We thought this was very good. It took relatively little prep time other than chopping the mushrooms (we food processed the onion and jalapeño). We didn't have a red onion, so we used white, and it still tasted great. Like another reviewer, we served this for dinner with black beans. We'll definitely be having it again!

RANDOM LAKE, WI (WHBL) - Students in Random Lake High School have a new incentive to behave properly. The district has implemented a program called Rams Bucks. It's designed to follow the Positive Behavioral Intervention and Supports model where good behavior is encouraged and rewarded. Students receive a Ram Buck when teachers notice them exhibiting one of four values; be here, be prepared, be respectful or be positive.
Students can use them to purchase items from the school store. Teacher Ryan Faris said the bucks can also be used in the classroom for incentives such as delaying a quiz or working with another student on a project. Rams Bucks can also be used for special drawings for bigger incentives like parking spots or free admission to extracurricular events.
Faris adds that empty and quieter hallways once new class periods begin show that students are buying into the program, and that it has created a better learning environment.

Tyna Dao
PhD Student, Environmental Health Sciences
Three years into a career at the Food and Drug Administration, where she spent much of her time at a desk reviewing food additives, Tyna Dao knew she wanted to work in public health. A toxicologist by training, Dao is keenly interested in food and drug safety at the population level. Her mission now is to find a way to integrate basic science training with her passion for public health. "I just really want to use science to help people," she says. Her work here at the Bloomberg School involves epigenetics, the study of changes in gene expression or cellular phenotype, caused by mechanisms other than changes in the underlying DNA sequence. She's examining the effects of exposing pregnant mice to environmental factors, such as a high-fat diet, allergens, antioxidants or endocrine disruptors, to see if the pups have a higher risk of asthma. While she sees a future for herself working at the bench, Dao also enjoys the challenges of the regulatory environment. She plans to augment her scientific knowledge with a PhD in molecular and translational toxicology but doesn't limit herself to the confines of a lab. "I may want to go back into government work doing risk assessment," she says. "It's fascinating to be the person who makes regulatory calls in terms of toxicological studies. Someone has to make those decisions and interpret that data." 17: Number of years Dao has been playing tennis

For the teams from MaidPerfectPDX, cleaning a home doesn't simply mean wiping away all of the dust and grime. It also means finishing the job by using as many eco-friendly products as possible. Occasionally, the staff members even make their own cleaning solutions using the same method Cinderella used to make her perfume: by mixing a base of pure water and vinegar and adding a splash of essential oils?such as lavender, vanilla, or almond?for fragrance. Armed with these hypoallergenic, family-friendly products, they thoroughly scour nooks and crannies throughout the home. The teams can dust reachable surfaces, scrub kitchen sinks, vacuum rugs, and wipe down mirrors, leaving abodes spotless without ever having to resort to toxic chemicals.

In interview with Anthony Stacchi and Graham Annable, directors of LAIKA's "The Boxtrolls".
Name this plot: The gang hangs out near the beach and has a way of spontaneously breaking out into dance. A pretty girl is new in town. She's an outsider, until the leader of the beach crowd befriends her. Life's a holiday until an evil real-estate developer comes along and wants to destroy the Eden on the beach by erecting a huge development. The kids decide to protest in order to preserve their beloved turf. And the snaky developer turns out, inevitably, to be the new girl's daddy.
I'm pushing the buzzer and shouting "Beach Party"! "Frankie and Annette!" But I'm dating myself. "Step Up: Revolution" is the fourth of the "Step Up" movies, a series of unconnected stories that serve as showcases for the kinds of young stars who sincerely hope they'll soon be in better movies. The first one, in 2006, starred Channing Tatum. This fourth one stars Kathryn McCormick, from "So You Think You Can Dance." You get the idea.
McCormick is Emily, who we meet soon after she turns up in Miami Beach. She dreams of being a dancer and soon falls into the orbit of the Mob. No, not that one. This one is an awesomely well-organized, rehearsed, choreographed and disciplined flash mob that materializes around town and constantly mystifies TV news anchors, who report on its manifestations as if every appearance is a complete surprise. The mob's leader, Sean, is played by first-time actor Ryan Guzman. Like everyone else in "Step Up: Revolution," Sean is good-looking, gifted and apparently self-supporting, since he's available 24/7 to turn up anywhere and dance.
The Mob oversteps the boundaries of your average flash mob, to be sure; they even do a choreographed routine while dancing on the hoods and roofs of cars that are (luckily) stopped in traffic. They have an uncanny way of materializing at public events involving the mayor and the evil real-estate developer (Peter Gallagher) and interrupting their speeches with high-octane production numbers. Even though the group's M.O. is well-established, the Miami Beach police seem singularly clueless. Ask yourself this question: What does the typical audience look like at a public speech by a real estate developer? As you fix that image in your mind, ask yourself if the cops would notice a large number of "So You Think You Can Dance" types, casually skulking about and acting as if they're not about to burst into dance.
Never mind. There's another crucial element to the story. It depends on all of the members of the Mob being immortal and stuck in a moment of time. They are staging their protests because the development would go up right where they like to hang out. Bwaa-bwaa! There's even the colorful restaurant run by a kindly old guy who is usually called Pop in these stories, although I missed his name this time.
Now, because Emily's father wants to tear down everything and erect his development, they are heartbroken. Where will they hang out now? Like many civic-minded people, I am in favor of landmarks and valuable streetscapes that are beloved by countless people. But is the Mob trying to preserve Miami Beach's Art Deco treasures? No, we never hear such a challenging term in the movie. I think they're basically trying to preserve Pop's.
That's why they'll have to be immortal. Because they assume that Pop's, and their favorite little shops for pants and shoes, will be there forever — and so will they. But consider how tragic it would be if Emily, Sean, Pop and the gang were all still there in 50 years, still popping up by surprise to dance on cars. We'd really need health care then. No, it is the way of the world that people grow up and move along, and we cannot destroy the plans of developers merely to preserve kids' precious hangouts, although if it involves Donald Trump, it might be OK.
OK, OK. They're good dancers, and well-choreographed. You can see the movie for that and be charitable about the moronic plot.

A bachelor's degree in emergency management professionals must be capable to demonstrate knowledge of all relevant laws, policies, and procedures pertaining to the protection of the people, property, and data during any type of emergency. The WTAMU program instructs its students in those administrative, budgetary, and management skills needed to advance beyond the entry-level position toward leadership positions within their departments and agencies.
Data obtained from the Occupational Information Network (O*NET) under sponsorship of the U.S. Department of Labor/Employment and Training Administration (USDOL/ETA) states the EMA growth rate will average between 13 and 28 percent annually for the next five years with a beginning salary ranging between $40 - $42K annually.

Over his three years in the Rangers organization, Mats Zuccarello has developed quite the reputation as a clutch go-to performer in the shootout. Though he was denied on his first attempt this season---after rejoining the team---Zuccarello came through Wednesday night at The Garden as he patiently waits before beating James Reimer of Toronto in the second round. That goal not only made Zuccarello 6-for-12 in career shootouts, it also was the only goal of that night's shootout, leading the Rangers to an important 3-2 victory.

Audi doesn't mind pushing the envelope a little further than most people would and has proven that with the release of a new Le Mans race car. The racer is called the R18 e-Tron hybrid quattro, a four-wheel driven diesel hybrid race car that's set to compete at the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans in France on June 16 and 17, 2012.
Working under the same principles as that of the Porsche 911 GT3 R Hybrid , the R18 e-Tron hybrid quattro uses kinetic energy that's recovered whenever the car brakes, storing that energy in the flywheel accumulator as electricity before being sent back to the electric motors on the front wheels. The motors take car of the front of the vehicle, while the rear wheels get their power from the car's 510-horsepower V6 TDI engine. The only difference between the aforementioned Porsche and the R18 e-Tron hybrid quattro is that the latter is considered a mild hybrid, using a petrol engine along with electricity.
Since the car uses a heavy hybrid system, Audi went and designed the race car's gearbox using carbon fiber composite housing, alleviating some of the weight brought about by the complicated drivetrain.
Before it struts its wares in Le Mans, the car will be put through the paces on May 5th at the 6-hour race at Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium where it will be raced by Allan McNish, Dindo Capello Tom Kristensen and Benoît Tréluyer, André Lotterer and Marcel Fässler.
UPDATE 06/07/2012: Audi has unveiled a cool promo video for their brand new R18 e-Tron that will compete at the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans race on Saturday, June 16th-17th 2012. The video presents Audi 's racing evolution, going from turbocharged direct injection (TFSI) up to turbo diesel (TDI) engines and the new e-tron.

Thierry Mafisy Miharivonjy Razafindranaivo – Cook, Madagascar
"I live in the same house as my parents, but we don't have a household together, so I don't need to give them money for food. Me, my wife and our six-month-old daughter survive on my salary. My wife also earns some money from basket making. My mother knows how to make traditional crafts, so my wife works with her. This way, we have some extra income.
"When I was younger, I wanted to become a civil servant, like my father, but you had to pass an exam to be accepted to train at a ministry and, unlike my father, in my time you have to bribe people to be able to get in.
"Since I couldn't get into the ministry, I tried to find a job in the private sector, but this was difficult, especially these last three years, with the crisis [in 2009 twice-elected president Marc Ravalomanana was deposed by Andry Rajoelina with the backing of the army; poverty has since been on the rise]. So in the end, I was glad to find this job in the restaurant. My wife if still trying to find a steady job, but until now it's been hard.
"I think that my parents had an easier life. Things weren't so expensive when they were younger. Now, we spend all our money on food. There is never enough money to get through the month. Sometimes I can't sleep, worrying about these things."
"The birth of my daughter was the happiest event this year. I hope that she will be able to obtain enough education and connections to become a civil
"What is my biggest headache? That we can't find suitable jobs, and the price of food keeps rising. We just hope we'll be able to find jobs that pay more. Maybe we'll try to sell more baskets, but often I can't sleep because of money problems.
"I hope I'll be better off next year. I'll try my best to improve our situation."

Rinaldo Alessandrini's fascinating programme of largely 17th-century instrumental music showcases most of the forms embraced by composers during the period. Presented essentially in chronological order, the representative works demonstrate progression, are sharply contrasted and sustain interest throughout.
Central to the programme, as well as to the century, are Castello's Sonata a quattro no.16, with its second movement descriptive of a battle, dances extracted from Zanetti's pedagogical treatise Il scolaro…per imparare a suonare di violino and a passacaglia by Marini. Earlier works include canzonas by Giovanni Gabrieli, Merula, Frescobaldi and Salvatore and a transcription by Alessandrini of Merula's keyboard Capriccio cromatico. A sonata by Legrenzi, Bononcini's Sinfonia no.4 and concerti a quattro by Torelli and dall'Abaco display the long 17th century's repertoire in full flower.
Alessandrini and Concerto Italiano perform with clean-cut precision, an engaging stylishness and innate musicality, making the most of the striking dissonances, inventive chromaticism, intricate counterpoint and ornamental opportunity on offer, notably in Frescobaldi's Canzona quinta a quattro. Dance movements, too, are sharply characterised, particularly the seven extracts from Zanetti's treatise. Alessandrini rings the changes in the continuo as appropriate between his own harpsichord and organ support and Ugo di Giovanni's sensitive theorbo contribution. The recording is warmly resonant.

Pitt Law Academy: Is It Possible to Be a Superstar Lawyer and Still Have a Personal Life/Family?
On Tuesday, February 5 at 4:30 p.m., in Room 107 (not the Courtroom), the law school will present its seventh Pitt Law Academy program of the year: "Is It Possible to Be a Superstar Lawyer and Still Have a Personal Life/Family?"
The five panelists are a group of well-known, highly respected, and extraordinarily talented lawyers (and one trial-court judge). These five are also, in a word, "special." Truly. They really are. Each of them is incredibly insightful, entertaining, and interesting. They should be. To be a really good lawyer, you've got to be able to tell a good story.
Our storytelling panelists are:
- Max Beier, Esq., Beier, Beier & Beier
- Cami Davis, Thorp Reed & Armstrong
- John Gismondi, Gismondi & Associates
- Merle Kramer Mermelstein, Silverblatt Mermelstein
- Hon. Jill Rangos, Allegheny County Court of Common Pleas
So . . . you should remember the mantra by heart by now: "The Pitt Law Academy program is designed to assist you in thinking about life after law school." And, honestly, what more important after-law-school topic can there possibly be than your nonprofessional life? Am I right?
Okay, you've probably heard the horror stories: legal practice – especially litigation – means that you will be worked to the bone; you will be virtually enslaved if you work in a law firm; you will never get to see your family; you will have no social life; the work is all-consuming.
Is that true? Is it really true? Should you consider dropping out of law school right now and becoming a plumber? There are always leaks to be caulked (or whatever . . . I don't know). What have you gotten yourselves into? What should you/can you expect?
You know, if the practice of law is really as scary as it is cracked up to be by some people, why would anyone do it for a living? (Oh . . . wait . . . did I forget to mention that most of these lawyer-panelists are doing pretty well economically?) But you know what? Even if a life in the law wasn't potentially so lucrative, most lawyers I know would keep doing it anyway. Why? Why? Why?
Glad you asked. That's some of what Max, Cami, John, Merle and Judge Jill will talk about. Why do they (did they, in Jill's case) do it? And how can you be a lawyer – a really, really top-notch lawyer – and still have a decent personal life? Or . . . I've asked these five to tell you the truth BTW, but, remember, they are lawyers, so you know, who knows? . . . Can you really expect to have it all: an amazing professional life and an amazing personal life, too?
Anyway, our five panelists will talk about this sort of thing. They will offer you some insights about what it means to live a life in the law, and to live your "real" life as well. And I've asked them to talk about whether they would do it all again if they were in your shoes today. Was it worth it? They will tell you the truth. They are not shy. You'll see.
Last but not least, there will also be the sort of elaborate post-panel reception you have all come to expect at PLA events, immediately following this presentation. I was going to serve champagne and caviar on – you know – those little, toast-point things. Hey, everything was all set. And when I mentioned this to the dean he said: "Word." (That's how he talks when you aren't around. I think he meant that champagne and caviar were okay with him.) And then . . . and then . . . and then we just looked at all those budget cuts dictated by reduced state funding, so . . . you know, then we figured that it was either cut the champagne and the caviar or raise tuition 84.67%. So . . . it's cookies. And fruit slices. Yummo!
You know what? If tuition is going to go up anyway, the least you should get out of this experience is a cookie, and a piece of cantaloupe. Done. And to seal the deal, we're throwing in some of that fire-engine red, super-sweet punch, brewed like only Pitt catering can make it. All of this for "free" (excluding consideration of your tuition dollars). You're welcome.
So don't be shy! Come to the reception after the presentation and share a chocolate-frosted, marshmallow-macadamia-nut cookie with sprinkles with one of our panelists! Come and meet and talk to some of the people who you may someday face (or argue in front of) in court. Butter them up now. Maybe they will hurt you less when you face off against them in a few years. (Update: no chocolate-frosted, marshmallow-macadamia-nut cookies with sprinkles; if we purchased them for you, we'd have to cut out one of our clinics. We thought about it but, for now, we're going with the clinics.)
2ls and 3Ls: Don't miss the networking opportunities here, upperclass people. Pitt Law Academy. It's where all the cool kids are. Word.

Free radicals are believed to contribute to stroke, Alzheimer's disease, and the deleterious effects of aging on the brain.The finding may be useful in the development of a therapy for aged individuals and/or those with neurological disorders. Dr Takumi Satoh of Iwate University in Japan, and Stuart A. Lipton, MD, PhD of the Burnham Institute's Del E. Webb Neuroscience, Aging, and Stem Cell Research Center discovered that carnosic acid remains harmless until needed to fight free radical damage, upon which it activates a neuroprotective signaling pathway, making it a "pathological-activated therapeutic" or PAT drug. "This new type of drug works through a mechanism known as redox chemistry in which electrons are transferred from one molecule to another in order to activate the body's own defense system," Dr Lipton commented. "Moreover, unlike most new drugs, this type of compound may well be safe and clinically tolerated because it is present in a naturally-occurring herb that is known to get into the brain and has been consumed by people for over a thousand years." Drs Satoh and Lipton have filed a patent application for a series of compounds that have demonstrated improved benefits over the rosemary herb itself. "This is not to say that Rosemary chicken is not good for you," said Dr. Satoh, "but it means that we can do even better in protecting the brain from terrible disorders such as Alzheimer's and Lou Gehrig's disease, perhaps even slowing down the effects of normal aging, by developing new and improved cousins to the active ingredient in rosemary." Health Concern Mild cognitive impairment Free radicals are highly unstable molecules that react with other molecules in a damaging process known as oxidation. Areas of the body with high energy output, such as the brain, are particularly vulnerable to damage from free radicals. The body normally defends itself against the harmful effects of free radicals with antioxidants, including superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase, as well as vitamins C and E. Animal studies have suggested that diets high in antioxidants can delay age-related memory loss (Joseph JA et al 1998; Perrig WJ et al 1997). In addition to hormone therapy, a number of nutrients and supplements have been studied for their ability to enhance cognitive function. These agents act through a variety of mechanisms, including boosting antioxidant capabilities, improving blood flow to the brain, and reducing the rate of neuronal destruction. Taking steps to improve one's overall health is highly recommended to help prevent or minimize age-associated mental impairment. For example, exercising regularly, not smoking, and monitoring blood cholesterol levels can reduce the risk of stroke and heart disease and keep arteries open, supplying the brain with essential oxygen and nutrients. Since most people tend to eat less as they age, the consumption of low-fat, nutrient-rich food is recommended to help prevent nutrient deficiencies. Eating large quantities of foods rich in antioxidants, such as blueberries, may provide protection from age-related mental decline. http://www.lef.org/protocols/neurological/mild_cognitive_impairment_01.htm Featured Products Cognitex with Neuroprotection Complex Cognitex with NeuroProtection Complex contains high quality nutrients to provide broad-spectrum neurological support: Uridine-5'-monophosphate (UMP) is a phosphatide building block of RNA-DNA that is critical to optimal brain function and the health of neuronal cell membranes. Naturally found in the milk of nursing mothers, UMP is essential not only for the growth and development of infant brains, but also for healthy cognitive function in aging adults. SharpPS Gold™, a rich phosphatidylserine compound bound to DHA, promotes already-normal neuronal cell membrane function and structure. Glyceryl phosphoryl choline (GPC) boosts acetylcholine, a critical neurotransmitter that declines with age. Vinpocetine enhances circulation and oxygenation to brain cells, improves neural electrical conductivity, and protects against neuron-destroying excitotoxicity. Phosphatidylcholine-grape seed extract bound together results in a compound that is better absorbed into the bloodstream where it improves blood vessel tone and elasticity, thus enhancing blood circulation and oxygen flow to the brain. Wild blueberry extract suppresses free radical and inflammatory damage in the brain, and may improve memory and reverse certain changes seen in aging neurons. Sensoril® ashwagandha extract helps alleviate mental fatigue by inhibiting an enzyme (acetylcholinesterase) that degrades acetylcholine in the aging brain. Proprietary NeuroProtection Complex Blend contains standardized extracts of hops, ginger, and rosemary—proven anti-inflammatory nutrients. http://www.lef.org/newshop/items/item00921.html Dual-Action Cruciferous Vegetable Extract with Cat's Claw The glucosinolates are major constituents of cruciferous vegetables that have been shown to promote normal apoptosis and induce the expression of the beneficial p53 gene via an estrogen-independent action. Watercress contains isothiocyanates, but in a broader spectrum than does broccoli. The primary isothiocyanate precursor (PEiTC) in watercress functions via four specific mechanisms to maintain healthy cell division. Extracts from rosemary enhance liver metabolism of estradiol and estrone, inhibits the formation of DNA adducts, and have been shown to impede estrogen-induced growth promotion in certain tissues. http://www.lef.org/newshop/items/item00968.html Life Extension VacationsRest, Relax, and Revitalize at Club Internacional de Cancún Located on the ocean side of the Hotel Zone and looking out over Isla Mujeres, this ocean-front resort offers first class facilities and services, exquisite dinning, championship tennis courts, sporting, exploring, and exciting daytime and nightlife activities.

The Lock Up Self Storage on Plainfield Road in Willowbrook has a huge dumpster outside filled with damaged property.
"I was never thinking that something like this would happen in a climate controlled environment that this would happen," Becca Klinger said.
Klinger found out about the flooding Tuesday night and was shocked this morning when she went to see the damage.
"We lost our kids beds sets, our dining room set, our piano, our TV's and entertainment centers," Klinger added.
Klinger is between homes and thought the storage location would be dry, safe and secure. She showed FOX 32 some of the damage she said was caused by the flood water.
Klinger and other tenants said a single sprinkler over one unit malfunctioned and sprayed hundreds of gallons of water over a two hour period on Monday night. At least a dozen other renters suffered damage.
The company could not be reached for comment.
Some tenants said they lost electronics and a valuable baseball card collection. Their contracts specifically state that renters are responsible for their own property , even water damage from sprinklers.
Klinger said she was aware of the policy and purchased the minimum insurance that covers $2,000, but she estimates her loss closer to $15,000.
Steve Bernas from the Better Business Bureau said renters of storage lockers should read the fine print in all contracts and if this happens, you should call your homeowner's insurance company to see if there is a "needs peril" provision in your policy.

I know I want some form of tummy tuck and breast enhancement but I'm not sure if I need a full tummy tuck or a mini tummy tuck. How would I know? I'm a 26 year old mother of three. I'm 5ft. and 115lbs.
How to Choose Between Full and Mini Tummy Tuck?
Doctor Answers (15)
Full tummy tuck vs. mini tummy tuck vs. hybrid tummy tuck
There are no longer just two options in tummy tucks, the full and the mini tummy tuck.
The full tummy tuck is best for patients who have a lot of looseness in their skin, especially if that looseness is above the belly button. There is no substitute for a full tummy tuck in the right patient with a lot of skin looseness. The results of full tummy tucks in the right patients are spectacular.
The mini tummy tuck is best for patients who have only a skin problem (no fascial problem) just below the belly button. In our practice, this is usually limited to scar revisions of C-sections. It is NOT the best procedure for the vast majority of post-pregnancy women.
The hybrid tummy tuck (TM) is a tummy tuck that uses a short incision, but tightens the "muscles" all the way up to the breast bone, in other words the entire length of the abdomen. It is best suited for fit moms who did not have large weight gains during their pregnancies, yet they note some loose skin and looseness of the muscles. Often when they do a situp, they see a separation of the muscles. Or if they "let it out", they see a bulge in the abdomen. In almost all cases, that bulge extends well above the belly button. Therefore the mini tummy tuck is NOT a satisfactory procedure for them and they will need a hybrid tummy tuck. The hybrid tummy tuck is more difficult to perform because it must be done through small incisions and often requires endoscopic equipment.
There are many in-between procedures between these main categories as well (full tummy tuck with vertical incision in order to get a lower incision; extended hybrid tummy tuck if slightly more skin needs to be removed; flank extensions, hybrid with hernia repair and umbilicoplasty, etc)
The average length of a fully tummy tuck in our practice is 32 cm, or hip to hip. The average length of a mini tummy tuck or a hybrid tummy tuck is 15 cm. In some cases the incision size for a hybrid tummy tuck is less than 8 cm. The size of the incision is therefore less than half for a mini or a hybrid tummy tuck than it is for a full tummy tuck.
Why not just do a full tummy tuck in everybody?
Full tummy tucks leave long incisions. In fit women, they also leave high incisions or a vertical incision, usually both. This is especially true of women with high belly buttons or long waists. These incisions are not to be taken lightly as they can forever prevent the use of a bikini if the final incision is two inches below the belly button.
Web reference: http://drbrent.com/hybrid-abdominoplastyprocedure.php
Full tummy tuck vs mini tuck
About 95%of patients needing a tummy tuck need a real one not a mini. The problem with the mini is that it doesn't treat the upper abdomen at all so if you have any muscle or skin laxity above the umbilicus the mini will leave you under corrected. The mini incision isn't that much shorter and the recovery isn't that much less, so do the full in most instances.
Web reference: http://www.randcosmeticsurgery.com
A full tummy tuck is more effective than a mini in correcting loose skin and tightening the abdominal muscles.
I perform about 100 full abdominoplasties for every mini-abdominoplasty (although it happens that I am about to perform a mini-abdominoplasty today!). You have a small build and have had three children. Chances are a full tummy tuck would best treat your muscle weakness and get rid of the loose skin. With a mini, the amount of skin removed (just the skin above your pubic area) is much less and there is no tightening of the skin above the belly button. The advantage of a mini is a shorter scar, but the fact is, if the scar is kept low down within the bikini line, it is not an issue and most women want the tightest, flattest abs they can get, which is what a full tummy tuck provides. I've attached a link to this section of my website in case you want to read more or look at photos that show the scar.

Full or mini-tummy tuck
First, let's explain what a full tummy tuck versus a mini is. In a full tummy tuck the skin is lifted up all the way to the ribcage where in a mini it is only to the belly button. In a full tummy tuck, since the surgeon now has access to the muscles, if the muscles are split apart, they can be tightened from ribcage all the way down whereas the mini will only allow for tightening from the belly button down. The other big factor is loose skin above the belly button. That skin can be pulled down and tightened in a full tummy tuck but that skin will not be tighter after a mini tummy tuck. Understanding those differences you can discuss with your surgeon what you would benefit from and what type of result are you willing to accept.
Mini or full tummy tuck?
Thank you for the question.
Of course without pictures or dierct examination it is not possible due to good advice.
Having said that the mini tummy talk is an operation that produces very limited results and is very rarely indicated. It involves a shorter incision but does not address the majority of the abdominal wall issues present for most patients who present consultation. For example, the area of skin excised is quite small. The abdominal wall musculature is addressed below the umbilicus leaving the upper number wall potentially lax. The appearance of the umbilicus is not necessarily addressed sufficiently.
For most patients who have had pregnancies and/or weight loss a full abdominoplasty is necessary to achieve the desired results. Of course, there are downsides (including a longer scar and probably a longer recovery time) but for most patients the benefits outweigh the downsides. It is not unusual to see patients who've had mini tummy tuck surgery present for revisionary surgery.
It is important to work with a well experienced board-certified plastic surgeon to obtain advice (based on good ethics and judgment) to improve your chances of a successful outcome and minimize the need for further surgery.
I hope this helps.
Web reference: http://www.poustiplasticsurgery.com/Procedures/procedure_tummytuck.htm
Need to consult doctor to tell
Generally a minituck is useful only for a small amount of excess skin limited to the lower abdomen. Generally most women that I see in my practice need a full tummy tuck whenever they come in to see me. However, only a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon can determine which would benefit you more. You can find one in your area throught the website for American Society of Plastic Surgeons.
How to choose...
Deciding which procedure would be best for you a decision you and your surgeon need to decide together. I would suggest going on several consultations and discussing your desired outcome with each surgeon. Mini tummy tuck candidates are women who only have a small amount of extra skin at the front of the belly. I have noticed it is more common for women to require a standard tummy tuck that leaves an incision from hip-to-hip to achieve their desired results.
Min-tummy tuck vs full tummy tuck
A mini-TT addresses primarily the lower abdomen, where a full TT address both the upper and lower abdomen; allowing for full tightening of the abdominal muscles. It is quite rare to see a patient who is a true candidate for a mini-TT because most patients will have enough laxity or looseness of their abdominal skin to qualify for a full TT. The difference in the length of the final incision isn't much shorter with a mini-TT. A consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon will easily help to guide you as to the best procedure for you.
Best wishes,
Dr. Bruno
After three pregnancies...
you most likely need a full abdominoplasty. There are variations on the full tummy tuck that may work for you and provide more than a mini. See your board certified plastic surgeon for a consultation and discussion on the options. Good luck!
Laxity of the muscle and loose skin above the umbilicus needs a full tummy tuck
The factors used by Plastic Surgeons to determine the need for a full or mini tummy tuck are related to muscle structure and skin laxity. The muscle can become very loose after pregnancies and weight loss. If the muscle is always loose and unable to tighten, it may be a good indicator that a full tummy tuck is necessary. If the skin is lax above or around the umbilicus/belly button, it is another indication of a full tummy tuck. If the skin of the lower abdomen just hangs and the rest of the abdomen is good, then a mini tummy tuck can be used. Very commonly, liposuction will be performed with a Mini tummy tuck to contour the entire abdomen.
Ask your surgeon to see pre and post op photos of each procedure to compare your situation to other who have already had surgery.
Good Luck!

Controversial beauty queen Carrie Prejean has tied the knot.
The former Miss California USA, 23, wed Oakland Raiders quarterback Kyle Boller, 28, Friday at The Grand Del Mar hotel in San Diego, her hometown.
The 25-minute ceremony was "beautiful," a witness tells E! News. "They had cocktails on the lawn right after. Everyone seemed really happy."
Prejean wore a gorgeous one-shoulder mermaid-style gown, according to E!, while Boller and his fellow groomsmen donned black tuxedos.
After bidding farewell to her six bridesmaids, she and Boller were whisked away in a white Rolls Royce Phantom, E! reports.
The two got engaged this past February.
Prejean made headlines last April when pageant judge Perez Hilton asked her if she supported gay marriage. "In my country, in my family, I think that I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman," she replied. "No offense to anybody there, but that's how I was raised and that's how I think it should be, between a man and a woman."
Her response outraged Hilton and others in the Miss California community. Hilton launched a crude attack against her. Organizer Keith Lewis even released a statement: "As co-director of the Miss California USA, I am personally saddened and hurt that Miss California believes marriage rights belong only to a man and a woman."
Prejean only continued to irk her enemies when she began working for the National Organization for Marriage.
Scandal returned a short time later when semi-nude photos of her began hitting the web.
She almost lost her crown, but Donald Trump, who owns the Miss USA and Miss Universe organizations, allowed her to keep her title because he said "the pictures taken were fine."
On June 10, however, Prejean was fired for violating her contract and "unwillingness to make appearances on behalf" of the organization, according to pageant officials.
But in an in interview with Access Hollywood, Prejean claimed otherwise: "None of this would be happening right now if I just said, 'Yeah, gays should get married. You're right, Perez Hilton.'"
First runner-up Tami Farrell replaced her as Miss California USA.

"Losing 100 Pounds Changed My Life"
"I Did It!"
When I weighed 267 pounds, my idea of a diet and exercise program was lifting a slice of pizza from the box to my mouth," says Erica Dusi, a 21-year-old college student from Ceres, California. Not anymore. "Now I understand the importance of eating right and staying active. There's no diet magic."
By the time she was 16, Erica weighed 250 pounds and wore a size 20. "I preferred my grandmother's homemade Italian pastry to fruits and vegetables," she says. Though she was unhappy with her weight, she compensated by being outgoing. "I had a lot of friends, but deep down I thought that if I wasn't upbeat all the time, I'd be ignored."
At college, though, people noticed Erica's body before her personality, and she decided she'd had enough. "I couldn't pretend my weight didn't matter anymore. I didn't know how I was going to slim down, but I knew it was the right time for me to try."
A friend suggested she start by logging on to the USDA Web site (usda.gov) for sensible nutrition advice. She structured her diet around the food pyramid, eating more whole grains, fruits and vegetables and less saturated fat and sweets. She started walking, too, gradually building up to 45 minutes, four or five times a week. Next she added running, golf and swimming to her routine.
Soon she was losing about three pounds a week. Within a year, she'd dropped 100 pounds.
In addition to compliments on her new body, Erica received warnings that if she wasn't careful, she'd regain the weight. "I began to think of food as my enemy." She drastically cut back on calories and exercised for an hour and a half every day. As a result, she felt sluggish and moody. "I realized that these extreme measures were harming my health."
Erica returned to the sensible plan that had brought her success in the first place, and she's been able to maintain a weight of 160 pounds for two years. "I think of my body as a gift," she says. "I'm determined to do all I can to take care of it."
What do you think of this story? Leave a Comment.
I too am a 21-year-old college student. Last time I checked I weighed over 245 pounds. That is 5 pounds less than my mother. Reading this article has really motivated me to lose weight. I have recently borrowed a tredmill and will begin doing a daily one hour walk every morning before work and before bed. I'm so glad I have found this site :)11/25/2010 08:21:03 PM Report Abuse

American wit and humor
From Library Staff
From her youthful days as a vicious nerd to her tour of duty on Saturday Night Live; from her passionately halfhearted pursuit of physical beauty to her life as a mother eating things off the floor; from her one-sided college romance to her nearly fatal honeymoon, comedian Tina Fey reveals all, a... Read More »
Tina Fey's really funny and likeable, and listening to this audio book is the closest I may get to hanging out with her for a few hours. Also available in downloadable audiobook.

Since Tina Fey reads this, it is particularly enjoyable to listen to the audio book. The pdfs of the photos were a nice bonus. However, there is supposedly a video from SNL which I couldn't find. The serendipity is that I found where all of my videos I'd uploaded from my camera are stored!
Loved listening to Tina's story in her own voice. Added so much to it. She is hysterical. Great audiobook
I listened to this while at the gym. I laughed out loud all the way through.
While I'm sure reading a paper copy of this book would have tickled me, the audio version with Tina's narration had me absolutely cracking up. I would listen to it more than once!
Surprisingly good. For whatever reason I thought it would be boring and a lot of whatever but it was none of that. I've always been a Tina fan and I now see her in a different light. She's funny, interesting and real. She's the type of person I could listen to tell her stories all the time. Definitely will recommend. Can't wait for a second book.
Tina Fey has a great sense of humor and this was a great autobiography / humor book. So nice that she narrated the audiobook herself. I really loved the behind the scenes details of her work at Second City, SNL, thoughts on motherhood, and especially her reaction to the Sara Palin parodies.
Tina is the boss. She gets my respect! But she is much funnier in person (on TV) than in this audiobook -- I didn't get it.
Tina Fey's narration of Bossypants had me laughing out loud. I can relate to her description of Don Fey, her father, and felt it to be one of the funnier parts of the book. Actually listened to the book twice-and I have never desired to do so with any other audiobook. Highly enjoyable, in the Bill Bryson style.
My book club chose this as a summer light read. I ended up getting the audiobook version and am so glad that I did! Tine Fey is so funny and to hear her narrating her own story made it that much more entertaining. I will caution you that there is some off color language and stories so I never listened to it with my kids in the car. I haven't been a regular watcher of 30Rock but now I have to check it out.
What can I say about Bossypants? It was midly interesting but not exceptionally so, with nothing really worth re-telling… Or so I thought, until I was awkwardly discussing overprotective parents with my boss's mother, and had the perfect anecdote to use to discuss moms' avoidance of confrontation with caregivers. Which isn't really a situation I ever expected to be in, so it was a nice anecdote to have in the arsenal.
Beyond that, though? The book really seemed like Fey was trying too hard, like she hadn't really wanted to/felt comfortable with telling her story, and now that she was it was she was approaching it with gritted teeth. The shift from "I was an awkward kid" to "here is how I live my fancy lady life" seemed large - while she was trying to convince us that her fancy lady life is a ruse, she also seemed to make a huge distinction on her own of pre- and post- "success."
When I was searching for that quote about how old you should be before you write a memoir (obviously I didn't find it), I came across an article with the line "Sticking to a certain type of memoir can help to keep your story focused and organized. You will also have a definite framework for your writing, which will help with the writing process." Indeed. The article, (http://suite101.com/article/five-types-of-memoirs-a341145) lists five kinds of memoir: Survivor, Confession, Coming of age, Second Coming of age, and Travel. Fey's book touches on all of these topics, and never finds a central point… she touches back to "bossypants" but never manages to build it into a central theme.
Still, listening to the book on my commute kept me mildly entertained… and I guess that's the point.

4 Big-Volume Stocks Moving Higher
China Mobile
China Mobile (CHL) provides a range of mobile telecommunications services in all 31 provinces, autonomous regions and directly-administered municipalities in Mainland China as well as in Hong Kong. This stock is trading up 2.8% at $55.61 in recent trading.
Today's Volume: 893,000Average Volume: 778,417 Volume % Change: 104% From a technical perspective, CHL is bouncing to the upside here right off its 50-day moving average of $54.11 with above-average volume. This move is quickly pushing CHL within range of triggering a near-term breakout trade. That trade will hit once CHL manages to take out some near-term overhead resistance at $55.97 with high volume. Traders should now look for long-biased trades in CHL as long as its trending above its 50-day, and then once it sustains a move or close above $55.97 with volume that hits near or above 778,417 shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then look for CHL to re-test or possibly take out its next major overhead resistance level at $58.40.

Intel wants the cloud to be a bit smarter.
The company is developing technologies that would allow applications and services delivered over the Internet to know more about the client device they are being accessed from, be it a PC, a tablet, or a smartphone, and to tailor the services accordingly.
[ Also on InfoWorld: Intel invests in cloud management company. | Get the no-nonsense explanations and advice you need to take real advantage of cloud computing in InfoWorld editors' 21-page Cloud Computing Deep Dive PDF special report. | Stay up on the cloud with InfoWorld's Cloud Computing Report newsletter. ]
It doesn't sound that new: Application servers already tailor content to fit the screen of a smartphone, for example. But Intel wants to go a step further and provide detailed information about the processor type, the available bandwidth, and even the amount of battery power left.
That should allow websites and advertisers to make wider use of rich content, such as high-definition video, instead of having to cater to a "lowest common denominator." They could deliver one version of a site to customers on a high-speed Wi-Fi network, for example, and a simple Web page to customers on a weak cellular connection.
It could also benefit e-commerce sites. For example, Amazon.com could warn customers with full shopping carts that their laptop battery was running low and advise them to check out quickly, or tell them their selections will be retained if they go offline and have to log in again later.
The technology isn't complicated. Intel has published beta versions of APIs (application programming interfaces) for accessing data about a device's processor, bandwidth, and battery life. Web developers can employ the APIs by adding some fairly simple Javascript to their applications, said Daniel Chang, director of strategic alliances at NetSuite, which is piloting the technology.
NetSuite is best known for its online CRM (customer relationship management) applications, but it also hosts e-commerce websites for about 2,000 businesses. A half dozen of those stores, mostly those that want to display rich content such as high-definition video, are testing the APIs, Chang said. Gproxy, a Web design and hosting company in Miami, is part of the same pilot program.
"The technology is already there, it's just a question of adoption," Chang said.
One challenge for Intel is getting the main Web browsers to implement its APIs. The company said it's in talks with "a broad range" of service providers, software vendors and PC makers about supporting the technology, but it won't yet say who. In the meantime, e-commerce sites testing the APIs have to ask their end users to download a browser plug-in.
Intel says the processor API should work with devices based on x86 chips from other vendors. It hasn't tested it with non-Intel processors, but the API uses the CPU ID and the "processor brand string" to determine the processor type, and these are parts of the standard x86 instruction set, said Greg Boitano, marketing manager for Intel's Business Client Platform division.
"It's not necessarily exclusive to one chip provider or another. It's really more about the value you deliver through that chip," he said.
However, the processor API doesn't work with ARM-based chips, at least in its current version, cutting out most smartphones and tablets.

Using Clique Hunter (Advanced)
Using Clique Hunter on MajesticSEO.com is one of the cleverest new tools for link building on the market today, but it takes a little more knowledge (in particular of Excel) to be able to really find the ideal link targets. This short but immensely valuable presentation shows you – step by step – how to turn a list of domains which MIGHT help you rank in the search engines into a well prioritized list, excluding potentially thousands of less likely sites and relegating those with the least traffic (or the least relevancy to your competitor rankings) to the bottom of the list – giving you an awesome link candidate list which, with a bit of cut and paste, can turn into a contact management spreadsheet.
Sound has not yet been added to the presentation. This will follow in due course, but in the meantime the screen shots have helpful text added.
