Seeds of Innovation
Exciting things are happening at Southside Middle School. Roza Selvey, a sixth grade teacher of Science, Technology, Mathematics, and Engineering (STEM) is using horticulture as a foundation on which to build her students' skill sets.
Tomatillo Salsa
Summer has faded into fall. In the permaculture garden at Minnetrista, our tomatillos gave us buckets of fruit! But we ran into a problem: what to do with the produce that can't be eaten right away? Luckily for us, the answer was easy–salsa! Recently, the Permaculture Initiative hosted their first canning event and participants made six quarts of tomatillo salsa.
Propagating Strawberries
Who doesn't love strawberries? My impromptu survey of the horticulture staff at Minnetrista indicates that strawberries may be the most popular fruit. Luckily for everyone, fall is the time to spread the wealth! Here is how you can turn one strawberry plant into dozens to share with your friends.
Joe-Pye Weed: A Towering Beauty
Of the herbaceous perennials at Minnetrista, Joe-Pye weed is one of the skyscrapers, reaching 7–8 feet tall. Although it's slow to get going—it's one of the last plants to start growing in spring—its height soon surpasses most plants around it.
Watch Out! Crown Rot is Here
About this time last summer, I briefly mentioned a plant disease the gardeners and I were dealing with in the Minnetrista Boulevard planting bed. Called crown rot or southern blight, it was making quick work of hostas.
Behind The Orchard Shop at Minnetrista, there is a secret garden. Unassuming as it is, you might walk right past it. But take a closer look. This garden is bursting with food! And people! And…dogs? This is the Permaculture Demonstration Garden at Minnetrista, started in partnership with The Permaculture Initiative.
4 Great Grasses
Ornamental grasses can bring height, texture, and color to your garden. They also provide food, shelter, and nesting material for birds and other wildlife. When you stop by your local plant seller, consider trying one of these.
Is it time yet?
The weather is warming, the days are longer, and the familiar sight of daffodil and tulip foliage emerging from their dormant rest is telling us it is spring! I'd say that this time of year, like no other, really gets the gardener motivated.
Ephemeral Beauty
Did you know that some flowers begin growth in the winter? Spring ephemerals often start blooming before spring even arrives. Even now, with six inches of snow accumulation and a temperature of 14 degrees, winter aconite, scilla, , crocus, and many more are inching above ground, unfurling leaves, and producing flower buds. The best time to see these early beauties is approaching—they bloom from mid-March through April.
Think Big!
Large annuals may be just what you need in certain spots in the landscape. They can add some height to a flower garden. You can also get more for your money by filling up a large space with just a few plants. Large perennials, like grasses, could also be used for these purposes. These are great because they come back every year, but unlike annuals they take more than a year to reach their full size.

September is Childhood Obesity Awareness Month. If you don't know already, obesity is a serious health problem for children, just as it is in adults. The combination of poor nutrition, physical inactivity, and obesity has physical, psychological, and social consequences for children that frequently persist into adulthood.
Nearly one-third of children and teenagers are over a healthy body weight and 17 percent are considered obese. Although the prevalence of overweight and obesity are lower in children than adults (two-thirds of adults are overweight and over 30 percent are obese), it is important to note that overweight and obesity rates in children are increasing but seem to have leveled off in adults.
There are numerous potential causes of obesity in children, but the most likely suspects are too little activity at school and home and excessive calorie intake, largely because of added sugars. Less than half of all kids meet the minimum recommendation of 60 minutes of activity each day and many children spend as much time watching television or playing video games as they do in school. Only about 10 percent of kids eat three or more servings of vegetables each day and the consumption of sugars from candy, soda and other sugar-sweetened beverages, and other foods has been on the rise for years. We shouldn't be surprised that we have a childhood obesity problem!
The health consequences of obesity can be severe. Adults who are obese are at significantly higher risk for type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, heart attack, and stroke, especially if they are also inactive. The same is true for obese children. In fact, these "adult" diseases are now being diagnosed in preteens! This creates a potential scenario that is troubling.
An adult who is diagnosed with type 2 diabetes at age 40 is likely to have a heart attack around age 60. What will happen if someone is diagnosed with type 2 diabetes at age 20? Are they likely to suffer a heart attack at age 40? What if type 2 diabetes starts at age 12? No one really knows what to expect, but some experts have predicted that this generation of children will have a shorter life span that their parents because of obesity and obesity-related conditions.
It's as though our society is doing a big experiment to see what happens when a large percentage of a generation becomes obese. The problem is that we are doing this experiment on children. Worse, even though we don't know exactly what will happen, the results are expected to be very bad. A study like this – experimenting on children with the expectation of negative health outcomes – would be deemed unacceptable and not be approved. Yet the childhood obesity problem we face now is just this type of experiment.
The good news is that we can end this experiment by taking steps to prevent and treat childhood obesity now. Ensuring that children get plenty of healthy foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat meat and dairy, limiting consumption of added sugars, and eating appropriate portion sizes will go a long way to addressing the diet aspect of obesity. Making sure that kids of all ages have opportunities to be active at home and school while limiting time spent sitting, especially in front of a TV, are equally important.
Since children don't make most of the decisions about their activity and diet, parents, schools, and other institutions play an important role in both contributing to and preventing or treating obesity. You can learn more about childhood obesity and what we can do about this problem at www.coam-month.org.

The early season Ballers and Busters have been tallied up and we have our midseason totals. Sure, technically it won't be midseason for the Raiders until after the Broncos game, but it is the bye week so it is just the easiest time to do it.
The Raiders were a pretty sound team overall which made it that much more difficult to pick the players who would make each of the two lists. Bad teams have distinct standouts both good and bad. But teams that play well as a unit make it more difficult to pinpoint. One week one player will stand out, and the next week someone else steps up.
For instance, there were 31 different Ballers this season. That means that all the starters, a few backups, and coaches got into the act. The flipside is there were also 22 different Busters. So it goes both ways.
Now let's check in with the Raider players at the (almost) halfway point of the season.
Darren McFadden
He led all Raiders in Baller nods with four. He was also named top Baller three times. Before he went out with an ankle injury, he led the NFL in rushing. He suffered the injury early in the week seven loss to the Chiefs which has put him a bit behind in the race for the NFL rushing lead, but that doesn't really matter much in the scheme of things. What matters is in every other game this season, he has been dominant, and he is a big reason the Raiders were able to win four games so far this season.
McFadden shot out the gates in week one to run for 150 yards. After just one game of the season, he led the league in rushing and he stayed in the lead for five weeks. In the Raiders' home opener in week three, he tore through the Jets defense to rack up 171 yards including a 70 yard run. He also scored two touchdowns in the game. He was the first running back in the Rex Ryan era to go over 100 yards in the first half and just the fourth to go over 100 yards for an entire game. The following week, he suffered a groin strain and didn't play nearly the entire second quarter. But he was able to gain 75 yards on the ground for 5.4 yards per carry and added 4 catches for 48 yards. In his last healthy outing he gained 91 yards on 20 carries to help the Raiders beat the Browns.
Darrius Heyward-Bey
I have to say I didn't think the day would come when I would be putting Darrius Heyward-Bey on this list. Leading up to the season there was no indication he would break out, and even through three weeks of this season he looked as pedestrian as we have known him to be. But after week three he exploded. He was named a Baller in every game since week four. That is four Baller nods. In those four games he has gone from 5 catches for 49 yards to 25 catches for 434 yards. All the while he continues to be a great blocker as well. He broke out in week four when he had 115 yards receiving. The next week he caught seven passes for 99 yards and touchdown to help the Raiders beat the Texans. His last two games he has had 82 and 89 yards. He has averaged 96 yards a game the last four games which means that he is on pace for a 1300 yard season. It remains to be seen if he can continue his hot streak, but he is off to a great start.
Sebastian Janikowski
One could make the case that Janikowski is the Raiders' MVP through the early part of this season. He was named a Baller twice but he has really been great throughout. Well, all except last week when he was injured and didn't play. He tied an NFL record with a 63 yard field goal in week one which helped him earn Special Teams player of the month. Then in the week five win in Houston he tied another NFL record with three field goals of 50 yards or more in a single game. He had four field goals total and with his two extra points he scored most of the Raiders' points that day. He has scored 52 points which makes him the Raiders' leading scorer this season by a large margin. McFadden is second with 30 points scored. Janikowski has missed just one field goal all season and it was from 56 yards out.
Jared Veldheer
He has not given up a sack all season thus far. Not much more needs to be said about the Raiders' second year left tackle. This didn't come out of nowhere, either. He was outstanding for the latter half of last season as well. It could be premature to say this but it appears as if the Raiders have found their left tackle for the next decade.
Richard Seymour
He continues to be the leader of this Raider defensive front. They go as he goes. His best games were all Raider wins in weeks 1, 3, and 5. His one poor game was against his old Patriots teammates when he let his emotions get the best of him. But normally he plays sound, consistent football, as evidenced by his leading the team in sacks (5) which is also best in the NFL among defensive tackles.
Stefen Wisniewski, Samson Satele
These two have been road graders for the Raiders all season long. When Darren McFadden was running up the gut, he was usually running behind these guys. Wisniewski plays at left guard but when Satele has to leave the game, he slides over to center to cover his spot. It is a luxury few NFL teams have. Satele has been playing the best football of his career this season. He is also as tough as they come. Twice he has been injured this season and both times he didn't miss a game. With Wiz kid, Satele and Veldheer, the Raiders have three young players to anchor the left side of the Raiders offensive line for a good long while.
Honorable Mention
Demarcus Van Dyke
This rookie is really coming into his own. He was named a Baller in last week's game versus the Chiefs for the first time but has been improving all season. He took over as the starter in week five and has made the most of it. Opposing quarterbacks have tested him and he has stood tall giving up just 9 catches on 24 passes thrown at his receiver. That is good for a 38% completion percentage which is best on the team among those with at least 10 passes. Last week Matt Cassel tested him all day with little success. If he can put on some weight, and improve his tackling, he could be a real find for the Raiders.
Rolando McClain
The man dubbed "Death Ro" by Raider fans showed up for the second week of the season like death warmed over. The Bills put a hurting on the Raiders defense in that game and McClain did little to stop them. The Raiders went up in that game by a large margin but the Bills were able to come back to win after scoring on five straight drives to finish out the game. One of those drives featured a big 47 yard touchdown run in which McClain was trailing but then simply gave up and started jogging. That dogging it is unacceptable from the guy who is supposed to be the leader of this defense. Later McClain was blocked on a 29 yard run and had an illegal contact penalty that negated a sack. Next drive he had a missed tackle on a 25 yard run. Next drive, which was the final drive of the game, he missed a tackle on a nine yard run and gave up three catches including the game winning touchdown.
The next week he was the ONLY Buster for the Raiders, due in large part to yet another instance of him jogging after trailing on a run. This time it resulted in a 74 yard run after catch to the one yard line and the Jets would score two plays later. On the Jets last drive, he gave up a huge 32 yard catch to put the Jets at first and goal at the nine yard line.
Hue Jackson
Hue's game management has been horrendous thus far. The first criticism came down in the week five loss to the Patriots. The coach who touts "living on the edge" opted to punt with the Raiders in 4th and 2 at the Patriots 40 yard line. He had two options that were preferable to punting: using his strong legged kicker to try a 57 yard field goal or try to pick up the two yards for the first down. He opted to let the clock run down and a delay of game penalty to give Lechler more room to punt.
Two weeks later he was at it again with the head scratching calls. The first faulty play call was an end around to Denarius Moore that the entire Browns defense saw coming and Denarius was dropped for a three yard loss. Later Hue called for a reverse to David Ausberry–the tight end. Ausberry may be fast but he is only fast for a tight end. He isn't reverse kind of fast. Then came Hue's most questionable call of the day. With the Raiders in fourth and one at the five yard line, he opted to go for it instead of kick the field goal to put the team up by three scores and all but seal the victory. They missed the first down, and the Browns drove 96 yards for a touchdown, had a successful onside kick, drove the ball into scoring position, and nearly tied the game. One would hope he learned from that. He is lucky he learned it the easy way.
Last week, after Jason Campbell went down with a broken collarbone, he traded for Carson Palmer and ignited an instant quarterback controversy. He could have kept the press and the Chiefs wondering while secretly giving Kyle Boller all the snaps. But instead he gave them all shared snaps. As if it wasn't bad enough that even after training camp and the season thus far Boller was never properly prepared, now he has to share snaps during a time in which he needs to prepare to lead this team. Hue was so caught up in all the attention he was getting all week he forgot he needed to prepare his team to play. Then came the game.
Boller was atrocious as you would expect for a completely ill-prepared quarterback in a complicated offense. Much of that had to do with how Jackson handled the play calling while he was in the game. For instance, on the first series, with the Raiders in third and one, he just decided to throw in Terrelle Pryor to execute a quarterback sneak. But he was leaning before the snap of the ball and was called for an illegal shift. With the now third and long, Hue called for Boller to go to the air and he threw the interception returned for a touchdown. And that was only the first series.
The rest of the first half Hue called for Boller to throw a long ball that was intercepted as well as two botched fleaflicker attempts. He also called for a wildcat formation on third and goal at the one yard line with Michael Bush in the backfield. The Chiefs were caught off guard and called a timeout. But instead of changing the play call, he went right back to the same exact thing and the Chiefs stuffed Bush at the line to hold the Raiders out of the endzone.
With Boller's poor play putting the Raiders in a 21-0 deficit, Hue opted to try out his new toy–Carson Palmer. But he couldn't just tell Palmer before halftime. He gave Boller one more series in the second half. Palmer was in a ball cap on the sideline not warming up and with no idea he would be entering the game. With no notice, he was given a helmet and put in the game. The result was three interceptions including one returned for a touchdown. The final result was a 28-0 shutout loss.
Chris Johnson
He only started two games this season, but in those two games he gave up 14 catches on 17 passes to his receiver. That is an 82% completion rate which is by far the worst on the team. He also was giving up 13 yards per catch which is worst among Raider cornerbacks. In just those two games starting he gave up more yards (182) than any other active Raider defensive back. This despite being fifth in targets. Routt (42), Branch (30), Van Dyke (24), and Huff (22) all have more targets. In just the second game of the season, he gave up 7 catches for 86 yards to Bills receivers. He also had 3 penalties for 35 yards. In between catches given up and penalties, Johnson surrendered 9 first downs, including the 9 yard catch on fourth and 3 that would have given the Raiders the win. Late in that game he went out with an injury after week two that forced the two rookie corners into starting. He has yet to return and is taking up a much needed roster spot. With the play of Demarcus Van Dyke, he may not get his job back even when he does return.

There is a river
called the River of No Return
Sometimes it's peaceful
And sometimes wild and free
A straightforward, scenic and exciting "A" western with the lean, get-in-and-get-the-job-done running time of a "B", River of No Return put major stars Robert Mitchum and Marilyn Monroe together for the first and only time, and the Cinemascope frame can barely contain their combined high-wattage screen presence.
Against the awe-inspiring mountain peaks and wide river valleys of Banff National Park in Alberta, Canada, River opens with widower Matt Calder (Mitchum) - recently released from prison for killing a man - riding into a booming mining camp to collect his nine-year-old son, Mark, who he has arranged to pick up there. He soon finds the boy, wandering around on his own amid the chaos of the camp.
What's that tag on your coat?
The man who brought me here put it on. I'm looking for my dad.
What's your dad look like?
I don't know. I was just a kid last time I saw him.
Would it be all right if he looked like me?
Defenseless without his rifle, and the river the only means of escape, Matt flees on the raft with Mark and Kay as some Indians close in and burn the cabin to the ground. From then on, Matt's all business, his main goals to keep them alive and exact his revenge on Harry. Kay is equally intent on protecting her tarnished beau. The two do the usual fighting, bickering and slowly burgeoning romance thing, while contending with not only the deadly rapids but attacks from cougars, Indians and rapacious miners on their way to a fateful showdown in Council City...
It's a simple story, but a well-told one, which is all that matters in a western as far as I'm concerned. Mitchum (who made the bizarre, moody Track of the Cat the same year) is effortlessly rugged, a cool, capable presence that anchors the film. Marilyn not only looks great in her blue jeans and chanteuse frills, but manages to hold her own with Mitchum and still croon a few nice tunes. The scenery is gorgeous, the action muscular and frequent, and there's just enough character conflict to keep things interesting. Tommy Rettig is appealing as young Mark, and Rory Calhoun is all rattlesnake charm as the smiling, amoral Harry. Murvyn Vye and Douglas Spencer (a long way from his role as reporter Scott in The Thing from Another World) make a brief yet memorable appearance as a couple of grubby, brutish mine owners also on Harry's trail, and a few other well-known character actors, like Arthur Shields, Will Wright and John Doucette, show up in small cameos.
According to Lee Server's excellent bio, Robert Mitchum: "Baby, I Don't Care", Otto Preminger's trademark screaming, bullying, Nazi general mode of directing didn't work at all well with the notoriously flighty, insecure Monroe:
Filming had barely begun when Monroe and the director stopped speaking to each other. "It was the biggest mismatch I'd ever seen," said (assistant director and unit manager) Paul Helmick. "They absolutely detested each other."
(...) Preminger turned to Mitchum for help; and Bob would become the single tenuous line of communication between Monroe and the director. (1)
Mitchum was an infamous horndog but insisted he never had the slightest interest in Marilyn sexually. Nevertheless, they generate some definite heat together on screen, two prime and primal physical specimens.
Behind the scenes, things weren't helped by the constant presence of Monroe's drama coach, Natasha Lytess. There were also some near death escapades involving the stunt crew filming the white water rapids scenes. Marilyn even injured her ankle towards the end of the filming. Mitchum seems to have coasted through things with his usual aplomb. One final story, courtesy of Server:
...(Mitchum) was a marvelous entertainer," Roy Jenson (the stuntman who doubled Mitchum on the rafting scenes) recalled. "Really great. And I was young and naive and everything, and trying to keep up, but no way, I was so far out of my league. Mitchum was incredible. The guy could drink two or three quarts of gin and not even show it. One day I went out with Bob and Murvyn Vye, he was the heavy in the picture. And we were drinking for hours. I'm just ripped out of my mind. I finally go away and I get a steam bath and a massage and a nap and have some dinner and I come back, and they were still there, talking and drinking!" (3)
Despite all the backstage trouble, the final film is as smooth a Hollywood spectacle as you're likely to find, and it's always been a personal favorite of mine. It's got a lovely, haunting main theme by Cyril J. Mockridge, with an ethereal, ghostly choir seemingly trying to mimic the sound of the north wind sighing through the trees. An uncredited Mitchum does a respectable job warbling the opening title song (*) , and Marilyn brings the right combination of sauciness and melancholy to her dance hall numbers. The story is solid, the star power and production values high, and the result is a fine, glossy and entertaining 50s western.
* There's much debate over whether it was Mitchum or Tennessee Ernie Ford who did the actual singing - see this thread for more info...all I can say is it sounds more like Mitchum to me.
DVD Note: River of No Return was released on Blu-Ray last July as part of the Forever Marilyn Collection, and looks and sounds mighty nice. You can see some representative screen shots here.

NZXT Panzerbox All Aluminum Mid Tower Case
Specifications, Availability and Pricing
NZXT has built the Panzerbox completely of aluminum. During the process of assembly, all connections made to other pieces inside the case get welded together versus the standard rivets I am used to seeing. The Panzerbox measures up almost square, if not for the slight angle of the front top section. NZXT says the case is 244mm wide, or about 9.5" wide, and both the front to back and top to bottom measurements come in at 455mm or just under 18" tall or deep. The Panzerbox includes room for up to three 5.25" drives, all of which are external, nd can support up to four 3.5" Internal drives in two separate locations. Even as I lifted the Panzerbox off my porch, I realized this case was really light compared to most of the cases I have reviewed recently. NZXT ships the Panzerbox with an empty weight of 6.3 kilograms, or just under 14 pounds for those still on the Imperial system. With all this compact design and superior cooling, it can all be put to good use and still accept 10.5" graphics cards. Talk about the basic beginnings of a LAN sleeper rig!
The Cooling of the NZXT Panzerbox boasts over 300 CFM of airflow with just the top and front fans being added into that figure. Both the top fan and the front panel intake fans are 190mm each and both are rated to 150 CFM. All this wind power is accomplished with a relatively slow 100 RPM, which should help battle the roar I was accustomed to in my Antec 900. NZXT also supplies a 120mm rear exhaust fan, but does not sell them separately to check, nor do they provide any information for this fan. Going on a basic guess I would say it's about 80 CFM by feel, which makes this case a lot closer to 400 CFM of air circulation.
Availability at this time is still zero. The release to retailers was projected for late April. Well here we are and it still isn't on any shelves, last I checked. I can only assume these cases are in transit to your local retailers and hopefully to Newegg as well. As with other cases from NZXT, once they hit shelves stock is usually plentiful. I see no issues getting a Panzerbox from NZXT once they are ready to sell.
Pricing, last I saw, was projected in the $120 price range. At this price point there is pretty stiff competition in mid towers, as well as a select few full tower chassis'. For instance, the Cooler Master Storm Scout and HAF cases, Antec 900, Lian Li PC-60 series, as well as many other quality cases already have a strong foothold in this segment. While the Panzerbox takes concepts of a lot of other cases and rolls them all into one complete package, let's see if NZXT deserves the price that these other accomplished competitors are commanding.

Land dispute behind kidnapping
Story Text & Photos © 2012 by DR1
May 1 2012 20:01PM
- Peravia lawyer Julio Franjul, 66, accused members of the Guerrero family of his kidnapping on Wednesday, 25 April. He said he was in his office on Calle Duarte in Bani when he was kidnapped, as reported in El Caribe on Friday, 27 April. He said the Guerrero family has spent two years harassing him for 3,000 tareas of land that he inherited from his father in La Angostura, Matanzas, Peravia. He said the property has belonged to his family for more than 100 years. In an interview with El Caribe he said he is still in pain as a result of the beating he received from his kidnappers, who took him out of his office at gunpoint to a mountainous area in San Juan province. He said that as soon as he was kidnapped his neighbors called the police, which immediately located him and confronted the kidnappers. Juan Leonardo Pimentel and Abraham Rafael Soto were killed in the clash between police and the suspected kidnappers. The Police arrested Juan Jose Guerrero, and a fourth person identified as Alberto Luis Perez escaped. The police unit rescued Franjul unharmed. As reported, Perez had posted bail for armed robbery on a betting shop just last week. Read original at

text: The 1894 production of The Shop Girl started a catchphrase. There had always been girls in the shows at the Gaiety Theatre, but the plot of this musical needed lots of them. New names such as Constance Collier and Fannie Ward (who would both go on to be famous) joined current favourites Violet Monckton and Topsy Sinden. The grand total came to more than 15 beautiful young actresses in the cast. You can see many of them in the pages of the souvenir programme here. It's no surprise that they caught the eye of fashionable London. There had been a successful musical at the Prince of Wales' Theatre the year before called A Gaiety Girl. As The Shop Girl was at the Gaiety, it was a short step to all of London talking about The Gaiety Girls. The Shop Girl ran for 546 performances into 1895, when this souvenir programme was produced.

MIDDLETOWN – A new program aimed at helping Monmouth County's seniors was rolled out in the county on Thursday, giving them an opportunity to receive a free emergency supply kit.
The Monmouth County Sheriff's Office and Office of Emergency Management developed the program, Seniors Taking on Readiness Measures (STORM), after debriefings following Hurricane Sandy determined that seniors were not prepared when the emergency hit.
Sheriff Shaun Golden said the OEM received a $30,000 grant to fund the emergency supply kits, which Golden credited the idea to OEM Coordinator Michael Oppegaard.
"It's good for all hazards, that's the way we look at it," Golden said.
Oppegaard said that they used FEMA's emergency supply list to determine which items to put in the kit. Some of the supplies include water, a toothbrush and toothpaste, can opener, flashlight and batteries.
"We looked at it from the stuff we had to provide for folks at the shelter," Oppegaard said. "Most of the people came with literally nothing."
Oppegaard said during Hurricane Sandy the county had to get around 2,000 prescriptions filled because people didn't bring enough supplies with them to the shelter. In order to receive a free emergency supply kit, seniors must fill out a disaster plan booklet, which includes questions about insurance, medications and household information.
"If they do show up empty-handed again, at least if they come with that we can take care of some of those necessities for them," Oppegaard said.
Golden said they would be going to senior centers throughout the county to present the STORM program and pass out emergency kits.
"We're going to go around the county, senior community by senior community, and we're going to preach the preparedness and the planning," Golden said. "STORM provides people with the tools to build a plan in an effort to strengthen resiliency, sustainability and expedite recovery during emergencies and disasters."
Middletown resident Jackie Errichiello called the emergency kits a "terrific idea" and said she likes the booklets where you can list personal information, including prescriptions.
"The information is always with you. Let's face it, every senior has medications," Errichiello said. "There are a lot of things [in the kit] I probably didn't even think of."
Mary Lou Procopio, of Middletown, said she hopes the presentations will get people thinking about preparing for emergencies.
Although the program is aimed at seniors, Oppegaard stressed that everyone needs to be prepared for an emergency by being informed, making a plan, building a kit and getting involved.
"If you have to leave your home, you need to bring your necessities with you," Oppegaard said. "As much as we try to do, we can't provide every single thing for everybody, from a government's standpoint, and it's really a partnership between us and the community. We need to be prepared and each individual needs to be prepared as well, they need to take some responsibility for themselves.

PITTSBURGH - Former state Supreme Court Justice Joan Orie Melvin was sentenced Tuesday to house arrest and community service in soup kitchens, and ordered to send handwritten apologies for her crimes on photographs of herself in handcuffs to every judge in the state.
She was given no prison time.
Allegheny County Court Judge Lester Nauhaus sentenced Melvin to three years of house arrest, with two years on probation to follow.
A jury convicted Melvin and her sister Janine Orie on Feb. 21 of using judicial staff, as well as aides to another sister, former State Sen. Jane Orie, to work on Melvin's 2003 and 2009 campaigns for the Supreme Court. Melvin, 56, was found guilty of conspiracy, theft of services, and misapplication of government funds. She resigned in March, leaving the high court with six members - three Democrats and three Republicans. Gov. Corbett is expected to appoint an interim justice soon.

Welcome Anthony. Good luck!
Hello everyone! I am very excited to be here. Actually I have been here for quite a while, but to be writing words on this site is quite refreshing! My journey with nutrition and exercise has been a tumultuous one. I discovered Mark's website in 2007. He was on Doug Kaufman's show Know the Cause promoting the Master Formula. His site then was the old style. It had the caricature of Mark with a big head! The site was in its formative stages then, but I found it an incredible resource. There was no PB book yet, and living primally was really just an idea that was being discovered.
Now, we all know the status of this site now, and I couldn't be happier about that!
I had taken many the tips from Mark and have lived with them nearly constantly for the last few years. Soda, refined grains, alcohol (except red wine) and the other usuals have been eliminated. My workouts are haphazard and fun and I feel great after them. I enjoy basking in the sunlight. I deal with stress with meditation and play. As a result of all of these lifestyle choices, I am living so much happier.
So with the growth of this site, I need to grow as well. I will be 24 in May, and my goal is to be completely primal by my birthday. I need your guys help with this! There are some things I can still improve.
Vegetables and fruits in my diet are a huge opportunity for me. I need to eat a lot more of these. I've got the meat thing down perfectly. Seems to be the easiest part.
I also want to become a master chef on primal meals. This is going to be my big, big, BIG focus over the next month. I keep eating the same thing everyday: shallot and spinach omlete for breakfast, sardines for a snack, a minimal salad for lunch, and fish or steak for dinner. I want to mix things up and get in on some of these exciting meals you guys and ladies tout so openly.
I have realized also that I have been focusing on some of the less important aspects of my health and making unneccessary changes to my lifestyle to mitigate small risks. Mark's article on fluoride woke me up a little bit to this possibility, for example. I have been lugging around a gallon jug of water to work and my girlfriend's because they use filtered municipal water. The water otherwise tastes great and the content tests good too. I feel that this is a lot of unneccessary stress for such a small risk, and I would rather spend my energy focusing on larger risks that I ignored.
Anyway, I don't want to go on too long. So I will linger around and keep absorbing this great information that is going around here. Wish me luck!
Welcome Anthony. Good luck!
Ancestral Health Info
I design websites and blogs for a living. If you would like a blog or website designed by someone who understands Primal, see my web page.
Primal Blueprint Explorer My blog for people who are not into the Grok thing. Since starting the blog, I have moved close to being Archevore instead of Primal. But Mark's Daily Apple is still the best source of information about living an ancestral lifestyle.
Welcome and good for you taking an interest in your health at your age, I wish I had access to this info 13 years ago!
If you're interested in my (very) occasional updates on how I'm working out and what I'm eating click here.

Calendar for GFCA
Monday, September 20, 6-8pm Samuel B. Welch, MD, PHD, FACS, FAAOA, Associate Professor of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery at UAMS will be speaking. Topic: "Delayed Food Reactions: Diagnosis and Management"
*Saturday*, October 16th, 10am to noon GLUTEN FREE GOOD HEALTH with Dr. Claudia Pillow
Current research indicates that reducing or eliminating gluten can help reduce inflammation in the body, helping to strengthen the immune system, prevent chronic diseases such as diabetes and arthritis, and manage weight. The market and demand for gluten-free foods has exploded, whether by necessity (celiac disease) or by choice (weight loss). With increased awareness and new product introduction comes a lot of confusion. Explore innovative ways to replace gluten in the food you eat and get expert baking and cooking advice for healthy eating. Dr. Pillow will give a basic overview of gluten intolerance, and then offer gluten-free food choices and menu ideas to simplify the process.
In 2007, Claudia Pillow received her Ph.D. in Health Studies from Texas Women's University but, she has been studying and working with food for her entire life. Dr. Pillow is a classically trained chef and graduate of the New York Restaurant School, and worked as a chef and caterer for many years in the New York metropolitan area. A MBA and Bachelor of Science from Rutgers University offered her the opportunity to jump to the corporate side of the food industry, where she marketed cheese and natural beverages. In 2009, The Gluten-Free Good Health Cookbook: The Delicious Way to Strengthen Your Immune System and Neutralize Inflammation (Agate Surrey), the diet cookbook she co-wrote with her sister, Annalise Roberts (author of Gluten-Free Baking Classics), was released. The sisters developed The Food Philosopher® brand and website to educate and empower individuals to manage health and food-related decisions. Currently, Claudia lectures about gluten intolerance and teaches cooking and baking classes nationally. A former Board Member of the Gluten Intolerance Group of North America, Dr. Pillow is the fundraising chair and director for the North Texas chapter where she is organizing the first gluten-free "taste of" fundraising event, A Gluten-Free Makeover: A Healthier You!, co-sponsored by the Gaylord Texan, September 19, 2010.

Notes from the GFCA August meeting
This was out first meeting in the Annex building of the Heart Hospital. Dr. Betsy Hendricks spoke about yeast and probiotics. There was great interest in the Gluten Free Skin Care products Penny Rudder brought to the meeting. Penny has a lovely blog and she has posted many recipes. http://ourgreentable.blogspot.com/
The room and chairs were very comfortable. Drug Emporium provided samples of foods. Nana's and Mary's Gone Crackers sent the group samples of their cookies. Both of these company's cookies are found at Drug Emporium.
Gluten Alerts
Lipton's Onion Soup Mix and Knorr's Vegetable Soup Mix now contain barley.
August 9, 2010: Watson Pharmaceuticals states that its brand of Lisinoprol is no longer gluten free but contains ingredients derived from wheat. www.clanthompson.com
Some Health Valley soups have no gluten ingredients listed but they are not among the GF products listed by Hain Celestial at this time. I called HC today and was told that all their GF products that have gone through testing will be listed at www.glutenfreechoices.com and will have a red triangle that says "Gluten Free" on the package. I was told they are still testing the soups and other products. This website also has tips for living GF by Danna Korn and some recipes.
Children's Corner by Sherri
Growing up, I always knew I wanted to be a Kool-Aid Mom. Back then, we didn't have other drink options besides water, so Kool-Aid was a treat! Now it excites me that the little Kool-Aid packets are labeled gluten free, so I can make it with Stevia and feel like it's a pretty good choice for my daughter. (I realize it isn't perfect, but I am making steps in the right direction.)
In addition to avoiding gluten, now we are hearing how terrible high fructose corn syrup is for children's brains. I have found two drinks that seem like better options. Dr. Pepper has some canned drinks made with real sugar, although they are hard to find. There is also a new Crystal Light lemonade mix called Pure Fitness that is made with stevia and perfect to send to school with a bottle of water.
It's easy to get overwhelmed when I think of feeding my daughter gluten free let alone eliminating other ingredients from her diet. Then I remind myself that helping her avoid major health issues down the road is one of the best gifts I could possibly give her.
Students with Celiac Disease
The American Celiac Disease Alliance has information to help children at school. http://americanceliac.org/for-families/at-school/
"For most children, school is a place of learning and socializing. It is important for them to feel safe and welcome in this environment. Parents face a number of adjustments when the kids go off to school. Having a student with celiac disease presents another set of challenges. Not having control over the food or food products that the child may be exposed to can be uncomfortable. While your child may be 'out of sight' you can still survey the landscape and remove, or limit, the opportunities for cross-contamination.
In this section, guidelines are provided to assist parents and family members in navigating the school setting. Unlike the gluten-free diet which must be followed, 'one size' does not fit all when it comes to working with teachers, principals, or food service staff. Only you can decide the best approach based on the needs of your child and your family."
Back To School
Celiac.com 08/30/2010 - If
it hasn't started yet, school's just around the corner for millions of
gluten-free kids. That means a gluten-free plan for breakfast every morning,
and for gluten-free lunches, and in-school and after-school snacks.
Dana Korn, author of Kids with Celiac Disease, makes some excellent suggestions for getting an early handle on any gluten-free challenges or resources that may await your child at school. Her suggestions include:

Recipe Corner
Thanks to Elizabeth Barbone who has allowed me to share this recipe with you. You may want to check out her websites for other fabulous recipes.
She also has a cookbook "Easy Gluten-Free Baking" It is rated as 5 stars on Amazon.
S'More Pie
For the Crust
1 1/3 cups gluten-free graham cracker crumbs
4 Tablespoons butter, melted
2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
For the Filling and Topping
1 3.4 ounce box chocolate pudding* (prepared according to directions for pie filling) OR 2 cups homemade chocolate pudding, chilled
1 1/2 cups (approximately) mini-marshmallows
*Or 1 3.9 box of instant pudding. If you like a generous amount of chocolate filling, make two boxes of pudding. However, you will have leftover pudding that doesn't fit into the pie shell.
· Preheat the oven to 350F
· In a small bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter and sugar.
· Stir until all the crumbs are damp and hold together
· Transfer the crumbs to a 9-inch pie pan.
· Using the back of a spoon, press the crumbs into the bottom of the pan and up the sides
· Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven, place on wire rack and allow to cool.
· Spoon the chilled pudding into the baked piecrust.
· Cover the top with mini-marshmallows
· Preheat your broiler and toast the marshmallows under the broiler.
· Serve and enjoy. Store any leftover pie in the refrigerator.
Cranberry Pecan Chicken Salad
In a large bowl, toss to combine:
In a separate, medium bowl, whisk together the following ingredients until well-combined:
Add the dressing to the chicken mixture, and stir to thoroughly combine. Sprinkle with additional dill as garnish, if desired.
Serve with crackers, rolls, or sliced bread.
This recipe is from Karen Joy's Blog "Only Sometimes Clever" http://onlysometimesclever.wordpress.com/2010/04/15/cranberry-pecan-chicken-salad/ where you can see all 42 recipes and enjoy her blog.
Pepperoni Omelet Hints
I enjoy omelets. I can keep them interesting by changing what I put into them. One of my favorites is pepperoni. I usually use Hormel – it is labeled "gluten free". My hint is how to get rid of some of the grease in the pepperoni. I lay out the slices in a single layer on a paper towel on a plate and put them into the microwave. Heat them gently but don't overcook. Then you can take a second paper towel and blot up much of the fat. Now the pepperoni is ready to put into the omelet along with anything else you like. I like spinach, pepper jack cheese and onion with the pepperoni and then I top with salsa.
More restaurants are adding gluten free menus. Here are the ones I heard about just this past month. Thanks Julianne for telling me about Red Mango.
5621 Kavanaugh Blvd.
Little Rock, AR 72207
Phone: 501 663 2500
Red Mango uses ingredients certified gluten free through the Gluten Free Certification Organization www.gfco.org
Bravo! Cucina Italiana
17815 Chenal Parkway
Little Rock, AR 72223-5823
(501) 821-2485
I had a lovely salad topped with chicken for lunch at Bravo!
Ya Ya's Euro Bistro
17711 Chenal Parkway
Little Rock, AR 72223-5808
(501) 821-1144
I have enjoyed Ya Ya's many times and never disappointed in the quality of the food. They now have a GF menu. Today I had the salmon salad. One of the items on the salad is crispy potatoes. They are not GF so be sure to tell your server you do not want them on your salad. I would have liked the GF menu to say, "Avoid the crispy potatoes". The waitperson seemed very knowledgeable about what was GF and what was not.
For a complete listing of the restaurants in AR with GF menus, please go to the GFCA website www.centralarkansasgig.org and click on the Restaurant link.
Drug Emporium
New GF products I found at Drug Emporium
Ice Box Bakery has frozen slice/bake/eat chocolate chip cookie. Be careful – Not all cookie rolls from this company are GF. http://www.iceboxbakery.com/
WOW cookies are in the freezer section. These cookies are certified GF by The Gluten Free Certification Organization. http://www.wowbaking.com/
O'Dough's bread's in the freezer. If you try this bread, I would love a review to share in the next newsletter. http://www.odoughs.com/index.php
Shabtai products can be found in the freezer and on the GF shelf. Sherri said she liked Ring Ting Cupcakes – similar to Ding Dongs. There are also small birthday cakes. http://www.odoughs.com/index.php
Pamela's individual cheesecake. This is found in the freezer near the ice creams. I saw only the individual cheesecakes, but Pamela's makes a large one too. http://www.pamelasproducts.com/index.html
Buffalo Guys products can be found in the freezer. I have tried the hotdogs and they have just the right amount of spice without nitrites or MSG.
Whole Foods
New GF products at Whole Foods
Fabe's GF Cakes – There are two flavors: Chocolate and Carrot. These can be found in the freezer. http://www.fabesnatural.com/index.html They are certified GF by GFCO but do not have the new label with the GF logo yet.
Moondance Heavenly Desserts makes Mini GF Cheesecakes and Fudge Brownies. I am not sure exactly which ones the Little Rock Whole Foods carries. If you want to try this product, Moondance is sending our group some samples for our next meeting. http://moondancedesserts.com/
Heartland has a blend of corn and rice pasta. It has been sighted in the Fayetteville Walmart. I don't know if it is available at all Walmarts. As they make non-GF pasta, I wrote and asked what precautions they are taking to ensure the GF pasta is truly GF. Here is what they said.
American Italian Pasta Company thoroughly cleans all production equipment prior to production of a gluten free product, and tests to validate the clean prior to start up. The gluten level of the product is also verified to ensure that it does not exceed 20 ppm. We follow the proposed rule in the Federal Register (72 FR 7295) that tests for gluten at the 20 ppm level.
We have an extremely detailed protocol in place to prevent cross contamination. Before we produce any product a thorough cleaning of all equipment and surfaces occurs. Several swab tests are done of primary surfaces to ensure the cleaning was done properly. During production testing for glutens is conducted every four hours. Finally all product is automatically placed on hold and does not ship until samples are pulled and analyzed from each production run. Then and only then will product be free to ship to customers.
Our goal at American Italian Pasta Company is to produce the highest quality, best tasting product that is affordable for our customers.
Taste Tests
Anne B sent "Just a quick note to tell you about a recent gluten-free baking experience from my trial and error kitchen!
I prepared Bob's Red Mill Cornbread Mix according to package directions, using 2% milk, real eggs, and vegetable oil. Trying to follow the directions exactly, I let the ingredients come to room temperature first. The resulting batter was thicker than traditional cornbread mixture. As I did not have the specified 9" X 9" dark finish baking pan, I spooned the mix into eighteen muffin cups. The batter had sharp peaks and I was unsure if I should smooth them out, so I didn't. I did let the batter "rest" a few minutes in the cups before baking, as with muffins. This resulted in some very interesting looking baked goods with spikes! But they tasted good, with a slightly sweet flavor and pleasant grainy texture. Great with fresh veggies!
The mix is labeled wheat free, gluten free, dairy free and casein free. I bought it at Kroger, although I've seen Bob's gluten free products at Whole Foods and Drug Emporium, also.
Articles and Abstracts
Five Things Everyone Should Know about Celiac Disease and Quality of Life
For many people, being diagnosed with celiac disease (CD) brings a feeling of relief and the end to a long, frustrating road of unknowns. However, along with the relief, the diagnosis can also bring more questions including, "What kind of life am I going to have now?"
The answer to that question is "It depends." The official recommendation of the American Gastroenterological Association Institute (2006) regarding the treatment of CD is strict compliance to a gluten-free diet (GFD). While being diagnosed with CD may be out of your hands, the quality of life you experience after diagnosis may be within your control largely based on your adherence to a GFD.
Based on research, following are five things you should know about CD and quality of life.
The five points covered are:
1) You will probably feel better after implementing a GFD...at least for awhile.
2) To keep feeling better, you need to stay on a GFD for the long-term and be strictly compliant.
3) Your perception of how compliant you are may be skewed.
4) Some people may have an easier time adhering to a GFD, others may be at risk for non-adherence.
5) To keep feeling better and increase the likelihood of compliance over the long-term, it is important to seek support, education, and follow-up.
The complete article can be found on the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness website here

I can't wait to get mine! I really hope it comes today, I might go crazy if it doesn't.
Got mine in the mail today! I love the illustrations.
Will need to check my mail tomorrow, looking forward to it!
You'll never see the light if you're in someone else's shadow, or said another way, life is like a dog sled team, if you're not the lead dog, the scenery never changes
I was hoping to get mine today- don't think it's going to show though. Still, I am in CA, so it should be showing up soon!
I'll probably be waiting a while for mine to go by Media Mail to the East Coast. I just know that it's worth the wait tho!

Yay! It actually showed up this afternoon. Great pictures in there, and really an invaluable resource- especially for people who don't have a lot of kitchen experience. Poor Mark must have signed mine early-on- the signature is very neat and legible.
I got mine yesterday. I love the quality of the paper! I'm going to start reading it right now.
Read The Declaration - End the (grain) Fed - My Primal Journeys
International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers
Ordered mine today. How long on the average has it been taking to arrive? Are all the books autographed and how is the poster? Hoping to see my book at the end of the week. I'm in Washington so should be a short trip.
