By Wainwright Jeffers - bio | email ALBANY, GA (WALB) – A state review of test score data has found that 20 percent of Georgia elementary and middle schools had possible cheating on standardized tests last year.
It shows an unusually high number of erasures on exams, eight schools on the state's severe list are in Dougherty County.
State school board members Thursday called for investigations into Georgia schools that face accusations of tampering with student answers on last spring's Criterion-Referenced Competency tests.
"The state board supports the Governor's Office of Student Achievement is in the process of investigating now," said Dr. Elizabeth Ragsdale, State Board Of Education.
A report from the Governor's Office of Student Achievement looked at the every CRCT taken in Georgia last spring for grades one to 8, about three million exams.
"All we know is that there has been an unusually large number of erasures, I think everyone is concerned that the source of these erasures be determined," said Ragsdale.
Eight schools are termed severe concern in Dougherty County, meaning 25 percent or more of the classrooms in those schools had a high rate of changed answers.
"An this point no one is charging anyone of wrongdoing" said Ragsdale, "I'm concerned that we don't have a rush to judgement".
As the probe into the high number of changed answers continues, Ragsdale says she hopes it doesn't become a distraction.
The Governor's Office of Student Achievement is asking the state to put monitors in those schools with a high number of answer changes for testing this spring.

How David Cameron Could Reshape Europe
Fraser Nelson, The Spectator
The Associated Press
If David Cameron were to divide Europe up, he'd make some crude distinctions. There would be the basket cases, like Italy, Spain, Greece, France — examples, by and large, of how countries should not be run. Then there'd be the former Soviet bloc, sceptical about Brussels because they recently escaped a remote, controlling bureaucracy and don't want to repeat the experience. Then come the good guys, the people with whom he intends to reshape the continent: the Germans, the Dutch and the Scandis. This is the group that the Prime Minister has started referring to as his 'Northern Alliance'.

ATLANTA (AP) — Fans of the hit cable television show "The Walking Dead" congregated in downtown Atlanta this weekend for a convention focused on the AMC series.
The convention, named "Walker Stalker Con," was expected to draw about 10,000 people to the Atlanta Convention Center over the weekend.
Eric Nordhoff and James Frazier, also known as the "Walker Stalkers," created the convention after a road trip they made last fall from Nashville, Tenn., to Georgia to see the show being filmed.
Fans were treated to sessions with makeup artists to look like zombies during the convention, and the event featured appearances by some of the actors from the show.

Counterintuitive Headline of the Day
- Joshua M Brown
- February 19th, 2010
"Bleak Economy Pushing Health Insurers to Raise Rates, Analysts Say"
That gem of a headline appeared on the New York Times last night. Apparently, the dysfunctional health insurance industry didn't get the memo…
This morning we got the first drop in core CPI since 1982. Everything costs less than what it did last year, from clothing to groceries.
As it should in light of the fact that 18 out of 100 people are underemployed.
According to the article, WellPoint ($WLP) is looking to raise certain types of plans by 39%. Seriously.
These inherently evil companies need to cut their own costs (like salaries), not raise the price on consumers who were already struggling to pay health insurance premiums in boom times.
I can only hope that interstate competition is opened up soon; if these pigs truly want a "free market", let 'em fight it out like the rest of us. That's the only way we'll ever get rational pricing.

With Larry English done for the season and Shaun Phillips in a walking boot how comfortable are we with the current depth at OLB? If Phillips can't go this week that means Barnes moves into a starting role and we have 1 backup for both OLB positions, UDFA Darryl Gamble. I think Bront Bird is the only LB on the practice squad and I think he is more of an ILB than a pass rusher.
Does the team need to go out and pick someone up to add depth at the position? We've only managed to generate 10 sacks to date which is 28th in the NFL. It appears even prior to the injuries the team was having problems getting to the QB (unless the play calling has just been that conservative).
I went out and looked at possible FAs at OLB and list was not very long or distinguished. Below are some names of potential OLB free agents:
Tully Banta-Cain, DE/OLB, Patriots. Age: 31
Jyles Tucker, DE/OLB, Chargers. Age: 27.
Brandon Lang, DE/OLB, Chargers. Age: 25
Keith Bulluck, OLB, Giants. Age: 34
Pisa Tinoisamoa, OLB, Bears. Age: 30
Do you think the team makes a move? If so who do you think they would target if not one of the names mentioned above? Does Diggs possibly make the move to OLB?
I hope we're able to add some depth and get the pass rush back on track.

US Fighter Jets Escort Plane With Cargo From Yemen To JFK
U.S. officials say two military fighter jets are escorting a commercial airliner from the Canadian border to New York City. The plane is carrying cargo from Yemen.
The officials said there is no known threat associated with the plane, but it was being escorted to John F. Kennedy International Airport as a cautionary move. It was not clear if the plane had landed yet.
Authorities on Friday were investigating whether suspicious packages shipped aboard cargo planes from Yemen to the U.S. werepart of a terrorist plot.
An investigation was launched after a suspicious package was discovered during a routine screening on a cargo plane in the United Kingdom which later prompted searches of several planes as well as a UPS truck in Downtown Brooklyn Friday.
U.K. officials identified the device as a toner cartridge on the plane that had been manipulated and found wires attached to it and white powder. Tests on the device came back negative for explosives, according to a law enforcement official who also spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the investigation.
Concerns about the possibility of similar and potentially dangerous devices shipped elsewhere prompted officials to check other cargo planes headed to the U.S. including to airports in Newark and Philadelphia.
A series of suspicious UPS packages were in question - including one inside a delivery truck parked outside MetroTech in downtown Brooklyn. Authorities have since given the all-clear on that situation, PIX News has learned.
A cargo plane that was grounded at Newark Airport earlier was also given the all-clear.
At one point, authorities shut down the Manhattan Bridge as a precaution. It has since been reopened.
All the packages believed to be suspicious came from Yemen and were being sent via UPS, authorities said.
Yemen is the home of the al-Qaida branch that claimed responsibility for an attempted bombing of a U.S.-bound airliner on Christmas.Copyright © 2014, Chicago Tribune

Christmas Scriptures
The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who lived in a land of deep darkness on them light has shined. You have multiplied the nation, you have increased its joy; they rejoice before you as with joy at the harvest, as people exult when dividing plunder. For the yoke of their burden, and the bar across their shoulders, the rod of their oppressor, you have broken as on the day of Midian. For all the boots of the tramping warriors and all the garments rolled in blood shall be burned as fuel for the fire. For a child has been born for us, a son given to us; authority rests upon his shoulders; and he is named Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. His authority shall grow continually, and there shall be endless peace for the throne of David and his kingdom. He will establish and uphold it with justice and with righteousness from this time onward and forevermore. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will do this. -- (Isaiah 9:2-7)
In those days a decree went out from Emperor Augustus that all the world should be registered. This was the first registration and was taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria. All went to their own towns to be registered. Joseph also went from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to the city of David called Bethlehem, because he was descended from the house and family of David. He went to be registered with Mary, to whom he was engaged and who was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for her to deliver her child. And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in bands of cloth, and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.
In that region there were shepherds living in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. Then an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid; for see--I am bringing you good news of great joy for all the people: to you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign for you: you will find a child wrapped in bands of cloth and lying in a manger." And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God and saying, "Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace among those whom he favors!" When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, "Let us go now to Bethlehem and see this thing that has taken place, which the Lord has made known to us." So they went with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the child lying in the manger. When they saw this, they made known what had been told them about this child; and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds told them. But Mary treasured all these words and pondered them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them. -- (Luke 2:1-20)
Now the birth of Jesus the Messiah took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been engaged to Joseph, but before they lived together, she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit. Her husband Joseph, being a righteous man and unwilling to expose her to public disgrace, planned to dismiss her quietly. But just when he had resolved to do this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, for the child conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will bear a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins." All this took place to fulfill what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet:
"Look, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall name him Emmanuel," which means, "God is with us." When Joseph awoke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him; he took her as his wife, but had no marital relations with her until she had borne a son; and he named him Jesus.
In the time of King Herod, after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, asking, "Where is the child who has been born king of the Jews? For we observed his star at its rising, and have come to pay him homage." When King Herod heard this, he was frightened, and all Jerusalem with him; and calling together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Messiah was to be born. They told him, "In Bethlehem of Judea; for so it has been written by the prophet:
'And you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for from you shall come a ruler who is to shepherd my people Israel.'"
Then Herod secretly called for the wise men and learned from them the exact time when the star had appeared. Then he sent them to Bethlehem, saying, "Go and search diligently for the child; and when you have found him, bring me word so that I may also go and pay him homage." When they had heard the king, they set out; and there, ahead of them, went the star that they had seen at its rising, until it stopped over the place where the child was. When they saw that the star had stopped, they were overwhelmed with joy. On entering the house, they saw the child with Mary his mother; and they knelt down and paid him homage. Then, opening their treasure chests, they offered him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. And having been warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they left for their own country by another road.
Now after they had left, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, "Get up, take the child and his mother, and flee to Egypt, and remain there until I tell you; for Herod is about to search for the child, to destroy him." Then Joseph got up, took the child and his mother by night, and went to Egypt, and remained there until the death of Herod. This was to fulfill what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet, "Out of Egypt I have called my son."
When Herod saw that he had been tricked by the wise men, he was infuriated, and he sent and killed all the children in and around Bethlehem who were two years old or under, according to the time that he had learned from the wise men. Then was fulfilled what had been spoken through the prophet Jeremiah:
"A voice was heard in Ramah, wailing and loud lamentation, Rachel weeping for her children; she refused to be consoled, because they are no more." -- (Matthew 1:18 to 2:18)
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God; all things were made through him, and without him was not anything made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. He came for testimony, to bear witness to the light, that all might believe through him. He was not the light, but came to bear witness to the light.
The true light that enlightens every man was coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world knew him not. He came to his own home, and his own people received him not. But to all who received him, who believed in his name, he gave power to become children of God; who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.
And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father. (John bore witness to him, and cried, "This was he of whom I said, 'He who comes after me ranks before me, for he was before me.'") And from his fulness have we all received, grace upon grace. For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. No one has ever seen God; the only Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he has made him known. -- (John 1:1-18)

Roasted or sautéed, pickled or pureed, carrots are great no matter what color they are. Here is Chef Susan Feniger's recipe for Moroccan carrot salad.
Moroccan Carrot Salad with Harissa Vinaigrette
Serves 4 to 6
3 jumbo carrots, peeled and julienned (by hand or mandolin), approximately 6 cups
1 cup black raisins
2 cups whole Italian parsley leaves, washed and dried
2 Tablespoons harissa chile paste
1/3 cup lemon juice (approximately 2 to 3 lemons)
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
1½ cups feta cheese, crumbled (we prefer the softer Bulgarian or French styles)
½ teaspoon kosher salt
In a medium mixing bowl place the carrot strips, raisins, parsley leaves, and feta cheese.
Toss gently to combine and set aside.
Separately, whisk together the harissa, lemon juice, olive oil, and salt until well incorporated.
Pour the harissa dressing over the top of the carrot mixture and stir well once more to combine and evenly coat all of the ingredients.
Serve immediately.

Eds. Note: From Harrison. Direct your ire toward him, not my inbox.
The bracket is set.
Some teams made it, while most teams are on the outside looking in. What is uncertain at this point is who is going to win the magical hardware on Memorial Monday. Unlike most years with a couple really dominant teams serving as the favorites, more than ever this season the tournament is wide open. Let's take a look at the field and separate those contenders from the pretenders once again as to who can win the title.

In religion and philosophy, the rebirth of the soul in one or more successive existences, which may be human, animal, or, in some instances, vegetable, is called reincarnation. It is also called transmigration, or metempsychosis. Belief in reincarnation is most characteristic of Asian religions and philosophies. It also appears in the religious and philosophical thought of many primitive religions, in some ancient Middle Eastern religions, Manichaeism (founded in Persia in the 3rd century AD by Mani), and Gnosticism (prominent in the Greco-Roman world in the 2nd century AD), as well as in such modern religious movements as theosophy.

I have to say that I think the MDC does a pretty darn good job with the limited resources they have. I hunted several of the quail emphasis areas this year and didn't see a single covey. However the properties certainly looked awesome and the management for birds was very obvious. I did find coveys on other MDC properties that weren't designated emphasis areas and I thought the properties there looked pretty good as well. The difference between the two success wise may have been due to hunting pressure.
How Do Predators Impact Quail Populations?
Department quail biologist Beth Emmerich shared with me some facts about predators and quail: "The subject of predators is frequent in the discussion of any game bird, and quail are no different. Quail are very low on the food chain and are subject to predation from various critters including bobcats, coyotes, foxes, raccoons, opossums, hawks, owls and snakes, just to name a few. Predation is a fact for all small-game species, which have adapted to high mortality through high reproductive output. Intensive predator removal studies have been conducted on large quail plantations in the Southeast. Furbearer species are classified as vermin there and may be trapped year-round. Trapping is very time- and labor-intensive, and different species must be targeted at different times of the year. In addition, a reduction in one type of predator often results in increases in another type of predator. For example, removing larger mammalian predators would lead to an increase in the smaller mammalian predators (reducing coyotes may lead to an increase in nest predators, such as raccoons, opossums or skunks). One study concluded that thinning out predators increased the cotton rat population so much that they destroyed more quail nests that predators ever did.
"Large-scale predator removal, say in an entire township or county, is impractical and cost prohibitive. On the other hand, predator removal at the farm level is more feasible. A study in North Carolina concluded that the quail increases they saw were not worth the cost of trapping. They trapped every year for three years and focused their effort on spring, when pelts have no value. They found they had more quail when they planted field borders on the study area than they did with just trapping. The use of trapping as a management tool, within the bounds of the law, is a personal decision for each landowner. Again, without suitable habitat, birds are indeed more susceptible to predators."
To support what Beth said, my son and I recently quail hunted with some friends in Osage County. We found at least four coveys and maybe five. This many coveys and yet a local trapper had taken three coyotes, three bobcats and two red foxes off this farm in the last two weeks. This is on a 120-acre farm. What made it possible for this many coveys to thrive in spite of high predator numbers is the habitat management our friend is doing on his property. He burns some of the farm each year, he has converted all his fescue to native grasses and wildflowers and the timber has been managed to remove cedars and thin the canopy. This has caused a dramatic increase in plant diversity AND quail numbers on the farm.
The evidence does not support blaming low quail numbers on predators, when proper habitat management can improve quail number so dramatically.
Again Jeff, I would advise
Again Jeff, I would advise you to contact the local conservation area manager if you have questions about how a Department area is managed or contact the nearest Department Regional Office.
Without knowing what area or where on the area, I cannot answer your question.
Then what is the management
Then what is the management goal with mowed fescue on MDC lands?
Just as the Department
Just as the Department manages certain areas for waterfowl, we also manage certain Department areas for quail and rabbits. A list of those areas can be found at http://mdc.mo.gov/hunting-trap
Due to budget and staff constraints we cannot manage all of our lands for quail and most are managed for multiple uses. Since 93% of Missouri is privately owned, we put a lot of stock in promoting habitat management on private land.
I would advise you to contact the local conservation area manager if you have questions about how a Department area is managed or contact the nearest Department Regional Office.
I am sick of hearing about
I am sick of hearing about all these habitat restoration techniques and then seeing NONE OF THEM ON MDC LANDS! Fescue everywhere and NO edge feathering. Matter of fact most lands are mowed next to stands of woods! What are you people doing?! You DO NOT PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH! Last year had 3 places with some birds on them. After your "land management" this past year, there are no quail on any of these 3 areas. Your idiot employees tore up what little quail cover there was, but the fescue fields on these areas are still untouched!
Main point of this article?
Main point of this article? Habitat restoration is what helps quail thrive the best. Agreed. Now it is time for MDC to actually provide this habitat for quail. As a hunter who frequents MDC managed lands, I rarely see quail, or habitat that is needed to support quail. Mainly just big, overgrown fescue fields. It is too bad the quail don't bring in the revenue that deer do, or else MDC would have quail as priority #1.

Bengals place-kicker Mike Nugent entered training camp on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list with a hamstring. Unlike the Reserve/PUP, the Active/PUP allows players to return to practice without being forced to miss the first six weeks of the regular season.
And Mike Nugent did just that.
During Cincinnati's first practice inside Paul Brown Stadium, the team's franchise holder for most points scored in a single-season returned on Thursday, leaving defensive tackle Pat Sims (currently on Active/PUP) and cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick (NFI) as the only players out.

I just wanted to put this out there for those who may not be aware, or for those who may be more aware than I and can comment on this supposed phenomenon.
The Ancient Bison? via www.chelseafc.com
I have a few friends from western Africa (Ghana and Nigeria predominantly) that share an interested in EPL football. One of the many discussions we've had centered on something they referred to as "African age." Allegedly, as a way of increasing a player's value, clubs, families, agents, and/or the players themselves forge legal documents in order to misrepresent the player's age. A younger player is worth more in transfer value and likely gets a longer late-career contract than they would otherwise. Essentially each of the aforementioned parties benefits all-around from a pretended younger age.
Now, my conversation partners noted that this was a result of many African nations having less than strict and secure legal systems, but as this was changing, age misrepresentation had become less prominent. However, one of the Ghanaian friends insisted that Essien was among the perpetrators of this type of incident, and that our Blue Bison was actually 2-3 years older than our records state. It's hard to blame a young man for taking the advice of his family/representation, and I can imagine the idea of increasing one's own value would be a rather seductive one.
Does anyone have any further information regarding this phenomenon, and/or knowledge about the age status of other African-born players we currently employ or are looking at?

The decision came as Israeli leaders were heading to Europe on the eve of International Holocaust Remembrance Day. The film Lipstikka
was created by Israeli actor and director Jonathan Sagall to portray
his mother's experience in the Holocaust. Sagall, who starred in the
popular 1978 Israeli film Eskimo Limon, received funding for
the project five years ago and later decided to transport his mother's
tale to Ramallah, where instead of the Nazis, two girls struggle
against the Israeli occupation. The controversial treatment first came to light after Israeli columnist Yair Lapid wrote an article in last Friday's Yediot Aharonot in which he quoted a passage from a brochure he had received, advertising Lipstikka: "It
took a lot to convince the Israel Film Fund that the occupation is
worse than Israel has ever admitted to and that it is possible to
compare the occupation to the Holocaust."
Israel Radio
reported Tuesday that the decision to suspend funding came following a
direct request from Minister of Culture and Sports Limor Livnat. The
IFF has also denied any connection to the brochure and its wording. The
IFF further said that when it had approved the funding, the script it
had received had not presented the same comparisons as those described
in the brochure.
An article from last year on Variety.com described the movie as
"a psychological thriller about the lifelong emotional and sexual bond
between two Palestinian women."

The most common type of food allergy in adults is oral symptoms triggered by fruits and vegetables. This type of allergic reaction is called either Pollen Food Syndrome (PFS) or Oral Allergy Syndrome (OAS), and is caused by a sensitization to foods related to allergenic pollens. OAS is also sometimes referred to as a "class 2 food allergy."
If you have a runny nose during pollen season, you are more likely to develop OAS as an adult. Virtually all adults with OAS have a history of allergic rhinitis (runny nose) due to pollen allergies.
Symptoms of OAS may include:
- Itching or tingling of the mouth, tongue or lips
- Swelling of the mouth, tongue, and/or throat (angioedema)
- Increased eczema symptoms in patients with eczema
- Rarely: vomiting, stomach cramps, or diarrhea
- Very rarely: anaphylaxis
Often, people with OAS will react to certain raw fruits or vegetables but will be able to tolerate them when well-cooked. For example, your mouth may itch after eating a raw apple, but you will be able to eat applesauce. This is because some of the proteins that cause pollen-related reactions break down when heated.
Diagnosis of OAS relies on a history of reactions and allergy testing. Unlike other types of food allergy, a double-blind, placebo-controlled food challenge is often not helpful in diagnosing OAS. Because reactions vary depending on the freshness of the food, and the direct contact with the skin of the mouth and tongue, results may not be accurate. For example, a capsule of prepared apple may not cause a reaction even if you have a reaction to eating a raw apple.
Your doctor will ask about your history of immediate reactions after eating certain fruits or vegetables. She will also ask about your history of seasonal allergies, hay fever, or runny nose. To identify the specific pollens and foods that are causing your symptoms, your doctor may order skin-prick testing or RAST blood testing.
OAS is caused by a cross-reactivity between an inhaled pollen allergen and the proteins found in certain fruits and vegetables. While the pollen plant and the foods are not biologically related, the structures of their proteins are so similar that the body reacts to both.
The most common type of OAS in Northern Europe is birch pollen allergy. One study found that 70% of people with a birch pollen allergy also have some sort of OAS. Because birch pollen allergy is so common, it is the most widely studied of all OAS associations. People sensitized to birch pollen may have OAS symptoms when they eat the following foods (in order of frequency):
- Apple (80%)
- Hazelnut (59%)
- Nectarine/peach (51%)
- Kiwi (48%)
- Walnut (41%)
- Carrot (35%)
- Apricot (33%)
- Cherry (32%)
- Pear (32%)
- Almond (32%)
- Peanut (24%)
- Plum (24%)
- Tomato (21%)
- Potato (19%)
- Celery (16%)
- Soybean (14%)
Grass pollen allergies are associated with sensitivities to:
- Melon
- Tomato
- Orange
- Cherry
Ragweed allergies are associated with sensitivities to:
Mugwort allergies are associated with sensitivities to:
- Celery
- Carrot
- Spices
- Melon
- Apple
- Hazelnut
- Chestnut
Treatment and Management
As with most food allergies, the main method of managing OAS is avoiding trigger foods. Some people may only need to avoid their triggers in their raw form.
You may find that your OAS symptoms are worse when pollen counts are high. During pollen season, you may need to avoid foods that you can tolerate at other times of the year. Talk to your doctor about taking antihistamines or other allergy medication to help control your allergic rhinitis symptoms.
There have been some studies of birch pollen and apple allergies that have found that people who receive immunotherapy for birch pollen allergy are later able to tolerate raw apples. These studies were small, however, and there have not been studies done on other specific pollen-food interactions in immunotherapy.
Most adults with OAS do not need to carry an epinephrine auto-injector (commonly referred to by the brand name Epi-Pen). However, some people do have reactions that are severe enough, or have the potential to be severe enough, that they should be prescribed an auto-injector. Talk to your doctor about the type and severity of your reactions to your trigger foods.

It's summer! Our office is swarming with interns! So when a press release plopped in the old inbox announcing a preview tasting of Chick-fil-A's new Spicy Chicken Sandwich, we perused the credentials of our new workers. Hark! Victoria Guida has the cred—she is currently a student at the University of Missouri where she is perusing a double major in journalism and political science. Oh, and a minor in psychology. She will be an excellent food writer. Here is her first ever report.
After receiving an internship at D Magazine, I was ready for anything. I was a little surprised, though, when my boss assigned me an event before I'd even stepped into the building.
My assignment: cover an event promoting the new Chick-fil-A Spicy Chicken Sandwich. An unusual task, to be sure, but why not?
The day after my orientation, I headed to the Richards Group office building to taste the sandwich that would officially hit restaurants on June 7. (As you well know, the Richards Group is the advertising agency that came up with the slogan "Eat Mor Chikin" and has since milked the idea for all it's worth.)
Jump with her.
As I stepped off the elevator, I was immediately greeted by a large cow with the sign "Weer fired up over spicee chikin" around its neck and the sound of loud jazz music. People to my left were taking pictures with another cow.
I was handed a large red bag of goodies, and yes, I am now the proud owner of a little stuffed cow and a cow Pez dispenser.
About 70 or 80 people filled the large room. They were mostly sales and marketing people from Chick-fil-A and media people. The jazz music was live—the band included a bass, a sax, and a piano. Everyone schmoozed for a while, until Stan Richards, founder of Richards Group, started speaking on a stairwell that ascended over the room.
Stan and Chick-fil-A corporate PR guy Don Perry spoke about the 16-year partnership between the Richards Group and Chick-fil-A and how pleased they all were to be there.
Although this was nice to hear, there was really just one thing we were all waiting on: the new sandwiches. I don't handle spicy food as well as some people, but I would not be cowed into missing this opportunity. I opened up the package—eager since I hadn't eaten yet that day—and bit into the sandwich.
Classic Chick-fil-A chicken taste, spicy aftertaste. And it was spicy—enough that a woman walking by me blinked hard and mouthed "wow" after biting into it, but not enough for me to need more than one glass of lemonade.
In the interest of full disclosure, I don't like pickles, so I removed the only ingredient of the sandwich other than chicken and bread. I am told that a deluxe version with lettuce, tomato, and Pepper Jack cheese will also be offered on the menu when the sandwich comes out.
Don Perry proudly told me that this sandwich is made with entirely new equipment to keep the spicy seasoning for the spicy chicken separate from the regular chicken—a multi-million dollar investment. He would not tell me the recipe, except to describe it as a "blend of firey peppers and seasoning."
Ultimately, I had fun and everyone partied until the cows went home.
In case you were wondering:
• Cost: $2.99 (deluxe version will be $3.59)
• Calories: 450 (deluxe version is 540)
8 comments on "New Chick-fil-A Spicy Chicken Sandwich is Almost Ready to Roll"
The peach shake is no. 1 and only available for a limited time (during the chicken season).
I tried this thing today at the Las Colinas location. No heat at all; the chicken I had tasted (and looked )burnt. Not sure if the oil was too hot, someone forgot to take it out of the pressure cooker, or what the heck happened. Perhaps all the flavor got cooked right off. Can't say I'm in any hurry to try it again.
This will go over as big as the CueCat
FWIW, wife and I had ours at the Hillcrest location across from SMU yesterday, and it was great. The spiciness builds rather than assaults, and is a nice changeup.
CueCat? Please…
They've had these out in CA for almost 2 years I think. I guess there's enough popularity to roll them out.
And I wish they would find a way to bring back the "old" equipment to make their french fries. The new fryers don't make the fries crispy enough, and they get wilted and cardboard-y about halfway through your meal, if you don't eat them fast enough.
No complaints about the Chicken Bisquit, though!
Pingback: LeggoMyCraigo.com » Blog Archive » Review: Chick-fil-a Spicy Chicken Sandwich
Sammy, I agree, white wilty fries suck. So order your fries "extra crispy" and they'll give 'em an extra dunk in the oil. They'll be CRISPY then.

Sure this will be an exercise in futility, and we are more likely to not have a single one of these guys on the the roster come game one, but at least it gives us something to read that has more relevance than the aforementioned mocks and win predictions.
Kris Durham, WR, Georgia
"This is kid is faster than people think," a league source told National Football Post. "He runs good routes. He's a great possession receiver and you can't teach size. I think he'll do well if he's given the right opportunity."
The 6-foot-5, 215-pounder caught 32 passes for 659 yards and three touchdowns last season for the Bulldogs, playing opposite star wide receiver A.J. Green.
He caught four passes for 112 yards and a touchdown against Vanderbilt, five passes for 101 yards against Arkansas and three receptions for 90 yards against Georgia Tech, including a career-long 66-yard catch.
Durham missed the 2009 season with a torn labrum in his left shoulder.
Overlooked and somewhat forgotten about in Athens, Kris Durham has spent the better part of his career playing in the shadow of arguably the best WR in the country in AJ Green. Earlier this season when Green was suspended due to a jersey sale violation, Durham had a chance to show the SEC and the scouts just what he could do when given the opportunity. He proved to talent evaluators that not only does he have the talent to play at the next level but that he may only just be beginning to tap into his true potential.
How he looked coming out of high school (only posted to show he is smart and is faster than some people claim)
Ht: 6'5"
Wt: 186 lbs
40: 4.54 secs
Bench Max: 265
Squat Max: 385
Vertical: 31 inches
Anthony Allen, RB/FB, Georgia Tech
Height & Weight: 6-0 - 229 lbs.
NFL Combine Results
40-Yard Dash 4.59
Bench press 24
Vertical jump 41.5
Three-cone drill 6.79
20-yard shuttle 4.06
Allen is a bruising back who can run through just about anybody. He does not have break away speed, but that is not the type of rusher he will be in the NFL. Allen is the type of player who can handle the load week in and week out and he is one of the better power backs in this class.
This is a big, versatile back with power. Allen is an ideal third down player because he can block and he catches well. He also is being considered as a fullback. He does not have top speed.
Strengths: Allen has a thick build for the position and is a good athlete with a short burst of acceleration through the hole as an inside runner. Offers excellent vision, body lean and balance as a power runner. Is a strong, physical finisher who breaks tackles. Does a decent job as a lead blocker on quarterback scrambles and in pass protection. Has strong receiving skills and is durable. Performed well at the Scouting Combine and his pro day, boosting his stock and raising
Weaknesses: Played in a triple-option offense in college, so his role does not translate to either the running back or fullback position. Lacks breakaway speed and big-play ability as a runner and receiver. His ball security is questionable.
Bottom line: Allen started for two years at Georgia Tech after transferring from Louisville. He has excellent inside running skills to become either a short-yardage/goal-line back or a fullback in a West Coast offense. His receiving skills add some value to a player who should be a late-round pick.
Deunta Williams, S, North Carolina
2/8 Update: After finishing off his senior season strong, Williams broke his left leg during North Carolina's Music City Bowl victory over Tennessee. While Williams' strong point is his instincts and intelligence, how well he recovers prior to the draft will play a huge role in his draft stock. If he can stay healthy, Williams could be a second round draft pick. If not, he could slip all the way down to the third day of the draft.
Height: 6-2
Weight: 215
Deunta Williams was one of those North Carolina players who's Senior season was killed by the NCAA's suspension, as he was suspended for 4 games, and the whole teams season was disjointed, adversely affecting him. Williams came into the year as an elite safety prospect with 12 Interceptions in his first 3 years, as he has always displayed great instincts and ball skills. He is solid in both man and zone coverage, as he has excellent range, good closing speed, and reads and diagnoses plays very quickly. While Williams is a thumper, and loves to deliver the big hit, he needs to improve in run support. He is almost always in the correct position, but he doesn't break down well in the open field, and doesn't have the strength to make many 1-on-1 tackles. He is also very aggressive, and often too aggressive as he will sometimes get caught with his hand in the cookie jar going for the big play. He just needs to polish up his game, and if he can do that, and add some muscle he will be a steal, and a become a much better player than people think. He could go anywhere from late round 2, to early in the 4th.
Impressive size/athleticism combination. A good all-around athlete; came to UNC as a receiver but switched to safety in the fall of his freshman year and was immediately named a starter. A four-year starter with 46 career starts under his belt. Gives a solid effort in run support. Reliable tackler. Good ball skills (12 career interceptions). Weaknesses: Suspended for the first four games of 2010 season for his involvement in North Carolina's academic scandal. Suffered a broken leg in final collegiate game. Rarely asked to line up in man coverage and does not look fluid when doing so. Will struggle when lined up against receivers and athletic tight ends at the next level. Comments: Williams is one of the more physically gifted safeties in this year's class, however his injury in the Motor City Bowl significantly hurts his stock as teams will not be able to see him workout at full strength prior to the draft. He primarily lined up at free safety at North Carolina, but may be better suited to play strong safety in the pros. His experience and production throughout his career makes him a fairly safe pick. He's a safe bet to develop into a reliable backup, but also has the upside of a potential future starter.
Keith Williams, OG, Nebraska
At 6-5 and 310 pounds, Williams has the size and strength to play in the NFL. He is not the quickest offensive lineman around, but he is strong enough to push away most interior lineman. Unfortunately for Williams, he is probably not even the best guard on Nebraska. Ricky Henry has taken away some of the attention from him and now Williams has to separate himself during pre-draft workouts if he hopes to be higher than a sixth or seventh round selection.
A tough, nasty Nebraska offensive lineman who can create movement in the run game. Plays a bit too straight-legged in the pass game, but has snap through the hips off the football and should be able to make a roster as a rookie and at worst provide some depth inside.
Mike Mohamed, ILB, California
Mohamed may lack some of the physical skills of some other inside linebackers, but he is a smart player and has plenty of size and quickness. Few can match his instincts and Mohamed will always be around the ball no matter what level he is playing at...and he will get a good chance to play at the next level.
Strengths: Productive three-year starter who also played as a freshman. Good overall size. Has the height to match up well with tight ends in coverage. A smart football player; rarely caught out of position. Patient; waits for plays to develop before committing to an angle.
Weaknesses: Athleticism is nothing special. Once a lineman locks onto him he struggles to shed blocks. Won't be productive at getting into the backfield consistently.
Comments: Mohamed doesn't do anything great, but he also has very few glaring flaws. Given his inability to consistently get into the backfield I think he's better suited to play inside in a 4-3 scheme. He just lacks the athleticism to be consistently productive in a 3-4 scheme. He's a solid player but the upside is limited. He'll probably never be a Pro Bowl linebacker, but should definitely be a productive backup and special teams contributor and may sneak into a starting lineup down the road.
Mohamed was a productive college player in part because of good instincts. He isn't the fastest or biggest hitter, but he is around the ball a lot. He is a reliable player with top intangibles. Mohamed is suited best for a defense that protects the linebackers.
Well I have at least occupied my time for a while here, football ADD satisfied, I hope you enjoyed the info / read.

The ting of the bats will once again become a familiar sound on campus starting Feb. 11 as the JU softball team releases its 2011 schedule.
The first two weekends will be tough for the Dolphins as they host two home tournaments with the likes of Kansas, North Carolina and Jacksonville State. Also in the middle of the two tournaments is a non-conference game against Florida on Feb. 16 at the JU Softball Complex.
"We are looking forward to the season," said JU head coach Amanda Lehotak. "(The) team is really focused and they are anxious to start the season. As a program, we feel we underachieved last year and we are ready to make up for it."
The Dolphins begin their first home tournament on Feb. 11 against Buffalo and Bethune-Cookman before wrapping the weekend against North Carolina and Kansas the next day.
After playing the Gators, JU will kick off its second home tournament on Feb. 18 against Central Michigan and Jacksonville State. They will also take on Florida A&M during the three-day schedule.
Following a home doubleheader with South Dakota State (Feb. 22), the Dolphins hit the road for three straight tournaments. There schedule will begin with the FAU Tournament (Feb. 25-27) against UCONN, Pittsburgh, Maryland and the host Owls.
JU heads to Clearwater, Fla. for the first of two tournaments starting March 4 to play St. Joseph's, Maine, Radford, Villanova and Toledo in the USF/Under Armour Tournament. The Dolphins will play Texas A&M (March 17) in Clearwater for a game before starting the USF The Game Tournament the next day against Texas Tech, Colorado State, Dartmouth, Winthrop and Boston.
Other non-conference games include hosting Delaware State (March 10) and Florida State (April 5) along with trips to Georgia Southern (March 29), Florida A&M (April 13) and Bethune-Cookman (April 27).
The Dolphins' 20-game A-Sun schedule starts with consecutive home doubleheaders against Mercer (March 25) and Kennesaw State (March 26).
JU will spend the next half of the conference schedule on the road with trips to ETSU (April 1), USC Upstate (April 2), Lipscomb (April 8) and Belmont (April 9).
They will host Campbell at the JU Softball Complex on April 16 before taking on FGCU two days later at home.
The Dolphins host cross-town rival UNF for another installment of the SunTrust River City Rumble on May 4. JU wraps the regular season up against Stetson on May 6 for Senior Night at the JU Softball Complex.
The 2011 A-Sun Softball Championship will have a new home as it moves to USC Upstate in Spartanburg, S.C. starting on May 12.
In 2010, JU recorded the second highest win total in program history (33) and the best home record under Lehotak (19-7) to secure the Dolphins second straight A-Sun Tournament berth. The Dolphins set a new single-season record in ERA (2.11), while finishing second on the program list with 329 strikeouts and third in RBI with 175.
The Dolphins will return 13 players from last season, including junior center fielder Kayla Ouellet and senior shortstop Katie Kelly.
Ouellet earned first team all-conference honors after finishing the season with a team-best 66 hits, 32 runs and 16 stolen bases. Kelly added a team-best 34 RBI and enters the year just 15 RBI from the career record and 26 hits from the all-time hits mark.
Sophomore pitcher Olivia Kline returns after posting a 0.93 ERA and 10 wins to earn A-Sun all-freshman honors. Junior Sarah Sigrest hopes to have a bounce back season after fanning eight or more batters in all three appearances en route to a team-best 30 strikeouts.

A great dialogue continues here in Baltimore on accelerating industrial energy efficiency and combined heat and power (CHP) in the region.
Not only do public policies need to provide a solid framework that allows for CHP to be broadly deployed, but champions among end users really need to drive projects and help other stakeholders understand their value propositions.
Those points were driven home particularly by John Baker, Associate Vice Chancellor for Facilities Management at the University of Massachusetts Medical School in Worcester, as well as speakers from New Jersey and New York, including Brian Platt of NYSERDA, Mike Winka, director of the Office of Clean Energy in New Jersey, and Steven Goldenberg, chief counsel to the New Jersey Large Energy Users Coalition.

These powerpoints (ppt files) are an experimental alternative to 4W charts in the Activities Database. The database collection uses Word (doc) files. The doc files are very dense with analysis of factors accompanied by teaching notes. A ppt file can provide a step-by-step layering of ideas as it builds toward a final, highly detailed illustration.
Caution: These ppt files are NOT necessarily recommended for classroom use with students. The initial purpose was for teacher training where teachers can be given quick examples of different applications of the 4W analytical process. However, the purpose of the 4W analytical process is for students to engage directly in layering ideas in order to practice anticipating which social science factors are in play. Partner teachers who help craft these files have spent time to think through applications of the 4W model and ways that they will help students tease out the layers, make connections, and relate to multiple examples. The process is about facilitating student dialog where they are talking about the human condition – engaged in articulating why factors are relevant, theorizing about cause and effect, defending which factors they conclude are more determinant of certain outcomes, and which factors are strategic to resolving or avoiding problems.
As an active reading strategy, some slides are an illustration of textbook-based inference exercises (aka quote activities). The slides provide teachers with examples of questioning the class about textbook main ideas -- guiding students to identify factors and make connections that teachers record step-by-step to a 4W chart on the front board. Regardless of a particular textbook, with any focus question as a study of a human dynamic, students can be guided with examples and leading questions to consider – infer or anticipate – which factors are in play.
Each ppt has a slide with the Table of Contents.
The section for slide notes is sometimes used to clarify how slides progress or how they are integrated with tools, cases and activities from the Activities Database.

93 - Costs of Freedom
|4W ppt: Imperialism
|This ppt is an "active reading" exercise to outline textbook information to a 4W chart. In the 4WH model, active reading is an example of "close reading" mandated by Common Core State Standards. Completing the 4W chart is a text-dependent process.
|As a reading strategy with the textbook, the slides provide teachers with a plan for questioning the class -- guiding students to identify or infer factors and connections. Students 1) organize information according to each type of factor (each world), 2) identify or infer the specific factors in play, and 3) connect or relate the factors. Once completed, students can review all the factors to determine the primary cause of imperialism and problem-solving approaches to ending imperialism.

WASHINGTON, Apr 23, 2012 (IPS) - The World Bank continues to facilitate land-grabbing in poor and developing countries around the world, according to new research released here on Monday.
The report by Friends of the Earth, an international watchdog, is part of a host of initiatives taking place ahead of the start of the Annual World Bank Conference on Land and Poverty, which runs for the next four days.
Friends of the Earth says that anywhere from 80 to 227 million hectares of rural, often agrarian land, typically in poorer countries hungry for foreign investment, have been taken over by private and corporate interests in recent years.
Programmes and policies pushed by the World Bank, the organisation suggests, have been both directly and indirectly responsible for this trend, with examples reportedly coming from more than 60 countries. Read More

The IHOP on Central Avenue in Toledo closed Wednesday morning. Corporate officials told 13abc that the displaced workers would be transferred. One of those workers is now saying that didn't happen.
The employee, who wishes to remain anonymous, says only five people were actually transferred, leaving about 20 others without a job.
The former employee says, "We were actually told that we had to go to the other stores and just talk to the managers there. The majority of the staff went and were told the majority of their stores are actually overstaffed. We weren't guaranteed or promised anything. But IHOP is saying that we were and we weren't."

Red Light Therapy: Anti-Aging Fountain of Youth?
Red Light Therapy New Skin Care Trend
For anyone looking to tap into the Fountain of Youth, check out the latest trend to fight aging: red light therapy.
Mmmhmmm. Raise your hand if you've spent loads trying to recapture your youthful complexion.
Now raise your hand if you've had only minimal success with them. Yeah. Me too.
But, hey guys, red light therapy comes with the backing of science ... so it must work, right?
NASA used red light to help heal wounds and burns, plus it's been used successfully to treat skin cancer.
So far, it sounds better than any anti-aging product that some celebrity is shilling on late night infomercials.
Read: Anti-Aging Innovation Tricks Skin Cells
The visible red light is shown to heal and rejuvenate skin, as Jo Martin, clinical director of Mapperley Park Clinic and an expert in light therapy and laser treatments, explains: "Red light easily penetrates the dermis and can help with a variety of skin conditions, such as acne, rosacea, scarring and eczema, as well as improving skin quality."
She further notes, "The heat and light boost circulation, bringing more blood and nutrients to the area. It also instigates the release of chemical messengers called cytokines. As more cytokines are released, collagen-producing cells called fibroblasts leap into action. If healing is required, then the skin will heal; if it is already healthy, you will get a plumping effect from the extra collagen created."
Read: Simple Routines for Gorgeous Skin
Where do I sign up?
Check your local spa to see if they offer red light therapy or look online for at-home devices that are said to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles after using just minutes a day.

Cardamom prices fall Rs 40/kg on selling pressure
G.K. Nair
Kochi , July 28
CARDAMOM prices fell sharply by Rs 40 a kg at auctions held during the week in Kerala and Tamil Nadu on heavy selling pressure.
There have been heavy arrivals during the week. The early crop this year also turned out to be good. Besides, for the first time auctions were being held in July, trading sources told Business Line.
The arrivals at the auction at Kumily in Kerala on Wednesday stood at 45 tonnes.
Domestic and export buyers were active but they appeared determined to buy at low prices claiming that re-sale was not taking place in the market currently.
The average price at Kumily fell to Rs 232.15 a kg, probably for the first time this year, they said.
According to trading sources in Bodinayakannur, there is no demand both from North and South Indian buyers, while the exporters are silent.
Bulk is being sold at Rs 200- Rs 210 a kg, while floating bulk is sold at Rs 220 - 240. The price of medium bulk had dropped to Rs 170 a kg from Rs 230 - Rs 240 a kg when the auctions began on July 7.
Market continued to slip, they said.
According to some of the farmers, a majority of the growers do not want to hold their produce on the fear that there would be a "bumper crop" this year on favourable weather conditions prevailing in the growing areas.
This phenomenon had resulted in a selling pressure, which, they claimed, was being exploited by the traders who are bidding at low prices. Almost all the quantity brought to the auction centres during the week were sold out.
The individual average price ranged between Rs 232.15 and Rs 236.28 a kg during the week as against Rs 275.31 a kg on July 23, they said.
The total arrivals so far stood at 5,407 tonnes, of which 5,054 tonnes were sold as against 5,774 tonnes and 5,361 tonnes respectively in the same period last season.
