text: CHICAGO, March 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The Family Defense Center announces a unanimous victory in the Illinois Supreme Court, which ruled the state's child welfare agency exceeded its authority when it adopted a broad rule to label thousands of parents guilty of child neglect. In Julie Q. v. DCFS, the Court rejected the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services' defense of the "environment-injurious" rule, which was not part of Illinois' Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act in 2009 when DCFS used it to indicate Ms. Q. for neglect. The "environment-injurious" definition was removed from state statute by the General Assembly in 1980 on the grounds it was unclear. In its decision, the Court said DCFS exceeded its legal authority in labeling Ms. Q a child neglecter when the legislature had expressly removed the "environment-injurious" language from Illinois law. "When the legislature stated that it was removing the environment-injurious language 'until such time that we can arrive' at a clearer definition, it was referring to a time when it, the legislature, arrived at the definition. It was not granting DCFS the authority to create a definition of its own," the ruling states. FDC attorneys and their client Julie Q. will discuss the ruling Monday, March 25, at 1 p.m. via teleconference. For dial-in information, email firstname.lastname@example.com , or call Shawn Taylor at 312-371-6260. DCFS had received a hotline call from Julie Q.'s ex-husband as they were embroiled in a bitter custody battle. She subsequently lost custody of her 9-year-old daughter to the father – without any evidence of harm to the child. An estimated 13,000 families a year have been affected by the "environment-injurious" rule, according to DCFS estimates. Julie Q. turned to the Family Defense Center which successfully challenged the decision in the Illinois Appellate Court in 2011. After the Center's appellate victory, DCFS appealed.

The center panel's river of blood and the destruction caused by earthquakes on the right, with inscribed passages from Ezekiel, Isaiah, Hebrews, and Revelation, emphasize the fate of those who forego redemption.

The Tenwolde
"I don't like the way you're looking at me?"
"Sorry, come again."
"I wasn't looking at you."
"You are now."
"Only cause you...wait, hold on. If we're going to sit across from one another, this can't go on."
"I agree completely. So stop looking at me like that."
Harris buried his face in his hands for the umpteenth time that morning. Transferring offices was never easy, and that difficulty is only compounded when you sneeze and cause the human resources drone to spill its coffee. That's how you get seated across from The Tenwolde.
Generally speaking, using an article with a name denotes a family, as in referring to the Bergmans, or the Smiths. However some individuals are so singularly peculiar as to require such use for them alone, as most people hope that there is not a family of similar abberations at home.
The Tenwolde snorted, muttered something in a foreign language, presumably Klingon, and went back to brutally attacking his keyboard. Harris was beginning to notice a pattern. Some patterns are soothing. Other patterns slowly wear away at your sanity and make you want to gnaw at inedible things while having horribly dark thoughts.
Rather than let his thougths get too far, Harris decided to make a run to the supply closet for more pencils. Yummy, comforting pencils.

Cash CallAnaheim , California USA

Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I just read in the LA Times, that cash call is being sued by the State Of New York for charging extreme instrest rates most over 100% and as high as 300%. I made an emergency loan through cash call, for $5000.00, and if I repay the loan at the current interest rate, my repayment will be almost $40,000.00!
If anyone out there is suing these sick folks at cash call, I want to jump on board, they are deducting almost $500.00 a month out of my checking account. This has got to stop, I'm downsized with my job at the end of this month, and don't know how to proceed.

" I made an emergency loan through cash call, for $5000.00, and if I repay the loan at the current interest rate, my repayment will be almost $40,000.00! "
What exactly is the ripoff? You appear to have thought the interest rate was OK when you needed $5K. You agreed to pay it. On what grounds do you propose to sue them?
While I agree that taking out loans for triple digit interest rates is not a smart financial move, the time to make that decision is BEFORE agreeing to the deal and taking the money. These legalized loan sharks exist because usury laws in general are rarely enforceable. New York is attempting enforce theirs, but they have an uphill battle as the lender is a tribal entity. I think it's mostly a publicity stunt by an A.G. with political aspirations Doesn't matter to you since you don't live in New York.
Even if CA's Attorney General was interested in pursuing such suits, that would take years and you probably wouldn't be off the hook anyway.
Realistically, your best bet is to pay off that balance as soon as possible and get out from under that crazy interest rate.

text: Hello everyone, I just bought a Sony VAIO VPCEA3S1E and I have a problem with my WIFI connection. It says it connects to the local network and internet, but in reality, internet doesn't work. When I try to 'resolve the problem', it indicates that "The default gateway is not available". I've updated all things I could update (including VAIO related, Windows update, as well as the driver of the WIFI card) but the problem remains. In contrast, my flatmates manage to connect to the Wifi network. Also, I can have internet through the ethernet cable. FYI, my Wifi card is ATHEROS AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter. I'm also attaching a zipped version of the information system (.rar). I thank anyone who could tell me how to resolve this issue, as I really need to access internet through the Wifi... Cheers, jsr

if you have bluetooth and OSX leopard, and a blackberry, the Bluetooth modem tether script works excellent... even if the cell internet is slow by wifi or broadband standards.
I'm on T mobile's network (no anti modem rules, unlimited dataplan) using an unlocked cingular phone, with backdated Cingular software (newer software prevents the modem feature).
I previously had a Tmobile blackberry phone that was also on backdated Tmobile software for the same reason (back when i was on tiger), but someone thought they deserved it more than I...
I recently went across the southern US and other than a few dead areas, I was able to use my macbook's internet (slowly, but it works) whenever and whereever I needed it.
jsut be careful.
some providers get a bit peeved and charge big $ if they find you use your cell phone as a modem, so if you are Not on Tmobile try to get the card or adapter and a data account to be safe.
I have a treo 650 with Sprint. Using the phone as a modem is incredibly easy to setup and use. I think it's either 15 or 25 bux a month or so for their unlimited internet package. There is a phone as modem plan as well, but it runs about as much as a card. With the 700Ps and above DUN (dial up networking) is disabled unless your are paying for the PAM (phone as modem) plan. The 650, however, is not disabled. So if you have Sprint, pick up a treo 650 and car charger for cheap off eBay, and just throw it in your glove box. It connects through bluetooth. I have yet to have any complaints with Sprint, but I second what attack eagle was saying. I have heard of outrageous phone bills if they catch you. It's not fast, so you can't stream mp3's over the internet or anything, but for normal web surfing and email, it's sufficient. Although, I've heard with an iPhone you can setup routing rules, setup an ad-hoc network, and use the machine's wireless to get to the internet. With 3g it should be pretty decent speeds as well. That'd be the way to go. But I'd do a little research on that first. I'll be doing some fairly soon, so I'll post my findings in when I get to it.

Battlelines have been drawn for the two seats covering the scheduled castedominated Doaba region with the Congress shifting its sitting Jalandhar MP Mohinder Singh Kaypee to Hoshiarpur and fielding former minister and senior leader Chaudhary Santokh Singh from Jalandhar.
Initially, Kaypee was reluctant to shift his seat to Hoshiarpur, but the party high command's wish prevailed keeping in view the strong anti-incumbency against Kaypee and his nonperformance as MP.
Hoshiarpur MP and union minister of state for health and family welfare Santosh Chaudhary has been denied the ticket after her poor show as MP and the open revolt against her by the local unit of the party on several occasions.
With Santokh, a renowned Dalit of the party, contesting from Jalandhar, the seat is set for an interesting contest between fresh faces from the SAD and Congress.
The SAD has already declared sitting Adampur MLA and chief parliamentary secretary Pawan Kumar Tinu, the Dalit face of the party in Doaba, as its candidate.
Santokh is two-time MLA and contested the 2012 assembly polls unsuccessfully from Phillaur (reserved) constituency where he lost by 33 votes. Even as Santokh's son and state youth Congress chief Vikramjit Chaudhary was also in the race the father was preferred for his experience and clean image.
In Hoshiarpur, Kaypee will face BJP's Vijay Sampla, a fresh face from the saffron party. It will be difficult for Kaypee to shed the tag of a non-performer as Jalandhar MP.
Sources in the Congress said that initially Kaypee was reluctant to shift his constituency but finally got ready after Sampla was made the BJP nominee from Hoshiarpur. The Kaypee camp thinks Sampla is comparatively a weaker candidate.
Meanwhile, in Jalandhar, supporters of Santokh celebrated his ticket. "Santokh is a senior leader who is sure to outshine Tinu," said state Congress secretary Anil Dutta.

The Honourable Gregor McGregor (18 October 1848 – 13 August 1914) was an influential Australian politician and trade union leader of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century.
Born in Kilmun, Argyll, Scotland, McGregor worked in the Glasgow ship building yards prior to his emigration to the colony of South Australia in 1877. Initially working as a builder's labourer and a gardener, McGregor became involved in the union movement, rising to the position of President and Secretary of the United Builders Labourers' Association and President of the Trades and Labour Council, which inevitably led to his involvement in the formation of the Labor Party, and served as President of the United Labor Party in 1893/94.[1]
Although suffering from deteriorating eyesight that would eventually leave him legally blind, McGregor became one of the first Australian Labor Members of Parliament when he was elected as a Member of the South Australian Legislative Council in 1894, serving in the Council until his resignation in May 1901 in order to accept a position as a Senator for South Australia. He compensated for his blindness with a memory described as "astounding", able to recite lengthy passages perfectly after hearing them read, usually by his mother-in law.[2] As a Senator, McGregor served in Australian Labor Party government cabinets as Vice-President of the Executive Council prior to his death in 1914. He served as the party's first leader in the Senate and first Deputy Leader (at the time, the two posts were equivalent).[1]
McGregor married twice but had no children. He died of a heart condition at his home in Unley, survived by his second wife and stepson.[1]

IBM Targets Small Business with z10 Mainframe
Aimed at small to mid-sized businesses, the Systems z10 Business Class (BC mainframe is IBM's leaner, cheaper version of the high-end mainframe released in February.
The z10BC is the small to middle business version of the Linux mainframe z10 Enterprise Class (EC) which took over from the Series z9 in February this year. According to IBM the stripped-down model with its quad-core processor, hardware accelerator and cryptographic functions, has much of the same innovative technology as the EC version. Linux developers Red Hat and Novell worked with IBM on the project and both offer special conditions to run their Linux versions on the Systems z10.
The compact Linux delivers capacity equal to 232 x86 servers and prices begin at $100.000 with an end-price, according to configuration, between $250.000 and $500.000, says IBM. Red Hat and Novell are tempting customers with discounts for both versions of Linux.
With the dimensions 0.8 x 2 x 1.8 meters (one cabinet), the "baby" needs 3.5 square meters of service clearance area and weighs 860 KG. At a room temperature of under 28 Celsius, the four I/O decks require together 6250 watts, the mini version 3700 watts. The z10 supports from 4 GB to 120 GB real memory with an option of up to 248 GB planned in June 2009. In comparison, the EC has between 16 and 1520GB RAM and measures 1.5 x 2 x 1.8 meters (two cabinets), fills 5.7 square meters of service space and weighs around 1250KG. The z10EC consumes between 9.700 and 27.500 watts and costs somewhere between 1 and 1.5 million dollars. The performance factor in comparison to single x86 processors lies by 1.5.
A detailed PDF technical overview is available from IBM with the reference number SG24-7632 (around 230 pages), along with a link to a slimmer PDF guide on the product page.

Hey there,
I'm Janet. I was born and raised in Minnesota. My favorite title is mommy to two of the smartest, most beautiful, spunky, sweet girls out there. When I'm not taking care of the little peanuts, I run my photography and design businesses.
I stumbled across Pixel Scrapper early on when it was first started (before it became the site that it is today). Ironically, I ended up messaging Marisa to see if I could help contribute. I wanted to find a way to give back. Little did I realize that years later I would end up being fortunate enough to join this fab team! :)

That is why i wanted to propose Jeff earlier. I think that being a committer helps productive people be more productive.

Congressman Mo Brooks (R-AL) has been appointed to serve on the Budget and Spending Task Force for the Republican Study Committee (RSC) by Task Force Chairman Congressman Scott Garrett (R-NJ).
"I'm looking forward to working with my colleagues in Congress and on the Republican Study Committee to stop out-of-control spending and help restore fiscal sanity to our country," said Brooks. "Our deficit is an unsustainable and growing threat to America. According to the White House, this year's deficit is already projected to be $1.6 trillion; if we do not make deep and lasting changes to spending, our nation will face bankruptcy."
The Task Force will work on drafting the Republican Study Committee FY 2012 budget and provide recommendations to the RSC about areas where government spending can be reduced.

Tim Sherwood is the only manager Aston Villa have spoken to in their quest to replace Paul Lambert and the club are hoping to come to an agreement with the former Tottenham Hotspur man over the weekend.
The club have revised their plans and instead of going for a short-term candidate to take them to the end of the season – and keep Villa in the Premier League – they want someone for the long-term who will secure them survival and build for the future.
Sherwood, 46, has been in contact with the Villa chief executive Tom Fox and ideally the club would like to have him in place ahead of the next league game, against Stoke City a week tomorrow. The former England manager Glenn Hoddle, who left his coaching role at Queen's Park Rangers after Harry Redknapp's departure, is not understood to have had any contact over the job despite being named as one of the potential candidates.
A long-term project is the kind that Sherwood has sought since leaving Tottenham at the end of last season. Villa want a manager who can make progress in the Premier League in the same way Southampton and Swansea have done – with astute signings and by developing young players
Sherwood had extensive talks over the QPR job and sought basic assurances about the club's plan after the summer, when they face the prospect of a £40m fine from the Football League for contravention of its financial fair play rules.
The two parties could not reach agreement and Sherwood now finds himself in contention for a third different job in the space of two months, following his talks with West Bromwich Albion at the end of December, and then QPR.
While the situation at Villa has obvious challenges – they are in 18th position with just 13 games to go – the size and potential of the club is a huge attraction. Chris Ramsey and Les Ferdinand were Sherwood's coaching staff during his time at Spurs in the developmental role as technical coordinator and then manager. But with those two both at QPR, Sherwood would have to recruit a new assistant at Villa.
As well as Fox, there has also been input from the director of recruitment, Paddy Reilly. Any appointment will have to be approved by the owner, Randy Lerner.
In the meantime, Scott Marshall, formerly a coach under Lambert, will take the team against Leicester City in the FA Cup along with Andy Marshall, the goalkeeper coach. Scott Marshall said that he did not consider himself a candidate for the job in the long-term.
"This is a big club and it's not somewhere for someone to cut their teeth," he said. "It's certainly a big club and I would say there's not many things which are going to prepare you for this experience so I think a manager with experience is probably necessary but it's not really my decision or my call."Reuse content

Nixie: Ring my Belle
The weather in Kansas City was dreadful, and to make matters worse, the atmosphere in the cirque was even more chilling. It seemed as if the Admiral had posted his cronies at every turn I took. Even now while I warmed up my hardly healed body in the ring for that night's performance I could sense someone watching me. I bent gingerly to straighten my leg warmers and from the corner of my eye I saw a tall man dressed in black lurking in a corner.
As angry as I normally would have been, I was subdued by the bruises on my back and the memory of what had happened. After making it back, Lisette, Myah and I decided to keep away from each other and Stinger until…if, Camille came back.
No, I thought to myself, she's okay and she's coming back. I stood up, let out a shaky breath and woke Kaveh and Ensi up. I really needed her to come back.
"Everyone split up," Camille whispered, bolting for the other side of the theater before anyone had a chance to react.
"Wait, what?" I hissed before noticing that everyone else was already gone.
I clicked my teeth in frustration at my slow reaction time. Glancing around the wide room I noticed a gaggle of high society women all in sparkling finery and sauntered over. It was time to make a slight spectacle of myself.
"Would you ladies believe this is my very first time at one of the affairs?" I said, plopping myself right in the middle of their group and laying on a thick southern accent.
Startled, they all shot filthy looks my way but did their best to ignore me. One of the women, an amazon with jet-black hair and a nose like a hawk, couldn't conceal her curiosity.
"Angelina Mordeau, my husband is a highly decorated general in the army." She extended a dainty hand, which I shook lightly.
"Freda Belle, it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance."
I small blonde woman with immaculate makeup and diamonds pouring from her earlobes turned to me with raised eyebrows. "Belle, as in the Atlanta Belles?"
What harm could it do? "You hit the nail right on the head, sugar," I answered, winking.
That got the attention of all the women, and they started chattering excitedly at once.
"So Fredrik Belle must be your father! What is it like to be the daughter of such a renowned firearms dealer?" asked Angelina, all smiles.
What sort of women talked about things like this? I was beginning to feel a little out of my league when the lights dimmed and an announcer walked out onto the stage.
"Oh goody, the show is about to begin," I sighed. "I wonder what sort of performance it will be."
"Honey, this is not that kind of show," whispered a redhead causing everyone to chuckle. "Here, have some champagne."
She handed me two flutes, one of which I chugged right away. My head began to swim immediately which I attributed to me being a lightweight.
"We only come to these things to make our husbands look good," Angelina said, laughing. "Tell me a little bit about yourself. I met your mother once; she didn't mention having a daughter."
I shrugged and started sipping on my second glass while trying to come up with a story. "I'm what people call the 'black sheep' of the family. She hates that I would rather go country-hopping with nothing more than a sturdy pair of boots and a backpack, than frequenting society luncheons with her."
The women were throwing questions at me left and right and I answered them with more ease as I became more comfortable with the persona I was weaving. With my other ear I was trying to get a grasp on what was going on onstage, but it wasn't making any sense.
When the lights came back on I realized I had ingested 3 glasses of champagne, and it felt like the room was spinning. I didn't think I was that cheap of a drunk.
"Freda, would you mind introducing us to your charming father? I'd like to take a good look at what he purchased today," asked Angelina.
"What do you mean?" It was getting increasingly harder to focus.
"Why, isn't that him over there?" The blonde woman was point to a far corner on the other side of the room. A well-built older man with a graying head of hair was sitting down shaking his head in apparent frustration, and standing over him whispering something in his ear was the creepy man I had spotted with Wiseacre before Aaron left.
"I'm not exactly supposed to be here…" As if I had shouted his name, the creepy man looked up and made eye contact with me, causing Fredrik Belle to look up as well. "If you would excuse me, ladies, I need some air."
Stumbling over my dress I tried in vain to make it to the front doors. My vision was hazy and I had to hold onto the walls to keep from falling over. I could feel myself starting to sweat and willed myself not to pass out or vomit before I got outside.
It had been creepy enough to get tickets and fake IDs from some unknown benefactor, but to have my false identity be linked to someone as potentially dangerous as Fredrik Belle was downright frightening.
I heard someone call my name and looked up to see the blurry outline of Stinger. "Oh good," I whispered, "Please help me, I think I've been—ouch, Stinger you- you're hurting me."
He had closed his vice-like grip around my wrist and it was already beginning to bruise. "I'm sorry, Nix, you've got to get out of here."
Before I could even think, he lifted me up and flung me as hard as he could. I hit the front doors with a loud crunch and lost consciousness. As I drifted in and out I heard screams, then felt fresh air hit my face, and the steady movement of a car.
"Camille?" I asked, reaching out.
"No, it's me, Myah," she said, squeezing my hand. "Lisette is here too, we managed to get you out before Stinger could hurt you again. I saw a man put Camille in his car but he was gone before we could get to him. We need to get you to a hospital."
"What is happening to us?" I asked softly before losing consciousness again.

The UK's largest and fastest-growing veterinary group has continued its expansion by taking over three further practices.
CVS Group has taken over Alnorthumbria, in the north-east of England, and Torbridge Veterinary Hospital and Okeford Veterinary Centre, both in the south-west.
Simon Innes, CVS chief executive, said: "Alnorthumbria is a strong fit with our existing operations, significantly increasing the group's presence in the north-east and enhancing our large animal and equine business. The acquisition of Torbridge Veterinary Hospital and Okeford Veterinary Centre will boost our presence in the south-west.
"We are delighted to welcome the teams from all three practices to CVS and look forward to a successful partnership."
Alnorthumbria was founded in 2007 by the merger of Aln Veterinary Group and Northumbria Veterinary Partnership. It operates nine sites across Northumberland – in Amble, Fairmoor (two sites), Rothbury, Seahouses, Alnwick, Wooler, Ashington and Ponteland. It employs 24 vets and has more than 100 staff.
Torbridge Veterinary Hospital employs around 30 staff, including nine vets, in its hospital in Bideford and at branch surgeries in South Molton and Great Torrington, all in Devon. Its clinical director, Bill Slee, has a special interest in imaging using radiography and ultrasound.
Okeford Veterinary Centre employs 18 staff, including six vets, across its two sites in Okehampton and Chagford, Devon.
CVS now owns 115 practices across 310 sites in the UK, as well as laboratories offering diagnostic services, pet crematoria and an e-commerce division.


text: SAVANNAH, Ga., Dec. 20, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Gulfstream Aerospace Corp. today delivered its first fully outfitted ultra-large-cabin, ultra-long-range Gulfstream G650 aircraft. The first aircraft was delivered to a U.S. customer. Gulfstream Aerospace Corp. is a wholly owned subsidiary of General Dynamics (NYSE:GD). "We're extremely proud of this aircraft and the work that's been done by the G650 design, build and supplier teams," said Larry Flynn, president, Gulfstream. "The first delivery of an aircraft is always an auspicious occasion and this one is especially so. This delivery represents the beginning of a new era in aircraft design and manufacturing in terms of quality, capabilities, reliability, parts availability and maintenance activities. "We're thrilled to see the first G650 leave our hangar for a customer's. Soon the G650 will be a common sight at airports around the world," Flynn said. Jay L. Johnson, chairman and chief executive officer of Gulfstream's parent corporation, General Dynamics, said, "The G650 sets a new world standard for business-jet performance, range, speed and comfort. I am very proud of the Gulfstream team. They have done a superb job in designing and manufacturing an aircraft that is already the envy of the global market." Gulfstream recently announced enhanced performance characteristics for the G650, including more range. The G650 can now travel 6,000 nautical miles (11,112 km) at its high-speed cruise of Mach 0.90. This is a 1,000-nm (1,852-km) increase over the original target of 5,000 nm (9,260 km). The additional capability makes city pairs such as Tokyo to New York, New York to Dubai, Shanghai to London and Moscow to Los Angeles possible at speeds faster than any other business jet. The G650's takeoff balanced field length decreased to 5,858 feet (1,786 m) from the original 6,000 feet (1,829 m) at the aircraft's maximum takeoff weight of 99,600 pounds (45,179 kg). This improvement allows the G650 to fly farther from demanding, short runways.

RENO, Nev. - The University of Nevada women's tennis team will continue its season by putting its four-match winning streak on the line when it travels to face Northern Arizona and Arizona State.
The Wolf Pack (4-1) has won four straight matches since dropping the season opener against Hawaii. Nevada won its previous two matches over Cal State Fullerton and then UC Davis by identical scores of 5-2. The girls have been showing the results of everything they've worked on at practice, according to head coach Guillaume Tonelli.
"They work hard day in and day out," he said. "It's nice to see when it is all coming together for them as a team on game days. We plan to keep up the momentum this week in Arizona."
Monika Magusiak is leading the charge for Nevada, as she is an unbeaten 5-0 in singles play thus far. Her last victory came over Tiffany Pham from UC Davis by a score of 7-6 (4), 7-6 (4). Michelle Okhremchuk is 3-2 thus far in the spring, and she sits in second place for career singles victories at Nevada with 77. Okhremchuk trails first place Tracy King (83) by only 6 victories. In her first singles match of the spring after recovering from injury, Juliette Legendre snatched a win over Kamila Kecki in three sets.
The Wolf Pack will open the trip with Northern Arizona University in Sedona, Ariz. The Lumberjacks are 2-6 so far this season, but riding a three-match losing streak into the matchup with Nevada. NAU had won its previous two of three before the slide, with wins over Montana State and Western New Mexico.
After battling with NAU, the Wolf Pack will travel intrastate to No. 25 Arizona State, where it will have a showdown with the Sun Devils (7-2). Arizona State is coming off a 6-1 victory over Nevada's in-state rival, No. 60 UNLV. The Sun Devils have wonfour of their last five, with wins over San Jose State and Montana State.
The match with Northern Arizona University will begin at noon on Feb. 21.

Ed Hill, owner and chef, sent the recipe, which is made in 5-gallon portions, with some ingredients in large No. 5 or 10 size cans. The recipe was reduced by Journal Sentinel staff.
Hill called his business a "country bar and restaurant with good food." It's open Wednesday through Sunday for lunch and dinner. "Our house special is the Cadillac Margarita on the rocks, and we have a sandwich menu with a large selection featuring the jumbo Argonne burger," Hill said.
"Our dinner menu has house specials such as bourbon steak with Portobello mushrooms, deep-fried green beans with bourbon sauce, whiskey river pork chops charbroiled with maple syrup glaze, and Parmesan haddock baked in a casserole."
Hill said he has been cooking and running restaurants since 1961.
In a large pot, brown beef. Drain off any excess liquid, then add all remaining ingredients except beans. Simmer 2 ½ to 3 hours, stirring every 10 to 15 minutes. Add beans and heat through.

Would Like to Get a Quote for TT, BL and BBL. I Can Only Afford 12000?
I routinely perform tummy tuck, Brazilian buttlift, and breast lift - hundreds of times per year. I will say that you could probably do all of them together provided you have an expert surgeon who perform all of these in under 6 hours and that you are healthy. Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials and look at his or her website before and after galleries to determine the quality of work done. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Finding Plastic Surgeon for Me?
It will be up to you to do your due diligence in the process of plastic surgeon selection. I would suggest starting with the American Society of Plastic Surgery and/or the Aesthetic Society of Plastic Surgery to obtain a list of well experienced board-certified plastic surgeons.
Then, I would suggest you visit a few surgeons whose practices concentrate on aesthetic surgery. Ask to see lots of examples of their work and preferably speak/see patients who have had similar procedures done. You will find, while doing your due diligence, that there are many different "specialties" who will offer their services to you; again, I strongly recommend you concentrate on surgeons certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.
I would also suggest that you do not base your selection of plastic surgeon primarily on costs of surgery; keep in mind that revisionary surgery may be more costly in many ways.
I hope this helps.

Discussion in 'Colorado Football Message Board' started by Jens1893, Jun 30, 2007.
Ohio State is required to play one of the other ohio schools every year. All of which are non-BCS schools. Not EXACTLY the same, but similar.
It's a stretch to call Nebraska a respectable BCS school. But don't they play Troy State every year?
Texas seems to play Rice quite a bit, but that has more to do with recruiting Houston, and giving Texas alums living in H-Town, an opportunity to see another scrimmage, er...game.
Actually Miami and FSU are in the same confrence now
Jens must be 3 years in retro.
at one point, they weren't, and scheduled each other yearly, along with florida. this has been going on for some time, has it not?
Penn State plays Pitt, and seeing as the Big Least is holding on to it's BCS status by it's fingernails, that pretty much counts.
Isn't the last time they played each other was in 2000 or something like that?
PSU cancelled the Pitt series because.... SAME as NU.... they wont do 2 home games per 1.
PSU is all about home games and the financial windfall to State College.

Aerospace medicine gearing up for tourists in space
■ Physicians anticipate some civilian space travelers will have chronic medical issues.
- » Space doctors dwindling
A commercial space flight industry is working to make the adventure and romance of space travel available to the general public -- or at least to those with $200,000 or more to spare.
Space tourism, still in its embryonic stages, has some experts estimating that 10,000 to 15,000 people a year will fly in orbital and suborbital space in the next decade.
For aerospace medicine physicians, this will mean preparing a less physically fit passenger for the demands of space. Instead of 20-year-old fighter pilots in peak condition, space tourists could be 18 to 80 years old with medical conditions that might complicate space travel but not automatically disqualify them.
"We're bringing civilian space travel into a different medical paradigm," said Jan Stepanek, MD, MPH, director of the aerospace medicine program at Mayo Clinic in Arizona and a physician within Mayo's executive health program. "Are these people going to have problems with coronary artery disease or pulmonary disease that could put them at risk? Something that could lead to an in-flight medical emergency that could compromise the safety of passengers or the safety of the flight?"
These are the questions he is asking as he anticipates the challenges ahead. If there is a typical space tourist, that client might mirror the men and women in Mayo's executive health program, Dr. Stepanek speculated. There, 75% of clients are male, and 55 is the average age. They also tend to be successful businessmen and -women with hard-driving personalities and corresponding health problems, such as hypertension and coronary disease.
This is why Mayo Clinic in Arizona has joined aerospace experts at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston and Wyle Laboratories in Houston to form a medical space tourism program. The trio is offering commercial space flight companies their services to screen and prepare civilians for trips into orbital and suborbital space.
The program has yet to sign its first client, but when it does, Dr. Stepanek anticipates that the space tourist likely will be heading off for a suborbital trip, which lasts two to three hours, including a 30-minute rocket ride into space. At least two commercial space flight companies, Virgin Galactic and Rocketplane, anticipate inaugural suborbital flights before the end of 2008. Another commercial space company, Space Adventures, has sent four clients into orbit. For $25 million each, its customers stay at the International Space Station for 10 days.
Physically preparing tourists
Space tourism may sound futuristic, but civilian space flight is real enough that the Federal Aviation Administration has issued guidelines.
It has not, however, set specific medical standards for passengers, said James Vanderploeg, MD, MPH, visiting associate professor of clinical preventive medicine at UTMB and chief medical officer for Virgin Galactic. He is screening more than 100 people who have paid $200,000 each for future suborbital flights.
Creating specific medical standards is one of his tasks for Virgin Galactic. But his work is complicated by the lack of scientific data on how g-forces affect the average person.
Nevertheless, aerospace health experts say the initial patient screening steps will be simple. Clients will see their personal physicians for a physical and have the results sent to their carrier's aerospace physician.
If they are flying Virgin Galactic, Dr. Vanderploeg will read their records and flag worrisome ones.
To better evaluate how potential passengers with health concerns such as hypertension, diabetes or obstructive pulmonary disease will handle g-force stress or atmosphere changes, Dr. Vanderploeg plans to ask them to undergo a centrifuge ride or altitude chamber session.
The centrifuge duplicates launch and re-entry, where gravity may build to six times a person's body weight. Under this stress, passengers can practice breathing and do other exercises to help them handle the demands on their bodies, he said.
For example, during acceleration, the blood drains from the head toward the toes. If individuals are not prepared to counteract this, tunnel vision develops and the person may pass out. During re-entry, the g-forces create chest-to-back pressure, pushing more blood into the head, sharply increasing blood pressure in the brain and increasing stroke risk for those with hypertension.
Cabin pressure is expected to be the same as on a commercial flight, eliminating the need for pressure suits, Dr. Vanderploeg said. But the typical cabin will be snug.
"If you don't like being inside a little airplane, you won't like being in a small spaceship," he said. "When that rocket engine lights, you are going somewhere in a big hurry, which can be very frightening."
Dr. Vanderploeg said it eventually may be possible to include people with physical disabilities.
Stephen Hawking, PhD, the well-known physicist who has amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, successfully participated in a parabolic flight, which creates moments of weightlessness.

He was hungry.
That was a bit of an understatement.
To say Ling Yao was simply hungry was like saying a blizzard was a simple sprinkle of snowflakes. Or that a giant squid was a cuttlefish. Or that... Nevermind.
Ling Yao was dying on the street from hunger. In fact, if it hadn't been for the inhuman gurgling coming from his gut, passersby probably would have assumed he was dead.
But he wasn't. And he was very, unconsciously, thankful for the short man that dragged him into what smelled like a tea shop. When he peeked open an eye, that was, in fact, where he found himself.
However, not wanting to exert too much energy, he closed the eye once more and waited until the delicious aroma of something edible found its place before him. At that point he snapped both eyes open, grabbed the cup of steaming hot tea – not food, he noticed with a small bit of chagrin – and tossed the thing down his throat.
It burned, sure, but he was content that at least something had made its way into his stomach. With a semi-contented sigh he smiled cheerfully at the gray-haired man. "Do you have any more, sir?"
The man smiled back. "Mushi, and of course! Would you also like something to eat, sir?"
"Ling Yao. And... I currently find myself without any way to pay for food, unfortunately." Despite the rather discouraging statement, the broad smile remained firmly in its spot.
Mushi seemed to consider Ling's predicament before grinning and shrugging it off. "Ah, I'm sure you can have a meal on the house. We can't have anyone dying inside a tea shop, now can we?"
At the mention of 'on the house,' a teenager stuck his head out of the back, glared at the old man and shouted a brief "Uncle!" Ling wouldn't have paid him any heed if it weren't for the disfiguring burn scar over his left eye. He watched him carefully as Mushi introduced him as his nephew Lee before widening his smile.
"It is such a pleasure to find such kind people here in... this... city..."
Mushi had already shuffled off to get a meal together, but Lee remained and glared at Ling. "You say that as if you don't know where you are."
Ling paused before nodding slightly. "Ah, that would be correct."
Lee's glare deepened, and Ling noticed that the scar helped him when he wanted to look angry. "You don't know Ba Sing Se? How can you be in the Earth Kingdom's capital without knowing it?"
Ling's smile didn't fade. "Ah, I'm on a mission, you see. I'm looking for something, and I tend to lose track of where I am."
Mushi returned then with a plate of food and another cup of steaming tea. "A mission, eh? Sounds so official."
While he didn't go after the tea as he had before, he began eating the provided food vigorously. After eating enough to rid himself of the ravenous feeling of earlier he paused. "Yes. I'm searching for something. Once I find it I can return home and become emperor."
Mushi and Lee both froze and stared at him, looking somewhat shocked. After a second Lee's glare returned full force. "Become emperor? What are you, a prince?"
Ling nodded, smiling his way through the obvious distrust Lee was showing towards him. "Yes, actually. However, I am only one of many clans. In order for the Yao clan to be distinguished, I must find the key to immortality and return with it. Then I will become emperor."
Lee snorted and returned to what he was doing, muttering something about fool's errands under his breath.
Mushi, on the other hand, seemed very curious, and he sat down across from Ling, who had continued eating. "So, where are you from, Prince Ling?"
Ling waved absently with his fork in a vague indication of direction. "Xing. It's quite a ways from here. And you don't need to call me prince, no one else does."
"Because you're not one, likely..."
Both Ling and Mushi looked to Lee, Ling curiously and Mushi with a glare. "Do not be disrespectful to our guest, Lee! He is to be honored in this humble shop."
Lee shot back a retort and they degraded into a brief argument while Ling tried to stop them. His attempts were rather feeble. "Eh... No... Ah... You don't need... Really... I don't..."
After a moment Lee stormed to the back of the shop and vanished while Mushi stood and sighed. "I apologize for my nephew. He is not used to showing respect to others."
Ling nodded thoughtfully and weighed his words carefully before speaking. "No, it's fine. I don't mind it. I understand why he would not want to hide his pride to respect someone like me. Perfectly understandable, sir."
It had simply been a guess, but at the brief flicker of suspicion that appeared on Mushi's face, he formed the guess into a theory. While the looked didn't remain for long, Mushi paused before bringing him another cup of tea silently and continuing about his business in a strangely sedate way.
Ling shrugged and accepted the tea, blowing lightly on it to cool it as he thought. Lee had seemed spiteful to the idea of Ling having been a prince, and somehow the idea that Lee himself was, or at least had been at a point, a prince began nagging at the edge of his thoughts. He even had evidence, though it was admittedly weak.
Either Lee was jealous, or knew that princes simply did not show up unconscious on the street with no money.
Either Lee thought he knew about fool's errands, or he had been on one himself.
Either Lee was a cocky brat, or he had a reason to be so proud.
Ling may have seemed simple to those around him – he knew he came across as it sometimes – but he could pick out subtle clues and piece them together.
But it was just a theory, after all.
"Young Master!"
Ling looked up sharply from his tea and thoughts to the doorway, where two masked figures knelt. He brightened immediately. "Ah, Ran Fan! Fu! So wonderful to see you again!"
The figures left their kneeling positions to stalk over to the Yao's table while a few patrons and Lee watched curiously. Or, in Lee's case, rather suspiciously. One knelt again once he reached the table. "We have been searching for you, Young Master, for two days. Where have you been?"
Ling paused and shrugged. "Seeing the sights of Ba Sing Se, of course. It is the capital of the Earth Kingdom, after all."
The other seemed to be giving the impression of a glare, but the mask hid any facial expression. "You should not run off so easily, Master. Someone could assassinate you."
"Ah, Ran Fan, who is here to assassinate me? Xing is a long ways off from here, and I doubt any other clan has come searching here."
Ran Fan tensed. "Then why are you searching here?" Almost immediately she dropped to a knee and bowed her head. "Forgive me for questioning your judgment. It is frustrating being away from home for so long."
Ling pulled her up by the shoulder with a frown. "Hey, hey, no apologizing like that, Ran Fan. I understand." He sighed and stood up. "Well, I suppose we should look where there may be clues, then. I believe the alchemists in Amestris may know."
Fu finally stood and nodded briefly. "That is likely where we will find it, if we are to find it at all. We should leave now, Young Master."
Ling nodded slightly before scanning the small shop. When he spotted Mushi, who was working rather busily for such slow business, he walked over and bowed. "Thank you for your kindness, sir. It was very much appreciated. I wish there was a way I could repay you, but I must continue my search. I hope we cross paths again in the future."
Mushi sighed and stopped what he was doing to watch Ling carefully. "Yes, it would be rather interesting to speak again in better times. I wish you luck on your quest, sir." He paused before breaking into a cheerful smile. "And come back for tea sometime, eh?"
Ling smiled in return. "Of course. I would not want to pass up such wonderful tea the next time I am in the area." He turned slightly to watch Lee continue his own work. With a brief frown of consideration he moved over to the scarred teenager and leaned close enough to whisper. "And I do hope you achieve what you seek as well, Young Master."
Without waiting for any kind of response he returned to Ran Fan and Fu and headed for the door with a brief wave. "Thanks again, Sir Mushi! Excellent tea!"
They left quickly and navigated the backstreets easily, with Ran Fan slightly ahead of Ling and Fu above and behind. Ling was rather glad for their presence, and he allowed his thoughts to drift. He had a legendary object to find, after all, and he needed a plan.
I was browsing the forums (something I don't usually do, it was a first) and saw someone mention something about Zuko and Ling being very similar. It struck me, and I wondered why it hadn't struck me before, and I couldn't help but come up with a brief meeting.
Zuko and Iroh are Lee and Mushi in this because that's what they went by in the Earth kingdom to avoid suspicion.
For those of you wondering who Ling is, pick up the FMA manga sometime. Infinitely better than the anime, which I adore, so it's saying a lot. He's introduced in... volume 8? I believe 8, because he's in the background of the cover picture.
He has a horrible habit of falling unconscious on the street and being fed by strangers.
I don't own FMA or Avatar. That's a given.
And... I like the beginning, but farther along I get to not liking it as much as I would... well... like. Oh well. This was actually done awhile ago, I let it sit and stew so I'd be able to edit it better, but... Other than technicalities I'm not sure how that turned out...
