The Penguins explode for 7 goals in game 4, giving them a 3-1 series lead
If you didn't watch last night's game, and have somehow made it through the day without hearing about it, here's the link to NHL.com's boxscore. Spoiler alert: it's not pretty if you're a Sens fan.
You know that feeling you get when your alarm goes off Monday morning after a long-weekend? Well that's what last night's game was for Senators fans: a rude awakening signalling troubling times ahead. Now down 3-1 in a best-of-seven series, the Senators are one loss away from hanging up their jerseys for the season, and one of them might be hanging it up for good.
It's hard to find the right words when talking about the admiration and respect the Senators' fans have for their captain. After last night's loss, I was quickly reminded that it may have been the last home game EVER for number 11 and quickly became sick to my stomach. That said, I'd like to sincerely thank everyone at Scotiabank Place who stuck around until the very end regardless of the final score. Like our captain, you showed great class by sticking it out.
As if watching these games hasn't been difficult and heart wrenching enough as is, now they're in a do-or-die situation and I'll be making sure a defibrillator is within arms reach while watching game five. Bottom line is: they need to win. Win it for themselves; win it for the city; but most importantly, win it for Alfie. Regardless of his post-game comments, we all know Alfredsson will play hard on Friday and do everything in his power to win the game —as he has done in every game he's ever played.
I guess the main message here is that lowering your expectations won't stop you from being disappointed if they lose. So expect the best-case-scenario; expect them to win, and cheer them on. Being a true fan means being able to support your team no matter how bleak and improbable a victory may seem (see Leafs fans for the last decade).
All we can do is:
The Sens are down, but they're not out.

-- CM Punk has reached another milestone as Saturday marks his 300th day as WWE Champion. He also surpassed Ultimate Warrior and Superstar Billy Graham's respective title reigns this week in terms of days held.
-- It would appear that Rosa Mendes is too risqué for WWE's new kid-friendly program on The CW, Saturday Morning Slam. The sultry manager was nowhere to be found on this morning's episode when her men, Primo and Epico, took on Kofi Kingston and R-Truth in a tag team match.
The show is rated TV-G, a level lower than WWE's general TV-PG rating. Due to the program being aimed specifically at children, it does not feature any moves or holds aimed at the neck due to what is seen as their violent nature.

Dawson -- An Albany pet groomer goes on trial in Terrell County for ten counts of animal cruelty.
Lawyers picked a seven-person jury for Steve Morgan's trial Monday, and testimony will start Tuesday.
Prosecutors say they found rows of filthy kennels at Morgan's Terrell County home December 23, 2004. They described most of the dogs found there as "filthy and under nourished."
Two died, and eight others are still being kept at foster homes. The Department of Agriculture also seized horses, goats, pigs, geese, ducks, and chickens found on Morgan's property.
Morgan owns Puddle Jumpers pet grooming business. His trial is expected to last until Thursday.

President kicks deep sea oil drilling to the curb, Black farmer lobbyist wants meeting with BP
by Monica Davis
Meanwhile, the Coast Guard has told newswire reporters that it seems that BP's "top kill" procedure is working. According to the Denver Post:
"Lt. Cmdr. Tony Russell, an aide to Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen, said today the mud was stopping some oil and gas but had a ways to go before it proved successful. The top kill started Wednesday night and it could be several days before officials know if it is working."
On a pessimistic note, Russell said, "As you inject your mud into it, it is going to stop some hydrocarbons. That doesn't mean it's successful."
However, "seems to be working" is the operative phrase. Tom Mueller, spokesperson for BP, formerly British Petroleum, injected caution into the issue, the AP reports: "We appreciate the optimism, but the top kill operation is continuing through the day today — that hasn't changed," he said Thursday morning. "We don't anticipate being able to say anything definitive on that until later today."
Meanwhile, labor continues on cleaning up the mess, some of which is being handled by a controversial amount of dispersants, which are themselves toxic pollutants. And the spill has had serious blowback on various government and private sector executives in the regulation and energy exploration industries.
Sources say the head of the regulatory agency which oversees the oil and gas industry has been fired. CNN is reporting that "Minerals Management Service (MMS) Director Elizabeth Birnbaum has been fired," according to two CNN sources.
Responding to allegations of corruption in MMS ranks, CNN reports: Interior Secretary Ken "Salazar recently called the allegations of MMS corruption 'evidence of the cozy relationship between some elements of [the agency] and the oil and gas industry.' He pledged to follow through with the Interior Department inspector general's recommendations, 'including taking any and all appropriate personnel actions including termination, discipline and referrals of any wrongdoing for criminal prosecution.'"
Meanwhile, Black farmer lobbyist John Boyd Jr., president of the National Black Farmers' Association, has called for a meeting with BP. Boyd is concerned that Black and Native American farmers and fishermen are being overlooked in the search for farmers and fishermen whose lands and fishing grounds have been polluted.
In a statement (published in full below), Boyd said, "NBFA is calling for a meeting with British Petroleum (BP) officials to discuss the losses of Black farmers and fishermen. Black farmers and fishermen must be compensated at the same levels as whites. We have finished last for too long when it comes to being compensated for our business and farm losses."
Black farmers and fishermen must be compensated at the same levels as whites. We have finished last for too long when it comes to being compensated for our business and farm losses.
There are health losses as well. Reports are surfacing of fishermen and cleanup workers contracting breathing problems. As has been reported earlier, many contract workers and volunteers had been cleaning up oil residue and dead, oil-drenched wildlife without the benefit of protective clothing. Clean up crew members and fishermen are reporting health problems – and there is a shortage of facilities to treat them.
According to the Natural Resources Defense Council, Clint Guidry, acting president of the Louisiana Shrimp Association, testifying Monday before a delegation of U.S. senators and state and federal officials in Galliano, Louisiana, said: "There has been no respiratory protective PPE (personal protective equipment) issued to workers working over this most dangerous area, even as a precaution to have available given they are working 60 miles offshore. In fact when some individuals brought their own respirators, they were told by BP representatives on site that if they wore the respirators they would be released from the job. That disturbs me greatly."
And finally, a word on censorship: According to a CBS video with footage on the confrontation, "When CBS News tried to reach the beach, covered in oil, a boat of BP contractors with two Coast Guard officers on board told us to turn around under threat of arrest."
"In other words," comments NaturalNews.com in response, "the U.S. Coast Guard is now protecting the financial interests of corporations by trying to censor a story the public needs to see."
Monica Davis, an Indiana-based author, columnist, activist and radio broadcaster with 10 years' experience in marketing, advertising, investigation and activism, can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com. Bay View staff contributed to this report, which originally appeared on Before It's News.
Black Farmers president calls for action from BP
Statement issued by John W. Boyd, President, National Black Farmers Association
"We are concerned about the livelihood of those who make their living on the land and in the coastal waters who are affected by the oil spill. We extend our prayers and well wishes to the affected families," Boyd said in a statement announcing his plan to visit the affected areas in Louisiana and along the Gulf Coast.
The NBFA is seeking to meet with British Petroleum (BP) officials to discuss the losses to Black farmers and fishermen and others who often are hit hardest in such disasters. Boyd said those least prepared to sustain the income and property losses "must be compensated at the same levels as whites. We have finished last for too long when it comes to being compensated for our business and farm losses."
"Even as the NBFA struggles to secure payments pledged by the Obama administration to thousands of Black farmers to offset discrimination in federal loan and subsidy programs, its members want to assist the victims of the BP well explosion and oil spill," Boyd said. The NBFA, with its experience in advocating for justice for Black farmers, wants to assist similar efforts to assure fairness in the Gulf Coast area, he said.
"We want to assist Black farmers and fishermen to receive payment for damaged property, loss of income and long term issues associated with this spill. BP's response to Black farmers and Black fisherman thus far has been unacceptable. I aim to press BP for justice for NBFA members and other people of color in this catastrophe."
Boyd said Black fishermen and farmers and other persons of color in those occupations in the Gulf Coast region have faced discrimination similar to the unjust treatment of Black farmers over decades by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
BP's response to Black farmers and Black fisherman thus far has been unacceptable. I aim to press BP for justice.
"Little has been done to address the losses of the Black fisherman," he said, "just as there has been little effort to rectify the losses of Black land theft by the U.S. government."

Las Vegas Review Journal: http://www.lvrj.com/news/exxon-valdez-oil-risks-s…
Workers cleaning up oil in the Gulf; be aware of the chemicals that will be used.
I am Merle Savage; a female general foreman during the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill cleanup in 1989, which turned into 20 years of extensive health deterioration for me and 11,000+ workers, without compensation from Exxon. Beach crews breathed in crude oil that splashed off the rocks and into the air which caused chronic breathing conditions, central nervous system problems, and many health issues.
Dr. Riki Ott visited me in 2007 to explain about the toxic spraying on the beaches. She also informed me that Exxon's medical records that surfaced in litigation from sick workers in 1994, had been sealed from the public, making it impossible to hold Exxon responsible for their actions. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=563220885… http://www.silenceinthesound.com/stories.shtml↓
Direct support on the ground in Louisiana and all impacted areas is best. However the current reality that Black Agriculture producers represent only 1 % of all U.S. Agriculture producers under "normal" conditions should cause greater concern for a people who suffer from epedemic levels of diet related disease. http://www.saveblackfarmers.org may be a place to consider visiting soon.↓

Country star Doug Stone made his name as
a baritone balladeer, even though he's
also adept at up-tempo country tunes.
was born and raised in Atlanta, GA, and
learned guitar at the age of five from
his mother, also a country singer. As
a teenager, he performed in skating rinks
in his hometown and later moved on to
playing area bars while working long
hours as a mechanic during the day.
took Stone several years to be found
by his soon-to-be manager who helped him finally
land a record deal with Epic. His self-titled
debut was released in 1990 and broke him in
a big way with the despairing lead single
"I'd Be Better Off (In a Pine Box),"
which shot into the country Top Five. Stone
landed three more Top Ten hits from the album,
including "Fourteen Minutes Old,"
"These Lips Don't Know How to Say Goodbye," and his first number...........

My mother is Jewish, and therefore I am Jewish by birth. But I wasn't raised Jewish and never had a bat mitzvah, etc. I always longed for that piece of my life and felt a void as I was growing up. I met the Fuhrmans (dear family friends and neighbors) when I was 17 and that's really when my education began. I went to services with them, had Shabbat dinners with them, and they taught me so much. When I went away to college, I became close with a few of my professors who were Jewish, and I often went to synagogue with them. I also knew in my heart I wanted to marry a Jewish man and raise my children in a Jewish home.
When Dan and I got engaged, the rabbi we selected to marry us (back in New Orleans)wanted me to have a mikvah. I just couldn't wrap my head around that one. I felt as if he didn't consider me "Jewish enough" to marry Dan. I ultimately refused to have the mikvah for a myriad of reasons, mostly because the idea of it made me extremely uncomfortable (I was a lot more modest before I had kids---you have to get naked to go to the mikvah) and I also felt as if he was passing judgement on me. I felt that if I was making the decision to identify as a Jew, to lead a Jewish life and create a Jewish home, then those things should be enough. And on some level he must have agreed, because he married us.
Since then, it hasn't felt like enough, though. Perhaps it was the arrival of my children, or maybe joining the temple here in KC...I don't really know. I can't really blame the rabbi for it because he married us despite my refusal to have the mikvah over seven years ago. I guess it's been a feeling growing inside of me, nagging at me; a feeling coming from within---of not being worthy. I guess I just feel like calling oneself a Jew isn't something to be taken lightly. It's not a coat you just throw on. You have to earn it and wear it proudly. The number of Jews in the world is dwindling rapidly, and the Holocaust didn't help...I feel a powerful responsibility to learn for myself, teach my children, and be a positive Jewish presence in the world.
Today I went to the mikvah to shed my clothes and my insecurities. I let the water wash away all of my negative feelings and worries. I went there to begin anew. I met with the rabbis before and after, and they gave me a group hug.
Today and every day, I am a Jew.

Intelligence Minister Yuval Steinitz, who is responsible for monitoring Iran's nuclear program, says there is no reason for the world to be celebrating. He says the deal, reached in Geneva is based on "Iranian deception and self-delusion."
Israel believes Iran is pursuing a nuclear weapon.
In recent weeks, Israel had warned the emerging deal would give Iran too much relief from economic sanctions without halting Iran's march toward a nuclear bomb.
President Obama called Netanyahu, pledging consultations on Iran nuclear deal.

SBDC assistance crucial to firm's Success
Every morning, Robin Cunningham is at the computer studying Euro exchange rates. She's a small business owner, not an international economist, but the fluctuation of the Euro has a direct impact on the French soaps and lotions she makes in France and imports to the U.S.
Cunningham, the owner of La Lavande Fine French Soaps in Richmond, has used the services of the Contra Costa SBDC for over 10 years. When she owned a retail store in Walnut Creek, an SBDC consultant counseled her on lease costs. Another SBDC consultant worked with Cunningham on business ratios, inventory, marketing, HR and the importance of reading useful business books. When the constant work of running a retail store and a wholesale firm proved to be overwhelming, SBDC consultant Randy Shores advised Cunningham to concentrate on the wholesale side and recommended a strong web presence to attract a variety of customers. He also suggested systems to track inventory and shipping orders, and how to set goals. At her office and warehouse in Richmond, computers show real-time data instantly.
"You can't guess as a business owner and hope for the best," says Cunningham. "You need to use the right tools and have accurate data. You also have to realize that your business is your main source of income. This isn't a hobby. You have to know what you're doing."
Today, Cunningham focuses on her imported products and their sale to special gift stores across the nation. Every year, she attends key gift shows in Atlanta, New York and San Francisco and has contractors represent her business at smaller events. From the design, shape and scent of the soap and even the display box, Cunningham, who has a degree in art from UC Santa Cruz, is involved every step of the way. But she also knows where to get help when it's needed.
"I think it's difficult for small business owners to afford private business consultants," says Cunningham. "That's the important thing about the SBDC program. The business consultants are real professionals, and the service is free. There's a wealth of help out there and small businesses need to take advantage of that."

Stars' fuss over clothesBy Eye TV India Bureau

Bollywood actresses have different perceptions about the clothes they wear. While some of them are ready to shed them to the minimum, others have inhibitions to wear bikini or scanty clothes. At the same time, some of them say that they can wear bikini or scanty clothes provided these constitute the script's demand. They are right as some directors and the producers want to benefit out of the actresses dresses. On the other hand, there are many stars who are fussy about their dresses whereas several of them care a hoot. Let's know their views on the subject.Model turned actress Esha Gupta says she has no inhibition in wearing a bikini or doing a lip-lock scene. She is proud of being a drama queen, and strongly feels that acting is difficult as compared to modeling. After 'Jannat 2', she is busy these days in 'Raaz 3' and 'Chakravyuh'. She says, "I won't think twice before donning a bikini, but wearing a bikini in a drawing room, why I would say yes to that ever?" She also says that personal life is very, very personal to her.
Sheryln Chopra is all set to pose nude for Playboy magazine. Significantly, she is the one who turned shy at the prospect of bearing it all in the recent past. She claims she was apprehensive as she had never posed nude. It's another matter that she has been prancing around in barely attire. Anyway, Sherlyn couldn't resist the lure of posing for this international magazine and decided to go ahead.Minissha Lamba proved an exception by sitting on the wet stone parapet for a photo shoot while the actors are extremely touchy about their outfits. However, Minissha left everyone amazed, as she did not hesitate and posed happily. In the process her costly dress got smeared with mud, but she had no issues. When her manager rushed to clean the parapet, she asked him to relax. She said the dress can be washed.

Goldman, Blackstone Scoop Up Lloyds Loans
Goldman Sachs and Blackstone walked away with $524 million of commercial real estate debt last week as Lloyds Banking auctioned off loans it inherited from Bank of Scotland.
Goldman was the winning bidder for a pool of 14 performing notes backed by various property types. The bank paid about 90 cents on the dollar for just over $430 million of participation interests in senior mortgages, which was in line with the sellers expectations.
Blackstone achieved a greater discount as it snagged a defaulted mortgage on a luxury condominium high-rise in Stamford, Conn. The New York fund operator paid an undisclosed price for the loan, which has a balance of about $90 million.
Both transactions closed this week, marking one of the biggest loan sales of the year. The auction, run by Eastdil Secured, disposed of nearly all the remaining assets in Bank of Scotlands U.S. loan book. About 10 bidders participated in the final round, including Lone Star Funds of Dallas. H/2 Capital, a Stamford fund shop, also showed substantial interest in the offering, though it isnt known if the firm was in the final round.
The loans acquired by Goldman were only available as a package. The collateral is an assortment of land, hotels, apartment complexes and office buildings. The debt has a weighted average loan-to-value ratio of roughly 65%. The weighted average remaining term is about 19 months, and the weighted average coupon is about 3.75%. Two-thirds of the loan balance is backed by properties in or around New York, Washington, Boston, Los Angeles and Chicago.
The largest loan in the pool is a $68 million participation interest in a $309 million mortgage on the 1,000-room Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek, near Walt Disney World Resort. The hotel is owned by a partnership among GEM Realty of Chicago, Farallon Capital of San Francisco and Blackstone.
The mortgage purchased by Blackstone is secured by the Trump Parc Stamford condo tower, which was completed in 2009 by a group that includes developers Thomas Rich of Stamford and Donald Trump of New York. Only half of the 164 condo apartments have been sold, and its likely Blackstone will ultimately move to take over the unsold units.
Bank of Scotland and its parent, HBOS, were absorbed by Lloyds, the British finance giant, in January 2009 in a deal brokered by the British government to prevent them from collapsing amid the global financial crisis. Lloyds ceded partial ownership of its operations to the government soon after, and since then it has been shedding commercial-mortgage holdings around the world.

Women's cross country ranked eighth in first USTFCCCA South Region Poll
Related Links
The JU women's cross country team's first A-Sun title is still fresh on many people's minds as the Dolphins were ranked eighth in the first U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association south region poll on Monday.
The Dolphins, who tied their highest ranking from last season, sit behind 2009 national runner up Florida State and six schools from the SEC. They also come in higher than conference and cross-town rival North Florida, who was ranked 10th.
"We are coming off our best cross country season ever in 2009," said JU head coach Ron Grigg. "We return our core and add some exciting newcomers. Summer training appears to have gone well, now we will seek consistency and health as we build toward the important meets in mid to late October."
JU was picked first in the recent A-Sun coaches poll after returning six runners from the 2009 squad that posted the program's first conference championship and school-best ninth place finish at the NCAA South Regional.
The Dolphins will start the trail back to the A-Sun Championships on Friday with the JU Short Course Duals at 6 p.m. on the old Dolphins' golf course.

Matchmaking For Creators
With more than 70 registered Venues, there are hundreds of opportunities to be a part of One Spark. To participate in One Spark, Creators must be invited by a Venue during Matchmaking. Venues will house Creator entries during all five days of the event, and serve as bases of operation. Outside of required Venue exhibition, Creators may increase their visibility by taking advantage of three other optional opportunities: Community First Pitch Decks, entertainment stages, and One Spark After Dark performances. Matchmaking/scheduling for each of these opportunities works just a little bit differently.
Creator-Venue Matchmaking (Entry Selection)
February 14, 2014 - February 28, 2014 at 11:59 PM EST
During Matchmaking, Creators and Venues will browse, connect, and communicate with one another:
- Creators may register and submit entries online from December 1, 2013 - February 21, 2014, 11:59 PM EST.
- During matchmaking, February 14, 2014 - February 28, 2014, 11:59 PM EST., Creators may browse and express interest in Venues to initiate a conversation.
- Venues may view entries, sort them by Project category, and engage Creators directly to discuss exhibition requirements and details.
- Creators and Venues may communicate online via messaging and will work together to create a Venue-Creator Hosting Agreement.
- The Venue will send the Creator a final invitation to host and agreement. The Creator may either accept or decline this invitation.
- Upon acceptance, the Creator drops off the inventory list and his/her project is entered as an official One Spark 2014 entry.
- Matchmaking closes February 28 , 2014, 11:59 PM EST. At midnight, matchmaking features will be disabled. One Spark will pull the Creator roster for each Venue, and compile accepted Projects into an official list. Creator Projects will then be showcased online in a gallery format.
A few things to keep in mind:
- One Spark is not involved in the matchmaking or negotiations process. We only provide an online platform to facilitate. It's up to Venues and Creators to connect and reach an agreement.
- Each Venue has its own selection criteria and process. If you have questions about a particular Venue, please contact that Venue directly.
- Venues may invite/host multiple Creators, but Creators can only select one primary Venue.
- Creators may show interest in a Venue, but Venues are the ones who issue invitations.
- Venues and Creators should discuss and outline terms in a Venue-Creator Hosting Agreement before making their final decision online.
- If you do not receive acceptance notification from One Spark, your Project is not eligible for One Spark 2014.
Creator Matchmaking Tips
When it comes to Matchmaking, there are several ways to improve your chances of finding your perfect fit.
6 Steps To Finding Your Perfect Match:
Step 1: Update Your Creator Profile (Pronto).
During Creator Registration, please log in to your One Spark account and update your profile and Project. Add photos, descriptions, space needs, and other details. The more complete and attractive your profile, the easier it will be to connect with Venues (entry selectors) and additional promotional opportunities.
Step 2: Promote your Project
Ultimately, it is the Venues who decide who gets to showcase at One Spark, but get a leg up on the competition by sharing your Project on Facebook and racking up those Likes. This shows the Venues that people are interested in what you're doing and that you know how to bring people to their space.
Step 3: Browse Venue Profiles (Beginning February 14, 2014)
Once Matchmaking opens, browse Venue profiles, looking for the best spaces to fit your unique Project, needs, and creative vision.
Step 4: Start A Conversation
Don't wait around for Venues, let 'em know you're interested! Creators may express interest in Venues to notify them directly. Once you hear from a Venue, work with them to discuss needs, requirements, and other partnership details to complete a Venue-Creator Hosting Agreement.
Step 5: Reach A Venue-Creator Hosting Agreement
The Venue-Creator Hosting Agreement is an agreement between one Venue and one Creator (individual or group of individuals) that outlines all exhibition details including entry and exhibition space, installation and removal, promotion, insurance, security, and more. Venues that host more than one Creator will need one agreement for each Creator. One Spark does not require a copy of Venue-Creator Hosting Agreements. As a starting point, Creators and Venues may download a template.
Step 6: Make Your Final Decision (By February 28, 2014 at 11:59 PM EST)
Ultimately, Venues select Creators and official One Spark Projects, but Creators get to "yay" or "nay" the offer first. After discussing terms with a Creator, a Venue will send the Creator a final invitation to host and agreement. The Creator may then accept or decline the invitation. Accept the invitation and your Project entry will be removed from the Matchmaking "inventory" (but still show online). At midnight EST on February 28, 2013, Matchmaking features will be disabled. One Spark will pull the Creator roster for each Venue, and compile accepted entries into an official list. Projects will then be showcased online in a gallery format.

Good morning! Well, my Gators won yesterday, but good night, the offense didn't look very good for the second straight week.
Bama, Oregon, K-State, then there's that team Urban Meyer coaches again (the EX-Gator coach), and for Judi and Brian, that Irish team looks good too. Can't remember the name of their school though, or at least bring myself to say it anyway! LOL
Back last November we did a post talking about the heart benefits of taking garlic, ginger, apple cider vinegar, and lemon juice. After getting these four juices mixed, then adding 3 cups of pure honey.
Because of the comments that keep coming in over this post, I thought we'd discuss it once more.
The recipe is as follows…
1 cup lemon juice
1 cup apple cider vinegar
1 cup garlic juice
1 cup ginger juice
4 total cups…add the 4 juices together then boil until there are 3 cps of liquid left. Add 3 cups pure honey, and mix well. Put into a container and refrigerate. 1-2 teaspoons daily, but I take 2 tablespoons anymore.
Personally, I get ginger root, garlic cloves, and fresh lemons, then run them through my juicer extracting a cup of each individually. I purchase the apple cider vinegar and we have fresh honey here on the place.
I had received this recipe from a very good friend of mine, a Mr. Duggal, who happens to believe in alternative medicine. He's originally from India, but has lived in the US since 1959. He's a great guy, and a man I am very proud to call…my friend. Deb absolutely loved him.
As many of you know, I had a massive heart attack in June of 2008. It's a dern wonder I didn't die, as it was the very same type of heart attack that had killed Tim Russert just shortly before I suffered mine.
Actually the Doctor told me after I'd received a stent, that this was the case, and asked if I knew of Mr. Russert? I told him that yes, who didn't? He then made the statement, "You did have the very same heart attack that killed Mr. Russert. So why do you think that you lived and he didn't?"
I simply replied that God was not ready for me yet, and evidently I hadn't lived out his plan, so…here I am.
He then said that this was exactly right.
You all know that Deb had opted for alternative treatment in regards to her cancer after taking one chemo treatment.
I thought to myself, you know, if she has the strength to step outside of the medical spectrum and go alternatives, then I'm going to do the very same thing in regards to my heart medicines, which by the way, I was taking seven of.
Also, I could think of no better way to show my own support for her, than using alternative treatment myself. MY concern was simply to stand beside her and give her 110% of my time, and just simply…be there for her.
My own life became a distant second, and to be honest, during this time I really didn't care what happened to me. SHE was my life, and once more, my main reason for even attempting this "heart treatment" was…mental support for her…and since she chose this route, alternatives, then I'm doing so as well.
Kinda like, "what's good for the goose…is good for the gander." Really, that's how I felt about it!
First off, I'd saw firsthand the effects of chemo on Deb, and by saying this, I'm knocking chemo by any means. She always told me that you HAVE to do what YOU feel…in your own heart…what is best for you.
She did exactly that, AND, the quality of life she had, WE had, during her struggle was absolutely tremendous! We could not have had any better quality of life than what we experienced. It was fourteen and a half months of her doing ANY and EVERYTHING she'd always done!
Secondly, we got to weighing the effects of some of these drugs on your body. We began to see, and believe that, although these drugs were probably doing some good, BUT, in the same breath, what were they doing to our bodies that…wasn't good?
So, with that in mind, we REALLY began to wonder, "When does the bad…outweigh the good?"
Most know that Deb lost her fight with her cancer, BUT, when we discovered it, it was Stage 4 breast cancer, and had metastasized to a spot below her tracheal tube with spots on her lungs and liver, although very, very tiny, and not distinguishable AS cancer.
But, her diagnosis was terminal…it WAS going to get her, and we all know the ending.
BUT, once more, her quality of life was tremendous. I know in my heart she would not have changed ONE thing, and I have to be honest with you guys today, IF, I were diagnosed with cancer tomorrow…I'd do EXACTLY the same type treatment Deb did. NO DOUBT!
The moral behind Deb's story in regards to this heart treatment is that HER life, and HER experience, opened our eyes in that there are other ways of doing things. YES, we're not medical doctors, and by no means claim to be. BUT, what, and how we treat our body is literally…OUR decision. That's all.
It is…OUR CHOICE.
So, enough of that…
Now…have I been back to my heart doctor? The answer is no, BUT, I will here soon. How many times have you guys heard that before?? I'll probably set up an appointment before Christmas. LOL!
Honestly though, I am going soon. I'm beginning to look forward to a visit to my Doc.
I feel great health wise, I've lost 70 pounds, I haven't been on any type of heart medicines, I eat much better than I used to, I still juice about 20-25 fruits and veggies daily, just as Deb and I did, and I exercise daily as well.
My reasoning for today's post again, is comments we've received. Some of which, we'll share now…
Dear Deb, thank you for sharing. Today I tried to mix up all 4 juices and boil, then the color changed to greenish blue. Is it ok? How about yours? Hope to receive your reply soon. Thanks again. —– Lily
Yes, once boiled down and mixed, the color does change to a bluish green tint.
This from Sandy in Mobile
OK…………..here is the news we have been waiting on.
My total Cholesterol was 213 (norm for women 100-199
HDL 73 (norm->39)
LDL 107 (norm 0-99)
Triglycerides 165 (norm 0-149) Mine was 300
Best part is that my ratio is 1.5 and that is WONDERFUL
I am staying with my red yeast rice (eating red rice and taking the capsules daily) and taking the vinegar solution. My Dr. is not convinced and is doing more blood work in 3 months. I am thrilled.
From Ruben
well let me tell u guys, that i am an asthamatic patient since last 40 years,and after taking this mixture for the first time i was off steroid inhalers.my asthma just disappeared.To top it ,my immune system got a huge boost. few days back i was travelling with some friends and 2 of them had severe cold n cough,and me being very finnicky,was wishing i hadnt travelled with them as i was feeling i would catch it from them.

friends PLEASE go ahead and take it ……its a miracle cure…..
lotsa luv …….Ruben
ok……i missed an important point…….my asthma was cured after i took the mixture for almost a month and a half…….Ruben……
From Deb (not my Deb)
My Mother in Law SWEARS by this concoction. Her cholesterol is lower than it has been in a long time … dropping 40+ points. I am going to start taking this as well. Her neighbor is Sri Lankan (?) and gave her this recipe.
From KKumar
I had heard about this some time back but was not sure how good this is.
Finally i decided to jump into the band wagon and made this mixture last night.
I will say i have to agree that we whole house stinked for over 12 hours. Pheew.
Took the first dose this morning.
Btw i had a massive attack in 2009 and had 2 full blocks and am present inserted with two stents.
As of mid this year i started to have the same old pain again and am going for my angiogram on the 30th of this month (oct). I hope that taking this mixture i will come out of this with flying colours.
Thanks for the write up and Godbless.
Then…this from KKumar just recently after his angiogram…
Hi Guys,
Just got back last night from the hospital after undergoing my angiogram. The results surprised me. All this while i was thinking that taking this mixture will help me abit, But i was wrong. It did not help me abit. IT HELPED ME ALOT. I was in for a shock when the doc told me my stents are all clear and the 60% block i had in one vein was totally cleared. Wow. Was i dreaming…. no i was not.
I would like to thank Dub and Deb for highlighting this article for all of us.
Thank you again and god bless you folks.
Btw i pray and hope you guys are all from from the superstorm Sandy. God bless you guys.
This from Shabbir on Oct. 5th.
I have been using this mixture of Garlic juice,Ginger juice,Lemon Juice , Applecider Vinegar and pure Honey for the past 8 months and has worked miracles., Cholestrol is way down , Blood pressure in normal , headaches are gone , digestion has improved.No more medication now.
This too from Shabbir on Nov. 1.
Hi Dub & Deb:
Many thanks for sharing your recipe for vein opening.
I am also seriously into complementary & alternative medicine. You may try chelation, ECP and supplementary medicine which works wonders and is an alternative route to angio and bypass.
All the best. Health is all the wealth we have
So you see, there are testimonials out there that share good results from this mixture. You may read ALL the comments if you'll go into our Nov. of 2011 archives and pull the post up, or just click on the story link from one of the comments themselves.
There are one or two that claim this mixture did nothing for them, and I'm sure this is the case, but, so far the good far outweighs any negative that we've received.
As Deb says, do what your own heart tells you to do. Personally, I find that good, sound advice.
I promise you this though, without my being around Deb and witnessing firsthand her faith in her treatment, her resolve to win her fight, her unwavering positivity throughout her ordeal, and her ability to get back off the floor when knocked down, brush her britches off, then jump right back up and fight again…I would never be in such good health today.
SHE is the sole reason for my being fit today. She is still my inspiration, and to be honest, if I was to slack off, I'd feel that I'd let HER down.
Yes, she may have lost her fight in the end, but I promise you this…the cancer KNEW…it had been in a fight. Plus, by setting such good examples for me to follow, I know, that through this all, she has saved my own life.
I can never thank her enough. While fighting a fight she probably never could have won, yet worried about me and my heart condition throughout. My God what a woman she was, and you sure picked a good one to bring back home with you!
I was truly blessed!
You guys have a great day, and God Bless you all! Be sure to keep a smile on your face, and one in your heart!

Cooking Lesson
During our PST, we had a cooking lesson with our Mozambican host families to learn how to prepare several traditional dishes. Here, a fellow PCV is displaying her adept skills for pounding matapa leaves.
Makarra Dance
Some of my youth empowerment group participants dancing a traditional Mozambican dance in the community market.
Computer Class
I am teaching Mozambican secondary school students the basics of computer and internet use. For many in the picture, it was the first time ever using a computer.
The Little Rose on Ngong Road
I have become accustomed to seeing groups of school children walking for miles, all in their school uniforms, to and from school every day. Some of the groups are made up of 10 kids or more, some are groups of 4 and occasionally I will see them 2 by 2 – but I don't remember in rural Kenya ever seeing a single school child walking alone. So I remember for just a second, that when I first caught sight of The Girl on Ngong Road, that seeing this young (probably about 7) school girl walkin...
Hanging in There
Local Rasta baby relaxing as locals do best.
Black Creek Bathing?
Trees roots in Guyana, dye the water brown and many Amerindians of Guyana bathe and do laundry in this water. It is a strange experience to be in river water and barely able to see your own hand underneath it. The first thoughts of volunteers-- Are there Piranhas or water snakes?
Stop Child Labour
June 12th-- World Day Against Child Labour March was organized by Peace Corps volunteers in conjunction with NGO Educare. Guyanese children all over Bartica marched in their village to exclaim the importance of education and brought the awareness of Child Labour to the forefront to their country. This March was published in the Guyanese newspaper.
A boy on his way home after full day of Phagwah--the Hindu festival of colors. This day started off with a religious service at the local Mandir where everyone wears white and receives their first of powder thrown at them. The Mandir group then proceeds down the road to fellow Mandir members houses, beating drums and cymbals and singing. Once the group arrives to the house more singing and music is played and food and drink are received.
Coconut Tree
I never understood how Dominicans did stuff like this with such ease (look closely and you'll see a man up there). It looked to me like they were climbing small skyscrapers sometimes. Great to have a guy like this around when you are thirsty though. . .
On a trek down Dominica's largest/longest river, the Layou, we got this great photo of a friend from the village doing a backflip off a sandbar. He was fearless, and did stuff much crazier than than this on a daily basis. 40 foot jump into a river from a tree? No problem. This was a great hike though as we were completely stuck in nature for several hours, just trekking the river.

How much is a trillion dollars?
I heard this on the radio the other day and for the first time I was really able to grasp the difference between one million dollars, one billion dollars, and one trillion dollars. 1 Million Seconds = 11.57 Days 1 Billion Seconds = 31.69 Years 1 Trillion Seconds = 31,688.76 Years

"If you want to aggressively snack your way through a neighborhood as you walk it," says Fodor's, "consider hanging with cookbook author Tom Medin or one of his local guides." Medin is one of the founders of Local Tastes of the City Tour/SF Food Tours, and he personally leads many of the company's walking tours, which seek out the soul of the city in its bakeries, restaurants, and cafes. The hunt for hidden gems might lead to Chinatown's oldest bakery and a fortune cookie-making demonstration, or through an authentic Western saloon. The North Beach tour, which has been recommended by Lonely Planet, presents a behind-the-scenes look at coffee-roasting by way of the favored hangouts of the Beat Generation. Even when a tour skirts the city's iconic landmarks via painted bus, each stop is replete with tastings and demos, which is why the guides recommend that visitors avoid eating before a tour or swallowing their backpacks for safekeeping.
Even before you climb inside, the GoCar is clearly a car with a personality. The petite, three-wheeled two-seater has a hood that slightly resembles an eager-to-please smiley face, and an open top that seems custom-made for letting the breeze ruffle your hair. Then the real fun begins: built with the company's own software and a compassion for the voiceless robots of America, a talking GPS system guides two-seater GoCars through the city streets of San Francisco, San Diego, Miami, Barcelona, Madrid, and Lisbon with cheerful, info-rich narration. Second only to having a knowledgeable local jog alongside your minivan, tours zip along at drivers' own pace and accommodate as many pit stops as time allows.
For Pioneer Limousines, the lap of luxury comes with a seat belt. The transportation outfit whisks away passengers within the comfortable confines of a fleet of vehicles, that includes a Cadillac Escalade, Mercedes Benz S-Class, BMW 7-Series, Lincoln Town Car L-Series, and a stretch limo that can seat up to nine passengers. Piloting the regal rides and participating in an Earth-sized game of connect the dots, chauffeurs get customers from point A to point B via transport services that cater to airport travelers, wedding parties, and group outings.

As the old adage says, "Stuff happens." What training do you and your staff have to stay ahead of the unexpected?
Each VIP Host is trained to deal with any issues that may occur on the tour from drunk guests to venues being over crowded when we arrive. They take the initiative to solve these issues on the spot to make the tour most enjoyable.
What is the experience customers can expect, and how do you make it special?
If the guests are celebrating an event being a birthday, bachelor/bachelorette party, corporate function, convention etc, our hosts inform the club to give them special shoutouts from the DJ. We also cater to those guests to ensure they and their group are extremely happy.
Have you ever been a patron of your own business? If so, what was the most enjoyable part?
Yes of course. Myself as well as all employees go on "dry runs" to ensure we enjoy the tours so our guests will too. The discounted drinks throughout the night saves over $200 a night.
Is there anything else you want to add that we didn't cover?
We have unlimited tickets available each night so the more the merrier.
According to Sidewalk Food Tours of San Francisco, it's not the Golden Gate Bridge that ties the city together. It's the gooey cheese of its family pizzerias, the chocolate truffles of its dessert shops, and all of the region's other cuisines that help define the various neighborhoods—and their walking tours aim to introduce participants to those local flavors. In the Mission District, for instance, Sidewalk Food Tours' knowledgeable guides lead groups through tastings of tacos, falafel, and French-style bakery treats. In North Beach, they show how a large Italian American population resulted in restaurants that have endured more than 100 years. Along each route, the guides also impart facts about the neighborhood's history and culture, and reveal which buildings are built on a foundation of provolone cheese.
If you follow Excelsior Urban Hikes' resident guide Christina, it will only take you two hours to see all of San Francisco. That's because it takes two hours to hike to the top of Mount Davidson, which offers stunning views of the city, both bay bridges, and the Pacific Ocean beyond to visitors who reach its summit.
Christina leads hikes down city streets and through nature trails to reveal scenic vistas. Besides Mount Davidson, she often takes groups to McLaren Park, where she points out interesting graffiti and pauses so hikers can take in views of the Outer Mission District. Christina also takes nighttime excursions to the top of Bernal Hill, where hikers can marvel at the sparkling bay lights and a lightening bug with a great stand-up routine.

Magical Crystals and Gemstones
Many Pagans use crystals and gemstones in workings, because every stone is connected to some aspect of the human experience. Different traditions attribute various therapeutic and magical properties to each stones, but you can learn which correspondences work best for you. While this is by no means a comprehensive list of every stone in existence, you can use this as a reference point and add to it in your own notes. Write down any workings you do in your Book of Shadows so you can keep track of your results later on. Magical Crystals and Gemstones
Magical Herbs and Their Uses
So you've decided you're ready to do a magical working... but you're not sure which herbs are the best ones to use. Use this list as a reference point to determine which herbs, plants and flowers are the best choices for your purposes. Use magical herbs to help relieve anxiety, bring love into your life, profive protection, or ease your dreams at night! Magical Herbs and Their Uses
Magical Herbs - Photo Gallery
Herbs have been used for thousands of years, both medicinally and ritually. Every herb has its own unique characteristics, and these properties are what makes the plant special. Subsequently, many Wiccans and Pagans use herbs as part of their regular ritual practice. Magical Herbs Photo Gallery
Magical Color Correspondences
Did you know that every color has its own symbolism? In many magical traditions, color magic is used because colors have certain associations. You may wish to keep a variety of colored paper, fabric, ribbons, or ink on hand to use in different magical workings. Also, bear in mind that some traditions may set their own correspondences that differ from this list. Magical Color Correspondences
Magical Flower Correspondences
For hundreds of years, the plants that we grow have been used in magic. Flowers in particular are often connected with a variety of magical uses. When your flowers begin to bloom, keep an eye out for some of these flowers around you, and consider the different magical applications they might have. Magical Flower Correspondences
Magical Number Correspondences
Many Pagan spiritual traditions incorporate the practice of numerology. The basic principles of numerology hold that numbers have a great deal of spiritual and magical significance. Some numbers are more potent and powerful than others, and combinations of numbers can be developed for magical use. In addition to magical correspondences, numbers also tie into planetary significance. Magical Number Correspondences
Magical Household Correspondences
Magical Animal Correspondences
Moon Phase Correspondences
Every full moon is surrounded by legends and lore of its own. Learn about the monthly full moons that emerge each year, and the magical correspondences for each. Moon Phase Correspondences
Elemental Correspondences
In modern-day Paganism, there is a good deal of focus on the four elements – Earth, Air, Fire, and Water. A few traditions of Wicca also include a fifth element, which is Spirit or Self. Each of the elements is associated with traits and meanings, as well as with directions on the compass. The following directional associations are for the Northern hemisphere; readers in the Southern hemisphere should use the opposite correspondences. Elemental Correspondences
Celtic Tree Symbolism
The Celtic Tree Calendar is a calendar with thirteen lunar divisions. Most contemporary Pagans use fixed dates for each "month", rather than following the waxing and waning lunar cycle. If this was done, eventually the calendar would fall out of sync with the Gregorian year, because some calendar years have 12 full moons and others have 13. The modern tree calendar is based on a concept that each letter in the ancient Celtic alphabet corresponded to a tree. Celtic Tree Symbolism

Mountains Beyond Mountains (Adapted for Young People): The Quest of Dr. Paul Farmer, A Man Who Would Cure the World (Compact Disc)
Usually Ships in 1-5 days
Tracy Kidder is a winner of the Pulitzer Prize and the author of the bestsellers The Soul of a New Machine, House, Among Schoolchildren, and Home Town. He has been described by the Baltimore Sun as the "master of the non-fiction narrative." This powerful and inspiring new book shows how one person can make a difference, as Kidder tells the true story of a gifted man who is in love with the world and has set out to do all he can to cure it.
At the center of Mountains Beyond Mountains stands Paul Farmer. Doctor, Harvard professor, renowned infectious-disease specialist, anthropologist, the recipient of a MacArthur "genius" grant, world-class Robin Hood, Farmer was brought up in a bus and on a boat, and in medical school found his life's calling: to diagnose and cure infectious diseases and to bring the lifesaving tools of modern medicine to those who need them most. This magnificent book shows how radical change can be fostered in situations that seem insurmountable, and it also shows how a meaningful life can be created, as Farmer—brilliant, charismatic, charming, both a leader in international health and a doctor who finds time to make house calls in Boston and the mountains of Haiti—blasts through convention to get results.
Mountains Beyond Mountains takes us from Harvard to Haiti, Peru, Cuba, and Russia as Farmer changes minds and practices through his dedication to the philosophy that "the only real nation is humanity" - a philosophy that is embodied in the small public charity he founded, Partners In Health. He enlists the help of the Gates Foundation, George Soros, the U.N.'s World Health Organization, and others in his quest to cure the world. At the heart of this book is the example of a life based on hope, and on an understanding of the truth of the Haitian proverb "Beyond mountains there are mountains": as you solve one problem, another problem presents itself, and so you go on and try to solve that one too.
"Mountains Beyond Mountains unfolds with the force of a gathering revelation," says Annie Dillard, and Jonathan Harr says, "[Farmer] wants to change the world. Certainly this luminous and powerful book will change the way you see it."
About the Author
Tracy Kidder has won the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Award, and the Robert F. Kennedy Award, among other literary prizes. The author of The Soul of a New Machine, House, Among Schoolchildren, Old Friends, and Home Town, Kidder lives in Massachusetts and Maine.
Praise for Mountains Beyond Mountains (Adapted for Young People): The Quest of Dr. Paul Farmer, A Man Who Would Cure the World…
"In this excellent work, Pulitzer Prize—winner Kidder immerses himself in and beautifully explores the rich drama that exists in the life of Dr. Paul Farmer…Throughout, Kidder captures the almost saintly effect Farmer has on those whom he treats."
-Publisher's Weekly, starred review
"[A] Skilled and graceful exploration of the soul of an astonishing human being."
-Kirkus Reviews, starred review
"A fine writer and his extraordinary subject: Tracy Kidder, in giving us Paul Farmer, lifts up an image of hope–and challenge–that the world urgently needs. Simply put, this is an important book." -James Carroll, author of Constantine's Sword
"The central character of this marvelous book is one of the most provocative, brilliant, funny, unsettling, endlessly energetic, irksome, and charming characters ever to spring to life on the page. He has embarked on an epic struggle that will take you from the halls of Harvard Medical School to a sun-scorched plateau in Haiti, from the slums of Peru to the cold gray prisons of Moscow. He wants to change the world. Certainly this luminous and powerful book will change the way you see it."—Jonathan Harr, author of A Civil Action
"A profoundly inspiring and important book about one of the truly great men of our time." —Ethan Canin, author of Carry Me Across the Water
"Here is a genuine hero alive in our times. Mountains Beyond Mountains unfolds with the force of gathering revelation. Like all of Tracy Kidder's books, it is as hard to put down as any good and true story."—Annie Dillard, author of The Writing Life
"Mountains Beyond Mountains is the only book I've read in years that made me feel like cheering. It left me uncomfortable, guilty, and exhausted—but it also inspired me, kept me up all night, and moved me to tears. Some readers will find their lives changed forever; everyone else will emerge, at the very least, with an unexpectedly revised set of values. Tracy Kidder has given us not only an unforgettable book but an unignorable life lesson. Hurrah!" —Anne Fadiman, author of The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down
"Rarely has idealism fared so well on the planet as in Tracy Kidder's eloquently reported Mountains Beyond Mountains. One is tempted to call Paul Farmer's passionate sensibilities and loving ambitions otherworldly, but only in sadness that there are too few of him in the world. Kidder has provided us all, as the Farmerites say, with a road map to decency, and such an endowment is beyond measure." —Bob Shacochis, author of Easy in the Islands
"Is there anything Tracy Kidder can't do? This is a beautiful book, and a masterful one. Even better, Mountains Beyond Mountains is a page-turner that will crack your conscience open." -Stacey Schiff, author of Vera
"An incredible story about an incredible man told by an incredible writer. Mountains Beyond Mountains is the sort of book that makes you want to buy a hundred copies and pass them out like a street corner evangelist. It's the sort of book that will affect your life in a profound way. In a good way." -Thom Jones, author of The Pugilist at Rest
"Saints are notoriously difficult people, but who knew one could be so funny, so utterly charming, and finally so deft in accomplishing that most impossible of all job descriptions--changing the world? Tracy Kidder's spellbinding story presents us with an unlikely saint and finally, with inspiration so compelling it makes the usual cynicism about global change seem indulgent foolishness."
-Patricia Hampl, author of A Romantic Education

A larger iPhone--- Is it needed?
I've read many comments in the past regarding how some people think the screen on the iPhone is perfect at 3.5 in.
Many say that anything over that is unnecessary. That if you need a screen larger than that, just use your tablet. Some make comments of how ridiculous large screened phones are.
Now, I personally use a Galaxy Nexus and iPad. I love both. I even purchased an iPhone 4S briefly.
The 4S had to be returned though because for me, the screen was too small.
After getting accustomed to a larger screen, going back was very difficult. I found myself picking up my iPad more often because reading on the iPhone was harder to do.
Now, with rumors circulating that the new iPhone will finally see an increase in size, I'm seriously considering giving it a shot. But, it makes me wonder: Will a 4in screen be enough?
To see if it would, I've been using my wife's Droid Incredible 2. It uses a four inch LCD. Certainly smaller than the monster on my Nexus, and a much smaller footprint in hand.
What I've found is that I think that honestly, the half of an inch makes a big difference in use.
For many, I think that if Apple does move to a slightly larger screen, it would be good. With people using the phones for so many things, GPS and such, the added space will be huge.
So, how many think Apple should definetely go bigger with the screen?
If they don't, will it put you off on buying another iPhone?

SALISBURY, Md. - A Salisbury man has been arrested, after allegedly stealing a vehicle out of a driveway.
Salisbury Police say on Tuesday morning, just before 7:00 AM, they were called to a home on Dover Street, in reference to the theft of a vehicle. The victim told Police that he had started his vehicle in the driveway, left it running, and unlocked in the driveway, while he went back inside the home.
According to the report, while the victim was inside, he saw an unknown person drive his vehicle out of the driveway. The victim then called Police while reportedly following the suspect in another vehicle. Officers on patrol observed the stolen vehicle driving erratically, and fast on Route 13, near E. Church Street, and attempted to pull it over, but it fled, until colliding with a pole on Snow Hill Road at E. Vine Street.
Police say the driver, 28-year-old Charles Whitfield Jr., fled on foot, but was taken into custody. He was charged with theft of a motor vehicle, failure to obey lawful order, resisting arrest, and obstructing and hindering. Whitfield was released to the custody of Central Booking.

Theres a lot to be said for suburban gems. In fact, for this weeks review I plan to say 850 words about one in particular. In the novelty-obsessed world of restaurant reviewing its nice, once in a while, to salute the stayers of the industry dining rooms where you can always be guaranteed a good meal for your money.
Thats why this week weve ended up at the cosy Kooyong French diner known as Koots Salle à Manger, where owners Patrice and Catherine Repellin have been putting the "oui" into cuisine since 1999. Their chic shopfront restaurant shines in summer, when its jasmine-draped rear courtyard is the setting for long, lazy lunches. But its even more enticing in winter, when the sandstone hearth crackles to life, the tiered chandelier twinkles onto the street and diners huddle in convivial groups around smartly clothed tables.
Despite Koots Salle à Mangers obvious attributes, theres no escaping that name a sort of hybrid Aussie-French title that possibly confuses both nationalities. Australians might understand koots to refer to either (a) a local waterbird or, more uncharitably, (b) the average age of the diners. But they might be less confident in declaring that salle à manger is the way French people say dining room. Personally, I think Salle à Manger on its own would be nicer and easy to Australianise perhaps Cellar Monjay but this is not my restaurant so Ill defer to the superior neighbourhood nous of Les Repellins, who clearly dont need any advice from an upstart blow-in like moi.
The crowd, incidentally, is not particularly antique at all but a well-to-do cross-section of this blue-ribbon belt who, like me, have been lured inside by the promise of a crackling fire and cracking-good French fare.
Butter-glazed heirloom carrots in paintbox colours of purple, orange and yellow brighten up a quinoa-based, walnut-dressed salad rounded out with creamy goats curd, smoky baba ghanoush caviar and an irresistible golden fritter of puréed salt cod (brandade).
The wine list, a French-Australasian collaboration, seems really quite reasonable. Theres a heap of decent drops under $50 and a Puligny Montrachet premier cru for the not-outrageous sum of $155. In other good news for diners, theres a prix-fixe two-course lunch for $30 and, between Tuesday and Thursday, they can BYO one bottle per reservation at $15 corkage. Between the wines and the cocktails, theres plenty of good drinking to be had here.
Our meal just gets better with the arrival of the cheese soufflé, a puffy pudding baked until appealingly dark at the fringes and sitting in a Vesuvius of tomme and gruyere béchamel. We destroy that soufflé in record time.
Chef Repellins fresh take on traditional French recipes is obvious in the thin apple tart we have for dessert. Its a slimmed-down tarte tatin with a wafer base of puff pastry topped with impeccable apple slices, beurre noisette or hazelnut butter ice-cream, and dusted cinnamon. The tried-and-true flavours play nicely together but the advertised caramel was sparse. But this is a minor quibble, a mere bagatelle.
Koots is now very firmly on my eating circuit, despite being miles from home. If I can get there at least twice a year for the simple pleasures of a polished three-course meal, a crackling fire and seamless service, Ill be happy.

Albany-- State Superintendent of Schools Kathy Cox calls Lincoln Fundamental Magnet School a model for the state. Lincoln is one of the eight Georgia schools nominated for the 2003 to 2004 "No Child Left Behind" Blue Ribbon School Program.
"I have to give credit to our retired Principal Mrs. Janice Shephard," said Principal Sheryl Holmes. "It was because of all of her hard work and the dedication of students parents and the community."
"It's the procedure and the rules and the parents," said Teacher Martha Owens. "All that works together to make us what we are."
The winner will be announced next September. The selected school will be honored in Washington, D.C.

National Security Namyeong dong 1985
National Security Namyeong dong 1985
From Monday, August 5th though Sunday, 11th, The Korea Society and MoMA (The Museum of Modern Art) co-presents 'Focus on Korea' as part of 'ContemporAsian' film series which presents many contemporary Asian films from pan-Asian countries. The series selects critically lauded Korean films, highlighting current social issues, injustice and human nature. The films maximize distinctive narrative skills from some of Korea's insightful and penetrative renegade filmmakers. Three directors will be presented: Dir. Chung J-young (National Security), Dir. Lee Ji-seung (Azooma) and Dir. Jeon Soo-il (El Condo Pasa). National Security (New York premier) garnered acclaim by The Hollywood Reporter as 'one such picture from South Korea, an entirely sincere and dignified effort by Chung Ji-young.' Screen Daily commented that 'El Condo Pasa (New York Premier) is a compelling addition to Jeon Soo-il's body of work' noting that the film 'mirrors the Themes of religion, grief and forgiveness found in Lee Chang-dong's Secret Sunshine (2007).' Director Lee's Azooma had accolades from Beyond Hollywood, "Azooma is certainly a very angry film, though justifiably so, and it's all the more powerful for the fact that it's very well made.'
National Security (Namyeong-dong 1985) 2012 (106 min, T2) directed by Chung Ji-young. This film is based on the memoir written by the late Kim Geun-tae, a famous politician and the former Minister of Health and Welfare in Korea. Kim was captured, imprisoned, and tortured for 22 days at a specially designed facility located at Namyoung-dong on September 1985.
Event schedule: Monday, August 5, 2013 @7:00 p.m./Tuesday, August 6, 2013 @4:00 p.m./Wednesday, August 7, 2013 @7:00 p.m./Thursday, August 8, 2013 @4:00 p.m./Friday, August 9, 2013 @4:00 p.m. *Filmmaker Present /Saturday, August 10, 2013 @1:30 p.m

Another way to get involved is by emailing suggestions to email@example.com.
Cllr Michael Hyman, Executive Member for Economic Growth and Prosperity said: "The successful implementation of the Altrincham Strategy will help secure the transformation of Altrincham Town Centre. The delivery of significant regeneration in the town centre will create a thriving and successful Modern Market Town. The strategy will be delivered through Altrincham Forward, our public private partnership which is working to regenerate the town."
The vision for Altrincham is to create a place that will have its 'own distinctive identity and be a place people can be proud of. The town centre will be an aspirational place with a wide variety of shops, cafes, bars restaurants, theatres, leisure, cultural and sports facilities alongside a quality residential offer.'

First scrimmage report for football
seems like Hansen is running with the ones, Hirschman the twos, and Burnette the threes, which is how I hope it plays out. Lots of throws to the tight ends, and Rippy and Obi leading the way on defense. Glad to see Rippy blow up.

Having just purchased a somewhat smaller house in a somewhat more desirable neighborhood, I know I'm going to have to adjust for the tighter living quarters. I will do my best to remember I could have been living in London in the World's Smallest Apartment, a former closet that has been converted into a cozy 62 square foot kitchenette, bath(ette) and bedroom(ette). (via growabrain)
If you tire of the cramped apartment lifestyle, may I interest you in fulfilling your dream of owning your own home? Sure, it may be the smallest in Great Britain, but you could make mortgage payments by charging admission!
Don't feel like venturing across The Big Pond®? For the low, low price of $2 per mile from his shop in Sebastopol, California, Jay Shafer of Tumbleweed Houses will build and ship a house to you! Check out this little... really, really little 6'X8' beaut!
Other real ecstatic gems include Europe's Narrowest House being out-narrowed by the World's Narrowest House.

Medication compounding is the art of preparing customized medications that dates back to the origins of pharmacy. Working with your physician, Greenbrier Medical Arts Pharmacy still practices the time proven art of compounding to prepare unique medications. "We use only the highest quality active ingredients and state-of-the-art technology to customize the strength and dosage form of a medication according to individual needs," said Rob Londeree, lead compounding pharmacist at Greenbrier Medical Arts Pharmacy. "Quality control is essential," said Londeree.
Whatever the request, quantity or delivery schedule, our compounding services can enhance virtually any area of medicine including natural hormone replacement therapy, children's dosage forms and flavors, capsule and suppository preparations, changing medications from pill form to penetrating skin cream, lip balms, medicated lozenges, eye and eardrops, and even veterinary, sports medicine and dental compounding.
Through custom
compounding, Greenbrier
Medical Arts Pharmacy can
assist physicians and sports
trainers in alleviating many
complaints caused by sports
With special compounded
medicines, we make it easy to treat:
Many patients may benefit from direct topical application
of a medication to an affected area. We can place the
needed medication and numbing agents into the dosage
form of your choice, such as:
Compounding is most useful with children because
commercially manufactured drugs are often not
the best solution for kids. There are several ways
we can help pediatric patients:
Compounded preparations are prepared by licensed
pharmacists and compounding pharmacies that operate under
stringent state and federal laws and regulations. Compounded
medications are not reviewed by the FDA or State Boards of
Pharmacy for safety and efficacy and they are not approved by
the FDA for any indication. Compounded medications do not
contain FDA reviewed education inserts in the packaging that
may explain usage, contraindications, warnings, precautions,
adverse reactions and drug incompatibilities. Health care
professionals should also take appropriate steps to educate
their patients when a compounded preparation is prescribed.
Additionally, the patient should be advised that the
compounded preparation is provided based upon the medical
need of the individual patient. Insurance coverage for compounded prescriptions varies by carrier. Please consult the staff regarding possible coverage.
