Choosing the right law firm is one of the most important decisions any victim of an accident or disaster can make. The results can depend greatly on whether your lawyer is experienced, aggressive and focused on your needs.
At Redmann Law in Metairie, Louisiana, our objective is to prove to clients that they have found the best law firm in the state. When hard-nosed insurance companies stand between our clients and the resources they need to rebuild their lives, we fight hard for justice and full compensation.
Metairie Car Accident Lawyers
Our legal team has recovered compensation for thousands of people injured by motor vehicle accidents. We work to ensure that clients are compensated for their medical bills, lost wages, lasting disability, and pain and suffering. Some law firms settle cases as quickly as possible, knowing the money will not cover the person's losses or future needs. Our experienced trial lawyers are not afraid to take negligent drivers and insurance companies to court, especially for serious or permanent injuries.
Personal Injury And Other Legal Advocacy
Redmann Law assists clients in many legal matters:
- Injury accidents — We pursue justice for anyone injured through the negligence of others, including slip-and-falls, dog bites, workplace accidents, child injuries and plane crashes.
- Medical malpractice — We hold doctors and hospitals accountable for serious harm from errors and carelessness, including surgery mistakes, birth injury and diagnosis errors.
- Dangerous products — Our product liability attorneys hold manufacturers responsible for injury or death from unsafe medical devices, workplace machinery or other products.
- Insurance claims — Our law office fights insurers that refuse, in bad faith, to pay valid claims after floods, hurricanes, fires, workplace accidents and other insured events.
- Class action/mass torts — When many individuals have suffered injury or economic loss, a class-action lawsuit against a large corporation provides a level playing field for justice.
- Legal malpractice — We have successfully sued attorneys for professional incompetence, laziness or misconduct that caused legal and financial harm to their clients.
- Immigration law — We assist U.S. citizens and foreign nationals seeking visas, green cards or waivers for themselves or family members, or those who need urgent legal help.

Join Carroll University, First United Presbyterian, and Southminster Presbyterian on the Lenten journey from the ashes of death to resurrected life begins on the first day of Lent, Ash Wednesday.
This first day of Lent reminds us that unless we are willing to die to our old selves, we cannot be raised to new life with Christ. The first step of this journey calls us to acknowledge and confront our mortality, individually and corporately. In many traditions, this is symbolized through the imposition of ashes—placing a cross of ashes on one's forehead. During the imposition of ashes the words: "You are dust, and to dust you shall return" (Gen. 3:19) are repeated again and again. We are to remember that we are but temporary creatures, always on the edge of death.
On Ash Wednesday, we begin our Lenten trek through the desert toward Easter. Ashes on the forehead is a sign of our humanity and a reminder of our mortality. Lent is not a mat-ter of being good, and wearing ashes is not to show off one's faith. The ashes are a reminder to us and our communities of our finite creatureliness. The ashes we wear on our Lenten journey symbolize the dust and broken debris of our lives as well as the reality that eventually each of us will die.
Trusting in the "accomplished fact" of Christ's resurrection, however, we listen for the word of God in the time-honored sto-ries of the church's Lenten journey. We follow Jesus into the wilderness, resist tempta-tion, fast, and proceed "on the way" to Jerusalem, and the cross. Our Lenten journey is one of "turning around", of changing directions from self-serving toward the self-giving way of the cross.

You exercise your body to stay physically in shape, so why shouldn't you exercise your brain to stay mentally fit? With these daily exercises you will learn how to flex your mind, improve your creativity and boost your memory. As with any exercise, repetition is necessary for you to see improvement, so pick your favorite exercises from our daily suggestions and repeat them as desired. Try to do some mentalrobics every single day!
verb :: To shift or turn from one side to the other, from the direct course, or from truth; to speak with equivocation; to shuffle; to quibble
"As regards your questions, however, I will not prevaricate nor deceive you, but will tell you without concealment all that the old man of the sea told me." --Homer
If you are ever stuck in a meeting or brainstorm session where people are out of ideas or unable to agree on an issue, ask this question to get people thinking differently:
What would your mother do in this situation?
Not only does this infuse some humor into the situation, but it usually makes people a little more agreeable and a little less judgmental. After all, it's not very polite to disparage someone's mother. By thinking about what your mother would do, you are also forcing yourself to think about alternate solutions which can help come up with interesting ideas.
Earlier we discussed the Link System for remembering lists. Let's practice with this list of 20 words. You may think it is impossible to learn a list of 20 words in only a few minutes, but if you follow the System, it will be easy. We have provided some example visualizations for you to use, however you will have better success if you make up your own. Spend at least 2 minutes visualizing each object and association and you should have no problem remembering the whole list.
Pen, Sun, Toast, Elephant, Telephone, Window, Mud, Hamburger, Cat, Bottle, Goat, Bed, Car, Book, Money, Calculator, Lipstick, Snowman, Skateboard, Thumb
Form a clear mental image of these links to connect the words, here are some examples:
1. A pen shooting out sunlight
2. The sun being so hot it toasts some bread
3. An elephant eating some toast
4. Talking on a little elephant instead of a phone
5. Throwing a telephone out a window and breaking it
6. Having mud completely covering your window
7. A hamburger covered with mud instead of ketchup
8. A hamburger made of cat instead of beef
9. A cat stuck inside a bottle
10. A goat eating a bottle
11. A goat sleeping in a bed
12. A bed strapped onto the top of a car
13. A giant book with wheels and a steering wheel
14. A book with money for pages
15. A calculator that spits out money
16. A woman rubbing a calculator on her lips
17. A snowman wearing lipstick
18. A snowman skateboarding
19. A skateboard shaped like a giant thumb
20. (if you want to link it into a circle) Using your thumb to sign your name
Now close your eyes and try to recall the entire list. See how easy it was? To prove the effectiveness of this technique, make up a different list and try to memorize it without using the link system. See how hard it is?

Chris Loria, Superintendent of Lake Shore Public Schools, posted a letter on the district website which discussed the district's efforts to keep students safe in the wake of the tragic shooting at a Connecticut elementary school today.
The following is the text of the letter posted on the district website:
Dear Lake Shore Families:
We want to express our sincere sympathy to the families who are impacted by the tragic event that happened in Connecticut. As a parent, grandparent, or educator there is nothing that shatters our confidence in our ability to keep our children and staff safe more than hearing about what has occurred in Newtown.
We know you are concerned about your child and their reaction to these events. Your child may ask questions about their safety at their local school building. Every school has safety protocols in place that are practiced every year with staff and students. The safety of our students and staff has always been a priority at Lake Shore. While we believe that we have a safe environment, this devastating event gives us pause. We continually review our practices and reinforce the measures that we currently have in place to protect our kids and the Lake Shore Family.
Right now, most of us are having a hard time wrapping our minds around the events that happened on Friday. It is important that adults recognize that tragic events like this can have an impact on our children. Please read the following page for tips on dealing with traumatic events. If you or your child needs assistance or counseling, please don't hesitate contact your school office or the Crisis Intervention Specialist at the Macomb Intermediate School District at 586-228-3439.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the families,
Chris Loria, Superintendent
Tips on dealing with traumatic events
Lake Shore also shared information to assist parents in discussing, and responding, to questions their children may have about the school shooting:
When reacting to a traumatic incident, a child may display behaviors such as the following:
- Emotional shock and at times an apparent lack of feelings, which serve to help the child detach from the pain of the moment;
- Regressive (immature) behaviors, such as needing to be rocked or held, difficulty separating from parents or significant others, needing to sleep in parent's bed or an apparent difficult completing tasks well within the child's ability level;
- Explosive emotions and acting out behavior that reflect the child's internal feelings of anger, terror, frustration and helplessness. Acting out may reflect insecurity and a way to seek control over a situation for which they have little or no control;
- Asking the same questions over and over, not because they do not understand the facts, but rather because the information is so hard to believe or accept. Repeated questions can help listeners determine if the child is responding to misinformation or the real trauma of the event.
In order to help your children we would like to give you some tips and tools for helping your student through this most difficult time:
It is important that you deal honestly and directly with their questions. Referring to death as going to sleep or passing away may result in confusion. It is appropriate that you use the word "death." Below are some suggestions that parents may find useful in helping your child:
- Be a good listener. Listen carefully for any misconceptions or distortions the child may have.
- Provide physical closeness. Spend extra time talking and being with your child.
- Encourage children to ask questions and to discuss, write or draw their feelings.
- Provide play and fun experiences to relieve tensions.
Should you have difficulty approaching this issue or if you would like additional information about talking to your children about death, the following websites may be helpful: www.tlcinstitute.org, www.aboutourkids.org or http://www.mentalhealth.samhsa.gov/publications/allpubs/Ca-0022/default.asp. You may also want to talk with the Macomb County Crisis Center's telephone crisis counselors at 586-307-9100. Counselors are available 24 hours a day and calls are confidential.
We encourage you to keep your child's school informed on how he/she is doing.

Tortoises at the Zoo:
Two females, Bella (250 lbs.) and Darwin (200 lbs.). Darwin can be identified by her bumpier shell. They are both 20 years old and can live over 150 years.
The Galapagos Islands off Ecuador. Some subspecies live on other various islands of the Galapagos archipelago.
Volcanic islands from semiarid lowlands to moist uplands. It spends the cooler part of the day in the lowlands, and the warmer part in the uplands where it swims and feeds on the lush plants that grow there.
Galapagos tortoises have a black, brown, or gray carapace that varies in shape from domed and rounded to saddle shaped. Each foot has five claws and no webbing. The saddle shape enables the tortoise to raise its long neck to graze on the higher parts of plants.
Up to 3.6 feet long weighing 330 to 440 lbs. Females will weigh around 350 lbs.
Lichens growing on its shell can give it a mottled appearance, but it is generally black, brown, or gray.
Sexual dimorphism:
Males are larger than the females
Diet in Zoo:
Hay, produce, fruit, melon for treats, strawberries, cactus, romaine lettuce, kale, collard and mustard greens
Diet in Wild:
Galapagos tortoise is herbivorous. It eats grasses, forbs (any herb that is not a grass), cacti and other succulents, sedges, fruits and leaves of bushes.
Breeding season/period:
January through August
Breeding habits:
The male begins sniffing the air for a female's scent. When he finds the scent he chases the female down and courts by intimidation. He rams her with the front of his shell until she draws in her legs and is immobilized. He then proceeds to mate with her.
Nesting is usually between June and December. The female lays around ten eggs in a nest, which she buries with her back legs. Incubation ranges from three to eight months. Newly hatched baby tortoises fend for themselves.
Over 100 years. The oldest living Galapagos tortoise was a about 152 years old.
They sleep under vegetation or overhanging rocks at night. When approached by Darwin's finches the tortoises stand erect on all four feet and let the finches groom their skin to get rid of ticks and other parasites. Their Spanish name is tortuga galapago.
Unique Behaviors:
The female tortoise has been known to return to the same nesting place each year. Galapagos tortoises tend to travel in groups on the same paths so often that the paths are literally carved into the earth.
Wild cats, dogs, rats, goats, and pigs (all introduced). Throughout the peak of maritime travel, pirates and merchant sailors slaughtered the tortoises for food until few remained.
IUCN Red List: Endangered. The tortoise is near extinction with 11 surviving subspecies

Rated 2 out of 5�by GrimmReaper00 Sizing needs to be more clear I'll need to exchange for a larger size since I had to basically guess the size of my ankle. May 15, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Piano man Amazing stability These have provided me great comfort and stability as I actively play soccer. I have very weak ankles after 20 years if soccer, but these allow me to play the game I love. I am on my fourth pair in four years. May 13, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Mac Amazing ankle brace !! Have bought every brace out there for my son-he has weak ankles and no brace is comfortable ! He wears this brace on both ankles !! May 6, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by JaxonM73 Good brace with a slight flaw Unfortunately I am kind of a connoisseur of ankle and knee braces, due to fallen arches and a torn ACL left knee. I've been a BeachBody enthusiast since 2007, with a growing library of workouts including P90X, Insanity and Les Mill's Pump. So when I need a brace of any kind, I need one that can hold me through an hour of high impact exercise. I gave this Shock Doctor brace four stars because it's a good brace, but could be better. The lateral supports hold my ankle well enough, but the brace itself doesn't tighten as much as I need it (the smaller size brace was too tight). The "Z-Grip speed laces" seem to be more of a gimmick than anything else. My feeling is that the brace would be better served by a simple Velcro strap that you could pull as tight as you want. Otherwise, it's a comfortable brace that doesn't pinch or press your foot during exercises. April 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Lee Great product Our 8 yr old son sprained his ankle in our driveway. After a week, he was still limping and didn't seem to be getting better. We purchased the brace to help with baseball practice. He liked it so well that he soon began wearing it everywhere. It fits well, is easy to adjust, and supports his ankle well. He couldn't walk well before we put the brace on; he could run after it was on. The brace could be a little easier to get on over his thick baseball sock, but overall I am extremely satisfied with it. April 16, 2014

Jesus told us to "Go into the world and preach the gospel to every creature." We do this by using visual illustrations and helping others develop their talent for Gospel presentation using sleight of hand, optical illusion, ventriloquism, puppets, balloons, clowning, juggling, storytelling, and other visual arts.
The Fellowship of Christian Magicians is an international organization of people, from all walks of life, dedicated to using a high standard of presentation of the Gospel and to leading the lost to the saving grace of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Why do we use the various performing arts to teach and preach the "Good News?" Because a person will only retain a small percentage of what they hear, but if you give them visual illustrations along with the lesson, their retention factor increases greatly. Add to the illustration a mystery or surprise ending, and you lock in on their curiosity and they will long remember what you've taught.

The play by Pulitzer Prize winning playwright David Mamet (Glengarry Glen Ross, Oleanna) is a tale of sex, guilt and bold accusations.
Two lawyers find themselves defending a wealthy white executive charged with raping a black woman. When a new legal associate gets involved in the case, the opinions that boil beneath explode to the surface. When David Mamet turns the spotlight on what we think, but can't say, dangerous truths are revealed, and no punches are spared.
This is the first offering of The Red Dirt Theater Company, a group dedicated to producing controversial and provocative theater. The production is directed by Mitch McFarland and stars Brent Noel, Roderick Wright, Shellie Sterling and Timothy Pranter.
Performances are July 18, 19 and 25, 26 at 8:00PM in the Theatre Lab at Oklahoma City Community College, 7777 S May Ave. Ticket prices are $15 for general admission and $10 for students and seniors. Seating is limited.

by Danielle Levy on Nov 27, 2012 at 07:56
Brewin Dolphin is to withdraw its advisory dealing service in a move it says has been driven by regulation.
The national wealth management firm, led by Jamie Matheson (pictured), is planning to withdraw the service by January in a move that coincides with the onset of the retail distribution review (RDR).
In a client letter seen by Wealth Manager, the firm explained: 'The regulatory environment in which investment management firms operate has changed significantly in recent years and the responsibilities placed upon us have increased so as to provide investors with greater protection and clarity.'
It has offered clients alternatives in the form of its advisory and discretionary managed services, its new managed portfolio service (MPS) for clients with less than £150,000, alongside execution-only.
Linked to the move, the firm is also offering clients a 'dealing with advice' service which has been modified so that it is only available to experienced investors.
Charlotte Black, director of corporate affairs, said the team would decide whether clients were eligible for the service based on 'know your client' information.
She said there would be no job losses in relation to the firm's decision to withdraw the advisory dealing service and added regulation had led to a reclassification of some of Brewin's services in order to ensure clients have properly considered all of their options and were using the service best suited to their needs and objectives.
In the letter, the firm also reminded clients that besides its new MPS, all other services would be subject to a minimum charge of £1,000 a year plus VAT as of January 2013.
Ahead of the RDR, Brewin Dolphin has introduced a national rate card for clients and has embarked on a programme of shifting existing clients out of trail-paying units.
In comparison, Walker Crips, which offers a range of stockbroking and investment management services, said it has no plans to withdraw from advisory dealing.

So basically the new regulation that was brought in to get private clients a better and fairer deal has forced a national wealth manager to withdraw services for those at the lower end of the economic scale. You can't fault Brewin for this, i'm just surprised that more companies haven't done this too.
If the object of RDR was to totally screw over every person in the UK with less than £1m then i think we can declare it a roaring success.report this

Advisory dealing is not just for less affluent clients. It is for those that appreciate input but like to retain some control. Brewin just want to control more closely everything they can be held responsible for. The managed portfolio service is very competitive for those at the lower end, as mentioned in the article above. Most know that discretionary management is a managed portfolio, house view with a nice lunch thrown in.report this

This will prove to be the tip of the ice berg when the FSA gets its teeth into what stockbrokers are doing from January 1st. Expect more and more visits to ascertain whether the FSA stringent rules are being adhered to. When this dopey Government finally realises what the FSA has actually managed to do (decimate a sector of the finacial market) maybe, just maybe they might actually do spomething tro reign in the unbelievable powers they hold. Too late for many thousands of practisioners and many businesses who will be have been forced out of the industry. Just remember which Government presided over this unholy mess at the next election.report this

July 30, 2014
BRISTOL, Tenn. (AP) -- Kasey Kahne won a Sprint Cup Series race at Bristol Motor Speedway for the first time Sunday after Brad Keselowski struggled on the final restart.
Tempers flared after the race. Joey Logano leaned inside the car window of former teammate Denny Hamlin to complain about Hamlin spinning him during the race. At the time, Logano was racing Jeff Gordon for the lead. Logano was pulled away from Hamlin's car by crew members for both drivers.
Keselowski thought he and Kahne might have battled for the victory but never had a chance. Although it appeared Keselowski spun his tires on the restart with 39 laps to go, he said he got run over from behind.
Kyle Busch snagged second from Keselowski, who faded to third. Kurt Busch finished fourth.

Regardless of the treatment regimen chosen, the goal is remission. If remission is not attained, the goals of treatment are
to achieve the lowest possible level of joint inflammation, minimize joint damage, and enhance physical function and quality
of life while minimizing drug toxicity. Monitor the patient regularly to ensure that these goals are being met and, if not,
determine if an alternative course of therapy is necessary.
Treatment of idiopathic types II through IV IMPA, drug-induced IMPA, and vaccine-associated IMPA relies on identifying and
treating underlying causes. Failure to identify triggers will result in persistent or recurrent joint inflammation.1,2,4 Once the cause is addressed, most cases resolve on their own. Some may require additional treatment as discussed below.
Other treatments may be indicated for SLE and Shar-Pei fever, as previously discussed.
Other forms of IMPA, including idiopathic type I IMPA, SLE polyarthritis, polyarthritis-meningitis syndrome, polyarthritis-myositis
syndrome, and polyarthritis in Akitas, require treatment with immunosuppressive, immunomodulating, and disease-modifying drugs.
Immunosuppressants. Corticosteroids are often the initial treatment of choice because of the low cost of treatment and rapid rate of action.1,2,4,6,18 About 80% of dogs with idiopathic type I IMPA respond to immunosuppressive doses of prednisone,9,15 but half of these dogs require long-term or combination drug therapy to maintain remission.15,18 Prednisone is initially administered at immunosuppressive doses of 2 to 4 mg/kg/day until remission is achieved (see Monitoring section below). Once remission is achieved, prednisone is then gradually reduced over an extended period, usually two to four months.1,4,6,18
If clinical signs recur upon dose reduction or discontinuation, reinstitute prednisone at the initial dose or add another
drug to therapy. If a patient needs to receive prednisone long-term to control clinical signs, use the lowest effective dose,
preferably on an every-other-day dosing schedule. Side effects associated with long-term corticosteroid use include iatrogenic
hyperadrenocorticism, diabetes mellitus, urinary tract infections, pyoderma, and breakdown of collagen in tendons and ligaments.35
If prednisone montherapy is ineffective, not tolerated, or not preferred, an additional cytotoxic drug is used adjunctively
with prednisone. Azathioprine and cyclophosphamide are most commonly used with prednisone and have been shown to induce remission
in patients with IMPA.15,18 The superiority of one drug over the other is unknown. Azathioprine is initiated at a dose of 2.2 mg/kg daily for two to
four weeks and given concurrently with prednisone at an anti-inflammatory dose of 0.5 to 1 mg/kg every other day.2,6 After induction, azathioprine is then reduced to an every-other-day dose that alternates with prednisone.2,6 Cyclophosphamide is initiated at a dose of 1.5 mg/kg (for dogs > 30 kg), 2 mg/kg (for dogs 15 to 30 kg), or 2.5 mg/kg (for
dogs < 15 kg) for the first four consecutive days of each week and given concurrently with prednisone at an anti-inflammatory
dose once daily.6 Both treatment regimens are continued for two to four months, after which, if a patient is in remission, the azathioprine
or cyclophosphamide is gradually withdrawn.6
Side effects of azathioprine include bone marrow suppression and hepatotoxicosis.35 Side effects of cyclophosphamide include bone marrow suppression and hemorrhagic cystitis.35 Because of the potential for hemorrhagic cystitis, cyclophosphamide should not be used for more than four months,1,6 and azathioprine may have the advantage of being better tolerated for long-term use. If a patient cannot be weaned from
cyclophosphamide, chlorambucil may be substituted for maintenance therapy with fewer side effects.6,29 Chlorambucil has not been shown to be effective at inducing IMPA remission.
If a patient remains in remission once the cytotoxic agent is discontinued, a patient can be gradually weaned off prednisone.
If remission is not attained with the addition of cyclophosphamide or azathioprine or is not maintained once the drugs are
removed, levamisole, leflunomide, or cyclosporine may be added or substituted for the cytotoxic agent (Table 3).
Immunomodulating drugs. Levamisole, an anthelmintic with immunomodulating properties, has been shown to be effective in treating SLE polyarthritis36 and in relapsing cases of IMPA.1,4 In a study population of German shepherds affected with SLE and polyarthritis, levamisole induced remission in 76% of dogs.36 It is administered at a range of dosages but most commonly at 2.2 mg/kg every other day or 0.5 to 2 mg/kg three times weekly.35 To treat SLE, levamisole was administered at a dosage of 2 to 5 mg/kg (maximum of 150 mg/dog) every other day with a concurrent
initial dosage of prednisone of 1 to 2 mg/kg/day.36 Side effects may include lethargy, vomiting, diarrhea, agitation, hemolytic anemia, and cutaneous drug eruption; these signs
appear to occur most commonly at higher dosages.35
Disease-modifying agents. Leflunomide has been recently evaluated for use in treating canine IMPA.3 The drug was used as monotherapy in dogs not receiving previous medication for polyarthritis and in those that relapsed
while receiving prednisone. Ninety-three percent of dogs had a complete or partial response with treatment, and, of those
responding, 63% had to continue to receive the drug long-term to maintain remission.3
Leflunomide was used at a dose of 3 to 4 mg/kg in this study and appeared to be safe and well-tolerated. Some authors recommend
adjusting the leflunomide dose to a trough level of 20 µg/ml.6,35
It has not been investigated for use in combination with corticosteroids. Side effects include mild anemia, decreased appetite,
and lethargy.37
Cyclosporine has gained popularity for use in the treatment of a variety of immune-mediated conditions and may prove useful
in treating IMPA. When used as a sole agent for treating IMPA, it was ineffective.9 Further investigation may find it efficacious as adjunct therapy. Side effects include gingival hyperplasia, gastrointestinal
upset, or recrudescence of infectious disease.35

A native of Los Angeles' notorious San Fernando Valley, Courtney Traub now divides her time between Paris, living near the stately Père Lachaise Cemetery, and Oxford, UK, where she is a Doctoral candidate in English.
A freelance journalist and editor for print, web and radio, Courtney enjoys aimless strolling around her favorite Paris neighborhoods, old movies on crackly screens, and the endless challenge of polishing her French.
Courtney has lived, worked, and studied in Paris for over a decade. In that time, she has come to know the ins and outs of what Paris has to offer-- and has also become familiar with the city's quirks and irritating points.
She is co-author of the 2012 Michelin Green Guide to Northern France and the Paris Region, and has reported multiple stories on French politics, arts, fashion and culture for media outlets including the Associated Press, Radio France Internationale and Condé Nast. She has also worked as a University lecturer and trade magazine reporter in Paris, and is the co-founder of a small editorial company, WordTailors, offering professional writing, translation, voiceovers and search engine optimization services to individuals and organizations.
Her firsthand knowledge of French culture and language gives her an insider's perspective of Paris-- although she does occasionally long for the ocean air and informal, 'in-with-the-new' ethos of her native California at times.
Courtney is currently pursuing a Doctorate in English and American Literature at the University of Oxford, UK. She holds a B.A. in Literature from the University of California, Santa Cruz and a Master's in Comparative Literature from the Sorbonne Nouvelle in Paris. She has also completed professional courses in video, radio journalism and new media.
By Courtney Traub:
I became a hopeless Francophile somewhere in my pre-teens. I amused-- and mildly exasperated-- my mother by carefully labeling furniture, walls, windows and refrigerators with their respective names in French.
Later, in high school French class, a dusty textbook circa 1970 showing a sepia photo of students at the Sorbonne cemented my fixation. I was determined to find a way to live in Paris one day.
Realizing that dream has been an inspiring (if it times rollercoaster-like) ride. I never stop falling in love with this city and its dizzy beauty. One thing about Paris: once it gets into you, you can never shake it off.

The other day I arrived at work to find one of my co-workers in full freak-out mode.
This is not an unusual state of mind for her, as she is a person about one could say, "She is such a mom." When Sarah Palin uses the term "Mama Grizzly" she is describing my friend to a T.
Raising children at times can be a process of moving from one freak-out to another over any number of causes. Flu outbreaks, bullies, food recalls, pollution, poison ivy, bee and wasp stings, allergies, emergency room visits, are all part of the parenting experience.
We get exasperated when they're bouncing off the walls and constantly getting into trouble … you know, "acting normal."
But if a threat emerges, no matter how large or small, parents, especially moms, launch into crazy protective mode. Anyway, the subject of that particular day's rant was news of a head lice outbreak in one of the classrooms at her daughter's school. (To avoid a full-scale, wide-spread, Mama Grizzly freak-out, I will leave the identity of that school to the administrators.)

Algeria's state news service says nearly 100 out of the 132 foreign hostages kidnapped by Islamist militants have been freed from a gas plant in the Sahara desert.
The report by APS indicated a potential breakthrough in a bloody siege that began when militants seized the plant early Wednesday and reflected a significant jump in the number of foreign hostages involved.
The Friday report from the government news agency, citing a security official, did not mention any casualties in the battles between Algerian forces and the militants. But earlier it had said that 18 militants had been killed.
It was not clear whether the remaining foreigners were still captive or had been killed in the Algerian military operation to free them that began Thursday.

As the new academic year begins, we are issuing reminders of our programs aimed at drug and alcohol abuse prevention and education. This is also a reminder of our collective efforts to address the problem of substance abuse, a challenge shared by schools and colleges throughout the nation. SMU is committed to helping its students pursue their education with good health and lifestyle habits.
Programs of the SMU Center for Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention:
The SMU Center for Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention provides awareness and training programs, assessments, counseling, interventions and referrals. Its mission includes promoting activities and programs with student support to focus campus attention on alcohol and drug abuse.
The Center is in the process of hiring a full-time health educator, who will join two full-time licensed counselors on staff.
Education and Campus Awareness
The Center offers education about alcohol and other drugs, chemical dependency and substance abuse, including:
- Orientation programs to incoming students and their parents during July and August. The programs include the award-winning film Tell Me Something I Dont Know, which was produced after the alcohol-related death of an MIT freshman in 1997. Parents receive a copy of What Should Parents Know About Alcohol and Drugs on Campus and are mailed a list of campus health resources from the parent liaison.
- AlcoholEdu, an online, science-based education course program, required for all new students.
- The Social Norms Campaign, in partnership with the SMU Temerlin Advertising Institute, focusing on correcting student misperceptions about alcohol and drugs.
- Wellness Choices I courses, required for all first-year students, which address alcohol and drug abuse prevention each semester.
- A program on Healthy Habits, which covers the topics of nutrition and alcohol.
Training and Peer Educators
The Center trains students, residential assistants, faculty and staff to help others who may have a substance abuse or dependency problem through programs including:
- TIPS, or Training in Intervention Procedures, for student leaders in residence halls and Greek houses to assist in preventing alcohol misuse.
- Because I Care, a drug-specific program the Center piloted this spring and will launch this fall to teach students the information and skills they need to intervene with peers who are using drugs.
Assessment and Intervention
- By working with friends, family, faculty and staff, the Center assesses student problems with alcohol and other drugs and provides access to appropriate help, including online screening programs such as E-Chug and E-Toke and on-campus substance abuse prevention classes.
Counseling, Referrals and Support
- The Center provides short-term counseling to students on substance-abuse issues and offers referrals for outside support and treatment when necessary. It supports self-help groups on campus and in the community, including Alcoholics Anonymous and other 12-step groups, and works with recovering students on relapse prevention and on re-entry to college after treatment.
- The Center also is a member of the North Texas Consortium on Substance Abuse Prevention in Higher Education and the Alliance on Underage Drinking (ALOUD), The SMU Center was one of eight nationally to be recognized for excellence in alcohol education programming from Outside the Classroom, the developer of an online prevention program used on more than 450 college campuses around the country.

These guys are always on top. I never have had a problem ordering supplies from them.
Very impressed. Ordered was shipped and received in time frame given. Was informed of tracking information so I could follow order. This was probably the easiest online order I have ever done.
Product delivered on time as promised. Quality appears to be very good. Great pricing!
Easy process to order. Confirmation and follow up with shipping date. Product arrived on time and exactly what I needed.
The toner works great and saved me a fortune! Quite happy with my purchase. I'd love it if there was an obvious and simple way to ship back my old cartridges in the same box to have them recycled...

If a ballot initiative is known by the company it keeps, we should be just a teeny bit suspicious of Proposition 23, the Nov. 2 measure designed to eviscerate California's new greenhouse gas regulation.
The driving force behind the initiative is the oil industry, which has contributed more than $2.3 million to getting it passed. The biggest single contributor is San Antonio-based Valero Energy ($1.05 million, according to the latest state campaign disclosures), with San Antonio-based Tesoro Corp. in second place with $525,000.

I've mentioned before that cookies are my go-to baking treat. I wasn't lying. If I get the urge to bake and experiment, the first place I go to is cookies. There's a lot of room for successful experimentation in gluten-free cookies. They're also easy to share, which is what I often do with my baked goods. My coworkers receive a great many of my creations. (Although the hubby's coworkers received these – gotta spread the wealth from time to time!) And, they're cookies. Cookies are awesome!
So I had a few minutes the other night, waiting for dinner to finish in the oven, and so I threw together these little babies. I made a small batch (but you could definitely double the recipe!), since I was experimenting, just to see how they'd turn out. They looked promising out of the oven, but they were even more delightful once they cooled. Comforting, sweet (but not overly so), a bit soft, a bit chewy. A perfect little bite after dinner, or to help through a long afternoon.
Of course, this means that other recipes that I've promised (like the chocolate zucchini cake pictured here) will have to wait a few more days. You see, I had requests for the recipe after I posted the photo on Facebook, so I went ahead and bumped these to the front of the line. But I promise, the cake will come. Soon. For now, enjoy this simple little treat.

Those look like tollhouse cookies Alta! I know they are nothing like them, but by the looks, you could really fool people. I'm amazed by almond flour sometimes.
These are absolutely lovely, Alta! After your last black walnut recipe, that yummy and beautiful cake, I picked up some black walnuts to make an old favorite recipe of ours, but haven't gotten to it yet. Soon, I hope. Must share this one!
Oh goodness goshness!! These look truly mouth watering delish!! I have not had black walnuts in many years. We have black walnuts trees growing in our back yard, but I have tried twice to dry them myself. I just can't get past the process and stages they have to go through. When we leave them in boxes away from the house, the squirrels find our stash and they stash 'em away!
I will have to try to find some in the local grocery to make these for sure.
Black walnuts are such a treat, a rare treat. I think I spent 2 hours last fall coaxing one cup of nutmeat out of a pail of black walnuts. Worth it though!
Can I use coconut flour instead of almond?
I adore using almond flour in cookies, in fact I think they were made for each other I could easily bake cookies every day for the rest of my life. These will be made on one of those days – easily egg-free! Yum, thanks for another great recipe Alta. Fab shot too
We have SOOOOO many walnuts. I have heard that you digest nuts better if roasted, so I make the "Crispy Walnuts" from Sue Fallon's "Nourishing Traditions" book.
Tom–I have a "Master Cracker" (I think that is the name!), so it takes a lot of the grunt work out. I still take about 45 minutes for a cup, though! LOL! I do it while watching TV or something equally boring–LOL!
I am so excited for this recipe–I think I might try to bake them up today. I don't have almond butter, so will substitute another butter for that (hey…can we say "Walnut butter"?? I wonder if that'd work, with a little walnut oil?).
I really, REALLY appreciate your site and your recipes! So glad I stumbled upon it (from a Facbeook link! LOL!).
Pingback: Gluten-Free Goodness: Walnut Cookies « Nutrition Talks
They look amazing and really simple. I'll have to give it a go. I'm a cookie monster. They're my favorite treat.
These cookies truly were fantastic thanks for the great recipe!
Wow! Beautiful! Just beautiful! Those lights made for one perfect picture! I am loving this recipe!! These have to taste amazing!

Astronomy is my hobby. Kind of an obsession at times!
I started out in Topology and Analysis at Texas Tech, then went to Wisconsin and switched to Applied Math. Started working on a PhD thesis in General Relativity, then changed to Dynamical Systems, and ended up with a PhD in Differentiability Theory.
I'm pretty comfortable with most Math and Classical Physics. Never could understand the Quantum stuff. Elementary Particle Theory makes no sense to me.
I also worked as a radar engineer in the missile defense industry for 10 years. After 10 years I can't claim to be a real engineer. I just worked on the mathematical problems the engineers could come up with for me. Still, it gave me an appreciation of the "real world."

Why are goosebumps called goosebumps
few people know this but there are actually tiny geese trapped under your skin. when you get cold they think it's time to fly south for the winter so they try to break free and the bumps on your skin are their beaks trying to break through.

Rated 5 out of 5�by jeremy32069 Good product Fits well and looks great these were purchased for a beginner 5 year old girl as part of a package with cleats and a ball at a great price. July 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Mom of 2 in Cali Love the color I have an almost 3 yr old starting soccer. I bought a set that included cleats, shin guards and a ball for $35. Great value! I have her put on the shin guards and cleats a few times a week to practice so once game time comes she is used to them. I got her a size small. She has very long legs. June 12, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by lmk Good and Comfortable My daughter just started playing soccer so we got the package deal and are very pleased. Many of the other kids on the team complain about the shin guards being tight or itchy. These shin guards are comfortable and stay in place. I will be buying two more sets for my twins for the summer league May 14, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Lily Very Good I bought these for my niece who is starting socccer this spring. They are comfortable and colorful. She was very happy. Great start May 7, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Nana Umbro GT Pink Youth Aoccer Ahin Guards Recently I purchased Unbro Soccer shin guards at the Saugus store. The personell at the store were very helpful to me since I am a grandmother.My grandaughter loves the shin guards and said that they are very comfortable to wear.I had help from a young man which made my trip much easier. May 7, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Williamsvillesoccermom Nice quality. We bought these along with the matching Umbro socks. According to my child's height, the package recommends XS. The staff at Dick's tried the XS on as well as the small. The XS probably wouldn't fit by the end of the season. May 6, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by jgervas1 Nice Fit, Sturdy These are availabe in small enough sizes for the littlest soccer players. My daughter runs well and they stay in place. April 29, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by soccermom great shin guards I like the extra support in the ankles. Great for a young player. Easy on and off. April 28, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Coaches2 Keeping the legs safe! These shin guards provide good protection from the errant kicks of enthusiastic second graders. April 23, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by gieseygirly Umbro Youth Shin Guards are much better than Nike! Finally, after my third trip back to the store, I gave up on the Nike brand shin guards - Nike shin guards run so small that I wasn't even sure about an adult size for my ten year old daughter. After buying the Umbro shin guards, which she likes the design better anyway, my daughter has not complained one bit about them hurting her. Thanks, Umbro, for paying attention the actual size of today's children and not creating a shin guard that's made for a doll!! April 23, 2014

It has been noted that there is no law requiring a presidential candidate to release tax returns. That fact is correct. However, Mr. Romney's own father set the standard for transparency on this issue when he released 12 years of his own tax returns. Mr. Romney states that he doesn't want to release his tax returns because he is afraid of negative political attacks. I don't believe that being afraid of what might be done with the information is a sufficient reason for Mr. Romney not to release his tax returns. More likely, people will be more angered by the preferential tax treatment that Mr. Romney has received from the current tax code. Mr. Romney is asking for us to consider him for the presidency of our country. In such a position, he will be setting tax policy and also signing tax laws. How can we assess his view of the tax code without knowing how he applied the tax code to his own income?
The argument is made that a person is "smart" to use every tax loophole that is available. Of couse it's well known that many tax loopholes have been given to specific special interests. Lobbyists ply our elected officials with money and in return they get preferences that ordinary working people do not get. There are many tax strategies that push the envelope on legality. When someone has their money all over the world and uses foreign tax havens, we have an interest, as the voting public, to make sure that we agree with the tax strategies used. We have a right to know that Mr. Romney, or any presidential candidate, has been loyal to our country in their pursuit of their wealth. Tax returns will give us that information.
Requesting information from a candidate in order to make an informed vote does not make a person jealous of wealth nor does it imply that wealth is evil. I am angry though about the 15% "carried interest" loophole that allows millionaires and billionaires to classify their income as investment income rather than ordinary wages. Also, let me again repeat the question: How does someone get an IRA worth up to $100 million dollars? I want an answer to that question. Doesn't everyone want an answer to that one?
There is that argument out there that 49% of people don't pay taxes. I believe the statistic is that 49% of people don't pay federal income tax. Working people pay local, state, Medcare & Social Security taxes. Even if people don't work they pay sales tax & gas taxes. It's not fair or correct to make the statement that people on the lower income scale do not pay taxes. So do we want to increase federal income taxes on the working poor so the wealthy can have more tax cuts? I don't know, you tell me.
What I want most out of our government and those who represent us, no matter what political party, is transparency. I want to know who funds their campaigns and to whom they owe a debt. I want to know if they've been moral in the way they've conducted themselves in their personal and business lives. As they make business decisions, have they been loyal to our country and the American people. That's what's important to me and that's why I, along with prominent people from both political parties, call on Mr. Romney to release his tax returns.

Operating in state-of-the-art facilities, our team of board-certified interventional radiologists and experienced hospital staff focus on minimally invasive techniques designed to diagnose and treat certain life-threatening conditions and diseases, such as heart disease and cancer.
Our Experts
Interventional Radiologists
Interventional Radiologists are physicians who specialize in the use of advanced imaging technology and who are experts in surgical procedures performed using instruments that are inserted into the blood vessels. Your Interventional Radiologist is a highly skilled physician who is skilled in the latest minimally-invasive and imaging-guided procedures.
The doctor who admits you is responsible for directing your care throughout your stay with us and afterwards as well. He or she will coordinate diagnosis and treatment with our specialists and surgeons, rehabilitation therapists, and many others. Your doctor, as the coordinator of your treatment plan, should be consulted if you have any questions about your heart care program.
Nurses Specializing in Interventional Radiology
A nurse will provide much of your care throughout your stay with us. Your nurse will assure orders given by your physician and/or surgeon are completed, including delivery of medications and monitoring your vital signs.
Hospitalists are physicians who specializes in providing care for patients while they are hospitalized rather than seeing them in an office setting. Hospitalists work closely with a patient's primary care physician. Upon hospital admission, the Hospitalist will inform your physician's office and obtain any necessary information and records. They remain in contact with your physician as needed during your hospital stay. Upon discharge from the hospital, a copy of the discharge report is sent to your physician.
Diagnostic testing requires a physician's order.

Bacone media relations
BEAUMONT, Texas - The Bacone Warriors were unable to contain the Lamar Cardinals, falling 53-0 Saturday night at Provost Umphrey Stadium.
The Cardinals got on the scoreboard first when Caleb Berry hit Reggie Begleton for a 20-yard touchdown pass that capped a six-play, 68-yard drive.
Berry tossed touchdown passes of two and four yards to give Lamar a 20-0 lead in the second quarter.
The Warriors added to the Cardinals' lead when quarterback Kyle Kuban was tackled in the end zone for two points.
Lamar tacked two more scores to lead Bacone 36-0 at halftime.
It was much of the same story in the second as the Cardinals added a field goal and touchdown rushes of 11 and 12 yards en route to the 53-0 victory.
For the game the Warriors accumulated only 128 yards on offense as they dropped to 2-2 on the season.
Kuban, Karl Birkenfield and Jevone Valentine all saw time at quarterback and combined to finish three-for-22 for 27 yards with four interceptions.
Roderick Mackey anchored the ground game with 50 yards on nine carries.
Bacone (2-2) hosts Haskell Indian Nations next week at 6 p.m.

A 28-year-old woman was being treated today for three stab wounds inflicted by a man who attacked her as she jogged in Rossmoor, authorities said.
The woman was grabbed from behind and stabbed at 9:11 p.m. Tuesday while she jogged on Bostonian Drive, according to Orange County Sheriff's Department spokesman Jim Amormino.
Though hurt, the woman knocked the knife out of the assailant's hand, but he managed to knock her down and stabbed her two more times, Armormino said, adding that the victim was stabbed in the face, arm and hand, suffering non- life-threatening wounds.
Hearing the woman's screams, a resident of the upscale community rushed outside, and the assailant fled on a BMX bicycle, Amormino said. Amormino said the assailant was a thin Hispanic man in his early 20s who wore dark clothing and a baseball cap. The man made no attempt to sexually assault the victim, Amormino said, calling the attack random.

Doing more with less
Everyone likes more, but how often does the word less actually make you get excited — especially when you're looking at a plasma flat screen TV? Prepare to up that tally by one with the Samsung PN43E450 43" 720p flat screen TV. Samsung's +1 design gives you less bezel, so you get a sleeker looking TV, and a bigger screen you can fit in less space (a full inch bigger screen). Want even less? Samsung's Eco-Sensor makes sure that this generation of plasma TV uses less power by automatically adjusting the screen brightness according to how much light there is in the room, so you not only get to spend less money powering your panel, you also get to spend less time wondering if you're getting the perfect picture. A 600Hz subfield drive makes sure that you get less picture problems, with the E450 flashing and analyzing a single image 600 times per second, and Samsung's new Clear Image Panel filter makes sure that every angle is the best viewing angle, leading to less blur and less loss of detail. Of course even with all that less, there's still some more in this screen. Samsung's Real Black Panel gives you more contrast between brights and darks, creating more realistic, bolder images. Working together with the 43E450's Wide Color Enhancer for more vibrant colors, you'll be able to enjoy a picture quality normally reserved only for the best flat screen TVs. All for a lot less than you'd expect.

Via Journalism.co.uk:
The "current crisis" engulfing UK newspaper journalism has inspired a new fast-turnaround theatre production that will launch in Glasgow at the end of April.
The National Theatre of Scotland and the London Review of Books have teamed up to produce Enquirer, which will be performed in an empty floor of an office block in Glasgow's digital media quarter at Pacific Quay, before moving to London later in the year.
It is based on more than 50 interviews with people working in the newspaper industry - from reporters to printers and newsagents - conducted by journalists Paul Flynn, Deborah Orr and Ruth Wishart.
The transcripts from the interviews will be edited into a script, and the project will be updated throughout the rehearsal and performance period to reflect the current state of events in the phone hacking story and the Leveson inquiry.
The AP has a nice story about many other standard, shameful practices at News of the World. It's a blood-in-the-water kind of moment for the mainstream press. But the mainstream press should not throw stones. This kind of stuff happens everywhere, including at the AP. I know. I used to work there.
[Newspapers] are important assets, we care about them…but that's not going to drive our future. Our future is being driven by those big, broad content platform channel businesses.
The Daily is the most exciting news media start-up of the millennium!
The Daily is doomed. A horrible venture from a horrible man.
On the sleek iPad, it is indescribably magical to touch the news.
Apple is a fascist censor with onerous terms.
News Corp. is paying journalists, and paying them well!
You can't cover the nation with 100 people.
It came to Rupert Murdoch in a dream.
It is a nightmare.
WHAT'S BEHIND THE schizophrenic anticipation for News Corp.'s iPad-only newspaper, the Daily? Why is half the city rooting for its demise, and the other half greeting its arrival like the second coming?
We journalists are naturally a skeptical group. As someone who would like to see newspaper-style journalism on a digital platform, I am rooting for concept behind The Daily. But, based on what we know right now, I'd have to say that it doesn't look good for The Daily - even if it does receive a glowing endorsement (or engineering help) from Steve "Midas Touch" Jobs.
