Hooked - (Stacia Naquin)
Updated: 10/11/2013 - I'm SO CLOSE to being able to do a pull-up. So my trainer introduced something new into my training.
The government is warning doctors and hospitals not to use any product from the specialty pharmacy that made the steroid suspected in a meningitis outbreak.
An official with the Food and Drug Administration said tests found contamination in a sealed vial of the steroid at the New England Compounding Center in Massachusetts. Tests are under way to determine if it is the same fungus blamed in the outbreak.
Federal officials on Thursday also updated the number of cases in the outbreak. Five people have died and 30 people in six states are ill. All received steroid shots for back pain.
The pharmacy issued a recall last week and has shut down operations. The steroid was sent to 75 facilities in 23 states.

Illicit bishop in China ordains priests in Leshan
Two episcopal ordinations, one without papal approval, scheduled for this week have been postponed, say Church sources. But the ordination of four new priests by an illicit bishop has gone ahead in southwestern Leshan diocese.
Bishop Paul Lei Shiyin of Leshan ordained the four new priests today, the first anniversary of his own ordination which was conducted without a papal mandate and resulted in his automatic excommunication.
The ceremony also fell on the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul, one of the most important feast days of the Catholic Church which venerates the martyrdom in Rome of the two great apostles.
According to local Church sources, five deacons were supposed to be ordained in Leshan but one refused to receive ordination from the excommunicated bishop.
The other four deacons agreed to be ordained after the diocese allegedly promised them a car and money worth an estimated 150,000 yuan (US$23,600), the sources said.
Elsewhere, episcopal ordinations in Harbin and Shanghai, which were scheduled to take place this week, have been postponed.
Both bishop candidates, Fathers Joseph Yue Fusheng and Thaddeus Ma Daqin, belong to the government-sanctioned "open" Church community and hold posts in the local and national Catholic Patriotic Associations.
The reasons for the postponements are not clear to most Catholics in the two dioceses, but sources said the ordinations will go ahead no later than mid-July. [More]

Just how 'public' is Public Art? How much influence do you have over what lands up where you live? What do everyday people really like? The Big Art Project asks all the big questions about Public Art.
Claire Watson's City at Night (Photo: Dave King)
New BIG 4 revealed
26 November 2012 sees the unveiling of City at Night, the latest commission for the BIG 4, Channel 4's on going public art project outside the headquarters on Horseferry Road, London.
City at Night was designed by Claire Watson, an Art Director at 4Creative, Channel 4's in-house ad agency. The design celebrates the release of Raymond Briggs' new Snowman film, The Snowman and the Snowdog, and transforms the Big 4 into a giant aerial illustration of London at night, by cladding the structure in enlarged panels featuring hand drawn illustrations used to create the animation for the film.
The focal point of the installation is a 3D model of the main characters in the film, the Snowman, Boy and newly introduced character, the Snowdog. Supersized, sitting centre and elevated in front of the Big 4, the three friends appear to be flying over the city in a secret night time flight.
Claire wanted this new iteration of the Big 4, to be a celebration of winter, a celebration of London and a tribute to these iconic and loveable characters and to the new rendition of a children's classic loved the world over.

SanTan Brewing Co.
Online Reservations
We love San Tan for everything! Lunch specials are always a treat, and regular menu items are all noteworthy. We have NEVER been dissatisfied with anything ordered!
The beers are excellent .. Will go back there again if I return to Arizona..
We're new to AZ. Our friends in Chandler suggested meeting at San Tan Brewing. We were pleased to find that they accept reservations and we easily got one for 7pm. We were seated within a few minutes of our arrival. My only complaint is that they seated us right next to the kitchen area so there was a lot of foot traffic. But the waitress did a great job and the food and drink were good. We will return.
Great local brewery which just happens to have excellent food!
Noisy but fun, the San Tan Brewing Company was the perfect place to take our 23-year old and his buddies. They loved the beer choices and the food was good and plentiful. There were many televisions with every sporting event that was happening being shown. The service was friends and efficient. We would definitely go back.
Great place for visitors for a unique experience, happening atmosphere, with great food and drink.
My first time visiting SanTan Brewery was for a work event i set up for business partners from out of town. The food was amazing, the beer was great, and the service was legit. I went back the following sunday for Mother's Day with my whole family and had another great experience. I was in and out in 45 minutes with a full belly and an impressed family. It was a win for me and a win for the people I brought, as they have visit the establishment since.
We were looking for a place to kill some time before a late night flight and wanted a place with a good beer selection. We were not disappointed. The scene was nice, the service was fantatic and we were able to relax and unwind prior to our flight. Wish we would have had more time to stay!
Food is good, with nice daily specials. And to go with the food is great beer. Great place on quoted days . I make it a point to go everytime I am in chandler,
San Tan was great. Food was really tasty. Started with like cilantro hummus and then chicken street tacos. The chicken was well seasoned and plentiful. Got a local beer and it commie tee the food very well. It was a Tuesday night and every table was full. Very casual scene, loud and energetic so was a nice departure from the stuffy corporate dinners my staff expect when traveling. Downtown Chandler is pretty cool, I will go back.
It is noisy and busy during the dinner hour and is a popular spot for dinner and beer right in the middle of the historic downtown Chandler, next to the San Marcos hotel. You have to book well in advance for a dinner reservation on the weekend. It is certainly the atmosphere of a sports bar with the added benefit of the brewery's excellent beers. We got a flight of seven which were a generous 4 oz each that we shared. The food was very tasty and very good, far better that a typical sports bar, almost gourmet. Service was friendly and just right - not too much or too little. We enjoyed taking a stroll around the couple blocks of downtown after dinner before driving home. We'll be back.
Their food and beer are always top notch and they provide excellent service. We love it here and reccomend it to everyone!!
We had Father's Day lunch at the San Tan Brewery and thoroughly enjoyed it. The place was packed but with our reservations we were able to be seated right away. The servers were a little overwhelmed with the crowd, but we never felt neglected or failed to receive drink refills. Although we went for the beer selection (which was great), the food was amazing - try the stuffed bacon cheeseburger!
Celebrated Fathers' Day with first visit to San Tan. Very busy time with wait at the door. Our table was waiting with our open table reservation. Fun atmosphere with families and groups enjoying the late afternoon celebrating Fathers' Day. Large contingent of staff in the restuarant visible, and frequent checks to take care of our needs. Tried the sampler of steak, shrimp and ribs on special. Food was excellent with a bit of southwest flavor/spice in the ribs/sauce and fantastic flavor in the steak. Table ordered Bangers and Mash as well and would certainly recommend as well. Of course, then there is the beer, which had options for everyone's taste. We'll definitely be back!
We loved the meal and how wonderful the service was. My husband got to finish watching golf and then the NBA game.
The grilled cheese sandwich was amazing. We were there on Father's day so you guys were really busy, our service was just okay but everything else was really goode.
The food was fantastic, and the service excellent. It was Father's Day, and the restaurant was very busy. Our server was friendly, speedy, and efficient. The food was delivered at the right temperature by another server, which demonstrated to me a good team effort to make sure we had a great time. And I now have a new favorite beer, their Gordo Stout. My only complaint is the restaurant is loud, and conversation is difficult.
We go here for the brew pub and selection of beers. Food is good but typical bar food. Service has always been great.
San Tan is a popular place and getting a table sometimes requires a wait time. But, booking a table online completely smoothed out the experience, we were able to walk in, go right to our prepared table, and get settled immediately. It worked very well.
Absolutely the best brewery in Arizona. Good food, great beer, in an interesting historical building. They offer free samples of their beers and I would encourage you to try a few.
This was my first time visiting Santan Brewing Co. And I will definitely return. I am always looking for local places to take my out of town guests and SBC is now at the top of my list. The food and beverages were delicious; the service was outstanding; the prices were very reasonable.
This place was a great spot for my coworkers 21st birthday. It had great Happy Hour beer specials and the perfect atmosphere. Our waitress was super fun and even sang to the birthday boy! Only downside was they do not really do anything fun for birthdays, just a gift card for your next visit.
Can't believe we've never tried San tan ...great restaurant, fantastic service from Lindsey, awesome beers and HUGE gluten free menu including burgers, pizza tacos and more. Best gluten free selection we've seen. Youve got to try this place.
Came in around 9-10 for some food and a beer.. had some of the best pizza, the magherita pizza with a cider. Great food and friendly atmosphere. .
I was in on Saturday aug 24th with my mom & stepdad in the table in the back corner. We had a 1:00 reservation. I have to say I was in the restaurant business for over 10 years and now work at a call center. Our server was by far one of the best I've ever had. I could tell she was pretty busy and yet she handled our table with grace and professionalism. She made great recommendations and made me and my family feel special and that along with the delicious food made it one of the best dining experiences I have had here iin the valley. We will definitely be back because of her! I'm only sorry that I do not remember her name.
Visiting from Chicago for the weekend and I must say that this place is simply awesome! The burgers are creative and yummy! Make sure you make a reservation this place gets pretty packed full of patrons. The Thai Curry soup is Delicious!
This was my first brunch here, I've never had a bad meal and brunch didn't let me down. I love coming here!!!
Great food, outstanding service, and incredible brews. This place is awesome. Went there for an anniversary lunch with my wife, had awesome food, watched football, and enjoyed the house made Devils Ale. Sublime,
The service was very fast and friendly. Great food and drink oprions. Very nice atmosphere. Love how inside is open to outside. Feels like one big patio!
The San Tan Brewing Company makes a great variety of beers, and you can see parts of the brewing and canning operation in action. The food is better than standard pub fare with a heavy Southwest influence menu. I keep coming back for loaded nachos and Devil's Ale
Many go for the beer, but don't skip the food! Shrimp and grits, buttermilk fried chicken, and the pork enchiladas were all very good. This was my first time going to SanTan in several months, but without a doubt, I will NOT allow as much time to lapse before my next visit!
Food is really good and fresh, san Tan has the best craft beer in the valley. Great for dates, especially on Monday nights where the bar turns into a "movie theatre". Light down, beers up and a movie playing through out the place. I've been coming here for years and never get tired of the place
We had an early Sunday dinner with a group. It's definitely a Sunday football scene.

This Train Is Bound For "?"
When yet I was still a baby, my mother pulled me from her breast.
She handed me to the conductor. Who said, "I'll take care of the rest."
I remember the words of my mother, "It is your life baby do your best."
The conductor smiled and said, "I can look at this one he will pass the test."
He then told my mother, "Get on with your life, you have other stops to make.
This one you have given for me to take."
I waited quietly and soon from the station my train pulled out.
With the sudden jerk and moan it caused me to begin to pout.
The conductor shouted,
"Hush it only takes a while to learn to do without!"
At the beginning, the old train moved very slow.
Occasionally, I would hear the whistle blow.
The powerful engine had many cars in tow.
Time passed, and I was crawling to and fro.
I didn't know it at the time but the train of life starts with many cars in tow.
However, with the passing of years one by one, it loses its tow.
As a boy for the very first time I saw it snow.
Still the massive train was under such a duress it had to strain to move even slow.
I ask the conductor, "Why do we have to move at such a snail pace, always going so slow."
He smiled, "My boy a life time is a massive tow.
Fear not though soon we will be moving faster."
As always, he was right, and soon time had become my master.
As a middle-age man I peered out the windows to see where I cast my seed.
I sighed and thought, "I should have pulled more weed.
Then as an old man I cried out to the conductor, "Can't you slow this damnation speed."
He ignores me and announces in a loud voice, "Final stop just a head"
With a moan, I shouted, "What do you mean final stop just ahead?"
"It's the end my friend, right around the next bend."
He looked at me, "Now, now don't you pout!
After all you choose this route."
As we rounded the next curve I once again peered out the window to find all the cars other than mine had vanished. Over the years, they had one by one dropped off.
I turned to speak to the conductor my life-long companion. To my amazement, he was no longer about.
At last, it was only me to face this final bout.
Then the train passed into a dark tunnel.
Out the window I squinted my eyes attempting to look my best.
Suddenly, there was a light I had passed the test.

I haven't heard the C710 in a long time. The V3 isn't extremely spacious but it's really nice and versatile with good depth and layering. I don't think you'll be disappointed
Not that I've heard. I would think the ER4 is pretty safe - not enough room in there for a dynamic driver, which is what every counterfeit I know of has used.
CW31 has less bass for sure. Also not a trebly/fatiguing sound at all.
No set plans at this time but I may get my hands on an 8.A eventually.
What didn't you like about the fit of the A161P? It's one of the more comfortable deep-insertion earphones I've used. If that deep of a seal didn't work for you, the HF5 probably won't either. In that case I'd try something with a shallower fit, like the GR06 or Rock-It R-30.
Couldn't get a good over the ear fit with the A161Ps. I also sometimes like to lay on my side when I'm listening and the shell fo the A161P is a little large. Worried that a deep insertion tip may not be for me anyway. GR06 keeps coming up as a possibility but I did a lot of reading about Phonak 021/022s last night. Very interesting especially with the filters that change the sound signature. Might be a good starter for me so I can experiment and discover what signature I'm most comfortable with.
Besides relax time, I listen for hours at work, so comfort, isolation and build quality are important.

A Buffalo Public School employee and her husband have been chosen by NASA's Johnson Space Center among 30 @NASA Twitter followers to test their skills at space shuttle ascent, rendezvous or landing aboard the same simulator astronauts use to train for their missions.
On Tuesday, July 19, during space shuttle Atlantis' STS-135 mission to the International Space Station, City Honors School's International Baccalaureate Diploma Program Coordinator Elissa M. Banas, Esq. will get a behind-the-scenes tour at Johnson Space Center in Houston, and a hands-on opportunity aboard the space shuttle simulator to take control in a training scenario.
Ms. Banas is the type of person who constantly encourages students to dream and live large. And on the basis of one little Tweet, not only is Banas going to live out a dream, but true to form, her next thought was, "I'll have some great information to share with our science students."
Ms. Banas' husband Bill was picked to participate as well. Bill works at Moog, a NASA subcontractor. The one-time recipient of a Graduate Fellowship with NASA Goddard, Bill is also "all but dissertation" on his Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering. It's easy to understand why the Banases are followers of NASA on Twitter.
Ms. Banas says they have enough frequent flier miles for both to fly to Houston. While there, they'll keep everyone posted through Twitter. "My twitter is @elissabflo and [Bill's] is @buffalobill1. I'll probably be tweeting for non-science people, and Bill will tweet the technical stuff."
And both are very grateful to be chosen. "To be a part of the history of this final mission is just incredibly exciting. This is the first time civilians are being given access to the shuttle simulator at Johnson Space Center. We'll also be meeting with the flight director of the current mission, STS-135, as well as astronauts," Banas says.
And there's history. Both Elissa and Bill were fortunate enough to see two space shuttle launches from the press center at KSC (just three miles away), back in 1998 (STS-90) and 2002 (STS-109). At the time, Ms. Banas reported on the STS-90 mission for local and national publications.
The Tweetup, as it's being called, will also include a "meet and greet" session to allow participants to mingle with fellow Tweeps and the staff behind the tweets on @NASA and @NASA_Johnson.
