Cheddar-Stuffed Mini Meatloaves with Chipotle Glaze
Individual meatloaves not only take the guesswork out of portion size, they cook quicker than a large loaf. Look for ground chipotle in the spice section of the market—it gives the glaze a hit of smoke and spice. Serve with roasted broccoli and brown rice tossed with cilantro.Yield: 4 servings
Active Time: 20
Total Time: 45
- 1 pound lean (90% or leaner) ground beef
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1/3 cup fine, dry, whole-wheat breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 6 tablespoons ketchup, preferably no-salt-added
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 1/2 cup shredded extra-sharp Cheddar cheese
- 1/8 teaspoon ground chipotle pepper
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat four 8- to 12-ounce small baking dishes, such as mini loaf pans, with cooking spray and place on a rimmed baking sheet. (Alternatively, make freeform meatloaves and bake directly on the baking sheet.)
- Combine beef, onion, breadcrumbs, egg, 2 tablespoons ketchup, chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper in a bowl; mix well. Divide the mixture into 4 even portions and place in the prepared baking dishes. Make a 1 1/2-inch-deep indentation with your finger down the length of each meatloaf. Stuff each with 2 tablespoons cheese and pinch the edges closed to seal.
- Combine the remaining 4 tablespoons ketchup and chipotle in a bowl; spread over each loaf.
- Transfer the baking sheet to the oven. Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of a loaf registers 165°F, 20 to 30 minutes.
Tips & Notes
- Make Ahead Tip: Equipment: 4 mini loaf pans or a baking sheet
- Cut Down on Dishes: A rimmed baking sheet is great for everything from roasting to catching accidental drips and spills. For effortless cleanup and to keep your baking sheets in tip-top shape, line them with a layer of foil before each use.

The published study would have slipped by me unnoticed if it hadn't been for the college women discussing it at an airport coffee shop. I was out of town last weekend and had passed on perusing the local morning paper. But after eavesdropping on these giggling women, and feeling a bit curious, I grabbed a copy of the local daily and read the syndicated story on the front page of the lifestyle section:
Women Are Happiest at Age of 28, Study Finds
Researchers have discovered that women feel most confident and happy with their work, their relationships, and their body shape at the age of 28. It is also the period in life when they enjoy the best sex—but the happiness is relatively short-lived. By the time they turn 30 they start worrying about growing old, developing gray hair and wrinkles, and they report less satisfaction in their relationships and career.
I was back in the Twin Cities early that evening and, strangely, still thinking about that study. It saddened me to think women could peak in their contentment so early in life, and I decided to make some calls to various female friends, all older than 30. I asked if they believed that the study's conclusion described their own experience.
I was stunned to hear each one reply, "Damn straight."
Denise said she felt things "leveling off" shortly after her 28th birthday. For several months she felt a strange stagnation that had not been there previously. Throughout her 20s, each day had brought with it a progressively sunnier outlook, a greater belief in her own abilities, a stronger confidence in her beauty, and a richer understanding of her role on Earth and the meaning of her life. But following her 28th birthday, the days abruptly stopped improving. It's not that they got worse right away, she said, it's that they no longer got better. That was a big red flag.
Renee reported that it was on her 29th birthday that she first felt a shift in her disposition. She spotted the beginning of a permanent smile line on her skin—skin that had previously been smooth and unblemished. She viewed herself naked in the mirror and noticed one breast was "slightly less perky than the other," as if asleep. It was as if the beginnings of a mild mammary depression were setting in, she said, and she thought that if something wasn't done the contagious despondency could leap to the other breast as well. She began to panic.
Connie told me that 29 was just the start. By 35 all hell was breaking loose. She was viewing men as shallow and two-dimensional, creatures interested in sex, not companionship; lust, not love. She found her boss suddenly less enthusiastic about her performance at work and less willing to consider her advancement in the company. By 39, she said, she was spending all of her disposable income on a life coach and a therapist. She envied the women of the 1300s whose lifespan never reached 39.
Carla said the 30s were rough, but the 40s were an unending parade of savage misery, with disease, divorce, and decay leading the way. By the time 50 rolled around, no friend had the heart to deliver so much as a Hallmark card with a whimsical witticism on aging. On the night before her 50th birthday party she dreamed all the guests arrived in hearses, with "Happy Birthday" sung as a mournful dirge, while neighbors opened a hole in the ground with a backhoe.
Hannah said, "Fifty was brutal, mean, and merciless, but nothing compared to what lay ahead." Turning 60, she said, was akin to "being water-boarded every waking hour of the day." When she looked in the mirror she saw little more than a rotting science museum mummy. She said learning she was adopted, and that her biological parents had dumped her in a Greyhound bus depot toilet, wasn't nearly as painful as knowing she had 19 more years before reaching the normal life expectancy for women.
Today she looks back wistfully at photos of herself from her 28th year, when life was all promise and possibility and her hair resembled the tresses of a L'Oreal commercial. She remembered almost being hit by a bus at 29 and wished she had not been so quick to leap out of the way.
She warned women in their 20s not to laugh at this study, as the women did in that airport coffee shop.
"Stop the giggling, you ninnies," she says. "Prepare for your Death March."

|Men's hoops returns home
MOSCOW, Idaho – The Idaho men's basketball team will be at home on Saturday (Nov. 16) when it hosts Northwest Nazarene in Moscow, where it will play just two more games before Christmas. The Vandals and Crusaders tipoff at 7 p.m. in Memorial Gym.
Idaho and NNU each enter Saturday's game with 1-1 records on the young season. The Vandals are coming off a loss at Oklahoma, where they opened the Coaches vs. Cancer Classic, while the Crusaders beat Willamette in their last outing.
Idaho senior Stephen Madison is one of two Western Athletic Conference players averaging a double-double on the season, as he enters Saturday with a 14.0 scoring average to go along with 10.5 rebounds per game. Senior transfer Glen Dean is Idaho's leading scorer through two games with 14.5 points per game.
The Crusaders, who compete in NCAA Division II and the Great Northwest Athletic Conference, are led by 14.5 points and 9.5 rebounds per game from Kevin Rima. Michael Loomis adds 13.5 points and 3.0 rebounds per game and Mario Donaldson averages 9.5 points, 6.5 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game.
Saturday will be the second all-time meeting between the two schools. Idaho beat NNU 94-55 in December of 1980 en route to back-to-back Big Sky championships.
The Vandals will head to Portland to wrap up the Coaches vs. Cancer Classic Nov. 21-23 where they will face Portland, North Texas and Columbia. Beginning with its trip to Portland, Idaho will play nine of its next 10 games outside of Moscow, including two games at CenturyLink Arena in Boise, Idaho against Boise State (Nov. 27) and Idaho State (Dec. 20). The lone exception to Idaho's busy travel schedule is a date with border rival Washington State in the Cowan Spectrum on Dec. 7.

We follow the activity of a panel of bloggers over more than a year and investigate the extent to which initiating a relation brings about its reciprocation. We adapt a standard capital investment model to study how reciprocation affects the build-up of the individual social capital of bloggers, as measured by their links and interactions with others. This allows us to measure the role of content production and relationship building in the dynamics of online social networks and to distinguish between the social networking and media aspects of blogging. jportal_jpjournal_00000016 2012-06-22T12:07:38.728Z 2012-06-20T12:57:45.262Z

Having celebrated its 25th anniversary last year, Who Framed Roger Rabbit is still one of the most celebrated films of all time. Not only a remarkable, ground-breaking achievement in filmmaking, but an unforgettable benchmark in cinema, Roger Rabbit still touches audiences of all ages, making it relevant still after two-and-a-half decades.
It was this fact, among others, that were discussed in great detail during the panel entitled "Why Who Framed Roger Rabbit is One of the Greatest Noir Films Ever Made". Along with Big Shiny Robot's Bryan Young and Granite Flats sound mixer Michaela Ball, moderator Jeff Vice (Cinephiled.com) discussed the many virtues of the film.
"It has all the makings of a great film noir," Vice said. "It has the flawed hero in Eddie Valiant, the femme fatale in Jessica Rabbit, and a Dashell Hammond-like plot."
"Even now, I trip over my words trying to explain how amazing Roger Rabbit is," Young enthusiastically confessed. "For animators, this is sort of a gateway drug for them in its filming techniques, and it was my first foray in film noir, opening the doors to films like Chinatown and Double Indemnity."
The panelists weren't afraid to talk about Gary Wolf's original novel Who Censored Roger Rabbit, which the movie was very loosely based upon.
"With any [novel] adaptation," Ball explained, "obviously there are going to be things that the movie is not going to include, so the filmmakers made the best movie they could at the time."
"And let's think of it this way," Vice added, "had Roger Rabbit been closer to the book, we would probably not be here talking about this movie. It's possible it wouldn't have been as compelling a film."
To the surprise of everyone attending the panel, Charles Fleischer, who had voiced Roger Rabbit, Benny the Cab and weasels Greasy and Psycho in the film, arrived halfway through to give behind-the-scenes stories and first-hand info about the film. Expounding on the genius of director Robert Zemeckis and the sheer enjoyment of the production, Fleischer was a firecracker of energy while discussing the film.
"I enjoyed the beginning, middle, and end of it," Fleischer said when asked about his favorite part of production. "I was there on the set everyday and enjoyed every minute of it."
While there are only rumors circulating around it, Fleischer was jovial and glib in his responses about if he would return for a sequel if it ever happened.
"Of course not!" Fleischer said in mocking derision. "Why would I want to do something that is fun that would give me money and become beloved by audiences around the globe?"
Fleischer then got serious and confirmed that there is no current truth to the rumors.
"Right now," he explained, "that's all they are. Rumors. I would love for it to happen, but it obviously wouldn't happen for some time now. It's about as likely as an E.T. 2."
For now, Charles Fleischer will be appearing at his own panel on Friday, April 18 (11:00 AM MST) in Room 355 at the Salt Palace, and will be signing autographs at his booth throughout FanX.

What are the benefits, if any, to the diet, physical conditioning and body-engineering typically associated with sumo? Can an individual intentionally build large amounts of fat in a way that could be considered responsible, healthy, and useful outside of this sport? What are the limits to this?
Sign up

First, for those unfamiliar with the Sumo wrestler's diet, you can get a rough idea in this article. A main staple of the diet is chanko-nabe. A couple quick points from the first article:
To say the diet is "healthy" would be wrong. However, it isn't as bad as it could be. Another article sites that the majority of the fat in a sumo wrestler is subcutaneous fat, and as such is less of a health risk. Quote follows:
At first glance, it looks like the two articles contradict each other. However, understand that there are differences among individuals, and some are more prone to diabetes vs. heart attack, etc. Any time you have an excess of fat, your body has to work harder to move. Adding weight too fast will cause your heart to not be able to keep up with the new demands of a heavier frame.
To answer your questions more directly:
In sumo wrestling, more mass usually means more of an advantage in the ring. The number of applications where the person having high mass being beneficial is very limited. Another place I can think of where high mass can help is with power lifting, but if you gain too much mass your body proportions will limit your overall total.
I can agree that if you are going to have the mass of a sumo wrestler, the way they go about doing it is probably the best and most responsible approach. That said, even if the amount of visceral fat is low, having large mass can be harmful in its own rite. While hardly a sumo diet, the cautionary tale of C.T. Fletcher highlights the danger of increasing your mass too much.

Keeping up with the Digital Revolution in the Language Classroom: 4 Skills meet 21st Century Skills
Adaptive Hardware | Display Hardware | Recording | Listening | Storage
One important tool in using the internet in class is to have an LCD projector. To connect a laptop to a projector...
find the port on the side or back of your computer that looks like this:
You should now see the image on both the computer and the screen. This
assumes that the projector is turned on and you've taken off the lens cap.
You may need to adjust the focus on the projector, depending on the distance
from the screen. There is a menu button on the top of the projector, usually,
which allows you to change the way the projection looks on the screen; making
it bigger or smaller, angled, etc.
Other tools that come in handy are:
A digital audio recorder - this can be a stand-alone recorder or an attachment to an iPod. Read reviews of three brands of iPod Microphones
a Flash drive for carrying files from one place to another. Amazon has a 1GB one for 10.99, a ridiculously low price. Locally, MicroCenter is giving away 2 GB models with a mailed postcard
For more storage, use an online file storage such as Gspace, or buy an external hard drive.
Learning Independence through Computers (LINC ) is an organization with local chapters that provides resources for people who need Adaptive technologies. They have an intro to the types of technologies here
Touch Screens
Alternative Keyboards as Mice
Glidepoint or Touchpad
Access Utilities
Electronic Pointing Devices
Pointing and Typing Aids
The World Expo on Disabilities will be held in DC in November. You can see the above technologies at the Expo with a pass costing 5 or 10 dollars, by registering online here

Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (NYSE:WMT) reputation management chief to depart
Northern, WI 03/10/2013 (avauncer) –Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (NYSE:WMT)'s reputation management chief will bid adieu to the services of the company, disclosed in a memo yesterday.
Executive Vice President of Corporate Affairs Leslie A. Dach, 58, has been taking care of key activities like public policy and corporate communications. Wal-Mart will have to look for a suitable replacement, said in a memo addressed to employees by CEO Mike Duke. The announcement could be proved critical as it has come at a time when US regulators are still probing bribery allegations in company's Mexico operations.
Dach, once a Democratic strategist who visits the company's Bentonville office on a weekly basis, has told Duke that this is the 'right time' to go, said in the memo.
Many observers including Patricia Edwards, then a money manager at Wentworth, Hauser & Violich, at the time of Dach's appointment had said that he would help Wal-Mart boost its image.
Prior to joining Wal-Mart Stores, Dach served in senior positions during Democratic presidential campaigns and supervised chores of the Clinton administration, as stated in his bio page on Wal-Mart's website.
"Leslie has played a pivotal role in helping us understand the broader role Wal-Mart can play in meeting the major challenges facing society today, and social goals are now an integral part of how we run our business," Duke stated in the memo. He has highlighted Dach's contribution in the areas of nutrition and economic empowerment of women.
Dach's is the second senior-level exit after Tom Mars, executive vice president and chief administrative officer, to be announced in few weeks.
Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (NYSE:WMT) stock was up 0.25% to close at $73.03DISCLAIMER: This content is neither an offer nor recommendation to buy or sell any security.

Beware scammers pretending to be from the IRS.
If you receive an unsolicited call or e-mail from the Internal Revenue Service, watch out. You're not talking to Uncle Sam.
The IRS recently issued a warning about identity theft schemes using the agency's name.
Since 2006, the Internet Crime Complaint Center has received more than 200 complaints about phishing schemes using the bureau as bait. This year scammers are using new twists on old tricks, including personalized e-mail salutations, live phone calls and the promise of tax rebates, to dupe consumers into divulging sensitive information.
Story continues below ...
Take care not to fall for the following cons:
1. Rebate phone calls
How it works: The IRS reports that a new scam similar to the refund e-mails that have circulated for years involves phone calls from callers posing as IRS employees. These callers tell potential victims they are eligible to receive a rebate for filing their taxes early. Phony IRS representatives ask for the consumers' bank account information, supposedly for direct deposit. Upon refusal, they will deny the rebate.
IRS spokeswoman Michelle Lamishaw says that scammers like to use current events for their purposes. In this case, fraudsters are using the rebate legislation recently passed by Congress as a lure.
Hang up on anyone calling about tax rebates. Checks will go out starting in May, and consumers will receive letters from the IRS explaining the rebates, not phone calls.
"In any case, the IRS would not call them for bank account numbers or credit card numbers," Lamishaw says. Those who choose to have money direct deposited must include their bank account information on their tax return.

The festive season is barely a month away in South Africa and shopping malls have already started getting ready for the festive rush. You would of course also have noticed a few early Christmas shows on some of South Africa's DSTV channels.
To help you plan your celebrations for this year's season, here's two scrumptious South African Christmas cake recipes. One with booze, and one without...
South African Christmas Fruit Cake (contains alcohol)
This is a traditional fruit cake that doesn't take forever to make! It's an easy recipe with a delicious result.
250g fruit cake mix
50g mixed citrus peel
50g halved red glace cherries
50g flaked almonds
100g butter
125ml orange juice
5ml brandy essence
100g brown sugar
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1/2 tsp mixed spice
1 extra large egg
1/4 cup sherry
1/4 cup milk
100g cake flour
Preheat the oven to 180?C and line a 15cm x 7cm deep cake tin with wax paper.
In a large pot, combine the fruit cake mix, citrus peel, cherries, almonds, butter, orange juice, brandy essence, sugar, bicarb and mixed spice. Mix together well and bring to the boil. Reduce heat and allow to simmer for approximately 5 minutes, stirring continuously.
Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
Beat the egg with the sherry and milk and then fold the flour into the egg mixture.
Add the fruit mixture and mix well to combine.
Spoon into the cake tin and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the end of a metal or wooden skewer comes out clean when inserted into the middle of the cake.
Decorate as desired.
(We used icing sugar, walnuts, pecan nuts and whole cherries to decorate)
Light Summer Fruit Cake (non alcoholic)
This is a light fruit cake – not dark and heavy like traditional fruit cakes but still wonderfully delicious and a perfect accompaniment for any Christmas occasion.
2 eggs
2 cups flour
¾ cup brown sugar
1 ½ tsp baking powder
½ cup vegetable oil
½ cup milk
½ cup cherries
½ cup dried cranberries
½ cup raisins
½ cup sultanas
¾ cup pecan nuts
Preheat the oven to 150°C
Beat the eggs for 1-2 minutes
Add the oil, sugar, milk and sifted dry ingredients and mix well until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Now add the fruit and nuts and stir through until mixed evenly throughout the mixture.
Bake in a loaf tin (greased and lined with wax paper) for 1hour 45 minutes at 150°C.

Any chance Burnett is burned too?
This is the ol Left Hander rounding third and heading for home.
And really, even though it was raining, it was pretty brief. About a 15 minute shower. They should've obviously delayed the game or at least used an emergency starter if they had to, but the delay *shouldn't* be too insanely long.
The lightning is probably the real problem at the moment, as somebody mentioned.
The concourse is packed as they asked all fans to leave the upper deck because of the storm:
And it's ladies night!
Hello, ladies!
Mark Sheldon is already talking down to fans who are asking why they started the game on time and burned Latos.
They're projecting 5:30 resumption.
They said it could even be before 5:30. As soon as Burnett is warmed up they will start
Trent Rosencrans sent a tweet that Latos is streching in the dugout. So it looks like he will try to continue
So, what are some thoughts and predictions here? Should the Reds stick with Latos? Will they?
(This is all presuming the game actually resumes at 5:30.)
Ken rosenthal just reported the reds are one of the teams inquiring on Michael young

Irena Sendler died of pneumonia May 12, 2008. She was a most remarkable woman. Unfortunately, few people knew of her.
During WWII, Irena got permission from the Nazis to work in the Warsaw ghetto as a plumbing and sewer specialist. She had an ulterior motive. Irena smuggled Jewish infants out in the bottom of the tool box she carried. She also carried a burlap sack in the back of her truck, for larger children.
Irena kept a dog in the back of her truck that she trained to bark when the Nazi soldiers let her in and out of the ghetto. The soldiers, of course, wanted nothing to do with the dog and the barking covered the children's noises.
During the time she spent working in the Polish ghetto, she managed to smuggle out and save 2,500 children.
Eventually, she was caught. The Nazis beat her severely and broke both of her arms and legs.
Irena kept a record of the names of all the children she had smuggled out. She put her records in a glass jar that she buried under a tree in her backyard. After the war, she tried to locate any parents that may have survived and tried to reunite the families. Most of the adults had died in the gas chambers. Most of those children she helped were placed with foster families or adopted.
In 2007, Irena was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. She was not selected. Al Gore won, for a slide show on global warming.
Later, another politician, Barack Hussien Obama, won for his work as a community organizer for ACORN.
This is heartbreaking for two reasons. Irena's courage and determination in the very face of evil goes unnoticed and, the values currently placed on an individual's accomplishments seem to be greatly diminished.
It seems almost daily that we learn of some person or organization using their influence and power to diminish American principles of honesty, morality, courage and wisdom. It is becoming commonplace to witness a hunger for vulgarity and derision for that which is wholesome and good.
With complete control, our government has removed God and the Christian-Judeo principles upon which our nation was founded from our educational system. There is currently an effort underway to threaten court martial against any soldier who wishes to express his or her Christian faith. Our government has chosen to elevate homosexual sodomy to an acceptable level in our military culture but if you are a Christian, don't ask, don't tell.
I find myself fantasizing how General George Washington or General Patton would respond to this notion.
What happened to right versus wrong? Where is moral ethics being taught, encouraged and enforced? Why would those of authority select Chicken Little Gore and his "sky is falling" drivel, or Mr. Pretty-Speech Obama who passed out other people's money, over the sacrifices of a woman who spit in the face of evil?
I submit that those in positions of power who are making these decisions are themselves without principles or values worthy of power.
Irena Sendler lived to be 98 years of age. I encourage all of us to be more mindful of the values we treasure and where we place our respect.

While the latest version of Android has been out in the wild for sometime, only a few devices are rocking the newest version of Android. The new Android platform distribution report from Google illustrates that fragmentation is still the biggest issue with its mobile operating system. In a report dated July 7, Google's latest report shows that just 17.9% of Android users have access to the latest version of the software.
Fragmentation has always been a big issue for Google, and it continues to be the biggest turn-off about the platform in general. While Apple has always been able to boast a near 90 percent adoption rate of its latest software, Google has often struggled to reach 20 percent, and this is true with the latest version of Android (aka KitKat) with only 17.9 percent of users being on the newest version.
The problem with Android is that most users get stuck with old versions of the software thanks to device manufacturers and carriers not wanting to update older devices (even if those old devices are just 6 months old).
The report shows that 0.7 percent of devices still use Android 2.2 Froyo, 13.5 percent use 2.3 Gingerbread, 11.4 percent of devices are stuck on Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, and a total of 58.4 percent are still running various versions of Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.
While Android KitKat has had a faster adoption rate than any other version of Android in the history of the operating system, the numbers still leave a lot to be desired. A large chunk of the fast adoption rate numbers come from the fact that new devices such as the Samsung Galaxy S5 and the HTC M8 were released with the latest of Android version pre-installed.
Unfortunately the vast majority of Android devices will likely never be upgraded to KitKat thanks to the business practices of the four major carriers who simply want you to purchase a newer device, which already has the latest version of Android installed. When it comes to adoption rates of new software, Google has a lot to improve upon, and it is this reason alone why many people opt to stay with devices from competing companies such as the iPhone and Windows Phone from Microsoft.

How can I access a controller instance from the view? E.g. I have a
HomeController which then returns my
Index view. Inside of that view I want to access the
HomeController instance that created the view. How do I do that?
How can I access a controller instance from the view? E.g. I have a
ViewContext.Controller, and you'll need to cast it.
This is covered with a few extra wrinkles in post http://stackoverflow.com/questions/151963/asp-net-mvc-how-do-i-get-virtual-url-for-the-current-controller-view.
EDIT: This is to add some meat to Mark Seemann's recommendation that you keep functionality out of the view as much as humanly possible. If you are using the controller to help determine the markup of the rendered page, you may want to use the
This approach will help to enforce separation-of-concerns because the action method redirected to can do all the heavy lifting with respect to presentation rules. It will need to return a Partial View to work correctly within your parent view.
In my opinion, you should consider a design where the View doesn't need to know about the Controller. The idea is that the Controller deals with the request, conjures up a Model and hands that Model off to the View. At that point, the Controller's work is done.
I think it is an indication of a design flaw if the View needs to know anything about the Controller. Can you share more about what it is that you are trying to accomplish?
I often find that when dealing with well-designed frameworks (such as the MVC framework), if it feels like the framework is fighting you, you are probably going about the task in the wrong way. This has happened to me a lot, and stepping back and asking myself what it is that I'm really trying to accomplish often leads to new insights.

Cholesterol Management
As a healthcare provider, you understand the importance of helping patients choose cost-effective generic statin medications for managing high cholesterol. When a patient has a goal of lowering LDL by less than 40%, a generic statin should be considered before a brand medication. For a goal of lowering LDL by 40% or more, a brand medication such as Lipitor may be necessary.
It is important for you to know that Lipitor will become available as a generic on November 30, 2011. At that time, brand cholesterol medications will cost patients more and we have communicated this to our members so they can discuss their options with their Network Provider.
To ensure the most cost-effective and medically necessary medication for cholesterol management, Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Mississippi will require a prior authorization for all new high-dosage Crestor (20mg and 40 mg) prescriptions. Please read the information below regarding the questions and clinical criteria that will be required in the assessment of the high-dose Crestor prior authorization process.
- Does the patient require a percentage LDL reduction goal of greater than 40%? If so, please be prepared to enter the percentage LDL reduction goal, provide medical documentation of the patient's current LDL and the diet and exercise treatment plan that will supplement the prescribing of high-dose Crestor.
- Does the patient require a percentage LDL reduction goal of less than 40%? If so, please be prepared to provide the following information:
- Medical documentation of patient's current LDL.
- Medical documentation indicating failure of previous generic statin, Lipitor, Crestor (5mg or 10mg) or another brand name statin medication.
- Medical documentation showing failure of LDL reduction goals based on previous usage of medications listed above. Medical documentation will need to include:
- Patient's initial LDL
- Treatment therapy used to treat initial LDL, including diet and exercise
- Duration of the treatment therapy to assess results
- Side effects encountered while using previously prescribed medications
- Diet and exercise treatment plan that will supplement the high-dose Crestor prescription
Network Providers may complete the Crestor Prior Authorization process electronically via myAccessBlue. Your electronic prior authorization request and corresponding clinical documentation will be sent directly to Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Mississippi. Once you have submitted your request, you will be able to track its status via myAccessBlue.
Non-Network Providers can select the Prescription Drug Prior Authorization page here.
For questions regarding the new online Crestor Prior Authorization requirement, please contact our Prescription Drug Service Team at 601-664-4998 or 1-800-551-5258.

Yesterday Aug. 25 an episode of 106 and Park aired on BET Television Network with guest host Karrueche Tran reading a joke written by staff writers that made fun of Blue Ivy's hair at the VMAs stating, "I really did wake up like this because my parents didn't comb my hair", a joke she was reading from a teleprompter, which in the moment, even she had to say an apology for to Blue Ivy after realizing what had been said.
Since the show aired President of BET Music Programming and Specials Stephen G. Hill has issued an apology on Twitter stating it was in poor taste:
Stephen Hill @StephenGHill
(1/4) Last night on 106 & Park there was a stupid, unthoughtful joke made about a young child.
1:15 PM - 26 Aug 2014
Stephen Hill @StephenGHill
(2/4)We apologize publically to the child's parents (and have done so privately) and we have taken punitive actions with those responsible.
1:15 PM - 26 Aug 2014
Stephen Hill @StephenGHill
(3/4)It was very bad judgment and we will serve you much better in the future.
1:16 PM - 26 Aug 2014
Stephen Hill @StephenGHill
(4/4) Oh, and please don't hate on Karrueche; it was NOT her fault. We also apologize to her for putting her in that position.
1:18 PM - 26 Aug 2014
according to For Harriet Celebrating the Fullness of Black Womanhood
The joke was absolutely in poor taste and there should be a reevaluation of how the community views natural black hair. More important its sad to know BET Television of all networks could even think it appropriate to make fun of a child much less an African American child and their hair.
On Tuesday, she took to Instagram to issue an apology for her part in the joke:
"Past two days have been extremely draining.. As I geared up for a big day for myself – hosting a live show.. I never expected things to turn out this way.. I apologize to any and everyone who felt offended in any way by the comments made by BET executed through me.. I would never disrespect anyone's child in any way and anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE Beyoncé. My comments have been in complete shambles.. yes I am human too and yes I do make mistakes.. But all this negativity and death wishes are quite a lot.. Definitely a lesson learned from here forth.. Again, on behalf of MYSELF, my sincerest apologies ❤ #BeyHive" according to Rap Up.

Celebrate Black history project highlighted the Black oral heritage among people of African blood, whose ancestors presumably originated storytelling with the creation of civilization in Africa. In the spotlight is storyteller Karima Amin we caught with her for a interview on the black history month here's what she had to say.
How did you get started in your career and/or Organization?
That's a good question, since I have always worked at doing several things at one time. Which career? Which organization? From the time that I was in second grade, I knew that I wanted to be a teacher. I had fantastic teachers throughout my elementary and high school years and in 1969, my dream became a reality. I loved teaching and had some great experiences, working with grades 7 - 12. 25 years later, I resigned from the Buffalo Public Schools in 1994 to pursue storytelling as my full-time occupation. I had been telling stories since the 1980's. I officially retired from the Buffalo Public Schools in 2002. In 1994, storytelling took me into New York State prisons. What I learned and people I met, led to the founding of Prisoners Are People Too in 2005. This organization is now entering its ninth year of prisoner justice advocacy. It is an incorporated 501 (c) (3) not-for-profit organization, and has chapters in Erie and Niagara counties. I am also an author, having had several books and articles published. I am most proud of The Adventures of Brer Rabbit and Friends which can be found at Amazon.com. It includes stories created by my people during the era of Enslavement. In the interest of providing community education, my articles on criminal injustice are printed monthly in The Challenger, The Buffalo Criterion, Building Bridges, and occasionally, The Buffalo Bullet.
What were some of the cultural influences that made an impact on you?
There have been multiple cultural influences in my life. My family, my parents in particular, have had a profound impact on me. Though my parents (Harvey Aiken and Bessie Mabry Aiken) joined The Ancestors years ago, they are still with me, guiding and protecting. I have two sisters, Elizabeth and Wendy Aiken, and a strong extended family, that has always loved and cared about me. A belief in a Higher Power (God/Allah) was instilled in me at a very early age. This is my "power source." The music, stories, and poetry of my people have always given me exactly what I've needed in my cultural growth and development. I was blessed to be influenced by the 1960's Black Arts and Black Power Movements. My mother often said, "When you know who you are, you can go anywhere." Both Movements taught me that. I discovered strength and beauty in my Blackness. She also said, "You don't need a lot to do a lot; take the best of what you have and do your best with it." All of this has made me who I am and I have tried to share this with my three children and with all whom I've encountered.
How important is History to you and how has that shaped who you are today?
Who are we without history? How can we know who we are or where we are without it? How can we look to a future without some knowledge based on history? I am a reflection of my elder-folks. I listened to their stories and I am still listening. I have asked questions and I need to ask more. If I could return to the past, I would ask the questions that I didn't know how to ask at that time. I understand that knowledge of my history is critical. I am always asking questions and listening. John Henrik Clarke, a noted African American scholar said: "History is not everything, but it is a starting point. History is a clock that people use to tell their political and cultural time of day. It is a compass they use to find themselves on the map of human geography. It tells them where they are but, more importantly, what they must be."
If you could go back in time as one person in Black History who would it be and why?
I am a great admirer of Ida B. Wells (Barnett). She was born in 1862, in Holly Springs, Mississippi and died in 1931. For all of her life, she was a fighter and outspoken radical at a time when women rarely assumed such a stance. At an early age, after losing both parents to yellow fever, she disguised herself as an older person (she was 16), got a teaching job, and took over the responsibility of raising her younger siblings. Later she attended Rust and Fisk Universities. She became a journalist and editor of a newspaper that she founded, "Free Speech." She also authored "The Red Record," a book which documented thousands of lynchings in America. When the "Free Speech" office was burned to the ground by the KKK, she rebuilt it and continued her work, despite threats on her life. "The Red Record" sold around the world and America's ugliness was exposed in a way that hadn't been done before. After marrying F. L. Barnett, an attorney and newspaper editor, she moved to Chicago and continued her anti-lynching crusade. Ida B. Wells was also well-known as a suffragist who fought for women's rights, especially the right to vote. Like all of the Black women whom I admire, yesterday and today, she was strong, honest, bold, confident, diligent, loving, kind, and God-fearing, ---willing to step up and speak out against injustice.
As we look at the rich cultural history of Buffalo visually from the project how does it make you feel and what do you feel people should take from it?
I am a native Buffalonian and I love this city in spite of its flaws. This is my home. Hopefully, people will see that we are vibrant, strong, and resilient. You can't keep us down. Black Buffalonians have distinguished themselves in every arena of life...education, the arts, politics, entrepreneurship, literature, architecture, medicine, fashion, religion. Sports...and the list goes on. We are rich!
Any project coming and where can people find your work, business and/or organization?
I love storytelling. With Sharon Jordan Holley, I co-founded Tradition Keepers: Black Storytellers of WNY and We All Storytellers. Information about my storytelling can be found at my website: www.karimatells.com. You can find Tradition Keepers on Facebook is also a co-founder of Daughters of Creative Sound, an African American women's drum and percussion ensemble. Find us on Facebook. Information about Prisoners Are People Too, Inc. can be found at our website: www.prp2.org. We also have a Facebook page.
What footprint on History would you like to leave or open the doors too?
My high school history teacher, Mrs. Ora Curry, was one who inspired me to be a teacher. She was a great teacher. Whenever we left each other's company, she never said, "Good-bye." She always said, "Be good." Years later, long after high school, she still said, "Be good." I have tried to "be good" and I have always tried to give my best, just like my mother said I should. Perhaps some will remember me for that.

One of the requirements to transfer into a Purdue engineering professional school is to have completed nine courses that are equivalent to courses students complete during the Purdue First-Year Engineering Program. Some Indiana institutions offer these equivalencies and you may use the table below to identify the courses at these schools.
In addition to the course equivalencies, students should be aware of additional institution-specific information below.
Last updated: April 2015
* ENGR 18100 (5 credits) can substitute for both the ENGR 13200 requirement (2 credits) and the Science Selective (3 credits).
** No equivalency has been established for CS 15900 at these institutions. Students from these institutions may transfer into Purdue-West Lafayette with FYE complete through the use of the Chemistry courses for the Science Selective. In some Engineering majors, CS 15900 may be required following entry to Purdue.
1IUPUI courses ENGR 19500 and ENGR 19600 at IUPUI Indianapolis are considered equivalent to ENGR 10000 and ENGR 12600 at Purdue-West Lafayette. These IUPUI courses also satisfy the Purdue-West Lafayette ENGR 13100 and ENGR 13200 requirements.
Additional Information
Some engineering professional programs are closed to transfer applicants. However, students at Purdue regional campuses (Calumet, North Central, and IPFW) may still apply to these closed programs (with the exception of Biomedical Engineering). Students from other Indiana institutions, including IUPUI, will not be considered for admission to engineering programs that are closed to transfer students. Visit the closed program web page.
