Live radio broadcasts such as The Grand Ole Opry, The Louisiana Hayride and The Renfro Valley Barn Dance were instrumental in building careers and shaping country music in the pre-war years of the 20th century. MUSIC CITY ROOTS is the torchbearer for that legacy, carrying the radio broadcast tradition into the 21st century. To the virtually-minded, the idea of putting on a live, multi-artist music show…on a week night…in a renovated barn 25 minutes from downtown Nashville…might seem a bit misguided, if not simply too "last century", but to the contrary, MUSIC CITY ROOTS is one of the hottest tickets in Music City these days. Every Wednesday night at the Loveless Barn, just behind the legendary Loveless Café (and at the head of the historic Natchez Trace), 400 music fans turn out to hear live music from legends and newcomers alike, presented in grand ole radio style, and hosted by Jim Lauderdale with WSM radio legend Keith Bilbrey and NPR journalist Craig Havighurst.
Since its first broadcast just 2 years ago, Music City Roots has been launching careers, earning fans and building community throughout the roots music world. The sounds of this happening have been heard by the lucky live audience and local radio listeners of WRLT as well as by millions over the internet. Now, in an effort to document their success to date and spread the good word even further, Music City Roots is releasing their first compilation, ROOTS MOMENTS (Season 1). Featured on the recording are live performances from Jim Lauderdale, Charlie Louvin, Nanci Griffith, Mike Farris, and 18 South (featuring Jesse Alexander, John Randall, Mike Bub, Jimmy Wallace, Guthrie Trapp, Larry Atamanuik), as well as the now legendary Music City Roots jam, the evening's closing event and always a highlight.

So I saw my OB on Friday this past week. I asked her about gaining weight and unfortunately heard something a bit disheartening.
I am slightly overweight - about 10-15 pounds I think. She said that for my weight, I should target gaining no more than 10 pounds in all and also said that it would be hard for me. Ugh. Its not necessarily surprising, but at the same time was a bit upsetting for me to hear (which I am sure was not my OB's intention, especially since she didn't even bring up the weight issue, I did).
I have struggled with weight for a while so this is not exactly what I wanted to hear. I am 15 weeks today and have only put on 2-3 pounds so far but am terrified that I am going to end up unhealthily obese at the end of this pregnancy.
Anyone who's in or been in a similar situation who'd like to share their experience?

"Congratulations to our 2013 scholarship recipients. We look forward to their contributions to the field of agriculture."
Each applicant answered an essay question about the biggest challenge facing sugarbeet production and shared ideas to address the problem. Applications were evaluated for creativity, flow and professional appeal. The winners were chosen out of 32 applicants, all with an involvement in 4-H and/or the National FFA Organization (formerly Future Farmers of America). Each winner was awarded $1,500 for his or her college tuition.

A judge on American Idol who is known for being brutally honest towards contestants. However, little do people know that Mr. Cowell is simply playing a role; he is often considered to be the 'bitchy one' out of the trio which people either love him or hate him for.
Simon is often worshipped by naive tweens for being 'harsh' or 'badass', when in reality he is only a token critic.

Simon Cowell himself even admitted that part of his antics were for sheer publicity reasons, not because he actually cared about giving a proper critique.

Victim pays $200 for an Apple iPad in a gas station parking lot that turns out to be a mirror
0. phoneArena 11 Nov 2012, 03:49 posted on
Why would you buy an Apple iPad from someone trying to sell it to you in a gas station parking lot; Jalonta Freeman found out the hard way when she found out that the tablet she paid $200 for was really a mirror...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here

Well, there is no much of a difference between this mirror and a real iPad.
she should've bought an android tablet or surface!!

And maybe it's the real iPad, iOS pre-'un'installed, unlocked version...
You get 'reality'display...no lag, no buttons...just the Apple logo and the super reflective surface.

Yeah, I think a $200 premium for just the Apple logo is about current market price.

I love that the salesman used a mirror. As she's peeling off the stickers she can see exactly what someones face looks like when they realize they've just been had, and the realization that they're a moron.

would be cool if YOU GUYS......phone arena, could help her out by giving her a free ipad just to show some remorse for her loss...
17. KParks23 (Posts: 621; Member since: 13 Oct 2010)
Why would they give sum1 a free ipad for being a Dumbass... If ur stupid enough to buy a "ipad" at a gas station for 200$ in a FedEx box from a guy who says hurry up he in a hurry and has to leave with out looking at it and opening the box its ur own damn fault what a IDIOT!
26. XPERIA-KNIGHT (unregistered)
It has happened to all us bro no need to act like we are smarter than someone else............what do i mean by "happened to all of us"? I mean we all at some point have been lied to....and since phone arena wants to rush and broadcast ANOTHER misfortune like this, maybe they should do something good and receive more "praise" for helping that "victim" out..........last time i checked, they do give away prizes to people so how could this hurt them anyway? I bet that women would be happy as long as they make sure to tell her to look out for scammers like this next time then i dont see no harm in giving her a new tablet
28. KParks23 (Posts: 621; Member since: 13 Oct 2010)
We all have been lied to.. but not many people would be naive enough to believe something as dumb as this circumstance.. she got what's coming to her in my book I have no pity for anyone like that!
29. XPERIA-KNIGHT (unregistered)
Maybe she did but it still wouldnt hurt to help someone then tell them to be careful next time bro........those scammers are the ones to be mad at if anything man
35. KParks23 (Posts: 621; Member since: 13 Oct 2010)
No people who break into ur house are people to be mad at people that murder and rob.. Not some guy driving around in a geo metro selling FedEx boxes with who knows what's in side it. he didn't force her to give him the money and ur telling me she didn't see anything suspicious with this whole thing. I would of told him open it up and let me see or laughed in his face just like the other 99% of the population so like I said no pity at all for this dummy! If she said anything like that this dude would of rolled out no problem but no he said I got a ipad 200$ she said where he holds box up she get s money and he leaves its hilarious that's exactly how it had to go down!

People that buy cheap electronics on the streets thinking its legit ARE STUPID THEY DON'T THINK they only think HOW CHEAP THE ITEM IS and is stupid
34. PAPINYC (banned) (Posts: 2315; Member since: 30 Jul 2011)
They give prizes to people but, it's always something they, themselves, do not want and they never give out iPads. Instead, they keep all the "demo" review units they receive from Apple and hang them on their walls or use them as giant coasters in their living rooms to impress the flock when they gather. i, For one, would love an iPad 1, 2, 3, 3⅓, 4 as a gift as, I would really like to see what my gorgeous face looks like during a FaceTime™ call on wi-fi; I understand that wi-fi does something mAgical to one's face and I would like to experience that "mAgic" first hand.
44. longhorn1127 (Posts: 2; Member since: 28 May 2009)
Your right, just give ANYONE a new iPad if they make a mistake. NO ONE should ever take responsibility for their own actions.
61. Droiddoes (unregistered)
Actually no, that has never happened to me nor anyone I know. Myself, and the members of my family/friend group, no better than to buy apples overpriced novelty crap in the first place. We also know damn well not to buy electronics from a strange man at the local gas station UHDUUURR.
F*ck her yo, I don't feel any sympathy whatsoever. A fool and their money...
67. 90ninjas (unregistered)
Yes, I've been lied to. No, I've never been that idiotic to buy something at 1/4 the cost in a shady scenario. PhoneArena is not entitled to do anything and certainly not anything that would seemingly raise their reputation. The lady made a big mistake that could have been completely avoided if she just used common sense. That's it.
62. 14545 (Posts: 1545; Member since: 22 Nov 2011)
WHY? FOR BEING AN IDIOT? You have to be kidding me. You don't reward stupidity, you reward hard work. How about we give the top 5 graduates in the closest state school to PA free ipads. That would make more sense, THEY actually earned something. I doubt this woman has a HS degree if she was dumb enough to A) purchase this to begin with and B) purchase this and NOT EVEN CHECK TO SEE IF IT WORKS before handing over money to the would be thief. If she had at minimum opened it up to check it's functionality, then she would have known that it wasn't real and never lost a dime.

Although its unfortunate for her, I do have to say that its her fault. One thing anyone should always do if purchasing from craiglist is getting proof it works before handing the other person money. They should always personally check themselves that their product works, even if its a wrapped product.

I am writing in response to John Creveling's column on gun control from the Friday, Jan. 25, 2013, edition of the Sierra Sun.
Mr. Creveling compares guns to cars as his reasoning for why there should not be any reform to gun legislation. I would like to point out the glaring flaw in Mr. Creveling's logic. As he states: a gun is "an inanimate object ... put together by human beings to serve a purpose." The sole purpose of a gun is to kill living things, whether that be ducks, deer or people. The sole purpose of a car on the other hand, is to transport people or things. Despite the killing potential of a car, this is under no circumstances its purpose. I cannot imagine a more greater disparity in "purpose" - thus the total lack of logic in Mr. Creveling's argument.
Secondly, Mr. Creveling writes about the Founding Fathers and the Second Amendment as reasons against updated gun legislation. I have heard this argument countless times in the weeks following the Sandy Hook murders. I am amazed that the obvious must be pointed out: When the Second Amendment was composed, automatic assault weapons (and their incredible killing potential) were not remotely within the realm of imagination.
Nobody is proposing "we give up the right to protect ourselves under the Second Amendment" as Mr. Creveling states. I am simply suggesting a long, hard look at whether assault-style weapons and high-capacity magazines should continue to be readily available to the average citizen. Sensible gun legislation in America is tragically overdue.

Old Fort Fire Department Engineer John "J.J." Johnston feels so strongly about fighting breast cancer that he shocked the station, including the chief, when he arrived last October with a head of pink-dyed hair.
Want to help?
Old Fort Fire Department Engineer John "J.J." Johnston is walking the two-day, 39.3-mile Avon Walk for Breast Cancer on May 4 and 5 in almost full gear.He hopes to raise $1,800. As of Wednesday, $750 had been pledged.If you want to donate, go to www.avonwalk.org/ and search for "John Johnston" or visit http://bit.ly/11BXSyY.
He chuckles when recalling that the dye job lasted for weeks past Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
But the pink hairdo is not nearly as radical as his latest endeavor.
The 40-year-old father of two plans to walk the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer, 39.3 miles in two days, on May 4 and 5 in Washington, D.C., in his fire gear (sans boots).
The gear — his jacket, bunker pants, air pack and pink helmet — weighs about 80 pounds and can get rather stuffy. Sweat and rain can add another 20 pounds.
"I'm very excited about the event," says Johnston, who wants to raise a modest $1,800 for the effort. "I've never done anything like this, but I feel very confident I can do it."
The drive
Johnston, who has walked the Komen Lowcountry Race for the Cure in gear the past two years, is compelled to near self-torture for two very big reasons.
First, he lost his father, Floyd Johnston, a Marine for 30 years, to liver cancer in 2007. Then the firefighter watched his neighbor, Michelle Kelley, and her young family suffer from the effects of breast cancer for more than three years before she died on Oct. 24, 2011, at the age of 31.
The date happened to be National Pink Ribbon Day in 2011.
Her husband, Mike Kelley, remains traumatized from the experience, which included 18 surgeries, chemotherapy, radiation, more than 50 hospitalizations, and an uncountable number of trips to the emergency room.
"We had a perfect life before breast cancer," says Kelley of a family with three kids, a nice home in Summerville and a prosperous career. "It vanished after cancer."
Kelly finds comfort in the effort that Johnston puts into Komen and now Avon.
Firefighter DNA?
Old Fort Fire Chief Ed Genthert doesn't seem too surprised by Johnston's endeavor, except for last year's pink hair display.
"One thing about firefighters, we're all very human," says Genthert of their tendency to go the extra mile to help those in need.
"Jay (J.J.) has some really strong convictions, and we support that when firefighters dedicate themselves to public service for this amount of time. They lose a lot of family time. Then they turn around and support charities and efforts of other firefighters."
About 10 crew members of Old Fort have joined Johnston on his Komen walks the past two years and have raised about $100 for his Avon walk.
"We fully support Jay's efforts. It's a marvelous thing," Genthert says.
Back in D.C.
Johnston chose the Avon Walk in Washington because his mother still lives there and he wants to pay a visit to his father's gravesite in Quantico, Va.
"He was a great guy and I miss him," says Johnston.
He also looks forward to attending the opening ceremony for the Avon Walk on May 3 and staying in the pink tents of a "wellness village" in Bethesda, Md.
"From what I gather, it's very nice. The atmosphere is electric. They say it's once-in-a-lifetime," says Johnston, noting that it may motivate him to work even harder.

Anti-doping officials do athlete outreach during competitions (Photo: Nenad Dikic)The UIAA Anti-Doping Commission assists member associations to implement the Code and the Anti-Doping Policy and Procedure. The Anti-Doping Commission is responsible for managing the UIAA's responsibilities for the Code including:
- Registered Testing Pool
- Doping Violation Procedure
The UIAA adopts and implements the World Anti-Doping (WADA) Programme in its entirety and is responsible for ensuring that all its member associations and athletes respect and comply with the Code, all relevant International Standards and all the principles inherent to the Code.
Athletes participating in UIAA approved competitions, and other competitions run by UIAA member associations, are responsible for complying with the World Anti-Doping Code ("the Code") and all relevant International Standards. All athletes have a right to enjoy competitions that are properly organised under rules that aim to ensure fairness and prevent doping.
Member Associations are responsible for complying with the Code and the UIAA Anti-Doping Policy and Procedure. Member Associations will make agreements in writing with athletes that confirms the athletes' support for the Anti-Doping Policy and Procedure and the other UIAA rules and regulations.
Court of Arbitration for Sport
UIAA affirms the belief of WADA & UNESCO that education is a central theme of any programme to remove doping from sports. A successful programme of Anti Doping worldwide can only be successful with adequate education of athletes and the whole sporting community. UIAA firmly believes that athletes and their support system should be well aware of all rights, obligations, Anti-Doping precautions, methods, doping control system and prohibitive substances etc. It also reiterates that athletes should be aware of consequences of doping not just in terms of doping code violations and disciplinary measures thereof, but also about the health hazards caused due to doping substances.
UIAA with help of WADA and other Anti-Doping agencies will raise awareness about Anti Doping in the mountaineering community. UIAA and its member associations are committed to provide the ideal environment for 'fair play' and educate every member of the mountaineering community about the harm from doping to the sport and the individual concerned.
Here you will find a number of resources published by WADA to help athletes understand the dangers and consequences of doping, as well as their responsibilities under the World Anti-Doping Code (Code).
- WADA Model Guidelines for Educational Programme
- Video doping control in competition
- Video doping control out of competition
- Athletes Guide
- Anti-Doping Glossary
- Coach's Tool Kit
- Two children's books which provide the
reader with the ability to explore decisions about doping, both good and bad,
without suffering the real life consequences.
UIAA abides by the WADA standard for testing and testing procedures. All athletes affiliated with a National Federation shall be subject to In-Competition Testing by UIAA, the Athlete's National Federation, and any other Anti-Doping Organisation responsible for testing at a competition or event in which they participate. All athletes affiliated with a National Federation shall also be subject to Out-of-Competition testing at any time or place, with or without advance notice, by UIAA, WADA, the Athlete's National Federation, the National Anti-Doping Organisation of any country where the athlete is present.

Any reports regarding the fundraiser in Cleveland? did it happen, was Czisny there...???
This is from an IN article just posted today:
Alissa Czisny, who won her first of two national titles in Cleveland in 2009, performed even though she is still recuperating from a hip injury and had just returned to training in September.
"It's such an honor to be a part of this show," said Czisny, who was her usual exquisite self but struggled with her jumps. "I'm getting better. This is the first time I have really done anything. It hasn't been an easy process but hopefully, I will be ready for NHK [Trophy] (Nov. 23-25)."
^thanks. This doesn't sound great for this season, but I do wish her the very best as she recovers and builds. So here's hoping we see her at NHK!
Alissa USFS biography still lists both her programs as "TBD". Her ISU biography lists:
I take this to mean that if she skates this year, she mayl use the La Vie en Rose SP again, but there is absolutely no clue out that what she would use for an LP.Music Short Program / Short Dance as of season2012/2013
La Vie En Rose arranged by John Williams
La Vie En Rose Compilation
Music Free Skating / Free Dance as of season2012/2013
Valse Triste by Jean Sibelius
(information from 2011/12 season)
I have not considered any of this info definitive enough to add it to the Programs thread.
It sounds as if Alissa is seriously considering skating at NHK. If she's still struggling with her jumps in early November, Alissa isn't going to make much of an improvement in a couple of weeks. But then she went to 2012 Worlds anyway after a disastrous showing at an International B. IMO, Alissa will further damage her reputation with ISU judges if she skates poorly at NHK.
If she does withdraw, it will probably be too late for a replacement.
16 days to NHK. I hope Alissa does not attend if she is still struggling and not ready.
I agree if she isn't ready she shouldn't go. And really if she is struggling this much on Nov 6 she should give up the spot and hopefully someone else can use it ie. Nagasu or better yet Osmond. But we live in a world where everyone is out for themselves so I can see Alissa holding on to the dream at the cost of some other deserving skater. Besides ironically by possibly keeping Osmond out she may help some other skater get into the GPF.
This does not sound promising to me at all, and I (while not a Czisny fan exactly) am someone who actually enjoys her skating and did defend her after Nationals and Worlds last year.
Yeah, 2 months of training really doesn't seem long enough to get yourself in peak condition, but I do agree that it might help her to have a competition before nationals. Mirai has competed twice this season internationally and isn't going to make the GPF anyway, so I am ok with Alyssa going even if she bombs.
Czisny is scheduled to perform on Sat Nov 10 in Phoenix in the Pandora Unforgettable Holiday Moments on Ice show, according to the Facebook page and website of Disson Skating.
The show will air nationally on NBC on Sunday, November 25, 4:00 p.m. ET. "Check your local listings."
Last edited by ice coverage; 11-08-2012 at 01:28 AM.
Well if she is skating in all these shows maybe this is cutting into her training time. I know the issue may be money. Still if she is struggling with her double axel according to reports maybe she isn't ready.
IF I were Alissa, I would sit out this season and recuperate fully, do light training and enjoy and do some shows, then think about the olympic season next fall - seems more sensible

Radon Awareness Event (2 of 2) – Blackman Township
State Rep. Mike Shirkey is sponsoring two radon awareness town hall events on Aug. 21-22 in Jackson County to give local residents the chance to learn more about the health risks associated with elevated indoor radon levels and ways to protect themselves and their families. Jackson County is one of nine counties in Michigan with the highest potential for elevated radon levels, according to the federal government. The town halls take place at the Super 8 Brooklyn, 419 S. Main St., Brooklyn, from 5-7 p.m. on Aug. 21; and at the Blackman Charter Township Hall, 1990 W. Parnall Road, Blackman Township, from 5-7 p.m. on Aug. 22.
Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S., accounting for more than 20,000 deaths per year. Jackson County has been designated as a Zone 1 county, which means it has the highest potential for elevated radon levels. The Michigan Indoor Radon Program in conjunction with the Jackson County Health Department also will provide 100 free radon test kits to event attendees.
People do not need to RSVP. For more information, contact Shirkey's office at (517) 373-1775, or e-mail him at email@example.com.

HOOVER, Ala. — Oh, those unconventional Georgia Bulldogs.
Georgia vs. Clemson
When: Aug. 31, 8 p.m.
Where: Memorial Stadium, Clemson
Georgia vs. South Carolina
When: Sept. 7, 4:30 p.m.
Where: Sanford Stadium, Athens
Lose to South Carolina early in the season.
But wind up in Atlanta playing in the SEC championship game each of the last two years.
Quarterback Aaron Murray is a respected senior leader on the verge of becoming Georgia's career passing leader — with a 3-9 record against ranked opponents.
The funky beat goes on.
South Carolina All-Planet defensive end Jadeveon Clowney, 2-0 against both Georgia and Clemson, labeled Murray and Tigers quarterback Tajh Boyd "scared" earlier this week at SEC Media Days.
Murray made it clear Thursday. He is more concerned about Georgia's Aug. 31 season opener at Clemson than the big, bad ESPY Award winner.
"I'm not worried about it," Murray said of Clowney's blast. "I respect the dude. He's really an unbelievable football player."
If Georgia-Clemson isn't a top 10 matchup, it will be real close. It's a "Gameday" natural, an 8 p.m. kickoff on WCIV/ABC.
"Our guys are very excited about the start of the season," said Murray, who enters his fourth season as a starter. "Definitely, it's pushed us to work even harder. We need to be in midseason form at the start of the season."
Richt: 'I'd be scared'
True, a loss at Clemson casts extra doubt on Murray's ability to win big games.
And a loss just motivates the Bulldogs for their Sept. 7 game against Clowney and Co.
"There's a difference between fear and respect," Murray went on about Clowney. "If I'm worried about the defensive line, I'm not doing my job."
Mark Richt had a perfect Clowney response.
"I don't know about those guys in particular," the Georgia head coach said of Murray and Boyd, "but I would think some guys are scared of him. I'd be scared of him if I was in the game."
Richt praised Murray as a "365-day-a-year quarterback" who does charity work, trains hard, eats to prepare, signs autographs, gets good grades. The 6-1, 208-pound Murray this summer has been an unofficial player-coach, coordinating "voluntary" workouts and rewarding productive teammates with dinners.
"The reason I came back," Murray said, "is to win championships."
Ideally, the SEC quest starts with a streak-snapping victory against the dominant but perplexed Gamecocks.
Ask Connor Shaw.
"It's frustrating," the Gamecocks quarterback said Tuesday. "We beat Georgia the last couple years, but we just couldn't win the big games after that."
Backfield power
Murray set Georgia single-season records with 3,893 passing yards and a 174.8 rating in 2012. He's 627 yards behind David Greene's school career passing yards record. Murray is second in SEC career touchdown passes with 95 (Florida's Danny Wuerffel threw 114).
Running back stats, though, project as the key to Georgia's 2013 success. Murray on Thursday was the third-team quarterback on the All-SEC Preseason Team selected at SEC Media Days (behind Texas A&M's Johnny Manziel and Alabama's A.J. McCarron). Running backs Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall were first-team and second-team, respectively.
It's the first time Murray has had a starting running back return, and they will run behind an offensive line with five starters back.
Conventional wisdom says those guys must carry a defense that lost nine starters.
"I don't think I have to carry them at all," Murray said. "They're very talented. I think they're going to be great."
If so, Georgia is a legit national title contender.
We'll see Aug. 31 at Clemson.
And if Georgia loses, Murray will get another chance to win against a ranked team the following week when Clowney visits Athens.

That is definitely not the truth about soy:
I don't eat soy. There are several reasons: I don't like it. I'm slightly intolerant. And when I did try eating it while going through menopause, it exacerbated all of my symptoms. So, I avoid it.
I'm not a huge fan of the WAPF, but Robbins, Barnard, Fuhrman and others are equally as guilty of using scare tactics and promoting faulty science. The China Study is a great example of faulty science!
There's a ton of dietary misinformation out there, and it's not all coming from WAPF.
The chickpea salad recipe looks tasty. I've been making something similar for 10+ years, only mine has red bell pepper, cucumber and scallions in it as well. I've taken it to numerous potlucks and there is almost never any left over.
As always, thanks for the linkage. :)
Very interesting article on soy...
And the expiration date discussions always make me laugh - I want to print them out and show them to Steve so he doesn't wrinkle his nose at me using the milk 4 or 5 days after the sell by date (it's FINE!).
Great article on soy. Thanks for the time writing this article.

The key to good grilling is in the heat, a Duncansville meat market manager said.
And, with the summer quickly approaching, the temperature is about to rise, making it the ideal time for tying on your "Kiss the Grill Master" apron and taking up a barbecue spatula that reflects the glint of glee in your eye.
Of course, Holland Brothers Meats Manager Brock Holland was referring to the temperature one should raise their grill to before slapping down a few T-bones, hamburger patties or sausages this picnic season.
Article Photos
"I prefer searing, yeah. Get the grill good and hot - 400 degrees," he said. "It locks in the flavor, the juices, when you sear on both sides."
That goes for mostly steaks, but it works for "pretty much anything," he said.
Not fussing with the steaks while they're grilling is great advice, he said. "If you know your grill, you should know what to expect," he said.
Fact Box
Recommended internal temperatures for meats
* Ground beef hamburgers, 160 degrees Fahrenheit. Cooking ground beef until the pink is gone is not always an indicator of thorough cooking as it can still be pink inside and cooked to a safe temperature. Color is not always a true indicator.
* Ground and whole poultry, 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
* Chops, steaks and roasts from beef, veal or lamb, 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium rare, 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium and 170 degrees Fahrenheit for well done.
* Pork chops and roast, 150 degrees Fahrenheit.
* Fin fish, 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
* Shrimp, lobster and crabs, cook until the flesh is pearly and opaque.
Source: Giant Food Stores and Martin's Food Markets
Holland likes to let the meat's flavor be the main attraction.
"And as far as a marinade goes, I like to keep it simple with marinade. Sometimes a little zesty Italian dressing, a little salt and pepper. Keep it simple."
He personally likes "the zesty Italian dressing because it's got a little bit of a zip to it," he said. "I like doing that with my chicken and some of my steaks too, but mainly a little salt and pepper."
The grill isn't just for meat, said a press release from Giant Food Stores and Martin's Food Markets.
"The heat of the grill caramelizes the natural sugars, resulting in loads of flavor without the need for added sugar, salt or fat," it said.
The stores in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia, with headquarters in Carlisle, will offer produce from nearby farms, the release said.
Giant Food Stores and Martin's Food Markets has served up a side of food preparation safety tips this season to go with your grilling menu.
* Rinse fresh fruit and vegetables under running tap water, including those with skins and rinds that are not eaten. Use a separate cutting board for fresh produce to avoid cross-contamination.
* Keep marinating meat in the refrigerator. Set aside some marinade before placing any raw meat, poultry or seafood in it, if you intend to use it as a sauce later. The sauce used to marinate a protein should be discarded and not reused.
* Food partially cooked in the microwave before grilling should be grilled immediately. Insert a meat thermometer halfway into the thickest part of the meat to check if it has reached a hot enough temperature to avoid harmful bacteria such as E. coli. The thermometer should take about 15 to 20 seconds to give a reading.
* Wash your hands, cutting boards, dishes and utensils with hot soapy water after working with raw proteins such as meat, poultry, seafood or eggs. Use clean plates and utensils to serve food.
* Refrigerate leftovers within two hours after cooking. Refrigerators should be set to maintain a product temperature of 40 degrees Fahrenheit or lower. When the temperature outside reaches above 90 degrees Fahrenheit, do not leave food out more than hour. When in doubt, throw it out. Reheat leftovers until steaming.
"It's just the same as cooking, but sometimes grilling can be deceiving, said John MacDonald, director of marketing and communications for the Giant and Martin stores. "It's about the temperature that the meat gets to and not really about how you perceive the color of doneness. So we always emphasize to our customers and just as a reminder to them as grilling season comes in that they should take the temperature of the meat so that they know that it's done and it's safe to eat."

St. John Sheriff's Office DARE Officer
Sgt. Marshall Carmouche
985-652-7058 or 985-359-8754
Email Sgt. Carmouche
About DARE
Part of the reason D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) works so well is because it is a collaborative effort between the St John Sheriff's Office, your school, parents, and community leaders. D.A.R.E. works because it surrounds children with support and encouragement from all sides.
D.A.R.E. teaches kids how to recognize and resist the direct and subtle pressures that influence them to experiment with alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, and other drugs. Kids also learn ways to be in charge and hot to recognize and resist peer pressure. Lessons are taught on how to deal with a bully and how to avoid bullying. And since between 70% and 90% of all crime is drug related, it is absolutely vital that we reach the children of America before it is too late.
The D.A.R.E. program is usually introduced to children in the 5th grade. A specially trained officer comes into your school one day a week for seventeen weeks and teaches the children. The D.A.R.E. curriculum is designed to integrate easily into school lesson plans. Student participation in the D.A.R.E. program may be incorporated as an integral part of the school's curriculum in health, science, social studies, language arts, or other subjects. The classroom teacher maintains a supportive role in classroom management while the officer is teaching. And, finally, D.A.R.E. program participation by students is incorporated as a fundamental part of the students' final evaluation.
DARE Officers Training
D.A.R.E. Officers attend a rigorous and demanding training where professors from Louisiana Colleges' teach officers how to be teachers. Mentors teach how to present the lessons in the D.A.R.E. curriculum.
Sgt. Hoover who has been St. John's Dare Officer since February 1992, has been with the Sheriff's Office since Sept 1990. Sgt. Marshall Carmouche has been a Dare Officer since July 2008, and has been with the department since April 1995. Deputy Cindy Faucheux became a Dare Officer in August 2011, and has been with the department since February 2009, assigned to the Community Relations Division.
Sgt. Hoover, Sgt. Carmouche, and Deputy Faucheux will be instructing the Dare Curriculum to students in St. John Schools in the coming year.

The Journey to Our Land
Kevin Stevens is a Class C certified Contractor living and working in Colorado. He is also working on his own tiny house project in Northern New Mexico. He has been following various aspects of the tiny house movement for years.
quest for our land was a quest to find more seasonal balance in our lives. N
Last year we had snow just up the hill from us in the middle of August. We have also watched the fireworks on the 4th of July from inside the living room as a light snow was falling. It is one of the hardships we endure by living at over 8000 feet. However, the mild summers, 300+ sunny days a year and hearing cougars and coyotes on a summer night do their part to make up for it.
View from our ranch at night
Tori and I have been attracted to the desert, me for quite a few years
more. Road trips to
land searching began online with some local real estate listings. A few months of looking gave us an idea of
what was available, we printed some listings, found them on maps and with
Google Earth looked to see what the area landscape might be. I also got in touch with a local real estate
agent there. In November of 2009 our
quest took on some more texture via a road trip, on the way also checked out
some areas in
The price was in our budget, and the community was interesting (We spent an afternoon at "Poco Loco" the local market / hangout for a neighborhood post Halloween celebration.) Unfortunately the entry to the lot had some "trashy" neighbors. The road in, which would be our future driveway, had huge piles of junk near it, bottles, cans, misc. construction stuff, old building projects etc. We could just not bear to have to drive past that every day. We spent that night camping nearby on some forest service land. I called up our agent and arranged to meet her the next day for some more property tours.
After hooking up with Liz, we toured some more vacant land and also some homes located on some area parcels. Late in the afternoon we hooked up with Gil and Deb for a tour of one of the four, twenty-acre parcels they had for sale, they were friends of Liz from years past and had not yet officially listed these lots.
The lot that we had the most interest in was the one furthest from the highway and it had some rock outcroppings along the southern edge. We liked it but were not that impressed. The 80 acres they had for sale was part of their larger ranch there- about 720 acres total. After we looked at the end parcel Gil wanted to show us the Petaca which lies just east of their square mile. On the way to the overlook we saw an interesting smaller side canyon and I asked if we could check it out. We hiked up through there and were very impressed with it. We threw the idea out there that we liked that area more. Ater touring the overlook we took the ATV's across the road and back into some cool nearby forest service land. (I forgot to mention that nearby access to public land was also a selection criteria for us).
They wined and dined us that night in one of their cabins across the road, put us up for the night and let us borrow the ATVs again the next day. This time with the aide of their old but somewhat accurate property map we checked out the area that impressed us the day before. This area was quite a bit larger than we were originally thinking, about 40 acres (the first "trashy" place was only 7 acres- one of the earth ship properties was 12; Gill and Debs other lots 20) The beauty and peacefulness of it took hold of us. We had found our place! We believe that certain areas have a type of magnetism for some people: Tori and I call this "The Magic of Place"- we spent the later part of that afternoon working with Liz to write up an offer.
Well, as they say in the movies the rest is history! We now own just under 42 acres of diverse: PJ with an abundance of Sagebrush ; )
Stay tuned for more on Kevin and Tori's project!

Super convenient location. Very close to Wan Chai subway station, tram stop, pretty close to the bus stop to the Airport, no problem if you have a big suitcase.
You can find convenience stores, banks, wonton noodle shop, congee shop, drug store, local market, restaurants, modern interior shops, famous egg tart shop, etc, etc in a walking distance.
It's in the middle of the busy market, but once you are in the apartment, it was very quiet.
You can find all the basic things you need, such as fridge, washing machine, shower with a bathtub, clean towels.
Bed rooms are very small, but it didn't bothered us as we were there just for sleeping.
Wan is very quick to respond and sent me all the necessary information beforehand.
I would love to come back next time I visit HK.
The apartment was comfortable for 2 people. The water heater heated quickly for hot showers and the bedding was comfortable. It was nice to have internet access that was quick and cooking utensils to heat leftovers. I loved the neighborhood and being so close to shops and markets as well as the tram and MTR stations couldn't be beat. Communication with Wan prior to the trip and during was excellent. I would be very happy to stay here again.
A very helpful person.
Wir waren zu dritt eine Woche zu Gast in Wan's Wohnung und waren sehr begeistert sowohl von der Lage als auch von der Sauberkeit. Für drei Personen war die Unterkunft perfekt geeignet, die Umgebung war ruhig und angenehm und trotzdem mitten im ursprünglichen Markt von Wan Chai. Verkehrsanbindung zu Bus, Straßenbahn und MTR sehr gut. Der Kontakt, Freundlichkeit und Hilfsbereitschaft von Wan waren sehr gut und wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Insagesamt ist die Wohnung sehr empfehlenswert.
