Paula's Home Cooking is a Daytime Emmy Award-winning Food Network show hosted by Paula Deen. Deen's primary culinary focus is Southern cuisine and familiar comfort food that is popular with Americans. In the show, classic dishes such as pot roast, fried okra, and pecan pie are the norm, and overly complicated or eccentric recipes are usually eschewed. Dishes that are flavorful and familiar are spotlighted, although the fat content and calorie count of the meals are often very high. Paula also shows off vignettes of Savannah, Georgia, where she co-owns with her sons Jamie and Bobby, The Lady & Sons.
Deen's popularity, spurned by the show, led to a small role in the feature film Elizabethtown.
Despite its seemingly Southern atmosphere, Paula's Home Cooking was taped in upstate New York until 2006; new shows will be taped at Deen's new home near Savannah. Deen often has her sons as guests on the show. They too proved to be popular among Food Network's audience and now have their own show, Road Tasted, similar to Rachael Ray's Tasty Travels. Deen's second husband, Michael Groover, also appears sporadically as a guest, and Food Network taped the Deen-Groover wedding in 2004 as a special edition of the show.
The success of Paula's Home Cooking led to a line of cookbooks, a magazine, other television shows and specials, and related merchandise.

The most used currency in the world. The US Dollar or 'Greenback' or 'Buck' as you may hear it called is the most traded currency in the World.
It has been said that if you have dollars in your pocket you can get by in many continents of the world.
The US Dollar is famed for its monotone green colouring and pictures of US President's, however in recent the years the US Federal Bank has started to introduce more colour as they strive to introduce more security features to make the notes more difficult to forge.
When purchasing this currency, don't forget to ask for the 'US' Dollar specifically by name as the Dollar name is also widely used by other countries such as Barbados, Singapore, Zimbabwe, Hong Kong, Australia, Canada and New Zealand.
Like the euro, the US Dollar is easy to obtain and readily available on demand at all eurochange bureaux. It is also available in Travellers cheques and is easily loaded on to a prepaid US Dollar prepaid card.
These convenient and alternative method of payment have separate terms and conditions that you need to be aware of, please read about them under the separate product descriptions.
With US house prices currently depressed the US has become one of the most popular countries to purchase an overseas property in recent years. If you are thinking about purchasing a US property or already own a property there the our International Payments team can provide excellent guidance on how to protect yourself against any adverse currency movements as well provide safe, and cheap transfers to the USA.
Businesses too can benefit from these services, with more and more business being done in the United States it makes sense to use a specialist foreign exchange company that that can ensure you're regularly getting the best value for your money.
Our competitive packages and flexible approach enable us to adapt a tailored plan based on your own personal or your businesses circumstances.

On June 6, Petty Officer 2nd Class Kevin Gordon finally did it, when a small inflatable boat caught fire on a voyage to
A wrestler and star running back for the Marlins, Gordon had scholarship offers from a couple of Division II schools to play football, but he opted instead to join the Navy.
"I knew the dive program was a good thing to do, but they were overmanned," Gordon said during a phone interview from the USS Bataan, a multipurpose amphibious assault ship somewhere in the
He trained instead to be a helicopter rescue swimmer. His training included spending about a year at
Otherwise, the training was intense.
There's a training drill called sharks and daisies that Gordon said was more intense than the others. It combines physical and tactical skills, and it's designed to prepare rescuers to deal with a panicked victim. Someone playing the role of the victim grabs hold of the rescuer, who must escape. A recruit was killed during a sharks and daisies drill in 1988.
"They forge into your mind that failure is not accepted at all," he said of his training.
Gordon's wrestling training helped him in the drill, and he became a rescue swimmer.
"We're basically the world's 911 in the
He's been called on 100 times, he said, but he went into the water for the first time June 6. The inflatable boat was carrying 50 or 60 people, mostly from
He said he was not scared of dying; he was scared of failing, which in that situation could very well mean death.
The first man he came to was near death, suffering from burns and hypothermia, he said. But when Gordon tried to grab him, the man panicked and fought.
All those sharks and daisies drills paid off; he got the man to safety and went back — again and again.
"I got 11 guys out of the water that day," he said.
Gordon's third deployment ends in the fall, but he's not ready to give such exciting work.
"I plan on making (the Navy) a career," Gordon said. "I need that adrenaline rush every once in a while."

New restaurant for Grimsby
Posted: May 13, 2013|
DINERS can feast their eyes upon a new restaurant within the heart of Grimsby.
Sage aims to become the hottest new name in town – replacing the former Swigs real ale bar in Osborne Street.
The new owners Ian Hotson and his wife Sabine Heuchert wanted to create an up-market restaurant that would suit all taste buds.
For Ian, it is also a chance to own his first English business and show off his culinary skills.
Being a chef for the past 23 years, he has plenty up his sleeve to treat his diners with.
He said: "I have invested £35,000 in bringing the place back to a standard it should be at.
"We are more a restaurant than a bar as I think it is a more sustainable business in this current economic climate.
"I offer rustic-style food and I will change my menu regularly, especially the specials."
Ian creates all his food fresh on site and buys locally sourced products to help out other independent businesses.
Sage is a family business and with the help of his wife, nephew, sister-in-law and others, Ian is excited about making his restaurant a big success.
The name was the brainchild of Ian, as sage is his favourite herb to use in food.
"I will have an official opening on Friday, where people have to make a booking before turning up, as I already have tables filled," he said.
"Every Friday and Saturday evening, I will open Sage as a steak house – with six types of steak to choose from."
Menus in Sage are written on chalk boards on the walls, which Ian says will be easier when changing them regularly.
His culinary background has seen him own a restaurant in Spain and be head chef in various places across the country.
He said: "I have gained a lot of experience over the years and I believe it shows in the food I produce.
"Before taking over this place I was head chef at the Red Lion in Market Rasen and people from Grimsby would travel out to try my food.
"I have built up a good reputation across North East Lincolnshire and beyond, and I hope to keep doing so, as I see Sage being a long-term business.
"In the future my aim will be to expand and open up other restaurants across the area."
Sage will be open from Monday to Thursday 8.30am to 7.30pm and on Friday and Saturday, 8.30am to 11pm, with food service finishing at 9.30pm.

<div id="Content" readability="395.924025408">March 18, 2011
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. - The Penn State Nittany Lion wrestling team, under the direction of 2011 Big Ten Coach of the Year Cael Sanderson, has added four All-Americans to its all-time roster as Andrew Long (Creston, Iowa), junior Frank Molinaro (Barnegat, N.J.), freshman David Taylor (St. Paris, Ohio) and sophomore Quentin Wright (Wingate, Pa.) all advanced to the national semifinals and clinched All-America status.
For Long, Molinaro and Wright, the honor is a repeat of past years. Long was the national runner-up at 125 for Iowa State a year ago and now is a Penn State All-American at 133. Molinaro finished eighth at 141 two years ago and took fifth at 149 last year. At 149 again this year, he becomes Penn State's 19th three-time All-American. Wright placed sixth at 174 two years ago as a true freshman and red-shirted last season. He is now an All-American at 184. For Taylor, undefeated at 37-0 as a freshman, it is his first at 157.
Cornell holds a slim half point lead in the team race. The Big Red have 61.0 while Penn State is right behind with 60.5. Iowa is in third with 52.0 while American has 49.0 and Oklahoma State has 44.5.
Long became a Penn State All-American and earned his second All-America honor overall with a thrilling pin of Central Michigan's Scotti Sentes in his quarterfinal bout. Sentes notched an early takedown in the bout and controlled Long for much of the first period, but the third seeded sophomore worked his way into a quick reversal and pin of Sentes at the 2:46 mark to move into tonight's national semifinals where he will face No. 2 seed Andrew Hochstrasser of Boise State.
True freshman Andrew Alton (Mill Hall, Pa.), the sixth seed at 141, lost a hard-fought 2-0 decision to No. 3 seed Boris Novochkov of Cal Poly in his quarterfinal bout. Neither wrestler had a takedown, but Novochkov rode Alton out in the second period and then picked up an escape in the third for the 2-0 win. Alton moves into the consolation bracket tonight where one more win will make him an All-American and keep his hopes of a third place finish alive.Molinaro, the second-seed at 149, took care of No. 7 seed Mario Mason of Rutgers in his semifinal to become a three-time All-American. Molinaro used a first period takedown and two escapes to offset a late Mason takedown. Molinaro becomes Penn State's 19th three-time All-American. He now will take on No. 6 seed Jason Chamberlain of Boise State in the semifinals tonight.
Taylor, the third seed at 157, took care of sixth-seed Derek St. John of Iowa in a 6-3 decision. Once again, Taylor not taken down by the Hawkeye and used two takedowns, an escape and a riding time point to become an All-American as a freshman and move into the national semifinals where he will face No. 2 seed Steve Fittery of American. Taylor becomes Penn State's first freshman All-American since Molinaro and Quentin Wright turned the trick in 2009. He improves to 37-0 on the year.
Red-shirt freshman Ed Ruth (Harrisburg, Pa.), the No. 2 seed at 174, was injured in the second period of his quarterfinal bout against No. 7 Nick Amuchastegui of Stanford. Ruth notched a first period takedown but Amuchastegui got a takedown at the end of the first period to lead 3-2 after one. Ruth chose down to start the second and the Cardinal turned him three times to lead 9-2 at the end of the second. During the ride-out, Ruth was injured and could not continue. He returns tonight in consolation action tonight.
Wright, the ninth-seed at 184, simply dominated top-seeded Chris Honeycutt of Edinboro in his quarterfinal bout. Wright took the Scot grappler down once in the first period and twice in the third to roll to an impressive 7-3 win and become a two-time All-American. The Centre County native has reeled off seven straight wins in the post-season (four to win the Big Ten title and two three here at NCAAs). Wright will face 12th-seeded Grant Gambrall of Iowa in the national semifinals tonight.
Junior Cameron Wade (Twinsburg, Ohio), the ninth-seed at heavyweight, was taken down in the first period by top-seeded Zach Rey of Lehigh. During a scramble late in the period, Wade suffered an injury and, while he did continue into the second period, was not able to continue early in the middle stanza and defaulted. Wade will wrestle in tonight's consolations with the chance to finish as high as third still alive.
Senior Brad Pataky (Clearfield, Pa.) ended his Nittany Lion career with a tough 8-1 loss to Michigan's Sean Boyle in the consolations at 125. Boyle countered a number of early Pataky shots for takedowns to grab the victory. Pataky went 1-2 in his third trip to NCAAs and posted a 12-7 record during an injury plagued season. Pataky leaves Penn State as a three-time NCAA qualifier with an 86-36 career record.
Penn State went 4-4 in session three and is now to 19-5 through three sessions of the tournament. The Nittany Lions picked up two more bonus points thanks to Long's pin. Penn State now has 10.5 bonus points from three pins, three majors and a tech fall. Penn State's four guaranteed All-Americans ups the all-time total at Penn State to 170. Penn State still has three grapplers just one win from All-America status (Alton at 141, Ruth at 174 and Wade at heavyweight). Penn State's best All-American performance in recent history was five in 1993. The record is eight set in 1987.
The 2011 NCAA Championships continue Friday, March 18, at 7 p.m. with session four featuring the national semifinals. ESPN continues its full coverage of the three-day event at 7 p.m. (ESPNU & ESPN3 simulcast). Action will then continue on Saturday as follows: Saturday, March 19 - Session five, 11 a.m. (ESPNU & ESPN3 simulcast) - Session six/championship finals, 7:30 p.m. (ESPN). All broadcasts are in HD, including ESPN3. The All Penn State events will once again air live on Forever Broadcasting's WRSC

Album Summary
- Rudolf Kehrer (Piano)
Notes & Reviews:
Melodiya presents Rudolf Kehrer, one of the most extraordinary and original representatives of the Russian piano school of the 20th century. This remarkable musician is a rare combination of scientific and creative talents in one man. Born to a musical family, Kehrer started to study music at an early age but later became a mathematics teacher. After a long break, he returned to his music studies. After Kehrer won First Prize at the All-Union Competition of Music Performers in 1961, he achieved his long-awaited fame. In 41 years of performing activities, the pianist gave over 2,000 concerts and taught at the conservatories in Tashkent, Moscow, and Vienna. Living at the junction of Russian and German cultures, Kehrer included in his repertoire Viennese classics and Russian composers. However, he always showed a preference for romanticism.Notes & Reviews:

WEBSITE OF THE DAY - Ntrails
This is another one of those sites where we really wish we'd been in the room when they were discussing the name. Whoever game up with www.ntrails.com is either a certified genius or a stranger to the English language.
No, it's not a site about offal, and despite any other slightly odd connotations thrown up by its moniker, Ntrails is a simple enough premise: it's an online treasure hunt. (Ntrails is also the name of the snail mascot, which still doesn't make much sense to us). Play games strewn across the Internet and come back to type in your resulting pass codes. If you're first past the post, you pick up the prize money, which has just been doubled to a handsome $500 - just for playing games.
The hunt, and the games you find along the way, should keep you busy for quite a while, and we reckon if this one takes off the prize money could grow with it.
If you have a website that you want to tell us about email us via the feedback form.

Odd how the South was always a Democratic stronghold.
My opinion is it goes along race lines. The President is not liked simply because he is black. The newspaper did not endorse Obama because "we simply disagree with some of his practices, political beliefs and policies. No big deal." I find this odd for the fact that 2 of these , his practices and policies of which the large one is Health Care, is formed on Romney's own plan. I don't' know what political belief he would have that Romney would be so different on but to say its "no big deal" is a disservice. If it's no big deal, why do an endorsement at all? Does the paper think that their opinion does not influence people? Of course it does, that's why they do editorials….to influence people. It is a big deal.
I would also like to note that the paper did not say that their candidate lost so we are behind the elected President. They did point out that the cycle will start again in 3 years.
It will start in 2. It will start when the Republicans do what Republicans do….start the impeachment process, lets waste more time and money and accomplish nothing.

It is estimated that over 30 million PowerPoint presentations are created, day in, day out, across the world. PowerPoint has a justifiable reputation as being both useful and user friendly but with familiarity often comes contempt - leading to the modern phenomenon of "Death by PowerPoint". In the wrong hands PowerPoint is a fickle mistress that will lead the unwary into meandering presentations which bore audiences with over simplified messages and eye watering graphics.
PowerPoint can be your best friend or your worst enemy….and you wouldn't want an enemy taking the stage with you for your next important presentation would you?
So what are Eyeful doing to address this situation?
But we're not alone in this opinion.
In an incredibly short period of time, Eyeful has become a force behind high-end, high-quality, high impact PowerPoint presentations for global companies like Microsoft, eBay, American Express, Adobe and Coca-Cola.
But don't take our word for it. Check out our samples here or listen to what some of our clients are saying about the impact we had on their previously homegrown, ineffective sales or marketing PowerPoint.
The feedback is remarkable....

Since 2008, the center of the global casinos market and online gambling industry has shifted from the United States, specifically Las Vegas and Atlantic City, to China (i.e. Macau), and this trend is expected to continue. Propelling this shift has been the recent casino openings in Macau; as of 2013, there are 33 casinos.
Additionally, casino openings in other parts of Asia are expected in the near term. Singapore, with its two mega-casino developments, already has made a significant splash to the extent of rivaling Las Vegas. However, Chinese government activities, along with those of other Asian countries, limit domestic access to their casinos, and therefore, these casinos heavily rely on international and particularly VIP tourist gaming revenue.

Houston, TX. (PRWEB) September 16, 2012
After many experts and investors alike have begun to form questions on the new ambitious effort from the Federal Reserve to aid in the recovery of the housing market, Real Estate Investing Wealth has announced a new free webinar about buying real estate in today's market.

Log splitter accident
I got sloppy with the new log splitter for just one instant after splitting for more than 5 hours. The log caught my palm and ripped it up good. Then the doc at one of those "doc in a box" place did a crappy job of sewing, so a full two weeks later, another doc sliced it open and sewed it up right. My good hand too. Now, I can't do anything for a couple more weeks. Typing is quite a chore.
Lesson learned: pay attention all the time.
Re: Log splitter accident
Ouch! Sorry to hear that and this is one time we don't want to see pictures :eek:
Re: Log splitter accident
It takes a bigger man than most to admit making a mistake that leads to an injury, albeit one of the most important body parts. Thanks for alerting us to the importance of safety and paying attention.
Re: Log splitter accident
Its a miracle we make it to adulthood. I should be maimed or dead many times over, but don't feel secure enough in my manhood to tell all here ;)
I will say though that my right hand is still mostly numb after a 'specialist' operated on the nerve in my right cubital tunnel (elbow's crazy bone)....and that was ten years ago.
Glad you are on the mend. :)
Re: Log splitter accident
my log splitter requires both hands to operate it but without a third hand to hold the log, I lift up my knee to hold down one of the handles and carefully control the hydraulic ram with the left hand and very carefully hold the log with my right.
We often need a reality check just to keep us in line but I sympathise with your situation.
Quak doctors should be stricken from the list.
I had one in a large public hospital when I cut throught my lh thumb nail with a friction saw and after coming out of the op pulled off the plaster cast which was strangualting the ever swelling thumb. I also had to remove the stainless pin inserted to hold the bone fragment in place but he had no idea how to grip the ceramic sphere on the end wit a pair of pointy nosed pliers that he had in hand.
Re: Log splitter accident
Glad to hear there was no loss of appendages. I most certainly can relate. My wife is amazed that I still have all of my didgets after 30 yrs of being a power tool junky, while many times not following proper safety protocals (or experimenting trying to find a new use).
As for log splitting, lucky with the axe, but have been hit it the shins a couple of times by flying wood with the hydraulic (its really not as harmless as it looks).
Re: Log splitter accident
Familiarity breeds inattentiveness and poor decisions.. we all do it.
My grandfather was chainsawing and the chain broke.. came across his face between his eyes and down the side of his nose.
Re: Log splitter accident
Sorry to hear that but thanks for posting this, we all need a reminder every now and then.
Re: Log splitter accident
Is this the model of log splitter you were using ?

This year, and the past few, the Philadelphia Eagles have been ranked one of the best teams in the league. As of 12/05/04 their current ranking is third, with a record of 11-1. The Pittsburgh Stealers and the New England Patriots also have the same record of 11-1. This is the year for the Eagles though. In the past they have come so close to a championship. This season they have not only been dominating the NFC East division, but also the entire NFC and this year they are most likely to be NFC champions. Donavan McNabb is an excellent quarterback, one of the best in the NFL, and has done amazing things for the team. This season he has 256 completions out of 393 attempts with a 65.1% rating. His projected stats are supposed to place him as having the 6th best quarterback season in history. Brian Westbrook has lead with 705 rushing yards, and 566 receiving yards, with one of the top receivers in the NFL, Terrell Owens, with 1130 receiving yards. The Eagles have beaten every team except for the Stealers who in week 9 defeated them with a 27-3 victory. I definitely like the Eagles and I hope that this year is there year. They've been so close that they deserve to achieve their goal. With such teams so closely ranked like the Patriots though, who were on a historic winning streak previously in the season, we'll see what the outcome is. With there next two games against St. Louis and Dallas, they are going to dominated them, and McNabb is likely to surpass his projected stats, as they have two of the worst pass defenses in the league.

It's nice to have a good regular season, but as the few good regular seasons the Vikes have had reveals to us that the playoffs are a different season.
Posted by: Christopher Schultz at December 9, 2004 3:32 PM
You know, you are right, Eagles are having their best season, and it seems that if this has all to do something with Terrel Owen, coming from 49ers to them. Though I don't like them, I really want to see an NFC team winning super ball this season, it is been a while since Saint Louise Rams. I also aggree that the ployoffs are different as Chris said. You may be the best tean in your division or your league, but that won't prove anything, till you win playoffs and went on from there. I also wish that Vikes could make to the playoffs and afterward compete against Eagles maybe for the NFC champion, and if Vikes comeout to the playoffs & compete agains Eagles, it would be a good match to watch and much Anticipated, since we lost to them earlier in the season.

Actors from Spirit of Shakespeare, a University of Texas student organization, will perform scenes from King Lear as part of a panel discussion entitled "'By Order of Law': Shakespeare's King Lear" on Wednesday, September 23, 2009, in the Eidman Courtroom at the University of Texas School of Law from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m.
The event, free and open to the public, begins with a reception at 6:30 p.m. in the Jamail Pavilion adjacent to the Eidman Courtroom in the Law School's John B. Connally Center. (See Maps and Directions for information about getting to the Eidman Courtroom.)
The panel's title, "By Order of Law," taken from an early speech in the play by the Earl of Gloucester, raises issues central to King Lear: legitimacy, inheritance, and proprietary rights within the kingdom and the family.
This event is part of an annual program, Actors from the London Stage (AFTLS), a celebration of Shakespeare at the University of Texas-Austin. Since 1999, AFTLS has brought its unique educational and theatrical program, which features a troupe of five classically trained actors from major English theaters, to this campus for week-long residencies. During that week, the actors will teach twenty-five classes and workshops; offer a one-person show in the Harry Ransom Center's Poetry on the Plaza series; and perform, with minimal props, King Lear.
Similar panels exploring other Shakespeare texts and legal issues have been offered every year since the 2002 interdisciplinary conference, "From Text to Performance: Law and Other Performing Arts," a week-long investigation of interpretations of drama, music, law, and art. It included four different productions of the courtroom scene in act 4 of The Merchant of Venice.
Such legal and related issues will be discussed by the panelists, who include:
Residency events
Wednesday, September 30, noon, "The Sand and the Oyster: The Poetry of Carol Ann Duffy" by Caroline Devlin. Harry Ransom Center plaza. Free admission.
Wednesday, September 30, 7:30 p.m., King Lear. Actors from the London Stage performance (Q&A with actors to follow). University of Texas at Austin, B. Iden Payne Theatre, Winship Drama Building.

Friday, October 2, 7:30 p.m., King Lear. Actors from the London Stage performance. University of Texas at Austin, B. Iden Payne Theatre, Winship Drama Building.
Saturday, October 3, 7 p.m., King Lear. Actors from the London Stage performance. Winedale Theatre Barn, Winedale Historical Center, Round Top, Texas.

Some weeks, it's impossible not to feel the love. Christian conservative Pat Robertson embraced gay-friendly divorcé Rudy Giuliani. Rudy stood by former police commissioner Bernard Kerik, though it didn't stop a grand jury from indicting Kerik for tax evasion and conspiracy. Most-eligible bachelor Mike Bloomberg inspired Newsweek to run a mash note about his presidential prospects on its cover, while the Post refused to believe the mayor wasn't pining for Eliot Spitzer's job, even after he declared, "I categorically will not run for governor."
Hillarymania ebbed in New Hampshire in the wake of her driver's-license gaffe; new polls showed her lead over Barack Obama shrinking from 23 percent to a mere 10. Paparazzi hunted Paul McCartney in the Hamptons, hoping to catch him making out with his new squeeze, a member of the MTA board. Striking writers Tina Fey and Seth Myers walked picket lines at Rockefeller Center and Silvercup Studios; a Boston priest was busted for stalking ex-SNL scribe Conan O'Brien. Alec Baldwin phoned in to WNYC to complain about the Upper West Side's filth and preponderance of "bars and kind of mid-priced restaurants."
A machete-proficient Queens bodega owner hacked off the finger of an armed would-be robber. "Broker to the stars" Linda Stein's 26-year-old assistant, Natavia Lowery, was arrested for her murder; apparently Stein "just kept yelling at her." The city handed out its first grades to public schools, and nearly 150 got D's and F's. Buyers at a Sotheby's auction took a pass on B-level works by Picasso and Van Gogh. Developers knocked down a pre–Civil War warehouse on Pearl Street to make room for another luxury building. A Web designer who missed a connection with a rosy-cheeked cutie on the 5 train posted a Web page looking for the "woman of my dreams" — and landed a date with her just 48 hours later. But a few billion dollars of write-downs on Wall Street, and a few discouraging words from Fed chief Ben Bernanke, and our long fling with the bull market appears in jeopardy.—Mark Adams

The U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Bridgeport has dismissed an involuntary bankruptcy petition filed by former Lighthouse Inn operator Christopher Plummer, clearing the way for a foreclosure auction of the property.
Chief Judge Albert S. Dabrowski, in an opinion issued last week, agreed with the Business Loan Center LLC, holder of the Lighthouse Inn's first mortgage, that "dismissal of this case is in the best interests of creditors and the estate."
McGrath Hotels LLC had been the owner of the Lighthouse Inn before it was placed in receivership as part of foreclosure proceedings earlier this year.
Plummer filed a Chapter 11 petition against McGrath Hotels as principal in the Lighthouse Group of Connecticut LLC, which has a second mortgage on the property. The filing in September had occurred just a day before the property was scheduled to be auctioned and forced a last-minute cancellation of the much-anticipated sale of one of New London's prime pieces of real estate.
New London attorney Michael Sheehan, in arguing against the Chapter 11 filing last month on behalf of the Business Loan Center, called The Lighthouse Group of Connecticut a "debtor in bad faith." He said it was not entitled to file an involuntary petition because it is not listed as a legal entity in Connecticut and a change of the group's name from the Lighthouse Trust was not properly executed.
Sheehan also argued that bankruptcy code requires a property with so many claims against it to have at least three petitioners to force it into Chapter 11, rather than the just the one that filed. He pointed out that the bankruptcy petition was filed by Plummer rather than by a licensed attorney, as required by law.
In addition, he said Sheehan's brief said the value of Lighthouse Inn has declined from $2.9 million to $1 million in the year it has been closed. That's about half the amount the Business Loan Center is owed.
Sheehan had asked that the Chapter 11 petition be dismissed so that Lighthouse Inn assets could be immediately liquidated.
Chief Judge Dabrowski agreed with Sheehan and ordered the Lighthouse Group of Connecticut not to file an involuntary petition against McGrath Hotels for at least a year, unless it is represented by a licensed attorney. He also ordered that a filing by Lighthouse Group in the next two years would not trigger an automatic further delay of foreclosure proceedings.

February 23, 1995
By Pamela Cressey
Their names are left to us on Plat map number 2 in James Lawrason will dated 1820. The map documents in careful script nine lots which Lawrason owned near the corner of South Alfred and Wolfe streets. While accurately setting forth the measurements of each lot at 25 or 26 feet, the plat also recorded these men's names as leasing the lots.
Even more helpful for those who enjoy historical pursuits, the plat contains the annual ground rent to be paid to Lawrason by each renter. Wouldn't you like to rent a one or two story house in Old Town today for the 1800 rates-from $18.75 to $25 per year?
These are interesting economic facts of life nearly 200 years ago. They also are the stuff from which real history is made; in this case, Alexandria's African American history. While these men and their families may not have written books, made scientific discoveries, or led revolts, they are the people that formed Alexandria's past and its vital black neighborhoods.
They are far from invisible in the written record, but you have to deliberately seek out and cross-reference their facts from the will book, the tax assessor ledger and the census page. By placing their names together house-by-house as Alfred Street neighbors, we can gain a geographical perspective and witness the formation of the Bottoms free black neighborhood.
In 1804, Sampson Sumby leased one of the Lawrason lots with a one story house for "20 silver dollars and 83 cents U.S. money"per year. His agreement was not an ordinary rental; he entered into a ground rent arrangement which could be perpetuated through a will. We know little about the man, except about how he obtained his freedom:
I, Mordecai Miller for 200 dollars paid to me by Sampson Sumby who formly a slave unto Sarah Ann Boggess for life & by me purchased of her for the purpose of enabling him to procure his liberation from bondeage Do manumit & liberate said slave. January 25-1801.
Doctor Pompey Porer (Poorer)lived two doors away, similarly leasing his land from the Lawrasons. This may be the same man called Negro Pompey manumitted in 1799 by Joseph White Harrison "for diverse good causes,...more especially for and in consideration of the sum of forty pounds current money of Virginia." Both Porer and Sumby's heirs continued their leases at least until 1850, although the lots were vacant by then. The Johnstons, Beckleys, Coberts, and Gordon/Goddards resided on their family lots, providing neighborhood continuity for 50 years. Their other neighbor to the north provided a focal point for the area until the present day. Can you answer this Historical Pursuit question?

Medical Marginality in South Asia
Situating Subaltern Therapeutics
Edited by David Hardiman, Projit Bihari Mukharji
Routledge – 2012 – 204 pages
Routledge – 2012 – 204 pages
Examining the world of popular healing in South Asia, this book looks at the way that it is marginalised by the state and medical establishment while at the same time being very important in the everyday lives of the poor. It describes and analyses a world of 'subaltern therapeutics' that both interacts with and resists state-sanctioned and elite forms of medical practice. The relationship is seen as both a historical as well as ongoing one.
Focusing on those who exist and practice in the shadow of statist medicine, the book discusses the many ways in which they try to heal a range of maladies, and how they experience their marginality. The contributors also provide a history of such therapeutics, in the process challenging the widespread belief that such 'traditional' therapeutics are relatively static and unchanging. In focusing on these problems of transition, they open up one of the central concerns of subaltern historiography. This is an important contribution to the history of medicine and society, and subaltern and South Asian studies.

Good short story. Haldir sentimental, that is so sweet! Yes please continue. But I think a week has come and go already as it is 6/20/2008. A day after my grandsons 6th birthday. LOL!!
Dude! this wasn't a bad icky romance fic. It was actually pretty good! no i'm joking. about the icky part anyways.
Author's Response: You can't stand romance, can you, Meg?! Heehee. Maybe I'll torture you a little more. I'm glad you liked it anyways! ~Mel
This is a lovely little romance, better than anything I could do. If I attempted this genre, they would probably end up taking poison and dying (hmm... idea sparks...). If all your Haldir romances connected he would defenitely get around!
Author's Response: I'm glad you liked it. You should try to write a Haldir romance; I don't think it'd suck! And BTW, my Haldir romances are NOT connected unless I say so, though I believe that Elves only have one mate in their long lives. Thanks for the review! ~Mel

The Queen of Flamenco & Spanish Dance

Recommended for all audiences
Pilar Rioja is known worldwide as the Queen of Spanish Dance. She was born in Torreón, México to Spanish parents who hailed from the Rioja region of Spain. From the time she could walk, her parents encouraged Pilar to dance, and supported her pursuit of a career in the arts.
Ms. Rioja studied many forms of dance, but it was in Spain where she combined her modern, ballet and classical dance training with traditional Spanish dance forms. She has studied with Oscar Tarriba in Mexico, and in Spain with Regla Ortega, Samperio and El Estampío. She studied the classical bolero style with Angel Pericet. Ms. Rioja considers her teacher, Manolo Vargas, to be one of her greatest influences.
With her extensive knowledge and experience, Pilar has become one of the world's great teachers of Spanish Dance. For many years, she had an academy in Mexico City where she worked hard to keep Spanish Dance alive. Pilar has taught in such far away countries as Armenia, and to the dancers of the Bolshoi Ballet in Moscow. She is such a beloved figure in Moscow, that a statue of the Queen of Spanish Dance by David Narodnisky was erected in a town square. Other statues of Pilar have been erected in the cities of Torreón (by Mexican sculptor, Joaquín Arias) and Morelia (by José Luis Padilla). Pilar has been an inspiration for many artists' work including: a sculpted bust by Arnold Taylor, drawings and paintings by Hector Javier, paintings by Spanish artist Antonio Peyri, a collection of songs and poetry by Luis Ríus, poetry by Juan Duch and Alfonso Simone and recently an audiovisual production by Neil Goldberg in New York.
Pilar has performed in the United States, México, Latin America, Spain, Austria, Bulgaria and throughout the former Soviet Union. In 1996, she performed in England with the BBC Proms Orchestra. 1997 marked Pilar Rioja's 25th Anniversary season with Repertorio Español. She began this landmark year with an invitation to perform with the Brooklyn Philharmonic in March of 1997. She then began her season at Repertorio Español followed by special guest performances with the Oregon Symphony Orchestra in Portland, and the San Antonio Symphony in Texas. In July of 1997 she participated in the prestigious Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival in Massachusetts (her second invitation to participate).
Pilar first came to the attention of Gilberto Zaldívar, Founding President and Producer Emeritus of Repertorio Español, when he went to see her perform at Carnegie Recital Hall. "When I first saw her, I knew she was a talented and magical performer; her talent shined on that stage, so I invited her to come see our theater. It was an instant love affair, and she has had a season with us ever since."
Note: Seats for weekday matinee performances for students are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. Please arrive early.

A five day strike by the Kenya Truckers Association (KTA) has led to low production in Ugandan factories as supplies from Mombasa dry up.
More than 235 trucks were early this month booked for breaking weight restrictions at the Mariakani weighbridge 50km outside Mombasa. The subsequent strike left about 1,000 trucks stranded but has now been called off.
"There is a backlog of cargo at Mombasa because of the strike though cargo has started moving lately. Goods that were destined to arrive in Kampala around Christmas may be delayed," said Simon Odeke of Damco, a logistics company. B.W. Rwabwogo, the Mukwano Group general manager pointed out that his company has been out of production for the past eight days as raw materials were held up at the border during the strike.
"Many companies have been affected and supplies of most imported goods have dwindled. We need the government
to intervene to solve the impasse in Kenya," he said.
KTA which boasts of 400 members with around 50,000 trucks suspended its five day strike four days ago after the Kenyan government delayed the implementation of new truck weight laws till the end of January 2013.
The number of trucks entering Uganda each day had fallen to around 263, from 600 at the beginning of the strike on the 3rd of December. Richard Kamajugo, the Uganda Revenue Authority (URA) says that the number of trucks as now gone up to 500 each day.
"The government of Kenya has given the truck drivers up to the end of January 2013. We have started to see increased truck activity," he said. Under the East African Community load limits, a 12-tyre truck must hold a maximum of 8 tons at the front axle (pair of tyres), 24 tons in the mid-section and 18 tons at the back section.
While the truck drivers argue that fines must only be given against trucks that weigh more than the maximum gross weight of 48 tonnes, the Kenya highways authorities have insisted on weighing each axle of the trucks.
"Cargo tends to shift places whenever, cargo trucks climb, descend, stop and brake while on the road. It is even worse for liquid cargo. There is no way for drivers to redistribute the cargo especially when the cargo is sealed," Rwabwogo argued.
"While we support the actions of the Kenyan government to protect the roads, they should adopt a feasible approach," he added.
The fines for overloading for first time offenders range between $60 (sh160,000) and $2,380 (sh6.2m) while repeat offenders are fined between $119 (sh300,000) and $4,760 (sh12.4) at each weigh bridge depending on the excess weight.

Chandler blue jeans recycler going green
PHOENIX -- Bonded Logic, a Valley company that turns recycled blue jeans into home insulation products, will be the site for one of the largest private solar energy projects in state history.
Sean Desmond with Bonded Logic said ground will be broken Tuesday at 10 a.m. on the Talons Solar Field, a 65,000-square-foot system that will use 1,300 solar panels.
"As far as I know, in the state of Arizona, we'll be the only facility that's making a green and sustainable product that is partially powered by solar energy," Desmond said. "It will help power our plant by providing 26 percent of our annual consumption. That's enough to power 57 homes for a year."
The massive solar panel project should be wrapped up by mid-summer.

The Exorcist is a 1973 American horror film directed by William Friedkin, adapted from the 1971 novel of the same name by William Peter Blatty and based on the exorcism case of Robbie Mannheim, dealing with the demonic possession of a young girl and her mother's desperate attempts to win back her daughter through an exorcism conducted by two priests. The film features Ellen Burstyn, Linda Blair, Max von Sydow, Kitty Winn, Lee J. Cobb, Jason Miller, and Mercedes McCambridge. The film is one of a cycle of 'demonic child' movies produced in the late 1960s and early 1970s, including Rosemary's Baby and The Omen. The film became the most profitable horror film of all time and one of the highest earning movies in general, grossing $401,400,000 worldwide (and a further $112,053,066 for the Director's Cut re-release in 2000), and at the time of release briefly became the highest-grossing film of all time, until being surpassed one year later by Steven Spielberg's Jaws. The film proved a huge effect on popular culture. The film earned ten Academy Award nominationswinning two, one for Best Sound and Best Adapted Screenplay, and losing Best Picture to The Sting. Along with the novel on which it was based, Blatty's script has been published several times over the years. The Exorcist was commercially released in the United States by Warner Bros. on December 26, 1973, and re-released on March 17, 2000, with a restored version released on September 22, 2000. It was named the scariest movie of all time by Entertainment Weekly and Movies.com[citation needed] and by viewers of AMC in 2006, and was #3 on Bravo's 100 Scariest Movie Moments.
Starting at an archaeological dig in Al-hadar near Nineveh in Iraq, Father Lankester Merrin (Max von Sydow), an archaeologist, visits a site where a small stone is found, resembling a grimacing, bestial creature. Merrin travels onward to find the strange statue of Pazuzu, which has a head similar to the one found earlier. He also encounters two riflemen and two dogs fighting each other. Meanwhile, another priest, Father Damien Karras (Jason Miller), a young priest at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., begins to doubt his faith while dealing with his mother's terminal illness. The main story follows Chris MacNeil (Ellen Burstyn), an actress filming in Georgetown, who notices dramatic and dangerous changes in the behavior of her 12-year-old daughter, Regan MacNeil (Linda Blair). Regan has a seizure, then exhibits strange, unnatural powers including levitation and great strength. Regan curses and blasphemes in a demonic male voice. Chris initially believes Regan's changes are related to puberty, but doctors suspect a lesion in her brain. Regan endures a series of unpleasant medical tests. When X-rays show nothing out of the ordinary, a doctor advises that Regan be taken to a psychiatrist, whom she assaults. Paranormal occurrences continue, including a violently shaking bed, strange noises, and unexplained movements. Along with these things, the director of Chris MacNeil's film, Burke Dennings (Jack MacGowran), is found brutally murdered outside the MacNeil residence after being asked to babysit Regan. When all medical explanations are exhausted, a doctor recommends exorcism, suggesting that if Regan's symptoms are a psychosomatic result of a belief in demonic possession, then perhaps an exorcism would have the psychosomatic effect of ending them. In desperation, Chris consults Karras, since he is both a priest and a psychiatrist. During a period in which Karras observes Regan, Regan refers to herself as the Devil. Despite his doubts, Karras decides to request permission from the Church to conduct an exorcism. Merrin, an experienced exorcist, is summoned to Washington to help. He and Father Karras try to drive the spirit from Regan. The demon threatens and taunts both priests, both physically and verbally (including the demon using the voice of Karras' mother), and Merrin dies of a heart attack. Karras attempts to perform CPR to no avail. Regan giggles as Karras tries to save Merrin. Karras strikes her and chokes her, challenging the demon to leave Regan and enter him. The demon does so, whereupon the priest throws himself through Regan's bedroom window and falls down the steps outside. At the bottom, a devastated Father Dyer (William O'Malley) - and friend of Father Karras - administers last rites as Father Karras dies. Regan is restored to health and does not appear to remember her ordeal. Chris and Regan leave Georgetown and their trauma behind.

In every Tuscan town, once a week it's market day. Nowadays, as in the past, the open air market is the occasion to cultivate social contacts, to purchase foods and day to day products, and sometimes to return home with a good deal.
These markets are useful to familiarize oneself with typical local products.
