"Maybe now I`ll be able to have a couple of extra cookies or ice cream after dinner without feeling so guilty. Or, without my wife yelling at me."
David Larsen
Every new year begins with indulgence as the daughters birthday is on the 2nd of Jan! We enjoy this guilty pleasure {'twas Chocolate Orange Almond Gateau this year}. Predictably, the next day I'm hit by New Year guilt pangs. It's time to think everything on a healthier note, especially to give the year a good beginning blah blah blah… High on my list is plain flour substitutes, as in my mind 'plain flour = empty calories'. Extended vacations with growing kids means 24 X 7 Cookie Monsters, A L W A Y S H U N G R Y! For me healthy doesn't necessarily mean knocking the butter out of the cookies during winter … butter has important work to do in this incessant cold weather we are braving.
The primary difference between different types of flour are the quantity of the wheat germ and bran that are milled with the flour, and the type of wheat used for the flour, and the relative protein content of that wheat. Whole wheat flour is simply wheat that has been milled into flour with some, or all, of the germ and bran still attached. Additionally, different varieties of wheat contain different amounts of protein, and the more protein is contained in the flour, the higher gluten it has. {Source:Hubpages.com}
India is traditionally a country where whole wheat flour {aata} is found in virtually every home, and freshly made whole wheat flat breads {rotis, chapatis, parathas etc} often accompany main meals. Until a few years ago, the use of plain flour was limited to cakes, biscuits etc. Unfortunately that is changing as people fall for the disguised charm that plain flour offers, deceptively increasing the luxury in our daily bread, yet sacrificing important proteins in the process.Thankfully though, there are an equal number of adventurous foodies who try to experiment with whole grains. I am one of the latter though I do tend to keep on middle ground; a little bit of plain and a little of whole grain. Other than whole wheat, I often try including buckwheat and oat in my bakes. Quinoa is one whole grain I would love to try, but the price is exorbitantly high as it is an import from South America. So my oft used alternate is oats which are extremely nutritious, containing more protein and unsaturated fat than any other cereal grain.
Whole Grains are Much More than Fibre
Whole grains contain all three parts of the grain kernel – the germ, endosperm and bran. Most often during the milling process the bran and germ are removed leaving only the endosperm. This results in refined grains. However, whole grains contain all three parts of the grain – this makes them a richer source of fibre, vitamins and minerals.
Oats : The Super Whole Grain
Oats have more protein, calcium and Vitamin E than other common unfortified whole grains (wheat, brown rice or whole corn grain) on a gram per gram basis. Only oats have a high amount of soluble fibre (beta glucan) compared to whole wheat or rice. {Source: Quaker Oats}.
With all these inspired thoughts in my head, I set off to make cookies, or rather chocolate chip cookies for a healthier 2011! I made a small batch as I consciously stayed away from plain flour and knew not where I was headed. The resultant cookies were a shock to my system, and I now wonder why I even bothered to look at plain flour in my chocolate chip cookies for so many years. I have always included some whole wheat by default, but was taken aback to see that using whole grains alone still gave them a fabulous texture, and handsome bite.Try these, they're worth every bite even though they don't look very pretty. The cookie mightn't be as indulgent as a plain flour smooth cookie if thats what you make. For me, the transition from part whole wheat to whole whole wheat was like I had won the first prize; including oats and demerera sugar giving me the runners up too. I must admit I used my precious stash of Ghirardeli dark chocolate chips in hope that the Ghirardeli would make up for loss of flavour and quintessential chocolate-chip cookie indulgence. I was soon to eat humble pie because they just added to an already delicious cookie.With this new cookie under my belt, 2011 began to feel better already almost! To prove me otherwise, the pre-teen & the teen hit the kitchen this afternoon, shrugging off the cold, and indulged in piling the calories onto my so called healthy cookies. The daughter made delicious 'Cookies & Cream Strawberry Sundaes' for themselves {low fat cream being small consolation}; the son playing the loyal slave. He knew he wouldn't get a crumb if he displeased his elder sibling; even then wasn't 'allowed' as much as a lick of cream off the spatula!!So much so for my inspired beginning … thankfully this was just 4 cookies. The rest retained their 'healthy' status!!
[print_this]Whole Wheat & Oat Chocolate Chip Cookies
Makes 2 – 2 1/2 dozen cookies
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
3/4 cup demerarera sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup + 2 tbsp whole wheat flour
1 1/2 cups oats
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup walnuts, finely chopped
In a bowl, stir together the dry ingredients – flour, oats, baking soda, baking powder, salt, chocolate chips, walnuts.
In another big bowl, cream the butter and sugar till fluffy. Next beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
Fold the dry ingredients into the wet. Drop a tbsp of cookie dough onto greased cookie trays, leaving an inch and a half in between for spreading during baking. {I use a cookie scoop}. Flatten gently with the tines of a fork.
Bake at 180C for 12-15 minutes, until golden brown.
Remove from oven, leave to cool on trays for 1 minute, then remove to cooling racks and allow to cool completely. Store in an airtight box.♥ Thank you for stopping by ♥

Divine! I cannot resist oatmeal cookies.
This recipe looks wonderful! Will have to try it soon. And the cookies look pretty too, actually. Feel like grabbing one right off the page!
Such a healthy and inspiring recipe Deeba. Combination of al ingredients simply making this cookies irresistible. Well done !
They does look very pretty and yummy.
You won't believe it, I have been searching for an oatmeal and whole wheat cookie recipe and I get one today and from you Deeba!! Thanks a ton, these look just delicious !!
Enjoyed reading the part about your kids, can very well relate to it:))
I have to admit that I've never really made an effort to bake with grains. It is these last few months that I'm taking notice of recipes that include the "better" types of flour and different grains. This recipe sounds like one that should be in a baker's repertoire; a healthier chocolate chip cookie.
Thanks for this Deeba and by the way, these cookies don't look at all ugly to me 🙂
Lovely looking plump cookies… can I have some ?
Slendid cookies, Especially I love those with the eyes..:)
The cookies look absolutely delectable deeba. Just toooo good 🙂
Oh my that is a great cookie. I should experiment more with whole food. Have a great day! Cheers!
Dear Deeba these cookies are georgeous!! I love pics! huggs.gñproa xoxoxox
Scrumptious and absolutely tempting cookies..feel like munching some..
Hallo Deeba. Like you, I always assumed that at best a wholewheat version of something will be a close second, but I'm intrigued that you feel they were better than the original. Definitely worth a try, thanks very much.
Wonderful healthy start for the day..looks super yumm and lovely texture.
wow…crunchy cookies….luvd ur clicks…:))
Made these straight away and even threw in some quinoa. GIRL! These are soooo addictive. Loved them. Awesome…as always!
Big Hugs!
Nothing like a hot chocolate chip cookie just out of the oven!
Addition of quinoa is good too but expensive!
Look forward to sampling for myself 🙂
Deeba, I call this a perfect cookie!! Just the recipe I was looking for with wheat, oats and chocolate. My 4 year old is gonna love it. Cant wait to make it. Thanks for posting.
Most definitely a wonderful way to start of the new year, on a sweet note. 🙂
My belated birthday wishes to Mahek.
Love the cookies… and the presentation 🙂
i can believe they are so healthy 🙂
Beautiful presentation Deeba, and the cookies sound heavenly too 🙂
These are very much my kind of cookies and even more Soeren's kinds of cookie! We like our cookies chunky and full of flavor so definitely going to be trying these!
I was looking for some nice bakes using wheat flour.This looks delicious. And it does look good to me ,like the coconut cookies .would be trying very soon!
Very inspiring post to try all these grains. I must say I'm WHEATAPHOBIC but you make it sound so delicious. I might even try it. And how could you think these cookies don't look pretty. They look beautiful!
With whole wheat flour, oats, dark chocolate and nuts, these cookies should be considered health food! At least that's what I'll be telling myself while I eat them 🙂
These look divine, though 1/2 cup butter sounds scary, I would surely give this a shot 🙂
Ah! now I have always been looking for an interesting way to make my lil girl eat oats…this looks good =) thanks for sharing!
Whole wheat is a great match for chocolate chip cookies! I'm planning to bake with more varied grains this year too.
Very nice cookies. I might even try it.
Healthier, yet delicious. What a combination! I'm trying this recipe to fight my holiday guilt. hehe.
Hi! Deeba, I'm all set to try my hand on these healthy cookies.
At the same time i'm wondering where did you miss your CHOCOCHIP CINNAMON BISCUITS and CHOCOLATES MERINGUES ,both from Le Cordon Bleu's Chocolate Bible.
Since they look superb do post them soon.
can i omit eggs???
i dont eat eggs but want to make these…
and just wanted to make sure…it is aata that you used here…right?
The comprehensive information about whole grains and oats is really interesting. I find plain flour increasingly boring to eat anyway and I'm trying to convert my family. My teen and pre-teen will love these cookies too (without the walnuts but maybe almonds).
Nice cookies Deeba…will try these soon as I am also trying to bake everything a healthier way by adding wheat flore, oats and soya etc… so this is a perfect cookie to try:)…
Thanks for the wonderful recipe. I tried the recipe as soon as I read it. The cookies are delicious!
I chuckled when I saw you called the cookies "handsome." I love those kinds of descriptions. They do look rather handsome, even a little stocky, if you ask me, and I agree that I'd prefer a little healthier treat this time of year. The whole wheat is a big thumbs up.
It has been awhile since I've made any oatmeal cookies. I love them 🙂
Love those plump healthy cookies and the quick dessert you whipped with them. This surely is a recipe for keeps.
Hi Deeba,
You've built an amazing blog!!!!! I keep visiting it regularly. Have been pottering about the blog and had decided to go through your archives. Most of the stuff gives an error message. Just thought you should know…
oh wow that looks so divine and wish to grab few of those, i adore the shape uniformity 🙂
Seriously, the hardest part of school vacations is hearing, "what can I eat now, Mama?" This is a wonderful recipe! I love how creative you are and your photos? Perfection.
WHat a great idea to use different flours. The cookies look delicious and satisfying. The sundaes look pretty tasty too!
These cookies are the ones I need to make next time a chocolate/sweet pang hits; I love the use of oats and whole wheat flour which makes the cookies taste earthy and rustic. Perfect recipe.
Exactly what I needed – I was about to start browsing for a whole-wheat chocolate chip cookie recipe & noticed your post in my google reader. How could I have missed it before! I cannot wait to try these out & will probably get to them in an hour or so!
Hello Mrs. Deeba,
loved the recipe from the start and even more after baking and eating them… they were a hit with my family and neighbours. will surely make them again. thank you so much for the wonderful recipe.
warm regards,
Hi Deeba, I found your blog a couple of weeks ago and made these cookies. They were amazing. The whole wheat and oats combination had me convincing myself that these were really very healthy cookies and I ate far too many, but who cares?! Thanks for the recipe. All your creations look wonderful. I am fan!
and once again Im bowled over..they were great!! thanks a ton for yet another great recipe.I just posted these on my blog…
Already told you on FB some time back that I made these cookies and now just posted it on my blog… thanks for this wonderful recipe Deeba… already baked 4 times :)….

During these summer months, many folks will be planning and taking vacations. Jesse Hobbs of Murfreesboro recently had an interesting vacation if one should call it a vacation. I'll let him explain in his own words.
Jesse says,"I've taken mission trips to Nicaragua with Baptist Medical and Dental Missions International (BMDMI) since 1999. We provide medical, dental and veterinary care, a pharmacy, and eyeglass clinic to indigent, rural Nicaraguans who come to hear the Gospel preached. We also have a program of giving away clothing, shoes, and dried beans and rice — we call it "Walmart", because you can't beat the price. There are no actual Walmarts in Nicaragua.
"Poor Nicaraguans must wear free clothing because of the outrageous messages on some of their shirts. Surely, they wouldn't wear it if they knew what it meant. I made a presentation to my Sunday school class at Barfield Baptist Church a year ago, which led one of our members, Peggy Coleman, to purchase clothes to contribute to the 2014 trip.
"She called me in March, asking about the deadline for her purchase to be included in the advance shipment our team sends down. My work situation is normally chaotic, but March went beyond normal, as I had to contend with a new computer, new operating system, new software and a trip to Boston to learn new processes. A younger person might take it all in stride, but my work day pretty much started with beating my head against the wall from 7 till 8, tearing my hair out from 8 till 9, going to scream therapy from 9 till 10, and then settling in to answer calls and emails asking why my work wasn't done. So I assured her that she still had time, but I didn't know the official deadline.
"She actually went to the Murfreesboro Walmart and bought new clothes for these Nicaraguans, which I found shockingly generous. After I told her I would have gone to yard sales, she compromised and shopped at Goodwill. Once she delivered them to me, I had no further excuse, so I called up our team leader, Raymond Aven, to ask when I would have to get the clothes to him. He just laughed and said the shipment went down two weeks before. So I confessed to Peggy that I had been a bad missionary, but I promised we would take them down in our duffel bags, knowing they wouldn't all fit in mine.
"The trip was scheduled for the second week of June. A month before, one of my son's college friends, Michal, called to say she wanted to go to Nicaragua with us. Her claim to fame was beating my son in reciting Psalm 119 entirely from memory. I told her we all had to have our money in by April 1, but if I called Raymond and he didn't laugh me off the phone like last time, then maybe she could go — but would she please take the rest of Peggy's clothing in her duffel bag.
"So the big day arrived and our plane taxied onto the runway in Memphis with Michal and all of Peggy's clothing on board. Then it turned around and went back to the gate —the de-icier wasn't working. "It's going to be 90 today, so who needs a de-icier?" They said it was below freezing at their cruising altitude, so they had to have it. "So put on a little extra fuel and fly a little lower and we'll be fine — what's the problem?" In case you didn't know, you can't reason with these people. The flight was canceled.
"Trying to rebook a group of 38 people on a commercial airline at a moment's notice is impossible, but Raymond and BMDMI gave it the old college try, while the rest of us spent the next 14 hours waiting. When airport security was about to shut down, United offered us vouchers to stay in the Southaven Inn, just over the state line. There was just one catch — all of the motels near the airport were full and the Southaven Inn had no airport shuttle, and the voucher would not cover any transportation cost we might incur getting there, or getting back the next day. And if we did all that, nobody was promising to fly us anywhere. Some people thought United was just adding insult to injury. Actually, it was worse than that — the Southaven Inn didn't have so much as a sign, and the voucher didn't have an address — we would have been helpless without Google.
"How many taxis would it take to transport 38 missionaries six miles, each with a duffel bag and carry-on, and what would it cost? We did the math. We couldn't expect any sympathy from the Nicaraguans, either — they wouldn't comprehend how healthy adults could be unable to walk 6 miles on paved roads with sidewalks, even with baggage —and it isn't even hilly! So the team members called any friend or acquaintance in the area who might lend us their car, so that we could get to the motel. A Memphis church offered to get us back to the airport, if we had a flight the next day.
"I came down the next morning for my Continental breakfast and asked my friends, 'Why so glum?' "Because it looks certain, or virtually certain, that our trip is canceled and we'll all have to turn around and go home. We don't have a plane, and time's about run out." Not knowing how to mince words, I just laid it all out there: "God spoke to me in a dream last night, saying for the second time he has a purpose for us going to Nicaragua, and the purpose can't be fulfilled if we don't go, so we're going!" I didn't expect them to believe me. I had enough trouble believing myself. I felt like the Nigerian widow's money — I was trying to get out of the country and I just needed a little outside help.
"Since it was Sunday morning, we might as well have church, so we all went out by the motel pool and sang hymns and prayed and heard a brief message. The motel wanted us out by 11:00, and it would take the team bus over an hour to get there, so we couldn't postpone the decision beyond 9:30 to cancel the trip and go home.
"So it happened that our service concluded about 9:30, and just then Raymond's phone rang, and it was someone from the group reservation desk calling to say United was putting on an extra flight just for us, all the way to Nicaragua.
That's right — we flew down there on commercial aircraft that were practically empty, except for our team. Some people called it a miracle. Others said the airline was just doing the right thing. "To me, getting some people to do the right thing is pretty much a miracle already. One team member told the airline clerk that she took back whatever she said about United in prayer yesterday. The clerk appreciated that.
"So we arrived in Nicaragua a day late, but otherwise in good spirits. There was just one problem: all those boxes of clothing and reading glasses and vet supplies we had shipped down three months previously — they were still locked up in Customs. Nothing had gotten through. This was not exactly a new thing — we used to ship down food and medicine, but the Nicaraguan government stopped that because they wanted us to buy locally, presumably so they could take their cut. Job called it bartering over orphans (Job 6:27), but that's how the world works in some places. But something was different this time. Previously, they delayed our shipment but always let it through eventually, after telling us not to do it again. This was the first time they hadn't let it in at all.
"So that was how we got out to this little village with no clothes to give away except what was on our backs and what Peggy Coleman sent in our duffel bags, through my mistake.
"We started a new ministry this year, offering hot food to all the people who came. The inspiration was Luke 9:13, where Jesus said to his disciples, "You give them something to eat." He didn't say, "I'm going to give them something to eat."
So the people who would have worked in Walmart kept busy crushing 2500 bags of Ramen noodles and, after they were cooked, serving them in Styrofoam cups with a spoon, a saltine cracker, and a cookie. Not the ideal diet, but some Nicaraguans told us that was the only food they would eat that day.
"Our bus broke down on the way back to the airport in Managua, and we almost missed our flight home. Michal exclaimed at one point, "Hooray! We get to stay in Nicaragua another day!" But nobody offered a hearty "Amen." If we visit that village next year, and I see someone wearing a T-shirt that says "Hobbs Family Reunion, 1985", I'll just know they're getting more use out of it than I would have."

Thanks for sharing, hope your path back to proficiency is quick and profitable.
Thanks for sharing, hope your path back to proficiency is quick and profitable.
Stop acting like someone shot your dog.
Thanks Greg,
actually I have learned a whole lot with this situation - especially about the significance of the diaphragm. If even half of what I previously believed was true, I should have not been able to play at any decent level. Obviously there are alternative methods of air management and I will be spending time with some medicine students on this and sharing the results.
Whenever I feel blue, I start breathing again.
Well, I think the views of lung capacity may be off. It's how you use air, not how much you have that matters.
Manny talked about this once, either here, or in person. He was saying how he has a small lung capacity. That's
when I realized that one doesn't need to be an exceptional physical specimen to be a great player.
So much of playing this demanding instrument is about proper mechanics, yet, those mechanics must be internalized
so deeply that you don't even think about them while you are playing. I wish I was at that point, but am not.
I still need to remind myself about posture, breathing, not using too much pressure, etc.
Stop acting like someone shot your dog.
All things being equal, trumpet is all mental. Your neuromotor system is now hardwired after all these years of playing. The kinesthetic - sensorimotor part will soon (and easily) come back on-line. The fact that you lost so little is a testament to that. The physicality of playing the trumpet is way over estimated. A certain amount is important for sure. For example, it is like Eric Bolvin says on his website about the pencil exercise: "if you can do it for 4 minutes (I think that was the number) straight, you have enough strength to play."
I have had the opportunity to see and hear retired trumpet professors 80+ play. The power and beauty of each note would make your jaw drop. The first trumpet in one of my old community bands was 80+ and was leading the 60 year olds. He had very little physical conditioning (did not look in great shape at all) but could play like a maniac. Efficiency! He has got it.
Rowuk, if you have been play at a high level for as long as suggested, you have great efficiency hardwired into you. Your brain is doing whatever it needs to do. Time-and-time again, elite performers such as athletes and musicians "think" they know how they are accomplishing the task and can describe what they do accurately, but a detailed scientific analysis often shows otherwise. We can not consciously control the micro-details of the elite performance; it just happens. All we have is to let our ears be our guide and let the brain naturally control the body to make the sounds we are looking.
Think of how many of us would like to sound and play as well as you, even to be at the level the first 5 minutes you touched the horn after the layoff. I know I would.
There is so much good in the worst of us,
And so much bad in the best of us,
That it hardly behooves any of us
To talk about the rest of us.
Edward Wallis Hoch, Marion (Kansas) Record
(1849 - 1925)
Hi Rowuk,
It's good news to hear that you're up and running again. Isn't it amazing that if a person does they're best to follow good mechanics, it's easier to get back in the saddle after some time off. Just think, after your medical sabbatical, you might have new and different thoughts on how to approach things (no joke). Your time off might end up being a blessing. If you're like me, if I'm not playing, I'm thinking about playing. One thing I know for sure. It drives me crazy when I can't play. Maybe trumpet should be a schedule CIII class drug. I'll have to ask the Gman about this.
Many would have given up so it's good to hear your back at it. Bravo!!
I have the CATscans wit a viewer to visualize the problem. PM me.
Greg, yes it is all about the USAGE of the air. The larger quantity due to the freed up lung does mean that less effort is required to fill up. that means lower tension-especially before long phrases.
Whenever I feel blue, I start breathing again.

Appointment was pretty fantastic!!
I think it's a little odd though, they want to change my due date to a whole week earlier, but only bcs that's based on my lmp, and they don't think it was enough off of my lmp to have changed it to begin with. So now they are officially saying Feb 23, which is early, if you ask me. But who knows. This baby will come when it wants! lol
AND they wanted their OWN dating ultrasound, so they ended the appt with a quick little look!!
Little bean was measuring 8 weeks 4 days, heartbeat was 186 AND we saw him or her moving!! It was so exciting! Everything looks wonderful in there!!
We scheduled a nuchal scan for Aug 20. Can't wait for more pics of this little sweetie!

Volume 80, Issue 10, October 2009
Spinning biodisks have advantages that make them attractive for specialized biochip applications. The two main classes of spinning biodisks are microfluidic disks and bio-optical compact disks (BioCD). Microfluidic biodisks take advantage of noninertial pumping for lab-on-a-chip devices using noninertial valves and switches under centrifugal and Coriolis forces to distribute fluids about the disks. BioCDs use spinning-disk interferometry, under the condition of common-path phase quadrature, to perform interferometric label-free detection of molecular recognition and binding. The optical detection of bound molecules on a disk is facilitated by rapid spinning that enables high-speed repetitive sampling to eliminate noise through common-mode rejection of intensity fluctuations and extensive signal averaging. Multiple quadrature classes have been developed, such as microdiffraction, in-line, phase contrast, and holographic adaptive optics. Thin molecular films are detected through the surface dipole density with a surface height sensitivity for the detection of protein spots that is approximately 1 pm. This sensitivity easily resolves a submonolayer of solid-support immobilized antibodies and their antigen targets. Fluorescence and light scattering provide additional optical detection techniques on spinning disks. Immunoassays have been applied to haptoglobin using protein A/G immobilization of antibodies and to prostate specific antigen. Small protein spots enable scalability to many spots per disk for high-throughput and highly multiplexed immonoassays.
The HelCat dual-source plasma device80(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3233938View Description Hide Description
The HelCat (Helicon-Cathode) device has been constructed to support a broad range of basic plasma science experiments relevant to the areas of solar physics, laboratory astrophysics, plasma nonlinear dynamics, and turbulence. These research topics require a relatively large plasma source capable of operating over a broad region of parameter space with a plasma duration up to at least several milliseconds. To achieve these parameters a novel dual-source system was developed utilizing both helicon and thermionic cathodesources.Plasma parameters of and allow access to a wide range of collisionalities important to the research. The HelCat device and initial characterization of plasma behavior during dual-source operation are described.
A magneto-optic probe for magnetic fluctuation measurements80(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3238509View Description Hide Description
Results from a proof-of-principle experiment are presented that demonstrate it is possible to construct a completely optical, robust, and compact probe capable of spatially resolved measurements of magnetic fieldfluctuations smaller than 1 G over a frequency range of 1 Hz–8 MHz in a plasma. In contrast to conventional coil probes, the signal strength is independent of fluctuation frequency and the measurement technique is immune to electrostatic pickup. The probe consists of a high Verdet constant crystal, two polarizers,optical fibers, and a photodetector.
Descriptions of a linear device developed for research on advanced plasma imaging and dynamics80(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3239405View Description Hide Description
The research on advanced plasma imaging and dynamics (RAPID) device is a newly developed linear electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasma device. It has a variety of axial magnetic field profiles provided by eight water-cooled magnetic coils and two dc power supplies. The positions of the magnetic coils are freely adjustable along the axial direction and the power supplies can be operated with many combinations of electrical wiring to the coils. A 6 kW 2.45 GHz magnetron is used to produce steady-state ECR plasmas with central magnetic fields of 875 and/or 437.5 G (second harmonic). The cylindrical stainless steel vacuum chamber is 300 mm in diameter and 750 mm in length and has eight radial and ten axial ports including 6-in. and 8-in. viewing windows for heating and diagnostics. Experimental observation of ECR plasmaheating has been recently carried out during the initial plasma operation. The main diagnostic systems including a 94 GHz heterodyne interferometer, a high-resolution 25 channel one-dimensional array spectrometer, a single channel survey spectrometer, and an electric probe have been also prepared. The RAPID device is a flexible simulator for the understanding of tokamak edge plasma physics and new diagnostic system development. In this work, we describe the RAPID device and initial operation results.
Development and testing of a fast Fourier transform high dynamic-range spectral diagnostics for millimeter wave characterization80(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3244091View Description Hide Description
A fast Fourier transform (FFT) based wide range millimeter wavediagnostics for spectral characterization of scattered millimeter waves in plasmas has been successfully brought into operation. The scattered millimeter waves are heterodyne downconverted and directly digitized using a fast analog-digital converter and a compact peripheral component interconnect computer. Frequency spectra are obtained by FFT in the time domain of the intermediate frequency signal. The scattered millimeter waves are generated during high power electron cyclotron resonance heating experiments on the TEXTORtokamak and demonstrate the performance of the diagnostics and, in particular, the usability of direct digitizing and Fourier transformation of millimeter wave signals. The diagnostics is able to acquire 4 GHz wide spectra of signals in the range of 136–140 GHz. The rate of spectra is tunable and has been tested between 200 000 spectra/s with a frequency resolution of 100 MHz and 120 spectra/s with a frequency resolution of 25 kHz. The respective dynamic ranges are 52 and 88 dB. Major benefits of the new diagnostics are a tunable time and frequency resolution due to postdetection, near-real time processing of the acquired data. This diagnostics has a wider application in astrophysics, earth observation, plasma physics, and molecular spectroscopy for the detection and analysis of millimeter waveradiation, providing high-resolution spectra at high temporal resolution and large dynamic range.
Retarding field energy analyzer for the Saskatchewan Torus–Modified plasma boundary80(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3247902View Description Hide Description
The retarding field energy analyzer (RFA) is a simple and reliable diagnostic technique to measure the ion temperature in the scrape-off layer and edge of magnetic fusion devices. Design and operation features of a single-sided (facing the ion flow)RFA for ion temperature measurements in the Saskatchewan Torus–Modified (STOR-M) tokamak are described. Its compact size allows RFAmeasurements without perturbing plasma significantly. Both ion and electron temperature have been measured by RFA in the STOR-M tokamak. A method is proposed to correct the effects of ion flow on the ion temperature using the simultaneously measuredMach number. The measured electron temperature is consistent with the previously reported Langmuir probe data. Abnormal behavior of the RFA has been observed in both ion and electron modes when RFA is inserted deep into the plasma.
Quartz crystal microbalance-based system for high-sensitivity differential sputter yield measurements80(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3249560View Description Hide Description
We present a quartz crystal microbalance-based system for high sensitivity differential sputter yield measurements of different target materials due to ion bombardment. The differential sputter yields can be integrated to find total yields. Possible ion beam conditions include ion energies in the range of 30–350 eV and incidence angles of 0°–70° from normal. A four-grid ion optics system is used to achieve a collimated ion beam at low energy and a two-grid ion optics is used for higher energies (up to 750 eV). A complementary weight loss approach is also used to measure total sputter yields. Validation experiments are presented that confirm high sensitivity and accuracy of sputter yield measurements.

Work resumes on Whitefish Bay apartments
Construction work has resumed on a Whitefish Bay apartment development after a roughly four-month delay caused by the harsh winter.
Mandel Group Inc. is in "full construction mode" on Beaumont Place, said Richard Lincoln, senior vice president of development. Beaumont Place will feature three buildings totaling 83 upscale units on a site behind the Fox-Bay Cinema building, north of E. Silver Spring Drive and east of N. Santa Monica Blvd.
The development will include street-level public parking spaces beneath the apartments. The first group of 64 spaces will be available by mid-July, with additional spaces available by mid-September, Lincoln said.
Beaumont Place's first apartments will be available by January 2015, he said, with the remaining units completed by March 2015.
The apartments, ranging from one to three bedrooms, will rent for about $1,500 to $3,200 a month and target North Shore empty nesters.

Common Council rejects apartment high-rise behind Goll House
A proposed $55 million 27-story apartment tower for Milwaukee's east side has been rejected by the Common Council.
The council on Tuesday voted 10-5 to support the project, falling two votes short of the supermajority needed for approval. The zoning change needed 12 votes because a protest petition was signed by enough adjacent property owners, said Ald. Ashanti Hamilton, council president.
The opponents were Ald. Robert Bauman, whose district includes the site, along with aldermen Cavalier Johnson, Mark Borkowski, Jose Perez and Tony Zielinski.

LA Redoute- I'm not really a 'catalogue shopper', but I had tried 'Choice for You' catalogue on 2 previous occasions and they were good.
I thought i'd order 2 items on La Redoute. unfortunately it was a nightmare! After 2 weeks they decided one of the items was out of stock permanently, and the order took about a month and a half to arrive. It was left in the recycle bin outside my house!!!!!!!!!
The next day I returned the item as I didn't even want to touch it. I'm still waiting for a… Read Full Review

I have been a customer at La Redoute for more than 3 years. The quality of the clothing is brilliant! The prices are reasonable too.
The delivery service could not be worse. I ordered a pair of tennis shoes in January 2005, and I only received them in mid-March, when I was told that the expected delivery time was within a week!
Overall their items are so cool, and much cheaper than other catalogues and shops… Read Full Review

Placed an order with La Redoute via internet for £130.00 on 20th June 05. Received confirmation of placed order. Emailed them 13th July to find out where order had got to, had reply that someone would contact me, they never did. 18th July phoned them, explained everything, operator less than interested she just insisted I had not placed an order; I keep asking why then have I got confirmation of order in my hand, got nowhere, and gave up. Will never do business again. Oh! Previous order left in… Read Full Review

La Redoute www.redoute.co.uk - We bought 2 lots of furniture - 6 wooden 'Cubes' and a pine bedbase.
3 of the six cubes arrived either damaged because the packaging had failed to protect them or they were very poorly made. We ordered 3 more.
La Redoute sent their courier to collect the rejects. He has a Nissan Micra. We waited a further week before DHL collected them.
The 3 three replacements arrived, of which 1 was damaged. We decided to send the lot back. La Redoute sent their courier with… Read Full Review

I have to admit it: I love La Redoute's product. So I have tried and tried to make my relationship with them work. But after four consecutive failed orders, I have met every kind of customer service and sales bungle: order mismanagement (they sent only one pillow sham when I ordered four); loss of items; incorrect information on the website (stock listed as available when it isn't); kind but incompetent staff (they could not find my order, or figure out who I was); invasion of privacy (they… Read Full Review

La Redoute Clothing Catalogue: If you want to return items to La Redoute that dont fit/arrived too late/just don't like? forget it! It seems to me that La Redoute does not fully understand how the mail order returns policy works!

Drawing their attention to their '14 days approval period, during which all customers… Read Full Review

La Redoute is French fashion at it's best. Just a little bit different from most popular UK catalogues.
As well as the normal clothes catalogue it has a catalogue for 'En plus' for the sizes over 16 and 'Tall Is Me' for the taller lady.
Prices are sometimes a little bit high but I usually wait for the Winter and Summer sales where you get as much as 60% off.
The service I have found to be very good and if I have had a querie about something or other it has been cleared up quickly.

Do NOT do business with La Redoute. I was given the wromg date of when my order was shipped, I felt the East Coast call center was rude, I've been waiting for my order for 15 days and it hasn't even shipped yet. 3 of the pieces I ordered aren't even in stock anymore. What a waste, I am going to cancel, it's not worth dealing with them, especially now that the best pieces are unavailable… Read Full Review

I have been using La-Redoute for a few years now & over-all have had a positive relationship with the company. I order via my account & then pay in full with a credit card & so have never had any billing problems. Some of the customer service peeps can be a little on the slow side but you get that with any company. I did feel that quality levels did dip last year (2003) but the stuff recently has been better.
Summary - if you can cope with a delivery schedule of 1-2 weeks, then you'll be happy… Read Full Review

I have spent a lot of money with La Redoute this year. I would like to spend a lot more but I'm not going to give them another penny. I had £29 outstanding on my account. They can't tell me what specific item(s) it's for and I'm fed up of asking so I've paid it. But hell'll freeze over before I pay the £15 they've added because they say I'm late paying because I've waited so long for them to sort this out (which they haven't).
I wish they would stop sending me special deals and money off… Read Full Review

In short, DO NOT BUY from La Redoute. I have never had a worse experience in my life with so-called customer services representatives. They were consistently unhelpful, and when they (or the postal service) lost my cheque, they tried to charge me money on interest. Upon writing to them, I enclosed proof that I had sent the said cheque, yet they are harping on that I didn't pay them. I have spoken to them, written to them and emailed them, and none of them are prepared to do anything about… Read Full Review

I ordered an item in February from La Redoute, they never once attempted to deliver it to me, after about £10 of phone calls and 5 re-orders later the item was sold out because the season had changed from winter to summer!! That's how long it took! Eventually I was told the courier wouldn't deliver my item because (and I quote the 'helpline' person) "The didn't want to deliver it". Upon asking for the name of the courier I was told they couldn't give it to me.
