BEAUFORT � A Carteret County woman will make a first appearance in court Wednesday on charges that she fraudulently obtained prescriptions while working at a Carteret County medical practice.
BEAUFORT � A Carteret County woman will make a first appearance in court Wednesday on charges that she fraudulently obtained prescriptions while working at a Carteret County medical practice.
Brittney Kate Piner, 29, of Beaufort, was arrested Friday by the Beaufort Police Department and charged with 18 counts of obtaining a controlled substance by fraud, 21 counts obtaining a controlled substance by false pretense and 17 counts of trafficking opium.
According to the news release issued by the police department, Piner is accused of prescription drug fraud while working as a medical assistant at Seaside Family Practice at 407 Live Oak St. in Beaufort.
An investigation began after Officer Ian Cooper responded to Seaside Family Practice after staff reported that they had received a telephone call from the pharmacy at Walmart wanting verification that they had written prescriptions for Piner.
The staff said they had not written any prescriptions for her and advised the pharmacy that Piner was an employee at the practice. Walmart pharmacy indicated that Piner had filled a prescription 20 times.
According to police, Piner used medical identification numbers of two nurse practitioners at the practice to obtain prescriptions.
Further investigation revealed that Piner had prescriptions filled at numerous other pharmacies in Carteret and Craven counties.
Investigators also found that Piner had called in weekly for hydrocodone and alprazolam of varying amounts over the past year, totaling more than 2,500 dosage units, the release said.
On Dec. 28, Beaufort officers, with assistance from the Carteret County Sheriff�s Office, served Oiner with arrest warrants at her home. At the time of her arrest, Piner turned over approximately 120 units of hydrocodone and alprazolam that she had in a makeup bag, police said.
She was placed in the Carteret County Jail under a $750,000 bond.
Lt. Anthony Ginther, Detective Eric Sassano, and deputies Keith Brewer and Wayne Lawrence assisted in the investigation.

When I think about all the people whose personal example, words, writings, paintings, poems, and music have influenced me as a Christian, the life and music of Rich Mullins ranks towards the top of my list. He is a charter member of my community of the heart. His song Elijah is a good representative sample as to why this is.
"There's people been talking
They say they're worried about my soul
Well, I'm here to tell you I'll keep rocking
'Til I'm sure it's my time to roll
And when I do"
I am now and always will be a ragamuffin. Rich died in a horrific car crash in September 1997. He is still missed, but his unique legacy of faith in late (post?) modern America as expressed in his music lives on in the hearts, minds, iPods, tape decks, and computers of many. When I hear him now it is incredible to think he has been gone for 13 years.

"Released independently a year ago, the album—she recorded in her brother's home studio with just a couple of guitars because &slquo;I wanted it to be as intimate as a living room performance and we didn't have much money&srquo;—has developed critical mass since Toronto roots music powerhouse True North Records picked it up a few months back. A follow-up to her 2004 solo debut, Dark Dream Midnight, Church Bell Blues is stark, confessional, brutally honest. Its intense narratives invite self-examination and invoke universal experiences."

Ever since I wrote about my mother leaving my abusive stepfather in a December column for the Chapel Hill News, I have been thinking about my experience with gendered violence and the web of violence that many women experience. Sometimes we are haunted by our own stories and can only know them fully when we find courage to write about them. Below is my column that appeared last week:
Like Most Women
Like most women, I have often carried red pepper spray, a whistle and positioned my keys in between my knuckles when walking to my car at night.
Like most women, I have at least once walked out into the middle of a street, or crossed a street to avoid a man walking too close behind me at night.
Like most women, I have while walking alone at night pretended to talk on a cellphone to give the appearance that someone could help me if needed.
Like most women, I have at times relied on male authority, status and power to keep me safe.
Like most women, I have felt the chill of cat calls, and resentment toward the ubiquitous phrase "Why don't you give me a smile today?"
Like most women, I have taken a self-defense class and considered taking more.
Like most women, I fear the kind of attack that is statistically very low: stranger rape.
Like most women, I have been sexually harassed in one of the jobs that I have held.
Like most women, as a girl, I grew up feeling like a type of prey for boys.
Like most women, I know a female family member who is a survivor of sexual assault.
Like most women, I know a woman who was sexually assaulted and never told anyone for fear of not being believed.
Like most women, I have survived an attempted sexual assault.
Like most women, I have known women in abusive relationships.
Like most women, when I was a teenager, I was in a relationship where someone hit me.
Like most women, for a long time I internalized my anger, confusion and shame.
Like most women, I yearn for a world without sexual violence.
Like most women, I wish this world would come soon.
Like most women, I know changes will not come about unless I speak my truth, encourage others to speak their truth, get involved and stay involved.
I was 10 years old when the first "Take Back the Night" marches were held in New York and San Francisco in 1978. These rallies began in the U.K. with women highlighting women's lack of physical safety at night. These campaigns grew into a much larger set of responses to protest and raise awareness about many facets of sexual violence. Sexual violence is a broad term and includes rape, incest, child sexual abuse, intimate partner violence, sexual exploitation, human trafficking, unwanted sexual contact, sexual harassment, exposure and voyeurism.
My experiences listed above reflect the continuum of many women's experiences with sexual violence in the U.S. and globally. The most common form of violence experienced by women globally is physical violence inflicted by an intimate partner. On average, at least one in three women is beaten, coerced into sex or otherwise abused by an intimate partner in the course of her lifetime (U.N. fact sheet).
April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. Why April? As demonstrations and violence prevention efforts grew over the last two decades, they often coalesced around domestic violence. In the 1980s October became Domestic Violence Awareness Month. By the late 1990s many sexual assault advocates were using the first week of April as a time to focus attention on broad sexual assault issues. The National Coalition Against Sexual Assault (NCASA) and other groups began advocating for a month-long focus on sexual violence.
This year's campaign is focused on youth. This campaign provides tools on healthy adolescent sexuality and engaging youth in activism about sexual violence prevention. According to recent research that appeared in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, we know that one in six boys and one in four girls will experience a sexual assault before the age 18. We also know according to CDC data that approximately 9 percent of high school students report being hit, slapped, or physically hurt on purpose by a boyfriend or girlfriend in the 12 months before surveyed.
April is a time to step up our knowledge and prevention efforts to help make our communities safe from sexual violence. For creative ways to get involved check out the National Sexual Violence Resource Center's website nsvrc.org.

An Alberta man was found guilty Monday of aggravated assault for a brutal attack on a gay and legally blind man who'd made a sexual advance on his attacker in McBride, B.C.
B.C. Supreme Court Justice Frits Verhoeven said Allan Richter, 33, of Ponoka, Alta., used a degree of force "far beyond that which could reasonably or even conceivably be considered necessary in the circumstances,'' when he attacked William Floris Groeneveld, 56.
During a trial, the court heard that Groeneveld made a sexual advance towards Richter on Dec. 11, 2011 when he touched his buttocks and his genitals minutes after Richter's SUV got stuck in the snow while giving Groeneveld a ride home.
Richter punched Groeneveld three times in his face leaving him with a broken jaw, multiple lacerations and severe swelling to his head.
He was in hospital for nine days and he continues to suffer problems with his balance, his memory as well as his jaw as a result.
Groeneveld, who suffers from an inherited progressive eye disease and has been effectively blind for many years, testified he had lost his way home after leaving a pub and returned to the building where he asked Richter for a ride, which ended with Richter's SUV going off the road.
He said Richter started "flipping out'' and Groeneveld hugged him to calm him down and that's when he made a sexual advance that ended with the assault.
The attack was believed to have occurred sometime after 2 a.m. and Groeneveld was found in a snow bank about 4 a.m. by a resident who went outside because her dogs were barking and heard someone calling for help. It was about -10 C at the time. "His temperature was well below normal, without warming he would have died,'' Verhoeven said.
Police spotted Richter's SUV about 150 metres away and Richter was found inside curled up and sleeping.
Although the evidence was circumstantial because Groeneveld cannot see, the judge concluded Richter was the one who gave Groeneveld the ride, noting the victim's blood was found on Richter's shoe and near the SUV.

Advisory committee.
(1) By August 1, 2011, each school district shall adopt or amend if necessary a policy and procedure that at a minimum incorporates the revised model policy and procedure provided under subsection (4) of this section that prohibits the harassment, intimidation, or bullying of any student. It is the responsibility of each school district to share this policy with parents or guardians, students, volunteers, and school employees in accordance with rules adopted by the superintendent of public instruction. Each school district shall designate one person in the district as the primary contact regarding the antiharassment, intimidation, or bullying policy. The primary contact shall receive copies of all formal and informal complaints, have responsibility for assuring the implementation of the policy and procedure, and serve as the primary contact on the policy and procedures between the school district, the office of the education ombuds, and the office of the superintendent of public instruction.
(2) "Harassment, intimidation, or bullying" means any intentional electronic, written, verbal, or physical act, including but not limited to one shown to be motivated by any characteristic in RCW
(3), or other distinguishing characteristics, when the intentional electronic, written, verbal, or physical act:
(a) Physically harms a student or damages the student's property; or
(b) Has the effect of substantially interfering with a student's education; or
(c) Is so severe, persistent, or pervasive that it creates an intimidating or threatening educational environment; or
(d) Has the effect of substantially disrupting the orderly operation of the school.
Nothing in this section requires the affected student to actually possess a characteristic that is a basis for the harassment, intimidation, or bullying.
(3) The policy and procedure should be adopted or amended through a process that includes representation of parents or guardians, school employees, volunteers, students, administrators, and community representatives. It is recommended that each such policy emphasize positive character traits and values, including the importance of civil and respectful speech and conduct, and the responsibility of students to comply with the district's policy prohibiting harassment, intimidation, or bullying.
(4)(a) By August 1, 2010, the superintendent of public instruction, in consultation with representatives of parents, school personnel, the office of the education ombuds, the Washington state school directors' association, and other interested parties, shall provide to the education committees of the legislature a revised and updated model harassment, intimidation, and bullying prevention policy and procedure. The superintendent of public instruction shall publish on its web site, with a link to the safety center web page, the revised and updated model harassment, intimidation, and bullying prevention policy and procedure, along with training and instructional materials on the components that shall be included in any district policy and procedure. The superintendent shall adopt rules regarding school districts' communication of the policy and procedure to parents, students, employees, and volunteers.
(b) The office of the superintendent of public instruction has the authority to update with new technologies access to this information in the safety center, to the extent resources are made available.
(c) Each school district shall by August 15, 2011, provide to the superintendent of public instruction a brief summary of its policies, procedures, programs, partnerships, vendors, and instructional and training materials to be posted on the school safety center web site, and shall also provide the superintendent with a link to the school district's web site for further information. The district's primary contact for bullying and harassment issues shall annually by August 15th verify posted information and links and notify the school safety center of any updates or changes.
(5) The Washington state school directors' association, with the assistance of the office of the superintendent of public instruction, shall convene an advisory committee to develop a model policy prohibiting acts of harassment, intimidation, or bullying that are conducted via electronic means by a student while on school grounds and during the school day. The policy shall include a requirement that materials meant to educate parents and students about the seriousness of cyberbullying be disseminated to parents or made available on the school district's web site. The school directors' association and the advisory committee shall develop sample materials for school districts to disseminate, which shall also include information on responsible and safe internet use as well as what options are available if a student is being bullied via electronic means including, but not limited to, reporting threats to local police and when to involve school officials, the internet service provider, or phone service provider. The school directors' association shall submit the model policy and sample materials, along with a recommendation for local adoption, to the governor and the legislature and shall post the model policy and sample materials on its web site by January 1, 2008. Each school district board of directors shall establish its own policy by August 1, 2008.
(6) As used in this section, "electronic" or "electronic means" means any communication where there is the transmission of information by wire, radio, optical cable, electromagnetic, or other similar means.
2013 c 23 § 50;
2010 c 239 § 2;
2007 c 407 § 1;
2002 c 207 § 2.
2010 c 239:
"The legislature finds that despite a recognized law prohibiting harassment, intimidation, and bullying of students in public schools and despite widespread adoption of antiharassment policies by school districts, harassment of students continues and has not declined since the law was enacted. Furthermore, students and parents continue to seek assistance against harassment, and schools need to disseminate more widely their antiharassment policies and procedures. The legislature intends to expand the tools, information, and strategies that can be used to combat harassment, intimidation, and bullying of students, and increase awareness of the need for respectful learning communities in all public schools." [
2010 c 239 § 1.
2002 c 207:
"The legislature declares that a safe and civil environment in school is necessary for students to learn and achieve high academic standards. The legislature finds that harassment, intimidation, or bullying, like other disruptive or violent behavior, is conduct that disrupts both a student's ability to learn and a school's ability to educate its students in a safe environment.
Furthermore, the legislature finds that students learn by example. The legislature commends school administrators, faculty, staff, and volunteers for demonstrating appropriate behavior, treating others with civility and respect, and refusing to tolerate harassment, intimidation, or bullying." [
2002 c 207 § 1.

Sometimes the best way to ensure a job is done right is to do it yourself, especially when doing so adds to the bottom line and trims turnaround time. Add to this the ability to salvage damaged cylinders, a higher quality finished product and increased worker safety, and it's no surprise why Louisville, Ky.-based Air Hydro Power acquired a Sunnen HTA horizontal tube hone to repair and recondition its own hydraulic cylinders. Adding the HTA to its repair shop's machine tool lineup allowed Air Hydro to bring previously outsourced honing work back in-house, helping it regain control of job turnaround times and save the company thousands in outsourcing costs.
Air Hydro Power started in 1961 in its founder's basement, but quickly established itself as a major player in hydraulics in 1965 by becoming the third Vickers distributor in the U.S. The acquisition of Marlatt Controls in 1983 brought pneumatics technology into the business. In 1998 the company was purchased by its current owners, Dick Beaven, Thomas McGuire and Matthew Ott, and acquisition of Premier Hydraulic Services the same year added a repair facility now known as Air Hydro Repair Division.
When Air Hydro Power's Perry Goldstein assumed leadership of the repair division in 2007, the company's in-house honing capability consisted of hand honing with a half-inch chuck Milwaukee drill. "Hand honing was physically demanding and a little tricky," said Goldstein, Air Hydro's Director of Value Added Services. "If someone accidentally hit the reverse switch while adjusting the hone, the stones would bite the tube and rotate the drill, which is not good if you're the one standing next to it."
Other factors, such as inability to maintain constant stone pressure and having to deal with blind bores, relegated Air Hydro's in-house honing to low-end tasks such as taking out light scratches, deglazing or polishing. "Correctly honing a tube, maintaining accurate diameter and keeping all the taper out, is really difficult to do by hand," added Goldstein. Therefore, parts requiring more significant material removal had to be sent out at significant cost. Outsourcing also took out some control of meeting delivery dates, putting Air Hydro at the mercy of its honing subcontractors.
"There were times when sending parts out-of-house came back to bite us," said Goldstein. "A third party may not have the same sense of urgency we do. We'll work all night and do everything we can to deliver parts on time, because we have ultimate accountability to our customers. Bringing the HTA on board gives us more control of projects and the ability to deliver when we promise."
The AHP repair division services and repairs all brands of industrial and mobile hydraulic pumps, motors, and valves, bust the majority of the work in the repair shop is primarily focused on refurbishing steel hydraulic cylinders used in construction equipment, material handling equipment (forklift trucks, telehandlers, and lift-gates) and heavy industry (cranes, oil rigs, off-road vehicles). Approximately 80% of AHP's repair work is done on cylinders 8 in. (203.2 mm) or smaller in diameter, however it has honing stone sets and holders that handle bores up to 18 in. (457.2 mm). "Our largest lathe has a 3-ft swing and 15-ft bed," said Goldstein. "But, most of our work is done on our 22-in. swing lathe. The HTA fits perfectly with our other equipment."
The Sunnen HTA tube honing system handles parts weighing up to 8000 lb (3629 kg) with ID ranges from 2.5 to 21 in. (63.5 to 533 mm). The HTA machine is available for 6-ft (2 m) and 12-ft (4 m) part lengths. Air Hydro Power (AHP), Louisville, a distributor and repair center for fluid powr components and systems, has a 12-ft model HTA machine. The HTA is designed for resurfacing and repair work where light-duty stock removal up to 0.030 in. (0.76 mm) is required.
AHP's HTA hone also gives the repair shop greater flexibility on how to approach a job, and has saved many cylinders from the scrap heap. "Having the hone in-house allows us to look at the size and complexity of each job and determine if it's a repair or a replacement," said Goldstein. "Prior to the HTA, we'd rub a finger over the tube and determine the material removal to be 0.005 in., which means 0.01 in. off the diameter. That would require us to make a new piston, new seals, etc., and we were better off just making a new tube."
What AHP discovered, however, is the grooves felt larger than they actually were due to the "finger test" reflecting raised material as well as missing material. "Now, we put that tube on the HTA, make a few passes and find that, once honed, the tube may be only 0.001 or 0.002 in. over tolerance and the seals can easily absorb 0.002 in., so we save the tube."
The HTA also comes in handy when AHP builds a cylinder from scratch, which requires the tube to have a trunnion mounted. When the trunnion is welded on, the cylinder will distort and cause a tight spot. AHP hones the tube to eliminate the tight spot and allow the piston to pass. The shop also hones across all ports on the tube, which improves the life of the seals and wear bands.
The HTA includes a Siemens drive and PLC-control with touch-screen HMI for setting machine parameters such as stroke reversal point, spindle/stroking speed and crosshatch angle calculation. The control features a load meter to determine areas of bore tightness, and provides the ability to dwell the tool in multiple areas to correct part geometry. A touch screen-controlled hone provides a safer working environment and reduces operator fatigue. It also provides better quality parts by producing a controlled crosshatch pattern, which allows the honed surface to retain oil or grease, ensuring proper lubrication and ring seal of pistons in cylinders. "Having an automatically stroked machine is better for our crew and better for our parts," said Goldstein.
Transition to the HTA was easy for AHP, as the machine uses the same Sunnen ANR tooling the shop was using to hand hone. The shop's crew also appreciates how fast and easy the machine is to operate vs. the old hand honing method. "Generally, it takes us longer to set the machine up than to run it," said Goldstein. "We know how much material is removed for every minute the machine runs, so we calculate the surface area and set the time. Once we get it set, we can hit the go button, walk away for a few minutes, come back and measure and we're done."
The shop will run anywhere from two to 15 parts per day through the hone. "We've got it down to where we will stage the tubes by grouping like sizes, so we can run it without changing the setup," added Goldstein.
On the business side of the equation, the HTA hone has delivered excellent return on the investment. Goldstein cited an example of a large-bore, thin-walled steel cylinder that the company had outsourced due to the complexity of the honing operation required to get the part to spec. "This part is extremely hard to hone," said Goldstein. "The manufacturer would have to make three or four parts to get one to spec, and that makes for a very expensive part."
Air Hydro developed special fixturing for the part and was able to hone it in-house with the HTA. "It took us some time to get the set up right," said Goldstein. "But, in the big picture we saved a lot of money."
The savings goes beyond eliminating third party help. "When we were looking to justify the purchase, we considered not only the elimination of outsourced work, but also warranty claims that would have been written off," said Goldstein. "We've had the machine less than a year and it's already paid for itself."

January 14, 2010
By Diana Greenwood
A typical MBA student acquires certain knowledge by examining case studies and mastering core competencies. But it is the opportunity to put this knowledge into practice, while still a student, that can afford new skills, attitudes and ways of thinking - and sometimes even an unforeseen bonus. For the full time UCLA Anderson student, the Applied Management Research (AMR) program is the stage for this indispensible experiential learning opportunity.
Connecting second-year students with executives from organizations around the world, AMR is a challenging two-quarter in-depth strategic field study project. Working in teams, and with a faculty mentor, students examine a specific company, industry, and what strategic opportunity might be identified for exploration. The project culminates with the teams' written strategic implementation recommendation, which they also present to company executives.
For recent '09 UCLA Anderson graduates Tina Lee, Richard Ho, Leo Huang, Stanley Huang, and Alexander Rosten - their AMR project not only imparted real meaning from direct experience, but involved an unusual occurrence, as well.
The five partnered with T&T Supermarket Inc., a Canadian supermarket chain, specializing in Asian food products, with 18 stores across Canada. A household name among many ethnic Canadians, the retailer was interested in developing an effective customer loyalty program. Luckily for T&T Supermarket Inc., the daughter of their CEO also just happened to be UCLA Anderson student Tina Lee. And it was Lee, currently the director, strategy & operations for T&T Supermarket Inc., who convinced her mother to participate in the AMR project.
After taking his Global Supply Chain class, Lee asked Professor Chris Tang if he would join the team as faculty mentor. Possessing strong interest and experience in retailing, Tang was excited to be a part of the venture. "I worked very closely with the team," said Tang, "scoping the project, and providing feedback on the project plan." Tang also remained close to the team as they progressed, reviewing survey forms, research findings, their written reports and various incarnations of their final presentation.
But Professor Tang went even further. After the team discovered something interesting in their survey analysis, Tang suggested they "extract the essence of their project" into a research paper, and encouraged Lee to obtain approval from T&T Supermarket Inc.
"What we discovered was that in today's global marketplace, customer loyalty can't be approached from a 'one-size-fits-all' perspective," said team member Rosten. "Professor Tang was particularly excited about the work we had done and challenged us to take an even more comprehensive approach."
Professor Tang did not imagine that the research findings would be published, as publication depends on many factors including timeliness, relevance, and client reputation, as well as the creativity and novelty of the research methodologies and results, the implications of the results, and the creative writing.
"It wasn't until we completed our initial conclusions that publication seemed possible," added Rosten. "And a few weeks before completing our project, Professor Tang made it clear that he thought publication was a real possibility."
"Since we were under a real time crunch, and the students did not have a lot of extra time, I took the lead in writing the paper," said Tang, "by extracting elements from their 80 page AMR report into a 20 page article." But Tang emphasized that the entire team was involved in providing feedback and comment during each iteration of the paper to ensure that it captured all the important aspects of the project.
"It is always about team work," concluded Tang. "That's why AMR is a relevant and rewarding experience for the UCLA Anderson student. As for faculty, working with AMR teams is a way for us to strengthen our relationships with our students and alumni for years to come."
The paper, which highlights the common pitfalls of various customer loyalty programs and shows how a firm can design an effective program, was recently published in the international journal Managing Service Quality.
"Professor Tang was a model advisor," said Rosten. "He did not hesitate to challenge our assumptions and recommend alternative approaches if needed. In my opinion, his guidance elevated our work to a level of comprehensiveness atypical of most field studies."

On April 19, 2006, an explosion destroyed the Campbellsburg United Methodist Church building. During our despair, everyone was so kind and caring. We were offered alternate facilities in which to hold our services. Many people kept us in their prayers and sent donations to speed us on our way toward construction of a new building. It is through all this Christian generosity that the building is now complete.

As a native Texan, the only thing I enjoy more than burnouts is truck burnouts. I look at them the same way I look at barbecue: the smokier, the better.
This video meets all of those requirements. It's so smoky and truck-tacular, it makes me want to cry. They say it's the best Lightning burnout video ever; I say if you all can find a better one, post it in the comments.
Hat tip to Jonathan!

Forget breaking eggs to make an omelet. When you're trying to break the sound barrier, you can — accidentally — wipe out an entire flock of chickens.
That's what happened May 18, 1953, when Jacqueline Cochran, flying an F-86 Sabrejet out of Edwards Air Force Base, became the first woman to break the sound barrier. She did it by taking the jet to 45,000 feet and diving toward the earth. Actually she did it twice. The first time she executed the maneuver she was told the sonic boom had not been heard, so she went up a second time and produced the boom.
A local chicken rancher complained that his stock was so frightened by the noise that the chickens crammed into a corner, where several smothered to death.
When she heard about the fowl fatalities, Cochran allegedly told the rancher ""Produce the dead chickens and I'll pay for them.""

It is high summer, and it is hot, hot, hot. Most of the country right now is suffering from triple-digit heat, and no one wants to be in the kitchen. Thus, this cooling summertime salad that relies on a very gentle poaching method that makes the pheasant (or yes, chicken, if you are not a hunter) breast perfectly tender without allowing it to dry out. A touch of fennel makes things even cooler. Enjoy! ~Hank
Cooling salads are the way to go in summer. Fennel has the same cooling properties as cucumbers, so I decided to base a pheasant salad on it, adding some fennel pollen and some fresh, green fennel seeds, too. No worries if you can't find the seeds, though — the salad is good without them. The method for cooking the pheasant — and yes, you can use chicken, partridges, turkey or grouse — is special, and results in very tender meat. You poach the skinless breasts in broth very, very gently. It is foolproof.
- 2 pheasant or chicken breasts
- 1 quart pheasant or chicken broth
- 1 medium fennel bulb, chopped
- 2 teaspoons fennel pollen (optional)
- 2 tablespoons green fennel seeds (optional)
- 1 tablespoon fresh mint leaves, chopped
- 1 small hot chile, such as a cayenne, sliced thin
- Zest and juice of a lemon
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Bring the broth to a simmer in a lidded pot. Turn the heat off and drop the pheasant breasts in. Make sure they are submerged. Cover the pot.
- Meanwhile, chop the fennel bulb into pieces you'd want to eat. I like them about the size of my thumbnail. Add all the remaining ingredients and set aside.
- The pheasant breasts should be fully cooked in 20 minutes. Turkey and chicken breasts are larger and will take longer. A turkey breast might require a full 45 minutes in the warm broth. (Save the broth for soup or something else. It will keep in the fridge a week or so.) When the pheasant is cool enough to handle, shred it into pieces with your hands. I like the texture and appearance of shredded meat, but if this skeeves you out I suppose you can chop it.
- Mix everything together and let this sit, covered, at room temperature for an hour or so before eating. You can also store it overnight in the fridge.
Let this salad marinate for at least an hour or two before you serve it, so the flavors will all meld. It's good made the day before, too. I like to eat it with a crisp white wine and some crusty bread as a light summer supper.

Your audiobook is waiting…
The Indigo Pheasant
Publisher's Summary
London 1817. Maggie Collins, born into slavery in Maryland, whose mathematical genius and strength of mind can match those of a goddess, must build the world's most powerful and sophisticated machine - to free the lost land of Yount from the fallen angel Strix Tender Wurm. Sally, of the merchant house McDoon, who displayed her own powers in challenging the Wurm and finding Yount in The Choir Boats, must choose either to help Maggie or to hinder her.
Together - or not - Maggie and Sally drive to conclusion the story started in The Choir Boats - a story of blood - soaked song, family secrets, sins new and old in search of expiation, forbidden love, high policy and acts of state, financial ruin, betrayals intimate and grand, sorcery from the origins of time, and battle in the streets of London and on the arcane seas of Yount.

Fails on Job One
Sigh...I wanted to love The Indigo Pheasant because the first of this series, The Choir Boats, was such a nice introduction to a unique author's voice and I thought the 2nd in the series was bound to be more of the same or better, but it isn't. If I'm reading non-fiction, Job One of the book is enlightenment and if I am entertained in the process so much the better. Reverse that for fiction; Job One is to engage my mind fully, help me totally suspend disbelief, and if I learn something in the process, all the better. Rabuzzi's fiction succeeds admirably at enlightening; his use of a wide and sophisticated vocabulary and the many historical, literary, and mythological references kept me thinking and "googling" throughout the book, but The Indigo Pheasant fails on Job One. If you read fiction strictly for really beautiful and poetic language, you can "float" a while listening to this book, but this is not a fantasy novel that will you carry off to another world - the sensation I had was more like reading someone's journal of an adventure than of having an adventure myself.
Plot: All but about the last hour and 1/2 of this audio book is about the politics and financing involved in building a boat. It is a boat designed to save the world, but 12 hours is still a long time to for boat-building to be engaging. Rabuzzi tries to build some tension in the narrative with some subplots, but his attempts are thwarted by the fact that almost everything is being relayed to the listener via his rather wooden dialog and a whole series of quotes and epistolary fragments. The quotes, receipts, letters, and legal excerpts do provide a good sense of the period of time and the mindset of early 19th century people, but it's not a very engrossing way to tell a fantasy tale.
Characters: After creating some very interesting, albeit larger than life, characters in The Choir Boats, Rabuzzi "disappears" many of the characters in The Indigo Pheasant - killing off some, and sidelining many. And then he makes two of the central players, Sally and Maggie, completely unlikable. Sally, who I loved for her intrepid spirit, strong loyalty to family, and kindness becomes a love-sick idiot - completely self-absorbed, stupid, and oblivious to her mission, family, and friends. Maggie, who was the mysterious, determined underdog in The Choir Boats, suddenly becomes arrogant, judgmental, and brash to the point of rudeness. Both of these women displaying a complete lack of empathy or ANY sense of humor. Lively characters like Barnabas, Tom, and Jambres are relegated to cameo roles. New characters are barely fleshed out.
Subject Matter: Although some of the references and vocabulary in The Choir Boats would be over the head of younger readers, the story was one that would engage older children and teens as well as adults. The Indigo Pheasant, however, is not a book I would share with anyone younger than teens since it touches on murder, sex, and abortion. There are a couple of other scenes and some dialog that seem to have been thrown in simply to make the book more "adult" rather than to further the plot.
Narration: I still enjoyed Kieron Elliot's rich Scotch-toned voice, but the narration suffered from the fact that there is so much dialog in The Indigo Pheasant and Elliot can't do any accent other than Scottish and these characters are from all over the world. In addition, he gave Maggie a kind of automaton voice that made her less likable than Rabuzzi's characterization had already done.
Rabuzzi seems to be planning further adventures for Maggie and I may be willing to try Rabuzzi again because he has a really interesting authorial voice. But he will have to work harder on Job One to keep me listening in the future.

Selenocysteine is the analog of cysteine having the same structure as that of cysteine. But here sulphur atom is replaced by selenium. The Health Store Selenocysteine is the 21st amino acid found in the ribosome mediated protein synthesis. It is present in several enzymes (for example glutathione peroxidases, tetraiodothyronine 5′ deiodinases, thioredoxin reductases, formate dehydrogenases, glycine reductases, and some hydrogenases). Selenocysteine has a structure similar to that of cysteine, but with an atom of selenium taking the place of the usual sulfur, forming a selenol group which is deprotonated at physiological pH. Proteins that contain one or more selenocysteine residues are called selenoproteins. There is no single free pool of selenocysteine amino acid that exists within cells to be used
Selenocysteine is the protein, or food form, of the antioxidant selenium, and it is used in almost every cell process in the body. It is one of the only amino acids that is not directly coded into the genetic code, and no free pool of selenocysteine exists within cells to be used. This means that it is an essential amino acid and must be absorbed by cells and obtained through foods to maintain proper levels in the body. The body uses the selenocysteine amino acid to produce selenium. It is believed that this may protect against mercury toxicity, and people with low levels of selenium in their body may be more prone to poor liver function, low muscle mass, premature aging, and even heart disease.
Selenocysteine is created after the digestive system breaks proteins from the diet into its individual amino acids. Selenocysteine is a genetically coded amino acid, serving as a stop codon. Stop codons signal amino-acid chains, which will become proteins, to stop growing, releasing the protein to perform its intended function in the body. Selenoproteins are formed when the amino acid selenocysteine — often called the 21st amino acid — combines with selenium from the diet in a very specific spot in the amino-acid chain.
Functions and benefits Selenocysteine
- The important functions of selenocysteine in proteins are its anti –oxidant activity. This is due to its lower pKa and higher reduction potential.
- It is also used in the preparation of variety of vitamins and lots of other supplements.
- It is also fortified with livestock feeds.
- Our body utilizes selenocysteine to form selenium, which is believe to play important role in preventing mercury toxicity as well as enhance liver functions.
- Selenocysteine is not directly incorporated into other proteins. It provides its function on its own. For this reason it is highly reactive and not used in the same way as the body uses other amino acids.
- In some cases a marked decrease in catalytic activity of an enzyme is observed when a selenocysteine residue is replaced with cysteine. This substitution caused complete loss of glycine reductase selenoprotein A activity.
- Selenocysteine is the 21st naturally occuring amino acid, and is coded for by the RNA codon UGA, which is normally a "stop" signal, but is modified in some organisms to create selenocysteine by a subsequent RNA loop, which is interpreted by a group of genes called the sel group, which are activated by the loop in the mRNA and produce molecule of tRNA for selenocysteine.
Selenocysteine deficiency
- People deficient with selenium have lean body mass, prone to premature aging.
- Weaken the immune system, making the body more susceptible to illness, as well as lead to heart disease or hypothyroidism.
Rich food sources of Selenocysteine
- Animal origin: Selenocysteine animal sources are meat, poultry, chicken, egg, cheese fish, seafood and turkey.
- Plant origin: Selenocysteine of plant origin contains wheat, oats, corn, rice, nuts especially of Brazil nuts, soybeans.
- Selenocysteine is an organic selenium compound found naturally in some plants such as garlic, onions, broccoli and wild leeks grown in high selenium soil.

I have many times thought about quitting Facebook, and there are many reasons to do so I think. Personally, what keeps me from quitting, is the messenger app, for making appointments etc. If there was a more serious alternative to FB, I think I would quit immediately.
But I guess FB has become too powerful to have competition from other sites, or what are your thoughts on that? Maybe Twitter, but it isn't quite my cup of tea either.
I found this video very good:

Virtually every recipe I try from reader Caroline Kennedy's family cookbook, "Recipes from a Mother's Heart," such as this one for French toast casserole, is a keeper. Ever generous, Caroline grants permission to reprint recipes from her book, and we are the richer (and better fed) for it.
Because French Toast Casserole can be made-ahead of baking, you're going to want to hold on to this recipe, especially for those times when you are entertaining guests for breakfast. And, should those guests be expected at this time of the year, when strawberries are in season - maybe for a Mother's Day gathering - even better; French toast casserole is designed to be served with a sauce made from fresh strawberries. Caroline's recipe for Baked Applewood-Smoked Bacon is another keeper and particularly toothsome paired with the casserole - balancing sweet and salty with smooth and crunchy. The cornmeal/brown sugar/black pepper-coated bacon can also be put together ahead of baking - another timesaver come time for breakfast. Although the recipe for French toast casserole calls for French bread (or Challah bread) in the list of ingredients, I found making it with leftover cinnamon-walnut coffee cake cubes particularly satisfying and flavorful. (You'll find one of my favorite bread-machine coffee cake recipes here, too.)
Mother's Day is Sunday, so if your plans include a special breakfast for Mom, keep these recipes in mind. The most important meal of the day can also be the prettiest, especially when it's created for Mom.

Recipe contributed by Maggie Lang, from "Recipes from a Mother's Heart: In loving memory of Iris Iona Sullivan Bain, Mother, friend and amazing cook," compiled and edited by Caroline W. Kennedy, Bluffton
1 (16-ounce) French or challah loaf, cubed, divided*
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, cut into pieces
6 large eggs, or 1½ cups egg substitute
4 cups half and half
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
¼ cup maple syrup*
Strawberry Sauce
2 cups fresh sliced strawberries
1 (10-ounce) jar strawberry preserves
Lightly coat a 13 x 9-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Arrange half challah bread in prepared pan. Sprinkle with cheese pieces and top with remaining bread; reserve. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and next 3 ingredients; pour over bread mixture, pressing bread cubes to absorb egg mixture. Cover with foil and refrigerate 8 hours.
To bake: heat oven to 350 degrees. Bake, covered, for 25 minutes. Uncover and bake for 20 more minutes. Cool in pan for 5 minutes. Cut into squares; serve with strawberry sauce. Yield: 10 servings. For the strawberry sauce: heat strawberries and preserves in a medium saucepan over low heat.
*Kitchen Ade note: for the purposes of this recipe, I used leftover cinnamon-walnut coffeecake. Because the cake was sweet, the maple syrup was omitted.
Recipe courtesy Caroline Kennedy, Bluffton
16 thick slices Applewood-smoked bacon
¼ cup course-ground yellow cornmeal
3 tablespoons brown sugar, optional*
1½ teaspoons freshly ground black pepper, optional*
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line two jellyroll baking sheets with aluminum foil. Place wire racks on top. Pour cornmeal into a shallow pan (add brown sugar and pepper if using). Dredge bacon in mixture, shaking off excess. Place half the bacon in a single layer on wire rack. Repeat with second rack. Bake for 6 minutes. Turn the cookie sheet around and bake for another 4 to 7 minutes or to desired degree of crispiness. Lift the bacon out with tongs and set on a platter covered in paper towels. Dab the tops with paper towel, too. Yield: 8 servings.
*Kitchen Ade note: I used both the brown sugar and the pepper for this recipe; it was delicious.
For the cake
1 cup milk
4 tablespoons water
4 tablespoons butter
1 egg (room temperature), beaten
1 tablespoon sugar
4 cups bread flour
1 (3.5 ounce) box instant vanilla or white chocolate pudding
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
2½ teaspoons bread machine yeast
Cinnamon-Walnut Filling
4 tablespoons (½ stick) butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped walnuts, plus walnut halves for decorating cake (optional)
Confectioners' Sugar Glaze
1 cup sifted confectioners' sugar
2 to 3 tablespoons water
Place milk, water and butter in a microwave-safe 4-cup glass measuring cup. Microwave on high for 2 to 3 minutes, or until butter is melted (do not allow milk to boil). Remove from microwave and allow to cool to 120 degrees (use a thermometer). Place the milk mixture, egg, sugar, flour, pudding, salt and nutmeg into the canister of the bread machine in the order given. Make an indentation with your finger into the dry ingredients and pour in the yeast. (Do not allow yeast to come into contact with the liquid.) Select the dough cycle, and start the machine. Towards the end of the dough cycle, prepare the filling by mixing the ingredients in medium-size microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds, or until mixture becomes soft enough to spread; set aside. When the dough cycle is finished, remove the dough and roll it out on a lightly floured surface into 24 x 8-inch rectangle. (The dough will be easy to work with and very elastic.) With buttered clean hands, spread the filling in an even layer over the dough, stopping short about 1/2-inch from the sides of the dough, then wash and dry hands. Starting with the long end, roll the dough, jellyroll style into a tight log. Place the log, into a lightly greased 12-cup ring pan, following the circular contour of the pan. Moisten the ends of the dough and pinch to seal. (Do not worry if it does not look perfect. The seam will be covered with icing later.) Cover the pan with a tea towel and allow it to rise in a warm place, free of drafts, until it becomes doubles in size, about 30 minutes. Once the dough has risen, place the pan in a preheated 350-degree oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until lightly browned, turning pan after 15 minutes to ensure even browning. Once cake is finished baking, allow cake to rest on pan for 10 minutes before removing to wire rack to cool completely. Once the cake is cool, pour the glaze over all, allowing glaze to drip down the sides, topping cake with additional nuts, as desired.
Kitchen Ade note: Break leftover coffeecake into cubes for making French toast casserole and bread pudding. If cubes are frozen, for future use, they will keep, tightly wrapped, for up to three months.

There are several web frameworks for Haskell like Happstack, Snap, and Yesod, and probably a few more.
In what aspects do they differ from each other? For example:
- features (e.g. server only, or also client scripting, easy support for different kinds of database)
- maturity (e.g. stability, documentation quality)
- scalability (e.g. performance, handy abstraction)
- main targets
Also, what are examples of real-world sites / web apps using these frameworks?
Many thanks.

CARSON CITY, Nev., Feb. 10 (UPI) -- Nevada's attorney general Monday filed a motion with the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to withdraw its brief supporting the state's same-sex marriage ban.
The move means the Silver State will no longer argue to uphold the constitutional ban on same-sex marriage passed by voters in 2002.
"The decision in SmithKline Beecham vs. Abbott Laboratories ... is being brought to the court's attention ... because it was issued the same day that the state was required to file its answering brief, thus not affording the state an opportunity to analyze its legal application," Attorney General Catherine Cortez Masto said in a statement.
"When the federal District Court decided this case in November 2012, the law regarding treatment of same-sex couples under traditional marriage laws was uncertain. But the legal landscape has since changed. Windsor vs. United States, decided in June 2013, has been interpreted by the 9th Circuit's decision in SmithKline to require heightened scrutiny to classifications based on sexual orientation. The decision in SmithKline is controlling and sets a new standard of review for cases in the 9th Circuit."
The 9th Circuit's SmithKline decision bars lawyers from discriminating against potential jurors because of their sexual orientation.
"After thoughtful review and analysis, the state has determined that its arguments grounded upon equal protection and due process are no longer sustainable," Cortez Masto said.
State legislators last year set in motion a repeal of the ban. If the Assembly passes Senate Joint Resolution 13 next year, the repeal would go to a voter referendum in 2016.

Editing is always better if we can identify our own tendencies and problems in our writing. I do wonder what others have identified in their writing because usually it's probably something I do too, only I'm not aware of it yet.
I'll start - my three worst offenses in writing:
1) One of my worst habits in writing, I think, is repetitiveness of both concepts and words:
- I tend to repeat the same idea like: you have to die, i don't want to die, but you have to, but i really don't want to. Okay, okay, we got the message the first five times I'd written it.
- I also tend to repeat adjectives and synonyms - she was a courageous woman, strong, powerful and tough. The problem here is that I tend to fall in love with sentences like that: Oh, but Melly, you practically used all the words in the thesaurus to describe X's 'strong' attributes; you're so clever. (Heck, even the title of this post is the same).
3) Finally, my tendency to overuse adverbs. By definition almost, adverbs are unnecessary. What are adverbs if not parts of speech that modify verbs? And what are verbs if not actions already? So why modify them? Naturally, it is all case dependent, but most times adverbs are a form of repetition. For example, X quietly tiptoed around the house, should be X tiptoed around the house. Tiptoeing is already quiet!
Yes, yes, adverbs also modify adjectives and other adverbs, but I'm talking here about my tendencies of modifying verbs.
What I'm glad is that at this point I know my weaknesses and usually manage to take them out during the writing process, yet they still manage to sneak in. However, since I'm aware of them, the editing process becomes somewhat easier.

Re: Bug or ID10T User Error?
ViEmu 2.5.5 for VS 2010 with ReSharper and a bunch of other things installed.
I was trying to yank this code fragment to register a in small-v visual mode.
If I start from the beginning using these keystrokes
ViEmu tosses a pair of unwanted quotes at the end:
Puzzled, I checked the docs because I'm not even a white-belt vi/vim user yet. ;-) Couldn't find anything wrong. On a whim I tried from the other end using these keystrokes.
and that works, though it misses the ; at the end.
Is this a bug (the "" at the end using v) or a misunderstanding on my part? Thanks!
