Nebraska student dresses each day like a different historical character or personal hero
Stella Ehrhart, 9, awakens with no particular plan about what she�ll wear today to school in Omaha, Neb. She eats breakfast, peeks in her mother�s closet, and spies a beaded turquoise dress�a style of clothing that reminds the youngster of one of her many civic-minded heroines, Guatemalan native rights activist Rigoberta Mench�. Tossing the dress over her white shirt and khaki pants, Stella reins in the excess fabric with a belt and sets off for Dundee Elementary School. �It was a spur-of-the-moment decision,� says the third-grader about dressing up one day last spring to portray Mench�, the 1992 Nobel Peace Prize winner. �It gets too complicated when you try to plan ahead. You�ve gotta have inspiration.� Every school day for two years, Stella has been inspired to arrive at class dressed as a different person she admires�from flag-maker Betsy Ross to primatologist Jane Goodall to Pam Ehrhart, her aunt who worked in crime prevention. The fashion parade began in 2011 on her second day as a second-grader. Preparing for school, Stella was thinking about �Little House on the Prairie� author Laura Ingalls Wilder and wondering, �If she looked in my closet, what would she pick to wear?� With her mother�s permission, Stella donned a long-sleeve white blouse under a sleeveless dress and added an apron. When teacher Shannon Roeder learned the story behind Stella�s fashion statement, she encouraged her student to let her know when she was dressing in character. Stella obliged. During second grade, she portrayed more than 160 admired and iconic people�primarily women�repeating nary a one. In third grade, she added another 50 individuals to her repertoire. Her costumes are simple and created with existing items from home. To portray poet Emily Dickinson, for instance, Stella added a pendant to her own basic black dress. To conjure jazz singer Billie Holiday, she wore the same dress and tucked a red paper flower behind her ear. Her depiction of actress Grace Kelly required more effort. Stella pinned up her hair, overlaid a pink satin dress with her grandmother�s lace, and added her mother�s pearls. For ideas, Stella reads biographies about current and historical figures and pores over the 1998 book �100 Most Important Women of the 20th Century,� a gift from a family friend. She also gets suggestions from her parents, Stephanie Anderson, 46, and Kevin Ehrhart, 51, who have theatrical backgrounds. �Her wheels are just spinning all the time,� says Anderson, about her daughter�s creative mind. At times, she has tried to curb Stella�s costume routine. Once, she convinced Stella to try planning outfits a week in advance. That didn�t last; it was the �inspiration� issue, Stella explains. For third grade, her mother insisted Stella allow herself to repeat characters. And in January, she got her daughter to wear school uniforms for a while. However, Stella�s classmates missed her costumes, Stella missed her creative outlet, and her teacher missed the impromptu class discussions that Stella�s outfits inspired about people in history and current events. �Stella brings a lot of learning to the classroom,� says teacher Shari Smith, 41. �Everybody�s always curious about who she is. It brings to light things we wouldn�t ordinarily talk about.� Women who stand up to social injustices hold a special place in Stella�s heart. Joan Baez: �She used music to help change the world,� Stella explains. Harriet Tubman: �She was freed as a slave and went back to free others.� Anne Frank: �Her diary was actually an autograph book.� Helen Keller: �She learned Braille so well.� Rosa Parks: �She wouldn�t give up her seat and got arrested.� Her classmates have their own favorites. Elena Conyers-Gaines, 9, loved when Stella surprised everyone by coming to school dressed like Virginia Holtzclaw, Stella�s classmate and best friend. �It shows that she thinks friendship is important,� Elena says. Stella doesn�t try to �become� her characters or let her outfits become a classroom distraction. �If you tried to be like them, it would interfere with class,� she explains respectfully. As a fourth-grader, Stella plans to continue dressing up daily if her teachers allow. Either way, she�ll keep learning about interesting people in history and the world. �I love to read,� she says.

<OTS%ruulet.let.ruu.nlCUNYVM.CUNY.EDU> PLEASE POST Call for Papers Workshop on LEXICAL SPECIFICATION and LEXICAL INSERTION Research Institute for Language and Speech University of Utrecht December 9 - 11, 1991 In December a workshop will be held in Utrecht on the issues of what type of lexical specifications we need in a generative grammar and by what principles this information is projected onto syntactic configurations, i.e. how lexical insertion is executed. A number of invited speakers have agreed to present their ideas on topics related to these questions. They include: Hans Bennis (Leiden), Joe Emonds (Washington-Seattle), Jane Grimshaw (Brandeis), Hubert Haider (Stuttgart), Lars Hellan (Trondheim), Rita Manzini (UC London), Bozena Rozwadowska (Wroclaw), Margaret Speas (Amherst), Edwin Williams (Princeton). The workshop will have a limited number of slots available for people who want to present 35-minute papers on issues covered by the topic description of the workshop (see below). Those who want to present a paper should submit an abstract (max. 2 pages) to the organizers no later than October 20, 1991. Notice of acceptance will be given very shortly afterwards. Organizing committee: Peter Coopmans, Martin Everaert, Jane Grimshaw For further information, please contact Research Institute for Language and Speech phone: 31-30-392006 University of Utrecht fax: 31-30-333380 Trans 10, 3512 JK Utrecht email: otslet.ruu.nl The Netherlands otshutruu59.bitnet TOPIC DESCRIPTION: Workshop on Lexical Specification and Lexical Insertion This workshop addresses the issues of what type of lexical specifications we need in a generative grammar and by what principles this information is projected onto configurations, i.e. how lexical insertion is executed. The workshop will particularly focus on the question of what the syntactic consequences are of choices that are made with respect to the lexical specifications of heads. The general assumption is that 'lexical insertion' means replacing a X-o position in a phrase-marker by a lexical formative. Simultaneous insertion of more than one X-o, as in the case of phrasal idioms, is probably exceptional. Lexical formatives contain inherent and contextual features. Through the projection of the contextual features of a X-o (= head) the structural properties of phrases are determined. Although the Projection Principle is one of the core principles of UG, very little explicit discussion has been devoted to determining what contextual features we have and what 'projection' actually means and how it is executed. Since Chomsky's Aspects several forms of lexical encoding have been proposed in the literature, such as 'subcategorization', 'selectional restrictions', 'theta grid/argument structure', 'predicate argument structure', 'grammatical function assignment', 'lexical conceptual structure', and more recently 'event structure'. It is clear that some of these notions are mutually incompatible, others are not, and that, furthermore, there is redundancy. Despite the work that has been done, it is still very much open to debate to what extent the lexical specifications that have been offered in the literature are necessary and sufficient to fully specify the structural configurations in which a head can appear. Specific questions that come to mind are: - How are theta roles mapped onto syntactic configurations? Through specific realization rules, universal mapping principles, or through mediation of aspectual marking? - To what extent are the types of lexical specifications autonomous, or are they linked? For instance is theta-specification linked to aspectual information or to specifications of Case information? - How is,in general, the projection part of the Projection Principle executed? - Should we distinguish inherent theta-grids and non-inherent theta-grids for semi-adjuncts? How is this encoded, and what syntactic consequences can be derived from this? - Do we need a lexical specification of aspectual information, and if so what would such a specification look like? - Is there a distinct level of lexical representation on which 'lexical collocational restrictions' are encoded? And if so, in what way are they expressed grammatically? - To what extent can subcategorization be reduced to other selectional properties of predicates?Mail to author|Respond to list|Read more issues|LINGUIST home page|Top of issue

June 11, 2005
Three members of the Eastern New Mexico University rodeo program have made their way to Casper, Wyo., this weekend for the College National Finals Rodeo.
Competition begins today and wraps up Saturday.
Seniors Dusty Higgins of Roswell and James Gililland of Tularosa and sophomore Brittany Bennett of Portales will represent ENMU in the national event. Higgins was the Southwest Region champion in bull riding, while Gililland and Bennett qualified with second-place region finishes in team roping and barrel racing, respectively.
Fifth-year coach David Browder is confident all three have a chance to do well and reach Saturday's short-go round.
"Our three kids have the type of experience and the skills and the horses to win their events," he said. "I expect all three of them to at least be in the short-go. I'm going to be disappointed if they aren't."
This is Higgins' second trip to the CNFR. He went three years ago as a freshman at New Mexico Junior College in Hobbs.
He narrowly missed a trip to the CNFR in 2004, his first year at ENMU, finishing third in the Southwest Region.
"The competition should be good, but I feel pretty good about my chances," Higgins said. "I have as good a chance as anybody."
Higgins said he has started up a business in Roswell this summer, but wouldn't mind being able to compete in rodeo for a living.
"If you can make a living doing what you want, there's no sense working," he said.
Gililland, a heeler in team roping, will compete with Tarleton State's Clayton Jackson. He won in two rodeos this spring for ENMU — combining with TSU's Matt Martin in the Tarleton State rodeo and with Jackson at Odessa College.
Bennett, a Dora High graduate, qualified for the short-go just twice in six spring rodeos at ENMU after placing first or second in all four rodeos during the fall season.
"I had a really good fall, but my winter and spring were pretty much terrible," she said. "I changed horseshoers before the last rodeo and that helped. I wish I would've done that earlier.
"I don't really know what to expect; it's obviously a big deal. We all start off on the same ground. We've all got three runs, and the top 15 come back for the short-go.
Browder said how her horse does is the key for Bennett.
"She's got a good shot at winning if her horse is feeling good," he said.

Hello! I've decided that, though I am perfectly happy with loose leaf tea, I'd like to add a brick or cake to my collection. The reasons are threefold:
1) Pressed tea looks cool.
2) I have never tried a large compressed tea, and am curious
3) I'd like a physical example to show my fellow tea-fans.
To whit I am trying to go for a 2009 Dayi Old Cha Ripe Pu-erh Brick. I can't link due to forum rules (I need like 10 posts and 30 days), but it's up on Puerh shop.
Unfortunately, Pu'er shop has sold fakes in the past, and this is a 5 year old Dayi for only 21 bucks. Yay or Nay?
I'll also be investing in a pick.
I'm also looking at the "American Hao" brand 1005 "Ripe Pu-erh Brick" - one of those pre-cut "chocolate bar" style things. They're about 8g each. My tea pot brews at 500ml - that shouldn't have any downsides should it? I typically only use 1g of loose puer (or any loose tea) to 100ml of water in such a pot. Mass aside, is this a respectable tea? The pre-measured portion is attractive for when I'm lazy. Also, it's a pretty cool looking thing.
Final Q: What about those nest shape tuo's of shupu? They're 5g each, and would make a nice match for my pot. Do those generally have a reputation for being worthwhile? They're very inexpensive.

ON THIS PAGE: You will find a list of the common tests, procedures, and scans that doctors can use to find out what's wrong and identify the cause of the problem. To see other pages, use the menu on the side of your screen.
Doctors use many tests to diagnose Ewing sarcoma and find out if it has spread to another part of the body, called metastasis. Some tests may also determine which treatments may be the most effective. For most types of cancer, a biopsy is the only way to make a definitive diagnosis of cancer. If a biopsy is not possible, the doctor may suggest other tests that will help make a diagnosis. Imaging tests may be used to find out whether the tumor has spread.
This list describes options for diagnosing this type of cancer, and not all tests listed will be used for every person. Your child's doctor may consider these factors when choosing a diagnostic test:
Age and medical condition
Type of tumor suspected
Signs and symptoms
Previous test results
In addition to a physical examination, the following tests may be used to diagnose Ewing sarcoma:
- Blood tests. A complete blood count (CBC) is a blood test that counts the number of each type of blood cell. Abnormal levels of white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets can be a sign that the tumor has spread. The doctor may also check liver and kidney function and look for high levels of a particular blood enzyme called lactate dehydrogenase or LDH, which sometimes helps signal the presence of a tumor in the body.
Imaging tests
X-ray. An x-ray is way to create a picture of the organs and tissues inside of the body, using a small amount of radiation. Doctors can usually find bone tumors with an x-ray.
Bone scan. A bone scan uses a radioactive tracer to look at the inside of the bones. The tracer is injected into a patient's vein. It collects in areas of the bone and is detected by a special camera. Healthy bone appears gray to the camera, and areas of injury, such as those caused by a tumor, appear dark.
Computed tomography (CT or CAT) scan. A CT scan creates a three-dimensional picture of the inside of the body with an x-ray machine. A computer then combines these images into a detailed, cross-sectional view that shows any abnormalities or tumors. For Ewing sarcoma, a CT scan of the chest will be done to see if the tumor has spread to the lungs. A CT scan can also be used to measure the tumor's size. Sometimes, a special dye called a contrast medium is given before the scan to provide better detail on the image. This dye can be injected into a patient's vein or given as a liquid to swallow.
Positron emission tomography (PET) scan. A PET scan is a way to create pictures of organs and tissues inside the body. A small amount of a radioactive sugar substance is injected into the patient's body. This sugar substance is taken up by cells that use the most energy. Because cancer tends to use energy actively, it absorbs more of the radioactive substance. A scanner then detects this substance to produce images of the inside of the body. For Ewing sarcoma, an integrated PET/CT scan is often more sensitive than a PET scan alone.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). An MRI uses magnetic fields, not x-rays, to produce detailed images of the body. MRI can also be used to measure the tumor's size. A special dye called a contrast medium is given before the scan to create a clearer picture. This dye can be injected into a patient's vein or given as a liquid to swallow.
Surgical tests
Biopsy. A biopsy is the removal of a small amount of tissue for examination under a microscope. If the tumor is in an arm or leg, an orthopedic oncologist or an interventional radiologist who has experience with Ewing sarcoma should perform the biopsy. An orthopedic oncologist is a doctor who specializes in cancers of the musculoskeletal system.
During the procedure, the doctor may take a sample of the tumor, bone marrow (see below), or both. Other tests can suggest that cancer is present, but only a biopsy can make a definite diagnosis. A pathologist then analyzes the sample(s) removed during the biopsy. A pathologist is a doctor who specializes in interpreting laboratory tests and evaluating cells, tissues, and organs to diagnose disease.
Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy. These two procedures are similar and often done at the same time to examine the bone marrow. Bone marrow has both a solid and a liquid part. A bone marrow aspiration removes a sample of the fluid with a needle. A bone marrow biopsy is the removal of a small amount of solid tissue using a needle.
A pathologist then analyzes the sample(s). A common site for a bone marrow aspiration and biopsy is the hipbone in the lower back. The skin in that area is usually numbed with medication beforehand, and other types medication to block the awareness of pain may be used.
Other laboratory tests
Other laboratory tests may be done on the tissue sample(s) removed during a biopsy to learn more about the tumor.
Immunohistochemistry. This test detects Ewing sarcoma cells in the tissue sample.
Cytogenetic tests and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). These tests find out if the genetic changes that characterize Ewing sarcoma cells are present in the sample.
After diagnostic tests are done, your child's doctor will review all of the results with you and your child. If the diagnosis is cancer, these results also help the doctor describe the cancer; this is called staging.
The next section in this guide is Stages, and it explains the system doctors use to describe the extent of the disease. Or, use the menu on the side of your screen to choose another section to continue reading this guide.

Pacing Diana - Page 6
Approaching the Pole Creek Aid Station (mile 80), I ran ahead and asked the volunteers if they knew who might be behind us. Apparently it was Jared Campbell, who had been 20 minutes behind us at Sherman.
"Good morning, Pole Creek Aid!" Diana exclaimed as she crested the hill. The aid workers shouted encouragement. For a moment, they thought I was the leader, but I told them I was the pacer. She—she—is the first runner. She drank a few ounces of flat Coke. She had not spoken a full sentence to me in hours, but thanked the aid-station volunteers. I liked the strong sound of her voice. It is 2 a.m.
Another climb greeted us out of Pole Creek. We walked the whole way, even the runnable spots that we had scouted. I looked behind and did not see lights. The talk (from me) inevitably turned to how badly I wanted the sun to come up. "You'd think the goddamn sun will come up already!" I shouted. I pointed out that in 2008 we ran through Pole Creek and the sun was already up. Either the sun rose earlier that year or she was now running faster.
I had a cheat sheet of split times in my pocket. We were on a 26:40 pace, which she had maintained the entire race. Written in marker on my forearm is the woman's course record: "29:58."
"Do you want to know your pace or no?" I asked.
"No," she grunted.
At the top of the climb, I saw the lights of a runner (presumably Jared), seemingly farther back than before. Maybe, I thought, maybe she would have enough.
We did not run into the Maggie Aid Station at mile 85, even though it was a gentle downhill. She was just not able to.
At Maggie, I got a little more aggressive, and said, "It hurts. Of course, it hurts. What did you come here for? For this. To be at mile 85 in the lead and ready to throw down for the last 15 miles. Everything in our immediate future is positive. The sun is going to rise, it's going to warm up and we're going to hammer the last couple of big climbs. Don't worry about Jared, just focus on the task. If it hurts, let it hurt. That's your body. But you run this with your mind. With your mind. And no one on this course has a stronger mind." It was the best I could do, an exhortation.
After Maggie Gulch the sun peeked over the eastern ridges. If you watch it closely and with expectation, the sun's rise is a slow process. The rest of the world was asleep, and stretched out behind us was The Race—all the other runners locked on simple goals: to finish, then to sleep.

Experience CCE, 4-H at Franklin Co. Fair
I've heard it said, "You can't call yourself a local until you've been to the Franklin County Fair." It's the area's longest running tradition and one of the oldest county fairs in New York state.
The 163rd Franklin County Fair is about to get into full swing. And this year's roster of scheduled events includes concerts, truck and tractor pulls, a demolition derby, harness racing, a stunt drivers thrill show, a bronco and bull riding rodeo, and some very impressive local talent performing at the 'Franklin County Has Talent' finals competition.
As always, there will be a midway full of rides, games and attractions, and a wide variety of commercial exhibits and concessions.But the Franklin County Fair is about much more than carnival rides, music, fried dough, French fries, and trying to win brightly colored stuffed animals.
The Franklin County Fair was originally the "Franklin County Agricultural Society" because of its agricultural focus. The name is still presented over the front gate, located on U.S. Route 11 on the east side of Malone, and the price of admission still includes access to all of the agricultural events and attractions. These displays, presentations, and competitions bring to light the rich and diverse agricultural heritage of Franklin County and provide an opportunity for neighbors and visitors to view working farm animals, livestock competitions, and many of the time-honored traditions familiar to agricultural families in Northern New York, who welcome you to bring your family and a camera, and enjoy an exciting, fun filled afternoon learning about farming, the source of our food and many of the other items that we use in our daily lives.
Cornell Cooperative Extension, Franklin County 4-H youth, all of the livestock animals, and the traditional lineup of 4-H activities and competitions have been part of the rich heritage of the fair for as long as most 4-H and Future Farmers of America families can remember. And the Franklin County Fair Board has upheld an enduring tradition of support for both FFA and Cooperative Extension 4-H programs and 4-H youth.
The fair is not actually a part of the 4-H program and CCE and the fair board are not directly related. Still, both organizations have been cooperating for generations to assure continued success at one of the largest county fairs in the region. The fair continues to be a place where 4-H members and others in the community can come together to exhibit their skills, their craftsmanship, their showmanship, and their animals, and it remains a showcase for 4-H and FFA members exhibiting their prize livestock, as well as their garden, home economics, and crafts projects. On display are homegrown and handmade items of all kinds; fruits and vegetables, artwork, photography, and a wide variety of creative projects; each one sporting an award ribbon.
We know that participation in the county fair really does make a difference in the lives of our young children. Preparation for County Fair requires an investment of time and energy that results in our youth developing project-related, decision making, leadership, and other life skills. The experience builds character and relationships, and teaches children about setting and reaching goals and working together in solidarity. It's a time of memories, positive experiences, and of lasting friendships. At Cornell Cooperative Extension, we believe that the county fair is a time to celebrate the bounty of local agriculture, the spirit of our communities, and the accomplishments of our 4-H youth.
CCE of Franklin County is striving to continue with the traditions of a truly agricultural fair. We are working to increase awareness of the important contributions that agriculture has made to the historical development of Franklin County, to educate about present day agricultural business and community activities; and to promote greater awareness of agriculture and agricultural issues that are relevant to Franklin County citizens and civic organizations.
During the Fair, livestock barns become educational areas where fairgoers get a glimpse of farm animals young and old, ordinary and unusual, and of what it's like to take responsibility for raising and feeding livestock animals. They learn about the different types and breeds of cattle and about farming life, in general.
Judged livestock competitions are educational experiences too, where visitors learn, not just about animals, but about the sports and recreation that are associated with animals and animal husbandry as well. Participants learn traditional skills, gather experience,and receive prizes. Winners receive recognition, a sense of accomplishment, and the admiration and commendations of their peers.And all share tips about raising livestock.
I'm proud to have participated and to be participating in workshops and hands on activities that allow fairgoers to create and take home distinctively 4-H projects and souvenirs. I have been truly inspired by the effort, creativity and hard work of our 4-H club members as they readied their club exhibits (posters, crafts, scrapbooks, sewing, gardening and woodworking projects) and then submitted them for judging. I've taken great pleasure in watching as they decorated and readied the stalls and pens that are temporarily home to their prized horses, cows, goats, and sheep. Words cannot describe the love, pride and individual care given by these remarkable, exuberant boys and girls to their exceptional animals. They won't all go home with blue ribbons, but as far as I'm concerned, they are all winners.
CCE of Franklin County promotes youth development through 4-H clubs and by offering opportunities to participate in the Franklin County and New York State Fairs, statewide 4-H Youth Gatherings including the State Teen Action Representative Retreat and Albany Capital Days trips, events at Cornell University, National 4-H Conferences, afternoon programs, and much more. There are also shows, field trips and other 4-H experiences and activities, such as those available at Camp Overlook in Mountain View.
Cornell Cooperative Extension encourages you to learn more about our 4-H program, as well as all of the other programs and services that we offer. It's easy to join 4-H. All you have to do is contact your local Cooperative Extension office.
Get involved. Become one of the many parents, volunteers, community leaders, and Extension staff sharing their time and talents with CCE and 4-H youth in your county. You'll be glad you did.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (236 votes).
In short: Good organisation and a very good courseIn full: I never ran it lasy year but all in I thought it was well organised and a really good course. PB friendly and decent conditions. I do think that some entertainment along the route would be nice and the water stations were crowded, but thats my only real gripes.Date of review: April 2, 2007
In short: A huge improvement on last year's organisation. Very flat and fast, and good conditions.In full: You have to take your hat off to the organisers for addressing all the issues that were raised after last year's event. It's not perfect - some of the route is a little dull - but you can't have everything, and to make the route more interesting would probably mean more hills and so slower time. As it happens, almost everyone I know who ran this got a PB... and the event village, goody bags, etc. were all very good. And plenty of the route is still scenic.Would be good to see this race continue to grow and improve, and get bigger crowds and more enthusiastic support round the course. Just the car parking that really needs to be sorted out for next year. I was on more of a high when I got back to my car than I was an hour later when I was allowed to leave! But generally, I have to just say very well done to the organisers. Good job. Date of review: April 2, 2007
In short: Excellent RaceIn full: Well done to the organisers for transforming this race. A very fast course. This event will surely only get bigger and more popular over the next few years.Date of review: April 2, 2007
In short: An event transformed, and a pb!In full: After slagging off last year's event along with so many other runners, its only fair to say what a turn round has been achieved in a year. The course was much better with the late loops of 2006 removed, water, first aid and the first ( for Edinburgh) toilet stations added, the start took place on time and the finish was well organised. Vast credit to the organisers for addressing and correcting the problems of 2006. All that's left now is to get the Edinbuggers out on the streets to support the event. THere were more supporters out ar a much smaller event in Redcar two weeks previously.This is a relatively flat course and, although there was a slight wind in your face on the long run along the shore, this is a really good stretch to do when the sun is shining. A memorable finish past the Britannia too all added up to me taking nearly 3 minutes off my pb. ! hr 30 here I come!Date of review: April 2, 2007
In short: Great Race, very fast course, organisation much better than last year.In full: No complaints.Date of review: April 2, 2007
In short: Nice raceIn full: Great imporovement on last year. Well done.Date of review: April 2, 2007
In short: Sooooooooo much better than last year!In full: Well done to the organisers of this event for taking on the comments from last year - this was sooo much better. For me, and I am sure for a few others, I find the loop backs rather demoralising but hey you can't have everything and at least they were not as bad as last year's. Goody bag was great too as was the finish area. Can't comment on the parking etc as hubby and I tend to stay over the night before. Good crowd support everyone very encouraging and the marshalls I came across were excellent (thanks to you all for giving up your Sunday for us) thanks too to all those who manned the water stations, which were also much improved. Only downside for me was the wind along the waterfront - is it always that windy/cold? On the whole both OH and I thoroughly enjoyed this one and will be back again next year. Keep up the good work. Not one of my all-time favourites yet but you never know!Date of review: April 2, 2007
In short: Well organised, and a fast courseDate of review: April 2, 2007
In short: Big improvement on last yearIn full: After the fiasco of 2006 I was in two minds about returning to this race, but eventually decided, hey its local and it can't be as bad as last year. Well, it wasn't, the traffic was better managed (although the car parking should be rethought as we were stuck in one carpark until after 12 where the other 2 were allowed to be used during the race)and subsequenlty the race started on time. The revised route was better with more of a loop at the start and a pretty straight run in at the end while keeping the flatness which gives the race PB potential. Chip timing was also an improvement which allowed a clear run at the finish. I also liked the goody bag this year, much better value with the T-Shirt but the best thing was the small tub of vaseline which is the most useful thing I've ever had in one of these.The only criticisms I would mention are the water stations could have had more people on them and as mentioned before the parking but the organisers did well enough to make me come back again.Date of review: April 2, 2007
In short: Good race - still not a patch on Glasgow.. In full: So much better than last year but like the other runners mentioned, the double backing can be soul destroying. Marshalls need a dose of happy pills and how about some other entertainment (like Glasgow runs manage so well) along the way? Good distance markers - but we need more toilets!!! nearly missed the start queuing for the mens urinal only toilet by mistake. However, 90% improvement on last year. Date of review: April 1, 2007

Finally...I got my 5 DVD set of the Buck Rogers TV Show from Amazon.com and I got if for almost $15 less than regular price and it was brand new in the shrink wrap still. I had a flashback from childhood...
Anyone remember Buck Rogers? Maybe I am too old, but I loved that show when I was kid. It ran for like two or three years. I was hooked.
Buck was supercool...like the Harrison Ford of the 25th Century. Throw in a little tin robot sidekick that went "BEEEDDY BEEDY BEEDY", a dude that looked like a Hawk, and some really hot futuristic babes and high action and you got the appetite of a five year old. I was so hooked I even had my little metal Buck Rogers lunchbox and thermos, with all the characters on it! Gee that thing must cost a million bucks on e-bay today. The last time I saw a metal lunch box I was clocked in the head with a BeeGees one on my school bus in 3rd grade, by accident. I haven't been the same since and I still hate the BeeGees!
I remember going to the Philadelphia Auto Show in the early 1980's (gee I was like 5 years old!!! Naieve too.) and meeting Gil (Buck) Gerard. I was star struck...I kept calling him "Buck"-- he laughed the whole time, so did my cousins and brothers.
I asked him if he really "froze" in space, like at the beginning credits of the show. He looked at me like I was nuts. And told me "it was only on TV". I wonder if Gil Gerard remembers a stupid question like that from a 5 year old Dale Pantalione.
I also met the Incredible Hulk/ Lou Ferigno that same day...my other hero at the time...in full green make-up...only problem was when he sweat the paint came off.
What a disappointing day that was...Gil Gerard didn't freeze in space and Lou Ferigno wasn't really green!!!
I am blissfully going to watch my Buck Rogers shows this week.

Top tips for distinguishing between depression or anxiety.
Do you have depression or anxiety? The answer to that question isn�t always obvious, even to health and psychology experts. For one thing, nearly half of people diagnosed with depression also suffer from anxiety, according to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America. (Approximately 40 million Americans suffer from anxiety; about 21 million American adults and children from depression.) Furthermore, the two conditions share many of the same symptoms�feelings of hopelessness, restlessness and persistent anxiety, to name a few. RELATED: The Depression Diet No one knows why depression and anxiety often occur in conjunction or even the causes of each, says Dr. Michael A. Tompkins, a psychologist at the San Francisco Bay Area Center for Cognitive Therapy in Oakland, Calif., and author of Anxiety and Avoidance. �What we do know is that people at risk for developing an emotional disorder are those predisposed to have a far greater range of emotional responses than others do. That is what is inheritable,� Tompkins says. We also know that anxiety often precedes depreassion. �If you are anxious in childhood, you are at greater risk for developing depression,� says Tompkins. �If you are afraid of so many things�crowds, driving, meeting people�that anxiety may ultimately be so wearing and exhausting that it leads to hopelessness and depression,� adds Beverly D. Flaxington, human behavior coach, hypnotherapist and author of Self-Talk for a Calmer You. �Anxiety can lead people to give up.� Although the lines between the two conditions are often blurred, fundamental differences do exist. Here�s how to tell whether you have depression or anxiety. Dwelling on the past vs. fearing the future.. �In depression, thoughts are generally about the past, about something that has happened that someone feels powerless to change so the future looks dark,� says Tompkins. �Anxiety is about things that haven�t happened, about how to control future events.� Activity vs. passivity. �Anxiety is a more active mental process, like anticipation about what may happen,� says Flaxington. �Depression is a passive mental process, an acceptance that things are hopeless.� Withdrawal vs. panic. �The features of depression are feelings of worthlessness, guilt, fatigue, trouble focusing, lack of motivation, thoughts of harming oneself and social withdrawal,� says Tompkins.� Anxiety often centers on situations that a person avoids, and may include panic attacks, he says. Differences in physical symptoms. Anxiety can include physical symptoms like getting sick to your stomach, heart palpitations, headaches, irritable bowel and clammy hands in reaction to certain events, such as being enclosed in a small space or in a crowd, says Flaxington. People who are depressed have no energy or drive. They may have interrupted sleep or no appetite�or they may overeat. �People who are anxious are physically aroused, agitated, restless,� says Tompkins.� �Depression is more about slowing down.� Physically, you feel like you are wearing a wet felt hat.� Brought to you by: Spry Living

Merrimack ramp tolls will stay
CONCORD — Merrimack residents' hope for some relief from the F.E. Everett Turnpike ramp tolls was dashed Wednesday by a key House committee.
The House Public Works and Highways Committee voted 15-0 to recommend killing Senate Bill 3, which would have eliminated the exit 12 ramp tolls.
Merrimack residents have long complained they are the only community along the state's turnpike system with three tolls to enter or leave the turnpike, and long sought to have them removed.
However, state transportation officials and lawmakers say an agreement was originally struck to add the three exits in Merrimack in return for the toll revenue to pay off the bonds to pay for the project.
Sponsored by former Senate President Peter Bragdon, R-Milford, SB 3 originally would have eliminated the three Merrimack ramp tolls, but was changed to just the exit 12 ramp before the Senate approved it. The Public Works Committee retained the bill.
Exit 12 toll revenues total about $900,000 a year for the turnpike system.
Committee chair David Campbell, D-Nashua, said the state's 10-year highway improvement plan would be the best way to deal with the issue. Lawmakers will work on the plan next session.
"Closing ramp tolls individually is not a good policy," Campbell told the committee.
He said the F.E. Everett Turnpike expansion project, as well as the $2 million a year diversion from the Bedford toll plaza revenue after the opening of the Manchester-Boston Regional Airport access road, need to be part of the picture.
Since the airport access road opened, traffic through the Bedford tolls has dropped by about 1.6 million vehicles a year, according to information from the Department of Transportation.
Some drivers take the airport access road exit to avoid the Bedford toll by going through the clover leaf ramps, according to Campbell, noting the department said the total diversion could grow to $5 million a year.
The airport access road is before the Bedford toll plaza for northbound travelers. Transportation officials have discussed moving the plaza south to pick up the access road traffic when the plaza is rebuilt to accommodate high-speed tolling.
But the state's 10-year highway plan does not fund the new plaza at this time.
Lawmakers will review the new 10-year plan after the Governor's Advisory Commission on Intermodal Transportation makes it recommendations and send them to Gov. Maggie Hassan, who will in turn make her recommendations before sending it to lawmakers.
At yesterday's meeting, Public Works Committee member Rep. John Graham, R-Bedford, said any reduction in ramp tolls have to be part of an overall turnpike plan including where the Bedford toll plaza should be located to address the diversion. In that context, then lawmakers could talk about eliminating tolls, he said.
"In Merrimack we think we got the short end of the stick," said Rep. Richard Barry, R-Merrimack, a sponsor of the bill. "But I agree you have to look at the total turnpike system, the diversion and where the money is going."
The committee's recommendation to kill SB 3 will come before the House during the first three session days of the 2014 Legislature.

Support World CouncilWith Amazon Smiles!
Throughout 2009, many overseas credit unions and credit union organizations have expressed a need for US credit union speakers to present on the US economy and how it has affected credit unions. WOCCU received one of these requests from the Belize Credit Union League (BCUL) for its AGM during ICU Day week. As a WOCCU volunteer, Carlyn Roy, COO of OSU Federal Credit Union of Oregon, made the trip to Belize City, Belize to present on the popular topic and lead a workshop on risk management and risk-based lending at the league's AGM.
In her presentation, Roy concluded that although the economic crisis will affect credit unions in terms of increased delinquency and decreased earnings, the current financial market also presents an opportunity for future growth and for tapping into new markets. Roy followed her presentation with a Q & A session on US credit union operations. The annual convention touted a total of 186 participants and 60 attendees participated in Roy's workshop. Southwest Corporate Credit Union of Plano, TX and BCUL have been partnered through WOCCU's International Partnerships program since 2008. BCUL is affiliated with WOCCU through its membership in the Caribbean Confederation of Credit Unions, a WOCCU member.

The Old Mare…..Posted Friday, December 7, 2012, at 1:26 PM
Many of you who know me, know that when I was a young girl, I spent as much time as possible on my Aunt and Uncle's ranch in Owyhee County. That for me was where I really belonged. On that ranch I learned so much about life and life and death …hard work, play, sadness, and joy. Those lessons have been with me forever. I'm dismayed that more children then and now don't get to experience that kind of what I consider real life. I was able to ride horse to my Horse Loving Heart's content. I actually never dreamt of having my own horse, but when I was 11 years old, they gave me my first "very own horse" And my parents let me have her! I was amazed at that, though looking back, I realize my Aunt and Uncle would have spoken with my parents before hand. Everyone knew but me. It was about this time of year, and we had been to Nampa to visit my Grandparents and came home thru Grandview, to stop and visit my Aunt and Uncle. This in itself was not out of the ordinary. My Aunt handed me a photo of a little yearling filly and said that it was mine. I thought she meant the photo, and I loved it. When she made me realize that not only was the photo mine, but the subject of the photo. I had a horse! I remember being speechless! We went out to the corrals and I was able to see her. Not to touch her, as she was to that point, unhandled. We didn't bring her home that night, cuz we had to have a fence put up. I"m sure it didn't take long for that fence to be done, but it seemed forever to me, while waiting for my horse. When we finally did bring her home, I was so excited. My life with that horse started me along a path, that is still proceeding forward. I learned so much from that horse….. I did things wrong, (mostly I'm sure) and I did things right. I had my Dad for back up, though they let me pretty much do whatever. I was actually darn lucky with that horse, as I would NOT suggest getting a yearling filly for an 11 year old …but the relationship we built was simply awesome. She was from the Juniper Mountains in the Owyhees, I called her Brandy Juniper. Her mother, Missy, was not a particularly gentle grey mare, and I was never allowed to ride her, for that reason. I probably didn't (or maybe I did, sneak a ride from time to time, when no one was looking) I loved Missy.
Later, when I was about 25 my Aunt gave me a sister to that horse. She was also a yearling, and black, and beautiful. She also was from Missy, and a Thoroughbred stud. Between the 2 of them, Mariah was not a particularly gentle mare, but fair in her behavior. I learned, that now that I was older, that I could have fear of actually being bucked off. For whatever stroke of luck, Brandy never did do that, so I thought I was up for anything. I quickly learned that I was not. Mariah gave me my first concussion when she was about 3 years old. It was summer time, and she and I were out in the desert as we often were. To this time, I was had not yet been thrown, and really wasn't worried about it. I woke up in the hospital, thanks to Mike Landers for finding me out there, and had recieved a concussion, a broken ankle and just an overall bruised up body. It was summer time, I think about July. With that ankle, it was awhile before I could go out and try again. That saying of "When you get thrown from a horse, get right back on" is so true. If you don't, you have that fear inside your head and heart getting bigger and bigger, looming like a dark gloom over you. Well, once I could, I did go out to ride her again, but it seemed like a physical thing that I could NOT swing my leg over her back. I tried several times, and several times I didn't do it. If you've ever been 'there', you might know what I mean. I was so not proud of that. I had another horse and I used him alot, for nearly a year ….. so was not proud of that. Finally, my friend Penny came and got me and her, and we trailered out for a trail ride. We both knew I had to go 'cold turkey' and just 'do it'. Well, that day, we unloaded the horses from the trailer, and I did ride her. There were moments of …"Oh God, …." But it turned out well. Thanks for great friends who hold you up!
Mariah became that horse that did it all. Not many rode her, and few were comfortable on her. She was always 'ready' and willing to 'go off', ….. but she'd do anything you asked…. she was not afraid of anything. My daughter showed her a couple years in 4-H and broke home the Overall Grand Champion on her. Later, she barrel raced her in High School Rodeo, and did well. My then husband hunted off her, and packed game out, as did my oldest son. I showed her in both English and Western in Idaho State Shows, and we usually came out high. In my mind, she'd have done better, with a better showman than me. I did so many trail rides I can't being to imagine the miles we logged.
It was because of her that I began looking for more education in my horsemanship. She was alot of horse, and I knew I need all the "help" I could get, but I also knew she was worth learning for. Once I started the 'learning', it became addictive to go and see the possibilities of what you could accomplish with a horse. I couldn't ever wait to get back home and put it 'into practice' with her. She and i became a fairly amazing team, I honestly believe that wasn't much she wouldn't do for me. And there was nothing that I'd ask, that she wouldn't try. Along with all that, she was full of character. She'd let the horses out and take them for runs down 18th street. Hide in dark at night so you thought she was gone, steal food out of your hand, (even a burrito)
My Aunt and Uncle had long since passed away, and it always felt that Mariah was a 'link' to those times, and to them. I always hoped that they were happy that I kept and loved her all those years, and that she and I were doing things. I bred Mariah's hot headed self when she was about 10 years old. I waited til then, because I was busy learning her and up to then, hadn't wanted to take the 'time off' for her to have a baby. But with my Aunt and Uncle gone, and Mariah being my last link, I wanted one more to carry on that line. I bred her to an Arab stud over near Buhl. Many thought I was crazy adding Arab hot headedness to her an already hot mare, but I felt it was a challenge. The resulting colt, was a beautiful site to behold. Though I had "ordered" grey, he was just brown, but I was happy. And Mariah had found the love of her life. Of course she loved him, since he was hers, but she found after that, she loved anything little. Baby horses, little goats, dogs, chickens, sheep. She wanted them all. I had also planned to be present for the birth of this colt. I KNEW that I KNEW this mare well enough, that I would just simply know when it was time. i didn't. One day, out there where there had been one horse, was now 8 legs. She fooled me. I had sat up a few nights "knowing" "tonight is the night"…. yep, she fooled me. I forgave her. My kids would lay with that colt all a tangle of kids and legs and horse. He never had a chance of not being friendly. And Mariah would stand over them all protectively. He is the horse that my son now has.
After weaning him, I went back to using her. When he was about a year old, she got sick. Up til then, she'd never been sick a day in her life. She got real sick. I told her to the vet so many times, and it just wouldn't get better. I was afraid. Finally, I went to the vet, and she was seen by Lloyd Knight. I'll be the first to tell you that I've not always been fond of him…or more specifically, his gruff manner. He went on for a bit, and I finally asked "Are you telling me she's gonna die?" He said something to the point of "That's what I just said" I was devastated. But, I'll also be the first to tell you, he changed up her medications …. set her up for IV treatments, though he thought I might be wasting my money. He saved her life, and became a Hero to me. She got well, and seemed none the worse for her trouble. He said that her lungs would be compromised,…pnuemonia is what she had. He felt she wouldn't be of much use. I can remember one time, sitting at her feet and wondering if I should go ahead and make that decision that I'd been fighting with myself over. Suddenly, she laid down right next to me and laid her head on my lap. We sat there with her head under my hands for a long time. I'm so glad I fought for her.
I conditioned her, and got her healthy again, and she seemed fine. I used her for whatever I had ever used her for. Then I started doing Endurance riding. She loved those! She oould go for miles and miles…. and just loved it. Katie would ride her colt, and together we covered so much ground, with a well matched pair. You have to pass 'vet checks' along the way, and I was nervous the first time, and never said a word to the vets of any previous condition. She passed with all "A's and they never noticed a problem, whatsoever. It was after the pnuemonia that my daughter used her for barrel racing, and she never missed a beat then either.
As she grew older, I did start to let the younger horses fill in, and she started her retirement years. All she needed to do at these times, was to be pet and loved, and take care of the occasional 'baby'. There came the time, when going out to feed, if I didn't spot her right off …my heart would sink, and I'd wonder "Where is she!" then, she'd come astrolling around the corner of a barn or tree, and say,…."Here I am" She got smaller, and seemingly shorter, …and so many grey hairs…. I knew her time was coming. And I dreaded it, but I knew I'd be with her "when the time comes" Last year, I went and sat on her bareback for a while, ….just her and I, thinking and reliving those old days. Those days where I loved her, hated to love her, loved to hate her…. but never gave up on her and I cuz she never gave up on anything. The education that mare gave me is priceless and I will always treasure it. She passed away last month, and while I'm tormented at the loss, I'm also grateful she doesn't have to go thru a cold winter. She lived with friends til the end, in the foothills, and could roam as she pleased.
I'm grateful that she was able to spend the summer of 2011 in these lush hills of Cascade and have that one more chance to take care of a baby. I'm real happy that Katie came to visit and sit and reminisce with her about the days gone by, and that Jilly and Allysin were both able to sit on her. That meant so much to me, as I knew those opportunities were getting few.
Once …when she was retired and knew it, I was heading to a 'team sorting' …well, she loaded herself up in the trailer and wouldn't get out, (though I suppose I didn't ask her) so I took her along and let her watch. It seemed like a small wish to
These photos definitely show her age, though I will always remember her as a young vital energetic horse, which is how she'd want to be known.
These are the Beautiful foothills that she will Rest in Peace now. Just as she would have wanted.
She was able to be with a baby and new friends at the end….

Dad put Old Buttons down himself. I can still see him riding her one last time at the age of 31. He even made a deep hole so that she could have a safe resting place.
Dad loved his horses and it made him sick to put one down or sell them.
It is a wonder that we can still enjoy the freedom of the outdoors that riding a horse can give you.
Daryl Keck loved all of his horses too. I know that Dad, Tom Hall and Daryl and a few other cowboys are riding the range with their favorite horses.
So sorry for your loss.

May I Go Now
May I Go? May I go now?
Do you think the time is right?
May I say good-bye to pain-filled days
and endless lonely nights?
I've lived my life and done my best,
an example tried to be.
So can I take that step beyond
and set my spirit free?
I didn't want to go at first,
I fought with all my might.
But something seems to draw me now
to a warm and loving light.
I want to go. I really do.
It's difficult to stay.
But I will try as best I can
to live just one more day,
To give you time to care for me
and share your love and fears.
I know you're sad and so afraid,
because I see your tears.
I'll not be far, I promise that,
and hope you'll always know
that my spirit will be close to you,
wherever you may go.
Thank you so for loving me.
You know I love you too.
That's why it's hard to say good-bye
and end this life with you.
So hold me now, just one more time
and let me hear you say,
because you care so much for me,
you'll let me go today.
So sorry for the loss of your much beloved horse. Although she is "gone" her spirit will always live in your heart. One day, you will be together again in that grassy field beyond. Find solace in the fact that you owned a truly amazing horse---a gift from God.

Jessie Didn't you write a blog about setting her free about a year ago? I can't read all of your print, its to small for me to read, thats why I am asking you. I have a problem with print sometimes as I have a hole in my left eye and some day I will loose my vision in it.
Anyways about 3 weeks ago we were out in the Bruneau area when I seen out in the middle of no where 3 horses running together. I have never seen horses running free ever, and was surprised to see them. Do you think it could of been your mare? On that same trip we seen an Elk some deer and a coyote. Usually we don't see anything....
KHG Do you know Cathy Keck? She's married to Daryl's son and they live in Nevada

Thanks Tracy, I know you have felt the loss too...yes she was anamazing horse.
Marilyn, i wrote about putting her out where i thought was to be her final home, which it was. I wanted her to be in beautiful rolling hills. Thank you

Thanks Tommy! I too have said goodbye to many, you're right, it's never easy, some harder than we think we can bare. She was about 30, & I had her all her life, (since she was 1 anyway)
It's part of life, for sure.

I went to school with Kevin Keck. Daryl and my Dad were friends for a very long time.

Marilyn i just read again your comment. No that wasn't my horse. She was on private ground. Not near Bruneau.
There are lots of horses in Bruneau, mostly owned, just either on blm or private ground.

Jessie It appeared that the horses we saw were wild. They were out in the middle of wilderness quite a distance away from the road. They could of been owned by someone. I don't know that much about horses to know if they were owned or wild. lol! I have only seen horses behind fences or someone riding or walking them. This was a first for me to see them out like they were.... Maybe I am wishing their wild so I can say I seen wild horses.......
My neighbors have horses some times. I think they move them around between family members. Right now they don't have them.....

I am interested in this Community, County, and the beautiful state of Idaho. Most of my photos will be in Idaho, but from time to time, they will be my vacations aay from Idaho. You'll see lots of my Children and Grand children, along with others in my family. Of course there will be horses and horse related things, and things I photo'd horseback.

Original model, 8GB.
$175 (enough to pay my termination fee). Work is making me get a crackberry, and I refuse to be that guy carrying 2 cell phones.
The good news, since it is the original model, it can be unlocked and taken to whichever carrier you have. A few simple steps and a swap out of the sim card with the one for your carrier and away you go.
Here is the link for how to unlock it:
I would, but would hate to do it wrong and screw myself.
Most go for over $200 on e-bay, but I don't do e-bay, so this is my best shot.

Since the 1990s, crops of all kinds — soy, corn, cotton — have been genetically engineered to resist pesticides, herbicides, and harsh weather conditions. There is, however, cause for alarm. The USDA doesn't require genetically modified organisms (GMOs), which have been known to cause cancer and food allergies, to be reported on food labels. And that's not sitting well with a growing number of people, some of whom are in a position to do something about it.
From January 29th to 31st, chefs Michael Reed and Nina Clemente, the daughter of artist Francesco Clemente and his wife, Alba Clemente, along with hosts Marisa Tomei, Shiva Rose, Peter Glatzer, and Adrian Grenier, will present "Reclaim REAL Food." The three-night pop-up restaurant, held at The Standard Hollywood, offers an alternative to GMOs with a dinner made only with fresh, organic ingredients. Nina Clemente spoke to ARTINFO about reclaiming real food and creating a GMO-free menu.
How did the idea for the pop-up restaurant come about?
The Standard Hollywood has always been immensely supportive of me. Although I've done a couple of pop-ups in the past, they've always been for my own creative fulfillment. This time around I wanted to create three truly special evenings by incorporating two causes near and dear to my heart. The first is raising awareness about GMOs and the Just Label It campaign and the second is raising funds for the Garden School Foundation. I knew the Standard would be behind me 100 percent as these are causes they believe in as well. This pop-up is the culmination of all I've worked hard to build within the past five years as a private chef in L.A. I've involved so many wonderful people I've met through the years, and together we plan on executing three memorable evenings that we intend to nurture the body and soul.
Why is it important to reclaim real food?
The concept of reclaiming real food is to embrace how generations of people ate before processed food and convenience eating. It's all about shifting the overall food mentality. We as consumers must demand that we get better, more affordable access to organic real food. Only then will the big corporations that mesmerize us with their GMO-packed burgers and sugar-filled sodas begin to shift as well. If you consume processed food you are sure to be filling up on GMO-packed additives, thereby making your body work harder to figure out how to digest all of these foreign, toxic components. We forget that the human body is made to regenerate. I am convinced that if people consumed real food on a daily basis and kicked processed food to the curb that the terrible cycle of sickness that is escalating in our country would diminish greatly.
Tell us about the menu you developed with Michael Reed.
Chef Reed is an incredible chef. We come from the same school of thought. Good food is simple, clean, real food. We looked at our lists of produce provided by our beloved One Gun Ranch and Maggie's Farm. Although it's been a hard cold month for our farmers, we're still blessed to have the California sunshine to help our farms thrive. We wanted to incorporate all our local farmers could provide us with, so their raw ingredients pretty much dictated our menu. We wanted to really focus on the vegetables and winter fruits. It was a lot of fun building this menu together. I'm completely obsessed with vibrant colors and texture and Chef Reed is a technical expert and perfectionist, so this menu will be full of flavor, visual stimulation and goodness, while still maintaining real-food simplicity.
What is your advice on avoiding GMOs?
This has been a challenge, especially being that Prop 37 (which would have required labeling of GMO food) did not pass in November, thanks to the big GMO producing companies that spent $45 million to defeat it. The top crops containing GMOs are corn, you, canola, cotton, and sugar beets. So many additives used to preserve food are sourced from corn and soy. I avoid non-organic milk and cows fed corn feed, which is not their natural diet, therefore they become sick. Then are pumped with antibiotics and guess who ends up absorbing all that mess? We do! I say if you're looking at processed food in the grocery store and the ingredient list is a paragraph, don't buy it. Eat organic as much as you can, and try not to order anything cooked in canola from restaurants as chances are it's GMO-packed canola. Try making your own real food. I know how hard it can be with the fast pace of a busy life, but it's worth the effort. To truly know the dangers of GMOs, listen to Robyn O'Brien's Ted Talk. It changed my entire life. She doesn't scare you, she awakens you. Educate yourself. The only way the system will change is if we come together as consumers and demand real food.
How did growing up in a creative household influence your cooking?
I grew up in a household with Italian-born and -raised parents. Real whole foods was a given in my home, as my mother cooked everything from scratch. I was completely unaware of how most of the country ate until I went to college and was exposed to the compulsion that processed food provides. The GMO-packed processed food was easy, fast and cheap and I quickly became addicted. Thankfully having had the foundation my folks instilled in me I shook the habit pretty quickly. I can't say most of my friends were as lucky. It breaks my heart that real food is presented in this country as an accessibility challenge. Being a private chef in Los Angeles for the past five years, most of my clients hire me because I deliver the simplicity and goodness only real food can provide. I want to make it my mission to transform the mentality towards REAL food. Let's make it easy, fast and inexpensive for everyone! The blessing of growing up in a creative household is that I bring aesthetic beauty to my simple dishes. I thrive and am inspired by nature's inherent beauty. Being in California and having accessibility to year round spectacular fruits, veggies, nuts, grains, seafood, meat and herbs makes my job as a chef/artist easy. I've always seen food as the best form of art as it indulges all the senses.
"Reclaim REAL Food" will take place at The Standard in Hollywood from January 29th to 31st. For more information, visit reclaimrealfood.com.
