Many Solaris systems I come across nowadays have had the window functionality removed/disabled from the user's menu or desktop. Why? The system administrator doesn't want prying eyes or users tinkering around and causing problems. But as a systems administrator, this modification can be quite frustrating during a troubleshooting effort. Here's what I do to get around that particular inconvenience/modification. Obviously, this trick can be disabled, too.
This will give you the default menu and the option to display a UNIX window. After you are done with the window, return the desktop to the customized environment via the default menu's restart the workspace manager option.
Oftentimes you will want to view the contents (subdirectories) of a directory but may not want to change directories. Why? Traversing deep directories takes valuable time.
Here's what you can do with the ls (list) command coupled with few options and then pipe the output to the more command.
This command syntax will allow you to view the contents in a long list format (l), in time order (t), reverse time sort order (r) and recursively (R). The more command will control the flow of the output.
Here's an example of what you will see.
A colleague of mine wanted to email the results of a virus scan to various IT personnel. Upon the completion of the scan's cronjob, the mail system was configured to mail the results to the IT group (via mail alias).
I'm going to give an example of configuring a GigaSwift network interface card in a Sun Blade workstation. For this example, you will have to reboot your box, but you can configure the card online, too.
Often I'm asked for IP information. If I don't know it from the top of my head, I will use the ifconfig command to ascertain it. This command gives you interface type, Internet Protocol address (IP), netmask, and broadcast address.
Here are a few ways to gracefully reboot a Sun workstation.
#init 0 -- This will bring the system down to the PROM level. You will have to manually type in "boot" to get the system to return to init 3 (usually normal operating state).
#init 6 -- This will take your workstation to init 0 and then automatically reboot to init 3 (usually normal operating state).
If you want to gracefully shutdown the system, you can use this command.
#init 5 -- This will bring the system down to the PROM level and then power the workstation down.
If you want to warn your users prior to reboot, use the shutdown command. This example will reboot in 60 seconds and will boot using init 6 state.

Most animal lovers understand that our world is far from perfect. Having seen the highs and lows of caring about our four legged friends, we've decided that the human animal relationship is a worthy investment. Every new year brings new lessons and new challenges. Looking ahead, here are some ideas for putting our best paws forward.


Every day our changing climate pushes us closer to an environmental catastrophe, but for most the problem is easy to ignore. As people we often find it difficult to face change. We'd rather be in denial.
David Hallquist, CEO of a Vermont utility, has made it his mission to take on one of the US's largest contributors to this global crisis, our outdated and vulnerable electric grid. Under David's leadership his utility was one of the first to implement a smart grid. In order to make the widespread use of renewable energy sources practical, David argues, we first have to build a smart grid which uses digital communications technology to detect and react to local changes in usage, thereby decreasing outages and increasing efficiency.
But when his filmmaker son, Derek, tries to tell his father's story, the film is soon derailed by a staggering family secret, one that forces Derek and David to turn their attention toward a much more personal struggle, one that can no longer be denied. With stunning access to intimate family moments and behind-the-scenes energy deals, and with unique humor in the face of overwhelming events, DENIAL manages to present insights into two important topics – one global and one personal – through a funny, informational, and enormously compelling personal narrative, and at the same time to throw light on the messy business of change.

Tardive dyskinesia – valbenazine
Research | Regulatory
There are currently no approved treatments for tardive dyskinesia, and the symptoms are frequently irreversible
Tardive dyskinesia is a hard-to-treat condition characterised by repetitive and involuntary movements of the limbs – sometimes to the extent of making walking difficult – and other movements such as lip smacking and puckering, grimacing, tongue protrusions and excessive blinking. There are currently no approved treatments, and the symptoms are frequently irreversible.
The cause is unknown, but it is thought that it may be a result of neuroleptic-induced dopamine supersensitivity in the nigrostriatal pathway, particularly the D2 dopamine receptor. San Diego-based biotech Neurocrine is developing valbenazine, which is a highly selective small molecule inhibitor of VMAT2. This protein is concentrated in the brain, and is primarily responsible for repackaging and transporting the monoamines dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin and histamine in pre-synaptic neurons. Valbenazine modulates dopamine release during nerve communication, but has little impact on the other monoamines, thus reducing the likelihood of causing off-target side-effects.
In a randomised six-week, double blind, placebo controlled, dose titration study to evaluate its safety, tolerability and efficacy, 205 male and female potential adult subjects with moderate or severe tardive dyskinesia were screened, and 102 were randomised to receive valbenazine or placebo once a day.1 Doses started at 25mg, and were escalated in 25mg increments to a maximum of 75mg, based on dyskinesia and tolerability assessment. About three-quarters reached the maximum allowed dose. Abnormal involuntary movement scale scores were significantly reduced for those given the active compared with placebo, and it also proved superior on the clinical global impression of change scale. The most common adverse events were fatigue, headache, consti-pation and urinary tract infection.
The company has also announced Phase III results via press release. Subjects had moderate to severe tardive dyskinesia with underlying schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar or major depressive disorder. In all, 234 subjects were given 40mg or 80mg valbenazine or placebo for six weeks, and then all were given 40mg or 80mg once a day through to week 48. Significant improvements in both scales compared with placebo were observed with both doses. It was generally well tolerated during the six-week placebo controlled part of the study, and no drug-drug interactions were identified in any of the subjects who were also using a wide range of psychotropic and other medications.
The company has received breakthrough therapy designation from the FDA, and hopes to file an NDA with the FDA once a one-year open label safety study has been completed. Other investigations are also underway, notably in Tourette's syndrome, where in an open label multi-dose Phase Ib evaluation in 28 patients aged from 6–18, the drug gave a 31% mean reduction on the Yale global tic severity scale. A Phase II study is underway in adults with Tourette's, and another planned for children/adolescents.

The sea air, the sound of gulls calling, there is nothing really better than pitching up at a beautiful campsite on the coast.
As motorhome and caravan insurance providers we get this – using our Campsite Finder we have selected some of our favourite coastal campsites for you to visit this summer. Pack the bucket and spade...we're off to the beach!
If you love the water then Pentewan Sands is the place to be. This well kept campsite boasts a choice of two indoor swimming pools and its very own privately-owned beach. The great news is that it welcomes motorhomes, caravans and tents or you have the choice to rent one of the spacious onsite holiday homes.
If you fancy a break away from the beach there is plenty to do at Pentewan sands. Whether that's a couple of laps of the indoor swimming pool, or a game of tennis you'll find something for all tastes.
If water sports are your thing then you'll find sailing, water-sking, wakeboarding, windsurfing, kayaking and paddleboarding down by the beach.
Situated on the beautiful Sussex coast (right on the edge of Pevensey Bay), Bay View Park makes the perfect escape to the seaside. With over 70 pitches for tourers, motorhomes and tents and is only 2.5 miles from the town of Eastbourne.
Nearby you'll find the town of Eastbourne which is host to a wide range of events; from airshows, bandstand concerts, international tennis and beer festivals amongst a wealth of other events throughout the year.

If surfing is your thing, this is the campsite for you.

If surfing isn't your thing then Croyde village is home to some lovely walks and great pubs for you to sample, and is only a short distance from the campsite, or you can venture along the coastal path and explore other beaches in the area.
The main attraction to Ocean Pitch has got to be the wonderful beach right on its doorstep and the fantastic surfing that it offers. If you've never tried surfing before Ocean Pitch has surfboards and wetsuits for hire and there is also a surf school nearby to help you get going.

18 Florists Share The Hardest Notes They've Ever Had To Write For An Arrangement.
Flowers are a symbol for health, love, and the precarious nature of life, but flowers often come during the saddest moments in our lives.
Here are eighteen of the saddest things florists (and friends) have written on an arrangement's card.
Many thanks to Reddit user midnightmagicians for posing this question. You can check out more answers from the source at the end of this article!
1/18. I worked for a florist delivering flowers all through college.
The saddest was a delivery of yellow roses I made to a notably attractive young lady. The card said: "I hope he'll love you as much as I did - and still do ..."
She just stood there, reading the note back to me, and then she burst into tears. It's something that made a lasting impression on me.
Back2Bach
2/18. I was a trainee florist when I was 17. The saddest one I had was a phone order from a gentleman who wanted a bouquet of flowers with the note "Sorry I ruined your life" to his ex lover.
sacrilicious_sk
3/18. We had a standing order for a weekly bouquet. This was an exclusive shop in an affluent area, and the gentleman clearly had enough money to send something showy to his beloved wife on a regular basis. What struck me was that he would personally call in a new poem with each order. And these weren't Shakespeare quotes, by any means. All were summoned from the depths of his own creativity.
I was tasked with painstakingly transcribing his weekly poem onto the card. They had been married for a long time, and you can imagine how these poems would have devolved into Cornyville. Yet, he never missed a single one, while I was there. We all marveled at how he always took the time from running his large company to write a lovestruck message to his wife every week. He never had a secretary call in the order. I was always touched to take the call from that old guy.
Then one day, a woman called in with the poem. It was quite a bit different (perhaps lifted from a Hallmark card). As I filled out the order form, she explained that her father had experienced a debilitating stroke, and she would be providing the poetry from that point forward.
The deliveries stopped shortly thereafter.

4/18. I was working for a florist and it was around Father's Day. Someone ordered flowers and I was instructed to write, "Dad, thanks for keeping the abuse physical," on the card.
Capt_Misinformation
5/18. I was a florist for about 5 years and though I don't specifically remember any of the card messages, my worst day was when a local 7 or 8 year old girl passed away after she was thrown from a horse. The neighborhood she lived in was right across the street from my shop, and one day before the funeral all the little girl's friends came in with their parents to pick things out for the funeral.
It was heart wrenching with each of these little girls and boys choosing flowers and saying what they wanted on the card. I'll never forget it.
koshkaboshka
6/18. 'Only here for a day, however his memory will live forever'.
Eloquentdyslexic
7/18. A girl in our work received flowers to her desk on Valentine's Day and was delighted, even though they didn't look very impressive. But she told me her boyfriend had been struggling financially recently because he was starting his own business, so this meant a lot to her.
About half an hour later, a girl who sat two desks away received a much more impressive bouquet which got a lot of attention from the other women in the office. I saw the first girl watch all this, looking so sorrowful, before taking her flowers and hiding them under her desk.
kitjen
8/18. A man paid for flowers to be left at his wife's graveside once a month. Always wrote "I love and miss you" on it. Not the saddest thing to write, but just the idea of it. He always called to make sure we didn't forget, too.
Also, having to do the flower arrangements for a friend I was just with the night before. Imagine finding out they died because someone was ordering flowers for their parents.
tashibum
9/18. I once saw a card in some flowers at a little boys gravesite (there was a photo in the headstone, he couldn't have been more than 6). Scattered around it were some of what I assume we're his favourite action figures in life, and on the card (presumably from a brother or friend) "I keep coming to play with you but it just isn't the same."
Hit me right in the feels.
tatertotconnoisseur
10/18. A few years ago on the day before his mom's birthday, my friend ordered her flowers. On the card he wrote something along the lines of "Happy birthday, Mom! I'll love you always." And he died in the middle of the night.
The next day, in the middle of her mourning someone came and delivered her those flowers.
Oppugno11
11/18. Only slightly on topic, but I received an amusing card with a bouquet once.
My mom had been dating this guy (we'll call him Bobby) who absolutely spoiled her. I'm talking massive bouquets delivered to her office at least twice a week. By the weekend, her kitchen table would be covered in these elaborate, beautiful arrangements. I came round to visit one evening & jokingly said, "wow, what a spoiled little brat!"
The next week at work, I received a pretty little bouquet with a card that read "now you're a spoiled little brat, too. Love, Bobby". I always wondered what the florist who wrote that out thought.
miss_delaney
12/18. Well not what was written but the bad timing of it.
My brother has always been a sarcastic and funny kind of guy. He had a friend from church who was hospitalized due to some life long health complications. The guy has been hospitalized a lot his life and it was expected he'd be out in no time. He sent flowers basically saying "I bet you a $100 you'll come out of this fine and we can go get high and hammered with the money".
The flowers arrived 2 days after he died.

13/18. My grandmother was a florist for many years. I used to go to the greenhouse with her all the time and watch her make these amazing flower arrangements...
One day, I was visiting and she's just got done making a stunning bouquet with a small card in the center. The card read "Eric, I'm sorry to have heard of your recent tragedy. You'll forever be missed by us all."
Turns out Eric was just getting married - the arrangement was from his drinking buddies.
EnsonAmata
14/18. My mom was a floral arrangement "specialist" at Kroger. A young woman came in asking for lilies and rosebuds with baby's breath. My mom put it together for her and asked what she wanted on the card. The woman replied, "To Lily, the breath of your baby shall forever bloom, in our hearts and yours."
She told my mom her sister's daughter died of SIDS the day before.

15/18. When I was in high school, my best friend's mom owned the local florist shop. Small town, so everybody ordered all their prom stuff from her and she'd be up for days just filling orders. Me and my friend decided to help her out.
I had been dating a guy for about 3 years. We were high school sweethearts. He was the first boy I ever loved. So anyways, he says that he can't go to prom this year because his family is going out of town to visit his sister who is away at college. I think, ok no big deal.
But then, as I'm filling orders in the flower shop, I pick up the order form from none other than my high school sweetheart. Except it had a different girl's name on it. There was no note, but I was absolutely heartbroken. Even my best friend knew he was taking somebody else to the prom. I called my dad sobbing, who then must have called him, because he showed up about 10 minutes later to apologize and try to console me.
That was the first time a boy broke my heart and I'll never forget it.
flargle_queen
16/18. I take care of the orchids in a floral store & had a young woman come in, maybe in her early 20's. She was very sweet, attentive, & wanted to know about everything we had, but eventually settled on an orchid. She was very excited about moving into a new home & had me help her find a flower that would brighten up the place.
She listened very closely to the directions I gave her for caring for her new plant (it was a gorgeous plum & white blossom, & very hardy), & even had me write them down for her. I used store stationary & even wrote my name in the card & told her to come see me if she had any questions at all.
About a month & a half later, an older man comes in with the orchid, possibly her father. He'd seen my name & the name of our store on the card & brought it back to us. The young woman had passed away in an accident shortly after moving, & he didn't know how to care for the plant.
It was in great shape, I could tell she'd been taking good care of it, but he didn't want anything to do with it. He asked me to refund it & put it back on the shelves, as even with the directions he wasn't sure he could take care of it, & even if he could, he didn't want it around. I think it reminded him of her too much.
I have a small amount of oversight in the department, so I managed to trade him the orchids for a funeral bouquet that was worth a lot more. I was supposed to put the orchid back on display, but I couldn't bear to. I got permission to bring it home with me, but even with all the care I gave it, it died a couple weeks later.
I don't know if flowers can miss people, but part of me likes to think this one did.

17/18. The florist didn't write it, my grandfather did:
"Happy anniversary. I'll always love you. Fife"
It was delivered on their 40th anniversary. 5 months after he had passed from colon cancer. He had his son (my uncle) get the card and he wrote it a week before he passed. My uncle then saved it and sent it with the flowers my grandfather had ordered for her.
We found the card again when she passed away. She had kept it stashed in one of his old cigar boxes with a stack of other love notes he'd sent her through the years (most when he was overseas in WW2).
(Fife was his pet name from my grandmother.)
Noia20
18/18. The florist I work for prints the cards and we don't have to hand write them. The sympathy cards are always sad, but the worst one I've read was something along the lines of "I'm so sorry for the loss of your brother so soon after the loss of your parents."
I upgraded that arrangement a bit and I know it wouldn't make the situation any better, but I wanted to make sure the flowers they received were extra nice.
ALinkToTheCats
First off, guys.. If you're using the same florist to send your wife and mistress flowers on Valentine's Day, take 2 minutes and make sure the cards are right.. It's not our job to be a marriage counselor.. 2nd, we see some crazy messages.. Like, "To one of God's most beautiful creations, from another one of God's most beautiful creations.." Mostly, the message is in the flowers.. Or lack there of.. Had a guy come in once, order a dozen roses for his significant other.. Wants to see it before being delivered.. Walks over and cuts all the heads off the roses leaving just the stems, greenery and baby's breath.. Then says, "okay, now you can deliver it.. She'll get the message..."

"It'll look good if you put some gel in it." Said the stylist at mastercuts in the mall after she trimmed my sideburns about an inch and a half above my ear.

My mom is a pro hairstylist and she said that whenever she cuts someone's hair too short and the customer complains she just makes up stuff on the fly and says "but this length looks better, it complements your face shape and brings out your cheekbones."

About a million years ago, I threw this recipe together, just based on a few items that I happened to have on hand at the time. The result was so yummy and hearty that I've been making it for years. To be honest, I'm kind of surprised that I haven't posted this already.
There's really nothing to it. It's not even a recipe, really. You just make sloppy joes, make some saffron rice, and then mix the two of them together. Easy, right? Serve it up in a burrito and there you have it! Sometimes the best recipes are the simplest, don't you think? I hope you'll give it a try! Oh, and btw, be sure to read the tips after the recipe for serving ideas! Great then.
Brown the ground beef in a large pot over medium heat. Add onions and continue to saute until onions are soft. Add sloppy joe sauce. Stir until completely combined. Let it simmer over a low heat while you prepare the rice. In another pan with a tight fitting lid, prepare the rice according to the package directions. When the rice is fully cooked, add it to the pot with the beef and sauce. Mix it until it's well combined. That's all there is to it! Serve it in flour tortillas with sour cream and cheddar cheese.
*I usually don't mention specific brands, but these are the brands that I always use when I make this, so I figured they were worth mentioning.
-Yes, the amounts are correct as listed. Usually when you're buying canned sloppy joe sauce, one regular can is all that is needed for one pound of meat. I added a second can because the rice absorbs some of the sauce.
-You can use regular leftover white rice, but the result won't be quite the same, since you'll be missing all of the saffron and seasonings in the yellow rice mix.
-Be creative! Throw in some diced jalapenos or any other favorite peppers. You could even throw in some black beans, whole kernel corn, or even some sliced ripe olives. YUM.
- I usually serve this wrapped up in a tortilla, but it also makes great nachos. Just arrange a single layer of corn tortilla chips in a baking pan, pour some of the sloppy beef and rice over them, then sprinkle cheese over all. Bake it until the cheese melts and serve it with your favorite nacho toppings. Guacamole anyone?
-Another way to serve it is just in a bowl with cheese melted over it, as you'd serve a bowl of chili, along with any of your favorite chili toppings. Love.

Stella Schools Program
The Stella Schools Program was established in 2014. It aims to increase the amount of books by women writers being studied by high school students all over Australia.
The beginnings of WILAA
During the Emerging Writers' Festival in 2014, a roundtable was held with women writers from all over Australia. We were disheartened that many discussions about gender and publishing were still asking if there was sexism in our industry. Statistics show us that there is, so why, we wondered, was the question still being asked? We wanted to start with the premise that women face discrimination in many aspects of the literary world, and ask what could be done about it.
In the very short window of time we had to gather and speak, we came up with a manifesto. It had real, tangible suggestions for ways that the underrepresentation of women in literature could be addressed. You can read it in full here. At the end of the session it was clear there were many ways that women could be supported. Since then, we've made some of those things happen. We hosted a panel at The Wheeler Centre in November last year which discussed the gendered covers of books. The Emerging Writers' Festival committed to an entire day of programming for women during EWF 2015, including a stream specifically for young women writers. A growing group of women writers joined a private online space to discuss their experiences in the industry, and to network and support each other. These joined the ranks of already wonderful initiatives for women writers, such as the Stella Prize and the Australian Women Writers Challenge.
It soon became apparent, though, that while there were many ways to tackle the challenges of women writers, there was no one place they could go to for information and support. Many organisations or initiatives dealt exclusively with one aspect of the challenges facing women, and didn't have the capacity to tackle other areas. And thus WILAA was born.
It is our intention to be a hub of information for women writers. To draw attention to the opportunities that exist for them, and to advocate for their needs where those needs are not being met. To begin, we're taking a survey of women writers to ask about their experiences. We have committed to one big project for 2015: to undertake a count of women at literary festivals around Australia. We know women are underrepresented on the media, but what about on stage? We hope to grow beyond this, though. And we'd love to hear from you if you have ideas on what we should tackle next. Take our survey, send us an email, leave us a comment. We look forward to hearing from you.

Co-curated by Marieke Hardy and Michaela McGuire, the monthly occasion brings together five of Melbourne's best and brightest writers, musicians, politicians and comedians in celebration of the beautiful lost art of letter-writing.
Filmme Fatales
Filmme Fatales is a zine that looks at the places where film and feminism intersect. It launched in 2013 and has been committed to talking about movies in an accessible and non-boring way since then.
Women in Writing Manifesto: One Year On
WILAA evolved from a women in writing industry roundtable held at the Emerging Writers' Festival in 2014. In just a few short hours of discussion, the writers present offered a wide array of challenges, suggestions and practical ideas to help address the unique challenges women face within the industry. These were collated into a manifesto which was presented to the wider festival community on the final night. A year on, where are we at with the points in the manifesto? This post over on the EWF blog is an update.

Q: Access DOM using getElementById returns undefined in Vue mounted hook I am having a problem while accessing the DOM using Vue3 mounted hook.
I noticed that using the getElementById or getElementByClassName methods on the mounted hook, returns undefined, and using the querySelector method returns the DOM.
After some research, I found that we should use nextTick or asynchronous operations to access the DOM in the mounted hook.
Doesn't the mounted hook itself mean the DOM is mounted?
Why do I need to use asynchronous operations or nextTick to get the DOM inside the mounted hook?
Plus:
I want to know the difference of getElementById and getElementByClassName? Why I can get DOM on the mounted hook By getElementById,but I can not By getElementByClassName.
enter image description here
enter image description here

A: Use nextTick when you want to be very sure that the DOM reflects your data.

nextTick accepts a callback function that gets delayed until the next
DOM update cycle. It is just the Vue way of saying, that if you ever
want to execute a function after making sure that the DOM has been
updated, use nextTick".

So this is all about making sure of the DOM's presence before accessing it inside the mounted hook which is a helpful way to get rid of some unwanted output, i.e undefined.
In the below example, Vue waits to update DOM when data has been changed using the nextTick function before displaying value 3 to the browser.
mounted() {
    // Vue updates the DOM to some value 3
    this.currentTime = 3;

    // then invokes the callback, updates the DOM to 2021, and
    // finally gives control to the browser, which displays current
    // year.

    this.$nextTick(() => {
        let date = new Date()
        this.currentTime = date.getFullYear()
    });
}

There are a number of well-written blogs to explain nextTick and asynchronous queues operation with very good examples.
I would recommend getting through this-

I made these a lot smaller than a normal cinnamon roll because I intended them as a snack, not a meal. They were the perfect size, about 3 bites, and a huge hit! The cake batter dissolved into the cinnamon roll dough, infusing the rolls with the delicious flavor of cake. I used Pioneer Woman's cinnamon roll recipe (my go-to for cinnamon rolls) as a base for these snacks and the addition of cake batter made these fabulous!
1. Mix the milk, oil, and sugar in a large pot. Scald milk mixture and then let it cool to room temperature.
2. Sprinkle yeast over milk mixture and let it sit for a couple minutes.
3. Stir in 4 cups of flour to form a sticky dough. Cover pan and let the dough rise for 1 hour.
4. After dough has risen, stir in remaining 1/2 cup of flour, baking powder, and baking soda until well combined.
5. Divide dough in half. On a flour covered workplace (I use my counter), roll the dough out until it's about 1/8" thick and in a rectangular shape. Because I made mine into mini cinnamon rolls, I rolled my dough about 30 inches long and 6 inches wide. If you want larger cinnamon rolls, make a smaller rectangle, probably 18 inches long and 12 inches wide.
6. Melt margarine in a glass measuring cup (or a small bowl). Pour half of the melted margarine over the dough. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon (the amount is up to you, I used less cinnamon so the cake flavor would really shine through). Then sprinkle with 1/2 cup yellow cake mix and sprinkles.
7. Roll dough in a line toward you. Cut into 3/4 inch slices. (I use dental floss to cut my cinnamon rolls, but a sharp knife works well too.) Place in a greased pan.
8. Repeat this process with the other half of the dough.
9. Let the cinnamon rolls rise for 30 minutes. Then bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes.
10. While rolls are in the oven, mix together ingredients for icing. When the rolls are cool, pour over rolls and top with sprinkles.

When I saw this recipe on It's a Keeper, I thought it was something Mike and I would like! Then, she won a Williams-Sonoma recipe contest with this recipe and I knew it had to be good! I got some grape tomatoes for a great price so it was the perfect time to make this dinner.
1. In a large skillet (I actually used my wok), cook bacon for 8-9 minutes, or until crisp. Remove bacon and drain on paper towels. Drain grease, leaving a small amount in the skillet.
2. Add onion to skillet and saute until tender, 2-3 minutes. Add garlic and saute for 20 seconds.
3. Add in chicken broth, tomatoes, and salt. Bring to a simmer.
4. Add in bacon and pasta. Simmer, covered, for 9-10 minutes, until pasta is al dente.
5. Remove skillet from heat and stir in cream cheese, tomatoes, and 1-1/2 Tablespoons parsley.
6. Cover and let it stand for 5 minutes, until sauce is thickened.

If you're really ambitious, you could eat this entire thing by yourself, but you probably wouldn't need to eat anything for the rest of the day. Or, you can share. I cut my cinnamon roll like a pie and the slices were just the right size!
1. In the bowl of your stand mixer, combine warm water, yeast and sugar. Let it sit about 5 minutes until the yeast bubbles.
2. In a small microwave safe bowl, microwave milk and margarine for 15 seconds, until margarine softens.
3. Add salt, nutmeg, and eggs to milk mixture.
4. Pour milk and egg mixture into the yeast mixture. Add 1 cup of flour and mix with a dough hook.
5. Add remaining flour and mix until a soft dough is formed. Knead for 5 minutes.
6. Cover and let rise for 1 hour, until doubled.
7. On a floured surface, roll dough into a 9x30 inch rectangle. Using kitchen scissors or a pizza cutter, cut dough into thirds the long way, so you have 3 3x30 inch rectangles.
8. Spread each piece with melted butter. Then sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon.
9. Begin rolling dough into cinnamon roll: Start at the 3 inch end and begin rolling until you get to the end of the strip. Then attach the end of the strip you just rolled to the next strip. Roll it like the first strip and then attach the end of that to the last strip and continue rolling. You'll end up with about a 6 inch roll. Cover and let rise for 1 hour.
10. Bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes.
11. In a small bowl, combine powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk. Drizzle over cinnamon roll.

This is a recipe I grew up making. In fact, I made it so often I have it completely memorized. I would come home from school and quick throw the ingredients for these granola bars together, 20 minutes later I had a delicious, healthy, and filling snack.
This time however, I took into account my high-powered microwave and these turned out just how they should, nice and chewy. I love how versatile these bars are. I usually make them with chocolate chips, but I decided to mix it up and do raisins this time; they are also delicious with mixed dried fruit. You could also mix in some wheat germ or other healthy items to bump up the nutritional content. I also use this recipe to make my granola. Rather than baking the bars in the microwave, I put the mixture on a cookie sheet and bake it until crispy; double duty recipe--can't get much better!
1. Place margarine and brown sugar in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for about 35 seconds, until margarine is melted. Stir until sugar dissolves.
2. Mix molasses into sugar mixture to form a syrup.
3. Stir in oatmeal and baking powder until oats are completely covered by the syrup.
5. Press into a 9x13 microwave safe pan. Microwave on high for 5 minutes. Let bars cool for at least 15 minutes before cutting into them.
If you want to make granola instead, for step 5 spread mixture on a large baking sheet. Place in 300 degree oven for 20 minutes, stirring after 10. If it's not crispy enough, you can leave it in the oven longer. Store in an airtight container.

Sorry, no pictures for this post! You'll just have to take my word for how incredible this rub and marinade are. Mike said that it was the best steak he's ever had, and he didn't even need to use A1 (this is from someone who won't eat steak without A1!) It was fantastic!
3. Remove steaks from marinade and cook as you usually would.

1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup heavy cream and milk.
2. Cut cake into smaller chunks and add to cream mixture.
3. Heat cream and cake mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the cake dissolves.
4. Remove from heat and let the cream cool to room temperature. Stir in remaining cream.
5. Refrigerate at least 12 hours.
6. Churn ice-cream in your ice-cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Mine took about 30 minutes.
7. In a small bowl mix together frosting ingredients. Carefully stir into ice-cream.
8. Place ice-cream in a freezer-safe container and freeze at least 2 hours before serving.

You can't make pretzel dough without actually making pretzels! Pardon my funny shapes, I think I need to practice a bit! I'd love to see how yours turn out. These pretzels were fantastic! So soft and tender on the inside, and full of flavor on the outside!
1. In a small bowl, combine yeast and water, stirring until yeast dissolves. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
2. In your mixer bowl, combine flour, salt and brown sugar.
3. Pour in yeast mixture and add oil. Mix on low speed for 1 minute.
4. Switch to dough hook and mix on low speed for 2 minutes. Let dough rest for 5 minutes.
5. Continue mixing dough on medium-low speed for 3 minutes until a slightly tack ball of dough forms.
6. Form dough into ball and place in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight or for up to 4 days.
7. Remove dough from fridge about 2 hours before you want to use it, and allow it to come to room temperature.
8. Divide dough into 12 equal parts. Roll each piece into a long rope, try for about 15 inches. (Note: my ropes were only about 10 inches long, resulting in a smaller pretzel).
9. Shape into a pretzel.
10. Dip into dipping solution and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Top each pretzel with your choice of topping.

Next up, Pretzel Dogs! This are a fun meal for any age, they remind me of shopping malls because of places like Auntie Anne's Pretzels. Mike and I really enjoyed these, and I think you will too!
1. Divide dough into 12 equal parts.
2. Roll each piece of dough into a long rope, about 10 inches.
3. Wrap dough around hot dog and secure ends with a toothpick to keep the dough in place.
4. Sprinkle the tops of the dough with salt.
5. Bake at 350 for 22 minutes, until golden brown. Serve with ketchup.

How much easier can it get? Make one dough, and create 3 different things from it. Mike and I recently had some store bought mozzarella pretzel bites (I don't remember the brand), and I wanted to replicate them. I also had seen a picture of pretzel dogs and they sounded good too. And of course, you can't make pretzel dough without making pretzels! Over the next few posts, I'll share the recipes and instructions for each. First up: Mozzarella Pretzel Bites.
1. Cut each piece of string cheese into 4 equal pieces.
2. Divide pretzel dough into small balls (mine were just a little smaller than a golf ball).
3. Flatten each dough ball in the palm of your hand and place the piece of string cheese in the middle. Wrap dough around cheese and roll into a ball.
4. Prepare dipping solution by mixing together ingredients until baking soda dissolves. Dip each dough ball into the dipping solution and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5. Sprinkle Mozzarella cheese over each dough ball.
6. Bake at 400 for 18 minutes, rotating pan halfway through baking.

Mike took me out for dinner for Valentine's Day. I decided that I would make him a nice dinner the next night. We had steaks and baked potatoes and then his requested peach pie. It's my take on a pie his Grandma makes. I really don't know how she makes it and I didn't have a recipe, so I just went by memory and looks. We both thought it turned out great, and we'll definitely be making it again!
1. Drain peach juice, reserving 1 cup. Dice peaches into small pieces.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine peach jello and 3/4 cup boiling water. Stir until gelatin is dissolved. Add in cold peach juice.
3. Place peaches in the bottom of a baked pie crust (use recipe below or store-bought).
4. Pour jello mixture over peaches. Depending on the size of your pie tin, you may or may not need all of the jello to fill the pie.
5. Refrigerate at least 4 hours, or until set.
6. Meanwhile, whip together cream cheese, vanilla, and powdered sugar until well combined. Carefully stir in Cool Whip being careful to keep the fluffiness of the Cool Whip.
7. When pie is set, top pie with Cool Whip topping. Refrigerate until you're ready to serve.
3. Roll dough on lightly floured surface to fit your 9 or 10 inch pie plate. Transfer pie to plate and trim pastry. Flute edge as desired. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes, until lightly browned.

My co-worker recently introduced me to Bob Evan's Cheesy Potato Soup. It is delicious! Our work recently moved and now we're right behind a Bob Evan's. It's dangerous I tell ya! One day, after eating Bob Evan's soup, she commented to me that I should try to replicate it. Of course, I couldn't pass up that challenge!
1. Dice bacon and cook in a skillet until crispy. Drain fat and set aside.
2. Peel potatoes and dice into 1/2 inch cubes. Boil for 10 minutes, drain and set aside.
3. In a large pot, melt butter and add the flour, whisking constantly until the roux is smooth.
4. Gradually add milk, heavy cream, and chicken stock, whisking constantly.
5. When the sauce begins to thicken, add the cubed Velveeta. Stir constantly until cheese is completely melted.
6. Add the bacon, garlic powder, and Tabasco to the cheese mixture. Lower heat and simmer, covered for 10 minutes, stirring frequently. The first time I made this, I had a burned layer at the bottom of my pan so please, stir frequently to avoid this!!!
7. Add in potatoes and simmer for another 10 minutes.
8. Garnish individual bowls of soup with cheddar cheese, bacon, chives, and parsley.
Note: You can use frozen diced potatoes (hashbrowns) instead of fresh potatoes. I skip boiling them and just add them to the hot pot of soup and simmer for 10 minutes.

I volunteered to bring dessert for our couple's group tonight. I had some homemade marshmallows in the house and I wanted something rich and chocolaty. I combined the two ideas and came up with these brownies. They were a huge hit and I'll definitely be making these again!
1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine brownie mix, oil, water, and eggs. Pour into greased 9x13 pan.
2. In a small mixing bowl, combine sugar, peanut butter, flour, and eggs. Mix until fluffy.
3. Drop peanut butter mixture by the spoonful over brownie batter. Swirl peanut butter mixture through brownie batter with a knife.
4. Bake at 350 for 40 minutes, until brownie is done.
5. Cool for 10 minutes, then cover with marshmallows. Place under broiler for 1 minute, then rotate and keep under broiler until marshmallows get toasted. Cool before serving.
If you wet a knife with water before cutting, it will keep the marshmallow from sticking.

I made these rolls to go with cheesy potato soup. I made some just with mozzarella and I made the rest with diced green olives for Mike. He says that they are the best rolls he has ever had and was so happy when I told him they were easy enough to make quite often. I'd agree, these rolls are delicious!
1. In a large bowl, dissolve sugar and yeast in water. Let it stand for 5 minutes, until yeast becomes bubbly.
2. Add flour, milk, oregano, salt and olive oil. Mix until smooth.
3. Knead dough for 10 minutes (by hand, probably 5 minutes if you're using your stand mixer).
4. Place dough in bowl coated with cooking spray. Cover and let rise in a warm spot about 45 minutes, until doubled in size.
5. Punch dough down. Cover and let it rest for 5 minutes.
6. Arrange olives and 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese over dough. Knead lightly, just until olives and cheese are incorporated into dough.
7. Cover and let the dough rest for 10 minutes.
8. Punch dough down. Divide into 16 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and place on a greased baking sheet.
9. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
10. Bake at 375 for 18 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle with remaining cheese.

1. Melt chopped chocolate and butter in a small bowl. Set aside to cool.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine eggs, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Beat with a mixer until it becomes fluffy and triples in volume. It took me about 5 minutes.
3. Carefully stir in flour.
4. Fold in chocolate mixture just until combined.
5. Divide batter evenly between 6 greased ramekins.
6. Place a caramel in the center of each ramekin and make sure it's covered with chocolate.
7. Bake at 400 for 9-11 minutes. I found that 11 minutes was a little too long as the cakes got baked almost completely through and there wasn't much "molten" part. You'll want to serve these immediately so the caramel doesn't harden.

When I saw this on Peabody's blog, I knew I had to make it. I did, and it was every bit as fabulous as I thought it would be. Give it a try~it's a bit of work, but certainly worth it!
1. Lightly grease a Bundt pan with vegetable oil. Set aside.
2. Place brown sugar in a small bowl.
3. Place melted butter in a nearby bowl.
4. Turn dough out onto a very lightly floured surface and gently deflate it.

6. Dunk each ball in butter, and then transfer it to the brown sugar to be thoroughly coated.
7. Place all coated dough balls into prepared Bundt pan.
8. When all the dough balls have been coated and placed in the pan, cover the pan with plastic wrap and let bread rise for an hour, until almost doubled in size.
9. Bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes. Bread will spring back when lightly pressed.
10. Let bread cool in pan for 10 minutes, and then turn out onto a serving platter.
Serve immediately, as the bread is best when eaten warm.
1. Melt the chocolate using a double boiler. Once it is melted, set it aside and keep at room temperature.
2. Using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter until smooth.
3. Add cocoa powder and chocolate beat until well incorporated. Set aside.
1. Combine yeast and water in the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and whisk until the yeast is dissolved. Let it stand for 5 minutes.
2. Add remaining ingredients, forming a thin batter.
3. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes until bubbles form.
1. Sift the flour and salt into the sponge.
2. Add egg yolks, and mix with paddle attachment on low speed for 2 minutes, until yolks are absorbed.
3. Increase to medium speed; knead for 5 minutes or until smooth and satiny.
4. On medium low speed, add chocolate butter one tbsp. at a time.
5. Switch to dough hook; knead until very well developed, smooth and shiny.
6. Add chocolate chips, mix on low until incorporated.
7. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 2 hours until double. Punch down and rise again until double, about 45 to 60 minutes (or refrigerator for 4hours or overnight).

I love McDonald's Southwest Chicken Salad. One of my co-workers offered to grab lunch for me the other day, she was headed to McD's and I knew what I wanted! Plus it's only 420 calories, including the dressing! One night I asked Mike if he would mind a huge salad for dinner, he was okay with it, and I was thrilled to be able to create my own version of my favorite salad. Neither of us care for beans, so we omitted those, but otherwise I think this is almost exactly like McD's...I know I loved it!
1. Cook chicken tenders in a frying pan. About halfway through cooking, spread a mixture of honey and mustard on each side. Remove from heat. Dice when cooled.
2. In the same pan, cook corn until it is somewhat blackened.
3. Prepare carrots by cutting them into "curls" with a vegetable peeler.
4. Layer lettuce, carrots, corn, chicken and cheese. Top with crushed Doritos.

During Homecoming this past weekend, Lee University President Dr. Paul Conn named Forrest Preston the Honorary Alum of the Year.
Preston, the founder and sole owner of Life Care Centers of America, started the healthcare company in 1970.
Preston, a Massachusetts native, moved to Cleveland in the late 1950s after attending Walla Walla College in Washington. Originally studying to be a physician, Preston quickly decided that the life of a doctor was not for him.
Preston ended up getting his education to be an X-ray technician and due to his time working in various hospitals, he realized there was a need for better public relations in the healthcare system. He first started a third-party public relations firm to handle PR for hospitals, but upon seeing conditions for residents in hospitals, realized there was a need for better long-term care.
In 1970, the first Life Care Center opened in Cleveland. The company quickly grew due to the emphasis on building relationships, according to Preston.
Today, Life Care is the largest privately-owned long-term care facility chain in the United States with facilities across 28 states. It is the third-largest long-term care chain in the nation.
In addition to being an executive, Preston makes an effort to mentor others and have impactful relationships.
Because Preston was not able to attend Homecoming, the award will be presented to him at a later date.

You put the winch on the wrong end.
It's not the rear that is too high it's the front. I need to put 2 winches on the front bumper to weigh it down.
Currie is going to get a nasty email from me.
I got 6.5 inches lift on the front, 3 in the rear, from a 4" lift. Go figure.
If you ask nicely they will probably be very helpful in sorting out the problem. First thing to ask, were the right coils in the kit? Check PN's and look on their site.
So I've got all my coil springs swapped out (thanks Gerry), I have approx 5" lift all the way around now, with a nose down rake.
Currie sent me a 1" taller version option springs for the rear, and shorter softer 2 door springs for the front.
I also put a 3/4 Daystar budget boost spacer in the rear.
Then buy rims, tires (which I already have).
Then install my fenders, which I also already have.
Besides NSOR and 4WP, where else can I shop for rims?
So my Jeep is at Enrico's getting new gears - 4.88's - and the truss welded on.
And he talked me into the Dynatrac Big Brake package for another $1375.
Gotta be able to stop with those bigger tires.
I got the jeep back from Enrico's.
With the 32's on, I now start off in 2nd gear, and I am looking for 7th on the highway.
Also, with the big brake package, it stops quicker.
That will all change tomorrow as I am picking up my wheels/tires from Tyler.
So the tires are on, it drives good. With the 4.88's and the 37's, its a slightly lower geared than before, at 120 KMH, it revs a coupe of hundred rpm higher than with the 4.10's & 32's (2800 compared to 2600). If I'm at a stoplight and I'm pointing down hill, I can still start off in 2nd, like before.
It does handle a little different though. That was to be expected.
Even with the big tires, I still notice the Big Brake package stops quicker. I would recommend to any JK owners, if you have big tires 35's or bigger, go with the Big Brake package.
I had to slice off 2.5 inches off the rear end of my factory rock sliders, the were not letting the rear tires go on. As the suspension travels upwards, the tire pulls away to the rear.
I flexed it out on some big rocks, as long as my steering wheel is pointed strait, I have no rubbing on the stock flares.
I haven't had time to put on my flat fenders, nor mud flaps.
Enrico did a really nice job welding the truss on, looks professional.
Big thanks to Paul, I now have my Kenwood 710 mobile and Cobra CB installed.
Installed flares. Big thanks to Jeremy and Gerry.

The U.S. Army will immediately stop using drones made by the world's largest manufacturer, DJI of China, and has ordered that batteries and storage media be removed and applications uninstalled.
A publication focused on drones, sUAS News, broke the story after it obtained a U.S. Army memo hand-dated Aug. 2. The memo notes: "Due to increased awareness of cyber vulnerabilities associated with DJI products, it is directed that the U.S. Army halt use of all DJI products."
The memo says DJI's Unmanned Aircraft Systems are the most widely used commercial off-the-shelf drone used by the Army.
A statement from DJI says the Army gave it no prior warning of the ban. But it noted that governments around the world use DJI products for sensitive and mission critical operations.
"We are happy to work directly with any organization, including the U.S. Army, that has concerns about our management of cyber issues," DJI says in its statement. "We'll be reaching out to the U.S. Army to confirm the memo and to understand what is specifically meant by 'cyber vulnerabilities.'"
sUAS News updated its story later saying the U.S. Army had confirmed the memo but said that the guidance is under review. It is unclear if that means the policy is in flux and could be reversed.
The U.S. Army memo doesn't elaborate beyond citing unspecified vulnerabilities in DJI products. But in justifying the ban, it cites a classified Army Research Laboratory report titled "DJI UAS Technology Threat and User Vulnerabilities" dated May 25.
It also cites a U.S. Navy memorandum dated May 24: "Operational Risks with Regards to DJI Family of Products."
There's no lack of enthusiasm for hacking drones. Hobbyists and security pros have been tinkering with drones ever since commercial sales began to take off more than a decade ago.
It would appear that the U.S. military is getting cold feet after taking a closer look into DJI's products. Last month, The Register reported that DJI erred by leaving debugging code in its Assistant 2 software. That allowed hackers to circumvent built-in controls, such as flight elevation limits and geofences, which prevent drones from straying into restricted airspace. It appears that drone enthusiasts began discussing the flaw as early as April.
Still, it took DJI months to patch. On Aug. 1, the company issued a news release saying it issued a firmware update to solve the issue. The company does not have a bug bounty program. Instead, it relies on tops through its customer service channels.
The U.S. government has been increasingly concerned over software supply chains and the influence of home governments where those products are manufactured.
Last month, the U.S. General Services Administration, which manages IT procurement for the U.S. government, removed the security company Kaspersky Lab from its list of approved suppliers. Kaspersky Lab is headquartered in Moscow, and the concern revolves around the company's relationship with the Russian government (see Trump Administration Restricts Kaspersky Lab Product Use).
The move does not ban Kaspersky Lab products, but instead makes the products more difficult to procure. It also does not mandate that agencies currently using the products stop. Kaspersky refuted that it works with the Russian government in a way that would undermine the security of its users' products.
DJI ran in trouble last year after what it describes as a junior spokesperson misspoke to journalists during a press tour, suggesting that data collected by drones might be shared with China's government.
DJI countered that it does not share customer information or drone video with Chinese authorities. But it did say - like many other technology companies faced with valid legal orders - that it would provide data if necessary to comply with the law.
