PPP denounces "insensitive remarks" on Jagdeo
The People's Progressive Party today issued a statement denouncing what it described as "disparaging and insensitive" remarks made about former President Bharrat Jagdeo during his recent illness.
Jagdeo was reportedly diagnosed with a virulent strain of dengue fever and had to be flown two Fridays ago to Florida on a chartered plane for further evaluation and treatment.
The PPP statement follows:
The People's Progressive Party Civic has noted the disparaging and insensitive remarks made by various opposition politicians and their agents after former President Bharrat Jagdeo took ill earlier this week.
The party wishes in no uncertain terms to strongly condemn the inhumane and sinister positions taken by these opposition spokespersons who are continuing their campaign to spew hate and misinformation against the former president. It is clear that the opposition has no statesmen or women within its ranks. It is clear that the opposition has no moral dignity or respect for privacy.
The PPP believes that any attempt to play down the seriousness of the health condition of the former president at that time, while questioning the need for him to travel abroad, must also be seen as an attack on Jagdeo's fundamental rights as enshrined in the constitution and right to access timely health care.
The ruling party has never questioned the urgency or necessity of any opposition politician or public official to travel abroad upon the instruction of their medical advisors or caregivers.
The PPP wishes to remind the opposition that several of its members including Former Opposition Leader Robert Corbin and the late Sheila Holder benefitted from assistance from the State to seek medical attention abroad when it became necessary.
In the most recent past when former Deputy Speaker Deborah Backer was ill and flown abroad for medical attention, this party offered nothing but best wishes and hopes of a speedy recovery.
The party further condemns the insensitivity and disrespect shown to Jagdeo. While it is expected that there will be political attacks, the party was alarmed by the extension of these assaults to the point where unbelievable misinformation was being peddled by the opposition provocateurs and their activists about the costs for his travel abroad and his medical entitlements.
Despite the shenanigans of the opposition and its acts of desperation, which are aimed at bad-mouthing Jagdeo, his track record and zeal remain intact and stronger than ever.
The PPP wishes Jagdeo a speedy and full recovery.

Doug Lichtenberger will serve as Tulane's linebackers coach and special teams coordinator when spring practice opens in two weeks, several sources close to the Green Wave said.
Lichtenberger replaces Jon Sumrall, who left Tulane in December to the associate head coach position at Troy under longtime friend Neal Brown. Lichtenberger will not assume Sumrall's role as co-defensive coordinator.
Lichtenberger has served on Tulane's football staff for the past eight seasons in varied capacities. He began as a tight ends coach and recruiting coordinator for Bob Toledo in 2007 before eventually being named special teams coordinator before Toledo's firing in 2011.
He was one of just two assistants to remain with the university following the hiring of head coach Curtis Johnson in 2012, however, Lichtenberger moved into an administrative role at that time, taking over football and recruiting operations.
However, during the 2013 season, when then-linebackers coach and special teams coordinator Barry Lamb was diagnosed with an illness that kept him from coaching the final month, Lichtenberger was called in to take over special teams duties. He served in that capacity through the Green Wave's loss to Louisiana-Lafayette in the New Orleans Bowl, before returning to an administrative role at the season's conclusion.
It's the second hire Johnson has made for his staff this offseason, bringing in former New Orleans Saints assistant wide receivers coach Carter Sheridan to take over for Keith Williams, who left to coach receivers at Nebraska.
Tulane declined to comment to officially comment on the hires.

Within weeks of its launch, Intelligent Mobile Support's (www.imobilesupport.com) mobile solution, Axon is receiving praise from users. One of the nation's most respected distributors, Gustave A. Larson Company (www.galarson.com), recently adopted the new technology, citing Axon's positive influence on new-customer recruitment and building loyalty with established contractors such as Shavitz Heating and Air Conditioning (www.shavitz.com).
"Axon helps us differentiate ourselves from our competitors," says Gustave A. Larson Marketing Specialist David Blau. "It makes our customers' technicians more efficient in the field and gives them immediate access to our service advisors. Axon is a great marketing solution, too. We can send marketing messages via text or display banner advertisements while the service technicians are troubleshooting the equipment. IMS has developed an amazing product; we're very excited to share it with our dealer base as well as prospective business partners."
Axon, a smartphone/tablet application developed by Solon, Ohio-based Intelligent Mobile Support, is designed to streamline and strengthen the technical support process. It includes Hot Pages from OEM manuals to help technicians find installment and repair solutions quickly; Live Connect, a direct line to service experts, typically at the distributor level; and Dialog, which improves communications within a contractor's organization as well as between the contractor and distributor.
Shavitz Heating and Air Conditioning 's Service Manager, Brad Hunley, also saw immediate value in the new solution, and purchased Axon for every one of its service techs. The technology further impressed the company's CEO, Bronson Shavitz, who is presenting Axon as part of a seminar on Mobile Tech on March 18, 2014 at 2:30pm in the Washington B Room at the ACCA Conference in Nashville, TN (www.acca.org/education/conference).
"Axon will help us eliminate service delays and prevent profit-eroding customer callbacks," says CEO Bronson Shavitz. "With Axon, we can tap into the service expertise of our entire company and instantly reach all of our distributor's service advisors. Axon literally delivers all of this service expertise to the doorsteps of every one of our valued customers. Yet as important as it is to our bottom line to eliminate service delays and call-backs in the short term, the real benefit is keeping our valued customers for the long term. At the end of the day, happy customers give us the word-of-mouth referrals that help us grow."
IMS offers free Axon webinars to contractors, distributors and OEMs interested in learning more about its capabilities.

Perhaps the greatest thing about Android smartphones is the mobile access to information. Everything from your contacts to your local retailers has become a searchable pool of data, accessible through your mobile phone. Whether you're looking for a job or file on your phone, here are some of the top apps to get you there.
General search tools
Google Search is well-integrated with its Android platform, and comes with each device. From the widget or the search button, query the web, your contacts, apps and other saved items on your phone. Free, Google Search comes with voice tools, suggestions as you type and access to your search settings. Instant access for stock prices, weather and more are included on this app. For a hands-free approach, Google's voice search is useful. Search your phone, the web and local listings by voice, instead of typing. From there, you can call venues or your contacts, or request directions. Google app also lets you perform a few phone commands for dictating text messages and emails. For those few, who prefer searching on the web with the rival Bing, Microsoft released the Bing app for Android.
If it's your phone you need to search, and not the web, try Andro Search. This free app is a full-text search tool, letting you query your contacts, documents, files, apps and more even when offline. File search will also lookup for query text inside the documents, ebooks and pdf files.
Yellow Pages has done a great job converting into the digital age, with a free app to pull up local listings. Read reviews and contact information, get filtered ratings and save items of interest for later access. Yellow Pages supports voice search, letting you speak the type of business or service to pull up a list of results. Plot venues on a map, and navigate directly there.
Gesture Search
Google Gesture Search is a unique app that serves as more of a future concept or tech demo than an actual integration into the Android software. The app's whole goal is to experiment with a new way to browse the content on your phone. Instead of typing or even vocalizing your search, you can now write the search on your touch screen.
So let's say I was looking for a certain application out of the hundreds I have installed on my device. I can write the first letter of its name and continue to write letters until it appears on the screen. This is a very useful tool for anyone annoyed with the need to use a keyboard. While it does provide a new experience and way to browse, it still isn't something that I personally believe to be practical. The process of writing letters on the screen still requires opening the app, writing however many letters it takes to narrow the selection, and tapping on the app.
Google Gesture Search Android App Review – AndroidApps.com
Review of Google Gesture Search by https://androidapps.com
This app could be useful if someone has a ridiculously large contact list but still the ability to utilize voice commands still trumps this app. It is available free in the Android Market so definitely try it out. It is pretty accurate and fun to use the first few times.
Niche search tools
There are plenty of apps that will help you identify music playing around you. Among some other, the biggest names on this field are Google Sound Search app, Shazam, TrackID from Sony and SoundHound.
If you're in search of a job, Indeed's Job Search app is the way to go. Free, the app searches multiple job boards and web sites, concentrating your search efforts from a single location. Save your searches for later access, drill down your search by location, and pick which ones are worth applying for. LinkedIn, the social giant focusing on professional network, is becoming a great place to find your dream job or hire experienced co-workers. They released the LinkedIn job search app that accelerates the process.
Focus Your Search with the LinkedIn Job Search App
Use the Advanced Search feature of LinkedIn Job Search app to filter, target and find a job you love. Download it today: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.linkedin.android.jobs.jobseeker&hl=en

Dr Hom has been my Dr for over 10 years. She has seen me for a lot of different health issues. Some more serious than others. She always listens to me. Knows how to treat each different health situation. I wouldn't go to any other Dr.

My old doctor left the group, so I picked Dr. Hom as our new doctor. I met her the first time today. She listened to me as to what my concerns were, she adjusted by medications, told me to follow up with a new visit in one month and lab work done in 2 months. She was attentive, caring, explained how to do certain exams. I felt safe and comfortable. I am a male and this is my first female doctor and I am very happy with her compared to my prior doctor.

I like her!
I like Dr. Hom. She's caring, asks me if I have any questions, is friendly, and efficient. I have not had a misdiagnosis from her in the 6 years I've been going to her. I would recommend her. Unfortunately, the office is so busy that it's hard to get an appointment right away, unless it's urgent.

I couldn't believe how horrible my appointment went with this dr. I asked for a new birth control, and she wouldn't tell me what she was going to prescribe me. Then I continued to tell her about suffering PTSD from the suicide of my 19 year old brother and without saying another word, she asked if I need a refill on my prescription for the medicine I was on to treat it. Further more, I told her about gaining 45lbs in the year after he died despite continuous diet and exercise (I trained for an ran 3 half marathons in that year) and she told me I needed to try harder to lose weight, that's all it was. 8 minutes with her and I left feeling horrible. I'll never go back. The office was pretty gross too, and the rest of the staff wasn't very friendly either.

No Bedside Manners
As a 44 yr old I came to her explaining that I had been having weird heart palputations and that my father died at 47yrs old of a heart attack. I asked her if there were tests to see if I may have early heart desease, she said only EKG and seemed very disinterested. In Jan 2011 I was having extreamly painful headaches with memory lapses and lack of ability to process words, she asked my why I didn't just take an asprin for my headache and when I asked to see a Nerologist she said "if that would make you feel better but in the mean time just take an asprin". This was said with MUCH sarcasm.I have since left her practice and been diagnosed proporly.

Great Doctor
Dr.Hom is energetic and awesome. She has always asked me the questions that got to the root of my illnesses. She talks fast and asks a lot of questions, which may not be your style but it gets quick answers out of people who probably ramble on and waste the time of the people waiting in the lobby for THEIR appointment. I have received proper treatment every time she has seen me, which lately has been pretty often. I give her an excellent rating!

August 14th, 2010
I had been having symptoms off and on for a while but put off going to the doctor until I could truly identify what was bothering me. This doctor did not even let me finish telling her my symptoms before she sent me away to "get labs". She did not examine me at all. She did not ask any follow up questions or investigate any of my symptoms. After the labs were drawn, the office sent me a form letter telling me to lower my cholesterol. That is not the root of my problem, nor has my problem been solved by her. I am shopping for a new doctor...one who will actually be interested in delivering health CARE.

Panjuo was a loyal retainer to the Crane Clan Champion Doji Hotei in the 6th century. When his wife died before bearing him a child, Hotei abdicated as Champion, took a horse and his daisho and left his home. With him rode his two faithful retainers, Sanzo and Panjuo. In 582 the Crane went to war with the Lion Clan, but Akodo Shakato had victory within his grasp. The Crane troops were retreating, leaving a direct route to Kyuden Kakita, when the now old samurai and his two elderly retainers charged through the Crane and into the Lion. The Crane rallied and won the day, but Hotei died on that battlefield surrounded by his two retainers and the Lion. [1]

Puerto Rican boxer Wilfred Benitez hospitalized
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico -- Retired Puerto Rican boxing great Wilfred Benitez has been hospitalized in the U.S. territory after family members worried he might have suffered a stroke.
Yvonne Benitez tells The Associated Press that her brother will remain under observation for 72 hours. She said Friday that the family is awaiting medical tests results but that the 54-year-old Benitez is doing well and reading newspapers and magazines.
Benitez is the youngest fighter to ever win a world title, at 17 years old, but he struggled with traumatic brain injuries later in life. He was previously hospitalized in October 1996 after being found unconscious at home and currently uses a wheelchair.
Benitez's record is 53-8-1, with 31 knockouts.

Return to Fiction by Mima
Mima opened an eye, followed by the other and noted she was in her own house in the forest. Slowly her mind started to work and she recalled the events last night, a night of magical testing turned into live-fire practice when Mima and Marisa found a group of seemingly timid youkai, but didn't want to take the risk and used them for target practice.
"Marisa! You still here?" Mima yelled.
There was no reply. "She's already at the shrine at this time?" Mima dozily looked at the clock which showed 12:30. "How the hell did I sleep? I'm going to be late!" As Mima quickly straightened her robes and collected her hat, she thought that there wasn't anything to be late for, but continued to rush anyway.
Drifting above the trees of the forest to wake her up, Mima soon arrived at the shrine which once again looked like a warzone with damage everywhere, and oddly enough, what looked like a pile of clothes heaped by the shrine. Reimu and Marisa stood in the centre, the former looking unhappy.
"So, what fun's gone off here? Had a fight between you?" Mima laughed as she dropped down from the sky.
The miko replied, "Don't tell me you didn't notice all the youkai running around lately!"
Mima paused, "No, not really, I haven't been looking; it's not my job to hunt for them." She replied with a sly grin.
Before Reimu could reply abusively, Marisa cut in, "Hey, well, you're just in time Lady Mima!"
"For what?" Mima asked curiously.
"Our journey to stop them, of course! You slept through the last one!" Marisa continued enthusiastically.
"Oh, yes. That time." Mima recalled her encounter with Murasaki.
"Well, shall we go then?" Mima questioned.
Reimu shook her head, "We're doing things a little differently this time."
"What?" Mima said, puzzled.
"We don't know where they're coming from specifically, so we decided we'd go in pairs, that way we can search twice the amount!"
Mima looked sceptical with an eyebrow raised, "A pair means two, and don't get me if I'm wrong, but there's only three of us, four if you count the turtle, but little miss Miko's not good enough to by herself." Mima evilly grinned.
Once again, Marisa cut in before Reimu, "Yea-yeah…" Marisa looked around, "Hey Reimu, there is only three of us."
"There's one more." Reimu spoke, before pointing towards the shrine, "You're with her, now come on Marisa."
As Marisa was being pulled away she shouted, "Race you there Lady Mima, bet we beat them before you do!"
Mima slowly floated over to the shrine, looking for whoever Reimu pointed out.
There's no-one here. Nothing but this broken statue, shrine wall and… this pile of clothes.
Suddenly it hit Mima, it wasn't a pile of Reimu's red and white clothes, it was someone curled up asleep.
Bemused by the situation, Mima used her staff to poke the sleeper, causing muffled speech, "Mfh, leave me alone… I'm trying to sleep…"
Grinning, Mima continued to poke the girl until she started to stir. "Go away… what do you want...?"
Eventually, the girl sat up, causing a cascade of long green hair to flow in the wind slightly, before she yawned, "Who… who are you?" She spoke, quietly, and barely awake.
Mima stood in a formal position and spoke in a boastful voice, "I'm Mima, and I'm the deity of this shrine."
"Really?... Didn't think there was a god here…" The girl yawned again.
"Yes, well there is, standing in front of you." Mima spoke impatiently.
There was an awkward pause, where Mima stood as the girl yawned once more. "So… what do you want then?" The girl mumbled.
"I was told by Reimu that we were meant to be going together to fight some youkai, and stop the source of them all." Mima explained impatiently.
"Fighting… you say? Sounds fun." The girl suddenly picked up at that sentence.
"Yes, now are you coming along or are you going to fall back asleep?" Mima complained.
"Of course I'm coming!" Suddenly in a burst of energy, the girl jumped off the floor, grabbed an object nearby, which turned out to be a parasol and stood ready. "Yuka Kazami."
Mima was half-surprised at her sudden burst of energy, "Okay then… I guess we should leave now, Reimu and Marisa have already had a head start."
"Of course we should, we're missing out on the fun." Yuka spoke excitedly as she took to the air and floated down towards where the pair previously left.
Mima paused to wonder how she knew the way, but then realized it was clear from the trail of destruction, shrugging slightly she hovered to catch up with the rushing youkai.
"Kazami, perchance are you the youkai that was beaten last year by those two?" Mima questioned.
"I hardly call it 'beaten' when they storm into my house and beat me up while I'm asleep."
Looking at her when she first woke up, I'd hardly call it that either.
"It seems the shrine is becoming a home to youkai lately, there's been more and more youkai hanging around there." Mima commented.
Yuka looked back, "What's the problem with that?"
Mima laughed slightly, "Oh nothing, just a sign of how lazy Miss Hakurei is."
Yuka didn't reply and instead opened her parasol, using it to block the sunlight.
A few moments later, Mima noticed that they'd come face to face with a familiar site, the mountain from the events a few years ago.
Never thought I'd be here again so soon.
Although the track lead them to the other side, where eventually an entrance could be seen in the side of the mountain.
"I'd say this has to be it." Mima stated.
Yuka replied sarcastically, "You think? Just look at the pattern around the entrance, that doesn't occur by itself."
Mima glanced at the formation and saw a strange foreign pattern, with more structured marks at the top, possibly even another language?
As the duo studied the strange pattern a voice called out, "More intruders, what's with them today?"
Mima looked at the entrance of the cave, where a pink haired girl emerged wearing a simple red dress with a white shirt beneath it. Her eyes matched the colour of her shoulder length hair. "What do you want?" The girl questioned.

Easy-Peasy Camping Recipe Idea: Camping Sloppy Joes
When it comes to camping food, the meals that I plan for have to meet a couple of criteria:
- They Must Be Easy
- They Must Be Affordable
- They Must Be Filling
These requirements are found in all of my camping meals, and therefore in my free camping meal plans.
Camping Sloppy Joes are no exception.
A Treat For All Ages: Campfire S'mores Dip
Let's talk about s'mores for a bit.
They're everything that's good about camping.
They can make the worst day better.
And they bring out the best of the flavors in chocolate.
When we go camping, they're absolutely essential..... I would sooner leave home without bug spray than I would without the ingredients for s'mores.
{Well really, there are other essentials I won't leave without. Here are some awesome examples}
This, of course, begs the question: Why change something as good as s'mores?
Campfire Meatloaf Bombs
When we go camping, we play hard.
We've gone floating down rivers for hours at a time (harder than it sounds), swam the day away, hiked, fished, biked, and of course jetskiied.
Even though I always fear we're going to be bored, we find ourselves exhausted and happy at the end of each day.
Which is why we try to make dinner pretty hearty. Full, rich flavors, plenty of protein, and warmth for the cold nights are absolutely essential - but so is ease. I don't mind cooking over a campfire, but after a long day who wants to slave away to make dinner?
Not me!"Read
Crockpot/Campfire Chili
Oh I am so looking forward to the crisp leaves, falling temperatures, and oh-so-much time spent outside.
And boots!
I love boots!
Fall is the perfect time to make family memories over a nice, hot, bowl of soup, especially when we're camping!"Read
11 Simple & Quick Camping Tips
My husband has said, on more than one occasion, that I'm a nightmare when I'm packing for a camping trip.
It's not that I don't want to go, it just that camping by definition is away from cities. It's rural and probably pretty far from the closest walmart.
So the prospect of forgetting something important freaks me out.
That's why I use these simple and quick camping packing tips to simplify, reduce my stress, and never forget anything important:"Read
Free 4th Of July 6-Day Camping Meal Plan
It seems like just last week I was writing about how I couldn't believe it was already June, and here I am again, writing about how I can't believe we're only a few days away from the 4th of July!
Those people that told me time would go by faster as I got older were definitely NOT lying.
Especially during the summer, I feel how fast the time flies, and if your children are in school, I can only imagine that you feel that pull to make the most of your time even more than I do!
Thankfully, there is no shortage of things to do if you enjoy being outside: playdates, swimming, parks, free community events, and the zoo, to name a few. And even though it's hot in almost every area of the country, we are (and hopefully you too!) starting to acclimate to the heat and playing outside is actually becoming enjoyable!"Read
Campfire Potatoes & Sausage
It's almost here!
Our 6 day 4th of July camping trip is almost here and we couldn't be more excited! I'll have more on that later, but for now I need to get all of these recipe out to you that you'll need for the free camping meal plan!"Read
Marinated Kebobs Over a Campfire
Whether you're comfy at home, or camping in the elements, sometimes you just need a "throw it together and see what happens" sort of meal.
When the mud just keeps finding its way into your house.
When the dishes are piling up.
Or when you just needed a little more sleep in the morning.
Please believe me when I say I've been there and I get it.
Camping Breakfast Pull Aparts
I'm so excited to share this awesome recipe with you today!
I've been meaning to get this recipe out there for a few weeks now (since our 4th of July camping trip is coming up very soon!), but to say life has been busy these last few weeks would be an understatement...let me explain:
When we purchased our home 3 years ago, it was with the expectation that when we moved away to better school districts, we would keep the house we purchased for very little money and use it to make money by renting it to tenants. As a result, we've been slowly working our way through the house painting, remodeling, and updating to not only raise the rental income potential but hopefully attract better, longer term tenants."Read
Easy 4 Cheese Campfire Mac And Cheese
We don't normally associated, creamy, dreamy, 4-cheese macaroni and cheese with a campfire meal.
Usually, that's something you would find in a casual restaurant where you sit down and enjoy a nice meal with your family. All good, and definitely worth spending time doing.
But I would argue that there is something to be said for enjoying good - no, enjoying GREAT - food around the campfire. It doesn't matter whether you love camping or abhor it, good food makes it all better.
Mac 'n Cheese of any kind reminds me of home. The kind made by Kraft that comes out of a box, it's Aldi-branded counterpart, homemade, or even the adult Mac 'n Cheese that we once had at Eckhert's Orchard during a day trip.
For me, it's a mix of all things good: childhood, family, comfort, and home."Read
Memorial Day Free Camping Meal Plan (5 Days)
We're getting all set for our 5-Day Memorial Day camping trip to Rustic Acres Campground.
This will be our first time camping at a private campground (as opposed to using our annual parks pass at a national or state park) so I did a quit preparation post about this campground, what to expect, and with details about the campground if you're considering camping at this private campground or another.
Now that we've prepared for the difference in campground, it's time to get set with a meal plan! Being 45 minutes from the closest Walmart + trying to stay within a budget means that meal planning is absolutely essential!
I give you these meal plans for free to help you out, but I did want to make a couple of notes about this one and others:"Read
Crockpot Salsa Chicken + 8 Ways To Use It
One of my favorites ways to save time and the energy of cooking over a campfire, is to use my crockpot while camping.
I know, I know that's more glamping style than actual camping, but when we've been outside playing all day the last thing I want to do is slave over a campfire. Truly.
Which is why I love utilizing my crockpot. We generally camp where there is electricity (we basically need it for the camper), and it doesn't get easier than the "set it and forget it"-ness of a slow cooker.
13 Ways To Cook Hot Dogs Over a Campfire
Healthy or not, hot dogs are an American staple.
You can find them at the ballpark, at fairs, on the backyard grill, and of course on a campsite. It's for good reason too!
For those of you that love history, hot dogs originated in 1871, when Charles Feltman, a German butcher opened the first Coney Island hot dog stand. During his first year in business, he sold 3,684 hot dogs in a bun. That same year, the Columbian Exposition brought thousands of visitors to Chicago who needed fast, filling, and convenient foods - and the hot dog was there to fill that need.
Suffice to say, the idea took off.
Today, hot dogs are still "street food" and in addition to the same convenience factor they had back in 1871, they allow meat companies to use up some of the "spare parts" of animals that are typically less popular."Read
Free Printable Meal Plan: 3 Days of Crockpot Camping
My husband has been WAY into camping since we met.
He's a true outdoorsman: he loves his truck, doesn't feel whole without an ATV, and hunting and fishing are his choice forms of entertainment.
Me, not so much.
During high school, we went on a couple of canoe trips into Canada, which I think may have given him the wrong impression about my feelings on camping. Sure, when you're in high school, spending time with your boyfriend - even if it means not showering for an entire week, and canoeing 200 miles - sounds pretty dang awesome.
You can see how he would think I liked camping.
After we were married, he broached the subject of going camping with friends, and SURPRISE, I wasn't into the idea. I put off going camping until our daughter was born, at which point I realized just how much I wanted our child to spend a lot of time outdoors, and just how frugal a vacation camping could be.
So I changed my stance on camping.
I embraced it, but cooking while camping still terrified me. I wasn't good at grilling - much less over a campfire - and the 3 good grilling recipes I had couldn't sustain us for a long trip.
My solution was to embrace my crock pot, which I realize isn't exactly "embracing camping" but it was a gentle way of getting used to camping, greatly reducing the cooking workload while we were camping, and also enabled me to pack more shelf-stable items, thus reducing the amount of packing and planned needed before a trip.
I don't cook entirely from a crock pot anymore, but if you're just starting out camping, are camping with a new baby, or just need a little simplicity in your next trip, I've got the perfect meal plan for you:
3 Day Camping Crockpot Meal Plan
I've got enough meals lined up here for 3 days and 2 nights of meals, complete with the recipes, shopping list, and a preparation steps checklist that will help you do as much shopping, mixing, and packaging prior to roughing it in the woods.
You will need the following recipes to complete the meal plan:
- Easy Steak Marinade
- Mexican Campfire Street Corn
- Crockpot Hash Brown Casserole
- Barbecue Brisket Sliders with Coleslaw
Print them out to go along with the meal plan, and take them along on your trip so you're prepared with a complete plan. If you really want to simplify, pick up a few extra things like crockpot liners, paper plates, and ziploc bags for mixing the marinade and storing leftovers.
Oh, and make sure you have a good, sturdy cooler too!
I promise, these meals are easy, tasty, and filling. They meet my 3 criteria for camping meals:
- It Must Be Easy: The fewer mixing bowls and utensils required, the better. No sense in lugging along more cooking equipment than is absolutely necessary!
- It Must Be Filling: Camping burns tons of calories! Our meals while we're camping typically contain way more calories than normal meal at home would.
- It Must Be Simple: The fewer ingredient required, the better. Also, the more shelf-stable ingredients in a recipes, the more I like it.
It's printable, it's comprehensive, and it's yours free!

The Easiest, Tastiest Steak Marinade for Camping
If you're doing the cooking on your family's camping trip, then you'll understand why all of my recipes have to meet the following criteria:
- They must be easy
- They must be filling
- They must not have too many ingredients
No an exact science, sure, since simplicity is pretty subjective, but in general easier = better, as long as you don't sacrifice taste.
Steak seems to fit the bill perfectly. It is easy to transport, cook, and there is literally only one ingredient. Plus, steak never disappoints the guys, and most of the time as long as you pack all of the utensils needed, the guys will cook it for you.
But a great steak needs to be marinated, and marinade is always the easiest thing to pack in to a campsite. The best marinades are usually homemade, but the sheer number of spices they include could take too much valuable space away from you.
So I set out to find the simplest marinade - ever - that didn't need to be refrigerated, and that didn't have any fancy ingredients, and we found it in the form of two ingredients you would never expect: cheap beer and barbecue sauce.
I know, barbecue sauce on a good steak is a hanging-worth offense in some geographic regions, but her me out: the cheap beer and the tomato in the barbecue sauce tenderize the meat, and somehow bring out it's natural flavor. Plus, cheap beer is a staple at all of our campsites.
I don't know the science, but it works! And since neither a bottle of barbecue sauce or a can of beer need to be refrigerated, this marinade is about as shelf-stable as it gets. It's as simple as putting the steaks in a plastic ziploc bag, dumping in a can of beer and the bottle of barbecue sauce, then shaking to mix everything up.
Let the steaks sit in the marinade for at least 2 hours, and then grill to your desired doneness.
When my husband first approached me about using beer and barbecue sauce as a marinade, I refused, thinking that something so "low brow" wouldn't taste good, but boy was I wrong! Who knew that 2 so cheap ingredients would taste so good?

A masters is the first level of graduate coursework and can be obtained after you receive a bachelor's degree. Earning a masters usually requires two years of full-time study, which amounts to 36 to 54 semester credits.
A business management program teaches students how to successfully and efficiently manage and supervise others. Important topics such as communication, business administration, and corporate leadership will usually be explored on a regularly basis.
Japan is an island nation in East Asia. Located in the Pacific Ocean, it lies to the east of the Sea of Japan, China, North Korea, South Korea and Russia, stretching from the Sea of Okhotsk in the north to the East China Sea and Taiwan in the south.

Adding Value through Internet, Mobile Communications and Ubiquitous Connectivity – One-Year Master's Degree: Master of E-Business Management
The global business environment has been changing dramatically over the last few years. The impact of this has been a complete transformation of business itself, all kinds of business, and the kind of careers it demands.
E-Business, earlier thought of as just buying and selling using the Internet, has become an undeniable reality with applications for all kinds of businesses from banking to human resource optimization, from manufacturing to sales, from medical fields to logistic management, from environmental monitoring to environmental management, and from transforming education to creating new forms of government administration (e-Government). A bank CEO today, for example, can monitor his bank's performance in real time by implementing technologies based on E-Business. A strategically thinking manager then can use the same infrastructure, or enhance it with compatible technology innovations, to provide a host of services to customers that the bank's competitors never thought of, thus creating completely new revenue streams for the bank. E-Government applications in countries such as Japan, Korea and Singapore are allowing those countries to provide unprecedented services to the general public.... [-]

text: Turning to the segments. Industrial Material sales were $260 million and operating income came in at $42 million, a $10 million increase over Q2 a year ago. The increase in operating income was largely due to higher year-over-year realized pricing of graphite electrodes and needle coke partially offset by lower volumes. Also adding to operating income that quarter was the carryover benefit of lower cost from inventory related to high Q4 2011 production rates and lower cost raw materials purchased last year.It is important to note that the lower cost inventory has largely been utilized and we anticipate that the impact of 2012 raw material increases and higher fixed-cost absorption will be more fully reflected in the second half of the year. In our Engineered Solutions segment, sales came in at $53 million and operating income was $5 million or 9% of sales. As expected our Engineered Solutions segment has returned to profitability this quarter as we continue to see solid demand in our advanced consumer electronics product line. We expect this segment will continue to grow in the second of the year and are targeting a double-digit operating income margin percentage in the fourth quarter of this year. Turning to outlook. Based on IMF projections, the estimate for global GDP growth has been reduced to 3.5% for this year representing the second downward revision to growth estimates this year by the IMF. The IMF highlights in its July report that the global economic recovery has weakened considerably and continues to face significant downside risk. The European economies continue to struggle with massive debt and severe austerity programs, while growth out of emerging economies particularly China, Brazil and India has continued to slow. Uncertainty in the global economies has impacted steel customer sentiment and production rates. Major markets such as the EU are down more than 5%. Since our Q1 earnings release, we've seen economic conditions in virtually every region we serve deteriorate further. Read the rest of this transcript for free on seekingalpha.com

After she finished celebrating the fourth state softball championship of her decorated high school career, Northern shortstop Lindsey Schmeiser had trouble putting into words the magnitude of her team's accomplishments.
"It's one of those things where it's kind of surreal," Schmeiser said. "It's hard to describe because it doesn't even feel like it happened."
Northern's run of state championships moved past impressive and into the realm of the implausible Saturday with the Patriots' 10-0 win over Linganore in the Maryland 3A title game at Robert E. Taylor Stadium at the University of Maryland.
Northern (25-0) became the first softball program in state history to win five consecutive state titles, and its nine total championships tie Northeast for the most ever.
The Patriots have won 53 consecutive games dating from May 2010, and they have outscored their five recent state championship game opponents by a combined score of 35-0.
On Saturday, sophomore pitcher Jess Cummings struck out 15 in a five-hit shutout, and Northern scored six runs in the fourth inning to seal the most recent title without much drama.
"Somebody asked me, 'How do you go about winning five [state championships]?' and I'm like, 'I don't have a clue,' " Northern Coach Robert Earl Radford said. "We took over the program in 2005 and wanted to return to prominence in the state. We set out to do that and it just keeps building."
Northern scored single runs in each of the first two innings Saturday, taking advantage of four Linganore errors as the Lancers (20-4) dealt with early jitters in their first state final appearance.
Schmeiser dealt what Radford called "the death blow" when she knocked in two more runs to open the scoring in Northern's six-run fourth inning with a sharp single to center, and Schmeiser later scored on center fielder Kierstie Schaefer's sacrifice fly.
Catcher Kristina Lozupone knocked in the Patriots' sixth run of the game with a lined double into the left-center field gap, and Carleigh Ruleman capped the big inning with a two-run single to left.
"As soon as they made those early mistakes, we were on a roll," Cummings said. "That's huge because you can play confident knowing you have the lead."
Northern added single runs in the top of the fifth and top of the seventh, but Cummings had been in control throughout, striking out at least two hitters in all but one inning and allowing just two runners past first base all afternoon.
"It's icing on top of the cake," said Schmeiser, a Maryland recruit. "Now I can enjoy my summer."

"I chose UCLA because it's a teaching hospital."
Maria joined UCLA as an OR Tech directly from school. Her primary role is making preparations for surgery – preparing the rooms, the physicians and the patients. With up to 20 procedures a day, her job keeps her busy. These might include eye surgeries, orthopedics, general surgery or gallbladder surgery to name a few. So hers are very full days encompassing a wide range of procedures. But amid all the constant work, there is also constant learning. Which is why Maria chose UCLA.
"The surgeons are great – wonderful doctors and amazing teachers. It's not necessarily their role to teach us, but that's the environment. They are so open to helping you learn more and more," she says. "If I have a question about something, I never hesitate to ask. The continuous learning makes my job great. And their job easier!"
"Because we're a teaching hospital we almost always have a resident in the room. As the attending physician explains things to the resident, you're there and hear everything. You're never just standing there. You're always soaking up knowledge like a sponge. And nothing has built my confidence like knowledge has."
"The physicians I work with go all out for me. I pay them back by going all out for them, and for the patients that we all serve. If that means staying late, that's fine by me, especially in cases where I might know more about a particular patient than the tech who's about to relieve me. So I would rather stay and help and not delay the process because that's what everyone is counting on. And I want them to know they can always count on me."

EVEN the big guns sometimes have to have a bit of humility and admit defeat. Not even endless amounts of dosh can prise stars away from the most stubborn of clubs.
And won't Liverpool fans worldwide be pleased to know that the erstwhile Luis Suarez IS NOT heading to Madrid to play for European champions Real.
The Daily Star is reporting that Carlo Ancelotti has 'given up' in his bid to lure the super striker to the Bernabeu.
But one club's fortune is another's major concern.
Real are still determined to add a new, expensive striker and are closing in on Manchester City's Sergio Aguero.
They apparantly want him so badly that they are prepared to make him one of the highest paid stars at the club. That's some serious money then.
It's a move that would almost certainly bring to an end Karim Benzema's time, and also possibly hasten the departure of a few others like Isco.
The Chelsea hit-list: anybody and everybody
All roads lead to SW6 1HS in this edition of Rumour Mill as Jose Mourinho plans to spend the $90 million windfall from the David Luiz deal on any number of possible recruits.
And raiding the playing list at Atletico Madrid, Chelsea's Champions League conqueror, looks to be high on his agenda.
No sooner had Atletico won La Liga and come within minutes of being crowned European champions, then the squad is now seemingly - and predictably - being picked apart.
And while Chelsea have been named as the most likely suitor for star striker Diego Costa, it's a member of their defensive corps that is attracting all the headlines at the moment.
After moves for Southampton's Luke Shaw and Sevilla's Alberto Moreno stalled, Brazilian Filipe Luis is attracting interest from west London, according to The Guardian.
The left-back has a $35 million buy-out clause in his contract and Chelsea are set to make an offer close to that figure.
Another Atletico star, Tiago, could also be on his way back to Stamford Bridge on a free transfer.
In other news from the EPL's perennial big spenders, Mourinho is hoping to succeed where Manchester United failed - and bring Toni Kroos to England, says The Daily Mail.
And if bringing in Kroos would not be enough, Chelsea have also been linked with a $118m million bid for Juventus star Paul Pogba, reports goal.com.
But even Chelsea can't accept all this booty without releasing a player or two.
Borussia Dortmund have offered Chelsea $27 million for Romelu Lukaku, while Oscar, according to the Metro, could be on his way to parts unknown.
Moneybags PSG are also reportedly confident of luring Eden Hazard to Paris.
Eto'o wants some payback on Mourinho
Samuel Eto'o wants to rub Jose Mourinho's nose in it so badly - and he sees revenge would be best served up in a red shirt.
The Daily Mirror reports that Chelsea reject Eto'o wants to join Arsenal to prove to former manager Mourinho that he still has what it takes to play in the Premier League.
And coming on the back of news that Olivier Giroud is in talks over a contract extension at the Emirates, that's potentially excellent news for the Gunners.
The 33-year-old Cameroon striker, who was released by the Blues upon the expiry of his contract, wants to prolong his stay in England and apparantly sees Arsenal as the ideal landing spot.
Eto'o also has reportedly had lucrative offers from the MLS and also the Middle East.
The other big buzz surrounding Arsenal is the possibility of Cesc Fabregas making a triumphant return.
But any hopes of a reunion may be dashed by Manchester United, with The Express reporting goalkeeper David De Gea urging his Spanish teammate to come to Old Trafford.
"He (Fabregas) is a top player, there are many clubs who want him and are in Barcelona, the club of his life," said De Gea.
"I have spoken to him to go to Manchester, but it will be complicated."
Light at the end of the tunnel for Southampton
After a tumultuous three weeks or so following the end of the EPL season, it's no wonder Southampton are one of the early favourites to be relegated next season.
But despite losing manager Mauricio Pochettino to Tottenham, and the bookmaker pessimism, there is still plenty of confidence down St Mary's way that they can build on their eighth placing.
Saints chairman Ralph Krueger said that the club's search to find a new manager is moving forward at a brisk pace and that there will not be a mass exodus of players.
"We have the highest quality managers in Europe knocking on our door," he said.
"We also have the highest quality available players and their agents knocking on our door. There's a lot of exciting people that want to come here."
One possible managerial candidate could be Oscar Garcia, the former Brighton boss. Scottish giants Celtic are also possibilities for her services.
Other hopefuls include former Basle manager Murat Yakin and Feyenoord boss Ronald Koeman.
On the player front, Adam Lallana continues to attract headlines everywhere, with Spurs, not surprisingly, now entering calculations. Liverpool, though, remain favourites.

It's always more difficult to assess a college football matchup when the two combatants have no, or virtually no, history. There's no point of reference, no real concept of how one team will respond to the strengths and weaknesses of the other.
The only time Notre Dame and N.C. State have squared off on the gridiron was during the 2002 season/the Jan. 1, 2003 Gator Bowl in Jacksonville when the Wolfpack manhandled the Irish, 28-6, behind quarterback Philip Rivers, who had a future NFL receiver – Jerricho Cotchery – to throw to 10 times for 127 yards.
Notre Dame will host N.C. State next year, but won't tangle with the Wolfpack again until 2023 in Raleigh and 2025 in Notre Dame Stadium. T
There may be no more underachieving ACC program than the N.C. State Wolfpack, who have talent but seldom maximize it. Led by one of the more cantankerous personalities in the conference, head coach Dave Doeren, the Wolfpack have played 18 games against Power 5 teams that have finished the season with a winning record.
He's perfect so far. He's lost them all.
It remains to be seen which side of the ledger the Irish will fall upon with a 2-3 record. An Irish loss would certainly increase the likelihood of Notre Dame failing to finish above .500, thus "preventing" Doeren from notching his first win against a winning team.
The Wolfpack will have plenty of other opportunities to defeat a winning program if the Irish can't get to 7-5, although none of them are particularly promising opportunities. After hosting Notre Dame, N.C. State travels to Clemson (5-0) and Louisville (4-1), which lost to the Tigers last weekend in an epic battle.
Wins over win-deprived Boston College on Oct. 29 and/or Syracuse Nov. 12 won't break Doeren's streak. The Wolfpack's other games are at home against Florida State (3-2) and at home against Miami (4-0).
Good luck with that.
Notre Dame, in Carter-Finley Stadium to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the facility's opening, is the Wolfpack's most legitimate chance to break its streak.
N.C. State opened as a three-point underdog, but as of Thursday morning, the Wolfpack were 2½-point favorites. That's a pretty significant swing and one that tells you that the Irish better come prepared to play a solid football game or the recent road woes will continue.
Notre Dame's generic defensive look in the secondary last week against Syracuse worked. It will be much more difficult to take such a basic approach against N.C. State, which has a solid quarterback, a couple of weapons out of the backfield, and some receivers who are putting up significant yards per catch.
Syracuse had quality receivers too. But the Irish were able to keep the football in front of them and succeed due in part to the Orange's lack of a running game to balance the attack.
If you've seen N.C. State play this season, you know what Jaylen Samuels, Stephen Louis and Kelvin Harmon can do to defenses with Ryan Finley throwing them the football. Samuels is a jack-of-all-trades who gets touches from a multitude of pre-snap alignments.
The X factor, along with Samuels, is running back Matthew Dayes. Dayes is a dynamic 5-foot-9, 203-pounder. Injuries cost him a certain 1,000-yard season last year after rushing for at least 100 yards in each of the first four games. He's cracked the 100-yard mark three of four games this season.
As it relates to the passing game, vanilla cannot be the flavor of the day in the Irish secondary.
"We have to be on-body," said Brian Kelly of Notre Dame's pass coverage against N.C. State. "They're a spot-passing team. They're really good at getting into open spaces. They have really good concepts that stress your defense.
"You can't be a vanilla coverage team. You have to show them different looks. They'll just wear you out. You can't get off the field. You can't just line up like ducks or you're going to be on the field all day."
As many as five freshmen could see playing time in the secondary for the Irish – cornerbacks Julian Love, Donte Vaughn and Troy Pride Jr., and safeties Devin Studstill and Jalen Elliott. Sophomore Nicco Fertitta also took 70-plus snaps at safety last weekend. It remains to be seen what role sophomore Nick Coleman plays moving forward.
Notre Dame's offense is dynamic; so is N.C. State's.
…A few things, beginning with N.C. State's defensive coverage against Notre Dame.
Brian Kelly desperately wants a wind-less day in Carter-Finley Stadium because there are yards to be had in the passing game. It's sounding as if Kelly will get his wish as Hurricane Matthew steers north.
Two areas stuck out in the Wolfpack's loss to East Carolina: The success of the Pirates against N.C. State's man coverage and the huge plays on running back wheel routes.
Crossing routes are difficult enough to defend; even more so with Equanimeous St. Brown and C.J. Sanders running them. The Pirates struck with 39- and 25-yard wheel routes to running backs James Summers and Anthony Scott. They are there for the taking if the Irish can create the look.
N.C. State relies upon/believes in their defensive system. They run out of a four-man front with three linebackers and four defensive backs. If they veer from that, it's generally the subtraction a linebacker and the addition a defensive back. They don't blitz a lot. In fact, they fake more blitzes than they actually bring.
Since 2010, dating back to the Tom O'Brien era (speaking of sour personalities, but a better coach than Doeren), the Wolfpack have averaged 32.5 sacks per season compared to Notre Dame's 26.3.
In those six years, the Irish have had more than 30 sacks once compared to N.C. State's five.
They generally haven't needed extra bodies to get to the quarterback. They rush the passer effectively with four down linemen, which theoretically gives them the opportunity to defend the pass with seven defenders.
Because this time of year we live in a world in which strong judgment rolls around every seven days, positive thoughts about Stanford – which hosts Washington State this week and travels to Notre Dame Stadium next week – have diminished since the hide-tanning Washington administered last Friday night.
That was one impressive display by the Huskies, who claimed a 44-6 victory while holding the Cardinal to 29 yards rushing on 30 attempts, due largely to the eight sacks of Stanford quarterbacks Ryan Burns and Keller Chryst.
It would be wise to pump the brakes on this week's perception of Stanford. They're transitioning a bit, obviously, while Chris Petersen has begun at Washington what he mastered at Boise State. The Huskies caught a vulnerable Cardinal squad – which had to open with Kansas State, USC and UCLA – and spanked them.
That doesn't necessarily make Stanford a home-field win for the Irish, who are 1-2 in Notre Dame Stadium this season. It also doesn't make the Cardinal less of a blueprint for what Notre Dame should aspire to be.
Back when Stanford held Notre Dame to 44 yards rushing in the 2010 home tilt with the Cardinal – a one-sided 37-14 Stanford victory – Brian Kelly told Jack Swarbrick that Notre Dame would be like the Cardinal one day.
Since then, Kelly has backed away on several occasions from sounding off on "aspiring to be like Stanford." Notre Dame has always been shy about "being like" someone since they are considered a standard bearer.
But if I had Notre Dame's ear, I would strongly promote emulating the Stanford program from its offensive approach to its defensive scheme to its strength and conditioning program to its recruiting practices to its fifth-year senior decisions, the latter of which Kelly mentioned this week.
With both schools facing similar issues academically, there is a strong correlation between how they must run their programs. There are huge differences: Notre Dame is staunchly conservative and Stanford is not. Notre Dame is in the middle of a deep freeze every November through March whereas northern California is a virtual paradise in comparison.
(Note: I've been to Palo Alto 13 times covering Notre Dame vs. Stanford. Don't recall a bad weather experience…unless it was while leaving the Midwest to head to northern California.)
But in terms of how the two programs must operate under very real academic guidelines and basic football approach, the foundation of the Stanford program – this will be the eighth straight season with at least eight victories, six of which have been a minimum of 11 victories – is Notre Dame's blueprint.
It's a bit astonishing to hear Kelly's comments on a three-man defensive front following the 30-game stint by defensive coordinator Brian VanGorder. Kelly clearly prefers a 3-4 look, which fits Notre Dame because of its difficulty landing true, pass-rushing 4-3 ends.
"I like three-man," Kelly said. "I've always liked the balance of the three-man front…The ability to really get some one-on-one match-ups with those tackles, with hard inside shades…
"We were able to push (Syracuse's) offensive tackles back. That's not necessarily going to be the case each and every week, but having the ability to change up where those guys line up is going to be more effective for us."
Kelly was willing to sacrifice his preferred defense for the more familiar personality when he had to replace Bob Diaco, who took his 3-4 philosophy with him to Connecticut.
If that means "stealing" the principles from Stanford ("emulating" is a more accurate word), do it, including the strength and conditioning model and all that goes with it to keep a team healthier than the Irish have been in November the last three seasons.
As for the fifth-year seniors, Kelly generally has more than he has this year. This year is an anomaly. But if you want more fifth-year seniors, you can't use as many freshmen. This season calls for it; not every season does.
A 4-1 record last week raises the mark to a sure-to-crash 75 percent for the season.
• Over 70 Texas Tech @ Kansas State
• Mississippi State +2½ vs. Auburn
• Michigan State -6 vs. BYU
Season record vs. spread: 12-4
