Savoury party snacks

I've been invited to one of my best friends xmas party's this weekend, and she has a new born, so I offered to help with the food.
It's for afternoon nibbles and she said that she can take care of the swete things, but could I prepare some savoury snacks. I have no idea what to make.
I have two little ones of my own and am time poor, so was thinking I'd take 3 different things. One of which would be mini quiches (I'll just buy them and heat them in her oven). Has anyone got any tasty / fast / easy sugestions???
I have gone through all my cook books and there is nothing in this area at all!

Buy premade tartlet shells from Coles/Woolies
Fill with a mix of chopped tomato/onion/basil and dress witha couple of drops of balsamic vinegar
Fill others with a small scoop of cream cheese and some smoked salmon
Fill others with some roast beef (just get some slices from the supermarket deli) and a small dollop of horseradish cream

I am making pulled pork sliders for dinner tonight. They are often served in the States as a savoury snack on dinner rolls, rather than a fullsized bun.
Basically you slow-cook a piece of pork for 8-10 hours till the meat pulls apart with forks and pile it on a roll. Easy and substantial.
Other options are your traditional heat and serve food from the frozen section of the supermarket or an antipasto platter.

A variety of dips with some biscuits, bread and veggie sticks.
Antipasto platter.
Home made sausage rolls are easy, and always popular!

Chicken wings? Pizza scrolls, sausage rolls, antipasto plate (cold meats, cheeses, olives, pickled veg etc), vege muffins, sandwich platter, chips n dips, wraps cut into small portions, toasted Lebanese bread with hummus, spring rolls or other frozen dim sum type stuff.

sandwich platter,
Actually sandwiches are a great idea. Buy a pre-made chicken, make a chicken and mayo filling, get some good bread and voila.

My mum does up one which is quite simple really.
Basically you get mini won-ton wrappers, pop them into a mini cupcake tin & bake them in the over at 180 degrees for 10 minutes - or unti golden.
For the filling
Mash up 2 very ripe avocado's mix with the juice of half a lemon, 1/2 teaspoon of tabasco sauce & 1 finely diced spanish onion.
Add into the won-ton wrappers & top with a quarter of a cherry tomato
i think the wrappers come in a packet of 80 - it's quite a cost effective dish as well

Cheese & Vegemite scrolls!
Posted 14 December 2012 - 05:30 PM
So crass and very 70's but, what about little volovants? You can buy the little cases and all you would need to do is make a mournay filling. I wouldn't normally think of them but considering you don't have a lot of time yourself I would be combining part ready-made with part homemade.
- Cheats sausage rolls - puff pastry and little chipolata sausages. Grab a jar of chutney to serve
- Finger sandwiches. Use easy fillings like shaved roast beef from the deli, sundried tomatoes, rocket or baby spinach and a nice soft cheese like Camembert or Brie. Other fillings could include a finely chopped BBQ chook, whole egg mayo and cress or alfalfa
There's a few suggestions for you.

"Come, Allan," said the girl at length, calmer than he. "Let's see what we've got here to do with.

You may be an engineer, and know how to build wireless telegraphs and bridges and--and things; but when it comes to home--building--"
"I admit it. Well, lead on," he answered; and together they explored the upper rooms. The sense of intimacy now lay strong upon them, of unity and of indissoluble love and comradeship. This was quite another venture than the exploration of the tower, for now they were choosing a home, their home, and in them the mating instinct had begun to thrill, to burn.

Second in the series, picks up almost directly after the first book leaves off. This time, we learn that the dynamic duo are not the sole survivors of the presumably global catastrophe.
By now, the protagonist has grown to mythological proportions, with nothing impossible at his hands. A contemporary MacGyver if you will, who is starting to develop a touch of megalomania. "The girl" by now is reduced to a one-dimension paperdoll who's sole purpose is a sounding board for the protagonists monologues, and to stare adoringly at him.

Tablets are everywhere at CES this year, to no one's surprise. Asus is showing off its Transformer Prime, which is receiving an early update to Ice Cream Sandwich. Android 4.0 was supposed to be pushed out to the device on January 12, but the update has already been released, and our sample just finished installing it. We've also learned that an ICS update is coming to the original Transformer in the February/March timeframe.
The big news for the Transformer family is a new version of the Prime with a high-density display. Yep, Asus has beaten Apple to the punch, at least publicly. The Transformer Prime TF700 features a 10" IPS panel with a 1920x1200 display resolution. In addition to being able to show HD movies in all their glory, the high-res screen should make scaled fonts and images look especially clean and crisp. The individual pixels are difficult to see even with the screen inches from one's face.
Apart from the upgraded display, the TF700 is very similar to the existing model. The ultra-bright SuperIPS+ mode remains, as does the Tegra 3 SoC. Asus has made a couple of changes to the chassis, taking the spin out of the aluminum back panel and inserting a plastic strip that's supposed to improve Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS reception. The Prime's front-facing 1.2MP camera has also been replaced with a 2MP unit to enable 1080p video conferencing.
This latest addition to the Transformer family is set to become available midway through the second quarter of 2012. Asus tells us the TF700 will cost $100 more than the existing model, which will continue to be sold after the TF700 arrives. After seeing the screen in person, that premium seems entirely reasonable. 1920x1200 offers well over double the number of pixels in the current Prime's 1280x800 display. With a 2048x1536 iPad 3 rumored to be in the cards, it will be interesting to see how the TF700 fares against Apple's next tablet.

Orlando City SC One Step Closer to MLS Dream
It has been an eventful year for USL-PRO side and 2013 champions Orlando City SC. Now Orlando's main focus is to become the latest MLS expansion team. On Monday, the club announced the dates that voting on their stadium funding will occur. The city of Orlando and Orange County (Fla.) Commissioners are set to vote on the approval of funds for a new downtown, multi-purpose soccer stadium on Oct. 7 and Oct. 22 respectively.
If both of these groups approve the funds, then Orlando can finalize discussions with MLS Commissioner Don Garber and other executives on becoming MLS' latest squad. Recently, more than 15,000 people signed a petition calling for the approval of funding Orlando's proposed stadium plan.
I am totally for Orlando joining MLS and having the league return to the southeast. Orlando's fans are passionate and have turned out in big numbers this year. They will be a welcomed sight to the league where many teams like Chivas USA have trouble drawing in the fans. Additionally, there is no reason why MLS should not return to the southeast.
If I was in charge of MLS, then Orlando would have been added before NYCFC. But I'm not, so I have to live with it. However, MLS would be stupid not to add Orlando once they have secured funding.
In addition, the proposed stadium can be used for other functions. This will further help strengthen the local Orlando economy. Orlando is one step closer to securing funding, and we will know after both meetings whether or not Orlando City has secured stadium funding or not.

The Tom Dougherty Blog
Tom Brady and the culture of cheating
There are more scenarios to play out for final judgment, but it sure is becoming difficult to believe that Tom Brady didn't direct balls to be deflated for last season's AFC Championship Game and that he did cooperate with the ensuing investigation.
That's where were are at the moment with Deflategate.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell upheld the four-game suspension after Brady's appeal, charging the NFL star with destroying his cell phone the day before or the day of him being questioned by investigators.
That's the main sticking point when it comes, not in federal court where the players' union will sue the NFL over the appeal process, but in the court of public opinion. The NFL said "Mr. Brady knew about, approved of, consented to, and provided inducements and rewards" to equipment managers to deflate the balls. That means the phone was evidence and the timing of its destruction is suspicious at best.
Brady says he always destroys his old phone when he gets a new one (he switched from an Android to an iPhone 6, so he's acquired good taste). But the timing makes that hard to believe. (And the NFL says that Brady still has an older phone he didn't destroy.)
Once the lawyers have had it (and who knows how long that process will take), many of us will start to wonder about the brand of Tom Brady. I'm not talking legacy because I still see this as a minor offense and I believe Brady is one of the greatest quarterbacks ever, regardless.
But the story of Tom Brady has always had its underdog charm. He shared the QB position in college with a baseball prospect, was drafted alarmingly low (sixth round) by the New England Patriots, become the Lou Gehrig to Drew Bledsoe's Wally Pip by winning four Super Bowls and married a supermodel.
That's the American dream, isn't it?
Where we go from here.
Now, with the shadow of Spygate (the Patriots were penalized for filming opponents' signals in 2007), we wonder if Brady and the Patriots foster a culture of cheating. For the fanatic anti-Patriot fan, that's a no-brainer yes.
For the rest of us, who fall in the middle, there will always be that cloud of suspicion, whether Brady wins the lawsuit or not. The damage has been done.
We probably expect our sport idols to be perfect too much and for them to ignore their competitive nature when we deem it appropriate. But if the brand of Tom Brady (and the New England Patriots) is shadowy, then to repair the brand means being the opposite of that. To be transparent.
Brady has responded on Facebook, refuting the NFL's claims, but it doesn't quite hold water. (For one thing, the explanation for destroying the phone is hard to believe.)
The courts will take over now but it would behoove Brady, if he is interested in repairing his public image (and he may not), to be candid, open and honest. He will no doubt be lawyered up for the moment, but he's still got some work to do.
Gordon Ramsay may flame out
There once was a time when Gordon Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares was my favorite show on television.
But then Gordon Ramsay, like dandelions, started popping up everywhere. This is terribly unfortunate because, just like dandelions, the first few Gordon Ramsay shows were pleasant enough, but after a while they were as annoying as weeds.
I'm not going to bash Gordon Ramsay. I like the guy. There have been times in Kitchen Nightmares where you can see a deep level of earnestness and compassion in him. He cheers on the underdog and praises the hard work of individuals who might not always receive it. He also, as we know, tells it like it is.
But why is he everywhere?
Gordon Ramsay should be cooking more.
There's this video circulating on Facebook of Ramsay cooking the "perfect steak."
It's intoxicating, isn't it? Watching it makes me feel like I am viewing a master who can effortlessly achieve his goals. That's a special thing to behold.
Why then isn't Gordon Ramsay treating his brand as carefully?
Instead, we are inundated with formulaic shows where Ramsay is yelling all the time about scallops not being cooked (Hells' Kitchen) or of him making cliche restaurant changes (the Americanized version of Kitchen Nightmares) or, his most commendable foray, leading a competition of home cooks (Master Chef).
Gordon Ramsay is overexposed.
Stealing Share has written a great deal about repairing an ailing brand. Sometimes, the process involves brand repair. In this case, Ramsay is overexposed and will eventually flame out at this rate. It's time to step back.
Gordon Ramsay and his management team should consider his brand clearly and fix permissions that limit acceptance or create barriers. Limitations like television shows that expose him as a cartoon-like hot head and have the same outcomes, year in and year out.
It's time for Gordon Ramsay to cut the fat. Here's what I think he should do: have one first-rate show doing what he does best: cook.
Fiat Chrysler hack disturbing in many ways
Now this Fiat Chrysler hack is a little scary. Fiat Chrysler is recalling its new Jeep Cherokees after the company found that its Internet connectivity can be hacked.
The uConnect system, which allows drivers to control their entertainment and navigation abilities while driving, is being recalled to update the software.
This is only the beginning. Auto sales are rising in 2015 for several reasons. Cars that most of us have kept going longer than we normally would have are now being turned in for newer models, consumers are getting savvier about buying online (and dealerships are getting smarter about how to transform that into on-lot sales) and new automobiles are being outfitted with new technology.
Sales had dipped over the last decade, primarily because the manufacturers gave consumers few reasons to trade in their own vehicles that were running just fine. Messaging, as we've seen in our latest automotive study, is all so similar that consumers can't distinguish one brand from another. (Which is why there is little brand loyalty and some inertia.)
Technology, having a vehicle that's as tapped into the Internet as your laptop, has been the driving force for new trade-ins. Now, consumers have a reason to upgrade from their technology-less vehicles.
The problem with all this new technology.
But there are two issues looming that automakers must consider. For one, as the Fiat Chrysler hack has shown, security will become an initial differentiating force as consumers want to make sure that their information and control are protected. Don't be surprised if you start seeing ads in the coming months that hit on the idea of Internet security.
That's all fine and good. But, eventually, technology and security will become table stakes, i.e., what you need to even play in the market. Pretty soon, all new brands will have up-to-date technology and powerful security. Those values will become as common as low gas mileage is today.
That means automotive manufacturers will be left in the same place they were heading into this year: Having nothing that provides a true choice among all the competition.
McDonalds all day breakfast is a Band-Aid
McDonalds has released an internal memo to its franchises saying that they should prepare for the possibility of an October rollout of a limited-breakfast all-day menu. It is no secret that McDonalds has been struggling the last few years as consumers move to other options in a never-ending sea of fast food and quick service options (as well as healthier options). McDonalds has, at least in my estimation, also done a poor job in marketing (anyone need more lovin?) and positioning its brand as both relevant and important.
This memo to its franchises, though not definite, just feels like McDonalds doing more of the same – grasping at anything with no sense of direction for its brand.
Based upon some success in San Diego and Nashville, the McDonalds all day breakfast menu will be offered, citing that "Our customers love it — they've been asking for it for years…"
McDonalds hopes this new menu will help its sagging sales but this kind of thinking is exactly why McDonald's is failing to regain its lost traction. Think about what McDonald's is saying when it rationalizes this step by saying, "Our customers love it — they've been asking for it for years…"
McDonalds is saying that people, its customers, have been asking for it for years – the people that already are choosing McDonalds. So I ask you, are those people who are asking for it going to a competitor for fast-food breakfast at lunch or dinner? Likely not.
Breakfast all day is a temporary fix.
Locally, Sonic is the only all-day full menu breakfast drive-thru restaurant and, while it has some success with breakfast items later in the night, its focus on lunch and dinner is certainly on traditional items with emphasis on shakes and beverages.
I guess McDonalds' customers could go to a Denny's, IHOP, Waffle House, Cracker Barrel or the like but that would mean no drive-thru. My hunch is that most of those asking for it are coming in at 11 am, trying to order an Egg McMuffin, or the late night crowd who want an order of fries and a breakfast burrito.
While a move like this will certainly give McDonalds a marginal boost in some markets, it will not rescue McDonalds from its sagging sales. When you throw in the operational complication, this is a recipe for failed expectations on the part of McDonalds management. The problems of McDonalds are deeper than offering breakfast at other day parts. The once vital McDonalds brand has failed to remain relevant, vital and important. Breakfast at lunch or dinner will not make the brand.
Spotify mixtape a fear-based decision
I'm one of those people who must have his music playing whenever I'm working, driving or lounging around the house.
I feel connected with the music I listen to; it makes me feel a bit more lucid and creative.
Spotify, Tidal and now Apple Music have all been a part of my listening experience.
As of now, I am sold on Apple Music. It's fully integrated with all of the devices I use, the catalog is extensive and the musical suggestions it offers (playlists and albums) just keep improving the more I use the service.
Spotify once held the throne for me, but no longer. And my hunch is a lot of folks are starting to feel just like me with its services.
Spotify is making fear-based decisions.
This isn't a left field statement. Yesterday, I read that Spotify was making a weekly, personalized mixtape for its users.
The idea behind the Spotify mixtape is to provide users with a tailored list of songs that will appear every Monday. The songs might be similar to those you are already listening to or they might be a slight stretch in a certain direction of your taste preferences.
This is a great concept, but I can't help but think it's in reaction to the wonderful preference algorithm Apple Music has in place.
Here is the problem. Spotify has 75 million users worldwide. Even with such lofty numbers, it hasn't been able to pinpoint user preferences the way Apple Music has.
Fear-based decisions are often decided when one company is seeking share from the market leader. You would expect Spotify would envision itself as the market leader, but its actions suggest it believes that Apple Music is about to become the leader. Hence, the copying of Apple's preference built playlists.
The writing isn't on the wall for Spotify, but a re-thinking (a rebrand perhaps?) seems to be of the utmost importance in response to the market changes.
Trump presidential bid nonsense
I've been avoiding writing anything about the Donald Trump presidential bid because I thought his run would quickly burn itself out. I still think it will, but polls suggest he is still leading the Republican Party nomination in this early stage.
Trump has always been a self-promoter of the highest order and his blustering comments (on immigration, the Iran deal and now John McCain) are part of his brand. What his son, Eric, recently said was that The Donald "is fed up with the nonsense."
It's easy to say that Donald Trump himself is nonsense, but fringe candidates (and, yes, Trump is a fringe candidate) appeal to a relatively small segment that are angry about being ignored.
Remember, Ross Perot? He was an independent candidate in 1992, a media darling who captured the attention of the economically disenfranchised who thought a billionaire could fix the country's economic problem.
Eventually, he burned out and Bill Clinton won over incumbent George HW Bush because Perot's appeal – while strong – simply didn't appeal to enough people. (And many just thought he was a kook.)
The Republicans (and media) are at fault.
Trump's advantages are that he is well known (even if not particularly beloved) and the race for the Republican nomination has an absurd 15 candidates. (Or is it 16 now? I lose track.) It is a scattered Republican market, if you will. That means few, if anyone, knows what the Republican Party stands for today. It looks lost with so many candidates running, suggesting that no candidate thinks the other is worthy of the nomination. There's simply not one voice representing the party.
In essence, the other Republican candidates are trying to be for everyone, while Trump is saying who he is for and not for.
Trump then speaks to a minority (even if he says he represents the "silent majority) because there is no majority in the Republican Party. There's just fractures of populations.
Trump is the loudest here, and his brand has always been about being the loudest and most extravagant. It's there in his hotels, casinos and other real estate ventures. They are loud, with gold trimming and big lights with the name TRUMP blazed everywhere.
Sanity will eventually prevail and we'll look back at Trump's run as the mainstream media getting hoodwinked into playing his game. How many times can he go on the Today Show? Even The Huffington Post announcing that it will run Trump news in its entertainment section is playing into Trump's hands so he can say that is nonsense and people are out to get him.
Trump will not win the nomination and his comments will continue to be offensive. But he's doing exactly what he's always done. Playing up to the brand of Donald Trump.
Netflix Amazon movies coming to you
A new report states that live TV viewership has dropped 6% over the last year, which comes as a surprise to no one. Most of us just have to look inside our own homes to see that much of what we watch today is recorded, streamed or downloaded.
TV networks have joined the game by offering most of its shows online, either through on demand services or their own websites. The fact that those between the ages of 18-24 watched live TV 16% less than they did a year ago just proves that our entertainment habits are quickly changing.
In light of that, I'm beginning to wonder if streaming services like Amazon and Netflix are going to become the largest content producers in the landscape.
Hear me out. It's not just that both streaming services are producing their own TV shows, but they are also getting into the movie business. Netflix has already announced that its first feature, Beasts of No Nation (directed by True Detective Season 1 director Cary Fukunaga) will be shown in theaters and on Netflix on the same day later this year. It is only the first of a slate of movies Netflix will roll out the same way in the future.
Amazon may be even more aggressive in the movie department. It announced yesterday that Spike Lee's new movie, Chi-Raq, will be released in theaters, followed a month later on Amazon Prime. Like Netflix, it will be the first of many to come.
What interested me most about these maneuvers is what Ted Hope, who leads Amazon's film division, told the Hollywood Reporter.
"We're looking to make visionary work by visionary directors. I would say The Imitation Game, Birdman and The Grand Budapest Hotel are all totally in the zone. Prestige titles, the kind of movie that isn't for the teenaged audience."
Hope explained that audiences interested in prestige films are also the ones most likely to buy from the Amazon website (and become Prime members) so the movie push goes hand in hand with its retail business.
Why Netflix and Amazon are becoming movie studios.
The trend of Netflix Amazon movies is a smart move for both for different reasons. For Netflix, its business model is all about acquiring and producing content to attract new subscribers. (And Netflix is apparently doing very well with that.) For Amazon, it's to prompt Prime members to buy more products.
In addition, they fill a hole in the movie landscape. Superhero movies have taken over our movie screens. So much so that last week's Comic Con was treated as an important industry event along the lines of the Oscars and this weekend sees the opening of another Marvel product few have ever heard of: Ant-Man.
To get people out of their homes to watch a movie at a theater, the studios have to make each movie an event. Just like when, in the '50s, studios trotted out a host of biblical epics to combat the onset of television.
That kind of thinking leaves many of us out. It's not the big budget or, really, the low-budget movies that make up most of the classic films we adore. It's the middle-budget ones that aren't targeted to a 16-year-old boy.
That's where Amazon and Netflix are coming in. We are fast entering the period, if we are not already there, where we can simply cue up just about anything we want to see, including original content, at home.
To be a powerful brand, you have to state who you are for and, most importantly, who you are not for. In that sense, Netflix and Amazon are becoming even greater successes.
Amazon Prime Day spells doom for retailers
And now the price wars have begun! Amazon is celebrating its 20th anniversary today with an unprecedented Amazon Prime Day sale that sees products like a 32-inch TV going for $75 and Bose headphones for $80.
It's not only an anniversary for Amazon, but also an attempt to gain more Prime members (you can only take advantage of the sales if you are a member) and spike sales in a slow retail summer where sales industry-wide were down in both May and June.
That's all fine and dandy, as at least Amazon has reason to hold the sale because it can pin it on its anniversary. That makes it seem like a one-time event.
But that is hardly the case because other retailers are joining the fray with their own sales as a defensive strategy against Amazon. Walmart is discounting more than 2,000 items on its website today, while Best Buy will be holding a two-day sale later this month. Kohl's and Target have been in the price-slashing mode as well.
These sales are not going away.
For consumers, this is a boom. But, as most of you can guess, this means that July 15 (smack dab in the middle of the calendar year) will become the summer equivalent of Black Friday. The sales are here to stay.
The problem for retailers is that these sales are purely reactionary, doing very little to help them gain preference among shoppers. In fact, they are teaching consumers to wait on purchasing because the summer Black Friday sale will become an annual event.
Sales like this have always been a tactic to get consumers into the store (or, in this case, to get them to log onto the website) but it's strictly a short-term strategy.
It's also a steep slope to long-term failure. Fighting on price is always a loser's game unless you are Walmart (industry leader that owns low price) or Amazon (with its large inventory and online leadership).
For the rest, they will have taught consumers to only choose on price and not for what the value of offerings or because their brands are coveted.
No, sale numbers in August and September will plummet industry wide as consumers simply wait until the real holiday sales at the end of the year.
Then those retailers will wonder why their yearly sales figures were so low and what value they actually own. The answer is that today's sales just mean that retailers are to be only chosen based on low prices. That's the only value.

The idea that this company is worth $1 billion is pretty funny.
Who is Avondale? See an AvondalePartners, which is the official trademarked name and thus not the same as "Avondale."
Market cap is now over $700 million. Talk about frothy.
If your belief about a company's potential is based entirely on opinions from company press releases, you will eventually lose your shirt.
It yielded around 13% last year. Assuming revenue is flat in local currency, and there's a 60% decline in dollars, the dividend should be around 6% in 2015.
It's odd that the common yields more than the preferred.
Here's my reasoning. Many of the shale oil producers produce some natgas as a byproduct. If they shut down those wells, because cheap oil makes them unprofitable, that means a reduction in US natgas production. That pushes up the natgas price, which is good for producers that are mainly in natgas, like XCO (also SWN and COG).
Open-minded discussion, please....
Exco's assets are mostly natgas. Oil is a minor play for them, in the long run.
You had previously deducted operating expenses in your calculation.
The cost of keeping the lights on is an operating expense.
I'm mainly looking at who will be driven out of the game at around $65 oil. It looks like PWE will survive and then benefit once the high-cost producers close shop and the glut is reduced.
Am I reading this financial statement correctly, when I conclude that PWE's cost of production is around $22 per BOE?
It says:
$21 operating expenses
$1 transportaion
Two years ago, this stock had a market cap of $50 million and sold for $1.50. Now it has a market cap of $100 million, yet sells for less.
Figure it out yet?
From 2012-2103 it lost $10 million. From 2013-2014 it lost almost $20 million. It lost $5 million in the most recent quarter, and a few million in every quarter before that.
Its operating cash flow has been negative $10 million every year in recent memory.
Yet, it received TSA approval well over a year ago, which (we were told) was going to turn it into a skyrocket.
Figure it out yet?
Pump, dump, pump, dump......
The company was pawned to DMRJ a long time ago. There's nothing left for the common shareholder to claim. If you can't read the fine print in SEC reports, you shouldn't be investing.
I have a small position, at around $4.xx per share. Tempted to add more, but the current liabilities, compared to current assets, worries me in view of the very low gas prices. How is it going to maintain enough cash flow to stay liquid?
...this should be a penny stock. Why does it have a market cap of $400 million?
This company is flat broke.
Any thoughts on why a Pink Sheet stock with $61k in assets has a market cap of around $100 million?

Fleury, Letang on the ice at practice
Penguins/NHL Videos
» The Penguins' first practice after the All-Star break included their two players who participated in All-Star Weekend at in North Carolina. Goalie Marc-Andre Fleury and defenseman Kris Letang each took the ice Monday at Consol Energy Center less than 24 hours after playing in the All-Star Game at Raleigh's RBC Center on Sunday afternoon. Fleury said he "really didn't sweat a lot" over the weekend, and Letang added that "there wasn't any time to relax." However, both players wanted to get in a practice with the Penguins starting a stretch of four games tonight through Sunday. "Talking to both players, especially Marc, he felt like he did a lot of stuff, but not a lot of hockey stuff," coach Dan Bylsma said. "He wanted to get some work in to get back up to speed. He wanted to get on the ice and get some shots."
» The "mustache boy" for February is defenseman Zbynek Michalek, who succeeds forward Mike Rupp. Michalek lost the monthly shootout that determines which player must grow a mustache. This shootout included a believed-to-be-first for the competition: forward Craig Adams invoked "immunity" that he earned by winning an earlier shootout.
» Regional ratings for Penguins games broadcast on FSN Pittsburgh topped all U.S.-based NHL teams for 2010, according to the Sports Business Journal. The Penguins' rating was 8.0 - better than the Buffalo Sabres (6.3), Detroit Red Wings (3.9), Chicago Blackhawks (2.6) and Boston Bruins (2.3).
» The Penguins' AHL affiliate Wilkes-Barre/Scranton will pay tribute to the Steelers at its home game Friday against Manitoba. The Baby Penguins will paint the Steelers emblem at center ice, and fans will be encouraged to wear the jersey of their favorite Steelers player.

Expiration Date
The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width & height) of a package.

As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

Sleeping with your baby 'increases risk of cot death'
New mothers should be warned that sleeping with young babies is linked to a higher risk of cot death, health officials have said.
New mothers should be warned that sleeping with young babies is linked to a higher risk of cot death, health officials have said.
A leading child health doctor has welcomed plans to warn parents not to sleep alongside their babies as a way to reduce the 'absolute tragedy' of unexplained infant deaths.
Every case of unexplained infant death is an absolute tragedy for a family, and although rare, still claims the lives of around five babies each week - that's still five cases too many,
He said that although co-sleeping is safe most of the time, the risks are higher when the adult is very tired, drunk alcohol, used drugs or when they have taken medication which might sedate.
"To address this, we need to help ensure that all families have access to safe sleeping guidance and resources,"he said. "And because we know that vulnerable families are especially at risk of Sids, we need a targeted campaign to promote safe sleeping habits."

Sunderland hotels
Sunderland, UK
Once a murky, industrial city prior to the 1970s, Sunderland has been made over into a rather flashy and youthful college town with a pulsing urban nightlife and fashionable streets. Along the seafront is Seaburn Strip, which is packed with classy Italian, Thai and Indian restaurants, as well as stylish cafés and atmospheric pubs. The bars in Sunderland are open every night, and the alcohol is reactively cheap as they cater to a college crowd.
Sunderland Attractions
- Sunderland Museum & Winter Gardens
- Sunderland Glass Centre
- Herrington Country Park
Sunderland Activities
- Watch a Broadway show at Empire Theatre
- See a football game at the Stadium of Light
- Sunbathe at the Roker and Seaburn beaches
Sunderland Climate
Sunderland has fairly mild weather with low temperatures and plenty of rain year round. Summer highs peak at 19°C, and the months of June through August receive 12-15 cm of rain monthly. December through February are cold months with lows around 2-3°C, and November is the wettest month with 20 cm of rain.
Getting There & Around
The Durham Tees Valley, Newcastle International Airport and the Sunderland Central train station all service Sunderland, making travel from anywhere in the UK or overseas quite easy. If you prefer to drive, you will access the town using the A1(M) and A1 highways.
You can get around Sunderland cheaply using a city bus or taxi in town. The city has an extensive bicycle lane network as well.

Ex-NASA Scientists Speak Out On "Climate Change" Hysteria
Obviously, they will be branded heretics, personally denigrated, and said to be in the pay of Big Oil and Big Coal.
(Nature World News) The government is overreacting to a largely unreal threat of global warming and NASA isn't helping, states a report issued by The Right Climate Stuff (TCRS) research team.
Comprised largely of ex-NASA engineers and scientists, the team acknowledges in their report that "climate science is not one of our data technical specialties," but that, nonetheless, given their experience in their separate fields of physics, chemistry, geology, meteorology and others, they felt the need to speak out.
Recently retired James Hansen never had a degree in "climate", either.
Specifically, the report responds to what the group feels is unfounded pulpit pounding by certain NASA bureaus regarding a false damnation of global warming that is seen strictly the result of human sin in the form of carbon dioxide emissions.
"Many of us felt these alarming and premature predictions of a climate disaster with so little empirical data to support these claims, would eventually damage NASA's reputation for excellent and objective science and engineering achievement," the report states.
The group points out that the science is not settled in the least, that natural processes dominate the climate cycle (and are poorly understood), that CO2 lags behind temperature change by roughly 800 years, and
"Ergo, CO2 does not appear to be the throttle that controlled the temperature cycles of the last 700,000 years." Though, they argue, the temperature appears to affect the levels of CO2 – a concept that for many may feel like standing on one's head.
They go on to point out that Mankind does have other affects on the climate and environment through other aerosols, such as methane, along with land use (I've mentioned both many times in saying that Man is responsible for about 10-15 of the warming, much of which is perceived and localized). Much of what they are saying is that the changes to the climate, much of which are simply part of a natural weather pattern, are caused by unknown mechanisms which are mostly natural. The Sun. Water vapor. Land use. Shifting land patterns through geologic processes. Etc. Climate and earth forces are too dynamic to simply say "CO2 is the cause of this warm period".
Rather, they believe, "A potential global warming issue has been identified that should be treated as a potential problem for which root cause is not definitely known."
Is the current warming a potential problem? Sure. The same way a cool period is a problem. Same as if it became a hot period. There are also lots of benefits from all. Climate and weather will always happen, and will never conform to the flat-earth mentality of Warmists. Who still refuse to change their own behavior to match their rhetoric.

Enjoyed the day of our 30th anniversary
Today is our 30th anniversary. Time surely flies .... We were up at our normal hour, around 8. After our normal breakfast, took Djuna for our normal daily walk. Oh, boy!

We had planned to reach the town of Bangor (Maine) for the night, but after talking to an (American) woman during breakfast at the bnb decided to drop down to Belfast on the coast, because of the better scenery down there.

The drive was good and during a stop for gas & washroom, we joked about the 16 foot Canadian canoe stuck in the back of a pick-up truck. ...
