The North Carolina State Wolfpack were busy offering recruits yesterday, and they decided to extend an offer to 2014 in-state pro-style quarterback Jalan McClendon. The 6'3″, 192 pound West Mecklenburg High standout from Charlotte received an offer just a day before from an ACC heavyweight in the Miami Hurricanes, and he is also very interested in the Florida State Seminoles. McClendon is high on an in-state rival of N.C. State's in the North Carolina Tar Heels, and he would also reportedly like to have an offer from the Clemson Tigers. There is plenty of in-state and ACC interest for McClendon, and this offer from N.C. State is just the latest big one. He is interested in the Wolfpack, so they do have a good chance with him.
McClendon has received three other offers in his recruitment from in-state schools in the East Carolina Pirates, Wake Forest Demon Deacons, and Appalachian State. Charlotte and South Carolina State, however, are two schools that have been eliminated in his recruitment and both offered. Duke, Georgia, Tennessee (Jay Graham is McClendon's primary recruiter for the Volunteers), Ohio State, South Carolina, Vanderbilt, Virginia, and Wisconsin are major programs with interest in McClendon.
Last season at West Mecklenburg, the top 25 recruit in the state of North Carolina tossed 11 touchdowns, ran for five more, and he had 1,400 total passing yards. However, McClendon actually looked better as a sophomore, as he threw for more yards in 2011 with more touchdowns and less interceptions.
Although he is listed as one of the top 50 pro-style QBs in the nation, McClendon can tuck it and run with five touchdown runs last season. He runs a 4.88 forty, though, so that's why he isn't a true running quarterback. The three-star QB is rated by many services as among the 900 best prospects in the 2014 class, and it will be interesting to see if schools like Tennessee and Wisconsin become the next major programs to offer McClendon.

February 17th, 2014: Cultural Appropriation
-photo belongs to: http://manakahandmade.tumblr.com/
I was looking through the gorgeous girl's Tumblr from above and saw that someone was attempting to chastise her for cultural appropriation by wearing three dots which the person thought was to represent a bindi. This made me think of many other times I see users on this site blame others for cultural appropriation where it was not warranted.
If you adopt something from another culture, in my opinion, and are respectful about it I don't see a problem. It is very easy to be inspired by things from other cultures and I think that is wonderful. Naturally if you are inspired by something, especially when your physical representation is concerned, you adopt it in some way shape or form. There is a difference between what Manaka and many other people are doing and the true definition of cultural appropriation.
"Cultural appropriation is the adoption of some specific elements of one culture by a different cultural group. It describes acculturation or assimilation, but can imply a negative view towards acculturation from a minority culture by a dominant culture.[1][2] It can include the introduction of forms of dress or personal adornment, music and art, religion, language, or social behavior. These elements, once removed from their indigenous cultural contexts, can take on meanings that are significantly divergent from, or merely less nuanced than, those they originally held." via Wikipedia.

Saint Alexander Nevsky listen (help·info) (Алекса́ндр Яросла́вич Не́вский in Russian; transliteration: Aleksandr Yaroslavich Nevskij) (May 30, 1220? – November 14, 1263) was the Grand Prince of Novgorod and Vladimir during some of the most trying times in the city's history. Commonly regarded as the key figure of medieval Rus, Alexander was the grandson of Vsevolod the Big Nest and rose to legendary status on account of his military victories over the German invaders while employing shrewd conciliatory policies towards the powerful Golden Horde.
From Tales of the Life and Courage of the Pious and Great Prince Alexander found in the Second Pskovian Chronicle, circa 1260-1280, comes one of the first known references to the Great Prince:
"By the will of God, prince Alexander was born from the charitable, people-loving, and meek the Great Prince Yaroslav, and his mother was Theodosia. As it was told by the prophet Isaiah: 'Thus sayeth the Lord: I appoint the princes because they are sacred and I direct them.' "...He was taller than others and his voice reached the people as a trumpet, and his face was like the face of Joseph, whom the Egyptian Pharaoh placed as next to the king after him of Egypt. His power was a part of the power of Samson and God gave him the wisdom of Solomon...this Prince Alexander: he used to defeat but was never defeated..."

Wow, thank you very much! That's really wonderful of you! -smiles-
Okay then, here are the 5 random facts of myself. Don't get yourself too excited -chuckles-
1. I'm ambidextrous. I draw with my right hand and play table tennis with my left hand.
2. I nearly got away with getting a ear piercing at sophomore year before I got caught by my parents.
3. Believe it or not, I love listening to hard rock. It has always been a source of inspiration to me.
4. Even though I made 'The Kan', a manga about a chef, I really suck at cooking. For example, I burned my hand while I was trying to make scrambled eggs.
5. I used to be the shortest among all the boys during middle school.

Thank you for this since the mainstream media in the US does not make clear how utterly one-sided this conflict is or give voice to legitimate Palestinian grievances. Along similar lines: http://ifamericansknew.org/
Which legitimate Palestinian grievances? To be unable with impunity to launch 16 Grad barrages at Israeli cities in accordance with what Article 7 of the Hamas Charter says?
Article 7 of the Hamas Charter reads:
"The hour of judgment shall not come until the Muslims fight the Jews and kill them, so that the Jews hide behind trees and stones, and each tree and stone will say: 'Oh Muslim, oh servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him,' except for the Gharqad tree, for it is the tree of the Jews."
Article 7 is taken from Hadith Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 177 and quotes the Prophet Muhammad:
Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle said, "The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. "O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him."

I just bought a Nexus 7 — my first android device ever. Everything else I have is either iOS or MacOS.
I love Nexus 7 for one and only one reason – its form factor. The 7" form factor is just perfect for a vacation tablet – for reading, for quick information browsing or watching some pre-loaded you-tube videos. Its fairly slick – but for the not so pretty Android User Interface.
( Credit: Google Inc. )
So, it is pretty clear to me that the 7" form factor is a great winner, and its price point does help things further. There is no doubt in my mind now that Apple has to release a mini-iPad to maintain its lead in the tablet market. Even if Apple prices it at higher a bit – and it will – say at $299 for 16GB, it would maintain its market share. The draw for Apple products has not waned down a single bit and there is a reason for it. Android is just not a great user experience. Reminds me of X-windows days – designed by engineers for engineers.
Now, lets talk about Kindle Fire. I am pretty sure Kindle fire is doing fine given that they got the right form factor. So did Barnes and Noble's nook. These companies needed to release a tablet to lock-in their subscribers. Google probably doesn't have much of a reason to release a tablet but to just give a brand name to the non-Apple tablets, which have been doing terrible – Motorola's XOOM and Samsgung Galaxy tab were not as successful. But not sure if Nexus 7 would go too far in changing the perception of Android user experience. Its only a winner because it's the latest tablet in that form factor – until the next version of Kindle Fire arrives. And until the iPad mini arrives.
Its time for Android tablet vendors to decide what market niche's they are going to hit.
So far, the limited success that Android tablets have had is with book readers – who want a convenient way to carry their reading arsenal. The price point and form factor are they only two things that matter here. The basic performance, battery life are a given.
Android tablets need to find other niches – such as the education market. A lot depends on the software/application vendors but if Google recognized these niches, it can help in focusing on making their platform more amenable to these niches. Google should use google books, google scholar to its leverage.

Qmobile E785, E786 and E787 Features and Price in Pakistan
Qmobile is presenting few low price phones for you. Qmobile E785, E786 and E787 are latest mobiles in the E series. E785 and E786 are available in the mobile mega malls of Pakistan but Qmobile E787 is an upcoming phone which will hit the mobile mega malls very soon. The detail of E786 is already issued in some previous post. Here we will take a look on Qmobile E785, E786 and Qmobile E787.
Qmobile E785:-
The price of it is Rs. 1,800 in Pakistani mobile mega malls. This phone contains a display of 1.8 inches TFT screen. Dual SIMs and Dual batteries are available in it. Like E786 it also has a wireless FM radio for news and music lovers. It plays the MP3 and MP4 formats files and has a torch light. The memory of this phone is expandable up to 4GB through card.
Qmobile E786:-
It is almost the same in size like previous model and also has the display of 1.8 inches TFT. With all features of Qmobile e785 this phone comes out with a Smart Camera in it. Other specification and features are same. The Price of it is currently 1,950 Rs.
Qmobile E787:-
Qmobile E787 is a bar shaped phone like previous models and also has all the specification of E series phones. The only addition we find in E787 is the Smart Camera and Bluetooth. As we told earlier that it is an upcoming mobile phone which is not available in the mobile mega malls yet that's why it is hard to determine it price. It definitely will be a little high price phone then the previous ones.

Let parliament work for sake of crucial bills: Activists
Civil society activists Saturday appealed to parliamentarians to allow the houses to function allow the passage of important pending bills.
"We appeal to our representatives in parliament to ensure that there is no further disruption of proceedings and that important pending bills are immediately and conclusively debated," said a joint statement by civil society organisations.
"We are extremely concerned about the danger of lapsing of a large number of very critical bills."
The representatives made a special appeal to MPs from Andhra Pradesh who have constantly disrupted parliament over the Telangana issue.
They asked the MPs to raise the issue in a manner that "does not deprive millions of Indians justice and relief that parliament alone can deliver to them".
"While we appreciate that disrupting parliamentary proceedings is a legitimate form of dissent, yet the prevailing level of disruption inevitably promotes, among the people, disenchantment and frustration with democratic processes and institutions," the statement said.
"The consequent erosion of respect for democratic institutions concerns us immensely as it does not bode well for the future of India," it added.

Shoot Me In The Face With a Laser
In life you can't do anything half-ass. You have to fully commit to an extreme and that's why when I first started to see the early signs of chin hair on my 20-something year old face (this was a few years back. Relax, I'm not trying to lie about my age) I knew I either had to let that -ish grow to bearded lady status to get it smoother than a Michael Jackson moonwalk.
At first I could handle it on my own. Tweezers were weapon of choice. Pluck, pluck, cool. Then something else happened. I realized that as a black woman my hair has a mind of it's own. Like the hairs on my head, my chin hairs were coarse and obtuse. I started to develop dark spots that marked where these rude as hairs would return to ruin my face whenever they felt like it.
I wasn't alone in this. Maybe its the steroids in the meat or estrogen in the chicken (They inject chicken with estrogen right, that's why it's so tender? No, ok) but all my black girlfriends were sprouting five o'clock shadows. BEARDS!
It was time to conceal.

China, US agree to curb tax evasion
Updated: 2014-06-30 09:12
By Elizabeth Wu in New York (China Daily USA)
The agreement between China and the United States for US financial accounts registered at banks in China to send their tax reports to the US Internal Revenue Services (IRS) to curb offshore tax evasion will have positive effects for China, experts said.
The agreement will also enable Beijing to obtain information on mainland taxpayers in the US to help fight against tax evasion and corruption.
"No doubt, the news is positive and will aide China's anti-corruption efforts in its financial institutions," said Zeng Zhaoning, an economist at Xi'an Shiyou University, in a June 29 report by Huashang Daily, which is based in Shaanxi province. "The wealthy in China are obtaining foreign nationalities for their children and spouses to illicitly transfer income to foreign financial institutions in an attempt to escape tax reviews by the Chinese government."
Beijing Economic Research Institute Chairman Gong Chengyu said that overall, Chinese citizens in the United States have more accounts than US citizens in China, "so in the long run, it is more beneficial for China".
Under the agreement announced on June 26 by the US Treasury, US financial accounts will report their taxes directly to the Chinese government, which will then file them to the IRS. In the past, the accounts were only required to be reported to the foreign country's government.
The two countries agreed on the terms, but are reviewing before officially signing it. The new agreement will remove the threat of blacklisting or penalties that have been hanging over Chinese financial institutions, including institutions in Hong Kong, the US and other subsidiaries in the Chinese mainland.
The US government's implementation of the 2010 Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) is to curb offshore taxes that were previously not reported. Around 80,000 banks and other financial institutions have agreed to start reporting to the IRS on US-owned foreign accounts by July 1.
FATCA is a US law that requires financial institutions around the world to provide information on US taxpayers to the US government. The Treasury Department said on its website that Beijing had reached an "in substance" intergovernmental agreement Model 1 (IGA 1) with the US.
Under the act, financial firms around the world are required to report to the IRS information on clients who are US taxpayers. Those that fail to do so would face a 30-percent withholding tax on their US income. The law's definition of a "US person" includes green-card holders and anyone with a substantial connection to the country.
Agreements have been signed by the US with governments in 80 countries including almost all major economies, a senior Treasury official said. The agreements will allow banks to turn over account information to their governments instead of handing it directly to the US - a potential violation of privacy rules in some countries.
In the past, Chinese officials expressed concerns about the potential burdens of complying with FATCA. The US has used intergovernmental agreements to simplify compliance.
"The conclusion of a model 1 IGA with China is a very significant development,"
said Manal Corwin, principal-In-charge of Washington National Tax-International Tax Policy at KPMG LLP and former deputy assistant secretary for tax policy for international affairs at the US Treasury Department. "The IGA will remove obstacles to compliance with FATCA and will allow Chinese financial institutions to avoid withholding under FATCA through direct reporting of information to the Chinese government."
A tax consultant in the US, who is familiar with the situation and prefers not to be named, said: "My understanding is that FATCA is aimed at shutting down tax planning by US persons that avoid US tax by shifting income to non-US banks outside of the visibility of the IRS."
The consultant said: "This tax planning is primarily directed towards lower tax jurisdictions such as Switzerland. In my experience, since China imposes relatively high corporate and individual income tax rates on Chinese entities, citizens and Chinese domiciled persons the opportunity for US tax avoidance is not as great, and as such, not as large of a focus of the FATCA program."

In 2004, Ohio had the longest lines in the country on Election Day, with some voters—particularly in large urban areas—waiting as long as seven hours to vote. A DNC survey estimated that 174,000 Ohioans—3 percent of the state's electorate—left without voting. George W. Bush won the state by just 118,000 votes.
Despite roadblocks by industry and state officials, well water contamination found in four states
The Associated Press has confirmed what residents have long known and the oil and gas industries have sought to hide: the controversial process of hydraulic fracturing, as well as conventional oil and gas drilling, is polluting and contaminating well drinking water supplies.
"Seems like old times," was former ODP chair, David Leland's comment when we exchanged greetings at the Statehouse, October 2nd. Indeed it did. About 1000 enthusiastic women and men showed up for a rally entitled, "We Won't Go Back: Stand Strong with Ohio's Women!"

Iker Casillas encourages young people in Uzbekistan to volunteer
On 5 December, the world celebrates International Volunteer Day. This year, the United Nations campaign to promote volunteerism in Uzbekistan is joined by none other than Iker Casillas, renowned goalkeeper, captain of both Real Madrid and the Spanish national football team, and UNDP Goodwill Ambassador for the Millennium Development Goals.
"While my job on the pitch is to prevent goals, my job at UNDP will be to help score them," says Iker Casillas about his mission as Goodwill Ambassador.
Through a public awareness campaign, Iker Casillas is encouraging young people in Uzbekistan to volunteer in their communities and take pride in helping others.
"I admire volunteers for their passion, energy and commitment," said Casillas, adding that volunteerism will help them to develop both personally and professionally.
From a development perspective, getting young people involved in local projects encourages innovation at a young age and makes sure that their rights are promoted, their voices are heard, and inter-generational knowledge is shared – all of which supports positive change in their lives and their communities.
Uzbekistan has a rich heritage of community-based aid initiatives, but young people interested in volunteering need help connecting with the relevant opportunities.
To mark International Volunteer Day, the Social Innovation and Volunteerism in Uzbekistan project (funded by United Nations Volunteers and UNDP) is launching a national website on volunteerism and social innovation – I Act Uzbekistan.
The website provides information about how volunteerism supports peace and development, as well as providing a space where people can discuss and contribute to socially innovative community development projects.
The most important feature of the website matches would-be volunteers with organizations, foundations and NGOs that need help realizing their plans. The site addresses the current situation in Uzbekistan: Young people are keen to volunteer, but do not know how and where to take action.
With I Act Uzbekistan, young people with an interest in volunteerism and social innovation have the tools to follow Iker Casillas' call and get involved.
Please join us in celebrating International Volunteers Day, and ACT!

About Maura Vrabel
- Hi! I am Maura Vrabel and I am so glad you are visiting my site. I am honored to have consistently ranked as one of Coldwell Banker's top producers. I have an easy-going style that will ensure a smooth, enjoyable home buying or selling experience. As a Realtor, I always try to be enthusiastic, responsive, well-organized and well versed in the market place. My number one priority is to make everyone feel important. Both Coldwell Banker and I are committed to the highest standards of professionalism, integrity, client concern and service. I look forward to winning your trust, loyalty and friendship while achieving your real estate goals. I have experience and am happy to help buyers and sellers in the following neighborhoods: Lincoln Park, Lakeview, Old Town, Gold coast, River North, River West, South Loop, Streeterville, Wrigleyville, Ravenswood, Lincoln Square, Andersonville, Bucktown, and Wicker Park.
- I pride myself on always maintaining a great rapport with my clients and other Realtors and believe that helping people with Real Estate is my passion, joy, and profession for life.
- For Buyers, whether you are first-time or seasoned, I find out what your priorities are and listen to your needs. My goal is to show you properties as they debut or before they appear on the open market. I can provide detailed information on almost any property currently listed for sale and help you analyze the value. With 25 years of experience in the various neighborhoods of Chicago I can help guide you with any information you may need on schools, parks, restaurants etc. I'm your go-to person for settling into your new home.
- I pay attention to every detail in marketing your home, from the number of websites we can feature your home in to maximize its online presence, to creating a buyer profile of the buyer I think is most likely to buy your home. Coldwell Banker provides a huge advantage to you the seller. As Chicago's number one national company they have resources that are unparalleled in this market. This backing of a national brand allows your home to be seen in more than just the Chicago market for those that may be relocating and gives you prime exposure in the local market.

Plus, you will never want for a call back and will receive additional progress reports once a week. These practices have made me a consistent top producer, and I firmly believe they will work for you.
- My personal qualifications and expertise will help you succeed in your real estate goals. For 9 years I had the pleasure of working on a successful sales team selling Museum Park, the premiere Chicago lakefront development (and one of the largest built in Chicago) consisting of hi-rise condominiums, townhomes and lofts. This gave me experience with first-time buyers, relocation, second home purchases and myriad other property types. I was also proud to represent Landmark Village (townhomes and single families in Lakeview), Altgeld Court (loft condominiums in Lincoln Park) and Ravenswood Park (townhome community) in East Ravenswood. This varied property type experience and foundation built in several of Chicago neighborhood markets differentiates me from other Realtors you may meet and gives me confidence in the knowledge I have gleaned in working with floorplans, pre-construction, financing, and varied neighborhoods.
- I grew up in a large family in the Northern suburbs and am proud to call Chicago my home for a lifetime. Currently I reside in Lincoln Park and am raising a family. Virtually all of my business is through personal referrals and neighborhood associations. I love to spend time traveling, cooking, playing tennis and spending time with my family both here and in Lake Geneva, where we love to get away. I'm always happy to help you find a second home in the Wisconsin area as well, it's a wonderful place to have to escape to now and then!

Crippled tears fall unnoticed, unwanted
In a shadowy room that's dimly lit,
By a fading, flickering, suicide candle
Grasping in vain for that last broken straw,
were the last silver lining of hope refuses to surface.
At last a solid decision is made for the good of all,
To become one with the cold chill of fall,
As the roaring freight train in the brain makes its final stop.
The bullet slips effortlessly into the waiting chamber,
like the last sperm penetrating a waiting womb.
The climactic end to an invisible existance,
and in one instance,
that last glance in the dusty cracked mirror tells the truth,
This was you.

If you plan on being anything less than you are capable of being, you will probably be unhappy all the days of your life.
~ Abraham Maslow
Thus, I have no such plans. Rather, my motto of late feels most appropriate: "live big… live unafraid… live unapologetically." From now forward, I intend to live as fully and completely as possible, sparing nothing of goals and dreams that—through the first four decades of my life—have been sacrificed to a guise of homogenized normalcy. That's not the life for me, I have no designs on letting my hopes and priorities take a back seat any longer—to hell with dogma and expectations!
I am-… oh good heavens, where to start?! I am a born and raised Northern California native and recent transplant to what has since become my favorite city of all—Seattle, Washington. I am married to a wonderful and lovely woman, my wife Julie. I have three amazingly beautiful and talented teen-age daughters, each of whom I am tremendously proud of. Beyond this, I am a 40-something trans-woman well established on the road to gender transition. With the help of insatiable research curiosity, an amazing therapist, and the tremendously inclusive and welcoming culture of the local LGBT community, I have made significant strides in many areas of my life–personal, academic, and professional. Ultimately, I am seeking no less than a Master's degree in psychology, generally focusing on cognitive and humanistic approaches to therapy and patient care. My goal- through blogging and social media- is to connect with like-minded individuals: providers, specialists and other members of the mental health community; members and allies of the LGBT community; and any who express or identify themselves as transgender or any other form of non-binary gender identification.
Rounding out the short list of me-ness: writer, photographer, college student-psychology major, LGBT rights advocate/activist; wanna-be Imperial Storm trooper, pin-up model (curvy of course!), and 40s jazz club frequenter; total foodie, coffee snob, wine lover, and fan of all that is Guinness or vodka; shoe slut, jeans-and-boots fanatic, lover of scarves, polka dots, Chanel, and burlesque; I am deeply moved by music from the likes of Miles Davis, Marilyn Manson, and the Chieftains. I consider myself many things but have a love-hate relationship with labels. I cherish living in the moment… spontaneous, free, and unique. I am no more or less than myself in every quirky, beautiful, and flawed way that has served to mold me into the soul you can read about here as this blog develops, as this identity evolves, as my life moves forward through the next year and beyond.

The comeback that wasn't meant to be. That's how this game goes down in 49ers lore after it looked like Colin Kaepernick and company were poised to wrestle the Vince Lombardi trophy from the hands of Ray Lewis. The first half belonged to the Ravens as Joe Flacco continued with his hot postseason hand. I'll […]

Why the Baltimore Ravens will win the Super Bowl
02/03/13 at 12:55am by Cincinnati.Com Staff | Comments
I don't watch a lot of Super Bowl coverage in the two weeks leading up the game. I could never stand all the non-news and still can't, especially as networks have 24 hours of airtime to fill. All I really care about is the game, and its finally here. By tonight, either San Francisco or […]
Native son Aaron Rodgers looks to end 49ers' playoff hopes
01/10/13 at 1:41pm by Cincinnati.Com Staff | Comments
Does Aaron Rodgers really need any extra motivation against the 49ers this weekend? If he does, the former NFL MVP will have to look no further than the venue: Candlestick Park. Rodgers, a native of Chico, Calif.–just three hours north of the Bay Area–grew up rooting for Joe Montana, Steve Young and those great San […]

For many in the world of fantasy football, Week 15 of the NFL season means were down to the final four. One win separates a select few from playing in their respective championship game. And while the payouts are nice, bragging rights are even better. * Be sure to adjust your rosters accordingly, as the […]

Bikes, cars and electronics: Meha's Expensive Wish List of 2009.
You know what I hate about YouTube? How they mute all songs now. Bastards. Anyway. This is my wishlist for 2009. If you really love me, you'll (at the very least!) remember me in your prayers and hope I get at least one of the things on the list.
1. Kawasaki 1700 Vulcan Voyager Motorcycle. I've talked about this endlessly, but srsly. It's in my dreams. Whenever I surf through movies and TV, there's a commercial or show featuring a motorcycle. God is trying to tell me something, I swear!
2. Aston Martin One-77. *Cries*
3. Porsche 911 Turbo Cabrio. I think I'd look good in yellow, don't you?
4. Ferrari California, 2009. I've wanted a cherry red Ferrari convertible since I was 11 years old. And it still looks awesome.
5. Canon EOS Camera. Gearing away from the list of unobtainable cars, I'm also searching for unobtainable cameras. And I've got my eye on this one. A photographer friend of mine uses it sometimes, and his pics come out amazing.
6. Flip Mino HD. Much more affordable, and easier for me to use. I hear the sound quality isn't great, but you can just upload the footage via the USB, which is more than a little convenient.
7. AT&T Quickfire, in Lime Green. I don't know why I want this phone in particular. It's definitely not as cool as the motorcycle. I don't even know what features are on it. I just know it matches my current phone, where the lime green sides have mostly scraped off. Sob.
8. BLACKBERRY BOLD. How did I not know about this little piece of awesomeness before? I'm so out of it. And I could definitely use the "fastest Blackberry."
Now. Get praying. I neeeed to have one of the above before the summer hits.5 years ago

Need Few Ingredient Meal Ideas
Find a Conversation
|Tue, 01-06-2009 - 8:52pm
Hi, ladies. I briefly mentioned this in another post, but am officially soliciting ideas. For 1 weekend a month, DH has to go to Drill for Army Reserves, and our 6 month old DD and I go with him. We're almost 4 hours from home, but it's the town we used to live in and a lot of our family is still there. We stay at his grandma's house and find ourselves eating out far too frequently (it used to be every meal from Friday dinner to Sunday dinner!). The last few times we've gone to the grocery store and picked up a few items to make meals at the house. They offer for us to eat their food, but we already feel like we impose (is that the word I'm looking for?) on them being that we're there every month and all. So I'm trying to figure out some cheap meals we can have while there but we will be buying all the ingredients (except like spices and butter and such, we don't have a problem using those!) so they need to be meals that don't require much to make. We have full use to the kitchen so that's not an issue. We just prefer it to be quick and easy and inexpenive. Here's what we've been eating:
Hamburgers and Potato Chips
Hot Dogs and Macaroni and Cheese
Frozen Pizza
Thanks in advance for any ideas you might have!
|Tue, 01-06-2009 - 9:19pm
Homemade macaroni and cheese
What you need:
Elbow macaroni
Onions or onion powder
Bay leaf
Salt and pepper
Shredded chedder or jack cheese or a combination (and my friend swears by adding velveeta for creaminess)
Make a standard white sauce, add cheese...combine with cooked elbow macaroni. Put in a casserole dish, additional shredded cheese on top. Bake in a 350F oven until bubbling and cheese on top is slightly browned. YUM-O
Cuban black beans and rice
What you need:
1 can on black beans
olive oil
chopped green or red pepper, chopped onion, minced garlic
bay leaf
cumin powder
salt & pepper to taste
white rice
Saute onion, pepper and garlic in olive oil until softened and fragrant. Add beans, a tablespoon of cumin powder, a bay leaf, salt & pepper to taste, a splash of vinegar. Bring to a boil, lower to simmer and cook for at least 15 minutes - adding water as needed to make some broth. Serve over cooked white rice.

I love this crockpot recipe:
1 lb pork tenderloin (I buy the super cheap butt roast for about $4 at WM)
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup thick salsa like Pace (I buy store brand)
put ingredients together in crockpot and cook on low for 8 hrs.
|Tue, 01-06-2009 - 10:15pm
I make baked ziti:
1 jar spagetti sauce\
7 oz or so of ricotta
2 cups mozerella
2-3 cups uncooked ziti or penne noodles
Boil the noodles until almost al dente. Drain the noodles and mix in the ricotta and 1/2 the mozzerella. Pour 1/2 the pasta sauce in the bottom of an 8X8 or 9X9 baking pan. then layer on the noodle/cheese mix, then the rest of the sauce. Finally top with remaining mozerella and bake at 350-375 for about 40 minutes (until edges are bubbly).
You could also make tacos or soup from a mix (Beark Creek makes great mixes)
Buy a rotisserie chicken precooked from the grocery store and just heat sides (like baked beans)
I'll try to think of more. GL!

Here is a super easy, inexpensive recipe for homemade macaroni & cheese.
2 c dry macaroni
1 can Cheddar Cheese soup
1/2 soup can of Milk
1/2 c sour cream
Salt & Pepper
Shredded Cheddar Cheese
Cook the macaroni, drain. In the same pan, add the can of Cheddar Cheese soup with

I have a recipe book called "The Four Ingredient Cookbook" where every recipe has 4 ingredients. I love it! Once I get the meat I usually have a lot of the other ingredients already at home. If there's a bookstore around (especially a discount one) I highly recommend this cookbook.
Some easy things I like to do: (sorry my recipes are very casual, that's how I cook)
Pour a jar of salsa over some chicken and bake it. Towards the end of baking, sprinkle with cheese and finish baking. Serve over rice.
Chicken foil wraps
box of stuffing mix
can of cream of chicken soup
can of cream of mushroom soup
bag of frozen peas
4 chicken breasts (or a bunch of tenders) fresh
add the water to the stuffing mix and set aside
mix the soups with a little milk (just thin it a bit)
put each breast in the middle of a square piece of foil
cover with some stuffing
top that with some peas
pour some soup over it
bring up the sides of the foil
put them on cookie sheets
bake at 400 for 30-45 min or until the chicken is done
This may seem like more than a few ingredients but it's soooo easy and makes a lot:
King Ranch Chicken
2 cans chicken breast white meat (the other option is to cook 1lb. of bnls sknls breasts and chop up. I think the cans are just so much easier)
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cream of mushroom soup
2 cans Rotel (diced tomatoes and green chilies)
Corn Tortillas
Shredded Cheese
Mix the chicken,soups and rotel
Layer the mix with the tortillas in a 13 x 9 cooking dish or large casserole dish
top with cheese
Cook at 375 for about 25 min or until heated thoroughly
My dh just loves it and it's one of my faves to make and eat!
Also, it's always easy to chop up some good veggies (maybe a little meat) and throw them and some cheese in with some eggs and scramble it up. Make some bisquits or put it in tortillas. We do this as a healthier alternative to pancake dinner but when we want breakfast for dinner. If you make bisquits you will usually always have what you need for homemade gravy too. Milk, flour, salt and pepper, oil or grease. Easy and so yummy.

Can you use their freezer? You could do something like make a big batch of chili and freeze half to have on hand the next time you go.
|Thu, 01-08-2009 - 8:47pm
I love this- it's super easy & even the kids love it :)
Goulash: (this does make a bit but is awesome as leftovers and can a be frozen)
2cups elbow mac. cooked acording to pkg (we make it with 3 cups so it goes farther)
1lb ground burger
2tsp chili powder divided ( you can add more or less to your taste)
1tsp onion powder
2 cans tomato sauce
Brown burger with 1tsp chili powder and onion powder.
|Fri, 01-09-2009 - 10:15am
I was going to say the same thing as Laura - make a double batch of a few things that can easily be reheated and take that with. Even if it's just a part of the meal - make some awesome spaghetti sauce with meat &/or veggies and take that, then just make the pasta. A good soup, stew, or chili is easy to reheat. Make a small pan of lasagna and bring it with to be baked.
There's a white chicken chili season packet out there (McCormick's maybe?) that all you do is add chopped chicken and a can of white beans. We usually then add a can of diced tomatoes (with green chilis if you want extra zing) and it's very tasty.

The entrance is the same as in a very large train station. The rooms are totally cold. No interest at all. It has nothing from a 4 stars hotel. Just the lake view is nice, at least from the rooms of the 8th floor. No wifi in the rooms, only in the lobby.

A Short Poem about S.O.P.A

You probably remember the days of 8-bit consoles. There was something special to those systems. Maybe it was the nature of what was happning. It was a special time when the world had not yet seen the video game system in the home. Nintendo did a bang out job projecting just that image into the worlds heart. There first system, the Nintendo Entertaiment System (NES), would come to be an icon for Video Game Consoles. We also cannot forget about it's predicessor the Super Nintendo Entertaiment System (SNES). Few consoles had such an impact on the world of gaming the like those two.
Now, Retro-Bit has made it possible to now play both of these systems in one console! Introducing the Retro Duo. This console is designed with todays functionality with yesterdays game experience. To find out more info on the Retro Duo click on the link below titled "More Info".
