IRVINE, Calif. --- Drew Hillman belted his fourth home-run of the season in the bottom of the 12th inning to lift No. 18 UC Irvine to an 8-7 win over San Diego Tuesday at Cicerone Field at Anteater Ballpark. Hillman's home run helped the Anteaters maintain a spotless home record at 15-0 as the team improves to 24-9 on the season.
San Diego (10-24) took the 7-6 lead in the top of the 12th on Zach Sullivan's two-out double off Brian Hernandez, scoring designated hitter Corey LeVier.
However, with reliever Paul Paez on the mound for the Toreros and two outs in the bottom of the 12th, Hernandez hit a clean single through the right side. Hernandez then gave way to pinch-runner Pierce Bily but Hillman belted a 2-1 pitch over the left-field fence to lead the Anteaters to their third extra-inning victory of the season.
Hillman, the reigning Big West Player of the Week, was 2 for 6 with three RBI. D.J. Crumlich and Christian Ramirez both batted 2 for 6 with an RBI while Sean Madigan and Ronnie Shaeffer tacked on two hits apiece. Jon Hurst figured in UCI's five-run seventh with a bases-loaded walk.
San Diego took the initial lead in the top of the fourth on an RBI grounder to short by Sullivan to score Kris Bryan.
However, UCI answered in the bottom of the frame. Hernandez doubled to lead off the inning and took third on Hillman's single. A wild pitch by reliever Max MacNabb allowed Hernandez to score the tying run.
Sullivan struck again for USD in the sixth on a two-run single and the Toreros extended the lead to 5-1 in the seventh on a run-scoring double by Zack Kometani and a hit batsman with the bases loaded.
The Anteaters rallied again, scoring five runs in the seventh. Crumlich sparked the inning with a single to right and would eventually score on a fielder's choice by Hillman. Ramirez hit the first pitch from reliever Trevor Bayless into right-centerfield for a double, scoring Hillman from first. An error on the relay allowed Ramirez to take third and Jordan Leyland and Tommy Reyes would draw consecutive walks to load the bases. Reliever Michael Wagner looked to be out of the inning after striking out Ronnie Shaeffer but the passed ball by Sullivan, allowed Ramirez to score and load the bases again. Hurst, pinch-hitting, coaxed the third walk of the inning to push across Leyland and tie the score at 5-5. Crumlich then came to the plate and slapped his second single of the frame to drive in Reyes and give the team a 6-5 edge.
USD's Dillon Checkal and Julian Duran hit back-to-back singles to lead off the eighth and advanced on the sacrifice bunt by Tony Strazarra. Muno, facing reliever Jimmy Litchfield, grounded to short, allowing Checkal to score the knot the score at 6-6.
Shaeffer delivered a defensive gem in the top of the 10th for UCI. After Checkal laced one-out triple, the Toreros called for the squeeze play. However, Shaeffer jumped on Duran's bunt in front of home plate and tagged Checkal before doubling up Duran at first to end the inning.
UCI starter Matt Whitehouse pitched 2.2 innings, striking out two and giving up two hits. The Anteaters used eight pitchers with Hernandez earning the win to improve to 3-0. Hernandez logged two innings, striking out one and giving up a run on one hit.
Paez pitched 2.2 innings, giving up two runs on four hits to fall to 3-3. Starter Nick Youpel held UCI to one hit in 2.2 innings. Sullivan led the Toreros with four RBI.

Lobster Rolls
We usually spend Fourth of July in Maine with our whole extended family—all 31 of us!—and kick off the celebration with my grandmother's famous lobster rolls. Up there, we can go to our local grocery store and watch them pull fresh lobsters out of the water right off the dock! We have a couple tricks to make our lobster rolls a bit healthier, but they are still just good old summertime deliciousness.
- Ingredients
- step-by-step directions
Lobster Rolls
- 1 whole-wheat hotdog bun, 1 teaspoon Virgin Coconut Oil, 1 cup cooled and cooked lobster meat, 1 tablespoon Vegenaise, 1 teaspoon finely chopped chives, 1 teaspoon finely chopped tarragon, 1 avocado, 3 teaspoons finely diced sweet onion (Vidalia is ideal),
- Spread a thin layer of Virgin Coconut Oil on the outside of a whole-wheat hot dog bun and place in the oven to brown. You can also do this by lightly frying the outside of each bun with coconut oil in a pan.
- Mix cooled, fully-cooked, fresh lobster meat in a bowl with Vegenaise (Vegan Mayo substitute), chives, tarragon, freshly cracked pepper and sea salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine ripe avocado with sweet onion and lemon juice. Spread this mixture on the inside of the toasted bun, fill with lobster mixture, and enjoy!

Offering the same value, comfort, and sound quality of our popular E6 Omni, our E6 Directional Earset is designed for even more gain before feedback in noisy or loudspeaker-intensive spaces.
Our E6 Earset Mics are practically invisible to live or broadcast audiences. They're incredibly comfortable for the wearer. They capture sources clearly with excellent rejection of wind, ambient noise, and feedback. And their unique quick-swap cable extends the equipment life many times over. In addition, the quick-swap cable makes the same earset compatible with virtually any wireless mic system, simply by switching cables instead of buying an entirely new mic!
We've mounted our tiniest mic capsule on an even tinier boom that is rugged and incredibly lightweight. Silicon padding at the earpiece helps keep the boom comfortably in place, even with glasses or other head-worn accessories. We offer the widest range of boom and windscreen colors to match virtually any skin tone, and each mic can easily be custom-fitted to any wearer. Once adjusted to fit your head, the tough springy boom keeps its shape when stored.
What's more, the protective caps swap in seconds and allow you to select between cardioid and hypercardioid patterns for on-location fexibility.
It's no surprise that Countryman's E6 Directional Earset is a top choice for any spoken word application with excessive background noise or potential for feedback.

Other half is saying you got lucky. Very lucky.And most of the ones complaining are loud themselves or on their damn cellphones.To the posters who expect parents to lock their kids in the basement..
How do you expect parents to teach their children how to act in public if we do not take them in public? I suppose we should isolate them until age 18 and then just release them on the public and hope for the best. Children are part of life and part of our civilization, if they are acting age appropriate... DEAL WITH IT. If it aint a black tie establishment, kids gotta eat too!

Paper beads have been made for a long time. The idea isn't new by any means. Beads made this way use to be common place, but seldom are these beads made in the home anymore or worn in jewelry designs. I remember the first time I learned of paper beads. My grandmother had given me a necklace made of handmade paper beads that she purchased at her church craft fair. I wore the necklace for years, and still have it in storage. I hadn't thought of the necklace in ages until flipping through a jewelry supply catalog recently. The catalog had a metal tool for sale that is used to make paper beads. Seeing the tool made me think of the necklace and about trying to make my own paper beads. Chances to reuse things that would other wise be garbage are always my favorite.
The Tool:
I used a screwdriver instead of the tool specifically made to make paper beads. I tried using a pen, pencil, and a bamboo skewer to roll the paper around, but none worked. Metal keeps the bead from sticking to the rod, so it can be easily removed. Crochet or knitting hooks could also be used as long as they are metal.
The Paper:
We don't keep much scrap paper around, so my paper choices were kind of limited. I practiced making beads with different weights of paper. I found that thicker paper is needed for a beginner to make a well formed bead. Maybe with practice newsprint could be used. I tried with bad results. I believe the necklace that I own is made of paper beads from wallpaper scrap. The thickness of the wallpaper would be perfect for making paper beads. If I had some I would certainly try using it. The bright colors of the wallpaper would also make a better fit then most magazine pages. I ended up using the back and front covers of a couple of magazines. The prints/colors aren't really idea for jewelry, but made good practice. Cutting the paper was my biggest hangup. The paper needs to be cut at at a sharp angle and be 9-10 inches long. It took a little of trial and error to get it just right. Changing the paper triangle size easily changes the bead dimensions. Be creative!
The Other Stuff::
The only other things you will need to make paper beads are regular white school glue, a paint brush (useful but not necessary), paint or clear coat (also not necessary), and a pair of scissors. The glue is used to form the bead and to seal it. The optional paint or clear coat can also be used to seal and finish the beads. The paint brush is used to apply the small amounts of glue needed in the project. You can use your finger, but it gets messy!
|Copyright © 2011 TownsEndCrafts.Com
How To Do It:
1) Cut triangles of proper proportions out of preselected scrap paper. Read the paragraph above to help you choose your paper.
2)Begin to wrap paper around screwdriver (see above for other tools) rod while applying a light coating of school glue to the inside of the paper triangle. Start wrapping paper from the base of the triangle. Layer of glue should be very thin. Wipe off drips.
3) Continue to wrap the paper around the screwdriver rod while applying glue until the entire triangle is rolled with the point on top. Remove bead from rod and allow to dry.
4)When dry, apply a thin coating of glue to seal bead. You can also paint or clear coat the bead at this time. Allow to dry again.
5)Enjoy your new creations!
UPDATE 12/01/2011: I've been making lots of these beads lately. Here are a few tips that I found to make the process easier. When I made my first batch I thought it would be as simple as wrapping paper around a rod. It pretty much was, but the beads weren't very uniformed. I didn't research how to make paper beads before I tried my first batch. I just made my own technique, so needless to say the technique needed to be worked on.
1) Don't spread glue on the whole strip of paper, just the last inch or so towards the point. It will stay fine with only a small amount of glue.
2) Wooden skewers can be used to roll the beads around as long as you only add the glue to the last inch. These small skewers allow for smaller beads.
3) A ruler is a big help when cutting the paper for the beads. I now draw all the triangles out before I cut verses cutting freehand. Much more uniform shape for the beads.

About Army ROTC
Just like West Point, we commission officers into the United States Army. While our Cadets receive the same high quality training, they are afforded the flexibility to serve on Active Duty, in the National Guard or the Reserves. A commission through ROTC is hardly limiting. General Colin Powell, 12th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, attended ROTC through the City College of New York. Our program draws Cadets from a number of Bay Area institutions. Several of our Cadets start at the junior level before transferring to one of the four year degree producing universities. These include Santa Clara University, San Jose State University, Stanford University and the Monterey Institute of International Studies.
Our program was recognized in 2010 as one of the finest in the country and was presented the MacArthur award. The MacArthur award is only given to 8 programs each year out of 273 across the country. Our Cadets demonstrated superior academic, athletic prowess, were superlative at the Leaders Development and Assessment Course (LDAC).

Puppy biting... Hints and tips to help
I know we have this in other places, but the threads have gotten a bit long with everyones comments so putting the tips in this one place.

Long link that you can add to... http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum...nhibition.html
What IS recommended is the following:
And you know it's enough when the pup comes back in the house and goes immediately to it's bed to crash for hours. This will guarantee some relief.
Exercise is NOT letting my dog out in the yard alone. It is NOT having my other dog entertain my puppy. It's ME putting the puppy in the car and training, hiking, canoeing, swimming, until that pup is exhausted.
The other part of this is
Means we have to interact and TEACH our puppy to WANT TO PLAY WITH US................and in an APPROPRIATE WAY. We know WE are doing it right when the puppy starts bringing a toy to us and we know to STOP IN OUR TRACKS to play with them for a while. Cause they will learn that toy=play and biting does NOT = play. And all the puppy wants is TO PLAY.

do you know more about your dog than other people even a trainer?
Some people seem to think other people and trainers know more about their dogs. Seems odd because you live with your dog you learn from each other. Not like the trainer is physic and knows everything even trainers can be wrong. They may know more what works best but not know as much as the owner. I know that my dog is a fanatic at swimming can go for hours. At times loves to bark when it is a fun happy time. Don't let him bark when frustrated anxious scared or nervous. He has his own indivdual that a stranger doesn't know about that.

If you're knowledgable about dogs and able to look objectively then of course you'll know more
I think it depends. I can tell you my dogs personalities and quirks inside and out. As far as why my dogs do certain things or act a certain way I can most of the time but a trainer can tell me how to fix it and more in depth why they do or act a certain way.
However, some people think their dogs do things and they have no clue on dog behavior and have it all wrong.
Ex: fido barks at everyone and raises hackles. Owner things dog is just being protective. Trainer and others with dog knowledge know fido is fearful.
Not everyone is keen on dog behavior.
I have learned a ton, but I'm no expert.
Just because you live with a dog doesn't mean you automatically understand dog behaviors. You have to study and learn what the behavior is and why the dog thinks the way it does to commit that behavior.
Some people who have dog knowledge can tell a dogs behavior or why they act a certain way and have never met the dog previously.
It's all about the right kind of knowledge
You'd be surprised at how many people think they know their dog and think they know how to read doggy body language but do not. They mistake submission for dominance, calming signals for a challenge, fear aggression for protectiveness.
You'd be surprised at how many people have inadvertently trained their dogs for certain behaviours, and then blame the dog for being 'bad', when it was their own actions that caused the behaviour. It often takes an outside person looking in, like a trainer, to be able to see the dynamics between owner and dog and be able to shed light into the situation.
Of course, I know more about my dogs than a trainer does. But that doesn't mean a trainer might not know better why a problem exists and how to best manage the problem.
A good trainer can look objectively on how you handle your dog. They can see body language that the dog is reacting to that we may not be aware of ourselves. And they are caught up in loving the dog, so they aren't trying to see everything in a light that makes ourselves or our dog look better.
A good trainer has to diagnose the problem between dog and handler and then they have to lay out a course of action that will address the problem that will work for both parties.
In a group class of people teaching a variety of commands, the trainer has to demonstrate how to get the dog to do each command, and watch the handlers fumble through it. Then they have to adjust the techniques to fit the handlers, and help the handlers get it right. The focus is on the handler, for the handler trains the dog, the handler lives with the dog, the handler knows the dog. And much of the time, any problems reside with the handler moreso than the dog.
Someone on their 1st pup might be wise to accept the trainer knows more than they do, and if they trust the trainer, to do what the trainer says within reason. Someone on their 4th dog might have a better knowledge base, and may realize that an approach that most dogs will respond favorably to, may be over-kill for their dog, and may even make things more difficult. Experience with a variety of dogs, or sufficient history with the dog in question is the only way to get there.
I think in many situations the rose coloured glasses come out to play for most owners, having an outsider's POV who is trained and spent years studying is never a bad thing to have. I'd be foolish to completely throw it all away thinking I knew better, use what works and ignore what doesn't. Constructive criticism can be a great tool
Good trainers have multiple tools in their belts and will work with you to achieve the goals you have
I had to think about this and I finally have the most truthful answer I can give. As a responsible pet owner I freely admit that I don't really know Gunther at all. I know his behavior. I know he hides from the garbage truck, or anything he perceives as the garbage truck. I know he eats a lot of things that are very bad for him, even while still suffering from the very thing making him sick. I know he likes to jump up for hugs, will groan if we hug him (but almost like we expect it from him so he does it to humor us). I know that when my husband comes home up until I leave for work he's his preferred human. But as much as I know about what Gunther does, I have no idea why. We always tend to say "Because he's Gunther".
Raising a GSD dog is new to both of us. I do look to others for their input but I always take everything with a grain of salt too. Some of the criticism I ignore, some I respond to. But no matter what my attitude seems like I am always gathering information from others on here and in my social life and learning.
I see it in classes all the time.
Just because they are strangers doesn't mean they don't know dog behavior. Everyone at one point in time is a stranger to you. Just because they don't know your dog, doesn't mean they can't wait the dog interact and understand if they have the right knowledge about dog behavior.
Yes, some people act like they know everything and don't. But that doesn't apply to everyone.
As I mentioned earlier: it's all about the right kind of knowledge.

Personal Injury
Victims of personal injury, such as catastrophic accidents have significant needs that often require a lot of support, both emotionally and financially.
Catastrophic injuries impact upon not only the person who has sustained the injury, but often family members as well. Erin has assisted a number of people whose injuries have been so severe that they required constant care, support and attention from family members.
Litigation for catastrophic injuries can improve the quality of life for the injured person and ease the burden upon family.

Whats up people. So, I posted a while back about my CEL (code P2443). My car is relatively new, and I still have to pass emissions. I actually had to apply for the extension, but luckily its like another 4 months or so.
Anyway... went to the shop a couple weeks ago and discussed the cheapest and most practical way to remedy this situation. For those of you who dont know, the code refers to the secondary air injection system switching valve stuck closed, of which there are two. Replacing the valve(s) is a ton of labor, so the owner of the shop proposed just deleting the entire air injection system, and the codes that go with it on my AP. The valves will be covered up with blocking plates, and I will be able to pass emissions no prob.
This is getting done on friday, its about 4 hours of labor (guy says he can take out everything without pulling the manifold-- replacing parts would have been a different story). Just wondering if any of you 06/07s experienced this problem and dealt with it in this way. I really think it sucks, but I dont see another option. It could be the humidity in my area causing the valves to stick, so if I were to replace the parts ($$$$$) they might just fail again later. Im a little down about my car not having one of its originals parts, but from what Ive read, warming up the cats when you start the car isnt a big deal anyway and it will have 0 affect on the car.
So with the last few days before the deed gets done, help me out if you can share the results from a similar experience please. Thanks!

XB-ART-42765Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. February 15, 2011; 108 (7): 2915-20.
Rare copy number variations in congenital heart disease patients identify unique genes in left-right patterning.
Dominant human genetic diseases that impair reproductive fitness and have high locus heterogeneity constitute a problem for gene discovery because the usual criterion of finding more mutations in specific genes than expected by chance may require extremely large populations. Heterotaxy (Htx), a congenital heart disease resulting from abnormalities in left-right (LR) body patterning, has features suggesting that many cases fall into this category. In this setting, appropriate model systems may provide a means to support implication of specific genes. By high-resolution genotyping of 262 Htx subjects and 991 controls, we identify a twofold excess of subjects with rare genic copy number variations in Htx (14.5% vs. 7.4%, P = 1.5 × 10(-4)). Although 7 of 45 Htx copy number variations were large chromosomal abnormalities, 38 smaller copy number variations altered a total of 61 genes, 22 of which had Xenopus orthologs. In situ hybridization identified 7 of these 22 genes with expression in the ciliated LR organizer (gastrocoel roof plate), a marked enrichment compared with 40 of 845 previously studied genes (sevenfold enrichment, P < 10(-6)). Morpholino knockdown in Xenopus of Htx candidates demonstrated that five (NEK2, ROCK2, TGFBR2, GALNT11, and NUP188) strongly disrupted both morphological LR development and expression of pitx2, a molecular marker of LR patterning. These effects were specific, because 0 of 13 control genes from rare Htx or control copy number variations produced significant LR abnormalities (P = 0.001). These findings identify genes not previously implicated in LR patterning.

Anyone that has ever read the Bible knows (Matthew) that Jesus himself didn't even know when the "end times" would arrive. Only the Father in Heaven knows that.

Harold Camping Revises Apocalypse Prediction For Friday
He's at it again;Remember earlier this year when the world didn't end?
Like every other doomsday prophecy throughout history, the May 21st rapture promised by Oakland-based Family Radio network owner Harold Camping never materialized. The 90-year-old, self-styled prophet now claims the world will end by this Friday and not with a bang, as previously predicted, but rather with a whimper.
"The end is going to come very, very quietly probably within the next month...by October 21st," said Camping in a radio address delivered earlier this month.

Fundies are so entertaining!
It is hard to imagine that anyone pays any attention to this guy. Lets see, I think this is his 3rd or 4th attempt to predict the end of the world. There have been others who have also attempted to predict it. Anyone who does is setting themselves up for a massive let-down.
Even Y2K was a huge let down. I knew plenty of people who were convinced we were going to be without electricity and running water. They were convinced the banks would collapse, the economy would collapse, and everyone would have to flee to the hills to survive. I took very little notice of them, and just kept on living life as usual. Being in the computer field, I knew they were full of bull and had watched too many movies. So many people believe that computers control everything. However, for the types of disruptions people expected, they believed computers could cause all of the power plants to stop making power, all of the traffic lights to fail, all of the water valves to close and the pumps to shut down, etc. None of these things are controlled by computers and even if they were, there would be manual overrides. I knew the banks had already taken Y2K into account and addressed any database issues. And guess what? I got up on January 1st, 2000 and went about my daily life free of incident.
I just don't take doomsayers very seriously. I think in most cases they have self-serving reasons for their predictions.
"Good people do not need laws to tell them to act responsibly, while bad people will find a way around the laws." -Plato
Doomsday, the apocalypse end days or whatever you want to call it will never happen. The blank may hit the fan but the world will never come to an end.
I predicted that Y2K would be nothing. That not even one plane would fall from the sky.
But, I predict now that we're in for bad times ahead.
Don't get trapped by "Normalcy Bias"
The normalcy bias causes smart people to underestimate the possibility of a disaster and its effects. In short: People believe that since something has never happened before... it never will. We are all guilty of it... it's just human nature.
The normalcy bias also makes people unable to deal with a disaster, once it has occurred. Basically... people have a really hard time preparing for and dealing with something they have never experienced.
The normalcy bias often results in unnecessary deaths in disaster situations. For example, think about the Jewish populations of World War II...
As Barton Biggs reports in his book, Wealth, War, and Wisdom: "By the end of 1935, 100,000 Jews had left Germany, but 450,000 still [remained]. Wealthy Jewish families... kept thinking and hoping that the worst was over...
Many of the German Jews, brilliant, cultured, and cosmopolitan as they were, were too complacent. They had been in Germany so long and were so well established, they simply couldn't believe there was going to be a crisis that would endanger them. They were too comfortable. They believed the Nazi's anti-Semitism was an episodic event and that Hitler's bark was worse than his bite. [They] reacted sluggishly to the rise of Hitler for completely understandable but tragically erroneous reasons. Events moved much faster than they could imagine." This is one of the most tragic examples of the devastating effects of the "normalcy bias" the world has ever seen.
Just think about what was going on at the time. Jews were arrested, beaten, taxed, robbed, and jailed for no reason other than the fact that they practiced a particular religion. As a result, they were shipped off to concentration camps. Their houses and businesses were seized.
Yet most Jews STILL didn't leave Nazi Germany, because they simply couldn't believe that things would get as bad as they did. That's the normalcy bias... with devastating results.
We saw the same thing happen during Hurricane Katrina...
Even as it became clear that the levee system was not going to work, tens of thousands of people stayed in their homes, directly in the line of the oncoming waves of water.
People had never seen things get this bad before... so they simply didn't believe it could happen. As a result, nearly 2,000 residents died.
Again... it's the "normalcy bias."
We simply refuse to see the evidence that's right in front of our face, because it is unlike anything we have experienced before.
The normalcy bias kicks in... and we continue to go about our lives as if nothing is unusual or out of the ordinary.
Well, we're seeing the same thing happen in the United States right now. We have been the world's most powerful country for nearly 100 years. The U.S. dollar has reigned supreme as the world's reserve currency for more than 50 years.
Most of us in America simply cannot fathom these things changing. But I promise you this: Things are changing... and faster than most people realize.

1) Find leak using the UV dye
2) Drain coolant (may not need to be done if your radiator isn't as big as my aftermarket one)
3) Take off the front grille
4) Take off top hose of the radiator (Again it may not need to be done if your radiator is smaller). This step is so that there is more space to slip out the condenser.
5) Unbolt the fans, the bracket holding down the radiator, and the bolt holding the condenser which is behind the grille.
6) Unbolt the lines leading to the AC
7) Slip out the old Condenser
8) Replace o-rings, and put it all back together.
With no past experience doing this, the entire thing took me about 2.5 hr.
I hope this helps some of you, and remember to release the pressure in the system before you do this.

Banana Split Ice Cream Cake
It's time to celebrate! This is a big moment in Ambrosia history: this is my 100th post! Seriously! Can you believe it? I'm actually having trouble believing it myself...I can't believe that with this post, I'll have 100 recipes photographed, archived, and published on this little blog of mine. Sounds crazy, but it's true. This type of milestone deserves something special.
For starters, I'm sure you've noticed by now that the blog looks a bit different...ok, maybe a lot different. I wanted to spruce up the appearance of the blog a bit. Change is good, and I figured that finally implementing these changes should be saved for a special occasion. What better time than now, right? With my 100th post, I give you all an Ambrosia with a brand new look. This new look isn't totally finished yet. There's a couple of things here and there that still need to be worked on, but that's ok. I'm in no rush, because I want these changes to be done right, and that takes time (I have literally ZERO knowledge of web design or anything of that sort, so I have to work on the blog via the total help of Google). But for now, this is what I have come up with, and I like it! 100 published recipes = pretty new blog. Simple math, right?
A 100th post also deserves an extra special recipe, of course. At first I thought about making some kind of crazy layer cake that would be a mile high and full of delicious fillings and beautifully decorated. I didn't want to just make cookies, or brownies, or anything like that. It had to be something really special! I figured an awesome layer cake would do the trick, but then I got an even better idea...
Banana split ice cream cake! With these recent mini hot spells we've been having these past couple of weeks, a no-bake dessert seemed to be completely appropriate, although I think I'd still make this dessert in the middle of winter, because banana splits are always appropriate in my opinion. This banana split ice cream cake starts out with an Oreo cookie crust, and gets topped off with slices of fresh banana. Strawberry ice cream and strawberry sauce come next, followed by chocolate ice cream and hot fudge. Vanilla ice cream is the last layer, and the cake gets topped off with more strawberry sauce, whipped cream, and maraschino cherries. How amazing does that sound? Not only does it taste amazing, but it's actually very easy to make! The cake does take some planning, since each layer of the cake needs time to freeze and harden, but it takes maybe about 5 minutes to assemble each layer and then the cake can be returned to the freezer and left to chill all on its own. No biggie! What's even better is that the cake can be made as homemade as you want. You can make the cake completely from scratch and make all the ice cream and sauces on your own, use all store-bought ingredients, or use a combination of the two. I personally used store bought ice creams, but I made my own simple strawberry sauce, and used this recipe for the hot fudge sauce. You can switch around the order of the layers, use different sauces (the original recipe uses pineapple topping with the vanilla layer, but I swapped in more strawberry sauce because my sister doesn't like pineapple for some reason...) and ice creams to create your own unique flavor combinations. Seriously, this cake can't get any easier!
This banana split ice cream cake is delicious, over the top, and amazing. It's a recipe that comes with a giant wow-factor built right into it, and was definitely the best choice for Ambrosia's 100th post. Enjoy!
Banana Split Ice Cream Cake
recipe inspired by Brown Eyed Baker
For the Crust
20 Oreo cookies, crushed into crumbs
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3 medium bananas, sliced 1/2-inch thick
For the Strawberry Layer
1 pint strawberry ice cream, softened
1 cup simple strawberry sauce
For the Chocolate Layer
1 pint chocolate ice cream, softened
1 cup hot fudge sauce
For the Vanilla Layer
1 pint vanilla ice cream, softened
1/2 cup simple strawberry sauce (or pineapple topping)
For the Garnish
whipped cream
maraschino cherries
chopped walnuts
Begin by preparing the crust. Spray an 8x3-inch springform pan with nonstick cooking spray, and line the bottom and sides with parchment paper. In a small bowl, combine the Oreo crumbs and the melted butter, tossing everything together so that the crumbs are all evenly moistened. Press the cookie crumb mixture into the bottom of the springform pan into an even layer. Top with the banana slices, covering the entire bottom of the pan. Freeze the crust for 15 minutes.
To assemble the strawberry layer, add the softened strawberry ice cream over the layer of sliced bananas. With an offset spatula, spread the ice cream to form a smooth and even layer. Place the pan in the freezer for 30 minutes. Pour the strawberry sauce evenly strawberry ice cream, and spread so that all of the ice cream is covered with the sauce. Place back in the freezer for 1 hour, or until completely frozen.
To assemble the chocolate layer, top the strawberry sauce with the softened chocolate ice cream. Spread the ice cream into a smooth, even layer with an offset spatula, and return to the freezer for 30 minutes. Pour the hot fudge sauce over the chocolate ice cream, and gently spread so that it completely covers the chocolate ice cream beneath it. Place the pan back in the freezer for 1 hour.
To assemble the vanilla layer, top the hot fudge sauce with the softened vanilla ice cream. Spread the ice cream into a smooth, even layer with an offset spatula. Cover the cake with plastic wrap, and place in the freezer overnight.
About 1 hour before serving the cake, unmold the cake by releasing the sides of the spring form pan. Invert the cake onto a plate or board covered in plastic wrap, and remove the parchment paper. Top with a serving plate, and turn the cake right side up. Return to the freezer for at least 15 minutes.
Just before you're ready to serve the cake, pipe the whipped cream into mounds using a star tip around the outer edge of the cake. Top each mond with a maraschino cherry, and fill in the space in the middle with the remaining strawberry sauce or pineapple topping, and top with chopped walnuts if desired. To slice the cake easily, use a hot, dry knife to get clean slices.
Makes 1 8-inch cake

I love the cherries on top and the rich cherry cream at the center. The chocolate flavor for me is just the icing on a sweet cake. This is what I hope to learn in my current cup cake classes.ReplyDelete

Thank you! It's the perfect celebration cake!Delete

Steve Torrence raced to his second Top Fuel victory of the season Sunday at the Toyota NHRA SuperNationals at Old Bridge Township Raceway Park in New Jersey.
Johnny Gray (Funny Car), Greg Anderson (Pro Stock) and Eddie Krawiec (Pro Stock Motorcycle) also were winners at the NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series event, which was slightly delayed by a passing afternoon thunderstorm as teams prepared for their final rounds.
Torrence beat Tony Schumacher and Spencer Massey in earlier rounds with quicker reaction times and then used a horsepower advantage to edge Brandon Bernstein at the finish line in the final round. In the final, Torrences Capco Contractors dragster finished in 3.800 seconds at 323.66 mph while Bernsteins MAV TV/Lucas Oil machine trailed with a 3.807 at 321.04.
Massey, who failed to certify his his category-best low E.T. of the event as a national record, maintained his series lead over second place Schumacher with the semifinal effort. Torrence, who also won at Atlanta in May, has surged to fifth in the points standings.
In Funny Car, Gray claimed his first victory of the season and second of his career by beating teammate Ron Capps in the final round. Gray pulled away from Capps, who was making his fifth consecutive final round appearance, with a performance of 4.078 at 314.39 in his NTB/Service Central Dodge Charger. Capps NAPA Auto Parts Charger, which posted the quickest run in NHRA history on Friday with a blast of 3.964 seconds, lost traction and finished in 5.358 at 160.71. Capps also failed to back-up his category-best performance during eliminations to certify it as a national record.
Gray faced tough competitors all day, as he beat Jim Head, John Force and Robert Hight in the opening rounds.
With the semifinal finish Hight increased his series lead over Capps, who solidified his second place position with the runner-up effort. Gray, who failed to qualify for the Countdown playoffs last season, made a major move toward making the top 10 this season with this victory, climbing to fourth in the standings.
Anderson raced to his fourth Pro Stock victory of the season and 74th of his career in a new car, a Chevy Camaro. Anderson defeated teammate Jason Line in the final round with a performance of 6.560 at 212.03 in his Summit Racing Equipment Camaro, while Lines Summit Racing Pontiac GXP trailed with a 6.588 at 200.98. It was also the 100th win for the KB Racing team, owned by Ken Black.
Anderson, who qualified sixth, advanced to the final with early round wins over Ron Krisher, Mike Edwards and Allen Johnson. It was his fifth career win at Raceway Park, which makes him the winningest Pro Stock driver in the track's history, moving past Bob Glidden and Warren Johnson.
Anderson, who increased his series lead with the victory, was thrilled to win with his new Camaro in its debut.
Local favorite Krawiec, former Raceway Park general manager, claimed an emotional first Pro Stock Motorcycle victory at the historic track, taking the automatic victory when his final round opponent Hector Arana Sr. fouled at the start on his Lucas Oil Buell. Krawiec claimed his 14th career victory by finishing in 6.921 at 171.45 on his Screamin Eagle Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson.
Krawiec, who increased his series lead with the win, defeated Joe DeSantis and former world champs Matt Smith and LE Tonglet in the first three rounds to advance to the final. He knew he would need to be on his game for the final with Arana, who had posted some of the quickest runs of the day.

Guess what's racist now? Peanut butter!
posted at 3:40 pm on September 11, 2012 by Howard Portnoy
Contrary to misconception, George Washington Carver did not invent peanut butter, which has its origins in Inca culture as early as 950 B.C. Maybe if the sticky spread were the brainchild of a black botanist, Verenice Gutierrez wouldn't be working so hard to brand it as a "white" food—even when it's not served on white bread.
According to the Portland Tribune, Gutierrez, principal at Harvey Scott K-8 School, in Portland, Ore., will be schooling her teachers and students in the language of "Courageous Conversations." The ostensible goal of the program is to enable everyone in the racially diverse school to follow the lead of Gutierrez, who, the article notes, "picks up on the subtle language of racism every day."
And what could be more racist than peanut butter, that food of white privilege? "What about Somali or Hispanic students, who might not eat sandwiches?" Gutierrez says by way of explaining the scope of the problem.
"Another way would be to say: 'Americans eat peanut butter and jelly, do you have anything like that?' Let them tell you. Maybe they eat torta. Or pita." One is sorely tempted to offer suggestions about what Gutierrez can go eat.
It isn't clear from the article what the phrase courageous conversation is supposed to mean exactly, but the premise of the program is that "if educators can understand their own 'white privilege, then they can change their teaching practices to boost minority students' performance." Accordingly, on the first day of the school year for staff, the first item of business for teachers was to have a "courageous conversation"—to examine a news article and discuss the "white privilege" it conveys.
Interestingly, the article proceeds to note that the school offers a lunch-time drum class available to black and Hispanic males only. One parent who tried to initiate a courageous conversation with Gutierrez over what the parent termed as "blatant discrimination" against "women, Asians, whites, and Native Americans" found the lines of communication promptly severed.
Gutierrez denies that there is anything discriminatory about a club that caters exclusively to minority males. And if you refuse to accept her point of view, then she has another answer:
When white people do it, it is not a problem, but if it's for kids of color, then it's a problem? Break it down for me. That's your white privilege, and your whiteness.
If Gutierrez can't see the problem with this reaction, should she really be in charge of a school 26% of which is white?

Technology is growing at an exponential rate and it shapes the job market with many new complex fields. As technology continues to affect our lives, information technology (IT) students need to be prepared with critical problem solving skill sets to adapt and succeed in the workplace. My philosophy of teaching as a senior IT industry professional focuses on preparing students to truly add value to a potential employer in the business world. In my opinion, technology students must be educated to become critical problem solvers and my role as an instructor is to prepare them to be successful in solving real business world problems.
Every student is a unique individual with unique needs, capabilities, and desires. Each course that I have taught has been a learning experience for both the students and myself. Teaching is a very challenging endeavor, but it is also very rewarding. Seeing students truly grasp the meaning of the material, how it relates to other courses, and how it can be used in practical applications, is one of the most exciting parts of being an instructor.
My name is Ron Viseh and I am part-time faculty with the University of Houston, Department of Information and Logistics Technology (ILT). I joined the University of Houston faculty team in 2007. I have been working in the IT industry for more than 25 years. I earned my B.S. and M.S. in Computer Science and, Ph.D. in Management Information Systems (MIS). My teaching experience consists of part-time teaching at two universities. My philosophy of teaching as a senior IT professional focuses on preparing students for the business world to truly add value to a potential employer.
My research interests have revolved around web applications, content management, database management, data mining, dynamic pages, static pages, search engines, and Internet Visibility. My thesis work focused specifically on dynamic and static pages and the way search engines classify the collected information worldwide.

A police officer was killed and four others seriously injured when two helicopters crashed into each other during a training exercise above Berlin's Olympic Stadium.
The aircraft were flying during a snowstorm when it is believed their rotor blades clashed, sending them plunging 100ft into a field next to the German stadium that hosted the "Hitler Games" in 1936.
Each helicopter was carrying 25 police officers on a training exercise which simulated dealing with football hooligans.
Fireworks were reportedly set off to create riot conditions when the helicopters collided. One pilot was pictured walking away from the wreckage with blood streaming down his face from a head wound.
As well as the serious injuries and fatality, media reports spoke of "many others" being hurt.
Alex Lier, a reporter for the Bild newspaper who was at the scene, said: "Everyone is in shock. There was a loud bang and someone shouted: 'Everyone get down!' There was blood and wreckage everywhere."
The helicopters were operated by the Federal Police - the national force – rather than the local Berlin police. An immediate inquiry is underway into the cause of the crash as local hospitals braced for multiple casualties.
One of the helicopter pilots died at the scene, fire service spokesman Stephan Fleischer said, who confirmed that four people had been seriously injured.
A female police officer is believed to be among the four severely wounded.
Federal Police spokesman Frank Brochert confirmed there "was an incident during an exercise" and that emergency crews were on the scene.
Eyewitness Johannes Malinowski said he saw three helicopters approaching and that the snow on the field was being kicked up by the aircraft, so "you couldn't see a whole lot anymore"
There was then "a big bang", he said, "and then we looked up and there was blood on the ground".
Germany's main police union is asking why the training exercise was given the go ahead when the weather was so bad in Berlin.
The design and construction of the Olympic Stadium was overseen by Adolf Hitler and it became the focal point of the Olympic Games in 1936.

Florida is pretty friendly in the areas of firearms, concealed carry and self defense. Particularly in shielding someone involved in legal self defense from civil lawsuit.

This is a discussion on Which state has most 'carry friendly' laws? within the Concealed Carry Issues & Discussions forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I am from Australia, and once again I'm entering the Visa diversity lottery for the U.S. One of the main reasons I wish to leave ...
I am from Australia, and once again I'm entering the Visa diversity lottery for the U.S.
One of the main reasons I wish to leave is the fact that this country is systematically disarming its citizens, not just of firearms, but of ANY means of self defence (leave home with a screwdriver without a lawful excuse and you're looking at up to a year in jail... own a kubotan at all without exemption from the Chief Commissioner of Police and you could do 5 years). I don't wish to debate the rationale behind it, it's far too worrying.
Should I get my green card, I intend on doing military service and obtaining citizenship, with a view to moving into policing.
In the interim, should I wish to carry a firearm for my own protection, given I have no family in the U.S. and hence no plan as to what state to live in, which states have the best legislation and requirements with regard to CCW permits?

If you stand up and be counted, from time to time you may get yourself knocked down. But remember this: A man flattened by an opponent can get up again. A man flattened by conformity stays down for good. ~ Thomas J. Watson, Jr.
Here are some to avoid :)
New Jersey
New York (City)
Check out handgunlaw.us and packing.org to get a good idea of CCW laws in each state.
Personally I like living in New Hampshire: CCW is $10 for 6 years, no state restrictions on "assault weapons", "high capacity magazines", silencers, short barrel rifles, full-auto, open carry is allowed without a CCW permit (CCW petmit is needed for carry in a vehicle), fair self-defence laws, only place state restricts CCW is courthouses etc
First rule of a gunfight: Carry a gun
Minnesota has about the most liberal carry laws.
As it is, it is a permit to carry. Not a Concealed weapon permit.
You can carry a loaded SKS or long gun down the street if you so desired.
Their are relatively few places that you can not carry and those that are restricted short of a court house or federal building, have excemtions tied to them anyway.
Team WTFDTSG?
***** happens, it becomes the past. Live with it, learn from it and get on with it.
Oregon is fairly open. It's a shall-issue state; it disallows any agency but the state legislature from passing laws restraining the carry of firearms; you can carry darned near anywhere except the federally prohibited areas, courthouse grounds, airport secure areas; there is no formal brandishing law; and the laws covering one's ability to defend against attack are reasonable. Certainly not the "best" in the sense of allowing the least intrusion, but all in all I think it's a reasonable combination. One thing, too, there is so much open space in Oregon that there are huge expanses where openly carrying and shooting "in the hills" is not a problem. Heck, you can even purchase and fire practically any hand-held heavy / automatic arms, assuming you can afford the firearm and purchase a Class 3 permit to own, get the nod from your chief of police that you're not a threat, etc. It's amazing to see the size of some spent shells at some of the "hot" shooting spots out in the country.
The thing is, when it comes to the use of lethal force, you're going to have to justify, regardless of the state. That part doesn't really change all that much. You'd better be justified and have an airtight situation and rationale, else you're on the hook. Variation will occur with the licensing, where/when you are disallowed from carrying, whether you may use lethal force in defense of property (ie, Texas, but not Oregon).
There's a book that summarizes the firearms laws in states: "2006 Traveler's Guide to the Firearms Laws of the 50 States." That one might help you decide. Also, the National Rifle Assn (nra.org) web site has lots of material.
Your best weapon is your brain. Don't leave home without it.
Thoughts: Justifiable self defense (A.O.J.).
Explain: How does disarming victims reduce the number of victims?
Reason over Force: Why the Gun is Civilization (Marko Kloos).
Virginia - shall issue state...$50 lifetime permit starting in 1 July 2007 (currently 5 yr permit), pre-emption laws (preventing of patchwork laws hindering gun ownership/carry)...only downside is no castle doctrine law and you must open carry in a restaurant that sells alcohol.
Upside--no permit needed to open carry

While NC makes it easy to get a permit, it is hard to carry because of all the restrictions. A trip has to be planned carefully or you leave the weapon in the car a lot.
How's the weather in Australia? You may want to keep that in mind before you make your decision.
For instance, Vermont may be one of the best states for gun owners, but it gets COLD up there! You may be overly more comfortable moving to a warmer climate like those found in Florida or Arizona. Just a thought...

Consider Missouri (MO). Our law (RSMo 571) allows anyone with a permit to carry in Missouri...all permits are valid here. It is also a concealed weapons law...not just a concealed firearm law.
A resident of MO does not even have to get their home state permit... they can get any permit from any state that offers permits to non- residents and it is valid in MO. Also, you may carry a loaded concealable firearm in a vehicle without a permit as long as you are 21 years of age or older and 'lawfully posess" the firearm. Our background check process is thorough but we do not require an applicant to waive their medical privacy for investigation of their mental health records.
We do have a list of restricted (no carry) places in the law, but the penalty for a first offense is an infraction (maximum of a $100.00 fine). It's not even a misdemeanor. Obviously, this last sentence does not apply to carrying in a federal "off limits" areas within the state.
Finally, while Missouri does not issue permits to non residents, our permit is now widely accepted. We were stuck on 20 states recognizing the MO permit until June of this year when a few of us lit a fire and we've added eight states (DE, GA, MS, NC, ND, NH, PA, VA,) since then, We've also heard that SC will accept the MO permit but nothing is "official" yet. WA and MN amongst others turned us down because medical privacy position.
Overall, an excellent law. We still need to clean up our idiotic process of lawfully acquiring a concealable firearm (barrel length of 16" or less) and work on the Castle Doctine issues ( a seperate law, RSMo 563) but we've come a long way after 13 years of trying to get CCW which finally did happen in 2003. Quick reference is http://www.mshp.dps.mo.gov/MSHPWeb/P...es/SHP-863.pdf
I too like the Northeast...ME, NH, and VT all have good laws in my opinion :)
You might also want to consider how much of your hard earned income you want to keep in your pocket. There are several states with shall issue gun laws that don't have an income tax also. Texas and Florida are 2 that come to mind. In Florida, along with no income tax, there is no sales tax on food or medicine, your auto is only taxed once...at purchase, and homestead exemption keeps property tax reasonable. the one drawback is homeowners insurance rates in certain areas.
Life is too short to be serious!
