I just started a new job as a pension analyst....
I just started a new job as a pension analyst. I can't describe how much I love music. Sports are one of my passions but they definitely aren't the be-all, end-all in life. Sports are so much better when you have someone to share them with. When it comes to me, what you see is what you get. My sense of humor is definitely laid-back and sarcastic. Who doesn't love to laugh and joke around? Making those I care about laugh and smile is a great feeling. Humor/laughter/comedy is one of the greatest things about life. I can definitely be serious when a situation calls for it. Arrogance is awful. Popular trends are something I could care less about. I'm looking for a woman who I am compatible with. Ideally, we would always have a great time together no matter what we did. Also, she would be someone I couldn't wait until I could see again. She has to have a sense of humor. It's massively important that my match have a similar personality to me. Honesty, trust, and dependability are crucial, if you don't have those things you don't have anything. I have a lot to offer when it comes to the right girl. Having all the same interests would be pretty boring but you need to share enough in common to be able to do stuff together. Physical attraction is definitely important but so is an emotional/personality connection. I don't play games and I'm not looking for someone who plays games. Hypocrites suck. *I know, no bonus points for creativity when it comes to my username. Beardless for the first time since November.*

Delicious! Just follow the recipe and you wont be disappointed. a new favoritesflag if inappropriate
Excellent! Have made this a few times now, pretty much exactly as written. Even my husband had no idea it was made with brussel sprouts. If you can, do the sprouts in a food processor as it's much faster and easier. Enjoy!flag if inappropriate
Kids and I love this. Added a little honey to the dressing and raisins to the salad as well. Needed a little sweetness. Also found it to be better after sitting overnight. The kale softens just a bit as it absorbs the dressing. Keeps well in the fridge for up to 3-4 days without getting soggy. We eat it all week.flag if inappropriate
Terrific winter salad. It stays for a few days in the refrigerator after being dressed-delicious. I have subbed in pine nuts for the almonds and found that works very well.flag if inappropriate
Even kids who don't like greens loved this salad (just don't tell them what's in it!) It is our "go to" recipe when asked to bring a dish. It is amazing and always gets raves at every party.flag if inappropriate
Absolutely amazing salad! I top mine with pomegranate seeds and used shaved parmesan which added a great texture. I also like to give the almonds a rough chop so you can get more nutty flavor in each bite. Dress early and be prepared to fall in love with this salad!!flag if inappropriate
definitely a great salad. i must say, though, that last night when i served it, i thought it was just okay. but when i had some left over today, i realized how amazing it is! it's true what the other reviewers said: dress early. even 24 hours ahead. it wasn't limp in any way, just melded together better and the kale wasn't harsh or dry.flag if inappropriate
I've reviewed this before as 4 stars but wanted to note that I made it again and this time topped with pomegranate seeds and feta (instead of the pecorino). I'm obsessed with this salad.flag if inappropriate
Wonderful salad. I added a little rice vinegar to dressing and added dried cranberries to salad. My husband wants me to make this again tonight!flag if inappropriate
This salad is a keeper but make sure that you measure precisely. I added too much lemon and too much dijon so I ended up adding some honey to cut the taste. I loved the advise of one of the contributors and used my Cuisinart for the brussell sprouts. What a time saver!! I have used this salad dressing before on romaine lettuce which tastes like a caesar salad.flag if inappropriate

Winter!: Prepare for holiday gaming!
PGR3 is one of the first games I got and it was pretty fun while it lasted. Should have went for the higher difficulty to begin with because running through the races all over again becomes tough to do especially when other games come out.

Article By Jonathan Martini - August 3, 2009
Today we will be examining the eVGA GeForce GTX 285 SSC. As can be gleamed from the name, this card is built using the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 chip. Video cards based upon this GPU have been on the market for a while, and have had this graphics card power my system for the past few months.
As one would expect by the name, this GPU is an evolution of the GeForce 280 GTX chip. Most of the evolutionary benefits can be attributed to die shrink to 55nm from 65nm. Benefitting from this, the 285 GTX provides an additional 40MHz for the core clock speed, an additional 180 MHz for the stream processors and an extra 270MHz on the memory.
Note that we are examining the factory-overclocked SSC edition from eVGA. The SSC edition adds an extra oomph. The core clock is running at 702MHz, 54MHz over the standard 285 GTX and a full 100MHz faster than the 280 GTX. The shader clock is running at 1584MHz, 108MHz above standard and the memory is running at 2646MHz, 162MHz above the typical 285 GTX.
While some things change, the basic infrastructure of the card remains the same as it still uses 240 stream processors divided into 10 clusters, 80 texture units, 32 ROPs and 1024 MB of GDDR3, which is benefitting from a full 512 bit interface bus.
The 285 GTX is not only faster than the 280 GTX, it is also more power efficient. NVIDIA has been able to reducing the amount of power needed to not only power the card, down to 183W from 236W on the 280 GTX, but has cut the power flowing into the card as the 285 GTX no longer necessitates an eight and six pin PCI-Express power connector, but now only requires two six pin connectors. This is the same connectivity requirements as the 260 GTX and 275 GTX.
NVIDIA's current flagship product, the GeForce 295 GTX, is a multi-GPU solution; therefore the 285 GTX is currently NVIDIA's fastest single GPU solution.
The following information is provided by GPU-Z, which is a free utility from TechPowerUp that reports GPU characteristics.
GPU-Z also reports on various sensor readings, which includes GPU and circuit board temperatures, fan speed and internal core voltage.
The GeForce GTX 200 Series has a number of architectural improvements over the previous generation of GPUs.

Hi ladies ! First I would say that I'm looking for that special someone to complement me for the rest of my life ... as I would her!!

I've always said I wish I could order up a woman like I would a pizza :-) tehehe ...I love the little things in life ... a beautiful sunset, snuggling in the morning, holding holds, an unpredictable kiss, a quick back message, a sexy text in the middle of the day ... Obviously we're all looking for that one true love to walk beside one another and share life with !! Seems like couples just give up anymore !! Relationships can be a lot of work at times !! Its necessary to go that extra mile both giving 110 % !! I would describe myself as fun, vibrant, bubbly, passionate, feisty @ times ;) very positive person, always has a smile !! Honest to a fault, outgoing, love to try new things ! I'm very affectionate !! Very hands on, love to snuggle, hold hands, love to kiss, love the feeling of being in love and I show that love very strongly to my woman !! I'm a good person but I do have that lil bit of wild side also ;) I'll keep you entertained and wanting more !! I'll be that one person you cant wait to get home to at the end of the day ... as you'll be that person for me !! Talking about how your day went as we share a****ail while cooking a fabulous dinner together ... one of my most absolute favorite things I love to do !! Then end the night cuddled on the couch enjoying a glass of wine together watching a great movie ... sounds like heaven to me !!! I love a great authentic Mexican restaurant along with a jumbo margarita ... also love Italian food as well !! I love to listen to music and right now its all country baby ;) might even dance around waving my hands up in the air like just don't care tehehe !!! I know I'm definitely looking for that committed relationship !! It seems though its difficult finding that beautiful sweet lady who will be a perfect match !! If I seem like the type of a man you are searching for send me an email and lets see what happens !! Thanks you ladies for taking the time to look at my profile ...

That was rather painless. I called 611 and told them I needed to talk to a Tier 2 tech support. Told them I've been expiring major problems with the Bionic dropping data over the last 6 months. Went into further detail that there have been a few Motorola patches addressing the data issue but it didn't help and just told them that I was frustrated with the phone. I asked if I could exchange to another model and told them I had no problems with my Rezound. They said they could exchange a Rezound for me and I even asked if the Galaxy Nexus was possible and they said they could do that too. I ended up choosing the Rezound though. Shipped via FedEX overnight to me with battery and cover.

How-to: R100GS (paralever) to R100G/S (monolever) conversion (LONG)
I wanted to put this together for a while in a more comprehensive report and a fellow ADVrider finally "made me do it". This is NOT a step-by-step installation with exact measurements and coordinates, this is a conversion performed in a machine shop with the right tools at hand to make any necessary modification on the spot. Also, this isn't the only way how to approach that kind of modification.
For the benefit of those that have already studied the subject in detail and have decided to accept the monolever (dis)advantages over the paralever (dis)advantages, I am posting my experience with adapting a 1985-on monolever rear end to a paralever (GS) mainframe. The project went through more trial and error stages than described here and I will provide sources for the full story at the end:
Part 1: Modifying the rear shock bracket on the monolever swingarm
I had a lower shock mount bracket welded to the rear swingarm, dimensionally equal to the G/S swingarm. I don't have any dimensions for that, my machinist took both parts and replicated the bracket. I fitted swingarm and a dummy (K100) shock and found that the swingarm is angled a lot more than stock. To the extend that the u-joint grinds in the swingarm! What's going on here? So, off on ADVRider I went to get dimensions as I sold my own 82 G/S a couple of weeks before starting this venture. Thanks to woodgrain and TEXASYETI, I was able to find the problem. A couple of sketches first.
Now, let's use some more sophisticated way of showing the difference:
The need for the swingarm extension was however not only based on the neccessity of moving the lower shock mount bracket as willbe discussed later. For one, it had to be moved back just shy of 1in further to the back to compensate for the lower upper shock mount of the GS frame.
Part 2: Extending the swingarm
Fitting a monolever swingarm to a 1990 GS frame is one thing, extending the swingarm at the same time another. I deemed the extension necessary, because the (GS) paralever swingarm is 35mm longer than the monolever of the G/S. That alone, with a stock GS front end, would lower the rear end. Therefore I decided to extend the swingarm moderately by 30mm. I calculated the force at the swingarm pivot point to increase by about 30%. Since the paralever GS uses the same frame, I am taking my chances and not reinforce that area on the frame. At the same time, the extension also requires a 17% higher spring rate of the rear shock, because of the change of the levers and dynamics. I found the formulas on the internet. Now that I knew what needed to be done I started work on extending the swingarm which turned out to be pretty easy: I had an adapter fabricated (rather than cutting the swingarm and welding a piece of tube inbetween):
I considered the lower shockmount pretty flimsy and had this mount modified with real metal bracket rather than 'folded' sheetmetal:
Note the distance of the lower shock mount bracket to the end of the driveshaft, moved back by just under 1in as described in Part 1. The position of the shock mount is determined by the distance to the studs of the final drive and the diameter of the shock eye.
Next up was the driveshaft, a much more difficult undertaking: my machinist had basically two ideas:
Unfortunately our first attempt, the outer sleeve was interfering with the diminution of the swingarm and could not be made to work.
My Ohlins has a 95kg/mm spring installed. 70kg/mm is stock and for a 220lbs rider like me, a 85kg/mm is recommended. I added just over 10% to accommodate for the longer swingarm.
Part 3: Modifying the swingarm for tire clearance
Next, dry-fitting everything with the swingarm extension ... ouch, the tire rubes the swingarm! Hu? Upon closer inspection I realised I did not take into account the change of shape of the swingarm to accommodate the cush drive. So, the tire was rubbing there. Again, my machinist had the right idea: a piece of the swingarm was cut out and a steel plate welded back in. That fixed the problem.
Note the distance of the lower shock mount bracket to the end of the driveshaft. The position of the shock mount is determined by the distance to the studs of the final drive and the diameter of the shock eye.
Part 4: Modifying the rear wheel
Just for comparison, the 4-lug GS wheel and the 4-lug monolver cast wheel:
I have marked the area of concern with the red arrow. How does that show when you mount the GS rear hub to the monolever rear drive:
In my case, 21.5mm of the inner hub had to come off. I gave the job to my machinist, and he took excellent care of it. I won't bore you with any details, just because I don't have any:
Now, how does that fit all together?
That took care of just the hub fitting to the final drive. You need the 4 monolever wheel bolts which are shorter than the GS bolts. You also need to remove the final drive lower shock mount stud that is sticking out as can be seen above: it is screwed in so drilling a 1/4 hole and using a screwdriver to unscrew it will work. I had my machinist than cut it and machine a slot so that it can be used as a plug to be screwed in and out with a normal screw driver.
Now, the most important part is to make sure, that whatever tire size you're going to use is not rubbing at the swing arm. For the monolever conversion, I had the 18in rim laced approx. 1/4in off center to the left.
Part 5: Modifying the exhaust can
In order for the 18in rear wheel to pass the exhaust (despite the swingarm extension), the exhaust can had to be modified. My machinist just cut it flat off and welded a stainless piece in nicely:
Part 6: Fitting the rear end
Just perfect: the Kenda 270 that is currently mounted is a 4.50 x 18 with 121mm (4.76in) width and 27in diameter on the 2.50 x 18 rim @ 32PSI tire pressure. Clearances are as follows:
The rear brake was the only area where I needed 4 attempts (=designs) to get it right. Here are the three design that didn't work to my satisfaction:
That'll do.
I have done 8,000mls with this setup including a trip through the Colorado Rockies, New Mexico and Oklahoma on gravel and some other fairly intense stuff. The swingarm conversion held up nicely and the bike was rockstable at speed and on gravel. To be fair however this was all done with a 17in rear wheel with a 130/80-17 tire and a lot of offcenter lacing ... one of the not so successful design iterations (the Excel rim cracked) before I came closer to a G/S setup.
I have paid special attention to bike geometry when looking at all those mods and compensated the mods against the changes in geometry one-to-one so that in the end the bike's geometry is as close as possible to stock. Rake and Trail are as per the specification and the bike tracks superbly.
The above is a summary of the following webpages:

Spoked wheels on a 1985-1995 Monolver rear drive: http://www.stephenbottcher.net/BMW/rearconv.htm
I don't think I forgot anything. I can extend in areas if things aren't clear.
But as I told you kids: Don't try this at home!
I assume no liability or responsibility if you try those mods on your own bike with a different result. Some of these mods are not for the faint of heart and should only be performed by a professional.
Some of the above is fact, some is fiction, some is my personal imagination and some is just simple truth. [me]

X-lacing + Excel
Stephen - I know you've probably covered this before, but just to clarify:
In your (and perhaps Woody's) opinion, was the problem with the Excel rear inherent to mating it to a x-lace hub, or did it only show it's limits because you pushed the offset too far? i.e would you use an Excel rear again with the minimal offset you have now?
G(/)S ... what else!

Yeah, basically. X-lace hubs and center-lace with maximum offset didn't work out in this case, the exiting angles of the hub in conjunction with an 1/2in offset center-lace might have been too extreme. But I am sure there are some other gurus in either Europe or OZ/NZ that use a different technique and may be able to make it work. I think you have to do some drilling of the hub bores to correct exiting angle as stress relief and also account for offset when drilling the rim. With gong back to a 21/18 G/S-type configuration I kinda said good bye to the idea of a wide rear tire and just added some 1/4in offset to give it some space so even a 120 tire running slightly wider than normal won't give me trouble. Tires are cheaper too and there is a decent selection of street, gravel and dirt tires in 120-18.
Woody's/Zach was very good about the whole thing and got me something that I like in the end. He warranted his work and provided the labor for the rework, I provided the 18in X-lace hub.
Would I do it again? If it came up again, I probably would, if stress-releaving the hub bores and drilling rim specifically for decent offset and use of a x-lace hub would be included. Don't know if that guy is out there though.
Would I use another Excel rim with minimum offset? Don't think so. I convinced myself that the BMW x-lace design seems stronger and more resilient to side forces than an center-lace rim. To even underline the subjectivity of my statement: it appears beefier.
Some of the above is fact, some is fiction, some is my personal imagination and some is just simple truth. [me]

It's springtime, which means cats are falling from the sky. As high-rise residents open their windows to let in fresh air, cats invariably fall out, and landing feet-first is little help from the 10th story.
"Please get some screens, people!" says Louise Murray, director of medicine at the Bergh Memorial Animal Hospital.
Murray says the number of injured cats goes way up with the good weather, putting a strain on one of the most perishable supplies at animal hospitals: cat blood.
Several large companies supply the stuff, and charge up to $180 per unit. "Cat blood can be on back order for weeks," Murray says. "It's like being on a list for an organ."
Cat blood can only be stored for a short time30 days at the longestand comes in two types, A and B. Tranfusing the wrong kind is almost always fatal.
So to have enough of each type on hand, Bergh encourages local pet owners to bring in their pets in a public donation program.
Because they're small, felines can only donate small quantitiesfour tablespoons total, about the amount of a small espressoand that's only enough to save one cat life. (A greyhound can safely donate enough to give to four Chihuahuas.)
Nurse Michelle Falcon, the blood bank coordinator, screens prospective donors. She looks for young, fat, lethargic indoor cats; sticking a needle in the jugular, even with sedation, is not for every animal. After a battery of blood tests to ensure a feline is free of anemia, bacteria, and other viruses like FIVcommonly known as Feline AIDSa cat is approved and put on the donor list. Bergh only has 12 regular donors; the hospital wants more. "People just don't think about it," says Falcon. "They don't realize cats need blood transfusions too."
Another hospital in the city, Animal Medical Center, also has problems staying stocked, but keeps its own supply of donors on hand, 20 cats, all abandoned by former owners. Once fully screened, the cats give blood once every six weeks. After two years of service, the hospital puts the felines up for adoption. "There's a lovely lady who plays with them and feeds them and takes them out," assures an anxious-sounding spokesman for the hospital.
Besides a nice little shaved square on the neck, which Falcon calls "the badge of honor," donor cats get some other perks. "They get something yummy and fishy when they wake up," says Falcon. Pet parents get incentives, too: Donor cats at Bergh get free check-ups, vaccinations, and blood tests. Owners can also get their cats microchipped, to help locate them if they run away.
But it's not the freebies that persuaded Jaime-Faye Bean to volunteer her 11-pound cat, Basha, to donate blood (his little sister, Booma, weighing in at seven pounds, didn't make the cut). Bean said she does it because she likes knowing that her cat has done something good for felinekind. One time Basha's blood was used for a kitten undergoing chemotherapy. The cancer sufferer didn't make it, but another unit of Basha's blood saved a starved kitten, which was rescued by humane law-enforcement officers on the Animal Precinct television show. "I think it's great," says Bean. "He's helping other cats."
The process only takes an hour from start to finish, with the cat knocked out cold from a light dose of anesthesia. The effects wear off quickly. "He might be a little tired," Bean says of Basha, "but when I get him home, he bounces right back."
Meanwhile, as spring temperatures continue to rise outside and inside the hospital, there is only one satchel of cat blood left in the basement-level cooler. "I'm running low on my stores," Falcon says as she sits, waiting in the donation room for a fat orange cat named Brier to show.

In 24 matches across all competitions so far, it's fair to say Tottenham Hotspur are having a fairly inconsistent start to their 2014/15 campaign. Need proof? Here's what the season has looked like so far:
Yeah, that's pretty erratic.
However if you were to read the headlines, browse fan forums or soak in the Twittersphere, you might be inclined to think this season has been an utter disaster for Spurs.
But has it been? Admittedly, things haven't exactly been sterling. Rather, things have been much like they have for the past few seasons: a cycle of ups and downs that can't seem to be broken.

Regular, relevant and informative Blog posts. I know you have probably heard "fresh content" is important and you may think that means changing the words around once in a while, but that isn't it at all.
My experience with my own Sacramento Web Design SEO clients is that they don't have the time, hate writing or just don't want to deal with this. I'm here to tell you, regular blog posts is a huge reason why I am currently in the number one spot in Google and have been here consistently for over a year. I post, post, post. I post about anything Website, SEO, Small Business and Social Media related. I have a few blog posts that get found by people all over the world. I have information people are looking for.

How SEO can help your business grow

You may not have a high-tech company, or you may have relied mostly on personal referrals and foot traffic to your business in the past.

The days of simply having a website because it gives you credibility are gone. Having a website doesn't mean much if it is not coming up in the search results where people are looking for your products or services. If isn't coming up on the first few pages, it may as well not exist.
More than just keywords
There is a misconception that SEO is nothing more than manipulating keywords and stuffing awkward phrases into a web page. These old tactics may have worked in the past, but the search engines are becoming more sophisticated with every passing year. I understand the importance of relevant, quality content that gets your page recognized as worthy of the first page of the search engine results. I also know the back-end of web design, the invisible layer of data that people don't see when they are reading the page. My team and I can make your page more likely to show up in search results by adjusting just a few words of content and the meta tags that you can't see on your website pages. We also offer full re-design services.

Letter to the Editor: Old-timers pay attention
George T. Weir, Jacksboro
I finally reached the age that those fifty years younger than I, call me an old-fogey or an old-timer and that I'm out of touch. But I beg to differ. We old-timers pay a great deal of attention to the woes of the world and we are concerned.
The nation is laser focused on gun control and how we ensure the citizens can be protected from crazed people who are hell bent on killing.
The answer to this problem is complicated at the least, but there are some simple steps that can be taken, namely crack down on the violent films that our children spend too much of their time watching.
Young minds are pliable and are easy to be captured by the videos and films that exploit violence and bloodshed.
Guns are dangerous, but the crazed minds holding the guns are more dangerous. Yes, I grew up watching Roy Rogers and Dale Evans and yes they wore guns, but, they were always on the side of justice and obeying the law.
But now there is a blurred line between the good guy and the bad guy — seems to be whomever is still alive at the end is the hero. Our youth need their heroes just as we did in my day, but as I remember, our heroes fought for law and order.
The powers that be can regulate guns by making more laws, but the act of killing starts in the mind.

iHerb Customer Reviews
I bought this for my 8 yr old who has bad eczema. I have only used it a few times and I can see the difference this salve has made. The only thing I do not like is the smell which is a bit strong and not so nice but then it helps with my son's skin, so I will stick to it.
my skin looks normal from ezcema

Hartford — It has been virtually impossible to glean very much from the third-ranked UConn women since the unthinkable.
You know. When they actually lost a game.
In the wake of the loss to No. 2 Notre Dame almost two weeks ago, the Huskies have been largely nondescript, defeating Georgetown and Marquette before their 72-58 win over No. 15 Louisville at the XL Center Tuesday night.
UConn (15-1, 3-1) was never threatened.
Louisville (14-4, 2-2), despite its ranking, didn't have many impressive wins on its resume, save perhaps an early season victory over No. 20 Texas A&M.
Stefanie Dolson led the Huskies with 16 points and nine rebounds while Bria Hartley, who had some ankle issues entering the game, had 16 points and seven rebounds. Kelly Faris scored 13 and Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis had 12.
UConn played without freshman Breanna Stewart, who is nursing an injured ankle. UConn coach Geno Auriemma said he expects Stewart to play Saturday against Syracuse.
"It was going to be one of those games where we had to make plays against pressure," Auriemma said. "Louisville plays hard and physical and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that."
Hartley missed six of her first seven three-point attempts and turned it over four times in the first half with zero assists.
Faris, who leads the nation in assist-to-turnover ratio, also turned it over seven times in the game with seven assists.
Hartley, however, made her first three-pointer of the second half with 18 minutes left that gave the Huskies a 42-27 lead.
Caroline Doty and Dolson followed with baskets to give UConn a 46-30 lead with 15:49 left.
Louisville launched a modest rally that got the game as close as 11 (48-37) with 12:10 remaining. But Mosqueda-Lewis answered with a jumper to make it 50-36.
Louisville never got it into single digits.
This was the first of three straight home games for the Huskies, whose growth since Notre Dame will be measured next week. Following a home game Saturday afternoon against Syracuse, UConn plays No. 4 Duke at Gampel Pavilion in the women's rendition of "Big Monday" on ESPN2.
Auriemma said after the Notre Dame game that he'd like to play Dolson more in the low post instead of the high post, believing his team needs a stronger presence under the basket. It has helped that sophomore forward Kiah Stokes has returned (she missed the Notre Dame game).
Stokes played 10 minutes against Georgetown and 19 against Marquette.
Stokes entered the game for the second time with 13:01 remaining after Dolson was whistled for her third foul. Dolson nearly earned her fourth — a non-call that had Louisville coach Jeff Walz protesting — before Auriemma decided on Stokes.
Stokes finished with six rebounds, three blocks and two points.
UConn has rebounded the ball better lately, evidenced by Tuesday's 40-29 advantage. UConn outrebounded Louisville 29-16 in the first half alone.
The Huskies held Louisville to 31 percent shooting in the first half and forced 13 turnovers en route to taking a 37-23 lead at the half.

Not sure I have much to add to 200 reviews, but I would only add that you can be super lazy and they still turn out great. I whisked together microwaved butter and brown sugar (too lazy to find my handmixer, plus I only wanted to wash 1 bowl). I added (frozen) sweetened coconut and (frozen) slivered almonds, no toasting or defrosting. I only had about 1/3 the chocolate chunks, so I substituted the remainder of chocolate with Hershey's cinnamon chips. WOW! I did reduce the granulated sugar and added 1 cup of craisins.flag if inappropriate
My husband loves these cookies, with some of the modifications that I have made. First, as recommended by other reviewers, I use sweetened coconut and omit the white sugar. Second, I always add extra vanilla. Third, I usually use pecans, since walnuts make my mouth itch. Fourth, I omit the chocolate chips altogether.(primarily because I makes the best chocolate chip cookies with a recipe that I created, so I wanted something different....) I sometimes sub out half the flour for whole wheat, giving the cookies an even nuttier flavor and slightly different texture. Bottom line, hubby loves these because they are not too sweet the way I make them....... The dough does freeze beautifully......flag if inappropriate
Yum. Would not change a thing.flag if inappropriate
These were disappointing - Just OK (and they have all of my favorite ingredients)! I tried several times to make it right, but they were never ideal. The coconut and oatmeal are too similarly textured and make a mucky cookie. The coconut taste does not come through (I even tried toasting the coconut in one batch). The almonds also get lost in the mix - maybe pecans or macadamias would be better? Also tried a batch with sweetened coconut with only 2 TB sugar - but they were not sweet enough this way. They seem to also need more salt. Will probably just start fresh with a different recipe. A good recipe shouldnt take this much work to make perfect!flag if inappropriate
These are delicious. I followed the recipe exactly except I used walnuts because that was what I had on hand. I thought the unsweetened coconut was great and would differ from other reviewers who liked sweetened better. The larger cookies held together better than some smaller ones I tried--there could be a bit less chocolate and nuts in order for them to be less crumbly but we loved them!flag if inappropriate
Fantastic! I took advice of many previous reviewers: sweetened coconut, no granulated sugar, extra chocolate chips. Also, I used whole wheat flour, REALLY dark (85%) chocolate, and added several handfuls of finely chopped, mixed, dried fruit. I used parchment paper and let them cool in the pan for added crispness.flag if inappropriate
An absolute favorite in our family. Always put a sprinkling of kosher salt on top of each cookie, though--it makes all the difference.flag if inappropriate
My new favorite cookie recipe. The texture and denseness was perfect and everyone loved them! I followed the advice of others and used sweetened coconut and skipped the granulated sugar. The coconut toasts fast so watch it closely in the oven. I used chocolate chips - Guittard. I skipped the nuts because I prefer to bake cookies without nuts when baking for a crowd. You may want to experiment with the baking temperature on your oven, 350 at 15 minutes seemed ideal for mine. The dough freezes well, I made a batch a week ahead and then thawed in the fridge and baked them.flag if inappropriate
Among the best cookies I've ever made. Be warned that they are not the sturdiest (as I learned when my four-year-old ate one in the car--melted chocolate everywhere!). Such a delicious combination of flavors.flag if inappropriate
Easy and delicious! They always gets raves. I use 60% chocolate and don't use any nuts. Mmmmmm...flag if inappropriate

If the diagnosis is inconclusive on the basis of the newborn screen, your pediatrician may want to repeat levels but will usually start on thyroid hormone pending confirmation, especially if the infant has signs and symptoms suggesting this very serious condition.
Finally, accurate diagnosis is essential thus your pediatrician may want to order imaging studies and more sensitive blood tests to rule out any other cause for hypothyroidism.
Best Wishes!

Q: My 11 year old daughter was recently diagnosed with scoliosis. I have recently been reading a lot about specific yoga therapies to assist in preventing the degree of curvature from progressing. Is there anything to this? – Deborah from Coconut Creek, FL
A: Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine estimated to affect approximately 2 % of the American population. Depending on the degree of curvature your physician may recommend observation, bracing, or in severe cases, surgery.
Many factors affect the severity of scoliosis including genetics, skeletal age, nutritional status, neurologic system maturity, and the presence of illnesses or certain endocrine diseases. The majority are usually related to heritable causes, and in most cases do not progress beyond adolescence when immature bones become fully developed.
In reviewing the literature for the applicability of yoga to the treatment of scoliosis, I was astonished at the lack of scientifically designed studies measuring its effects. I do know that its use is gaining more traction.
A sensible treatment plan would probably include input from your orthopedist because of the gradually progressive nature of scoliosis. They may recommend other therapies that are proven to delay or halt the progression of the abnormal curvature.
While not all yoga moves would be appropriate in the management of scoliosis, some gentle posture training, stretching, and exercises that would not place undue strain on the abnormal curvature may be used as adjuncts to conventional treatments.

The Jeffries reunion was Oct. 9-10 at Sportsman Lake.
Last week, Lindsey Burgess came in our office looking for an article about her dad, Bobby Rogers, that was published on April 24, 1996. Bobby passed away Sept. 24.
It brought back some good memories – about Bobby and my dad, Donald Gene Powell, who died in 2003. I thought I'd run it again just for the hay of it.
He has a habit of looking at his feet when he talks. But when he finishes a sentence, he looks up quickly – looks you straight in the eye – and smiles.
In a few weeks, all LaRue County High School students will receive laptops through the district's 21st Century Learning Initiative.
The "laptop rollout" will take place Saturday, Oct. 16, according to LCHS Principal Paul Mullins.
"We will begin with a brief meeting in the gym and then the students will be directed to designated areas for distribution," said Mullins. "Over the next week of school, students will receive extensive training on how to use the laptops and the rules ... for care and ownership."
Senior Citizens music
The Senior Citizens Center, 112 N. Walters Ave., Hodgenville, has music with the Charlie Riggs Band at 6:30 p.m. every Saturday. Musicians and singers are welcome. For more information, call 358-4311 or e-mail email@example.com.
Daily events
Many believe that we are living in the last days. There are wars and rumors of wars with news of floods and natural disasters filling our television screens and newspapers. Such things are cited in the Bible as signs of the second coming of Christ.
Most of us want spiritual understanding. We want to know more about God's word. But we aren't willing to pursue it any further than listening to a few sermons or rushing through 10 minutes of Bible reading.
Often our failure to understand God's word is due to our unwillingness to invest time and energy in persistent, serious Bible study.
If you really want to understand Scripture, consider following a focused and systematic plan of study.
Make a commitment to apply to your daily life whatever truth you learn.
The LaRue County Public Library has several new books and DVDs for adults and young adults.
They include:
• The Postcard Killers by James Patterson. Patterson teams up with European bestselling author Liza Marklund to create a vacation thriller. NYPD detective Jacob Kanon is on tour of Europe's most gorgeous cities, but he is seeing the sites through the eyes of his daughter's killer.
The old city hall building has a new owner.
On Saturday, the small frame house on Lincoln Boulevard was sold at public auction to Bobby Dobson and Wayne Dobson for $60,000 plus 10 percent seller's commission, according to City Clerk MaDonna Hornback.
The building, which once housed a retail business, was used as city hall for many years. Three years ago, Lincoln Bicentennial funding provided the means to transform the old First Baptist Church into a combined city hall and civic center.
The Magnolia Elementary School time capsule will be opened in 2025 as originally planned.
The time capsule will be dug up from the old school grounds this week and reburied at Abraham Lincoln Elementary School.
MES third- and fourth- graders buried the capsule in 2000, prior to the consolidation of MES and Buffalo Elementary School.

Off the Wall's 'Gigi' retains its charm
Opening in 1958, "Gigi" won nine Oscars, including best picture. Opening in 1973, a stage adaptation - using the same enchanting songs (and four new ones) by Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe - closed after 103 performances.
I didn't see the Broadway production, so I can't tell you what went wrong. But since I have seen the current production of "Gigi" being directed by Dale Gutzman at Off the Wall Theatre, I can state with certainty that Broadway ought to give this chestnut another look. »Read Full Article(2)

He is best person in the worldâŠusually
The 2010 Nobel prizes were announced this week and have managed to remain largely out of controversy.
Last year Barrack Obama won the Nobel Prize for Peace. It seems to have been awarded because the Nobel Committee really, really believed that he is superman and him changing the world was a foregone conclusion.
This time around they have taken a step backwards and stuck to the traditional approach of giving the prize to someone who has already done something to further all mankind.
The 2010 Nobel Prize for Peace has been awarded to Liu Xiaobo. A Chinese human rights activist who is currently incarcerated because he dared to tell the Chinese government to give itâs own people some rights and a little democracy.
Tragically he probably wonât even be aware that he won the prestigious award since he is cut off from the outside world in jail. But as Liu probably knows â itâs the thought that counts.
Image: Mr. Thorbjoern Jagland, chairman of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, holds a photograph of jailed Chinese dissident Liu Xiaobo who is the recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize for 2010 at the Nobel Institute in Oslo, Friday October 8, 2010.

Reflections on the lectionary readings by pastors, preachers, and biblical scholars

Each Monday we publish Sunday's Coming, an email-only post on the upcoming readings, written by our current Living by the Word columnist.

Sunday, August 6
Exodus 16:2-4,9-15; John 6:24-35
As Jesus speaks and acts in John's Gospel, the people hear him at one level while he seeks to move them to a deeper level. When Jesus feeds the 5,000, for example, the crowd, stomachs filled, rushes to make him king. Jesus flees. God wants the hungry fed, but there is a deeper hunger and a better bread.
John 6:1-21
The feeding of the 5,000 is the only miracle recorded in all four Gospels. (Somebody once said that next to Homer's Odyssey the Bible is the "eatingest" book in the world.)
