What is a parent's role in defining/dictating a child's fashion? From clothing, to hair, to piercings, to tattoos, where does a parent's input end and a child's right to self-expression begin?
Holly DeSouza
A parent recently told me they wish the Wakefield school system would adopt a dress code that was not as strict as a uniform but far more strict that what she has seen her first grade son's classmates wearing. As I look at my daughter after she demanded to dress herself today I lean towards town intervention to make my job as the enforcer easier. To give you a visual, she is wearing a pair of bright blue capri yoga pants from last year's gymnastics class with a striped shirt of many colors, and bright blue and purple Keen sandals. Today was one day I was quite happy to stay in the backyard and play instead of doing any errands for fear someone would judge her by her outfit.
I do not remember having complete authority over what I could wear when I was growing up; however, I do remember being allowed to pick out my own clothes starting somewhere in elementary school. There were loose guidelines on what I could buy. I knew I had to wear season-appropriate and event-appropriate clothing and I don't remember it being an issue. That said, I remember my sister changing either on the bus or hitting the bathroom the minute she got to school to complete her outfit. I also remember how packed the bathrooms were with girls and Cover Girl or Maybelline at the beginning of any given school day.
Is being slightly embarrassed by your child's fashion sense worse than hindering them from showing their individuality? I am not completely sure which option I like better. I will put my foot down when it comes to anything permanent and make certain there is a family discussion before anything is done. Case in point: I truly believed my freshman year that three earring holes in each ear was the coolest and most fashionable. Many years later my ears are back to the original one earring each with two scars. Alas, I loved it at the time.
I am leaning towards always allowing my daughter to express her individuality as long as it is within certain boundaries. No tattoos or piercings of any kind that will lead towards deformities later in life. No outfits that beg for sickness to follow (shorts and flip flops with a foot of snow on the ground). Body parts that need to stay private will be covered at all times. Beyond that, if she wants to pick out her own clothes and express her own style I will embrace it. In the same vein, as a backup I will plan to run the majority of my errands when my husband is home.
Tasha Schlake Festel
My daughter was such an easy baby. Laid-back, happy-go-lucky, flexible… I should have seen the warning signs! By the time she was 22 months, she was refusing – and I mean refusing – to wear jeans. There was no way I was getting those things on her body. And if I did manage to get them on her, swearing and sweating during the entire battle of wills and emotional endurance, she would demonstrate a level of manual dexterity rarely seen in toddlers, expertly unbuttoning, unzipping and removing the pants at mach speed. Eventually, I gave up on the jeans.
Her fashion rules have gotten more and more restrictive as she's gotten older and more articulate, and continue to dictate her wardrobe at age 7, even despite the clothing choices of her fashion-forward friends. Jersey-knit only. No buttons, not even decorative. No long cuffs. No tights. No puffy sleeves. No sewn-on embellishments. No over-sized iron-ons. No empire waist. No strappy tanks. No lace, ribbons or frills. No seams across socks. No dress shoes. No cutesy sayings. No brand names. No leggings. No skirts without built-in shorts. And the list goes on. While she can give a valid (to her) excuse for why she won't wear these things, I challenge you to find four seasons worth of school-appropriate clothing.
I firmly believe in choosing my battles when it comes to parenting, and I learned long ago that the "general appearance battle" is one that I don't pick. Therefore, I am an expert on looking the other way when my kids get dressed. When they come down from their rooms dressed for school, I brace myself. I have learned that I can only make suggestions on what might match. I'm only their mother. I don't actually know what I'm talking about.
My only rule is that they are dressed in a generally seasonally appropriate manner. Or that they accept the consequences of their decisions. I do not force them to wear jackets in the winter, nor do I force them to wear shorts in the summer. After all, it's not my body. As I tell them, I am not at all uncomfortable when they are hot/cold. I advise, but do not dictate. Eventually they learn mommy isn't always so dumb.
As the kids age, the battles over fashion will change. I tend to think that stuff is fleeting and not worth the fight. Clothing, makeup, hair – it is all impermanent. I will offer my opinion and my advice when asked, and I fully expect it to be disregarded.
The permanent stuff like piercings and tattoos, well, that's a whole 'nother ball o' wax. When I went to college and got a 4th earring in my left ear, I remember my mother making me promise that I wouldn't do anything to my face. I thought that was such an odd request. But now I get it. I will make the same rule in my house: nothing on the face.
And while I don't have anything against tattoos (note: I am ink-free, myself), I do think they are something only adults should get. That thing will be on you forever. Even when you're 93. Once my 5-year-old boy asked me to get a spider web tattoo radiating from my elbow, because, you know, it's cool. When I asked him what he would think if Oma, his great grandmother, had one, he thought it would be pretty silly. I told him I would be like Oma one day and still have a spider web on my arm. He decided that maybe I shouldn't get one after all. Point made.
Personal appearance is part of personal expression. Kids will be kids. Fashions will change. I went through my fluorescent phase in the 80s. I had huge hair and claw bangs in junior high and high school. I wore ripped jeans and flannel in the grunge days of the 90s. Last year I got hot pink highlights in my hair. And this fall I wore jeggings.
My mom probably bit her tongue through each and every one of those phases. If she'd said something, I probably would have ignored her. I mean, what does she know anyway? She's just my mom.
Regina Martine
In first grade, my oldest daughter assembled a lovely outfit of stripes, flowers and argyle tights for her school picture sitting. It was perfect. Not because it matched —which it definitely didn't, but because that is exactly how she liked to dress in first grade and I thought her picture should reflect that. Why should I put her in an outfit that she would never choose and would probably hate? She loves her sense of style and is confident enough to wear what she wants and not care what anyone thinks.
I have very few rules about how my kids dress. Their clothes have to be clean, weather appropriate and occasion appropriate, ie no dance costumes to school, etc. But that is about it. Matching is optional. Their "outfits" usually involve a wide variety of colors and occasionally multiple plaids, but it doesn't bother me one bit. I would rather save my fashion interventions for when they want to wear cropped shirts to school or sweatpants that say "juicy" across the butt. Right now, our only clothing battles are about whether a favorite article of clothing is really too small to wear anymore or if they need to wear a jacket outside. I want my kids to have the freedom to express themselves through their own style of dress and wear what they like. There will be bigger battles down the road.
So how much freedom should kids have to alter their appearance? My philosophy is basically "don't do anything you can't undo." I have one triple pierced ear (child of the 80s) and it is no secret that I color my hair, but how much is too much — and at what age should it start? Neither of my girls have pierced ears and although I have told them they can have them pierced, neither of them really seems interested. When I was a kid, I wasn't allowed to pierce my ears until I was sixteen and I couldn't wait to do it. If I told my girls they couldn't do it would they want to? I don't know. Piercing anything other than ears is another matter. A boy in my oldest daughter's class has a pierced lip. In the fourth grade. I have seen middle school aged kids around town with those giant posts that leave dime-sized holes in their ears forever. Yuck. I am pretty sure a kid would need a parent's permission to do that, and I can't see ever allowing my kids to permanently disfigure themselves for the sake of fashion. I really think tattooing and body piercing should wait until kids are over 18. Hopefully by the time my kids are that age, it will have fallen out of fashion.
Peggy Barresi
When I was seven years old I was forced to wear the ugliest pair of shoes in existence at my aunt's wedding. They were pointy-toed, fabric flats the color of dried blood. I took tiny steps inside my floor-length dress all night in order to keep my shoes out of sight. Right then I vowed I would never force my own children to wear anything they despised.
I'm proud to say I've kept that promise. I also expanded it to include anything I despised. Parenthood has its privileges. Don't get me wrong. I'm all for self-expression. If my daughters wanted to wear purple and green socks with red sneakers, they went for it. I did not do much editing, mostly because I knew they would learn on their own. I did, however, teach and guide on what was appropriate. Mismatched clothing was okay. Trashy clothing not so much.
My girls never wore pants with writing across their behinds outside of the house or dance class. They did not show their stomachs unless they were in bathing suits. Dresses were dress length, not shirt length. I allowed high heels and make-up when they became teens. They wear nice clothes to attend the theater or when we go out for a nice dinner. They don't wear flip flops or shorts to church. They've never complained or begged to break the rules. They grew up with a good understanding of what's appropriate for different occasions. They also appreciate my opinion and my youngest, who is 15, will still not buy an outfit if I happen to dislike it, even it I tell her she's the one who's going to wear it, not me.
There is one trend, however, I really wish would go away: Leggings. Yes, they wore them as kids, but they were just little stick girls back then. Now there are curves and booty involved. Leggings are not pants, yet many teens and women think they are. My current rule is "cover the behind." If leggings are involved, then so must be a shirt that is long enough to cover the backside. This is non-negotiable. Otherwise, I pretty much trust them to make the right clothing choices by now.
Leah, who just turned 18 last Saturday, likes to torture me by reminding me that she can now get a tattoo or body piercing without my permission. I respond by telling her that I'm no longer legally required to support her and can kick her out of the house with no DSS consequences. I love the law, mine included.
Laurie Hunt
I am a long way off from tattoos and piercings other than first holes in ears but I have certainly had many battles about clothing with my girls – mainly my just turned 8-year-old.
When both girls were little I never worried much about their fashion sense. I didn't, and still don't, see the harm in a young child going out to do errands come May in their tattered 7-month-old Halloween costume that could use a good washing. I love seeing little boys in Spiderman pj's and little girls with a crazy mixture of stripes, plaids and polka dots. I think it is a healthy form of expression. My grade schooler still puts together some outfits that I don't think match, however, I am not going to fight about what color socks she wears with a certain skirt… I'll guide her but those types of decisions are hers to make.
I am not a fan of the sexed up grade schooler, can't stand seeing tweens who have on a ton of makeup before they are even ready for a bra and I cringe when I see middle schoolers with the word PINK plastered across their backside – basically advertising for Victoria's Secret. I just don't get it.
My youngest came down for school one recent hot day with a pair of shorts and a cami-top with straps no wider than a bra strap… um, I don't think so I told her! That shirt was bought to wear underneath a sweater not as a top! We had quite the disagreement about what was appropriate for school and she had a point – she goes to school in a 100-year-old brick building with no air conditioning and it is HOT in there! She still was not allowed to leave the house with that top on. You see, I am the adult – it is my job to raise her right, not my job to be her BFF. I tell my kids time and time again – I'm evil, get used to it kid… you'll never understand until you are 30 or 40 something and have a daughter of your own but for now you just have to know that in our home there are limits.

The Lakewood community in the heart of Dallas is home to many local eateries and mom-and-pop destinations, but if you're looking to satisfy that old fashioned Italian desire head over to Angelo's. Step into Angelo's homey atmosphere for the aroma of garlic and fresh baking bread wafting through the air causing a flutter in your heart. Angelo's Spaghetti House is named after the owner's father, Angelo Peter Fantinnucci. Dishing up genuine Italian meals inspired by the family's original recipes, they are bringing these meals straight from Papa's table to yours! Take a seat in a comfy booth or a table on the veranda with a view of the community. Taking your seat, you immediately start the night off with warm, buttery, garlic rolls accompanied by the family's famous marinara sauce. Close your eyes and see the rolling hills of Tuscany. All entrees are served with Angelo's Caesar Salad with their signature Caesar dressing, Rome's answer to the boring salad. Servers can assist in choosing a fine wine or describing items on the menu. You will feel transported into a Tuscany vineyard kitchen by the smells of authentic Italian dishes drifting through the air. Angelo's menu is filled with usual Italian staples and some of the family's authentic, homemade, and exquisite dishes. The menu is separated by category into seafood, chicken, and veal specialties. If you aren't an Italian food connoisseur, Angelo's offers a nice sampler platter for those whose taste buds have not been able to make the decision or those who just want to try a little bit of everything. Hand-breaded Chicken Parmesan, cheesy ravioli, and Fettuccine Alfredo are all served together to fulfill all of your heart's desires. The Chicken Parmesan is a savory, hearty dish with a breaded chicken breast, golden pan fried and topped off with shredded, mozzarella cheese. The chicken is served on top a heaping pile of angel hair pasta, smothered by Angelo's own marinara sauce. The Cheese Ravioli is four plump squares stuffed with four different Italian cheeses then baked. The Fettuccine Alfredo is a simple, palate pleasing dish of noodles dressed with a rich, creamy cheese and butter sauce, then a sprinkling of Italian herbs. Angelo's makes their pasta fresh ensuring the ravioli, fettuccine, ziti, and signature spaghetti are perfect al dente made with the same passion Italians have passed down for generations.
In the mood for custom or specialty pizza? Angelo's serves up an amazing pizza pie! Made fresh-to-order, the hand-tossed pizza dough is flipped and spun in Angelo's kitchen before baking creating a crunchy outer crust with an oh-so-soft center. The Spicy Dago Pizza is like an open-faced meatball sub. Starting with the hand-made crust, Angelo smothers the pie with their famous marinara sauce, spices it up with crushed red-pepper, throws in some chopped mushrooms, fresh mozzarella, and layers on juicy MEATS! Angelo's has perfected their expertise over the years giving them the perfect recipes for their famous meatballs and pepperoni. Trust LYD when we say the small pizza is big enough for two and maybe three! Or if a journey to the lighter Italian country side is on the menu, try the Chicken Oglio. A vintage Italian favorite, the Chicken Oglio is an earthy, dainty pasta entree that is served al dente with penne pasta drizzled with Oglio sauce, tossed with capers, pitted black olives, and chunks of feta cheese. Angelo's Oglio sauce is a homemade recipe of the 'real deal' olive oil with thinly sliced garlic sauteed with a dash of finely chopped parsley, a sprig of oregano, ground black pepper, and spritz of salt. It's perfect for a vegetarian or healthy eater.
Do not try to push the dessert menu away this time, just do not even try! The traditional, straight from Grandma's kitchen desserts are the perfect end to a great meal. Ask for two spoons, and dish up bites for your loved one of Angelo's Bread Pudding or Tiramisu. Bread pudding, an old fashioned end to an Italian meal, is made daily. The flavors of vanilla and cinnamon spice are soaked up in every bite of the bread pudding making you feel downright sinful! For all you chocolate and coffee lovers, Tiramisu is the way to go. This lady finger lickin' cake is born and "bread" in Italy. Each lady's finger is drenched in Italian coffee liquor with a sweet, sinful mixture of mascarpone between each layer topped with curls of chocolate. Let that be the aphrodisiac your night needs!
Angelo's is the perfect spot for a quick Italian escape that will have you swooning to the sounds of classic Sinatra. So grab some friends you don't mind cozy-ing up to, or take the brave leap and ask for that first date and Angelo's will do the rest. Ah, l'amore!
Bon appetit, y'all!

Political brinkmanship in Washington has generated disbelief across the nation and throughout the world that the U.S. government could become so dysfunctional. Citizens have drawn parallels to Nero fiddling while Rome burns. China has asked what a de-Americanized world would look like. Instead of leading, House Republicans sing Amazing Grace. Baffled Americans will be forgiven if they wonder whether Robert Redfords new film, All is Lost, an epic story of survival at sea, is a metaphor for our failure of governance.
Republicans have to understand we have lost this battle, GOP Sen. John McCain said of efforts of his colleagues to defund the Affordable Care Act. We would not be able to win because we were demanding something that was not achievable.
Analysis of the partisan politics and self-interested maneuvering that drove the government shutdown and placed the nation on the precipice of default will vary in the months and years ahead. As narratives go, there is merit in the explanation that what began as an effort to strip funding from Obamacare, the presidents signature achievement, had devolved into an effort to deny lawmakers and their staff members subsidies for their health care coverage.
Behind that narrative, of course, lay the great philosophical and, it should be said, historical debate about the role and purposes of government. That debate in the United States is all Broadway, all the time. But the shutdown was about tactics and strategy.
What happens to our political system if and when a governmental shutdown becomes an acceptable tactic? The implications are uncertain, but certainly ponderable, and they are not at all wholesome.
There is, immediately, consideration of whether the emphatic opposition of the tea party members of the GOP to Obamacare and their subsequent success in halting the operations of government will be rewarded or punished.
The early guess is that their constituents, principally those in the safe electoral districts that sent them to Washington, will urge them on, exalting the considerable influence they wielded in the House Republican caucus.
There seems little likelihood they will be punished, since GOP moderates lack a willing leader with the power and backbone to condemn and punish their tactics. Those who might do so would risk retaliation in the form of a primary opponent which, given members penchant for retaining their seats, is incentive to hold their tongues.
If that scenario pans out, then Americans should not expect to find in Congress, anytime soon, a legislature that is little better than dysfunctional.
If the citizenrys needs are not met by Congress, might they be met by the president? Power, it is said, abhors a vacuum. For many years, political scientists have recognized the wisdom of the teaching that presidents, eager to meet the expectations of the public, will aggrandize power for the sake of their own political standing and what they perceive to be the interests and welfare of the nation.
Few presidents will resist the assumption of power necessary to serve their own political and electoral interests, which helps to explain executive usurpation of foreign affairs powers. With an increasingly dysfunctional Congress, and an American public whose needs are unmet, would it be surprising to see greater growth in the executive branch?
The implications of this debt ceiling crisis at home and abroad will be debated, as they should be, by Americans concerned about the capacity of the government to govern. We would do well to remember Theodore Roosevelts sage observation that politics is not a spectators sport.

Tested By Capt. Bob SmithWhile the Canadian summer may be shorter, it still can rival my home temperature and "feels like" sweat inducing feeling I get in Tampa. I still enjoyed going to Doral's Marina and the hospitality and commitment from the Doral staff. They were dedicated to making sure that we found the boats in good shape, clean and ready. They also made sure we enjoyed our visit. They were successful on both counts. Doral boats are coming together very well and rival some of the best I have seen. They are working to deliver a boat that leads its competition in fit and finish.Design and LayoutDoral uses 316 grade stainless steel for longevity and performance in its gunwale molding, cleats and ski tow eyes as well as other marine hardware. Doral uses a cored hull construction technique and integrated fiberglass liner and hand lay-up construction for durability and long life.The integrated swim platform has a nice non-skid surface for safety and a three step stainless telescoping boarding ladder. The aft sunpad has a walkthrough for access to the cockpit. The full aft wrap-around bench seating is plush deluxe upholstery with textured inserts for an elegant feel. You have storage under the benches for small items and life jackets. Wood accents add to the elegance around the cockpit and dash. Adjustable swivel bucket seats give you great view forward and allow you to join in on the conversation when at anchor. A lockable glove box keeps your wallet secure and dry. Courtesy lights light up the floor for safe movement at night. Stainless cup holders keep the beverages close to everyone and the lined ski locker in the floor keeps the toys within easy reach. At the HelmThe helm has a sporty three spoke tilt steering wheel with heavy duty power steering. Deluxe gauges have night lighting for safe view underway at night. A twelve volt receptacle is available for charging cell phones and powering portable equipment. A nice Clarion AM/FM, CD player keeps the tunes going for the entire outing. Up in the forward section, you have a handy cuddy cabin with a large hatch with screen for ventilation. Directional cabin lights help you see at night and the V-berth has storage beneath. Our model had a pump out head for convenience. When you are ready to personalize your model, you can choose from over thirty items.SpecsDoral's 210 Escape for 2005 is offered in four colors; Champagne, Doral Deep Blue, Doral Deep Black and Torch Red. Exterior Canvas colors for 2005 are Champagne, Charcoal and Doral Deep blue. The 210 Escape from Doral measures 21'4" long, 23'10" with the swim platform. She is 8'6" in the beam and carries up to 54 gallons of fuel for a long day on the water.. She weighs in at 3764lbs with a 19 degree deadrise. She needs 19" draft with the outdrive up and 34" with the outdrive down.PerformanceWhen we tested the 210 Escape, we had temperatures in the 70's with about a 10knot wind and 1 foot of chop. Our test model had a 260hp MerCruiser 5.0 MPI gas sterndrive with Alpha One outdrive and Black Max Prop. We tested her with two people on board and ¾ tank of fuel on board. We idled out of the long entrance to the Doral Marina into the open bay. When we tested for hole shot performance we got a 3.9 seconds response. She is pretty fast for her size with a 0-30 performance of 8.3 seconds. She cruises nicely at 3000rpms and 28.2mph. At cruise, she burns 7.3 gallons per hour for a range of 187 miles. She tops out at 5600rpms and 48.7mph and a burn rate of 18.7 gallons per hour. At top speed, she will give you a range of 127 miles on a full tank of fuel.

Tax day is Tuesday, and many people have already filed their tax returns—but what if they need to make a change? Perhaps they missed a chance to increase their refund through additional deductions or credits.
Fortunately, there's still time to file an amended return, according to the Internal Revenue Service.
Amended returns are filed using Form 1040X (Amended U.S. Individual Income Tax Return) to correct previously filed Forms 1040, 1040A or 1040EZ, according to the IRS. Amended returns must be filed via paper forms, and if the changes involve another schedule or form, that schedule or form must be attached to the return.
When filing an amended return, taxpayers should make sure they enter the year of the return being amended at the top of Form 1040X, according to the IRS. Amended returns must be filed within three years of the date the original return was filed or within two years of the date when the tax was paid, whichever is later.
The IRS requires eople who are amending more than one tax return to prepare a 1040X for each return. The returns must be mailed in separate envelopes to the appropriate places. Taxpayers can find the IRS campus addresses in the Form 1040X instructions.
Additionally, taxpayers should wait until they receive their original refund before filing Form 1040X, according to the IRS. They can deposit their original refund while waiting for an additional one.
Taxpayers who are filing an amended return because they owe additional taxes in 2011 should file Form 1040X and pay their taxes before Tuesday so they don't get hit with interest or penalties, according to the IRS. Even if an extension is filed, taxpayers still have to pay their taxes by Tuesday.
Amended returns don't need to be filed to correct math errors, as the IRS will generally correct them automatically, according to the agency. Amended returns don't need to be filed because a taxpayer forgot to attach a W-2, schedule or additional form—the IRS will ask for them.

Make the most of pears when they're in season with this delicious ice cream and soufflé dessert - perfect for Christmas.
500ml/1 pint 1fl oz milk
225g/8oz caster sugar
9 free-range egg yolks
250ml/8½fl oz double cream
150ml/5fl oz pear cider, preferably Cornish
butter, for greasing
6 free-range egg whites
50g/2oz caster sugar
For the pear cider ice cream, heat the milk and 115g/4oz of the sugar in a saucepan until just boiling. Remove the pan from the heat.
Meanwhile, whisk the egg yolks and remaining sugar in a bowl, then slowly whisk in the hot milk mixture until well combined. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over a low heat until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Stir in the double cream and pear cider and set aside to cool completely.
Pour the mixture into a plastic container and freeze for at least four hours, or until the ice cream has frozen. (Stir the mixture with a fork every hour or two to get rid of any lumps of ice.)
Meanwhile for the pear jam, cook the pears and three tablespoons of water in saucepan until the pears have softened. Blend the pears to a purée in a food processor.
Cook the pear purée and sugar in a saucepan until the volume of the mixture has reduced by half, then whisk in the cornflour until smooth.
For the soufflé, preheat the oven to 190C/375F/Gas 5. Grease eight ramekins with butter.
Whisk the egg whites in a bowl until soft peaks form when the whisk is removed, then slowly whisk in the sugar until stiff peaks form.
Stir one-third of the egg white mixture into the jam mixture, then gently fold in the remaining egg whites.
Spoon the soufflé mixture into the ramekins and bake in the oven for 7-8 minutes, or until risen and pale golden-brown.
Serve the soufflés with a scoop of pear cider ice cream.

Sever's Disease
What is it?
- Sever's disease is heel pain in children. This pain is caused by inflammation (redness and swelling) of the heel growth plate. The growth plate is the area where the bone grows. It is located on the lower back part of the heel. In early puberty, bones often grow faster than muscles and tendons. This may cause the muscles and tendons to become very tight.
- Sever's disease is more common in children who do regular sports or exercise that puts pressure on the heels. Activities such as running and jumping can put stress (force or pressure) on the tight muscles and tendons. This may lead to inflammation and heel pain. Sever's disease is most common in girls 8 to 10 years old and boys 10 to 12 years old. Children older than 15 rarely get Sever's disease because their heels have finished growing.
What causes Sever's disease?
- Overuse or exercising too much. Your child's heel pain may be caused by repeated stress on his heels. This type of movement may occur when your child runs and jumps.
- Pressure on the back of the heel from standing too much.
- Wearing poor-fitting shoes. This includes shoes that do not support or provide enough padding for your child's feet.
What are the signs and symptoms of Sever's disease?
Your child may have pain along the edges of one or both heels during exercise. The pain usually goes away when resting, but may be worse in the morning. Your child's heel may also be slightly swollen and warm. The heel pain may be worse when your child stands on tiptoe. It may cause your child to limp when he walks. Your child's heel may hurt if the heel is squeezed on both sides toward the back.
How is Sever's disease diagnosed?
Your child's caregiver will examine your child's feet and heels. The caregivers may take x-rays, which are pictures of the inside of your child's foot. Sever's disease cannot be seen on an x-ray, but caregivers may use the x-ray to see if a broken bone is causing your child's pain. They may also see any damage to the heel growth plate.
What may be done to treat Sever's disease?
Sever's disease will usually heal within two weeks to two months. Following are some ways to help your child at home:
- Help your child to rest his heel. Rest will decrease swelling, and keep the heel pain from getting worse. Your child may need to decrease his regular training or exercise. He may need to completely stop running and other activities that put pressure on the heel. Your child may need to stop these activities until his heel pain is gone. The caregiver may tell your child to do other kinds of exercise until the heel pain goes away. Your child may be able to swim or ride a bicycle while his heel gets better. These are exercises that do not put stress on the heel.
- Put an ice bag on your child's heel and elevate the foot above the heart. Ice causes blood vessels to constrict (get small) which helps decrease inflammation. Put crushed ice in a plastic bag or use a bag of frozen corn or peas. Cover it with a towel. Put this under your child's heel for 15 to 25 minutes, three times a day. Do this for as long as you feel your child needs it. Do not let your child sleep on the ice pack because he can get frostbite. Raise the foot and prop it up so that it is lifted above the level of your child's heart. This will help decrease swelling.
- Give your child medicine for pain. You may give your child ibuprofen (eye-bu-PROH-fen) or acetaminophen (a-seet-a-MIN-oh-fen) for his pain. These may be bought as over-the-counter (OTC) medicine. Read the medicine label or ask your child's caregiver how much medicine you should give your child. Do not give your child aspirin or any medicines with aspirin if he is less than 18 years old. Giving aspirin to your child when he is ill may cause a very serious illness called Reye's syndrome. Read medicine labels to see if your child's medicine has aspirin in it.
- Encourage your child to do stretching and strengthening exercises.
- Caregivers may teach your child exercises to stretch the hamstring and calf muscles and the tendons on the back of the leg. Other exercises will help strengthen the muscles on the front of the lower leg. Your child may be told to stop exercising if he feels any pain. Ask your child's caregiver when it is OK for your child to play sports. Your child should always do stretching exercises before sports activities. Stretching will loosen muscles and help decrease stress on the heel.
- Make sure your child rests between activities. Teach your child to do cool-down and stretching exercises after heavy activities, such as running or soccer. Putting ice on the heel after activities may help keep your child from getting Sever's disease again.
- Caregivers may teach your child exercises to stretch the hamstring and calf muscles and the tendons on the back of the leg. Other exercises will help strengthen the muscles on the front of the lower leg. Your child may be told to stop exercising if he feels any pain. Ask your child's caregiver when it is OK for your child to play sports. Your child should always do stretching exercises before sports activities. Stretching will loosen muscles and help decrease stress on the heel.
- Put shoe inserts inside your child's shoes. Caregivers may give you heel pads or cups for your child's shoes to decrease pressure on the heel bone. You may also be given special shoe inserts with firm arch support and a heel lift. Make sure that your child wears good quality shoes with shock-absorbent (padded) soles. Do not let your child go barefoot.
- Use an elastic wrap or compression stocking. You caregiver may want you to use a special wrap or stocking to help decrease swelling and pain.
- Your child may need to wear a cast. Your child's caregiver may also suggest putting a short-leg walking cast on your child. This may decrease your child's pain, and and help with healing by resting the tendon and bone. Your child may need to wear the cast for two to six weeks.
- If your child can run or do other sports without too much pain, he may do them. After the Sever's disease is healed, your child should be able to go back to his usual activities.
Call your child's caregiver if:
- Your child's pain or swelling increase.
- Your child has new symptoms such as changes in skin color.
- Your child has a fever.
- Your child still has pain, even after finishing his treatment.

A man showing a silver handgun attempted to rob a money transfer store on Cook Avenue in Madison on Thursday, borough police said.
Authorities were looking for the man on Thursday afternoon, Madison Police Chief Darren Dachisen said.
The store, Giro Express, offers check-cashing and money order services.
Madison police and Morris County Sheriff's Office investigators, including the county K-9 unit, were at the scene.
Dachisen said the man—described as Hispanic and wearing a light-colored, possibly corduroy jacket—apparently was spotted at another location nearby, but no robbery attempt was made there.

If you happen to spot what looks like a yoga class taking place in the middle of Marblehead Harbor, you're not seeing things - and no, those aren't state-of-the-art aquatic yoga mats.
They're stand up paddle boards.
SUP East Coast Style owners Leah Beth Goodman and Christos Douroudis began offering open-water pilates and yoga classes earlier this summer and the response from the local community, they said, has been tremendous.
"We are very impressed with our trainers, from their aptitude to their dedication and skills. We were certain when we launched the classes this summer they would be an incredible hit, and we were right," Goodman said, adding, "if this year is any indication of the future, I'd say count on us being here for you for years to come."
Goodman is originally from Marblehead and moved to the west coast, spent time on the island of Kauai, Hawaii; and in Palm Beach, Miami and Key West, Fla. Christos grew up in Salem and has traveled back and forth to Greece and Australia.
Although Goodman admitted that stand up paddle boarding is something that is relatively new to Marblehead, she was quick to point out that it is an established and very popular pastime in countries all over the world.
Her time spent learning from some of the SUP greats, she said, left her with an urge to bring it home and share what she learned with North Shore residents.
"I saw something in their passion and love for stand up paddle boarding," Goodman said. "So much so that I felt absolutely compelled to share it with my hometown and community."
Goodman said she and Douroudis have seen their client list triple in the past year as interest in the sport itself, as well as their on-water pilates and yoga classes, has really taken off.
"Our new location is comfortably located right here on our own private beach near the Marblehead causeway," Goodman said. "This spot is ideal, it has all the space and freedom our clients look for coupled with the type of scenic waterfront beauty that Marblehead is famous for."
Goodman said each on-water fitness class has between 12 and 15 people per instructor and are held at a variety of times.
"Whether you're an early-riser and up at the crack of dawn or don't get home from work until late, we can accommodate you," she said.
It's the combination of exercise and relaxation that you'd only find out on the open water, she said.
"Something about getting your workout on while being out in the open ocean with the sun on your back and the sound of the ocean in your ears really heightens the whole experience," she said.
Sharing Goodman's fondness for stand up paddle board work-outs is Marblehead resident Mandy Caruso.
"It is a workout unlike any other. It works all your core muscles as you both work the muscles and focus them on overall balance. It is a full body assault but in the most beautiful serene center," she said. "Sarah Junk's class is a challenge but amazing, I'm an addict!"
What would Goodman say to someone who has never stepped foot on a stand up paddle board and was nervous about getting started? Don't be.
"What we find is that when they get out there on the beautiful open water and they're in the experienced hands of our trainers, their fears melt away," Goodman said.
Residents interested in making reservations can do so by calling 978-882-2109 or by emailing SUP East Coast Style at firstname.lastname@example.com.

The Grove West was busy last Wednesday, due partly to the grand opening of Pop's Garage, a casual Mexican restaurant that has two other locations, one on the Asbury Park boardwalk and the other in Normandy Beach.
Pop's Garage boasts the same owner as Langosta Lounge, Trinity and the Pope, Dauphin Grille and Labrador Lounge, restaurants I frequent and enjoy.
The Pop's Garage closest to my apartment in Asbury Park is seasonal and open right next store to bustling Langosta Lounge in the summer. It only has room for sit down counters and boardwalk tables. The view is great, but I was excited for the location in Shrewsbury, with extra space for tables inside and some outdoor seating.
Pop's Garage had a soft opening followed by a grand opening on Cinco de Mayo last week with a band playing. I have seen this band before, as they often play at Langosta Lounge on Wednesdays in the summer, with $5 margaritas and fireworks. The music definitely sets the tone for fun.
I went there with my mom and my best friend, and as this location is BYOB, we brought along some Sols, which I felt were appropriate for the holiday. We ordered salsa, guacamole and a basket of tortilla chips to munch while we were browsing the menu. They hit the spot ... the only complaint I have is there weren't more.
My friend ordered the chimichanga, fried and stuffed with chicken, beans, rice, queso and topped with cilantro crème, amazingly fresh pico and guacamole. What I liked about this traditional dish was that it was fried and left crispy, but not too greasy. I ordered Meneco's Mother's Mole, sliced chicken served over ruby rice, sautèed Jersey beans and topped with red mole sauce. It was only the second time I tried mole sauce. It was good but I would have had more if combined with the rice.
My Mom ordered the Arroz Con Pollo, organic roasted cayenne chicken served over ruby rice, summer veggies and verde rojo drizzled with cilantro crème. She also ordered a side of the Cuban grilled Jersey corn (since Jersey corn isn't in season yet, it was Californian corn … guess there's a reason to come back this summer).
In the past, I have had the veggie quesadillas, which were also pretty satisfying. The menus at each location are slightly different, so you have a chance to mix it up if you are ever in any of the locations and are in the mood. The Asbury location, with a liquor license, is more of the "walk off from the beach" type, which can be good for both lunch or dinner after that long day in the sun. The Grove location is also good for a break from a day of shopping.

Can plucky delivery boy Billy ever get secretary Charlene to notice his tap-dancing charms?? Can the stalwart men of Milwaukee survive brainwashing by a musical menace from another world who gives new meaning to "stratospheric" soprano???

It's list-makin' time again, and to keep the annual ritual fun, I propose new ground rules: instead of a superlative-filled blurb, I'll quickly describe a favorite scene from my ten favorite movies of 2007. For more on why I loved each film, just click through to the review.
Honorable mention in this outstanding year go to: Syndromes and a Century, Ratatouille, Eastern Promises, Persepolis, Day Night Day Night, Angel, Atonement, Youth Without Youth, and Yella.
1. There Will Be Blood
In a film packed with great scenes, an early stand-out moment occurs when oilman Daniel Plainview (Daniel Day-Lewis) witnesses Eli Sunday's peculiar brand of faith healing for the first time. In his ramshackle Church of the Third Revelation, self-made preacher Sunday (Paul Dano) tongue-kisses an old woman's geriatric fingers and sweetly casts out the devil before slow-dancing with her to the music of the spheres. Quips Plainview: "Goddamn hell of a show!" Can I get an amen?
2. Secret Sunshine
Another church, another wounded soul. After single mother Shin-ae (Jeon-Do-yeon) suffers unspeakable grief, she finds herself at a revival meeting, wailing in ecstatic pain. The way she loses her newfound faith again is just another of the breathtaking turns in Lee Chang-dong's as-yet unreleased movie that are too good to spoil in a top-ten-list.
3. Once
In the middle of night, between takes at the Dublin studio they rented for the weekend to make their demo tape, the girl (Marketa Irglova) plays one of her songs for the guy (Glen Hansard). She puts her head on his shoulder, and he makes his move: "Come to London with me." Her response separates Once from all the other movies about aspiring artists you've ever seen: "Can I bring my mother?"
4. The Darjeeling Limited
A trademark symmetrical three-shot of the Whitman brothers, from the mirror's point of view: Jack (Jason Schwartzman) on the left, trimming his moustache, Peter (Adrien Brody) on the right, shaving -- and then, just like that, Francis (Owen Wilson) takes off the bandages he wore all movie long to great comic effect. His face is a mess, and his words resonate not just because of Wilson's real-life suicide attempt, but because they provide a healthy rejoinder to anybody who's still accusing Anderson of producing weightless quirk: "I guess I still got some more healing to do."
5. The Host
In a sweet moment of reprieve from a mutant monster's vicious attacks, the survivors of Bong Joon-ho's family of unlikely heroes hides in their riverside food stand... and their adorable abducted daughter (Ko Ah-sung) appears among them to share a cup of ramen.
6. Rescue Dawn
To pass the time in their viet cong prison camp -- and to take their mind of the maggots they're being fed -- Christian Bale, Jeremy Davies, and Steve Zahn play "stack the fridge." It's Zahn's turn. Bottom shelf, raspberry pie, a turkey with breasts the size of Jayne Mansfield's, a six-pack of Budweiser -- but German-born Dieter Dengler (Bale) can't help interrupting him: "I prefer the Bavarian stein, a quarter of a gallon, dark, cool, the foam lapping up and going over the side...." Zahn gets rightfully annoyed: "This is my fridge. The six-pack stays where it is."
7. Dans Paris
While Louis Garrell, channeling the young Jean-Pierre Leaud, is making his way through Paris bedding its beauties, heartbroken brother Romain Duris can barely get out of his own bed. Too depressed to even get dressed, he finds an old single of Kim Wilde's "Cambodia" and hums along to the catchy 80s synth pop -- in his underwear. Does it make him feel any better? We're not sure, but there's some life left in him yet. All together now: "oo-oo-ooh...." The scene's already up on YouTube.
8. The Diving Bell and the Butterfly
Two unsuspecting phone company workers stumble in on Jean-Do Bauby (Mathieu Amalric), the editor paralyzed with "locked-in" syndrome, which allows him to move nothing but his left eye. "What use is a phone if he can't talk?" they want to know. "Maybe he's a heavy breather," one of them cracks, to the consternation of Henriette (Marie-Josee Croze), who promptly throws them out. But in the voice-over only we can hear, Jean-Do is laughing, too: "You have no sense of humor, Henriette."
9. Colma: The Musical
Crash! The Party! It's been a great year for music in the movies, but nothing matched the bubbly charm of suburban teenagers Billy (Jake Moreno) and Rodel (H.P. Mendoza) setting off their car alarm and doing a goofy dance routine on top of their 1992 Honda Civic.
10. I'm Not There
By design, Todd Haynes's Dylan biopic aims to be more than the sum of its parts, and naming a favorite scene is almost as difficult as picking a favorite Dylan album. Still, the moments that stuck with me most were the breakup of Heath Ledger and Charlotte Gainsbourg, set to the withering anger and sadness of "Idiot Wind:" "Blowing every time you move your teeth / You're an idiot, babe / It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe."

Don't blame her product, blame the people who fail to read the directions and use her product properly.
That's the upshot of a statement issued Thursday by Leslie Gudel, inventor and owner of the Nap Nanny. The device is a contoured baby-holding device designed to make infants more comfortable and more able to sleep.
It has now been linked to five deaths and the Consumer Product Safety Commission has issued a stop-selling order against the company.
Gudel, the local mom and Comcast sports reporter who invented the device issued a statement on the company's website saying that she has been working closely with CPSC and this stop-selling order caught her by surprise. In the statement, which can be found in full on the nap nanny website, Gudel says the problem is with consumers who don't read the instructions which are clearly marked on the baby recliner. The device is supposed to be placed on a hard floor only and not supposed to be put in a crib. According to the directions and warning on the Nap Nanny the baby must be clicked into the harness.
In her company statement Gudel responds to the government order:
Today the CPSC filed an administrative complaint against our company seeking legal authority to stop the sale of all Nap Nanny recliners on the theory that the Nap Nanny is a hazardous product. We do not believe the complaint has merit and stand behind the safety of our product when used as instructed.
The CPSC's complaint notes that five infants have died "while using" the Nap Nanny. The loss of an infant is an unthinkable tragedy, and I am truly heartbroken for the families who have lost a child. But the fact that infants have died "while using" the Nap Nanny improperly, such as when used in a crib where the child could suffocate on a crib bumper or a blanket, does not mean our product caused the child's death or is hazardous.
We at Nap Nanny went to great lengths to make the safest product possible. Nap Nanny has helped thousands of babies and their tired parents the last four years. No infant using the Nap Nanny properly has ever suffered an injury requiring medical attention. The Nap Nanny was designed and constructed for use only on the floor with the harness secured.
Nap nanny has reportedly been forced to shut down operations and lay off 13 people as a result of the order.

Rather than re-entering the political arena to make a stand, former California gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman has focused her energy on education, starting with a $2.5 million donation to the Summit schools, according to the San Jose Mercury News.
The former eBay CEO, who may be tapped as the new Hewlett-Packard CEO, announced the donation at Summit's Rainier and Tahoma charter high schools in San Jose to an assembly of several hundred Summit students.
She also committed to contributing an additional $2.5 million in matching funds if Silicon Valley colleagues accept her challenge to similarly donate their own money.
"By investing in model educational organizations, we're making a down-payment on California's future prosperity," Meg Whitman wrote on her Facebook page. "One great student at a time."
There are also two Summit schools in Redwood City: Summit Prep and Everest High School. Summit aims to establish 10 more high schools by 2021 in San Mateo and Santa Clara counties, with specific cities to been determined.
in Redwood City since its inception, with the acclaimed documentary "Waiting for Superman" following one student's success through the high school.
Education researchers and experts have championed the charter schools, which have consistently received high test scores, and numerous academic achievements. This year, Newsweek ranked it one of the in the nation. In another Newsweek ranking, Summit Prep was ranked the 132nd best school in America, the top 1 percent of schools.
Students are enrolled through a lottery system, and the schools have helped land students all at similar points of success.
The Summit schools can boast statistics such as 100 percent of their students are eligible to apply to college, in contrast to 25 percent of California students.
Executive Director Todd Dickson highlighted the small maximum class size of 25 as crucial to really getting to know the students.
"We're teaching them how to be teachers to each other, rather than just letting them copy each other's homework," said teacher Brian Johnson.
"Simply, we design a school that sets teachers up for success," said Summit's Executive Director Todd Dickson. "The result is that we get unbelievable teachers."

For Immediate Release
September Crash Report Card
The City of Springfield Public Works Department has released the September 2012 Crash Report Card for crashes taking place Jan. 1 – Sept. 30. There have been 17 fatality crashes (killing 20 people) this year, compared to six fatality crashes in the same time period in 2011. The number of total crashes has decreased by three percent and the number of injury crashes decreased six percent respectively compared to the same period last year.
December Safety Message
No snow may have fallen in Springfield yet, but Springfield Public Works staff are already preparing for the task of plowing area roadways. Major roadways such as arterial and collector streets have priority and will be cleared and maintained as shown in the Springfield snow route map at http://maps.springfieldmo.gov/publicviewer/, (select Snow Routes under Public Safety in the Table of Contents.)
Even with Public Works' plowing crews working around the clock, not all streets can be cleared. During normal snow and ice occurrences, Public Works does not clear local residential streets.
Citizens can do their part, however, in helping Public Works service the City's infrastructure in an efficient way.
Here are some tips:
During Snow Plowing:
- If at all possible park all vehicles on private property, at least 10 feet away from the road's edge.
- Avoid driving altogether if roadways are icy or have not been cleared. Try to minimize the number of trips you make and it would be a good idea to consider carpooling or riding the bus.
- As a motorist or pedestrian, give vehicles with snowplows lots of space. If they can proceed at a steady speed, the roads are cleared faster and safer.
- When clearing your driveway, pile the snow on the "downstream" traffic side of your driveway so that plows wont shove the snow right back into your drive. Again, please offer approaching street maintenance personal the courtesy and step back a few feet.
- Be advised that passing snow removal vehicles outside of a cleared travel lane or within 100 feet of an intersection is illegal; see City Ordinances Section 106-200.
- Fill up on windshield washer fluid to help keep your windshield clean, as streets are likely to be treated with salt or calcium chloride.
- When clearing your driveway of snow please be neighborly and also clear the sidewalk of snow, which is encouraged by City Ordinances.
Public Works' Traffic Engineering staff also offers the following winter weather driving tips:
During Signal outages:
- Treat signalized intersections with a power outage as you would an All-Way-Stop.
- Slow down and prepare to stop when approaching ALL intersections, but especiallywhen police officers are directing traffic or when Public Works and City Utilities repair crews and vehicles are in or near the roadway.
Vehicle control during Snow and Ice Events:
- Winterize your vehicle by checking antifreeze and tire pressure. It is a good idea to carry a windshield de-ice (some washer fluid includes de-icer). Clear vehicle windows of snow and ice and allow the vehicle to warm up and allow for a clear view before moving the vehicle.
- If you live in a hilly area or have a steep driveway, park your vehicle on level ground. Vehicles can slide after being parked on an incline. Possibly carry some sand for traction with you for use when needed to improve traction.
- On wet and icy surfaces, use vehicle controls as smoothly as possible. Do not over use the brake, gas or steering wheel and do not use them abruptly. Maintain a greater distance than normal to other vehicles.
- Always slow down well in advance when approaching a stop sign or signal-controlledintersection. Even with a green traffic signal, be prepared to stop.
- Be extremely careful when crossing over bridges and storm water culverts as moisture freezes quicker on these structures.
- When making a turn, wait for your car to straighten out and regain stability before accelerating.
- If you encounter a car crash with emergency responders at work, slow down and pay attention to the roadway as many crashes occur when motorists take their eyes off of the road to look at the crash.
For more information, contact Mandy Buettgen at (417) 864-1980.

I read in the page web of PSUV (Party Socialist Together of Venezuela), the slogan: "200 years, the people in movement." After this heading of it paginates it, I read the I articulate of Antonia Muñoz: 'To Consolidate the Socialism Bolivarian.' I think that with that slogan and the article, I go back two hundred years in the time.
The beginning of the I articulate she refers to a sentence of Argimiro Gabaldon, Commanding Carache: "The road is hard, very hard. but it is the road." She says that they believe in this sentence, and that it is an invitation to the perseverance, to the patience and the ideological permanent work through the word and of the action. She also says that saving the distances that certainly the road is hard, but that with Hugo Chavez like leader, many and many are willing to traffic and to consolidate the path of independence, freedom and justice that they left forever open.
She speaks that this road began him to traffic Hugo Chavez and the military ones that with him, peaking our Liberator's flag Simon Bolivar. And that it was starting from March 26, 1994, when it began to travel the country; since wise that had fastened in the fertile heart of the Venezuelan town, it began to capture apostles that helped him to take the Good one New that was not other but the resuscitation of the bolivarianismo.
If these sentences were not discouraged, she adds: "Some they have left, many have arrived, but we all have the view put in the 2030, Bicentennial of the Liberator's death, as year to reach the goal. That is to say like lose the opposition, to the Venezuelans waits them a very black panorama. until the one 2030."
But that that more I am surprised it of this whole wordiness, they are the following paragraphs: "For the attainment of the objective, the unit in the ideological thing is necessary. Objective unit that is achieved with the study, the debate and the respect. The debate of ideas is indispensable to achieve the unit between those and the revolutionaries; and the unit is necessary to achieve the objective of consolidating the Socialism Bolivariano. The debate like a quotidian methodology involves the critic with basics and the sincere self-criticism, that which assures the direction rectification when it is necessary. In this same order of ideas, we dare to say that all and we all are necessary and we can be useful in the attainment of the objectives, for that reason the necessity of the inclusion, the recognition and the respect."
That they say it to Capriles and their team: I respect 0, it debates 0, and a long etc.
Henrique Capriles Radonski, born in Caracas, July 11 of 1972. Political and Venezuelan lawyer, governor of the State Miranda for the period 2008 - 2012. It was the last and younger vice-president of the extinct Congress of the Republic and chairman of the Camera of Deputies among the years 1999 and 2000. This politician has a project where he has inclusion all the Venezuelans, without meanness, calmly and serenity.

MIKE KILEN The Des Moines Register
The Clinton Herald
---- — WASHINGTON — Michael Zahs is 66 and lives in rural Washington County, down a dirt road, in a big farmhouse filled with artifacts. He has a long, 40-year-old gray beard and often tells people he was born 100 years too late.
The retired history teacher is enamored with the past, so in 1981 he was delighted to find a stack of old motion picture films among a local estate's treasures.
For more than 30 years, Zahs kept them in his farm shed. He knew the cellulose nitrate-based films were precious. Some dated back to before the turn of the last century.
He even had the American Film Institute make copies of a few of the films back in the 1980s. He would show them during a bus tour of Iowa history that he still leads every year.
No one else seemed too interested. Until now.
The films took on a new life after an Iowa arts organization learned of them and enlisted film experts to confirm the reels include the earliest films ever made, dating back to 1895.
"The specialists are gobsmacked and excited almost beyond belief what the collection is revealing," said Christopher Rossi, director of Humanities Iowa, which recently secured a $51,000 grant to preserve the films.
Zahs, a 6-foot-3-inch man who wears Wrangler jeans and flannel shirts, is now telling the films' story to a wider audience of people, including a documentary film crew that was visiting his farmhouse.
The films came from the basement of the old home of Frank and Indiana Brinton, traveling entertainers from Washington, Iowa. Zahs enlisted his students in Washington to clear off the coal dust and rat droppings, and incorporated the films into his lessons. "Together," Zahs told the children, "we are going to see things that haven't been seen for 100 years."

It's been open since the early 1980s, but there's nothing dated about Chengdu 46. The gourmet Chinese restaurant has managed to keep a steady crowd of happy customers for the past 30 years thanks to two things: its romantic ambiance, and crack team of native Sichuan chefs. Families and dinner dates alike gather beneath red paper lanterns to savory crispy peking duck and empress chicken by the flickering candlelight. One chef specialty known as Spicy South Sea Pearls consists of whole sea scallops that have been fried, sautéed, and arranged to resemble a more grown-up version of a candy necklace. All food can be prepared for dine-in or takeout, and parties of four or more can reserve a private room and dine from a multicourse banquet menu.
• For $25, you get a hibachi combo dinner with chicken and steak or chicken and shrimp for two (up to $25.50 each; up to a $51 value). • For $14, you get a hibachi lunch entree for two (up to $14.50 each; up to a $29 value).

Comedy fans can attend a show at the recently renovated venue after choosing from as many as three available nightly performances. Comic Brian McFadden sprains funny bones with goofy standup that landed him spots on the Late Show, Late Late Show, and then in detention for habitual tardiness. Bonnie McFarlane delights audiences with controversial quips about such comic standards as parenthood, pregnancy, and The Epic of Gilgamesh, and Rob Cantrell struts onstage with the confidence earned from appearances on Last Comic Standing and Comedy Central. While sipping a choice of cocktails, wine, or beer from a full menu, duos and quartets enjoy up-close views of comedians' goofy poses from the intimate, 100-seat venue.
Oriental Cafe's chefs toss flavors from all over Asia into pans to produce Chinese-style stir-fries and Japanese tempura-fried eats wrapped in rice and seaweed. They decorate bowls of edamame with careful portions of salt to awaken sleeping appetites for hearty sushi rolls bursting with tuna, salmon, eel, and yellowtail or platefuls of sweet-and-savory tangerine beef. Diners nestle up to intimate hardwood tabletops as the wait staff bustles back and forth from the sushi bar, bathed in the warm light reflecting off the pale-pink walls.

Wichita Police say a drug deal gone wrong led to murder earlier this week.
Wednesday night, a man who had been shot drove himself to the QuikTrip station at 13th and Oliver. He flagged down an off-duty officer for help.
He was rushed to an area hospital and died a few hours later. He has since been identified as 42-year-old Shawn Rhone.
Police tracked the shooting location to the 1700 block of Northeast Parkway.
According to police, Rhone was in possession of marijuana and got a phone call from several suspects asking to do a drug deal. When Rhone arrived on Northeast Parkway, two suspects got out of their car and tried to rob him.
