An anonymous donor makes a $9.2 million donation to the University of Hawaii, one of the largest individual gifts ever given.
New students will be helped by the generous contribution and so will the school's standing as a top research university.
At UH's Lyon Arboretum, the lush landscape, fragrant flowers and towering trees are reminders of Hawaii's natural history.
"This represents real Hawaii to me, the way it used to be before all the explorers came here and disturbed the natural beauty," said Antone Salel, a visitor from California.
Ninety percent of the island's native species are not found anywhere else in the world, but Hawaii's unique plants are also some of the most endangered. Three-hundred-fifty species are currently threatened with extinction. So, arboretum volunteers and staff spend their days growing more of the precious plants.
Now, with the large donation, they will get more than just seed money for much needed future research.
Part of the gift will toward a new and bigger lab. It will store and safeguard rare and even extinct species, that could one day be used to restore native plant populations.
"It's amazing when people give back," said University of Hawaii Foundation President Donna Vuchinich.
And more residents are giving back. The University of Hawaii has seen an increase in donations now because of possible fiscal changes coming up in the new year.
"All sizes of donations are making an impact in adding great value to the expertise and opportunities for students and facility at UH," said Vuchinich.
Along with encouraging new growth at the Lyon Arboretum, the latest contribution will provide scholarships to Hawaii's community college students moving into a four-year university.
Things are also looking up for the Institute for Astronomy, one of four other departments receiving money to keep the University of Hawaii aiming high academically.
"The state funding and tuition funding helps maintain the overall operations, but if you want to make that next level of excellence private donations make all the difference and this one will," said UH Vice President John Morton.
Money will also go to the construction of the new Culinary Institute of the Pacific at Diamond Head.
While the donor is anonymous now, his identity will be revealed after his death when the signature restaurant at the new facility will be named after him.

Time is running out for Tesoro to find a buyer for its refinery.
If that doesn''t happen soon, 200 workers stand to lose their jobs.
Tesoro is working to help place its workers, by organizing a job fair.
And Tuesday afternoon, the labor department's rapid response team began meeting with refinery employees to explain the in's and out's of unemployment.
"They are not laid off yet but this is good we like to work with them early on," said Elaine Young administrator of the labor department's workforce division.
The state has also reached out to to Sears who says 327 workers could be affected by a decision to close its Ala Moana Center store in June-- months earlier than originally announced.
"We will have to wait to find out more about what their needs will be" said Young.
That includes determining who qualifies for unemployment and whether they are interested in future full-time or part-time work.
While the labor team moves to respond to the planned layoffs, many of the programs to help displaced workers rely on federal funds.
With sequestration looming, those programs could face cuts.
"We will definitely be affected and if you talk to my director he will tell you that 86 to 87 percent of our program is federally funded," said Young.
That sets up an awkward scenario, workers who help people who lose their jobs are now worried about their own jobs.
In Young's division alone, that's 106 people.
The department can't say exactly how many positions could be eliminated.
The administration set aside $25 million as a contingency for the across-the- board cuts.
State budget director Kalbert Young said departments who are in line for cuts are being asked to send in their budget requests by next week.

The Monroe County Sheriff's Office says they're looking for a man who attempted to abduct a woman after being involved in a vehicle crash with her Monday morning on County Highway O just north of Destiny Ave. in the Township of Lincoln.
The suspect is described as a white man, possibly age 18 to 25 with short spiky hair. Authorities say he was also described as wearing a white, zip-up hooded sweatshirt, blue jeans and boots.
The Monroe County Sheriff's Office said after the crash, the man tried to force the woman of the other vehicle into his car. The woman was able to escape and ran to a nearby house to get help by no one answered the door. She was able to get help from another vehicle that drove by, authorities said.
Earlier that morning, Tomah police received a report of a person in a vehicle described like the one the suspect drove during he hit-and-run incident. Police say a man pulled in behind her on Flicker Road wanting directions and then wanted her to show him where. The man made a sexual comment to the woman as she was walking away from the man and then he left, police said. Police are not sure if this incident is related to the hit-and-run, but the vehicle description was similar.
Because the man has not been found, police were still following leads Tuesday.
"This is not something that happens every day, and it's a concern for us," Monroe County Sgt. Ronald Rader said. "We have officers in the area now, and they're trying to follow up with some leads as far as similar vehicle descriptions."
Later that day, Tomah police recovered a stolen vehicle. Tomah police say the 1998 silver, 4-door Ford Taurus had extensive damage to the driver and passenger sides. The sheriff's office believes that the stolen vehicle that police recovered is probably the same vehicle from the crash/attempted kidnapping incident.
Jessalyn Johnson, the owner of the Taurus, said she woke up Monday morning to an empty driveway.
"That night I thought I heard my car start, but I didn't think much about it," she said Tuesday.
Her vehicle had some damage to the passenger side door, scrapes that police believe were part of the hit-and-run accident, but overall, Johnson considers herself fortunate that nothing worse happened.
"I'm lucky, and hopefully I'm going to keep on being lucky," she said.
Johnson said this is the second time her car has been broken into.
If you have any information about the suspect or the incidents, contact the Monroe County Sheriff's Department at (608) 269-2117 or the Tomah Police Department (608) 374-7400.

Trial addresses reliability of blood alcohol testingBy Eric Blaisdell
STAFF WRITER | February 26,2013A trial got under way Monday in a case that helped prompt the Legislature to change who oversees the machines that are used to measure blood alcohol content in drunken driving cases.
Brian N. Grenier, 52, of East Calais, is facing a felony charge the third time he has been charged with driving under the influence in Washington County criminal court in Barre. He could receive a maximum sentence of five years.
The trial started with former Washington County Sheriffs Deputy Nathan Wolfe testifying that he pulled Grenier over in May 2010 for a broken headlight.
Wolfe said he smelled alcohol coming from Greniers vehicle and that Grenier admitted he had been drinking.
Wolfe testified that Grenier told him after he was arrested, Im screwed. Grenier also tried to negotiate his way out of the drunken driving charge and talked about how embarrassing the charge would be to his family.
Grenier was taken to the Washington County Sheriffs Department in Montpelier, and a breath test was administered using a DataMaster DMT. Grenier recorded a 0.172 percent blood alcohol content, well over the legal limit to drive of 0.08. It is that machine and breath test that are really on trial in this case.
In the process of defending the case, Greniers lawyer, David Sleigh, said he discovered that the machines law enforcement around the state had been using to administer breath tests were not being properly maintained and were giving out faulty data that could have been used for wrongful convictions.
The sources for Sleighs claims were two women who worked for the Department of Health as state chemists who had submitted complaints to their supervisors that the DataMasters were not being properly maintained, sometimes purposefully. Darcy Richardson, who no longer works for the state, submitted statements for the case saying as much, and Amanda Bolduc, who is still a state chemist, testified Monday about what was happening in the lab.
Because of the revelations about people possibly being wrongfully convicted, the Legislature moved the states alcohol testing program in March 2012 from the Department of Health to the Department of Public Safety, where others could scrutinize the information the program collected and the process could be more transparent so as to keep it honest.
In court Monday, Bolduc was introduced as a witness for the state, testifying about how the DataMasters function, about the process of determining blood alcohol content, and how effective the machines are.
On cross examination, Sleigh grilled Bolduc on several topics including when the DataMasters were purchased and what issues the state ran into when first using the machines such as one releasing a puff of smoke when it was first turned on. Sleigh also asked Bolduc to talk about the opinions she had expressed during the period from February to November 2010, and where she documented her concerns about what one technician was doing or not doing.
As part of the evidence for the trial, Sleigh submitted an email Bolduc had sent to the lab director in 2010 in which she said the integrity of the program was in jeopardy. Bolduc said lab technician Steve Harnois was engaging in unethical behavior to get the machines to pass their internal testing to make sure the DataMasters were working properly before a breath test was conducted. In the email, Bolduc wrote that because of Harnois alleged behavior, she would have a hard time testifying in court as to the reliability of the test results.
In all the talk about the issues the DataMasters in Vermont have had, little was disclosed or discussed about the particular machine used by the Sheriffs Department in Montpelier in terms of whether it had been tampered with or was malfunctioning. In fact, Bolduc testified that the machine was working properly at the time it was used for Greniers breath test.
Harnois was investigated by the Department of Health and cleared of any malfeasance. He no longer works for the state.
Harnois also testified in the trial Monday Sleigh characterized him as a hostile witness and did not offer much information concerning the investigation of which he was the subject, saying he did not recall many of the answers to Sleighs questions.
The trial resumes today with Sleigh expected to call two witnesses to testify in support of the defense.

Preservation of African-American Cemeteries
South Carolina SC African-Americans Grave Matters – Introduction Preservation of African-American Cemeteries
The differences between "white" and "black" graveyards often result in serious damage, loss, or legal entanglements.
Profit margins may encourage "underestimating" the size of the graveyard, or even ignoring its existence altogether. At least one court case in South Carolina has focused on the size of an African-American cemetery. In another situation a property owner apparently moved all of the grave markers to make it more difficult to identify the cemetery.
Cemeteries may not be recognized until construction has already begun. This was the case in the Mount Pleasant cemetery, although here the construction crews acknowledged their responsibility and immediately stopped as soon as the cemetery was found.
Efforts may be made to have the cemetery declared "abandoned," allowing its more convenient and expeditious removal. The legal definition of "abandoned," however, fails to understand the nature of African-American cemeteries, their use, and their importance to the community.
Although South Carolina has laws protecting cemeteries, they are unevenly applied. Many law enforcement agencies and coroners don't seem to have the manpower or enthusiasm to aggressively protect cemeteries. Further, the expense of legal action is often great and may be too late to save fragile resources.
The King Cemetery in southern Charleston County provides an excellent case study. Situated on the edge of a proposed borrow pit and possible land fill, the cemetery was at first unrecognized by County government. Only when the cemetery was recognized archaeologically and recorded as a potentially significant archaeological site was the impact of the proposed project on the graves taken into account. Although documentary history was not found, the general location of the cemetery was shown on maps and one of the three individuals identified by stones in the cemetery could be found through death certificate records. This record not only identified the individual as African-American, but also revealed the name of the graveyard as the "King Cemetery."
Unfortunately, the views and information of the local community were never sought by the County – which missed an exceptional opportunity to involve the African-American population in the decision-making process. The County declared the cemetery "abandoned," failing to recognize that the local community was well aware of its presence and still had strong ties to the property. An article in the Charleston, South Carolina Coastal Times found that a local resident, Sarah Middleton, who is nearly 100 years old, vividly remembers walking in funeral processions to the King Cemetery. Other members of the local black community are equally aware of the cemetery and could point out its boundaries, where the fence used to stand, and even where the gates were which allowed access to the graveyard.
While archaeological techniques may be used to identify cemetery locations and the number of graves, this approach is not always appropriate. Like any other technique it can vary from leaving virtually no impact on the graveyard to highly intrusive.
Methods which leave little or no impact include searching for grave depressions, noting the location and distribution of grave goods and plantings, using a metal or fiberglass probe to help identify grave shafts, using a soil auger to study soil profiles, and using soil compaction testers, also known as penetrometers, to help gauge where graves may have been dug.
Slightly more intrusive is the use of limited hand excavation, cleaning small areas in the search for grave stains. This may be necessary to confirm the presence or absence of graves in particular areas. Such work can usually be done in a way that the character of the graveyard is not altered and that restoration is simple.
Some techniques, however, may cause extensive damage to the surrounding area. Examples of this include the large-scale stripping of soil with bulldozers to identify graves over a broad area. Most often used when the cemetery is to be completely moved, the removal of vegetation and the drastic alteration of landscape may be seen by many as damaging the sacredness of the spot. Others may legitimately see such stripping as unnecessary, especially when the cemetery is not to be moved, given the extensive oral history which is usually readily available.
The technique or techniques used should be approved by those who have ties with the cemetery. While it is appropriate for the archaeologist to offer suggestions, it is essential that the wishes and feelings of the descendants always be the guiding factor in cemetery research.

I taught at the Ortaokul in the village of Sultandagi which was the center of the Sultandagi township so the school took in students from neighboring villages, mostly in the nearby mountains (hence the name of the village). I had 500 plus students, taught 30 plus hours a week, six days a week. In the summer of 1967 I participated in the chicken project and taught at Middle East Technical University in Ankara. I've just been looking at pictures of my own village from an on-line site and apparently things have changed a great deal in 40 years. The electricity that was "gelecek"--coming--came and the only pictures of the old village square are now labeled "Eski Sultandagi"--old Sultandagi. It now appears to have a quite modern looking square with bright lights and cars parked everywhere. In my day only the doctor had a car (not counting the army vehicles). We used to jam 8 or so of us in to it and drive 70 kilometers to Afron to see a movie--everyone loved ziffer ziffer yedi (007 James Bond) movies. We did see movies in the village, Turk Mali--Turkish made--black and white affairs shown with the help of a handcranked generator. Sometimes the generator operator got so caught up in the movie that he forgot to crank and the movie slipped into slow motion. IThe village was pretty primitive, so much so that when the Peace Corps doctor and area coordinator came through they stayed in Afyon, taking me with them so I could take an actual shower. Ordinarily, I went to the village bath. I recall one night that one of the men sitting next to me pulled a knife from his towell and shouted, "If the U.S. gives us permission, we could be in Moscow in a week." Mostly, however, the villagers were very peaceful. One night I was invited by the grocer (his shop was the size of the average U.S. guest bedroom) to come to the Mosque. They symbolically washed by hair, hands and feet and I actually participated in the services. The next day practically everyone in the village stopped me in the street and thanked me for the respect I showed their religion. At the same time they realized that I was not a Muslim and that I was not expected to repeat the performance. Speaking of that grocer, I recall the day the first can opener arrived in the village. No one knew how to work it (there weren't that many canned goods in the village), so I opened one can at the store. Soon everyone wanted to open a can and within minutes every can in the store had been opened. I always wondered how much English my students actually ever learned, then one day some American tourists drove through the village, stopping at the grocers to pick up snacks. They were surrouned by my students who helped them and gave them directions in perfect English--better than I had ever seen in the classroom. After the Americans left, a villager standing in back of the crowd turned to me and said, "I imagine you could have helped them too." Once some U.S. soliders showed up in the village to hunt boars and asked if I could arrange for some villagers to act as brush beaters. They paid them more than most made in a month. Laughing one of them said to me, "These soldiers are paying us to clear our fields of the boars that constanctly menace us. What a deal!" The soldiers were so taken aback my conditions in the village that when they left they emptied out their backpacks and gave the contents to me. There are a hundred other stories but mostly I remember thinking that there was no real hardship and that I was incredibly lucky to be able to live as a Turk in such a village.

Elbow Optimism
After finishing my latest ballpark quest entry on Wrigley Field, I decided I'd better get off my butt and get a little exercise. Since it's a pretty nice day here (though still all depressing and brown), I went for a walk.
I must have looked pretty conflicted – I was wearing my Phillies World Series sweatjacket over a Detroit Tigers t-shirt, topped off with a Corpus Christi Hooks cap (it's a bad hair day).
Anyway, upon my return, I saw an update on Cole Hamels' elbow. Up till now, I have been avoiding mentioning it in my blog, employing my best "don't think about it and maybe it will go away" tactics.
The bottom line is that there is no structural damage. There is, however, inflammation, for which Hamels received an injection. He will also not throw for two days. Whether or not he will pitch Opening Day on April 5 is up in the air at this point.
I'd rather see him miss Opening Day but be healthy for the rest of the season. Opening Day is just one game. He will have plenty of other chances to be the Opening Day starter in his career.
Take care of that elbow, Cole!
(Hamels photo mine)
9 Comments
I hope he turns out to be fine. He is one of the great pitchers to enjoy watching pitching.
Red Sox Ramblings: http://thevendahhh.mlblogs.com
First of all, did you really take that picture of Hamels? It's fantastic! You must be relieved that his injury isn't serious in the sense that he needs surgery or a long layoff. Missing opening day is a tiny setback. You'll see.
Thanks Greg! When he is on his game, he is great to watch!
Jane, yes, I did take that one myself (we had pretty good seats that night). I agree, Opening Day is just one game, there's 161 more to go. Rather see him take the time to clear the problem up now, than to jeopardize the season.
I hope he gets better and missing Opening Day to be better for the majority of the season is much more important. Great picture! How are you not a professional photographer for some sports magazine?
Julia – thanks for the compliment!
Melissa – that would be my dream job! Too bad I didn't find this calling years ago, instead of majoring in something totally irrelevant to my life today. If only I could travel back in time…
That is a great photo you took!
Please read the questions and respond!
Hope he gets better. I have to agree with Melissa,missing opening day is better than missing half the season. Awesome pic!
Thanks, Babu and Canuck! In today's newspaper, Hamels sounded optimistic about his chances of being ready, but also realizing that if he is not, it is better to miss a start or two and be healthy for the rest of the season. It sounds like Brett Myers is a possibility if Hamels is not ready for Opening Day.

A state analysis of health care insurance under Hawaii's new exchange says rates compare favorably with other U.S. states.
The Insurance Division of the Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs says estimated rates in Honolulu and statewide are low compared with rates in studies by the Kaiser Family Foundation and Avalere Health.
Hawaii's insurance exchange opening Oct. 1 will offer four plans. It's designed to bring coverage to as many people as possible under President Barack Obama's federal health care overhaul. The law requires everyone in the country to buy health insurance by Jan. 1 or pay penalties.
The Insurance Division says rates for a 40-year-old Honolulu resident will average $217 per month. That would make Honolulu the third cheapest compared with rates in 18 cities in the Kaiser study.

The iceman cometh
No holiday season is complete without a visit to "Trains on Main" in Livingston Manor, NY (www.catskillartsociety.org), which debuted over the weekend, and is on display through the New Year. Conductor Charlie Irace has once again created a masterpiece in the gallery with his miniature recreation of the town, replete with local shops and architecture. A new collection of O&W lanterns is also showcased and an impressive collection of structures, boxcars and train memorabilia adds to the annual installation that resides at Catskill Art Society during the next few weeks. Irace works tirelessly to present "Trains on Main" every year and his efforts should (IMHO) be applauded. Observing the faces pressed against the frosty window brought a smile to my face, before Santa showed up to check his list, as members of The Mountain Tones Community Band entertained. Shop local, spend local, play local. Who needs a mall?

Baking powder is a raising agent that is commonly used in cake-making. It is made from an alkali…
- pinch of salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- edible food colouring - red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple, plus optional pink (see below)
For the icing
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 x 250g tubs cream cheese or mascarpone
- 350g icing sugar
Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Grease 2 x 20cm round sandwich tins and line the bases with baking parchment. Tip all the sponge ingredients, apart from the food colouring, into a mixing bowl, then beat with an electric whisk until smooth.
Working quickly, weigh the mixture into another bowl to work out the total weight, then weigh exactly half the mixture back into the mixing bowl. Pick 2 of your colours and stir a little into each mix. Keep going until you are happy with the colour – the colour of the batter now will be very similar to the finished cake, so be brave! Scrape the different batters into the tins, trying to spread and smooth as much as possible – but try not to waste a drop of the batter – a rubber spatula will help you. Bake on the same oven shelf for 12 mins until a skewer poked into the middle comes out clean.
Gently turn the cakes out onto a wire rack to cool. Wash the tins and bowls thoroughly, and start again from step 1 – this time using another 2 colours. Unless you're making the optional pink layer, repeat one more time to get 6 sponges, all of different colours. Leave them all to cool.
To make the icing, very briefly beat the vanilla and cream cheese or mascarpone with an electric whisk until smooth. Sift in the icing sugar and gently fold in with a spatula. Be careful – the more you work it, the runnier it will get, increasing the chance of splitting.
Smear a little icing on your cake stand or plate – just a splodge to stick the first sponge. Start with the red, then spread with some icing right to the very edge. Repeat, sandwiching on top the orange, yellow, green, blue and finally purple sponges. Spread the remaining icing thickly all over the sides and top of the cake. For more tips and expert advice on how to create the perfect rainbow cake, check out our tips, below.
How to create the perfect colours
To make sure you've got a good balance of colours, test your colourings in a little water first – I tried over 20 shades before I found my favourite combination! Find out more about colourings
Tips for a professional finish
When you make each batch, keep a tiny blob of batter back – then, as you dye each future batter, you can make sure the colour strengths match. A palette knife, which has a long, rounded and flexible blade, makes icing big cakes much easier, as the blade is long enough to scrape the whole side at once. You can buy them in cookshops. A turntable really helps if you're trying to ice a big cake. If you don't have one, use a cake stand instead.
Which colours did we use
We used SK Professional Paste Food Colour and Quality Food Colour paste ranges from squires-shop.com. Buy pots in Red, Orange, Sunflower, Fern, Hyacinth, Purple and Pink. From the supermarket, try Dr Oetker gel food colours in Bright Red, Neon Orange, Sunshine Yellow, Lime Green, Sky Blue, Ultra Violet and Hot Pink. Read our top tips on colouring.
Trimming your sponges
We've kept the sponges as light as possible so they may be slightly rounded when they come out of the oven. You may want to trim them just a shade, to flatten so they all stack neatly together. We've answered your FAQs on sponges here.
Make an extra layer
My recipe makes six sponge layers, but you can make one extra layer by halving the cake quantities and baking a single sponge dyed pink – use this as your seventh layer. It's not strictly necessary, the cake will still look fabulous with six – but why not! Click here for more tips on sponges.

I wanted to reassure anyone who is thinking of making this cake but is put off by the reviews. I made it for a 30th birthday party and I was overjoyed at the result. I am by no means an expert, in fact I only started baking six months ago, so it's not particular expertise that made this work. The sponge is denser than cupcake/Victoria sponge, but was still moist and tasted good - and all the cakes were flat when they came out of the oven. This is what I did, in case it helps anyone:
* when I made the sponges, rather than throw it all in together I creamed the butter and sugar then added eggs one at a time, followed each time by a bit of the flour and scraping down the bowl after each addition.
* I used Wilton Icing Paste colours from Lakeland. They are just as excellent in sponge as they are in icing, you need only the tiniest amount to make beautiful colours - I probably used no more than a quarter of a teaspoon of colour in each sponge, if that. Dip a knife into the colour, then into the batter. It will surprise you how vibrant the colours are.
* I baked each sponge layer for 10 mins - they were done by then, 12 mins would have been too long in my oven despite using the temp suggested and not having a fan. I think those that have ended up with rubbery sponge may have overcooked by accident.
* rather than cream cheese icing (which I love but is hard to transport and this cake had to survive a car journey!) I used the chocolate buttercream recipe from Nigella's chocolate fudge cake recipe - it's my favourite - it has real dark chocolate in rather than cocoa powder :-) it went really well with the cake and stuck the layers together nicely.
It was such a lovely feeling hearing everyone say "oooooooooh" when the cake was cut, and I got so many compliments. Don't worry - make this cake and trust the recipe!
I made this cake for my daughters first birthday party and I was thrilled with the result, as were the guests.
Firstly, I did a trial run to see if I'd need to make any alterations to the recipe before making the real deal. I did a four layer version (two batches of batter) using Dr.O gel food colourings. These were not suitable for a vibrant cake! I used the entire tube, plus adding some liquid food colouring and it was just not sufficient. After this trial run, I purchased a set of Wilton food colourings and these turned out perfectly.
The cake is moist, and though a heavier and more dense sponge than a classic Victoria, it was delicious all the same. I was glad I used the cream cheese frosting instead of a buttercream as I think it'd have made it too sweet, but the cream cheese balanced it wonderfully.
From my personal experience with using this recipe, I would suggest allowing more time than 3 hours for baking this particular cake. It takes time to weigh everything out, achieve the correct colour, wash everything up and to allow cooling time.
Also, once I had baked each of the cakes, I leveled them out all to the same height, wrapped them in clingfilm and froze them. I found it much easier to ice them this way. The night before my daughters party, I unwrapped them all and iced them before putting the cake in the fridge. Then, I took the cake out of the fridge to finish defrosting before putting candles on it and slicing it at around 3pm.
Extremely pleased with this recipe, will use again!
Great recipe! I enjoy baking but I admit I am not the best. I was little put off by all the negative comments but I had a go. Looked and tasted great. I have three tips.
+make the icing first and put it in the fridge.
+to add flavour I added lemon zest which was really successful.
+small slices!!!it is very filling but delicious. SMALL SLICES
Firstly - what colours did I use? I used Wilton colour pastes - about 1/4 of a jar for each layer - which made for a really vibrant colour without any bitter taste.
The cake mixture was great I thought. It is quite dense - nothing like a Victoria sponge - but if you smooth it well when you put the batter in the tin, then you will get a fairly flat cooked cake. It does not dome in the middle as it rises in the oven. The denseness of the cake also means that it lasts well and does not go stale quickly.
The place where I really came a cropper was the icing and if I did it again then I would use a butter cream. I would say that you have to put the mixed icing in the fridge for at least 3 hours before you have the remotest change of getting a 'thick' layer over the side of the cake. Also with the cream cheese icing you do need then to keep the cake cool - which as it is s big necessitated removing a shelf from my fridge to fit it in!
On the whole a great success though.
After reading the comments I sought out Sugar Flair gels at a local craft shop as I could only find Dr Oetker colours at the supermarkets. Other than that, and using normal buttercream icing instead of the mascarpone one I followed the recipe to the letter. It took a good few hours but was not in anyway complicated, the finished cake looked and tasted amazing.
This was a fairly straight forward recipe although I did add more sugar than suggested and had to cook for a lot longer ( but I think this was due to not have a fan assisted oven) I used the colour pastes that were suggested on the tips page they worked a dream - I got vibrant colours with altering the taste! Thanks for the recipe and the tips!
I was disappointed with this, especially after the amount of time spent making it. The cakes took much longer than 15 minutes to bake, the whole thing was very heavy and dense and the colourings (I used Dr Oetker) gave it a very strange taste. Although the colours themselves were muted, the cake looked really impressive when we cut into it, it's such a shame the taste doesn't deliver.
Just thought I'd post to say that this recipe is excellent! After reading many of the negative comments I wasn't sure whether or not to go ahead and make it but trusted that the Good Food team would not have a recipe that didn't work.
It does work! The only difference that I made was that I ran out of plain flour after that first batch of cakes and so substituted Self Raising for the next ones. The cakes came out just as well. The colour was good, they were well risen but flat on top and needed no trimming. Layered up they looked amazing and tasted just as good as they looked.
I made this for my daughters' 21st Birthday and she thought it was brilliant.
I see that some people are saying to make a Victoria sponge instead but I don't think this would work as well. Victoria sponge has a totally different texture to these. These cakes are more squidgy and dense - but still good!
Please try it - they taste super!
One change I made to the cheese frosting is to make a normal buttercream first with butter and icing sugar and only then add the cream cheese. This results in a more stable icing that does NOT go runny.
If I could give this recipe a 0 then I would. I made this twice as i thought I must have gone wrong but it tastes horrible. Very dense and doughy. I like to think I can bake and have made many cakes in my life but this recipe just didn't work. I would recommend that you adapt a victoria sponge recipe and go from there.

Ohio Northern University pharmacy student crowned Miss Minnesota
Ohio Northern University student Rebecca Yeh, a third-year pharmacy major from Nissawa, Minn., has been crowned Miss Minnesota 2013. Yeh represented the Detroit Lakes, Minn., area as Miss Northwest before being crowned Miss Minnesota 2013 at the Eden Prairie High School Performing Arts Center on June 15.
Yeh recently completed her second-year year at ONU, where she is preparing for a career as a clinical pharmacist. Accepted into the highly selective doctorate of pharmacy program, and appearing on the Dean's List for the past two semesters, she is a "triple A" scholarship recipient (academics, arts and athletics) and an accomplished violinist.
At the Miss Minnesota competition, Yeh won not only the preliminary talent award, but also the preliminary swimsuit award and overall interview award. She has been a self-employed violin instructor since the age of 13 and performs regularly as a soloist, as a member of a string trio, and occasionally as part of a string quartet.
Yeh's service platform is titled "A Voice for Autism," which was inspired by her 22-year-old brother, Phil, who was diagnosed with autism at the age of 4. As Miss Minnesota 2013, Yeh will speak and educate people about early detection and public awareness of this disorder, which affects 1.5 million individuals. She also will be the official spokesperson for Children's Miracle Network and for the work they do in Minnesota.
The Miss Minnesota Scholarship Pageant is an official preliminary to the Miss America Pageant. Yeh will compete for the Miss America crown in Atlantic City, N.J., this September.

PREVIOUSLY…Dordt lost to Nebraska Wesleyan 28-0 last Saturday after trailing 7-0 at halftime. Two early scores in the fourth quarter pushed a 14-0 lead to 28-0 and that's how it ended.

A Jessie Riley 69 yard run gave the Raiders the lead for good and Paul Hutson capped an 82 yard drive with a six yard plunge with 3:44 left to take a 30-22 lead. Concordia had a chance to tie it after a 57 yard drive of their own with 1:59 left but a two point conversion was no good, preserving the win for Northwestern. Riley and Hutson had 116 and 115 yards respectively and Bartman did not play. Bloemendaal was 16-28 for 172 yards passing and Green had five catches for 52 yards and Byker three for 32.

Couple's visits cause concerns
DANVILLE — Vermont State Police say they have received reports of a suspicious couple visiting residences in the Danville and Walden areas, but the couple could be simply conducting a survey.
State police say they received a complaint Saturday about a black man, approximately 6 feet 3 inches tall, 200 pounds, 30 to 50 years old, and a white woman with dark brown hair who arrived at a residence, asked questions and left in a silver-colored vehicle with out-of-state plates.
Another complaint Sunday described the same couple leaving pamphlets about the New England Homecare Union and United Healthcare Workers East-Vermont.
State police say several out-of-state companies have been conducting surveys in Vermont recently and it's believed that is what the couple was doing. State police are still trying to identify the couple, however, and verify their business.
State police advise residents to ask for identification from any strangers who arrive at their homes.MORE IN This Just In

Vt. man accused of NH stabbing found 'restorable'July 29,2013The Associated Press
NORTH HAVERHILL, N.H. - A psychologist has declared a Vermont man charged with fatally stabbing a private school trustee in a New Hampshire hotel lobby "not competent, but restorable."
Rodney Hill of West Danville, Vt., said he was going through a divorce and was angry over an email from his boss when he stabbed White Mountain School trustee Catherine Houghton on Jan. 28 at the Hampton Inn in Littleton. They were strangers.
The Caledonian Record reports (http://bit.ly/149TjAR) Dennis Becotte, a clinical psychologist with the state Office of the Forensic Medical Examiner, diagnosed Hill in February. A second psychologist was scheduled to examine Hill on July 11.
A judge granted a motion to seal Hill's competency evaluation and related documents on July 22.

Four years in the making, this documentary attempts to bring light to musicians, artists, philosophers, and intellectuals including those populations who are largely ignored. For these beloved denizens of Bolinas, California, they seem to always find themselves at a juncture balancing their ranking and inner turmoil in society with their quest for freedom. Illustrating a celebration of the human spirit, you cannot ignore the essence of the unique and genuine relationships this extraordinary fine art painter has with everyone in town and beyond.

Watch Sports: Leonard Football Camp Returning
The way Brian Leonard figures it, north country football players just need a chance to be seen by the right people.
The former Gouverneur and Rutgers star, now signed to the NFL's Tampa Bay Buccaneers, told 7 News he had the advantage of attending summer camps where he was seen by coaches and got extra training.
"There's good athletes in northern New York. You just don't have good exposure up there," he said.
For a fifth year, Leonard's camp brings together local players and coaches from around the country.

Candidate Christopher Payne, a 33-year-old correctional officer for the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, did return his answers.
Florette "Libby" Spires, a 47-year-old certified public accountant, did not return her answers to the questions.
Payne's answers are listed below:
1. What do you believe is the most important issue facing the City Council at present?
Payne: The water bond issue is by far the most important issue facing the City Council at present. For the tax payers to spend $15.3 million on a water bond that may not be the best option for this city is a very important issue.
2. Are you in favor of the $15.3 million city water bond issue proposal? Why?
Payne: I oppose the water bond. I do not feel that a $15.3 million water bond is the way to fix the problem. A property tax increase is not the way to fix Beeville's water problems. I feel that a water rate increase would be a fair way to ensure that those using the water would be the ones paying for the needed updates to the water system. I also am unsure that the drilling of the proposed wells are the best way to correct the problem. I know that some are saying that within two years Beeville will be without water if the bond fails but I think the city should take time and do a study and look at all the options available and then allow the voters to decide.
3. Do you think using hotel and motel occupancy tax funds to help the Texas Mile pay for $50 million liability insurance coverage is a wise use of that money? Should the city work more closely with the Chamber of Commerce in using HOT funds to promote upcoming events?
Payne: No, I do not think that the hotel and motel occupancy tax fund should go to the Texas Mile to pay for $50 million liability insurance coverage. I don't think tax payers' money should be given to a private company to pay for their insurance. If they can't afford the insurance, then they should not be doing business.
Yes the city should work closely with the Chamber of Commerce in using HOT funds to promote upcoming events and to draw new business and events to the city of Beeville.
4. Do you support the use of hotel and motel occupancy tax funds to pay debt service on water projects for the city?
Payne: Yes, I support the use of hotel and motel occupancy tax funds to pay debt service on water projects for the city of Beeville.
5. What are your strengths and why do you think voters should select you over your opponent in the upcoming election?
Payne: My strengths are I will spend the taxpayer's money like it was my money, because it is my money. I will invest in long term solutions and not short term fixes. I will promote business growth. I believe I can add balance and value to city government. I have both enthusiasm and perspective. I will give each issue the critical thought and attention it requires and work hard to be the most responsive member of your city government. A vote for Payne is a vote for growth in business diversity, lower taxes, long term solutions to problems.

This seamlessly looping piece of music is just ideal for any kind of medieval themed film scene or video game. A memorable lute melody accompanied by some fidule, a flute and percussions like a tambourine. I also applied some special reverb that gives the overall impression of an outdoor capture. There are certain melodic parts in this piece that also gives it a Chinese feel – so it's actually also very suitable for any ancient Chinese video or game.
Please note that the actual WAV you buy is actually looping seamlessly without any gaps whereas the preview here is not really looping due to it's MP3 compression and the player used here.
Enjoy my music and please don't forget to rate my file in your download area after you've bought it!
Thank you very much!

Um… Why?
"Over the weekend, a 10-year-old Westchester, New York boy attempted to break the world record for
wearing the most pairs of underwear at one time."
–Hailey Eber, BlackBook
Obviously, the evolution of our species isn't always smooth.
Now, dear readers, I'm no scientist, but I am fairly certain that the same neurological misfirings of the human brain responsible for the abomination alluded to above, are the exact same neurological misfirings responsible for us thinking it's okay for the Tampa Bay Rays to wear powder blue jerseys… which are the exact same neurological misfirings that lead people to believe Rod Blagojevich is really just a nice guy who made a mistake.
Uh… yeah.
Sometimes my species embarrasses me.
So hate me… if you must. But please remember: unless you're George Brett, you only need to wear one set of undies.
And, oh yeah… don't hate me 'cuz I'm right.

Powder blue jerseys:
See this picture for explanation (works with every jersey…Rays, Phillies, Jays, etc) http://upnextinsports.com/2009/09/09/sports-picturesbaby-blue-is-a-good-color/#comments
Cici — My point exactly. Thank you.
Mimi — That child didn't ask for that… or maybe he did. I dunno.
Um…I actually like those powder blue jerseys 🙂
I'm with Joe. I kind of like the powder blue jerseys — on teams other than the Yankees. Didn't the Royals wear them too? And the Jays? Or am I confusing my shades of blue?
Joe???? NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And Jane, it was a bad idea in the 70s and 80s… how could it be a good idea now? LOL.
Well, I was part of the crowd who had the loudest longest scream in a stadium at Dodger Stadium. Haha. The Guinness Book of Records people were there to determine the record. My claim to fame.

$13.5 million buys prime downtown Boulder site
- published_in
- News Stories
Ten Eleven Pearl LLC, a local team led by Denver-based Nichols Partnership Inc., purchased the properties at 1048 Pearl St. and 1023 Walnut St. from Karlin Real Estate, a Los Angeles-based real estate investment and development group. The deal was announced Dec. 13.
Nichols Partnership's president, Randy Nichols, said his company has had an eye on the property for several years, and even had it under contract before Karlin purchased it in 2010 for $9 million.
"We think this is one of the best sites in Colorado. It's downtown Boulder, where everybody wants to be," Nichols said. "We've always had an interest in it, and we've kept in touch with Karlin.
Nichols said the project, which Karlin named Eleventh and Pearl, will be built "exactly" as Karlin planned. Karlin planned to demolish the existing buildings and a 175,000-square-foot mixed-use building with 125,000 square feet of Class A office and 50,000 square feet of retail and specialty-use space, according to a news release. The expected cost of the project is $80 million.
Eleventh and Pearl has been approved by the city after a site review process that resulted in three Planning Board meetings and revisions to the original design. The new owners plan to begin demolition and construction in the fourth quarter of 2013 and have the project complete by early or mid-2015.
Nichols declined to disclose the other investors, but he did say Boulder is well represented in the company.
"The majority of the equity is coming from Boulder-based organizations and investment firms," Nichols said. "This is very much a Boulder project."
Lynda Gibbons of Boulder-based Gibbons-White Inc. helped put together the deal and represented Karlin. She helped Karlin purchase the property in 2010 and was in charge of leasing the existing building and finding tenants for the future building. She will remain the broker, and Gibbons-White will manage the property.
The deal came together over several months, she said. In its early stages, a joint venture was a possibility, but that changed.
"It just came out in the end that it worked better for it not to be a joint venture," Gibbons said.
The new owners are trying to find tenants and have received a lot of interest, Gibbons said. A few letters of intent have been signed with prospective tenants, she said, but it is too early to sign leases.
For the office space, the ownership group is open to having a single large tenant or having multiple tenants, Nichols said. It hopes to capitalize on the lack of space downtown and Boulder's thriving startups.
"You have all these Boulder-based companies," Nichols said. "They start, grow up and become real companies, and when they get large enough, they have to move on. … This is a way of capturing some of those great companies."
Potential tenants for the retail space are a mix of local and national retailers, Gibbons said.
Shears Adkins Rockmore, a Denver-based architectural firm, and JVA, a Boulder-based engineering firm, will continue to provide design services.
Former owners Karlin Real Estate recently sold two other Boulder properties to local investors in a $5.1 million deal. The buildings were at 5450 Western Ave., a 25,432-square-foot building, and 1780 Conestoga St., a 24,898-square-foot building.
Karlin's approach is to buy existing and often underperforming properties, significantly upgrade them and then sell for a profit, Gibbons said. In buying the former Daily Camera site, Karlin was taking advantage of an unusual opportunity, Gibbons said.
"They felt this was a great value-add play," Gibbons said, "even though it didn't fit in the normal scope of their company."
Nichols said he kept his eye on the project expecting that Karlin would at some point want a partner or buyer once it completed the entitlement process.
Karlin's vice president, Vicky Canto, wrote in an email that the company remains active in Colorado, looking for new deals.
"We are actively looking for investment opportunities in Colorado and look forward to continuing to invest in such a great market," Canto wrote.

'Either you repeat the same conventional doctrines everybody is saying, or else you say something true, and it will sound like it's from Neptune.' - Noam Chomsky
My DH has been suggesting camel's milk for a little while. I had to overcome the 'instinctive' revulsion I felt towards it to consider giving it to Laith. It didn't take long once I did research on it. There was a tag on the bottle that said something to the effect of, "Camel's milk is closer to breast milk than any other animal milk because it contains theta-something globulin and [another math symbol]-something globulin."
The thing is, I've never liked milk by itself. I will drink some milks if they are in coffee but I will only have cow's milk in cereal. I'm trying to overcome these eating issues but I was an extremely picky eater for 2/3 of my life. I am much more adventurous with plants/herbs/veggies/fruits than I am with animal products.
We drink cow's milk and eat the animals we do in N. America because those animals were the first to be domesticated there. Had camels been domesticated long ago, then their meat and milk would be the norm for us.

You know, I have never been brave enough to even try goat's milk and that's readily available here in the US.
Just a tip for anyone who normally doesn't like milk, you may find that if you buy organic, non-hormone milk it might appeal better. I am not an "earth mother", either (tongue in cheek ...) just clarifying that I'm a city girl, I buy earth-killing bottled water, use disposable diapers, and whatever else, so I'm not suggesting the organic milk from any agenda. It's just that I truly notice a difference in the taste and texture of the organic/non-hormone milk from the other milk. I can tell the difference in a blindfolded taste test. Plus, it lasts longer before it goes bad. The only bad part is it costs at least twice as much But to me, it's worth it especially because I have, since giving birth, had major cravings for milk.
Doesn't mean you'll really like it, but I definitely think you'd be less grossed out with the organic stuff than the store brand.
Hi Andrea! I think you are referring to pasteurization in your most recent post. I personally think pasteurization is not a good thing for any milk, so raw camel's milk would definitely be better than pasteurized, IMO. OTOH, I recently read The Maker's Diet, which talks about the diet prescribed by God in the Bible. If you are inclined to follow the Bible, then you might be interested to know that it forbids the consumption of cloven-footed animals (and thus, I would assume, their milk as well) that do not have a hard hoof (can't remember the technical term). Just an interesting tidbit to note!
I thought pasteurization was a good thing, although I've never actually reasearched it. Why do you think it's bad? Just curious, and trying to make educated choices for my baby! Thanks!
To free us from the expectations of others, to give us back to ourselves - there lies the great, singular power of self-respect. ~Joan Didion
heres something that explains paserization its written about goats milk but cows milk is treated the same...
In India some children are given buffalo's milk too. I believe it is superior to cow's milk but I have never researched it myself. I think it has higher fat content. Not sure if I was ever given buffalo's milk.
A friend of mine used to have cows at home and they would supply milk to the residents of that area. This milk was not pasteruized. People dont use it directly though. They boil it first. This is common even today.
It is funny.I never paid attention to milk before I started making it myself. Now I see others as competition
Buffalo milk is used a lot to make mozzarella cheese

- Quality of service driven packet scheduling disciplines for real-time applications: looking beyond fairness
- Author(s)
- Hayes, David A.; Rumsewicz, Michael; Andrew, Lachlan L. H.
- Abstract
- In this paper we focus on real-time scheduling of `soft' real-time data services such as multimedia data, MPEG video streaming and IP telephony, which can tolerate a small degree of loss or delay. We argue that network operators and service providers should be able to select from a range of Quality of Service objectives, including maximizing the number of customers receiving good service. Further, we argue that scheduling disciplines such as fair queueing are unable to achieve such goals and hence there is a need for alternative approaches. We propose a new scheduling scheme, which we call the Dual Queue discipline. We show that the Dual Queue has the flexibility to satisfy a variety of QoS objectives, ranging from existing notions of fairness through to maximizing the number of customers receiving good service. In addition, even the simplest Dual Queue implementation outperforms Fair Queueing, is scalable in the number of active sessions, and can be made fair, if desired, over moderate to long time scales.

Recently my 5 mos old son got two teeth in. He did okay with them, only biting occasionally. But when he got sick and congested, he would bite so I couldn't nurse him. I would have to get him asleep then try to nurse him. For the most part it worked. If he was wide awake he would bite, every time. That was a couple of weeks ago and he still does that. And now he is only nursing on one side. I switch every time, I start him on one when he is asleep, then when he let's go, I switch him to other. Then he refuses, sometimes cries. I burp him and try but no success. Sometimes one breast goes a long time without nursing. I am worried it will negatively affect my supply. I don't pump because I don't get a lot. Never have.
Any advice about biting, and this one boob at a time thing??
