Bryan Singer is in talks to bring a big screen version of Battlestar Galactica to theaters. Originally he was set to develop the television series reboot in 2001 but was c-blocked by the Taliban. The gig later went to Ron Moore and the rest is history. No word yet on the creative direction of the feature but let's hope it wraps up a little tighter than the new series did. I find it kind of odd that Universal is already rebooting a franchise that practically just completed its successful run. If this is the new norm, can we get a do-over on Transformers 2?

LEGION Red-Band Trailer – Watch more MOVIE TRAILERSThe new red-band trailer for LEGION hit the nets today and it looks like a winner so far. Paul Bettany stars as a loose-cannon version of Michael the Archangel, who comes down to Earth against God's wishes in order to ensure the savior of humanity currently incubating in his mother's womb survives an onslaught of evil demons. Phew. It's like the Catholic church rewrote the script for TERMINATOR 2 and managed to keep the badassitude. If only the Bible had calculating-ass, glock-wielding angels and demon grandmas dropping F-bombs before tearing off people's faces, maybe I would have stayed Catholic. Maybe after Monopoly, Candyland and Battleship, a studio can give the Bible a much needed cinematic update (with a cameo from Brendan Fraser and music by Kid Rock, of course.)Here are your decidedly most unholy links of the day: Ashley Smith Appears To Not Own A Bathing Suit (Gorillamask)How To Get A Bartender's Attention (Holytaco)Neverending Story Van Lady Vs.

Peer pressure in high school can be a real bitch, so kudos to Megan Fox for devoting a few minutes of her time to talk about what can be done to combat it. Granted, the only peer pressure she probably ever had to endure in high school was Michael Bay's casting car wash, but Fox gives a no-holds-barred, uncensored and sure-fire approach for all the ladies out there who have to cope with the lascivious behavior of teenage boys… and if there's one thing we learned about Fox during our coverage of JENNIFER'S BODY at Comic-Con, it's that she's best when uncensored. Enjoy. And try not to get killed and eaten when school starts back up, guys.

Julia Child has been dead for five years, but this past weekend the PBS star was resurrected. Her biopic, JULIE & JULIA, took second place at the box office, a feat that is even more impressive when you consider the filmmakers watered down the interesting tale of Child's life with the inane exploits of some shitty blogger (pot, kettle, black). The fact that Hollywood was able to turn a PBS star who looks like a tranny version of Herman Munster into box office gold is sure to get noticed, and if there's one thing Hollywood likes to do, it's run an idea into the ground. Since it's only a matter of time before some desperate studio green lights a similar film, we here at Screen Junkies have compiled a list of the top five PBS personalities who deserve a movie. All we're asking for in return is a producer credit and 10% of the domestic gross (and 20% of the international).
The world's greatest zombie comic book is shuffling its way toward a small screen adaptation. The ridiculously rad Frank Darabont is in final talks to write and direct The Walking Dead for AMC. If you're unfamiliar with the books, the story centers on a group of strangers who must fight for survival in a zombie-infested world. Though the focus is on how we deal with one another once society and the creature comforts crumble, there is quite a bit of disturbing gore throughout. This is super exciting and Darabont is the perfect choice to helm. I'm also very excited that zombies will finally be brought to the small screen. The zombies on The Hills don't count because those are fast zombies. (/Film)Sink your teeth into these fleshy morning links…Studios line up for Kick-Ass.

Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds. You have to think the movie would make Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen-amounts of money if every moviegoer were Jewish and an action movie aficionado. While we at Screen Junkies are decidedly action movie lovers, we are also mostly of the gentile persuasion. So, while we already have our Basterds tickets for opening weekend, we fully appreciate how gratifying the film might be all the more gratifying for someone whose family had to actually endure the atrocities of the Nazis. The idea of hearing a Jewish perspective on a movie that centers on Jews brutally killing a bunch of people who brutally killed Jews always had an interesting ring to it. Luckily for us, our friends at Heeb Magazine read our minds, and passed writer Oliver Noble's review of the flick on to us for a gander. As you can see from the beginning of Noble's piece, Tarantino seems to have nailed his key demo:

In SPREAD, opening this Friday, Ashton Kutcher plays Nikki, a high-end lothario who has slept his way into a life of privilege. We haven't seen the film, but we're pretty sure that we'd rather it focused on Kutcher's co-star Margarita Levieva, if only to give us more screen time with her. In the film, Levieva plays Heather, who turns out to be a grifter just like Nikki… and the plot thickens. But it got us thinking that Heather, no matter how good she is at swindling through sex, has got some pretty stiff competition cinematically speaking. The following ten sexpots are Screen Junkies' picks for the 10 Hottest Female Grifters in Movies. Angelina Jolie as Julie Russell ORIGINAL SIN (2001)
1980's nostalgia continues to boom as Paul Reubens has announced that he'll be dusting off the red bow-tie. The LA Times reports that Pee-wee Herman will perform onstage in Hollywood this November for a limited engagement at the Music Box @ Fonda. Perhaps if this run is successful it will lead to the big screen productions Reubens has been trying to get off the ground for the last nine years. The actor stated, "I've put part of him away for a long time but part of him has always been here with me. I think it will be like riding a bike — which is not a bad analogy for Pee-wee, by the way." Although his humor is off the beaten track, I'm glad that Reubens decided to pound the pavement and put this show together. His laziness was beginning to rub me the wrong way. On an unrelated note, I wonder if he listens to The Strokes?Check out these big adventurous morning links…Exclusive interview with District 9 director Neill Blomkamp.

THIS IS A WARNING. If you've come to this page with the intention of being aroused you should turn back now. You saw the word "NUDE" and thought everything was going to be hunky-dory, but you are sorely mistaken. There are no perky breasts or tight rumps to be found here, my friends. We're about to showcase a few outstanding nude scenes that won't leave you standing at attention. Sometimes they're for a laugh, sometimes they're for dramatic effect, but all of them are guaranteed to make you…uncomfortable. So here's your heads up, Screen Junkies.

I LOVE YOU, MAN – Behind the Vomit – Watch more Funny VideosEarlier this year, we put together a list of classic vomit scenes from film, prompted by the now infamous scene of Paul Rudd spackling his innards all over Jon Favreau. The clip's taken its place in the pantheon of puke of film, and we've now probably watched the scene over a dozen times, because it's just so damn convincing. And we were never quite sure just how the director John Hamburg pulled it off so convincingly… until now.The exclusive DVD clip – which appears on the upcoming I LOVE YOU, MAN DVD & Blu-Ray – above gives us an all-access glimpse behind the vomit. The amount of work that went into making this happen sort of blew our minds. It's like watching Peter Jackson constructing an FX shot from LORD OF THE RINGS, only instead of Elijah Wood waxing poetic about boysenberries with Sir Ian McKellan or whatever they talked about, you have ANCHORMAN's Brian Fantana projectile vomiting Campbell's Chunky Minestrone all over the director of the IRON MAN movies. I LOVE YOU, MAN starring Paul Rudd, Jason Segel and Rashida Jones arrives on DVD & Blu-Ray Tuesday, August 11th, 2009.
Above is the first official trailer for cursed-but-dogged director Terry Gilliam's THE IMAGINARIUM OF DOCTOR PARNASSUS. That poor ex-Python man just can't seem to make a movie without something going horribly wrong. Before it was natural disasters shutting down THE MAN WHO KILLED DON QUIXOTE (check out the documentary LOST IN LA MANCHA to see what I mean) and this time is was the tragic death of the lead actor (Heath Ledger). But like Dr. Parnassus, Gilliam wouldn't let mortality stop him, and not only kept Ledger in the film, but also added three others to round out the part of "Tony." You can see Ledger plus Johnny Depp, Jude Law, and Colin Farrell all in the clip above, which was said to have made Frank Caliendo's mimicry boner explode.

ZOMBIELAND Red Band Trailer – Watch more Movie Trailers After Shaun of the Dead, the idea of making a good zombie comedy must seem daunting to any sane person. And while the green band trailer for Zombieland didn't make anyone immediately name it the successor to Shaun, the newly released red band trailer embraces the odd-couple pairing of Jesse Eisenberg and Woody Harrelson and the gratuitous zombie violence… all of which makes this trailer a fun watch.

The two hit it off almost immediately, and find they share much more in common than they originally thought when Kratos is introduced to Athena's father Zeus (Michael Sadorf), the same father who abandoned Kratos at an early age. Determined to reconnect with his son after more than a decade of absence, Zeus forbids Kratos from seeing Athena, yet the star-crossed lovers find themselves inexplicably attracted to one another, despite the newfound revelation of their relation.

As you may know, right now I'm trying to pare down my stash. I started with taupes, and now I'm moving on to my other eyeshadows to see which ones make the cut. This week, I decided to try some rusty red browns – I tend to avoid them like the plague usually because I find hints of red just bring out the surface redness in my skin and around my eyes and I look a little…sickly. (Don't ask why I have so many if I'm apparently so terrified of them – put it down to fits of madness)
So I fully went into this look expecting to look…sick chic. (pronounced 'sick sheek' or 'sick chick'? – You decide!)
But actually I was pleasantly surprised. Although it did strike me as a little odd that I'd matched my eyeshadow to my hair.
For my face and brows I used:
- Brushes: Hakuhodo B505BkSl, Hakuhodo G5521, and Laura Mercier Concealer brush (not pictured)
- Brows: Shu Uemura Hard 9 Pencil in Walnut Brown, Clarins Double Fix Mascara
- Base: Maybelline Pure BB Mineral 8 in 1 BB Base (Jp version), Bobbi Brown Corrector in Porcelain Bisque, Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage SC1
- Colour: Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector Pearl, Chanel Notorious Ombre Contraste, Bobbi Brown Illuminating Bronzer Antigua
For eyes and lips:
- Brushes: All Hakuhodo: 235, Kokutan Eyeshadow SL, G5515BkSl, S142 (black handle)
- Mascara (not pictured): Tiffa Volume Mascara
- Eyeshadow: L'oreal Infallible Bronze Divine, Addiction Fudge (on the lid), Shu Uemura ME Medium Brown 885 (outer corner, crease, liner), Shu Uemura P Pink 125 (inner corner highlight)
- Lips: Lunasol Full Glam Liquid Lips 06 Bright Pink
So, while I started out this look fully intending to purge my red-browns, I actually ended up loving them and I'll definitely be reaching for them more often.
Are there any products that have surprised you recently? Any new colours you've found that suit you better than you expected?

Product Details
The ADM2682E/ADM2687E are fully integrated 5 kV rms signal and power isolated data transceivers with ±15 kV ESD protection and are suitable for high speed communication on multipoint transmission lines. The ADM2682E/ADM2687E include an integrated 5 kV rms isolated dc-to-dc power supply that eliminates the need for an external dc-to-dc isolation block.They are designed for balanced transmission lines and comply with ANSI/TIA/EIA-485-A-98 and ISO 8482:1987(E).
The devices integrate Analog Devices, Inc., iCoupler® technology to combine a 3-channel isolator, a three-state differential line driver, a differential input receiver, and Analog Devices isoPower® dc-to-dc converter into a single package. The devices are powered by a single 5 V or 3.3 V supply, realizing a fully integrated signal and power isolated RS-485 solution.
The ADM2682E/ADM2687E drivers have an active high enable. An active low receiver enable is also provided, which causes the receiver output to enter a high impedance state when disabled.
The devices have current limiting and thermal shutdown features to protect against output short circuits and situations where bus contention may cause excessive power dissipation. The parts are fully specified over the industrial temperature range and are available in a highly integrated, 16-lead, wide- body SOIC package with >8 mm creepage and clearance.
The ADM2682E/ADM2687E contain isoPower technology that uses high frequency switching elements to transfer power through the transformer.

Emu Oil
Treating any skin condition—psoriasis, eczema, rosacea, burns, wounds, or scars—just got easier with the beauty world's latest darling, emu oil. Rich in both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, the oil from this Australian bird offers an anti-inflammatory, cell-regenerating solution. What makes emu oil so potent? It's transdermal, which means it penetrates all layers of skin, instead of just the first couple like most of your regular lotions, potions, and oils. In addition, the fatty acid composition of emu oil is similar to that of the human body, so we absorb it readily.
Caveat: Make sure the emu oil you buy comes from birds fed a healthy vegetarian diet so you get the most benefit. "Research shows that emus fed soybeans have a higher level of healthy polyunsaturated fats compared to those fed beef tallow," says Valori Treloar, a holistic dermatologist in Boston.
We like: Thunder Ridge Emu; this company raises its own soy-fed emus without hormones or antibiotics and harvests them humanely. ($14, 2 oz oil; $30, 90 capsules; thunderridgeemu.com). Or try Laid In Montana's Refreshing Lotion and Fatty Acid supplements ($20, 8 oz oil; $29, 90 capsules; laidinmt.com).

When DIRTY DANCING came out in 1987, it changed my life.
As I breathlessly watched Baby and Johnny stun the country club set to the soaring notes of "Time of Your Life," I realized that dance had the power to change things! Dance could overcome social and racial barriers; it could break down prejudice; it could even transform a really annoying person like Baby into someone awesome! Thanks to DIRTY DANCING, I came to understand the power of dance, and consequently discovered my favorite genre of film: the dance movie.
Baby and Johnny paved the way for future silver screen amalgamations of love on the dance floor; in other words, without DIRTY DANCING, there would be no STEP UP 2: THE STREETS (a horrifying thought, I know). With such a monumental legacy, DIRTY DANCING deserves our utmost respect, as well as a high amount of romantic mega-sighs. Obviously, there's no better place to celebrate it than Girlie Night, where chair dancing is encouraged and absolutely no one will be put in the corner. (Sarah Pitre)

Making Limoncello
Posted 26 January 2005 - 08:04 AM
Posted 26 January 2005 - 07:31 PM
I'm a die hard limoncello fan - my gioia luisa from last trip to Italy is gone - glad I looked on the gullet - always a good place to find these interesting tidbits. I'm thinking of starting two batches at once, lemon and blood orange. I'll report - don't worry, I will!
Posted 30 January 2005 - 12:13 PM
The zest infusing in the 100-proof vodka. (I used Absolut, since it was the only brand on offer at our crappy state store.) This is shown at approximately the 2-week mark; I wish I had taken pictures earlier in the process to give you a comparison, but I didn't.
Here's the infusion with the zest filtered out, the 750ml of 80-proof vodka (again, Absolut), and the 1:1 simple syrup.
This is the vodka, simple syrup, and infusion, poured into the big bottles before blending. I though it was pretty like this.
The mixed bergamocello, in its flasks. (I need to get some more!)
...and a finished flask with the label. (I couldn't get a clear enough shot of the label, but it says "January 2004 -- Bergamocello -- Bergamot digistivo"
The finished product is really interesting and good. Not too sweet, reminiscent of grapefruit with hints of spice and spicy herbs. It's almost middle-eastern or indian in flavor: cardamom, nigella, coriander. It's definitely similar to, but distinctly different from, the flavors in the bergamot juice. I wish I could upload a glass for you all to try!
I'm pretty happy with the first effort.

This is just about the funniest thing I've ever read. I would never have expected to end up in song. Too funny! This has absolutely made my evening!
More importantly, the Bergamotcello is a success. So how cool is that? Yet another well thought out experiment goes good.
I just love it when that happens!

Taste is very very good and effort is very small, so of course I will do this again. The only thing missing is the classic cloudy pale yellow color. My limoncello turned out very clear and almost an amber color. I wonder what I did wrong, if anyone has advice, let me know. Meanwhile we will be happily drinking it and sharing with our lucky friends!
Posted 07 April 2005 - 08:46 AM
SushiCat, if you want cloudy limoncello, just add the sugar syrup while it is still warm. It's considered a fault, but a lot of people think it's pretty that way. I'm going to make my next batch cloudy, too.

Put down my first attempt at limoncello last night. I'm using the method from the foodtv Batali recipe.
Zest of 8 Lisbon Lemons, two oranges, a few sprigs of Lemon Verbena (was pruning and figured what the heck) and one bottle of finlandia vodka. For some reason, I couldn't find 100 proof vodka at the liquor store. I should have asked, maybe they hide the rocket fuel behind the counter. I see Absolut makes one, any other manufacturers?
Batali only steeps the zest in vodka for 4 days before adding syrup. Other more traditional recipes I've found suggest 10-40 days. Maybe a shorter steep is OK, if you are zesting with microplane?
Hoping for some decent organic strawberries at the farmer's market Saturday, for Liquore Di Fragole.
Posted 21 April 2005 - 07:01 PM
I've just finished the first two batches, one lemon and one kaffir lime.
I used 100 proof Smirnoff with zested organic lemons and kaffir lime leaves for the other batch.
Not very happy with the kaffir lime.
Quite a bitter taste, but the limoncello is wonderful.
We taste tested it against the one we had in the fridge that was store bought and ours won, hands down!
The store bought one almost tastes like it has some sort of weird sweetener in.
Ahh, but the homemade one....lovely!
I added the simple syrup while it was still warm as I like the cloudiness so thanks to Lindycat who posted that.
And of course after it was frozen it's even cloudier.
I see a few other Vancouverites here, perhaps a tasting is in order?
Thanks again for all the info.
Great thread.
Here are a few before and after shots...

That's too bad to hear that the kaffir lime leaf infusion was too bitter. Do you think you over-infused it?
Either over infused or I just plain used too many lime leaves. Not sure.
I think just a scant amount would be better.
Now I'm trying to remember how many I put in there....I think about 10 for a 1/2 bottle of vodka...obviously too much.
We enjoyed the lemon so much though that I don't think I'd bother with making another lime batch.
50% alcohol by volume is 100 proof (or so they told me at the Government Liquor store).
Smirnoff Triple Distilled, blue label.
I purchased it at Park Royal but I'm sure it's in most of the LDB's.
Let us know how it turns out!

After reading this thread for a little more than a year, yesterday I started my own batch using Katie's recipie. I used my microplane and a bottle of 100 proof vodka. I reached down to the bottom shelf and got the cheap kind. I have no pictures but sitting on my wife's Hooier cupboard is a gallon glass crock with my infusinon starting. I am sure by the time it gets hot I will have wonderful stuff. Anything touted by Katie, the co-leader of us Pennsylvanias is always aces.
I will report back how it turns out
No pictures, but I am very happy with how this turned out. I tasted it just after I mixed it and was not real happy. I thought it was not lemony enough. However, after I let it mellowin the freezer a couple of days it was great. Very happy with this and am already thinking of when to start another batch so not as to run out

The target proof/percentage for most liqueurs is around 60/30, so depending on the proof of alcohol you started with, you don't want to increase the dilution beyond that point.
On my second attempt to make Lemoncello, I'm at the halfway stage. As the first didn't go well, I used just half a bottle of vodka this time around. So I've got 350 ml of lemon infused vodka. It's been sitting for around 50 days. Can anyone help with the exact quantities for the second stage, adding the sugar-syrup/vodka? Any advice on how to do this? If you can give metric measurements instead of cups, so much the better.
Aside from that consideration, make a simple syrup, cool it, filter your limoncello, and mix in the syrup to taste.
I forgot to ask, what went wrong with the last one?
edited to add question.

Too sweet, among other things. And with my poor maths, I may have converted cups incorrectly to metric. So if anyone can provide idiot's instructions to Step 2 in metric, I'd be really grateful. I used 100 proof, and I've now got 350 ml of lemon infused vodka.
Make half the amount of simple syrup as stated in the recipe (as you only used half a bottle of vodka).
When you add the simple syrup to the infused vodka, start with a third of the above amount and then add a little at a time to taste until you go...hmmmm.
Does that make sense?
And...it's supposed to be sweet.
How much suger syrup you add is up to you, but remember it's basically an appertif or dessert sort of drink.
Posted 09 August 2005 - 01:50 AM
use half as much simple syrup as vodka!
since you can drink 100 proof vodka straight, make a simple syrup using 100ml of water and 100 gr of sugar.
add it a little at at time..tasting for sweetness!
not sweet enough.. make more syrup!
I notice a lot of you use a microplaner for zesting..
I use a potato peeler.. difference?
I live in Italy and have been making limoncello for about 15 years... use whole grain and only 3 days...

As long as you have added no other liquid to start, you've currently got 187 ml of alcohol and 187 ml of water. By divina's recipe you add another 187 ml of liquid. You end up with 562 ml total, 187 of which is still alcohol. By my math, that is around 33% alcohol or 66 proof. Perfect.
spelled divina wrong.

When diluting the mixture, use the same amount of vodka/everclear that you originally used for steeping. If you're using 100-proof vodka, you'll want to use simple syrup equal to 1/3 the total amount of vodka. For example:
- 750ml of 100-proof vodka for the steep
- 750ml of 100-proof vodka for the dilution
- 500ml of 1:1 simple syrup (or to taste)
If you're using Everclear/grain alcohol for the original steep, you can bring it down to a drinkable level by using 80-proof vodka for the dilution, or making a weaker simple syrup (more water than sugar).
Edited to add: I also use Microplanes for zesting... works much better (and faster) than a peeler or a traditional zester.

I notice a lot of you use a microplaner for zesting..
I use a potato peeler.. difference?
The microplane is superior because it removes the yellow part of the peel only, with no white pith at all to turn the mixture bitter. It also cuts the yellow-only peel into little tiny shreds that infuse better because far more surface area is exposed to the alcohol. More surface area = more oils in the finished alcohol.
I live in Italy and have been making limoncello for about 15 years... use whole grain and only 3 days...
I talked about this upthread. I prefer the 100 proof vodka because it gives a smoother end result. I've found the grain alcohol is just too harsh (for me) in the final product, no matter how dilute. It's just "hot" and unpleasant to drink. This is my opinion only, and of course others' mileage with grain alcohol may vary. I also do as ScorchedPalate suggests and dilute with "regular" 80 proof vodka after infusing. Just my preference.

Personally, I like the idea of using a high proof, relatively neutral grappa for limoncello.
Posted 09 August 2005 - 05:20 PM
I wonder if it's simply the case that all the 97% alcohol available for sale is simply crap quality. Of course, even vodka of the very best quality starts out life as ~97% pure alcohol and is diluted to bottle proof. So it should theoretically be possible to make a "not harsh" 97% alcohol. Since all the commercial limoncello producers use 97% pure alcohol to do their infusions, and these aren't generally perceived as harsh, some pretty decent high proof neutral spirits must exist.
Personally, I like the idea of using a high proof, relatively neutral grappa for limoncello.
I think we discussed this before too. It's all about the target market for "consumer" vs. commercial neutral spirits. Frat boys dont care how harsh the Everclear is because well, sugary powdered drink mixes can mask a lot of evil. If there were more of a demand for high quality consumer available grain alcohol, it would undoubtedly be available. Why not make the buck on something so cheap and readily available?
I love the idea of using a pomace based grappa rather than grain, but the end result would definitely be different. Just as Charbay vodka has that lovely underlying fruitiness from being produced from grapes, I suspect the end taste result from any infusion using grappa would be similarly influenced.
Actually, many times in the production of distilled spirits, the "heads" and "tails" of the run are discarded. I wonder if such a thing is rebottled during the production of fine grappa and sold much the same way as pure grain alcohol is sold here in the US?
Research required....

I'm currently infusing with a 60% grappa. Got some limes on the go (as well as a strange attempt to make peach bitters). I'll report back.
All in all, I'd say the 95% gave a very good result, but the Italian stuff might be a lot better than Everclear.
Posted 09 September 2005 - 01:23 PM
I plan to use Seville oranges for bitterness, if I can find them.
As for sweet oranges, I could use suggestions. My favorite for eating are Minneola Tangelos. What other types would work well - Blood, Naval, Clemetine, Dancy Tangerine?
Naval and Tangelos are easiest for me to find, at least right now - I gather that Blood oranges, Clementines, and tangerines aren't in season right now.
So what have you had the most success with?

GOUVERNEUR Insured or not, all are welcome at E.J. Noble Hospitals primary care center operated by Community Health Center of the North County.
Were here. Were excited, said Doris A. Chenier, director of Cerebral Palsy of the North Country, which operates the community health centers in Malone, Canton and now Gouverneur. I dont think it was any secret there were issues with the hospital. This just seemed an opportunity to ensure primary care would stay in the community.
The state Public Health and Health Planning Council has given St. Lawrence Health System the umbrella organization that will oversee Canton-Potsdam Hospital in Potsdam, and E.J. Noble the go-ahead, contingent upon approval of a reorganization plan. Under the proposal, the nonprofit Gouverneur Hospital will become the operator of what was E.J. Noble.
The Gouverneur hospital had heavy financial losses during the last three years and was forced by the state Department of Health to close its inpatient services for about three months in 2012 because of quality of care issues.
To ensure continued health care to the community, a reorganizational plan included the relationship with the federally qualified Community Health Center.
We certainly wanted to see that continue, Mrs. Chenier said.
The primary care center accepts most insurance plans, along with Medicaid, Medicare and Family Health Plus. There is a sliding scale based on income, with a nominal fee of $10 if people qualify, said Amy L. Dougan, coordinator of community development for Cerebral Palsy.
For appointments or more information, call 287-4440.
The clinic, with 13 examination rooms, is already busy with pediatrician Donald C. Schuessler Jr., internist George M. Dodds, family practitioner Teresa Lang and nurse practitioners Andrew LaFrance and Rachel I. Raven.
The clinic has a case manager to help patients and it provides womens health services and works with the St. Lawrence County cancer screening program.
The hospital is expected to benefit from the clinics presence. Patients who use it are more likely to have other work done at the hospital, such as their lab work and other medical tests.
The clinic could become even more active as the Affordable Care Act rolls out, and it will have a staff member who can help people find their way through the system.
As more people become insured, theyre going to seek care, Mrs. Chenier said. Itll probably be too small, too soon. We have quite a practice here.
Every patient who comes is new to Community Health Center, so they will have paperwork to fill out even though they may be coming to a doctor they have seen for years.
Were trying to work out all those kind of bumps, Mrs. Chenier said.

Enzyme action eliminates tough stains and odors

Enzyme-based cleaners work great on organic stains, like pet accidents or food, and are designed to provide thorough cleaning. They work exceptionally well when covered with a moist towel and allowed plenty of time (up to 12 hours) to work.
The enzyme action found in these cleaners is like that of healthy probiotics found in some types of yogurt that help "eat" the microscopic particles that make up the stain. Once the spray is released from the bottle, the probiotics are activated and begin working. If kept moist, they'll continue to multiply and remove the material until it's gone. That's why keeping a moist towel on the stain and giving it plenty of time to work will ensure that the stain is thoroughly removed.
For best results, get the stain matter as thin as possible prior to treating it with the enzyme-based cleaner. You can do this by removing as much from the surface as possible, and by extracting some of the matter out with an upright or portable carpet cleaner.
Price, promotions, styles and availability may vary by retail location and on other online sites. Retailers alone determine these factors.
How much does shipping cost?
We offer free standard shipping on all orders over $30 on bissell.com! No coupon code is needed.

When will I receive my tracking number?Tracking numbers are sent to you in an email about 24-48 hours after your order ships. This delay allows the shipment to be processed by the shipment carrier's website. Your order should still arrive within the original estimated window.
