This recipe is an adaptation from Jamie Oliver's version. It was done from memory, so isn't exactly the same. It looked so good when he did it on his Jamie at Home program. It got the ultimate madame accolade, "We can serve this to people."
The Food Network didn't publish the actual recipe, but it is very straightforward and very adaptable. One comment that Jamie Oliver made was that "Mr. Pepper loves Mr. Garlic who also loves Mr. Tomato." I had some visions in the kitchen that I put out of mind as I was cooking.
I made the filling up (except for the basil) a couple of hours before stuffing the peppers and cooking the dish. The oven temp. will be 400F, the cooking time in total is about 50 minutes.
1 Red Pepper, halved lengthwise, deseeded and the stem left on
2 Yellow Peppers, halved lengthwise, deseeded and the stem left on
Kosher Salt and freshly ground Black Pepper
1 Clove garlic, peeled and sliced finely
18 Cherry Tomatoes, halved
½ green jalapeno
2 sweet chili peppers – not bell peppers but something like Italian sweet peppers
2 T Capers, soaked and drained
Handful olives, pitted – I used a mixture of green and black because that is what I had
A Bunch Fresh Basil, leaves picked
1 T Sherry vinegar
3T Extra Virgin Olive oil
6 Sliced Pancetta or Smoked Bacon
6 Slices bread, preferably rustic and grilled/toasted
3 Oz herbed goat cheese
Make the stuffing by combining the tomatoes, garlic, finely chopped chili peppers, capers, vinegar, olives and oil. Season with a little salt and pepper. Set aside until you are ready to stuff the peppers. Letting the flavors combine doesn't do any harm.
When you are ready to cook the dish, preheat the oven to 400F. Remove the ribs from the pepper halves and season the insides with a little salt and pepper. In a deep cooking tray, lay the peppers open side up. Tear up the basil and put in the bottom of the peppers, and then stuff the peppers tightly with the reserved stuffing mixture. Make sure you use all the liquid that has collected in the bowl. Artfully drape a piece of very thinly sliced pancetta over the top of each stuffed pepper. Cover tightly with alumin(i)um foil and bake covered for 20 or so minutes. Uncover and bake for a further 20 or 30 minutes. The pancetta will become very crispy. Note: The yellow peppers cooked a little faster than the red peppers. The red peppers could have done with a bit longer – next time I will bump up the covered cooking time to 25 minutes instead of 20. Probably leave the uncovered time about the same.
To serve, place each pepper on its own slice of grilled bread. I used home made sourdough for this. Dab the top of each hot pepper with a little goat cheese. You can also decorate with some greens (e.g. arugula), but I served them plain – with a glass or 3 of Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc.

CINCINNATI—People are known to hang on to unused or leftover prescription pills, syrups, creams and ointments for a variety of reasons. Some people shove them to the back of the cabinet because they think they might need them again someday, or there's the case of cleaning out your deceased Aunt Millie's household items.
While it's a given that expired prescriptions should be disposed of—time can degrade the compounds, making medicines lose their potency or become totally ineffective—proper disposal of prescription drugs is gaining attention as reports by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service indicate that pharmaceuticals have crept into water sources that support fish and wildlife.
Though the impact is contained to fish and wildlife at this point, and indications are that the trace amounts come from the drugs passing through humans and into sewage systems, there are guidelines in place to help consumers make the best decisions when disposing of drugs.
According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), common prescriptions like antibiotics or antihistamines can be disposed of in the household trash but should be rendered irretrievable by doing such things as crushing the pills and mixing the remains with cat litter or coffee grounds and placing the remains in a sealed container. This not only disguises the drugs but makes them unattractive for consumption by children and household pets.
A select group of drugs that are recommended to flush including narcotics and other potent drugs can be viewed at the FDA Web site.
These drugs, says Bethanne Brown, PharmD, assistant professor of pharmacy practice at the University of Cincinnati (UC) James L. Winkle College of Pharmacy, are considered to be more hazardous because of the risk of harm to others if taken inadvertently.
While there has been some effort to keep drugs out of the environment, such as with the take back programs sponsored by local government and private industry, "there are no laws governing individual disposal and no solid programs in place to help consumers," says Marianne Ivey, PharmD, vice president of UC Health University Hospital pharmacy services.
"The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) doesn't want us to put any pharmaceuticals in the water supply; the Board of Pharmacy rules are that medication disposal should be done in such a way as to assure that they are not available to unauthorized persons. In the meantime to keep them out of the water we are recommending that unused medications be put in cat litter, coffee grounds or other undesirable material. Research scientists familiar with the disposal of medications recommend finding chemical methods of neutralizing the chemicals in the medications, but this currently doesn't exist," says Ivey.
That's why she and other members of Leadership Cincinnati—a nonprofit civic organization that focuses on community improvements—have plans to implement a consumer drug disposal system.
The team meets in May for a roundtable discussion "to try and find ways to help people who have unused medications in the home," says Ivey, adding that University Hospital does its part to reduce the impact on the environment by manually separating unusable drugs into different waste categories for proper disposal.

Many of your distinguished palates are probably familiar with the McPizza. This is when a pizza is covered with Mickey Dees cheeseburgers, french fries, and chicken nuggets:
Or perhaps you have made your own concoction of fast food on a pie goodness. I know a favorite during my college years was the Taco Bell pizza:
Either way, being vegan I have always missed on this gluttonous side show, and for someone who likes junk food so much, it's been a sad hole in my diet. Luckily, there is this guy out in the world who was also pretty into this concept, but unlike me, he didn't let his diet stand in the way of making this priceless meal. With the help of two of the cutest vegan children I've ever seen he was able to craft one delicious looking pile of vegan junk food.
He describes the vegan McPizza as being, "very filling...it will only take a piece, maybe two, to fill you up…and I mean fill. I daringly went for two pieces…a half burger, half fry and a half burger, half nugget...I was stuffed." He goes on to give it more than favorable reviews, and to me, it sounds like maybe this could qualify for more than just junk food? Maybe... "The flavors were all actually quite good. The tomato sauce and cheese go well with all 3 toppings by themselves…chicken parmesan, cheese fries w/ marinara dipping sauce, a pizza burger. But all combined on a pizza…Vegan McMagic!"
To read more about the making of a vegan McPizza check out this post he wrote for the blog/website he shares with his wife called Ste Martaen. This is an excellent down to earth, welcoming vegan site. Plus, they sell what looks like awesome Vegan Gourmet Cheese. I haven't attempted to purchase it yet (online shopping intimidates me), but it's tempting. Please check it out for great recipes, thoughts on healthy eating, and of course fresh cheese!

A TEACHER has blasted a police investigation as "ludicrous" after he was arrested on suspicion of downloading child porn whilst working at King George V sixth form college.
Ben Williams taught A-level government and politics at the higher education college for five and a half years, before leaving in January this year.
The 34-year-old, currently serving as a councillor in Liverpool, left the college shortly after being the subject of an internal investigation into internet misuse.
The college's IT department raised concerns about certain words Cllr Willaims typed into a search engine, but no wrongdoing was found to have been done at the time.
It is understood the current police investigation is linked to this.
Police swooped at KGV to seize one computer, whilst seven others were seized at Liverpool council offices and Cllr Williams' Childwall home.
He was released on bail on Tuesday pending further investigations and vigorously denies the allegations.
Cllr Williams was successfully elected as a Labour councillor in Liverpool in May 2002 whilst working at KGV, and was a popular figure amongst pupils.
One former AS-level politics student, who wished to remain anonymous, said: "Ben was a really well-liked teacher when I was there. He always let a bit of banter fly across the room in the name of political debate, and students had a lot of respect for that.
"He was passionate about politics, always trying to arrange guest speakers, whether it was John Pugh or MEPs from rival parties. It's quite surreal to hear about this, really shocking."
KGV principal, Hilary Anslow, refused to comment whilst police investigations were underway, but confirmed that Cllr Williams taught at the college until early 2007.
Cllr Williams has vowed to clear his name, and says the accusations have come completely out of the blue.
He said: "These are ridiculous allegations. Everyone who knows me, knows I'm not like that. It's ludicrous."
Cllr Williams has suspended himself from the Labour Party whilst the investigation is underway.
A police spokesman said: "A 34-year old man from Childwall was arrested on suspicion of downloading indecent images of children. The man how now been bailed pending inquiries."

Give fair chance to Mallya, stop media trial: Mazumdar-Shaw
Hyderabad : Noted entrepreneur Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw says beleaguered businessman Vijay Mallya should be given a fair opportunity to settle the loan default issues with banks, and maintained media trial against him would not help matters.
Resolution of debt and financial disputes take a long time in the country due to lack of a bankruptcy law, she said in an interview to PTI here and noted Mallya has himself clarified he is willing to settle the loan default case and hence he needs to be given a fair opportunity to do so.
She expressed confidence Mallya would return to India. Pointing that the case was pending before the Debt Recovery Tribunal for some years, the Chairperson and MD of biotechnology major Biocon, said: "It (settlement) does not happen overnight" and said media exerting pressure on Mallya to settle the dues instantly does not make it easy.
"Today everybody is being tried by media…whether it's banks recovering their debts..whether it's the debtors, whether it's the government..everybody is being tried by media…for instant recovery of all dues – each and every penny…which is unrealistic. So, media frenzy is getting in the way of following due processes," she said.
Interestingly, noted industrialist Rahul Bajaj had said, "Wherever there are justifiable reasons (for non-payment of loans), actions should not be taken. However, where there are cases of wilful default, where loans were diverted for other purposes, action should be taken. Catching thieves will not harm the country."
Mazumdar-Shaw, however, said there are many companies which have large debts even though they have not been declared as defaulters. One has to focus on the bigger issues of debt recovery and dispute resolution and also on the mounting debt of public sector banks which is causing financial stress.
The proposed bankruptcy law, when cleared by Parliament, would certainly expedite the process of resolving these enormous challenges (NPA issue), she said.
"There are many debts which have to be recovered. Fair opportunity should be give to debtors to settle. But just being carried away by TV shows, nothing is going to come.
"I think every defaulter should be given an opportunity to settle. If you constantly threaten the debtor that you will be arrested, you will be put behind bars… that's not the way to recover the debts."
"We never had bankruptcy law which is very important law to deal with all these things. I think we have to give an opportunity not just to Vijay Mallya but all debtors and defaulters to try and settle with banks and banks to recover as much dues as they can," Mazumdar-Shaw noted.
Noting that she and Mallya grew up together, she said "I have known him for a long time. And I know that he is sincerely trying to settle his debt. But now he is so worried about the way media has been going after him."
On whether Mallya would return to India, she said: "I am sure he will. Of course he is very worried about what will happen when he comes back. He is very keen to settle."

How are the odds computed? Do tracks use a specialized software for this purpose?
Joined: Dec 14, 2004
For most tracks, yes, the wagering odds are put into the program and are calculated by a computer system, which is often different at every track. When a bet is placed on the race, the odds shown on the tote board are just showing you how much money has been placed in the wagering pool, as well as how much of your original bet you will get back if you win. for example, if you bet the five greyhound in a race to win and his odds show 5 on the board, that means that if he wins, he will pay 5 times what you wagered on him, which in a win wager is usually $2. So, since his odds were 5, and you placed a $2 wager, you will get back about $10.00. On another note, in some programs in events such as stakes races, the odds are selected by a track official, but some tracks still prefer to use the computer odds.Hope this helps and if you need more explanation or my explanation was confusing, feel free to post again and I would be more than happy to help you out! Happy Holidays!
Joined: Jul 6, 2004
Once betting starts for a certain race all the pre-race, known as "ante-post," odds go out the window. The bettors determine the odds by making their bets. In the fifteen minutes or so between races you can see the odds on the toteboard change as bettors continue to place their bets.
What are the "ante-post" odds based upon? The odds from the dog's last race? Is this how the odds are computed for horse racing?
Those odds are produced by a computer system, based on thier wins from that box, thier career record, thier last few races, thier race times, etc. Sometimes it makes sense and other times it doesn't. It just depends on the system you use. Each track usually has its own, however, the stat attack system goes to most tracks in the pre race show and will give you a correct breakdown of each dog, however, it doesn't give any odds. Basically, its just a computer generated crapshoot based on twenty to thirty factors. If this didn't answer your question, feel free to post again. Happy Holidays!
The actual oods are determined by the bettors themselves. Thai is called the "Pari-Mutuel" system of wagering. The gamblers are betting against each other, and not the track. The track, under the auspices of the state, simply handles the money. There are separate pools for win, place and show, and "exotic" bets like trifectas, superfectas and quinelas. The money in each pool is then equally divided among those who purchased winning tickets on those bets. The ante odds are the actual payoffs, once the takeout has been extracted.

Hello my little stressed out lovelies!
It's been a full year of homework, assignments, and projects and as of right now, it is going into finals week. Dun, Dun, DUUUUUN. I am extremely tired and chugging coffee by the pot.
It's okay though. This amazing year is almost over and there's a lot to reflect upon.
That being said, I'm going to go around campus and make a video that reflects upon one main thing students learned within the year. No… I'm not talking about equations or theories, I'm talking about life lessons.
We all know that college is a place of learning academically but we forget it's place where you learn the most about yourself and about life.
Within my wonderful group of friends, there has been recurring phrase "IT'S A YEAR OF TRYING NEW THINGS".So let's put that phrase to the test and let's see the new things students around campus have tried and learned.
If you have anything, you've learned and want to share in this video message me! Any tips or suggestions? Message or comment! I'd love to get you guys involved!

Do you rent an apartment in Glen Allen, Va? As a renter, you are not alone.
Renting has become the new American Dream. In 2012, the percentage increase of housing rentals by single families grew in many states, making it clear that people are moving into the renter's market.
According to Matthew Turgeon from Rhino Media Group, renting is on the rise all over. "We have seen a dramatic increase in rentals. The growth of the rental market has caused a new opportunity for both investors and renters."
The Wall Street Journal confirms that more people are flocking to renting as opposed to buying. In a 2011 article, they point out that home ownership was 69% at the end of 2005, 67.2% at the end of 2009, and 66.5% at the end of 2010.
The thought that these figures are somewhat affected by people not being able to afford a home is not entirely accurate according to the Wall Street Journal. In 2012, the Journal reported that many people believe that the housing crisis is far from over and that renting is the best place to keep your money safe. "I would rather throw my money at the rental market than allow a bank to get richer from me," says Tom Sheer from Livonia, Michigan. "Even if my rent is not going towards my equity, that means nothing when there is no way to know how much equity your home really has."
Regardless of what economic experts tell us about the markets, the economy, and mortgage rates, the statistic simply do not lie. More people are flocking to rentals than they are to home ownership. It will take more than great interest rates in order to turn the tides, and until then, continue to watch as people fight for that right apartment as they fought for the right home only a decade ago.

The abridged version of this campaign is: a group of adventurers who knew of each other came together in the town of Fallcrest, in Greyhawk on Oerth. They were chosen of Bahamut (whether they worshiped or revered him or not) and sent of a quest that would test them to see if they were worthy enough to fulfill the quest that would be set upon them. Through trial and error they continued to grow getting into and out of trouble saving the day just about everywhere they went. It wasn't until they were accidentally thrown across the planes to the world of Fareun by an enchanted Jade Chalice that they found out that they are not the only group of adventures who's purpose it is and chosen of Bahamut, to stop a great threat that seeks to destroy all that is good and right and that threat spans planes, time. and space (ok a bit cliche, but hey I have a life outside DnD too you know). Since their plane crossing was purely accidental, they HAD to find a way back to their own world ASAP.
When they arrive back at their new town jumping off point, the ever popular village of Hommlet ad find a Cult of Orcus operating right under their very noses. After defeating the "big boss" of the local cult and losing two more valued members, they set set off to the Tomb of Horrors where they lose even more party members; In fact, with member dieing and just up and leaving, there was only one valiant warrior left: the ever mighty and sometimes pious Tiefling of Bahamut, Titus The player as well as the Character is the ONLY original PC that has beenthrough out the entire adv. from start to now…is there a reason for this? Who knows, if it is written in the stars, then mayyyybeee.
Tha group has recently defeded Restwell Keep from an evil Cleric and two young black dragons who were brother and sister. They subsequently left the Feywild as part of their continuing mission to find several important artifacts that play an intricate part in the overall scheme of the universe's as well of all good-kind's fate as per the Eladrin named Paelis.
Sidebar During the defending of Restwell keep, Titus mysteriously disappeared. Upon finding Titus near the clearing where they first arrived in the Feywild, bloodied and unconsious, they heal him and he tells the tale of how he was transported via a ritual performed by a long family Nemesis – Sestious Andonaco. Sestious obtained and performed thsi ritual, at the cost of his soul, to bring Titus to him so he may slay him and use Titus' blood for another ritual that would erase the bloodline of Titus' family making his familthe only and most prominent family in the area where they lived. Titus of course defetes Sastious not only distruptiong the plans to erase Titus from history but also by fulfilling the side quest he was obligated to undergo by his drawing of a Ruin card from the Deck of Many Things. end Sidebar
Upon reaching and activating the portal, whoes frame was made up of the five heads of Tiamat, they made their way back to Grehawk but arrived on the other side of the continent near a town name Fehrys. There they purchasd an small home with the riches they have obtained.
They met the town contable Lindon, The mayor Jantzen MEdronna and his brother the town hero Rakin, Jake the smithy/carpenter, and the buxom barmistress Jara Nahele.
One night the contable arrived at the door of the heroes with a map of the area where upon leaving the mayor and town security oficer Kiet plead with Lindon and the PC's to find Rakin who has gone missing. Now tasked with finding Rakin they adventure to a fallen tower. Upon fighting their way down intothe depths of the tower, they find Rakin barely alive and are informed that Kiet has betrayed Rakin, but to what end?

Starlux – Historique du geant Francais de la figurine
November 2013
Roughly translated 'Starlux, the history of the French toy soldier giant' is a book written by collector Alain Thomas in conjunction with Alain Mimoun and Phiippe Guilbert. This is the updated/second edition of the book which was released in 2010.
The authors spent many years researching the owners, sculptors, painters and salesmen of Starlux, with Alain personally owning more than 10,000 pages of documentation on the Starlux company. The book is divided into various chapters a key one being 'Starlux before Starlux', which focuses on the company's earliest days when it produced composition style figures called 'les blancs de Meudon' prior to it moving into plastic production for which it became so famous. Further chapters are a detailed inventory of the Far West, Modern armies and the middle ages, all of which were key ranges. The history of Starlux is well illustrated with pictures of the factory, exhibitions and figures.
The book is written in French but is so richly illustrated that you don't have to be fluent to just enjoy the 255 pages full of images. The book can be bought direct from Alain Thomas (email@example.com) and the price is 60 plus P&P.

Kink Awareness: Kink-KnowledgeableWhat does this mean?
I believe the natural solution to sexual trauma is sexual health. As a Certified EMDR Therapist, I help you to overcome flashbacks and depression. I work to help you reclaim a sense of safety and to regain a sense of control over their bodies. I work with teenagers and adults to change their stories from "What's wrong with me?" to "What happened to me?" As a sex therapist, I support clients who are gender non-conforming, queer, kinky, poly, and live alternative lifestyles. I also delve gently into sexuality issues related to fertility, relationships, affairs, safer sex, unwanted sexual behaviors, low libido and much more.

And now to Cindy....
This is Cindy Coutts and I am so thrilled to be the guest designer for Our Daily Bread Designs for April and May. I've been a very longtime fan and customer of Our Daily Bread Designs stamps. My favorite stamps would have to be the annual scripture release by the design team and I have every single one of them and they are very well loved.
I'm very honored to be a part of the design team for the next 2 months working with a wonderful group of Christian women that I've had the pleasure to work with previously honoring Jesus in all that we do in crafting. Kelley's vision of a Christ-centered stamp ministry focusing her timeless and classic images and sentiments around the Lord fills a very strong void within the industry. Her growth over the past 4 years has been phenomenal and amazing to watch.
The design team has such an elegant and classy style that is personally intimidating to me and I feel like there's no way I can measure up to their beautiful and majestic cards and other projects. I'm a clean and simple kind of gal, don't paper pierce, or do much of anything fancy on my cards. Then came along the Grunge Cross series and that's effectively gotten me off the hook. I can do grunge, so for my card, I went very grunge that's totally unlike the stunning cards you see on this blog. I think this card shows a different side of Our Daily Bread Designs stamps and how you can use them for any style, including yours, so don't be intimidated!
I recently took a class all about inks and their properties and knew that some of the techniques that I learned would be perfect with the Grunge Cross series.
To start with my card, I used some glossy card stock and applied about 25 colors (yes, you read that right) of alcohol ink onto a cotton pad adhered to an ink applicator tool. I then stamped that onto the glossy card stock for the first round. I alternated colors on the ink applicator eventually getting in all 25 colors and blending with alcohol blending solution. Where my sentiment is stamped, I purposely used alcohol blending solution to lighten up that area. I love the fact that Our Daily Bread Designs stamps are on deeply etched rubber so that when I applied my permanent archival ink, no ink went on the edges of the stamp or outside of the image and sentiment where I didn't want it to be. Since my cross and sentiment are stamped in black, I made sure that my alcohol inks were on the lighter side to balance out the card and so that the image and sentiment were clearly visible. I knew I was going to double mat my image and also knew it was lacking something too. That's when I decided to use alcohol inks on another piece of glossy card stock using dark ink because I wanted it to stand out on the card, knowing I'd get a totally different pattern and effect, stamped the cross onto the card stock with archival/permanent ink and then die-cut the image out with the coordinating Grunge Cross Die. I spritzed a wee bit of shimmer onto the die-cut cross, used a heat tool to dry, and adhered it to the main image/sentiment panel with foam dots. I then picked out a piece of peach colored card stock, inked up the cross stamp with Versamark, and used the top left edge of the stamp on my card stock. I then heat embossed with clear embossing powder, let dry, and punched out a butterfly to tie in the backgrounds and the newsprint on the stamp. I ink distressed the edges with dark brown ink, gave it a quick spritz of clear glimmer mist, placed rhinestones down the middle, and then adhered that to the die-cut cross with glue dots. I carefully tore the edges of my image/sentiment panel, since glossy card stock is thick and you don't want a lot of bending/warping, and ink distressed the edges with dark brown ink, as well as inking the edges of the butterfly.
I then used foam tape to adhere the image/sentiment panel to a piece of beige and tan striped designer paper that is also lightly ink distressed around the edges with dark brown ink, and then adhered both mats to a black card stock base. And now we have some glam and grunge. The size of this card is A2 tent.
A few helpful hints while doing this card:
1. Make sure your black archival/permanent ink is dry before you do anything.
2. When die-cutting the cross, tape the die-cut to the glossy paper. Since glossy paper is on the thick side, you will need to run it through your die-cutting machine several times. Remove the cross from the die while it's still taped to the paper. That way, if you miss any parts of the intricacy of this die-cut, you can run it through your machine again without getting a double cut.
3. Spritz the glimmer mist onto the die-cut cross from about a foot away and then use a heat tool to dry it about a foot away too. I spritzed 2 sprays of glimmer mist and waved my heat tool over the cross about 3 times after letting the heat tool "warm up."
4. Use very small glue dots to adhere the butterfly to the center of the cross.
I would like to thank Kelley and her design team for giving me this wonderful opportunity to be a part of the team and I'll see you back in a couple of weeks with a new project. I hope that you enjoyed this card. God bless you!
Thanks so much Cindy! This is a beautiful project and I know I'm inspired by all your tips and techniques on this project. I hope you all enjoyed today's post! Please leave Cindy a little love here and then pop on over to her blog to see more inspiration! Cindy will be posting again in two weeks. For more inspiration from her, please stop by then. Thanks for stopping by today!

Thrift Store Goodies
Second, this lovely embroidery piece. It was in the craft section and is not framed or anything. I know someone must have worked hard on it and I'll be happy to have it in my home. I think it may have been intended for Christmas, but I'm going to hang it up year-round.
Have you found any good thrift store items lately?
6 comments:
Great finds! I wish we had good thrift stores closer to our home!ReplyDelete

Cute finds! We're working on purging right now...not allowed to buy anything else (unless it will help organize), so I'll just live vicariously through you!ReplyDelete
great finds! Oh yes! I do love going to the thrift store. One of my latest purchases was 2 pretty clear patterned glass plates for 50 cents each. I bought them for the purpose of presenting things like cookies that I can give away. The recipient can keep the plate. I've already used one plate for this purpose.ReplyDelete
Aah, that tin is so cute! I found quite the load of stuff at an estate sale last week. A full set of luggage for $15, among other goodies. I still haven't put all of it away!ReplyDelete
Great finds! I haven't been to a thrift store in ages... Pretty stitchery.ReplyDelete

Looking for clever, easy recipes. Whip up a batch of zucchini bread. My grandson loves it with a glass of milk. You can freeze it or wrap it tightly and put in the refrigerator up to 2 weeks. I make mine with walnuts, but if you're not comfortable giving chopped walnuts to your little one leave them out. I love indulging on the bread myself with a nice hot cup of coffee.
Planting my own zucchini has been rewarding. I blanched and froze several quarts this summer, and I love being able to whip up a fresh batch during the winter. It tastes a good today as it did this summer.
- 1 cup finely chopped walnuts
- 4 eggs
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 3 1/2 cups of all purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 1 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. cinnamon
- 3/4 tsp. baking powder
- 2 cups grated zucchini
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
Whisk flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and baking powder. In a large bowl, beat eggs. Gradually beat in sugar, than oil. Add flour mixture, alternating with zucchini into egg mixture. Stir in walnuts and vanilla. Pour into two greased lightly floured loaf pans. Bake on lowest rack at 350 for 55 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes.

When we read about withdrawal strategies in early retirement, the cash cushion is often one crucial ingredient. Simply keep a little bit of cash sitting around on the sidelines, dig into that cash during an equity market drawdown and avoid selling equities until the next recovery. How much cash? Well, the Global Financial Crisis raged for "only" 18 months and the average garden-variety recession should last a year or even less. Thus, even if we assume that the equity market takes a little bit longer to recover it will take only very little cash and very little opportunity cost to achieve this. The whole issue of Sequence of Return Risk is solved! Who knew this was so easy? This is almost too good to be true! Well, unfortunately, it might be just that; too good to be true.
Here are our top six concerns about the cash cushion:Read More »

Man, it's been too long since I've updated. We've been so busy around here...and tired!
One of the reasons we've been so busy is that my sister got married last weekend! A lot of our time and energy went towards her wedding in the weeks before but it was so worth it. It was the most beautiful and fun wedding I've ever been to.
Wes turned one on Tuesday. He's a typical one year old, crawling, cruising on the furniture and wanting to get into everything. He loves to walk with his little cart or holding my hands. He can get wherever he wants, and fast! He brings so much joy to our lives. It's hard to imagine what life was like a year ago before he was here. Now if you point to Neil and say, "Who is that?" he'll say "Dada." If you point to me he'll say, "Mama." And every kid that we pass (no matter what age) is "Baby".
Here are some pics from the past few months!

Issued by the World Nuclear Association
The Future Energy Jobs Bill has passed through the Senate of Illinois, United States, with measures to support the continued operation of nuclear power plants as part of a package to support clean energy in the region.
On Sunday the 27th of November, the Swiss public voted in favour of letting the country's fleet of nuclear power reactors operate for longer than 45 years, based on regulatory approval.
Agneta Rising, Director General of the World Nuclear Association has called on parties to make it clear that nuclear energy will be part of their response to succeed in action on climate change.
Nuclear energy is an important pillar of a future energy system aimed at meeting the world's growing energy needs and avoiding the worst effects of climate change, according to a new report published today by the International Energy Agency.
The Paris Agreement will require ambitious action across all sectors. A priority should be the decarbonisation of the electricity supply sector, using nuclear energy in harmony with other forms of low carbon generation.
Background information on topical issues
Energy reports come and go but every now and then one grabs your attention -for all the wrong reasons. The recent interim report "Subsidies and costs of EU Energy" is one such report. Prepared by energy consultancy Ecofysi for the European Commission, it is intended to inform future European energy policy. It is fair to say that this prospect has raised eyebrows of quite a few members of the nuclear community.
The World Nuclear Association Licensing and Permitting Task Force, a joint effort between the Law Working Group and CORDEL held a major two-day conference in conjunction with the World Nuclear Fuel Cycle conference in Prague this week.
Nuclear Engineering International
A new report from the World Nuclear Association looks at mechanisms for utilities, vendors and the regulatory bodies to work together to support reactor design standardisation throughout a reactor fleet's operational lifetime.
A reliable electricity supply is the lifeblood of our economy and our daily lives. But the essential nature of electricity is not acknowledged by a purely deregulated market. Governments must take action to ensure that the lights will stay on decades into the future.
The Financial Times has focussed on the IEA World Energy Outlook comment on nuclear decommissioning costs, with a headline reading "Bill for shutting nuclear plants will reach $100bn". To be clear the $100bn figure is for the decommissioning of almost 200 reactors, nearly half of the reactors currently operating, between now and 2040. This might seem to be a significant sum, but it needs to be put context.

Mini hiatus (already?!)

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!!
We had a wonderful Christmas with our now toddlers. They had so much fun unwrapping box after box after box. We unwrapped a couple of presents Christmas Eve and then the real fun began at 8 Christmas morning, by the time we finished unwrapping presents it was time for me to start cooking lunch. After our nap we headed over to Gammy and Grandpa's and contunied the fun. The babies got the hang of unwrapping presents but they all had to tag team the same present.
We got sick in November, but thankfully it didn't get too bad and it didn't stay around to long. It did make itself around the whole family even aunts, uncle, and grandparents. I think we have done pretty good so far though. We got sick in November of 07 and not again until a year later, hopefully we won't get sick again for a long time. It is so draining and hard to take care of a sick family and being sick on top of that is even worse. So between being sick and having the fussiest babies in the world this has been a very long month.
I have some pictures to share. I tried to download some videos but it is taking forever and I just don't have that kind of time so maybe next time.

|Friday Practice in Melbourne
Senna consistently stated that lack of Friday Practice hurt his race weekends.
Copyright Williams F1/LAT Photographic
The problem with the off-season is that all of last years statistics are now available for scrutiny and there are any number of stories which I have half-completed because I found myself mired in the statistics which were telling a story all of their own.
This one though seemed relatively straightforward: Bruno Senna said that his lack of Friday running at all but 5 GP weekends hurt his race weekend. This was easy to check out because he did run on 5 Friday Practice sessions at Melbourne, Monaco, Canada, Singapore, and Austin. Therefore the statistics should tell us whether he's right.
If we take Australia where he participated in all of the weekend sessions he qualified 14th and was taken out in the race by Felipe Massa (for which Felipe received no penalty).
Obviously the first two or three races of the year can be dismissed to a certain degree as all of the drivers and teams are getting used to the cars, and if you wanted to follow the media position, nothing starts until the circus comes back to Europe. This would suit Senna's interpretation in that Valtteri Bottas had the Friday car in Malaysia, China and Bahrain.
For the stats:
- Malaysia: Qualified 13th and finished 6th
- China: Qualified 14th and finished 7th
- Bahrain: Qualified 15th and retired from the race.
|Bruno scored a point in Monaco when he had the car over the full weekend
Copyright: Williams F1/LAT Photographic
Over the course of the season, for the 16 races from Spain onwards Bruno had an average qualifying position of 14.8 on the grid: His average qualifying position for the 4 races where he had Friday practice was 14.25 and his average when Bottas had the car was 14.9.
On his full weekend race-days he came 10th in Monaco, 17th in Canada, 18th in Singapore and 10th in Austin; an average position of 14th (13.75), but on the Bottas Weekends his average race position is 10.18.
|Senna was nowhere in Canada after Friday Free Practice sessions which began with a faulty DRS and ended with a crash that damaged three corners of the car and the gearbox
Now all of that is Statistics and as we know there are two schools of thought when it comes to statistics:
- they never lie, and
- You can make them say whatever you like
There is no question in my mind but that Bruno Senna is a good race driver. The 2012 season has shown, statistically, that when his races are trouble free he invariably tends to make up places from his grid position and can fight for and defend points positions.
Bruno scored points in 10 Grand Prix last season, his highest finishing position being 7th in Hungary. His problem would appear to be the same as Mark Webber's, Jenson Button's, etc. He is a consistently good racer but is not a good qualifier.
|Williams and Bruno were running well in Singapore and Bruno was in line to score points before losing KERS with 16 laps to go.
Copyright: Williams F1/LAT photographic
Both Button and Webber have worked hard on the Qualification aspect of their racecraft and are stronger now than they have been, are able now to put a perfect lap together on occasion but these guys are not natural qualifiers. They are as strong as their team-mate in the race and are more consistent, but they are not as quick over one qualifying lap. Jenson and Mark have the experience and practice gained over many seasons in F1 but Bruno is a relative newcomer and tacking his qualifying problems would go a long way to making him a strong candidate for a midfield team.
He was more consistent than Pastor Maldonado last year but it is clear that he doesn't have the raw pace of his ex-team-mate. If he could have qualified last years Williams where it should have been, in 6-10 place at 75% of the races, I think that his consistency in the race itself would have seen him score regularly and perhaps seen him on one podium.
To summarise, his ability to gain places is a prime asset but it will only benefit him when he improves his qualifying to the extent that he can regularly put his car through to Q3 on a Saturday.
|Bruno came in 10th in Austin, qualifying in 11th. Hungary was the only race where he reached Q3, qualifying 9th and finishing in 7th. Copyright Williams F1/LAT Photographic

Sri Krishna Kafe
September 20, 2007
This review is also available on burrp!
For the Tamilian missing authentic veggie meals, Sri Krishna Kafe is a must-do trip that will satisfy you. Absolutely no frills whatsoever but just plain good food served in banana leaves, this Bannerghatta Road outlet is newer than the Koramangala main branch. It is located on a tiny lane (right next to Inscape, the roadleads to Strides factory) right opposite IIM B and is more reminiscent of a wedding dining hall than a restaurant. Basic tables and chairs and a counter where you collect the coupon and pay for your meal form the ambiance and the place is packed with bachelors satiating their taste for home food. You are quite likely to find families as well and some elderly gentlemen reading Tamil magazines such as Ananda Vikatan! Waiters in veshtis and plastic gloves serve food out of stainless steel utensils.
For lunch, the regular and deluxe meals are available. They are unlimited in quantity so make sure you are hungry! Clean your banana leaf and lie back and enjoy your food. There is usually two dry vegetable dishes such as roasted yam (yummy!!) and beans and a kootu or a gravy made with vegetables (such as spinach) and dal. An applam (papad) and a very delicious fried dried chilli stuffed with spices in curd (called more molaga) is plonked on your leaf. Rice is then served and you have a choice of four gravies – more kuzambu or curd curry, sambhar, rasam and puli kuzambu or tamarind curry. All are fantastic so make sure you ration your rice and try each. Then you can finish off with the rice and curds and their truly amazing fresh pickles. The deluxe meals have pulav and raita and varuval or fresh chips as well. Dessert was delicious jaggery payasam. All this for Rs.65 to Rs. 75 per head.
Sri Krishna Kafe is good value for money and an excellent bet for true Tamilian food in Bangalore. Just don't expect frills or sophistication as part of the experience. Parking is available outside the restaurant.

Beijing Bites
March 30, 2007
This review is also available on burrp!
A hipper entrant to south Bangalore suburbia, with its numerous high rise apartment complexes, Beijing Bites, which prides itself on being a new age Chinese and Thai restaurant, is good value for money. What distinguishes it from older Chinese chains such as Chung Wah is that the menu is not overly Indianized or terribly greasy.
The place is quite popular with young software techies who live and work around the area and couples who live in the high-rises. The décor is simple and functional with reddish brow sofas and chairs, Chinese artifacts and red and black photographs on the walls.
The menu is divided into the Chinese and Thai section. For starters, try the vegetarian or chicken momos. They are really good – with that faint zing of ginger. I recommend any of the Thai soups too – some of them are slightly on the spicier side like the Thai chicken and bamboo shoot soup which comes spiced with lemon grass, ginger and red chilli. For the main course, you can try the steamed rice with the vegetable or chicken in garlic sauce or if you are partial to Thai cuisine like me, they whip up a good Thai red curry.
Parking is available in the empty plot adjoining Beijing Bites. Service is quick. A meal for two is approximately Rs.300. Go to Beijing Bites to catch a quick dinner with friends or with your family on a weekday when you are too bored to cook.

There are those usual restaurants where you go on the spur of the moment and then there are those like Grasshopper – which are reserved for those really special occasions that require thought and planning. All I can say is that you will not be disappointed.
Grasshopper is housed in a beautiful farmhouse that combines a chic boutique with a fabulous European restaurant. It is located off Bannerghatta road, beyond IIM and Meenakshi Temple – but needless to say, this off-beat location adds to the charm of being in a place far from all the madness and traffic. The minute you reach Grasshopper, you can feel the peace and quite.
You enter through the boutique which has all the charm of a Greenwich Village store – a painted red door, exposed cement blocks, and lovely designer clothes and jewellery. I could not take my eyes off a ruffled, bohemian black dress – it looked perfect, and pair of red sandals – but all the stuff comes at a pretty steep (I am sure, very well-deserved) price. Jazz music plays in the background.
The outdoor dining area is situated amidst a lovely garden and accommodates about thirty people. You need to reserve a day in advance – and there is no fixed menu – the chef cooks up a seven-course spread – so, when you get there, you don't have to take the trouble of ordering; each course appears in front of you. Do declare your preference regarding vegetarian, non-vegetarian, red meat and fish when you reserve. Of course, you have to trust the chef – but I can assure you he knows his job and it shows – the food is made from the freshest ingredients and tastes divine.
Elegant fresh flowers decorate the trendy circular tables (the furniture looks like it is from The Design Store) and if you are there for dinner, candlelight adds to the warmth and romance. There is a menu for drinks – a select choice of white and red wines, and some other beverages. We selected the ginger lime vodka and it was absolutely perfect – tangy, with just a hint of ginger. Then the meal began – course after course of delicious food – olive and mushroom crostini, figs and goat cheese with argula, a salad of the most luscious pears, walnuts and lettuce with parmesan cheese, poached seabass in lemon and tender veal with a side of perfectly cooked vegetables; and all this with a side of freshly baked bread. For dessert, we tried the chocolate truffle with kiwi and the fig and almond ice-cream – both winners.
I went there for dinner – it was superb – but I have a feeling that lunch in that gorgeous garden will be even better. Prices are a bit steep – Rs.1000 per head, but the entire experience is well worth the cost. The place lets you savour your meal and the laidback, unhurried ambiance combined with the fabulous food allows you to linger and enjoy pleasant memories. Go there for the next celebratory occasion in your life or for a very romantic evening.

Punjabi Times
February 21, 2007
This review is also available on burrp!
Went there based on gourmand's review – and completely agree – pleasant Punjabi ambiance, family-friendly and nice food. Situated right opposite Shoppers Stop, the restaurant seems to be doing brisk business feeding the tired and hungry shoppers. Décor consists of pots on the walls, a mural that depicts a village scene from Punjab and lantern-shaped lamps. The chairs are arranged a bit too close for privacy and there are diwans with cushions against the walls. Bhangra music plays in the background. Service is very quick and courteous.
We began our meal with tamatar adrak ka shorba (the tomato soup) and the murg tikka . Both were good. The tikka was really cooked in a tandoor and had a perfectly grilled flavour. The main course consisted of the tandoori roti and the murg batinda, chicken cooked home-style in an onion and tomato gravy. Again, very good. None of the dishes were overtly spicy – but had the right amount of flavour.
Took gourmand's word about the bathrooms and did not check them out!
Valet parking is available at the restaurant. Go there with your family for a pleasant meal. You will not go wrong if you pick the tandoor dishes.

A welcome addition to the expanding dining options in South Bangalore, Dalfryday (or Dal FryDay?) is a new restaurant serving North Indian cuisine. The décor is basic and simple with uncluttered tables, a neat, partial view of the kitchen and cool Hindustani fusion music in the background. The food is a pleasant surprise – a menu that is a variation of the usual north Indian food, and extremely well prepared and tasty. Each of the items taste different and homemade; no one-size-fits-all ubiquitous masala. Try the Begum Bahaar for starters – a grilled roll with corn and paneer. For the main course, the dhaba murg – melting, marinated chicken in thick gravy, a throwback to college days and nostalgia, hits the right spot with the well-made rotis and kulchas.
Dalfryday is located at A-2, First Floor, Mantri@choice (above Fabmall), Bannerghatta Road, Bangalore-76, ph: 41104111, 26092363. Reservations during the weekends are suggested. They do home delivery and also provide catering services for parties and corporate events. Parking for two wheelers is available, for four wheelers, my suggestion is to park on the side road that is perpendicular to Bannerghatta Road. Dalfryday is open from 12:30 pm to 3:00 pm and 7:30 pm to 11:00 pm, and is ideal for lunch with friends or a family dinner. A meal for two will cost approximately Rs.500. Interestingly, the owner blogs about his experiences on starting and running a restaurant.

Chung Wah
November 8, 2006
There was a time when eating Chinese food in Bangalore was synonymous with Chung Wah. The young crowd could not get enough of the chowmeins and the manchurians and would hang out at the Residency Road restaurant after catching a movie at Symphony or Rex (I do realize I am completely giving away my age with this post!) . Now of course, things have changed a great deal – there are lots of options if you like Chinese food, Chung Wah is a chain and college kids hang out in malls. In any case, I was in a nostalgic mood, and I decided to try out the newly opened Chung Wah on Bannerghatta Road. It used to be a restaurant called Wok and Grill but apparently Chung Wah has taken over the management of this place.
For starters, I tried the chicken drums of heaven, which consisted of around 6 pieces of fried chicken legs – it was as delicious as I remembered. I also sampled the pan-fried momos , a lower calorie option which is available with chicken or vegetarian filling, and it was good as well. Both the starters were not too spicy. For the main course, the Malaysian noodles, a flat noodle with a pea-nutty flavour, hit the right spot. I also tasted two Schezwan dishes, the Schezwan fried rice and the Schezwan chicken in sauce. I did not love either – they were too spicy and too oily.
The bill for all this food, which was enough to feed 3-4 people, was Rs.400. All Chung Wahs are done up in unbiqtious Chinese style – the ambiance is passable. Don't go here looking for a gourmet, fine dining experience. But if you crave some soul food, or a quick takeout, it is a reasonable option. ChungWah is located at #3, Bannerghatta Road, Arekere Gate, I Floor, Bangalore, ph: 41215333. They have branches in all many places and deliver to nearby areas.

Mast Kalandar
November 2, 2006
Everything from Mast Kalandar's cheerful orange and yellow interiors to the squeaky clean ambiance to the yummy, fresh food emphasises their tag-line "Eat Happy". If you are looking for a quick bite to eat and are tired of fried and unhealthy fast food like pizzas and vadas, make sure you visit this vegetarian restaurant. All their food is cooked fresh and made without any artificial flavours and colours.
Parathas are Mast Kalandar's speciality – and you can get anything from the usual alu, gobi to more exotic healthy sprouts, fully-loaded mixed veggie, and a Chinese-inspired paratha. Each paratha combo plate comes with 2 parathas, a dal, a raitha, a salad and a pickle. The food can be slightly spicy but is absolutely yummy. The dal, raitha and picke vary depending on the type of paratha you order. For the rice-eaters, there is Biryani with a Twist, a knockout rice-kadhi combo and rajma-chawal. Don't forget to order the delicious mango lassi to wash down your food with. I have tried the desserts here only once – the moong dal halwa was heavenly.
Mast Kalandar is a very affordable and healthy option for people who are looking to eat out everyday. A combo plate costs between Rs.60-70. In addition, if you want takeout, they do an excellent job of parceling the food – each takeout combo is a thick, plastic thali with separators for the various side dishes. They deliver to nearby areas. Mast Kalandar is located at located at A1, Opposite Ranka Apartments, Off Bannerghatta Main Road, Bangalore, ph:41507172. The service is a bit slow, but courteous. Plenty of parking is available on the side road where the restaurant is located. The place is kid-friendly and spacious and is open from 11 am to 3:30 pm for lunch and from 7:00 pm to 11:00 pm for dinner. Branches in Koramangala and Indiranagar have been opened recently.

28 April 2011
Filipino doctor and terminally ill wife granted Australian visa
A Filipino doctor and his family who had been told that he and his family would not be able to stay in Australia unless he divorced his terminally ill wife have now all been granted permanent Australia visas by Australian Immigration Minister Chris Bowen.
Dr Cesar Sofocado is a resident of rural Western Australia. He had initially moved there from the Philipines to help fill a skills shortage, taking a position at Ellenbrook Medical Centre and applying for Australian permanent residency in 2008.
However, a year later, his wife Mary was diagnosed with breast cancer which has since become terminal. As a result, the Australian Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) informed Dr Sofocado that his family's Australian visa application would be rejected due to Mrs Sofocado's terminal illness.
They allegedly went on to explain that he and his two daughters, aged 10 and 13, could still potentially receive Australian permanent residency, but only if he divorced or legally separated from Mrs Sofocado, which would force her to leave Australia and return to the Philipines.
However, Australian Immigration Minister Chris Bowen stepped in to use the powers assigned to him through the Migration Act to grant Dr Sofocado and his family visas, citing "compelling circumstances" in their case.
The Australian Visa Bureau is an independent consulting company specialising in helping people lodge their Australian visa application.

#MFRWauthor Guy visits #RomanceBeckons for #PNRmonth @thecarphotoguy1
Happy Halloween!
Today we are welcoming Author Guy Ogan to Romance Beckons. He took the long road to becoming an author, has lived a colorful life and brings all that to his books.
Born in Washington D.C. March 11, 1943 I spent the war years at my grandparent's home in Texas with my mother while my father went off to fight. After the war we returned to Arlington, VA awaiting the arrival of my father. I went to school in Northern Virginia until my sophomore year of High School when my father left government service and we moved to Northern California, where I continued to run track and cross-country at Los Altos High School and Foothill Junior College (A.A. degree).
After Foothill I transferred to Texas Christian University, Fort Worth, TX (B.S. degree) and entered the USAF through AFROTC as a 2nd Lt. I spent a little over 20 years in the service stationed all around the world, including Webb AFB, TX, Lowery AFB, CO, Chanute, AFB, IL, Kadena AB, Okinawa, Bergstrom AFB, TX, Keflivik NAS, Iceland, Camp New Amsterdam, The Netherlands, Dyess AFB, TX and March Field, CA. While stationed in Holland I completed a M.A Degree from Ball State University's European Campus and upon retirement completed a second Masters (M.Ed.) from Hardin-Simmons University, Abilene, TX during which I wrote a book on assessment and possible treatments for ADHD. I worked for the Texas Dept. of Criminal Justice as a Program Administrator in their Substance Abuse Treatment Program and as an Associate Clinical Psychologist.
I retired from the State of Texas to care for my disabled mother who had Alzheimer's. Upon her death, I cleaned out their files and found the photograph (see page two of "Immortal Relations" that proved what my mother had said when I was just a child. That is the bit of true family history that stirred me to write the first in my "Immortal Relations" series of novels, a unique set of stories exploring that those whom we might at first believe to be enemies, might in fact be our friends and that those touted as "our saviors" might not be.The IMMORTAL RELATIONS Series
All three books are available in both print and ebook through Amazon and Kindle...

Immortal Relations (Book One)
When Gary Logan discovers an old black-and-white photograph Of his father in Prague with a woman's handwriting on the back, he flies there to investigate where his father worked while in Europe, only to meet and fall in love with a beautiful lady who he believes to be a vampire. In love with her, Gary is initiated into her coven of guardian vampires, beginning a journey of epic proportions.
Exciting, erotic, and full Of heart-stopping action, this debut novel turns human vampire lore on its head, with a symbiotic relationship between the species that deepens emotional connections to astonishing effect. But a coven of evil vampires bent on destroying the guardian vampires and feeding on the humans at will have other plans. Gary's full vampire son helps humans to almost wipe out the evil coven, beginning the ever-increasing relationship between vampires and humans. Probing the gray areas inherent in sexuality, family and legend, the tale examines the very nature of existence.
This second book amps up the action to a fever pitch. While Maggie and Evy hope things have settled down, events have a way of foiling the best of intentions. Death stalks a close friend, but our vampires can help him cheat death if he will accept the offer. His expertise is vital as international events are about to happen that Only this old friend can solve! Greed is at the bottom of so many of histories problems, and this book shows just how greedy some governments, rogue OPEC Ministers and terrorists can be and the troubles they can cause. Who is available to thwart their greed and what about the ecological disasters of the impending failure of Chernobyl 's containment cap and possible reactor collapse at Fukushima, Japan. When the reactor building at Fukushima falls, a possible ''Extinction Level Event" has been predicted! Our heroes will help, if their help will be accepted!
The third in the series continues to rock the foundation upon which typical vampire novels are based. After saving mankind from a war between two major powers before it went nuclear and solving two ecological disasters, our guardian vampires discuss coming out to humans. Seeing a potential for an open relationship protecting humans from evil vampires, criminals & power-mad politicians, a newer member of the good coven proposes they support patriots fighting for humanitarian liberty. This idea for an open relationship seems doomed by negative stereotypes vampires have acquired from books, movies, and recent television series. Now a threat of being "outed" by a reporter looms and the only recourse seems to be the help of a young shape-shifter werewolf. Threats against the good vampires from a Marxist regime forms a bond between the local Canadians and their vampire guests; however, there are new threats on the horizon which astronomers must somehow gain the attention of a disinterested government to get them to mount a response to the threat if life-on-Earth is to continue.

How do I make a screenshot in Windows with a Mac keyboard?
Hello! You have to press
Forward Delete in Windows - Fn+Delete
Print Screen in Windows - F14
Backspace in Windows - Delete
Insert in Windows - Help
If you don't have the F14 key, press FN+Shift+F11
Good luck!
Edit: Here are more function keys in BootCamp ^_^
You rock. Thank you so much!!!
How do I make a screenshot in Windows with a Mac keyboard?
For Windows 7, you can also try using the Start->All Programs -> Accessories -> Snipping Tool. Youn right click on the Snipping Tool and "Pin to Task Bar" to make it easier to access.
Or Run...(windows key+R) and enter SnippingTool.exe
Or you can just press the windows key and start typing Snipping Tools.
Screenshot in Bootcamp
Hi! I have a MacBook with Windows 7 Home Premium on the Bootcamp side. I am trying to take a screen shot on my MacBook keyboard on the Windows 7 side--I have tried every combination of commands on every Apple board, and it is not working for me, nor do I have the Snipping tool. I can do it the old-fashioned way and simply print the item I wanted to share and then mail it to the person, but emailing a screen shot sure would save time. HELP! Again, tried the fn+Shift+F11, fn+Shift+Option+f11, Command+Shift+3 (which brings up the Windows Media Player), and Command+Shift+4 (which brings up the WinZip Self-Extractor). Any other ideas for taking a screenshot on a MacBook keyboard using the Windows 7 Home Premium side? Thank you.
You have to paste the image into an image editing program and save it. Windows does not automatically create a screen cap like OS X does.
Follow this workflow to get your screen capture:
1) print screen (look above to find the right button combo)
2) open MS Paint
3) paste (ctrl+v)
4) save the image
Alternatively, you can use a third party tool like Gyazo to streamline this.
