David Letterman Tribute to an Old Friend
by Mike Stanz
posted Aug 20 2014 5:00AM
Some things just stand alone. Like David Letterman's wonderful recollection of his 38-year friendship with the late Robin Williams.
It started at LA's Comedy Store. "We wanted to make people laugh," said Letterman. And then Robin shows up "like a hurricane," and soon left the others in the dust.
The tribute ends with a collection of clips of Robin's appearances on David's shows.
Wonderful and funny snippets from two parallel lives.
Exactly the way that Robin should be remembered. Thanks, Dave – and thanks, Robin.

Blackbird Guitars Release The Rider Nylon String
The San Francisco based luthiers at Blackbird Guitars have taken it upon themselves to craft the ultimate travel guitar they call the Rider. Perhaps in homage to the classic Doors song "Riders on the Storm?" Seemingly fitting I'd say. Just in time for nuclear winter these bombproof, weatherproof, and virtually indestructible carbon-fiber guitars are the perfect choice for musicians looking for a guitar that is travel compact, without sacrificing tonal quality. The patent pending hollow bodied neck thru one piece is an epic departure from traditional design that proves time and time again, that less is more. Blackbird Guitars currently has two models in production, The Rider Steel String, and The Rider Nylon String. Both look positively post-apocalyptic, and if you have Slash's email, let him know he should re-film November Rain while playing this guitar in the eye of Hurricane Gary. I will have a review up for the Steel String Rider in the coming weeks!

Gorham firefighters called to paper mill fire twice Monday
There were no injuries and Gorham Paper and Tissue lost little production Monday after work was interrupted for a time during one of its two 12-hour daily shifts, according to Gorham Fire Chief Rick Eichler.
The chief said after firefighters cleared the scene at about 3:40 a.m., they were called out again when fire erupted in the connector building made of plywood and dimension lumber, rather than the brick, concrete and steel that was used to build most of the mill.
Eichler and his firefighters returned, but the second time they summoned help from departments in Berlin, Shelburne, Randolph, Jefferson and Milan. The second part of the effort took about 3½ hours, and firefighters cleared the scene at about 8 a.m. Monday, Eichler said Tuesday, adding that an exact cause of the fire had not been determined.
The property near the Gorham-Berlin line has played a long and prominent role in the area. It was originally the site of a sawmill in the mid-19th century, and was home for more than a century to Brown Company paper products.

These products: • • • • • will save energy sources efficiently is environment-friendly provide additional protection against lightning will stabilise voltage balance and current source will protect electrical appliances and prolong their life-span are CE certified is easy to use and maintenance free Become part of the solution – save up 35% on your electricity bill and reduce the release of harmful CO2 in the atmosphere! • • In 2004, after an increased electricity shortage, the Chinese government, realized that they should not only focus on generating more electricity, but also on the effective use of it. In order to promote the development of electricity saving products, a government supported meeting was held in the spring of 2005 to evaluate the different energy saving products. Our Electricity Saving Box was awarded the "Excellent Green Environment-friendly Product" of China. Through this award the Electricity Saving Box was affirmed as a National Class product and also a leading product in the list of electricity savings products in the home. Now, for the first time in South Africa, our company makes it possible for each and every household and small business to become part of the solution in combating global warming, while at the same time saving money. The solution will pay for itself by reducing electricity usage by up to 35%. Page 1 Our Products Power Saving Box The Electricity Saving Box helps …it enhances power efficiencies… and to stabilise voltages and reduce helping to extend the life-span of your currents in your power electrical appliances. supplies. It enhances the power efficiency of electrical appliances, avoiding wastage of the electricity supplies and helping to extend Rated voltage: 90V — 240V the life-span of your electrical appliances. This Rated frequency: 50Hz — 60Hz Rated capacity: 15kW is accomplished by supplying electricity at the requisite load by the use of a specially designed capacitor. These advanced capacitors store the additional electricity needed for stabilising electric current within an inductive load. The Power Saving Box also reduces so-called "parasitic" lossses. Parasitic losses are mainly heat losses incurred in any electrical connection or device which are not used to any benefit. By reducing the current, parasitic losses are reduced and therefore, the amount of electricity purchased from your utility company has been reduced resulting in power savings for your home or office. Saving Saint The Saving Saint is a new high …additional protection against the effects technology product. It is more of lightning… powerful than The Electricity Saving Box (28kW) and has more …oxidise carbon atoms which accumulates functions. It stabilises electric on electrical wire… current and provides additional protection from the effects of a lightning strike. It inhibits high or low voltage; even inhibit big or small wave-like (non-linear) electricity. It Rated voltage: 90V — 240V oxidizes the carbon atoms which accumulates on Rated frequency: 50Hz — 60Hz Rated capacity: 28kW electrical wire so as to drain electricity build-up and acquire equalization. The Saving Saint improves efficiency, reduces electrical-waste (including parasitic losses) and lengthens the lifespan of electrical appliances. The Saving Saint can be widely applied for use in the home, office, school, hotel, restaurant, storage, laundromat, small factory, etc. For 3-phase applications, please contact us for for advice. Page 2 How it Works (non-technical) All electrical supply is subject to surges from time to time, which result in spikes or parasitic peaks that cannot be used by your appliances as working power. These spikes simply consume electricity to no benefit. Worse still, they result in overheating, which shortens the life your appliances and wiring, and in extreme cases can cause burns, blow outs and power cuts. Our Power Saver uses a capacitor system to stabilize the flow of electricity. It reduces the spikes in the supply, protecting against surges. The system improves the power factor of your electricity and reduces your electricity bill by on average 15%. One power saving unit will work on the whole circuit in your building. Our field testing for a typical home consistently show that the unit will save 3 to 4 kW per day, based on electrical consumption of 30 kW per day. The amount of savings depends on a few factors, such as the types of electrical appliances, the time they are in use and the location. Places near to shops, restaurants and light industries, where the voltage supply is unstable and fluctuating will see higher savings. Where voltage supply is particularly unstable, the unit can reduce consumption by 30% or more. …will save 3 to 4kW per day… The unit reduces the reactive power generated by … shops, restaurants and light inductive loads (even non-linear loads). This improves industries…the savings will be higher… by safety by reducing the overheating of electrical 30% or more. wiring. It also extends the life-span of your electrical appliances. In all electrical systems, the wattage heating losses (kWh's you are paying for) are an effect of current and resistance. If you increase either value, the wattage heating losses increase. Wire itself has a fairly low electrical resistance. So wattage losses from wire are typically quite small; however, when wire is cut and placed into a mechanical fastener, (slipped into a hole in a metal block and then clamped down with a bolt), significant resistance is added to the electrical circuit. Each such mechanical fastener can add from 5 to 50 times the resistance of the wire itself. Examples of such connections are: disconnect switches, bus bars, fuse blocks, circuit breakers, heat coils in protective systems, motor starters, distribution transformers, isolation transformers, line reactors, solid state switching systems and lighting ballasts. It is estimated that up to 20% of a building's electrical costs are emitted as heat. The powersaving device will reduce the amount of current flowing through your electrical system – thereby reducing wattage heating losses, resulting in savings in your electricity bill. The Power Saving Box is manufactured in China and is CE certified. Page 3 How it Works (Technical) Power Factor Correction (PFC) Definition Power factor correction (PFC) is a technique of counteracting the undesirable effects of electric loads that create a power factor (p.f.) that is less than 1. Power factor correction may be applied either by an electrical power transmission utility to improve the stability and efficiency of the transmission network; or, correction may be installed by individual electrical customers to reduce the costs charged to them by their electricity supplier. Explanation When an electric load has a p.f. lower than 1, the apparent power delivered to the load is greater than the real power that the load consumes. Only the real power is capable of doing work, but the apparent power determines the amount of current that flows into the load, for a given load voltage. Energy losses in transmission lines increase with increasing current. Power companies therefore require that customers, especially those with large loads, maintain the power factors of their respective loads within specified limits or be subject to additional charges. Engineers are often interested in the power factor of a load as one of the factors that affect the efficiency of power transmission. Power factor correction returns the power factor of an electric AC power transmission system to very near unity by switching in or out banks of capacitors or inductors which act to cancel the inductive or capacitive effects of the load. For example, the inductive effect of motor loads may be offset by locally connected capacitors. It is also possible to effect power factor correction with an unloaded synchronous motor connected across the supply. The power factor of the motor is varied by adjusting the field excitation and can be made to behave like a capacitor when over excited. It is not possible to cancel out harmonic current using these techniques, so different techniques must be used to correct nonlinear loads. Page 4 How it Works (Technical continued…) Electricity Industry Aspects PFC is desirable because the source of electrical energy must be capable of supplying real power as well as any reactive power demanded by the load. This can require larger, more expensive power plant equipment, transmission lines, transformers, switches, etc. than would be necessary for only real power delivered. Also, resistive losses in the transmission lines mean that some of the generated power is wasted because the extra current needed to supply reactive power only serves to heat up the power lines. The electric utilities therefore put a limit on the power factor of the loads that they will supply. The ideal figure for load power factor is 1, (that is, a purely resistive load), because it requires the smallest current to transmit a given amount of real power. Real loads deviate from this ideal. Electric motor loads are phase lagging (inductive), therefore requiring capacitor banks to counter this inductance. Sometimes, when the power factor is leading due to capacitive loading, inductors (also known as reactors in this context) are used to correct the power factor. In the electricity industry, inductors are said to consume reactive power and capacitors are said to supply it, even though the reactive power is actually just moving back and forth between each AC cycle. Electricity utilities measure reactive power used by high demand customers and charge higher rates accordingly. Some consumers install power factor correction schemes at their factories to cut down on these higher costs. Page 5 How it Works (Technical continued…) Application Linear Loads Power factor correction is achieved by complementing an inductive or a capacitive circuit with a (locally connected) reactance of opposite phase. For a typical phase lagging p.f. load, such as a large induction motor, this would consist of a capacitor bank in the form of several parallel capacitors at the power input to the device. Instead of using a capacitor, it is possible to use an unloaded synchronous motor. This is referred to as a synchronous condenser. It is started and connected to the electrical network. It operates at full leading power factor and puts VARs onto the network as required to support a system's voltage or to maintain the system power factor at a specified level. The condenser's installation and operation are identical to large electric motors. The reactive power drawn by the synchronous motor is a function of its field excitation. Its principal advantage is the ease with which the amount of correction can be adjusted; it behaves like an electrically variable capacitor Non-Linear Loads A typical switched-mode power supply first makes a DC bus, using a bridge rectifier or similar circuit. The output voltage is then derived from this DC bus. The problem with this is that the rectifier is a non-linear device, so the input current is highly non-linear. That means that the input current has energy at harmonics of the frequency of the voltage. This presents a particular problem for the power companies, because they cannot compensate for the harmonic current by adding capacitors or inductors, as they could for the reactive power drawn by a linear load. Many jurisdictions are beginning to legally require PFC for all power supplies above a certain power level. The simplest way to control the harmonic current is to use a filter: it is possible to design a filter that passes current only at line frequency (e.g. 50 or 60 Hz). This filter kills the harmonic current, which means that the non-linear device now looks like a linear load. At this point the power factor can be brought to near unity, using capacitors or inductors as required. This filter requires large-value high-current inductors, however, which are bulky and expensive. Page 6 How it Works (Technical continued…) It is also possible to perform active PFC. In this case, a boost converter is inserted between the bridge rectifier and the main input capacitors. The boost converter attempts to maintain a constant DC bus voltage on its output while drawing a current that is always in phase with and at the same frequency as the line voltage. Another switchmode converter inside the power supply produces the desired output voltage from the DC bus. This approach requires additional semiconductor switches and control electronics, but permits cheaper and smaller passive components. It is frequently used in practice. Due to their very wide input voltage range, many power supplies with active PFC can automatically adjust to operate on AC power from about 100 V (Japan) to 240 V (UK). That feature is particularly welcome in power supplies for laptops and cell phones. Page 7 How it Works (Technical continued…) Power Factor Explained Definition The power factor of an AC electric power system is defined as the ratio of the real power to the apparent power, and is a number between 0 and 1. Real power is the capacity of the circuit for performing work in a particular time. Apparent power is the product of the current and voltage of the circuit. Due to energy stored in the load and returned to the source, or due to a non-linear load that distorts the wave shape of the current drawn from the source, the apparent power is equal to or greater than the real power. Lowpower-factor loads increase losses in a power distribution system and result in increased energy costs. Explanation In a purely resistive AC circuit, voltage and current waveforms are in step (or in phase), changing polarity at the same instant in each cycle. Where reactive loads are present, such as with capacitors or inductors, energy storage in the loads result in a time difference between the current and voltage waveforms. This stored energy returns to the source and is not available to do work at the load. A circuit with a low power factor will have thus higher currents to transfer at a given quantity of power than a circuit with a high power factor. Circuits containing purely resistive heating elements (filament lamps, strip heaters, cooking stoves, etc.) have a power factor of 1.0. Circuits containing inductive or capacitive elements (lamp ballasts, motors, etc.) often have a power factor below 1.0. For example, in electric lighting circuits, normal power factor ballasts (NPF) typically have a value of (0.4) - (0.6). Ballasts with a power factor greater than (0.9) are considered high power factor ballasts (HPF). The significance of power factor lies in the fact that utility companies supply customers with volt-amperes, but bill them for watts. Power factors below 1.0 require a utility to generate more than the minimum voltamperes necessary to supply the real power (watts). This increases generation and transmission costs. Good power factor is considered to be greater than 0.85 or 85%. Utilities may charge additional costs to customers who have a power factor below some limit. AC power flow has the three components: real power (P), measured in watts (W); apparent power (S), measured in volt-amperes (VA); and reactive power (Q), measured in reactive volt-amperes (VAr). Page 8 How it Works (Technical continued…) The power factor is defined as: In the case of a perfectly sinusoidal waveform, P, Q and S can be expressed as vectors that form a vector triangle such that: If φ is the phase angle between the current and voltage, then the power factor is equal to, and: By definition, the power factor is a dimensionless number between 0 and 1. When power factor is equal to 0, the energy flow is entirely reactive, and stored energy in the load returns to the source on each cycle. When the power factor is 1, all the energy supplied by the source is consumed by the load. Power factors are usually stated as "leading" or "lagging" to show the sign of the phase angle. If a purely resistive load is connected to a power supply, current and voltage will change polarity in step, the power factor will be unity (1), and the electrical energy flows in a single direction across the network in each cycle. Inductive loads such as transformers and motors (any type of wound coil) generate reactive power with current waveform lagging the voltage. Capacitive loads such as capacitor banks or buried cable generate reactive power with current phase leading the voltage. Both types of loads will absorb energy during part of the AC cycle, which is stored in the device's magnetic or electric field, only to return this energy back to the source during the rest of the cycle. Instantaneous and average power calculated from AC voltage and current with a unity power factor (φ=0, cosφ=1) Instantaneous and average power calculated from AC voltage and current with a zero power factor (φ=90, cosφ=0) Page 9 How it Works (Technical continued…) For example, to get 1 kW of real power if the power factor is unity, 1 kVA of apparent power needs to be transferred (1 kW ÷ 1 = 1 kVA). At low values of power factor, more apparent power needs to be transferred to get the same real power. To get 1 kW of real power at 0.2 power factor 5 kVA of apparent power needs to be transferred (1 kW ÷ 0.2 = 5 kVA). It is often possible to adjust the power factor of a system to very near unity. This practice is known as power factor correction and is achieved by switching in or out banks of inductors or capacitors. For example the inductive effect of motor loads may be offset by locally connected capacitors. Energy losses in transmission lines increase with increasing current. Where a load has a power factor lower than 1, more current is required to deliver the same amount of useful energy. Power companies therefore require that industrial and commercial customers maintain the power factors of their respective loads within specified limits or be subject to additional charges. Engineers are often interested in the power factor of a load as one of the factors that affect the efficiency of power transmission.

42nd Annual Cooking Report
Web Exclusive: Flashy Glass for Cooktops
The decorative properties of cooktop glass are expanding to allow for more individualized kitchens.
Schott Flash Colors
The many distinct variations of Flash Colors on Ceran glass-ceramic cooktop panels allow cooking appliance producers to offer more colors, and allow consumers to create more colorful kitchens.
An innovative pattern printing process is used to manufacture the glass-ceramic with Flash Colors. The process applies colorful patterns to black Ceran, so they dazzle and sparkle when exposed to light. Some even change color depending on the angle of viewing. This iridescent effect is similar to that seen when viewing metallic or opalescent paints on the body of a car.
"By adding an eye-catching color pattern to a standard cooktop, designers can now incorporate the cooktop into the overall aesthetic palette of the kitchen," said Carlos Mendia, director of sales and marketing, the Americas, Schott Home Tech. "There is no longer a sacrifice of form for function."
Subtle Aesthetics Trends
The glass supplier commissioned a worldwide study, and reports that subtle aesthetics, rather than opulent colors, will set the trend in kitchen design in the next few years. The supplier's research shows customers are usually interested in metallic, elegant, or luxurious color shades.
In Europe, where induction cooking using glass-ceramic is most popular, customers favor cooktops with gray shades that closely match metallic surfaces. The research also indicates that North American customers prefer gray and pastels, while Asian customers are partial to bold, intense colors.
This led to the development of color families for Ceran, including a whole new cooktop panel color, granito, as well as other, bolder, more emphatic colors, including, Flash Red, Flash Copper, and Flash Purple.

The Tall Girl Cooks
I like to eat. I sometimes like to cook. I always like sharing my favorite recipes.

Pumpkin Pie Rice Pudding
This is simply an adaptation of the Rich & Creamy Rice Pudding recipe I posted back in April of 2012. We're using canned pumpkin in place of the half-and-half and pumpkin pie spice in place of the cinnamon. Easy peasy. My daughter LOVES this stuff and I found my husband eating a bowl of it late last night - which means he likes it. :) I only got one serving of it and that makes me sad. Guess I'll be making more!
Wondering what to do with leftover canned pumpkin? Here are some ideas: Pumpkin Spice Granola, Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal, Pumpkin Gingerbread Muffins, Pumpkin Spiced Almonds, Pumpkin Bread, Paula Deen's Pumpkin Bars, Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies, Soft Pumpkin Ginger Cookies, Creamy Pumpkin Pie, Pumpkin Cheesecake Pie, Easy Pumpkin Crisp (Pumpkin Dump Cake).
3/4 cup uncooked white rice (not instant)
1 1/2 cups water
2 cups milk
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
1 Tbsp. butter
1/2 tsp. vanilla
3/4 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
Garnish, optional:
whipped cream
In a medium saucepan, bring 1 1/2 cups water to a boil. Add rice and stir. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Add milk, sugar, and salt and cook over med-low heat until thick and creamy, stirring occasionally (about 15-20 minutes). <---this as="" cook="" don="" if="" is="" it="" kind="" like="" long="" longer.="" nbsp="" of="" p="" pudding="" really="" rice="" step="" t="" taste.="" thick="" thin="" to="" you="" your="">
Mix the beaten egg with the canned pumpkin; whisk into rice mixture and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in butter, vanilla, and pumpkin pie spice. Let cool a bit before serving warm with a dollop of whipped cream and a dash of cinnamon. Pudding will thicken upon standing. If you want to serve it cold, cover and refrigerate until chilled. You may need to stir in more milk if the rice pudding has thickened too much while cooling. Makes 4-6 servings, depending on size.

White Texas Sheet Cake Cupcakes aka the Best Cupcakes Ever
Another flashback: this one is from October 2009. Have I really been blogging that long?! I consistently get rave reviews and demands for the recipe when I share a batch of these cupcakes. The frosting pipes so beautifully, it's one of my favorites to work with. They look so pretty with red liners and pearl sprinkles - perfect for Christmas! Or Valentines Day.
October 26, 2009:
I got this recipe from my sister-in-law who got it from a friend. These are by no means good for you, but they are worth the fat in my opinion. You don't have to make it into cupcakes (it makes 24). It will also make two 8 or 9 inch rounds or one 13x9. Be sure to use the cream cheese frosting though, as that is what makes these cupcakes so darn delicious! For a whiter frosting, use clear imitation vanilla.
2 cups sugar
2 cups flour
1 tsp. soda
1 scant tsp. salt
1 cup butter
1 cup water
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tsp. vanilla
2 eggs, beaten
In a large bowl, mix together sugar, flour, soda, and salt. In a small saucepan, melt together the butter and water over medium heat. Stir in sour cream, vanilla, and eggs. Pour into flour mixture and stir until combined. Divide into 24 lined muffin cups (or greased and floured baking pans). Bake at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until tops spring back when touched. Cool completely before frosting.
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 stick (1/2 cup) butter, softened
4 cups powdered sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
In a medium bowl, beat butter vigorously with an electric mixer. Scrape the bowl and add the cream cheese and beat until combined. Add the vanilla and powdered sugar, one cup at a time, and beat until smooth. Frost immediately and refrigerate leftovers.

Fried Rice
Some key things to remember: you get a better result when you use day-old cooked rice (though you certainly don't HAVE to wait that long) and when you don't cook your rice too soft or sticky. A good rule of thumb is to use one cup of water for every cup of rice. So 2 cups of rice + 2 cups of water should yield the 4 cups of cooked rice needed for this recipe.
slightly adapted from Kittencal's Best Chinese Fried Rice With Egg
3 eggs
1 Tbsp. water
1 Tbsp. butter
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 small onion, chopped
1 cup frozen peas and carrots
2 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
4 cups cooked rice
1/4 cup soy sauce (I use low-sodium) + more, to taste
1 tsp. sesame oil
1/2 tsp. black pepper
2 green onions, chopped (optional)
In a small bowl, beat the eggs with water. Melt the butter in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Pour in the eggs and leave flat for about 2 minutes or until cooked through; remove to a plate and chop.
Heat the vegetable oil in the same skillet and add onion and peas and carrots; saute until onion is softened and peas and carrots are cooked through - about 4-5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Add rice.
Drizzle soy sauce and sesame oil evenly over rice mixture and stir or toss over heat for about 5 minutes; add more soy sauce, if needed, to taste. Mix in pepper, chopped eggs, and green onions, if using. Serve hot.

Chubby Hubby Bars
Anyhoo, back to the neglected food blog. I have so many recipes to share that I've been collecting over the last 9 months, however I wanted to re-share this recipe post originally from June 2011. We just had a church potluck and I brought these puppies along. They were gone in 5 minutes flat. My husband was glad that he snuck a piece before we left even though I threatened his life.
I saw the link to this recipe on a friend's Facebook page and had to make them. They are the perfect PMS treat - salty and sweet. It's essentially chocolate chip cookie dough with the added salt and crunch of pretzels. Perfect, right? They could only be improved by adding chopped peanuts, so I've made that adaptation to the recipe.
slightly adapted from Kristin Miller's recipe on JustAPinch.com
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 cup butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 Tbsp. vanilla
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips
1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped mini pretzels
1/2 cup chopped peanuts
1/2 cup mini pretzels
1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup peanut butter or butterscotch chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9x13 baking dish with foil and lightly coat with cooking spray. In a bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt. Using a mixer, beat butter and sugars until light and fluffy; add eggs and vanilla. Beat in dry ingredients just until incorporated. Fold in 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips, 1 1/2 cups chopped pretzels, and chopped peanuts. Spread batter in baking dish; sprinkle evenly with remaining 1/2 cup pretzels and softly press them into the batter:
Bake for 20-25 minutes (until golden brown), then remove from oven and sprinkle with 1/4 cup chocolate chips and 1/4 cup peanut butter (or butterscotch) chips and return to oven for 5 more minutes. Cool in baking dish for 15 minutes, then remove by lifting the foil and place on a wire rack to finish cooling. Cut into bars. Store in an airtight container.

Italian-Style Sausage and Bean Soup
quick and easy french bread to go with it - perfect meal. If you want to do the same, make the bread dough first, and while it is rising and the oven is preheating, start the soup. They should both be ready to eat at the same time.
adapted from Kalyn's Kitchen
16 oz (1 lb.) smoked sausage (or chicken sausage)
2 tsp. olive oil
2 (15 oz each) cans cannellini or great northern beans, rinsed and drained
1 (14.5 oz) can Italian-style diced tomatoes
2 cups (16 oz) chicken broth
1 small onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
2 carrots, peeled and chopped
2 celery stalks, chopped
1 1/2 tsp. basil
1/2 tsp. marjoram
1/4 tsp. oregano
salt and pepper, to taste
grated Parmesan for garnish, optional
Slice the smoked sausage in half lengthwise, then slice into 1/4-inch thick pieces. In a large pot, heat olive oil over med-high heat; add sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and add onions. Continue to cook until onions are translucent; add garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Add diced tomatoes, chicken broth, beans, carrots, celery, and spices. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer for 20-30 minutes. Serve with a sprinkling of Parmesan, if desired.

Smoked Almonds
I thought I'd share this post from back in April of 2010, in case you are looking for a homemade gift that is NOT sweet and sugary. :)
If you buy whole almonds on sale, it can be a lot cheaper to make your own smoked version than to buy the expensive brand. You can even spice them up, if you desire. If you like a very salty nut, increase the salt to 1 tsp.
adapted from Homemade Smoked Almonds on Allrecipes.com
3 cups whole almonds
1 egg white
1 tsp. celery salt
2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. liquid smoke
1/2 tsp. chipotle (or regular) chili powder, optional
Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Line a jelly-roll pan with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, beat egg white until foamy. Whisk in celery salt, garlic powder, salt, liquid smoke, and chili powder, if desired. Stir in almonds until thoroughly coated. Spread on pan.
Roast in oven for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. Cool and store in an airtight container.

Sweet Corn Pudding
Masa harina is a flour made from corn. It is not the same thing as corn meal. You can find it in the baking or Hispanic section of your grocery store.
from Allrecipes
1/2 cup butter (1 stick), softened
1/3 cup masa harina (Mexican corn flour)
1/4 cup water
1 1/2 cups frozen corn, thawed
1/4 cup cornmeal
1/3 cup sugar
2 Tbsp. heavy cream (or milk can be used)
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking powder
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl beat together the softened butter, masa harina, and water until well mixed. Using a food processor or blender, process the thawed corn, but leave it a little chunky. Stir into the butter mixture. Add cornmeal, sugar, cream, salt, and baking powder and stir to combine. Pour batter into an ungreased 8x8 baking pan. Smooth batter and cover pan with foil. Place pan into a 9x13 baking dish that is filled 1/3 of the way with water. Bake for 50-60 minutes. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Are Unconventional Monetary Policies Effective?
Free registration required
Executive Summary
This paper evaluates the impact of unconventional and conventional monetary policies in the U.S. on the Libor-OIS spread, long-term interest rates and long-term inflation expectations. To this purpose the authors investigate the behavior of selected asset yields on the days of monetary policy announcements. They find that liquidity facilities other than TAF reduced the three-month Libor-OIS spread. The QE1 purchases of longer-term Treasury securities and agency debt/MBS lowered long-term interest rates. Furthermore, they find evidence that the Fed's rescue operations and QE2 raised long-term inflation expectations.

New Visitor Check in Procedures
Safety of our students is our highest priority. Giddings ISD will be implementing new check in procedures for visitors to all campuses in an effort to increase student safety. Beginning on January 14, 2013, all visitors to Giddings ISD campuses will be required to present a valid government issued photo ID to the campus office. Their identification will be scanned into the Raptor V-soft visitor management and screening system. If cleared, the system will print a visitor's pass with a photo, date, time, and destination. The system will alert campus administration when registered sex offenders attempt to check in on our campuses.
Visitors that do not have a valid form of identification will only be allowed access to the office or waiting area. Valid forms of ID include a Driver's License or ID card from any of the 50 states, U.S. Passport Card, Active Military ID, or Mexican Consulate Card.

Into the Arms of Love
A Journey Through the Madness Industry
How Christianity Is Transforming China and Changing the Global Balance of Power
The Little Way of
Saint Therese of Lisieux: Into the Arms of Love, by John Nelson.
Therese--who died of tuberculosis at age 24 and was canonized less than 30
years later--was an unassuming woman who found great joy in her littleness.
This volume promises to be refreshing spiritual nourishment.
Social Ethics for Social Justice
Mass Graves and the Recovery of a Historical Memory in Spain
Gary Dorrien's spring Century
article, which argued for economic as well as political democracy, whetted
my appetite for the book that part of it was adapted from: Economy, Difference, Empire: Social Ethics for Social Justice.
A Narrative
A Memoir
I have two major reading projects that I'll be continuing in tandem this summer. They may sound like polar opposites, but I find them to be quite similar.
New and Selected Poems
Last spring I helped the church
I was in the process of leaving prepare for its 100th anniversary celebration.
One of my tasks was to track down contact information for the people on the
invitation list. It wasn't exactly what I went to seminary to do, but I'm a
librarian's daughter and otherwise generally disposed to exemplary
web-searching skills.
One Suburban Family, Four Rules, and 365 Days of Homegrown Adventure in Pursuit of Christian Living
Where I live at 10,200 feet, the
trees have not yet budded. May is still early, early spring in Leadville,
Colorado, but all around me is a sudden burst of gardening. For months, people
have been filling their homes with starter plants; now they're calling around
to see who has space for more in the few small greenhouses.
In 1831-32 two
young Frenchmen, Alexis de Tocqueville and Gustave de Beaumont, traveled
through the United States, ostensibly to study the prison system on behalf of
the French government. But the prisons bored and often appalled them--Quaker-inspired
prisons in Philadelphia being the exception--so they spent very little time in
And How to Read One
Staring helplessly at a broken appliance or other household
malfunction, I often recall a quip by Joseph Epstein, an essayist and editor:
the only thing I can fix is a sentence.
While on retreat recently, I picked up Patrick Leigh
Fermor's A Time to Keep Silence. I
was making my own transition from noisy life and noisy mind to four days of
retreat when I came upon Fermor's description of his retreat at a French
monastery in the '50s.
times of grief, "the very sun and moon seem taken from us," writes Oscar Wilde.
He continues:
An Intimate Portrait of a Nation's Remaking
"In the ordinary course of human affairs countries churn slowly.
. . and then there are moments of special upheaval, when empires depart, when
ideologies rotate. . . . India was in the midst of such a moment. The meanings of
destiny, family, love, class--of what it means to be Indian--were being defined
anew by millions of people, all at once."

2001 Dodge Dakota Problems
Exhaust manifold bolts commonly break, exhaust manifold gaskets should be replaced and replace bolts as needed.
Engine overheating can result from coolant leaks which are commonly found at the thermostat housing gasket, water pump, heater return tube O-ring at the water pump, intake manifold gasket, and timing cover gasket. Our technicians recommend a complete inspection of the cooling system after any repairs are made to be sure there are no other leaks.
On 3.7L V6 and 4.7L V8 engines the camshaft position sensor may fail causing the engine to crank but not start or it can cause intermittent stalling. A failed camshaft position sensor will require replacement.

2001 Dodge Dakota Recalls
Chrysler is recalling certain 2001-2002 Dodge Dakota, Durango, Ram 1500, Ram 2500, and Ram 3500 models because the park shift interlock system may not function correctly. When this system fails, the shifter can be moved out of the "Park" position with the ignition in the "lock" position. The ignition key can also be removed when the shifter is not in the "Park" position. Either of these conditions could allow the vehicle to roll away unexpectedly, possibly resulting in a crash. Dealers will replace the gearshift blocker and bracket assembly.
Chrysler is recalling certain 2000-2003 Dodge Dakota and Durango 4WD models because the front upper ball joints may wear out prematurely. Water intrusion can cause rust to develop, which will accelerate wear and cause a clunking noise in the front suspension, which may or may not be heard by the vehicle occupants. Excessive wear may allow the ball joint to separate, which could result in loss of vehicle control. Dealers will replace both front upper ball joints to correct this issue.
2001 Dodge Dakota Reviews
Bought this Quad cab 5 speed manual 4x4 4.7 engine new in September of 2000. Currently has 51K miles on it. Had ball joints replaced due to recall. replaced the water pump because of bearing noice. Also put on K&N Intake, Magnaflow Exhaust and Rancho shocks. The truck has been pretty reliable and is the perfect size for a family especially the Quad cab. I really like the 4.7 engine. With ...
I have had this 01 Dakota 4X4 Club Cab since 02. It is my 3rd Dakota and I like it much better than the 1997 or the 1992 that I had. Those were V6's this is the V8, 4.7 is a good engine, good MPG. I just replaced the original tires at 56,000 miles. Still has the factory brakes front and rear. I just replaced the oxygen sensor and the MAP sensor and the battery. That is all that I have done...
good truck for long trips. good highway miles handles vary well.

Would it be a lot of work to add a parameter called
tantum to the existing Polish noun templates, taking
s or
p as its value, so that e.g.
{{pl-decl-noun-ja|korupc|tantum=s}} would work just like
This would reduce the amount of work needed to add singular-only and plural-only words.
I had the same idea for the longest time (except I named the argument
|num=)… but I never really got around to implement it.
Anyway, it works now for
{{pl-decl-noun-ja}}. If someone moves the rest of the specialised declension patterns into Module:pl-noun (and switches templates to use that module), they shall start supporting it too.
Hi, Please let me know whether my new edition is appropriate or not. Thanks.
When you do things like this, make sure to fix double redirects.
but the msg could seems quite generic since I imagine (I might make a mistake, of course) that, when the specific exception thrown on the validation against the schema is catched, a specific alert could be doc.written by the code in the catch block, couldn't it?
There is no real "schema" or "exceptions", there is only Special:AbuseFilter/1. So what if "the msg could seems quite generic"? The filters are designed to rather fail to catch bad edits instead of giving false positives, so if you get a warning, there is probably a very good reason for that. If you cannot understand why you get an error, just ask.
And please keep discussions in one place.
Hi. Thanks for being a voice of sanity around here, at least as far as I'm concerned. Why are you not mailable (Special:EmailUser/Kephir)? Wiktionary:Administrators#Notes suggests we have to do this, though I am not sure how often it matters to anyone.
Good to know I am succeeding at something (in at least one person's eyes…)
I just never bothered to set up an address under this identity. Main problem being the choice of provider. I am not very enthusiastic about having a Google account, and I have used up most other viable alternatives already. It does bite me from time to time (like when I am unable to participate in Bugzilla), but not to the point of me doing anything about it.
Oh well. You need it for anything? The quasi-policy by itself does not bother me too much. (Is there any policy besides WT:ELE that we treat seriously here?)
Ah, not the reason I expected! I mainly find myself annoyed by systems that *don't* accept e-mail and require something else (e.g. Facebook or other proprietary non-standard system). If you're genuinely having trouble finding a free (throwaway or otherwise) mail account then you're welcome to have one on one of my domains; I've had some of them for about 15 years now, scarily enough, so they tend to stay around.
I don't need it for anything but I had considered sending you an e-mail :) Lucky escape.
Hey, thanks for your edit to the Welsh adjective template, but it's broken when it takes the "mwy" parameter; see awchus for example.
Some taxonomic names that are mostly italicized have a portion that ideally should not be italicized, terms that occur between the italicized words, eg, subsp., var., morph, form, sect., subg., etc). I cannot figure out how to achieve this with the taxonomic templates (
and as they are now. I tried pipes with both wikiformatting and the HTML "i" tag. I wonder whether the formatting built in to the template (style "biota"?) overrides any such formatting. Is there a simple way to change this? The scores of thousands of uses of these template mostly appear correctly except for this detail, which affects fewer than two thousand template uses, I think.
It is most meaningful probably for the inflection-line template, with perhaps 100-200 template uses with those preferably un-italicized terms.
It seems to have trouble recognizing Jèrriais- cadaver for example.
It seems that it's still using language templates, even though they've long been deprecated. See per annum for example.
Can you modify pl-decl-noun-sing so that it automatically adds category:Polish singularia tantum? Given what Template:label does, this must be possible, but I don't know any Lua.
Same for pl-decl-noun-pl.
Please stop subtracting valid requests. It makes you look paranoid and it annoys people.
See this and evaluate this revision. But more importantly, reevaluate this revision, and ask yourself why Pass a Method would 'joke' like that. She or he is probably feeling depressed.
The only items that can remotely be considered valid hits on that list are "Atheists do not worship the god Athe." or "Atheism is a highly secretive religion devoted to private worship of the ultimate, all powerful god Athe.". Which kind of speaks for itself: there is practically no such word. Unless you define it as "
{{label|en|humorous}} hypothetical deity supposedly worshipped by atheists" with a trivial back-formation etymology. (Did I really just explain an obvious groaner to you?) Though if you really think it should be included, you could add the entry with this (or similar) definition yourself and not clutter the already-overloaded list of requests.
Maybe if you read Wiktionary:Beer parlour/2014/March#Recent edits to US location entries, you will understand why. Though then, if I have to explain puns to you, maybe you will not.
I'm not interested in fighting over the inclusion of a silly word. But concerning Pass a Method, holy FUCK, mate! The topic was SIX! BLOODY! MONTHS ago! How typical of you lot to obstinately hold onto your grudges. If you think that the name is 'silly,' it is of no consequence to the project. Please restore the request.
Template:ttbc breaking
I'm not sure why, but pages that use this template have started breaking. Not only are unwanted categories now appearing on the page (specifically, categories for languages that don't exist on Wiktionary), but all translation boxes after the one containing the template get broken. They're also triggering invisible module errors.
Could you have a look at this?
Breaking template boxes has been fixed (it seems to be an unrelated regression in Scribunto, which hit Module:ugly hacks). Adding nonexistent categories for nonexistent languages is expected. The module errors… see for yourself.
What preferences do we let anons have? I thought the idea was for them not to have much because we want folks to register.
Please answer on my page as I hate LiquidThreads to the extent of simply not following any page with it activated. Is there a way that someone like me could watch the page of a LT user and respond the old-fashioned way without all the glitz? (I have had to erase my four tildes after every sentence I have written in this post.)
FYI, I have created Template:R:PWN and placed it to a couple of pages. Should you have an issue with the template, please let me know.
I see you added quotation marks. I won't remove them, but note they are not used in some of the most popular reference templates. I think it was Robert Ullman who opined that the quotations marks are excessive typography given the color and icon we use in the external hyperlink.
No real objection. In fact I sometimes consult PWN myself, just to make sure I did not miss any definition. Though we do not tend to treat dictionaries as very authoritative anyway. Also, I would have probably named the template
{{R:pl:PWN}} myself.
I place these kinds of sources to "External links", to suggest we do not use them as an authority. As for "pl:" prefix in the template name, I think it does not add any value, and is longer to type.
jajko: I think the IPA pronunciation does not match the recording here or another recording I found. I think the k sound is affecting the shift from a to j.
I hear no such thing, and I speak no such thing. And "jajko" is definitely not pronounced as two words.
The articles I found say that a space separates syllables, not indicate that it should be pronounced as two words.
Here is the article I found. http://www.nativlang.com/linguistics/ipa-pronunciation-lessons.php "It's important to keep syllable structure in mind, since syllable divisions are based on the syllable structure of a language. We may even represent syllable divisions in IPA with a low dot or period between syllables: "hand over" /hæn.dow.vər/, "astronomical" /æs.trə.nɑ.mɪ.kəl/."
Then why do you put spaces there?! Did you learn IPA yesterday? Because that surely does not entitle you to "correct" what other people wrote, especially regarding a language (as I infer) you do not speak at all.
And actually, syllable division is quite often so ill-specified that I start to doubt that having syllable breaks in the pronunciation is any useful. Module:pl-IPA adds them, but I have considered dropping it several times. Too much trouble for little gain.
You are right. The stress acts as the syllable break.
Compounds and Template:affix
I actually had the same idea you did, but didn't want to implement compounds just yet. The reason is that a compound is not necessarily any word composed of two or more whole words. There are, I think, several entries which use
{{compound}} with terms beginning or ending with hyphens, but are probably still compounds.
Look at the transclusions for Template:tracking/compound/prefix, Template:tracking/compound/suffix and Template:tracking/compound/interfix for a full list.
Okay, this condition may have some false negatives. Has it got any false positives?
Also, I think these tracking lists are not very useful at assessing the accuracy of this check. They contain doorzettingsvermogen (obviously a compound, and would be detected) and poniedziałek (false compound, and would not be marked as such), and probably more such examples.
And why not put this comment at Template talk:affix? Or BP?
To find any possible misdetections, you would have to copy the detection code to the
{{compound}} function in the module, and track any entries for which the detection does not result in "yes this is a compound".
Here it is: Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:tracking/compound/looks like confix, Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:tracking/compound/one whole word. It seems there are not so many of them, but I guess we have to wait until the job queue goes through it all to be sure.
No, you just misheard it. There really is a [u] there. [u] is the standard pronunciation of "ó". [o] does not exist except in dialects.
I noticed you added a check for the second parameter of rfd/rfv archive templates to make sure no unescaped pipes slipped through. This, however, does not catch the presumably rare scenario where there is an equals sign following the unescaped pipe, since that would be passed as a named parameter. I just had the idea of a module that could be invoked like this:
{{#invoke:argtools|check_for_extra_args|these|are|the|allowed|args|cat=Archive templates needing attention}}. This would just be inserted at the end of a template and it would check for any arguments not listed and add a category if any are found.
{{rfv-failed|quuxxyz|bar}} would also fail to be caught (it should be noticeable visually, though). I fear some performance problems with that solution, though. Maybe add it to ugly hacks for now.
I added a check_for_extra_args function to Module:ugly hacks (I haven't tested it yet). I don't see why the performance would be bad at all (the slowest part would probably just be loading the module), especially since these archive templates tend not to be transcluded too many times on one page.
In this instance probably not. However, I think it would not be necessarily desirable to use it very widely either. I think it defeats lazy template argument expansion, for one.
Maybe one could ask at bugzilla: for some "unused arguments tracking" functionality for use in modules.
I object to placing discussions to collapsible boxes. I object to admins acting as editors of discussions. This is not a common, long-standing practice in the English Wiktionary; I have been here since the end of 2006.
You asked why I did not revert before. I did, multiple times. But I do not have all the time in the universe to revert war.
I do not hope that this post will lead to a change of your behavior. It is here for the record. I think that both -sche and you are of cultural backgrounds that are not comfortable with an open discussion and an open but honest and civil criticism of people.
See points 5 and 8 of WT:NOT: "Wiktionary is not a soapbox, chatroom or discussion forum", "there are discussion rooms to discuss Wiktionary-related topics" but "Wiktionary is not a battlefield. Every user is expected to interact with others civilly", etc. The subthreads I collapsed had veered far from Wiktionary-related territory into harassment / soapboxing about topics irrelevant and indeed harmful to the project. As for Purplebackpack's collapsing of his own thread, I agree with his assessment that it wasn't going anywhere, and I agree with the assessment of others that it was just [contributing to the continuation of] drama. Should it or shouldn't it have been collapsed? Meh.
Please do not call another editor a "lying illiterate troll"

What neighborhoods in Nashville are considered safe? Is Buena Vista a decent place to find an apartment?
Nashville's Buena Vista neighborhood is located closer to downtown and though it is a lively place to find an apartment, it is not unsafe. Some notoriously unsafe areas include Nolensville Road, which is south of the city, Antioch, and the Madison area. The safer parts of Nashville are in Green Hills or Belle Meade, though both of those areas are rather expensive in terms of rents in Nashville. Bellevue and Sylvan Park are other options to consider finding an apartment, though they are located outside Interstate 440.

Thanks for stopping by Genealogy Circle. I'm Cindy Freed, the family story enthusiast here. I LOVE potato chips, the Cincinnati Reds, shabby chic stuff and researching my family's history. There's something in me that wants to touch my long gone ancestors. I can't explain it but it's there. I need to know them, what they liked and didn't like. I need to see them, how they dressed and ate and lived. Since I can't leap back a century or even a few decades I learn about them and their lives through research, lots and lots of research. You know what? I'd be the first to sign up for a time-travel experience. Just punch in 1860 please! Then onto 1890 with a stop in the 1920s too! Oh yeah . . . .
Now I sort of stumbled into Civil War research. It really started when my husband and I made a side stop in Gettysburg, PA. while on my birthday vacation. He called it the "Cindy World Tour" and Gettysburg was a last minute addition. As we toured the battlefield it bowled me over. The emotion I felt as I stood on Cemetery Ridge and envisioned Pickett's Charge unfolding before me was indescribable. Chills ran up my arms. I nearly cried. I was hooked!
I needed to know more about the Civil War and the guys who fought it. I've researched many soldiers and the war for the past six years. I've found my first cousins 4x removed, brothers James and George Van Meter have the best stories! Their lives were filled with marriage, divorce, illness, death. A real soap opera in the mid 1860s! Their stories were lost to history but not any longer because I unearthed them through research and have written about them on my blog. That's a real source of pleasure for me – knowing Civil War soldiers and their fight haven't slipped through the pages of time. They're still very real, written and spoken about here at Genealogy Circle.
Right now I write a monthly Civil War research column for The In-Depth Genealogist called, "Tracing Blue and Gray. I also write for the "4th Ohio, First Call". It's the quarterly magazine for the 4th Ohio Volunteer Cavalry Descendants Association. That's beside my twice a week blog posts here on Genealogy Circle. As I research I write about my finds here on the blog. I hope the tips will help you in your genealogy research.
I'm doing some speaking now. My presentation, "Researching Your Civil War Ancestor – From Beginning to End " is popular with genealogy societies.
I also have a mostly monthly newsletter cleverly called "Civil War Research Tips". (I really do need a catchier name for it!) As a subscriber you'll receive all this action-packed info first! Just sign up here in the right sidebar and pass the word along if you know someone that might be interested in Civil War Research Tips.
I'm also a social butterfly! I love twitter! Follow me @Genealogycircle, or Facebook, on Google+, and Pinterest. Let's talk! You can always email me at cindy@genealogycircledotcom. Now that you've heard all about me tell me something about yourself!

good Customer Service.
This review is from: Brand New USB Data Sync Charger Cable for Kindle Fire HD 7 inch (3.5 FT) BLACK
Pros: Charge quick through computer USB port.
Cons: Nothing at this point. No power outlet adapter. But, you don't really need it if you have computer next to you.
Other Thoughts: Quality customer service. I actually made some complaints about this seller because I didn't receive the item for more than 3 weeks. I waited my item to be arrived, but it didn't. I was upset a little bit. So, I asked for the refund. The seller contacted me through email and made apologize to me. And, he gave me an option. He could refund my money or send another product to me. So, I asked for sending another product. He did it so quick that I just received my item today. I would recommend this seller.
