Military and Veterans Issues
"Fighting for Those Who Fought for Us!" ™
Most Americans have never served in the military. The majority of Americans have not been directly affected by the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The attorneys at Baker Williams have experienced most aspects of military life as an enlisted person, spouse or parent. Not only do we know the laws that benefit the members of our armed services we have been there ourselves. Our firm handles Veterans' Preference cases, USERRA, SCRA, Discharge Upgrades, Adverse Administrative Issues and more.
Veterans' Preference
Veterans' Preference provides a benefit to individuals who have served in the armed forces. The purpose of the act was to recognize the economic hardship and personal sacrifice of individuals who serve their country. Veterans' Preference is used in hiring and terminating individuals in State and Federal employment. Baker Williams attorneys represent veterans whose rights have been violated under the Veterans' Preference Act.
Frequently Asked Questions about Veterans Preference
USERRA Violations
Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act, more commonly known as USERRA, protects the employment rights of those who voluntarily or involuntarily leave their jobs for military service and certain types of service in the National Disaster Medical System. USERRA is meant to minimize the disadvantages that may be caused by service in the military. Virtually all employers, public and private, including the State and Federal governments are required to comply with USERRA. We represent servicemembers whose rights have been violated under USERRA.
Discharge Upgrade
There are many reasons why you may want to pursue an upgrade. You could be having trouble seeking employment, it could be preventing you from re-enlisting, maybe you are not able to get all of your veterans' benefits, and sometimes you just want to set the record straight. Whatever is motivating you to consider a discharge upgrade we may be able to help.

text: For today's chart we've chosen to take a look at Toll Brothers Inc (NYSE:TOL) because it is nearing an influencial level of resistance. As you can see from the chart below, the $24 mark has prevented the bulls from sending the price higher over the past few months and there i0s little reason to expect this story to change. We've also noticed that the stock is testing its 200-day exponential moving average, which has prevented a move higher since early 2007. We'll keep a bearish outlook on this stock until the price closes above the horizontal trendline ($24).

Farfalle with Zucchini
All pastas are not created equal. Did you know this? I'm a real noodle aficionado, and while I'd never turn down any type of pasta dish, there are just some shapes of pasta that I prefer over others. I'm not crazy about spaghetti, for instance. I love linguine, yes, but spaghetti bugs me. And I'd rather have penne than rigatoni, unless the rigatoni is very, very short—then I prefer rigatoni. I also happen to love fusilli, cavatappi, radiatore, and as of last night, I've decided that I LOVE farfalle, which is pasta in the shape of tiny bowties. There's something about the shape that's so interesting to eat—the edges are soft and tender, while the crinkled area in the center retains a nice bite, and…
I'm giving this way too much thought. Sorry. I like food.
Anyway, I'd bought some farfalle recently, and decided to come up with a zucchini dish last night since at the present moment my garden could star in a horror flick entitled Attack of the Killer Zucchini. It's monstrous, people. It's taking over the earth. And every morning when I wake up, there are more zucchini to pick. Anyway, I grabbed a few, then chopped and fiddled and tweaked, and before long I was eating what turned out to be a pretty darn good summer pasta dish. And I was groaning. I love it when that happens.
In the dish I used a non-flour based thickener called "Arrowroot." I wanted to try to duplicate some of the pasta sauces found in restaurants, and I remembered someone telling me once that Arrowroot can sometimes do the trick. And I was pleasantly surprised by the outcome. When I first mixed it together, I was afraid it would be too "cornstarchy", but once I mixed it with the hot cooked pasta, it all came together. Give it a try! (Note, however, that Arrowroot is not absolutely necessary; to thicken the final sauce, just cook it down for a few minutes.)
Let's get started, shall we?
The Cast of Characters: Zucchini, Onion, Garlic, Grape (or Cherry) Tomatoes, Olive Oil, White Wine (or Chicken Broth), Farfalle (Bowtie Pasta), Cream, Parmesan Cheese, and Arrowroot!
Oh! And fresh herbs:
But you can use whatever fresh herbs you have in your arsenal.
Begin by bringing a pot of water to a boil. You'll need that for the pasta.
Next, dice 1 medium onion: Cut it in half from root to top, then cut each half in half and peel. Make vertical slices like this…
Then rotate the knife 90 degrees and cut again to create a dice.
And do you like my new cutting board? It's bamboo. I got it at The Wal Marts.
Next, grab 4 or 5 regular-sized zucchini, not to be confused with the monster zucchini I have growing in my garden. Man, those things would frighten small children.
Make long, vertical slices like so…
Then slice in the other direction.
Now grab a pint of grape tomatoes and slice them in half lengthwise.
Mmm. I just love vegetables. Next to mushrooms and tomatoes, I could live on zucchini alone.
If I wasn't married to a cattle rancher, that is. As it is, out here on the ranch I'm afraid zucchini alone just won't cut the mustard.
Next, dice up about three cloves of garlic. And you know what? I'm a little tired of this "1 clove of garlic" stuff. 1 clove of garlic is never enough.
Okay. Now it's time to BUTTA LA PASTA! Just cook the stuff according to package directions. Farfalle, like all pasta, is best when it's al dente, or when it has a nice "bite" to it. So don't boil the dickens out of it, okay?
Now. Let's get to cookin'! Begin by heating a couple of tablespoons olive oil over medium high to high heat. And if you could find it in your heart to forgive me for the not-sparkly-clean pan, that'd be great. I'm just keepin' it real.
When the oil's nice and hot, throw in half of the zucchini. Don't stir right off the bat; you want the zucchini to brown.
Sprinkle the zucchini with salt. It's for the best.
Stir it around 'til it gets good and brown, then remove to a plate.
Did someone say "Good and Brown?" Check. Oh, lawsie, I could drink this with a straw. Talk about deliciousness.
Repeat with the other half of the zucchini, and remove it to the plate.
Now, in the same pan, drizzle in some more olive oil.
And throw in the onions and garlic and toss 'em around a bit. NOTE: Do NOT overcook the zucchini. You'll want it to still have a little bite to it when you throw it into the sauce later.
I really want to drink this zucchini with a straw. Is that even possible?
Now throw the halved grape tomatoes on top…
And toss it all around a bit. Make sure the heat isn't too high at this point—medium low to medium is just fine.
Now grab the glass of wine and pour in about half of it. This'll probably be about 1/3 cup.
With a whisk or a spoon, scrape the bottom of the pan so all the flavorful bits will be released.
This is called deglazing, by the way. I think.
Now, pour the rest of the wine (another 1/3 cup or so) into a dish. (And believe me, I realize the little bit of zucchini on the rim of the dish is deeply disturbing to some of you. For that, I apologize. But I'm messy cook.)
Now grab that Arrowroot and sprinkle in a tablespoon or so and stir to combine.
Pour that in, and stir gently to combine. Immediately, it will seem rather sticky. Don't worry about that. Just trust in the Pioneer Woman. Whoever that is.
Now, immediately add in 1/2 to 3/4 cup cream.
Now add in the zucchini. Stir it gently to combine, turning off the heat at this point. You really don't want to cook the sauce after adding the arrowroot.
Here's something I like to do when I'm making pasta: While the pasta's still boiling, grab a cup or two of the cooking liquid.
Because if your mixture seems overly thick, you can use the water to thin it a bit. That said, don't be afraid if the sauce seems a little thick; once you add the pasta, it'll all even out.
IMPORTANT: Taste. And add salt. Add PLENTY of salt. Please? You'll be sorry if you don't.
Go ahead and add pepper, too. I'm a pepper person, so I really go for it.
To serve, pour the drained pasta into a large serving bowl or platter.
Add a ton of fresh herbs: chiffonade of basil, chopped lemon thyme, and chives.
And believe me, I thought the lemon thyme was all some big marketing ploy when I decided to plant it this year. But I actually detected a hint of lemon in the finished dish—whew! It was totally delightful, and I felt so silly for doubting.
But don't think you have to have lemon thyme. I'm all about using whatever the heck you have on hand, for Pete's sake.
And please forgive my fingers. Gosh, they look like worms, don't they? Anyone want to go fishing?
Now pour the contents of the pan over the top.
Toss it together. Say "Yum" seven times.
Now grab some Parmesan—I happened to have some of the good stuff, but use the green can if you want. You know I won't judge.
Go ahead and toss in some more herbs if it needs it. I can never get enough fresh basil.
I should point out that I've had these bowls since I was 22 and single. They were something like $9.99 for a set of four, plus the big serving bowl. I use them all the time. Why is it always those $9.99 things that wind up being my favorites?
And, oh! Don't forget to do this.
And, oh! Don't forget to eat every last bite in the bowl. And go ahead and groan…I won't make fun of you.

Preparation Instructions
Bring a pot of water to boil.
Dice 1 medium onion and the zucchini into small slices. Slice the tomatoes in half lengthwise.
Next dice up the garlic.
Once the water is boiling, go ahead and cook the pasta according to directions on the package, on the al dente side so it has a nice "bite" to it.
While the pasta is boiling, heat a couple tablespoons olive oil over medium high to high heat in a saucepan. When the oil is hot, throw in half the zucchini and let it brown. Once brown, toss it onto a plate and repeat with the 2nd half of zucchini and repeat the process. Once the zucchini is cooked, throw in the onions and garlic. Next throw in the halved grape tomatoes on top and toss around a bit, keeping the heat at medium low to medium.
Pour in 1/3 cup white wine (or chicken broth) and with a whisk or spoon, scrape the bottom of the pan so all the flavorful bits will be released.
Pour another 1/3 cup wine (or chicken broth) into a dish and sprinkle the Arrowroot in and stir. Pour this into the pan with the onions and tomatoes, and now add in ½ to ¾ cup cream.
Next, turn the heat off and add in the zucchini and stir gently to combine. Grab a cup or two of the cooking liquid from the pasta and pour into the saucepan if the sauce needs to be thinned out a bit.
Salt and pepper to taste.
To serve, pour the drained pasta into a large serving bowl or platter.
Add your choice of fresh herbs, and pour the contents of the pan over the top.
Add some Parmesan and a final sprinkling of fresh basil – voila!

This is a PERFECT summer dish! My father makes a meal very similar to this all the time, and I think its the one dish i might be able to manage on my own. No pesky meat to freak me out and make me nervous about not cooking it enough.
I looooooove zucchini. We have some in our garden, along with grape tomatoes and some basil… heck, we even have a pasta machine… maybe i'll go all out and make it all from scratch…
HAHAHAHA, yeah, that's not happening.
Shannon On Monday, July 14 at 11:23 am
You can just mail that extra zucchini to Florida. k. thx. bye.
Oh… I almost forgot – Y U M! I can't wait to try this!

Oh how ridiculous and yummy this is!
Renee in NE On Monday, July 14 at 11:26 am
I am so going to make this and then groan with a satisfied smile on my face. I so LOVE your "keeping it real", Ree. My pans look just like yours….it's cuz they get used…not hung from some hook in an apple-pie-order kitchen, that is totally "Woman's Day Photo-Worthy!"
John Deere Mom On Monday, July 14 at 11:27 am
I am groaning just looking at these pictures. I love everything about this meal and will be making it this week. Thank you for another great recipe!
Dee from L.A. On Monday, July 14 at 11:27 am
My kids don't like spaghetti either. Grandma OD them years ago. Can you believe kids not liking spaghetti? Though, they sure love them some pasta! Just not spaghetti, did I mention that? Thanks for the yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum , and yummy recipe. I will try it this week! Take care!
Claudia On Monday, July 14 at 11:28 am
You saved me some time looking for tonights side dish, am soooo bored with my own cooking! Love your site and made a number of your yummy dishes. I'm a good cook and am always on the lookout for something different from the same old, same old. Thanks for all your ideas. When do you find all the time for all that you do?? And what is that 4th herb on the board???
Loving Annie On Monday, July 14 at 11:30 am
That looks good, Ree ! But then everyhting you make does
Deb. On Monday, July 14 at 11:32 am
you know what I hate? just when I think I'm getting a half way decent post, with maybe a giggle or three and then you have to go and spoil it all with the….finger/worm thing, and yes I would LOVE to go fishing right now. gawd woman you crack me up!
Becky On Monday, July 14 at 11:32 am
I have a zuchinni sitting on my counter top right now, guess what's for dinner at the Summers home tonight. I might add sun dried tomatoes, I'm in love with them.
Keary Naughton On Monday, July 14 at 11:32 am
A zucchini recipe that is my favorite is slice it up and boil until tender, drain really good add a big dollop of sour cream maybe two if you used a lot of zucchini and sprinkle alot of lawry seasoning salt on and stir. It doesn't make a difference if it breaks up and becomes mushy. It sure is good. This also works with broccoli. Yummy!!!
Emily P. On Monday, July 14 at 11:33 am
This looks so yummy…I will have to try this one soon! Oh and I am with you on the pasta pickiness…I seem to enjoy all of the larger sized (bulkier) pastas.
kay On Monday, July 14 at 11:33 am
this was great! I don't try many because I am too lazy to cook, however, I must tell you…..I did make the cream, yogurt, brown sugar sauce for fruit and have had it on blueberries, strawberries, and bananas……it is also my favorite new drink!
Deb. On Monday, July 14 at 11:33 am
oh my gawd, I just realized you are using the real time thing still?!!??!!! WTH with ingredient list and all….
AmyP On Monday, July 14 at 11:35 am
YUM! This looks wonderful and I can't wait to make it! Have you ever made a chocolate zucchini cake with all of that monster zucchini in your garden? The zucchini makes the cake so wonderfully moist and also totally camouflages in the chocolate so the kid's never even notice it's in there!
Heathahlee On Monday, July 14 at 11:38 am
I made something almost exactly like this the other night and was very afraid my husband wouldn't like it, but he did. His exact words were "This one's a keeper."
Very yummy.
Tracy On Monday, July 14 at 11:42 am
Wow, this looks really good. Do you ever feel challenged by coming up with new and interesting dishes for your family?
I'm just wondering, because I try new recipes, and my family STILL asks for tuna casserole or sloppy joes every week. *sigh*
Jennifer On Monday, July 14 at 11:42 am
Farfalle is one of my favorites. I make a dish pretty similar to this, and add whatever veggies I have on hand that would work….. broccoli, mushrooms, peppers, etc. So yummy!
I am going to have to try the lemon thyme!
Colleen T in NY On Monday, July 14 at 11:44 am
I make something similar but I've never added cream and never heard of arrowroot. I will have to try that next time. I usually use red pepper and carrot and green beans if I've got them in addition to the zucchini. And I put mushrooms in my husband's bowl. He likes them, I hate them.
And I stop the pasta before it's done and then finish it off in the pan with the veggies and the sauce as I think it melds the flavors better. It works especially good with red sauce. I think it helps make it all one dish instead of sauce on top of pasta. The sauce and the pasta become one.
Jennifer On Monday, July 14 at 11:44 am
That looks really yummy…but, now what do we do with the killer zucchini that's still lurking in the garden??
Any ideas for gigantic zucchinis?!?!
Patti in NJ On Monday, July 14 at 11:45 am
Can I have a printable version? Pretty please?
Shawnna Householder On Monday, July 14 at 11:45 am
I'm so jealous of your fresh herbs. Some folks say herbs are the easiest things to grow, but I think they're all liars.
junebug On Monday, July 14 at 11:47 am
This is for an earlier comment wanting a pomegranate jelly recipe a few days ago:
4 cups pomegranate juice
71/2 cups sugar
2 lemons, juiced
1 (6 fluid ounce) container liquid pectin
1. Combine pom. juice and lemon juice with sugar in a large stainless steel saucepan. Bring to boil over high heat, and at once stir in liquid pectin. Bring to a full rolling boil and boil exactly 1/2 minute. Remove from heat, and skim off foam.
2. Ladle into hot, sterilized jars to within about 1/4 inch of the top. Seal and process in a boiling water canner for 5 minutes.
I got this recipe off of the http://www.allrecipes.com back in 2004.
If any of you haven't tried the sure-jell freezer jam. you're in for a huge delicious surprise! It taste just like fresh fruit jam. I've just made the strawberry, blackberry and blueberry, but I'm sure all of it is wonderful. All you need to do is get some glass jars with the plastic tops to put in the freezer. You can probably find them at the Wal-Marts.
And the second best thing of all, wait for it, NO COOKING!! YEA!
Michele R. from KS On Monday, July 14 at 11:50 am
Love pasta!!! In the eternally wise words of Rachael Ray – YUMMO!!!!!
JoAnne in CT On Monday, July 14 at 11:51 am
I love me my zucchini and bowties are my favorite – but they have to be Barilla! Gonna try this one. mmmmm
Heather in CA On Monday, July 14 at 11:52 am
This looks so good and so summery. Unfortunately I don't think I'd make it past the sauteeing the zucchini part. I'd drink it with a straw too…
Cristin On Monday, July 14 at 11:53 am
I will never cringe with the amount of cream you use…that just makes it more amazing…
JoAnne in CT On Monday, July 14 at 11:56 am
#120 – Jennifer!
Monster zucchini make great zucchini parmesan! Easy cheesy! Just slice it thin like you would an eggplant, and fry it up like you would eggplant – layer with sauce, mozzarella, grated cheese, repeat layers till you're out of squash. Top with mozz, cover with foil and bake at 350 for about 40 minutes – deeeeelish!
chocolatechic On Monday, July 14 at 11:56 am
Looks fabulous.
I wish I had planted zucchini this year. I opted for cucumber.
I will now have to go to the grocery instead of my back yard.
dlyn On Monday, July 14 at 11:56 am
Looks like our dinner last night, except ours had some sautéed chicken in there too! Zukes are my favorite
Michelle On Monday, July 14 at 11:57 am
I wanna grow Zucchini! But ya can't in NYC!
Besides, I have a box of Farfalle sitting in my pantry FOREVER 'cuz I haven't found a recipe for it I liked. Whoo-hoo! Thanks Ree
Jacquie On Monday, July 14 at 11:59 am
This looks really great – whenever I see a new recipe of yours, I have to peek out from between my fingers to see what evil fats await me. But this is not so bad! Just a little cream! Is there really no butter in there?! Shocking.
My kids and I like to put the bowties atop our head and sing: "I'll have a blue Christmas"…. next time you watch the Year Without a Santa Clause you'll see what I mean
Beth L. On Monday, July 14 at 12:02 pm
Yum. I happen to have zucchini and grape tomatoes in my garden. This is on the menu for this week, definitely!

Kimberly On Monday, July 14 at 12:16 pm
I am SO making this. You are such a rock star!
Susan On Monday, July 14 at 12:18 pm
I love this meal. It's my go to meal when I don't have any meat in the house. Sometimes I add black beans (well rinsed) to it to fortify it. I love a touch of something black in a dish with fresh veggies..makes those vivid colors look so striking!
Beth On Monday, July 14 at 12:23 pm
You always come through, PW! Thanks.
Janet On Monday, July 14 at 12:26 pm
I hear you about spaghetti. I think I was frightened by it as a child. Anyway, this looks great. I'm going to have to wait a few days to try this til the zucchini in my garden gets a little bigger.
Trailboss On Monday, July 14 at 12:26 pm
Gemili don't forget the marvelous Gemili. This is a pasta shape that I have a hard time finding out here in the boonies! But it so delightfully holds the sauce. I think I will try this tonight!
Beth On Monday, July 14 at 12:33 pm
I make something very similar (I only use fresh basil) which we call "Caleb's Favorite Noodles." It was a recipe I threw together, it didn't have a name, and my 5 year old loved it. Whenever I made it he'd say "Oh, my favorite noodles!" and that's how it was named.
Jennifer On Monday, July 14 at 12:36 pm
Where did you find arrowroot out there in the country? I live in a suburb of a big city and can't seem to find the stuff!

I love all the great shapes that pasta comes in. It's fun to use new shapes, especially in Summer salads. Everyone gets a kick outta them.
Vicki On Monday, July 14 at 12:39 pm
This just in my new Taste of Home magazine – great idea for the all the zucchini coming in now.
Zucchini salsa
5 cups shredded zucchini (about 5 medium)
4 medium tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped
2 medium onions, chopped
2 medium green peppers, chopped
1 small sweet red pepper, chopped
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 cup white vinegar
1 can (8oz) tomato sauce
2 tbls tomato paste
3 garlic cloves, minched
3 tsp ground mustard
2 1/4 tsp salt
3/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp each ground cumin, nutmeg and turmeric
1/2 tsp pepper
In a dutch oven, combine all ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered for 40-50 minutes
or until thickened, stirring occasionally.
Cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate until chilled. Serve with your favorite snack chip or grilled
meats – great on hot dogs. Also great as a relish or new condiment.

Everything looks so yummy!!! Although I have a question, what is Arrowroot? And what does it do for cooking?
Elisabeth On Monday, July 14 at 12:46 pm
Yummmm . . . I am sooooo making this. My zucchini plant is about to burst and this looks sooooo good. 'Course I could just live on fried zucchini, but this looks tasty!
Tracy On Monday, July 14 at 12:47 pm
Ooops..wait a minute….ok, I am back. I had to catch the sailva running down my chin! YUMMO!
MelissaF On Monday, July 14 at 12:48 pm
Looks yummy. Can't wait to try it!
Elizabeth On Monday, July 14 at 12:49 pm
That looks delish!
Hey, I was watching the Food Network's show last night, their next Food Network Star show. Which lead me to have a brilliant idea… I think that they should come to YOUR house and film a special (or series, if you're up for that level of intrusion into your life ;)) so all of us bloggy readers can see you in action. I think it would be a big hit and a lot of fun! Your home is so gorgeous in pictures, I'd love to see it on camera, your food is awesome and obviously you have the personality to pull it off.
Just a thought. Though I'm sure you've gotten this suggestion before.
Diane in Cincinnati On Monday, July 14 at 12:51 pm
YUM, YUM, YUM, YUM, YUM, YUM, YUM! I love pasta dishes! Thanks, Ree!
Darlyne On Monday, July 14 at 12:52 pm
This looks so delicious! My mouth is watering!
allyall On Monday, July 14 at 12:52 pm
Agreed about the types of pasta. I won't touch angel hair pasta. Icky stuff.
Looks yummy, but won't use up enough zucchini. More good zucchini using recipes please b/c I am not a fan of zucchini bread!
Michelle O. On Monday, July 14 at 1:01 pm
1 clove of garlic is never enough.
Michelle O. On Monday, July 14 at 1:02 pm
"1 clove of garlic is never enough."
Looks yummy there has to be someone I know giving away killer zucchini there always is this time of year.
Noelle On Monday, July 14 at 1:04 pm
Dearest PW,
If I promise to never, ever again mention my suspicions that you are pg will you please never, ever again call Walmart (or even Wal-Mart is acceptable) "The Wal Marts"? Pleeeeeese??? I don't know if it's a joke or not, but for some reason it's like nails on a chalkboard for me and I like your blog way too much to have that sound screeching through my brain when I read "The Wal Marts" in one of your posts. Now I'm off to get my afternoon Starbucks fix Love ya!
Chris A. On Monday, July 14 at 1:06 pm
Okay, I come here and read this and I don't even cook and my mouth is always watering by the time I finish reading (LOL)! Yeah, I admit I have made some of your recipes and they've actually turned out good (now that's saying something for someone who doesn't cook – I bake). Maybe I'll give this one a try. Thanks so much Ree for sharing all you do!
sharon On Monday, July 14 at 1:08 pm
Love all those fresh veggies!! Looks like a perfect summer dish. I've never cooked with lemon thyme but I think that I'd fall in love.
kc quilter On Monday, July 14 at 1:08 pm
I discovered your blog a couple of weeks ago and am hopelessly addicted!!!! I can't wait to try the bowtie pasta/zucchini thing—looks yummy. I love, love, love the closeup photos of procedures–it really helps!
Linda On Monday, July 14 at 1:09 pm
Looks great…I will try it sometime soon.
I grew thyme for the first time this year…but that lemon thyme looks sooooo pretty…that will be on my list of things to try. Have a good day. Linda
Elaine C. On Monday, July 14 at 1:12 pm
Um, wow. I too could live on zucchini, and drink it through a straw! I should know better than to come over here and look at your cooking page before I have lunch…doh!
Keri On Monday, July 14 at 1:12 pm
Yea! Thanks for creating & sharing this recipe. I definitely need ways to use up all my zucchini, too!
PatW On Monday, July 14 at 1:16 pm
I'd love to feed this to my son, but he'd turn up his nose at the zucchini and fresh tomatoes. Usually he'll go for anything pasta– he's the one who said that if pasta hadn't been invented, he wouldn't have been born. I've got to work on him a bit.
Sandra in Phx On Monday, July 14 at 1:16 pm
My sweet husband would adore me if I made this dish for him…forgive me but *I* do not like zucchini or tomatoes (I know, he wonders how we stay married all the time!). But I am thinking I might make it for him as a special treat. I am all about making him feel special:)
Kirstin On Monday, July 14 at 1:19 pm
That looks absolutely yummy! I luva luva pasta!
Uschi On Monday, July 14 at 1:31 pm
OOHHHhhhhh, that looks good and yes it will be one that is a need for trying. So this will be on my To-Do-List too
Romi On Monday, July 14 at 1:32 pm
Buon Appetito! I'm makin' that today.
shontail On Monday, July 14 at 1:32 pm
My friends would love this
Miz Booshay On Monday, July 14 at 1:36 pm
I am making this tonight.
Oh yes, I am.
Thanks, Ree!
Lori On Monday, July 14 at 1:38 pm
This looks fabulous!! I can't wait to try this, I've made several of your recipes and they have all turned out great!! I love zucchini anyway it's made, most of the time I cut mine the way you did for this recipe the long way but then don't dice it-I lay it in a baking pan green side down, sprinkle it with salt, pepper, garlic add sliced butter patts and sprinkle parmesan cheese over the top-then I bake it covered until it is just starting to get tender then take the tin foil off and broil until the cheese starts to get golden brown. Really good and easy. Thank you for another great recipe!!
Jenn On Monday, July 14 at 1:50 pm
Oh man, does that ever look yummy!
A On Monday, July 14 at 2:01 pm
Sonesta On Monday, July 14 at 2:02 pm
Oh yummy! I absolutely love zucchini! This looks like such a simple scrumptous dish! Can't wait to try it.
Amy On Monday, July 14 at 2:03 pm
I will be making this on Friday for dinner, for sure, after my weekly trip to the farmers market for some zucchini and tomatoes. Might have to add some grilled chicken, as my boyfriend doesn't consider anything a meal without some meat in it.
Lisa in N. Cali On Monday, July 14 at 2:16 pm
Ree, try this, bowtie pasta, let completely cool, mix in 1 cup alfredo sauce, 1 cup parmesan cheese, and a whole bunch of fresh spinach, add some mushrooms too if you like, it's a refreshing cold summer pasta salad.
Rebecca On Monday, July 14 at 2:16 pm
ever thought of making your recipes in a printer-friendly version?f
maya On Monday, July 14 at 2:17 pm
could also add lemon zest if you don't have lemon thyme…
Kirsten S On Monday, July 14 at 2:19 pm
Yum! I share your love of pasta. I'm a bit pickier than you though, so I'd leave out a couple of things. Other than that it looks positively delicious! Oh, and it KILLS me every time you refer to it as "The Wal Marts." Seriously. I almost choked on my lunch! (And it's not the first time I've heard you refer to it that way!) You are hilarious!!!
mary On Monday, July 14 at 2:19 pm
Beautiful picture, and delicious looking dish!! The first picture took my breath away
Judy @ In His Grip On Monday, July 14 at 2:32 pm
I am definately going to try this one.
Julie On Monday, July 14 at 2:33 pm
Oh sister- I hear you on the giant zucchini. I am making zucchini bread out the wayzoo! Thanks for a recipe that I can now use the giant 2.5lb zucchini I have in my fridge.
BigTips On Monday, July 14 at 2:34 pm
Instead of cornstarch or arrowroot, you could make a blonde roux (equal parts butter and flour cooked for a few minutes) to thicken your cream sauce.
Make zucchini bread with all that access zucchini or shred it and freeze it for future bread baking. Turns out great!
Jess in MA On Monday, July 14 at 2:35 pm
I am so making this on Friday! It's the day I get my share from the farm and I will get lots of zuchini and some squash, too. Yuuuum! A summer pasta, my favorite.
I am not much of a cook, but I must say I use arrowroot all the time. I use it to thicken up Indian sauces that I make when they need just a bit more. Sometimes cooking stuff down just isn't the way to go, and the arrowroot works great. It dissolves very easily so if you sprinkle it right in your sauce it usually is ok and doesn't make weird lumps.
lleal On Monday, July 14 at 2:48 pm
Yuuuuummmmmmm! Can't wait to try it!
I am "garden sitting" for a friend who is out of town for 2 weeks. I am going to raid her garden and make this with whatever SHE has lying around! Ha!
Mary M On Monday, July 14 at 2:49 pm
Oooo, PW – I am totally making this for dinner tonight! I have to agree with you about the tomatoes, mushrooms and zucchini – also 3 of my favorites. If we just added artichokes, then I'd be perfectly content!
Arrowroot is great, isn't it? It was a staple in our kitchen for years, because I have a son who has high-functioning autism, and we had him on a gluten-free, casein-free diet. (Gluten and casein are the proteins in wheat/rye/barley/oats, and milk). Because we couldn't do any of the forementioned grains, we used all sorts of interesting flours that I'd never heard of before. I learned a lot of ingenuity in cooking that way. Luckily, the happy kid doesn't have to be on such a restrictive diet anymore, and can eat regular pasta and cream and cheese again. That said, I doubt he will touch your lovely dish with a ten-foot pole, but dh and I will love it!
Angela On Monday, July 14 at 2:50 pm
I LOVE bow ties
Angie C. On Monday, July 14 at 2:52 pm
Can you believe that something ate all of the zucchini plants I had growing? This will be the first year I haven't complained about having too many
I guess I'll have to stalk the local farmer's market (ha ha, get it?)
lauren On Monday, July 14 at 2:54 pm
oh mygoodness that looks yum.
Ruth Ann in East Texas On Monday, July 14 at 2:57 pm
This looks great; and a truly good summer type pasta salad. I have a lot of squash and fresh tomatoes! do you think the arrowroot works like cornstarch or flour? wonder if it has any flavoring. i see you use Spice Island…my very favorite! brings back memories of my mom; she loved Beau Monde and had all of SI's spices! they are top shelf for sure! i have a recipe i want to send you…it's a summertime pasta w/ angel hair and fresh veggies.
Marni On Monday, July 14 at 3:00 pm
Looks de-lish!!!
The new cutting board looks great as well.
Barb On Monday, July 14 at 3:01 pm
Hey, that's my bamboo cutting board from Da Wall Marts too!
Sounds yummy! I'll be posting a new pasta recipe that I created tomorrow on my blog. Warning, however, I used rigatoni, because I prefer it over penne. I love how the "schtuff" gets inside the tubes……
susie On Monday, July 14 at 3:02 pm
What a perfect dish! I'm growing zucchini, cherry tomatoes, basil, lemon thyme, and chives in my garden this year! I can't wait!
Andrea On Monday, July 14 at 3:02 pm
I could just eat zucchini all day- cook it with some butter and then some soy sauce, serve with some shrimp cooked with soy sauce and lemon juice. *drool*
Donna On Monday, July 14 at 3:08 pm
I love pasta!! I crave pasta!! I dream of pasta!!!
Thank you!!
Laurie in VA On Monday, July 14 at 3:10 pm
Looks delicious!
jenne On Monday, July 14 at 3:13 pm
Oh, I think I love Zucchini as much as you do, Ree. Can't get enough of it. It's the only vegetable that truly makes me want to start a garden–but I suck at gardening, so I won't.
If you manage to read down to my comment, I have to encourage you to take some of your zucchini and try the following:
Slice small (very tasty) or large zucchini into rounds. Assemble your favorite lasagna, but instead of using cooked noodles, use raw zucchini rounds. If you have it, rounds of yellow summer squash are great in this too.
I have an entire recipe of this, with home-made turkey Italian Sausage and from-scratch sauce and lots of tomatoes and delicious ricotta and mozzarella…but I bet you have your own awesome lasagna recipe, so just make this small replacement (and toss in some fennel seeds if you don't use Italian sausage), and you'll have to plant even more zucchini for next year.
Tessa On Monday, July 14 at 3:20 pm
Thanks for doing a good one for us vegetarians. I have a bunch of zucchini from my CSA farm just waiting to be put in this recipe.
cecelia On Monday, July 14 at 3:22 pm
This is a great garden dish – I will use it soon! And, I think bowtie pasta are very very pretty … love the ric-rac edging.
The Apron Queen On Monday, July 14 at 3:22 pm
Farfalle is my favorite shape too. Did you know it means butterfly in Italian? I make a to-die-for greek pata salad with it. Feta cheese. YUM!
I love zucchini from the garden. Wish I'd have planted some. Store bought will do though & I'll have to give this a try. Made your Crash Hot Potatoes with steak last night. Everyone was happy. Kids & hubby. And me too becasue it was easy.
For your daily dose of vintage goodness & a bit of silliness, stop by Confessions of an Apron Queen
mary s On Monday, July 14 at 3:40 pm
I make many versions of this dish…always tasty, but I somehow feel the need to "finish " the sauce by whisking in a bit of butter after i turn off the heat….I guess i need to counteract the healthiness of the ingredients. Anyway, I agree with you about pasta shapes…some are just more appealing, or perhaps sauce clings to them better. Big fan of penne, and fusilli, and love linguine. Thin spaghetti is good, thick is not. Can you mail order De Cecco? The stuff is great, and never becomes sponge like. Their orzo is great for a kid dish…with butter, peas, and parmesan….very comforting food

Sinking Of The Titanic And Great Sea Disasters
Logan Marshall

SIXTEEN boats were in the procession which entered on the terrible hours of rowing, drifting and suspense. Women wept for lost husbands and sons, sailors sobbed for the ship which had been their pride. Men choked back tears and sought to comfort the widowed. Perhaps, they said, other boats might have put off in another direction. They strove, though none too sure themselves, to convince the women of the certainty that a rescue ship would appear.

DistributionWatch Review: Red Hat Linux 6.1
Red Hat Linux: A Mainstream Linux
Everyone, it seems, wants it both ways. Computer users who are sick of Microsoft's monopolistic and bullying actions are seeking a viable alternative to Windows, so they naturally turn their attention to Linux. But these same users are accustomed to the Windows graphical interface, the relative ease of Windows installation and the raft of applications available for Windows users. So when they come to Linux, they're expecting the best parts of other operating systems, without any of the drawbacks. They want it both ways.
As does Red Hat Software. On the one hand, Red Hat Software has proven adept at positioning Red Hat Linux as a superior server OS, exploiting the best features of Linux and convincing the corporate world that Red Hat Linux belongs at the center of corporate Internet planning. In addition, Red Hat Software has added a raft of tools that makes installing and configuring Red Hat Linux a much easier task. But Red Hat Software wants it both ways: Red Hat Linux is also positioned as a powerful desktop OS that's a worthy competitor to Windows.
That's why evaluating Red Hat Linux is such a challenge: only Corel and (to a lesser extent) Caldera position their Linux distributions as user-friendly and appropriate for almost any level of user. As a server-based operating system, Red Hat Linux excels on every level. As a desktop operating system, Red Hat Linux must be judged against other Linux distributions as well as Windows and the Macintosh. Is it up to the task? This review should provide you with the information you need to make your own conclusions; ours will be presented at the end.

As of Tuesday, October 23, 2012
© Copyright 2015 Newton Citizen
ATHENS -- Georgia might be the most fortunate team in the nation.
Everyone concedes the 12th-ranked Bulldogs haven't played up to expectations, a situation that boiled over this week when senior safety Shawn Williams called out his defensive teammates for "playing too soft."
But Georgia (6-1, 4-1 Southeastern Conference) still finds itself in an enviable position: facing No. 3 Florida (7-0, 6-0) on Saturday with a chance to gain the inside track to the league championship game.
"That's the crazy thing about our league," safety Sanders Commings said Tuesday. "It doesn't matter who you lose to. All that matters is how many losses you have."
An extremely favorable schedule doesn't hurt, either.
Before the SEC expanded to 14 teams, the Bulldogs were set to face defending national champion Alabama this season. But the league changed its scheduling formula, giving each team an additional division game, so Georgia dropped the Crimson Tide in favor of Missouri.
What a favorable trade that was.
The Bulldogs have faced only one team with a winning record -- No. 17 South Carolina -- and lost that game by four touchdowns. The six teams Georgia has beaten have a combined record of 7-31 against top-division opponents.
That's not all. If the Bulldogs can knock off the Gators, it should be a cakewalk the rest of the way. The last four opponents are a cumulative 6-13 against Football Bowl Subdivision teams.
"Coming into the season, the main things that everybody saw were the talent we had coming back and the schedule we had," linebacker Christian Robinson conceded. "It lined up really well."
Even when matched against inferior teams, Georgia has rarely looked dominant. There were troubling signs on defense, especially, when the Bulldogs surrendered 23 points to lowly Buffalo in the season opener. Since then, they have struggled to closer-than-expected wins against Tennessee (51-44) and last week's nail-biter at Kentucky (29-24).
"We've been fortunate," linebacker Amarlo Herrera said. "We've been playing bad ball at a good time. We've been playing people that couldn't capitalize on us playing bad."
The only time the Bulldogs were matched against one of the country's better teams, they failed miserably. South Carolina romped to a 35-7 victory that was pretty much in the bag by the end of a 21-point first quarter. Georgia was dominated in total yards, 392-224, and only a meaningless touchdown with less than 2 minutes remaining kept it from being a shutout.
But before the Bulldogs played another game, they had reclaimed control of their own destiny. While Georgia was licking its wounds during an off week, South Carolina lost a tough one at LSU, 23-21. Then, finishing up a brutal three-game stretch, the Gamecocks were blown out 44-11 at Florida last Saturday afternoon before the Bulldogs even took the field at Kentucky.
"I feel like we've got a second opportunity to shock the world," receiver Marlon Brown said. "This time, we can't slip up."
If the Bulldogs don't start playing better on defense, they could be headed for another South Carolina-like debacle against the Gators. It's all so surprising, since defense was supposed to be the strength of this team -- especially when two of its best players, linebacker Jarvis Jones and safety Bacarri Rambo, passed up a chance to enter the NFL draft.
For some reason, Georgia hasn't come close to matching its performance in 2011, ranking in the bottom half of the SEC rankings points allowed (eighth at 24.1 per game) and run defense (10th with a 167.9-yard average).

WACO, Texas (AP) A Central Texas justice of the peace has resigned after pleading guilty to two felony counts of records tampering in a mileage reimbursement scam.
A prosecutor has recommended probation for McLennan County Justice of the Peace Jean Laster Boone and repayment of about $5,100.
Laster Boone, who was arrested in September, pleaded guilty Tuesday in Waco. She'll be sentenced in December.
Investigators say Laster Boone, who's been a JP since 1999, submitted falsified mileage reimbursement forms to collect the maximum $360 per month allowed by the county. The payments are for per-mile reimbursement for using personal vehicles for county business.
Texas Rangers assisted in the investigation that began last summer when some employees reported Laster Boone directed them to falsify mileage documents.

OKLAHOMA CITY — From the opening moments until a few minutes before the final buzzer, the Thunder were as tough and angry as they'd pledged to be Monday night.
Then they went all jelly-legged.
The Mavericks closed regulation in truly stunning fashion with a 17-2 run, then salted the game away with a 7-0 run over the final 40 seconds of overtime to win 112-105.
There's no other way to say it than this: Oklahoma City choked, and now — down 3-1 in this best-of-seven series — it has no chance whatsoever to advance to the Finals.
Actually, there are other ways to say it. Dallas is the tougher, angrier team in this series. More desperate, you might say, what with its roster's advanced age. If the Mavs hadn't proved themselves to everyone before Game 4, they have a world of believers now.
Oh, and Nowitzki is a better player than Kevin Durant — hands down. Is anyone out there really going to take the other side of that debate? He may be playing better than anyone else on the planet, which happens to include LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Derrick Rose.
This doesn't mean his team should be considered the favorite to win the championship. At this point, it still probably shouldn't.
But, my, how resilient the Mavs are.
Time after time, the Thunder opened a nice lead only to see Nowitzki add to his final of 40 points as the Mavs climbed all the way back.
It happened in the second quarter, when the Mavs cut a 12-point deficit to three just before halftime. It happened in the third quarter, when they charged to within two points from 11 down. And it happened twice in the fourth quarter — the second time at last being the charm.

JAKARTA, Indonesia 3/23/12 (PennWell) -- Three new hydropower plants representing an investment of US $2.91 billion will be constructed in Indonesia, sources say.
The three hydroelectric facilities will be "huge investments" and will be given to private developers, according to Nur Pramudji, president of Indonesia's Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN).
The first -- called the Karama power plant -- will be a 450-MW, $1.2 billion project in the country's West Sulawesi province. It will be constructed by PT Sulbar Group and China Gezhoumba group.
The second will be constructed by PT Kerinci Hydro Energy with a 450-MW capacity and a $510 million price tag. It will be in Kerini, Jambi Province.
The third, Batang Toru, will have a 500-MW capacity and an estimated total investment of $1.2 billion. Operational Cooporationi Dharma Hydro (KSO) has been awarded its contract.
The decision to construct the three new plants is one of several hydroelectric ones made by PLN in recent months. The state-owned utility announced in March that it has signed power purchase agreements with 130 small hydropower plants, and it announced the identification of 96 potential hydropower sites in January.

Case is slippery, audio jack ridiculous
I've owned mophie packs in one form or another for a couple of versions of iPhone, this one disappoints whereas all prior versions I've owned mophie packs in one form or another for a couple of versions of iPhone, this one disappoints whereas all prior versions were great.
I'm knocking one start off because the product description says it's a "soft-touch case". The reality is that it's not soft-touch at all, rather hard plastic. It's smooth in a way I can only compare to the hard candy shell of a M&M candy.
Another star is removed for requiring an extension for your headphones to be able to reach the jack. Granted, the extension is included. The reality however is that I would have to keep track of that extension if I wanted to plug in my headphones, or I could remove the bottom of the case but then have to keep track of that, simultaneously not be able to charge the phone. Didn't Apple figure out consumer aversion, if not poor product design, to inset audio jacks with the first iPhone? mophie should have taken that cue.
Third star removed for micro usb surround. As with the headphones, because of the connector being inset only some cables fit. …

Back in the saddle
The ebb and flow of a college basketball season normally includes more extreme deviations for freshmen.
With 20 double-digit scoring performances, Duke's Rasheed Sulaimon did his best to disprove that theory this season.
Still, Sulaimon had a couple of dips in play, including in Duke's most recent games, and the 6-4 guard hopes he's ready for an upswing now that NCAA Tournament time has arrived.
Through the middle of Duke's ACC schedule in January and February, Sulaimon had a red-shot stretch where he scored in double figures in 9 of 11 games. Twice he reached 25 points, including his season-best 27-point day in an 89-68 win over Boston College on Feb. 24.
Just when it looked like Sulaimon had the ACC rookie of the year award wrapped up, he stumbled in all phases of his game. He closed the regular season with a four-game stretch where his highest scoring output was seven points.
Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said his struggles involved more than simply putting the ball in the basket.
"He has to react a little differently — more energy, better defense, rebounding," Krzyzewski said during a March 8 news conference.
The next night, when Duke played North Carolina at the Smith Center in Chapel Hill, Sulaimon was out of the starting lineup for only the second time this season.
His response? A game where he had the same number of points as turnovers — one.
That earned him a reserve role for a second consecutive game, on Friday night in the ACC Tournament against Maryland.
This time, Sulaimon showed the aggressiveness his coaches wanted to see. He scored 16 points but also grabbed six rebounds and didn't turn the ball over in a game that the Blue Devils lost 83-74.
To many observers at the Greensboro Coliseum, he was the most confident Duke player on a down night for the Blue Devils.
Because of that upswing in performance, Sulaimon finds himself back working with the starters as the Blue Devils prepare for to play Albany on Friday (12:15 p.m., WRAL) in the NCAA Tournament at Philadelphia's Wells-Fargo Center.
"It feels good (to be starting)," Sulaimon said. "But at the same time, I've just got to bring it each and every game, whether I'm starting or coming off the bench. I have to do what they need me to do. There are no second chances now.
"Whatever they need me to do, I've got to go in there and do it whether that's coming off the bench or starting."
Sulaimon has turned in a good first year as a college basketball player. He is averaging 11.5 points per game and has made 43.2 percent of his shots, including 37.8 percent of his 3-pointers.
He has far more assists (65) than turnovers (43).
Krzyzewski said Sulaimon has experienced what many freshmen players do as they adjust to the tougher demands asked of them in college basketball.
"They've never played this hard, this long," Krzyzewski said. "It's not even close. Freshman, I don't care what high school program you come from, he's the best player in his league maybe the best player in his state. Even when he thinks he's playing hard, he only has to play so hard relative to his competition.
"There's never somebody in practice who is older and better than him. He doesn't have an academic load. He's not home. All those things lead into a freshman having ups and downs. And for him, he's had many more ups than downs."
Sulaimon's highlights this season include his 14-point game in a 69-66 win over Louisville on Nov. 24 and 17 points the following game, on Nov. 28, when Duke beat Ohio State 73-68.
He also suffered through an 0-of-10 shooting day when the Blue Devils lost at N.C. State 84-76 on Jan. 12.
After his 27-point game against Boston College last month, Sulaimon was 7-of-23 from the field over his next four games with eight turnovers.
"I was having a bad stretch, a little bit, those couple of games," Sulaimon said. "It was just something I had to sit back and reflect on what I did wrong in those games and just come back strong in the next game, just play my game, trust my instincts."
He did that against Maryland, and now he knows he must do the same if the Blue Devils are to keep winning and advancing in the NCAA Tournament.
"At this time of year, it's no more excuses," Sulaimon said. "I'm not a freshman anymore. I'm a veteran. Now I've just got to go out there and play. I know what to expect now."

Recording Distorted Guitar Tutorial Part 7: Double Tracking, Layering + Panning
Hi, I'm Dave from boyinaband.com
And I'm Kieran from guywithaguitar.com
And Today we'll be looking at double tracking and panning to see if that can fill out the guitar tone a bit more.
We'll begin with double tracking. Much like with vocals, often producers will record more than one take of a guitar part, then layer it on top of another take. Each take will have minute differences in the recording which will mean the combined tone will be thicker than the original single tone.
The recordings have to be very tight, else the double-tracking will sound sloppy and out of time.
Since we're double tracking the guitar, let's double track Kieran… with some minute differences. Sorted. Incidentally, I forgot to record Kieran's guitar part to a click track, so you'll have to use some acting skills and pretend that he's playing this guitar part.
Take a listen to this guitar part on its own…
And now listen with the double tracking.
There's a slight thickening of the tone, but the real use of double tracking is when either panning the tones or layering different tones. So let's try those techniques!
Next let's try layering two different tones together – this is really useful for getting a full sounding tone. We'll layer a bassier tone with a treblier tone to make a nice big guitar sound.
Let's put the bottom half of one Kieran with the top of another to express this artistically. and since this is the last chance to put him in an obscure place for this video series, I'll place him on this adorable picture of a rhino.
Here's the trebly tone.
Here's the bassy tone.
And here's the two tones mixed together.
The mixed tone gives the power of the bassy tone and the crisp, airiness of the trebley tone – If you're struggling to get a full sounding tone with one mic take, try recording two takes with different settings and mixing them to taste on the computer!
Last, let's try panning. You have to be careful with panning – some radio stations still only operate in mono, so you should make sure your song sounds good in mono and in stereo.
But yes – to make your guitar sound really big, try panning one tone to the left and one to the right. I'll pan them by 100% so we can really hear the difference.
I'll pan Kieran too, by panning him to the far left and right… with a frying pan… whilst this prospector is panning for gold, next to this dead pan comedian.
Here's the layered guitar with no panning
And now listen with the panning applied.
And here's both together.
The panning definitely makes the guitar feel bigger, but at the same time it loses the power and clarity of the unpanned tone. A cool tone can be achieved by combining the two, since that gives the width of the panning and the power of the central unpanned tone. A lot of professional recordings for bands such as slipknot simply use two guitars, one panned left and one panned right, though. So experiment and find what works for you!
And there we have it! I hope this video series has helped to introduce some of the different things to consider when recording distorted guitar, and if not, I hope you had a decent laugh at Kieran's expense. When I learn more about guitar tone, I'll no doubt make some step-by-step guides to creating quality tones.

Netbackup restore of vmx files
We have Netbackup 7.6 installed to backup our virtual environment. We recently had a storage crash we resulted in 2 corrupt vmx files and did a full restore of the entire virtual machine to before our storage incident. However it did not restore a working vmx file and we thus had to re-create the vmx file manually.
Question does Netbackup actually backup .vmx files …. ? Is there a special procedure in doing a restore to ensure the vmx file is replaced?
Comments 3 Comments • Jump to latest comment
I see a old technote related to it plz verfiy this..Not sure it is applicable to 7.6 or not..
If backups are captured using the VMware Consolidated Backup (VCB) Framework the files displayed will incude *.vmx, *.vmdk, *.log, etc.
vmx files are not backed up in vADP backups. In VMware backup, NetBackup read and save VM configuration, but it does not actually backup whole vmx file. It is better to recreate VM and attach existing vmdks to new VM.
Or recover VM in NetBackup.VM will be recreated based on VM configuration saved at backup time. However, vmdk will be restored from backup as well.

Five shootings in one night and Farmington police say at least four of them are connected.
People living in the neighborhood say they've never seen anything like this.
Residents thought they were fireworks, not gunshots Saturday night.
"We heard some popping sound like the firecracker type thing I think it was six maybe more," said Leroy Romero, who lives across the street.
Police were called to investigate a shooting Saturday night. When they arrived, they found 40-year-old Christopher Valdez dead.
"It shook me up really bad. I couldn't sleep and first time I saw someone getting hit like that and die," said neighbor Alberta Yazzie.
Yazzie said she saw it happen, and her house was hit by a stray bullet.
"When I glanced back again that person got hit, he just fell and that was it," she said.
Police say they believe Valdez wasn't the target and was coming from down the street to see what was happening.
His neighbors said Valdez was a good guy.
"He was a good neighbor he mind his own business he worked in the oilfield," said neighbor Herbie Ellis.
At least three other people were shot. One man who was shot faces charges.
At this time police say they aren't sure what the motive was behind the shooting. They're still conducting interviews to piece together what exactly happened.
A fifth gunshot victim showed up to the hospital that evening as well. He told police he was not involved in the shooting, but police are still investigating whether his story is true.
