A playful Green Day stormed their way through a near three hour long show at Wembley Stadium on June 19, and described it as "the biggest show of our f--ing lives" during the set.
Having played Wembley Arena last autumn, the graduation to the stadium, as part of an eighteen date European tour, was a triumphant one; the punk stalwarts romped through a mammoth 34-song set that spanned their entire career, from breakthrough hit 'Basketcase' to more recent material from 2004's critically acclaimed 'American Idiot' and last year's '21st Century Breakdown,' the NME reported.
Congratulations to all the winners of the Idiot Club: Rock The Air with Green Day contest. Login and see if you were one of the 10 winners of autographed Rock Band games: HERE.
WIMBLEDON, England — In preparation for Wimbledon, Serena Williams took in a Green Day concert at Wembley Stadium and, with the Queen of England scheduled to visit the tournament Thursday, practiced her curtsy in front of the mirror.
Of Green Day, she gushed: "They were so close."
Williams was much more animated on other topics. Like Green Day (she pronounced herself a "massive" fan). And The Queen (she does plan to curtsy, if given the opportunity, and she would welcome an introduction).
American pop punk trio also get into the World Cup spirit
The American punk pop trio played a mammoth two hour and 50 minute set from their 20 year backcatalogue featuring tracks and hits from seven of their eight albums as they peppered their set with pyrotechnics and shooting flames.
Arriving onstage to huge cheers, drummer Tre Cool charged down the catwalk before launching his drumsticks onto the main stage as the band kicked off the show with '21st Century Breakdown' opener 'Song Of The Century'.

Williamsburg grinds its main line of professional-quality oil colors in linseed oil, knowing this produces the strongest, most flexible, and fastest drying paint film. At the same time, the paint maker understands this comes with a tradeoff, as linseed oil has a tendency to yellow over time.
Williamsburg Handmade Safflower Oil Colors have now been added to provide artists with a longer lasting brilliance. This series of 13 white and transparent colors are milled in fine safflower oil for a vibrance and clarity that endures over time — ideal for passages of white and for glazing the top layers of a painting.
Paints milled in safflower oil take longer to dry and produce weaker films. Therefore they are not recommended for underpainting or foundation layers.

Sixteen teams from South Florida took part in a single elimination tournament in Miramar on Saturday. The event sponsored by Nike was won by Miami Northwestern who beat Glades Central in the final.

He is the next great wide receiver from Glades Central High School and recently called to speak to University of Florida coach Zach Azzanni.3.

Clinton Taylor - Miami Northwestern - WRTaylor an FIU commitment was the other receiver for Miami Northwestern that had a big day. He is a slightly built slot receiver who is quick in and out of his cuts.5. Kelvin Benjamin - Glades Central - WRThe 6 foot 6 Benjamin had maybe the catch of the day. Towards the end of the championship game he went up high over Bridgewater and snagged the ball with one hand and walked into the end zone.

A new exhibit titled, "Black Mountain College: Innovation in Art, Education, and Lifestyle," is now on display in the 4th Floor atrium of Belk Library and Information Commons. Black Mountain College was an experimental school, located just outside of Asheville, North Carolina, that only existed for 23 years, from 1933 to 1956. During that short time, it fostered many different artists including dancers, musicians, photographers, painters, and poets.
The exhibit has three display cases that follow the three major rectors, or elected leaders, of the college. The first explores the 1930s through John A. Rice, the founder of the college. The second looks at the 1940s and focuses on visual art through the leadership of Josef Albers. The final one examines the 1950s through Charles Olson, when writing became a central focus of the school.
Most of the artifacts on display come from the John A. Rice Papers and the recently added F. Whitney Jones Papers. Additional artifacts and images come from the Paul and Maryrose Carroll Beat Poetry Collection in Special Collections; the Western Regional Archives, State Archives of North Carolina; Joseph Bathanti; Elizabeth S. Rose; and University of Connecticut Libraries. Joseph Bathanti, North Carolina Poet Laureate, and Professor of Creative Writing advised on the creation of the exhibit. The exhibit was executed by public history graduate student Rebecca Dion.
In addition to the exhibit, two up-coming related lectures will be given in April. On Wednesday, April 3, Professor David Silver of the University of San Francisco will deliver a talk, "The Farm at Black Mountain College: A History in Five Acts with Lessons for Today," at 5:00 p.m. in Belk Library Room 114. On Thursday, April 11, writer Tom Patterson will give a talk, "Reconstituting Black Mountain: Reflections on the Black Mountain College Festival at St. Andrews College, 1974," at 7:30 p.m. in The Great Hall, Living Learning Center at Appalachian State University.
For more information on Black Mountain College, see Black Mountain College: An Exploration in Community by Martin Duberman, Black Mountain College: Sprouted Seeds: an Anthology of Personal Accounts edited by Mervin Lane, or The Arts at Black Mountain College by Mary Emma Harris.

Friends of the University Library and the Goodnight Family Sustainable Development Program present:
Date: Wednesday, April 3, 2013
Time: 5:00pm
Location: Belk Library, room 114
This talk presents the history of the farm at North Carolina's Black Mountain College (1933-1956). Widely regarded as the most influential art school in the history of U.S. higher education, Black Mountain College's faculty-student roster reveals a "who's who" of late 20th century artists and thinkers. At the same time, the college was heavily experimental in developing rich and collaborative living-learning environments--especially with their work program, which had students, professors, and staff working side by side to help the campus thrive and, at times, survive. Much of this work took place on the campus farm. Tracing the farm's physical existence, its personnel, its buildings and structures, and its produce, crops, and livestock, grown and raised for both college consumption and much needed income, Silver reveals the farm's vital role to BMC's work program and the college's goal to be self-sustaining and points towards some valuable lessons for today's "green campuses."
David Silver is an associate professor of media studies, environmental studies, and urban agriculture at the University of San Francisco. He teaches classes on media history, social media, and green media. He is currently on sabbatical working on a history of the farm at Black Mountain College.
Please contact Lynn Patterson (email@example.com or 828-262-2087) with any questions about the program.

Make Hummus Not War is a humorous film journey though the hummus bars and kitchens of Beirut, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and New York. Along the way the filmmaker encounters Palestinian and Israeli hummus cooks, chickpea farmers, political leaders, activists, Jewish settlers, and others for whom hummus is a near religious obsession.
The film will be introduced by Dr. Curt Ryan, who will also lead discussion on peace and cultural commonalities in the Middle East following the film. Dr. Ryan is associate professor of political science at Appalachian State, a scholar of Middle Eastern politics, and author of the books Inter-Arab Alliances: Regime Security and Jordanian Foreign Policy and Jordan in Transition: From Hussein to Abdullah.
The event is presented by ASU Library in conjunction with the ASU Humanities Council with grant funding from the National Endowment for the Humanities- NEH Bridging Cultures, Muslim Journeys grant and the Bivens Fund for Library Excellence. This is the third in a series of programs that compose the 2013 Muslim Journeys Program.
More description of the film: Could a regional love of hummus be the recipe for peace in the Middle East? This was the question on director Trevor Graham's mind when he set out to film Make Hummus Not War, a documentary about the Middle Eastern conflict you don't see on the nightly news.
One of the oldest-known prepared foods in human history, hummus is claimed by multiple Middle Eastern nationalities. So when Trevor Graham, a self-described hummus tragic, learned of a 2008 Lebanese plan to sue Israel for acting as if it had proprietary rights over the dish, he was intrigued and hungry for more. With Israel, Lebanon and Palestine fighting once again - over who 'owns' the hummus heritage - he set off on a personal journey into a colorful culinary history.
"Hummus and chickpeas are a symbol of our common humanity. I want this movie to say 'We have more in common than divides us.'" Trevor Graham [filmmaker]

The award-winning film Prince Among Slaves will be shown Tuesday Feb 26, 2013 at 7:00 PM in Belk Library room 114.
The event is presented by ASU Library in conjunction with the ASU Humanities Council with grant funding from the National Endowment for the Humanities. This is the first in a series of programs that compose the 2013 Muslim Journeys Program. It is also shown in celebration of Black History Month. The film will be introduced by ASU Instructor, Ray Christian, who will also lead discussion following the film.
Date: Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Time: 7:00pm
Location: Belk Library, room 114
Admission: Free, open to the public
The film is based on the true story of Abdul Rahman Ibrahima Sori, an African prince and devout Muslim slaved in the American South.
In 1788, the slave ship Africa set sail from West Africa, headed for America with its berth laden with a profitable but highly perishable cargo—hundreds of men, women, and children bound in chains. Six months later the survivors were sold in Natchez, Mississippi. One of them, a twenty-six-year-old man named Abdul-Rahman made the remarkable claim to the farmer who purchased him at the auction that he was an African prince and that his father would pay gold for his ransom. The offer was refused and Abdul-Rahman did not return to Africa for another forty years. During his enslavement he toiled on the Foster plantation, married, and fathered nine children. His story also eventually made him the most famous African in America, attracting the support of powerful men such as President John Quincy Adams.
After forty years of slavery, Abdul-Rahman finally reclaimed his freedom, but he defied the order to return immediately to Africa, and instead traveled throughout the northern states, speaking to huge audiences in a partially successful attempt to raise enough money to buy his children's freedom. Finally at the age of sixty-seven, and after raising funds to free two of his children, Abdul-Rahman returned to Africa, only to fall ill and die just as word of his arrival reached his former home of Futa Jalloo in present-day Guinea. Abdul-Rahman survived the harsh ordeals of slavery through his love of family and his deep faith as a Muslim.

Dr. Xiaorong Shao, Information Literacy Librarian at Belk Library and Information Commons, and two colleagues from the Department of Languages, Literatures, and Cultures, Dr. Xiaofei Tu and Dr. Wei Xie, have been awarded a $100,000 grant from the United States State Department to share English reading and film resources and lectures on US politics and culture with students and faculty at Northeastern University (NEU) in Shenyang, China.
The team's work with Northeastern University will revive a partnership initiated in 1981. Besides funding development of an English reading and film library at NEU, stocked with material relevant to American politics and culture, the grant will support lectures by a total of ten speakers (five American scholars from Appalachian and five scholars from China) on different topics relevant to American studies and will help fund student and faculty exchanges between NEU and App State.
Dr. Shao hopes that the people who have been involved with the program will be its enduring legacy. "We hope that that faculty members and students that have taken part in the lectures and exchanges will maintain an appreciation of the relationship between Chinese and American culture, and continue informing the public through their work."
It's February, and you know what that means--it's time to show your library love.

Freeport Collection by Hinkley
This Hinkley Freeport Collection suggests classic lamps in their shape. However, there is a distinct industrial age feeling to each of them. Cast in dark colors and using strong lines, these lamps cast a solid appearance. With their frosted glass, there is a feeling of blurriness brought about by the light they cast.

It was an emotional moment when the winner was announced Wednesday night for the Country Music Association's "Song of The Year."
That's because the inspiration for Lee Brice's "I Drive Your Truck," was Army Soldier Jared Monti, a 1st Class Sergeant who died in combat in Afghanistan in 2006 and was awarded the Medal of Honor in 2009.
His family lives in Pitt County.
His mom Janet Monti says, "Somebody heard an interview with Jared's dad and someone asked him how he keeps his memory alive."
Jared's sister Nicole Alicea says his dad's answer was, "Driving his truck everyday got him through the day and it really touched that song writer, and they got together and found Lee Brice and wrote the song and it just took off."
Monti served in Afghanistan for about a year and on June 25, 2006, he attempted to rescue one of his men and was killed.
Family members say Monti was mortally wounded by an RPG, but he lived a short time and his last words were, "I've made my peace with God and tell my family I love them."
Janet says the song is about others as well. "Sheryl Patrick her son was killed in the same battle as my son she drives his truck, Rhonda Bradberry drives her son's truck, he was the one who was killed when the stretcher fell there were so many people who when they found out what the song was about how they drive their sons truck as well."
That song was released in December of last year and reached number 1 on the charts just a few months later.
Monti was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor in 2009.
His father is still driving his Dodge Ram.

Azam entertain visiting Toto Africa in a tension packed Mainland premiership encounter to be played at the Chamazi Stadium in Dar es Salaam this afternoon.
Both teams are contesting for crucial points allotted for the match. While Azam urgently are targeting to win and boost their premiership title chase, Toto have to avoid a slip up that would send them into the relegation tunnel at the end of the season.
The match at Chamazi is staged just a week after the host side had another league tie against Mtibwa Sugar ended pre-maturely.
The match cost a referee job and resultant decision favoured the host side through boosting title chase with windfall three points and as many goals.
Three of the Azam's matches in the last six rounds were clouded by controversies as referees took centre stage to brew hullabaloo strong enough to harm players, referees themselves and opponent teams.
Visiting Toto are not safe from the relegation shockwaves despite enjoying a three-point gap over Villa Squad and two over equally vulnerable African Lyon.
Very much tension is expected from the match as Toto must fight hard to move into safe horizon while the host side has equally the same objective to keep title chase alive.
On the sidelines are pacemakers Simba who will be following the mach with tenacious zeal to weigh their title winning possibilities should Azam failed to beat the visitors.
A draw would also work in favour of Simba to declare title haul ahead of their final match against rivals Young Africans at the National Stadium in Dar es Salaam on Saturday.
Azam have no option except to win all the remaining ties including today's to attain a 59-point mark already in possession by the pacemakers.
The ice-cream makers pray for Simba to falter in their final match so as to bank on goal difference computations should Simba lose to their archrivals Yanga.
Toto will be cautious in today's game while bearing in mind that a relegation-haunted Villa Squad have their penultimate round match against Oljoro JKT at the same venue tomorrow.
Already two teams have qualified to float into the relegation, Moro United and Police Dodoma and the third team to follow them is yet to be known.
The relegation axe for the third team is likely to fall between three teams including Toto Africa, Villa Squad and African Lyon.

The line for tickets was long and the interest high to hear President Barack Obama speak about student debt Tuesday at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
A line of students seeking tickets to hear Obama in Chapel Hill camped out overnight despite Sunday's rain in front of the box office of the university's former basketball auditorium where he'll speak.
Obama visits the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill on Tuesday and similar colleges in Colorado and Iowa as he woos young voters by taking about student loans and the rising cost of education. He is also scheduled to tape a segment for Late Night With Jimmy Fallon to air in Tuesday's late night lineup on WITN.
All three are in states Obama won in 2008 but are expected to be closely contested with likely Republican nominee Mitt Romney.

With the white and red team logos designed to adorn the bikes of sponsored riders, Selle Italia SLR Monolink Flow Team Edition Saddle keeps your favorite ride looking just as fast. A narrower profile than the SLR Flow makes this ideal for riders who find the standard flow a touch too wide. This is accomplished with the help of the carbon fiber Monolink rails, which incorporate an over/under design, as opposed to the common side-by-side rail found on most saddles.
Selle Italia calls its narrow-nose design 'Friction Free,' and the result is energy saved when you pedal. Look at your saddles. Are the covers always frayed along the sides of the nose? It probably matches the pilled/thin spots on your bib shorts. Selle Italia's Friction Free SLR Flow addresses this issue by carving out the width of the standard taper of the SLR from the widest portion at the wings to the rounded tip of the nose. This is only possible because of the narrower rail design. Another benefit of the Monolink design is that it offers a greater range of fore/aft adjustability than a standard system.
The Monolink rails are molded in one piece using carbon fiber. They aren't alone; the injection molded shell is made of 30% carbon as well. It's light, strong, and designed to flex just enough to provide comfort over rough roads. The 'Flow' in the name means that this saddle has a cutout in the shell. Its placement and shape are carefully designed to reduce pressure on your soft parts. In turn, this helps to alleviate numbness and pain -- letting the firm, wider portion of the saddle support your weight at the sit bones. The EVA foam padding is lightweight too, and they use just enough to give you a cushioned perch.
The Selle Italia SLR Flow Team Edition Saddle measures 131mm wide and 275mm long. It's available in Black with a Lorica topsheet. You must use it with the Selle Italia Monolink Seatpost.

As we may recall, the view that the kind of politics practised by politicians in the ruling party and other political parties in the land today is of gutter status has not been conceived by the writer of this column, but by a retired politician-cum-businessman known as Rostam Aziz.
He opined that gutter politics is anything but issue-driven. It is this appropriate definition which tempts some serious Tanzanians to wonder whether Parliament is becoming a victim of gutter politics or not.
Hopefully you are getting the point. What is at stake here is whether our 10th Parliament, blessed with a good number of men and women with good academic credentials and youthful vigour, is issue-oriented in discussing national matters or not.
And, is the behavior of MPs in the House during their short time in office meeting expectations of the electorate? What are the chances that it will perform better than previous parliaments?
Your guess regarding answers to the above crucial questions is as good as mine. What is crystal clear however, is that members of the public have so far witnessed what looks like a false start. Some are already disillusioned, while patient ones are willing to give our august house a chance, guided by the principle that it is never too late to mend one's way of doing things.
We say the relationship between CCM and CHADEMA MPs in the 10th Parliament had a rocky start right from the beginning because of two incidents which provide evidence to this opinion.
First, was the walkout of CHADEMA MPs when President Jakaya Kikwete was about to deliver his Parliament opening speech. It was a gesture meant to emphasise the party's allegation that he did not win the Presidential seat fairly and squarely.
The rationale behind this move remains controversial. What is clear however, is that CCM MPs were definitely not happy about the incident, feeling that it was an insult to the Head of State who also happens to be CCM National Chairman.
On the other hand, we immediately witnessed a move to adjust the Parliamentary rule on how chairpersons of Parliamentary Committees supposed to be headed by MPs from the opposition are chosen. In short, a change was made to ensure the opposition party with a majority of MPs does not marginalise other opposition parties and chair all the committees.
Only the politically blind cannot see that the above mentioned move, which sailed through partly because CCM commands a majority of MPs in the House, was deliberately designed to cut CHADEMA to size, or to partially clip its wings. Obviously, CHADEMA was not impressed, and this increased the quantity of bad blood in the psyche of the MPs hailing from the two hotly competing parties.
Tanzanians had hoped that through the healing power of mother time, the MPs would eventually let the bygones be bygones and team up to tackle the many daunting challenges facing the nation. These include the energy crisis, unemployment, corruption, misuse of national resources, mass poverty, and you name it. The list is long.
But what has happened in the course of time? As several observers and members of the public have noted, we see partisan politics being practiced at its worst.
Some MPs from the ruling party will oppose an idea voiced by an MP from the opposition, not on the basis of its merit but of its origin. And you have opposition MPs who think nothing good can come from the other side.
This kind of approach to national issues is behind the uncalled for heckling, booing, banging tables to interrupt MPs during debates, and all sorts of theatrics as well as antics now threatening the image of the otherwise reputable institution. Things become worse when the referees in the parliamentary game also fail to be as neutral as is humanly possible.
Since members of the public are open about their displeasure on goings on in Parliament, we hope the legislators will read the signs of the times and do the necessary. Lest they also end up as losers and get condemned by history.

Kerri Shields added 13 points and Nicole Boudreau had 11 points for the Eagles.
No. 5 KENTUCKY 73, LSU 60
LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) — Azia Bishop scored 17 points to help Kentucky beat LSU.
Bishop, a sophomore who was averaging 3.2 points and 2.9 rebounds before Sunday's game, made seven of her 10 shots in 20 minutes. She stepped up at several key passages in which LSU threatened the Wildcats' lead. She also had five rebounds.
The Wildcats (19-2, 7-1 SEC), whose 17-game win streak was snapped Thursday against No. 18 South Carolina, scored the last nine points of the game over its final two minutes to pull away late. The 13-point margin of victory was also the Wildcats' largest lead of the game.
The Lady Tigers (12-8, 3-4) closed Kentucky's lead to 49-45 with 8:40 to play, and Bishop scored her first basket of the second half on the next possession. When LSU got within five points in the second half on two occasions, Bishop answered both times with baskets on the next possession.

Colorado (15-4, 4-4) was led by Jamee Swan with 14 points and 6 rebounds.
Stanford got a scare when Ogwumike collided with a Colorado player with 8:09 left. Both players fell to the ground and Ogwumike came up hobbling on her left leg. She remained in the game after having her left ankle taped but had a visible limp at times in the final minutes running the floor.
No. 7 CALIFORNIA 71, UTAH 54
BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) — Reshanda Gray scored 19 points and sparked a big run in the second half before leaving with a leg injury in California's win over Utah.
Layshia Clarendon added 23 points and Afure Jemerigbe had 10 to help the Bears to their seventh consecutive win over the Utes. The victory also assures Cal (17-2, 7-1 Pac-12) of keeping at least a share of first place in the conference.
The Bears had trouble getting anything going against Utah's tight zone defense until Gray scored 11 points as part of a 17-4 run midway through the second half. Clarendon later scored six points over the final 4 1/2 minutes to help seal the win.
Michelle Plouffe scored 19 points and Paige Crozon added 13 for Utah (10-9, 1-7).

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Maggie Lucas scored 14 of her 18 points in the second half and Penn State saved its best for last in beating Ohio State, the Nittany Lions' 14th consecutive Big Ten win to set a school record.

Tayler Hill, the Big Ten's leading scorer, had 28 points for Ohio State (11-9, 1-6), which had won the last six meetings at home against Penn State dating to Feb. 27, 2005. Ameryst Alston added 12.

The Quileute tribe
- "The bears won't get a drop on me, Bella. My kung fu's strong."
- ―Harry[src]
Harry Clearwater was a tribal elder of the Quileute tribe, and father of Seth and Leah Clearwater. He was also a close friend of Charlie Swan's, the two of them sharing a love of fishing. Harry was happily married to Sue Clearwater until he died of a heart attack in New Moon.
Harry is mentioned by Billy Black both in the film and the novel adaptation of Twilight, when Billy drops by the Swan's house to give Charlie, "some of Harry Clearwater's famous fish fry."
New Moon
In New Moon, he is first mentioned when he and his family are at the spaghetti dinner at the Blacks' house with Bella and Charlie. That night, his wife Sue teased him about his cholesterol and unsuccessfully tried to shame him into eating something "green and leafy".
Bella is conveniently able to send her father Charlie Swan to Harry's when she needs time alone with Edward. While Charlie is at the Clearwaters', he figures out that Harry had been having heart problems, but Harry manages to joke about it and make it appear insignificant.
When Bella finally learns that Jacob is a shape-shifter, Harry and Billy help keep Charlie out of range of Victoria who is killing hikers in the vicinity. On the morning of Bella's cliff diving expedition, Harry suffers a fatal heart attack and dies. There are several theories regarding Harry's death, the first being that the sudden change of Seth and Leah into werewolves provoked his heart attack and subsequent death,[1] and the second being that their transformation was caused by the shock of losing their father. It was confirmed in The Twilight Saga: The Official Illustrated Guide that it was Leah's unexpected transformation that caused his heart attack while Seth's transformation was caused by his death.
However, in the New Moon film, his heart attack is the result of an encounter with Victoria.
His seat on the Quileute Council was filled by his wife Sue, who would take care of the humans who learned about the shape-shifters' world.

Topic: Head RAZZ Takes a BITE Out of TWILIGHT SBD #1
Posted: November 14 2011 at 9:08am
AMONG THEM, the FIRST THREE TWILIGHT MOVIES GARNERED a BERRY LUCKY 13 RAZZIE® NOMINATIONS. BUT TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING WIND PART 1 HAS the POTENTIAL to POSSIBLY DOUBLE the SERIES' NUMBER of "WORST in FILM" NODS.
THE TEASER (YOU TUBE LINK) with a LEGGY, STILLETO-HEELED MESSENGER DELIVERING WEDDING INVITES and SEVERAL LONG-ESTABLISHED CHARACTERS REACTING to the "HAPPY NEWS" WAS a TOTAL HOOT -- IF THESE CHARACTERS' NOSTRILS FLARED AS MUCH in the MOVIE AS THEY DID in THAT TEASER, THEY MIGHT'VE TAKE FLIGHT!
...AND the FILM ITSELF DOES THAT TEASER SEVERAL BETTER: WE NOT ONLY GET to WITNESS the "CREATURE/FEATURE WEDDING of the YEAR," WE ALSO GET to EXPERIENCE:
STUMBLE-BUMPKIN STELLA's PREGNANCY (SEE FOTO BELOW)...
JUTT-JAWED and SHIRTLESS JACOB OVER (RE) ACTING...
SPARKLY VAMPIRE (and HAIR-MOUSSE-ABUSER) EDWARD's OVER-PROTECTIVENESS of HIS BORING-as-HELL BRIDE...
AND, (ALMOST) the BIRTH of the MOST ANTICIPATED MOVIE SPAWN SINCE ROSEMARY's BABY.

about a cake, some birds and green pigs
In fact we celebrated his birthday one week ahead when he came home for the weekend. We tend to forget our wedding anniversary...either we got the dates wrong or totally forget about it. Somehow, we will remember each others birthday...maybe we have celebrated our past 26 birthdays together and so we must have written the dates in permanent ink...in our heads?
banana sponge cake baking craze, I tweaked the recipe, and turn it into a chocolate banana cake. I didn't put too much effort into frosting the cake either. I just covered it with a simple 'pour it over' chocolate ganache and topped the cake with some chocolate hazelnuts. Naturally, with my half-hearted effort, the cake didn't look nice at all. But, at least it is edible!
Hearty Bakes, sent me a wilton cake leveler...together with many other goodies and tools. I am now able to slice my sponge cake into very even layers :)
Thanks Jessie!!!
I can't remember when was the last time I gave my better half a birthday present! Whatever he likes, either I can't afford or I won't know which is the right one to buy...you know, those electronic gadgets or whatnots that most men like. I don't even want to bother myself to shop for yet another shirt, tie or wallet.
My younger kid made the slingshot or what we call catapult...I was quite impressed with it as he didn't have to refer to any illustrations. For me, I don't even know the 'power' of the various birds, and it was only after making the entire set that I got to know the 'story' behind why the birds are so angry and why they have to engage in such a suicidal mission...hauling themselves wholesale at those smirking green pigs.
(afternote: I didn't post up the recipe earlier since I thought no one will be interested. Upon request by one or two of readers, here's the recipe...but be warned, this recipe doesn't come with any guarantee of success!)
Chocolate Banana Cake
(makes one 8" cake)
to make Sponge Cake Layer:
Refer to banana sponge cake recipe here. Instead of 150g cake flour, change it to 120g cake flour and 30g cocoa powder.
Note 1: Sieve the cocoa powder with cake flour, baking powder, baking soda at least 3 times before using. When ready to use, sieve it over the batter again. Don't skip this step as cocoa powder tends to clump up.
Note 2: It is kind of difficult to fold in cocoa powder as it tends to form lumps so do it slowly and gently, try not to deflate the batter too much. Remember to fold in the cocoa powder and flour mixture in 3 separate additions.
When cake is cooled off completely, slice it horizontally into two layers.
to make Chocolate Ganache:
150g non-dairy whipping cream (or use heavy cream)
150g dark chocolate, coarsely chopped
25g unsalted butter
- Place chopped chocolates in a bowl.
- Heat cream over Low heat in a saucepan. Once the edges of the cream starts to bubble, remove from heat immediately.
- Pour the cream over the chocolates. Let stand for 1 minute.
- Stir the mixture gently with a spoon till smooth.
- Add the butter and stir till smooth. Use immediately
to assemble:
Place a layer of sponge cake on a cake board. Pour about half of the chocolate ganache on to the surface. Spread evenly with a spatula. Place the second layer of sponge cake over. Pour the rest of the ganache over the top and spread it over to the sides with a spatula. Leave cake to chill in the fridge for at least 30 mins or until the ganache is set.
to make Chocolate Glaze:
150g non-dairy whipping cream (or use heavy cream)
150g dark chocolate, coarsely chopped
50g unsalted butter
- Preparation is same as Chocolate Ganache. Use immediately
Remove chilled cake from fridge. Place a rack on a baking tray (to catch any excess glaze). Place cake on the rack. Pour the chocolate glaze over the cake, make sure to pour the glaze over the edges to let it flow down to the sides. If necessary, spread the top and sides evenly with a spatula. Leave to chill (together with the rack and baking tray) in fridge to let the glaze set. If necessary, trim off any jagged edges at the bottom. Transfer to serving plate. Store any leftover cake in fridge for up to 3 days.

HHB, this chocolate cake looks seriously GOOD! Not too fancy but all deliciousness!ReplyDelete
I think you did an amazing job with the cake :) So moist and all the chocolate on top makes it spectacular! The figurines are so cute, you have very talented kids, well, like their mother :) Happy Birthday to your husband!ReplyDelete

hi hiReplyDelete
the cake looks so moist and yummy! can share the recipe? i am attracted by the fact that it is low in fat! and the figurines look really cute..i am never good at such things so this is v impressive to me! and your boys are indeed talented in this, including your older one. i think mine will be worse than his :)
Love those angry birds and smirking pigs. At first I thot they were made of sugar, and you had them on another cake you baked :P But I must say, they were very well made. Looks like your children have your creative genes!!ReplyDelete
Can you please share with me your "pour on" choc ganache recipe please. Thanks.
Your post has bought a smile to my dreary day- thank you! You have a very sweet brood and I love the fact that food glues your family together.ReplyDelete
So inspired now, maybe I should think about baking my first cake for our 20th anniversary this year ....
One question : how did you bake the cake until it is so nice and flat in the middle ?
Your cake looks so yummy! And you take wonderful pictures. I always enjoy seeing them. I love to bake, too, but don't have much time anymore.ReplyDelete
love those figurines! i, for one, still has not caught the angry birds craze. :PReplyDelete
lovely cake too. :)
Wow the clay figurines are REALLY impressive!! Awesome job by you and the boys!! I'm sure your hubby would have felt the love and effort that went into making such a personal gift :)ReplyDelete
- Michelle13/4/11 11:08 am
Hi HHB,ReplyDelete
How much cocoa powder did u put? And how much cake flour to reduce? U slice the cake into half and spread some granache in the middle?
- Anonymous13/4/11 11:28 am
Nice looking figurines!
May I know where you get those to mould ? You need to have different colours right ?
Ha, I am the first to comment :)ReplyDelete
No doubt you did not put alot of deco on the cake, but you put the whole heart into him for that past 26 years :)
I always like simple cake, so this is very good. My boy's birthday just passed last saturday and again, I had no time to even attempt a cake for him, so you can see how well you have done.
The chocolate cake look so yummy .. I think I want to bake one soon too, with ganache like yours. Wait till I bug u for the exact recipe .. you know I cannot tweak :)
And very nice figurines you 3 made .. so small, 1cm .. I doubt my hand is able to mould them. I tried before, with jumping clay too, at a roadshow .. really no joke .. took so long to make a snail .. will show u when i take a picture. (I sure owe u alot of pictures)
The Angry Bird figurines are really nicely done!!! It is also a nice bonding opportunity with your kids, I am sure you enjoy every bit of it. :)ReplyDelete

Greetings hhb!ReplyDelete
Your cake looks so so good and professional! The cross section is so moist too, nice to have a cuppa with this cake.. yumm..
I did one ganache covered cake and it flopped.. the ganache was so uneven.. think i got to practise more..
I can imagine the fun making the figurines with kids, a perfect bonding time ;)
Got to say those angry bird figurines are very cute, lol! Your boys are indeed very skillful in making these. My hubby & i are just like you folks...the anniversary or wedding dates are all forgotten but birthdays are always remembered...delicious looking cake!ReplyDelete
Very cute angry birds figurines! I can't imagine they are so small, it makes the work even more tedious. Do u use special tools to make the tiny eyes, ears, etc?ReplyDelete
HHB, you are too humble. Your cake looks incredibly good. I am sure your husband liked it a lot and appreciated your effort.ReplyDelete
Can you please share the chocolate ganache recipe?
Lovely cake, pls share the chocolate ganache recipe with us soon. Tks.ReplyDelete
beautiful and delicious cake! great job HHB!ReplyDelete
Hi HHB good day, the chocolate cake looks mouthwatering and really chocolatey :) Your husband must be really proud. The clay figures are also cute,congratulations for the great work!ReplyDelete
Happy Belated Birthday to your hubby!ReplyDelete
Chocolate & banana indeed a good pair for a cake. The frosting is classic and i love using ganache too :)
Glad that the cake leveler is of good use, very neat slice there!
wow...i'm impress with the angry birds creation! Friend,u should try fondant! Using the same technics and your creativity, i'm sure you will come out beautiful figurines for cakes.
Meaningful pressies for your hubby and many hours of fun for you and kiddos ;)
A beautiful and nice cake! Your husband is lucky to have you.ReplyDelete
Thanks for sharing the recipe.ReplyDelete
U used non-dairy whipping cream in your ganache? I always have the perception that non-dair whipping cream can't be heated/cooked. I learn something new today.
Hi hhb, u hv outdone yrself again! This cake looks so pro ;-)ReplyDelete
I hv never done any cake that required frosting/decorating so far, u hv inspired me so that i may attempt one soon!
Angry birds & co. look so lifelike, but it's e thought & effort that make e gift so 窝心!
i think you have given me a great idea what to do with my son's coming birthday!! He loves angry birds A LOT!!! ha ha.....ReplyDelete
the chocolate cake looks so soft and moist. Yumm yumm!
wow the inside of the choc cake looks so moist and yummy! and when i first saw the figurines i thought they were made out of fondant and for the cake! They look so so good - your kids have serious talent :DReplyDelete
I think this years' cake looks amazing!! I think it looks very elegant, and very different from the fun cake that you and your kids made last year (which also looks amazing, btw!)ReplyDelete
That cake looks so intensely chocolatey! I would kill for a slice right now. And how adorable are those Angry Birds figurines- your kids really have a knack for craft!ReplyDelete
HHB, I am outdated, I don't know what's this game about ;pReplyDelete
The cake looks simple but nice ^_^
HHB, i think this is a great effort (: the cake look so divine! and those figurines are so cute!ReplyDelete

First time commenting :) Delicious looking cake and amazing figurines!! Did you know Angry birds is from Finland?! You've got a great blog!ReplyDelete
-Reader from Finland =)
a very delicious looking cake..ReplyDelete
The Experimental Cook, I didn't make any special effort...the cake will dome slightly in the centre...but after inverting (to cool), the centre is quite flat(refer my banana sponge cake pic). I guess if your cake domed too much...it could be due to the oven temperature...maybe too hot? or you may have used a wrong size pan? if you were to use a smaller pan size, the cake will dome and tend to crack in the middle too. Anyway, most cookbooks will suggest to slice away the domed part so as to get very even layers.ReplyDelete
dotz, nah, all we got was just a few chuckles from him!
Ling, I bought the jumping clay from Popular Bookstore...the branch at Bras Besah. It comes with a few basic colours, you can mix the colours together to form other colours/shades.
Sherlyn, you are not the first leh. Your children are younger, trust me, you will have more time as they grow up. With some practise, you should be able to make the figurines...not that difficult actually...but I have 'lao huao' so it really straining for my eyes!
SSB, no we dont use any tools, although we were given a set of jumping clay tool kit...we dont actually know how to use them and their specific purpose! The eyes and ears are all handmade...the clay are just tiny speckles of dots...so can be quite difficult to handle...especially since I have long sighted now :'(ReplyDelete
Hearty Bakes, thanks so much for the gift!
I dont think I will ever make any fondant since we won't eat it especially after I found out how much sugar goes into making it.
Cook.Bake.Love, yes you can also heat the non-dairy whipping cream...I have used it to 'cook' marshmallows for a mousse cake.
neyeeloh...I only got to know it recently too!
Reader from Finland, yes I read about the origin of the Anrg Birds :) I have yet to travel that far, but will certainly make it a point to visit Finland!
- Michelle14/4/11 12:26 pm
Thanks for posting the recipe. What brand did u get for the heavy cream. Cos i have not come across heavy cream in the supermkt, only thicken cream. ThanksReplyDelete
hi HHB!ReplyDelete
Love reading your blog all the time!
can i check with you, the ganache and glaze recipe is almost the same (except the amt of butter used). Does it matter if I make more of either and use for the cake? sorry i'm not sure the difference between usage of ganche and glaze. the cake sure looks good. so wanna try it!!!
Michelle, for this cake, I used non-dairy whipping cream. For heavey cream, it is also known as Thickened Cream for some brands. I usually use this brand 'Bulla' which is easily available from most supermarts.ReplyDelete
Oleagopoly, thanks for reading my blog :)
Yes, the ganache is almost the same but the butter amount is different. The term glaze is used to differentiate the two, also the glaze uses more butter so it is more glossy, and good for coating the cake. Even if you make the same thing, you still need to do it twice (separately), because the ganache/glaze needs to be used immediately, if not it will solidify. Although this cake is quite easy to put together, you need to follow the sequence of the steps closely. Hope this helps :)
This looks good, now I'm tempted to bake a chocolate cake too!ReplyDelete
The cake looks perfect, like everything else that you bake! Happy birthday to your husband. :)ReplyDelete
What a lovely entry :) The cake looks perfect (you can't go wrong with banana and chocolate), and the Angry Birds figurines are too adorable! Your kids are so talented :)ReplyDelete
Hi HHB, I follow your recipe baked this cake, turned out so delicious, my family love it.ReplyDelete
Thank you for sharing, have a nice day.

Hi thanks for the infor, that will keep them busy!ReplyDelete
Thanks for the award!!!! Love the "Angry Birds" that you made! So funny!ReplyDelete
Your chocolate cake looks delicious! So moist and tempting!
Hi Soh, I am glad that you took up the challenge to try this recipe...and I am so happy to know that it works well :):)ReplyDelete
- Anonymous21/4/11 12:28 pm
Dear HHB, i think you are such a wonderful mum. I doubt i have the patience to sit with my kids to do the figurines. The angry birds really look good.ReplyDelete
Thanks for telling us so much about yourself. I'm always inspired by your blog.
Thanks HHB! yes you've brought up a wonderful point. I would have gotten lazy and made a load of glaze/ganache for the whole cake (engineer mindset la, must maximize time minimize work hahaa). Thanks for the reminder else I'll be so upset with the lump of chocolate that dries up!!ReplyDelete
I remembered asking you about the pound cake (peach pound cake) and how I still flop at cake flour (yes yes triple sift!!)... have gotten lazy these days coz i'm heavy into pregnancy (I can only manage cheesecake ;P), but yup! look forward to making a proper layer cake when I'm capable!
Else I can just do the ganache and decorate a Sara Lee cake of some sort for fun. HAHA. actually coz my husband mistook the whipping cream as COCONUT cream when he was cooking curry some time back (I had to scream STOP!! :P), so I have an opened, but frozen whipping cream in the freezer waiting to be used. LOL. I suppose I can still defrost it and use it?
Hi Oleagopoly, yes, you can defrost the whipping cream and use it.ReplyDelete

Seven out of 10 Americans are not afraid to fly on Sept. 11.
That's according to AAA Chicago Motor Club. Of a survey by AAA Chicago Motor Club, only 31 percent of Americans said that the Sept. 11 date would prevent them from flying.
Travelers also say although they are not afraid to fly, security at the nation's airports is a concern.

CIRAS Annual Review of Manufacturing Available Online
AMES, Iowa — An annual review of manufacturing by the Iowa State University Center for Industrial Research and Service shows that Iowa's manufacturing sector continued its post-recession recovery, adding jobs through 2011. Employment in this sector, however, is still 10 percent lower than prerecession levels in 2007.
While manufacturing remains a vital part of Iowa's economy, future manufacturing employment standings may not return to historical levels, said CIRAS Director Ron Cox. With global competition, technological change and evolution in staffing practices, the manufacturing sector requires fewer workers than in the past. Consequently, even a healthy and growing manufacturing sector in Iowa might not be a source of as many new jobs as historically expected, Cox added.
The complete report is available from the CIRAS website at www.ciras.iastate.edu/Manufacturing_In_Iowa_2012.pdf.
The CIRAS annual manufacturing review is based on analysis of data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis, Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Census Bureau and International Trade Administration. Key findings from the report include the following:
- There are more than 5,980 manufacturing firms in Iowa.
- Manufacturing contributed $27.6 billion to Iowa's economy in 2011.
- Iowa ranks sixth among all states in its percentage of gross domestic product from manufacturing.
- More than half of Iowa's manufacturing jobs are located in nonmetro areas.
- The average manufacturing job in Iowa paid $51,120 in wages and salaries in 2011.
- Iowa exported $11.7 billion worth of manufactured goods to other countries in 2011.
Other notable findings
Manufacturing in Iowa remains diversified. The state's manufacturing sector is about evenly split between durable and nondurable goods production. Recent employment growth has been concentrated in the durable goods sector. During 2010–2011, employment in nondurable goods — such as food, printing and chemical manufacturing — declined by half of a percent.
The report also found that nearly half of the manufacturing firms in Iowa are "non-employer firms" with no paid employees other than the owner/operator. Only 293 firms — or approximately 5 percent — have more than 500 employees.
About CIRAS
The Center for Industrial Research and Service — CIRAS — is part of the College of Engineering and Extension and Outreach at Iowa State University. This year CIRAS is celebrating its 50th anniversary of partnering with Iowa companies and communities to help them prosper and grow, Cox said.
"Last year companies that worked with CIRAS reported $414 million in impact — new investments, higher sales and lower costs. Healthy communities through business prosperity: that's the CIRAS vision for Iowa," Cox said.

Report from Huffingtonpost.com
Ever since those adorable photos of Prince Harry and Cressida Bonas hit the Internet(and crushed our dreams of becoming a princess), we've been trying to piece together who Prince Harry's girlfriend really is and just how serious they're getting.
Turns out it's more serious than we thought! Vogue Italia and the Daily Mail report that the 24-year-old blonde has invited Prince Harry to join her at her half-sister's wedding in the coming weeks, which everyone knows is basically one step away from the proverbial "meeting the parents."
The wedding is to take place near Kruger National Park in South Africa, where Harry will be spending time anyway for several official royal engagements starting Monday.

Twitter Roundup: What Halloween Candy are you Excited to Steal (ahem, Borrow) From Your Kids?aggieskitchen
Halloween candy is just for the kids, right? Ha! We don't think so! According to the responses we got when we recently asked moms on Twitter what Halloween candy they were most excited about, we found that…moms sure do like candy.
Now, I personally have a few favorites…Reeses Peanut Butter Cups and Kit Kats being high on the list. I like play it safe thought and not buy any candy that I have a weakness for to put in our trick-or-treater bowl. I tend to lean toward the more sugary, non-chocolate candies (the ones I have no desire to eat!) to fill the bowl with so I'm not tempted to start my Halloween candy binge two weeks early. Smart huh? I think so. We do what we have to do…
Here's what candy other moms can't wait to
steal borrow from their kids:
Don't forget to chime in yourself…tell us, what is your favorite Halloween candy?

Painting was delivered in a timely manner and was well packaged. Having been in Le Gare St. Lazare in Paris, I wanted this painting as a reminder of the beauty of French railway stations. I love it.

- The Print
- The Artist
Claude Monet (1840 – 1926), the founder of Impressionism, was one of the most influential landscape painters in the history of art. Born in Paris, Monet was enrolled in the studio of Glenyre, where he met Renoir, Sisley, and Bazille, who became the core of the Impressionist group. Painting outdoors, he broke the tradition of portraying a subject literally by conveying the fleeting effects of atmosphere, time of day, and season upon color and light. Eliminating black and gray from his palette, he represented natural color like a prism, breaking it down into its individual components, often painting a series of the exact same view under different light and weather conditions. Monet brought the study of the transient effects of natural light to its most refined expression, ultimately becoming a forerunner of 20th century modernism.
