Driving under the influence of any drug, including marijuana and legal prescriptions, can lead to driving under the influence of drugs charges. It is important to note that while the drug may be legal, driving under the influence of the drug remains illegal. The Colorado Department of Transportation reports that drugged driving, including marijuana-drug driving, is a contributing factor to fatal car accidents in Colorado.]]> As is true of driving under the influence of alcohol, there is also a legal standard of impairment for driving under the influence of drugs. The standard for marijuana impairment in Colorado is five nanograms of active tetrahydrocannabinol per milliliter of whole blood. THC is the active psychoactive component of marijuana.
According to authorities, law enforcement personnel are trained to detect drug and alcohol impairment and some carry the designation of Drug Recognition Experts, which requires special training. Authorities can also require chemical tests for drugs. Individuals that refuse to take required chemical tests face harsh penalties that include the loss of a driver's license for a year; a mandatory ignition interlock device for two years; alcohol education classes; and a persistent drunk driver classification.
While claims have been made related to the ability of authorities to evaluate for drugged driving, there have also been concerns that many authorities are not qualified to do so. As is true of any criminal charges, violations of procedural requirements may present the possibility to challenge the evidence and charges against the accused party. It is important to keep this, and the right to defend against criminal charges, in mind when facing DUID or other criminal charges.

Protective orders commonly restrict the harmful actions of one individual against another and prevent one individual from approaching another. Because an individual may also have a protective order placed against them concerning their children, it is important for those accused of domestic violence to understand protective orders. Protective orders also remove the accused individual from the home and require the accused party to remain a certain distance from the home, workplace and public places commonly frequented by the party awarded the protective order.]]> Consequences for violating a protective order can be serious and lead to additional serious criminal charges in addition to any domestic violence charges the accused party is facing. Other consequences, such as contempt of court consequences, may also be possible. Temporary protective orders typically last for a period of 14 days and can be replaced with a permanent protective order. It is important to understand that if the accused party is convicted of domestic violence, the protective order will remain permanent.
Under certain circumstances, the accused party against whom a restraining order is placed may request that the court dismiss the protective order. Because each circumstance is unique, and consequences can be significant, adequate knowledge of the process and options for criminal defense can be essential when facing domestic violence charges.

Drivers who have been arrested multiple times for DUI in Colorado can potentially anticipate stiff penalties. In addition to possible jail time and fines, administrative penalties can result in the loss of your license and additional frustrations. The consequences of a DUI can have a significant impact on many different aspects of your life.]]> It is important for those facing multiple DUIs to understand that the circumstances of each instance are different and because of this, different options to defend against the charges may be available. One possible option, based on the circumstances, is to challenge the administration or results of a breath, blood or field sobriety test. Addition options include working with law enforcement authorities to achieve a better outcome that potentially reduces the charges or eliminates them altogether.
While Colorado does not currently have a felony DUI law, DUI charges are always serious and potential consequences grow increasingly serious for individuals accused of multiple DUI offenses. The penalties for just the first offense include up to one year in jail; a fine ranging from $600 to $1000; up to 96 required community service hours; license revocation for 9 months; and alcohol education classes. Because of the increasing severity of DUI penalties, those facing DUI charges should promptly address the charges. Anyone facing DUI charges may wish to explore our website for more information on the topic and how to respond to DUI charges.]]>
Overall, 36,995 weapons-related crimes were reported in Colorado in 2010. When considering violent crimes including murder, rape or sexual assault, robbery and aggravated assault, the study found that aggravated assault was the crime most frequently involving a weapon. The study also revealed that a little over one percent of firearms-related crimes involved a murder.]]> While the analysis revealed that most crimes did not involve a weapon, the majority of victims of weapons-related crime in Colorado were white males and the average age of victims was around 30 years old. Most weapons-related crimes occurred in homes which points to domestic violence, according to researchers. Law enforcement authorities reporting on the study noted that the majority of weapons-related crimes are committed by those who should not legally posses a firearm and that a felon found in possession of a gun, who has not used it in a crime, may face a short sentence.
Because of this, weapons-related crimes can result in serious consequences for individuals accused and convicted of them. As is true of any criminal charges, individuals facing weapons-related criminal charges have the right to defend against the charges they are facing and, to that end, a defense strategy can be developed based on the unique circumstances of their charges.

The CSP believes the efforts have led to fewer fatalities and fewer DUI arrests, presumably because fewer intoxicated drivers are on the road due to increased enforcement. Most criminal charges can result in serious penalties. Felony charges in particular carry a possible penalty of a year or greater in prison. DUI charges are also serious charges and can include prison time, fines, community service requirements and license suspension or revocation.]]> Circumstances surrounding DUI allegations may oftentimes be challenged as part of a strong criminal defense approach. It is because of the serious nature of the charges, and potential penalties that individuals accused of a DUI face, that DUI charges should be taken seriously and criminal defense strategies should be explored. A DUI charge can create significant disruption to the daily life, and future life, of an accused individual.
Facing a DUI charge may be alarming, frightening and overwhelming. Because of this, it can be even more important to keep in mind that any individual accused of a crime has a right to defend against criminal charges. Exploring all criminal defense options thoroughly is an important right for individuals accused of a crime to exercise.

Domestic violence can occur between both straight and gay couples and across all ethnicities and economic backgrounds. Domestic violence takes place at any age and men may also be recipients of domestic abuse. It is, therefore, important for both men and women to recognize the signs of abuse. The physical component of domestic abuse is the use of force that endangers or injures an intimate partner which is committed by an intimate partner. Physical assault and battery are crimes which can lead to criminal charges and involve the police.]]> Just as understanding domestic violence is important, understanding domestic violence charges when faced with them is also important. It is important to be able to effectively respond to domestic violence allegations and charges. A variety of criminal defense options may be possible in response to the charges and each defense strategy is based on the circumstances of the situation and the criminal charges the accused party is facing.
Promptly becoming educated about the charges and the criminal defense options that exist is an important initial step for any party facing criminal charges, including for those facing domestic violence charges. Any individual accused of a crime has the right to present a defense against the charges the party is facing which is why understanding the charges, the criminal justice process and options available to accused parties may be essential to avoiding significant potential penalties.

Both felony charges and DUI charges have significant potential to disrupt the life of an accused party in undesirable ways. By definition, felony charges, such as vehicular assault and vehicular homicide can carry severe penalties, including more than a year in prison. DUI charges can also carry serious penalties which can be both criminal and administrative in nature.]]> In an effort to reduce or eliminate criminal charges whenever possible, it is important to develop a strong defense strategy in response to serious charges. Criminal charges are, of course, based on criminal law which is why understanding those laws and the criminal justice system in general can be a benefit to anyone facing criminal allegations. Rights of the accused party can also be helpful to understand and can be used to protect a person facing serious allegations and criminal charges.
Individuals who have sometimes had no prior contact with the criminal justice system can find themselves facing serious charges, including felonies, and the serious penalties that accompany both felony and DUI charges. Knowing how to effectively respond to serious criminal allegations and charges can be critical for those facing them.

Illegal weapons possession charges can be serious and threaten serious consequences and potential penalties. Both federal and state gun laws exist. In Colorado, as under federal law, it is illegal for a person who has been convicted of a felony to own or possess a gun. Some weapons are considered illegal in Colorado and others may be illegal in certain circumstances, such as when the accused individual already has a felony conviction.]]> As is true of any criminal charge, individuals facing weapons charges have the right to prepare a defense to those charges. Defenses may be based on the charge the party is facing, what the party is accused of doing and the facts of the alleged incident. Criminal charges must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt and certain procedures must be followed by police and other authorities to ensure the rights of any individual accused of a crime are protected. If any violation of these important legal principles has occurred, it may be a basis upon which to defend against the criminal charges.
A strong criminal defense strategy can be an important step to mitigate against the consequences presented by a criminal charge. Because of this, understanding the charges, and options available to accused parties in response to the charges, can help with the criminal defense process.

According to the Colorado Department of Transportation (DOT), 23,519 drug and alcohol evaluations were collected by the Colorado Department of Human Services in 2012. Nearly 5 percent, or 1,045, of the evaluations collected involved marijuana. Also according to the Colorado DOT, of the 286 drivers tested for drugs in 2012, 35 had only cannabis in their system.]]> Similar to drunk driving and DUI laws, drugged driving also has an established level of impairment. The established level of impairment for DUID is five nanograms of active tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) per milliliter of blood. THC is the active psychoactive component in marijuana. Certain police officers, called Drug Recognition Experts (DREs), are trained to spot physical signs of drug impairment. DREs may also administer chemical tests for drugs. In Colorado, drivers must consent to a chemical test for impairment or face possible consequences for a failure to do so. Drivers who refuse to consent to a required chemical test will face driver's license revocation for one year, a mandatory ignition interlock device for two years and alcohol education classes.
Consequences for a DUID conviction can include the loss of a driver's license, fines and jail or prison time. Because of the serious nature of the potential penalties and consequences of DUID charges, it is important to explore each possible challenge to the charges, including any alleged evidence which must be properly collected to be used against the accused party. Understanding DUID laws and criminal defense rights is an important step when facing criminal charges.

Under the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), protective orders are recognized in all jurisdictions including state, tribal and territorial; special domestic violence training for law enforcement is provided for; and funding and creation of special domestic violence units in local communities is also provided for. The VAWA applies to intimate partner violence. Intimate partners include spouses, former spouses, parties that share a child in common or parties that live together or have lived together.]]> A significant concern for families is spousal abuse. It is important to understand that domestic violence can include assault, battery, stalking and violations of restraining orders and harassment (including via telephone, text or social media). It is also important to note that when facing criminal charges, an individual facing domestic violence allegations and accusations is also facing potentially serious consequences. Due to this, the preparation of a criminal defense is often the best response when facing domestic violence charges.
Family violence can have a potentially significant impact on the lives of all parties involved. A capable criminal defense may be able to help minimize the impact of criminal charges by challenging various aspects of the case against the accused party.

Penalties for DUI can be serious and unpleasant. For a first DUI offense, the party's driver's license can be revoked for nine months. In addition, the driver can receive a fine ranging from $600 to $1,000, be ordered to attend alcohol education classes and complete up to 96 hours of required community service. Finally, a DUI offender can face up to a year in jail. Additional DUI offenses can carry increased penalties. After multiple DUI offenses, drivers may be required to install ignition interlock devices on their cars. Penalties can also attach for any attempts to start the car after drinking, as the ignition interlock device detects alcohol on the driver's breath.]]> In Colorado, licensed drivers give automatic consent to take a chemical test by breath, blood or urine to measure blood alcohol content. If a driver accused of DUI fails to take the required test, that person's license will be automatically revoked for one year.
Fortunately, there are options to confront and contest DUI charges. Tests that are improperly administered, equipment that is not working properly or test results that are improperly processed may all be challenged as part of a successful criminal defense strategy. In some circumstances, charges may be reduced or eliminated altogether, based on the circumstances.

Domestic violence charges, in some circumstances, can lead to significant consequences and penalties for the accused party. The negative impact of domestic violence charges can extend to a damaged reputation. Jail time is a possible penalty following a domestic violence conviction and domestic violence classes are a possible consequence as well. The ability to obtain housing or educational opportunities, as well as the ability to own a firearm may also all be adversely impacted by domestic violence charges or a conviction for domestic violence.]]> In addition, a temporary restraining order or protective order may be placed against the accused party; a violation of such an order can lead to additional penalties and consequences. Because of this, and the potentially negative impact of a criminal record, it is important that those facing domestic violence charges prepare a criminal defense strategy in response to the charges. A criminal defense strategy may involve a defense to the charges, negotiations with the prosecutor or other strategies that may be able to achieve a reduction or elimination of the charges in some circumstances.
The criminal justice system can be unknown to many people and may also be overwhelming and intimidating at times. By exercising the right to defend against the criminal charges, an accused individual may be able to achieve a better outcome.

A warrant was obtained by police and the home was searched where several firearms were allegedly found. The 24-year old man was arrested and charged with possession of a firearm as a previous offender, illegal discharge of a firearm, prohibited use of weapons and another charge. Weapons discharge and weapons possession charges can be serious and present serious consequences for the party facing weapons charges.]]> As is true of any criminal charges, weapons charges can be challenged based on a variety of considerations. Procedural errors committed by police, or a failure by police to follow the appropriate procedures, can be a reason to challenge criminal charges against the accusSed party. Additionally, witness statements against the accused party may be challenged in a variety of circumstances. A strong criminal defense strategy will include any relevant challenges to the charges the accused party is facing. Because it is the right of every individual accused of a crime, it is important to take advantage of the ability to zealously defend against criminal charges.
A criminal defense strategy can be the right that stands between the accused party and serious consequences and penalties. Properly developing and executing a criminal defense may be able to help reduce or eliminate charges against the accused party.

It is estimated that 10 percent of women are stalked by a partner at some point during their lifetime. In addition, almost half of all men and women report that their partners show psychological aggression at some point during their lifetime. Domestic violence can, of course, have a devastating impact on families. In 2006, there were 14,123 criminal cases for domestic violence in Colorado. This number represents many families and many individuals accused of domestic violence.]]> Domestic violence includes violent acts committed by one family or household member against another. Domestic violence charges can result from different types of domestic violence. The different types of domestic violence include sexual, physical, economic and emotional abuse. Because domestic violence allegations are serious and can lead to damaged reputation, in addition to long-term consequences, it is important to understand what constitutes domestic violence.
The proper response to domestic violence accusations and charges can be important when approaching any delicate domestic violence situation. Domestic violence impacts many individuals which is why a thoughtful understanding of domestic violence can always be beneficial.

Felonies are defined by the place of incarceration, as well as the length of incarceration; felony sentences are typically served in state prisons, whereas misdemeanor sentences are served in a local jail. Additional penalties, such as fines, also are possible following a felony conviction.]]> In general, felonies are considered more serious criminal offenses than misdemeanors. In many jurisdictions, felonies are separated by degree and although felony crimes generally include murder, rape and arson, other crimes also can be felonies, according to the statutes in different states.
Historically, felonies were considered crimes that violated the moral standards of the community, a theory which carries over to some degree today. Generally, crimes are divided into categories based on seriousness. Because felony charges are the most serious of criminal charges and the potential penalties for felony charges are more serious than for other criminal charges, it is important that criminal law and justice procedures are carefully followed in order to preserve the rights of a party who has been accused of a crime.
Whenever criminal charges are involved and a party's freedom is jeopardized, it is important to understand that each accused individual has the right to present a criminal defense to the charges that he or she is facing. It is through a proper understanding of the criminal justice system and criminal defense process that serious criminal charges can most effectively be faced.

Awlam (Arabic: عولم) was a Palestinian village 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) south of Tiberias situated on the slopes of the westward Wadi Awlam.[2]
Awlam is identified as Oulamma, an important town that existed during the Roman era of rule in Palestine. The Crusaders referred to it as Heulem, and it conceded its tithes to the church of Mount Tabor.[2][3]
Awlam was incorporated into the Ottoman Empire in 1517, and by 1596 it was a village of 83 inhabitants under the administration of the nahiya ("subdistrict") of Tiberias, part of the sanjak of Safad. It paid taxes on wheat, barley, goats, and beehives.[4] In the late 19th century, it was described as an agricultural village of 120, built of adobe bricks.[5] The Ottomans built an elementary school in this time period.[2]
The 'Arab al-Muwaylhat Bedouin tribe settled in the village by the time Awlam was a part of the British Mandate of Palestine. The village had a mosque, but its school was closed down. The residents, who numbered 555 in 1931 and 720 in 1945, grew and cultivated grain, figs, grapes, and pomegranates. They drew their drinking and domestic water from six springs.[2]
During the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, Awlam's villagers were ordered to leave on April 6, 1948, by the Arab Higher Committee who feared they might aid "Zionist forces". But the Haganah states that its Golani Brigade entered the village on May 12, and the inhabitants fled upon their arrival. Awlam became the final village in the eastern Lower Galilee emptied of its Arab inhabitants. According to Walid Khalidi, "nothing remains of the village buildings except stone rubble; only a spring that was used by the villagers has been left unchanged".[2]

7 results for "andre dawson"
The meaning of baseball statisticsDavid Schoenfield
In writing about stealth MVP candidates earlier today, I'm reminded of something Bill James wrote 25 years ago. In 1987, Andre Dawson won the National League MVP Award. Playing for the last-place Cubs, Dawson led the league in home runs and RBIs, but...Blog | March 18, 2013
Murphy shunned by voters and statheadsDavid Schoenfield
Jerry Crasnick has a nice story on Dale Murphy and the push his family made for him on his final year on the Hall of Fame ballot. Murphy has no shot at getting elected after receiving just 14.5 percent of the vote a year ago; his family needed to ...Blog | January 03, 2013
The list: Worst MVP winnersDavid Schoenfield
In my earlier post, I wrote about players since 1969 who had terrific all-around seasons but didn't win the MVP Award. As a companion to that piece, let's take a quick look at worst MVP winners. There are many ways to look at this, but the easiest is...Blog | September 28, 2012
Tim Raines still seeks Hall of Fame respectDavid Schoenfield
There are a lot of columns and analysis out there advocating the case for Tim Raines for the Hall of Fame. I probably won't add anything new to the discussion, but let me start here: Player A is Raines. Player B is Tony Gwynn. That final colum...Blog | January 05, 2012
Hall of Fame debates: Spirited, emotionalDavid Schoenfield
There are a lot of misunderstandings about the Hall of Fame and its voting procedures and results, beginning with the little fact that baseball was not, of course, actually invented in Cooperstown, N.Y., in 1839 by a future Civil War general named Ab...Blog | January 02, 2012
Bernie Williams deserves Hall considerationDavid Schoenfield
The new members on this year's Hall of Fame ballot aren't too exciting, although it's shocking to see guys like Brad Radke, Javy Lopez and Bill Mueller have been retired five seasons already. The only player worth discussing as a Hall of Fame cand...Blog | November 30, 2011
Bad MVP winners: Andre DawsonDavid Schoenfield

Skin Problems & Treatments Health Center
In this article
Intertrigo is a fancy name for a rash that shows up between the folds of skin. It is a very common skin rash that can crop up throughout life.
The most common areas affected include larger skin-fold areas such as:

For evidence-based information on diseases, conditions, symptoms, treatment and wellness issues, continue searching this site.

- Armpits
- Beneath the breasts
- Genital area
- Abdomen
Symptoms of Intertrigo
What does intertrigo look like? It may cause:
- Red or reddish-brown rash
- Raw, itchy, or oozing skin
- Foul odor
- Cracked or crusty skin
Intertrigo may appear in any skin folds that rub together and trap moisture. In infants, intertrigo often shows up as diaper rash.
Intertrigo can occur:
- Between toes
- In armpits
- In the inner thighs
- In the groin
- On the underside of your breasts or belly
- In the crease of your neck
- Between the buttocks
If you have any symptoms of intertrigo, be sure to see your doctor. Your doctor can check for the presence of infection as well.
Causes of Intertrigo
Intertrigo is an inflammatory skin condition that can be caused and worsened by many factors. These include:
- Moisture
- Heat
- Lack of air circulation
- Friction between skin folds
Sweat, urine, and feces can contribute to the skin problem.
Intertrigo is often accompanied by an infection caused by:
- Yeast
- Other types of fungus
- Bacteria
You are more likely to get these infections in skin folds because these are areas that are warm and tend to stay moist. This creates a welcome environment for the growth of germs.
Risk Factors for Intertrigo
You are more likely to develop intertrigo if you:
- Are obese
- Have diabetes
- Have a splint, brace, or artificial limb
- Are exposed to high heat and humidity
Other possible risk factors include:
- Incontinence
- Excessive sweating
- Poor hygiene
- Malnutrition
Infants -- with their chubbiness, shorter necks, and flexed posture -- are also at greater risk for intertrigo.
Certain skin diseases such as psoriasis may also prompt the development of intertrigo. So it's a good idea to have a dermatologist check it out.
Prevention and Treatment of Intertigo
If you or your child has intertrigo, your doctor may suggest simply keeping the affected area dry and exposed to the air. You may control oozing with moist compresses of an astringent called Burow's solution. Then air-dry with a hair dryer set on "cool."

"I didn't like [band] in junior high. And then high school came, and I almost love band more than my sports. We are like a family. Maybe more people would go out for band [if there was new uniforms]." Blair Bodermann and other band members spoke passionately to Howard-Winneshiek School Board about band.

Based on the 2009 XR1200, the XR1200X is slightly more sports biased than the sports biased XR1200. Confused? Don't be.

It also comes in a menacing black paint scheme with black exhausts. Engine ...

The Moto Guzzi Nevada 750 is a modest cruiser which is a surprisingly competent all-round bike as well as an effective posing tool. It's one of Guzzi's older generation of bikes and has had very few updates since 1989 but it doesn't matter. It's excellent round town, works over distance with a screen fitted and has a charm the Japanese ...

The Moto Guzzi Daytona was always the pure, no messin' about, Dr John race replica in the range, whether in 1000cc form, or the with the later 1100 motor. Fuelling problems spoil the performance a little bit, but there's a brutal elegance about the Daytona and true collector value.

Do you even know why you started a blog in the first place? The biggest majority of people want to earn lots of money. They want to take that money, quit their job and disappear into the sunset. You might get people who say they want to help people, or maybe a few that say they want their voice to be heard. That's just something cute you say to impress people, but 99% of the population wouldn't keep going with their blog until it was successful if they weren't going to get compensated. It's really hard work.
Once you accept that money is the most important thing you can finally learn how to earn some. You can turn your blog into a money tree that magically transports money into your bank account every month. If you hate the idea of admitting this you can think about it in a different way. When you are making enough to be able to blog full-time you can help more people and share your voice with a bigger audience. Now that we've got that sorted we can look at the best ways to start making money.
Choose wisely
Computer viruses are insidious! I got one simply surfing the internet looking for educational apps for my kids. It costed me time and money to get the virus off my computer and in the end, I lost work. Now, I make sure that I always have strong protection on my computers.
Norton is one of the most established and reliable solutions for protecting your computer from Malware and Viruses.40% Off Norton 360 2013: Antivirus + Internet Protection + 2 GB of Online Storage. Now $53.99 for a limited time.
How many products are available in your niche that you could become an affiliate for? When you look at most niches that number seems to be huge and only grows by the day. Some people then decide to have hundreds of things for sale on their website. They must think they are Amazon or something. Choose only a few products that you care about deeply, because when you care about something deeply people will be more inclined to buy and you'll even make more money.
Work out the ideal price
Before you can start throwing offers at your readers you should really be trying to find out who your ideal reader is. That is the average person who comes to your site and reads everything you write, and it's so you can put a picture of them on your computer monitor so you can look at it when deciding what to sell. Some people will have an ideal reader who is still in school and the price you can charge for something is much less than if your ideal reader is the CEO of his own company.
Start small and crawl up
You might be thinking about offering a product that costs $2000, which is a lot of money for anyone to throw down on someone they don't know. This product could be a 3-day workshop and if you can fill it up you will make great money, so what can you do? First you would have to offer a product for $50 and people would love it. Then you could offer one for $200, and then $500. People will know what type of results they can expect and they will now give you $2000 to come to your workshop.
Different media platforms
Some people don't like to read and will not by a product that involves sitting down for hours reading something. Maybe they're too lazy to read, too busy, or they might just be the kind of people who find the written word hard to take in. You need to find a way to reach those people and that is why you must start offering your products in multiple forms of media. When someone can buy something in video or audio format your sales will go up and so will your bank balance.
Build up a relationship
There are two people standing behind a desk and they are both trying to sell you something. Person A has an amazing product, but you don't have any idea who he is. Person B is your friend and you have known him for a few years. Who are you going to buy from? If you said your friend you would be entirely correct, unless he still owed you $20 and you were mad at him. You need to build up a great relationship with people who come to your site because they will buy from you once they think of you as a friend.

Grand Central Market - Recs?!?!
Going to adventure downtown, 1st time going to the Grand Central Market, any recs or any sugs on what to avoid? :) thank you!
huge fan of the taco's at Tacos Tumbras A Tomas. the seafood tacos at Maria's Fresh Seafood is quite good as well.
re: ipsedixit
Agree w/ Ipsedixit. Avoid eating? But if you do, get the seafood soup at the mariscos place at the far end (from where the parking lot puts you). Maybe this is Maria's (see above)? Anyway, I think it's the only seafood place. The taco-type places there seem to specialize in big piles of bland, soggy Mexican food. I guess if you're homeless and this is your one meal of the day, I could see the appeal, but otherwise, it's not much of a culinary destination.
re: ipsedixit
I absolutely, 100% agree. I can't think of a single place in there isn't easily eclipsed by any one of dozens of places in its category, be it a taco joint, pupuseria, panaderia, etc.. The produce there is horrible. And I would hardly call it a fun or interesting place to walk around.
I like the cabeza and lengua tacos at Tacos Tumbras A Tomas.
Tacos Tumbras a Tomas
317 S Broadway, Los Angeles, CA 90013
i was completely overwhelmed when i went but i wound up getting pupusas. not sure the name, it was towards main, rather than third. they were delish.
The Gorditas at Ana Maria's! My favorite Gorditas anywhere! :DD
My girlfriend and I always get the carnitas taco and the carne asada taco at Roast To GO.
We get the craving and that place has always satisfied. I think we've been going for over 10 years now.
re: sillygoosedown
Agree with all the dissenters. I do not get the hype over Grand central. You can better food at most places and market itself is also ridiculous. Wish we had real central market like Seattle.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention says the number of flu cases in the region have picked up lately, putting an emphasis on how important it is to get your flu shot.
Veterans looking to get a flu shot can stop by the VA Medical Center for one. The VA Medical Center has more than 1,000 flu shots available.
"We want all veterans to get immunized. It's really important, it helps limit the spread of the bug and it's just important and we're happy to do it. It's free and it benefits all the people around them as well," says Rebecca Hewett, a nurse at the VA Medical Center.
Vets just need to provide proof of service to receive the shot at the VA Medical Center. Shots are also available at community-based outpatient clinics in Craig, Glenwood Springs, Montrose, and Moab.

Showing just how far she's come since her first audition on the X Factor, Bleeding Love singer Leona Lewis was rubbing shoulders with the cream of US talent in LA this week.
The 25-year-old was joined at the annual event by fellow songbird Alicia Keys and Hollywood screen star Jamie Foxx as she helped raise money to support families affected by domestic violence.
Also on show-stealing form was former Bond girl and mum-of-one Halle Berry - stunning in a grey cut-away dress.
Big-hearted Leona has been devoting herself to fundraising of late. She's currently lending her support to the plight of The Horse Refuge, too.

Couple's Christmas baby joy
Last updated at 11:44, Saturday, 29 December 2012
Santa brought the perfect Christmas present for Paul Dobinson and Natalie McDowell – a baby daughter Freya.
She arrived at 10.20am on Christmas Day weighing 9lb 8.5oz, the day's only delivery at the West Cumberland Hospital in Whitehaven.
Proud dad Paul, 28, said: "She was due on December 11 so we never expected her to be born on Christmas Day.
"She's the perfect Christmas present.
"We've been in the hospital since three o'clock on Sunday morning.
"Natalie had some pain and they kind of pushed her on.
"It's been a long one. We're just relieved now she's here."
The couple live in Blackburn Street, Workington.
Paul is a printing-plate maker and Natalie, 25, a tax adviser. Freya is their first child.
She was the only Christmas Day delivery at the West Cumberland Hospital.
There was also one Christmas Day arrival at the Cumberland Infirmary in Carlisle, a baby girl born at 5pm.

NEW YORK (MainStreet) Equifax, one of the nation's three major credit bureaus along with Experian and TransUnion, has found a steep rise in the write-off of student loans this year.
Between January and August of 2013, lenders wrote off $13.6 billion in student loan debt--private and federal--a 46% increase from the same period in 2012 and the peak amount at any point during the last eight years, according to Equifax data.
The totals are derived from the number of loans owed by people filing for bankruptcy or whose loans are in the collection process.
Mark Kantrowitz, vice president and publisher of Edvisor's Network, was skeptical of the Equifax data, which he questioned when it was used by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York in student loan research. "I don't trust Equifax data based on prior inaccuracies," he said. "$13.6 billion sounds a bit high." He stated that credit reporting agencies continue to treat some delinquent loans as though they were in default.
Kantrowitz pointed out that most of the default volume will be federal, since 90% of the loans come from the Department of Education.
ECASLA, the Ensuring Continued Access to Student Loans Act, gave the Department of Education new authority to purchase Federal Family Education Loan Program loans, in 2008. FELP was shut down in with the passage of the Health Care Education and Reconciliation Act of 2010.
"My guess is that the lenders will be reporting more improvements in their FELP loans, not deterioration," said Kantrowitz.

Matthew Bourne's Sleeping Beauty, Sadler's Wells Theatre | Dance reviews, news & interviews
Matthew Bourne's Sleeping Beauty, Sadler's Wells Theatre
The third of his Tchaikovsky ballets exposes the choreographer's limits
Above: Christopher Marney as Count Lilac - Bourne's rewrite of the Lilac Fairy
As usual, Bourne offers expert stagecraft and clever ideas. The baby Aurora of the opening is a cute manipulated puppet, crawling around her darkling 1890 palace, getting under the flunkeys' feet. She is much missed when she grows up to be 21 in the next scene, and is played by Hannah Vassallo as a goofy girl whom we first see waggling her legs in the air and showing us her bloomers.
A whole gaggle of references and campy recharacterisations jostle about as Bourne tries to give his rewrite frissons of Dracula and Twilight - Christopher Marney makes a suave Count Lilac but it seems to be intended that we're more interested in Dominic North's "prince" figure, a dull gamekeeper who for obscure reasons gets bitten by Count Lilac and then time-travels around with a neat little pair of wings on his back. One superb scene stands out in the inconsequentiality: where Carabosse (the imposing Ben Bunce) enacts with a masked Aurora the cursed fate lying ahead, and Bourne adds some urgent visionary drive to his pantomimic style of movement to generate a taut mini-thriller.
Nothing much elsewhere is as sexy, probably because there is no scope for gay duets, in which Bourne has always been far more evocative than in boy-girl ones - the Rose Adagio music, where Aurora's romantic readiness should reach ecstatic, awesome heights, just has two dopey youngsters fooling about like kittens playing. Without symbolic coherence, or compelling stage possession, this Aurora is a bit of a nobody.
- Matthew Bourne's Sleeping Beauty is at Sadler's Wells Theatre, London, until 26 January 2013, then tours

Councillor Patterson put forward the proposal after Jeffrey, who has managed the Blues for more than 17 years, announced last month that he was stepping down at the end of the season.
She paid tribute to him for his commitment as a football manager and also a social worker.
However, Sinn Féin councillor Jim McVeigh took exception to Ms Patterson donning the scarf.
"I'm just wondering is it appropriate for a member to be wearing a football scarf in this house. We do have workplace legislation which does prohibit the wearing of football regalia," he commented.
"The member here has a track record, this is the second scarf she has worn."
DUP Deputy Lord Mayor Christopher Stalford told the councillor there was no provision for him to tell members what they can or cannot wear.
But the discussion became heated when Mr McVeigh called for second opinion from the council's legal officer and refused to let the matter rest.
Councillor Stalford told him to "sit down and stop acting like a petulant child" and added that he had turned the meeting into a "circus".
The council Chief Executive, updating Lord Mayor Máirtín Ó Muilleoir, who had stepped out to attend a charity photo opportunity, said that if Councillor McVeigh had an issue of concern he "can raise it at committee where we will get the appropriate legal advice".
The motion was passed to the Strategic Policy and Resources Committee for consideration.
Speaking on Tuesday, Councillor McVeigh acknowledged there was unanimous support for the motion and he wished Blues manager Jeffrey well but he said Ms Patterson's decision to wear the football scarf had "brought the council into disrepute".
He said: "Football is quite divisive in this city. Can you imagine Peter Robinson wearing a Rangers scarf to the assembly? Can you imagine Alex Salmond wearing a Celtic top to the Scottish assembly?
"These are quite divisive issues. The reason our council staff are banned from wearing football tops or scarves is because of those reasons, so why should politicians be exempt from that?"
The Deputy Lord Mayor also commented on Tuesday that the councillor's behaviour had been an "overreaction".
"I think it's actually pathetic that we as a council are getting headlines for all the wrong reasons and it's entirely because Jim McVeigh is entirely incapable of behaving in a civilised fashion during a council meeting," he said.
"I think in the context of Alderman Patterson, I think it's important to note she was not wearing a Linfield scarf throughout the council, when she got up to speak on a motion about Linfield Football Club, which has its headquarters in her council area, an area she has represented for the past 14 years, she put the scarf on."

A British pharmaceutical company hopes to begin selling the world's first marijuana based prescription drug in the U.S. by the end of 2013. GW Pharmaceuticals has asked the Food and Drug Administration to approve the use of Sativex as a treatment for severe cancer pain.
Sativex is a mouth spray that contains a formulation of cannabinoids, marijuana's most active ingredients. Sativex is already approved in Canada, New Zealand and eight European countries for relieving muscle spasms for patients with multiple sclerosis. Canada also allows Sativex to be used for relief of neuropathic pain and advanced cancer pain.
The FDA application seems likely to renew an old debate in the U.S. about marijuana's medicinal value. Sixteen states allow residents to use marijuana legally for medical purposes, but the Drug Enforcement Agency still considers the plant a dangerous drug with no medical value. As recently as last year the DEA rejected a petition to reclassify marijuana as a drug, stating it has "no accepted medical use."
GW Pharmaceuticals began research and development of cannabinoid prescription drugs in 1998. The company's clinical research has been primarily focused on using Sativex to treat multiple sclerosis, cancer pain and neuropathic pain. But GW is now extending its research into new areas such as oncology, diabetes, epilepsy and psychiatric illness.
"There is no evidence to suggest that Sativex produces a 'high' comparable to recreational cannabis," the company says in a statement on its website. "However as with all medicines, there is the potential for Sativex to cause unwanted effects such as dizziness or fatigue when it is first used."
One of the cannabinoids in Sativex is the psychoactive molecule THC, which is responsible for the "buzz" that recreational users experience. The other principal cannabinoid is CBD, which is non-psychoactive. The drug company claims CBD modulates the "high" caused by THC. Paring the two together in a controlled dose administered orally also keeps THC from entering the blood too rapidly. Patients are able to experience pain relief without feeling intoxicated, according to the company.
GW's marijuana plants are grown in greenhouses at a secret location in southern England. For security reasons the company won't disclose the precise location.
Growing conditions in the greenhouses, including temperature, humidity and light, are all controlled by computer. Once cultivated, the cannabinoids are extracted from the marijuana and formulated to make Sativex.

Several display cases holding lottery tickets were stolen from a liquor store in Southgate shopping center during a smash-and-grab burglary early Monday, according to a Fort Wayne police report.
An alarm at Belmont Beverage, 134 E. Pettit Ave., sent officers to the store about 2:30 a.m. They arrived to find the front glass door shattered and a significant amount of lottery tickets missing, the report said.
Police alerted area gas stations to the theft in case someone tried to cash the tickets before they were entered into the lottery system as stolen, the report said.
