10 Bizarre Thanksgiving Foods: Vegan Turkey, Gravy Soda and More
Thanksgiving is a time for the family to come together, tell stories, then sit down and feast on some tasty, belly-expanding deliciousness. Turkey, gravy, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie are all Thanksgiving staples, but if you want to really spice things up a bit this year, we have some ideas.
Bizarre presentation, unusual flavor and the "oddball factor" add new elements to this great tradition. If you're feeling playful and adventurous, you could add a few of these items to your menu.
Boneless Turkey Stuffed With Alligator Dressing
Well, we've come to a traditional Thanksgiving meal at last, but with a twist. This is actually a real turkey, the kind of bird pretty much everyone else carves into at Thanksgiving time, although it's deboned and comes with a catch. Instead of a normal stuffing, this boneless bird is crammed full of alligator dressing, which is comprised of alligator meat, onions, rice, tomatoes and other good stuff. This is definitely a turkey fit for the more adventurous epicures in your family, or anyone who happens to love alligator.
Jones Tofurky & Gravy Soda
What in the world is Tofurky & Gravy Soda, you might be wondering just about now? Well, we're glad you asked. This peculiar novelty drink is a perfect example of truth in advertising. It's a bottled soda that taste like –– yes, you guessed it –– turkey (the vegan kind) and gravy. Yeah, we know, that sounds pretty disgusting. Well, you can always opt for mashed potato soda if tofurky soda won't quench your thirst, or you can try another vegetable or meaty flavor instead. There's just no accounting for taste, it seems…
Pooping Turkey Candy Dispenser
Speaking of taste, here's a questionable yet fun Thanksgiving holiday treat (not food technically, but food related) that will keep the children entertained and laughing all night long. The Pooping Turkey Candy Dispenser does just what the title of this innovative and mildly inappropriate product suggests. You push down on the buttocks of the plastic turkey, and out pops a small candy. In case that wasn't gross enough, the candies are brown, just to make sure there's no doubt about what they're supposed to represent.
Turkey Cranberry Layer Cake
Everyone likes cake. They're sweet and delicious, often covered in gooey frosting and full of sugar. Well, that's usually how you would describe a typical cake, but not so for the Turkey Cranberry Layer Cake. A woman by the name of Amy Wisniewski over at Chow.com came up with his very unusual holiday "treat," if that's how you want to describe it. This is a layered cake with space devoted to all kinds of traditional Thanksgiving foods, from turkey and sweet potatoes to cranberry sauce and marshmallows. Hey, if the food is all going down to the same place (your stomach), does it really matter how it's put together beforehand?
Mashed Potatoes- and Gravy-Flavored Jellybeans
Jellybeans are always a holiday favorite. What about mashed potatoes and gravy-flavored jellybeans? Imagine the surprise of someone biting into one of this holiday candies. They'd probably expect a fruity taste, but they'll get a hefty dose of potatoes and gravy instead. These oddly flavored jellybeans come inside the Harry Potter Bertie Bott's Jelly Beans 3 oz. Bag, which also includes ketchup-, sausage- and onion-flavored beans, among many others.
Turkey-Shaped Jell-O Mold
If you buy and decide to use a turkey Jell-O mold, you'll still end up with normal Jell-O, but you just might be able to fool your friends into thinking that it's a small game bird. If you get creative with the coloring and the types of Jell-O you use, you should be able to get enough of a "meaty" cast to your mold in order to deceive the eye, and make the wobbly Jell-O look like a real turkey. Why would you want to do this? Honestly, we have no idea.
Lay's Turkey-Flavored Potato Chips
If you happened to live in China but still would like some of the nostalgia associated with Thanksgiving back home, why not pick up a bag of Lay's Turkey-Flavored Potato Chips? These chips, produced by one of the world's snacking giants, are supposed to taste like turkey and gravy. Unfortunately, you can only find them overseas. Since ham- and other meat-flavored chips are already in existence, these chips aren't really a big stretch of the imagination. Just think of all the prep and cooking time you'll save. Simply tear open a bag, and enjoy.
Vegan Whole Turkey
Do you want a turkey that's not a turkey? If you're a vegan or vegetarian who still wants to enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday sprit, you can bake a vegan whole turkey instead of the real deal. The vegan birds are typically made from raw cane sugar, soybean fiber, soybean protein, starch vegetable protein and other non-animal products, then molded into the shape of a butchered turkey. The most striking feature about these turkeys is how closely they resemble the actual animal. Okay, we concede, these birds may not be for the vegan purists out there.
Pumpkin Pie Pop-Tarts
Pop-Tarts make us think of our childhood, waiting around the toaster for something sweet and sticky to pop out. Well, if you're a fan of filled pastries, and you're a lover of holiday traditions, you can now take heart. Kellogg's offers a limited run on Pumpkin Pie Pop-Tarts. You'll get frosting, sprinkles, and pumpkin-pie flavors (clove, nutmeg and cinnamon), toasted and warm, ready for you and your friends to instantly devour.
Thanksgiving Gumballs
This Thanksgiving idea seems like a pretty good one. Yes, you'll find turkey-flavored gumballs in the mix, but thankfully the manufacturers also stuck with some more appropriate flavors, like pumpkin pie and cranberry. We're not sure if this is something you'd want to serve with your big holiday meal, but if the kids get bored or you're scrounging around for something to eat later on, you might be able to calm them down and pique their curiosity with a few Thanksgiving gumballs.

Important Steps in Your Cat's Dental Care
A cat with bad breath has much more than a social problem. Unlike humans, kitties with halitosis are probably in considerable pain and their lives may be in danger. That's because cats with unpleasant breath probably suffer from feline dental disease. This condition not only gives a cat bad breath and more than a little pain while eating, but it can also cause infections in the gums that may migrate to vital organs, such as the heart and the kidneys, possibly resulting in serious illness and even death. Although the American Veterinary Dental Society notes that 70 percent of cats develop dental problems by the age of three, your cat doesn't have to be one of them. All you need to do is brush its teeth regularly, following these six steps:
Step 1: Buy the right brush and paste
Experts agree that toothpaste for people shouldn't be used to clean feline teeth. Since cats don't spit out the toothpaste after brushing, regular fluoridated paste could upset your cat's stomach. Instead, buy toothpaste specially designed for cats. Also purchase a child's toothbrush with soft bristles. But don't plan on using either right away. You need to first prep your cat for what lies ahead.
Step 2: Get in position
Introduce your cat to the place where you'll be doing the toothbrushing. "Start by just putting your cat up on a counter top, or on your lap, or wherever you ultimately would like to do the toothbrushing, and give a reward," suggests Valerie Creighton, DVM, president of the American Association of Feline Practitioners. "That can be a small food treat or scratching of the cheeks –whatever makes the cat happy."
Step 3: Try using a tantalizing lure
After a few days at the tooth-brushing place, begin to help your cat realize that getting its mouth worked on can be a good thing. Bring your cat to where you plan to brush the teeth, and "put some tuna fish juice on the edge of a cotton swab," suggests Jan Bellows, DVM, a veterinary dentist in Weston, Fla. "Then, apply it to the area where the gums meet the teeth." Finish with a treat.
Step 4: Introduce the toothpaste
Next, help your cat discover the pleasures of toothpaste made just for the feline set. At the brushing zone, "introduce the toothpaste by letting the cat sniff at the uncapped tube, followed by a treat," recommends Dr. Creighton, who practices in Thousand Oaks, Calif. After a day or two of sniffing the tube, put some toothpaste on your finger for your cat to sniff or lick each day.
Step 5: Bring on the toothbrush
After a few days of taking the toothpaste from your finger, your cat should be ready to accept it from a toothbrush. "Get the cat used to the presence of the brush without forcing it into the mouth," Dr. Creighton suggests. Once your cat is used to seeing the brush, try placing your hands on its face and running your fingers along its lips as though you were getting ready to brush the teeth — but stop short of actually doing so.
Step 6: Brush the teeth
If you detect that your feline friend is comfortable with the brush and having your hands near its mouth then you're ready to try actually brushing its teeth. If your cat still bristles at the bristles, don't give up. Instead, try lifting your cat's lips with your fingertips and gently brushing the outer surfaces of your pet's teeth. If worst comes to worst, your cat can take care of the inside surfaces with the abrasive action of its tongue until you can take it to your veterinarian for a full, professional tooth cleaning, which should be done at least once a year and up to four times annually if gum disease has already set in.
DIY Care
You can check for dental and gum disease as you work with your cat. Look for symptoms including brown or yellow staining on the teeth, red or swollen gums and bleeding gums. Even if you regularly take your cat for professional toothbrushings, keep in mind that more than your feline's teeth will be clean after each visit. You'll then have a clean slate upon which to start acclimating your cat to a home dental care routine.
"This process may take several weeks, but by the end, you and your kitty will be far less traumatized by the idea of you brushing its teeth," Dr. Creighton predicts. "And you'll be well on your way to a healthy habit where your cat's teeth are concerned."

Hi all,
On Facebook I follow a feed from disciples of Thich Nhat Hanh. Everyday they post messages like "Make Time For Yourself; You Are Important" and "Forgive Yourself". So many of the quotes are self-obsessed. Is this Mindfulness movement appealing to a "Me" generation that amounts to a selfish and egotistical approach to the Dharma? Indeed, is it the Dharma stripped of Dharma?
As much as Thich Nhat Hanh is himself an authentic teacher and a man of the way.

Over 100,000 people attend the Paris Salon du Chocolate for 5 days.
And walls of buyers too. Ah, the decisions...
Every Paris arrondissement has it's small local family-run artisanal chocolate shops and they've been around for ages. Residents are loyal and buy chocolates weekly as they buy baguettes daily from the local boulangerie. And don't forget the small chocolate shops all over France!
The space at Porte de Versailles is similar to the Javits Convention center in size and height.
It may take me a week to get through all my chocolate show stories. Be patient.
Then we can forget chocolate and move on or not :)

In this video, we can see the talk with Sushma Karki about the secrete of her body fitness. Sushma Karki is Nepalese model and film actress. She debuted her acting career from the movie Mero Euta Saathi Cha.
Traveling gives us the opportunity to disconnect from our regular life. You get to forget your problems/issues for a few weeks, it can also help you figure things out that you would not have understood without the distance travelling can give you. We all have crazy schedules, work and a family to take care of, going away alone or with some friends can give you distance and perhaps even make you realize how important these people are for you. Like the saying says: we never know what we have until we lose it.
Another great benefit is the relaxation you get to do. It's nice to live life to its fullest and enjoy a stress-free time with yourself. Going on vacation lets us recharge our "batteries" by disconnecting us from our regular life. When we come back we feel invigorated and we are happy to be back in our day to day routine. It's a very good stress remover that has a lot more to give than most people are willing to accept.
Traveling increases our knowledge and widens our perspective. To view new customs, different ways of living is fantastic for the mind. It gives us a new perspective on life and especially our life, it can help us change some of our habits or even create new ones. When I travel I usually make it a point to try new food, some cultures don't have fries in their diet and they are all skinny, others use spices to give taste and not oils or fats. Discovering different values and ways to get by in life is really interesting. You also need to visit exotic new places and discover what this wonderful world has to offer.

SEATTLE -- On the morning before they were supposed to be married, U.S. women's soccer team goalkeeper Hope Solo and former NFL tight end Jerramy Stevens were involved in an altercation that left Stevens in jail and their wedding plans up in the air, police said.
Stevens was arrested early Monday for fourth-degree domestic violence assault but was not charged. He was eventually released when a Kirkland Municipal Court judge ruled there was no evidence connecting him to an assault.
Kirkland police said the case was still under investigation, and charges could be brought later if prosecutors and police find other evidence, a police spokesman told The Associated Press.
Stevens, 33, and Solo, 31, applied for a marriage license Thursday, according to King County records. The couple, who have been in a relationship for two months, were reportedly set to be married on Tuesday.
In the police report, Stevens said he and Solo had been arguing over whether they would live in Washington or Florida after the marriage.
Solo appeared in the courtroom on Tuesday, but left without saying anything to reporters, according to KING-TV.
A call to a number listed for Stevens in court documents went unanswered. A message left at a listed number for Solo was not immediately returned, the AP reported.
Police in Kirkland responded to a disturbance at a home around 3:45 a.m. Monday involving a physical altercation between eight people during a party, said Kirkland Police Lt. Mike Murray.
He said officers contacted several people in the home who appeared intoxicated and didn't cooperate with police, but determined based on information and observations that there was probable cause to arrest Stevens for investigation of fourth-degree assault. Murray didn't identify the alleged victim, but court records show it was Solo, who received a cut to her elbow.
Court documents show that Solo's 34-year-old brother, Marcus, called 911, and that he and Solo told officers there was a party and blamed the disturbance on two to three unknown men who were at the party. Marcus Solo told police he used a stun gun on one of the men, who left the party before police arrived, according to court records.
According to court documents, a police officer found Stevens, "who appeared to be hiding," lying between the bed and the wall in an upstairs bedroom. Stevens told officers he was sleeping on the floor and didn't hear the fight. The officer saw signs of a fight, and dried blood on Stevens' shirt.
The officer noted in his affidavit for probable cause for arrest that he arrested Stevens based on his admission that he argued with Hope Solo, the injury to her elbow, signs of a fight in the bedroom where Stevens was found, and blood on Stevens' shirt.
One 32-year-old woman was taken to the hospital for treatment of a hip injury, and another man suffered multiple bumps, scrapes and contusions, Murray said.
"If officers find that an assault may have taken place, then we have to make an arrest on who we determine is the primary aggressor," Murray said.
Stevens was selected with the No. 28 pick of the 2002 draft by the Seattle Seahawks after playing at the University of Washington. But he also was involved in incidents away from football that included reckless driving charges for crashing into a nursing home.
He was mostly a first-round bust with the Seahawks, except for the 2005 season when he started a career-high 12 games and had 45 receptions as the Seahawks won the NFC championship.
He also was arrested on reckless driving charges in 2003 in a Seattle suburb and in 2007 when he was charged with driving under the influence in Scottsdale, Ariz.
Stevens' most recent arrest came in 2010, while he was playing for Tampa Bay; he was arrested the night before a game for possession of marijuana. He was released almost immediately by the team.
Information from The Associated Press is included in this report.

David Letterman Interviews Paul McCartney And Ringo Starr For CBS Beatles Tribute
As if the idea of seeing Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr performing together wasn't enough! CBS has just announced that The Night That Changed America: A GRAMMY Salute To The Beatles will feature an interview with McCartney and Starr conducted by the current resident of the Ed Sullivan Theater, David Letterman.
Letterman interviewed the two at the Ed Sullivan Theater yesterday (February 4), without a studio audience. Of course, that theater was the site of the actual "night that changed America" in 1964: the Beatles' first appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show.
It's that earth-shaking event that is being celebrated on the The Night That Changed America; the show, which was filmed the night after the GRAMMYs, featured performances by McCartney and Starr, both together and apart, and a number of other A-list artists including Stevie Wonder, Alicia Keys, Dave Grohl, Katy Perry and the reunited Eurythmics.
The Night That Changed America: A GRAMMY Salute To The Beatles will air on Sunday, February 9 at 8 pm ET (50 years to the day and time that the Beatles made their debut).

Thursday Night Football Recap — Bears Beat Giants, 27-21
Jay Cutler passed for 262 yards and two touchdowns, and the Chicago defense intercepted New York's Eli Manning three times, as the Bears beat the Giants, 27-21, at Soldier Field on Thursday night. Chicago (4-2) remained atop the NFC North, while New York (0-6) stayed winless.
Manning threw interceptions on the Giants' first two possessions of the game, including one that was returned 48 yards for a touchdown by Tim Jennings with 9:50 left in the first quarter. A 4-yard touchdown run by Brandon Jacobs later knotted the score at 7-7 heading into the second quarter.
The Bears raced out to a 24-14 halftime lead behind Cutler, who threw scoring passes of 10 and three yards to Brandon Marshall, each sandwiched around Manning's 37-yard touchdown to Rueben Randle. Chicago kicker Robbie Gould added a 40-field goal before the half.
After Gould connected on a 52-yard kick early in the third quarter, Jacobs' second touchdown run at the end of the period brought the Giants to within 27-21. However, New York was unable to sustain another drive, and the Bears wrapped up the victory when Jennings picked off Manning for the second time in the game with 1:54 to play.
Marshall finished with nine catches for 87 yards and two touchdowns for Chicago. Jacobs ran for 106 yards and two scores for New York. Manning threw for 239 yards, a touchdown and the three costly interceptions.

A comprehensive plan is a written document identifying goals, policies, and strategies for the growth and development of a community. The plan reflects community values and provides a guide for making land use changes, planning capital improvement programs, and directing future growth. Comprehensive plans often address the topics of:
Most importantly, the plan should address those opportunities and issues that will affect the city's growth, development, and vitality in the future.
The City of Garland is legally required to have and maintain a comprehensive plan. Garland's first comprehensive plan was developed in the 1960s. The most recent plan was initially developed in the 1980s and has been periodically updated. Envision Garland is the next comprehensive plan that addresses the community's future through 2030.
The Envision Garland plan does not impact current zoning regulations or property usage. A comprehensive plan is a written document identifying goals, policies, and strategies for the growth and development of a community. The plan reflects the community's vision for its future and provides a guide for making future decisions.
Garland citizens and the City of Garland have been working together on Envision Garland for over two years. Several hundred Garland stakeholders have participated in the formulation of Envision Garland. Their hopes and vision for our community's future have been sought by the City through surveys, community workshops, and other public outreach activities. Local Garland stakeholder input and vision is the foundation of Envision garland, and that public support has been invaluable.
A summary of public input methods and events can be reviewed through three documents: the Citywide Opinion Survey (PDF), the Community Visioning Workshop Report (PDF), and the Growing the Vision Workshop Series Report (PDF).
In November 2010, we hosted a series of open house events to showcase the preliminary concepts for neighborhoods, activity centers, and employment districts in the future. The Plan Commission has hosted a series of public hearings on Envision Garland to discuss the draft comprehensive plan. Future public hearings will be advertised and posted as they are scheduled.

RG3 and the Washington Redskins are heading to the playoffs as NFC East champions.
By winning their seventh straight game, the Redskins rolled to their first division title in 13 years with a 28-18 victory over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night. Next up for Robert Griffin III & Co.: a home playoff matchup next Sunday with the Seahawks — the third straight postseason game for Washington against Seattle.
"It's just a mindset change," the rookie quarterback said. "When you have all these guys coming to work every day, putting it on the line, we knew we couldn't afford to lose one game, we made sure we didn't"
Thanks to Houston's late-season slump, Denver and New England will have byes when the AFC playoffs begin next week.
The Texans fell from first to third in the conference Sunday when they lost 28-16 at Indianapolis, which welcomed back coach Chuck Pagano after nearly three months of treatments for leukemia.
AFC West champion Denver won its 11th straight game, 38-3 over Kansas City to secure the top seed. New England blanked Miami 28-0 for the second spot.
Minnesota edged Green Bay 37-34 to grab the final NFC wild card, sinking the Packers to the third seed. Those teams will meet again next Saturday night at Lambeau Field.
The other NFC matchup will have Seattle (11-5), which beat St. Louis 20-13, at Washington on Sunday at 4:30 p.m. ET.
Cincinnati (10-6) will be at Houston on Saturday at 4:30 p.m. ET, and Indianapolis (11-5) goes to at Baltimore (10-6) on Sunday at 1 p.m. in the AFC wild-card rounds.
The divisional round games will be hosted by Denver on Saturday, Jan. 12, followed by San Francisco (11-4-1) at night. On Sunday, Jan. 13, Atlanta (13-3) will host the early game, followed by New England (12-4).
Peyton Manning threw for three touchdowns as Denver (13-3) routed the Chiefs.
New England got the second seed despite having the same record as Houston because it beat the Texans, who lost three of their final four games.
Adrian Peterson had 199 yards against the Packers, finishing with 2,097 — Dickerson's single-season rushing mark in 2,105. But it was rookie kicker Blair Walsh who won it with a 29-yard field goal as time expired.
"Ultimately we got the 'W,'" Peterson said. "I told myself to come into this game focused on one thing, and that's winning."
Green Bay would have been seeded second in the NFC by beating Minnesota.
"The road got a little tougher having to play on opening weekend, but we've got a home game and that's why you win the division," Aaron Rodgers said. "We get to go back home, and the game will be different. They won't have home-crowd advantage, and hopefully that will make a difference."
Baltimore Pro Bowl safety Ed Reed is looking forward to a reunion with Pagano.
He wishes it would come a little later in the postseason.
"Chuck's like a dad to me," Reed said "He means a lot to me. I would have much rather seen them in the AFC championship game than the first game."
But Reed will see him next week at Baltimore.
The Ravens had a chance to move up to the AFC's third seed with a win and a New England loss.
But Baltimore lost at Cincinnati as both teams played backups for much of the game.
Pagano coached the Ravens' secondary for three seasons and was promoted to coordinator last year. Players and coaches in Baltimore have kept in touch, offering encouragement as he fought through the cancer treatments.
"Going back to Baltimore, obviously there's some familiarity there," Pagano said. "We had four great years there as a family. It's a top-notch organization, you know, really good football club. It's a great challenge and they have a great team and they have great players all over the place."
The Colts were 2-14 last season and chose quarterback Andrew Luck with the top selection in the draft. Luck and offensive coordinator Bruce Arians, who stepped in as interim coach with Pagano sidelined, led the turnaround.
Next week, Pagano goes up against former boss John Harbaugh.
"I love his family, and he's one of my closest personal friends in coaching," Harbaugh said. "What he's been through is phenomenal, but we're all competitors so that gets set aside."
Houston beat Cincinnati in the opening round of last year's playoffs.
"I think it will be good," said Bengals QB Andy Dalton, who grew up in suburban Houston. "We played there last year and know the atmosphere and what it's going to be like. The experience last year will definitely help us."
The defending Super Bowl champion Giants are out of contention. When Chicago beat Detroit 26-24, the Giants (9-7) were eliminated, even though they routed Philadelphia 42-7.
"It hurts," said Eli Manning. "Each year you want to make the playoffs to give yourself an opportunity to win a championship; 9-7 last year was good enough. It wasn't good enough this year and we knew it wouldn't be."
Minnesota's win eliminated Chicago.
Redskins win NFC East, Broncos get top seed in AFC

Divorce, it seems, has turned into a party -- special cakes and all.
Event planners, bakers, lawyers and academics note the rise of "divorce parties" over the last several years, many with cakes featuring weapon-wielding brides or gloomy black frosting on inverted tiers.
"I've taken to naming them freedom fests, as you aren't celebrating the end of the marriage but the freedom you have chosen in your life," said Richard O'Malley, a New York-area event planner who organized one divorce blowout that cost a woman about $25,000.
Michal Ann Strahilevitz, a marketing professor at Golden Gate University in San Francisco, has been to a few such parties and sees them as part of a larger trend in celebrations.
"People are also celebrating `coming out' to their parents or co-workers, and the birthdays of their pets. Cancer survivors are celebrating relevant milestones of being cancer-free. There has been an enormous increase in the variety of things that Americans celebrate," she said.
So why not a divorce, asks Steve Wolf, who lives outside Austin, Texas. He marked his amicable split with a party co-hosted by his ex that included a gluten-free cake she baked herself in lemon, a favorite flavor for both of them.
Wolf, the father of three boys, considers the end of his marriage a "conscious uncoupling." Yes, like Gwyneth Paltrow. The party, he said, offered closure, especially important because kids were involved.
The Scene
"We wanted to do something that expressed the fact that we were doing the divorce not so much as an end of our relationship but as us moving into things like co-parenting and co-business management," said Wolf, whose former wife works for him in his special effects and stunt business serving the film industry.
"We cut the cake together like we did the wedding cake 10 years before. When life gives you lemons, make lemon cake," he joked, noting the sentiment she wrote in the icing.
In suburban Orlando, Florida, cake designer Larry Bach recalled creating his first divorce confection about eight years ago for a woman whose wedding cake he had made 18 months prior.
"She said, `Your wedding cake was the best part of my marriage,"' he recalled. "We came up with this upside-down cake, with the cake landing on the groom. I've repeated that design several times. I think it's a healthy thing. When my sister got divorced about 25 years ago, she and my mother went into mourning. Divorce was so embarrassing in those days."
Family law attorney Jennifer Paine in Ann Arbor, Michigan, sees the divorce cake -- blood-themed or otherwise -- as a fresh take on closure.
"For divorce, that means the final date of divorce, when all of the hard work and emotions are over," she said. "It used to mean going out with buddies. Then there was the era of sending a divorce card, then the trip to Las Vegas, and now parties."
Parties, O'Malley noted, that include cakes with the wife pushing the husband off the top tier or edible divorce decrees scanned on. Dessert chef Lisa Stevens in Tampa, Florida, makes one divorce cake a month now, a steady climb over the last year.
"We call them freedom cakes. The first one was maybe six years ago. It was ordered by a guy. It had a groom with a broken heart on his lapel," she said. "I try to redirect the anger to a more positive place when it comes to the cake."
Duff Goldman, chef and owner of Charm City Cakes in Baltimore and Charm City Cakes West in Los Angeles, said he has been creating divorce cakes for a decade, with one or so orders a month nowadays.
"We're thrilled to put a positive spin on what can be a difficult and stressful time for people," said Duff, whose custom cakes were featured on the Food Network reality show "Ace of Cakes" from 2006 to 2011.
O'Malley's first big divorce client popped up two years ago. She's the one who hosted the $25,000 bash at a fancy venue, complete with a cocktail reception, sit-down dinner, toasts and an eight-piece band. She wore white, though not her wedding gown.
"We set up a chapel-looking area and her father walked down the aisle by himself to take her back, instead of give her away," said O'Malley, who has handled several divorce parties since.
The bridesmaid who caught the woman's bouquet eight years prior threw one back to her, he said. Wedding gifts were photographed, placed in silver frames and given to gifters in attendance.
"This is something you don't have to regret, like the wedding," O'Malley said. "It's something without any shame."

Eye Candy Applications refer to the decoration of the graphical user interface. These can be add-on icons, themes, wallpapers, 3-D effects, etc. Gnome Eye-Candy Resources * Gnome Look has wallpapers, splash screens, icons, and themes for windows managers (including Metacity and Compiz) and other applications.
Metacity is the default desktop compositing manager in Gnome. It is lightweight, streamlined and does not have many configurable options, but has multiple themes available at Gnome Look.
Compiz Fusion
Compiz Fusion is available as a separate Windows Manager, to allow advanced desktop effects such as the rotating cube desktop. Many Ubuntu users choose to run Compiz, which is quite fast in Ubuntu. Install:
sudo apt-get install compiz compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-fusion-plugins-main compiz-fusion-plugins-extra emerald librsvg2-common
To change to Compiz as the Window Manager:
Note: You must logout and log back in for the change to take effect.
* Select Compiz Configuration:
System -> Preferences -> CompizConfig Settings Manager
Fusion Icon
Fusion Icon is a tray icon that allows you to easily switch between window managers, window decorators, and gives you quick access to the Settings Manager. This allows quick toggling of 3-D desktop effects (that may not be compatible with some applications).
sudo apt-get install fusion-icon
Applications -> System Tools -> Compiz Fusion Icon
You can then easily access CompizConfig Settings Manager from the icon.
Rotate the Compiz Cube
Set the CompizConfig Settings Manager to enable the "Desktop Cube" and "Rotate Cube" and "Viewport Switcher" options. Click on the icon for each to customize settings. For example, to change the appearance of the cube, click on the Desktop Cube icon to access its settings. You can set the hotkey buttons for rotating the cube in the "Viewport Switcher" settings. Otherwise, hold down the Ctrl+Alt+Left mouse button and drag the mouse (or touchpad) the direction you want to rotate the cube.
Remember, the cube rotates between desktops. It's not a cube unless you have at least 4 desktops running. You will not get a cube if you are only using 2 desktops (you will get a "plate"). You can still rotate the sides of the plate, of course, but it will not be a cube. (Recent users from the Windows OS may have no experience with the concept of simultaneous desktops, but they are nice once you learn how to use them).
When running Compiz fusion as the Windows Manager, you must change the default number of desktops from within CompizConfig Settings Manger. To enable 4 desktops:
CompizConfig Settings Manager -> General -> General Options -> Desktop Size -> Horizontal Virtual Size -> 4
When you start an application, you can assign it to any one of the 4 desktops by right-clicking the upper left corner of the application window and choosing the "To Desktop…" option. Rotating the cube shows the different desktops. You can also go to a desktop using the taskbar icon which shows the 4 desktops.
Emerald is the theme engine for Compiz Fusion. Multiple themes are available. (These themes originated from the Beryl project before it merged with Compiz to form Compiz Fusion.) The Emerald Theme Manager for Compiz Fusion can be installed:
sudo apt-get install emerald
Ubuntu Wallpaper
* Download free Earthenibex wallpapers.
Change USplash Boot Screen
This is the splash screen you see at bootup, when you are asked for a login and password. You can change the USplash screen using the utility startupmanager. (Startup Manager can also be used to change GRUB bootup settings if you use multiple OS's on your computer). Install:
sudo apt-get install startupmanager
System -> Administration -> Startup Manager
You could alternatively use a different splashscreen manager, Splashy, instead of USplash. Install:
sudo apt-get install splashy splashy-themes
Google Desktop
Google Desktop for Linux is a proprietary suite of widgets and applications to give Google control over your computer and thereby allow you to use Google services. A .deb package can be downloaded and installed from Google Linux Downloads. For installation instructions, see Google Desktop for Linux Instructions.
Dock applications
Avant Window Manager, Cairo Dock, and Wbar are dock-like applications for Ubuntu Linux. A dock represents running programs as icons at the bottom of the screen (as is done on the Mac OS X desktop), instead of by toolbar panel segments (as is done in Windows and other Linux window managers). See this brief comparison of dock applications.
Avant Window Manager
* Avant Window Manager requires that a desktop composition manager (such as Metacity, Compiz, Xcompmgr, KDE4 (Kubuntu), or xfwm4 (Xubuntu)) be installed and running.
* Install and upgrade proprietary nVidia or ATI graphics drivers so that the compositing manager functions properly.
* Install AWM:
sudo apt-get install avant-window-navigator awm-manager
(Note: If you are using Gnome (Ubuntu) and do not already have a compositing manager installed (such as Compiz), Metacity will be installed as part of the installation.)
* Enable automatic startup of AWM at bootup:
* Menu -> System -> Preferences -> Sessions -> Add…
* Select which applets should run from the dock menu by default:
* Menu -> Applications -> Accessories -> Avant Window Navigator Manager
You can drag application icons onto the list, then activate or deactivate the applets from the list.
Cairo Dock
Cairo Dock can be used either with a desktop compositing manager (such as Metacity for Gnome, Compiz, or the KDE4 Window Manager) or without one. See the Ubuntu installation instructions for details. It is available from the repositories:
sudo apt-get install cairo-dock cairo-dock-plugins
wbar is a quick-launch bar (not a dock) that has an appearance similar to Avant Window Manager and Cairo Dock. It is GTK (Gnome) based but can work in all desktop environments. It does not require a compositing manager to be installed and is therefore quicker and more suitable for low-end hardware systems. It is the default in the Google gOS desktop and is available as a .deb package from Google. Download and install (from the command-line Terminal):
wget http://wbar.googlecode.com/files/wbar_1.3.3_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i wbar_1.3.3_i386.deb
* Start wbar with custom start options (e.g. by pressing alt+F2). Here is an example:
wbar -isize 48 -j 1 -p bottom -balfa 40 -bpress -nanim 3 -z 2.5 -above-desk
Here is another example:
wbar -above-desk -pos bottom -isize 60 -nanim 1 -bpress -jumpf 0.0 -zoomf 1.5
For a full list of command-line startup options, see:
wbar –help
Tip: If you want the "wave" effect just increase the -nanim value. I like the icons to just pop up so I don't use it, but with 9 icons 5 there is a nice "wave" effect.
Obviously, you could create a menu item with the command line options (similar to the examples above), or a batch file that can be automatically started at system startup (as a cron event or startup session).
You can also change wbar startup options by editing the configuration file:
sudo gedit /usr/share/wbar/dot.wbar
See this example configuration file. However, not all options are able to be set from the configuration file and must be run from the command line. For more info see this wbar guide.
A simple wbar configuration utility can be downloaded as a .deb package and installed:
wget http://koti.kapsi.fi/~ighea/wbarconf/wbarconf_0.7.2-1_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i wbarconf_0.7.2-1_i386.deb

My stepdad is a man of many talents, and I was pleasantly surprised to learn that among them was a prowess for canning and preserving. Chow-chow, dilly beans, and pepper jelly are some of the many goodies that he has stocked in the basement.
A new and unique discovery for me was a jar of--I won't dance around it--extremely unappetizing brown stuff he called chutney.
I've worked with a few Indian gals and also peruse many a blog focused on Indian cuisine, so I always thought chutney was more of a thin, saucy accompaniment to their spicy dishes. The Americanized version is quite different--its consistency is more like that of jelly or perhaps relish and it boasts both sweet and sour taste profiles.
I was instructed to eat this homemade chutney with some brown beans; it was implied that there was something magical about the combination. I did as I was told, and boy, did I ever love that first mouthful! The creamy and slightly salty brown beans were the perfect vehicle for this juicy chutney, which contained pears that dissolved on the tongue, chewy and plump raisins, and tiny bits of sweet onion. There was a bit of heat in the background and a major zap from the vinegar. I could hardly register everything going on in my mouth all at once!
I've heard dishes described as being complex, but until now, I don't think I truly knew what that meant. The medley and balance of flavors here is absolutely an experience you don't want to miss! Yes, chutney will definitely brighten up a dish of boring ol' beans, but I wouldn't mind eating it with tortilla chips or--heck, we're all friends here--straight from the jar with a spoon.
Charlie's Chomp-worthy Chutney
4 quarts pears, peeled and finely chopped
1 cup raisins
1 cup onion, chopped
2-3 cups brown sugar, based on your tastes
1/4 cup mustard seed
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon salt
1 hot red pepper
3 cups vinegar
Combine all ingredients and cook slowly until thick, about 40 minutes. Stir frequently to avoid sticking. Pour, boiling hot, into hot pint jars, leaving 1/4-inch head space. Adjust caps. Process 10 minutes in boiling water bath.
Yield = about 7 pints.

Lucky you being the recipient of that yummo chutney. The chutney my mum makes tends to be in that style as well, a bit "jammy" and thick, with a sweet, sour, spicy balance. And oh yes, i eat it with a spoon too :)

Aren't you lucky to have a stepdad who loves to can? Bet he does jams too! Any chutney I've ever had is thick, usually has mangoes in it and not much heat; his recipe sounds packed with all sorts of great flavors...

Whoa. You have my tastebuds working this morning imagining the sweet and sour in this combo. I've used chutney as an ingredient for bbq meat but haven't made my own. Pears are an interesting part of this -- used to seeing mango. Definitely Hoo-ah on beans. :)

I grew up with the disturbing brown chutney, and it took a lot of work for my mom to convince me to try it. But I agree that once I did, the flavors were intense and complex and delightfully contrary. I will have to try this version during my next canning-a-thon!

I've had chutney, but only with Indian food, which means only in restaurants really. The recipe sounds very intense, 3 cups of vinegar! Definitely sounds like it will wake up the tastebuds...

I love chutney! It really fancies up some plain roasted meats, and I can't believe I never added it to beans!

I've never had chutney before either, I usually stay away from the stuff due to my complex texture issues (complex being that there is no rhyme or reason to what I do and don't like).

I'm so glad you shared this recipe, Grace! Not only does it sound fantastic, but when pear season (like apple, cherry, strawberry season, etc.) comes around I go a little crazy when I see the prices so low. This will give me a wonderful use for all the bushels of pears I'm sure to buy! :)

Delicious! I always avoided chutneys because for some reason they always sounded (and looked) unappetizing.. until I made some rhubarb chutney when I was visiting my parents and Christmas. Wow! Was I missing out! This pear chutney looks equally delicious. I will have to try it out!

There are as many chutneys as there are curries in India, i.e., they can be more or less cooked down and more or less sweet. I love the sweet and sour ones myself--you would like the chutneys on my blog also I bet. If you leave them free of Indian spicing (some do some don't), they are good on loads of things, I agree. This one looks fantastic; hooray for your stepdad. :)

Honestly? I think we should have a giant foodie potluck campout one week each summer. I am going to have to think about this one. Bloggers unite. Camp. Cook. Eat. Talk. Teach. Share. What could be better? Well, maybe the facilities. It is just easier to know you have a kitchen in a campground than in a hotel. But that might be arranged, too.

West Fork Complex: Wind shift offers hope to save South Fork from fire
West Fork Complex: Wind shift offers hope to save South Fork from fire
24 June 2013
published by www.denverpost.com
USA — SOUTH FORK Shifting winds and hard work by firefighters saved the town of South Fork on Friday. But the danger is far from over.
The West Fork complex, a combination of three wildfires West Fork, Windy Pass and Papoose is continuing to spread in steep, rugged terrain through beetle-killed spruce on the west side of Wolf Creek Pass in southwestern Colorado. Conditions will remain hot and dry on Saturday.
"We have fire crews stationed around town, ready," Mayor Kenneth Brooke said. Those crews worked to remove any debris or woods near threatened structures, shutting down propane tanks.
"We are at the mercy of this thing," South Fork Police Chief James Garcia said.
Garcia stressed that, despite some reports on social media, no structures in town have been lost.
"There hasn't been a flame in town all day," he said around 6:30 p.m.
Cloud cover and shifting winds late in the afternoon gave crews a boost in their battle on Friday afternoon, said U.S. Forest Service spokesman Bruce Palmer.
At 7:30 p.m., more firefighters were able to advance southwest from town to reinforce the crews closer to the blaze.
Resources assigned to the area included 32 engine crews and two hand crews, according to officials with the emergency operation center in Alamosa. There were 275 personnel working Friday afternoon, fire officials said.
The town, with an estimated population of 600, is located in Rio Grande County and is noted for a scene from the 1983 Chevy Chase movie "National Lampoon's Vacation," which was filmed there.
During the summer, the area's population can swell to about 4,000, including campers and vacationers.
"South Fork evacuees need to prepare to spend at least a couple of days away from home," Matt Smith, Colorado Wildfire Information administrator, said in a news release.
Amateur pictures of the blaze posted on social media showed a Hollywood-like inferno, with glowing smoke looming above the town.
Up to 100 miles from town, thick haze caused cars to use their headlights during the day while the smell of burning wood was inescapable.
The fire has burned almost 40,000 acres and forced the closure of U.S. 160 over Wolf Creek Pass as well as Colorado 149.
Resting toward the end of a long day at the Big Meadows Campground, near the spot where the fire started, Kendall Strand, of the elite Monument-based Pike Hot Shots unit, said: "One of the biggest things I noticed is all the dead trees. It's just dry.
"Once it's in there, it's pretty intense. I haven't seen a lot like it …
"We were doing what we could. It's not over."
Major Lawrence Martin of the State Patrol said erratic winds made the fire especially dangerous.
"We are afraid if it gets across Highway 149, it has the potential to run right into Saguache (nearly 50 miles to the northeast)," he said.
Penny Bertram, a West Fork fire spokeswoman with the National Incident Management Organization team, said that the fire had been actively burning for 12 hours a day, helping it grow rapidly.
Brooke said there were a few residents who didn't evacuate Friday.
On the east edge of town, near the Alpine subdivision on the banks of the Rio Grande River, Al Keefe and a friend pleaded with a Rio Grande County sheriff's deputy for information on an 85-year-old acquaintance who had refused to leave his house.
"All we are doing is a favor for his wife," Keefe told the deputy. "We want to make sure he is all right."
The deputy radioed to colleagues inside the town and reported back.
"He will not leave," the deputy said. "We can't force him to leave. He said he would pick up and leave if the flames get close enough."
The fires that make up the complex are believed to have been started by lightning.
Other wildfires around the state also continued their paths of destruction.
In southern Colorado, the East Peak fire, 10 miles southwest of Walsenburg, grew to 9,400 acres with zero percent containment.
Gov. John Hickenlooper declared a disaster emergency Friday afternoon, authorizing $3 million from the Disaster Emergency Fund to pay for fire suppression, response and recovery for East Peak. He also announced on Twitter that federal funds would be available for the West Fork complex.
The East Peak fire has destroyed at least nine homes and four outbuildings, including the Boy Scout ranch. The cause of that blaze is still unknown.
Closer to Denver, firefighters worked to keep the Lime Gulch fire in Jefferson County from jumping the South Platte River. More than 280 personnel are assigned to the fire, which has burned 498 acres and is 15 percent contained.
Late Friday, officials announced that some roads in the area, including the Buffalo Creek Township, would be open to residents only beginning at 8 that night.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.

Beagle Dogs can make good pets in Australia if they match your IifestyIe. Beagles are small, energetic hounds with sweet, happy dispositions. Beagles make wonderful family pets. Beagles need to be with people and do not like to be left alone; it is a good idea to have more than one dog if you will be away often. Beagles are great with children but do not do well with cats and other household animals unless they are around them from the time they are puppies. A Beagle needs a decent sized yard to play in and needs lots of exercise. Beagles may wander off easily if not kept on a leash.

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — Under pressure from gun control advocates, Facebook agreed Wednesday to delete posts from users seeking to buy or sell weapons illegally or without a background check.
A similar policy will be applied to Instagram, the company's photo-sharing network, Facebook said. The measures will be put into effect over the next few weeks at the world's largest social network, with 1.3 billion active users.
"We will remove reported posts that explicitly indicate a specific attempt to evade or help others evade the law," the company said in a statement.
The move reflects growing alarm that the Internet is being used to sell banned weapons, evade restrictions on interstate sales, and put guns in the hands of convicted felons, domestic abusers, the mentally ill or others barred under federal law from obtaining firearms. Gun control advocates say Facebook has become a significant marketplace, with thousands of firearms-related posts.
Google Plus and Craigslist already prohibit all gun sales, legal or illegal.
Facebook said that instead of patrolling its network for violators, it will rely on reports from users and police.
The new policy was worked out in an agreement with New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, who has been pressing the company along with Mayors Against Illegal Guns, a group backed by former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, and Moms Demand Action. Moms Demand Action collected more than 230,000 signatures on petitions calling on Facebook to act.
"Responsible social media sites know that it is in no one's interest for their sites to become the 21st-century black market in dangerous and illegal goods that place our families and communities at risk," Schneiderman said.
Chris Cox, executive director of the National Rifle Association's legislative policy arm, portrayed the new policy as a victory for the NRA, saying Bloomberg and his allies tried — and failed — to shut down discussion of gun rights on Facebook.
"NRA members and our supporters will continue to have a platform to exercise their First Amendment rights in support of their Second Amendment freedoms," Cox said.
But Tom King, president of the NRA's New York affiliate, warned that the policy could be used to silence gun organizations on Facebook.
"This is something that could greatly get out of control very quickly," King said.
In crafting the new policy, Facebook had to confront a patchwork of gun laws around the country. New York, for example, has some of the nation's toughest gun laws. It prohibits the sale of weapons such the AR-15 semi-automatic rifle, and it is one of 16 states that require background checks on buyers making private firearm purchases.
Under the new policy, Facebook would allow a user to list an AR-15 as long as it wasn't offered for sale in states where the weapon is illegal.
Also, Facebook will remove any posts in which a gun seller offers to skip a background check, even if such checks aren't required in the seller's state. And it will delete offers to sell guns across state lines without the involvement of a licensed firearms dealer, something required under federal law.
"This is one of many areas where we face a difficult challenge balancing individuals' desire to express themselves on our services and recognizing that this speech may have consequences elsewhere," Facebook said.
The company already has systems in place to remove advertising that is false and deceptive, and it prohibits ads for illegal drugs, tobacco and prescription drugs.
Dan Gross, president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, complained that Facebook didn't go far enough.
"They are talking about a community-based reporting system. Do what these other companies did and shut it down. Shut down the private sales of guns," he said.
There's no way to know how many guns are sold via Facebook, because the transactions are actually completed offline, said John Feinblatt, chairman of Mayors Against Illegal Guns. But such sales have occurred.
In Kentucky, for example, federal authorities in February charged an Ohio man with illegally selling a 9 mm pistol to a Kentucky teenager in a transaction arranged through Facebook.
Feinblatt said that there are "virtual gun shows" online. His group issued a report in December showing 66,000 active ads on a popular gun sales website called Armslist.

How to Advertise and Build Your Brand Using Custom Promotional Insulated Cooler Bags:
Today's cooler bags are a far cry from the bulky, unwieldy chest-style coolers of yesteryear. Modern technology has made it possible to turn just about any kind of a tote bag or lunch bag into a cooler bag. The key is insulation techniques and materials.
Our Logo Imprinted Promotional Insulated Cooler Bags are manufactured with several layers. Each bag has an outer layer and an inner layer of fabric or plastic. Sandwiched between the outer and inner layers is some type of insulated material, such PEVA (a plastic/vinyl cross). Insulators like PEVA have powerful temperature retention qualities. The double lining further prevents temperature exchange between the inside and the outside of your Customized Insulated Cooler Bag.
Any type of custom promotional tote bag can be made insulated this way. Art Promos carries a huge variety of imprinted insulated cooler bags that are great for taking to the beach, keeping your lunch cool or filling with cold drinks that will stay cold for hours.
Our large-sized insulated cooler bags make a great alternative to the traditional promotional logo picnic cooler. They weigh considerably less and are easy to transport and carry.
Promotional Imprinted Cooler Bags are great for storing and transporting:
*Beverages, especially canned drinks
*Lunches/meals for school or work
*Grocery/food items that need to be kept cool on the way home
*Medications that require refrigeration
Your logo imprinted on a Promotional Cooler Bag will increase brand awareness at a fraction of the cost of other types of advertising!

After a week of teasing, slow contractions, Adrian arrived with sudden and surprising alacrity. There is a long story about Emily's induction being pushed back and back and back and the room being unavailable, then available, then unavailable, and finally available for good. The story also introduces Backpacking Dad's delivery room snack regimen, the Irish nurse from Belfast, the room next door to the one Erin was delivered in, and lots of Gordon Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares streaming over the free wifi the hospital offered.
But I won't tell that story. I keep looking for something funny and all I end up with is something amazing.
My son, Adrian Cashel Burns, was born at 8:44pm on May 16th, 2009. He was over a pound heavier than his sister, but scored lower on his Apgars. His feet and hands were less wrinkled rubber than his sister's, but so was his head less hairy. And that's all the comparing I want to do between Adrian and Erin. Erin has been stunning me for two years, and I don't want to water that down; Adrian has been stunning me for two days, and I don't want to treat him as Second and only Second.
He sounds like a kitten when he cries.
He slept in the crook of my arm for part of his first night in the world.
His diapers are so small; his pants are so big.
Erin loves him already. She assures us that he's sleeping, assures him that "It's okay, Adrian," and keeps trying to grab his face so she can look at it.
Emily thinks she screamed during labour. She didn't; not once.
It's all gone tiny hands and tiny toes.
This is my son, Adrian.

The stellar racing performance delivered by these pads has not gone unnoticed - EBC Yellow Stuff Pads are the official brake pad of the Subaru Challenge and for good reason. Unlike most racing materials that require time to warm up, these pads feature EBC's unique break-in surface coating for great performance right out of the box.
Whether your want to race on street or track, your ride's handling will benefit from a set of EBC Yellow Stuff Brake Pads. Backed by 12-month/10,000 warranty.

- 2006-2013 Audi A3

Have been reading Robert Aitkin's The Mind of Clover, which is very good. However, he frequently talks about "Mu", as in, e.g. "... focus only on Mu, and become Mu." (p. 74)
Excellent advice I'm sure, but what's Mu?
It's in the glossary as "No; does not have". That doesn't help me at all.
