CHATTANOOGA, TN (WRCB) -- Shellie Hampton, 13, and Cordaro Cummins, 14, are expecting more than a few pickup basketball games at the South Chattanooga Rec Complex this summer."It'll keep me focused and keep me out of trouble," Shellie says."If it wasn't for this, I'd have no choice but to hang with friends out doing dumb stuff that they'd like to do, Cordaro says.Next Monday, the Parks & Recreation Department begins 8 weeks of paid day camps for grade- schoolers."Field trips and lunches, and especially gardening, all were a big success last year," spokesman Brian Smith says.But from 5-9PM in Saint Elmo, and five other rec centers: it's all about, intervention, as prevention, for so-called 'at-risk' teenagers."There's a lot of pressure on the street to not come here," intervention coordinator Marcus Thomas says.Proof of that is the 'holding area' that Mayor Ron Littlefield ordered created to hold curfew violators following a series of disturbances at Coolidge Park last summer. It never was used. So what will make this effort, effective?"We get them involved and bring them to the table," Thomas says. "We'll physically bring them here, and give them, you know--the tools to be creative."Figuratively speaking, Chattanooga's anti-gang initiative, "The Future Is Ours" is about planting seeds. A lot more seeds than will grow the vegetables for the kabobs that they'll create for a coursework in 'grilling.'"We're trying to incorporate some kind of trade into their program," Thomas says.The South Chattanooga Rec Center, for example will offer a three-days-per-week course in cosmetology, beginning June 11.Thomas is among the first to admit the only way to reach many teenagers, beyond the center's typically lower-risk regulars, is to show them how to make money, legally:"The ones that are coming back, it's probably their second or third trip," he says."They're learning how to interview."But Cordaro and Shellie believe money is only part of it."Once you actually get into it, it's not all about the money, " Shellie says."They show you things, that you still want to come back.""The fact is that it's safe, and people open their arms to them,Cordaro says."Helping us, gives us an opportunity to see what life is like."The Anti-Gang initiative unveils its full plan at noon Saturday, at the Carver Cultural Center in Orchard Knob.

Great overview of Asano's key works. It really is a shame that Viz has seemed to avoid taking risks on more mature, interesting manga titles in the past few years. I think Taiyo Matsumoto's Sunny is their first license in a long time that meets the qualifications.
While I really wish Nijigahara Holograph had been licensed -- I'm very skeptical at this point, given its ambitions and the economic times -- I'm surprised that Viz didn't license City of Light and Before Dawn and the End of the World. They're also short story collections that are tenuously connected like What a Wonderful World!, but they're a lot more mature and consistent -- City of Light came out around Solanin, and Before Dawn and the End of the World well after it. They're a real evolution in Asano's work, and don't easily resort to simple, sophomoric metaphors (the bird in the cage one in What a Wonderful World! speaks for itself).
Well, it's a relentlessly depressing/arguably self-depracating series that leaves its characters almost constantly miserable and with no hope. I really like everything else I've read by Inio Asano (which is everything up until and including Before Dawn and the End of the World), but I honestly grew irritated at all of the one-note self-hatred of the character before dropping it at about six or so volumes. I understand why people can go for that, but it's way too insular and one-dimensional for me.
On the other hand, it's the only truly long serialization that Asano has done so far, so it is at least worth a mention...

|I just think Asano's style is so pretty and the images he uses are so haunting... All I want for Christmas is for someone to license more of his work! It's a bummer that Jason's projection of "Asano planet" never came to be. Sigh!!

|it's amazing to me how often these columns send me off in search of a series I've never heard of --- often among used sellers, given the subject matter. I think this column has been responsible for maybe a quarter of my manga purchases in the past year.

That was pretty much my reason for mentioning it. It's still an ongoing work and it's got a bit of a following on some larger anime forums over here. I know my tastes aren't indicative of anything but when I hear Inio Asano I immediately think Solanin and Oyasumi Punpun.

I find it odd that descriptions of the art failed to mention how incredibly good it is, Oh well, I definitely enjoyed reading the article, I love Inio Asano, even if there wasn't a word on Punpun.
One thing - aren't the characters in Umibe no Onnanoko in junior high?

Fabric Width: Based on color selected. (The maximum width of each shade is 2" less than Fabric Width)
Because woven woods are made from natural materials, colors may vary from the same collections, depending on what season the materials were obtained.
Warranty: All of Steve's Exclusive Collection Products are backed with a limited lifetime warranty which does not cover normal wear and tear, improper installation, abuse, or other items outside of the manufacturer's control. Freight and packaging to and from the manufacturer is not covered under the warranty and is the customer's responsibility.
Natural Woven Shades are manufactured with the highest standards of quality. However, during shipment the fabric may shift slightly because of its woven construction. This may cause a slight shortening in the length of the shade or possibly in slightly uneven edges. This is very simple to fix by the following instructions:
Length: Some fabrics will stretch over time. If, after installation, the shade becomes slightly shorter than originally ordered, gently grasp the bottom of the shade and pull down carefully to stretch the shade.
Uneven Edges: Lightly tap the edges of the shade with a flat surface, such as a ruler, until the edges are even.
Note: For width specification please know the following
Inside Mount: Measure from the inside surface to the inside surface. Please provide us with exact measurements as the manufacturer will make the necessary deduction up to ½".
Outside Mount: Measure the exact area you wish to cover as the manufacturer will produce your shade to your exact measurements. Be sure to take the window trim into account.

Comments about Blinds Steve's Exclusive Collection Woven Wood Shades Wood Planks Standard:
Woven Wood shades give a natural look as they are produced with all natural materials. Each shade is unique, as the material is not replicated. They are more fragile than other types of window coverings, and privacy depends on how tightly the materials are woven together. Adding a liner helps to ensure the best privacy and light control.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Most Amazing Blinds....Ever!
By Cindy at MyHairShop
from Rochester, NY
About Me Midrange Shopper
my blinds were installed in our new living room. i have two on our very large Pella sliding glass door and another on a window. we've never received as many compliments as we have on these blinds. they were simple to install.we did our homework prior to purchasing and this company has, by far, the BEST pricing available for custom blinds.we are so extremely happy with our recent purchase...Steve's Blinds can expect all of our future business to continue with them.
Wonderful product [...]
By Beth the decorator
from Shorewood, IL
I put these blinds on the sliding glass doors leading from my living room to the deck. They are beautiful, easy to lift and lower, and fit perfectly. I have been warned that a blind large enough for a sliding glass door would be hard to operate. This one is great! Can be easily raised and lower. The fit is perfect for my door. [...]
very happy with this product.

Free Shipping on most Blind OrdersMost blind orders include FREE Ground Shipping to your home or office in the continental United States. Some manufacturers charge an oversized freight charge per order (regardless of the number of blinds) on extra wide blinds because they must use a special delivery company. The width when oversized freight charges apply varies depending on the manufacturer (usually it is around 95 inches or wider) and the charge may be up to $75 per manufacturer per order. M & B and Levolor do not charge oversized freight. Shutters have a freight charge due to the weight of the product. Most blind orders ship within 3 to 5 business days. We do ship to Canada and all other countries. Please call us or send e-mail for applicable charges. Our manufacturers impose a handling fee per order depending on the type of product and order amount that is purchased. For Blind orders, the handling fee is $4.95 per order. You will only be charged one handling fee per order and if ordering blinds and wallpaper together the total handling fee will be determined by the wallpaper order total.

A former professional volleyball player and a former Miss North Carolina are taking the head volleyball coaching positions at Panther Creek and Middle Creek.
Holly Fong, who played professional volleyball in England, is headed to Panther Creek while Adrienne Core, the Mustangs junior varsity coach and Miss North Carolina 2010, is taking the Middle Creek job.
Fong went to Sebastopol (Calif.) El Molino High School and played volleyball collegiately as a setter at High Point University and at the University of Memphis. She currently is a coach with the Chapel Hill Area Volleyball Club. Previously, she coached at the Orlando (Fla.) Volleyball Academy.
Her contacts in the volleyball circles have amazing things to say about her as a coach and a person, said Catamounts athletics director L.J. Hepp. Although she played volleyball at the highest of levels, when she looks back, she values her high school experience above the others. She has a strong desire to recreate those positive high school experiences for our volleyball athletes at Panther Creek.
Core graduated from Erwin Triton High School where she lettered in volleyball, basketball, and softball. She got her undergraduate and graduate degrees at N.C. State. She was a preliminary talent winner in Miss America with a clogging performance.
I had more success earlier in basketball, but I never loved it as much as I did volleyball, Core said. I have a passion for the game.
Shoomee second: Lee County junior Muk Shoomee was the golf match play runner-up in the N.C. Junior Girls Championship last weekend at the Starmount Forest Country Club in Greensboro.
Grace Yatawara, a rising junior at Salisbury High, claimed a 3 and 2 victory.
The match was even after nine holes, but Yatawara won Nos. 10, 11 and 13 to take a three up lead. Shoomee birdied No. 14 , but Yatawara won No. 15 with a par. The players tied on No. 16 to give Yatawara a three-hole lead with two holes remaining.
Shoomee won the N.C. High School Athletic Association 3A girls golf championship last fall.
ECH coach: Ray Hartsfield, the East Chapel Hill boys basketball coach, said Wednesday that the Wildcats hope to name a new head football coach before the week is out. Jon Sherman resigned this spring after the club was 3-8 in his only season as head coach.
Hillside basketball: Crasten Davis, the Durham Hillside boys basketball coach for the past three years, will not be back on the bench for the Hornets next season. He had a 55-27 overall record including a 16-12 mark in 2013-14 and a 21-8 record in 2012-13.
Basketball transfers: High Point Wesleyan was the N.C. Independent Schools Athletic Association 3A boys basketball champion in 2013 and looks just as strong this season with the expected return of 6-foot-9 Harry Giles and a pair of key transfers.
Kwe Parker, a 6-foot-2 guard with ACC offers, is expected to transfer from Fayetteville Trinity Christian to Wesleyan to play for Coach Keith Gatlin.
Junior point guard Brandon Childress, the son of former Wake Forest University standout Randolph Childress, is expected to move from East Forsyth to Wesleyan as well.

About a month ago, my oldest daughter, S, and I were watching a show on skydiving. I told her that I wanted to skydive one day and she quickly said that she did too. Well, I am pretty sure there are laws against throwing 9 year olds out of planes so I researched indoor skydiving. I found a place in town and told my daughter about it. She was very excited and told me that's what she wanted to do for her birthday. So we did.
From the time we got to the facility, until the time we left, my daughter could not stop smiling. After a brief training demo, we suited up and lined up in the flight tube for our first flight. When S was next in line, I asked her if she wanted me to go first. She looked up at me, smiled brightly and shook her head "no." At that moment, I felt that I was doing something right. This kid was fearless. She flew like the superhero that I always wanted to be. That day, she was MY superhero with no strings attached.

What are Flower Essences?Flower essences are the blossoms of plants prepared from a sun infusion in a bowl of water, then further diluted, potentized, and then preserved with brandy. These preparations embody the distinct imprint, or energetic pattern of each flower species. In holistic healing flower essence therapy is categorized under vibrational medicine. Vibrational medicine incorporates the use of chi energies within living organisms such as plants, gemstones and crystals, water, sunlight, and even the foods we eat.
Flower Essence Therapy OriginsThe founder of flower essence therapy was an English surgeon named Dr. Edward Bach. Dr Bach was a pioneer in understanding the connection of our emotional bodies to our physical health. The 38 original flower remedies, known as Bach Healing Herbs were used to treat the underlying emotional causes of diseases.
Ill health (physical imbalances and dis-eases) results when we are in imbalance or when we lose our awareness, are disassociated from others, or disconnected from our life purpose. The living forces of nature collected from the blooms of our flowering plants, prepared, and placed in liquid stock. and dosage bottles are used in healing our physical, etheric, astral, and spiritual bodies.
- A to Z Flower Essences
- Buy Flower Essence Tinctures -
- How To Process Flower Essences
- Index of flower essence remedies categorized by issue/imbalance.
How Flower Essences Are Applied
Flower essences enjoy a reputation of being highly effective and very safe to use. Flower essences, or flower drops as I like to call them, can be taken directly from the stock bottle. A few drops are typically applied under the tongue. Alternately, three to four drops of stock essences are mixed into a liter of purified water that is sipped throughout the day.
Specialized combinations of essences are commonly prepared in one ounce dosage bottles. A dosage bottle will normally last ten to fourteen days.
The medical community is not convinced that there is enough evidence to support the effectiveness of flower essences. This is fair, admittedly, vibrational energy is very difficult to measure by scientific means. Yet, in the holistic community, flower essences are favored by practitioners to address emotional and spiritual imbalances. People suffering from clinical depression or other mental health issues should contact a licensed mental health professional for treatment.
Intuitively Selecting Flower EssencesSelecting essences can in itself be a process of inner growth and awareness. Through quiet reflection, meditation, self observation, and consulting and conversation with others, it is possible to become aware of issues in our lives that demand our attention. These may be related to any area of our lives, our work, our relationships, or our personal selves. I tend to see the flowers visually with my third eye, yet when I cross reference my visuals in my flower essence resource books. I am always amazed at how accurate intuitive-chosen flowers are. Kinesiology testing is another way that people can use to select the appropriate essences for themselves.
What is Your Flower Essence IQ?Test Your Knowledge of Flower Essences and Flower Essence Therapy
Helpful Tips:
- Standard dosage for flower essences is four to ten drops under the tongue four times per day.
- Potency is increased not by taking more drops at one time, but by increasing the frequency.
- You can benefit greatly by consulting an experienced flower essence practitioner.
Although people occasionally notice immediate shifts when taking flower essences, others may experience difficulty perceiving any changes due to the gradual effects flower essences normally take. Taking flower drops over time will build a stronger and stabilizing influence in our relationships, in our attitudes, in our stresses, and in our overall state of well-being. Flower essences are not cure-alls. Flower essences are intended to be our helpers in aligning our life energy toward healthy growth and development.
An appropriate flower essence to keep near your computer for frequent use is yarrow. Yarrow essence helps relieve feelings of vulnerability and protects us from absorbing environmental influences (especially rampant within office atmospheres). When environmental and social forces threaten to overwhelm us...yarrow helps!

Rules, Tactics or Myths?

9. Strong winds (both size-up and fire behavior component).
10. Evacuation of public with potential for panic (a consideration on any major incident).
In analyzing each of "The Structural Situations That Shout 'Watch Out,' " they are either a size-up component or an input of making a fire behavior prediction.
Conclusion: "The Structural Situations That Shout 'Watch Out,' " taken as a whole, is a myth.
• The fire shelter is a last-resort piece of personal protective equipment – This was discussed extensively in my column in the September 2010 issue.
Conclusion: The fire shelter as a last-resort piece of equipment is a myth.
• Stay mobile, don't hook-up to a hydrant and don't lay a supply line – This is probably the most misunderstood of all one-liners. It is mentioned in almost every text and article, yet there is a time to stay mobile and likewise there is a time to lay a supply line. An example of when to stay mobile is an assignment at a WUI fire and where the housing area to which you are assigned is determined to be a safe area, but the home that may be directly impacted is not predictable. Obviously, stay mobile and commit when and where needed, using best hoselay practices.
An assignment that may require committing and perhaps laying a short supply line would be a structure with a safety zone present where the engine will not be leaving. If it is determined that additional water may be needed, lay the supply line.
Some pointers I've mentioned in previous columns: Never bet your crew or your apparatus on water staying in the hoseline. If you are sure you will need more water than you bring to the fight, consider other options. There is additional safety in water. In the future I will write a detailed article on this subject.
Conclusion: Stay mobile, don't hook-up or don't lay a supply line is a myth.
The purpose of writing this column is to inform firefighters that what is written as gospel may be just a suggestion. Wildland fire behavior can change rapidly and tactics must be adjusted accordingly.

At my Firehouse World 2011 presentation in San Diego, CA, "Station, Esperanza and Calabasas Burnovers: Common Denominators," I'm scheduled to be joined by Captain John Culbertson, Ph.D., and Division Chief Brian Crandell of the Central Valley Fire District in Montana to provide a three-hour review of critical clues that lead to underestimated and unexpected fire behavior. In addition, Los Angeles County Fire's Rob Morales, Camp 16 crew supervisor (engineer rank), will share his story from the burnover at Camp 16 so that firefighters may learn from this tragedy. The class takes place on March 1 from 8:30 to 11:30 A.M.
JP HARRIS is a battalion chief (ret.) with the Los Angeles County, CA, Fire Department, where he served for 38 years. For 10 years, he trained crew supervisors and superintendents in prescription burning and firing operations as part of the Los Angeles County Fire Department Prescription Burn Program. Harris has served as a camp-, battalion- and division-level instructor for Los Angeles County Fire, developing and instructing wildland, structure and survival techniques for cooperating agencies throughout the western United States. He also has taught numerous wildland firefighting classes to career and volunteer firefighters and created the five-volume "Wildland Video Series." He can be contacted at email@example.com.

Bar Council chairwoman says sex suspects 'should not be named'
12:20pm Sunday 17th February 2013 in Lewisham By Robert Fisk, Chief Reporter
PEOPLE accused of sex crimes should have their identities protected until they are convicted, a senior lawyer has said.
Under current legislation, people who complain they have been the victims of sexual offences automatically receive anonymity, but suspects do not.
Maura McGowan, chairwoman of the Bar Council, believes the law should be changed because allegations of a sexual nature "carry such a stigma".
"Until they they have been proven to have done something as awful as this - I think there is a strong argument in cases of this sort, because they carry such stigma with them, to maintain the defendant's anonymity, until he is convicted," she told BBC Radio 5.
"But once the defendant is convicted then of course everything should be open to scrutiny and to the public."
Ms McGowan conceded there were arguments on both sides, for the naming of a suspect and for keeping them anonymous until proven guilty.
She said that in the past, when people accused of sex crimes had been granted anonymity, there was a sense that it gave them too much protection.
"There is obviously a public interest in open justice," she said. "People would say that they are entitled to know not simply who's convicted but who's been accused."
Ms McGowan cited the case of Jimmy Savile as representing the benefit of suspects being named. "In a case like that, people would say, if one complainant comes forward against a person it might give other people who don't know her, but who went through the same experience the courage to come forward as well," she said.
Ms McGowan's stance was backed by Terry Harrison, who was falsely accused of rape five years ago and contemplated suicide because of the abuse he suffered after he was named in the media.
He told the BBC: "If the person has done the crime as heinous as that (rape), then they should be named and shamed, I agree, but not until they've actually been done for it."
What do you think? Should sex crime defendants remain anonymous until they are convicted?

One was a man met a girl at a club, back to his place & had consensual sex. Next day she realised her husband wouldn't be please so she claimed rape
The alleged rapist was named in court - the "victim" confessed she'd made it up but he lost his job & had problems getting another as people thought no smoke without fire......

However, I would like named and shamed those who falsely accuse and have them pay compensation to their victim (the person they accused).
This might make they think again about lying.

Island Avenue Second Grade Class Size
We have learned that there are plans to eliminate on of the second grade classrooms for the 2008-2009 school year at Island Avenue. This will keep class sizes hovering at 23 instead of reducing class size to approximately 17. We, the undersigned call on the Madison School Board and the Superintendent to retain all four second grade classrooms at Island Avenue School for the 2008-2009 school year. Research supports that classes of 17 and smaller in the early elementary years.

Town Square
Defamation lawsuit against a MP FProtection District Board member Virgina Chang Kirlay won't be dismissed.
Original post made by Susan Smith on Jan 23, 2013
" judge has tentatively ruled there's enough merit to a defamation lawsuit against a Menlo Park Fire Protection District Board member that it won't be dismissed.
The Oct. 11 suit filed by John Woodell -- a San Mateo County Democratic Committee member and the husband of Menlo Park Council Member Kirsten Keith -- alleges that Virginia Chang Kiraly defamed him by telling people he stole numerous campaign signs when she was running for a seat on the fire district board.
Kiraly filed a motion Nov. 26 in which she denies making any such statement and calls Woodell's lawsuit "frivolous." In arguing for the suit's dismissal, Kiraly said it "seeks to chill legitimate public discourse" related to the contested 2011 fire district election.
In his Jan. 18 tentative ruling, San Mateo County Superior Court Judge Raymond Swope said Kiraly failed to significantly show the "challenged cause of action is one 'arising from' protected activity." In addition, Woodell's lawsuit "demonstrated a probability of prevailing on his defamation claim," Swope wrote.
Woodell's lawyer, Seth Rosenberg, said Tuesday he was "obviously quite pleased with the judge's analysis."
on Jan 23, 2013 at 7:43 am
Why can't these people who want represent us behave in a responsible, Adult manner? I would have thought this sort of behavior would have been 'shaken out' in high school, and because it wasn't, we all get to endure the babyshambles of the current Chang-Kiraly circus... Menlo Park Fire has had many probems over the years, and it looks poorly when their elected officals behave like this, well, it just feels old and expensive.
on Jan 23, 2013 at 4:08 pm
Career politico -- Circus is a good word to describe this situation. Not to mention that the other elected person, Rob Silano, was heavily supported by the union, and there still isn't a contract.
I agree the FD has had its share of problems -- union lawsuits, grievances, etc. This Kiraly lawsuits just adds to the ongoing drama there.
on Jan 23, 2013 at 4:20 pm
Sometimes people say things that probably should not be said. Very, very rarely, a person files a lawsuit over it. This will wind up being very unpleasant situation.
It's bound to happen sometime with the Almanac blogs, with all the anonymous attacks going on. Someone will wind up filing a lawsuit naming a "John Doe" defendant, and taking discovery to determine who posted it. That's why I suggest the Almanac prohibit all anonymous postings that attack or criticize any named individual. Anonymous postings should be limited to expressing opinions about issues, not people.

Cape Coral city leaders are to decide if K C's River Stop in Cape Coral will stay open Monday.
For nearly two decades, people have flocked to the little restaurant at Cape Coral Yacht Club Community Park.
The lease is now up and city leaders are meeting Monday to decide if the restaurant will stay or go.
If the lease isn't renewed, it will be closed to make way for something else.
Loyal customers are petitioning to keep K C's open.
John Bajor, like many, spends an occasional weekend soaking up the sun in Cape Coral.
"I don't see anything that's not to like. And if it were replaced by something different it would surely be missed," Bajor said.
Scott Davis has gone through this before. Three years ago, the restaurant was in the same boat.
"Last time their petition was up I signed a petition then, too," Davis said.
So far about 1,400 people signed this petition.
The owner- wouldn't go on camera, but she's humbled by all the support.

Campers' complaints have led a campground owner to try to evict a registered sex offender.
Keith Douglas Dixon, 42, was convicted of indecent liberties with a child in 1998, records show.
He now lives at a campground off Highway 55 in the Cove City area of Craven County.
Other campers learned of Dixon's status as a registered sex offender and threatened to leave the park if Dixon did not go first, according to the campground's owner, Kirby Wetherington.
Four families complained, Wetherington said.
"I'm not going to lose four rentals on account of one," Wetherington said.
There have not been any incidents at the campground that have led to the eviction process, he added.
Instead, it's a financial decision for Wetherington,
Dixon is planning to fight the eviction.
"He's throwing me out on the street," Dixon said.
"It's very embarrassing for me to go through this."
Dixon has not had any convictions since the 1998 case and has no pending charges.
A Craven County Sheriff's Office official said Dixon is not breaking any law by living at the campground.
There will be an eviction hearing in June; a magistrate will decide what happens next in the case.

USA Today: Tracking Potter's readers' growthBooks
June 05, 2003, 09:58 AM
Thanks Christopher, for pointing us to this USA Today article, which discusses the Potter audience as it ages, and expectations for Phoenix among that population. Quotage:
Erin Meyers, 18, of Tyler, Texas, is excited, but she won't be wielding a wand on June 21. Having begun the series at 15, the incoming Emory University freshman relishes the way "it brings back childhood" and its desire for magical powers. Some of her friends think the Potter books are juvenile, but that's usually because they haven't read them, she says.
And thanks to Steve for pointing out that this list of the best Potter sites on the Web that accompanies the article: not only did we make the cut, but we're alongside some of our favorite sites - Mugglenet and the incredible Harry Potter Lexicon among them!

Turkey with Corn Bread Stuffing Recipe
When our family gathers for Christmas dinner, we'll carve a succulent turkey and savor the stuffing my mother taught me to make. Her version of the Southern favorite gets color and zip from the olives and chilies.
- 1 can (14-3/4 ounces) cream-style corn
- 2 cans (4 ounces each) chopped green chilies
- 1 can (4-1/2 ounces) sliced ripe olives, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 1/2 cup chopped green or sweet red pepper
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup egg substitute
- 1 package (14 ounces) crushed corn bread stuffing or 6 cups crumbled corn bread
- 1 turkey (8 to 10 pounds)
- Melted butter
- 2 chicken bouillon cubes
- 2 cups boiling water
- 1/4 to 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- In a large bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Add stuffing and toss lightly. Just before baking, loosely stuff the turkey. Place remaining stuffing in a greased 1-1/2-qt. baking dish; refrigerate.
- Skewer openings of turkey; tie drumsticks together. Place on a rack in a roasting pan. Brush with melted butter. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 2-3/4 to 3 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 180° for turkey and 165° for stuffing. Bake additional stuffing, covered, for 40-50 minutes or until heated through. When the turkey begins to brown, baste if needed; cover lightly with foil.
- For gravy, dissolve bouillon cube in water; set aside. Transfer turkey to a warm platter. Remove stuffing. Pour 1/4 cup pan drippings into a saucepan; whisk in flour until smooth. Gradually add bouillon mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened and bubbly, Serve with turkey and stuffing. Yield: 6-8 servings.

Doctors in Kenya's public hospitals on Wednesday October 3 spent their 17th day on strike to protest the dilapidated state of public health care. Emergency rooms in some of Kenya's public hospitals frequently don't have gloves or medicine, and power outages sometimes force doctors to use the light from their phones to complete a procedure.
Kenya's government fired 1,000 of the 2,000 striking doctors last week despite a shortfall of skilled medical practitioners. The government had promised to implement reforms in health care last year after doctors walked off the job and held protests.
At least two patients have died due to lack of treatment since the strike started, union officials say, but the government claims health facilities are coping well without the striking workers.
Attempts to hold talks this week with officials from the Ministry for Medical Services failed, prompting the doctors to flood social media with tell-all stories about deplorable conditions in public hospitals.
"Tuberculosis patients meant to be isolated yet they are sharing beds in the corridors meant for walking which have been converted to wards," Dr. Stanely Aruyaru said in a Twitter posting.
"It is a pity for someone to survive an accident but die in hospital because there is no blood, no Intensive Care Unit, no cervical collar, no splints and now no doctor," said Dr. Allan Kochi from the Nyeri provincial hospital in the Central Kenya. Dr. Nelly Bosire, the union representative, confirmed that the postings were authentic.
Dr. Fredrick Oluga, told The Associated Press how in mid-August he was called in to help remove the placenta from a woman that was stuck after she had just given birth. Oluga said that that when he arrived there was no electricity at the Vihiga district hospital in western Kenya and the standby generator did not have fuel. And the hospital did not have gynecological gloves for the procedure, he said.
"The patient was bleeding profusely and I had to act quickly so the nurse pointed light from her phone for me to conduct the procedure," Oluga said. He said twice this year he had to use light from a mobile phone and that such incidents are fairly common across the country.
Health care has been in a deplorable state in Kenya for a long time, but the country's poor — and many in Kenya — think the state of health care is the norm, said Bosire, the Nairobi branch chairwoman of the Kenya Medical Practitioners, Pharmacist and Dentist Union.
Bosire said middle class and rich Kenyans do not realize the problems in public health facilities until they are forced to seek treatment there when treatment in private hospitals becomes too expensive. Public hospitals charge far less than private hospitals, where politicians and top government officials seek treatment, Bosire said.
The two top health officials in the country, Medical Services Minister Anyang Nyongo, who fired the striking doctors and has refused to negotiate with the union, and the Minister for Public Health Beth Mugo, spent months in the U.S. for cancer treatment last year at the taxpayers' expense, Bosire said.
"We have specialists in this country to treat such cases, though inadequate in number. We just lack the facilities," she said.
Doctors want the government to spend more money on health care, including hiring more workers. International advocacy groups have repeatedly criticized Kenya for not investing enough in health care. The World Health Organization says Kenya and several other countries in Africa have not met a pledge made in 2000 to increase their health budgets to 15 percent of their national budgets by 2010. Kenya, East Africa's biggest economy has set aside 6 percent of the total budget. Rwanda, by comparison, allocates 18 percent of the total budget to health care, Bosire said.
Kenya has one doctor for every 6,250 people. The World Health Organization's recommended ratio is one doctor for 100 people.
Mwalimu Mati, an anti-corruption crusader, says the health care funding shortfall is caused in part by non-essential government spending, like international and domestic travel by government officials. Kenya recently inaugurated a newly refurbished parliament chamber where each of 350 seats cost $3,000.
Bosire said 32 babies less than a month old die in Kenya each day because of a lack of incubators to keep them warm.
"If I must stay on the street to get the infrastructure I need to save life," said Bosire, "then I'd rather be on the streets, rather than certifying deaths in hospitals."

A Texas judge has ordered DNA testing on a man who claims to be the brother of the late "The Jeffersons" star Sherman Hemsley.
Richard Thornton is challenging the validity of Hemsley's will, which names the actor's longtime manager, Flora Enchinton of El Paso, as sole beneficiary. Hemsley died of lung cancer July 24.
Judge Patricia Chew rescheduled the El Paso trial on Hemsley's estate to begin Oct. 31.
Thornton, of Philadelphia, sought the DNA testing and must provide results by Oct. 15. Hemsley was born in Philadelphia but had lived in El Paso for the past 20 years.
Court documents indicate Hemsley's estate is worth more than $50,000.

President Barack Obama's administration will create a national monument at a dramatic rock formation in southwestern Colorado on a site that was home to the ancestors of modern Pueblo Indians 1,000 years ago, officials confirmed on Wednesday September 19.
The move to preserve 4,726 acres of high desert at Chimney Rock, which holds spiritual significance for some tribes, will be announced September 21. The Denver Post first reported the decision, which was confirmed by Senator Michael Bennet's office.
The monument will be the third created by the Obama administration.
The Republican congressman who represents the area, Scott Tipton, sponsored a bill urging the designation that passed the House of Representatives in May. Bennet proposed a similar bill that never made it through the Senate following partisan squabbling.
"Making Chimney Rock a national monument will be an extraordinary boost for the region by preserving and protecting the site and driving tourism, which would draw more visitors and bring more dollars into the local, regional and state economies," Bennet said in a statement.
The 1906 Antiquities Act gives the president the power to designate certain historic federal properties as national monuments, to be preserved in perpetuity.
President Clinton's designation of Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument in southern Utah in 1996 angered many local residents and politicians who had hoped to tap the underground energy deposits there. When Obama took office, some Western conservatives were suspicious his administration would go on a national monument-creating spree.
But Obama has so far only designated two other national monuments: the-14,000 acre Fort Ord National Monument along the California Coast, and Fort Monroe, a former army base in Virginia that was a safe haven for slaves during the Civil War.
Some small business owners in southwest Colorado have said such a designation for Chimney Rock would give people more reasons to visit the region.

Caseworkers for Children's Protective Services are faced with the tough decision of taking a child out of a potentially dangerous home.
CPS says their goal is to do everything they can to keep children safe and with their families if they can. NewsChannel 11 gives you an inside look into CPS investigations at Lubbock homes.
Craig Campbell says his job as a CPS investigator can be tough.
"I was wondering if you could send an officer to assist," said Craig during an investigation into an alleged neglect case.
So tough, Lubbock police must get involved.
"She does not believe I'm with CPS. She says if you can get an officer here to verify that I'm with CPS then I've tried everything. I even showed her my driver license," Campbell explained to a police officer.
Campbell is working a case where a woman may be abusing and neglecting her children.
"Are there drugs involved?," asked NewsChannel 11's Cecelia Jones.
"We're not 100 % sure," Campbell said.
Campbell is trying to get this woman to take a drug test. It is the first step into his investigation. So far, she's not budging.
Campbell says he never sees a dull moment doing what he does every day. "There are stressful periods as well as periods that make you feel good about what you do," he said.
He says through the stress, opportunities also happen to help families in need, like this one. "She was released from the hospital two days ago," Campbell said about a newborn baby.
We will call her "Baby Jane," by now she is about two weeks old. Her mother tested positive for drugs when she gave birth to her. A cousin is now taking care of "Baby Jane" while CPS gets the mother help.
"In this case, mother was very open to assistance. The family unit was extremely strong and in this case we are going to try to get mother into some type of rehab with baby so she can work on parenting issues substance abuse issues," Campbell said.
Meanwhile, Campbell visits "Baby Jane" at her cousin's house. He comes to check on her and the woman. This day we visited, Campbell is prepared to take this woman to WIC, which stands for Women, Infants and Children. He is helping her get more formula for the baby.
Campbell also brought over a portable crib for the baby to sleep. It was given to them by Children's Advocacy Center of Lubbock from their Rainbow Room.
"When a child is placed with a relative or placed in foster care, a lot of times they come without the basic necessities whether it be diapers, clothing, shoes, school supplies, all of those things. This is a resource for our kids so we can come get them the basics of what they need," said Campbell.
Sometimes resources may provide more than just tangible items. "You're in an investigation stage," explained Campbell to another family we visited. In this case, the family is in desperate need of family counseling.
"We think with the concerns we've had, that keeping ya'll in therapeutic setting until things got stable would be beneficial to everyone," said Campbell to the family.
Campbell is trying to help a single mother who takes care of her four children. She is having trouble getting ends to meet financially. On top of that, she has a chronic illness that does not allow her to work. Campbell is trying to help lift some of the daily stress and reduce depression tenancies, which often results in a neglected child.
"The whole goal here is to help people. I think that's why we're all in it. You have a lot of cases where you come at the end of the day feeling you did some good for people out there," said Campbell.
For years, Lubbock CPS had 12 caseworkers who each had to juggle approximately 50 cases at a time. They say that was making it hard for them to do their jobs.
Some may argue the system is not flawless, however, two years ago, lawmakers provided the agency with more money to hire more caseworkers. They are working to improve the system right now.

Friday, the St. Louis Cardinals placed shortstop Rafael Furcal on the 15-Day Disabled List, due to an elbow injury he suffered in Thursday night's game against the Nationals.
Taking Furcal's roster spot: shortstop Pete Kozma, who's going right into the lineup and was slated to bat eighth against the Nationals Friday night. Kozma, the Cardinals' first-round draft pick five years ago, got into a few games and earned a World Series ring last year, but has spent this whole season, as he spent most of last season, with Triple-A Memphis. Kozma's not much of a hitter -- in six minor-league campaigns, he's got a .308 on-base average, with middling power -- but he's probably the Cardinals' best defensive shortstop.
Utilityman Daniel Descalso filled in for Furcal Thursday night, and figures to see at least some of the action in September, with the Cardinals battling for one of the National League's two available wild-card postseason berths.

Jacobson's Big Shot Extends FGCU's Winning Streak
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Kelsey Jacobson's 3-pointer with 1.2 seconds left capped a nine-point Florida Gulf Coast rally in the final four minutes to lift the Eagles to a 68-67 win over JU.
With a win over Campbell next week the Eagles will grab, at least, a share of the A-Sun Regular Season Championship. If the Eagles defeat the Camels and ETSU loses one of their final games, the Eagles will win the Regular Season Championship outright.
The Dolphins (16-11, 12-6 A-Sun) never trailed in the game until the final second, watching the Eagles (23-4, 16-3) finish the game on a 13-3 run.
Jacobson's (Barnesville, Minn.) heroic shot, her third 3-pointer of the game, gave her 10 points – one of our four Eagles in double figures. The FGCU rally ruined the Senior Day outing for the Regina Omoite, Virginia Gregoire, and DaVina Hamilton. The Dolphins had turned a two-point halftime lead into 13 less than five minutes into the second half – with Lynsey Paschal's putback capping a 13-2 run to give JU a 47-34 lead.
Despite trailing by 10 with nine minutes to go, the Eagles started slowly cutting into the lead, cutting the deficit to five before two straight baskets by JU pushed the lead back to nine, 64-55, with four minutes left in regulation.
The Eagles rally started with a layup by Adrianne McNally (Howell, Mich.) and after Ashanti Williams made 1-of-2 free throws for JU, Jacobson hit a 3-pointer to cut the deficit to five, 65-60, with 2:33 left in the game.
After the two teams traded baskets, McNally went to work – making a layup with 1:15 left to cut the deficit to three, 67-64.
Omiote came down and missed a 3-pointer and fouled on the rebound, with Brittany Brown (Flint, Mich.) hitting 1-of-2 to cut the JU lead to two, 67-65, with just 53 seconds left in the game.
Crystal Grable missed a jumper in the lane that could have iced the game and the Eagles worked the clock, using their final three timeouts, drawing up Jacobson's catch-and-shoot 3-pointer that gave Florida Gulf Coast its first lead of the day.
Jacksonville called a timeout, but the Dolphins inbound pass was picked off and the Eagles held on for the win.
The Dolphins hit 15-of-33 in the second half, but went ice cold in the final four minutes – hitting just 1-of-5 from the floor.
McNally scored a game-high 19 points and pulled nine rebounds to lead the Eagles. Courtney Chihil (Tipp City, Ohio) and Chelsea Lyles (Colorado Springs, Col.) each had 13 for FGCU.
The Dolphins got 12 from Courtney Jackson and 11 from Richardson off the bench.
The Eagles return to the hardwood on Thursday as they face Campbell in Buies Creek, N.C. Tipoff is at 7 p.m. (EST).

Homemade Chorizo
This sausage can be used in many different ways. You can shape it into links or patties, or crumble it. Trust me, you'll enjoy it—and your body will enjoy it much more than eating the traditional version, which is often made from some of the fattiest (not to mention least appealing) parts of the pig and can contain upwards of 28 grams of fat!
1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon old-fashioned oats
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons all-natural egg substitute
1/4 cup chili powder
2 teaspoons freshly minced garlic
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pound extra-lean ground pork
Combine the oats, vinegar and egg substitute in a medium bowl. Allow to stand for 3 minutes, or until the oats begin to soften. Add the chili powder, garlic, oregano and salt and stir until well combined. Using your clean hands or a fork, mix in the pork until well combined. Transfer the mixture to a resealable plastic container and refrigerate at least 24 hours before using.

Chorizo Nachos
I served these nachos at the reunion dinner I hosted for former "Biggest Loser" contestants before the Season 10 finale, and they were a huge hit. This dish is one of the favorite recipes among everyone in my test kitchen as well. These nachos would be very impressive to serve on Cinco de Mayo—what could be more perfect for snacking than cheesy nachos with homemade chorizo? Since you can make the chorizo in advance, you can whip up these nachos in no time.
Olive oil spray (propellant free)
2-1/2 ounces uncooked Homemade Chorizo (see recipe above)
1 ounce (about 11 chips) all-natural baked tortilla chips
1/3 cup rinsed and drained canned, no-salt-added black beans, heated
2 tablespoons all-natural salsa con queso, heated
1/4 cup well-drained fresh pico de gallo or fresh salsa
1 tablespoon finely chopped whole scallions
Place a small nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, lightly mist the pan with spray and add the chorizo. Cook, breaking it into large chunks, for 1 to 2 minutes, or until no longer pink.
Arrange the chips on a dinner plate. Top them evenly with the beans, then the chorizo. Drizzle the salsa con queso evenly over top. Top them with the pico de gallo and scallions and serve immediately.
