Tuesday Dinner: Blackhawks Hope To Serve Roast Duck
Oct 25th
One of the curiosities of last season was the holy-crap performance of aging veteran Teemu Selanne. Despite having four decades in his rear view mirror, he notched 31 goals and a whopping 80 points in 73 regular-season games, adding a goal-per-game performance in the playoffs. Selanne and 4 other Ducks players were all north of 65 points on the 2010-11 season, and Selanne plus the other 4 will all be in the lineup tonight at the United Center: forwards Corey Perry, Ryan Getzlaf, and Bobby Ryan, and defenseman Lubomir Visnovsky.
But I'm sure Anaheim Head Coach Randy Carlyle is hoping his offensive stars will start to shine soon, as the Ducks are near the bottom of the barrel in scoring, just barely nudging past 2 goals per game on average. Those five players account for fully two-thirds of the Ducks total offense to date. Pay close attention to those players, you shut down the Ducks offense — almost.
Boxing Returns Tuesday: Bad Bounces Beat Blackhawks
Oct 23rd
On Saturday evening, Jeff was having his weekly psychotic episode. These almost always include (but are not limited to) alcohol, friends, and the Michigan State Spartans football game. This one was particularly bad, as the Spartans went down 14 – 0 in the first 7 minutes of the game, rallied to a 31 – 14 lead — which they then blew in the fourth quarter, only to win against #6 Wisconsin on the already-legendary Hail Mary pass with no time left on the clock.
I've spoken to the doctors, and Jeff may be well enough to take visitors as early as tomorrow afternoon. But in the mean time, your fix of "Boxing" will be delayed until after the Ducks game on Tuesday.
I know, you're disappointed, for the second time. As the Blackhawks were not able to pull together the same fate as MSU: they also came from behind, they also blew a late-game lead, but lost 5 – 4 in a shootout to Colorado. This defeat was much the same as Thursday's victory, but the bounces went against the Blackhawks this time.
Potential: Blackhawks Finish Home-And-Home With Avalanche
Oct 22nd
The Blackhawks' season looked, at the outset, to be fraught with peril: shaky backup goaltending, injuries to key forwards, defensive pairing mix-and-match, questions about conditioning, and the ever-present ticking time bomb that exists in the form of newly-acquired winger Daniel Carcillo. The first six games of the season find the Blackhawks with a 4-1-1 record, and showing the potential for another Stanley Cup run. Thursday's game was a good example of that potential.
Watching the Blackhawks take on the Avalanche it was apparent that these were two closely-matched teams: young and fast, with quick and dangerous snipers up front and scary-good goaltending on the back end. Thursday's game saw lots of end-to-end action, goaltenders peppered with shots — and standing on their heads to keep their teams in it, and a lot of quick transitions at the blue line.
Tonight, we are going to see that same Avalanche team again; and again, the Blackhawks are going to have to play the same fast, disciplined game to get past them.
Dogs In The Desert… For Now: Blackhawks Visit Coyotes
Oct 18th
As the Winnipeg Jets celebrate their reincarnation north of the border, the team that represents the ashes of the old incarnation of that squad still sits, parched, in the dusty climes of Phoenix, awaiting whatever fate Fuhrer Bettman decides they should have. Stuck in the mobius loop of lousy-team-low-revenue-no-buyers-can't-attract-good-players-so-lousy-team, Bettman faces mountains of humiliation should the team be forced to move from a location he personally hand-picked for NHL expansion. So, he isn't approving any deals that involve moving the team to places where snowmobiles are used as transportation for part of the year.
The proud, arrogant little bastard should be beaten to death at center ice before puck drop at the All-Star Game. Fans of hockey all over the world would pay $5000 a ticket to watch that.
But I digress…
Emery in Net, Ladd and Byfuglien Return as Blackhawks host Jets
Oct 13th
When the backup goaltender debate was raging, the issue I raised (that everyone, and I mean *everyone* called me nuts for raising) was the prospect of injuries. What do you do if one of our top-two goaltenders gets hurt?
While it's not looking like Corey Crawford isn't healthy enough to go and more simply getting a night off, Ray Emery will start in net for the Blackhawks after battling the flu much of this week.

Characterized by soft, feathery leaves that grow up to three feet high, dill is an aromatic herb with a slight licorice taste.
Season: Year-round.
How to Choose Dill
Choose sprigs that are bright in color (no browning or discoloration) and have a fresh fragrance. Use fresh dill whenever possible. Dried dill, while universally available, has minimal flavor. -
How to Store Dill
Wrap the herb in a slightly damp paper towel and store it inside a sealed plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; the delicate fronds wilt quickly after being picked.
How to Prepare Dill
Just before using, wash the dill and blot it dry with a paper towel. The herb loses its flavor when heated, so either add it at the very end of cooking or use it as a garnish. -
How to Use Dill
Dill is classically paired with fish and potatoes, used in dips, and added to pickling brines for cucumbers.

Jordan Son of Mars Low "Cement Grey" – Arriving at Retailers
August 7th, 2013 by Brendan Dunne | 2 comments
Could this "Cement Grey" colorway on the Jordan Son of Mars Low possibly be a prelude to an Air Jordan retro colorway that we've not yet caught wind of for 2013? We'd be surprised if a pair so soon eluded us, so we're pretty comofortable saying that's not the case. Instead the shoes decide to pick and choose shoes and hues from the legacy lineup, making the mash up of a model that much more diverse in its inspiration. Watch for this Jordan Son of Mars Low to release at stores like Nohble this weekend and make sure you check out the rest of the photos

Pawn shop # 4. I had not been in this one for at least 6 months. <!--graemlin::eek:--> I went in and seen many bait cast reels in the display case. A check of the rod rack .. WOW.. a NICE Abu-Garcia 5500 C3 reel, mounted on a 7 ft. FALCON Grass Rod. The price marked was $89.95. <!--graemlin::rolleyes:--> But one guide had the ceramic ring broken out of it. I took it to the register and ask if they would discount this rod and reel combo some due to the bad guide. I looked at the reels in the display case, mostly Abu-Garcia, but priced WAY TOO HIGH. The floor manager told me then that he would take $60.00 even [inc sales tax] for the Falcon rod and reel. I was happy to pay him in cash even. I was very happy as I walked out the Door. It will take me maybe 45 seconds to replace the damaged guide. <!--graemlin::D-->The last Pawn shop I went into, had maybe 35 rod and reel combos laying against one wall. I looked them all over. Mostly Spinning and Spincast stuff. One little pole with a dark green reel caught my eye. Could it be? <!--graemlin::eek:--> Yes it was, <!--graemlin::D--> <!--graemlin::D--> ANOTHER SHIMANO CURADO 200. In nice shape for a used reel. The Price tag was marked $29.95 <!--graemlin::)--> <!--graemlin::)--> I took it to the counter and they looked it over. They rolled back the price on it some, and including sales tax, I paid exactly $30.00 for the combo. <!--graemlin::D--> I will have plenty of reels now to check and clean/lube, but the quailty items one can find in a Pawn shop [and the pricing] can be truly AMAZING. <!--graemlin:;)-->

The Sweet Peach Diner in Belmont is owner Ellen Carter's valentine to her home state of North Carolina.
The room has a beach kitchen feel, borrowed from childhood days spent on the Carolina coastline. From the L-shaped front dining area to the cozy back room, the walls are sky blue with white wainscoting and paintings of boats, buoys, and dunes.
"It's Southern and it reminds me of home but I didn't want to take away from the fact that we're in Massachusetts," says Carter, 27, a Wilmington, N.C., native who moved to the Bay State about three years ago.
The menu still has a strong Southern accent. Most dishes are pulled from her mother's and grandmother's cooking. Full story for BostonGlobe.com subscribers.

Ranked among the top gynecology programs by U.S. News & World Report
Published: Feb. 19, 2009
Updated: Sept. 9, 2011
The Duke Center for Endometriosis Diagnosis & Treatment offers unique, expert care to diagnose and treat endometriosis.
Endometriosis is a condition where endometrial tissue, normally found in the uterus' lining and shed during a menstrual period, is found elsewhere in the body.
Endometriosis lesions can be found anywhere in the pelvic cavity -- on or in the ovaries, the fallopian tubes, and on the pelvic sidewall. Other common sites include the uterosacral ligaments, the cul-de-sac behind the uterus, and in the recto-vaginal septum.
In addition, these lesions can be found in other places within the pelvis including on the bladder, large or small bowel, and appendix.
The main manifestations of endometriosis are pelvic pain, adhesions, and infertility. Endometriosis is found in 15-80 percent of women with chronic pelvic pain, and in 21-65 percent of women investigated for infertility.
Read more about endometriosis and infertility
The most common symptom of endometriosis is pelvic pain. For many women, the pain of endometriosis is so severe and debilitating that it impacts their lives in significant ways. For other women, the pain of endometriosis is somewhat more mild.
The pain often occurs with the menstrual period, but a woman with endometriosis may also experience pain at other times in her cycle, such as with intercourse and bowel movements.
Other symptoms of endometriosis include diarrhea, constipation, abdominal bloating, irregular bleeding, and fatigue.
Endometriosis can also cause scar tissue and adhesions to develop that can distort a woman's internal anatomy. In advanced stages, this can be severe, and internal organs such as the uterus, ovaries, and bowel may be stuck together.
There is no easy test to diagnose endometriosis. In one study, the average time from the onset of symptoms to the surgical diagnosis of endometriosis was 12 years. The best way to definitively diagnose endometriosis is to perform laparoscopic ("keyhole") surgery and to take a biopsy of the tissue.
Surgery is an expensive, invasive procedure. Further, if the surgeon is not a specialist or experienced in recognizing endometriosis, he or she may not accurately diagnose whether endometriosis is present or not. It has been recommended that, when possible, "see and treat" laparoscopy is performed so that endometriosis is both diagnosed and treated during the same surgery.
Other tests the gynecologist may perform include ultrasounds, MRI scans, and gynecological examinations. While none of these tests can definitively rule out the presence of endometriosis, they can indicate whether the disease is present.
At Duke, treatment for endometriosis includes pain medications, hormonal suppression, or surgery.
Pain medications and hormonal suppression treat the symptoms of endometriosis. An example of hormonal suppression is when a doctor prescribes a combination of birth control pills that create a sort of "chemical pregnancy," or, alternately, when he or she prescribes gonadotropin agonists or antagonists that create a "chemical menopause." These medications are used to suppress the endometriosis, which can alleviate symptoms, but they do not treat infertility.
Surgery is the only treatment that removes the disease and restores normal anatomy, which is potentially curative for women who suffer from endometriosis.
The goal of surgical excision is to completely cut out all visible endometriotic implants. Excision can be performed using any number of modalities including monopolar scissors, bipolar electrosurgery, and the carbon dioxide (CO2) laser.
The surgeon will select the modality that gives the greatest confidence in removing all the endometriotic implants wherever they are found -- even over vital organs including the bladder, parts of the bowel, and the ureters.
The aim of ablation is to destroy the endometriotic implants by burning or coagulating them.
There has only ever been one well-designed trial that examined whether excision was superior to ablation for the treatment of endometriosis. Published in the journal Fertility and Sterility in December 2010, the authors of this study concluded that they were "unable to demonstrate a significant difference in pain reduction between ablation and excisional treatments".
Although excision is not proven to be superior to ablation, excision of areas thought to have endometriosis has a number of potential advantages -- the lesion is excised down to normal tissue ensuring its complete removal, less charred areas which can lead to adhesions are produced, and the specimen removed is sent to pathology for a definitive diagnosis. This allows us to be absolutely certain that what we saw at the time of surgery really was endometriosis.
"Definitive therapy" for endometriosis is considered to be removal of the uterus (so that the woman no longer has the pain associated with her periods) and removal of both ovaries (to remove the hormonal stimulation of endometriosis). However, removing the uterus and ovaries does not eliminate the disease itself.
Some have proposed that complete excision of endometriosis itself be considered a form of definitive therapy since the goal is to remove all areas of endometriosis.
Pain is a very complex phenomenon that involves the perception of a noxious stimulus -- in this case, endometriosis. This pain stimulus can arise within tissues or organs surrounding the endometriosis lesion, as well as from the lesion itself.
For example, the pelvic floor muscles can go into spasm because the endometriosis is causing you to hurt. Other organs may cause pain that mimics or resembles the pain of endometriosis making the diagnosis of the true source of pain often challenging.
At the Duke Center for Endometriosis Diagnosis and Treatment, our doctors believe in a team approach to treatment for these patients. This may involve the care of a variety of health care providers, including your surgeon, physical therapists, and pain management specialists.
A minimally invasive approach to these operations itself (such as laparoscopy) has been shown to reduce your chances of adhesions. In addition to good surgical technique that minimizes blood loss and charring, our surgeons frequently utilize fluids or barriers that may help to reduce the chances of the development or recurrence of adhesions.

Noted by The Washington Post for "his technique meticulous, his musicianship powerful and his inclinations poetic," Dr. Jones was the recipient of the Yamaha prize at the Frinna Awerbuch International Piano Competition, took first place in the Baltimore Music Club Competition, and was a finalist at the American Pianists Association Beethoven Fellowship Competition.
He earned a bachelor's degree from California State University, Northridge, and he received master's and doctoral degrees in piano performance from the Peabody Conservatory of Music, where he held assistantships in theory and accompanying.
Following Dr. Jones' performance, Dick Goodwin's Dixieland Band will perform. Dr. Goodwin is a composer and Distinguished Professor Emeritus at the University of South Carolina and was a recipient of USC's prestigious Educational Foundation Award. He was the 2001 Elizabeth O'Neill Verner Individual Artist winner (the highest honor awarded in the arts by the State of South Carolina), and he has received a number of writer awards from the American Society of Composers and Publishers.
Dr. Goodwin is a jazz artist who leads the Dick Goodwin Quintet, the Dick Goodwin Big Band, and the Dick Goodwin Dixieland Band. A composer/arranger/performer/studio producer, he has toured numerous times to Latin America and Germany. He and others in the band have performed with such entertainers as Natalie Cole, Bob Hope, Johnny Mathis, Henry Mancini, the Temptations, and Gregory Hines. Dr. Goodwin earned his doctoral degree in composition at the University of Texas. He taught composition and theory at the University of Texas for more than 10 years, and then in 1973, moved to USC where he conducted the orchestra and served as head of the theory-composition area.
On the following Tuesday, Jan. 23, the United States Army Jazz Band, a core group of the Signal Corps Band, will feature Swing music at a free concert at 7 p.m. in the Maxwell Theatre. The band is comprised of approximately 40 musicians from across the U.S., Puerto Rico, and the Philippines and performs a wide variety of jazz classics to the more contemporary sounds of today.

I was very satisfied with my stay here. The pool was a bit small but other than that I was very happy with the experience.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"fine for overnight stay"
Parking was free. Internet worked fine. Bed was very comfortable. Room was very quiet. check in quick and efficient. Decorating could definitely use a facelift . Breakfast was not appealing - everything looked old and stale. This was a fine place for just an inexpensive overnight stay.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Easy access to major roads;easy access to dining"
My wife and I really enjoy staying in room 202. We've stayed there twice now for family gatherings. Quiet, clean, comfortable and well supplied (microwave, fridge, ironing board) with items long-distance travelers can use.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Need to try harder"
Front desk staff was not very pleasant. Typical greeting was "yeah". Could tell room is not deep cleaned. Dust under/around a lot of items, old socks under bed, etc.. Mini fridge needs a lot of cleaning around door seals, some blackish green stuff growing there. For the rate I paid it was a get what you pay for deal. Pool is very small but kept up ok.

"Very Comfortable stay at Quality Inn O'Fallon, IL."
It was very easy to find our hotel, parking was very convenient. Parking lot was well lit. We were greeted time we entered the lobby. The receptionist was friendly and attentive. After check-in she gave us directions to our room and asked if we needed anything else. Our room was very comfortable and secure. Everything seemed very clean and well laid […] out.

"Not as convenient as I thought."
The biggest complaint that I have was the carpeting was black and did not show the dirt that blackened my white socks.

"First stay in area"
I travel a lot for business but have a limited budget. Obviously any hotel is not as comfortable as home. A hotels purpose is to give you a place to stay so their goal is to make is as comfortable as possible. My goal is to minimize cost while staying in a decent facility; clean, safe, and comfortable.

The room was rather small but okay for the price.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great place to stay, St. Louis is too expensive."
Very comfortable. Very convenient. Nice Place. Good price! You MUST eat at Schiappa's, the restaurant in front of the hotel! The food was great and the service there was tops!!!Genuine Expedia guest review
Very quiet. Clean. Only complaint was bathroom was very small.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Disappointing Location"
When I signed up for this hotel, it was supposed to be 11 miles from Busch Stadium. The room was very small, particularly the bathroom. It was clean enough but there wasn't an iron in the room like it was supposed to have. The desk clerk was helpful but she had double duty doing hotel laundry. The lady who worked in the breakfast area (which was very […] tiny) chattered all about her personal life. We were tired & just wanted to eat some breakfast. We will not stay here again.

"Met the criteria I was searching for."
I had very specific needs for this stay. We had to be close to a family event and we were traveling with someone that had a disability and required the use of a hot tub, and I wanted an indoor pool. The inn met those needs. The staff was personable; the breakfast was better than expected. The bathroom was really small but had good strong bar for assisting […] the handicapped to get over the bathtub side. The beds took up most of the available space and the vanity/sink was outside the bathroom. I would not have been happy staying here for a length of time, but for a short stay it was good. Shopping and restaurants were handy. Price reasonable. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Very good one night stay"
Two of my family members and I needed a place to stay while my mom was having surgery. We did not want to spend a ton of money on a place that we only needed for a night. We also did not want to stay in a dump. This place was very comfortable and well worth the money! The place seemed very clean and the staff was more than nice. Breakfast was basic […] but we did not need a five star restaurant. I would definitely recommend if you need a place to crash for a short stay and don't want to downgrade your expectations at the same time. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Nice hotel"
We need one night stay in St Louis during our cross-country trip to California. We originally booked Super 8 near St Louis. However, upon check-in, they only had smoking room left. We had to cancel it. Surprisingly, most hotels were sold out because of a Baptist convention and the Cardinals game. After visiting the Gateway Arch museum in the evening, […] this was the closest hotel we can find. Although we had to drive about 20min east, we found it worth the driving. The room is very clean. Bed very comfortable. Bathroom looks like just remodeled. Much better than the Super 8 we looked earlier. Breakfast is a surprise with lots of variety including bacon, sausages, biscuit and waffle. We also took advantage of the laundry room at the end of the hall. Very convenient to the freeway but not noisy at all. Definitely will stay again! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Clean, comfortable hotel with free breakfast."
Nice hotel, very clean rooms with comfortable beds. Breakfast was basic but kept fresh and full during the full breakfast time frame. Friendly service with a fair price.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
The hotel was clean and well maintained. Staff were all friendly and helpful. Breakfast wasn't anything special, but it was ok. Good location - 15 minutes from St. Louis. All-in-all it was a good value for the price. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"The hotel was a pleasant surprise."
The check in staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean and modern. Very comfortable. The complimentary breakfast however, took one look and headed elsewhere for food.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
The pool was green the entire stay. That did make me happy.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Everything was really good the only problem was the breakfast ends at 9 a.m. which is rather early and it wasn't very good! Everything else was great!!!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
nice location, close to everything, comfortable rooms and beds......would be nice if breakfast hours were longer on weekends.....9am is early for travelers who have a busy schedule.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"very nice"
Good and clean... super nice..Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Better than expected"
In town for 1-night only, I am familiar with the area but needed a place I could comfortably sleep, get ready for a funeral, and feel safe parking my rental car upon arrival in the middle of the night. The front desk staff were always super-nice, quick to answer questions, and just really accomodating. My room was on the first floor, a King, with a […] micro & fridge in the room. I really liked the room layout - it was quite spacious even with the TV stand/dresser/Micro-fridge stand and an extra chair for sitting. The sink and vanity were outside the bathroom, but the vanity had ample space for spreading out and appeared to be updated within the last few years. The bathroom was pretty small, but what do you need more than a toilet and bathtub? Everything was quite clean. I did not partake of the berakfast so am unable to comment on that. I will note that I returned to the room at 2:30 in the morning and felt very safe in the well-lit parking lot. I slept in until 8:30am and heard NOTHING from the hallways - I must've been that tired, or the housekeeping staff were that quiet. The bed was firm but not like a rock, and I had several different pillows to choose from. I actually wrote down the mattress manufacturer and style - I liked it so much I want to purchase one for my home! All in all, I will stay here again when I am in the area. Great price for the space, breakfast, etc. Oh, and the wi-fi was free! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Standard chain economy hotel"
Just what you'd expect from an economy hotel. Outdated rooms and old carpet, smelled like smoke in the hallways. But the area was just what we needed, a short drive to Starbucks,and the Gateway Arch with a safe parking lot.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Chuck Patrick Review"
A few items to mention: prefer HD flat screen for the TV; desk area was very cramped; choice of breakfast cereals was very limited (Cheerios and Cocoa Puffs); prefer variety of flavored coffee creamers to be available; breakfast bacon was overcooked and greasy (I got to the breakfast area at 7:35 AM, it opened at 6 AM); heating fan ran continuously […] and loudly (was set on "Auto" but it never shut off for awhile); facility was very clean; service was impeccable; staff were friendly and helpful; appreciated ready access to USA Today; rates were quite reasonable; great location for access to Scott AFB (10 minutes); easy access from Lambert Airport.

My stay at this hotel served the purpose, for a weekend get away. I have nothing good or bad to say it was like any typical hotel.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good hotel for traveling with your pet."
Staff was most helpful when I arrived at 8:00 p.m.Genuine Expedia guest review
Nice hotel. Didn't like the clock radio in the room. Couldn't get the alarm set on it. Breakfast eating area was really small.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great quiet hotel for anyone!"
Very clean, cozy, quiet, easy access to exits. Located back off the main highway yet very accessible to restaurants, shopping, etc.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Would stay again."
Would definitely stay overnight here again. The staff was pleasant and helpful. The breakfast was good. We were there on a busy week-end but they kept everything full.Genuine Expedia guest review

Missouri Department of Labor has provided closed captioning transcripts of our videos for your needs.
Kansas City, MO, Ambassador Steel, is among Best in Workplace Safety
>>LARRY REBMAN: We're here to honor the folks at Ambassador Steel, who have just completed the work necessary to become SHARP certified by OSHA.
>>JEFF ALBERT: It really started back in 2006. When I took over operations we were really challenged on the safety side. Our hiring practices had changed. Our safety experience began to slip. So we put a lot of processes in place, more training, more root cause analysis when one of our teammates would be injured. And so we really got very serious about it. Number one, guys are just going home to their families every day. They may be tired, but they're in the same shape they were when they walked in the plant in the morning and that's a great thing. The people you have to replace when your workers are out on disability, those costs are kind of hidden, but they really add up quickly. So there's a great financial reason to do it. Our people aren't drawing hazardous duty pay and they shouldn't be paying with their bodies if we're not paying attention to safety.
>>REBMAN: The message for today is that a solid foundation starts with safety and Ambassador Steel has embraced that concept and lives and breathes with it every day and we're very proud of their workforce.

Marysville, Ohio 1 course · 18 holes Driving directions
Course reviews
+1 votes Eric Watkins › October 8, 2010
This course has many nice holes, but how they flow from one to the other can be tough to follow. A good mix of trees and open areas and some elevation changes. Watch out for the river beside a few holes!! (it eats disc's). Also mid to late summer bring your bug spray. All in all a fun course to play.

Love the long holes. Be careful on the back nine. I love the mix of wooded and open holes. Watch out for ticks in the summer. Very fun course to play
+0 votes Justin Smith › August 10, 2011
very hard from moving from hole to hole. Not a very well kept course. one hole was missing (ether 3 or 4). this course was a lot better 5 years ago. now its a ghetto front 9 with a beautiful back 9

This course has come a long way since its opening, the course has no trash, because the players who are local keep it pick up. When the pins are in the long positions it is one of the toughest tournment courses around. If a player gores by the rules when playing this course counting all the o.b shots from the back tees not many are going to shoot par. It is also a fun course for everyone not just the tournment player. This is a multi use park so there are bikers, joggers and walkers and for some ...

FAQ for Students
If you don't proofread, what is it that you do?
We work to improve the overall structure and organization of your argument, your use of sources, and more. We will also help you with grammar and punctuation problems when we notice a pattern of them; however, we don't "proofread" by simply "fixing" everything for you—if we did, you might not learn to find and correct these problems yourself.
What if I don't have a thesis or have anything written at all?
We'll help! We are excellent at helping you to brainstorm ideas and to form those ideas into a thesis and outline.
Isn't the WORD Studio just for first-years?
No, all writers and speakers benefit from getting feedback from others. All scholars and professional authors—even your professors!—have had their work read and critiqued by many other people.
Can you help me with my PowerPoint or my oral presentation? What is that room with the camera for?
We can give you feedback on the content and delivery of your speeches, as well as on the content, organization, and layout of PowerPoint presentations. While you can simply sit at a table or at a computer with a tutor to go over the content of presentations, you can also get feedback on your delivery. Our presentation rehearsal room allows you to video yourself giving a speech and/or running through a PowerPoint; you can watch yourself on the big screen and take a DVD with you for further review.
Do I need to make an appointment?
No; however, if you do, you will be sure to have a tutor ready to meet you (we do get busy). Also, if you need to use the oral presentation room, we suggest making an appointment ahead of time so that the equipment is ready when you arrive.
Will I be able to get a tutor who has taken my class before?
Not necessarily the same class, though since our tutors come from a wide range of majors, you may be able to make an appointment with someone with background in the subject. Remember also that all SLU students take courses from a variety of disciplines, and that good writing and communication is similar in all subjects, so even a tutor who hasn't taken a specific course can give you good feedback.
Will my professor think I'm a bad student if I come here?
No, they appreciate the extra effort that you have put into your work. Some professors have admitted that when they are stuck between two grades for an assignment, evidence of a WORD visit has bumped the student to the higher grade.
My professor is requiring me to come for a visit, but I don't have time to do it. Can I just have a record sheet signed?
No. We will be happy to sit down and have a conference with you, though. In thirty minutes, we will concentrate on the one or two biggest questions you have about your work so as to make the time you're spending with us worthwhile.
Can I use the stapler/hole-punch/paperclips? Can I use the computers back there?
Yes, you can use what's available on our front desk, but would you like to have a conference over that paper that you are stapling? Our computers are for use during conferences or by staff.
Can I borrow a Hacker/MLA guide/dictionary? Do you have a handout for ____?
We have many resources we want you take advantage of. Our handouts are always free and available; however, if you want to borrow a book, we will just ask you to leave your ID with us.
Is this where I come to get ink/toner/paper, to get my computer fixed, or to print color?
Nope. Check with the Systems Office, next door to us.
Can we just look at my paper off my laptop?
Although you may bring your laptop in and make your notes about our conference directly on your document, we ask that you print a separate copy (on scrap paper, if you're concerned about consumption) for your tutor to have in front of him or her so that both you and the tutor can clearly see the work.
Do you judge me when you see me later on campus? Do I have to say "hi" to you?
Well…we're students, too. We are also people and we appreciate having our existence acknowledged.
How do I get a job here?
Ask a professor to recommend you to the Interim Director, Claire Plagge. Beginning in Fall 2008, tutors are also required to take a one-credit course, Rhetoric and Communication for Peer Mentors.
This paper is pretty technical (scientifically). Can you still help?
Yes, but you might also benefit from visiting the Science Writing Center located in Launders Library.

Makes 4 main-course servings
These mussels are a snap to prepare, and make a hearty meal when paired with a loaf of crusty bread to mop up the rich tomato broth.
Be sure to buy your mussels the day you make this dish, as they don't keep well at home.
- 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes (optional)
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 1 cup tomato sauce
- 4 pounds mussels (preferably cultivated), scrubbed and beards removed
Cook garlic and red pepper flakes (if using) in oil in a 6- to 8-quart heavy pot over moderately low heat, stirring, until garlic is pale golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add wine and boil over high heat 2 minutes. Add tomato sauce and mussels and cook over moderately high heat, covered, stirring occasionally, until mussels just open wide, 6 to 8 minutes. (Discard any mussels that are unopened after 8 minutes.) Serve immediately.

October Work Group Wrap-Up
Volunteers gathered on October 17th and 18th for our last work group weekend of the year. We spent the 17th sewing blankets and the 18th sewing sleepers. Thanks to their diligent hours of sewing, previous records were shattered!
Can you guess how many blankets this is?
That table is holding a total of 189 finished blankets! Incredible! When the sewing is finished, we bag up the blankets in garbage bags so they are "ready to grab" for donation. Each bag holds about a dozen blankets with equal numbers for boys and girls. Unfortunately I didn't get a picture of the bags this time. There must have been 15 of them. They filled our dining room floor!
These ladies sat all day and turned the blankets right side out for top-stitching. They worked so hard!
Many people think that they can't help if they don't know how to sew. This is one of the jobs that we give our non-sewers. They get to look at all of the blankets, which makes the sewers jealous. They also help us stack them and attach donation tags. We are so grateful for the help of non-sewers!
The 18th (day two) was spent sewing blanket sleepers. Behold the finished stack of cuteness. 89 finished sleepers with zippers!
The sleepers are sewn in an assembly line fashion. We have 3-5 sewers per table and each table works on one color of sleepers at a time. These ladies were really sick of red by the end of the day, but we are going to have some very sweet Christmas sleepers.
We also made girlie sleepers…
And some for the boys…
Thank you to everyone who volunteered their time for this event: Allison Kuhns, Alyssa Mehmert, Audrey Knox, Brenda Dudley, Carla Lyons, Darlene Welsh, Deb Nollen-Richter, Hazel Kerr, Jackie Mason, Jan Blevins, Jane Krogmeier, Jeanie Hana, Katie Wildman, Kerry Dlouhy, Kim Horras, Laura Brofitt, Mary Anne Sheets, Megan Gugliano, Michele Hogue, Nancy Fisher, Peg Gugliano, Sheri Null and Susan Smith.
