Lemon Cream Pie
This Lemon Cream Pie with Lemon Whipped Cream is creamy, bright and lemony and made with a Nilla Wafer Crust!
This pie is just about everything you want it to be…
Sometimes you make desserts and they are good, for sure, but they aren't exactly what you hoped for. Yeah, we've all been there. Well, this is NOT that.
I call this a Lemon Cream Pie, but it's kind of a Lemon Cheesecake Pie. There is no pudding or custard going on here…it's pure whipped cheesecake mousse…stuff.
Oh yeah and it's on a Nilla Wafer crust. You know that makes you a little-lot happy.
So of course I don't have a sliced shot of this to show you…but know once it's chilled it slices like a dream.
You see, I had to make this pie and get it out of the house faster than fast. Because it's one of those desserts that I will consume face first…much like the guy from Stand By Me. You know who I'm talking about. Of course my endgame is not to reek havoc on an entire community…I only like to wreak havoc on my latest diet and then live in regret for the next 3 hours.
So anyway, no sliced picture. My neighbors enjoyed this in a much more civilized manner then I am capable of.
Anyway, let's talk about how dang simple this is to whip up. Oh and did I mention Lemon Whipped Cream garnishes this creamy beauty? Yeah…that.
First start with a gorgeous Nilla Wafer Crust. Yes you can also use graham crackers…just answering that now.
Grab you a few lemon and zest those suckers.
Mix that in with some softened cream cheese, powdered sugar and a little lemon curd for good measure.
Then whip up a little heavy cream and fold it in…
Spread that all in your cooled crust.
And then lick the spatula. It's the right move.
Let the pie chill for a few hours and then whip up some heavy cream with a little lemon juice and powdered sugar and garnish the heck out of that pie. I mean, only if you want to…
You'll be glad you did.Print
Lemon Cream Pie
- Yield: serves 10
- 2 cups Nilla Wafer crumbs (about 60 cookies)
- 6 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 cup cold heavy cream
- 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- zest of two lemons
- 1/4 cup lemon curd
Lemon Whipped cream
- 1 cup cold heavy cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- Preheat the oven to 375°
- Combine all the crust ingredients and press firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a deep dish pie plate. Bake the crust for 8 minutes until lightly golden.
- Allow the crust to cool completely before filling.
- In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment beat the heavy cream on high speed until stiff peaks form, 1-2 minutes. Remove the whipped cream from the bowl and place in the refrigerator while you do the next step.
- Without washing the mixing bowl place the cream cheese, powdered sugar, lemon zest and lemon curd in the bowl and change the attachment on the mixer to the paddle. Turn the mixer to medium low speed and mix until all the ingredients are combined and smooth, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary.
- Remove the whipped cream from the refrigerator and fold it into the cream cheese mixture until combined.
- Spread this into the cooled crust.
- Cover the pie and chill it for at least 2 hours.
- When you are ready to serve the pie make the Lemon Whipped Cream.
- Place all the ingredients in the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and on high speed beat the cream until stiff peaks form, 1-2 minutes.
- Spread or pipe this on top of the chilled pie.
The Lemon Whipped Cream makes enough to cover the entire pie. If you would like it only as a garnish (as pictured) cut the recipe in half.
Store chilled for up to 3 days

I just can feel that it's super delicious 😀
Looks yummy. BTW, the proper word is "wreaks," not "reeks." Just FYI.
Hi Shelly, this was really delicious. The only thing I will do next time is double the lemon pudding and add a bit more lemon juice by adding a bit less water. It's even better the next day. Thanks for sharing this recipe. 🙂
Maybe double the filling? I don't think this recipe needs to double it but I wouldn't object to more pie! It looks delicious!
This seriously looks delicious. I'm drooling. I love a good creamy dreamy pie and lemon is a favorite flavor! I also love how easy this recipe is to make – I'll be keeping it in my back pocket for when I need to slam together a company dessert. 😉

(photo credit:Marc Israel Sellem)
The ITIM religious services and advocacy group has filed a petition with the
High Court of Justice demanding that the Interior Ministry recognize Orthodox
conversions performed in Israel in non-state Orthodox rabbinical
courts.The state conversion authority, which comes under the auspices of
the Prime Minister's Office, is the only body in the country through which an
Orthodox convert can gain legal recognition that he or she is Jewish.

If a house is being sold with part exchange what does that mean to a potential buyer?
Asked on May 11 2013, General in Wallsend | Report content
Answers (1)
Hi scollins770, When a house is being sold with the deal being part exchange, it is much the same as the way that the majority of people go about buying a car, whereby you trade in the house you already have against the value of a new home. Essentially, the builder buys your house from you and you subsequently take this away from the value of the home you are buying. More often than not, part exchange deals are offered by builders on new homes only (although there are other cases as well), and it a tool that is used so they can generate interest at a time when people might opt not to buy because of perceived difficulties with selling their own home. There are advantages to this for a buyer. On one hand, your purchase will be far easier because you do not have to deal with issues such as waiting for a buyer to come along, and there is also no chain that can fall through if another purchase somewhere along the line does not end up being finalised. Many thanks, ScottAnswered on May 13 2013, Report content

Fatullah, Feb 18 (PTI) Speedster Stuart Broad blew awaythe Pakistan top-order with a five-wicket haul as Englandcomfortably won the final warm-up game by 67 runs at the KhanSaheb Osman Ali Stadium, here today.
Chasing a stiff target of 274, Broad (5/25) dealt threequick blows removing Akmal brothers Kamran (18) and Umar (2)along with Mohammed Hafeez (0) within the first 10 overs toseal the issue as Pakistan were all out for 206 in 46.1 overs.
Broad started the slide in the second over of thePakistan innings when he got Hafeez caught by skipper AndrewStrauss. In the sixth over of the innings he brought one backto trap Kamran plumb in-front. His brother Umar also didn''tsurvive too long as he edged one to Matt Prior behind thestumps.
While regular captain Shahid Afridi didn''t play, none ofthe established batsmen save Younis could make a significantcontribution. Stand-in-captain Misbah-ul Haq (25) and thetalented Ahmed Shehzad (26) didn''t score much as the inningsnever gained any sort of momentum.
While Misbah was trapped leg before by Paul Collingwood,Shehzad was cleaned up by James Anderson.
Later, Broad came back for his second spell to removePakistan''s top scorer Younis Khan (80). He also dismissedWahab Riaz who was the last Pakistan wicket to fall as hecompleted a five-for.
Earlier, England team management''s decision to open withKevin Pietersen clicked well as the star batsman scored 66in team''s total of 273 in 49.3 overs at the
Apart from Pietersen''s half century, former skipperCollingwood contributed 65 as England were all-out in 49.3overs. Young pacer Junaid Khan who replaced an injured SohailTanvir at the last moment was the pick of the bowlers grabbingthree for 44 in his eight over spell. Wahab Riaz also tookthree wickets for 52.
Although Pietersen didn''t really smash the Pakistanbowlers all over the park but he did play sensibly adding 80runs for the third wicket with Ian Bell (39, 58 balls, 2x4).
Pietersen scored his runs of 78 deliveries hitting threeboundaries and a six in the process.
After Pietersen and Bell fell in quick succession it wasCollingwood and Ravi Bopara (35) who added 82 runs for thefifth wicket just when it looked that Pakistan bowlers will berunning through the England middle-order.
However England had a mini-collapse in the end as theylost their last five wickets for only 12 runs.
Brief Scores: England 273 in 49.3 overs (K Pietersen66, P Collingwood 65, I Bell 39) beat Pakistan 206 in 46.1overs (Y Khan 80, Misbah -ul Haq 25, S Broad 5/25).

Today's Most Comprehensive Practitioner's Guide to Modern Equity Analysis
Professional equity analysts must contend with a number of strong forces, each pulling in separate but equally relentless directions. Applied Equity Analysis ties these disparate elements into a seamless whole, and presents a clear, complete equity analysis picture.
Written from the working analyst's point of view, in a singularly candid style that is both thought provoking and illuminating, Applied Equity Analysis covers:
Applied Equity Analysis emphasizes techniques that work on a day-to-day basis, rather than traditional but often impractical academic approaches. By combining a solid discussion of finance and investment theory with techniques popular among today's buy- and sell-side analysts, it presents a picture of stock investment analysis that is analytically rigorous, aggressively uncompromising, and based on earningsthe true driving force of Wall Street.
"The equity analyst's job is to present a position, supported by financial and non-financial evidence. Data unnecessary to the argument are, in a word, unnecessary. However, the analyst must understand all the data, relevant or not. The ultimate goal of the equity analyst is the exploitation of any difference between a stock's price and its value."
From Chapter 1
Applied Equity Analysis is about understanding all the data. Written by former JP Morgan managing director James Englishan adjunct professor of finance at the Columbia University School of Business, honored by The Wall Street Journal for his stock analysis skillsthis innovative book treats valuation as a practical tool rather than a theoretical exercise. Its integrated approach shows you how to build straight-line connections between a firm's fundamental competitive situation and its stock performance, by combining an understanding of a firm's competitive strengths and weaknesses with accurate financial statement analysisto build a more complete model of a firm's future stock market performance
Combining a solid discussion of finance and investment theory with techniques frequently used by working buy- and sell-side analysts, Applied Equity Analysis discusses:
On today's Wall Street, equity analysts must focus on a firm's ability to produce returns that exceed capital costs, and then estimate the firm's future power to maintain and increase those returns. Let Applied Equity Analysis supply you with in-depth examples and explanations of Wall Street's most important equity analysis toolsand give you a hands-on, real-world handbook for equity analysis in today's complex financial marketplace.
James English is currently an adjunct assistant professor of finance at Columbia University School of Business. He spent twenty years with JP Morgan serving in many positions, including managing director of JP Morgan Capital, the firm's venture capital unit. In his over quarter-century career in finance, English practicedand become proficient invirtually every one of the field's subspecialties: commercial banking and credit analysis, corporate treasury and foreign exchange, capital markets, mergers & acquisitions, venture capital, and sell-side equity analysis.

Holy Land: patients suffer as wall blocks access to hospitals
Israel's partition wall is now preventing more than 10,000 chronically-ill Palestinians from getting to hospital - say three leading medical organisations. Over 100,000 pregnant women will not have access to healthcare and 130,000 Palestinian children may not be immunised once the barrier is finished. Doctors from Human Rights-Israel, Medicins du Monde, and the Palestinian Red Crescent Society have launched a joint campaign to highlight the impact of the barrier on healthcare services. They say almost a third of West Bank villages will suffer from lack of access to a health system in each region once the structure is finished. "The wall has put Palestinian healthcare at risk, both for patients and medical staff that have difficulties accessing or are denied access to hospitals," said Medicins Du Monde president Francois Jeanson. Ruchama Marton, a psychiatrist who heads Physicians for Human Rights-Israel, said the wall would have a damaging effect on both Israelis and Palestinians. She said: "The main goal of the wall is to hide the Palestinians from the Israelis because otherwise it may be possible to identify with their suffering and see them as human beings." Israel says the barrier is necessary to prevent Palestinian suicide attacks. For more information and factsheets on the wall visit: www.stopthewall.org/ Source: Amos Trust

Princess Diana: Sending her Love to Willy & Kate on their Marriage – 29 April 11
Princess Diana ( Born -1 July 1961 ) was a true Princess and was a very proud loving mother of William and Harry . She wants to conveys her message of Love to her sons, who are so far away from her heart that she can't even embrace them or kiss on their soft cheeks and foreheads.
Princess Diana asked me to convey to her sons. Princess Diana said "Mummy loves you. Yes , Mummy loves you Willy & little Harry everyday and will guard you. I want to see you both (Bill and Harry) very happy. Look after each other. You ought to be strong and brave and independent.
If you want to buy the original of my Oil on Canvas Art work, please send your offers on my email: firstname.lastname@example.com
The inspiration for this painting is Dreamtime big way, I would not like to confess this and share at all. Here are some excerpts – Yes, Princess Diana lives in Egypt with Dodi and both are very happy and having a great time together. The couple told me to pass on their message and draw If I can do it . I can let people know they are happy and she is one of the Egyptian Queen from the past. She does miss people sometimes. Princess Diana loves her sons and greatly misses them and wants them to look after themselves.

The Egyptian Civilisation is 3000 year old. The pharaohs ruled for over 1000 years and still their mummies are preserved in Pyramids, like Diana and Dodi's burial sites in UK. The physical bodies do die but sprit is immortal. Princess Diana is princess of heart and lives in the heart of the people encouraging them to continue her unfinished work to make this world in to Heaven, NOW
By the way , In September 1991, Princess Diana had visited all these Egyptian Pyramids , The Great Sphinx , Abu Simble 1250 BC Temples , The valley of Kings and Thew Valley of Queens their burial sites in Pyramids there is the royal cemetery. A Pyramid with cremation is called tomb in the valley is the one that belongs to the famous Queen Nefertari, the principal consort of King Ramses II
Do I believe in after Death Experience ? Even thinking is so nerve wrecking,…… can't say for sure. but looks like something does exists. I am amazed that I did this painting.

- Sold Date:
- Source: eBay UK
Pair of original United States 40/8 Veteran's Association parade side hats. I purchased them together so pressume they belonged to the same ex-serviceman. I believe '9 Penna' was a branch of the organisation from the state of Pennsylvania. Both are in a very good condition with only a few very minor moth nips. One of the hats could be 1920's/30's although the other is clearly dates from the 1960's and appears to signify some form of role wirthin the Association. Unusual items which don't turn up that often.The 40 and 8 is an Organisation of Veterans of the United States Armed Forces, who's official name is "La Societe des Quarante Hommes et Huit Chevaux" which is French for 'The Society of Forty Men and Eight Horses'. The Association started in 1920 when Joseph W. Breen and 15 other members of the American Legion who were veterans of WW1 came together and founded it as an honour for certain Legion members. '40/8' comes from the train box cars that were used to transport soldiers and horses to the front. The max. capacity of the cars was 40 men or 8 horses and this was stencilled on the side of the carriages. This form of transport was a misery to the soldiers and the Association used it as it's name to make some light of this. I understand the organiation chose horizon blue as it's colour in recognistion of the uniforms ... read more

Robert W. Keyes , IBM Watson Research Center
Quantum computing has attracted considerable interest in the past decade as a possible way to deal with certain intractable problems of conventional digital computing. Quantum computers built using the versatile methods of solid-state technology are attractive because the many thousands of devices needed for such a computer could be fabricated with well-established technologies. However, the imperfections of solid-state devices constructed in laboratories and factories will limit the use of solid-state devices in quantum computing.
The challenge for solid-state quantum computing is to find a way to use devices without precise knowledge of their physical characteristics.

Hermes Diaktoros visits a remote island that is home to an ancient icon famed for its miraculous powers. But something about the Virgin troubles him, and Hermes calls on an old friend to confirm his suspicions that the icon is a fake. Ready to hand the matter over to the authorities, Hermes intends to leave - until the island's icon painter is found dead at sea. Did he die of natural causes or by a wrathful hand? What secret is a dishonest gypsy keeping? And what haunts the ancient catacombs beneath the bishop's house?

Toys pouring in for children with medical difficulties
Mon, 10 Dec 2012 17:41:18 GMT —
COLUMBIA (WACH) -- Students from Holly Beard's Human Growth and Development Class at Midlandsâ??s Technical College donated more than 180 toys to the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Columbia Monday morning.
The studentsâ?? donation will be given to families whose children are being treated at Palmetto Healthâ??s Children Hospital.
Beardâ??s class has been collecting toy donations for the Ronald McDonald House since 2008 and each year donates to hospital.
Beard says she started the project to help teach her students an important life lesson.
"I hope that they remember that they need to contribute to the community when they graduate. They just donâ??t need to take their knowledge with them and use it at their work place but rather they need to help other people,â?? said Holly Beard, Midlands Technical College, Professor.
Sixty students took part in the project.
Each year hundreds of families are served by Ronald McDonald House Charities of Columbia.
These families seek shelter while their child(ren) are undergoing medical treatment or when dealing with an injured child.

Immediately the quest for a replacement began, ending with the launch of the US-sourced Explorer in 1996.
It was among the biggest in its class and held the title of the world's best-selling 4WD wagon because Americans loved it. But, with a leaf-sprung rear end, it could not hide its truck origins, and there also were some noticeable compromises in the left-to-right-hand-drive conversion. The five-speed manual was linked to a 119 kW pushrod 4.0-litre V6, while the more modern and more popular five-speed automatic model used an overhead cam 153 kW 4.0-litre V6.
With a spacious cabin, Ford Australia engineered a third-row seat option that became available in 1997. And, after complaints about the soft ride and handling, a locally developed damper package was offered from 1998. The firmer dampers, with a revised and newly self-levelling rear suspension, became standard with the face-lifted Explorer in 1999.
Towards the end of 2001, the vastly improved model arrived with a fully independent suspension and addition of a strong 178 kW all-alloy 4.6-litre V8 mated to the five-speed auto. This was standard in the top-of-the-range Limited model and optional on the XLT, which still offered the slightly improved 4.0-litre V6, now with 157 kW.
-- Russell Williamson
Our pick
With vastly improved road manners, the 2001 Explorer became a credible alternative in the local market and the minimal spend for the V8 is worth it for the extra grunt.

PFC and A2LA Partner to Develop the First Internationally-Recognized Cannabis Laboratory Accreditation Program
Manufacturers, dispensaries, caregivers and patients alike seek reassurances that the medicinal Cannabis products, materials or services they produce or purchase can be trusted to meet their own expectations, conform to prevailing purity requirements, and are truly safe to sell and consume. In practice, this means that the source Cannabis material is submitted to, and is tested by, a trusted, appropriately-accredited laboratory. Choosing a technically competent laboratory for such analyses serves to minimize potential risks inherent to producing, supplying and/or receiving essential, pharmacologically-active products. A laboratory's technical competence is therefore crucial to the manufacturer, the dispensary, the cultivator and, most importantly, the patient.
Appropriate testing of Cannabis products and materials can be both expensive and time consuming, even if they are done correctly the first time. If initial processing or testing is carried out incorrectly, the costs and time involved in re‐testing can be even higher – as the product may have appeared to have failed to meet specifications or expectations. Accordingly, choosing a technically competent laboratory can serve to minimize chances of re‐testing or engaging costly recall plans. Choosing a competent laboratory can be difficult, as it involves finding an organization with the appropriate certifications and/or accreditation.
Development of a universal, internationally-recognized Cannabis-specific laboratory accreditation program – between ASA and American Association for Laboratory Accreditation (A2LA) –will significantly advance both patient and public safety, globally, and will solidify PFC as a provider of a vital, accredited Cannabis certification program {Please insert link to Press Release}. The program will combine the expertise and resources of the country's largest accreditation body with the scientific rigor and knowledge base of the nation's largest medical Cannabis advocacy group. Accredited and certified laboratories under this program will achieve the clarity of the principle of "tested once, accepted everywhere in the world."
For more than a decade, ASA has worked with technical committees composed of global experts from industry, consumer associations, academia, clinical researchers, NGOs, and government – working to create true and reliable standards for Cannabis and the Cannabis industry. Over the last 10 years, ASA and PFC, with their partner groups, have published the Cannabis Best Practices with AHPA and the AHP Cannabis Monograph – standards that have been adopted in Cannabis-medicine regulations by 16 States thus far.
The ISO and PFC standards were developed for, and continue to be improved by, a consensus of prevailing scientific understanding, and will further ASA's mission of ensuring safe access to Cannabis for research and therapeutic use. Implementation of and compliance with the requirements of the PFC and A2LA program will effectively address those concerns associated with Cannabis health and human life, and will legitimize and streamline those laboratories tasked with serving the Cannabis community.
Implementation of a Cannabis-specific laboratory accreditation program – based upon the requirements of both ISO/IEC 17025 and ASA' s Patient Focused Certification (PFC) Program – will result in far-reaching benefits for the myriad of laboratories tasked with Cannabis analysis. A few of the benefits are as follows:
- Confidence in meeting regulatory requirements
- Enhanced quality of processes and procedures
- Reduced errors, preventing re-testing of products
- Enhanced reliability and confidence in results Increased technical competency of staff and personnel
- Increased client satisfaction
- Improved reputation and image of Cannabis testing labs
- International acceptance
Additionally, implementation of ISO/IEC 17025 Cannabis laboratory specific accreditation provides a system for continuous improvement of daily laboratory practices. The A2LA/PFC Cannabis laboratory accreditation program will be internationally recognized by ILAC, which means that the resulting analysis can be a "passport" when submitting results to contractors, governments, or manufacturers that require independently verified laboratories.

Resume writing and career advice
job search tips/workplace trends
Featuring career experts, recruiters, hiring managers and decision makers who help you get hired
American Staffing Association survey: Technology and personal contacts is what leads to job offers
More than three in four adult job seekers in the U.S. prefer personal contacts when searching for work rather than just relying on technology, according to the results of a new American Staffing Association Workforce Monitor survey, conducted online by Harris Poll.
"A combination of technology and personal contacts is the winning strategy while on the job hunt," said Richard Wahlquist, ASA president and chief executive officer. "Even with all of the recent advances in Web-based job sourcing, some things never change. Your network of friends, former colleagues, and family members still might be the key to your finding your ideal job."
Personal Contacts Lead to Job Offers
Three of the top five ways job seekers land a job are "high touch," according to the survey findings. Word of mouth was the most popular means (43%)—followed by job board websites and employer websites (both at 30%). Contacts or acquaintances with prospective employers (30%) and staffing and recruiting companies (25%) also rank high as resources that led to job offers.
Three in four (77%) actually prefer human interaction when searching for a job, according to the ASA Workforce Monitor.
Job Seekers Like Technology…Until It Gets Too Personal
Almost half of recent job seekers (46%) view the Web as the most helpful resource when looking for work, according to the survey results. Job seekers like the visibility that technology can offer when it comes to sharing their résumés (80%), but a majority feel uneasy about giving so much personal employment information to websites (61%), according to the ASA Workforce Monitor results.
Word of Mouth and Web Dominate Job Search Tools
The most popular tools job seekers use when looking for work are word of mouth (63%), job board websites (62%), and employer websites (60%). Other popular job-hunting tools are newspaper help wanted ads or job listings (52%), and contacts or acquaintances at prospective employers (48%). Four in 10 job seekers report using a staffing and recruiting company during the job hunt (42%).

Renee's Side
Steve's Side
Entree Price:
Total Bill
Would we go back:
422 University Ave W
St Paul
• Steamed dumplings $4.50 (shared)
• Scallop with chili pepper $13.95
Yum, yum, and yum. Little Szechuan reminds me of Tea House, two separate menus, busy, great food. I would have a difficult time picking one or the other if forced.
The dumplings were pretty standard nothing too spectacular, but nothing to sneeze at either. My scallops were the best I have ate in ages. They were spicy, but not so much that you couldn't breathe, just enough to take a couple of extra sips of water, but still allowing the flavor to come through. To top it off each piece of scallop was cooked to perfection, no small feat as there were a good 20 pieces on the plate. Steve's lamb was amazing, I am not a huge fan of lamb, I don't think I have had it prepared the right way maybe, but this was outstanding. I could their lamb every night for a week and not get tired of it.
I think the best thing about Little Szechuan is that I now know of two great places to get Szechuan Chinese, one east, one west, so no matter where I am in the metro I can always sate that hunger.
• Lamb cooked with cumin $12.95
Little Szechuan packs a punch that most American Chinese restaurants pull. They include real spices, real garlic, and real heat in their dishes. The lamb cooked with cumin was outstanding. It was medium spicy, not overpowering, but the combination of cumin and other spices blended perfectly with the generous portion of succulent lamb. There was definitely enough to box up for lunch the next day, which was just as delightful as the night before.
The steamed dumplings were serviceable. They were standard steamed dumplings, but they arrived at our table at room temperature, which was disappointing. I would order them again, but I would hope that the night we went was just an oversight on a busy night.
Unless you go early, you will experience a wait. It looked like there was going to be about an hour wait on a particularly busy Saturday night. I didn't hear one complaint.
Parking is readily available on University Avenue, although it is a busy street. The excellent, authentic food is more than enough to compensate for any minor inconvenience you might experience getting to the restaurant or waiting for a table. Little Szechuan and the Tea House are, hands down, the best Chinese restaurants in the Twin Cities in my opinion.

'Humanitarian crisis' after huge 106pc rise in homeless families
THE number of homeless families in the city has jumped by 106pc within the year.
The Dublin Simon Community's annual review found that there has also been a shocking 99pc increase of children in emergency accommodation while the number of adults has risen by 44pc.
Speaking at the event, representative Sam McGuinness said that the Government's response has been too slow to stem the tide of homelessness and we are in the midst of a "humanitarian crisis".
"The numbers speak for themselves and clearly interventions to date have not been effective," Mr McGuinness said.
"We are asking Minister Kelly today, how bad does the situation need to get before the Government acts decisively and quickly? What will it take for the homeless emergency to get the emergency response needed?"
The organisation noted that the number of people who are classed as long-term homeless has jumped by 53pc.
"Exactly one year ago when 1,598 individuals were stuck in emergency accommodation in the Dublin region each night, we warned that inadequate, temporary measures were becoming long-term, and that the Government's plan to end long term homelessness by 2016 was clearly unachievable unless immediate action was taken," Mr McGuinness said.
"Twelve months on, despite constant warnings from organisations across the sector, we are now faced with a situation that none of us could have imagined.
"Not only has the number of people who are long-term homeless grown by 53pc, individuals who are stuck in emergency accommodation has increased to 2,298 in Dublin.
"Even more disturbing is the 1,275 children and 607 families who are without a home in the Dublin region alone," Mr McGuinness said. "This is outrageous and unacceptable."
Lord Mayor of Dublin Criona Ni Dhalaigh, who was speaking at the launch of the report, said that the Dublin Simon Community has worked with our most vulnerable in society for over 45 years.
"As they continue to see the new faces of homelessness coming to them for support, their dedicated teams of staff and volunteers provide invaluable assurance, security and encouragement, helping people, children and families move on from the trauma of homelessness towards a safe and secure home of their own," Ms Ni Dhalaigh said.
The charity said that the soup run has distributed over 50,000 sandwiches, hot drinks and snacks to people sleeping rough on the streets.
Over 200,000 meals were provided across residential services.
Over 70pc of clients accessing the organisation's services were deemed "long-term homeless" having been homeless longer than six months.
In addition, the Simon Community recorded:
• A 112pc increase in the number of people accessing homelessness prevention and tenancy sustainment services.
• 260 children assisted by the prevention services.
• 75pc of clients who accessed the Tenancy Advice service and at risk of homelessness were from the private rented sector.
• The number of people accessing the services in Kildare, Wicklow and Meath rose by 12pc.
• 309 personal training sessions were conducted by the Health and Wellbeing service.
As part of Simon Week activities, the group are running a Homeless Forecast Campaign, where they are asking everyone to sign a letter to An Taoiseach and the Tanaiste urging them to bring the homeless and housing crisis to the top of the Cabinet's agenda.

Bah! Can't watch it - old Mac can't update Flash! I have NEVER eaten a big Mac and only been in a Macdonalds once*. Is this a record?
*I had a cup of black hot water they called "coffee".
I read some of the comments on this when it was posted by Design Week and couldn't believe that they thought this was some kind of revelation!
All food is retouched, primped and falsely inflated to look good - that's what home economists do at photoshoots. Custard gets substituted with emulsion paint, drops of moisture are added on after...anything to make it look good or keep it looking good under the studio lights.

Police appeal against sentence for P and C rip-off
The police service is appealing against what it calls an inadequate sentence given to a Cairns woman who defrauded a parents and citizens association.
Earlier this month in the Cairns Magistrates Court, Kim Maree Bekkers, 44, was given an 18-month suspended jail sentence.
She pleaded guilty to stealing $44,600 from the Redlynch State College Parents and Citizens Association over several years.
At the time, she was an executive officer of the association.
The Cairns Magistrates Court also ordered Bekkers to repay the money within three years and accepted her lawyers' arguments that her employment prospects were better if she was not sent to prison.
However, the Queensland Police Service has filed an appeal in the District Court, describing the sentence as "manifestly inadequate".
A hearing date for the appeal is yet to be set.

From Altoona Mirror:
Blair County children are feeling the effects of a statewide reduction of funding and availability of public pre-kindergarten, an obstacle that could affect their school readiness, according to Blair County Head Start.
There have been severe state budget cuts to pre-kindergarten programs such as Head Start that have forced them to cut hours and accommodate fewer children, Planning and Development Coordinator Erica Peterson said.
Blair County Head Start - a comprehensive program for children of low-income families that addresses emotional, social, health, nutritional and psychological needs - has lost about $87,000 in state funds in the past year, Peterson said.
The loss has affected some programs so severely that the former six-hour days have been cut nearly in half, resulting in a significant loss of instruction time, Peterson said.
"If the state keeps cutting our budgets and we have to reduce our hours with [children], it's so much more difficult to get them to where they need to be with their peers when they start kindergarten," she said. "We have to keep doing more with less, and it hurts the children, especially at such a crucial age."
The county Head Start currently works with 428 children, with 70 more on the waiting list.
"It's just unfortunate because these kids are just waiting to get in who really need our services," Peterson said. "If they have to wait too long, they might miss out altogether, and that's certainly not good for their school readiness."
The inability to accommodate more children comes at an especially inopportune time. The number of children younger than 5 years old living in low-income families - which would qualify them for Head Start's programs - has grown statewide and locally since the 2000 census.
According to the 2006-08 American Community Survey done by the U.S. Census Bureau, 50 percent of children in Blair County are living in low-income families. The statistics were included in an annual school readiness report released earlier this week by Pennsylvania Partnerships for Children.
Statewide, about 40 percent of children are living in low-income families, the report said.
It's possible that the financial situation throughout the country due to the recession has increased those numbers even more since 2008, Pennsylvania Partnerships for Children spokeswoman Kathy Geller Myers said.
"What's happened has resulted in a a lot of unemployment, and families are just barely getting by," she said. "A lot of them are living in poverty, and their children are losing health insurance and other things they need, especially at such a young age."
Joan Benso, president and CEO of PPC, said it's important to make sure every child has the opportunity to enter school ready to learn and thrive.
"The formative years between birth and 5 cannot be recaptured," she said. "So we need to do everything we can to ensure young children get the early learning experiences that create the foundation for a successful life."

Much better...
...Then the previous two. This one actually brought out a chuckle and made me smile. It also actually made sense for once...
The plot was pretty predictable, but it was still averagely funny. As usual, you could have expanded the storyline much more, and a longer movie would have resulted in a better plot.
Layout and audio were as usual great and pretty realistic.

Like the previous volume, had the potential to be way better, adn with more time, im sure you could have found several different ideas that you could have expanded. As far as the humour, it was average and didnt exactly make complete sense.
Audio and Layout were realistic at least and that sure got ur points up a bit.
Overall, once again, with more work this could shape up to be much better...

Good for a KK movie tho, right?
KK Nes Vol 02 PaKK Man

ok, so not that bad a movie. Im afraid i didnt really apreciate the humour, because the movie was way too short, there were soo many directions that you could have taken. I'd have liked to see how the ghosts reacted , or maybe the food thingies could have done something during the drug addiction.
layout was good however, and the realistic game sounds helped too. It would have been a bit better if the screen had been bigger though.
Overall, not a bad job, but making it longer could work in your favour.

Metal Slug - War Scene 2
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Not bad...
Im not a particular fan of this kind of game, with the same movements over and over again, not much my style. However, this one caught my attention...
Sprites were amazing, brilliant detail with smooth movement. Id like it if the sprites had more variation in their movement, maybe you could set them to a particular movement.
The backgrounds were good too, with good detail, matching with the sprites. They were however a bit too small so maybe the scene could be bigger.
As a game, it tends to get boring rapidly so maybe you could put in something which makes the scene play out, with the sprites killing each other and whatnot. Im not sure if this is possible, but any game like that would sure as hell catch my attention more.
Audio was good too, and looped quite well. It got a bit repetitive however, and it lacked a sense of depth.
Overall, not a bad job, detail was incredible, and with some more work this could shape up to be a good game.

Not a bad attempt, seeing as its ur first...
Well, u put some work into it, that always counts. I took soem tiem on lvl 4 cos of the bug but i eventually got through.
Graphics were pretty simple, mostly freehand shapes. This makes the game look somewhat generic so you should watch out for it. Animation when it came to moving objects was decently smooth and not many glitches on this part.
The real highlight was the audio. You chose a particularly good piece and if u put in a theme whihc matched with it u could go far.
Overall, not a bad attempt for ur first try but u could definetely do better.
=Review Request Club=
u might want to woerk on ur speling lol. But thanks for the review, Since I was a noob at the time, I couldn't debug anything for shit. But in my next game, most of that will be taken care of. Please fix your spelling next time, I could barely read the part about the audio.
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars
Quite a smoot animation, but the fact that the only thing which happened was that the dino moved wasn't exactly taht helpful to you score. Its very frustrating in some aspects as those tiny moving things which you called cave men are amazingly annoying and they had me banging my head against the key board after a couple of games (not sure if that's a good thing...)
Graphics were pretty simple too. It was only black and white and no background to provide any depth. Not a bad idea on this part but u really need to improve those graphics and the animation could do with a bit of a change...
It wasn't a bad concept, but it needs some work. i've listed a few points below which might help with this
-You need to vary the storyline a bit. What i was thinking was that as the game progressed, the dino could move from stone age to modern, making the game getting more difficult as it went by. As u moved on, you could make the dino discover new abilites such as swat (waves its hand to destroy aircraft), block (protects itself from incoming missiles which get fired from more advanced enemies). Dunno about anything else but you could work on this. What i've told u is just an idea. ;)
-As supersteph54, a powerup system always increases ur score and it always helps to make gameplay interesting. Colours would be nice to help the user to quickly understand what kind of a power up it is.
-the high score system is great, as it provides the user with the opportunity to see where he stands on a global level.
-You definetely need a menu as nto many people see the controls next to the preloader, me included.
-Try to paragraph ur author's comments too. it helps if people see it in small paragraphs. more people read it that way ;)
Audio was pretty basic, with the same basic thingy looping over and over again, it got on my nerves prety quickly, and the fact that u can't switch it off, got my nerves on even more.
If u could put in a sfx or music off button, it helps as most users just cant stand playing with repetitive music going on and on. trust me, it gives u headaches.
Not a bad job, but u definetely need to improve on this one.
-Add a background
-Make audio more interesting or provide a switch off option
-Include a menu.
-Work on what i mentioned in terms of storyline.
-powerups could help too
keep up your good work though.

P.S. you have the honour of being the person to get my longest flash review yet. Only 1500 characters left lol...
Wow. That was some review. My first time back online in over two weeks, when I submitted this game and I've got quite a bit of reading to do.
This was just something simple to do because I hadn't made anything in a while. I had already finished the game before I realized there were no instructions. I added it to the side of the preloader because as soon as you hit "play" the game would start up. And it would be loaded quickly enough that you could go straight from the preloader to info without the game being fully loaded.
I really had no storyline to speak of nor any reason to be stomping the cavemen. The story was added as an afterthought to justify the caveman stomping, and give an excuse for the different effects the cavemen had when stepped on. The baby dinos were there to make some kind of semi-plausible life counter. As I couln't figure out what else might put an end to the dino's rampage.
I sort of thought that the mountains were a background. I was trying to do this quickly and no colors meant no time spent shading or color adjustments.
I really should have made a mute button though thanks for pointing that out, I usually do. Or put in a volume control, which makes a mute button kind of superfluous.
As for the paragraphing of my comments I'll do my best to make future commentary indented. Thanks for the execessively long review.

NGADM Review:
This was a great piece, and very very enjoyable to listen to. I can't say I expected to hear this from you, but the surprising turn of events was in the end quite welcome. You've got some excellent composition, fantastic harmonies, and that guitar just sounds amazing. Realism-wise, it's pretty much perfect, with a few teensy touches of artificial notes, but nothing major. The atmosphere is just great, and the piece is smooth and well-structured.
I would've liked to hear that voice in the beginning again throughout the piece, as I feel as if it could have provided an extra feel that would've worked pretty well. Also, while the guitar sounds fantastic like I've already said, there were some small stutters at points, and in some cases it sounded a bit unrealistic in the sense that there's no physical way to actually play that section. Nice use of those castanets though, helped the atmosphere a lot.
Overall, great piece, even if it's a deviation from your usual stuff. Keep up the good work!
Score: 8.6/10
Hey there Echo,
thanks a lot for review. Sorry for my late reply, but i have been really busy until the middle of decembre. I am glad you liked the composition and found the sound realistic - that was what my focus was on.
I would have loved to use the voice more often, but EWQL voices of passion is quite limited :(
I dont know if this piece really would be impossible to play. I have seen some really highskilled guitarists who played stuff like this and i think it would have been as fast and difficult as this piece.
Thanks a lot for your kind review. Merry christmas and a happy new year!

NGADM Review:
Contrary to what you might think, this was actually a really really great effort at orchestral, particularly considering it's not your normal genre. You've got great ideas and really good instrumentation, and the overall structure was pretty well-worked, albeit a bit bland at points.
My chief complaint with this was probably the lack of depth. For an orchestral piece, it lacked a certain texture to it that's normally necessary. Chords, alternate melodies, backing instruments, etc would have gone a long way to solve this, instead of just front-side instruments and percussion. That being said, I love how you managed to mix in your normal style into something which is experimental for you, as I know that's not an easy thing to pull off.
Overall, great piece, with a lot of potential. You've definitely got some good ideas, and you put them to great use, so keep up the good work!
Score: 8/10
Hey Echo, thanks for the review!
I want to ask for clarification on one point though - what do you mean by "chords, alternate melodies, backing instruments"? Like, at 2:20 you're in the middle of a 16 bar chord progression (that's a lot of chords) and there are like 3 melodies going on. Do you mean I should have had a break in that section?
I also don't totally understand the difference between front and backside instruments. This is just because I'm an orchestral noob. Could you PM me or something? Thanks!

Once again, another very high quality submission. You've got catchy melodies and some crazy addictive instrumentation. Harmonies and melodies are well-structured and fit together nicely, especially that superb main melody. Ending is great, which is something you don't get in a lot of songs, so kudos for that.
That being said, there were a few mixing issues in the piece, particularly because the track is generally so loud, making it sound a bit too compressed for my tastes. The percussion got a bit obnoxious at points, although it wasn't that much of a big deal in the whole picture.
Overall, great piece, really catchy and upbeat, with a nice driving rhythm. Keep it up!
Score: 8.8/10

Nice pic. Very nice. The detail is incredible. If only it were bigger and had more vertical lenght, it'd fit nicely as a wallpaper.
On to the pic itself. Starting with the background, i loved the dark purple gradient you used, as somehow it seemed to mix perfectly with the foreground picture. I also liked the fact that the background faded to black as it approached the sig. As for the streams of light thingies, i liked the fact that they werent completely solid, but more separate beams. I also liked the helixes spiralling around them, and the white splashes of paint drops which gave the pic some extra cool factor.
Overall, its a fantastic piece, with a great use of the division of thirds to draw the eye to the main section, but with enough detail in the remainder to allow the viewer to enjoy every pixel of the pic. Nice work!

Yeah, I did want this to be used as a wallpaper...kinda of stretched out but it still looks good.

Firing My Laza
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Not bad...
Starting off with the face, it has a decent amount of detail put into it, and the bold colours served to contrast well with the background and general abstract nature of the rest of the pic, However, i feel that the eyes didnt match well with the face, as while the face was sharp and clear, the eyes were all fuzzy and blurred up.
As for the laser, its pretty decent, with a great use of perspective to help along in making the pic more realistic. I also noticed the fact that the blue particle things didnt follow the helical shape that the white ones did, meaning that while the white particles spiralled around the laser, alternating from front to back, the blue particles seemed to be constantly at the front. Other then that, i liked the realism in the laser, with an interesting use of shading to give it more depth and to not make it look like a big blue line.
Overall, a decent piece of art, with a great background which helped the main image along and decent work on the main image itself.
=Review Request Club=
The eyes were blurred on purpose.

Well, not bad i suppose...
Its not up to the standards of what i've seen before, but its not bad.
The fact that u included shading in this is a definite imrpovement and helps u on ur way to adding colours.
U put in quite some work on this and it shows, the detail u portrayed was quite good even if it was only a sketch.
What it also needs besides colour is a background which would help to add depth to the picture.
Like i siad before, u have some talent in art and u really should continue to develop it. If u do that, u'll be in the art portal in no time. Not a bad job, keep it up.
