Since I have begun blogging about my passions, food, baking, cooking and everything that goes with it, I have tried to participate in as many food blogger challenges that I can reasonably fit into my time. And once I start one, I want to give it my all, participating weekly or monthly as the challenge goes. These events, created by and run by passionate food bloggers, push me to stretch my limits and go beyond my own personal safety boundaries, trying new ingredients and recipes that I might otherwise not have dared. They inspire me to expand my culinary horizons, extend my skills and pull myself up and out of the rut of the "same old same old".
Now, as you may have read in earlier posts, this doesn't always please all of the people all of the time. One son follows me around the house, arms flailing, voice raising to levels of near-hysteria, practically accusing me of parental abuse because I make new things, things it is so obvious that he will not like, refusing to stick to the 5 dishes that I am absolutely sure that he likes. The other son, happy eater though he be, spits venom each time I mention that I have baked something else, lashing out that I am an obsessed freak shoving food down their throats, practically force feeding them. Yet if he walks into the kitchen looking for something to eat and finds no home baked goodies, nothing simmering on the stove or ready to grab, he complains that there is never anything in the house to eat, insinuating that I am lax in the mothering department.
* sigh * I know we all go through this, the long-suffering parents of adolescents that we have become. I love to cook and bake, and I am often in a baking frenzy, pumping out one thing after another in quick succession, yet there are days which find me totally drained, worn out and out of ideas. All I want to do is curl up with a good book and a hot cup of coffee somewhere and forget that I have a family. Well * heh heh * you think with all the complaining they do, they would just let sleeping dogs lie, be happy with a bit of foraging. No.
Well, enough complaining. How in the world did I get to this point? Oh, well, back to potatoes….
So yesterday we were celebrating Clem's acceptance to the National Architecture School in Nantes. This could not go uncelebrated. JP ran out and bought a beautiful bottle of Cremet de Loire (our local Champagne), the color of pink diamonds, happy father that he was! I needed to come up with something worthy of a celebration, yet something that everyone, all 4 of us, would thoroughly enjoy.
Oysters? Not likely! No more so than a gorgeous seafood platter or delicate finger foods. I settled on a platter of spicy Samosas served simply with a salad and a bowl of creamy, cool Raita for dipping.
This was also a double-pronged fork, in a manner of speaking, for me. I began this post speaking about blogger challenges and got sidetracked by the wonderful news, long anticipated, of Clem's acceptance to the school of his choice. Yet I had originally chosen this Vegetable Samosa recipe as a delicious entry for this months' POTATO HO DOWN, hosted by Cathy of Noble Pig.
My sons love my other savory filo triangles, spinach-feta and lamb with pine nuts and raisins, so I was hoping that they would fall on the platter of these Potato Samosas with the same ravenous delight. The filling, creamy/chunky potatoes with Spring-fresh tiny peas and a flavorful Indian-inspired spice combination, was a snap to put together, the making of the triangles themselves, though somewhat time-consuming and messy, is pretty straightforward and fairly simple once you get the hang of it, and the accompanying Raita, made from a mixture of sour cream and Greek yogurt and kicked up with an array of spices and chopped fresh coriander, is just as easy to toss together and the ideal foil for these spicy treats.
Clement, basking in the glory of his success and the holy anointment by Champagne, did indeed pile his plate high with plump, flavorful Samosas, scooping up tablespoons of the cool, tangy Raita and enjoying himself completely. Simon worked around the plate, suspicious of anything wrapped in dough, assuming the worst of me, knowing that there could very well be * gasp * vegetables hidden in those warm, heavenly-scented packets! He eventually took one, left it for a while on the edge of his plate (waiting for what?) then tentatively pulling off and tasting a bit of the crispy, buttery filo dough, then finally biting into the Samosa. Needless to say anything other than that he actually did eat 2 (2!), so you know that they were delicious! JP declared them fabulous!
So, here is to Clem! Yay! And here is my May entry for the Potato Ho Down and this Potato Ho' will be putting on her most colorful silk sari and her best earrings and dancing a little Bollywood at that Ho Down!
Inspired by Madhur Jaffrey's Indian Cooking and Annie Somerville's Everyday Greens
This recipe makes 20 - 30 triangles depending on how you size them.
1 lb 10 oz (725 g) potatoes (I used all-purpose Charlotte potatoes, use something like Yukon Gold)
Vegetable oil
1 medium or large yellow onion, finely chopped
½ tsp ground ginger (or 1 Tbs peeled, grated fresh)
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
½ tsp ground cayenne pepper
1 tsp salt + to taste
Grinding of freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon for juice
Few tablespoons chopped fresh coriander
½ cup tiny, tender, sweet peas, fresh or frozen, thawed under running water
About ½ cup water at the ready
2 packages filo dough (about 20 sheets)
4 Tbs unsalted butter, melted
Peel and cube the potatoes and put them in a saucepan. Cover with cold water and bring to the boil over medium heat. Lower the heat and simmer until tender, about 10 minutes. When cooked, drain in a colander, stop the cooking by running them under cool water and drain again. Set aside.
Heat 3 Tbs vegetable oil in a skillet. Add the chopped onion and sautée until soft and golden, just browning around the edges.
Add the cooked cubes of potatoes and 3 or 4 tablespoons of water to the onions. Working quickly and adding more water if needed to keep the potatoes from burning, mash (with an old-fashioned potato masher or a fork) the potatoes to the desired consistency (smooth, chunky or some of both), stirring them well into the slightly caramelized onions.
Now, stir in the peas – if using thawed, frozen peas – and a bit more water, lower the heat and cover the pan, allowing the peas to steam until tender, about 2 or 3 minutes.
If using fresh peas, add the 3 Tbs water and the peas to the onions before adding the potatoes, lower the heat slightly, cover the pan and allow to steam until tender, about 3 minutes. Mash the potatoes on the side and then add them and stir them into the pea/onion mixture.
Over the lower heat, stir in the spices, salt and pepper, the chopped fresh coriander and the juice of half a lemon. Combine well and allow to just heat through. Taste and adjust seasonings, adding more salt or lemon juice as you desire.
Remove from the heat and allow to cool to room temperature.
Prepare the triangles as shown here :
On a clean work surface, place one sheet of dough, the long side running left to right. Brush lightly but completely with melted butter. Add a second sheet of dough on top, brush with butter and repeat with a third sheet.
(you can change the size of the triangles by following my recipes for Spinach-Feta or Lamb Triangles).
Using a sharp knife, slice, from top to bottom, into 5 even strips. Place a heaping tablespoon (or whatever you are comfortable working with. I tend to overstuff my triangles!) and fold up as pictured.
Seal closed with melted butter as if it was glue sealing closed a tiny package.
Repeat with the other 4 triples strips.
Repeat with more sheets of filo dough, 3 sheets at a time, sliced into 5 strips at a time, until all the potato filling is used up.
As you work, line the triangles up on parchment-lined baking sheets.
When you have a tray filled, brush each triangle with more melted butter. If not baking right away, cover the baking sheet with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator.
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
When the oven is preheated, remove the plastic wrap from the triangles and bake for 20 – 25 minutes until golden and puffed (mine start to split a bit).
Remove from the oven and serve hot, warm or even room temperature with the Raita dipping sauce. These are also ideal to take on picnics or serve as finger foods at a party.
1 cup (250 ml) sour cream
½ cup (125 ml) whole Greek yogurt
1 cup grated peeled and seeded cucumber, water squeezed out
¼ tsp curry powder
¼ tsp ground cumin
1/8 tsp Cayenne pepper
¼ tsp turmeric (optional)
1 tsp salt (or more, to taste)
1 tsp sugar
¼ tsp white pepper or freshly ground black
A large handful of chopped fresh coriander
Freshly-squeezed lemon juice to taste (optional)
Peel, seed and grate the cucumber for 1 cup. As you add it to the sour cream/yogurt, squeeze out excess water.
Blend all the ingredients together.
Taste and adjust seasonings, adding more salt or lemon juice as desired. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
Serve with the Potato Samosas :

I loved it when I had our adolescent boys brought friends. They were always on perpetual empty and would eat anything, don't think they ever savored much though. Adolescent really is a psycho time in our lives, I think made to try parents souls ;o)
I need to do some samosas, yours remind me of what a treat they are.
- May 13, 2009 at 8:17 AM
- The Cooking Photographer said...
Ekkkkkkk teenagers!
I love making, eating, reading, and drooling over samosas. You just taught me that I could use prepackaged dough! I think I love you.
- May 13, 2009 at 8:35 AM
- Jamie said...
I so agree that adolescence is just a test - to try the parents' souls!
Laura - LOL! I tried making homemade filo (phyllo?) dough once and what a disaster! But, then again, I am not the Queen of Patience!
- May 13, 2009 at 8:46 AM
Congratulations to Clem ! You must be so proud.
Loved the samosas - I really like spicy food. How about having a bash at dosas ? Your spicy potato filling would work well in those.
- May 13, 2009 at 10:43 AM
- Tangled Noodle said...
Congratulations, Clément! It's a great achievement to be accepted in your first choice school!
And these samosas are an excellent way to celebrate that achievement! The problem for me is that I will probably quite a few of them before they make it to the table. 8-)
- May 13, 2009 at 7:21 PM
- Chef E said...
BTW this is on my list of 'to make in Texas' with my childhood friend, and I meant to tell you that the ones they make in Indian restaurants here has such a thick crust, that I make mine with egg roll wrappers so it is not so much dough to a bite!
I like your version better than fumbling with the wrappers! My friend is going to gain weight while I am there, as she asked me to teach her how to cook, lol
- May 20, 2009 at 11:36 AM

Wow ... I am still processing all the info that you offered in this post. Thanks so much ... I am adding this to my "gotta try it someday list".

Potato Samosas are one of my favorite foods but I've never tried to make them. These look delish!
And your sons running around the house complaining about your cooking had me laughing out loud!

Gorgeous dish! I've made spinach spanakopita before, but never potato samosas. I need to try these!

But he has a drug problem, and one day he's found under the influence by Drey (Shareeka Epps), a 13-year-old female African-American student.

I have been doing my research about becoming pregnant again, after 8yrs, and was awaiting a call from two specialists to make appointments. The fertility specialist called me, finally, but the call didn't go as planned. See, I had my tubes tied in 2000, knowing full well I wouldn't want to go through what I did in 1995. I don't regret the decision, but want a child of my own, with my dh. I was basically told that my insurance would more than likely not cover and IVF and that the cost is upwards of $10,000! [:0] I don't have that kind of money now.
My dh and I always talked adoption from the time we met. While I am waiting for my insurance company to let me know if anything would be covered, we made an appointment with an adoption agency. The agency is Catholic Charities, in our area, they go through the whole process and it is based on a sliding scale, based on your income.
I know a few women on this board have stated they are not going to get pregnant again and will adopt. I was wondering if they had started the process, could shed some light on it, and if there is also an adoption forum out there that I could look in on.
Thank you for your continued support....{{{{hugs}}}} to all the mom's![:)]

- Local prepositions and serial verb constructions in Thai (1984)
- The present paper is an attempt to describe a particular semantic domain in Thai, that of local relations, in terms of a gradual interconnection of what traditional descriptions usually regard as distinct and isolated categories. It is based on the well-known observation that isolating languages like Thai typically display a high degree of 'multifunctionality', or else of syntactic 'versatility' of very many lexical items. […] The semantic area studied in the following pages yields a clear systematic interconnection of three different categories, viz. that of nouns – as the focal instance of maximum syntactic independence –, that of verbs – as, conversely, the focal instance of maximally relational concepts –, and, as an intermediary category between these two, that of prepositions which the system lexically feeds from both these opposite ends. The examples given in the course of this paper have been obtained from published grammatical literature, from Thai texts, and from informants.

Good course. I enjoyed the pace, flexibility in completing assignments, and the content was appropriate for law enforcement.
I enjoyed taking this course. It was very helpful and it complimented my other Spanish classes. It was very well put together and interesting.
I can't wait to take more classes. Thank you so much for making this class so easy to take and understand!
My Spanish vocabulary really improved!
I will definitely go back to my director and recommend this course. It would help our new associates to get comfortable with talking on the phone to Spanish speaking customers.
I was surprised how helpful this course was! I truly learned far more than I expected to. I feel this course will be very helpful to me working in the field and I also look forward to continuing my studies of Spanish.
I really enjoyed taking this course. The material was very helpful and easy to follow. I would recommend this course to others who are interested in learing the Spanish language.
Thank you for a very interesting learning experience. The course was great!
Thank you! The course was very well done and I enjoyed taking it.
It was fun to follow the characters through the course! It gave the material some flavor, rather than just having dry material.


text: The Yamazaki distillery was Japan's first malt whisky distillery. Established in 1923 by Shinjro Torii, spirit first ran from the still on the 11th Novemeber 1924. The buildings stand between Osaka and Kyoto, in the blissful serenity of the Vale of Yamazaki. The whisky distillery is part of the Suntory brand and houses twelve stills of three different varieties. This allows Yamazaki to produce the range of flavours necessary for Suntory's blended whiskies. It is very difficult to source whisky for blending in Japan; there are two parent companies: Nikka and Suntory. Between the two they own almost every distillery in Japan, thus there is little exchange between different distilleries. The Yamazaki Twelve Year-Old was launched in 1984 and stands as the first properly marketed single malt in Japan.

However, one thing that we can be sure of is that there is at least talk of doing this, but nothing is certain. We can probably also expect such perks to pop up in other places as all professions are getting a revamp in the coming expansion. And before your fire burns and cauldron bubbles, just remember that we're not even in beta yet and that a lot of things could change.
Goblins should have a ogre as mount. If you have played WC3 the alchemist is riding on an ogre ( but it is the ogre who attacks and stuff ). You can always dream.blah blah blah
You mention Alchemist and a unique mount, eh? ;) We may well have a surprise coming in the future for those who dabble in the Alchemy profession.
Watch this space! I cannot promise it will be an ogre, though. :P

A Dashboard for Google Docs
Google Docs has recently added an option to save advanced searches. Besides showing the list of saved searches in the sidebar, Google Docs creates an iGoogle-like page with containers that include results for each of your saved searches. You can reorder the containers using drag and drop and select the maximum number of results.
Depending on the way you use Google Docs, the dashboard is a great opportunity to group related documents, see a list of recently published documents, display the content of a folder or the documents shared with you by a collaborator.
To create a new container, click on "Show search options", build your query and click on "Save this search". A simple example of container shows all the documents from the "School" folder that have been shared with you:
The customized views can be edit or deleted from the sidebar. While the dashboard can't be configured as a start page, bookmarking http://docs.google.com/#home is a fast way to access it.

She fires, repeatedly. I had to relocate and reweld the ejector farther back, because in my testing I was hand-feeding spent brass, and never hand feeding a loaded round (safety, you know). The result? The ejector was located just enough to eject a spent round but not a loaded one! (slaps forehead). Lucky I didn't have any squibs - I'm not sure how I would have removed the cartridge. Now, the ejector will properly eject both spent and un-spent rounds. I also had to cut the top cover farther back to prevent stove pipes.
I have to "help" the bolt forward into battery by pushing the "forward assist"/charging handle until it is in battery. It appears that I have some binding issues with the location of the G3 magazine in relation to the feed ramp. I think I need to grind the feed ramp farther down to give the rounds more room to clear.
Honestly, the way the rounds are fed seem to require a great deal of side-to-side motion when the bolt is pushing them into battery. It seems that the G3 doesn't push them as far side-to-side and that makes sense, considering the differences in the G3 receiver vs. an AK receiver. It causes a problem in that the mainspring and bolt really have to push hard to overcome the friction of the bullets. I may be able to help this by trimming the feed lips. I am not sure if a heavier mainspring can be found - that would be nice!
Another thought I had as I'm typing this is that of PBB's experience with the need to trim the rails on his PSL. I may have too much friction from the rails that is making the rounds drag, causing too much friction when feeding.
I am pleased with how it functions and can say that it kicks harder than expected. Of course, that may only be my shoulder's complaining since I was shooting my AK-74 just before I switched over to the 308!

The Walking Dead
The Walking Dead Season 3 Spoilers: Will [Major Character] Be Raped, As in the Comics?
Rape is such a loaded word — maybe even more loaded than murder. The Walking Dead includes brutal head slicing on a weekly basis, and recently killed off a new mother, but if the AMC show goes ahead with a rape storyline from the original comics, it would certainly prove their point about no one being safe. And it would also prove that The Governor (David Morrissey) is truly evil. And it would further prove that Andrea has the absolute worst taste in men.
The Walking Dead has not been slavishly faithful to the original comic series — not even close. The Hollywood Reporter listed a bunch of plot points from the comics, asking showrunner Glen Mazzara if we'd ever see them on screen. For example, in the comics, The Governor brutally rapes and tortures Michonne (Danai Gurira).
"Right now, the Governor and Michonne are just getting to know each other," Mazzara answered in the Nov. 2 interview. "They obviously already hate each other and she doesn't trust him. That's a long-running animosity that we intend to get a lot of story out of. Those things are plausible within our universe but we have to earn them. [...] The Governor-Michonne arc is a long story and we want to take our time and do it right and not burn through it and get it over with too quickly. We love these characters and hope they're around for a long time."
At this point on Season 3, Michonne is no longer in Woodbury; she's just reached the prison group. But Merle (Michael Rooker) kidnapped Glenn (Steven Yeun) and his girlfriend Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and we should see them interrogated on this Sunday's Episode 7, "When the Dead Come Knocking." Merle seems to rough up Glenn in an attempt to learn the location of the prison (and Merle's brother, Daryl). But it looks like The Governor might be the one interrogating Maggie. That has led some fans to wonder if Maggie will take Michonne's place on the TV show and be raped by The Governor. Then again, the TV Governor isn't quite as vicious as his comics counterpart, so maybe he wouldn't be the one to do the deed, if they even go in that direction at all.
Executive producer Robert Kirkman warned in a recent interview that Maggie and Glenn are "definitely not going to get out of this unscathed." We took that as a warning that perhaps one of them could die, and maybe that's true, but it could mean something different for Maggie.
What do you think will happen next? As we approach Episode 7, Michonne is at the prison and she's telling Rick about The Governor, so they should be on their way to Woodbury...

Good multitasking product–cheek or lip stain in a see through bottle, reminds me of a nail polish packaging complete w/ a brush applicator under the screw top. Formula is essentially a rose-water scented liquid in a deep pinky-red color that gives a natural looking flush to the cheeks. Shimmer free, it looks very 'no-makeup', as in 'I just pinched my cheeks' flush. Product does stain everything it touches, so a quick application is necessary: 2 swipes on left cheekbone –>blend w/ fingers —>2 swipes on right cheekbone —->blend. Layers well, goes under or over powder foundation, great for bare skin flush. Works best on oily to combination skin, just make sure to exfoliate, because stain will apply unevenly to dry, flaky patches. Might not work well for dry skin–creme formula blush might be a better choice or moisturize beforehand to help blend the product.
On me the stain last as a blush until I remove my makeup, a favorite product in the summer months–great choice for a day by the pool. Have not used as lip-stain, so no comments there.
Packaging is very not safe for travel, cap is prone to cracking if you try to close it tight–avoid over tightening or dropping the glass bottle.
Our original rose-tinted stain is kiss-proof, see-through color for lips & cheeks that lasts for hours. Naturally sheer & sexy on all complexions…it's innocent yet provocative.

Josh Nicholls
Richmond British Columbia
Eligible for draft:
Free agent signing, 2013
174 lbs.
Prospect Talent Score
Probability of Success
2008-09: Josh Nicholls was selected by the Blades in the 2nd round (27th overall) in the 2007. In his rookie season he played 63 games for Saskatoon recording nine goals and 16 assists for 25 points.
He was also a member of Team Pacific at the 2009 World Under-17 Hockey Challenge in Port Alberni, BC where he recorded three assists in six games.
2009-10: Nicholls second season saw his point totals almost double to 48 in 71 games. He scored 18 goals and assisted on 30 others while also posting a +19. He finished fifth on his team in scoring as a 17-year-old. Nicholls was selected 182nd overall by the Maple Leafs in 2010. He was ranked 199th by ISS and 90th by Central Scouting for North American skaters.
2010-11: Nicholls was the second-leading scorer on a Saskatoon team that had the WHL's best record. In his third season of junior hockey, he scored 34 goals with 53 assists and was +50 with 47 PMs in 71 games. Nicholls scored 4 goals with 2 assists and was an even plus/minus with 6 PMs in 10 playoff games as the East Division champion Blades were swept by eventual WHL champion Kootenay in the second round.
2011-12: Nicholls returned to Saskatoon for his fourth season. He was off to a fast start for the Blades before suffering a serious knee injury in December that kept him out for almost two months. Despite the injury he scored 30 goals for the second straight season – finishing with 30 goals and 38
assists in 58 games – and was +6 with 24 penalty minutes in 56 games. The Blades finished third in the East Division and faced Medicine Hat in a first round playoff series. Nicholls scored 2 goals with 1 assist and was -3 with 2 penalty minutes in four games against the Tigers. He was not signed by the Leafs and re-entered the 2012 NHL Draft but was not selected.
2012-13: Nicholls played for Saskatoon as a 20-year-old; sharing the scoring lead for the Blades with Dallas prospect Matej Stransky. He was third in the WHL with 47 goals and had 38 assists in 71 games; finishing +19 with 43 penalty minutes. The Blades finished first in the East Division but were swept by Medicine Hat for the second year in a row. Nichols had 1 assist and was -4 with 9 penalty minutes in the series. Saskatoon participated in the Memorial Cup as the host team – handing eventual champion Halifax its only loss – and in four games during the tournament Nicholls scored 4 goals with 2 assists and was +1 with 4 penalty minutes. He signed a three-year entry-level contract with the Rangers in March, 2013.
Talent Analysis
An interesting combination of size and speed, Nicholls is a two-way forward who displays some offensive upside. He is able to line-up both at center and on the right-wing. Very thin at the moment being only 186lbs and 6'2 so weight will be a priority over the next two seasons. Not a physical force, but forechecks well. He has developed into a well-rounded forward over the last few seasons; dangerous in all areas of the ice.
A long-term project with intriguing upside, Nicholls will spend the 2012-13 season in the WHL where he will continue maturing. Nicholls will continue his prominent offensive role with Saskatoon this season.
Projection: Versatile two-way forward with size.
Nicholls signed a contract with the New York Rangers in March of 2013.

CLEMSON Since the middle of last season, as so many things veered off the planned course for South Carolina, the Gamecocks proved that the best of seasons are often defined by how a team handles that which it did not expect, the jarring developments that can derail lesser teams.
Last season, quarterback Stephen Garcia was kicked off the team, leaving sophomore Connor Shaw to step in. Shaw answered the challenge by helping USC finish 11-2 and go 5-1 down the stretch without injured tailback Marcus Lattimore.
In this seasons seventh and eighth games, the Gamecocks saw their hopes of making the Southeastern Conference championship game fizzle with back-to-back road losses to LSU and Florida, the latter a 44-11 debacle pockmarked by USC mistakes. In the ninth game, Lattimore suffered another knee injury, more devastating than last years.
Leaning on Shaw and defense, the Gamecocks went 3-0 without Lattimore, entering Saturday nights game at Clemson. But Shaw has nursed a sprained left foot since the Oct. 27 win over Tennessee, when Lattimore got hurt. Shaw aggravated the injury last week against Wofford and didnt heal enough in time for the Clemson game, leaving sophomore Dylan Thompson to start.
In keeping with USCs recent theme, Thompson rose to the lofty stage and helped USC beat Clemson 27-17, for the Gamecocks second ever four-game winning streak over the Tigers.
Thompson completed 23 of 41 passes for 310 yards, three touchdowns and one interception. Shaw could have played, and will be able to in the bowl game, but coach Steve Spurrier stuck with Thompson on Saturday.
Thompson was not entirely green.
Before Saturday, he completed 36 of 76 passes this season for 600 yards, five touchdowns and one interception. His most significant action came in the second game, against East Carolina. He played the entire game for Shaw, who was injured, and completed 21 of 37 passes for 330 yards, three touchdowns and zero interceptions.
Since then, Thompsons only meaningful action came in the second halves against Alabama-Birmingham on Sept. 15 and Florida on Oct. 20. Like the ECU game, those games provided few tense moments. USC beat ECU 48-10, led UAB 21-6 at half and trailed Florida 21-6.
As Saturday night unfolded, it became clear that Shaws cracked right throwing shoulder, which he suffered in the opener at Vanderbilt and sidelined him for ECU, turned out to be among the most important developments of USCs season, but not in the way most observers thought. The shoulder pain did not linger for Shaw, but it did allow Thompson to get valuable experience.
I wasnt nervous at all (on Saturday), Thompson said. The Florida game, I feel like toward the end, I finally got comfortable. Getting all the reps in practice this week, I was confident.
Said receiver Ace Sanders, who had 119 yards and a touchdown: He was exactly what his position said: He was the quarterback of the team. He was calm. We knew what he was capable of.
Though Thompson was far from perfect, he demonstrated admirable poise. On USCs first drive of the second half, he made the biggest throw of his career a 34-yard touchdown pass to Sanders, cutting across the field, on third down and 16. That put USC up 17-14 with 11:48 left in the third quarter. Thompson, a devout Christian, celebrated by running toward the end zone and pointing skyward.
USC never trailed again.
Thompson seems to lack Shaws mobility, but he iced the game with a brilliant sequence in the fourth quarter. On third and 19 at Clemsons 26, Spurrier called a quarterback draw. Thompson took the snap and surveyed the defense. He was expecting a zone, but he saw man-to-man, and his receivers had all the defensive backs blocked. Thompson ran untouched for 20 yards.
Im kind of athletic, I guess, Thompson said with a smile. The main thing was blocking. The holes were wide open. I think anyone could have done what I did.
Three plays later, on third and goal, he hit Bruce Ellington for a six-yard touchdown that put USC up 27-17 with 4:17 left. Just as important, the drive consumed 7:47.
After the score, Thompson pointed up again an image that might become as iconic in USC history as quarterback Steve Taneyhill raising his arms in the rain at Clemson in 1992, the year USC debuted in the Southeastern Conference. The Gamecocks had yet to prove themselves as a consistent winner then. Now, 20 years later, they find themselves 21-4 since the start of last season, because, once again, they rolled with their changes.

Since the New England Economic Adventure opened in 2003, thousands of visitors have experienced its mix of interactive exhibits and activities. In the process, they had an opportunity to learn about important concepts in an engaging way—specifically how increased productivity, expanded trade, and economic growth have over time helped boost the standard of living of most New Englanders. By promoting an understanding of how far we've come over the last 400 years and the many factors that contributed to our getting here, the Adventure also encouraged visitors to reflect on New England's economic future and their own.
In 2013, the Boston Fed shifted its focus to promoting financial capabilities and its approach to working with practitioners, teachers and institutions with an interest in building the financial decision-making skills of their students and constituents. As a result, effective fall 2014, the Bank no longer offers live programs for students and other visitors and has discontinued its New England Economic Adventure program.
While we have refined our education strategy, insights learned from past efforts—including the long-running Adventure program—have been vital to the evolution of our current approach. For more information and full descriptions of our new education initiatives, please visit the Events and Activities page of the Boston Fed's Financial Capabilities Group.

"Lions over and Colts under...........Book it!!!!!!!!"
Matt is a PERFECT 5-0 in MLB the last 2 days with underdog wins of +156, +170, +133, +149 and +165! He went a SMOKING +$17,233 last year and is off to a SOLID +$11,407 MLB start TY! Playing Underdogs is the name of the game and he has profited on 46 of 67 MLB Underdog Double Plays this year! How about another PERFECT 2-0 SWEEP! Guaranteed!
We won with Boston last night as it tagged Chris Sale for seven runs on 12 hits in just five innings which snapped a three-game skid and avoided the four-game sweep to the White Sox. The Red Sox are still two games under .500 at home and they send Eduardo Rodriguez to the hill who has been pretty inconsistent this season. He is coming off a quality outing against Detroit last time out but he still brings in a 5.35 ERA at home. Additionally, the Red Sox are 1-4 in his last five starts following a quality outing in his last start. The Rays have won 12 of their last 14 games against left-handed starters and turn the ball over to Erasmus Ramirez. He looks to bounce back from a poor outing against Baltimore which came after nine straight starts where he allowed two runs or less, eight of which he allowed just one run or no runs. The Rays have won his last six road starts and I expect that perfect run to continue here. Play (917) Tampa Bay Rays

Countering the Sprawl (Attacking from the Turtle)
Ok - So last night I was rolling (no-gi) with the usual suspects, and my training partners kept insisting on passing my guard with the Double Under pass.
A few times I rolled back to attempt a Single Leg, but my attempts were stuffed. (I have no backround in folkstyle wrestling, so I'm sure there's a lot of room for improvement with this particular technique).
Having stuffed my attack, my opponents got their hips low and sprawled out on me, got their legs out of reach, and generally made life uncomfortable for me on the bottom.
On 1 such occasion, I was stuck there for what seemed like a good minute or 2 as my opponent surprised me by doing.......... nothing. I actually spoke up while I was down there and said, "So... you know any technique from here?" which probably tipped him off that I didn't know what to do either. Eventually, he took my back (the only thing my training partners know how to do from here) and choked me, but that's neither here nor there.
So here's the question:
You've turtled, your partner has his weight on you, his legs are out of reach (or for whatever other reason you don't want to work for a Double Leg).
What do you like to do in this situation?
I saw this thread that suggested a Peekout and I'll give that a try next time I turtle.
But that can't be it: there must be other techniques to attack/reverse/sweep/immasculate from there -- what do you like?-Jordan

If they are sprawled hard a sit out is your best bet. With their weight down they will pancake when you are clear. You can roll to guard or pull back to guard if you want.
Before they sprawl, if you have the leg, remember to turn and drive. that gives you much better chances of getting the take down to begin with and not getting sprawled.
And going back to the beginning, the double under pass. If they get double under your legs try three things. Shoulder walk way, scoot as fast as you can to avoid getting stacked. Hook your foot under their body/thigh. And over under one of their arms, near the shoulder with your hands and gable grip. Any one of those will stop the pass before you even get into a bad position.Is Wayne Brady gonna have to choke a bitch?

If its guillotine your in the **** and need to get your body out to the side relieve some pressure. If it is a half- Guillotine guiatine or bear hug you can pin a side that is overhooked and work for a figure four grip on and arm, drive your shoulder into that arm and work for a reversal or submission from that control. This is particularly good for no-gi because you don't have worry about giving up your collar during the transition and can put everything into the side you have secured to reverse and hopefully submit.
You could also move toward him and feint to give him your back but roll into a knee bar or toe hold when he tries mount your back.
You could sit back and pull guard as suggested by Aeso and Tyler if all else fails.

Here is how you can finish a single from under a sprawl. If you can reach one of your opponent's knees, lock your hands behind it and pull it in tight. Keep your outside hand on his knee, and try to block the outside of his ankle (through his legs and over) with your inside hand. Then pull in the ankle and drive forward. If you pull the ankle across your body, you should end up in a side mount.
Here is my strat:
If both arms are around my body:
Post and do what every wrestler knows!
If one arm is around my neck and one around my body
I am very, very carefull not to get caught in a D'Arce or an Anaconda; and
Pivot out and pull guard;or
Reach across his body with the free arm, go up under and over him, then sit out and try to roll him;or
Simply try to stand up;or
Drive, drive, drive!;and
1) reach between his legs and grab his foot/ankle and pull it under him. He ends up sitting down. Now just block the legs and walk around for N/S as you flatten him to his back.
2) eventually he will hit a wall and I can stand up.
If both his arms are around my neck
I am very, very carefull not to get caught in a guillotine; and
Reach over his head with one arm, do this by going ACROSS his face and then looping your arm over his head, almost like you want to get your own guillotine from the bottom, then crank that **** over real fast as you use your other hand that was defending your neck and grab your opposite hand; or
Bend his wrist until he gives up the grip because honestly you are in deep trouble.
Everything else sorta comes from what they do. Are they going to the back? Let them, hook a leg and kneebar roll - if it looks like you have to bail in the attempt go back to guard. Are they seriously attempting an arm triangle variation? Well keep your elbows back and don't get rolled. Are they sprawled so far back you cannot grab thier legs at all? Good - that means very little weight on your head and you should be able to stand up, scoop slam them, and get side control.

Yes, you heard that right.
The pet will cost $10, and you can trade it to other people in game for whatever in-game currency or items you want.
The full Blizzard FAQ after the break.
Unlike the other Pet Store companions, the Guardian Cub is a tradable, one-time-use pet that permanently binds to a single character upon use. When you purchase the Guardian Cub from the online store, the character you designate will receive a bind-on-use item to carry in his or her inventory. You can either use the item yourself to permanently add the pet to your character's collection (consuming the item in the process), or -- after a brief initial cooldown period -- you can trade the item to another player so he or she can add it to one of their character's collections. Note that once the pet has been added to a character's Companions list, it can no longer be traded, so make sure you're giving the cub a happy home.
Q: Will I be able to carry more than one Guardian Cub at a time?
While a character can only have one Guardian Cub in his or her Companions list, you can have as many in your inventory as you like. Please note that Guardian Cub items do not stack, so each one will take up a bag or bank slot.
Q: How much will the Guardian Cub cost in the Pet Store?
The Guardian Cub will be priced the same as the other Pet Store pets ($10 USD). All sales of the Guardian Cub are final -- no refunds will be given once a purchase is made.
Q: Why did you decide to make the Guardian Cub tradable?
Since the introduction of the Pet Store, many players have been asking for ways to get the companions we offer there without having to spend real-world cash. By making the Guardian Cub tradable (much like the BoE mounts from the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game), players interested in the new pet will have fun, alternative in-game ways to get one. In addition to trading the pet, players can give the Guardian Cub as a gift to another character for a special occasion; guild leaders can use them to reward members for a job well done; and so on. We also hope this change will help reduce the number of incidents of scamming via trading for invalid pet codes.
Q: Could I put the Guardian Cub up on the auction house to try to make some gold if I wanted to?
While our goal is to offer players alternative ways to add a Pet Store pet to their collection, we're ok with it if some players choose to use the Guardian Cub as a safe and secure way to try to acquire a little extra in-game gold without turning to third-party gold-selling services. However, please keep in mind that there's never any guarantee that someone will purchase what you put up for sale in the auction house, or how much they'll pay for it. Also, it's important to note that we take a firm stance against buying gold from outside sources because in most cases, the gold these companies offer has been stolen from compromised accounts. (You can read more about our stance here.) While some players might be able to acquire some extra gold by putting the Guardian Cub in the auction house, that's preferable to players contributing to the gold-selling "black market" and account theft.
Q: Are you changing the other available Pet Store pets (e.g. Lil' Ragnaros, the Pandaren Monk) to work this way?
No, the other available Pet Store pets will continue to work as they always have.
Q: What about future Pet Store pets?
It's too early to say how we'll handle future Pet Store pets. We made this change in response to feedback from players looking for alternate ways to get the Pet Store pets, and we're always looking into other opportunities for improvement. We're interested in hearing what players think of the Guardian Cub when it launches, and we hope you'll have fun with this new flying friend.

/ Federal Marketing Order Requirements
Fruit, Vegetable, and Specialty Crop Marketing Orders and Agreements
Marketing agreements and orders are legal instruments authorized by the Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act of 1937 and in subsequent amendments. The Secretary of Agriculture is vested with the power to exercise the use of these instruments to regulate the marketing of eligible commodities -- fruits, vegetables, specialty crops, and milk -- in certain clearly specified ways. Marketing orders help fruit and vegetable growers work together to solve marketing problems that they cannot solve individually. They help balance the availability of quality product with the need for adequate returns to producers and the demands of consumers.
Marketing orders are binding on all individuals and businesses who are classified as "handlers" in the geographic area covered by the order. Marketing orders are distinguished from marketing agreements, which are binding only on handlers who are signatories of the agreements. The definition of handler and handling depends on the particular program. As defined in most agreements and orders, a handler is anyone who receives the commodity from producers, grades and packs it, transports, or places the commodity in commercial channels. Handlers must comply with the grade, size, quality, volume, or other requirements established under the program.
All marketing orders are initiated by producers. Producers have an active role in the development of program provisions and support them at hearings. Approval by a two-thirds or larger majority (three-fourths of California citrus producers) by number or volume represented in a referendum is required before any program is implemented or amended.
For fruit, vegetable, and specialty crop marketing orders, local committees of farmers and handlers - appointed by the Secretary of Agriculture - administer the orders. Committee expenses, as set forth in budgets approved by USDA, are defrayed by assessments on handlers. Generally, any excess funds are set aside in a reserve fund for future needs, but they may be credited to handlers' accounts against future assessments or returned to handlers at the end of each marketing season upon request.
Committees employ staffs to administer order provisions (e.g., collect assessments, assemble reports, oversee compliance with order provisions), and must maintain the confidentiality of all information submitted by handlers. Committees actively work with all handlers to explain marketing order requirements and to advise them on any particular concerns the handlers may have. Also, committees issue periodic instructions - written in plain English - and provide pertinent dates to comply with any required assessment payments, report submissions, or other program requirements. Committees place a special emphasis on helping small businesses that are handlers regulated under their programs for the first time.

Year of publication
- 1983 (2) (remove)
- Stopping power and collective flow of nuclear matter in the reaction Ar+Pb at 0.8 GeV/u (1983)
- Charged-particle exclusive data for Ar+Pb collisions at 0.772 GeV/u are analyzed in terms of collective variables for the event shapes in momentum space. Semicentral collisions lead to sidewards flow whereas nearly head-on collisions have spherical shapes in the c.m. frame, resulting from complete stopping of projectile motion. The hydrodynamical model predictions agree qualitatively with the data whereas the standard cascade model disagrees, lacking in stopping power and collective flow.
- Charged-particle exclusive analysis of central Ar + KCl and Ar + Pb reactions at 1.8 and 0.8 GeV/nucleon (1983)
- An event by event analysis is carried out for all charged particles observed in central collisions of 40Ar + KCl and 40Ar + Pb at 1.808 and 0.772 GeV/nucleon, respectively. Total transverse energy is used for impact parameter selection within the central trigger condition. The central Ar + KCl reaction exhibits a forward-backward oriented momentum flux. The flux distribution of the most central Ar + Pb events is approximately isotropic in the fireball center of mass.

One of Stonewall's key priorities is to promote fair coverage of lesbian, gay and bisexual people in the print and broadcast media – so that gay people are visible, portrayed realistically and discussed sensitively.
The media is an extremely powerful tool - television, radio, newspapers, magazines and advertising have the capacity to educate, inform, include and challenge millions of individuals.
For many gay people, the media provides their first images of gay sexuality – it can provide positive role models, and can help them realise they are not alone. However, the media can also be damaging to gay people, reinforcing stereotypes and perpetuating homophobic views.
Stonewall's survey with 2,000 staff working in schools, The Teachers' Report found that two thirds of secondary schools and three in four primary school teachers believe homophobic language in broadcast media affects the frequency of homophobic language and homophobic bullying in schools.
In July 2010 Stonewall published research into the representation of gay people on youth television. Key findings from the sample of 126 hours include:
Download Unseen on Screen.
Stonewall research (Living Together) found that almost a fifth of people think TV is responsible for anti-gay prejudice and 38 per cent feel that TV and other media such as radio have a duty to reduce anti-gay prejudice.
In 2005 Stonewall carried out research into how the BBC represents lesbian, gay and bisexual lives. Tuned Out explored a range of areas including:
We monitored 168 hours of peak time TV on BBC One and BBC Two: during that time, lesbian and gay people and their lives were realistically and positively portrayed for just six minutes.
Stonewall also spoke to gay and straight people from across the UK to find out how they feel about the way lesbians and gay men are portrayed on TV. They told us they wanted to see:
Stonewall has set up a Media monitor to improve the reporting of lesbian, gay and bisexual media issues by helping people to tell the media what they think.
We want you to take action and let the producers, editors, journalists, presenters and broadcasters know about how misrepresenting gay people affects you, and why they should challenge homophobia.
It's time to tell the media how you feel!
To make a complaint about something you've seen or heard you can use the contact details listed below under Useful links.
Stonewall Cymru's Look Out campaign to improve the reporting of lesbian, gay and bisexual media issues in Wales contains some useful tips and advice about making a complaint.
We need your help to continue our media monitoring. By letting us know what you've seen or heard that's offended you, or that you thought was positive, you'll be helping us with our future media research. Register your comments and be part of Stonewall's ongoing media monitoring.
Stonewall continues to work on the media portrayal of lesbian, gay and bisexual people. We believe that mainstream media outlets can and should use their position to tackle prejudice and celebrate the diversity of twenty-first century Britain.
We work together with Ofcom and a range of TV channels and media organisations to help them improve inclusion and representation and provide an honest and informed perspective on the real lives of lesbian and gay people.
Stonewall also continues to look at potential areas of research into the homophobia commonly heard and seen on radio and television and to aid media organisations in improving the representation of lesbian, gay and bisexual people and their lives.

EverNote is a free application for Windows that lets you create and organize notes. You can enter your own text, copy content from web pages or drag and drop it. For each note, you can assign categories. There are also automatic categories that let you find notes that contain images or notes from an application like Outlook. You can search your notes instantly and access previous versions of a note.
Notes can only be printed or sent by email, as there isn't a way to directly export them to PDF. You can drag and drop notes between EverNote and other applications such as an IM client.
My favorite feature is templates: you have built-in layouts for shopping lists, to-do lists, source code and more.
There's also a paid version with more advanced features like: synchronization with USB drives, search in handwritten notes.
All in all, an elegant application that looks like Windows Media Player (but it has more to offer) and beats the web-based Google Notebook, that is optimized only for web clips.
