War and Christian MilitarismWritten by John Larabell
Laurence M. Vance, Ph.D., writes against current U.S. foreign policy, the warfare state, and the overwhelming support among conservative Christians for American militarism.
Greenwald makes his connection with Edward Snowden sound like a John Grisham thriller, with this difference: The NSA's surveillance state is no fantasy.
While "economics" as a science merely predicts how an economy will function if certain decisions are made, morality ought to be part of the decision-making process.
In his first children's book, based on Frederic Bastiat's The Law, Connor Boyack teaches a pair of precocious twins about the rightful role of government and the law.
Book Review: "International Merger"Written by Eric Egan
"Free trade" agreements are not about trading freely. They are about micromanaging trade and consolidating power over commerce and politics, as Arthur Thompson shows in his new book International Merger by Foreign Entanglements.

Trays on the Countertop: Keeping Things Organized and Close at Hand
Kitchen Gallery
Do you keep a tray near the stove to corral oils, spices, and cooking utensils? We went through our Kitchen Tour archives and found a lot of examples. If you prefer certain groupings of foods or pantry items, adding a tray underneath just makes it that much neater — and helps keep drips and spills from building up on your counter.

Discovered that doing this really kept things in order and easier to clean. You just lift your tray (or move it) and wipe. Easy peasy. I have what I like to call my "baking caddy" in the pantry, so I'm ready to go for all my baking. No hunting around for a set of ingredients. Great when you have kids and get distracted easily. I am now no longer fearful of last minute inspired baking. As for my countertop trays--I use two wooden clementine boxes. Stacked herbs and spices in one; oils, pepper grinder and a cylinder for utensils in the other. Had them for six months. Wasn't sure if they'd stay clean or be sturdy enough, but they're still in good shape and it was quick fix for my out of control counter.
I keep a vintage tray my boyfriend picked up at the thrift store on my counter nestled on a small, otherwise useless, strip of countertop between my oven and refrigerator. I tend to keep my olive oil, sea salt, and pepper grinder there, with a rotating vinegar of choice. I also keep my mortar and pestle and french press very close by :)
I have a basket holding my utensils, oil and S+P, but after looking at these, I think its time for an upgrade!
I currently don't in my kitchen right now due to space but all of my things stay close at hand anyway. I have 3 crocks with utensils in them of different heights/sizes, my olive oil and balsamic vinegar cruets, the garlic jar, and spoon rest all sit on the counter.
Since the back of my stove has a flat surface on its backsplash, i keep the salt cellar and the 2 pepper grinders, and mechanical timer there, along with my splatter shield a vintage aluminum one I've inherited that slips down behind the stove back and rests on its little knob when not in use.
Though I've thought about doing so but I don't think, one, I really need one, and two, nothing totally fits what I have without taking up too much space on my limited sized prep area.
I use trays to hold my collection of Tabasco bottles and other sauces as well as a bottle of my husbands homemade red wine vinegar. Keeps them all together and easy to clean.
Instead of a tray, I use a small Wustoff wooden cutting board. It was a gift with purchase, and it was too small for me to use it for cutting, but looked so nice I love having it out. And since I never used it as intended, it still looks lovely and new! On it, I corral my olive oil, kosher salt, pepper mill, and stevia for my coffee. It sits between the stove and the coffee maker, so it's convenient for both. Counter looks uncluttered and it's easier to keep it all clean, too!
The trays are great, but I'm more interested in the white, raised circle backsplash in the first photo. Any ideas what it is and where it's from?!
I have a smallish white ceramic tray from CB2 on my counter. I keep a white ceramic teapot on it and a little blue sugar bowl. It's funny though, I can't use that tray for actually serving the tea when guests come over, as it's too awkward to carry into the other room. It's more for display than practical use.
I'm kind of obsessed with using trays. They're on the counter in the kitchen and the bathroom to corral things. I have one in the fridge to hold all our bottles and jars (so you can easily pull it out to find the stuff at the back). I have a small stack of them for taking things around the house. Trays are super handy.
I've become very OCD about tucking things into other things. It's especially important for my beloved Krups tea kettle. My husband likes to flood the counters and I'm afraid one of these days I will wake up and find my water kettle fried and in a puddle!
Do a search for "white penny tile" and a lot of options come up. I think I've seen it at my local Home Depot. I love it too!
I'm looking for a caddy to shlep my olive oils and balsamic vinegars to the table as we like to dip bread at dinner. Any suggestions for something reasonably priced, sturdy and not ugly?

ATLANTA (AP) - Major changes are looming for the Atlanta Hawks.
But first, there are the playoffs.
The Hawks face Indiana in an opening-round series that begins Sunday in Indianapolis. But they know the team will likely look a lot different by the time next season rolls around. Only three players are definitely under contract beyond this summer, and coach Larry Drew is in the final year of his deal.
To have any success in the postseason, the team must put aside any thoughts of what's going to happen after that final game.
As 1 of the few players with a long-term future in Atlanta, center Al Horford says it's definitely a concern. But impending free agent Josh Smith says no one is thinking about next season. Not yet anyway.

Cool southwesterly winds are resulting in areas of low cloud over southern Victoria and Tasmania. Cloud associated with a trough is causing convective cloud and isolated thunderstorms along the southern Queensland coast. Middle level cloud with isolated embedded thunderstorms is evident through the interior of Queensland due to an upper level low pressure system. Further north, high level cloud is streaming across the Gulf of Carpentaria to the Coral Sea.
Cloud associated with a strong cold front is approaching the west coast of Western Australia. A cold air mass with showers and thunderstorms is visible behind the front. Generally clear conditions throughout the remainder of the country.

The sound of bells echoed through grief-stricken Newtown, Connecticut, Tuesday. More than 1,000 brightly ornamented bells were hung throughout the town by volunteers.
The bells -- called Ben's Bells -- were flown in from Tucson, Arizona, from an organization founded by Jeannete Mare, a mom who knows the pain of loss all too well. Her son, Ben, suddenly died of a virus when he was almost 3. Mare started the project soon after Ben died. A decade years later, the bells have come to be known nationally as symbols of healing.
Soon after the December massacre in Newtown, people in Connecticut reached out to her asking for Ben's Bells, Mare said.
The group chose January 8 to hang the bells because it is the anniversary of another dark day in history: the Tucson shooting in which six people were killed and Rep. Gabby Giffords was severely wounded. After that tragedy, the bells brought hope and community to so many who were grieving.
"Our town came together in a big way, together to grieve and heal," Mare said. "And when the tragedy in Newtown happened we were just like the entire world was -- incredibly moved and motivated to be able to do something and show our support."
The volunteers gathered to ring bells to commemorate the moment of the Tucson massacre. Then they wrapped up their project.
"We just sort of go out hanging the bells quietly and we leave and the bells work their magic from there," Mare said.
The magic seemed to be working. Before long, people in the town were taking notice.
Each bell has a tag attached. If you find one, you are to pick it up, take it home, and pay it forward with an act of kindness.

Unless you are involved in rescue, you cant understand how delicate the balance between doing everything you can to help animals and knowing your limits is. Hoarders, in every case start out as people who are trying to help animals. In most cases, somewhere something in their brain goes wrong and they loose the ability to say no when they have reached their limit, and before they realize it, the situation has gotten so bad that they are overwhelmed and dont know how to ask for help.

Thank you for writing this. Self righteousness gets a lot of rescuers in trouble in other ways than you describe, too. They castigate hobby breeders (many of whom are involved with rescue for their own breed), and they ridicule trainers and behavior professionals who understand that the adopting public does not want "project dogs" that cost them a lot of heartache, time, and money and who suggest better evaluation processes for shelter/rescue dogs. They don't get that the more you install those behavior protocols, the more happy adopters you get, and the more they recommend shelters and rescue to their friends. Unfortunately, I have heard the flip side, too. I get clients come to me with puppy mill dogs - why? Because the last dog they got from the shelter was a disaster and they thought the best way was to start with a puppy. Unfortunately, they didn't get the education about how to decide who is, and is not, a responsible breeder. Shelters can help with that education - and they should NOT be afraid of a more knowledgeable consumer. That may mean that some dogs are not saved, but it may also mean that a lot of really great dogs will not die while someone spends valuable resources saving the dogs that are so damaged that they cannot go into homes without a lot of remediation. Northern shelters and rescues that are importing dogs from southern states or Puerto Rico should have behavior evaluators on the other end, and if there are none, they should accept the expense and responsibility of training them! They should also monitor the activities of their staff and volunteers so that people don't fall into the trap of doing too much, or hoarding animals that might be better off humanely euthanized than living under the circumstances that befell the dogs in your article.

YES. SPOT ON. WHY the rescue community is so up in arms about Educating the public is beyond me! I have currently had to make the devestating decision to wash out a rescued Collie whom I adopted with the hopes of training to become my Service Dog. He was 5 1/2 years old when rescued and I have never been able to figure him out. There are certain behaviours I have not been able to train out of him (anxiety, mostly) that makes him worthless for the reason I got him. What makes it worse is that I was told he would be great for Service because of his particular breeding (his breeder actually breeds for Service). BECAUSE of this situation I personally will NEVER do rescue again. EVER.
First, don't blame rescue because you didn't do your own research. You have a very specific set of needs and very few dogs in general are going to match them. Even purposefully bred "service dogs" have high levels of washing out. The fault here is not with rescue, it's with you. You didn't take the time to properly evaluate the dog, to really see if this dog was going to be a good match for the high demands you were going to place on it. I understand it's always nice to be able to say "I rescued!" BUT one HAS to take into account exactly what they are looking for in a dog. I've seen plenty of great service dogs come out of the shelter and I've seen plenty of great service dogs come from breeders. It boils down to the individual dog.
One failed rescue should not--and does not--invalidate the entire process.
Submitted by GSD Girl | January 11 2011 | Permalink
I totally understand your dilemma. I rescued a GSD a few years ago that ended up having some health issues that were undiagnosed at the time we got her. Lucky for us, we were able to get her health issues under control. I too, will never rescue again. To successfully be a rescue "person", one has to be, in my opinion, able to say, "No, this dog is not working out for me and/or my family/situation/needs". I have three young children; I don't think I could ever introduce a dog to our family and then return it to the rescue group -- too many broken hearts, including mine! But I do have a friend who is able to do that. She adopted a Belgian Malinois for the specific purpose of protection sport (Schutzhund). The dog was a sweetheart and would have made a great fam. pet, but didn't have the temperment required for Schutzhund. So, as hard as it was, my friend returned her to the rescue group, who eventually re-homed the dog to a great family. Most rescue groups that I know of actually prefer that you return the dog to them if things aren't working out. Are you able to do that?
Good luck to you:))
What does "wash out" mean? It sounds like you should find a no kill shelter for this dog so that it can be someone's pet.

there aren't enough no-kill shelters. Ths is a common misconception out in the general public- that the dog will go to a no-kill shelter, or a farm, or an idyllic life somewhere else. No, the dog will probably be euthanized. Especially as an owner surrender. Or sold to research.
Thank you for such a thoughtful post.
The best way to provide good lives for dogs is to care for dogs and for humans.
Jon Katz sometimes writes about the rescue movement and how so many people work so hard to save animals from bad situations. He asks where are the movements that move heaven and earth to help people.
They are out there too, but it's easier to find meaning in helping animals--they can't do many things for themselves and they don't have many ways to object to our help. People are much harder to deal with.
I think that might be part of why people can get so much meaning from helping dogs.

I myself do not put much stock in anything Jon Katz says.
I read his first dog book. Once his dogs are no longer useful to him, they seem to disappear.
Jon Katz wrote Running to the Mountain in 1990 before he started writing dog books. The picture of Katz that emerges from that book and his subsequent books is that of a very narcissistic man.
He bought a cabin that his family could not afford just His wife did not want to buy it (as a professor, she was the actual bread winner). His wife felt they should use the money to put their daughter through college. Katz bought it anyway. I think they are divorced now.
In Running for the Mountain, Katz describes his two labrador retrievers. He had them euthanized in the early stages of hip dysplasia (one of them was barely symptomatic)--he says that he knew they would not want to suffer through the disease. Have raised 7 dogs now through old age, I can say without equivocation, that dogs, unlike some authors I could name, do not feel sorry for themselves. None of the 7, despite abusive starts in life, took it out on anyone else once they healed from their PTSD symptoms. They kept enjoying life for years longer than the veterinarian said they would. All I had to do was basic medical management, along with making sure every day each dog participated in something they loved to do. I learned canine massage from Michael Fox, DVM's book, Healing Touch for Dogs: The Proven Massage Program. I spent time at least once a week just sitting with my dog, using meditation techniques to calm the chatter in my mind. During that sitting, I just felt with my dog. When I am calm and open, it is amazing how much information gets communicated from dog to human. As a health care professional, animal rescue helped me cope with the inevitable treatment failures that come when one works with high-risk, complex patients. k I worked very hard for my patients, but it was harder to make sure everything came out okay when there were so many things wrong in the first place. Dogs, not having other agendas, always responded to my efforts and gave me the kind of positive feedback and energy that I could then take to the hospital and pass on to my human patients.
What is clear is that he had just gotten a young Border Collie and wanted to spend all his time with the Border Collie. That Border Collie was Orson, whom he later euthanized for aggression.
I would have some respect for Jon Katz if he ever examined his own behavior in a meaningful way. Instead, he whines and expects us all to feel sorry for him. I don't feel sorry for Jon Katz; I feel sorry for his family and his dogs.
As for his criticizing dog rescuers because they are not helping people? What has Jon Katz done for people other than buy a second home with money his wife made to put their daughter through college?

This could not have been more well said. I have traveled the path of trying to rescue as many animals as possible. Thank you for sharing this!

I greatly appreciate your honesty, I too have traveled that road to a lesser degree. I involve myself at a lower level with rescue. I still do some transports and donate to rescue groups, my focus is on helping to support spay and neuter organizations.

We are watching one of our volunteers going through this. It is difficult. She is wound-up so tightly that it seems like no one can get through to her. In the end, I think she has made some really bad decisions about animal adoptions in order to remain a "hero"

Thank you for sharing your story. It made me cry as I went thru a very similar situation. I too, am in recovery....Your story helps me stay that way. I have dogs of my own that need me too :-)

How horribly sad. I also work in rescue and know that it can become overwhelming. Sadly, there are limits in every calling and it usually takes an emotional crisis to understand this. For some unfortunate individuals the understanding never comes and the situation ends in tragedy.
Thank you for writing this story. I am a rescuer and I have had to say no. No because my own animals deserve my time and care. No because my wonderful husband has limits that I must respect. He has been very understanding and kind.
I have been rescuing since I was three years old. It has only been the last 30 years that I have had the space and the time.
Balance is key for a healthy life,many people have not been happy with my decision to make my priority my own rescue dogs, cats, etc..........

Boy did this ever hit home! After dedicating, and totally engulfing my life to rescue work for 10+ years, I too had to leave cold turkey in 2009. I successfully ran on my own the German Shepherd Rescue and Adoption of Central Indiana. The work is relentless and tiring..above all never-ending. There will never be enough of you to go around and there is always someone wanting more. I had no more to give. To be mentally and physically sound again I had to make the choice to walk away. I too could not say no. I rescued over 1000 dogs in my rescue career. Im proud of that. Problem was I did the job so well that there was no need for others to help this breed in the capacity that I was able to handle. I did it to myself because I could not say no...Knowing your limitations and sticking to it is hard. But you have to do it to stay sane and to be fair to the dog that you are attempting to rescue.

I could not agree more with you! She deserves to be punished, made miserable and feel what those poor animals felt. Thank God her child is away from her. This is too sad and she should have gotten help... it is not anyone's fault but her own. Those animals suffered and she should feel their pain!
How timely this article is for me! I just came home from my volunteer dog walking shift at one of our local shelters. Just about every time I work there, I fall in love with a dog and want to bring her/him home. I can totally relate to the urge to want to rescue more dogs. Our two dogs are rescues, and all of our dogs before them were rescues. I wouldn't adopt a dog any other way. They have all been wonderful dogs. But . . . I have to accept that we are a two-dog home. When we had three, it was just too much. It was hard to make sure each one got all the time, care and special attention it needed. When our beloved 12 year old passed away last fall, my husband and I agreed that we would have no more dogs than adults in the house, so, that means two. Everything is so much more calm and manageable. When my heartstrings are being pulled and I am tempted to try to break our agreement, I remind myself that my job as a volunteer is to help the dogs in the shelter get adopted. By helping to socialize them, I'm helping them find good people to love them. Amazing! I'm not the only one out there who would love and take care of these guys!
I think that the most important message missing from this post, and from the comments in most part, is the value of having a solid and balanced organization behind you as a rescuer. Rescuing animals can be highly emotional, and in my experience the vast majority of rescuers are operating from a very strong passion. Combine that passion with the fact that millions of companion animals are euthanized every year, and you can get into trouble quickly. Or slowly.
Even throwing in with a rescue organization cannot guarantee balance and moderation. If you want to do the most good, find a 501(c)3 registered rescue, read their guidelines and principles, and interview the board of directors. If they don't have these things, they might not be balanced, might not be in control, might not be safe. A good and professional rescue organization limits the burden their fosters can take on, and actively tracks and manages their animals, fosters, and volunteers.
Be balanced. Use your heart AND your mind. Understand that you can only rescue so many animals safely. Keep yourself sane so you can rescue as many as is possible and safe.

I don't agree with the post that there aren't enough no-kill shelters. These rescue groups ARE your no-kill shelters. It is irresponsible to think that every animal can be saved (or even should be saved). Sometimes, the most humane thing to do is to euthanize.
I volunteered for our local animal shelter for a few years. I was appalled at the number of volunteers that kept taking dogs/cats home in an effort to "save" them. I was frustrated that the shelter allowed these do-gooders to continually take more and more animals home - knowing that they already had a house full of animals. I was incensed that the shelters pawned off their dogs to various self-described rescue groups without a background check or even a periodic check on the current conditions. Their goals were being met - animals were not being put down which kept the public outcry at bay.
I could no longer volunteer my time at the shelter around these volunteers so I chose to only foster dogs. My motto was "one at a time". To date, I have fostered 18 dogs and kept only one of those fosters. The remaining 17 found good homes. I will continue to foster - but only one at a time; that foster dog deserves my undivided attention.

Does technology make your holiday shopping easier? According to Pricegrabber, 82 percent of people who shop online this year will use an app to save cash on gifts this year. So naturally, we've worked up a list of some must-have apps to help you get the job done.Here are 10 must-have apps for holiday shopping this year:
Gift List App - Apple Start your holiday shopping on the right financial foot by downloading a holiday gift list app. The Gift List App ($1.99) for Apple devices enables you to organize gift ideas, store recipient information and track your budget. Android owners can use the Free Christmas List for similar capabilities. Coupon Sherpa App - Apple and Android Coupon Sherpa was the first-ever mobile coupon app, and features hundreds of digital coupons for popular stores like Kohls and Macy's. As a previous iTunes Staff Favorite and a regular on top-shopping-apps lists, Coupon Sherpa makes it easy to score in-store savings at retailers and restaurants, especially during the holiday season. Simply hand your phone to the cashier and they'll scan the coupon. No clipping required. Decide App - Apple (iPhone and iPad) We've all been there: You carefully plan your purchase to procure the best deal, and a few months later you find your coveted item for much less than you paid. Luckily, Decide.com created an app for iPhones and iPads to help you determine the best time to buy everything from cameras to table saws. RedLaser App - Apple and Android As retailers amp up their price-matching programs this holiday season, the RedLaser barcode scanning app will be especially handy. Target and Best Buy, for example, will price-match online retailers including Amazon, making it easier than ever to score the price you want while completing your in-store purchase. Lookout Mobile Security App - Android Think about all the personal information your mobile device contains, not to mention the apps and websites you use every day. Couple that with the growing trend of mobile commerce, and your device is a hot commodity for hackers. PCMagazine's Editor's Choice for Android is the Lookout Mobile Security App. It's available for free, or for $2.99 per month for enhanced security. OneReceipt App - Apple Like in-laws and baked confections, you'll likely find yourself overrun with receipts this holiday season. Stay organized using the OneReceipt app to digitally store your many proofs of purchase. You can organize e-receipts and online purchase confirmations, as well as snap photos of hard copy receipts to cut down on paper clutter. Slice App - Apple and Android Similar to the OneReceipt app, this one's for the loyal online shopper. The Slice App organizes all of your e-commerce activity and helps you track online orders and expenditures. Available for free on both Apple and Android devices, the app also alerts you about price reductions on desired products. DealBoard App - Apple Are you struggling with daily deal fatigue? If so, look no further than the DealBoard app to reduce your inbox clutter. This handy app aggregates daily deal offers into a single email based on your preferences, eliminating the need for individual subscriptions. Own an Android device? Try the similar Deal Drop app. BuyOrNot App - Apple It's easy to evaluate your shopping options when you're surfing the web, but user reviews and other product evaluations are harder to come by in-store. Enter the BuyOrNot App, a barcode-scanning app with access to a jaw-dropping 45 million product reviews. Car Locator App - Android With crowded malls come crazy parking lots and when you're in a hurry, it's easy to forget where you parked. If you've ever found yourself wandering endlessly in search of your vehicle, consider downloading the Car Locator app for Android or Honk for Apple. These apps not only lead you to your car, they also feature a special timer that alerts you when the parking meter is about to expire so you avoid tickets.

HUDSON Ś The Hudson City Council voted unanimously Tuesday night to deem the former TigerÆs Den Steakhouse as an unsafe building.
City Building Inspector Ray Taylor deemed the building unsafe in November of last year and the council concurred with that assessment.
Taylor pointed out that electrical boxes on the outside of the building are open, siding on the building is ripped away leaving an entrance for animals and pieces of facade and the chimney are decaying.
ōAnytime you have pieces falling onto walkways, youÆre risking something falling on someone,ö Taylor said.
The city will now issue an order to the buildingÆs owner, 327 Beecher LLC, requesting that the building be repaired or demolished in the next 10 days. The owner hasnÆt responded to previous requests from the city to make them aware of any plans for the building. If the owner does not fulfill the requirements of the order, the city will then proceed with legal action to have the building demolished.
Councilman Lee Daugherty expressed some concern with the city taking over the demolition.
ōIt will cost a lot more to tear it down than the building is worth,ö Daugherty said.
City Manager Steve Hartsel said the city can apply for a grant to have the building demolished or the city can pay for the demolition and apply the costs as a lien on the property.
Located at 115 North Church Street, The TigerÆs Den was purchased at a tax auction in 2011 after the previous owner passed away. Earlier that year, the building was damaged in a fire, destroying parts of the inside.
Hartsel said the city has tried on numerous occasions to reach out to the owner of the property for an idea of what plans they have for the it, but has yet to receive a response.
ōNothing has been done there to improve the property and itÆs continuing to deteriorate,ö Hartsel said.


text: The two candidates after the Detroit mayor's job took part their final debate before next week's local elections around Michigan.The debate began at 7 p.m. Tuesday at WXYZ-TV's offices in Southfield.Sheriff Benny Napoleon's strategy went on the attack. "While Mike was sleeping in Livonia, I put on a bullet-proof vest, a 40-caliber glock and I patrolled the streets of this city. While Mike was sleeping in Livonia I was taking care of seniors; I was saving babies and I was protecting the weak while Mike was sleeping in Livonia," Sheriff Benny Napoleon said during his final comments. Despite taking some jabs Mike Duggan appeared relaxed as he touted his success as a turnaround expert. He believes that's the reason why Detroiters fought to get him back on the ballot."When I stumbled I was lifted by the people of Detroit, first with your prayers then with your votes - the 48,000 people who wrote in my name and filled in the circle," Mike Duggan said. Things started to heat up midway through the debate when the panel asked about the role of emergency manager Kevyn Orr, whom both candidates have shared a public disapproval of his placement to run the city. "I'm expecting that the community and the business leaders who are supporting me will go with me to the governor and say, 'Okay, you appointed an emergency manager because you said the city couldn't manage its finances. Well now we've elected a mayor with a strong turnaround history," Duggan said. He continues, "I don't know whether we can get Kevyn Orr out before September, but I'm going to work every day on a positive, constructive way to shorten that stay."The sheriff said: "I've maintained from day one that I believe Kevyn Orr is here illegally. It is very clear that there was a conspiracy, and it's becoming even clearer ... there was never, ever any intention of doing anything but sending Kevyn Orr in working with the governor, working with Andy Dillon, working with Kevyn Orr, and quite frankly, my opponent was a big part of that." The candidates were asked a hypothetical question: What if there was no emergency manager? How would they turn the city around? VIDEO: Click on the video player above to hear more from the candidates, voter responseThe final count showed Duggan with more than 48,700 votes compared to about 28,300 for Napoleon.The general election is Tuesday, Nov. 5.

I came across this new health/weight-loss system called "Le-Vel" which is supposed to help you get healthy in a variety of ways: give you more energy (which me and my wife need with 3 young kids), help you lose weight (who couldn't, right??) and it promotes mental clarity/focus (again, who couldn't use help with that in our busy lives??) better sleep and even pain management!
Here is a rundown video:
(This is NOT an endorsement - just something I'm trying and wanted to keep you up-to-date on!)
The system involves taking 2 pills each morning on an empty stomach, waiting 20 minutes and drinking a shake, then putting one of their "patches" on your skin.
Plus, if you'd like, you might be able to make some money on it.
I'll keep you posted with my progress - my wife and I start next week!

I actually double bag the Hatch peppers after they cool. Putting two to three into a sandwich bag that closes tight, then I put about four to six of those into a freezer zip lock bag. Makes it so easy to take out what I need. I freeze with the charred skin and seed pods intact. They only need to thaw about five minutes or less and that skin comes right off, and I pull on the stem and out come the seed pods, most times.

On Money Monday with Murray Feldman, Hale Walker from Michigan Mutual says there are ways to obtain money with your home.
He came to the Fox 2 Studio to help clarify loan products.
FHA 203K Streamlined Home Improvement Loan:
There is the 203K Standard loan, which helps homeowners complete major renovations, such as the addition of rooms, major landscaping and more.
The streamlined loan is a less well-known, scaled down version of the standard. It's a great solution for homeowners looking to do minor improvements to strengthen home value and comfort- It covers the repair or replacement of roofs, gutters, plumbing, electrical and flooring; minor remodeling of kitchens and bathrooms; painting; home weatherization; purchase and installation of appliances; and more.
Construction loans and their return to the region:
The metro Detroit housing market has been heating up quickly this year, leading to a shortage of available inventory in the region-many buyers are having trouble finding their dream home with such tight inventory. This program allows buyers to take matters into their own hands and build their own dream home - which is a reality for many growing families. The return and increasing popularity of this loan is a sign of our improving local economy and housing market.
VA Home Loans:
US Veterans Affairs guarantees a portion of home loans for veterans, which means private lenders can offer veterans more favorable rates and offers to quickly help them become homeowners
For First Time Homebuyers:
Many folks don't now that mortgage companies offer resources and tools to first time home buyers-since the incentive a few years back. Some are going above and beyond to work with first time home buyers to build a strategy to help them qualify for the loan they want, including creating an action plan to improve their credit score.
Minimum down payment loans-Many first time buyers believe they need to put as much as 20% of a home's purchase price down-this may have been true in the past, but not so anymore-there are many options available that require a minimal down payment, which make it easier on first time buyers.

My weight like to pretend it's a roller coaster... up and down and up and down. About a year and a half ago I was in the final stretch of my goal weight...it was attainable, I could see it! Annnnnnd then I started gaining weight again, mainly because I started exercising less until I wasn't at all and eating like I had a super metabolism or something. Unfortunately it has caught up to me! : ( So for quite some time I've been trying to get back into weight loss heaven but when I don't see instant progress I get totally discouraged and think to heck with it! Well I talked to a Health and Wellness lady here in Hibbing and found this online. Achieving success comes little by little so if your goal is to lose 100 in a week...aint happening. Here are what realistic goals should look like that you set for yourself (and I set for myself!) Hope it helps you and me to keep on chipping away at that nasty fat!
Good, realistic fitness goals look something like this:
- I want to lose 16 pounds in 8-10 weeks.
- I want to decrease my mile time to 8 minutes in six weeks.
- I want to see definition in my arms and thighs
- I want to increase endurance for jogging and cardio work outs
- I want to reduce my waist by 3 inches in 6 weeks.
- I want to refuce how often I eat out

GDC: Magicka: Vietnam expansion announced
Having promised a Magicka surprise at GDC, publisher Paradox Interactive today announced an expansion for Arrowhead's action-RPG named, against all odds, Magicka: Vietnam.
"Have you ever wondered what it would have been like if wizards were allowed to roam the jungles of war-torn Vietnam, attempting to bring peace and stability to the region by casting spells on all opponents?" Paradox asks in the announcement.
You'll get to find out just that this spring, when the expansion is released for download. Pricing has not yet been confirmed.
More than that, though, have you ever wondered what it would be like if The Trashmen's Nam-era song Surfin' Bird was sung in Magicka's nonsense language? Because you can answer that question right now by watching the announcement trailer:

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"From start to finish this was a great experience. I had to call for help twice and the customer service reps were so pleasant and helpful. My order came early, which was fabulous and I loved the weight of the paper, as well as the design that I chose. I am a VERY happy customer."
"Many people commented on this invitation we used for the rehearsal dinner. Service couldn't have been better. Cards were here within a few days. I talked to a customer service rep for help setting up the invitation and got great help."
"The paper made the invite very rich looking. The only complaint I would have is they did not give you any extra envelopes so there was NO room for mistakes!"
"Wedding Paper Divas are so accommodating and easy to work with....The finished product is beautiful and just what I was looking for....Highly recommend them for you upcoming event!"
"What a relief to find the perfect rehearsal dinner invitation for the couple who met on the outside observation deck of the 24 hr grand opening of the new downtown science museum!!"

Cook Spaghetti noodles per package directions, but instead adding the spaghetti to water we are going to use our chicken broth that we cooked the chicken in. Add spaghetti noodles and bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer noodles till tender.
Spray a large casserole dish (9x13 inch) or any large casserole with cooking spray. Add the noodle mixture.
Note: This wonderful dish can be frozen to use at a later time. Just cover the whole unbaked casserole with plastic wrap, then cover with foil twice. Date and freeze. To cook remove from freeze, thaw and proceed with baking instructions.
Then bam there you go!!! a creamy dreamy cheesy dish that everyone will love. Serve with a vegetable, salad and hot rolls. This dish is sure to please.
Cooks Note: If a 9 x 13 inch dish is to big for your family you can prepare (2) 8 x 8 inch size. Serve one for dinner and freeze the second one for a quick meal another night. To freeze assemble casserole.
Then cover the unbaked casserole with plastic wrap, and two layers of foil. Date and place in freezer. To cook, remove casserole from the freezer. Defrost and proceed with baking instructions. Or for a large family just double the recipe ingredients and prepare two 9 x 13 inch baking dishes.
Old Fashioned Cheesy Chicken Spaghetti
5-6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or 1 whole chicken fryer
1 - 12 oz package spaghetti noodles
1 - 16 oz (1 lb) package Velveeta cheese, cubed
1 - 10.5 oz can cream of chicken soup
1 - 14 oz can chicken broth or 2 cups reserved homemade broth
1 - stick margarine (1/2 Cup)
1 - 8 oz package shredded mild or sharp cheddar cheese
1 - small onion, chopped
3-4 celery ribs, chopped
1/4 cup green bell pepper, chopped
Fill a big stock pot with water. Clean and rinse whole fryer or chicken pieces. Add chicken, I like to add a little seasoning salt, pepper and poultry seasoning while the chicken cooks. Wash hands after handling chicken.
Let chicken come to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer chicken until done. Cook whole fryers about 2 hours and chicken breasts or pieces 45-50 minutes. Remove chicken from pot and place on a plate to cool. Drain the broth through a strainer and reserve.
Cook the spaghetti per package directions. Instead of cooking the spaghetti in water, we are going to use the reserved chicken broth.
Add spaghetti and bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer noodles until al dente. While spaghetti noodles are cooking start de boning the chicken (make sure it is cool enough to handle) or break chicken breasts to smaller pieces.
Chop up all the vegetables and set aside. Melt margarine in a small skillet and add the vegetables. Sauté' vegetables until they are tender and translucent in color. When noodles are done drain and set aside.
If you are not using canned chicken broth, reserve 2 cups of the cooked broth. In a large bowl combine Velveeta cheese, chicken broth and cream of chicken soup.
Place in microwave and cook on low for 5-7 minutes or until mixture is smooth and cheese is melted. (You can also use the defrost setting).
To the cheese mixture add cooked vegetables with butter, spaghetti noodles and chicken pieces. Stir to combine.
Spray a 9x 13 inch baking dish with cooking spray and add combined mixture. Top finished casserole with 8oz of shredded cheddar cheese.
Place casserole in a preheated 350 degree oven and bake for about 45 minutes or until cheese is golden brown and casserole is bubbly. Remove from oven let cool and serve.
Crock Pot Version: I recently made this in my crock pot with pretty good results. I sprayed a 8 quart crock pot with non stick spray. I prepared the chicken spaghetti as above, but adding some additional chicken broth. You want the mixture to be a bit soupy so it doesn't dry out while cooking. Set your crock pot on low and cook for 2-3 hours.
