Fried Stuffed Squash Blossoms
Total Time
Prep 30 mins
Cook 10 mins
There was a request for this and I thought this recipe sounded wonderful. Prep time includes chilling time.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 16 large squash blossoms
- 1⁄4 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 clove garlic, minced or pressed
- 1 tablespoon pine nuts
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh basil
- salt
- pepper
- 2⁄3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup cold water
- safflower oil or other high-quality vegetable oil
- parmesan cheese
- Quickly rinse the squash blossoms under running cold water and gently pat dry.
- Cut off and discard stems.
- Set aside.
- In a bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, garlic, pine nuts, basil and salt and pepper to taste.
- Open up the blossoms and spoon about 1 1/2 teaspoons of filling into the center of each; avoid overfilling.
- Twist the top of each blossom together to close.
- Place on a baking sheet and refrigerate for about 15 minutes.
- Combine the flour and water in a shallow bowl and beat with whisk until smooth and creamy.
- Let stand about 15 minutes.
- Pour the oil into a deep skillet or saucepan to a depth of about 3/4 inch.
- Heat over high heat until a small cube of bread dropped into the oil turns golden brown within seconds.
- Briefly dip each stuffed blossom into the batter, then carefully slip into the hot oil.
- Cook until golden brown on one side; turn and continue to cook until golden on all sides; about 3 minutes total cooking time.
- Add as many blossoms at a time that will fit comfortably in the pan.
- Transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain briefly.
- Sprinkle with salt and Parmesan cheese to taste and serve immediately.

Yummmm :) This is the first year I have planted pumpkins... and I have lots of blossoms. My gardener kept telling me how delicious they are, and that I should make quesadillas out of them, so I came here looking for a recipe. I did not find the quesadilla recipe (and almost didn't find this one because Blossom is mispelled in the title and didn't come up on my initial search lol). These are great!!! We really, really enjoyed these and they were absolutely delicious. Made exactly to your directions, but the stuffing at 1 to 1 1/2 tsp. per blossom only stuffed 9 or 10. Next time I will double the stuffing for 16, and it will be perfect. Thanks so very much for this incredible recipe! Dianne
Just Outrageously Delish! I made this for my first time. Just to good very easy and tasty. I can`t believe I never used the blossums after having a garden for 20 years. Shame on me. The recipe calls for 16 blossums I found the filling enough for 6. Cut the flour and water in 1/2. And added diced sundried marinated tomatoes. Oh my mouth still tastes so good! Can`t wait to go pick more! Plus fresh basil from the garden do I need to say more! Yes I do, "Thanks for posting a great recipe"!!!!!!
We just tried this one and did not like it at all. We bought squash blossoms yesterday at a farm market and they looked fresh. When we tried to stuff them they we very difficult to open. So... I went to the garden and picked a few fresh blossoms to see if there was any difference. Yup... they were easy to stuff from the garden. We batter fried them and they were pretty bland, hence my two star rating. They were not worth the work. I used Ricotta and perhaps goat cheese might have been a better choice!

Fayette County High School inducts latest class into school's Hall of Fame
The cafeteria at Fayette County High School was the setting March 15 for six alumni to be honored at the school's Distinguished Alumni and Sports Hall of Fame dinner and induction ceremony.
The honorees inducted as distinguished alumni included Fayette County historian Carolyn Cary, Dr. Harriet Smith and contractor Brent Scarbrough. Inducted into the FCHS Sports Hall of Fame were Realtor and former teacher Karen Sagon, Fayetteville Police officer and community baseball coach Robert Mask and materials operations manager Mike Mask.
Having spent the first part of her life in Ohio, Cary ventured south to Fayetteville and in 1981 was named Fayette County's official historian. The recipient of numerous awards and organizational memberships, Cary was made an honorary member of the Creek Indian Nation and Clan McIntosh for her historical work on their behalf. Cary co-founded the Fayette County Chamber of Commerce in 1967 and co-founded the Fayette County Historical Society in 1971.
Cary at the ceremony received an honorary diploma from Fayette County High School Principal Dan Lane. The Fayette County historian also received a second recognition. She was made a FCHS Distinguished Alumni in a presentation by C.J. Mowell and her coworker John Munford.
"My friends told me they were glad I was getting a diploma," Cary said with the chuckle, commenting that she received her original high school diploma in Ohio. Now a long time resident of Fayette County, Cary questioned humorously if her original diploma "wasn't good anymore" south of the Mason-Dixon Line.
Board certified in Ob/Gyn and Gynecologic Oncology, Smith is the recipient of a long list of affiliations, awards and recognitions.
Smith was presented the FCHS Distinguished Alumni award by Terry Wilson.
"Thank you from the bottom of my heart," Smith said, thanking the teachers at FCHS for helping her acquire her skills."You loved me a lot and I'm very grateful."
The third FCHS Distinguished Alumni award of the evening went to Scarbrough. The presentation was made by his sisters, Dawn and Wendy Scarbrough.
Scarbrough cut his teeth in business sweeping floors at his father's pharmacy in Fayetteville. He later learned to operate heavy equipment and, while in college, he founded the Erosion Control Company. Today he is the owner of Brent Scarbrough and Company, Inc.
"A lot of people in this room influenced me," Scarbrough said after the presentation. "If you do something special you don't need an award for it. You do what you're supposed to do, and do the right thing."
Sagon became a member of the FCHS Sports Hall of Fame after being introduced by her long time friend and teacher Janis Green.
While at FCHS, Sagon played softball, basketball and tennis. A Realtor today, Sagon had numerous coaching responsibilities at Fayette County High School and Whitewater High School.
"I'm so humbled to be part of this group tonight," Sagon said, noting that what is important in life is, "what we do with our gifts and how we move through life."
Brothers Robert and Mike Mask also joined the FCHS Sports Hall of Fame. Both were presented by their former coach, Joe Brasfield.
An officer with the Fayetteville Police Dept., Robert entered law enforcement in 1994 and began coaching community baseball in 2009. Robert has received a number of awards related to his work in law enforcement.
"I'm very honored to receive this, and to be inducted into the FCHS Sports Hall of Fame," Robert said. He recalled the family members and coaches that impacted and promoted his love of baseball. "In life we (receive) and we have to give back."
Mike Mask during his time at FCHS was a hard-hitting baseball player who received a number of recognitions. Among those was the Dugout Club Player of the Week and the Dugout Club South All-Star team. Mike attended Southern Union State Community College on a baseball scholarship.
Similarly, Mike in what he called "short and sweet" comments, thanked his parents, brother and coaches for supporting and nourishing his love of baseball.

It's been looking like the Minnesota Vikings would activate tailback Adrian Peterson from the physically unable to perform (PUP) list in the coming days, and it appears the team has reached a tentative schedule for doing so.
According to ESPN's Josina Anderson, the Vikings are targeting their Tuesday practice at Minnesota State University, Mankato, for Peterson's return to football activity. He could be added to the roster as early as Sunday.
That schedule could have him ready for the Vikings' third preseason game, Aug. 24 at the Metrodome against the San Diego Chargers. And if all goes well in that game, Peterson would be on track to participate in the Vikings' season opener two weeks later against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Peterson tore the ACL and MCL in his left knee on Dec. 24, 2011, and had surgery Dec. 30. By my math, Tuesday would be 10 days short of the eight-month anniversary of the injury.
We'll pass along any updates on Sunday.

I'm actually more intrigued by Pacquiao vs Mayweather post Marquez KO than pre-KO. Overall I thought Pacquiao, after his fourth try at least, did a better job at fighting Marquez than Mayweather did. Then did the KO happened. But I don't expect Mayweather to KO Pac. He'll definitely fight a safer fight than Marquez.

No version of Pacquiao could have ever beaten this version of Mayweather. The talent gap is so apparent. Prime blood doped Manny could maybe take 3-4 rounds from THIS version of Mayweather. He would eat right hand after right hand, Pac is so ugly to begin with he might come out of the fight prettier. Manny uses the same combination over and over and dives in with his hands down. Take away Manny's raw speed and you have a mediocre gatekeeper at best. Manny's physical attributes are failing, he is as jacked up on EPO as ever. The wars he has been in, his style of fighting...Manny is 100% finished. He is going the Barrera/Morales route or even worse the RJJ route. He needs to hang them up immediately or he will **** his legacy over badly.

I think Floyd could have dropped Pacquiao like Marquez did in the third round, Floyd loves throwing that looping right hand once and a while. He landed it on Cotto a few times he likes getting it through the side of your gloves when you cover up so he lands on the base of your jaw near your ear.
I don't know about knocked him out though, I think Floyd would have been to afraid to trade with Pacman, Marquez knocked Pac out because he isn't scared to trade and take a chance. Floyd would most likely pot shot Pac he would fight a similar fight that he did against Oscar De La Hoya.

I highly doubt it.
He would have given him the schooling of his lifetime however, 12-0 on all cards. So a frustrated Pacquiao desparately looking for a KO and getting wild may have been susceptible to getting dropped in the later rounds.

Marquez takes more risks than Floyd. So its less likely but it sure helps to have a video now of how you may have a chance of doing it.
With that KO punch, if Manny faked throwing his jab and came in with his left, it could have been Marquez KOed. It was risky business and Marquez was willing to take the risk so that he had the chance for that big reward. Floyd is health first!

Mannys style is perfect for Floyd , no doubt Floyd would T off him all night and Manny would be stopped around 10 , maybe not as dramatic but he would stop him , be Hatton all over again with Manny jumping in like he always does .

Floyd would've ended it the way he ended it against Ricky Hatton, but in the 12th round to punctuate an epic performance. He wouldn't have made Pac hit a corner post, but it would've ended with the ref's full count or possibly a corner rescue towel.
Floyd would've called it a day and retired after that.

Look at how Pacquiao times his left hand, he drops it the exact moment he is about to get hit. Such timing such brilliance!
Floyd would have murdered Pacquiao

Barring discipline hurts children
My eighth grade schoolteacher, standing before the class, said: "If a schoolteacher teaches for 20 years they go crazy." I would think it would take a lot less time now since the government has been given control of our children.
What the government and Hollywood can't mess up hasn't been invented yet.
Proverbs 13:24 New International Version (NIV) instructs us: "Whoever spares the rod hates their children, but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline them."
The reason the leftists in government don't want you to discipline your kids is because they hate kids and want them to grow up to be outlaws. Nations topple more easily in that condition.
Now, most people will just brush Proverbs 13:24 aside, but only a fool would not act upon God's directives.

If you're comfortable with sharing, what are your kids' first and middle names? Are they named after anyone or anything? I'm just curious because I've always been interested in names.
DD is named Alex Marie. Alex-because we like unisex names for girls. Second because we have 4 letter names in our family. Marie-is her grandmother's middle name (my mother). We felt she deserved this honor.
Team Pink or Team Blue
Which one dear baby are you?� Due Aug 2011
DD is Breuckelen Viviana Houstoun. Breuckelen is because we love where we live (Brooklyn) and it is where we work and where we met and so we named her after our home. The spelling is the original dutch spelling from when Brooklyn was first created as a city -- DH is a history buff. Viviana is for DH grandmother Vivian who passed away about 10 years ago and with Houstoun, the H was for my grandfather Harold who passed away 3 1/2 years ago.
Mom to Breuckelen� 6/22/08 and Hudson 9/18/09
**DS** allergic to dairy, wheat, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, sesame seeds and soy **
Lauren Ava
Both my DH and I love the names and thought it made a pretty name for a pretty little girl!
°º¤ø,ø¤º°`°º¤ø, Courtney ,ø¤º°`°º¤ø,ø¤º°
Military Wife to Jason (6/24/04)
Mommy to Lauren (6/4/08)
My son is Jacob Julien. First off, we wanted a totally bilingual name (French/English) since we live in Ottawa and it's bilingual and he'll be going to a French school and we live in French but the city is more English... Hope that makes sense!
Jacob, we just loved the name and it was the only one we agreed on. Our second choice was Benjamin. Julien is a family name in my BF family.
Mommy to Jacob 06/2008 and�Samuel 07/2010.
Luke Richard
Luke, is from the bible... We were at church one night right befoe we found out the sex of the baby and the gospel reading was from "Luke" we both looked at each other and knew that was our boys name!
Richard is my DHs name and his dad's name
BF, CD, NFP, Non Circ-ing, BLW, mom to 3 crazy boys! Luke 6-17-08, Landon 10-9-09
and Joshua 4-17-12
Jacen Steven.
Jacen is a star wars name (in the books) and my husband is obviously a star wars fan. I liked it because i like the name Jace for short. Steven is my husbands name.
Dylan Michael--- We both loved Dylan and Michael is his uncle's first name and the funny thing is he acts like his uncle Mikey....
Landon Patrick--Dh picked out Landon and Patrick is the American version of Patricio Dh middle name. He is a mini-me of his father...
I think both names fit them rather well....
~ Mari (Air Force mommy)~ wifey to Carlos ~ mommy to Dylan Michael & Landon Patrick ~ new baby boy Logan Christopher born January 20th, 2013...
ODD's name is Helaina Madison. We just loved Helaina, thought it was beautiful and classic but not common. Madison is really common..but I was 18 and couldn't think of anything else that went with Helaina..lol.
LO's name is Ava Elise. No special meaning just a pretty classic sweet name. Elise is DH's favorite kind of car. A Lotus Elise.
Andrew William
Andrew - the kids actually picked this name out - not that we asked them to...but they both *independently* told us that was the name we should give the baby (my 7 & 5 y.o.)....they didn't know it was a boy. DH likes very traditional names, I like less traditional - Irish names that DH usually hates.....DH and I couldn't agree on any other name so we went with Andrew!
William - it is a family middle name for my husband's family (his grandfather, dad and DH all have William as their MN)
and really ODS should have had William as his mn, but at the time I really didn't like it. So when we found out this one was a boy, I suggested it to DH...he wasn't sure but then his dad was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer - and that changed his mind...he thought he would like to honor his dad by using that for LO's middle name - and I couldn't argue with that at all!! [for the record, FIL's cancer has miraculously disappeared!! Thank God!]
Laurie - wife to Eric, mom to M.M. , M.J.� and� A.W. "There is more stupidity than hydrogen in the universe, and it has a longer shelf life" - FZ
My daughter is Lauren Nicole. We just loved the name Lauren and it sounds great and is spelled the same in English and Portuguese. Nicole is my middle name and we couldn't think of anything else. She was almost Natalia, but we're both really glad now that we went with Lauren.

In 1907 Arthur Bell Pollock stood in front of his wife with a coin in his hand. Heads, they would stay in Kitchener, Ontario and try their luck making hornless phonographs, known today as record players. Tails, they would move out west and possibly sell real estate. Lucky for us, Pollock got heads. It was this bold spirit that would see ELECTROHOME produce the first color TV sets in Canada, supply Atari® with screens for video games such as Pac-Man, and provide the monitors on which Cape Canaveral watched Space Shuttle Columbia launch the first Canadarm.
The line now includes DVDs, radios with iPod® docks, karaoke systems, and digital photo frames, reflecting modern tastes and utilizing cutting-edge technology.

When it was originally delayed from the release date, I was a little dissapointed - or, my little brother was - he's the one with the 3DS, I have my money being funded into other projects (project car FTW.)
When we finally get out to the store (GameStop), they didn't have any physical copies of the game in stock. They told me that we could download it, which I declined for two main reasons; (1) If your gaming system craps out, you can still use the cartridges/discs to play on another system (provided you can get one...), and (2) downloading the full game, with my horrible internet, would have taken forever.
Ended up ordering it, with In-Store Pickup. Week passes, I call them up - and I'm told that Nintendo still hadn't shipped the copies to them yet, and that they only were expecting TWO copies to come in.
Finally, after another TWO WEEKS of waiting, I gave up, called the store and had them change it to a mailed copy.
What seriously was the deal with getting a physical copy? Some people don't have the ability to download games quickly, or are old-school style (I usually burn games onto discs when I download them, like Surgeon Simulator or something similar.)
(By the way... loving the game already.)

Nintendo was trying to drum up eShop sales, so they intentionally botched the physical release.
When the Black Knight tossed Ragnell to Greil, it was actually meant as an attack. If Awakening is any indication, the proper way to use Ragnell is to throw it.

I think they just didn't have enough copies to meet initial demand or something. I wasn't able to get a copy until about...eh...three-ish weeks ago. Well worth the wait, however!
Evacuate? In our moment of triumph? I think you overestimate their chances.

The general theory is either
A) Nintendo didn't expect Fire Emblem to explode in popularity this well, seeing as most other games did not sell this well in the US
B) Nintendo didn't want to spend money, and is trying to get more cash by forcing people to get an eShop copy.

They claimed "shipping errors", but the more paranoid (see: crazy) will tell you that they just wanted to "encourage" (see: force) more people to download it, as they make far more money that way. I'd tell you which one I believe... but they might be listening.

Same here, according to that search option on Gamestop's website, the nearest store to me that has one used is 70 miles away. And neither do the 3 Walmarts I've been to have a copy either. A reason why it might be difficult to get physical copy is that Nintendo may be trying to increase digital downloads but there may be other reasons.
EvenSpoonier 4 years ago#9
The charitable explanation is that NoA has no faith in its NA userbase, and didn't think the game would sell well. This is the stated reason for the similar issues faced by Xenoblade. The more cynical explanation is that this was an attempt to push people to buy the downloadable version. Note that neither of these explanations casts NoA in a very good light. It dropped the ball, plain and simple; the only real question is why.
There's one other idea floated around sometimes that Nintendo was trying to engineer a shortage, but this holds no water. Nintendo has made some very ill-advised moves lately, but it's not stupid enough to try to engineer a shortage for a game while at the same time offering a downloadable version. I list this idea here only for completeness.

el_pablo65 4 years ago#10
In an official response to the issue Nintendo blamed variables in shipping as causing the launch day shortage. Then, in the same response, they stated that the game was readily available for download.
The game is still scarce, so variables in shipping have nothing to do with it at this point.
I put that, and the fact that both Amazon and Game Stop were shorted their initial pre-orders, to mean they were trying to encourage digital sales. But, clearly, I am just buying into a conspiracy theory. Nintendo would never screw over the retail stores that they were expecting to move a ton of Wii U last holiday and didn't.

2008 Kawasaki Teryx 750 4×4 First Ride 0
It's a mild, moonless February evening. I'm miles from anywhere in the star filled expanse otherwise known as Glamis-Southern California's sandy remnants of an ancient sea. The bright 40-watt halogen headlamps cut through the pitch black night, but do nothing to illuminate the dark, bottomless drop-off directly in front of me. I can't see where I'm going and under normal circumstances I would be wary of treading any farther. However, I've spent all sunny afternoon on the newest entry into the burgeoning Recreational Utility Vehicle (RUV) market and have yet to run into an obstacle that I couldn't surmount. So I mash the gas pedal. 'Here we go,' I say to myself right before my stomach drops and I'm pitched forward, blasting down a wall of sand.
So just what is a RUV? It's the latest rage in the recreational powersport industry. A basic Cliff Notes-worthy definition would be if a contemporary 4-stroke utility ATV and purpose built 4×4 off-road truck got boozed up during Karaoke night at the local dive bar, with the end result being a two-seater, half-scale trophy truck.
The concept, however, is nothing new, as desert rats and garage mechanics have been making their own freakish creations out of golf-carts for as long as they've been around. Even so, the market evolved into what it is today when Yamaha officially minted the niche with their Rhino in 2003.
Since, Rhinos have become the de facto standard – as any desert enthusiast will surely confirm as there are literally hundreds littered across Glamis' sandy expanse on any major winter weekend. Eager to take a slice out of the RUV pie, Kawasaki has released an all-new player in the side-by-side game – the 2008 Teryx 750 4×4.
Our two-part ride began at Ocotillo Wells OHV Park, near Brawley, California. Ocotillo is known for its diverse terrain – everything from sand washes, hills, steep climbs (as well as descents) and wide-open stretches of rocky, treeless expanse. As soon as the sun dipped below the horizon, we packed up and headed for the dunes of Glamis for part two of our ride where we learned just how good the Teryx is in the sand – and how much fun it is to play with at night.
Climbing into the Teryx is easy, as its uncluttered floorboard and intuitively placed grab handles make sliding into the seat quite simple. There's plenty of space between the driver and the compact, padded steering wheel with all of the various controls well placed within the drivers reach. Leg and head room are spacious, even for my six-foot frame and the integrated foot guards in the metal floor help keep the users' bottom half inside the vehicle at all times. A retractable three-point seat belt ensures both driver and passenger remain secure within the confines of the sporty bucket seats, which are also removable, if the need arises. We really liked the seats as they provided a reasonable amount of cushion without any uncomfortable pressure points, even after spending all-day strapped in and hanging on for dear life. On the other hand, the car-like safety belt system doesn't feel like it keeps the passengers as secure when mobbing through g-outs and landing bigger jumps as we'd prefer. If you plan on using your Teryx in a more aggressive manner, a secure five-point harness would be a worthwhile upgrade. As it is, we survived unscathed but the set-up could be better.
Instrumentation is limited to just a parking brake, 4WD, and high-coolant temperature indicator lights, as well as a digital engine hour meter. Headlights are controlled via a three-way (off, low, high beam) twist-style knob to the left of the steering wheel. There's also a 12-volt accessory power outlet and a nice size glove box capable of keeping a few personal items secure and out of the way.
Starting the engine is as simple as turning the dash-board mounted key, which can be done while in any gear, so long as the brake is applied. Temperatures throughout our ride never dipped below the 60s, so the use of the choke was never required. (Yep, this thing is carbureted, more on that later…) Release of the foot-operated parking brake, slide the shifter into 'H' and you're ready to go.
Mash the accelerator pedal and the Teryx lunges forward courtesy of the first-in-class 90-degree, 749cc V-Twin engine borrowed from Kawi's Brute Force utility ATV. The 8-valve SOHC mill has been specifically retuned for a wider spread of that stump yanking, wheel spinning torque. On flat ground, under wide-open throttle, the 48 mph top speed (governor limited) can be achieved quickly. At speed, the exhaust note exiting out of the spark arrestor-equipped stainless steel exhaust is throaty and never became annoying. Throttle response is smooth and accurate which makes modulating the throttle in a power slide ridiculously easy-even for someone who doesn't have a wealth of driving experience. The Power-zapping sand dunes didn't seem to hinder the Teryx much at all (with tires properly aired down). The liquid-cooled engine still had plenty of grunt to lug us (including our camera gear and spare wheels/tires) around and was plenty capable of getting back in motion after parking on steep sandy inclines. Making sure that the engine is properly cooled is a compact, forward-mounted radiator which also features a thermostat controlled fan that's tucked up neatly out of harm's way.
Fueling the engine is a pair of Keihin CVKR-34 downdraft carburetors. Yes, Team Green engineers decided that it would be best to use a proven set of gas-air blenders on this year's model. But don't fret techies… EFI is in the works. However, if you are the kind of owner who enjoys working on their own toys; carburetors might be a boon, especially if you plan on undertaking some engine modifications. The easy-to-access airbox employs a re-useable oval-foam air filter mounted up high where it belongs.
The Teryx puts its claimed 44.2 horsepower and 40.8 lb-ft of torque to its large 26-inch specially designed Maxxis tires via a continuously variable belt-drive transmission (CVT). The transmission is controlled by a hand-operated shift lever mounted on the center console. The driver can choose from two forward gears (high/low range), neutral and reverse by sliding the lever fore or aft. High gear is the preferred drive mode under most circumstances, while Low range can be used for slow speed situations when maximum torque is required, like aggressive or technical hill climbs, etc… The best thing about the CVT transmission it delivers instantaneous acceleration. There are no momentary acceleration pauses like you'd expect while changing gears in a car or truck. In drive mode it's completely smooth as if it were one constant, never-ending gear. However, at a stop the driver does hear a rather unnerving audible clunk when changing gears. Despite the weird noises, the easy-to-use transmission never gave us any problems.
In 2WD the rear wheels are locked together and turn in-sync just like many ATVs. On most terrain, the Teryx's fat tires hook up just fine. However, for the occasion when traction is marginal, a conveniently positioned dash-mounted 2WD/4WD toggle switch is at the drivers finger tip. The switch can be pushed on the fly, but will only engage/disengage below 16 mph. Engagement was always smooth, but we found that sometimes the gas pedal needs to be tapped a few times before the gears mesh and engage.
When the trail gets really gnarly, the Teryx employ's a Variable Front Differential Control which allows the front wheels to be incrementally locked together via a separate spring-loaded lever. When locked in the maximum position, the Teryx delivers true 100-percent, rock-crawling 4WD. However, when fully engaged, steering does become heavy and the vehicle has a greater propensity to understeer. In practice, we found it best to use it only when navigating steep slow-speed inclines with the wheels almost completely straight.
Stability or a lack there of has plagued the RUV industry since its inception and Kawasaki engineers worked hard to ensure the Teryx is a safe, stable vehicle. To accomplish this, engineers designed the machine's wheelbase at 76-inches and overall width at 58.7-inches. This gives the Teryx to a long, wide footprint out on the trail, yet it can still fit in the bed of a full-size pickup truck. In an effort to increase the Teryx's overall balance, Kawasaki engineers strategically mounted the engine in the middle of the chassis-between the driver and passenger seats. This helps keep the chassis balanced front-to-rear and also helps keep the machines 1276 pounds (claimed dry weight) centered. In the case where physics get the upper hand, the tubular steel frame incorporates a roll-bar which meets SAE standards for driver and passenger roll-over protection.
Handling and machine stability are one of the strongest aspects of the Teryx. Steering is precise and very neutral feeling. In 2WD there isn't a hint of understeer, which makes it possible for the driver to spin up the rear wheels and 'steer with the rear' quite effectively. Even while turning sharply at speed, the Teryx's four-wheels remained close to the ground and although it is possible to roll it, it's going to require a bit of driver negligence.
Complimenting the superb handling is proper, first-rate suspension that simply gets the job done. Up front, an independent, double-wishbone setup is linked to a set of long travel A-arms, dampened via preload-adjustable, gas-charged Kayaba coil-over shocks. Front wheel travel comes in at 7.5 inches.
Similar to that of the front, an independent, double-wishbone setup handles rear suspension duties and is dampened via gas-charged Kayaba coil-over shocks which also feature remote reservoirs with 7.2 inches of travel. The IRS also incorporates a torsion bar which helps to eliminate body roll. Ground clearance is a lofty 11.2 inches, which allows the Teryx to comfortably sail over large trail hazards. And in case ground clearance isn't quite enough, the Teryx employs steel skid plates underneath its vital components that help protect the drivetrain from the affects of your ensuing mayhem.
Suspension action is responsive and delivers a plush ride. In fact, it never felt overwhelmed unless you hit a serious g-out or came-up a little short on a jump. Even though we got the suspension to bottom, it had good resistance and dreaded bump steer was minimal. When maneuvering through whoops sections as long as the driver stayed on the throttle, the Teryx tracked straight without any side-to-side swapping. Otherwise it devoured all of the types of terrain we threw at it during the course of our rides: steep inclines, declines, jumps, g-out's – if you can find it, most probably the Teryx can handle it.
Dual front 200mm disc brakes with two-piston 27mm calipers supplement the engines' electronic engine braking system and are neatly recessed inside the steel wheels, sheltering them from debris and other trail hazards. Out back, the Teryx utilizes Kawasaki's sealed, hydraulic, multi-disc rear brake system, which was designed to work in the harshest of conditions. The brakes on the Teryx are fantastic with plenty of power and feel available at the foot pedal.
There's no doubt the Teryx is a sporty machine, but when the time comes to put in some real 'work', the Teryx doesn't let you down. Behind the seats a large tie-hook equipped bed can accommodate some of the machine's 500-pound load carrying capacity. Towing can be accomplished via the 2-inch receiver hitch and the Teryx has a 1300-pound towing capacity. A 7.9-gallon fuel tank is positioned underneath the passenger seat and feeds the engine through a reliable fuel pump powered by the vacuum produced by the running engine. The fuel tank is filled via a spin-on style fuel cap. However, there is no fuel indicator or low fuel light.
Externally, the Teryx sports Thermoplastic Olefin bodywork that Kawasaki claims is more scratch resistant than polyethylene plastic (used some other RUVs). Overall fit and finish was great and we never heard any weird squeaks or encountered any loose or rattling parts by the end of our test.
So there you have it, a half-scale trophy truck in a RUV disguise. The Teryx's got the power, handling, suspension and even the drivetrain to take you miles away from anywhere. But the thing we found ourselves most impressed with was just how easy it is to drive. After spending two days in the driver seat we couldn't find one obstacle we couldn't find our way over. And throughout our excursion the Teryx delivered a comfortable ride that didn't wear us out.
The Teryx 750 comes in three variations: the standard, LE and NRA models. The standard we tested has an MSRP of $9699 and comes in three colors: Sunbeam Red, Woodsman Green, and REALTREE Hardwoods Green HD. The LE edition comes in the same colors but adds a digital instrumentation package, hard top, half-windshield, dual retractable cup holders, and gas-assisted tilting cargo bed at a price of $10,599. The NRA edition has all of the LE's features plus dual gun scabbards and comes with REALTREE Hardwoods Green HD painted bodywork, bumper, wheels and dashboard at an MSRP of $11,349.

This month, in collaboration with Orion magazine, we embark on "Walking the World," the second installment of our two-month focus on international nature writing. The writers in our September issue record their walks to give us a unique ground-level perspective on our natural and urban surroundings. Whether a remembrance of a haunting episode on the streets of Paris, or an account of a trek through Milan toward a distant peak, these pieces provide a rare glimpse into the realm of the writer on foot, in his element, and speaking about the world that we all navigate. This month we present the work of Siegfried Kracauer, Troub's, Davide Sapienza, Agur Schiff, Antonio Ungar, Alexei Ivanov, and Marjan Strojan. We hope you'll also head over to Orion to read their fantastic selections for this co-publication.

For the 12th time this season Billy Gillispie sent a different starting lineup out on the floor trying to figure out the winning combination his squad has been lacking for the majority of the season and all of Big 12 Conference play.
Even though it was a new-look starting five, the Oklahoma State Cowboys (11-11, 4-5 in Big 12 play), who have had to deal with their own slew of injuries, did not waver beating Texas Tech 80-63, completing the season series sweep, on Tuesday in the United Spirit Arena.
"A disappointing loss, didn't do enough to win," Tech head coach Billy Gillispie said. "Weren't anywhere nearly good defensively enough. Did enough offensively early especially and parts of the second half, but just could never get a defensive stop, you have to do that to try to win games in the Big 12."
Tech (7-14, 0-9) had no answer for Oklahoma States offense, especially down the stretch and in times when it mattered the most.
Like the first meeting between the two teams on January 4 in Stillwater, which the Cowboys won 67-59, Tech was able to hang in the game for a while before Oklahoma State capitalized on the Red Raiders mistakes to put some distance between them.
With 11 minutes and 37 seconds left in the first half, Tech and Oklahoma State were knotted up at 14 apiece, but the Cowboys proceeded to rattle off eight unanswered points taking a 22-14 lead – Tech would never lead in the game again.
The closest the Red Raiders got in the second half was within six, trailing 48-42 after Ty Nurse drilled a three-pointer swinging the momentum back the Red Raiders was for just a moment.
The Cowboys came out of a timeout and took it right back courtesy of a 10-2 run, thanks primarily to the hot hand of Markel Brown, who finished the game 7-for-12 from the field and racked up 30 points on the night.
Brown was not only good from the field, but also from the charity stripe where he finished 13-for-13 and as a team the Cowboys shot 94.3 percent from the line going 33-for-35.
With the run came a comfortable lead, which the Cowboys rode and continued to pile onto until the final buzzer.
With the victory Oklahoma State notched its first road win in Big 12 play and Cowboys head coach Travis Ford said it all just came down to the team focusing and not worrying about more than they needed too.
"We've talked a lot about in the last couple of days trying to get a road win, we need a road win and this is how we're going to do it," he said. "It wasn't as much about X's and O's , as it was about playing hard, keep playing, don't worry about the score, do the things you can control and our guys did a good job of that. They stayed focused and free-throw shooting was a result of that, just their focus."
Despite getting beat by double digits again, the Red Raiders had three players reach double digits in scoring as Jaye Crockett, Robert Lewandowski and Ty Nurse all eclipsed the 10-point mark, but it wasn't enough to topple the Cowboys.
Crockett, who is averaging 11.7 points per game in Big 12 play, put on a show on Tuesday showing his ability as the sophomore went for 16 points and grabbed 14 rebounds, marking his second straight double-digit performance and double-double as well.
With the losses piling up, Crockett said the team has to be mentally tough in a situation like this, but does feel they are getting closer to getting over the hump of winning a Big 12 game.
"Everyday we get closer," he said. "Like (Lewandowski) said with practices coach is telling us, you got to do this, you got to do that. Then we'll do good things, but then we'll go back and make a mistake and we just takes steps back instead of steps forward."

Haye-Chisora Takes a Hit: Povetkin-Rahman Pulled
Alexander Povetkin's WBA World Heavyweight title defence against Hasim Rahman has been withdrawn from the show at West Ham United on Saturday 14th July.
The fight was to feature on the card being topped by David Haye and Dereck Chisora's eagerly awaited WBO/WBA International heavyweight showdown.
Due to licensing conditions at West Ham United, Haye v Chisora could not start later than 10pm and with German TV network ARD insisting, due to their Saturday night scheduling, that Povetkin v Rahman must fill that slot and be before Haye v Chisora, that time frame was impossible to work to.
The show is being televised in sixty-plus countries, many with more than a one hour time difference, so to get everyone to agree to ARD's preferred order would be impossible.
EPIX will broadcast the fight live in the USA and they need to be comfortable with the start time too. If Haye v Chisora, which is the main attraction on the show, was to go on before Povetkin v Rahman it would have had to start no later than 8.20pm meaning that Povetkin v Rahman could potentially have taken place in front of an empty stadium with the majority of fans leaving to catch trains and other public transport.
With the fight being withdrawn from the show, BoxNation will now showcase some of the very best talent on the soon to be sold out show.
Manchester's big-hitting Matthew Hall will now challenge unbeaten Irishman Gary O'Sullivan for the Vacant WBO International Middleweight title and Cromer's exciting Commonwealth champion, Liam Walsh faces new opponent Italian Domenic Urbano for the Vacant WBO European Super-Featherweight title.
Unbeaten Oldham welterweight Ronnie Heffron features in an eight round contest, plus Stockton-on-Tees lightweight prospect Bradley Saunders will go in over six rounds and Lithuanian super-middleweight Sergej Rozvadovsky over eight rounds.
Haye v Chisora will be televised live and exclusive in the UK on BoxNation (Sky Ch. 456/Virgin Ch. 546) and in America on EPIX.

Been snowboarding goofy think i have been doing it wrong.
Just watched this video and the guy said use your kicking foot as the back foot because you will use it to steer.
I been on the slopes 4 times and have been using my right foot in the front because the instructor told us that.
Should i switch next time i go?? i been having problems with S turns so i am trying to figure it out. I know eventually ill have to be able to ride on both sides goofy and regular because i see pros do it but would it be easier if i switch next time i go?
I tried other techniques and i definitely go with my right foot forward if i try to slide and if i get pushed i tend to put my right foot forward but when i kick the ball i kick with right foot. So confusing !!!
The kicking foot method of determining stance is just a generalization, and in my opinion, a bad one. I think the slide technique is a better option for helping to determine stance. In general, if you try both stances one will feel way more natural, especially trying to skate around.
p.s. I ride goofy and kick with my right foot, along with many, many other riders
You could make an argument for learning the OPPOSITE way you slide, then learning "switch" would be a lot easier. I kind of wish I had done that...
try a skateboard and see what is natural
imagine running on wood floor with socks on. which foot would you put out in the front when you try to slide sideways? it has nothing to do with which foot is the kicker. I kick with my right foot and I ride goofy.
No, just stick with it. There's a lot of other reasons for this and one of them is your first sentence. You use your FRONT foot to steer, NOT, your back foot the majority of the time. Second, could be upper body counter rotation. You need to keep your body aligned with the board. 3rd, you need to keep your weight centered on the board. Your probably riding in the back seat, not pressuring the front of your board properly.
If you do all these properly, it does not matte what foot you use. I was able to complete S turns second time down riding switch the first time out. Now, I'm not nearly as fast or dynamic riding goofy as regular, but I can definitely complete turns fluidly at a moderate pace.

A Secret Service agent shamed the United States after a wild night of babes and booze that ended in an argument with a Colombian hooker over as little as $47.
One of 11 elite agents assigned to ensure President Obamas protection at a summit meeting in Cartagena, Colombia, was busted after his lady of the evening refused to leave his hotel room in the morning without her fee.
That woman was one of 11 hookers hired by the agents and the only one who hadnt left Cartagenas swank Hotel Caribe, where White House staffers, members of the press and dignitaries are staying during the Summit of the Americas meeting, sources said.
(Excerpt) Read more at nypost.com ...
Just as I thought. He believed that the gorgeous "supermodel" type gal hanging around the hotel bar and pool just fell in love with him.
And he was shocked to discover she wanted money!
Careers lost, over $47.
It just proves that yuo don't pay a hooker for sex, you pay her to leave!
He should'a asked Zer0 for a bailout from Zer0's stash.
Could these guys be too young to have watched "Miami Vice" in their formative years? They shoulda known!
(Now I feel ancient.)
Good. Whatever "Obama's goals in the region" are, we can be pretty certain they're not for the benefit of the United States. Rock on, SS agents!
I assume that Zer0's goal is to make the US a tin-horned despot's lair, just like rest.
uh it was a science experiment? We were looking for ways to make a whore moan . . . .
Yeah they are finito obviously, which is why at first I didn't believe this. A friend of mine is in the SS and never in a million years could I picture him doing something like this considering what he went through to get the job. Marine corp, then a NYC cop, then the SS. But on the other hand ye olde booze can make anyone crazy. I remember 20 years ago I was at a conference for my job and some higher ups got drunk and set off fire alarms and fire extinguishers in the hotel. Just a huge WTF?? Not only were they fired but also arrested.
Bush's fault?
"A Secret Service agent shamed the United States after a wild night of babes and booze that ended in an argument with a Colombian hooker over as little as $47. "
Ummm...I think the shame began when they hired hookers and boozed it up.
I'm betting he was a tight-wad Democrat.
Careers lost, over $47.
So they wouldn't pay $47 for "services rendered", huh? I guess it's safe to say that these SS "men" were liberals because, 1) they solicited prostitutes, and 2) they are never willing to pay for things with their own money.
HEY! - This isn't the Clinton Administration...confused and dazed - now reassigned!
I think the Federal Govt is broken...kinda like a high speed chase in LA with no tires - just sparks - but the driver still thinks he can get away...while the rest of us view the footage from above...
man oh man...this is just great!
What goals in the region would this imbecilic marxist have?
The secret service agents are reflecting what has happened to America in the past 40 months: we got a better screwing than they did. The difference is that we had to pay and will keep on paying for the rest of our lives as well as the lives of our decendants.
Now I ask you: was it worth it to elect an unknown, pathetic excuse for an American as president?
I don't believe this story for a minute - it smells to high heaven. It's far more likely that these men were set up for demonization because they saw something potentially damaging to Obama or some of his staff, and they have to be discredited and silenced or their reputations ruined to protect someone.
I remember once I was outside a hotel when I saw a white guy wearing a business suit walking away quickly. A black woman with an open shirt and no bra, breasts totally exposed, was chasing after him screaming "give me my money you SOB!" the guy went into a car and quickly zipped away with the woman outside cursing, lol.
Supporting Marxist governments and insurrections in South America springs to mind.
This isn't the first time this crap has happened under the communist hussein and only luck that it was exposed. These clowns were drunk all week and it was one big party time. It is the commie lib anything goes mentality for the last 3 years. Big Sis is going to the bighouse for perjury, Dick Holder & furious, Salazar dissing a judge, hussein going around congress, Vilisack and the black farmers fraud, slimy visitors allowed in white house, hussein cant pass a background check, etc etc. Now, the USA is the laughingstock of the world.
You can take it to the bank that somebody's gonna get screwed.
Stimulus finally got down to street level.
Rove's fault for letting Pelosi get control of the House and then putting up McCain followed by Willard.
You appear to know a lot more about these things than I ever will. However, for most guys, if the hooker in their hotel room rendered services without payment, they would be glad to leave her in the room, while they went about their business. The SS agents, of course, must receive extensive training on maintaining decorum and bringing disgrace on the themselves or the President. Either training failed, or they failed to train them.
Still hard to believe that eleven of these guys went off the reservation like this all at once, given their background and training. That is, unless in the last three years Obama has gutted the Secret Service and filled it with people he could "trust" irrespective of training and background.
Would be interesting to know what he has done to the Secret Service, and what the full details of this incident are.
How many lives are going to be hurt because these men used poor judgment? I don't want them serving MY country.
Maybe they can get together with Bobby Patrino and Bill Clinton.
Can't wait to hear how this is Bush's fault....
Did the US press guys in the same hotel get the better hookers, or the cheaper hookers? I'm just curious why they didn't get into trouble.
For want of a nail the shoe was lost.
For want of a shoe the horse was lost.
For want of a horse the rider was lost.
For want of a rider the message was lost.
For want of a message the battle was lost.
For want of a battle the kingdom was lost.
And all for the want of a horseshoe nail.
Fixed it! ! ! !
Too bad Bill Clinton isn't still president, he would of liked that trip very much.
Back when I was a frogman, half of the guys would remove their wedding bands when traveling "ex-conus" or out of the continental 48 states.
Seriously, half of the guys would go for anything in a skirt, once they were out of the country.
A first-class beach resort hotel in Cartagena in advance of a major conference would look like the after-party for the Miss Colombia Pageant. It would just be swarming with "10s."
That's a lot of temptation.
WOW! It seems that the White House is a frat house....
Coming soon.... Whitehouse staffer found with 2 keys of coke.
Come on . . . . They were hired under Bush. He never told them how to behave around hookers. . . . . Now Look at how they handle themselves. . . . Bush should be ashamed. . . .
The only thing embarrassing about this "scandal" is that one of 'em was dumb enough to hold out on a lousy 47 bucks. I'd have given her more than that as a tip to keep her mouth shut.
I think the problem was that the agent in question thought the beautiful supermodel type hanging around the pool and hotel bar fell for him. They don't walk around with signs saying "whore." They look like college girl beauty pageant contestants. They don't say, in the bar or at the pool, "I'm a whore, and I want $50 for an hour." Not the high class ones. So my guess is that the agent actually took offense at being asked for money, and tried to throw her out. But it was her home court, not his. And I'll be he had paid her a thousand dollars, and not stiffed her for $47.
Every "progressive" Lib I've ever met was a cheap bastard.
It must go with the training...
Sadly, we've been the laughingstock of the world since hussein took office. It has only grown worse.
In this instance it was just a hooker, but who knows what would happen if a foreign agent posing as a hooker could find out while rummaging through his belongings while there?
Finally. An Obama scandal where it's appropriate to blame it on Bush.
That might be the case if it was just one guy. But it doesn't sound like it was just one agent/one hooker.
Now, maybe his beef was actually with the hotel wanting the $47, not the hooker, and that's what started the argument.
Either way, shouldn't have been boozing, and shouldn't have been womanizing. No excuses.
The GSA is having their next conference in Columbia.
This is hugh! (had to say it). New tagline...
That's why I have a firm rule of no more than one alcoholic drink at any work-related gathering. You DON'T want to accidentally say how you really feel about senior management when they are walking by behind you.
Oh, of course, it's a huge security risk.
But when you see a dozen girls who look like the finalists of the Miss Colombia Pageant sashaying around the pool in bikinis, and meet them later at the hotel bar in slinky mini-dresses, rational thought goes out the window.
Especially if the girls are not advertised as putas at all, but seem just like really nice (and gorgeous) girls who just really, genuinely like you. So much, that they would like to visit your hotel room.
Ask any military vet who has spent a few days "awaiting transportation" (AT on the old travel claims) in some nice hotel in Europe, Asia or South America. The girls just seemed to "be around."
And if you start with the half of the men who remove their wedding bands the minute they head overseas, it's not hard to understand the rest.
I'll bet the other ten (who did cause a scene) would like to choke the guy who refused to pay the "nice girl" her $50 after their "cosensual affair" (he thought).

I had an internal the other day. I'm earlier... more like 5 weeks and they didn't see ANYTHING. My uterus lining was thick, but that's it. BUT a week makes a BIG deal with these sorts of things. You'll probably see something!

Been with my DH since 2000. Married since 11/1/2008.
Been TTC #1 since May. Got our BFP 9/8/10! :)
Well I had a t/v in my first pregnancy and i saw the baby.. it looked like a tiny sea horse :) they said you should at least see a tiny heartbeat flickering by then.. but unfortunately for me there wasnt.. but i was cramping realllly bad so i knew what was going on. Good luck and love the experience :)
You should be able to see the heartbeat at that point (very small pulsing), but probably won't be able to hear it. The u/s tech probably won't even try to get it on the doppler at that point. The baby will probably be about 1/2 centimeter long....so tiny! I had a u/s with my son at 6 weeks 5 days and am having one this Friday as well...I will be about 6 weeks.
Good luck!!

There are lots of legends that surround American folk hero John Chapman. Some say he wore a tin pot for a hat and a coffee sack for a shirt. Others say he was a gentle man who never carried a weapon and was known to put out a campfire to keep a mosquito from being burned. Even if those stories are only fables, John Chapman, affectionately known as Johnny Appleseed, was well known for his endurance and courage.
Chapman was born in 1774 in Massachusetts and grew up to become one of the most beloved characters in American history. As a young man, he began wandering the frontier creating apple orchards throughout the Midwest. Some of the trees he planted still bear fruit today.
Chapman lived simply, going barefoot and sleeping outdoors by choice. He was not a poor man, as many believed. He sold apple tree seedlings to new settlers, if they had money. If not, he bartered for supplies or gave his seedlings away to people in need. He died at age 70 in Fort Wayne, Ind., owning a large amount of property.
Apples are still plentiful in the Midwest during harvest season and today's project is designed to honor both Chapman and his favorite fruit. Store candy or other treasures in this happy-go-lucky apple.
I found these directions at the Family Crafts site on the Web. Log on to www.familycrafts.about.com for more craft ideas. Supplies you will need:
-3-inch terra cotta clay pot and saucer.
-three-quarter-inch wooden spool.
-Green foam sheet.
-Red and white acrylic paint.
-Black felt-tip marking pen.
-Clear acrylic spray paint.
Wipe the pot and saucer with a damp cloth to remove residue.
Paint the pot and saucer red inside and out and paint the spool brown. Let dry.
Use a pencil to draw two oval eyes and a mouth using the picture as a guide. Trace over the pencil lines with a black marking pen.
Paint the eyes white inside the ovals then add a small black dot for pupils when dry.
Glue the spool to the center of the bottom of the saucer.
Spray both pieces with clear acrylic paint.
Cut a leaf from the foam sheet and glue to the spool "stem."

Lee Tergesen
Jump to
A brown-haired actor of medium build with malleable good looks that lent credence to portrayals of all-American charmers as well as sinister psychopaths, Lee Tergesen has enjoyed a varied career, snagging roles he has certainly made the most of since his debut in the early 1990s, not the least of which was his shockingly candid turn on the HBO series "Oz" (1997-2003). A graduate of Manhattan's American Musical and Dramatic Academy, this Connecticut native acted on the NYC stage and waited tables in the city in the late 1980s, where and when he was spotted by writer-producer Tom Fontana. With a 1990 episode of NBC's "Law & Order" to his credit, Tergesen relocated to Los Angeles for a Fontana-aided role in the surfers-as-bank-robbers action flick "Point Break" (1991) and proceeded to get parts in television-premiered projects including Lifetime's "The Killing Mind" and the HBO-screened thriller "Cast a Deadly Spell."
