Finish cooking spaghetti in the sauce. I never thought of that. Gotta try it. Yum!


Just take it out about five minutes earlier than normal and mix it really good with the sauce. If it is an oil-based sauce like the one above, put a bit of pasta water in there...just a tablespoon or two. The spaghetti will absorb more liquid which will now be tasty sauce.

I've never tried it with thick tomato or meat sauces. Those tend to have less liquid and the pasta might dry it out to much. Plus they tend to be really powerfully flavored and you might lose all the pasta flavor.

The main opposition party actually has three seats more in parliament than the new main governing party after the switcharoo. Remains to be seen how long Denmark's first female prime minister remains in office.

Well, she is offering an extra 12 minutes of work per day per worker as part of her platform. That should fix everything

I feel your frustration T. While politicians only work to short term objectives, based around a short news cycle, the West will never again see the rise of a great statesman or a government that leaves a genuine legacy. Being in Europe does not help - a large proportion of our population want out, but none of the parties dare give us a referendum on the subject, despite election promises...

Hiya Odin,

How's the Kendo going for you? Still enjoying it?

FWIW, I'll be competing in a Tang Soo Do tournament this weekend in N. Minnesota. Weapons (Bo), forms and sparring. Should be fun.

Hey, well i am still enjoying it but i wasn´t able to buy me the correct clothes till today, i am still training in normal training clothes, which let me look like a bloody first week beginner

The problem is i am a bit too fat for my height...usually, the clothes are long enough, but not enough room for my paunch(?) f.e.

As long i dind´t have Kakama and Gi, it is useless to think about armor...i hope i have them when i have my next Exam in December (5.Kyo)

Did you tell me what Tang Soo Do is??

Can´t remember yet, please help!;-)

Well, if he WAS trading in make-up products then it would be kinda surprising. If, on the other hand, he was a ROGUE trader, then these sorts of figures are not at all unheard of.

He lost it "gambling" with the bank's money. Unauthorized trades that are way riskier than the bank would allow, and then more of them, trying to "win" back what was already lost.

Did you tell me what Tang Soo Do is??

It's one of three traditional Korean Karate styles. Kind of 'old school'-more typical karate style than, say, the better known Tae Kwon Do. The latter is kick and leg-heavy, minimizing the more balanced hands activity.

Apparently he gambled bank's money on Swiss Franc rise... the Swiss Franc was rising like a meteor for long time but then Swiss National Bank administratively limited Swiss Franc value and it dropped immediately to much lower value...


BTW, nice article here (yu can also see how the bloke looks like):
