For a fully bonded application, the topping becomes an integral part of the repaired floor slab. This requires placing the topping on a clean, rough surface for maximum bond development.Sometimes dry preparation methods such as abrasive blasting are specified to remove grease, oil, paint, and weak concrete. These methods also produce a textured surface that provides mechanical bonding. Another method is to roughen the existing floor to produce 1/4-inch-high ridges.

What a difference a couple weeks makes
. I think I'm back, if not 100%, then pretty darn close to where I was pre-update. It really went downhill this week. I was at an intersection, saw an opening in traffic, put my foot to the throttle and...nothing. For 2-3 seconds, as a car was bearing down on me, nothing at all happened, then it all came on at once. I'm back to looking like I'm driving (badly) a poorly-coordinated manual tranny car. I called my SA and let him know that the fix worked for a week or two, but it has reverted back to its demented former state.
In a related development, I located a very nice E53 X5 4.4i that's beckoning me to come closer. I like the gas mileage of the X3 (21mpg in overall drving), but my commute is only 12 miles per day, and the V8 in the X5 - and especially the fact that it has NO driveability issues or weird shifting problems - is making it look better and better to me every day.

Per my earlier post regarding the procedure that was performed, the service order says, ""DC 24 00 38 61 00. Updated EGS and DME software per SI B24 08 07. DME failed to reprogram on first attempt. DME reprogrammed on second attempt."
The more I drive it, the more I notice it feels like a totally different vehicle. I was set to trade it because it was just no fun to drive; that is not the case any longer. I might just keep it around for a while...

Square Brackets or Brackets
British English
[ ] = square brackets
American English
[ ] = brackets
We typically use square brackets when we want to modify another person's words. Here, we want to make it clear that the modification has been made by us, not by the original writer. For example:
- to add clarification:
- The witness said: "He [the policeman] hit me."
- to add information:
- The two teams in the finals of the first FIFA Football World Cup were both from South America [Uruguay and Argentina].
- to add missing words:
- It is [a] good question.
- to add editorial or authorial comment:
- They will not be present [my emphasis].
- to modify a direct quotation:
- He "love[s] driving." (The original words were "I love driving.")
We also sometimes use square brackets for nesting, for example:
- Square brackets can also be nested (using square brackets [like these] inside round brackets).

My WRX is only 1 year and 5 months old to me and I'm still loving it. However it is not the only Subaru I have experienced!
My parents bought the popular legacy outback hatchback. I think it is a 2000? 2002 at the latest. Anyways, I learned to drive on that car, my dad used it as his DD/snow-warrior and really racked on the miles. Then it went to my mom as a DD where it got the most abuse (ha!) and then to us teenagers to learn to drive.
My dad has replaced a few wheel bearings and other small stuff, but overall it has been great. It did have one bad accident where it was only a hundred bucks or so from being totaled (mom wanted a new car lol), but they fixed it up and it continued to live. It leaked a little coolant somewhere but I think that was fixed up too. Now it is used as a backup vehicle and my youngest brother is learning to drive on it. Last I checked it was sitting at 220k+ miles, but I think it has a bit more now. It's a little scary to drive, but I don't doubt it will still get you where you need to go.
That car is definitely a reason I leaned towards a Subaru. I know a WRX isn't the same and I don't expect it to go quite that far, but it does give me hope!
-17 days.... im dying waiting to get my hands on my delicious SWP... and i'm sure ill keep it for over 6 years.. good family car.... carry the kids (when i have kids) and still run the tracks sometimes
I've had Teh Fabulous Trashwagon three weeks shy of 11 years.
I've had my OBXT three weeks shy of 5 years.
Not a Subie, but I've had my MGA about 12 1/2 years.

July 2002. The car was built in May 2002.
I cannot emphasize enough that if the car doesn't make 200k mi Subaru will never see any more money from me. 21st century cars; 21st century expectations. I should be there within 3 years or so and the car will barely be 15 years old - still new!

no one has tried it, you would be thre first one!
I'm really curious as to if it would work. It might, it might not. Do you have the clicking noise when you turn off the car from underneath?
To do the "fix", all you have to do is unbolt the actuator motor (I think you said you did this already), turn the white gear 180 degrees, and put the motor back in. The worm gear will seat itself properly (I have tried this with my messed up one, so you should have nothing to worry about). Reinstall and then let us know!
If you can drive a few times and try to push the X-drive system so that it has to work, and report back many of us would be very eager to hear how it works. Good luck!

Man Involved in SLO Standoff Has Extensive Criminal History
SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. - We're learning that Austin Ross, 29, the masked man who was arrested in yesterday's standoff with SWAT team members in San Luis Obispo has an extensive criminal history, including 3 other arrests in the last 2 months.
When Ross came out of the apartment wearing a mask and was arrested, it marked his 4th arrest of this year already. Back in March he was arrested for possessing less than an ounce of marijuana and resisting a police officer.
Ross was then arrested in April for possession of a controlled substance.
Earlier this month, he was arrested again for taking a car without consent and reckless driving.
Yesterday, police were looking for Ross on an arrest warrant for a stolen car, firearm possession, and evading arrest. That led to the standoff, which caused the scary scene as students and neighbors watched it unfold.
Campus is just a few blocks away and some Cal Poly journalism students were right there when officers took Ross into custody.
"It was very adrenaline pumping," said Erica Husting, a Cal Poly senior. "I'd never seen that before, so it was definitely out of the ordinary."
The apartment that Ross was in was his girlfriend's, who police say is a Cal Poly student. She was not there at the time, but was notified of what happened.
Officers say Ross did not have any weapons on him at the time.
Ross is currently still in custody at the San Luis Obispo County Jail. His bail is set at $110,000. Superior Court administration says no date has been set yet for his arraignment.

Catching Jordan (edition 2011)
by Miranda Kenneally
Work details
Catching Jordan by Miranda Kenneally
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Available through kindle unlimited.
Cute contemporary YA romance. Would be a fun autumn read with the football connection.
Check out my review and a teaser here: http://frommetoyouvideophoto.blogspot.com/2012/01/feasted-on-catching-jordan-by-...
I wanted to read catching Jordan because I really enjoy racing Savannah one of the later ones in the series so I figured I would try and see if I like more of the authors writing style.
Jordan's a great character and I liked her right away. she's the female quarterback and coach of her high school football team and she wants to go even further to the college or pro level but her dad is not supportive of her playing even though he was a football player himself.
Jordan is a pretty complex character she has a best friend named Henry and I'm beginning to suspect that he has feelings for her but she just sees it is totally platonic because they've been friends for so long.
Jordan and Henry I guess that are best friends but it just feels like it goes even further than that because Henry spends the night in Jordan bed a lot and even though nothing happens there it can just give kind of the wrong ideas.
Their relationship is kind of a mystery to the guy that Jordan has a crush on by the new guy in town who is also a quarterback and he has also very good. Jordan wants keep Her distance though. she's always kind of shied away from any kind of relationship besides friendship with the team because she doesn't want them to view her as we are too girly or anything else could because she wants to keep their respect because she is there a captain.
She faces some pretty hard issues in this one. her Dad not wanting her to play and him never really showing up to any of her games or even talking football with her and that really hurts her pretty deeply. she also gets an offer from a college saying that she'll probably get a full ride but they want me to do this photo shoot and it has her very girly like in a jersey and shorts shorts and she's uncomfortable with it but she also pretty much will do anything to get into that schools and to be able to play ball on that sort of level. Jordan always wears workout clothes and she's very much a tomboy and she's okay with that for the most part.
The whole crush thing is pretty new to her too she liked her but she keeps holding back in even though its obvious to other people and even her that they have the chemistry she just doesn't want to give up that part of herself and it's all very new to her she never even really been kissed and all the sudden she's having thoughts about how hot this guy is and it's different because she's been surrounded by boys a lot with the team
Bottom Line: Enjoyed Jordan, the friendships and eventual romance.
Catching Jordan is a book that caught me by surprise. I very rarely read contemporary YA because as a genre it usually doesn't appeal to me, but ironically it was a naughty story from Tiffany Reisz who borrowed a character from Miranda Kenneally's book for her erotic shorts which made me buy a novel by this author in the first place.
Weird and wonderful ways, right?
Miranda's writing strikes me as incredibly honest and refreshing.
Jordan Woods is a girl quarterback which is already pretty unusual and daring. Not only that, but she is a captain of her team of teen boys who respect her and love her and treat her the way they treat each other.
Her dad is a famous football player, her brother is following in his steps, and that's what she wants to do too, but what she gets is silent disapproval and a cold shoulder from her dad who deep down is really scared of her injuring herself in the field because she physically simply is not as tough as the boys.
Jordan also has her best friend, Henry, a member of her team, with whom she literally has been joined at the hip since they were little. He is wonderful and goofy and warm. he is a joy to read about.
"Congratulations, Mommy," I say, dropping the doll into his hands. "You could've told me I knocked you up."
"My bad. I thought you'd force me to get an abortion," Henry replies, taking the baby and cradling it as if it's real. "He has your eyes, Woods."
"And your hair." The doll is bald. "Can we name him Joe Montana?"
"Hells no, his name is Jerry Rice."
"No, his name is Joe Montana."
"I was in labor with him for fourteen hours!" Henry exclaims as he rocks the baby back and forth. "His name is Jerry Rice."
I grin. "Fine."
As you can guess from the synopsis though, it's the new boy on her team and in her school that attracts her attention, and it's her dilemmas and solutions and slow realisation of what she really wants from her life is what's so interesting about this book.
First of all, sex. I can't tell you how refreshing it is to read about a girl who doesn't make it a huge deal, doesn't get what the fuss is about and doesn't think that if she had sex with her boyfriend this is it - he is her Prince Charming and she has to please him any way she can. Jordan is independent, strong and doesn't take shit from anyone. When her boyfriend behaves like a jerk, she tells him to back off and when she realises he is not what she wants for herself she calmly and rationally breaks up with him. She is honest and uses her head despite feeling emotional as all teens do.
I couldn't help but cheer for Woods and her friends and family, because this is a book about appreciation for what you have and realisation of what you need, it's wise and humorous and emotional. And I wish to see more books like that published in the future. Highly recommended.
Catching Jordan was a somewhat enjoyable read about a HS girl on the football team. In some ways it was a bit unbelievable that Jordan could be such a standout quarterback with plans on playing football at college. I liked her interaction with all of the football players and how they treated her as one of guys but also were very protective of her. I had some issues with the fact that as HS students her friend Henry spent the night in her room and in her bed frequently throughout the book. Also the fact that so many of the characters mention their casual sexual conquests throughout the book was a bit frustrating, especially if the book is marketed to a YA audience. I would hate for my teenage kids to read this book and think this type of behavior is acceptable.
Debut author Kenneally does a solid job of depicting Jordan's conflicted emotions, the pressure she is under, and her testy relationship with her father. Despite the gridiron setting, this is at its heart a romance—most of the action and drama takes place off the field.

What girl doesn't want to be surrounded by gorgeous jocks day in and day out? Jordan Woods isn't just surrounded by hot guys, though. She leads them as the captain and quarterback of her high school football team. They all see her as one of the guys, and that's just fine. As long as she gets her athletic scholarship to a powerhouse university. But now there's a new guy in town who threatens her starting position ...suddenly she's hoping he'll see her as more than just a teammate.… (more)

|Topic Review (Newest First)
The Westsnails are certainly off-shore capable... The Cal 40 is, but is rather uncomfortable from what I have read in a big blow. The Whitby 42 and Tartan 37 are both pretty good solid boats, but very different in nature.
You'd be better off starting your own thread, and very clearly defining what you want the boat to do, as well as what limitations and requirements you have for the boat.
Same Problem with Height
Dear Gents,
Which of the above-mentioned yachts would be considered to be 'Offshore' capable, when it comes to strength, tankage/storage and behaviour in medium to heavy seas? It seems that my plans are very similar to Giannboy, and where I intend to sail is known for big blows etc.
I have looked at (on Yachtworld only) at yachts such as the Whitby 42, Little Harbour 38, Cape Dory 40, Pearson 424 etc. They all seem to more or less fit the bill, however headroom is rarely mentioned. That's why I glad I stumbled on this thread!
Thanks for any help or comments.
According to Latitude 38 Letters Jan 2003, the following boats have 6'6" or more headroom:
Cal 40, CT-41, Irwin 42, Westsail 32, Endeavour 37, Tartan 37 yawl, Pearson 38, Union 36 and Columbia's 34 and 39
|I'm 6'3" and can wander around the cabin of my 1982 E40 ENDEAVOUR center cockpit without banging my noggin.... height was a concern for me also!
You can pick up a Catalina 380 for that price. I think it meets all your requirements. It would seem to be a med disp boat. It is based and built on the Morgan hull, not Catalina. Only the top is Catalina.
THey have discontinued the 380 in lieu of the 387. I personally prefer the 380 better. I can attest taht it will do well in storms (not gales, storms) and we even rode out a hurricane on ours (though we were at a marina... but we took a beating and 3 boats sank/tried to sink in the same conditions). You can single the boat very easy. Negatives are access into the lazarette and tankage.
Hope that helps. I know the boat well, so feel free to ask about it.
|The Pearson 36 might also be a possibility.
|I'm about 6'4.5" and in a Tartan 37' I can stand up in the cabin, if I take off my shoes. I think the Catalina 350 is the only boat of that size that seemed like it had headroom to spare.
My lovely Dutch wife stands 6'2"
We have lived aboard our 1979 Niagara 35 Mk1 (winter and summer) for four years in Toronto harbour. She has 2" headroom everywhere in the boat, galley, rear cabin, head and right up forward in the saloon to the doorway leading into our forepeak storage. The doorways from one compartment to another are a bit lower than 6'4" but the rest of the boat is great. The Niagara 35 Mk1 has two quarterberths which are in a separate compartment in the stern. The head is stb'd midships with a walkway both fwd and aft. The galley is portside opposite the head. The large saloon is quite nice too. There is a doorway fwd which accesses a forepeak workbench and seat, with massive storage for sails and other gear. The boat is well ventilated with six opening ports and four hatches. It's a medium displacement masthead sloop designed for coastal work but we plan to circumnavigate, leaving in June 2008 ;-) These boats were designed by Mark Ellis and well-built in the Niagara Falls Ontario area by Hinterhoeller. There is a newer Mk2 "Encore" model with a traditional layout and vee-berth but they command a larger price, in excess of $100k The Mark 1 we have goes in the $75 - $90K area, depending on whether it's seen salt water. Our 1979 Niagara 35 cost $85K in 2003
sailquest dot com/market/models/niag35
Love my good ol' boat!
I stand 6-5 (used to be 6-6 but age will shrink you) and sail an Endeavour 37. She lets me walk about below with no shoes on! My head scrapes in the galley, but that is good; my wife has to do the dishes! Ragtime has 2 Quarter berths 7 feet long and the table drops to form another berth 6-10 long and 108 inches wide! This is typical of the "A plan" which has no V berth, allowing a larger galley, salon and head than the "B plan." She weighs in at 20,000 lbs with 8000 lbs of lead in her modified full keel. Drawing 4'6" she can go places many fin keel boats her size cannot. As heavy as she is she does not do well in light air, but she is stable and comfortable in heavier winds, and sails well enough that I have passed a lot of boats that were forced to reef. My boom stands high enough that I have 6-7 under the Bimini, 6-6 under a custom made dodger. The Perkins 4108 diesel develops 50 hp which will push her at hull speed but runs more economically at 5.5 knots. With roller furling, autohelm, and lines run aft nearly anyone can singlehand a 37 foot boat, but I have not added autohelm yet. You can buy one for 40-60K, depending on condition and age, which allows you to add autohelm and other repairs and upgrades within your estimated budget. Another possibility is Hunter 34-5, made in 92 and 93, but the 91 version and 95 version were lower headroom, and the hull is not as sturdy as the Endeavour. I would prefer a stronger hull than Catalina, Hunter, or Bendytoy when offshore, even in the Great Lakes.
I just came home from the St Pete boat show, where I saw the Island Packet 460 center cockpit, with 7'2" headroom. We both wish that was in our budget!
I own a 2003 Catalina 350. Actual LOA is 36.5 feet. I think the headroom in the salon and forward cabin is 6'7". The model was first introduced in 2002 and there are a number of them for sale on Yachtworld. Asking prices are a bit above the upper end of your budget, but not that much.
Shoal draft on the boat is 4.5 feet. I routinely single-hand my boat and back into my slip when I dock, and I have no problems doing so. The boat has a 35 HP Universal engine and will do nearly hull speed at 2800 rpm.

The AP has called the race for Arizona's 9th Congressional District for Democratic candidate Kyrsten Sinema on Monday, making her the first openly bisexual member of Congress.
Sinema led with nearly 6,000 votes over Republican candidate Vernon Parker while early and provisional ballots are still being counted in Arizona.
According to this, there is still a healthy amount of votes left to be counted, but down in CD-2 — where there are far fewer votes left to be counted — Democratic Congressman Ron Barber has taken back the lead from Republican challenger Martha McSally.
The AP reports:
Her victory came in a year when three states approved gay marriage, and at least five openly gay Democrats were elected to House seats. A Wisconsin congresswoman also became the first openly gay person elected to the Senate.
Parker, who took the national stage briefly in September when he gave the GOP weekly address, was criticized by Democrats as a tea party radical who would hurt children by cutting the federal education department.
(my bold)
While Demorats remain inclusive and accepting to all people, Republicans have been determined to ostracize the gay population, Latinos and African Americans/Blacks. This is a big win for progress.

Why am I having tingling and numbness in my hands during pregnancy?
These sensations are most likely caused by carpal tunnel syndrome. Although you probably associate this condition with people whose jobs require repetitive hand movements (such as data processors, computer programmers, and assembly-line workers), it's also more prevalent in pregnant women.
Symptoms may include numbness, tingling, pain, or a dull ache in the fingers, hand, or wrist. These symptoms tend to come and go and are often worse at night. Occasionally, the discomfort may even extend to the forearm and upper arm. In severe or chronic cases, your hand may feel clumsy or weak.
Symptoms usually affect both hands and can appear at any time, but they're more likely to begin or worsen in the second half of pregnancy when women tend to retain more fluid. The symptoms usually go away gradually after you give birth, as the swelling from pregnancy subsides.
What causes carpal tunnel syndrome during pregnancy?
The carpal tunnel is a bony canal formed by the wrist bones on three sides and a ligament that runs across the wrist on the other. The fluid retention and swelling that's so common during pregnancy can increase the pressure in this relatively narrow and inflexible space, compressing the median nerve that runs through it.
The median nerve gives sensation to the thumb and the index, middle, and half of the ring finger and is responsible for movement of a muscle at the base of the thumb. Pressure on this nerve causes the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome.
What can I do to relieve the pain?
Try to figure out what activities tend to cause or aggravate the problem for you, and avoid those activities as much as you can. Sometimes you can make changes to protect your hands. For example, if you're working at a computer, adjust the height of your chair so your wrists aren't bent downward as you type. See if using a wrist or hand brace or an ergonomic keyboard lessens your symptoms. And be sure to take short breaks to move your arms and stretch your hands.
If your symptoms bother you at night, try stabilizing your wrist in a neutral position (not bent) with a splint or brace. A neutral position allows the carpal tunnel to be slightly wider. Avoid sleeping on your hands. Shift your sleeping position and try propping up your arm with a pillow or two when you feel the twinges. If you wake up with pain, try shaking your hands until the pain or numbness goes away.
Practicing yoga can increase hand strength and may help relieve your symptoms.

- 1 stick plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for the pan
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 (large) egg yolk
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- Sugar, for rolling
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- 1 cup seedless raspberry preserves
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest, finely grated
How to Make It
In a bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the 1 stick plus 2 tablespoons of butter with the sugar and egg yolk until smooth. Add the flour, baking powder and salt and beat at low speed until evenly moistened, about 2 minutes. Using your hands, knead once or twice to bring the dough together.
Butter a 9-inch square metal baking pan. Pat three-fourths of the dough into the baking pan in an even layer. Roll the remaining dough into 36 small balls. Roll the balls in sugar, transfer to a wax paper–lined baking sheet and press the balls to 1/4-inch-thick rounds with the bottom of a glass. Refrigerate the crust and rounds for 10 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350°.
In a microwave-safe bowl, cover the cranberries with water and microwave at high power for 1 minute, just until plump. Drain, pressing out the water; let cool slightly. Return the cranberries to the bowl and stir in the preserves and lemon zest.
Spread the berry filling over the dough in the baking pan and arrange the rounds on top. Bake in the lower third of the oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top is golden. Let the square cool completely.
Run the tip of a knife around the edge of the baking pan. Cut the square into 18 bars and serve.

SAN FRANCISCO WEDDING IN JUNEJune, 2009 in San Francisco
"When we first started talking about planning the wedding, we needed to decide between a small intimate affair and a gala event. Either size could have been done with style and grace.
One important goal that we could both agree upon was that we wanted our guests to be comfortable and have a wonderful time. We wanted to plan the kind of wedding that we ourselves would love to attend.
So since we will only do this once, we combined all the things we love: fresh high quality food,
lots of desserts,
excellent wine, interesting art,
beautiful locations,
live music, and
laughter amongst friends.
And we held a blow-out event...
We used many online resources to both plan and communicate the wedding activities, and Wedding Mapper provided a very convienent link to show people where everything would be located."

Cleveland's biggest drug bust in decades
(Cleveland) - Thirty-one suspects have been charged in a 107 federal indictment, involving drug trafficking in Greater Cleveland.
Federal law enforcers report the probe caps an investigation of violent drug gangs that has been underway since 2010.
One of the suspects is accused of fatally burning a man alive because he owed a drug debt.
Cleveland FBI Agent-in-Charge Stephen Anthony said the suspects operated on the city's east side, selling heroin and cocaine. He revealed that officers recovered 15 weapons, seven kilos of heroin, one kilo of cocaine and $750,000 in cash.
Of the 31 suspects, 28 have been arrested, while 3 remain at large. They are 27 year old Ruben Bell, 30 year old Latoya Johnson, and 30 year old James McClain. Anyone with information about the three should contact the FBI at (216) 522-1400.
Latoya Johnson, Ruben Bell, and James McClain.
Three of the 31 suspects are charged with money laundering, using drug cash to invest in real estate and small businesses.
Joe Pinjuh of the Organized Crime and Drug Enforcement Task Force called it one of the most significant drug busts in decades, that will take a lot of dangerous people, and dangerous drugs off Cleveland streets.

What would you like to do?
Can you include alimony in Chapter 7 bankruptcy?
Alimony and child support is considered to be non-dischargeable.

Thanks for the feedback!
Do you need to include all credit cards when filing a chapter 7 bankruptcy?
Answer Yes, all debts and assets must be included in the bankruptcy filing. If a mistake is made and some debts and/or assets are not reported, the filer sh…ould contact the BK attorney or the trustee immediately. Deliberately ommitting information on a bankruptcy filing are grounds for dismissal. In addition when information especially assets is deliberately withheld the person(s) can be charged with bankruptcy fraud which is a federal crime and if convicted can be fined and/or imprisoned.
How do I convert chapter 13 bankruptcy to chapter 7 myself What should be included in the motion to convert letter?
Converting Chapter 13 BK to a Chapter 7 . The debtor (or the debtor's attorney) can do this with a simple filing - usually an "Ex Parte Motion to Convert Chapter 13 to a Ch…apter 7." Providing the debtor's bankruptcy has not previously been converted already, the debtor/debtor attorney can do this without the permission or advance permission of either the bankruptcy judge or the Chapter 13 trustee that is managing the bankruptcy up until that point (hence, the "Ex Parte" part of the document).. There are notice requirements - check with your local bankruptcy district to see who this needs to be mailed out to. Also, there is usually a small fee involved (it usually involves the debtor paying the difference in cost between a Chapter 13 and a Chapter 7 filing, but may be different - again, check with your local bankruptcy court).. The debtor will be required to go through another 341 creditor's meeting with the new Chapter 7 trustee.
Can you include court ordered criminal restitution in chapter 7 bankruptcies?
No. Penalties are not able to be discharged - although you must list them.
How do you file for chapter 7 bankruptcy?
You can: 1) Hire a lawyer 2) File without any assistance by finding the right forms and regulations for your state and district you live in...or 3) Hire a bankruptcy petition …preparer to simply prepare your petition for you! Bankruptcy, in fact any legal process, any expert process..is not something one should do for themselves...even experts and well experienced or skilled people don't...and as you can ask a question like this...it just goes to show your likely entirely incompetent to do so even if there was an answer for "how" (that obviously doesn't involve virtually all the 10,000s of pages of legal writings and court operations that may or may not be needed, and change, for each case! There are going to be many, many, many more complicated questions to be answered, actions that must be done to get the best result, specific requirements. documents, etc....to answer fully and accurately...all much more difficult than figuring out a logical place to start a "how to...do a legal thing"...is the legal courthouse...in this case one of those in the entire court system that deals only with this type of case...The US Federal Bankruptcy Court for your District. Addressing the underlying part of your question - it is realistic to think everyone filing BK is in a dire financial position already without easy ways to pay for things, especially attorneys. That said, many lawyers keep their fees very reasonable for this, and there are provisions to assure administrative costs involved, like attorneys, are able to be paid as part of the process. Before you go any further, you should consult at least 2 attornies who practice in this field to get more info. These initial consults are almost always available for free. You can always file and administer it yourself, with only modest filing & court fee's, that are even sometimes able to be waived if you can meet certain qualifications, and again, file everything properly, etc. However, any court process is complex and can have any number of special issues and possible results. To someone who is unfamilar with it, and especially someone who may not be very financially conversant and able to easily understand the things being asked and where/how to get required documentation, etc. To expect to get the best result or even hoped for one, (in fact as seen from many of the Qs and beliefs expressed in Qs here, to not make matters even worse...even criminally so, or find that something was missed that becomes a problem years later), is simply unrealistic. I am not one, and may not particularly like them, but something as important as this to your future (not some purchase just because you want it), is exactly why and when an attorney (or expertise) is needed. As you look to get a fresh start and handle financial things differently, the purchase of expertise to accomplish it is not the time or place to DIY. == The Steps For Filing A Chapter 7 Bankruptcy: 1) You meet with an attorney (or can self file, which probably isn't recommended, especially if your starting with having to ask here. However, perhaps any of the "do it yourself" legal kits would be a viable alternative if you really want to go it alone.) 2) You submit a list of creditors, with addresses, types of debt and amounts owed. You'll also answer questions and provide information about your income and assets. 3) If after review you decide to go ahead and file, and determine which Chapter is best, prepare and sign all of the paperwork. 4) The attorney's office, or you, files the case. (Legal cases and procedures are exacting and frequently require lots of specific info., especially for someone not experineced in it). 5) You will attend a First Meeting of Creditors (341 meeting) where you will be asked questions about your case. 6) You will start to receive correspondence about the progress and may need to respond or instructions in case you have to reappear. Sometimes if you are reaffirming on a debt (for instance, keeping your car in a Chapter 7 and continuing to pay on it) you will be required to attend a Reaffirmation hearing. 7) If all is well, the debt will be discharged and the case will be closed. Many attorneys will give you a free consultation, but it is advisable to call and ask them instead of assuming that you won't be charged for the first meeting. The most important thing to keep in mind if you do file bankruptcy is that it is vital to keep your credit clean and your bills paid on time once the case has been closed and the debts discharged. I'd suggest that you consult with a local attorney for all the facts, because only an attorney can advise you on all of the details of the bankruptcy process and whether it is a viable option for you. You get the forms and instructions and read them carefully and understand everything. All the forms are available free from the bankruptcy court website for your jurisdiction. Some states have only one bankruptcy court for the state, some have two or three. Google your state and US Bankruptcy court. Read the rules, which you will also find on the website. Complete the forms. Most people do not understand exemptions and do not claim them, or do not claim them properly. The second biggest mistake self-filers make is to not complete the Statement of Intention, which only matters if you have a motor vehicle loan or a mortgage or home equity loan. The third mistake is not listing all - ALL - creditors and preparing a creditor mailing list in proper form. Forms and instructions are also available at several websites, usually belonging to lawyers but may not be free.
Who can file for bankruptcy chapter 7?
Any person of legal age or legal entity (corporation, partnership, LLC, etc.) can file for c. 7. Whether there is any need or point in filing depends on other facts.
Why file for chapter 7 bankruptcy?
There are both advantages and disadvantages to filing for bankruptcy. Chapter 7 is often known as debt liquidation bankruptcy and is a good options for many individuals are co…uples that are in dire financial straits. As soon as a debtor files for bankruptcy, there is an automatic stay and most creditors must stop their collection efforts. Thus, the debtor can begin rebuilding his credit; financially-speaking, the debtor can start over. It is true that filing for bankruptcy ruins a debtor's credit from a number of years and may cause embarrassment. However, incurring more debt and facing the harassing phone calls, letters and potential lawsuits from creditors can have the same effect. Filing for bankruptcy will allow many debtors to get started sooner on rebuilding their credit in peace.
Can you include back child support payments in a chapter 7 bankruptcy?
Answer No child and/or spousal support are not dischargeable in a chapter 7 BK. Answer It is my understanding that child support, student loans,… taxes owed, and things along that line cannot be included in a bankruptcy.
What can not be filed on by chapter 7 bankruptcy?
Items obtained through fraud, child support, court ordered restituion and federal/state taxes (off the top of my head). ALL debts must be listed because you are swearing that …you have listed all debts. If there are assets in the case, some of your debts will be paid, therefore, the Courts need to know of ALL of your debts, so you list EVERYTHING. However, some debts are non-dischargable such as: Items obtained through fraud; Domestic Support Obligations; Taxes that are less than 3 years old; Student Loans; Debts incurred in the process of a crime (such as a DUI accident). It should also be noted that there is a 90 day presumptive period. Any debt incurred within 90 days prior to filing a Bankruptcy is presumptively fraudelent. Any debt incurred with the intention of filing Bankruptcy or without intention of repayment is presumed fraudulent.
Can federal and state taxes be included in Chapter 7 bankruptcy?
ALL assets and ALL liabilities are included. Each are given different priority. Taxes are a liability. They are included and given their priority.
If you filed a chapter 7 bankruptcy in 2002 then when can you file again a chapter 7 bankruptcy?
As asked and answered at least a thousand times here before....and because of the system provided to you already.....I gather you want to ignore it as you want to… ignore the need to do things differently, if you don't want to be considered bankruptt in more than just smarts and financial matters....... Under the bankruptcy laws effective on October 17, 2005, Chapter 7 cannot be filed unless the debtor was discharged from the previous Chapter 7 or bankruptcy more than eight years ago. The debtor cannot file a Chapter 13 unless: (1) the debtor received a discharge under Chapter 7, 11 or 12 more than four years ago; or (2) the debtor received a discharge under Chapter 13 more than two years ago.
Can you include a timeshare in a chapter 7 bankruptcy?
It must be. EVERYTHING you owe and EVERYTHING you own is included in the BK. They are given different priorities by the Court (some of either may be exempt)....but you …do not pick and chose what you include. Basically all of your assets are used to pay your debts. You will be swearing, in writing, to including everything and honestly providing info on your entire financial status to the court. Not doing so can be interpreted as criminal fraud...to a judge/court...not something taken lightly.
Can you file a chapter 7 bankruptcy and a chapter 13 bankruptcy?
not at the same time, and you'll have to wait a certain period of time after being dismissed/discharged from one before filing the other.
What is filing chapter 7 bankruptcy?
Chapter 7 is called Liquidation Under the Bankruptcy Code and is the chapter of the Bankruptcy Code providing for "liquidation,", the sale of a debtor's nonexempt property and… the distribution of the proceeds to creditors.
Can you include personal property taxes on your chapter 7 bankruptcy?
A basic, rough primer: BK is always done under FEDERAL Laws, in a Federal Bankrutpcy Court. Basically State makes little difference. (Yes the BK Courts operating in… certain areas have certain special exemptions and such, minor in the overall, generally intended to make things adhere to the local laws and customs better). In a personal bankruptcy, YOU go bankrupt. Not a debt, not a loan...not a car...not a this or that. ALL of your assets, of all types, MUST be disclosed and reported in BK, and ALL of your liabilities/debts must be too. No exceptions, no picking and choosing. They are all, always involved in some way. The court will then order each of them in priorities according to the laws. Some things may be exempt from use or discharge (like your personal furniture and retirement accounts are exempt and child support cannot be discharged) - and the rest may be used. With one to pay the other. (All possible creditors are contacted and asked to say what they are owed....you may be required to even take advertisments out to make sure everyone is notified). Any deal you've done for several years is open to scruitiny and review. The court can reverse them, take them out of the BK, or even have them prosecuted as trying to defraud your creditors. (So, no you can't sell your boat to your brother and then declare BK). Debts secured by an asset (say a car) have first call or right to the money received from that asset. If it isn't enough to pay the debt, the remainder of that debt becomes a general or unsecured claim against the BK., and has a chance to payment on that level too (albeit a lower priority than those who have yet to receive anything). The end/remaining amount that can't be satisfied is generally discharged by the court...meaning you no longer owe it. You get a fresh basically debt free start....many of those you owe don't get paid what they had expected and relied on, if anything. There are many other considerations too. BK will severly hurt your ability to get credit for a very long time for example. It is on your credit report for at least 10 years...and employers refer to that too, as do landlords and more. Many do not trust people with bankruptcies in their past, especially in the last few years. Many more things. Not disclosing all items is frequently tried and easily discovered, in which case - as you are swearing under oath to the court you included all info - your case is dismissed, and regularly, fraud charges are pursued. (Courts don't take to being lied to well). Many seem to fall into the trap thinking that they can trick or change or especially shortcut the system, or want to believe what they wrongly understand overrides things (like I don't have to report that asset because it is exempt). It simply ain't going to happen. The courts, Judges, laws, bankers, all those zillions of attornies, etc, have been through this thousands of times for many, many years. The processes are fairly well worked through and prepared for tricks and games. It is unlikely you would discover one that hasn't been tried a zillion times before! The Cos that claim they can change your record, or make magic happen (either before or after BK), are scams, and getting caught doing something unsavory (intentional or not), other than screwing up your bankruptcy filing, is frequently considered and persued criminally. (Think your financial troubles are bad, try adding in criminal ones). The legal process and system is demanding even for those experienced with it. Many of your creditors will have an attorney to assure they get as much as possible, even groups of lawyers, who specialize only in bankruptcy. Simply you should/better/need to have one too
What is chapter 7 bankruptcy in CA?
Bankruptcy anywhere is a Federal matter, in a Federal court. Except for minor differences in the way certain Federal Districts view things, for administrative ease mainl…y, it is the same everywhere. Chapter 7 is a dissolution.
Cancellation of chapter 7 bankruptcy?
You can dismiss a bankruptcy. (Motion to dismiss) However, you will no longer be under the protection of the bankruptcy courts, will still owe everything, and will still… have a bankruptcy on your credit report. You may also be prevented from filing again for quite some time. Talk to an attorney about your individual circumstances and how your local Bankruptcy court handles these situations.
In Foreclosure
If you include your house in a bankruptcy chapter 7 how will this show on your credit report Will it show included in bankruptcy or as a separate foreclosure?
If your home loan is included in your bankruptcy, the code describing your repayment behavior on your credit report for this loan will change. If the bank forecloses on your …home, the code describing your repayment behavior on your credit report for this loan will change. The loan will have one coded description of your repayment behavior. Credit Agencies only care about your repayment habits, not which mechanism cost you your home. There is no separate report. Your credit is going to be BAD for many years. Whether the house was part of the bankruptcy or whether it was taken in a foreclosure action will not matter (it's not like one is better than the other).

Sometimes though, the type, size and position of the damage will mean that the whole windscreen needs to be replaced.
The price of the work carried out will therefore depend on two key factors:
- Whether we can repair your existing windscreen or whether we are likely to recommend that it is replaced with a new one.
- Whether your vehicle insurance provides cover for glass damage.
|Your existing windscreen be repaired
|This will usually be free of charge and will normally not affect your no claims bonus.
|Your existing windscreen needs to be replaced
|This will also usually be free of charge and normally will not affect your no claims bonus.
|Your existing windscreen be repaired
|This will usually cost a third of the cost of a new windscreen.
|Your existing windscreen needs to be replaced
|This will depend upon the type of windscreen that needs replacing.

Meadow Revival Project
The Santa Barbara Botanic Garden has begun an exciting project to renew the wildflower display in the Meadow.
Work on the project began in April of 2013 and is scheduled for completion in December of 2014.
This ambitious project received major support from the Hind Foundation. The Smart Family Foundation has generously funded upgrades that will increase growing capacity at our own plant propagation nursery in support of this project.
Seeding the Future begins NOW!
Since the Meadow was first planted to wildflowers in 1940, it has inspired generations of visitors. But the open expanse of the Meadow provides more than just knock out wildflower displays. It also affords views to the peaks of the Santa Ynez Mountains and to the majestic live oaks that frame the display. The middle of the Meadow was traditionally planted to low, showy displays of spring wildflowers. The Meadow borders were made up of a mix of taller plantings.
Over time, the Meadow gradually became less uniform in color, texture, and height and had fewer wildflowers. The planting of two mowed lawns in the 2000s further changed the character of the original Meadow design.
Restoring the Meadow to how it looked in the past was given high priority by the Cultural Landscape Master Plan completed in 2012 by the Garden.
Our goal for this project is to create a modern version of the historic Meadow. The interior of the Meadow will be planted to a uniform mix of seasonal wildflowers and perennial grasses. The Meadow borders will be reshaped and replanted as necessary. We plan to move the taller grasses such as deer grass, giant rye, cane bluestem and any shrubs into the borders.
A variety of different planting schemes have been used in the Meadow over the years including beach strawberry, sea dahlia and California poppy. But weeds have always been a problem. In the past, the Garden had to plow the Meadow regularly to control the weeds. Now, we are taking two full years to remove the standing weeds and to reduce the stockpile of weed seeds in the soil. In the end, we hope that with proper upkeep, the Meadow will never be overwhelmed with weeds again.
Work on the project began in April of 2013 and will be completed in December of 2014. The project will include a series of prescribed weed control activities including "soil solarization" and "grow/kill" treatments in the summer and autumn months. At the end of 2013, we will sow a selected wildflower seed mix for a temporary, but sure to be a spectacular, display in the spring of 2014. Weed control activities will resume in June of 2014 and final planting will occur in fall of 2014.

Emmy Rossum
She's gearing up for the season premiere of her hit comedy "Shameless" and during promotions, Emmy Rossum fronted the January 2014 issue of Company magazine.
While rocking a few poses for the Rony Shram-shot spread, the 27-year-old actress opened up about snagging her role in the series and chatted about her strong personality.
It's one of the most anticipated films of the holiday season, so it's no wonder Emmy Rossum jumped at the chance to see "August: Osage County" at a charity screening last night (December 5).
The "Shameless" actress was gorgeous in a black and white printed dress with red lipstick as she posed outside the Children Mending Hearts & Episcopal School of LA benefit at the Landmark Theater.
Making the most of their humpday evening, some of Tinseltown's brightest stars showed up at the 2013 CFDA & Vogue Fashion Fund event in Los Angeles last night (October 23).
Lea Michele got all gussied up in a Calvin Klein jumpsuit with Louboutin shoes and a Fendi bag as she hit up the Chateau Marmont and mingled with the likes of Krysten Ritter, Rose McGowan, and Jessica Pare.
Making for one of the most jaw-droppingly beautiful red carpets of the year, some of the finest ladies in Tinseltown headed out for ELLE magazine's 20th Annual Women In Hollywood Celebration on Monday (October 21).
Glamming up the Four Seasons Los Angeles was "Water for Elephants" actress Reese Witherspoon, who stunned in a red, strapless Calvin Klein Collection frock as she posed for photographs before heading in for the main attraction.
One out of nine people in the world are living without clean water and two of Hollywood's lovely ladies are coming together to change this dilemma.
While striking a few poses on the red carpet, Emmy Rossum and Jessica Stroup chatted exclusively with GossipCenter at the Charity: Water event in New York City on Monday night (September 16).
With so many designers showcasing their duds at New York Fashion Week 2013, it's hard to choose which shows to attend.
But Emmy Rossum decided to peep Tory Burch's runway presentation at the David H. Koch Theater at Lincoln Center on Tuesday morning (September 10).
Manhattan's Financial District was the place to be on Monday Night (September 9) as DKNY hosted a fabulous 25th Birthday bash.
Hailee Steinfeld, Emmy Rossum, Karlie Kloss, and Gabriel Mann all showed up at 23 Wall Street for the upscale evening.
She is always up for a good party, and on Friday night (August 16), Emmy Rossum showed up for the Delta Air Lines Summer Celebration in Beverly Hills.
The newly single "Beautiful Creatures" star looked lovely in a sleeveless plaid mini dress as she happily posed for her admirers in front of the Beverly Grove.
Stepping out for an evening of film history, stars of all kinds gathered at the Museum of Moving Image in New York City on Wednesday (July 10) for PERSOL MAGNIFICENT OBSESSIONS: 30 Stories of Craftsmanship in Film.
Arriving solo, Liev Schreiber looked handsome in a grey suit, sans tie, while Emma Roberts rocked the arrivals area in white shorts and a daring, sheer gold draped top under a white blazer.
After dating for two years and co-starring on television, Emmy Rossum and Tyler Jacob Moore have parted ways, according to the New York Post.
The former couple was on- and off-screen partners, as their characters on the Showtime series "Shameless," Fiona Gallagher and Tony Markovich, dated.

I guess I started my original writing career as a script-writer. In one of those "where do you think you're going to be in ten years? Dream job, something you'd like to do, and the probable alternative" (one wonders if this is a healthy thing to ask eleven-year-olds), I listed 'playwrite' as one job in the middle category. Yes, I'd always loved making up characters (only child syndrome) and detailing their bizarre adventures on paper (my mind is bizarre), but I'd just finished writing a play about first love and bullying, and it was the first piece of writing I 'got', emotionally. Fanfiction about Hopper from Bug's Life was all well and good (!) and a chapter book about being turned into a doll was fun, but I'd not put as much effort, in terms of feelings (you know), into them until I'd written my script.
It's the Teens Can Write, Too! blog chain for June! This month's prompt is
"What are your thoughts on book-to-movie adaptations? Would you one day want your book made into a movie, or probably not?"
As you might have guessed from my introduction, I'll be focusing on the latter question of what I'd want When the Clock Broke or Of Jackets and Phones to be like as a movie, and why I am always going to be disappointed. (Spoilers: because I'm a perfectionist!)
Whilst I don't see anything wrong with screen adaptations in general – after all, I wouldn't have started reading Harry Potter had 5-year-old me not loved the first film – producers, directors and even set/costume designers have to be careful where they tread. (I'll take this moment to point out that my knowledge of the industry is skewed to stage, though I have worked on film sets, too – just not as much.)
As others in the chain have rightly pointed out, film is a completely different medium to books, and I'm lucky I have interests in both – especially since my imagination and memory are very photographic, so my stories are effectively movies in my mind before they become paper prose.
Whilst this can prove discordant for some people, I rather like adaptations that have their own spin on a book. Stardust is my all-time favourite film, but whilst the book is nothing when lined up with the cinematography and plot twists of the film, it's not a bad book. The prose is sparkly, but not in an Edward Cullen kind of way! Neil Gaiman himself said:
"It's a parallel Earth version of Stardust, which has Robert De Niro and stuff. And I get people who come to the book from having loved the movie who are really disappointed at some of the stuff that isn't there that Matthew [Vaughn, director/producer] brought." (Empire Online via Wikipedia)
One only has to look at how popular the BBC Sherlock with Benedict Cumberbatch is to see what a great adaptation can do. As a Brit, that makes me immensely proud, especially this most recent season with CAM (no spoilers here!). They adapted my favourite Brett Holmes episode, but whilst they left some of the characters and details in for us Holmesian snobs, they put their own twist on it to give us entertainment and that surprise/shock value that is so prized in modern fiction.
And that works.
We've had some duds, yes. I liked the Series of Unfortunate Events movie – great casting, gorgeous sets (it was on TV over Easter, and, in retrospect, I think one could call the setting Steampunk :D), good script – but it didn't win hearts because the series is so grandiose, so post-modern and extended, that, in the back of our minds, we readers knew a film was never going to do it justice.
Movies that have been optioned and I'd love to see: YA Irish urban fantasy series Skulduggery Pleasant; NA/Upper YA alternate London/Oxford fantasy The Bone Season; adult fantasy Vicious.
Noticing a trend? I do like to read contemporaries, and I'm currently planning one or two in my head, but they're not the sort of thing I'm very interested in watching. What I really love to see adapted for viewing is fantasy or off-world stories. I think this may be due to academic interest; from my work experience aged 16 at a local theatre and my subsequent year of Theatre Studies, I developed an interest in not only the acting side of performances, but also the producing side of theatre. Only yesterday did I post about my uni drama society's 24-hour Musical in which everyone had to lend a hand in creating.
In this way, I love fantasy adaptation for sheer curiosity – how will they make this world? Will they stay true to the book's costume descriptions or will creative/availability licence be added?
One way I gauge if I'm excited for a film adaptation by whether I react less by fangirling and more by treating the coming film as a professional opportunity – ie. whether I'd jump at the chance to be cast, even as an extra, in the film. I'm very hands on when it comes to projects I love, and this is reflected thus in one of my personae.
This brings me to the clincher of the post: When the Clock Broke's (WTCB) hypothetical adaptation.
I guess – like most authors – I have given thought towards what I'd like for a movie of mine. No, scrap that uncertain tone. We're writers here – no room for 'seems' or 'appears' or guesses. I have given thought to having my stories performed, no question about it. I think it would be a dream to see my work performed – be it on stage or screen. Now the former has its impracticalities, as I found out when, during the aforementioned theatre work experience, I tried turning the first few chapters of WTCB into a stageplay, editing as I did so. Whilst, as I say above about fantasy place-setting, one can use one's imagination for sets, what if those sets have to be extensive and changing? For a Steampunk and NeoVictorian writer, in particular, one can either go minimalist or all-out Stanislavski-style naturalist. I found that, as I started planning the script from a we-have-to-recreate-this-novel-on-stage point of view, I hit the problem of the first three chapters being in two different locations (now three, if one is counting the taxicab station as an actual place, rather than simply a passing-through area, as I imagined it when that scene was not yet written).
The upside of staging a novel: a balcony. Whenever I write for stage, I imagine a balcony – simply because of how awesome a place that is in terms of transition and road scenes. In the London theatre permanent host to the musical Wicked, the balcony directly above the stage has its own personality and [musical] number.
So: give me a balcony, where I can throw a narrator or drag around characters or use physical levels as symbolism for socioeconomic levels. Yeah, I do that.
That would be cool, but the verdict is that a WTCB adaptation would be royally in the film camp. Of course, I'd want to be on board as much as possible. I know writers get barely any further than a creative consultant, but it would be good to give my suggestions in terms of character as well as costume and décor. In fact, I'd rather that. Although there are those stupid moments where important visual elements are missed, and the fans are allowed to get angry about that, having an actor/actress portray a character doing something said character would never do is the real insult, to both the character and to the reader. And, I guess, to the author, whose spent so long crafting consistency.
I guess that's perhaps why I'd love to act in my own adaptations. I knew, being the wrong age and all (were we to start filming now; considering that it takes years from unagented MS to film, I'd be the right age for Aidelle at that later year), I'd make a terrible Aidelle, but I have found a place for myself as one of the maids…though maybe not the vindictive one who comes back in the third book. 😉 Maybe.
To conclude this bit of my rambling (!), I'd love to help write the script – the words, not the screenplay – and provide my, ahem, wisdom with the NeoVictorian design, and add thoughts for the characterisation as it unfolds.
Of Jackets and Phones, however, is a different kettle of fish (what a bizarre idiom, by the way!). When entertaining thoughts of making my other favourite novel(s) into something-to-be-acted, I can imagine that Agnetha's mysteries could go any way, as long as the main storyline remains intact. Whilst it probably would be too extensive in content to condense the entire trilogy into one film, I did originally conceive of Agnetha journeying from Oxford to Moscow directly, then through to London for her final third. It helped that I was, at that stage, working with half of the sequel (now 70K ish) and the first book as novella-length.
I may be offending strict-rule bibliophiles here, but OJAP could be cut in so many different ways that I don't suppose I would much mind if the film lacked certain content. The point is that genre plays a heavy part of my personal decision as to whether I'm likely to enjoy an adaptation of a book (be it mine or another author's).
Besides, I'm unhelpfully biased when it comes to OJAP: I still think I'd make the best Agnetha – take a couple of years, hence why compounding the trilogy into a film with the heroine as her final age of eighteen. (Though we won't think about the ages of the actresses playing the reboot St. Trinian's girls, for who knows how old Annabelle is supposed to be?)
In the end, I admit that I'll never be entirely satisfied with the result of an adaptation of any of my novels, but I'd still love to be there for the final unveiling of the in-my-head-stuff into the on-the-screen-stuff.
And, if you're wondering what answer I put when my teacher asked me what I was probably going to be doing aged 21: I put 'unemployed'. And I hadn't even factored in university back then!
The rest of this month's chain. Yeah, I'm last because, you know, life. However, this gives you no excuse not to (have) read the other posts.

I usually love to read Amanda Hesser's lighthearted columns on food, but this one (June 16) upset me and many people I know who belong to ''that small but very vocal group with nut allergies.'' I joined this group four years ago when we found out that my daughter Rachel, then 10 months old, had life-threatening allergies to peanuts, tree nuts and eggs. When we fly, I, too, am convinced that she may die. It almost happened once when she was 3: she left her seat to pick up a crayon and crawled back holding a peanut along with the crayon. Fortunately, she did not have an anaphylactic reaction, but I did have to give her emergency medications and notify the flight crew of the potential for a medical emergency. Contrast the inconvenience of an emergency landing or the horror of a death on board with the choice of snack food, and I think eliminating nuts makes sense.
