Would you dare to share the art, please. A delicious cheese sauce could have infinite uses. Absolutely and you a right a good cheese sauce can be very versatile and can enhance most meals. You will have to experiment a little to get the right consistency that suits you. I generally use a good mature Cheddar and I sometimes mix in a Swiss Cheese like Gruyere. You can use any Cheese that suitably melts but you obviously can't use Cheese like Halloumi as it won't melt. Make sure all the Cheese you will use is grated The recipe is based on the standard white sauce recipe and once you have made it a few times it will become easy Heat a small pot on medium heat Use 1 Tablespoon of Butter and let Butter melt but don't burn it Add 1 Tablespoon of flour to pot Whisk the flour and butter for about 2-3 minutes. You want to allow the flour to be properly integrated into the butter Start pouring in milk slowly and whisking. Don't pour all the milk in one go, pour and whisk.,,,pour and whisk You'll notice the sauce almost immediately starts thickening as the milk is added. This is fine. Just add the mild slowly until the sauce is not liquid but slightly thick Then start adding the Cheese in batches and whisk The sauce should thicken nicely I add Mustard Powder, Paprika and White Pepper to flavour but you can add any spice that suits you what you got there is pretty much the classic welsh rarebit cheese mix... save that dark beer is used instead o' whiskey. add dollop o' dijon mustard and worcestershire. we would also recommend cream or half & half 'stead of milk... if you got it. HA! Good Fun! Wait, I don't think whiskey is the same thing as whisking. Although I do have a fantastic dark ale that was brewed with pecans, wheat and rye, with one quarter aged in bourbon barrels. I love the idea of using half & half, too, even though I already drink gallons of whole milk all the time. I love dairy, which is why I'm curious about a versatile cheese sauce, thank you for sharing. Yes you are correct, I did mean whisking as in the movement with the hand and not the alcoholic beverage

Almost a quarter of men 'admit to rape in parts of Asia'
BruceVC replied to Walsingham's topic in Way Off-Topic
How big of a problem is it, actually? I'm curious about over-representation in the media as well. There was an ad campaign in Edmonton that was posters that would say "Don't be that guy" with messaging along how if she is too drunk to consent, it's not okay. A Men's Rights group put up posters with similar imagery, pointing out "Don't be that girl" with messaging about how just because you regret it doesn't mean you're consensual. It's also interesting because the Steubenville case, as well as one in Nova Scotia (which ultimately ended with the girl killing herself) did not really give me the impression that men are seen as guilty from the get go. In both situations I think there was a lot of support for the young men and in the case of the Nova Scotia girl, plenty of "**** shaming" as news of her exploits went around. I think part of the problem for this is that people over state the notion of "cry rape because you regret it" and in these cases, so there's still incidents of "women are vindictive." A large problem, in that even if it doesn't happen very much, definitely ARE situations where women falsely cry wolf. Some overly inebriated women (3 of them) in Edmonton wanted to take a taxi, and when they were belligerent the taxi driver kicked them out of the cab. In response, they started accusing him of touching them and called the police on him. Fortunately, the cab driver had it all on video and no charges were laid, but man oh man did those women ever do something that is very serious and should never be done because it only undermines the capabilities of legitimate victims to seek help. Was so frustrating. I am worried, however, that these incidents while rare get great exposure, leading them to happen more often than not. Especially among later teens and young adults, however, I definitely get the impression that a lot of people feel that rape accusations come from women with regrets/vindictiveness, rather than actual victims. I don't know if this is a fair interpretation based on actual behaviour, but my gut tells me that it's probably not. You make some good points on a relevant topic, the issue I have is with peoples perspective is what you raised. There are cases of men being raped and women crying wolf or being vindictive. But these are very small compared to the actual and continued rape of women by men. In South Africa we have a real problem around rape. We had 64,000 reported cases of rape last year but apparently only 1 in 6 women report the act. So we talking about nearly 400,000 rape incidents a year. That's 1000 per day !!!! And I can guarantee that all these rapes are not women making it up or being bitter about some man treating them badly -

Shame Lexx, how did you get over it? What did your family and friends say...I assume they believed you? -
Of course the haven't, silly. They don't want to jeopardize their console sales. People would just wait longer then. Rockstar usually always announces a PC SKU months later, after the console versions have shipped and sold 10 trillion copies. That could be a valid reason and makes sales sense

Its amazing how we can differ on certain games but have similar views on others. I loved LA Noire and GTA4. My only complaint about LA Noire is that there weren't enough incentives to explore the city and I enjoyed there rendition of LA in the 1940's

I'm working on a technology roadmap presentation for one of my large customers tomorrow. The software I support has some really exciting new features coming down in the next release so it should be interesting and relevant for this customer

We'll have to agree to disagree around whether Russia's attempts to broker a peaceful solution make sense in regard to Syria. It may seem like I am flip-flopping on the armed intervention in Syria but I have followed many new perspectives and I fail to see how at least allowing the Russians to get Assad to destroy his Chemical weapons is a bad idea?

Peopel from different cultures can have diffeent views? How is that surprising? Also, rape IS about sex. TI's the entire point. If rape was just about power, than anyone who is abusing his power over you is raping you. Rape in almost all cases is not about sex and anyone who has spent just a little time researching the reasons behind it would be aware of that. Consider this a free education Trashman. And they say you can't learn anything on the gaming forum http://www.articlesbase.com/womens-issues-articles/rape-is-about-power-control-and-anger-not-sex-1345819.html http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/aug/29/rape-about-power-not-sex http://www.rediff.com/news/column/rape-is-about-power-learn-to-wield-it-to-fight-rape/20130823.htm -

I don't understand your skiing analogy in relation to rape? Can you explain it in normal English Also I don't see how you can have different definitions of rape and how the Asians cannot believe what we believe as far as what is acceptable. Rape is not actually about the sex, its mostly about power and the thought of power over women. That doesn't change irrespective of where you live. -
I read this letter and I'm very impressed. I have never known Putin to be so diplomatic, he really is reaching out to explain the Russian position in a way that is not pugnacious. I also respect Obama for taking into account the Russian attempts to broker peace. For me this letter is important as we can finally see what the Russians are thinking and its not unreasonable. The funny thing is they have opinions on Syria that many people on these forums share, like the danger of helping the rebels due to the Islamic fundamentalists. Anyway we need to give this initiative a chance to get the Syrians to disarm there Chemical weapons. It does seem the right thing to do under the circumstances

I still don't get the funny part, what she is saying makes perfect sense to me. She is saying that if you never force yourself on someone for sex then the reward from that will be a gift. She is speaking metaphorically but it is still correct -

Just concerned about social justice that's all. "You might not think it now, but making sure the sex you are involved in always involves complete consent will be the best gift you can give your future self" is laughable though, the best gift, heh. Explain why you think that consensual sex is something that we should be laughing at? -

Syria won't fight Israel under pretty much any circumstances. They'd lose, badly, even if they weren't fighting a civil war as well, plus it would guarantee US intervention, even if you had a neo isolationist (Rand Paul? so practically unlikely) as President. You can make a nice parallel between Israel's 'theoretical' nuclear stockpile and Syria's 'theoretical' stockpile though-since they both exist for the same reason (if we look like losing a war we'll nuke Damascus/ if we look like losing a war we'll gas Tel Aviv), are both undeclared, both 'illegal', both never been used (r00fles!) etc. Thought he meant my statement on Israel's nuclear weapons. Guessing that if the US stopped caring about Israel, any future war probably would be with Syria if any state were to. No I meant it was a conspiracy theory that Syria would attempt to seriously attack Israel

After this US government suddenly become peacefull. Funny how Syria is some kind of Bizarro Israel for these countries. Interesting point but I question if Russia and China will go to war over a Western intervention in Syria. I would be very surprised

Mmmm, that is an interesting view but the article for me talks about the word "yes" as being what is important . In other words if a very drunk girl says " yes lets have sex" then the next day says she was raped the guy shouldn't be charged. But we also need to use our common sense. In all my years of partying myself and anyone I know have known has never been accused of rape as it is obvious when it is appropriate to proceed to the next level of the physical relationship. So I don't see the law as unreasonable or someone effecting our ability to have sex whether we are drunk or not? -

This is a very well written and relevant article concerning this topic. Nice one -
Would be interesting to see, I guess only Syria might try tangling with Israel. Or Israel decides to use those nukes it denies having. Malc I thought we agreed you would stop believing these conspiracy theories

I do believe it, that's not the issue but the perspective it creates for the rebels. It will be seen by most as a representation of the entire rebel movement and enforce GD point about the reasons for not going into Syria. And obviously I disagree with that But look, hold on. You will concede that it is at least possible that the rebels are pretty well all Qaeda fundis. Does that change our response? Unfortunately I won't concede that as then I would be forced to sadly fall into the camp opposed to intervention as helping Al-Qaeda is worse than Assad staying in power. I obviously reject that view as it can't proven and doesn't make sense
