Houma cook refines impromptu meal into winner
Published: Wednesday, May 7, 2003 at 1:23 p.m.

Cooks often throw a meal together with what's readily available. Sometimes, though, that can also cause a problem -- it comes out good enough that the family wants the same meal again, but the original recipe wasn't written down, so it has to be duplicated from memory.
Such a dilemma faced Darlene P. Flynn.
"I decided to create a dish with ingredients available in the fridge and pantry," she Houma cook said. "And it was an instant winner with my husband, who encouraged me to enter it in the contest. So I had to remember what I did . I wrote it all down then cooked it several times, measuring everything till the taste was perfect for competition. I'm not a measurer, so I had to cook it a few times to get it right."
In the end, she got it right. Her recipe for Italian Crawfish Pasta earned Flynn a first-place finish in the Seafood category of the 28th annual Bayou Gourmet competition. The annual contest is presented by The Courier and the Louisiana State University Cooperative Extension Service in Houma.
"Since I was a small child, but more so since the age of 18, my mom has been a great influence," she said. "We share recipes and give each other advice."
Flynn also credits a course she took at the John Folse Culinary Institute with advancing her cooking skills. "What a wonderful experience. I learned so much during that time .
"I love being in the kitchen and just to start creating something new is exciting. Using what you have available at the time and blending the right seasonings can make for a great and exciting dish."
Italian Crawfish Pasta
-1/4 to 1/2 cup olive oil
-1 medium onion, chopped
-1-1/2 tablespoons minced garlic, wet not dry
-2 stalks celery, chopped
-2 tablespoons butter
-2 pounds cooked, peeled crawfish
-1 (8-ounce) package fresh mushrooms, sliced
-1 (14 1/4-ounce) can Italian stewed tomatoes
-1 tablespoon garlic herb seasoning
-1 tablespoon creole seasoning
-1 teaspoon hot sauce
-1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
-1/4 cup water
-1/2 cup chopped shallots
-1/2 cup chopped parsley
-1 (16-ounce) package angel hair pasta, prepared according to package directions
In a large skillet, combine olive oil, onions, garlic, celery and butter. Saute over medium heat 15 minutes. Add crawfish and mushrooms and cook another 15 minutes or until mushrooms become tender.
Stir in stewed tomatoes and season with garlic herb, creole seasoning, hot sauce and Italian seasoning. Blend well and add water at this time. Cook an additional 15 minutes before adding shallots and parsley. Stir well and continue to cook 15 minutes more.
Serve over angel hair pasta.
Yields 6 servings.

I fell behind, I was around $130.00 owing on my account. Than Penn Foster started assessing me late charges to the tune of $7.50, not just once a day but 3 to 4 times a day every day for months. They ended up turning me over to collections, (USCB Corporation). My account was at $234.00, than USCB offered me a settlement offer for $117.00. Being tax season I was able to & did pay off the settlement offer. Weeks went by and no cert. So I called Penn Foster, they said that USCB had not reported it as being paid. SO, I call USCB, they stated that yes they have informed Penn Foster that it was paid. So I call back Penn Foster, talk to antoher lady, she says it usually takes a couple of weeks for all the processing to go through. So I give it another 2 weeks. Call back Penn Foster, another lady, stated that yes it shows it has been paid and that I should receive my graduation package in about 2 weeks.
That 2 weeks was today, 03-04-2013. No package. So, I call Penn Foster yet again, and now their saying that they do not show that it has been paid, and that I need to contact USCB. Yet again I call USCB, and speak with them, on this phone conversation it is brought to my attention that since I accepted the settlement offer & did not pay the full amount that was in collections, I will not receive my Cert. Even thought the course was completed before this ever went to collections. So I call Penn Foster back, and the lady starts arguing with me, so I argue back & request to speak with a manager. She states that she will not transfer me to a manager. I yelled at her to get a (GD) manager on the phone. She trasnfers me, leaves me on hold for over 5 minutes, someone picks up the phone & hangs up on me. So needless to say I spent a year, and $1,000.00 for a course that I will never receive the certifacte for. Penn Foster and USCB are nothing but theives. DO NOT USE PENN FOSTER>>>

not sure how old it is but the ones from 2012 have a problem using rechargable batteries in the flashes.we bought two units month apart from different vendors and both shut off after a few shots with rechargables. the commander does work fine with them.even letting the rechargables sit for a week so voltage comes down does not help.nikon does not support the idea of using rechargables in them.

I use a Sigma EM-140 ring light - roughly similar to an R1 kit in its basic form - for most work with models (as in small representations of large things, not glamour or fashion models). Usually this is far better than a single flash unit, although for complex situations I've found that multiple flashes are better. The R1 kit would be much simpler in those cases since the SU-800 is easier to program for CLS than the silly Sigma LCD thingie.I pretty much always use it for chasing butterflies. My long macro (200/f4) has no VR, and even in full daylight shutter speeds can be daunting if stopped down to f/16 or f/22 for DOF reasons.I don't own an R1, but one of my friends has one, and I've used his SB-R200s for some real estate shots. I lit the living spaces with regular SB-600 remotes and umbrellas, but it turned out to be useful to hide the R200's in some of the lamps. That provided both light as well as eliminating the oddball color balance problems since they were set up with uncompensated compact fluorescent bulbs.

With the commander SU800 interfaces with the SB900, the SBR200's make great high light and fill flases as they all have their own stands. I always use Ultra 123 3Volt cells, rechargables in that size are next to useless.

Yes, the battery is a down side to the flash units. I think the little flash units will be a good stand-alone addition to my main flash. I'm eager to give them a try.I'm also eager to give my Nikkor 105mm micro a go with this kit. Cheers, Bill P.

In Oceanside, legend of Spanish treasure hits home
In 1950s, doctor claimed treasure from Spanish ship was buried in San Luis Rey Valley
OCEANSIDE In 1539, three Spanish galleons set sail from the Mexican port of Acapulco on a voyage of discovery.
One of the ships sank soon after, while the second returned safely to Mexico in 1540. The fate of the third ship, the Trinidad, is a mystery that has become the stuff of legend.
The mystery captivated San Diego County in the 1950s when a local doctor, Joseph Markey, claimed that years of research and archeological discovery had led him to conclude the ship ended its journey here.
Using old diaries and maps allegedly left behind by surviving members of the expedition, Markey claimed to have discovered a cave east of what is now the Oceanside Harbor containing the remains of the Trinidad's crew, as well as weapons and cache of gold coins.
"Ten million dollars in gold lies buried on a hillside in the San Luis Rey Valley," Markey wrote in an article published Feb. 3, 1950, in the Oceanside Blade Tribune.
Markey's story spread. He presented a report on his findings to the San Diego Historical Society in 1952. Newspapers including the Los Angeles Times later wrote about his claims.
Historians, most notably a San Diego State University history professor named David Weber, eventually challenged Markey's account and asked him to provide hard evidence of his discoveries. None was forthcoming.
But that hasn't stopped treasure hunters over the years from searching for the Trinidad's remains, said Richard Crawford, a local historian and supervisor of special collections at the San Diego Public Library.
"It's a very dramatic story and it really got people going," Crawford said.
Crawford wrote about Markey and the Trinidad in a book of odd stories, called "Stranger than Fiction, Vignettes of San Diego History," that was published in 1995 by the San Diego Historical Society. He'll talk about the legend at 11 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 10, at the Oceanside Public Library.
The ship
The Trinidad was the flagship of a three-vessel flotilla sent by Hernan Cortés to explore the coast of Mexico north and pursue rumors of gold and the legendary Seven Cities of Cíbola.
The expedition was led by Francisco de Ulloa, one of Cortes' top lieutenants.
After one of the ships, the Santo Tomas, was lost at sea, the Trinidad and the Santa Agueda continued as far as the Island of Cedros on the Pacific coast of Baja California. There, Ulloa sent the Santa Agueda back to Acapulco while the Trinidad continued north.
If Ulloa had reached Oceanside in 1540, as Markey claimed, history books would have to be rewritten because it would mean that Ulloa, not Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo, was the first European to set foot in California.
What really happened to the Trinidad is not clear, Crawford said. Many believed that the ship vanished into the seas.
However, even that idea was shaken in the 1920s when historians found documents — including court records — indicating that Ulloa returned to Mexico. One of the records is Ulloa's testimony at a trial in Valladolid, Spain, in May 1542.
Markey, who was either unaware of this evidence — or ignored it — claimed Ulloa died of dysentery after coming ashore near Oceanside.
Kristi Hawthorne, a historian and president of the Oceanside Historical Society, said Markey probably made up the story possibly to attract attention to the city and himself.
"I don't want to rain on anybody's parade, but I find Markey more fascinating than any gold," said Hawthorne, who has researched archival news stories about the doctor.
Markey, an ophthalmologist, had a knack for telling stories, Hawthorne said. The story he wrote about the Trinidad in the Blade Tribune "reads like a dime-store novel," Hawthorne said.
In the article, Markey said he met a reporter in Paris in 1947 who told him about a descendant of Ulloa. After a meeting with the descendant, Markey said he paid researchers in Spain to look for the documents.
The story of the Trinidad was not the only one Markey told, Hawthorne said. He also spoke of finding fossils of early humans, and pictographs of early Native Americans, she said.
"I think he wanted to be the center of attention," Hawthorne said. "I think he knew what he was doing."
Where's the evidence?
Weber, the San Diego State history professor, challenged Markey's story in an article published in the California Historical Society Quarterly in 1971.
In the article, Weber, who died in 2010, asked Markey to present his evidence for evaluation by other historians. Markey said he was writing a book that would present all his evidence but he died in 1985 without publishing it.
The diaries, maps, gold coins and human remains he claimed to have discovered never surfaced.
Crawford said historians believe that there was no reason for Ulloa to carry that much gold on his ship because he was looking for the precious metal not to trade it.
In addition, photographs of Markey inspecting several human skulls that he said were the remains of Ulloa's crew appeared to have been published in a magazine years earlier with a caption identifying the doctor on an expedition in Tahiti, Crawford said.
Oceanside native John Daley said there are treasures in Oceanside but not the kind Markey trumpeted.
"There's a lot of sunken ships off Oceanside," he said. "Most of them are fishing boats."
True believer
Still, there are some who still believe the Trinidad could be off the North County coastline.
Bill Warren, a treasure hunter and former North County resident, said he was working as a singer in Alaska in 1972 when he first read the story and decided to look for the ship.
Warren began searching for the Trinidad in 1976. He gave up after running out of money. but Warren said he believes the ship is there.
He said he found a 500-year-old piece of wood that may have belonged to the ship and evidence of the wreck
using underwater metal detectors. The problem is that the wreck is under about
30 feet of sand, he said.
"I was able to get a sub-bottom profile of an area just offshore and we saw, as in an X-ray, the rest of the ship," Warren said. "I never had enough money to remove the sand from the wreck offshore."

We worked with her to obtain financing / mortgage for a house. She gave us incorrect information that caused us to lose our housing - to literally become homeless. She was all smiles and pleasantness initially, but each day working with her proved to be more and frustrating. When we called her on her mistakes, she became extremely rude. I don't know how she stays in business.
She told us we would have our financing on a certain date and then proceeded to postpone that date repeatedly because of mistakes she'd made. She waited until the last minute to tell us about these mistakes, causing delays and problems that were avoidable. She did not seem to understand the problems she caused with her incorrect information.
When that information proved to be false, and we were left in the lurch, she refused to answer calls, would not respond to emails. She became belligerent and rude. We ended up losing a lot of money because of her, and being put through terrible stress. We were left without housing in the coldest month of the year. This was our first home we were trying to move into, and what should've been a cause for celebration became a nightmare.
Do not patronize her or Legacy Group of Portland, Oregon / Lake Oswego, Oregon. Besides being inept at her profession, she made a number of questionable ethical choices that call her integrity into question. The icing on the cake was her complete lack of professional behavior.
Her website claims she has a "client centered approach and high customer service standards" - we experienced anything but. We've gotten better customer service at fast food places.
Stay away from Legacy Group for your mortgage, home loans, VA loan, residential and commercial lending, foreclosures, mortgage banking, construction loan, finance, realty, realtors, etc.

Obviously the one that takes ages to load has a lot more images but it looks like it loads all the pictures first and THEN shows the page with all the images.
Is there anyway to change it so the post loads first then the images load?

Hi Mikko,
Awesome plugin! I have run into a bit of a snag - you mention that RelevanSSI replaces the default WordPress Search, does it also override the
posts_search filter? I wrote http://pastebin.com/XnvbfpfS which basically takes the search term, finds if it has 'TL' in the term and then returns (in addition) 'TL-' as a search term pre/appended onto whatever else is attached to it). After enabling RelevanSSI, the filter does not work anymore. Is relevanssi_do_query() what I'm looking for here? Do you have a quick example of how I could plug into this area? Thanks!
This is being used to search for post titles --> as most people type in TL123 instead of TL-123 (the filter I wrote attempts to fix that)
I tried to use the "synonym" area, but I believe it's looking for whole terms and not "parts of terms". Is there any regex available in that area as well?

|Here are some details about my project:
|Funky, Casual
What materials did you use? Berocco Vintage 5129 (emerald) Plymouth Yarn Co Gina 0010 ( Olive, Forest, Green, Chartreuse) Plymouth Yarn Co Gina 0001 ( Lilac, Blue, Red, Royal)
What are you most proud of? I've only ever knitted a couple scarves and then socks after taking a class, but I didn't consider myself a true "knitter." I have friends who are what I thought of as Real Knitters, and I suddenly see that I can do way more than I ever expected. I'm excited to finish this sweater and be able to say, "Yes, I made this!" :)
What advice would you give someone starting this project? Even though I've never knitted a full garment, I found my experience with knitting socks (I was taught magic loop, which really suits me) came in handy. I was already used to increases, decreases, short rows, picking up stitches etc., I had never heard of steeking before this class, but Ragga is very calm, smiling (always) and walks you through it so no fear! Ragga is an excellent teacher-probably my favorite so far among many excellent instructors--and I would take another of her classes ASAP. Update: I had some puckering after the adding the third color (I adjusted the strands in the back as I had long ends which helped) so I read online about color work and puckering....One person recommended blocking mid-project to see if that will take care of the problem. So I took the yoke off the needles and onto an extra strand of yarn and blocked by washing in mild shampoo (no conditioner). That was enough to relax the Berroco Vintage to get rid of _most_ of the puckers. So I will continue without frogging in this case~! I see in the images and after blocking it's not perfect, but it's a first sweater, so I knew it would proudly carry some issues as I learn a new skill :)
Gorgeous colors. I love the play of the self striping yarn into the collar. I'm done with a birthday present and should be able to get back to mine now. Look forward to seeing this finished
thank you, the self striping color really shows up after blocking.
Love the colors!
thank you! I'm almost done with the body. It knits up fast.
Absolutely stunning!!! Love your choice of colors!!!
thank you! I'm debating on adding the second color to the cuff... :)
Beautiful choice of colors! I think color 2 on the cuffs would be great. Please upload photos when you have finished it!
Almost done with sleeve 2, so I will upload progress as soon as it's done!

Dileep Avoiding Kavya Madhavan for Bhavana!
Dileep considered Kavya Madhavan as his lucky pair in all his films. They acted as a pair in more than 30 films. Both were regarded as a good onscreen pair by the industry too. Currently, Dileep is said to be avoiding Kavya Madhavan from all his films. He now prefers Bhavana as his heroine.
It has been said that Dileep now asks his producers to cast Bhavana as his heroine. Dileep and his wife Manju Warrier were in news recently. Rumours were in air that they have decided for a mutual divorce. Both even approached the court. But later they compromised and stepped back from their decision.
Kavya was pointed as a reason for their decision of separation. Now Dileep is avoiding Kavya Madhavan as he wants to subside the rumours of his divorce. He even states that Bhavana is his lucky heroine now.
Dileep was the main reason for Kavya's growth as an eminent actress in the industry. He was dragged as a reason for her divorce with her ex-husband Nishal Chandra. Dileep supported Kavya even after her separation by giving her a chance to make a comeback to the industry as a heroine in his Pappy Appacha.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
I found a company selling maltese puppise. They said they are 200 which included delivery via a Pet Pal Shippers. I sent my money through to them and waited. I was then informed by the shippers company that i needed to pay an urgent insurance fee of 490 of which 475 would be fully refundable after puppy delivered.
This was in no way stated when asked about puppy.I stated that i did not have this type of money and it was outrageous that it was not mentioned before sending the money.
I also contacted the seller and told him the same. He denied all knowledge of this,said he contacted the shippers then appologised. But instead of trying to rectify the problem he told me that he had 200 if i could come up with the other 290.!!
Again i stated that i didnt have that kind of money. My mum said that she would lend it to me, so we contacted the Western Union companyto pay this only to be made aware that where we were sending this money to was not where the company stated it was based.
Yes i was stupid not to realise in the first place but they stated they were based in Kirkwall Scotland and yet the money was being sent to a city called DOUALA in a country called CAMAROON, post code 0023.
They also had a credit card payment facility on their site that when tried to use it stated it was not able to process it.
However a few days later i found that what money i did have on my card, which thankfully is a top up credit card, had been taken. The name on the statement was linked to a pet site.
I did email thie pet company to have this looked into but as of yet they have not replied.
When i did refuse to pay the insurance the shippers were not too happy, i stated that i would come and pick up the puppy myself. The reply i got was when,and that everyday they hold the puppy it would cost me an extra 45.
After that i received an email stating that they could not send the puppy back to the seller as all pappers were now in my name and i was the owner. I was told that i was expected to make the payment that day or the puppy would be sent to the pets abandonment home.
I am gonna look into this further and hopefully try to find these people to stop them doing this to anyone else.
It is so wrong what they are doing and they should be stopped.

But what exactly is this seemingly natural tendency to sort others into "kinds"? This question forms the core of Us and Them, which explores the conscious and unconscious ways in which people classify one another--and more important--why. How humans can use this propensity constructively, rather than destructively, remains a central issue of our time, argues David Berreby, a veteran science journalist. Although this penchant may be hardwired into our brains, ultimately we choose how to live. Religious strife, political conflict and clan rivalries boil down to individual behavior.
Berreby says the sciences of brain and mind offer "a new way to look at love of country, at culture, at religion (and at hatred too)." Researchers are starting to understand "how and why people think and feel in tribes, and why all of us are capable of both tribal good and tribal evil." Advances are allowing scientists to grapple with such questions as "Why can't we all get along?" Berreby investigates the social, psychological and neurological mechanisms that move humans to categorize. For example, he considers how codes in the nervous system predispose us to organize perceptions, including ones that help us feel how other people feel. Science's assault on our beliefs about race, religion and nationalism has shown that even much of "common sense" is both blind and cruel. Berreby reminds us that not long ago North Americans held by common sense that slavery was natural, women should not vote and only heterosexuals deserved respect. "Good riddance to all that," he says. Still, attitudes die hard. "A white person and a black person in today's New York City can agree over coffee that race is `all in your mind,'" Berreby contends. "But when they leave Starbucks and raise their hands to hail a taxi, the white person is more likely to get a cab. In that moment, race is as real as gravity."
Given our drive to categorize, Berreby reflects thoughtfully on how to do so responsibly. "The Us-Them code does not own you," he concludes. "You own it."

The White Mountains (1967)
by John Christopher
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I read the whole series when I was a kid. I can still picture the racks at Midland Library where I picked them up. I re-read to see what it was I loved about them. I think the idea of escaping from thought control appealed to me as much then as now. It's a short read, it doesn't talk down, and it is very linear. Will have to order the others from Amazon. (Also, good camping read.)

(Also, good camping read.)
Tripods are cool, imagine these fearsome engines stomping around your neighborhood. They are not very practical though are they? Three legs don't seem to be a very stable locomotive arrangement. The aliens came from light years away can they not spring for some aircrafts or something on wheels? At least double the number of legs for God's sake!
When I first heard of this series I thought it was some kind of unofficial sequel to Wells' awesome classic [b: The War of the Worlds|497179|The Time Machine/The War of the Worlds|H.G. Wells|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1357744876s/497179.jpg|1156369]. Well, now I know it is not, but it is still a damn fine ripping yarn. The White Mountains depicts a future where alien overlords have been in charge of our planet for hundreds of years. This is not an origin story so we don't know what happened when the aliens showed up and how they subjugated the human race. To keep humans docile the aliens weld mind control caps on the adults' heads. The year when the story takes place is not mentioned, there is even a possibility that the tripods may be man-made rather than aliens. I imagine more will be revealed in subsequent volumes of this Tripods series.
The White Mountains is told from the point of view of Will, the thirteen-year-old protagonist. One day Will decides to run away from his home town to avoid the Tripods' "Capping" process when he comes of age. He is accompanied by Henry, a cousin he dislikes, but insists on going along, on their journey they are later joined by a bright French boy they call "Beanpole" because Will and Henry can't pronounce Jean Paul. Their destination is the eponymous White Mountain, where – Will is told by an apparently crazy old man – there is a community of rebellious "uncapped" people. The book is entirely about their perilous journey to this mountain.
I wish I had read this book as a wee lad of fourteen or younger I would have loved his book to bits and immediately read the remaining three volumes. As an adult reader I really enjoyed it but I wish it was more edgy and dark with lots of swearing! This series is generally regarded as children's books rather than YA. One thing it does have in common with modern YA books is that the setting is a dystopian with mankind under aliens' domination rather than some post-apocalypse government. I certainly prefer it to [b: The Hunger Games|2767052|The Hunger Games (The Hunger Games, #1)|Suzanne Collins|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1358275334s/2767052.jpg|2792775], kids being chased by giant tripods is much more exciting than kids being chased by other kids.
The book is very fast paced with something happening on every page, and there is not much in the way of dialogue. The characters are not developed very much but in a book under 200 pages in length that is forgivable. Certainly Will seems like a bit of an idiot most of the time, Henry vacillates back and forth from being callous to caring, and Beanpole is defined by his intellect only. The other characters they meet on their way just serve to help to move the story along. There is a palpable sense of danger when the kids are being chased by the tripods, but the ending seems terribly rushed.
Any way, I am on board for reading the rest of the series. I would love to know what happen next.
Rating: 5 stars for kids, 4 for adults!
"Massive alien machines called the Tripods had ruled Earth for hundreds of years and enslaved the minds and bodies of most adults through the silvery caps they made them wear. Determined to escape the ritual Capping ceremony, Will Parker runs away, heading for the distant White Mountains and the small rebel camp there, hoping to join their desperate attempts to overthrow the rule of the Tripods. The journey is long, the missions dangerous and the hopes of survival very slim…"
The year was 1993. I was 10 years old, and I was spending the weekend with my grandparents. Despite being a bookworm, I didn't bring any books with me, as I had been promised a trawl through my dad's old books. Little did I know that one book (or more accurately 3 books) would hold my attention more than the others, and remain in my 'favourites list' well into adulthood.
The White Mountains is the first book of the fantastic Tripod trilogy by John Christopher, published between 1967-1968. The version of the book I read actually collected the trilogy into one volume, allowing me to read the trilogy back-to-back like one long novel. The front and back cover had scenes from the TV series commissioned in the 1980s, which added a very retro feel to it (though it looks slightly dated now!).
The back cover specifically had a picture of one of the Tripods, which brings to mind the most famous of sci-fi novels featuring alien invasion, The War of the Worlds. As a young boy, an adventure sci-fi story like this was just what I was looking for, and this book didn't disappoint.
The Tripods – mysterious and frightening 3-legged mechanical monsters standing several stories high - rule the earth and have done for centuries. The origins of the Tripods is unknown initially, and any queries from inquisitive children is hushed by the already Capped adults.
All children are eventually are Capped, marking their progression into adulthood, which also surrenders their ability for free thought to the terrifying Tripods. It involves being pulled inside the body one of the machines by a long metal tentacle, and a metal mesh cap being placed on your head. There are sometimes complications with the process, resulting in Vagrants; men and women who experience a mental retardation, and who spend their remaining days speaking nonsense, and wandering from town to town.
The first book tells the story of Will Parker, a miller's son living in a small rural town called Wherton in England. Will's cousin Jack, who also is his only friend, on the eve of his own Capping poses some intriguing questions about the origin of the Tripods and the former greatness of the human race. However once Jack is capped, he no longer holds any opinions in this vein, and drifts apart from Will. As his own Capping ceremony grows closer, a now friendless Will begins to question his future under Tripod rule.
Enter Ozymandias; a mysterious new Vagrant in town who latches on to Will and begins to answer some of those burning questions Will has. There are still free-men, resistant to the Tripods rule, living in the fabled White Mountains; it lights a spark in Will. Realising there is nothing for him in Wherton, Will decides to journey to the mountains in search of answers.
Reluctantly he has to be accompanied on the journey by his other cousin Henry, who he despises. Henry's mother has recently died and has been living with Will's family, which is how Henry happens to follow Will on the night he leaves Wherton for good. Realising Henry could raise the alarm, Will accedes to him tagging along, although he will come to rely on Henry more than he ever thought possible. Along the way they add a young bespectacled boy called Beanpole to their clique, after he gets them out of a difficult situation early on.
I am re-reading this book at the age of 31 and time has not dulled my impressions of the book; I'm happy to state that it still fills me with the same excitement it did when I was a kid. While I grow older and my reading tastes grow ever more varied and challenging, I still like to escape every now and again to the books of my childhood. At nearly 50 years old, the story has a timeless quality for me, in the same way The Hobbit or the Narnia books have, and fully deserves its place alongside those classic books on my own bookshelf.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0689856725, Mass Market Paperback)Long ago, the Tripods--huge, three-legged machines--descended upon Earth and took control. Now people unquestioningly accept the Tripods' power. They have no control over their thoughts or their lives. But for a brief time in each person's life--in childhood--he is not a slave. For Will, his time of freedom is about to end--unless he can escape to the White Mountains, where the possibility of freedom still exists. The Tripods trilogy follows the adventures of Will and his cohorts, as they try to evade the Tripods and maintian their freedom and ultimately do battle against them. The prequel, When the Tripods Came, explains how the Tripods first invaded and gained control of the planet.

I contacted camping world corporate who said the dealer who installed it handled it. After a lot of Hem Ha, the Supervisor started then failed to honor the warranty. We are 500 or more miles away from any camping world and they failed to authorize a local dealer and failed to pay all the travel expenses and loss in pay to take the unit to one of their dealers. I filed with Consumer affairs & better business bureau. Bureau of auto affairs did an investigation where it ruled on my side. However, they can do nothing about this they only force correction on RV's with a motor and that you can drive. I would like to seek an attorney for our damages. Possibly all the electrical contents are damaged in the coach. Thus is is electrically total damage. We personally suffered immense fear then stress as a result of the incident. Our 10 year old and my husband and myself could have burned up. I have many of the documents supporting my claim and the coach is parked as I cannot afford to fix it.

Great product
Posted by Reviewer3041119 on Feb 06, 2014
This really cuts my sugar cravings. So far just taking 3 a day but may need to up the dose to 2 before dinner I get really hungry. Will buy again so far the best product I have ever used.
I didn't notice any difference
Posted by odereviews on Jan 27, 2014
It was nice to test this hyped PGX product for free. I didn't notice any difference to be honest. Tablets are large (but easy to swallow), size is pretty close to typical Omega 3 softgels. Cool looking tablets. This great freebie helped me to save money. :)
Don't see the benefit
Posted by 5224493059459981769 on Feb 12, 2014
I tried this product and do not see the benefit. It made me feel bloated and uncomfortable. It did not decrease my appetite, with the exception of perhaps not eating due to being uncomfortable. Perhaps I have enough fiber in my diet as it is and do not need this product. I did not take the recommended dose. I started with only one per day.
Hard to remember to take this
Posted by DeanaS on Feb 10, 2014
You have to remember to take this before a meal or it doesn't work. This is hard for me to do. It does help though, to not eat so much to get to satisfaction.

....and maybe clogged me up.....have only used a few days and a bit scared to use it again....
Works well

Found the product, does reduce hunger so far still only on 1/2 dose that was recommended to start with.
Great product
Posted by Reviewer3265929 on Mar 11, 2014
I take this before lunch and dinner, and I really feel like it is helping control my appetite (which is often out of control!) I feel like it works as well as other products that are marketed specifically for that purpose. Plus, added fibre can't be a bad thing! Amazing service from iherb, as usual, thank you.
Very good!!

On the outside it seems so professional and organized, but as someone who has worked with her I can tell you that it's just the opposite! Unprofessional, very disorganized, super long hours, and no pay!!!
Her workshops are nothing to be amazed with either. I attended 1 of her workshops... they are overpriced and you don't learn anything you can't learn on your own. Not worth it. She is in this business to make money, that's it. She doesn't care about who she scams and people's feelings. How many photographers do you know that take photos, do seminars, sell workshop packages, sell their photoshop actions, sell tutorials? she is just in it to make a quick dollar and doesn't care how she makes that happen.
Her photoshop actions are very generic something you can even figure out on your own with just trial and error. She rips off aspiring photographers who know nothing about the business, who see her from the outside thinking she can help them.... PLEASE BE CAREFUL !

It was very easy to shop for. great product. I would recommend it
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? yes
- How is the quality of the product? great
- Did the description onsite accurately describe the product? yes
These are very cheap and not a good choice for a kitchen that does any sort of actual cooking. They heat very unevenly, handles are very flimbsy...I mean yeah, you get what you pay for, but for the amount of cooking I do, these just do not stand a chance. Might be a good product for a kid going to college or something of that sort, but not for a household with kids or one that cooks a lot.
Not a good purchase. Returning tomorrow. Poorly made, quite thin, not what I expected.
I bought these for the my first set of pots. They serve the purpose, I would've liked the handles to be a little more sturdy but its not bad. They take well to high heat, cooks the food evenly. Shipping was wonderful, they were all secure in bubble wrap, it was delivered within the estimated time it was given. I would recommend these pots as a first set of pots or as an additional set. Great product for the price :)
Good value for the money but not made sturdy, If I had to do over again I would purchase a better constructed Pot & Pan set, The lid center section gets water in side and you have to take apart to clean it. All the pieces arrived in good shape from Overstock nothing bent or broken. I have not cooked with this set yet so I can not comment on that feature. Again I am not expecting much from these Pots and Pans but I may be surprised .
I love this set of cookware! They heat evenly, are easy to clean, and still look great after many uses! Also, many people complained about food sticking burning. I haven't had this problem yet, even when I made some homemade alfredo sauce on low heat. I definitely recommend this set, especially if you are looking for good cookware at a great price.
I really enjoy my cookware. They are durable and food heats very evenly. I just have to be careful with the glass lids.
I really enjoyed cooking with my stainless steel pan set. I give it a 5.
this set is actually better than i thought it would be, when i purchased it i thought to myself that i would have to replace it after a few months because of the price. I mean you cant get anything of quality these days without paying over 100 ...but boy was i wrong. I love the set, i don't cook very ofter but the few times that i've used it, i can say that i'm pleased.
I used my Blackstar stainless steel cookware set on the first day of its arrival. Doesn't require high heat to cook foods...Actually, I use low heat, and the foods don't have to cook longer than usual. Cookware is easy to clean. For the cost, this cookware is very good quality.
This was a gift to my daughter. She and her family love the pots and pans and are very happy with them! It was a great value.
I gave them as a Christmas gift to my mom who had been wanting some stainless steel cookware. She says she "LOVES THEM"!
My brother says the pans are nice; I haven't seen them. I ordered them for him on Dec. 16, 2009 as a Christmas gift, and Overstock guaranteed Christmas delivery, so imagine my chagrin when the pans were actually delivered Dec. 29. Overstock did refund 20% of my purchase price, but if I had to choose between ten bucks and my brother's gift arriving on time, I would choose timely arrival. VERY annoying, and I probably won't order from Overstock again because of it.
The cookware was a gift and liked by one who received it
This has to be the worst cookware I have ever purchased everything sticks to it, it does not come clean and it discolors very easily. I would not recomend it to people I dislike.
I like my new stainless steal pots and pans, they conduct the heat evenly with low heat. Water boils quicker, and foods cook evenly. It is a beautiful set of cookware for the price.
The "O" as always, has not let me down with their service.The product was a great value and works well,the cookware was a little thinner than I thought,but works as advertised.
Good pots!!! Good price as well!!
i guess it is good . it was given as a gift.
I love my new pots, worth cooking.

Give Dell a Second Chance
AUTHOR: Steve - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, September 03, 2008POSTED: Wednesday, September 03, 2008
Dell use to be ranked #1 for their customer service, however to remain competive like the other computer manufactures have outsourced their call centers overseas resulting in their once coveted # 1 rank down to like 5 0r 6.
In Dells begining. My first desktop that had a sound issue. After 5-10 minute on the phone it was determined my mother board went bad, however it was not the case. Before I recieved the new motherboard I reloaded some software and the sound came back on. The Tech was very helpfull and curtious and gave better service than I expected.
Fast forward a few years, Again purchased another desktop: No major problems, however I needed to call tech support for a minor issue, I dont recall what it was.
The tech on the line was from south central asia, India Pakistan or India. I had a very hard time understanding the person on the phone and was really getting frustrated and very mad that Dell outsourced the tech support. Nonetheless after calming my self down I asked the guy on the phone if I could speak to an English Speaking or American and right away I was connected to an American.

Liverpool showed their tenacity against Manchester City on Boxing Day, with some exhilarating counter-attacking football. Despite losing 2-1 to City, they will be buoyed by their performance against The Citizens and head to Stamford Bridge confident of getting three points.
The home side sit two points off Premier League leaders Arsenal, who they drew with earlier in the month, and they recently beat Swansea 1-0. Yet Mourinho's Chelsea are yet to hit top gear this season. A lack of strike options has plagued recent performances, something Mourinho will be looking to resolve come the January transfer window. There is a definite sense at Stamford Bridge that there is more to come in the New Year.
Brendan Rodgers has guided Liverpool to 11 wins this year and has instilled an attacking brand of football at the club that has bagged them 43 goals so far. His side are only three points off the pace this year and even without the likes of Steven Gerrard are managing to produce strong performances. Luis Suarez has been key so far this season and will be looking to get on the score sheet after failing to score against Man City.
FFC Predicts: Chelsea 1-2 Liverpool
Liverpool have been playing the better football this year and Suarez's form has been formidable. Chelsea lack a player like Suarez so have to rely on their midfield options to bag the goals. Liverpool's form suggests they can take this one.
Chelsea v Liverpool Pre-Match Stats
Chelsea have lost three and won just one of their last five Barclays Premier League home meetings with the Reds (D1).
Luis Suarez scored a second-half equaliser in both Barclays Premier League meetings with Chelsea last season.
Chelsea have won only two of their last 13 Premier League encounters with Liverpool (W2 D4 L7)
Five of Chelsea's last seven Premier League wins against Liverpool have come under Jose Mourinho.
Liverpool have scored 29 goals in their last 14 trips to London in the Premier League (2.07 per game)
Liverpool have conceded a total of only three goals in their last nine end-of-year games.
The Reds have scored more goals in 2013 than any other Premier League side (83).
No player has created more goalscoring chances in the Premier League in 2013-14 than Eden Hazard (46, level with Samir Nasri).
Luis Suarez (29 goals in 27 appearances in 2013) needs one more goal to become only the 7th player to reach the 30-goal mark in a calendar year in the Premier League era.
Chelsea have never lost a Premier League home game under Jose Mourinho, but when the original unbeaten run continued after he left Chelsea in 2007, Liverpool were the team who ended it (October 2008).
