Its the holiday season and the festivities have begun. In the spirit of the holidays, friends and families will be attending parties, eating dinners, indulging in wine and, other activities that will all result in larger than normal restaurant tabs. You may assume that the servers and bartenders waiting on you are making the big bucks, and this may or may not be true. However, these payoffs dont come without their own set of risks. Today, servers and bartenders in the restaurant industry are held personally liable for the actions and well-being of customers who have consumed alcohol on the premises. The Supreme Court of Canada states that you owe a duty of care to your patrons. Servers and the restaurant owner can be held equally responsible for any fines, arrests, imprisonment or civil liability that may arise as the result of court findings.
While facilitating Smart Serve workshops at the Sault Community Career Centre I am often asked, How do we know if a person has had too much to drink? This is where I have to tell workshop participants that its not all black and white. The refusal of minors is a straightforward law; if they are under the age of 19 you just dont serve them alcohol, EVER. But how do you know if a patron who is of legal age is drunk or not? Its a grey area. In todays world of law suits and counter law suits, a server must be very careful to never serve an intoxicated guest and furthermore, to never serve a guest to the point of intoxication. Thats why a job in this industry not only requires excellent multi-tasking and customer service skills, but also well honed negotiation skills and a strong attention to detail. Not only is your server responsible for making sure your food is enjoyable and served in a timely fashion, they are required to juggle the pressures of franchise rules which stipulate NO empty glasses on any of your tables, up-sell those drinks!! and the Liquor License Act which in turn renders them your babysitter as soon as youve had a drink!
While it is generally true that you can potentially earn huge amounts of money when bartending or serving, be aware that the earnings are countered by required skills and attention to regulation. It is now the server/bartenders DUTY OF CARE to ensure that no one leaves their establishment intoxicated or becomes intoxicated on the premises. What does this mean? Specifically, it is the responsibility of the bartender or server to assess the patron who is ordering alcohol. What are they assessing? What do you have to know? A course has been developed to address these questions and to assist the service industry in making safe, assertive and customer focused decisions. This course is called Smart Serve and is recognized, in many cases, as a compulsory certification for working in the hospitality industry. It is available online or through various agencies who have been designated as delivery agents.
The Sault Community Career Centre is one of the designated delivery agencies. Recognizing that Smart Serve is a workshop designed to assist those in the restaurant industry with this balancing act, our centre facilitates this workshop in the hopes of keeping people informed, educated, and protected. Keep in mind that this workshop is intended for anyone serving alcohol. Perhaps you are a waitress, or maybe youre simply holding a Christmas party in the privacy of your own home. Whatever the case, everyone can benefit from the tactics and strategies provided through Smart Serve. Here at the Sault Community Career Centre we offer Smart Serve on a monthly basis. December is the last month where it will be offered free of charge, so phone in and sign up! In the New Year we will still be holding the workshop but there will be a charge to cover workbook costs. Sign up now and be prepared in every way for responsible alcohol service now and moving forward into 2012!
Alcohol service ..its not all black and white

Target's Newest Dance Partner? Joseph Altuzarra
"Mr. Altuzarra, an A-list personality in fashion spheres (in June, the Council of Fashion Designers of America bestowed on him its Women's Wear Designer of the Year award) remains something of a cipher to the garden-variety Target "guest," who stops by the store to stock up on kitty treats, foldaway lawn chairs and pencil cases for school-bound youngsters."

Why We Love Shrimp
by Toby Amidor in Uncategorized, June 30, 2012For years my culinary students have told me how much they love shrimp. They're pretty surprised when I tell them that these crustaceans are not only delicious, but good for you too! Here's why we love shrimp and how you can too.
Shrimp Facts
90% of the shrimp Americans consume is imported from countries in the Central and South America and Asia-Pacific regions. The hundreds of species of shrimp are typically divided into 2 basic categories: warm-water and cold-water shrimp. The rule of thumb is the colder the water, the smaller and juicier the shrimp.
Shrimp ranges in hue from deep red to pink to grayish-white to yellow and even dark green. When cooked, most shrimp shells change color due to a heat-induced chemical change.
You can buy shrimp according to their size—usually you'll find that larger shrimp cost a prettier penny. Colossal shrimp usually come 10 or less per pound, jumbo 11-15 per pound, extra-large 16-20 per pound, large 21-30 per pound, medium 31-35 per pound, small 36-45 per pound and miniature about 100 per pound. Of course, these numbers can vary from region to region. As a general rule, one pound of whole, raw shrimp yields ½ to ¾ pound of cooked meat.
Shrimp is available all year round. They can be found in various forms at your local market such as shelled or unshelled, cooked or raw and fresh or frozen.
The Nutrition Scoop
Three ounces of shrimp has 83 calories, 1 gram of fat, and 18 grams of protein. It's an excellent source of selenium and a good source of vitamins D and B12. It also has a boatload of omega-3 fats and the amino acid tryptophan.
The U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends 2 servings per week of seafood—right now, the average American only eats one serving per week. The American Heart Association also advocates eating seafood twice a week; studies have shown that it can help reduce the risk of heart disease.
Many of my clients have voiced concern about the cholesterol found in shrimp. Studies have shown that saturated fat (not cholesterol) has a greater impact on raising your bad cholesterol. Although 3-ounces of shrimp contains about 40% of your daily recommended max of cholesterol, it doesn't contain any saturated fat. In addition, shrimp is very low in calories per ounce (about 28)—which makes it one of the lowest calorie protein sources around.
Shrimp Ideas
Here are ways you can enjoy this succulent crustacean:
- Roast shrimp for a delicious twist on shrimp cocktail.
- Keep it cool with Ellie Krieger's Shrimp and Snow Pea Salad.
- A little bit of bacon goes a long way with Tyler Florence's Bacon Wrapped Shrimp.
- Nothing beats a home-cooked Jambalaya.
- Grill 'em up in this Charcoal Grilled Shrimp recipe courtesy of The Shrimp Council (pictured above).
Charcoal Grilled Shrimp
Number of Servings: 30 kebabs
2 pounds large shrimp in the shell
1/3 cup safflower oil
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
3 tablespoons dry white wine or vermouth
1 tablespoon minced shallots or green onions (white part only)
1 clove garlic minced
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh dill
Several dashes Tabasco sauce
Place shrimp in a shallow ceramic or glass baking dish. Combine remaining ingredients and pour over shrimp. Cover and chill several hours or overnight. Drain shrimp and reserve marinade. Thread on skewers or place in a wire grill basket. Grill shrimp over hot coals, turning and brushing with reserved marinade, until pink and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Serve with wooden picks.

Google Is Tracking Toward Trouble
This column was originally published on RealMoney on Jan. 23 at 10:11 a.m. EST. It's being republished as a bonus for TheStreet.com readers.
Discipline -- every good trader has it. In fact, every good businessman has it. Irrespective of the type of business you are in, there are times when it's easy to make money and times where it's a bit tougher. A good businessman knows how to cash in during the fat years and keep the business intact during the lean ones.
If you chart the progress of a well-run business, it will look like an ascending staircase -- a series of rising steps representing strong profits. The top of each step is level -- representing a period of consolidation within the business cycle.
On the other hand, a poorly run business looks more like a sine curve -- a series of peaks and valleys that, when added together, equal zero. They're just marking time rather than going anywhere.
I know a real estate developer like this. I've seen the guy go from rags to riches to rags for the past 20 years. As the real estate market gets hotter and hotter, he loads up with more and more land as his profits soar. But when the market cools off (as it always does), he's loaded up on land that he must sell at a discount. All his profits evaporate and he just hangs on ... trying to keep from defaulting on his loans. Eventually, the real estate market perks up again. As the market heats up, his profits rise. Several years into the cycle, he is close to where he was during the last bull market. But he repeats the same sin, buying from sellers who are cashing out. Does this sound like your trading? Do bull markets reveal your inner genius to the same degree that choppy markets hide it? If so, you probably need to work on your discipline. And the precursor to good discipline is managing expectations of yourself and of the market. Markets change constantly. At times they are more user-friendly and profits come easy. Other times, they are difficult. This is where discipline comes into the picture. During difficult times, are you taking on more and more risk because profits are tough to come by, or are you focusing on preserving your capital until the next favorable environment? The answer to this question tells you whether you are walking up a staircase, or just marking time. Now let's look at some charts: Google (GOOG), Petrobras (PBR - Get Report), GlobalSantaFe (GSF), S&P Small Cap 600 iShares (IJR)Petrobras
This oil & gas driller has been on a tear for quite a while, and its weekly chart shows a series of successively higher lows on both absolute (price) and relative (within Bollinger Bands) terms. This is what strong stocks do. At the same time, we can see stochastics putting in successively higher lows. I am showing stochastics on this chart to illustrate a point I've made many times before: strong stocks become overbought and remain that way for quite a while. Avoid overbought stocks and you avoid profits. The trick is the entry. If you buy as profit-takers are reaping excessive gains you risk buying at a peak in the uptrend, which often leads to selling for a loss when the stock pulls back in its natural ebb and flow. Discipline goes both ways. You need discipline on entries and exits. Every uptrend presents low-risk buying opportunities. Buy a dip at the first sign of firmness, then set your stop close to avoid excessive losses if the dip turns out to be a falling knife. You can see where the next buy point is on PBR, when it drops back toward the middle Bollinger Band. Pick any spot on this strong chart and you'll see that patience is almost always rewarded as each advance tends to be followed by a sharp pullback that offers a second chance. Wait for it here.GlobalSantaFe
GlobalSantaFe looks a lot like PBR. The stock is in a strong uptrend that is gradually picking up steam. I've highlighted the most recent volatility squeeze. After a few months of trading sideways, GSF has exploded upward now. The best entry is in your rear-view mirror. I'd wait for the stock to cool off a bit, and hope for a pullback near $50 sometime in the next month or two. That's where I'd buy.S&P Small-Cap 600 iShares

Imperials or Stormcloaks?
I think they're both assholes at the moment, so I'm just going to ignore them until I do every other questline.
Neither! Both sides whine like a bunch of basketball wives, so it's better if they just kill each other without my interference.
Neither. Krom wants nothing to do with the fascist executioners or the ignorant racists. Though I do make a point out of killing imperials and freeing their prisoners whenever I see them.
If I could choose to help the Stormcloaks and then usurp Ulfric then I would totally do that, but as it stands neither side warrants any kind of loyalty on my part. Eventually I'll probably choose the Stormcloaks just to see how the story plays out but I won't like it!
Saul Tigh was leading the empire so of course I went with them.

They both seem far too much like assholes to me. It really comes down to "extreme racism vs. liberal use of the death penalty". Which one is worse?
Imperials: money to spare for the land, men to spare for the land, one ruling body, they aren't horribly racist.
That last point is all I need. The fact that the Stormcloaks practically spit on any non-Nord is enough to make me want to pillage and burn everything in Windhelm.
For all I know the Empire treats everyone better than the Roman empire which it is based on. Life has always been shit for the majority of people.
I'm a Nord, so Stormcloaks. Both sides are being stupid, but I'm willing to bet I'll find out that Ulfric wasn't quite so "shout and run" of a murderer as time goes on.

Stormcloaks. The way the Imperials just bent over for those gold-skinned pussies and dropped Talos irks me to no end. It's one thing to remove Talos from "official" worship, it's another to let the Thalmor stroll around Skyrim acting like a roving Spanish Inquisition.
And this is coming from a Bosmer. =\
Niala is a Kajit agent working to gain intelligence and cause confusion and mayhem within the Imperial ranks inside of the northern land of Skyrim. However, she has placed this mission on hold as she explores and understands what this Dragonborn prophecy concerns.
Hmm.....Tamriel Nazis vs. Assholes who kill any criminal just becuase they can...
Ninara the Dragonborn shall have nothing to do with these idiots!
Imperials. The more I learn of the backstory of the Great War and what is going on in the larger world the more I agree that Skyrim needs to stay a part of the Empire. Things have gone real rotten in the 200 years since the 3rd Era and things arn't good. That and the Nords incredible racism plus something you learn about Ulfric in the Thalmor Embassy...
Both sides are huge dicks. Considering that I've become stupidly overpowered and am friends with a small army of powerful guilds full of some pretty ill dudes, I feel like I should be able to take them both out and start my own empire. Then I'd murder everyone for fun because I'm an even bigger dick.
Neither because both sides have a lot of people that are assholes, but at the same time both sides have some very convincing arguments. If i had to choose, Stormcloacks.
For a while I thought I would go with Stormcloaks because the imperials like to execute people and control religion, but then I walked into Windhelm and was smacked in the face with some racism. However, not all Stormcloaks seem to be total bigots--like that one guy who guides you through the beginning of the game--so right now I guess I'm still leaning towards them.
Why is that? I haven't been paying much attention to the game's political backstory@ajamafalous said:
Stormcloaks are fucking assholes.

Just help Ulfirc win then publicly execute him. That's what I plan to do.
Stormcloaks all the way. Imperials have extended their reach too far and conceded too much to the Thalmors. As a native-son of Skyrim, I'm gonna smoke them south-side fools.
I'll probably go Imperials beacause they certainly seem the lesser of two evils. However I wish I could help them AND get rid of the Thalmor.
On a side note I really want to start a new character now as a high elf, and then join the Stormcloaks. Just to mess with everyones minds...

God damn it I KNEW there was a really familiar voice actor in this game.
"Is that Saul Tigh actor Canadian?" *Googles Saul Tigh* "Yup- Canadian"
I just recently watched the entire BSG series and didn't hear a Canadian accent from that dude, but always felt Tullius was on the verge of ending a sentence with "'eh?" throughout the opening execution scene.
Hadvar apologized to me before the execution, said he'd make sure my corpse got sent back to High Rock. Seemed alright, so I followed him. From there it just seems like the game changed everything to make the Stormcloaks seem like insufferable assholes and the Imperials as people who just have to deal with it.

Ive had this problem for Months now.. Sometimes Especially Up hills It will Judder and loose power, most notibally in 4th gear, The garage could find no faults and assured me It wasnt the EGR valve which is what a First suspected. Can anyone offer me another avenue to persue? Its been to 2 Separate Garages now And both couldnt Find a fault, It definately runs a bit rougher these days and the Judder is becoming more Frequent. Any help would be great.
April 8, 2009, 7:54 pm
I would also suspect the EGR valve as this is a common fault, I assume the car has ran out of warranty?
Are you sure it's definatly an engine problem? Not the clutch slipping is it?
I suppose you could try and recreate the fault, don't drop it down a gear when it starts to hesitate, just try to drive through it, this may bring the MIL on and give you a DTC (diagnostic trouble code) to follow with a diagnostic computer.

Hope Street Group convenes the best in practitioners, business leaders and government innovators from across political aisles, to create collaborative solutions for the most pressing issues facing the country - jobs, education and healthcare – with the goal of providing economic vitality and prosperity for all Americans.
Teacher effectiveness is intimately connected to our mission of building economic opportunity. Knowing what makes teachers effective, understanding how to measure that effectiveness, helping create opportunities for all teachers to improve, and attracting and retaining the most effective teachers would transform our education system.
Ensuring a great teacher is at the front of the classroom is a critical step we can take to help students excel academically. However, the reality is that we do not know which teachers are effective because we do not know how to appropriately measure that quality. Our country's current teacher evaluation systems are inadequate.
Hope Street Group believes that new online collaboration tools have an important role to play in surfacing new ideas and voices to make a positive difference on many issues, including teacher effectiveness. Using Hope Street Group's collaborative web platform, the Virtual Engagement Platform (VEP), we recruited a diverse policy team of educators and professionals from the private and civic sectors and across 17 states. The VEP has allowed us to connect busy practitioners from across the country to a library of resources, to national experts, and to each other, through a tool that gave them a unique platform for engaging in education policy, with far-reaching implications.
Working from the premise that teacher evaluations are a meaningful part of ensuring that all students have access to a high-quality education, Hope Street Group's policy team developed the following recommendations and principles for teacher evaluations:
- Objective measures of student achievement gains must be a major component of teacher evaluation.
- Clearly defined standards of quality instruction should be used to assess a teacher's classroom performance.
- Teachers, teacher groups and unions should be included in developing and implementing teacher evaluation systems.
- Teacher evaluation systems themselves must be periodically evaluated and refined.
- Teacher evaluation systems should reflect the importance of supportive administrators and school environment to effective teaching.
- Components of teacher evaluation that rely on observation and discussion must be in the hands of instructional leaders who have sufficient expertise, training and capacity.
- Evaluations must differentiate levels of teaching efficacy to identify opportunities for professional growth, and drive rewards and consequences.
- Information from teacher evaluations should be comparable across schools and districts, and should be used to address equity in the distribution of teaching talent.

Its affiliation with the Coalition on the Academic Workforce (CAW) addresses issues of contingent academic employment, working conditions, and their effect on college and university students in the United States. Many of you participated in CAW's fall 2010 survey, which inquired about course assignments, salaries, benefits, and general working conditions as members of the contingent academic workforce experience them at the institutional level. Such data are critical to our work in SBL, the future of our Society, and the Society's context within higher education.
CAW is a group of higher education associations, disciplinary associations, and faculty organizations committed to addressing issues associated with deteriorating faculty working conditions and their effect on college and university students in the United States. When faculty members are not sufficiently supported, they are not able to provide students with the highest quality learning experience. The survey finds that faculty employed in contingent positions are not provided with the support resources necessary to excel and consistently provide such a learning experience for their students. Faculty employed part-time and paid the low wages documented in this report would likely need to find some other means for supporting themselves, which takes time and energy away from their teaching and interaction with students. Moreover, while the survey primarily addressed material working conditions, comments received at the end of the survey confirm the common belief that such faculty operate under inordinate stress and uncertainty, often self-censor in various ways out of a fear of repercussions or losing their jobs, and are left out of governance discussions that affect them.
Equally critical are data from a new study by the Delphi Project on the Changing Faculty and Student Success. The data report discusses the impact of contingent working conditions on student learning outcomes, supporting the claim that under the working conditions that many contingent faculty face, they are not able to provide students with the highest quality learning experience. See the Research and Reports tab on the Coalition's website for more information on the history, problems, and details surrounding this important segment of our field. Given the fact that most of the academic workforce is employed in full and part-time contingent positions, all faculty need to pay close attention to what is happening in their own institutions. According to data from the United States Department of Education's 2009 Fall Staff Survey, of the nearly 1.8 million faculty members and instructors who made up the 2009 instructional workforce in degree-granting two- and four-year institutions of higher education in the United States, more than 1.3 million (75.5%) were employed in contingent positions off the tenure track, either as part-time or adjunct faculty members, full-time non-tenure-track faculty members, or graduate student teaching assistants.
As a professional organization, SBL takes these issues seriously. SBL provides affordable avenues for professional enrichment and scholarly support. It convenes numerous sessions and events to bolster the pursuits of faculty members. And it works with membership and professional organizations to advocate for higher education and the importance of scholarship in society. Participation in CAW and with other organizations on issues of contingent academic employment fall among these pursuits and will continue to serve SBL members as they face the dynamics of the academic workforce and the problems that confront higher education.

JimMarch 1998 |
Cold arctic waves wash over my body as my last tears attempt to cleanse my soul. The fear and pain that has darkened my life slowly fades as my soul says good night. Images of the final judgment fill my eyes and they bring no relief. I gesture one final good-bye to my parents whose backs are all I've ever seen. Long absent smiles of old friends are filled with scorn, hatred, rejection. I dreamed of forever darkness and instead I live one last time the pain. I hear their screams, Michael, Paul, Roger, Dave, Sue, the many that have gone before. Soon my voice will be one with theirs. Does anyone hear them? Can you? Do you feel that rain? It's only the tears of sorrow of those who have passed before me. They lie in undisturbed long forgotten earthen beds. Does anyone mourn for them? Do the guilty ones ever cry alone at night? Will they be haunted by their past? The darkness is complete, the images all gone, only the cold earth to give me peace. Peace at last. Peace at last.
I was reading some of the columns from February and past issues. The stories of the young gay being tormented and driven to suicide bring me to tears. I myself have on occasion been close to suicide. I'm not a poet or a writer. I wanted to try and write about what those last minutes must be like before death comes and that's how I came up with "Peace at Last." I don't know how these kids can live with themselves after they drive some one to suicide. Do they regret the abuse and pain they inflicted or do they just say, "thank god one less faggot in the world"? In particular I was reading the Profiles in Courage section for February about Tom Beddingfield who lost his boyfriend Brandon to suicide. It makes me so angry that no one ever stands up for these kids who are being tormented like that. So I come to the title of my article, Regrets. What do I regret?
I am older than most of the columnists, in my late 20's. I've had the chance to gain enough life experience to know what to regret and see and understand the pain I have caused. Lets go back to high school. I was not out in high school. I didn't even consider myself gay even though all I thought about was guys. It was just unthinkable back then. I was raised catholic and went to catholic schools. I didn't know many kids my freshman year. Some kids my age would pick on me but it was never too bad because my older brother was very popular and so the older kids wouldn't pick on me. The guys my age would steal my books and write "fag" in them. No one ever beat me up though. Of course, I passed the abuse on to someone even sadder than I was.
Regret #1 Let's call him Eric. He was very femme. I don't know if he is gay or not. My friends and I would tease him but never as bad as I was teased. Then one day after being humiliated by some other kids I realized that I shouldn't be taking my pain out on others by making fun of them. I never bothered Eric again. I have never harassed anyone since then. I really regret how I teased him. It was never as bad what other people did because I wasn't mean about it, just having fun at his expense. But I really do feel bad about what I did. I wish there was a way to make up for it.
Regret #2 There was this other guy in my school, call him Tim. People used to pick on him (I did not). I thought he was pretty cool but he was a quiet guy, kind of nerdy. In particular this one guy used to punch him a lot in gym class in the locker room. I always stood by with the other guys never saying anything to help Tim out. I was afraid of attracting his abuse. I wish I had said something to stop him. I know the pain because there was another guy in the school, a boxer, who like to use me as a punching bag until the most popular girl in school bitched him out in front of a room full of people. She dated one of the biggest guys on the football team so I was bruise free after that. It was a bit embarrassing though because I had to have a girl stand up for me. I don't know where Tim ended up in life but I'm sure he's doing well working as a computer genius. I really wish I had stuck up for him though.
I have tried to make up for these action by trying to be nice to everyone. I have also gone to bat for friends of mine who others made fun off. I'm no saint though, but I try. We really need to spend less time hating and looking for reasons to abuse each other and spend more time trying to love each other. I heard today that the state of Maine just rescinded its gay rights laws. The movement was backed and driven by the Christian Coalition. Are they like neo-nazi, hate mongers??? The world is full of war, famine, homeless people, starvation. Can't they focus on those really important issues instead of wasting money trying to propagate hatred? Aren't Christians suppose to love one another? I'm Catholic. I was told to love everyone. I don't recall Jesus ever saying, "Love one another unless he's different from you in which case hate him, burn him, cast him out!"
To those of you out there being abused, humiliated, lonely, afraid, struggling to make it through the teen years as a gay youth, my prayers go out to. As bad as it seems, your not the only one going through it, just look at all these columnists. Be strong, eventually it gets better (I know "eventually" is a very vague time frame).
That's all this month. If you would like to send me comments, I have a new email address: firstname.lastname@example.com

At Petco, animals come first and we believe that diagnosing and treating animals is serious business! The only people qualified to diagnose a disease in an animal and treat the animal effectively are veterinarians. It is not fair to the animals to have non-medically trained people diagnose and treat them. Antibiotics are serious drugs that must be used correctly to be effective and when used incorrectly, can cause serious health concerns and microbial resistance.
Antibiotic resistance has always been a concern and it has recently become a much larger problem throughout the world. Overuse of antibiotics was recently implicated in breast cancer in women and everyday physicians are finding more and more bacterial infections are not responding to normal treatment protocols. Because of this major concern, the FDA established a 15-step protocol for antibiotic use that directly addresses the growing concern of microbial resistance. Because this is such a serious problem, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Food and Drug Administration and the National Institutes of Health co-chaired an Interagency Task Force on Antimicrobial Resistance: A PUBLIC HEALTH ACTION PLAN TO COMBAT ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE which outlines a plan to reduce antimicrobial resistance. Major steps in the FDA's 15 step protocol and the interagency task force document deal with the appropriate use of antimicrobials by qualified people. Appropriate use means the use of an antibiotic specifically designed for the specific microbe, the correct dosage of the antibiotic and the correct amount of time of treatment. These three integral factors are necessary to effectively and safely treat an animal with a microbial disease and greatly reduce the chance of microbial resistance.
As the trusted source for pet lovers, it is our responsibility to only sell products that can be used safely and effectively by the general public.
Keeping true to our philosophy, we have made the decision to remove any product that contains antibiotics from our assortment. Instead, we will focus on carrying products that contain natural ingredients which can help with certain disease conditions.
As always, any time you have a sick animal, it is better to take the animal to your veterinarian to diagnose the problem and get a treatment specific to the disease.

His answer was yes. In times of extreme need, he said, Muslims are allowed to resort to non Shariah-compliant options. Some groups, such as the ultra-orthodox Nour Party, which had decried the possible loan for violating Islam's ban on interest, are now saying that Islamic debt can't replace the $4.8 billion IMF accord. Egypt, rated 12 levels below Qatar, will borrow at about half the rate the emirate paid for sukuk in July.
Egypt's worst economic slowdown in at least a decade is swaying a debate among Islamists toward those who favor the loan, making it easier for the government to secure the "critical mass" of support that the IMF says is needed for the agreement. Indonesia and Pakistan, the world's two biggest Muslim countries by population, have both received IMF funds.

It's a lovely city and we enjoyed visiting very much. To live there, though, I think would be very expensive, especially for those of us who have to live on the weak American dollar. Good luck, and enjoy.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
There are only two authorized methods of making bumper numbers: using adhesive vinyl (stickers) and paint.
United States Army vehicles must be marked with a unit designation to foster accountability and promote attention to detail during maintenance operations. The term "bumper number" refers the combination of numbers and letters on the front and rear of a vehicle.
There are many regulations that govern the use of bumper numbers. These regulations serve to standardize markings across the army in order to improve efficiency and ensure markings add to combat readiness.
The appearance of bumper numbers are a quick and representative sampling of the maintenance status of a unit. Proficiency in marking vehicles is an excellent indicator of deeper and more substantial efficacy of a unit. Bumper number also serve to provide a quick reference for identification and minimize confusion in the fog of war.[1]
Army Technical Bulletin 43-0209, Color, Marking, and Camouflage Painting of Military Vehicles, Construction Equipment and Materials Handling Equipment, standardizes how vehicle bumper numbers are applied. The markings are divided into four positions. Positions 1 and 2 are applied on the left, while positions 3 and 4 are applied on the right. The positions identify
Anything beyond this policy such as assigning a specific number against a specific unit position is a matter of unit standard operating procedure. However, the number six has traditionally been associated with the commander of the element. For example, a Humvee assigned to the commander of Charlie Company would be designated "C06," while the 1st Platoon, Charlie Company's command vehicle would be "C16," 2nd Platoon would be "C26," etc.[2]
Army Technical Bulletin 43-0139, Painting and Instructions for Army Materiel, gives information about applying ID markings over camouflage colors. Black lettering must be used over brown or green paint, green lettering over black paint, and brown lettering over white or tan paint.
Army Regulation 750-1, Army Materiel Maintenance Policy, allows MACOM commanders to conceal bumper numbers in tactical conditions. Overseas commanders may comply with international agreements regarding vehicle bumper numbers. That's why some overseas commands paint solid light color rectangular boxes as the background for vehicle bumper numbers.

How to fit ceiling lights
A standard single pendant light fitting near the centre of the ceiling can sometimes leave a lot to be desired. As long as you can get to the ceiling void from above without too much disruption, it's not complicated to move a light to wherever you really need it. Alternatively, you can boost your light levels by adding extra pendants which you operate either by the existing switch or by a new one. You'll find that pre-wired lampholder-plus-flex combinations are widely available.

"Avgolemono" is a traditional Greek chicken rice soup but in short we always refer to it as "Avgolemono". A whole chicken is usually boiled to accompany the soup but also to take the broth and cook the rice in it. It is then thickened to a creamy consistency by the addition of avgolemono sauce (literally meaning eggs and lemon juice).
When the avgolemono is added, the soup thickens after a while because of the animal fat contained in the dish (chicken broth). However, if you are cooking something lean i.e. chicken without the skin on, fish, turkey or chicken mince, if you want the sauce to thicken you must add a couple tablespoons of olive oil while cooking.
Today it was a rather cold day here in Athens 2 – 8o C (35 – 46 F), so it was a good opportunity to make some soup. Avgolemono usually starts with a chicken broth, so I boiled chicken (see tip How to… clean and boil a chicken) and in the chicken stock I prepared the soup.
The recipe is included in my cookbook Mint, Cinnamon & Blossom Water, Flavours of Cyprus, Kopiaste as well as in Volume 1 of my e-cookbook, sold on all Amazon stores.
