Brazil's Straw Hat project helps women leave abusive situations
A look at Switzerland's entrenched gun culture
11 Jun 2011 10:41 GMT | Latin America, Italy, Mexico, Pakistan
On Listening Post this week: Another journalist is murdered in Pakistan and the primary suspect is not an extremist group - it is the security forces. And sexism on Italian TV.
Pakistan is currently considered the most dangerous place on earth to report from. In just over a year, 16 journalists have been murdered. But the most recent case has sent a chill through journalistic circles there. Syed Saleem Shahzad was an investigative journalist and the Pakistan bureau chief of Asia Times Online. When his body was discovered - bearing signs of torture - the chief suspect was not an extremist group but, according to other reporters, Pakistan's intelligence agency.The media landscape in Pakistan is a pretty noisy, opinionated place but it often draws the line at the military and intelligence agencies - a line that Shahzad crossed. Our News Divide this week looks at the case of Syed Saleem Shahzad and the story that could have cost him his life.
In News Bytes this week: The curious case of an outspoken Syrian blogger who may, or may not have been arrested by the country's security forces; media freedom in Mexico continues to deteriorate as a newspaper's building is attacked and a missing journalist's body is discovered; Wikileaks frontman, Julian Assange receives the prestigious Martha Gelhorn prize for journalism; and the New York Times has a new executive editor, the first female in the paper's 160-year history to be given the role.
Media mogul and Italian prime minister, Silvio Berlusconi is about to go on trial for allegedly paying for sex with an under age prostitute. While this may be considered a sex scandal in Italy, what many Italians tend to overlook is just how sexually charged their television has become. Switch on the TV there today and you will be bombarded with images of women - whether they are dancing, reporting the weather or talking on chat shows - who are predominantly young, good-looking and scantily clad. Having attractive people on television is not a new phenomenon, but is it being taken too far in Italy? Listening Post's Meenakshi Ravi looks at the sexist representation of women in the Italian media, why that is and what is being done to change it.
Our Internet Video of the Week takes an addictive mobile phone video game and fuses it with a popular nursery rhyme, to make a rather insightful animation about the Arab uprisings. A lot of you will be familiar with the tale of the three little pigs, but for those of you who are not acquainted with the video game, it is called Angry Birds and the point is to demolish buildings (in this case regimes) by catapulting the birds into them. And if you look at the colour of these birds in particular, you will see the deliberate homage to another popular, addictive social media phenomenon - one that was instrumental in the uprisings. We hope you enjoy the show.Listening Post can be seen each week at the following times GMT: Saturday: 0830, 1930; Sunday: 1430; Monday: 0430.

Gas Saving/Performance Chip
What is the best chip to help boost gas mileage/all around performance of my ram? :4-dontknow:
i run a superchips programmer on my truck and it works amazing. I mean if your looking for a big change in things you are gonna need more than just a programmer but like I said the superchips is a definite noticable difference
Welcome from another Buckeye alum! Just a warning to stay away from the cheap program chips. All they do is spoof the computer into seeing a rich condition via the air intake temp sensor, or the O2 sensors. The computer then leans out the mix, raising your exhaust gas temp and setting you up for engine damage down the road. I just got a superchip 3715 , used on ebay, for $175. Just installed it yesterday, so no feedback yet, but all the reviews were pretty good.
Check and see if Diablosport makes one for your truck . A little pricey but seem to be the best ones out there .
SuperChips is the only way to go with our motor.
Superchips has this which is interesting;
Power Settings:
# Performance Tune(s) (all models)
# Towing Tune (truck/SUV only)
# SAVE Fuel Economy Tune (5.7L HEMI truck only)
User Options:
# Adjust shift points and firmness
# Adjust speed and engine rev limiter
# Electronically correct speedometer and transmission shifting for
non-stock tires, wheels and rear-end gear swaps
# Read and clear check engine codes
# Real-time vehicle sensor display
# Data log driver and vehicle performance
# Internet updateable
Coverage for 1999 - 2008 Ram & Durango 5.7L HEMI,
1999-2008 Ram 4.7 L, 1999-2007 Dakota & Durango 4.7L
I run the superchips on my truck and its amazing.
I have a superchip installed on my ram and I went from 14mpg to about 16.7mpg, and I have a heavy foot. The power gains were very noticeable as well.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Indianapolis gave Jeff Saturday a chance to fulfill his NFL dream.
On Thursday, he came back to thank the town and the team that embraced his improbable journey from undrafted free agent to NFL star.
Moments after signing his final contract with the Colts, Indy's longtime center and a key figure in forging a settlement to the 2011 NFL lockout officially retired with the team that brought him into the league 14 years ago.
"This does not happen for many players, especially many offensive linemen," Saturday said. "I'm excited to retire as a Colt. I mean, this is my home. This is what we've supported for so many years. I was known, no matter what team I was playing for, as a Colt. So it's good to put that horseshoe on and go out that way."
Colts fans will always remember Saturday for his gritty play and down-to-earth attitude. Nationally, he will forever be known as the voice of reason during the contentious lockout negotiations. Saturday lobbied on behalf of the players he represented and constantly urged both sides to remember that they would be best served by reaching a settlement rather than losing the "golden goose."
After the two sides agreed to a 10-year collective bargaining agreement, Saturday's embrace of Patriots owner Robert Kraft became an memorable image of labor peace. Kraft had just finished speaking about his wife, Myra, who died during the negotiations, when Saturday put aside Indy's bitter rivalry with New England, hugged Kraft and then credited him for "saving football."
"I have a tremendous amount of respect for Jeff Saturday. For more than a decade, I considered Jeff a fiercely competitive rival. After working with him in 2011 during the NFL labor negotiations, I now consider Jeff a friend," Kraft said. "I admire him for the leadership and professionalism he showed throughout the negotiations and I thank him for the compassion he extended to me during a difficult time. I know that Jeff was a great leader on the field, but I witnessed the leadership he possesses in the board room, and I believe that will serve his next employer very well as he transitions to his next career. I wish him all the best."
Saturday also acknowledged that his appreciation for Colts football played a big role in reaching a compromise.
"This organization is what I hope all the NFL teams strive to be. In every negotiation I was involved with the PA (players association) and the NFL, I used us (the Colts) as an example of what you should strive to and I make no bones about it," he said. "This organization is the best in the business and it will continue."
Before playing in his sixth and final Pro Bowl last month, Saturday had already said he was retiring. He even made a cameo appearance with the AFC so he could snap the ball one more time to his close friend, former Colt and current Bronco Peyton Manning. Green Bay cut Saturday last month, a procedural move that made Thursday's festivities possible.
Ironically, though, the move came exactly one year to the day after team owner Jim Irsay and Manning, the four-time MVP, appeared in the same room to announce Manning's release. Both men spoke then in halting tones as they fought back tears.
This time, it was more celebratory. Saturday and Irsay smiled and even joked about the formality of the one-day deal.
"I'm going to sign this contract and let Jeff come up and sign his portion so we can make it official that Jeff is a Colt today, and this is not costing me anything," Irsay said, drawing laughter. "And that's rare, but Jeff did ask for a new pickup truck so I told him I would consider that. "
When Saturday stepped to the podium, he responded in kind.
"Like he said, it cost him a lot more the last time than it did this time," Saturday said.

question? about mom from Egypt

Dh+Me=dd, ds, and baby #3 August 2014 Extended breastfeeding and natural birthing champion :)
Lol... that's me :)
It's a very long story, but yes, we did get out, but DH didn't :( We're back in Cairo to pack and finish up some things here, and then LO and I are leaving Egypt permanently, hopefully in November. We'll wait for DH's paperwork to clear in Canada. Not an ideal situation, but the best we could do given the circumstances.
Things are still a bit surreal here. There are tanks parked outside our house, and we had a visit from the police today because they thought we were shooting footage of the prison behind our house (DH and I are the subject of a documentary and they were coming to film some footage in the house). It's fine, but unerving to have 5 men with automatic rifles in your living room.
All in all, we're working on it, and there is an end in sight, which gives me hope. So sweet of you all to be thinking about us after all this time :)

October 9, 2015 | Broken clouds, 62 °F
Monday, Loretta E. Lynch, U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of New York, and George Venizelos, assistant director in charge, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), New York Field Office, announced charges of mail fraud against New York State Assemblyman William F. Boyland Jr. (D-Brooklyn).
The colors enamor some as they take the subway to and from work. For others it is an eyesore that defaces building and brings down property value. It is graffiti.
Those who spray-paint images and words on walls, buildings, and subways are often called "graffiti artists." But is it art? Or is it an act of vandalism?
Carol Gray, her head wrapped in a black scarf and her tearful eyes concealed by sunglasses, held up a photograph of her 16-year-old son, who was shot and killed by police.
The picture revealed a grinning boy wearing a blue cap and gown, his arms wrapped around his mother. It was taken the day he graduated from middle school.
"He was slaughtered," Gray told a room filled with reporters. "And I want to know why."
In November 2011, many Brooklyn residents came out to protest the controversial stop-and-frisk policy of the New York Police Department. During a protest in front of the 73rd Precinct in Brownsville, five protestors, Gbenga Akinnagbe, an actor on the HBO crime drama "The Wire"; Luis Barrios, Carl Dix, Morgan Rhodewalt and Gregory Allen were arrested and charged with disorderly conduct. All five defendants have been cleared of the charges.
For a third straight day, violent anti-police demonstrators gathered in East Flatbush Wednesday. By Thursday morning, 50 three police officers had been injured — one suffered a gash in the face after he was hit by an object tossed from a building — and 50 arrests reported.
The protests followed the fatal police shooting of a teenager over the weekend.
The Mayor's Panel for Educational Policy (PEP) voted to phase out or close 22 schools – 8 in Brooklyn -- at a raucous meeting at Brooklyn Tech High School Monday night.
The meeting lasted more than seven hours, attendees said, after more than 50 speakers beseeched the panel to end its policy of closing, rather than supporting, poorly performing schools. More than 150 schools have been shuttered under Mayor Bloomberg.
Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus is set to appear in Brooklyn on Monday as part of the RNC's "engagement and listening session with African American business, political and governmental leaders."
Authorities say they are looking for the suspects who set three puppies and a dog on fire.
The charred remains were found inside a bag on 91st Street near Ditmas Avenue, near a beverage distribution warehouse in Canarsie. A surveillance video shows a van arriving there after midnight Saturday. Several men are seen getting out carrying a large black garbage bag, setting it on fire near a trash bin and then driving off.
It's not clear if the animals were alive or dead when they were set on fire.
Eric Rodriguez, the commanding officer of the 70th Police Precinct, now has a shorter, but more prestigious title. The veteran cop, who formerly commanded the 68th Precinct in Bay Ridge, has been promoted from deputy inspector to inspector by Police Commissioner Ray Kelly.
Authorities are looking for the suspects who set four puppies and a dog on fire.
The dead animals were found in a bag on 91st Street near Ditmas Avenue in Canarsie area near a beverage distribution warehouse.
The ASPCA says the dogs were pit bulls or pit bull mixes.
Initially, authorities said a total of four dogs were found dead. Further investigation revealed an additional puppy.

"We Are The Few" is an original rock band out of Zumbrota, MN. The band was formed in 2013 when lead singer Amanda was asked to perform at local grunge venue Station 4. Being a solo artist, she felt the need to find a band for this particular venue. So Amanda sought the help of her brother John Krause and his colleague Jake Friedrich. After the first practice, they recognized the need for a bass player so they called in one of John and Jake's other colleagues Rob Erredge to fill the need.
After performing a short pre-show in their hometown, the band received an enormous response. Fans demanded 3 encores from the band! After that show, the guys decided to stand behind Amanda and her music, it was by far the best show they'd ever done and that is how We Are the Few was formed.

"What's that big black bird sitting on that post?" is a question I am frequently asked. Also, "Is it a crow or a raven?" is also asked.
Those questions sometimes can be difficult to answer. According to "The Sibley Guide to Birds," there are two species of ravens and four species of crows found in the United States. The common raven and the American crow can both be seen in Colorado.
We have seen many wildflowers in a variety of colors all season. However, one of the earliest spring flowers are those of Mahonia repens. Also known as Oregon grape for its clusters of blue berries in fall. This species is a low-growing shrub that bears yellow flowers both early and prolifically.
Other flowers come and go all season, usually with a big splash of blue gentians in July or August. Late August and early September, however, bring a vivid display of yellow flowers that are the last hurrah before snowflakes remove all color.
For many residents, it's no teddy bears' picnic.
Hungry bears are foraging for food in increasing numbers at mountain area homes. Last week a bear came through a partially opened window at a home in Conifer and helped itself to the contents of the refrigerator and other food in the kitchen.
Hard freezes and heavy spring rains have created a shortage of berries on shrubs that bears typically eat, prompting them to seek food from human sources this year, says Jennifer Churchill of Colorado Parks and Wildlife.
Many years ago, I saw my first lesser goldfinch in a yard in Idledale. When I first saw this little yellow-and-black bird, it was acting like a new warbler. That's what I thought it was.
I could not find any warbler that looked like it, and then noticed its thick finch-like beak. This sent me to the yellow finches, and there it was among the many goldfinches that occur here: the lesser black-backed goldfinch.
Many people have reported the sighting of an adult bald eagle that has visited Evergreen Lake several times this summer. I even saw it myself when a friend was driving me down Highway 74 one day last week.
The eagle was too high and it was poorly lighted, so I could not actually see its white head and tail, but I knew it was an eagle by the soaring bird's very flat appearance. They look like they were cut out of a piece of cardboard. Red-tailed hawks and other large birds that you might confuse it with have must more bend in their wings.
The first bit of fall color to appear in the Bear Creek Valley is the lovely orange-red of poison ivy, Toxicodendron rydbergii. Its unique color often appears to be in small clumps along the canyon walls, announcing the end of summer and the beginning of fall. One can hardly call the color red, for it is almost orange, an unusual color in the changing fall panorama.
Old Squaw Pass Road resident David Grasso is worried enough about sport shooting on public land near his home that he's thinking about moving.
"I don't want to sit at my kitchen table and get hit by a bullet," Grasso told a reporter. "It's kind of dangerous here. I've lived here 40 years, and I've had it."
Mid-August and instead of the lazy days of hot summer, it has been relatively warm days and good-sleeping cool nights. Sitting out in front of Elk Run Assisted Living, I watched two house finches bring their young to the feeder as well as seeing one adult American robin trying to find a place damp enough to provide one angleworm to feed his one youngster.
Although nearly full size, the immature robin still sported enough speckles on his breast to identify him and to show his age as a young member of the thrush family.
One of the most common roadside flowers of the late summer and early autumn is the yellow sweet-clover, Melilotus officinale. The common roadside plant, oddly enough, is not a native.
According to the books that I have, the white sweet clover is a native, but the yellow was introduced from Europe because it was known to be both a good honey and forage plant. It is also known as honey clover and yellow melilot.
It was a chilly 46 degrees at 6 a.m. last Thursday when a half-dozen hardy souls appeared on the Evergreen High School football field to exercise — just as the sun was rising.
They jogged, did pushups, stretched and lunged, all while breathing the fresh air, viewing outdoor Evergreen and hearing music from a small sound system. About halfway through the 60-minute class, the sun became visible above the treetops.

According to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, the Cinema 8 at the Shoppes at Northway will be showing movies for the last time on Sunday, January 21, 2007:
Northway Mall 8, a multiplex on McKnight Road in Ross, at the recently renamed Shoppes at Northway, will close at the end of business on Sunday.
"The decision to close the theater, operated by National Amusements, was made because the company had reached the end of its lease contract date, and the landlord made the decision to develop more retail space in the area currently occupied by the cinema," according to a statement by Wanda Whitson, director of corporate media for the theater circuit.

2003 Toyota Camry Solara Coupe SLE V6 2dr Coupe (3.0L 6cyl 4A)
Still chugging along at 120,000 miles.
Reliable; no major repairs needed. Changed battery twice.
Needed idle valve control cleaned about 5000 miles ago.
Getting only about 20mpg, though.
Probably burning a lot of fuel, but this car has enough power to zip me through traffic.
Maybe move the trunk release to somewhere outside of the glove compartment. It is safe to have it in there, but I once locked my keys in the trunk and even AAA couldn't save me then.
Don't take me bad, I really like the car for both performance and exterior design. However, blind spot is really big problem, you should buy extra blind spot mirror. Don't trust advertised JBL sound system, I give a 6 on 10 scale. No trunk release inside the car, very inconvenient. Also, you can't read the sound system face plate when there is sunny because of the weird angle.
Excellent acceleration, braking is above the average
Blind spot. Trunk Release mechanic inside the car. Angle for the driver to be able to read the sound face plate.
Just purchased with lots of miles. Car was a 1 owner with lots of TLC. Only complaints so far is the gas pedal sticks, and vibration in the steering wheel when applying the brakes. Overall very nice ride.
6 disc cd player, interior layout.
Toyota has to look into consumer complaints.
2003 Toyota Camry Solara Coupe SE 2dr Coupe (2.4L 4cyl 5M)
I have enjoyed this car, it rides better than my 2001 Accord did. The only problems we have had is the bearings in one wheel went out. Other than that all we have done is replace the tires and have regular maintenance done.
Gas mileage, ride
Seatbelt pulls on shoulder and booster seats don't fit very well.
I bought my Solara brand new in 2003. It was the first brand new car I'd purchased in about 25 years. I would not change a thing about this car. I absolutely love the way it handles, the way it looks and the fact that I haven't had to do anything to it except regular maintenance. I intend to drive this thing until it falls apart. I am so happy I bought the 2003 model because I have been completely unimpressed with the newer body styles.
the look, the JBL stereo, the moon roof, the insurance is reasonable

Is seeking perfection in our students, our schools and ourselves a healthy model for growth?
Isaac Pollack, Principal of New Orleans' Carver High School doesn't think so. He leads his school on the simple belief that "it's ok to make mistakes, just be better tomorrow than you were today."
This belief underpins a culture of constant growth in which Isaac's role is to maximize the growth of his teachers, his teacher's mission is to maximize the growth of the students, and the students are responsible for maximizing their own education. This "upside down pyramid" of responsibility provides a framework through which the entire school can engage in constant growth and be better tomorrow than they were today.

He's in his 80s but can still make women swoon. He's touted as the "best "James Bond ever and his classy manner and sexy accent have always made moviegoers flock to the movies! Sean Connery has been a motion picture staple for decades playing dramatic roles and even comedic ones, all with his own distinctive flair and no-nonsense attitude. Despite how harsh Hollywood can be, Connery has always given 110% no matter the role. Some might complain that none of his Bond movies are on this list, that's because I wanted to focus on his work aside from playing the iconic super sly secret agent. To quote Goldie Hawn's character in the 1996 comedy First Wives Club, when referencing Connery, "He's 300 years old but he's still a stud!" In honor his 83rd birthday today, here are the Top 10 Sean Connery movies.
10. First Knight: This 1995 romantic drama had Connery playing the famed King Arthur, who fell for Julia Ormond's Guinevere, who fell for Richard Gere's Lancelot. The story of the Knights of the Round Table was a perfect one for Connery, who exuded stature and bravery throughout the film. Though critics were mixed with their reviews, die hard Connery fans couldn't deny he was perfect for the role.
9. The Untouchables: In this 1987 historical crime drama, Connery joined Kevin Costner, Robert DeNiro, Andy Garcia. The film is Ness' (Costner) autobiographical account of the efforts of him and his gang, called "The Untouchables" to bring Capone (DeNiro) down during Prohibition. Connery played Irish-American officer Jim Malone, who aided Ness in his pursuit. Though Connery's character dies in an ambush, his performance was praised by Roger Ebert upon the film's release and he earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor in a Supporting Role.
8. The Hunt for Red October: This 1990 thriller based Tom Clancey's novel of the same name, set in 1984, had Connery playing Soviet submarine captain Marko Ramius, commanding a new vessel called "Red October," which featured a caterpillar drive, making it undetectable to radar. The cast also included Alec Baldwin, Sam Neill, James Earl Jones and a very young Stellan Skarsgård, who would later star in the Academy Award winning 1997 drama Good Will Hunting. Connery played a vicious Russian captain to a tee and the film won rave reviews, which was undoubtedly because of Connery's stellar portrayal.
7. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: Directed by Steven Spielberg, this 1989 action adventure romp had Connery playing the father of Indiana Jones, played by Harrison Ford. Set in 1938, Indiana went in search of his father, who had been kidnapped by Nazis while searching for the Holy Grail. Ford and Connery played masterfully opposite each other and brought out a real father/son bond throughout the movie.
6. Just Cause: In this 1995 thriller based on the John Katzenbach novel of the same name, Connery played a Harvard professor opposed to capital punishment, who's persuaded to go to Florida to investigate the conviction of a black man, played by Blair Underwood, for raping and murdering a white girl. The film also starred Laurence Fishburne, Ed Harris and a very young Scarlett Johansson. Connery superbly played a cat-and-mouse game filled with twists and deceptions with both Harris and Underwood and his powerful depiction of a man determined to learn the truth made this a riveting thriller right up until the last scene.
5. Rising Sun: Connery played a cop and expert on Japanese affairs in this 1993 crime thriller. After a professional escort is murdered at a party at the US office of a major Japanese corporation, Connery's Capt. John Conner is partnered with Wesley Snipes' Lt. Webster Smith to investigate. Also starring Harvey Keitel, Connery's refined stature against Snipes' more streetwise approach made them an ideal duo as they sifted through deceit and cover-ups to unearth the killer's true identity.
4. The Rock: This 1996 actioner was directed by Michael Bay of Bad Boys fame and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, who would later produce the Pirates of the Caribbean movie franchise. Here, Connery played a federal prisoner forced to help Nicolas Cage's character, Dr. Stanley Goodspeed, a top FBI top chemical weapons specialist, with capturing Ed Harris' character, an embittered Marine General Frank Hummel, who stole a stockpile of deadly gas weapons and was holed up on Alcatraz island with hostages. Connery infused his unique brand of wry humor mixed with brawn against Cage's unfaltering action abilities giving this blow 'em up bonanza something special.
3. Entrapment: This 1999 witty romantic thriller had Connery as an art thief who Catherine Zeta-Jones' insurance agent character, Virginia Baker, was charged with taking down…or was she? Moviegoers were delighted at the saucy pairing of Connery and Zeta-Jones as they played thieves who outsmarted the good guys and got into a number of scrapes themselves. Their chemistry was undeniable as Zeta-Jones' Baker and Connery's MacDougal prepared to pull of the biggest heist ever of $8 billion. Moviegoers were on the edge of their seats as the twosome played both sides and wondered if Baker and MacDougal would get away and romantically pair up in the end. Blended with comedy and action, it was a true cinematic treat!
2. Medicine Man: Connery played, Dr. Robert Campbell, an eccentric scientist conducting research in the Amazon rainforest in this 1992 romantic drama. Lorraine Bracco, of future Sopranos fame, played Dr. Rae Crane, who learned that Connery's Campbell had found the cure for cancer in the jungle but lost it. Their quest to re-discover the cure was then a race against time before a powerful pharmaceutical company threatened to wipe out the jungle and the cure in the process. Bracco and Connery's interaction was filled with intelligence and offbeat hilarity as they fell in love while looking for the cure for the "plague of the 20th century." Though panned by critics, moviegoers were taken in by the beauty of the rainforest and the riveting action in the film.
1. The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: This 2003 adventure fantasy, which was loosely based on characters from the comic book limited series The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen by Alan Moore, had Connery playing world renowned hunter/adventurer Allan Quartermain. Set in 1899, he and other fabled characters like Captain Nemo, chemist Mina Harker, who battled Dracula and became a vampire herself, invisible thief Rodney Skinner, the immortal Dorian Gray, Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde and Tom Sawyer, now a US Secret Service agent, were charged with preventing a madman start WWIII. Connery brought his sense of decorum and style to the role as he battled and made the ensemble cast a team. Though critically panned, the movie brought a number of legendary characters together for an edge-of-your seat adventure that delighted moviegoers!

This house, built in 1856, is one of the most famous examples of rural architecture in the valley of the river Simme, designed and built by the craftsman Hans Messerli. Very rich painted decorations and woodcarvings. It is called the 'Knuttihaus', according to the name of the family who built it.
Beautiful architecture,very nice photo.Sonja
Hello Sonja, many thanks for your kind words. This house is one of many others in the region, which is still in normal and daily use, not just part of an open air museum.
Super old house.
Tatiana, the architecture of the house front is in fact something special and interesting, not only because of the wood work and the painted decoration: --> the windows are arranged in groups of three, four and five (result: perfect optical harmony).
Kurt very interesting. Thanks. Tatiana.

It couldn't get any simpler than this!! I was munching on them in no time at all!! Extremely chocolatieeee and a great fix when I was having a major craving...totally hit the spot. I just made them yesterday, and I have gone and bought more devil's food cake mix to make more of these...two boxes actually, just so that I can double the batch...and they look so so so professional!! If you are looking for something quick, but looks great with very little effort...this is the one for you!!! Try it, you won't regret it. 5 +++ stars for taste, presentation and ease!!!
Dec, 2012
Following are the adjusted ingredient amounts from the Betty Crocker website (http://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes/fudge-crinkles/9b11c0b4-37d5-45ed-b417-a218792ebc35) for the new smaller (15.25 oz) size box of cake mix.
1 (15.25 oz) box Betty Crocker? SuperMoist? devil's food cake mix
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
Powdered sugar
Funny cookie story time... I made 5 different kinds of cookies for my Christmas baking this year, many more complicated recipes, lots of expensive ingredients.. made these last, as sort of an afterthought, was just curious about them. Hands down our favorite cookie! Can't get over it! Going to make more batches, adding peanut butter chips, then using the strawberry cake mix and white chocolate chips. The possibilities boggle the brain! But just as written, they are delicious! (I rolled the balls in granulated sugar) Thanks SOO much for posting this recipe! Update: I made them with the peanut butter chips, and they were awesome, but when I made the strawberry with the white chocolate chips.. well my daughter almost cried! She said they were the best cookies EVER! (2 of her favorite things) A total hit with all who have tried them!
When I made these the chocolate ones were disappearing so fast I decided to make more right then and there. I had a french vanilla cake mix so I made them with it, and rolled them in coconut and a little sugar. EXCELLENT! Both variations didn't last long (our friends were over watching football with my husband, they would clean a plate full and ask when the next would be ready! lol) VERY easy too! ~Lana~
What a fun and easy recipe to do with my toddler. I cracked the eggs and oil into containers, and he poured and mixed. He loves to help in the kitchen, and kept saying "made it" every time he ate a cookie. Thanks KAREN.
I made these tonight with a Moist Pillsbury strawberry cake mix and half a bag of white chocolate chips. I did not roll them in sugar at all. They were AMAZING!!! Some people posted that they were too "cake like" but I think they were over mixing the dough. I could not tell that these were made from a cake mix at all. Next time I think I will try a spice cake mix with raisins. Thanks for posting!!!
I have been making cake mix cookies ever since I was a little girl...so easy to make with endless possibilities. ~ I loved the idea of rolling white cake mix cookies in coconut! My daughters and I made these the other day. Yummy! ~Try substituting a 1/2 softened margarine (or for a crisper cookie, butter) in place of the oil for even more flavor.
OK, all I can say is Mmmmmmmm and EASY! They are still baking and I keep eating them as they come out of the oven. My 17 year old taste tester says "Pretty good Mom". This is a compliment! Of course he keeps eating them too. Instead of oil, I used unsweetened applesauce. I try to do this as much as possible to cut down the fat. They still turned out great and very soft & chewy. I'm thinking that spice cake with applesauce in place of the oil would make a very good applesauce spice cookie. That's next on my list. These will be my cookies of choice for bake sales from now on since I always wait until the last minute to make things. Thank you so much for this recipe. It's definately a keeper!
I made these to bring to work the other day, and they actually caused a "traffic jam" in the break area! I doubled the recipe, ended up with just shy of 5 dozen cookies. I also added a bag of Skor bits to the mix (because I add those to just about every cookie I make). Great recipe for those hour-before-bedtime, "Mom, I volunteered you to make cookies for the party tomorrow" occasions, too.
We make these at work but use brownie mix for them and just subtract a cup of water out of the mix. We use foodservice box size mix.

Summer's here and it's time to drive U.S. Route 99, also known as the Golden State Highway, to Cutler, Calif.
People in a hurry or otherwise uninterested in Central Valley destinations prefer the I-5 as a north-south route. but the I-99 has great charm. Every Californian should drive the I-99 at least once.
The owner, Mark Huggs, grew up in Bakersfield. He left town to go to culinary school and returned to launch the 24th Street Cafe.
Mark uses fresh, locally grown ingredients whenever possible. He makes his own sausages, grinds hamburger daily from whole beef, fresh-roasts turkey every day for the sandwiches and makes his soups and stocks from scratch.
The mashed potatoes are indescribably fantastic.
The staff is all local. They are so friendly that I wish they'd open a diner in our hometown of La Cañada Flintridge, just as a sociological experiment.
By 10 a.m., the 24th Street Cafe is packed. The customers begin to wait outside, but there are no lines. Mark treats the patrons to ample patio chairs, free coffee and an ongoing performance by a local acoustic guitar trio. The lead singer sounds exactly like Elvis.
As for the Bowen Bloody Mary, the drink is made with local "small batch, handcrafted American Whiskey" made by Wade Bowen, in Bakersfield.
Further up the I-99, in the town of Visalia, there's a highly-ranked restaurant called The Vintage Press www.thevintagepress.com . Their food has been praised by Frommers, Fodors and our mothership, the Los Angeles Times. The restaurant was founded by the Vartanian family in 1966. The antique bar was shipped from San Francisco. The square cocktail tables are antiques from the Bank of America, complete with marble tops. The cocktails are muddled from scratch. Their wine list has received awards from Wine Spectator. I ordered halibut and a salad. Len had a steak. For dessert there was fresh, homemade plum sorbet. All the ingredients were locally grown. Simply delicious.
Summer's here, at last. Time to hit the road for a while and then return, home to La Cañada Flintridge.

A PERFECT ENDING DVD To Be Released 2/5
Award winning Writer/Director Nicole Conn (Little Man, Elena Undone) returns with a glossy, sexy and fun romantic drama guaranteed to earn her a fresh array of fans when A PERFECT ENDING debuts on DVD February 5th from Wolfe Video. It will be available early across all digital platforms on January 8th. What starts as a comedy of errors ends up a uniquely erotic journey when a straight, married woman seeks out the sexual services of a high-priced call girl. The cast includes TV icon Barbara Niven (The Rat Pack), Jessica Clark (HBO's "True Blood"), John Heard (Home Alone, Beaches), Morgan Fairchild (TV's "Chuck," "Friends"), and Rebecca Staab (TV's "The Young and the Restless").
Rebecca Westridge (Barbara Niven) is elegant, wealthy and proper - an upstanding wife and mother with three grown children, a swanky estate and a horrible husband (John Heard). When she confesses her dissatisfaction with her joyless love life, her friends set her up with an exceptionally talented high-class call girl named Paris (Jessica Clark) - and, needless to say, the lives of both Rebecca and Paris are changed forever.
A PERFECT ENDING has a runtime of 106 minutes and is not rated. The DVD will feature bonus materials including behind-the-scene featurettes, deleted and alternate scenes.
