I figured if we're going to be snowed in for the rest of our lives like the news is saying, we'd better have something delicious. These are delicious. Fudgy brownies, tangy cream cheese, I could have eaten three. Or six.
They're good for a snowy night.
Cheesecake brownies
My favorite brownie recipe, plus a cream cheese topping.
4 oz unsweetened chocolate
3/4 stick butter
1 3/4 c sugar
3 eggs
1 t vanilla
1 c rice flour mix
1/4 t xanthan gum
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 egg yolk
1/3 c sugar
Preheat oven to 325. Lightly grease an 8x8 pan. Melt the chocolate in the microwave with the butter. Mix in the sugar, eggs and vanilla. Stir in rice flour and xanthan gum. Spread the batter in the pan. In a clean bowl, mash together the cream cheese, egg yolk, and sugar. Keep stirring until smooth, then plop in three thick lines across the batter. Swirl around with a knife. Bake for about 45 minutes, until the center isn't jiggley. Cool completely before cutting.

The mod_wsgi package provides an Apache module that implements a WSGI compliant interface for hosting Python based web applications on top of the Apache web server.
Installation of mod_wsgi can now be performed in one of two ways.
The first way of installing mod_wsgi is the traditional way that has been used in the past, where it is installed as a module directly into your Apache installation.
The second and newest way of installing mod_wsgi is to install it as a Python package into your Python installation.
This new way of installing mod_wsgi will compile not only the Apache module for mod_wsgi, but will also install a set of Python modules and an admin script for running up Apache directly from the command line with an auto generated configuration.
This later mechanism for running up Apache, which is referred to as the mod_wsgi express version, provides a much simpler way of getting starting with hosting your Python web application.
In particular, the new installation method makes it very easy to use Apache/mod_wsgi in a development environment without the need to perform any Apache configuration yourself.
System Requirements
With either installation method for mod_wsgi, you obviously must have Apache installed.
If running Linux, any corresponding developer variant of the specific Apache package you are using also needs to be installed. This is required in order to be able to compile mod_wsgi from source code.
For example, on Ubuntu Linux with Apache 2.2, if you were using the Apache prefork MPM you would need both:
- apache2-mpm-prefork
- apache2-prefork-dev
If instead you were using the Apache worker MPM, you would need both:
- apache2-mpm-worker
- apache2-threaded-dev
In general it is recommend you use the Apache worker MPM where you have a choice, although mod_wsgi will work with both, as well as the event and ITK MPM, plus winnt MPM on Windows.
If you are running MacOS X, the Apache server and required developer files for compiling mod_wsgi are already present.
Installation into Apache
For installation directly into your Apache installation, see the full documentation at:
Also see the documentation if wishing to use mod_wsgi on Windows as the method of installing direct into your Python installation will not work on Windows.
Installation into Python
To install the mod_wsgi express version directly into your Python installation, from within the source directory of the mod_wsgi package you can run::
python setup.py install
This will compile mod_wsgi and install the resulting package into your Python installation.
If wishing to install an official release direct from PyPi, you can instead run::
pip install mod_wsgi
If you wish to use a version of Apache which is installed into a non
standard location, you can set and export the
APXS environment variable
to the location of the Apache
apxs script for your Apache installation
before performing the installation.
Note that nothing will be copied into your Apache installation at this point. As a result, you do not need to run this as the root user unless installing it into a site wide Python installation rather than a Python virtual environment.
To verify that the installation was successful, run the
script with the
start-server command::
mod_wsgi-express start-server
This will start up Apache/mod_wsgi on port 8000. You can then verify that the installation worked by pointing your browser at::
When started in this way, the Apache web server will stay in the foreground. To stop the Apache server, use CTRL-C.
For a simple WSGI application contained in a WSGI script file called
wsgi.py, in the current directory, you can now run::
mod_wsgi-express start-server wsgi.py
This instance of the Apache web server will be completely independent of, and will not interfere with any existing instance of Apache you may have running on port 80.
If you already have another web server running on port 8000, you can
override the port to be used using the
--port option::
mod_wsgi-express start-server wsgi.py --port 8001
For a complete list of options you can run::
mod_wsgi-express start-server --help
Further information on using the mod_wsgi express version see the main mod_wsgi documentation.
Non standard Apache installations
Many Linux distributions have a tendency to screw around with the standard
Apache Software Foundation layout for installation of Apache. This can
include renaming the Apache
httpd executable to something else, and in
addition to potentially renaming it, replacing the original binary with a
shell script which performs additional actions which can only be performed
as the
root user.
In the case of the
httpd executable simply being renamed, the
executable will obviously not be found and mod_wsgi express will fail to
start at all.
In this case you should work out what the
httpd executable was renamed
to and use the
--httpd-executable option to specify its real location.
For example, if
httpd was renamed to
apache2, you might need to use::
mod_wsgi-express start-server wsgi.py --httpd-executable=/usr/sbin/apache2
In the case of the
httpd executable being replaced with a shell script
which performs additional actions before then executing the original
httpd executable, and the shell script is failing in some way, you will
need to use the location of the original
httpd executable the shell
script is in turn executing.
Running mod_wsgi express as root
The primary intention of mod_wsgi express is to make it easier for users
to run up Apache on non privileged ports, especially during the development
of a Python web application. If you want to be able to run Apache using
mod_wsgi express on a privileged port such as the standard port 80 used by
HTTP servers, then you will need to run
mod_wsgi-express as root. In
doing this, you will need to perform additional steps.
The first thing you must do is supply the
--user and
options to say what user and group your Python web application should run
as. Most Linux distributions will pre define a special user for Apache to
run as, so you can use that. Alternatively you can use any other special
user account you have created for running the Python web application::
mod_wsgi-express start-server wsgi.py --port=80 \
--user www-data --group www-data
This approach to running
mod_wsgi-express will be fine so long as you
are using a process supervisor which expects the started process to remain
in the foreground and not daemonize.
If however you are directly integrating into the system init scripts where separate start and stop commands are expected, with the executing process expected to be daemonized, then a different process is required to setup mod_wsgi express.
In this case, instead of simply using the
start-server command to
mod_wsgi-express you should use
mod_wsgi-express setup-server wsgi.py --port=80 \
--user www-data --group www-data \
In running this command, it will not actually startup Apache. All it will do is create the set of configuration files and startup script to be run.
So that these are not created in the default location of a directory under
/tmp, you should use the
--server-root option to specify where they
should be placed.
Having created the configuration and startup script, to start the Apache instance you can now run::
/etc/mod_wsgi-express-80/apachectl start
To subsequently stop the Apache instance you can run::
/etc/mod_wsgi-express-80/apachectl stop
You can also restart the Apache instance as necessary using::
/etc/mod_wsgi-express-80/apachectl restart
Using this approach, the original options you supplied to
will effectively be cached with the resulting configuration used each time.
If you need to update the set of options, run
setup-server again with
the new set of options.
Note that even taking all these steps, it is possible that running up
Apache as
root using mod_wsgi express may fail on systems where SELinux
extensions are enabled. This is because the SELinux profile may not match
what is being expected for the way that Apache is being started, or
alternatively, the locations that Apache has been specified as being
allowed to access, don't match where the directory specified using the
--server-root directory was placed. You may therefore need to configure
SELinux or move the directory used with
--server-root to an allowed

Waldorf-Astoria Hotel Installs Bee Hives On Roof
NEW YORK — New York City's Waldorf-Astoria Hotel is buzzing with thousands of tiny new visitors.
The luxury hotel has installed six beehives on its rooftop with the goal of harvesting honey by mid-summer. One mature hive has 20,000 bees and five starter hives have 5,000 bees each.
By August, the hotel hopes to host 300,000 bees in total.
The bees arrived last week in a luxury car. Then they were escorted through the lobby to their new home on the 20th floor.
Guests at the historic hotel can tour the hives. The insects also are visible from certain rooms.
Honey will be used in dishes served at the hotel's restaurant.
Members of the public can help the hotel name the hives in a social media contest.

SAMARRA, Iraq, June 15 (UPI) -- Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki on Saturday ordered troops to protect the city of Samarra from Sunni militants.
Just a few days after militants from the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria -- an al-Qaida-linked group known as ISIS -- took control of the country's second-largest city, Mosul, the prime minister ordered troops to make a stand in Samarra and protect its religious shrines and mosques.
Samarra is located about 83 miles north of the capital of Baghdad.
"Samarra will be the starting point, the gathering station of our troops to cleanse every inch that was desecrated by footsteps of those traitors," al-Maliki said.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Department of Defense sent aircraft carrier USS George H.W. Bush to the Persian Gulf on Saturday.
The move gives U.S. President Barack Obama "additional flexibility should military options be required to protect American lives, citizens and interests in Iraq," Pentagon press secretary Rear Adm. John Kirby said in a statement Saturday.
Though the Iraqi military says it has regained control of most of Salaheddin province, a Twitter account purported to be linked with ISIS shows militant fighters brutally executing dozens of men in the province.
The account was suspended by Twitter.

While we were at the beach, there was lots to do in the water. The kids were jumping waves, body surfing, riding waves in inner tubes and boogie boarding.
Even the youngest in our family (Anna Claire, not quite 2 years) had fun. She started on land, climbing in and out of the tube. It would take her forever to climb over, and as soon as she was in, she'd begin to climb back out again.
She soon discovered that riding the waves in the tube was just as much fun as climbing in and out!
Most of the younger kids enjoyed being pulled or pushed through the waves by the adults.
The big kids loved the tube, too!
Splashing in the waves was great fun, and a fantastic sensory experience for the little ones. I especially enjoyed holding Anna Claire's hand as the surf rushed back out to sea. Her little face was a mixture of expressions as the sand filtered out from underneath her feet. Jumping the waves is a time honored tradition in our family. It's pretty cool to stand in the waves and hold our children's hands, just like our parents did with us.
Body surfing and boogie boarding were popular activities every day. It was great exercise and a whole lot of fun!
The kids seemed to form pods out in the ocean while waiting for waves. There is a line from the Patrick Swayze movie "Point Break" that kept running through my head: "Look at 'em. They look like some sort of tribe." And from where I was sitting on the beach, they did look like a tribe!
Look for more highlights of our Beach Blast coming soon under the tag, Beach Bummin'.
Thanks for visiting! Be sure to leave a little "comment love"---I'd love for you to share your thoughts!

Have you recently purchased or looking to purchase a new Suzuki motorcycle or ATV? If so, Suzuki is a great choice. The quality, performance and durability of the products we offer are second to none. While Suzuki's production techniques and materials, as well as its standard warranties, are the best, today's motorcycles and ATVs have become increasingly complex. In addition, parts and repair costs have accelerated as quickly as the technology itself. While mechanical failures are rare in today's Suzuki models, you can protect yourself from potentially high costs for years after your standard warranty runs out by investing in an extended protection plan.
The Suzuki Protection Plan (SPP) can be added at any time during the Suzuki's Limited Warranty period, so don't wait! You can purchase an SPP from any authorized Suzuki dealer in Canada. If purchased at the time of sale, the SPP works in conjunction to your Suzuki Limited Warranty (giving you additional benefits), and will continue to provide you top-quality protection for years to come after the Limited Suzuki Warranty period had ended. Along with providing complete peace of mind, the SPP is economical, dependable and hassle-free. Should you experience an issue while covered by the plan, you can visit any authorized Suzuki dealer in Canada and the U.S. for prompt resolution and professional service.
Should you have any questions or wish to obtain further details, please visit your local Suzuki Dealer for assistance.
SUZUKI. Way of Life!

If you were a teenage boy in the 1970s, you remember Farrah's red swimsuit.
Now the suit, relatively modest by today's standards, that the "Charlie's Angels" sex symbol wore in an iconic poster is ticketed for immortality in the Smithsonian Institute.
The star, who died of cancer at age 62 in 2009, posed for the best-selling poster with her head tipped back and her blonde tresses spilling over her shoulders. Longtime lover Ryan O'Neal will donate the suit to the museum of Americana next week. It will be part of a pop culture exhibit.
U.S. & World
Farrah Fawcett was 29 when she posed for the poster, and was known mainly for appearing in commercials for Noxzema and Wella Balsam shampoo. The poster sold a reported 12 million copies, and a year later, she was cast as Jill Munroe in the popular TV show.
Photographer Bruce McBroom, who shot the famous photo, told Entertainment Weekly in 2009 how the picture came about.
"I was running out of ideas and I was getting desperate," McBroom recalled. "I said, "You know how you look best. Is there anything else that you've got that we haven't shot?
"So she said, "Lemme go look around." She comes to the door and she's standing in the doorway in that red suit. And she said, "What do you think of this?" It was like it was spray painted on her; I don't think it was a swimsuit. I said, "You know what? That's it!"
