- Yield
- Makes about 60
- 12 ounces purple- or orange-fleshed sweet potatoes (about 2 medium)
- 7 ounces sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup nonfat instant dry milk
- 1/2 teaspoon finely grated lime zest

It was a star-studded day at the White House Tuesday as President Barack Obama made the final Congressional Medal of Freedom presentations of his term.
One of the most touching moments of the day came when the president gave a speech to medal recipient Ellen DeGeneres, who received the award for her pioneering spirit for LGBT rights.
"It's easy to forget now, when we've come so far where now marriage is equal under the law, just how much courage was required for Ellen to come out on the most public of stages almost 20 years ago," Obama said after presenting the medal to her. "Just how important it was, not just for the LGBT community, but for all of us, to see somebody so full of kindness and light, somebody we liked so much, someone who could be our neighbor or our colleague or our sister challenge our own assumptions. Remind us that we have more in common than we realize. Push us in the direction of justice. What an incredible burden that was to bear. To risk your career like that — people don't do that very often."
He continued, "And she did pay a price. We don't remember this. She did, for a pretty long stretch of time. Even in Hollywood. And yet, today, every day, Ellen counters what too often divides us with the countless things that bind us together. She inspires us to be better, one joke, one dance at a time."
Obama admitted to being choked up, and DeGeneres was visibly teary-eyed as the medal was being placed around her neck.
The moment was emotional for those who look up to DeGeneres too. Ellen Page, who came out in 2014 and appeared on DeGeneres' show that year to thank her for paving the way for gay stars, tweeted her support soon after the ceremony.
"Thank you @TheEllenShow for everything you have done," she wrote on Twitter, along with a rainbow and two heart emojis.
Thank you @TheEllenShow for everything you have done. ❤🌈❤ https://t.co/o0mAwVwfX4
— Ellen Page (@EllenPage) November 23, 2016
Other recipients included Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Elouise Cobell (posthumous), Robert De Niro, Richard Garwin, Bill and Melinda Gates, Frank Gehry, Margaret H. Hamilton, Tom Hanks, Grace Hopper (posthumous), Michael Jordan, Maya Lin, Lorne Michaels, Newt Minow, Eduardo Padrón, Robert Redford, Diana Ross, Vin Scully, Bruce Springsteen and Cicely Tyson.

Table Talk Dinner & Discussion: March 11, 2015
Wednesday, March 11, 2015 @ 5:45 p.m. It's NEVER too late to join! Childcare will be provided in room W-8, right across the hall from the Teacher's Lounge. Dinner provided. We are really excited about our first full meeting together this Wednesday! We will share a meal inspired by the first chapter of the book 7: an experimental mutiny against excess. The premise of the book is to focus on 7 different areas of life, shed the excess in those areas and simplify our lives. The 7 areas are food, clothes, spending, waste, possessions, media, and stress. For the first week we will take a look at FOOD and how it affects our mental, physical, and spiritual selves. Together, we will … Read More

Merry Christmas! Family Christmas was highly anticipated this year and did not disappoint!
There were hats, hats and hats. Last year one of my aunts wore a crazy hat to church and we gave her a hard time about it. It was decided that hats should be worn this year, by everyone so my aunt being the hat collector she is, brought 10 or so along for us.
Then surprise of all surprises, SANTA CAME!
And of course, there were fireworks. You know…just a short 20 minute show…typical family Christmas…the best part is maybe my aunt saying, "we have to get those ones for next time." (We'll also have to work on getting a bald eagle for next time and patriotic music.)

In my last post I talked about the BBC3 attempt to 'trick' young people into getting into politics. In this post, I want to to clarify what I meant there. In brief, I was talking about the nature of spin, as opposed to genuine politics and even rhetoric.
It is often easy to talk about politicians as rhetoricians as opposed to logicians, sophists as opposed to philosophers, that is, people who are only interested in persuading you to agree with them (for their own goals) rather than engaging with you in order to bring virtue in the world (the common goal). Both the genuine politician and the rhetorician treats the public as a body of people who have an opinion that they have chosen for themselves. Even the rhetorician is concerned with making you think in a certain way, such that you agree with him. However, the contemporary discipline of PR and Spin works on the presumption that you will not think at all. To make this point, I want to rely on the brief interchange between the three party leaders in the third Prime Ministerial Debate. A full argument and analysis of the interchange to back my claims up would take up far too much space for a blog. Though, not to use this as an excuse for sloppy argument, I've provided the analysis here.
The Libdem immigration policy was brought into discussion when Cameron presented it as simply an amnesty (Third Debate, p. 14). Clegg responded with a partial clarification, saying it was not blanket amnesty and that it addresses the 'real' problem of illegal immigrants "living in the shadows of our economy" (Third Debate, p. 15). Cameron carries on as if Clegg had simply said that 'we do not have an amnesty', Brown joins in saying that he agrees with Cameron. Clegg then presents the policy in the form of an argument proper which can be reconstructed as follows:
Premise 1, There are illegal immigrants who, rather than be caught by the authorities, work for criminals in exchange for safety. This is a problem that we've inherited.
Premise 2, We cannot deport them because they are so well hidden that the authorities cannot find them.
Premise 3, It would be better that they were integrated into society contributing to that society.
Conclusion, Therefore, we should offer an amnesty to those who have been here for a decade, provided they speak English and obey rules so they can integrate (in accord with P3) and pay a penalty (community service) for their crime.
Cameron and Brown do not once in the interchange mention the social problem given in P1, that is they do not once mention the thing that a) Clegg raises as a serious social problem, b) is both the reason for, and a main justification of the Libdem policy. They do not give any reason for the argument being invalid. They do not address the argument at all, but merely the policy as if it had not been defended. When Cameron immediately stated "I think it is profoundly misguided" (Third Debate, p. 15) , the 'it' is not the argument but the policy. When Brown claimed "Nick won't answer the question about how he can justify an amnesty for illegal immigrants" (Third Debate, p. 16), it is an outright lie because he has answered the question several times by this point. In fact, we know that Brown knows quite well that Clegg has a reason for his policy, because in the second debate Brown very briefly interacted with Clegg's argument saying "We're removing them" as an alternative to deportation, to which Clegg replied "No, you can't deport 900,000 people. You don't know where they live." (Second Debate, p. 25).
So, both Cameron and Brown, rather than interacting through argument with Clegg's argument, simply acted as if the argument hadn't happened by continuing to ask Clegg to justify himself and addressing their comments solely to the policy itself rather than its defence. By acting in this way they hoped that the viewer would not notice that Clegg's argument had happened, even though they had just witnessed it because if the viewer did not acknowledge the argument, then they were free to discredit the argument in whatever way they wanted. More specifically, they hoped that the viewers would not make the judgement that linked Clegg's argument to Brown and Cameron's ignoring of that argument and discrediting of the policy in such a way that it showed the latter two's claims in their lack of substance.
They tried to maintain the viewer in a sort of limbo of thoughtlessness, in which the viewer has all the information they need in order to cognise that there was a direct contradiction between what they implied had happened (by acting as if no argument had been uttered) and what had actually happened (an argument being uttered), but do not actually make the judgment that brings the information together and shows the contradiction. A limbo in which the agent does not think. In order to recognise a contradiction we need to think about the information we have; it is thought that brings our notions and experiences together in a way that lets us see what fits together and what doesn't, what is sound and what is absurd etc. Spin of the order that Cameron and Brown were using in this passage both presupposes a lack of thought in the viewer and actively encourages it.
While the sophist or rhetorician worked within the presumption that the audience was thoughtful, and therefore needed to be persuaded by argument. What distinguished him from the philosopher was that the philosopher aimed for truth, whilst the rhetorician took anything he could find to convince people to agree with him irrespective of truth. The tactics used by Brown and Cameron in this interchange, however, were not of an order of logic or rhetoric. Rather, it was a blind hope that the public would, quite literally, not put two and two together at all. They presupposed a public that did not think, that blindly accepted the words coming out of their mouths, such that (if the extreme of this was true) what would decide their vote would be the person to have the last word before going into the booth, not the policies nor the voter them self.
Indeed, I think our society has a trend towards thoughtlessness. Most of the social technologies in place presuppose thoughtlessness. Advertising hopes that you will not question the claims made in the advert, but simply take the advert as an imperative that is to be followed out as quickly as possible. They hope you do not think "But why do I need cillit bang? What if it doesn't actually work? My friends bought some and they said it didn't work, I therefore think that it doesn't work because I trust them more than the company. I'm not going to buy this." They hope you do not think at all.
This presupposition of thoughtlessness is not a case of the politician/company/society presuming that humans do not think, rather it is a sort of 'hope' that the people they want something from do not think. And this hope must actually conform to reality with a large amount of people, otherwise political campaigners could not rely on such methods and advertising companies would have to take a different line all together. We in our society have a tendency not to think. We allow ourselves to be taken in by spin, advertising and the like – and the only way we can do that is by suspending our thought. I am not here trying to say "Urgh, look at Cameron and Brown not using proper arguments! They think that you do not think! Vote Libdem." No. I am saying "Urgh, look at you non-thinkers who by not thinking make possible a thoughtless politics, in which a technology of spin can be developed, perfected and utilised by people like Cameron in order to use you to get into power!"
Now, I'm not claiming that noone in our society thinks, or even that any one person in particular does not think at all. I'm saying that there is a tendency, in far to many people, to not think enough. Possibly enough so that if they all did think properly, the result of the coming election would be radically different than it will be. As a condition, I think it has many causes. For one, an education system based on the indoctrination of information in a pupil in order to pass exams, that is 'answer questions', which in the same breathe discourages and penalises 'asking questions'. This too large a matter to discuss here though.
I'm in favour of anything that starts to break apart this tendency, and I think the debate is one of them. When the politicians (primarily Labour and Conservative) were only ever filmed separately, the spin was much harder to notice and as such was very successful. However, in the debate the contradictions are far too obvious to seriously work. This is the true cause of 'Cleggmania', not because of 'x factor politics' or 'something new', but because the Libdems never had enough media attention to have spin-politics as a serious possibility. Their only voters were the ones that would seriously look into the issues by reading manifestos, and such they had to have serious arguments to sway them rather than relying on an expensive and broadly published media spin campaign. Thus, the leader of their party was an arguer not a spinner, not because he is some sort of perfect politician next to sleezebags but because he has had to be. That is why the debates occasioned such an upsurge in Libdem popularity. Arguments make you think, thinking dissolves spin. You can have as many spin doctors as you want, but it only takes one arguer to make you think and whether you agree with him or not the spin doctors are shown for who they are.

The Leftovers Handbook and Quick Banana and Chocolate Ice-Cream
The Leftovers Handbook is an A-Z of ingredients that are likely to be in your kitchen and might well be in need of using up. There are hundreds of interesting, creative and sometimes very simple ideas to be found within the 288 pages of this book. All the obviously perishable foods such as blackberries, cauliflower and yogurt are covered, but there are plenty of others which are less obvious. How annoying is that last small glassful of sherry in a bottle which is taking up precious cupboard space? Look no further, Suzy has it covered. And how about leftover dhal? Form it into patties, cover in flour and fry. I love dhal and usually make megga quantities to last for a few days. It does sometimes get a bit boring by day three however, so I'm quite excited by this idea. Being vegetarian I skipped over the ideas for anchovies, bacon fat and various other fleshy substances.
I had a go at making chocolate banana ice-cream, which was a simple process of mashing up three very ripe bananas and beating in a tablespoon of chocolate spread. So simple and so good. It went straight into the freezer with no fuss and no having to beat out the ice crystals part way through freezing. It was almost instant ice-cream and tasted a lot nicer than I was expecting – a great way to use up brown bananas.
At the back of my store cupboard, I recently noticed a long forgotten half-empty jar of peanut butter. Turning to Suzy's book, I discovered many wonderful things you can do with peanut butter; the ones Suzy lists are all good clean fun. Take peanutty sweet potato soup -that's one I'll be trying as soon as the opportunity arises. The book is peppered with handy hints which are highlighted in the text. I didn't know, for example, that if you used raw kiwi fruit in jellies, an enzyme it contains prevents setting. Along with the ideas and recipes, there are plenty of tips on what pairs well with what. For instance, kumquats go well with duck, ginger, cranberries and cinnamon. This is by no means a prescriptive book – it is all about encouraging your own creativity.
The ideas and recipes are accompanied by witty and amusing commentary that had me smiling and laughing out loud on more than one occasion. I had the book on my bedside table for a while and dipped into it at random before going to sleep. Whatever page I opened, there was something interesting, useful or funny to read. Chips? Suzy gamely states "there really isn't a lot that can be done with leftover chips but I'll give it a try". And she does manage three possibilities.
There is a section at the back covering basic recipes and techniques that don't readily fit into the A-Z format. This includes Alfredo pasta sauce, which I hadn't heard of before, but will be using regularly from now on in. I've already made it twice and it is blissful – perhaps not surprising given the copious quantities of fat involved. It also covers batters, pancakes and fritters, blanching vegetables, dough, eggs, how to freeze fruit and a number of other useful things.
The Leftovers Handbook by Suzy Bowler is in paperback format and is published by How to Books, 2013. ISBN: 9781908974082. It retails at £12.99.
I'm sending this over to Fab First Fridays hosted by Fiona Maclean as I think this book is worth publicising more widely.

I like the sound of this book very much – a useful book to have in the kitchen.
Fiona Maclean7th September 2013 at 6:30 pm
Thanks for linking up again! I agree it DOES sound like it's worth publicising a bit more, it's one of the few cook books I could see myself using…and I'd never heard of it
Maya Russell3rd November 2013 at 6:13 am
Fab book I'd like to get it. I'm not surprised you found it hard to find recipes for left over chocolate. 🙂
Maya Russell15th November 2013 at 8:11 am
I like peanut butter too so this book would be good for me.
Maya Russell19th November 2013 at 9:45 am
Also looking for guidelines on safety of reusing meat etc.
Lorna MacFadyen30th April 2014 at 5:37 am
what a great idea for a book! I think I am quite a good cook but not very adventurous, much better with a recipe or an idea.. I'd fail miserably at the mystery box round on Masterchef 🙁

"Engines this large cannot simply be built, and instead are germinated in a nutrient rich sludge medium."
When a project was a failure due to X, don't say:
"Yeah, we screwed it up coz of X."
"The operational experience proved the importance of recognising X as a key success criteria."
Also, at any point, about anything, you can say:
"The role is to clear barriers to progress by initiating a variety of actions."
Anyway, obCharlie Stross quote:
"If I'm going to try and write hard-SF, I'd rather get it right than risk tripping into a puddle of vacuous misconceptions and mistaking it for a universe of possibilities." – which is a philosophy with more broad application.
And hurrah for digital controls. Tunes start 20 seconds in. You need sound for this one. Of course, to replicate what this would truly sound like, you either need an astoundingly powerful pair of electrostatic speakers, or the thing itself.
So my head bounced off the shoulder of other guy, landed on my hands and knees and was about to get up and get on with it, when I noticed the blood dripping down onto the inside of my visor. Hmm… time to skate to the bench.
Yes, its Goth Makeup time! Hockey players are all secret goths, to our shame. Anyway, two stitches, and then played the game after. Not as colourful as the last time. Team still unbeaten this season.
Vanity, thy name is blog. tatjna posts vids of her looking slinky, I post bruises and breadboards full of home-built electronics.
My life had reached a steady state, where I had what I needed, what I needed hadn't changed and I just hadn't shopped for ages. Sadly, I need to buy a new helmet. The one I have is slightly too big and I think that if it fitted properly, I wouldn't have bled. Of course, that's merely an assertation unbacked by evidence, so I'm going to have to get a decent helmet and then test it by running full whack at people bigger than me…
The short answer: vehicles running off lithium batteries are much, much better than vehicles burning petrol.
The Saturn moon rocket, at full chat, produced about 3% of the entire world's power. Yup, every coal power stations, nuclear power plant, hydro dams, every car engine, every jet on every plane, all added up, that's numbers in the teraWatts. And one machine made 3% of that (admittedly, only for two and a half minutes).
The engines used 5000 litres of fuel each second.
Anyway, this being the 21st Century, here's this:
What? Me? The smelly dread-locked tree-hugging hippy posting about a car? Especially one that does 0-100 in 4 seconds, top speed of "I'm sorry Sir, you're not allowed to do that", and looks just slinky, like the sexiest Jag that they never got around to building.
Yeah, its electric, lithium batteries, 400 kms range, $1 of electricity will fill the tank. When I have my mid-life crisis, I'm going to get one. Luckily, they'll be available in 2008.
(Also, it doesn't have brakes. Slows down solely by using the motors in reverse.)
This was painted on the blast door of a US nuclear missile bunker:
I am glad to see capitalism repurposing this technology to a better end – intercontinental ballistic pizza delivery.
(As ever, George Orwell said it best, in a few simple words.)
And yesterday's capacitor problem – I worked out how to solve it in software instead, but doesn't everyone do that these days? (Okay, its less EMP resistant, but isn't everything these days? *)
* – Actually, no, anything connected to mains power is probably screwed, coz the thousand kilometres of power cable make a great antenna for picking up EMPs. If it fits in your pocket, no antenna, probably pretty resistant. And everything fits in your pocket these days. Thus ends the lecture on my particular neurosis.

How do you process the clothing?
Our team takes care to return your clothes in great condition. This is a wash and fold service, meaning we put everything in washers and dryers. Since some of our customers prefer to use a normal laundry process for clothes that may be marked with special care instructions, our staff assumes that if you've sent clothing to us, your intention is for it to be laundered using a standard wash process on a normal cycle and tumble dried using heat.
Where should I leave my laundry?
Each Residence Hall has a designated pick-up location, or as we've named it: "Laundry Delivery Station". There, you will find a sign and a Wash Cycle Laundry bin.

What detergents do you use?
We use environmentally friendly detergents certified by the EPA as "Safer Choices."
Are you just middlemen?
Nope! Your laundry is picked up, washed, folded, and delivered by our own employees. It never leaves our care from the time we pick it up to the time we deliver it to you.
How much laundry can I send?
You can fill the bag full! Typically bags fit about two home washers worth of laundry, which is plenty for most of our customers. Students who change often, prefer to launder their bed linen frequently, or go through a lot of clothing (like athletes who send us sweaty gym clothes) may want to opt for twice-per-week service.
What is your refund policy?
We offer full refunds, minus a 3% credit card processing fee, until the first day of service. After service begins, sales are final.

Asked if the "one country, two systems" principle should be extended after 2047 – the end date of Beijing's promise of 50 years without change after the 1997 handover – 69.6 per cent of poll respondents said yes, while six per cent said no.Wapo: Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen: Beijing must respect our democratic will
As for whether the city should become independent, 17.4 said yes while 57.6 per cent said no.
Another 13.8 per cent said Hong Kong should be ruled directly under Beijing, while 59.2 per cent opposed that idea.
Among respondents aged 15 to 24, supporters of independence formed the majority as 39.2 per cent said they supported the idea, compared to 26 per cent who opposed it.
Q: You represent many of the youth who think of themselves as being Taiwanese, not Chinese. They are more pro-independence than the older generation. As president, you want to maintain cross-strait relations for stability, but at the same time, you must keep your followers happy. How do you balance these factors?FP: Taiwan's Kids Are Not All Right
A: Different generations and people of different ethnic origins have different views on China. But they all agree on one thing. That is democracy.
Tsai's rhetoric is not nearly as bold as some of her supporters. Her cautious approach served her well in academia, and may yet help deflect confrontations with Beijing. She does not use the term "independence" in her speeches. Instead, she emphasizes Taiwanese identity. This balancing act was evident in a measured statement at her victory rally. "The results of today's election prove to the world that the Taiwanese are a free people; the Taiwanese are a democratic people," Tsai told the assembled throngs. "As long as I'm president, I will work to make sure that not one of my citizens ever has to apologize for their [national] recognition." The line earned perhaps the loudest cheer of the night, a subtle signal that Tsai, like her supporters, sees Taiwan as a distinct and internally coherent entity. In such a giddy setting, it was enough. But the forces that brought Tsai to power do not share her subtlety. They may end up sweeping her along, or aside, no matter what her careful plans.Cautious or not, identity politics continues to rise around the world.
