Even though I live in New England, I don't make nearly enough hearty casseroles to combat the chilly weather. I've already bookmarked the Greek-inspired brown rice one; that looks perfect.

I was already planning to make your pesto chicken this weekend, but now I'm even more excited to try it!

I really love casseroles. For some reason when I was a kiddo I thought they were 'gross'... kids ?! Now I love them... I've come up with a few fun ones I posted about on my blog. One with sweet pot, black beans, quinoa & chicken and another with brown rice, sausage and spinach. Both made cheesey w. one cup of pureed cottage cheese.
I really want to try out your broc chicken curry casserole... I'm totally on a curry kick right now!
Happy Friday Kalyn :)

I'm so glad people are liking the casseroles and the new section.

I also love casseroles, but am Lactose intolerant. I also like to watch my weight. How about some recipes with these challenges?
- March 25, 2011 at 11:56 AM
- Kalyn said...
Lidia, will keep an eye out for casserole without cheese, but there are already some options there that would work for you and many more where the cheese could easily be left off the top.

That Baked Chicken Pesto sounds so quick to make and delicious.
- March 25, 2011 at 1:39 PM
- Lydia (The Perfect Pantry) said...
How great to have a new category for cassroles! Most of the ones I make are egg-based casseroles for breakfast or brunch, but I love the idea of using leftover brown rice as the basis of some great vegetarian dishes.
- March 25, 2011 at 2:20 PM
- Kalyn said...
Helene, the Baked Pesto Chicken is about as easy as it gets, and still really tasty.
Lydia, thanks. I always cook as much brown rice as my rice maker will make and keep the extra in the freezer for casseroles!
- March 25, 2011 at 3:24 PM
The Baked Pesto Chicken is easy and so tasty. It's become a nearly weekly meal in my house (my 3 year old even likes it!) I can't wait to try out some of the other casseroles.
- March 25, 2011 at 5:57 PM
- Kalyn said...
Joanna, thanks! Always great to hear that.
- March 25, 2011 at 6:15 PM
- CJ said...
Big fan of casseroles or one pot dishes too. I occasionally do the extra caloric versions, but have trimmed my fat content tremendously, as you have. Now that I have a rice cooker, I can cook up a big batch of rice or quinoa, use my slow cooker to cook beans, add fresh ingredients, fresh herbs and a little high impact flavor ingredients like feta or parmesan and viloa- a lovely, tasty dish.
Kalyn, you always inspire me and I love your recipes. Thank goodness for your blog. Oh, and...more casseroles please. ;o)
- March 25, 2011 at 6:33 PM
- Kalyn said...
CJ, thanks so much! And more casseroles will be coming.

That pesto chicken sounds like one my family would love.
- March 25, 2011 at 8:18 PM

Barbara, I think it's been a hit with everyone who's tried it!
- March 25, 2011 at 8:24 PM

Friday's favorites for sure!

I have a category for casseroles, but now that you mention it, I'm wondering when the last time I actually looked to see what was listed there! You've got some yummy ones here. The make it and freeze it idea does come in handy, doesn't it? Does lasagna count as a casserole? That's what is in my freezer.

- garnergoingson said...
Thanks Kalyn! I really appreciate the "made-over" casseroles from the SouSh Beach philosophy.
We are so busy! Sometimes I just don't have time to grill or prepare meat, fix two vegetables or one and a salad. Casseroles were my busy life go-to until South Beach complicated my meal planning (and helped me lose weight!) Thanks!

Great post, thanks for the recipe round-up! I must also say, your photography is SO GREAT!

I love casseroles. But low carb recipes are hard to find. Also, like you, I don't use canned soups. Printing out recipes now! Thanks for the printable formatting.

I love seeing casserole recipes. It's great to be able to get several meals for myself.
- March 26, 2011 at 6:15 PM
- Justin said...
Nice! My wife makes the best chicken and cheese casserole, but we'll have to give a few of these others a shot.
Especially the turkey one- leftovers are what make Thanksgiving one of my favorite holidays!

They all look delicious!

Thanks for all the nice comments about these casseroles. (I was off on a jaunt with friends yesterday, so most of these comments got posted by iPhone, but it was fun to read them during the day!)

- Queen of Cuisine said...
Hi, Kalyn-
I posted this post on casseroles on my FB business page to send my readers to you- this is a great, great post! I often will pop up a blog post from one of my fellow foodies for my group members. I tell them I'll find the yummy stuff for them so they don't have to!
Thanks for a great bunch of recipes.
- March 27, 2011 at 8:03 AM

Lisa, thanks! Definitely appreciate that.

Nice casserole roundup! That chicken with asparagus one will go perfectly with the asparagus that will be showing up sometime soon.
- March 28, 2011 at 6:18 PM

Thanks Kevin. I'm getting excited for fresh asparagus!

Thanks Jen!
- March 29, 2011 at 7:01 PM
I was so excited to stumble upon your blog today! My husband's doctor has told him he must cut out all bread, potaotes, rice and pasta. Of course I immediately looked up South Beach and came across you. I was so worried about boring side dishes in my future, but I've already printed several yummy looking ones here. Thank you for sharing with all of us!

Jenny, you're so welcome. Glad the blog is helpful for you.

Dreamsoaps, I'm sure you meant to be helpful, but none of these recipes contain canned soup.

I understand that none of the ones you posted contain canned soup, but you talked about not posting others because they DID you canned soup...I thought the link I gave you might help with some additional casseroles you might want to post.
- April 21, 2014 at 4:14 PM
- Kalyn Denny said...
Thanks for bring thoughtful but the "homemade" canned soup has flour which is an ingredient I try to avoid.

October 31, 2013 - Over 1200 students visited Montpelier on field trips in October. Though every field trip to Montpelier is a unique experience, there were a number of classes that particularly stood out this fall.
October 18, 2013 - French middle school delegation, hosted by Buford Middle School in Charlottesville, Virginia, visits Montpelier with film crew in tow.
October 8, 2013 - Not every national monument is closed. Montpelier, home of James Madison, Father of the Constitution, is open. Furloughed federal employees offered complementary admission during the ongoing shutdown.
September 18, 2013 - Montpelier celebrates the 226th anniversary of the U.S Constitution in nation's capitol at the annual "State of the Constitution Lecture: What Americans Really Know," hosted in collaboration with the National Archives.
September 17, 2013 - The Constitution is old—really old. All of the men who spent the summer of 1787 behind closed doors in Philadelphia, debating and drafting, are like Roman demigods- and that is due, with good reason, to a reputation-lifting mythology that endows all of our founding fathers.
August 25, 2013 - The Montpelier Archaeology Department has completed excavations at the quarter for field slaves and has moved to a new surveyed at the mansion. We will be excavating at the area of the Temple Allee....read more!
August 24, 2013 - On August 24, 1814, First Lady Dolley Madison fled the President's House as British troops advanced upon Washington, DC in the War of 1812. Before departing, Dolley made sure that Madison's important papers and a few pieces of silver were secured, as well as one of our great national treasures—Gilbert Stuart's portrait of George Washington.
July 30, 2013 - New Evidence of Field Slave Quarters Contributes to Unprecedented Portrait of Enslaved Life.
July 2, 2013 - Two small paintings with a mysterious past are now on display in the Joe and Marge Grills Gallery at James Madison's Montpelier. Our extensive research project, the Presidential Detective Story, have put together the clues to unpack "The Case of the List and the Landscapes."
July 31, 2013 - This past month has resulted in some exciting finds at the site of the quarter for field slaves. After almost a year of excavating the site to find evidence for structures, we have finally identified two features that provide clues to the location for the homes of the field slaves that worked Madison's farm in the early 19th century.

Music at Spokane Falls is a valued part of our students' academic and artistic experience and a vibrant home to the performing
arts in our community and region. One of the most comprehensive and distinguished two-year music programs in the state of Washington,
Music at SFCC awards two degrees: an Associate of Fine Arts (AFA) in Music, and an Associate of Applied Science (AAS) in Audio Engineering.
With numerous ensembles, an unrivaled breadth of academic and technical courses, and a distinguished faculty invested in the artistic
development and academic success of every student, SFCC is a premiere destination for students of music, whether their goal is to broaden
their musical horizons for personal enrichment or to acquire an extraordinary musical foundation for the continued study of music at a university.
As you cruise our website, check out our faculty bios, degrees, ensembles, courses and facilities. For questions about our programs, do not hesitate
to contact the Music office and schedule a personal appointment with any of our music advisors: (509) 533-3720.
AFA, Music.
The Associate of Fine Arts (AFA) in Music offers a foundation for students
pursuing a four year degree in Music, either a Bachelor of Arts (BA) or Bachelor
of Music (BM). To earn an AFA, students complete 60 credits of Music and 40
credits of General Education Requirements. Courses satisfying General Education
Requirements must include ENGL& 101 (5 credits); MATH& 107 (5 credits); Social
Science (5 credits), Non Lab Science (5 credits); and Lab Science (5 credits).
The additional 15 General Education Requirements credits will be determined
based on your transfer destination and in consultation with an academic adviser
in Music.
With the AFA, students transfer with a minimum of 90 credits to colleges and universities with which SFCC maintains articulation agreements.
University Music Departments may require an audition for admission to Music programs. Through ensemble experience and private applied instruction,
the AFA provides students the opportunity to audition successfully. Students must maintain a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or better.
AAS, Audio Engineering. The
Associate of Applied Science (AAS) in Audio Engineering prepares students
for jobs in digital audio production, analog and digital recording, live sound
engineering, sound design, and as technicians in the broadcast and audio-visual
industries. Areas of study include: computer-based music technology software;
digital and analog recording techniques and procedures; acoustics; microphone
design and placement; signal processing and effects; songwriting, arranging, and
film scoring; live sound reinforcement, location recording, system set-up and
maintenance; music business; basic music theory and piano. Students must
maintain a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or better.

Spokane Falls Community Band performs an extensive repertoire of master works
by composers from the Renaissance to the present. Membership includes college students
and amateur and professional musicians from the Spokane area.
Spokane Falls Community Symphony is comprised of people from all walks of
life who share a common interest in performing major symphonic repertoire. The ensemble,
composed of students, amateurs and professional musicians, performs several concerts
each season.
Chamber Singers is a select ensemble that performs music appropriate for smaller ensembles
across a wide range of styles. This ensemble is intended for students with exceptional vocal and musical ability,
who will self-start and practice regularly on their own. This ensemble performs many times each quarter (as well
as on the quarterly Choral Concert) and tours each year, alternating regional with national/international
destinations. You do not need to be a music major transfer student to audition. You merely need to have the
desire to rehearse and perform high quality music at a high level.
Hear the chamber choir sing the National Anthem (arr. N. Lansing)
College Chorale is open to any interested student who wants to sing in an ensemble. This group
is composed of MEN'S CHOIR (Meistersingers) and WOMEN'S CHOIR (Bella Voce), which rehearse separately but they
meet every Friday to make CHORALE. No prior choral experience is required, but the director needs to hear each
interested student's voice in a mini-audition designed to determine range and voice quality. Both groups and the
combined Chorale perform quarterly at the Choral Concert.
Jazz Ensemble performs classic and contemporary jazz by the world's great
arrangers and also serves as a performance lab for student compositions. This 23-piece
'Big Band' has toured to Hawaii, performed at the famed Montreau and North
Sea jazz Festivals in Europe and received numerous awards at national and regional
festivals. In addition to studio recording projects, the band performs regularly,
often backing major jazz artists in concert.
Jazz Combos provide opportunities to study and perform jazz in a small group
format. Emphasis is on improvisation and ensemble experience in a variety of jazz
styles from bebop and blues to fusion. Combos record in the SFCC studio and perform
throughout the community and at national jazz festivals.
Jazz Singers is a select ensemble that performs vocal jazz both with and without a rhythm
section. Depending upon group size, this class may also include a Vocal Jazz Solo Workshop, which will emphasize
the skills needed to perform a vocal jazz solo. These skills include microphone technique, stage presence,
stylization, improvisation, communication with a rhythm section and reading chord charts and lead sheets. Both
the ensemble and the soloists will perform on the quarterly Choral Concert, and may be asked to perform in other
venues as well.
SFCC World Drumming Ensemble is open to beginning, intermediate and advanced students with no prior
expectation of drumming skills or music reading skills (although some background in both areas is helpful). This ensemble
exposes you to the music cultures outside of the North-American continent, including African, Brazilian, Cuban, Caribbean,
and Afro-Cuban through drumming, singing and/or dancing heritages. Professional dancers often collaborate with this ensemble
to augment the authentic experience of traditional and contemporary world musics. The college provides instruments for
student use and a limited number of instruments may be checked out by enrolled students for practice at home.

Bank's innovation event opens eyes … including its own
Effort to fund startups pays off in publicity, goodwill, market intelligence, and new customers
- |
- Written by Steve Cocheo
- |
- Comments: DISQUS_COMMENTS
Recently, Chris Emmons and some associates had to make a stop at Pika Energy, a local business. The bankers drove up to a home, went around the back, and entered the basement, where a handful of people comprising Pika's executive management and staff were awaiting their $30,000 check.
That's not usually how bankers deliver loan funds. Actually, the check didn't represent loan proceeds. Instead, Emmons, who is the president and CEO of $910 million-assets Gorham Savings Bank, was delivering jumpstart money to the fledgling firm's three founders, all with roots at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Pika, started in 2010 to devise wind turbine technology—practical down to the level of individual homes and mini-grids—had won the bank's first annual "Launchpad" competition.
The bank had opened the competition in January to encourage entrepreneurial efforts that would boost Maine's prospects. Pika's team had earned the award after a tough multi-stage competition that drew nearly 250 entrants, each of whom began by submitting a detailed business plan for what it would do with the top prize and explaining how it would improve the Maine economy. Pika's president and cofounder Ben Polito had lived on an island farm in Maine that was off the grid, during high school, and brought some early experience with wind generation technology there to his startup.
This summer, Pika used its winnings to move production of its Pika Energy T701 Wind Turbine out of the basement and into a 4,300-square-foot manufacturing facility. The firm expected this to enable commercial-level production, enabling it to begin marketing its systems to homeowners this year. "This is an exciting time at Pika as we transition from an R&D operation into a manufacturer of clean distributed-generation systems," says Polito.
Banker Emmons himself is excited about the entrée that the competition provided for Gorham Savings to the state's community of entrepreneurs, innovative small firms, inventors, and startups that he says typically fly beneath the radar of commercial lenders—even community banks.
"There is a whole culture and community that supports these efforts," says Emmons. But often they don't immediately mesh with banks because of their size and lack of bankable cash flow.
"Through Launchpad, we've had the opportunity to get much closer to this community," says Emmons. "It has engaged our bank in a way that many of our employees have grown very excited about." The bank has seen multiple payoffs from an effort that began simply.
Getting Launchpad off the ground
"A breath of fresh banking" is Gorham Savings' marketing motto, and management and the bank's marketing firm were searching for ways to make that attitude concrete among the southern Maine business community. At the same time, Emmons says, there had been much discussion among board members, as well as among members of the Maine Bankers Association, about how banks could do things to positively impact the state's economy.
With tools such as crowdfunding, where strangers invest in product and service ideas through websites like Kickstarter, the management knew that there was interest in funding entrepreneurs. "That kind of idea came up early, and it struck a chord with everyone," says Emmons. The bank tapped government agencies, educational institutions, associations, and private organizations that work with entrepreneurs to frame the program and set rules. Among the criteria for ideas were that they had to lead to added jobs, new products or services, enhanced exports, or cost-saving efficiencies.
The bank's contacts helped convince management that the Launchpad prize had to be real money to attract attention and make it worth the entrepreneurs' time and effort to frame formal business plans for submission.
Launchpad was set up as both a section of the bank's website and as a Facebook page, and was promoted through Twitter as well. Entries were accepted in January and February. Completed entries were screened by a committee of the bank's numerous corporators, who selected seven semi-finalists. In March, a three-judge panel convened a public meeting where each semi-finalist had five minutes to present their proposal. These were videotaped.
The recorded presentations by the three finalists that the judges selected from the seven were posted on Gorham Savings' website. Members of the public were encouraged to visit the site, view the presentations, and vote once for their favorite. The finalists were permitted to promote their entry, encouraging friends, family, and fans to cast a vote for their ideas. Website traffic rocketed up, and around 25,000 votes were cast all told. (You can still view the three five-minute pitches on YouTube.)
"Much of our program was driven by social media," says Emmons. "The activity level far exceeded our expectations." The bank received more than triple the number of entries anticipated. Some came from people with little more than a concept that needed seed money to get going; others came from established firms that had raised some capital, but whose funding remained short of critical mass, or who needed additional equipment or other goods to carry out their plans.
"We saw the full spectrum of need from the entrepreneurial community," says Emmons.
While the winner, Pika, was a high-tech firm, any kind of company or idea was eligible. Indeed, Emmons says that four of the seven finalists' proposals involved Maine food products. One entrant, for instance, had devised an alternative soft drink using Maine honey, while another had devised a snack of natural vegetable chips. Another was developing means of recycling restaurant waste into a soil additive.
"The outreach and goodwill that this generated was tremendous," says Emmons. Already, the bank is looking at a 2014 competition, with some adjustments. One change under consideration is multiple levels of prizes, rather than a single grand award. Another idea being considered is establishing multiple categories of award, ranging from raw ideas requiring a start to firms needing second-stage capital to established companies requiring an injection of funds to bring an idea to its full potential.
Launchpad's longer-term benefits
"Launchpad made us aware that there is an industry waiting to grow, and explode, in Maine," says Emmons. The bank has already begun building on the contacts generated by the competition.
In some cases, the contest put the bank forward to small firms that hadn't considered it before, and "some of them have become customers of the bank," says Emmons.
More broadly, management became aware of the need among this business segment for information and advice. It has reached out to all entrants to offer its bankers, and other experts it will bring in, to serve as speakers or panelists on programs, and even for one-on-one advice. Key topics that the bank has zeroed in on include advice on better structuring of business plans and how to develop effective presentations to potential lenders.
Emmons believes the overall effort has helped to further distinguish Gorham Savings from heavy and varied competition, ranging from local credit unions to branches of major national banks and regional banks.
Launchpad "best symbolizes the bank's mission of understanding the needs of our customers," wrote Chairman Daniel Willett in the bank's annual report, "and building stronger communities."

It was the first day student-athletes could officially confirm their college choices. Letters of intent can be signed until Wednesday, Nov. 21.
Four Kimball High students signed their papers Wednesday afternoon. Kimball athletic director Steve Thornton said it's the first group of Jaguar athletes to commit to NCAA programs, and he expects others to commit when the signing period for football and other sports opens in February.
Three players on West High's softball team signed their letters Wednesday night, after an emotional tribute to the coaches, teammates and parents who kept them motivated through their years on youth and travel teams.
Michaela Loomis
• United States Military Academy, West Point, N.Y.
• Swimming
• Patriot League, NCAA Division I
Michaela Loomis has always had her eye on West Point. Her father, Col. Tom Loomis, is a 1982 graduate of the U.S. Military Academy.
"I've been to West Point a couple times before this, and I've always loved it," she said. "Ever since I was little, I've said that I want to go to college at West Point. It's kind of surreal that it's actually happening."
Her swimming ability got the attention of West Point's coaches. She placed second in the Sac-Joaquin Section's 2012 championship meet, missing first place by three-tenths of a second, and she is also an academic standout at Kimball, carrying a 4.3 GPA.
Her athletic and academic achievements allowed her to forgo the usual Congressional nomination needed to get an appointment at the military academy, but she still had to show leadership experience and submit a personal statement outlining her qualifications.
U.S. Military Academy cadets do not pay tuition, but they make a commitment to serve as officers on active duty in the U.S. Army for at least five years after graduation.
Loomis hasn't decided on a major, but she hopes to pursue studies in the medical field and also minor in engineering.
Anisha Richardson
• Texas Southern University, Houston
• Softball
• Southwestern Athletic Conference, NCAA Division I
Anisha Richardson's path to a college softball scholarship started when she was 4 years old and her father, Lamont Richardson, became her first coach.
She has played with All-American Sports Academy teams and the Runnin' Rebels. Her four years at Kimball High include a starting role as a sophomore on the Jaguars' first varsity softball team in 2011.
She said Kimball coach Joe Hernandez helped her expand her abilities.
"I have always been a first baseman, and he had me play third base," she said. "After playing third base in high school, I started playing that in travel ball, and that's been my position ever since."
Richardson connected with the Texas Southern coaches during a tournament in Tennessee in 2010 and has been in touch with them since. She expects to continue playing infield, and she will study pre-law.
"When I went to visit the school in spring of my junior year, I fell in love with it," she said. "The girls are really nice on the team, and the coaches are personable."
Ariana Hawkins
• University of Virginia, Charlottesville
• Softball
• Atlantic Coast Conference, NCAA Division I
Ariana Hawkins had already made a verbal commitment to the University of Virginia Cavaliers during her junior year.
She has been a standout infielder at Kimball, earning Valley Oak League most valuable player honors in 2012, and with the Grapettes and All-American Sports Academy travel teams.
During her sophomore year, she saw that the Virginia scouts were regulars at all of her games. Her new softball opportunity also puts her at one of the nation's top academic institutions.
"I looked it up and got interested," she said. "This school is actually pretty amazing."
Hawkins will study biology with the goal of becoming a medical examiner after graduation. She plans to continue playing shortstop with the Cavaliers and also expects to be a team leader, as she has been for the Jaguars since Kimball established a varsity program in 2011.
"It's been a great experience, being a part of something that's growing," Hawkins said.
DeVante Baisa
• University of Alaska, Anchorage
• Basketball
• Great Northwest Athletic Conference, NCAA Division II
DeVante Baisa knew his experience with the Kimball Jaguars and club teams, including the Tracy Outlaws, Bay Area Blue Devils and West Valley Basketball Club, would lead him to a college team.
He had checked out colleges in the California State University system, and then he met the University of Alaska Seawolves assistant Coach Cameron Turner at a tournament in Los Angeles this past summer.
"He saw the skill set that I had and was really impressed," Baisa said Wednesday. "He gave me a call later that day, and from there things progressed, and I'm here today signing."
His athletic scholarship also allows him to study computer programming at Anchorage.
"This school is really nice, and they offered a lot for me," Baisa said.
The Jaguar basketball team took a break during practice to attend Wednesday's signing ceremony, which Baisa said is just one example of the encouragement he gets from his team.
"It's good when you're going to college to have support from all of your teammates," he said.
Ashley Tornio
• California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo
• Softball
• Big West Conference, NCAA Division I
Folks at West High's National Letter of Intent signing party on Wednesday traced Ashley Tornio's success on the diamond back to her days as a 6-year-old with the Tracy Express under-8 Lady Bugs.
She was playing travel ball by age 8 and counts the Delta Breeze, Grapettes and All-American Sports Academy among the teams where she perfected her game.
Her growth as a player took hold when she joined the West team as a freshman, starting at shortstop.
"It was definitely challenging," she said. "Being one of two freshmen on varsity it was hard. You had to earn your spot."
Her determination paid off in her pursuit of her college softball team. Cal Poly was always her top choice. She looks forward to living on the Central Coast and saw Cal Poly as the best place to pursue biomedical engineering studies.
"This is the school that I've always wanted to go to," Tornio said. "I've emailed other schools, but this is the one that I did not give up on."
Ciara Ervin
• East Carolina University, Greenville, N.C.
• Softball
• Conference USA, NCAA Division I
Ciara Ervin grew up on the softball diamond, starting at age 4 with the Tracy Express. She built her skills with club teams, including the 10U Mystique, plus the Grapettes and All-American Sports Academy, where her father, Robert Ervin, coaches softball.
She said the East Carolina coaches have tracked her through her travel and high school seasons, including her freshman year at West, when she was a starting outfielder.
"The time they actually contacted me, I found the immediate connection," Ervin said. "As soon as I visited the campus, it was love at first sight. They're exactly everything I wanted them to be. They're outgoing and fun, but then they really play hard and have dedication to the game."
She expects to continue playing outfield when she joins the Pirates, and her scholarship will give her the opportunity to study health and fitness.
Celina Carrisosa
• Portland State University, Portland
• Softball
• Pacific Coast Softball Conference, NCAA Division I
Celina Carrisosa grew up watching her mother and cousins play softball before she joined a Tracy Express 8-and-under team.
"I fell in love with the game the first time I stepped on the field," she said.
She adds that her mother, Cathy Carrisosa, held her to a tough standard as a travel ball coach, which drove "Nugget," as her coaches and teammates know her, to work harder for a starting spot on the 2010 Wolf Pack team as a sophomore infielder.
About a year ago, she was invited to a Portland State Vikings softball camp, where she was one of 100 players looking for a place on the team.
"One night, I was on the phone with the assistant coach, and we were just having a normal conversation, and she said 'We have a spot for you on our 2013 roster,'" Carrisosa said. "It was a shock, definitely, but it was well worth the wait."
Her scholarship also allows her to major in criminal justice and minor in nursing.

There must be some reason why they call the 825ZTX "True". Maybe it's the 825's heavy-gauge steel frame, or the extra-wide 20"self-lubricating running surface. Perhaps it's the powerful 5 HP, brushless, S-drive servo motor that will keep going over the long-run. Maybe it's because the 825 is available at a fraction of the cost of other treadmills on the market. Whatever it is, you'll likely enjoy your time on this 500 lb. capacity machine with long-lasting structural integrity and built-in safety features. But the 825 has its softer side, too, including a touch-sensitive control panel mounted in front of you for your data needs. At 74"L x 30"W x 56"H, the True Treadmill will squeeze into just about any room, office, or personal training studio. These durable features probably explain why the 825 has been a nationwide favorite (manufactured in the heartland of St. Louis, MO) for users and owners.

I really hate the posting system used in most albums but I am not sure if this is the best solution. I put this system in two albums and it is not that much easier than the post system. The straps tend to come out of the thing they are supposed to stay in. The jury is still out on this solution.

Did not work well
Aug 24, 2012 | By Frank
I purchased this product to replace the posts in a photo album. The concept is original but the product did not work well. The adhesive came loose while trying to install the Snapload; the strap would not lock and would not 'snap' into place as described. I finally threw the product away and returned to using the posts.

Hi - I currently have a macro, an 18-55 and a 55-200 lens. I did have a 70-300 but that broke!
I am looking to improve on my zoom lens and also want to be able to do wide angle shots. I have a number of options, but wondered how readers / users covered the range from 10mm up to 300/400mm. I was thinking of getting a 10-20/24 mm wide angle and then a zoom up to 400 so I don't have to carry about a lot of kit. However, I also want to avoid heavy lenses.
Then there is a camera shoulder strap. Has anyone got or tried one of the Black Rapid shoulder straps? And if not, what good shoulder straps do you use?
I know I want a lot (!!) but as this will probably be the last time I buy any new equipment for a while I want to be sure I get it right!
Thanks in advance!

Georgian Rebus Fob "I Hope You Are Well"
Hailing from the heraldic tradition of the Middle Ages is a literary allusion device referred to as a rebus. Pictures are used to express either intended words or syllables which resemble the desired word or name. This form of apparatus (which often had a charming phrase engraved) was used to impress a "signature" or sign into wax to seal a letter or sign a document. Those which have a rebus included are particularly captivating and are quite scarce.
This small Georgian era 9k rose gold fob sports the following rebus carved into a matrix of chalcedony: pictorially is an eye, an anchor, a yew tree, the word "are" in script and a wishing well. This translates into "I hope (or wish) you are well". The pictograph is carved as a mirror image to orient correctly when pressed into wax. For stability the base has been made with a combination of 9k gold and lead or similar heavier metal.
Date: Circa 1840.

McCrory takes from other pots to build North Carolina reserves
RALEIGH (AP) — Gov. Pat McCrory's first budget proposal seeks to set aside nearly $1 billion over the next two years to prepare for unexpected economic downturns, Medicaid shortfalls and natural disasters, as well as to improve neglected state buildings and outdated computer systems.
The new Republican governor said the state wasn't going to be caught flat-footed financially. He also said it would not hide fiscal problems under his watch.
"We have not had enough reserves in our budget," McCrory said in releasing his plan last week. "We're no longer going to play budget tricks, which have been played in the past."
While McCrory could locate reserves thanks to improving tax collections and by declining to propose new signature programs, McCrory's team also used some fiscal maneuvers to help free up more funds.
His budget proposal would intercept more than $275 million from pots of money — many beginning when Democrats led the legislature — earmarked to help tobacco-dependent communities, build parks, dispose of old tires and other purposes. The plan also proposed reducing funds for several non-state economic development agencies by $69 million.
State budget director Art Pope called taking the earmarked funds a budget "restructuring" in which the General Assembly — not boards filled with politically-connected appointees — decide how the funds would be used.
Public dollars will be appropriated "with true transparency for the greatest and highest needs of the state, rather than having tens of millions of dollars going to third-party organizations," Pope told reporters.
The siphoning has many groups and legislators nervous as the General Assembly starts deciding whether to use McCrory's budget as a template for the budget bill it'll create and present to McCrory for his signature by late June. They're worried other state infrastructure needs while be ignored, or that rural areas in the state will lag behind will still struggling with double-digit unemployment rates.
"These dedicated funds go to (fix) those employment problems," said Rep. Mickey Michaux, D-Durham, a former senior budget-writer. "You ought not to be changing the rules in the middle of the stream."
The funding decision is one of many in the $20.6 billion spending plan for next year that has the imprint of Pope, a former state legislator, philanthropist, business executive and North Carolina conservative icon. He's been a critic of legislation that sends state funds directly to outside groups that lack direct legislative oversight.
Legislators from both parties have been known to take some money out of trust funds and special accounts their predecessors created to perform specific purposes to close large state budget shortfalls. The Democrats did it in 2009 and Republicans followed in 2011.
But McCrory's budget proposal takes diverting funds to a new level by intercepting all the money heading to several large trust funds and raking them into the state's pool of expected revenues to run government through mid-2015.
The plan would take the $65 million a year the Golden LEAF Foundation is supposed to receive through the national tobacco settlement involving cigarette companies in the late 1990s and to manage. The private foundation, chartered in 1999, has spent $500 million over its life by making more than 1,100 grants designed to help small towns and regions hurt by the tobacco industry's decline.
The foundation would still keep its fund balance of $730 million, but taking away the annual payment would hurt its ability to offer grants in economically depressed areas, executive director Dan Gerlach said.
"In an era that everybody's worried about jobs and economic development, we are a resource," Gerlach said.
