am not referring to the spiritual side (as that is worthy of the obsession) but the food aspect. Did you know that most healthy adults could survive many days and up to a month without eating? Regardless, days before the fast, I am reducing my caffeine intake and worrying about how I will manage. I have heard of all sorts of "fast survival" techniques, from caffeine suppositories, extra strength Excedrin without water (that's my personal favorite), drinking coffee right before the fast to fool your system and give it caffeine for the morning, eating 2 tablespoons of honey before the fast, and crazy carbo loading. Everyone has their own strategy; tell us what yours is so we can share it with our readers.
GKC consulted with the experts (now who is an expert faster???) and here are our tips and recipes for a successful fast.
- Lots of Water. The discomfort from fasting is actually not from fasting but from lack of fluid. Super hydrate before the fast. Drink a great deal a day or two before as well and then really fill up with fluids before the pre-fast meal.
- Reduce caffeine intake. The headache associated with fasting is from caffeine withdrawal. One week prior to fasting start reducing your caffeine intake to about 1 cup a day or drink decaffeinated teas and coffees to fool your system. If this is too tough, seriously consider the caffeine suppositories or an aspirin before the fast to rid yourself of those headaches.
- Eat Normal Sized Meals. Overeating will not stave off the effects of hunger and may make you more uncomfortable. The excess fluids needed for your body to process large meals may also lead to dehydration which is counter productive. So while we eat numerous meals before the fast and a pre-fast meal, do not overeat.
- Eat carbs; yup, it's true. Complex carbs like those in pasta, breads, rice, fruits and vegetables, are best for maintaining energy levels during the fast. The also help your body absorb water more efficiently so eating carbs will help you stay hydrated. Whole-grain products and fruits and vegetables with fiber are best because they digest slower and keep you feeling full longer.
So what are you making? One friend serves Pizza, and another serves salmon, rice, and whole-wheat pasta.
I'm making some of these…
Salmon Burrito
Angel Hair Pasta with Mixed Tomato Sauce
Watermelon Tomato Salad with Mozzarella Cheese and Lemon Dressing
Zaatar Salmon
Lots of fruit for dessert
Chocolate Chip Banana Bread
Emuna loves to break the fast with…
Classic White Bread
Minestrone Soup
This is a great weeknight dinner or lunch anytime. I like to eat it sometime before a fast because it is filled with carbs but also has some healthy protein in it. Its great with smoked salmon too but that may be too salty before a fast.
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
8 large eggs
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons chopped chives
1 red pepper, sliced and cut in half
1 cup diced tomato
8 ounces cooked salmon fillet (I use whatever is left over from a weeknight salmon dish), cut into bite-size pieces or smoked salmon
1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
4 large (burrito-size) flour tortillas, warmed
Salsa (optional)
1. Heat oil in a skillet over high heat. Add eggs and milk; scramble in skillet. Cook until barely set, then stir in salt, pepper, chives, red pepper, tomato, and salmon.
2. Spread 2 tablespoons cream cheese onto center of each tortilla. Spoon warm egg mixture over cheese, dividing evenly. Roll up burritos, tucking in ends. Serve with salsa if you like.
The tomatoes are so ripe and delicious this time of year. In this recipe we used different color tomatoes to give it more color and flavor. If you only have Roma tomatoes or Vine Ripe red ones the recipe still comes out very tasty.
2 tablespoons pure olive oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 large shallots, minced
1 pound yellow tomatoes, diced
1 pound ripe green heirloom tomatoes, diced, or vine ripened red ones, diced
1/4 cup chopped basil
2 sage leaves, finely chopped
Kosher salt to taste
1/2 pound angel hair pasta
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature, or 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
In a skillet, heat the oil. Add the garlic and cook over low heat until fragrant, 2 minutes. Add the shallots and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until softened, 4 minutes.
In a bowl, toss the tomatoes with the garlic, shallots, basil and sage. Season with salt.
In a pot of boiling salted water, cook the pasta until al dente; drain and transfer to the large bowl. Toss well with the butter; serve.
Watermelon and tomatoes are so good for a pre-fast meal. They both contain a lot of water to keep you hydrated.
3 cups watermelon, cut in chunks
3 cups tomatoes, cut in chunks
3 green onions, finely chopped
3 tablespoons lemon juice
6 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and pepper to taste
1 cup good quality mozzarella cheese, cut in ½ inch pieces
Whisk together the lemon juice and olive oil. Add kosher salt and pepper to taste. Toss the watermelon, tomatoes, onions and cheese. Add the dressing, toss and serve.
When the nine days arrives, it seems to be the signal that summer is almost over (even if there are still many weeks until school starts!) and, even more importantly, it seems that Rosh HaShanah is right around the corner (stay tuned for our great High Holiday menus and restaurant recipes!) But I'm getting ahead of myself. Right now the goal is to participate in the mourning for the Temple in Jerusalem by not eating meat or drinking wine yet still preparing healthy and tantalizing meals for our families. At GKC, we empathize with that goal and want to share with you some of the recipes we are serving. We would love to invite you all over but the next best thing is making these dishes and drinks yourself.
Just because we can't have wine doesn't mean we can't have other drinks. This Spicy Bloody Mary is one of my new favorites.
There's nothing that says Nine Days about these Butterscotch Cookies but they're so good, it doesn't matter.
A little fish, a little salad, a cold soup…and the nine days will be over before you know it.
2 ounces vodka
6 ounces Spicy V8 juice
1 teaspoon lime juice
4 dashes Tabasco sauce
Combine all ingredients. Add ice and shake. Bottoms up! For another refreshing summer cocktail, try this Mojito.
1 cup (2 sticks) margarine, softened
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2-1/4 cups flour
¾ teaspoon baking soda
1 cup chopped walnuts
2 cups butterscotch chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream together margarine and sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla. On low speed, add flour and baking soda. Stir in nuts and butterscotch chips. Shape dough into 1-inch balls and place on greased cookie sheets. Flatten slightly. Bake for about 12 minutes. Cool on cookie sheets 2 minutes before removing to wire rack to cool completely.
If you're still in the mood for cookies, try your hand at these Double Ginger Cookies.
This is worth breaking the budget for; it is delicious in its utter simplicity.
1 cup flour
8 (4-ounce) sole fillets
4 tablespoons oil
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter
½ cup butter, cut into pieces
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Mix flour with salt and pepper and place in shallow dish. Dredge fish in flour. Heat oil and butter in large skillet over medium-high heat. When butter has melted, add fish and cook until golden. Flip over and repeat with other side. Transfer to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm. Add butter for sauce to skillet (for very clear sauce, pour off drippings and wipe skillet clean) and cook until melted. Turn off heat and stir in lemon juice. Spoon gently over fish. Eat slowly and savor.
For other delicious fish dishes, check out our index.
The addition of yogurt makes this a dairy salad, and therefore perfect for this time of year.
3 apples, chopped (can be a combination of Granny Smith and Fuji or Gala)
1 (8-ounce) can sliced water chestnuts, drained and chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
½ cup dried cranberries
3 tablespoons crystallized ginger, finely chopped
½ cup vanilla yogurt
¼ cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons sugar
¼ teaspoon ginger
¼ cup chopped toasted pecans
In a large bowl, toss together apples, water chestnuts, celery, cranberries and crystallized ginger. Whisk together yogurt, mayonnaise, sugar and ginger. Pour over salad and mix well. Refrigerate until serving time. Sprinkle with pecans.
Fruit salads are just right in the summer time; for variety try this one also.
If you like mango (I do; my husband doesn't), then you will probably really enjoy this refreshing summer soup.
2 cups diced mango
2 cups orange juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 seedless cucumber, diced
1 red pepper, diced
1 small red onion, diced
1 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
1 small jalapeno, minced
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
Purée mango, orange juice and olive oil in a food processor. Mix with remaining ingredients. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
If you have a husband like mine or if you are just looking for an alternative, try this Cantaloupe and Fruit soup.
When it comes to alternative milks the options seem endless today - soy milk, rice milk, gluten-free options, nut milks and coconut milk. Readers often ask which to use and when. We asked GKC contributing nutritionists to weigh in on how they stack up nutritionally and we added our best GKC advice on what works well in cooking.
Everyone loves sno-cones, those paper cones of crushed ice with colored, (very) sugary syrup poured on top. No child's party is complete today without a sno-cone machine! And I frequently see adults flocking to the counter and pretending their child needs two! That's fine; they are so fun and refreshing on a hot summer's day. But for those of you who wanted something slightly more sophisticated, the grown-up version – granitas – couldn't be easier, not to mention better and fresher tasting (no offense to sno-cone purveyors intended). Try these recipes to impress your family and friends. Serve them for dessert on Shabbos lunch with some cookies or on their own in the middle of a hot afternoon.
Blueberry Granita
Coffee Granita
Strawberry Granita
Or try our Watermelon Granita.
The freshness of the ingredients makes all the difference!
5 cups fresh blueberries
1 cup sugar
1-1/2 cups water
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Purée the blueberries and sugar in a food processor. Stir in water and lemon juice and pour into a glass rectangular baking dish. Cover and freeze. Every hour scrape and stir the mixture with a fork until evenly frozen – about 4 hours. Scrape into martini or other attractive glass dishes for serving. Serves 8 to 10.
1 cup simple syrup (purchased or you can make your own by dissolving ¾ cup sugar in 1 cup hot water)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3 cups sliced strawberries (about 1 pound whole)
Stir lemon juice into syrup. Purée strawberries in food processor. Stir in syrup and pour into rectangular glass pan. Freeze until icy, scraping with fork every 45 minutes to 1 hour. Totally freezing takes about 4 hours. Keep covered and in freezer until ready to serve. Scrape into glass dessert dishes for serving. Garnish with a sprig of mint if desired.
This couldn't be easier – but it tastes so good!
3 cups hot brewed coffee
¾ cup sugar
1 cup pareve whip
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Stir sugar into hot coffee until dissolved. Cool and pour into shallow glass pan. Freeze, scraping with fork every hour until icy and frozen – about 4 hours. In the meantime, beat pareve whip until fluffy. To serve, scrape granita into glass dessert dishes. Garnish with a dollop of whip and a sprinkling of cinnamon. This makes 4 to 6 servings and can easily be doubled for more people.
We live in a time when most of us who live in larger Jewish communities have so many choices of where to dine. Cities are bursting with restaurants yet finding that unique eating experience is rare. Pardes, located in the Park Slope section of Brooklyn, New York is quite an extraordinary dining experience. First, the style is casual yet chic; chilled out like the neighborhood. The menu changes each evening as the Chef, Moses Wendel, sees what is fresh and what those choices spur creatively. (We have been tracking him for about two years already as you may remember. GKC raved about Wendel stealing the show at the Royal Wine Kosher Food and Wine Show in NY 2 in 2010. Wendel went on to open the much acclaimed Basil and now has his own restaurant, Pardes) The food presentation is fabulous, with bright white plates of all different shapes and gorgeous food with vibrant color and stimulating texture . And finally, the general vibe is "enjoy the food" since it is served as it's prepared, individually, not all at once, and with no rush to get you out. For a bunch of neurotic multi-tasking New Yorkers, this meant it was time to relax and just enjoy – which we did thanks to some delicious and unusual food and good wine.
We went with 4 other friends so we had a lot of food to try. Chef Wendel's menu is unbelievable with dishes like "Grilled Treviso, beef heart, poached egg, red pepper" (the poached egg sat in the middle of the dish – btw, huge food trend in the treif world- incredible flavor and I never thought I would taste beef heart, super tender, melt in your mouth), "Duck with Root Beer, peanuts, celery, Ras el Hanou and Harissa"(Moroccan hot chili sauce), "Wild Tasmanian Sea Trout, red pepper sauce, corn crepe, pistachio leek fondue", "Bluefish Bergamot (that's a citrus fruit and when was the last time you saw bluefish on a menu?), and so much more. The trout was prepared perfectly with a seared crisp top and a soft, flavorful center. I had wanted double the amount of the pistachio leek fondue, which was hard to share with the others. Each dish is prepared individually and is spiced with intense flavors that balance and compliment the other flavors and yet never overwhelm the dish as a whole. The Beef Cheek Pizza, with 24-hour roasted tomatoes and fresh basil, was a particular favorite. Even my husband who does not enjoy spicy food found the flavor and intensity so perfect. Another highlight was the "roasted corn, grapefruit and fennel salad". Sprinkled with arugula and sitting on a bed of corn pudding and mizuna (Japanese lettuce), and topped with corn bread croutons, I was sold on this restaurant at this course. Even the crispy fries are unusual, as they are served with this delicious onion parsley garnish, and amazing dips like garlic truffle mayo and smoky red wine ketchup (I really want to package and buy these for home use!)
Pardes was a food lover's fun evening, as it was an evening to enjoy taste, presentation, and great company (people were sitting and eating all night). Get there to taste the summer's freshest food and go often because Chef Wendel will surprise you each night with a an incredible creation you will certainly not find anywhere else. One of the best new great kosher restaurants around, for sure.
Finally, one last treat, with all this wonderful food, the bill was a very reasonable $380 for 6 people including wine and dessert.

I just had my period on wed. and I just picked up my pills on Mon. should I take sun and mon today?This is the first time trying this type of birth control. I was only able to pick up my prescription today=Mon. I did have my period start on wed to friday last week. So I was wondering if I should take two today or if I should wait until next week? Or if it would be best to wait until next month, which I would rather not do if possible. Thank you for any info you could send me.
When should I start to take my birth control pill - Jolessa?

It would probably be a good idea to check with your doctor if this is your first time using them, you could take Sunday and Monday together but I would check with the doc for safety if you don't want to be pregnant then I would wait until you speak with the doctor or use back up condoms. Abstanence is always the safest form of birth control but see what the doc says. marjorie zych
21 Sep 2010
Since you missed taking a pill on the first day of your period you should now wait until the first Sunday after your period begins (this Sunday) - you will need to use back-up protection for the next 7 days.
(Alternatively you could start anytime - but you will still need to use a back-up method of contraception for the next 7 days. The reason Sunday is suggested is that your period then is more likely to come during a week day and not the weekend)

It's been a year since the disappearance of her best friend Alison, and Aria Montgomery has returned from her father's sabbatical in Iceland to a whole new dynamic in Rosewood. Her former friends, Hanna, Spencer, and Emily have all disbanded - and the formerly chubby, gawky Hanna, has become the new Queen Bee. Aria's fling with a cute, young college grad named Ezra goes awry when he shows up at her first day of class as Mr. Fitz, her new English teacher. Hanna shoplifts a pair of expensive sunglasses from the local mall and gets caught - though the man on the case, Detective Wilden, has his sights more set on her newly single mother, Ashley. Meanwhile, Emily is secretly wrestling with her sexuality, sparked by the addition of a spunky new girl on the block nam ed Maya, and all-star student Spencer must deal with her sister's flirtatious new fiance.
Each girl harbors a secret too personal and scandalous to ever reveal, though a sudden string of ominous messages from "A" threatens to expose them all. Is there friend Alison still alive and watching - or is it someone else completely, toying with our pretty little liars?

Flickr Hive Mind is a data mining tool for the Flickr database of photography. Flickr Hive Mind is a search engine as well as an experiment in the power of Folksonomies. All thumbnail images come directly
from Flickr, none are stored on Flickr Hive Mind. These photos
are bound by the copyright and license of their owners, the thumbnail links take to you to the photos
(as well as their copyright and license details) within Flickr. Because some other search engines (Google, etc.) index parts of
Flickr Hive Mind, you may have been led here from one of them. Welcome to Flickr Hive Mind, almost certainly the best search engine for photography on the web. If you are a Flickr
user and use Flickr Stats you
may have seen people being led to your photos via Flickr Hive Mind (as a Referrer).
Flickr requires that I inform you that Flickr Hive Mind uses the Flickr API, but is neither endorsed nor certified by them.
There are literally hundreds of other web tools built around the Flickr API, see
Flickr Bits for a bunch of examples.
If you are unhappy with your photos' presence on this site, you can (a)
make your photos private for yourself, friends, and family. These settings will be instantly honored by
Flickr Hive Mind and all other API-driven applications. (b) Hide your photos globally from text and tag searches on 3rd party sites that use the Flickr API, via your preference settings on Flickr. See the privacy tab at:
http://flickr.com/account/. To also remove yourself from searches for specific user names, you will need to set your Flickr profile to be hidden from searches. Flickr has finally created a single page with all these settings, this is much easier to do now and is the preferred method - it will shut down all API driven sites.
(c) Finally, you can
Banish Yourself
From Flickr Hive Mind. To banish yourself from Flickr Hive Mind, you must first authenticate to Flickr, which lets Flickr Hive Mind identify who you are. Once logged in, come back to this area
and there will be a link to banish you. If there are any problems email me at nosflickrhivemind ... at ... fiveprime ... dot ... org. (a few people with weird characters in their user names may have had problems)Log In To Flickr Now
Flickr Hive Mind is a data mining tool for the Flickr photography database, allowing search by: tags(keywords); Flickr photography groups; Flickr users, their contacts, and favorites; free text; the Flickr Explore algorithm for interestingness. Flickr Hive Mind can also be an effective tool to identify photography with licenses that allow non-commercial (and sometimes) commercial use. Written by:
Nathan Siemers.

Dedicated to
Anna and her Flickritis.

Flickr Hive Mind stores no
personal information nor photos,
but some general time and IP address information ends up in my apache server logs. For additional details see the privacy policy.
Any revenue generated through advertisement on this site is used only to cover the cost of keeping the site online, beyond that Fiveprime donates to charitable organizations (also, there are no ads on User pages). Flickr Hive Mind is currently consuming about 13.6 terabytes of network bandwidth per year (not including the photos themselves)!
