Mended Net Result reopens for business
Days to go before Good Friday, fish lovers had reason to celebrate. Net Result owner Louie Larsen said the fish market will open Wednesday. The take-out section will open Thursday.
"We have pieced it together," Mr. Larsen told The Times in a telephone call Tuesday morning. "We just had the health inspection and got the okay to open both sides."
Over the past week and half, Mr. Larsen, right-hand man and partner Jeffrey Maida, members of the extended Larsen family, employees and friends, and a crew from Oceanside Fire and Water Damage Repairs were hard at work repairing the damage that followed an early Saturday morning car crash on April 5 that left the interior of the market littered with debris from smashed walls and display cases.
Mr. Larsen said much of the equipment destroyed in the accident, including the lobster tank, counters and display case were custom made and will take months to replace.
"I have to wait for a new lobster system," Mr. Larsen said, "I just happened to have a lobster tank in my backyard that will suffice for now, but it is definitely not a replacement."
Mr. Larsen said the fish market crew did the best they can with what they had. The end result — fresh lobsters, fish sandwiches, and fresh fish for sale — will remain the same.
"I don't think the customers will notice it," he said. "More like the workers and I will be the ones that notice the inconvenience."
Mr. Larsen said he plans to post enlarged photos on the temporary wall that show the car imbedded in the building. "People that don't know what happened, they'll just have to go look at our wall of shame and find out," he said.
According to Tisbury Police, Abraham Torres Rendon, 25, of Edgartown, was at the wheel of a 2004 Toyota 4Runner heading from Oak Bluffs to Vineyard Haven when he drove the SUV into the exterior of the fish market about 1:40 am on the morning of April 5.
Mr. Rendon was arrested and charged with operating under the influence, marked lanes violations, speeding, reckless operation of a motor vehicle, leaving the scene of an accident with property damage, destruction of property, and resisting arrest. He also offered the arresting officer $200 to let him go free. That netted him an additional charge of attempted bribery.
Mr. Rendon was released from the Dukes County Jail that same day, April 5, on $500 bail.
The Saturday morning accident caught The Net Result fully stocked for the busy weekend and Lent.
Insulation, shattered glass, wood framing and vehicle parts littered the floor when Mr. Larsen arrived. The car struck a fiberglass lobster tank weighing thousands of pounds filled with lobsters for the weekend and pushed it into a stainless steel counter, bending the counter. The counter crushed the end of a 12-foot custom fish case and shattered the display glass. The impact sent the case into a wall freezer, breaking the glass door.
Unfortunately, lobsters rescued from the damaged holding tank, which amounted to about 700 pounds, had to be thrown out. The tank was found to be full of broken glass from the windows and front display case, which made them unsafe for consumption.
Damage from the accident was estimated at more than $250,000.
see you tomorrow!! fast work!!
Repeat violator and no stranger to motor vehicle charges Abraham T. Rendon will probably just get the usual, : continued without finding for six months, must pay $50 VW and $50 PSF; : dismissed at the request of the Commonwealth; : not responsible.
Trying to bribe a police officer will probably be dismissed tooooooo. -
The Larson team is the best on mv.they ran a marathon to open the net .The net is mv strong .
Wow…those guys don't operate on Island Time! Good Job!
If it is found that Abraham Torres Rendon had NO licence and NO insurance to cover the $250,000 worth of damage to Louie's place he caused I sure hope that will be what stops the slaps on the wrist these guys always get!!!
This would be a good place to finally start!

Gwinnett Daily Post
WASHINGTON - Shoppers took a break in June, boosting their spending at the slowest pace in nine months as high gasoline prices and fallout from the housing slump made people think twice about buying.
The Commerce Department reported Tuesday that consumer spending edged up by just 0.1 percent. That marked a pullback from May's brisk 0.6 percent rise and was the smallest increase since last September. Incomes, the fuel for future spending, rose 0.4 percent for a second month in a row. However, a more forward-looking report suggested that consumers were in a much better frame of mind in July. Their confidence shot up to a six-year high. The Conference Board said its Consumer Confidence Index jumped to 112.6 in July from a reading of 105.3 in June. The fresh survey of consumer attitudes, though, was taken before last week's stock market meltdown. Another report from the department showed that construction spending dipped 0.3 percent in June, restrained mostly by cutbacks in home building and projects by the federal government. It was the weakest showing since a 0.6 percent drop in January and fell short of analysts' forecasts for a modest 0.2 percent rise. The weakness in overall construction spending came even as construction by private builders on commercial structures, such as offices, hotels and motels and schools, climbed to all-time highs. Spending by state and local governments on construction projects also rose to record highs. The report underscored fallout from the sour housing market. Private builders cut spending on residential construction 0.7 percent in June, marking the 16th straight month in which this spending declined. The other soft spot was a 1.1 percent drop in spending by the federal government. Fresh fears about the housing market sent stocks tumbling. The Dow Jones industrials lost 146.32 points to close at 13,211.99. On the consumer front, the personal spending and income figures aren't adjusted for inflation. The consumer spending figure matched economists' expectation, while income growth was just shy of analysts' forecasts for a 0.5 percent increase. 'Households had the money to spend, but they just didn't do it,' said Joel Naroff of Naroff Economic Advisors. Consumer spending plays a major role in shaping overall economic activity. In the first three months of this year, it was consumers' brisk spending that prevented the economy from stalling. However, in the April-to-June quarter, consumers were much more subdued. They boosted spending at a pace of just 1.3 percent, the slowest since the final quarter of 2005, the government reported last week. 'The consumer has lost momentum,' said Nigel Gault, economist at Global Insight. Even so, the national economy managed to stage a rebound, growing at a solid 3.4 percent pace in the second quarter, thanks to a revival in business investment, stronger sales of U.S. exports overseas and increased government spending. The housing slump continued to be a drag on the economy but not as much as it has been in previous quarters. An inflation measure tied to the income and spending report showed 'core' prices - excluding food and energy - moderated slightly. These prices rose 1.9 percent over the 12 months ending in June. That was a small improvement from the 2 percent annual gain for May.More like this story
- Consumer spending rises, construction spending stronger than expected ( June 30, 2007 )
- Consumer spending slows to smallest amount in months ( December 1, 2007 )
- Retail sales dip but sales excluding autos show strength ( May 14, 2008 )
- Resilient consumers boost borrowing rate ( May 8, 2007 )
- Consumer spending slows in August ( September 30, 2006 )

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan's Supreme Court on Thursday convicted Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani for contempt of court for refusing to revive graft cases against President Asif Ali Zardari and sentenced him to a symbolic "till the rising of the court", sparing him a jail term.
During proceedings in courtroom number 4 that lasted less than 10 minutes, the seven-judge bench headed by Justice Nasir-ul-Mulk announced the verdict and said Gilani's sentence would last "till the rising of the court" or till the completion of the hearing.
The judges left the court immediately after announcing the verdict, effectively ending 56-year-old Gilani's sentence.
However, legal experts were divided on whether Gilani's conviction would lead to his disqualification. They said the court's detailed order would provide clarity in this regard.
Emerging from the court, Gilani told the media: "We had sought justice. The decision was not appropriate".
The maximum sentence that could have been given to Gilani in this case was six months.
Earlier, Gilani drove in a small motorcade to the Supreme Court complex, where members of his council of ministers were waiting for him.

Big surprise: Congress takes care of its own

For many years, Tiburon Peninsula leaders have been trying to figure out a better way to handle traffic generated by local public schools.
Meanwhile, traffic congestion on Tiburon Boulevard has grown worse, especially when school starts and when students get out of class.
Getting more kids to ride school buses rather than being ferried to and from school by their parents has always been considered the most practical solution.
A big part of the traffic problem is the configuration of the Reed Union School District, which has its three campuses along Tiburon Boulevard, the primary road serving the Tiburon Peninsula. Declining enrollment forced the district to abandon its neighborhood schools and reconfigure its campuses so that each campus has a segment of the K-8 grade levels.
As enrollment has grown, so has the number of cars delivering kids to the schools. Traffic congestion has worsened along with enrollment.
For some students, who live as far as three miles from their school, it's too far to walk. And while the district has had school buses, parents prefer to drive, complaining that the cost of annual bus tickets is too steep.
In an example of the school district and the municipalities of Belvedere and Tiburon working together on a possible solution, the two cities have agreed to subsidize the cost of bus tickets in hopes that more students will ride school buses and congestion will be reduced on Tiburon Boulevard. They aren't standing back and saying the traffic problem is the town's problem, or the school district's problem.
"This isn't a program to subsidize school buses. It's to reduce traffic. That's why the two city councils decided this is our problem," said Belvedere Mayor Robert McCaskill, who noted that on some days congestion can turn a seven-minute ride on Tiburon Boulevard into a 30-minute grind.
The goal of their "Yellow Bus Challenge" is to increase ridership on the school buses — doubling ridership by cutting the cost of one-way tickets in half to about $1.20.
Currently, of the district's 1,534 students, only about 20 to 25 percent take the school bus, paying $854 annually for round-trip fares. Cutting that cost in half in hopes of doubling ridership could take 700 car trips off the road, officials estimate.
It also would reduce a daily headache that local officials have tried to remedy for years.
The Tiburon Town Council is contributing $225,000 and the Belvedere City Council is paying $52,000 into the "Yellow Bus Challenge." Tiburon says it is a "one-time, experimental" contribution and that other funding will be needed in the future.
A survey of Reed parents showed that many parents don't put their children on school buses because of the cost and the location of bus stops. The "Yellow Bus Challenge" addresses both of those head-on by reducing the cost while also improving service.
While the grant is intended to encourage more parents to sign up their children for bus service, the subsidy would extend to families who had already signed up prior to the subsidy being offered.
If the district is not able to sell an additional 360 one-way tickets, the experiment will be scuttled. The deadline for sign-ups is Aug. 11.
The short time-frame may be the project's toughest challenge.
The contributions from Belvedere and Tiburon are significant and a sign that the municipalities realize that the congestion is a peninsula-wide problem.
They hope parents understand that having their children ride buses to and from school is important for safety, convenience, cost-effectiveness and traffic relief.
"We hope parents will realize this is for everyone's benefit and we hope we get the sign-ups," McCaskill said.
Traffic congestion on Tiburon Boulevard is not just due to school traffic, but the "Yellow Bus Challenge" is an example of a how a community-wide solution could benefit everyone.

Faculty from College of the Canyons' Welding Technology department are partnering with the Boy Scouts of America to help scouts earn a merit badge, COC officials announced Friday.
Don't miss a thing. Get breaking Santa Clarita news alerts delivered right to your inbox.
Ten Santa Clarita scouts will have the opportunity to earn the recently-introduced welding merit badge during a special event being held by COC faculty and volunteer welding instructors on April 19.
"Up until now there wasn't any exposure to welding and fabrication within the Boy Scouts of America, to my knowledge," said Tim Baber, department chair of Welding Technology at COC. "This is being done throughout the United States. The welding merit badge is one of the most highly coveted merit badges out there right now because of it being so new, and obviously important in (filling) the skills gap."
The event will feature an interactive morning of fun instruction, and is designed to introduce participating scouts to the world of welding while providing access to the tools, equipment, materials and training needed to earn their merit badge, event officials said.
Related COC Welding Lab Hosts Open House On Wednesday
COC faculty plans to give the scouts a tour of the college's welding and metal fabrication labs and teach them about welding safety, welding processes and available opportunities for students interested in a career in welding.
Scouts will also have the chance to use the college's state-of-the-art welding equipment to complete an individual Eagle Weld Project, weld their initials on a plate and execute other welding processes, according to a COC news release.
"To get them into a structured environment where they can be exposed to something that may lead to a potential career is huge, and for us specifically, it provides a feeder into our program," Baber said. "It's a win-win situation for everybody."
The event is scheduled to take place the morning of April 19 at the COC welding technology lab.

Regret (Chapter 4)Italy stirred in the darkness, feeling the rays of the sun press against his skin lightly and wanting to seep under his eyelids. He wasn't sure where he even was anymore, he didn't feel sand beneath him but he still smelt the coastline.His brows twitched into a small furrow, feeling a soft constant breeze brushing his face. What was it now? Reluctantly, he made his eyes open to see what was exactly going on, blinking at seeing one of the pretty ladies from before sitting next to him and softly fanning him with a large elegant feather fan. " Mm?" he hummed in confusion, looking down to notice that he was sitting on his grandfather's reclining lawn chair, and also that he was wearing a white shirt now to cover over his incision."Ah, there ya are! I was worried that you weren't gonna wake up!"Italy jumped at the baritone voice, looking over to see his beloved grandpa in another reclining lawn chair, but he didn't have a shirt. Confused at first, he soon connected two and two toget
Regret (Chapter 3)The two flinched at the sudden loud noise, only Japan bothering to look over his shoulder to see what it was.Just like several times before, America stood atop the large cliff near their base camp, looking over the both of them as he was ready to set out an attack. Japan slowly pulled himself away from Germany and pushed himself to his feet, drawing out his blood stained sword without a word."At last, the hero is here!" America proclaimed proudly, setting his hands on his hips in triumph of just being there before he threw out a hand. "China!! I choose you!"And also just like the several times before, China rushed out from behind the foliage behind him and sprung from the cliff to attack the Axis. Though once he touched down and swung his wok back to attack, he stopped. This looked much different from the other times they had attacked. The main thing that caught his attention was Japans sword. It was bloody and put in a position of defense, not attack like usual." Japan?
Regret (Chapter 2)Wh-what are you guys doing?!?Italy, please, you have to understand!!It hurts!! It hurts!!! Stop!!!It's for the best!!I'm scared!! Please!!! Please, stop!!!!Germany winced, his legs kicking out instinctually from being jerked out of his nightmare. He shivered lightly from the morning air, a horrid acidic taste of flesh festering in his mouth from the night before."Germany-san... Germany-san, wake up.""Eurrgh.." Germany grunted, coiling in to himself in wanting to just block out his ally. At the moment, he wanted nothing to do with him. He wanted to just be alone. After what they did he didn't deserve to be talked to, to have any attention, to"Germany-san!! Please, wake up!!"Reluctantly, he pried open his eyes, flinching at the bright light entering his eyes before looking up to his distressed ally. "What is it ?" he asked in a groggy voice, still trying to wake up.Japan bit his lip, seeming at a loss of words now that he had his attention. He looked bac

Regret (Chapter 1)I feel like I'm floating Italy opened his eyes slowly, heavy sleep still tugging at the lids as he struggled to keep them open. He slowly blinked, furrowing his brows lightly at seeing only blue around him, the top surface filtering distorted sunlight through.I'm under water?He lightly pushed his arms upwards and kicking his feet downwards, he pushed himself to the surface of the water. Though he noticed once his head reached air, he wasn't even holding his breath. It was as if he didn't need to breathe at all He disregarded this thought and began to swim forward, knowing he had to get to land soon. Was he out playing in the ocean and he was just carried away? He would have remembered that happening, wouldn't he? But then again, he couldn't remember a lot of things at that moment, just that he and his friends were stuck on that deserted island. He remembered falling asleep next to the fire then what happened?The curl on his head curled inw

Imagine seeing the best not only in your friends, but in the guy who cuts you off in traffic; in someone who looks different from you; in someone whose political positions are the opposite of yours.'

The growing rift between Israel and the Arab world makes it hard to imagine that Jews and Arabs once coexisted across the Middle East. At one point these identities could be found not only in the same neighborhood, but even in the same person.
Is it an oxymoron to be an Arab Jew? An Arab Jew refers either to a Jew living in the Arab world or one whose ancestors came from Arab countries. This term flourished once in the Middle East but is not widely known today. Not long ago there were Jews living in the cities of the Middle East who were integrated into their societies and held influential roles in their communities and economies.

I didn't feel super cool. I felt sphincter-puckered.
I switched to the "14 words," a white-power motto that Nazi skinheads know by heart, which I had memorized in case I was asked to recite it: "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children."
Still repeating myself, I pulled into the motel parking lot. The skinheads came over to my truck, which was borrowed from a friend, and told me to turn on the CD player. I thought that was pretty crafty: They wanted to find out what kind of music I had in there. Luckily, for the past two days I'd been listening nonstop to a white-power heavy-metal band called Beserker, getting down the lyrics and riffs so that I could carry on a conversation about my favorite hate-rock band.
Now the guttural roar of Beserker's lead vocalist singing the praises of the Aryan master race blasted from the speakers. I thought to myself, "I'm pulling this off."
Then one of the skinheads looked beneath the passenger seat.
I'd given my borrowed vehicle's interior a cursory inspection, checking for incriminating evidence. I'd taken down the yin-yang amulet dangling from the mirror, but I hadn't looked beneath the seats.
"What's this?" the skinhead demanded. He was holding up an Ani DiFranco CD.
A siren went off in my brain, followed by one overpowering realization: "I'm a dead man."
I stammered something stupid about it being my buddy's truck and how his girlfriend's younger sister was a hippie chick and she must have left it in there. I sounded like a high school kid trying to tell his mom that the bag of pot she found in his sock drawer was just something he was holding for a friend.
"Go ahead, throw it down and stomp it," I said.
"That's all right," the skin replied. He laid the disc down on the seat. "Is she white?"
"What?" I asked.
"Your friend's girlfriend's sister. Is she white?"
"Yeah, definitely. She's white."
"Then you should try and talk to her, get her to be more aware. Maybe you should bring her to the show tonight."
I said I'd do that. He gave me a hotline number to call a few hours later for directions to the festival. I left, riding a sweet adrenaline high east on I-70 until I looked at the gas gauge and noticed it was on empty. Past empty, in fact. About-to-run-out-of-gas empty. I pulled off the freeway at the next exit, which landed me at a convenience store at about 40th and York. Let's just say they don't get a lot of white guys dressed up like Nazi skinheads in that part of town.
As I filled the tank, I was hit with hard stares from all sides. I didn't know what else to do, so I smiled and waved, turning in circles, trying my damnedest to look like the goofiest white boy in the world.
It was no problem.

Nice cover, fits perfect and looks great on the car. The only reason not a 5 rating is the time it takes to get, you will wait 6 weeks for this cover. I would also pay extra to have your model name on the front instead of the Coverking logo.

This article provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject. (July 2011) |
In stock trading and technical analysis, an island reversal is a candlestick pattern with compact trading activity within a range of prices, separated from the move preceding it. This separation is said to be caused by an exhaustion gap and the subsequent move in the opposite direction occurs as a result of a breakaway gap.[citation needed]
This section does not cite any references or sources. (July 2011) |
Close scrutiny of island reversal formations shows that the island reversal consists of an exhaustion gap and the subsequent move is followed by a breakaway gap. Uncommonly, the breakaway gap that completes the island is filled in a few days by a pull back as a result of the reaction. The island reversal can occur also, inversely, at the peak or the reverse of head and shoulders formations.
For example, assume that the price in a rising trend closes at its high of $84.00 and opens at $86.00 the following day and then does not fall below its opening. Near the end of the day, it moves up further and touches $88.00 but closes at $87.60 however. Observation thus shows a gap of $2.00 which is not filled. On the following day market price open at $87.40, touches high of $88.90 and closes at $87.00. A few days later or the very next day, market price opens at $84.00 and closes at $82.90, keeping itself below the area of $86.00 and $84.00. All the trading above $86.00 will appear on the technical analysis chart to be isolated and is known as, an island reversal.
An example of a bearish island reversal pattern was identified by Kenneth Gruneisen and published via CANSLIM.net when ITT Educational Services (ESI) topped in January 2009. ESI fell from $120 to $12 in the 4 years that followed. http://premium.canslim.net/CSNNews/templates/OPENARCHIVES.aspx?a=16266

Life in Cold Blood: Attenborough
As i'm sure most regular NOTCOT readers have noticed ~ my background and those of our few contributors is quite varied, but passion-filled! Justine and i grew up heavily inspired by both design and nature, and as a result i'm here doing NOTCOT, and she's helping out when not busy finishing up her PhD in Animal Behavior and fencing... we grew up surrounded by all types of creatures, so it should be no surprise that we're smitten with Life in Cold Blood, and i'm anxiously awaiting the DVDs... Here's what she has to say about Attenborough's latest:
Those of us lucky enough to be in the UK have caught our first look at the final installment in David Attenborough's "Life" series. And this final series is a group particularly near and dear to my heart, the herps! "Life in Cold Blood" takes a look at the world's diversity of reptiles and amphibians. The first episode: "The Cold-Blooded Truth" did not disappoint, packed full of gorgeous footage and remarkable creatures.
The making of ("Under the Skin") was equally exciting, including glimpses of Attenborough in the early days of his career. The man is, without question, a legend. As a zoologist in training, I think I can honestly say, his documentaries have been an inspiration. And the producers of the series may just have outdone themselves again. You owe it to yourself to check out the BBC Life in Cold Blood site in its entirety of clips and goodies, but here are couple shots to whet your appetite after the jump!
DVD and Book are at the BBC Shop... which all Planet Earth lovers simply must have.

Unofficial Tomb Raider mini-series to act as prequel to Rise of the Tomb Raider
From actor/director Stephen Lunsford, who made a number of shorts to coincide with Tomb Raider in 2013.
Rise of the Tomb Raider is being published by Microsoft
Does this make a PS4 release even more unlikely?

Spencer teases big line-up coming next Christmas.
Rise of the Tomb Raider's Camilla Luddington may reveal new details on 2015 sequel later today

Man robs fast-food restaurant through drive-thru
POSTED: Saturday, April 27, 2013 - 9:58pm
UPDATED: Saturday, April 27, 2013 - 9:59pm
FABENS, TX — A man goes through the drive-thru of a fast-food restaurant in Fabens early Saturday morning, but instead of asking for food, he asked for money.
El Paso County Sheriff's Deputies said the man went to the restaurant on Fabens Street and Northeast K Street showed drive-thru employees a gun and demanded cash.
At some point, they said the robber locked two employees inside a walk-in freezer.
He got away with $300 in cash.
If you have information about the robbery, call the El Paso County Sheriff's Office at 915-546-2280.

The famous Flying Wallendas, who made Sarasota their home in 1937, were honored with a Sarasota County historical marker outside their former house.
County Commissioners Joe Barbetta, Nora Patterson and Carolyn Mason, Mayor Dick Clapp and Vice Mayor Kelly Kirschner helped unveil that marker Jan. 8, at the 1623 Arlington St. home.
Although they no longer own the home, a number of Wallenda family members attended the event.
"We wanted to preserve the house, because it's part of Sarasota's history," said Carla Wallenda, who still performs at the age of 73.
The Wallendas began their high-wire circus act in Germany. During a performance in 1928 in Cuba, John Ringling saw their act and hired them for his Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus.
Karl and Helen Wallenda, the family's patriarch and matriarch, used their home as a hangout for many circus performers, and neighbors would visit to watch them practice.
"I'm very proud that the Wallenda family is getting this tribute," said Betty Intagliata, chairwoman of the Sarasota County Historical Commission. "It's long overdue."

Anybody care to exchange suggestions for best (or worst) "diet" foods? Low carb, low fat, or just low calorie--whatever is working (or not) for you.
For example, I'm looking to try sugar free, low-calorie pancake syrup, and the cheapest one I saw today was $3.49. Before I throw money away on a really awful product--can anyone recommend a good one? (BTW, I'm spoiled, used to genuine 100% maple syrup.) For my part, I can recommend Land O Lakes fat-free half and half. Erica |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi Erica, I can't help you out on the syrup, but I think one of the best "diet" foods are the sugar-free jello and puddings. They seem to taste just as good as the fully loaded varieties. Janet |
Eggo lite syrup is the one I like the best. It's low sugar not sugar free, about 25 calories a tablespoon. I like real Maple syrup too. A little goes a long way so sometimes I indulge myself. We don't by anything with the word "free" in it except for soft drinks and jello. We do use "lite" cream cheese (Kraft Philadelphia), lite mayo (Best Food's or Hellman's) and "Light Done Right" salad dressings (Kraft). Favorite spread is light "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter". Something a lot of people don't know about milk....1% is actually "creamier" than 2%. It has something to do with more milk solids. My family will not drink 2% or skim but have no complaints about the 1%. Let's see, Stouffer's Lean Cuisine is the only frozen "diet" dinner food I can taste. I have no idea why WW food is so bland. Everything else is regular stuff is this house. I eat real bread, butter and ice cream. We use a regular popcorn popper (I skimp a bit on the oil). |

I lose weight exercising, cutting portions and not eating too many sweets and snacks, and I agree with Wildchild about the "free" stuff. I do try hard to eat the "superfoods" and three glasses of milk or equivalent dairy a day. Superfoods Beans Blueberries Broccoli Oats Oranges Pumpkin Soy Spinach Tea (Black or green) Tomatoes Turkey (skinless breast) Walnuts Wild salmon Yogurt |
Wow Joann - thanks for that list! I use the "free" salad dressings, mayo and squeeze margerine. Depends on what diet you are on but I find there are a lot of calories in the regular stuff and I watch the cholesterol too (my "good" is too low so my "bad" needs to be lower than most folks). The margerine I use is Smart Squeeze from Smart Beat. There is only 5 calories per tablespoon compared to the solid Smart Balance spread (here for hubby) that has 80 per tablespoon. When I find it I usually buy 2 because some stores do not carry it. The ff ranch salad dressing is cheaper at the Dollar General stores. 99 cents here. I like Kashi cereals but the GoLean has more calories than the others - go figure. WW frozen meals are too spicy - agree with the Stouffers/ Healthy Choice being better ones. WW lasagna is good though. I buy regular jam/jelly though - don't use too much and the sf stuff is too pricey. WW bagels are good - and under 200 calories. One of our Food Lions carrys them but they are hard to find because they sell out fast. Mom ordered 10 of them from the store and froze them. Kathy |

Kathy, is there a website which would tell me where I can find WW bagels and english muffins? I purchased the "lite" muffins (1 point each) from my Stop & Shop here in 'Jersey, but I've never seen WW bagels. Thanks |

Lo Carb ......... DELICIOUS THINGS !!!!! Natural Ovens Bread and bagels So many more are coming out ... I'll keep trying them and seeing what's good ! |
Dee the bagels are hard to find. I still have one in the freezer in the bag so will see who bakes them. They should be able to tell you who would have them in your area. The salesman said they were overwhelmed with the demand for them. OK I found the pack - 1 bagel is 3 points/190 calories. They were produced for WW by LLC (CBC CONN. Lic. NO. 5698) - gee that tells you a lot doesn't it? They also have - according to the label WW English Muffins, rolls, Italian, rye, wheat and white bread. Kathy |
DeeMarie - I don't know where you live in NJ--I'm in the South. I've seen them at my Super G, on a separate rack standing in front of where the other packaged bagels are in the bread aisle. They are mixed in with other brands, so you have to look carefully. |
- Posted by DeeMarie5500 (My Page) on Fri, Jun 18, 04 at 12:34
Thanks Erica & Kathy! Erica, I'm in northeast Jersey, about 20 miles west of midtown NYC. We don't have Super G, but my sister lives in Burlington County, so perhaps I'll have a look by her when I visit. I think I would solve lots of my problems if I remembered to bring my slide with me when I grocery shop. That way, I can find out the Weight Watcher points-per-serving of "diet" foods! Have a great weekend! |
Not really a food but Wylers has a good drink mix. It is in a canister like Crystal Light which is also good but cost a little more per envelope. 5 calories per 8 oz. cup. I like the fruity flavors but the green tea is a little weird - does not want to dissolve. Kathy |
- Posted by Teresa_nc7 (My Page) on Sun, Jun 20, 04 at 8:51
Finally found the Crystal Light Sunrise orange drink last week. It is good, but a little sweet for my taste, I like it made very weak. Really prefer the Raspberry Lemonade flavor. A friend said she knows someone that can get it by the case, which is cheaper. We may go in together and get a case of it. Don't get me wrong, I don't drink it like water. One little tub made up can last me several days. I used to be totally against all diet beverages and didn't like the aftertaste they left in my mouth. But I've found I can tolerate the CL made very weak and it is a nice change from plain water. |
I like Crystal Light, too -- not only does it get extra water in me (which I don't drink enough of), but will sometimes satisfy a sweet craving. I've been buying the new orange one and, like you, I also water it down and it lasts me about 4 days. I like the lemonade, but haven't tried the raspberry lemonade -- I'll look for it the next time I go to the store -- thanks for calling it to my attention. Janet |
Dee, here in Central NJ, all of the WW breads can be found at Shoprite and Pathmark -- good luck, those bagels are decent for the point value! |
Well our source for the bagels disappeared - haven't seen them in the store for weeks. I bought the Lenders - a few more calories and not as much fiber but they are filling with a big glass of something.Have you seen the individual Crystal Light packets close to the checkout of the grocery store? They are to add to a bottle of water - how clever. Kathy |

Theater Latte Da's Original Musical Steerage Song Scheduled to Premiere at the Fitzgerald Theater June 2-5, 2011
ST. PAUL, Minn., March 10, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — The world premiere of Theater Latte Da's original musical Steerage Song, which celebrates the journey of immigrants to America during the height of immigration, will debut at St. Paul's historic Fitzgerald Theater and will run June 2-5, 2011.
Created by Artistic Director Peter Rothstein along with musician and writer Dan Chouinard, the new musical docudrama is premiering in partnership with Minnesota Public Radio. Steerage Song will tell a story through music of the journey immigrants took from Europe to America through Ellis Island.
Ellis Island was the gateway to America–a land of opportunity for some, a land of exclusion for others. Five thousand immigrants a day passed through this "Island of Hope, Island of Tears." Packed into the steerage of steamships, they left their homelands with few possessions, but a wealth of optimism, perseverance and music.
"For 150 years immigration has been a volatile discussion in this country. In creating Steerage Song, I hope to chronicle the journey of millions of new Americans through their music which expressed their hopes, sacrifices, pains and joys," said Rothstein.
Steerage Song is a musical kaleidoscope of the journey to America. Rothstein and Chouinard have woven together a rich tapestry of European immigrant songs, patriotic tunes, and melodies of Tin Pan Alley in a tribute to the voices that created a new sound of America. They have spent the past few years gathering immigrant songs from 30 different European countries.
The show includes lyrics in fifteen different languages, but the driving force is the universal language of music. Providing a context for the music are quotes taken from immigrant guidebooks, Ellis Island documents, immigration legislation and articles about life in New York's Lower East Side tenement district.
"The history of immigration is both rich and cyclical," said Chouinard. "By remembering our own history, we can look with greater understanding on the faces of immigrants in our community today."
Rothstein and Chouinard each have a long and fruitful history of musical storytelling. Rothstein's last creation was All Is Calm: The Christmas Truce of 1914, which used a similar structure of music and found texts to create a unique musical docudrama. Chouinard's most recent commission was for the Minnesota Historical Society about St. Paul's Rondo neighborhood–the history of its streets, its people and its music.
The impressive cast of singers and actors includes Sasha Andreev, Erin Capello, Denis Curley, Dylan Fresco, Jennifer Grimm, Jay Hornbacher and Natalie Nowytski. They are accompanied by some of Minnesota's finest musicians, including Peter Ostroushko on violin and mando; Laura McKenzie on harp, pipes and concertina; Dirk Freymuth on guitar and strings; Dale Mendenhall on reeds; and Music Director Dan Chouinard on accordion and piano.
STEERAGE SONG (world premiere) By Peter Rothstein and Dan Chouinard The Fitzgerald Theater - 10 E Exchange St, St Paul, MN 55101 PERFORMANCE SCHEDULE Thursday, June 2, 8:00 PM Friday, June 3, 8:00 PM Saturday, June 4, 8:00 PM Sunday, June 5, 2:00 PM
