Pure comfort food, this Baked Penne has a meaty, creamy sauce and lots and lots of cheese.
As a food blogger, it's sometimes embarrassing to admit that my kids aren't the most adventurous eaters. And by that, I mean they are picky.
Well, I shouldn't include them all – Camden will pretty much eat anything I put in front of him. That kid can eat. In fact – this meal? I think he ate 3 servings. More than I did. More than his dad did. Definitely more than his brother and sister. But I'd say it's pretty impressive when a 15-month old can out eat his mom and dad.
We still struggle most nights with his big brother. He knows that he either eats what is for dinner, or nothing, and the majority of the time, he eats nothing. I promised myself before I became a mom that I wouldn't become a short order cook. But there are a few things that he will eat almost every time. Homemade pizza. Meatballs. Sometimes tacos. And pasta.
It's a good thing that I like pasta too, because it becomes my go-to quite often these days.
But really – what's not to love (for the whole family) in this dish? A meaty, creamy red sauce, pasta, and lots and lots of cheese. This is comfort food that I will totally get behind any day of the week.
- 8 oz penne pasta
- ½ lb ground beef
- ½ medium onion, chopped
- 1 (24-oz) jar spaghetti sauce
- ½ cup sour cream
- 6 oz sliced Provolone
- 4 oz shredded or sliced Mozzarella
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan
- chopped parsley
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente. Drain.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet, brown the ground beef. Add the onion and cook until softened. Add the spaghetti sauce and allow to simmer for 15 minutes. Stir in the sour cream. Add the drained pasta and stir to coat.
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Spray a 2 quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Pour half of the pasta into the baking dish. Top with half of the Provolone and half of the Mozzarella. Pour the remaining pasta on top and top with the remaining Provolone and Mozzarella, and sprinkle the Parmesan on top.
- Bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 30 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.

I can see why this dish pleases everyone – it looks great!!
Love how easy this penne is! AND all that cheeseeeee…I would do anything for that cheese!
Please re-consider being a short order cook for your son. My Mom would have been but dad forbid it and to this day there are foods I was forced to eat that I still HATE!! I would insist that he try everything that is put in front of him but if he REALLY doesn't like it make a grilled cheese on ww bread and some tomato soup. Make sure he takes a vitamin supplement. Continue to offer him new tasty things that he MUST taste but then give him the same thing (grilled cheese etc) every time and eventually he may start eating other things as grilled cheese will cease to thrill him. Worth a try.
This looks so much like the one we make, which is also from Allrecipes (love that site) and is fantastic! I'm kind of drooling over your baking dish 😉
Are kids sound like opposites. Grace and Eden are fantastic eaters, but Christian…oh my! That kid pushes us to our limits at any meal time. Last night, he wouldn't even touch our dinner until he had Josh's fork. And then, happy as a clam picking up pieces of enchilada and the heavens rejoiced and the angels sung because there wasn't anymore screaming at our table, lol!
What a great recipe for a go to dish. It's funny, our 11 month old eats more than our 3 year old. I think you're striking the right balance with this dish by offering something that you know your children will like, but at the same time something your whole family can eat and enjoy.
We also eat as a family and will not make something additional for just the 3 year old. It just simply cannot be done. That being said, we don't require her to eat anything. We fill up her plate with both things that we know she will eat and like and some new things. If she tries the new things great. If she only eats the things we know she likes, that's fine too. I hate to make dinner time a struggle by requiring a bite of something. Everyone ends up the loser. However, if she finishes all of her peas and wants more before trying other things I say that I'm happy to give her more peas, but she needs to try a bite of "X". She usually does and then she gets more peas. But, if she'd rather not have the bite then that's fine too. But, I'm not making another meal in addition to the one I already did.
I make this dish all the time too. Baked pasta is just irresistible
I love pasta especially when it's loaded with meat and cheese cheese cheese and more cheese.
Hello gorgeousness! Pinned
I feel the same way. I struggle everyday with two little picky eaters too, but I know they would LOVE this!
My picky eater son is slowly branching out to new things, but it's been 8 years of hard work. Can't beat a recipe that makes the whole crew happy!
I wish my face was living inside that right now.
Looks so good, Deborah! I love baked pasta dishes because they are so easy and absolutely delicious! I want this for dinner!!
Holy cheesy, mouthwatering goodness! I want all of that on my plate, like, right now.
I can definitely see this baked penne being a major crowd pleaser!
Oh wow, this looks like pure bliss! So comforting, just what I need on these cold nights
Heya hi..wot cn v use instead of beef..
If i hv make it for a vegetarian person..

Mormon Voices, a leading organization working to shed light on questions surrounding the LDS Church in the media, has blasted the nation's largest atheist organization, American Atheists, for releasing a new billboard campaign targeting the Church for its treatment of black and gay people.
"Despite a history of never having segregated congregations and numerous ordinations of black males to the priesthood from its earliest days until the 1950's, like virtually all other identifiable groups (including atheists), the LDS Church has not been perfect in its treatment of blacks," John Lynch, Managing Director of Mormon Voices, explained in an email to The Christian Post on Monday.
"MormonVoices condemns divisive political grandstanding, as is evidenced by these mobile billboards, which serve only to prevent progress in the Church's relationships with African Americans and members of the gay community," he added. more >>
For the second time a federal appeals court has ruled the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act is unconstitutional, ruling it violated the Equal Protection Clause by barring same-sex couples from legally marrying. While legal scholars, along with pro-gay activists, are celebrating their success, they are also concerned that the ruling may be too favorable and not be upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court.
The case the Second Circuit ruled on involved the deceased partner of a lesbian couple who was married in Canada in 2007 but lived in New York. The state did recognize their marriage as a legal union. When one of the women, Thea Spyer, died in 2009, her "wife," Edith Windsor, now 83, was prevented under Section 3 of DOMA from claiming an exemption for the federal estate tax available for surviving spouses because only couples of the opposite sex could qualify for the exemption.
The appeal court's ruling in essence said that Congress gave no good legal reason why homosexual couples should be treated any differently than heterosexual couples. It was Section 3 that the appeals court overturned. more >>
Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney has secured newspaper endorsements in the major swing states of Ohio and Florida. Newspapers in other states have also announced their support for the former Massachusetts governor.
The Columbus Dispatch in Ohio and The Tampa Tribune in Florida on Sunday recommended voting for Romney.
The Dispatch endorsed Romney a day after Ohio's Cleveland Plain Dealer newspaper threw its support behind President Barack Obama. Dealer had endorsed Obama also in 2008. Akron Beacon Journal also backed Obama. more >>
From the tone of my posts yesterday one may assume that I am anti-government and anti-politics. Nothing could be further from the truth, here are some convictions I believe…
#1 – As Christians We Are Commanded To Pray For Our Political Leaders. (See I Timothy 2:1-2.)
It's sad…but there are people that have spoken out against our current president and how "evil" they perceive him to be but have never gone to their knees and lifted him up in prayer. (BTW…it's really hard to hate someone you are constantly praying for!) more >>
The final presidential debate takes place Monday night in Boca Raton, Fla. Here are seven predictions about what may happen in the foreign policy debate.
Relitigating Benghazi
In one of the most memorable moments of the debate last Tuesday, Romney flubbed an opportunity to challenge Obama on lingering questions about the Sept. 11 attack on an American embassy in Benghazi, Libya. more >>
The race for the White House is still tight in the two largest battleground states of Florida and Ohio after the second presidential debate. President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney are also tied nationally.
The latest Fox News poll of likely voters in Florida has Romney with 48 percent support and Obama with 45 percent. And in the CNN/ORC International poll of likely voters in the same state, 49 percent said they support Romney, and 48 percent said they back the president.
In Florida, which has 29 electoral votes, Romney's favorability stands at 55 percent versus 51 percent for Obama, according to the Fox poll. more >>

Dr. Marc Levine said, "We can actually replace the valve without doing major surgery."
The procedure is possible because of a new multimillion dollar operating room at Covenant Medical Center that incorporates the equipment of both surgery and high-tech radiology into one.
Dr. William Springer said, "Up until now we really haven't had a therapy for those who were too weak for an open-heart surgery but still were functioning human beings. Now we do."
"Either through small incisions in the groin or small incisions in the chest we are now able to replace aortic vales that normally would require a much more detailed operation," Springer said.
Braxon had been a music teacher and still enjoys playing. One of his doctors told him to do something – "doctor's orders" so to speak.
"A couple weeks later he sent for me. He said, 'Bring your horn with you,'" Braxton said.
Covenant Health System said it is the only hospital with the TAVR technology between Dallas and Albuquerque.

However there are 2 problems that impede usability of the phone:
1) Creates audio problems. The border of the case goes entirely around the phone with grills on the bottom for speaker outlets. Unfortunately one of the iPhone 5's mics used for noise cancellation is on the bottom as well. This creates a problem when making phone calls depending on your environment. If it's a little bit noisy, you will get a static feedback that comes through your earpiece and is extremely disturbing during a call. Other people don't hear it, it is just on your phone. Using no case or other cases which don't cover the speaker/mic, this feedback doesn't occur.
2) The volume and power buttons are very stiff making them difficult to press. The material the buttons are made out of do not allow enough give, so you have to push very hard towards the front of the buttons to get the inside extension to click the phone.
Future revisions of the case may be able to correct these problems or Apple may put out a fix for the static feedback issue, but for now I'm using a case that doesn't cover the mic outlet.
The TPU rubber that they use stretched out horribly, for me, and one little piece decided to detach from the polycarbonate frame, to the point where I think I'm going to replace the case with something else.
The fabric seems to have lasted all right, though it does end up getting dirty under normal use (it probably needs to be washed periodically; I bet shampoo would do the trick). There were a few frays and times that it decided to peel up a little since I got it, but I was always able to trim the frays off and press the peeled parts back down.
Reducing the rating to 2 stars. It's a great case while it lasts, but I think ~$30 is too much to pay for something that stays in good condition for less than 6 months under normal use.
--- Initial Review ---
- Looks to be decent to good protection (haven't tested it.. :) )
- The texture is awesome
- Doesn't get slippery when you hold It for a long time
- I think it looks really good
- Likely to get dirty, I suppose (not a problem for me so far, as I tend to be very careful with electronic devices)
- Feels like it absorbes the moisture from your fingers to some extent. I think I prefer this to it becoming slippery (as in a plastic/rubber case), but its still not my favorite
- The screen side of boarder, above the lightening connector is a bit too bendable, since there's nothing to support it. They couldn't have made it any other way, I think, and it doesn't really bother me, but still
- The lock button is noticeably harder to press. I'm fine with it, but it is a little annoying
- Dust tends to accumulate on the phone around the connectors and side switch, since they're open. Unavoidable, and not bad..Read more ›
Edited to add - Originally a 5 star review, written in Oct 2012. But by Feb 2013, the case is cracking - the plastic side bits are bending/buckling and one has actually broken. It's starting to catch on things and my son wants a new one. So this is now a fail. He actually takes good care of his phone (not throwing it anywhere!) It's been living is pocket for 3 months and is falling apart.

CPR For Adults
Check the victim for unresponsiveness. (During cardiac arrest, the heart stops pumping blood, the blood pressure falls to zero and the pulse disappears. Within 10 seconds of cardiac arrest the person loses consciousness and becomes unresponsive. If you shake or shout at the victim, there will be no response. Sometimes a person in cardiac arrest may make grunting, gasping or snoring type breathing sounds for a couple of minutes. Do not be confused by this abnormal type of breathing.) If a person is unresponsive and not breathing (or breathing abnormally) then call 911 and begin CPR.
If there is no response, Call 911 and return to the victim. In most locations the emergency dispatcher can assist you with CPR instructions.
3. If the victim is still not breathing normally, coughing or moving, begin chest compressions. Push down on the chest 1 1/2 to 2 inches 15 times right between the nipples. In general the chest should be pushed down 1 1/2-2 inches. Sometimes you may hear a cracking sound. Do not be alarmed. The sound is caused by cartilage or ribs cracking. Even if this occurs the damage is not serious. The risk of delaying CPR or not doing CPR is far greater than the risk of a broken rib. Pump at the rate of 100/minute, faster than once per second.
NOTE: This ratio is the same for one-person and two-person CPR. In two-person CPR the person pumping the chest stops while the other gives mouth-to-mouth breathing
CPR for Children (Ages 1-8 Years)
CPR for children is similar to performing Quick CPR for adults. There are, however, four differences.

As you might tell, I've tried running these with the patch I posted earlier today, and (barring these things I've drawn attention to) it produces reasonable output. I've also noticed that the tests depend on TMPDIR being set in side-effectful-pathnames -- there probably wants to be a ${TMPDIR:-/tmp} in there...

Fragfield was a fairly old idea I'd had. Ever since playing LAN matches with a friend we'd come to realize that while Battlefield 1942 offered potential for very large-scale, expansive fights, sometimes that drew the action out too much. This mod aims to provide fun, concentrated, intense matches for small to medium numbers of players.
The mod features new maps, reworked sound effects, adjusted weapon damage, and health regeneration, among many other tweaks to gameplay. Full Coop support is included on all the new maps in case you don't have enough human players to fill in or you want to practice on your own.
And once more, I have finally decided to stop playtesting, biting my nails and hoping there's no bugs I've missed, and just release the mod.
I decided to do a bit of a tally in regards to what I'd added. Turns out I'd more than doubled the amount of weapons and maps available, so that should keep players busy for a while.
I've got quite a few people to thank this time around. It would be quite the essay if I was to talk about the exploits of each and every person, so I'll simply have to direct you to the credits section in the readme or the credits tab ingame. However, I would like to say a big thankyou to the [GoD] clan for numerous testing runs, and Herc for teaching me a lot about 3D modeling, which he happens to be absolutely awesome at.
Anyway, scoot over to the downloads section and get your hands on the latest version of the mod. If you're into the mapping business, you may also want to pick up the mapping aids which include files for Battlecraft 42 and the Photoshop template I use for my loading screens.
Do you have an explosive personality? Fragfield now has just the weapon for you!
FragField - now 100% more released! Now's your chance to download and enjoy it.

Can't wait for the next version.
Next edition currently WIP, now with the Grenadier class (bolt action rifle such as K98 and M1903 Springfield + rifle grenades). If anyone has an Arisaka rifle model that is compatible with BF1942, please let me know, or I'll have to give the Japanese a K98 =P
New maps are cooming? Russian team too? Music? Can't wait!! ;)
2 new maps already done, plus the Russian team is almost finished. I'm still waiting for permission to use someone's PPSh model and still looking for a Mosin-Nagant (although the No.4 can stand in until I find one), then once the Russian team is done there's 2 maps waiting for them.
So, next update: 4 maps, a new team (with an all-new weapon, hopefully two), and a few little enhancements that I've been working on.
Check with the Forgotten Hope team to see if you can borrow their models for Arisaka, Mosin Nagant, PPSh, and PPS43. I don't know if they have a Type 100 model, but I wouldn't be suprised if they did. They're on moddb, but their website is Forgottenhope.bf1942files.com.
Thanks for the feedback.
I didn't include custom music because I couldn't find anything suitable and get it to work with the game (.bik converter decided not to behave for some reason).
Regarding spawn times: that's the server settings, completely out of control of a mod. If you're starting a local Coop game, mess around with the spawn times as you see fit.
I'm testing a system for spawning in newer maps a bit like Day of Defeat: Source. You'll start off in a 'safe' area and once you've left it you can't get back in, to stop teams from entering spawn areas.
For more weapons - there are only 3 teams (US, Germans, Japanese) so that's why there's not much to be had. If someone's willing to model a PPSh, PPS43, and Type 100 (and possibly make animations too) the Japanese can have a more complete weapon set and I can get the Russian team ingame too.
Yes, that was the point.
Can't wait for next update/release,
Nice mod, I play CoD4 and 5.
And i missed some music for the menus and loading screens, missed some cover points, missed more weapons.
And a bug:
I don't know if i looked right, but some weapons are just the same for all sides...
GREAT MOD. Best ever played for BF1942!!!
If could make more maps, with more players, would be nice!
Another thing: You could make a moder version of this with Police oficers and bandits. With modern armament, but for the same game.
The spawn times are too high. Put only 10 seconds. world be nice :)
Another thing: You should make safety zones for the players when they born. I borned a lot of times with 2 or shoting me. It's not good.
Keep with this great work!
Don't let it die,

The Hill, the D.C. insider's newspaper, on Wednesday published an item in which U.S. Rep. Don Young said he thought Sen. Mark Begich had done a great job but should expect a tough challenge to hold onto his seat this year.
Begich, a Democrat, "is drawing praise from across the aisle from one of Alaska's top Republicans," The Hill said on its campaign blog.
"Mark's done a great job of very frankly representing people. He's not always on my page, that's for sure, but he's done a good job," Young told The Hill, according to the blog item.
But Begich may run into trouble over his votes for Democratic priorities, Young told the paper.
"His big challenge is some of the votes he made are not popular in the state of Alaska and very frankly it's a serious red state," he said. "He's done a good job in six years, but very frankly it's going to be hard for him."
Alaska has far more registered Republicans than Democrats. Three prominent Republicans -- Lt. Gov. Mead Treadwell, former natural resources Commissioner Dan Sullivan and 2010 GOP Senate nominee Joe Miller -- are all fighting for the chance to take on Begich in November.

Gungor: The Postmodern Anthem Band
It took me a long time to write this. I thought I should try to be objective since I was supposed to be reviewing Michael Gungor's book. And that was a book I had to think about. A lot. As it became clear that I was far from impartial, my responsibility to write about this band still loomed. Plus, along the way I decided that Gungor is the perfect anthem band for the Postmodern Church/Movement. And yes, I confess, I also became a fan.

Employees trained, ready to test encryption devices
April 11, 2011
Story Highlights
- Communications specialists use sophisticated equipment to test encryption devices arriving from the field.
TOBYHANNA ARMY DEPOT, PA. - Communications specialists here will soon be using sophisticated equipment to test encryption devices arriving from the field.
The employees are trained and new test stations are in place, ready to screen KGV-72 Programmable In-Line Encryption Devices that are part of the Blue Force Tracking (BFT) system. The encryption device allows for secure exchange of information.
Members of the Communications Systems Directorate's Secure Communications Branch will use a fault test verification kit to screen the assets to certify operability. The screening process takes about one hour to complete. Units are repaired by the manufacturer.
"We're all excited to work on this complex piece of equipment," said James Kondratick, branch chief. "The work we do here will ensure mission success for the warfighters."
In preparation for the new workload, the branch received two test sets and employees have been training on six KGV-72 devices to improve their proficiency. The test kit attaches to an assembled BFT system, which uses a transponder and satellite to check to see if the encryption device is working properly.
"This is a very advanced system and we faced some challenges," said Kyle White, electronics worker. "We worked hard and the training really helped us get ready to receive this new asset."
The KGV-72 was developed as part of the Force XXI Battle Command, Brigade-and-Below (FBCB2) Encryption Device Program. The device is a high-grade security solution that is compatible with existing and future BFT terminals and transceivers. The KGV-72 operates seamlessly with installed FBCB2 remote computers and provides high-grade traffic data encryption.
"I'm looking forward to working with this new device," said Bob McLaughlin, electronics mechanic, noting that a lot of people rely on this equipment to do their job. "It's state-of-the-art technology used by warfighters in the field - they deserve our best."
Tobyhanna Army Depot is the Defense Department's largest center for the repair, overhaul and fabrication of a wide variety of electronics systems and components, from tactical field radios to the ground terminals for the defense satellite communications network. Tobyhanna's missions support all branches of the Armed Forces.
About 5,600 personnel are employed at Tobyhanna, which is located in the Pocono Mountains of northeastern Pennsylvania. Tobyhanna Army Depot is part of the U.S. Army CECOM Life Cycle Management Command. Headquartered at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Md., the command's mission is to research, develop, acquire, field and sustain communications, command, control computer, intelligence, electronic warfare and sensors capabilities for the Armed Forces.

The Taylor V-Neck T-Shirt slides nicely over your pointy nose. It's almost like one of the designers knows you. Weird.
- Reviews
What do you think about this product?
Have questions about this product?
Soo comfy
- Familiarity:I've put it through the wringer
- Fit:True to size
The bamboo viscose/jersey combo is the best. First off, it just feels great - it's unbelievably soft to the touch, and it's comfortable to wear. The stretchiness of the viscose complements the slim/athletic cut perfectly, the V-neck is not too deep, and it doesn't hang too low at the waist. Favorite t-shirt in the t-shirt drawer.
A nice basic shirt to fill out the wardrobe.
I haven't noticed the same problem with shrinkage with this style that I've had with other Arbor shirts, but be careful in the wash!
Nice basics shirt
The bamboo viscose and cotton blend is unbeatable! I bought this for my man, and he can't get enough of the 70.30 blend. Super comfortable, not very baggy but not skin tight. Would definitely recommend this, it's a good lookin shirt!
Great tshirt
- Familiarity:I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share
Very confortable and nice looking tshirt. Part of the basics in your closet. The material blend makes it feel nice against the skin.
Made in the USA!
This is a classic V-neck, and super comfortable! Organic Cotton/viscose from bamboo blend is SO soft! Can't get enough...

In media commentary on the Smithsonian Institute's proposed display of the Enola Gay, the plane that dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima, words were often turned on their heads: Because the proposed exhibit didn't strictly adhere to the official version of history, it was called "politically correct."
Media to Smithsonian: History Is Bunk
Sen. Pressler's PBS Inquest
Action Alert
The lawmakers who launched the public television system in 1967 were concerned that government-funded TV would become government-controlled TV. To protect against this, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting was created, a non-governmental, non-profit entity set up to disburse federal funds to public broadcasters. The idea was that CPB would be a "heat-shield," protecting public TV and radio from the control of elected officials and government bureaucrats. In the language of the Public Broadcasting Act of 1967, CPB is legally obligated to "assure the maximum freedom of the public telecommunications entities and systems from interference with, or control of, program content […]

Clarity, Technology, and Solving Problems | PracticeThis.com
WP7 App with Key Windows Azure resources – Slides, Videos, How-To's, and T-shooting – for quick consumption on the go.
During recent engagement we tried to improve performance of some web page. Original response time was 0.74 seconds. Our objective was to get 0.4 seconds.
The page was simple Html Frameset that was loading two dynamic ASPX pages. Using technique described in Performance Testing For The Masses we identified that it takes 0.4 seconds for one page and 0.2 seconds for another to run on the server (we used time-taken property of the IIS log).
Reviewing the code revealed that there is usage of server controls and both pages read from the Session object.
The assumption was that since no user input is done we can disable ViewState saving on CPU to build the ViewState.
The other assumption was that since the Session is accessed for read only then we can set it as read only saving on locking and preventing race conditions.
This is how each page's header looked after the change:
<%@ Page EnableViewState="false" EnableSessionState="ReadOnly" ...%>
<%@ Page EnableViewState="false" EnableSessionState="ReadOnly" ...%>
Simple change for ASP.NET mark up, no rebuild required.
After running load test for this new version of ASPX page response time was 0.35 seconds.
Another metric was ASP.NET\ Request Execution Time performance counter that dropped from 0.7 seconds to 0.3 seconds.
Source of performance wisdom is here Improving .NET Application Performance and Scalability
My answer is "no".
I am working on solution where there is no Windows Active Directory Domain so we cannot utilize our beloved Kerberos and Windows Integrated Authentication saving big on configuration and management while taking advantage of increased security it offers.
Other technique that we thought that could give us a lots of benefits in terms of strong authentication, transport level protection, and interoperability was using Client Certificates.
Here is the scenario.
ASP.NET web page calls on ASP.NET Web Service on separate machine. Think of scenario where Internet facing ASP.NET web site calls on Web Service deployed in internal zone:
The other scenario would be so called B2B scenario where intranet facing ASP.NET web site calls on Web Service over the Internet:
Another scenario would be calling Java Web Service.
Not that friendly for Windows Integrated Authentication.
The question we asked ourselves was - will it be fast enough? The following post by my colleague Eddie - Fast and Secured: Performance Impact of SSL gave us a lots of hope. But it discussed SSL between Web Browser and the Web Server. Web Browser (IE) has nice feature of caching SSL state so what depicted below happens less thus improving performance (think of OLEDB Connection pooling and you got the idea):
Well, our beloved Internet Explorer does a great job, what about .Net?
After some research we happily discovered the following:
The Framework caches SSL sessions as they are created and attempts to reuse a cached session for a new request, if possible. When attempting to reuse an SSL session, the Framework uses the first element of ClientCertificates (if there is one), or tries to reuse an anonymous sessions if ClientCertificates is empty.
The Framework caches SSL sessions as they are created and attempts to reuse a cached session for a new request, if possible. When attempting to reuse an SSL session, the Framework uses the first element of ClientCertificates (if there is one), or tries to reuse an anonymous sessions if ClientCertificates is empty.
That was encouraging and I decided I need to see it my eyes, so I set sample code and deployed to my lab domain. I also have used diagnostics technique described in Use Sysinternals DebugView To Diagnose The Application. When I fired up DebugView this is what I saw:
Each pair of records reflects on single Web page access telling me how many milliseconds was spent on each action to complete during the page processing.
Notice first two records - one for Web Service proxy creating and adding certificate to it:
Stopwatch stopwatch = new Stopwatch();
X509Store store = new X509Store(StoreName.My, StoreLocation.CurrentUser);
X509Certificate2Collection certs = store.Certificates.Find(X509FindType.FindBySubjectName, "w3w1", true);
X509Certificate2 cert = certs[0];
Service1 proxy = new Service1();
Debug.WriteLine("Web Service Proxy Created: " + stopwatch.ElapsedMilliseconds.ToString());
and the second one is actual Web Service call:
string result = proxy.HelloWorld(cert.Subject);
Debug.WriteLine("Web Service Call Completed: " + stopwatch.ElapsedMilliseconds.ToString());
Notice that all subsequent calls are pretty fast. It should prove that SSL session caching is in place also with .Net as promised. Cool.
While these numbers have been taken on lab environment for super simple scenario it can serve as talking point when considering applying SSL to protect your sensitive data to its way to downstream servers. Also client certificate authentication should be considered as a strongest authentication available today when Kerberos is not available.
I create perf counters sets up front. That way I could start collecting and measuring proper metrics right away each time I am assigned to do detailed performance analysis.
Measuring .NET Application Performance lists important perf counters. What I really love about it is that the guide holds the list of performance counters to collect, explanation for each why collecting it, and the thresholds.
Here are the steps I take creating performance counters templates:
This is how it may look:
Next would be saving the performance sets I created as depicted. It is done easy by right clicking each and saving it as html page. The resulting html page displays ActiveX with the performance counters in the set.
To restore the performance counters-set to measure it on another computer right click on "Counter Logs" and chose "New Log Settings From..." and point to your html file.
One pitfall though. If the performance counters settings were created for specific computer then it will fail when recreating it on another. To fix it open html setting file in Notepad, remove \\MyComputer and save the file. For example:
<PARAM NAME="Counter00005.Path" VALUE="\\MyComputer\System\Context Switches/sec"/>
<PARAM NAME="Counter00005.Path" VALUE="\System\Context Switches/sec"/>
That means that performance counters are valid for current computer.

Sacking Out?
I heard of somthing called sacking out, to bombproof and gain your horses trust, exactly what is it?
Basically scaring your horse with anything you can think of until your horse isn't afraid of it anymore. Like throwing the lead rope around, flailing plastic bags near your horse / touching them with it, etc. It's a way to desensitize your horse to scary things.

Desensitising. It's known in some circles as 'sacking out' because people used to use sacks to do it. Basically the old style as I was taught is to tie the horse up to something it can't break(or throw it & keep it down) and 'whip' it all over with a sack(or whatever), until it eventually gives up fighting & 'submits'. This desensitises it to things touching & being thrown at it.
In behavioural terms, the type of desensitising above would be called 'flooding' and for a number of reasons I don't like it. I prefer gradual, 'approach & retreat' type desensitisation rather than 'sink or swim' 'break the spirit' tactics.
Loosie, this OP is UpandAbove from yesterday. The 13 year old that doesn't like advice. The pic for the ID's avatar is one she posted yesterday in a thread on how to clean a halter.

just Cloudkicker
Cloudkicker, the background pony for background ponies.
I think I've really grown to like Cloudkicker. At first I was like, eh, she's okay. But now I'm like... I like her.
I always thought cloudkicker was cute <3
you made her so beautiful

"I once dug a pit and filled it with clouds....or was it clowns.... it doesn't matter, it didn't slow him down. But it really began to smell! Must have been clowns.
Clouds don't smell, they taste of butter. And tears."
Clouds don't smell, they taste of butter. And tears."
Cloudkicker is my favorite background pony that no one talks about.
Hehe. Not as bad as Lemon Hearts. She appears in every other episode, has striking colors, yet never gets any fanart.
Hnnggg if I could draw well....
Hnnggg if I could draw well....
Tis a pity no one talks about her more. She's so cute!

Alfred was born in Teshie, and he is 35 years old. This is his second loan from ID Ghana. He works in order to take care of the household expenses. He is married to Felicia, who is 34 years old and a trader. They have two children.
He is hardworking, industrious and circumspect in all his dealings, which lead to his business booming. He sells soft drinks. He has been doing this business for nine years, and it is going well. His earnings are getting better, so he buys more inventory to meet his customers' demand.
Alfred and Dora, together, need to borrow a total of 800 Ghanaian cedis to buy more goods to resell to their customers, thus expanding their businesses.
Additional Information
About ID GhanaID Ghana is a microfinance NGO that provides financial and social services to underserved urban communities in Accra. ID Ghana's socially-oriented business model provides clients with a number of social services, including financial literacy training, group discussions led by peer educators on health and nutrition education, child schooling, basic medical services, and counseling and legal services for women victims of violence.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Though I never was aCall of Duty 4 was an amazing game with an amazing experience, the map packs that came out for it were simply delightful. Though I never was a huge fan, I enjoyed CoD 4 to an extent that not many other games could, then Modern Warfare 2 came out. I was so happy to finally see another one in the series. After playing the campaign, it sucked. After playing spec-ops, it certainly got better, but it still sucked. Mutiplayer is over-rated and too repetitive. Everything is the same, kill the same person over and over and over then laugh at them. All the while using the same guns, on the same map, and the same everything. It's boring. The map pack Stimulus package did it no justice, the maps were absolutely awful and don't deserve to even be put in the game. Perhaps if they did something interesting, such as put a twist on each map, it would be more fun. But no, it's still, shoot this, then that, then this, then that. *Bleep* I died, I hate this, I'm going to give it a bad review, post, and so far I'm at the last step.… Full Review »

Well, the unthinkable happened. The Senate's sweeping gun legislation came up short on the votes required to move forward. And despite all the idealistic calls for passage and despite the fact that many pundits and advocates seem to believe that something should be law simply because "the vast majority of Americans" support it, not every issue deserves a majoritarian decision.
To begin with, whether Democrats like it or not, this issue concerns the Constitution -- where stuff was written down for a reason. That's not to say that expanding background checks or banning "assault rifles" would be unconstitutional (though you may believe they both should be). It's to say that when you begin meddling with protections explicitly laid out in the founding document, a 60-vote threshold that slows down stampeding legislators is the least we deserve.
The Founding Fathers worried that "some common impulse of passion" might lead many to subvert the rights of the few. It's a rational fear, one that is played out endlessly. Obama, who understands how to utilize public passion better than most, flew some of the Newtown families to Washington for a rally, imploring Americans to put "politics" aside and stop engaging in "political stunts." This is, by any measure, a preposterous assertion coming from a politician piggybacking tragic events for political gain. It would have been one thing, I suppose, if the gun control legislation written in the aftershock of a gruesome massacre had anything to do with the topic at hand. But what senators came up with would have done nothing to stop the shooter in Newtown -- or the one in Aurora, Colo. Passions can be aggravated by events, but in this case, events have little to do with the policy at hand.
Cabinet positions and judges should probably not be held up over ideological concerns. But if Washington is internalizing the 60-vote threshold as the barrier to pass legislation, voters should be grateful. Considering Washington's propensity to politicize everything and its increasingly centralized power (what your health care looks like is now up for national referendums, for instance), slowing things down can only help.

You have all been very kind and I thank you so much for your support.
Some happy days are here again as early morning frost has left the meadows around here pure sparkly diamond strewn! Gone are the prevailing grey south westerly weather systems which tend to engulf Ireland for weeks on end. For two days we haven't had a cloud in the sky and as I look out from my office window I am delighted to witness "the actual" sun and right now "the actual" moon as well.
It won't last.....but....
How's the weather and how is it affecting your mood in your part of the world?

We loved the experience and the guide was terrific...I think his name was Pete, but not sure!
It was a lot of fun. Our driver was super cool and informative.
Great fun! Learned facts and history about Sedona from our guide. The ride itself was very exciting. We would do it again.
Pink Jeep is my favorite tour provider through Viator. They are experts in driving as well as knowledge of the area. We spent almost 3 hours exploring areas that cars without 4 wheel drive could not venture into.
Wonderful tour.......our host John was a blast.....he was informative and quite entertaining!
beautiful scenery. Our guide, Bert, was so friendly and informative. He even posed us for some great pictures. I would recommend this trip to anyone. It was thrilling without being scary at all. Loved it!!!
We have never been on a pink jeep tour but would diffently use them again. Our guide really new the area, plants, history of the area. We took our 12 and 14 year old children and they thought it was the best part of our Grand Canyon trip.
Absolutely one of the best experiences ever! Our guide, Paul, was knowledgeable, fun, and so helpful. He took family pbotos for us and assisted my 73 year old mother over the rocky trails. Breathtaking views and climbs that only a pink Jeep could handle. Such a great trip! Definitely recommend!
Took this tour with 2 friends in September. We were amazed at the places we saw and the places the pink jeep took us to. Wes was our tour guide and he did an excellent job driving as well as informing us about the area. It was an exciting trip!
Mike was our tour guide and did an excellent job. This was our first trip to Sedona so it was interesting to hear his local perspective on the area in general and the Red Rock area in particular. Although there seemed to be numerous other outfitters available, I would definitely take the Pink Jeep tour again!
Pete, our Pink Tour driver, was great with the 4 kids on our tour. They loved his comments, and the way he prepared them for the roller coaster like ride. Pete never talked down to the kids, and gave them, and their parents, great info on the sights. Can't say enough good things about the Pink Jeep tour people. :)
this tour was awesome. The guide was terrific and very informative. We had such a great time.
This tour is an excellent way to see Sedona's National Park sights as well as a fun and challenging jeep ride. The trip was well organized and the guide was very informative about the area.
I enjoyed my tour very much. Gorgeous views, and very informative tour guide. I will recommend this tour to my friends.
This was one of the best experiences we had in Sedona. The tour guide was excellent and the tour was fantastic. Everything was very professional and I would highly recommend this excursion with Pink Jeep.
The trip was great. The driver was great. His name was Don and he was knowledgeable and funny. Great time.
This tour was great. Dan was our guide and he was fantastic. I would do this tour again.
Had a lot of fun and the scenery was spectacular!
great ride and guide. my friend from maine kept saying she is bringing the rest of her family next year. thank you
The high point of our trip. Great guide and fabulous views you'd not see from the road. It was fun climbing over rocks and getting out of the jeep a few times to explore. Well worth the time.
The tour was great!
We had a wonderful experience with our son and his family who were visiting AZ.
Dan our guide was great not only with the grand-kids, but also with the adults. The scenery was beautiful and we choose this tour based on a recommendation of friends, and we would also recommend to others not only Pink Jeep, but the Broken Arrow Tour. Thanks again, The Hawkins Family Five Star
Absolutely fabulous. A really great trip
On time and well organized. Driver was personable and informative. I would defitely recommend this tour.
Great time and lot of fun. Many great photos Josh was very knowledgeable and made the outing fun.

Mendocino County, California officials have confirmed that a massive, 6-county marijuana eradication sweep is currently underway, aimed at clearing away the illegal cannabis cultivation in the Mendocino National Forest.
According to Michelle Gregory, a Department of Justice spokeswoman, the sweep has produced roughly 292,000 plants and 77 arrests as of yesterday. Numerous agencies are said to be participating in the raids, which started last week and which authorities were trying to keep secret.
"At this point, the operation is going as planned. We're making very good progress," said Mendocino County Sheriff Tom Allman, who was instrumental in organizing the operation.
"Good progress." These grows only exist because of cannabis prohibition and the inflated price it causes for a naturally-growing plant on the black market. So the state enforces the prohibition that causes these illegal grows, then shells out taxpayer money to send highly-trained men swooping in with helicopters to chop down and burn plants.
An endless cycle of silliness that would be funny if it wasn't costing so much money and wasting so many man-hours that could be used toward ridding society of violent crime.

Veeerrrrrry creepy. That eye! It's really the key to this image. I defiantly get the feeling that he's looking right into me. I also like the way you distorted his face to look more like a monster with out going to far out into more stereotypical monster ideas. I'm guessing the face was created in zbrush but, I got to ask, how did you make his clothing?
wow this is amazing!!
Very impressed!

Star Director
I was introduced to Scentsy in November 2009. I had a basket party for a friend and instantly fell in love with the simplicity of the product. My husband Philip also loved the products since the candles were wick free. After my party, and I got all my stuff and I was hooked. I decided to join in February 2010 when my son Caleb was 6 weeks old. At first I didn't do much with Scentsy other than host a few parties for myself so I could earn the rewards and commission. That summer, convention was in Denver and my sponsor, who is also one of my best friend's was coming out for it. She talked me into going and together we experienced our 1st Scentsy convention! We realized Scentsy was so much more than wax & warmers. I left convention setting new goals for myself. My 1st goal was to make enough money to make my car payment plus a little extra for spending cash. I knew could do that having 1-2 parties a month; which was better than working the 2-3 shifts a week at Chili's where I was a server. Once I started setting goals for myself, it became really easy to reach them. I was so excited to share the Scentsy experience with everyone; I even started growing my Scentsy team! In early August 2011, convention was in Ft. Worth, Texas. I was a Star consultant with 13 people on my team. That summer, my husband was able to take leave and attend convention with me. While there, he saw the potential Scentsy could offer our family, and together we started making new goals for my Scentsy business. My #1 goal was to hit Director by December and have50 people on my team. At the end of August, only 3 weeks after convention, I had reachedDirector and had a team of 24. I ended 2011 with 62 people on my team and reached all my goals I had set for the year. My husband has been my biggest support and he is a BIG part of my Scentsy business. Thanks to Scentsy we have been able to travel to so many places we wouldn't have been able to before. In January 2012 we went to Rivera Maya, Mexico on the Director's Leadership Retreat. That same month, I went to South Carolina, North Carolina & Virginia for Scentsy's Spring Sprint stops on the east coast. June 2012 wewent on our 1st FREE all exclusive paid vacation to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. In July 2012 we went to Las Vegas for convention and in October 2012 I had the opportunity to attend Director's Boot Camp at Scentsy's Main Office inMeridian, ID. In May 2013, I attended my 2nd FREE incentive trip in New York City, staying at the Waldorf Astoria, and also visited Indianapolis for the Scentsy Family Reunion in July 2013. I earned my 3rd FREE incentive to St. Louis in July 2014 for our Scentsy Family Reunion (I also earned Bahamas for FREE this summer but since my husband couldn't get leave to go with, I opted not to go). This January though, we will make up for that by attending our Leadership in Cancun Mexico, staying at the Moon Palace for a week. I have also earned this trip for FREE! The best part of these trips -- getting to spend it with some of my closest friends; most of them that we wouldn't get to see otherwise since we are all stationed in different areas of the United States now.My motivation & love for this company and all it does for its consultants grows every day. I am in love with an amazing high quality product that literally sells itself time after time; and three companies that continue to contribute more than it takes. I am still amazed at how a small company that started just 10 short years ago has changed so many lives; including mine! I have grown so much as a person, a leader with over 200 consultants in my downline and an independent business woman, I can hardly recognize myself. In a time of trial and economic downfall; Scentsy remains a shining star, growing and setting a new standard every day. The company continues to present new and exciting opportunity through adding a sister company, becoming a Scentsy Family. We now have Scentsy Fragrance & Velata (fondue warmers & other amazing kitchen products, including a tabletop grill). My journey is just beginning and I encourage anyone who has even thought about it don't make excuses to wait until tomorrow, next week, or next month, your opportunity is knocking! Open the door, and let me help you do it! I am proof that it is possible the sky is truly the limit, reach for it with me! Your journey begins today....See More

Q. Why do I have to "qualify" for membership?
A: Credit unions are democratically run and each member has one vote. Members elect the Board of Directors who represent the members for strategic decisions and planning within the credit union. So, when you join a credit union, you get a say in how the organization operates.
Each credit union's organizing charter defines who is eligible to become a member. Members have something in common, usually an employer or place of residence. Credit unions have a "field of membership," and a common bond that members have to share. Fields of membership can be defined by place of employment, church membership, or residence in a community, to name just a few ways.
Q: What is the difference between a Credit Union and a Bank?
A: Credit unions offer services like banks do, but there are some differences.
- Credit unions are not-for-profit organizations. This means that any profit the organization earns beyond operating costs is returned to the members in the form of better interest rates, low or no fees, improved and expanded services and facilities. That's why we can often offer higher interest rates on savings and lower rates on loans than banks can. The profit earned by banks is paid to owners and shareholders rather than to the bank's customers.
- Credit unions offer most of the same services that banks offer, but the services are named differently. A share draft account compares to a checking account, share certificates compare to certificates of deposit, and regular share accounts compare to savings accounts.
Q: Where can I find my account number?
A: Your account number comes after your routing number on the bottom of your check. It is before your check number on the bottom right corner.
Q: Can you help me find a deposit taking ATM?
A: Yes, click here for an ATM locator.
