Nasi Lemak Onigiri
This recipe is inspired by a 7 Eleven product. It sounds weird but wait till you try making your own Nasi Lemak Onigiri. It's a far cry from those you get at 7 Eleven and much much tastier. I saw a video online that mixes hard boiled eggs, chopped fried ikan bilis and peanuts into the rice. I am only adding in chopped fried white baits and fried peanuts. I like it and I am sure you would, too.
Nasi Lemak Onigiri
1 cup Japanese rice
1 cup thick coconut milk
1 pandan leaf
1/8 tsp salt
50 gms chopped white baits and fried peanuts
2 tbsp sambal chilli for brushing
Wash the rice and add in the coconut milk and pandan leaf and cook rice in a pot.
When rice is done. Fluff it up and let it cool for a minute.
Add in the chopped ingredients and mix well.
Shape rice into triangles and set aside. This recipe makes 4 medium onigiris.
Heat up a frying pan and grease with a little oil.
Brush the Onigiri with the sambal chilli and grill till crispy.
Carefully turn the Onigiri to the other side and grill till crispy.
Serve Onigiris hot when it is crispy outside and soft inside.

Soya Sauce Fried Beehoon
This is a simple fried beehoon breakfast dish. You can find this at coffee shops selling economical fried beehoon and fried noodles. For just $1 you can have a packet of kosong fried beehoon, unless you add extra ' liao ' like luncheon meat, fried egg or veggies. But I always like mine kosong.

50 gms taugeh
1 tsp minced garlic
1 knorr ikan bilis cube dissolved in 200ml warm water
2 tbsp light soya sauce
2 tbsp cooking oil or lard
Heat up oil in the wok and add in garlic and fry till lightly brown.
Add in the drained beehoon and fry for a minute.
Throw in the taugeh and give it a toss.
Drizzle the soya sauce at the sides of the wok and continue frying for a minute.
Slowly add in the ikan bilis stock and toss the beehoon with a pair of chopsticks.
Do not add in all the stock or the beehoon will be soggy.
When you think the beehoon is soft enough stop adding the stock.
Combine well and serve fried beehoon with fried sesame seeds on top and sambal chilli on the side.

Woo Har or Fried Taro strips
Woo har is a CNY snack that is not so well known because of the time consuming task of frying and preparations. I tried this snack 2 years ago when my nephew's MIL gifted me a bottle of her homemade Woo Har. I don't know why it's named Woo Har cos there's no har ( prawn) in this snack. Although all the ingredients are very simple, this snack needs to be prepare in small batches because the taro tends to turn limpy after adding in all the dry ingredients. Mind you it's very addictive. I adapted this recipe from wendyinkk.blogspot.com. I made some changes to the seasonings.
Woo Har
250 gms taro, cut into strips
A bunch of coriander leaves, washed and dry
2 tbsps glutinous rice flour
1 tsp chicken powder
1 tsp 5 spice powder
3 tbsp sesame seeds
2 tsp pepper
Transfer the taro into a mixing bowl.
Add in the seasonings except glutinous rice flour and mix well.
Lastly add in the glutinous rice and mix till yam are covered with the glutinous rice flour.
Heat up a pot of oil and dropped a small ball of the mixture ( try to add some coriander and sesame seeds into the mixture before dropping into the hot oil)
Fry until it's golden brown and place on kitchen towel to absorbed the oil.
Cool before storing.
Note: This recipe makes less than 20 pcs Woo Har.

Coconut Oil Cranberries Cookies
I am ushering in the New Year with an ingredient I am not familiar with, Organic Virgin Coconut Oil. This is the first time I am baking with Coconut oil. I am using #Ayambrand Organic Virgin Coconut Oil for this cookie recipe. The smell of coconut oil fills the kitchen and the taste of the cookie is heavenly and coconutty. I don't like soft cookies so I bake a little longer for a crispier cookie.
Coconut oil Cranberries Cookies
200 gms self raising flour
125 gms Ayambrand Organic Virgin Coconut Oil
50 gms dried cranberries
50 gms chopped walnuts
40 gms caster sugar
40 gms brown sugar
1 egg
Sift flour and leave aside for later use.
Place coconut oil and sugars in a mixing bowl and beat till creamy.
Add in the egg and continue to beat till combined.
Slowly add in flour, walnuts and cranberries alternately till all the ingredients are well combined.
Preheat oven at 160°.
Line a tray and scoop mixture onto tray using a small ice cream scoop.
Flatten the dough for a crispier cookie.
Place more cranberries on top of dough if desired.
Bake for 20 - 25 mins till golden brown, depending on your oven temperature.
Let cookies cool on tray for 5 minutes before removing.
Cool cookies before storing in containers.
These cookies bake with coconut oil will filled your kitchen with the aromatic smell of coconut when it's baking in the oven. Bite into a piece of coconutty heavenly cookie that is absolutely different from cookies bake with butter.

"Cops wanna knock me, D.A. wanna box me in. But somehow, I beat them charges like Rocky." - Jay-Z
Drop the Arm & Hammer!
And thank god I did.
Because, as it turns out, I didn't know a single fucking thing about criminal law until I met with him.
I was clueless.
You've heard of a jailhouse lawyer? Well, apparently one week in jail has made this guy some kind of jailhouse law professor.
Yes, that's right.
And I learned such important tidbits as this one:
"Possession with intent to sell? I can beat that! I can beat that! I can beat that! I can beat that! You don't understand, I can beat that."
"Why don't you tell me how you think you can beat that?"
"Well, it was cut. I cut it. I cut it. I cut it. I cut it. I cut it. (Obviously, he has a problem with repeating himself. And spitting when he talks, which is hard to portray to you through a blog.) Therefore, they cannot prove purity. And it is an imperative element that they prove purity."
"What kind of purity do you think they have to prove?"
(See, I'm using the reverse-socratic method. He's the law professor, but I'm asking the questions. Gee, I'm glad I spent my evening on this, instead of eating dinner. )
"Obviously, they have to prove 100%. 100%. 100%. 100%. The statute doesn't call it 'Possession of cocaine and baking soda,' the statute is called 'Possession of cocaine.' That means nothing more. That means nothing more. That means nothing more. If I was charged with intent to distribute cocaine and baking soda, then maybe they'd get me."
It's funny, because most of my clients attack the "intent to distribute" part of the statute.
"But, do you think that maybe the fact that it's cut with baking soda only goes to show the intent to distribute? People don't cut their own cocaine that they're keeping for personal use."
"You don't know the law. You don't know the law. You don't know the law. You haven't read the law. I have. I have. I have. It's not a crime to have baking soda."

Thank you for this post! I'm not trying to be glib, but your jailhouse professor reminds me of Tom Cruise talking about his knowledge of the history of psychiatry.ReplyDelete
So nice to know your investment of time and money in law school was for naught, huh?ReplyDelete
I'm so glad that I'm not the only one who has to deal with jail house lawyers. At least mine don't usually spit. brings us back to why we have purell in out brief cases. janetReplyDelete
That is so sweeet! It never occured to me that I could go to jail and get the rest of my legal education completed...for free!ReplyDelete
I love the fact that he repeats everything!
I love the fact that he repeats everything!
I love the fact that he repeats everything!
I love the fact that he...
My guess is that he's had some time to think this through.ReplyDelete
I'm always afraid that the spit is going to get into my eye. And I'll get, like, eye herpes or something.ReplyDelete
I'll have to think about investing in goggles.
jail house lawyers are the WORST and most DIFFICULT of all the clients that I have to deal with. also, clients that have been in the system for years or former police officers - they think they know everything because they've been there before.ReplyDelete
Ohh no no Mellisa. Jailhouse lawyers are bad but try representing REAL lawyers especially civil lawyers when they get into troubleReplyDelete
"What do you mean we don't get a deposition before trial????"
"you call date time and place a bill of particulars?!" (got to agree with them there but on LI that's all that you ever get)and of course "what do you mean you can't beat a blood alcohol test of a .29 with an accident and video, Murderers walk out scott free every day...Look at OJ!!"
That's hilarious.ReplyDelete
Along the same lines, there's no crime of "murdering someone AND using baking soda toothpaste." It's just murder, just murder, just murder...
If you wanna walk free after committing a crime, it's simple: just add baking soda!
We all owe this brilliant legal mind a debt of gratitude. Maybe he can come on the speaking circuit and give us lectures? The recently-indicted CEOs and CFOs of various major crimin^H^H^H^H corporate enterprises would be so upset that they didn't hear this talk before they did what they allegedly didn't realize they were doing.

The long and the short of household formation
One of the drivers of housing demand is the rate of new household formation, which has been well below trend in recent years, leading to persistent weakness in the housing market. This paper studies the determinants of household formation in the United States, including demographic and behavioral changes, and how they evolve over the long and short runs. There are three main findings: First, because older adults tend to live in smaller households, the aging of the U.S. population over the past 30 years has reduced the average household size, or equivalently, pushed up the headship rate and household formation. Second, after stripping out the effects of the aging population, the residual behavioral component of the headship rate has declined over time, thanks largely to rising housing costs. This shift has reduced household formation, all else equal. Finally, the short-run dynamics of headship and household formation reflect the effects of the business cycle. In particular, I find that poor labor market outcomes have played an important role in depressing the headship rate in recent years. Consequently, household formation could increase substantially as the labor market recovers and the headship rate returns to trend.

Pain-pressure threshold in human gingivae
The pain-pressure threshold in human tissues such as muscles may be affected by the anatomic location of the recording site and the rate of applied pressure. However, is uncertain how these variables affect the pain-pressure threshold in healthy oral tissues. In 10 subjects, a custom-made algometer was used to apply pressure at a constant rate to 12 sites on the attached gingivae apical to teeth 11 to 16 and 41 to 46. The pain-pressure threshold was measured at three different rates of applied pressure at weekly intervals for 4 weeks. The pain-pressure threshold was consistently higher at maxillary recording sites. There were, however, no differences in the pain-pressure threshold at different recording sites along the tooth row in the maxilla or mandible. The pain-pressure threshold measurements were consistent between recording sessions. The pain-pressure threshold was affected by the rate of pressure application and appeared to increase linearly with increasing rate. This suggests that the pain-pressure threshold may be measured consistently in attached human gingivae. When measurement of deep sensation in the oral mucosa is planned, the location of the recording site and the rate of applied pressure should be verified. t i

The RBI has asked corporates to park funds raised through ECBs (external commercial borrowings) for domestic expenditure with local banks. The modification in the norms for ECBs was done after a review of the developments in the global financial markets and current macro-economic conditions
Mumbai: Amid falling value of rupee, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) today asked corporates to park funds raised through ECBs (external commercial borrowings) for domestic expenditure with local banks, a move which will increase inflow of foreign currency, reports PTI.
"The proceeds of the ECB raised abroad for rupee expenditure in India... should be brought immediately for credit to rupee accounts with AD Category I banks," the RBI said in a notification.
Such funds could be used for local sourcing of capital goods, on-lending to self-help groups or for micro credit and payment for spectrum allocation, among other purposes.
The modification in the norms for ECBs was done after a review of the developments in the global financial markets and current macro-economic conditions. The directives have been made effective from today, the RBI said.
It, however, said that ECBs meant for foreign currency expenditure can be retained abroad pending utilisation.
The depreciation in rupee, which slumped to an all time low of 52.73 yesterday, has become a cause of concern for policy makers as the slide is affecting capital market and fuelling inflation.
The central bank said "as hitherto, however, the rupee funds will not be permitted to be used for investment in capital markets, real estate or for inter-corporate lending."
As the cost of credit is significantly less in overseas markets, Indian companies have borrowed close to $29 billion in foreign currencies, through ECBs and FCCBs, so far in 2011, as against $18 billion in 2010.
Meanwhile, the RBI also enhanced the 'all-in-costs ceiling', which include rate of interest, fees and expenses, for raising funds through ECBs.
The ceiling with an average maturity period of ECBs between three and five years have been revised upwards to 350 basis points from 300 basis points.
However, the rate remains same for those with average maturity of above five years.
The enhancement in ceiling will be applicable up to 31 March 2012, the RBI said.
For the first time in the history of the Tata Group, somebody from outside the Tata family has been selected for the coveted post
Tata Sons, the holding company of the over $80 billion conglomerate Tata Group, on Wednesday announced that Cyrus P Mistry, the 43-year-old managing director of Shapoorji Pallonji Group, will succeed Ratan Tata.
"The Board of Directors of Tata Sons at its meeting today appointed Cyrus P Mistry as the Deputy Chairman. He will work with Ratan N Tata over the next year and take over from him when Tata retires in December 2012," Tata Sons said in a statement.
Commenting on the appointment, Ratan N Tata, chairman of Tata Sons, said: "The appointment of Cyrus P Mistry as deputy chairman of Tata Sons is a good and far-sighted choice.
"He has been on the Board of Tata Sons since August 2006 and I have been impressed with the quality and calibre of his participation, his astute observations and his humility."
Mr Tata further said: "I will be committed to working with him over the next year to give him the exposure, involvement and operating experience to equip him to undertake the full responsibility of the Group on my retirement."
Mr Mistry has been a director of Tata Sons since August 2006. A graduate in civil engineering from Imperial College, London, he also holds a masters of science in management degree from the London Business School.
The selection committee unanimously recommended Mr Mistry's name. Mr Mistry will work with Ratan Tata for one year before he takes over as chairman. His appointment was largely in recognition of his family's 16.5% stake in Tata Sons.
The five-member panel appointed by the Tata Sons board to find a successor to the chairman has seen its mandate evolve over time. Tata Sons had said while forming the committee to find a successor that the group would require someone with experience and exposure to direct its growth amidst the challenges of the global economy.
In May, the group said the selection committee had interviewed several candidates, both internal and external, but no final decision had been taken. Since then, the consensus within has been that the group is not yet ready for an expatriate leader.
The stay came after the accused in the 2G case, their relatives and lawyers had expressed their unhappiness over Tuesday's announcement of shifting of the trial. The defence lawyers also opposed the move saying it would cause a lot of inconvenience to them and their clients
New Delhi: In a respite to lawyers and kin of the accused, the Delhi High Court on Wednesday stayed its order to shift the second generation (2G) spectrum case trial to the high-security Tihar jail from Patiala House court in the heart of the capital, reports PTI.
The stay came after the accused in the 2G case, their relatives and lawyers had expressed their unhappiness over Tuesday's announcement of shifting of the trial. Former telecom minister A Raja and DMK MP Kanimozhi are among the accused in the case.
The seven-judge administrative committee headed by acting chief justice AK Sikri said the court's administrative notification Tuesday to shift the trial will not come into effect and that the hearing will continue in the Patiala House court complex itself till an alternative arrangement is made.
The administrative committee also said a group of high court judges, lawyers and the judge-in-charge of the Patiala House courts will inspect the lower court premises again to explore the possibility of shifting the trial to a more spacious courtroom inside the court complex itself.
Sessions judge, the judge in-charge of Patiala House courts, special Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) judge OP Saini and Registrar General of the Delhi High Court will be part of the group.
"If such arrangements do not work out, then the committee may also consider shifting the trial to nearby places such as Vigyan Bhawan and Pragati Maidan in the vicinity," one of the lawyers, who was part of the in-chamber hearing on the issue, said outside the courtroom.
The accused in the 2G case had approached the high court earlier in the morning, challenging its 21st November notification to shift the trial to Tihar jail.
Around 15 defence lawyers mentioned the matter before a bench of justices SK Kaul and Rajiv Shakdher and sought its intervention on the decision to shift the trial, saying it would cause a lot of inconvenience to the lawyers and their clients.
"This case is not related to any terrorist activity where there is a security threat. It is only a case of economic offence that does not warrant this decision," one of the defence lawyers had said.
On Tuesday, special judge Saini had announced shifting of the trial to Tihar jail from 24th November.
"In exercise of the powers conferred by Section 9 (6) of the CRPC, 1973, the acting chief justice and judges of this court (Delhi High Court) have been pleased to order that the trial of the 2G spectrum cases shall be held in Tihar court complex, New Delhi, according to law," the notification, issued by the high court, read.
The decision was opposed by all accused, including former telecom minister A Raja and DMK MP Kanimozhi
"I do not know what is happening in this country. The shifting of the trial to Tihar jail would create a lot of problems as we will not be able to properly have legal consultation with our counsel.
"Till now, the lawyers could reach Patiala House courts from the Supreme Court or the high court within 10-15 minutes, but it would not be possible for them to reach Tihar jail as they would have to leave all their other cases," Mr Raja had said.

UPDATE (June 19, 2014 - 8:28 A.M.)
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) -- Tallahassee Police are now investigating a fourth officer involved shooting in the past five weeks.
Officer David Northway with Tallahassee Police Department tells us the latest shooting happened around 3:00 a.m. June 19 on the 1000 block of Volusia Street. This is off of Old Bainbridge Road near Griffin Middle School.
One officer involved is now on administrative leave, per standard department policy.
The suspect in the case is being treated for minor injuries, though it's not known if the injury is related to this incident or an earlier incident in which he was also involved and reported to have had a firearm.
Officer Northway says the officer in question was on patrol in the area of Joe Louis Stree when he saw the man come out of a wooded area onto Volusia Street. When the officer tried to make contact with the man, investigators say the suspect took off. During the pursuit investigators say the man turned and started firing shots at the officer who then returned fire.
This is the fourth shooting in the past five weeks involving Tallahassee Police Officers.
Tallahassee Police Chief Michael DeLeo, and community members alike, say they are concerned about the latest series of shootings and gun violence in the community.
Chief DeLeo will be taking part in a town hall meeting tonight (June 19) at New Birth Tabernacle Church on Harlem Street. The meeting will begin at 6:00 p.m. WTXL will have a crew there.

Photos: King Soopers, Kroger Stores Targeted for Gun Policies by Moms Group
Additional photos and more below.
In May, we told you about Chipotle stores announcing a no-guns policy after being targeted by a petition from Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America. The organization has had similar success with a number of other national chains. But Kroger, the parent company of King Soopers and City Market stores in Colorado, is resisting a petition about its policy -- a decision that's garnering more attention, as witnessed by a lengthy feature this morning on NPR. Hear it, see photos and the petition and get additional details below.
See also: Chipotle: Don't Bring Guns Into Our Restaurants
King Soopers and City Market logos are featured in this graphic showing assorted Kroger brands across the country.
The Moms Demand Action salvo was launched on August 18. Here's the intro:
Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America launched a national campaign today calling on Michael Ellis, President and Chief Operating Officer, and Mr. W. Rodney McMullen, Chief Executive Officer, of the Kroger Family of Stores to prohibit the open carry of guns in its supermarkets in response to incidences of gun violence in and around stores, as well as open carry demonstrations organized by gun extremist groups that brought gunmen with loaded assault weapons into stores.
Included below are a number of photos and posts related to this last statement. But here's one example:
Courtesy of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America
As the Moms Demand Action release notes, Chipotle, as well as Target, Sonic, Chili's and Jack in the Box, issued gun bans in the wake of petitions from the group. But Kroger hasn't blinked thus far. The company isn't talking at this point, but reps previously issued a statement that reads in part: "We don't want to put our associates in a position of having to confront a customer who is legally carrying a gun. That is why our long-standing policy on this issue is to follow state and local laws and to ask customers to be respectful of others while shopping."
Another photo shared by Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America.
Open Carry Texas, whose members have posed for photos with weapons at a number of businesses subsequently targeted by Moms Demand Action, is ridiculing the petition via memes like this one, which references the support of former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg:

Continue to hear the NPR report and read the petition.
A grocery store is one of the last places we should expect to see someone openly carrying a loaded weapon. But Kroger, the largest grocery chain in the country, has policies that allow customers to openly carry guns in its stores -- where moms and their kids shop every day.
Numerous shootings and gun rallies have taken place at Kroger brand stores in recent years. The company policies that have enabled this to happen are not in line with its core values, which include creating a "safe and secure workplace and shopping environment."
Most states have weak gun laws that let people openly carry guns even if they haven't had a background check or training. Private businesses like Kroger have the responsibility to protect their customers when the law won't.
Target, Chipotle, Starbucks, and other businesses have already responded to petitions from moms and supporters urging them to adopt common-sense gun policies in their stores. Now, we are calling on Kroger to do the same and protect families who shop in its stores.
Sign the petition by using the form on the right, and automatically send a message to Kroger's President and CEO asking them to adopt gun sense policies that will keep families safe in Kroger stores.
Here's the NPR report:

The Illinois School For the Deaf recently incorporated Cued Speech into its curriculum, an idea championed by the A.G. Bell Montessori School.
A.G. Bell Montessori School in Wheeling is the nation's only Montessori school that mainstreams both deaf and hearing children together using Cued Speech.
Cued Speech is a way to make phonics visible, with every consonant sound having a different hand shape and every vowel sound having a placement around the face.
Cued Speech also helps with lip-reading because all of the cues are done around the mouth and connected with the mouth movement, says Karla Giese, director of deaf services at A.G. Bell Montessori.
For years, American Sign Language was considered the standard for deaf students, but Cued Speech is slowly growing in popularity. With an emphasis on personalized and individual learning, students can learn at their own pace.
Nearly all of the deaf or hard-of-hearing students at Montessori are at grade level or higher on standardized tests, the school reports.

|[jira] Created: (IVY-1099) Enable including required confs in deliver and publish Ant tasks
|Mon, 06 Jul 2009 11:12:14 GMT
Enable including required confs in deliver and publish Ant tasks ---------------------------------------------------------------- Key: IVY-1099 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1099 Project: Ivy Issue Type: New Feature Components: Ant Affects Versions: 2.1.0-RC1 Environment: Windows XP, Ant 1.7.1 Reporter: Pavel Sharov Priority: Minor When specifying configuration(s) to deliver/publish, make it possible to automatically include all configurations which are required for those explicitly specified in the conf attribute of ivy:deliver and ivy:publish Ant tasks. For example it could be something like a boolean includeRequiredConfs attribute which would be false by default. The reasoning is the following. For example, in my module's Ivy file I have a configuration (say X) which extends several configurations (say Y and Z). Conf X is the principal conf which is exposed to customers, while Y and Z are private confs, they are quite 'technical', so are likely to change, add, remove, extend other confs etc. If I want to deliver/publish conf X and specify conf="X" in ivy:publish (or ivy:deliver) task, I'm getting an error like 'Cannot exclude a configuration which is extended'. So I have to specify the whole list of all confs that X extends so that they not get excluded: conf="X,Y,Z". It would be great to have a way to make Ivy implicitly include configurations extended by the configuration explicitly specified. That way there would be no need to manually synchronize build script with Ivy file every time it changes. The issue is created on Tom Widmer's advice http://marc.info/?l=ivy-user&m=124687323512461&w=2. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

|Oreo Birthday Cake Fudge
|a colorful tower of fudge 🙂
Every few weeks or so, I like to make fudge for my husband to take into school with him. Jeff is a math teacher and finds that it makes for nice positive reinforcement in his classroom. (And as much as I love fudge, I don't want three whole pounds of it sitting on the shelf tempting us. Jeff bringing the majority of a batch into work is the perfect solution)! Most often I make the recipe for Oreo fudge, but I occasionally prepare other kinds such as birthday cake fudge. This past weekend, I couldn't quite decided which flavor I wanted to make. Solution? Make both! I merged Oreo fudge and birthday cake fudge into one, using a mixture of: crushed Oreos, frozen rainbow sprinkles, almond extract, and vanilla extract. For some reason, the rainbow sprinkles work perfectly with the crushed Oreos. It is as if they were made for each other. Personally, I now have a new favorite flavor. 🙂
Oreo Birthday Cake Fudge
Prep time
Cook time
Total time
Serves: 48
- ¾ cup butter (1 & ½ sticks)
- 3 cups white sugar
- 5 oz. can evaporated milk
- 12 oz. white baking chips
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon pure almond extract
- 7 oz. jar Marshmallow Creme
- 1 cup Rainbow sprinkles, frozen
- 12 crushed Oreos**
- In a large saucepan over medium heat, stir together butter, sugar, and evaporated milk. Stirring constantly, bring mixture to a ROLLING boil. Boil and continue stirring constantly for 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat and immediately stir in white chips, vanilla extract, and almond extract, stirring quickly until mixture is smooth.
- Quickly stir in marshmallow creme until no lumps remain.
- Stir in frozen sprinkles and crushed Oreos until thoroughly mixed.
- Pour into a greased 9x13 inch pan. Let cool four hours on shelf or almost 2 hours in refrigerator before cutting.
*Mixture yields 3 pounds. For a large batch, double all ingredients and boil for 8 minutes. Pour into two greased 9x13 inch pans or one large greased half sheet pan. **To crush Oreos, you can use a food processor, or even easier, a quart freezer bag. I put the cookies in the bag, squeeze out any extra air, and step on them with my feet until the cookies are in tiny pieces. (This is a great job for the kids. My daughter also likes to help out by squeezing the cookies in the bag after I crush them)!

|[mina] Added more methods to ByteBuffer.
|Mon, 28 Nov 2005 17:03:50 GMT
Hi all, Here's the list of the new methods: * asInputStream() and asOutputStream() - this will improve the integration with the legacy softwares. * getPascalString() and putPascalString() - now you can read and write one of the most popular string encoding in networking. * getObject() and putObject() - you can read and write a Java object with no sweat if you're too busy. (though we still need an ObjectSerializationFilter for those who're really busy. ;) Any question and criticism is welcome.

This episode introduced the Wonderful World of Whoopee award, which went to a man in Ann Arbor, Michigan for his creative solution for junk mail: He sent the ads for beds, undergarments and lingerie back because he determined they were obscene, and the postmaster agreed with him.
The short bits included Phyllis as a maid cleaning up, Ruth and Jo Anne as colonial women in stocks, and Dick as a father and Alan as his hippy son.
Phyllis: Have you ever traveled third class on the Burbank airline?
Dick: I'd rather walk!
Phyllis: Ah-hah! That's third class.
Goldie: How do you straighten out a dented fender?
Phyllis: Well, I would just take it aside and have a heart-to-heart talk with it, okay?
Gary: Stand by for a gale warning.
Dick: Gale, get out of town. The wife's onto us.
Roger: I'm Roger Moore. I'm known as 'The Saint.'
Dick: I'm Dick Martin. I'm known as 'The Sinner.'
Ruth: Truth is beauty. But if that's not enough, try a hairpiece, false eyelashes and a padded bra!
Dan: Well, what do you think of, uh, beautiful downtown Burbank, Romy?
Romy: Well, two out of three ain't bad.
Dan: Unhappily, I'm in no position to disagree with you.
Roger: I normally do my own stunts unless they're extremely hazardous to my career. That's why I should have hired a stand-in to do this show.
Jacqueline: The University of Burbank is getting a lot out of my book The Love Machine. The English department is trying to read it, and the engineering department is trying to build it!
Jo Anne: Boris' wife and I have something in common: We're both thinking of leaving him!
When Phyllis appeared on the show in the previous season, she introduced the news segment by saying she loved how the girls stumble through the beginning song every week. In an ironic twist, she joined the girls in the opening news song. They had to carry Phyllis off at the end of it, when Dan came in. Also, Goldie did the beginning, which Dick noted by saying, 'That may be the only time we'll ever see Goldie on point.'

Hubby and I were traveling in Kentucky to look at property and decided to stay at the Lawrenceburg B&B rather than a hotel since it was also our anniversary. Ron and Marlene were wonderful hosts and made us feel like special guests in their beautifully refurbished older home. Marlene is the cook extraordinaire with her amazing breakfasts and yummy desserts, and we enjoyed visiting and relaxing with her and Ron during "wine and cheese" time. Ron also shared with us his very impressive model train set-up he has in the basement--wow! Too, our room (The Back Room) was huge, yet comfortable, and immaculately clean. An overall fantastic B&B experience--the best we've had to date!
5 en febrero 07, 2016
Truly home away from home. I felt so comfortable, like I was home. Ron and Marlene are just the best. Everything was perfect. I enjoyed everything there at the bed and breakfast. But the area had some really special things to offer: pottery painting, bourbon, wine, shopping. My first experience at a bed and breakfast. Enjoyed it so much that we booked another weekend. A great weekend.
5 en abril 03, 2015
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Ron and Marlen's Bed & Breakfast is simply wonderful. We've stayed in B&B's all over the world and the Lawrence Bed & Breakfast is our favorite! Close to many distilleries on the Bourbon Trail and other charming attractions. Located close to Louisville and Lexington. Prepare to be spoiled, Marlene and Ron have every imaginable luxury prepared for you. Spotless clean home, comfortable beds, delicious desserts and incredible breakfast. Book it now, you are in for a treat!
4,8 en septiembre 30, 2014
This was my first experience at a B&B and I hope it didn't ruin me. Ron and Marlene are just peachy and the room was incredible! Super comfy bed, awesome double shower, snacks! Fabulous home-cooked breakfast. We will DEFINITELY come back if we're ever in the neighborhood again. It's the perfect stop if you're doing the Bourbon Trail!
5 en septiembre 09, 2014
My wife and I never stayed at a B & B before and after much debating, we finally decided to give it a try. When we pulled up we were astonished at how big and beautiful the house was. Ron and Marlene met us at the door with big smiles and we immediately felt like we were "home". They were so easy to talk with, friendly, helpful and never once made us feel out of place. They took us on a tour of the house (which was fascinating) and was shown our room. We stayed in the front room and we loved every inch of it. From the sheer size of it to all of the little decorations; it was perfect! We liked it so much that we ended up spending the first hour of our stay just relaxing in the room. We eventually came out of hiding to run into town and get some dinner. When we returned, they had put out desert for us. It was called a Danish Kringle and I am not sure what a Kringle is but it was quickly devoured lest Ron and Marlene came back looking for it. The bed was so comfy that my wife and I had a hard time leaving it in the morning. Breakfast was a delightful spread of baked pear, sticky buns, eggs, waffles, bacon, juice and coffee. To say that we were stuffed is an understatement. Ron was kind enough to show us his model train city he has built in the basement. What an amazing site that was! By the time we left, we felt like we were saying goodbye to old friends and hope to see them again soon.
5 en julio 14, 2014
This was my first time at a B&B, and it was wonderful! Ron & Marlene are awesome! The house is beautiful, and the food was amazing! I will recommend this B&B to everyone!
5 en mayo 14, 2014
Whether you're here to do the Bourbon Trail or just enjoy the lovely little towns within 30 minutes of this Bed and Breakfast, you won't be disappointed. The innkeepers do a wonderful job of making sure all and any needs you have are taken care of. The rooms do not touch so noise isn't typically a factor. The food and advise is outstanding. This is old school with no online ability to make reservations. This is because Marlene wants to know who's coming and how she can make it the best stay possible. The desserts at night are amazing and breakfast is full and well prepared.

These fine folks hosted me and my Fiancé for a Veterans Day event. We could not be more pleased with your hospitality and your gracious gift to us. The breakfast was outstanding but I would also have eaten a pound of bacon if offered. VR, Roger Caruthers, USN (Ret) and Diane Martel
5 en noviembre 11, 2013
Wonderfully restored home with Charming owners. Clean rooms with fresh flowers. The double headed shower faucet was great. Food was to die for. Too many small details to mention. Thank you for Supporting our Soldiers especially on Veterans day. Ron, thank you for your military service.

My hubby and I took a trip to the Kentucky Burbon trail. We stayed at this B&B for two nights before moving on to another location and another B&B. We realized now special this B&B was after staying at the other place. Ron and Marlene are truly gracious hosts. They made us feel like welcome guests in their home. We enjoyed wine and cheese with Ron and Marlene each night. We also anxiously came back from dinner to see what scrumptious dessert Marlene left for us in the snack room. Marlene's breakfast both mornings was creative and over the top delicious. They definitely know how to run a successful business in the short time they have been open. I almost hate to write this review as I'm afraid word will get out as to how great they are and we will have trouble booking a room in the future. Should we end up back in the area, we will definitely stay here again!

Video: My Yankee Doodle Animation Project
Hi, my dear readers! Sorry for not posting regularly, but recent exciting changes in our life take up most of my time and energy :) I will talk about it a bit later… For now let me share my excitement about my first animation project!!! Yay! :)
- Yankee Doodle went to town
- Riding on a pony;
- He stuck a feather in his hat,
- And called it macaroni.
As you can see from the video, I worked with Eflashapps and their animation team on creating this cute little video for a very famous nursery rhyme Yankee Doodle. I was familiar with this song and always liked the melody, so I became very excited to create a storyboard and character design to illustrate this fun kids song.
Here is my sketch of the scene where Yankee Doodle dances with the Girl.
And here is the final colored art for character design in vector format:
I surely did have a lot of fun with this little animation. I hope you and your kids will enjoy watching and singing along to this video.
I'd love to know what you think about my first try in animation genre :) Please let me know in the comments!

His master is Puschov, and he attempts to attack Tintin and Snowy, causing each other to think he'll eat the other. His nightly screams inspired legends of the island being occupied by a murderous creature. It turns out at the end that falling downstairs, Ranko had broken his arm, so Tintin saved him, and they became friends.

Ten years a go, when I was considering whether I should stay permanently in Australia and make a life here or to go back to Indonesia, I was shocked to find that my Australian master's degree was valued less than a hairdressing certificate. Don't get me wrong, I don't think being a hairdresser is less important than being a construction manager. Every woman (and man) on earth knows how difficult it is to find and trust a good hairdresser who could handle their hair gently and don't make them look like electrocuted Ozzy Osbourne.
But I was kinda hurt that even though I paid more tuition fee, had much less fun (do you prefer to visit muddy project sites or to chat with clients in a air conditioned-room while massaging their scalps?), and endured much less sleep during my study, I was less valuable in front of Australian government's eyes. I had a colleague who studied to be a nail technician, and she seemed to be able to work every single day in perfectly manicured nails (of course), hair and make-up as she had more time to spend in front of the mirror, only need to spend about two hours a week studying, never slap her forehead for forgetting to return the books to the library and never had to rush in to work in half-awake state after spending the night at the lab trying to finish an assignment or two. Another friend actually ditched her IT course to learn about cooking, as it gave her more chance for her PR application.
But Daily Telegraph reported that "the Government will today reveal it will crack down on people manipulating Australia's immigration system, taking up "low-value" education courses as a means of seeking permanent residency."
But foreigners with low English skills who completed short courses in vocations such as cooking and hairdressing – who were previously almost assured of graining permanent residency as a skilled migrant – will now have to expand their skills if they want to live in Australia. There are more than 200 other occupations that have also been dumped from the Government's new skilled job list, including mathematicians, counsellors, historians, fashion designers, translators, park rangers, hotel managers, parole officers, interior decorators, piano tuners, buttermakers, massage therapists, tree surgeons and glass blowers.
Immigration and Citizenship Minister Chris Evans said refining the list to "highly valued" occupations would restore integrity to the skilled migration program, and close the door on those seeking to manipulate the migration system. "Through a targeted migration program, the Rudd Government will attract skilled migrants of the highest calibre and deliver people with real skills to meet real need in our economy," Senator Evans said.
Another article from the same newspaper said more than 20,000 foreigners who applied to migrate to Australia before September 2007 under outdated rules that allowed lower English skills will have their applications withdrawn and their $1500-$2000 applications fees refunded under the changes.
This is because the system that allocates potential migrants points based on their qualifications and skills will be restructured.
"The current points test puts an overseas student with a short-term vocational qualification gained in Australia ahead of a Harvard-educated environmental scientist," Senator Evans said. The new system is likely to give potential migrants more points if they are qualified in certain high-value professions and trades, went to a prestigious university, have more experience and display excellence in English.
In last week's budget, the Government announced it would hold the migration intake steady at 168,700 places but 5750 places were cut from the family program to boost the skilled stream to 113,850 places.
The new list of skills will apply from July 1 and will be updated annually by Skills Australia on advice from industry.

|Vital statistics
|Series of Origin
|Silent Hill
|Based on
|The Butcher from Silent Hill: Origins
Butcher is an unlockable costume for Pyramid Head. It is unlocked when reaching Rank 10 with Pyramid Head.
Alternate ColorsEdit
- Green skin - wears a green apron.
- Blue skin - wears a blue apron.
- Red skin -- wears a red apron.
The Butcher is a monster that appears in Silent Hill: Origins as a major antagonist towards Travis Grady. The Butcher is a humanoid creature much like Pyramid Head in design, behavior, and function. He is well-built with a butcher's apron which is almost completely covered in blood. He wears a series of metal plates that cover the left half of his face and left shoulder. The other half of his face is fairly empty, save for a deep hole where the ear would be on a human head, a nose, and a very mild relief on his visage that almost resembles the top of an eye socket. Overall, his quite featureless mug is quite similar to that of Valtiel. His trademark weapon is a heavily over-sized meat cleaver known as the Great Cleaver.

Almost Naked Lady Gaga at Chateau Marmont
Looks like a little diaper rash.
I think it´s just irritated from sitting on giant crystals.
So if a fabric dots your ass with rhinestone-dimples when you sit down and then lets everybody see them, maybe it's not the best party-going fabric.
I think she got an ass lift.
Looks plump. Not bad. Not gonna lie.
That's a great ass. I want to get in there.
That ass is tight, yo.
There is a hole right where her hole is whats

The Zachary Chamber of Commerce tried something new at its Jan. 7 Lunch and Learn session — speed networking.
"You might think you don't need to network or that you don't have time, but everyone needs to network," said Heather Prejean, Zachary Chamber director. "One day you're going to need a new client, new vendor or even a new job. That's when the networking you've already been doing will really pay off."
The Zachary Chamber hosts a monthly business networking luncheon for the Baker, Baton Rouge, Zachary, and East and West Feliciana business communities, and chamber members, nonmembers and guests are invited to attend.
The luncheon features a guest speaker who discusses topics such as better ways to connect with clients, the latest in business technology or social media marketing for companies large and small.
The luncheons also allow brief, informational speeches by attendees about the businesses or companies they own or represent. These speakers are selected through random drawings.
Door prizes are given away and often feature promotional items of businesses represented at the luncheons.
At the recent Lunch and Learn, Prejean asked everyone to stand in a circle. Once a timer was started, she asked each person to talk with someone he or she was unfamiliar with or had never met or spoken to before. After three minutes, Prejean asked attendees to network with yet another unfamiliar person, and so on, until everyone in the room had spoken with four people they had never met.
"Networking can be thought of as a necessary evil sometimes," Prejean said. "But you have to get to know people in business."
Prior to the speed-networking exercise, Prejean offered these tips on networking:
Focus on giving rather than getting: What you have to give may have nothing to do with you or your business. Do you know someone who can help the person or a book he or she might like?
Be present: Be engaging with the person you are talking to; don't break concentration or look around to see who else is in the room or what else is going on.
Listen more than you speak: The most interesting people to talk to are the ones who are the most interested in you.
Think long term versus short term: When you first meet someone, don't push your agenda on him or her. Real relationships build over time.
Do not overcommit or feel guilty: When you go to a lot of conferences or events, you will meet plenty of people. It's fine not to stay in touch with everyone. Don't put so much pressure on yourself.
Be honest: Don't make false promises or agree to do things just to be nice if you have no intention of following through.
Take action immediately: If you do agree to do something for someone, do it immediately.
Only say yes to things you really want to do: Do the things that really excite you. The best connections are with friends.
Zachary Chamber Lunch and Learn sessions are from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. on the first Wednesday of every month at the Americana YMCA, 4200 Liberty Way, Zachary.
The next Lunch and Learn is Feb. 4. Chamber members pay $15 to attend; nonmembers pay $20.
Register online to attend the next luncheon by visiting zacharychamber.com.
