"CHEAT SHEETS" for web folk

To the garden variety teacher, cheat sheets are a bad thing... a very bad thing. But in the world of programming, languages, and scripts, they are a very good thing. As this blog says: "No matter how good  programmer you are, you can't memorize everything. It often happens to spend more time searching for a particular library, tag or declaration, than implementing it on our code."

I personally am NOT a programmer or coder. I am a retro-fitted designer (as is common with the art-directors of the late 80's and early 90's). This is a great collection of cheat sheets for folks like me as well as the hard-core I.T. guy.

RICE MILK FOR THE MASSES

In various discussions over time, it has come to my attention that a huge number of people cannot drink dairy milk. Whether lactose-intolerance, true allergy, or a variety of other contributing factors that have come to light, many folks cannot have milk any more.

Like many, I have also used (and many friends continue to use) products like Silk (a soybean milk that works well overall--is very popular due to the removal of some of the soy flavor that usually lingers in lower-priced brands). There are still some that cannot use soy-milks due to sensitivities (phyto-estrogens, and for some it reduces the absorption of other meds). 

In all honesty, I personally still indulge in the occasional milk product, and usually deal with the 'consequences' over time. But for day-to-day use, I usually consume rice milk. There is an inexpensive, lesser-name brand product sold  through Woodman's that we have used for years. It isn't something that tastes particularly great on its own, but works over cereal in the morning after being chilled thoroughly.

I have recently discovered, through other's blogs and sites, the ABSOLUTE EASE of making rice milk at home, for PENNIES on the dollar at that. There are two recipes that I modify slightly, and a video from a YOUTUBE contributor that can help you through it all.

I add vanilla, a bit of cinnamon, and about a third of the honey or half of the rice/agave syrup sweetener they use in these.
