We spent the week on the boat, at the dock, in mostly wet and windy weather, and I knew I would rather bake than do anything useful. I just couldn’t decide what kind of cookie to make using only the ingredients on board. Decisions, decisions, decisions! The weather made baking a very attractive indoor project, but not attractive enough to walk to the store for supplies. Now how lazy is that? Eventually chocolate chip cookies won out over biscotti as an easy choice.
One fat naval orange almost begged to be part of the action. It looked so lonely sitting in the fruit basket, days after it’s friends had disappeared one by one.
Orange zest, hmmm - citrus might be a welcome contrast to the double-sweet dose of chocolate and brown sugar.
I decided to add the zest of that large orange to a half-recipe of cookies, using the recipe on the back of the package of chips.
The batch of chocolate chip cookies was a perfect test subject. Note the past tense, “was”. We taste tested the cookies while they were still warm from the oven - ummm, good. We nibbled on a few more after they cooled - ummm, still good, and the tangy hint of orange really came through. Friends came by and soon the pile of cookies had shrunk by half.
These treats were going fast, and I worried that we would be wearing the evidence for weeks. The crew at the nearby Water Taxi office enjoyed a dozen and soon this was all that remained to be photographed.
Note: This post is just a poorly-disguised excuse to play with the Macro and SuperMacro settings of my new camera - features I'm still getting used to. (Turn this dial to P for Program - press that icon two or three times on another button - and don’t expect the zoom to work on SuperMacro, just move the camera body - now remember all of these steps tomorrow…) Hey, I was excited to work with regular Macro, but SuperMacro is a whole new world of fun. Dozens of shots are waiting to be analyzed, discarded or Photoshopped... but I think I'll just keep playing with the camera instead.
In 2001 I found directions for creating a sourdough starter from potato water and local, wild yeast. We were cruising in Alaska at the time, so I like to think my starter shared a history with the early sourdough prospectors. Sadly, after a few years, I had neglected it for too long and it developed a noxious smell as well as some interesting molds in pastel shades of green and pink. King Arthur Flour Co. supplied a replacement starter, which has been working happily for years in breads, rolls, muffins, pancakes and waffles. Well, happily until 2010.
My sourdough pot now sits, ignored, hidden way back on the lower shelf of the refrigerator, a victim of my faltering 2010 resolution to eat less and eat healthy. I feed the starter weekly and apologize for my neglect, but I just know it feels rejected.
This weekend I succumbed to temptation, but only a little. Produce from a recent grocery trip prompted wicked thoughts of eggs Benedict with asparagus, sort of a celebratory nod to an entire week of Seattle sunshine. Omigod, hollandaise sauce is such a decadent treat, it’s like tasting the flavors of Spring while basking in sunlight. Why does it have to be such an unhealthy fat calorie hit? I moved on. The fresh asparagus went into a healthy pasta primavera dish for dinner, but the English muffin idea lingered on. Don't you just love the idea of a yeast bread that cooks in a skillet instead of baking in the oven? It's always a winner onboard, so why not at home?
The blog-recommended technique of oven baking following skillet browning is a winner; English muffins CAN then be enjoyed immediately, without toasting. Not a big thing, because we prefer toasted muffins, though this method helps to reduce the threat of overtoasting. I don't know about you, but in our kitchen or galley, overtoasted is the same as burnt, and one of us has definite opinions about that! Oh, yeah.
I fed the starter late Saturday morning, mixed and kneaded the dough that afternoon, let it rise and then held it in the fridge overnight. Early on Sunday morning -even before making the coffee- I let the dough came back to room temperature, rolled and shaped the muffins and let them get light and puffy. Waiting and watching dough rise is not a spectator event, so it was a good time to sip coffee and read the paper.
The cooking/baking went quickly and filled the kitchen with the heavenly, comforting aroma of fresh bread. Oh yum, we could hardly wait for them to cool to try our fork-splitting techniques and enjoy.
1. Dissolve the dry yeast in a bit of water until it begins to bloom. Place starter in a glass or ceramic bowl and stir in the bloomed yeast, sugar, salt and cooking oil. Add flour, a little at a time, until the dough comes together into a ball. Knead by hand on a lightly floured surface for 10 minutes, or with the dough hook of a stand mixer for 8 minutes at a slow setting.
2. Place the kneaded dough ball in a lightly oiled bowl, cover lightly with oiled plastic wrap or a clean tea towel until it doubles in bulk. Time will vary according to kitchen temperature (this batch took about 2 hours). Put the bowl in the fridge overnight to bump up the flavor, it seems to increase the sour tang.
3. Bring the dough back to room temperature (about an hour) and turn it out gently on a silicon baking mat generously sprinkled with cornmeal. Roll out lightly to about ¾ inch thick - not too thin or they won’t get puffy. Cut the dough into 3 to 4 inch rounds (a biscuit cutter or an empty tuna can works just fine); move them apart and sprinkle the tops with more cornmeal. Cover them loosely again and let them rest at room temperature until puffy, but not too puffy.
Use a thin spatula to carefully move each muffin from silicone pad to the skillet without deflating them - watch out, they really want to stick to your fingers if you try to help them off the spatula! Keep the muffins well-spaced in the pan; it makes for easier turning and prevents them from sticking together. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes on the first side, just until the bottom is lightly browned. The muffins will puff a bit more so turn them gently to avoid deflating, and cook 5 to 7 minutes on the other side until lightly browned. Avoid overbrowning since they will be toasted in a toaster before eating.
5. Transfer the cooked muffins to a nonstick baking sheet; place in the preheated oven and bake at 350F for about 6 minutes. Cool on a rack.
6. When you are ready to enjoy a muffin, insert the tines of a fork all around the rim edge and then gently pull the two halves apart. This gives you a bumpy surface that will toast crisply and offer ample nooks for butter to soak in. The muffins freeze well, but they don’t last very long around here so it’s not an issue.
I am in love, again - with the shiny new KitchenAid stand mixer that now resides in my kitchen. It has already stirred biscotti and Spritz cookies, kneaded pizza dough and French baguettes, and been a counter adornment. It's time to task it and me with something new, completely new, something more challenging. Something like... homemade sausage, that's a new arena.
I am not really a big fan of sausage, or hot dogs, links, meatloaf, or anything else that relies on a mixture of smooshed up mystery ingredients and fat. Besides, sausage makes me burp and the taste plays reruns for ages. That said, one of my 2010 resolutions is to master the art of sausage making. My logic is that if I can control what's in the blend, I can improve on the taste and diminish the aftereffects.
Now my KitchenAid has company, thanks to easy ordering from Amazon.com. A yet-unused meat grinder attachment, a sausage stuffer device, Bruce Aidell's Complete Sausage Book and Michael Ruhlman's Charcuterie now join the crowd of must-have gadgets and cookbooks in my kitchen. Further research is needed to track down a local source for sausage casings, but I'm working on it. And I am still reading the books and finding sausage making hints, recipes and blogs online.
Lately we have been taste-testing the ingredients for Merguez sausage, using preground lamb and Italian sausage links, with a combination of interesting spices and fresh produce. I have not strayed too far from a blend of two Aidell recipes, though the resulting Merguez patties and mini meatloaves are so tasty we might never make it to the sausage stuffing stage.
Adapted from Bruce Aidells’ Complete Sausage Book and Michael Ruhlman’s Charcuterie.
Preheat the oven to 375. Use kitchen spray to oil a pan of muffin-sized Bundt cups - you know, the ones with the cone in the middle to make a hole. No Bundt muffin pan? Substitute custard cups, large muffin tins or small ramekins - they all work.
Place the onions in a microwavable bowl, cover with water and cook just to soften. Drain, rinse with cold water to cool, and then drain again.
Remove the casings from the sausage (if using links) and add all ingredients to a large mixing bowl. Use your hands to blend thoroughly; don’t smoosh it heavily, just mix and mix and mix.
Fry a small, flat patty until done (no pink remaining) and taste for salt, pepper and other seasonings. Adjust as needed.
Scoop out a ½ cup or so of the mix and plop it into a prepared Bundt cup, packing lightly and leveling the top. The mix should yield six mini meatloaves, depending upon the containers and how full they are filled. Bake until you measure an internal temperature of 160 degrees, roughly 25 minutes. If the tops look too moist, briefly broil to add a crisp crust.
Remove to a heated serving plate, and serve with a side of tzatziki - cucumber and yogurt sauce.
Place cucumber chunks in a strainer; add salt and toss gently. Place strainer over a bowl and let sit awhile you work on the meatloaves. You will be amazed at the quantity of liquid that drains out! Rinse the cucumbers thoroughly under cold water; drain again and wring in a clean tea towel to remove as much moisture as possible without reducing the cukes to moosh. Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix thoroughly. The flavors will blend and intensify as they sit. The sauce will keep overnight in a covered container in the refrigerator, but will need to be used within a day or two.
We love these formed as mini loaves or as patties served with Tzatziki sauce and accompanied by sides of a Greek-style panzanella salad and lemon-roasted potatoes or lemony potato salad. A dessert of wine-poached pears with honey-flavored Greek yogurt finished the latest Merguez meal, but we ate them before I could grab a photo.

The term ‘hybrid’ is much better known in the automobile industry. It means that two different systems are used which complement each other when driving a vehicle. The term is also used in relation to hearing. Here it refers to the use of two different systems for one ear: electrical impulses generated by a cochlear implant processor and acoustic signals provided by a conventional hearing aid. This is known as electroacoustic stimulation (EAS) or hybrid stimulation. The impulses induced by the cochlear implant transfer high-frequency auditory information, while the signals induced by the hearing aid transfer low-frequency auditory information. If hearing deteriorates over time, the processor can be reprogrammed so that all frequencies can still be perceived.
If an individual still has good hearing at low frequencies and benefits from hearing aid amplification, a hybrid electrode is used in order to preserve the residual hearing. This electrode is shorter and much more delicate than a conventional CI electrode, and is inserted into the inner ear using a special surgical method.
A hybrid system not only allows preservation of one’s current state of hearing, but also enables the use of a combination of (a) the well-known acoustic hearing sensations provided by a hearing aid and (b) the new electrically induced hearing sensations for the high frequencies.
Both parts are controlled by only one device, which requires a single power source. The user can adapt more effectively to different situations – at an event or at a restaurant, for example – and can perform better at separating background noise from voices. However, even with this system (just like with all other auditory systems), singling out one individual voice is still a problem. The additional use of a directional microphone may help. This amplifies the voice of the speaker directly in front of it to a normal level, and other speakers to a quieter level.

Just now we have some ready to occupy 3 BHK apartment sale in Bangalore South,Kanakapura Road..
Sumo Symphony. Our latest mantra to green living: Located Begur, 48 Elite Flats, Swimming Pool, Joging Track & Gym right at the heart of nature.
Sumo Sonnet, located in Kudlu Gate , South Bangalore. is one of the residential developments of Sumo Group. It offers spacious 2 BHK and 3 BHK residential apartments. The project is well equipped with all the amenities to facilitate the needs of the residents.
Located just 12 minutes away from Sarjapur Road, Sumo Sonnet Provides unmatched connectivity, with a close proximity to excellent educational institutes and world-class healthcare facilities.
A Happy going couple (Prady & Mitali) were in search of a House until they came across this beautiful property, "Sumo Sonnet" and the first impression about this project was "Woooow....This is HOMEY". Talking a little about Sumo Sonnet, this is very much within the limits of Bangalore's prime location and well connected to all other parts of the city (especially IT Parks). We are impressed with the overall Project Management, Good construction quality, Good Floor planning which make even the smallest available unit look spacious, Plenty of Open Space, All required Ammeneties and Most importantly CLEAR DOCUMENTATION. Now talking about Sumo Group, the Marketing and Sales Team under the Leadership of Mr. Anupam Mishra is amazing. The team members are super friendly and make you feel like home. They hear and understand all your concerns patiently (Be it Modification or Flexibility with payment) and will take all possible steps to resolve the same. The best part is the Customer Service Experience which is Better Everyday ☺. "Overall a Good Buy for us and We are HAPPY to be part of Sumo Family"
They say that buying a house is a life-changing experience. It has been indeed a life changing one for me. I first saw this property on Oct 2017 and we had been looking for a property for over 3 year by then. People gain experience over the years and I had a bit of it going my way having looked at various properties across Bangalore. In terms of priorities, I was clear about what I wanted from a property: approval > location > trust > design > quality. When I saw the property for the first time, out of the fourteen floors, only the fourth floor slab was casted. It was a long way from being complete. The real estate market was going through a churn because of demonitization. Everyone I knew of, told me that it was not the right time to invest. Everybody was convinced that the real estate market was going to take a very long time to recover. I went ahead with the verification of the legal documents to confirm whether the approvals were in place. The location of the property was always excellent. With the metro station coming up at less than 900 meters, it has now become even better for the residents. I appreciated the design, the ventilation, the quality of construction and the aesthetics so thoughtfully provided. No common walls, two big elevators per block, broad staircase, and 80% open space were all great. But that was not why I wrote the cheque. I wrote it because I spoke to Mr Anupam Mishra (Director of Sales and Marketing) and trusted him and his team. Despite the advise of my family, friends, and colleagues to not invest in real estate during those uncertain times, I went with my gut. I wrote the cheque based on pure trust. A year later, I do not regret the decision. I have seen a slab being cast every 21 days. The speed at which the construction went ahead, was nothing less than remarkable. I have visited the site every weekend. I have seen the construction inside out. What impressed me was the attention to detail. The very professional way of handling the financial transactions, the courteousness in answering all the questions, and bringing in a feel-good factor by displaying a certain amount of confidence in their own ability, have made me very happy. It has also allowed me to enjoy the experience of buying my first home. Looking forward to a great stay in Sumo Sonnet and wishing the team of Sumo Properties bigger successes in the future. For the time being, I understand that Sumo Sonnet is the most ambitious project from Sumo Properties but I am certain that this team has the ability to embark on bigger projects. Good luck on that and thank you for your excellent work.
Sumo group made our dreams a reality :) Pleasantly surprised and extremely pleased…that is how we would describe our building experience with Sumo Group. Every interaction, start to finish, was a positive experience. We are extremely thankful to the entire team; especially Anupam Sir for all the guidance and support.. It was the best decision we made and we are proud to be with Sumo Group!
Sumo Sonnet is a very balanced project in most of the aspects that a property buyer in Bangalore looks for. The location, quality and amenities coupled with an engaging sales and marketing team, has made our experience a memorable one. We are expecting the project to be completed on time.
Our Investment towards Sumo Sonnet project was only because of Mr. Anup Sir, if it was not for his friendly approach and advertising skill, we would have given a second though in buying this project, he personally motivated us to buy this project, since our kids were very much interested in staying in an apartment, we thought of buying an apartment, which is within the city limits and very close to my work place.
Mr. Anup was very understanding and was willing to meet us many times when we had a doubt or needed a clarification regarding any issues and he personally sorted us so many issues of ours and full filled all his promises. We are looking forward for a happy stay in this apartment. And once again our sincere thanks to Mr. Anup Sir.
What I liked the most about Sumo Group is their commitment to handover projects on time and their clear property documents. Talking specifically about the project "Sumo Sonnet", not only the overall build quality is good but also the pace at which the construction has happened is impressive. My only gripe is with unit sizes. I wish they had even bigger sized units. But apart from that, rest everything is top notch. I personally liked the landscaping and the open space been provided. The sales and marketing team is also very helpful. What's more? It's a project registered under RERA with CC and OC. I am happy with my purchase of 3BHK in Sumo Sonnet and wish Sumo Group all the best for their other projects.
To start with “Sonnet” itself means 14. The G+14 floor construction is coming up extremely superb!!!! We are proud of the thoughtfulness and commitment Sumo Sonnet is demonstrating through the design, construction and commissioning. We are very happy with their quality work, schedule sensitivity and responsiveness to our needs, at a fair price. Purchasing a flat with sumo group is really good experience. As first time home buyer, we were overwhelmed and anxious about the building process. Mr Anupam Mishra is always there to answer all of our questions and put our minds at ease. No question remains unanswered. The team’s work ethic, professionalism and attention to detail is appreciable for working on a project of this magnitude!! We recommend Sumo Sonnet to all of our friends and family!!!!!!!
Sumo sonnet project is a very balanced one with certain advantages like location, Amenities, pricing supported by a very engaging team of engineers and marketing staff. Honestly, I am pretty happy with the way they have taken this project forward and now nearing completion. Coming to the quality aspects, I believe that till now they have maintained things .Mr Anupam Mishra leads the sales team and he has been very supportive to me and most of the customers that I know. Definitely, one needs to be assertive in dealing but one thing that stands out is his commitment to the values. It's good to see someone who values human relationships more than money and this is perhaps one of the reasons why this project did significantly well. I m looking forward to get the possession which should be in a few months from now.

The apartment is well designed to cater all the needs of people. vastu, affordability, separate walls, good construction material, clean paper work, project running on time, good amenities, major Banks approval for Project Before buying a flat I had so many apprehension related to property, but Anumpam Sir made it really easy for me at each and every step. I am saying this because I was handling this alone and my family was not here with me. He handles each and every matter of your concern very patiently and make sure that the customer is relieved of trouble or tension at least from the property side. Thank you to the entire SUMO SONNET Team once again.

Our best wishes to SUMO developers & their upcoming projects too. Thanking you sir.
K. SRINIVASA, K. RADHA & Fmly.
After looking out for around 1 year we have come across Sumo Sonnet. And like any other builder we went there to have a look. But unlike many builders, Sumo Sonnet delivered what they said over last 1 year. Construction, Documents, rules and regulations adherence everything is proper. I can say they listen to customers and do as per customers expectation, this is very important nowdays. In my case which is not usual, lot of complexities were there with bank loan, missing documents from bank side, preparing GPA. But Sumo Sonnet people helped me alot to get the things done immediately. To recount past one year it'll take lot of space here. To summarize, i can say don't worry about documentation, Govt rules adherence and location.Everything is proper. Sumo Sonnet Team is there to help there customers.
Being a very happy customer of SUMO SONNET, We are much satisfied with the quality, way of your work and customer friendly executives. We witness a great progression of work, and strongly believe the project gets completed on time. A special mention to Mr.Anupam Mishra, the major force who drives the project successfully.

Oysters that were growing on Aspen roots.
Oysters growing on branches and garden waste.
Oyster Mushrooms make great food.
How do you prepare the coffee grounds to grow oyster mushrooms?
I have been working at growing mushrooms on coffee grounds without any preparation. If you can get them started before they mold, your chances of success are much greater. Storing the grounds outside in the winter keeps the mold down.
Dean, thanks for the information and pictures. I needed a delectable edible mushroom for a story taking place in Montana, and think I have found the one!
Found some Oysters on the river in the Southwest part of the state. Gallatin River. Tried to leave a pic, dont know if it worked. What is the groth rate of wild Oyster mushrooms. We have a few good day of weather before it gets cold again…….is it worth going out again this weekend?
Hey Fisk, glad to hear from you again.
The oysters will flush until the weather gets hot. Then they will rest and flush when it gets cool again. They grow fast and it will be worth your time to go out again. When you know a mushroom is flushing, it is a great time to find new patches. They will come back year after year until the tree is gone. Oysters are great because they are not so dependent on rain to flush because they get their moisture from the tree!
Thanks Dean! Will give it a try this Saturday and Sunday. Is there a way to post picture or send them to you for sharing? Thank you for the web site! Great place to go for answers.
I will set up a way to send pics through the site, but for now you can attach them to my personal email at montanamushrooms@gmail.com and I will post them.
Sorry… Any luck with the Oysters?
yep, I posted them on the site! I saw a couple clusters myself, but not where I could pick them!
I will look at at them and help if I can.
Whitehall is really dry this year and I have not heard of anyone finding morels yet.
Oysters grow really well on straw. They will grow from spores or pieces of the mushroom. Oysters are very aggressive and start fairly easy. I like to inoculate with everything I have to increase the chances of success. If you get some started now they might flush this fall.
The part where the mushroom is attached to the tree will be the most likely to grow. This is true of most mushrooms.
I found a site that is growing Oyster mushrooms, my question is some were tan to orange brown, I am assuming a missed opportunity. The others were white and slightly slimy with lots of critters crawling including a slug. I am new with Oysters, is the slimy texture a sign to leave them and wait for the next batch? Thanks.
The oysters I have found lately have been spent. Dried up or wormy and rotting. This sounds like your situation.
Another note on your comment; The all white oyster with the common name of “angel wings” that usually grows on aspen is in controversy right now. There has been reports of bio accumulation of a toxin when consumed over a long period. I talked to Larry Evans about this recently, and we noted that some of the toxicity reports we get are sometimes based on a local phenomena, individual tolerances or a very localized variety. I have always suspected outside toxins(weed killers, bug killers, fertilizers) on these vague toxin problems. Not to be taken lightly until cleared up. There are plenty of brown oysters to go around and I have never heard of a problem with eating them!
I used to eat the angel wings we find around here. Ever since the news about possible accumulation of toxins, I have removed them from my edibles list. plenty of safe edibles to find and consume!
I started growing oyster mushrooms 3 days back on spent coffee grounds but recently I read somewhere that this technique fails many times as some green colored mould starts to take over. Do you know some measures that I can take in advance to prevent that from happening to my mushrooms. Also, if I start seeing some green colouration, how do I kill that unwanted fungi?
The best way to beat mold is to help the mycelium grow as fast as possible. Oyster spawn is aggressive and will usually beat out the mold. The other option is to put it somewhere too cold for mold but warm enough for the spawn. Oyster spawn will take cool temps and mold will not! I have read you can dab mold with diluted hydrogen peroxide, but be careful because it will kill mycelium also.
Met you today on the East Gallatin. Really nice to talk with you about mushroom hunting and your website. I will try to send photos of the oysters and morels I harvested today.
Hey Troy, and welcome to Montana Mushrooms!
It was great to talk to you in the field. Us mushroom nuts don’t always have someone to visit with about mushrooms. I received your pictures and will post them soon. We also talked about cooking mushrooms, and I plan posting more about that part of mushrooming on the site.
i have been growing oysters for two years now and am getting the hang of it. next spring im going to start selling them at the Whitefish farmers market. so far i have grown whites, greys and blues and the greys have done the best, then the blues and finally the whites but they all grew pretty good and near the end of the summer this year i was getting more mushrooms than me and my nephew and my sister-in-law could eat so i started giving them away but then found out they dry really good and when u rehydrate them they come back 90-95 pecent of fresh and taste fabulous so next year every one that doesnt sell gets dried and saved for winter. Since starting eating lots of mushrooms my digestive system has fixed itself and i feel more healthy than i have in years. they are high in protein, fiber and have anti tumour properties and boost your immune system and just are all around good things and they smell great both before and after cooking. I hope to turn this hobby into a business and maybe branch out to shitakes and enokies too.
Hello, and thank you for your awesome comment about Oyster Mushrooms!
Oysters are as underrated as morels are overrated. I am happy that you have figured out how to grow them and now you will learn how to market them. Hopefully this site has been helpful with your learning. Farmers markets are the way to go locally. Mushrooms are so good for us and I am always trying to spread the word. Please let us know how you do on growing other types and how you do selling them.
Fungus found! -the evening before the snow of course! I’m 90% sure it was an oyster -growing on an old stump (prob. cottonwood) Are there any oyster look-alikes that I should be aware of? I might try to gather a couple of meals of oysters this spring. I generally find quite a few, but have never picked them. I tried some Wal Mart dehydrated oysters and they were really woody and lacked flavor. I would like to pick a few small tender ones and give them a real try.
As a bonus, I found the remains of over a dozen lg. puffballs. At least I know where to look for them this summer. Should be a good one. We have the moisture now.
The Morels are out this weekend in Central Montana. I think I found some oyster mushrooms today in some trees down by the river but I’m not good at telling for sure. Any tips? Can I email some pictures to another shroomer?
hello again dean, this is a followup on my previous post. I have been taking my mushrooms to the whitefish farmers market every Tuesday and have sold out every week. I have switched from straw to oak wood pellets, less labor and have been doing pretty good this year although not as good as I was hoping to. Still have trouble coming up with saleable amounts of mushrooms every week, some weeks have lots some not so much. I learned almost everything I know off the internet and sites like this one, oysters are easy, I would suggest anyone interested to start with them and move on from there.
Hello Dan the Mushroom man!
Glad to hear that you are still at it. I hope your county allows mushroom sales at farmers markets for a long time to come. Gallatin county does not allow it at all. I am hoping to do something about that issue this year.
I just found some oysters on the Gallatin! Do they stick to one spot or is it best to look around the area a lot more?

Can you let me know if there is a limit to the number of completed surveys that can be stored on a device offline before connection to the Internet and upload to the SurveyManager. In this instance it is an iPad 2 survey with about 20 questions and up to 400 completed surveys may need to be held on the device prior to upload.
The limit depends on how much storage space you have on the device and whether you are capturing Multimedia. For 1 survey response for a 20 Question survey using an iPad, the file size is ~2KB (without multimedia). The same survey capturing 1 picture the file size is ~1MB. So unless you are capturing a lot of Multimedia you should not have an issue with 400 completed survey stored on the device.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if all we had to do was speak our wishes and they came true?
Maybe we can’t have our dreams fulfilled that way, but we can get information and affect our surroundings merely by voice command, which uses artificial intelligence voice recognition. Amazon Alexa, Apple Siri, Google Assistant, and others have introduced various forms of digital personal assistants (DPA) into our home. These devices can do such simple things as providing weather reports, streaming music, alerting us to appointments, setting the thermostat, and programming our TV to give us the shows we want. They can answer questions as a search engine. They can also order from Amazon and elsewhere, using a credit card on file, based on your voice commands. Your kids will love this feature.
If not properly set up, your DPA would allow your child or even your parrot the opportunity to order for you. Maybe you don’t want your talking bird housed too close to your DPA’s microphone.
A recently purchased printer from HP has not only the built-in ability to purchase ink for us on a regular basis, but the annoying habit to keep reminding us of its capability. I’ve read of plans for a refrigerator that would do likewise for its contents. The milk is approaching its expiration date. Let’s order more milk. Sorry, forgot to tell my fridge I was leaving town for the weekend. Oh, well. As least the newer versions of DPA are adopting senses of humor.
All of the connected home technology works as part of the Internet of Things. Of course, each device becomes a point of weakness into your home systems. You can buy a networked camera and alarm system, connected thermostat, and voice activated TV. You do realize all the voice activated systems are collecting not only your voice commands, but also personal information on your habits and preferences. The companies say they don’t retain that information, but are you sure?
Perhaps we should just accept that the age of privacy is over. After all, families didn’t have privacy throughout most of human history. They lived in one room dwellings where there was no privacy. Often extended families lived under the same roof. Maybe what we think of as privacy is a delusion we tell ourselves. On the other hand, if the wrong people get hold of your private information, such as your social security number, they can do you quite a bit of harm without even seeing you.
The Internet of Things offers tremendous benefits in terms of convenience and connection, but it will come with the unintended consequence of loss of privacy.

First home game of the season! Ziegler’s A-League debut! Baccus first ever goal! Baumjohann Man of the Match! Babbel fashion!
A lot of positives to talk this week for the majority of the episode until we realise #SydneyDerby is on and it is going to rain (as usual) and we’ll probably lose (as usual).
New segments are named and Nick Nova makes a guest appearance on this week’s bumper episode.
Recorded the same night as our first episode of Season 7, the team discuss the squad for the upcoming season. Who do we see as our key players? What do we hope to see from the coaches and team this season? All this and more.
Nick had a chat with Dave from Melbourne Victory’s For Vuck’s Sake podcast on that semi-final knocking out Sydney FC, Victory’s season, the stand out players and what the future holds for Muscat and Victory.
In a special episode of Around The Bloc Turner, Josh, Tatiyana and Nick took to the Fox Sports studio’s along side Adam Peacock and Simon Hill from Fox Sports, and Greg O’Rourke from the FFA/A-League to discuss the big issues within football in Australia from grassroots all the way to the A-League and everything in between.

We travelled to Wagin on Thursday 9th , the students set the sheep up in their pens then we travelled to Narrogin Agricultural College to set up our dorm.
It was an early start on the Friday as the students cared for and prepared the sheep from our new Suffolk Stud for showing, we had a lot of nervous students, with many attending their first agricultural show . We were very pleased with their performance and the school achieved a third place in the Interschool Competition.
The Saturday saw the start of the Junior Judging competition, the students had to judge wool quality as well as judge livestock in the Merino and Poll Dorset section of the competition, again we had some anxious first timers. The highlight from this day was when William Clements was announced as the second placegetter for the Poll Dorset judging section. We had some students step up and take on extra responsibility by helping other studs with the showing of their animals, this provided a great experience for our students to further develop their skills.

Kargil Jammu Kashmir, Kargil Tours, Kargil Jammu Kashmir India, Kargil Tourism, Kargil Tour Travel, Jammu Kashmir Tour Package.
Kargil is the second largest town of Ladakh. It is know for it's beautiful surroundings & advanture sports.
Kargil was once the trade and transit center of the Pan-Asian trade network and has also been the gateway for caravans of silk, brocade, carpets, felts, tea, poppy and ivory to China, Tibet, Yarkand and Kashmir. It is situated at an altitude of 2,704 m above sea level. Famous for apricots, Kargil is the second largest urban center of Ladakh. A haven for adventure lovers and a base for the trekking tours, one may opt for a whole range of activities including trekking, mountaineering, camping and river rafting. An entry point to the wonderland of Zanskar Valley, Kargil is the perfect night stop for the tourists traveling between Srinagar and Leh. It also hosts the popular annual archery contest in May every year and a lazy stroll along the riverbank and up the hillside is rejuvenating.
Dry apricots and apricot jam of the region are delicious and Pashmina shawls, local carpets and woolen handicrafts are some good options to buy from here. The woolens available here are of fine quality that owes itself to the long fleeced mountain goats in the area. The Buddhist monastery of Mulbek Gompa, 45 km from Kargil, boasts of fabulous frescoes and splendid statues. The blooming white apricots in May that turn to fiery orange in August are a visual treat. Trespone and Sankhoo are two imambaras in Kargil that attract tourists with their Turkish style of architecture and are home to the Muslim 'Aghas'. The other place of worship for Muslims is Jama Masjid.

Last month we had the pleasure of capturing one intimate wedding which was held in secret and only a few of the couple's friends knew about it. Their idea was just to enjoy each other somewhere outside in the nature.
The furthest down south that you can go in New Zealand's South Island lies the Gemstone Beach. Washed by the Pacific Ocean it's a windy place where the sea sparkles in the sunset and when the wind stops for a while, sometimes you can hear the sheep grazing on the cliffs.
You know the feeling when you have a certain place to walk in your mind and the other person says it out loud just when you are about to say it. That's what we brought home from our session with Genevieve and Jeremy when we strolled down Shoreditch on one beautiful October Sunday. The guys were so kind and beautiful!
Going to Iceland really makes you think about how unbelievably beautiful our planet is. While making a trip to Hveragerði, we shot a series of photos trying to listen to what the Nature has to say together with beautiful Hjördís, who was amazing both as a model (look her up here) and a friend. She walked in a cold mud for hours and when I asked her if she's ok and doesn't want to put her shoes on, she replied: "Don't worry, I have a Vikings blood in my veins..."

What to Expect at Your First Routine Physical | Markhoff & Mittman, P.C.
There are many reasons people need to have annual physicals. Many employers will require a physical examination to ensure the health and welfare of their employees in certain positions and industries. Some people will be required to get an annual physical for insurance purposes and some will elect to have the exam done each year just to keep tabs on their help.
Your doctor will need to know everything about your past health, current medications and behaviors, and any problems or concerns you are experiencing. You should never hide information from a doctor because it could lead to additional medical complications in the future, especially if this is the first time you’ve been seen by the doctor.
Your doctor will conduct a physical exam that will include testing your vital signs, listening to your heart beat, checking blood pressure, and body temperature. Your doctor will also check your ears, eyes, nose, throat, and lymph nodes for anything unusual. They will check your abdomen for abnormalities, to check liver size, observe any tenderness, and listen for bowel sounds. Your nerves and muscles will be assessed as well as the external parts of your body and skin for any signs of problems or concerns that require further examination.
After a thorough evaluation, the doctor will discuss any issues with you. If there are concerns, a follow up appointment may be scheduled. It is vital that you follow through with any recommendations made by your doctor and reschedule another physical exam for each year in the future.
Physical examinations on an annual basis allow your physician to keep tabs on potential threats to your health. It is a good way to stay in touch with your overall health and ensure any problems are detected early.

So he had no use for mace.
With such a busy job there’s no time for play.
Even though he listened to “How to make friends and influence people” on cassette.
Not knowing where to belong in actuality.
And nothingness that looked like hair.
So that the loneliness could end.
From crying with joy because life was too sunny.
He scared them so much he could eat their screams.
He asked “How do I make this go away?
But he found the cave with imagination as his guide.
Who had the eraser and sat on a thrown.
“Yes I’ll help you,” said the monster.
If he erased himself would the darkness go away?
Would dream land no longer be plagued by the fey?
Releasing the dreamers from these terror binds.
Everything went back to normal and everyone went on their way.
Almost everything went back to normal.

ClicR Technologies – It's all about the solution!
It's all about the solution.
ClicRTechnologies is committed to providing livestock improvement solutions using state of the art computer vision technologies. These technologies commonly refer to the use of a computer, one or more cameras, and advanced algorithms to perform a set of tasks. Our solutions focus on non-contact measurement tasks such as weighing, measuring body dimensions, sorting, and grading quality. With over 9 patents, granted or applied in the past 5 years alone, ClicRTechnologies is decidedly the de-facto innovation leader for livestock improvement solutions.
Besides a strong focus on innovation, ClicRTechnologies is dedicated to providing the best quality solutions and support. We firmly believe that one cannot develop and support a top quality solution being a mere technology integrator, therefore we develop all our advanced algorithms ourselves, write the application software, implement our own firmware, customize the operating systems running on our devices, and develop our back-end servers and web interfaces. ClicRTechnologies also designs and manufactures all the control electronics and the mechanical assemblies. We sometimes use local contractors with whom we have established a long standing relationship. When you talk to a ClicRTechnologies representative, you can rest assured we have answers to all your questions because we build our solutions from the ground up.
For all the techies out there: our solutions employs a variety of techniques and technologies such as digital image processing, machine learning, pattern recognition, point cloud registration, image segmentation, robust and nonparametric statistical analysis, embedded Linux, ARM-based SoC and x86-64 computers. This pretty much sums up the core technologies used by the NASA rover deployed on Mars!
The Gator Solution is a 24 / 7 automated measurement system that is installed in the tanks where alligators are raised. When the alligator crawls on to the scanning station, the software automatically captures the image of the alligator and measures the length, 5th scoot circumference, and weight. The data is then sent to the cloud daily for the user to see.
GatorPad is a mobile tool that is used in the field to keep track of inventory and feed rations and rates.
Cattle are currently weighted with conventional gravity scales. This requires time consuming, labor intensive, round-ups and transportation to a weighing station, resulting in increased cost and trauma to the animals.
The ClicRweight® system provies instant and accurate statistics on each individual animal in their natural environment without any human intervention.
ClicRweight® is a revolutionary weighing system that eliminates the use of gravity-based scales to weigh. It is a total game changer for any commercial or private cattle ranch, dairy farm, and feedlot operation.
The revolutionary ClicRweight® system provides instant information enabling pork producers to manage their operations more efficiently. The system captures the weight of each hog without any human intervention 24 hours a day / 7 days a week. This revolutionary, innovative technological system uses a unique 5’ x 2’ ClicR•Chute™ which provides a water source to position the animal, capture a photo image, accurately calculate and then register it’s weight. The data profile is then automatically transferred and downloaded to the users computer system.
ClicRTechnologies® is committed to the development of new applications combining proprietary technology with current systems to improve the lives of people.
These applications may include trauma centers, pediatrician offices, handicap/amputee patients and beyond.

Today marks a special day in our company’s history as we release our second game, Day of Infamy, on Steam early access. The game is available for $19.99. If you own Insurgency on Steam, you can purchase Day of Infamy as part of the New World Collection bundle at a 15% discount from the combined two games.
We are very excited about what we have to share with you all. It comes not only from hard work, but also from the passion we have for resurrecting the classic WWII action genre many of us grew up with. Since the time Valve licensed the Source Engine for us to develop our spiritual continuation of Day of Defeat, we have found many ways to make the game not only nostalgic, but innovate the genre. We are very excited to see how the public responds to the game’s fire support and radio communication features, and to see the reactions of players when they hear the screams after being set ablaze by a flamethrower.
Without further adieu, we introduce Day of Infamy, and look forward to your feedback for our work in progress game. Similar to how we’ve continually engaged with our community through Insurgency’s early access and thereafter, turning it into the critically acclaimed game it has become, we intend to work closely with our community throughout Day of Infamy’s early access and ensure the final version is truly extraordinary. We have outlined our Roadmap for early access here, for increased transparency.
The game, being in early access, does have its fair share of issues. Occasionally users will experience crashes, gameplay faults, strange AI behaviors, and more. We will work diligently to improve the game quickly and consistently as we approach the final release.
We look forward to playing with you all on the servers!

VLC media player supports many audio and video compression methods and file formats, including DVD-Video, video CD and streaming protocols. It is able to stream media over computer networks and to transcode multimedia files.
The default distribution of VLC includes a large number of free decoding and encoding libraries, avoiding the need for finding/calibrating proprietary plugins. The libavcodec library from the FFmpeg project provides many of VLC’s codecs, but the player mainly uses its own muxers, and demuxers. It also has its own protocol implementations. It also gained distinction as the first player to support playback of encrypted DVDs on Linux and OS X by using the libdvdcss DVD decryption library.

I have been a very lucky cat because I found the best forever home and human mum ever. Some cats aren't so lucky, and that's really sad.
So as it's Charity Tuesday, I've decided to blog about it to help other cats find forever homes too.
And my mum just told me that it is Blog the Change for Animals day too, so how fitting that I decided to post this today!
As an animal advocate, my mum already posts a lot about animal adoption on her blog, but I told her we should do it on mine too because I am a rescue cat, and have my own book out, A Forever Home For Athena, telling the world about my own rescue story, and which I wrote with my mum to help raise money for three of our favourite cat charities.
It was love at first sight for the both of us.
As I was rescued by the London shelter, I wanted to help other cats that are currently there waiting for their forever home too. I hope they are as lucky as I was and get adopted quickly into loving homes.
I know most of you are from US, but for any UK readers, if you live nearby and are looking for a new cat why not check out the Wood Green website for more information? Maybe, just like my mum and me, you will find the purrfect match for you!
Wood Green has cats available for rehoming at three of their shelters - Godmanchester, Heydon and London.
Lioness was brought into the London shelter as her owner could no longer look after her. She is still getting used to shelter life, so is understandably a little shy and nervous. However she loves to be made a fuss off and enjoys the company of people. Lioness is looking for a home with previous cat experience who can help her blossom into a loving member of the family.
It is always so important to be there for animals in need - it sets a good example for other humans!
We agree - there is nothing more rewarding than saving a life.
Athena you and your Mom were very lucky to find one another!
love love love this post! You are a lucky kitty indeed!
Dat's pawsum Athena. So glad you found a furevew home. Meez got vewy lucky tu and got da bestest mommy in da univews. :) Meez happy dat you's like tu help uddew kitty's tu.
We are so happy for you! We dream of happy truly forever homes for all kitties.
Athena, you are so beautiful, and obviously deserve nothing but the best in life. So many of your friends are just like you, and kudos to the shelters like Wood Green that care for them and help them find their own forever homes.
Here's to forever homes for all pets in need!
We are purring for all the animals that need a forever home, we are sads there are so many of them. We hopes they all find a home and the love they deserve.
We agree, Sparkle. Raising awareness is very important.
We know. It could have been so very different. We just hope other kitties and abandoned animals could be too. It's so sad what happens to most of them.
Thank you. Wood Green are one of the best in the UK.
We agree. No animal should be put to sleep just because they cannot find a home. We hope that more and more people care to stop this and realise animals deserve to live just as humans do.
Thank you for sharing your story and for encouraging adoption. There are so many wonderful animals out there looking for homes!

It said Russian President Vladimir Putin oversaw the test launch of the Avangard vehicle from the Defense Ministry's control room.
In Wednesday' test, the weapon was launched from the Dombarovskiy missile base in the southern Ural Mountains. The Kremlin says it successfully hit a designated practice target on the Kura shooting range on Kamchatka, 6,000 kilometers (3,700 miles) away.
Putin named the Avangard, which is among the array of new nuclear weapons that Putin presented in March, saying they can't be intercepted.
Putin said the Avangard has an intercontinental range and can fly in the atmosphere at 20 times the speed of sound. He says "it heads to target like a meteorite, like a fireball."
