Abbott 'effectively' tied Beto O'Rourke to Biden in Texas gubernatorial debate, campaign strategist says
Incumbent Texas Gov. Greg Abbott tied Beto O'Rourke to President Biden's policies in a debate Friday, according to an expert in campaign debate preparation.
Supreme Court vacancy likely to inflame presidential debate
Moderated by Fox News' Chris Wallace, the 90-minute debate will feature segments on the Supreme Court, the coronavirus, the economy, race and policing, election integrity and the candidates' records. "This time it may actually turn out to be."Both candidates are likely to repeat their talking points about the Supreme Court. But during the debate, their comments are likely to reach vast swaths of the electorate that haven't been following the campaign closely. But this Supreme Court pick gives them the exact reason to hold their nose and vote for somebody they despise because it falls in line with their ideological values."The court vacancy will have to compete with Trump's taxes coming to light. Rocha said Biden will likely use the Supreme Court vacancy and other issues to try to rattle Trump and get him to blurt out ill-advised remarks.

May 17 and 18 at Quonset Air National Guard Base
The Rhode Island National Guard Open House and Air Show will run May 17 and 18 at Quonset Air National Guard Base.
The US Navy Blue Angels will headline the list of performers this year which also includes the following:
USN Blue Angels
F22 Raptor Demo
Sean D. Tucker

The Rhode Island National Guard has participated in the Open House/Air Show since 1991. The air show is a safe,fun, family event that is free of charge. Many sponsor companies have made significant donations that include sunscreen, water, ear plugs and various items to the show's children's area and offers this all to families at no charge. The air show also provides a vehicle for contributions to local charities which to date exceed $1,700,000. The Hasbro Children's Hospital is the air show's largest benefactor and has received over $1,500,000 since inception. A $10 donation per vehicle is optional upon entering the air show. Food and beverages are available at the show at reasonable prices too.
The 2013 show was canceled just two months before it was scheduled to take place, because of federal budget cuts known as sequestration. The sequestration cuts in 2013 led to the cancellation of a significant number of military outreach events nationwide. The Pentagon has decided to resume its military community-outreach programs but has pared down the number of events significantly due to budget cutbacks.

This Is A Great Opportunity For Photographers

There are plenty of challenges for photographing aircraft in flight. For the jets, you need a high speed shutter setting on your camera to catch the action and make sharp images. Shutter speeds of 1/2000 sec or higher should be used for the fastest moving jets. Propeller-driven aircraft are more of a challenge. Although they fly slower, try to use shutter speed settings of 1/250 sec or less to capture some prop motion blur, otherwise, the prop driven aircraft will appear unnaturally frozen and look as if they are about to fall out of the sky! For helicopters, try using shutter speed settings of 1/60 sec or less to blur the slower rotors. These slower shutter speeds will make it challenging to keep the moving aircraft sharp in the frame, while allowing for the capture of motion blur in the props and rotors, so good hand-holding and panning technique is a must! You can also try shooting in burst mode to capture at least one sharp frame out of a burst.
Tripods are NOT a good idea on this occasion - too many people, and the action is too fast except for hand-held shots. Air show security may not let you in with them, so do yourself a favor and leave them at home.
A zoom lens that can handle wide and telephoto shots is a bonus on these occasions. Otherwise, bring a wide angle for those "big picture" shots, or shots of aircraft on the ground, and a long zoom lens for the aerobatic displays. I generally use a 400mm lens for aerial shots and 24mm for the static aircraft displays on the ground.

Airshows are fun! Don't get so engrossed in shooting that you forget to have a good time. Even after many airshows over the years and seeing hundreds of aircraft in flight, I still get goose bumps every time a Mustang screams past.

Q: Tensorflow: "not a valid checkpoint" I am trying to restore a recurrent neural network from a .cpkt file. My code to restore the network is:
graph = tf.Graph()
with graph.as_default():
    X = tf.placeholder(tf.float32, [1, n_steps, n_inputs])
    cell = tf.contrib.rnn.OutputProjectionWrapper(
        tf.contrib.rnn.BasicRNNCell(num_units=n_neurons, activation=tf.nn.relu),
        output_size=n_outputs
    )
    outputs, states = tf.nn.dynamic_rnn(cell, X, dtype=tf.float32)
    saver = tf.train.Saver()
with tf.Session(graph=graph) as sess:
    name = "rnnMonthly2"
    saver.restore(sess, os.getcwd() + "//RNNConfigs//" + name + "//" + name + ".cpkt")
    X_batch = priceArrayToRNNFormat(getPriceArray(symbol="IBM")[-30:0])
    y_val = sess.run(feed_dict={X: X_batch})
    print(y_val)

For reference, the text checkpoint file says that the path of the checkpoint files are as follows:
model_checkpoint_path: "/home/john/Python/StockProject//RNNConfigs//rnnMonthly2//rnnMonthly2.cpkt"
all_model_checkpoint_paths: "/home/john/Python/StockProject//RNNConfigs//rnnMonthly2//rnnMonthly2.cpkt"

For this reason, I would figure that given the file path I fed into saver.restore the model should be restored properly. However, when I run the code I get the following message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/john/Python/StockProject/monthlyRnn1.py", line 151, in <module>
    saver.restore(sess, os.getcwd() + "//RNNConfigs//" + name + "//" + name + ".cpkt.index")
  File "/home/john/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/tensorflow/python/training/saver.py", line 1538, in restore
    + compat.as_text(save_path))
ValueError: The passed save_path is not a valid checkpoint: /home/john/Python/StockProject//RNNConfigs//rnnMonthly2//rnnMonthly2.cpkt.index

What is the cause of this error and what can I do to fix it? For reference, this is the code I used to train and save the network:
saver = tf.train.Saver()
init = tf.global_variables_initializer()

with tf.Session() as sess:
    mse_list = []
    init.run()
    for iteration in range(n_iterations):
        dataOrig = allStocksDict[list(allStocksDict.keys())[iteration]]
        X_batch, y_batch = priceArrayToRNNFormat(dataOrig)
        print(X_batch, y_batch)
        print(X_batch, y_batch)
        sess.run(training_op, feed_dict={X: X_batch, y: y_batch})
        mse = loss.eval(feed_dict={X: X_batch, y: y_batch})
        print(iteration, "\tMSE", mse)
        mse_list.append(mse)
    print(mse_list)
    name = "rnnMonthly2"
    saver.save(sess, os.getcwd() + "//RNNConfigs//" + name + "//" + name + ".cpkt")

Unless you are building a new home, creating an interior design scheme means working within the structure you inherited when you bought your house. Ceiling heights, fireplace placement and room size are just some of the architectural elements that are either impossible or expensive to change. Fortunately, problem windows are an issue that can be managed easily and beautifully.
Unattractive View – For windows that look out over an undesirable view, you can add a semi sheer or an intricately decorated sheer window covering that will stay closed at all times. This design strategy hides the ugly view while allowing light into the space. Roman shades or decorative roller blinds crafted with a translucent fabric are also good options.
Another design strategy we have used is to insert frames into the windows. We stretch sheer fabric over the back of the frame, and then place a decorative fabric over the front. The frame is then slipped tightly into the window casing, allowing light to filter in while shielding the view and adding a lovely decorative element to the space. The window looks like it has been upholstered!
1) Install "up from the bottom, down from the top" window shades which allow flexibility to balance light with privacy.
2) Bring in moveable window coverings that can be opened or closed depending upon your needs. Decorative roller shades, roman shades and drapery panels all do the trick.
3) Our favorite privacy management option are plantation shutters. They are easy to care for, compliment almost any space, and the slats can be placed at many angles to address light and privacy. While they are an upfront investment, they serve as a current and sophisticated permanent architectural feature of your room. Hang stationary drapery panels on either side of the windows to finish the look.
Unsuitable Scale – There is not a lot you can do about the size of the windows in your existing home unless you are willing to make a large investment in remodeling. We helped one of our clients manage this exact problem in the master bedroom pictured above. The top of the windows were three feet down from the ceiling, making them much too small and too low for the scale of the room. Our job was to create a design that made these odd-looking windows make sense in the space. We began by installing a fixed roman shade that went up to the crown molding. By lining the shade with black-out fabric, light was not allowed to shine through the part of the shade that covered the window, making the window appear taller than it actually was. We then added side drapery panels than can be opened and closed. A sheer under curtain helped filter the view and light. Finally, we installed automatic shades that could be lowered and raised for light and privacy control. Now you would never know that the windows were inappropriately scaled to the rest of the room!
Too Much Light – While lots of light is the trend in current home design, there can be times when we can have too much of a good thing. In our clients' sitting room pictured above, three of the sides of the space were dominated with windows – not to mention those in the adjacent rooms! While the tall elegant windows were pretty and looked out over their beautiful yard, the intense amount of light made living in this space uncomfortable. We strategically limited the light let into the room without obstructing the view by designing layered window treatments.
We began by installing stationary roman shades made out of an off-white sheer fabric that filtered the incoming light. Across the top of each window we added another roman shade with a lovely semi-sheer fabric with a painted pattern. We then framed the windows with drapery panels in a neutral fabric. Automatic shades which can be lowered and raised as needed were added to control light and privacy. With this many windows, we had to make sure they did not overwhelm the space. We designed the window coverings to blend beautifully rather than pop off the walls, which would draw too much attention to them. The end result is a well-lit room that is still comfortable to live in.
It is important to remember that windows are on the vertical plane, the most visible part of a space. Therefore, the quality of your design and craftsmanship will be quite noticeable and will set the tone for the rest of the room. If you have problem windows, do not solve them with just another problem! An experienced interior designer can help you create a well-designed strategy that will make the issue disappear beautifully. Let us know if you have a design problem – we'd be happy to help. Send us an email, or give us a call at 317- 253-8986.
When we first met with the owners of this lovely Carmel, IN home, they were looking for the classic lines associated with transitional style. However, we noticed a stunning antique chest with a marble top in their entryway. At once we knew that combining the beautiful antique with a clean design would give our clients the sophisticated yet eclectic space they desired.
The goal of the project was to create a living room and dining room where our clients could entertain their guests comfortably. The living room welcomes people when they first walk in, thereby setting the tone for the rest of the house. The adjacent dining room is open to the living room, and therefore needed a complementary design.
Our clients preferred a soft color scheme, so we went with beiges and creams contrasted with blue and red. While we used variations of neutrals in the space, what made this tonal scheme truly successful was variation in texture. Combining fabrics with different patterns and feels helps lead the eye around the room. This design technique does not provide an overload of visual information, so the structural elements of the furniture are allowed to shine.
Using the horizontal plane of the room, we chose a rug that integrated pattern and color into the living room in an unobtrusive way. The blues and reds in the floor covering were pulled up to eye level through decorative pillows and accessories. In addition, our art-loving clients wanted to find a piece that supported their new, sophisticated look. We found an artist that created the perfect fit for the space.
The decorative pillow is an excellent example of how you can choose expensive fabric that you love and use it wisely. We found this embroidered silk that perfectly complemented both the soft and bold colors of the rug. The fabric pulled everything together and enhanced the visual interest – it is one the first things your notice in the room! While that one element was expensive for a pillow, it completes the room. Our clients felt the investment was totally worth it.
The drapery was the final element brought into the space, providing a finished look. While the window treatments highlighted the high ceiling and beautiful windows, the soft neutral tones of the room also needed an anchor. The color block at the bottom of the drapery provided a background layer for the furniture, giving it something to pop off of visually when you first enter the home. The large pieces of fabric on the virtual plane also added softness to the space.
The neutral color scheme set in the living room was carried over to the adjacent dining room. We began by applying grass cloth to the walls to immediately warm up the space. Grass cloth has a distinct horizontal pattern, which added texture. Contrast was provided through texture rather than color by bringing in smooth, shiny silk drapery.
The hefty dining chairs were fully upholstered in a light fabric softening space while allowing their lovely structure to shine. The lines of the dining table are simple, but the gorgeous grain of the top leaps out when one enters the room. For the accessories, we went with fewer, larger items. Our intention was to layer the numbers of items as you looked into the room: three plants on the table, two pots on the buffet, five items on the wall. This technique adds balance to the space, as well as a soft, rich look.
Transitional style is built off of the classic lines of traditional furniture, without the embellishments. This design scheme celebrates the silhouette of furniture and accessories rather than the trimmings. While we were able to create the warm and inviting space our clients were looking for, the transitional look also allowed their highly-styled antique chest to be the star. As a gift from family, our clients were happy to have an element that was unique to them set the stage for the rest of their home.

Getting creative with your drapery hardware is an easy and fun way to take your window décor up a notch. We are currently working on a dining room remodel for a client, and she is looking for a space with a lot of bling. Her pleated drapes are being created out of fabric that looks like liquid metal, offering lightness and flow to the room. As we were searching for drapery hardware to compliment that look, we came across these glass finials. The transparent globe allows light to flow to the glittery silver leaf knob inside, which reflects it back. The sparkle of the finial will play well off the shimmery drapes, adding another bit of the bling our client desires.


Ina-Yoko Teutenberg continued her recent run of success on Friday winning Drenthe 8 Van Dwindeloo. Coming off the win at Redlands Classic and perhaps her career highlight, winning Ronde Van Vlaanderen last Sunday, Teutenberg can be very pleased with the way her 2009 season has begun.
"If you told me a few weeks ago that I'd win 10 races by mid April I would have laughed at you," Teutenberg joked. "But I had a really good off season and it's nice to start the season like this."
Teutenberg also won Drenthe 8 Van Dwindeloo in 2008 but she said the course had changed.
"Today we had a cobbled section 2km from the finish line which made positioning at the end vital," she explained. "Normally the cobbles come with ten kilometers to go. The conditions were also very different in that it was hot for Holland and not windy enough to really split things up."
The 140km race saw a few breaks get away mid race, but everything came back together for a bunch sprint at the end.
"When we hit the cobbles there was a good attack from Sarah Duster," said Teutenberg. "Nuernberg had to work pretty hard to close the gap and then they went on to do the lead out for Regina [Schleicher]. She started to sprint at 200m to go and I squeezed through a gap to come around her with about 50 meters to go."
"I'm quite happy this race is over to be honest, said Teutenberg. "I was really tired today and the race was fast so I suffered a lot. But I'm happy with the result and now I will try to rest up for the World Cup on Monday."

I have pondered over my first Blog post for many days now. Firstly, may I add – setting this site up has been a real learning curve for me. I am still perfecting things as you can probably tell!
The real purpose of this Blog (as you can read here) is to simplify marketing for small businesses. Recently even I find myself in a world of ridiculous jargon, not to mention an over emphasis on digital and content. Just because many businesses are jumping on the digital bandwagon doesn't mean you have to.
Many marketers neglect the fact that the ultimate goal is to provide a solution to a problem. We are all recipients of totally irrelevant promotional blurb – in our inbox, through our doors and down the phone. So why does this happen? Simply, those businesses do not understand who they are marketing to.
So lets take this right back to the fundamental principles of marketing.
Firstly, you need to identify the problem. What actually is it that requires a solution? What is the purpose of the product or service? You need to think like the customer and brainstorm the real benefits you will deliver.
Once you have identified the problem you can align the problem to the solution. How do you think you customers will feel when they resolve the problem they encounter? Brainstorm as much as you can, even if you are just jotting down keywords.
Now identify what the customer looks like. Who are they? What do they do? Where are they? What does their daily life look like? You may identify several different buyer 'personas' through this process; this is great – write them all down.
It may be really worthwhile to mock up a visuals of your customer groups, use stock images if necessary. I personally find pages of images better than pages of text.
These steps should give you a great idea of the perfect candidate for your product or service.
The benefit of knowing your customers inside out is that you can produce more relevant communications aimed specifically at those groups.
I am finding more and more that businesses are neglecting these fundamentals to appeal to multiple customer segments, especially across digital platforms. Chucking random content out is not the answer.
It is true that sometimes a 'shot in the dark' can pay off – but for those who really want to create an incredible experience, set themselves apart from the competition and add value to their brand, there is nothing more important than REALLY knowing your customer.


Salmon fishing in Connecticut...good practice for springers.
I apologize for a bit of shameless self promotion this week. The Winter 2015 issue of the Theodore Gordon's Flyfishers newsletter, Gordon's Quill, was recently published. In this issue, my friend and guide client, Warren Stern, interviewed me about salmon fishing in Connecticut, amongst other topics. If you'd like to read it, click this link to navigate to the newsletter. Thanks to Warren and the Theodore Gordon Flyfishers for their interest in our fishery, as well as for all the great work they do in the areas surrounding NYC.
Thanks for the link to the interview, very informative.
Well Done Ben!!! I enjoyed the read!

It takes courage to change career after several years in the same industry, but it certainly seems to have paid off for chef trainer Richard Liversidge so far!
From working at the likes of The Wolseley and The Delaunay, Richard decided he wanted to develop and train a new generation of chefs and became a chef trainer at Corbin & King. He spoke to The Staff Canteen about career changes, his new apprenticeship scheme and how he thinks it can help tackle the chef shortage.
Richard Liversidge
He started his career as an electrical engineer for Jaguar but decided his calling was to work as a chef.
He said: "Having been in the same job for 25 years, I thought it was time to try something different and test myself in a different industry. Food had always been a passion and it probably would be something I'd have regretted not trying if I didn't give it a go. Luckily, it's worked out!"
He began his training at Leith's Cookery School where he received his first grounding in cooking.
"I really enjoyed my time at Leith's. I made some really good friends there and contacts within the industry. I'm still in touch with the school and help arrange work experience placements within Corbin & King for the current students."
Having worked in a couple of different kitchens, after undertaking his training Richard took up the role of a commis chef at The Wolseley before joining The Delaunay as a sous chef.
He explained: "I think the training I received through Corbin & King helped me with the sous chef role through management training and mentoring."
Richard is now a chef trainer and he is employed for a training provider called NCAL but works solely for Corbin & King. He says that he wanted to 'give something back' to the organisation after receiving 'a lot of help and training' from them.
He enjoys passing on his knowledge to junior staff members and seeing them develop. One of the ways that he is achieving this is by designing and developing a new apprenticeship scheme.
Creating dishes that have an impact
"It not only fulfils the requirements of the standard but also helps prepare people for life in a kitchen and to go on and have successful careers in our industry," said Richard. "It also involves working with suppliers and other people in hospitality to find interesting and educational ways in which to broaden the apprentice's knowledge and appreciation for the wider industry."
He added: "The scheme runs between 12 to 14 months and involves weekly evening training sessions in a kitchen that we have adapted for teaching. We aim to cover different skills each week with small groups of apprentices.
Alongside this, we have masterclasses run by experts in their field. We have devised the masterclasses in partnership with some of Corbin & King's suppliers such as, fishmongers, butchers, vegetable suppliers, bakers and we have even worked alongside chefs from other restaurants who specialise in game."
There are various apprenticeship schemes out there, so why did Richard feel it was necessary to set up a completely bespoke scheme?
"It was so that we could not only meet the needs of the apprenticeship standard, but also the needs of C&K restaurants.
The apprenticeship scheme
is helping prepare chefs for the
"Many people are more practical and enjoy 'doing' more than sitting in a classroom or lecture theatre studying. Apprenticeships allow for this kinaesthetic learning and offer tremendous experience 'on-the-job' while you are studying and learning too; this is unique to the chef-apprenticeship standards that have launched this year.
While there is still a requirement for 20% of the apprentice's time to be 'off-the-job', this does not have to be off-site, so we have been able to develop a truly bespoke and varied program."
Anyone can apply for the Corbin & King apprenticeship and you don't necessarily have to be a school leaver to take part. Any ages are welcome, and you don't have to have a strong background or qualification in cooking either. As Richard says, 'all you need is the right attitude and willingness to learn.'
He said: "You can have all the theory in the world, but you also need to be given the skills to put it into practice.
"Also, not everyone is lucky enough to be able to take a year or more away from a work environment to learn all the theory. An apprenticeship offers the best of both worlds"
The C&K mantra: 'hire for will, train for skill' is a huge part of the scheme, which Richard hopes will help tackle the issue of the chef shortage.
Getting stuck in
"If we can inspire people with the right attitude to join our wonderful industry we can give them the skills that they need. We need a way to engage with people and offer something different to get them involved in hospitality. The opportunity for formal training and a nationally recognised qualification is one way of doing this."
He added: "We say if you can be successful at Corbin & King, then it will enable you to go on and work anywhere in the UK and internationally, like many of our alumni have done."
Richard believes 'we owe it to the apprentices to get it right' and said: "The foundation of their careers is in our hands. A successful apprenticeship scheme will hopefully encourage more people to be chefs and give them the skills and confidence to stay in the industry and have a successful career."
He added: "We have created a programme entirely bespoke to us, meaning our apprentices start their hospitality careers with the knowledge to help them succeed in Corbin & King, as well as the wider industry."

Ground turkey often has a lower fat content so there is no need to drain off grease, which saves time. It can make easy dinners, like my gluten free korean ground turkey and rice bowl a breeze to make on a rushed weeknight.
I often make meatballs using ground turkey. My family can't tell that my meatballs aren't beef because they are so flavorful!
The ingredients for gluten free turkey meatballs are simple.
And they are easy to prep! Just mix the ingredients together in a bowl, scoop the turkey mixture and shape it into balls.
I use my 1 ½ tablespoon cookie scoop because it makes shaping the turkey meatballs quick and easy. They come out mostly round, and I just smooth them out a little by gently rolling each meatball between my palms before cooking.
Traditionally meatballs have breadcrumbs in them.
The breadcrumbs, along with milk, eggs, and seasoning, help your meatballs to be tender and juicy.
The breadcrumbs can absorb extra fat from the ground meat, which keeps your meatballs juicy.
To make gluten free meatballs, simply swap the regular breadcrumbs for a gluten free breadcrumb or substitute.
Where do you buy gluten free bread crumbs?
I see gluten free breadcrumbs at nearly every store I shop at. Even Walmart has some in stock! If you are planning ahead and find a good deal of breadcrumbs, go ahead and buy some.
How do you make gluten free breadcrumbs?
You certainly don't need to buy breadcrumbs, it is super easy to make them. And you don't have to have gluten free bread!
How do you cook gluten free turkey meatballs?
How do you cook turkey meatballs on the stove top?
I love cooking my turkey meatballs on the stove top because I can get a nice caramelization on all sized.
You just don't get the same browning if you cook them in a pressure cooker, slow cooker, or in the oven.
Cooking on a stove top also means I can turn my gluten free turkey meatballs frequently to help them retain their round shape.
While I think that cooking turkey meatballs in a skillet on the range gets the best texture and flavor, I usually don't do it just because I don't want to/have the time to babysit the pan.
If you do have the time, your efforts will be rewarded. Just look at those juicy golden turkey meatballs.
They remind me of the chicken meatballs you can get at Ikea, so I served mine with some cherry filling on the side instead of the lignon berry sauce that Ikea has (just because that is what I have.) So yummy!
Heat a skillet (nonstick or cast iron are my favorites) over medium heat and add a little drizzle of oil. I like to use olive oil, but coconut oil, avocado oil, or vegetable oil will work great too.
Once your pan is hot, add your turkey meatballs. Keep them rolling around, every 30 seconds or so, to help them brown evenly and retain their roundness.
How do you cook turkey meatballs in the oven?
I love baking my turkey meatballs because I don't have to babysit them, and it is still pretty quick. I often pop them in the oven and then will play with the kids or help them with homework.
For easy clean-up, I always line my baking sheet with aluminum foil. A little drizzle of oil will help to keep the turkey meatballs from sticking, and will help them to brown.
If you use parchment paper instead, you may not need to use any oil because the parchment paper will prevent them from sticking.
To promote even browning, plan to give your turkey meatballs a little flip about half-way through.
Preheat your oven to 375°f and line a baking pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Place your turkey meatballs on the prepared baking sheet with an inch or so in between (they can be close, just not touching).
Bake for 10 minutes, flip, and then bake for another 6-10 minutes or until they are cooked through. They will reach an internal temperature of 165°f and be lightly golden.
How do you cook turkey meatballs in a pressure cooker or Instant Pot?
My hands-down favorite way to cook turkey meatballs is in my Instant Pot. Why? It is super quick and easy.
The meatballs also impart a great flavor to the sauce, and the sauce flavors the turkey meatballs.
Clean up is super easy! Also, you can cook frozen-raw meatballs in the same time as you would cook raw meatballs.
If I'm making spaghetti, I will pour in one jar of pasta sauce.
If I'm making Teriyaki or Barbecue turkey meatballs, I'll do 1-2 cups of sauce.
You need at least one cup for the pressure cooker to come up to pressure properly, and safely.
Pour at least one cup of your favorite sauce into your pressure cooker.
Add your turkey meatballs to the sauce and set your Instant Pot or electric pressure cooker to manual 10 minutes on high pressure.
When finished, release pressure with either the natural or quick release method.
How do you cook turkey meatballs in a slow cooker or crock pot?
When I'm on top of things and already prepping my dinner in the morning, my slow cooker is perfect for cooking turkey meatballs.
It has all the same flavor pros as using an Instant Pot or pressure cooker.
The meat flavors the sauce and the sauce flavors the meat.
Add your sauce to your slow cooker and set it to HIGH before you mix up your turkey meatball.
As you roll your meatballs, you can drop them into the warm sauce.
Cook in your slow cooker for X hours on high or X hours on low.
How do you freeze gluten free turkey meatballs?
Whenever I make gluten free meatballs, I make a double batch. Always! I at least make a double batch, if not a triple batch. Why? Because they freeze incredibly well.
To be honest, I rarely freeze already cooked gluten free turkey meatballs, unless we have leftovers that I know we won't eat in the next few days.
I always freeze my meatballs raw.
Scoop the turkey meatball mixture (I use my 1 ½ tablespoon (medium) cookie scoop and gently roll into a ball between the palms of your hands.
Line the rolled turkey meatballs up inside of a freezer-safe gallon size plastic zipper bag.
Carefully squeeze out excess air and then freeze the turkey meatballs on a flat surface.
How do you cook raw turkey meatballs from frozen?
My favorite way to cook my frozen raw turkey meatballs is in my Instant Pot.
It doesn't take any extra time under pressure! I also often bake my frozen raw turkey meatballs. Just add a few extra minutes of cooking time, and you can cook them from frozen! I just pull however many meatballs I need for dinner out the freezer bag, and then save the rest for later.
I also will bake frozen turkey meatballs, they just need a few extra minutes of cook time.
If you want to cook frozen turkey meatballs on the stove top, I'd recommend thawing them at least partially or they'll burn on the outside before they are cooked through.
I do not recommend cooking frozen meatballs in a slow cooker, for food safety reasons. Adding frozen meatballs for cold sauce, they will not come up to a safe temperature quick enough and bacteria will grow.
Ground turkey meatballs can make a quick and easy dinner! With just a few ingredients, these gluten free turkey meatballs are a staple on our menu!
Add all ingredients in a large mixing bowl and gently combine.
Scoop into 1 1/2 tablespoon portions using a 1 1/2 tablespoon spring-loaded scoop (or cookie scoop) and gently roll into a ball between the palms of your hands.


How many times when you are watching an action film or Hitchcock classic do you take in the music and what it is adding to your experience?
I must admit, I rarely did, but I will now after being entertained and educated in this fascinating event by silent film accompanist and composer Neil Brand.
Brand, who you may have seen presenting the BBC4 programme Sound of Cinema: The Music that Made the Movies last year, is riveting as he hurtles through nearly a century of cinema and how every note you hear helps bring about a greater depth for the characters seen on screen.
The natural ability of humans to relate to music and the tactics used by composers to make scenarios and people recognisable were just some of the expert's insights offered up in this intimate talk on November 1.
Equipped with a mindful of knowledge, a grand piano and a projector screen, the importance of film scores and there often obvious link to the great opera composer Wagner became very clear.
This talk at Birmingham's Patrick Centre was just one of the special Ringside events being held in Birmingham this week to coincide with performances of Wagner's Ring operas at Birmingham Hippodrome.
During around 80 minutes, the audience was treated to many clips including scenes from Hitchcock's Vertigo, the original King Kong and, with one of the most recognisable music sequences of all time, Jaws.
But the real highlight was when Brand tinkled the ivories to accompany clips on screen, like with silent footage of Shackleton's ill fated journey to the Antarctic. The pianist did a show and tell in how he could change the mood and hope for the surviving adventurers through a few simple chord changes.
There was also a chance to see rare footage of a wonderful black and white silent movie - Beggars of Life - that Brand and film critic Mark Kermode have taken on tour.
And hearing who and why particular notes became synonymous with film noir was a real ear-opener.
Whether it is opera, music or film that is your particular fancy, this event offered something for them all. It was well thought out, enlightening and overflowed with Brand's enthusiasm for the topic.
It's made me realise how the importance of music in opera has transcended to the silver screen. It adds more meaning and depth to a plot and character. In Brand's own words, "the music gives you what you can't see on screen, if not there would be no reason for it".

The Brothers Bloom
Now that's a fine how-da-ya-do!
(2009) Offbeat Caper Comedy (Summit) Adrian Brody, Rachel Weisz, Mark Ruffalo, Rinko Kikuchi, Robbie Coltrane, Maximillian Schell, Ricky Jay (voice), Zachary Gordon, Max Records, Andy Nyman. Directed by Rian Johnson
When you're a con man, there is no real life. There is no trust, there is nothing that isn't scripted down to the finest detail, there isn't anything really exciting. That's the way it's done, at least, by this brother team.
Brothers Stephen (Ruffalo) and Bloom (Brody) are con artists, and they would tell you there is considerable art in what they do. For Stephen, the ultimate con is where everyone gets what they want; for Bloom, he just wants a life that is unscripted, one he can call his own – one that isn't quite so predictable. Obviously, he hasn't lived the life the rest of us lead.
We see them as youngsters in foster care, having been thrown out of every reputable foster home in the state of New Jersey – that's about 38 of them back in the day (Sha-zing!) when young Stephen (Records) organized the first con starring his brother (Gordon) in an effort to get him to socialize. Twenty years later and Stephen is still trying to get his brother to be less socially awkward.
Now they are accompanied by Bang Bang (Kikuchi), a mostly silent Japanese demolitions expert who excels in making things blow up real good. For Bloom, however, the rose has lost its shine. He is tired of the game, tired of the life, tired of not knowing who he is. He wants out. As is de rigueur for con films, this is to be their last job, even though Stephen still delights and revels in the life.
The mark is Penelope Stamp (Weisz), an agoraphobic heiress who is bored bored bored with her life, so much so that she collects hobbies like juggling chainsaws on a unicycle, skateboarding, break dancing and performing unnecessary breast enlargements on alcoholic women. Okay, the last one wasn't in the movie but she may well have done it. After a carefully orchestrated encounter with Bloom turns into a near-death experience, she gets roped into his world hook line and sinker.
And what a world it is, replete with vaguely threatening sorts (Coltrane as the Curator) and out-and-out threatening sorts (Schell as Diamond Dog, the mentor to the Brothers and now a rival) and, of course, exotic Eastern European locations. The issue becomes that Bloom begins to fall in love with the mark, and how can you con someone when you care about them?
Director Johnson debuted in 2005 with Brick, a kind of film noir hardboiled detective movie set in a modern California high school. Although Da Queen didn't like it much, I respected it for its cadences, the obvious love of the source material and the imaginative genre-bending that was done. There are some of those elements here as well.
Brody is making a career out of the sad sack romantic, and nobody does it better. He's not really the sweetest person on earth nor is he the handsomest, but he always seems endearing enough to charm the pants off (literally) nurturing young women. Ruffalo gets to play a very meaty part that doesn't look like it so much on the surface, but he imbues Stephen with enough quirks and just enough compassion to make him really compelling by film's end.
Think of Johnson stylistically as a cross between Wes Anderson and David Mamet; I'd say overall the tone of the movie combines Mamet's House of Games with Anderson's The Royal Tenenbaums. Anyone who knows these movies will either be straining at the leash to go see The Brothers Bloom based on that description or will be running for the nearest exit.
I get it; the movie is quirky and offbeat which can be a turn-off for mainstream moviegoers who like their movies pre-packaged with predictable storylines, well-known actors and Hollywood endings. This ain't for you, folks; this is for those who love to be surprised and pulled every which way at the movies. This doesn't have the wallop of The Sting but it does keep you guessing throughout the movie until you don't know which way is up, which way is down or which way to the popcorn stand. If you're headed that way, pick me up a bag with extra butter. If I'm going to chow down on The Brothers Bloom, I might as well go all the way.
WHY RENT THIS: Johnson is a phenomenal talent behind the camera and the movie may be quirky but it is ultimately endearing.
WHY RENT SOMETHING ELSE: The tone of the movie is offbeat and American audiences don't do offbeat.
FAMILY VALUES: There is a touch of foul language, some brief violence and a bit of implied sensuality but overall nothing most kids haven't already seen before.
TRIVIAL PURSUIT: The various hobbies "collected" by Penelope in the montage, actress Rachel Weisz learned to do every single one of them.
BOX OFFICE PERFORMANCE: $5.5M on an unreported production budget; although this is an indie as it gets, chances are it didn't make any money.

The purpose of the Mayo Clinic Diet is to help you lose excess weight and to find a way of eating that you can sustain for a lifetime. It focuses on changing your daily routine by adding and breaking habits that can make a difference in your weight, such as eating more fruits and vegetables, not eating while you watch TV, and moving your body for 30 minutes a day.
Proponents of raw foodism argue that cooking food increases the risk of some of the detrimental effects on food or health. They point out that during cooking of vegetables and fruit containing vitamin C, the vitamin elutes into the cooking water and becomes degraded through oxidation. Peeling vegetables can also substantially reduce the vitamin C content, especially in the case of potatoes where most vitamin C is in the skin.[26] However, research has shown that in the specific case of carotenoids a greater proportion is absorbed from cooked vegetables than from raw vegetables.[17]
Medical foods are foods that are specially formulated and intended for the dietary management of a disease that has distinctive nutritional needs that cannot be met by normal diet alone. In the United States they were defined in the Food and Drug Administration's 1988 Orphan Drug Act Amendments[35] and are subject to the general food and safety labeling requirements of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. In Europe the European Food Safety Authority established definitions for "foods for special medical purposes" (FSMPs) in 2015.[36]

In Christianity, wine is used in a sacred rite called the Eucharist, which originates in the Gospel account of the Last Supper (Gospel of Luke 22:19) describing Jesus sharing bread and wine with his disciples and commanding them to "do this in remembrance of me." Beliefs about the nature of the Eucharist vary among denominations (see Eucharistic theologies contrasted).
^ Smithers, Rebecca (February 10, 2012). "Sainsbury's changes food freezing advice in bid to cut food waste". The Guardian. Retrieved February 10, 2012. Long-standing advice to consumers to freeze food on the day of purchase is to be changed by a leading supermarket chain, as part of a national initiative to further reduce food waste. [...] instead advise customers to freeze food as soon as possible up to the product's 'use by' date. The initiative is backed by the government's waste advisory body, the Waste and Resources Action Programme (Wrap) [...] Bob Martin, food safety expert at the Food Standards Agency, said: "Freezing after the day of purchase shouldn't pose a food safety risk as long as food has been stored in accordance with any instructions provided. [...]"
Dietary habits play a significant role in the health and mortality of all humans. Imbalances between the consumed fuels and expended energy results in either starvation or excessive reserves of adipose tissue, known as body fat.[149] Poor intake of various vitamins and minerals can lead to diseases that can have far-reaching effects on health. For instance, 30% of the world's population either has, or is at risk for developing, iodine deficiency.[150] It is estimated that at least 3 million children are blind due to vitamin A deficiency.[151] Vitamin C deficiency results in scurvy.[152] Calcium, Vitamin D, and phosphorus are inter-related; the consumption of each may affect the absorption of the others. Kwashiorkor and marasmus are childhood disorders caused by lack of dietary protein.[153]
Fertilizing and the use of pesticides in conventional farming has caused, and is causing, enormous damage worldwide to local ecosystems, biodiversity, groundwater and drinking water supplies, and sometimes farmer health and fertility. These environmental, economic and health issues are intended to be minimized or avoided in organic farming. From a consumers perspective, there is not sufficient evidence in scientific and medical literature to support claims that organic food is safer or healthier to eat than conventionally grown food. While there may be some differences in the nutrient and antinutrient contents of organically- and conventionally-produced food, the variable nature of food production and handling makes it difficult to generalize results.[47][48][49][50][51] Claims that organic food tastes better are generally not supported by tests.[48][52]

Some people have allergies or sensitivities to foods which are not problematic to most people. This occurs when a person's immune system mistakes a certain food protein for a harmful foreign agent and attacks it. About 2% of adults and 8% of children have a food allergy.[140] The amount of the food substance required to provoke a reaction in a particularly susceptible individual can be quite small. In some instances, traces of food in the air, too minute to be perceived through smell, have been known to provoke lethal reactions in extremely sensitive individuals. Common food allergens are gluten, corn, shellfish (mollusks), peanuts, and soy.[140] Allergens frequently produce symptoms such as diarrhea, rashes, bloating, vomiting, and regurgitation. The digestive complaints usually develop within half an hour of ingesting the allergen.[140]
A 2003 report by archaeologists indicates a possibility that grapes were mixed with rice to produce mixed fermented drinks in China in the early years of the seventh millennium BC. Pottery jars from the Neolithic site of Jiahu, Henan, contained traces of tartaric acid and other organic compounds commonly found in wine. However, other fruits indigenous to the region, such as hawthorn, cannot be ruled out.[27][28] If these drinks, which seem to be the precursors of rice wine, included grapes rather than other fruits, they would have been any of the several dozen indigenous wild species in China, rather than Vitis vinifera, which was introduced there 6000 years later.[27]

In the 20th century, supermarkets were born. Supermarkets brought with them a self service approach to shopping using shopping carts, and were able to offer quality food at lower cost through economies of scale and reduced staffing costs. In the latter part of the 20th century, this has been further revolutionized by the development of vast warehouse-sized, out-of-town supermarkets, selling a wide range of food from around the world.[117]
Cooking dairy products may reduce a protective effect against colon cancer. Researchers at the University of Toronto suggest that ingesting uncooked or unpasteurized dairy products (see also Raw milk) may reduce the risk of colorectal cancer.[38] Mice and rats fed uncooked sucrose, casein, and beef tallow had one-third to one-fifth the incidence of microadenomas as the mice and rats fed the same ingredients cooked.[39][40] This claim, however, is contentious. According to the Food and Drug Administration of the United States, health benefits claimed by raw milk advocates do not exist. "The small quantities of antibodies in milk are not absorbed in the human intestinal tract," says Barbara Ingham, PhD, associate professor and extension food scientist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. "There is no scientific evidence that raw milk contains an anti-arthritis factor or that it enhances resistance to other diseases."[41]
Health food is food marketed to provide human health effects beyond a normal healthy diet required for human nutrition. Foods marketed as health foods may be part of one or more categories, such as natural foods, organic foods, whole foods, vegetarian foods or dietary supplements. These products may be sold in health food stores or in the health food or organic sections of grocery stores.
