The Harvard baseball team gears up for the 2015 opener at Wofford this weekend. (Harvard Athletics)
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – The Harvard baseball team will make its way south to open up the 2015 campaign, as the Crimson looks to start the new year with a visit to Wofford this weekend for a four-game series. Harvard (0-0) and Wofford (7-1) are slated to play Friday, a doubleheader on Saturday, and a series cap on Sunday; all pending weather in Spartanburg.
The Crimson, which finished last season 11-28 (5-15 Ivy League) looks to improve with a full roster and the addition of 11 newcomers. Harvard features 16 position players and 16 pitchers (10 righties and six lefties) this season, owning a deep roster built for the long-haul.
Keeping up with the Crimson
To catch all the latest news and notes on the baseball team, follow @HarvardBaseball on Twitter and @OfficialHarvardBaseball on Instagram. Be sure to use the hashtag #GoCrimson to see what fans are saying about Crimson athletics.
Ivy League Digital Network
After an incredibly successful inaugural year that saw over 1,000 events streamed live, The Ivy League Digital Network has returned for 2014-15, providing fans with unprecedented coverage of the Ivy League. Multiple subscription options are available to fans including school-specific and league-wide passes. To learn more about the Ivy League Digital Network or to sign-up today, click here.
Weather permitting, every Harvard home game during the 2015 season will be streamed live and in HD from O'Donnell Field.
Rapid Rewind
Harvard played yet another tough slate in 2014, and opened up the season 1-9 before handing a tough Michigan State team a 7-3 loss in Greenville, South Carolina. The Crimson then split with North Dakota State and took one-of-three from Army, a 2015 opponent, too. Harvard split three of its five Ivy League series last year, but had great success against area schools. The Crimson claimed the 2014 Beanpot with a gutsy 3-0 over UMass at Northeastern's Parson's Field, earning its first Beanpot title since 2005.
Harvard will miss the production of Kyle Larrow and Carlton Bailey this season, but the Crimson is quite the veteran squad. 2014 First Team All-Ivy League selection Mike Martin returns to the lineup, as do co-captains Jack Colton and Ethan Ferreira. Martin hit .304 and led Harvard with 45 hits a season ago, including six doubles, two triples and a home run. He accounted for 22 runs and 12 RBI. Colton had himself 38 hits in 143 trips to the plate, scoring 13 runs and adding 14 RBI, while Ferreira had 31 hits – eight doubles – and scored 12 times, plating 16 runners.
On the mound, Harvard should compete well with their rotation of Sean Poppen, Nick Gruener, Matt Timoney and Tanner Anderson. Poppen led all Crimson hurlers with a 2.51 ERA, going 2-4 in nine starts. He yielded just 51 hits inn 57.1 IP and will toe the rubber to open the year for the second season in a row. Gruener had a stellar freshman campaign, throwing 51.0 innings, giving up just 47 hits and tallying a 3.88 ERA. Anderson was injured early in the Ivy campaign, but finished the year with a 1-2 record with a team-high three saves, while Timoney had a team-best three wins (3-5) with a 4.76 ERA a year ago.
A Look at Wofford
The Terriers (7-1) started the season strong with seven straight victories, six of which came at home. Wofford hosted Boston College to open the year with a win, then consecutively defeated Xavier, Dayton, Presbyterian, Pitt, Miami (OH) and UNC Asheville before suffering its first loss at the hands of Clemson (L, 11-5) on Wednesday.
Matthew Pelt has been stellar for the Terriers to open the year, hitting .429 with seven runs and four RBI. Matt Ramsay leads the team with 12 hits and with eight RBI through eight games, including a pair of triples. James Plaisted is second on the team behind Ramsay with six runs batted in.
On the hill, Matt Milburn, Luke Leftwich and Adam Scott are in the probable rotation versus Harvard this weekend for the Terriers. Millburn has a 2.77 ERA and a 1-0 record in two starts (13 IP). Leftwich holds a 2-0 record and has given up five runs in 11 IP for a 4.09 ERA. The righty leads the staff with 18 strikeouts as well, however. Scott has been lit up for nine hits and six runs in eight innings of work so far, but is still a steady presence on the rubber for Wofford.
After its trip to Wofford, Harvard continues its road swing with a four-game series at Mercer in Macon, Georgia, in a week's time.

My first set of nice brushes were the ones I got for Christmas about 5 years ago. They recently started getting dry and shed so I decided to purchase some new ones, but didn't want to fork over that much cash. I did some research on different brushes for a couple weeks and decided on these.The brushes are really smooth and apply makeup . I have have no shedding whatsoever and I have been using them for over a month now.
I've had about 20 different brushes over the last few years and this is by far my most favorite foundation brush, even beating out expensive brushes.
I've never used premium nylon fibres before but I am impressed with these bristles.

Hello, I'm Jonathon Hill. I build things for the web.
When uploading a file to a PHP script on an Apache web server, there are several configuration options that if improperly set can get in the way. I just encountered yet another one of these, and decided to catalog them here.
There are three types of limits that affect file uploads, and the weakest link in the chain is your effective limit.
If your size limit is set to 3gb, but your time limit does not allow for the time required to upload that much data, you'll still be unable to upload those large files. Likewise, the ability to upload does no good if you do not have enough memory to process the file that was uploaded.
This post assumes an 8MB upload limit (8mb x 1024kb x 1024 bytes = 8388608). You will want to adjust this number up or down according to your needs.
Oddly, although 8mb is the default value for PHP's upload_max_filesize setting, some of the other default settings are much lower (2mb, or in some cases, only 100k).
If you are using mod_fcgid (required to run the latest PHP 5.3 VC9 NTS build for Windows), then you need to set the value of FcgidMaxRequestLen, which defaults to 100k if it is not set. (Note that some systems may put mod_fcgid settings in a file separate from the main httpd.conf file).

This is a handy compendium of many of Sternberg's most important and influential articles from his thirty-year career.
Robert J. Sternberg has argued that the conventional idea of intelligence is, at best, incomplete. Therefore, he has redefined the core concept of intelligence: Sternberg's groundbreaking, triarchic theory proposes that intelligence is measured not just by factual knowledge or "book smarts," but also by the integration of creative ability, practical know-how, and analytic reasoning.
Sternberg is the former President of the American Psychological Association, current Dean of Tufts University, and one of the top 100 psychologists of the 20th century, according to the APA Monitor on Psychology.
Sternberg has authored over 1,000 journal articles, book chapters, and books. This comprehensive collection compiles the best of Sternberg-his most influential, career-defining articles culled from over 30 years of research.
* Includes his most influential articles, such as "The nature of creativity" and "The Rainbow Project: Enhancing the SAT"

Finding the Hope, Harvest Partner, News — October 27, 2014
A Finding the Hope booklet, left on a street, became a lifesaver for a man on the verge of committing suicide.
The man's name is Joseph. He lives in Martinique, a French territory in the Caribbean, where EHC France is working with local Christians to share the message of life and hope in Jesus.
For those of us who have never reached such depths of despondency it may be difficult to grasp the relief that must come with the first awakening of hope. It could be like receiving oxygen that finally reaches deep into the lungs, allowing the breath of life to flow. It's like being handed a brand new slate on which to write the story of a new life.
The realization that Jesus is real, that He sees us, loves us and is present to rescue us from utter brokenness and sin, always creates a turning point, no matter where we are in life's circumstances. For Joseph, who struggled to find the slightest reason to live, it became the gift of a lifeline.
Many people in cities and neighbourhoods across Canada are at that same tragic crossroad. What message are they receiving?
Joseph had reached the end of the road and was desperately disappointed with life, unable to make anything better. He shared later that he saw no way out of his dilemma and believed that ending his life would finally put an end to unbearable physical and emotional pain.
In his despair he said he cried out to God, not really expecting an answer. But God heard his cry and answered quickly.
Strolling through the streets, Joseph saw a Finding the Hope booklet on the ground. He picked it up and began to read. He said that, as he read, he couldn't believe his eyes. The words spoke with clarity and convinced him that God was answering his desperate cry.
As hope began to take hold of him he grew in the assurance that his broken life could be restored.
On the back of the booklet was stamped the address of a church. He contacted the pastor, who invited him to Sunday worship. Joseph attended with his wife and daughter. Today, they live in the joy of knowing Christ is rebuilding their lives from the inside out.
This testimony is a profound reminder of the power of printed gospel literature. During this season I invite you to join us in giving thanks to God for the Gospel, for Christian witness and for His miraculous work in so many lives through the Finding the Hope outreach.

Let us reserve the characteristics of Nectar mattress for a moment. The mattress comes with a risk complimentary trial of 365 nights. That is one whole year of trial for every client. This is unprecedented. The majority of brand names provide to a hundred nights of trial. Even then, many enter into a sort of a disagreement or tussle throughout the returns. Nectar uses complimentary shipping and trouble totally free returns for a year. Then there is the life time guarantee. You would get ten years which too minimal warranty on many mattresses. Some brand names will be a little generous and will provide you twenty years minimal guarantee. Compare that with the lifetime warranty of Nectar and you would get one apparent reason that it is offering so well. Nectar mattress is also among the most fairly priced right now. It is numerous dollars less expensive than a lot of brands and one doesn't even have to think about the brand names that charge three thousand for a full size or queen size mattress.
Nectar mattress is gentle yet firm, bouncy yet there is a small sink in and it has optimal assistance with unequaled comfort. The product is a result of three years of development, ten thousand consumer tests and consideration of several materials to ensure the best, healthiest and most long lasting along with comfy active ingredients enter into the dish for a perfectly satiating sleep. Nectar bed mattress is hypoallergenic. Nectar mattress has a tencel cooling cover that promotes air blood circulation. It is resistant to insects and assists in heat wicking. The gel memory foam is accountable for even circulation of weight, assisting in pressure relief. Sleepers will not feel any pressure point and will sleep in harmony. The breathing base layer is simply as steady as it is practical to reinforce the contouring. Without adequate assistance and stability, the entire mattress will lose its comfort, firmness, bounce and coolness.
Nectar uses a layer of quilted gel memory foam, a layer of adaptive hi core memory foam, CertiPUR Certified materials that do not contain mercury or lead, TDCPP or PBDEs or any compound that triggers ozone exhaustion. Nectar mattress likewise has Oeko-TeX certification for the tencel natural fiber cover. The four layers of foam supply the ideal strength, stability, convenience, firmness and pressure relief for every sleeper.
Nectar Mattress comes in the standard size sizes. The Twin weighs 45 pounds, Twin XL weighs 48 lbs, Full weighs 68 pounds, Queen weighs 74 pounds, King weighs 89 lbs and California King weighs 89 pounds. Nectar is among the lighter bed mattress regardless of being eleven inches thick. Nectar mattress works completely with box spring beds, diva bases, standard frames, adjustable bases, floor or platform and other expensive bed.

Among the typical Nectar mattress complaints or rather issue highlighted by some people is where is Nectar bed mattress made? Nectar mattress is created in the United States. It is put together in the United States. But it is produced in China. This is quite like the Apple items. Many critics and experts have highlighted that although the bed mattress is produced in China that makes little distinction as lots of products sold in the US are actually made in the Asian production center. Some consumers and a few critics have actually highlighted how Nectar is a reasonably brand-new company and for this reason does not have the type of reliability or credibility as some other brands that have actually been around longer. This too is not truly a critique however an attempt to switch the focus from the attributes of the bed mattress and how well it is selling with customers being utterly satiated.
Among the rather unfounded Nectar bed mattress grievances has actually been the absence of Nectar bed mattress client service. Some people mention how they might not find the Nectar bed mattress contact number while it is clearly pointed out on the contact page of the official site. You can call 0344 811 0811 on Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and on weekends or vacations from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. It is not a toll totally free number though and regional rates will use depending on the company. There is likewise a multipronged technique to Nectar mattress customer service. You might call or initiate a live chat. You can reach out for available help or tweet and get a response. You can use the knowledgebase offered in the FAQ area.

Will direct-to-physician pharma marketing be the same after Purdue Pharma?
By Patricio Robles	 September 17th 2019 12:43
On Sunday night, embattled pharma firm Purdue Pharma filed for bankruptcy. The maker of the painkiller OxyContin has been facing lawsuits from an estimated 2,600 government entities and other groups and had struck a tentative deal to settle many of them for somewhere between $10bn to $12bn.
The lawsuits allege that Purdue was largely responsible for sparking the opioid crisis that has ravaged the US. The plaintiffs in these lawsuits point to the company's physician marketing efforts, which they say were deceptive. Specifically, the lawsuits claim that even though Purdue knew oxycodone, the key ingredient in OxyContin, was addictive, its marketing efforts claimed it wasn't and also minimized the potential for abuse.
Innovation gone awry
The billionaire family behind Purdue Pharma, the Sacklers, figure prominently in the media firestorm that has engulfed Purdue as the opioid crisis rages on.
The Sackler family's involvement in the pharma industry goes back decades. One of the family's progenitors was Arthur Sackler. He joined medical marketing agency William Douglas McAdams in the 1940s and according to The Medical Advertising Hall of Fame, "No single individual did more to shape the character of medical advertising than the multi-talented Dr. Arthur Sackler. His seminal contribution was bringing the full power of advertising and promotion to pharmaceutical marketing."
Perhaps Arthur's biggest innovation was to market drugs directly to physicians through methods such as ads in publications distributed to physicians. In 1960, he even founded his own publication, the Medical Tribune, which is described as "the first medical newspaper sent directly to doctors, which reached over one million readers in 20 countries."
While Arthur died eight years before Purdue Pharma began selling OxyContin, the kind of systematized, sophisticated and highly-efficient direct-to-physician marketing that Arthur helped pioneer is at the heart of Purdue's opioid scandal.
Since Arthur's time, direct-to-physician marketing has evolved. For instance, pharma companies don't just purchase ads that target physicians. Instead, they field large sales teams equipped with marketing materials designed and tested specifically to sway physicians. Salespeople call on physicians in a practice called detailing. They offer them "gifts", such as free samples and meals, and woo them with paid speaking engagements.
The lawsuits against Purdue paint a picture of a company that was not only incredibly aggressive at pursuing physicians using these tactics, but also amazingly adept at it. Among other things, it went so far as to create pain management and speaker-training conferences attended by thousands of physicians and medical professionals, and it recruited some of them to be a part of its speakers' bureau.
Year in and year out, Purdue was able to turn hundreds of millions of dollars in marketing spend into billions of dollars of revenue. Put simply, the company's marketing machine was effective a money- printing machine.
Dealing with the Purdue fallout
Purdue had seemingly perfected the art of convincing physicians to prescribe OxyContin but naturally, it was totally unable to contain the fallout from the opioid crisis that emerged and has now been blamed for hundreds of thousands of deaths, millions of ER visits and nearly $80bn a year in estimated economic losses.
The fallout has affected the entire pharma industry, which according to a new Gallup poll is now the least loved industry in the US, falling behind even the federal government. Its -31 net positive rating is the lowest Gallup has seen since it began tracking public perception of industries in this fashion in 2001.
Physician trust in pharma companies was also dwindling even before the Purdue scandal was front page news. In 2015, research by Deloitte Consulting and Gerson Lehrman Group (GLG) found that 75% of physicians lacked trust in information provided by to them by the pharma industry.
For pharma marketers, Purdue and the significant negative effects the opioid crisis it is blamed for have had on the industry raises important questions about the future of direct-to-physician marketing.
While pharma marketers will no doubt be forced to change their ways as regulators crack down on the industry's marketing practices, Purdue is a wake-up call and provides an opportunity for pharma marketers to rethink how they should interface with physicians and medical professionals instead of designing their efforts around what they are legally allowed to do.
The good news for pharma marketers is that despite their skepticism over pharma-supplied information, a large majority (84%) of physicians indicated that efficacy and outcome data, as well as clinical guidelines, influence their drug utilization decisions and 65% of them are open to interacting with pharma firms over social channels around this type of content.
According to Chris Franck, a principal in Deloitte Consulting's Life Sciences and Health Care practice, "Pharma should offer the proprietary clinical data and insights that drive interest but that others are not able to provide." He also said that physicians want transparency, bias-free information and assurances that pharma companies weren't monitoring their online discussions.
For pharma marketers who have been focused on helping move the needle, stepping back and taking approaches that are less aggressively sales-focused might be hard to do, but if the industry is ever going to fix the damage that has been wrought by Purdue and the opioid epidemic, regaining the trust of physicians is arguably going to have to become just as important a marketing goal as convincing physicians to write prescriptions for their drugs.
While these goals are not inherently at odds with each other, pharma marketers must understand that accomplishing them both will likely require a new set of timeframes and tactics driven in large part by ethics, not sales targets.

Q: Is jQuery's $.get() safe to call on an untrusted URL? I recently learned that jQuery's $.getJSON() is not safe to call on an untrusted URL.  What about $.get()?  Is jQuery's $.get() safe to call when the URL parameter comes from an untrusted source, or is this insecure?
This came up in a security code review I was doing, to check for XSS vulnerabilities.  Example code pattern:
$.get(url, function (...) { ... })

Does this code pattern create a XSS vulnerability, if an attacker chooses url maliciously?
Please assume that the function will handle the response from the AJAX request safely, and that url comes from an untrusted source (e.g., some other user) and can be completely controlled by the adversary.
My concern: if url is chosen by an attacker, can an attacker choose a malicious URL (e.g., containing callback=? and pointing to their own site, or something clever like that) that causes jQuery to guess that the data type should be JSONP, enable JSONP, insert a script tag into the document, and introduce a XSS vulnerability in the same way that getJSON() does?    (Since I'm not passing an explicit dataType argument to $.get(), jQuery will guess the data type, as described in the docs.  I'm not sure what the security implications of that are.)
I ran across this code pattern in code review, and I'm trying to understand whether it is a potential vulnerability.  I'm not looking for alternative ways this code could be written; instead, I want to know whether this kind of code pattern is secure as is.

Since the threat model is a bit tricky, let me give an example to help understand this better.  Suppose Bob is a user of the service and he can provide a URL that's associated with his profile.  Suppose that when Alice visits Bob's profile page in her browser, the Javascript code on the page takes the URL that Bob provided and passes it as an argument to $.get().  The question is, is this safe?  Could Bob use this to attack Alice?  Could Bob trigger Alice's browser to execute arbitrary Javascript code, with all of Alice's power?  As the linked question explains, $.getJSON() is unsafe in this scenario -- but what about $.get()?   Is it unsafe too, or is it safe?

Since I got some requests for clarification, let me try explaining/asking the question a different way.  Suppose I'm doing a code review to check whether some Javascript code contains any XSS vulnerabilities, and I see the following line of code:
$.get(url, function(resp) { /* do nothing */ });

Suppose I know that url can be completely controlled by the attacker.  Is this automatically a XSS vulnerability?  Or is this always safe?  Or if the answer is "it depends", what does it depend on?
Or, yet another way to think about this.  Suppose I'm doing a code review and I see the following line of code:
$.get(url, f);

Suppose I know that url can be completely controlled by the attacker.  What do I need to check, to verify whether this is safe (free of XSS bugs)?  I am aware that I need to check the code of f to see whether it handles the response safely, because if f is careless it could introduce a XSS bug.  My question is: is that the only thing I need to check for?  Or is this code pattern always an XSS vulnerability, regardless of how f is coded?

A: jQuery.get does pose an XSS security risk.
If you look at the source for jQuery (or the documentation for jQuery.get), you will see that jQuery.get and jQuery.post are just wrappers for jQuery.ajax({ url: url, data: data, success: success, dataType: dataType });.
There are two problems here:

*

*If dataType is jsonp, or the URL ends in =? and dataType is json, jQuery will try to make a JSONP request and then eval the script.

*If the response is a script, jQuery will execute that script unless dataType is json and the jsonp option is set to false.

So if you set dataType to json, and jsonp to false, it is safe to call jQuery.get for an unknown URL.
Vulnerable script
$.get(url, function(...) { ... });

See the example on JSFiddle.
Safe script
$.ajax(url, { jsonp: false, dataType: 'json' }).done(function(...) { ... });

See the example on JSFiddle.

A: It depends.
TL;DR Yes, it's unsafe in certain cases.
If:

*

*You're not using Content Security Policy to filter outwards request (caniuse)

*The client browser support CORS (caniuse)

*The attacker can choose the URL

Then the attacker can execute JS on your page.
A malicious server with a matching protocol, the right CORS headers (Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *) will be able to execute JS on your page thanks to jQuery automatic detection from the Content-Type header (which for JS will be script).
Example you can try on this page on stackoverflow (assuming you're on http):
$.get('http://zensuite.net/js/alert.js', console.log.bind(console));

If you want to see what happens if the CORS headers are not set:
$.get('https://zensuite.net/js/alert.js', console.log.bind(console));

Talking about your hypothesis instead, you won't likely manage to make jQuery transform a normal XHR request into a remote inclusion of a script.
After looking briefly at the code I think this won't likely happen (unless there is a bug somewhere), because you can switch to "remote script mode" only before asking for a transport and if your dataType is

*

*json when the URL match the rjsonp regex /(=)\?(?=&|$)|\?\?/;

*jsonp

*script
These are also vulnerable:
$.get('https://zensuite.net/js/alert.js?callback=?', console.log.bind(console), 'json');
$.get('https://zensuite.net/js/alert.js', console.log.bind(console), 'jsonp');
$.get('https://zensuite.net/js/alert.js', console.log.bind(console), 'script');

This is of course not relevant for the question, given the fact you can just use $.get to execute remote code.

A:
 Does this code pattern create a XSS vulnerability, if an attacker chooses url maliciously?

Edit: yes, but not for the reason in your question.
The weird auto-JSONP feature is internally applied to AJAX requests using ajaxPrefilter("json jsonp"). So it applies to the json prefilter list but not other types or the default *. However, prefilters apply before the response occurs, so this can't happen just because the server replies with a JSON-like type.
(Currently—as of 1.11.2—the docs for getJSON don't describe the circumstances under which this potentially-dangerous behaviour fires exactly. And the docs for get and ajax don't mention auto-JSONP at all. So maybe it should be considered a bug. Certainly given how poorly-specified this is, I would not rely on it staying the same in future versions of jQuery.)
The actual reason it's vulnerable (as demonstrated by framp and toothbrush) is that without a dataType parameter jQuery will guess one from the response. If the attacker's URL hits a resource served as a JS-like Content-Type, jQuery will guess it is JavaScript and eval it. Note: for the AJAX request to get far enough for this to work, for a resource on a third-party server, it would have to include CORS headers.
$.get(url, function (...) { ... }, 'json');

This version is not vulnerable to the response type guessing. However, it is vulnerable to the auto-JSONP filter.
To be safe, you have to both set the dataType option and, if that option is json, also the jsonp: false option. Unfortunately, you can't set the jsonp option in the get() method. You should be able to do it by passing in an options dictionary instead of parameters, but you can't because this API is currently completely non-functional due to jQuery being a sad mess of broken Do-What-I-Mean APIs whose behaviour it is (increasingly) difficult to predict.
So the only safe way to fetch JSON from an untrusted URL is via basic ajax:
$.ajax(url, {dataType: 'json', jsonp: false});

A: That is a good point. But how about forcing the data-type format to ensure it won't be used as JSONP
$.ajax({
    url: url,
    data: data,
    success: success,
    dataType: dataType  // force text/plain
});

The acutal $.getJSON() is used for convenience when we want to speed up on parsing, so if you are really aware of security use customised $.ajax() calls.
More info: http://api.jquery.com/jquery.ajax/

A: This is an XSS vulnerability for jQuery < 3.0.0, according to https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2015-9251

jQuery before 3.0.0 is vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS) attacks when a cross-domain Ajax request is performed without the dataType option, causing text/javascript responses to be executed.

A: You know, that hacker could simply open the dev console and write any $.get he wants, he doesn't even have to change your url variable. In fact, he can run absolutely any code he wants, as long as it doesn't interfer with the same domain policy. The whole point of client side security is make sure the guy could only hack himself.
So no need to try to secure anything client side, the idea is you cannot trust anything that comes from the browser, so you should always check the data received in your server, and allow minimal interfacing between the two (know your parameters, their types, etc).

Home Cookies & Brownies Brownies Candy Bar Brownie Recipe- Use Up Those Halloween Candy Bars!
So, I'm in the Grocery Store, like I am just about every day (sometimes twice… I really have to make better lists), and the Halloween Candy displays are all up. CANDY CANDY CANDY.
See…the other day I made these great Brownies, and I was rolling ideas around in my head about how to play with the recipe… I see all those Halloween Chocolate Bars… and I'm thinking to myself…. Brownies…. Candy Bars…. ahhhhhh (lightbulb comes on) (well… fluorescent bulb slowly begins to glow with barely enough light to read by…) Candy Bar Brownies!.
With the help of my favorite produce guy, John (he caught me standing in the aisle muttering to myself, and decided to help me move along… guess I was frightening the other customers), I loaded my cart with assorted favorites…. Milky Way Bars, Snickers, Hershey's- Milk and White Chocolate with Oreos, Butterfingers, Heath Bars and Rolos…(ok, drooling now), and took the lot home.
The Angry Baker and her able assistant (the 10 year old) got to work… We melted, stirred, chopped, mixed and baked. The results…. delicious.
These easy Brownies are a surprise package… different flavors in every bite.
This Halloween, when the kids come in from Trick or Treats…. or you find yourself with some Chocolate Bars in the give-away bowl at the end of the evening… set some favorite bars aside to chop up and bake into Candy Bar Brownies.
I've included the easy recipe… and some step-by-step photos… so you can have your own Candy Bar Brownies in no time.
Didn't Get Enough Candy While Trick or Treating?
You can use ANY Chocolate Bars for this recipe... just give them a rough chop, and throw them into the batter. I love, love, love Caramel, so my Candy Bar Brownies tend to be heavy on the Milky Ways and Rolos... but the kids love peanut butter.... so when I bake for them... Reeses Peanut Butter Cups and Butterfingers go in. Like nuts? Snickers and Payday Bars.... Or ... Just dump out the Halloween Sack and use them ALL. The Brownie is chewy, not cakey, and is perfect with a cup of coffee or tea... or a big glass of milk.
Put the Unsweetened Chocolate and the Butter in a microwave safe bowl (I tend to use my large Pyrex measuring cup), cover it (unless you truly enjoy cleaning goo splatter out of the microwave) and melt them together in the microwave - takes about 2 minutes in mine. Yes, you can do this on the stove top. Then stir it all together until smooth. Let it cool a bit.
Put about 1/2 to 2/3 of the batter into the baking pan. Just eyeball it.
Add the Chopped Candy Bars to the rest of the batter.... mix it up to coat the pieces.... then dollop the batter coated candy onto the base. Sort of smooth it out.
Bake the Candy Bar Brownies for 28 minutes.
Cool on a rack for 15 minutes... then lift out of the pan with the foil, and let sit on the rack.
You can now cut and eat.... If you are careful, you can cut on the foil, without cutting the foil... this makes the whole set of brownies easy to transport... you can just move the cut brownies on foil into a storage container and GO!!

As we drove along the dirt road, our rear view of Black Rock City disappeared behind the playa dust.
"So what'd ya learn this week'?" my buddy asked.
"I learned to heal people using my spirit animal." I said.
If you, like me, have been to Burning Man, or any other environment outside of your typical lifestyle, then you might have felt the same sense of tension that I felt.
Before going to Burning Man, I felt scared about living on the desert, about wilting under the heat, about running out of water. I was even scared about the dust on the playa.
Throughout life, you may have faced many situations that you're not familiar with, which made you feel tense. When this happens — you either stay in the box you created for yourselves and remain tense, or, you move beyond it.
Your box defines the people, behaviors, and situations that are acceptable to you. You have your box for a reason — it's to keep you safe.
Suppose you have a box with the belief that it is not okay to be in the same room with a mountain lion. One day you get home, find a mountain lion in your house. You'll feel fear, and then run for your life.
This is a good belief to keep, as your box is keeping you safe. However, you also have many other boxes that you don't need anymore, because your world has evolved. Those boxes will cause you unnecessary stress and tension.
Your box is defined by a belief. For example, one of your boxes is defined by the belief that it is not okay to be in a room with a lion.
If I adopted this new belief, what opens up for me?
Then ask yourself: if you stay with the old belief, what's the worse thing that could happen?
If the new belief gets you closer to what you want, and your old belief gets you nowhere close to where you want to be, then you'll feel a desire to drop your old belief and adopt the new belief.
Focus on what will open up to you, and you'll find the courage to do whatever it is that you're fearing to do.
Whenever you do something you fear, you'll feel like you broke through a barrier. You'll feel on top of the world. You'll look back scoffingly at your old self, wondering why you thought it was a big deal.
But it doesn't stop there. You'll eventually feel stressed and tense again, and that's when you can choose again to move past your fear by doing whatever you fear next.
If you choose to use this strategy, the box that you have to live in will get wider and wider. Until one day, your life is as wide as this world we live in. Your life is truly everything that this world has to offer.
If you're unwilling to do something, then don't do it.
If you are willing but you just fear it, then do it.
In my spirit animal class, I met a fellow student named "Jesus." Pronounced Ye-sous. Jesus is the CEO of a manufacturing company and happens to also be a gifted shamanic healer. After class, I went over to Jesus's camp for an afternoon BBQ.
As Jesus and I sat at his camp, we sipped warm margaritas and pondered over the wonders of life. Hours flew by. Eventually, it was time to get back to my camp for my evening work shift.
"Hey Jesus, I'm going to head back to my camp." I said as I got up to leave.
Jesus reached out and grabbed my hand.
"Divinity, wait." he said and leaned in to kiss me.
"Nahhh." I said as I pulled my face away from his.
"Why not?" he asked, looking surprised.
"Oh. You don't like me." Jesus mumbled disappointedly.
"Jesus, I like you. I just don't want you." I said.
I hopped on my bike and began pedaling toward the playa dust.

Apple's new iMacs are now powerful enough to support VR.
Apple unveiled macOS High Sierra during WWDC. The successor to macOS Sierra promises a slew of new features and most notably among them—support for virtual reality.
SteamVR will also be joined on Mac systems by the Unreal and Unity video game engines, all tying directly into today's newly announced Metal 2 video-processing API.
Also continuing the theme of VR support for Mac, Industrial Light and Magic staffers demonstrated the first-ever native HTC Vive demo on a Mac system. An ILM user in headset dropped TIE Fighters, Imperial Cruisers, and Darth Vader into a Star Wars-themed world, using nothing more than an on-screen GUI controlled with HTC Vive controllers.
Apple demonstrated a new commitment to VR, showcasing high-end VR for the first time running on a Mac in front of thousands of developers.
The refreshed Mac system will come with enough horsepower needed to render HTC Vive-ready content at a comfortable 90-frames-per-second refresh. This was a number that ILM shared was reached during their on stage demo.
Apple showcasing a combination of HTC Vive and Steam VR signals a new strategy on what the company may have planned when it comes to hardware development and third-party partners. Notably missing from the Apple keynote was any presence of Facebook's Oculus Rift.
MacOS High Sierra is available as a developer beta today and in public beta later this month.
Later this year, Final Cut Pro X will add support for professional 360-degree workflows with the ability to import, edit and export 360-degree video.

AllahpunditPosted at 8:01 pm on July 21, 2013
After relentlessly defending for months the Senate's ambitious overhaul of the nation's immigration laws, Sen. Marco Rubio didn't respond when House GOP leaders last week trashed it as a "flawed … massive, Obama-care like bill."
The Florida Republican's office, which churned out countless press releases touting his interviews and speeches about the legislation, hasn't said a word about immigration since the Senate passed the bill on June 27…
By stepping back from the limelight, Rubio is acknowledging the limits of his own powers of persuasion as well as political realities.
The very issue Rubio (and Harris) thought would be a game-changing, legacy-builder looks like a big liability for the Florida senator, at least right now. In the process, the self-confident presidential hopeful suddenly looks wobbly, even a little weak, as he searches for what's next.
Rubio spent six months working over Senate Republicans only to get stiffed by 70 percent of them. He has gone underground on the issue ever since, ducking reporters on Capitol Hill…
Rubio appears to have miscalculated how much Republican support he could win in the Senate – and how much conservative backlash he could avoid outside of it. And now he feels stuck…
All of this leaves the senator in the position of looking like an outlier, not a leader – not the place a guy with big ambitions wants to be.
The lesson, of course, is that there are far greater rewards in moving with the herd than in trying to change its direction, even if its direction leads over a cliff. While Rubio was working to accomplish something difficult — to improve the status quo — most of his likely rivals for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination offered no constructive proposals. And if immigration reform dies, the do-nothings will be the ones feted (and not only by Politico) for their political savvy.
Rubio is young and talented. Too bad he made the rookie mistake of trying.
First, we have the idea that "showing political strength" by pissing off the right wing gives one a certain gravitas. And then we have the need to not look like a policy "chump." Call me crazy, but I do not think these are the two things one needs to win a Republican primary. What were Obama's big policy achievements again? Romney even won his nomination by disowning his biggest policy victory. And pissing off the right is not going to get him his primary funding, especially in the age of super PACs.
But the crucial point isn't that these moves are irrational. Rather, it's that Rubio may very well have believed they were rational.
Although it is still early in the process, some conservative pundits and "tea party" activists already are writing off Rubio, R-Fla., because of his role in crafting the bipartisan "Gang of Eight" bill that the Senate passed June 27 on a 68-32 vote.
"I think it's just foolish," McCain, R-Ariz., told The Arizona Republic on Friday. "I'm not endorsing anyone, but I can tell you Marco Rubio is an articulate spokesperson for what conservatives believe in, in principle. And if we pass immigration reform, which is certainly not clear, he would get enormous credit for it."…
"We tried very hard (to pass immigration reform in 2007), and we failed, and I was still able to get the nomination," McCain said…
"I think he has helped his chances immeasurably by being involved in the immigration debate," Flake said of Rubio. "In the end, Republicans are going to want to win in the general election, and I think they will recognize that we've got to have somebody who can do that."
Now that it's clear that the base of the GOP – as expressed in the House GOP's diehard desire to kill reform – is emphatically not on board with the Senate immigration bill to which he tied his fate, his whole plan for the 2016 run is basically in a shambles and his support among conservatives is falling rapidly…
If you've watched over recent weeks, Rubio has been casting around for basically any right wing position to grab on to. First, there was his quixotic demand to shut down the government if Obamacare isn't defunded. Then yesterday he tried to filibuster the Perez nomination even after the Senate nuclear option deal. And there have been various other examples. But as Dave Weigel aptly notes, now every desperate lurch right looks self-serving, cynical and well … desperate.
So now Rubio seems trapped, on the wrong side of his party's base on a key issue – and one that looks unlikely even to deliver legislation that might have bipartisanship traction with middle-ground voters. It's one thing to say 'I bucked my party to bring change the country needs', another to say 'I bucked my party on change my country needs but it actually didn't pan out. Sorry.'
[B]oth McCain and Romney had two resources that enabled them to overcome weak fields in a context where opponents were killing each other off demolition-derby style: high name ID and a willingness to repudiate much of their own past records to build trust among movement conservatives. McCain also had a very positive personal "story" and Romney had endless sums of money…
Having been snookered and maneuvered into nominating candidates they didn't much trust or like for two consecutive cycles, conservative activists are probably going to be a lot more careful in 2016 about picking their champions and splitting their votes. For a guy like Marco Rubio, that means he has a very small margin of error in dealing with "the base." Perhaps following up his immigration reform number with a long series of base-pleasing positions will rehabilitate him enough to pass the smell test in Iowa and elsewhere; perhaps Josh is right and Marco's will smell fishier every day. But unlike McCain in 2008 and Romney in 2012, Rubio (or for that matter, any other "elite" favorite, like, say, Chris Chritie) can't count on a scattered and erratic field of rivals who keep running into each other's clown cars, or a "base" that can't make up its mind what it wants.
Here's my guess: he's toast for 2016, but might make a comeback later. He's pretty young, after all. The specific question that Josh and Ed are tossing around, though, is this: how can we say that Rubio is doomed just because he's pissed off the base over immigration reform? After all, the last two Republican nominees had big base problems too…
Rubio's problem is that, immigration aside, he's very clearly a creature of the tea party. If he runs, he's going to be one of the guys competing like a pit bull for the 40 percent of the base they represent. But with immigration working against him, he has no chance of coming out on top. In a nutshell, he's dead to the tea partiers and he's too rabidly right-wing to make a play for the center. For now, he's got nothing.
That could all change in the future, and frankly I think he'd be smart to regroup and think about 2020 or 2024. But this is why Rubio is toast for now. Immigration was his ticket to a share of the moderate vote, and that's now looking like a bad bet.
[I]t's just far too soon to know what effect support for a comprehensive bill will do to Rubio's chances. Again, even assuming nothing passes, there's no guarantee that immigration will be an effective issue in Iowa and New Hampshire, or even in the invisible primary in the months leading up to those events. There's just so much we don't know — will the economy thrive, or collapse? Will wars break out? What new issues will emerge? What new stars will emerge in the party, and who will they endorse?
Marshall believes that Rubio was something of a fluke candidate anyway, with immigration as his only real accomplishment. But that's not true. Defeating then-RINO Charlie Crist, and then winning statewide in Florida, is Rubio's real calling card. And that's not going to go away.
Indeed, we don't even yet know the outcome of the immigration fight in Congress. Even if you believe that no bill will emerge, it's easy to imagine several different scenarios in how it dies — and not all of them leave Rubio equally estranged from anti-citizenship conservatives. It's not altogether impossible, for example, that the House could pass something that they call comprehensive immigration (even without citizenship) and bring it to a conference committee, and that while the parties deadlock there Rubio becomes the champion of that "compromise."
If Schumer-Rubio passes, Rubio will own every single tiny little amnesty implementation hiccup. E-verify fails? Blame Rubio. The wall hasn't been started yet? Rubio's fault. The amnesty itself is riven with obvious fraud. Rubio got rolled.
Another Rubio ally tells Politico, "If the bill fails, the only way Republicans could win the Hispanic vote in a national election would be with him on the ticket."
This is much closer to the mark. Rubio's best hope is that Schumer-Rubio dies a quick death in the House and is forgotten by Republican primary voters as quickly as possible. Rubio could then turn the tables on Democrats, blaming their insistence on creating entire new government agencies and slush funds for activist groups for getting in the way of immigration reform.
Fresh off a bruising immigration bill fight that cost him support among some on the Republican right, Sen. Marco Rubio is refocusing on bread-and-butter issues that play better with the GOP base: defunding President Obama's health law, promoting pro-life policies and attacking the United Nations…
Mr. Rubio also on Wednesday helped lead the floor fight against Mr. Obama's nominee to head the Labor Department, arguing that Thomas E. Perez is thumbing his nose at subpoenas from the House and must be blocked…
"I don't think it's necessary for him to strain any pander muscles to maintain his friendship with conservatives," Mr Reed said. "He just needs to be himself and take the strong stands on issues he has throughout his career and he'll be fine."
Senator Marco Rubio says he supports Florida's "stand your ground" law. The Florida Republican talked with reporters Friday about the law that's been in the national spotlight during the George Zimmerman case.
Rubio said self-defense is a constitutional right.
"Every law is open for review, but I think we should be reminded that every American has a right to self-defense."
