Table 1 shows quartile estimates of survival for patients with Alzheimer disease according to baseline characteristics. Median survival was longer for younger persons and women but did not vary by education level. Patients age 85 years and older, with gait disturbance, wandering, and comorbid diabetes and congestive heart failure had the poorest survival (median survival times were 3.2 years, 3.5 years, 4.1 years, 3.8 years, and 3.0 years, respectively; P< 0.01 for all comparisons [log-rank test]). Other predictors of decreased survival were male sex, lower MMSE score, higher (worse) DRS score, presence of frontal release signs, presence of extrapyramidal signs, history of falls, presence of urinary incontinence, history of ischemic heart disease, and history of stroke. Duration of survival among patients with Alzheimer disease did not differ by ethnicity, presence of hypertension, presence of psychiatric symptoms, presence of behavioral disturbances, presence of depression symptoms, or duration of dementia symptoms at the time of diagnosis.
A. By Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score categories. B. By Dementia Rating Scale (DRS) categories. C. By presence or absence of gait disturbance. D. By presence or absence of wandering.

Carnival Miracle Cruise Review by sekalady: North to Alaska
Overall Member Rating
North to Alaska
Destination: Alaska
Embarkation: Seattle
Hubby and I left MCI in Kansas City very early Sep. 3 for our flight to Seattle, WA. All flights were on time, so no problem making our boarding time before 3:00 p.m. We took the Carnival Shuttle to the pier. Embarkation was a breeze. Lines were short and had lunch before 2:30.
Food was delicious. I enjoyed all the meals, especially in the dining room. We had the early dining on the lower level, and met a couple that had the same anniversary as we did! We celebrated while on board, Sept. 6.
Through Tracy Arm Fiord, we took in all the sights from the ship, 10th deck and some in our room. There was great views from our balcony all thru the trip.
We had excursions in Skagway and Juneau. In Skagway, we took the Top of the Summit. We had a terrific tour guide who made the trip interesting. We even spotted a bear! In Juneau, we took the Gold Rush Salmon bake. The salmon was delicious, and I tried clam chowder for the first time. It was a little rainy, but was only More cloudy by the afternoon. In Ketchikan, we shopped and strolled around the Pier area. It is a great place for souvenirs, and very interesting stores. We even bought salmon to have shipped home
By the time we reached Victoria, BC, we decided to stay in and get ready for debarkation. It was such a short stop to try to do anything. We did get great sunset photo ops that night.
Debarkation was easy. Since we put most of our luggage out the night before, our time to leave was after 8:00 a.m. We made it to the airport in plenty of time for our 1:30 departure for K.C. Since we live three hours from Kansas City, we didn't make it in to Coffeyville, KS until about 3:00 a.m. on Wed. Sept. 11.
All in all it was a fantastic cruise. The Miracle is a fun ship. From Cruise Director Troy to the fantastic servers in the dining, the crew made our vacation enjoyable. The only glitch that happened was bad weather one night. Besides a small vibration, the bed was rocking a lot. The waves were really rocking & rolling that night!
Thanks CC for giving me tons of information and guidance on making this a trip of a lifetime. Or until the next cruise, at least. Less

Cabin review: 8F8209 Balcony
Our TA selected 8209 for us & we really thank her for that. The view was great, nothing blocked our view. The lifeboats were to the left and right of us. Closet room was spacious for the two of us. Of course the bathroom was tiny, but efficient. I was a little curious of the amenities left for us. Mostly ice tea packets! Sample tubes of toothpaste or lotion would be more appropriate. The breathe rite and motion sickness samples might have been appropriate, but we didn't need them.Read All Balcony (8F) Reviews >>

Oceano headlines big bill Wednesday at PACA
Can anyone really warm up in Erie during winter?
Oceano will try. The Chicago deathcore band opens a big U.S. tour with Chimaira on Jan. 30 in Worcester, Mass. On Wednesday, the night before, they'll headline an all-ages show at PACA.
Oceano is no stranger to big tours; they previously ventured out with Bleeding Through and iwrestledabearonce, and have played festivals with Asking Alexandria and Avenged Sevenfold. In spring, they tour with Broken Hope.
The band is touring behind "Incisions," its third album, which is about as dark, despairing and nihilistic as you'd expect from deathcore. Lead singer Adam Warren said he poured all his angst into it after the band took a seven-month break.
"It just has a lot of personal emotion intertwined in it," Warren said. "To me, it's like almost all of those songs were about just enduring life, and a lot of struggle. After finishing that album, that was my big sigh of relief. I finally got rid of that time of my life and let go and can move on from here."
During the band's brief hiatus, Warren said he was struggling with not seeing his son as much as he wanted, financial issues and being off the road for a while.
"All that got dumped on me in a two-year span, all at once. At that point, I wasn't really involved in music, so I didn't have a release. I got a chance to throw all that out there in 'Incisions.'"
It's a violent, despairing, bleak record with songs like "Slow Murder," which could be a "Dexter" theme song the way it chronicles murderous plans.
"Around that time (of recording 'Incisions') my girlfriend and I were watching it. Some imagery and visuals were influencing some of the songs. I was just watching that show for the first time," Warren said.
Oceano released "Depths," its debut in 2009, three years after forming. It featured from-the-depths-of-hell vocals, a pummeling, sludgy attack and intense breakdowns. "Contagion" followed suit, but the more atmospheric"Incisions" surprised some fans by featuring a few songs with clean vocals.
"That was one of the things that (got) a little lukewarm response, but I was kind of bored with doing the same thing every album," Warren said. "I wanted to try something different. I might never do that again for another album."
Oceano also weathered a lineup change; guitarist Devin Shidaker exited in April and later joined Acacia Strain. With Michael Kasper replacing him, Oceano roars on. Warren said the band is six songs into its next CD.
"We're rolling pretty good right now," Warren said.

How to Make a Fabric Mosaic on Canvas
By: Tiffany Windsor
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Expand your crafty horizons and learn how to make a fabric mosaic on canvas from Tiffany Windsor. The bird depicted in this project is so cute - you'll want to include it in all of your projects. Easy fabric crafts are perfect for everyone from beginners to craft experts.
Start by painting the canvas with black acrylic paint and allow the entire surface to dry. Apply a double stick sheet to a piece of white fabric and cut both sheets so they are the same size. Pick fabric to use for the bird and apply a double-stick sheet to that as well. Cut out the image and remove the second side of the double stick sheet. Apply fabric to canvas and draw legs for the bird on the surface using erasable chalk. Begin cutting white fabric to create tiles and remove the backing from the double stick sheet. Begin laying each piece on the canvas. Add embellishments like beads for the eyes - this will help your bird stand out and come to life.
For a step-by-step video tutorial of this project, check out Fabric Bird Mosaic.

Not sure where to post
Wonder if anybody could asist me?
We are looking for a PHP/MYSQL programmer to do a project for us. Our site is www.primehealthdirect.com Problem is i'm not sure which forum to post in.
Also, finding a good programmer is harder than I expected. So if there are any takers, would appreciate a call. Or any good pointers. I did try rentacoder.com but got some really useless people contacting me. What I mean by that is that they couldn't communicate properly (ENGLISH BAD) and would also take forever to reply.
It's a serious project and I need serious programmers who can take on board what we need.
Thank You.
Re: Not sure where to post
I have moved your forum to the Employer section where you can hire anybody from the responses but we are not like RAC having anything in between the coders (who respond) and the buyer.
Yes its always difficult to find guys good at more than one thing (Communication / Development)
Re: Not sure where to post
still there are openings

Matt Martin: Confessions of a jigsaw puzzle addict
The 2,000-piece jigsaw puzzle seemed like a really good idea at the store.
Three weeks ago it presented itself as a challenging but fun solution for a few cold winter's afternoons.
Today, like every day since my wife and I slit open the box and ripped open the bag of pieces, the puzzle is a tabletop- and time-sucking beast that defies all logic and tests our humor.
We made the mistake of situating the puzzle on an immovable table in the dining room. We walk past it on the way to the kitchen. And on the way to the living room. And on our way up the stairs. Each pass begs for a stop to try to patch in another piece. An hour later our coffees are icy and we've done little but rearrange pieces on the fleet of paper plates we use to sort colors and shapes.
Maybe we should have more slowly worked our way up to it. Our 500-piece days are long behind us, and we'd worked three 1,000-piece Charles Wysocki puzzles during the holidays. Puzzle boxes, all solved, litter the basement. We're a bit demanding of our topics these days, which is how we arrived at a store shelf admiring puzzles of twice as many pieces as we'd ever attempted.
I blame my grandmother.
Gram was an incurable puzzler. Weekends, at my parents' home, she'd hover over a new puzzle on the kitchen table, first stretching the border into shape, then kneading pieces together until the pattern revealed itself. Then the race to the end was on, and we'd all join in. We privately joked that Gram so liked to finish off a puzzle that she may have palmed the final piece of each one.
Even now there's a work in progress on my parents' kitchen table that might be even more devious than our own. Its 1,000 pieces are divided into two islands, with wildly irregular borders that mock any attempt at establishing exterior edges and working in.
Still, there's an undeniable allure. Like fly fishing and reading, puzzling absorbs all of my attention and leaves me more relaxed than when I started. The problem is, like golf, it can at times draw out my frustrations, negating the entire relaxation principle.
It could be worse. England's Daily Mail reported in 2013 that a 50-year-old Englishwoman spent 17 months gluing the 24,000 pieces of one of the world's largest puzzles to her living room wall -- the only surface in her home large enough to fit the 14-foot by 5-foot puzzle.
I shared that story with Linda after I found it online. She wrote back within four minutes: "I WANT that!"

Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction
For Immediate Release: September 24, 1998
Ohio Department of Rehabilitation
and Correction
Assists Counties with Flood Relief
(Columbus) --- On behalf of the employees of the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction (DRC), Director Reginald A. Wilkinson presented Belmont and Noble County Commissioners with checks totaling $12,000. The monies were raised after Director Wilkinson declared the week of July 5, 1998, "DRC Flood Relief Week." Employees were able to "dress down" and donate $10 toward the flood relief effort. Donations were collected from all 30 prisons, 8 parole offices, and central office. The total amount collected was $20,000. Donations were made to employees who lost property in the flood totaling $8,000.

Apple's mobile patents cost Samsung
Apple, Samsung, and the white queen's gambit
Now the that the jury has given Apple almost everything it asked for in its infringement suit against Samsung, what should we expect to happen next? I think it's a given that Samsung will appeal. Given the damages awarded and the obvious determination of Apple to defend its patents, Samsung has little choice but to press forward wherever it can in court.
This doesn't necessarily mean that it's ultimate goal is to prevail through litigation, because it will constantly be running into existing and new Apple patents for so long as they remain competitors in the marketplace. Ultimately, what should make the best sense for Samsung is to negotiate the most comprehensive patent cross license with Apple that it can, and maintaining a full court press throughout the world's legal venues is the best way to ensure that it can get the best terms possible in such a license.
A cross license would make great sense for Samsung, since clearly Apple is the innovation leader in the mobile device space. And since Apple likes to price to the top of the market, that means that anyone that has a license to knock off Apple products with sufficient skill can do very well, outselling Apple in number of devices at lower price points (and margins). Normally, each company would be willing to settle with such a cross license rather than exhaust its remedies in court, because each company will usually be in a position where they need the other company's patents as much as it needs theirs, so why not get out of each others way and get on with it?
But of course Apple is different, because Apple (unlike most companies) may not be willing to license its most innovative features. Indeed, if Steve Jobs was still at the helm, I think that there would be little doubt that this would be the case. Presumably, this would be the right decision for Tim Cook as well, because it is Apple's innovation and style sense that justifies its premium prices. Plus, it has boatloads of cash in the bank, and the number of devices pouring into the marketplace would generate more than enough to recover legal costs if Apple is successful only part of the time. Throw the IOS vs. Android aspect into the mix, and it's hard to see how this won't be in the courts for quite a while to come.
Indeed, Samsung has little choice, because almost any price in legal fees would be less than having its existing products barred from the marketplace. The longer it can forestall that result, the better its bottom line, even if ultimately it has to pay up on those damages. Indeed, filing an appeal is like forcing Apple to license its patents if the result is to stay a bar on the sale of Samsung's infringing products. All in all, it's a very cynical but pragmatic game.
Lately, we've all gotten used to analogizing patents to nuclear weapons, and equating patent strategies to those that would have led to mutually assured destruction. But in the case of the current patent wars focusing on mobile devices, trench war may provide a more apt metaphor.
Why? Because most legal processes move so slowly and at such great expense. It seems as if there's always another motion and another appeal, with neither side often holding any ground gained for very long. By the time all remedies have been exhausted, the technology in question may have been leapfrogged by new innovations—and perhaps new legal actions as well. In the meantime, wave after wave of lawyers and stockholder equity are thrown into the breach, while each company otherwise goes on with business, and sales, as usual.
The key to the defendant, of course, is to do whatever it takes to prevent its products from being barred from the marketplace so that it can remain competitive. The result? The plaintiff isn't getting the benefits of its patents, at least on a current basis, and the defendant is pouring its money into legal defense rather than coming up with its own non-infringing innovations.
If by now you're scratching your head and thinking that the current patent system doesn't make a whole lot of sense, well, that would be no surprise. At least if you're still on this side of the looking glass, anyway. Doubtless you would need to live on the White Queen's side of the interface between reality and nonsense to think this many contradictory things before breakfast.

I agree with you that cross licensing is Samsung's best option. In fact I think Samsung is actually a bit better off now than before the trial. While they lost $1B in the award, they gained something worth more in my opinion. The jury found that Apple had no proof that Samsung was acting in bad faith in regards to its FRAND patent pool. Apple still has to license those sooner of later. While IANAL, I suspect that at some point of stalling, Apple will lose is FRAND rights. When that happens, Apple will be dead in the water. While Samsung copied Apple, they were software patents and designs and other intangibles. They are easy to innovate around, turn over with prior art, or otherwise invalidate. There is no getting around Samsung's cell technology as you simply can't make a standards compliant phone with it. Then there are the FABs that Samsung owns. While Apple could pull most of its business to other parties, will they have the same quality as Samsung? It also leaves room for Samsung to make more Android gear. Apple does not really want to be in a position where the best hardware is going to Android devices instead of Apple. Anyway, just some of my thoughts on the matter.
Interesting blog. I'm wondering what innovations Apple is guilty of, though. When I look at their mobile products, I see nice packaging and lots of sparkle. They do a nice job assembling a quality product from off-the-shelf components. Their software is interesting and user friendly although it's not particularly stable. I know a couple of people who use their iPhones a lot and they wind up using the reset feature a couple of times a month. I just don't see anything new or innovative. I've asked around and the general consensus is that there are 3 features that Apple fans consider to be innovative. The capacitive touch screen, gesture interface and app support. The problem I have with giving Apple credit for those is that there is prior art. Capacitive touch screens have been around since the '80s, the gesture interface was already used on the Mitsubishi Diamond Touch product and app support was pretty much copied from IBM's Simon smartphone. So where's the innovation?
Another thing I would like to mention is that if this jury's verdict stands prior art doesn't mean anything in an IP litigation case anymore. The jurors admitted that they completely skipped the prior art and decided to assume that Apple's patents were valid. If we're going to take that stance, what's the point in even bringing these cases to trial?

Yeah, it sure does seem like it's indeed a POS sound system. Nice laptop
other than this.
I spent the entire morning trying various things. Recompiled the kernel
(several times) to use modules instead of built-in, and was able to use
different "model" parameters passed to the module (via modprobe). This
got me various versions of sliders in alsamixer, including one model that
actually had a "speaker" control, but that speaker slider had no effect on
anything. Testing gave poor results, such as no sound whatsoever when
viewing online videos (from CNN website). Also get no sound at all when
playing an audio CD. Eventually I've gone back to having ALSA built-in to
the kernel, as that method at least gives me sound in the above mentioned
videos, but still no CD audio.
I'm gonna leave it alone for now. Not a huge problem as I don't really
use this laptop for multimedia stuff anyway. Sure wish they'd put a
better sound system in it, but oh well.
Thanks for the input.

"How lucky am I to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard."
- From the musical "Annie"
I WAS 12 when my mother trapped a local merchant in a fiendishly clever extortion plot.
"How much do you think I spend here each week?" my mother asked Sam Zepper, proprietor of the Girard beef market.
"I don't know exactly, Mrs. Mitchell. Why do you ask?"
"Because my son needs a job."
I started work that day and was never out of work for more than a week or two until January 1973 when the Philadelphia Bulletin hired me as a nightside rewrite man for $5 an hour.

15th birthday party ends in gunfire; 1 dead
HAMILTON TOWNSHIP, N.J. -- A 15-year-old girl's birthday party in New Jersey ended in gunfire Friday night, leaving one teenager dead and four others hurt, authorities said.
It's not yet clear what prompted the shooting at the party in Hamilton Township or whether the shooter was a partygoer or an uninvited guest.
Mercer County First Assistant Prosecutor Angelo Onofri said 17-year-old Shakir Williams, of Trenton, was shot multiple times, apparently in the living room, and was pronounced dead at the scene a short time later.
Authorities were still working to determine whether Williams was the intended target of the shooter.
Onofri said a 17-year-old boy remained hospitalized in critical but stable condition after undergoing surgery. Two other teens, ages 17 and 18, were shot in the leg, while a fourth victim was hit in the calf. They were treated at a hospital and released.
U.K. agency: 787 fire not caused by batteries
LONDON -- A fire on an empty Boeing 787 plane at London's Heathrow Airport didn't appear to be caused by faulty aircraft batteries, a British investigative agency said Saturday.
Investors in Boeing, which calls its newest plane a Dreamliner, had feared that Friday's blaze meant that a battery overheating problem that grounded the whole fleet of such planes in January had not been fixed.
News of the fire on the Ethiopian Airlines plane sent Boeing shares down 4.7 percent on Friday.
But Britain's Air Accidents Investigation Branch said there was "no evidence of a direct causal relationship" between the Dreamliner's batteries and the fire.
Famously filthy river hosts community swim
BOSTON -- The Charles River may be famous for its filth, but it's clean enough now for its first public swim since the 1950s.
The Boston Globe reported dozens jumped into the river Saturday.
Over the past eight years, the river has hosted a mile-long race for elite swimmers. But Saturday's event was the first time in decades officials allowed a community swim.
The water quality meets standards for swimming most days, a big improvement since the EPA gave it a grade of D in 1995. But the bottom remains polluted, so the swimmers had to avoid it.

Intrexon will pay Halozyme $9 million up front to leverage Halozyme's enzyme technology in the development of a subcutaneous injectable formulation of Intrexon's drug candidate for indications resulting from A1AT deficiency. Potential future milestone payments could reach $54 million, and Intrexon could make up to 11% in royalties.
Under the worldwide, exclusive license, Halozyme's rHuPH20 (recombinant human hyaluronidase) will be coupled with Intrexon's recombinant human alpha 1-antitrypsin (rHuA1AT). Intrexon will fund all development and commercialization expenses for the program, which is currently in the scale-up phase of process development.
The deal with Intrexon comes less than a month after Halozyme inked a potentially $83 million deal with ViroPharma for the use of rHuPH20 in the development of a subcutaneous formulation of the latter's hereditary angioedema drug, Cinryze™.
Alpha 1-antitrypsin (A1AT) is a protease inhibitor made in the liver that works to protect the lungs and the liver. Deficient production of this protein is caused by a genetic defect and it can lead to chronic lung diseases such as emphysema as well as liver disease. Treatment involves replacement of the missing A1AT protein administered intravenously once weekly for most patients and it is considered lifelong therapy.
Several intravenous A1AT products have received FDA approval in the U.S. Currently the A1AT protein is gathered and processed from plasma collected from healthy human donors. Intrexon is using its synthetic DNA platform for high-level expression of recombinant A1AT. rHuA1AT provides a protective effect from inflammatory cell proteases, especially neutrophil elastase, the companies report.
"The combination of Intrexon's synthetic DNA platform for high-level A1AT production with Halozyme's subcutaneous enzyme technology may enable the first recombinant human A1AT replacement therapy with a more patient-friendly administration profile," states Gregory I. Frost, Ph.D., Halozyme's president and CEO.
Halozyme's rHuPH20 enzyme facilitates the absorption and dispersion of drugs or fluids that are injected under the skin. When injected under the skin rHuPH20 transiently generates channels in tissues underlying the outer layers of the skin to increase the absorption and spread of injected drugs.
When combined with rHuPH20, molecules as large as 200 nanometers may pass freely through the extracellular matrix, which recovers its normal density within approximately 24 hours, leading to a drug delivery platform that does not permanently alter the architecture of the skin, according to the companies.
rHuOH20 was developed on Halozyme's Enhanze™ technology, the drug delivery platform designed to increase the absorption and dispersion of biologics. Besides Intrexon and ViroPharma, the company has partnerships with Roche and Baxter to apply Enhanze to therapeutic biologics including Herceptin, MabThera, and immunoglobulin.

Parallel evolution
An evolutionary process by which two or more separate species in the same environment develop similar adaptation or characteristic for survival.
Parallel evolution is similar to convergent evolution in a way that two unrelated species evolved similar traits. However, in parallel evolution, the two species evolved same traits while living in the same type of environment whereas in convergent evolution the two species evolved same traits in separate types of environment.
Example of parallel evolution: North American cactus and the African euphorbia that developed similar adaptation, which is their thick stems and sharp quills to survive the hot, arid climates. These two plant species are of different plant families but live in the same type of environment.
Compare: convergent evolution, divergent evolution

Best Buy Canada has recently listed another tablet, though this one is not yet available. Nonetheless, it is an interesting product listing because it does offer a potential release date for the Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet. And on top of that, the tablet is priced at $499.99 and currently available for pre-order. Getting back to that release date — the listing notes that "this product is scheduled to arrive in our warehouse on 09/26/2012." Simply put, those who move forward with a pre-order can expect delivery towards the end of the month. Otherwise, the Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet is bringing features to include a 10.1-inch (1280 x 720) display, quad-core 1.4GHz processor, 2GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage, a microSD card slot, Wi-Fi, 1.9 megapixel front-facing camera, a 5 megapixel rear-facing camera, Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and of course — the S Pen and its compatibility with apps to include S Note and Adobe Photoshop Touch.

The recent drop in gasoline and heating fuel prices is a relief for Americans. And while this respite is welcome, it does not mean our nation's energy problems are solved.
We must learn from summer's painful lessons. The worldwide economic slowdown might have brought prices down from their lofty highs, but we know they can rise as quickly - if not more - than they fall. Already some oil-producing countries are talking about cutting production in an effort to stop the slide in prices.
Our nation needs a sensible, long-term energy strategy that combines conservation with developing domestic sources of energy including oil, natural gas, coal, nuclear power and alternative energy. No one choice is the complete solution; it's going to require a variety of approaches.
Clearly, the United States will continue to need vast amounts of petroleum for the foreseeable future. It's just not possible to switch sources of fuel dramatically, barring some catastrophe that would wreck our economy and our way of life.
It might not be possible to drill our way out of the problem of oil imports as critics contend, but we can - and must - move to increase domestic production to lessen our needs - just as we are doing with natural gas, particularly with the Marcellus Shale layer in Pennsylvania and other nearby states.
We need to look for better ways to use our abundant supplies of coal without causing unnecessary harm to the environment. We are going to have to get over our disdain of nuclear energy to help provide power for our increasingly electric-hungry nation. Certainly, there are safety concerns and disposal dilemmas that must be addressed, but we cannot afford to simply turn our back on these options.
And speaking of alternatives, we must continue to work on other sources of power from wind to solar and from geothermal to renewable. We are not where we want to be with all of these technologies, but progress has been made. And given the size and differing climate of our country, some may be practical in only specific regions.
What we have to do is find the right balance of encouraging development and conservation without creating mandates that have the unintended consequence of forcing other prices up.
While the free market has gotten a bad rap given the recent economic turmoil, it should be a factor in finding the right policy because of its focus on the balance of cost versus benefit.
Finding ways of meeting our energy needs will be an ongoing challenge and will require long-range vision.
There are no quick and easy answers. And while the recent price declines certainly are a relief for our wallets, it will take clear thinking and leadership to keep our needs and costs under control in the decades ahead.

Sweet Potatoes with Nooch & Vegan Cheese!
Hey guys! I was still feeling sick yesterday, so instead of overexerting myself in the kitchen (as I tend to do hehe), I decided I'd just make something simple for dinner since I didn't have much of an appetite anyway. It was my first time trying three new vegan ingredients! Nutritional yeast, potato starch and vegan cheese!
I marinated about six sweet potatoes, chopped like French fries, in one tablespoon olive oil, salt, pepper and a spray of cooking spray. I then cooked them at 450 degrees until they were somewhat crispy, and flipped half way through.
What is nutritional yeast (or "nooch" as it is lovingly called in the vegan blog community)? It is a deactivated yeast that comes in flakes that look like fish food (as my friend Michelle says) in both color and consistency. It has a nutty, almost cheese-like taste, that makes it perfect as a topping for veggies and pizza. One of the perks? "It is a source of protein and vitamins, especially the B-complex vitamins and is a complete protein. It is also naturally low in fat and sodium. Some brands of nutritional yeast, though not all, are fortified with vitamin B12. The vitamin B12 is produced separately from bacteria and then added to the yeast" (from Wikipedia here). You can find it in the bulk bins or pre-packaged at Whole Foods. Note: Nooch has about 50 calories per two tablespoons. I used only one tablespoon over my serving.
Potato starch isn't the healthiest thing to add to a dish, but I read in Vegetarian Times that if you add just a little to your cut-up sweet potatoes before baking they will come out crispier. I didn't notice much of a difference, but maybe it's because I only used a few teaspoons?
I also topped off my cooked sweet potato fries with some grated mozzarella flavor "soy vegan block" from Galaxy Nutritional Foods. I don't like the smell of this faux cheese and the taste alone is err…moldy-ish… But when it's grated on top of sweet potatoes with nooch, you can't tell! lol So you can just enjoy the texture instead. Per 1 oz: 45 calories, 2g fat, 150mg sodium, 0g fiber, 2g protein
The dish was amazing and tasted a bit like cheese fries! Mmm next time I'll add some vegan chili!
Ever used nooch? Vegan soy block "cheese"? Potato starch? What's your favorite way to make sweet potatoes?

Wednesday, February 13, 2013
I was born here in this great old town back in the early 1950's in the old Berkeley County Hospital.
My memory of Moncks Corner continued until 1971 when I left home for college, not returning until 2004 with the exceptions of occasional visits home.
To me, what made this old town so wonderful were the people, many of whom I am privileged to be kin to. If my family and I weren't kin to them then they were wonderful and dear friends.
My father was Arthur McCants, who ran a small "mom and pop" grocery story in an old clap-board building. It was located between the old dime store owned and operated by Harold Harvey and his dear wife Francis, and Mr. Ed Law's appliance store. Where that old building was is nothing but a wooden fence now.
The old dime store is now the Citi Trends store. Though Harold was a good bit older than me he was my first cousin. He is gone now, I'm sad to say, but Francis is still puttering around in her home in Pinopolis.
Mr. Law long ago retired and the old appliance store was just recently cleared out and some other business is being put in there. He actually owned the building my Dad's store was in. If you are a fan of the old television show, "The Waltons," Ike Godsey's store was in many ways like my Dad's store.
To this day I can, in my mind, put all the products right where Dad always had them … the Robin Hood Flour, Tide, various kinds of soup, Sunbeam Honey Buns and everything else. Too bad they don't make those honey buns like they use to. They actually had honey all over it and in the middle they had a sugary, buttery substance that was a pure delight to the taste buds. Boy! I can taste them now!
If you wanted to learn the latest news in town all you had to do is just go to my Dad's store at noon, get yourself a Coke or Pepsi, and one of them good, lip-smacking honey buns, and you would hear everything you wanted to know – some things you didn't – because everybody who was anybody was there.
There was Mr. Powell, the postmaster, Mr. Pat DeHay, who I was privileged to call Mr. Pat, two World War I Veterans, and a bunch of others. Mr. Pat was a wonderful guy and a dear friend, and if there was a fish in the lake, he'd catch it. He loved to fish! Every time he'd come into the old store, I'd ask him, "Mr. Pat, How big a fish did you catch this week?"
He'd laugh and say, "Well, they were about this size," and with the index finger on left hand he'd cross his hand showing the size of the fish.
Mr. Powell and my Dad were widely known for their energetic yet friendly discussions on various subjects from politics to gardening. But they were the best of friends. With each discussion they would end up laughing. That is always a sign of good friendship.
Mr. Cohen of Barron's Department store on Main Street was a witness to many of these energetic discussions and remembers the laughter that would follow.
Do you have any memories of the things I've shared, or of your own childhood in Moncks Corner? I would be privileged if you would share them with me. Contact me at email@example.com.

Corbin Jackson's culinary talents earned him an opportunity most 9-year-olds don't have — visiting the White House and meeting the president and first lady.
Corbin Jackson's 'Bring it on Brussels Sprout Wrap' recipe
Makes 10 servings
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1/2 tablespoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons coconut oil
10 oz. Brussels sprouts, trimmed and finely chopped
1 15 oz. can of organic pinto beans, rinsed and drained
2 small avocados, pitted
Juice from 2 limes
2 tablespoons chia seeds
10 whole wheat tortillas
Stir together the chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt and pepper.
In a large sauté pan over moderate heat, warm the coconut oil.
Add the Brussels sprouts and the seasoning mixture and cook until the Brussels sprouts soften and wilt slightly, about 5 minutes.
Add the beans, lower the heat to low and cook, stirring often, until the beans are heated through, about 3 minutes.
In a small bowl, use a fork to mash the avocados and lime juice into a creamy paste.
Add the chia seeds and stir to combine.
Spread a thin layer of the avocado mixture on each tortilla then top with the Brussels sprout–bean mixture.
Roll up the tortillas, tucking the sides in as you roll.

Corbin was the South Carolina winner of First Lady Michelle Obama's Healthy Lunchtime Challenge, which encouraged parents to work with their children, ages 8 to 12, to create a healthy lunch recipe. Corbin's "Bring it on Brussels Sprout Wrap" embraced a food most kids his age aren't crazy about.
When asked if he was scared of going to the White House for the competition winners' lunch July 9, Corbin replied with the fearlessness you might expect from someone who just finished third grade.
"No," he said.
Corbin said he and his mom, Kerrie Poulin, weren't worried about the security at the White House, but they did say it was thorough.
"Our bus alone took a good 20 minutes to get through the initial gate. The bus had to stop and be fully searched," said Poulin.
While Secret Service agents performed security scans, they kept the families entertained by asking them bits of presidential trivia, Corbin said.
Corbin, a rising fourth-grader at Pinckney Elementary School, was one of 54 winners — one from each state and territory — who had lunch with the first lady and took a tour of the White House garden.
At the lunch, a surprise guest — President Barack Obama — made an appearance, meeting the young chefs and their families while supporting his wife's healthy-eating initiative.
"President Obama mentioned to me that he loves Charleston, and that we have fantastic food," said Poulin.
Upon meeting Michelle Obama, Corbin asked if she ever drank any soda or ate any candy.
"She said, 'I usually have like half a can of soda and sneak a little Snickers bar on the plane sometimes,'" he said.
Corbin and his mother enjoyed the sampling of dishes that were served at lunch, saying they were healthy and light. They both said their favorite dish was a pizza with cauliflower crust. The recipe came from 10-year-old Olivia Neely of Kansas.
Corbin said he wasn't surprised at how big the White House was, but was surprised by the collection of presidential portraits.
"I didn't know all of the presidents had big pictures hung on the walls."
Along with getting a palm tree with a monkey hanging on it in balloon-animal form, Corbin and Poulin received their own Healthy Lunch- time cookbook, filled with the recipes of each of the 54 winners. The cookbook is available for download at letsmove.gov.
The Healthy Lunchtime cookbook will go to good use at his Mount Pleasant home, according to Corbin.
"I plan to try all of the winning recipes with my mom."
Reach Zach Fox at firstname.lastname@example.com
Corbin Jackson, 9, signs the page with his recipe in a copy of the Healthy Lunchtime cookbook. The Mount Pleasant youth is the South Carolina winner of First Lady Michelle Obama's Healthy Lunchtime Challenge, a cooking competition targeted toward 8- to 12-year-olds.×

With a combined fortune rumored to be around $50 million, the couple is "worth more than you think," a longtime friend tells PEOPLE in this week's issue.
Banderas "is a shrewd businessman; he has a lot of investments and business interests," the friend adds. "Melanie's no slouch either; they don't spend money they don't have. They are very proud of that."
Both stars continue to act: Griffith just guest-starred on CBS's Hawaii Five-O and Banderas made millions voicing Puss in Boots for the Shrek franchise. Banderas's investments, according to the friend, include commercial real estate in Los Angeles and Miami and overseas – and several restaurants around the world.
"He doesn't brag about it, but if you ask him, he loves to talk business," the friend says. "He loves to talk about what makes money and what doesn't. He's very, very smart and savvy with his money."
Griffith, who asked for spousal support in her divorce filing, and Banderas also have homes in L.A., New York City, Aspen and Spain.
"Obviously, money never seemed to be an issue with them," the friend says. "I don't think you'll find out that they're divorcing over money."

Most of us are big fans of Game of Thrones here at LockerGnome. We're also fans of science. So when the PBS-produced YouTube series It's Okay To Be Smart decided to explain some of the anomalies of the Game of Thrones universe with science, well, we'll just say that we're now also fans of It's Okay To Be Smart.
I'm also a fan of the decision to call the unnamed Game of Thrones world "Hodor" for the purpose of this video.
And to think there are people who actually want to defund PBS! Daenerys Targaryen has one word for those people.

I definitely feel amazing overall and weigh less than I have since before high school. Also, I had no idea how sore a real sprint would leave me. Four days of ache!
