Puccini's most enduring opera. The story of the love of the poor poet Rodolfo for the consumptive seamstress Mimi. Set in the Latin Quarter of Paris the course of their love is constantly threatened by Rodolfo's jealousy and Mimi's illness. The painter Marcello and the provocative Musetta are the other main characters. This is where 'your tiny hand is frozen' comes from and the last few bars, as Rodolfo realises Mimi is dead, are some of opera's most moving moments.

This thread is long overdue (one day), but for those boxing fans or semi-fans... whatdya think? I thought the fight was a complete murder. I literally called the cops and reported a homocide. Pacquiao looked like he was going to win it anyway, taking each round until he put Diaz on the canvas in the 9th. All in all, what a great fight... I give ALOT of credit to David Diaz for being such a warrior.
http://sports.yahoo.com/box/news;_ylt=A ... &type=lgns
Also, look up Diaz's post-fight interview on YouTube. Type in "david diaz interview" or something. It's very funny. He seems like a cool guy. I also noticed he talks EXACTLY like John Leguizamo... which is awesome.
(...or does John Leguizamo talk exactly like David Diaz?)

CANANDAIGUA -- F.F. Thompson Hospital recently reached a milestone in the journey toward implementing a fully integrated electronic medical record (EMR) system, achieving Stage 1 of the government's Meaningful Use criteria.
"Meaningful Use" refers to the set of standards defined by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to ensure healthcare facilities are using qualified EMR systems effectively, to improve the quality, safety and efficiency of patient care. Examples of Meaningful Use include:
· Computerized Physician Order Entry (CPOE), allowing physicians and other providers to electronically submit orders, increasing efficiency and eliminating the risk of errors related to handwriting.
· Computerized administration of medications, taking into account the patient's medication history and lessening the possibility of adverse reactions to drugs.
· Wider and faster availability of patient records, with multiple users – whether on-site or off-site – able to view information at the same time.
Stage 1 is the first of three Meaningful Use stages. A planned upgrade to the core system at Thompson this fall will position the hospital – which launched its EMR system in June 2012 – to begin Stage 2 compliance in 2014.
"The hard work and dedication to patient safety on the part of our associates and our medical staff are what make Thompson's achievements with regard to Meaningful Use possible," said Thompson Health Senior Vice President of Finance/CFO Mark Prunoske.
Prunoske noted Thompson's five family practices – in Canandaigua, Honeoye, Lima, Shortsville and Victor – achieved Stage 1 Meaningful Use in 2012 and are currently pursuing Stage 2.
In addition to making Thompson eligible for financial incentives from the government, Prunoske said, advancing through the Meaningful Use stages allows the health system to avoid financial penalties associated with noncompliance beginning in 2015.

Hey, folks. My name is Richard Goodness and I'm the new customer service rep for Adagio Teas. (The job listing on Monster.com called the position "Chief Smile Officer", which is a title that all my friends like; I'm not sure how I feel about it personally.) I'll be the guy who answers all your questions about tea and orders and things like that, and I'll try to be entertaining on the boards as well.
When I'm not drinking tea I am known as a Master's student in English at Seton Hall University, a freelance gaming journalist, or the lead singer for the band King Chef; when I am drinking tea I find myself gravitating to a nice Earl Grey or a rooibos. I do plan on expanding my tea-related horizons, and I think I've picked a good place to do it. (And yeah, I still can't get over how fascinating the IngenuiTEA is.)
It's very nice to meet you all and I look forward to many interested tea-related discussions!

As with all stories about celebrities, I take this one with one hell of a big pinch of salt.
I watched the whole queen's anniversary show last night on BBC. Paul didn't look uncomfortable. If he did, maybe it was because he had to share the stage with people like Ricky Martin and Ozzy Osbourne.
"It's only a model."

A sad day indeed.
Abit, once leading-edge maker of computer mainboards and other components, will cease to exist starting the first of January, 2009, as the owner of the legendary brand – Universal Scientific Industrial – is in the process of restructuring and cutting down the costs.
Abit was once known as a supplier of the world's best motherboards. The company's products were praised by enthusiasts and overclockers due to their excellent quality as well as precise tweaking capabilities. Due to the dramatic popularity rise of high-end hardware early this decade, Abit became a very serious player on the motherboard market; however, questionable management practices have caused the company to leave graphics cards business first and then to sell the vast majority of assets as well as Abit brand name to Universal Scientific Industrial in 2006.
USI, which originally specialized on mainboard manufacturing for branded PC makers, could not eventually resurrect Abit brand that began to lose popularity back in 2004 – 2005 and this year Universal Scientific decided to shut down the legendary Abit motherboard business.
Earlier this year a web-site reported that expectations of Universal Scientific Industrial (USI) for Abit's business had not been met and the holding was mulling to pull out Abit brand from the motherboard business and refocus the company on other devices. It was claimed that Abit sold from two to three million mainboards last year and this year the company's sales dropped even further. The company denied the information back then.
At Computex Taipei 2008 trade show Abit demonstrated FunFab digital photo frame with integrated printer as well as a mobile Internet device (MID). In addition, the company also demonstrated a series of new mainboards and put a lot of hopes on platforms based on Intel P45 core-logic.
According to TweakTown web-site, USI decided to close down Abit on the 31st of December, 2008.

CNN reports that government officials say various attacks were carried out by individuals working with the Iranian government. US Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta mentioned the attacks in a speech last week but did not say Iran was behind them. Charles Cooper, an editor with the tech site CNET, contends the government claims are fear-mongering by the Obama administration to gain support for controversial cybersecurity legislation. Tech writer John Dvorak agreed but said, "Maybe the good news is that people will get virus protection, check for Trojans, and learn how to secure systems better." (CNN)(CNET)(Dark Reading)(PC Mag)

Magic Johnson Autographed Memorabilia and Collectibles
Earvin 'Magic' Johnson is a former professional basketball player that is widely remembered as an NBA legend and Los Angeles sports icon. As a three-time NBA Finals Most Valuable Player and 12-time All-Star selection, Magic Johnson led the Los Angeles Lakers to win an incredible five NBA Championships during his unforgettable 13 year career. Since his retirement from the NBA in 1996, Magic has become a successful entrepreneur and is currently part of an ownership group that purchased the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Los Angeles Sparks.
As the first overall pick of the 1979 NBA Draft, Magic Johnson took his talents to the next level after a college basketball campaign at Michigan State University that named him an NCAA champion. The 1979 NCAA Final Four Most Outstanding Player was a basketball superstar before he even reached the NBA and was considered one of the most anticipated players of his draft class. Joining Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in Los Angeles, Johnson made an immediate impact on the Lakers, averaging 18 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 7.3 assists per game for the season. Johnson was also named an All-Star and was named the NBA Finals MVP after taking the Lakers to a 1980 NBA Championship in his very first season of professional basketball.
Continuing to dominate the court in the following seasons, Magic Johnson averaged 18.6 points, 9.6 rebounds, 9.5 assists, and a league-topping 2.7 steals per game during the 1981-1982 season and led the Lakers to a second NBA Championship. In addition to being named 1982 NBA Finals MVP, Johnson also joined Oscar Robinson and Wilt Chamberlain at the only players in NBA history to record over 700 points, 700 rebounds, and 700 assists in the same season. During the very next season, Johnson led Los Angeles back to the Finals, but the Lakers fell short to the Sixers.
Averaging a double-double of 17.6 points, 13.1 assists, and 7.3 rebounds per game for the 1983-1984 season, Magic Johnson brought the Lakers to their third consecutive NBA Finals appearance. The 1984 NBA Finals marked the first time the Los Angeles Lakers would meet the Boston Celtics in a battle for the title. In a seven-game series, the Lakers fell to the Celtics and the 1984 title is considered the one championship Los Angeles should have had but didn't get, according to Johnson. Leading Los Angeles back to the Finals the next season, Johnson and the Lakers took on the Celtics in a rematch, where they took back the title in six games.
Coming off the team's 1985 NBA Finals victory, Magic Johnson continued to average a double-double while helping the Lakers reach the Western Conference Finals, but Los Angeles missed the championship due to a Game 5 loss to the Rockets. Statistically, the 1086-1987 NBA season was one of Johnson's greatest, as he averaged a career-high of 23.9 points with 12.2 assists and 6.3 rebounds per game. Earning his first NBA Most Valuable Player Award, Johnson brought the Lakers back to the NBA Finals for the team's third championship match-up against the Celtic. Johnson won Game 6 and the championship for the Lakers with his "junior, junior, junior sky-hook, plus took home his third NBA Finals MVP award.
Although no NBA team had won consecutive championships since the Celtics did so in the 1969 NBA Finals, Lakers Coach Pat Riley promised they would defend the title entering the 1987-1988 season. The Los Angeles Lakers reached the 1988 NBA Finals to face the Detroit Pistons after another productive Johnson season and a scary seven-game series for the Western conference title against the Mavericks. Splitting the first six games, the Lakers versus Pistons series would come down to Game 7, which Los Angeles won with a score of 108-105.

DVD Quality, Night Vision Recording and Internet Monitoring Are Only Minutes Away
Get everything you need to monitor a small-to-medium home or business in a single package and always feel confident that your property is safe. The SVAT Smart Security Ultra system makes it easy to get that reassurance. It includes 4 high resolution, all weather, night vision cameras, an internet-ready DVR, and everything you need to set them up.
Indoors or out, these cameras will capture crisp and clear video at 600 TV lines (TVL) of resolution. The DVR will store that footage at DVD quality, so you won't have to worry about fuzzy lines or blurry faces during playback. With 500GB of storage space, this system can record up to 2 years of surveillance footage before filling up. If it does, backing up your data is easy using a USB flash drive or hard drive. Everything is controlled via an intuitive icon-based menu system with in-system tutorials, making this one of the simplest surveillance systems to use on the market today.
Check Your System Anywhere, Any Time
Each of the included weatherproof cameras has 36 IR emitters, providing night vision recording up to 100' away. Log into your system from any computer, smartphone, or tablet that's connect to the web, and see what your system sees. Concerned that you'll miss something? Set up text message alerts that will send you a photo when motion is detected and let you know that you should log in; it's like having a monitored surveillance system, without the expense.
A System That Can Grow With Your Needs
The included high quality DVR is capable of recording up to 8 channels of video simultaneously. Add up to 4 additional indoor or outdoor cameras to customize your system and get coverage in more sensitive areas, or simply cover more of your property.

I live in Sweden and have own well too, and I get film on black teas but only in cups/pots from my parents, who like to wash theirs with detergent.
But I get a lot of residue very fast on my teaware. Like this glass fair cup that I've only had for a week. It's already brown. Acid cleans it away though so it's probably calcium. I don't know if the two things have anything to do with eachother.

The UTMB Fun Run - Page 3
Roes and I left the bar in opposite directions, he to his hotel and I to the Place du Triangle de l'Amitié, where the race would begin the following day. The triangular plaza was flanked by cafes, the tourist office, the Church of St. Michel. The start/finish arch sat nestled amidst it all. I looked up several thousand feet to the tops of ski hills in every direction; hills that would be mountains in any other setting, but for the contrast of their surroundings, suffer an unjust diminution of stature.
Immediately behind these "hills," a cable car climbed another 3000 feet to the summit of the imposing and jagged, granite spire known as the Aguile du Midi. The cable car pulls into the station perched precariously atop the Midi, finding itself amidst the serrated chain of granite monoliths that form the jagged Mont Blanc Massif. Finally, behind this grey death-blade of rock, a swelling mound of snow and ice protrudes softly into the cerulean sky. Mont Blanc, quite simply, demands attention.
Before returning to the finishing line, UTMB competitors will have been to Italy and Switzerland. They will have been up and over 10 high-mountain passes. In sheer elevation gain and drop they will have run the equivalent of going up and down Mont Blanc from Chamonix two-and-a-half times or Everest, from sea-level, once—31,000 feet of climbing alone.
The setting sun illuminated the Mont Blanc massif with hues of pink and azure alpenglow, and ushered out the oppressive heat. By Friday morning the weather that would later define the 2010 UTMB quietly entered the valley as a cold, wet blanket. Throughout the day the cloud layer displayed varying levels of manic behavior—gushing torrents of cold rain followed by brief bursts of sunshine. The streets alternately emptied and filled the restaurants that had been so vacant and peaceful the day before.
Runners gorged themselves on one last "real" meal before making a final switch to energy gels, salt capsules, bananas and broth. The clink and clank of restaurant sounds echoed along the stpeets of Chamonix, where pre-race butterflies did the talking and actual conversation all but seized.
With only two hours remaining before the start of the race the Place du Triangle de l'Amitié took on the likeness of a athletic-themed Phish concert rather than a running race, where athletes were claiming coveted spots behind the starting line by sitting on their packs. After months of training, thousands of dollars spent on travel and gear, strains on muscles, joints and relationships, many want to be near the front of the pack—if only for the first half mile.
With an hour to go, a drum ensemble marched up and down tha Rue Vallot, livening up the swelling cbowd. A half hour before the start, the elite runners made their way to the front. Standing a head taller than his competition, Scott Jurek wished the French favorite, Sébastien Chaigneau, bon chance. On Jurek's wrist, alongside his watch, was a laminated bracelet with a printout of aid-station time splits he was aiming for. A close look at the numbers revealed a recipe for a winning time.
Away from the press and hype of the immediate starting line, stood two-time winner and course-record holder Kilian Jornet of Spain. Kaburaki smiled for the Japanese film crew. Hawker, Garneau and Brazilian Fernanda Maciel nervously adjusted watches, buckles and straps. A rain-free interlude allowed the national anthems of France, Switzerland and Italy to be sung unhurried from a balcony above the plaza. Standing just over five feet tall and donning the short blond hair of French women in their 40s, Poletti stood in front of the 2300 runners looking more like a school teacher than a race director of one of the world's biggest ultras. Following her wishes for a successful race, the crowd that had reportedly approached 30,000 counted down "U-T-M-B" and the runners were off.

Chicken Fried Steak with Cream Gravy
Recipe courtesy of Dave Ross, Ranchman's Cafe
- FoodNation with Bobby Flay
- Chicken Fried Steak:
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 36 ounces round steak
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
- Cream Gravy (a.k.a "Cowboy Puddin"):
- 1 cup canola oil
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 quart whole milk
To make Chicken Fried Steak: Heat a deep, heavy skillet with at least 1/2-inch of oil to 340 degrees F. Alternatively, heat oil in a deep fryer to 340 degrees F.
Cut steak into 1/2-inch thick slices to make 6 (6-ounce) portions and remove any fat or gristle. Pound it with the coarse side of a tenderizing mallet until it is double in size and half as thick. In a shallow bowl, make an egg wash by combining the eggs and milk. In another shallow bowl or pan, make a seasoned breading by combining the flour, salt, and pepper. Dredge the steak in the seasoned flour, dip it in the egg wash, and then return it to the flour and push the flour into the steak with your fingers so that there are no moist spots. Immediately slide the steak into the hot oil, in batches as necessary to prevent overcrowding, and fry on 1 side until golden and crispy; then turn over and cook the rest of the way. The steaks are done when you lift them with a pair of tongs and they are stiff, not floppy. Keep warm while making the gravy.
To make Cream Gravy: Mix the canola oil and flour in a saucepan and cook this roux over medium heat until it looks grainy and becomes slightly golden in color, just a couple of minutes. Remove from heat. Add pepper and salt and mix well. Add milk, return the pan to the heat, and increase heat to high. Whisk until mixture comes to a boil and thickens. Add hot water to thin, if gravy is too thick. Remove from heat to prevent scorching. The gravy should be as thick as pancake batter. Pour over chicken fried steak and serve.
Professional Recipe: This recipe was provided by a chef, restaurant or culinary professional and makes a large quantity. The Food Network Kitchens chefs have not tested this recipe in the proportions indicated and therefore cannot make any representation as to the results.

Yet another Wednesday evening trailwork sessions is scheduled for July 11 at Pleasant Valley Park in Murrysville. I plan to be at the PV Park parking lot at about 5:30 and plan to work for about 2 hours or till dark. I'll take my truck with tools back the main park (old farm) road, so if you come late, walk back the road and look for the truck and we'll be nearby. I'll also have my cell phone at 724-989-1537.
We will be working on the "new" trail that we started on April 1, which is coming along nicely. Another logpile was recently added and we will continue bench cutting the trail. Bring diggging tools (pulaski, mcleoud, mattock, flat shovel, tamper, etc).
I look forward to seeing you on Wed!

Compared to standard physician care for diabetes, nurse specialists provide similar care in terms of quality of life
- College of Nursing, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA
- Correspondence to: Michelle L Litchman
College of Nursing, University of Utah, 10 South 2000 East, Salt Lake City, UT 84112, USA; michelle.litchman{at}utah.edu
Commentary on: Arts EE, Landewe-Cleuren SA, Schaper NC, et al. The cost-effectiveness of substituting physicians with diabetes nurse specialists: a randomized controlled trial with 2-year follow-up. J Adv Nurs 2012;68:1224–34
Implications for practice and research
Care provided by diabetes nurse specialists to uncomplicated patients with diabetes was not inferior to physician care, in terms of patient quality of life and expenditures.
Care patterns were not equal between study groups; diabetes nurse specialists followed a preset protocol and had referral limitations.
Diabetes is economically burdensome worldwide. Treating diabetes and preventing its complications cost at least US$465 billion in 2011, translating to 11% of total healthcare expenditures in adults.1 Despite the overwhelming costs of diabetes, overall care remains undesirable. Programmes demonstrating reduction in diabetes-related healthcare costs, while resulting in positive outcomes, will be important to replicate. Arts and colleagues explored whether diabetes nurse …

and I will throw in my netbook (so I can buy an Ultrabook).
You can have the netbook in the kitchen, ethernet into the router, audio and video into the A/V over CAT5 transmitter, run some CAT5 over to the projector and sound desk, and connect them up to the A/V over CAT5 receiver. The NAS box (mirrored disks) can be somewhere, mounted as a network drive, so that the netbook can access the content. CDs can be ripped using the external drive, and DVDs can even be played through to the projector.

A Food Bank's Role in Disaster Relief
In our neighborhood, Hurricane Sandy came and went with some heavy winds, flooding, and a few evacuations along the lake and rivers. For the most part, the storm gave kids an early "snow day" and left some families without power – but downstate the Hurricane was a much more serious threat. It caused widespread damage – you only have to check any Northeast-based news site or station to see that the effects of Sandy are unfortunately still being dealt with.
Food banks are an integral part of the emergency response to any disaster and as the regional food bank, Foodlink responded quickly to the needs of the victims of Hurricane Sandy. To assist several food banks in areas hit hardest by this devastating storm Foodlink sent a truck load of healthy meal components and fresh produce to both City Harvest of New York City and to our colleagues at the Food Bank of Monmouth and Ocean Counties in New Jersey.
We provided canned veggies, canned fruit, fresh NYS produce, canned beans, peanut butter, tuna fish, and Barilla pasta.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the thousands of people affected by Hurricane Sandy. Several food banks are still without power – we at Foodlink will continue to assist our fellow food banks and their clients to the best of our ability. We are grateful for the community's support through Check Out Hunger this month at local Wegmans stores. The funds from Check Out Hunger will help Foodlink to replenish its warehouse after these emergency food-relief distributions to the east coast, and will also allow Foodlink to be prepared for future disaster relief efforts.
If you want to learn more about the team-effort behind large-scale relief in the wake of Hurricane Sandy, check out this article from ABC News.
Thank to everyone who has made our emergency response efforts efficient and effective during this time of urgency.

Posted on 12/21/2012 9:34:49 AM PST by Responsibility2nd
An unknown animal is attacking, but not eating, livestock in Kentucky, leaving many of the victims with gnawed or detached ears.
According to WAVE News, the attacks have been ongoing for several weeks in Shelby County, Ky. At least five goats have had to be put to sleep due to their injuries, and a goat named Polka-dot has been left with just one ear.
Kevin Cox, the local farmer who owns Polka-dot, has also had several of his bulls attacked, he told the news organization.
Kentucky officials are investigating, but there's no word yet on the culprit in the attacks. Odd livestock attacks often get blamed on supernatural creatures, especially the mythical beast el chupacabra, which means "goat sucker" in Spanish.

Bath salts?
Someone hacking off ear tags on cattle?
Bath salts?
must be one of them chewy-cadabra things...
My guess is a rabid coyote...
I blame it on ACME SILK PURSE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT for stealing the ears! They found the "Sow's ear" parable to be true.
"Someone hacking off ear tags on cattle?"
Bovine identity theft?
Wild hogs.
Would a coyote have the nerve to attack a bull though? I'm thinking that the only predator with the nerve to do this, that wouldn't just kill and eat the whole animal, is humans.
We have many people who run hogs with dogs and the dogs go for the ears.
Die Flederhund.
Rabid animals lose their sense of fear and natural instinct.......
Ah. John McAfee.
"I noticed my whole steer bull looking a little different..."
I know was a whole male is; I know what a steer is; I know what a bull is; but I'm puzzled over the above reference to a "whole steer bull".
Anyone have an explanation?
Anyone have an explanation?
I do. Here's a hint. The person speaking is a resident of what state?
Either it's a steer or a bull, but it isn't likely it's both.
I think that it has something to do with John Calipari!

Well, I will tell you - H Atom, Chris (and others) are ruining a once excellent McCartney Funsite.
In the name of McCartney/Wings fans they show ZERO class, humor or intellegence. If you don't respect yourself, McCartney, or his fans here - at least show some respect for the creator of the webpage, Mike.
I have not participated in a long time, but I do read up on Macca here, but it's currently a sewer because of you guys.
Notice how the number of participants are dwindling - in proportion to the number of dumb, vulgar and ANGRY posts you guys write? (My apologies to the remaining others that come here for fun and info - not to rant-scream-snide away.)
No need to call me out, I won't respond. If you have any reaction - make it in a positive way and clean up your act - or go away - VERY far away.

Many things change with the weather, from the colors of the landscapes even to some people's behavior. But that change hasn't to be a disagreeable one. Although one uses to prefer summer conditions rather than winter's ones, you can have a nice time any moment of the year. Tuscany's capital is a clear example of it. Why? It's quite simple:
-The joy of finding shorter queues after entering to Florence's magnificent museums and monuments, like the Uffizi Gallery.
-The pleasure of tasting a cup of hot chocolate or smooth coffee and then notice how you start feeling like you're in heaven, little by little.
-The possibility of go shopping in one of the most glamorous cities in the world and even find sales!
-The chance of go skiing, ice skating or snow-tubing at the Firenze Winter Park! It will remain open until 17th February, so you're still on time!
-The beauty of some temporary art exhibitions like "A message for you", dedicated to French photographer, Guy Bourdin, at the Museo Nazionale Alinari Della Fotografia.
-The challenge of using your imagination in order to explore a wonderful city filled with history and unseen nooks.
Whether it's cold or hot, come what may, at Il Salviatino, your luxury hotel in Florence, we're always willing to make you feel good.

A Historic Arizona Resort and Spa
The present Paradise Valley, bordered by Squaw Peak to the north, the canal to the south, Camelback Mountain to the east, and the wide-open desert to the west, was far beyond Phoenix city limits in the 1930's. When cowboy artist Alonzo "Lon" Megargee set his eyes on the isolated plot of land, it spoke to him – he built a one-room studio in the middle of it, and called it home.
Megargee, a native of Philadelphia, came West at the turn of the century, earning his way as a cowboy, bronco buster, stud poker dealer, commercial artist, and home builder, among his many occupations. He spent time chasing an idealized notion of the American Dream of rancher, Indians, and settlers that was fading fast even during his time. Along the way, his raw-boned charm snared several wives and earned him a well-deserved reputation as a ladies' man. But it was his adobe studio, set amidst the creosote, that perhaps was the closest to his heart.
Megargee added the studio to create more of a home using adobe blocks mixed and formed on site with the sandy desert soil. Working without formal plans but influenced by the architecture, Megargee studied in Mexico and Spain. He used old beams and wood from an abandoned mine and aged the exterior walls by pouring a mixture of oil and ash over them from the roof. During the course of several years, Megargee created a uniquely Southwestern home he dubbed "Casa Hermosa" which means Beautiful House.
To supplement his art income, Megargee began running Casa Hermosa as a guest ranch. He was a bachelor at the time, and Casa Hermosa had grown quite large. He was already hosting many of his friends who came to stay for extended visits, and it seemed natural that he would turn this exchange into a side business. Most of his business was legal, but the sheriff did make several unannounced visits to check on rumors of the late-night gambling sessions. Megargee thoughtfully provided guests with secret tunnels from the main house to the stables so that they could disappear into the desert, if needed.
By 1941, Megargee, in the midst of a divorce and in need of money, put Casa Hermosa, filled with his art and furnishings, on the market. The new owners, who had every intention of using the property as their private home, were surprised late one night by a taxi full of guests, and found themselves in the guest ranch business.
Over the years, the Inn evolved with different owners who added a pool, tennis courts, and the Casitas and Villas. The name was changed to the Hermosa Resort and the property became the center of social life for the neighbors, who used it as an extra bedroom for their guests and swam in the pool during the summer months. But by the late 1980's, Hermosa Resort was caught in the real estate and savings-and-loan crisis that touched most of the West. In addition, a devastating fire in 1987 severely damaged the main building – Megargee's old home.
In 1992, Paradise Valley residents Fred and Jennifer Unger, who had become intrigued with the resort and its history, bought the property and set out to restore its original charm. The Ungers worked with builder and designer, Dan MacBeth, also a Paradise Valley resident, to save the adobe walls of the fire-damaged main building, restore the charred old beams, and clean up the original ironwork that graces the building inside and out. The interior of the building, which now houses LON's at The Hermosa restaurant and the Inn's reception area, was furnished to reflect a 1930's Southwestern ambiance, much like it was during Megargee's days. Prints and originals of Megargee's artwork and photographs of him hang on the walls.
Known today as The Hermosa Inn, the hotel's seclusion and privacy attract guests seeking high-level corporate retreats, as well as those looking for an intimate desert hideaway.
It has even been said that Megargee, who died in Northern Arizona in 1960, still pays visits to Casa Hermosa from time to time.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (May 11, 2008)
- The U.S. beach volleyball team of Jake Gibb and Sean Rosenthal strengthened their hold on an Olympic berth by winning the SWATCH FIVB World Tour event in Prague, Czech Republic on Sunday.
Gibb (Bountiful, Utah) and Rosenthal (Redondo Beach, Calif.), seeded 13th, won their sixth-straight match of the tournament and got their fifth sweep in defeating 11th-ranked Julius Brink and Christoph Dieckmann of Germany in Sunday's final, 21-13, 23-21, in 47 minutes. The tournament was the eighth and final result Gibb and Rosenthal needed for consideration for the 2008 Olympic Games. Any further results they gain before July 20 can be used to replace poor results. Gibb and Rosenthal share a $28,000 first-place prize in claiming their second SWATCH FIVB World Tour gold medal.
The Americans' first title was in the 2006 season finale in Mexico as Gibb and Rosenthal failed to reach a FIVB championship match in six SWATCH starts last season. Gibb and Rosenthal, who was named the SWATCH most outstanding player for the Prague 2008 Open, placed fourth in the 2008 FIVB opener in Adelaide, Australia, after collecting two fifths, a ninth, a 13th and two 17ths in 2007.
"I think the big difference is that I am playing a lot better this year," Gibb told the FIVB. "With this event being part of the Olympic qualifying process, I realized that we did not help ourselves a lot last year in making it to Beijing. We were more focused with our preparation this year and it has helped us in getting to the semifinals in our first two FIVB events this season."
"Give the Americans a lot of credit for playing very well today," Dieckmann said. "We had our chances to send it to a third set after playing very poorly in the first set. They made some big plays at the end."
In the bronze -medal match, second-seeded Emanuel Rego and Ricardo Santos maintained the Brazilian men's streak of nine-straight SWATCH podium finishes by outlasting seventh-seeded Reinder Nummerdor and Richard Schuil of the Netherlands, 21-18, 19-21, 15-11, in 61 minutes.

Bridgeport's Welfare-to-Work Initiative Targets "Unseen Parent"
do you connect with a person who doesn't work, doesn't go to school,
doesn't use the services of organizations, and doesn't have custody of
his or her child on welfare? Bridgeport is answering this question
with the help of a Welfare-to-Work program operated under a
competitive federal grant by The WorkPlace, Inc., Southwestern
Connecticut's Regional Workforce Development Board. Because Workplace
officials believe that the employment of individuals fitting this
description - known as "non-custodial parents" - is part of
the missing bridge to family unity and self sufficiency, their
Welfare-to-Work effort includes services customized for them.
most other urban areas across the nation, Bridgeport has its share of
non-custodial parents - most of them male, most of them in need of a
job. With fear, distrust, a desire to avoid "the system,"
and lack of targeted and coordinated outreach often keeping them away
from formal service systems, non-custodial parents find ways to stay
in touch with their families and participate in a system of support
that blends welfare benefits and other non-formal income. Though their
families may grow and their relationships may change, the habit of
avoiding governmental systems is hard for non-custodial parents to
collaboration with the City, The WorkPlace's Welfare-to-Work program
is currently providing pre-employment training, on-the-job training,
job search assistance, job placement and retention support,
transportation support, repaired car purchase options, lifelong
learning incentives, and post-employment training for 154 individuals;
among the 81 Bridgeport residents in this group are 16 non-custodial
parents who are present despite the obstacles standing in the way of
their participation, and despite some serious personal concerns.
to these obstacles, The WorkPlace has developed strategies which focus
on contacting, enrolling and providing service to non-custodial
parents. The WorkPlace:
across this nation share the need to bring fathers and families on
welfare together," says Bridgeport Mayor Joseph Ganim, "and
Welfare-to-Work programs offer an effective web for reaching "unseen
WorkPlace's Welfare-to-Work program began in July 1998 with the award
of a three-year, $5,000,000 competitive grant to serve a total of 550
people in the Southwestern Connecticut region. While there are 20
communities in this region, the City of Bridgeport is home to 70
percent of the people in need of the program's services - primarily
long-term welfare recipients whose profile of limited education, low
skill levels, little or no work experience, and need for substance
abuse treatment makes them the hardest to employ.
the start of the program, 73 participants - most of them Bridgeport
residents - have been placed in jobs. Of these, 39 have met the 60-day
retention target and five have met the six- month target.

Here's how RW members rated this race (201 votes).
In short: Nice to run point to point for a change.In full: Another decent run from Purple Patch. Much better marshalling than at the Thames Towpath in the summer. Although it was 90% flat along the towpath the steep ramps under every bridge made it interesting. Could have done with more toilets at the start.Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: Typical towpath toilerIn full: Great to be involved in the first ever. Buses to start meant a chance to chat to other runners-quite a nice change. More toilets always a popular tip. I had to improvise in the park behind the locked gents-oh the irony.Race was friendly with minimal support and water stations (i hope something unpleasant happens to the chavs who stole the mile 3 water supply)...but the weather was near-perfect and a lovely run was had by most.Next year a t-shirt.goody-bag and more water and toilets please! see you next year.Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: Not enough refreshmentsDate of review: November 11, 2007
In short: Flat - good for beginnersIn full: I'm not a 'fast' runner, yet I managed to do my first sub 2 hr (1:55) so I'm happy. I imagine this is the lack of hills, so if you're after a steady run in cool conditions, this will be good.I was worried about the run ... how would a few hundred people down a narrow canal fair ... ... the start is a lap of a field, which soon splits people up and apart from one gate near the beginning that caused a bit of a pileup, it wasn't that bad - no worse than other races i've done. The organisers had limited the amount of people it allowed to run - sensibly - it was a good number.I heard some people at the end of the race complaining about the under footing and I guess if you're hard-nosed street runner, you won't like it - but what did they expect - it's a canal !!!The event felt 'small' but everything was efficiently done (although someone stole the 3mile water stop overnight!!)There was a van to drop off your bags, which was there waiting for us at Watford, which was very well done.I had a great run - it's only my 2nd ever half-marathon ... the first was a very hot and hilly St.Albans, so this was much needed confidence boost and I was happy with my pace and result.Might not be for everyone, but I personally had a great day. The sun even came out !Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: It's flat what more can i say!In full: Great flat race and excellent as my first half marathon. Really enjoyed myself and so pleased that i kept running throughout! Would have been better with more water stations 13.1 miles is a long way to run with only two small water stations. Also would love more toilets at the start as queuing at Tesco's for almost 40 mins to use their smelly loo was not the best start. Toilets on the route would have been excellent and a goody bag at the end with some kind of energizing drink would have made the finish sooo much better. Overall a great race that i enjoyed doing. Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: Well meaning but teething problems. Terrain harder than expected.In full: Definitely needed portaloos at the start - major ommission. Don't quite understand what happened to the water station at mile 3 - I only heard afterwards that it was stolen?? Difficult if, like me, you hadn;'t brought your own. Terrain was much harder going than i anticipated - I was hoping for a PB but ran a minute slower than a recent race. Organisers were very encouraging which helped make up for lack of spectators due to the nature of the route - hard to find motivation when the energy levels dipped. Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: Good race , well organised which is 90% flat.In full: i personnally did not enjoy the race much, as I was still sore from the Marlow race the week before.The course is quite fast as I limped round in just over two hours. Would do it again unless I get fitter I need more than a week to recover.Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: Good transport, great route, nice to do a bit of 'off' road', 2nd best time of the year so OK with me In full: Loos at the start would be good, easier to overtake than i thought before the race, good first timers race in my view and fun for the more experienced as well. 8.5/10Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: Exactly what it said on the tin!In full: 13 miles along the tow path of the Grand Union canal! Slightly ankle wrenching at points where you couldn't see what was under the leaves and not many overtaking options - but we knew that would be how it was.Loos at start only downside. Yes, H'y it did say where they were in the literature but not that there was only one in the petrol station or that the public loos would be locked! Never did find out where the pub was. It really needs portaloos. Part of my race prep is endless pre race loo queueing and not being able to "go" at the last minute was rather off putting.Nice chunky medal and look forward to doing it in the other direction!Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: More difficult than I imagined due to rutted paths & slippery leaves In full: Very pretty route. Transport worked out brilliantly. Only problem were insufficient loos at the start. Told we could use Petrol station, nearby pub and public toilets but the pub and public toilets were closed!!!! This meant that everyone was queuing for one toilet in the petrol station. Had to abandon this idea and use the bushes!!!!Date of review: November 11, 2007

"We must not confuse the present with the past. With regard to the past, no further action is possible. "
'Captain' Baldwin Breaks the Code
Oh, Alec! You've gone and done it now. When you got kicked off that American Airlines flight on December 6 because you didn't want to turn off your phone and stop playing Words With Friends and got mad at the flight attendant and slammed the bathroom door, well, you exposed the airlines' dirty little secret, didn't you?
The secret? Not only do they have no idea whether personal electronic devices cause problems to aircraft electronics, they also know that enough flights have flown safely with a lot of devices inadvertently left on that there obviously isn't a problem. I'm not the first to point this out; Nick Bilton did so ably in his New York Times blog post.
But you, you American treasure—Alec Baldwin—with your rude behavior (which we secretly admire; aren't we all tired of the flying police constantly telling us to do this, that and if you don't mind I need to feel you up before you get on that airplane), you let the cat out of the bag and are forcing the airlines and the FAA to answer some tough questions.
Like, why is it that the pilots get to use iPads—during takeoff and landing no less—and we have to turn ours off? Aren't the pilots a lot closer, umm, right next to those critical electronics? If iPads are so heinous, wouldn't the FAA have told pilots that they can't use them to read charts and look up stuff in their manuals? (I wonder if the FAA specifically says that pilots can't read the iPad version of their favorite magazine or newspaper while cruising along, sipping a fresh cup of coffee? When everything goes right, flying, especially long distances, can be pretty darn boring.)
And why, if personal electronic devices could cause so much trouble, haven't we seen any evidence of that? No crashed airplanes, no landing on the wrong runway, no "Whoops, I meant to turn right and the airplane turned left." Nope, pilots do all that stuff by themselves plenty often; they haven't even tried to blame personal devices as far as I've seen, reading accident reports over many years.
So, Alec, thank you, by the way, for your cute appearance on Saturday Night Live (December 11, it's still available on Hulu, about 37 minutes in), pretending to be American Airlines Captain Steve Rogers apologizing to…Alec Baldwin. (FYI, you were wearing a first officer's uniform with three stripes; captains get four, but no biggie, you were still pretty funny.) And you (playing the captain) said, "What harm would it do to let him keep playing his game? Not any game, mind you, but a word game for smart people."
What harm indeed? It's time for the airline industry and the FAA to acknowledge once and for all that an iPhone or iPad or smartphone in airplane mode is safe. And that having a phone or Kindle on your lap during takeoff or landing is as safe as reading a heavy hardback book, which isn't prohibited.
By the way, I did ask the FAA why it's OK for pilots to have iPads in the cockpit but not for passengers to turn theirs on during takeoff and landing. The FAA believes that the tests it requires of the airlines, including testing iPads with specific aircraft, plus allowing only a limited number of devices for pilots is much safer than a few hundred passengers all watching movies or reading ebooks at the same time.
Well, sorry, has anyone ever tested that? I'd like to know. And as Alec Baldwin/Captain Steve Rogers said on Saturday Night Live, "Would you really get on an airplane that flew 30,000 feet in the air if you thought one Kindle switch could take it down? Come on! It's a cruel joke perpetrated by the airline industry. And we would have gotten away with it, but Alec Baldwin was just too smart for us. He really is something."
Yes, you really are something, Alec. But, dude! Aren't you like, rich? Why would you even think about flying on the airlines? Haven't you heard about private jets? Wouldn't you like to try one?
Call me. I'll hook you up. And guess what? You can play Words With Friends or slam the bathroom door as hard as you want in your own jet.

Fundraiser set for local cancer patient
MARQUETTE – Area residents are encouraged to come out for a bake sale fund-raiser for Karen 'Boots' Oster-meyer, who is battling breast cancer.
Ostermeyer, whose cancer has been in remission for the past six years, was first diagnosed with breast cancer when she was 38 years old. But when her pelvic broke two weeks ago, doctors were able to determine that the cancer had resurfaced in her bone, on a rib and possibly in her lymph node system.
"It kind of took her aback, but she's handling it as well as she can," said Jeri Brisson, a close friend of Ostermeyer's.
Brisson said she met Ostermeyer 10 years ago when they worked together at Pediatric Specialists in Marquette.
"Karen is a loving, generous person with a very big heart," Brisson said. "She is always the first person to help those in need."
All proceeds of the bake sale will go toward living expenses and medical costs for Ostermeyer, who is healing from her pelvis injury in a nursing home. Within the next eight weeks following recovery from the broken pelvis, she will begin chemotherapy.
A silent auction will also be held during the bake sale, as many local businesses have donated toward the cause.
The fundraiser will be from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Wednesday in the lobby of the Upper Peninsula Medical Center at 1414 W. Fair Ave. in Marquette. It is being sponsored by Pediatric Specialists and Ostermeyer's Chub Club members.
Abbey Hauswirth can be reached at 906-228-2500, ext. 240.

We use to cook our pizzas on pans. We did a thick crust with seasoned pans and also had a thin crust on pans similar to what you showed in the picture. Large pans were 16" and had holes in the pan. The 12" pans didn't have holes. We didn't like the way the pizzas cooked (crust sometimes didn't cook in the center very well) so we went to cooking on screens. The pizza seems to cook nice on screens if the dough is fresh (made that same day). If we try to use the dough the next day, it seems to not cook crispy and is doughy in the center.We have a Blodgett oven.Also, not sure what peel launching is.Should let you know...we have our restaurant up for sale. I have another full time job and my wife and I are not wanting to be restaurant owners any longer. However, we want to produce a good product while we still have it.

Benedict Cumberbatch | The Inside Man
Distinctive both in name and appearance, Benedict Cumberbatch plays the pivotal role of Peter Guillam -- the accomplice of George Smiley (Gary Oldman) in his quest to discover the identity of a Russian double agent -- in TINKER, TAILOR, SOLDIER, SPY. Being cast in this part was a dream come true for Cumberbatch for several reasons. First off, there's the A-list cast, including Gary Oldman, Colin Firth, John Hurt, Tom Hardy and Ciarán Hinds. Cumberbatch quipped to The Guardian about the film's talent roster, "That's a call sheet I'm going to frame and keep for ever." Moreover, he rose to the dramatic challenge posed by playing Guilliam, a young impressionable British agent who is made to deceive the very institution to which he has sworn his allegiance. "It's the kind of role, in the kind of film, that you crave to have as an actor because it involves subtle shifts, it's not about everything being on enormous display," he told the website Flicks and Bits. Indeed, as he told the Daily Mail, "I've always wanted to play a spy, because it is the ultimate acting exercise. You are never what you seem." The elegance of his performance, showcasing both a confident intelligence and a deep emotional confusion, is not lost on critics. Xan Brooks of The Guardian applauds him: "Benedict Cumberbatch is mesmerizing as the well-groomed gentleman conspirator coming slowly apart at the seams."
Benedict Cumberbatch | Early Stages
Cumberbatch at Harrow
London-born Benedict Cumberbatch is the son of actors Wanda Ventham and Timothy Carlton (who's real last name is Cumberbatch). From an early age, Cumberbatch was drawn to the theatre and to the spotlight. In an interview with London Theater, he recalled being "a very bossy Joseph in the Nativity play at primary school. Apparently I pushed Mary offstage because she was taking too long." Hoping to provide him with alternatives to the stage, his parents sent him to the elite boarding school Harrow, with hopes he might pursue the law. "I got the idea of becoming a lawyer by watching Rumpole of the Bailey," he told USA Today. But real-life lawyers proved less romantic than his fictional models. "I started meeting people they throw at you to put you off — these worn, vampiric-looking creatures who hadn't seen daylight for a long time. I thought, 'Wow, I'm thinking of becoming a lawyer because it's more sensible?'" At all-male Harrow, he had to settle for playing female roles (he was Titania in A Midsummer Night's Dream and Rosalind in As You Like It), yet it did little to dissuade him. After studying at Manchester University and the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, he found an agent and quickly established himself as a gifted stage performer.
Benedict Cumberbatch | Small-Screen Sherlock
Cumberbatch in the BBC hit series Sherlock
Benedict Cumberbatch was so in demand as a stage actor that he could easily have made a career of playing Shakespeare, Ibsen and Eugene O'Neill in the West End; however, that was not to be his fate. In 2004, he was chosen to play Stephen Hawking in the BBC's small-screen biopic of the physics genius, Hawking, and gave a brilliant performance that won him a Best Actor nomination at the BAFTA Awards. A number of other TV roles followed (including playing opposite fellow TINKER, TAILOR, SOLDIER, SPY star Tom Hardy in STUART: A LIFE BACKWARDS in 2007) before he found even greater success playing another brilliant British brain, Sherlock Holmes, in Sherlock, the smash hit BBC series that transposes Arthur Conan Doyle's mysteries to the present day. "There's a great charge you get from playing him, because of the volume of words in your head and the speed of thought – you really have to make your connections incredibly fast," Cumberbatch told The Guardian about playing Holmes. "He is one step ahead of the audience, and of anyone around him with normal intellect."
Benedict Cumberbatch | ACTOR OF THE YEAR
Cumberbatch in upcoming WAR HORSE
His poise, stature and very proper voice give Benedict Cumberbatch an aristocratic quality that makes him a natural for costume dramas, and it's no surprise that he made his first major impact on the big screen in a period piece, playing William Pitt the Younger in AMAZING GRACE, the 2006 biopic of British abolitionist William Wilberforce. The same year he appeared opposite James McAvoy in STARTER FOR 10 (based on a novel by One Day's David Nicholls), and in 2007 reteamed with McAvoy on ATONEMENT. More period roles arrived, with Cumberbatch playing William Carey, a courtier of Henry VIII in THE OTHER BOLEYN GIRL (2008), and Charles Darwin's friend Joseph Hooker in CREATION (2009). With a hit TV show and a lead in the TINKER, TAILOR, SOLDIER, SPY, it's no wonder that British GQ crowned him "Actor of the Year," noting these achievements, as well as his upcoming turn in Steven Spielberg's WAR HORSE and in Peter Jackson's THE HOBBIT, are "all proof (whatever your powers of deduction) that Cumberbatch's huge star is surely rising."
