This thought from Agamben strikes me when Lyla Rye talks to me about her video projection in the exhibition Are Closer Than at General Hardware Contemporary in Toronto. "I overlay these two types of footage using two projectors, creating a physical superimposition where brightness obliterates while darkness reveals." My mind opens to this, closing my eyes lets me rest from the stimulation and experience actual darkness. Maybe seeing is not believing. Maybe we see nothing when there is too much to see. Rye also lets me know that it should be noted that in the digital world, the opposite is true, darkness on an upper layer makes a lower image recede while brightness on the upper layer highlights the lower.
This reflection on light can also be translated to time and the different ways in which we can experience, feel and comprehend the passing of moments in certain contexts or frames of mind.
Rye often works with video, however perhaps due to her background in architecture and sculpture, it manifests more as a tangible substance. This exhibition features two works, emphasizing video as a material in its physical implementation but also a material that brings awareness to our embodiment – again a sculptural trope. However, sculpture can greet us in its tangible form and satisfy us immediately, video, on the other hand, takes time. In the gallery setting it tests our patience, asking us to step out of our routine, and forces us to pay attention. If we stick with it, we are usually rewarded.
Rye is also known for using her personal (and family-related) footage in her art. At the beginning of her career, Rye’s exhibition Byte featured her baby daughter. The video installation focused on the tender and intimate play between a mother and child, however its exhibition caused controversy leading to censorship. A later installation, Carnal, again reveals Rye’s daughter fully engaged in devouring ice cream in the afternoon sun, seemingly unaware and in the moment. The 2 year old eventually looks up at the last minute (while the video has slowly been enlarging and engulfing the other walls) to acknowledge that she knew we were watching the whole time – perhaps a response to the original controversy. In Are Closer Than, this time we see snippets of video footage that this now teenage daughter has taken on her cell phone.
The composition spanning the entire back wall primarily depicts a section of bed that centres on a pillow, it is empty and still, save for the quick, gentle and almost inaudible fluttering of the pillow case caused by a fan just inside the frame. We are lulled into the quiet hypnotic (yet dull) image. We are suddenly interrupted by snippets of other footage that overlay on the right side of the image and stream along the east wall. Here scenery stretches into abstract form, light becomes geometric - manipulated moving shapes – quick stripes and circles. The snippets disappear as quickly.
We are back to the pillow, waiting, watching. The interrupting snippets become distracting but also mesmerizing. We hear life, shouts, gurgles, bangs, as one might the din of the school ground across the street while stuck inside.
There are two works in the exhibition, the other video, Waiting, is located in the very small ‘tomb-like’ space located downstairs shown on a moderately sized monitor. This area is a lot more intimate – perhaps sheltered, or claustrophobic.
We see only a bland institutional-like wall with a clock, it is 4:30 and from the light through the partially blinded window, we conclude it is afternoon. The only thing that moves is the second-hand, the angle of the camera sits us below, looking up. Perhaps from viewing the pillow upstairs, I assume the thought that I may be lying down.
The work here also hinges on an interruption, this time the camera is knocked by a body that enters the frame, close and cropped, I can only see the ceiling now. This is where we become astutely aware of the body, it is as if our very own head has been violently knocked and we are helpless. The camera (our eyes) very slowly fall back into position – back to the excruciating mundane movement of the second-hand. The clock has gone back two minutes and we are doomed to repeat the slow movement yet again.
This work speaks to time in a few different ways. The footage for both videos comes from a hospital where Rye visited her dying mother over a period of time. It encapsulates a time where there were overlaps in contexts, generations, waiting, thinking, searching and the “in between” – the liminal states of waiting and searching, of context and realization.

What is Friends call me Jim?
Friends call me Jim is a brand new gym and playground for kids aged 2-7. Our mission is to get kids moving and discover joy in motion. Along the way they gain the confidence to use their new skills and stay active every day.
Based in Amsterdam, we offer a fun and innovative alternative for parents whose children are too young to join a sports club and would benefit from classes to develop their motor skills. Or who simply want a place to play, whether its sunny or dreary outside (this is the Netherlands, after all).
The Jim team consists of people with backgrounds in physical education, dance, athletics, sports, art, storytelling and technology. We share a love for moving, and a drive to help children discover the value and pleasure that physical activity can bring them. Now, and throughout their lives.
The Jim Amsterdam interior was designed by Tank Architects. Spacious, stylish and comfortable, our home was developed with both children and parents in mind. The two studios are equipped with soft sports flooring and high quality, custom developed equipment. Each studio has a glass wall so you can see your child’s adventures, trials and tribulations. All while having a coffee and getting some things done if need be.
We also haven’t forgotten about the under 2’s. There’s a corner for playing and reading with your toddler while their brother or sister is on adventure.
What do we mean by fun and innovative?
We’ve created our very own stories, which each feature special Jim characters with their own personality and physical ability: Strong, Bendy, Bounce, Fast and Floaty. Each story includes 10 episodes, or weekly classes in the lightscape or the playscape where kids go on magical adventures with their favourite characters. On the way they develop their motor skills while staying engaged.
What are the lightscape and the playscape?
Ah yes. Friends call me Jim has two very different studios: the lightscape and the playscape. The playscape is our more “traditional” studio, filled with boxes, slides, monkey bars and a climbing wall. The lightscape is a completely new type of gym. In this studio kids play in a virtual world. Lights and projections on the floor become a parcours of hurdles and obstacles that kids journey together to reach an exciting destination.
What is the difference between a story and the playground?
A story is a series of 10 classes, specially developed for kids ages 4 to 7. We currently have four stories: “The Windy Island” and “Jungle Life” (for 4-5 year olds) and “Lost in the City” and “Space Walking” (for 6-7 year olds). Every week, kids go on a new adventure, following the map to reach the next stop. Stories either take place in our lightscape or playscape studio.
The playground is made for 2 and 3 year olds. In individual sessions in our playscape studio, toddlers practice new movements and develop their motor skills. Playground sessions take place together with a parent and experienced coach.
Is Friends call me Jim a virtual reality gym?
Nope. There are no funny glasses here! Instead, we stimulate your child’s imagination with a little help from our original stories and 2D technology. In our lightscape studio lights on the floor become waves to surf, rocks to jump to or paths to follow – and projections on the floor become fish to avoid or leaves to touch.

To workout consistently, you have to have energy. There are times when you are advancing in your workout regimen but you feel faint or tired. Your mind wants you to keep going but your body is telling you to stop.
With an effective supplement, you can keep going. You will want to find a supplement that works for you so you can power up your workout every day.
Nitric oxide is a molecule that is produced in the body and it signals to other cells to help with blood flow and circulation. It penetrates the smooth muscles and it also relaxes the arteries.
It also transmits information between the brain and the nerve cells. It can also defend the immune system and fight off bacteria and produce more energy.
There are many new supplements available on the market. It helps to understand how these supplements will help your body produce nitric oxide.
This molecule is already made in your body and it helps your muscles grow and heal.
When choosing a supplement to make sure to read the ingredients.
There are some formulations that contain ingredients like L-arginine. This is an amino acid which helps improve kidney function and it also helps the body produce natural energy.
Use caution, however. If there is a high percentage of this in the formula it could cause nausea or headaches. This is often experienced by those who take the nitric oxide supplement more than once a day with each workout.
Some people experience rare allergic reactions to arginine supplements. This results in hives, rapid heartbeat, swelling of the face, throat, and neck. These allergic reactions are rare but should be watched for if you are sensitive to allergens.
Nitric oxide has no side effects on its own so be cautious about the other ingredients in the formula that you are purchasing. Different people have different sensitivities to the other ingredients.
Caffeine is often included in supplements. If you are sensitive to caffeine, you should be careful and not drink caffeinated beverages on the days you take your NO supplements.
Once you find a good supplement like Gynectrol and take it before your workout, you will be on your way to getting massive results. Your body will have as much energy as your mind, allowing you to pump more for longer periods.
Nitric oxide will also help your muscles recover after a workout so you not only get more muscle faster but you get the recovery they need so you can do more the next day and the next.
It is a good idea to read online reviews to see which products are trusted. Newer products may be fine, but if you are just starting out taking NO, you are better off starting with products people can already vouch for as being effective.

It was Joseph’s cousin, who was also a friend of Brittany’s, who brought the couple together over six years ago.
it was something more. So while Britt completed university in Townsville the pair maintained their relationship via long distance.
Three years later Britt moved back to Hobart, with Joseph quickly popping the question.
On their third anniversary, Joseph organised dinner at their favourite restaurant, afterwards driving to the beach they used to walk along together and spent a lot of time at even before they were officially dating.
“As we started walking, there were lanterns and candles set up along a path leading around the headland to a candlelit picnic down on the beach. Each lantern on the way had a beautiful handwritten message with it so I knew this was the moment,” Britt confessed.
Suddenly, Joseph got down on one knee and a secret photographer hiding behind the dunes captured the special moment, along with some friends who had helped Joseph set everything up.
“We then got to sit and drink Champagne and eat strawberries on the beach together,” Britt said.
The couple exchanged vows at St David’s Cathedral in Hobart. “We wanted a more traditional ceremony, and we were so amazed by how beautiful the church was, inside and out,” Britt revealed.
After the ceremony, guests enjoyed afternoon tea in the gardens at the church while photos were taken at Kelly’s Steps and GASP: Glenorchy Art and Sculpture Park by photographer Jon Jarvela.
The reception was held at Peppermint Bay; the décor a perfect mix of modern and traditional with both timber and industrial architecture.
The couple agree their relaxed, laidback reception, spent with family and close friends, was the highlight of the day.
Britt and Joseph honeymooned in Vanuatu, spending time at the various islands in the region.

Residential Docks | TechniDock, Inc.
This new design from Technidock is targeted directly at residential and light commercial applications. We told our engineers to design one system that works for both waterfront uses.
When they finally stopped insinuating that we were crazy, they came up with a system that does exactly what we asked. The modular design allows us to ship units via UPS, keeping freight costs at a minimum.
The modules can be configured in many different ways to create simple straight runs, “L”, “T”, or “U” configurations. They can be used as floating docks, freestanding, or pile mounted. Each module is light enough for two people to pick up and carry anywhere they please.
What kind of decking would you like to use?
Our light commercial dock system is available in multiple types of decking including long lasting durable T-Deck, Plastic and Vinyl decking. You pick! Accessories like cleats, colored trim, pile holders, leg holders, rub rail and fancy lighting are readily available. Now did we miss anything? Oh Yes, it is very affordable!

Perfect for the chilly weather of autumn; Cheeky Country Chicken Pie with rough puff pastry.
Sure enough, things are getting cooler here. It was a shocking to get up early for work have to run back inside for a coat. Where did this come from? Just the other week it was warm enough to remind me of the height of summer??
Now, this is not a bad thing. While I do love the summer, and the food it inspires, cooler weather is brilliant. The bounty of the farmers markets beckon, rich dishes that demand to be simple and bold are the mainstays in our house. Usually this involves some form of slowly cooked meat, braised in beer or wine and a bit of butter chucked in for good measure.
Great plan, and I will get to that, however we are also trying to lose weight (although who isn’t) and save a bit of cash. I grew up having a traditional Sunday Lunch, or Sunday Roast, and I proudly carry that on. This past Sunday it was roast chicken, and thus when D and I had finished eating we have a substantial amount of chicken left over.
Never one to want to see food go to waste, instead I made a pie. Yes, diet may not have been the top priority this week. Instead, what we call a cheeky country chicken pie; filled with juicy chicken, fresh veg, tons of herbs and topped with a crispy rough puff pastry.
Enjoying a cheeky country chicken pie, well some cold white wine would do. Maybe a bottle of lager if you want to feel a bit English.
A pie, a cold drink, friend and family. You need some relaxing music, maybe acoustic. Vance Joy’s Mess is Mine seems like a good fit.
4-5 pieces of thyme leaves picked. Add even more if you feel like it.
Meanwhile, time to make filling. First, crisp the bacon in a pan. When crispy, drain and wipe out the pan.
In the frying pan, melt the butter and toss in the garlic. When the garlic is fragrant, add the onion, carrot and celery. Cook for about 5min.
Add the chicken, herbs, and toss to combine. Add the chicken stock, and boil for a few minutes.
Finally, mix the sauce flour with equal water. Pour this into the mixture, stir to combine and turn off the heat. Let the whole mixture cool, about an hour or more.
Heat the oven to 200C. Pour the filling into your pie dish. Meanwhile, roll the pastry to the thickness of a pound coin. Place this over top, with a small slash or two to let air escape. You may need to put a bit of water on the edge of the pie dish to help it stick.
Beat the egg, and brush your the top of the pastry with the egg wash. Place this into the hot oven, and bake for about 30min. When the top is nice and brown, your pie is done. Serve while warm.
This is the perfect dish for using leftover Sunday chicken. I do love a pot pie and I’m all about braising some meat in beer, so I can’t wait so see what you have coming in that department!
Got some good beer braised meats coming coming soon!
Chicken pie is for sure my love language. Your version looks just delicious!
Amazing photos, Matt! And that pie looks seriously amazing. The golden puff pastry top. The deliciously comforting filling. Oh yeah, bring on the cold weather comfort food! The only problem with cold weather comfort food is that it runs afoul of our efforts to lose weight. I’m willing to work out an extra time or two if it means a nice bowl of this cheeky pie, though!
Thanks David, yes an extra jog may have been needed before eating this!
I’m so excited to see a homemade puff pastry recipe, I can’t wait to try that, I always rely on the frozen stuff!
Thanks Sue! It’s a really good pastry, but it’s a rough puff (so less rolling and turns), but is delicious.
Lovin’ this chicken pot pie Matt! Perfect comfort food for fall! Getting this on my list of must trys!
LOVE comfort food like this. Now that the weather is getting cooler around here too, this is just what I want. So wonderful when you first dig the fork into the pastry and all the steam comes out. SO good!
Cheeky indeed! These look SO good.. the perfect fall comfort food. 🙂 These are going on my dinner menu ASAP!
What a delicious looking chicken pie, perfect for this time of year. Love the sound of the veggies and sauce, thanks for sharing.
Thanks Justine, go for it!
Matt, the Cheeky country chicken pie looks scrumptious! And the home made crust is just perfect!
I live in the New England area in the US and the weather is absolutely the same as you described. It went from 70 degrees to 32 degrees last week!
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful dish with us at Fiesta Friday this week!
Glad you like the book, it has changed how I roast beef!
I love pies like this and this is the perfect time of year for them. I look forward to following you on Instagram Matt!
Indeed, I’m kind of happy about days getting cooler. I’ve missed my favorite jackets and scarves so it’s great to finally pull them:) Besides, it’s quite comfortable fall this year here, with slightly crisp mornings and rather warm afternoons. Also, fall days are for something comfort and earthy (and warm) so this combo of chicken, veggies, herbs, and pastry sounds great and just right! Nicely done, Matt!
A wonderful way to use leftovers – you’re right. Sometimes they’re some of the recipes my husband loves so much he wants me to make again! But I can’t reproduce them without the little bit of this and that… Are you in the photograph or did you use a model? Just wondering if you have help with your photography. It’s stunning.
HAHAHA, That would be my other half. I will have to think carefully if I will tell them you thought they were a model! To be honest, it was a quick snap before dinner!
This looks so delicious and healthy! I love this fresh dish. It will be a perfect choice for a winter dinner !

Annualized Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE): This efficiency rating is a ratio that compares how much of the fuel you use in your furnace to the amount turned into useable heat. A better system will have a higher percentage of heat used.
If your system has an AFUE rating of 85, that means the system makes 85 percent of the fuel used into useable heat. Systems that are highly efficient have an AFUE of 90 or higher. Lennox has residential furnaces with ratings up to 98.7—the highest in the industry.
Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER): Both heat pumps and air conditioners use this rating. Much like AFUE, this ratio measures how much of the fuel used to power a home comfort system is converted to cooling output. The higher your unit’s SEER, the more efficiently it runs.
Minimum SEER ratings vary between regions. Choosing a high efficiency model may be more expensive on the front end, but you’ll see greater energy savings throughout the years. Lennox carries air conditioners with SEER ratings up to 26—another industry leading rating.
Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF): Have a heat pump? This will be what you’ll want to take a look at as far as heating efficiency. The higher your heat pump is rated, the more efficient it is. If you want to find a solution that’s ENERGY STAR® efficient, that requires a rating above an 8.2—as well as a SEER rating above 12.
Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV): Air filters have holes that let air and particles to flow through your home. MERV takes a look at the size of the holes. The higher the rating, the smaller the holes in the filter—and a decrease in the number of particles that make their way into your home. If you’re wanting a more efficient filter, find one with a MERV rating of 10 or higher.
Air filters are critical to the quality of air in your home. Make sure to find the rating that works with your home, with your system and change the filter frequently.
Finding an HVAC system that fits with your home, your energy efficiency needs and your desired comfort starts with understanding ratings. If you’re ready to find the model that will work for you, or you have more questions about system ratings, call the pros at Speedy Air Conditioning. You can reach us at 239-244-3439 We’re happy to answer any questions you have and show you options that can work for your home.

It's easy to create a light shadow behind a die cut using a die and wax paper.
Many of us use wax paper between or die and cardstock when die cutting intricate pieces out. It helps to remove the piece without tearing or sticking in the die. When we are finished we often through that die cut piece of wax paper out, but now there's a way that you can use it on your project, too!
For this project, start by creating a background using pastel chalks. Add some chalk directly onto the 4" x 6" piece of cardstock and use your fingers to blend it.
Continue adding different colors and blending them together to complete the look of your background.
Now, place the die you will be using onto the plate of your die cutting machine and place a piece of wax paper on top of it. Next, add a piece of cardstock and run it through the machine.
You should end up with 2 die cut pieces once you are done and have carefully removed both from the die.
Add a little glue using a glue pen or a bottle of glue and a paintbrush to the back of the wax paper cut out and place it onto your chalked background. Place the cardstock die cut piece on top of the wax paper piece being sure to off set it a little to create the shadow.
See how easy it is to create a shadow using something found in your kitchen? Now have some fun and use your favorite dies to create some fantastic pieces for your next project!

After the two successful conferences in 2015 and 2017, we are pleased to invite scholars interested in the history of linguistic ideas developed alongside with different ideologies in different times once more to Georgia.
200 years ago, in 1819, Rasmus Rask after his well-known work “Investigation of the Origin of the Old Norse or Icelandic Language” (1818), traveled to St. Petersburg and Tbilisi (1819).
During this travel he wrote a paper in German on the Languages and Literatures of Norway, Iceland Sweden and Finland (1819). After that Rasmus Rask travelled in Persia, India and Ceylon. He wrote very important works on the authenticity of the Zend language and on the method of expressing the sounds of the Indian Languages in European characters. These works of Rasmus Rask created the strong basis for the historical-comparative linguistics. Due to this reason our conference is dedicated to Rasmus Rask and 200 years history of comparative and areal linguistics.
The conference will be held on 12-14 September 2019 at Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University (Tbilisi, Georgia).
Papers relating to any aspect of the history of linguistic ideas developed alongside with ideologies are invited, focusing on diverse topic areas from individual case studies to methodological considerations. Especially the papers on the history of comparative and areal linguistics are very welcome.
The official languages of the conference are Georgian and English.
The deadline for submission of abstracts is 20 June 2019. The conference editorial board will select the papers to be presented at the conference. Final selection will be made by 30 June 2019; notification of acceptance will be sent before 5 July 2019.

text: The fixed-orifice flowmeters are designed for low flow applications, from 0-2 to 0-40 GPH. Like the variable-area flowmeters they are built from solids blocks of metal making them a favorite for high line pressure applications, to 3000 psi. You will find many in hydraulic and pneumatic systems. Though rugged, they maintain the sensitivity required for low flow measurements.We use a fixed Delrin orifice centered on a spring-loaded Buna-N diaphragm-magnet sensor, which provides sensitive responses to changes in flow. This diaphragm sensor is magnetically coupled to a pointer, which relays the flow rate onto an easy to read square-root calibrated dial. These in-line flowmeters often replace rotameters, which have small scales that can be difficult to read, especially with dirty or opaque fluids.

In 2013, the MIT Media Lab started creating a new version of Scratch, a graphical, block-based programming language used by tens of millions of kids to create and share interactive stories, games, and animations. We partnered with the Media Lab on this new version of the language—Scratch 3.0—and the Google Blockly team developed the programming language’s graphical coding blocks. OurCS First program, which offers kids in fourth through eighth grades Scratch coding lessons, also created new activities designed to teach Scratch’s new features.
On January 2, Scratch 3.0 launched with a new look, new sprites (digital characters that perform actions in a project), backdrops (backgrounds), sounds, and extensions—plus, it’s now available on tablets. To help educators get ready for Scratch 3.0, we’ve created a comprehensive help article that includes support documents and videos featuring the new interface and customizable lesson plans.
I recently caught up with Mitchel Resnick, who leads the group at MIT that develops Scratch, to talk about the programming language and what’s new in version 3.0.
What is Scratch 3.0 and why is it cool?
Scratch 3.0 is a new version of Scratch that expands how and what students can create with code. We’re excited to see the diverse and creative projects that students will develop with it.
What are your favorite features of 3.0?
I love the Scratch 3.0 “extensions.” Each extension gives students an extra set of coding blocks to take Scratch’s capabilities even further. With new robotics extensions, students can use Scratch to program motors, lights and sensors. With the Google Translate extension, students can program characters to speak in other languages. As the library of extensions continues to grow, Scratch will have even more capabilities.
If you had to choose a sprite to represent yourself, which would you choose and why?
I’d choose the Ten80 Dance sprite. I’m a really bad dancer myself and wish I had moves like these.
What are some of the new sprites and backdrops?
We worked with artists and illustrators (including long-time Scratcher ipzy) to create a diverse collection of new sprites and backdrops. You’ll find new fashion sprites, animals, snacks, cars and more. Do you want to create a fantasy world with centaurs, griffins and unicorns? How about a game set in outer space? Are you into sports or dancing or dinosaurs? Whatever you’re interested in, we think there’s something for everyone in Scratch 3.0.
What are some Scratch 3.0 features that educators will like?
Educators will appreciate the new video tutorials in Scratch 3.0—there are tutorials to help students get started, explain new features and support new types of projects. We also worked closely with the CS First team to ensure that CS First videos and activities are ready for use with Scratch 3.0. Plus, Scratch 3.0 works on many different platforms, including touch devices like tablets—and there’s a desktop version of Scratch 3.0, so you can still use Scratch 3.0 even if you don’t have an internet connection.
Scratch 3.0 is live in CS First now, so be sure to check out its new look and features. To get some inspiration for your next creation, head to theonline community to see others’ Scratch projects.

Moderated by Rodale Institute’s Annie Brown, this engaging Natural Products Expo East 2018 panel discussion centers around the importance of collaboration in organic farming, and what it all means in light of the Farm Bill vote.
Annie Brown, director of development, Rodale Institute: moderator.
Andrew Bahrenburg, national policy director, National Young Farmers Coalition: Founded in 2010 to fight for young farmers to have a seat at the table in policy discussions; creating a social network of young farmers to trade expertise and support, especially in rural areas.
Karen Washington, farmer and community activist, Rise & Root Farm: Grew up in the concrete jungle of New York City and didn’t make the connection on how powerful growing food and eating healthy was until she started growing her own food.
Cate Hollowitsch, community engagement manager, Organic Valley: One of the largest organic cooperatives in the nation, with more than 2,000 family farms across about 35 states.
Steve Geest, MOM’s Organic Market: Environmentalists who happen to run a grocery store; organics is the path to fulfilling the grocers' environmental mission; in business since 1986, with 19 stores, many in the Washington, D.C., and Baltimore, area.
Two-thirds of U.S. farmland is currently managed by someone aged 55-plus; what happens to that farmland in the future will determine everything, Bahrenburg said.
Consumers respond both to quality and a good story; if we’re out there telling the story, organics will continue to grow, Geest said.
The transparency behind your products, the farming methods, the production processes, and all the other parts along the way are what’s going to help drive the consumer to trust the organic seal more than any other seal that’s out there, Hollowitsch said.
The Pocono Raceway (NASCAR) asked Rodale for help in converting all farmland around the racetrack to organic (40,000 acres) and it wants to serve a full organic menu to attendees, Brown said.
A 50-50 joint venture with conventional company Dean Foods would bring organic products to large parts of the U.S. that Organic Valley can’t get to on our own, Hollowitsch said.
In Chester, New York, a group of investors purchased 120 acres of land specifically for young farmers, with a 30-year renewable affordable lease, Washington said. The investment will maintain organic practices and eventually certification.
Many of our members are members of the Farm Bureau; they bring our policy literature to the table at those meetings, Bahrenburg said.
“Lobby days” through various trade organizations tell legislators the story of what organics can bring to their communities, Geest said.
Companies and individuals provide financial support to help young interns learn about organic farming through Rodale’s Next Generation Scholarship Fund, Brown said.
The training piece is especially important for “first-generation farmers” who didn’t grow up on farms, Bahrenburg said.
This session—Friday Keynote: The Big Ideas in Organic/Panel Discussion—was recorded at Natural Products Expo East 2018.

Eat, sleep, art, repeat describes the typical life of an art student at Colorado State University.
Art students Kayla Moore, Matt McHugh and Lacy Bradord hang out before starting their 17-hour Bauhaus-inspired drawing marathon.
On Friday, November 6th, 11 drawing concentration students switched that up from 7 – 12 p.m. the following day, when they spent a night in the studio drawing, collaborating and forgoing sleep all in the name of art.
Ajean Ryan, drawing professor, started the drawing marathon when she started teaching at CSU in 2010.
Ryan was inspired from the philosophy developed from the Bauhaus movement, an art school in Germany famous for the combined crafts and the fine arts.
She got the idea from Bauhaus artist Joseph Beuys who would take his students on nature and urban pilgrimages to get them outside of the classroom.
Moore echoed her teacher’s sentiments.
Art student Holly Nordeck works on her roadkill-inspired drawings during the 17-hour art marathon.
Senior art student Nisty Tharp said that this creative space forced students to be open.
“I think a lot of your best work comes when you’re not thinking about it too hard,” Tharp said.
As well as working on their individual pieces for the night, together the students created an image from the biblical story of the tower of Babel.
They were inspired by a collaboration of artists who had created different layers of the tower in their own style.
“We’re creating a space together,” Moore said.

Riyad dropped the stack of books loudly on the counter of Alan’s shop, hoping that the noise would draw the proprietor to the front of the store. He was too tired to care if he damaged the bindings, and had just enough of a hangover to have no problem ignoring the fact that the volumes, which had made it through the Cataclysm, really should have been kept in a sealed vault, not in the back room of a rundown shop with blackout curtains hanging in the front display windows.
They had drunk the last of two bottles of Du’shan’s coconut wine the night before during their private memorial, and tomorrow he would have to dress all in white and kneel on a hard floor for hours during the funeral proper. Nyr had slept in Du’shan’s bed every night since the attacks; Riyad had no patience for any complaints Alan might level at him about the books.
The street where Alan’s shop was located had been seedy before the demon attacks, but now it looked like bombs had gone off in every other storefront. There was masonry and glass and what might have been blood in the walkways. Only Alan’s shop seemed to have escaped the destruction, and Riyad wondered if Quinn had anything to do with it. The demon had never seemed as savage as the attacking monsters had been; his presence alone might have bought him immunity from an attack on his own territory. Looking around the store, Riyad couldn’t see any signs that there had been a struggle on any level, and it occurred to him that this probably would have been the safest place to be that night.
Du’shan had been saving the wine: one bottle for Riyad’s marriage day and one bottle for the birth of his first child. Riyad closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose with his thumb and forefinger, but his mouth curled into a caustic smile. It had been wishful thinking on Du’shan’s part to think he’d ever live to see the day that Riyad Shihar would marry and have a family.
Riyad turned toward the voice and for a moment froze in animal panic at the figure standing in the curtained doorway behind the counter. Quinn gazed back at him with dark eyes and moved forward to stand across from him while Riyad was busy forcing the terror out of his muscles. The affected slowness with which Quinn moved only exaggerated the animal grace rippling beneath his skin.
Riyad gripped the edge of the glass display case. How could this thing call Alan his father? How could Alan allow him to stay after everything that had happened, no matter what the two of them had gone through together?
Quinn eyed him searchingly. One of his ears twitched again, lifting as though he could hear some faint noise in the back of the shop that was beyond Riyad’s ability to pick up. The tip of his tail flicked back and forth like a cat’s.
He searched Quinn’s eyes, but only saw his own face looking back at him.
Riyad’s mind reeled at the thought that Du’shan had already been dead as he’d been ripped open. Something in the vicinity of his stomach unknotted. It was as though he had been forgiven a sin. Du’shan had saved him without having to suffer in his place. He didn’t feel so guilty about drinking the dead man’s wine, in that case.
As he mused in silence, Quinn reached out and plucked at the chain around Riyad’s neck until the cross beneath his shirt was revealed. Quinn held the pendant in the palm of his hand, gazing at it with an expression that shifted from curious to contemptuous.
Riyad blinked up at him, looked down at the little cross, and then back up at Quinn. Somehow, he hadn’t been startled by that spindly hand reaching for him, and it occurred to him that the demon’s motions were restrained, as though he was holding himself back. Was it to keep Riyad calm, or was it because there was something more savage in him that he didn’t want to lose control of?
“What is it?” Riyad asked, but Quinn said nothing.
“The... What?” Bewildered, Riyad shook his head, letting his curls obscure his vision. Nothing seemed to make sense anymore.
Riyad stared unseeing at the creature in front of him, his mind in the metal and glass container he’d made the crossing in. The fog that obscured his vague memories of that time was rolling away, and he felt the echoes of a psychosis that was half awed terror and half ecstasy.
Mind reeling again, Riyad looked around the shop. The bottles and books and charms that surrounded him seemed like they belonged to a world that was far away, ordinary and recognizable in a way nothing else seemed to be anymore. A gentle, long-fingered hand on his shoulder brought his attention back to the demon behind the counter.
“Thank you for bringing the books back.” Quinn’s ear was twitching again, angling back. Riyad wondered what it was he was listening to.
“...Thanks,” Riyad said after a moment, although he wasn’t sure if it was encouragement or a warning.
“Yes. You will.” Quinn gathered the books on the counter and disappeared behind the curtain with a flick of his tail.
Riyad stood there a moment more before leaving the store. The bell on the door chimed as he exited; the cheerful noise seemed to fill the desolate street.

In 1966, Ford scored a now legendary 1-2-3 win in the world's most famous motor race, the Le Mans 24 Hours. Three more overall wins followed in 1967, '68 and '69. The car was known as the GT40 and, on the 50th anniversary of that first victory, Ford will be back at Le Mans in 2016 with this all-new GT.
The Le Mans 24 Hours is part of the World Endurance Championship, a race series that's seriously challenging Formula One for racing spectacle, cool cars (the top LMP1 category includes Porsche, Audi and Toyota), and forthright drivers and personalities. Ford's WEC campaign doesn't disappoint - it'll be run by US motorsport giant and IndyCar and NASCAR hero, Chip Ganassi, with British drivers Marino Franchitti and Andy Priaulx among the line-up.
But the best bit, as you can see, is the car. It's a competition version of the new road-going GT supercar, which uses a lightweight carbon fibre chassis and deploys state-of-the-art aerodynamics. The various different categories in top-flight endurance racing also promote advanced hybrid technologies, to maximise efficiency as well as performance. Precisely why the GT uses Ford's 600bhp twin-turbo EcoBoost V6 shackled to a yet-unknown electric drivetrain.
"As we developed the Ford GT, from the outset we wanted to ensure we had a car that has what it takes to return Ford to the world of GT racing," says Raj Nair, Ford's chief technical officer. "We believe the Ford GT's advances in aerodynamics, light-weight and EcoBoost power will make for a compelling race car that can once again compete on a global stage."
Want to see one? Two Ford GTs will also contest the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship in the US, the plan being to bring the two teams together for a four-car assault on Le Mans in June in the LM GTE Pro category. As well as Le Mans, the 2016 WEC calendar includes six-hour endurance races at Silverstone (April), Spa (May), the Nürburgring (July), Mexico City (September), the US (Circuit of the Americas, September), Japan (Fuji, October), China (Shanghai, November), and Bahrain (November).

It was really significant that the coffin of Jalal Talebani, the ex-Iraqi president, was wrapped by the national flag of Kurdistan rather the flag of Iraq, during his funeral in his hometown As-Suleimanyyah.
What we are now witnessing is a virtual ‘divorce’ between the ‘Kurdish political mood’ in northern Iraq and all the Arabs. Even if this ‘divorce’ is neither final nor official yet, it is indeed a psychological ‘divorce’ the reality of which could not be diluted by polite and tactful words.
With a psychological ‘divorce’, as the one we see today in Iraq, Arabic and Islamic names such as Jalal, Mas’oud, Mustafa, Salaheddin and Ahmad Mukhtar are fast disappearing only to be replaced with Kurdish names like Kameran, Dilshad and Showan. Given this fact, it is highly unlikely to maintain a ‘friendship’ between neighbours, as friendships require trust. Personally, I reckon the Kurdish leadership does not trust the Arabs anymore, and many Arabs no more view the Kurds as partner in destiny, history and geography.
Of course, no one must blame Iraq’s Kurds for their negative attitude, given the suffering under Saddam Hussein’s authoritarianism and Nuri Al-Maliki sectarian subservience (to Iran). However, it would not be fair that the Kurds should regard their long association with their fellow Iraqis - indeed, the Arabs - as an ‘unequal’ relationship, whereby the Arabs discriminated against them and sought to marginalise and even obliterate the Kurd’s national identity.
It is true that there are ‘factional’ trends throughout the Arab world, but they are not really different from what is prevalent in similar societies. Some, in many cases, are religious or sectarian; but mostly they are tribal and clannish. Noteworthy, here, is that with periods of extremist chauvinism aside, Arabs in the Near East had no problem living under a Kurdish prime minister or a Kurdish provincial governor; and for that matter, never minded living under a Turkmen, Circassian or Bosnian prime minister of governor. Before the Ottoman Turks ruled the Near East for four centuries, the region lived also for centuries under the (Kurdish) Ayyubi dynasty and the (Turkic, Mogul and Circassian) Memlukes, and yet there are no records of Arabs maltreating the Kurds simply because they were Kurds!
Later, under the two periods of the British Mandate and Independence, I - a son of a father who lived with and befriended the Kurds for years - know of no specific anti-Kurds discrimination. Actually, in ‘post 1920 Iraq’ as well in previous periods the Kurds lived almost like every other Iraqi community; and from their ranks rose prominent figures since the Independence such as Jalal Baban, Jamal Baban, General Bakr Sidqi, Musleheddin Naqshbandi, and Ahmad Mukhtar Baban …Iraq’s last prime minister before the ‘republican revolution’ of 1958.
All the above are facts; and any Arab not inclined to delusions and self- loathing, must realise the dangers faced by the Region; indeed, more than our region if we look further and see what is happening in Western Europe, and America too.
The concept of the ‘nation-state’ is relatively recent, and so are ‘national boundaries’. Germany, the leading country in central and western Europe did not develop its ‘national identity’ except in the 19th century. Before that, the ‘Wars of Spanish Succession’ (1701-1714) following the death of King Charles II of Spain without an heir, set in motion great political developments and redrew the map of Western Europe.
Then, in Eastern Europe, when was the ‘nation-state’ born? What happened in the Caucasus? How did the Russian Empire grow? How did its peoples, ethnic groups, religious and linguistic groups exist even before diversity was – one way or another recognized in the former USSR? Isn’t what is taking place in the Ukraine today a carryover from the old heritage shared and fought over between its Orthodox East and Catholic West … with its partial Polish dimensions?
A big problem with our dangerously unstable world lies in trying to agree on definitions; as there is a disagreement on defining political terms as well as interests.
After Brexit, Europe is no more a dream of great pioneers like Robert Schuman, Charles De Gaulle, Konrad Adenauer and Paul-Henri Spaak. Europe now needs to redefine itself as an idea, a political term, as well as vital interests. The ‘national unity’ of its entities is no more a forgone conclusion, but is now rather dependent on several considerations, conditions and counter-conditions.
Scotland is now waiting for a rise in world oil prices, Catalonia is trying to avoid economic boycott, and other dreamers pursuing secessionist projects are now diligently working out their feasibility far from the slogans of integration, and inclusive ‘Western Civilization’, in the midst of the struggle between ‘expansive’ globalization and ‘reclusive’ racism.
Well. Let’s leave Europe for a moment and look at North America. Is it now more cohesive?
Donald Trump, the president of the USA, the greatest immigrant destination in the ‘New World’, is keen on building a ‘dividing wall’ along the borders with Mexico in order to separate the two nations and prevent incoming immigrant from the south, while insisting that poor Mexicans pay for it! He also wants to ‘stop exporting’ American jobs to Mexico in the hope that the USA maintains its economic well being and industrial base, thus, making Mexico’s poor even poorer, and more insistent on immigrating, despite the ‘wall’.
Across the America’s northern borders, however, Canada’s young Liberal premier Justin Trudeau is happy to head a record-breaking ethnically, linguistically and religiously diverse cabinet, which he describes as “a cabinet that looks like Canada”. Lately, after Trudeau’s appointment of a Lebanese-Canadian as Canada’s new Chief Science Adviser, the opposition’s Left-leaning New Democratic Party elected a young lawyer of Indian Sikh origins as its leader.
It is this real world that our folks, the Kurds, need to recognize before they reach the point of no return against the principles of ‘friendship’ and ‘good neighbourliness’.
Geography dictated that peoples of the world cannot chose their ‘neighbours’, but they can choose to make them either ‘friends’ or ‘enemies’.
Furthermore, millions or tens of millions do not automatically qualify any group for independence; otherwise, why is Uttar Pradesh (with a population of more than 204 million people) is a state in India just like Manipur (inhabited by only 3 millions)?
Both Turkey and Iran are currently opposing the referendum of Iraq’s Kurds, relying on their size, influence and exploitation of the current interests in international affairs. The same applies to Spain as it opposes the Catalonian referendum. It is also worth mentioning here that the USA would not have been the power it is today had it accepted the secession of the southern Confederate States.
In politics, proper calculations are a must; and they should take into account not only internal wishes, but also external conditions.
It is vital to appreciate the dangers of bad timing and double-standards, and also changes of governments and shifts in alliances.

Madison, Wis. (Nov. 9, 2016) – Edgewood College invites Greater Madison to a free performance of “Ben Franklin & Baron von Steuben vs. the Paine County School Board,” on Monday, November 14, 6:30pm, in Anderson Auditorium. Huge on humor and heart, this original play from Madison’s TAPIT/new works Ensemble Theater, also has serious messages about inclusion in schools, and relating across differences, just in time for the post-election season.
The play chronicles the action that ensues when Ben Franklin and Baron von Steuben realize what's happening in the Paine County School District, where a history teacher’s revelation about von Steuben leads to controversy. Danielle Dresden’s script transforms controversy to comedy as Franklin and von Steuben risk an intervention in contemporary affairs to correct the record.
The performance, in two acts with a ten-minute intermission, showcases the work of director and Theatre Arts graduate Emily Morrison Weeks ‘14.
Morrison Weeks is “thrilled to have the opportunity to return to the place that taught me so much, to share this play.” She credits her hands-on involvement in productions, coursework, and professors with developing her multi-faceted capacity in Theatre Arts.
“I’ve gone on to use my training to work as a director, actor, children’s theatre teaching artist and program director, makeup artist, stage manager, and as an associate producer for stage and film,” she said.
Dresden and Donna Peckett, producing artistic directors of TAPIT/new works, play the parts of von Steuben and Ben Franklin. The cast also includes Francisco Torres, Krystal Lonsdale, Liz Light, and Issac Brieske. Costume designer Rebecca Stanley rounds out the creative team.
Ben Franklin & Baron von Steuben vs. the Paine County School Board is sponsored by the School of Education, the School of Integrative Studies, the Department of Theatre Arts, the COR General Education Program, the Office of Student Diversity and Inclusion, the Women’s and Gender Studies Program, and the Social Science Department, with additional funds from DANE ARTS and an Edgewood College Educational Programming Board grant.

An aquarium may develop a hard white film around the top of the glass that can seem impossible to remove. For obvious reasons -- they're extremely toxic -- you can’t use household cleaning chemicals in an aquarium. But you can remove the white buildup. Afterward, prevention is straightforward.
The white deposits on the rim occur as water evaporates, leaving calcium or salt minerals. In a freshwater tank, calcium remains; in a saltwater or brackish tank, it could be either. Any deposits below the water line are calcium. Salt deposits come away with wetting and a little scrubbing, but you’ll probably need to dismantle the tank for the removal of calcium. Often called lime, this is the same stuff that builds up in a kettle in areas with hard water.
Remove some of the water as you normally do for routine water changes, and tackle the salt while the water level is well below the deposits. Dampen a paper towel or clean sponge with dechlorinated water, blot the salt and leave it for a few minutes. Scrub and sponge it away, taking care that most of it doesn’t fall back in the tank -- a little shouldn't change the salinity much. Replace the water as normal.
Dismantle the tank completely, transferring any remaining aquatic pets to another fully cycled aquarium in the same manner as you would when bringing new ones home. Sponge the calcium deposits with white vinegar and let it sit for an hour. Scrub and repeat as necessary. In the case of stubborn deposits, carefully scrape them off with a razor blade. Rinse the tank thoroughly before putting it back together and beginning the cycling process all over again. This is a good time to sterilize rocks and gravel by boiling them.
Both salt and calcium deposits occur as water evaporates, but prevention is not complicated. First of all, confirm you're conducting sufficient partial water changes through the use of nitrite, nitrate and ammonia test kits. Nitrite and ammonia levels should be indiscernible, while nitrate should be extremely low except in certain specialized tanks. If they are fine, continue with your normal routine, but mark the water level on the outside of the glass with permanent marker or a sticker. Top up the tank with distilled water as required. Never use any other water to replace that lost through evaporation, as this would lead to the buildup of minerals in the tank water, possibly to lethal levels.

Have you ever seen a picture of a dessert that made you stop and want to make it right away?
That’s how I feel about these Lemon Meringue mini-tarts.
Aside from being delicious, the other best thing about these treats are just how easy they are to make.
The lemon curd brings the tart while the meringue provides the sweet in this delicious combo of flavors nestled in a flaky crust.
If you’re in a hurry, you can pick up store-bought lemon curd but if you’re feeling especially ambitious, you can make your own.
I’m including the lemon curd recipe below that I used for that lovely lemon cheesecake I made last year.
Homemade lemon curd does take a bit of time to make but it’s oh-so delicious.
Beat butter and sugar in stand mixer until blended. Add eggs and egg yolks, 1 at a time, beating just until blended after each addition.
Gradually add lemon juice to butter mixture and beat until blended.
Transfer mixture to a heavy 4-quart saucepan and cook, whisking constantly over medium heat until mixture thickens and easily coats the back of a spoon, about 14 minutes.
Chill untli firm (about 4 hours).Refrigerate in an airtight container up to 2 weeks.
How gorgeous is this meringue?
It’s so creamy, soft and fluffy and it only requires three ingredients including water, granulated sugar and meringue powder.
All you have to do is dissolve the sugar in the boiling water. Allow to cool and then add the meringue powder and whisk in a stand mixer until soft peaks form.
Now, I know you’re probably wondering how I got those pretty swirls in the meringue, right?
That effect is created by using a decorative piping tip.
I used a Wilton 1m, which is bigger than a typical metal tip… but is definitely worth having one in your kitchen arsenal.
I put together a short, one minute video to show you how I made this pretty dessert.
I’ve been practicing using my IPhone to create short videos of my various baking efforts and I wanted you to see what my setup looks like.
My hubby gave me a field monitor for Christmas last year and it’s been not only great to use with my DSLR camera, it also helps when using the video feature on my phone.
Because the phone needs to be pretty high to capture my hands and the dessert, the field monitor allows me to see what I’m videotaping without trying to peek over the top of the phone.
NOTE: You’ll need an IPhone adapter and an HDMI cable to use a monitor with the phone.
This video was fun to make (and of course, I’m loving my new field monitor).
I’m going to try to include more video demonstrations in upcoming blog posts.
So, stay tuned for more food in motion around here.
Whisk together the flour and salt. Work in the butter until pea-sized pieces form.
Add the egg yolk and ice water.
Toss until the dough comes together, adding more water as needed.
Divide the dough in half, wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes.
preheat the oven to 400F. Lightly grease the wells of the mini tart pan.
Roll one disk of dough about 1/8" thick. Cut 3" fluted circles.
Place the circles into the wells of the pan and prick the base of each crust with a fork.
Bake the crusts for about 12 minutes until pastry is golden brown.
They will shrink and puff a bit but that's perfectly fine.
Remove the pan from the oven and leave the crusts int he pan.
Dissolve the sugar in the boiling water.
Allow to cool to room temperature, then add the meringue powder and beat until stiff peaks form.
Fill the baked cups with lemon curd, then pipe or dollop the meringue on top.
Bake the filled tarts for 7-10 minutes until the meringue is lightly browned.
Remove the pies from the oven. When they're cool enough to handle, transfer them from the pan to a rack to cool completely.
Looks so yummy! I’m throwing a baby shower for my dil and these seem like a nice addition. I may cheat and buy filo cups for that tho lol. I didn’t know about meringue powder either, so thanks for that great tip!
Karen, these tarts would be perfect for a baby shower.
They’re so bite-size and pretty.
I think you’ll like the meringue powder. No change in taste and no waste of good egg yolks.
Good luck for a beautiful and delicious baby shower.
Lisa these were a hit at the baby shower, thank you! I have a question tho. I couldn’t get the meringue to brown the slightest bit and the meringue ended up with the slightest bit of crunch to them. Assuming this was because I left them in a bit longer than directed trying to get that nice browning on top. It didn’t effect the taste but was wondering why they didn’t brown? This was my first time using powdered meringue.
Karen, I’m so glad your guests enjoyed the tarts.
Hmmm, I’m not sure why your tarts did not brown.
I’ll have to do some research on that. I’ll let you know if I come up with an answer to that.
I’m happy to hear it didn’t impact the taste or presentation.
Thanks so much for letting me know too. I appreciate the feedback.
Looks wonderful. I’m going to find out more about the meringue product. Always appreciate that you provide a printable recipe.
I like using the meringue powder because it eliminates having to waste egg yolks that I have no use for.
There’s no change in the taste either.
Let me know if you try the tarts. I think you’ll enjoy making them.
Love this, Lisa! Especially the video.
Hope you try your hand at the tarts. You’ll enjoy them.
OK Lisa…you have truly gone ultra pro!!! Love the video! …. If you ever decide to branch out and do classes on food photography, etc, I will be the first one to knock on your door with my tuition in hand!!! Amazing Lisa! You’re the best! Oh and the tarts look so delicious!
Oh, thanks so much, Shirley.
You’re such a sweet friend and supporter and I really appreciate you.
What a great post and fastastic video. As always, your pictures are lovely. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
Beautiful!! You are so inspiring. I never knew that about the meringue powder… I’ve always just used egg whites. How much easier!! Thanks too for sharing your video tips. Now if I could only put them to work. LOL I need to get doing video. All the best, sweet friend!!
Diane, do try the meringue powder (it’s actually made from dried egg whites).
I think it’s so much easier because I just hate tossing out so many egg yolks.
Thanks so much. You know I’m happy to inspire. If you make these tarts, let me know how they turned out for you.
They’re actually pretty foolproof and so pretty when they’re done. You’ll enjoy making them.
Your tarts look scrumptious . Thank you for sharing your recipe.
Glad you like them, Alice.
Also, it’s a KAF recipe but I still appreciate your sweet sentiment.
I am going to make these,for sure! love lemon:) Like how you videotaped the process as well.
You’ll definitely enjoy making (and eating) these.
Haven’t checked out your video yet but am super excited you are including video. Your LM mini tarts look scrumptious.
We still have to do lunch one day.
Beautiful photos! Did I overlook the recipe for Meringue using the powder?
Hi Brenda, no you didn’t overlook it.
I just check and neither recipe is showing up.
Checking on that now and will fix or re-enter recipe.
Hi Brenda, thanks for the heads-up.
I just re-entered both the curd and the full tart recipe.
Yummy. I’d love to make a batch of these. But even more I’d love to see a video on using the field monitor. I had never heard of this before and am interested in how it works.
That’s a great idea, Peggy.
I’ll see what I can do to better illustrate how I use a field monitor for video and still photography use.
Glad you like the tarts too.
I love the new look!! And the light and airy feel. WOW, Lisa! You are such an inspiration to me. Now that I’m doing videos with my iPhone – I’ll be looking for a field monitor for it and my camera. And I’m like you I love KAF products and if they came tapping at my door to work with them I’d fling that door open and give a big resounding “YES!” Was your field monitor hard to set up? Sending huge hugs!!
Yes, I’m a big fan of KAF stuff too. I love that they are employee-owned too.
The field monitor was no problem at all to to set up.
I just need that Apple phone adapter as well as an HDMI cable. Any salesperson at your local electronic store can help with both.
Just plug them in and turn on the monitor and VIOLA.
Good luck. You know you can email me directly (or call me) if you need more help.
They are making my mouth water! Beautiful photos too as always. I have never heard of meringue powder! I have always made my meringue with egg whites.
I’ve used egg whites for meringue before also but I hate wasting the egg yolks.
The meringue powder is actually made from dried egg whites. Very convenient.
I’ve used meringue powder for my French Macarons too because it helps to stabilize the raw egg whites.
I didn’t think about using the meringue powder for macaroons; what a great idea! This is why I go to websites like yours…for wonderful ideas and experiences. Thank you so much for sharing!
