Many noted Judges rely on Wikipedia as authority including defining "Blazing Saddles" and "happy hour," but the US Supreme Court has not yet accepted Wikipedia as authority. The New York Times reported in 2007 that Judge Richard A. Posner of the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit and well-known blogger, in Chicago claimed that "Wikipedia is a terrific resource." Judge Posner went to say:
Partly because it so convenient, it often has been updated recently and is very accurate...It wouldn't be right to use it in a critical issue. If the safety of a product is at issue, you wouldn't look it up in Wikipedia.
However in a recent ruling of US v Larson, US 4th Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Barbara Milano Keenan overturned a jury conviction for violating, and conspiring to violate, the animal fighting prohibition of the Animal Welfare Act, 7 U.S.C. § 2156(a) (the animal fighting statute) because Juror 177 searched Wikipedia for the definition of "sponsor," one of the elements of the offense under the animal fighting statute. The Wikipedia search was determined to be juror misconduct since Juror 177 relied on definitions not provided in court, but Judge Keenan also pointed out that definitions on Wikipedia are subject to change by public edits and therefore Wikipedia is not reliable. Which is an interesting position since Judge Posner feels the opposite.
It seems to me that Wikipedia is a reliable authority for many lawsuits and will be more widely accepted in the future. What do you think?

The Mortgage Credit Directive (2014/17/EU) is relevant to firms that offer consumer finance relating to or secured on residential property. Second charge lenders may need to take the new framework into account in the context of their FCA consumer credit application and compliance preparations. First charge firms also need to be aware of the scope of the changes for their business models.
The Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") has set out the majority of its final rules in PS 15/9. As stated in PS 15/9, the FCA intends to implement the MCD through its existing rules for first charge mortgages wherever possible. The additional rules only apply to mortgages within the scope of MCD, so will not apply to regulated mortgage contracts taken for business purposes or which are otherwise exempt from MCD. This briefing covers some of the points of interest for first charge lenders.
As MCD follows the Mortgage Market Review and changes to consumer credit regulation, the FCA sets relatively contained demands for firms but may have underestimated the extent, and costs, of change - particularly the effect on the commercial viability of niche business lines.
What do firms need to do?
Firms offering lines of consumer finance relating to residential real estate should consider how the new regime applies to their business.
- First charge lenders should assess how they need to amend their practices to comply with the revised rules. Core areas to review include:
- requirements for affordability assessments when a lender:
- takes on a borrower from another lender; or
- makes further advances;
- making binding offers (which may impact decisions in principle or indicative offers); and
- pre-contractual disclosure requirements following the model ESIS.
- requirements for affordability assessments when a lender:
- Firms should consider:
- when to transition to the new approach (see the timetable below);
- how they can make use of the new passporting regime; and
- if passporting into the UK under a UK branch, whether to elect for Financial Services Compensation Scheme top-up cover and disclose this in the European Standard Information Sheet ("ESIS") (see COMP 14.2.1 R).
How are these rules changing
The new FCA rules address a range of measures for implementation that apply to mortgages within the scope of MCD. We have set out some of the points of interest for first charge lenders.
Affordability assessments
While the affordability requirements introduced by the FCA's Mortgage Market Review ("MMR") remain generally the same, additional responsible lending provisions are set out in changes to MCOB 11.6 and 11.7 and new MCOB 11A. The rules require firms to set out the information the client needs to provide in order for the firm to make an affordability assessment and, importantly, must warn customers that it will not be able to enter into an arrangement when the firm is not able to make the assessment.
There is a departure from the existing transitional provisions (in MCOB 11.7) introduced following MMR. These allowed 'mortgage prisoners' with pre-MMR mortgages to switch lenders (provided there was no extra borrowing) or increase their borrowing in order to carry out essential property repairs, in each case without an affordability assessment. However, the FCA has acknowledged that the MMR transitional provisions are not consistent with MCD. While these will fall away for MCD regulated mortgage contracts, firms will want to understand where customers can still benefit from the provisions in MCOB 11.6.3 R.
Practical considerations:
- adjust existing processes to fit within the remit of the amended requirements;
- amend documentation to ensure that it sets out what information the customer needs to provide and by when – checking that this is fair, clear and not misleading;
- ensure staff are trained and informed to apply assessment requirements across all relevant product lines and customers, balancing obligations to treat customers fairly;
- be aware of the important additional provisions in MCOB 11A.2, which prohibit firms from cancelling or varying the terms of an arrangement where the affordability assessment has not been accurately completed;
- take care not to embed processes that lead to arbitrary negative lending decisions or de-risking across groups of potential or existing borrowers. Decision processes need sufficient nuance for individual evaluations and should not lead to systemic poor customer outcomes; and
- give thought to the move to any new process and the logistics of training and document changes as the FCA may make further rule changes to reflect European Banking Authority guidelines on the creditworthiness assessment as well as arrears and foreclosure, expected later in 2015.
The creditworthiness assessment will have a particular impact on "mortgage prisoners" (i.e. existing borrowers who are unlikely to be able to arrange similar mortgages if trying to change lenders or products) for whom allowances were made under the rule changes made following the MMR.
While it is a moot point whether industry practice made much use of this point of flexibility, this is an important development: mortgage prisoners number nearly 4 million borrowers and about 40% of homeowners would not pass such an assessment to qualify for a new loan (see BBC News 24 April 2015). The FCA is keen to ensure some avenues remain so firms will need to think how they treat any mortgage prisoner customers they might have. This will be an area that talks to treating customers fairly.
The European Standardised Information Sheet ("ESIS")
This is a prescriptive and standardised product disclosure document. As the ESIS is an area of maximum harmonisation, the FCA must replicate the MCD requirements in its rules. Although there is a level of similarity to the FCA's current Key Facts Illustration ("KFI") requirement, it is sufficiently different to cause firms to overhaul their current approach. However, the FCA has confirmed that the timing of this disclosure shall be kept the same as the KFI in order to minimise disruption into firms' sales processes, including maintaining certain trigger events in MOCB 7.6 that require additional KFI/ESIS disclosures.
- In the transitional period, firms may continue to use the KFI approach but if it does so, it must make top up disclosures (see the MCOB transitional provisions, such as MCOB TP 45-48).
- The ESIS rules are set out in the new MCOB 5A (MCD pre-application disclosure).
- Look for detailed rules particularly in relation to the messages to be given with information on a MCD regulated mortgage contract, the form and content of an ESIS and the timing when it must be provided.
- Follow the FCA model ESIS and its required content (see MCOB 5A Annex 1R and MCOB 5A.5.2 R, as well as amendments to the Perimeter Guidance manual and the additional examples in PS 15/9).
There are other circumstances when an ESIS is required (see MCOB 7.6.18 (2) R for an example.) A firm will need to provide an ESIS where a further advance requires an additional agreement within the scope of MCD. Although the rules slightly change going forward, the FCA may consider that continuing to set out total borrowing, debt and cost details at the firm's discretion (not as part of the ESIS) plays to evidence of a firm treating customers fairly and understanding the information needs of customers (Principles 6 and 7). Firms will of course also keep in mind that any information provided to the customer must still meet requirements to be fair, clear and not misleading.
Binding Offer
Where a firm intends to enter into an MCD regulated mortgage contract, it must provide a binding offer set out in an offer document and the offer must be on the basis of the information in the ESIS (see new MCOB 6A.3.1 R). A binding offer must also be made when varying the terms of an MCD regulated mortgage contract. MCOB 6A.3.4 R requires firms to allow customers to have at least seven days as a "reflection period" during which the binding offer must be open for acceptance. The offer document must contain information prescribed in MCOB 6A.3.9 R, as well as the customer's repayment strategy, complaints information, and other required information (e.g. see MCOB 6A.3.17 R, 6A.4 and 6A.5).
Firms are free to continue practices involving draft or indicative offers, where these are non-binding, but must ensure they go on to make an offer which meets the requirements of a binding offer. The use of a binding offer process does not prevent the use of conditions within the offer process (e.g. that a borrower repays other outstanding credit commitments) but it should prevent a firm withdrawing or materially re-writing the loan offer, unless there is a material change of the facts on which the offer was made. Additional clarity is offered in MCOB 6A.3.3 G. Whether firms need to make a change to accommodate this point will very much depend on the current processes in place. Firms must at least review how their model works in substance (not just the name given to each document) to see whether alterations are necessary.
As part of the organisational obligations in MCD, firms are required to adopt and embed (see Article 7 of the MCD) remuneration practices that do not have the cause or effect of encouraging poor conduct within the mortgage industry (see new MOCB 2A.1).
The measures do not necessarily require profound change; many firms will be tackling this as part of compliance with the CRD IV package and these are similar to moves across the financial services industry (e.g. MiFID II). Nevertheless, firms may want to take a lateral glance at emerging FCA guidance on performance management and the MiFID II approach to managing conflicts of interest. This is another area in which firms need to be able to demonstrate they have reviewed and amended their practices.
By avoiding an overly prescriptive route, the FCA rules allows firms to arrive at remuneration, assessment and rewards cultures that do not lead to artificially inflated remuneration levels and ensure that there is continued coalescence between risk and reward. Cutting risk to consumers of financial services meets the regulatory and political agenda and is representative of the intentions of most firms. Firms should play an active role in finding the solution.
Tying practices
Again in keeping with similar moves in other sectors (e.g. packaged bank accounts or general insurance add-ons), firms will not be able to "engage in tying practices" (see new MCOB 2A.2 and Art 12 of MCD) so that firms cannot make the offer of a loan dependent on the customer taking another product. There are limited range of situations when tying is permitted including:
- the product cannot be offered separately from the MCD credit agreement e.g. a secured overdraft;
- requiring a consumer or a close relation to:
- open a payment or savings account to accumulate capital designed for repayment or (broadly speaking) to service the credit;
- invest in a product offering income or capital for repayment for specified purposes linked to the loan; and
- the firm can demonstrate to the FCA that bundling results in a clear consumer benefit.
We anticipate some teething difficulty for firms identifying exactly where the line can be drawn here and firms will need to look at the permitted circumstances closely where they require tied products to be opened.
When do firms need to implement change?
In the UK, firms will have some flexibility in when they move over to MCD compliance and they are presented with a range of dates within which they should comply with the different rules, including:
- firms may elect to make use of transitional provisions to bring some or all of the rules into effect in their business from 21 September 2015 (see for example MCOB TP1.1 – TP 20-44); as part of this firms must decide how to approach "pipeline transactions";
- the FCA expects firms to meet the majority of their rules by 21 March 2016, the date by which Member States should transpose the MCD provisions into national law;
- certain changes to the FCA's Supervision Manual (e.g. in relation to passporting) come into effect on 21 December 2015;
- embed the ESIS by 21 March 2019 (see the MCOB transitional provisions, such as MCOB TP 45-48);
- amendments made to the FCA's Training and Competency sourcebook are subject to transitional provisions effective across a range of dates from 21 March 2017 to 21 March 2019 – the detail should be checked for each firm and rule requirement (see TC TP9); and
- sales data report for second charge mortgages shall be required from 31 March 2017 (see SUP TP1.10 (1)).
The FCA has published a new link setting out FAQs relating to the UK implementation of the MCD.
Additional considerations
Firms will also want to consider other areas, for example:
- changes to their levy contribution, (see the Fees (Mortgage Credit Directive) Instrument in Appendix 2 of PS 15/9 (p 283, FCA 2015/21));
- their approach to complaints handling;
- changes to knowledge and competence assessments for staff, which under MCD now extend to staff involved in product design and underwriting (and further rules are expected later in 2015);
- assessing how they make use of exemptions (e.g. high net worth exemptions (e.g. see new MCOB 5.7 or additional wording in MCOB 7.7.1 R will not apply in the same manner going forward);
- changes to way APRC is calculated for MCD mortgages;
- changes to general information provided to customers (e.g. see new MCOB 7A);
- consumer buy-to-let products (a lighter touch FCA registration regime will apply to this relatively niche area – see the follow up to FCA paper CP 15/3, expected June 2015);
- whether to align non-MCD business with MCD contracts (see new MCOB 1.2.16 R); this may be perceived as scope creep but it does allow firms to deploy one set of systems, documents and processes rather than multiple iterations, allowing for costs streamlining, provided any implications from doing so are understood.
If an MCD exempt bridging loan is treated as if it were an MCD regulated mortgage contract assumptions in MCOB 1.2.18 R should be applied to the APRC (annual percentage rate of charge) calculation, which may lead to the APRC being higher than the APR figure to be used for an exempt loan, which may cause the offer to appear uncompetitive or unappealing to customers (compare the APRC formula in MCOB 10A.2 against the existing APR formula in MCOB 10.3).
This provides a snapshot; however, there are a number of other areas to consider (e.g. foreign currency loans, lifetime mortgages, changes to financial promotions and customer communications provisions). Given the range of changes, first charge firms should be pleased that they should not need to apply for a variation of permissions as a result of the MCD implementation. Our first briefing centred on a general introduction and subsequent briefings will focus on second charge lending, buy to let and other key impacts for mortgage lenders.
The adjustments required for the MCD are likely to trigger IT systems changes, documentation revisions and, potentially, organisational or business remodelling. Firms may want to consider the long term viability of marginal product or business lines: the increased costs of compliance may undermine the commerciality of a product. Contrary to the intended effect of the MCD to open up competition, it may well contract the market.

DEAR PORTLAND MERCURY—Hmmm... an article on the Scorpions playing a show this weekend in the Portland vicinity ["Hurricane of Change," Music, Aug 5]? Take a look at what is happening at Dante's (August 12), less than a week following the Scorpions show: the Michael Schenker Group, with opening act Lynch Mob! FYI, Michael Schenker was a guitarist/songwriter in the 1970s incarnation of the Scorpions—who happened to rock FAR HARDER than the Hurricane referred to in the 1980s hit. As a sort of punchline, let me say that the Michael Schenker Group kind of sucks, as does Lynch Mob—BUT the show probably costs less, it is at a small club in Portland, and it's likely that Michael Schenker still SHREDS.

Deposit = reasonable. Pet rent = insanity ["Petty Cash," I, Anonymous, Aug 5]. I am happy to offer a deposit on the premise that if my kind and gentle HOUSECAT causes damage to the property, I am financially responsible. However, charging rent for a pet is absolutely ridiculous. If I were paying $25 pet rent on my apartment, I would have given my landlord an extra $2,100 over the seven years of my residency, for a cat that has done NO damage. How could any sane, intelligent person justify this?

"Do we finally have closure on the Chasse case?" ["Phoning it In," News, Aug 5] The answer to that is clear and obvious. Not only will the three pigs who murdered James Chasse—Chris Humphreys, Kyle Nice, and Bret Burton—NEVER be held CRIMINALLY liable for the sadistic beating death of Chasse, but they all STILL REMAIN COPS! How many tens of millions of dollars [have] been spent in this case—not just this final settlement, but prior settlements paid out by Multnomah County and [the] ambulance company that should've treated Chasse, the millions the city pissed away denying, stalling, and delaying this case for years? Hell forbid Johannes Mehserle were a Portland cop instead and had shot an innocent, handcuffed, unarmed citizen in the back point-blank on a MAX platform—that fucking pig would be walking around in uniform to this day! And as far as Mayor Sam Adams having strep throat—eh, I dunno. It's probably true. Timing was sure nice [on his part].

DEAR MERCURY—Hello dear sir, my name is Milkkesh, and talking to the hiphop writer of the magazine, [Ryan] Feigh. So, do you like hiphop? When I came first to Oregon I was from Riga in Latvia. My friend Jesse shows me the Portland Mercury by the email and internet. I like hiphop in America and I listen to it not on the radio or "download" buying a CD and enjoying. Do you know "Cool Nutz" [Up & Coming, Aug 5]? Only once my friend made a grill cheese and only in America I've had while I read the paper when you wrote about a hiphop that I also listened. When I visit this next month for my birthday my friend Jesse will take to the show. I enjoy and respect the country and that you show what a true hiphop to others who do not know. Thank you and I love American hiphop music and thank you [Ryan] you are the hiphop from the paper when I read it and listen to "Cool Nutz" here. P.S. I am making a rap and maybe I send it to you because of the respect of your paper and thank you to you [Ryan] Feigh of the Mercury online I had read it and enjoy the music.
GLAD TO HAVE YOU reading, Milkkesh! Let us contribute to your next trip to Portland with two tickets to the Laurelhurst Theater and lunch at No Fish! Go Fish!, where hiphop is shown proper respect and they do things with cheese that will blow your mind.

Death, Dying and Bereavement
In this book, Dr. Jacqueline Watts considers the social context of death and dying in the UK today, and the ways in which this influences service delivery. Care for the dying has become increasingly professionalized, with hospitals, nursing homes, and hospices now being the setting for most deaths. The provision of support for bereaved people has attracted greater attention, with a large increase in the number of trained bereavement counselors working in both charity and clinical settings. The theory and practice of palliative care, hospice development, and a range of grief models that assist in bereavement care, along with the challenges for care practitioners, form the core of the book. Its underpinning themes include diversity, communication, palliative care, meanings of spirituality, and support for bereaved people. These issues are discussed against the general background of health and social care policy, with a particular focus on the review of Scottish palliative care services published in 2008 for the Auditor General of Scotland. Death, Dying and Bereavement provides an excellent overview of palliative care provision and the issues involved for students, health care workers, social workers, managers, policy makers, and other practitioners who come into contact with death and dying in their practice.

|Creamy and oh so good!
First, these are the ingredients I used, but feel free to use whatever vegetables you have in your refrigerator; besides what I used, you can use asparagus, any squash, celery, potatoes, etc. Also, this is a great way to use left over meat. We had 2 or 3 rotisserie chickens a few days ago and honestly, I hate left over chicken, I'll eat it once, but thats about it. In soup, its so delicious, the chicken comes back to life! Anyway, here is my recipe.
|I don't eat bread with my soup, but seemed like a good photo op!
- 1 large Onion, chopped
- 4 cloves Garlic, chopped (no need to make so small, it'll be blended)
- 3 Carrots, cleaned and chopped
- 2 Zucchini, cleaned and chopped
- 1 head broccoli (you can use just the stalks if you're not a stalk lover, you get the nutrients without having to eat them outa soup, but I love the whole "tree"), chopped
- Broth or water
- Chicken leftovers
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon Gram masala
Start by sauteing the chopped onion in olive oil and butter as it gets translucent add the garlic (you don't want to add garlic too soon, because it will burn/brown fast). At this point you can add all the vegetables and the broth or water. I used part broth and part water because I didn't have a lot of broth. I actually made the broth by boiling the bones the meat was on, and strained it right into the soup. Also at this point add a the salt, pepper and gram masala. Start by adding a little, and once its come to a boil, taste the broth, and adjust the flavor. You can always add more, but if you add too much, you'll be sorry!
I cooked the soup until the vegetables were soft, then I used an immersion blender, like this one, to blend all the ingredients. If you have one, you can use a regular blender, but I'm lazy and an immersion blender is easier to clean!
Once the vegetables looked like they were all blended (this does take a little longer than a countertop blender) I added the chicken. The breasts, I cut up into bite sized pieces, but smaller parts of the chicken, I just broke apart and shredded by hand. Its easier and gives it a more organic look.
Since the chicken is cold, I let it come back to a boil, or simmer for a bit and serve! Thats it!
I think most people think you have to have a fatty, cream filled soup for the soup to be creamy and amazing. Maybe I just love vegetables too much, but this soup was so good, and so creamy without a drop of dairy and only about 1 tablespoon of butter.
Try it, and let me know what you think! But don't be afraid to add your own vegetables!

Under Theme Options > Styling > Select a predefined color scheme
it looks like I should be able to "push" or "click" one of the color scheme option buttons to change the color scheme
but nothing happens when I do
So how do I change the color scheme?
Also, are there any video tutorials for the theme?
Hi tompinch,
Yes, you should be able to select any of the color schemes and see the preview of it above. If this isn't happening, try viewing the wordpress back end in another browser in case you have a browser addon or plugin affecting the proper loading of the page. If you are still unable to select the options properly, you may need to re-install the theme again (right over top of the old) in case some files were uploaded incomplete.
As of now I don't believe there are any video tutorials for the them though I have been hoping to get some time to make some.
The topic 'Predefined Color Scheme' is closed to new replies.

We recommend that you only take the USMLEs once you have taken assessment tests which indicate that you are "test ready". These tests are challenging and it has been our experience in communicating with many IMGs who apply to our program that many have taken and failed these tests because they lacked the necessary English skills. Further, many IMGs have never taken such timed standardized exams before and are unfamiliar with test taking strategies. Therefore, we recommend that IMGs never take any of the USMLEs without having concrete evidence that you are ready. Even if you have scheduled a test and postponing it would indicate that you would lose the cost of the examination fee, it is worth losing the cost of the exam. Every time you take any of these exams and do not pass the exam, you decrease your level of competitiveness.
Kaplan students should consult with their professional counselors who will guide them based on the result of your assessment exams.
There are assessment test such as those offered by the National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME) Self-Assessment Services which offer web-based exams to the general public for a fee per examination. Please visit the NBME website for further details.
Studying for the USMLE
Many of our IMG Program participants highly recommend the FIRST AID text books such as the First Aid for the USMLE Step 1 2008 Student-to-Student Guide, First Aid for the USMLE Step 2 CS (Clinical Skills), First Aid for the USMLE Step 2 CK (Clinical Knowledge), and First Aid for the USMLE Step 3 as well as the USMLE preparation text books offered by Kaplan.
Both Kaplan and USMLE World offer web-based questions known as Q-banks (questions banks) which have proven to be an essential part of our IMGs curriculum. There are membership fees for the purchase of these Q-banks. Please refer to each vendor's site for more information.
We highly recommend that you incorporate yourself into a study group. Those of you who are or have been Kaplan students should form highly focused study groups to offer each other peer support. You should speak English with your study group participants at all times. Many of our successful IMGs studied with a dedicated study group for at least a six month period prior to applying to our UCLA IMG Program.

Notable gay photographer Ryan McGinley's short film Entrance Romance (it felt like a kiss) features model Carolyn Murphey in a thrillist display of ecstasy. Shot with a Phantom Camera capable of taking over 1,000 frames per second, the film depicts Murphey being tongued in the mouth by a dog, turning a can of WD-40 into a flamethrower and getting a fishbowl -- complete with living goldfish -- smashed against her head.
Each scene features the Estée Lauder model in various states of calm with counterbalancing, smile-inducing calamity. A chanting soundtrack enhances the mise en scene by amplifying Murphey's subtle movements, while the finale is an almost-haunting, yet whimsical, look at would could quite possibly be a woman gone mad or smiling in the lap of orgasmic satiation. What do you think the film means?

Exotica Erotika
Think about the word "Porn Star" and what image comes to mind? Bleach-blonde hair and fake tits? All too often, my favorite types of women are overlooked in adult movies - hot, spicy Latina girls; beautiful, soulful women of color; and sweet exotic women of color; and sweet exotic women of Asian descent. In this series I bring together women of all races , colors and creeds who have one thing in common - they love to fuck!
Phillip volunteers his wife Claudia to kick off the series by getting it from me in a BIG way! Cute blonde Monti joins in and Phillip gets to fuck her while his wife looks on and encourages him! Right On!
You haven't seen lesbian sex till you've seen lesbian Latina sex! Statuesque Tina Coronado and lovely Vanessa go off on each other! You don't don't' want to miss this! I throw them Ed as an appetizer, and after they quickly devour him, I offer myself as the main course. They attack me with sexual hunger and enthusiasm! It's Hot!
Mia Smiles is so cute & little - how could she possibly take me on? Maybe it's a sexual secret from the Orient, but somehow she manages to fit me inside of her.
The faceless fan is ready, willing and able, so I steer him toward Isabella and Satina, two very fiery Latinas who give him a run for his money and the time of his life!
So check it out, it's all here for you on a high-quality DVD, and watch for more!

Many young adults fresh out of college find it daunting to save for retirement, especially during this economic downturn.
Strategy: Extol the virtues of the "retirement saver's" credit. This little-noticed tax break can provide a big boost to children who earn modest wages.
The amount of the available credit depends on the individual's AGI, his or her tax filing status and the amount contributed toward retirement.
Here's the whole story: The retirement saver's credit is applied to the first $2,000 of voluntary contributions made to a tax-qualified retirement plan such as a 401(k) or an IRA. Although greater contributions are permitted, the maximum amount taken into account is limited to $2,000.
For low-income taxpayers, the credit is equal to 50% of the qualified contribution. This percentage is reduced to 20% for individuals in the next income bracket. Finally, the percentage drops to 10% for the next income gr...(register to read more)

Free Range on Food: Grills, smokers and summer grilling recipes
Joe Yonan: Well, hello there, foodniks, and welcome to Free Range, the chat that smokes. We introduced a fun new feature in the section today: Smoke Signals, a barbecue column by Jim Shahin. Today's topic: smokers big and small. Jim's joining us today to tackle your grilling/smoking questions, as is David Hagedorn, who is no slouch on the grill himself and used it for his avoid-the-heat dinner party menu.So you outdoor cooks will have plenty of resources today. But you can ask anything else you'd like, and we'll do our best. And we'll have giveaway books for the authors of our favorite posts today: "Eating Well on a Budget," source of today's DinMin recipe; and "BBQ Makes Everything Better," by Aaron Chronister and Jason Day, sources of the Bacon Explosion.Let's start cooking.
Smoke Signals: No real question but as a new aficionado of BBQ/Smoking I think its great that there is a monthly column about BBQ! Thanks for continuing to add new features.
Joe Yonan: You're welcome! We're excited about it -- Jim's gonna rock the house.
Ceramic-Coated Cast Iron vs Stainless Steel: Is there really a huge difference between using ceramic-coated cast iron grill grates versus stainless steel? I've read a few different revviews and can't decide if it's worth it to spend twice as much on replacement grates by going with the cast iron? Any thoughts?
Jim Shahin:
No hairnets?: Good morning - Just curious about a food prep question. There are strict health food laws about wearing hair nets, etc., when preparing food in restaurants and food service places. On Next Foodnetwork Star, why do we see loose hair, long hair, untethered, on both men and women? Seems like they should be setting an example.
Joe Yonan: -- or got a haircut.
poached salmon: We are having company, and with this heat I thought I would poach a salmon instead of using the oven, but I need inspiration for the sauce. What would you recommend? (Side dishes include corn salad, and arugula with tomatoes but can be modified to match the sauce.l
Bonnie Benwick: Doesn't this pink peppercorn citrus sauce look nice?
Smoker recommendation: I started making bbque ribs, brisket, etc recently. So far I've had decent results doing the low & slow method in the oven, but would like to start smoking as well. Any recommendations on a smoker for a newbie?
Jim Shahin:
Radishes: I've got radishes growing in my garden and now I don't know what to do with them all. Aside from adding to salads, or making veggie cream cheese, any suggestions?
Jane Black: Butter-braised, my friend. You will never want radishes any other way.
corn silks: agh, please tell me there's a fail-safe trick to shucking corn on the cob without leaving strands of gag-inducing corn silk behind? p.s., i made the corn and asiago risotto last weekend. It was great except for the aforementioned problem.
Jane Black: We have just the tip for you, courtesy of Thomas Keller who visited us a few weeks ago. (For a full and terrific account of our cooking lesson, check out Bonnie's blog post.)Here's what you do. After cutting the kernels from an ear of corn, put them in a large bowl. Set a medium bowl of water next to the large bowl Swish your hand through the corn in a circular motion. Any remaining corn silk will stick to your hand. Rinse your hand in the other bowl as you remove the silks.
Crabcakes: I know this is a Tom question, but he couldn't have a chat today. Didn't the magazine recently list restaurants with good crabcakes? Could I get a link to that list?
Andrea Caumont: Here you go!
Questions about canning: I've posted several questions about canning in recent weeks, with no response on the chat...I assume because your staff can't answer them. Can you refer me to a resource when I can ask questions? Might you consider inviting some canning experts to join chats in the months when we're doing a lot of canning?Thank you.
Joe Yonan: We know some things and have access to the canning experts who know more than we do. But we get overwhelmed with questions some weeks and just can't get to all of them. So fire away again, and we'll see what we can help with. And that's a good idea to have a real expert in here soon to help the putting-uppers put things up!
Smoker: Great article today on the smokers and I look forward to seeing some more of these in the future. I was wondering if you have any advice on how to manage the smoke coming out of the smoker. I've got a neighbor who isn't too fond of the smoke wafting over into their yard and I was curious if there are any tried and true ways to either re-direct the amount of smoke or minimize the amount wafting over into their yard.
Jim Shahin: Great question! When we moved into our Capitol Hill rowhouse, I encountered the very same problem. The first outing at our new digs, I was all excited. Thought the neighbors would love the smell, as, in my experience, folks tend, if anything, to be envious when they smell the smoke. Alas, the neighbor came out on her deck and asked that I not smoke through the night, as it came into her windows and kept her up at night. My heart fell. There are two things you can do. One, smoke when you know your neighbor isn't around, then warm your food through at dinnertime. Or buy a better smoker. Cheap ones leak a lot, and there just isn't much you can do about it. Better ones hold the smoke a lot better.
Ode to Stephanie: No question; I just wanted to issue my thanks to the Food staff in general and Stephanie Witt Sedgwick in particular for producing the nation's best food section.Aside from being an eager eater, I hunt down recipes for my CSA newsletter. I consistently find what I need in the Post (giving full credit, of course) because of your great recipe library, Stephanie's tasty and nutritious use of seasonal produce, and much-appreciated recipe search feature.I only wish that Nourish had a separate link on the Food page, the way Cooking for One and other features do.I look forward to Wednesdays because of you; thanks again!
Bonnie Benwick: Even if you're related to her, she still deserves praise, Ode! We will pass it along. One way to quickly access Stephanie's recipes is to type "Nourish" in the search field on Recipe Finder. Joe's Cooking for One recipes can be accessed that way as well. And one day, we'll have a more user-friendly Food homepage. Really. That's what they tell me.
Grumpy poster's tip worked: A few weeks ago someone posted a hard boiled egg peeling tip: Peel when still hot. This person was quite grumpy. Regardless, I thought I would try the tip when I had two dozen eggs to peel and devil. It worked. I was expecting trouble because the eggs were too fresh. But no pock marks, just like grumpy person said. It was also handy to skip the soak in cold water step.
Jane Black: Glad it worked.
Cocktail Party Help!: I am hosting a cocktail party next month for approximately 25-30 co-workers - HELP! I have two big questions -1. I will just be serving beer and wine. For that many guests, how many bottles of red wine, white wine and beer should I buy? 2. I am a fairly good cook - and I often host multi-course dinner parties. However, I have never hosted a cocktail party. I am hoping to not have to do too much plating/cooking during the party. Any suggestions as to what to make? Also, how many different things should I serve?Your help is much appreciated!
Jane Black: On the amount of booze, you need to decide how long people are staying before you can figure out how much people will drink. But to start, know that there are about 5 glasses of wine in each bottle. So if you were only serving wine and it was a 2 to 3 hour cocktail party, I think you could assume that 25 people would have 3 glasses. That's 15 bottles of wine. So if you get beer too, I'd say you'd be safe with a case.As for food, I never expect hosts to be cooking or plating during a cocktail party. It's either hors d'oeurves, which you prep in advance, or a buffet of room-temperature or cold items at this time of year.Where to start? It's hard to advise without knowing how upscale you want it to be or what kind of cuisines you prefer. But bruschetta is always a crowdpleaser and easy to do in advance. Here's a link to a few recipes for canapes, including curried shrimp and cucumber canapes and, my favorite, Odessa Piper's gougeres with herb salad.
Almond paste: I recently purchased a Groupon for a company called Nutty Guys, which I plan to use to buy almond flour. What is the difference between almond flower and almond paste? How much almond flour should I buy- does it go bad? Baking wise, is there a difference between blanched or unblanched flour? Thanks!
Bonnie Benwick: Bakewise, it's a matter of aesthetics and maybe a slight texture.Almond paste is a mixture of blanched ground almonds, sugar and a glycerin-type liquid or other liquid that acts as a binder. (Marzipan -- I see the question hovering -- is almond paste, sugar, sometimes unbeaten egg whites, often food coloring.) If that Nutty Guys price I'm seeing online is for correct ($4.33 for 8 ounces), you've got a deal there already.
Best sides for BBQ?: Because of the intense flavors of BBQ, hickory, mesquite, etc. I love nothing better than simple garden fresh sliced tomatoes and ice cold watermelon.
Jane Black: Yes. And a little potato salad.
Joe Yonan: And cole slaw.
Buffalo: I bought a buffalo steak on sale at Whole Foods and I'm at a loss for an easy way to prepare it. Any ideas? Grilling or stovetop is fine. Thanks!
Jane Black: Here's a great recipe for Buffalo Steak with Cocoa Nib Sauce. But it's a bit heavy for summer. So you might just marinate the meat in mustard, shallots and olive oil and cook it. Or if you want something a little more chic, check out this recipe we ran for Buffalo Tartar from Peter Smith at PS 7.
Thanks!: I liked the All We Can Eat chat leftovers section. As a vegetarian who cooks meat for my husband-and also for just about every other person who eats in our home-I liked the suggestion of the gazpacho with/without shrimp. I frequently try to make meals where I can just add the meat without having to make everything separate.
Cilantro-Lime Black Bean Salad: Last week you posted a recipe for Cilantro-Lime Black Bean Salad, which I made it over the weekend (very yummy salad, BTW). I just wanted to say that I only used 2 TB of olive oil as opposed to 3, and I ended up putting in an extra TB of lime juice since I didn't have any zest on hand. But I wanted to point out that I don't think that 3 TB of oil is really warranted -- I think the only difference is that my salad was a little bit more "juicy" because of the extra TB of lime juice -- thoughts? Saves 40 calories a serving, total fat and saturated fat. Why 3 TB of oil? Also, would a balsamic dressing work instead of oil and lime juice? Thanks!
Bonnie Benwick: Making a Nourish recipe healthier -- quite the feat. "Hey if you liked less oil go ahead. Oil gives good mouth feel, a true feeling of fullness and it carries flavors. How much of that you need is up to you. Balsamic and black beans? Sure, but I'd skip the cilantro and lime and use basil and parsley instead."
Grilling: I'm afraid of my grill. We have a gas grill, so I really feel there's no excuse for this. Usually my husband grills, but I'd like to do it sometimes when he's not around. How do I get over this?
Jim Shahin:
Southern potluck : Where my father comes from (south Alabama), it's called "Dinner on the Ground". I remember the plank tables outside filled with food. Then, it was all home made. When his cousins left all their money to the church, the church built a hall with a protessional kitchen and running water bathrooms.The church potluck tradition remains in Southern Maryland.
Bonnie Benwick: I like that.
For Cocktail Party: Mark Bittman has a great list of no-cook or little-cook canapes for cocktail parties. Most are not recipes, just ideas - but great springboards.
Jane Black: Yes, those lists are super fun and inspiring.
Blueberry overload (and cooking for one): Help, please. I have a two-pound container of blueberries that'll spoil any day now. So much for impulse purchases at Trader Joe's. Anyway, I live alone, and I can't imagine making enough muffins to use up this much fruit. Do you have any ideas? A nice compote recipe perhaps? Thanks!
Bonnie Benwick: you have an ice cream maker, I highly recommend this Blueberry Basil.Next time, freeze those berries you've just brought home, and use them as you go.
Barbeque Question: Thank you for the article on barbeque. I recently smoked a 7# pork butt for 9 hrs on my Weber kettle grill and was quite pleased. The temp was hard to control though; I averaged about 300 degrees rather than 225-250.My question concerns smokers that have water pans. I have heard that its purpose is to keep the meat moist. If that's the reason I wonder if that impedes the formation of crispy "bark". Comment?I also wonder if a benefit of the water pan is that it can act as an insulator, helping to regulate the temp. Any idea? thanks
Jim Shahin: Water pans are extremely popular at cook-off competitions. They do help keep the meat moist and, yes, they do help with regulating the temperature. As far as the bark, oftentimes you will get a lovely crispiness on the outside due to the simple length of time the meat is being smoked. The amount of moisture generally does not keep a good bark from forming. However, you can always use the water pan for part of your smoking (say, two-thirds), then remove it for the remainder.
non-alchohol dessert: My summer go-to dish for when guests come is trifle. I love the fruit and cream and I make it boozy the night before plus I don't have to touch the oven, I just buy a pound cake. My friend who is a recovering alcholic is coming to visit and shouldn't even taste alchohol. So there goes my favorite trifle. Are there other desserts than can be put together (without using the oven) that might involve fruit and cream (rather than just berries topped ice cream). I'm open to new avenues of dessert.
Jane Black: The answer is fool. It's a British favorite (but don't hold that against it) that is basically just that: fruit and cream. Here's one recipe we have for Raspberry and White Chocolate Fool.
vege topics: i am a recent convert to vegetanianism. I miss using my grill as much as I used to though. Can you please add some vege main dishes to your column?
Jim Shahin: Will definitely add some vegetarian main dishes at some point. Smoking ain't just for carnivores anymore.
Joe Yonan: Also, it strikes me that the grilled eggplant timbales with smoked tomato sauce that David served as a salad could pretty easily be a main course if you had other veggie apps and sides.
frozen shrimp: Bonnie had mentioned keeping a frozen bag of shrimp on hand. Can you treat frozen shrimp the same as fresh?
Jane Black:
detroit, mi: hello there! i have some lovely lamb chops marinating in the fridge which i want to grill up this evening for dinner. i would love to grill them up when i get home from work, but my husband doesn't come home (and we don't eat) until at least 2 hours later. is there a way to keep them warm and tasty without drying out, or do i just need to grill right before we eat?what is the general rule about keeping grilled foods warm? when i have guests, i'd like to have my kababs/satay/chicken breasts/steaks cooked beforehand so i don't have to slave over a hot grill all night. any pointers on how to do this?
Bonnie Benwick: That's a little tricky. Lovely lamb chops need TLC to stay moist. You could get them to barely medium-rare and then reheat in a grill pan when your husband comes home. I'm not sure I know of a way to keep grilled lamb warm for 2 hours without adversely affecting the loveliness.
Trifle: Minor yet longtime conundrum: Is "trifle" pronounced like it rhymes with "rifle" or "whiffle?"
Joe Yonan: Rifle!
Corn and Potatoes: In one of his chats last year, Gene Weingarten praised the virtues of grilling corn still in the husk, and I've become a convert. I love it seasoned with Old Bay.Also, what is the proper procedure for grilling kabobs with potato chunks? I tried boiling the chunks for a few minutes to give them a head start, but many of them split apart when I put them on the skewers. They still turned out well when brushed with olive oil and Italian seasoning before grilling - any other recommendations?
Jane Black: I think you should play with the size of the potatoes. You could slice them pretty thin and then grill them. Or you could cut them into thicker cubes, pre-boil and then grill. If they are larger pieces, they won't split apart on the skewer.
David Hagedorn: pan. Coat the seasoned cubes with some oil, like canola, and spray the pan with cooking spray. Then, brown them as you would in a saute pan. Dress them with a little extra-virgin afterwards.
baklava cookie: Do you have a recipe for a baklava cookie, sort of a lazy girl's way of making baklava that is also a bit easier to handle.
Joe Yonan: Nope. I see some on the Interwebs, though.
Summer Pastas: Good Morning! My boyfriend and I want to prepare an Italian themed dinner for 10 of us while at the beach. We were thinking a pasta with prosciutto and some fresh veggies - perhaps peas and asparagus? What else would you recommend? Thoughts on other courses - perhaps a caprese with a reduced balsalmic glaze? Thoughts on other courses and dessert? We also have an ice cream maker to make homemade ice cream to pair with whatever dessert we decide on. Would love your thoughts and suggestions! Oh and of course, a cocktail to compliment as well. Thanks!
Jane Black: But how about a more elegant, inventive salad from our own David Hagedorn? He developed this fabulous Bibb Salad with Tomato Crush (a kind of pureed summer tomato pesto) and gorgonzola.Then you could add a meat course -- this lovely Arista, or Tuscan pork loin would be great.As for ice cream, he may live in Paris but I recommend David Leibovitz's recipes. See Joe's article about him and the recipes, which are terrific.
Silver Spring, MD: Love the new barbecue column but as an apartment dweller I feel so left out. Can I use a cast iron grill pan to make the pork chops in today's food section and/or other grilled foods or would a George Foreman grill be another good idea? Someone recommended the Lodge pre-seasoned reversible stove top grill that covers two burners.
Joe Yonan: As a fellow apartment dweller, I say that you can certainly use a cast-iron grill pan. I love mine. I also like the broiler as a grilling substitute. And absolutely, that two-burner grill thing is great; don't have one but have used them. I'd step away from the GF grill, I'm afraid -- unless you're making panini. IMHO, you don't want to be pressing those chops or any other "grilled" meat, if you want it to stay juicy.
Cabbage: Ignoring the 'don't eat anything bigger than your head' adage I received a cabbage much bigger than my head last week. I used about 1/3 of it for the "taco slaw" - which is awesome, made some stuffed cabbage, but am not sure what to do with the half that is left. It's about the size of a regular large head of cabbage. I'd make more taco slaw, but I'm still eating my way through the first batch and am not sure I'd finish them both in time.
Bonnie Benwick: I believe in that rule, but we have to make an exception for cabbage. And chocolate eclairs.How about today's Dinner in Minutes? Or Cabbage Latkes? Or Kimchi Hot Pot? Or just kimchi?
no bake summer dessert: I like to mix lemon curd with mascarpone and spoon into a graham cracker crust, either full size or individual size shells then top with blueberries or raspberries. You can make your own lemon curd or buy it ready made.
Jane Black: Yum. Can you bring some of those over?
Freezing Blueberries: For the poster with the overload of blueberries - I recently brought home 30 lbs of pick-your-own. To freeze them for future blueberry pies (my recipe is similar to one given out on the chat a few weeks ago - baking down something before putting it in the pie seems crucial) I laid them out on paper towels until the skins were totally dry, then put in a plastic bag and froze them. No berries stick together this way.
Jane Black: You can also put them on a cookie sheet in the freezer and let them freeze individually. Then put them in bags. Either way, good to store up for the winter.
Lobster: Does anyone know a humane way to kill a lobster before cooking it? Boiling it to death seems rather cruel and steaming even worse.
Joe Yonan: Sure. Use the method that Trevor Corson describes here.
Grilled Eggplant Timbales: Hi Rangers! So, I know the whole point of David's article today is not using an oven and thus keeping the kitchen cool. But I read the recipe for the eggplant timbales and smoked tomato sauce, and I had to have it: tonight. I have all the ingredients at home - and they're all beautiful (very lucky weekend at Eastern Market). But, no grill.How would you suggest I adapt the recipe? I have smoked paprika at home, so I was thinking of adding a touch to the tomato to get the smoky flavor. How would you suggest cooking the tomatoes? Broiler? Same for the eggplant? Thanks so much! Can't wait to try it. :)
David Hagedorn: OK, here's the deal. You can adapt the recipe, but the smoked tomato sauce is killer; it would have won the tomato contest if the Post allowed ringers to enter.Roast the tomatoes skin-on in a 450 oven for 15-20 minutes, or until nicely deep brown. (Use a small pan, like a cake pan.) Season well with s/p. Crush the tomatoes, then puree them with a little tomato paste. OR halve and seed the tomatoes before roasting, let them cool, remove the skins, and crush the tomatoes, using them as is and seasoning them with s/p and some extra virgin. This is more like a confit than a sauce.For the eggplant, cut them in half lengthwise (peeled or not, depending on your personal taste), season with s/p, drizzle with some oil and roast at 450 on a parchment lined sheet pan until fork-soft but still slightly firm. Cool, cubes and finish according to the recipe.Not quite the same dish, but it should work. Unless you faint from the heat in your kitchen before dinner, of course.
Single girl griller: I have my Weber for the weekend and a gas grill for quick dinners during the week. I grill almost everything all year round. I am thinking about trying a pizza - can I do it on my gas grill or do I wait for the weekend to get the charcoal going?
Jim Shahin:
Joe Yonan: You also might read up on this grilled-pizza primer by Tony Rosenfeld we had a couple summers ago.
Grass-fed beef: I was talking to some farmers about their grass-fed beef, and they told me that the meat is very lean and has little marbling. Growing up, my dad preached to me about how more marbling means juicier and more tender steak, so my reaction was to think that maybe the grass-fed steaks would be tough. Do I need to be re-educated?
Jane Black: Nope. You don't. Marbling ( a nice way of saying fat) is what helps to make meat taste good. That is one reason (but not nearly half the story) of why we feed our cattle corn.It is true that grass-fed beef is leaner. But well-raised grass-fed beef can be juicy and delicious. It also can have a richer flavor. In my experience, I've had great prime cuts of grass-fed beef but I've struggled with some of my other favorite cuts -- like hangar -- with grass-fed beef from certain farms. It can be tough.
ESP?: Thanks for the timely bbq/smoker article. It's like you guys can read my mind. I'm buying the boyfriend a smoker for his upcoming birthday and the recommendations/recipes are just what I need! ps. Bonnie, David Lebovitz posted your Thomas Keller story on Facebook yesterday. Lots of good response to your story!
Bonnie Benwick: I'm not a Facebooker but I follow David's tweets. I'm almost over that episode....zested limes this morning during recipe testing and it was all so lovely and green.
canning: For the person asking about canning, Kim O'Donnell (formerly a food writer for WaPo) does a chat on Thursdays at culinate.com and she and some of those chatters regularly talk about canning. It's a good place to ask questions. Also, Kim's newsletter mentions that "Canning Across America" is about to roll out their 2nd annual Can-a-Rama.
Joe Yonan: True, true. Kim's a good canner. I've talked about starting up a DC chapter of CAA (which I prefer to call "Cans Across America" for the obvious pun), but haven't followed through on my promise yet. We've also thrown around the idea of doing a canning party/swap as a story. Do you like that idea?
re: cocktail party: A case of beer for 25 - 30 people? There are only 24 beers in a case. That would work if you only want people to stay for an hour. When I have a cocktail party with beer and wine - I buy at least 3 cases of beer and what I don't use for the party is certainly used up during the football season.
Jane Black: Read carefully. I said a case of wine. Plus beers.
re: recent vegetarian convert: If you like tofu, it is amazing on the grill! I have been a vegetarian for almost 15 years and only just discovered grilled tofu. Make (or buy) your favorite marinade or sauce, coat the tofu, and grill for a few minutes per side. Also veggie kebabs-with or without the tofu-would be a good way to still use the grill. And you could grill some veggies, and add them to something, like my recent favorite from epicurious.com which is an orzo salad with pesto vinaigrette plus the grilled summer veggies. I make it without the shrimp for me, and add a toasted pine nuts. So yummy!
Jane Black: I'm also a big fan of haloumi cheese. If you haven't had it, it's meaty and a bit salty. But it's great on the grill. I think they stock it at Whole Foods but you can definitely find it at Middle Eastern markets in Maryland and Virginia.
fool question: I have a question about the fool recipe you linked to. It states 'Heat the white chocolate in a large, heatproof container set over, but not touching, a saucepan of barely bubbling water over medium to ...' How do I achieve that? Hold teh container over the saucepan? I understand not having the container touch the boiling water but not having it not touch the saucepan.
Bonnie Benwick: Oh dear. What we mean is that the container -- usually a heatproof glass bowl or a stainless steel one -- is large enough so that its rim sits on opening of the saucepan, and there should be just enough water in the pan so that it doesn't touch the bottom of said bowl.
Re Non-Alcohol Dessert: For the chatter who asked about non-alcoholic desserts using fruit and cream, how about this No-Bake Strawberry Icebox Cake?
Jane Black: Thanks!
Joe Yonan: Or our own Raspberry Whipped Cream Icebox Cake!
grill pans: i've heard horrible things about the smoke they generate, which tends to set off smoke detectors. This might be especially problematic for apartment dwellers. That's why I've not bought one. Am I too much of a 'fraidy cat?
Joe Yonan: Yep, you are. The smoke's not that big of a deal in a grill pan, in my experience. And I don't even have a vent hood.
Cherries!: After we've eaten all the cherries we can take, any suggestions on yummy things to do with the leftovers? Thanks! (P.S. Grilled our first pizza this week--turned out great and done without heating my kitchen. Bonus.)
Jane Black: Pit them. Freeze them. You will love them later in the winter. Or make a crumble. Or a pie. Or a sauce for ice cream or duck. Lots of options.
Remote thermometer?: I just downloaded the recipe for Grilled Cumin Pork Chops. It states: "It's best to use a remote thermometer (with a probe)." What exactly is a remote thermometer with a probe? Maybe you can recommend a specific one? Thanks!
David Hagedorn: digital ON/OFF timer that can sit next to the oven or grill. You set the timer by time and internal temperature. This way, you can see the temperature without having to open the oven or grill.OK, just a second. I'll be right back.Mine is a Taylor. It isn't fancy and it works just fine. Using a remote thermometer will totally change the way you cook. No more guesswork.
alcohol free trifle: My English husband deligated trifle making to me. I made kid friendly trifle with np alcohol--pound cake sliced and formed into a well in the bottom of the bowl, wll filled with soft fruit, then soaked in strawwberry gelatin. After the gelatin sets, make custard for the next layer. Let that set. Top with real whipped cream. I've taken it to potluck suppers at church and brought only the empty bowl home.
Jane Black: Nice.
Gas Grills: Please make sure your conenctions are tight, the hose have no leaks and the tank is in good shape. I am a middle unit in a group of 5 townhouses and my neighbors gas grill had its propane tank explode. Not a large noise more of a hiss and then fire. It was a good thing it was a calm hot humid July night any breeze and all five units would have gone since it took Fairfax County Fire and Rescue over 10 minutes to respond and I live within 5 minutes of three fire stations: Centreville, Clifton on the Station 40 on Rt 29. My hose put out the fire. The I ripped the battalion chief a new one!
Bonnie Benwick: Scary post o' the day.
gas grills: why not even a mention of gas grills? that bad, huh? i pulled my gas grill out of the shed earlier this summer and part of it crumbled. it was nasty anyway. i'd like to get something new, but don't know what. i like the idea of a smoker but it also scares me to think of smoking something overnight.
Joe Yonan: Gas grills are good for outdoor cooking and grilling, but barbecue -- low, slow and smoky -- it ain't. Not even with wood chips.
whole eggs vs egg whites: I recently came across two recipes (a zucchini bread and a blueberry-peach upside down cake) that called for two egg whites. Can I use whole eggs instead? I think they were going for lower fat but I like the lutein that is in the egg yolks.
Bonnie Benwick: Because you like the lutein.
Joe Yonan: I was just craving lutein the other day. ;-)
Charcoal grills: I prefer charcoal, and I need to get a new grill because the old one (20 years old) is rusting away. I want to avoid flimsy ones, but other than that, are there any special features I should look for?
Jim Shahin:
Cherries Suggestion: but actually dried the pan of leather in the back of my car window during a hot day. So tasty, fairly easy. Cut into strips and roll around parchment paper for a homemade fruit roll-up.
Joe Yonan: Fun! The last few times I've made jam, btw, I've loved scraping the congealed part off the sides of the pan afterward and thinking that this MUST be where fruit leather originated...
Grill Pan in Apartments: I have one and I do need to open the windows (I have one right above my stove, which helps to pull the smoke out of the room) and take down the smoke detector each time I use it. It's unfortunate, but worth the hassle.
Joe Yonan: Maybe I'm just immune to the smoke. Absolutely worth it.
beef and cabbage stir fry : Any suggestions for another vegetable I could use instead of cabbage? Something more summery?
Bonnie Benwick: Oh, cabbage can be summery, can't it? See the bazillion slaw recipes we ran recently? The cabbage cooks fairly quickly in this dish.
RE: Cocktail Party: "Read carefully. I said a case of wine. Plus beers."Perhaps writing more carefully would also be in order.You Wrote: "But to start, know that there are about 5 glasses of wine in each bottle. So if you were only serving wine and it was a 2 to 3 hour cocktail party, I think you could assume that 25 people would have 3 glasses. That's 15 bottles of wine. So if you get beer too, I'd say you'd be safe with a case."The word case appears in the same sentence as the word "beer," so it would be easy for someone to think that you were recommending just a case of beer, especially since the previous sentence, you already said 15 bottles of wine would be needed.Please don't get snippy just because you weren't clear with your statement.
Joe Yonan: Snap!
Ann Arbor, Michigan: Submitting early; I'll be in meetings! I have to make a vegetable side dish to bring to a dinner tonight. Main dish provided is tandori chicken, so I'd like something 1. easy and 2. slightly Indian-spiced or Indian spiced-friendly. Oh, and no tomatoes. Any help? Thanks!
Bonnie Benwick: Couscous With Chickpeas and Carrots. Easy peasy. Or Cumin-Scented Chickpeas and Spinach With Basmati Rice.
fool again: Thanks for the answer on the fool question about the melting container not touching the water. I could not understand why the recipe would call for the two containers not to touch. Would you please have the recipe corrected so it says that (and not that the container should not touch the saucepan)? Thanks!
Bonnie Benwick: Done.
white chocolate: Hubby and I are debating whether white chocolate is really chocolate. He says if there is no cocoa in it, then it can't be real chocolate. What says you?
Jane Black: I think it depends who you ask. It has cocoa butter in it, which is from the cacao bean but no cacao. The world is split on whether that counts.
Joe Yonan: I'm sort of with your husband on this one, although that doesn't mean it's bad. I don't tend to like it as much as "real" chocolate, but I have to say that once David Lebovitz showed me how to caramelize it in the oven, I've liked it a lot better.
trifle alternatives: What's the difference between fool and syllabub?
Bonnie Benwick: The chief one is that a syllabub has an alcoholic component of wine or ale.
CAA/Canning Party: Yes! We like that idea! (As a never-canned-before-but-really-want-to-just-need-to-do-it reader).
21771: Another second for the Weber Smokey Mountain Bullet smoker. Easy to use, the results are fantastic and it's affordable. I can make ribs, brisket and pulled pork as good as any restaurant now!
Grilled Pie?: Grilling a pie sounds awfully challenging. Although I must admit it looks delicious. Are there certain types of pies that are easier than others when doing them on the grill?
David Hagedorn: It's not as challenging as it seems, now that I've already gotten the failures out of the way for you. I found the 350 temperature to be fine, probably because the space is more confined and the heat, therefore, less dispersed.I'd stick to fruit pies on the grill, since they can take a bit of a beating. The major thing is to cover the crust, especially on the sides close to the briquettes.Give it a shot. I think you'll like the flavor.
Gas grills: "Gas grills are good for outdoor cooking and grilling, but barbecue -- low, slow and smoky -- it ain't. Not even with wood chips."A little biased aren't we? Have you ever cooked on a GOOD gas grill? I have a Weber Summit 6CL, and it is the best smoker I've ever had, and I'd put it up against the big boys any day. The grill has great temperature control, and I can much more easily keep the surface at 245 than any charcoal/wood-burner on the planet.Cheap gas grills are not great, but don't hate on gas just because you haven't cooked on a high quality one yet.
Joe Yonan: I'd have to see it to believe it, in terms of the ability to actually produce consistent smoke. Temp regulation is great, but every gas grill I've seen/used lets any smoke generated from chips flow right out the back and doesn't contain it. Maybe yours is different?
Yes to canning!: I would love another canning story!
Joe Yonan: Well, you've covered us and maintained the temperature inside the grill between 325 and 350 degrees, then cooked us until the thermometer hits 155, so you know what that means -- we're done!Thanks for the great q's today, as usual, and thanks so much to Jim Shahin and David Hagedorn for helping us give you some a's. Now for the giveaway books: "Eating Well on a Budget" goes to the chatter who asked about making a trifle without booze. "BBQ Makes Everything Better" goes to the chatter first asked about how to control the smoke in order to appease cranky neighbors. Send your mailing info to firstname.lastname@example.com, and we'll get you your books.You BBQ fanatics, make sure to read Jim's weekly blog posts on the subject, at All We Can Eat. And until next time, happy smoking, eating and reading.

DAILYKENN.com -- A leaked police report reveals that over 30 percent of prisoners in Germany are foreigners.
The number of foreigners in Poland, by comparison, is 0.3%.
From breitbart.com:
More than 30 per cent of prisoners in Germany are "foreign", a much higher proportion than other European countries, the Council of Europe has found.
In one state, foreigners made up an astonishing 96 per cent of incarcerated peoples.
Of the 65,710 prisoners in Germany this year, 19,592 were "foreigners", the so-called 'Space study' presented this Tuesday in Brussels revealed. The European average is 8 per cent less, sitting at 22 per cent.
By foreigners, the authors of the study meant anyone in possession of non-German or duel citizenship. If "foreigner" was taken to include people with a migrant background, then the figure would likely be even higher.
In Poland, which is currently governed by an anti-mass migration right wing government, the percentage of foreigners populating jails is just 0.3.
In Monaco, meanwhile, which has a foreign population of about 78 per cent, 96.4 per cent of the prison population was foreign.

Title: Afterglow
Author: Maria Monroe
Genre: Post Apocalyptic Romance
Release Date: July 13th, 2016
Who knew the apocalypse could be so sexy?
Nina can shoot a gun, start a fire, and kick some serious ass. So when a killer virus and solar storm decimate the country, she's as prepared as possible to survive. She just needs a motorcycle to navigate the cluttered roads and meet up with her family.
Creed, former Marine, is tattooed and tough. He's scarred inside and out. Loss is no stranger to him, and he avoids getting close to anyone at all costs.
When Nina tries to steal his motorcycle they have a vicious fight, but necessity and attraction force them into an uneasy alliance. They travel together through the dangerous landscape, where trouble lurks around every corner and they need each other to survive.
But the biggest danger just might be falling in love.
Equally as exciting as it is sexy, Afterglow contains graphic sex and some violence, so please read at your own risk. 18+ recommended.
Innocent freshman + bad-boy college senior = the sexiest "lessons" ever. College has never been this hot!
Lia, eighteen and innocent, is sure moving into a coed dorm at college was a mistake. She's having a hard time fitting in, and she's absolutely and completely miserable. But then she meets college senior Julian, and things are about to take a scintillating turn. He's the older, confident bad-boy, and Lia can't stop thinking about him. When he agrees to give her private "lessons," Lia starts to learn way more outside of class than she does in class. What she's not prepared for, though, is falling in love. Hard.
Love (Literally)
LOVE (LITERALLY) is the conclusion to JULIAN & LIA, the sexy college romance.
Lia has finally gotten over her first and only love, Julian, and is starting a glamorous reporting job in downtown Chicago. But when circumstances force her and Julian together again, she quickly realizes her heart never truly healed. The scruffy sexy bad-boy she fell in love with is now a clean-cut and commanding professional, but still as arrogant and domineering as ever. Getting swept up in a dangerous story isn't enough to take her mind off his green eyes, sculpted body, or dirty mouth.
Intrigue and peril mix with sex and second chances in this stunning conclusion to the Julian Series.
18+ only!
Maria Monroe writes sexy and smart romance. But she also enjoys playing Pokemon, drinking wine, sarcasm, and laughing about inappropriate things.
She's from Chicago and currently lives just outside the city with her three awesome kids, two rescue dogs, two rescue cats, and the most supportive husband in the world.
