Posted on 03/16/2013 5:13:26 AM PDT by massmike
Erica Moore of Forest Hill says she was laying in bed one night when she decided to walk-around her house to check on her kids. She found the door to her 15-year-old sons bedroom shut. When she opened it, she got quite a surprise to see her son wasnt alone her teenage male cousin was in the room with him.
My cousin at the time he was 18. My son he was 15 and I had walked in the room on [my cousin] giving oral sex to my son and I started whooping my son, and Im the one who got in trouble as a result of me whooping him, she said. When I walked in I saw my son, it was just disgusting to me, the way he was looking and my cousin was looking, and my cousin immediately ran out the door. And Im just like what the?!? You know, is you serious? So that was my reaction because it disgusted me.
Moore admits that she struck her son with an electrical cord because its a form of discipline she was taught, and because she doesnt believe in homosexuality.
The police department told me that it was consensual, but they was committing a homosexual act in my house and we are totally against that. So I whooped my son and about three or four months later they came and arrested me for abuse, she recalled.

Hell, in the old days, the beating of the son would have been closely followed by the chasing down of the cousin and shooting him. Child molesters should not be tolerated.
Good for her.
This is entirely separate from any presumed child abuse under the law for possibly excessive punishment applied by the mother to her son as a result of the above.
In my opinion, that electrical cord could have been put to much better use in several other ways, but applied to her nephew who is really the worst of the lot, not that any of the three are pure as the driven snow, and the law concurs if the incident transpired as described.
It will in interesting, in a morbid sort of way, to see what happens if the greater media and/or the punditry seize upon this story.
Meaning, I wonder how much the "mom beats son for being gay" theme will be played up, and the "mom catches 18 year old nephew performing an incestuous act on her 15 year old son" element will be muted.
That's what I was thinking. What happened to 15 will get you 30? Or is that not the law there?
The molester is gay, and some animals are more equal than others.
Now think about this. This was triggered by the trip to the doctor. This type of insanity is going to be much much worse if ObamaCare is implemented. This happened in Texas of all places. If this goes to court, there is no jury that will convict this worman. But remember, this past week about the incident in CA where a wife is admitted to a Psyc Hospital for 2 days and the state comes and takes away both her and her husbands handguns. Triggered by a nurses notes. No trial, no court hearing, no defense, no charges; but 9 armed men from CA AG's office confiscated their guns. Look where we are going.
The molester was 18. Does he qualify as an adult? If so, he is guilty of statutory rape?
In my opinion, probably.
I'm not aware of a single state with age of consent that low.
Bill Clinton proved that oral copulation is not sex. I'm sure the 18 year old will use the defense of the President of the United States as a valid answer. It certainly worked for that idiot.
If the woman's 18 year old cousin had of been a female it would have been called child molesting.
But since its a queer act its called consensual.
There is an ilk of humans that beats kids with electrical cords and I can tell you it ain't pretty. This situation is just plain twisted. There is also commonplace incest, more than you could even imagine. It is plain to me she suspected something was amiss because she already had the electrical cord in her hand, so does she typically carry one or what? She could have called the cops or whipped the 18 year old, that would have been more acceptable.
Lady your son is being molested and you beat HIM? Wrong person to be beating.
Between an 18-year-old and a 15-year-old?
As pointed out, if 18 yo was male and 15 yo female the 'We can't do ANYTHING because it was consensual would NOT have been uttered'...Maybe later, in court, but the desk Sgt or beat cop would never have thought of it.
Mom always walk around - inspecting - the house in middle of night with a handy electric cord?
What does the damage, the cord or lamp/TV/radio or whatever the cord is attached to?
If she would have left the scene and retrieved a weapon, premeditated would have been thought - or at least heavily considered - (Maybe NOT in Texas)
She couldn't have thought the 'act' ALL that disgusting if she didn't get upset till she saw her son was involved.
Of course, the 18 yo may be the 'strange uncle/cousin' that when he comes to visit Dad or another 'uncle' may spend a lot of time watching Junior when 'unk' around BUT you open the can of whupp ass on the DOER especially if he such activity is his 'trademark'.
Back in the 'day' the Military considered BOTH parties guilty if caught in the act, usually resulting in discharge (groan) and BRIG time for both - the only mitigating circumstance would be one may have been coerced by a Senior, but the local command would push BOTH parties to the next 'convening authority'.... Local commands 'job' was to get both out of area ASAP.
Yes, I remember his statement.
But because BC said it did not make it law.
He was impeached by the House.
And whether you call it statutory rape or molestation, it is an act of an adult on a minor. That carries a sex offender tag.
I think the cousin is in deep trouble.
The mom will probably never be tried for abuse, because the prosecution knows that the jury will not convict her.
The Clinton Administration was one of the worst things to ever happen in the history of our nation. To forever require young children to read and be taught about his antics in their history classes is a blight on our nation.
And yet. If this was a teacher giving oral sex to this 15 year old, everyone at FR would think it was a big joke and say tbe kid should be happy for getting some action. Where are the posts calling for pictures of the 18 year old to see how " hot" he is before declaring him guilty?
I wanna know why we need to keep trusting cops. 18, 15, sounds close to statutory rape to me.
Homosexuals aren't born.... they're created....
My cousin at the time he was 18. My son he was 15 and I had walked in the room on [my cousin] giving oral sex to my son... The police department told me that it was consensual...The Pedophile Agenda *is* the Homosexual Agenda.
In gay the activist sponsored social and education events for "teens", they include boys aged 13-19. The older ones sexually groom the younger ones.
To forever require young children to read and be taught about his antics in their history classes is a blight on our nation.
Not to worry. I am sure they will not be taught the truth, at all. Probably their history books just say that Clinton was hounded by the Republicans just because he was a good guy who loved minorities, whom the Pubs just want to harm with their mean tax cuts.
The 18-year-old, (currently old enough to hold a rifle for his country), should have been arrested for stat rape and sodomy.
A time ago, when pussification was not even an idea, the mama's boy's friends, would have told the boy all about how they felt, in no uncertain terms or manners, and yes, the 18 y.o. would not have seen too many lights of day, or 'just done gone skipped off the planet somewhere'.
What illiterate wrote this headline?
"Good for her."
What an ass.
You don't whip people with electrical cords. That is assault.
She is within her rights to discipline her 15 year old but she has no right to do so in a way that is likely to cause injury.
BOTH of the guys needed to be beaten!! OMG! That poor woman.
You dont whip people with electrical cords. That is assault.
Look at the language being used on this thread...'whip', 'beat'...was this an extension cord? She struck a fifteen year-old with an extension cord? Oh, my. I got my butt tanned with belts, extension cords, and whatever when I was a teen...I deserved it, and lived to tell about it. No wonder we have generations of feral children out of control in this country. Maybe Mom should have given him a 'time out'.
Her mistake was in not having the 18 year old arrested for child molestation. There is no "consensual" anything with statutory rape.
However, Texas is a little different:
"According to Texas law, anyone can legally have sex. However, if the younger person in the relationship is less than seventeen years old and the older person is more than three years older than the younger person, the older partner has committed an offense."
Thus, the cousin, at 18 years, would likely get away with it. Thus, if she wanted to take out her hostilities, it should have been with the cousin. The 15 year old can be dealt with later.
In this case, probably her best bet would be to "out" the cousin as not just a homosexual, but as a predator. Since he had likely done this before with other underage boys, *that* might get him arrested. Otherwise, it would be fair warning to his peers that he was a pervert, and *they* might be less than sympathetic.
As far as the 15 year old goes, I would hunt up a stern, religious, reeducation camp, and put him in it as a charity case. Since he is a minor, and legally something of a chattel to his parent or parents, she could do this legally, and he could not get out until he had turned 18.
Texas Statute 21.11
(b) It is an affirmative defense to prosecution under this section that the actor:
(1) was not more than three years older than the victim and of the opposite sex;
And the last qualifier would not stand up under Lawrence v. Texas.
So you were beat with an electrical cord and think it is just fine and dandy. Well, as long as you live to tell about it, right? How about holding a kids hand on a hot burner? I mean after all, it's ok if the kid lives to tell about it, right?
Well guess what? It isn't. Only stupid people who can't figure out appropriate and effective methods of teaching and disciplining their kids resort to this kind of crap.
If this idiot can't handle a 15 year old without inflicting injury she shouldn't have ever had kids.
Oh, and nice try including the part about where she "doesn't believe in homosexuality".
I saw right through that.
You are trying to imply that I am pro homo because I object to worthless trash injuring teenage kids by whipping them with electrical cords.
You are pathetic.
What the hell is wrong with you??? You didn't see thru squat...I didn't say that...I was quoting the article.
As for equating getting 'struck with an electrical cord' with putting a kid's hand on a hot burner? Wow.
"Im not aware of a single state with age of consent that low."
Sadly, In Ohio the age of consent is 13...
'Is you serious?'
I was wondering what race these people were and now I know.
I was thinking the same thing. It was the cousin who should have been hit.

There are 31 million Internet users, and new e-commerce sites are emerging.
Pakistan is considered a "frontier market," in that it serves as gateway to land-locked economies, including Central Asia, parts of Russia and northwestern China. In this respect it's similar to Nigeria and Bulgaria. In these economies businesses face many local challenges and risk but can achieve high return on their investments. For example, Pakistani logistics companies can reach into these markets that are not easy to enter for international firms. And the growth of the Internet means e-commerce firms operating in Pakistan have the opportunity to sell into markets adjacent to Pakistan.
In Pakistan itself, there are 31 million Internet users, of whom 15 million browse through mobile devices, according to the Pakistan Telecom Authority. There are 9 million Facebook users, including 1.1 million who have joined in the last six months, Facebook says. Pakistan's 125 million active mobile device users, out of population of 190 million, give it the fifth-largest base of mobile phone users in Asia, says the Pakistan Telecom Authority. Pakistan's market size and large online population lay a strong foundation for Internet retailing.
Internet retailing is not new in Pakistan. It started in late 1997 with brands like Liberty Books and Gift Express, with the first payment gateway provided by Citibank and e-store engineered by my company, The Cyber Bridge. Since then, several stores have been set up in various categories, including gifts, books, music, movies, consumer electronics, computers, clothing and footwear. Classified site Craigslist and daily-deals site Groupon of the United States are replicated by OLX and DealsToday to fuel online shopping in Pakistan. Earlier this year, Kaymu launched as an online marketplace where small retailers can sell online. It is funded by Rocket Internet, a German company that specializes in investing in e-commerce companies. Rocket Internet has also invested in other Pakistani web sites, including daraz.pk, foodpanda.pk, carmudi.pk, lamudi.pk and easytaxi.pk. Another sign of the growth of online retailing in the country is the launch in 2007 of BlueEx courier, which delivers items to consumers and accepts cash on delivery, which has become a prime form of Internet payments.
There is no formal estimate on online retail sales in Pakistan. That is because most payments are settled through cash on delivery or third-party payment gateways in the case of international sales by ethnic clothing retailers and gift shops. Internet retailers, such as women's traditional clothing manufacturer GulAhmed, Sentiments by TCS and Tohfay, primarily cater to the international market, selling to Pakistanis living abroad who buy ethnic apparel for themselves or send gifts to loved ones back at home.
Pakistan has no barriers for international retailers selling their products and services online. U.S.-based Amazon.com Inc. ships items to Pakistan. And U.S. retailers like Macy's Inc. and J.C. Penny Co. Inc. let visitors to their web sites choose Pakistan as the country of delivery and price items in Pakistani rupees; international fulfillment provider Borderfree, formerly known as FiftyOne Global ECommerce, delivers items to Pakistan for those two retail chains.
Unlike in North America where most online consumers pay with credit and debit cards, Pakistani consumers prefer to pay through online banking or through cash on delivery. There is only one domestic payment gateway facilitated by UBL (United Bank Ltd), which processes Visa and MasterCard transactions.
Online stores focusing on selling products to overseas buyers generally opt for third-party gateways, such as 2CheckOut, Payza and Skrill for international sales. For local sales, options include online bank transfer, branchless banking (mobile network accept payments on behalf of banks, mostly from consumers without bank accounts) and mobile transfer. No major cases of fraudulent activity have emerged in Internet Retailing since it commenced in 1997.
Pakistan is primarily a consumer economy as compare to other economies which are based on manufacturing, tourism and form of economics. A large percentage of the country's gross domestic product is spent on consumption, and thus consumer retail is a growing sector in Pakistan. Pakistan imports $40 billion worth of goods each year, exports only $24.6 billion and makes up the differences from remittances from Pakistanis living abroad of $13.2 billion annually. The average Pakistani consumer is likely to purchase goods and services, construct housing and so on. Wholesale and retail sectors account for 17.1% of Pakistan's economy, according to the State Bank of Pakistan.
Although Pakistan has lots of opportunities in the Internet retail market, it will take time, effort and practice to create a successful and long-lasting Internet retailing model similar to those in other digital economies.

ABC mixes equal parts of scientific mumbo-jumbo with soapy family affairs.
Chalk it up to the networks' realization that they need to offer at least some original summer fare, but disaster comes rocketing back to primetime in a pair of two-parters, ABC's "Impact" and NBC's upcoming "Meteor." The Alphabet web gets there first with this "Armageddon"-esque scenario about a meteor strike sending the moon orbiting toward Earth, mixing equal parts of scientific mumbo-jumbo with soapy family affairs. Give ABC credit: Although this is mostly silliness, using the NBA Finals to launch a guy-oriented end-of-the-world epic certainly isn't the worst idea the network has had lately.Granted, increasingly jingoistic Republicans probably won't warm to the "We're all in this together" tone of this international co-production, in which scientists and the U.S. government unite to try to save the world from annihilation. A widowed dad, Alex Kittner (David James Elliott) is one of the experts drafted by government liaison Maddie Rhodes (Natasha Henstridge) after the lunar impact, which triggers a weird array of electromagnetic and gravitational anomalies. How weird? Put it this way: Cars shoot into the air, and when Alex and Maddie have dinner, sparks literally fly. Presumably thanks to the shared production auspices, the U.S. contingent isn't alone. It's joined by a German scientist (Benjamin Sadler) who diagnoses the crisis' cause, which doesn't earn him much latitude from his fiancee (Florentine Lahme), who seems to think this egghead is inflating the threat to screw up their wedding. Meanwhile, Alex ends up having to rely on his crusty shut-in of a father-in-law (James Cromwell) to supervise the professor's annoying kids. Michael Vickerman's script draws artfully enough from past sources that it's fairly easy to spackle in the lunar-landscape-sized holes in the story. Alas, papering over the preachy "one world" moments — as the brink of extermination brings out humanity's best — proves somewhat more challenging. Still, director Michael J. Rohl and his cast — including Steven Culp as a U.S. president dealt an even worse hand than Obama — tackle the increasingly preposterous gobbledygook with admirable conviction. With Michael Richard Plowman's score working overtime, the suspense builds as to whether noble sacrifice will become necessary in order to save mankind. (Where's Bruce Willis when you need him?) Until then, the movie proves weakest in creating relationships for the key characters, including Maddie's ethically challenged struggling journalist (as if there's another kind) ex-husband. "Start thinking beyond what we believe is possible," Alex counsels early on regarding the threat. Actually, try not thinking at all, and you'll be better prepared to sit back and be rocked by this shallow "Impact."

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
The Emery County Commissioners approved the planning and zoning changes to the subdivision ordinance which will allow someone to build on two acres of land in the county. The ordinance comes with many requirements to allow this to be done. This new ordinance, Article 13, hopes to facilitate the orderly development of the county.
Mike McCandless, planning and zoning administrator for Emery County said the passing of this ordinance has been the culmination of five years of work by the planning and zoning commission. He believes the ordinance has built in protections to allow for controlled growth in the county. Each lot must have county or state road frontage. The services in the county are delivered along existing county roads. "Using existing roads makes sense because this is where the utilities already exist. Growth will be limited to where available services exist."
The cities have been encouraged to annex land into the city before improvements are made to lots near the city. In doing so, this would make the cities responsible for putting these services into the newly annexed area. In other areas around Utah, a developer will develop the land and be responsible for all the services at their expense and then come to the city and ask for annexation after this preparatory work has been completed. This method removes the responsibility from the city to provide services to developing areas.
At the commission meeting where the subdivision ordinance was approved, it was brought up the cities were being urged to place a moratorium on all water connections outside the cities. This will cause problems for those people wishing to build on their two acres. The county commissioners held a public hearing at the meeting and many residents spoke in favor of the subdivision ordinance and the Castle Valley Special Service District spoke against the change to two acres. Amber Barnes said she is in favor of the change to two acres because she has been unable to find someone willing to sell a lot in Ferron. "I want to stay in Ferron, but no one is willing to sell," said Barnes. "I would like it to change to give more opportunity to stay in Ferron."
Ron Barney spoke and said his granddaughter has been to 11 different individuals to buy a lot. She was turned down each time. Some people are saving their land for oil and gas development. "I don't see a problem with two acre lots. We need a place for kids to live. We are exporting our greatest asset our youth," said Barney.
Darrel Leamaster, manager of the Castle Valley Special Service District presented two letters of opposition to the subdivision ordinance to the commission. The administrative control board of the CVSSD is opposed to the two acre change. The 10 acre rule encourages growth in the cities. Leamaster acknowledged the problem cities are having with people unwilling to sell available lots and the cities are working on this. The district fears that growth will occur in a doughnut shape around the cities if the ordinance goes into effect, because that's where the services are. Leamaster said in the February meeting of the CVSSD they voted to no longer approve hookups outside of the cities. Connections outside the cities create problems in maintenance for lines, installations or repairs. "The district can avoid those problems by not selling the connections. We will honor all current agreements and easements," said Leamaster. Leamaster encouraged the commission not to pass the ordinance.
The cities have a long history of providing water beyond the boundaries of the cities. Individual water users inside the county and outside the cities are responsible for expenses involved in these connections. McCandless pointed out that even people within the cities are responsible for their own lines behind the meter. People are required to repair their own water lines at their own expense.
In the northern end of the county North Emery Water provides the culinary water service to county residents. As a result property owners around Huntington, Cleveland, Elmo and in Lawrence would not be effected by a moritorium by CVSSD. The board of North Emery water users is supportive of the new ordinance.
Darrell Gardner also spoke against the change to two acres. He said he owns several acres of property around Cleveland and Orangeville and enjoys the rural life. He doesn't like the idea of urbanization. He has a cattle operation and doesn't want urban people moving in and telling him what to do. Gardner also worries about the property values in the county going up and not being able to afford higher taxes.
When the ordinance was being discussed, Commissioner Kofford compared it to a chess game; "It's hard to sit here and try to push a square peg into a round hole. From the comments we've heard one family says they are for it and we have continually heard for years how that 10 acre rule needs to be changed to two acres. So we are passing that ordinance to allow building on two acres lots, but now these people will go to the city and the city will say there is a moratorium on water connections. The county needs to break this log jam. Some people want to stay rural but they want the same services. Our tax base has eroded from the days when the power plants were first built. We need new growth. We can't continue to provide the same services, without growth and an increased tax base. How do we break the cycle," said Kofford.
He said the taxes in the county are as high as they can go. The planning and zoning commission is in favor of the change from 10 acres down to two acre lots. Several people on the board have been working on this ordinance for years at the insistence of county residents. "I apologize to the people of Emery County as we go to two acres." Kofford said it will cause heartache because now people will have the land and they will be told they can't get a water connection.
Sheriff LaMar Guymon also sits on the commission board as a non-voting member. He said he can't pick a side on the issue, but if someone has a 10 acre lot now, then they can control what happens around them for 10 acres. "It's petty for the cities to shut it off now and say nobody else can, (have a water connection). This ordinance gives an orderly way to grow not controlled by government. The growth is around the cities now. If someone wants to build a house now, they can get the ground, but can't get the water. If I have a 100 acres I can control what's around me," said Guymon.
Bill Dellos is a member of the planning and zoning commission, he said at one of their meetings they learned that the services of Orangeville are only operating at 40-50 percent of capacity. This leaves a lot of room for growth. "I love this county and want to see it grow," said Dellos.
Leamaster spoke again saying he doesn't want to be misunderstood. The cities want growth. They want the land to be annexed into the city first and then built upon. "Opening growth up to everywhere would be chaotic. We are not opposed to growth," said Leamaster.
All of the commissioners voted for the approval of the two acre subdivision ordinance.
McCandless said a lot of money has been spent in the county since the 10 acre ordinance came into effect in 1979. There are many more paved roads in the county now than at that time. At that time the infrastructure wasn't as far reaching as it is now. The ordinances have not kept up with the growth in the county. The county is bound by its laws and ordinances. The planning and zoning commission is obligated to review change and see how it meets the goals for the county's general plan. McCandless feels the new subdivision ordinance will work to preserve rural lifestyles. Now farmland will not have to be taken out of production just to provide 10 acres so a landowner's family will have a place to build. Two acres can be used for a home and the other eight acres can remain under cultivation.
McCandless was impressed the commissioners held another public hearing on the zoning issue. The planning and zoning held a public hearing last year, which was the only one legally required. McCandless said the county has experienced record house building the last two years. Forty-50 new houses have been built countywide. "This is a positive opportunity for new growth. These subdivisions will have a more intense review than the 10 acre ordinance. A public hearing will be held on each one," said McCandless.
The ordinance will implement the county's major street plan. The ordinance will facilitate the orderly transfer of the ownership of building sites in a manner consistent with state law. The ordinance will facilitate the provision of adequate water, sewer, drainage, utilities, fire protection and other services to developing areas of the county. The ordinance will establish the rights, duties and responsibilities of subdividers with respect to the development of land within the county.
The new ordinance puts forth the following minimum requirements in order to be considered a minor subdivision. Minor subdivisions shall be allowed only within the A-1 zone in Emery County. Not more than five lots may be created. Each lot must contain at least two acres. Meets and bounds are acceptable legal descriptions for minor subdivisions, so long as they have been provided by a certified surveyor and a record of survey is filed in accordance with UCA 17-271-605(2)(6); however plats and plat maps are acceptable and preferred.
The division does not result in remnant land, land that cannot be developed due to size set backs, etc. that did not previously exist.
Minor subdivisions do not require addition of infrastructure above and beyond that which is available generally in the surrounding properties, curb, gutter sidewalk would only be required if the adjoining properties have those amenities at the time of application.
The developer may present a development plan that upon approval by the land use authority, allows for staged development-lots may be developed individually, in groups or all at once, so long as the plan and the accompanying schedule is met.
Each lot shall have the required frontage on an improved public street, county road, or public highway as set forth in this ordinance. Each lot shall meet all applicable cross section and construction standards as set forth in this ordinance.
Concerning streets and roads- While gravel roads are an acceptable construction medium for the surface of streets and roads, all streets and roads shall be improved in conformance with the applicable cross-section and construction standards as adopted by the county commission. Residential minor roads constructed within the subdivision shall have a right of way width of not less than 60 feet. Streets and roads are defined as such if the roadway serves three or more lots in a subdivision.
Driveway access-The minimum width of a driveway shall be 12 feet. The maximum grade of a driveway shall not exceed 10 percent. Twelve percent grades may be allowed for up to but not to exceed 250 lineal feet. Any driveway longer than 300 feet, shall have either a designated turn around area large enough for a 40 foot emergency vehicle to make a complete turn, or shall have 24 feet wide passing areas, at least 60 feet in length every 500 feet. A driveway is defined as such if it serves two or less lots within a subdivision.
This change in the subdivision ordinance will have no effect on the 10 acre building rules. Anyone wishing to build on 10 acres will still have to meet the requirements of that existing ordinance. The change only affects proposed lots smaller than 10 acres.

To my delight when we returned home from vacation I found a couple of letters in my mailbox from the North Carolina State Archives. Woohoo! I love getting genealogy stuff in the mail. Anyway, I recently had sent in a request for a copies of the marriage certificate for my 2nd great grandparents, Thomas Duke Harrison and Mary J. Williams and some other marriage records for other ancestors. Here is the marriage certificate for T. D. Harrison and Mary J. Williams.
No. 97 Marriage License
To any Ordained Minister of any Religious Denomination, or to any Justice of the Peace, for New Hanover County:
Mr. T. D. Harrison having applied to me for a license for the marriage of Mr. T. D. Harrison of New Hanover County aged 31 years, color Dark the son of T. D. and Sophia Harrison living at both dead and Miss Mary J Williams of Wilmington NC aged 19 years, color Dark daughter of John and Betsy Williams
living at --both dead
It appearing that M____________________________________________
of the parties ________under eighteen years of age, and written consent of ____________________
to the proposed marriage having deen duly filled with me in accordance with Sec. 6 of An Act of the General Assembly of the State of North Carolina, entitled "An Act of Marriages, Marriage Settlements and the Contracts of Married Women," ratified the 12th day of February 1872 and there being no legal impediment known to me,
You Are Hereby Authorized, Within One Year Of The Date Hereof, To Celebrate The Proposed Marriage At Any place within the county of New Hanover.
You are required, within two months after you shall have celebrated the proposed marriage, to return this license to me, at my office with the blanks therein filled according to the facts, under penalty of forfeiting Two Hundred Dollars to the use of any person who shall sue for the same.
Issued this 13 day of June 1887
J. E. Sampson
Register of Deeds for New Hanover County
Fee, $2.00
Page 2
To be filled up and signed by the Minister or officer celebrating the marriage and also to be signed by one or more witnesses present at the marriage, who will add to their names their place of residence.
I, Rev S King, a (unsure of word) minister colored of have united in matrimony Mr T D Harrison and Miss Mary J Williams the parties licensed on the 14 day of June 1887 at the house of Mr J W Wilyam in Wilmington NC according to law.
Witnesses Present:
Name M. Balay Wilyam Residence Wilmington
Name Hanah Witfell Residence Wilmington
Name John W. Wilyam Residence Wilmington
Name Frank Smith Residence Wilmington
Now this certificate I have found to be rather intriguing for several reasons. Prior to receiving this certificate the only information I knew about the parents of Thomas and Mary was what was found on their death certificates. According to his death certificate, Thomas Duke Harrison's parents were a Simon D. Harrison of New Bern, NC and Sophia Boyd of Beaufort, NC. Thomas's wife Mary was the informant on the document, so I felt fairly confident about the information she reported. So it was a bit of a surprise to see on the marriage certificate that his father's name was listed as T. D. Harrison, not Simon D. Harrison. Perhaps this was an error. On Mary J. Williams's death certificate it reads that her parents were a John and Elizabeth Williams both from Wilmington so that seems to match up since Betsy is a common nickname for Elizabeth. Isn't it always the case that when you receive more information it only leads to more questions? Were my 3rd great grandparents ever officially married somewhere or was their union a common law union? Was my 3rd great grandfather's name Simon or was it in fact T. D. or Thomas Duke just like his son? Who are the people listed as witnesses? Looks I have some more digging to do.

"Love these shoes got many compliments ! I do need to warn anyone with a wide foot you will need to break them in alittle but they will stretch. I tried on a larger size and it was too big in the back and also the store I tried the larger size at was a return which was very stretched out and the color will wear out. Not sure how the last person takes care of her shoe. For most shoe lovers like myself we like our stuff to last and keep them in clear cases to keep the dust out and keep the sun from fading colored shoes."

Fact file: Chevrolet Orlando show car
Orlando show car signals entry into new segment for Chevrolet
- New addition to the Chevrolet range in 2011
- Adaptable seven-seater family van with flat load floor configuration
- Latest-generation 2.0-liter turbo diesel power
The Orlando show car sets the scene for Chevrolet's new seven-seater family van that will extend Chevrolet's model range in the first half of 2011. The production version of the Orlando had its world premiere at the 2010 Paris Motor Show.
Based on the Cruze compact sedan, the Orlando show car carries Chevrolet's signature design language into a new vehicle segment. The Chevrolet Orlando cuts a distinctive silhouette, replacing conventional monocab proportions with a more defined contrast between the hood and windshield lines. With flared fenders instead of a flat side-body, Orlando has a muscular stance, yet it offers dynamic ride and handling, good fuel efficiency and easy entry thanks to its architecture.
Inside, the five-door Orlando show car is designed to meet the needs of families and those who require plenty of seating capacity with adaptable, theater-style seating in three rows that comfortably accommodate up to seven occupants. Whenever load carrying becomes a priority, the spacious cabin can be quickly transformed into a large cargo area. A generous 2,760 mm wheelbase and wide front and rear tracks provide Orlando with outstanding interior roominess.
Chevrolet's latest-generation 2.0-liter turbo diesel, a powerful and efficient powertrain, develops 150 hp/110 kW and 320 Nm of torque.
Status: October 2010

Do you include part names on your PCB?
Do you use text tool to add descriptions to your board instead of using part names?
How do you not export those names to the Gerber file?
I'll email the persons in charge next time to not include Names layers in their silk screen.
BTW, I just checked on EAGLE, there are two things I can change, Name, and value. If you're using EAGLE, you would use both, right, like Name=R1, Value=2K.
I can't find a way to reposition names
If I design a package and choose the appropriate layer for ">name" it will show up in board view in layer tNames. But if I don't include ">name" in my package, the name will NOT show up in the board view at all. Same thing goes with symbol and schematic view. Did I get it right this time?
If I attempt to change it, EAGLE asks me "There is no user-definable value, do you want to change anyway?" Can I indicate somewhere in the library that there IS a user-definable value, like a resistor value? Thanks.

text: Salt and Sodium Salt is a mineral that is composed primarily of sodium and chloride. It is the world's oldest food additive and has played a key role in food safety and preservation for thousands of years by inhibiting the growth of microorganisms that cause spoilage. Today, refrigeration, modern canning and other food processing techniques have made this once essential preservative role of salt largely superfluous. Why is Sodium Important? Sodium is an essential nutrient as it is required by the body to perform a variety of essential functions. Sodium plays an important role in maintaining the body's fluid balance and is essential for muscles and nerves to function properly. Without it, the body would not be able to maintain adequate water and mineral balance, the absorption of major nutrients would be impaired and nerves and muscles would cease to function. Too Much Sodium While sodium is an essential nutrient, too much sodium in the body is bad for overall health. Diets that are high in sodium are major causes of high blood pressure and pre–hypertension, both of which significantly increase the risk of heart attack and stroke. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), research shows that a dose–dependent relationship exists between high sodium intake and elevated blood pressure. When sodium intake is reduced, blood pressure begins decreasing for most people within a few days to weeks. Recommended Intake In February of 2004, the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine (IOM) released the Dietary Reference Intakes for Water, Potassium, Sodium, Chloride and Sulfate report. The report stated that a Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for sodium could not be derived. Instead, an Adequate Intake (AI) was provided which recommended 1,500 mg of sodium per day for young adults and even less for individuals aged 50 and over. The report set a tolerable Upper Limit (UL) for sodium at 2,300 mg per day. According to a recent report by the Institute of Medicine (IOM), however, Americans consume an average of more than 3,400 mg of sodium per day, an amount which far exceeds the recommended sodium intakes and the UL. As this estimate is from self–reported intakes and does not include any salt added at home, actual intakes may be much higher. In its Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2005 publication, the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee (DGAC) recommended a daily sodium intake of less than 2,300 mg per day for the general adult population and a daily sodium intake of 1,500 mg per day for hypertensive individuals, African–Americans and middle–aged–or–older adults. As these latter groups together now comprise nearly 70 percent of the U.S. adult population, the 2010 DGAC has recommended that the daily sodium intake goal be reduced to 1,500 mg per day for the general population. Sources of Salt Since the body cannot create sodium, individuals rely on food to ensure adequate intake. In most modern cultures, about 12 percent of dietary sodium intake comes naturally from whole unprocessed foods, 11 percent comes in the form of salt that is added during cooking or during a meal at home and the remaining 77 percent comes in the form of salt that is added to processed foods and meals consumed away from the home. Increased salt consumption in the U.S. has been shaped in part by changes in eating habits as individuals consume more processed foods, dine out more frequently and prepare fewer meals from basic, raw ingredients at home. Due to these trends, individuals have gradually grown accustomed to saltier foods as the amount of salt in the nation's food supply has increased over time. According to the IOM, however, research indicates that this trend can be reversed. Through subtle reductions over time, individual tastes can be 'reset' to prefer less salty flavor. A main obstacle to salt reduction is the fact that most sodium is well–hidden in packaged foods, processed foods and restaurant foods. Limiting it, therefore, can often be difficult and may result in frustration for those whose try. Benefits of Reducing Salt Intake An article published in the February 18, 2010 New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) titled "Projected Effect of Dietary Salt Reductions on Future Cardiovascular Disease" reported that a reduction in dietary salt intake of 3 grams per day (1/2 a teaspoon of salt) would result in substantial reductions in the incidence of coronary heart disease, stroke and death. The article projected that there would be a reduction in the annual number of new cases of Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) by between 60,000 and 120,000, a reduction in new cases of stroke by between 32,000 and 66,000 and a reduction in new cases of myocardial infarction (heart attack) by between 54,000 and 99,000. A reduction of between 44,000 and 92,000 was also projected for the annual number of deaths from any cause. According to the article, all segments of the population would benefit, with African–Americans benefiting proportionately more, women benefiting particularly from stroke reduction, older adults benefiting from reductions in CHD events and younger adults benefiting from lower mortality rates. Additionally, the article stated that the cardiovascular benefits of reduced salt intake would be on par with the benefits of population–wide reductions in tobacco use, obesity and cholesterol levels. The study was conducted by scientists at University of California San Francisco, Stanford University Medical Center and Columbia University Medical Center. The article arrives at a time when health authorities at federal, state and municipal levels are considering policies that would pressure food companies to reduce salt in processed foods — considered to be the source of much of the salt that Americans consume. Recently, the IOM issued a report which outlined strategies to reduce sodium consumption to levels recommended by the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. The report indicated that, despite efforts to reduce sodium intake in the U.S. for more than 40 years, the efforts have been unsuccessful because they were not broad enough in scope to fully address the public health problem of excessive sodium intake. The IOM believes that the level of sodium to which consumers are exposed on a daily basis from processed and restaurant foods must be reduced. The IOM also made a series of recommendations, many of which involved regulatory actions to gradually lower the sodium content of the food supply. Earlier in the year, New York City announced an initiative to urge food manufacturers and restaurant chains to reduce salt in their products by 25 percent over the next five years. According to an author of the NEJM study, Kirsten Bibbins–Domingo, an associate professor of medicine and epidemiology at The University of California, San Francisco, the state of California is considering setting salt limits on foods that the state purchases for schools, prisons and other public institutions. How to Cut Back on SodiumEliminating the salt added during cooking and meals at home will only reduce sodium intake by 11 percent and will not help the average American reach the recommended daily intake. Knowing where to look for sodium content in foods and understanding how to effectively reduce intake is important. Sodium is present in additives such as monosodium glutamate (a flavor enhancer), sodium saccharin (a sweetener), sodium nitrite (a preservative), sodium ascorbate (an antioxidant), sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and in some medicinal products such as antacids. Most sodium in the average diet, however, comes from salt. Many canned and frozen foods contain 1,000 mg or more of sodium in an eight–ounce serving. Consumers must read food labels very carefully to determine the sodium content of food (which can vary by several hundreds of milligrams among similar food items) and select lower–sodium products. This diligence can be difficult, however, as products that are low in sodium are often difficult to find and can be more expensive. Additionally, restaurant meals — which are not labeled — often contain 3,000 mg or more of added sodium without the consumer's knowledge. The following are suggestions for reducing daily sodium intake: At home: Limit use of sodium–laden condiments. Items such as soy sauce, lite soy sauce, tamari, salad dressings, sauces, dips, ketchup, mustard and relish all can contain high levels of sodium. Make recipes from scratch. Avoid salting food. Use spices other than salt when cooking. Examples include pepper, basil, thyme, garlic and other salt–free spice mixes (i.e., Mrs. Dash). Use herbs, spices and other flavorings to enhance foods. Fresh or dried herbs, spices, zest from citrus fruit and fruit juices can all enhance meals. Use salt substitutes wisely. Some salt substitutes or light salts contain a mixture of table salt and other compounds. Many salt substitutes contain potassium chloride. Although potassium can lessen some of the problems from excess sodium, too much potassium can be harmful among individuals with kidney problems or individuals who take medications for congestive heart failure or high blood pressure. When Eating Out: Ask that food be prepared without adding any salt and request the use of other spices instead. Most restaurants will agree to do this and will suggest alternative items as well. Since most restaurant foods already have too much sodium, limit or avoid adding any additional salt at the table. When Shopping: When buying processed foods in a supermarket, select ones that are the lowest in sodium. The simplest method for doing this is to use the 1:1 guideline. Look for products in which the amount of sodium in milligrams (mg) per serving is less than or equal to the number of calories per serving. For example, if a product has 100 calories per serving, it should have no more than 100 milligrams of sodium per serving. While it will be difficult to find many products that meet this guideline, the closer that a product comes to meeting it, the better. Using this guideline will also help identify the product with less sodium when choosing between two similar products. Purchase and consume more fresh foods and fewer processed foods. Fruits, vegetables, starchy vegetables, intact whole grains and legumes are the foods that are the lowest in sodium. They are also rich sources of many other nutrients that are important in maintaining healthy blood pressure and overall good health. Avoid processed meats, fresh and frozen poultry or meat that has been injected with a sodium–containing solution. Look on the label or ask the butcher. Remember that sodium chloride is sodium chloride and it does not matter if it is in sea salt or table salt form; they both have the same basic nutritional value. Sea salt, however, is often marketed as a healthier, more natural alternative. The real differences between sea salt and table salt are in their taste, texture and processing — not their chemical makeup. Choosing to use sea salt as the source of sodium intake is a personal preference, but it is not any healthier or safer than table salt. Most Americans consume more than double the amount of their daily recommended level of sodium. In the U.S., 16 million men and women have heart disease and 5.8 million are estimated to have had a stroke. These ailments are the first and third–leading causes of death in the U.S. It is important for individuals to know their recommended daily sodium limit and take action to reduce sodium intake. Individuals who do so will benefit from improved blood pressure and a reduction in the risk of developing other serious health problems.

Question: "What are tribulation saints?"
Answer: During the tribulation, Satan—the great counterfeiter—will introduce his own man—a man of lawlessness and a man of perdition (Daniel 11:36-39) who will seemingly lead the world into time of peace and prosperity. This man is Antichrist. He will accomplish, at least for a season, what no other ruler has managed to accomplish—global unity. He will come to power at the beginning of the tribulation (2 Thessalonians 2:3-4) and establish himself as a true world ruler. During the first half of Antichrist's seven-year reign, the inhabitants of Earth will live in relative harmony. And literally billions of misguided people will worship him as their god and savior. Not only will Antichrist accept this worship, he will demand the people's worship! He will exact the allegiance of all (Revelation 13:16). Those who refuse to worship Antichrist face death.
In this dark hour, however, many will come to know Christ Jesus as Savior. These are the tribulation saints who will face the wrath of Antichrist (Revelation 13:7), yet their eternal salvation is secure (Revelation 14:12-13). No one, not even Antichrist, will be able to wrench these saints from God's loving hands.
The tribulation saints will not be silent during these dark years. These Christians will continue serving their Lord Jesus Christ in the midst of their desperate surroundings. Faithful to the end, some of these Christians will die for their beliefs, but God shall reward them in this manner: "Therefore they are before the throne of God, and serve Him day and night in His temple. And He who sits on the throne will dwell among them. They shall neither hunger anymore nor thirst anymore; the sun shall not strike them, nor any heat; for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd them and lead them to living fountains of waters. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes" (Revelation 7:15-17 NKJV).
More importantly, the saints living in this time of great distress will not be forgotten by our merciful God as He pours His wrath upon a wicked earth. While unregenerate men and women face the white-hot judgment of God's righteous fury, His saints shall "have the seal of God on their foreheads" and be spared the terrible wrath that follows (Revelation 9:4).
Two such tribulation saints will serve from Jerusalem as God's mighty witnesses, "and they will prophesy one thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth. These have the power to shut heaven, so that no rain falls in the days of their prophecy; and they have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to strike the earth with all plagues, as often as they desire (Revelation 11:3,6 NKJV)." What a ministry—they will boldly preach God's truths while performing awesome miracles, and those unregenerate fools who try silencing them will be devoured by fire! So hated and despised will the preachers be, the whole world will celebrate the eventual deaths of these witnesses with gifts and merriment—but God will raise His slain witnesses back to life and carry them off to Heaven, and the entire world will see this spectacular event (Revelation 11:9).
The day of great trouble is rapidly approaching, so now is the time to ask, "Where will you be when Antichrist makes his appearance?" Will you be safe and secure in the loving hands of the Savior, or will you be fodder for Antichrist? Will King Jesus be your rescuer, or will you be one of the billions to perish when God's divinely appointed wrath is poured out upon the rebellious masses? Prophecy is tomorrow's headlines, so let no one say he or she has not been warned. The Lord Jesus is knocking at the door of your heart. Confess Him as your Lord and Savior. Come to Jesus and live.

"I so wanted this shoe to fit but as others had said it runs big and a smaller size was not available so back they had to go. I'm sure they would have been a great shoe if the fit was right."

Finally some comfy shoes
"I am one who always needs to try on the shoe before buying, until I shopped at DSW online. Had I not received an email for deals and double point rewards, I probably wouldn't have tried it. As it turns out the KlasFit Sport Slip-On shoe was as wide as I need, and comfortable due the flexible material. It is adjustable when necessary through the velcro straps and stylish to wear even with jean skirts. The various images on the website made it easier to decide if the shoe was right for me. I can see that it is a great buy, since there were few left to purchase. I am glad I dove in to my first time shopping online for shoes."

40 Sizzling Mexican and Tex-Mex Recipes
Grilled Steak Fajitas [1]
All you need is a steak, a three-ingredient marinade, a few veggies and tortillas heated right on the grill. Boom.
Sweet Potato and Black Bean Enchiladas [5]
Doctored with onion, chili powder and cocoa, canned sauce becomes a stepping-stone to something deeper.
Tres Leches Cake [9]
A Mexican standard and guaranteed backyard crowd-pleaser, our brown-sugar sheet cake is soaked in milky syrup, chilled, then topped with whipped cream and berries.
Tres Leches Cake [10]
Quick Green Chili and Chicken Enchiladas [13]
Chicken tenders, Mexican-style four-cheese blend, green chile peppers and bottled green salsa fill these easy enchiladas. Buy hot or mild chilies to suit your family's taste for heat.
Mexican Chicken Salad [17]
A tiny bit of taco seasoning mix packs big flavor in this south-of-the-border twist on traditional chicken salad. Try it in a tortilla wrap with crisp romaine lettuce.
Mexican Tacos Carnitas [21]
Slow-cook pork shoulder roast and Mexican spices to tender goodness, then serve with corn tortillas. Fresh cilantro, green onion and bottled green salsa add the finishing touches.
Mexican Mac and Cheese [25]
Pair Mexican flavors with pasta for this comfort-food casserole that includes sausage, salsa and Monterey Jack cheese.
Spicy Queso Blanco [29]
If American cheese has a purpose in life, this kicky, ultracreamy dip is it.
Spicy Queso Blanco [30]
Simple Salsa Skillet [33]
For a change in routine, substitute green salsa for red in this easy Mexican-inspired meal.
Simple Salsa Skillet [34]
Shredded Pork Tacos [37]
Root beer and chipotle peppers yield pulled pork that's sweet, spicy, smoky and marvelously tender—perfect for wrapping in a tortilla with cheese and vegetables.
Shredded Pork Tacos [38]
Rice and Red Bean Salad [41]
Chili powder and cumin flavor this hearty, nutritious Tex-Mex dish from The Spice House in Milwaukee.
Mexican Sweet Potato-Veggie Medley [45]
Create a meatless main dish in minutes by sauteing sweet potatoes, then adding canned corn and black beans. Top with a chipotle-flavor sour cream, avocado slices and fresh cilantro.
Chicken Enchiladas Adobo [49]
Wrap meat in multigrain tortillas with adobo sauce and fire-roasted tomatoes for a fresh take on chicken enchiladas.
Frozen Strawberry-Mango Margarita [53]
The fastest way to downgrade a margarita (or any drink) isn't cheap tequila; it's bottled lime juice. Dig out that squeezer and pull up your sleeves. It's worth it.
Mexican Meatball Stew [57]
This easy slow-cooker meal has just five ingredients, all packaged or canned. Toss it together in minutes in the morning, and come home to a finished meal in the afternoon.
Mexican Citrus Salad with Avocado [61]
It's not just a salad—it's a crunchy, juicy, sweet, salty, tart, buttery, nutty potluck dazzler.
Tilapia Tacos with Chipotle Cream [65]
Cumin and cinnamon spice up ordinary frozen tilapia fillets for a fragrant pan-fried fish taco filling. Just add margaritas for the full restaurant experience.
Mexican Winter Chili [69]

Mexican Polenta Pie [74]

Cumin- and orange-perfumed pulled pork tastes great topped with sliced green onion, jicama and our salsa verde.
Slow-Cooker Carnitas Tacos [78]
No-Cook Salsa Verde [79]
24-Hour Tex-Mex Salad [82]
Based on Tex-Mex ingredients, this layered salad can be prepared up to 24 hours in advance. For a fun presentation, assemble individual servings in clear jelly jars, dressing and all, then refrigerate.
No-Cook Salsa Verde [86]
The avocado in this piquant puree of lime, cilantro, onion and tomatillos gives the salsa some richness and body.
No-Cook Salsa Verde [79]
Tortilla-Black Bean Casserole [89]
Layer a tomato-bean mixture, cheese and tortillas for a casserole with south-of-the-border flavor. Let each guest top their portion with chopped tomato, shredded lettuce, green onions, olives and/or sour cream.
Pineapple-Cucumber Salsa Pico de Gallo [93]
This salsa is the zestiest way to get your five a day. For the best results, chop the fruit and vegetables evenly into a 1/4-inch dice.
Garlicky Fish Tacos [97]
Our pan-fried tilapia is drizzled with garlic butter and lime juice. We garnished ours with fresh cilantro, fresh parsley and sliced pickled red onion.
To quick pickle the onions, combine a sliced red onion with a generous pour of cider vinegar, a spoonful of brown sugar, toasted cumin seeds and a bit of salt. Let sit at room temperature for an hour before serving.
Garlicky Fish Tacos [98]
Pork and Veggie Quesadillas [101]
Some of our favorite pizza toppings—onions, mushrooms, spinach— have found their way into a quesadilla, and we love it. If you don't want to use pork, 8 ounces of any thinly sliced leftover meat will work.
Horchata [105]
Traditionally, this sweet drink is made by soaking rice (and sometimes blanched almonds, too) overnight in water, then pureeing and straining the mixture. We kept the seductively sweet, authentic taste, but skipped the drawn-out process. Our shortcut version uses purchased rice milk, and we could barely tell it apart from the real deal in side-by-side tests.
Horchata [106]
Beer-Braised Brisket Tacos [109]
Season fork-tender meat with oregano, cinnamon and coriander. Then, for an extra easy-yet-authentic flavor boost, top with cabbage, radish and queso fresco.
Pick-a-Filling Tamales [113]
Any-Fruit Agua Fresca [117]
Once you have the method down, you can improvise aguas frescas with almost any soft fruit.
Any-Fruit Agua Fresca [118]
Black Bean Salsa [121]
This salsa does double duty as a tortilla dip or a meat topper. Serve with a slotted spoon over grilled pork, smoked bratwursts or sausages, grilled chicken or salmon.
Black Bean Salsa [122]
Tortilla-Chicken Skillet Casserole [125]
Casserole + Nacho = Healthy? You better believe it. We pull it off with reduced-sodium chicken broth and a ton of diced tomatoes.
Chicken Tacos with Avocado Salsa and Ranch Taco Sauce [129]
Fresh tomatillos and jicama add authentic tartness and crunch to this made-in-minutes dinner. You can find both veggies at large supermarkets or Latin groceries.
Bonanza Bean Dip [133]
Lime- and jalapeno-spiced guacamole adds a kick to layers of refried beans, cheese, tomatoes and onions. Serve seasoned tortilla chips on the side.
Bonanza Bean Dip [134]
Avocado-Feta Salsa [137]
Fresh herbs, tomatoes and avocados create a refreshing salsa. Serve with pita or tortilla chips.
Avocado-Feta Salsa [138]
Mexican Chocolate Icebox Cookies with Dulce De Leche Filling [141]
Sandwich creamy dulce de leche filling between homemade chocolate cookies for a Mexican-inspired dessert treat.
Mexican Chocolate Icebox Cookies with Dulce De Leche Filling [142]
Light and Layered Taco Dip [145]
Ground turkey, reduced-sodium and light ingredients, and a confetti of crisp, colorful veggies make this potluck staple more nutritious than a typical layered dip—but every bit as tasty.
Light and Layered Taco Dip [146]
Mexican Black Bean Pizza [149]
Start this veggie pizza with refrigerated dough, then spread on blended black beans, spices, salsa and garlic. Top with cheese, chopped red sweet pepper and sliced green onion.
Mexican Black Bean Pizza [150]
Blackened Tomato Salsa [153]
Chipotle peppers and broiled tomatoes make for a bold, smoky challenge to standard salsa.
Blackened Tomato Salsa [154]
Fall Vegetable Fajitas [157]
Thinly slicing tougher cuts of meat, such as beef chuck eye steak, flank steak and skirt steak, ensures tenderness. Tip: Pop the steak in the freezer for about 20 minutes before slicing—it should be firm but not frozen. Hold a chef's knife at a 45-degree angle to the meat and thinly cut across the grain.
Fall Vegetable Fajitas [158]
Five-Way Margarita [161]
Switching a few ingredients in our 10-minute limeade drink creates new options. Go for Original Limeade, So Strawberry, Blue Lagoon, Pomegranate or the nonalcoholic Designated Driver.
Five-Way Margarita [162]
Turkey-Mango Quesadillas [165]
Tuck mango salsa, Gouda cheese, and chopped turkey or chicken into flour tortillas for sweet and smoky quesadillas.
Turkey-Mango Quesadillas [166]
Mexican Biscuit Casserole [169]
This taco-flavored main dish is a potluck favorite from a Fargo, North Dakota, reader. Serve it with tortilla chips so your guests can scoop and eat.
