text: Quick Weeknight Family Meals Dinnertime Crunch: 26 Easy 30-Minute Meals For the Entire Family by Rebecca Gruber 8/19/13 99 Reactions 575 Shares Print 511 28 28 8 0 School's in session, extracurricular activities have begun, and the family's schedule is crazier than ever. Having a family dinner — one where everyone sits down together to eat and talk about their days — may sound daunting when juggling so many schedules, but it isn't impossible. To accomplish the family dinner, we turned to some of our favorite celebrity chefs and restaurateurs — all parents themselves — to sneak a peek at the 30-minute meals they prepare for their own families. With chefs like Everyday Foods' Sarah Carey, Weelicious's Catherine McCord, Jessica Seinfeld, Michael Chiarello, and more sharing everything from tacos and paninis to grilled shrimp and pretzel-crusted chicken, we've got more than a month of school-night dinners right at your fingertips. Take a look, and then tell us which work best for your family! Spaghetti With Tuna, Lemon, and Breadcrumbs "This one is great because the pasta and tuna are both pantry staples," says Sarah Carey of Everyday Food. "Families will want to make this meal because it's easy, delicious, and affordable. Parents can stock up on most of the ingredients when they are on sale." 1 / 26 Spicy Citrus Grilled Shrimp What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Kelsey Banfield's The Naptime Chef specializes in quick and easy recipes that can be prepared in about as long as it takes a tot to nap. Her spicy citrus grilled shrimp "can easily be prepared at any time during the day and grilled up in no time for dinner." 2 / 26 Mummy's Pot Noodles What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Ramen noodles are a kiddie favorite because they're quick and tasty, but the prepackaged versions aren't exactly healthy with all of that sodium loaded into their spice packets. Annabel Karmel says, "It only takes a few minutes to make your own and it's fun to serve them in a cup. You can add different vegetables or chicken to make this more hearty. It would also make a good snack after school." 3 / 26 Whole Wheat Pretzel Cutlets What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 When Louisville-based chef Levon Wallace heads home to his two kids, he knows that his gourmet offerings from Proof on Main take far too long to prepare for a weeknight dinner. His solution is a turkey cutlet that uses one of the tots' favorite snacks and takes less than a half-hour to prepare. It's so tasty that his restaurant staff even ask for it! 4 / 26 Turkey Sliders With Baked Potato Wedges What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Dinnertime may be a rush, but it's a great time to bring kids into the kitchen. In this month's Everyday Food, Sarah Carey shares a recipe that kids can easily lend a hand in making. "Give burgers and 'fries' a healthier, more kid-friendly spin by baking them in the oven (no spattering grease!). Just make sure a grown-up handles the pans." 6 / 26 Mexican Skillet Casserole What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The most-requested recipe on Amanda Haas's site, this Mexican skillet casserole is bound to become a family favorite. Filled with rice, cheese, and beans, it can easily be eaten on its own or rolled up in a burrito. 6 / 26 Rosemary Chicken Under a "Brick" What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Skip the chicken nuggets and serve up some old-fashioned chicken thighs for dinner. Jessica Seinfeld says this rosemary chicken under a "brick" is an all-time family favorite because it is "crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside." We bet the kids will fall in love with the flavorful dish — Jessica says it's a mainstay in the Seinfeld household — and Mom and Dad will love that the whole dish only takes 25 minutes! 7 / 26 Seitan Tacos What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Whether you're a vegan family, it's meatless Monday in your home, or you're simply trying to get the kids to eat less meat, seitan is a great option. Made from wheat, it can be sauteed and crumbled up to look just like ground beef. Weelicious's Catherine McCord's seitan taco recipe takes only 25 minutes to make, and "when mixed with spices it's pretty incredible — you may even fool some die hard meat eaters you know!" 8 / 26 Simply Super Salmon Teriyaki What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 We can't stress the benefits of omega-3 fatty acids enough. The healthy fats — found in oily fish like salmon, trout, tuna, and mackerel — optimize messaging between nerve cells in the brain, keeping the brain functioning properly. Getting kids to eat the nutrient-rich foods isn't a fight when it is well seasoned. Annabel Karmel says, "My children and I all love Japanese food, and it is well worth investing in bottles of sake and mirin (sweet Japanese cooking wine), as you will want to make this salmon teriyaki over and over again!" 9 / 26 Easy Chicken Nuggets What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Chicken nuggets are a staple in many mamas' arsenals. They're easy, the kids like them, and they don't take much thinking — and that's a good thing, because you probably don't want to know what's in the store-bought version. Weelicious's Catherine McCord's easy chicken nugget recipe only takes 15 minutes to prepare and 15 minutes to cook — and you know all of the ingredients. She says she likes to "make a huge batch and keep them in the freezer for future meals, so not only do they save on the expense of boxed nuggets but also the time it takes to go to the grocery to buy them." 11 / 26 Baked Chicken Nuggets What kid doesn't like chicken nuggets? Skip the freezer versions and try Sarah Carey's baked version that appeared in the April issue of Everyday Food. "Chicken nuggets are a classic kid meal, but adults love them, too," says Sarah. "These nuggets are baked, so you can enjoy them guilt-free. A three-step breading method — coating chicken pieces in flour, egg, and breadcrumbs — seals in moisture and gives a crisp crunch without a lot of added fat." 11 / 26 Marinated Beef With Vegetables What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Beef doesn't have to be an all-day affair. Annabel Karmel says, "This delicious, quick, and easy-to-prepare beef stir-fry is bound to become a family favorite. It makes a great all-in-one meal." 12 / 26 Pork and Mango Stir-Fry What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Meals that can be prepped in the morning and then quickly cooked at dinnertime are ideal for families juggling after-school activities. This pork and mango stir-fry from Amanda Haas and Cooking Light — which can also be made with chicken breasts — can be prepped before everyone heads off for work and school in the morning and then cooked in just 10 minutes! 13 / 26 Cheesy Chicken Taquitos What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 "I love taquitos, but most of the time when you find them, either at a fast food chain or your local Mexican restaurant, they're deep fried to make them extra crispy and give them that great fried flavor," Weelicious's Catherine McCord says. "They're delicious, but I was intent on making an equally appealing yet healthier version." And that she did. In her forthcoming Weelicious: One Family. One Meal (currently available for preorder), Catherine shares her cheesy chicken taquito recipe, which, when served up with an avocado sauce for dipping, is a healthy (and tasty) alternative to the frozen and restaurant versions. 14 / 26 Mozzarella and Tomato Panini What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Michael Chiarello's daughter, Gianna, and her friends loved these golden brown grilled sandwiches as kids. He would make them on Saturdays while they were swimming or playing and cut them into small triangles for easy eating. 15 / 26 No Work Chicken What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 OK, so this recipe technically takes an hour, but it is perfect for busy moms. No Work Chicken involves very little work at all, and the results look delicious. (According to Weelicious's Catherine McCord, "not just another chicken recipe, this one immediately earned a distinguished place in our dinner rotation.") When the kids are getting ready for school, whip up the marinade and soak the chicken breasts all day. When everyone gets home, simply place the breasts in the oven and bake. That's all it takes! 16 / 26 Every-Week Roast Chicken Roast chicken sounds like a time-consuming meal, but as Sarah demonstrates on Everyday Food with Sarah Carey, it's easier and faster than you think. "Every week, I make a roast chicken," says Sarah. "Five minutes of prep and an hour of twiddling my thumbs results in the most delicious dinner, plus plenty of leftovers (at least while my kids are still small) to use in soups, sandwiches, and more in the days that follow." When paired with Sarah's smashed potatoes, it's a winning weeknight recipe. 17 / 26 Egg Fried Rice What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Leftover rice gets a fun and healthy upgrade with Annabel Karmel's egg fried rice. She says adding chicken, prawns, and vegetables to it "makes a complete meal, and this is a great, quick supper to throw together for all the family — and a great one for using leftovers. It's fun to serve chicken rice in a bowl with some child-friendly chopsticks." 18 / 26 1970s Tacos In the September issue of Everyday Food, Sarah Carey reminisces about her Aunt Colleen's tasty beef tacos. Sarah says, "The secret is in the filling: Using a few bold flavors and zesty spices is just as easy as tossing in some store-bought seasoning packet and way more delicious! Now I make them for my kids on special occasions — like Monday-night dinner." 19 / 26 Pizza Balls What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 There are few families that don't love pizza night! Sitting around the table and chatting it up over a few slices is always fun, but sometimes it needs a lil shake-up. Weelicious's Catherine McCord's pizza balls are the perfect way to incorporate veggies into the pizza night routine. She says, "When these pizza balls are piping hot, the little spheres pull apart to reveal gooey melted cheese and whatever toppings you can think of to put inside. They're great for dinner, to put in the lunchbox, or even for when you need an afternoon snack that will sate your kids without stuffing them before dinner." 20 / 26 Parmesan-Crusted Tilapia What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Getting kids to try fish can be tricky, but just read the ingredients in Amanda Haas and Cooking Light's parmesan-crusted tilapia and you know it is something your kids will love. Amanda says it tastes great on its own or served in fish tacos for kids who love to build things! 21 / 26 Middle Eastern Chicken Burgers What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 If your kids love hamburgers, it's time to introduce them to the burger's fun new cousin. Weelicious's Catherine McCord replaces the beef in the traditional patty with ground chicken and then jazzes it up with some fresh herbs from the garden to create Middle Eastern chicken burgers. "By incorporating some curry, garlic powder, fresh parsley, and mint into the ground chicken and sauce, you give the ordinary burger a huge burst of unforgettable flavors." She says her family enjoys them off the bun as much as on! 22 / 26 Crisper Drawer Pasta What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 With four daughters running around her home, Melissa d'Arabian knows about the chaos that can occur at dinnertime. The Food Network host and author of Ten Dollar Dinners also knows that busy moms can't always remember what's hiding in the corners of the refrigerator. That's how she came up with Crisper Drawer Pasta, a quick and productive weeknight meal — the whole recipe can be made in 30 minutes — that helps use up everything in the crisper drawer. 23 / 26 Couscous Salad With Chickpeas, Tomatoes, and Mint What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 On weekday nights, every minute counts, and if Mom and Dad don't need to turn on the stove, that's precious moments saved! Jessica Seinfeld's couscous salad with chickpeas, tomatoes, and mint doesn't require any oven time, as it simply uses hot tap water for making the couscous. Packed with protein and flavor, Jessica says, "It's also perfect the next day for a brown-bag lunch." 24 / 26 Weeknight Cobb Salad What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 When it comes to creating a quick and healthy weeknight meal for his 4-year-old daughter, Lydia, Lachlan Mackinnon-Patterson turns to an all-American classic — the chef salad. Not only is it quick, but it is also full of bright colors and various food groups. "This is something we make with Lydia once a week. [It's] quick to put together. She helps put it together and it's a complete meal full of all sorts of different textures." Source: Thinkstock 25 / 26 Chocolate Panini What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 For dessert, Michael Chiarello says there's nothing better, or faster, than a fresh chocolate panini. An indulgence for sure, this combination of thick-cut bread, bittersweet chocolate, and crème fraiche can easily become a family favorite — plus it's fun for the kids to make once dinner is done! 26 / 26 511 28 28 8 0 Back to Homepage Comments Read More Kid-Friendly RecipesCelebrity ChefsBack To School celebrity chefs 18 Chefs Brave the Ice Bucket Challenge 13 hours ago 17 of Our Favorite Martha Stewart Recipes 2 weeks ago The Chefs' Guide to Fast Food 3 weeks ago Forget the Fireworks — These Celebs Were All About the Food This Fourth 7/07 The Story You Haven't Heard About Giada De Laurentiis's Rise to Fame 6/29 8 Delicious Dishes and Cocktails — With a Dash of Weird 6/24 Back to School How to Deal With Difficult PTA Moms (With Dignity) 44 minutes ago 18 Healthy Sandwich Ideas That Make Lunchtime Special 12 hours ago 31 Tips For The Best School Year Ever 14 hours ago 8 Stylish Updates to Your Childhood Back-to-School Classics 19 hours ago School-Ready Apps For the Science Wiz 20 hours ago Encourage Homework Diligence With an Inspiring Study Station 1 day ago Kid-Friendly Recipes 15 Fun Food Ideas Your Kids Can Make on Their Own 3 days ago Mural Meals: Be Inspired by Beautiful Bento Boxes 1 week ago 16 Kid-Friendly Chicken Recipes That You Can Make in the Crockpot 1 week ago 8 Sweet and Savory Recipes to Introduce Your Kids to Quinoa 1 week ago 25 Ways to Bring Disney Magic to the Lunch Box 1 week ago 10 Awesomely Fun Ways to Celebrate National Waffle Day 2 weeks ago What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 0Reactions Link Love Mom forced to stop feeding baby homemade formula — BabyCenter Blog The easiest ways to save on organic food — The Stir A look inside Fergie's second baby shower — Celebrity Baby Scoop Danielle Jonas debuts her baby bump — People Moms & Babies 7 light and fresh recipes to take you through Summer — FitPregnancy Does where you live affect your risk for PPD? — The Bump Where to find the best deals on school supplies — Real Simple Now this is how you announce a pregnancy! — HuffPost Parents

Soshi made a comeback on Music Core with 3 performancesOctober 22, 2011
On October 22nd, SNSD heated up MBC 'Show! Music Core' with 3 songs from their 3rd album, 'The Boys'.
SNSD kicked off their comeback stages with the Korean version of the Japanese hit which took Japan's Oricon Chart by storm, 'Mr.Taxi' and then followed by 'How Great Is Your Love' which highlighted the girls' unique cuteness and innocence.
The lyrics for 'How Great Is Your Love' was written by Sooyoung and the beautiful melody of the song blended well with the 9 girls' delicate voices.
The girls then appeared in elegant and luxurious medieval-era costumes for 'The Boys' as they pulled off a powerful and energetic performance with explosive dance moves and their always-impressive singing ability.
For those who missed the awesome performances earlier, here you go! Enjoy!

Congenial staff
If you are going to take pets, you are going to need a potty area that is not several miles away.
Good to go to the airport. For one night ok.
I payd for breakfest, but if you most to go to the airport about 5 a.m, it meens that you cant breakfest. The rooms smells not good (not smoking rooms???? Realy?).
Was a nice hotel suitable for a shirt stay in the LAX area.
Air-con was loud and made it difficult to sleep
The AC in my room had a little problem when I just check in. The I got help in a minute right after I called the front desk. I am really happy about this.
No teeth brush, no shower gel and no shampoo. Disappointed with this.
Good location and the shuttle was handy to come and go between the airport and hotel.The bed was big and comfortable. Free Wi-Fi was good.
The fact that we asked several times before, and upon, check-in for a quiet room due to a medical condition (which we were assured we would get), but were put into a room above very loud traffic, therefore didn't sleep at all well.
The location was great to LAX and there was a shuttle to the airport so we didn't need to keep the rental car. The price was good.
The breakfast was just ok. They did not have any meat to go with the eggs. There are no refrigerators in the rooms. For one night it wasn't a problem but if we would have stayed longer it would have been.
We arrived at the hotel late and discovered the commode was not clean, we had no towels or service items and the bedding had black streaks. Not a good experience, especially late T night.
Location Fairly good breakfast Helpfull staff Size of the Room was large
Room Carpets had some dark smudges. Parking Fees
The breakfast & staff was nice.
The room was dirty. Couch had stains on it. Counters were dirty. Overall room was not very clean.
Great friendly helpful staff, rooms were clean and tidy with everything you needed. Breakfast was good. Had a great stay here and used it as our base as most of the attractions are spread over such a large area. Tour bus departed right outside which was really good value for money, would stay here again.
The room was clean, comfortable, and nice. The staff was helpful and friendly, and the location was easy to find.
The parking was expensive, the elevators were a little small, and the toilet had a little issue.
Everything was great! I called ahead and told the staff I would be arriving late with a sleeping child that needed a crib. The gentleman that I spoke with blocked a room for us and had a crib made and waiting upon my arrival! Staff was very nice and helpful! Thank you very much!!!
The beds are comfortable and big, seemed clean. Homemade chili sauce at breakfast
Everything's is quite run down, cheesy and takky! Breakfast was toast, eggs, waffles marmalade coffee served in plastic cups and dishes. Not very inspiring.....
The room was big and the bed was really comfortable The staff were friendly and helpful and the wifi was amazing. They allowed a late checkout. Standard 3 star hotel.
There were a lot of hairs everywhere, I think dogs must be allowed in the room. Also there were hairs in the bathroom. The toiletries provided were under basic and not like they show in the pics.
front desk staff great location to lax clean rooms Barman Great
Food selection Always out of certain drinks at bar Food server young woman always complaining about management and other staff she couldn't or did want to make a hot chocolate for us said there was none we were about to leave 40mins later and the barman bought over the hot chocolate
This time I got a good room, things were all working. Service in restaurant very good. Efficient breakfast service.
The staff were friendly, checkout was quick, breakfast is included and so is the shuttle to the airport. Parking was easy and convenient as well.
It was very noisy, causing me to get no sleep. The noise from the street outside was not bad but the noise from inside the hotel was impossible to deal with.
Proximity to Airport and rental cars.
Could do with a better bathroom.
Location was perfect for LAX
House keeping need to clean above eye level there were lots of cobwebs on the light fittings and walls. The bin for pool towels had old clothes so no had cleaned that for some time. Also we coils have done with few more choice of fruit pastries for our early morning breakfast.
Elevators where not working sometimes
Our AC didn't work, otherwise that was correct
Room smelled of smoke. The sleeper sofa was so uncomfortable no one could sleep on it. The sofa cushions were filthy and smelled. I had to take sheets from the bed and cover the sofa to try and sleep sitting up on it.
Convenient location.
Elevator noise all night long. Dirty sheets
Close to LAX
I asked the receptionist for a cab, just to go to Venice. The guy called a super expensive SUV instead of a normal yellow cab (and I suspect them to know each other). It costed me 60$ instead of 20-25$. Tricking your clients because they don't know the city well is definitely not fair. I addition to that, I'd like to mention that the air conditioning system was making a huge noise, all night, even when turned off. Couldn't sleep.
Excellent customer service and good breakfast, and the staff was helpful at checkin and provided long term parking option which was convenient and the price was competitive. In fact, we checkin and then, I did not have to move my car until 21 days later, the staff was so caring and helpful.

Thread: My Little Guy
My Little Guy
Some of you old-timers might remember a couple of years ago I shared the story of a student who was heading to Mayo Clinic to have a brain tumor worked on.
The good news, after many surgeries and such, he's doing fine.
And, he finally got his Make-A-Wish.
Here he is with THE ROCK!!!!

Vermont's mental health commissioner will have the final say over what happens to Roger Pion, the so-called cruiser crusher.
In January, Pion was found incompetent to stand trial.
Wednesday, a Newport judge issued an order of hospitalization.
Pion's lawyer says the 34-year-old man will remain committed at Fletcher Allen Health Care in Burlington until he is transitioned to a halfway house.

The White Truck Delivering Ballots
by Matt Stoller, Fri Sep 15, 2006 at 03:17:54 PM EDT
The Washington Post's Ovetta Wiggins has an article out on Maryland's 4th yesterday. Get ready for legal challenges, because Edwards won this election.
What's going on there is really bad, and it's a preview of what's coming in November considering that the Republicans have basically hired a criminal named Terry Nelson to head up the NRCC opposition 'research' department. So if you don't really know how to approach a situation like this, you should try to learn by watching it during the Edwards-Wynn dry run.
Here's the latest. The absentee ballots from Montgomery County were counted yesterday, and Wynn's lead was narrowed to 2800 votes. Most of these ballots were not in the 4th. I'm not sure if that's true about the provisionals, which are the key.
The polls closed on Tuesday evening, but voting machines in anywhere between two to eight precincts (probably controlled by Wynn's allies) were not brought in to the Maryland Board of Elections until the next day. On Wednesday at 5pm, observers saw a white moving truck pull up and deliver voting machines from several precincts in Wynn-favoring Prince George's county, one of which the Edwards campaign heavily canvassed. Though memory cards were supposed to be taken out immediately after voting closed, these machines had their memory cards still in them. Though no one can yet prove that Wynn's people tampered with the machines, the margin on those machines went for Wynn by around 65-35, which is out of line with the rest of the county. The rest of the county had it at 57 or so for Wynn.
The impact of the numbers appears to be about 1000 votes. Prior to these votes coming in, Wynn had a lead of less than 2000 votes, with 13,000 Montgomery County provisional ballots to be counted on Monday. Donna won that county by a substantial margin, which means she'll probably pick up anywhere from a few hundred to a few thousand votes on Monday when those votes are counted.
In other words, what it looks like is that Wynn or Wynn's allies held the ballot boxes they controlled back until they knew the margin Wynn needed to win on Monday, and that's when they probably did their tampering. We'll see what happens on Monday, when the provisionals are counted.
Donna Edwards should probably be the next Congressperson from the fourth. She may yet be seated in Congress next session, though I wouldn't bet my life on it.

MILWAUKEE (AP) -- Caleb Gindl hit his first career home run in the bottom of the 13th inning and the Milwaukee Brewers beat Miami 1-0 on Sunday, shutting out the punchless Marlins for the third consecutive game.
Miami has gone a club-record 37 innings without a run, the longest drought by a major league team in 28 years. The Houston Astros were held scoreless for 42 consecutive innings in July 1985, according to STATS.
The Marlins haven't scored since Derek Dietrich drove in two runs in the fourth inning of a 5-2 loss in 10 innings to the Washington Nationals on July 14.
Sunday's game was the longest scoreless game in the majors since Boston won 1-0 in 16 innings at Tampa Bay on July 17, 2011.
The Brewers were the last team in the majors to produce a shutout this season, but now have eight in the team's past 31 games. While the Marlins have been blanked 12 times.

photo album
Aug 26, 2014 | By Gary Zumwalt
We were unable to get a photo album to accommodate over 300 pictures locally. So we went online and ordered two that will hold 400 photos. These are great! Pages can be taken out or put in. No more skipping a page and finding out later and have to move all the pictures. Would recommend these to everyone. Photo albums are getting harder to find in our area so we were happy to find a good place online.

Found what I was looking for!
Jul 17, 2014 | By Mary Lynn Freeland
I was thrilled to find a 3-ring photo album (2-up) on the Get Smart Products website! I have been keeping photo albums for both of my children since they were born. With the onset of digital photos, I guess traditional photo albums are becoming obsolete. I couldn't find them in any stores in town or any other websites. Imagine my sense of excitement when I found the photo albums on this website! Thank you, Get Smart Products, for making them available. The price was reasonable and I ordered enough to help justify the shipping expense. Super fast delivery. Quality is excellent.

Adequate but lacking for memo capability
Jul 10, 2014 | By Michael Spurgeon
These were two-up 4x6 photo albums with a 1 x 6 inch memo space between the photos. The memo sheet was only able to be removed with a great deal of effort and wasted time (on which to write a narrative of the photos). This was NOT the fault of Get Smart Products but rather of poor quality control on the part of the Pioneer Photo Album Company.

Great service, Albums have issue with memo area
Jul 5, 2014 | By Michael Spurgeon
These albums are two-up (two 4x6 pockets) with a pocket for a inch inch tall memo. First the good: The rings snap tight, the website was great, speed of filling the order was fast as was the shipping to my house. The less than good: the pocket holding the memo slip would not easily release the memo slip onto which to make comments -- it took longer to get the memo slip out than filling a dozen pockets with photos. With arthritis, this was a major issue for me in an otherwise great design and good value.

The size of the filler is now smaller than previous filler. 4x6 prints barely fit and the memo slot now hold one less line of print at 12 point.

The family of Kendrick Johnson, 17, said on Tuesday that common sense leads to no other conclusion than that their son was murdered.
The case of the teenager from Valdosta has captured national headlines as the mystery of how the Lowndes County High School student died continues to create more questions than answers.
"We don't know what happened, that is what we are trying to find out," Jacquelyn Johnson said. Johnson said she is asking Gov. Nathan Deal to appoint an independent coroner to determine a cause of death of her son.
On Jan. 11, Johnson was found dead in a rolled-up wrestling mat inside the gymnasium of the high school.
According to the complaint filed with the Secretary of State's Office, funeral home owner Antonio Harrington removed Johnson's organs and replaced them with newspaper.
"At best, (Harrington) misled us as to the condition of our son's body, and at worst, is responsible for the removal and destruction of his organs, and, thus desecration of our son's body," the complaint stated. "According to information from the GBI, all of our son's organs were placed back inside of his body once the initial autopsy was completed."
Kendrick Johnson's father Kenneth said his son's body was missing all of its internal organs, including his brain.
The complaint goes on to say "Mr. Harrington may have facilitated a cover-up as to the cause of our son's death to the extent that the missing organs may have deprived our pathologists the means by which to determine how he may have died."
The family plans a rally at the Capitol on Wednesday. They expect a large turnout and hope Deal will appoint an independent coroner to look into Johnson's cause of death.

I was driving home for my lunch break & saw the eagle flying over the Maumee river & land. I went home, got my camera & went back to take these photos. The eagle was perched on a tree branch over the Maumee River at Anthony & Wayne from 12:30pm to 5:00pm. I went back when I returned from home where I watched the eagle fly away when the train came by. It was a very exciting site to experience.
Eagle spotted today!

HOUSTON -- A pioneer in cancer research is facing a second degree felony charge in an alleged plot to spy on his ex-wife while they were going through their divorce.
According to prosecutors, Dr. Steven Curley plotted with a computer expert to install a program called eBlaster.
Dr. Curley and his ex, a physician's assistant, once worked together at MD Anderson Hospital.
Curley's attorney believes a bitter divorce is behind the accusations.
"I think when the facts are revealed about the motivations of why this has come to light, he'll be vindicated," explained attorney Robert Scardino.
Curley and his alleged accomplice, Hank Lehmann, face a charge of unlawful intercept. The charge comes attached with up to 20 years in prison if convicted.
MD Anderson told WFAA sister station KHOU that Dr. Curley retired from the hospital at the end of 2013.
"He's very concerned that something like this could have an adverse affect on his career. It's certainly a distraction from what he does," added Scardino.
The program the two are accused of using is quite popular. Spy Emporium in Montrose said eBlaster is almost sold out, and people are waiting to buy more.
"Anything that's done online, any activity on a computer, it can capture and be sent to your email remotely," said Sidney May with Spy Emporium.
The software, which costs about $100, captures keystrokes and can steal passwords and email texts. May said it is "virtually undetectable."
"We have customers that come back and buy multiple copies because they want to spy on the laptop and the desktop," said May.
This case is set to go to court on Jan. 22.

Taxpayers, students, and others providing funding for Missouri State technology resources expect that these assets will be used and offered equitably. Further, they expect use of these resources to support the University's purpose of developing educated persons and mission of public affairs.
To ensure compliance with these expectations, the University requires its authorized users of the information technology resources to follow the computer and network policies outlined below, which are in coordination with the Acceptable Use Policy, Accessibility Policy and Web Policy.
Information Technology Council will periodically review and alter this policy as necessary to promote equitable access to University resources. The University reserves the right to limit, revise or prioritize any University-owned computer resource as it sees fit in the best interest of the University.
Additionally, this policy is subject to all other information technology policies. Please review all the information technology policies.
Upon request, the University issues accounts on central computer systems to authorized users. See more information on obtaining an account.
To conserve resources and maintain efficiency, the University also periodically deletes accounts that are either not being used or are issued to non-current students, staff, or faculty. Authorized users are responsible for archiving their accounts' data files prior to the deletion of their account.
Computer Services follows backup procedures and schedules on central servers to provide security and disaster recovery. Individual workstations are not backed up centrally; however, authorized users have limited file space on central servers where they can copy files they wish to have backed up.
Communication Services
Missouri State University offers high-quality communication services to Missouri State campuses and appropriate affiliates. Communication services include both telecommunication services and infrastructure for data/video networking services.
Communication services must be monitored to ensure the entire campus community receives acceptable service. As such, on-campus University units and student residents must obtain all communications services through Telecommunications Services, including new service and repairs. Additionally, all on-campus wiring for communication services must meet wiring standards set by Communication Services.
For University units, the associated administrator is responsible for determining and approving appropriate communication services, reviewing billing and ensuring proper use of these services. For residence hall service, the student resident is responsible for ensuring proper use of communication services and reviewing any applicable billing.
Networking services include both wireless and cabled video and network systems. Unauthorized network infrastructure electronics may not be connected to the campus network, including hubs, switches, wireless access points and bridges. The University occasionally allows routers with proper approval.
Additionally, workstations or servers must meet minimum computer standards before being connected to the network. Also, all workstations or servers must obtain IP addresses through Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) if possible. Computer Services can handle exceptions by issuing a special registered address. Additionally, workstations or servers connected to the Missouri State network may not host open file shares without an approved exemption from Computer Services.
The 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz spectrum are institutional resources that must be governed appropriately. Administrators of wireless networks that use these radio frequencies must centrally register their network's frequency. Additionally, devices interfering with a wireless network may be disabled, upon review. This coordination helps minimize interference problems between wireless networks and other devices using radio frequencies.
Finally, as a member of the Missouri Research and Education Network (MOREnet), Missouri State also follows MOREnet policies.
Telecommunication services include local, long-distance and messaging services. Users may not accept collect or third party calls without an approved exemption from Telecommunication Services.
The University will reimburse employees for business calls made on personal phones when a charge occurs. Additionally, employees must reimburse the University for personal calls made on business phones when a charge occurs. See the reimbursement procedures for more information.
Data Policies
All data, programs and files stored in University computer systems or accounts are subject to the University's Copyright, Creation of Intellectual Property, and Privacy policies.
University units must ensure data and software are not transferred to unauthorized users. As such, University units must erase all data from computer hard drives before transferring computers to new owners. See the workstation data security procedures for more information.
Dialup Access
All authorized users who dial up the Missouri State communications servers (modems) will be limited to a specific number of hours per month during peak usage times. While peak usage connect time remains less than the specified time for the month, the user is also granted unlimited connection time during non-peak times.
Once a user consumes his/her peak usage time allowed during a particular month, s/he will only have dialup access to the University during limited timeframes for the remainder of that month. The hour allocation will be reset on the first day of each month.
The University provides the following resources to allow account owners to track their modem usage:
- A personalized web page that displays usage as of the previous day
- Email to account owners when they reach selected thresholds of usage
In addition to the following sections, authorized users must also follow the Acceptable Use Policy related to email.
Emails must be retained pursuant to the State of Missouri and University retention schedules. Once an email message is deleted or purged, the University cannot guarantee the recovery of that email message.
Backups of the entire email system are performed on a regular basis. These backups enable the University to recover the entire email system in the event of a disaster.
Mass Email
Mass email is unsolicited email sent to more than 250 internal or external email addresses, regardless of whether the email is sent in one or several messages. Since it can degrade the email service for all users, mass email should be used sparingly.
As such, the University consolidates campus-wide announcements into two mass emails each week: one email bulletin to faculty and staff and one email bulletin to students. Authorized users may submit items for inclusion in these bulletins.
To send a mass email message outside of the email bulletins, authorized users must follow the mass email procedures. Before the mass email will be sent, the appropriate administrative team member (or his/her delegate) must approve the message.
Open-Access Computer Labs
The University open-access computer lab facilities are considered to be study areas. All activities which disrupt, attempt to disrupt, or support the disruption of a study environment will not be tolerated and corrective action will be taken.
No food or drink is permitted in the University open-access computer labs. Any food or drink must be left outside the lab in designated areas or concealed in a backpack or other bag while in the lab. Food or drink that is concealed may not be consumed while inside the lab facility.
Cellular phone calls must be handled outside of the University open-access computer lab facilities. Cellular phones are not required to be turned off; however, all incoming and outgoing phone calls must be handled outside of the computer lab.
Game playing on University owned machines in the University open-access computer labs is prohibited. Game playing in the process of software creation for a class is permitted, however, for debugging purposes only. Game playing on open network jacks is permitted; however, students pursuing academic interests will take priority.
All computer and network products and services used by the University, including purchased products and outsourced services, must comply with applicable University policies. Applicable policies may include accessibility, security, privacy or hosting requirements.
For more information about which policies apply, contact the appropriate University unit.
Viruses can disrupt the University's technology services, systems or business and damage data files. To avoid these problems on University servers, system administrators will follow procedures to remove viruses from any file found on a University server.
University units must ensure that University-owned computers run virus protection software, and users are responsible for removing viruses from their individual workstations. University units must also ensure that University-owned computers are up-to-date with all operating system critical patches/service packs. Contact the Computer Services Help Desk for assistance or more information.

The port of calls were excellent. The Freedom is a beautiful ship. Well kept and clean. I have cruised on the Dream and Glory and I rate it right up there with both of them. The staff and crew were very friendly offering assistance anytime it was needed. I would definitely recommend the Carnival Freedom to anyone that is planning on taking a cruise.
The wife and I drove from North Carolina to Fort Lauderdale and arrived at our Hotel for the night. We stayed at the Roadway Inn and Suites where we had parked our car right outside the hotel during our cruise. We were taken to Port Everglades on Saturday morning around 10:30 a.m. and were on board the Freedom by 11:30 a.m. Like I said earlier the entire cruise was exceptional. I enjoyed all the Ports we stopped at. My favorites being Curacao and Aruba. Our time on the ship was very enjoyable. I thought the food was very good with a good selection each night. Ate at the steak house one night and that was good also. Arrived back in Port Everglades on Sunday. Got called off the ship at 7:00 a.m. and was back at our Hotel and on the road home by 8:30 a.m.

Connecticut Huskies head coach Jim Calhoun will take an indefinite medical leave of absence starting immediately, according to a release from UConn Athletics Communications. Calhoun is dealing with a worsening case of spinal stenosis, a lower back condition that causes intense pain and hinders mobility.
Calhoun also took a leave of absence for several weeks in 2010. According to Dr. Peter Schulman at the UConn Healthy Center, Calhoun has been coping with this condition for months now.
"Last summer, Jim had some significant back pain and has seen two excellent back specialists," Schulman said. "The initial approach recommended to him was stretching, physical therapy and exercise, and that was successful for several months. It turns out that there is some degenerative problem in the lumbar vertebrae and it's impinging on the nerves. It has led to significant back pain and some symptoms in his lower extremities.
"Jim has been able to manage it with the physical therapy and stretching, but over the last several days, things have become worse and he is not able to deal with this on a day to day basis, so other options need to be considered. Right now, he is physically unable to coach."
According to the release, Calhoun will not coach Saturday's game against Seton Hall, nor Monday's game at Louisville. Associate head coach George Blaney will assume head coaching duties until Calhoun is deemed fit to return to the bench.
For more on Calhoun and the Huskies, head over to the SB Nation blog The UConn Blog.
