A cultural free zone for Al Quoz
Analysis, Policy
Dubai Culture has announced the implementation of the first phase of a large redevelopment plan for Al Quoz that formalises the Alserkal Avenue area as the centre of a new creative free zone "to attract both regional and international audiences to the area and encourage designers, artists and creative persons to live, work and exhibit there".
This is the first visible step towards the 'new vision for Dubai's culture' announced at the start of October. At the time Sheikh Mohammed declared: "Cultural initiatives and projects must involve the participation of the entire community. The cultural vibrancy of a place is a key indicator of its development. We must highlight and showcase our rich culture and heritage to the world".
The commercial value of this is evident. He went on to say "over the next few years, I can clearly see the UAE becoming the region's biggest cultural hub and one of the world's most preferred destinations".
Free zone: coming soon
The planned projects and initiatives – listed below – are short on detail; and though the press release for the new Al Quoz Creative Free Zone runs to a several hundred words, it too leaves many questions unanswered.
The basic news is that part of Al Quoz will be transformed into a free zone for creative talent in the culture sector, providing "comprehensive facilities and services from the conception stage through to design and production … The free zone will create an end-to-end system for creatives to produce, display and sell their works ".
Dubai Culture is the project leader, with other key strategic partners including Brand Dubai, the creative arm of the Government of Dubai Media Office; Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing; Dubai Municipality; and RTA.
The first phase of the project involves a physical upgrade. RTA's DG Mattar Al Tayer noted the biggest challenge of the project was to change the industrial profile of the area. "The RTA will collaborate with Dubai Culture to support the project by enhancing the right-of-way of the locality with artistic touches, easing the mobility of people and vehicles, and maintaining traffic safety."
Brand Dubai will do its bit with a range of public art projects and "a digital campaign to highlight the artists, creative persons and entrepreneurs who have shaped the unique cultural character of Al Quoz". The new creative zone will also get into Brand Dubai's 'Proudly from Dubai' programme to support homegrown businesses in Al Quoz.
What's missing of course is anything that smacks of an actual free zone – like light-touch regulation and special taxation and incorporation arrangements. The other essential is an easy-to-get freelance-style visa, and plans for a 'Cultural Residence Visa' are indeed included in the 'vision for Dubai's culture' announced in October. It doesn't sound like it would necessarily be tied to operation within the Al Quoz free zone, which is a good thing if it is to attract artists and creatives to the city.
The Cultural Residence Visa, which would be the world's first long-term cultural visa, shouldn't be too difficult to implement. The cost and what you have to do to qualify for one could impact the view of Dubai as a global incubator for talent, though.
Dubai's new cultural vision
At the launch of the 'new vision for Dubai's culture', Sheikh Mohammed expressed his confidence in the ability of the Dubai Culture team to transform the emirate's cultural landscape. The new vision includes several initiatives for them to get stuck into; the Al Quoz development is probably the largest and most complex, but there are some other quick wins that will raise the emirate's cultural profile quite easily.
Hatta Cultural Carnival: This sounds like fun, though maybe it's borrowing from the kind of out-of-town heritage-oriented festivals that Abu Dhabi does so well. It's a cultural bash to be held in the winter with "poetry evenings, cultural events, art exhibitions and other events".
Dubai Festival of National Cultures: A showcase for the traditions, food and "special products" of the various nationalities living in Dubai. We don't know whether it will be a single big-deal event (30 nationalities in the DWTC?) or a series of smaller single-nationality events – the press release talks about "an annual calendar of events", which will inevitably be less spectacular.
Al Marmoum CineMania: An open-air international film festival in the Al Marmoum area "to be organised in co-operation with local cinemas". There's not much in Al Marmoum at the moment, except for camel racing and the cycle track, but it does appear to be earmarked for development.
Dubai Global Grad Show: Another fairly easy win – an addition to Dubai Design Week that "aims to inspire university graduates to find innovative solutions to community problems". We're not clear whether this is a replacement for or a supplement to the existing Global Grad Show; it could just be a renaming job.
Dubai Private Collections Season: Now this is an interesting one – the Private Collections Season will enable private individuals to display their personal art collections in public institutions such as Etihad Museum. That should provide interesting insights into the personal tastes of the lenders and their relative power in the art market … The season will kick off with an exhibition of works from Sheikh Mohammed's own collection
Art for Good: A new annual art week with philanthropic intentions. Apparently it will include charity auctions, art performances and "plastic arts exhibitions".
Dubai Global Literary Season: A programme that aims to establish the city as "the capital of knowledge development". There will be "more than 1,000 literary events hosting the top 100 Arab and international authors and publishers". Could be a book fair, could be an extended programme built around the existing LitFest.
A Destination for Land Art: This one is also short on detail, not least concerning exactly where it will be sited, though we're told that it will include "new landmarks to document Dubai's hosting of Expo 2020" and "many different nationalities will contribute to its construction". It sounds like a kind of sculpture park for 2D work.
Dubai's Iconic Architecture: This could be a much needed aesthetic control on development in the city – it's described as "a specialised committee to oversee the adoption of architectural designs that has the objective of making Dubai a destination for architectural innovation'. Again, that shouldn't be too difficult to set up.
Dubai's Architectural Identity: This one sounds like it goes hand in hand with the previous project. It's "an initiative aimed at conceptualising, designing and implementing a distinctive architectural identity for Dubai that distinguishes it from other major cities of the world". Good luck with that …
Zabeel High School: A rehabilitation of the old Zabeel Secondary School for Girls that preserves its architecture and repurposes the building as a multi-functional arts centre for young people.
Other intiatives
Dubai Gold Line: We have no idea what exactly this is. The press release talks about "a competition to design the Dubai Gold Line, a special gold production line that establishes Dubai as a destination for gold".
Discovering Hidden Cultural Gems with Uber: A new initiative created in partnership with Uber to help tourists easily find and visit Dubai's cultural treasures. That shouldn't be difficult to implement – basically it means giving Uber drivers a map with cultural sites highlighted, though presumably there will be a routing app for customers too.
Dubai Art Collection: "The first integrated system created to help art enthusiasts buy, display and exchange artwork". Again, there are no details; but we think it might have something to do with the ArtBank initiative floated by Dubai Culture at Art Dubai 2018. ArtBank is a blockchain-powered digital 'bank' for art that uses a digital currency (probably its own) for trading in artworks. Bitcoin and other virtual currencies are already being used alongside real world money to buy and sell art, but ArtBank would the first end-to-end platform of its kind in the world.
School of Life: Dubai's public libraries will be expanded into "integrated cultural centres". The School of Life theme suggests experiences and information that add to the existing knowledge and skills of the population, but we might be reading too much into that. Anything that gets more people into more libraries is A Good Thing, of course.

Today is the first of December, which means Christmas is only 24 days away, some much-needed R&R is right around the corner, and it's World AIDS Day — the latter of which M.A.C. and singer/songwriter Sia are here to make sure you don't forget.
The cosmetics giant and musical wunderkind most famous for top hits "Cheap Thrills" and "Chandelier" teamed up for a very special collab, which features just one stand-alone product: a M.A.C. x Viva Glam lipstick, which will be available early next year.
The singer's team took to her official Instagram page to announce the collection, writing, "Sia will be working with @MACCosmetics for their #VIVAGLAM campaign and releasing her very own lipstick (which will be available in early January)." Even better? Every single cent of proceeds earned from the true red lipstick will go to the M.A.C. Aids Fund, which, in turn, goes directly to those affected by HIV and AIDS.
The lipstick will be widely available both online at maccosmetics.com and in stores on January 25, but that doesn't mean you can't support the cause today by donating to the M.A.C. Aids Fund on its website. Shout-out to Sia and M.A.C. for teaming up for an all-star collab and bringing, even more, visibility to an extraordinarily worthy cause.

Buy Affordable Remanufactured Jeep Grand Cherokee Engines for Less
By Brian Hanson | April 16, 2011 | 0
American Motors (AMC) stumbled on a winner when they introduced the Cherokee in 1983. AMC was a player in the Detroit car scene, but it had a hard time matching sales with the big three. In 1987 Chrysler bought AMC and the designs for a new Cherokee model.
Buy Affordable Remanufactured Jeep Grand Cherokee Engines for Less at Remanufacturedenginesforsale.com, fast, easy service.
Chrysler sat on those plans since President Iacocca was pushing minivans at the time. While Chrysler was enjoying success selling minivans, Ford was pounding them over the head with big-time SUV sales. The 1991 Ford Explorer was an instant hit. It solidified Ford's dominance in the truck industry. Feeling the pressure, Chrysler introduced the Grand Jeep Cherokee in 1993. The Monocoque body of the Grand Cherokee gave the Ranger remake a run for its money since the Explorer was a body-on-frame construction.
The 1993 Grand Cherokee offered consumers off-road capabilities and smooth highway ride thanks to its 4.0 litre 190 horsepower inline six engine. The Grand Cherokee's inline six matched its competitor's engine size, but the Cherokee needed more to tap into the growing SUV market. Late in 1993 Chrysler introduced the 5.2 litre with 220 horsepower, and that engine was a game changer. Grand Cherokee owners had bragging rights on the golf course since their SUV had a towing capacity of 6,500 lbs.
Chrysler sweetened the deal by offering three 4-wheel drive systems. The base and the Laredo package came with the Command-Trac, which was a part-time 4-wheel drive system. The Laredo package also had the Selec-Trac option, which could be used on dry roads. That meant that the vehicle could be left in 4-wheel drive all the time.
The third option was the Quadra-Trac; a full time 4-wheel drive system.
In 1995, the Grand Cherokee V8 engine got some additional torque, and the 1996 V6 engine received a torque boost as well. In 1998 the new
V8 engine made its debut with 245 horsepower and 345 ft-lbs of torque. This Grand Cherokee update could hit 0 to 60 in 7.3 seconds, which made it the fastest SUV around.
Chrysler continued to upgrade engine choices. In 1999, a new OHC 4.7 with 265 horses and 325 ft-lbs of torque was introduced. It replaced the old push rod 5.2 motor V8, plus the basic 4.0 litre straight six was modified with ten more horsepower that same year.
We sell Grand Cherokee engines. Call or email Remanufacturedenginesforsale.com now for more information.

Q: Is it possible to escape whitespaces from the filename/path string, using -F cURL for Android I'm trying to run the following cURL/Android command:
-i -F uploadedfile=@/storage/emulated/0/Pictures/Corre y Se Va/IMG_20170719_223837_2031783171.jpg http://www.runonetworks.com/correyseva/upload_attachment.php?CODE=E49AC1D0

However, I'm getting this output:

curl: (26) couldn't open file "/storage/emulated/0/Pictures/Corre"

So It looks white spaces are causing trouble with my file path.
I've tried to replace white spaces with "/ " (Without quotes)
Also tried to have the whole string inside quotes ("@/storage...")
I can't seem to find a way to escape the whitespace character.
Does anyone know how?

A: I just had a look at the cURL man-page, found here: https://curl.haxx.se/docs/manpage.html#-F
Have you tried -i -F 'uploadedfile=@/storage/emulated/0/Pictures/Corre y Se Va/IMG_20170719_223837_2031783171.jpg' http://www.runonetworks.com/correyseva/upload_attachment.php?CODE=E49AC1D0?  I've just wrapped the -F value in single quotes.

A: You,Should migrate path which incluide whitespace with '_' underscore in real path.then use underscored instead of white spaces.

Q: Convert List base object to Json string in C# Currently I try to convert List object to Json string, this drive me crazy on my ASP.net MVC project.
Model:
public class PagerBase<T>:List<T> where T:EntityBase
{
    public int totalpage {get;set;}
    public int pageindex {get;set;}
    public int pagesize  {get;set;}

    public PagerBase(IEnumerable<T> source, int totalpage , int pageindex ,int pagesize)
    {
        this.totalpage = totalpage ;
        this.pageindex = pageindex;
        this.pagesize = pagesize;
        this.AddRange(source);
    }
}

My Action like this
public JsonResult GetClient()
{
    int pagesize=20;
    int pageindex1;

    var providers = getclient(20,1);
    var totalpage= gettotalpage(20);

    var pagerclient=new PagerBase<Client>(providers,totalpage,pageindex,pagesize);
    JavaScriptSerializer serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();

    var jsonstring=serializer.Serialize(pagerclient);
    JsonResult jr = Json(new
    {
        Html = jsonstring,
        Message = "Ok"
    }, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);

    return jr;
}

I want result at least include totalpage, pagesize, pageindex but actually I got empty string if there is no client.

A: JSON can't encode data that both has properties and is an array. I'm sure you could write a custom serializer if you use Json.NET, but if possible, it'd be easier to just refactor your class a bit:
public class PagerBase<T> where T:EntityBase
{
    public List<T> items {get;set;}
    public int totalpage {get;set;}
    public int pageindex {get;set;}
    public int pagesize  {get;set;}

    public PagerBase(IEnumerable<T> source, int totalpage, int pageindex, int pagesize)
    {
        this.items = source.ToList();
        this.totalpage = totalpage;
        this.pageindex = pageindex;
        this.pagesize = pagesize;
    }
}

As an aside, I'd recommend you switch to Json.NET. It's much better than JavaScriptSerializer.


What is your training in the health or medical science field?
I left school thinking I wanted to be a doctor, so began working in the pathologies of hospitals because I couldn't wait to be around patients. A few years in, I realised I had changed from being idealistic about caring for people to being robotically efficient at work. So I decided I needed a gap year or two to try other things, and in this time I worked in almost every industry and had about 30 different roles (had lots of fun on the side too!). But I realised I didn't want to be away from healthcare-related sciences, and eventually decided if I loved science then I should just do science and not worry about getting a job afterwards. Fast-forward and I completed by BSci (Adv Sci), did an honours thesis on cancer drug discovery, then a Master of Research thesis in bioinformatics and neurodegeneration. During this time, I became more curious about how scientific discoveries were translated into real-world settings on a larger scale, why most research papers are read only by seven people, or why most of medicine isn't actually 'evidence-based'. So now, for my PhD, I am working on understanding the translation of complex technologies into complex systems like healthcare, for example genomics. I want to understand the complexity of technologies that go beyond the clinical setting, the types of evidence required for large-scale implementation, and how we can monitor the evolution of the interaction of new technologies entering human systems.
Tell us about your current role and how you got to be there?
I am currently at Macquarie University where I wear about four different hats. Foremost, I am a Pre-Doctoral Research Fellow and a Research Assistant at the Australian Institute of Health Innovation (AIHI). I'm also the Director of Macquarie University TEDx, and Founder/Manager of a researcher development program called Future STEMM Leaders. I've gotten to these roles because I create opportunities for myself in areas that I am passionate about, not waiting around for things to just happen to me. This is something I've picked up being a long-term Franklin Women member. The women in this group have taught me to have this audacity to full-heartedly believe in myself. And the support of the women from the network has also impacted my career changes – I literally consulted with Melina before I changed disciplines, haha!
What is one of your favourite projects you are currently working on?
Ahh, so hard to pick, I love all my four projects! So maybe I will pick the one I believe has been most transformative thus far – designing my PhD research project from scratch in a completely new discipline has been a rich personal and intellectual journey. This required me to transform everything from my research philosophy to the types of data I value as a 'scientist'. I have had this freedom of truly understanding the type of research I want to conduct, then designing a project that fits into these newly formed foundations. I am in a really good space and I love what I do – it's such a great feeling to be excited on a Monday morning (yes, I am one of those annoying people now!).
What are some of the major 'outputs' of your work?
My favourite recent output was presenting my PhD study design at an international conference with 600 delegates from over 30 countries at the Global Evidence and Implementation Science Summit late last year. The reason why this was major is because I had been in Implementation Science for 10 months and had designed an implementation study going against most of what the discipline prescribes (I obviously like to make things hard for myself). First, I thought how did I get a talk?! No other PhD project had a full-length talk in a session with decade-experienced researchers and practitioners. I was sure they just wanted to teach me a lesson! When it came time to get up and talk, I was suddenly so calm and happy to share my work. My ideas were so well received – had great discussions about the gap I had highlighted and made new important collaborations. A person got up to the microphone to tell me it was the best session of the conference for them. Eeek!
How do you think your work contributes to the field and/or the overall health of the community?
Everyone expects innovation when it comes to healthcare. However, when scientists and doctors make discoveries in the labs and clinical studies, there is no magic implementation fairy that puts the new discovery into practice. I am investigating this gap on a systems level. For example, currently we are generating different types of evidence for the clinical usefulness of genomics testing – testing the entire DNA of a person as part of their care. For areas of medicine where we do generate evidence, how are we going to make this technology available in a sustainable and ethical manner while reducing risk of harm? How can this be done on a health system scale? How can we monitor change and uptake? So, you can see my work is entrenched with the work of many within the health and medicine community – it brings different siloed parts of the system together to provide a holistic picture to aid decision-makers on new discoveries entering the health system.
Do you have any side interests or passions that you are looking to develop?
If you asked me 'what are you?', I would say I am a feminist. If I could put 'feminist' as an occupation on my passport I would because it really is a full-time commitment. My commitment to the equality and equity of women is immovable and I prioritise it daily. My feminist sidekick is my dog and fur-baby Lulu, who has been seen around town in her Wonder Woman outfit. To keep sane and keep my anxiety at bay, I do yoga and I am a huge fan of mindfulness which is changing evidence-based modern psychology! I also love to cook, and if I won the lotto, I would adopt 100 dogs!
If you find a day in my life where I haven't drunk tea, then I'm obviously dead because I drink tea every day. Not that you could eat too much of it but I do love wontons and dumplings, and always have about six different cheeses in the fridge!

ELANO struck his fourth goal of the season to book Manchester City's ticket into the group stage.
However, it wasn't enough to put a smile on the face of manager Mark Hughes.
Even when Shaun Wright-Phillips drove home City's second goal – and his fourth overall – after two lucky rebounds, Sparky was reluctant to celebrate.
And his mood wouldn't have been improved 12 minutes from time when substitute Rasheed Alabi beat Tal Ben Haim to a near-post corner to head home a consolation for battling Omonia Nicosia.
Earlier, Elano had arrowed in a first-time shot from Robinho's low cross to signal the end of 48 minutes of City discomfort.
Hughes had urged his players to put the tie "to bed early" – but City, far from imposing themselves on Nicosia, struggled to make any impression.
The visitors may be unbeaten league leaders in Cyprus, but they shouldn't be a problem to a top 10 Premier League team.
Yet, with the exception of Stephen Ireland and Wright-Phillips, City's creative players made hard work of their task.
Antonis Georgallides must have been pinching himself when he glanced up at the clock on the half-hour, for he hadn't had a save to make.
Not if you discount Micah Richards' early header from Elano's cross, with the defender steering his effort straight at the keeper.
When Kstas Kaifas slid in studs up on Vincent Kompany, City were left in no doubt that Nicosia hadn't come here simply to make up the numbers.
Hughes was soon on his feet, pacing the technical area in frustration and urging his players to get a grip.
They might well have done so when Ireland sparked a superb cross-field move, slipping past two opponents before passing to Jo. The big Brazilian back-heeled to Wright-Phillips, who swept the ball out left to Robinho, but he was wasteful.
Robinho glided outside his man and then shot across the face of goal as Ireland waited in vain at the far post.
The Brazilian had no more luck when shooting from outside the box, with the ball whistling a yard over the top.
However, the biggest stir was caused by a City fan, who leaped the barrier behind the Nicosia goal and, pursued by three stewards, ran across the box. He then dropped his trousers as he reached the touchline, only to lose his footing, sliding bare-bottomed across the running track.
Probably the only man who didn't see the funny side was Hughes, who must have felt like smacking a few bottoms.
City's fans, with just over 25,000 in attendance, expected better than this, especially after defeats at Brighton and Wigan.
Finally, after 48 minutes, the supporters got something to cheer. The goal was pure quality, but the stony expression on Hughes' face was a reflection of what had gone before.

Add to this the ever-present issues of child poverty, homelessness, a broken mental health system, a welfare system that is struggling to cope and an aging population and our current funding model is not working.
Surprisingly, the first Labour Government, in 1936 faced fiscal challengers worse than what we have now. Back then, by enabling the Reserve Bank to create credit (money) for infrastructure projects they were able to fund the construction of thousands of houses, invigorate our economy and within two years set the foundation for our welfare state that became the envy of the world.
We believe that the current Labour Led Government should do the same but they are receiving poor advice and are struggling to come up with solutions. We will therefore be using the Governments own petition platform which will ensure that the petition goes before a select committee. This will us with a good platform to get our message across.
Using the government platform, we were limited in the number of words we could have in the petition request and our petition reason. That said we believe our request and reason comes across well.
That the House of Representatives inquire into giving the Reserve Bank of New Zealand the sole ability to issue all New Zealand money, whether notes, coins or electronic.
Private banks create 98% of our money. They pump too much money into housing, creating huge profits for themselves but skyrocketing house prices, inequality and poverty for ordinary kiwis. NZ successfully used Reserve Bank credit in 1936 to build thousands of state houses and we can do it again.
Our petition will be both electronic and paper based and the Office of the Clerk has provided us with text that is acceptable to us. They will let us know when the petition will be published on the Parliament Website. It will then be open for signatures.
We will let our supporters know and issue a press release followed with a communication plan to maximise the impact of the petition. We will be asking you to sign the petition and to point as many people as possible towards the link.
We believe that the petition will be a great way of getting our message across to the public as well as putting it in front of Government.

Q: No entiendo como llevar a cabo este ejercicio Una pizzería, vende sus pizzas en tres tamaños:
pequeña (10 pulg. De diámetro); mediana (12 pulg. De diámetro); y grandes (16 pulg. De diámetro); Una pizza puede ser sencilla (con sólo salsa y carne), o con ingredientes extras, tales como pepinillos, champiñones o cebollas. Los propietarios desean desarrollar un programa que calcule el precio de venta de una pizza, dándole el tamaño y el número de ingredientes extras. El precio de venta será 1.5 veces el costo total, que viene determinado por el área de la pizza, más el número de ingredientes. En particular el costo total se calcula sumando:

*

*un costo fijo de preparación

*un costo base variable que es proporcional al tamaño de la pizza

*un costo adicional por cada ingrediente extra.
Por simplicidad se supone que cada ingrediente extra tiene el mismo costo por unidad de área. En C++

I'm interested in PDEs. What are some strong graduate schools to consider?
I'm a Eurupean master's degree student. My main interest lies within the area of PDEs. I'm about to start applying to PhD programs. I've discussed at lenght with my master's degree advisor about possible places to study at. Her suggestions are mostly about European institutions (where her collaborators work), since she does not have much contact with American institutions. So, I'm here to collect some information.
Apart from extraordinarily prestigious flagship schools (Courant, Berkeley, MIT), what American Universities have strong programs and numerous faculty members (that complessively cover a broad range of interests) in the area of PDEs?

Stag Spooner: Wild Man from the Bush by Chris Maclean
Category: Overstocks | Reading Level: Very Good
Stag (Neville) Spooner (1917-1946) was a government deer culler in 1939 and 1940, initially in the Tararuas, and then on the South Island's West Coast. While his successful career as a culler was cut short by the Second World War, he did leave behind a remarkable legacy from this period, a painted diary of his experiences that he entitled Those Wild Men from the Bush. This diary, which forms the heart of this book, is a fascinating chronicle of the life of a professional hunter, who somewhat unusually, was also an artist. Stag Spooner went on to create another highly individual body of art during the war, a series of decorated envelopes that were sent back to his family and friends. In this book Chris Maclean brings to light Stag's singular body of artwork, while also telling the story of his adventurous life, which started in the Wairarapa where he developed his love of hunting, progressed into becoming a deer culler, and then saw active service during the Second World War in North Africa and Italy, as part of a Field Ambulance Unit. Soon after his return to New Zealand Stag's life tragically ended on a hunting trip, alone, in the Fiordland mountains. Stag Spooner is a unique book that finally recognises the life and world of a remarkable New Zealand hunter and artist. ...Show more
History of Fly Fishing in Fifty Flies by Ian Whitelaw; Julie Spyropoulos (Illustrator)
The History of Fly Fishing in Fifty Flies recounts the history of a sport that dates back two thousand years, focusing on milestone flies from the first feathered hook to contemporary patterns using cutting edge materials.From the many thousands of fly patterns developed over the centuries (there are mo re than 1,700 salmon fly patterns alone) these fifty have been chosen to represent the development not only of the flies themselves but also of fly fishing techniques--and of rods, lines, and reels. These iconic flies also chart the spread of this addictive sport from its modern origins on the chalk streams of southern England and the rivers of Scotland to the US, Europe, South America and the Antipodes, and now to every country in the world.Once limited to trout and salmon, fly-fishing techniques today are used to catch every fish species from minnows to marlin, in rivers, lakes and oceans from the Amazon to the Arctic. Filled with profiles of the key characters, tying tips, photographs and illustrations of the flies, and detailed explanations of the techniques used to fish them, The History of Fly Fishing in Fifty Flies charts the exponential growth and diversification of this fascinating sport. ...Show more

Michael Jackson: One Year After His Death, Thrilling the World
Author Topic: Michael Jackson: One Year After His Death, Thrilling the World (Read 3308 times)
from SPEAK EASY:
June 25, 2010, 8:00 AM ET
By Nelson George
Michael Jackson in "Thriller" in 1983. I was in Beijing, China two weeks ago, a city that is hurtling toward world domination as quickly as its seven lane highways can take it. Like any American visitor I looked for signs of our pop culture in the center of capitalist communism. On the basketball courts I found Kobe Bryant and even Team USA jerseys. Facebook and Twitter are like ghostly presences, felt because of the very fact they are blocked. I spotted an ad for some movie featuring John Cusack and Asian actors at a bus stop.
In the hip 798 Art Zone there are cheeky t-shirts that feature Obamao, a mash-up of our President with Chairman Mao that either confirms the Tea Party's worse fears or suggests the Chinese have a much cheekier sense of humor than the West give them credit for. But the most beautiful image of America I observed in Beijing was a lovely yellow and black poster featuring a smiling Michael Jackson with some Chinese characters underneath, which translated to "I look to heaven to fulfill its prophecy."
I'm not sure what the poster makers mean by that, but its tone and image felt reverent, which is in keeping with how Michael Jackson was pretty much viewed around the world even before his demise a year ago today. While his career and reputation have been in domestic free fall since the mid-90s, Michael was still an respected entertainer in most of the world, a feeling that was certainly intensified by his death. Even before he had announced his fifty comeback shows in London, a weakly mounted jukebox musical called "Thriller" was selling out in that city's West End. I went to see it in early 2009 and left more impressed with its multi-national audience than the onstage recreation of Jackson's life.
It is here, in his home country, that death has truly served his reputation. While Jackson's critics certainly are still out there, his fans have come out of the musical closet to re-assert their love of the man. The millions of people who were charmed by the Jackson Five, purchased "Thriller" and practiced his dance moves in front of bedroom mirrors have been liberated by his death to overlook the faults and celebrate the joy he inspired. No longer dispirited by scandalous new reports or put off by his kids wearing hoods in public, this silent majority of music lovers have given free reign to their delight by purchasing millions of dollars in CDs, merchandise and DVDs.
Michael Jackson in New York City in the 1970s. This is not simply old heads feeling nostalgic. Kids in the single digits have spend the past year hearing the music and seeing the dances, and are growing up with Jackson as a favorite alongside Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga and what passes for pop in 2010. I've seen this phenomenon first hand and I've had numerous people tell me stories of sons and daughters, entranced by Jackson's image in the wake of the video marathons his death engendered.
As the greatest artist of the now long-gone MTV music video era, it is quite apt that Jackson is now cultivating a new generation of fans via iPhone, iPad and other mobile devices. His music, clothes and moves are easily adaptable to the ways young people consume culture now. So while Michael's body is gone, the sonic and visual testaments to his greatness will likely outlast his trials and, certainly, outlive all of us.
Nelson George is the author of "Thriller: The Musical Life of Michael Jackson."

I cried like three straight days My mom cried. My little cousins cried. Michael is timeless. The hardest dudes I know love MJ.

An insurance company acting n bad faith breaches its fiduciary duty to the policyholder. It is, in effect, a breach of contract on the part of the insurer to accept payment for premiums and then not provide coverage per the terms of the established policy. Even as a business owner, you're not immune to the detrimental effects a bad faith insurer can have on your finances, especially in the wake of a sudden catastrophe. Defeating the insurance company at its own game requires preparation, proof, and no shortage of legal assistance from experienced commercial litigation lawyers in Pennsylvania. The steps might seem simple, but it's easy to overlook them.
A simple photograph of the affected area in your business, home, or vehicle may not be sufficient evidence in a bad faith claim. Take as many pictures of the damage as possible from multiple angles. The more photographic evidence you have, the better case your legal team can make that the damage doesn't stem from some preexisting defect in the property – a popular tactic with insurance companies when denying legitimate claims. For a more comprehensive view of the accident scene, take video footage if you have a recorder handy or a Smartphone with a video option.
Many business owners and individuals don't understand the intricacies of the coverage they've purchased. Insurance companies tend to litter the documents with complicated legal language that make them impenetrable to anyone who hasn't the bar exam. Attorneys with in-depth knowledge of contractual law can review your policy and identify policy exemptions that limit your coverage and exempt the insurance company from paying for your damages. For example, anti-concurrent clauses in a homeowner's policy can exempt an insurance company from paying for wind damage if it occurs at the same time as a 'non-covered' event like flooding. These types of clauses in insurance policies touched off multiple bad faith lawsuits against insurers in the wake of Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
Are your phone calls to the adjuster going unanswered? If the communication between you and your insurance company has stopped regarding your open claim, there may be bad faith at work. Remember, the adjuster overseeing your claim isn't your friend or your advocate in obtaining compensation for your covered losses. The adjuster is an employee of the insurance company, nothing more, and the overarching goal is simple – limit payouts. A lengthy delay in claims processing is a breach of contract in Pennsylvania as it violates state statute requiring fair and expedient resolution for legal claims. The insurer is placing its own financial interests ahead of your own as their policyholder, and that practice is illegal.
Never have a recorded conversation with an adjuster without an attorney present who's working for you. The insurance company plays by a set of rules you haven't read and won't be privy to as you sift through the wrecked pieces of your home or place of business. You should also refrain from signing any documents until your legal team has had the opportunity to review the paperwork and determine if the insurer actually needs your signature on the documents requested. As a rule, if the language on documents appears complicated, the insurer intends for it to be so – hand it to your attorney.
Bad faith insurance damages the entire liability coverage system, weakens consumer confidence and puts no shortage of anxiety on policyholders. Spotting the warning signs of breaches in fiduciary duty may not stop the action outright, but it can provide powerful ammunition to pursue a bad faith claim against the insurer who would infringe on your rights. Call our firm today to get the answers to your important questions.

GM's IPO: Another Step in Recovery -- Not the End of the Road
David Schepp
General Motors IPO
General Motors' pending initial public offering has the hallmarks of being a success. With the shares nearly ready to begin trading on Wall Street, today GM increased the size of the IPO to 478 million common shares, up 31% from the previously planned 365 million shares. Just yesterday, the auto giant boosted the range of the common share price to $32 to $33 a share from the initial range of $26 to $29 a share.
GM did so, according to news reports, in response to strong investor demand, a positive sign that may quell critics who have argued that the Detroit automaker acted too quickly in cobbling together its IPO. They say that to ensure greater revenue from the offering, GM should have instead logged a few more profitable quarters. But, as has been widely reported, GM's stock sale is as much politics as it is business.
The Obama administration is anxious to get out of the car business, and GM is eager to shed the epithet critics have ascribed to the company -- "Government Motors." And while Thursday's stock sale won't eliminate government ownership by a long shot, the U.S. Treasury will no longer hold a majority stake in the company, reducing its claim to about 40% from the current 61%.
Still Needed: Customer Loyalty
The nearly $14 billion offering isn't the end of the road for GM's problems, however. Though the company has managed to return to profits after years of losing money, the U.S. auto market remains intensely competitive. And as Toyota Motor's (TM) numerous recalls have revealed, a company is never far from a devastating misstep that can damage even the most well-cultivated brand. Toyota's image for quality and safety has taken a hit (as have its U.S. sales). Still, the Japanese automaker enjoys a commodity GM hasn't yet regained: customer loyalty.
To accomplish that, GM must continue to make cars, trucks and other vehicles that customers want and to build them well. Recent product introductions, including the revised Buick LaCrosse sedan, new Chevrolet Cruze compact and refashioned Chevrolet Equinox small SUV, show promise, but they aren't the best in their respective classes. Asian automakers and crosstown rival Ford Motor (F) continue to churn out superior products that better appeal to discerning consumers and critics alike.
GM must also wrestle with the fallout from its decision to slash thousands of dealers from its franchise network. When it exited bankruptcy in July 2009, the automaker had about 6,000 dealerships in the U.S. A plan to cut that to about 3,600 fell about 900 short after Congress intervened last December by requiring GM to institute a formal appeals process. GM ended up with 4,500 dealers after all the cuts were finalized in October, a number many experts say is still too high.
Still Needed: A Leader Who's Passionate About Cars
GM will also soon have to renegotiate contracts with the United Auto Workers union. The bankruptcy process eliminated antiquated work rules and excess job classifications that kept union labor employed even in times of slack demand. But the union rules were a drain on GM's finances. With contract negotiations in the offing next year, the UAW will likely demand some givebacks now that GM is once more profitable.
Less pressing but nonetheless important is GM's need for a leader who exhibits a demonstrable zeal about the cars and trucks the company designs and manufactures. Ford's Alan Mulally and Sergio Marchionne at Chrysler Group are far more charismatic and enthusiastic about the auto industry than GM CEO Daniel Akerson, who's too-buttoned down to be a "car guy."
Akerson, who has deep experience in private equity as a former director at Carlyle Group, may prove to be effective at leading GM through its IPO, but the automaker's longer-term prospects require the passion for automobiles of someone like Bob Lutz, who oversaw design at GM for more than eight years before being relegated to an advisory role last December by then-CEO Edward Whitacre.
Akerson's tenure as CEO is expected to be longer than that of Whitacre (10 months) and Whitacre's predecessor, Frederick "Fritz" Henderson (eight months), but whether the 61-year-old Akerson can produce results long-term isn't yet clear.
GM in the last year has made a remarkable comeback. Though the company's survival seemed highly uncertain at points, the federal government's decision to step in and save GM and Chrysler -- and thousands of jobs -- may go down as one of the best policies it has ever pursued.
"It shows that despite all the criticism, at times you do need [to help] ... those entities that are critical for a country's economy to function," says Jesse Toprak, senior analyst at TrueCar.com.
Whether U.S. taxpayers will receive full repayment for the nearly $50 billion loaned to GM through the government's bailout remains to be seen. For now, at least, the nation's largest automaker appears on its way to a brighter and more profitable future.

US 2021, 82 min Director JAMES REDFORD
In this rich portrait of celebrated Bay Area writer Amy Tan, the author of The Joy Luck Club, now in her 60s, reflects upon both the intimate histories of her family and her own, which alone could fill the pages of several memoirs.

Fellow authors Isabel Allende (The House of the Spirits) and Kevin Kwan (Crazy Rich Asians), as well as cast members from the 1993 film adaptation of The Joy Luck Club including Rosalind Chao and Tamlyn Tomita, flesh out the otherwise autobiographical tale, offering loving outside perspectives of Tan and her work in this enlightening doc, which marks the final film by fellow Bay Area artist, director James Redford (Happening: A Clean Energy Revolution).

LOUISVILLE — Preston Knowles scored a season-high 18 points, Gorgui Dieng added 15 and Louisville remained unbeaten with a 92-55 romp over Florida International on Wednesday night.
The Cardinals (5-0) stayed perfect at their new downtown arena by swamping the Panthers (4-3) from the opening tip. Louisville scored the game's first 13 points and led by 33 at the half.
Eric Frederick led FIU with 12 points. The Panthers missed their first seven shots, trailed by 20 less than nine minutes in and never threatened.
Knowles, out of Clark County, has been chastised recently by Coach Rick Pitino for his poor conditioning and inability to get his teammates involved. Showing a renewed vigor, the senior captain added six boards and three assists in his best game of the season.
The Panthers shot 28 percent from the floor, turned it over 22 times and made just two of 13 three-pointers.
Louisville had no such issues. Knowles came into the game shooting 29 percent from three-point range, a number Pitino attributed to Knowles' habit of bypassing easy shots for ones with a hand in his face.
His selection wasn't that much better against the Panthers, but the results were. He shot 4-for-8 from behind the arc, including one just before the halftime buzzer that gave Louisville a 48-15 lead..
FIU (4-3) — Moore 0-1 2-2 2, Gary 0-3 2-6 2, Wright 4-8 2-4 11, Roberts 1-7 2-2 4, Allen 2-4 3-5 7, Weaver 1-5 0-0 2, Russell 2-2 2-2 7, Kee 0-2 0-0 0, Frederick 5-16 2-4 12, Pack 0-5 8-8 8, Bell 0-0 0-0 0. Totals 15-53 23-33 55.

Can the stock's impressive rise be too much of a good thing?
The Industry Focus: Consumer Goods team is revisiting major consumer and retail initial public offerings from last year.
In this video, they conclude their discussion of high-end outerwear retailer Canada Goose (NYSE:GOOS) with a check-in on its similarly high-end valuation.
This video was recorded on June 5, 2018.
Vincent Shen: The last thing that I think we should cover before we move on, this is something that, last year, when we were talking about the company, I was a little bit more skittish about, and that's the high valuation. Right now, shares trade, I have at almost 80x forward earnings estimates. That's not too far off from where we were the last time around. I have to admit that, with this update, I'm still really impressed by this business. I'm a little closer, I think, to coming around for this stock, in terms of the valuation, but part of me still thinks fashion trends, apparel can be a very fickle industry. But when you have a management team that's very disciplined, that they prioritize the brand positioning first and foremost, because that's something that's so difficult to build up, even if you have a ton of money to spend, I think it's good to see the discipline they've maintained there.
Even if growth does level out for this company over time, I think I'm much closer to giving this company a bullish recommendation, for example, for the next five to ten years. Those are pretty solid investing horizons for Fools to consider. I'm curious what you think, given the premium that this stock trades at, if your position has changed.
Asit Sharma: My position hasn't changed. I'm still optimistic on this stock. But look, let's be honest, this is a company that's 60 years old, and it's built its really high-end product very gradually over decades. It's a really recent entrant into the public markets, and we all know, investors, you've seen a company that just zooms up the chart and has one quarter where it "misses earnings expectations". This is probably ripe for a pullback at some point in the near future.
However, I don't think investors should be rattled. One thing I love about Canada Goose is, it's very methodical in how it expands its business. Another piece of recent news is that the company has filed, I'll call it a draft prospectus, to raise $1.25 billion in the Canadian markets, its home base. It's going to use this most likely for expanding production and building out more of these flagship stores. But it doesn't need this cash right now. In fact, in the announcement of the draft, it's given a wide array of ways it can actually raise that money, be it debt, new stock issuances, warrants. It's basically planning for that long term.
Be prepared, listeners, if you own this stock, at some point, it must retrace. Everything that rises has to come down at some point before it rises again. That's just a principle of the stock market. All in all, I'm with Vince, five to ten years, I think you have a solid investment here.
Shen: I'll just end on this note in that, some of the, for example, investments that you mentioned in terms of their manufacturing base, things along those lines, I think as they develop some of that infrastructure, the company can increase its scale, have more control and flexibility with each new store it opens, each new market that opens, each e-commerce portal that it launches. And I think that's going to be very important, having some of that control, being able to fine tune, in terms of what, ultimately, a customer who buys, for example, a $1,000 parka from Canada Goose expects is really consistent, high quality. That's something that's part of the brand cachet. So, having the discipline there, the control there, I think, is really important long-term for the company, to make sure it's able to manage and nurture what I think a lot of people would argue is the most important part of the business, being its brand and the reputation that it's developed.

The Soundtrack To My Life. 12/08/2011.
This week I've been mainly listening to bagpipes.
How I love their strangled cat whiney out of tune sound.
It's bagpipe season here in Glasgow and tomorrow morning I'll be getting out of bed at 4.30am to work at the World Pipe Band Championships on Glasgow Green where there will be HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of bagpipers strangling out of tune whiney cats for 16 hours.
It's gonna be a long day and I've brought it all on myself.
I really enjoyed The World Pipe Band Championships.
It turned out to be a great day!

Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Monday praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a "cure" for problems facing the country and asserted he will be voted back to power in the Lok Sabha election that must be held by May.
Addressing an event in Moradabad, he said "Chowkidar chor nahi, chowkidar pure hai. Next PM sure hai, problem ke liye cure hai," Mr Singh said, using the word Congress president Rahul Gandhi has used to attack Modi on the Rafale jet deal.
Mr Singh also cited several central government schemes – such as Ujjwala Yojana of providing free LPG connections to poor households and Ayushman Bharat health care programme – to make his point.

Fetch TV is an Australian founded and owned business that offers wholesale subscription television programming over the Internet. When Fetch TV engaged Artefact to help redesign their set …... As a poster has told us... even in stand by the unit uses 19watts of power...add this to the TV (if also in stand by ) and a DVD recorder if used and you are leaving the equivalent of at least a 25/30 watt bulb running at least 24hrs a day !!!!!
Radio and Telly UK Forum BT vision without home hub?
Can anyone please confirm if Fetch TV is meant to automatically play the next aired program that has been recorded or not? i.e. Masterchef and Madam Secretary recorded, watch Masterchef and just as it ends it starts playing Madam Secretary, instead of dropping back to a menu of recorded programs as I would expect it too.
Usually the set top box card is set up for the State in which was purchased - called 'Bouquets'. This groups the States TV channels so that the remote goes through all of that States TV channels before venturing further away.
31/10/2017 · Ok after upgrading a Fetch TV from a TiVo about a year ago, the unit has now become unreliable. I get picture breakup, also frozen then blank screens. Then the next day all is good. I've had someone come in to check then replace an older TV antenna.

Project Type - Pilot Projects
Adapting a Cognitive Training Program for Adults Ageing with HIV
Culturally adapting an intervention for adults with HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders
Globally, 21% of people living with HIV are over 50 years old. Approximately 80% of people with HIV live in sub-Saharan Africa including Zimbabwe (Auterinth et al, 2016). HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) have a prevalence of 43% globally (Wang, 2020), making it one of the biggest threats to brain health in this region. HAND consists of HIV-associated dementia, mild neurocognitive disorder, and asymptomatic neurocognitive impairment (Antinori, et al 2007). Cognitive training is effective in improving working memory, memory and executive function and could potentially also help patients with HAND (Becker et al, 2012; Ezeamama et al, 2020). The current project aims to culturally adapt and test a cognitive training intervention that can be used in adults with HAND.
This project will culturally adapt and translate a cognitive training program for adults aging with HIV. Smartbrain Pro is a computerized program with training tasks on processing speed, attention, executive function and memory that will be used to improve cognition. To ensure Smartbrain Pro works in the local Zimbabwean context, the ADAPT-ITT model of cultural adaptation will be utilized, which consists of eight sequential phases of a prescriptive method for adapting evidence-based interventions (Wingood & DiClemente, 2008). This study will be conducted at an urban clinic in Zimbabwe that offers HIV treatment services. Participants will be recruited during their routine clinic visit and will come to the clinic biweekly for cognitive training. The relevant tasks from Smartbrain Pro will be selected, culturally adapted, and translated. Twenty participants will be recruited. We anticipate qualitative results from focus group discussion with 10 participants who would have completed the intervention. This will provide feedback that can be incorporated into the intervention as it gets tested out in a future randomized control trial.
We hypothesize that Smartbrain Pro will be a robust cognitive training program to improve the brain health of adults aging with HIV. Subsequently, this will be tested in a randomized control study on cognitive rehabilitation of adults with HAND. At the conclusion of this study, we will provide a training program that can be used to improve brain health in a population with the highest prevalence of cognitive impairment globally.

Is SEO determining news search trends on internet?
With extensive amalgamation of SEO in designing and promoting a website, it is felt that it is driving searching engine results away from the actual reach. It is making the worst impact over journalistic news appearing on the internet. With the help of keyword search, news organizations, in order to increase their page views are selling popular ideas and views. It has become a trend to create most read news items based upon popular topics selected from the search volume.
This is repeatedly done neglecting the fact that stuff published this way may not be good for reading and have bad aftereffects. One feels it funny and entertaining after immediate reading. This way, SEO takes the information closer to spam argument. And, therefore spam remains spam, whatever, Search Engine Optimization process you may include in it. Many time tactics of spammers has been labeled as SEO. Search Engine strategy as a smart business strategy can be termed and followed in many ways.
The search data can be used and employed as to produce effective product and content strategy. It can be used as a mean to maximize customer satisfaction and lead conversion. Customer acquisition process many times begins from the search box instead of form on a website. Even organic search even can be integrated with other marketing efforts as well.
So, the debate continues how the search data can be used for the better output and desired results.
The search data can be used for the specific target audience by developing web pages and lead generation pages employing target specific data. Now with search engines, we go for searching for news by the specific keyword instead of skimming the entire newspaper. The search data must be used by journalists to make sure that they are answering to all the relevant questions raised by their readers. On the course of investigative journalism it is the social net working, which can bring about new challenges and dimensions to spread a new story.
Excellent post with quite useful information. Thanks!

One of the many fascinating benefits about getting to know in depth how food breaks down and interacts with your body, is that your mindset on eating can completely change for the better. What if eating specific foods could prevent you from attaining a full blown cold or virus? What if eating specific foods helped your hair grow faster, your skin clear up, and an aging appearance halt in its tracks? Well guess what gals, this tempeh stir fry and soup recipe may do just that!
That is why you should take the time to educate yourself on real nutrition, and help yourself make the best, most mindful decisions you can when it comes to what you consume. As a result of personally being educated on nutrition, I was able to prevent a sinus infection from laying roots in my head. We all know how excruciatingly pesky head congestion can be, and how great it feels to kick an infection to the curb before it takes over.
– Ginger: Ginger is an ancient remedy to treat colds and flus. Why? Because it can help relieve congestion and it is antiviral.
– Garlic: Contains compounds that help kill off viruses that can cause earaches.
– Tomatoes: Can protect from cold and flu viruses from taking roots with the help of lycopene and beta carotene.
– Mushrooms: Contain antiviral proteins that stimulate immune cells to attack bugs and viruses.
With the help of other great ingredients like quinoa, tempeh, green beans and collard greens, this recipe will boost your immunity, and open up your nasal passages to rid yourself of any nasty germs that are trying to take your health hostage!
In a big soup pan heat up 2 tbsp coconut oil and saute diced white onion and garlic for about 6 minutes until translucent. Add the diced mushrooms and ginger and saute for another 6 minutes. Add 2 cups of water and 2 cups of low sodium vegetable stock. As the liquid is simmering, add the collard greens, tomatoes, seasonings and miso paste. Simmer the whole mixture for about 25 minutes.
In a sauteing pan, heat up 2 tbsp coconut oil and saute the garlic, onion and ginger for about 6 minutes. Add the green beans and broccoli florets and saute for another 7 minutes. Add the liquid aminos, and seasonings and heat for about 4 minutes. Then, add the diced tempeh and saute while stirring for another 5 minutes.
Heat up the quinoa in a bowl, top each quinoa mound with a generous filling of stir fry. In another bowl, serve the soup. Enjoy!
All my favorite ingredients in one place, I dig your site!

Q: Where is the AppCode "extract to file" refactoring? I pretty sure there used to be a KB shortcut to "extract a class to a separate file".
Am I wrong or where did it go?
I tend to write several classes/structs in the same file when on a roll, and then use refactoring to separate those out in separate files, named according to the class name.
I have just set up a new dev mac and now I cant seem to find that refactoring function.
I'm using:

*

*Monterey 12.0.1

*Xcode 13.1

*AppCode 2021.2.4 (Classic IntelliJ shortcuts)

A: AppCode currently supports Move… (F6) for Objective-C only.

The City of Jeffersontown, Kentucky was founded by a man named Abraham Bruner in 1797. Bruner named the town after Thomas Jefferson, but for many years the occupants referred to the town as "Brunerstown". In the early to mid-1900's Jeffersontown did not attract very many inhabitants, that is, until the 1950's. At this time the General Electric Appliance Park opened its doors, bringing a flood of new arrivals to the area. This influx of new citizens brought many improvements and renovations such as new roads and expressways, which made traveling around the city of Louisville much easier. About ten years later, in 1966, the Bluegrass Research and Industrial Park was developed. The park was one of a kind, with a unique and relaxed park setting. Today Bluegrass Research and Industrial Park is the largest in Kentucky making Jeffersontown, Kentucky the third largest city for employment in the state.
Currently the city of Jeffersontown is booming. There are so many restaurants, shops, grocery stores, hotels and businesses around every corner it is hard to keep track. That is one reason why people choose to live in this eventful suburb of Louisville. There are a wide range of housing types available in Jeffersontown as well. From ranches to cape cods in rural and suburban areas; there really is a property in Jeffersontown for everyone.
One of the things Jeffersontown, Kentucky is known for is its annual Gaslight Festival.

Sour Cream Chocolate Chip Muffins are bakery style muffins made at home!
It is no secret that my family loves muffins. I have said it before and I will probably say it again. We love them for breakfast, lunches, snacks, and desserts.
We love that you can make a big batch and keep them in the freezer for quick meals.
I love experimenting with different kinds of muffins, but my kids always love the ones that involve chocolate the best. Today's recipe contains chocolate which means is it one I came up with for my kids.
This recipe can be made with regular flour or with Bob's Red Mill gluten free blend. I love recipes that work well made both the regular way and the gluten free way.
In another bowl combine egg, sour cream, butter, and vanilla.
Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients just until well combined.
Bake for 18-20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool in pan for about 5 minutes than remove to wire rack to finish cooling.
I would like you to break open some of your baked products so we can see the texture inside. I don't think the color of some of your baked products entices me to try the recipe but maybe if I see the texture it would help. Thank you for your consideration and I continue to enjoy many of your recipes, in fact I wrote you about adding the butterscotch chips to your pumpkin recipe because my friends still rave about those being the best muffins ever! I was thrilled to see you tried that add in and liked it also.
Can these be made with dairy free sour cream, df buttermilk, and df butter?
I haven't tried it in this recipe, but yes I think it would work. They might be a different texture, but I think it is worth trying.
Can you use plain greek yogurt in place of the sour cream?
I haven't tried it in this recipe, but I have others and it works. So I think it would be worth trying in this one too. I hope you enjoy them!
