Despite their similar career trajectories, Janeane Garofalo and Lili Taylor had never worked together before starring in the Broadway revival of the play Marvin's Room. "But it felt like it," Lili Taylor said, turning to her co-star on stage at the Bell House. Standing next to each other, Garofalo and Taylor seemed like they really could be sisters.
Set in the 1990s, Marvin's Room concerns a difficult family reunion. Taylor and Garofalo play sisters, Bessie and Lee, reuniting after being estranged for 18 years under difficult circumstances — Lee with her two troubled sons in tow, Bessie with the burden of a recent medical diagnosis. Though the subject is serious, the play doesn't treat its subjects gravely, and is frequently darkly funny. Taylor, a seasoned veteran actor, talked about what drew her to the story: "It felt very pure... there's an innocence to it." An innocence, she said, that might be lost if the play were to be modernized out of the 90s. And for two women whose big break came in the 90s, it can feel very comfortable — "Being in that world, it's like, oh my god... if only!" Taylor said.
Janeane Garofalo made her name as an "alt-comic," a scene she simply defined as "doing standup in a place that is an alternative to a proper comedy club. It's sort of stand-up-meets-storytelling." Garofalo's prominent role in that scene launched her into the cultural consciousness in the early 90s, including parts in the film Reality Bites and the TV series The Larry Sanders Show. Around the same time, Lili Taylor was quickly becoming the darling of the independent film scene and making her mark in Mystic Pizza and Say Anything. Since then, she has proved herself time and again to be singularly versatile, appearing in everything from dark comedies to horror films. So what does the woman who's played every role want more of, acting-wise? "I wish more women were in power, it kind of has to start there. We're a ways away from dealing with this bias. My [goal] is just to show all the different kinds of women that could exist. It's not just three types."
In a tribute to the many varied roles of Lili Taylor and Janeane Garofalo, we quizzed them on their own lines. We read a line from a work one of them starred in, and they buzzed in to tell us who said it!
Heard On Janeane Garofalo & Lili Taylor: Returning To 'Marvin's Room'
CECIL BALDWIN: This is ASK ME ANOTHER, NPR's hour of puzzles, word games and trivia. I'm Cecil Baldwin here with guest musician Julian Velard. Now here's your host, Ophira Eisenberg.
Thank you, Cecil. Before the break, our contestant Greg won his way to the final round at the end of the show. We'll find out a little later who he will face off against. But first, let's welcome our special guests. From the Broadway revival of "Marvin's Room," please welcome Janeane Garofalo and Lili Taylor.
JANEANE GAROFALO: Thank you.
EISENBERG: So let's talk about your current project. Janeane, Lili, you star in "Marvin's Room" on Broadway where you play estranged sisters who haven't seen each other in 18 years. This was originally written and staged in the 1990s. Lili, you've been on Broadway numerous times. But what was it about this play that you had to be part of this production?
LILI TAYLOR: Well, I love the Roundabout Theatre, and I'd worked with them before. And Anne Kauffman's the director. And she has a great vision. And the play felt really pure. And it felt like someone could get in there and re-imagine it...
EISENBERG: Yeah.
TAYLOR: ...In a way, for today.
EISENBERG: Yeah, yeah. Janeane, you know, you've obviously done comedy in theaters across the country and the world, but this is your Broadway debut. So, I mean, how was it? Was it frightening or exhilarating?
GAROFALO: Well, you know, the thing is is it's very unusual for me as a stand-up not to be able to interact with the audience. And also, you have to say the same thing...
EISENBERG: Yeah.
GAROFALO: ...On a nightly basis, which, if anyone's seen my comedy, that is difficult for me, as I am undisciplined. But you do it, and I'm very glad that I've done it. I don't know that I would do it again.
GAROFALO: And I don't mean that mean. I don't mean that in a glib way. I'm just saying, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
EISENBERG: Janeane, did you know each other before this?
TAYLOR: No.
GAROFALO: No.
EISENBERG: No?
TAYLOR: But it felt like it.
GAROFALO: We knew of each other.
TAYLOR: Yeah.
EISENBERG: Sure. And then you have to play sisters who love each other but obviously don't have the best relationship.
GAROFALO: Right.
TAYLOR: Yeah.
EISENBERG: Conflictual and you're dealing with a very stressful situation that you're both under. So when you're preparing for that role, are you hanging out and just establishing a rapport or is it save it for the stage?
GAROFALO: Well, actually, because it was such a, like, a condensed rehearsal time and Lili has so very much on her plate - she's in every single scene. And so once we started rehearsing, boom, that was it. And then all of a sudden, oh, my gosh, we're doing it. So there really wasn't time to hang around, which actually worked out well because we're not supposed to know each other.
EISENBERG: Right. It was realistic.
GAROFALO: It was very realistic.
EISENBERG: Yeah. And, Lili, you said this play is relevant for now, even though it was written in the '90s. You know, there are some artifacts from the '90s in the play, especially the phones that all have cords. And some of them are on the wall.
TAYLOR: Landline. Landline.
EISENBERG: Landlines. You know, what are the reasons why we need to see this play now?
TAYLOR: Anything that gets into a family, you could see at any time.
EISENBERG: True.
TAYLOR: And we can always - I feel like I could always reflect back on my family, who I am, where I'm going, all that, it's just - for me, it's infinitely interesting.
EISENBERG: And I know Anne Kauffman, the director, you know, when she decided to redo this play, she didn't modernize it. She said it had to be set in the '90s. It had to be true to that. Janeane, why is that?
GAROFALO: Well, I think it wouldn't be helpful if we had cell phones and Facebook and stuff. We wouldn't be so estranged. So it wouldn't work.
EISENBERG: That's true.
GAROFALO: You know, we would have been much more in touch with each other.
TAYLOR: There's an innocence to it that I just don't think would hold up if you put it now, like, without it being in that time. I just think it's - being in that world, the '90s is like - oh my, God, if only we could...
EISENBERG: Right.
GAROFALO: You know, yeah, oh my, God.
TAYLOR: Oh, my God, you guys, the '90s.
EISENBERG: So originally, this was a movie starring Meryl Streep, Diane Keaton and Leonardo DiCaprio. Did either of you watch this movie?
TAYLOR: No.
GAROFALO: I did, actually. After I auditioned for it and after I found out I got it, I thought, well, I'll watch it. But it actually is so - it's different. And also, just the take that Meryl Streep, who's - that's the part I play that Meryl Streep played.
GAROFALO: I know. I know. The take that she did on it, I was like, I'm just not going to do it that - not for that reason. But it's like, I can't just mimic what she did because that would be bad. And plus, she's not that good an actor.
GAROFALO: She's really not, you know?
EISENBERG: So I have to say, Janeane, when I - I moved to New York in the early 2000s, and you had started a show in the Lower East Side in the '90s called "Eating It" at a now...
GAROFALO: Oh, no, no, I didn't start it. I was just one of the people first into it.
EISENBERG: First into it.
GAROFALO: Yeah.
EISENBERG: It used to be, like, a good try out room - right? - where stand-ups could go and just try whatever they wanted, anti-mainstream in the sense that you could, I guess, talk about your life, you could do whatever alt comedy was back then.
GAROFALO: Right, which just means to me - alternative comedy, to me, just means you're doing stand-up in a place that is an alternative to a proper comedy club. Sort of more stand-up meets storytelling, and I'm sorry to have to say that. But it's just longer-form things without a lot of punchlines and hopefully people find it humorous but...
EISENBERG: Right. Do you think alternative comedy still exists or has it all come together?
GAROFALO: Oh, absolutely. In fact, it has become in many, many ways the norm.
EISENBERG: Yeah. So I - you're right. I just think it's interesting how it - I think alt comedy has become everywhere.
GAROFALO: Yeah.
EISENBERG: Lili, people say you are a versatile actor, but I think that is, like, the smallest way to describe the acting roles that you have done. What do you wish there was more of when it comes to roles?
TAYLOR: Oh, brother. Well, I wish more women were in power.
EISENBERG: Yeah.
TAYLOR: It kind of has to start there. It's - look. We're - you know, there's some problems. There's some big problems. And I would say maybe 500, 600 years at least. You know, we're a ways away from dealing with this bias. You know what I mean? But we just keep chugging along. So my thing is just to try to show all the different kinds of women that could exist, you know, so that it's not just three types, you know, and just to make - to get ideas out there like, oh, I didn't know a woman was like that. Oh. And so the consciousness has just been expanded a little bit hopefully.
EISENBERG: Yeah. Lili, you also have a hobby that satisfies so many of our listeners. You're a birder.
TAYLOR: Really? Listeners like birds? Wow. Yeah. That's another thing I'm trying to get the word out about - birds.
GAROFALO: Yeah.
EISENBERG: So, OK, how did you get into birding?
TAYLOR: Basically, I've always loved birds. And I didn't know there were other people who liked them, too. And it was really through the iPhone that I found out, like, through Twitter and all that that like someone was like...
EISENBERG: Twitter.
TAYLOR: ...Twitter the bird - was like, oh, there's a great bird in Central Park. And I was like, oh, really? And so I would go. And I would just hang back and see these people with binoculars. And I was like, oh, there's a tribe. It's just wonderful. And birds are great.
EISENBERG: OK, so what is...
GAROFALO: Have you heard of the Audubon Society?
GAROFALO: I think they - there's a lot of them, and they like birds.
TAYLOR: Darling, I'm on the board of it.
GAROFALO: Oh, OK. So - OK. So - no. No. That's OK. Well, now you know. She knows. She knows. I just - she said she didn't know there was people who liked birds.
EISENBERG: So there's got to be a universal bird that everyone hates though, right?
GAROFALO: Are you going to name it?
EISENBERG: I don't know. What's - there's got to be a mean bird but, like, hates other birds.
TAYLOR: Wait. I hear a calling out. What's...
EISENBERG: Vulture? Oh, people are...
TAYLOR: Vultures are great. They're the garbage men of the environment.
TAYLOR: They clean up all this dead stuff.
EISENBERG: Blue jays. People say blue jays are mean.
TAYLOR: No, bad rap. You know what they do?
TAYLOR: No. Blue jays give the alarm call to the other birds that there's danger. So when you hear them squawking, it's like, get out, there's something that's going to eat us.
EISENBERG: OK. All right.
EISENBERG: Pigeons. Pigeons. Come on, pigeons.
TAYLOR: I haven't come around yet but, I'm going to get there. I'm going to get there. I hear they're great. And I'm open to them, but I'm just still like - I just can't yet.
EISENBERG: OK. So what is it? You were asking me if I know, but I don't know.
TAYLOR: House sparrow.
GAROFALO: Is that - just a common...
TAYLOR: Just a common little guy we see all over. And I have a problem with them because they take over other birds' boxes and they killed all these little birds I was trying to care of. And I had my neighbor shoot it.
EISENBERG: Gentrifiers.
GAROFALO: This is NPR. This is NPR. How did you just...
TAYLOR: It's legal. They're an invasive species. It's legal. True. It's true. It's true. It's true. You can email me if you have questions and we can talk about that. I'm serious.
EISENBERG: All right.
TAYLOR: OK. Onward.
EISENBERG: This is going to be fantastic. All right. Are you guys ready for an ASK ME ANOTHER challenge?
GAROFALO: Very. Let's go. Let's go.
EISENBERG: Let's welcome Cecil and Julian back to the stage.
EISENBERG: OK. Janeane, Lili, this game is called Did I Say That?
GAROFALO: Yeah.
EISENBERG: The rules are simple. We're going to read you an out-of-context quote from a project that either of you starred in. All you have to do is buzz in and tell us who said it. Did you say it, or did the other person say it? So be careful. If you guess incorrectly, your opponent automatically scores the point. And the winner will receive and ASK ME ANOTHER Rubik's cube.
GAROFALO: They already gave us some backstage.
EISENBERG: What?
EISENBERG: Here's your first quote. What the hell do you think Leona really puts in this pizza?
EISENBERG: Janeane.
GAROFALO: That would be Lili Taylor from "Mystic Pizza."
EISENBERG: That is correct.
EISENBERG: By the way, what did they put in that pizza?
TAYLOR: Domino's.
BALDWIN: Next clue. This dress exacerbates the genetic betrayal that is my legacy.
BALDWIN: Janeane.
GAROFALO: Janeane Garofalo, "Romy And Michele's High School Reunion."
EISENBERG: That is right.
GAROFALO: I wouldn't expect you to know that. She's like high-brow. She's not going to know some of that.
TAYLOR: Are you kidding?
GAROFALO: That's kind of not fair.
TAYLOR: I know that stuff. I do.
EISENBERG: This next one is a musical clue. Julian Velard, take it away.
JULIAN VELARD: (Singing) That'll never be me. That'll never be me. That'll never be never be me.
EISENBERG: Lili.
TAYLOR: Corey - "Say Anything."
BALDWIN: Next clue. I'm bitter. Who's drunk and yelling at a dead woman?
EISENBERG: Janeane.
GAROFALO: I don't know why I did that. I'm sorry.
TAYLOR: I get the point. I get the point.
EISENBERG: Janeane, do you know who said that?
GAROFALO: I don't know what that is.
EISENBERG: Lili, do you know who said that?
TAYLOR: No.
EISENBERG: That - it was you.
TAYLOR: Was it?
EISENBERG: Yeah.
GAROFALO: What was that line again? Was it "Six Feet Under"?
EISENBERG: That's right. It was from "Six Feet Under."
TAYLOR: Dead. Should have known.
GAROFALO: She should get it. She should...
TAYLOR: No. No. No. No. Take it.
TAYLOR: I believe we're even, 2-2.
EISENBERG: That is correct, Lili. Here's your next one. If I was a guy, I think women would, like, line up to go out with me.
GAROFALO: Janeane.
GAROFALO: Janeane Garofalo, "The Truth About Cats & Dogs."
EISENBERG: That is right, yes.
BALDWIN: Next clue. I hope it's not jumbo shrimp because I'm allergic to oxymorons.
EISENBERG: Janeane.
GAROFALO: That is what "Wet Hot American Summer, Janeane Garofalo.
EISENBERG: Yes, that is correct.
EISENBERG: All right. This is your last clue.
BALDWIN: Where are your boys? Couldn't you get Hank out of the mental institution?
EISENBERG: Bessie, we don't like to call it the mental institution.
BALDWIN: What do you call it?
EISENBERG: We call it the loony bin or the nut house to show we've got a sense of humor about it.
EISENBERG: Lili.
TAYLOR: Both of us.
GAROFALO: Both of us.
TAYLOR: "Marvin's Room."
GAROFALO: "Marvin's Room."
EISENBERG: That is correct. That is correct. Puzzle guru Cecil Baldwin, how did our special guests do?
BALDWIN: You both did amazing. However, Janeane took it by one point.
TAYLOR: Let's give her a hand. I can't wait to get that second Rubik's cube.
EISENBERG: Everyone needs a home and travel version. Well done. What a pleasure. Thank you so much. Janeane Garofalo and Lili are starring in "Marvin's Room" at the Roundabout Theatre on Broadway. Give it up one more time for Janeane Garofalo and Lili Taylor.

So, Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang.
There are films that reach your attention but for some reason you never get a chance to watch them. Film watching is a tiring game, there are so many to see, yet so little time. Also, film watching is an expensive hobby - in 2005, the year 'Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang' was released, I was a broke ass student with very little money. In that year Batman Begins, Sin City, V for Vendetta and the third new Star Wars film (which I loved, so shut your mouth) were released. If I'm honest, KKBB was just a blip on my radar. I just didn't pay it any mind.
Well as the years have gone by, the blip became larger. I would hear word of mouth reviews from friends who'd seen the film and strongly recommended it. Yet I still ignored the film. Think about what has come out in the past 7 to 8 years. How could this film, from a director I'd never heard of (who had something to do with the one Lethal Weapon film I actually enjoyed), staring the druggie who also happened to be from Ally McBeal have anything on The Dark Knight, Avengers, The Departed and all those awesome films. It couldn't compete.
Well, that's what I thought before I realised this unknown director got the gig to direct Iron Man 3 and that druggie cleaned up his act and became... well, awesome. I finally watched 'Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang' and it blew me away.
I've already admitted on this blog that I get overly excited about films, but I have watched KKBB three times over the past month alone and every single time it just gets better. I brought up the Dark Knight earlier for a good reason – the last time a film left me utterly flabbergasted and in awe was The Dark Knight. Let's be clear, I consider The Dark Knight to be nothing short of a classic and one of the most important films of the past 20 years – but my heart tells me the very same thing about 'Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang'.
'Kiss' is a lot of things, but if you wanted to distil it into a single element then you would have to say that it is a detective film. But I am doing the film a great disservice by breaking it down to this one point and even on this point, KKBB is a complicated detective film.
Everything in this film is a mystery, no matter how small and they are all important - from Downey Jr's character, Harry, to the minor purple wigged character that get killed half way through the movie. The way all of these mysteries unfold and reveal themselves is one of the reasons why it is such a joy to watch. I've seen so many film that have tried to do the film noiry thing and have failed miserably (I'm looking at you, Brick), but 'Kiss' had my undivided attention from the first to the last scene – truly.
Everything I have read about KKBB gives a lot of praise to Downey Jr and Fat Batman (Sorry Val Kilmer, I couldn't resist – now I feel cruel) and rightly so, they are incredible in this film – but Shane Black should have demanded all of the praise. I have to keep reminding myself that this was his first film.
The single biggest reason why 'Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang' works, why it doesn't implode with so many different genres mixed into its pot is because of Shane Black and the confidence he instils in this film. This film is like that gorgeous girl back in school that knew she was sexy as all hell and that you wanted to sleep with her.
It's that confidence that makes the film hilarious and the jokes stay funny after every watch. It's that confidence that makes the actions scenes exciting and they stay exciting after every watch. It is also that confidence that makes the detective elements of this film work and it's that confidence that makes the puzzles intriguing.
'Kiss Kiss' also struck a chord with me because of its central theme around regret. Like I hinted at earlier, this is a relatively complex film and the characters are also very complex and each of them have done (or are doing) something in their life that they regret.
It's funny, the amount of times I've heard someone say "I live my life without regret" or "I've never regretted anything" and I've wondered what an utterly stupid thing to say. How is that even possible? Have these people never made any mistakes in their lives? Are they saying that they are flawless?
And it is these complicated flaws in the central characters I find most fascinating. Our heroes aren't even heroes and the Princess in distress isn't so pure.
Ultimately, The Dark Knight rightly gets lauded for not only being an incredible film, but because it has had a massive cultural impact. I'm not here to argue that 'Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang' rivals TDK on cultural impact – it clearly doesn't. What I will argue is that 'Kiss Kiss' is as ambitious, as well made and maybe more confident than The Dark Knight. 'Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang' is a very special film which is rightly gaining cult status.
I'm not exaggerating when I say that it's one of the best films I have ever seen.

Bonnie DeVreeze arrived 10 minutes before the doors opened for Bookfest '98.
The Boynton Beach woman wanted to be there before the crowds gathered so she could stock up on her yearly reading.
"This is my bookstore," she said, carrying three plastic bags stuffed with 15 paperback mysteries. "I don't drive. I take the bus, so I read when I'm riding."
Bookfest is the three-day literary festival that runs until 5 p.m. Sunday at the International Pavilion on Flagler Drive.
The event features 45 authors who are scheduled to lecture or speak on panels about various topics. Dominick Dunne, who wrote Another City, Not My Own, is the Bookfest's Palm Beach Author Laureate.
Dunne and Florida Secretary of State Sandra Mortham celebrated the opening on Friday by cutting a red ribbon drapped across the entrance.
During the ceremony, Mortham presented Palm Beach County Commissioners Warren Newell and Mary McCarty with news of $1,068,858 in state aid for public libraries.
The money will go to the Library System Cooperative of Palm Beach County, which is made up of libraries from Delray Beach, Boynton Beach, Lake Park, West Palm Beach, Lake Worth, Palm Springs, Riviera Beach and Palm Beach County.
The co-op will divide the money among the eight local systems.
Virginia Farace, Boynton Beach Library director and co-op chairwoman, said the grant is about the same as last year's.
"I'm thrilled," she said. "Each year, you don't know what you're going to get."
Bookfest is open from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. today and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday. Tickets are $5 for adults and $3 for children 12 and younger.

But since even Mrs. K, with a newborn, the fourth one, I might add, gets the time to write on her amazing blog, I have to be able to post here. And, well, no other photos here but the latest - very time consuming - project: the kitchen.
I like to call it crafty just because we had to put it togheter (Ikea), but then again, not so crafty.
I did, however, managed to make a cute not so little bag and I will have to tell you about the second project with piping. Now I just need to find time to take some photos.

Read this tip to make your life smarter, better, faster and wiser. LifeTips is the place to go when you need to know about Common Breastfeeding Problems and other Breastfeeding topics.
Some mothers find that their normally happy, healthy, nursed baby has developed some digestive issues. The baby might be fussier than normal, have an extreme amount of gas, or strange stools, some of which could even contain a little blood. If any of these symptoms occur, call your pediatrician, but don't stop there. It would be a good idea to begin a log of what mother is eating. If you begin to notice a pattern in baby's reaction when you have eaten a certain food, it could be a food allergy. You might want to avoid this food. If any reaction is serious, make sure you take the baby in to see if any serious food allergies exist and if any foods such as gluten or dairy must be avoided altogether.

Red Lentil Fingers (Mercimekli Köfte)
This dish is made all over Turkey and served as an appetizer, main course, side dish and as an afternoon snack. My first attempt to make this dish was not successful. Neither were my second or third attempts. The reason is because you have to get the measurement of water, lentils and bulgur just right. If you make this recipe and it turns out runny, just put it in the oven for 10-15 minutes before adding the green onions and parsley. You may even use the microwave instead of oven. This is what I did when I encountered this problem during my prior attempts and it worked perfectly.
During grad school, the Turkish professor at the university used to make these lentil koftes when she invited the few Turkish students to her house. They tasted so good. I loved them so much that I couldn't help but fill up on these koftes while other excellent foods were waiting to be eaten.
If you ever feel like having a light lunch or dinner, these are very easy to make. This finger food also can be perfect for taking to a pot luck dinner. Wrap in lettuce leaves and enjoy!
2 cups red lentils
2 cups bulgur (fine grind)
5 ½ cups water
2 bunches green onions (chopped)
1 cup fresh parsley (chopped)
½ - ¾ cup olive oil
2 tbsp tomato sauce
2 tbsp red pepper paste
1 ½ tsp salt
5-6 leaves of romaine lettuce
Wash the lentils and place in a large pot with water. Cook on medium heat until the red lentils are cooked and soft. Usually about a half hour should be sufficient for the lentils to be soft. Add the bulgur to the lentils, mix thoroughly and cover for a half hour. The bulgur will become soft from the moisture in the pot. The mixture of the lentils and bulgur will thicken. Place in a deep bowl and let it cool.
In the mean time, heat the olive oil in a pan. Add the onions and sautee or 2-3 minutes until soft. Add the tomato paste, red pepper paste and stir until the pastes dissolve. Add the parsley and stir for 1 minute. Pour this sauce on the lentils and bulgur. Sprinkle the salt on it. Once the oil cools, knead the contents of the bowl. Mix thoroughly to avoid lumps and to make sure ingredients are integrated well.
Prepare a large plate and place the lettuce leaves on it. Pull an egg sized amount of the mixture, hold it in your palm and press it gently with your fingers. Place it on the lettuce bed. Keep doing this until the lettuce bed is covered with the lentil fingers. You may create a lettuce wrap with the red lentil fingers by placing a red lentil finger in a lettuce leaf and wrapping it. Serve at room temperatures.
Tip: Whenever I make any food that involves kneading or mixing with hands, I use gloves to protect my hands and nails. If you knead bulgur dough that involves tomato or red pepper paste, your hands will take a reddish color. Therefore, I started using regular gloves that are used for First Aid or the ones you see at your doctor's office. At first they may feel uncomfortable to cook with, but they do help protect your hands and nails. I think they come in one size so if your hands are small, the gloves may not fit well. In this case, I tie them at the wrist so they fit correctly.

Hello Sandra,
It sure is delicious. If you try it, let me know how it turns out. Take care,

I was introduced to red lentil koftes by the mother of Turkish student and discovered a new food favorite. I moved away and would like to make my own. I have all of the ingredients except for the red pepper paste. Is it a hot pepper paste? There are no international supermarkets or grocery stores nearby, so can you suggest any substitutes?

Hello Sonagi92:
Since red pepper paste is not available to you, you could just omit it from the recipe and use only the tomatoe sauce. It will still taste great as red lentils themselves taste delicious no matter what.
Another option is to use crushed red pepper flakes or even paprika to give it a red color.
And if you wouldn't find it to be too much work, you could also take a couple red bell peppers, clean the seeds, put them in a blender and puree them. Then, boil them with a 1/2 tsp of salt uncovered until the mixture thickens. Let the mixture cool and there you got a fast made red pepper paste! Also, there are online Turkish stores that will have mild or hot red pepper pastes. I use mild ones as I don't like my food too hot. I hope this helps. Have a great day.

We were a bit surprised when GE announced last September it was acquiring a minority interest in a thin-film solar company called PrimeStar Solar. Well, it looks like GE was more than pleased with that investing move because yesterday afternoon GE Energy (a division of GE) said it has bumped up that stake to become PrimeStar's majority shareholder.
Based in Golden, Colo., and founded in June 2006, PrimeStar makes thin-film solar panels from cadmium telluride using technology developed at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). Cadmium telluride is a material that has gained a lot of traction as the leading player in the thin-film market, First Solar (FSLR), forecast $1 billion-plus revenue this year, and has seen its stock soar; the company has even been called the Google of Cleantech (minus that pesky CEO stock sell-off).
But while cadmium telluride is one of the first types of thin-film solar to hit the market, it does have some weaknesses. Analysts have long pointed out that cadmium can be toxic and could be banned by concerned European countries for use in solar cells. And competing companies are quickly starting to mass produce the next generation of thin-film solar material made from copper indium gallium selenide or CIGS. Just this week Global Solar said it would soon start producing its CIGS-based thin-film strings for customers.
Under GE's Ecomagination green initiatve, which was launched in May of 2005, the company plans to invest $1.5 billion annually in research in cleaner technologies by 2010, up from $700 million in 2004. Last year GE announced that it would use DayStar Technologies (DSTI) CIGS-based thin-film solar cells as part of its research program. Now with this increased investment in PrimeStar, it looks like GE is betting on multiple horses in the thin-film race.

After quite some time, I managed to take part in this month's challenge.
Our host was Korena from Korena in the Kitchen.
The chosen recipe for March was "Tart Tatin".
I must admit that it was something I wanted to make for a long time, but somehow never did make one. We had to make our own pastry, as well! Great challenge, indeed!
I decided to make a sweet tart tatin, using fresh strawberries. The pastry is lovely and buttery AND gluten free!
Strawberry Tart Tatin - gluten free
for the pastry:
125 gr all-purpose gluten free flour
140 gm unsalted butter, cold
¼ tsp fine salt
40 ml ice cold water
20ml milk, cold
for the filling:
adapted from here
fresh strawberries (enough to fill the bottom of the pan)
60 gr butter
100 gr white granulated sugar
2 tbsp water
vanilla bean (the seeds)
vanilla essence
chocolate sprinkles
* Preheat the oven to 190oC.
* Combine the flour, vanillin and salt.
* Cut the butter into small
cubes and add it to the flour.
* Knead with your hands until the mixture is (wear plastic gloves!).
* Pour in the cold liquids.
* Knead together with a fork
until the dough starts to clump together.
* Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface and knead just enough to bring it together into a square.
Do not overwork the dough.
* Flour the rolling pin and roll the dough out
into a rectangle.
* Fold the bottom third of the
dough up into the middle, and fold the top third down, like you are
folding a
letter. This is one fold.
* Turn the dough, so
that one of the open edges is facing you, and roll out again into a rectangle.
* Do this for 5 folds total.
* Wrap the dough in cling film and chill in the fridge. I myself left it only 30min. (I am not very patient!!!), but
if you want 1 hour to overnight is better.
I chose to use a square glass baking dish.
* Butter the bottom of the baking dish and arrange the strawberries, cut in half. Let it aside.
* Place the butter, sugar and water in a frying pan
over medium heat and stir until the sugar has dissolved.
* Bring to a boil and cook for 5 min.
* Pour the caramel over the strawberries.
* Take the dough out of the fridge.
* Roll it out on a lightly floured
surface to the size and shape of the pan.
* Lay it over the filling and cut it here and there to release the steam.
* Bake for 35-40 min, until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
* Take it out of the oven, wait 5 min. and invert it on a serving platter, larger than the baking dish.
BE CAREFUL it is HOT!!!
* Add as many chocolate sprinkles as you wish and enjoy!
A truly amazing dessert! We all loved it and of course I am going to make it again... It is so easy!
Also, if you don't have the time or the mood, buy a ready made puff pastry and you can make it just as good!
I do intend to make a savoury one, as well. I am intrigued by this idea and will probably make it, using onions, potatoes, sweet potatoes....
Great great challenge!
Thank you Korina!
NOTE: I am using gluten free flour, not because I cannot tolerate gluten, but because I think it is healthier. Therefore, I do not pay attention to whether there are gluten traces in my other ingredients, i.e. the chocolate sprinkles are not gluten free. So, if you do have a problem with gluten, just use all gluten free certified ingredients!

US Port Security and Transfer (Part III)
Editor's Note: The flood of letters regarding the potential transfer of six US ports from a London-based company to a Dubai-based company has continued to grow. It also appears that many people were unaware that these ports were foreign-owned before this deal. In the history of this website, there has never been a time when all sides of the political aisle have been so overwhelmingly in agreement on any issue. This issue appears to have struck at the core of President Bush's support and angered long-time supporters, who view his tough stance and words against terrorism undermined by this deal. The president has threatened a veto of any congressional action to stop this deal, and it will be interesting to see how congress reacts to what the overwhelming criticism of this proposed deal in an election year.
- Marcus Woollen, Editor
Dear George:
I am appalled at the sale of 6 of our MAJOR ports to the United Arab Emirates! Are you saying to the American people that America is for sale to the highest bidder????
In a speech you gave to the American people on September 2, 2004 at the Republican National Convention in Madison Square Gardens, you said, "I believe the most solemn duty of the American President is to protect the American people. If America shows uncertainty or weakness in this decade, the world will drift toward tragedy. This will not happen on my watch." I am republican, and I supported you through the debates and through all the trials the media was saying about you. And after saying we are safe with you as president, I felt relieved. However, now with the possible sale of our ports, you are vowing to VETO any legislation that would block this sale. I don't know about everyone, else, but that doesn't make me feel good.
You stood with people in NYC and rescue workers telling them you would do whatever it takes to defend our country. Can you look at them and all the people who lost someone that tragic day in September that this is safe? That the intelligence of America is SO great, you would be able to foresee a threat? If that is so, why did September 11 happen?
"Do I forget the lessons of September the 11th and take the word of a madman, or do I take action to defend our country? Faced with that choice, I will defend America every time. " If in fact, you choose to defend America every time, this port issue will be laid to rest. You are giving control to a country that has allowed the terrorists to use to get to us. More and more every day I regret voting for you. You have the great presidents such as Reagan, rolling over in their graves. You have a duty and a responsibility to the people that have put you where you are right now, to do what is right for this country. Not what is right for YOU or your allies, the Saudi family.

Dear George:
Please rescind any deals selling American seaport operating control to foreign business interests. I daresay we cannot buy any of theirs. The Chinese are already trying to get control of the Panama Canal and the Port of Los Angeles. How much are you asking?
You seem to consider America as being one, vast yard sale. Is your hobby collecting black holes for us taxpayers? How about keeping a little bit of America for our children, and yours?
Age 75
West Jordan, Utah
Dear George:
I have supported everything you have done and voted for you both times. I have really supported your act on terrorism, but I must say that I do NOT agree with you on THE PORT issue, I think this is a big mistake. I have been listening to my friends, fellow employees, and family and everyone things this a a crazy move for you to make.
You don't give an inch on your terrorism policy and I certainly stand behind you but this is complete turnaround. Please reconsider. It certainly doesn't make sense. Why should any other country especially an Arab country take over our ports??
Age 56
Woodbridge, NJ
Dear George:
I greet you with the grace of the god of heaven and earth. Sir i was shock to read in the morning paper that here we go selling off America to over sea government in the middle east. I wonder when you will stop this selling of this country to bail you out of poor management of the resources of this great land. Sir how many more jobs and security items do you you plan to bring us further down. You got this country in a tail spend with the war, just as you made a mess with the saving and loan back when you Father was president. I ask this of you,How does one come to office with a balance budget and with all good sense plunge a nation in to triple debt and be an effective leader. Sir whom are you helping?
Age 56
Dear George:
Please stop this overseas and bring America back yo be strong and independent. Please keep America and the morals that built this country strong. We as Americans can and will be strong, we need to be independent!!

Dear George:
I have never been more disappointed with your choices than to keep this war going on in Iraq. I want our men to come home safe and sound and let the Iraq people take care of themselves. I see no amount of troops will make a difference in their attitudes towards life. They will never stop killing each other and our soldiers.
Also, Port Newark does not need to be owned by Arabs, nor should any other US port. This seems to interfere in my mind with our Security issues. How could you even think to allow this. What's in it for you?
I am counting the days till you leave office, I think you have screwed up our country with all you needs to take on the world.
Age 52
New Jersey
President Bush; I have supported you 1000% to date, but I do not support you in any fashion to sell our shipping ports to any country, especially an Arabian country. Will our country one day be owned and operated by all but Americans??? I Pray not. To sell them now- is forever.
Age 78
Seneca Falls, NY
Dear George:
It is appalling enough that:
- you stole the election both times.
- you and your cohorts mock the constitution and the citizens of the United States.
- you allow our country to be terrorized by 9-11 and over 2500 people die because of it. I believe you allowed it to happen.
- you are a blundering, stumbling,uneducated (your family riches got you into Harvard) idiot.
- you have gotten us in an war so you and your rich buddies can get even richer at the expense of our soldiers and even innocent Iraqi people.
- you are trying to sell our country to foreign interests who in the long run will do us tremendous harm. I am totally against the sale of our ports to foreign interests. I believe that this should be considered a traitorous and impeachable offense.
Please resign before you do this country more harm.
Age 52
Mobile, Alabama
Dear George:
I have backed and took up for the President, but this idea for a Arab taking over our ports is going to far. The American people had better stand up and stop this now! And I am not a person against other countries or races!

Dragon Tower Event
Page 1 of 1 • Share •
Dragon Tower Event
The Dragon Tower is a place used to select dragon heroes. Plenty of treasure is lying around, as well as great challenges. You can use a Dragon Tower Scroll to enter this place at 20:00-21:00. Abner has arrived in Cronus. Talk to him to learn more about the event.
Abner told you'll need to use the Dragon Teleport Scroll and Dragon Magic Scroll in the tower. You can claim both from him. What's more, each time you use the Dragon Magic Scroll will cost you 1 Random Portal, so you'd better have enough Random Portals in your inventory.
The tower was open! You reached the Hero Hall. It's a special place where you can use the Dragon Magic Scroll without any limitations, even if there is a Treasure Box in the room. It means when you're in danger just use it to escape.
There are three ways to leave the Hero Hall and enter the 1st Floor: 1. Kill a challenger; 2. Sometimes a Treasure Box will send you there directly; 3. Use the key received from the box in a Teleport Room.
Now you want to have some practice and used the Dragon Magic Scroll. You were teleported to a Treasure Room!
You found a fancy treasure box in this room. What? Another challenger appeared!
This guy seems strong, so you used the Dragon Magic Scroll again and entered another Treasure Room. You opened the box in this room and were teleported to the 1st Floor! So lucky!
You used the scroll and entered a room on the 1st Floor. Well, another challenger appeared again. This time, you have to defeat this challenger.
Finally, you won! You open the box and received some EPS.
You moved from a room to another, killed all the other challengers, and received plenty of EPs and EXP!
What, you received a Teleport Key! Now you have the chance to enter the next floor.
10 minutes have passed, and the next floor opened! You used the Magic Scroll and were teleported to a teleport room! Then you used the Teleport Key, and successfully entered the 2nd Floor!
You are a brave hero! You try again and again, and finally reached the last floor!
The 6th Floor is the most challenging place, because only the most powerful heroes can get to this floor. Try your best to be a real Dragon Hero!
One hour has passed, and the event has ended. You were teleported back to Cronus, with plenty of EPs in your inventory. What an exciting event!

How to Purge Expired Coupon Inserts!
For me, convenience is the name of the game. I want the easiest path to accomplish my goal. In this case it is to purge all coupon inserts that have expired and either recycle those inserts or give them to one of the organizations that collects expired coupons for military families overseas. What I like to do is to determine which inserts have no valid coupons left in them and purge those inserts first. If there are inserts with more than TEN valid coupons, I will keep those inserts intact until the next purging round rather than take the time to go through and clip each and every one of those coupons, it is all about time management to me. If an insert has just a couple of valid coupons, I will decide if I would purchase the item if it were free or cheap and if so, I will clip those coupons and get rid of the rest of the insert.
I personally do not clip all coupons from my inserts. I order my inserts from an insert service, they come to me in a 2-3 day mailer, so I simply write the date of the inserts on the outside of the mailer envelope, plop it in a file box and use that for my filing system! To read more about how I organize my coupons click here.
Looks like a regular foot ottoman, but inside are my mailing envelopes neatly lined up by date for easy access. I write the date on the outside of the envelope, put them in the ottoman, pop on the top and they are out of sight and nice and tidy. No need to buy file folders or envelopes!
We have a very simple tool on the MAIN PAGE of our website (it is there all the time) where you can plug in the month you have and it will tell you which inserts are still valid. Try it out here, now to see how you like it:
Here is a more thorough method that I use too
I have a really easy system that prevents me from throwing out old inserts that might still have valid, non-expired coupons in them. Here's what I do:
On the coupon mom website, when you click on the insert database link HERE it will show you the SOUTHEAST REGION COUPON DATABASE. This is a list of all coupons that have been distributed in Florida (you can change the state to wherever you live).
- When the coupon database opens, don't search for anything in the search box.
- Simply scroll down to the very bottom (past the pictures) and you will see every available non-expired coupon listed in date order from newest to oldest.
- Scroll down to the very bottom of the list, where the oldest possible coupons are. To the right of that it shows you the expiration date of the coupon. That gives you a good starting point to know which you can get rid of and go from there 🙂
Our military families are limited to doing their shopping for groceries and household items at the Commissaries and Post Exchanges on base, where prices are much more expensive than you will find in our stores in the US. Both the Commissaries and Post Exchanges allow the use of manufacturer's coupons up to 6 months past their expiration date. In
other words, a coupon with the expiration date of January 31st can be used overseas until July 31st. Our military families who are stationed overseas do not have easy access to the Sunday newspapers like we do here, so they are very appreciative of any coupons that are sent their way. Most organizations that collect and send expired coupons overseas require you to send coupons that are no more than one month expired to allow time for packaging and shipping and enough time for the coupon to be used once it is delivered. One organization that does a great job with this is called Troopons – Coupons for Troops.
For more information regarding this program CLICK HERE.
SO what are you waiting for? Time to get yourself back on track! Chop Chop!! 🙂
Make sure you check in on our facebook fan page or our facebook chat page to say hi and hang out with all of your coupon freak friends! We are having a blast over there!

I feel like I need to re-post this from my Facebook notes because I don't want to lose this if Facebook is closed someday.
Little Note for My Daughter
Dear my daughter,
Just like every Mom in the world, I felt overwhelmingly happy when I first saw you in the world. The unbeatable pain when delivering you was gone, a second after I saw your beautiful eyes were staring at me.
Dear my daughter,
I didn't feel any hurt at the first times I was struggling to breastfeed you. I've never ever complained when I had to wake up – many times – at night, whenever you want some milk to vanish your thirst. I am happy to breastfeed you since we're holding hands, as you always seek for something to grab on while drinking. I feel very close to you and, except God, I feel like no one can tear us apart. I feel like, I've never loved someone this much before in my whole life.
Dear my daughter.
Yes, once I was dreaming to have a baby boy. Not because I wanted to see him playing football or becoming a great athlete just like I had dreamed of myself to be. But I wanted him to be a leader, a wise man who can be a role model and become a guardian for his little brothers and sisters, even for his own family in the next phase of life. I and your father really know how big the burden goes to the first child of the family. We knew it very well. We had to set the bar high, we received less attention and we become more independent than anyone else. We had to be tough. We used to be tough. And, since you're happened to be the first child, you have to be tough as well.
Dear my daughter,
I never feel sorry for having an adorable baby girl like you. I've seen you grow up amazingly. I will not ask you to do things you don't like. I will let you free as what you want to become. Because, my daughter, I and your father don't want to see you being suffered because of our own selfishness. We always want to see you smile heavenly, not suffered in your own agony.
Dear my daughter,
I am sorry if someday I have to be mad at you. Just believe that I will not mad for something that I don't like, but for something that is not good for you. I am not going to spoil you, I will let you know when you are doing something wrong, and will give you compliment if you are doing a good things. After all, we are always be proud of you.
Dear my daughter,
Please don't ever hate me because, until the time is through, I will never ever be able to hate you. You are the part of me, you are something that God has given me as gift. I promise not to let you getting hurt, in any situation. I will always be beside you to accompany, and will be behind your back to push you upward, though I may not always be an angel for you. With me, you can share many things. That's my duty. That's why I am here. I am here to take care of you and nurture you to be someone with good mental attitude. And promise to do it at my best, though I may be far from perfection.
Dear my daughter,
I hope these three words could describe it all. I love you. And my only wish is that you always keep in mind that I do.
me and the 9 days old Andhara
Before you were conceived I wanted you; Before you were born I loved you; Before you were here an hour I would die for you; This is the miracle of life – Maureen Hawkins –

Slowness' got nothing to do with my Site Manager, don't get me wrong. He's doing the best he can to progress things as quickly as possible. I guess, building, is much like Aesop's Fable about the Tortoise and the Hare. You can go lightning fast, stop and look at the schedule, and thought you have some time to spare, then maybe rest a bit. Or you can go slow and steady, nice and easy, and finish the job.
Anyway, much of what's happening is making things right inside - cornices, architraves, plastering, water-proofing, and cabinet installation. Much of what's been outstanding the last time we met with our SM has been done. Just a few doors, yet, to be hang, and the portico and under-balcony ceiling to be lined.
We check our "My Metricon" website every now and then, and as per what our SM had said in our last site meeting ...
Fixing is not yet completed, but I'm expecting to receive the Fixing Stage Completion Invoice by the end of next week.
It's going to be very hot outside today in sunny Melbourne (38degC). Hope you all are keeping cool and sun-safe. Have a good weekend all.

'Artist' vs. 'The Help': The Final Round!
As a frenzied awards season hits the homestretch, campaigns court endorsements and stars are everywhere.
It's all coming down to the wire. The Academy sent out Oscar ballots Feb. 1; they are due back Feb. 21. In the meantime, campaigns are working overtime.
DreamWorks' The Help received a gold-plated endorsement when Myrlie Evers-Williams, widow of civil rights leader Medgar Evers, showed up Jan. 29 at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival to present the movie's star Viola Davis with a performer of the year award. The two have become fast friends -- Evers-Williams provided historical advice during filming and testified in an ad wrapped around the Feb. 1 issue of the Los Angeles Times that said The Help is this year's most "socially relevant motion picture."
Not to be outdone, The Weinstein Co. brandished a proclamation from the Los Angeles City Council calling Jan. 31 "The Artist Day" as a thank you for the front-runner movie's contribution to local production.
And the nominees have been everywhere. Moneyball producer and star Brad Pitt hit the Today show and The Daily Show With Jon Stewart. On Feb. 6, while he and team Moneyball were appearing at a screening and Q&A at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, buddy George Clooney and The Descendants crew were just as busy across town answering questions at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood.
