It has been interesting to watch the craze out in the market regarding milk substitutes. Even quick stores are carrying nut, rice, and soy milks. They are pasteurized of course but none the less everyone is becoming more aware of milk intolerance. Making your own nut milks, well shoot, there just isn't anything out on the market that comes close in flavor. The beauty in making your own is that you can control the sweetness (if even desired) or the consistency. For instance my husband likes his nut milk a take creamier than milk, almost like a 1/2 & 1/2 consistency. We like to slightly sweeten ours as well but you don't have to.
A friend of ours is spending the next few days with us who is gluten intolerant. So this morning I offered him a bowl of gluten-free cereal with some fresh made nut milk. He immediately said yes but as I was gathering up the dishes, etc, he politely asked if we had regular milk. My husband said yes but asked if he would like to try a swig of the nut milk just to try it. He agreed and said, "Oh man, I will have that!"
When you make your nut milks, remember to never throw away the pulp. The pulp is wonderful for making raw crackers.
This is wonderful to use in cereals, shakes, smoothies…all sorts of things!
NUT PULP – Keep the pulp left over!!! This is amazing stuff to make crackers, croutons, and breads out of! If you can't use it right away (stays good for about 3 days in the fridge) measure and freeze until it's needed.
Get creative!
Brazil nuts are a great source of selenium. They have about 2500 times the amount of selenium than any other nut. Selenium is a powerful antioxidant that helps protect against disease. Selenium also slows down the aging process and boosts the immune system!
Pecans are a good source of fiber and contain iron, calcium, vitamins A, B, and C, potassium, and phosphorous.
Macadamia nuts are high in fiber, taste great, and have no cholesterol. They also have a very high proportion of monounsaturated fats (which are the good fats!).
I followed the link for coconut milk from your Lemon Vanilla Frosting recipe, but I don't see it here. I would love to try it! You have a wonderful website.
[...] 2 cups almond pulp [...]
also followed the coconut link – and still got this page even though you did tell someone in a post above that it is fixed ;-)
Juicy hugs
How much of the almond do you really use? I wonder how to determinethe nutritional content of homemade nut milk as opposed to Almond Breeze.
I really like your mention on consistency here. In making my nut-milks, that's what I found the most daunting. In following previous examples of other "milk makers" they said use 1 cup almonds to three cups of water. Another one said use 1/2 cups of almonds to 5 cups of water (yikes!!!).
The consistency that works for me and my husband is close to yours: 1 cup of almonds to 2 cups of water ( I know you use 1 1/2 cups). He likes the sweetened vanilla milk as opposed to the straight plain.
Additionally, I used to throw away the pulp until I knew better.
do you have a recipe on how to make rice milk?
i make rice milk all the time, and it's just as simple as making almond milk. in the evening i put half a cup whole rice to soak in 4 cups water (if you want it cremier you put more rice). in the morning i put it in the mixer, drain and drink (you can add dates or palm sugar or stevia). if i'm not in a 100% raw fase, i use the "rice pulp" to make burgers: adding some chopped veggies and just a little bit of buckweat flour or chickpeas flour.
hope you enjoy
Hi Amie Sue,
I just made a gallon of almond nut milk. First batch with 6 dates, and made the second batch without the dates but added a dash of pink salt.
We LOVE the taste of fresh nut milk! I don't know why I haven't tried this earlier.
When you use the nut pulp in your baking recipes, do you dehydrate them first or do you use the wet pulp?
Oh by the way, i pulled out the maple pumpkin kale chips from the dehydrator this morning, and it is delicious! I bagged them in vacummed sealed ziploc bag so that i can mail them to my mother-in-law tomorrow :-)
Thanks for the great tips on the nut pulp usage and storage.
I took out the kale chips from the dehydrator when it was a bit chewy so when they were vacuumed sealed, they would not get crumbly and become powder when the kale chip bag gets to it's destination. I will tell my mother-in- law to put the kale chips in her oven a little bit if she wants crispier kale chips. I put the kale chip bag in the freezer until I am ready to send it in the mail. Luckily, she lives only 2 hrs away so she will receive it the next day I send it to her.
It's been a long weekend of cleaning the kitchen when all the raw snack goodies were finally done. Having a brand new dish washer helps :-)
Have a good Monday!
You showed a web site to order a press (I believe it was a cheese press) to make nut milk. I looked under nut milk and can not seem to find where you put it. Your site is exceptional! Talk about motivation to try everything. Raw has never been so delicious and your pics are perfect. Better than any cookbook. Thank you so much!
Just made a batch and I like it much better than the commercial stuff for adding to my tea. The commercial stuff is "slippery" and not very good for tea and coffee, just for cereal.
I used a cheese cloth and burst it trying to squeeze the liquid out, so I am going to invest in an actual nut milk bag.
The almond meal will be used up in the near future too :)
Thanks again!
I don't understand how to get almond pulp? I wanted to try your cranberry pupkin bread it looks so good, just not sure about the pulp.
This might sound like a stupid question, lol, but do you use the water you soaked the nuts in to make the milk?
Thank you!
Actually, lol, I made nut milk the other day and I did drain the water and use fresh for the blending process but then when I put more nuts in soak tonight, I wondered if I should have used the water and hence my question. Thanks for clearing that up.
Hi Amie Sue
I have a question for you. When I soak the almonds to make almond milk, it says drain and rinse but do I use the liquid I soaked the almond in to make the milk in the blender ? or do I use fresh water to make the milk with in the blender ? Thank you .
I recieved my commercial dehydrator on Saturday, I haven't taken it out of the box yet. It has 24 racks I can't wait to try your recipes.
Happy and Healthy New Year to you and your family .
Thank you for your awesome recipes. I so can't wait to make fruit leathers . Carol :0)
Sure you can ask. My husband found it for me for Christmas, I wanted the smaller one and he said "go big or go home " and he got me the big one. It was out of stock so I didn't get it until a few days ago .
It was purchased at Cabelas , it is a commercial dehydrator.
The item # is IK515819. If anyone should have this item it should be you with all the dehydrating that you do . Thank you for your help with the almond milk. I'll be sure to let you know how it comes out. Carol :0)
Amie Sue
I just tried punching the item # in for the dehydrator and you can't see a picture of it , only the small one. The best thing to do is punch in commercial dehydrator in the search bar . You will then see a small dehydrator, click on it then you can click on either picture of the bog one or the small one . It was on sale when we ordered it , we got it for
$379.00. Have a great day :0) Carol
Hi Amie Sue
My batch of almond milk was Fantastic. The mush/pulp was very good too. I tasted it before putting it in the freezer but it was tempting to just eat it right then and there with a spoon.
I poured myself a glass over ice and told my son he had to taste it, that it was the best almond milk he had ever had, well he tasted it and tasted it a second time and asked "was this glass for me?" The sad part was I only made 4 cups. Thank you so much for sharing your treasures with everyone . Carol :0)
I'm ready to try nut milk….dehydrater, the whole nine yards, my daughter is VEGAN and has turned me on to amazing food alternatives.
Aime: I made your almond milk yesterday and it is wonderful. I'll never buy pre-made organic again. I used 2 cups of water, 1 tsp. of liquid vanilla, and 1 date. Oh, it is heavily rich and thick. I found myself getting up in the middle of the night just to have a bit more. Do you ever use the dry vanilla as I have tons of it right now? If you don't use it in the almond milk what is your suggestion?
Is it possible to make the almond nut milk after you have already soaked and dehydrated the almonds?
Can you use wet almond meal flour for the almond pulp in your recipes if you don't have the raw almonds for the milk process. Thank you Pat
[...] 2 cups almond milk [...]
This information is golden. Thanks Having visual images is so very helpful to me. I have a question about the lovely glass jars used to store the milk. Where can I but them. Also, can this milk be frozen?
Hi amie sue… I just love your site..it truly "rawks"! :) I visit almost everyday and keep learning. I am newly raw, so my dehydrator will be here this week! Can't wait…
My question is about almond milk. I recently made some almond milk that spoiled withinn 48 hours. I soaked the almonds and then left them in the frig, covered for a day before I made the milk. Could that be the reason it soured? How long does almond milk normally last? I usually use what I make within 24 hours. Thanks BJ
[...] 1 1/2 cup almond milk [...]
[...] 1 1/2 ceasca lapte de migdale [...]
hi i was wondering if these types of nut milks go really well with coffee and teas? i want to find an alternative thats not under the gmo label and thought bout making my own.
HI Amie-Sue,
I found your website the other day while I was doing a search on raw foods on the internet.
I have to commend you on how wonderful your site is and all the amazing recipes and information/tips you offer. While I'm still trying to soak up everything and find a recipe to try, I have a silly question about that adorable milk glass jar/bottle you have up there (second photo from the top) – I love that jar and want to buy it. Do you know who sells it? I looked in your store, but it was not available. Thanks, I will appreciate your input!

On the -- -- you don't come like hello everybody.
Busy day politically we're all still talking about the sequester.
But some very interesting developments coming out of the white hats on cybercrime as well we've been talking about this for a long time -- -- show.
We were talking yesterday without chief intelligence correspondent Catherine Herridge.
About how the Chinese army is suspected all of major attacks big surprise.
Back and this new report abandon those attacks now the White House it appears wants to.
Take some action or will -- -- managed to anything will get into that.
In a moment but first of all we have the brilliant ball Bryce here managing partner tangent capital and they equally brilliant -- -- -- my -- without -- -- -- -- -- So this morning I'm smarter than I ever got to get -- and I -- buddies rather than a fifth grader Eric of course is associate publisher -- of social media.
Max good to see above stated -- first of all I.
I was -- involved and I'd I've been wanting to -- -- this I was reading have couple of pieces recently saying that this whole sequester thing you hate.
Big deal let it happen it doesn't really matter it won't affect anything that much I think certain officials -- the Pentagon might disagree but what will it actually do with this 85 billion dollars in cuts.
Is traded well you.
We've talked before about the fiscal cliff reliving a fiscal wheelchair -- Right right and in India in many ways this is the same thing because.
There's the reality is if it it -- Comes to pass you can undo it at any time it's it's not as though.
This is I don't think that you're gonna see this sequestered -- -- and then nobody's ever gonna do anything about replacing some that pentagon spending right or replacing -- Today is not gonna happen and so in that sense I think it's -- aunt because it's really just -- a landmark.
On -- a negotiation journey not if now the reality is that the -- cuts big -- and and they stayed in it would have a negative impact on the economy.
To some extent you're gonna slow GDP growth they're gonna have higher levels of unemployment.
The military's gonna have to make some significant adjustments but honestly I don't think it's the end of the world even if they kick in and they stick there.
The total number number that we're talking about is still -- spit in the bucket.
Compared to the -- federal deficit well aren't you.
Well one yet to spit bucket which means it's really not solving the problem and it's intended to solve want to do is I think we all now we can say we're guessing but we actually know.
Debt even if it happens.
It will somehow be reversed somehow so that's my look at as big at.
That it but there.
The whole issue though is is that this spit in the bucket he's not gonna solve the problem let's solve the problem instead of having constant.
All you don't I don't get that -- we -- you don't -- not going to solve the problem everybody's playing politics with the following -- what with we're not gonna solve the problem we're gonna keep kicking the can down the -- we've been doing it for years and -- it's time that we stop doing that sooner or later we won't be able to do -- We have not gonna do down this -- we've all -- you know look like and it has any of the Politico -- what I.
Pretty confident that we're not gonna do it -- -- Until there is a truly major crisis because it's only -- -- crisis point and people take these things seriously nobody -- it would bring about that crisis a significant rise in world interest rates which fool how they.
Impact on our net borrowing costs on an annual basis.
When you're you're gonna take up a hole that's already enormous.
And make enjoying enormous because the interest rate in the federal debt will go up and the amount of money that we have to spend just to cover interest payments every year it's like the minimum on your credit -- the likelihood of that happening and oh what I look at global rise in interest rates -- it's very hot it's finally I'm just very hot it it's kind of -- happen it has to happen.
And people don't quite what that means when we're gonna -- an elevated amount of interest that that's seriously.
You know that's significant I mean it's it's exactly the same -- -- -- before 5% mortgage on your house and they -- have a 10% mortgage how does that how does that.
Do for your monthly cash flow guys and they've probably -- -- -- your personal credit card your personal credit card just not five or 6% how do you.
Personally feel about your credit card interest going up that -- that -- you can eat meat and he's gonna take a lot longer to pay back and so is everybody is everybody in Washington.
Simply gambling -- future is here for the sake of politics.
They -- gambling with our futures.
-- probably because they don't really want to believe this is going to happen where did they don't think it's much easier to believe that the future is going to be like the president.
And everything is going to be more or less okay and it connecting -- people continue to believe that until the day when it's not OK anymore.
And that day is coming I mean -- global interest rates.
Will start to rise and and then we're going to have a huge problem in this country because we haven't adequately address these problems yet I I -- this is indeed.
Do you think the politicians are letting us down on both sides here.
Yeah -- You know we we are you know the sky is falling actually it is it is actually -- There's a lot of issues that need to be addressed today.
That we don't have the luxury of time to wait to solve but we keep.
Creating what we -- is a -- luxury of time that we don't have.
On a lot of issues and are a big -- right seen here -- says wait to see this as a sequestration means nothing.
Sounds like something Obama and congress would do to get us talking about anything other than what they -- really.
Doing which I think that ball back is thank you for that big -- I'm not sure whether it's as a but it always good to get your comments -- live -- -- working here right now so I'm not going to be getting them printed off and I'll read as many as I can.
And we'll try to get my computer -- soak and wet.
Ball wet do we go win this wall gig in -- and it we just gonna get another stopgap measure right now.
And would then how much longer than do we have.
-- these crises that you say good so I don't know why tell us.
What they're really really fears -- just going to be in this continuing.
And mode of kicking -- down the road report much kicking it down there were three or four months can handle the -- and and we just getting to this perpetual cycle of but no permanent answers to anything which we seem to be an already and that's the easiest thing for politicians to do -- in which we all know they like to do the easiest thing it has the least political risk they'd like to do things who believe political risk.
You know you you pray -- means miracles do happen where it's possible.
That the ruling will be a grand bargain which will have significant.
Revenue increases and significant expenditure cuts and -- -- you know I've said it will issue a million times you how.
-- -- have both of those things we have to have entitlement reform.
And we have to have higher revenues in just must have -- isn't this the best time Paulson.
-- -- actually get something done because we I've not quite two -- -- almost two years away from the mid term elections well anything is ever gonna get done.
This is surely the time to do it because they don't have to worry about an election right now in theory but probably what I think -- will happen is.
Nothing will happen -- It's coming up on the mid term elections and everybody's -- only got -- -- we can't keep talking about the same things and -- a lot of things that we eat all of us -- do you know at any sort of political talk just talk about.
We say I'm really talking about this again and again and again and again because.
What we're not resolving the problem I don't.
I don't think anything's gonna happen until we get close to them from the life is as opposed to yell -- -- -- -- right now he got a president who is not going to be running for reelection this is it for him.
You got people who just got into office now's the time to do something not when you're trying to get you know -- in the mid term elections the midterm elections all they become is what the country thinks about the job they're doing in Washington know what they think and every mid term election if you're doing a lousy job doesn't matter the administration must.
So -- ball the the right is blaming a left the left the blaming it he's blaming the right you're a guy who generally.
Sort of goes down them -- fairly moderate middle line.
And you also have a a good day at a great economic brain who's really to blame.
Oh my gosh Jonathan I mean I hate to say this it is -- -- -- So maybe can be very reverently I'd I don't like to be handed -- I'd like to give you you know one -- and when -- honest to god they are both self.
Totally to blame here in there they're both sides are so.
Fundamentally economically irrational the last election was about once -- promising more social benefits and the other side promising even lower taxes so they're both arguing for a bigger deficit.
-- so in that case how can you say one side is to -- they're both equally to blame and it's infuriating well fundamentally economically irrational I'm running it down yes they are.
-- -- -- Well all third and I don't I'm voting for that somebody that is the problem is is that.
You know I mean five years ago -- staunchly defended the left on this network for a long time yeah I'd sure.
Number well -- nice to have some real unfortunately both come a little -- but it.
It what's sad to me big Obama supporter is is that.
He went to Washington talking about everybody all those Smart brain is getting in the same room and figuring something out and it not be such a polarized environment.
Yet in our lifetime it is the most polarized environment ever and that talent trees everybody's voting.
Right or anybody's voting -- they're sticking the party lines and nobody southern province right edge and -- that's absolutely true and there is no.
There's no sign that we getting out of that cycle if anything it's becoming --

The current economic downturn is having an impact on everyone and Caerphilly county borough is keen to show that it too is tightening its belt and reducing unnecessary spending.
The Big Cheese Festival takes place in Caerphilly next week and in past years the council has entertained VIPs and event sponsors at a special reception held on the opening evening.
This year, as part of ongoing efforts to reduce spending, council officials have agreed to hold a special 'credit crunch supper' consisting of soup, bread and cheese for the sponsors. They will also be asked to sing for their supper and raise funds for the Mayor's Charity Appeal along with the local Youth Forum who are taking part in the Great Cheese Race.
However, these spending cuts will not affect plans to give 500 children with special needs from across the county borough a special treat. They will still be given a special VIP afternoon of free rides on the huge funfair as in previous years, with support from Lindsay Ford Solicitors.
Council leader, Cllr Lindsay Whittle, said, "We normally host a reception for the sponsors on the opening evening as a thank you for their valued support, but this year we feel we should hold a more modest function in light of the current economic climate.
We are delighted that Lindsay Ford Solicitors are sponsoring 500 special needs children to an afternoon of fun at the Big Cheese. I and the Mayor will be thrilled to join the children and their families in the afternoon while they have a fantastic time."
This year's Big Cheese has once again attracted sponsorship from the private sector together with grants from Europe and the Assembly.
For further information, please visit the Big Cheese website.

Six people were hospitalized after a boat exploded at a Maryland marina, an official with the Anne Arundel County Fire Department said Monday.
Six children, all of whom are 13 or younger, were injured, Lt. Jack Bell said.
"We saw that the dad was actually picking kids up and throwing them into the water, and people were just frantically scrambling to get off the boat," Care Corradin told CNN affiliate WJZ.
Corradin said the people from the boat began to swim back to the dock.
"And there was a ton of smoke just billowing out the back, and the dad went back in and picked up all the life vests and he was throwing the life vests at the kids and the people in the water," Corradin said.
Sgt. Brian Albert of the Maryland Natural Resources Police, which is leading the accident investigation, said two of the children were transported to the Johns Hopkins burn center. No one on the boat suffered life-threatening injuries, he said.
Bell said the boat got gas at the marina, and the 32-foot vessel, with nine people aboard, stalled when it left the dock just after noon. The blast happened when the captain tried to refire the engines.
The cause of the explosion at the Oak Grove Marina near Edgewater, Maryland, is unknown.
The marina is about 30 minutes east of Washington on the South River.

By now, I think most of us are aware of the benefits of the high/low mix. You know the drill – certain items are worth the splurge, and will serve as the backbone of your wardrobe for years to come, while others are meant to be purchased on the cheap. So, a Chanel bag is an investment you will have for the rest of your life – but do you really need a t-shirt that costs over $200? Of course you don't!
This is by no means anything new, but I think it can be hard to decipher which items merit a substantial purchase and which pieces are things we could stand to save a penny or two on. Because the holiday season has quickly come upon us and I know we could all benefit from a party dress {or three} on the cheap, let's talk money-savers.
Basics are an easy argument here; they get washed, they get old, and you can throw them out and replace them when they get old without feeling guilty about it. There's nothing worse than spending $50+ on a Theory t-shirt only for it to develop those tiny little holes after one trip through the washing machine. But – why buy a dress on the cheap, you wonder? Simple. We've all been there before: You wear something to an event, like a wedding, get photographed in it a bajillion times, and suddenly your latest sequined Haute Hippie number feels as dated as an 80s prom getup. You're over it. When you're spending less than $30 on a dress, you can wear it once and not feel bad about it. That's what it was designed for. The same goes for the anything and everything trendy – you can have your fun with it all in the here and now, and when it's over, it's over. No guilt, and no looking back. Onto the next.
I have a few sources that I typically like to start with when I'm looking for a particular item or trend for less. The first stop? Forever 21.
If the idea of this place wigs you out, you're not alone. I know that walking in to this crazy store can be a bit overwhelming. It's always huge, crowded, and filled with what appears to be a bunch of junk. The thing I've learned about Forever is that hidden amongst all of that junk, there are always hidden gems. Always. A very good friend of mine is the one who we can thank for this lesson: You've got to try things on. Have a bit of an imagination; some things don't look so great on the hanger – but once they're on, you'd be surprised. Ever since I've opened my mind up to this place, I swear I have found so many great items that *no one* ever believes I bought at Forever for less than the cost of a pedicure.
Another thing I've learned along the way? Shop online. You don't have to deal with the crowds, and you can easily stock up on things that don't require trying on like t-shirts and jewelry. I sometimes even nab pieces that really should be tried on, and they usually fit; if not, you can easily return them to your nearest store.
Things I like to buy from Forever 21: basics like t-shirts, tanks, and leggings; dresses; tons of crazy costume jewelry; super-trendy pieces like metallic minis and sequined shorts.
ASOS has fast become my absolute favorite source for both basics and dresses for events. I have purchased several dresses for weddings (one being an asymmetrical velvet black one-shoulder dress, and another being a taupe one-shoulder long gown) for under $100 – some even under $75! I have heard ASOS be referred to as the British version of Forever 21, but I find the quality to be far-superior. They recently launched their US site, featuring free shipping and free returns, which is another reason I'm such a big fan.
Things I like to buy from ASOS: basics like t-shirts, tanks, and leggings; party dresses like this black feather-sleeved minidress; accessories, including both shoes and handbags.
Zara would likely be my #1 choice when it comes to trends on the cheap, if only they had an online component. I have found some of my favorite pieces from Zara – I particularly love getting jackets and blazers there, as well as shoes, tops…basically everything. I typically shy away from buying things requiring a great fit – like pants, jeans, or other bottoms – from Forever 21, but you can definitely count on those at Zara. My favorite pair of black pants ever is from Zara, and of course, fit is also important when it comes to jackets. Though slightly more expensive than Forever, it's for good reason – everything is of higher quality.
Online Sale Sites like Gilt Groupe, Shop It To Me, and Shopping Notes
If you don't know about Gilt Groupe already, perhaps I shouldn't tell you about it. If you're someone who always get carried away when you know you're getting a deal – like me – then this is quite a dangerous site. It's basically a sample sale of designer duds happening everyday at noon. If you aren't already a member and think you can handle the daily temptation, you can score an invite here.
Shop It To Me, on the other hand, is just a congregation of all sales currently going on throughout the web. You choose your favorite designers and/or sites, let them know your sizes, and they send you a daily email with items – all on sale – that match your criteria.
Shopping Notes is where you go when you've found the perfect item with the not-so-perfect price tag. You save the item to this site, and they notify you the moment it goes on sale. It's kind of a no-brainer.
Other go-to sources include: American Apparel for all things t-shirt/tank/simple cotton dress-related, Topshop for more on-trend pieces like party dresses and accessories, Urban Outfitters for more dresses and tops, Gap for t-shirts {especially the super-soft ones from their GapBody line} and accessories like sequin totes and ballet flats, J. Crew for jewelry – though it's not always on the cheap side, Old Navy for things like winter coats and cardigans, BB Dakota for items like leather jackets at a much lower price-point, Madewell for basics like t-shirts and cardigans, Target and Wal-Mart for certain items like sweatpants {just got a great pair of baggy sweats in the boys' department at Target} and love the Norma Kamali line at Wal-Mart, and of course H&M {if you're lucky enough to have one near you, as they very-unfortunately do not have an online component} for anything and everything.
Shoe sources: ALDO is literally my obsession when it comes to shoes on the cheap – it's the first place I look when I'm looking for a new trend or style, Baker's comes in at a close second – my favorite YSL look-a-likes come from there, Steve Madden for basic pumps {and I especially like the Steven brand also carried on the site}, Zappos for when you need something *super* quick – literally, your shoes will be delivered the next day, and Jessica Simpson for great platforms and boots.
Any other favorite ways to save that I've missed? I'd love to know!

In a valiant effort to vanquish the devilish "Projects Board," WPRB embarked on a vicious quest for victory in Dillon Gym for Princeton University's dodgeball tournament.
It was a bloodbath. At the sound of the first whistle, WPRB-ers rushed towards the centerline to acquire all the dodgeballs. The Projects Board, however, had the same idea, and they too rushed to the center with a slightly more aggressive and naturally quicker gait. WPRB would not let this minor problem of having fewer balls get it down. With a fair number of strong lasses and lads and a couple of balls, we began to catapult the enemy. The enemy responded in turn, hitting innocent yet strong WPRB staff members out to the sidelines. Fortunately, WPRB-ers had a variety of strategies. Some went right in for the kill, attempting to hit the large, overly muscular members of the Projects Board with the utmost power. Others hid behind their teammates, just waiting for the moment to throw their victory throw.
Esteemed Music Director Devika Balachandran employed this second method until she was the last member standing. She dipped, she dived, she dodged, just not as aggressively as one might hope. With the entire Projects Board against her, she did not run. She remained strong in the face of danger and did not collapse on the ground with a heartattack. And as a video of Devika shows, she created a new dance move while she ran around the dodgeball court.
It was a slaughter, but a noble slaughter. The Projects Board was a fierce opponent, and as we knights say against the heat of the foul dragon's breath, "At least I tried." (In this badly constructed metaphor the knights are WPRB staff members, and the foul dragon's breath is the Projects Board.)

Auto-advance: ON
Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
Since I want to move forward to the story that everybody's been buzzing about the Tom Cruise Katie Holmes divorce.
Doctor -- Al -- joining us live on Skype.
He's a member of our Fox News medical -- team always a pleasure to have TW.
We can kind of you know -- to bring you find out what people are talking about there's been so much about psychiatry verses Scientology's.
In this case as we -- you know keep peeling back more -- about what might be going on.
With the troubled star couple -- tells about your article and and your thoughts on this psychiatry vs Scientology's.
Yeah -- up -- know the health section of foxnews.com.
Right now.
The interesting part -- -- there are lots of interest in dimensions to this Katie Holmes Tom Cruise did debacle here.
But one really interesting one is that she's asked for sole legal custody of her six year old daughter.
Among forensic psychiatrist and in every case in which I've been involved -- one of the -- -- says I should have sole legal -- -- in primary physical custody to.
-- -- Present data to back that up because what they're really saying is.
My husband my wife in this case she's saying about Tom Cruise he can't parent she's saying he can't be relied upon to do.
Reasonable things now generally back that up by bringing a psychiatrist.
Or to an end to say why.
And explain.
It's got.
Happens then what you gonna have.
His psychiatrists.
Commenting on one of the highest ranking members reportedly of Scientology's.
Namely Tom Cruise.
And this historic tremendous hostility from psychology towards psychiatry they considered -- demonic profession.
And if that's the battle that kind of shapes up in the courtroom.
It's going to give -- a lot of insight into the differences in the way that sick how.
How you treat seeks to make people autonomous.
And give them free will and restore them to health.
And the way -- signed apology has ended up trying to do so whether they've -- -- or they have and or made life more difficult for people.
Would be made -- in that courtroom.
Now what happened what happens if let's say a judge says to both parties I need a psychiatric evaluation of both.
And Tom Cruise as people say that goes against his religion.
What it what kind of you know a lot of -- could they come to.
When it comes in the courtroom could they say could they then -- -- not be evaluated by a court ordered psychiatrist could come down -- that.
That's insisting.
It's a great question.
I don't know that the religion -- clues I suppose it might there might preclude one from visit.
Sitting with a psychiatrist.
Of course a lot of their energy is focused on not being medicated by a psychiatrist so I don't know if you would pass Muster.
But let's say it did.
The psychiatrist would -- still be able to testify because he's a witness for Katie Holmes called by Katie Holmes about her husband.
And that individual.
The psychiatrist we have to say my findings are not based on an interview with the defendant he has refused to do so.
-- findings are based on a review of records letters emails.
Instant messages.
Other elements of discovery.
That might be made playing here.
That could form the basis of an opinion even without an interview with the individual who is the subject of that inquiry.
Wow that's that's really interesting I mean this is gonna -- this is really -- heat up I this is it feels like really only the beginning we're hearing a little bit more.
That would Scientology's be enough.
To grant Katie Holmes sole custody could it be enough and -- The all look the only way that -- technology which after all it's a recognized religion people may have feelings about it.
But it's treated by the united -- government as a religion it has adherents in many countries around the world there are millions of people who -- this is my religion.
We don't want to stomp on that.
It it is.
Is the case that for instance if you don't wanna medicate your child or get surgery for your child and you believe that this is wrong medically according to your religion.
There is precedent for the state stepping in saying that's well and good but we're going to override that.
So this concerns the little girl the six year old if it is felt.
That some of the requirements.
Of psychology training as regards children.
Are dangerous to children and that his intention.
Is to compel her or urged her to participate.
That would be a fascinating moment where it could be quote and quote enough but again.
I wanna remind people that the roots of Scientology's were in returning to people -- self possession.
Helping them defeat negative patterns in their lives -- shared some ground with psychiatry.
If it has.
Wandered from those routes into something darker.
That could come out of this trial that's why I think probably psychologists.
The one who run the ones who run the church.
Are not very comfortable right now at this moment because their religion.
Could be on trial along with his divorce proceeding.
Right RA religion on trial -- -- that's something that we're definitely going to be looking for -- I know -- we're going to be.
What -- your expertise as we wade through the waters of this developing story and others.
I don't forget ever want to look for his.
Article as you mentioned under the health tab on foxnews.com.
Doctor -- out wolf always a pleasure I thank you so much for being with us here today thanks -- teaching and thank you I wouldn't take.

Ohio woman being investigated for possibly casting two six votes for Obama in 2012 election
Tweet |
**Written by Doug Powers
Earlier this month we talked about an Ohio woman — a poll worker no less — who admits to voting for President Obama twice in the November election.
As an update to that story, when Melowese Richardson admitted to voting twice for Obama, it's possible she was just being humble:
Authorities also are investigating if she voted in the names of four other people, too, for a total of six votes in the 2012 presidential election.
"I'll fight it for Mr. Obama and for Mr. Obama's right to sit as president of the United States," Richardson vowed when asked about the voter fraud investigation that is now under way.
Richardson is one of 19 people suspected of illegal voting by the Hamilton County Board of Elections in the last election.
"It appears she not only attempted to vote more than once, but was actually successful at it and having those additional votes counted," Ohio Secretary of State John Husted, who is in charge of the state's elections, told Fox News."She appears to have used her position as a poll worker to cover her tracks. That would be someone who is an official in the elections process, using that position to commit a fraud. That is especially troubling to me, as the chief elections officer of the state, because it is my responsibility to make sure the system runs effectively, that it has integrity. When I find issues like this, I know that it undermines voter confidence in our elections, and we must pursue it."
Three other absentee ballots in the names of different people were submitted to the Board of Elections from Richardson's address on Nov. 1. Officials say the handwriting on those ballots is similar and that they were all received together, on the same day that Richardson's absentee ballot arrived at the office. Richardson maintains that some of the other voters live at her house.
The Hamilton County Board of Elections will hold Richardson's hearing this Friday.
Out of sheer curiosity I searched the websites of CNN, ABC, CBS and NBC, and there was no mention of this story — something that would no doubt be different if the candidate Richardson voted for multiple times had an R after his name instead of a D.

Christmas shopping almost over for last minute buyers
Monday was the final shopping day for Christmas and the clocks are ticking until the stores will close, but the crowds are not as bad as you might think.
"It's actually slower that it usually is," said Reid Shierling, Owner of Ring Em' Up.
"I honestly didn't know what to expect, I only come to the mall once a year and this is it. It seems a little less crowded than last year," said Tim Smyth.
Shierling tells us he was surprised with the lack of people shopping.
"All the people are worried about the crowd, that is keeping them away."
However, while the Johnson City Mall was not filled with people wall-to-wall, there were still some shoppers finishing their last minute shopping.
"I'm a procrastinator by nature," said Smyth.
Smyth says he feels the deals are better, but there is a downfall to waiting until the last minute.
"That's the only problem. One place didn't have what I wanted."
Pat Swinehart said shopping on Christmas Eve is not part of her family's normal tradition.
"No, Christmas Eve is a no-no in our family," said Swinehart.
However, she tells us she is not shopping for last-minute gifts for her family, but rather children who would not be getting much of a Christmas.
"This morning the Lord just said, 'you need to find what you can do to help these kids,' that's the only reason I'm here today," said Swinehart.
Swinehart says she would gladly do it all over again, if it meant bringing a smile to a face of a child. "It's the reason; it's what Christmas is all about. We've really been blessed and I just want someone else to be blessed."
Swinehart told us she and other members of her family have adopted three families this Christmas.

LIVINGSTON, Calif., Oct. 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Unforgettable music and meals are the focus of a new advertising campaign by the West Coast's leading poultry producer, family-owned Foster Farms.

Foster Farms is the nation's only major cooked chicken brand to offer a complete line of frozen cooked products that contain exclusively All Natural ingredients. New television advertisements celebrate this "Amazing Chicken" by introducing a memorable chicken choir clucking three timeless 80s classics, including "Don't You Want Me" by the Human League, "Sister Christian" by Night Ranger and "Africa" by Toto.

Bromley police appeal for information about missing bi-polar sufferer
4:03pm Monday 24th September 2012 in Bromley
A 56-YEAR-OLD man has gone missing from a Bromley hospital causing police to appeal for his return.
Bi-polar sufferer John Sheehan, a voluntary patient at the Green Parks House hospital in Farnborough, was last seen around 5pm on Sunday (23).
However, he requires his medication and without it he is danger to himself.
PC Richard Teall, of Bromley police's missing persons unit, said: "We are very concerned for John's welfare and urge him to contact his family or police as soon as possible.
"His family are worried about him and wish him to return home. They need to know he is safe and well."
Mr Sheehan is 5ft 8ins tall. He has black and grey receding hair, grey facial stubble and is of slim build.
And was last seen wearing a black jacket, black trousers and black shoes.
He is believed to be using public transport around Bromley, Lewisham, Greenwich, Croydon, Bexley, Walthamstow, Westminster and West Sussex areas.
Anyone with information should contact Bromley police's CID on 020 8284 8859 or Missing People on 116 000.

Pittsburgh Penguins center Tyler Kennedy (48) walks through laser lighting as he is introduced before their home opener NHL hockey game against the Toronto Maple Leafs in Pittsburgh, Wednesday. The Penguins are regrouping after losing to the Maple Leafs. (AP photo / January 24, 2013) |
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Hold off on the confetti making. Don't start looking for a good seat along the Stanley Cup parade route. Don't bother trying to pick a spot in the Consol Energy Center rafters for the next championship banner to hang.
For all their talented parts, the Pittsburgh Penguins remain very much a work in progress.
And while the Penguins knew not to overreact to a 5-2 drumming at the hands of Toronto on Wednesday night, a victory that quickly took some of the steam out of Pittsburgh's 2-0 start, they also understand they've can't simply rely on talent every night to get the job done.
"When your mindset is not right when you're playing the Leafs, it can cost you," defenseman Kris Letang said.
Coach Dan Bylsma anticipated an emotional letdown after his team opened the season with emphatic road wins against rivals Philadelphia and the New York Rangers. He hoped the excitement of playing a home game for the first time in nine months would make up the difference.
Instead, the Penguins crumbled over the final 30 minutes, taking a series of penalties that eventually snowballed into a series of uncharacteristic mistakes the NHL's second-youngest team had no trouble pouncing on.
Toronto scored the last three goals, all of them relatively easy tallies following a Pittsburgh miscue. The most glaring came on a botched clearing attempt by Pittsburgh's Evgeni Malkin that went right to the stick of Toronto's James van Riemsdyk at the top of the left circle. The wrist shot whizzed by Marc-Andre Fleury to give the Maple Leafs a lead they would not give back.
And just like that, the aura of invincibility the Penguins showed while drumming the Flyers and Rangers evaporated and the ghosts of last spring's playoff meltdown against Philadelphia returned.
Not that Sidney Crosby is quite ready to go down that road. The superstar chalked Pittsburgh's poor performance against the largest crowd ever to see a hockey game in the franchise's history to a bad night.
"We know what we need to do, we just weren't as sharp as we needed to be," said Crosby, who collected his first goal in 280 days on a breakaway in the second period that tied the game at 2.

Taking Care of America's Military Families
Who? This peer conference is for you. At Military.com, we know that military families depend on you military family professionals, command teams, Ombudsmen, FROs, Key Volunteers, bloggers, journalists, ACS team members, MCCS workers, Fleet and Family folks, government agencies, nonprofits, National Guard FRG leaders and helpful volunteers. This conference is to help you revitalize your approach to your very meaningful work so that we can all take on 2013.
Why? Because you are fresh out of ideas. Because you have great programs and not enough users. Because you need a little innovation, motivation and inspiration. Our vision is that you will sit down between one person from another service you can help and one person who can help you.
What? We banned the PowerPoint. We nixed the panels. This time we are approaching the most important topics in military family life: Love. War. Kids. Work. Transition. Our experts and our participants will engage in new activities and working groups so that you can bring home great ideas that will work in your local command to your local command right away.
Brought to you by the team responsible for SpouseBUZZ, an online military spouse community, and the highly successful SpouseBUZZ LIVE and MilBlog Conference. The Military Spouse Summit promises to be a must-attend event for all those serving and supporting military spouses and families.
"Supporting America's Military Families"
We're excited to announce that Sal Giunta, the first Living Medal of Honor Recipient since Vietnam, will be speaking at this year's Military Spouse Summit. Click here for more information on all of our speakers.
We have secured a block of rooms at a special rate of $159 at the site of the Summit, the Sheraton Premiere at Tysons Corner. Attendees of the Summit will be able to take advantage of our room block on a first-come, first-served basis. For more information on lodging or to register for the Summit, please click here.
Already we are hearing about programs that are cut and culled and quieted. But as military family professionals, we know firsthand that the demand among military families is still there. We can't afford to do more. We can't allow ourselves do less. Our specially designed "Bold Requests" segment will show how Spouse Summit networking solves problems with ingenuity, creativity and, perhaps, a little bit of petty larceny.
You talked. We listened. Instead of asking you to sit for hours listening to panelists, you asked us to make the experts work for you. So we challenged the best and brightest to come up with laser-focused, short presentations designed to move you right into working groups and on to solutions you can use on the job.

Persian Retro Wedding in New England
Johanna and Kamran wanted their day to truly represent them, their life together, their traditions, their style and their loves. There was so much thought put into every detail, everything had purpose, so I welcomed the challenge of making everything look cohesive.
Having their wedding at Saltwater Farms Vineyard, a beautifully renovated airport hanger, we included bi-planes into the favors and used them as table numbers. Keeping with the retro- vintage theme, which was certainly the couple's vibe, old hankies adorned the bouquets and centerpieces, eclectic jadeite containers were the focal point of the guest tables, and an old typewriter was used as the guest book. Wanting the flowers to be very bright and have an effortless feeling, we used hand picked garden flowers with accents of natural elements such as succulents and willow! The bright retro style also came into play with their cake, which was the perfect replica of them and their dog, Arthur! Oh yeah…the Ring Bearer, A.K.A, Arthur had his own limo that dropped him up and picked him up…it was the cutest thing I ever saw! Of course, I decorated his collar so he could look as dapper as his parents!
It was wonderful to see them being faithful to Kamran's Persian traditions during the ceremony. The Sofreh table various housed organic elements that signified certain things. For instance, there was a bowl of eggs to help with fertility. My favorite was the honey that they sensually fed to each other to signify that there marriage and love may always be sweet.
Johanna and Kamran's photographer is Kelly Prizel Photography, but I also asked my friend and professional photographer Kiva from Annandale Photography take detail shots for me since I did not want to miss a thing! They both did an amazing job! See for yourself……
