Sometimes movie trailers inadvertently warn you that a movie's going to be pretty lousy. The trailers for John Wick: Chapter 2 may be delivering that message.
Remember how First Blood was such a powerful, memorable story of a beleaguered man using the nature as his ally in defending himself against ignorant and oppressive authority?
Then, because this Sylvester Stallone movie was such a word-of-mouth hit, they decided to do big Hollywood sequels. What did we get? Rambo! Explosions! Huge unbelievable bullet-fests!
They made a lot of money. Completely forgettable popcorn movies all the same.
Well, after the intensely personal Keanu Reeves revenge movie, John Wick, the trailers make it clear that with John Wick: Chapter 2, the character has been rambo-ized in the effort to turn it into a franchise. The trailer has explosions. Eck.
It's a movie that really didn't need a sequel, because Wick is going to have only one dead wife and only one murdered dog, right? And that was taken care of in the original movie.
Maybe the sequel will be better than the trailers make it seem. But in case Chapter 2 turns out to be as empty as the Rambo movies -- and most of the Rocky sequels, for that matter -- please don't forget how good the original was.
After overdosing on the sequels, it was easy to forget just how good the original First Blood and the original Rocky were. Let's keep in mind how powerful John Wick was, too.
And, in the hope that the trailer is misrepresenting the movie, I'm going to see it this weekend. Because I'm, you know, an American.
When Mardy Grothe was in school -- long before he became "Dr. Mardy" -- he began collecting good advice. He'd write down quotations with their sources. The pithier the advice, the better, until he realized that he wasn't just collecting quotations. He was collecting aphorisms -- sayings. Advice that is expressed in a clever and memorable way.
At first he posted them around his room, but after a while he had too many of them. He began keeping them in files, and now, even though his day jobs include "psychologist, management consultant, marriage counselor, and public speaker," he has a large and growing following because of his books of quotations.
Now, we all know Bartlett's Familiar Quotations. Basically, we use Bartlett's to search for a saying that we almost remember, or whose speaker or writer we've forgotten. It's easy to use because it's arranged by subject matter.
But that's not how Dr. Mardy (as he's called online) organizes his aphorisms. Instead, he groups them according to their form.
The first book of his that I read was Ifferisms: An Anthology of Aphorisms That Begin with the Word "If." You know, like "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."
I also plunged into Oxymoronica: Paradoxical Wit & Wisdom from History's Greatest Wordsmiths. These are sayings that sound like they contradict themselves, like Dolly Parton's quote, "You'd be surprised how much it cost to look this cheap," or Victor Hugo's, "Melancholy is the pleasure of being sad."
But those could not compete with Neverisms: A Quotation Lover's Guide to Things You Should Never Do, Never Say, or Never Forget.
My favorite quotation from this book is "Never trust a man who, within five minutes of meeting you, tells you where he went to college."
My wife and I once spent a very entertaining breakfast meeting with a woman who had inherited a lot of money and was trying to persuade me, as rich people so often do, to donate the game rights to my novel Ender's Game for an educational game she was going to pay to develop.
People who inherited their money have no idea what it takes to actually create something of value. So they think it's no big deal to ask us to give them our most valuable properties ... for free.
Yet I was going to do it. I knew the game designers and we had a great concept going. In fact, I had already sold the novel rights to the game's scenario, so I was going to get paid -- for the book, not the game.
Anyway, what made the meal so entertaining was that this woman was a pathological name dropper. The entire conversation consisted of her finding reasons to mention this or that prominent or accomplished person.
But no matter what each person had done, the first thing she said about every one of them was where they had gone to college.
Needless to say, every one of them had gone to a very prestigious university. Apparently, this woman was not impressed by money, but she was impressed by colleges that only very rich people can afford to attend -- which, in my opinion, is pretty much the same thing.
Yale, Stanford, MIT, Harvard Harvard Harvard, Princeton, Brown (though that seemed a bit like slumming), USC, Cal Tech -- you get the picture.
At one point she excused herself, presumably to go to the ladies', and my wife and I laughed very quietly. "What do you think she's going to do when she finds out that we both graduated from Brigham Young?"
Even though her standard of judging other people was phenomenally stupid, we had to give her full credit for being able to remember the alma mater of every person she considered worth knowing. But ... no, if that's all she cared about, it wasn't that phenomenal an accomplishment. After all, she only mentioned people who graduated from the same twenty or so colleges. Not that hard.
Hardly anybody on her list had gone to the Sorbonne or Oxford or Cambridge, so ... pffft. She was only in the second tier.
Anyway, ever since that breakfast meeting, I have regarded it as a sure measure of shallowness, stupidity, and prejudice when a person thinks that the most important item on anybody's resume is what school was willing to take ridiculous amounts of money from them for the kind of education that leaves you shallow, stupid, and prejudiced.
As I told my kids, "If you want to go to a prestige school, you're going to have to pay for it yourself, because I think you'll get a much better education at a state or church school -- any college with a good library. Because the higher the prestige, the less likely you are to get any classes with the best professors -- they'll all be working exclusively with graduate students and post-docs.
"Go to a big-name school, and you'll end up getting taught by grad students and adjunct professors. Go to a state school or a church school and you can probably get classes from some of their best professors -- and those may well be better teachers, rather than researchers, than you're likely to get at Yale or Stanford."
My kids listened to me so well that the two oldest dropped out of college to pursue careers that didn't need college degrees. Only the youngest got her bachelor's degree -- from Brigham Young, like her parents -- and you know what? I think they're all splendidly educated, because they took charge of their own education.
However, they would never be included in that rich woman's social circle -- which is yet another benefit of not going to one of the colleges she worships.
That wasn't the only quotation in Neverisms that rang true to me.
I squirmed a little at: "Never trust a man who owns a video of his middle school musical." The only reason I don't own one is that consumer-level video cameras didn't exist when I was in middle school back in 1965.
When I talked to Rusty Humphries about this on the radio, I think his favorite quote was: "Never trust an act of civil disobedience led by a disc jockey." Because, of course, the civil disobedience is not for "the cause" at all -- it's a stunt to boost ratings.
I can affirm that this is absolutely true. Reporters only smile in order to get you to say stuff they can twist to make you look stupid or evil.
The only change I'd make is just to remind you that with equal truth, the aphorism could be, "Never trust a reporter." Their agenda and yours never overlap.
After all the weird things Shirley MacLaine has said, I have to salute her for this one: "Never trust a man when he's in love, drunk, or running for office."
Here's an aphorism to live by, from Teddy Roosevelt: "Never trust a man who says he is only a little crooked, and that the crookedness is exercised in your interest."
Dr. Mardy offers one chapter of neveristic overkill, where the aphorisms have more than one instance of the word "never."
For instance, take this World War II quotation from Winston Churchill, who, at Harrow in October 1941, said: "Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never -- in nothing, great or small, large or petty -- never give in, except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy."
Then there's a quote from Scout in To Kill a Mockingbird: "Never, never, never, on cross-examination ask a witness a question you don't already know the answer to."
Here's the weird thing about the way Dr. Mardy cites his sources. He repeatedly takes quotations from movies and cites, as the speaker, the actor from whose lips the words came -- or the fictional character the actor is playing.
Apparently he doesn't know that with rare exceptions, there's a writer who actually came up with the aphorism, and the actor merely said what was written in the script.
In other words, that quote wasn't from the fictional character "Scout," it was from Harper Lee, the author of the book, or perhaps from screenwriter Horton Foote.
Mel Brooks gives excellent advice: "Never, never try to be funny!" Sadly, he didn't follow his own advice half often enough, or his movies would have been better. The reason Young Frankenstein was Brooks's best movie was because Gene Wilder was the master of never, never looking like he was trying to be funny.
That might be good advice at Hollywood parties, or any event where the custom is to be "fashionably late." But when my wife and I give people an invitation to our home or to a restaurant, the time stated is when we expect to see them.
Five minutes early is perfectly acceptable -- how else can you be sure to arrive on time? Five minutes late is understandable.
But if you come "fashionably late," your plate is no longer on the table and we don't have a chair for you. You also won't be on the list for next time, unless you're a blood relative. So at our house, if you're first to arrive, we're glad to talk to you while we do the last-minute preparations.
Publisher Michael Dirda, in "Book by Book," gave this literary advice: "Never ever take Remembrance of Things Past, War and Peace, or The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire on a summer vacation."
Skater Peggy Fleming said, "After I won the Olympics, my mom used to tell me, 'Always believe in yourself -- but never, ever believe your own PR.'" There's nothing sadder than the high achiever who believes he's the genius that his agent or his publicist claims he is.
I gave you a lot of examples, but believe me, all of Dr. Bardy's books are so full of really good and interesting aphorisms that a list like the one I just gave is only scratching the surface.
The only danger in reading one of his quotation collections comes from reading it in bed when your spouse is reading something else. It's too tempting to read "just one" aphorism aloud. And then another. And another.
You may find yourself sleeping alone.
It's pretty daring for a game-design company to bring out a deck of cards under the title, The Game. The sheer arrogance of it! All other games are just games; this one is the game?
What intrigued my wife and me (please note: not "my wife and I") was that on the box, it says that it's for one to five players.
That's right. This game makes a good solitaire game -- and, while it is probably not the game, it's a very enjoyable game in which all the players try to cooperate to beat the deck.
What you have are a set of cards numbered from 2 to 99, plus two cards labeled "1" and two labeled "100." You lay out those four terminal cards, and then play from your hands by laying down cards in descending order from 100 and ascending order from 1.
The goal (which is very hard to achieve) is to run out the deck. What makes it tricky is that each player must play at least two cards in each turn -- but they have to play a card lower than the last card on a descending pile, or higher than the last card on an ascending one.
Obviously, you want to play a card as close in value to the last card played as you can, so that there's plenty of room for other players to put down lower or higher numbers after you. You don't want to play a 20 on a descending stack whose lowest card is 50 -- that cuts out all the numbers between 20 and 50.
Yet sometimes you're faced with choices like that -- either play a 20 on a 50, or a 90 on an ascending pile that's only at 45.
Fortunately, there's a quirky rule that sometimes allows you to move a pile back exactly ten numbers, allowing more room for sequential numbers to be played after all.
I have to say, it's really fun to all be working together, jointly bemoaning fate when a player has to put down a terrible card because every other card in their hand is worse. And sharing the thrill when the luck of the draw allows a player to put down a tight sequence, like 42, 45, 46, 49, 55.
The game ends when nobody can make a legal play. If you're extraordinarily unlucky (or you have players who don't yet understand the game), you can reach that point with twenty or more cards left on the draw pile. You count it as a win if the game ends with ten or fewer cards left unplayed.
And if you end because nobody has any cards left to play, and the draw pile is exhausted, then you have beaten the deck -- a miraculous total victory.
The game takes about twenty minutes to play -- because no matter how many players you have, you're working with the same 98 cards. There are no suits, no tricks, no trumps -- so it really can be played by anyone from age eight on up.
It's a game you can play just before bedtime. Or you can play it over and over and over again for hours at the beach or during the holidays. And if you're the only one who wants to play at a particular time ... you can.
It's called The Game, from IDW Games.
John McWhorter, the best explainer of linguistics ever -- a hard thing to achieve in a world that already includes Steven Pinker -- has come out with a wonderful book that might help people calm down about the irritating things that other people do when they talk.
Words on the Move: Why English Won't -- and Can't -- Sit Still (Like, Literally) takes on a lot of people's complaints about other people's English and points out that there's not only nothing wrong with the way they speak, but also that because language changes, your annoyance probably means you're being left behind.
For instance, take "literally" used as an intensifier rather than, er, literally. Compare it with what has happened with words like actually, really, totally, and very.
"Actually" now means "really" instead of the original meaning "right now"; "really" now often means something more like "extremely" than "in reality"; "totally" means "even though you think not" as in "He's totally going to dump her, you know?"; and "very" has completely lost all the connotations of truthfulness that were there when the word was still pronounced "verily."
Most of us are perfectly content with actually, really, and very, though totally can be annoying because annoying people use it so much. Literally has been "misused" for more than a century, and it's time to just recognize that the meaning has changed to "it felt to me as if." As in, "I was literally dying" or "He literally threw up on everything."
It's like the word unique. Only a twit now insists that you can only use the word to refer to something that is literally one of a kind. How many times would we even use the word, if that were its only possible meaning? It now means "very unusual in a positive way," and something can indeed be more unique than something else.
Then there are annoyances, like when teenage girls (especially) pepper sentences with random instances of "like": "I was, like, so bummed about the way that he, like, dumped me by text. I mean, like, it's a phone, so if he could text, he could, like, call me, right?"
In this case, like is not supposed to convey meaning. It's a way of checking to make sure the listener is on the same wavelength as the speaker.
Same thing with "you know." You insert it -- perhaps too often -- so that you don't seem to be bossing someone or assuming that they're ignorant. The words are doing an important job in the sentence.
Modal Pragmatic Markers (MPMs) aren't there for meaning. They're not semantic. They're present to smooth the conversation.
Like LOL in emails and texts. It now has nothing to do with "Laughing out loud." For that, we use ROFL or LMAO. LOL is now a general smoother and softener, carrying the message, "Please don't take this as some kind of attack. Gently, gently."
Another habit of (mostly) teenage girls is uptalk -- making declarations with the rising pitch of a question. "So I'm driving to Weaver and I'm stopped at a red light? And this guy behind me starts to honk? I mean, give me a second to push my magic light-changing button first, right?"
All that questioning when you aren't really asking a question is an MPM that serves to check in with the listeners: Is this how you see it, too?
Such terms and tactics McWhorter groups in four categories to which he assigned names that spell FACE. Factuality (for real!), Acknowledgment (I hear you!), Counterexpectation (much to my surprise), and Easing (no worries). In fact, some of these MPMs serve all four functions at once.
Anybody who begins sentences with "Well" or "So" -- which are just as meaningless as interjected "like" -- really shouldn't complain about other people using words without meanings attached.
McWhorter points out that all languages have MPMs -- words and sounds that carry no meaning, but which lubricate conversation. And as we began to use writing, not for formal letters, but for jotted-down conversations as in emails, online forums, and texting, we found that we couldn't function without equivalent MPMs in our writing.
Just because such things don't belong in formal writing -- you don't want a lot of "like" and "literally" in the company's annual report, or even in the Sunday School announcement flier -- doesn't mean that they're "wrong" in spoken and written conversation.
Since it's always a pleasure to read anything McWhorter writes -- I mean, he not only studies language, he also knows how to use it, literally, you know? -- I can whole-heartedly recommend this book.
And even if, after reading it, you're still annoyed by people who can't get through a story without thirty-eight repetitions of "like" or "you know," you'll still be a little less stressed out ... and avoiding that stress might add years to your life.
That's right, I'm saying Words on the Move can save your life. Why don't you already own it? Why haven't you already read it? It'll be the best-tasting medicine, the easiest therapy you ever had.
I just finished listening to the audiobook of Anthony Everitt's book The Rise of Athens: The Story of the World's Greatest Civilization, read by Michael Page. It was a thorough yet relatively brief retelling of the whole history of Athens and, along with it, the Greek and Persian world as it affected Athens.
I know, I know, the greatness of ancient Athens ended more than two thousand years ago -- a hundred years before the people of Athens themselves noticed that their great days were over. Why does it matter to us today?
One reason is that Athens gave rise to -- indeed, created -- the whole Western system of thought and action that we are still a part of. The founders of the United States were keenly aware of Greek civilization, which meant (and means) the achievements and history of Athens.
They wanted to emulate and learn from the Greeks -- including a strong aversion to "democracy," direct self-rule by the citizenry, because the people could so easily be deceived and whipped up into a frenzy by demagogues who, whether cynical or sincere, mastered the art of manipulation.
We might have thought we saw democracy at its worst in the Twitter War we called an election campaign in 2016, but no, it took the actual inauguration of Donald Trump to show us what the mob that killed Socrates looked like -- in the hate-filled rhetoric, the death threats, the deliberate lies passed off as news, the mob violence to suppress free speech at, for instance, Berkeley.
At least, that was what kept going through my mind as I listened to Everitt's account of Athens in its glory days, and Athens in decline. He didn't make any contemporary comparisons, beyond the most obvious references to representative government as opposed to democracy. But it was clear as I listened to the book that the decline of Athens was already present, already happening, when Athens reached the peak of its power and influence.
When, as a junior high student, I read Plutarch's Lives of Solon and Lycurgus -- the near-legendary founders of Athenian democracy and Spartan militarism -- I came away with the impression that Solon's system was, in fact, the beginning of Athenian democracy.
The Rise of Athens reminded me that this was far from the truth -- it took a tyrant to break the power of the oligarchs many years later, and Athenian democracy, when it finally came into being, was an experiment that could have failed, and eventually did, precisely because it's impossible to carry out a coherent foreign policy when that policy swings every which way with every wind of democratic fervor.
We're relearning that same lesson ourselves, as we watch Donald Trump duplicating all of Obama's foreign policy mistakes -- repudiating everything done by his predecessors, making promises we can't, won't, or shouldn't keep, and revealing, as Obama did, a complete ignorance of history, of law, and of other nations and cultures.
I'm amused by "conservative" applause for Trump's government-by-fiat, which is exactly as destructive of the Constitution as Obama's was, while the far right (Hi, Mr. Hannity!) ignorantly demands that the Republican Congress act right now -- forgetting (or not caring) that all the techniques that Republicans used to block Obama are now being used by Democrats to block Trump.
In other words, both of the insane "philosophies" that feel themselves entitled to govern all their own way seem to think that America is, or should be, a democracy -- but one in which only their team gets to vote. Then changes in the law would be instantaneous. Snapchat government.
Except that in the real world, bad government decisions don't just disappear after a while. Their effects continue long afterward.
For instance, Trump is talking and acting as if he thought he had inherited the military developed under George W. Bush's presidency. But no. He has a military crippled by Obama's starvation diet and his irresolute and vacillating policies, and so Trump is carrying a tiny stick while talking as if he could brush aside any enemy. This is one road to disaster.
On one policy, Trump and Obama are identical: They both treated our best allies and trading partners with contempt. They both showed America at its unreliable, ignorant, bullying worst.
So as I listened to the story of Athens, I was saddened to realize that America reached its greatness with the same suddenness as Athens -- and that we, by stupid decisions buttressed by lies and propaganda, are throwing away that greatness just as Athens did.
The real difference is that I'm not sure whether America has anything like the cultural achievements that have kept the memory, reputation, and influence of Athens alive for two millennia after they dashed themselves to pieces on the rock of history.
Our American experiment reached its greatness (its Marathon) with World War I, and reached its pinnacle (Salamis) with World War II. And, like Athens, we ran a major empire for a while by coasting on those achievements: We saved the world from the Evil Empire (in Athens's case, the Persians) but then gave rivals all kinds of reasons and causes to resent and oppose us.
We're still in that process, as Trump, instead of governing in a statesmanlike, measured way, is bullying and blustering, as if saying "we're number one" and shoving people on the playground could function as a diplomatic, political, and military policy.
Meanwhile, his opponents are even worse bullies and liars than he is. We don't even have anybody of the stature of the demagogue Demosthenes -- though maybe that gives us hope that without such a self-destructive leader at the helm, we won't grind ourselves to pieces against the rocky shore of history.
Look, The Rise of Athenian Democracy is really about ancient Athens, and when you've read this well-written, clear, thorough account, you'll have as good a perspective on the first great democracy as you can hope for. The book is interesting from beginning to end because Everitt balances stories with facts so that it's easy to keep track of all the players.
But the truer title would be The Rise and Fall of Athenian Democracy, and at the end, the story doesn't become a tragedy as much as a farce, with people running around hitting each other with sticks while the house burns down around them. How could I not compare the end of Athens with our own era, when both sides have contempt for the Constitution, democracy, and the rule of law?
Trump is not as bad as the Left is painting him, because he's not a supernatural monster of evil. He's a perfectly ordinary clown of self-love, the perfect outgrowth of the whole self-esteem movement. He's the child who has no idea how to deal with criticism because he's never heard (or listened to) any -- just like his equally self-adoring predecessor.
Doesn't it make you long for the man who is likely to go down in history as America's last competent president, George W. Bush? He was a grown-up who surrounded himself with, and listened to, people who knew more than he did.
Whereas his two successors both talk and act as if Muhammad Ali's voice were inside their heads, constantly crowing "I am the greatest." Except that neither of them knew or knows what to do with their hands in the ring.
So we are already living in post-Constitutional America, while the people who are destroying that Constitution all claim to be its protectors.
All you Trumpicles who are criticizing the Republican Congress for not having obeyed Trump's absurd edicts with sufficient alacrity: If Congress obeys the President and enacts legislation so quickly that there has been no chance for discussion and compromise, what do you get? Obamacare -- which was rammed through exactly as you want Trump's incoherent program to be rammed through.
Look at the Constitution again, and remember who is supposed to make the laws. Look at history, and see how the best and longest-lasting changes in policy and law were created.
When all else fails, Republicans, why not try the Constitution? You might as well -- the Democrats aren't using it.

The 2010 Saab 9-3 is available and the final price is £4500 .I am the second owner and i have all documents .This car is in excellent working conditions, slightly used in 100% working and looking conditions,ONLY 41,000 miles,no scratches or dents, no hidden defects. HPI clear. It has full service history last one at the 38,214 miles and no Mot advisories .
The car is still in UK at a shipping company www.globalexpress-ltd.co.uk and i can have it shipped to your location (I will pay the shipping) and we will use them as a third party.
If you have any questions feel free to email me or to contact the shipping company.
Yes is an Uk registered car is not imported ,no advisories on all MOTs if you are still interested please let me know and like i said in my previous email the car is at the shipping company www.globalexpress-ltd.co.uk and it will be better for both if the transaction will be done through them, due to the fact i'm overseas and I can not meet with you in person.They will be the third, objective party involved in the transaction. This way you will actually pay for the car after you receive and test it, because the shipping company will hold the funds in an Escrow and release it to me only after you receive and decide to keep the car.
Along with the car you will receive all the documents including the V5,keys, owner's manual,MOT certificates and a bill of sale signed to a legal attorney.
In order to complete this deal the payment must be sent to Global Express. As soon as they receive the payment will notify me to start with delivery.After that you will receive all information about delivery so you can be able to track your shipment online.shipping company will hold your payment until you receive and inspect the car (you have 5 days for inspection) If you will find the smallest problem with the car you will ship it back on my expense and Global Express will send you your full amount back.
Thank you for posting the latest version of this ongoing scam website.
More scam shenanigans from this schemer!
The 2006 Land Rover Discovery 3 is available and the final price is £5700.I am the registered owner and i have all documents.This car is in excellent working conditions,ONLY 90,000 miles,no scratches or dents, no hidden defects.

I am at my sister in Sweden and i left the car at the company to take care of the transaction.The car is still in UK at a shipping company http://www.Auto-Trans-ltd.co.uk and i can have it shipped to your location (I will pay the shipping) and we will use them as a third party.
NB: They also text me after I messaged them my number on eBay saying they were deaf so to correspond by email.
Thanks for sending that - I just wanted to be sure which Ad to report to Ebay as a scam.
Clearly, you’re not getting any better at this as you are written up all over the internet for scamming. I hope no-one else is becoming a victim of what you are doing.

Hi, I'm so glad I found your site. I was looking to buy a motorhome and got the same reply word for word as some of your other reports. They now use www.express-shippers.co.uk but auto-trans-Ltd.co.uk. Copy of initial post follows. They even sent a photo of registration document when asked.

Nice use of a mill! Looks like a killer project!
Excellent job, really quick to! I can't believe you got that 12v to fit with a bus oil pan under it!
The bus pans are the same as in the trucks, they're just flipped around. All you need is a new pick-up tube an you can flip it back the right way.
Can't wait to meet up next month Chase, I hope your new motor finds its way into something cool like this truck or maybe the other project. My truck is gonna look like a pile sitting next to yours bud. I just hope I don't blow my $hit up on the dyno at bdp an you end up having to haul me back to your place haha.
Nice job with the swap for wasting almost no time with it. But I have to know how well the little non intercooled VE moves those 36s down the road?

Another 9-11 comes before us and we still can’t forget the horror of that day–hate crimes against innocent lives in the name of some foreign god. I am so thankful that this is not the God of the Bible Whom we serve. When religion goes bad and finatics pick up their swords in the name of evil, all of creation shutters. It’s an all out attack on the God of the universe, and He must be so angry. Yet we still feel His Hand on our country, His outstretched Hand to the unloveable one, His faint cry, “Return to me, and I will return to you.” Oh, pray for our country and each of our hearts today to return to the shelter of His wing. Pray for our hardened hearts to feel again with the same passion that He loves us. Pray for nothing short of a fire within for the same things that stir our Lord. Pray for unity in the Holy Spirit for our hearts to align with His. He loves you so much!
What’s on your heart today? Let’s pray together and let His love heal every place within that needs the Master’s touch!
You said it Sister! Enjoyed seeing you in person so much!!! yes…how He loves us…and may we take His love to the world.
Amen, my sister and dear friend!

A story about young, beautiful and charming girl Dua, who has her own fantasies and dreams about her love and life. She has promised herself to have the best version of everything about herself in her life. Falling in love with Humza was the unsurpassed part of her life. But not everybody can envision your dreams and understand the feelings of young aged love. Her father Saif Mushtaq never did and Dua’s mother Khadija even she supported her husband only.
If your love holds your hand tightly; you might not need anyone else’s support, but if he leaves, you feel completely shattered. But loving someone and getting married to that same person is not always possible because, realities are always different than fantasies.
Tonight in Ishq Parast we see that Dua’s reality is her husband Zohaib and sharing her love is another cruel realism of life, her sister in-law Arsala and since then Dua’s fantasies are following her realities.

CHICAGO – You may be surprised by the angle taken by HBO’s controversial “Game Change,” a film already being summarily dismissed by conservative pundits who probably haven’t even seen the piece and merely assume that it’s another liberal Hollywood hatchet job. It’s not that at all.
CHICAGO – You’d never know it from the Academy Awards this past weekend but Sean Durkin’s “Martha Marcy May Marlene,” recently released on Blu-ray and DVD, was one of the best movies of 2011, a better overall film than at least half of this year’s Oscar winners. It features my choice for the best actress performance of 2011 and won the CFCA Award for Most Promising Filmmaker and Most Promising Performer. It’s absolutely a must-see.
CHICAGO – With a striking lead performance and assured direction from a debut filmmaker, “Martha Marcy May Marlene” has been one of the most acclaimed films of 2011 since its debut at Sundance many months ago.

The good news for Mac users bitten by the photo bug: thanks to powerful hardware and user-friendly software, it’s easier than ever to pursue photography as a hobby or even a profession. And the bad news? That powerful hardware and user-friendly software doesn’t always come cheaply.
But just because you can’t have it all doesn’t mean you can’t choose wisely. To prove it, we asked two digital photographers, Derrick Story and Ben Long, to show us how they would outfit themselves if given $5,000. But we added a twist: We told Derrick to shop as a professional photographer, while we asked Ben to make his purchases as if he were an enthusiastic (and deep-pocketed) amateur.
Derrick and Ben each began with a $5,000 budget and a 17-inch iMac with a 1.6GHz G5 processor, a Combo drive, 256MB of RAM, an 80GB hard drive, and the iMac’s bundled software. We gave them the option of selling the iMac for $1,299—the going price for that system on EveryMac.com—and adding the profits to the budget. Because buying just one pro-level camera could blow the entire $5,000, we assumed that our photographers already owned their cameras.
Here are the products they picked and the places where they picked up their equipment.
Click on product name to find best current price.
My Strategy: My radical departure was choosing a PowerBook as my sole computer. The computer side of my digital photography work had to be as nimble and powerful as the picture-taking side.
Most Essential Purchases: Aside from the camera, the PowerBook is my most important tool. Next are Photoshop, iPhoto, and the LaCie FireWire drives.
Most Expendable Purchase: I would reluctantly give up one of the auxiliary imaging apps.
If I Had More Money, I’d…: Upgrade the dye-sub printer to the Canon CP-330, buy a second 400GB hard drive for backups in a separate location, upgrade to 1.5GB of RAM, and add two .Mac accounts (one with a password and one without) for client previews of shoots. And I’d love a quality film scanner for digitizing my slide collection.
Ben’s Reaction: All users should consider Derrick’s portable approach (though the PowerBook and Cinema Display are a pricey combo). His combination of hardware and software is ideal for the workflow that a professional photographer needs.
My Strategy: The goal was to get the best gear for the money. The trick was to intelligently define best. For this market, it’s a combination of good image quality, intermediate performance, and broad feature set.
Most Essential Purchases: Photoshop CS; the RAM upgrade; the extra storage device; a 75mm-300mm or 10mm-22mm lens, depending on the type of shooting you like to do; and the Canon i9900 printer.
Most Expendable Purchases: The Epson P-2000, the Belkin media reader, the circular polarizer, the .Mac subscription, and Noise Ninja Pro.
If I Had More Money, I’d…: Upgrade to a Canon EOS 20D camera, for its improved shooting rate and lower noise levels; add a PowerBook for field viewing and editing (but never playing Halo—nope, never); and buy more lenses—always more lenses.
Derrick’s Reaction: The Epson P-2000 multimedia-storage and -viewing device is a great choice. I’ve played with one and really liked it. Maybe Ben will lend me his!

Gooey Butter Cake topped with chocolate chips and pecans.
If you need a crowd-pleasing dessert for a holiday office party, girls' get-together baby shower, football game, or almost any other gathering, here's your dessert. A cinch to whip up, this gooey butter cake recipe will have people begging for the recipe. Paula Deen's original recipe is here: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/paula-deen/gooey-toffee-butter-cake-recipe/index.html. And, there are lots of variations out there; pumpkin, toffee, lemon, chocolate, double chocolate and plain. But I like mine with a topping of chocolate chips and pecans. I've made the recipe many times over the years and the only addition that I have made is bit of salt to the filling layer. I found it countered the sweetness slightly and made the flavors sing.
Filling layer, all whipped up.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan. In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine cake mix, egg, and butter and mix well. Pat into the bottom of prepared pan and set aside. Still using an electric mixer, beat cream cheese until smooth; add eggs, vanilla and salt. Add the confectioners' sugar and beat well. Reduce speed of mixer and slowly pour in butter. Mix well.
Pour filling onto cake mixture and spread evenly. Sprinkle 1 cup chocolate chips and 1 cup chopped pecans on top of filling. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes. Don't be afraid to make a judgment call on the cooking time, because oven temperatures can vary. You want the center to be a little gooey.

I was born in a small town in Puerto Rico. I have lived in the East coast for most of my life. I moved to Florida with my children to start a new life. This is where I discovered Kellyco, 7 years ago. Never had I heard of metal detecting before but I was very much intrigued and decided to apply for a job when it became available. I was given the task to work with International and Domestic Customers due to the fact that I am bilingual.
It has been a challenging journey but when I find myself metal detecting, digging up nice pieces of jewelry and coins is always very gratifying. I enjoy metal detecting the beaches on the east coast of Florida where there is always great findings in water & on the sand. My favorite machine is the Tesoro Silver uMax. It is easy to use and light weight, which always comes in handy for long hour use. I only have to use one 9 volt battery.

Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon was to meet with President Bush on Tuesday to take a hard look at the "roadmap" to Middle East peace, to decide if it's really possible to get there from here. But after another attack over the weekend - a Hamas terrorist wearing a yarmulke and a prayer shawl blew up a bus - Sharon postponed the trip.
The roadmap is based on President Bush's June 24th 2002 speech on the Middle East - in the same sense that The Great Gatsby starring Robert Redford and Mia Farrow was based on the book by F. Scott Fitzgerald.
The president's speech was a landmark - the first real change in US Middle East policy in decades. In essence, it said to the Palestinians: "You can have terrorism or you can have a state. But you can't have both."
Mr. Bush's speech also was an attempt to integrate American peace efforts with the post-9/11 Bush Doctrine. That doctrine extends a welcoming hand to moderate Muslims who choose to join the Free world; it offers a mailed fist to extremists who choose to wage a terrorist war against America and its allies.
The speech's transformation into the roadmap fell short partly because it was prepared by the "Quartet," which brings in as America's partners the United Nations, the European Union and Russia. The problem is that the U.N., the EU, and Russia do not share the president's vision or subscribe to the Bush Doctrine - as we learned, painfully, in the days leading up to the liberation of Iraq.
In addition, the U.S. contribution to the roadmap was led by the same long-serving State Department officials who constructed the Oslo Accords and who still appear to believe that the Oslo approach (essentially, the belief that the promise of a Palestinian state will be sufficient incentive to end Palestinian terrorism ) is superior to anything President Bush could possibly imagine. Deeply ingrained within the culture of the State Department is the conviction that it would be wasteful to discard a policy just because it has failed (17,000 terrorist attacks including 251 suicide bombings since Oslo) or just because it does not happen to represent the views of the temporary occupant of the Oval Office.
As now drawn, the roadmap contains two major flaws, one in the text, one a matter of interpretation.
Start with the second: The roadmap's first requirement is that the Palestinians "immediately undertake an unconditional cessation of violence." That obviously hasn't happened - this week's bombing being just the latest examples. Mahmoud Abbas, the new Palestinian Authority prime minister, has so far made no effort to challenge such terrorist groups as Hamas or even to rein in such terrorist groups as the al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades, Fatah, and Tanzim - groups that, theoretically, report to him.
You might expect Abbas's refusal even to try to stop terrorism to be cited as the reason the roadmap has hit a road block. But the sophisticated diplomats and the sophisticated reporters who cover them instead blame Mr. Sharon. That's because they think everyone should be sophisticated enough to recognize that demands for "an unconditional cessation of violence" on the Palestinian side are unrealistic, especially while Yasser Arafat remains in command, which he does, especially while Arafat is still encouraging terrorism, which he is.
So, they figure, the sophisticated solution is to ignore that and instead pressure the Israelis to make concessions in the hope that will somehow jump-start the "peace process." In their view, Mr. Sharon's reluctance to go along with this approach proves once again that he's a "hard-liner."
The second flaw in the roadmap is that it leaves the question of "refugees" to the third phase of the process. That may sound like small potatoes but what it really means is that Palestinians can say publicly that they recognize Israel's right to exist - but with a wink and a nudge. As Abbas made clear in his inaugural speech, he intends to demand that Palestinians who left Israel in 1948 - when Israel was invaded by five Arab neighbors - should have the right to return to Israel (not just to the West Bank and Gaza), along with their children and grandchildren. Were that to happen, it would mean the destruction of Israel by demographic means. Israelis would become a minority in their own country; in other words Israel would cease to be Israel.
All this does not necessarily imply that the roadmap has become road kill. It does imply that everyone - the U.N., the EU, Russia, the State Department, even the Palestinians - needs to finally accept that post-9/11 a new Palestinian state can not be born as a terrorist state. It does imply that the Palestinians need to accept the fact that Arafat's dream of fatah, the conquest of Israel, has failed, and that the best deal the Palestinians can now get will be something like the deal Arafat turned down in 2000.
And it implies one more thing that should have been obvious all along: A roadmap is of little value until and unless the travelers agree on the destination.

VP to Cristina Fernández de Kirchner detained on charges including money-laundering and hiding undeclared assets.
Former vice-president Amado Boudou was arrested yesterday morning in Puerto Madero. Foto:Cedoc.
It wasn’t clear whether he saw it coming, or if he was just half-asleep. A little before 9am on Friday, members of the Naval Prefecture knocked on Amado Boudou’s door. He received them in jogging bottoms and without shoes, leaked video footage shows, only to be handcuffed, read his rights, and taken to Comodoro Py courthouse.
Boudou, Argentina’s vicepresident under Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and one of the most graphic incarnations of ambition from the heydays of Kirchnerismo, was taken into custody yesterday after Federal Judge Ariel Lijo ordered his arrest in a case initially brought in 2012, after concluding there was sufficient proof that Boudou had “profited in an unjustified manner” and that the former vice-president could interfere with the investigation into alleged wrongdoing.
The case file stated that there were “large inconsistencies” in his tax returns. Boudou is accused of racketeering, mentioned as the boss of an illicit association that laundered 4,238,900 pesos and US$995,000 from 2009, when he became economy minister, to 2015, when he left the office of the Vice-Presidency.
“[Boudou] had been enriched unjustifiably during the exercise of public duties,” Lijo said yesterday.
The judge cited tax return anomalies, the 2010 purchase of a Buenos Aires apartment by his former girlfriend, and the unclear source of tens of thousands of dollars in income. His former girlfriend, Agustina Kämpfer, has been called to testify and will also face money-laundering charges. Boudou’s business partner, José María Nuñez Carmona, was also arrested.
The former VP, famous for riding Harley Davidson motorcycles and playing electric guitar on stage during electoral campaigns, has at least four other serious accusations against him.
The most troubling is the fraudulent acquisition of Ciccone Calcografica, the only facility in Argentina with the capacity to print legal tender, in 2012.
Also involved in most cases is Alejandro Vandenbroele, who has been described by ex-wife Laura Muñoz as Boudou’s ‘frontman.’ Other cases include using insider information to buy sovereign debt ahead of Argentina’s 2010 debt exchange, handouts related to Formosa Province’s 2009 debt restructuring, and the acquisition of 19 luxury cars by the Economy Ministry under his tenure.
Boudou’s meteoric rise from middle-class beginnings in Mar del Plata began to materialise a he entered the National Social Security Administration (ANSES) in 1998. A decade later, he directed the ANSES and eliminated the AFJP private pension system. In 2009, he was sworn in as economy minister and in 2011 he became CFK’s veep.
His arrest came less than 24 hours after Fernández de Kirchner herself lost a legal appeal against corruption charges, with a high court saying the prosecution’s case against her can go ahead. The federal appeals court upheld a previous ruling that the 64-year-old former head of state must answer charges of criminal association and fraud that stem from her 2007-2015 term in office.
Fernández de Kirchner, however, enjoys parliamentary immunity from jail if convicted, having become a senator-elect in polls held last month. She says the charges are politically motivated and has accused the Mauricio Macri administration of seeking to “persecute” her and her former officials.
Longtime Kirchnerite figure and former planning minister, Julio de Vido, was arrested just two weeks ago on corruption charges after Congress stripped him of his parliamentary immunity.
A former deputy public works minister, José López, is also facing charges after being caught by police trying to hide approximately US$9 million in cash in a Buenos Aires convent earlier this year.

In Pudokkattai in Tamil Nadu in India, there are about 1, 618, 345 people. More then half this population is female which is slightly different from the overall population and like all of India, it's a splendid and (at times) incomprehensible mix of cultural and religious norms paired with progressive thinking.
I could give you some more statistics about the area - because I do like a statistic but I'd like to tell you a story about a small village which will remain nameless. Partly because that's best practice, but to be honest, I don't know that I know.
In this rural village there live about 120 families. Like all country towns - there is a clearly defined pecking order, a lot of motorbikes and a stack of children with dusty feet and cheeky grins. There's the guy that makes everybody laugh, children on bicycles arriving back from school and a cross faced women scolding small people into submission when they step out of line.
It could be anywhere. It is familiar and it is strange. It is a village where the average income comes to about ten dollars per week if work is available and where almost half the families are affected by alcoholic fathers.
And yes people, I know. Women can drink too. But not here. Not in this village. Gender inequality does have the strangest of silver linings sometimes.
Many of these men have been drinking since they were children. Child labourers who sought refuge in alcohol or used it to keep themselves awake during long nights, became Daily Wage Labourers who got paid when they worked, and didn't get paid when they didn't work. They married, had families and still they drank. Sometimes they would drink for days, sleeping at the grog shop and other times they would just collect their pays and then drink it away, leaving nothing for their families.
Domestic violence is rife. Families argue. Wives go hungry. Children go hungry. The health of the men is failing. It's not a new story. It's global. It's local.
But it impacts families here in a way that it doesn't back home. There is no safety net. None at all.
If there is no money, they starve.
Malnourishment affects developing brains. By the age of 5, the damage is irreparable. These children living in poverty, affected by their father's addiction, will have no chance to change anything later on. The moment will be lost.
World Vision asked the families what they needed. Was it money? Was it food? What would change it?
"Stop my husband from drinking"
And so they are. They've developed an intensive rehabilitation program which lasts for ten days. Ten days in-house. And then a two year follow up program. The follow up program includes medication which makes them vomit if they drink alcohol. But like all medication, if you don't take it, it doesn't work. They take it. They want it to work.
First one family, then two. Overall in the 12-18 months since they implemented the program, 54 men have participated. Only 4 have 'fallen of the wagon'. In this village alone, 10 men have undertaken the rehab program. More are going.
We got to meet with these families. They speak candidly. Much more candidly then I was expecting or even comfortable to begin with. The men talk of their addiction, how it affected their lives. Their wives speak of fighting and beatings and hunger and children who have never spoken. Children speak of how their fathers were embarrassing, beat them and were unlikeable.
And then they talked about how they support each, how much happier family life is. They talk of their pride in the children and how they were inspired to change their habits so the cycle was broken. The children tease their fathers, speak of how proud they are of what they have achieved. Their wives talk about no fighting, eating often, being able to leave money in plain sight.
These men were all in their 30s and 40s. These life time addictions were not the grandiose tales of rocks stars or bored executives with big pay packets and other options. They were the honest stories of people who relied on each other to build their communities back up. They talked of getting their brothers and friends into rehab. And how thankful they were to World Vision for giving them the opportunity to get back on track.
They weren't thanking World Vision for fixing the problem. They were thanking them for the opportunity to change their own lives. There is a difference. And it's a crucial one.
And do you know what this transformative program costs per person? Around $150 per person.
World Vision wasn't working with these guys just to get them into rehab. They were working with the community to effect decisive and long term change for the children. It was pretty empowering.
We still deem addiction in our society to be the responsibility of the addict. We put the onus on them to reform themselves and make our support conditional upon their 'success'. We label them as surely as if we tattoo their foreheads. These guys are surrounded by a community that see their sobriety as a return to their real selves. They aren't 'former addicts' or 'former alcoholics'.
They are Papa. Husband. Brother. Friend.
This week I am in the field with World Vision Australia as a guest of World Vision India.
I am sharing stories about the humans I meet.

Saiyans come from a planet that has 10x Earths gravity. They are vastly physically superior to humans in every way. Goku, when he was just a child, prior to learning on how to use ki in enhance himself from Roshi, was capable of shattering rocks with a bear hug, was bullet proof, and walked off from being sent through several thick stone pillars when Yamcha hit him with a wolf fang fist.
And that was just a child Saiyan. Just think about what an un-ki trained adult saiyan could do?
Saiyans natural physical stats are another reason they vastly outperform humans in combat. Should a human with a PL of, say;1000, fought a Saiyan who had the same PL. The fight would go down the same way a fight between one of us and an untrained Saiyan would go down; the human would have a fist through their chest before they knew what happened.
If that were true, the fight between Goku and Tenshinhan in Dragonball wouldn't have been evenly matched as they had the exact same power level. Toriyama even remarked how pleased he was by the fact that they were dead even which made for a more difficult battle.
I am immensely happy Toriyama got rid of Powr Levels because people oversimplify how they work, ignore how they work or conveniently forget when it serves their purposes.
Power Levels are like RPG levels: they are an aggregate measurement of one's stats such as strength, speed, defence, etc. So even if a person has a higher power level, they can still lose to someone with a lower power level because their stats matter. It's like a Rogue vs. a Tank--procedure matters.
Yes, Saiyans had an environmental advantage due to high gravity and can even be born with abnormally high levels. But nothing in their biology insinuates that they are resilient in a way that another being can't match.
Kid Goku's advantage was yes, he was a Saiyan and had a power level of that of a fully grown human at birth. He was trained by Gohan and got stronger. He and Yamcha were evenly matched in their first encounter--both had training that made them far beyond most adult fighters. Goku had a Saiyan advantage to compensate for his youth and his statistical edge was damage resistance. It's that simple.
Tien isn't a normal human. It's explained in the Daizenshuu that he is part alien. With his ancestors arriving to Earth long before the story. And Goku and Yamcha were anything but evenly matched. In their first fight; Goku was too hungry to even really fight. Yet after Yamcha hit him with the wolf fang fist, and sent him crashing through thick stone pillars, Goku casually just walked off from it. Not even remotely damaged, still complaining that he was hungry. In their se one fight? Goku defeated him in short order. It wasn't even a fight, and Yamcha lost a tooth for trying.
Point is; Gokus saiyan physiology always gave him the advantage. That's why he could casually shatter stone with a bear hug, push large stones, have bullets bounce off his skin, and walk off from both crashing through thick stone pillars, and the attack that sent him through it, as if nothing even happened, more concerned about his apetite.
either due to a team up, a charged up attack that surpasses their power level, or both. That's basically how it always worked. Later; It Just turned into who had the higher energy level and/or a charged up energy attack of some sorts. I never saw PLs as bad tbh. But was fine when they were gone.
"Tien isn't a normal human"
OK, what's normal is a huge topic to cover. Regarding his lineage, I recommend the following thread that digs deeper into said Daizenshuu and the series as a whole. It has a lot of point/counterpoint to save us both some time. Really, Google "Daizenshuu Tenshinhan 3-eyed clan" or any variation of that to get equally good results from the Kanzenshuu forums.
If it's too long to read, here's the short short version: Toriyama never said he was an alien, the 3-eyed clan are not necessarily aliens, and the Daizenshuu are not infallible.
But furthermore, we're talking about a series where none of the humans are "normal" and the term "earthling" includes a humanoid dog for World Leader.
As for Goku's strength, nobody is denying that he was freakishly strong. The argument is whether Saiyan physical ability is attainable by non-Saiyans. Your argument is that Goku's strength comes from genetics, not ki. If that is true, then it begs the question of whether that genetic durability improves with training or, as has been shown in the series and in the pop culture it's rooted in (Journey to the West, wuxia, etc), people improve their resistance with ki. Kaio's statement about Saiyan's strength coming from gravity simply implies that they adapted to said gravity via power (what non-earthlings don't know is ki). Its the same method used by Edgar Rice Burroughs in the John Carter of Mars books (and then borrowed by Siegel and Schuster for Superman's initial, very early origins) that argued if humans went to Mars they'd be stronger due to less gravity, or, if humans had been born on Krypton, they'd be as strong as Kryptonians.
So in other words, Toriyama took a mysitical eastern approach rooted in fairy tales and wuxia fiction, and later paired it with the western premise (Burroughs, Siegel and Schuster) that physically identical beings are made stronger by their environment.
So if every thing is a race against time, why hasn't Yamcha and Piccolo go in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber?
Unironically they both look cool as super saiyans.
Let's be honest anyone would look as a super saiyan...unless you have no hair.

It may still be winter with fields covered in snow, but around Valentine's Day, brilliant blooms abound as bouquets of flowers fill the shops. As the first snowdrops and crocuses appear, you know that spring is just around the corner and valley meadows will soon be carpeted in a kaleidoscope of colourful wild flowers. Summer arrives and chalet balconies are bedecked with beautiful blossoms. The rich red, yellow and gold of autumn set a quieter mood as the annual cycle slowly once more draws to its close.
Diamonds maybe forever, but flowers are for everyone!
Take photos indoors wherever possible, or at least choose a still day – movement due to wind is one of the most common ways of spoiling your flower picture by blurring, especially when shooting extreme close-ups. To avoid blurring use a good sturdy tripod and a remote shutter release which will eliminate another of the main causes of loss of focus – camera shake.
Select portrait or landscape mode carefully – look at the flower subject and think about which suits its shape the best. If it helps you decide, there’s nothing wrong with lining up the shot through a frame made by your fingers in either landscape or portrait, even if you do feel a bit self-conscious if someone is watching! Then experiment with different angles: try above, below and from straight in front. The tripod is invaluable in this process, because as you try out angles and settings, you can maintain the focus.
Lighting is crucial in good flower photography, and can be used creatively. Dawn is a good time to find the best light, and as a bonus the air is often still then. For a dewy look, sprinkle the petals with a few drops of water. If you are shooting flower pictures indoors, or if you just want to be able to control the light direction and intensity, good results can be obtained using a torch when it is dark, rather than expensive photographic lighting.
Set the camera correctly for the type of close-up you want. Choose the Portrait setting for distances over 30cm, and Macro for distances of less than 30cm, even down to 2.5cm. If you are using manual settings, choose a low F-stop number for a wide aperture; this will give you a sharp image of the flower, but put the background out of focus. Sometimes, perhaps counter-intuitively, using a telephoto lens works even better than Macro. This is true of the type of picture where you want to isolate one flower and put the front of the photo out of focus as well as the background. It is a good idea to turn off the Autofocus when shooting in extreme close-up. This is because precise focussing is vital to the picture, and Autofocus may not be accurate enough.

Sarah Chose Happy: I Love Food.
There, I said it! Hi, my name is Sarah and I love food and like 5 people. If I’m not eating, I’m usually thinking about what I’m eating next. I am definitely a person who lives to eat versus what you’re supposed to do by eating to live. I really miss cooking and my new life doesn’t lend itself to much kitchen time these days. I was being extremely adventurous last weekend and I tried 3 new recipes. They were all boss. Since I love you all so much, I will kindly share my new food adventures with you.
I mixed all of the above with an immersion blender and poured in a greased pie pan. You bake it at 200 degrees for 20 minutes and crank it up to 300 degrees for 35 minutes. Let it cool back to room temperature and cover and refrigerate. Of course, I added a bit of peanut butter and whipped cream to mine. The texture was exactly what I was expecting. The edges were a little dry but the center of the cake was perfect.
Canadian bacon. Marinara sauce. Cheese.
I baked Canadian bacon slices in a muffin tin at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Next, add a spoonful of sauce to each and sprinkle cheese on the top. I put these under the broiler until the cheese melted and the smoke detector went off. They’re done! Reminder to clean my oven. These were epic and life changing. You can see from the photo that even Oliver wanted to snag some but he got nothing as he’s still on a diet. Poor baby. You can totally use whatever sauce you prefer. I use a Publix brand sauce as it had the lowest sugar and carbs on the sauce aisle. All I did was check some labels and narrow them down. Reading is wonderful, peeps!
Cilantro lime chicken. This is a Crockpot recipe so I’m already in love with it. It’s so freaking simple that it’s ridiculous I don’t do this more often.
Put the chicken breasts in the bottom of the Crockpot (you can also use a whole chicken). Squeeze the juice of 3 limes into the pot. Pour in some chicken broth until the chickens are nearly covered. Cube the white onion and throw that in. Add garlic and sprinkle salt and pepper in. Add several stalks of cilantro on top. Put your lid on and cook for 4-6 hours. I set my crock at 6 hours but got impatient and only cooked chickens for 4 hours. They were perfect! The smell in your house will also be INSANE. Once cooked, throw away the wilted cilantro stalks. I pulled out the chicken breasts and put into a dish and shredded with 2 forks. I saved the onion and added it to the shredded chicken. I strained a little of the liquid back onto the shredded chicken to add some moisture back to it. I chopped some fresh cilantro and tossed it in with the chicken and onions. This chicken would be AMAZING in some tacos or on nachos but this Mexican food junkie just ate it with a side salad.
Sunday had me feeling very much like Aunt Martha (Stewart, duh). Links to the two actual recipes I (kind of) followed are below. I wouldn’t lie about food so you guys know these things taste good. I haven’t lost all sense! Happy eating!

Mimi Jung's work examines multiple dimensions of self-preservation, particularly as it relates to private and public self-representation, and the ways in which those depictions are manifest through social and cultural mores. Her constructed forms, with their voids and translucencies, are fixed but never static; the viewer actively controls the experience of transit around and through them—reflecting inward on their own behaviors. In the end, Jung’s limning of space is reflexive, visible to those who are predisposed to see it.
Born in 1981 in Seoul, Korea, Mimi Jung received a BFA from Cooper Union and attended HGK Basel and Städelschule for postgraduate studies. She has mounted exhibitions through out the United States including Chamber gallery, Nina Johnson gallery, Carvalho Park gallery and Design Miami/. Her work has also been exhibited in Les Gens Heureux in Copenhagen, Collectible in Brussels, Somerset House in London and National Gallery of Victoria in Melbourne. She lives and works in Los Angeles.
