- Prepare pancakes following a classic recipe (see 'Goes well with').
- Lightly brush a baking sheet with sunflower oil. Tip the caster sugar into a medium-size saucepan, add 2-3 tbsp of water and set the pan over a low-medium heat to allow the sugar to slowly dissolve into the water. Bring to the boil and continue to cook until the syrup becomes amber-coloured caramel.
- Working quickly, tip the blanched almonds and salt into the pan and continue to cook for 30 secs-1 min until the caramel turns deep amber and the almonds are toasted. Tip the praline onto the oiled baking sheet and leave until completely cold and hardened. Break the praline into chunks and whizz in the food processor until coarsely chopped.
- To make the chocolate sauce, combine all the ingredients in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir occasionally until smooth and silky. Remove from the heat and cool to room temperature.
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Lay one pancake in the bottom of a 20cm springform tin and spread over 1 tbsp of chocolate sauce. Scatter with chopped praline and top with another pancake. Continue in this manner until you have used all 12 pancakes, topping the stack with a pancake.
- Cover the tin with foil and bake on the middle shelf of the oven for around 20 mins or until hot through. Gently warm the remaining chocolate sauce, cut the cake into wedges and serve scattered with the remaining praline chocolate sauce, and a bowl of lightly whipped cream alongside.

Comments, questions and tips
I took on board all the comments and made this in stages assembling and serving a couple of days later. The sauce definitley needs to be put in the fridge for at least a few hours though preferable overnight. More praline is needed and when cooking/heating through you need to put the tin on a tray or else the sauce will run through! I cut into slices straight from th efrige and then gave it a short blast in the m/w but only about 20secs.Not sure I would make again but it was a treat fro staff at school.
I made this last night and brought it into the office today. It seems to be going down well some have had it hot and some have had it cold so I dont think it matters. I did cheat a little and used ready made pancakes which I think let it down slighty, but otherwise this is a good and easy recipe. Thumbs up from me :-)
My son made this last weekend and it was delicious but we found the sauce didn't turn out as thick as it appears in the picture, and we had loads left over. (perhaps it wasn't quite cool enough - allow plenty of time for cooling or do it the day before). Well worth the effort though, very impressive.

PITTSBURGH — The Bush administration said it will commit an additional $60 million in the 2005 federal budget to Clean School Bus USA, a program for replacing and retrofitting older school buses to reduce emissions.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Mike Leavitt announced on Jan. 30 the plans to boost Clean School Bus USA, which began last year with a budget of $5 million. Leavitt said that with a budget of $65 million, the EPA will be able to expand the number of participating school districts across the country from 17 to about 220.
Leavitt made the announcement at an elementary school in the North Allegheny School District, which was one of the first participants in the program. In October, the district received a $125,000 grant from the EPA to retrofit its fleet of 100 school buses with emissions-controlling catalysts.
"This funding demonstrates the president's commitment to protecting children's health and cleaning America's air," said Leavitt. "It's a big increase because, as we see here, this program works."
Clean School Bus USA provides grants for replacing older buses with newer ones or retrofitting them with emissions-reducing devices such as diesel oxidation catalysts, which use a chemical process to break down pollutants in exhaust. According to the EPA, the catalysts can reduce particulate matter by at least 20 percent, carbon monoxide by 40 percent and hydrocarbons by 50 percent.
The program's initial goal was to upgrade the nation's entire school bus fleet of approximately 444,000 vehicles by 2010.
For more information, visit www.epa.gov/cleanschoolbus.
In a related matter, the National School Transportation Association (NSTA) has extended the deadline for applications for its Clean School Bus subgrant program, which is tied to the initial $5 million funding allocation from the EPA.
"Many members were unable to work with the local school district partners during the holidays to put together an application in time to meet the deadline," said Jeff Kulick, the NSTA's executive director.
The new deadline is March 31, 2004.
Kulick said another hurdle for NSTA members has been a lack of familiarity with the application process and the required federal forms. "In order to encourage private-sector participation, EPA has given us permission to simplify the process for members," he said.
The revised application announcement is available at the NSTA's Website at www.yellowbuses.org.

Voting starts for Shed of the Year 2013
It's that time of year again when the eyes of the world turn towards our back gardens and more specifically our sheds – yes, voting has opened for Shed of the Year 2013 (pictured is last year's winner, the 'Woodhenge' pub owned by John Plumridge from Shrewsbury). To vote for one of the 1975 sheds that have entered, click here. As in previous years there are various categories so make every vote count. Voting shuts at midnight on May 31 at which point the category winners voted for by the public will then be discussed by the judges, Sarah Beeny, Kevin McCloud, myself, the organiser of the event Uncle Wilco and last year's winner John to come up with an overall winner who takes away £1,000 and other goodies. The winner will be announced in National Shed Week which starts July 1.
Live in an airfield control tower
We posted yesterday on the blog about a Grand Design now up for sale in the Isle of Wight but if you want something rather more unfinished, how about a former airfield control tower at Condover, Shrewsbury? It has planning permission for conversion to three storey living accommodation with roof garden and is probably one of the few chances you'll get to buy a property which features a former fire engine shed. It also includes just over 14 acres of land. Other properties for sale in Shrewsbury include The Engine Shed at Benbow Quay, a two bedroom terraced house for £39,950; an eight bedroom detached house in Kennedy Road for £895,000; and a new four bedroom terraced house for £328,000 at Abbey Foregate.
One in ten renters at gas safety risk
One in ten people who privately rent their home could be at risk from gas safety hazards, Shelter and British Gas are warning. Research commissioned by the two organisations questioned more than 4,300 private renters in England and found that one in ten said that in the last year their landlord or letting agent had failed to ensure a gas safety check was carried out in their home. An annual gas safety check and certificate is required by law, and is the legal responsibility of the landlord. Gas safety checks pick up a range of problems including faulty boilers and are vital in helping to prevent gas leaks, explosions and carbon monoxide poisoning. Landlords who fail to meet gas safety regulations in the homes they rent can face fines and even imprisonment. Until 30 June, British Gas is offering a free CP12 gas safety certificate to landlord customers who sign up for their Homecare insurance package. To find out more visit www.britishgas.co.uk/whatwedo.
Buy-to-let sector still growing
The Council of Mortgage Lenders has reported gross mortgage lending of £4.2 billion across 33,500 mortgages to buy-to-let landlords in the first three months of 2013, compared to £3.7 billion over the same period last year. There are now around 1.46 million buy-to-let mortgages in the UK, accounting for around 13% of the total number of mortgages. CML director general Paul Smee said: "The buy-to-let mortgage market is performing well, against a backdrop of robust landlord and tenant demand for good quality rental property. Loan performance compares favourably with the owner-occupier sector, and buy-to-let continues to grow as a proportion of the overall mortgage market."

According to TheNation.com, there have been over 32,000 UFO sightings in the United States between 2000 and 2007. There have been 352 incidents of deaths caused by lightning. During that time, according to ProtectingtheVote.com, there have been a total of nine cases nationwide of possible voter impersonation or for a better term - voter fraud exposed. So, why is this relevant? Because Republicans think "voter fraud" is the most destructive attack on American society today. So what do they do? They make it harder for certain people to vote.
Republicans, according to the BrennanCenter.org, are pushing more stringent voter requirements such as requiring photo IDs (34 states), changes in voter ID laws (34 states), requiring proof of citizenship (17 states), restricting voter registration (16 states), reducing early and absentee voting (nine states), making it harder to restore voting rights (two states). Republicans control legislatures in most of these states. Who will be affected by these voting restrictions in these states? Young adults, the poor, older voters with no IDs, Hispanics, blacks, students.
Was voter fraud a pressing issue for Republicans prior to the 2008 election? No. Is there a hidden agenda being pushed in predominantly Republican-controlled states in order to make it harder for up to five million voters in these states to vote? No doubt. Who did the majority of these voters that will bear the burden of tougher voting laws vote for in 2008 and probably will vote for again in 2012 ? Barack Obama.

Rational discourse
Commentary regarding the recent prevalence of anti-American violence in many foreign, Muslim populations is ignoring a major point of the discussion. While I commend the defense of Islam from stereotypes of brutality, I refuse to acknowledge the conclusion that all must tread lightly on matters of religious belief so as not to offend. The anti-Muslim film which served as an indirect catalyst for recent events may very well have warranted a response, but most will agree that violence is an unacceptable one.
Rather than limit freedom of speech, we should encourage those offended to exercise this faculty by addressing inaccuracies or misinformation through rational public discourse. Unfortunately, religion remains in a privileged position outside of open dialogue, whereby it functions without accountability. We refrain from discussing that any faith-based belief system is by its very nature capable of fundamentalist extremism. Instead, we must stop focusing on the reality of Islamic extremists and start discussing the possibility of such extremism inherent to all religions. By entering public discourse we may rightfully criticize religious practices and their justifications as they relate to a world shifting towards democratic principles, all the while providing a nonviolent alternative to settling disputes

Third-party options
The front-page story in the Sunday CJ confirmed what we already knew: Mitt Romney will win Kentucky. It's not even close; President Obama has no chance of winning the state. Therefore, anyone who is dissatisfied with either Romney or Obama should strongly consider voting for a third-party candidate such as Jill Stein (Green) or Gary Johnson (Libertarian). Once support for these third parties reaches double digits, perhaps national news media organizations and the Commission on Presidential Debates will take them more seriously. (Kudos, by the way, to the CJ for including statements of support for Stein and Johnson from young voters in the Sunday Forum.)

Hit and run
Last Monday, while obeying the cross-walk signal at Second and Kentucky streets, I was hit hard by an unknown vehicle ( the driver had to have known but did not stop). I had the right of way. I could focus on that, but instead I am overwhelmed by the good I saw. Rachel, the JCTC student who called 911. Ingrid, the U of L nurse who called my spouse so we could talk. An unknown young man who tried to get the plate by chasing the vehicle on his bike. The police officer, the EMTs, the nurses, techs, residents, hospital staff, and doctors who talked me through the nearly unbearable pain. I am exceptionally lucky, not just because I survived but because I experienced so much care. I won't probably remember all that happened or get the satisfaction of someone being held accountable. But I have something far more healing - the kindness of strangers that kept my injuries from being worse, that made sure both my physical and emotional needs were met, and who helped me continue my journey of healing.

I just do not understand why the CJ insists on putting "Doonesbury" in the Sunday comics section. After lighthearted chuckles about Rat in "Pearls before Swine," and seeing Dagwood Bumstead in trouble again, I read the ramblings of an anti-traditional values, liberal talking points propaganda rant. Please move this to the Forum section where it belongs.

LEE COUNTY, Ga. -- The Bread House & Granary along with DIG Garden Center are hosting a Spring Family Festival Saturday to benefit Graceway, officials say.
Beginning at 9 a.m. at the garden center at 847 U.S. Highway 82 West at Oakland Plantation, local artists will showcase their work which will range from antique engineering, painting and photography to sculpture, jewelry and painted glass.
The event will also feature music, food from the Knights of Columbus, baked goods from the Bread House and activities for children including pony rides.
An onsite tomato planting class will be offered as well.
The festival is designed to cultivate not only a love for the outdoors and art, but also donations for Graceway, which helps women recover from alcohol and substance abuse.
Liz Dixon, Graceway development director, said commended Bread House and DIG for supporting the facility, a non-profit, faith-based recovery community.
"We like to use that term because we are a long-term treatment facility," Dixon said. "We're focused on changing lives and that takes a deliberate, long-term approach."
Dixon said that Graceway relies on the families of its clients and the generosity of the community to keep its doors open and receives absolutely no funding from local, state or federal government sources.
"Everybody always talks about wanting to make a change in the community, but they always say, 'but what can I do?'" Dixon said. "This is the perfect opportunity to help us make these miracles come true in the lives of their female friends, family and neighbors."
All of the proceeds from Saturday's event will go to help fund Graceway's indigent scholarship fund which covers the cost of care and treatment for women who wouldn't otherwise be able to afford it.
