A quartet of familiar spices lend the striking flavors of Morocco to this complete meal in one. Although it takes a bit longer than other recipes to cook, once you put it in the oven, your work is done.–Kristine Kidd
LC Holy Smoke Alarm Note
It isn't the heat in this burnished bird's spice rub that will set off your internal smoke alarm. It's the drips and dribbles and splotches in your oven that may, in fact, set off your actual smoke alarm. Anytime we crank our less-than-pristine oven to 450 degrees F or higher, it has a tendency to billow smoke from these burnt-on remnants of the apple tart that bubbled over last week, those roast sweet potatoes that couldn't contain their lusciousness, maybe even that roast duck from last autumn that splattered all over the oven walls. The way we see it, there are two ways around this-either scrub the darn thing until it sparkles or roast the bird at a slightly lower temperature for a little longer. Any other ideas?
Moroccan-Spiced Roast Chicken Recipe
- Quick Glance
- Serves 4
- One whole (4 to 5 pounds) chicken
- Coarse kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons plus 1 1/2 teaspoons sweet paprika
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1/4 to 3/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 smallish lemon
- 5 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for the baking sheet
- 2 small (about 3/4 pounds total) orange-fleshed sweet potatoes, unpeeled
- 1 pound cauliflower, cut into 1-inch florets
- 1 red onion, cut into 8 wedges
- 1. Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C). Slick a heavy large rimmed baking sheet–preferably not a roasting pan, but if you do use a roasting pan, make it a big one–with a little oil.
- 2. Pull out and discard the fat and giblets from the cavity of the chicken. Pat the chicken very dry with paper towels. Starting at the edge of the main cavity, slide a finger under the skin over each breast half, making a pocket between the skin and meat. Rub a total of 1 tablespoon of salt over the chicken skin and toss a little salt inside the cavity. Sprinkle the chicken generously with black pepper.
- 3. In a small bowl, mix the paprika, cumin, pepper flakes, and cinnamon. Set aside 2 1/2 teaspoons of the spice mixture for the vegetables. The rest is for the chicken. Finely grate the zest from the lemon, cut the lemon into quarters, and mix the zest into the spices for the chicken. Gradually mix in 2 tablespoons of the olive oil to make a paste. Spread a little of the paste inside the cavity, slather some of it under the skin over the chicken breasts, and rub the rest of the paste all over the outside of the chicken. Toss the lemon quarters inside the cavity. Tie the legs together, if desired. Place the chicken in the center of the baking sheet and roast for 30 minutes. Keep an eye on it and if it browns too quickly cover it loosely with a sheet of foil.
- 4. Meanwhile, cut the sweet potatoes in half crosswise, and then quarter each half lengthwise to create wedges. Combine the sweet potatoes, cauliflower, and onion in a bowl. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons oil and toss to coat. Add the reserved spice mixture, sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper, and toss to coat.
- 5. After the chicken has roasted for 30 minutes, remove it from the oven. Tilt the sheet pan and spoon off most of the fat. Return the chicken to the center of the sheet and spoon the vegetables around it. Return the pan to the oven and continue roasting until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh registers 165°F (74°C), about 40 minutes longer, depending on the size of the bird. (Note: the bird will take longer to roast if the legs have been tied together. It will also take longer if you ended up with a behemoth bird that's closer to five pounds than four.) If the skin is getting too dark before the meat is done, reduce the oven temperature to 425°F (218°C).
- 6. Transfer the chicken to a platter and let rest for 10 minutes. Carve the chicken and serve with the vegetables.

I recently received a review copy of America's Best BBQ, which was published by the same people behind Falling Cloudberries, one of the most gorgeous cookbooks I've ever seen. (Seriously, I don't know who the graphic designers are at Andrew McMeel, but their work is so good, it's honestly enough by itself to warrant buying these books, if just for flipping value.)
In the case of this barbecue book, cookbook might not be the best term to describe it. While filled with recipes, it's also part guide, part travelogue, part window into the barbecue belt of America (i.e., from North Carolina to Texas, with a few other states thrown in). There are a lot (a lot!) of gorgeous, glossy photos, along with stories and commentary by Ardie A. Davis and Chef Paul Kirk, the authors and researchers behind this compilation. These men love barbecue. They make it, the taste it, they travel around the country deciding what's good enough to tell the rest of us about.
If I had one complaint, it'd be that a lot of the recipes, at least for main dishes, require special ingredients particular to the restaurants they came from: Ed's Pepper Vinegar Sauce from The Pit in Raleigh, North Carolina, to make a barbecued hog; Curtis' Southern Style Bar-B-Q Sauce from Curtis's BBQ in Vermont to make its loaded pork-stuffed potato. I had to dig a little to find a barbecue recipe I could make in my own kitchen: the Apple City BBQ Sauce that, ironically, comes from my own home state, one not especially known for that sort of thing.
To make this recipe from the 17th Street Bar & Grill in Murphysboro, Illinois, I had to tweak a few things, most notably the grated onion, which I replaced with onion powder. You'd think such a substitution would ruin everything, but in fact, it gave it a wonderful kick that almost made my eyes water.
It worked very well in a an old stand-by chicken recipe I've posted here before (back when my camera situation was a little different), the one that, with a store-bought barbecue sauce, brought me back to my grandma's kitchen and her clear glass plates.
With this new sauce, the slow-cooker recipe was just as easy and made the chicken just as delicious, but different.
And on sandwiches a few days later, this fork-tender meat left me with nothing but happy sighs—that and a desire for more. I'd say that's testament enough to its value and, of course, the power of good barbecue.
Apple City Barbecue Sauce
Adapted from America's Best BBQ
(Pictured above in Coke Chicken; recipe here)
1 cup ketchup (Hunt's is recommended)
1/2 cup rice vinegar
1/2 cup apple juice or cider (I used low-sugar juice)
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce (I used Worcestershire)
2 teaspoons yellow mustard
3/4 teaspoon minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/3 cup bacon bits
1/2 cup onion powder (or grated onion)
In a large saucepan, combine ketchup, rice vinegar, apple juice, cider vinegar, brown sugar, soy sauce, mustard, garlic powder, white pepper, cayenne and bacon bits. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and then stir in the onion powder.
Reduce the heat and simmer the mixture, uncovered, for 10 to 15 minutes or until it thickens slightly. (Note: my mixture started to bubble and spurt out of the pan, so I covered it, with the lid slightly ajar to let air in.) Stir frequently.
Allow sauce to cool and pour into sterilized glass bottles. Makes 3 cups. May be stored for up to two weeks.

I do love a good bbq sauce! This looks great.
As we happen upon the cusp of BBQ season, this review is more than appropriate.
That said, I'm always impressed when a slow cooker recipe can evoke such response. This cookbook might be worth looking at for that reason alone!
(Shout out to Alison from JSOnline for getting me over to your blog with her recent post on granola!)
That sauce looks awesome!
yes! i totally love homemade bbq sauce… mmm… cause i always have in basic ingredients on hand etc….
I've been looking for a good barbecue sauce recipe to make chicken with…this one sure looks and sounds like a winner! I'll be trying it soon, especially with the summer months upon us.
Don Howes
did you use the coke and ketchup with this BBQ sauce?
Don: Yes! I used the Coke Chicken recipe already posted on this site, and this sauce became the BBQ sauce it requires. I'll update the post to make that more clear. Thanks for checking!
Mmmm, barbecue. I had some last week at a local spot (it was surprisingly good!), but I have never made my own. Is it hard to do? Because the sauce doesn't look too challenging. (:
BBQ is such a big deal down her in VA (and in NC), and I am so ignorant on the different styles- it is ALL good to me. I have heard of The Pit multiple times, and people swear it's worth the trip to Raleigh!
Pingback: America's Best BBQ Reviews
I'm going to try the original sauce again this week with these three modifications: (1) cook 1/2 lb bacon and cook the onion in the drippings and add the cooked bacon to the pot while it simmers. I'm skipping the bacon bits. Half of the ketchup will be no salt added Heinz. If it needs salt I will add the salt. When I pull my pork shoulder, I salt it and season with a no-ketchup NC vinegar sauce. (2) I'll pull the bacon out and run the sauce through a food mill to make sure there isn't any onion lumps. (3) Then I'll adjust for salt and use three peppers cayenne, black and white. My cayenne is a new jar so I have to be careful. I will start with 1/8t of cayenne and 1/4 of black and of white.

Heart valve disease Surgery India – International Patient Services
Article by Pankaj Nagpal
Heart valve disease :
Heart valve disease is also called as Valvular Heart Disease.The heart has two halves, a left and right each with 2chambers the atrium and the ventricle. Between the chambers are the heart valves which ensure the blood runs only in one direction. Heart valves separate the ventricle and the atrium chambers. On the right side of the heart called tricuspid valve and on the left side the mitral valve. There are also valves on each side between the heart and the major blood vessel taking blood away from the heart on the right this is pulmonary valve. On the left between the left ventricle and the aorta is aortic valve. Heart valves are made up of caps of thin, strong tissue attached to the heart with fibrous cords. They can open only in one direction.
Causes of Heart Valve Disease
They may be due to :
Congenital abnormality-means a person borns with an abnormal valveDegeneration through atherosclerosis(aortic stenosis only)Damage from Rheumatic feverExcessive calcification in old age (aortic stenosis only)Bacterial infection or inflammation of a valve Excessive floppiness of the leaflets(mitral valve prolapse)Enlargement of the heart or aorta-the main blood vessel into which the left ventricle pumps.
Diagnosis of Heart Valve Disease
These may include :
Echocardiography-An echocardiography is a test that shows the hearts movement. Transesophegeal Echocardiography: This test requires that the transducer be inserted down the throat into the esophagus(the swallowing tube that connects the mouth to the stomach) because the esophagus is located close to the heart clear images of the heart structures can be obtained without the interference of the lungs and chest. Cardiac Catherization (Angiogram) during this test a long narrow tube called a catheter is inserted into a blood vessel in your arm or leg guided to your heart with the aid to a special x-ray machine. Contrast dye is injected through the catheter so that x-ray movies of your valves coronary arteries and heart chambers can be created.Radionuclide scans.Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI)Chest X-RayECG which records the electrical changes happening in your heart.
Treatment of Heart Valve Disease
Medicinal :
Diuretics-Remove extra fluid from the tissues and blood stream, lesson the symptoms of heart failureAntirrythmic medicines-control the hearts rhythmACE Inhibitors -which help the heart, work more effectively by relaxing blood vessels and so improving blood flow.Digoxin-which stabilizes the heart rhythm and helps the heart pump harderBeta Blockers treat high blood pressure and lesson the hearts work by helping the heart beat slower and less forcefully. Used to decrease palpitation in some patients.
Surgery For Heart Valve Disease :
If your valve has narrowed (stenosis) your doctor may recommend balloon valve surgery called balloon valvoplasty. Reshaping of the valve ring by removing excess valve tissue Adding support to the valve ring by adding tissue or a collar like structure around the base of the valve. Attaching the valve to nearby heart cordlike tissues (chordal transposition) for a valve repair the procedure performed will depend on the type of valve problems that exist.eg: separation of fused valve leaflets, repair of torn leaflets and/or reshaping of the parts to ensure better function.

Management and Nutrition
Management of the Neonate
Care of Orphaned Native Birds and Mammals
If an orphaned bird or mammal is found, further information should be sought before attempting wildlife rehabilitation. The following is a general overview, and all species require more information for a full course of captive care. It is illegal to keep most species of North American wild animals as pets. Permits are required, even by veterinarians, to care for most wild species beyond initial medical care. The USA Fish and Wildlife Service and state natural resource agencies should be contacted for applicable rules. Injured limbs of wild animals should never be amputated without consultation with regulatory agencies.
The first step is to determine if young are truly orphaned. If chicks are returned to nests or mammals are left alone and monitored from afar, the parent may return and resume care. Human handling does not preclude most parents accepting returned offspring. Neonatal wildlife, especially unidentified species, have the best chance of survival if kept warm and taken to local wildlife rehabilitation centers. Skunks, raccoons, foxes, and bats should only be rehabilitated by professionals because of potential zoonotic diseases. Marine mammals and seabirds require specialized care facilities (see Management of Marine Mammals).
All neonates require physical examination and assessment of hydration, body temperature, and weight. When hand-rearing, warmth, hydration, and energy are critical. Because most orphans initially cannot maintain or regulate their body temperature, supplemental heat should be provided with heating pads, hot water bottles, incandescent light bulbs, or brooders. A heat gradient for ambulatory young allows orphans to select their own comfort zone. Thermal support of altricial species must be closely regulated. Most placental mammals and birds have normal body temperatures warmer than that of people, and should feel warm to the human hand. Maintaining humidity of 50–70% in housing avoids dehydration, and insulating orphans from direct heat prevents burns. Hypothermic orphans should be warmed until body temperature is near normal and administered warm fluids to maintain hydration. Once the infant is warmed and well hydrated, species-appropriate diets can be fed to provide energy. Initial feedings should be conservatively sized and dilute until it has been determined that the infant's excretory systems are functioning. Infants of most species have a stomach or crop capacity of ~50 mL/kg. Overfeeding may result in aspiration pneumonia or diarrhea. Once infants are stabilized, the advice of a permitted rehabilitator should be obtained. Euthanasia should be considered for any animal with injuries that preclude eventual release.
When hand-rearing for wild release, infants should be raised with conspecifics to avoid human imprinting, using techniques that reduce habituation. Wild infants should be isolated from domestic animals. Feathers, skin, and eyes should be kept free of spilled food, and foods maintained hygienically. Nests/housing should be cleaned regularly and secured against vermin.
Nest replacements should be constructed so as to provide nonambulatory chicks with a comfortable upright posture with the head elevated and legs underneath the body. Housing chicks on flat surfaces may result in splayed legs. Fractured bones are considered life-threatening injuries because of the requirement of functionality for release. Trauma to soft tissues can be minimized by stabilizing fractures promptly. Elbow, carpus, spine, stifle, and hock fractures or luxations carry a poor prognosis for release. Chicks may heal rapidly from seemingly severe soft tissue injuries or mid-shaft long-bone fractures. Lacerations should have primary closure to minimize time in captivity and reduce adverse effects on growing plumage. Antibiotic therapy against gram-negative bacteria is advisable for predator-injured chicks; it should be continued until wounds have completely healed.
Identification of species is important for determination of behavioral considerations, weaning diets, and adult fate. Nearly all North American species feed vertebrate or invertebrate prey to their chicks. Metabolic bone disease may develop quickly on inadequately supplemented diets. Growing chicks require a ratio of elemental calcium:phosphorus of ~2:1 by weight. Milk and bread, hamburger, condensed milk, or uncooked rice should not be fed. Soaked dog kibble and monkey biscuits are inadequate for most species. All species require 8–12 hr uninterrupted sleep. Self-feeding requires daylight-level lighting in diurnal species.
Chicks should be warmed to normal body temperature, hydrated until droppings are produced, and then fed. Tiny, unfeathered chicks require environments as warm as 100°F (37.8°C); larger feathered chicks do well initially in temperatures of 90–95°F (32.2–35°C). Overheated chicks may hold perpetual open-mouthed postures, droop heads over nest edges, and cease producing droppings if dehydrated. Not all species gape/beg (swifts, nightjars). Some species stop begging when full (corvids), some do not and may dangerously overeat (finches, goldfinches). Crops should empty between feeds; not all species have crops (insectivores, owls). Hatchlings require more water than older chicks. Common problems that cause lack of gaping include too cold, hot, weak, or dehydrated; untreated illness or injury; and misidentified species. Puréed high quality kitten or ferret kibble is an acceptable temporary food for most altricial chicks, supplemented with 150 mg/kg calcium glubionate, PO, bid until on a balanced diet. Puréed, skinned prey animals (quail or adult mice, including bones and organs, minus feet and heads) form an adequate diet for many species. Bone fragments must be completely pulverized to avoid GI trauma. Thawed-frozen prey require vitamin supplementation. Higher protein/fat, lower carbohydrate diets are desirable for most species.
A simple hand-feeding diet consists of 1 cup (116 g) Purina Pro-Plan kitten kibble, 1.25–1.5 cup (300–360 mL) water, 2 tbsp (14 g) powdered egg white, 750 mg calcium from CaCO3, and ½ tsp (1.4 g) Avi-Era powdered avian vitamins (Lafeber). Do not delete or substitute ingredients haphazardly, soak kibble and blend until smooth, and feed with appropriately sized syringe. Hatchlings/nestlings: feed 50 mL/kg every 20–45 min (by age) 12–14 hr/day, 16 hr/day for insectivores. Fledglings; hand-feed 50 mL/kg every 1–2 hr, 12 hr/day, offering appropriate self-feeding diet.
These chicks should be transferred to an experienced caregiver immediately. A temporary diet consists of 1 part water to 6 parts table sugar or 5% dextrose, fed every 20 min. Do not spill sugar water on the bird.
Commercial diets for hatchlings are Roudybush Squab and Lafeber Emeraid Carnivore; for nestlings/fledglings, Kaytee Exact Hand Feeding Formula. Crop capacity is 100–120 mL/kg. Birds should be fed when crop empties, 12–14 hr/day: every 1–2 hr until eyes open, every 3 hr until ambulating and ingesting seed. Palpating the crop before each feeding will prevent overfilling.
Hatchlings can be fed small pieces of warm, water-dipped meat every 2 hr, 12 hr/day with blunt-tipped forceps; tiny bone pieces can be included by day 3 post-hatch, and casting material (skin/hair) by day 5. The crop should empty between meals. Most species will pick up chopped prey from a dish by day 14. Feeding with a puppet parent can be done once the eyes open.
Thawed-frozen fish (5–20 g, sliced diagonally if larger), live insects, or thawed-frozen chopped mice, should be offered hourly until self-feeding, then several times daily. Food should be sprinkled with calcium powder. Hatchlings may require force feeding; older chicks may eat from a dish.
Once warm and secure, many species drink and eat independently. Solitude stresses chicks; a mirror, small stuffed animals, clean feather duster, or closely related species chicks can be companions. Uncommon species and debilitated hatchlings require professional rehabilitative care for a positive outcome. Placing pebbles in water dishes can prevent quail/ducklings from drowning. Hatchling quail/killdeer require 95–100°F (35–37.8°C) habitat brooders.
Live, fresh-frozen, and freeze-dried small invertebrate prey (tubifex worms, brine shrimp, mosquito larvae, tiny krill, small freshly shed mealworms, fly larvae, or cichlid mini-pellets) should be offered in shallow water at least 4 times daily.
Natural duckweed or watercress, small invertebrates, crushed hard-boiled egg, small minnows, and waterfowl starter (Mazuri) should be offered. Access to shallow water should be controlled; chicks must be able to easily exit water to warm under a heat source.
Soaked puppy kibble, small-bodied invertebrates, small clumps of grass or weeds with soil, or commercial gamebird starter can be offered.
Hypothermia and dehydration should be corrected. Hairless neonates require ambient temperatures of 85–90°F (29.4–32.2°C), while haired infants can be housed at cooler temperatures depending on maturity and body condition. Once warm and hydrated, milk replacer (MR) should be introduced using this regimen: 100% oral electrolyte solution, gradually increasing strength of MR in one to several feedings to ¼ strength, then ½, then ¾, and finally full strength MR. During this process, if the neonate develops digestive upset (vomiting, diarrhea, bloating), feeding should return to the last well-tolerated ratio. Neonates can be stimulated to eliminate by gently stroking the perineal area with warm moist gauze or tissue. Dorsal side up is normal nursing posture; infants should not be put on their backs to feed. The environment should be quiet.
Fawns should be raised in groups with minimal human contact. If they are in the veterinary clinic temporarily, they should be kept away from dogs. Newborn to 2-day-old fawns should be fed colostrum, such as Colostrx (Schering-Plough), for the first 24–48 hr. After reconstitution, one 454-g package can be administered via bottle or stomach tube over 8–10 hr (5 meals/day). Acceptable MR include Fox Valley Milk Replacer, Lamb's Milk Replacer, or goat's milk. Fawns 2–7 days should be fed qid. At 1 day old, each meal should consist of 30–40 mL/kg, gradually increasing to 50 mL/kg from 2–6 wk of age, reaching a maximum of 480 mL tid. At 4–6 wk, feeding frequency is decreased to bid, and solid food added (eg, goat chow, calf manna, and alfalfa hay). Indigenous natural browse should always be available. By 7 wk, fawns should be eating solid food and fed one 480 mL bottle daily. By 8–10 wk, fawns should eat solid food exclusively.
Syringe-feeding is preferred; Catac® nipples work well. Eastern gray and fox squirrel neonates should be fed every 2 hr until 2 wk old. From 2–3 wk, feeding should be every 3 hr, 8 times/day. At 4 wk, the late-night feed is eliminated. At 5–6 wk, feedings are reduced to 5 and then to 4 times/day, at 7–8 wk to 3 times/day, and at 10 wk to once a day. Weight should be monitored daily, and the squirrel fed 50 mL/kg per meal until it weighs 100 g, gradually increasing to 70 mL/kg. Acceptable MR (ratios by volume) include 2 parts Fox Valley 32/40 and 3 parts water, or 1:½:2 parts of Esbilac, MultiMilk, and water. When eyes are open and squirrels are ambulatory, natural foods and rodent block can be offered; fruit should be strictly limited. Ground squirrels wean at 6 wk old, and Western gray squirrels at 12 wk.
Neonatal rabbit stomachs hold 100–125 mL/kg. Feeding 1–4 times/day is needed; use of a slip-tip syringe is preferred. If suckling response is poor, tube-feeding should be reduced by 30% and an extra feeding added to ensure adequate caloric intake. Acceptable MR (ratios by volume) include 3 parts Esbilac liquid and 2 parts MultiMilk (powder) or 1 part Esbilac powder; 1 part MultiMilk powder to 1.5 parts water; and 1 part Esbilac powder, ½ part heavy cream, and 1 part water (fur rabbits). When the eyes open, a variety of chopped leafy greens and grass (orchard, timothy, or oat) hay should be provided. Fruits and high-sugar vegetables (eg, carrots) should be avoided.
Infants weighing <20 g have a poor prognosis. Infants weighing 20–35 g should be fed 50 mL/kg 6 times/day, those weighing 40–100 g, 50–60 mL/kg 5 times/day. An acceptable MR (ratio by volume) is 1 part Esbilac, ½ part MultiMilk, and 2 parts water. Tube-feeding is preferred, and a size 3.5 French red rubber catheter measured to the caudal rib can be used. If syringe feeding, a cut smoothed Tomcat catheter can be attached to the syringe and the infant fed drop-wise. When the eyes open (around 45 g) infants can be taught to lap formula from a shallow dish. When infants weigh ~60 g and are walking, kitten kibble soaked in Esbilac can be offered. Once the infant is eating the soaked kibble (~80–100 g), 10% other natural food items (crickets, worms, chopped mice, local fruits, high-calcium vegetables) can be introduced. Most opossums self-feed by the time they weigh 100–120 g. Adequate calcium intake must be ensured to prevent metabolic bone disease.

Last Tuesday, the Perry County Central Commodores hosted the undefeated Letcher Central Cougars. The Commodores jumped out to a big lead early and had to hold off a strong rally by the Cougars to hold on for the win.
The Commodores were on fire in the first period and quickly posted a double-digit lead. Perry Central continued to stay hot throughout the frame, and ended with a 21-9 lead.
Perry Central quickly cooled off in the second period, while Letcher Central began to find their range. The Cougars made a strong comeback in the period, but the Commodores were able to limp into the locker room with the 31-26 advantage.
Both teams picked up their defensive efforts in the third period, with the offenses playing to a tie (13-all). The Commodores went into the final period with their five-point advantage still intact (44-39).
The even play continued into the fourth quarter, with Letcher Central making a strong rally late. The Cougars got to within a single basket late, but the Commodores managed to stave off the attack.
Perry Central went on to win the contest by the final count of 57-51.
Perry Central (57) Braxton Beverly 16 (3 assists and 1 rebound), Austin Pray 3 (1 assist and 6 rebounds), Dalton Cornett 23 (1 block and 11 rebounds), Darrly Beatty 10 (1 assist and 2 rebounds), Tyler Fugate 5 (4 assists and 2 rebounds), and Austin Neace (2 assists).

This is Legal Action in extreme overdrive!!!! Charlotte will make her choice between riveting, gorgeous billionaire Bly and back-from-the-dead, too-hot-to-handle, Special-Ops hunk Finn and her decision will mean sweet, sweet, savage love for Charlotte and the man of her dreams. But the past has a wicked tendency to come back to haunt a girl when she least expects it, and what would Legal Action be without some serious "OMG" moments?!!!! A wild mix of tender romance and seriously hot sex, with humor and heart and unexpected twists of fate. One man wins her heart and one man can't get her out of his heart, and only one man gets the girl, but one thing's for sure… Charlotte and the two men who love her will never be the same…
IN PART ONE: Bright, beautiful Attorney, Charlotte Christiansen has never lost a court case. She's built a reputation as a cool, on the rise lawyer, while trying to escape the 'naughty cheerleader' pictorial in American Jock magazine she posed for to pay her way through law school.
She shares the top floor of a historic San Diego building with her best friends from college who happen to be two very male, very sexy Special Forces operatives. Her ex is a celebrity NFL quarterback who could pass for a Viking God. She's surrounded by hot men but her life revolves around work and she doesn't have time for love or sex.
Until Alexander Bly, the stop-the-clock gorgeous, billionaire publishing magnate becomes her newest client at the law firm. He's the man responsible for the magazine cover that turned Charlotte into everyman's sex fantasy. Bly has had women and the world at his beck and call, but no woman has ever rocked his world. Charlotte is about to. When they come together the desire and sex are white-hot and all-consuming, but falling in love takes them completely by surprise.
As Charlotte handles Bly's lawsuit against Huang Worldwide Corporation, scary, smooth and sexy Jamey Huang kidnaps her. But, Huang doesn't want Bly's billions, he wants Charlotte's secret, former lover. Legal Action is a sexy romance filled with burn-up-the-pages sex, tender love and witty, sharp-tongued characters with a little espionage thrown in for even more spicy fun.

Less volatile financial markets and strong demand from retail investors are expected to help the mutual fund industry in the second half, with some industry analysts predicting as much as 20 percent growth in total funds from last year.
Mutual fund assets under management in Indonesia rose 13 percent to Rp 168.2 trillion ($18 billion) last year, data from the Capital Market and Financial Institution Supervisory Agency (Bapepam-LK) show.
By the end of June, assets had reached Rp 171.6 trillion.
That marked a 2 percent gain year to date, less than half of the rate of the benchmark stock measure Jakarta Composite Index's 5.9 percent advance.
"In the second half, mutual fund growth will be more promising as there are signs of resolving problems in Europe and economic stimulus," Budi Hikmat, chief economist and director of investor relations at Bahana TCW Investment, said on Monday.
"As long as our economy continues to grow and the debt ratio and inflation are manageable, the value of assets in the capital market will return to their fair value," he said.
Rudiyanto, the head of operations and business development at Panin Asset Management, said many fund managers had tried to increase retail investment in mutual funds by pushing the "auto debit facility," which transfers investors' money to a chosen mutual fund for a certain period.
"Fund managers will also introduce many products in the second half, so I'm confident mutual funds can grow by 15 percent to 20 percent," he said.
Bapepam-LK has issued licenses for 20 funds this year and is processing licenses for 38 more.
Abiprayadi Riyanto, chairman of the Indonesia Mutual Fund Managers Association (Aprdi), was also optimistic that mutual funds could grow at least 15 percent this year, particularly in equity funds and balanced funds, which invest in stocks and bonds in roughly equal amounts.

"Jack Bauerle is the consummate team coach. What he has done at the University of Georgia represents the pinnacle of team swimming, which is what the U.S. Olympic Team is all about. He brings a fun approach to the sport."
USA Swimming's Mark Schubert used those words when he announced that Bauerle had been chosen as the head coach of the United States' women's swimming team for the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, China. For Bauerle, the Olympic appointment became the crowning moment of his career.
Bauerle has had unparalleled success in and out of the pool at Georgia, highlighted by six team national championships with the Lady Bulldogs. Under Bauerle's watch, individual national and Southeastern Conference champions, All-Americans, record-setters, Academic All-Americans and NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship recipients have become the norm.
In his stint overseeing Georgia's program (not to mention his time as a Georgia swimmer himself and assistant coach), Bauerle has produced six team national championships and 11 SEC crowns with the Lady Bulldogs. He has been chosen as the SEC Coach of the Year 16 times and the National Women's Coach of the Year six times.
Bauerle will pilot the Georgia women for the 36th year and the men for the 32nd in 2014-15. He has led the Lady Bulldogs to 297 dual-meet victories, six national championships and 11 SEC titles during his tenure. Counting his 210 wins as the Bulldogs' coach, Bauerle has an overall record of 507-122-2. He is the nation's winningest active coach and the winningest coach in SEC history.
In 2013 and 2014, Bauerle's Lady Bulldogs earned team titles at the NCAA and SEC Championships. The conference crown in 2014 gave Georgia its fifth straight, matching the program's high-water mark.
In 2012, 13 swimmers (representing eight nations) with ties to the Georgia program competed in the Olympics, highlighted by Allison Schmitt's five medals, including three golds, and Shannon Vreeland's gold medal.
At the 2008 Olympics, the United States women, under Bauerle's watch, earned a total of 14 medals (two golds, seven silvers, five bronze), the most of any nation. Two of his pupils, Kara Lynn Joyce and Schmitt, were included in the medals haul as Joyce won two silvers and Schmitt secured a bronze. Bauerle's handiwork was on display as 12 athletes and coaches from his Georgia program joined him in Beijing.
Georgia can claim one achievement that no other collegiate sports program can - three NCAA Woman of the Year Award winners in Lisa Coole (1997), Kristy Kowal (2000) and Kim Black (2001). Georgia is the only program in the nation to have more than one winner - and Bauerle has coached all three.
Bauerle has been inducted into the State of Georgia Sports Hall of Fame, the Georgia Aquatics Hall of Fame and the Montgomery County (Pa.) Coaches Hall of Fame. He also received the Bill Hartman Award, which is one of the highest honors given to a former UGA student-athlete based on 20 years of excellence in his profession.
Besides coaching, Bauerle has dedicated his time and efforts to several community service endeavors. In 1983, Bauerle and three partners played 125 hours of tennis at the Jennings Mill Country Club to raise more than $50,000 for the American Cancer Society. He received the Billy Hudson Distinguished Citizen Award from the Northeast Georgia Council of the Boy Scouts of America for his community service efforts. Bauerle has been selected to Sphinx Club, Blue Key Society, the Gridiron Society and Phi Kappa Phi. He is also an avid outdoorsman.
Bauerle, a native of Glenside, Pa., has three sons: John, Magill (who is named after legendary Georgia tennis coach and swimming letterman Dan Magill) and Duke.

Teacher Training | News
When teachers participate in professional development, students do better in assessments. That's the conclusion of a study undertaken by researchers at the University of Utah and Brigham Young University.
In "Multi-State, Quasi-Experimental Study of the Impact of Internet-Based, On-Demand Professional Learning on Student Performance," the researchers examined math and reading scores for students before and after teachers in their schools began using a commercially available online professional development program.
The work was undertaken by Steve Shaha, a professor with the Center for Public Policy and Administration at U Utah, and Heather Ellsworth, a lab attendant with Brigham Young. Both also do work for School Improvement Network, the company that produces PD 360, the online professional development materials being used by teachers in the study. As the study explains, PD 360 is an "on-demand, Internet-accessible product suite through which educators can participate in a full range of passive and active capabilities, ranging from viewing instructional videos on teaching techniques, to participating in communities of other users of the product suite, to posting and downloading PD-related materials."
Shaha and Ellsworth studied a random sampling of 169 schools representing 73 districts in 19 states. Student performance data was gathered from publicly available Web sources and district-supplied Excel spreadsheets for two consecutive school years, the one just prior to school adoption of the professional development tool and the year in which it was made available to educators.
The study found that schools in which educators were "highly engaged" in professional learning had a 19 percent gain in student math scores and a 15 percent gain in reading scores. Schools in the same districts without the professional development saw a 4 percent increase in math and a 2.5 percent increase in reading.
"Taken as a whole," the researchers concluded, "the findings from this research support the high-participation use of Internet-based, on-demand PD for improving teacher efficacy and improving student performance. Given the cost-effectiveness and efficiency of this PD delivery approach, such methods should be considered as credible strategies for addressing needs for continuously improved teacher efficacy and better student achievement."
This study was published in the December 2013 issue of the International Journal of Evaluation and Research in Education.

Cycle Breaker Leadership Principle #3 is "Lean into your discomfort!"
A major problem with this generation is that we believe life should be easy. We have a sense of entitlement and a belief that we should not be uncomfortable. In fact, these three attitudes are often the root cause leading to decisions to participate in criminal activity. Let's take a look at each of these attitudes: "Life Should Be Easy" – This attitude causes people to lie on their taxes, over mortgage their homes and do other shady types of activity to make sure they have the easy life. "The Sense of Entitlement" – This attitude is displayed as the underlying reason for many crimes, especially crimes involving drug dealing. Thinking that you are entitled to the good life and refusing to earn it legally will cause you to cross moral lines with justification for your actions. "My Children and I Should Not Be Uncomfortable" or "My Children Must Have it Better Than I Did - They Can't be Uncomfortable" – This attitude causes store clerks, who are barely making enough money to keep a roof over their head, to buy the latest edition of the $150 Michael Jordan tennis shoes (being willing to stand in line to make sure they get a pair before they sell out).
Until we learn to "Lean Into Our Discomfort," we will fail to reach our true potential for success or leadership. Leaning into your discomfort really means coming to grips with the areas in your life where you are not satisfied, the areas where you know that you could be doing better. Once you recognize and acknowledge these areas you can make the adjustments necessary to change. Understand that, with growth, there is pain; especially in the beginning. I have a 10 month old son and every now and then, or more, he starts to cry. I understand that he is growing his teeth, a process that can be uncomfortable and even painful, but that's what happens with growth. Even as adults, when you decide to exercise on the regular basis, the first few times will be painful. You will be sore, but eventually the pain goes away. Well, the same principles apply to growth toward our leadership potential. It's uncomfortable to do the hard things to be successful but, when we do the hard things, the rewards will be great.
A few examples of the discomfort you must lean into: 1. Separation. When you are growing to new levels, you will have to leave people behind who are not going in the same direction. Elevation is hard enough and it gets almost impossible while carrying dead weight. 2. Education. We have to keep learning. In fact, I believe that we should continue to expand and stretch our minds until the day we die. I had a discouraging casual conversation with an employee who stated that "at my age, there is nothing anyone can teach me that I'm willing to pay for." I was discouraged because I know that person is stuck. However, I shouldn't be surprised. I can see the "stuck" position as it is evidenced in their walk, talk and work ethic. That person refuses to grow because growth would be too uncomfortable.
In order to be the best we can be. In order to live our best lives we have to be leaders. Leaders in school, on the job and at home. Cycle Breaker Leadership Principle #3 Lean into your discomfort. Get cozy with it and then defeat it.
For more discussion on this subject or others, join Judge Dawson's Cycle Breaker/Finish First program on Monday nights at 5:30 p.m. at the East Cleveland Municipal Court. East Cleveland Municipal Court's Judge William L. Dawson is on a mission to help people to Finish First, live their best lives and be Cycle Breakers!

Twins have done a pretty good job scouting Australia over the years. This quote on wikipedia gives me some encouragement:
"By mid-2012, the number of Little Leagues in the country had risen to about 400, making Australia the largest country in Little League participation outside of North America."

Tony Tyler's address to the 1000 delegates from industry and media who gathered in Miami 7-9 June for IATA's 71st AGM
Press Release No.:
Date: 3 June 2004
(Singapore) Over 600 delegates are arriving in Singapore for the biggest event on the aviation industry's calendar—the IATA Annual General Meeting and World Air Transport Summit.
"The past three years tested the mettle of our industry as never before. While record high fuel prices challenge our profitability it is time to put our efforts towards rebuilding the industry," said Bisignani. "But it is no use rebuilding a structure that we know is weak. At this AGM we need to achieve consensus on a stronger, streamlined and lower-cost industry structure. And we need to convince our industry stakeholders of the need for change," said Bisignani.
Formal meetings begin on the morning of Monday 7 June with an opening speech by His Excellency GOH Chok Tong, Prime Minister of the Republic of Singapore. Bisignani will deliver a speech outlining the industry's "Agenda for Change." Awards to airports and air navigation service providers excelling at providing value for money and satisfying their airline customers will also take place Monday morning. The rest of the conference will be highlighted by three panel discussions of industry leaders.
"It is appropriate that we meet in Singapore at this critical time in our industry's history. Singapore is a leader of the aviation industry. Singapore's liberal aviation policy and its industry leading airline and airport provide an excellent backdrop for discussing our many challenges. I am confident that this AGM, more than any other, will result in a new direction for the industry," said Bisignani.

Comics back in features; stocks go to Internet
The times are changing, and the Caller-Times is changing with them.
Starting today, you'll notice differences in the paper, including the comics moving from the sports to features section, more features and analyses in our business section and an expanded main news section.
When we placed our two comics pages in the sports section last year, many readers let us know they didn't like the change. In fact, readers still lament the move. Well, we heard you, and we're switching them back to the daily features section. Today, the comics, puzzles and games are on pages 4E and 5E.
Another response to readers' habits is our move away from extended stocks listings and toward more in-depth business reporting and columns with perspective. Newspapers across the country have reduced or eliminated daily stocks listings, as more and more readers turn to the Internet for real-time stock market information.
We will continue to provide a snapshot of the markets' daily activity and stocks of local interest on our new After the Bell page, found in the main news section daily, right before the Opinion and Viewpoints pages. After the Bell, which is on page 9A today, also features interest rates and market trends. Main news has grown into two sections, with the Opinion and Viewpoints pages found on the last two inside pages of the second A section.
To complement these changes in the paper, we're providing increased stock market information on our 24-hour Web site, Caller.com. Visitors to Caller.com/business have access to more than 7,000 U.S. stocks and their company profiles, a stock ticker updated every 20 minutes, profiles of various money market funds, and updates on the markets' top 10 gainers, losers and volume leaders. Caller.com also provides an enhanced look at stocks of local interest including new, analytical information including 52-week price bars, trend indicators and the five-year change.
As always, we want your feedback and ask that you e-mail Managing Editor Shane Fitzgerald at email@example.com or leave a message at 886-3794.

Jinny Scifres Memorial Scholarship applications available
Written by Administrator
Wednesday, 10 March 2010 00:00
The Washington County Community Foundation will be accepting applications for the Jinny Scifres Scholarship. The scholarship is for any individual
planning to attend a post-secondary accredited institution in the 2010-2011 school year and plans to pursue studies in the medical field. The scholarship payout this year is $800.00. The number and dollar amount of scholarships will be determined by the committee. Preference may be given to non-traditional nursing students who may be returning to school after starting a family or career, as did Jinny.
After starting a family, Jinny made the tough decision to return to school and study nursing. After graduation, she began her nursing career at Washington County Memorial Hospital as an Emergency Room Nurse. Jinny's love of nursing eventually lead her to several promotions and back to school once again. She eventually became the Director of Patient Care Services. Jinny died in the fall of 2000, after bravely battling bone cancer. Her family and many friends established this scholarship fund in her memory, to assist others who, like Jinny, return to school to study nursing after starting a family or career.
Applications may be picked up at the Washington County Community Foundation office in the Community Learning Center on or after March 17. Application deadline is 3:30 pm April 26. For more information, you may contact Judy Johnson or Lindsey Wade-Swift at 883-7334.

Cougars fall 56-35 to Providence Pioneers
Written by Administrator
Thursday, 25 February 2010 00:00
Providence had a good time Friday night; not only did they win their home game over the visiting North Harrison Cougars 56-35, but they also crowned their 2009-10 Homecoming Queen.
North Harrison fell behind 5-0 early, but Lincoln Jones and Devin Southard got things on board with four points right after. Alex Edwards and Southard kept the Cougars within 10-8 but Providence scored consecutive baskets and led 14-8.
North Harrison called a 30 second time out down 14-8, but it didn't really help.
Providence led 20-8 after a three and a 3 of 4 free throw stretch right before the 2nd quarter.
Southard scored a pair of freebies right before the quarter end to give north Harrison a brief respite.
Edwards and Colin Book scored to get the Cougars within 20-14, but the pioneers pulled out in front again 25-14. Lincoln Jones' bucket (4:51) was the only scoring the Cougars could muster until Dakota Bosler scored on a pair of free throws with 51 seconds left in the 2nd quarter.

Surprise proposal makes this a Valentine to remember
Written by Administrator
Thursday, 25 February 2010 00:00
Stephanie Padgett flashed a wide grin as her name was called for a door prize during intermission of the "Speaking Louder Than Before Tour" Feb. 12 at Graceland Baptist Church in New Albany.
Padgette's eyes were full of anticipation as "Wally" the host of WAY FM's "Total Access" asked her if she was ready to see what she had won.
She nodded and out-walked her boyfriend of seven months, Shawn Scott.
Scott is a Salem resident who had been planning the surprise engagement for about three months.
He said he initially wanted to do it in front of a room full of women at Northside Christian Church's Christmas Tea event, but didn't want to take the focus off the event.

Heating and Cooling System Rebate Program Launched
Written by Administrator
Thursday, 25 February 2010 00:00
Lt. Governor Becky Skillman recently announced the opening of the Indiana Heating and Cooling Incentive Program (IHIP) that will provide rebates for the purchase and installation of Energy Star Rated furnaces, boilers, central air conditioners and heat pumps. The rebates range from $150 to $1,000 depending on the technology that is installed.
"Hoosiers with older, inefficient heating and cooling systems are watching their money literally go out the window," said Lt. Governor Becky Skillman. "This program will bring the cost of replacing those less efficient systems within reach of more Hoosier homeowners."
IHIP is the Indiana program that is part of the federal State Energy Efficiency Appliance Rebate Program (SEEARP). Indiana received $6.1 million for the program, which will remain active until the funds are exhausted. This program will compliment the rebate or incentive programs already in place through many of Indiana's utility companies.
"Replacing an older furnace can be expensive," said Indiana Office of Energy Development (OED) Director Brandon Seitz. "When the IHIP rebate and any available rebate from a utility are combined with state and federal tax incentives, the final cost of a higher efficiency furnace, boiler, central air or heat pump fits into the budgets of more Hoosiers."

Re: OpenGL, GF2 okay, GF4 freezes
Well it seems that you do have a problem, as your glxinfo output states that you don't have direct rendering enabled. (Which seems weird as the rest of if look ok)
This is a snippet of my glxinfo output:-
name of display: :0.0
display: :0 screen: 0
direct rendering: Yes << This line here...
server glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
server glx version string: 1.3
server glx extensions:
GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig,
GLX_SGIX_pbuffer, GLX_SGI_video_sync, GLX_SGI_swap_control
As you can see from the output that in mine it states that I do infact have direct rendering enabled.
Are there any errors in X startup?? I'm going to have another look at your XF86Config files etc. And see if I can see anything that I may have missed.

Name: John Simon
Round: 4th (129th overall)
College: Ohio State
Height/Weight: 6-1, 257
Key college stats: 44 tackles, 9 sacks in 2012
The skinny: He will give the Ravens another good pass rusher, which is something they've been looking for this off-season. Simon's listed as a DE/OLB so he'll give the Ravens another guy who can give them pressure on the QB from the outside. Also was the Big Ten's Defensive Player of the Year in 2012 as his nine sacks were a career high.
Likely role on Ravens: The Ravens have been looking to get younger and stronger and bigger on the defensive line. This just adds to that. Simon said, in a conference call, that he'll play wherever he wants to play. Simon was dealing with a shoulder injury at the Senior Bowl, but said in a conference call that "my health is 100 percent." Plus, he'll also play wherever they want him to. Simon can give coach John Harbaugh some options since he could go at different spots on defense.

House in Japan mascarades in Transformer guise as a WW II Bunker. Residents still waiting for it to accept living entities
Jul 31, 2011 thinking design
Please. Don't get me wrong. I gravitate toward minimalism. But, when I came across this posting at DesignBoom regarding a concrete house designed for a couple who collects furniture (please go to the link above and see no evidence of any collection of furniture) it reminded me of the old adage to "make sure to photograph your design before anyone moves in and messes it up…".
Also, please read the description of the project. I am considering having a weekly post of "Say what?" writing by design blogs describing the project's design intent and associated quotes pontificating on the merits of the end result.
BTW, just think of the merits of a new film blockbuster using buildings instead of vehicles for the next generation of Transformer movies (staring of course a young and frustrated architect).
Buy this Book about Dieter Rams, "As Little Design as Possible" It will make you (visually) happy and content.

Dieter Rams' Ten Principles of good design:
Project – Containers of Hope – Architizer – Empowering Architecture: architects, buildings, interior design, materials, jobs, competitions, design schools
Jul 28, 2011 thinking design
We live in a 'Convent' that has a "Art Jury" for all things architectural. Even need permission to change the color of your door…
While the intent is (kinda) understood, the execution for progressive architecture and new building systems are not at all encouraged. In the 1920′s Lilian Rice was an architectural game-changer in the planning and design for Rancho Santa Fe, CA area (with much support from the firm of RIchard Requa and Herber Jackson). I doubt if she would support the notion that all buildings being built over 90 years later should still be expected to duplicate her iconic forms.
The rural character of our Southern California area would welcome a variety of new architectural building systems, to include this example of "container" design. Unfortunately, this will be a long time coming for 'Art Jury' and building code compliance.
From Architizer:
"Gabriela Calvo and Marco Peralta dreamed of living in their fantastic property 20 minutes outside of the city of San Jose, Costa Rica; where they could be with their horses and enjoy the natural landscape.
They made the very bold choice of exploring with me the possibility of creating a very inexpensive house made out of disregarded shipping containers that allowed them to be dept free and live the life they always dreamed of…"
Link above to site will show over 25 images of the site, architecture and interior.
BTW, a nice overview of Ms. Rice at the Rancho Santa Fe Historical Society:
"You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete."

'If somebody kept a very accurate record of a human being, going through the era from the Gay 90s, from a very different kind of world through the turn of the century — as far into the twentieth century as you might live. I decided to make myself a good case history of such a human being and it meant that I could not be judge of what was valid to put in or not. I must put everything in, so I started a very rigorous record'

For December 2012 we've taken inspiration from the classic plastic Army Man and made the Helper Dragon the same shade of green. Put a Helper Dragon under (or on) the tree this year!
Designed and sculpted by Tim Biskup, the Helper Dragon is the very first Roto-a-Matic figure. Made in a vintage Mold-a-Rama machine that we've rehabbed and renamed the Roto-a-Matic, the Helper Dragon is 4.5 inches of blow-molded polyethylene art! Each figure comes with it's own Certificate of Authenticity indicating the name of the figure, name of the artist, date of manufacture and color.
About the Roto-a-Matic
The Roto-a-Matic™ began it�s life as a vintage Mold-a-Rama* machine, invented in the mid-1950�s by Tike Miller, formerly of Quincy, Illinois. If you are lucky enough to have lived in the few midwest states (as well as some parts of California and Florida) where Mold-a-Rama machines have been operating for the past 40-plus years you have probably seen one at a zoo or a museum making souvenir animals, dinosaurs and the like.
Our machine once lived in the Los Angeles Zoo where it last made kangaroos, but was retired after decades of service. We have lovingly rehabbed this machine, re-christening it The Roto-a-Matic™. Then we asked some of our artist and toy designer friends to make new sculpts for the machine so it now makes art "toys" instead of zoo souvenirs, but the spirit is still the same�visit us in Chicago, put in your token and see your toy made right before your eyes! There�s nothing better than the feel of the warm plastic as you reach into the bin to pull out your newly made treasure. We sincerely hope you enjoy this figure as much as we have enjoyed making it possible.
For more information please visit the Roto-a-Matic Project Blog at http://roto-a-matic.com.
Visit us at 2780 N Lincoln Avenue right on the border between Chicago's Lincoln Park and Lakeview neighborhoods. The closest train stop is the Brown Line Diversey station.
