Sweet ear? Want to reduce your child's chances of becoming obese? Make sure you treat any middle ear infections promptly. Researchers have found that people who suffered from middle ear infections as children had relatively high rates of damage to the chorda tympani nerve, which passes through the middle ear and controls the sense of taste, particularly their sensitivity to fatty or high-carb foods. Damage to the nerve, the researchers report 20 August at the annual meeting of the American Chemical Society, appears to intensify such cravings, which could lead to overeating and increase the risk of obesity later in life.

How to make Skittles Vodka

Clip Source: www.wikihow.com

Buy a handle of vodka and a large bag of Skittles.

Separate the colors of Skittles that you want to flavor the vodka with. Many people choose to leave out the green (Lime)and purple (Grape), as they can make for a weird taste combination or a less than appealing color for the final product.

Remove the plastic pour guard in the bottle of vodka.

Pour some of the vodka into a glass in order to make room in the bottle for the candy.

Place the Skittles (20-25 per 350 mL) that you have picked out into the bottle, and let it sit for a day or two.

Strain out the Skittles using a filter or a clean t-shirt.

Enjoy in moderation.

recipe: Korean-style lettuce-chive salad

Lettuce and Chive Salad, Korean-Style

You need a lot of chives to make this: two or three normal bunches would probably do it. A better alternative would be to head to an Asian market, a Greenmarket or Chinatown and buy a bunch of the long flat chives known as garlic chives. A bunch of these will probably give you more than you need for this salad, but go ahead and use all of them.

2 tablespoons roasted sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon crushed red chili flakes, or to taste
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar or other mild vinegar
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon sugar
8 ounces fresh chives, at least a couple of large bunches
4 cups any tender lettuce or mixed lettuces
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds for garnish, optional.

o1 - Pick out your base. I used a magazine scan of Agyness Deyn. Crop it and prepare your base to your liking.

o2 - I then used a colour balance layer with these settings :
midtones : - 17 38 -12
shadows : 19 -36 -2
highlights : 0 -10 -26
preserve luminance checked on.

o3 - Then i used another colour balance layer with these settings :
midtones : 46 19 -33
shadows : 4 44 100
highlights : 14 24 50
preserve luminance checked on.

o4 - Next, i applied a curves layer with these settings :
RGB
Point 1 : 86 | 105

Point 2 : 142 | 180

Green
Point 1 : 105 | 82

Point 2 : 177 | 197

o5 -

I decided it was too yellow & shiney & bright for my taste, and then duplicated the background layer & set it to Darken, with a 39% opacity. This smoothes out & tones down the color on Miss Deyn's face.

Here in Hampton we had great looking clouds just before the storm hit. However, that was about it, we received just a taste of the storm.

My husband works just outside of downtown Norfolk, on TRANT & Va Beach Blvd. Contractors Paving. They had hail and just a real bad storm. It's easing there now as well but just wanted to inform you. He is suppose to call, but I don't know if he was successful.

Hibiscus Flower Margaritas Recipe

Old Man Long Beans

Drunken Cherries

a funky little Caribbean sugar shack kind of place caught my attention -- Little Baobab

The drink menu was a lot of fun. I fell into a bit of a rut with my first choice which was a hibiscus margarita. I drank two (or was it three?) of them. They smelled floral and sweet, but full of berries all at the same time. I got mine on ice as opposed to blended, and the color was a beautiful pomegranate shade which added to its irresistibility.

Hibiscus Flower Margarita Recipe

1 cup dried hibiscus flowers
1 cup sugar
4 cups water
1 cup+ tequila

Then I let it simmer for 10 or 15 minutes. Strained through cheesecloth, and put the hibiscus water in the fridge to cool.

To serve I added the tequila (to taste). I then mixed and poured over ice. You want to be able to taste the hibiscus, and you don't wan't it too sweet. You may want to add a bit of water if it is too sweet or strong.

People are always looking for the "best", explaining why, we have a best coffee makers section. But, what is the best? Individuals have different demands, different taste profile and as the saying goes 'one man food might be another man poison'. How then, did I come out with the best? Simple, I look for the biggest brands with their best make of machines available in the market (my logic is if they are this big, they must be good in some aspects to have so many people using them) and review on their strengths. There would be articles on:

There would be a section on vacuum coffee maker. This is really a personal preference because I find them so "ancient". They have a physic law behind the extraction of that good cup of coffee, then it looks extremely cool in the living room. Oh, and it has its rightful place in the history of coffee, so do take a look if you are serious in coffee making and next time, someone talk about it, go ahead and impress them with the knowledge you garnered here!

With that, let's talk about everyone's favorite Lady Marmalade, Christina Aguilera. Yup, X-Tina. Not someone you'd expect mentioned over here on the blog, I agree, but we can't ignore good taste. Last week's People's Magazine....

Yup, right amongst the exclusive scoop of Christina's nursery, above a little playpen of sorts, is the Gallery 1988 Misha "Last Supper" print! What a beautiful image for the baby to see everyday, right? And yes, the calls and emails have been a bit insane! I actually got a phone call about the print, right as I was in mid-type. The initial print run of 50 has been sold out for quite some time, but get ready for the 2nd edition...which we're dubbing "The Genie in a Baby Room Edition!"

This print comes unframed

This is just a pre order, as they will not ship for a little over a month, but with the amount of phone calls and emails we're getting - you might want to jump aboard now. You can call us at 323-937-7088 or email us at gallery1988@aol.com to order.

Madonna Peddles Obamunist Kool-Aid

Mon, 25 Aug 2008 14:55:41 GMT

Clip Source: moonbattery.com

The Obamessiah has picked up yet another endorsement that would make a serious candidate cringe with shame.

Madonna, has been broadcasting her Obamunist views — or rather, pandering to what she thinks will appeal to fans two generations younger than herself — with her usual taste and subtlety:

Amid a four-act show at Cardiff's packed Millennium Stadium, a video interlude carried images of destruction, global warming, Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler, Zimbabwe's authoritarian President Robert Mugabe — and U.S. Senator John McCain. Another sequence, shown later, pictured slain Beatle John Lennon, followed by climate activist Al Gore, Mahatma Gandhi and finally McCain's Democratic rival Barack Obama.

Ironically, race-obsessed socialists Hitler and Mugabe have much more in common with Obama than McCain. But the Wizard of Uhs does belong in the same lineup as fellow moonbats John Lenin and Al Snore.

This latest endorsement should give Obama a lock on the crucial postmenopausal prostitute vote.
