She'd banished every other memory on her way home. This one dream was so majestic it seemed unfit to share anything with it. She feared a picture of her precious moment would seep through the smile she couldn't hide and someone would catch it and drag her back into the dull silent world.
It was a kiss that lasted seconds, but in her head it was a cinematic that went on for hours. Her heart pounded so viciously to the point she thought the sound alone could fill the entire world around her. She recalled her kiss, a blush creeping on her cheeks.
She closed her eyes tightly as she stirred in bed. Maybe her dream will go on if she goes to sleep. She tried so hard but failed. The pounding was getting louder with each passing minute. She almost thought the neighbors would complain about the noise, or maybe her mother will start questioning her sudden rush to her room.
She glanced at herself in the mirror. She was beautiful, yet her beauty felt different today. Another smile crossed her lips, but she moved away from her reflection. It may reveal her secret. True her mirror was her best friend, but even her mirror couldn't share her dream, not today at least. She opened the door and went out to her family. She joined them in silence, and pretended not to care as she distracted herself with the voices from television though she couldn't understand a single word of what was being said. Her mind was at a stand still. It refused to take one step further.
Everyone else fell asleep. Her body was exhausted and drained by then, though her soul had only awakened hours ago, and still soared in the memories. She'd chosen to stay awake till her spirit comes down again and settle within her body. Yet she couldn't take it any longer as she grabbed her phone. She enjoyed the tone the numbers gave as she tapped them hurriedly and bit her lip as it rang on the other side before his voice came through.
"Hey love,"
"Say it again!"
She heard him chuckle before the word formed through his lips over and over again.
"Love, love, love, till the world stands still love,"

Reviews for Pork and Mushroom Breakfast Pizza
"Used vegetarian sausage and everyone liked it."
"My husband loves this recipe. I added scrambled eggs (not completely cooked as they'll cook more in the oven), onion and green pepper. I also used Jimmy Dean pork sausage instead of ground pork--doesn't need to be cooked. I substituted tube pizza dough and pre baked it for about 9 minutes. The nice thing about pizzas is you can use what you like or what you have on hand. Don't be afraid to experiment."
"My gang realy liked this, but I have to admit I added chopped green pepper, onions, to this. Love the idea of crescent rolls for the crust."
"Good but I would add next time in order to be a real breakfast pizza... keep the sausage and mushrooms and add cheese, and onions and peppers mixed in an egg mixtures like you would do an omelet. will try this soon and let you know how my additions try out."
"Good starter but this needs help. Onions, garlic, salt & pepper and red pepper flakes. I don't think I have ever followed a recipe exactly - I either don't have an ingredient and have to substitute or just want a different flavor. Some folks aren't as creative in the kitchen and truly benefit from what others add/delete/change in a recipe. I say "kudos" to those that experiment and let others know!"

CAIRO — Field Marshal Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, a universally acknowledged but unannounced presidential candidate in Egypt, received an early endorsement Thursday from President Vladimir Putin of Russia.
Sissi was in Moscow on a visit widely seen as the latest in a series of carefully choreographed steps from general to president, and even before the two leaders met, his wardrobe had already dominated the news. Photographs of the field marshal striding forward in a civilian suit instead of his customary military uniform filled both the state and private media: a more presidential look.
The trip also served to demonstrate his strength at home and abroad by delivering a message to Washington about Egypt's independence.
Sissi's stated purpose was to negotiate a deal to buy Russian weapons with money donated by the Persian Gulf sponsors of the new military-backed government, reportedly as much as $2 billion. Such a purchase would send a signal that the Egyptian military was not solely reliant on the United States, which normally gives Egypt about $1.3 billion a year in military equipment and services but has suspended certain shipments in response to the military ouster last summer of its first freely elected president, Mohammed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood.
The Obama administration has said it would resume full shipments when Egypt takes steps toward democracy, and in the meantime Egypt is eager to show the United States that it has alternative allies if Washington proves too difficult.
The Soviet Union was Egypt's major military patron during much of the Cold War, before President Anwar el-Sadat switched allegiances with the Camp David peace accords. But US officials have said they are not worried about a new Russian-Egyptian alliance, in part because Egypt is deeply dependent on Washington for spare parts and upkeep of its existing equipment.
But Putin, who has been looking to expand Russia's influence in the Middle East, was eager to welcome his visitor and encourage his ambitions.
"I know that you, Mr. Defense Minister, have decided to run for president of Egypt," Putin told Sissi, according to news reports. "I wish you luck both from myself personally and from the Russian people."
Sissi told Putin, "Our visit offers a new start to the development of military and technological cooperation between Egypt and Russia. We hope to speed up the cooperation."

No. 13 Arizona Softball (32-14, 9-9 Pac-12) did not lead the 16th-ranked Oregon Ducks (34-12, 11-8 Pac-12) until the bottom of the eighth inning when Hallie Wilson broke a 4-4 tie with a two-out single to center field in the bottom of the eighth that scored Chelsea Goodacre from third.
The Cats avoided the sweep with the hit and got back to .500 in conference play after Oregon took the first two games of the series.
The victory marked the second consecutive year that Oregon won games one and two and Arizona bounced back to win game three in Tucson.
The hit was Arizona's second walk-off, extra-inning victory of the season; Arizona downed San Diego State 8-6 in eight on March 28 on a Shelby Pendley homer.
It was Wilson's second hit of the day and fifth hit of the series.
The team's offenses traded blows early with Oregon taking a two run advantage in the top of the first and the Cats responding with two of their own in the bottom half. Likewise in the third, the teams traded two-spots. Zeros would fill the next four innings in the line score.
Oregon put a runner in scoring position with only one out in its extra inning but could not score.
Arizona took advantage of a similar situation. Jessica Spigner popped out to begin the frame before consecutive singles by Goodacre and Alex Lavine had the Cats in business. Pinch-hitter Baillie Kirker grounded into a fielder's choice and put runners on the corners for Wilson. The freshman sailed a ball out of the reach of Oregon centerfielder Janie Takeda near the warning track in right-center to win the game.
Lini Koria led the team offensively with a pair of RBI as well as her third home run of the series, and fifth in five games. Along with Wilson's RBI, Spigner and Nicole Bryan each brought home a run in the contest.
Kenzie Fowler (14-6) picked up the win for Arizona in relief of starter Shelby Babcock. Fowler entered in the fourth to pitch five scoreless innings in which she allowed just four hits. Fowler walked two and struck out five.
Jessica Moore (24-9) was credited with the loss in relief of UO starter Karissa Hovinga. Moore entered with two out in the seventh inning, got the first two batters she faced out before allowing three singles in the bottom of the eighth, including Wilson's walk-off. Hovinga pitched 6.2 innings and allowed four runs on nine hits while walking one and striking four Wildcats out.
Kailee Cuico got the scoring started in the top of the first inning when she homered to left field with two out and one on to give Oregon a 2-0 lead.
Arizona answered back with two runs of its own when Koria drew a bases-loaded walk and Spigner was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded to tie the game at two.
In the third inning, Oregon scored a couple more two out runs on an Alexa Peterson double to right field.
Like they did in the first, the Cats responded right away. Koria led off the bottom of the third with her 14th homer of the season. Spigner followed with a double to left field and was batted home by Bryan's single down the left field line to re-tie the game.
Arizona had just one hit from the fourth to the seventh innings, while Oregon put runners in scoring position in both the fourth and fifth frames.
The Cats brought the heart of their order up to try to win it in the bottom of the seventh but went down in order.
In the extra inning, Oregon got a leadoff walk followed by a one-out single to get the go-ahead runner into scoring position with just one out. Fowler struck out Jamie Rae Sullivan and got pinch-hitter Hannah Melick to ground out to end the threat.
In the bottom half, Goodacre and Lavine singled and Wilson won it with an RBI single to center.
The Cats salvaged a win, but dropped the series to the Ducks 2-1. It is Arizona's third series loss of the season.
Arizona is back in action when it travels to UCLA for three games May 4-6. The Cats and the Bruins battle Friday (7:00 p.m.), Saturday (6:00 p.m.) and Sunday (12:00 p.m.).

A Yosemite High School science teacher in California had a new lesson for the students after the spring break; don't judge by appearances. According to the NBC News report on Mar. 24, Karen Adel Scot returned after the spring break as a trans woman.
Scot, formerly known to the students as Gary Sconce, has taught science for 30 years (24 at Yosemite) and notified school officials of her plan to transition from male to female after the spring break in April. The school administrators sent letters home to the students' parents informing them of their legal obligation to abide by the state's law forbidding discrimination against Scot due to her transition in gender identity.
"Being transgender is not a choice," Scot wrote to colleagues resulting in a controversy after it leaked into the social media. She wanted to keep the transition quiet but when the letter became public, she was forced to 'out' herself.
Mara Keisling, executive director of the National Center for Transgender Equality in Washington, D.C. advises educational teachers to refrain from the public 'eye' by keeping the gender transition a personal matter.
Scot is 56-years-young with two adult children. She had been recognized as an award-winning educator while she kept her inner identity a secret. Her wife of 35 years is seeking a divorce.
While many individuals are not comfortable with Scot's male-to-female transition, she is receiving welcoming support from numerous students and parents. She finally feels the inner conflict has been lifted by being a trans woman.

I can't seem to find any information on this, so I turn to stackoverflow. How efficient are the iterators of std::tr1::unordered_map in C++? Especially compared to, say, list iterators. Would it make sense to make a wrapper class that also holds all the keys in a list to allow for efficient iteration (my code does use a lot of iteration over the keys in an unordered_map). For those who will recommend boost, I can't use it (for whatever reasons).
The unordered_map iterator basically just has to walk over the internal tree structure of the hashtable. This just means doing some pointer following, and so should be pretty efficient. Of course, if you are walking an unordered_map a lot, you may be using the wrong data structure in the first place. In any case, the answer to this, as it is for all performance questions, is for you to time your specific code to see if it is fast enough.
I haven't checked TR1, but N3035 (C++0x draft) says this:
The standard isn't going to give an efficiency guarantee other than in terms of complexity, so you have no guaranteed comparison of
In practice, I'd expect an
Unfortunately, you can't say for sure if something is efficient enough unless you've tried it and measured the results. I can tell you that the standard library, TR1, and Boost classes have had tons of eyes on them. They're probably as fast as they're going to get for most common use cases. Walking an container is certainly a common use case.
With all that said, you need to ask yourself a few questions:

Area of expertise
Math and Science
Hi, I'm Stacey Burt. I'm a math and science teacher enjoying my 11th year in the classroom. I hold an undergraduate degree in elementary education and a graduate degree in special education with a concentration in gifted and talented education. I teach 6th grade at The Discovery School, a magnet school serving gifted and high-achieving students from her school district, in Murfreesboro, TN.
Technology plays a vital role for students at our school, as grades 4-6 are issued MacBook laptops to use in and out of the classroom each academic year. Our school curriculum is based on the Schoolwide Enrichment Model (SEM) created by Dr. Joseph Renzulli, where students participate in enrichment clusters once a week for two hours. There they investigate topics beyond the regular curriculum and based on student interest.
My classroom is organized to encourage creative thinking, independent problem-solving, and open-ended discussions. From the "alternative seating" (yoga balls) to the student-created tessellations covering the ceiling tiles to the cozy indirect lighting, students and visitors soon realize the atmosphere was created with comfort and accessibility in mind. Accessibility to books, (all genres), to hands-on kits and science materials, and to technology (hand held GPS's and probe ware), all of which is available for students to use at school or at home.
Teaching is my passion and I have found that I am constantly reminding myself of two things:
- Make it Relevant
- Make it Count
I feel I owe it to my students to give them all I have every day with every lesson I teach. I believe that the educational journey is one that teacher and student should take together. Each year I am in awe of how much my students actually teach me.
I want students that enter my classroom to feel safe and willing to take risks, make mistakes, giggle, and most importantly, become the primary stakeholders in their educational story.

"Acting is a creative outlet, and so is architecture."
Most people know Wayne Rogers as the first "trapper John" on the long running and wildly popular television series MASH. Nowadays Rogers is a serious developer with dozens of large projects to his credit.
"We've done everything. We've done hotels, high-rises, a lot of residential development. In fact, I've got one up in Crestview, north of the bay. It's about a 500-home subdivision."
Rogers and his partner Larry Pennock want their next project to take place here in Bay County. The group bid $50 million for the airport property. Of the four bidders, the amount comes in third, but Rogers is optimistic.
"If it's money only they're considering, I'm not sure we're appropriate people to do this. We believe, and we've been successful at integrating with community, and that what we do."
"We've gone around and talked to everybody and said, 'tell me what you like to see, tell me what you want,' and we're incorporated it into our plans."
So what are the plans?
"This is built around the concept of a coordinated village so you could walk from one side to the other it will have a central area that is entertainment, and commercial, and there will be a marina."
Design plans include about 2,000 low rise residential units, a golf course, 200 acres of green space, and 80 acres of land that would be donated to Florida State to expand the university.
The design is meant to be pedestrian friendly. This sketch shows the site can be walked in about 10 minutes.
"There is 4,000 units of residential and ours is 2000. We're building low-rise; they're building high-rise. That's not what the city wants. We went around and talked to leaders in the city. I'm talking about commissioners, about the mayor, people who care about the city. They said this is what we want and this is what we've incorporated."
The airport board will be reviewing all of the proposals at their next meeting on October 16. Whoever wins the airport land bid will have to be patient. They won't be able to break ground until the new airport in West Bay is open for business. That will probably take about four years.
The highest bidder is PCA Development. They've offered $61 million and plans that include affordable housing, assisted living and public meeting areas.

Have you been putting off a Walt Disney World vacation because you think it is too expensive? Try some of these tips and start saving today for your next family vacation at Walt Disney World, it really is a magical experience not to be missed!
Plan ahead! Call an Authorized Disney travel agent and find out about Florida Resident specials and other seasonal Walt Disney World specials like Free Disney Dining! Booking ahead can also give you time to save for your vacation.
One of the biggest expenses is your food budget. Eating in the parks for three meals a day will not only empty your wallet but also make it a challenge to eat healthy. One thing you will need on a Disney vacation is a lot of energy and stamina, it is a lot of walking and you want to fuel your body with good food. You can order healthy food options ahead of time and have them delivered to your room. Call Garden Grocer or We Go Shop and place an order for food and have it delivered right to your hotel. If you have a refrigerator in you room you can order even more options, but there are a lot of basic items you can have on hand to eat for breakfast, lunch and snacks that don't need refrigeration. You are allowed to bring a soft cooler into the Disney Parks so you can make some sandwiches and a lot of healthy snacks for the day and then have a nice dinner.
Another big vacation expense is all of the extras! Souvenirs, daily water, and more. A little planning ahead will help here too. If you are an Amazon Prime member (if not maybe consider joining) you can order a case of water, diapers, Disney t-shirts, souvenirs and have the delivered to your hotel with free 2 day shipping.
Staying on the Disney Property adds a great value to your vacation. You save money on parking because Disney offers free transportation to all of their many parks and recreation areas like Downtown Disney. Take advantage of the free transportation and spend one day visiting the many resorts and walking around. A trip on the monorail for many children is super fun and you can get off and walk around the Contemporary, Grand Floridian and the Polynesian. You can also take the ferry boat over to the Wilderness Resort area. Spending some time walking and exploring Downtown Disney and the Boardwalk area can be a lot of free fun too!
Planning ahead and using an authorized Disney Travel Agent will be the best way to start planning your next Walt Disney World vacation. Make it a fun challenge for your family, grab a jar, bottle and create a spare change Vacation Fund. During your saving period just say to no certain little extras like movies and coffees and throw the money in the jar. It will be worth it as you sit back and enjoy the Magic of Disney.
Happy Vacation Savings!

The Desert Dogs scored six unanswered runs in the final two innings to turn a 4-0 deficit into a 6-4 win over the Solar Sox.
Brian Goodwin, Steve Souza, and Robert Benincasa were the three Nationals to see game action.
Goodwin batted second and played centerfield, but went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts. He plated a run with an RBI groundout in the 3rd. Defensively, he made two putouts.
As usual, Souza made his appearance count. The taxi-squad member was slotted 7th in the lineup and doubled in the 2nd to drive in the first Mesa run and singled in the 4th (pictured), finishing the game at 2-for-4 to raise his average to .364 for the fall. He snared three flyballs while playing right field.
Benincasa, recently featured by Byron Kerr for MASN, worked around a single and a walk to pitch a scoreless 7th inning for the Solar Sox. The appearance lowered his ERA to an even 4.00 (4R in 9IP).
The two teams rematch this afternoon in Glendale. The Salt River Rafters also lost to preserve Mesa's 1½ game lead in the AFL East and reduce the Solar Sox magic number to clinch a spot in the AFL title game to six with seven games left.
5 Responses to "AFL Update: Nov. 7, 2013"
I think Souza is the best hitter in the Nationals minor league system. The ball jumps off his bat. It is going to be tough not to bring him up to the big club soon. Might be trade bait.
I have typed this before….SS will be on Werth~s hip all of this March camp.
this is where Werth contract really manifests in werth…good pun?- mentorship and leadership.
Luke Scott next addition.
ryhmes will return to SYR???
Boone Logan next after that…that name sounds good to fans in Virginia….
and if we can't get Scott, go for Incognito???
Get them both!
My mouth is watering at the prospect of getting Scott's super-mega-awesome bat. Over the past three years he's hit .231/.303/.421. That's easily worth, what?, $9-10m per season, for 5 years? I think that would do the trick. It'll also be good to see Scott back in his natural LF position. Harper can get an occasional Sunday start
Since Richie looks like he'll be out of work too, we should groom him into a coaching gig. Maybe something like Chief Toughening-Up Instructor.
Now explain to me how that team wouldn't be guaranteed 100 wins.
Luke Scott & Incognito in a room together; now that's a mouth watering idea.

Ella Enchanted
by Gail Carson Levine
Ella Enchanted Chapter 27 Summary
- The castle is huge and super impressive. Ella hasn't been there since she was an infant, so she's blown away.
- A squire points out the line to meet the prince and asks her to dance. She accepts, but watches Char while she dances. At one point, a blond girl makes him laugh. Hm, do we detect a hint of jealousy?
- From her vantage point, she can also tell that Hattie is ready to move in on Char once he gets through the line of introductions.
- There goes her resolve not to make contact. Ella gets in the introduction line and presents herself to the prince as Lela.
- The meet-and-greet isn't going too well, until Ella starts speaking Ayorthaian. So, now they have something to talk about, and Hattie is mad that someone else is commandeering his attention.
- They dance together. At one point he looks like he's on the verge of recognizing her and asks whether she likes to slide down stair rails. She lies and says that she's afraid of heights.
- Finally, Char remembers that he should be talking to his other guests. He says he'll look for her later.
- Ella hops in her coach and goes home.
- The next day, Hattie recounts how often the prince had danced with her and how enamored he was of her. Yeah, right.
- Ella resolves to keep her distance the next evening. It's not raining but Lucinda gives her a coach anyway, along with a tiara and pendant of pink roses that match her silvery blue gown.
- When she arrives, she sees Char dancing with the blond chick. However, he looks at Ella over the girl's shoulder and mouths, "Wait for me." Which she does.
- He dances with Ella, and asks her if she'll attend the following night: his father has asked him to sing an Ayorthaian song. He sings a snippet in her ear, and it's about remembering someone. Hmm…
- Ella excuses herself because it's almost midnight. Before she leaves, he tells her to call him Char and holds her hand briefly. Swoon.

The Melt Method: A Breakthrough Self-Treatment System to Eliminate Chronic Pain, Erase the Signs of Aging, and Feel Fantastic in Just 10 Minutes a Day!
ISBN13:by Hitzmann, Sue
Questions About This Book?
What version or edition is this?
This is the 1st edition with a publication date of 1/1/2013.
What is included with this book?
- The New copy of this book will include any supplemental materials advertised. Please check the title of the book to determine if it should include any CDs, lab manuals, study guides, etc.
With her revolutionary MELT Method, Sue Hitzmann is making a healthier, pain-free body accessible to anyone with a few minutes to spare. Countless other programs focus on strengthening muscles or increasing flexibility, but MELT (Myofascial Energetic Length Technique) is the first to recognize the crucial role of the body's connective tissue. Through a series of easy, precise movements-using simple equipment like soft foam rollers and small balls-this groundbreaking program quickly rehydrates connective tissue, making it more elastic and allowing the body to release long-held tension. MELT also helps decrease accumulated stress in the nervous system, which causes most common aches, pains, and chronic symptoms. It's like getting all the benefits of a great massage yet it lasts longer and you can do it on your own!During her years as an exercise physiologist and manual therapist, Hitzmann began to realize how many of her clients lived with pain-the result of injury, illness, childbirth, and the repeated activities of our day-to-day lives. But her techniques are so effective because they don't just relieve pain symptoms, they address the cause of pain (which may not be what you think it is!). Along the way, MELT can also improve posture, aid sleep and digestion, minimize cellulite, and reduce stress and tension. MELT has helped Sue's clients and students avoid surgery, shed excess body fat, regain mobility and flexibility, and even progress from "bad knees" to marathon training. Now anyone can benefit from the same techniques that have made MELT a red-hot word-of-mouth success.

Does O.J. Simpson have brain cancer? That's the rumor floating around, but nobody seems to know the answer for certain quite yet. The original report is coming from the National Enquirer, after all, but many other media outlets are picking it up.
The Enquirer says that "O.J. Simpson is undergoing secret medical tests for a cancerous brain tumor!" That's not all, the tabloid claims. They say their sources indicate Simpson even "blurted out" to another inmate that he did indeed kill Nicole Brown.
Supposedly O.J. Simpson's brain tumor has progressed to such a point that he is stuttering, has vision issues and is dealing with major headaches. He supposedly has even gone so far that he is "begging President Obama for a pardon so he can die in peace at home."
So, what's the truth on this one? The Washington Times notes that Simpson has been in poor health for years. He has gained a lot of weight and there are reports he is dealing with diabetes. However, does O.J. Simpson have a brain tumor that is cancerous? So far it seems that is still speculation and rumor, and many would guess it is not all that likely to be accurate.
Of course Simpson has been angling for some time to find a way out of the Nevada prison, so utilizing health issues as an excuse may just be his next strategy. If O.J. Simpson's brain cancer issue, whether it's real or fabricated, doesn't get him out of prison, he remains on schedule to be eligible for parole in 2017.

Find a Doctor
Request an Appointment
PALM BEACH, FL - Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center's new President and CEO, Kevin Tabb, MD, was the guest of honor at their annual Palm Beach gathering held Sunday, March 4 at The Breakers. The event was co-chaired by Toby and Carl Sloane, Roberta and Stephen R. Weiner, and Lois E. Silverman Yashar and James J. Yashar, MD.
Introducing Dr. Tabb, Stephen B. Kay, Chair of the BIDMC Board of Directors, said that the new President and CEO brings the perfect combination of clinical expertise and business acumen to the medical center. Dr. Tabb came to BIDMC in October 2011 after serving as Chief Medical Officer of Stanford Hospital & Clinics in Stanford, CA.
"We have brought a national leader in health care to Beth Israel Deaconess," Kay said. "He is exactly the right person to honor the hospital's proud legacy and ensure our future leadership in the rapidly changing world of health care."
With the theme, "Be the Future," the evening featured a discussion of what health care may hold for clinicians, hospitals and patients, and an examination of BIDMC's visionary role in its evolution. Proceeds from the evening will support the President's Innovation Fund, which Dr. Tabb will draw upon for new programs and opportunities.
In keeping with the theme, the medical center announced a $1 million gift from the Nancy Lurie Marks Family Foundation to support the research of Matthew Anderson, MD, PhD, in the relatively new and extremely active research field to understand the genetic components of autism. In 2011, Anderson made a major breakthrough when he developed and published his work on a genetically engineered mouse model for autism, which comes closer to mirroring all of the core symptoms of the disorder in humans than any before.
"Generous donors like Nancy Laurie Marks represent both our past and our future," said Dr. Tabb. "Now more than ever, American medical centers require visionary philanthropic support to advance clinical care and groundbreaking research. BIDMC's research enterprise is among the most important in the world."
New Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine addressed the guests to thank BIDMC for being such an important community partner and for taking such good care of the Fenway faithful as the Official Hospital of the Boston Red Sox.
"I am so excited to be in my new role, not just because I intend to bring another World Series trophy to Boston, but also because it is so special and unique to have partnerships like we have with Beth Israel Deaconess," he said. "As a new leader in Boston myself, I welcome your new leader." BIDMC has been the Official Hospital of the Red Sox and Red Sox Nation since 2003.
The discussion on the future of health care was led by Dr. Tabb, Elliot L. Chaikof, MD, PhD, Chair of the Roberta and Stephen R. Weiner Department of Surgery and BIDMC's Surgeon-in-Chief, and Lowell Schnipper, M.D., Clinical Director of the BIDMC Cancer Center and Chief of the Division of Hematology and Oncology.
The evening that began with cocktails at 6 p.m. followed by the program and dinner at 7 p.m., was emceed by Heather Kahn, BIDMC spokesperson and former anchorwoman at WCVB-TV in Boston, and featured entertainment by The Midtown Men, including four of the original cast members of Jersey Boys.
Guests included: Helaine B. Allen; Cynthia and Theodore S. Berenson; Avram J. and Carol R. Goldberg; Heather Kahn; Nancy M. and Stephen B. Karp; Stephen B. Kay and Lis Tarlow; Althea and Bertram Lank; Thelma Linsey; Heidi and Scott C. Schuster; Lois E. Silverman Yashar and James J. Yashar, MD; Gilda and Alfred Slifka; Toby and Carl Sloane; Judith and Herman Swartz; Caron and Kevin Tabb, MD; Martin Trust; and Roberta and Stephen R. Weiner.
As chief medical officer at Stanford Hospital & Clinics, Dr. Tabb had broad strategic and operational responsibilities, which included physician network strategy, clinical quality and patient safety initiatives, regulatory and medical staff affairs, and graduate and continuing medical education. He was previously chief quality and medical information officer at Stanford.
Prior to joining Stanford, Dr. Tabb led the Clinical Data Services Division of GE Healthcare IT. Raised in Berkeley, CA, Dr. Tabb emigrated to Israel at the age of 18 and served in the Israel Defense Forces, the country's military service. He received his undergraduate degree from Hebrew University in Jerusalem and his M.D. from Hebrew University-Hadassah Medical School. He completed his residency in internal medicine at Hadassah Hospital.
Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center is a patient care, teaching and research affiliate of Harvard Medical School, and currently ranks third in National Institutes of Health funding among independent hospitals nationwide. BIDMC is clinically affiliated with the Joslin Diabetes Center and is a research partner of Dana-Farber/Harvard Cancer Center. BIDMC is the official hospital of the Boston Red Sox.

This Hilltop Cream of Chicken Soup with Fines Herbs is an old favorite from the 1950s, updated with fresh herbs. The recipe has been adapted from our book Southern Herb Growing (Shearer Publishing, 1987; revised 1997). MAKES 2 1/2 QUARTS
• 1 chicken, 2 1/2 to 3 pounds, cut into serving pieces• 4 cups water• 1 large onion, chopped• 1 cup sliced celery• 1/2 cup shredded carrot• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sweet marjoram (1 teaspoon dried)• 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh sage (3/4 teaspoon dried)• 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme (3/4 teaspoon dried)• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley• 3 bay leaves, fresh or dried• 1/2 cup butter or margarine• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour• 3 cups milk• 1 cup heavy cream• 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg• 1/2 teaspoon powdered turmeric• 3/4 to 1 cup cooked white rice• Salt and freshly ground white pepper to taste• Additional chopped fresh parsley for garnish
1. Place the chicken pieces, water, vegetables, sweet marjoram, sage, thyme, parsley, and bay in a large, heavy pan (not a tall, deep stock pot) and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until chicken is tender, adding more water as needed to keep ingredients covered by about 2 inches.
2. Remove the chicken from the pot. Cool until it can be handled; remove the skin and bones and cut the meat into bite-size pieces.
3. In a large saucepan, melt the butter and blend in the flour. Cook until bubbling; gradually pour in the milk, stirring constantly.
4. Add the cream, nutmeg, and turmeric. Continue cooking over medium heat until thickened and smooth; stir constantly to keep the mixture from sticking.
5. Slowly add the cream mixture to the broth and vegetables, mixing well.
6. Add the cooked rice, salt and pepper, and cut-up chicken meat. Cook over low heat to simmering, stirring often.
7. Add more milk and/or cream if the soup becomes too thick. Garnish with chopped parsley to serve.
Note: This soup freezes very well. If preparing for the freezer, skip the rice; cooked rice can be added later as you reheat it.

Hodson, with parents Keith and Heather, pose with his All-Around
Saturday night following the championship round of
the Doc Gardner
Memorial Rodeo. When the Hodsons left
their home in Smithers, B.C.,
the temperature hovered around
so the Guymon weather
over the weekend provided
a welcome change. -

**For Immediate Release**
Hodson All-Around Cowboy at Doc Gardner
OPSU men's team moves to second
place in Central Plains Region
-released by OPSU Campus Communications 04-02-2006
by Laura Dahl
Guymon, Okla. - Oklahoma Panhandle
State University's
Logan Hodson won All-Around Cowboy honors at the Doc Gardner
Memorial Rodeo this past weekend. Hodson, a Canadian student
from Telkwa, B.C., turned in great performances in the bareback
and saddle bronc events. His performance led the OPSU men's
team to post an additional 500 points in the Central Plains
Region standings, which moves the team from third to second
place. First and second place teams in each region take a team
to the College National Finals Rodeo in Casper, Wyo. in June
as well as qualifying individuals.
Coming off a personal best 90 point score in the bareback
riding at the professional rodeo in Nacogdoches, Texas, last
week, Hodson placed second in the long round of the bareback
riding, tied for first in the championship round, and placed
first in the aggregate scoring at the Doc Gardner.
In the saddle bronc, Hodson tied for third in the average.
In the same event, Jordan Furnish, from Guymon, placed third
in the long and short rounds, and placed first the average
of that event. Taos Muncy added team and individual points
with a fifth/sixth split in the short go and a sixth place
finish in the average. Trell Etbauer, Seth Schafer, and Weston
Ireland also competed in the short go of that event.
After the Thursday and Friday night performances of the bull
riding, only two qualified rides had been posted. During the
last long round performance on Saturday afternoon, Taos Muncy
made the short go with a 77 point ride and Winston Kusler made
the cut with a 64 point ride. During the championship round,
only two cowboys covered their bulls. Bandy Murphy of Southwestern
Oklahoma State University won the short go with a 77 point
ride and placed first in the average, and Corey Atwell of Coffeyville
Community College in Kansas made a 76 point ride, placing him
second in the short round and second in the average. Muncy
ended up fifth in the average.
With Eli Eastman competing with a broken
ankle, the heeler and his teammate, Levi Swafford, turned
in a sixth place win in the short round and the average of
the team roping. Another OPSU duo, Cody Dees and John Wright
also made the championship round of that event. Coleman Proctor
of Northeastern Oklahoma A&M College and Jake Long of
Northwestern Oklahoma State University out-roped all competitors
by taking first in the long and championship rounds, which
secured them a first place in the aggregate.
Rounding out the men's events,
Buster Holland competed in the short round of the steer wrestling,
an event won by Travis Camac of Fort Hays State. Tyrel Turner
made the championship round of the calf roping, with A.J.
Ormand of Northwestern taking first place in both rounds
and the average.
Chancy Etbauer tied for first with Amy Younger of Bacone College,
both with a 2.5 second run in the long round of the breakaway
roping. Etbauer placed sixth in the average while Younger,
with a tie for second in the short go, won in the aggregate
Kaylee Holt, an Oklahoma State University student from Gruver,
Texas, placed first in the championship round of the barrel
racing and took first in the aggregate scoring. In the goat
tying, Sarah Ellingson of Southwestern Oklahoma State University
placed first in the long and short rounds of the goat tying
with times of 9.6 seconds in both.
Southeastern Oklahoma State University
won the men's
team competition, and Southwestern Oklahoma State University
won the women's team competition. Sarah Ellingson of
Southwestern was the all-around cowgirl.
Thanks to Aaron Loewe and Evan Schmidt for their bullfighting
skills, used to protect the bull riders from the stock. Schmidt
broke his leg in the line of duty on Friday night, and the
latest report indicates he will fully recover. Wacey Munsell
stepped up to help Loewe during the Saturday performances.
OPSU would like to thank the major sponsors,
including CRI Feeders, L&J Auto Parts, Absolute Endeavors, 54 Gas 'n
Go, Texhoma Livestock Auction, Cactus and Frontier Feeders,
Samson Ropes and First National Bank of Texhoma, Goodwell,
and Guymon, Murphy Farms and Duke Energy. Thanks to PTCI and
Tri-County Electric for providing saddles for the men's
and women's all-around titles as well as chute sponsors
including Farmers Elevator, Crazy House, and Hitch Enterprises.
The Bank of the Panhandle and the City of Guymon Convention
and Tourism Board sponsored the men's and women's
teams, respectively.
OPSU Coach Craig Latham said, "I'm proud of the
kids for doing so well at their own rodeo, especially after
they've worked hard for weeks to put it together. I'd
like to thank all of the sponsors who support us as well as
the fans who come out to cheer us. We couldn't be as
successful without them."

When Harry Reid took to the Senate floor last week and said that "all of the horror stories" about Obamacare were "untrue", most political pundits thought Democrats would try to bury that episode within a couple days. Apparently, Sen. Chris Murphy, (D-CT), didn't get the memo.
Here's a partial transcript of Greta van Susteren's cross-examination of Sen. Murphy:
GRETA: It doesn't matter how many times you hear it, it's still hard to believe we heard Harry Reid say this on the Senate floor:
REID: There's plenty of horror stories being told. All of them are untrue.
GRETA: So defend it. All Obamacare horror stories are untrue.
SEN. MURPHY: Well, I think Sen. Reid later that day walked that back, suggesting that not all of the horror stories were untrue.
GRETA: When did he walk it back? I didn't hear him walk it back.
SEN. MURPHY: I think he's made it perfectly clear that we're talking about some very high profile stories that have been put in in response to the State of the Union Speech, a number of commercials against some of our Democratic incumbents that have been -- that really aren't true. There's a commercial running in Michigan, a candidate there says that they lost their doctor and they couldn't get affordable coverage. The truth is that she could keep her doctor under another plan.
GRETA: Here's my problem. Here's the Senate Majority Leader. He goes to the Senate floor and says it. He doesn't go back to the Senate floor and correct it. I mean he had plenty of opportunities to correct it. He owns the floor. And he's not just a first offender in saying awful things about people. He said about Gov. Romney that he'd heard from a credible source that he hadn't paid income taxes. He's a lawyer. He won't even name the source but he says this stuff to slime somebody. This is a leader. This isn't somebody that's just a rank-and-file senator. This is a leader.
The grilling continued another 3 minutes, with Sen. Murphy looking like he'd have more fun undergoing a root canal without a painkiller. Sen. Murphy had a pair of objectives. Sen. Murphy's first objective was to pull attention away from Sen. Reid's statements on the Senate floor that created an anti-Democrat backlash.
Sen. Murphy's other objective was to attempt to turn the page and accuse the Koch Brothers of lying to the American people. Sen. Murphy did the best he could with a terrible hand but he finished the interview looking like mincemeat after Ms. van Susteren sliced and diced his story into tiny pieces.
Finally, AFP put together the ads that Sen. Murphy is talking about. Based on the Democrats' howls, there isn't any doubt that the ads are working.

I've been trying to hangout at The Hangout for years but everytime we go (even though Urbanspoon says they're open), they're either closed or closing. I finally got there one sunny winter day in July with my friend Pen before a visit to the Cygnet Cinema to see Jersey Boys.
We had intended to have a coffee and cake date but when the friendly guy behind the bar mentioned alcohol, it didn't take much for us to change our tune and order a glass of sparkling ($9/glass) and an order of the polenta and sweet potato chips ($9.00).
Our drinks were served in a champagne saucer which had me tickled pink! I felt very sophisticated and glamorous as I sipped my cheeky afternoon beverage.
It may be strange for me to admit this but I don't like polenta and I really don't like polenta chips. I know... I'm as puzzled as you are that I agreed to share an order of polenta on a plate with Pen. I don't know what it is but I find them so bland and stodgy. Perhaps it was foodie intuition or I just got lucky but they were delicious! Crispy on the outside but light and fluffy on the inside and the Habanero mayo was a perfect condiment to accompany them.
I really want to return to Hangout for a meal. We actually tried to get a booking the weekend after (albeit an hour before we wanted to visit) but sadly they were fully booked.
