Tomato Bisque and Fancy Grilled Cheese
September 25, 2013 in Cassie, kid friendly, Lunch, Main Dishes, Soup, Winter Eats
In the dead of winter, what's better than tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches? It's a staple in our house, that's for sure.
I had been on a mission to find the perfect tomato bisque soup. I think I made about four different kinds before I came across this recipe and it was exactly what I was looking for.
Apparently the secret to a good, hearty tomato bisque is butternut squash.
I know. I was just as surprised as you.
This is one of those recipes where you really have to use the onion and the fresh garlic as opposed to onion flakes and garlic powder. You've been warned.
Please don't let roasting a butternut squash keep you from trying this. It's as simple as brushing your teeth.
The sandwich was an invention of my husband's for my birthday a few years back. As I remember, that was one of the best birthdays I've ever celebrated.
It's a very versatile sandwich as well, however, it needs a cheese with a presence. No mild anything for this one. Sharp, tangy, awesome. So don't be afraid to play with the lunch meats or cheeses, but try to make sure it's a good cheese. The first time I ever had it, we used extra sharp cheddar. Brilliance in a sandwich.
Here's how to do it!
Tomato Bisque Soup
recipe adapted from Mel's Kitchen Cafe
1 medium butternut squash (for about 1 1/2 cups cooked squash)
1 tablespoon butter
¼ cup finely diced onion
4 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 can (20 ounces) whole tomatoes
1 cup chicken broth
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon sugar (add more or less to taste)
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 cup milk (I've used whole milk and 1%, as well as half and half)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Set to roast the butternut squash by cutting the squash in half, lengthwise, so you have two long pieces. Scoop out the seeds and pulp from each half. Place both sides cut-side down in a 9X13-inch pan. Add water to the pan, filling it about half way. Cover with foil and bake for about an hour. Depending on the size of the squash, you may need to cook it longer. Test with a fork. The outside should give way easy when finished baking.
Remove the pan from the oven and transfer the squash to a large cutting board or plate. Let it cool about 15 minutes before scooping out the flesh.
You can prepare the squash the day before, simply scoop out the inside and place in a tupperware. Make sure to let it cool completely before covering and refrigerating.
Otherwise, place the scooped out squash into a blender.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and cook the onion until soft. Add the minced garlic and cook, stirring constantly, about 30 seconds. Dump the the mixture into the blender.
Add the canned tomatoes (undrained) to the blender. Set the blender to low, gradually increasing speed until the mixture is smooth. If it's not blending easily, slowly add the chicken broth to the blender and continue to mix. Pour the blended mixture back into the saucepan and add the chicken broth (if you didn't already add it to the blender,) salt, sugar, basil. Give it a good stir. Heat over medium heat for about 10 minutes to let the ingredients mingle. Turn heat down to medium-low and add milk. Heat long enough to allow soup to remain warm and serve immediately.
recipe from my Husband's brain
Fancy Grilled Cheese
2 slices of bread, cut thick
1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tbs ketchup
1 tbs mustard
turkey, sliced thick from the deli
extra sharp cheddar cheese, sliced
In a small bowl, mix together egg, parmesan cheese and garlic powder.
Prepare a griddle or pan, set to medium to medium low heat. This will burn quickly, so don't over do it.
In a separate bowl, mix ketchup and mustard together.
Dip the bread in the egg mixture and place in a pan. Spread the ketchup/mustard mixture on the bread while in the pan. Add the turkey and cheese. Dip another slice of bread in the egg mixture and place on top of the sandwich, egg side up.
Be careful not to let this burn. Let cook until golden brown, about 2-4 minutes each side.

In an apparently uncontested move earlier this month, Enterprise Linux and JBoss vendor Red Hat announced it's assuming the stewardship of the open-source Java development project OpenJDK 6 -- an effort to extend the serviceable lifetime of the existing Java 6 platform.
The company did not mince words, saying it took this step "to continue to help drive the future of Java and of OpenJDK."
The change sets the stars of enterprise SaaS more in alignment, as the company behind JBoss, the leading open-source middleware package, makes a play for leadership, if not outright control, of the runtime platform upon which JBoss depends.
The three principal middleware platforms that are critical to any SaaS deployment are JBoss, IBM's WebSphere, and Oracle's Fusion. There was a time when JBoss was automatically considered to have the advantage.
The whole purpose of middleware is to enable communications between software components through standardized interfaces, so it only makes sense for middleware to be produced through an open-source community process. In addition, Java was, at one time, considered the applications platform with the smoothest on-ramp for developers. Some would argue SaaS exists because of Java.
But ever since Oracle's acquisition of Java creator Sun Microsystems in 2010, theres been the outstanding question of just how "open" Java can continue to be. Granted, a language platform does not have to be open-source to be practical or successful, but an interface should be. While Sun was actually flattered that Google would want to emulate the Java runtime for its Dalvik mobile runtime platform, Oracle has taken the opposite stance, defending its position that any commercial interpretation of the Java virtual machine requires licensing.
In October 2010, IBM said it would join with Oracle in stewarding OpenJDK. That move led to the dissolution of another open-source Java implementation, Apaches Harmony.
It also led to a skeptical reception by some in the community, especially after a rewriting of OpenJDKs bylaws stacked the board with vendor representatives, reducing the community to a non-executive role.
While the matter may seem like petty squabbling on the surface, it actually has a direct impact on the evolution of SaaS, including the near term.
Unless Red Hat wants to direct its Enterprise Linux customers to Oracle in order for them to download a Java that runs with their operating system, they need a Java implementation that can be legally and freely distributed. And it seems odd somehow to have Oracle and IBM take charge of managing Red Hats only free alternative. You might think those two companies would find it in their best interests to stall.
Coincidentally, "stalled" almost perfectly describes the state of Java. Along with the inclusion of a bypass that enables users to execute unsigned code, the state of security for the latest Java 7 has been riddled with more holes than a plot for a Transformers movie. As a result, enterprises have been reluctant to make the upgrade.
Oracle extended support for Java 6 as long as it felt it could, but finally made its final update last month.
Now, Red Hats move may be perceived not just by the community, but by customers as well, as a way to save Javas evolution from derailment. Specifically, this helps by more closely aligning it with the key component that makes Java both useful and affordable in the enterprise.
Al Hilwa, IDC's program director for applications development software, tells me the move places Red Hat closer to the driver's seat, if not directly in it:
It means that customers may begin to associate Red Hat as a company more involved in the leadership of Java in general, and may look favorably on the value of its support offerings. I would say this has a positive mind share and business effect in the long run for Red Hat and its JBoss offerings.
What, I asked Hilwa, does this say for the continued role of IBM and Oracle, which are not officially out of the OpenJDK picture?
For the key Java players, they all win if Java is seen as a cross-vendor standard. IBM is already perceived as a powerful player in Java, and its participation in OpenJDK and investment since 2010... has been a big plus for Java. I dont think Red Hat leading on OpenJDK 6 takes anything away from that.
While Oracle may own the intellectual share of Java, Red Hat may very well have just placed a bid for the mind share of its supporters. It could be the bid they were looking for.

"Organizations have the option of commercial or open source."
@ MDM: Exactly. It all depends on what their strategy levels are and how competitive they want to be in the market. Time will decide it.

Behind the Scenes with Ravi Shankar
Ravi Shankar is the force behind Drunken Boat, and one of the first contributors to our second issue. We first met at Oulipo in New York, co-sponsored by Drunken Boat. Here is the fruit of our recent conversation:
LEE BERMAN: Could you talk about the process of writing "Louis & Zelda," in particular any formal constraints employed?
RAVI SHANKAR: Absolutely — in fact the poem that eventually ended up being written was quite distinct from what I had initially envisioned, which was a tritina with the added constraint that each stanza need include a colon. I'll include the poem here, simply because it's a piece that continues to resonate for me, though it was not suitable for UpRightDown because it was insistently lyrical and not narrative.
An Unverifiable Theorem
The gun once introduced must be forgotten
because its snub-nose gives a pocket the weight
of syllogism: no posthumous event can affect us.
Or, say, after it occurs, death cannot affect us:
it's impossible to imagine what we have forgotten
when who we were no longer has any real weight.
Stripped of consciousness a body has the weight
of water evaporating from a lake: breath leaving us.
Once introduced the gun cannot be forgotten.
The weight of the forgotten: not what leaves us.
When I heard back from UpRightDown, I was told that I needed to tell the story of episode one, by including all or most of the narrative elements. So it was back to the drawing board and I decided to take a completely different tack. In the case of "Louis & Zelda," my constraint was very simple: writing the entire piece as one sentence, a nervous system populated by a ganglia of clauses, each expanding upon and extending into the details of the first episode. I created a back story, fleshed out my impressions of the characters, give them a certain psychological dimension and complexity, with the hope that I might harness the momentum of the narrative to end, as Raymond Chandler might have counseled, on the pivotal gun. One breathless sentence, parsed into couplets and ending with a colon.
LEE BERMAN: Let's talk about narrative poetry. Is the distinction narrative vs. lyrical (or prose vs. verse) important or valid to you? What was it like to turn a given narrative (plot episode 1) into verse?
RAVI SHANKAR: A source no less eminent than Helen Vendler has divided all poetry into lyric or narrative (sending aside the epic mode for now), so it's a division that surely resonates for me. The lyric poem leaps, while the narrative poem develops; the space of the lyric is interiority, while that of the narrative is the external world; lyric poetry, to crib Walter Pater, aspires to the condition of music, while narrative poetry seeks out story; the lyric is about emotion and narrative, motion. Of course neither mode exists in a vacuum and they interpenetrate in most great works of poetry, but still I find it valuable to think in terms of song and story.
It was a challenge to turn a narrative into narrative poetry, simply because my predominant method is (neo)lyric; therefore I exploited enjambments and internal rhymes, allusion and analogy, all as means of differentiating my poem from the prose episode, even while telling the same story.
LEE BERMAN: As founding editor of Drunken Boat, you've been cross-fertilizing among the various arts (prose, verse, video, fiction, photography, web art, etc.) for years. Any advice for us novices at UpRightDown?
RAVI SHANKAR: First and most obviously, persistence is key. We just published our tenth anniversary issue this spring, yet pushing each issue out has been less certain than giving birth to a child. It feels every time like an impossibility, and it takes a great concurrence of magic and effort, sprinkled with a healthy dose of things beyond our control; for example, we published audio tapes of an interview with Norman Mailer because I happened to be teaching with one of his biographers and he had these audio tapes languishing in shoeboxes in his attic, which we then digitized. And in order to spread the word about our magazine we had to engage in guerilla-marketing, from dropping off postcards at bookstores around the world to emailing countless writers, artists and arts organizations. There's nothing wrong with a good dose of shameless self-promotion.
Next, take advantage of the vast network of distribution and mechanisms of exhibition available online. We're committed both to the egalitarian distribution of art and literature and to publishing work that could not appear in print. Our paradigm is essentially different than that of our print counterparts and keeping that always foremost in our minds helps us move forward. We publish audio of a poet reading alongside a poem, we LOVE works that use the medium of the web as part of their compositional strategy and we welcome work and readers from around the globe.
Finally, live events. We like to supplement our publication with performances, or in the John Cage vernacular, happenings, that bring together writers, artists, video and sound artists. These events give the journal a vitality that we would otherwise lack and help bring together the disparate worlds of multimedia arts in a tangible form.
LEE BERMAN: What is your earliest experience of poetry (reading it, writing it)?
RAVI SHANKAR: Most likely my earliest experience with poetry was attending ritual Hindu ceremonies with my parents, where most of the liturgy was in Sanksrit. Hearing the syllables of an ancient language whose connotative meaning I could not grasp yet whose music bubbled in my bloodstream and profoundly moved me was probably one of the foundational moments in my creative life. I realized then, even though I was not conscious of it, the power of orality, of the breath and of sound moving through the air, and those lessons propelled me into my first novice poems.
LEE BERMAN: Name the one book you would take with you to a desert island.
RAVI SHANKAR: I'm tempted to play the Borges card and take some Library of Babel with me, that book that contains all other books, though that's unfeasible and a cop out. Wow — when I'm confronted with such a question it brings me to the limits of my own erudition — do I take a book I've read multiple times and gleaned new insight from each time, like Moby Dick, about which Alfred Kazin said "gives us the happiness that only great vigor inspires"; do I take a book I've always meant to read but shamefully never have, like Finnegans Wake or Remembrance of Things Past? Do I take something like the Rig Veda or the Bhagavad Gita that provides the recurrent spiritual tropes of my heritage, else those thinkers, some Heraclitus or Emerson, who have spoken most poignantly to me? In the end, I could not choose, so I think I would take the one book that in a sense does contain all the others — the Revised Webster Unabridged Dictionary of 1913. I would spend my time on that island as a lexicographer and a wordsmith, poring over etymologies and mouthing pronunciations until I was ultimately washed over by sand crabs.
LEE BERMAN: Name the one movie you would take with you to a desert island.
RAVI SHANKAR: Hmm…well, if forced to make a choice, I think I'd take Krzysztof Kieslowski's Three Colours Trilogy: Blue/White/Red. For one, Kieslowski is a true master, for another the trilogy's re-imagination of the political ideals of the French flag –liberty, equality, fraternity — still resonate for me on multiple viewings. I love how the films work together and separately, with lucidity and ambiguity, in narrative and in metaphor. They are for me the cinematic embodiment of Keats's idea of negative capability and take the tropes of the comedy, the drama and the romance and turn them completely on their head. Plus Juliette Binoche, Julie Delpy and Irène Jacob are sexy as hell and stranded on a desert island, I think I just might find such company useful.
LEE BERMAN: Name the one web site you would take with you to a desert island.
RAVI SHANKAR: Of course this answer will be seen as equally evasive as the Borgesian response to a desert-island book, but I would have to say, after thinking of and discarding many sites that encompass music, literature, politics and culture, that I would bring along Google. That's pretty lame I know, and yet in my daily creative life, the multifaceted search engine has transformed the way I work in such a fundamental way that I can't imagine life without having such a resource at my fingertips. So, sheepishly, I have to go with that most orthodox of responses.

I didn't do it!First, let me dispel the rumor that has been circulating that I invented the computer. Not true. Just because I have worked with computers for over fifty years does not mean I invented them, or even that I know all about them. I got into this strange business as a computer user back in the days when a computer meant a room full of equipment. Back in the days of vacuum tubes, before transistors and other solid state devices came into being. From there I graduated into a "hacker". In those days, a hacker was simply someone who needed a computer job done and decided to teach himself to program so that he could do it. I learned Fortran first, and later programmed assembly language, Algol, APL and Basic. The last occurred when I bought my own first computer: a TRS 80 Model III. The good news about computers is that things change so fast that you can never "know it all." The better news is that, with the internet, you can't even come close. But the best news is that there are plenty of ways to find the answers you need to know!
My PassionsMy love of computers continues to this day, but now it's focused on website building, blogging, internet marketing and online network marketing. I am fortunate enough to be able to combine this with my two other passions - fitness and travel. If you share any of those interests, take a look at some of my other websites/blogs:
FitnessI have been a runner for a couple of decades now, and started a website for Half Marathon training a few years ago. However, I soon found that running distances is not enough to keep me fit: I felt the need for strength training as well. I have always hated machines and don't feel much better about free weights, but have now found a program that works for me and has had a lot of success with both runners and non-runners. Here is a link where you can read about it: My Fitness Site and this is my running site: My Running Site
TravelMy Vacation Site is a link to my vacation home on Roatan, in the Bay Islands of Honduras. You can see what it looks like, and even rent it if you like! The picture (taken on Roatan) is of me with my girl friend Samantha and my wife Billie. (Billie is the one on the right!) You can swim, snorkel or dive with Samantha and her friends at Anthony's Key provided you book ahead.
NetworkingMy Networking Blog covers a lot of topics, from computer security to personal development. I'm working on narrowing the scope, but meanwhile you're sure to find something of interest there! And of course, I'm on several social sites. You'll find me on Facebook and Twitter as Alan Jenkin

Hey would you mind sharing which blog platform you're using? I'm looking to start my own blog in the near future but I'm having a hard time deciding between WordPress and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something unique. P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!

Hummer H2 Grill,H2 Intakes,H2 Tail Lights Super Sale
Body kits are not only for car racers. It is also for people who have creative spirits, fashioning their cars, according to their creativity and according to their personality.
As exterior modifications for your car, body kits can make your vehicle look cooler and more noticeable. Aside from that, body kits also enhance the aerodynamics of your vehicle by boosting its speed and performance. If you have a Hummer H2 body kits and you want to modify your H2, you can by all means use body kits.
It is not at all hard to look for an H2 body kit. One option for you is to look around your neighborhood and see which body shops offer it. If it happens that all the auto body shops in your area do not offer it, then the next best thing you can do is to just purchase and look for an H2 body kit online. Remember though that the online world is not safe just like the real world. Because you can now shop using the internet and because our economy do not improve, many people, out of desperation, are now scam artists. Be careful of scam artists who are always willing to do anything just to get your money. Be very careful of them. Actually, one way to protect yourself from them is to make certain that the online shop you will deal with is reliable and has a very good clientele. If they have a very good clientele, make certain that you verify their feedbacks as well as their testimonials. Also, better if you check with Better Business Bureau their legitimacy. BBB protects consumers by making sure all the companies, online or not, are legitimate and are always performing well. You are safe with a company that has a BBB seal because rest assured BBB is always checking and closely monitoring their dealings and customer feedbacks. According to BBB, thy ensure that high standards for trust are set and maintained. They exist so consumers and businesses alike have an unbiased source to guide them on matters of trust. They provide educational information and expert advice that is free of charge and easily accessible to those who want a secured transaction online. Aside from BBB, you can also phone Consumers Advocates and see if the online body kit shop you want to deal with has any reported misconduct. Consumer Advocates can tell you if you should avoid that company or continue to deal with it.
After ensuring yourself that body kit shop you are about to deal with is reputable, then the next step is to know which type of kit are you going to purchase. There are basically three types: lip, bumper replacement and wide body. Depending on the modification you will do and depending on your own creativity, you have the option to buy all three or buy just one. Aside from the types, you also need to decide which kind of H2 body kits is for you. Is it the urethane kit or the fiberglass? Urethane H2 body kit is for you if you are in an area where the weather condition is harsh and the roads are bumpy. If, on the other hand, you live somewhere calm with roads that well built then fiberglass is for you. It is important that you all know these tips so as to make sure you are going to make an informed decision.

(Serves: 6)
Braised Short Ribs
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 pound beef short ribs
1 medium onion, diced small
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon tomato paste or 1/4 cup tomato sauce
2 thyme sprigs
2 cups Brown's Whiskey Porter
1 1/2 cups dark chicken stock or veal stock
Potato Cakes
1 tbsp chopped rosemary
2 small baking potatoes
3 tablespoons flour
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup EVOO
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 ounces Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled or cut into small pieces
Tomato Jam
EVOO as Needed
2 each Tomatoes (Small Dice)
1 Cup Tomato Juice
¼ Cup Sugar
2 Each Garlic Clove (Minced)
1 Tsp Lemon Juice
1 Tbsp Basil Chiffonade
Salt/Pepper To Taste
Pickled Red Onions
1 # Red Onions, Thinly Sliced in "Rings"
3/4 Cup White Vinegar
5/8 Cup Rice Wine Vinegar
½ Cups Sugar
3/4 Tbsp Salt
1/8 Tbsp Pepper
Spice Sachet
½ Cinnamon Sticks
2 Each Cloves
1 Bay Leave
½ Each Star Anise
1 Tsp Red Pepper Flakes
1 Each Smashed Garlic Cloves
1 Tsp Sliced Fresh Ginger
Heat the oil in a Dutch oven or a large heavy bottom saucepot over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the short ribs sear until brown and crusty all over, about 5 minutes per side.
Remove the ribs and set aside. Add the onion and sweat for about 5 minutes, scraping the bits from the bottom of the pan as the onion releases some of its water. Stir in the garlic and tomato and cook an additional minute. Add the thyme and 1/2 of the beer to deglaze the pan. When the liquid has reduced by half return the ribs to the pot and then add the rest of the beer and the stock. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a bare simmer. Braise the ribs, partially covered, for 2 1/2 hours or until the meat is very tender and pulls away from the bone. (May need to add additional stock if braising liquid becomes too thick.)
About 30 minutes before the ribs are finished braising, make the potato cakes. Peel the potatoes and shred them on a cheese grater or with the grating plate of a food processor. Mix the potato shreds with the flour, egg, salt, and pepper.
Heat the EVOO in a cast iron pan or a wide, deep-sided frying pan. When bubbles form in the oil around the handle of a wooden spoon, carefully drop in tablespoonfuls of the potato mixture and flatten with a spatula. Fry in the hot oil until both sides are crispy and golden. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a baking sheet lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil. Continue frying in batches until all of the potato mixture has been used. Keep the potato cakes warm in a 200° F oven until ready to assemble.
When the ribs are done, pull the meat from the bone and shred it with two forks or by hand. Put a piece of gorgonzola cheese on of each potato cake and top with the shredded beef, warm tomato jam and chilled pickled red onion

The Vanguard REIT Index Fund (VGSIX) Did Its Job, Despite The Crash
It's no secret the recent bear market was brought on by the bursting of the massive residential real estate bubble. While commercial real estate is a bit of a different animal than residential real estate, commercial real estate is, as a general rule, quite sensitive to macroeconomic conditions. The reason is obvious: when times are tough, there's less demand for commercial property (retail space, industrial space, etc). With the possible exception of storage properties (people have to store their excess crap somewhere after being forced to down-size), commercial real estate promptly dropped like a rock off its 2006 highs.
The Vanguard REIT Index Fund
Perhaps the best way to invest in the commercial real estate market is via Real Estate Investment Trusts, or REITS. Investors in the Vanguard REIT Index Fund (VGSIX) have lost an average of 13.69% per year over the three year period ending 2/28/2010. Despite the fact that the REIT index fund has almost doubled over the last year, things haven't been pretty for REIT investors for quite some time, with the average REIT fund still well off its 2008 highs.
A Longer-Term Perspective
Looking at the fund's recent performance, one might understandably be a bit wary of investing in this asset class. Still, real estate has proven to be an effective diversified in the past and has a solid long-term track record. The Vanguard REIT index fund, which tracks a modified version of the MSCI US REIT Index, has almost 14 years of history now. Introduced on May 13, 1996, the fund has averaged 9.13% per year for the period ending 2/28/2010, a period that included one of the worst bear markets for real estate on record. Furthermore, the fund has consistently been a decent (although not great) diversifier for a portfolio of U.S. stocks, with a correlation coefficient of between 0.5 and 0.8 with the Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund (VTSMX) for the vast majority of the period.
Almost as importantly, the REIT index fund has adequately met one of the primary objectives of almost any real-estate focused mutual fund: providing a steadily growing stream of income for investors. While its current yield of 4.31% is less than the asset class's historical yield, it is still well more than double the yield of the total stock market. And as rents steadily climb while the economy slowly recovers, I believe REIT yields will someday regain a measure of their old luster.
So while it's true the past few years haven't been kind to REIT mutual fund investors, the fundamentals of the asset class remain strong and what's more, the long-term performance of real estate is still quite good even accounting for the recent bust! That is to say, it's probably as good a time as any to buy a REIT fund provided you're in it for the long term. This fund is a permanent fixture of my retirement portfolio.

Time Warner Can't Wait for Apple to Build a TV
Apple's longed-for à la carte channels-as-apps TV is proving remarkably slow to arrive. But Time Warner's CEO, Jeff Bewkes, can't wait to get one.
Apple's longed-for à la carte channels-as-apps TV is proving remarkably slow to arrive. But Time Warner's CEO, Jeff Bewkes, can't wait to get one.
According to a slide uncovered by the Verge, Best Buy is asking its customers for thoughts on a 42-inch, $1,500 Apple HDTV. And it sounds dreamy: runs iOS, full App Store and iCloud support, an iSight camera. Too bad it's all probably just a guess.
So much news passes before our collective eyes every day that we couldn't possibly cover it all. Mostly because much of it isn't worth covering! But here are a some borderline tidbits we passed on, just in case.
TV Guide was awesome. It told me what time the A-Team was on. Of course that was about a million years ago. You know, before smart phones. With i.TV finally on Android, I can now find A-Team reruns.
As Jason noted in his review, the Boxee Box was a really good local media streamer, but the software was also pretty damn buggy. Well hopefully that will change for the better now that Boxee has issued their first firmware update. Not only does it offer 30 bug fixes, it adds improvements to navigational and sorting…
We have collected all the information you need to know about today's Apple music event in a series of individual product articles. We just added the first hands-on impressions from the people who played with them in California.
Apple has revealed its new, streaming-only Apple TV. And it's just 1/4 the size of the old one. The tiny successor will pack built-in power supply, HDMI, ethernet, and 802.11n wireless, priced down to $99. (UPDATED: Now with hands on)
If you had to pick just one thing you want to see Apple dish out at tomorrow's music-centric event, what would it be?
There's been plenty of talk about a new AppleTV, but what about, y'know, the TV shows themselves? Bloomberg's reporting that Apple's working on bringing 99 cent TV rentals to iTunes, with Fox nearly locked and CBS and Disney close behind.
After the latest Apple TV rumor, an analyst claims—once again—that Apple will make a 40-inch TV for $2,000, perhaps with integrated apps, gaming and iPhones/iPad connectivity. If true, that would be a very stupid idea.
The story's been repeated before, most recently with the iPad: Apple dreams up the perfect product name, said product name is already spoken for, Apple buys/cajoles said name anyhow. But the rumored iTV may have to follow a different script.
Apple's yearly fall event is "definitely happening," according to AllThingsD, and mid-September is looking like an increasingly likely time for that event to happen. Reading the tea leaves, it seems like iPod Touches and AppleTVs will be the focus.
According to an Engadget source—the same one that said the next AppleTV would be a $99 unit with iPhone guts—Apple's next TV device will be rebranded iTV. And it will have apps, but it won't play 1080p video.
In this week's leisurely, labor-friendly app roundup: Watchmen grows up, and grows large; you avoid getting sick; lots of TV gets watched; and Robocop's got a few things to say to you.
i.TV 2.0 get a little closer to being the only TV app you need, with a refined UI, push notifications, and the big one: built-in TiVo remote, the first of several they're planning to add. Plus, it's less crashy. [iTunes]
The already first-rate i.TV program schedule app has a fresh trick: a universal remote control framework that could finally turn the iPhone into the ultimate all-in-one-clicker. To prove they're serious about this, they've nabbed a pretty great first partner: TiVo.
And by September! At least, according to the Telegraph, who says that the company is working out the terms of a deal that will open up streaming for over 3,000 hours of American content, as well as content from Channel 4 and ITV. That the Hulu content wall will come down is obviously great news, but that ITV and 4…
Netgear's ITV2000 Internet TV Player is half the size of the Roku Netflix Player and pulls from 90+ live streams (foreign news!), plus search clips from sites like NBC, ESPN and YouTube.
Navigating Apple's black box approval process and wondering when/if your app makes it has always been a part of iPhone app developers' trials, but for a change, Apple's actually warning devs about them.
It's been a rough week. We've seen so many stock market trend graphs looking like cross-sections of the Grand Canyon, so many sad traders. Doomsday proclamations a-plenty. So a hard week calls for an escape for hard rest, and thankfully, the App Store this week is eager to provide the visual and audio accompaniments…

We just saw a rather ugly spate of data from China, and the result has been a bit of a selloff in markets, from Asia to the U.S.
Not all stocks have been held back. Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX), for instance, just had its price target raised at Goldman Sachs and rallied 5% to start the week.
But commodity stocks as a whole are taking a beating. And don't expect the pain to end anytime soon.
You see, industrial demand from China remains the single-biggest driver of pricing for a host of materials and commodities. Base metals, from steel to copper to aluminum, and energy commodities like oil and coal and natural gas are all getting brutalized by the China slowdown.
Let's start with coal, because the pain is obvious. Arch Coal (NYSE:ACI) is off about 8% today and Alpha Natural Resources (NYSE:ANR) is off almost 10% — continuing a now 50% beating in the past year for both — on the ugly China news. Since the West is not as keen on coal as an energy source, the Asian market is crucial to these stocks. Unfortunately, that market might continue to dry up as growth slows — particularly in the energy-intensive manufacturing sector.
As for oil, keep in mind that the GDP numbers were just one set of data released by the state. China's oil demand slipped to a seven-month low in March and resulted in a sell-off of more than 3% in crude during Monday trading. That held back Exxon Mobil (NYSE:XOM) and BP (NYSE:BP), among other oil stocks, and makes them both about flat on the year despite a double-digit rally for the S&P 500 year-to-date.
Moving beyond energy, base metals have cratered and supply has crept up across the board. Here's a look at aluminum and copper over the past year:
Look at a chart of aluminum giant Alcoa (NYSE:AA) and copper king Freeport-McMoRan (NYSE:FCX), and you'll see a very similar pattern. Alcoa is off 18% in the past year. FCX is down 19% in the past 12 months and down 28% from its September peak.
The latest numbers from China will only confirm this trend and weigh on base metals. The fact that this ugly pricing picture has emerged amid a modest recovery in U.S. housing just goes to show that domestic demand can't offset the loss of demand at metal-hungry China businesses.
You get the picture.
Clearly most commodities are driven by global demand as well as China trends. But it's undeniable that the largest appetite for most commodities comes from the manufacturing might of China and the rabid demand for building materials amid a housing boom (or bubble, depending on your view).
As China goes, so go commodities. And right now China is under pressure.
With the SPDR S&P China ETF (NYSE:GXC) down roughly 10% since Jan. 1 and continued pessimism over GDP growth, it's likely that commodities and commodity stocks will continue to underperform in 2013.

Public sentiment is everything. With public sentiment nothing can fail. Without it nothing can succeed. He who molds opinion is greater than he who enacts laws.
Abraham Lincoln
You hear all kinds of things --- climate change is a hoax, the media is biased, tea partiers are racist, Obama is a socialist --- what's a mother to do? Cover our ears and shout out "TMI, TMI"? Ask our parents what they think? Adopt the water-cooler jargon of our office? Silently chant the mantra "I have no opinion, I have no opinion"?
President Obama gave some great advice during his commencement remarks at the University of Michigan this past week.
"If you're someone who only reads the editorial page of the New York Times, try glancing at the page of the Wall Street Journal once in awhile. If you're a fan of Glenn Beck or Rush Limbaugh, try reading a few columns on the Huffington Post website. It may make your blood boil. Your mind may not be changed. But the practice of listening to opposing views is essential for effective citizenship."
Let's take it one step farther. Whether you're speaking of the Wall Street Journal or the Huffington post, they're both rather parochially partisan. Take a step back and start checking out news media and opinion pieces from other global locales.
For instance, did you know that today in Ometepec Mexico, authorities found the headless bodies of three people - a police officer, hair dresser and builder - apparently victims of gang score-settling. Security forces rescued 17 kidnap victims who have family in the United States - they were being held for ransom. That information came from Australian and Canadian news sources but a Google search didn't turn up any mention of it on CNN, the most trusted name in news, or Fox, fair and balanced, or ABC, NBC or CBS or the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, or Huffington Post.
On another piece of news, US news outlets are carrying the story today about the 3 deaths that occurred during May 5th's riot against austerity measures in Greece. When you go to a European news source like the Daily Mail you learn that the three were bank workers and that the EU warns Britain's debt crisis will be worse than Greece's but again, a Google search finds that rather important piece of economic information missing from American news media today.
How about news regarding Iran? Both Chinese and Israeli sources report that Iran's navy started war games in the Persian Gulf. Again a Google search shows that just one US news organization picked up the story - Yahoo News aggragator using a Reuters Canada news release.
Take President Obama's advice and find out the news for yourself. Local is global and global is local in today's world. Nearly 200 years after Alexis de Tocqueville's stinging strings of criticism about the American people and our democracy, it truly is time to put this one to rest.
In the United States, the majority undertakes to supply a multitude of ready-made opinions for the use of individuals, who are thus relieved from the necessity of forming opinions of their own."

Katalans R KewlBarcelona, Fall 2011
Sooo, it's something I feel I finally have a grasp on, not completely, but enough to comment upon. The weird, sometimes elusive concept that one cannot see until you live, eat, and breathe as a member of a community. I'm talking about culture. This odd idea is truly odd when you try and conceptualize what culture is comprised of. Food, tradition, habits, and the overall feeling you get from a country or region. So why not try putting Catalan culture into words, and have those words rhyme. Catalan culture, enigmatic emotion, A prideful state, continuous commotion. Rebellious, anarchism lurks in the light. Separatism, discussed in plain sight. Catalans, more prideful than any I've seen, Arrogant too, but never very mean. Camaraderie, "Barce!" chants on the train. Graffiti, saying "Catalonia is not Spain". Food, nothing to rant or rave in Spain's name, However, tortilla, pan con tomate, are not to blame. Sangria, wine, make up for the fare, Taste and price, let them flow without care. Kids, live at home up until maybe thirty, Laundry, hung on lines once not dirty. Motos, on the streets wind and weave. Spain, it'll be hard to leave. -S

Kehoe to replace Julia Silva on the Crimson Tide coaching staff
Julia Silva joined the University of Alabama volleyball program as an assistant coach in 2011. In her second year with the program, Silva serves as the recruiting coordinator, oversee the setter position, and assist with the offensive game planning, as well as practice and game preparations. Prior to coming to Tuscaloosa, Silva spent three seasons (2008-10) as a member of the University of Tulsa coaching staff. During her three seasons as an assistant coach at Tulsa, the program compiled a 78-21 (.715) overall record, including a 31-3 mark in 2010. In 2010, Tulsa set a school record for single season wins (31) and won the school's first ever NCAA Tournament match, a 3-0 victory over No. 13 seeded LSU. She was also vital to the development of the team's setters, helping Jordan Clampitt win the Conference USA Setter of the Year award as a sophomore in 2010. Silva made the transition from player to coach after being a three-year letterwinner for the Golden Hurricane from 2005-07. A three-time Division I AVCA Honorable Mention All-America selection, Silva was a two-time Conference USA Setter of the Year award winner. Silva set school records for assists in a season each of her three years in a Golden Hurricane uniform, and was the first Tulsa setter to reach 4,000 career assists with 4,206. She is also the first TU volleyball player to have her jersey (No. 14) retired. Silva posted 68 double-doubles and 17 triple-doubles during her career for the Hurricane. She was named Conference USA Setter of the Week 14 times, including a record-setting six times during the 2007 campaign. Silva played in 366 sets at TU, while starting all 101 of TU's matches during that span. She led TU to a 77-24 record during her playing career, while finishing as one of TU's winningest players. Transferring to TU from Jefferson College in Hillsboro, Mo., Silva helped lead the Vikings to a 22-14 record and a regional runner-up finish as a freshman. She earned AVCA Second-Team All-America honors as well as NJCAA All-America honorable mention merits while at JeffCo, in addition to being an all-conference and all-region. Silva graduated from Tulsa in 2008 with a bachelor's degree in business marketing. She completed her master's degree in sport management at Alabama in 2012.

text: Our performance in 2013 reflected the good progress we have made in implementing the strategy that we set out in 2011. We grew reported profit before tax by USD1.9 billion, generated USD10.1 billion in core tier 1 capital, achieved an additional USD1.5 billion of sustainable cost savings, and declared USD9.2 billion in dividends in respect of the year. By continuing to deliver our strategy in 2014, I am confident that we can make further progress towards establishing HSBC as the world's leading international bank. Since I outlined our strategy in 2011, we have reshaped the Group, initiating the disposal or closure of 63 non-strategic businesses and investments. We have transformed the way that we run HSBC, making it easier to manage and control. We have invested in strategic markets, seeking to capitalise on the advantages offered by our international network. The HSBC Group today is leaner and simpler, with strong potential for growth. In 2013, reported profit before tax and underlying profit before tax were both higher than in 2012. Underlying profit before tax was higher in three out of our four global businesses and in every region with the exception of Latin America. Total underlying revenue grew 9 per cent faster than costs. The HSBC Group today is leaner and simpler, with strong potential for growth We delivered a further USD1.5 billion of sustainable cost savings, bringing the total annualised sustainable cost savings achieved since 2011 to USD4.9 billion – comfortably exceeding the target we set ourselves in May 2011. We continued to generate capital, enabling us to grow the business and to cement our position as one of the highest dividend payers in the FTSE. We are one of the best capitalised banks in the world and are well-placed to meet expected future capital requirements. 2014 marks the beginning of the next phase of implementing our strategy. Over the next three years we will aim to deliver the three strategic priorities that we announced in May 2013. We will continue to grow the business and dividends. We will continue to implement our Global Standards programme to strengthen our response to the threat of financial crime. And we will continue to streamline our processes and procedures, aiming to deliver a further USD2-3 billion of sustainable savings. We remain of the view that the GDP of mainland China will grow by 7.4 per cent this year, the UK by 2.6 per cent, the US by 2.5 per cent and Western Europe by 1.2 per cent. Although there has been a sharp sell-off in some emerging markets, we see this as a reflection of specific circumstances rather than a generalised threat. Overall, we remain optimistic about the long-term prospects of emerging markets and the opportunities for HSBC.

Filming is not yet underway but MGM's "RoboCop" remake hit another spot of bad PR this week with word that "Bus 174" and "Elite Squad" director Jose Padilha is having a tough time getting his vision across.
What's interesting is that the news is coming from Padilha himself or an anonymous source, rather its from his friend and acclaimed filmmaker Fernando Meirelles ("City of God"). Meirelles made the comments in a recent interview with Brazilian outlet Cinemacom Rapadura and here's a rough translation.
"I talked to José Padilha for a week by phone. He will begin filming Robocop. He is saying that it is the worst experience. For every 10 ideas he has, 9 are cut. Whatever he wants, he has to fight… 'This is hell here,' he told me. 'The film will be good, but I never suffered so much and do not want to do it again.' He is bitter, but he's a fighter" says Meirelles.
The project marks Padilha's first Hollywood feature and one of MGM's most valuable catalogue titles which explains why the studio is acting in a fairly draconian manner. The hope is that enough of Padilha's work will survive the studio notes and orders to at least deliver a workable film.

UCLA Head Coach Billy Martin
"It was just a great college match. We won one down there in a tiebreak, 11-9, and this one was 10-8. It shows that both teams are real close. Still, I am just proud of my guys. We fought to the bitter end. Being one point away doesn't make it feel that much better. It was a good year for a really young team, probably the youngest team I have ever had. I am still very proud of them and thought it was a great match. It's a tough one to lose, but obviously we were pretty close."
Baylor Head Coach Matt Knoll
"The thing that stands out is that we had the exact same match with them in February in Waco. That one they won 11-9 in third set tiebreaker. The two teams just couldn't be any closer. I thought we fought incredibly hard and honestly was really proud of both teams. It was just kind of a coin flip today and we were lucky to get the win."

Give a late-model pickup that retro look
For 1960, Chevrolet introduced a new generation of pickup trucks, the half-ton Apache C10. Gone were the traditional-style fenders, replaced by a body dominated by a hood that stretched across the full width of the truck's face, a face that included eyebrows above headlights set into the ends of the grille. Though the eyebrows would be trimmed back over the years, the design continued through 1966
Dan Fairbanks of Germantown, Wis., never owned one of those 1960-66 Chevy trucks, though he grew up with them and loved the design. But he also appreciated as the power windows, antilock brakes, airbags and other features on trucks he drives as president of Innovation Mold, which does plastic injection molding of ventilation fans, lawn mower parts, plastic parts for hand tools and other such products.
What Fairbanks wanted as a way to give his new truck an old look. After several years of development, Innovation Mold launched a subsidiary, Retrokits, to produce fiberglass panels that fit over the factory body panels of a 1988-98 Chevy full-size pickup so it looks like a 1960 or 1966 model.
"I drive mine to the gas station and it always draws a crowd," says Fairbanks, whose company has 18 full-time employees.
Retrokits panels attach over a truck's sheetmetal with 3M automotive adhesive. Once in place, they're there for good.
A full body kit includes front and rear fenders; roof; hood; grille shell and grille; headlamp rings and brackets, hardware and electrical plugs; fiberglass rear and steel front bumpers with mounting brackets and glue and applicator, and runs $3,995.
A front clip, which includes only those parts used on the front section of the truck, is priced at $2,995.
Retrokits offers full installation service that runs between $5,000 and $20,000, depending on whether a truck needs extensive bodywork (rust repair) and whether you want Retrokits to paint the truck.
Fairbanks hoped to have a 1955-57 Chevy retro kit in production by now, but instead is working on '60 and '66 kits for people with modern extended cab or Fleetside body styles.

In rupee terms, the crude oil price increased marginally to Rs 5857.93/bbl on Mar 4 as compared to Rs 5854.02/bbl on Mar 4.

The title character in Sacha Baron Cohen's upcoming The Dictator is not exactly pro-feminist.
Actually, he's just plain sexist.

Baxter and Louis took out a second mortgage on their home, and while still working full time at the ER, she started searching for an industrial-design company to refine her prototype. During this period of her life, she says, "I lost all pop-culture social currency. CSI? Mad Men? Grey's Anatomy? I never saw a single episode of any of those shows. The tiny details of running a business were overwhelming." Most design firms charge as much as $100,000 to work up a prototype, but she finally found a company that would do it for $12,000. "One of the people who worked there had children who were afraid of needles," says Baxter, "and they believed the product was important. But it's not like there's one fixed price. There's $1,000 here and a couple of thousand dollars there, and things add up. Each of the prototypes we made cost $1,000."
Several groups stepped forward with financial support for Buzzy, including the National Institutes of Health, from which she received a Small Business Innovation Research grant of $1.1 million. In the summer of 2008, Baxter hired her first employee (she now has six), and in the spring of 2009 she celebrated the arrival from China of her first shipment of Buzzys. "I felt this stunned, chilled satisfaction of having created something that never existed before," she says. The first batch sold so quickly that by November she needed another 5,000 units.
The second time around, the shipment was riddled with defects. Some Buzzys had sickly greenish stripes, others had blurry or off-center eyes, and a few buzzed so loudly that they sounded like chain saws. "One of the nurses at the hospital had a Buzzy from the second shipment," says Baxter. "It sounded like someone was using a jackhammer. Her eyes got really wide, and my eyes got wide, and there was a crowd saying, 'This can't be right,' 'This has been overhyped.' " Baxter and her employees had to go through all 5,000 Buzzys to remove the defective units. It then took three months of negotiations to get the company to replace them and put quality control procedures in place.
But that incident paled in comparison to what happened next. Baxter was in Las Vegas to deliver a lecture at the American College of Emergency Physicians. That evening, sitting in her hotel room checking e-mail, she spotted a message from one of her employees. The subject line read, "Oh no." The Chinese factory she'd hired to make tote bags for the Buzzys had burned down—or so its owners claimed. The totes, for which she'd already paid $10,000, had literally gone up in smoke. Despite interventions from both the Georgia Economic Development Office and agencies in China, she was never able to get the money back. Since then, Baxter has shifted all her production to the U.S.
Today, Baxter has fully transformed into the businesswoman she originally didn't want to be. She's on sabbatical from her medical practice and works full time on Buzzy. In the true entrepreneurial spirit, she doesn't dwell on setbacks and instead focuses on her customers, many of whom have filled her home with gifts, tokens and letters describing how Buzzy changed their lives. One boy with a needle-phobic sibling wrote to Baxter to thank her for giving him his family back. An Australian woman who had all but given up the idea of having children because she couldn't tolerate the fertility shots posted a message on Baxter's Facebook page (on Baxter's birthday), triumphantly announcing that Buzzy had made it possible for her to finally become pregnant. The face-to-face conversations with customers are especially meaningful. "After Karen Mae Sledge's visit, my employees and I felt elevated from being a small 'mompreneur' business to feeling as though we had a greater purpose," says Baxter. "If something happened to make Buzzy fail tomorrow, I would still be satisfied that I had made a difference." When she looked through the basket to see what Sledge had given her, one gift caught her eye: a bag of Life Savers.

It's a simple premise really. Giving a person a brand new pair of socks. What many take for granted by opening their drawer in the morning to get ready for the day, is not possible for many others.
Hannah's Socks is a community based non-profit organization dedicated to helping people affected by homelessness, poverty and domestic abuse in Ohio and Southeast Michigan. We collect and donate new socks and undergarments to those in need through shelter homes, public schools and direct distribution.
What began as the simple, intuitive wish of a four-year old girl to give a homeless man her socks has blossomed into a successful, nationally-recognized program that has helped hundreds of thousands of people in need and raised the awareness of how a simple act can change the face of poverty and homelessness in our region.
Hannah's Socks – helping to restore dignity one pair of socks at a time.
Have you heard about Bombas Socks? This new and innovative sock company has committed to donate a pair of socks to Hannah's Socks from each pair purchased. What are you waiting for? Find out how you can get a great pair of socks – and support the less fortunate at the same time. Thanks Bombas!
And help us help others.

Hot Topics: Killing Noro, Botox Breaks, and the Ultimate Laundry List
January 28, 2014 | By Cruise Critic | No Comments
Love reading the Cruise Critic boards? So do we! Every so often, we highlight a few forum threads that have made us laugh, cry or argue the finer points of cruising.
Bug killer: The norovirus outbreak on Royal Caribbean's Explorer of the Seas has created quite the discussion among members of our forums, understandably. While most of our readers understand that noro is not restricted to cruising, many are taking precautions, bringing cleaning wipes on board and taking extra care at buffets and elevators. On this thread, located in our Ask A Cruise Question forum, our members share tips on how to keep your cabin clean. Says dibh1129: "We are on the 1/31 Explorer sailing. I just ordered the medical grade stuff. I plan to decon our rooms (4 rooms – we are traveling with family) as we get on. After extensive research, regular Clorox and Lysol are useless. You need the medical grade stuff with bleach."
Lunchtime Lipo? A poster on our Holland America board wondered if anyone had used their shore excursion time for a few nips and tucks. While some CC members felt that there would be nothing wrong with a few fillers, most frowned upon the idea of serious surgery, particularly if you were only in port for a few hours. As dorisis put it, "If one is really interested in having any kind of medical procedures done in a foreign land; it would be best to travel directly to and from that land. Much too risky while on a cruise."
Watch your wash. When you travel with strangers, you're bound to run into some issues. But who knew there were so many problems in the laudromat? In our Princess forum, member Cassie_Zuzu outlined washer/dryer do's and don'ts. Chief among them: "If you put a load of washing on, please make it back in time to take your washing out of the machine once it has finished." Hard to argue with that. Latecomers, you've been warned.

High School is full of homework, social cliques, and football games...for normal kids at least.
Lilly Anders was born different, she didn't figure that out until her senior year of high school when an angel told her that she was to become a demon hunter.
Two years later she finds herself accustom to her new life. She strives to make her Van helsing ancestors proud as she becomes the best demon hunter around.
But is being a demon's boogey man really that great?
The answer is no. After being framed for murder, Lilly is now on the run with her vampire hottie, from the baddest demon of them all: Lucifer.
Will she get caught or will she escape the country in time?

We all knew it was coming. Reports were already out that New York Jets GM Mike Tannenbaum would be fired, with head coach Rex Ryan's future a little uncertain, although it was assumed he'd be safe.
Those early reports turned out to be true, as Jets owner Woody Johnson made his official announcement today:
"Our 2012 season was a disappointment to all of us. My goal every year as owner is to build a team that wins consistently. This year, we failed to achieve that goal", Johnson said via the team's website.
"This morning, I informed Mike Tannenbaum that he will not return for the 2013 season. Mike devoted 15 years of service to the Jets, and I want to thank him for his hard work and dedication. Although he helped guide us to two consecutive AFC Championship games, we are not where we want to be, and a new General Manager will be critical to getting this team back on the right track.
Starting immediately, we will conduct a search for a new General Manager. I've consulted with a number of football executives and I have also engaged the services of Korn/Ferry International, the same search firm that conducted the NFL Commissioner search in 2006. Our process with Korn/Ferry will be led by Jed Hughes, who heads their sports practice and who previously led the General Manager search for the Seattle Seahawks, among others. When we have updates on this process, we will provide them to our fans and the media.
Rex Ryan will remain the Head Coach of our football team. I believe that he has the passion, the talent, and the drive to successfully lead our team.
Like all Jets fans, I am disappointed with this year's results. However, I am confident that this change will best position our team for greater success going forward."
