Sadie's one cute pup, but owner thinks health issues were withheld
By Janelle Walker For The Courier-News June 18, 2013 11:31AM
Sadie, a 13-week old puggle, was found to have a parasitic infection when she came home from an area pet store on May 21, according to her new owner. Janelle Walker for Sun-Times Media
PINGREE GROVE — Stacey Kranz has had seven dogs over the years, usually getting them as rescue animals from area shelters.
"I am against pet stores that sell dogs. I know, logically, where they came from," Kranz said, sitting last week with her new puppy, Sadie, at her Pingree Grove home.
Now, Kranz is regretting her impulse decision to get her puggle, a pug/beagle mix, from Puppy Steps, a pet store at Spring Hill Mall in West Dundee. Once she got the dog home and took it to her own veterinarian, she discovered the dog was infected with the parasite giardia, which can be passed to humans and other animals, and has an upper respiratory infection, she said.
Giardia, according to the Centers for Disease Control, can cause "diarrhea, gas, abdominal discomfort, nausea, and vomiting" in both humans and pets. The parasite can be passed from dogs to humans, and from pet to pet, the CDC notes, although transfer to humans is less likely.
Dogs are often infected when they ingest feces from infected animals, or through water infected with the parasite, according to the CDC.
Kranz bought Sadie for $1,000 and already has spent $300 on additional vet costs, she said. Those costs will continue, as Sadie will need continued medication to fight the parasite. The dog had an operation to repair a hernia when it was just 6 weeks old, well before Kranz purchased the dog. Her vet says the surgery will need to be redone later, however.
Kranz said she doesn't want to return Sadie. She is concerned that other families who purchased puppies from the store might not know about the giardia, or that it can be passed to other animals or even human adults and children.
Store response
The owner of the Puppy Steps store where Kranz purchased the dog said she has contacted people who purchased puppies that were at her store at the same time as Sadie. Gisselle LaDelle says none of those dogs has the parasite and that they are healthy and happy.
In the one year she has operated Puppy Steps, LaDelle said, she has sold 150 puppies and says Kranz's complaint is the first she's ever had.
All of her puppies also come with a free exam at a nearby veterinarian, LaDelle said. Kranz instead brought Sadie to her regular veterinarian for her checkup.
She prefers that new owners go to the vet the store has an agreement with because it allows Puppy Steps to keep better records of the dogs' health.
Kranz show will not show her the veterinary records for Sadie, LaDelle said.
"She refuses to give me the information. I am concerned for the puggle," she said.
Kranz said she is concerned that her other dog, a pit bull named Toby, could catch the parasite. The two dogs already were playing together before her veterinarian gave her the diagnosis, she said. It will take a few weeks for any tests can determine if the parasite was passed on, she said.
There are other problems with Sadie, Kranz said. She was told Sadie was microchipped when she bought it, Kranz said. But her vet couldn't find evidence of that, she said, and the microchip number provided to her by the pet store does not seem to exist.
She will have to pay for that service when Sadie is neutered, Kranz said.
'Puppy lemon law'
Kranz's dilemma brings into focus the "puppy lemon law" passed by the Illinois General Assembly and now sitting on Gov. Pat Quinn's desk awaiting his signature.
That law would give consumers who purchase an ill or diseased cat or dog from a pet store the options of either getting a new pet, getting a full refund for the animal, or having the store pay for veterinarian treatment.
But the new law might not have enough teeth in it to stop sick dogs from being sold at pet stores, said Cari Meyers, founder and president of the Kenilworth-based Puppy Mill Project.
By the time the new pet owner realizes the dog is sick, the family may have already bonded with the animal, Meyers said. Neither, she said, does there seem to be any enforcement included in the proposed legislation.
Sadie came from a Eunice, Mo., dog breeder that says it is registered with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Kranz said.
However, having USDA certification does not mean the breeder is not running a "puppy mill" — facilities that keep the mothers in small cages, breeding several litters each year and not having human interaction, according to Meyers. In fact, that only means the animals are from a commercial breeding facility, Meyers said.
Although she knew about puppy mills, Kranz said, the puppy in the window at Puppy Steps stole her heart on May 21.
"I got to hold Sadie, and she was everything you expect from a good puppy. She snuggled right up to me and licked my face. I fell in love right away," Kranz said.
It is never a good idea to get a puppy at a pet store, Meyers said. In her three years of running the Puppy Mill Project, she has never seen a dog from a pet store that didn't have some kind of medical issue, she said.
Six plaintiffs filed a lawsuit last week in LaSalle County against a chain of pet stores called Furry Babies. LaDelle said she is not associated with that store, which previously occupied her Spring Hill Mall location. She was directed to the space by mall management after that store closed, she said.
The Carpentersville Furry Babies had an F rating with the Better Business Bureau. Puppy Steps does not show up in the bureau's database.

Two independent assay runs for a masked panel of 190 blood samples
The masked panel consisted of blood samples from 21 patients infected with vCJD, 100 healthy normal controls (dark blue bars), 27 patients with sCJD (green bars), and 42 controls with other neurological diseases (turquoise bars). Data are shown as the chemiluminescent signal ratio relative to a cutoff established as the mean of the signal for normal controls plus three SDs. Samples shown in grey are from patients infected with vCJD that had a ratio of less than 1 in one or both assays and were therefore scored as negative. Red bars show all samples that had a ratio greater than 1 relative to cutoff in both assays and were scored as positive. vCJD=variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. sCJD=sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.

The Lie NASA Told: The Imminent demise of the New World Order
This is a very engaging video about a fleet of Alien ships that are alleged to come from Heaven through a portal. I liked the interpretation that God was destroying all evil in it's path. I started to use this approach in my life to root out all deceptive people and when I suspected that they were there to block my progress and siphon energy from me, I smoked them psychically, it felt great that I now had permission to crush everything in my path that I suspected was false. The wolves is sheepware are our most dangerous opponent because on the surface they appear to be good yet are the most detrimental of all, because they sit there in your life containing your world as a jailer through sipping your energy fields and closing portals which could lead to a wonderful life.

Ascension Energy Newsletter: Dec. 21st 2012, Insights into Ascension Process, Amino Acid Saturation and Hormonal Strength
One month to go to the December 21st, 2012 date. I thought I should write something about this date. I view Ascension as a process and not an event. The process of Ascension is triggered from the inside out, not the outside in. Don't watch the heavens, monitor your thoughts and feelings. To become self aware is to know thyself; this is a process that we can embrace or deny. Denial is the current state of mankind and awakening is not just reading conspiracy sites on the internet. We can not control time that much; but we can control what we do in time. For the better part of my spiritual path, I was employing techniques that were having very little effect on my consciousness. The current new age jargon sets no standard for excellence. All you have to do is be reading the new age material to be an old soul and making spiritual progress is a byproduct of just reading the material.Their is no standard in which to judge whether there is legitimate progress being made? A few months back, I repeated an emotional trauma from 15 years ago. I thought I had learned my lesson and was beyond the emotional injury. In the past I had gone through rigorous self examination and deeply expressed the emotional pain; yet I still attracted in a similar emotional injury. What was I missing? In the past I would have tried to move beyond the emotional injury, by getting right back up on the horse; but that approach did not work the first time so I decided a different way. Nutritional and hormonal saturation; I began to super-saturate the body with amino acids and testosterone precursors ( Men Only). You have heard me talk about MAP, the Master Amino Acid Pattern; a pre-digested Amino acid formula with the nine essential amino's. The last 4 months, I have been taking very large doses of (MAP) Amino Acids and hormone precursors. What I have found out that super-saturating amino's and raising testosterone levels has led to removal of emotional trauma and the neutralization of negative memories. In the Bible there is a saying that one day every tear shall be wiped away. To be reborn is literal, not figurative and it is based on nutritional saturation. In the womb, your mother pre-digests the food and feeds it to you 24/7. The baby sits in an amino acid soup for nine months; massive amounts of nutrition are being absorbed into the fetus without the damage being created from the digestive process. The baby comes out of the womb, nutritionally saturated and ready for action. We are all attracted to newborns because of the massive energy fields that babies throw off. Babies are the real stars; Kings and Queens of the world rocking in their strollers. Well, we cannot go back into the womb, but we can make an approximation with the use of MAP due to it's 99% absorption factor. Most amino acid supplements are 20% absorbed and 80% waste. I was in the Montauk project; I know about repeated trauma's, rage, apathy and multiple personalities. What I did not know was how to put Humpty Dumpty back together again. You could say my life's quest is to become whole or holy. To become like children again, we need to go back to the womb; that is re-create the original environment to reboot our genetics and erase the trauma from the DNA. Here is the key; to activate DNA we need more of it! Hormones inter-act with DNA and are the elevator to Ascension. Here is my new definition for Ascension, densification of the physical body through nutritional saturation. Alpha males are in the kingdom of Heaven; but beta males are not. Alpha's are happy and Beta's are not. Alpha's wield power comfortably and with joy and passion while beta's run away from the use of power are passive-aggressive and suppress emotional pain. The suppression of emotional pain leads to a decrease in appetite or in the exception of obesity an increase in the sugar-based foods that are turned into fat. The use of power requires responsibility and there is a direct feedback loop from the mis-use of power. The learning curve on the spiritual path is through conflict, not avoidance.( There is a corresponding state for women of Alpha's and Beta's). Hormone management for women is much different than for males. Males are essentially a simple hormone system; increase testosterone levels and there is an increase in positive characteristics such as courage. Real Men that women are looking for are filled with testosterone. Testosterone overcomes fear; cowardice is a function of very low testosterone levels. Older people become more fearful as they age because their hormone levels are dropping off the cliff and they are starving themselves to death. Appetite decreases due to degradation of the digestive function and the accumulation of emotional trauma. The inefficiencies of the digestion process and the types of foods that we eat, are the main cause of aging. There is only one true spiritual path where you engage your obstacles and overcome. Engaging leads to a revealing of one's personal character defects that need to be purified through emotional healing. You need to feel deep emotional pain to heal. This requires high hormones and loads of activated DNA which requires an increase in Amino's through saturation. The history of mankind is the story of control through starvation. When we get into amino-acid depleted states we attract in trauma, because we cannot maintain positive emotional and mental states. All character defects are built on starvation within our genetic history. Our bad karma is the degree to which our ancestors were deprived of rich amino acid based foods in quality as well as quantity. Ascension is not a disappearing act, but one where you become the star of your own movie. It is like upgrading your TV from your low density analog signal to HD 1080. We have more pixels per square inch to give us higher definition. Every description of higher dimensional realms is one where everything is more real. Greater sensitivity requires more hormones and more nutrition not less as ascribed by numerous spiritual traditions that shall remain nameless. The basis of ascending is to become more God-like in body and spirit. The body is not some meat-bag carcass that is shed, but an avatar interface that can be upgraded by your own efforts. The deficiencies of personality, health and material prosperity are all rooted in nutritional deprivation; specifically amino acids, in quantity as well as quality. Self correction occurs with saturation, mental imbalances entity possession viruses parasites leave with nutritional saturation. I am talking about levels that cannot be achieved through just food consumption, because of the damage caused by digestion itself. This is where science will go beyond nature to re-create Ascended beings through nutritional correction. Nutritional saturated people crave high intensity experiences and seek more freedom, health, wealth and abundance. This is the natural state for the human condition, progress in all forms increased intelligence, both intellectual and emotional, increase in physical performance levels. The quest for perfection in body, mind and heart; is a tuning process where the song of life becomes an active path that one embraces with full fury. So am I anxious about next month? Not at all, I am having a hard time mustering up any fear of what the future may hold; but my belly contains the excitement felt by a 6 year old on Christmas Eve. An irrational hope of a surprisingly benevolent expanding future.

Ascension Energy Newsletter: Power of Love, Momentum and the Key To Success
The link between the physical and non-physical has become very apparent to me since I re-established a high-intensity short-duration weightlifting program. I work out 3 times a week for 30 minutes a session. This is the first time I have seriously committed to an exercise routine since placing myself on the machines, which will be four years this July. Each week I have been able to comfortably increase the weight I press; surprisingly, I have not hit a plateau yet, although that is a normal consequence of weight training. I am almost lifting as much as I did in my late 20's when I was a mad man in the gym. The benefits of high intensity exercise are enormous for both men and women. Production of massive amounts of growth hormone are triggered from working out near the maximum limits of your body. High, short-term stress triggers fast muscle growth and hormone production. The buildup of etheric energy from the machines in the subtle energy bodies can now be used for clearing negativity and regenerating the physical body. Traditionally, high intensity exercise over time would wear the body out as negativity was accumulated in the non-physical bodies. The pre-natal Chi the Chinese believe we have a finite supply of would be used up at a faster rate. Yet this is not so on the machines--quite the opposite appears to be happening. I am getting stronger without the aches and pains associated with the aging process. The strength gains and muscle mass increases are coming faster to me than they were 20 years ago. If you really want to age regress then you need to exercise--it is that simple. We humans are bio-energetic machines that need energy; it runs through all of our bodies, including the physical body. In conjunction with physical exercise I am also taking high doses of Master Amino Acid Pattern and Organic Sulfur. I have incorporated a simple technique to pull Chi into my body, not through the breath as most systems recommend, but by unleashing it from the heart Chakra. I view the heart chakra as the inter-face to the non-physical realms. You might call it a stargate that can be accessed by sinking into the heart and allowing yourself to feel love. Being connected to the technologies of the Ascension Energy Program has allowed me to process emotional debris at an accelerated rate, to get beyond the shutdown mechanisms in the heart, when rejection and failure arises. Rejection and failure are like power outages that interrupt life's positive momentum. We create waves of energy when we feel love that leads us on the path of success; as we expand energetically we inevitably hit the areas where fear arises. Formally, before the machines, the response of shutdown would be virtually automatic, cutting off the power to prevent the feeling of loss and heartache. On the machines there is a buffer zone of feel-good energy that I have found allows me to remain in an open state and feel the pain which is processing mental pictures and neutralizing negative emotional content. As this process moves forward new experiences and patterns begin to assert themselves, which leads to an increase in momentum, which in time overcomes the obstacle rather than repeating the failure. This dynamic can be seen quite easily in sports. I was at a recent Mets-Yankees game at Citifield Stadium. The Mets were up 3-0 in the 4th inning and the fans were cheering wildly, like they had won the lottery. As a Yankees fan, I was not that worried because I had seen the Yankees come back way too many times (Massive patterns of Success) to believe the game was over. Mets fans, on the other hand, were waiting for the other shoe to drop. Guess what? The other shoe did drop and the Yankees came back and won the game. With their first home run the Yankees' momentum shifted back in their direction and the Mets fans were now accomplices in the Yankees' victory. As the homerun went over the fence, you could immediately feel the "here we go again" sigh ripple through the crowd. Mets fans were closing their heart chakras down, bracing themselves for the inevitable failure to buffer their feeling of loss. And yet the key to success in everything is to open up stronger when negativity hits. Consciously choose to experience the pain of failure and move through it and you may just end up getting your heart's desire. This really is the great gift from the energy machines. It gives one the ability to open in the face of stress and turmoil. It is the power of love flowing from the heart chakra that is the miracle-making energy. It will not always work to your advantage, but if you learn to do this automatically when negativity and failure appear on the horizon you will eventually find success in every area in life as the negative mental pictures are cleared from your consciousness. You will find that there is a bottom to the pain and maybe it ain't all that bad and you will come back with the attitude that "I will fight harder next time and maybe, just maybe, I will win the prize and go home the victor." As a side note, there have been a few testimonials of physical healings and improvements from the machines. One woman just went back to the eye doctor and found out that her eyes were actually improving and she needed to have her prescription reduced. Another character, a friend of mine, healed his appendix after it ruptured. A third person, Charles, went for knee surgery. When the doctor opened his knee up the ligament was no longer torn.

Instantaneous Healings?
Two more cases of possible instant healings of body tissue. My friend Plato had his appendix burst, he walked around for a week thinking it was just stomach cramps. They cleaned the appendix and place a tube with a bottle for a week. When they removed the tube, they found that the appendix had completely healed in a week, the surgery was cancelled. Plato was doing high doses of Sodium Ascorbate,magnesium and Organic sulfur; in addition to being on the Ascensionenergyprogram.com Another friend Charles had an MRI in march 2012, that shown that he had a torn ligament and meniscus in his knee. When the went to open up his knee a month later, the tears had healed. There was very minor work that needed to be done. Charles is big into juicing as well as taking the organic sulfur. Both Charles and Plato have been both on the Ascensionenergyprogram for three years. We are starting to suspect that the healing were more a function of holographic repair through re-imaging rather than the nutritionals by themselves.

When asked, people offer solid reasons why they identify themselves as Democrats, Republicans, Independents, or members of some other political party. Yet research by political scientists John Alford, Cary Funk, and John Hibbing indicates that nearly one half of the variation in political preferences across individuals is genetically determined.
But what about the other half? My lab ran an experiment to see if political preferences were changeable. The results surprised us.
My research was the first to identify the role of the neurochemical oxytocin in moral behaviors. I call oxytocin the "moral molecule" because it makes us care about others —even strangers—in tangible ways. But would oxytocin make people care about a political candidate from another party?

The Staffordshire Hundred Rolls.
The Hundred Rolls are inquisitions taken by a jury of knights
and freeholders of each Hundred, in pursuance of special commissions issued by the King.
The earliest Hundred Rolls extant are those of 39 H. III., i.e.,
A.D. 1255. Of these, the Annals of Burton (printed) contain an
account, including the articles of enquiry, taken evidently from the
original writ, and which are not to be found elsewhere. The
Chronicle says:—
"Eodem tempore, missi sunt per regnum Justiciarii ad inquisitionem faciendum, super articulis subsequentibus. Dominus Henricus
de Bathonia cum sociis suis sedit apud Notingham, qui ibidem se bono
modo et curialiter habuerunt; similiter et alii per totum regnum,
Dominus Phillipo Lovel apud Staffordiam durius et asperius se
habente, etc."
It then proceeds to detail the articles of enquiry as follows:—
The rights or liberties of the Crown, abstracted or diminished.
Of suits, i.e., service due to the County and Hundred Courts
by the respective manors, and which had been withdrawn.
The demesne manors of the King, and suit of mills within
them, and any purprestures (encroachments) upon them.
On the state of the King's forests and Hayes, and waste and
destruction, or encroachment within them.
Of those who held pleas of forbidden distress, or view of
frankpledge without the Sheriff, and without warrant to that
Of churches in the King's gift, and of widows and infants
at the disposal of the King, etc.
Another special commission, calling for similar information,
was issued by Edward I. in the second year of his reign. Under
this commission the articles of enquiry were further extended,
including, in addition to usurpations on the rights of the Crown,
a return of knights' fees and Sergeanties, and an account of
any source of revenue diminished by alienations made without
license to religious bodies or other persons. Also, all excesses
of Sheriffs, Coroners, Escheators, or other Bailiffs of the King.
The Record Commissioners printed all the Hundred Rolls
which were known to exist at the date of their publications;
but a further search of the Old Chapter House Records has brought
to light additional rolls of this description, including amongst them
a complete Roll of the Seisdon Hundred of Staffordshire of 39 H.
III., and a fragment of a Roll of Totmonslowe, of 3 E. I. These
two latter documents (translated into English) are now printed for
the first time.
The Hundred Rolls of Staffordshire therefore now available for
historical purposes are:—
1. The Cuttlestone Hundred Roll, of 39 H. III., printed by
the Record Commissioners: "Rotuli Hundredorum," Vol.
2. The Seisdon Hundred Roll, of 39 H. III.; printed in the
present volume.
3. The Offlow Hundred Roll, of 39 H. III.; printed by Shaw in
the appendix to his "History of Staffordshire," and taken
from one of the Harleian MSS. [K. 10] in the British
4. A fragment of the Roll of 3 E. I. for Totmonslowe; printed
in the present volume.
5. A fragment of the Roll of 4 E. I. for Offlow; printed by
the Record Commissioners: "Rotuli Hundredorum," Vol.
It is impossible to overestimate the value of the Hundred
Rolls for local history; they show at a glance the owner of
every manor, or part of a manor, if it should be divided; the
chief lord of whom it is held; the service by which it is held;
its hidage, i.e., the value at which it is assessed for taxation, (fn. 1)
and many other particulars of use to the historian.
Nor is their value confined to historical purposes only:
the manor, township, or villa of former days was the fiscal
unit, the Sheriff and his bailiffs collecting the taxation by
means of the Reeves or Provosts of the manor. The townships
thus separately assessed corresponded to the ancient manors,
and the Hundred Rolls in this way afford important legal
evidence when manorial rights are in question.
It is not considered necessary as a rule to reproduce in
these Collections matter which has already appeared in print
elsewhere; but as many of our subscribers may not have ready
access to the volumes above mentioned, I append below a list
of the lords of manors 39–40 H. III., as given by the three
Hundred Rolls of Cuttleston, Offlow, and Seisdon:—
The Bishop appears to have obtained the suppression of all mention
of his manors in Cuttleston Hundred, and no details are given of his manors
in Offlow Hundred. Bishop Hugh had taken advantage of Henry IIIrd's
need of money to purchase from him several franchises, and amongst these
was one to the effect that all his manors and all his vassals should be quit
of all suit to County or Hundred, and of the Sheriff's aid, etc., see the
deed at p. 155. It was owing, I think, to this privilege that so slight a
notice of the Bishop's manors occurs on these Rolls.

Whether their children wear them one time or all year round, parents are looking to get the best deal out of Halloween costumes. The Better Business Bureau of New York offers tips for those buying or renting their Halloween gear from pop-up and year round costume shops.
Looking to buy or rent a costume for Halloween? You're not alone. According to the National Retail Federation's Halloween Spending Survey, nearly 158 million consumers will participate in Halloween activities this year, spending an anticipated $6.9 billion on costumes, candy, cards, décor, and events.
Dressing in costume is one of the most cherished traditions of Halloween. According to the NRF survey, 43.6 percent of people plan to dress up. It is anticipated that consumers will spend $1.04 billion on children's costumes and $1.22 billion on adult costumes. Many four-legged family members will be in on the celebration, too. According to the survey, 13.8 percent of those celebrating plan to get a costume for their pet and will spend approximately $330 million on their four-legged family members.
When shopping at seasonal, temporary Halloween stores, and especially at the last-minute, it's important to exercise caution. Consumers need to be aware of retail red flags and to read the fine print to avoid nightmares with fly-by-night costume vendors.
Here are some tips to make sure your Halloween is spooktacular:
- Research the company. Look for full contact information on the seller's web site, including a phone number, e-mail address, and a street address. Always check out the company on www.bbb.org before doing business.
- Read all terms and conditions carefully before you buy. Know the refund policy. Some stores may have time limits for returns or only provide store credit for returns. Many stores, however, have an "all sales final" policy for seasonal merchandise such as Halloween costumes.
- Ask how long a store will operate. If you're buying from a seasonal "pop-up" store, ask them whether they will be open after the holiday and whether they will accept returns when the season is over. Remember that seasonal and temporary stores have the same responsibilities as those who serve shoppers year round, and must display their refund and return policies prominently.
- Leave nothing to chance with online purchases. Make sure the total cost and any shipping and handling charges are clearly outlined. Make sure you understand how long it will take for your order to arrive.
- Pay by credit card. If something goes wrong, you may be able to dispute the charges with your credit card company.
- Guard your personal information. If you are buying a costume online, only provide your credit card information in a secure environment. Look for the prefix "https://" before the website's address to be sure that the site you are using is secure.
- Keep documentation. Always save copies of the order confirmation and receipts.
- Examine your costume as soon as it arrives. If it doesn't fit, or isn't what you ordered, contact the seller right away or be sure to do so within any time frames they noted in the terms and conditions.
- Read the fine print when renting a costume. Understand the liabilities if something happens to the costume, if it must be cleaned before return, etc.
If you're not satisfied with your purchase and have already contacted the company, you may file a complaint with the BBB at newyork.bbb.org or call (212) 533-6200.

America's Classics: Calumet Fisheries, ChicagoAmerica's Classics Award–winning restaurants have timeless appeal and are beloved in their regions for quality food that reflects the character of their community. Over the next few weeks, we'll be spotlighting the eateries that earned this prestigious distinction in 2010. Chicago's 95th Street Bridge, which spans the Calumet River on the city's South Side, is known for two things. One, in the movie The Blues Brothers, Elwood demonstrated the capabilities of his new car by jumping the bridge. Two, it's the home of Calumet Fisheries, a stand-alone hutch that has been frying and smoking seafood since 1948, when brothers-in-law Sid Kotlick and Len Toll opened the place. To this day, the Kotlick and Toll families run the joint. It's strictly carryout. No seating, no bathroom, no credit cards. And, if you believe the ominous street sign, no parking. The place draws a working-class, melting-pot crowd, and a fair number of amateur fishermen. (The murky Calumet is a good place to find bluegill.) Fried perch, smelts, and frogs' legs are big here, but they also bring in scallops, crab, catfish, and oysters. The fried stuff is very good, but what you really wa

Jim DeMint (R-SC), President of The Heritage Foundation, appeared on "Mornings on the Mall" on WMAL-FM in Washington DC Tuesday morning to speak out against the "Immigration Reform" bill. After some very critical comments about the bill and after he referred to the legalization process as "amnesty," I asked him about Sen. Marco Rubio's (R-FL) role in the legislation and with the "Gang of Eight." "I think he's found, as I did, that the only way to get any, even small reforms of our system, is you have to give in to the Democrats desire to put people on a path to citizenship and unfortunately that's something that the whole gang of eight is supporting." "Do you think Marco Rubio has given in to the Democrats?" I asked DeMint. "Who knows how all that worked. I know he began the process wanting to fix the system, just as I did, and he'll always be a good friend of mine, we just disagree on this issue. " Listen to the entire interview here:

Annie Enneking's hybrid play/concert riffs on fact and fiction surrounding the legend of Joan of Arc. Enneking certainly picked the right woman to channel. Like Saint Joan, she's a woman of many facets—singer, dancer, musician, writer, actor—who got the call to perform, and has continually reinvented herself over the couple of decades that she has been gracing Twin Cities stages. Other artists with whom she's worked, including director Wendy Knox and choreographer Shawn McConneloug, have been inspired by Enneking's boundless versatility and her willingness to try just about anything. The Joans is about as perfect a foray into sex, deconstruction, and rock 'n' roll as you're likely to see this year—maybe decade. Enneking presented a workshop version at Open Eye Figure Theatre last year, where she embodied three Joan personas: a young "marauding virgin," a middle-aged actress, and a rock star. Singing her own songs and telling her own stories, she rocked audiences' worlds. This production features direction and additional text by Whit McLaughlin, artistic director of Philadelphia's New Paradise Laboratories, and music by Chadly Koppenhaver and Pablo Jones, who will accompany the divine Enneking.

FORT MYERS, Fla.- Three more wildfires swept Southwest Florida this afternoon, fueled by extremely dry conditions and spreading dangerously close to homes and roadways.
"It's scary, because in a minute you can lose everything," Golden Gate resident Dawn Gustafson said on Wednesday.
Golden Gate residents watched helplessly, as an 8-acre brush fire crept closer and closer to Green Avenue. Travis Waters rushed to help his parents protect their home, as the fire smoldered in their backyard...blanketing their property in thick smoke.
"About three o'clock, I pulled up. Looked on the side of the fence. It started on our fence line, then started climbing up our fence line. Flames were shooting 20, 25 feet high off the cabbage palms," Waters said Wednesday.
The fire started near the intersection of Green Blvd and Santa Barbara Blvd, and crawled dangerously close to homes, apartments, and the road.
"When I saw that smoke that close like that, I didn't know if we should have our parents get out or not, you know. It was getting scary there for a little bit," Waters said.
Farther north, firefighters spent hours battling a 125-acre brush fire in south Punta Gorda. One family braved a fiery pasture to help save their horses...later, thanking firefighters for protecting their land.
"They are awesome. I can't give these guys enough credit for the job they've done today. It's amazing because you couldn't even see out here a little while ago. The helicopter was out, dumping water. These guys are working nonstop," Punta Gorda resident Susie Singletary said on Wednesday.
In Lehigh Acres, a half-acre brush fire burned off of 5th Street SW. It was sparked by kids playing with fireworks. All three fires had neighbors fearing their homes could be reduced to rubble in a fiery flash.
"You never think it's going to happen in your backyard, you know. You see it on the news all the time, there's a lot of fires going on. But you never think it's going to happen to you," Waters said.
All three of those fires are completely contained tonight. Firefighters are watching for flareups.

With London 2012 just a week away, organizers say that more athletes will be drug-tested than ever before. It's just as well. The Fix presents 10 Olympic events in which contenders can be counted on to try doping their way to victory.
1 of 10
Unlike most Olympic sports, huge biceps won't get you very far in these two events. A steady hand will. That's why the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has banned beta-blockers for archery, pistol shooting and other sports that require balance—these drugs reduce anxiety, prevent muscle spasms and help shooters steady their hands. The biggest case of beta-blocker abuse to date was revealed after the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, which saw North Korean Kim Jong Su (pictured) stripped of two medals for his use of propranolol.

Olympic doping isn't just about athletes trying to perfect their own bodies. In the case of equestrian events, it's about doing the same to horses. The IOC cracked down hard on horse doping prior to the 2008 Olympic games, suspending four countries whose horses had capsaicin in their blood. Rubbed on as a cream, this drug serves both as a pain reliever and a cause of hypersensitivity that makes horses more afraid of hitting their legs during a jump. The most famous case of horse doping was at the Athens games in 2004: Cian O'Connor won the show jumping gold and became a national hero as Ireland's only medalist. The glory was short-lived. His horse, Waterford Crystal, would later test positive for two antipsychotic drugs typically prescribed to humans and O'Connor was stripped of his medal— leaving Ireland medal-less for the ninth time in Olympic history.
In the 45 years since the IOC set up its anti-doping regulations, athletes have been busted with heaps of complex substances that alter both mind and body. But the first athlete to be booted from competition simply relied on beer. Swedish pentathlete Hans-Gunnar Lijenwall brought disqualification upon the Swedish men's team at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City because he had two beers to calm his nerves before the pistol-shooting event. Later pentathletes would run into trouble with even more innocuous drugs. Australian Alex Watson earned a two-year ban for excessive caffeine levels before the 1988 Seoul games. He admitted drinking 12-15 cups of coffee and two or three cans of soda over a 12-hour period. Pentathletes eventually discovered the drugs other competitors so regularly abuse: Ukrainian Lyudmyla Blonska received a lifetime Olympic ban in 2008, after her second positive test for steroids.
People like to say Olympic wrestling is the real thing, while that stuff Hulk Hogan did was all a show. It may be true, but real and fake wrestlers have one thing in common: steroids. Mammoth Swedish grappler Thomas Johansson was one of the first wrestlers to lose his medal, for a positive steroid test in 1984. Four years later, Afghan wrestler Alidad was disqualified from competition for taking the masking agent Furosemide. In the run-up to London 2012 a rash of wrestlers have already run afoul of doping laws. Some, such as Brit Myroslav Dykun and Canadian Colin Daynes, were trying to enhance their performance. But at least one was just trying to have fun: regular pot smoker Stephany Lee (pictured) was suspended from Team USA for a positive marijuana test in April.
Throwing a discus, hammer, shot or javelin in the Olympics requires strength and endurance. Just one year after the IOC started testing for steroids, East German powerhouse Ilona Slupianek received a year's suspension for steroid use. She returned to the 1980 Moscow games and took gold. Other beefy throwers who've sought an unfair advantage include Russian shot putter and 2004 gold medalist Irina Korzhanenko and Icelandic discus thrower Vésteinn Hafsteinsson. The most famous story is of C.J. Hunter (pictured), the US shot putter and ex-husband of Marion Jones, who tested positive for steroids before Sydney in 2000. Two Hungarians caused hilarity that year: discus thrower Róbert Fazekas claimed he couldn't provide enough urine for a sample because his deep religious beliefs hampered public peeing, while hammer thrower Adrián Annus provided plenty—it just wasn't his.
American Thomas Hicks won the marathon at the 1904 Summer games in St. Louis, Missouri thanks in no small part to two secret weapons. First, the big glass of brandy he chugged mid-race and second, the two injections of strychnine—a toxic chemical now used to kill birds and rodents. Over the years the drugs preferred by long-distance runners evolved to include amphetamines and EPOs, which are hormones used to increase red blood cells. While Russian and American runners have been implicated most prominently, the Chinese are suspected to be the worst EPO-abusers. That suspicion would have been confirmed at the 2000 Sydney games, the first to test for EPOs, but six distance runners were withdrawn from the Chinese team before they could be tested. Most think it was a classic case of admission by subtraction.
Before Knud Enemark Jensen drugs weren't a problem in the Olympics, largely because they weren't banned. That changed when the Danish cyclist passed out and fell from his bicycle during the 1960 games in Rome. He later died; tests showed amphetamines, caffeine and a drug that dilates the blood vessels in his system. Jensen's death helped spur the IOC to ban PEDs and institute testing, but that didn't stop other cyclists from dabbling with drugs. Substances of choice included a stimulant that affects the respiratory system, testosterone, steroids and a hormone that improves oxygen delivery to muscles. In 1984, American cycling coach Eddie Borysewicz found a new way to enhance performance despite the onerous doping rules: blood transfusions. He set up a motel room where cyclists received new blood to increase their red blood cells. The practice worked: four of the seven athletes won medals. Two years later the IOC banned it.
From the late '60s to the late '80s, East German female swimmers utterly dominated the sport. Turns out, they owed it all to steroids. In 1991, two years after the Berlin Wall fell, 20 former swimming coaches admitted running a systematic steroid program to beef up East Germany's swimmers. Measured in medals, the program was highly successful. But the effects on the athletes, many of whom were unaware of receiving drugs, were devastating. A few other steroid busts aside, swimmers have shied away from performance-enhancers and leaned toward recreational drugs. Michael Phelps (pictured) was famously photographed smoking pot, and Amanda Beard has admitted using ecstasy and cocaine. Irish swimmer Michelle Smith combined both performance-enhancing and recreational drugs when she attempted to hide the steroids in her urine sample—by spiking the pee with whisky.
When Canada's Ben Johnson ran 100 meters in 9.79 seconds at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, it stunned the world. Turns out, he was on steroids—and the biggest drug scandal in Olympic history was born. Dozens of sprinters followed in Johnson's disgraced footsteps, including Britain's Dwain Chambers, who received a lifetime Olympic ban in 2003 for a positive steroid test, but will compete at London 2012 after a successful appeal for a reduction. American Antonio Pettigrew lost his gold medal in 2008 for using human growth hormone, while Greeks Ekaterini Thanou and Konstantinos Kenteris missed the 2004 Athens games after they staged a motorcycle crash to avoid a drug test. And Marion Jones (pictured), the American five-time gold medal winner, became a five-time gold medal returner after she admitted using performance-enhancing drugs at both the Sydney and Athens games.
The Olympics didn't begin testing athletes for steroids until 1976, but the muscle-boosting drugs were a part of the sport long before then. In 1960 steroid pioneer John Bosley Ziegler, the scientist who first introduced 'roids to athletes, administered anabolic steroids to the entire US weightlifting team. The Russians still won. By the time testing arrived, weight lifters were still heavily relying on the juice. The 1976 Montreal Games saw eight lifters busted. Then in Los Angeles in 1984, five more were found to have taken nandrolone, a steroid that's more difficult to detect. Sanamacha Chanu (pictured), one of the most successful woman weightlifters in India, tested positive for methylhexaneamine twice, the first time just after the 2004 Athens games. And more strongwomen from Ukraine and Turkey have tested positive this year and will miss the fun in London.

Rehabilitation Directories
Addiction is a three fold disease—Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's. Here's my way out of that obstacle course.
The "beach-house-relaxed" Cliffside Malibu claims to provide an oasis for recovering addicts and alcoholics. And that's just what you'll get—if you've got the cash.
For a beach experience that isn't quite as costly as similar SoCal competitors, head to this Newport Beach sober living and outpatient facility.
Whether you're interested in the 12 Steps, SMART Recovery, or holistic treatments, this luxurious, appealing and commendable 4.5 star San Diego rehab has a program for you.
This exclusive Northern California rehab is all about client choice—as well as golf outings, Buddhist field trips and keeping up with the office.
Capo By The Sea offers an executive rehab program complete with medical detox and a focus on dual-diagnosis issues, as well as an outpatient option in an environment that exudes the kind of beach house optimism one would expect from an Orange County recovery outfit.
Want many of the luxury amenities A-listers have come to expect—including an enormous backyard with a pool and patio, an herb garden, a volleyball net and a spectacular vista of the Santa Monica mountains—with a recovery program to match?
Anaheim Lighthouse is a drug and alcohol rehab with a more residential feel to it than many of its competitors. The suburban surroundings are replete with palm trees and green lawns, and the houses also have outdoor lounge areas with benches and small decorated fountains.
In addition to the 12-step / holistic therapy approach, what Palm Partners alumni consider the most meaningful part of their stay is the positive relationships built with fellow alumni and a deep love and appreciation of many of the therapists, counselors and techs who work there.
An alternative to 12-step programs, Gulf Breeze Recovery offers panoramic ocean views in a caring and therapeutic environment. Housing up to 26 residential guests, this luxury facility offers a choice of semi-private or private rooms with or without ocean views.

Manchester United booked a spot in the International Champions Cup final thanks to a 3-1 win over Real Madrid in front of the biggest-ever crowd for a football match in the United States.
There were 109,318 fans packed inside Michigan Stadium, commonly known as The Big House, to witness a meeting between two of the world's most famous clubs. Fans certainly weren't disappointed after a pulsating clash ended in United's favour thanks to Ashley Young's first-half double and a goal after the break from substitute Chicharito.
Louis van Gaal fielded a strong team to face the European champions, who started with Gareth Bale, but left former Reds star Cristiano Ronaldo on the bench. Darren Fletcher skippered United once again and it was the Scot who had the game's first sight of goal. Wayne Rooney's corner on 14 minutes fell to Fletcher who took a touch before striking an effort past Iker Casillas' left-hand post from just inside the box.
United's bright start continued and it was Fletcher's drive forward which led to the breakthrough on 21 minutes. After a one-two with Rooney on the edge of the box, the midfielder slipped a pass to Welbeck who found Young on the far left of the box and he steered a shot inside Casillas' near post to complete a brilliant move for van Gaal's men.
The lead lasted a matter of six minutes before Bale at his menacing best drew Real Madrid level. A ball over the top found the Welshman down the left and he powered on into the area before being felled by Michael Keane. Bale dusted himself down to send David De Gea the wrong way from the penalty spot.

Strange, effective ways to reduce stress
Updated On: Nov 09 2012 07:45:00 AM EST
Headache, chest pain and nausea are not just symptoms of illness and disease, they can also be the effects of stress. So to avoid all of the above, aren't you willing to try some out-of-the-box ways to relax.
First, sniff an orange. Brazilian researchers found study participants who did just that for five minutes before taking a stressful test were less anxious and the effects lasted throughout the day.
Next, put a green dot on your phone. Doctors at the University of North Carolina say it serves as a reminder to take a deep breath before you answer a call. It could help you feel better and sound more confident.
Third, give your earlobes a light tug and move them in circles in opposite directions. According to Men's Health online, the motion moves the tentorium membrane in your head which can relief stress
If those ideas don't work, try making faces! Television's Dr. Oz says scrunching up your face for 15 seconds, releasing and repeating can help you relieve any strain you have built up above your neck.

Miley Cyrus: I'm Not the White Nicki Minaj!by Hilton Hater at . Updated at . Comments
Miley Cyrus definitely dresses a little bit differently these days.
But the young singer says folks have gotten the wrong impression from her makeover, telling the latest issue of Billboard:
"A lot of people wanted to try to make me the white Nicki Minaj. That's not what I'm trying to do. I love 'hood' music, but my talent is as a singer."
And the Twerking aficionado also drives home a point in the interview that she's been making for years: don't even attempt to tame her!
"I can't really be told what to do right now," Miley says. "I'm too young to go in and make someone else's vision come to life. I want to go make my visions.
Cyrus has made news over the past few months for partying and dancing and smoking and flirting with Justin Bieber... but she doesn't want anyone to think her personal life comes at the expense her professional life.
"I never stop working, ever," she says. "I want my record to be the biggest record in the world, and I've given everything to get here, even down to friends and family and relationships - I've just put this music first."
The album will be released later this year and Miley teased that it may surprise some long-time fans:
"I've always wanted country-rock influences, but now I'm moving over to a more urban side. It's not a hip-hop album, though - it's a pop album. I'm not coming in trying to rap. It's more like, 'I don't see any girls out there doing what Miguel and Frank Ocean are doing.'"
For even more from Miley,' pick up the latest issue of Billboard. It goes on sale Monday, June 17.
Miley Cyrus just ruined her career on VMA'S total trash. She might as well face it she can only be a porn star from this moment on, and brought extreme shame to her family and the youth of America. The look of shock on Will Smith's family says it all.
........let's be glad she isn't, folks!!
I'm thinking if it walks like a duck- quacks like a duck- its a duck. She is becoming more trashy and when the 1st sight of her spreads across the cover of PEOPLE with a CornRoll No Belt wearing tattoed gangster in her arms -SHE'S DONE! SHE WILL BE DIXIE CHICKED! Bank on it!
She's just become more and more trashy, she's more like white rihanna than white nicki, trashy and don't care. At least, nicki has some styles, deliberately weird but not outright aweful n trashy like rihanna n miley.
I mean, come on. They are two completely different individuals with different styles. Who agrees or disagrees with me? Let me know at Bedloo.com https://www.bedloo.com/bedloos...

Donald Trump Plans To Sue Mac Miller Over "Donald Trump" Record
Mac Miller is facing legal problems once again, as Donald Trump plans to sue him over "Donald Trump" the name of a song on a Miller's mixtape.
This past summer Mac Miller was faced with a $10 million lawsuit from Lord Finesse for beat-jacking his melody on "Kool Aid & Frozen Pizza" which appeared on his hit K.I.D.S. mixtape. Now someone is after money from Miller again for a track that appeared on a free mixtape. Donald Trump has taken to Twitter to put the Pittsburgh artist on blast and is threatening to sue for the track titled "Donald Trump."
Though it seemed as though the rap artist and the billionaire were on good terms, as Trump had reached out to the young rapper when the song was enjoying much success. Perhaps catching wind of Miller's settlement with Lord Finesse, or perhaps just in a more ornery mood than usual, Donald Trump says he wants residuals for the track's success.
On Twitter he accuses Mac Miller of illegally using his name on the track which appeared on his Best Day Ever mixtape, and says "Little @MacMiller, I want the money not the plaque you gave me!" and carries on, "Little @MacMiller, I'm now going to teach you a big boy lesson about lawsuits and finance. You ungrateful dog!"
[Update: Mac Miller Responds To Donald Trump On Twitter]
After Donald Trump went on one of his signature tirades against Mac Miller the Pittsburgh native took his time and calmly responded looking to end any ill will, "I'm not trying to put any negative energy into the world @realDonaldTrump let's be friends."
i'm not trying to put any negative energy into the world. @realdonaldtrump let's be friends.

Of the 30 million people alive today with HIV infection or AIDS, at least a third are young people aged 10-24. Along with others throughout the world, United Methodists observe World AIDS Day. This year's World AIDS Day observance invites all of us to become a force for change.
Psalm 103: God Is Merciful and Gracious1 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and do not forget all his benefits--
3 who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases,
4 who redeems your life from the Pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,
5 who satisfies you with good as long as you live so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.
6 The LORD works vindication and justice for all who are oppressed.
7 He made known his ways to Moses, his acts to the people of Israel.
8 The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
9 He will not always accuse, nor will he keep his anger forever.
10 He does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay us according to our iniquities.
11 For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him;
12 as far as the east is from the west, so far he removes our transgressions from us.
13 As a father has compassion for his children, so the LORD has compassion for those who fear him.
14 For he knows how we were made; he remembers that we are dust.
15 As for mortals, their days are like grass; they flourish like a flower of the field;
16 for the wind passes over it, and it is gone, and its place knows it no more.
17 But the steadfast love of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear him, and his righteousness to children's children,
18 to those who keep his covenant and remember to do his commandments.
19 The LORD has established his throne in the heavens, and his kingdom rules over all.
20 Bless the LORD, O you his angels, you mighty ones who do his bidding, obedient to his spoken word.
21 Bless the LORD, all his hosts, his ministers that do his will.
22 Bless the LORD, all his works, in all places of his dominion. Bless the LORD, O my soul.
Psalm 147: God Heals the Brokenhearted
1 Praise the LORD! How good it is to sing praises to our God; for he is gracious, and a song of praise is fitting.
Matthew 9: The Story of the Paralyzed Man and His Friends
1 And after getting into a boat he crossed the sea and came to his own town.
Matthew 9: The Story of the Woman Suffering from Bleeding
20 Then suddenly a woman who had been suffering from hemorrhages for twelve years came up behind him and touched the fringe of his cloak,
