it sucks on here but if you go on arcadeimpact.com or arcadestreet.com, you can play the whole game

Im not paying for the game
As a rule of thumb, from now on any demos for a game not free, I am giving a zero, if the game isn't worthy of it's price. It simply is not a good enough game to buy, and I can play THOUSANDS of similar quality games for free, so I'll stick with the free ones.

Are you ready for four more years of Barack Obama and the Party of Treason in charge of the White House? If not, you need to get ready. We are only one step away from that and there is only one thing we can do to stop it.
What is it?
If you are in Illinois tomorrow, vote for Newt Gingrich.
Some folks are going, oh no not again. Some others are asking, "didn't you get the memo. Gingrich cannot win."
You are right. Newt cannot win. He is all but mathematically eliminated in the delegate race. Even Newt knows this.
Newt's strategy is now simple. Deny Romney the nomination.
This needs to be the strategy of the conservative movement. We need to deny Romney the nomination by getting as many conservatives picked as Delegates for the Republican Convention in Tampa this August.
If Romney is nominated, Obama will almost certainly win. Romney can only win in areas where he massively outspends his opponents. He won't be able to outspend Obama. His best-case scenario is close to parity. More than likely Obama will be able to out spend him significantly.
Plus Obama will have an energized base. Conservatives will be out there voting for Romney but we won't be out there doing the boots on the groundwork that has to be done.
Romney is a disaster for the GOP and the sooner we embrace the idea of an open convention that denies Romney the nomination, the better off we are.
Who can come out of the Convention as a nominee? If we get enough conservatives as delegates we have a chance for someone who can excite the base and win. I still believe Newt Gingrich is the best candidate out there, but if he has not been able to close the deal in the primary, the chances of him being chosen by a deadlocked convention are remote.
We need someone who will take Newt's ideas forward. Unlike Romney, Newt is talking about $2.50 a gallon gas. That's something that looks pretty good as we head into the third summer of the Great Obama Depression and gas prices spike towards $5 a gallon. Newt is talking about cutting taxes. Romney is simply talking about managing big government.
Who could we get as a nominee? Certainly not a Bush nor a northeastern liberal like Chris Christie.
Paul Ryan's name has popped up some in the discussions. He would be a good choice or perhaps we could get the convention to go really outside of the box and get someone we are not even thinking of.
The RINOs are screaming about how a brokered convention would be a disaster. A disaster for who? The establishment? Certainly, it would be a disaster for them. For rank and file Republicans and for real Americans, a brokered convention offers the opportunity for a conservative candidate to emerge.
Who is our next Reagan?
It certainly is not liberal Mitt Romney.
We need to start looking for him or her and we need to keep fighting to make certain Mitt Romney does not win the nomination.
The best way we can stop Romney is by getting our friends and family to vote for Newt. If you are in Illinois, help save America. In the GOP primary tomorrow, vote for Newt!
Falling on deaf ears, and people unable to preform simple arithmetic. They do not understand how splitting a pie into more pieces does not give you more pie . Part of the problem is they have fallen for the Romney pushing FOX poll that shows Newt's supporters would go 50/50. If that is true, half of his voters were never worried about electing a real conservative to begin with
What a minute! DeNiro has something to say about the next 4 years. Imagine a conservative or republican saying this.
You want 4 more years of Obama? Vote for Santorum. He feels your pain. He went down in flames against Casey in '06 for the Senate. He was only up against the Harrisburg (PA) machine then. Up against the Chicago machine and it will be a pathetic bloodbath. Few of us have our favorite conservative in the running. That's life in the real world. Also in the real world, Romney is the only one that has a prayer to defeat BO, and THAT is the most critical thing, by far, that absolutely needs to happen. No wishing upon a miracle will do here. If you want to replace Romney in 2016, fine. Just don't blow our one chance to save this country by staying stuck in your year old rhetoric of "anybody but Romney".
We have to rally and support hard for the Rep Nom, whether he is your number one choice or not. Sitting on the sideline complaining how the Nom is not this and not that and is not your perfect candidate is a vote for Obama. One step at a time. Our goal this November is to remove Obama and his administration.
Listen up, people!
We cannot let the issue be the birth certificate. The questions are far too technical for people to understand. We might as well be speaking Swahili when we talk about layers, optical character recognition, and embedded fonts.
We MUST concentrate on the battle that we CAN WIN...the fact that pappy Obama was a Kenyan! No birth certificate can get around that!
Agree, we have a win with the Natural Born Citizen issue. It is a matter of getting a fair hearing. Right now they fear the riots in the inner cities more than they fear us. That needs to change, not sure the best way but it needs to change. I do not fear the riots and I work in downtown Akron.
Appeal to the black man's sense of pride...possibly thru the
Crispus Attucks Tea Party leadership in Houston, TX.
They want to feel represented, not enslaved!
The members of the Crispus Attucks Tea Party (Houston, TX) have a unique opportunity to make history. The current President of the United States is an impostor. Forget the birth certificate and other documents. His father was never a US citizen. This means that it is impossible for Barack Obama to be eligible to run for the presidency.
The media and the Congress ignore the Tea Party because the media can play the race card against us within the fabric of fellow, willing accomplices in the media. The public only sees a bunch of angry white men trying to remove a black man from office. We seemingly can get no traction in our efforts.
The country desperately needs a groundswell of vocal support for congressional investigation and possible impeachment of this president! His socialist agenda will truly be unleashed in a second term if the GOP is not successful in unseating him via the 2012 election.
Sent to Senator Roger Wicker just now:
The inaction of the Senate and House on the President's eligibility makes them complicit in a crime that has allowed a possible illegal alien to hold the presidency! Mr. Obama's father was never a US citizen. Forget the birth certificate (though it IS a forgery). The decision in Minor v. Happersett is not satisfied. Obama is not a natural born US citizen.
The Congress MUST take immediate action to disqualify this person. As I said, your inaction makes you complicit. Make no mistake, Senator. Conservatives will hold you accountable in the next election!
I'll make it simple: keep trashing Romney and you will ensure four more years of Disaster.

Sunday Snoozin'
I allowed mom to take this picture but she had to use the flashy thingy on the box on accounta it is a very dark rainy morning and no light. She tried adjusting the ISO, got yellow looking stuffs and decided "just use the flashy thingy" (she's lazy and didn't want to do other adjustments). If you look carefully you can see my tiny tiny front teefs in that first picture.
I so appreciate Jazz Bones (I think it was) who came to see me and several others on mom's own blog that came to see her and she's not able to respond because they use Google+ and Mommy won't join that. Funny since this is a Google blog spot, that their Google+ won't allow cross commenting.
Have an easy peasy sweet Sunday kitties.

You look extra adorable in those photos, sweet Katie! The PTU term is relatively new to us. We have always called them "cat carriers" and continue to do so. I am sure that Gracie would immediately go and hide if we brought one into the house (we keep them in the garage) without picking her up first. Millie just might eventually go up to it and inspect it.

You are very brave to lie in the PTU, but you look very sweet doing it. We keep well away from out Prisoner Transport Units.
You asked how heavy we are. We haven't been weighed for just over 4 months and we were:
Eric 19.5lbs. Three years ago he weighed 23lbs but he went on a diet and got down to 18.5lbs but has put 1lb back on.
Flynn 14.5lbs and for several years has held his weight between 14 and 15lbs.
Mum is going to weigh us again in the next few days. - August 19, 2012 at 6:48 PM

Guess what Katie? I am only telling you about this, so ::shhhhhh::
I have a little leaky eye that seems like it needs some medicine so the Human is going to try to put ME into the PTU tomorrow and take me to the vet. ME!!! I have not been there since I was just a little guy--like 4 or 6 months or something and I am 8 now. The Human has not been able to get me into a carrier and has not even tried for the last four or five years. But I am much more trusting now and I do let her pick me up, so she is hoping it will work out. The vet is being very loosey-goosey about the appointment time--kinda whenever she can get me there. If it doesn't work, then they are going to give her some names of vets who will come to our house though I would not like that either, and the Human is sure it would be a WHOLE lotta green papers! So if I know you are going, then I will try to be brave too. Stay tuned, Katie!!! The funny thing is, my eye does not really bother me at all--I eat and play and run around like it wasn't even icky!! So I really don't see why she's gotta do this...but whatever. I think being King should count for something--but evidently not. Sigh. - August 20, 2012 at 10:48 PM

A thin steep crack with a few flexible and wafer thin face holds. Tread lightly. A tricky and possibly spooky start protected by a small nut, followed by fun overhanging face climbing and maybe a layback or two leads to a beautiful mantle move from a small left facing corner onto the slopey ledge; though bomber gear is at the climber's hip, a tall climber could hang a draw on the chains above from a jug for the security of a TR on the last moves.
Located on the far left hand side of Band-M are three short vertical cracks. Over Done is the left hand crack. Rappel from chains.
The gear is bomber if you are efficient and strong enough to place it. Bolt anchor and chains. Small to "suasage finger" size cams. A small nut is useful for the first moves off the boulder.
Great Route. Finally Done is classic and understated is great, if a little sandbagged
awesome route, tricky but good gear just where you would need it.
Just so everyone knows the crux flexible flake in the middle of the route hads broken off, the remaining hold is very similar and doesnt really change the character of the route, the hold is just lower and much better bonded to the wall.
light beers will help that paunch!
9+, very nice climb

Steve Jobs Wanted to Make iCar
Steve Jobs was an innovator who totally believed in the world of the future, where everything was fast, easy and stylish. All that for technological products that mind can innovate to make life simple and fast. According to Digital Trends, he wanted to make an iCar, but his plans for it were never materialized due to his death. He knew that he was facing almost an end with the cancer reaching in its final stage and him refusing any medical therapy for it.
Most of the craze that masses today have for gadgets of all kinds is due to Steve Jobs selling the thought that we really do need them to make our lives even better. The "i"s that he did manage to create like the iPod, iTunes, iPhone, iPad, and iMac, were really brilliant ideas taken to the next level with his creative ability. With an idea of an iCar, Steve wanted to make automobile industry go the next level of imagination. Now one wonders what that would have been like.
The Electric cars, which are thought to be the thing of the future, have still not been made a reality, due to the regulations and environmental concerns arising from it. If anyone knew how to make consumerism sound good, it was Steve Jobs. With his innovation behind automobile industry, he would have revolutionized that too. The way Jobs would have designed iCar would have made it look futuristic and something that you ought to have otherwise you would missing out on the era you are living in.

'It Ain't Over 'til It's Over': What to Do NowBy Paul MurphyIn all the crying and wailing going on about Mr. Obama's continued presence in the White House two things seem to be completely missing:
What happened is painfully obvious: 1. The Romney campaign gambled that excluding certain Tea Party players like Sarah Palin would give them enough credibility with the mainstream media for their candidates to get the conservative message out. This failed. What the GOP saw as a sacrifice aimed at reducing the barriers to communication, the major media players involved saw as vindication. As a result, most responded by doubling down on their support for Mr. Obama -- while millions of excluded Tea Party supporters were left unable to commit emotionally to the Romney campaign. 2. The Romney campaign bought into the notion that Mr. Obama is somehow likeable and that personal attacks on his credibility, history, associates, and loyalties would therefore rebound against their candidate. It is not clear whether that was right or wrong, but the strategy certainly failed, because the GOP establishment's refusal to go after Mr. Obama personally allowed the Democrats and their JournoList fellow travelers to define the agenda for public policy discussions. As a result, they were able to convince many Americans that the real differences between the parties on issues of critical national importance, including states' rights, personal freedoms, the rule of law, and the role of government in the economy, are quite minor. They then rejoiced in an avalanche of exaggeration with respect to differing views on Christian religious practice, gay marriage, and a woman's right to kill her children. 3. For at least the last decade, the GOP in general, and most recently the Romney campaign in particular, has ignored the simple reality that people who dedicate their lives to achieving left-wing agendas through politics willingly cheat, whereas people who treat politics as merely the expression of earned values through service tend not to. "The dead vote Democrat" -- it's a joke, but it's also true. Had the dead, the felons, the non-citizens, and those who didn't show up at the polls not voted in Ohio and Florida this time around, Romney would have won both states and would be working on his inauguration speech right now. Nationally Obama won by less than 2% -- by less than 100,000 votes in Ohio and less than 40,000 in Florida. So that's what happened: the Romney people had a very decent candidate, a principled plan, and good discipline -- but the plan didn't work. The other side fully exploited self-imposed weaknesses in campaign messaging...and let's not forget that Democrats cheat. So we are where we are. Now what? I want to suggest three inter-locking strategies: short-, middle-, and somewhat longer-term. In the short term, the GOP must fight the count. Romney should never have conceded, and he must now find a reason to "unconcede." It's alarming advice to give the GOP, but in this the party must behave as the Democrats do. Try to imagine, for example, how the Obama campaign would have reacted if the numbers in Florida were reversed; if Scot Brown seemed guilty of practicing law without a license and won anyway; if a half-dozen major precincts responsible for electing Republicans claimed turnouts of 99% or more; if the Romney campaign had rather obviously both solicited and accepted foreign money. I know we'd all like to be better than that -- but we're not going to save Democratic voters from their leaders without breaking through the social and political barriers that leadership have put in place to protect their positions. Ask your neighbors, your family members, anyone who votes Democrat but isn't fanatical about it: do they want $8 gas? Thirty million unemployed Americans? Dysfunction in health care and the military? Brownouts and power rationing? More illegals? Further corruption in the Department of Justice? Most will say no, but they voted for people whose policies have been shown to lead to these outcomes and worse...so why? Because we thought we're better than that -- and, in acting on that belief, abandoned more than half of all Americans to people who treat a lie as just another tool, who have no shame and no loyalties beyond themselves. So we have to do it -- and we start by denying Obama any aura of legitimacy. We fight the count, we impeach on Libya, we go after him personally and in every possible way. In the middle-term, the GOP should turn to its financial backers -- and those backers should move to take over major media players. There's real money to be made playing the news game fairly -- and most of the major liberal media are financially weak, with many of their strongest people sidelined for harboring inappropriate political views. Gannet, Time Warner, and McClatchy are all horrifically unbalanced but great properties nevertheless. Republicans should buy these -- and run them as real news and entertainment businesses, not as propaganda outlets. What's killing the traditional media isn't technology or the market; it's their absolute focus on supporting only the low-information, solidly Democrat voter. Remove that limitation, and the GOP gets a level playing field, the American public gets information from both sides, and the new owners get to make money the old-fashioned way: by refocusing undervalued assets on the business, not somebody else's political goals. In the longer term, the electoral integrity problem must be addressed -- with a clean, trusted system on its way in by 2014 and solidly in place by 2016. The electoral system, from registration to reporting, is politically complex but technically rather simple: get a list of eligible voters, match those who show up to vote with the right ballots, collect their votes, and report totals. Nothing to it... Setting aside the practicality of getting it done, the solution is to drop voter registration entirely in favor of listing every adult citizen of every state as eligible to vote, abandon absentee and early voting entirely, and enable electronic voting from whereever the voter is, in the country or around the world, on election day. The technology and management controls needed for this have been around for a decade -- and using them could reduce the public costs of elections by a factor or ten or more -- but the getting it done bit, that's the hard part. This spring, there will be thirty or more Republican governors in office, and because vote management is fundamentally a local rights issue, the process has to start with them. What's needed is a states' rights partnership that will design and administer one set of rules across the electoral landscape. There is good reason to believe that when the other twenty or so states join the partnership, all the recounts, mistrust, and lawsuits we see now will, along with federal intervention and its attendant costs, just -- poof -- disappear from the electoral landscape. Paul Murphy is the pseudonym of a retired IT consultant now living in beautiful Lethbridge, Alberta. |

He has also been selected out of more than 50 applicants/projects who applied for this year's Spoken Word and Poetry Festival to take place in Paris, France. He wants to combine indigenous instruments from Ghana and indigenous European instruments.
He will also closely look at the various resemblance in local instruments and foreign instruments like Goje and Violin, Xylophone and Piano, Kologo and their Mandolin 'Guitar'.
He is excited about the project because it represents both his ancestral (Ashanti and Gypsy) backgrounds. The project which takes place at Cité des Arts near Paris, France will take him away from August 1 to November 1.
Wanlov Kubolor and his partner M3nsa, who together make up the FOKN Bois revealed that they are currently recording 'FOKN with you' an album they say is aimed at helping them "lose all our fans; we don't even want one more fan in the world.
We have songs like; Sexing Islamic girls, Jesus is coming, Laughing at cripples, Thank God we are not Nigerians and many others. All these songs are going to help us lose our fans because if you remove the fans then you can now bring in air-condition."
The FOKN with you album he said, reveals the dark side of the FOKN Bois.

Osso Bucco: The Perfect Dinner Party Dish
by Michelle Karam
Sometimes I like to remind my husband that I can cook more than just the simple dinner that I make for the kids. I mean, I'm pretty sure that when the kids come to ask me "Mom! What's for dinner?" if I say "Osso Bucco," then I can say with certainty they're going to go "eeeewww!!!" and "yuckkkk!!!" But if my husband asks me what's for dinner and I say "Osso Bucco," I can say with certainty he's gonna be pretty happy. It's one of his favorite dishes!
It's one of those things that you usually only see in Italian restaurants as a special on a Friday or Saturday night, and that's for good reason. It takes time and some effort to make... but let me just say that when done the right way- you're gonna have some happy customers (i.e. your family) with smiles on their faces!
This is also the perfect dish to try if you're having friends over for a dinner party and you're really looking to impress them! It's full of flavor. It's hearty. Its absolutely DIVINO! as the Italiano's would say. It's an old school dish that's delish!
Osso Bucco
- 2-1/2 to 3 pounds veal shanks (4 to 6 pieces, 2-3 inches thick)
- 2-3 small diced carrots
- 3 small diced celery stalks
- 1 medium onion, diced small
- 4 cloves finely chopped garlic
- 3-4 sprigs fresh thyme
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 1-2 cups chicken
- 1 can diced plum tomatoes
- 2 tbs. tomato paste
- Flour for dusting the meat before browning
- Salt and pepper
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/2 tsp. chili pepper flakes
Preheat your oven to 350°F.
Heat a dutch oven or large oven safe pan on the stove top over medium heat. Add your vegetables and garlic with 1/2 of your oil. Reserve the other half. Cook down for about 5 minutes until the carrots are tender and the onions are translucent. Transfer to your oven safe pan.
Season the veal shanks with salt & pepper. Dredge the shanks in some flour (make sure you season your flour with salt and pepper as well) and shake off any excess flour.
Turn up the heat to medium high heat and add remaining olive oil. Brown shanks on either side.... should take about 5-7 minutes per side. Place shanks on top of veggies that you have already sauteed.
In the same pan you've cooked in- it's time to de-glaze. That's the fancy word for getting all the flavor and goodness off of the bottom of the pan! Take your white wine and pour it into the pan. Allow it to bubble and scrape up all the goodie bits off the bottom.
Add the chicken stock, thyme tomato paste and tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Pour over the browned veal shanks and sprinkle the chili flakes on top (optional).
Cover tightly with aluminum foil and cook for 2 hours. Checking half way through to make sure that there is enough liquid in there.
This step is completely optional... I happen to do it this way though - I remove the shanks very carefully- they will be so tender they will fall off the bone. I set aside and I take the remaining liquid and stew veggies and I put them in a blender or use my hand blender to emulsify everything. I then put the shanks back in and cover it with the puree.
Serve with polenta or risotto.

By Stacey Taylor
Congratulations to our grand prize winner LAINE HOUSTON from San Antonio. Here's what Laine will have the privilege to experience at the upcoming Music As A Weapon show:
*Help us cover the concert all day.
*Be at all KISS artist interviews and even ask a member of both Disturbed and Korn an interview question.
*Hang out in the KISS compound with the KISS staff
*VIP seats at the show
Here are his winning questions for KORN:
1. What makes a guy from Bakersfield California, who's Dad played keyboards for Buck Owens and Frank Zappa, decide to learn how to play the bagpipes?
2. When people start playing music at an early age, it seems to be mostly about escape and self discovery. There is a certain amount of lonesome anonymity to it that makes it comfortable as an outlet for shy kids. Did you guys feel that way or did you always want to be big rock stars? How do you maintain positive creative energy now that you are so popular that music as an escape is nearly impossible? Now that the comfortable space of creating music anonymously has turned to a world stage... is it harder to create something that really speaks for you.
3. What would you say is the best way to use music as a weapon? Do you think that anyone still uses music as a weapon for a rock revolution? Is this tour a call to arms for musicians to once again be more involved in changing the world?
There were also 25 runners-up (who had GREAT questions as well) that will receive free tickets to the Music As A Weapon show.
They earned it! Congrats to all!
Those winners include:
Jay Wilson
Anthony Valadez
Michelle Lopez
Rene Rendon

Today's Friday Freakout is all about respect, love and dignity – and masturbation!
First off, this episode is dedicated to legendary gay rights activist Frank Kameny. Frank died of natural causes this past Tuesday, ironically on National Coming Out Day. He fought so I could be here right at this moment, writing this blog post to distribute to our gay audience. He made this happen, and I think of him often.
The meat of this week's Freakout is concerned with all the crazy things that can happen to gays: a controversial video of an alleged gay man being burned, Tracy Morgan's complete lack of empathy – or memory – for his hurtful words, the threat of gay ninjas, and the realities of straight men becoming gay through masturbation.
Feast your eyes and ears on this, and let me know in the comments: WHAT STORIES DID YOU FREAKOUT ABOUT THIS WEEK?

Benghazi rebels
The rebels of the east consider themselves the founding fathers of the revolution. Within a week of their uprising in Benghazi, which started on February 17, they had formed the first of a series of organising committees, which eventually morphed into the National Transitional Council. The torch-bearers were mainly middle-class, educated members of the Benghazi establishment. But jostling for power in the new authority soon threatened solidarity. The military leadership appeared particularly disorganised, unable to defend Benghazi as Gaddafi's forces advanced, and unable to hold a position beyond Brega, 240 kilometres south, despite months of NATO bombing.
Misrata rebels
They have fought the toughest and longest engagements of the war. Gaddafi's siege of Misrata was brutal. Their advances west towards Tripoli were hard. And, until recent days, they did not get far. The central rebels have now taken the town of Zlitan and are about 130 kilometres east of Tripoli, where they will lay a claim to having broken the siege of the bitterly contested Gaddafi heartland.
Western rebels
They see themselves as the heroes of the campaign, having burst into Tripoli late Sunday. They hail from the western mountains, where they were isolated and besieged by Gaddafi's forces for more than five months. NATO played a decisive role in freeing them from the blockade, but the group, of ethnic Berbers and Arabs, was able to do what their rivals couldn't: break Gaddafi's supply lines to Algeria and Tunisia. When they surged into Tripoli they won bragging rights they will expect to translate into a lead role.

CORPUS CHRISTI - Officers called to help a man retrieve belongings from an apartment on Savage Lane yesterday arrested a wanted man who tried to sneak away.
According to police, officers were allowed into the apartment and immediately noticed the smell of marijuana. Randall McBurnett was reportedly sitting on the couch when they showed up.
The guy who wanted his stuff back went back outside with officers as they checked to see if there were ant warrants out for McBurnett's arrest. As that was happening, McBurnett left using a back door.
Police were able to quickly find him hiding behind a parked vehicle along Interstate 37. Police did not say why McBurnett was wanted.

text: International organisations often carry out their tasks in an incomplete legal environment and have to find ad hoc solutions to legal problems. In the case of the EPO, the European Convention on Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (ECHR) could be referred to as a way of filling the procedural gaps in the EPC. The main part of this study compares the practice of the EPO boards of appeal with the principles laid down in Article 6 ECHR with a view to assessing the extent to which the boards have succeeded in meeting ECHR standards in their case law. Other chapters in the study address the absence of a comprehensive legal environment for international organisations, the organisation of the boards of appeal, the right of access to them, the principle of a fair trial and the future of patenting in Europe.

Hello, Don.
Yes, it is quiet on the list. Dale and I had a wonderfully quiet morning at
home, then we went to some friends' house for their annual Open House for
Friends and Family for the afternoon into the evening. We had not spent
any time with them in about a year, so it was good to go there and see every
My husband gave me a chime clock that plays a Christmas song every hour,
except during the night for an 8-hour period. Then I also received my
rooster wine bottle holder. We had seen it in one of the stores earlier in
the year and I loved it. It reminds me of the cartoon where the chick is
laying on his back, feet up, not moving, except for his eyes and the dad
rooster is saying, "I say, Boy! Boy? What are you doing there, Boy!?" and
the chick whispers, "Shhhhhh................. chicken hawk!" He fits in
fine with the rest of the chicks and roosters we have. Last year I gave
Dale a Russian-made, large, carved out wooden egg holding a hen and eggs.
Many years before that, I purchased a Russian-made chicken that comes apart
like a Matryoshka (Matrushka) doll that has eggs inside with chicks inside
the eggs. I have quite a collection of Russian toys, Matryoshkas, and
hand-painted eggs. I love the artwork.
Well, I must run. I am happy to hear you and your family had a nice
Christmas together. I'll bet your poodle had the best Christmas ever,
too!!! He gets to play with Dad and the new toys. I'll bet it is quite
funny to watch. Hmmmm..... I need something like that to entertain the
cats...... LOL

Boy, it sure is quiet on our list. I trust that everybody had a wonderful
Christmas. We had a good time with most of our family being here for the
day. My son-in-law gave me a small radio controlled helicopter and we have
been having fun with it. Our little poodle likes to chase it and bark at it.
When I have it sitting on the floor he tries to bite the rotors, but then
backs up and barks. When I fly it he chases it unless it gets behind him,
then he tries to get away from it.

I think right now Korean food is my favorite of ethnic foods. I love the variety. The flavors. The below recipe reminded me of the Korilla food truck we have in NYC. Though it is a bit more affordable than most Korean restaurants they are never near my office. So I was especially glad to find the recipe. And my crockpot was able to do most of the work. It was a delicious meal.

~5 lbs beef short ribs (can also use back ribs)
1 bottle (10 oz) low sodium soy sauce
1 cup packed brown sugar
6 cloves garlic, minced
4 Tbsp ginger, grated
6 Tbsp rice vinegar
2 Tbsp dark sesame oil
2 Tbsp vegetable or olive oil
2 Tbsp sriracha
1 cup water (optional)
For the Cucumber Slaw:
1 cucumber (seedless recommended)
Thinly sliced red onion rounds
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp rice vinegar
crushed red pepper flakes to taste
For the tacos:
16 small wheat tortillas
bean sprouts
Greek yogurt (or sour cream)
To make the cucumber slaw, slice the cucumber very thinly and sprinkle with salt. Place in a colander and let sit for up to an hour over a bowl or in the sink.
Shake additional water from the colander or pat with paper towels.
Transfer to a bowl and toss with red onions, rice vinegar, and red pepper flakes. Refrigerate until ready to use (leftovers get less and less crunchy as they sit but it can be made ahead, just pour off any accumulated liquid and toss with an additional 1-2 tsp vinegar to taste, if necessary).
To make the Korean beef for the tacos, spray your slow cooker crock with non-stick cooking spray and add the ribs.
Whisk soy sauce, sugar, and vinegar with the garlic, ginger, sriracha, and oils.
Pour over the ribs in the crockpot. (I thought the liquid level looked a little low so I added ~ 1 1/2 cups of water.)
Cook on low for 8 hours.
(optional) Remove 1 1/2 cups of the cooking liquid and skim the fat from the top. Pour the liquid into a small sauce pan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer while separating the meat from the bones. Reduce the liquid by about half and pour over the shredded meat.
To assemble, serve the shredded meat on warmed tortillas topped a spoon of cucumber slaw, cilantro, bean sprouts, sriracha and a dollop of yogurt.

The Spanish Bow, Andromeda Romano-Lax, Harcourt Inc, 2007, 547 pp
This first novel came in as an Advance Reader Copy. I liked it so much I convinced the owner to order it for the store.
The main character is Spanish, born in the early 1900s near Barcelona. Though he is poor, he grows up to be a famous cello virtuoso. As the novel follows his life, you also get a history of Spain in the first half of the 20th century. I learned the most about that country that I have ever learned and added to what I knew from For Whom the Bell Tolls, Ernest Hemingway and from one of the Lanny Budd books by Upton Sinclair.
The cellist is loosely based on Pablo Casals though it is completely fiction. He has a musical partner, a pianist, who comes in and out of his life. I loved the way the author showed this relationship: they were in complete accord whenever they were playing music but were so different as personalities and politically that their association was often painful and torturous. Isn't that just the way it is with musicians?
The story also explores the question of what use is art in times of war and political upheaval. The power of music to uplift people is beautifully evoked and the power of war to break an artist's spirit is horrifically shown.
Not a page turner and a bit pedantic in writing style but a fine story not often told. I cannot dislike a book about musicians.
