Dragon Wars was the second last IIGS game to come out of Interplay Productions, the last being Out of This World.
Interplay co-founder and IIGS veteran 'Burger' Becky Heineman (formerly Bill Heinemen) programmed the IIGS version. Dragon Wars followed the tradition of Bard's Tale; it's an RPG whereby you command a band of adventurers to traverse 3D mazes and slay monsters left, right and centre. Being a fan of Bard's Tale, I was interested in Dragon Wars upon hearing about it...but it didn't quite live up to my expectations.
Dragon Wars was meant to have some neat additions to Bard's Tale and it does (namely the depth added to the combat system) but what detracted most about Dragon Wars for me was the bold use of using the same colour palette throughout the entire game, which can be attributed to the fact that monsters showed up in the foreground of your 3D perspective of the environment, as opposed to Bard's Tale where monsters were given their own individual background without overlaying them onto the 3D perspective. While Todd Camasta's artwork was very well drawn, it could have benefited from custom colour palettes for each monster. Bard's Tale I and II for the IIGS used custom colour palettes and I think the artwork in those games are the some of the finest examples of 4-bit graphics ever. Dragon Wars seemed a step backward in that regard.
I was also disappointed at the use of GS/OS and the MidiSynth Tool (Tool 35) for the game. The game plays slower than the Bard's Tale I and II and I personally don't like MidiSynth music, especially after the wonderful music found in Bard 1 and 2. I have included Tool 35 on the disk image so if you haven't got it in your System/Tool directory you can copy it there. The disk image itself doesn't include GS/OS so you'll have to load it from System 6 or 5.
In all fairness however, you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. As for me however, I haven't peeked beyond the first chapter of Dragon Wars and so can't describe the more important elements of gameplay, puzzle solving and maze mapping. That, I'll leave up to you. Happy adventuring!

Syria (nacida en Roma, 26 de febrero de 1977) es una cantante italiana. que se dio a conocer después de ganar la sección de nuevos valores del Festival de San Remo.

Referencias

Bibliografía

Se dio a conocer en Italia en 1996, al ganar la sección de nuevos valores del Festival de San Remo, con el tema "Non ci sto". Al año siguiente volvió al Teatro Ariston de la ciudad ligur con "Sei tu", que la llevó al tercer puesto de la sección oficial.
En 1998 fue elegida para cantar la versión italiana del tema central de la película de Disney, Mulan, llamado "Riflesso" ("Reflection" en inglés, interpretado por Christina Aguilera). Fue en ese año cuando Syria empezó a dejar a un lado su faceta de baladista a raíz de San Remo para iniciarse primero en el pop con su álbum Station Wagon en 1998, que no le reportó demasiado éxito y luego en el pop rock en 2001, al publicar Come una goccia d'acqua, cuyos sencillos como "Se t'amo o no" o "Fino al cielo" hicieron que consiguiera el disco de platino en el país transalpino.

En 2001 volvió a San Remo con "Fantasticamente amore", no con demasiada suerte, aunque el tema resultó un éxito durante el verano de ese mismo año. En 2002 publicó Le mie favole, cuyo sencillo principal "Se tu non sei con me" pegó fuerte en las listas de éxitos italianas. En 2002, debutó como cantautora con la canción Lettera ad Alice. En 2003 volvió de nuevo a San Remo con "L'amore è", con el que obtuvo un quinto puesto.

Durante 2009, inició una experimentación con electro-dance para lo cual adoptó el nombre artístico de Airys para su EP Vivo, amo, esco''.

Ha participado en distintos programas de televisión como entrenador en Star Academy de RAI 2 en 2011 o como jurado en TOP DJ de Italia 1 en 2016

FCA initiative signals more proactive approach to technology, innovation and regulatory compliance, says expert FCA initiative signals more proactive approach to technology, innovation and regulatory compliance, says expert
FCA initiative signals more proactive approach to technology, innovation and regulatory compliance, says expert
Out-Law News | 02 Jun 2014 | 10:03 am | 2 min. read
Businesses will be able to obtain help from the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) in understanding how the implementation of new technology or other innovations they wish to deploy impacts on their regulatory duties under a new initiative launched by the regulator.
The FCA's chief executive Martin Wheatley said that the aim of 'Project Innovate' is "to make sure positive developments – by which I mean the ones that genuinely promise to improve the lives of consumers or clients – are supported by the regulatory environment".
"It's an imperative for regulators to be standing on the right side of progress," Wheatley said in a speech last week.
Under Project Innovate, businesses will have the chance to seek advice from the FCA on how to "navigate the regulatory system" when developing new business models and products. In addition, the FCA will review whether changes need to be made to the regulatory regime to account for new technology "rather than the other way round", Wheatley said.
"We want an FCA that creates room for the brightest and most innovative companies to enter the sector," Wheatley said. "So, priority areas here might include the likes of mobile banking, online investment or money transfer, where we're seeing innovations such as apps that allow you to take a picture of a bill and make payments with a tap of the smartphone. The possibilities opening up for consumers are extraordinary – and it's clearly important they can be developed in the UK."
"To help this happen, the FCA is opening its doors to financial service firms (large and small) who are developing innovative approaches that aren't explicitly addressed by current regulation – or where the guidance may be ambivalent," he said.
Technology and payments law expert Angus McFadyen of Pinsent Masons, the law firm behind Out-Law.com, said that the initiative would be welcomed by companies of all sizes.
"It sounds like the FCA will be taking a much more proactive approach to helping industry bridge the gap between technology and regulation. Traditionally the FCA has been reluctant to give 'clearance' or focused advice to firms on these areas, leaving the firms at risk if problems appear down the line, and it would be good to see a shift here."
McFadyen said that an example where technological developments and innovation in a market had outpaced regulatory guidance was in the retail advice market.
In this market a number of online tools are available which help people make investment decisions, but there has been widespread debate about whether the information presented to users of the tools constitutes retail investment advice, the provision of which is heavily regulated, or whether it merely acts to guide investors through the process of selecting financial products to invest in, he said.
McFadyen also said that the move to support innovation is also aligned with one of the statutory objectives of the new Payment System Regulator (PSR).
"Right now, the PSR is working on its strategy for supporting innovation, identifying areas that it should get stuck into, and those that would be best left to develop organically," he said.

Q: Edge classification in a DFS According to the book (Intro to Algorithm), in dfs, edges are classified as 4 kinds:

*

*Tree Edge, if in edge (u,v), v is first discovered, then (u, v) is
a tree edge.

*Back Edge, if ......, v is discovered already and v is an ancestor, then it's a back edge.

*Forward Edge, if ......, v is discovered already and v is a descendant of u, forward edge it is.

*Cross Edge, all edges except for the above three.

My question is how can I identify whether v is u's ancestor or descendant when I'm trying to figure out if (u, v) is a back or forward edge?

A: If you really need it, you can check it by maintaining so called entry and exit times for each node. During the run of the algorithm, you increment a time variable (starting from 0, of course) each time you encounter a new vertex. The times entry_t(v), exit_t(v) are initially unset for all vertices.
When you first encounter a vertex, you set entry(v):=time. When you exit a vertex by an up edge (ie. poping the vertex from the stack), you set its exit(v):=time. With that, you have

*

*if entry(u) is set and exit(u) is not set, then u is ancestor of the current vertex (ie. vu is a back edge)

*if entry(u)>entry(current), then u is descendant from the current vertex (current->u is a forward edge)

*otherwise, it is a cross edge

Note that these relations are made for checking during the run of the algorithm. After the algorithm has completed, a check of ancestry is basically
u is_descendant_of v = entry(u)>entry(v) and exit(u)<=exit(v)

Q: /var/lib/dpkg/status file as a repository for packages When I execute apt-show-versions, then I see few dozen packages with No available version in archive status. For example:
# apt-show-versions -a -p ffmpeg
ffmpeg:i386 6:0.8.17-1 install ok installed
No stable version
ffmpeg:i386 6:0.8.17-1 installed: No available version in archive
#

Common thing for all those packages is that they all have /var/lib/dpkg/status as an only available repository. For example:
# apt-cache policy ffmpeg
ffmpeg:
  Installed: 6:0.8.17-1
  Candidate: 6:0.8.17-1
  Version table:
 *** 6:0.8.17-1 0
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
#

Even packages with versions available in repository list /var/lib/dpkg/status as a repository with the lower priority:
# apt-cache policy tcpdump
tcpdump:
  Installed: 4.6.2-5+deb8u1
  Candidate: 4.6.2-5+deb8u1
  Version table:
 *** 4.6.2-5+deb8u1 0
        500 http://http.debian.net/debian/ jessie/main i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
#

Why is /var/lib/dpkg/status file listed as a repository for packages?

A: I hope I understand well.  This is information, that a particular version is on your system.
for Example
$ LANG=C apt-cache policy k3b
k3b:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 2.0.2-8
  Version table:
     2.0.2-8 0
        500 http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie/main amd64 Packages

I have no k3b on my system, so nothing is in my status-file. They is no ffmpeg package available in your sources. I have backports and deb-multimedia.
     LANG=C apt-cache policy ffmpeg
ffmpeg:
  Installed: 10:2.6.9-dmo1
  Candidate: 10:2.6.9-dmo1
  Version table:
 *** 10:2.6.9-dmo1 0
        300 http://www.deb-multimedia.org/ jessie/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     7:3.2-2~bpo8+2 0
        100 http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie-backports/main amd64 Packages

LANG=C  cat /var/lib/dpkg/status | egrep "Package: ffmpeg"-A9
Package: ffmpeg
Status: install ok installed
Priority: optional
Section: graphics
Installed-Size: 1951
Maintainer: Christian Marillat <marillat@deb-multimedia.org>
Bugs: mailto:marillat@deb-multimedia.org
Architecture: amd64
Source: ffmpeg-dmo
Version: 10:2.6.9-dmo1

In the status file is your Version too.
apt-show-versions parses the dpkg status file and the files in /var/apt/lists. It seems you have upgradet from wheezy to jessie. And some packages from wheezy on your system.
I am not good explaining in english. I hope it was comprehensible


i contacted the company by phone (their 1-800 number on warranty card) and they IMMEDIATELY apologized profusely and e-mailed me the manual. Excellent customer service during this.
Have you tried www.craigslist.org I also saw one at a thrift store not long ago. They also have parts and manuals at www.ice-creammakers-and-more.com. Good luck I hope this helps.
Do a 1/2 to 2/3 batch. Put a book and a soup can on top of the mixing arm to keep it down.
The machine does make wonderful Ice cream, however it is noisy and fiddly. Do not try the full batch as it just doesn't work. I find doing 2 half size batches works best. Also find a spare room to run the noisy beast in.
Yes I too would guess motor burnout ( Motor is very overworked as ice cream hardens) You could replace the motor but I would suggest buying a new one because the cost of a major repair like that may very well cost more then a new unit!
I hope I answered the question to your satisfaction!
The ice cream makers have a 3-year warranty - call Cuisinart to get a replacement - you may have to pay for shipping, but that's it.
if the motor goes, it would probably be cheaper to buy a new maker... but try www.jardencs.com and call the 800 number under the Rivel Logo.
Motor and gear box are bad, need to purchase a new one. Is one ava?
Have a manual for Rival 8605-M 6 Quart Ice Cream Maker?

Ai art & content is sweeping through the community
(Black PR Wire) A new online marketplace, Melanated AI (www.melanated.ai), is dedicated to celebrating and supporting the work of AI artists and creators of color. This unique platform allows these artists to sell their art as digital downloads, prints, canvas, or non-fungible tokens (NFTs).
Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are a digital asset that represents ownership of a unique item, such as a digital artwork. They have become an increasingly popular medium for artists and collectors in the digital art world, allowing for the creation and trade of unique, verifiable digital items.
NFTs offer a new avenue for artists to monetize their work and reach new audiences. By selling their artwork as NFTs, artists can potentially earn a higher price for their work, as collectors are willing to pay a premium for the uniqueness and authenticity of the piece. This can be particularly valuable for emerging AI artists who may not have a large following or established reputation.
Currently there is a debate on the ownership of AI artwork since its generated by crafting text prompt sand feeding them into software. The question of ownership in the context of AI artwork is a complex and often debated topic. On one hand, AI artwork is created using algorithms and software, which raises questions about the extent to which the artist can claim ownership of the final product. On the other hand, many AI artists argue that they play a significant role in the creative process and should be recognized as the creators of the work. Overall, the debate over ownership in the context of AI artwork is ongoing, and there is no one-size-fits-all solution. However, by taking an active role in the creative process and using their own original content as input, AI artists can assert their ownership of the work and claim a significant part of the creation.
Melanated AI was founded with the goal of increasing representation and visibility for AI artists and creators of color within the art world. It is a place where these artists can showcase their talent and reach new audiences, while also monetizing their work.
The platform features a diverse range of art styles and mediums, including digital illustrations, graphic design, and 3D modeling. Customers can browse and purchase artwork by theme, style, or artist, making it easy to discover new talent.
Melanated AI is also committed to educating the public about the role of AI in art and creativity. The platform will also host regular events and workshops featuring AI artists and experts.
"We are thrilled to launch Melanated AI, a platform that celebrates and supports the work of AI artists and creators of color," said Aquarius Maximus (aka Technologist Tavonia Evans), Founder of Melanated AI. "We believe that representation and diversity in the art world is crucial, and we are excited to offer a space for these talented artists to share their work and connect with new audiences."

Halsey Opens Up About What Motivated Her To Change Her Name
Halsey is opening up about the big motivator behind her name change.
The 26-year-old singer was born Ashley, but changed to Halsey when she was just a teen and while she was working on her debut album, Badlands.
Speaking with Cosmopolitan, Halsey explained that the reason was because she "had to become somebody completely different" at the time.
"At the time, I felt that Ashley didn't deserve to be famous and successful because she wasn't that special, but if I made Halsey, maybe she could be," she shared. "[Changing my name] gave me the opportunity to create a new persona that wasn't bound by the expectations I had for myself or the limitations that others placed on me because of my upbringing or my socioeconomic situation."
Halsey added that she "created a person, and she could do everything. There was no way that Ashley was going to become a king, but I made a new name for myself and took her to paranormal, supernatural heights."
Just recently Halsey performed with Kelsea Ballerini at the 2020 CMT Awards, and there was a lot of backlash to their performance. See what Kelsea said to the haters here…

Review: HomeKit compatible First Alert Onelink Safe & Sound smoke detector more than it appears
By Andrew O'Hara
Sunday, June 10, 2018, 12:41 pm PT (03:41 pm ET)
By acting as a pair of safety sensors, a speaker, a HomeKit device, an Alexa smart assistant, and soon an AirPlay 2 speaker, First Alert's Onelink Safe & Sound wants to be a welcome addition to any home. AppleInsider checks it out.
One of the biggest hurdles for smart home devices is convincing users they need them in their home. They need to offer some sort of tangible benefit to a traditionally low-tech option. A smoke alarm is basically a safety necessity, so First Alert already has a good hook from the get-go with the Onelink Safe & Sound.
Subscribe to AppleInsider on YouTube
The Onelink Safe & Sound is a combo device, checking multiple boxes of convenience along the way. First and foremost, it acts as a smart smoke and carbon monoxide detector. Secondly, it builds in a powerful speaker, that works with smart home platforms such as HomeKit and Amazon's Alexa.
Let's take a look at each of these components, and see how they compare to other options.
Smoke and carbon monoxide detector
First Alert is commonly known as the maker of inexpensive and single-featured smoke detectors, and this isn't that. Aside from having both smoke and carbon monoxide sensors together in a single product, it has a few other tricks up its sleeve.
Included in the box is everything needed to get going, even with whatever detector was currently in use. A pair of screws, a mounting plate, three different power adapter cables, and an instruction manual accompany the Safe & Sound.
Getting started, the Safe & Sound was dead simple to install. It took us maybe two minutes to actually do the full installation. We hopped up on a ladder, twisted off our existing detector, unscrewed the mounting plate, screwed into place the new mounting plate, used one of the included power adapters to tie into the existing wiring, and twisted the Safe & Sound into place.
Anyone will be able to install the Safe & Sound, unlike some home automation in-wall outlets, switches, or thermostats.
Safe & Sound ties into the Onelink app, which gives it its smart features. After registering and pairing the product within the app, Safe & Sound will be able to send you alerts from anywhere, letting you know if anything is amiss. This can provide users some peace of mind.
One of our favorite features is the ability to hush the alarm in the case of accidental triggers.
Imagine you're in the kitchen and a pan is putting off a bit more smoke than you anticipated. As it should, the smoke alarm starts to sound, amplifying an already frustrating situation. Luckily, the Safe & Sound can be quickly and temporarily hushed using the button on the side, or the Onelink app. This silences the alarm and gives you a few moments to turn the fan on and clear out the room.
We also are fans of the built-in nightlight. It would have been nice if there was an integrated motion sensor to trigger this, but it is useful to have in hallways other areas throughout your home during the night.
If we compare this to a traditional smoke detector, it's clear there are quite a few benefits. Remote alerts and notifications, temporary hush when accidentally triggered, and carbon monoxide detection alongside smoke.
Built-in speaker
We can't undersell how much we love the fact that Safe & Sound has a built-in speaker. It is exceptionally convenient and makes use of the existing wiring running through your ceilings.
Music can be streamed and controlled from the Onelink app through a variety of sources. Amazon Music, Pandora, iHeartRadio, tunein, SiriusXM, and (soon) Spotify are all options. If you'd like to play music from your local library, however, it gets a bit wonky right now.
Playing music from your library, or Apple Music, you have to switch to Bluetooth mode within the app. Then, connect to the speaker in Bluetooth settings. Music can now be played from the Music app, or any other app for that matter.
This is clearly not ideal.
What's more, while in Bluetooth mode, we noticed quite a bit of disruption in the audio stream. Bluetooth just isn't known for crystal clear audio, and we noticed it seemed particularly jumpy when playing to the Safe & Sound.
Fortunately, Safe & Sound will soon support the recently released AirPlay 2 protocol. Using this, music can be streamed through Wi-Fi and will have much-improved quality. On top of that, AirPlay 2 also allows for multi-room streaming.
Right from your iOS or tvOS device, music can be streamed to all AirPlay 2 speakers at the same time, including the Onelink. Siri can even be used to initiate playback, as well as to control it. We will certainly have to revisit the Safe & Sound once AirPlay 2 support is added.
Turning to audio quality right now, when playing through one of the built-in services and not Bluetooth, everything sounded pretty great, though it did lack in the volume and bass departments. Safe & Sound just isn't large enough to move the air needed to produce substantial bass. It also needed a bit more volume to it, though this could just be a case for picking up more of these for each room in the house.
Audio had some solid separation, with the biggest emphasis on the mids, moving into the highs. Both the high and low ends could use a tad more oomph, especially with rock and rap genres.
We wouldn't say this is the most premium sounding speaker, but it did sound good, and being mounted on the ceiling gave it a lot of coverage in the room. When we look at the cost of the Safe & Sound, it is clear that it is more akin to a $100-150 Bluetooth speaker than a replacement for a $200+ dedicated speaker.
Any other speaker will occupy space your shelf or need dedicated wiring run through your walls. Wi-Fi gives it a lot of additional functionality to stream from your favorite services, without needing a phone to act as the source.
Soon, AirPlay 2 will be the killer feature for the Onelink, being able to tie into any other AirPlay 2-equipped speaker. Certainly, many dedicated speakers will win-out in an audio comparison, but there will always be tradeoffs.
HomeKit and Alexa
Being able to tie all the previous features together with smart home and smart assistant integration really ties everything up with a bow. HomeKit offers lots of functionality and automation options, and Alexa offers a useful way to interface with many different smart home devices and skills.
A unique code is printed on the back, side, and instructions to pair with HomeKit and the Home app. After pairing, three devices will be available; a smoke detector, a CO detector, and a nightlight. HomeKit is able to send notifications if either the smoke or CO sensor detects something, and is able to control the brightness and color of the nightlight.
Automations and scenes can be set up as well. In our test home, we set up several different routines that are a decent starting point. To make sure we got alerted of something gone wrong anywhere in the home, we turned several different lights red and top brightness if either sensor detects anything, then reverting after it stops. We also used a motion sensor to turn on the nightlight whenever someone happens to be walking through in the middle of the night.
We have a love/hate relationship with Alexa. There are loads more skills that Alexa has that Siri doesn't, but it can also be hit or miss on whether she is able to actually perform them. This really isn't First Alert's problem, though.
Alexa was most useful for us when controlling music playback. She shined here, especially with all the different services she could stream from.
Alexa had no issues hearing us from across the room, and when we tied her into things like the Hue lights, our smart pet feeder, and even our FordLink in our car, there was a lot she was useful for.
Each of the Safe & Sound's primary features does a great job standing out from low-tech, and even other "high-tech" products. There are clear benefits of using a smart smoke/CO detector, the ceiling-integrated Wi-Fi speaker is way more convenient than others, and smart home/Alexa integration really make the whole product more powerful.
Audio quality - especially over Bluetooth —left a great deal to be desired, and AirPlay 2 is still MIA. AirPlay 2's unavailability right now is not at the fault of First Alert, and is instead on Apple for delaying it significantly from its expected launch alongside iOS 11. That said, it remains to be seen when the firmware update for AirPlay 2 will arrive.
Once it does, it solves our audio streaming problems over Bluetooth and adds a ton of new functionality in the form of Siri control, multi-room playback, and better audio quality.
We'll come back to this later, when AirPlay 2 support arrives.
The First Alert Onelink Safe & Sound is available for preorder now from Amazon, with availability starting on June 12th. It will run you $249, which can be a lot for a smoke detector, but everything combined it feels like a steal.

Davis Cup: Pakistan not half as bad as Rio, says Aqeel
Veteran tennis player urges ITF to follow IOC's example
Natasha Raheel August 24, 2016

KARACHI: Veteran tennis player Aqeel Khan has once again voiced his disappointment with Pakistan being forced to play their Davis Cup match in a foreign venue — this time in New Zealand, where the two sides will clash in their all-important Asia/Oceania Group I relegation tie next month.
Pakistan have been unable to host any Davis Cup matches since 2005 due to the International Tennis Federation's (ITF) concerns regarding security, thereby forcing the national squad to play their ties abroad ever since.
Pakistan Tennis' Greatest Lost Talent
According to Aqeel, the ITF can take a leaf out of the International Olympic Committee's (IOC) book, with the organisation allowing the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro to host the recently concluded Olympics despite a recent report in The Independent naming 21 Brazilian cities in the list of world's most dangerous cities.
"The ITF should play its role in promoting the diversity of Davis Cup by encouraging smaller countries like Pakistan to host their home ties," Aqeel told The Express Tribune. "We have been deprived of international action at home for too long now, and ITF's reasons for not letting us hold the event here is something that can be worked on, as I believe we are capable enough to provide the requisite security."
He added, "If the IOC can stick with Rio for Olympics despite the law and order problems, then anyone can see that Pakistan isn't half as bad. If the IOC can trust Brazil with a mega event like Olympics, then Davis Cup ties aren't a problem to manage either."
Unprecedented honour: Aqeel Khan takes centre court
Pakistan returned to Group I in 2015, a feat they had achieved nine years earlier before being relegated to Group II.
However, the challenge now is to maintain their place in Group I after they lost their first-round tie 5-0 to China in March.
"This tie [against New Zealand] was supposed to be our home tie," explained Aqeel. "Playing New Zealand in their country obviously won't help us, as the choice of surface will be theirs."
Aqeel Khan uncertain about coaching career
The Karachi-based player further said that the last time Pakistan played in New Zealand, the hosts used indoor hard courts, which were surprisingly slow. "They make courts according to their strengths, while if we were playing in Pakistan, we'd have that advantage."
Published in The Express Tribune, August 24th, 2016.
J. Niaz | 5 years ago | Reply ITF must realize that safe venues can easily be provided in Pakistan. The Pakistan Tennis Federation needs to be more active here.
Hari Om | 5 years ago | Reply It would be foolish of ITF to follow Aqeel Khan's advice and allow playing of tennis matches in Pakistan when sportspersons from Pakistan's as Close as Teeth to Lips Iron Brother, the Peoples Republic of China, thought Rio de Janeiro was a lot safer than anywhere in Pakistan. Here recollect that China participated at the Rio 2016 Olympics but insisted on playing their March 2016 Davis Cup Tennis tie with Pakistan in a third country, namely Sri Lanka.

With allergy season upon us, the next few months can be a miserable time for dogs and a frustrating time for vets and owners alike.
There are many options when thinking about what to use to help alleviate the symptoms of allergy. Steroids, although cheap and effective at relieving itch, are not to be administered without caution and careful consideration of side effects for long-term use. Antihistamines, as in humans, can help reduce itch but there is some debate as to their efficacy if used alone. Immunotherapy is certainly a consideration but one that may take a long time to produce results and may also require life long administration.
Due to the above factors, another useful method of assisting in the management of the symptoms of atopy is topical rehydration therapy.
It is now well recognized that dogs with atopy have a skin barrier defect and as such, products that aim to rehydrate the skin and help skin barrier function can be useful in helping to manage allergic dermatitis.
The Ermidrà® topical skin range from Vetruus has been specially formulated with this in mind.
Shampoo therapy is considered by many as a useful adjunctive option in helping to alleviate the symptoms of atopy. Bathing with a non-irritant shampoo is useful in removing allergens from the surface of the skin and is likely to have a direct soothing effect on the skin.
Ermidrà® Shampoo is a pH balanced mild shampoo that is both cleansing and soothing for itch and is indicated for sensitive, reddened skin. It contains zinc gluconate that cleanses the skin and helps regulate moisture content. Betaine and Epilobium, which is an effective emollient, have been added to soothe and rehydrate the skin. Ermidrà® Shampoo should be applied and left on the skin for 5-6 minutes before being rinsed and the animal dried. Repeat the application twice a week for two weeks before maintaining with a once weekly bath.
Although shampoo therapy is beneficial, in some cases the very action of shampooing can strip the epidermal lipid barrier that protects the skin and may lead to easier penetration of the surface of the skin by allergens. For this reason it is advisable to follow all shampoo baths with additional rehydration therapy.
Ermidrà® Spray is an easy to use moisturising spray designed to rehydrate the skin and help repair skin barrier function thus reducing trans-epidermal water loss. Ermidrà® Spray contains Zinc Gluconate, Epilobium, Propylene Glycol and D-Panthenol. These essential ingredients all help to rehydrate and normalize the water content of the skin. Liposomes are micro-capsules which penetrate deeper into the skin layers and slowly release the moisturising agents. To apply Ermidrà® Spray, shake well before spraying abundantly over the affected area of skin or against the growth of the hair. Ermidrà® Spray may be applied several times a day if required to alleviate itch and can also be used immediately after shampoo baths.
Ermidrà® Foam is a unique cleansing foam containing Oatmilk, Propylene Glycol, Betaine and Chlorhexidine Digluconate. This combination of ingredients is useful for relieving the itch and dryness associated with atopy. The presentation of these actives in a foam formulation means clients can use it easily without the need for water baths, which makes Ermidrà® Foam suitable for dogs where water bathing is difficult, where animals are hospitalized and need cleansing, for animals recovering from surgical procedures and for owners who prefer not to use wet shampoo therapy.
Ermidrà® Foam is also suitable for cats suffering with dry flaky skin. With a pleasant fragrance, Ermidrà® Foam can also be used as a general cleanser for dogs, cats, puppies and kittens, as well as small furries.
The new Ermidrà® range from Vetruus can be used to rehydrate skin and alleviate the symptoms of atopy this allergy season. Presented in shampoo, spray and foam presentations the Ermidrà® range is beneficial for the pet and very convenient for the client.

Any help is appreciated!

A: First, I suggest SSH-ing your server and TCPing-ing or Netcat-ing (ok, I'm stopping) your remote MySQL server, so you see if it really can be accessed. Some hosts - mainly shared - require you to ask them to enable remote MySQL first (some have this option on CPanel).
Second, some MySQL servers whitelist some clients to access itself, exclusively. phpMyAdmin can help you in reading and setting this configuration.

This was originally posted on June 17th, 2010.
During a round of watching YouTube videos for hours on end one night, I found this one video where the cast of characters looked eerily familiar. Now, you've probably heard the story of how Mobile Suit Gundam got to where it is today (Reader: "About 9,000 times"). When Gundam aired in 1979, it was canceled and cut short of it's promised near 50 episode run.
Let's say that the characters are real actors and they struggled to find jobs to pay the bills after the series ended… They needed any job they could find (not any kind of job… *cough*). Well, the show you're about to see could have been the show where Char, Amuro, and Sayla were reunited-and had to speak a different language.
The show is called Space Black Knight. It's a complete ripoff of Mobile Suit Gundam. According to "legend", it's a Korean made animation series made in the same era as Gundam. Instead of using mobile suits, elements from American cartoons are incorporated in the show…
But let's pretend that Space Black Knight never happened. For now, we'll cringe at seeing how the original cast of MSG did outside the show as if it were a wacky, predictable sitcom.
In Space Black Knight, Char gets to reprise his role, but uses black instead of red…
Sayla is in the show as well!
Kycillia has a cameo appearance as well, but with different color clothing as well. And she went blond.
Char takes off his mask. Wait a minute… Amuro?!
Here's a character that we've haven't seen before, maybe Katz's long lost cousin?
Another closeup of Amuro… stealing the spotlight from Cas–er, Char.
Bizarro Dozle. Was he that desperate he painted himself green with leftover Big Zam paint?
It seemed that whoever this character is was reserved for Bright, but he thought the role was too small. At least he avoids getting beaten up by Bizarro Dozle…
Dozle challenges Charmuro to a rematch. To save money, they decided to just do the fight with whiplashes instead of mobile suits.
Instead of importing Mobile Suit Gundam directly and localizing it for Korean audiences, they decided to create their own show from scratch using the same characters (read: bootleg). This was common during the 70's and 80's as the South Korean government banned imports of Japanese entertainment from entering the country (back when Japanese/Korean relations were tense). Thus creating this "copied" version, removing all the good stuff.
On the bright side, sales of the original Gundam series (in the correct country) encouraged more Gundam series to be made, so everybody got their jobs back, except for a few characters in ZZ Gundam.

Portrait of the Swiss born French journalist Jacques Mallet du Pan; half-length, wearing a jacket and cravat, seated left hand on a desk with papers, right arm with quill in hand poised to write, looking at the viewer. Lettered beneath the image "Painted by J. F. Rigaud, R.A." and "Engraved by Js. Heath Historical Engraver to his Majesty." / "Js. MALLET DU PAN." / "Born at Geneva 1749." with publication line "London, Published as the Act directs, Decr. 2. 1799, by J. F. Rigaud, R.A. No. 71, Great Titchfield Street."
Jacques Mallet du Pan was born in Switzerland to an old Huguenot family. He came to live in France as a writer and sided with the Royalists at the outbreak of the French Revolution. He was sent on a mission by Louis XVI to try and secure the intervention of the German princes on his behalf. As the Reign of Terror began in 1793 Mallet du Pan famously observed "A l'exemple de Saturne, la révolution dévore ses enfants" ("As per Saturn's example, the Revolution devours its own children"). He communicated with the British spy master William Wickham (1761–1840) and published a number of anti-revolutionary pamphlets from Bern. His criticism of the Directoire and of Bonaparte's conduct in Italy led to him being exiled as French troops entered Switzerland in 1797. The year before this print's publication, in 1798, he came to live in London where he founded the Mercure britannique. Already in poor health he died of consumption in Richmond upon Thames in 1800.
It was in his Mercure britannique that the first known use of the expression "Universal Suffrage" appeared and Mallet du Pan is now considered to have been a champion of democracy and one of the early pioneers of modern political journalism.
It is very interesting to note that his portrait has been made here by John Francis Rigaud, an artist also of Swiss-French Huguenot descent, who had been resident in London since 1771. The image was also published by Rigaud who, amonst other subjects, specialised in portraits of those of his notable contemporaries who he particularly sensed would be judged as important by posterity. Rigaud commissioned the hightly accomplished and much admired printmaker James Heath (1757-1834) to engrave the portrait to ensure it was done with exceptional skill and accuracy. Heath had been appointed as Historical Engraver to King George III, in 1794 and continued in that post under successive sovereigns until his death.

New Cuphead update announced for April 18 with more refinements, including reduced loading times
Cuphead is coming back to the spotlight in a major way today. Developer StudioMDHR first announced an upcoming Nintendo Switch which will get Xbox Live integration later on, and now we've just learned that the Xbox One and PC versions will get a free major update on April 18.
"As we've been hard at work on Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course, we've received so much love from all of our fans that we thought we'd drop one last free content update as just a little thank you," the co-founders of StudioMDHR wrote on Xbox Wire today. Here's everything the free April 18 update will include:
Mugman, Cuphead's sidekick will be playable in single-player mode.
StudioMDHR has created new art for the game with fully animated cut scenes, new special effects, and more.
Cuphead has been fully localised in 10 new languages: French, Italian, German, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Polish, Russian, Japanese, Korean, and Simplified Chinese.
StudioMDHR also did some optimizations to reduce loading times and shrink the game's size on Xbox One. Future patches should also be much smaller.
This won't be the last update for Cuphead as The Delicious Last Course will be released later this year as a paid DLC. The additional content will introduce a new playable character named Ms. Chalice's, new weapons, charms, and a brand new island to explore.
Cuphead launched in September 2017 as an Xbox console exclusive, with support for Xbox Play Anywhere on Windows 10. The game is also available on Mac through Steam and Gog, and it will now launch on Nintendo Switch on April 18.

The Academic Super Bowl Team is a great example of students working together to achieve academic success. These students, and the teachers who coach them, put in countless hours reviewing and studying materials in order to prepare themselves for interscholastic competitions. They compete in various challenges throughout the year including the Indiana Crossroads Conference Competition (ICC) and the Indiana State area competition.
Members of the 2014 Academic Superbowl Team are: (Row 1, L-R) Nate Smith, Samantha Smith, Caroline Sausser, Jenna Nosek, Corinne Maue; (Row 2) Sarah Elam, Luke Manley, Jacob Marshall, Zach Burck, Emily Coffey, Ada Qu; (Row 3) Mrs. Smith (moderator), Nick Sitzman, Josh Sitzman, Carrie Gao, Miss Williams (moderator), Miss Cuevas (moderator); (Not Pictured) Galen Monroe, Olivia Page, Bo Lesczynski, Mr. Sanders (moderator).
This year they have shown their capabilities and dedication by placing 3rd overall in the ICC ConferenceTournament, while taking 1st place at the Indiana State area competition in three categories- Science, Math, and English.
The preparation begins in October in order to get ready for the spring time competitions. Students work with a coach for each of the five subjects: English, Fine Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies. The groups meet once a week to review the materials that will be covered during the competitions. The five coaches help to advise students in their review, but the students are responsible for their own research and preparation. They work together as a team to understand any questions that may come up in competition.
During competitions, students work together to answer multiple choice questions that are read aloud to all of the teams. Students consult with one another to come up with the best possible answer, then the team scores are updated accordingly. Winners are recognized for each round, and then compared to scores from other areas to determine the qualifiers for the State Finals. Over the past few years, our team has fallen just outside of qualifying for state.
After another strong performance this year, there are high hopes for a successful 2014-2015 season! If you are interested in supporting and cheering on our Crusaders, be sure to make it out to one of the competitions next year!

When St. Paul Mayor Chris Coleman said on Dec. 1 he wasn't going to run for re-election, there were questions about whether he might set his sights on the Governor's Residence.
Turns out the answer to those questions was "Yes."
"From small towns to larger cities, we all want good paying jobs, a strong future for our children, a sustainable environment and safe communities for our families," he said in a news release. "Here in Minnesota, we understand this only comes from hard work, a commitment to fairness and a willingness to make bold decisions."
He also listed what he called his "guiding principles": That Minnesota is at its best when we work together, are true to ourselves, and understand nobody has to lose for people to win.
Coleman was first elected as St. Paul's mayor in 2005. He's now in his third term, which ends next year. In an email announcement, he said he filed his gubernatorial paperwork Tuesday.
He's the second person to announce a run for governor, which will be up for a vote on Nov. 6, 2018. Erin Murphy, a longtime DFL state representative, said in November she will run.
Both will be up to replace the current governor, DFLer Mark Dayton, who has said he isn't interested in coming back for a third term.
The race in Minnesota's 8th Congressional District was very tight in 2014.

Uber comes to Schoharie County
Uber is in Schoharie County.
Randy Bender started the travel service on June 29, the first day Uber was permitted to operate in Upstate New York.
Mr. Bender used to be a truck driver and became interested in Uber when the service was in the news.
Uber drivers use their own vehicles, and Mr. Bender's case, his is a Chevy Tahoe Z71.
"It's clean and it can carry seven people," Mr. Bender said.
Uber is an attractive option, he said, because it's usually cheaper than a taxi.
He believes he's the only Uber operator in the area.
Although most of Mr. Bender's rides have been local, "I'll take you any place you want to go," he said.
Contacting Mr. Bender is easy. You can download the Uber app or reach him on his phone, 419-5828.

Herbs and spices enhance a dish in a way that nothing else can. Spices add layers of flavour whilst herbs provide a freshness that lifts a dish to another level. The difference between a herb and a spice is the region of a plant where they are found. Herbs are the leaves of a plant (like basil or mint) whereas spices can be the root (ginger), the seeds (caraway) or the bark (cinnamon). Some species of plant can provide both herbs and spices like coriander from which we use both the leaves and the seeds. The powdered coriander you buy is made by grinding the seeds.
While herbs and spices are found mostly in savoury foods, there are several which are used in sweet dishes too. People are often afraid to use herbs in desserts which is understandable, herbs have relatively strong flavours and you wouldn't normally put leaves in a pudding but sometimes it just works. Basil pairs beautifully with white chocolate, peaches, strawberries and mango; mint pairs with dark chocolate; sage and thyme work wonderfully with citrus flavours; saffron gives an incredible yellow colour to a dish and of course, sweet tea flavoured dishes – especially matcha green tea with white chocolate – are very in at the moment. Spices, on the other hand, are used all the time in sweet treats without anyone batting an eyelid: chilli chocolate, gingerbread, cinnamon rolls and pfeffernüsse immediately come to mind. Of course we cannot leave out one of the most common spices used today, in fact this item is so common that it is never really considered a spice, cocoa. Chocolate comes from the seeds of a plant making it a spice!
One of my favourite spices is ginger. It has grown on me a lot over the past few years and now I love it. It's such a versatile flavouring, you can use it dried or fresh in dishes to give them a spicy kick without making them too hot or just use a little to pack a dish full of flavour. The ginger that we know and love is the root of the plant Zingiber Officinale. It is related to galangal (which it can be substituted for in recipes) as well as turmeric – a spice which provides a vibrant yellow colour at a more affordable price than saffron – and cardamom although we only eat the seeds of the cardamom flower. The zingy nature of ginger makes it a delicious flavour to pair with garlic and chilli. Many of my dinners at university were flavoured with some combination of these three, the proportions adjusted depending on how I was feeling at the time.
The recipe below has ginger as a dominant flavour and when mixed with the soy, honey and sesame oil, creates a sauce which is incredibly more-ish. This dish is amazing both hot and cold so can be whipped up for dinner and then the leftovers can be taken to work and eaten for lunch the next day.
Quick disclaimer: Whilst people get very worked up about reheated rice or eating it cold, they never seem to worry about it when eating sushi and other such dishes. Of course there is a chance that reheated rice can give you food poisoning, there is a chance that any type of food could give it to you. The main issue with rice is a bacterium which lives on the surface of dried rice and isn't killed by cooking – in fact, it's the cooling cooked rice that it feeds best on so the moment the rice is cold, place it into the fridge and you should be alright for a few days. I wouldn't advise keeping rice for more than two days but if you do, make sure you reheat the rice fully until it is steaming. I have never had a problem with rice but it never hurts to be careful.
Enjoy the recipe. This sauce can be used for chicken and beef too if you aren't a fan of tofu, just substitute them in when cooking and make sure to cook all the meat through properly.
Place the rice into a saucepan and rinse a few times by half filling the saucepan with water, swilling the rice around until the water turns cloudy and then draining it.
For one cup of rice, add one and a half cups of water to the pan (scale this up for more rice) and bring to the boil over a high heat. Turn the heat down and simmer the rice, covered for about 15-20 minutes.
Drain the tofu and place it between two boards. Press down on the top board and drain off any excess liquid that comes out of the tofu.
Cut the tofu into small cubes, I tend to do one horizontal cut through the block and then several along each edge giving me around 40 small pieces.
Heat two tablespoons of the oil in a large, non-stick frying pan. It is important to use a non-stick pan as tofu can be a real pain to cook in stainless-steel.
Add the tofu to the oil and leave to fry – I like to add salt and pepper to the tofu while it is frying to season it.
While the tofu is cooking, grate the garlic and the ginger into a small bowl.
Stir the honey, soy sauce and one tablespoon of the sesame oil into the ginger and garlic mix.
Once the tofu turns golden on the base and starts to go crispy, turn it over and cook the other side. It will take about five minutes per side to start going crispy.
While the second side is cooking, finely slice the onion into half moons. Thinly slice the carrots into two inch long thin strips. A julienne peeler is ideal for this.
Once the top and bottom of the tofu are crispy, add the sauce mix along with one quarter of a cup (60ml) of water. Be careful as it will spit when you add it to the pan.
Allow the mix to bubble for a minute to cook the garlic and ginger before pouring in the cornflour slurry and stirring to coat the tofu.
Pour the tofu into a dish and use a spatula to scrape out as much of the sauce as possible.
Add the remaining vegetable and sesame oil to the frying pan and heat.
Tip in the onion, carrot and edamame beans and fry until the beans are cooked. This will ensure that the onion and carrot still have a little crunch.
I like to add a tablespoon of chilli oil at this point to give the vegetables a little kick.
When the rice is cooked, drain off any water that may be left, place a lid onto the saucepan and allow to steam for a minute to make sure the rice is dry.
Stir together the sushi vinegar, salt and sugar. It may be necessary to heat this in the microwave for ten seconds or so to help everything dissolve.
Pour the seasoning over the rice and gently stir it through.
This can be eaten hot or allowed to cool and then taken for lunches at work or on the go. The seasoned rice will keep in the fridge for a few days (long enough to eat it all safely) and the tofu and veg will also keep in airtight containers. Cold tofu tends to have a slightly firmer texture than warm tofu; personally I prefer the former.
All packed up in a lunch box and ready to go.
I hope you enjoyed the recipe. If you like tofu, check out my delicious tofu curry – the tricks in it can be applied to any curry to make them vegetarian/vegan or if you would like something a little bit sweeter, check out how to make some delicious, crumbly shortbread.
Have a good one and I will see you next week with a recipe for an annual favourite – the honey cake.
Tofu is not known for its wonderful flavour. Or texture. Or visual appeal. In fact, most people's first reaction to the word is some sort of grimace. This probably stems from the fact that, in England, one of the more available forms of tofu is 'silken tofu'. This has a very gelatinous texture and is incredibly fragile, in fact I have found it almost impossible to cook silken tofu without it all falling apart and becoming some sort of mush – though this is probably just me. Silken tofu is created by curdling soy milk but the liquid is curdled inside the carton in which it proceeds to be sold, whereas standard firm tofu is curdled and then the liquid is strained off before the curds are pressed into a block.
With records dating back to the Chinese Han dynasty, tofu has been around for about 2000 years. One of the leading theories is that it used to be made by curdling soy milk using sea water – the impurities in the water acted as the coagulants needed – and some forms of tofu are still produced like this today. The production of tofu spread around eastern Asia and it became a popular meat substitute as it is far cheaper.
There are several different types of tofu ranging from extra-soft to extra-firm. Extra-soft tofu has so much liquid in it that it barely holds its own shape – think of the texture of ricotta cheese. The next firmness is standard silken tofu. This tends to be used in desserts and sauces or smoothies as it can be used as a substitute for dairy and eggs. When blended into sauces or smoothies, it gives them a very creamy texture.
For tofu to be firmer than silken tofu, it must be pressed during production. This involves straining out the soy bean curds and then squeezing them to remove as much liquid as possible. The tofu produced from this has a much harder texture and tends to be what I use for cooking. You can press it at home to drive off even more of the liquid by wrapping the block in a tea towel and placing a heavy object on top – I tend to use either a pan or an encyclopaedia. The tofu can then be cooked in a variety of ways to give it the texture you want. Extra-firm tofu is incredibly dry. It is a little rubbery and is firm enough to be sliced very thinly without the pieces breaking. It is sometimes shredded and used instead of noodles in dishes.
Standard tofu is bland. It has basically no flavour whatsoever. This makes it perfect for absorbing flavours from other things so you can always marinade tofu in soy sauce or flavoured oils after it has been pressed to give it some taste. When I bake tofu before adding it to curries and such, I like to add some salt, pepper and sometimes a little curry powder before I put it in the oven as that way it will have a natural taste. The other way to avoid this lack of flavour is continuing to cook your curry for five or so minutes after the tofu has been added as it gives a chance for the moisture from the curry to soften the tofu a little bit and also infuse the flavours of the sauce into it.
Nowadays tofu is only really used as a meat substitute Europe and America. In eastern Asia, it tends to be viewed as just another ingredient and is often used alongside meats or seafood in dishes. A lot of people, especially in England, are not exposed to well cooked tofu when they are younger resulting in the reactions I mentioned at the beginning. With proper seasoning and cooking and, most importantly, the correct type of tofu, I believe most people would appreciate it far more and use tofu when cooking on a more regular basis.
Preheat the oven to gas mark 6 (200 C).
Drain the tofu and if you have time, press it (this step is optional).
Cut the tofu up into small cubes, I tend to do one horizontal slice through it and then cut it to make cubes which are around a centimetre a centimetre and a half long. The tofu will shrink in the oven.
Line a tray with baking parchment or a silicone mat and spread the tofu out on it.
Drizzle over a little oil or if you use a cooking spray, a couple of sprays of that will also work well.
Season with a little salt and pepper and place in the oven for 40 minutes remembering to turn the tofu every 10 minutes.
After the tofu has been cooking for 20 minutes you can start on the curry.
Chop the onion into wedges (I tend to go for eight of them).
Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large pan or wok and add the onion.
Once the onion starts going translucent, add the stock, garlic and spices.
Simmer for 15 minutes while the tofu finishes off in the oven.
very thin, add some more corn flour but if the sauce has become too thick, add some more stock.
Take the tofu out of the oven and pour it into the curry and stir through.
Let the curry simmer for another two minutes to so the tofu can absorb some of the flavour and then serve with sticky rice.
This curry keeps very well so if you are only cooking for yourself, you will have leftovers to eat the next day too. I like to use medium curry powder but if you like a spicy or particularly mild curry, there are different versions available. You can also eat this curry with noodles or bread.
A way to make the curry even cheaper on a budget is just don't use the tofu! This will also drastically reduce the cooking time and you can replace it with whatever you want. Cubes of carrot work well and you can always throw in water chestnuts and bamboo shoots at the end too to bulk it out. Obviously you can also use meat too but make sure to sear it in the wok before you add the onions and the stock to it.
I hope you enjoyed the recipe. For another easy meal, check out my One Pot Pasta or if you are looking to do something a little more flamboyant, why not make yourself a Chocolate and Caramel Cake filled with lashings of cream and delicious caramel.
Have a good one and I will be back next week with a recipe for a yummy shortcrust tart.
From curry, to sushi, to risotto, rice is used around the world. It is one of the most versatile carbohydrates and this has led to its use in a myriad of dishes. The various varieties of rice display drastically different characteristics when cooked so there is a type of rice for almost any of your culinary desires!
Risottos are usually made with a medium grain rice where the grains are only just over double as long as they are wide. When cooked properly on a hob or steamed, medium grain rice comes out very soft and fluffy and the cooked grains stick together so can be moulded. If the rice is not washed beforehand, the starch in it comes out during cooking and makes the water cloudy (or in the case of risotto, makes the final meal ultra creamy). I find that Arborio is the easiest variety of risotto rice to get hold of however, any medium or medium/short grain rice will normally work for making a risotto. Medium grain rice can also be used when making sushi as the grains clump making the sushi stick together.
Short grain rice is normally used in rice pudding and paella. The grains are so short that they are almost as long as they are wide (whereas long grain rice is almost five times as long as it is wide). The starchiness of short grain rice is what gives dishes their creaminess. Long grain rice is far less starchy than its shorter grained counterparts and the grains do not clump when cooking. As a result, it can be boiled easily and then just drained and served.
Rice is becoming more and more popular as large numbers of people are trying to avoid gluten. This has led to the more unusual types of rice becoming increasingly available. These include wild rices and Chinese black rice. Most 'wild' rice is actually cultivated but it is still possible to find speciality shops that will sell genuine wild rice. Brown rice is very popular at the moment as it undergoes less processing than white rice. It has a nuttier flavour and a slightly different texture however there are concerns about it as the rice bran (which gives the rice its colour) contains arsenic leading to some countries having regulations controlling the types of brown rice sold!
Risotto is a rather labour-intensive dish. It requires constant stirring (though I have found that it can be left for 30 seconds or so) to prevent it catching on the bottom of the pan and parts being overcooked while others are raw. It has a wonderful creamy texture which can be achieved without using any dairy at all so is perfect for those with lactose intolerance.
It is however delicious and is bound to wow anyone you cook it for – even yourself. The versatility of risotto is astounding. You can flavour it with almost anything. I usually use mushrooms and sometimes chicken though I have also made it with smoked salmon which surprisingly, works incredibly well!
Chop the mushrooms to your desired size – I tend to quarter them unless they are particularly big or small.
Add them to a large pan with half of the oil and a third of a cup of water (80ml) which will help stop them burning. Place over a medium heat for around 15 minutes.
Chop up the garlic and add the mushrooms after about 5 minutes.
While the mushrooms are cooking finely dice the onion and add it to another pan with the remaining oil.
Cook the onions until they are translucent – at this point they will start to get a bit sticky and come together while you stir them.
Add the rice to the pan with the onion and stir through.
Add the mushroom liquid and cook on a medium heat until it has all been absorbed by the rice. Make sure you keep stirring.
The grains are still very small and uncooked. All the liquid that has been added so far will be absorbed!
Add half the stock and keep cooking the risotto.
Once that has been absorbed slowly add the rest of the stock stirring after each addition.
If the rice still isn't soft, just keep adding more water a bit a time and waiting for it to be absorbed until the rice is cooked.
Add the grated cheese and stir through.
For a super creamy risotto, you can add a small amount of double cream and stir it through at this point.
Add the mushrooms and return to the heat continuing to stir until the mushrooms are fully heated again.
Let me know if you try this at home, I love seeing things you guys cook. Give me a tag on Instagram @thatcookingthing. If you fancy treating yourself, why not try having a three course meal of risotto, beef lasagne and millionaire's shortbread for dessert!
Have a good one and I'll see you next week with a recipe for my orange and chocolate bread and butter pudding. It's super creamy and perfect for a long winter night in!

The Chair of Child Health, deemed to be the origin of Hacettepe Faculty of Medicine, was founded as part of the Faculty of Medicine, Ankara University by Prof. Dr. İhsan Doğramacı on February 2, 1954.
The foundation stone of the university was laid in 1957 with the Child Health Institute and Hospital within Hacettepe, which began its training, education and research activities and public services in 1958.
The Nursing School, School of Medical Technology and School of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation were established in 1961. The School of Health Sciences offering education in the fields of Nutrition and Dietetics was founded in 1962. It later took the name of the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences in 1963. The School of Basic Sciences, Nursing School, School of Medical Technology, School of Physiotherapy-Rehabilitation, and the School of Physical Therapy were all re-structured under the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences. Meanwhile, the School of Dentistry was established under the same faculty. Hacettepe Science Center was established in 1965 in order to enable the coordination between the academic units within the university. Hacettepe Medical Center was established in 1966. Hacettepe Medical Center Hospital was founded in the same year.
These nucleus institutions were later chartered as Hacettepe University by Law No. 892, enacted on July 8, 1967, which began educational activities in the Faculties of Medicine, Health Sciences, Sciences and Social Sciences. The School of Home Economics was established in 1968, and the Schools of Pharmacy and Dentistry were transformed into faculties in 1971. Hacettepe University, which was further expanded in the course of time with the establishment of new departments and faculties, built its second campus on an area of 1.500 ha. in Beytepe District, 20 kms. away from the Central Campus.

Preeclampsia is a life-threatening medical condition that complicates about 5% of the pregnancies in the United States. Onset of this disease commonly occurs after 32 weeks gestation but can occur late in the second trimester, and is one of the most common causes of premature birth.
The presentation of this condition varies widely, and can be either mild or severe. The most common symptom is a dangerous rise in blood pressure. Many women will develop sudden swelling in the hands, face, and lower extremities, and unrelenting headaches. Some will develop renal or liver impairment leading to spilling more protein in their urine, a decrease in urine output, elevation of liver enzymes and a decrease in platelets which impair the blood's ability to clot. Rarely, this may lead to a seizure and increase maternal and fetal mortality. This disease may even occur up to 6 weeks after delivery.
What is incredible about preeclampsia is it can occur with only one or two subtle signs or symptoms, and quickly progress without much warning. Sometimes hospitalization is warranted, keeping the patient on bed rest and keeping mom and baby under close surveillance. The only cure for preeclampsia is delivery of the baby, after which preeclampsia most commonly goes away in a few days after the birth.
Physicians have to weigh the severity of the disease, and the risk to the mother by delaying delivery, against the risk to the baby if delivered prematurely. At times we are walking a fine line to get a healthy mom and baby through this disease. Good communication between all healthcare professionals and the patient is crucial in maximizing good outcomes.
One of the discussions that should occur when caring for a mother with any high risk scenario like preeclampsia is making an informed decision about her umbilical cord blood. The more preterm an infant is at the time of delivery, the higher the incidence is of that child being born with Cerebral Palsy (CP). CP is a debilitating neurodevelopmental condition that affects the child and family forever. However, an exciting regenerative medicine trial ongoing at Duke University, lead by Dr. Joanne Kurtzberg, is showing incredible promise. The trial gives children with CP their own umbilical cord blood saved from delivery.
When collecting cord blood from a premature delivery, it is crucial for physicians to maximize the amount of blood collected, since preterm babies especially have smaller volumes of cord blood and hence less stem cells. Unfortunately, these lower numbers make the collection unsuitable for public donation.
To insure the best care for a mother with preeclampsia, we must minimize risk and maximize benefit of both mom and baby, not only in utero, but after delivery as well.
Gina M. Dado, MD, went to medical school at Loyola Stritch School of Medicine and continued to do her residency there as well. She has been in obstetrics practice for almost 16 years. She is married to her college sweetheart Robert Dudek, MD, an anesthesiologist, and they have two daughters, ages 11 and 13. With her first pregnancy, Dr. Dado experienced preeclampsia and had her daughter 3 weeks early, on Christmas Eve. Therefore, she understands this disease uniquely from both a doctor's and a patient's perspective. She has been an active umbilical cord blood educator for the past 6 years, speaking to healthcare professionals and patients around the U.S.
