Chromosomal abnormalities are a group of conditions that are the result of a problem with one of the 23 pairs of chromosomes. Chromosomes are the structures within the body's cells that contain genes. Normally, people have 23 pairs of chromosomes. For each of these pairs, one chromosome comes from the mother and the other chromosome comes from the father. But, an abnormality can affect any chromosome, including the sex chromosomes.
Usually, people have two sex chromosomes. Females have two X chromosomes (XX) and males have one X and one Y chromosome (XY).
A chromosomal abnormality can affect the number of chromosomes, the structure of certain chromosomes, or the composition of chromosomes. If the material found in chromosomes is balanced so that the expected amount is found in each cell, no abnormalities occur. If that balance is upset, chromosomal abnormalities occur and can cause a wide range of abnormalities, usually birth defects or death of the embryo or fetus before birth.
Down syndrome (trisomy 21) is the most common and best known chromosomal abnormality. It is a trisomy condition, where there is an extra, third chromosome rather than just the standard two.
With Down syndrome, physical and mental development is delayed. Infants with Down syndrome tend to be quiet and passive with somewhat limp muscles. Most children with Down syndrome have a lower than average IQ. Children with Down syndrome tend to have a small head, a broad, flat face with slanting eyes and a short nose. The tongue is large and their ears are small and set low in the head. The hands are short and broad, with a single crease across the palm.
About half of all children with Down syndrome have heart defects and many develop thyroid disease . They are also prone to hearing and vision problems.
Down syndrome can be diagnosed before birth. Your physician may be able to recognize some of the distinctive physical characteristics of an infant with Down syndrome during an ultrasound. The diagnosis is confirmed by testing the infant's chromosomes for trisomy 21 or other disorders of the 21st chromosome. After the diagnosis is made, doctors use further tests to detect abnormalities associated with Down syndrome.
Most children with Down syndrome survive to adulthood. Life expectancy for a child with Down syndrome is about 45-55 years old. IQ levels and educational/vocational achievement vary greatly. Many, but not all, have progressively worsening mental functioning and develop early-onset dementia (similar to Alzheimer's disease ). Heart abnormalities are often treatable with drugs or surgery. Heart disease and leukemia account for most deaths among children with Down syndrome.
Fragile X syndrome is the next most commonly diagnosed genetic cause of intellectual disability after Down syndrome. The symptoms of fragile X syndrome are caused by abnormalities in DNA on the X chromosome. Usually, the condition is passed down to affected children by their mothers.
Many children with the syndrome have normal intelligence. The severity of symptoms, including intellectual disability, is worse in boys than in girls with the disorder. Fragile X results in delayed development, large, protuberant ears, a prominent chin and forehead, and, in boys, large testes, which is most apparent after puberty. The joints may be abnormally flexible, and heart disease (mitral valve prolapse) may occur. Features of autism may develop. Women may experience menopause in their mid 30s.
The presence of abnormal DNA on the fragile X chromosome can be detected by tests before or after birth. The greater the number of abnormal repetitions of DNA found, the more likely the child will have symptoms.
Klinefelter syndrome is a disorder in which male infants are born with an extra X chromosome (XXY). While most boys with Klinefelter syndrome have normal or slightly decreased intelligence, many have speech and reading disabilities and difficulties with planning. Most also have problems with language skills. Early problems with language may lead to problems with social interactions that affect behavior. Although physical characteristics can vary greatly, most boys with the condition are tall with long arms but otherwise normal in appearance.
Puberty usually occurs at the normal time, but the testes remain small. At puberty, growth of facial hair is minimal, and the breasts may enlarge somewhat. Men and boys with the syndrome are usually infertile. Men with Klinefelter syndrome develop diabetes mellitus , chronic lung disease, varicose veins , hypothyroidism , and breast cancer more often than other men.
The syndrome usually is not suspected until puberty when most of the symptoms develop. Chromosomal analysis confirms the diagnosis.
Klinefelter's Syndrome

In Turner syndrome, girls are born with one of the two X chromosomes partially or completely missing.
Many newborns with Turner syndrome have swelling on the backs of their hands and tops of their feet. Swelling or loose folds of skin are often evident on the back of the neck. Many other abnormalities often develop, including a webbed neck, a low hairline at the back of the neck, a broad chest with wide-spaced nipples, and poorly developed nails.
As a girl with Turner syndrome gets older, she has no menstrual periods and the breasts, vagina, and labia remain childlike rather than undergoing the changes of puberty. The ovaries usually do not contain developing eggs. A girl or woman with Turner syndrome is almost always short, and obesity is common.
Other disorders often develop, such as:
Many girls with Turner syndrome have difficulty in assessing visual and spatial relationships and have problems with planning and attention. They tend to score poorly on certain performance tests and in mathematics, even if they achieve average or above-average scores on verbal intelligence tests. Intellectual disability is uncommon.
Noonan syndrome can be inherited or can develop unpredictably in children whose parents have normal genes. Although children with the syndrome have normal chromosomal structure, they have many characteristics typical of Turner syndrome . In the past, Noonan syndrome was called "male Turner syndrome." But, both boys and girls can be affected with this condition, which is caused by a gene on chromosome 12.
Symptoms may include webbing of the neck, low-set ears, droopy eyelids, short stature, shortened ring fingers, a high-arched palate, heart and blood vessel abnormalities, and impaired intelligence. Most affected people are short. Boys may have underdeveloped or undescended testes. In girls, the ovaries may be underactive or stop working. Puberty may be delayed, and infertility is possible.
Triple X syndrome is the most common chromosomal abnormality in females. It occurs when the female inherits three X chromosomes instead of the normal two. Because females with this disorder either have mild or no symptoms at all, it is believed that there are a lot of cases that go undiagnosed. Those with with symptoms of triple X syndrome tend to have slightly lower intelligence and problems with verbal skills. They also may have:
Sometimes the syndrome causes infertility . But, some women with triple X syndrome have given birth to physically normal children with normal chromosomes.
Extremely rare cases of infants with four or even five X chromosomes have been identified. The more X chromosomes the girl has, the greater the chance of intellectual disability and physical abnormalities.
XYY syndrome is a disorder in which a male infant is born with an extra Y chromosome.
Boys with XYY syndrome tend to be tall and have difficulties with language. Their IQ tends to be slightly lower than that of their family members. Many experience learning disabilities, attention deficit disorder , and minor behavioral disorders. The XYY syndrome was once thought to cause aggressive or violent criminal behavior, but this theory has been disproved.
These are just a few of the conditions that result from chromosomal abnormalities. Talk to your healthcare provider if you are concerned about unusual symptoms in your child.

Sanity is madness put to good use. – George Santayana
When I was a sweet young thing, I didn't know anything about the dating game. I was naïve when it came to the affairs of the heart. Oddly enough, now that I'm an old, married lady, young people frequently ask me for dating advice. I learn through observation. Here are some things I've learned over the years by observing doctors.
Tell Your Date You See Dead People.
When I lived in Chicago, I worked with a very handsome, young, psychiatrist. He was well dressed, well spoken, and a complete gentleman. His package included soulful brown eyes, a dazzling smile, and rock hard abs, and yet, he couldn't find anyone who would go out with him. I asked him why he couldn't find a date, and he said that while women love the idea of going out with a doctor, they don't want to hang out with a psychiatrist. He said that women were more afraid of him getting inside their head than inside their pants.
A few months later I noticed my favorite psychiatrist was glowing when he walked on to the unit. He told me about his new girlfriend. When I asked him for the details, he said that before he asked her out, he told her he was a funeral director. He said she was creeped-out and didn't pressure him for information about his line of work, and that they had a great time on their date. When he confessed his sins, and told her about his true occupation, she said she would rather go out with a shrink than with an undertaker.
Never Date a Married Woman Whose Husband Has a Gun Rack Mounted on His Pickup Truck.
When I worked in Southern Illinois, I knew a doctor who was a notorious womanizer. He never met a woman he wouldn't bed. One day a raging husband of one of his conquests appeared at the doctor's office. Apparently, the doctor had made a "house call" when the woman's husband was at work, and one of his business cards had fallen out of his pocket on to the bedroom floor. The husband parked his pickup, complete with a gun rack, in the clinic parking lot. An office nurse noted the truck's "optional equipment," and called the police. As the husband was being lead off in handcuffs for disorderly conduct, the doctor apologized to him in front of a waiting room full of astonished patients.
Don't be a Stupid Lounge Lizard. If You're Married, Take Your Date to a Place Where People Don't Know You.
When I was young, single, and free back in the glory days of Disco, I liked to hang out with my nurse-girl-posse at the local watering hole. One night when we were out, I saw a man on the dance floor who looked vaguely familiar, but I could place where we had met. He was wearing a bright orange silk shirt, brown polyester bellbottoms, and layers of gold chains around his neck. His stomach protruded over his belt buckle and his shirt was unbuttoned, revealing a thick rug of curly hair on his chest. He was with a woman I didn't know. As I sat staring at the man and his date, one of my friends gasped, and then started laughing so hard she couldn't catch her breath. The lounge lizard was a psychiatrist at our hospital, and his date WASN'T his wife. The doctor claimed he had an open marriage, but his wife didn't agree. She filed for divorce. The doctor's ex-wife received all of the marital assets and Dr. Disco got the shaft. Party on!

Oh oh, the time line has me worried. In today's installment, you talk about time in Chicago, time in Southern Illinois, and an incident during the "glory days of disco." Were you in Chicago during the "glory days of disco"?
Not that I have anything for which to reproach myself during those years… no, nothing at all….
October 18th, 2006 at 5:01 am
good life stories! Nurses rule! lol… why choose any other career when one can be IN all those great soaps full of drama, sex, violence, drugs and night shifts? I guess unless you are Nurse Ratched reincarnate (and we all know they're out there, cloned, miserable, ready to get even…). No, seriously, i enjoy your perspective. Keep it up.
October 18th, 2006 at 11:06 am
I love it! Such sage advice, and terrifically practical, to boot. I have one to add, though: The girl who babysits your children is off-limits under all circumstances. I know a father who lingered when he drove the babysitter home. A few months later he was forced to find a new babysitter and a new wife after the first sitter revealed her mysterious pregnancy…ewww!
October 18th, 2006 at 1:46 pm
You crack me up! Loved the shrink story. I've been RNing for many full moons and have met *one* normal psychiatrist, Russ. When he shows up we start out with a 30 minute group therapy session in the Nurses station. Free therapy! Another employment benefit.

Love the painting.
October 19th, 2006 at 12:17 am
LOL! Great anecdotes that still hold true!
Part of the reason why I choose not to date and have remained contentedly divorced.
October 19th, 2006 at 4:04 pm
Where were you when I needed you!
Loved it!
November 14th, 2006 at 5:07 pm
Now I think I'm going down to the well tonight
and I'm going to drink till I get my fill
And I hope when I get old I don't sit around thinking about it
but I probably will
Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture
a little of the glory of, well time slips away
and leaves you with nothing mister but
boring stories of…..
Glory days (of disco)!
Except your stories aren't boring, I just couldn't get this verse our of my head! LOL

UPDATED: Thursday, October 25, 2012 --- 4:53p.m.
Release from Department of Justice:
Madison, Wis. - John W. Vaudreuil, United States Attorney for the Western District of Wisconsin, announced that Daniel Kundert, 22, of Monroe, Wis., was sentenced today by U.S. District Judge William Conley to 70 months in prison for stealing guns from Hunting Woodlands in Monroe, a business which was federally licensed to sell firearms. This prison term will be followed by three years of supervised release. Kundert pleaded guilty to this charge on August 30, 2012.
On May 17, 2010, Kundert rode his bike to the business. He cut the phone wire and threw a brick through the window to see if police would respond prior to entering the building. When he determined that no police would respond, he entered the business and stole five firearms. To date, four of the five guns have been recovered.
Kundert traded one of the guns for oxycontin pills. He used another one of the guns to commit an armed robbery and steal oxycontin pills.
In sentencing Kundert, Judge Conley acknowledged Kundert's drug addiction but also noted his "astounding" criminal history, the seriousness of the offenses, and that Kundert squandered opportunities for drug treatment.
The charges against Kundert were the result of an investigation conducted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives; Monroe Police Department; Green County Sheriff's Department; and Madison Police Department. The prosecution
of the case has been handled by Assistant U.S. Attorney Elizabeth Altman.
Posted Thursday, April 19, 2012 --- 6:20 a.m.
From the Department of Justice:
Daniel Kundert, 22, Monroe, Wis., is charged with stealing five firearms from a Monroe business which is federally-licensed to sell firearms.
The indictment alleges that on May 17, 2010, Kundert stole a rifle and four pistols from Hunting Woodlands.
If convicted, Kundert faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in federal prison.
The charge against him is the result of an investigation by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives; Monroe Police Department; Green County Sheriff's Department; and Madison Police Department.
The prosecution of this case has been assigned to Assistant U.S. Attorney Elizabeth Altman.

When it comes to preparing weeknight dinners, sometimes the need for speed is evident. I don't always have an hour or two to concoct a dinner creation in my kitchen. Therefore, I love finding new products that are easy to work with and make meal prep a breeze!
This week, the crew at Sunday Supper was lucky enough to sample a brand new item from Land O'Lakes – the Sauté Express® Sauté Starter! I'd seen some commercials lately, but this was my first time using the product itself. I regularly use Land O'Lakes butter in my kitchen, so I was confident that the product would be great. Can I just start right off with this: I was quite impressed!
All you have to do is simply toss a Sauté Express® square in a non-stick sauté pan on medium-low heat until it begins to bubble and sizzle. You can add fresh chicken, pork, shrimp, or fish and sauté in less than 30 minutes for a fast and delicious meal. I didn't believe it until I actually tried it. The Sauté Express® is packaged with individual cubes that are pre-portioned, containing butter, olive oil, herbs, and spices. As soon as I opened the package of Garlic and Herb saute starter, I was impressed with how great it smelled. I couldn't wait to get started.
When I say this recipe is quick to prepare, I am NOT lying. I literally started a timer as soon as I had my ingredients in front of me (not even cut or prepared yet) and I was plating this dish right at the 15 minute mark. Seriously. It might take you a bit longer if you prefer to prepare ingredients separately, but if you are confident with boiling pasta, sauteing chicken in a pan, and steaming vegetables in the microwave all at once I know you can be done in the same amount of time as me! A delicious, flavorful dinner in literally 15 minutes? I dare you to give me the excuse that you don't have time to prepare a meal! I love that I can use Sauté Express® on those nights when I just feel like throwing something together…but still have it taste like I spent a long time in the kitchen!
I used the Garlic & Herb variety of Sauté Express® for my recipe, but you could really use any of the flavors depending on your taste (it is available in four flavors: Garlic & Herb, Italian Herb, Savory Butter & Olive Oil and Lemon Pepper)! When you toss all of the ingredients together, the noodles, chicken, and vegetables are perfectly coated – they aren't heavy but are packed with flavor. Also, you could really mix up the vegetable ingredients in this pasta toss if you prefer different items: make it your own! I served up this pasta dish with a simple spring mix and arugula salad tossed with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and a few cracks of pepper. So easy!
Make sure to visit SauteExpress.com for meal ideas and tips. You can also find Land O'Lakes on Facebook, on Twitter @LandOLakesKtchn, on Pinterest, and on Instagram.
BUT WAIT! I'm not done just yet! Land O'Lakes was kind enough to provide me with a coupon for a free package of Sauté Express® to give away to one of my readers in the USA! Scroll down to the Rafflecopter widget below the recipe to enter.
Do you have any time saving kitchen products that you love?
Serves 2
2 Sauté Express® Garlic and Herb squares
1 large chicken breast, cut into strips
1 cup red bell pepper, diced
3 cups broccoli florets
2 cups uncooked pasta (I used rotini)
2 tablespoons chicken stock or chicken broth
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1. Heat a large nonstick pan over medium low heat. Add 1 square of Sauté Express® and wait until it begins to bubble and sizzle in the pan. Add the chicken breast slices and saute for 5-6 minutes until cooked through.
2. Meanwhile, fill a stock pot with water for the pasta and heat over high on the stove until boiling. Add a pinch of salt and the 2 cups of uncooked pasta. Cook according to package directions, then strain the noodles and set aside.
3. As the chicken and pasta are cooking, add the broccoli and red pepper to a microwave safe container (preferably a vegetable steaming container) with 1-2 tablespoons of water. Microwave on high for 2 minutes, then drain the container of excess water. Set aside.
4. When the chicken strips are cooked through, add the chicken stock/chicken broth to the pan. If any of the Sauté Express® has stuck to the pan, the chicken stock will release it. Then, add the second cube of Sauté Express® to the pan and allow it to melt.
5. Toss the steamed vegetables to the pan and stir a few times to combine. Then, add the drained pasta noodles to the pan and stir to combine. Sprinkle with the parmesan cheese and continue tossing the pasta for a minute or two to allow the flavors to incorporate. Serve while hot – enjoy!

The pilot reported that, before departure, he attached a 3-foot by 4-foot American flag to the landing skids of the helicopter. Following an uneventful takeoff, he climbed to an altitude of about 200 feet above ground level. Shortly thereafter, the flag disconnected from the skids and impacted the tail rotor. The pilot initiated an autorotation to a nearby field. Examination of the helicopter by the pilot revealed that about half of the tail boom and tail rotor assembly had separated. The pilot reported that before the flag separated, no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures with the helicopter existed that would have precluded normal operation.

EL PASO, TX — If you're looking to winterize your home this winter, the Better Business Bureau has a check list for consumers.
Start out by looking for products that carry the NFRC or National Fenestration Rating Council label.
Get a reputable contractor and reputable materials.
You can check bbb.org to find a contractor you can trust.
U-Factor ratings generally fall between 0.20 and 1.20.

Spectacular Fingerling Potatoes
My children absolutely love these tender "mini" potatoes. Fingerling potatoes can be found at the farmers market and specialty grocery stores, though Yukon Gold would work, too.
5 Servings
Prep/Total Time: 30 min.
1 pound fingerling potatoes
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Preheat oven to 425°. Place potatoes in a large saucepan and
cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook 10
minutes. Drain. Transfer to a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan.
Combine the remaining ingredients; drizzle over potatoes and toss to
Bake, uncovered, 8-10 minutes or until tender, stirring once. Yield:
5 servings.

- Saturday night at ChablisOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 10/25/2014The food and service are great. They have a jazz combo that is very good, but they play their music way too loud. You know it is too loud when you cannot talk to the person across the table from you.Special Features:

- A gem of a restaurant!happyVIPDined on 10/8/2014Fabulous food, great presentation....great for a special night out. Also, great restaurant to have bridal, baby showers on Sundays. The main room holds up to 70 people! A smaller room is also available.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice ambiance and vibe. Decent foodChewie83Dined on 10/2/2014My fiance and I had an enjoyable evening at this establishment. The lighting, noise level and crowd was perfect for a romantic evening with that special someone. The live music (a solo guitar player) was a nice touch. Our server was nice and the bussing of tables were right on the spot. Food was so-so. Crab cakes had a piece of shell in it. Scallops were good. My fiance's chicken milanese had slightly soggy breading. And they cooked my steak at a medium than medium well. Small gripes but they add up.Special Features:

- Anniversary was specialH1tastes9Dined on 9/7/2014We had never been before & so glad we went! Excellent food! One of the best steaks I've ever had. The owner made us feel welcomed & was attentive to our needs. I had mentioned it was our wedding anniversary when I made the reservations & we got extra special attention.Special Features:
- valleymomVIPDined on 9/6/2014One of my favorite places. Always delicious food, although this time the steak was not as tender as I would have liked, but the flavor was delicious. The ambience is unhurried and relaxed. We went on a Saturday night and the music was loud enough but not intrusive. It set a lovely mood.Special Features:

- Always enjoy it!DinerInTarzanaVIPDined on 8/10/2014Chablis is one of our favorite restaurants. The service is always helpful, the dining room has a wonderful atmosphere, and the wine selection is great. Tonight we took some out of town guests to enjoy the atmosphere, food, and wine and asked the Maitre D to select a well balanced red wine for the table. He came through with a very nice Pinot Noir, which impressed our guests immeasurably. Highly recommended!Special Features:
- NoisyBrendeVIPDined on 8/8/2014Came here Friday night about 7:30pm. Seated in front under lower ceiling as didn't want to be close to music but still very noisy, two tables near us very loud and lingered making it very difficult to hear my spouse......waitress overburdened with too many diners, food over all very good, when it finally arrived but will not return on a weekend!
- Hidden gem?Brooklyn2LADined on 8/6/2014We had a very nice waitress but we could tell that she was fairly new. The menu has so many great dishes that we will be going back to taste them all. Overall Chablis is a great find but still needs polishing to be that neighborhood gem.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- The following 325 reviews are from the Chablis Food + Wine reviews archive.
- Never again!angeljoanDined on 7/29/2014When we arrived for our 1pm reservation, no one came to greet us. My friend had a duck bone in his duck confit grilled cheese sandwich. The waiter never said, "I'm sorry about that." Instead he said, "It's a duck bone"--duh! He said they would give my friend a free dessert. But because they cut our "outside" birthday cake into 7 pieces, the waiter said he wouldn't charge the "cutting charge" and that would take the place of the free dessert--how cheesy was that! I ordered the short rib sandwich which I had twice before and LOVED. This time, it was disappointing! Oh, and we had to wait FOREVER to get our food. And there was NO ONE ELSE in the restaurant at that point. There wasn't enough good to make up for the bad. Never again!
- OpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 7/19/2014The food was very good, as usual, and Lydia is still the best server in the Valley. What was not acceptable and what ruined the evening for us was the hour and a quarter it took for the food to be prepared. If this happens again, this wonderful restaurant will lose two of its most faithful regulars.Special Features:
- Waiting foreverSloanefamDined on 7/19/2014While the food was certainly tasty, we were seated at 7:30 and weren't served our main course until close to 8:45. Since no one was having salad or appetizers we feel this was far too long of a wait. Waitress said they were having trouble in the kitchen!!! We won't be going back!
- What a disappointmentYasmineVIPDined on 7/15/2014I've been to Chablis several times & always loved it. This experience was so poor, I'm never going back. First, one patron brought her dog (they allow dogs?!) and the dog was allowed to run around on the chairs & eat off the patron's dish. Disgusting! I love dogs, but that's taking it too far...especially for a nice restaurant. Second, our waitress Darlene was terrible. Her personality was cold and unfriendly + she was very slow. Should mention...the restaurant was empty. There were only 2 other tables occupied! Goodbye Chablis.
- yummyeaterDined on 7/13/2014went there for a family dinner, couldn't resist trying many of the small plates, all were so good. we all ordered entrees as well and were too full. won't order so much next time. the service was slow in the beginning, surprising as only a few tables were filled. once our server got past the drink orders, things went better. the risotto, eggplant roulade were delicious. the halibut was good but unevenly cooked, one end was dry. will definitely go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- foodlover2Dined on 7/11/2014Excellent food. Very consistent and never disappointing. Good wine selection and friendly and intelligent service.Special Features:
- GREAT FOOD!!teachermom1954VIPDined on 6/21/2014This was my first time at Chablis but my sister and brother in law have eaten here before. I let them pick and they picked well. Really enjoyed my whole meal!!Special Features:
- Good food - but slow serviceFoodieDined on 6/21/2014I had a 7pm reservation last Saturday. There were many people seated inside the dining room, but I had reserved a table on the patio outside where it was quieter. The patio sits between two buildings and is sparsely decorated, so don't expect too much ambiance outside, but it is comfortable and quiet. I ordered the short rib mushroom ragout/crispy polenta/roasted tomato/ blue cheese crumbs from the small plate menu and my guest had the sea bass. The food was very tasty, and the presentation was appealing, however our food arrived almost one and a half hours after we put in the order. Too bad. I liked the vibe here but unless you have a long time set aside for dinner you may want to look elsewhere.Special Features:
- local gemSandyDined on 6/21/2014We had an excellent meal with very good service. Lots of food choices.Special Features:
- A Very Nice PlaceSNRDADDined on 6/20/2014We had an enjoyable time. I look forward to going back.Special Features:
- Top Notch FoodItalianFoodieDined on 6/15/2014I recently made a reservation at Chablis to celebrate Father's Day with my husband and children. I was a little concerned when we had been sitting at our table for 10 minutes with no waiter and no menus. I finally got up and found some menus for us. After that, the service was slow and sporadic. It seemed like they just one waitress for the entire restaurant! When she did appear, she was very friendly. But the food more than made up for the slow service. We had the filet mignon, spicy shrimp and scallop appetizer. All were absolutely fantastic. My father is a chef, so I was raised on great food and am hard to please. I will definitely be back to Chablis!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Love ChablisOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 6/15/2014We love this place. It is great for a romantic outing but if you have to bring the little ones that is ok too. They are willing to split a dish or just make a simple pasta. Our 6 year old girls loved the carrot soup and Sea Bass. You can choose from their wine list or bring your own bottle if you wish.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great! 4 of us loved itCheckerdShirtDined on 6/14/2014We had a reservation for 4 at 7:45. Walked in it was all a buzz, all tables filled...had to wait about 45 mins...but that was o.k. as not in a hurry. Small bar area. Great combo playing music. We look for places that we can meet, as we are in Burbank, our dining partners in Westlake...so this was a perfect spot. Split the ahi stack, for starter, had delicious bread. The food was slow coming out, but well worth the wait. We had a terrific waitress that made it a memorable evening. Salads were great...Salmon fantastic, peppercorn steak, not a bite left, crab cake small bite was perfect and enough for a meal with a Caesar Salad. Crème Brule to die for. Will definitely do again and have already recommended to friends.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- suprisingly disappointedJanNoelDined on 6/14/2014I hate to write this as we have been here at least 8 times and have always been impressed. Usually their food is great. We raved and raved about this place to two food experts we had just recently met and invited them to dinner, our treat. I'm sad to report all 4 dishes were just "OK". Both couples split salads and I was kind of shocked that they came out with maybe 3 shreds of lettuce on each plate. I let this pass as the quality "usually" makes up for it. But the quality was also lacking. I almost always get the tenderloin & shrimp, which I've always enjoyed. This time the meat was full of fat and the shrimp way overcooked. In their defense they did have a large party of maybe 25 outside. So we're hoping that was the cause. Sorry.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 6/13/2014food was good...only one other diner at 12:30 on a friday afternoon...a couple of men at the bar watching a game and cheering loudly...not a good dining experience.
- Charming restaurantAlwayshungryVIPDined on 6/7/2014What a delightful surprise! Good to very good food. Full bar. Excellent service. Live excellent music. Even a little room for dancing. Highly recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Tarzana gem!FoodFitDined on 5/31/2014Wonderful ambiance, live music and very good food. Our dinner was delightful and the service was great. Will definitely be going back; one of the nicest places to eat in the San Fernando Valley!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- LaurelCanyonGirlVIPDined on 5/28/2014Second time dining at Chablis -- food is traditional with a wide variety of appetizer and entree choices. Service is efficient, knowledgeable and friendly, and it's a lovely place to sit and chat with friends.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Birthday bashLuv91361lakeDined on 5/13/2014We dined there for my daughter's birthday celebration. The food was terrific. Everyone cleaned their plates. The ahi tuna tower was a perfect appetizer to share and very quite a hit. The clientele were all on the mature side so I assume they were long time customers. My 20 something group were impressed and will most likely return on their own.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Mother's Day GemDiner1Dined on 5/11/2014Early dining was wonderful, because it was quiet, you could hear each other talk and hear the music. Our waiter was wonderful. Lovely evening!Special Features:
- Lunch is easyTravelingGalDined on 5/7/2014I always go here for lunch with business associates because the food is excellent, you can linger to talk, and the noise level is low. Definitely a neighborhood gem.Special Features:
- Negative dining experiencexperienceddinerDined on 5/2/2014We had been to Chablis before and the food and service were better than average, but this last experience with a party of 12 left us all saying we would never go back. Three fish dinners had a strong "old" fishy taste and the waiter made an excuse that it was our sense of taste that was the issue. Our server could not have been less interested in our dinner party throughout the night. Overall, it was a negative dining experience.
- Excellent diningMichaelDined on 4/19/2014Had another lovely evening at Chablis. The place was hopping on Saturday night. dinner was first class. Our waitress was very attentive, and the service was excellent. Drinks were tasty and came out quickly. Again, we are totally satisfied. Recommend this restarurant to anyone looking to have a fine meal in an excellent athmosphere.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Written by Andy Newman, firstname.lastname@example.com Friday, 19 April 2013 00:00
Rob Weingard, a Sands Point resident and former Hofstra basketball star, is critical of the direction that youth sports has taken in this country and feels strongly that his Scottie Workouts basketball program, held twice a week in the Doctors' Gym at the Landmark on Main street, is the right way to work with youngsters.
"Unfortunately it's all about chasing scholarships, " Weingard explained. "A lot of things are being done at the beginning that is not good for our kids. They play in too many sports, too many teams but we don't teach enough. You can play on 15 teams but that doesn't mean you're taught anything."
"There are 40 million kids playing sports in this country," he continued. "And there are a million adults coaching. Nowadays youth sports are too much parents vs. parents. It's become 'we need to win' and I think we need to develop. Less than two percent of athletes get a college scholarship. Children are given unrealistic goals by adults and there's too much pressure. It's that emphasis on winning at a young age that throws me off the most. Many people treat this whole sports thing as a minor league team for pro sports and it makes no sense."
Weingard's program for boys and girls runs on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. There are two sessions each night that last an hour and it's open to 3rd through 8th graders. Group size is just ten children and there are fall, spring and summer sessions. Weingard started the program four years ago. "I thought it would be nice to teach Port kids the right way to learn," he explained. The program has become so popular because of Weingard's approach that there are now waiting lists.
"I think an hour of shooting, passing and dribbling is the correct length of time," he said. "I watch every kid. We do a lot of running too. We teach accordingly. The advanced kids do the same skills as the not so advanced kids."
Scottie Workouts is named after his brother, Scott Weingard, who died in the 9/11 attacks while working for Cantor Fitzgerald. Rob established the Scott Weingard Memorial Fund ten years ago and has raised over $7 million. The Fund has contributed to Sloane Kettering, Autism Speaks and has established a scholarship fund in perpetuity at the University of Michigan, Scott's alma mater.
During the clinic, Weingard, who led the nation in assists in 1985 with 280 at Hofstra and won a Gold Medal at the Maccabiah Games in Israel that summer, is in constant motion giving each player individual attention. "I watch every kid's layup, I watch every kid's shot, I watch every kid's dribble," he said. "And I'm making comments accordingly."
Weingard's passion about teaching youth sports has inspired him to create a documentary film about his philosophy, which he hopes to have finished in the next two months. Three Teams follows the 2010-2011 basketball season in which Rob coached three youth groups. "It's a youth sports story watching me coach my three kids' teams and what you see is what happens in every town, every community and every youth sport," said Weingard.
The film also features interviews with youth sports experts, including Rick Wolff, nationally recognized as the top authority on sports parenting. Weingard, who also has his own garment center business, hopes to interest PBS, ESPN, Nickelodeon and the trade show circuit in showing his film.

Buffalo Before Breakfast (1999)
by Mary Pope Osborne
Compact | Rate recommendations
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I really liked this book for a couple different reasons. The text features were how Jack would read some information about the Great Plains and then he would summarize that information in a notebook. They had handwriting in the book to show what he was summarizing. This helped relate actual history to this fictional story. For example the book had 2 sentences of history about the Great Plains. And then three lines below that in Jack's handwriting it said "Great Plains- lots of land". This helps give the students background knowledge when reading the book. I also really liked the book because the sentences were short. They were easy to read and kept me engaged the whole time. it kept the action moving and made the reader think "what next?" lastly, I liked that at the end of the book they went into further explanation about the legend of the White Buffalo Woman. This is a Lakota legend that has been passed down and after mentioning it in the book they put the legend at the end of the story for the students to read. Also there are more facts about the Lakota Indians, the Great Plains and how buffalo were such a great resources for the Native Americans. The big idea in this text was teaching students to be brave. Jack and Annie showed great bravery when going back to the Great Plains. This book also had themes of teamwork. Jack and Annie had to work together to help Black Hawk get away from the buffalo. This was a great book and it makes me want to read more of the Magic Tree House series.
This book is themed around the Lakota Indians, time travel, and the great plains. I would use this book in my teaching as a read aloud book to my students. I like this particular series of books because they are full of suspense and are fun to read. I would recommend this book to children in grades 1-3.
I picked this book up expecting to feel brain cells dying as I read it. I was very wrong; I can see why my students enjoy this series so much. It's very well written (albeit extremely simplistic) and interesting. It was an extremely quick read and is educational, to boot!
This book is about two kids who is trying to figure out these five riddles to make the dog spell come undone. They have already figured out two out of five and so much closer of getting the dog spell undone.
You should read this book because it is a good book if u like mystery books. You should also read this book because it would be something fun to do when you have some free time. Like if you need a couple of books to do then read one of these books. They're really intresting and really good.
Critique: This is a great example of science fiction book because Jack and Annie use a tree house to travel through time. In this particular book in the series the visit the Lakota people and learn about buffalo.
Setting: This is a good example of an integral setting because without the time travel back to the time of the Lakota people in the plains you would have no story line. The introduction includes them walking through the grasses and then again at the end. It is a very distinct picture, characteristic of the time, place and people. The story would not be the same without this setting.
Level: Intermediate

Mother of boy who died of flu retains lawyer
Updated On: Feb 12 2013 11:45:33 AM EST
The mother of a 4-year-old who died of the flu late last year has retained an attorney to help her get answers to why her son could die three days after first showing symptoms.
"He started getting sick December 20th and ... December 23rd he passed away," Amanda Arthur said. "So he went from being perfectly healthy, active 4-year-old to three days later, dying in the hospital."
Doctors say Ryan Arthur died of complications of influenza B -- Jacksonville's first pediatric flu death of the season.
The Centers for Disease Control says 59 children have died from the influenza in the United States since the fall.
His mother, Amanda Arthur, said she took him to Wolfson Children's Hospital because of a combination of his high fever and "a mother's instinct." She says doctors gave him a breathing treatment and some steroids and sent him home.
Ryan continued to get worse, so she said she brought him back the next day, and he was admitted, but continued getting worse. She said but the time the results of the blood work were back, her only child was dead.
"You know, watching him turn blue ... just watching the whole thing replay in my head is just like a nightmare," Arthur said.
The autopsy report confirmed that Ryan had no major pre-existing conditions.
Arthur said she wanted to speak out so that her son would be remembered as more than a statistic, and she retained a lawyer because she isn't satisfied the hospital did everything it could.
"There should have been more done -- more testing," she said. "I feel strongly if they had started everything Friday night, you known, I think that he would be with me today."
Arthur admits she wasn't able to get her son a flu shot this year, but she he had always been healthy and knew about germs and keeping clean.
RELATED: Flu seriously affecting elderly
Her attorney said they are in the early stages of an investigation and they haven't decided if they'll file any kind of legal action against the hospital.
"Ryan's story is beyond tragic," attorney Janpaul Portel said. "Unfortunately, in this case, we don't know what happened."
Late Monday, Wolfson Children's Hospital released the following statement:
"Wolfson Children's Hospital is committed to providing compassionate, skilled, life-saving care to our young patients in a family-centered environment. It is very tragic when a child passes away due to severe illness, and we grieve any loss. This past December, a four-year-old boy named Ryan Arthur passed away despite constant medical care provided to him during his hospitalization at Wolfson Children's Hospital. Following his passing, physicians and Wolfson Children's Hospital staff met with Amanda Arthur twice, and she stated at the end of the second meeting that she had no other questions; yet, Wolfson staff once again offered to meet with Ms. Arthur at any if she had any other questions about Ryan. Wolfson Children's Hospital continues to express our deepest sympathy to Ms. Arthur for her loss.
"In our role as a child health advocate in our region, Wolfson Children's Hospital has worked with local media to discuss the importance of flu vaccine for anyone over the age of six months, good hand hygiene, proper coughing and sneezing etiquette, and other valuable disease prevention tips to educate parents and caregivers. We remain committed to helping families in our community by providing critically important information about child health and wellness."

Re: XPath statement for traversing a nested node struc
Kenny,If you are looking for a simple count of each object within a node(not a sum of objects that includes the table subnode), then both of these will work:
I will try your suggestion above. I am having problems with XPath based upon my nested xml file structure.
Is there a XPath expression that while I am traversing my nested xml input file I can determine how many OBJECT elements exist between each <TABLE> </TABLE> structure or <DPROW></DPROW>. With the nesting structure of my xml input file I can have tables nested within dprows and objects within each of those dprows.

Lady Gaga recovering after hip surgery
Lady Gaga's manager says the pop star is "doing unbelievable" a month after she had hip surgery that caused her to cancel her U.S. tour.
Vincent Herbert said in an interview Tuesday the 26-year-old Grammy winner is "doing wonderful, doing great."
Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Germanotta, canceled her "Born This Way Ball" tour last month.
She was supposed to play Detroit on Feb. 16.
In a statement Lady Gaga wrote:
"I am completely devastated and heartsick. I've been hiding this injury and pain from my staff for a month, praying it would heal, but after last night's performance I could not walk. To the fans in Chicago, Detroit and Hamilton, I hope you can forgive me as it is nearly impossible for me to forgive myself right now. I would do anything for you. I will hopefully heal as soon as possible and be at 500% again, which is what you deserve."
WATCH: Lady Gaga cancels tour dates in most histrionic fashion possible
Herbert says Gaga is finishing her new album, "ARTPOP," and is "ready to get back to work."
He calls the new album "very, very refreshing" and says the "Born This Way" singer continues to "push the envelope."
WATCH: Lady Gaga has five-hour meeting With Julian Assange
Herbert adds: "I can't wait for the world to hear her new music and see her come back healthy, strong and better than ever."

Title: No Regrets
Date: Nov 09, 2011
Gotta say I'm not easily pleased and I'm pretty used to people screwing up from orders to quality, however, no regrets here at all. This was the first halloween I ever got a real costume. I always winged it before mainly because I'm a bad planner. This year I had a killer party to go to which I found out a week before. Went online and loved the way I could browse and consider tons of costumes so easily. Picked out a few and then went to that huge Halloween store south of Union Square here in NYC figuring I might get a better deal. Wow, that place was mayhem and it was impossible to really browse costumes. Plus, to my surprise, the prices were a good deal higher than online even with shipping. I had figured that just buying it in a store would be cheaper saving on shipping. Even though this costume is definitely not cheap I wanted something good and in a hurry. I bought 2 of these for my buddy and me. We were definitely a hit at the party wielding our swords lol. Quality was surprisingly solid and nice. I had fears that after one night it would be ripped. Not at all. It looks perfectly new ready for next year. The bonus was that by wearing thermals underneath and this rocker wig I was toasty warm in the middle of that crazy ice storm we had! heheh -- They have this renaissance fair here in NYC maybe I'll go there wearing this. I know this is an incredibly good review -- something I never do -- and it probably looks like a fake one to ppl, but I must say I'm really satisfied. Oh delivery was prompt and it comes on a solid hanger with a great plastic zippered suit bag type thing. Really surprisingly amazing.

- First TimeAaron263Dined on 11/21/2014It was our first time to Eddie Merlot's. We decided late in the week to make reservations for a Friday night. Needless to say all the hype about the restaurant lived up to our our expectations. The food was awesome. The staff was professional and very courteous. We will definitely re visit as soon as possible.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- BKTWorthwhileDined on 11/19/2014Decor is nicely done and the noise level was quiet even with a fairly full dining area. Staff were attentive but not overly so. Food was superb. Prepared just as requested. Wine by the glass offerings could be improved. Very limited. Special occasion to celebrate a birthday. Eddie Merlot's does not make any small gesture of occasion. I'm not expecting wait staff to gather and sing but perhaps a small item.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Elegantly CasualLloydDined on 10/18/2014Fine dining in a comfortable atmosphere. The food and service are excellent, well worth the price. We live in Indianapolis, but actually prefer the ambiance of the Eddie Merlot's here in Louisville over the one back home. Even though it's rather expensive, EM's seems to always have a Special that seems very reasonable. On this occasion, we had the Sweetest Day special Surf 'n Turf, a 6-ounce Filet Mignon and a 10-ounce lobster tail. Both were excellently prepared, tender and tasty, and the price was better than I would have expected. They of course have an extensive wine list. We celebrate most of our special occasions at Eddie Merlot's, will definitely dine at this one again.Special Features:
- Great meallocalfoodieVIPDined on 10/15/2014I took my mom for a late mother's day celebration. She had the filet trio and enjoyed most of the preparations. The Oscar style was creamy and had a bad fishy taste to it. I had the filet and it was well prepared, but a little under seasoned. The Eddie's potatoes were good, but needed salt. My previous experiences have been better, but I still think this is a wonderful steakhouse. My server was excellent, very friendly and not too pushy.Special Features:

- Great Service!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/20/2014We were very impressed with the service we received from Michael and Noah. They were very pleasant and attentive! I loved the Meatloaf and my husband did as well. My husband ordered the 4oz filet, shrimp, sausage, and mashed potatoes and he was a little disappointed with that. The bread was delicious as well as the ceaser salad. Overall we were impressed by the great service though!Special Features:
- Trt it at least onceEyecon502Dined on 9/20/2014Though I have been here several times, I must admit that I am not a fan of chain restaurants like this. That being said, the food it quite good...but I still think I can cook just as good of a steak at home. Usually, I prefer to sit in the bar area, have some appetizers and enjoy their wine selection. This trip, my group had Trio of Medallions Steak Frites and the chicken. All in all a good meal. Started with the Caesar salad (yum!) and ended with the Bananas Foster for Two (10x Yum!) and carrot cake. No wine this trip :-(. Service was excellent as always.Special Features:

As a foodie, it was wonderful to see the whole package at Eddie Merlot's: tasty, innovative food options and impeccable service. Leo, the manager, and Heather, our server, are a great example of customer-focused service. Top-notch and personalized.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fabulous dining experience!OtodocVIPDined on 9/12/2014While looking for an upscale restaurant walking distance from the Palace Theatre, this popped up. Looking at the menu & reviews, it seemed a great choice. It was better than that, dead on perfect from start to finish! Dining as a couple, we shared a shrimp cocktail served over dry ice with homemade cocktail sauce that was amazing. I ordered a la carte & had the bison strip steak with a side of killer brussel sprouts. My wife ordered off the chefs creation list, having a mixed grill of sausages, filet & grilled shrimp for $29, including great garlic mashed potatoes. The house "Merlot" Merlot was a steal. The red velvet cupcake & mango sorbet with coffees finished the meal nicely. Great cheese plate choices also. A must visit restsurant!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Very disappointed!18yrsmarriedDined on 8/31/2014This was our first visit to the restaurant. The decor was great, and we had a nice table in the corner of the restaurant. However, our waiter was slightly rude and arrogant. Our wine was not chilled and we had to wait for it. I then had multiple fruit flies in my wine glass. Trying to enjoy our anniversary dinner was becoming difficult. We ordered our Chateaubriand medium well. It came out mooing! We sent it back and then came back charred! At this point, we were over the whole dinner. The over all food was mediocre. This restaurant came highly recommended, and we were extremely disappointed!

- 25th AnniversaryRumpole43Dined on 8/26/2014We were there for our anniversary. We did not announce it, they asked. We also explained that because of a medical condition I was required to be gluten-free. At the end of the meal the wait staff asked if we wanted to see a dessert menu. We said, Yes. A few minutes later the wait staff brought us complimentary anniversary desserts--Red Velvet cupcakes. Needless to say, I was disappointed. They quickly recovered and brought creme brulee. Other than that slip up our evening was perfect. In fact, the wait staff asked what temperature we wanted our meat entree. I said, 155-160 for the filet and it may have been the best filet I have ever had.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- 2/23/2014 dinning experienceScottandEdithDined on 8/23/2014Lobster bisque was flavorless. Mushrooms, side item, were also very bland. Bone in rib eye was over cooked. asked for medium rare-medium and it was medium well-well done. After dinner coffee was wonderful. The crème brulee was given to us due to the food quality and it was not edible. Tasted like plain vanilla pudding. My fiancée drinks Bud Light and they were out.
- Terrible ExperienceJenneypartyof4Dined on 8/23/2014Eddie Merlot's is my favorite restuarant!!!! celebrate all special occasions there and entertain all clients/business partners. It is my go-to when my husband and I need a night out. I will seriously re-think that after my experience Saturday night. It was the WORST service I have recieved from a fine dining restaurant ever. I am mad that I spent $300 for that experience. Our server was extremely casual with us....too casual. Our drinks from the bar were never refilled, we were never offered bread, our appetizers were over cooked, we wanted dessert but had to wait so long to see the server that we decided to just leave. The service recieved from the water attendant was better than the server that got the $60 tip!!!Special Features:
