"We're in a situation where it becomes very convenient to increase the number of people there, and it's going to go up over a period of the next few months," Larson said in May.
Lobbying Dayton didn't work
Since Digi-Key, like Marvin, is what is called a subchapter S corporation, its earnings must be reported on the personal income statements of the shareholders. Larson and Digi-Key owner Ron Stordahl unsuccessfully lobbied Gov. Mark Dayton more than a year ago not to raise the top income tax rate, and got no assurances that a proposed 4 percent surtax on the rich won't eventually happen.
"We could have over 100 people walk in the door today and we'd hire them, but now we're saying, yeah, that's fine, but do we want to hire them here?" Larson said.
Peterson at the North Dakota chamber argues that the west bank of the Red River is outperforming the east bank, and there's some evidence he's right. North Dakota counties on the border with Minnesota posted 18 percent job gains over the past decade, while neighboring Minnesota counties grew 1.7 percent.
That's mostly because Fargo is trouncing its sister city, Moorhead. Fargo's Cass County has added 21,424 jobs in the past 10 years, while Moorhead's Clay County has added 912. That's 25.2 percent growth compared to 5.4 percent.
Along the South Dakota border, job growth on the west side has been a more modest 7.1 percent over the past 10 years, while neighboring Minnesota counties have lost jobs at a rate of 1.3 percent.
Marvin Windows now employs about 500 people each at factories in Fargo and Grafton, N.D., where the company started new lines of business that have since grown.
"Do the tax decisions impact our decision on where we expand?" said Vice President of Operations Brian Johnson. "I think possibly in the long term it's a contributor, but it's not evident in any of our short-term decisions. It's one of many things we consider."
How big a threat?
Minnesota's economy doesn't hinge on its rural western counties, said Ann Markusen, a regional economist and former professor in the University of Minnesota's Humphrey School of Public Affairs.
The Twin Cities has a big, diverse economy with well-developed advertising, publishing, financial, food, retail, shipping and high-tech manufacturing industries. These companies draw smart young people from the Dakotas, not the other way around.
"These are things that no place in North and South Dakota have," Markusen said. "I always think our competitors nationally are Seattle, Portland to a lesser extent, and Denver."
The reason for Minnesota's economic strength is the quality of its workforce, the very thing its neighbors covet, said Art Rolnick, a former economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis who is now at the Humphrey School.
Minnesota doesn't bill itself as a low-tax state, as businesses like Digi-Key are painfully aware, yet its economy grew by 3.5 percent last year.
That doesn't match North Dakota's 13.4 percent, but it's still fifth-fastest in the nation. Minnesota's per capita income remains in the top 10, and unemployment is two points below the national average.
"We've won," Rolnick said. "Look at our economy — it's one of the best in the country."

Here's a Photobucket album to all my attempts. http://photobucket.com/Talley-Nerf-Gun-torage |

I like the plate rack idea, mostly because it's unusual (most of the inspiration photos I've found have been pegboard or some imitation thereof). But I want to investigate other sizes. There's this, w/ adjustable slots: Copco Adjustable Bakeware Organizer This metal one--don't know how big the spaces are between (I may order a bunch of these from Amazon and send back the ones I don't like!) I could try a pan organizer, which might have wider gaps, but they do stick out pretty far. This one is actually sort of cool! another metal one Then again, I could just hammer nails into the wood--that's be cheap, and customizable. |
- Posted by talley_sue_nyc (My Page) on Thu, Sep 6, 12 at 13:48
I could also get out the foam board and the hot-glue gun, and make something the way I made my light-bulb box, right? |
Great ideas as usual. While I don't have a need to store Nerf Guns, with your post I have now identified an item in my miscellaneous bucket...a Nerf bullet. Now I can remove that item and relocate it to my DGS's house. Thanks! |
Talley Sue, I've heard you mention peg board before, so I'm linking to a picture of Nerf guns on peg board. I'm not sure if peg board would work in the space you have, though. I'm also not sure if foam board would stand up to the way some boys would shove the guns back in the stand/rack. It depends on how gentle your son is with his things. |

Camlan, thanks for the link! I've seen a few pegboard ones, but most of them take up a big horizontal swath of wall. But this is a nice clear shot of how the hooks work together to keep the guns level. I'm going to start w/ Command hooks (the wire kind, below) to see if they work; if they're not long enough or not strong enough, I may go get some huge honking nails, and hammer them in at the right spots. |
- Posted by talley_sue_nyc (My Page) on Mon, Sep 10, 12 at 0:18
Well, I tried it out, and those hooks aren't nearly long enough. So I'm going to go with nails. I bought some 4" ones--huge!! I'm also going to hang some of the guns upside down so that the weight distribution is easier to support; I negotiated that w/ my son. But I've decided I'll need to do something to outline where the guns go, so that'll be fun later, after I've hammered stuff in |

yeah, graywings, EVERYBODY is tired of me going on and one about my nerf gun project. My coworkers, my DH, my son . . . why should the Organizing forum be exempt? ;-) The horizontal rack is holding up pretty well--Of course, it's only been there about 3 weeks, but so far... I'll say this: It's pretty securely attached!! Of course, I went a little overboard w/ the slip--hey, I had a bunch. I finished, and I'll be uploading pics soon! |
- Posted by talley_sue_nyc (My Page) on Sun, Oct 7, 12 at 0:04
Well, it's done. I put the pics up on Photobucket (which, by the way, I absolutely loathe. I cannot figure out how to rotate a picture there and get it to stick; and if I try to add a title, the screen keeps kicking me out of the text box and centering on some other part of the screen. And if I add a photo, it breaks all the links, which is really annoying; I don't see why they can't keep the links steady) |

Election Commission Asks Court To Deny GOP Bid To Enter Voter ID Suit
The Pulaski County Election Commission is asking a judge to deny the Arkansas Republican Party's request to intervene in a lawsuit over the way absentee ballots are handled under the state's new voter ID law.
The commission on Monday asked a Pulaski County judge to reject the GOP's effort to help defend a state panel's decision to allow absentee voters who don't submit a copy of their photo identification with their ballot additional time to turn in their ID.
The commission is suing the state Board of Election Commissioners, saying the state board overstepped its bounds.
The GOP has argued that Attorney General Dustin McDaniel can't properly defend the board, since he issued an opinion that the voter ID law doesn't allow for the additional time for absentee voters.

I would like to share a few of my own thoughts on the issue of spanking children.
1. Spanking equals hitting. Let's stop using words that pretty up the act to hide reality.
2. Hitting is ineffective as a form of discipline.
There are two kinds of children – those who respond to being hit by correcting their behaviour, and those who don't.
Responders – The child that responds to the hitting would have responded to other forms of correction. There are other effective forms of correction that aren't at the expense of the child's esteem and don't hurt parent-child relationships.
Non-Responders – The child that does not respond to being hit in fact rebels against the physical transgression to prove that it doesn't control them, thereby retaliating and often making the next transgression worse. They hold in tears of pain or laugh at the parent who in vein tries to "get through to them" by hitting progressively harder, only to produce a child that is motivated to retaliate yet again.
It's a vicious, escalating cycle.
People spank children because they are bankrupt of ideas on what else to do, not because they think it is the best thing to do. People need to learn alternative methods of child guidance through parent education classes that teach adults to understand the motivations and discouragements within the misbehaving child. Parents need to get to the root of the problem, rather than resorting to reactive short-term "fixes" of punishment and discipline. Governments should fund parent education just as they fund pre-natal education.
Now my two cents on the Supreme Courts' ruling. If you have not been following this case, here is a summary.
The Supreme Court has ruled that:
- Parents can use appropriate and reasonable force and restraint for the purposes of correcting / teaching a child,
- The parent must act in a cool and rational way, not angered,
- The force must not be degrading or humiliating or harmful, and,
- The child must be older than 2 years and younger than 12 years of age.
While this is now a more restrictive interpretation of the law than was previously in place, I would ask the Justices how the remaining elements add up to anything that will effectively change a child's behaviour.
If the blow is weak so that it meets the law's criteria for not degrading the child, how exactly will this measure influence behaviour?
If it is so weak as to not be degrading, why do they exclude children older than 12? The court reasoned that this type of correction would promote rebellion and antisocial behaviour. How could an adult acting reasonably and treating a child "reasonably" and not "degradingly" bring that about?
I feel that the ruling essentially speaks from both sides of its mouth. Hitting is punitive and the punitive is, by nature, degrading. It affects all humans the same way, regardless of age. We once believed that husbands could use "reasonable force" to control their wives too. And no doubt some people and some religions feel this is still the case, but our laws have progressed to recognize that this is not the case. We must now show that society must find alternatives to hitting children in a vain attempt to correct them. All humans are social equals and this should be reflected in the law – regardless of age.
I will close by acknowledging the dissenting opinion of Justice Binnie, whose comments I agree with:
"A child is guaranteed 'equal protection and equal benefit of the law' by s. 15(1) of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Section 43 of the Criminal Code, R.S.C. 1985, c. C-46, denies children the protection of the criminal law against the infliction of physical 'force' that would be a criminal assault if used against an adult. The sole reason for children being placed in this inferior position is that they are children.
"Notwithstanding these facts, my colleague, the Chief Justice, is of the view that the equality rights of the child are not infringed by s. 43 because 'a reasonable person acting on behalf of a child . . . would not conclude that the child's dignity has been offended in the manner contemplated by s. 15(1)' (para. 68). With all due respect to the majority of my colleagues, there can be few things that more effectively designate children as second-class citizens than stripping them of the ordinary protection of the assault provisions of the Criminal Code. Such stripping of protection is destructive of dignity from any perspective, including that of a child. Protection of physical integrity against the use of unlawful force is a fundamental value that is applicable to all. The 'dignity' requirement, which gathered full force in this Court's judgment in Law v. Canada (Minister of Employment and Immigration), [1999] 1 S.C.R. 497, provides a useful and important insight into the purpose of s. 15(1), but it should not become an unpredictable side-wind powerful enough to single-handedly blow away the protection that the Criminal Code would otherwise provide."
You can review the full ruling if you'd like details on the court's decision.

Behind the Scenes of a Gubernatorial Debate
Hosting a live political debate starts with convincing candidates to attend and extends through coordinating the format and posing provocative questions. Over the past few weeks, CFM had the opportunity to assist the Oregon Association of Broadcasters (OAB) organize and stage the September 26 gubernatorial debate in Sunriver.
There were numerous conference calls and lots of personal persuasion that resulted in the debate, which sparked sharp exchanges and defined significant differences between Governor John Kitzhaber, seeking an unprecedented fourth term, and his GOP challenger Dennis Richardson, a state legislator from Central Point.
CFM staff researched previous political debates to discover what formats worked best and made recommendations to OAB and the Kitzhaber and Richardson campaigns. They worked closely to ensure everyone involved was comfortable with the process and the program to avoid any awkward last-minute back-outs.
Special attention was given to what questions were asked. CFM staffers took the view that questions should reflect what Oregonians want to know from candidates. They aided OAB in canvassing broadcasters statewide for the most pertinent and sharp-edged questions. Working with debate moderator Matt McDonald of KTVZ, they winnowed more than 90 questions submitted by broadcasters to the ones actually asked of the candidates.

can my DON force me to work the floor?
1Feb 15, '12 by glm777I need some advice. I have been an MDS coordinator for the past 21 years. Due to some restructuring in management, it looks like I might be put on the "on call" rotation. For my building, the on call person usually has to go in and work at least one shift per weekend on call.
Now, I have not worked the floor in 21 years. I am not up to date on the current meds, equipment, etc. As it is, I do my MDSes with a drug book nearby since nearly every med is now in generic form. I haven't done trach care, IV meds, tube feesdings, etc in 21 years. I am truly afraid that I might hurt someone...or worse! I'm also not familiar with much of the paperwork that needs to be completed such as incident reports, SBAR, Interact to name a few.
I am so against this I can't even tell you. I have at least another 40 years to work and I truly feel that I would be risking my livelihood and my residents' lives by trying to give meds, tube feedings, treatments, etc after not working the floor for so long.
When this first came up we were told that "we are all NURSES" so we can all work the floor. I disagree. Yes I am a nurse and my license is the same as every other nurse, but I certainly wouldn't want my mother to get dialysis from a nurse who's area of expertise was not dialysis! But hey, we're both nurses, right, so why not????!!
I'm really just wondering what my legal obligation is to my company. Can they legally force me to do something that I am so uncomfortable with and that I truly feel puts my residents at risk? Can they fire me for not agreeing? I thought the nursing standards of practice made it MY responsibilty to NOT do something that I do not feel qualified to do. I would rather lose my job than make a mistake that hurts or kills someone.
I'd be interested in hearing what others think or about any experiences like this. Thanks so much!Bella'sMyBaby likes this. -
1Feb 15, '12 by rukiddingmeThis type of scenario also happened to me in a prior position. They stated I needed to be in the on call rotation, and that it was part of my new job description. I refused, and they said that if I chose not to comply, I was no longer needed - and that my refusal was my choice, so I was resigning from my position. They can 'make' you work on call, if they so decide -- and if you won't, they will try to find someone who will instead. I assume in order to fulfill this duty, they should have to give you proper training to work the floor -- that is unfortunately difficult considering you already have a full time job doing MDS's. Wishing you luck. Taraimintrouble likes this.
3Feb 16, '12 by Bella'sMyBabyglm777....I know exactly where you are coming from; I would feel the same way.
Do you work for a Corporation and if so, what is their policy?
Some Corporations do not allow the MDS Dept to be on call or pulled to the floor.
Do you have a Consultant and if so contact them immediately.
I can tell you this, if you work the floor and something happens, it will be your license on the line.
Yes, Nursing is too specialized to be bounced around.
The previous Company I worked for pulled this on me but I stood my ground.
If this issue can't be resolved, then perhaps a "Leave of Absence" might be in order....
Stand firm and hold your ground....and if necessary get another MDS Position....
Companies are begging for good MDS Coordinators.... -
1Feb 16, '12 by silverbat, ASN, RNThey can make it a "Do it or be fired" type of thing. If that happens, you will have to decide what you want to do. MDS coordinators are in demand.
I think you should be given orientation to the floor prior to being put oncall. Yes, we are all nurses. Any nurse can assess. We assess as part of the MDS process. No, I don't use a stethoscope, but that is only part of an assessment. If you have doubts with what you hear, someone can double check for you. As far as doing the meds, is that going to be part of the on-call, or do you have a CMT or LPN to do the meds?
How big a facility? Makes a diffrence if you have 20 residents on each unit or 60. Behavior or Alzheimers? Orientation is needed, for sure.
If you hold your ground, you may win and not have on-call. You may also push the limits and they will fire you, or make you quit. If you are a corporation, find out if all the other MDS are doing on call, if not, find out what makes your building different.
If you are a small home, you may have to wear more than one hat.
I am curious, OP,... if you have been an MDS coordinator for 21 years and plan to work for 40 more, how old were you when you graduated and took your position? LOL the math kinds looks like you were born an MDS coord. LOL, or, that you plan to work into your 80's!
Either way, best wishes to resolving this......imintrouble likes this. -
8Feb 16, '12 by merleeTell them that you will need 4 weeks full-time orientation so that you will be safe to take call. And that you will not be able to do your MDS role while you are orienting. And did they want a proctocologist doing eye exams? After all, a doc is a doc is a doc.....
Not seated in reality, are they?
So sorry thay they have put you in this position.Last edit by merlee on Feb 16, '12 : Reason: spelling -
2Feb 16, '12 by DixieRedHeadFirst of all, Yes, they can. You are a nurse, you have a license that meets their needs for staffing purposes, and their rear ends are covered. It's yours that is bare.
You are an MDS coordinator in what setting? I am not aware of MDS coordination done in a dialysis setting?imintrouble and noc4senuf like this. -

LOL - I'm just looking at the fact that I'm NEVER going to retire due to a recent divorce:/
And I was just referencing the dialysis center as an example.
Thank you all for your responses. I'm in a 175 bed building and the on call is for any of the five units - including the sub acute unit. The on call person is directly responsible for all meds, treatments, etc. If I had to do an off shift, I would have total responsiblity of up to 49 residents! This has actually come from our corporate office in response to some restructuring of our sub acute unit. There are already 6 nurses on the schedule which puts them on call only every 6 weeks. I really don't want to leave here - I've been here 17 years but I am prepared to move if it comes to that. I could never live with myself if I seriously hurt someone.sharpeimom and GrnTea like this. -
1Feb 16, '12 by Esme12, BSN, RN Senior ModeratorI am sorry you are going through this...
We are not lawyers and per TOS cannot give advice. But, it has been my experience, that essentially "they" can do whatever they wish (unless you have a signed contract), but you as the nurse can refuse any assignment that you feel you are not qualified to safely perform. Many, if not all, BON have statements that give specific information and regulations within the stats nurse practice act.
and my state of Massachusetts
Massachusetts Nurses Association - Nursing Resources - Nursing Practice - Accept or Reject an Assignment
What I would do is let you DON know of your concerns and tell that you cannot accept an assignment that you have not been properly oriented to and feel safe to do, that they as a nurse as well, should understand this......and that you will require an orientation in order to full fill your new duties and develop the "proven" competencies as required by The Joint Commission. See where this new directive goes from that point.
Now, Unless you entered into a written contract that states exactly what your duties and compensation are/were to be prior to the start of your employment there is not much you can do. Contracts such as this are usually only offered to very high level employees, 99% of the rest of us poor slobs have an "employee-at-will" relationship with their employer, meaning that the employer can dismiss the employee at any time without notice (although most employers will provide some notice and perhaps severance pay). Your job description does not rise to the level of an employment contract.
Unfortunately, in this economy, you are not alone -- these kinds of things are happening all over the country because of the poor economy and there is simply not much you can do about it. In this economic climate, employers know they have the upper hand, and some companies are doing well and still laying off people and making others remaining do more work than ever before. It is a catch 22 -- you can leave the job but may have problems finding another one right now.
An employer may hire someone for a particular job and then the job is eliminated or changed over time. Just because the employer hired someone into a specific job does not mean that the employer is obligated to maintain that specific job no matter what transpires regarding technology, for example, and other factors that affect company operations.
The employee always has the right to leave if the changes in the job title, job requirements or responsibilities are not acceptable to him/her. But employers have the right to determine what workforce they need to run the company efficiently and effectively--and profitably (code for getting rid of the expensive employees). Especially if you live in an "At will" state.There are "right to work" states that may cover this somewhat......that is where you need to talk to an employment lawyer or your states DOL website.
I know it's not what you wanted to hear.....I wish you luckimintrouble likes this. -
2Feb 16, '12 by CapeCodMermaid, RNBoth of the MDS nurses in my building are on the on call rotation. Up until recently, their primary focus was to cover any call outs. You can imagine how motivated they are to cover a shift if it means they don't have to come in to work the floor!
I think it makes for a stronger team. Some of the nurse managers haven't done a med pass in a while, but if it's their turn, they either fill the slot or come in themselves.
I've been in other buildings where the MDS nurses were not on the on call rotation. It made for resentment among the rest of the team.imintrouble and noc4senuf like this. -
2Feb 16, '12 by badmamajamaI can't imagine how scary that is! That would be worse than being a new grad getting shoved to the floor! At least if you were straight out of school you would have had recent clinical experience! I think the PP who said you should ask for orientation and training first was right. You won't get it, I'm sure. The LTC I worked at gave new grads three days orientation if they begged and everyone else got only one or two. At least ask and DOCUMENT that you did! Document everything, and if you have access email your DON so you have everything in writing. If they give you the ax and then try to say you resigned by refusing an assignment then that's a load of crap. Apply for unemployment and talk to the EEOC.
I wonder what your state BON would think of this? Hmmm...imintrouble and Bella'sMyBaby like this.

Joel Hodgson is Out to Cure Our Seasonal Depression by Bringing Back MST3K's Turkey Day Tradition
Movie News By Nathan Adams on November 18, 2013 | Comments (2)In recent years it's felt like the epic rift between jock and nerd has been healing quite a bit. So much so that, if you follow a movie geek on Twitter, it's now just as likely that they're going to be tweeting about the NFL on Sunday as it is that they're going to be tweeting about the new theatrical film releases on Friday and Saturday. That's not how it's always been though. When I was young, nerds hated football and jocks hated nerd stuff, because that's how god intended it. That's why, for whole generations of nerd kids, Thanksgiving was an awful holiday that we had to celebrate by sitting around bored in living rooms full of our pants-unbuttoned relatives while everyone watched some snore-fest of a football game. That is, until Comedy Central decided to start playing huge blocks of episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000 connected together with holiday-themed bumpers in 1991. The event was called Turkey Day, and it was good. With the advent of Turkey Day my childhood Thanksgivings went from distracting myself from football games by playing Gameboy to stealing away to whatever room contained a spare TV and a little bit of solitude so that I could gorge myself on cheesy movies and clever quips while everyone else gorged themselves on beige-colored food. The sad part of this story is that the wonderful tradition of Turkey Day only lasted until 1997, but the happy part is that a lot of MSTie diehards have […]
Movie House of Worship: The Colonial Theatre from 'The Blob'
Features By Christopher Campbell on February 3, 2013 | Be the First To Comment"Movie Houses of Worship" is a regular feature spotlighting our favorite movie theaters around the world, those that are like temples of cinema catering to the most religious-like film geeks. This week, reader Patrick Costello highlights one of his favorite theaters. His comments are those quoted. If you'd like to suggest or submit a place you regularly worship at the altar of cinema, please email our weekend editor. The Colonial Theatre Location: 227 Bridge St. Phoenixville, PA Opened: 1903, as "The Colonial Opera House" — the first stage show was held September 5th and the first film program shown December 19th. After changing ownership through the decades and then a few years out of commission in the 1990s, it was restored and re-opened on October 1, 1999. No. of screens: 1 Current first-run titles: None, although they are currently showing the Oscar-nominated shorts (including the documentaries, which screen tomorrow night) and screen second-run films like This is Not a Film, which is showing this afternoon. And Silver Linings Playbook begins on February 15.
This Week In DVD: Rapey Serbs, Hatchet-Wielding Korean Gangsters, a Spank-Happy Keira Knightley and More
Features By Rob Hunter on March 27, 2012 | Be the First To CommentWelcome back to This Week in DVD! It's pretty slim pickings this week with the best release requiring a region-free player, but there are still a few titles worth a rental. Some of this week's releases include David Cronenberg's A Dangerous Method, Angelina Jolie's In the Land Of Blood and Honey, the 80's shocker Don't Go in the House and more. As always, if you see something you like, click on the image to buy it. The Yellow Sea (UK) A man finds himself in over his head with gambling debts and decides to head to Korea to look for his wife who went there months prior. The trip's financiers task him with an assassination to wipe his debt clean, but what should have been a simple act becomes something far more complicated and messy. This is the first Korean production to be co-financed by a major US studio (Fox), but thankfully it seems to have had no negative effect on the finished product. Hong-jon Na's film is just as wonderful and brutal as his debut, The Chaser, but it benefits from a deeper, more political story. Not to say it shies away from the action and violence… there is some spectacular bloodletting here in addition to gun/hatchet/fist fights and chases. **NOTE – This is a region2 DVD which requires either a region-free player or the willingness to watch on your PC.**
Join us each week as Rob Hunter takes a look at new DVD releases and gives his highly unqualified opinion as to which titles are worth BUYing, which are better off as RENTals, and which should be AVOIDed at all costs. And remember, these listings and category placements are meant as informational conversation starters only. But you can still tell Hunter how wrong he is in the comment section below. This week once again sees a healthy number of releases worth buying and renting and only a few that should be avoided like a leprous Jehovah's Witness. The much talked about but little seen Scott Pilgrim vs the World hits shelves today alongside Criterion's release of Antichrist, Grown Ups, Ticked Off Trannies With Knives, and a few TV shows including the first season of the BBC's excellent Sherlock.

Used cooked, diced turkey breast; cut it up the night before and left it marinating in some concentrated chicken stock overnight to keep it moist. Added minced garlic and finely chopped carrots to the onions and peppers. Added the 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Did NOT add 3/4 teaspoon of salt, but instead, after cooking potatoes and turkey mixture about 10 minutes, added concentrated chicken stock to enrich the flavor, and continued cooking until browned in spots. Served with an easy-over egg on top. Everyone loved it!
This is pretty bland. I made it a bit more healthy by using canola oil instead of butter. I also did not use eggs. I added a jalepeno pepper and some Italian seasonings. But I ended up needing catsup to eat it!
This is great as written BUT with sweet potatoes, cooked and sautéed it is fabulous and healthier. Red pepper is pretty nice too.
This is a great way to use up leftovers. I make a bread and potato dressing with my turkey so I added that to the potatoes...very good. Didn't have a green pepper so I cut up some garlic as well. Yum Yum
This was way better than I thought it would be and I will be making it whenever I have leftover turkey. I used regular green bell pepper and added a minced jalapeno.
Delicious! Am not a leftover turkey fan, and this recipe was just what I needed to ENJOY our leftovers this year. I couldn't find the cubanells, so I used a green bell pepper and 1 scotch bonnet...just enough heat. Also am impatient, so microwaved the potatoes for 3 minutes before shredding (in the food processor).
A friend gave me fresh eggs, so I stumbled on this looking for an easy recipe. Great! I tossed several different veggies from my farm share and use leftover chicken (which you can completely skip if you don't have it). I also tossed some grated jack cheese on top. I'd never prepared potatoes this way and thought it was really handy.
This dish is pretty darn good. I was looking for a dish to make after Christmas. We didn't have leftover turkey, so I used 1 lb ground turkey instead. I cooked the turkey one day earlier, and I also chopped the onion and peppers earlier. So this morning, I just boiled the potatoes. I didn't even need to grate them, I just crumbled them into the pan after I sauteed the onions and peppers. I used arugula for the greens and tossed in two handfuls of shredded cheddar cheese. There was no hash left on anyone's plate when we cleaned up. We fed five people with this recipe and are quite happy to still have leftovers. I will definitely make this dish again not only for breakfast, but for dinner, too!

Good but I will cube potatoes next time instead of slicing.
Made this for a crowd and did as some suggested and added some dijon mustard. Did not use the turkey bacon. Added celery and extra green onion for no additional PPV. Everyone commented about how good it was and could not believe it was a WW recipe!
I love it just the way it is. Don't change a thing.
Love this. I wouldn't change a thing.


text: well i spend alot of time lurking in gyms. An as you know and i shed a few pounds since my awakening to the fact i was a bit chubby at 322lb. one thing that really helped me on dieting was the info i got from bodybuilding mags and sites. why? well bodybuilders seem to be masters of losing weight they eat like horses in the off season and then "cut up" to look like you see them in comps. some can lose 20-30 pounds in just a few months. every year. so i though if they can do i so can i. So what is the difference between body builders and "fat" people. i consider myself and people on this board fat. because your making efforts to get slim so you've been awoken to the fact your not slim. essentially we are the same. but from different sides of the coin we both wish for the perfect body think we could improve something i feel if i can lose another 20lb's i'd look good body builders feel if they can add a bit more muscles to there shoulders they'll look better. same things sort of. we both diet sometimes very strictly we both have eating binges tough theres are usually planned. we both go to the gym. and we both battle weights us the number on the scales. them the number on the dumbell. i think we are almost identical but physically oppositise. but how many fat body builders are there? i believe that i and we all could learn alot from these people. someone who can lose 20;bs in a couple of months every year must have some insider info on the whole weightloss thing ok granted they have more muslce therefore higher metabolic rates but still they gotta know summat we don't. i'm currently 16stone 9lb's which is let me see 233ish. and i wanna be about 15st which is 210lb and at 6' with large fram i think i'll look ok. the question is can i do it by my birthday in december. i'll dish up some pics the start of september :coffee:

Arc 1 SummaryHello again, everyone! It seems that Callahan can't seem to leave well enough alone, and has bugged me to compile a list of the more important goings-ons that each of the three guilds here in Tao have been up to since the past year or so. I was hoping it wouldn't be too much, but it looks like I was wrong... In fact, it looks like all the guilds here have managed to accomplish a great deal since the beginning, much to my dismay. You guys have no idea how cluttered Callahan's office is, he doesn't organize anything! He told me to do it myself if it bothered me so much, but he's not getting free labor out of me. Well, additional free labor, I guess, as I'm not really... being paid to do this. Not with money, anyway; he says that the opportunity to "pore over and absorb such a rich and vibrant history following the creation of the three guilds should be more than enough payment". He's full of it, but I can't complain.
very sad news everyone.this is the day we have all wished would never happened to this fandom. Next Monday is the day we wished would never come. Next Monday is going to be the worst day. We are all going to relive something that all of us have hoped would never happen again. So next Monday on nickelodeon at 5:00pm and then again for some reason at 7:00, DO NOT WATCH THE LAST AIRBENDER MOVIE AT ALL! Instead, why don't you watch regular show then adventure time on cartoon network at that time. Or better yet, why don't you get up from your chair at 5:00 pm next Monday and reply slam your head against the wall until all you can see is blackness. That would be better then going thru that again. Or maybe just watch regular show then adventure time on cartoon network, that maybe for the best.
this movie, omg... "Ookami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki" watch it. It's amazing, seriously.(image found on Tumblr: http://evangelizer.tumblr.com/post/43670310560 ) It's about werewolves, yes, but not cheesy, stupid Twilight "werewolves" or whatever... These are my new favorite type of werewolves, and I'll probably never think of werewolves as vicious bad-guys ever again.This was a beautiful story of a mother and her two children. I loved the story, really did. I even sort of started wanting to have kids on my own as well I mean, Ami and Yuki were so sweet, and funny, and realistic - personality and behavior wise.And their mother was a fantastic character. I really, really liked how she was portrayed.I could go on about how much I just loved this movie.. But I'll shut up and just recommend it to you all instead.Do yourself a favor, and watch this incredible movie
Video games have made me sexist, I think.Haha, sequel to that "Vagina haters" journal from before, I guess.I have noticed that a lot of people hate on Kairi from Kingdom Hearts because she is presented as the "damsel in distress". It's almost always girls who have this opinion, and they almost make me feel guilty for never really having thought of it that way, or for never being offended by it.But the truth is, gaming for 20+ straight years has sort of programmed me to assume that most times, the female character your character interacts with IS a damsel in distress, and without her, there'd be no game to play. A damsel in distress is key to a lot of games. It's the reason I DO stuff.Mario, Zelda, Dragon Quest...there's always a girl you have to save. And you usually marry her at the end, or she kisses you, or gives you a cake or something like that. Mission accomplished. That's never the REAL point of the game, the REAL point is trying not to die and having fun. But you need a reason to get from point A to p

Seek and you shall findHiya Ryceballs, oh my god what an insane couple of days. I don't even know where to start I really don't, it has to do with papa Ry, my dad. It has been an emotional roller coaster for him and this whole event is kinda like a joke now when I think back on it. OK long story short, he was afraid he's gonna be jobless, pretty much he left his old job to work in a 'better' job only to find out that this better job has an even more unreasonable boss bla bla bla I don't wanna get into full details for his privacy's sake. So now he wants to quit this current job and go back to his old job and im like 'ARE YOU FREAKIN JOKING ME?! YOU JUST LEFT! AND NOW U WANNA GO BACK?!' Like how embarrassing would that be right? But he says he has no other options and no other jobs out there, so I told him to look for jobs online and he's like 'Oh nah it won't make a difference'. :I This is coming from a man who doesn't know how to turn off an ipad. So I told him a true story I read... I thought it has

A note on progress and current plans.I see a lot of members are asking questions about group systems, the possibility of transferring teams from PMDE to PMDU, and curiosities surrounding XY pokemon and whether they will be allowed.I would prefer not to answer too many questions right now because it cuts down on time that could be spent bringing out recruitment forms, introductory story, and all the other stuff that needs to be done before the group can really get rolling.Here is our current to-do list, just to let everyone know what to expect.1. Creation of temporary group applications. We will NOT be allowing members to join a guild immediately. A preliminary mission will be released prior to October 12 for members to take part in. This mission will be group-neutral and will serve to introduce players to the game world, allow them to become accustomed to each guild and their functions, and start working out characters in preparation for the real deal. These forms will be designed so that updating them later will be a
So I was just stopped by a cop....I wasn't driving. I was walking. He drives up, rolls down the window, and says something I don't quite hear. I say hello. He repeats it. "How old are you?" I'm in shock. I ask, "How OLD am I?""Yes.""I'm 29!!" (I'm sure I sounded incredulous.)He stares.I say, "I have my license if you want to see it." He wants to see it so I give it to him. He looks and hands it back.He thought I was a highschool truant.The moral of the story is that I should stop wearing clothing a teenager might wear because as I continue to get older and not to age it will become more and more unbelievable that I am as old as I say I am and I don't look forward to being driven in the back of a police car to the nearest high school, in tears BECAUSE I HAVE ALREADY DONE MY TIME!
CAMEOS FOR FLASH EPILOGUEI NEED EVERY POKEMON IMAGINABLEHOW TO GET CAMEO'D:Please leave a link of your TEAM, and ALSO what guild they're in, and ALSO list off their names and species IN YOUR COMMENT!

As well as WHICH MISSIONS THEY DID or are DOING! (m7 and m8, I want to know what EACH of your pokemon has done)Do NOT leave me a block of text, just a simple TLDR summary with all of the information requiredThat makes it easiest for me when I'm scanning the comments looking for the perfect Pokemon to write into the epilogue <a>

Stage 4
Stage 4 describes invasive cancer that has spread to other distant parts of the body such as brain, bones, liver, lungs, distant lymph nodes or combination of any of these. This is also called secondary or metastatic breast cancer.
Cancer can be staged as stage 4 at first diagnosis but in most cases it is a recurrence of previous breast cancer usually after many months or years following the original cancer diagnosis and treatment.
