Allegiant Air unveils first Hawaii routes
Allegiant Airlines has finally unveiled its first flights to Hawaii. The leisure carrier announced this morning that it would begin flying to Honolulu from both Las Vegas and Fresno beginning in June.
Allegiant's thrice-weekly Las Vegas service will begin June 29. Once-a-week flight from Fresno will begin June 30.
ARCHIVES: Allegiant OK'd for 757 flights, targets 2012 for Hawaii (July 2011)
"The announcement of service to Hawaii is a great achievement for Allegiant," Andrew Levy, Allegiant president, says in a release. "Service to Las Vegas and Fresno reflects a moderate growth plan by our company. With the addition of the four aircraft we have acquisitioned, we plan to expand service to other mainland cities in the future. We anticipate the service will be very popular, especially when customers take advantage of Allegiant's low pricing when bundling their air, hotel and car rental package."
Allegiant will operate with the routes with Boeing 757 jets, which it acquired specifically with the Hawaii service in mind. The carrier took delivery of its first 757s in 2011, though it took the company longer than most had initially expected to get the aircraft certified for the long over-water flights to Hawaii.
Still, the Las Vegas Review-Journal says Allegiant "still has not received final government approval (certification)," but the company "is 'confident' that it will come soon, spokesman Brian Davis said. The proving runs, the final step in the process required by the Federal Aviation Administration to fly long-distance over water, will take place later this week."
Once they do begin, the new Hawaii routes from Las Vegas and Fresno likely will not be the last for Allegiant.
The Las Vegas Sun writes: "Brian Davis, a spokesman for Allegiant, said the launch of the Honolulu service from Las Vegas would be the first phase in Allegiant's Hawaii plans. Eventually, he said, the airline would consider service from other cities in the West and other destinations on the Hawaiian islands."
Speaking about the Fresno market, The Fresno Bee writes "Allegiant won't be the first airline to fly nonstop from Fresno to Hawaii -- but the first try, in 1986, lasted one flight before Hawaiian Airlines pulled the plug because of a lack of bookings."

by the sweetest kitty ever.
Gracie has made herself completely at home and we couldn't be happier. The other day, we were reading the papers that came with her from the animal shelter. They said she was returned to the shelter a month before we adopted her due to "unrealistic expectations". Awwwwww, this kitty? Couldn't be true! She has blended into our family so seamlessly I can hardly believe we've only had her for 2 weeks. She always looks for a quiet lap, and if I'm sitting its usually mine. But she does follow me around when I'm busy (and I'm usually very busy by kitty standards, in seemingly perpetual motion).
And she has excellent taste in fabric. Here's the look I got when I woke her up to ask her expert opinion...yet again...
It feels very much like a Seattle Fall right now, perfect weather to curl up with a kitty. I'm so happy I feel a little like this guy-

"Very respectfully, well-written book!"
The class contained in Cissy's written word. She told what appeared to be the TRUE story about her beloved daughter which was really interesting: how she was raised, how her weaknesses (or feelings of inadequacy?) perhaps led to her drug use. Coming from a middle class working home with 2 supporting parents, it's amazing how drug use became bad habits of all 3 children.
Hearing about her childhood days!
No, she was an excellent.
The entire book! I could barely put it down.
I recommend this book to others who loved Whitney Houston.

Community College president's goal is the best education for the least money
NEWSMAKERS 2012: Barbara Douglass
Education reform was a hot topic in 2012, with reports indicating that many young men and women coming out of high school are not ready for life and college. Community colleges are seeing this first hand, with many new students taking remediation classes in basics of math and writing. Barbara Douglass, president of Northwestern Connecticut Community College in Winsted, shared her thoughts on how community colleges can help struggling students in the face of declining revenue from the state.
Q. What are you seeing from students coming into NCCC, in terms of writing, math and other core skills?

When closing military bases costs more than leaving them open;ie., sucking on the U.S. taxpayer, it confirms we are finished as a nation…!
Nemo **==
Go to Admin » Appearance » Widgets » and move Gabfire Widget: Social into that MastheadOverlay zone
The need to save money has always been the main justification used by the Pentagon to sell Congress on the politically unpopular task of closing military bases no longer needed by the military.
But the latest round of closings is doing anything but cutting costs. The estimate for the price tag for closing or realigning more than 200 bases and installations was pegged at $21 billion when Congress approved the plan in 2005.
Now, that projected cost has ballooned to more than $30 billion, with increases blamed on better estimates of how much it will take to relocate and refit personnel and equipment, clean up often-polluted land and help communities cope with the loss — or gain — of a facility.
New Jersey Democratic Sens. Frank Lautenberg and Robert Menendez, who are battling fiercely to scuttle the state's impending loss of Fort Monmouth, want Congress to have the power to reconsider closing a base if the cost is substantially higher than originally thought.
If such a bill passes — and it could command legions of support from other lawmakers slated to lose bases — it would mark the first time Congress has intervened after the process has begun.
Fewer American workers overall died of injuries on the job last year, but that was not the case with women or Latinos, or those who toil in the mining industry, according to the just-unveiled Bureau of Labor Statistics' 2006 census of occupational industries.
In all, 5,703 workers died last year compared with the 5,734 death toll for 2005. The overall 2006 fatality rate was the lowest since the Department of Labor began conducting the census in 1992.
But fatal injuries to female employees increased 5 percent last year. For Hispanics, the 937 deaths — up from 923 in 2005 — represented the largest annual total since 1992, and could partially be explained by the growth in Latinos in the work force.
For miners, 2006 was particularly deadly, registering 19 percent more deaths from the previous year. Those included the victims of the Sago, W.Va., mine disaster and four deadly accidents at other mines.
The deaths Friday of three Indiana workers in an air-shaft accident at a southern Indiana coal mine, and the possible deaths of six miners trapped in Utah, could keep that sad trend going this year.
As if bombs and bullets weren't enough to worry about, U.S. troops in Iraq and Afghanistan have been put on alert to be wary of care packages packed with potentially contaminated cans of chili.
The culprits are not insurgents but a well-meaning group of Los Angeles mothers who recently shipped more than 100 boxes of treats to the troops, which, unfortunately, included cans of Cattle Drive chili that are now subject to a recall by the manufacturer. The recipients are being told to trash the chili immediately because it could contain the deadly botulism toxin.
At a time when Democrats and Republicans on the Hill are so bitterly polarized, it is not surprising that they are on opposite sides of the Barry Bonds controversy.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a Democrat from San Francisco, sang the praises of the San Francisco Giants slugger, who broke Hank Aaron's home-run record Tuesday night.
"Barry Bonds etched his name into baseball's history books and took his rightful place among the sport's immortals," Pelosi said.
House Republican leader John Boehner of Ohio took particular issue with the "rightful" adjective, siding with those who say Bonds' feat is tainted by allegations he used steroids. "I'm a big Hank Aaron fan. He did it the right way. He earned it."
The Senate couldn't find time before it adjourned for its summer break to complete work on the farm bill, Pentagon spending or the confirmation of the next director of the key Office of Management and Budget. But it did manage to bridge the partisan divide and unanimously declare September to be "National Bourbon Heritage Month."
"Whiskey has played an important role in the cultural heritage" of America, resolution sponsor Sen. Jim Bunning, R-Ky., said.

Interesting how most of the bases slated to be closed are ALWAYS in the NORTH, EAST or WEST.
What's the total number of bases closed in the good ole boy states? Hell I bet they've even opened up NEW ONES down thar.
JeffH in Occupied TX
The closing of "no longer needed" bases has never been very much believed as a justification that satisfies me. If it is costing more to close than to keep them open the question is Why ? Is it possible that they are being refurbished for a different catagory of Clientele..ones that have not yet arrived on the scene ?
Just a thought, yet one that bears further examination. 200 base 'Closings', scattered conveniently all across our country is suspicious..and especially during this so-called Worldwide War on Terror. ( More legitimately called ' War of Terror.') Sure gives me pause for concern.

text: Ok I know people say yesterday was like the 96 season with the Jags. I hear people say all the time with out that loss the Bronco's would of had 3 SB rings. I personally see it another way. Green Bay was clearly the best team in the league that year. Nobody was going to beat them as they had best offense and best defense. They had highest scoring offense and the lowest pts allowed defense. I think they would of beat us in the SB that year and crushing the Denver morale with 5th loss in the dance. Super Bowl 32 Green Bay was confident they just had to show up since they were returning champs and NFC always beats AFC etc. I think that loss against Jax allowed Denver to focus next playoffs and realize they have to show up for every playoff game. It also helped them to realize even as a huge dog in SB 32 they could pull off the upset.

Commonwealth expands innovative SHARP program with U.S. Department of Veterans' Affairs funding to help end veteran homelessness
NORTHAMPTON-- Thursday, October 4, 2012 – Lieutenant Governor Timothy Murray today announced the awarding of $1.5 million by the Obama Administration to provide street level outreach, peer support services and case management to chronically homeless veterans in Massachusetts. Joined by Massachusetts Department of Veterans' Services Secretary Coleman Nee, officials from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), the Massachusetts Interagency Council on Housing and Homelessness (ICHH) and Veteran service providers at a forum to address housing for homeless veterans in Western Massachusetts, Lieutenant Governor Murray outlined the announced funding as part of a new contract from the VA New England Health Care System. The Massachusetts Department of Veterans' Services (DVS) will use this funding to apply the 'Statewide Housing Advocacy for Reintegration and Prevention' (SHARP) model to the Housing & Urban Development – VA Supported Housing (HUD-VASH) program.
"By working across agencies and in partnership with many advocates and service providers, Massachusetts continues to make great strides in providing resources for our military servicemen and women," said Lieutenant Governor Murray, Chair of the Governor's Advisory Council on Veterans' Services and Chair of the Interagency Council on Housing and Homelessness. "We welcome this great news, but there is plenty more work to be done. This increased funding will complement our ongoing work with local, state and federal partners as we address a statewide plan to help individuals and families, including our veteran population, transition to affordable and stable housing."
The SHARP model, which is administered by DVS, offers peer support, mental health services, psychiatric evaluation and linkages to emergency shelter to veterans recently placed in supportive housing at a veteran-centric facility. The team also identifies and enrolls new homeless veterans in the HUD-VASH program. This new funding was specifically designated to hire 9 new peer support specialists, 12 new case managers, and be accompanied by 320 new HUD-VASH vouchers.
Lieutenant Governor Murray announced the $1.5 million in federal funding at a meeting organized by the ICHH, "Drafting the First Statewide Plan to Prevent and End Homelessness among Veterans in Massachusetts: Western MA Forum." In December 2011, under the leadership of Lieutenant Governor Murray, the ICHH and DVS jointly launched the statewide steering committee. Since December, the steering committee has been researching the current scope of the problem, examining plans from other states, identifying promising practices, and articulating goals and targets for significantly reducing veterans' homelessness in the next two years.
"Expanding the reach and effectiveness of the Statewide Housing Advocacy for Reintegration and Prevention (SHARP) program will help get more veterans the services and help they need to escape homelessness," said Congressman Edward Markey. "I welcome this vital funding, and look forward to working with Governor Deval Patrick, Lieutenant Governor Tim Murray and Secretary of Veteran Services Coleman Nee to continue and improve this critical support for our veterans."
"We have a responsibility to ensure that those who served our country receive the very best services that we, as a nation, can offer," Congressman Stephen F. Lynch said. "I am pleased to see that this funding will help the S.H.A.R.P. program end homelessness among veterans here in Massachusetts and I want to commend Lieutenant Governor Murray and Secretary Coleman Nee for continuing to make our veterans a priority."
"One of the greatest challenges facing our nation is the number of veterans returning home from their service only to find that they are now alone in a different type of personal struggle," said Congressman William Keating. "A direct result of not being able to reach these men and women is the increasing number of homeless veterans. That is why the SHARP program is so critical – it is the link helping veterans receive the services and support they need. I congratulate Lt. Governor Murray, DVS Secretary Coleman Nee, the Massachusetts Interagency Council on Housing and Homelessness and veteran service providers across the Commonwealth in their tireless efforts to help these dedicated men and women who have given us so much to protect our country."
"The SHARP model reflects Massachusetts' unparalleled commitment to supporting veterans," said Secretary of Health and Human Services Dr. JudyAnn Bigby. "The peer-to-peer approach has been extremely effective in other veterans' initiatives, and this new partnership will help support veterans transitioning back into civilian life. We appreciate the strong support and generous funding that the VA has provided to Massachusetts to support this important work."
"Massachusetts leads the nation in providing benefits and services to our veterans and their families," said Secretary Nee. "By coordinating the resources of federal, state, local and not-for-profit entities working with veterans, we have been able to serve more people, establish better outcomes and maximize public dollars to their fullest potential. Fully utilizing all existing resources as well as employing new methods, such as peer-to-peer outreach, will help us dramatically reduce the number of homeless veterans in Massachusetts and take great strides toward ending veterans' homelessness in the Commonwealth."
Building on the work of the SHARP model and the ICHH steering committee, the Patrick-Murray Administration anticipates releasing a statewide plan later this year, which will outline strategies for integrating federal, state, and private sector resources. The plan will also be aligned with the Department of Veterans' Affairs 5 Year Plan to End Veterans' Homelessness and the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness plan, Opening Doors.
"Together, the U.S. Department of Veterans' Affairs and the Department of Veterans' Services are capitalizing on the unprecedented federal, state, local, and nonprofit collaborations, while building on best practices that make a real difference for homeless veterans," said Massachusetts Interagency Council on Housing and Homelessness Executive Director Liz Rogers. "Programs such as this are exactly what we will work into a statewide plan to provide the housing and supports necessary to ensure all our veterans have a safe, affordable home.
The SHARP model is a collaborative effort between the Massachusetts Department of Veterans' Services; the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs; VA New England Health Care System (Network 1); the National Center for Homelessness Among Veterans; the VA Health Center in Bedford; the VA Quality Enhancement Research Initiative; the University of Massachusetts Medical School; and the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness.
Since 2009, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and HUD have worked with more than 4,000 community agencies across the country to successfully house 33,597 veterans in permanent, supportive housing with dedicated case managers and access to high-quality VA health care. In Massachusetts, DVS works with the VA and more than 30 contracted providers to offer emergency beds, transitional beds and permanent beds on VA campuses and elsewhere. The Commonwealth also applied for and was awarded 1,035 HUD-VASH vouchers between 2008 and 2011. The VASH program combines Housing Choice Voucher rental assistance for homeless veterans with case management and clinical services provided by the VA, which offers these services for participating veterans at VA Medical Centers and community-based outreach clinics.
"We are extremely grateful for our partnership with the Massachusetts Department of Veterans' Services and so many other expert community and federal organizations," said Craig Coldwell, MD, Director of Mental Health Services at the VA New England Healthcare System. "Ending and preventing homelessness among Veterans requires full collaboration. Together we are dramatically advancing our systems of social support and health care to deserving veterans and their families."
"We are grateful for the opportunity to serve the veteran population of Massachusetts in partnership with the Department of Veterans' Services and the Department of Veterans Affairs and other community based agencies working together to eliminate veteran homelessness," said Soldier On President and CEO John Downing. "As we implement these new systems and tools, the veterans of Massachusetts should be more effectively served and protected from falling into homelessness."
Ending homelessness, particularly among veterans, is a top priority of the Patrick-Murray Administration. Governor Patrick and Lieutenant Governor Murray have instituted a number of policy changes, new collaborations and strategies to accomplish this mission. DVS funds more than 30 shelter and transitional housing non-profit organizations, providing housing services to eligible veterans ranging from Emergency Homeless Shelters, group residences, to Single Room Occupancy quarters. In addition, the Massachusetts Interagency Council on Housing and Homelessness is leading a five-year strategic plan to end homelessness in the Commonwealth by 2013. Chaired by Lieutenant Governor Murray, the Council established a veterans' subcommittee designed to address the specific needs of homeless veterans in Massachusetts.

Conventional Farmer Troy Roush Supports GMO Labeling Prop 37
29 Sep, 2012
In 2009, Troy Roush appeared in the critically-acclaimed documentary, Food, Inc. An Indiana farmer, Roush grows genetically modified corn and soybeans. But as FixFood reports, Troy has come out in support of California's GMO Labeling Proposition 37—the ballot initiative that will require labeling genetically modified food. This is a law that could affect Roush's business.
When he first appeared in Food Inc., the farmer told director Robert Kenner that farmers like himself were simply growing what the market demanded―delivery market demand is what any business needs to do in order to stay in business. But he also said that if the market began demanding non-modified harvests, farmers would make that happen. "People have got to start demanding good wholesome food of us and we'll deliver. I promise you."
Hear what Troy has to say about labeling GMOs.

If you read last June and July it's all about limps and anxiety. Ironically this April and May would have been all about limps and anxiety too, but a totally different story. This years story is about progress and recovery.
These photo's from last year clearly show that Maizey was feeling stressed even in the front yard. As I read through posts from last year my sadness and frustration all came back to me.
This year is is a totally different story, as I think the photo's show. She still has a long ways to go, especially when it comes to other dogs, but her general level of anxiety is much, much less. Hooray! Her recovery time is better and even on high stress days she can still enjoy getting out for a short walk as long as she has her stroller.
Last year she couldn't even be in the front yard without her stress level sky rocketing, this year she's not only enjoying being out there, she's doing so quietly! Since we're not fighting with the anxiety I started using timeouts for her barking at the fence and she almost never does now. A funny side effect is that when I say, "That's enough", her timeout warning cue, Magnus comes running. He thinks it's good recall cue since if she comes off the fence with the warning she always gets a treat and of course so does he. That boy just cracks me up.
I'm worried about fireworks season coming up so we've added Amitriptyline to her Fluoxetine. We did a two week trial which wasn't long enough to tell anything so we're trying another two weeks. I hope to be able to use it on an as needed basis, for just the most stressful times. We're still using Composure Liquid and it's a life saver. For the first time I feel hopeful about my girl.
I appreciate how many tools we have in our anxiety tool box now. Not only is her stress level lower, but we have many more skills and resources to draw from on the bad days. As a trainer it's something I'm always advocating for shy dogs- train a variety of skills and try a variety of supplements so when you need it you have options. One thing that was so frustrating last year was not having enough things to try when things got tough.
On top of all that good news Magnus is doing great! His back is all clear, we're back to training, I even let him zoom at the park the other day. It was his SI joint that was out, but now I think this all started last June with a pulled hamstring. That's the only thing left that's sore on him now. So were still seeing Tena, the physical therapist who he LOVES. Now that we're actually down to what we think was the original cause of all his back problems I hope we can clear it up for good.
As if all that good news weren't enough I passed my CAP 1 certification. I can't remember if I really posted about this, but before Magnus got hurt I was taking a class to earn a certification for Kay Laurence' Clicker Trainers Competency Assessment Program. When his health fell apart in March we had to put taking the assessment on hold until he was healthy again. I'm happy to say the delay between the class and the assessment didn't hurt me as I passed with distinction. It's a huge honor to be able to take this class in person, there are only a few assessors in the states. I'm very pleased with passing and even more pleased with how great a team mate Magnus was.
It's nice to have good news and happy pictures to post. And now in a bit of shameless self-congratulations I have to post a copy of my CAP certificate.

I had to get up early to drive my girlfriend to the dealership to drop off her car for some maintenance (don't ask me why she brings it to the dealer, such a waste of money), and I'm stopped at a red light in downtown New Haven. I casually glance out my window, and see a guy walking down the sidewalk. Average dude, middle-aged, flowered hawaiian button-down and khaki shorts. Dark sunglasses. And blue latex surgical gloves.
As I'm watching this guy, he casually walks up to a trash bin, looks around for a moment, and then quickly strips the gloves off and discards them. Then walks away. There are no hospitals nearby. No cleaning (of the normal type) going on that I could ascertain. I'll bet he was a contract killer. Creepy.
So they released the Transformers movie teaser early. What the hell was the point of that stupid countdown then? Morons. Looks good I guess. They didn't show anything. I swear, if they ruin Soundwave (my favorite transformer of all time) I'm going to burn down the world. I heard they were making him a helicopter. Grrr.
I don't think I ever mentioned, but I got to play around with Windows Vista at E3 for a bit, and I really liked it. Still had some bugs to work out though, and it crashed on me (at least I know it's still Windows!) so I haven't downloaded it to beta test. I don't want to risk installing a buggy OS on my work computer and not be able to get work done. But I'm looking forward to the next generation of windows. However, a reader pointed me to this, and I have to say, Tim likey.
I think I saw an assassin earlier today...Friday, June 30, 2006 | 02:41 PM | by
Design on a dimeSaturday, July 1, 2006 | 12:18 AM | by
I like Everquest 2, I've said that in the past. I like that I get a house to put my stuff in. While I've never gotten overly into the design and decoration aspect myself, there is a whole subset of EQ2 players for whom this is their bread and butter. The concept of spending hours decorating your humble abode, and then walking out the front door to slaughter orcs and dragons has always amused me. But I really have to give some of these people props. They get pretty damned creative with their interior design.
And so while I may not partake of throw pillows and hassocks myself, I love the fact that it's there as an option.

Mitch's Musings
Life in Southern Indiana
Biking, Hiking, Music, Fungi, Flowers, & Family in Southern Indiana.
For over thirty years my wife Eileen and I have been entertaining at the Bloomington Farmers' Market, and before that at the Coconut Grove Farmers Market, as well as various venues in Cleveland, Ohio, where we met. Our album, Fresh from the Market, is available from us, and indvidual songs are available as we record them. Here are a few that are ready now: Turnip Greens, Buffalo Gals, Home on the Range, Is It True?, Paw Paw Patch, Skip to my Lou. In recent years I have been playing mainly ukulele, I can carry it and my harmonicas easily on my bike to any venue in Bloomington. Over the years I've played with a number of great musicians, here are a few of my remembrances. Recently, I have been a member of the Pirate Flags, a "folk-rock" ensemble of 7 crusty waistrals who play songs of the seas with heart and abandon, rocking the old songs and folking up the the new ones!
I love biking through the hills and hollows of Southern Indiana, and the streets and alleys of Bloomington as well. I try to ride anywhere I can't easily walk in town, and occasionally take longer trips into the woodlands and waterways that surround Bloomington. I watch the city hawks and the wild turkeys; groundhogs, coyotes and deer all see me as I cruise by. Some winters I especially enjoy riding on the ice of Monroe Lake or Lake Griffy, while in summertime boating and swimming occupy my time when I'm not biking.
I am a fun guy, just ask my friends! Here is my collection of photos highlightinhg the incredible range of fungi found in Southern Indiana. This year I hope put names to the lichens that are everywhere (they are fungi that farm bacteria and algae!)
Charlie Bird
Charlie Bird is a green winged macaw living in Bloomington with my best buddy Jojo. He enjoys riding bikes, hiking, tubing, water sports, hula hooping, Hoosier Hoops and dancing when he is feeling good! He is well known by many of Bloomington's youngsters, and was recently featured on WTHR TV.
Animal Traces
During my rides and hikes around the county, I find evidence of a wide variety of mammals, birds, fish, reptiles, insects, and bryozans their natural state, and bring back photographic evidence of their presence.
Grandpa Thoughts
Not too much here yet, I am just getting started, but here are my pictures of my little pal Dexter Emmanuel!

Spirited away to a distant planetoid orbiting Wolf 359, Craig and the others awake in a medical compound being treated by aliens. Terrified at first, they soon learn that they are now pawns in an inter-galactic power play. And that their only chance lies in a retreat through a portal to another universe. Despite the danger, or because of the fact they have no choice they make the journey only to find even the trip is the most dangerous thing they have ever done. The question is, will it work?

Heat Level:
Haven Drew is about to blow the whistle on a genetically damaging by-product of the Dahkhar Mining Corporation when she is thrust from her safe white-collar life into the mine itself.
Her analytical skills are used by the very corporation she wanted to expose. Lives are placed in her hands and in front of her guns, daily. Trapped in a vortex of rage and shame, she's confronted by two familiar faces housed in her cell. Josias and Isan had been investigating the disappearance of personnel at the Corporation headquarters when they were relieved of their duties and assigned to positions in the mine.
It might not be love at first sight, but biology is powerful and with her mates at her side, there's nothing they can't do. Risking life and limb isn't an ideal honeymoon, but they manage to work together toward their goal of launching themselves into space and to a colony infected by disaster. How romantic can you get?

As was rumored, this thing is packing a Retina display, potentially making this the most pixel-packed slate on the market. The 9.7-inch screen plays host to 3.1 million pixels in a 2048 x 1536 arrangement – that's 264ppi. It's not just a higher resolution though, the screen also boasts improved color saturation.

Title: Great Comfortable Mask
Date: Oct 15, 2010
This mask is very comfortable to wear and the mouth moves when you speak. Like other masks being hot and hard to wear for more than 10 minutes, this mask breathes. Very life like and looks a little different on one person to the next. Although the price is around $50, look for online coupons. Arrived in about 4 days. Glad I put a little extra out money wise because it's a quality mask.

Gold Leaf Chicken by Tyson Is Not Fit for Dogs!!!
Posted by
NATIONWIDE -- This Gold leaf chicken brand is made by Tyson and both chicken brands are equally inadequate for consumption. This chicken is still sold even after the chickens are ridden with disease but not before they are inhumanely killed.
Truth is they should have never even been bred. For Tyson it is all about the dollar and these sick souls are ruthless liars and will say anything to shift the blame of the poisonous deadly chicken cartel operation. No longer can we trust food is inspected properly because the inspectors get a kick back from Tyson to pass the deadly meat through inspection without inspection.
I am a vegan and wish my dogs could be. These days no meat is safe unless you raise it your self and make it kosher yourself by knowing what you feed the animal and giving it a clean supreme humane departure. If not you should not eat meat. All chicken from Tyson is filled with pestilence, disease, torturous abuse for a profit. They don't care what it does to the consumer because they cover their [snip]through deception and the only way to stop b the evil there is to stop letting them feed us.
Tyson is a dangerous sect that must be shut down. If you buy their products you are fueling their evil and their counterpart Monsanto who genetically modifies all food in order to take out six billion people to usher in the new world order.

I would not worry too much about your dogs eating Tyson chicken. Dogs hunt in packs and they seek out the lame and sick animals to eat. So maybe Tyson chicken is preferred by them.

I bought Tyson Chicken Tenderloins they had feathers still attached to the Tenderloins. I threw the whole package away. I will not be buying your Chicken Tenderloins until you guys remove the feathers before packing them. It is not appealing finding feathers on your frozen food.

Crappy Chicken Package
Posted by
Always bought whole cut up chicken in past that included legs, so disappointed in this package of two skinny breasts and much back portion...no legs or wings. Good-Bye forever Wal-Mart and Tyson.
Hello again to Jewel Foods and Perdue Chicken. Shopped Wal-Mart for twelve years, no longer!

So does WalMart own Tyson Foods now? Seems that the complaint should be with Tyson Foods alone, WalMart is just the seller.
Anonymous on 06/07/2011:
Walmart didn't package the chicken. They just sell Tyson products. I don't see why you would stop shopping at Walmart over a package of Tyson chicken
Venice09 on 06/07/2011:
I think Walmart carries cheaper versions of brand names that are packaged especially for Walmart. Have you had problems with Tyson chicken from other stores? I buy both Tyson and Perdue at my supermarket and haven't noticed any decrease in quality.
ok4now on 06/08/2011:
Tyson chicken always seems to have an inferior quality compared to Purdue. When you compare them side by side Tyson has a "left over" look where Purdue is fresh with a more yellow skin. I always check the food circulars to see who has the best price. This week Shop-Rite had Purdue with 40% off. At this price I stocked up and my freezer is packed. They also had ribs on sale. Now I'm ready for the pool side BBQ. P.S. Venice yes you are invited.
Venice09 on 06/08/2011:
Ooooo.. Thanks, OK! I love BBQ chicken.
I usually stock up on Perdue when it's 40% or 50% off in Shop Rite, but I haven't been doing it lately because I have a bad feeling about my refrigerator. It's living on borrowed time, and I just know it's going to give out on the hottest day of the summer.
I've never compared Tyson and Perdue side by side, but I have been satisfied with my Tyson purchases. I will admit that Perdue in my favorite brand though.
FaFaFhooey on 06/08/2011:
Just more proof of the garbage that walmart scams upon the people of the USA. Anyone want to bet that this chicken doesn't come from China. The slave labor must be keeping the chicken feed for themselves and not giving it to the chickens, hence, skinny chicken.
Now if the rest of the people stop shopping at walmart, we can stop giving our hard earned tax dollars to communist China in exchange for skinny chicken and other cheap products.
The few cents that is saved at Walmart is lost a hundred fold in the devaluation of the dollar due this cheap walmart obsession.
madconsumer on 06/08/2011:
walmart does not package tyson products. they are pre packaged in the factory. at my local walmart, tyson has several types of pre-packaged chick. some with whole chickens, and some with select pieces. I susp[etc you picked up one that was NOT the whole chicken, but select pieces.
walmart rocks!!

Buyer Beware!!
Posted on
USA -- After experiencing this problem at Walmart first, I figured that was the problem but after getting freezer burned chicken breasts from King Soopers/Kroger and Safeway it seems to be a problem with all grocery stores and brands like Tyson Chicken.
They come in 5-7 pound plastic ziplock style bags and you really have to look close to see if the chicken is bad because of the Brand name and all of the other information they put on the bags. I know, keep your receipt and take it back if this happens but to the person not aware of this problem it could ruin a good cookout!
Just imagine if you already have a backyard full of hungry friends and family and you then notice the awful looking and smelling pieces of chicken. You now have to take the apron and chef hat off and go back to the store. Who needs that? I mean even if you are trying some remedial, Cooking Class 101 dish like "Wishbone Chicken" (chicken breast marinated in Italian Dressing) to a more advanced "Ranchalina Glazed Chicken" you don't want to be serving it up on a bad bird do you?
The easiest way to avoid this problem would be to buy the fresh stuff right from the meat department. You may pay a little more but it will save you from a backyard BBQ nightmare.
Trust me.

I haven't experienced this problem with frozen chicken, but I'll consider it next time. The best thing to do is to buy your chicken the day of the cookout - second to that buy it in advance in bulk, then vacuum pack it.
Anonymous on 04/23/2008:
I don't know what's worse..freezer burnt chicken,or burnt chicken on the grill.
Principissa on 04/23/2008:
My friend had the exact same problem with her frozen chicken breasts. They looked awful. She did get a full refund from Kroger, but still, when you pay money for a food product you expect to get one you can consume. Those little breaded chicken strips they have are great! We actually had those for lunch today with a salad.
Anonymous on 04/23/2008:
I'll have to try those, Princi.
Thanks, Wax.
UR, I was trying to buy in BULK. I have no use for any kind of vacuum gadget and any decent cook wouldn't buy the meat the day of the big cookout. Ever heard of marinading meat OVERNIGHT?

I watched that last night DB, it's one of the few shows I actually watch. I was totally grossed out by that. But it was really funny when Gordon was cursing him out.

I saw that, DB. (You're going to kill someone!!) Can you imagine working for someone like that Chef. I hope he tones it down in his real restaurants, lol. But, I can't even imagine some of the people on that show running one of his kitchens.
Principissa on 04/23/2008:
Sometimes I think he does go a little too far, but I think that's just to boost up the drama. They must make those people sign contracts or something because if someone ever started yelling in my face like that the burnt burgers would be the least of their worries.
Anonymous on 04/23/2008:
I love that show! I can't help it; I like his meaness and the fact that he can get away with it. Unfortunately, I have not been able to watch it this season because of my work schedule (which is why my "lunch" was so late yesterday). I do think that the network probably asked Ramsey to overdo it. I love reality T.V. but I watched a special once that showed how reality shows are scripted first and the rest is "see what happens". I still watch them though when I am not at work.
Anonymous on 04/23/2008:
Totally agree, Princi. They have to pay those people something, but don't some of them seem a little too dense to run an actual kitchen alone?
Principissa on 04/23/2008:
diane, I wouldn't trust them to feed my dog. I'm honestly amazed that some of them even knew how to boil water.
DebtorBasher on 04/23/2008:
He overacts like that to see how much pressure they can work under because it's a high pressure career. If he talked to employee's like that, he'd be sued...I forgot what he kept referring to the women as on the last series, but it was degrading...I think it's the same with Simon on American Idol...the criticizes them because if they want to make it in the music business, they have to be tough.
DebtorBasher on 04/23/2008:
I was grossed out with the girl on his last show that took the spaghetti out of the garbage and re-boiled it and served it to the customers...and he kept her!
Anonymous on 04/23/2008:
I saw that one too and was disgusted by that. It makes you wonder what people in real restaurants do. I refuse to eat in a place that has a health rating lower than a 92.
Anonymous on 04/23/2008:
I know, Princi, it is pretty sad. I know I could do 100% better than most of them--but I'd have to tell Ramsay to step off (or something a bit harsher that I can't say here) if he got in my face. After raising a family, I could not put up with his crap for one minute--not from him or anyone, for that matter.
The sad truth is that I managed an office full of twits that I could have totally yelled at--but didn't, of course. I sort of know how he feels--he is just able to do what many wish they could sometimes. Those darn labor laws get us every time. That must be why I like the show.

diane I do too. After being a mom for 8 years now I have the patience of a Saint.

zz I bought one of those Bertoli meals, and I could have eaten the whole thing myself. It was good though, but you definitely need to serve it with a salad and bread.

I do recall that post, Slim. I just can't get into eating suped up TV Dinners, you know? I can do a stir fry or fry up something before the apple crisp dessert in those TV dinners turns into molten hot lava!

I hear you Princi, they are good but you'd better have some sides to go with it or someone is going to still be hungry.

ZZ...I took that Catfish that I cooked up lastnight to my Dad...since he said he liked what he had...I was sitting there watching Judge Joe Brown...and looked over and seen my Dad eating that Catfish...COLD!..I said, "Dad, didn't you heat that up? It's fully cooked, but it's cold"...he said, "That's OK, it's good this way"...ewwwwwww, I told him it was bad enough when it was hot. Anyway, I stopped at the store on the way home and discovered Gorton's Grilled Cheese Fish Fillets...it is breaded fish with cheese inside...so, that's what I'm CAREFULLY eating now and it's really good.

Perhaps you should lessen your portion size, might do your overall health some good.

DB, you have weird tastes but then I pour pickle juice over my salads as a dressing and a few drops on my fish doesn't hurt either.
Cold fried fish? C'mon DB's Dad! Cold chicken is good.

Pirate, does 20 percent body fat (BMI) sound unhealthy? My blood pressure and weight is is in accordance with my 5-7 athletic frame. Sounds good to me and my Doctor.

Oh, so you're 80/20 eh? You sound a lot like the ground beef rolls I saw at sam's today.

Zz, excellent review as always.
Hot lava in the Swashbuklers frozen TV dinner... *tears*

Oh yes...bagged frozen chicken freaks me out...especially when it's says, "made with rib meat." EWWWWWWWW!

ZZ--I'm with you--I cook just about all my meals from scratch. It really doesn't take that long and tastes so much better.
I don't know if you belong to Costco, but their fresh chicken breasts are pretty reasonable. They even sell Organic packages now, as well as whole Organic chickens. I love to roast a chicken and then use it for several meals. That's a good money saver too.

Hey ZZ, I know you said you don't need a vacuum gadget but I Reynolds makes this nifty little hand held vacuum packer called the Handi-Vac. It's only like $15.00 and it fits in the kitchen drawer instead of taking up valuable counter space. You use it with the Handi-Vac bags. I use it a lot so I can buy in bulk. I bought 3 lbs of cheese the other day at BJ's. How long do you think that'll last 2 people...? A LONG time!
DebtorBasher on 04/23/2008:
3 lbs. of cheese wouldn't last a week, with just myself here.

LOL Basher!
