Trying out the Logitech iPad Mini keyboard
I really liked the Logitech Ultrathin keyboard for the full size iPad (which I blogged about previously), so I thought that investing in the mini version would be a good idea, now that I am utterly devoted to my iPad Mini as a reading and note-taking device.
Image: The hands of a giant!
It takes a little getting used to, to say the least, as the keyboard is definitely more compact. At first, I felt like I had regressed several decades as a typist and needed to spend 70% of my time looking at the keys to make sure I was hitting the right ones. How useful this accessory is depends on how quickly one adapts to mini-typing…

However, for me, the switch-over progressed quickly, paragraph by paragraph, and the thing makes the iPad into the cutest little computing device I've seen since that late-90s Cambrian explosion of devices when Windows CE launched (my favourite was the tiny, laptop version of the HP Jornada series and apparently part of my gadget-loving soul is constantly seeking out a replacement for that lost writing machine. Because writing device was what it was, more than a decade before MacBook Airs and their ilk – a slim, light, long-battery life writing machine.

Sandy unclear where things are headed with Dickey, Yanks & Nats were interested
The Yankees and Nationals talked to the Mets this week about acquiring R.A. Dickey, but talks went no place, Andy Martino of the Daily News said on Twitter.
This morning, ESPN New York's Andrew Marchand said the Yankees are listening to offers for OF Curtis Granderson and starting pitchers Phil Hughes and Ivan Nova.
In his final talk with reporters before leaving the Winter Meetings, Alderson said he has no real sense of where things are headed with Dickey, though that could always change later in the day.
"Things are moving forward on two tracks," he explained, saying no one should assume he's waiting for a better trade offer.
However, he said, the Mets will never arbitrarily cut off talks with Dickey about a contract extension, even if they move in to Spring Training without having made a deal.

How to understand building and planning regulations
What are planning and building controls? Why do they exist? Can you deal with them yourself or is it best to ask a specialist? As with any task, you can decide for yourself when you know exactly what's involved.
First of all, it's important to understand what planning and building regulations are. It's easy to think of them as restrictive, bureaucratic tools put in place purely to thwart your ambitions. However, they're essential safety mechanisms which have been designed to protect you, your neighbours and the local environment.
The regulatory bodies will give you permission to carry out your plans unless there are very good reasons not to - in which case they must explain their decision. And if you disagree, you have the right to appeal against it.

I wanted to create a romantic 1930's Gatsby feel to my models hair. - I rough dried hair first, then sectioned off my four chains 2 at the crown and 1 either side of the head above the ears these will link together to create my headband. - I then curled hair from the nape upward with my ghds facing downwards to create a soft curl. - When I got to the sides of the head I curled my sections towards the face still with my ghds facing downwards. - I then loosened my curls and gently teased the roots and twisted my section up and pinned them to create a bob shape. - I continued up the head until my last sections at the top front of my sides I left these loose to give the feeling of an A-line bob, - Where the hair was in a side parting I smoothed the very top flat with my ghds and with kirby grips I gripped the hair downwards to give a horseshoe of flat at the top and curly at the bottom. - Then pulling my chains flat around the head to create a head band effect and clipped them in place. - To finish I did a soft pin curl to hide any clips or joins.

16 oz. Cocktail Shaker "Cheater Tin", Candy Red
- 16 oz. Capacity
- Weighted Shaker Tin
- Brilliant red powder coat, "candy red"
The candy red 16 oz. cocktail shaker tin, also known as a "cheater tin" can be used with a Boston Shaker tin (leaving the pint glass aside) to chill a cocktail faster (since both sides are stainless steel) at the expense of size. The cheater tin is 16 oz. and will fit deeper into a Boston Shaker so it won't create as big of a drink. Also works great for quick shaking a muddled cocktail or a cocktail in a highball glass without completely transferring to a cocktail shaker (for 2-shakes, etc.)
Note: Testing shows that this 16 oz. cocktail shaker "cheater tin" will not cover over a standard 16 oz. pint glass.

With the way this offense has played lately it's clear the the Orioles desperately need a bat.
If they do indeed make the playoffs and face off against an ace, does anyone actually go into the game feeling good about the Orioles chances? A one game playoff against Jered Weaver with this offense probably wouldn't end well.
If the Orioles are serious about making the playoffs, which will likely be as the second wild card, they need to upgrade their offense.

Humanistic and Transpersonal Psychology and Thought
Siren Song: The Life and Works of Dr. Stanley Krippner10/30/2012
by Nadine Vaughan, Ph.D.
It is 1975. I arrive at the threshold of the rest of my life with excitement. I am about to meet the folks who make Saybrook the "go to" place for a doctorate in humanistic psychology. Then called The Humanist Psychology Institute (HPI), it is already the stuff of urban legend. I remember the comments of friends, and laugh out loud. "Really? You can write your dissertation on that?" Now I will see the faces of these courageous academicians.
I drive up to New Jersey and enter the meeting room, knowing something amazing is about to happen. It does. This is when I meet Dr. Stanley Krippner. Off in a corner, looking nothing like Freud, James, or Skinner, Stanley sports a colorful jacket of indigenous design and a smile that twinkles each time he hears a student make an outrageous claim concerning paranormal events. Tasked with educating these searching souls, Krippner's eyes lower as he carefully chooses just the right words. Students wait; miners ready to collect the gems he produces from the recesses of his great mind. Stanley's brow slightly furrows as he weighs the ramifications of his words; his steady voice becomes a loving friend. Although I do not yet know how, this early trek into the unknown pads my own path into the nature of consciousness and changes my life.
Fast forward to Saturday, August 4, 2012. Following weeks of excited emails proclaiming "Stanley is attending the APA conference in Orlando, and he is turning 80!", I startle at how much time has passed since my first meeting with him 37 years ago. It feels like the blink of an eye with life-times in between. I arrange to attend, wondering what I might offer this remarkable man on this uncommon occasion. He has done so much for the world. Does the world know? I decide to honor my mentor, my colleague, and friend with a filmed retrospective of his life and works. Nothing fancy. Heartfelt.
With Stan's permission, I invite my filmmaking partner to the occasion. An International group of well-wishers arrive to celebrate Stan's Birthday in style. Many travel from far places. We record interviews with Stan and other fascinating folks. Told from the perspectives of people personally touched by his efforts, the retrospective begins and ends on the night of Stan's party. It weaves into its tapestry, archival footage and published works. I name it "Siren Song: The Life and Works of Dr. Stanley Krippner". We would like to have it ready for Stan's Mill Valley party this fall or an award presentation soon after. Realistically, our plan is to finalize editing by this year's end, and make it available for purchase in 2013. A gift from my heart, only modest production costs will be retrieved. After that, all proceeds go to Stan. Happy Birthday, Stan.
Saybrook University Alumnus Dr. George Aiken Appointed Clinical Director at Community Support Network in Sonoma County, CA08/31/2012
Saybrook University psychology alumnus Dr. George Aiken has been appointed Clinical Director at the non-profit agency Community Support Network (CSN) in Sonoma County, CA, a consortium of 11 facilities serving the mentally ill. Dr. Aiken (M.A. '01, Ph.D. '06), the former Director of Alumni Relations at Saybrook University, will guide and direct CSN's clinical staff and will facilitate staff training. He will also serve as the subject matter expert with respect to CSN's clinical practices, representing CSN in its contractual relationships with Sonoma County Behavioral Health.
A therapist since 1985, Dr. Aiken is currently a CA Licensed Psychologist in private practice in Santa Rosa, CA. His master's thesis at Saybrook was titled The Effect of Transcendent Experiences on Personality and Consciousness: An Existential-Humanistic and Transpersonal Perspective, which was chaired by Dr. Eugene Taylor. His doctoral dissertation was titled The Potential Effect of Mindfulness Meditation on the Cultivation of Empathy in Psychotherapy: A Qualitative Inquiry, which was chaired by Dr. Art Bohart.
Saybrook University Psychology Alumnus Dr. Ken Bausch Releases Body Wisdom in Dialogue: Rediscovering the Voice of the Goddess08/14/2012
by Jerry Kurtyka, M.A. (OS), Saybrook 2002
Body Wisdom in Dialogue is a guide book for understanding the feelings that enable and sustain heartfelt discussions as collective conversations, an ancient art which has been continued within tribal cultures. It is the second AGORAS publication by Thomas Flanagan and Ken Bausch, Ph.D. Saybrook 1998, and follows last year's book, A Democratic Approach to Sustainable Futures. In one way, Body Wisdom might have come first as it presents the underlying theory (or is it theology?) for the Structured Dialogic Design – SDD - process described in the earlier book.
Body Wisdom addresses how we surface ideas that are embodied below the level of our conscious knowing and then sort out the wheat from the chafe, primarily in a collective context. The authors state that such ideas are known through body wisdom, the repository of inner feelings that can speak to our mind in a conscious way (p. 32). For a collective, these ideas might relate to what are sometimes called wicked problems that resist analysis because there are so many entangled issues and unintended consequences which can potentially result from tackling the problem prematurely. On the other hand, SDD and body wisdom techniques are probably not the best approach to deal with emergencies that require immediate, expert action to avert further disaster (I am recalling the Fukishima nuclear disaster response last year, though SDD would likely be an excellent way to develop contingency plans for such an event).
One technique to elicit unconscious ideas is the use of a trigger question. Trigger questions play an important role to surface the unmanifested ideas from their embodied, unconscious state. The authors give the example of a new cohort of participants for an Indigenous leadership development program who are asked upon entering the program, "Where did you get your Medicine?" This type of existential question is designed to elicit self-disclosure and common group experiences, leading to more cohesion as the cohort evolves. One could imagine asking President Obama about his controversial healthcare program – "How will this be our healing?" – and then listening closely to his answer!
The authors cite the Greek myth of Psyche (mind) and Aphrodite to illustrate the dynamic tension between the unformed yet salient new idea and the current embodied wisdom and practice (Aphrodite), especially as these play out in an organizational context. New ideas exist initially like Psyche, nebulous and still emergent, unproven and undefined, but also pushing at us in some way to find expression. Aphrodite, then, is the current paradigm: its attractiveness; business model; culture; technology; known markets; profits and revenues; respectability (she is a goddess, after all). It is against and with Aphrodite that Psyche must prove herself, but first she has to know herself and to this end is given a set of trials.
So it is with salient ideas; we have to first know them before we can prove them to ourselves and others. This is where body wisdom comes in; it helps us to discern when we need to engage an important problem (p. 132). Not necessarily how to engage, which is more in the domain of our rational mental process and which can be assisted by SDD. Thus, the two domains of body/goddess andmind/reason find each other in a common purpose, as the authors describe.

Saybrook University Alumnus and Faculty Member Dr. Bob Flax Named to World Federalist Movement's Governing Body07/26/2012
Saybrook Psychology Alumnus Dr. Bob Flax (Ph.D. '92), also a faculty member and Chief Research Coordinator at Saybrook University's Graduate College of Psychology and Humanistic Studies, has been named to the governing body of the World Federalist Movement. The announcement was made at the WFM's 26th annual conference in July. Founded in 1947 to support the efforts of the United Nations, the WFM is a worldwide organization dedicated to promoting peace and the global rule of law: it is the primary sponsor of the International Criminal Court and the U.N.'s "Responsibility to Protect" initiative, among other major global efforts.
The Vice-President of the Democratic World Federalists, Flax's interest in global law and governance grew out of his work as a senior clinical psychologist for the California Department of Corrections, treating individuals, couples, families, and groups. He expanded his focus to include larger systems and studied organizational development and conflict resolution, and has worked to test these approaches in a wide range of settings, including businesses, non-profits, intentional communities, and the California State Prison system. Dr. Flax finally arrived at the next logical step – the way we work together as citizens of the world.
Bob lives in the San Francisco Bay Area and is a key faculty member in Saybrook's program in Social Transformation, which offers a body of practical knowledge to support students who want to connect the library to the street in pursuit of meaningful social change.
Dr. Flax's Saybrook Doctoral Dissertation was titled, From Beginner to Master: Changes in the Ways of Being, Perceiving, and Practicing of Psychotherapists as They Acquire and Develop Clinical Skill, and was chaired by Dr. Tony Stigliano.

Johan Santana is fine, no innings limit in 2012
Terry Collins said Johan Santana's arm is perfectly healthy, and there is no inning limit on him this season, according to WFUV's Amit Badlani.
Collins doesn't believe Santana was impacted by his no-hitter on June 1, and thought he pitched well in his last start against the Braves.
In the seven starts since his no-hitter, Santana is 3-4 with a 5.67 ERA in 39 innings pitched, during which he's struck out 34 batters and walked 14.

CANTON The St. Lawrence County Board of Elections has shifted the location of a handful of polling locations and informed affected registrants by mail.
There has been a realignment of some polling places, Republican Election Commissioner Thomas A. Nichols said. People should always check those yellow cards.
Some Canton voters who previously cast ballots at the Human Services Building on Route 310 were transferred to the St. Lawrence-Lewis Board of Cooperative Educational Services building on West Main Street or the Canton Fire Department on Riverside Drive.
The lobby of the Human Resources building was too small, Mr. Nichols said.
In Potsdam, residents who used to vote at Snell Hall will switch to the Potsdam Town Hall.

By TERRY WILLISGuest contributor
I struggled a bit this week to write something for this space. I have had a lot of people say they like what I write, but twice this week I heard that someone has not. I knew that would be the case going in to putting my opinions out where all could see them.
But as with all of us, I never really like to hear they are not accepted by all.
So when I considered the several topics I had thought about writing I now had a bit of self doubt about their validity. But there I went just the same, back to the keyboard ready to put my personal opinion back out here on the line.
I talked with someone this week that has some strong views on the statue in the First West intersection. She lives and works in that neighborhood and has been affected by it. I tried to get her to write to the paper, but she doesn't want people to be mad at her.
We get calls at the paper all the time with people who have issues with things that are happening or have been published in the paper and want something done about it. This editorial page is a great place to vent. You do need to have the courage to put your name on what you write, however.
That can be scary for some. Of course you can't attack someone personally in your letter either. But our paper and our community need the opinions of all of us to best represent the majority. What is happening in the community that you especially like or despise? How is this paper doing in covering it?
I will continue to put my opinions out on the line for any of you to take a shot at. A friend of mine was one of the people who said she disagreed with something I wrote. We are still friends and we disagree on many of our philosophies. I think that is why we get along.
Our new monthly feature, Shades of Gray, that Tom McCourt and I are doing will surely give much food for thought. I hope that despite your current views on any one topic we present, you will read both sides and learn a bit.
Thank you to everyone who gives us input. I hope to see an increase in letters to the editor, but if not at least keep calling us and letting us know how we are doing. The good, the bad or the ugly, your voice needs to be heard.

Ilha Grande is located on the south of the State of Rio de Janeiro, in the Ilha Grande Bay.
Abra�o is the main village in the island settled 11 nautic miles away from the main land.
It�s easy to get to the island, just take one of the ferries that go to Abra�o Village, the major port of the Island. The ferries leave from Mangaratiba or Angra dos Reis. The ferry company Barcas S.A. does the transfer of 1:30 long.
The crossing to the island is safe as the sea is mainly calm. There are not many daily transfers so it is recommended to arrive to the port in advance to avoid congestion, specially on holidays and long weekends.
Boats and schooners also do the crossing between the main land and the Island, the schedule varies so please consult us in advance. From Angra dos Reis you will certainly find one of these boats going towards the island. Private vehicles are forbidden so cars must be left on the main land. Mangaratiba and Angra dos Reis have safe parking lots near the piers.

Hi All,
New to this forum, I'm also quite new to PHP.
I have a script using the php mailer that sends an email blast to some of our customers, for the most part it works quite well and is received by most. But the odd customer says that they do not receive it, it is not in their junk box, and their network administrator said it wasn't even filtered out at their server level. Is there any reason why this could happen? or any common reasons I should troubleshoot first?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Type of Session: Scientific
Manipulation of arachidonic acid metabolism via the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) pathway is an active area of oncology research. Studies have established that COX-2 leads to tumor growth via prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) induction. Studies have also demonstrated that selective blockade of COX-2 can improve the anti-tumor efficacy of radiation therapy and chemotherapy. Furthermore, the use of COX-2 inhibitors has been found to reduce colon polyp formation in patients with familial adenosis polyposis (FAP). Stemming from this pathophysiologic observation with colon adenoma cells, the investigators of this trial sought to explore the efficacy of COX-2 inhibition in patients with clinically resectable rectal cancer. The COX-2 inhibitor was celecoxib, and it was tested alone as well as in combination with chemoradiation.
Materials and Methods
Author's Conclusions
Clinical/Scientific Implications
Attempts at optimizing cancer treatments continue to investigate and incorporate "targeted agents" as part of a multimodality approach. These agents focus on various pathways with known involvement in tumor growth and proliferation. Selective inhibition of the COX-2 enzyme process is an example of this, and this important phase II study from Vanderbilt University offers promising data on the efficacy of COX-2 inhibition in achieving meaningful pathologic tumor responses for resectable rectal cancer patients. Furthermore, the data shown here introduce a new, reliable, and easily attainable biomarker, such as urinary levels of a COX-2 pathway metabolite, to help follow and predict a given patient's response to treatment. Whether or not such a marker could actually help avoid surgery altogether in that subset of patients who are predicted to have a pathological complete response based on the biomarker remains hypothetical at this time. However, the potential use of biomarkers to custom-tailor treatment for certain patients (ie: those who might not be able to tolerate an extensive surgical procedure) makes further study of this arena very important. and worthwhile.

Comments about Salomon S-Lab Sense Ultra Shoe (Unisex):
Awesome trail shoe. Excellent durability for most components of the shoe, especially the sole. I have around 150 miles on the shoes and the soles show no wear. The shoes are very light weight and extremely comfortable even over long distances, such as 50k or 50M ultras. The rock plate provides more than adequate protection. My only issue with these shoes is the mesh durability. On the outside of each of the shoes, the mesh has opened up over my small toe. Not a deal breaker, but considering the fantastic durability of the rest of the shoe (and the cost!) would be great to have a more durable mesh in this area or some sort of thin overmold. The mesh breaths and sheds water extremely well. This is my third pair of these shoes and I highly recommend.

Comments about Salomon S-Lab Sense Ultra Shoe (Unisex):
I train and race 50k and 50M ultras in these shoes. They're super light weight and comfortable. The traction is great on dry or wet conditions, including snow. The sole is extremely durable and shows little signs of wear. This is my third pair. The only downside is I'm starting to see some holes develop in the mesh where my small toes rub against the material. Happens to every pair. Some improvements would be nice to make the mesh more durable.

Comments about Salomon S-Lab Sense Ultra Shoe (Unisex):
I know you are never supposed to run a race with shoes you've never tried before, but ... I did it. This was my first 50k, 7k+ elev, I wanted a light shoe. I received them a few days before, walked with them at home, felt that the fit was good and I could "risk it". The rubber protection in front seemed to constrain my toes too much, I put them under tension to expand, not sure how much that worked. It should be made more flexible in the front, don't need to constrain toes too much to ensure fit. I don't think that is a problem with break-in, the front of the shoe doesn't budge. Bottom line, I ran my 50k and I felt great in these shoes. They were hitting in the front on steep downhills, got a couple of small blisters on my right foot, very happy. Great shoe. It remains too expensive though.

Comments about Salomon S-Lab Sense Ultra Shoe (Unisex):
The Salomon S-LAB Sense is may be the best trail shoe on the market. It is relatively flat (4mm drop) and is very light weight. The shoe is durable and drys very quickly when wet. The toe box is protected with a cap. I have avoided many stubbed toes from roots, rocks and stumps because of this feature. The shoe is versatile enough for short to middle distance, but will also provide a comfortable ride over long distances. I ran a 100 mile trail race in my pair and wouldn't trade them for the the world. They are expensive from a pricing stand point, but worth every penny.

Comments about Salomon S-Lab Sense Ultra Shoe (Unisex):
I am normally a barefoot runner, I was looking for a new shoe to add to my tools for when my feet are tired but I would still like to get out on the trail. I have a hard time picking shoes because the toe box on most shoes doesnt fit me well, they always tend to be too snug. I picked up the S-Lab Sense and was impressed instantly. It is a great fitting shoe and is built on a minimal platform that easily alows me to keep my barefoot form but adds just a little cushin for tired feet. I have taken these shoes through dry rocky trails, trails covered in mud, and through ankle high streams and nothing phases them, they take it on almost as if i was barefoot. Salomon got it right with this pair of shoes. My only issue with them is initially they were just a little snug in the toe box but after just one run they loosened up and now they fit great.

Even though P!nk and Carey Hart have had some pretty public ups and downs, according to her latest song, their relationship really is "True Love"!
The 33-year-old pays tribute to her husband in the new video which features the pop star singing to her motocross beau as he rides around on a bicycle. There's also a cute family shot which shows P!nk and Carey playing with their daughter Willow.
Lily Allen, who's on the track, also makes an appearance at the end. Check out the P!nk's video for "True Love" featuring Lily Allen below (Warning: PG-13 language):
The edgy singer sure has come a long way since her "Stupid Girl" days -- earlier this month she tweeted "my life was once about whiskey, tears, and cigarettes ... now it's snot, tears and the color of poop. #bliss."
P!nk is probably one of the coolest moms out there -- check out some sweet pictures of her and Carey's little girl below!

The more I think about it, the more I like the idea of having Manny Machado play third base every day.
Machado brings much improved defense to third base and will allow Chris Davis to DH. He will allow Mark Reynolds and Wilson Betemit to platoon at 1B.
If Reynolds had played 1B against lefties this year, and Betemit against righties, they would have a .375 wOBA from first base. That is a whole lot better than the .314 wOBA they have gotten from the position this year.
The addition of Machado adds better defense, keeps Betemit from being forced to play third base, and improves the offense coming from first base.
If Machado can hit like a league average player and play the above-average defense he is capable of playing, this move will really benefit the Orioles.

What are your thoughts on giving RhoGam at 28 weeks pregnancy?
It's not something I'm up on, but here is a link to a website with a good, general explanation of the issues. What it lacks, however, is any discussion of whether there are any negative aspects to RhoGam treatment.
-- Henci
I have a student asking about this too. Do you have any other sources of guidance on the pros/cons of the prenatal rhogam shot?
My go-to website for reliable health information is MedLine Plus, the consumer health website run by the U.S. government. When I searched it using the terms "Rh incompatibility" it came up with this. I didn't check out the links, but I would predict that they will have the same drawback as in my original response, namely that there is no info on adverse effects. The standard for making an informed decision is to have both. Still, I have never heard or read anywhere that Rhogam has had adverse effects, and I think it would have stuck in my mind if I had.
[Positively Beautiful Birth Service]
As I understand it, Rhogam works by diminishing the mother's immune response and therefore preventing her body from producing antibodies to the foreign blood antigen. Considering this, there must be a consequence of routinely using the drug. Maybe the negative effects are minute or do not have clinical significance, but I am still weary of it's use during a normal pregnancy when the chances of the maternal and fetal blood mixing are extremely small.
Well, as I wrote, it isn't a topic I've ever researched. If you want to give it a try, here is the gateway to PubMed, the U.S. National Library of Medicine. If you find anything to the point, that would be great.

Leg of Lamb with Rosemary and Lemon Slow Cooker Recipe
I can not believe that March is over and it's already April. or at least it will be in only a few short hours...
Easter is this Sunday, and so I decided we needed a new lamb recipe. I made this a few weeks ago when my grandfather and uncles were visiting. It's lovely.
The Ingredients.
serves 8
3 pounds whole leg of lamb
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons prepared dijon mustard
1 tablespoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (1 lemon, juiced)
The Directions.
Use a 4-quart slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine honey, dijon, the spices, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Stir with a spoon to form a paste. Smear this paste on all sides of the lamb roast. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or on high for 4-5. You can check the doneness with a meat thermometer, if you'd like, but I usually cook until it's super tender and I can cut it with a fork. If your meat isn't as moist/tender as you'd like, you can cut it in half or in chunks and return it to the pot to soak up more moisture. I don't like dry lamb.
The Verdict.
I really liked this! The flavor of the rub is fantastic, and the drippings make a wonderful gravy. Serve with mashed potatoes and a big side of your favorite vegetables. Baaa.

So there's no liquid that I would need to use in my slowcooker with the meat?

if you cannot eat lamb can you suggest another meat that the sauce would work well with?
i can't do lamb or veal. just can't. :)

It looks like you used leg of lamb on the bone. Could you make this with boneless leg of lamb too, and would the cooking time change?
- April 1, 2010 at 4:51 AM
- Stephanie O'Dea said...
Hi Cove Girl,
Nope, no liquid required. The lamb gives off juice all on it's own.
Stephanie, I'd use a beef chuck roast instead.
Hi Lydia! I've used boneless plenty of times. There isn't quite as much juice given off, but the cooking time doesn't really change. If your meat isn't fork-tender near meal time, cut in chunks, then return to the pot so it can soak in more juice.

I should make this! I have another leg of lamb in the freezer, and it's one of those things that we don't prepare just "any old day" because it always seems like it needs to be a special event to eat lamb. Well, it's too small for company, so this sounds like the perfect solution. I LOVE lamb and would make any excuse to eat it!
- April 4, 2010 at 6:33 PM
- Jessica @ The Cooking Chick said...
This sounds like a wonderful recipe to have on hand. I be the long cooking method cuts out any of the 'gamey' flavor some people may find in the meat.

Hi Stephanie,
Greetings from Ireland.
I just came across your site a few weeks ago when my Canadian husband asked me to make pulled pork which or course I had never heard of and thought was a joke until I came accross your site.I love your site and your receipes and will have many a fantastic meal thanks to your posts.
I love my slow cooker too and think its great for winter or summer.
I am posting you a fantastic receipe tried and tested many times for lamb shanks in the slow cooker.
This is always a hit with my family and friends and has never lets me down so I thought you might like it.
This receipe can be used for lamb shanks or leg of lamb( if using for leg of lamb double all the ingredients for the sauce this will cover most of the leg. )
lamb shanks cooked in a redwine honey orange sauce.
4 Lamb Shanks trimmed
6 shallots or 2 med onions, peeled and sliced into rings
5-6 cloves of peeled sliced garlic
1 large orange or 2 small oranges, juiced
Rind of one large or 2 small oranges
1 cup of red wine
1 tble of Worcestershire sauce
2 tble of honey
2 tsp of cayenne pepper (I leave this out as I prefer it without but thats just my Irish pallete. If you like a bit of a kick in your dishes add it in)
1 cup of chicken or beef stock
3-4 sprigs of rosemary, (can use dried if you need to)
salt and pepper
2 tble butter& 1 tble olive oil
Melt the butter/oil in a skillet on medium/high heat. Add the lamb shanks or leg and brown them on all sides.(if using a frozen leg brown anyway)
While the lamb is browning, start the slow cooker on low heat with the lid on so it will be warmed up when you add the shanks.
After the lamb shanks are browned, leave the juices behind in the skillet and add the shanks to the slow cooker. Place the fresh rosemary on top of them. (Note: If you are using dried rosemary, wait and add it with the other spices in a few minutes).
In the juices left from browning the lamb, sauté the onions until the onions are starting to brown add the orange rind, the garlic. Simmer for another minute then add the red wine, Worcestershire sauce, the honey, cayenne pepper, the beef or chicken stock, the salt and pepper to your liking, and the dried rosemary if you chose not to use the fresh earlier. Mix all the ingredients and bring them to a simmer for about 5 minutes. When finished, pour the sauce over the lamb shanks in the slow cooker and cook covered on low for 6 or 7 hours.Change the temp on the slow cooker to high and cook for 1 more hour
After the allotted time leave the shanks in the cooker on warm and remove majority of the sauce from the slow cooker to a small pot and reduce the orange and honey sauce until it thickens.This makes a worderful rich glaze to pour over the lamb while serving.
I serve the honey lamb shanks with creamed potatoes,and butterd peppered boiled turnip, asparagus tips in winter rice and salad in summer. Enjoy.
Regards, Jacinta Cormier, Offaly, Ireland.

Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius made her first appearance since her department announced the new rule that mandates the provision of female contraception, as she defended the move as legally sound before lawmakers in Washington, Fox News reported.
"We certainly had our legal department look at a whole host of legal issues," Sebelius testified before the Senate Finance Committee on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops has said the President Barack Obama Administration's "accommodation" to the initial rule, which was announced on February 10, as it will still require Catholic-affiliated charities, hospitals and schools to offer contraception to female employees as part of their healthcare plans.
According to the news outlet, Sebelius faced questions from Senator Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), who asked about the legal justification for the move and future plans regarding contraception.
"We can work out a strategy where (Catholics) can abide by their religious freedom and the women employed in those institutions will have contraception," she said, alluding to the year-long extension that was granted to employers regarding the adoption of the rule.
POLITICO reported that Sebelius did not talk to Catholic bishops when drafting the latest version of the rule.

HONG KONG (MarketWatch) — Chinese listings might need a new health warning. But this time the warning is for accountants and banker sponsors, who face much stiffer penalties if fraudulent companies are allowed to list under their watch after new regulatory clampdowns in the U.S. and Hong Kong.
Retail investors have already fled Chinese listings as IPO markets have all but ground to a halt on both sides of the Pacific.
Hong Kong broke the trend last week with the $3.1 billion offering of PICC 1339, -2.18% which debuted with a 6.9% gain, although it first needed to offload half the offering to cornerstone investors.
China's regulator has taken another approach altogether to heal its sickly markets. Reports over the weekend suggested the China Securities Regulatory Commission has issued another ban on approving new issues on its domestic stock markets in attempt to shore up confidence.
No matter where investors are based, they all appear to have one thing in common — a loss of confidence in Chinese companies' IPOs.
Making sure investors are not being sold shares in crooked companies is the obvious starting point to turning things around.
Apple controls release of iPad Mini in China
Apple is requiring Chinese customers who want to buy a Wi-Fi iPad Mini to participate in an online lottery for the chance. But most of the buyers at an Apple store in Beijing appear to be making their purchases on behalf of scalpers.
Last week, the Securities and Exchange Commission charged the Chinese affiliates of the big four U.S. accounting firms with violating U.S. securities laws by refusing to produce audit work papers. It looks as if months of diplomacy to try to resolve this standoff have failed.
Hong Kong — where over half the market capitalization consists of mainland Chinese firms — is also pressing ahead with a regulatory clampdown.
On Friday, it was reported the territory's Securities and Futures Exchange was ready to introduce measures to make bank sponsors criminally liable if they bring companies to market that include false statements in their prospectuses
A regulatory reaction to the Chinese listing mania is predictable, when so many unfit companies are listed in a tide of China hype. Much the same happened with the dot-com bust and Enron or WorldCom.
But the different approaches from regulators could have far reaching consequences.
Hong Kong would argue with some justification that the problem with poor-quality Chinese listing is largely made in America. Read: China's U.S.-listed stocks are junk
Its latest move aims to stop bad companies reaching public equity markets, while the SEC is trying to round up the wrongdoers from the last listing bubble.
Both the U.S. and Hong Kong, however, have faced the same problem with overseas Chinese listings: trying to regulate and enforce across borders.
Put another way, experience has show it's a waste of time trying to go after the Chinese directors of companies under Hong Kong law. The U.S., however, may think it is worth proceeding with its rearguard action.

Any Indiana fans around? What would you say the Pacers team needs are now, and what would they be looking for in a Jermaine O'neal trade? (2 sperate questions)
In the NBA you basicly have 3 types of teams... 1 contenders (playoff teams who actually stand a little chance to win it) then you have rebuilding teams, those are young, have not too many big contracts and a bright future ahead. And the 3rd party are the teams stuck in the middle... like Indiana, Clippers, Philly etc. those teams are "ok" but they just don't have the talent to go all the way. If you're stuck there you either need some blockbuster trades to get it rolling or seriously start rebuilding. This is what Indiana needs to do IMO
nets need a big man like jermain o'niel
Rockets need a point guard (Backup or starter), depth (mainly backup center for Yao), a 3 point shooter, and a scoring power forward.
Right now the Pacers biggest need is someone to replace Jermaine O'Neal. we might be able to get it in the draft, someone like JaVale McGee, Marreese Speights, DeAndre Jordan, Kevin Love, or Hasheem Thabeet (I'd rather not get him). After that we need a point guard to play next to or in front of Travis Diener, unless we keep Murray (they are a good combo).
Celtics need a C --> we should draft Ante Tomic
|Sponsored Links
Ante Tomic on nbadraft.net:"At 7-1, has tremendous height and length ... Offensively, he is a complete player with a variety of post moves and great touch inside."
The opposite of Perkins, Tomic could be a nice sub for us
Orlando Magic Team Needs
Starting Center (allow Dwight Howard to move back to PF)
Starting PG (Jameer Nelson isn't cutting it)
Bench Depth at the following positions: F/C
Pacers need a new PF Okafor would be nice or trade JO+1st rounder to Philly For Miller+Dalmbert
Or trade Travis, Troy & Shawne for Elton Brand then match up salerys w/Charlotte's Okafor then trade J0 for Redd
DJ (our pick)
somthing like this or anyother ideas
(weirder things have happend)
Rockets needs in order of importance:
1. athletic 2/3. one who can create his own shot and make free throws.
2. upgraded PG. Alston has proven this year to be solid, but Adelman's system lives and dies by his PG.
3. backup center. a tall, athletic big man to fill the giant void often left by our beloved Yao.
Dreams: Rafer Alston and Shane Battier to Toronto for T.J. Ford and Carlos Delfino; Luther Head, Chuck Hayes and Bobby Jackson (Expiring Contract) to Memphis for Mike Miller; Draft a Center at #24; Resign Carl Landry and sign Mickael Pietrus with MLE. By the way, the money works on all of these moves.
...only in dreams.
[QUOTE=bbinthepark;5134074]the rockets definatly shouldn't be concerned with getting a PF. Scola and Landry make a strong tandem.

Alston+Jackson for Dunleavy and a S&T David Harrison who is 7'1 Big and athletic?
jazz could do with another back up point guard, a big center that can defend and if we can get a scoring guard to compliment d-will that would be a bonus

North Country 1, Milton 0
MILTON– Mariah Roberts had the only goal of the contest as the Falcons (3-7-2)picked up their third win of the year, defeating D II Milton (3-8-1) 1-0.
"It was a phenomenal game," said coach Chantelle Bouchard. "The defense was outstanding. Everyone played their positions and backed each other up when they had to."
After a scoreless first, Roberts knocked in the winner at 11:36 of the second half to give North Country the win.
Danielle Gabucci had six saves in the game for the Falcons.
North Country's next game is also on the road as they travel to Swanton to take on Missisquoi Valley on Tuesday at 4:00.
Wasps 53, Falcons 0
WOODSTOCK–The North Country (0-7) football team had a rough go of it against undefeated Woodstock (7-0) on Friday evening.
The Wasps racked up fifty three points and held the Falcons scoreless in the 53-0 win.
Next up for the Falcons will be another long road trip as they hit the road to take on Burr and Burton on Friday.
North Country 0, CVU 3
HINESBURG–Poor field conditions moved North Country's (2-8-1) match with Champlain Valley (10-1-1)to the JV field, but things were not much better there and the Falcons lost 3-0 to the Redhawks.
"It was a combination of a long bus ride, early departure time (6:30) and sloppy conditions that really hurt us in the first," said coach James McKenny.
The Redhawks jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the opening half.
A problem for the team cited McKenny, was the amount of anticipation needed to be able to play solid defense on a messy pitch.
But in the second, when the team could have just packed it in, they shined instead.
Adapting to the field, the Falcons played much better and shut down the number two team in the Metro.
"They are best team we have played all year," said McKenny. "We could have just folded, but instead we had an inspiring half of soccer."
North Country was led by Zach Tweed, Kody Halikas and Nate Marsh in the second.
Said the coach, "Nate played probably his best game of the year and Kody and Zach were terrific. Without them it could have been a CVU rout."
Logan Fortier also had a strong showing, stopping nineteen shots in the game.
Now the team will get ready to host Essex on Tuesday at 4:00 in their final home game of the season.
Lake Region 1 Hazen 0
HARDWICK–Shaquille Urie scored on a penalty kick with seventeen minutes remaining to give the Rangers a 1-0 win over Haze on Saturday.
The win moves Lake Region to 10-2 while Hazen sits at 4-7-1.
Next up for the squad is Danville at home on Tuesday.
