Nutrex - Lipo - 6 (120 Liquid Caps) - (RM120.00)
So What Is Lipo 6?
Lipo-6 is basically a fat burner. It has 6 key ingredients that have been included in the pill because of their fat burning properties.
Together these 6 ingredients work together to burn fat which is why Lipo 6 is such a popular weight loss pill.
Are There Any Side Effects To Using Lipo 6?
So it's important to note the possible side effects of using pills. I myself didn't experience any negative side effects from using Lipo 6 and I also have 5 friends using these pills and they haven't noticed any either so side effects don't seem to be common with Lipo 6 but here's what the manufacturers say is possible.
1) Increased sweating.
2) Loss of sleep. (You can avoid this by not taking the pills a few hours before you go to bed.)
3) Increased heart rate.
4) Light headaches.
So they are the possible side effects. Nothing major but it's important to know.
How To Get The Best Results From Lipo 6
*The first thing I recommend is that when you first get the pills don't take the recommended dosage straight away. The pills are quite strong so start slowly for the first few days by only taking half the recommended dose.
*At the moment I'm getting the best results by taking 4 capsules per day. I take 2 in the morning when I wake up half an hour before breakfast and then 2 more capsules in the afternoon. This seems to be a good routine.
*I think it's also important to note that Lipo 6 is not a miracle pill. You need to exercise and eat right at the same time. If you're overweight and want to lose fat then don't expect you can just take these pills and all the fat will fall off. You will lose some fat just by taking these pills but if you really want to get good results you need to exercise too.
*The same goes for people who want to build muscles. You need to work out as well as eat right with these pills but I'm sure if you're a muscle builder reading this you already knew that.
*Lipo 6 really is powerful stuff though so whether you're a muscle builder or someone who wants to lose fat you'll see some amazing results if you eat right, exercise/ work out and add Lipo 6 to your routine.
What Does It Feel Like After Taking Lipo 6?
*Again I'll say that these pills are quite strong. You'll definitely feel some changes in your body when you're on them. First off you'll probably feel very energetic as if you've just drunk a cup or two of coffee. Not in a jittery way though.
*The second thing you'll probably notice is when you're working out your heart beat will get a lot faster. This is the optimal state in which your body burns fat and it really makes your work out go a lot further.
*The third feeling is really hard to explain. When you're working out you can sort of sense that that something worthwhile is going on in your body as if the pill is really working hard to burn the fat, the only way I can explain it is you feel a tight warmth

VPX - Meltdown 120 Capsules - (RM180.00)
Meltdown® Science: Combines the synergistic fat burning power of beta andrenergic agonists (MethylSynephrine) and alpha andrenergic antagonists (Yohimbine HCl, alpha-Yohimbine and 11-Hydroxy Yohimbine). In simpler terms it activates fat burning mechanisms in your body while simultaneously blocking the internal biochemistry that prevents you from burning fat by guarding one of the body's key fat burning hormones called Norepinephrine (NE). When fat burning is both promoted and protected at the same time we call this effect "synergistic". So, instead of 9 (activation factor) + 8 (protection factor) equaling 17 on the fat burning scale, this synergistic combination has a geometric effect of 72!

How many ways can one eat prickly pear ice cream…? I have only begun to explore this question.
Last week Bob and I went to the Farmer's Market. As the weather is starting to head towards Fall, we are finding it much more enjoyable to mosey around the marketplace.
There was a vendor that was selling Prickly Pear Popsicles and the raw fruit too. So we decided to buy some. We actually had no idea on what to do with or how to prepare them, but we always have Google! :) Bob really got excited reading about the preparation because it involved a torch!
This fruit is also called Cactus pear, Tuna fruit, Indian figs and Mission cactus. Good-quality prickly pear is egg-shaped and has yellow to magenta coloring depending on the variety. Ripen prickly pears at room temperature. The small seeds are edible, but the rind is not. Be careful of spines that were not removed. Prickly pears are low in Saturated Fat, and very low in Cholesterol and Sodium. They're also a good source of Calcium and Potassium, and a very good source of Dietary Fiber, Vitamin C and Magnesium.
Never in my life have I seen such a natural color that was so vibrant! What a gorgeous shade it is, don't you agree?!!
This looks beautiful. I will definitely have to try this – with the green variety, too. There is a simpler way to peel and enjoy prickly pears that doesn't involve a torch. Using a fork to hold the fruit steady, cut off both ends. Then make a cut in the peel lengthwise. Then, use your fork and knife to peel it. The peel should come off very easily if the fruit is ripe. Hope that makes sense. If I had some prickly pears, I'd take some pictures to illustrate.
I was lucky to be at the Farmer's Market on this day. It will now be unforgettable in more than one way. :)
Amie Sue blessed me with a taste of this treat! The color is glorious. Not only did it look great it tasted fabulous! But, even better was the healing effect of the prickly pear on my body.
Now you can add "Healer" to your title. Oh, and don't forget "Hand Model". Lol

By BOBBY HARRISON / Daily Journal Jackson Bureau
JACKSON – The fight over the so-called Arizona immigration law, which will be considered in Mississippi during the upcoming 2011 legislative session, is in reality a nuanced battle dealing with complex legal questions.
Not surprisingly, opponents of the law and supporters argue in generalities that are often misleading and, in some cases, inaccurate.
Supporters say the state law is needed because the federal government is not doing its job, even though statistics show that more undocumented people are being deported than ever before.
Opponents argue that the Arizona law takes the unprecedented step of making local law enforcement officials immigration agents when in reality they already can be designated to detain illegal immigrants.
Mississippi Senate Judiciary A Chair Joey Fillingane, R-Sumrall, held hearings on the Arizona law last week at the state Capitol.
He intends to introduce a version of the Arizona law during the 2011 session even though major portions, including the most controversial aspects of the statute, have been blocked by a judge. The issue currently is tied up in the federal court system.
Fillingane rationalized passing the law in Mississippi even though it is in legal limbo, saying the federal courts with jurisdiction over Mississippi might reach a different conclusion than the judges on the more liberal West Coast.
Fillingane concedes, however, that the issues surrounding the law ultimately will be decided by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Proposing changes
The heart of Filingame's 17-page draft proposal states that law enforcement upon "lawful contact … where reasonable suspicion exists that the person is an alien who is unlawfully present in the United States, a reasonable attempt shall be made, when practicable, to determine the immigration status of the person."
That portion of the Arizona law has been blocked by the federal courts.
But Mississippi law enforcement officers testified last week before Fillingane's Judiciary A Committee that they already detain illegal immigrants when they are found.
There is even a federal program available to help reimburse state and local law enforcement for capturing and holding undocumented immigrants, though the money is far from enough to provide full compensation.
Mississippi Public Safety Commissioner Steve Simpson said Highway Patrol troopers will detain people who do not have a driver's license when making a stop for another reason, such as for speeding, if the person is believed to be unlawfully in the country.
Federal immigration officials are contacted, he said, but they might choose not to respond if the person had not committed a felony crime.
Madison County Sheriff Toby Trowbridge told the committee his agency picks up one or two illegal immigrants almost every hour. He said federal officials normally pick them up from his jail within 48 hours.
He said the illegal immigration situation actually "has gotten a little better."
If local law enforcement already can detain illegal immigrants and hold them for federal deportation hearings, why is the so-called Arizona law so controversial?
The primary, subtle change from current law is that the Arizona proposal requires local law enforcement to check for immigration status. It uses the word "shall."
"It makes all local law enforcement immigration agents," said Nsombi Lambright, executive director of the ACLU of Mississippi.
"It gives them extra powers that they are not trained to do."
Federal opposition
The federal government argued in opposing the Arizona law that the nation's immigration law should be uniform and not vary from state to state.
For instance, the federal system focuses on removing felons from the country. If the federal system is being overwhelmed by states picking up illegal immigrants, the focus on felons could be lost.
Under Fillingane's proposal, law enforcement, when making "lawful contact," shall check for immigration when there is "reasonable suspicion."
Opponents said law enforcement in many jurisdictions already are stopping people of Hispanic decent just because of the way they look. They said passage of the Arizona law would only fuel that effort, though the Fillingane draft does prohibit law enforcement from relying solely on race, color or national origin.
Plus, opponents fear that illegal immigrants would be less likely to report crimes and cooperate with police if there was a chance their immigration status would be checked during "lawful contact."
Fillingane said, "I think it is common sense if an officer is making a legal stop … to have reasonable suspicion to believe a person is here illegally if he can't speak a word of English" and does not have other legal documentation.
Opponents, such as Lambright, testified, it would only be people who looked Hispanic who would be asked "to show me your papers."
The Fillingane proposal also would prevent local governments from passing laws prohibiting law enforcement from inquiring about immigration status, such as Jackson recently did.

What the hell was up with the refs tonight? It's been bad all year but this was ridiculous! The penalty the Cheli in the third that led to Carolina's game-winner never shoud have been called. The refs seriously botched this one. Anyone know where teams send tapes that they want reviewed to? I want to send this whole game in.

And what about all the calls that SHOULD have gone against the 'Canes and didn't? How many times was Cujo interfered with, not to mention all the skaters? This was probably the worst officiating I have ever seen in my life. Come on, the 'Canes were Cup Finalists, they don't need "help" from the refs to win! Damn, they ruined that game, and it started out with such promising intensity, too! Actually, they're ruining the whole sport. I am completely appalled. And that moron coach from New Jersey the other night actually had the nerve to say that refs are biased in FAVOR of Detroit. What universe is he living in? Don't know where the tapes are supposed to go, but I sure hope Lewi sends this one in. If these weren't my Red Wings whom I know and love, I wouldn't even want to watch hockey anymore- the officials are DESTROYING it.

Nozzle, Rocket Motor, Liquid Fuel, American Rocket Society
This nozzle is from an uncooled rocket motor of the American Rocket Society (ARS). It was damaged during a thirteen-second test on 2 June 1935 at Crestwood, New York, to determine the "heat resisting value of nichrome compared to the aluminum for the nozzle metal." Using liquid oxygen and gasoline, the motor's maximum thrust was 24.5 kg (54 lb) while the average was 16 kg (35 lb). The nozzle stood up "remarkably under the intense heat (c. 2,000 degrees C.)" and the "nichrome nozzles were definitely superior to the aluminum nozzles."
Between November 1932 and September 1934, the ARS attempted four launches with rudimentary rockets, two of which succeeded. Members decided that more could be learned by conducting static tests, which would also be less expensive. Static testing began in 1935 and continued until 1942. This nozzle was a gift of Peter van Dresser, an early member of ARS.

Most Americans say they enjoy traveling and that their goals include incredible travel plans. But according to a recent Capital One (NYSE: COF) survey, more than half (58 percent) say they have no specific travel bucket list of places they'd like to vacation during their lives.
As the cliché goes, the first step to achieving a goal is to write it down. Capital One hopes that people do just that when it comes to creating travel bucket lists filled with dream destinations.
The Venture Card enables travelers to get double miles on every purchase. Consumers can use those miles for any travel expense.
Several popular U.S. travel destinations topped the average American's bucket list, the survey found. As it turns out, four out of the five top destinations can be found in the United States with Hawaii (57 percent) at the top followed by the Grand Canyon (38 percent), Niagara Falls (35 percent) and New York City (33 percent). The top international choice was the Great Barrier Reef in Australia (34 percent). And, according to the survey, those who do not have a bucket list in mind haven't checked off any of the dream vacations on their list.
"I have done a great deal of traveling but there are definitely some places on my travel bucket list that I am eager to check off," said avid traveler and rewards card expert Jason Steele. "With double miles and no foreign transaction fee, the Capital One Venture Card makes it easy for me to do what I love and I'm excited to continue crossing off destinations on my bucket list."
The Capital One Venture Card hopes to start an interactive conversation with people about their travel goals, because they want to help make their travel hopes a certainty. The Venture #BucketList campaign is asking people to tweet their travel bucket list goals using #BucketList. If you need a little help deciding where you want to go, you can check out the ideas shared by others on Venture's Tumblr page venture.tumblr.com or tweet @CapitalOne.

Something about summer always has me going shoe crazy. Maybe it's the beautiful weather, the crazy sale prices or the excitement of getting to wear all my colorful accessories, but I buy more shoes during the summer than I do any other time of the year. Usually, I never tend to stick to just one designer to make sure that I have plenty of variety when it comes to getting dressed. This summer, though, I have not stopped crushing on just about every Aquazzura shoe on the market since they first came to the states.
Seeing as how the Aquazzura name is relatively new to the world of designer shoes, the Italian brand is certainly doing something right. The cutout booties and lace up sandals have "summer" written all over them. They're elegant, practical, stylish and timeless all at the same time – something that's usually pretty hard to find when it comes to world of footwear. As much as I continue to crush on everything the brand puts out, I'm anxiously awaiting what's to come for the fall collection. Take a look at some of my favorites from the brand.

Saturday afternoon, I exited the interstate, and the off ramp came up to a redlight at a major highway. I was by myself. The light was red, three cars in front of me at the light. As usual at this off ramp, there was a person off to the side, sitting on travel gear, holding a sign saying "I'm Hungry, Please Help, God Bless". I drive a pickup, my windows were down and I was enjoying the day. This fellow hollered at me, "Hey, How about help me out". I had sunglasses on, so he could not read my eyes, only my expression as I shook my head in the negative. Evidently this guy was having a bad day, or he just didn't appreciate my honesty, but he jumped up, threw his little cardboard sign like a frisbee, and came running up to the side of my truck, screaming and hollering like a madman, and just being all around disagreeable. He proceeded to question my family lineage, my physical appearance, my Vietnam Service, etc. He would make a jumping move toward my door and then draw back, inviting me to step out of the truck. I calmly watched him thru dark glasses, not saying a word, while putting my truck in Park and reaching for my weapon in my ankle holster. I emphasize he has not touched my truck nor my arm on the window. While my hand was on my weapon, the light turned green. He spit, looked at me and said, "what ya gonna do, call the po po"?.....I've still not replied to him and drove off. The three cars in front of me had female drivers. I did not take my eyes off him during the confrontation to see who was behind me. As I got on the highway, I called 911, reported the incident, and was told a Sheriffs Deputy was dispatched. I parked directly across the highway from the ramp, and waited for the deputy. In the interim, the guy had ran off into the woods at the intersection around the overpass. While parked and waiting for the Deputy, another truck pulled up next to me and stated he had been behind me, witnessed all, and had called the police as well. I thanked him, he stuck around, Deputy showed, I identified myself and presented my CWP. He thanked me, said he had already confronted this man earlier in the day and that he had called his Shift leader for back up and they would apprehend and transport to jail, which they did. The Deputy thanked me for my restraint in not drawing my weapon. WITH ALL THAT BEING SAID..my decision was NOT to present my weapon, even though I definitely felt threatened, simply because the guy DID NOT touch me or my property. I was prepared to draw, with my hand on the butt, my door was locked, so he could not have opened it and tried to pull me out, however he could have landed a blow through the open window if he had desired.
Did I make the right decision in your opinions? By the way, this guy is STILL IN JAIL. He gave address at booking of Reno, NV.

I'm very confused about campus carry in the United States in general. According to OCDO it appears a number of states do allow carry on campus. It seems tho that it is illegal in most states. I plan on going back to school within the next year and according to the map I can carry in PA on campus. I am yet to find a statue or law prohibiting that. This seems like one of those issues that it is illegal across the board because of VA Tech and various other thing I've heard, hence why I am confused :confused:
So what is the real deal about concealed carry on campus? Is it legal or not?

Chef Jorge Vallejo along with his wife Alexandra operates the Quintonil restaurant in Mexico City. Vallejo has spent time in kitchens of cruise ships, hotels like St Regis, Condessa DF and overseas. Before opening Quintonil in 2012 the couple worked at Pujol for Enrique Olvera, the famed Mexican chef who put Mexico on the international culinary scene.
Vallejo creates a very contemporary Mexican cuisine using forgotten ingredients, grains and herbs such as amaranth or quintonil in Spanish, after which the restaurant is named. Vallejo's dishes while new in their approach reference traditional dishes like chilacoyota squash with a mole or bitter herbs with a bright orange sauce and local cheese, his signature dish that he demonstrated at Mesamerica last May.
Alexandra trained in Switzerland and then handled the front of the house at Pujol, and now she runs the Quintonil dining room with aplomb. The understated restaurant with a small dining room and courtyard adjacent to the compact kitchen is located in the upscale Polanco neighborhood of the city. At the first ever 50 Best Restaurants of Latin America 2013 event in September, Quintonil won the #22 spot, a laudable feat for this young duo.
Questions for Vallejo:
What came first the love story or the dream of opening the restaurant together?
Definitely the love story. We both met while working together at Pujol. Enrique didn't know that we were dating for months, he found out much later, and Enrique was my best man at our wedding.
Is there anything you find stressful about working together?
Sometimes it is hard but we are very passionate about what we do. We are a very good team, we respect each other and take decisions together and the share the risks as well. As a couple we have the same goals.
At what age did you enter the kitchen and what was the first dish you cooked by yourself?
I started cooking when I was 16 years old as an assistant cook in a tiny restaurant with a staff of three people in the kitchen. One day the chef and his son the other cook quit their jobs and I took over the responsibility of the kitchen for one week while we looked around to find more cooks . The restaurant had a prix fix menu this changed every day so initially I cooked what I had learnt from the previous chef. Later I started to cook my own food of course but in that experience I realized that cooking is what I want to and will do for the rest of my life.
What is your philosophy of cuisine?
To do my best every day, work in a clean kitchen, work hard, and with speed.
What are the most important qualities that young people entering this profession must have?
I think first discipline, then order and finally always to be hungry to learn more. You need to be very focused if this is the life you want because it is a very hard life.
From your experience do you think it is important to train at culinary school?
It is good if you can learn in school to do things in the right way, but I feel it is important to work in a professional kitchen at the same time in order to learn practically. That was what I did since in this way you challenge yourself every day.
What is your most significant food memory from your childhood?
Each day that I spent with my grandmother it was a day to enjoy good food no matter if it was fancy or not. I learned that you need to cook and eat good food every day otherwise life is not worth anything.
What is your favorite time of the year in the region where you live and work?
I love the period from July until September and when mushrooms are in season.
You had the good fortune to train with chefs such as Olvera and Redzepi however how do you define your particular style of cuisine?
I like to think that my particular style of cooking comes from my pride in being a Mexican , specifically a contemporary Mexican citizen, so I attempt to reflect this in my way of cooking using native products, paying attention to the past but heading towards the present.
Which peers are your ideals or role models?
Enrique is my mentor, and Rene Redzepi is also a chef that I learned a lot from when I was at Noma, even now he is very supportive of and gives me great advice when I approach him.
What is it that you want to convey to your diners with your plates and what reaction are you aiming for?
I try to speak to them through my dishes to be very honest in my thoughts and in my process of cooking the dish. I always want to make good food in order to make people happy. I want to remind fellow Mexicans of our history and who we are, and I want to make people from other country's realize this and to be surprised to say Wow! This is Mexico!
How do you deal with guests who do not appreciate your presentations? Do you try to modify things to their tastes?
In food it is very difficult to give all the people what they want, at Quintonil I like to think that people come to our restaurant and allow us to cook for them with liberty.
You are a contemporary visionist in the kitchen, what inspires you every day?
I try to challenge myself every day , to be better with my team and make them better, thinking about good food inspires me, making our customers our friends inspires me. I think in cooking you need to like to give and share and that is my inspiration.
What is your definition of 'taste'?
It is a way of life and I live for the taste, it is the possibility to evoke emotions.
What is your favorite product to work with?
For me it is important to cook with the best products that I can find, it doesn't matter if it is very expensive (though I don't like to use expensive stuff) they just need to be the best quality.
Which two other cuisines do you enjoy besides Mexican?
I love Indian and Japanese cuisines.

Roses and Brass Knuckles:
A Man's Pocket Guide to Winning the Dating and Marriage Game
Rushia Brown, WNBA Veteran and author of PASSION Principles, says, "This book is a perfect combination of knowledge and comedy…every man in America needs this book"
ATLANTA – Roses and Brass Knuckles: A Man's Pocket Guide to Winning the Dating and Marriage Game is an honest, insightful book to help men better themselves, and their households, as they face a new societal outlook on relationships. Authors Zachary Davis and Okeeba Brown present fifteen basic principles to help men succeed in dating and marriage.
Davis, married for almost a decade, and Brown, divorced and back on the dating scene with two daughters at home, realized they were onto something when they began dishing out daily advice to a friend in a troubled marriage heading for divorce. The series of weekly text messages to support their friend, including sayings like; "LOVE HER LIKE YOU LOVE YOUR MAMA, BUT REMEMBER THAT SHE AIN'T YOUR MAMA," laid the framework for the book.
"Through my travels with the Navy, I dated women of many backgrounds and realized, although they were all different, they were actually all the same in regards to their expectations of relationships," says Davis.
Roses and Brass Knuckles cover a range of pitfalls that a man can easily find himself in while dealing with the complications of love. The topics, written from a stand point that all men across cultures can relate to, were gathered from a lifetime of experience with women, spanning a myriad of concepts that will help today's man master his relationship.
"Once I started writing about the do's and don'ts of marriage/dating I found a certain amount of healing and humor in the process," says Brown. "It allowed for me to be creative in a different way. As a poet/painter/photographer/songwriter/performer, I was use to the creative process, but this was different. I found that I could help men master themselves and the dating game by offering my experiences."
Roses and Brass Knuckles: A Man's Pocket Guide to Winning the Dating and Marriage Game is available online at www.amazon.com and www.rosesnbrassknuckles.com. Future releases include "Can't No Dog Worry This P*ssy Cat- A Woman's Guide To Getting A Good Man.....and Keeping Him."
The Truth Will Set You Free
I recently had the pleasure of speaking with the authors and gauging their minds on how this 'black gold', as Okeeba put it, came about. We embarked on a journey of insight, both real and raw, and played a game of word association with topics that loom ever-so-present in the minds of women and men, young and old. In the book, they discuss topics of sex, dating, marriage and love but with a barbershop-esque, humorous and witty approach which also carried over into our conversation.
In divulging a bit of information about myself, I have a bookshelf overflowing with books on self-help for both men and women, relationship guides and spiritual enlightenment but few ring as real, raw and engaging as Roses and Brass Knuckles. In speaking with Okeeba and Zach, it was clear that Okeeba was the one who naturally repelled women who were about games and not serious about life and Zach, although married, would debate humorously with any woman questioning his zeal for love and life; while both shed light on serious matters, such as manhood and the lack of real father figures and leadership, becoming extinct (in a way) in the Black community. These are two guys I'd love to keep in my circle. Let's proceed.
Okeeba and Zach stated their revelations came in their lives when they began to look at women in the sense of quality versus quantity. "Finding a good man or woman is like finding a grain of sugar in a pound of salt. I'm looking for a Grade A woman. Not everyone is cut out to be a good woman", as Okeeba bluntly put it. Zach admittedly said, "Although I am happily married, I admit, I ran across maybe 4 or 5 really good women who really cared and were really down for me but of course you may not be ready for that when you're young minded."
Ignorance Is Bliss
I wondered after reading the book, if Zach and Okeeba could answer one haunting question: "How many men are really actually willing to admit their ignorance when it comes to women and dating?" Surprisingly, Okeeba and Zach revealed, "Some cats get it confused. They don't realize the value in being honest. Lying won't get you what you need anyway neither will playing games." I jot down some notes, for my own personal recollection, as they share more jewels. "Men aren't too open in admitting that they don't know some things about dealing with women or keeping a good woman. Even a married man won't admit this. And you have to think, in today's world, who really had a positive male, like an uncle or a father, around to show them the way."
Okeeba revealed that his mom was instrumental in showing him how to love a woman, while his dad taught him not to take any stuff off of a woman. He says, "Alot of women are conditioned to think Black men aren't (expletive)." That's a very true statement indeed, simply because, if you haven't been raised by the right woman/man, you could be subjected to a lot of negativity in regards to love, sex or marriage. The kind of negativity that's like romantic genocide.
Zach stated, "People don't think guys get hurt but we are taught to put up fronts, just look throughout history. A guy could date a girl and put up a front as if he doesn't care about her UNTIL she goes out with another guy and then he's hurt. Guys are really soft inside." I want to hug him for sharing this because I honestly didn't know this.
They both stated that if they had this book 10 years ago, "it would have been a totally different game." I wholeheartedly agree! So before I go and send a few anonymous copies to some men in need of 'black gold', I will leave you with Zach and Okeeba's responses to the word association game to four topics! Enjoy!
Okeeba NOW: Business, Life Partner vs. THEN: Whatever
Zach NOW: Optional, Selective vs. THEN: Necessity
Okeeba NOW: Potential vs. THEN: Conniving
Zach NOW: Amazing, Necessity vs. THEN: Weakness
Okeeba NOW: Understanding vs. THEN: Dangerous

Court Avoids First Amendment Question in Indecency Case
Count us as a little surprised at the way the Supreme Court's ruling came out in the case over Federal Communications Commission's indecency rules.
At arguments in January, many of the comments from the court's conservative wing focused on the government's role in upholding broadcast television as an island of propriety amid a sea of cable indecency, as Jess Bravin wrote at the time.
And part of the discussion centered on the First Amendment guarantee of freedom of speech: If the FCC were allowed to punish networks for fleeting indecency such as the f-word spoken during a live awards show, would that chill speech?
Solicitor General Donald Verrilli argued that the FCC was "trying to make reasonable accommodations for First Amendment values." Carter Phillips, representing broadcasters, said the court "ought to decide the First Amendment question that's presented here." He said the FCC was going too far.
More than five months later, the opinion comes in. What's the First Amendment ruling? Writes Justice Anthony Kennedy: "[T]he Court … need not address the First Amendment implications of the Commission's indecency policy." And there's little in the opinion about defending propriety, aspiring to a less vulgar culture and other such notions aired at argument.
Instead, Justice Kennedy, writing for the court, says the key point is that the FCC failed to give networks "fair notice prior to the broadcasts in question that fleeting expletives and momentary nudity could be found actionably indecent."
Whether the FCC rules would be constitutional if the agency did give fair notice is a question left for another day/

While we (not so) patiently await the release of the Arrested Development movie, we'll sip our caffeine out of this Arrested Development I'm a Monster Mug ($14), which reminds us of one of our favorite scenes from the short-lived FOX show. In fact, we're thinking that the next rainy Saturday needs to be an Arrested Development marathon. We swear, no matter how many times we watch episodes of that show, we find some subtle cleverness we didn't notice before!

The Fundamentals of Domestic Violence for Lawyers and Custody Litigation Training:
The Fundamentals of Domestic Violence for Lawyers (Day 1) and Custody Litigation Training: Representing Victims of Domestic Violence in Custody Cases (Days 2 - 3) was an attorney-focused track offered by The American Bar Association Commission on Domestic Violence & Sexual Assault, in collaboration with the United States Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women.
October 8, 2014 Workshops
The Fundamentals
with ABA Faculty
This session provides a framework for understanding domestic violence cases and why they require additional skill and training for lawyers. It will present a cultural context to better understand domestic violence and help participants appreciate the many barriers clients face that affect representation. The workshop will also focus on tactics employed by perpetrators and coping mechanisms often utilized by victims.
October 9, 2014 Workshops
Understanding the Impact of Domestic Violence on Children and Parents
with ABA Faculty
An understanding of the impact that exposure to domestic violence has on children and parenting is essential in order to effectively represent your client's interests in custody cases. This workshop explores this issue and provides an introduction to the Institute.
October 10, 2014 Workshops
Obtaining Safe and Effective Visitation Orders
with ABA Faculty
Visitation is cases involving domestic violence are often problematic and can create dangerous situations for clients. In this workshop, participants will identify the full range of possible visitation options in custody cases and the key points of effective visitation arrangements that may be ordered by the court. Participants will discuss how to address their client's safety and that of their children in visitation arrangements. By drafting and arguing for visitation orders, participants will develop the skills needed to increase enforceability by including detail and specificity in proposed orders.
Screening for Domestic Violence
with ABA Faculty
Some clients easily identify as having been abused. Most do not. This session builds upon the previous one by providing tools to assist lawyers in identifying domestic violence cases, eliciting information on the specific power and control tactics the client experiences in order to adequately assess legal remedies. The session also explores the client's privacy and confidentiality concerns and how they may affect representation.
Developing Case Theory
with ABA Faculty
A persuasive and well-planned case theory is the backbone of effective custody litigation. In this workshop, participants will define an effective case theory in a domestic violence case with a custody dispute and discuss how this case theory differs from a domestic violence case without a custody dispute. Participants will discuss factors and standards that judges apply to custody cases involving domestic violence. In a small group exercise, participants will analyze a scenario and identify the most important facts in this case by using the applicable statute to create and effective case theory. Participants will also observe and critique a closing argument demonstration utilizing this case theory.
Use and Integration of Expertise
with ABA Faculty
Finding and utilizing expertise in custody cases with domestic violence, sexual assault, and/or dating violence is critical. Through small group exercises, participants will identify different types of expertise and discuss how expertise fits into case theory. Participants will also discuss how to qualify witnesses and experts and watch a demonstration of this process.
Holistic Legal Response
with ABA Faculty
Attorneys representing clients experiencing domestic violence will need to consider the legal and non-legal impactions of legal actions taken on behalf of the client. In order to provide a holistic legal response, this session will also look at the non-legal needs of clients and how to facilitate services beyond the scope of your representation to help clients obtain control over their lives.
Safety and Autonomy
with ABA Faculty
This session stresses the critical importance of safety as a fundamental and on-going concern for your client, and yourself throughout the course of your representation and how safety concerns drive any legal interventions. This session will also address the importance of working collaboratively with community and systems-based advocates to help facilitate client safety. Lastly, the session emphasizes maintenance of professional and ethical boundaries in representing clients experiencing domestic violence.
Conducting Effective Client Interviews
with ABA Faculty
Effective client interviewing is an essential step in the representation domestic violence victims in custody cases and it presentation unique challenges. In this workshop, participants will observe, participate in, and analyze demonstrations of client interviews, paying particular attention to potential barriers and solutions to effective communication. Participants will discuss successful client interviewing techniques and will engage in a self-analysis of their own client interviews.
Negotiations and Settlements/Closing
with ABA Faculty
Many temporary and final custody and visitation arrangements are reached through negotiation. In this workshop, participants will discuss the differences in the negotiation process when there is opposing counsel and when the batterer acting pro se. Participants will identify when negotiations are no longer an appropriate option in domestic violence cases and how to determine when negotiations have become a continuation of the abuse. Participants will identify common terms in settlements and discuss how those terms may apply differently to victims of domestic violence. In additions, participants will observe and practice negotiating tips and strategies through small and large group exercises.
This project was supported by Grant No. 2011-WT-AX-K093 awarded by the Office on Violence Against Women, U.S. Department of Justice.

According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's WaterSense program, in the span of two television commercial breaks, you could save more than 10,000 gallons of water, which is equivalent to the water used to wash 10 months' worth of laundry.
Finding leaks is easy. To get started, put a few drops of food coloring in the tank to check for silent toilet leaks. Wait 10 minutes before flushing; if color shows up in the bowl, you probably need a new toilet flapper-an easy repair.
While you wait, check your other plumbing fixtures for drips-they may seem small, but all those drops really add up. Next, check your winter water bills. Most families of four use 12,000 gallons of water per month or less in winter. If your bill is showing something higher, you could have a serious leak-inside or out.
Finally, step outside and inspect your garden hoses. Are they damaged or cracked from winter's frost? If you have an inground irrigation system, an irrigation professional certified through a WaterSense labeled program can check for leaks and broken sprinkler heads.
See www.epa.gov/watersense for more information about Fix a Leak Week and a list of certified irrigation partners in your community

"Carroll Community College instructors encouraged David Bryant to practice real-life applications that he found were extremely relevant in the work world."
When David Bryant began taking Continuing Education and Training courses at Carroll Community College (Carroll), he already had a bachelor's degree in Business / Information Systems. He attended Carroll to obtain certifications in Information Systems that would enhance his ability to become employed in the field of Information Technology. Once he completed his course of study as an adult learner at Carroll, he successfully entered the job market through employment in a position that was well-suited to his skill set and related to his degree.
Attempting to break into a new career field created a few challenges for Bryant. He explains that many Information Technology companies wish to hire experienced individuals who have proven track records within the field. Carroll provided Bryant with the resources to complete classes that helped him to enter the computer services area without much difficulty, he says.
Carroll offered hands-on learning, which made his class work more enjoyable and easy to understand.
Bryant believes that Carroll helped him to attain his goals by providing the most up-to-date instruction, which helped to build his confidence to enter the job market. In addition, Carroll instructors encouraged him to practice real-life applications that he found were extremely relevant in the work world.
"Ultimately, Carroll has helped me to grow into a confident leader and young adult."
Nineteen-year-old Karlie Pickett is a General Studies major at Carroll Community College (Carroll) in Westminster, Maryland. She plans to graduate in spring, 2013 and intends to transfer to a four-year university to study Communications and Marketing.
Pickett has many creative talents and plans to put them to use as a graphic designer one day. She aspires to work for a magazine to coordinate magazine layouts, photo editing and logo design.
Pickett says the support which Carroll provides her is a major reason for her success as a student. "The Student Life Office has been especially helpful to me," said Karlie. "The staff has encouraged me to pursue my short and long-term goals, to keep on track with my classes, and to pursue the transfer process seamlessly," said Pickett, who is a student worker in the Student Life Office.
Pickett said that when she first attended Carroll, she did not envision herself as a leader. "Ultimately, Carroll helped me to realize that I can grow into a self-secure leader of other students. I am completing the Leadership Challenge program and have grown into a confident young adult, as a result."

Guidelines for Handling & Restraint
Most animals have a natural tendency to avoid being handled, so our ability to work with them successfully depends upon our skill and experience in capturing and restraining them. Animal scratches or bites can have serious consequences, so please call the veterinary technical staff at 684-2797 before handling laboratory animal species that may be unfamiliar to you.
Several important considerations for the handling and restraint of specific laboratory animals include:
1. All laboratory animals should be carried and restrained by properly supporting their entire body weight. A
struggling, improperly restrained rabbit is especially prone to fracturing its spinal column. These animals must be euthanized.
2. Small rodents may be lifted by grasping near the base of the tail. Gerbils should only be held by the tail near
its base. The skin near the tip of the tail is fragile and may slip off.
3. Please seek instruction from the DLAR veterinary staff before handling uncooperative dogs or cats.
4. Nonhuman primates cannot be handled or restrained without consultation with the DLAR veterinary staff.
5. The DLAR veterinary technical staff will assist you with information and instruction for the use of mechanical
restraint devices.

Definition of Running Mate
What is a "running mate"? What is the definition of the term "running mate"?
As it relates to the US Presidential election, a "running mate" is the person who is the presidential nominee's candidate for Vice President.
For instance, Sarah Palin was John McCain's "running mate" in the 2008 US Presidential election, as Palin was McCain's choice for Vice President, should he have beaten Barack Obama. On the other hand, Joe Biden was Barack Obama's running mate in the 2008 US Presidential election and became Vice President in January of 2009.
US Presidential candidates and their teams will carefully evaluate potential "running mates", as a "running mate" can make or break a Presidential campaign. Many campaigns will choose a running mate who is pretty much the polar opposite of the Presidential candidate - for instance, the McCain campaign chose Sarah Palin because she was thought to be young and dynamic, while McCain was the grizzled veteran who would appeal to older voters. The plan didn't work, however, as Barack Obama and Joe Biden won the election.
In some cases, a running mate will go on to become a Presidential candidate themselves. For instance, Al Gore served as Bill Clinton's Vice President for eight years, and then ran for President himself in 2000 (where he eventually lost to George W. Bush).

SULLIVAN TWP. — Monday wasn't a perfect day, but it was a day Black River softball pitcher Dagmar Smith will never forget.
The four-year starter broke the Medina County record for career strikeouts by fanning eight in a 3-1 Patriot Athletic Conference Stars Division loss to Wellington.
The 5-foot-8, 116-pound Smith, already a three-time All-Gazette pick, now has 757 strikeouts, three more than 2006 Brunswick graduate Amanda Macenko.
"That was a big milestone, that's for sure," said the 17-year-old, who broke into tears on several occasions upon receiving postgame congratulations. "It definitely feels good. I've been working for four years for this."
Smith (8-8), who has a scholarship to continue her career at Division II Ursuline College, would have loved to have led the Pirates (10-9, 6-5) to victory on her record-setting day, but there were still plenty of smiles after she gave up a three-run home run in the top of the first to Wellington (7-14, 5-7) catcher Regan Moitoret.
"Regan is an amazing hitter," Smith said. "I've known her since we were little kids. I threw the wrong pitch in the wrong place. It was a curveball that didn't curve."
Batting third after Sami Cucuzza led off the game with a walk and Maddie Novotny reached on an error on her sacrifice bunt, Moitoret blasted her friend's non-curving curveball over the 210-foot marker in center field.
Moitoret, a senior who now has five home runs, was among the many people who congratulated Smith after the game, approaching her behind the Black River dugout with a huge smile while saying, "Do you still love me?"
The two then hugged and posed for a number of pictures, but arguably the most emotional hug of the day took place moments earlier.
Former Black River coach Merle Simmons, whose supplemental contract was not renewed after he led the Pirates to the North Ridgeville Division III District final in Smith's sophomore year and the Massillon Regional final last year, showed up after the game and presented his former star pitcher with flowers.
"It's awesome to have him here," Smith said. "He's still one of my favorite coaches of all-time. It was very special to have him here."
Smith also received a huge hug from former catcher Taylor Goff, had a Gatorade bucket of ice dumped on her in the Pirates' postgame huddle and was given a congratulatory card signed by current coaches and teammates.
The right-hander broke Macenko's record with her sixth strikeout, fanning No. 7 hitter Morgan Tandarich on a 1-2 changeup just off the plate to start the seventh.
The game was stopped briefly at that point, with the ball being taken out of play so Smith could keep it. Black River athletic director Bruce Lorincz and first-year coach Lauren Toth publicly congratulated Smith, whose teammates surrounded her in the circle during the ceremony, which also featured several loud cheers from Wellington players, including Moitoret.
"A lot of those (strikeouts) are ours," Dukes coach Tim Wulfhoop said. "She's one of the best. She commands all her pitches and never gives you anything."
Though Black River is in Ashland County's Sullivan Township, where Smith lives, The Gazette has always included athletes from the school in its Medina County records.
Lorincz said the school draws approximately 45 percent of its students from Medina County, 45 percent from Ashland County and 10 percent from Lorain County. Lorincz also said local legend has it that the Ashland-Medina county line runs through the east end zone of the football field, which a Google map showed could be true.
For her part, the soft-spoken Smith wasn't concerned about county lines, where he fellow students lived or even career records, though she was thrilled to set one.
"I tried to put it out of my mind before the game, but that wasn't easy," she said. "I'm glad I was able to break it, so now we can get on with the rest of our season and try to finish strong."
After giving up four hits over the first 2⅓ innings, Smith mixed her fastball, curveball, rise, drop and change to retire the last 14 batters she faced. She recorded seven of her strikeouts in that span, including five of the last six batters she faced.
"I'm so proud of her," Toth said. "I couldn't think of a person who deserves this record more. She worked extremely hard and she's a great pitcher and a great person.
"She made one mistake to their best hitter. That's going to happen to pitchers sometimes. Every once in a while, you're going to hang one and it's going to get hit. But she came back hard."
Smith, who has 180 strikeouts this season, had 188 as a freshman, 245 as a sophomore and 144 as a junior, when she missed 12 games with a lower back injury but came back to lead the Pirates to the regional final for the first time in school history.
She had just one strikeout through three innings and only three through five against Wellington, but tied Macenko's mark by fanning cleanup hitter Erin Reisenger and No. 5 batter Alli Rangel to start the sixth. Smith then wasted no time breaking the record in the seventh before adding two more K's for good measure.
"It would have definitely been nice if we could have won, but it was still a good game," she said. "I'm proud of my teammates."
Black River's starting lineup against the Dukes included three freshmen and a sophomore — plus a left-handed throwing shortstop — and its youth and inexperience were on display on several occasions.
The Pirates had runners on first and second and no outs in the sixth when Megan Scott was correctly called out on an infield fly rule, but the runner on second was doubled up after wandering off the bag on the routine popup.
Black River also had a batter attempt to lay down a sacrifice bunt because she thought she had been given that sign on a 3-0 count, then later failed to force out a Wellington runner at second because no one was covering the bag.
"We're making progress," Toth said, "but sometimes our youth shines through."
So, too, does Smith's greatness, though on this day Wellington's Rangel (6-14) was just as good, giving up four hits, a walk and one earned run while fanning six.
When Rangel needed some good fortune, she got that, too. With the Pirates still having a runner on after hitting into the double play via the infield fly rule, Danielle Sexton's grounder down the third-base line bounced off Novotny and right to shortstop Reisenger, who ended the inning with a 5-6-3 putout.
"We knew it was going to be like this coming into the year," Smith said of her team's struggles. "It's a rebuilding year. I'm just trying to leave something behind for them to build on."

Hamburgers are wonderful. With all of the barbequing that goes on during this time of year, thoughts of the perfect hamburger begin to inspire all kinds of variations. There are Veggie Burgers, Chicken Burgers, Turkey Burgers, Salmon Burgers, Black Bean Burgers, Jalapeno Burgers, Asian Burgers and many more creative concoctions over which to salivate.
Sometimes, Hamburgers cause us to think back to childhood, when dads all over America thrill their kids by offering freshly made hamburgers, hot off of their barbeque grills. One remembers the enticing aroma wafting from back yards everywhere. Just the mere thought of the smoke in the air brings back that old feeling of a much simpler time. A time when the worst thing would be having to wait for Mom to bring out the condiments before trying to open our mouths wide enough to get a full bite.
In an attempt to satisfy the intense craving for a real, fresh Hamburger without actually having to fire up that back yard grill, sometimes, here in Los Angeles, we head out to our favorite Hamburger restaurant. Some people will find satisfaction from a fast food Hamburger, and others go back to their good, old favorite Hamburger places. Some of these places have actually become famous institutions. The Apple Pan is one such place. It has been serving Hickory Burgers and Steak Burgers for more than five generations. https://foursquare.com/v/the-apple-pan/3fd66200f964a520a5ee1ee3. Another old favorite is Bob's Big Boyhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob's_Big_Boy. Order a Combo here, and you get a fantastic Hamburger with special, secret sauce, an order of freshly made French Fries, and a small salad with your choice of dressing.
There are some other, more modern restaurants that have established themselves sufficiently to have become destinations for finding good Hamburgers like Johnny Rockets www.johnnyrockets.com/, or even Hamburger Heaven http://www.urbanspoon.com/r/5/66751/restaurant/West-Hollywood/Hamburger-Haven-LA. There are, in fact, hundreds of really good Hamburger restaurants here in Los Angeles.
One of the very best Hamburgers is one that has been created with so much love and care, that the friends who have been lucky enough to have one request it over and over again. Here is one such Hamburger:
Denise's Stuffed Burgers
(Serves Four)
2 Lb. ground Beef (the more fat content, the better), formed into eight thin patties
2 large, Beefsteak Tomatoes, sliced into 4 thick slices
4 Garlic Cloves, finely chopped
4 Tbsp. Cilantro (leaves only), finely chopped
4 Tbsp. Sliced, pickled Jalapeno peppers, finely chopped
4 Large Onion Hamburger Buns
1 Tbsp. Canola oil
4 Tbsp. Chipotle Mayonnaise (see recipe below)
Chipotle Mayonnaise
1 Tbsp. (or more or less to taste) pureed, canned Chipotle Peppers (in Adobo Sauce)
4 Tbsp. Mayonnaise
Combine and taste.
Place four beef patties on work surface. Place one thick slice of tomato on top of each patty. Put a tablespoon of chopped garlic, cilantro and jalapeno on top of each tomato slice. Put one of the remaining beef patties on top of each of the burgers, and carefully pinch the edges together to seal. Place Canola oil in sauté pan and heat. Gently, place the stuffed patties into the hot oil and cook on each side for about three minutes. Toast the onion rolls. Slather each roll with a tablespoon of the Chipotle Mayonnaise. Serve and enjoy.

For many mothers in Alberta, c-sections are commonplace and a regular occurrence. While the numbers of c-sections are growing steadily, there are many parents out there who have yet to experience it at all. About 1 in 5 mothers delivering will have a c-section procedure. Knowledge is key when approaching the subject of having a caesarean as a delivery option. While c-sections can be planned ahead of time, about 6% of caesarean deliveries are emergency procedures due to complications during pregnancy or the labour process.
The amount of women who are electing to have a caesarean procedure without any previous complications is rising steadily. This decision should not be taking lightly and the mother should be informed of all the risks and complications associated with having an elective surgery that is not needed. Knowing what happens before, during and after the c-section procedure is important for anyone who is thinking about having one or is at risk for having surgery.
There are many different resources online that you can find information about c-sections and why they may or may not be a choice for you. Be sure to let your delivery wishes known to your doctor and keep the communication open so that you are more prepared when the time comes for your baby's delivery time.

Brain surgeons throughout Europe have told Michael Schumacher's wife Corinne, and brother Ralph, that there is little hope that the legendary racer has very little (if any) chance of recovery. The family has been concerned over the fact that French doctors at the Grenoble hospital where he has been treated since his horrific skiing accident on December 29, 2013, have almost no hope that he will ever recover, and will remain in a "vegetative" states for the remainder of his life.
According to a report in Britain's Daily Telegraph, "experts say that artificial comas usually last for up to three weeks and that Schumacher has shown very little progress which dims chances of a recovery."
Schumacher, 45. was injured when he crashed and hit his head on a boulder while skiing with his son and friends in the Alpine resort of Meribel. Although he was wearing a helmet at the time, the impact was so severe that it broke in two.
In the meantime, The Bahrain International Circuit has named a corner of the track after Schumacher in honor of his many achievements in Formula 1, "as well as his interest in the BIC circuit design.

I created an excel spread sheet that fits exactly on my screen and saved it in a shared drive so my team mates can access it. It has some macros and other sheets on the right side of the main spreadsheet. The macros are used to jump from one spreadsheet to another.
When my team mate loaded the same spreadsheet, the spread sheet does not fit their screen and when I jump to the next spredsheet using the same coordinate, that is f5 AE1 for example, the spreadsheet does not fit exactly on the screen (but it does on my computer).
Also, the buttons with macros do not work. What do I have to do in order to make it work in their computer?

Java U Cafe predominately is a coffee chain located in Montreal (and some others located in Dubai, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, and Qatar – talk about market diversity!) I stumbled upon this coffee shop when I went to Montreal for a conference and had time to kill. Famished from being shopped-out on Saint-Catherine's and feeling a little low on caffeine.
This modern looking coffee shop offers more than your regular cuppa joe. Classic and specialty coffee, Smoothies and their anti-oxidant versions called smoothieceuticals ? What a gimmicky name! I could have sworn I saw wines sold; but I wonder if my memory is playing tricks on me! There are daily specials on breakfast, paninis, salads and more. Tri-U is a sandwich, salad, or soup combo paired with coffee for less than 10 bux. A pretty good deal and hard to get in Vancouver!
The particular location I went to had 2 stories with tables upstairs overlooking the bar area.
I read over the internet that a lot of people were bashing the service. Although though not superb (common' you weren't looking for a Michelin Star grade were you?) it was not terrible. I had no problems with it at least.
Cuisine: Coffee Shop, Cafe Price/Entrée: $5-10 Out of 5… (1: Don't bother —> 5: Excellent) Food: 3 Service: 2.5 Ambiance: 3 Overall: 3
Greek Salad
Freshly diced cucumbers, tomatoes, onions and feta cheese. Feta was grainy and deliciously pungent.
Americano Espresso
Bold. Not very acidic. Not bad overall.
I wish I had read upon this earlier. But according to their website Montreal Gazette Charlie Fidelman described their Café Au Lait as "tantalizingly fresh, appetizingly thick and rich-looking, rich coffee-milk mix that would be as good ice cold." and "A seriously good cafe au lait," says Gazette reporter Julian Armstrong. I guess I will have to give this place a try if I ever go back.
But then again, there are so many more independent cafes I'd rather try…

Woody Herman: Laura

The Essence of Woody Herman (Legacy/Columbia)
Woody Herman (clarinet, also sax, vocals), Bill Harris (trombone), Marjorie Hyams (vibes), Skippy DeSair (baritone sax),
Sonny Berman, Charlie Frankhauser, Pete Candoli, Ray Wetzel, Carl Warwick (trumpets), Ed Kiefer, Ralph Pfeffner (trombones), Sam Marowitz, John LaPorta (alto saxes), Flip Phillips, Pete Mondello (tenor saxes), Ralph Burns (piano), Billy Bauer (guitar), Chubby Jackson (bass), Dave Tough (drums).
Composed by Johnny Mercer & David Raksin. Arranged by Ralph Burns.
Recorded: New York, February 19, 1945
Rating: 98/100 (learn more)
This track was the first recording made for the first session in Herman's contract for Columbia Records. Herman had led a pretty good band for several years that played major venues and made some good recordings on Decca, but by 1943 he was beginning to shift direction to music that was more modern and exciting. With the hiring of Chubby Jackson, Herman had a new bassist who recommended excellent other young musicians; from Charlie Barnet's band alone came pianist/arranger Ralph Burns, vocalist Frances Wayne and trumpeter/arranger Neal Hefti. Herman found Bill Harris, who'd been fired by Benny Goodman for poor music reading. Dave Tough was also a Herman choice. Older than the other musicians and active since the '20s, he proved the biggest surprise with his modern, subtle style, which the musicians loved. A regular radio program for Old Gold cigarettes in 1944 was good exposure for Herman's new direction, and by the time his Columbia contract began, the musicians were roaring.
However, they also played Ralph Burns-styled ballads. This theme from the movie of the same name was a major hit for Herman, and the recording has everything: a great song, wonderful vocal by the leader (who also introduces the theme on alto sax), an excellent, romantic arrangement by Burns, gorgeous playing by the individual sections and the entire band, a pretty transition by vibist Marjorie Hyams, and then a kicking solo by Harris based on the melody. Also note baritone saxophonist Skippy DeSair's anchoring of the entire band: his sound rings through the entire ensemble at some points in the recording.
This track is a sensational beginning to a distinguished series of recordings by one of the most popular big bands of all time.

Reviews for Tortellini Appetizers
"For something completely different and a lot of comments - make this - good job"
"These were very delicious. I marinated the tortellini most of the day and the flavor was awesome!"
"Excellent! I bring these to every picnic or potluck I go to and always get rave reviews!"
"Cute, but very hard to roll up the cheese without it folding and breaking. I ended up rolling it inside the salami; that worked better - the salami holds it together. And the tortellini didn't pick up much flavor from the dressing, and I had it marinating for 24 hours! All in all, cute but too much trouble. Cut up the salami and cheese and toss all the ingredients w/dressing and make a tortellini salad!"
"I have made something very similar to this several times. To add an extra kick, use green olives stuffed with jalapenos. You can mix up the variety of olives and use blue cheese or almond stuffed ones as well."
