The batter has garlic salt, dill, romano cheese, and habernero sauce. The white dipping sauce is: mayo, sour cream, horseradish, lime juice, salt. pepper, cayenne and chives from my yard. The pinkish sauce is: tahini, hummus, mesquite seasoning, lime juice and oregano from my yard. The stuff in the middle is pico de gallo Adrian made last night. - Anika

@Chris Gulker. Someday I hope to work with a photo editor. God knows I need to. I like to think of my Flickrstream today more as the raw material in a lot of ways for future projects. A good photo editor adds tremendous value to shaping a photographer's imagery. - Thomas Hawk

Hmm, agree, could be better news - Pete Gilbert

1. The first thing I noticed was at times I'd use the wrong word for something--in particular nouns. For instance, I'd call a "hat" a "helmet" or the trunk of a car the "back yard." This didn't happen all the time. We figured it was an odd permutation of chemo brain. - Loren Heiny

I am also realizing now that I don't do well with filling out forms, no matter how simple they are--especially if it's something that's important and not routine. I think it has to do with the "planning" involved. Not sure. I've had this problem for the last year or so, but now I'm realizing it's still with me. I'm guessing it's because I can't balance in my head all the repercussions... more... - Loren Heiny

"Many experts will say that to fully oxygenate the muscles and clear the body of carbon dioxide you should breathe a 3:2 inhale-to-exhale ratio; full inhales and full exhales. This means you INHALE on the LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT foot strikes and EXHALE fully on the RIGHT, LEFT foot strikes. This pattern is not that hard to turn into a habit, but it may require you to slow your pace down for a few runs to master the technique. You will notice a lower heart rate as you are able to get more oxygen in and more importantly push all the carbon dioxide out of your body. You may notice that you naturally drop to a 2:1 ratio when you are really pushing it to the finish. That is OK. But realize it is difficult to maintain a pace that requires you to breathe at a 2:1 ratio." - Wang Yip from Bookmarklet

Question for runners: is this article saying to breathe out on your right foot striking? I've always heard that you should breathe out when your left foot strikes - Wang Yip

I'm not a runner but I understand it this way: Each inhale+exhale cycle takes 5 steps, 3 for inhale and 2 for exhale. Since it's an odd number the pattern will alternate with exhaling starting on the right for one cycle and on the left for the next. - Fred Yankowski

"Scientists from Scotland and Singapore have unraveled a mystery that has perplexed scientists since red wine was first discovered to have health benefits: how does resveratrol control inflammation? New research published in the August 2009 print issue of The FASEB Journal, not only explains resveratrol's one-two punch on inflammation, but also show how it—or a derivative—can be used to treat potentially deadly inflammatory disease, such as appendicitis, peritonitis, and systemic sepsis." - Tudor Bosman from Bookmarklet

"It's an excellent lightweight program, handles just about every kind of disc-related task imaginable, and it's totally free. Version 2.5 boasts a big list of additions, changes, and bugfixes, though the core functionality remains the same. It still burns discs and creates images as well as any program out there (if not better). ImgBurn can also run as a portable app, perfect for carrying on your USB flash drive for burning on the go." - LANjackal from Bookmarklet

ImgBurn is awesome. - Tim Hoeck

Windows 7: The Best Vista Service Pack Ever While I haven't been unhappy with Windows Vista, it had a lot of rough edges: This is why the screenshot of the Windows 7 Calculator, although seemingly trivial, is so exciting to me. It's evidence that Microsoft is going to pay attention to the visible parts of the operating system this time around. I'm a fan of Vista, despite all the nerd rage on the topic, but I'll be the first to admit that Vista had all the polish of a particularly dull rock. Let's just say the overall user experience was.. uninspiring. This led many people to shrug, sigh "why bother?", and stick with crusty old XP. Vista was like a solid B student who shows up at your doorstep reeking of body odor and dressed in shabby clothing from the local thrift shop. There's something decent at the core, but it's a real challenge to get past the obvious surface deficiencies. Thus, I've been following the development of Windows 7 with cautious optimism. It's important to me not... - Bwana ☠

"The Michael Jackson memorial is over, but the debate over the estimated bill to the city of nearly $4 million continues to rage. Newly elected Los Angeles City Atty. Carmen Trutanich told the City Council he was investigating how the city ended up on the hook for police costs surrounding the memorial. He assured the council that his new management team was going to find out how the city got into the position of providing support for the event and how it could recoup some of the money. His staff also is researching legislation “so we won’t be caught in this lurch again,” he said. City sources had estimated the cost of policing and other city services at $3.8 million, though officials are still tabulating the final costs. Far fewer fans than expected converged on downtown Los Angeles for the memorial than expected, and the LAPD decided to let about 1,000 officers go home early." - Thomas Hawk from Bookmarklet

personally I think that they just should have put a charge on the tickets and let those who attended the memorial service foot the bill. If the family then felt that it was important that the event be free then they could have agreed to pick up the charge. If they wanted to invite 9,000 of their closest friends and family then they should pay for the cost of putting together the public safety portions of the event. Just my two cents. - Thomas Hawk

It's fun to watch all the reactions around the web regarding Google's announcement of Chrome OS.   One area of technology that tickles the argument bone is operating systems.  Google has thrown a monkey wrench in the harmonious Mac OS X vs Windows vs Linux argument.  A cloud OS?  It's forcing all of us to think different.  Me?  I'm taking a wait and see approach as usual.  Everything now would be pure speculation.  Although I will say, if Google Wave is any indication of where Google is going, Microsoft, Apple and Linux community better be on their toes.

Indeed. The future is "Social" and OSes have, so far, been lacking in that department. Not surprised Google is the one to change that. - vijay
