LHS Episode #176: Lowering Property Values
We're back with another episode of Linux in the Ham Shack. In this episode, we discuss House Resolution 1301 (again), which has finally made it's way through that half of Congress. We also tackle a military-amateur crossover event, lunar satellites, text editors, office suites, Richard Stallman's brain, fancy Linux distributions and a completely made up scoring system for distro ham readiness. Thanks as always for tuning in. We hope you enjoy.

Segment 5 (Cheryl’s Recipe Corner)
Ravioli Meatball Bake
Description
In a new turn of events, we are going to test out each recipe for dinner prior to the show… so tonight we “trialed” tonight’s recipe… which is Ravioli and Meatball bake. Prior to the show, Russ gave it a thumbs-up.
Ingredients
1 (26 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
24 meatballs, thawed, cut into quarters
1 (24 ounce) package frozen cheese ravioli
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Directions
Spray a 13x9 glass baking pan with cooking spray. Place a shallow layer of spaghetti sauce in the bottom of the pan. Place a layer of meatballs in the bottom of the pan, place a layer of ravioli on top of that. Then a layer of spaghetti sauce, then a layer of meatballs, then a layer of sauce. Repeat with meatballs, then ravioli, then sauce. Cover everything with another layer of sauce and sprinkle cheese over the top. Cover with foil. Bake in a preheated 350 oven for 45 minutes or until cheese melts. Garnish with basil; serve.
