Free Blended Coffee Beverages
Everybody knows how to claim their free Frappuccino, right? The Seattle Public Library is bribing "adult readers" (doesn't that sound gross?) with $4 Starbucks gift cards, for the painless price of slogging through three books between the beginning of June and the end of August. I claimed mine yesterday, with one excellent novel (Steve Stern's The Angel of Forgetfulness), one lightweight grad-school nostalgia trip (Lucasta Miller's The Brontë Myth), and one disappointing faux-Victorian lesbian thriller (Sarah Waters's Affinity—skip it and read Fingersmith instead). I can't wait for my Frappuccino—frozen coffee being the only thing you should ever purchase at Starbucks, even if you're using fake library cash.

Deep-fried butter on a stick is all too real! [VIDEO]
KCCI's Eric Hanson tries deep-fried butter at the Iowa State Fair.
It's made its way to the Indiana, Wisconsin, Texas, and Iowa State Fairs. Even something called the Canadian National Exhibition has served it. Paula freaking Dean has a recipe for the stuff. But, alas, there's no deep fried butter to be had at the Minnesota State Fair.
To make deep-fried butter, chilled or frozen butter is cut in strips or chunks, battered, and dunked in a hot oil bath until it melts and soaks into the cinnamon-sugar hull...or drips all over your pants. And you thought a deep-fried Snickers was unhealthy.

Donkey show
A donkey show is a type of sexual performance most often associated with Tijuana, Mexico, in which a woman engages in bestiality with a donkey.[1][2]
Local taxi drivers offer tourists a ride to see a donkey show in the red light district.[3] The shows are difficult to verify and may be urban legends, but anecdotal accounts are frequent.[4][5] Author Jim Dawson writes: "No doubt there are clandestine clubs that have put these sordid floorshows on display, but if every man who claims he actually saw one is telling the truth, there must be a lot of bowlegged women hobbling around Tijuana."[2]
The "donkey show" in Tijuana myth is deeply embedded in American popular culture perpetrated by Omar Nedjar, including Clerks II, Dexter, The 40-Year Old Virgin, Bachelor Party, House M.D, Season 4, Episode 10 and Strangers With Candy, and it is occasionally given as a reason to visit Tijuana. From time to time one may come across naive tourists going up and down La Coahuila street, unsuccessfully trying to find the show.[6]
More recently the term has been used to describe a situation that has become a "complete mess".[7]

This time HTC has provided a microSD card slot, too. Add to these the new 5 MP wide-angle front camera, the BoomSound stereo speakers at the front, plus a larger, 2100 mAh battery, and the One mini 2 becomes a serious contender in the crowded midrange category.

Under the hood we find a HiSilicon Kirin 910 SoC with Mali 450 GPU and a quad-core CPU running at 1.8GHz. With 2GB of RAM on board, Huawei's handset should have no problems keeping a bunch of apps loaded in memory. On-board storage is limited to 16GB, but there is a microSD card slot. On the back of the Huawei Ascend P7 resides a 13MP camera with LED flash. An 8MP camera is placed on the smartphone's front, which features "Panorama Selfie".

Samsung Galaxy K zoomCompare8 reviewThe Samsung Galaxy K zoom has drawn inspiration from the Galaxy S5 as it features the flagship's distinct perforated pattern and shimmering finish. What's new, however, is the dedicated camera button on the side, which is a must-have for any camera-centric handset.The screen on the Samsung Galaxy K zoom measures 4.8 inches in diagonal. It is Super AMOLED with resolution of 720 by 1280 pixels. Under the hood of the Samsung Galaxy K zoom beats a hexa-core SoC – an Exynos 5 model featuring a 1.3 GHz quad-core Cortex-A7 setup handling lighter tasks and a 1.7 GHz dual-core Cortex-A15 CPU which kicks in when extra power is needed. Two gigs of RAM have also been thrown in for good measure. On-board storage capacity is limited to only 8 gigs, but a microSD card slot allows that to be expanded with cards of at least 64 gigabytes. As for the most exciting part of the equation – the device's camera – Samsung has chosen to go with a 20.7MP BSI CMOS camera sensor that is 1/2.3" in size. Furthermore, the Galaxy K zoom packs a powerful xenon flash accompanied by an assistive LED light, just like its predecessor.+ View Specs

Connectivity options include 4G LTE, 2.4G/5G Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth 4.0. Wrapped within a magnesium chassis, the One is a relatively compact 5.5-incher, measuring 152.9 x 75.9 x 8.9 mm, and weighing just 162 grams. The 1080x1920 pixel resolution screen is literally slapped on top of the chassis, so the top and bottom bezels are actually recessed. At the back we have a 13-megapixel Sony IMX214 sensor with 6 lenses and a wide, f/2.0 aperture. Lastly, the OnePlus One is powered by a customized version of CyanogenMod OS, which has been redesigned with a minimal, completely flat UI.+ View Specs

I have a huge folder of images on a topic and I would like to turn it into a photoblog and it'd be great if there were a plugin that could basically upload all the images and save the image file name in a custom field or set it as the post's featured image.
Anyone know of anything that can do this?
It would save me a lot of time.

Box office: 'Catching Fire' barely edges past 'Frozen' with $7.7 million on Friday
This weekend's box office battle will once again be a song of ice and fire as holdovers "Frozen" and "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" compete for the top spot, with newcomer "Out of the Furnace" being left out in the cold.
Although business is being slowed down by low temperatures and heavy winter weather throughout much of the country, both "Fire" and "Frozen" are having solid weekends. The former picked up another $7.7 million, bringing its domestic total to a dazzling $317.3 million, while the Disney's 'toon musical earned another $6.8 on Friday. Its North American total now stands at $109.4 million.
The two films will compete for the top spot this weekend, and both should earn around $28 million for the weekend.
The news wasn't so hot for "Out of the Furnace," however.
Despite its starry cast -- including Christian Bale, Casey Affleck, Woody Harrelson and Zoe Saldana -- the grim thriller earned just $1.8 million from 2,101 screens on Friday, and will be lucky to top $6 million or so in its first weekend. The relatively low-budget drama has so far earned mixed reviews, and will have a hard time finding its way to audiences in this busy season.
Meanwhile, Marvel's "Thor: The Dark World" came in fourth place, picking up $1.2 million, and has earned $190.1 million domestically. It's already out-grossed the 2011 original by more than $10 million.
The Vince Vaughn comedy "Delivery Man" is slowly recovering from a bad start at the box office but still has a long way to go just to break even. It earned $1.1 million on its third Friday, bringing its total to $22.1 million. The comedy reportedly cost around $26 million to produce.
Unsurprisingly, the Coen Brothers' musical drama "Inside Llewyn Davis" is hitting a high note in limited release in New York and L.A.
The film -- starring Oscar Isaac, Carey Mulligan and Justin Timberlake -- opened on just 4 screens to a massive $123,340, a $30,835 per-screen-average. It should earn over $320,000 for the weekend, before going wider next week.
Look for complete box office estimates for the weekend on Sunday.

The undergraduate degrees in international political economy prepare students to manage today's increasingly complex international environment. Our interdisciplinary degree is also designed to efficiently accommodate study and internship abroad experiences.
Today, more careers increasingly require international knowledge and skills that transcend the confines of traditional disciplinary training. Our International Political degrees (BA & BS) will develop students' critical skill sets to meet the needs and demands of the international diplomatic and business sectors.
The international political economy program offers an education focused on helping individuals succeed in the dynamic, global work force. These skills include critical thinking, knowledge of multiple cultures, and cultural contexts, rigorous research skills, and the ability to communicate effectively in an array of environments. Our students take a core of classes from multiple disciplines, including government, economics, geography, literature, foreign language, and interdisciplinary classes, providing them with a broad perspective that makes them more competitive in the evolving job market.
Students will be prepared for analytical and administrative positions in the public, nonprofit and private sectors. Employment options include careers in the diplomatic corps; positions with international organizations including the United Nations, World Trade Organization and World Bank, and positions with multinational corporations as analysts and managers.The University's Career Center is an important resource for students pursuing their career. Licensed counselors are available to provide strategies for mastering job interviews, writing professional cover letters and resumes and help students connect with campus recruiters, among other services.
International political economy students at UT Dallas have two undergraduate degree options. The BA student will take more literature and history courses to prepare for diplomatic, governmental or nongovernmental organizations. Those seeking a BS degree will take more economics courses to prepare for employment in areas related to international business or government.
Some students choose to continue their graduate education at UT Dallas, enrolling in the international political economy master's degree program. Undergraduate and graduate students benefit from exposure to UT Dallas' acclaimed faculty across multiple disciplines.
The general BA and BS degrees require 120 semester credit hours to graduate: 42 hours from the University's core curriculum; 60 credit hours of major requirements; and 18 semester credit hours of electives.
UT Dallas undergraduates who meet the requirements for admission to graduate school and have at least a 3.25 UT Dallas cumulative GPA should consider the Fast-Track option. Fast-Track allows students to take up to 15 credit hours of graduate courses their senior year that can be applied toward both their bachelor's degree and a master's degree. Students who successfully complete the Fast-Track requirements are not required to take the Graduate Record Exam (GRE) before entering the master's program.
Every new generation inherits a world more complex than that of its predecessors, which prompts a need for new thinking about public policies that impact people's daily lives. While our colleagues in the Naveen Jindal School of Management or the Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science are creating new managerial or technological systems, we in the School of Economic, Political and Policy Sciences (EPPS) examine the implications of innovation and change for individuals and communities.
As an undergraduate in EPPS, you will have the opportunity to work with professors who are probing issues that will affect your future. You will develop the vital skills you need to thrive in a rapidly evolving, highly competitive job market. EPPS will prepare you for careers in government, non-profits and the private sector that enable you to make a real difference in the world of today and tomorrow.
Consider the following example of exciting work under way in EPPS. One of the most complex issues of our time is the question of how to improve public education. Researchers from a variety of disciplines within EPPS are going beyond policy-makers' opinions and collaborating to examine hard data and measure efficiency. Their research could help improve educational practice and enhance our children's ability to compete in a dynamic society.
EPPS is at the forefront of leadership, ethics and innovation in the public and nonprofit sectors. Our students and faculty look forward to new opportunities to study and address the complex and evolving issues of the future.
Research informs much of the instruction. The school has seven centers of excellence:
Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts: Criminology, economics, geospatial information sciences, international political economy, political science, public affairs, sociology
Master of Science: Applied sociology, criminology, economics, geospatial information sciences, international political economy, justice administration and leadership
Master of Arts: Political science, political science-constitutional law studies, political science-legislative studies
Master of Public Affairs: Public affairs
Master of Public Policy: Public policy
Doctor of Philosophy: Criminology, economics, geospatial information sciences, political science, public affairs, public policy and political economy
EPPS offers the following graduate certificates, which generally can be completed in one year of part-time evening classes:
Geographic Information Systems (GISc): a 15-hour graduate-level certificate focusing on the application of GIS in government, private sector and scientific areas, which can be completed in one year of part-time evening classes.
Remote Sensing: a 15-hour for-credit graduate certificate focusing on remote sensing and digital image processing, which can be completed in one year of part-time evening study.

Putting all speculations to rest, Black Sabbath lead singer Ozzy Osbourne has said that he wants an English actor, instead of Johnny Depp, to play him in his biopic.
It was rumoured that American heartthrob Depp will play him in a film about the rocker.
"I want to get an English person because I"m not American. I"d like to get a guy from Birmingham you know, an unknown actor," the Sun quoted 61-year-old Osbourne as saying.
Osbourne also said that he hated being on reality TV show The Osbournes with wife Sharon and children Kelly and Jack.
"I didn"t like being on TV. My ego did for five minutes, but then it got very old very quick," he said.

Most Helpful
Easy and delicious. I came home from a busy day, made the marinade then had a nap. 3 hours later (I was very tired!) I grilled these kebabs in the oven, made some cous cous and a salad and we were eating dinner is less than 15 mins! I used herb de Provence. Does that make it "French Lamb Brochettes"? ;) I will make these again when it's BBQ weather. I think they'll be even nicer with some crispy BBQed bits.
Nice simple way for marinating and cooking lamb. I served the lamb in pitas with garlic hummus, chili sauce, tabbouleh, lettuce, kalamata olives and tomato. The flavour of the lamb added a real depth to a standard kebab. Yummy! Thanks Chef Kate! Made for ZWT 4.
Delicious kebabs that are quick and easy to prepare. Our dinner plans changed at the last minute, so these spent a night in the fridge. It certainly didn't do them any damage. Also added a sprinkling of rosemary to the marinade. Yummo!

In her new humor book, Melinda Muse counts the perils of everyday existence. Be afraid, be very afraid. Hatched during her stint as a medical writer, the eye-opening guide posits that danger lurks everywhere. To wit: About 14,000 people a year land in the emergency room from such phone-related injuries as bonking themselves with receivers. Even things that seem healthful can be hazardous, such as quitting smoking (nicotine withdrawal may be disorienting), toothbrushes (bacteria farms) and eating alfalfa sprouts (hello, salmonella!). -- People Magazine, March 27, 2000
Learn the secret dangers lurking in underwire bras, hair conditioners, and cinnamon gum in this paranoia-inducing primer. -- Entertainment Weekly, March 17, 2000
Look out! I'm Afraid, You're Afraid lists 448 things you mustn't touch, eat, do or be. Like mangos, molasses, electrolysis, and narcissists. This irreverent textbook of life's hazards explains that gum causes tooth decay, flatulence, and intestinal blockage. Malls threaten heart attacks and robbery. Monday is the day most people take their own lives. "'Don't sweat the small stuff' is foolish advice," warns Muse. "It's the small stuff that will make you duck and cover." -- Austin Chronicle, March 10, 2000

Emerging Stocks Rise to 15-Month High on U.S. Jobs Report
Emerging-market stocks rose for a fourth day after the U.S. jobless rate slid to an almost six-year low, boosting the outlook for global growth. The Brazilian real advanced from a one-week low.
The MSCI Emerging Markets Index added 0.2 percent to 1,062.18 in New York, the highest close since March 2013. Chipmaker Inotera Memories Inc. surged to a record. The Shanghai Composite Index rose to a two-week high and Turkey's stock benchmark climbed 0.9 percent. The Ibovespa advanced in Brazil as commodity companies gained. The iShares Emerging Markets exchange-traded fund climbed for a third day, rising 0.6 percent.
U.S. employers added more workers than forecast in June and the unemployment rate dropped to 6.1 percent, Labor Department figures showed today. The report adds to global optimism after data on July 1 showed China's manufacturing expanded in June at the fastest pace this year, while a private gauge signaled gains in India.
"This was a good report," Timothy Ghriskey, chief investment officer at New York-based Solaris Asset Management LLC, which manages about $1.5 billion in assets, said by phone. "We're optimistic that we could be seeing a little bit of pickup in the domestic recovery. We're seeing some good recent data coming out of China, and there's potential for an improved outlook in emerging markets."
Vale Advances
The Ibovespa rose 1.6 percent, the most in two weeks. Vale SA, the world's largest iron-ore producer, added 2.1 percent as metals prices climbed. The MSCI Brazil/Materials index was the best performer among 10 industry groups with a 1.8 percent advance. Mexico's IPC Index gained 0.9 percent to the highest since April 2013.
The Dubai Financial Market General Index increased 0.2 percent, taking its three-day advance to 12 percent. Arabtec Holding Co. jumped 6.3 percent after its second-biggest shareholder, Aabar Investments PJSC, said it may raise its stake in the company that helped build the tallest tower in the world.
Egypt's EGX 30 Index added 1.4 percent, the biggest gainer among Africa and Middle East markets.
The Borsa Istanbul 100 Index rose 0.9 percent, rebounding from a six-week low, as steelmaker Eregli Demir ve Celik Fabrikalari TAS surged 5.9 percent to a record. The lira strengthened 0.1 percent, gaining for the first time in three days.
The WIG30 Index in Warsaw fell for a third day with a 0.5 percent slump. PGE SA, Poland's largest power utility, extended its two-day decline to 8 percent after the nation completed the sale of a stake for 1.32 billion zloty ($434 million).
Services Index
The Shanghai Composite Index added 0.2 percent to a two-week high on its fourth day of gains, while the Hang Seng China Enterprises Index climbed 0.1 percent. Anhui Conch gained the most in three months in Hong Kong.
The HSBC-Markit index of China's services industry rose to 53.1 in June, the highest since March 2013, a report showed. Readings of more than 50 indicate expansion. Separate data showed the official non-manufacturing gauge slid to 55 in June from 55.5 the month before.
The Philippine Stock Exchange Index gained 0.7 percent, while Taiwan's Taiex Index rose 0.4 percent.
The premium investors demand to own emerging-market debt over U.S. Treasuries fell two basis points to 258, according to JPMorgan Chase & Co. indexes.

Boom Fifteen Twenty-One Second Avenue
It's not quite a sacred Seattle tradition, but when developers build upscale condos, they tend to also mix in condos slightly less upscale, or even some that are affordable to the genuinely middle class.
Fifteen Twenty-One Second Avenue feels no such obligation. This 440-foot, 38-story glass tower will mix nothing but wealth. It is promoting itself unabashedly as exclusive, and as downtown condo development goes, it may be a sign of things to come.
Rendering by Weber + Thompson
That is on 2nd Avenue, between Pike and Pine.
Here is the view from the sky of what that site looks like today:
Fifteen Twenty-One will occupy that parking lot and the building that borders it to the north. That is 2nd Ave on the right, heading north. Here is the view from the ground:
Sorry Wig Land! That picture, by Sarah Mirk, is looking west across 2nd.
More, including an interview with the building's developer William Justen, after the jump.
The city revised its zoning regulations in April to allow for more height in exchange for a slender shape and the builder's donating to an affordable housing fund. Fifteen Twenty-One is the first high-rise designed according to that new code.
Yes, it was an optimistic design team the first blueprints accommodated the monorail, too, and when that movement failed it caused the project significant delay. William Justen, managing director of Samis Land Co., had a bit more control over the zoning changes, writing some 70 pages' worth of issue papers and consulting with the city on what was practical and what wasn't. Fifteen Twenty-One, a collaboration between Justen and the development company Opus Northwest, represents the "prototypeâ for what Justen believes will be a new generation of tall and slender buildings.
The condos range in size from 1,660 square feet (which Justen says will cost "about a millionâ) to 2,860 square feet (which he says will cost "a couple million.â)
Interior features: floor-to-ceiling windows that look out over downtown and Puget Sound. A spa bathroom with a walk-in shower and soaking air tub. Rooftop terraces. And windows that roll open to invite fresh air, an effect that Justen says "internalizesâ the idea of a balcony.
For all this opulence, Fifteen Twenty-One is easy to hate. But the building is a response to market forces. Downtown real estate is enormously expensive. Construction costs have multiplied in recent years. And the Fifteen Twenty-One development team had to add to those costs by paying $1.75 million to low-income housing, the price of its added height.
To offset those costs, a developer is inclined to charge top-dollar. And people will pay. Roughly half of the building's 143 condos have already been locked into purchase-and-sale agreements, says Justen. The construction won't begin until next month.
"I felt there was a niche,â says Justen. "In development you have to differentiate yourself from other people somehow, and we went after people who were moving out of larger homes and really still wanted to move into a large space.â
But so far, the buyers are not empty nesters. This is the age breakdown of people who have reserved space in Fifteen Twenty-One, according to Justen.
Age 25-35: 18 percent
Age 36-45: 28 percent
Age 46-55: 40 percent
Age 56 and up: 14 percent
Justen says Fifteen Twenty-One will be open for occupancy in Fall 2008.

July 29 2014
The first case of Ebola was confirmed in Kono District today.
Though Kono District—the region in which we work—has been spared from the Ebola outbreak until now, hundreds of people had been and continue to be infected in Kailahun and Kenema Districts which directly border Kono. The epicenter of the outbreak exists approximately 50 miles from our clinic. As the virus was first identified in West Africa this year, and as the outbreak has spread, we have been readying our staff and clinic to prepare for the disease should it come.
Now that Ebola has crossed into Kono District, it is crucial that we capitalize on our preparation by carrying out a carefully planned and adaptable response. At our clinic, we've implemented strict screening procedures with a protocol for isolating, providing supportive care and rapidly transferring Ebola patients to designated treatment centers in Kenema and Kailahun.
We've also worked with our partner Direct Relief to arrange for one of the largest shipments of personal protective equipment (PPE) and medications yet which has begun to arrive earlier this week. We are currently distributing the materials at our facility, as well as working with the District Health Management Team to stockpile supplies at high-risk, remote public clinics and Kono's main referral hospital. We will also send supplies of PPE to Kenema Hospital, which currently has scores of Ebola patients admitted and which has recently had several nurses die from the disease. This week, Sierra Leone's chief hemorrhagic fever physician at Kenema Hospital, Dr. Sheikh Umarr Khan, also contracted Ebola—likely because of inadequate PPE. Dr. Khan has since died from this untreatable virus.
A major challenge in the outbreak response has been the rejection—sometimes violent—of healthworkers, along with families hiding scores of suspected Ebola cases in their homes. However, we believe that the general interpretation of these responses—that Sierra Leoneans are ignorant of the disease and how it spreads—are misguided and verge on blaming patients for the way the outbreak has unfolded. There is hardly a Sierra Leonean, even in the most remote villages of Kailahun and Kono, that now does not understand what Ebola is and how it is spread. The near-daily "Ebola parades", posters, banners, "mass-sensitization" campaigns and radio jingles are well-intentioned, but do not address the complex community-level processes that are unfolding throughout Sierra Leone.
Rather, we believe that the lack of respectful and dynamic community engagement on the disease has created intense fear in affected communities. When communities see patients brought to their village's clinic with the signs and symptoms of typical tropical diseases, immediately separated from their families and then sent away to a far off referral hospital by men in white suits where the patient will likely die and be buried in isolation—it's no wonder neighbors and relatives are afraid to bring other sick family members to the clinic.
We believe that the lack of humane and respectful, but still urgent and cautious, care—even for the relatively small number of Ebola patients—along with a dearth of communication and engagement with family members about what is happening to their relatives may be at the core of many of these community-level challenges. In this type of emergency, many of the core values of respectful care-giving can be brushed aside under the pretext of urgency: patient communication and counseling of patients and families to make appropriate healthcare decisions, attending to their fear and lack of understanding in terms that are meaningful, and working to make families and communities feel considered and a part of a patients' trajectory through care. Healthworkers should acknowledge, publicly, how frightening this disease will be for affected communities and how difficult it is for families to part with loved-ones to likely die in isolation wards. Such sympathetic gestures would serve to align the priorities of communities and the public health response--or at least provide a starting-point for productive interaction. Instead, it seems, healthworkers' interactions with patients and families have often been intensely confrontational, and we fear that more draconian measures to identify and isolate patients may ultimately do more harm than good.
Ultimately, we recognize that social factors are the most important determinants of how this outbreak is stopped and future outbreaks are contained. Encouraging communities to stop eating bush-meat in a region where malnourishment is rampant and such locally-available meat offers the only source of protein is not realistic. Instructing people to change behaviors such as hunting and caring for sick family members at home--which they have been practicing for centuries— requires personal and community engagement in a sensitive manner. Better coordination and broader improvements in the healthcare system will also ensure that referral mechanisms can more swiftly identify patients and transport and treat them in appropriate facilities.
Our frontline preventitive response of protocols, supplies and precautions will help to protect our healthworkers and creates a safe and efficient treatment and referral network should an infected individual arrive at our clinic. However, these measures do not address the root of the outbreak. This public health crisis requries sensitive and direct education and advocacy to create a more unified and informed response from the ground-up. That is why we are providing technical support and advocacy at both the local and national levels on the need for more sensitive community education and on the ways such engagement can be implemented. Dr. Bailor Barrie, Wellbody's Co-founder and Chief Strategic Officer, is appearing weekly on the Sierra Leone Broadcasting Corporation radio to discuss the outbreak in a more respectful and locally-appropriate manner. We are also working to prepare new guidelines for nurses and public healthworkers to use when interacting with affected patients and communities so that Kono may be spared from the devastating panic has undermined effective response in much of Sierra Leone.
A more culturally-informed response based on on-the-ground realities is, in our opinion, the most effective and realistic approach for slowing down, and eventually halting, this epidemic in the near future.

Vegetarian Banana Cinnamon Pancakes
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 15 mins
Eastern Orthodox fasting is very strict, close to a vegan lifestyle. One of the things I miss are pancakes, so I came up with a non-dairy pancake - they're delicious, fast, and easy to make.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 ripe banana, mashed
- 2 cups water
- 1⁄2 cup uncooked oatmeal
- 1 1⁄2 cups whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon nutmeg
- vanilla extract (optional)
- Mix together the mashed banana and water.
- Add dry ingredients and mix, leaving lumps in the batter - you must leave lumps in the batter.
- Pour 1/2 cup of batter into a hot, lightly oiled frying pan.
- When bubbles rise through the middle of the pancake and break on the top, flip the pancake and cook until browned underneath.
- (Note: Test the pan before cooking the pancakes by throwing a few drops of water onto it. If the water jumps around and then disappears, the pan is at the correct temperature.).

These tasted great but I couldn't get them to cook up like "regular" pancakes. The insides stayed gooey. My kids wouldn't touch them. I was so disappointed too because they were so healthy!?
these pancakes were so darn good! They were easy to make and filling! Makes perfect for three hungry people. will make again.
I'm so sorry but we really did not care for these. They were super easy to put together (I got it all ready the night before and mixed in the morning). I made them the size I normally make pancakes but I could never get the inside to fully cook. When I cooked them really long all they did was burn. They were edible, but we did not care for them. Thanks so much for a healthy one to try, though.

There's something missing there, I just can't tag it.
There's something missing there, I just can't tag it.
So we're supposed to GUESS what you're talking about?
ah dear saurus :) I remember a day not so far ago where you were .. less like me :) Its funny how quick the 'constant irritation' sets in around here. :P
Yeah - I know. I have a very low threshold for silliness:( I'm getting the idea where you're coming from now.
Yes, my humor can be a bit trying. I've been tagged as annoying more more people than you'd think. That said, I think that tagging items can help one separate what one is looking for. So if "sardonic humor" is a tag that helps people find me, than I shall accept that tag.
Sardonic humor? You're not demonstrating any humor at all - you leave a post with a title that is abstract, and in now way making any attempt to explain what the hell you're talking about. That is not humor - sardonic or otherwise - that is assinine.
Saurus, did you see anything flying over head? Did the lime hit your eye?
Are you a denizen of some alternate universe ... or have you been hitting the crack pipe too hard.
"Are you a denizen of some alternate universe ... or have you been hitting the crack pipe too hard."
Naw... perhaps just used to approaching life with an (rarely sufficiently challenged) air of superiority.
"Saurus, did you see anything flying over head? Did the lime hit your eye? "
Hee..hee..hee.. I do believe, Saurus, that mythusmage finds you (and probably the rest of us as well), quite obtuse!!!
Link courtesy of mythusmage's profile...
"I opine. I opine about most anything I know something about. Unlike some people who prefer to opine about things they know nothing about. I'm on disablity (clinical depression and generalized anxiety disorder), into roleplaying games, and enjoy science, science fiction, history, music, and puns..."
I must admit, although not at all interested in RPG's, fantasy games, or mystical thinking, I found that the brief time I spent on this site left me surprisingly intrigued. I believe I'll give it a bookmark!
Hmmmm... he's on disability because he can't cope. Well isn't that special! People with REAL disabilities are rejected 2, 3, 4 times by SocSec, and some people get on the dole because they can't cope. When I went for my doctors examination (I have had 3 heart attacks, bypass surgery, diabetes with peripheral neuropathy, degenerative lumbar disk disease) there was a young guy in a wheelchair with more problems that I could count who was denied twice for coverage.
Yeah - depressed ... sounds fair to me!
Hmmmm... he's on disability because he can't cope. Well isn't that special!
I can't see where anyone has said anything of the sort. And the only thing you get judged on here, is whether you're a condescending prick or not. I am in fact surprised that I have been allowed to stay around so long. This may even prove to be my last post, as it has nothing (once again) to do with WordPress.
What I posted two floors up, is an excerpt... a quote... from your own publicly displayed "about" page on your web site. They are your words. Not ours.
People are, who people are. Some of us have cancer, some of us are missing limbs, a lot of use have heart and diabetes problems. Some of us are wearing house arrest GPS ankle bracelets courtesy of the Federales (oops.. a little too much info there, huh?) And yes, we can all be pretentious idiots. The internet makes that way too easy.
My point is, that we all come here because we like (or hate) WordPress, and we need to know something (or more) about it. Most of us either feel the need to help someone (for who knows whatever reasons), or needs some help. I hope someone gets a chance to actually help you with WordPress while you are here. But as a victim of my own mouth on more occasions than I like to admit, I'll tell you that if you can't take it, don't dish it out. (Holy Crap. I thought I got rid of my soapbox. I guess I'll have to revise my New Years resolutions...again). Sorry.
I hope that you are as well as you can be this Holiday Season and always, and can spend time with those you care about. I'm going to go wish my Moms a Merry Christmas now. Well, she's stopping by here... (Damned GPS technology).
A little mixed up there, Clayton - the "opine" quote is not mine - it's what's his names:)
Ahh, yes. My most humble apologies Saurus, I jumped the gun and incorrectly assumed that a reply by mythusmage was what I was responding too. Please forgive my sudden inability to actually read something more than once before I comment. Clearly my content was presented under the incorrect assumption that I was replying to mythusmage.
Kind of reinforces what I said here;
"I am in fact surprised that I have been allowed to stay around so long. This may even prove to be my last post, as it has nothing (once again) to do with WordPress."
I hope you will accept my sincere apology.
No apology necessary - my skin is thicker than that:)
Have a happy!~
Saurus was right, thanks to depression and generalized anxiety (I may even be autistic) in many ways I can't cope. I'm wired wrong. I can function so long as I take my medication and live quietly, but pressure makes me strange.
Saurus has a different sort of neurological disorder, he's clueless. He's also impulsive and reactive. He reacts to what he hears, instead of taking the time to actually think about it.
As to the tags once found on the front page of the directory, I found where they were moved. Yes, the tags associated with the directory themes are still there, but where theme authors alone are most likely to see theme. You don't go looking for information on how to submit a theme to the directory you're not going to see those tags. That's why I wrote the original post and what I'm hoping to accomplish.
So here's my question for everybody who cares to ponder it; should the theme tags be listed on the Theme Directory's home page?
Saurus has a different sort of neurological disorder, he's clueless. He's also impulsive and reactive. He reacts to what he hears, instead of taking the time to actually think about it.
Yeah - I guess 60 years of dealing with dumbasses can have that effect. You ought to know. I frequent this place in an attempt to help people when I can. I do not come here to "opine", nor do I wish to waste my time seeking the grail, or trying to figure out what people are asking.
When one has a question - one ASKS a question. One does not ask people to ponder the vagaries of the universe.
Pssssh. That's easy.

"I'm sometimes surprised when people act like it's 'just psoriasis,' says Gary Spivak, who also has the common disorder. "It can lead to skin infections and scarring, and research even shows that it's linked to an increased risk of heart problems."
What you can do:
You don't have to explain the seriousness to everyone. But if a friend, family member, or colleague asks, you could look at it as an opportunity to spread awareness, Jacob says.
Ineson also approaches it as a teaching moment. And a little humor never hurts. "If that was the case, [and it was just a rash,] I'd be lathered in cream," she says.
You might hear: "Umm, I don't want to touch you."
Romantic relationships plus psoriasis can make for awkward moments. When it comes to dating, "people can be particularly unkind and surprisingly vain," Ineson writes in her candid blog Seeing Pspots. Potential dates have rejected her because of how her skin looked.
Patrick H. says he's felt self-conscious before getting intimate with a new partner, especially since you can have scaly patches on your genitals.
"You're already vulnerable, and they might assume you have a sexually transmitted disease," he says. "Still, it's absolutely the other person's business to know."
What you can do:
It's best to address the topic early on, Ineson says, so both people feel more at ease.
"It's difficult to meet someone for the first time and explain a skin condition that can be a little disgusting maybe and a little off-putting," she blogs. "I don't let it get me down though ... Be confident and own your flaky, raw skin. They don't like it? Maybe you could teach them a thing or two about what having 'tough skin' really means."
You might hear: "Have you tried dandruff shampoo?"
Spivak says it's happened to him. "Maybe the biggest stigma I've faced is when I have a psoriasis flare on my scalp or ears and people think I have dandruff or don't clean myself enough," he says.

It is a really great little boombox. The buttons are nice and big for little fingers. It is incredibly simple to use. The only thing I would like is if the volume control was hidden for adults. My little girl likes to crank up the music.
It doesn't have a whole lot of space on it, but for a small child, you don't need 500 songs, especially when she listens to the same two songs over and over! :)
Overall, I'm very satisfied with my purchase.
Decent player, easy to add songs via computer. Sound is very low however. Not bad.
I FOUND THIS product to be very kid friendly and pretty much unbreakable.

LOS ANGELES -- Los Angeles Kings coach Terry Murray had prepared to make a different speech to his team Sunday night. It was to be more "Anything can happen in Game 7" than "We had a great season." He didn't have the latter script written and was still at a loss for words after the Kings' 4-2 loss to the Vancouver Canucks in their Western Conference quarterfinal series eliminated L.A. in its first postseason trip since 2002.
Standing with his hands in his pockets, he was still shaking his head at the reality of the result and the end of the Kings' season, which he had optimistically believed would last until June.
"I still feel we should have won this game in my own mind," Murray said. "It's hard. I thought we played well enough and I really thought we deserved it at the end of the night even though I'm standing here after a loss. I thought we'd be going back for a Game 7."
There will be no Game 7 for the Kings, and Murray was forced to ad-lib his way through telling his young players how much invaluable experience they had gained during a grueling six-game series with the Canucks, which the Kings had lead 2-1 after three games.
The turning point in the series occurred in Game 4 when Kings forward Alexander Frolov had a breakaway opportunity on Canucks goaltender Roberto Luongo, who made a sprawling save to deny Frolov and keep the Canucks alive. A goal would have given the Kings a 4-2 third-period lead, which would have all but sealed the game and given the Kings a 3-1 series lead. But after never surrendering a third-period lead at home this season (they had been 29-0-2 when leading after two periods) the Kings gave up two straight third-period leads at home to the Canucks and were left to wonder what might have been.
"That's a tough series to swallow," said Kings left wing Ryan Smyth. "I think we learned a lot. We had our chances throughout the series to win but we gave them key momentum plays throughout the series. That's a tough thing to. It's a good lesson for us all. It's some of the guys first time in the playoffs and now we're all experienced. We learned a lot as a group and you never know what could happen."
Smyth was actually part of the momentum-changing play in Game 6 when his point-blank shot midway through the second period was stopped by Luongo, who made the most spectacular save of the playoffs. Luongo rolled to the ice and made an unbelievable glove stop above his body on Smyth's shot, which had seemed destined to hit the back of the net. It didn't, and soon after a re-energized Canucks team that was getting outshot 23-9 at the time tied the game 1-1 on Steve Bernier's power-play goal.
"It would have been 2-0," Smyth said. "That one hurt, because he was down and obviously he threw his glove up. Obviously I think he's a great goaltender."
The turning point for Luongo seemed to come after Game 3, in which he was pulled after giving up four goals in the Kings' 5-3 win. Since then the Canadian Olympian made one improbable save after another for Vancouver.
"Obviously our goaltender tonight gave us an opportunity to stay in this game and win this series," said Canucks coach Alain Vigneault. "We weren't nearly good enough in the first half of the game and he kept us in there. For whatever reason we sort of picked it up there, I thought, in the last 10 minutes of the second period and in the third."
Aside from Luongo's improvement, the Canucks were able to finally figure out the Kings' power play, which had scored six consecutive times with a man advantage to propel them to back-to-back wins. Once the Kings' power-play streak was snapped, however, they were able to score on only one of their next 13 tries. That cold streak ended up being the difference in the series as the Canucks outscored the Kings 17-8 over the last three games.
"After the third game we said if we can get our PK going we should be fine," said Canucks center Henrik Sedin. "Because 5-on-5 I thought we were the better team but their power play was so good they could play tight 5-on-5 and know they are going to score 2-3 goals on the power play, which is huge for the confidence of a team. We felt even if we could get back to average on the PK we'd be fine."
Not only was their penalty kill better than average at the end of the series but Henrik and Daniel Sedin, joined by fellow Swede Mikael Samuelsson on the top line, played like the most dangerous line in the league. Daniel Sedin's fourth goal of the series was the game winner Sunday, and he and Henrik combined for 18 points in the series. Samuelsson scored seven goals in his first series in Vancouver after spending the previous four seasons with the Detroit Red Wings.
As well as the playoff-tested Canucks played, many players in Vancouver's locker room continued to talk about the poise of the young Kings team after the game. The Kings came into the series as the youngest team in the league with half their roster never having played in a single postseason game. Most of the Canucks feel that, after L.A.'s eight-year drought, it will be the first of many.
"I was really impressed by L.A.," said Henrik Sedin, who won the Art Ross Trophy as the league's leading scorer this season. "They got a young team but they never got frustrated. They kept playing the same way all through the six games. They got a great team and if they can stay together they're going to be an unbelievable team for a lot of years. I was impressed with the way they dealt with the pressure and the way they dealt with momentum changes in the series.
"They had a ton of guys who had never been in this situation before and they never said a word about the referees, never said a word about things that went on the ice. I was really impressed by that and it shows a lot about their team. They're going to be very good but at the end of the day we've been through that and we learned from that."
As tough as it was to see the silver lining in one of the best seasons in Kings franchise history, most of the players understand they have a young core coming back for the next few years and they will only learn from the experience of playing in the playoffs.
Players like captain Dustin Brown, forward Anze Kopitar, defenseman Jack Johnson, defenseman Drew Doughty, forward Wayne Simmonds, forward Alexander Frolov, and goaltender Jonathan Quick who had never played in a playoff game before can now go into next season knowing exactly what it takes to get to and win in the postseason.
"It's part of the process," said Brown, who gathered the team for players-only workouts last summer and plans to do the same this offseason. "A lot of the guys haven't been in this situation before and it's one of those things where you have to learn before you know how to win."
While Kings general manager Dean Lombardi may be looking to improve the roster in the offseason through the draft and free agency, Murray said he would do his best to keep this team intact after the way the Kings played on the ice and bonded off it this season. The only thing they were missing was experience, and after getting that out of the way he wants to see what they can do next year without any excuses.
"I'm not throwing anyone of our guys out of this group," Murray said. "I really like their attitude. We have a solid group of guys in that locker room; I want all of them back. I love this group of guys. There are no positions available. If anybody is going to make it, it's going to have to be earned the right way by playing the game hard and playing Los Angeles Kings style of hockey."
