Local Health Department Infrastructure Study, 1999-2000
In August 1997, NACCHO received a grant from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to conduct a nationwide study of local public health infrastructure. One of the project's objectives was to generate synergies with existing data sources, such as the NACCHO Profile, and programs, such as MAPP and Turning Point, to create a useful and relevant resource on local public health systems.
Field testing of the instrument was conducted in September 1999. In November a mail-back survey was sent to a stratified, random sample of 1,100 local health departments. Local health officials were asked about their departments' program areas, staffing configurations, jurisdictional authority, performance of public health services, workforce training needs, and partnership and collaborative activities. A total of 694 responses were received for an overall response rate of 63 percent.
Findings from this study can be found in Local Public Health Agency Infrastructure: A Chartbook, which provides an extensive look at the infrastructure of our nation's local health departments. It includes more than 60 figures and tables on the following topics:
The Chartbook can be used to compare a health department to the nationwide picture, educate others about local health departments, learn about local health departments' strengths and challenges, and help develop programs and policy for the community.

Allow Cuban Tradeby Opinion Staff
In 2010, it will be 50 years since the United States began the embargo that was supposed to bring democracy to Cuba.
That's worked well.
This week, President Obama renewed the trade ban for another year, though this month he also allowed Cuban-Americans to visit relatives pretty much whenever they want and to send relatives money. In 2004, seeking votes from anti-Castro Cuban-Americans in Miami, President Bush tightened those restrictions.
A new report by Amnesty International concludes that, rather than help average Cubans, the embargo has hurt them by restricting shipments of medicine. Dissidents in Cuba also want the embargo to end. Indeed, the restrictions on Cuba are harsher than those on Iran.
We think President Obama should end the ban next year. What do you think? Take our poll.

A Joint Course with the UCLA School of Law and the UCLA International Institute
In the Spring of 2004 the UCLA International Institute, in partnership with its Ronald W. Burkle Center, and the UCLA School of Law propose to create a unique colloquium series on Politics and International Law that will be open to law students, undergraduates of the UCLA College and the entire UCLA community.
This course begins with lectures on alternative theoretical approaches to understanding the relationship between politics and international law. The lectures will be followed by weekly presentations of a paper on politics and international law by leading law and political science scholars from the United States and abroad.
Each student must submit a 1-2 page paper critiquing each paper presented by a guest lecturer. Because student demand for the course is expected to be high and enrollment is limited, no student will be permitted to drop this course after enrolling in it. All lectures will be open to the campus community, but course enrollment is limited to thirty law students and ten Honors College students by permission of the instructor.

One of Tchaikovsky's most famous ballets, Swan Lake symbolizes more than 100 years of tradition and some of the most revered roles in classical ballet. In a performance of emotional intensity and technical mastery, the ballerina captures the essence of both eternal love and deception in the coveted dual role of Odette and Odile. Swan Lake will be performed by one of the most exciting ballet companies in the United States. Under the direction of Terrence S. Orr, Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre has built a legacy of excellence and innovation since its founding in 1969.
Featuring many PBT company dancers, this mixed repertory performance features an intriguing mix of classical, contemporary and original works choreographed by and for the performers. Performance proceeds benefit Dancers Trust, which was founded by dancers and friends of PBT to support retiring dancers through the sometimes difficult transition from full-time performing to a new career path.

A weekend of performance and creativity featuring the talented students of Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre School's Pre-Professional Division, presented at Point Park University's George Rowland White Performance Studio.
Performance of classical and contemporary works featuring over 200 students of Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre School's Student and Pre-Professional Divisions, presented on stage at the beautiful and historic Byham Theater in Downtown Pittsburgh.
Awaken the senses with the fairytale splendor of Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre's The Sleeping Beauty. Resting at the pinnacle of classical ballet, good conquers evil in the beloved story of Princess Aurora's enchanted slumber. Set to one of Tchaikovsky's most celebrated scores, The Sleeping Beauty's legendary Rose Adagio scene ranks among the most spellbinding sequences in classical ballet.
PBT gives a new full-length ballet its Pittsburgh premiere with Beauty and the Beast, an imaginative interpretation of the time-honored tale of inner beauty. From the Beast's imposing castle to the enchanted forest, Beauty and the Beast vividly illustrates the transformative power of love through striking set design, inventive choreography and a cast of fanciful characters.
Presented by: PNC Bank
Featuring three Pittsburgh premieres, PBT presents imaginative masterworks by world-renowned choreographers Jiřί Kylián, Mark Morris and Jerome Robbins. With live orchestral accompaniment, the program contrasts the eloquent agility of Kylián's striking Petite Mort, the hilarity of Robbins' clever comedy, The Concert, and the signature wit and musicality of Morris in his playful ensemble ballet, Sandpaper Ballet.
Set in imperial India of the past, love transcends all in the mesmerizing classic La Bayadère. Enveloped by a tangled love triangle, power and conspiracy trigger unearthly implications for a temple dancer and her lover. With pure classicism, La Bayadère gained fame for its climactic the "Kingdom of the Shades" scene and the stunning synchronization of the corps de ballet. La Bayadère has entranced audiences for more than a century with its epic storyline, high drama and sensational scale.

Written by Bob Steinburg
April 30, 2009
By: Bob Steinburg
A Conservative's Viewpoint
There are those abroad who hate or resent America. The reasons are varied but generally it evolves around the disparity of national wealth, prosperity and influence we have over the rest of the world. America continues to be a magnanimous nation. We've shed blood to guarantee the freedom of nations abroad. We have also helped rebuild the nations who were our enemies. We should be proud of our benevolent legacy, in spite of the occasional ingratitude.
But America is not perfect. We've made mistakes; sometimes sticking our nose where it doesn't belong. No matter how well intentioned our motives, we have been prone at times to act, either because of bad intelligence, as some would argue in the case of our entry into the Iraq War out of our innate fundamental instinct to help those in distress. America's overall goodness however, will continue to be scorned by those who view individual freedoms, liberties and opportunity differently.
While resentment and anger comes primarily from elsewhere, it's also being bred from within. Liberals have a very difficult time making their case on any issue. As a result they often resort to demonizing the opposition, even putting at risk our national security.
Liberals are aided by elements of the main-stream media. Instead of objective and unbiased news gathering and reporting, their message often reflects an orchestrated echo chamber of liberal bias. Media outlets like MSNBC, CNN and the New York Times are losing viewers and subscribers in droves. Apparently folks aren't buying the liberal message they're peddling. According to the Audit Bureau of Circulations and Nielsen Media Research, the only two major news sources continuing to grow are the Wall Street Journal and Fox News.
Last week the Times displayed an editorial cartoon depicting the Statue of Liberty holding in her raised hand a whip, replacing the torch she has held as a beacon to freedom seeking people since 1884. This reflects the America the left often sees.
Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y. recently said on MSNBC, "The world has changed. The old Reagan philosophy that served conservatives well politically from 1980 to about 2004 and 2006 is over. But the hard right, which still believes in traditional values kind of arguments and strong foreign policy, all that is over."
While the Times, Schumer and others on the left were busy beating up on America, another event was taking place in Pakistan. The Taliban, in the name of radical Islam, riddled a man and woman accused of adultery with over thirty bullets; firing round after round, long after their bodies had fallen limp. This is the stark contrast between the ideals and justice system of a free nation built on conservative Judeo-Christian values and those radical Islamic terrorist who seek to submit us to their ruthless ideology.
President Barack Obama was advised by four previous CIA Directors, including current Director Leon Panetta, to oppose the release of photos and tapes revealing enhanced interrogation techniques used on known and suspected terrorists. But apparently Obama is considering doing so anyway. The far left wing of his party is so contemptuous of George W. Bush and his former administration that they will even jeopardize our national security to further demonize them.
Our enemies will use this national security information as a recruiting tool to further fuel the hatred of America. Our ssoldiers, diplomats and tourists will now be at additional risk, simply because of vengeful politics. The left hopes they can permanently marginalize the GOP, destroying our two party system of government, thus paving the way toward a liberal oligarchy.
Many Americans don't understand the kind of enemy we're're facing. They will do whatever necessary to achieve radical Islamic dominance over the world. Any tactic, no matter how heinous, is acceptable. Yet our military and intelligence agencies are now restricted to the Army Field Manual which allows us to secure from terrorist captives only their names and country of origin since they have no rank or serial number, placing out intelligence gathering at a severe disadvantage.
Enhanced interrogation techniques have been used since the dark days following 9-11. They include water boarding, sleep deprivation, loud music and other non- life threatening techniques. These methods have yielded information that has saved American lives. In a perfect world these techniques of interrogation would be unacceptable. But we are facing an enemy that wants nothing less than to kill us.
Michael Scheuer, author and a 22 year veteran of the CIA and former head of the bin-Laden desk, was a witness to some of the enhanced interrogation techniques used against terrorist captives. He states unequivocally that the information garnered as a result of these tactics, saved American lives, not once, but on many occasions. And that is a president's primary responsibility-protecting American lives at any cost.
The Washington Post reported in Dec. `02 that Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Ca. and three other members of a bi-partisan congressional group met in secret with the CIA. They viewed the harsh techniques that were being utilized to extract vital information from terrorist detainees. For Pelosi and others on the left to now sanctimoniously feign outrage by disavowing any prior knowledge, while at the same time considering retribution against the previous administration, is the height of arrogance and hypocrisy.
Playing politics with national security is a dangerous game. But apparently that's exactly what the Democrats on the left have decided to do. Yet one can only wonder how far a liberal would go to save the life of their loved one threatened by a terrorist. Would they go beyond the restrictions imposed by the Army Field Manuel? I think so. And that's what makes this entire episode nothing more than a sordid partisan witch hunt.

Don't ask me how I thought of using bottlecaps in the bottom of it…I really don't know, I just wanted something fun and funky. I spray painted a whole bunch of them in my three favorite summertime colors, Blue Ocean Breeze, Ivy Leaf and Pumpkin Orange, and some white, all from Krylon. It actually took some time to collect this many caps, I wanted to do this earlier in the summer, it just took a while! Just a word of caution if decide to try this project, make sure the handles are high enough, giving you plenty of room to contain the fluid and whatever you are submerging. At least half inch clearance.
I started laying the caps in and played around with the pattern until I was happy. The staggered pattern really worked with not too much wasted space (it wasn't a perfect fit).
Next, I used what is called acrylic water to pour over the caps. Now this 2 part epoxy is sold at HL and Michael's, but I found it the cheapest at Walmart, in their Floral Dept. I followed the directions, mixing the compounds and poured it on. It's self-leveling, which is great! The tough part was waiting the 48 hours, because it cannot be disturbed at all, and my house is full of disturbances!!! Luckily, the acrylic hardened without any incidents, and was ready for use!

Flip-flops are the ultimate warm weather footwear... light, breathable, easy on, easy off. But, with most flip flops, there are limits. Sure, they're fine for a quick errand, but wear 'em too long, and your feet get sore. Not these, though.
They're open and breathable like you want, with more support than other flip flops have to offer. Perfect for day-long trips to the beach, a stroll through the park, or a Saturday afternoon at the mall. No sore feet after, either. It's the best of both worlds, here for a great low price!

Ah, the romance of train travel. It brings to mind images of the Orient Express, with its luxurious carriages and lavish cuisine pulling out of Paris in 1883. Perhaps such exotic and dreamy pictures of the mind sparked the growth of train travel in Europe? Well, regardless of its beginnings, European train travel has evolved into a sleek, churning picture of success today.
It's called the Eurail.
The Eurail is a giant network of "linked up" trains that stretches throughout Europe. This network, made up of railway systems from a multitude of European countries, is one of the best – and least expensive – ways to travel around Europe. Budget-friendly, safe and popular among younger travelers, the Eurail simplifies the process of traveling from country to country.
Now, we're not talking typical train travel here. True, the Eurail does feature some of the standard trains most people are accustomed to seeing in the United States. But, it also features high speed, scenic and luxurious hotel trains that go above and beyond what we call, "standard."

I know a lot of people are on the DF server and not HyperLobby
I want to what the DF client is
Just wanted to know if I would have to open up my network on the DF like HL
Maybe you make your questions clearer.
Yes, there seem to be a lot of complete misunderstandings.Quote from: Bf-109guyI know a lot of people are on the DF server and not HyperLobbyMost of the Servers in HL are actually Dogfight and Dedicated Servers.Only Coops are non-dedicated.
Quote from: Bf-109guyI want to what the DF client isIt is the UP3 Version of a dedicated dogfight server. It is not a game version you can actually use to play the game yourself, because it lacks all the graphical output. It's just a DOS-Box of the game. You and others can than connect to this dedicated server.
Quote from: Bf-109guyJust wanted to know if I would have to open up my network on the DF like HLI am not sure about 'opening the network' for HL, but if you want to set up a dedicated dogfight server you have to open the corresponding ports in your router. Otherwise nobody will be able to connect to your server.I don't think this is a big threat to your security.

Great food and service – The service and food were great for our entire family, ages 5 - 70. The waitress was knowledgeable about gluten free diets. They offered to make any menu item in a Gluten Free version. The GF dish that was ordered Sesame Chicken was sauteed without the breading in a special GF sauce. It was served with GF soy sauce on the side. The food came out perfectly and hot and was well seasoned and flavored. Portions were large, and prices were reasonable. The dumplings were large and fresh. The 5 year old loved the pan fried noodles and ate many of the vegetables. The fortune cookies were not stale and had decent fortunes. Plus the entire building was extremely clean. The only con was they forgot the edamame we ordered as an appetizer. However, since the food came so fast, we didn't even miss it, and were not charged for it.
Where was the chicken in the Kung pao? – I enjoy the other Suzi's (north), and have eaten at the location before, so I was disappointed that the food was not up to par. We started with Peking ravioli's (dumplings) and they were burned on the edges; the kitchen had tried to scrape off the burnt edges, like you would a burnt piece of toast. When I complained about the dumplings, I got a shrug from the waiter--then he walked away. Since my dad was munching away on them anyway, I couldn't really return the dish.
Next, we ordered kung pao chicken and mongolian beef. The chicken dish came out beautifully--lots of peanuts piled on top. Then we dug in and found more peanuts--and some little pieces of chicken. Mongolian beef--same thing. We were very underwhelmed.
Suzi's Chinese Grill – My boyfriend and I always go to Suzi's and eat sushi, it so fresh and tasted. But today is diff. we walked away with out finish the food. We were so upset about the sushi chef. I think his name is TOM. (Short little Asia guy the servers all call Tom) he uses his hand to cover up when he sneezed, didn't even wash his hand and keep making the sushi. That just makes me so sick. Please watch him when he makes your sushi you never know how cleans is the HAND. We'll make sure people that we know WILL NOT go to SUZI'S anymore.
Best Shushi I have had anywhere in the world! – This is the best Sushi I have had anywhere in the world! This includes Japan, Europe and allof the major cities in the US. The rolls are inovative and complex with diverse flavors. The guys at the counter will make up rolls for you to your liking. The Chinese menu is typical Suzi's. A little more upscale that your typical Chinese menu. I prefer this location to the Anderson and S. Lamar locations.
Skip this location – Something seemed better on my last visit. And then I realized they may have gotten rid of the worst host ever. This guy was rude, and disgrace to any place he works. The food was good but the service still needs work. Suzi, I know your Korean but your service does your culture no great honor. Please restore honor to the service in your business.
lunch hot spot – decent everyday chinese food. the hot and sour soup on the other hand is a slam dunk. the entrees are all okay, nothing great and not worth going for. but on those cold days when you are craving soup, get a big bowl of suzi's hot and sour. you will be up and running in no time.

Looking good so far. :)
What I'd suggest is try and introduce a wider set of values to you digital stuff, as well as figure out how different surfaces work with light.
Otherwise this is looking badass, keep it up!

Nice studies and I agree with Rotor about your digital work ! Anyway keep on working, I would love to see more !!
Thanks guys ;)
I've been pretty busy cuz I've got a second job. So there was no time for studies. But I've worked a bit on this elf chick portrait. Still WIP. Ugh I feel like a shit today. Going back to bed. Cheers ;)
Awesome studies and the wip looks pretty cool too!
Keep 'em coming!
Thanks mate ;)
I hardly draw anything from last two days. Being a little sick so I had a hard time to force myself to do anything. So here are only some figure drawings. I was thinking to start a daily streem to force myself doing more studies. Still need to figure out at what time I'll streem. Anyway when I know something I'll post here. Just in case someone is interested ;p. Thats all, peace!
Sure...we're interested! :) It's always good to see another artist workin at the craft...seein' all those studies!
Your pencils have improved. But really. Not saying just to make
one more reply, it is really that way, I can see that you are
a fast improver. And by that, I mean, every time you touch
the pencil or the pen you made one more step toward your
success. I bet that you would make a mega leap in your skills
in only one week, if you would decided that way. You have
the talent and lots of things come easier to you. And of
course I admire that you are drawing even when you are
not feeling well. Most often when I feel sad or bad I do not
touch the pencils at all. So there is one more top quality that
you have. The digital is looking great, I like her huge melons,
trying to pop out from under her shirt. She is a hot one, I saw
it right from the start.
Awesome book so far... I would suggest moar studies of the www.posemaniac.com variety or for more complex ones... http://www.pixelovely.com/gesture/index.php
I'll be watching :) (subscribed)
I agree with Plissken, your pencils have improved a great lot. :)
And your latest digital portrait is looking pretty realistic, keep up the good work my friend. :)
@Jephyr X
Thanks ;)
I'm glad that you think my pencils has improved. But I must disagree with you. I'm not talented. I'm simply trying to draw as much as I can and learn as fast as I can. That's it. Thanks for visiting and comment ;).
@Mat Kaminski
I don't really like posemaniacs. Those models are far from what human body looks in reality. Muscles are not affected by gravity, poses are to stiff. It can be usefull though, but I don't think it should be used for learning purpose. Thanks for subscribing. I look forward to see you more around here ;). Cheers.
Thank you ;3.
Here are some hand studies I did from Hogarth's Drawing Dynamic Hands. Pretty good book. And could you look on this elf protrait I'm doing. She's pretty fucked up and I have no idea how to rescue this image.
I'll be streeming everyday between 9-10pm GMT+1. Follow me on twitter to stay informed.
Streamin' in 5 minutes. http://www.livestream.com/ramarea
This newest one (the male above) shows a great stride forward in your painting skills.
I know it's not from life, but it makes for a great improvement in your digital painting.
Keep coming :D
Wow man, didn't looked at your book for a while. Nice work! You are really getting good at painting. Keep going, I think I will try to study some photo's as well.
@Mat Kaminski
Thank you ;)
Thanks ;) Yeah, do as many high quality studies as you possibly can. It's a best way to improve. And thanks for visiting my stream, sorry for not sayin' 'hi' but I don't have two monitors and I forgot about the chat ;P. I guess it's time to buy second monitor ;).
I'm done with this study. I've fucked up so many things but I've learned a bit.
Btw. I have a problem with pen pressure. I can't turn it off. Do you have any idea how to fix it? ;<
Great studies bud,the improvement is profound even in the last few images.
Come and join my evening stream, starting in five minutes http://www.livestream.com/ramarea

Thanks guys for all kind words! ;3
Hands, hands, hands.
good studies m8! :D some long fingers here and there but .. overal great dynamic in them! good job dude! :D
Hey there mate. Howdy? Good to see some new interesting work added to your SB. I wont go through every post since time is an issue, but ill mention my opinion on most of your work.
# 134 I always like to see some good concepts. 2nd one Is the most interesting one for me. Good work.
# 145 These mech designs caught my eye. Lack of colors dulls my interest but not a lot. Couple of detailed work will help.
# 158 haha I still remember your last Piggy story. Good work here and nice use of colors even most of em are primary colors (or nearly).
# 163- Unique concept! I like it a lot although you could have done more with the backdrop. Tis little distracting and conflicting with the foreground. Nevertheless, Good job!
# 189 Great work here mate. Good use of colors too. Good old MK! I think your previous studies are paying off. Try detailing it more once you learn enough to confidently do it.
# 205 Interesting concept here but needs more work I think. glaudarien certainly left a good critique that you should pay attention to.
# 223 Some good speed-paints. I like the 1st one a lot and the complementary color scheme you have used. You still need to work on the overall lighting and the contrast of the image and try to clearly define a focal point (point of interest). Dont worry more practice will remedy this.
# 232 Hey good CHOW piece. Although the brushwork looks little blobby, Id say its a good start. Keep going.
# 242 Good lighting and atmospheric effects. Still needs work on your brushwork.
# 251 Spot on! Much better than the last CHOW piece. Good brushwork too. Could have used some sharp highlights on that armor but thats a minor thing. Well done!
# 274 Hey nice work here. I like the way you have rendered the clothing.
Overall I see a big improvement on your paintings. You still need more work on your lighting and brushwork but those come with experience. Keep doing more studies as you have done and try to increase the frequency of doing studies. You are definitely on the right track mate. keep it up!
Great hand studies! Looks like they're improving! :)
Man, it's so cool that you're streaming so often, wish i had the perseverance to
do something like that, haha.
Keep up the studies mate! :)
Come and keep me company while I suck at art. http://www.livestream.com/ramarea
Nice hand studies :)
Streaming in five! www.livestream.com/ramarea
Thanks man xd
Hi, thanks for comment. I appreciate your crit ;) I realize that I need to work on pretty much everything xD
Thanks ;) Feel free to visit me while I'm streaming xd It's always good to have someone around xd
Thank you ;)
Finished study and personal piece.

"A perversely pleasurable mixture of pop psychology and slasher movie sleaze… Frodo has gone homicidal. And it feels so good." — Drew Taylor, Indiewire
Producers: Alexandre Aja, Thomas Langmann, William Lustig
Screenplay: Alexandre Aja, Grégory Levasseur. Based on the film by William Lustig
Photography: Maxime Alexandre
Editor: Baxter
Production designer: Stefania Cella
Costume designer: Mairi Chisholm
Sound: Zsolt Magyar, Emmanuel Augeard, François Joseph Hors
Music: Rob
With: Elijah Wood (Frank), Liane Balaban (Judy), Nora Arnezeder (Anna), Megan Duffy (Lucie), Jan Broberg (Rita), Genevieve Alexandra (Jessica), Sammi Rotibi (Jason), Joshua De La Garza (Martin Nunez), America Olivo (Frank's mother)
Festivals: Cannes (Midnight Screenings) 2012
Now here's one for the head-scratcher file: a remake of an infamous 80s slasher flick with sweet, innocent Elijah Wood in the role once played by the late, great, bloated and sweaty Joe Spinnell. Not novel enough? How about the whole film being mesmerisingly shot via first-person POV? A voyeuristic script with a sense of humour from Alexandre Aja (Haute Tension)? A phenomenal performance from French actress-singer Nora Arnezeder? A mind-blowing 80s-style synth score from Rob that is reminiscent of prog rockers Goblin and John Carpenter? Did we mention that Elijah Wood is slicing people up and losing his effin' mind because all he cares about are his damn mannequins? Yeah, you're curious, right? — Ant Timpson "Everything just falls into place… from the performances to the sleaze-filled streets at night and the phenomenal, pulsing electronic soundtrack. Maniac is a film that will challenge you, shock you, and disturb and repel you." — Gareth Jones, Dread Central

Clinical Consultation
What kind of comfort care will my patient receive?
Your patient will receive a variety of care, individualized upon assessment. Our specialized clinicians can provide consultation for pain and symptom management, as well as quality of life planning for your patient. We can also help facilitate decision making processes by aiding in intra/interdisciplinary communication and your communication with pediatric patients & their families.
Which patients and families would benefit from my referral?
Any of your pediatric patients who are coping with pain and/or other symptoms (anxiety, nausea, fatigue, etc.) related to chronic or life threatening conditions will benefit. Although patients will benefit from services when decisions about care and treatment options have become problematic, palliative care can be provided to children at any stage of a life threatening illness and can be provided in conjunction with curative treatments.
Triggers to contact the Children's Comfort Care Program team
- a patient experiencing unresolved pain or other distressing symptoms
- a patient experiencing a rapid decline in health status
- a patient experiencing deciding among curative and various comfort care treatment options
- a patient with a life threatening or chronic illness
What services will the Children's Comfort Care Program members facilitate?
- Assisting the patient's medical teams with guidance in pain and symptom management
- Facilitating emotional, and spiritual support
- Facilitating family coping skills, communication, and decision making
- Assisting with quality of life planning and wishes for your patient
How can I make a referral?
A referral can be made by faxing in a CCCP team referral form, which is also on the forms portal under the key word "comfort." The referral must be completed and signed by the attending physician or nurse practitioner. Other members of the health care team who desire a consultation may bring patient care issues to the team in the Comfort Corner (Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, Suite 3-3207) and consult with one of our clinicians. We are a consult service and do not admit patients under our service.
Clinical Service Hours:
MONDAY-THURSDAY: 9am – 5pm.
We are not a 24 hour service. Patient referrals are triaged by the clinical team by level of urgency (see triage criteria on referral form for level of urgency).

The handles are a metallic blue that is a really great shade that is complemented well by the gray flannel. The name of the bag says, "small", but it's a pretty big bag. I can carry my tablet in my bag with no issues and have plenty of room for other things. We got this on sale which made it an even better deal. I have a few other Tory bags and have never been disappointed! January 3, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Roxanne Love my Emmy Tote! Very happy with my order! It is very practical and elegant at the same time. I was very pleased with the packaging and the perfume sample was a nice touch. My order was delivered within days, just in time for the Holidays. Thank you for the great service! January 3, 2014

Rated 5 out of 5 by alansmom Great Style This tote looks much better in person than in the online photos. The metallic leather trim is real sparkly and a lovely shade of blue -- both the color and the texture contrast nicely with the darker flannel blue on the body of the bag. The small size is actually a roomy tote. The logo is a nice small size that doesn't overwhelm. A very stylish bag! January 2, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Teta Emmy Small Tote The tote was very pretty and I loved the way you packaged the product along with a sample of your Tory Burch perfume. It was a gift to my daughter and she loved it and will use it to carry her ipad and anything else that she wants to carry in her purse. The tote was the perfect size, not to small and not too big. January 2, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by kino1024 beautiful bag I bought the Tote for my mom as a christmas present...she loved it! January 2, 2014

Letter from Tom Voss
Chairman of the Board, President & CEO, Ameren
Ameren is proud of its long history of hiring military veterans, who are interested in working for one of the largest utilities in the Midwest. Being a military veteran myself, I know that the transition to civilian life can sometimes be difficult. But often those with military experience have the skills for specific positions needed in the utility industry.
Ameren's military recruiting strategy includes conducting or attending nationwide events, from base visits to career fairs. Ameren also uses multiple online resources to reach out to veterans. In addition, we provide security and support to our employed reservists and their families, through continued benefits when they are called to active duty.
Because of our offerings, we were recently named a Top 100 military-friendly employer by G.I. Jobs, a nationally-recognized magazine that helps provide training and career opportunities for veterans.
More than 400 of Ameren's 8,500 employees have served in the military. I would like to acknowledge the strength and bravery of all veterans throughout our company. All of us at Ameren thank them for their dedicated service not only to our country, but to our customers as well.

Ok food and terrible service – The service is really what drags this place down more than anything else. The food is decent but nothing that special.
Two thumbs down.....
Would recommend this restaurant. good food, but the parking is horrible
Poor service, sub-standard beef – We arrived before going to the theatre. Service was lackluster and the beef was gristle quality. If you want to try different kinds of sake they have quite a collection, but if you want good beef go somewhere else!
I love this place! – I eat here every time I go to the Paramount Theater which is pretty often to see shows over the last few years and this place is so fast and the food is really good! Just went again had tickets to Xanadu and the server was so friendly and fast and we ate like $60 worth of sushi ...we were really in the mood LOL and it all came out fast and fresh! They make good drinks here too! This place is always packed so make a reservation and far as I am concerned if your going to a show at the Paramount try this place!! Yum!
Avoid this restaurant – On a recent visit my appetizer arrived AFTER I had finished my entree. I complained about the service and I was asked to leave the restaurant and not return.
Dissapointed – A friend and I decided to take our best friend to Dragonfish for her birthday dinner.(we had never been before.)
We did not wait long to sit, even thought it was a saturday evening. We sat at a great table outside, had ballons and gifts and informed our server that it was our friends birthday.
Let me just say that I have worked in a resturant before, I know that it is definitly not easy, however the neglegence and disrespect that our server gave us was so incredible that for the first time in my life, I did not tip on the bill.
I was horrified. The food all came out at different times, we had to beg for water, and it took us literally 25 minutes to get our check. I had to walk inside and ask the hostess if we could please get our check and leave the resturant! I will never waste my money or time there ever again. I have now had several friends also try this cafe and they have also agreed the service was terrible.
As a side note to those willing to try it still:
The food was pretty decent, and there was plenty of variety on the menue, the portions of the entrees were just "ok" and the prices are not unreasonable.
Poor service – I was really excited to come try this place out and I finally had the chance to. When I got there everything was fine at first than I began realizing the slow service and the slow manager working at the time. Trying to get the waitress's attention was a nightmare!
The presentation of their food was really nice thought, but the taste was mediocre nothing special, if you want to try head for the 30% off tab times at least you won't fee like it wasn't a complete waste.
I will not being going back there fore sure!
Great Happy hour!! – Great place to get sushi! I am always looking for places that have sushi and have other options as well for my husband who does not eat sushi...this place fit the bill! The food was great and the atmosphere was 'upscale cozy'. Get there early, the happy hour seating fills up fast!
Way Overrated! – First of all the staff was horrible. The server ran to our table & started speaking even before he reached us speaking at a 1000 words per second. His first line was "what would you like?" in .2 seconds. Feeling rushed, I quickly ordered & he bolted off faster than he even arrived.
The great thing was that the food came out within 5-7 minutes. I was really impressed with that, but that is where it would end. I have had better spicy crab & california rolls at Safeway in the deli aisle. All the rolls were premade earlier in the day & the avocado had turned brown. Also the ingredients were all soggy. The chicken potstickers literally tasted just like the frozen cheap ones at Costco, but less tasty.
Not only were the rolls bad, they only came with only 3 small pieces each. For $3, it's not much of a happy hour deal. I definitely recommend Wasabi Bistro or Umi over this place. Though they may take longer, at least they make the food when you order it & not just chill it for hours premade.

This has been a rainy and cold introduction to summer. I am in awe of the deep green growth in my lawn and garden and the trees are so healthy-looking and full. Watering bills are lowered and caring for my weed-free sodded lawn has paid-off.
You see, I am disabled by chemicals and springtime for me is like a high-powered game of dodgeball. In the last month, I got sick from the herbicide spraying at QWEST -- I was exposed to its volatile outgassing at the Post Office and at Kate's Restaurant. The yard at QWEST was sprayed with a combination of herbicides – Krovar and 2, 4D Ester. Both of these herbicides are listed as carcinogens on the company's MSDS sheet. My survival requires that I become somewhat of an expert on chemicals and their unique forms of impacting people, animals and surrounding environments. These chemicals are impacting Ridgway. They can persist in the soil up to three years, move in the groundwater, impact birds, increase the risk of lymphoma in dogs and cause cancer in humans. This particular form of 2, 4-D travels off-site in the air and is breathed in by unsuspecting Ridgway citizens going about their business at the Post Office, health food store etc.
The Round-Up sprayed at the firehouse cut me off from traveling on the bordering road. Round-Up has a minimum drift of 66 feet from a ground application. Spraying it in proximity to our populated, toxin-free park is counter-productive to the health and well-being of the park lawns and plantings, not to mention the increasing numbers of pets, children and adults using the park in the warm months. Round-Up has a poisoning effect on humans and shows its presence in any of the following ways: eye irritation, coughing and lung congestion, skin irritation, cardiac problems and genetic damage in pregnant women. Dogs can die from exposure to Round-Up.
OK, OK, I guess you now know it is not good for any of us – including this beautiful valley we call home. I really wish to clear up some common misconceptions. When you spray herbicides and pesticides on your property, you are most often exposing your innocent neighbors to poisonous chemicals. Without drift laws to protect the neighbors, this becomes an ETHICAL DECISION on the part of the sprayer. I am perfectly clear that it is not a question of legal right to spray, it is a question of conscious understanding of the impact on all concerned. The decision to spray toxic herbicides, once educated on the impact, becomes ethical and moral.
I am your canary, I react immediately to these herbicide poisons. My body does not have to grow a cancer to know that herbicide sprays are injurious.
So, what's the answer? I love my dandelion-free lawn and my weed-free driveway. Safe products without all these poisonous side-effects are available. I use them, Danny Powers in our town park uses them and Orvis Hot Springs has gone GREEN. GREEN GUARDIAN is available by calling 1-877-646-2900. I have contacted Park Nursery and Camelot (Montrose) to carry Green Guardian's "Everything Must Go" and "Weed and Feed." Trust me – they work better and faster.
I appeal to both private citizens and private businesses located in the town of Ridgway, you can help make Ridgway a GREENER and healthier town by committing to non-toxic weed and lawn care. In conjunction with the present national emphasis on transparency and greener decisions, we too, as a committed community, can accomplish a more transparent and more environmentally ethical approach to weed and lawn care.
I continue to express my gratitude to Danny Powers for teaching us all about safe lawn and weed care and for creating safe, non-toxic parks. Get well soon, Danny. We miss you.
– Jean McDonnell Ridgway Community Garden Update
We're nearly past frost date and looking forward to putting in the garden. We have four work groups ready to go at this time, which is twice as many as this time last year! Robyn Cascade has one organized, Tami Hodges and Jessica have the children's group, Voyager Program is training this week and the Colorado State University Master Gardener Program is a welcome new addition. It's never too late to grab your friends and neighbors and start another one.
Our heirloom, organic seed collection is here, so we're all set to go there. We will run out of existing beds soon, so the first priority is creation of new ones. Unfortunately, the Community Garden Toolshare rototiller is inoperable at the moment. One way we could serve our community would be to organize a posse to facilitate its repair. It is at Tomten Farm, probably still on its trailer. This machine is a monster, and so would require very strong people to move it and use it. Darren Cloud of Buckhorn Mountain Farm helped us out last year. It would be great if some of you really strong people out there who wish to help could take this on.
I contacted Home Depot hoping for donation of drip irrigation materials. They have desisted in making donations, citing that recipients of donated materials were reselling them. They would give us a $5 coupon though (!) Think about that the next time you spend a few hundred bucks over there! I'm working on GJ Pipe and Lowe's. Any ideas, cash donations or materials (tax-deductible) are welcome.
We are also in need of olefin fiber fabric, aka weed barrier, to create the paths, and a fence repair crew.
By the end of this week we should have a pretty good idea of the scheduling, which is important once the rain stops, the cold weather clears and watering will become necessary.
Thanks to everyone who have self-initiated gardening so far this year!

- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Grease a 20 x 30cm baking or roasting tin and line with baking parchment. To make the sponge batter, beat the butter, flour, sugar, baking powder, eggs, yogurt, vanilla, cocoa and half the coffee in a large bowl with an electric whisk until lump-free. Spoon into the tin, then bake for 25-30 mins until golden and risen and a skewer poked in comes out clean. Drizzle with some of the remaining coffee.
- Cool in the tin while you stir the icing sugar into the mascarpone. Spread over the cooled cake, dust with a little cocoa and scatter with the coffee beans.
Recipe from Good Food magazine, August 2010
Comments, questions and tips
Just made this cake. Certainly would not recommend it, the mixture while moist just crumbles and does not hold together at all. I made the icing with soft cheese as it was offered as an option and the mixture was far too sloppy. All in all this recipe resulted in a mess. Although edible it looks nothing like the picture and the result was disappointing to say the least.
...this is a fantastic cake, I adored it, it is extremely easy to make my only issue with it is the baking instructions are completely incorrect. It states 25-30 minutes in the recipe - I used a very small tin and even at that my cake took at least 45-50 minutes before a skewer came out clean / dry. I thought the extra cooking time might affect the crumb / cake texture but it was stunningly light. I brought it into work also and everyone loved it. I had extra cake mix left over (my fault due to a small cake tin) so I made muffins out of the extra and they worked out lovely also.
I can highly recommend the flavours etc.,. just watch your cooking times and double check that it is fully cooked through with a skewer.....
Delicious and so easy!
Tasty, delicate cake, easy to prepare and in the oven within minutes.
Before taking out, check with the wooden stick - must come out dry. My cake needed about 50 minutes in 160C, fan.
I used less butter (200g) but don't think it affected the cake.
My colleagues at work loved it :)
Highly recommended.
A total disaster ! I am experienced at baking and have cooked daily for many years, often adventurous recipes, but this was awful. I could see something was wrong even during the cooking process, there was evidence of far too much butter bubbling around the tray. I followed the recipe exactly, and all instructions (although cooked at bit longer as it was soft in the middle after the required cooking time), and ended up with something that looks like a thick stodgey unrisen 'bread pudding' type mass. I have double checked through the recipe. nothing was missing and everything was followed. Very disappointing.
Something went terribly wrong with this recipe. As other comments, the cooking time is incorrect. I baked mine for about 55 min at 160 (fan) and had to increase the temp for another 10 mint. When I cut it the morning after I realised the centre was still undone!
You need very strong coffee to really taste the coffee flavour, otherwise you end up with a very insipid cake. I'd also suggest adding a bit of coffee to the icing to make it tastier.
This cake took the full 35 minutes to cook, even in my rangemaster, which cooks everything very quickly! The cake turned out delicious - very moist, as it should be. My only criticism (hence rating) is that the topping was too much - if I make it again, then I'll ensure only half the quantity of mascarpone and icing sugar. Then it will be perfect!
Can't seem to select a star rating, but I'll give it a 4/5.
So disappointed!
The first time I made this cake, it took so long to bake, I thought I'd done something wrong, and I ended up throwing it away. What a waste of ingredients.
Just checked my second attempt after 30 minutes, and it's still raw in the middle, surely someone should amend this recipe, as I now see I'm not the only one to find it needs so much more time to cook.
I'm really peeved as it does take quite a lot of ingredients, and I'm now worried this second cake will end up in the bin.
What a great recipe! The best cake I have made to date! My Tips:
Put the whole 100ml of coffee into the cake when mixing the ingredients, rather than pouring half onto the cake after.
Bake for 45-50 rather than 35 (but this does depend on your oven -do a check after 35, but be very quick - do not open the door of the oven other than to do this check!)
Add a small amount of coffee to the icing. In general use a good quality coffee - I used a Kenyan coffee - I think this makes such a difference!
Set the icing on the cake for 1 hour before cutting out of the mould. This will stop the icing from spilling over the cake!
This cake is INCREDIBLE - it is so soft and light - I love baking and have never been that great at it, but I believe this cake is fool proof! EVERYONE has absolutely loved it!! :)
What a disappointment! I made this with my kids and they were very excited about the outcome. We followed the recipe without deviation and felt the sponge wasn't firm and to be honest, lacked flavour. The frosting of cream cheese and icing sugar was a disaster, and I would ask that the recipe should have pointed out that cream cheese should be used straight from the fridge, as I was unaware of this and my frosting was far too runny . Won't be trying this again .
I was so delighted when I came across this.i had most of the ingredients in stock so only had a few things extra to buy.it was so simple to put together and tasted great before going into the oven.after half hour I checked cake which was A lovely golden colour but not quiet cooked yet so I put it in for another fifteen mins covered with tin foil so it wouldn't burn. Left to cool and iced.so disappointed when I cut it open to share around and found that it still could have done with more time in the oven (was more like fudge).ready put me of making something different.
This Easter my family wanted to do something different than our traditional Easter meal. Because my son visited Londen some weeks ago and very much liked it, I decided to hold his feeling for a while by preparing a afternoon tea instead. (At least my Dutch interpretation of it, could use some tips on the real english way).
Took some recipes of this side and prepared them. This was one of the winner closely followed by the Victoria Sponge.
Thanks for sharing.
