Erie Snapshot: College graduations in the Erie region
When the coursework is done and the grades are in, one educational milestone remains for thousands of college graduates in the Erie region: commencement.
At Penn State Behrend's ceremony, graduate Mohammed Al-Llami, 27, of Erie, had a big smile on his face after receiving his degree in mechanical engineering technology at Erie Insurance Arena.
"I'm so proud and excited and looking forward (to) trying to find a job," he said. "I'm looking to start my own small business."
Gannon University graduate Laura N. Wojnarowski, 22, of Millcreek Township, was receiving one of the 768 degrees conferred by the university at Erie Insurance Arena. She was also one of many who had decorated their mortarboards, a ritual for many in her major.
Her bedazzled cap read "LAURA BSN" to reflect her bachelor of science in nursing degree. "It's easy to find," Wojnarowski said. "I wanted to decorate it, but my mom is the creative one, so she helped."
At Mercyhurst University's ceremony at the Bayfront Convention Center, university archivist and librarian Earleen Glaser joined other faculty and staff in applauding undergraduates as they filed into the building, an activity that she said was "a long tradition." One of those graduates, Ellen Wilson, 22, of Akron, Ohio, reflected on finishing her college degree while she waited for the ceremony to begin.
"It's bittersweet," she said. "You learn so much, but you never want to give up the friends you've met."
Most of the local universities held their spring commencements in May, although LECOM will hold its commencement today.

4B Goes Wildby Jamie Gilson
Mr. Star broke the news gently. "Well, 4B," he said, "it appears we're going to do it."It was the talk of last year's fourth, especially the part about the catfish between the principal's sheets. It is the good-behavior reward for this year's fourth grade. It is Outdoor Education: three days at Camp Trotter in Wisconsin.From where Hobie Hanson sits -- at Central School in Stockton, Illinois -- it is bad news. Three days also means two nights, two nights far from home. The thought brings wooly-worms to his stomach and floods his head with what-ifs. As things turn out, however, Outdoor Education lives up to its name, and in ways that neither Hobie nor his friends expect.The class, and sub, that kept readers breathless in Thirteen Ways to Sink a Sub are back for another rousing adventure, filled with the sights, sounds, tastes, and, yes, smells familiar to veteran campers everywhere.
Bug in a Rugby Jamie Gilson
Seven-year-old Richard is self-conscious when he receives a pair of purple pants from his aunt and uncle and has to wear them to school, but he is even more worried when his uncle shows up for a visit to his classroom.
Chess! I Love It I Love It I Love It!by Jamie Gilson
When second-grader Richard and three other members of the Sumac School Chess Club competes in their first tournament, they each learn something about luck, concentration, and teamwork.
Do Bananas Chew Gum?by Jamie Gilson Michael Garland
Sam has made it most of the way through sixth grade, barely able to read and write, but now Sam's family have moved again and he is faced with the prospect of attending a new school. How long will he be able to keep his problem secret?
Double Dog Dareby Jamie Gilson
The fifth grade year gets off to a busy start as one student returns from winning a national Miss Pre-Teen Personality contest, a new girl with some interesting knowledge arrives, jealousy gets a grip on one particular student, and an "experiment" to see who's smart is conducted.
Gotcha!by Jamie Gilson
While trying to learn about spiders in Mrs. Zookey's class, Richard becomes the target of Patrick the Pest's pranks.

Hobie Hanson, Greatest Hero of the Mallby Anita Riggio Jamie Gilson
When his town is devastated by a flood, Hobie's fifth grade class is forced to meet every day in the shopping mall.
It Goes Eeeeeeeeeeeee!by Jamie Gilson
Patrick, the new boy in Richard's class, is always causing trouble, but his work on a science project about bats helps him make new friends.
My Teacher Is an Idiomby Jamie Gilson
With a friend like Patrick, who needs enemies? Patrick is a showoff and a prankster, and Richard is his usual target. Resolved not to let Patrick get him in trouble, Richard is sucked in by The Mosquito, a way to eat red Jell-O through a straw, and of course trouble ensues. Complications arise when the new girl from France thinks the boys are seriously injured, and miscommunication is all too easy when idioms in English and in French are taken literally. The shifting alliances, interests, and concerns of second-graders are authentically and humorously depicted in this easy-to-read school story.
Soccer Circusby Jamie Gilson
If Nick and I got caught, we wouldn't even play tomorrow. It always counts when you do something wrong without meaning to. I just forgot about the dentist. I didn't mean to ride through the cement. I didn't mean for the Jell-O and shrimp to splash into the pool. I didn't plan to be standing here in the hall with a girl at midnight. A lock clicked close by. A knob turned. It was too late to run. There was no place to hide. I wondered if Toby would let me ride his Big Wheel to school when Dad took my bike away.
Stink Alleyby Jamie Gilson
In this authentic and entertaining story of 17th-century Holland, 12-year-old Lizzie finds that her undisciplined tongue and willful spirit are always getting her in trouble. Her kitchen craft has landed her a job cooking for a Dutch family, whose precocious eight-year-old son has a nose for trouble even greater than Lizzy's own.
Thirteen Ways to Sink a Subby Jamie Gilson
At last, some real luck - 4B gets a substitute teacher. And double luck - she's never even taught a class before. A sinkable sub!
Wagon Train 911by Jamie Gilson
As a school project, fifth graders recreate a westward trek to Oregon with all the perils that faced real pioneers.

This frame was specially designed for genuine power women. Graceful design and expressiveness are interspersed with classical chic. Eyewear is in. Full rim is extremely popular, because you feel that you get more eyeglass for your money. It is not just about their resilience, but also about the visibility of material and design, which are of the highest quality. Aviator eyewear has always been one of the summer must-haves. It is a timeless eye-catcher and tops the hit list of the "classics". The noble metal frame allows for filigree lines and creates an extraordinary lightness in appearance.

They suit everything in your wardrobe and never go out of fashion. You can rely on the guaranteed UV400 protection, for all the sunglasses in our shop.

In brief: Holder intervenes in gay man's deportation case
WASHINGTON – Attorney General Eric Holder took the rare step Thursday of asking an immigration judicial panel to reconsider the case of a gay man they've cleared for deportation.
Holder set aside the Board of Immigration Appeals ruling allowing the deportation of Paul Wilson Dorman, a gay man illegally in the U.S. Dorman wants to stay in the country with his partner, with whom he celebrated a civil union in New Jersey.
The Board of Immigration Appeals judges had ruled against Dorman on the basis of the Defense of Marriage Act, which defines marriage as between a man and a woman.
Holder asked the judges to reconsider the case and determine whether Dorman can be considered a spouse under New Jersey law and whether he would be a spouse under immigration law were it not for the Defense of Marriage Act, according to a copy of Holder's decision.
The Obama administration in February said it would no longer defend the Defense of Marriage Act in court.
House votes to expand offshore energy exploration
WASHINGTON – With high gas prices becoming a hot political issue, the House on Thursday passed legislation that would expand offshore energy exploration, even though Congress has yet to pass new drilling safeguards a year after the massive Gulf of Mexico spill.
The Republican-sponsored measure would open the Virginia coast to drilling and expand production in the Gulf of Mexico, but it faces opposition from the White House and long odds against passage in the Democratic-controlled Senate.
Lawmakers from both parties are eager to show they feel the public's pain at the pump – and highlight their party's differences over energy policy – even though there are limits to what they can do to provide immediate relief.
House approval of the "Restarting American Offshore Leasing Now Act" comes after the BP oil spill disaster a year ago led the Obama administration to back off plans to open the eastern gulf and portions of the Atlantic Coast to oil and gas exploration
Tony winner Arthur Laurents dies at 93 after short illness
Los Angeles – Arthur Laurents, a Tony Award-winning playwright and director who wrote the books for the classic Broadway musicals "West Side Story" and "Gypsy" and later wrote the hit movies "The Way We Were" and "The Turning Point," died Thursday. He was believed to be 93.
Laurents died in his sleep at his home in New York City after a short illness, said his agent, Jonathan Lomma.
For his work on Broadway over more than six decades, Laurents won two Tony Awards – in 1968 as author of the book for best musical Tony winner "Hallelujah, Baby!" and in 1984 as best director of a musical for "La Cage aux Folles."
But he is best known for writing the books for "West Side Story" and "Gypsy," both of which were Tony Award nominees for best musical and later were turned into movies.
Database makes it easier to track art looted by Nazis
WASHINGTON – Officials at the National Archives say it's now easier than ever to trace the history of works of art and other cultural artifacts looted by the Nazis.
The Archives partnered Thursday with 10 other archival institutions in seven countries to launch an online database that provides access to digitized records of looted treasures.
Nazis confiscated millions of pieces of art, religious treasures and other culturally significant items throughout Europe in the dozen years between Adolf Hitler's rise to power and the end of World War II. Many have never been returned to their rightful owners.
James Hastings of the Archives says researchers in the past were sometimes forced to travel from country to country to trace a single item. Now the records can be studied from anywhere.

plz give some tips on freezing dahi vadas vegetables tomato puree paranthas etc.
Plato Reply:
September 23rd, 2010 at 8:20 am
I usually freeze dahi vadas after T fry them. Cool * freeze them in a single layer till completely frozen. And then I wrap them in press'nseal in packs of 6 & store them in a freezer bag in the freezer. Once they are in the dahi, they can be frozen in freezer safe containers, after placing some saran wrap or press'nsea; on the container, but I feel the dahi gets very watery when they are thawed. I mean that I find that the water actually separates & is kind of not as good as they were before freezing.
urvi Reply:
September 28th, 2010 at 7:29 am
I follow the following steps for freezing vadas:
– Soak them in water after they are fried.
– Squeeze all water from the wadas after they have been soaking for few minutes.
– Arrange in a air tight container and freeze them.
– Thaw them when you need it.
– I would Dahi to the vadas only when I am ready to serve it.
For vegetables,
Usually you can freeze all the vegetables in air tight sealed ziploc bags or any air tight plastic bags. I usually cut the veggies in desired size and freeze it.
For purees,
Can store it in air tight containers or freeze it in ice trays. Once they are frozen, remove from ice trays and store it in ziploc bags or any plastic bag. Can use the frozen cube as and when required.
For Paranthas,
Let them cool at room temperature after they are done, cover it in foil paper together and put the stack in the plastic bag & freeze it. I have also come across some relatives who half cook the paranthas and freeze it, so when they require it, they heat it on tava and still find it freshly made.
Hope that helps.

To me what is annoying is not being able to hear Anuja clearly many times, especially on Tip Tuesdays! Giggling is fine! That's the way most women are.

Hi Hetal Anuja,
Another tip for removing garlic and onion odors from fingers which has worked for me, is to rub your fingers with some lemon juice or tamarind water for sometime. i dont use a lot, just a few teaspoonfuls. And then ofcourse wash the lemon juice off with water ! I hope this works out for others too ! Thanks.

A Philadelphia judge has awarded $75,000 in damages to a city police officer who sued claiming superiors retaliated against him after he complained of shoddy asbestos removal at the Police Athletic League center he managed.
Thursday's award by Common Pleas Court Judge John Milton Younge followed a Feb. 27 verdict by a trial jury in the whistle-blower suit by Officer Paul Zenak against the Police Department and city.
Younge ordered that Zenak, 44, a 23-year veteran officer, be returned to his job as manager of the PAL center at Wissinoming United Methodist Church, 4419 Comly St., and be reimbursed $75,000 for 271.5 days of leave he used after suing and $411 in medical expenses.

makes a noticeable difference!
By one love girl
from Puyallup, Wa
I always come back to this product! It's light weight but works well for smoothing my complexion. I love to try different products and have spent a lot more money on anti-aging products but honestly think this works better than most expensive brands I've tried. Whenever I go back to this, people always say how good my skin looks. I don't know why I stray. Nothing is a miracle but this definitely makes a difference for me.

I like Loreal but this is not for me. I got acne on T zone after using this for 3 days. Too strong sent is irritating for me.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Good sunblock
By Swimmer
from New York
I like this product. I haven't seen any results that I could tell with this, other than not getting burned in the sun. Maybe the retinol in this product is not effective, because normally I feel tingling in my skin when I use retinol products and there is no tingling with this product. Usually, avobenzene products make my eyes burn. There is no burning with this product. I recommend it as a nice smelling, mild sunscreen to wear under makeup. It also has a high SPF and is not irritating.
Wonderful moisturizer
By Kathy
from Rochester, NY
In combination with other Revitalift Products, this is perfect after serum in the morning, then I use L'Oreal's primer, and my makeup has never stayed on so well.
Surprising results
By 50's and lovin it
from upstate, ny
I bought this product due to the glowing reviews it got. It smelled great and went on very smoothly. Within a few days I noticed my face got more wrinkled looking and very dry patches on the sides of my temples. Using this cream made my skin too tight and the wrinkles looked deep set in. Not the results I was looking for at all. I went back to using L'oreal's revitalift night cream and day cream with wonderful results. Creamier and excellent moisturizer for my skin.

from Hardy, Ar.
I've only used this lotion for a couple of weeks and it's already obvious that's it's helping my skin. And it feels wonderful. I will continue using this product.
So light, it's ideal to use daily and under makeup. Smooth gently onto face and neck until thoroughly absorbed. Use in the AM alone or layer as needed. Apply prior to sun exposure.

Students approved of the new look of Horace Mann Middle School.
"It's so much better," eighth-grader Erin Loe, 14, said. "It just feels up top."
Students and teachers have endured a lengthy, $3.2 million overhaul of the campus originally built between 1927 and 1939. The project was part of a nearly $108 million bond package voters approved in 2003.
For the most part, campus life will return to normal in the more modern-looking building after spring break.
"The place looks a whole lot cleaner," seventh-grader Ashton Tillman, 12, said.
Renovations came to an end this week.
A few minor details remain, including some touch-up work and cleaning that crews will finish over spring break, said Royse Phillips, assistant construction manager for Amarillo Independent School District.
Repairs to the parking lot will take place with consistently warmer weather, said Wiley Hicks Jr. of Wiley Hicks, Jr. General Contractor.
Construction started in August 2005. During construction, classes and offices were shuffled around the building.
"It's been hard," Principal Roscoe Guest said. "The parents and the kids, they're adaptable."
Last school year, classes could not meet on the second floor because of ongoing renovations. This school year, all the second floor classrooms opened up, but the first floor was off limits because of construction. Even the administrative offices were moved upstairs.
In some cases, administrators had to conduct a few parent meetings in the parking lot the parents could not get to the second floor. Teachers had to split classrooms, Guest said.
"It's kind of confusing," Tillman said. "You get the hang of it."
Eighth-grader Dirvaun Penns, 14, said the completed renovations will give the campus a better image.
"It's better than it was," Penns said. "People really couldn't move around. It was hard to get from class to class."
Newly tiled and freshly painted restrooms are a nice change from the old, grungy restrooms, he said.
A new, short brick wall stands in front of the school, creating a courtyard.
Entry ways now have metal frames and metal doors.
A new terrazzo floor covers the main walkways. Mark Zanchettin of the Zanchettin Brothers crafted a buffalo, the school's mascot, in the terrazzo floor near the main entrance.
The campus no longer has lockers, which eighth-grader Jacob Mota, 14, said he misses.
New laminate wall panels cover the old plaster walls in the hallways and classrooms.
Classrooms have new white marker boards, new vinyl tile floors and updated wiring. Boxes for electrical outlets no longer sit on top of the wall, but were recessed into the wall, Wiley Hicks Jr. said.
Campus restrooms, handrails for the stairs and doors all meet current standards for people with disabilities, Wiley Hicks Jr. said.
"It sure changes the entire facade of this school," said James Hicks, president of Wiley Hicks, Jr. General Contractor, which managed the project.

Brief Summary
Loa loa is one of the eight parasitic nematode (roundworm) species that account for most cases of filariasis in humans (this form of filariasis is sometimes known as loiasis), although it is responsible for less morbidity than are many of the other seven species (notably, Wuchereria bancrofti and Brugia malayi, which cause lymphatic filariasis, and Onchocerca volvulus, which causes onchocerciasis (river blindness)). Loa loa is endemic to Africa. (Centers for Disease Control Parasites and Health website) In particular, loiasis is really endemic to just a few Central and West African countries, where it afflicts around 20 million people (Hoerauf 2009). This nematode is often known as the African eye worm because the adult worm can sometimes be seen moving through the sclera (white portion) of the eye. Migration causes severe eye pain, inflammation, and sometimes blindness and may take a few minutes or up to several hours. Most cases of loiasis are asymptomatic. The first clinical signs may appear within a few months of infection, but often do not appear for more than a decade. (Padgett and Jacobsen 2008 and references therein)
The primary vectors for Loa loa filariasis are two day-biting Chrysops deerflies, C. silacea and C. dimidiata. During a blood meal, an infected fly introduces third-stage filarial larvae onto the skin of the human host, where they penetrate into the bite wound. The larvae develop into adults that commonly reside in subcutaneous tissue, where they can live for several years. The female worms measure 40 to 70 mm in length and 0.5 mm in diameter, whereas the males measure 30 to 34 mm in length and 0.35 to 0.43 mm in diameter. Adults produce microfilariae measuring 250 to 300 μm by 6 to 8 μm, which are sheathed and have diurnal periodicity. Microfilariae have been recovered from spinal fluids, urine, and sputum. During the day they are found in peripheral blood, but during the noncirculation phase, they are found in the lungs. The fly ingests microfilariae during a blood meal. After ingestion, the microfilariae lose their sheaths and migrate from the fly's midgut through the hemocoel to the thoracic muscles of the arthropod. There the microfilariae develop into first-stage larvae and subsequently into third-stage infective filariform larvae. The third-stage infective larvae migrate to the fly's proboscis and, just a few weeks after the microfilariae were ingested by the fly, can infect another human when the fly takes a blood meal. (Centers for Disease Control Parasites and Health website)
Loa loa inhabits rainforests in West Africa and equatorial Sudan.

Physical Description
Loa loa is cylindrical, has a cuticle with three main outer layers made of collagen and other compounds. The outer layers are non-cellular and are secreted by the epidermis. The cuticle layer protects the nematodes so they can invade the digestive tracts of animals. The worms molt four times, the first two before hatching, and then before their adult stage.
Nematodes have longitudinal muscles along the body wall. The muscles are obliquely arranged in bands. Dorsal, ventral and longitudinal nerve cords are connected to the main body of the muscle.
Loa loa adults are small, thin worms ranging in length from 20-70 mm long and 350-430 micrometers wide. Females are typically larger than males. The head of Loa loa is simple and lacks lips. The tail is blunt. Loa loa juveniles look similar to adults, but are much smaller.
Range length: 20 to 70 mm.
Other Physical Features: ectothermic ; homoiothermic; bilateral symmetry
Sexual Dimorphism: female larger; sexes shaped differently
- Barnes, R. 1987. Invertebrate Zoology. Orlando, Florida: Dryden Press.
- Brusca, R., G. Brusca. 2003. Invertebrates. Sunderland, Massachusetts: Sinauer Associates, Inc..
Loa loa live in areas with hot, wet climates, such as rainforests and swamps. They are transfered by tabinid flies to their human hosts, where they live in subcutaneous tissues, although they have been known to migrate deeper into the body.
Habitat Regions: tropical ; freshwater
Terrestrial Biomes: rainforest
Aquatic Biomes: lakes and ponds; rivers and streams; temporary pools
Wetlands: marsh ; swamp
Other Habitat Features: urban ; suburban ; agricultural ; riparian
- Gardon, J., N. Gardon-Wendel, Demanga-Ngangue, J. Kamgno, J. Chippaux. 1997. Serious reactions after mass treatment of onchocerciasis with ivermectin in an area endemic for Loa loa infection. Lancet, 350: 18-22.
Trophic Strategy
Loa loa is an obligate endoparasite, feeding on fluids in the tissues of humans. Pharyngeal glands and intestinal epithelium produce digestive enzymes to feed on the hosts' body fluids. Extracellular digestion begins within the lumen and is finished intracellularly. Tabanid flies serve as intermediate hosts.
Animal Foods: body fluids
Primary Diet: carnivore (Eats body fluids)
Loa loa is an obligate endoparasite, feeding on fluids in the tissues of humans. Tabanid flies serve as intermediate hosts.
Ecosystem Impact: parasite
Species Used as Host:
- Tabanidae
- Homo sapiens
These parasites are usually not preyed on directly, but are ingested. Larval mortality is high as most of the parasites do not reach appropriate hosts.
Life History and Behavior
Nematodes within the Secernentea have phasmids, which are unicellular glands. Phasmids likely function as chemoreceptors. Females may produce pheromones to attract males.
Nematodes in general have papillae, setae and amphids as the main sense organs. Setae detect motion (mechanoreceptors), while amphids detect chemicals (chemoreceptors).
Communication Channels: tactile ; chemical
Other Communication Modes: pheromones
Perception Channels: tactile ; chemical
Life Cycle
After mating, female Loa loa give birth to microfilariae. The microfilariae migrate into the blood stream. At this stage, they can be ingested by any number of deer fly species that feed on the infected host. In the fly, the microfilariae develop in the fat body until reaching the juvenile stage. The infective juvenile Loa loa move to the mouthparts of the fly so that when it slices open a human to feed, the Loa loa may again invade a human host. After a year of development in their definitive host, the Loa loa are adults that may begin the cycle anew.
Life Expectancy
Adults may live up to 15 years or more.
Females may produce a phermomone to attract males. The male coils around a female with his curved area over the female genital pore. The gubernaculum, made of cuticle tissue, guides spicules which extend through the cloaca and anus. Males use spicules to hold the female during copulation. Nematode sperm are amoeboid-like and lack flagella.
Key Reproductive Features: sexual ; fertilization (Internal ); ovoviviparous
Parental Investment: pre-fertilization (Provisioning)

Relevance to Humans and Ecosystems
Loa loa is a serious parasite of humans in rural areas of West Africa. When Loa loa migrate into deeper tissues of a host, they can cause encephalitis, sometimes leading to death. Other pathogenic effects include joint pain caused by swelling when a worm stays near a joint for a period of time and damage to the eyes as the worm crawls through the cornea and conjunctive tissues.
Negative Impacts: injures humans (causes disease in humans )

Loa loa
Loa loa is the filarial nematode (roundworm) species that causes Loa loa filariasis. It is commonly known as the "eye worm". Its geographic distribution includes Africa and India.[1]
L. loa is one of three parasitic filarial nematodes that cause subcutaneous filariasis in humans. The two other filarial nematodes are Mansonella streptocerca and Onchocerca volvulus (causes river blindness).
Maturing larvae and adults of the "eye worm" occupy the subcutaneous layer of the skin – the fat layer – of humans, causing disease. The young larvae develop in horseflies of the genus Chrysops (deer flies, yellow flies), including the species C. dimidiata and C. silacea, which infect humans by biting them.
Loa loa worms have a simple body including a head, body, and tail. Males range from 20mm to 34mm long and 350μm to 430μm wide. Females range from 20mm to 70mm long and are about 425μm wide.[1]
Life cycle[edit]
Three species involved in the life cycle include the parasite Loa loa, the fly vector, and the human host:[2]
- A vector fly bites an infected human host and ingests microfilariae.
- Microfilariae move to the fat body of the insect host.
- Microfilariae develop into first stage larvae, second stage, then third stage larvae.
- Third stage larvae (infective) travel to the proboscis of fly.
- An infected vector fly bites an uninfected human host and the third stage larvae penetrates the skin and enters human subcutaneous tissue.
- Larvae mature into adults, who produce microfilariae that have been found in spinal fluid, urine, peripheral blood, and lungs.
Loa loa parasites infect human hosts by travelling from the entry site through subcutaneous tissues and causing inflammation in the skin wherever they travel. If a parasite stops in one place for a short period of time, the human host will suffer from local inflammation known as Calabar swellings. These are localized, tense, inflammatory pruritic subcutaneous edema seen in joints of extremities, lasting for 1–3 days. They represent areas of angioedema resulting from a host response to allergens released by the maturating worm and its metabolic products.[3] Calabar swellings often occur in the wrist and ankle joints but disappear as soon as the parasite begins to move again. Parasites can also travel through and infect the eye, causing the swelling of the eye. Common symptoms include itching, joint pain, fatigue, and death.[1]
Diagnosis and treatment[edit]
The main methods of diagnosis include the presence of microfilariae in the blood, the presence of a worm in the eye, and the presence of skin swellings. Surgical removal of the worm can easily be performed. The common treatment for the disease is the use of the drug Ivermectin.[1]
Ivermectin has become the most common antiparasitic agent used worldwide but can lead to residual microfilarial load when given in the management of loiasis. High microfilarial loads should be decreased by a course of ivermectin, a prolonged administration of albendazole, or cytapheresis sessions to prevent occurrence of serious adverse events, including fatal encephalopathy induced by dying microfilariae. Cytapheresis is helpful in decreasing very high microfilarial loads up to 75%. Diethylcarbamazine kills both microfilariae and adult worms but has more severe side effects and can be fatal.

Posted on 07/08/2011 12:04:43 PM PDT by Reaganite Republican
yet they never strayed far from the basic elements/roots that made the trio so popular and distinctive in the first place.
"We got word that Mick Jagger heard our first album and liked it. And he wanted us to open for the Stones in Hawaii. That just blew us away.
But the next thing I heard was that Stevie Wonder opened for them here in the States and actually got booed at one show. So I was scared to death...
We get onstage in Hawaii with our cowboy hats, boots and jeans and you could hear a pin drop. Somebody went, Oh no, theyre a country band..."
I absolutely love ZZ Top, every album-every song. If you're not familiar with some of the early 70s stuff, do yourself a favor and check it out- more of a raw, Texas country-rock.
After over 40 years, the band continues to tour and record music. ZZ Top has sold more than 50 million albums...
Here from 1979's Degüello... covering Isaac Hayes:
Yeah, and I still think the girl with the long blond hair in this video is one of the all time hottest ever...any video.....wow: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EXXZVdUJ98
Their charm is based precisely on not being innovative, but on consistently providing a steady diet of bluesy boogie-rock year in and year out for 40+ years.
i always liked the fact that the only band member with no beard is named Frank Beard.
I know that is not a sophisticated joke, but I still like it....
It changes constantly, but this my current favorite ZZ Top riff:
Pull on those strings with chip-on-shoulder 'tude.
Gotta love that thundering bass rolling underneath the whole thing, as well.
Smokin' Lucky Strikes and wearin' nylons, too
HEY... that's a cool picture!
ZZ Top - Beer Drinkers and Hell Raisers
I think "Fool For Your Stockings" is my ZZ Top favorite.
I can't believe "Disco Duck" didn't make the cut...what's wrong with these people?!
Well, a lot of ZZ Top purtists hate the synthesizer stuff... it's still controversial for some
IMHO they pushed the envelope in a number of directions over the years without losing touch of the root sound- but I definitely consider them innovative, particularly withing this genre- vs say, the Fab T Birds for Stevie Ray Vaughn
Never knew this one until college... that was when I started getting into their older stuff
And, for extra non-existent credit (except in your own trivia-loging mind) -
Which ZZ Top song was also known as "The God Drums" of Lud?
Yeah, those were good videos back then. I guess they got too expensive. I liked Van Halen's "JUMP" too. Good for when I am running at the gym too.......http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlq0lYB3iSM
Do you mean Jimmie Lee Vaughn with the Fab T-Birds?
Great blues tune - nice choice. Playing along to it right now... thanks!
Saw them in 73/4. Tres-Hombres top 10 of all time albums. I really miss those albums that were good beginning to end.
Not really, referring to Stevie as a TX blues rocker of a similar ilk, as are the FTBs imho
But ZZ Top was always unique
That was the time to see them, beat my by 6 years and pre hiatus, I would have loved to see them in a smaller setting
Ahh yes, Kimberly... March '81, I believe ;-) Gina Tomasino was pretty sharp as well. From the top of the line models in all their videos right down to the spinning fuzzy guitars, ZZ Top epitomizes rock and roll class.
I miss the 80's.
I never hear a song from or an interview with ZZ Top that doesn't impress me more.
One thing that helps is they stay strong. I saw them on the VH1 tribute a few years back. They blasted out Gimme All You're Lovin' and Cheap Sunglasses as great as they ever did, shaming Nickelback's attempt at Sharp Dressed Man. Then Heart came up, Nancy did the guitar all right, but Anne just couldn't do the vocals anymore, really blew Crazy on You. They should have retired a while ago.
"Long Distance Boogie" from the Fandango album — recorded live, hot and righteous~!
I miss the 80's.
The 80s were good times for a single guy living in Southern CA. Except I don't know how I made it through without so much as a cold sore....if ya know what I mean. I am not gay (on the contrary, lots of women during the 80s for me) but this movie captures the beginning of a scary time back then.....a great movie:
Ding Ding Ding! We have a winner ;-) Sorry for the late reply but wanted to recognize your correct answer. Double Extra-Points for the graphic ;-)
The song appears in Stephen King's novel, The Dark Tower III: The Waste Lands, where in the series's post-apocalyptic alternate reality of Mid-World, the song's looped percussion intro, played via a large PA system in the decaying city of Lud, is referred to as "the God Drums".
"Mexican Blackbird" has to be one of the funniest songs ever written.
Great song. Back at you: What song was Billy Gibbons playing on the TV show Bones when Jack asked him for his blessing to marry his daughter?
Love me some ZZTop. Got to see them in concert in '86 in Shreveport, LA (Afterburner tour).
That's the one I was originally going to post, to be honest... then I decided it might not be that great for general consumption lol
Drive that ole Chrysler to Mexico, boy...

Patient-Centered Outcomes Research (PCOR)What is PCOR?
Patient-Centered Outcomes Research (PCOR) incorporates the realities that treatment outcomes may be different in different individuals and that patients' priorities and goals of treatment also vary. PCOR relies on input from patients and families as well as healthcare professionals.
Background: UTMB was awarded a $4.97 million dollar grant (R24HS022134) in 2013 from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) to conduct patient-centered outcomes research. AHRQ's mission is to produce evidence to make health care safer, higher quality, more accessible, equitable, and affordable, and to work with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and other partners to make sure that the evidence is understood and used. Dispersed over a five-year period, this federal grant is being used to establish the infrastructure for a center on Patient-Centered Outcomes Research in the Elderly at UTMB. Read more about the mission of our center.

What advice would you give someone starting this project? If you never machine quilted before, take the time to learn first. I faked my way through about half the quilt, then took the time to watch lessons from the Craftsy course, "Design it, Quilt it: Free form techniques."By the second lesson, I had improved tremendously. The instruction in this course is worth every penny I paid for it. Cindy Needham, the instructor "rescued" my quilt and gave me the will to complete it.
Whohoo! What a great hop - state(s) wide over a long period. My kind of thing. Alas, I moved from MD 3 yrs ago. Love your quilt. And congrats on the win!
Thank you. It was a great hop. I actually visited a bunch of other shops with fall theme/ color blocks to make a second one because it was so much fun.
Congratulations! Well deserved.
Thank you. As a proud creator of many UFO's, it was great to finish a project for a change.

Fair Wear Foundation (FWF) is an independent, non-profit organisation that works with companies and factories to improve labour conditions for garment workers.
FWF's 80 member companies represent over 120 brands, and are based in seven European countries; member products are sold in over 20,000 retail outlets in more than 80 countries around the world. FWF is active in 11 production countries in Asia, Europe and Africa.
FWF keeps track of the improvements made by the companies it works with. And through sharing expertise, social dialogue and strengthening industrial relations, FWF increases the effectiveness of the efforts made by companies.
Change requires a major joint effort. We therefore invite companies to join FWF and make a difference. If you're interested in how we can help you, send us an e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Good labour conditions are FWF's mission: make them part of yours!
Companies that produce and distribute products of which the main manufacturing process is sewing can join FWF and, depending on the direct influence they have with garment factories, become an FWF affiliate or FWF ambassador. Both affiliates and ambassadors of FWF work towards improving the labour conditions in factories and workshops where the 'cut-make-trim' stage takes place, all over the world. The basis of the collaboration between FWF and a member is the Code of Labour Practices. Eight labour standards form the core of the Code of Labour Practices. Members of FWF must comply with this Code of Labour Practices.
FWF works with three different types of membership. For more information, please see the Membership Types page
FWF's Guiding Principles
Supply chain responsibility = realising that the Code can only be fulfilled when sourcing companies, as well as factory management, actively pursue practices that support good working conditions.
