Tour de Goulash – Getting healthy while eating my way around the world
Monday, May 13, 2013
I recently started a project of trying to plan as many days worth of meals as I could and storing them up so that I could track them one by one, week by week as needed, saving me time as each week approaches.
The thing is, this project I have discovered, seems to take a lot of time investment up front and I'm not sure how I'll be able to get it all done.
I have to figure a recipe's calories, its servings and keep an eye on its sodium content.
It's a little bit of a chore.
But tonight I came up with an interesting idea that might just keep me engaged while trying to do myself a healthy favor and plan my meals in advance.
What do I have in mind?
A "Tour de Goulash."
I've had several different types of goulash before, not all from the same country.
It gave me an idea. Each country seems to have it's own version of goulash, or stew, and why not, as I track my foods, plan on trying some of them out?
I think I might.
I've had several types of goulash in Germany while I was an exchange student. They call it "Eintopf," or as it appears to me "one-pot." Ein=one and Topf = pot.
I enjoyed these meals and lost about 50 pounds that year without trying. Part of it was the cooking for sure, it was healthy. The vegetables came out of the garden in the back yard.
The potatoes came out of a root cellar below my room (post-garden of course). That was kind of ripe! When that root cellar door was flung open, I would also fling open my window, I don't care what time of year it was.
That was not a friendly smell, but I do like potatoes.
I got a lot of them in Germany.
A lot of countries cook with potatoes. I can't imagine how many.
Probably just as many countries that cook goulash, or stew. A lot I'm sure.
I've had Hungarian chicken goulash. Yum!
That's a family recipe and it's been a while since I've made it.
My mom really knows how to make that goulash sing.
I only hope I can do it half the justice that she does it.
I've had Transylvanian goulash. Or as Rachel Ray calls it in her cookbook "Dracula's Transylvanian Ghoul-ash." Yum-o!
I saw that my in Rachel Ray cookbook and had to try it. I'm so glad I did. Wow.
In the two pages before, she has a Greek goulash recipe I have my eye on. I must try it.
But back to recipes I've tried.
I've had Yugoslavian goulash, or should I say "a recipe formerly known as Yugoslavian goulash."
After history took it's course, what happened to the goulash?
Is it Slovenian goulash now, or Croatian goulash, or Serbian goulash, or Macedonian goulash, Montenegrin goulash or, this is a mouthful, Bosnian and Herzegovinian goulash?
I don't know. It would be interesting to find out – to explore the recipes of that region.
Maybe it's all the same? Who knows. I'll never know until I find out.
On another note, you know, I've never heard of Swedish goulash, or Polish goulash, or Lithuanian goulash.
I'll have to check that out.
Is there Estonian goulash?
I don't know.
Or Russian goulash?
French goulash? Dire quoi?
(That means "say what," according to Google translate.)
Pate maybe, but goulash? I don't know. I haven't had French goulash before.
I liked the pate. It wasn't anything like I expected it to be. But then again, I don't know that all pate is the same. Mine was in a pastry. Yum!
I'm not planning to make any of that.
I'm not even sure where to get that or how to make that. I'll let someone else cook that up for me someday. Hopefully I'll get to have some and hopefully I'll be somewhere in France when I eat it.
I think I'm on to something though. It would be wildly fun to cook dishes from all over the world while I'm tracking my meals. I could get a list of countries and check off the country as I've eaten it's food – at least one dish from each place.
I've heard of Irish Stew. I probably have a recipe at home, but I've never made it. I don't know what's in it, but I'm guessing probably at least a few potatoes.
If that's true, I wonder what the stew might have been like during the "Great Potato Famine." I don't really know much about it, but I know a lot of people died, so there probably wasn't much to eat at all. It's very sad to think about.
I should read about it and educate my mind a little more.
Thinking about famine makes me grateful for what I have and grateful that I can do a project like this one if I want. I don't have a lot myself, and will have to keep it all in budget, and keep the ingredients easy to find, but I think there's a lot to learn in a project like this, and not just about food.
Food has history and it has culture. It's almost as if it's a language, each dish having it's own "patois."
For those who don't know, a patois is a regional dialect. I never thought I'd use that in a sentence, but I have to say, I like how it rolls off the tongue.
Okay. That's out of my system – at least for now!
Such fun.
Speaking of fun, years ago I had the opportunity to make a Ghanaian stew-like soup. It was quite good – my version anyway. I had a more authentic version of it once, and I have to say, that resulted in a little more than a Maalox moment!
Palm oil and my stomach don't get along. Mackerel and my tongue don't get along. I don't think it gets along with my nose either. At least the person who made the more authentic version for me, a Nigerian friend, was kind enough to cut the fish heads off when he made it.
And what was that? It's called "ground nut soup with fowl and fufu." The fowl is supposed to be guinea fowl, but I used chicken when I made it. I switched the palm oil, most of it anyway, for canola oil – which is a lot less saturated. And instead of a strong-flavored fish, I chose something a little less fishy.
And my version, well, I didn't have to deal with fish heads at all. No eyeballs to consider eating. Thank goodness! I'm adventurous, but I don't know about those fish eyeballs!
Essentially it's got a peanut butter base, with I think tomatoes and peppers and such. I'm going off memory of something I made years ago. And it had fowl of one sort or another, fish and dumplings. Fufu is dumplings made of pounded yam, which I think I bought way too much off at the time. It's used to eat soup or stew with and you eat it all with your fingers.
I ate a lot of fufu during that particular time in my life. It was good anyway.
Well, I guess I could go on forever about stews and goulashes, the one's I've had and the one's I haven't. I'm not sure there's a difference between stews and goulashes. I'll have to find out. As far as I know – it's all the same.
In any case, I think I have a lot of planning to do and a lot of eating to do – just not all at once. I must not forget to track those calories!

While it does take time to enter the recipe in the tracker - once it's done - it's there until you delete. The upside to doing this is if you're planning to do a variation of that recipe, you can choose to "makeover" the recipe which starts you off with the recipe you're making over already entered into the Recipe Calculator - and you edit from there. I do that a lot.
I wish you much success on your journey to becoming the healthiest you can be!

Samantha & Jud
July 20
Fayetteville, Arkansas
From the bride: "My overall goal for the day was to create a relaxed and fun day. We used the colors orange, light pink, cream and gold to help set a warm mood and environment. For the groom's cake, we served sugar cookies from Great American Cookie Company. Anyone who knows Jud well knows he LOVES those cookies! I had a cute signature tree made on Etsy that we used as the guestbook. One of my favorite moments in the wedding process was probably our playlist. Jud and I picked out songs to play before the musician played. It reminded us of all the concerts we have been to together. I loved everything about the wedding day! I had a great time getting ready with my mom, sister and closest friends and taking pictures with Jud even though it was HOT. I loved being on my dad's arm as he walked me down the aisle. I had fun singing and dancing with Jud and friends at the receptions. We also had a great time going out in Dickson with our friends after the reception! All in all we had an amazing and carefree time!"

Good read...thanks!
This is a discussion on Interesting article on the concept of courage within the Concealed Carry Issues & Discussions forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; It's pretty neutral but at least it brings some good points out in the open. http://www.canada.com/nationalpost/n...d-ec71d66c9947...

Thx EricI think this can be very true - these days in particular.Prof. Darley says research has shown that people confronted with crises usually look to those around them for cues on how to respond.

This article says everything that we had a discussion about last night. I have went over this with my wife and daughter and explained to them the importance of having courage under fire. They too thought that like on tv if you are shot you drop instantly. I explained that you still would have enough to take out a gunman unless you sustained a head shot.
We have got to train our youth to fight back in such situations instead of cowering and obliging the crazy in his plan.

Yeah, the concept of leadership in a crisis has been brought home hard on a few occasions in the past. Everyone standing around looking freaked until you start barking orders. It's amazing how fast many people will change if someone just takes the lead! Not all but many will respond to a leader in a crisis.

Great read. Started an interesting discussion here. Of course, the military (usually) has a mindset conducive to getting the lead out once the crap hits the fan...

Interesting article and a good read. I have always wondered how I would react in a crisis. Right on about how we now are so risk adverse. Breeding a nation of people afraid to step up and out from the crowd.

From day one in the public school system, our kids are taught the "zero tolerance" policy of "no violence". This thought is always in the back of the children's mind that it is always wrong to respond to "violence" with "violence". This is usually confined to bullying or minor fighting, but the basic thought that any retaliation (fighting back) will result in suspension is ingrained in the students brain.parents need to take control of imprinting their children with the real world facts of life. There will be times that no one can protect you or your family but you.There will be times when you will have to defend yourself or your family. There are times that you will need to think for yourself and act for yourself.The laws that academia and politicians pretend make us safe, may in fact only embolden the criminal. Our kids need to know that it is OK to think on their own and to trust their intuitions. Chuck.
Very good article and certainly, it addresses a question on a lot of people's minds.
I also like what it says about being the one to break the ice. Being the one who asks, "What was that?" and gets the crowd moving. That's very true. Sometimes you're the only one to get things rolling while the others are waiting for confirmation that something bad is happening.

A lot of "follow the leader" mentality instead of being the leader. I don't know all the details, but maybe if one student in a classroom had rushed the shooter, some others may have followed?
eschew obfuscation
The only thing that stops bad guys with guns is good guys with guns. SgtD
The article makes some very good observations. Having the courage to take aggressive actions, as opposed to remaining passive, can mean the difference between lives and deaths. As a follow-up, I would encourage a look at this thread, http://www.combatcarry.com/vbulletin...ad.php?t=23822 , especially regarding the role played by private citizens in resolving the UT sniper incident.

Ear To Mind Presents Manhattan Saxophone Quartet at Symphony Space, 11/10
A Chicagoland native, clarinetist Aleksandr Karjaka has appeared with Stony Brook Contemporary Chamber Players, Lunatics at Large, Feist, Emperor X, Music From China, Eon Contemporary Ensemble, and is a former member of the Tactus Ensemble, Bowling Green New Music Ensemble and Perrysburg Symphony. He recently has recorded music videos with Mason Jar Music and CollegeHumor.Com. Performing staples of the contemporary literature by such composers as Louis Andriessen, Alban Berg, De Falla, Jacob Druckman, Gyorgi Ligeti, Withold Lutoslawski, Arnold Schoenberg and Igor Stravinsky, Mr. Karjaka has also been recorded on Albany Records on the upcoming New Music from Bowling Green CDs.
More on the Compositions: Growl, Spit, Shriek, & Pout, by Quinn Collins is a sassy and hyperactive cartoon romp. A montage of semi-improvised gestures, honks, clunks, cherry bomb explosions, and nose-thumbing noisemakers, it chucks darts at paint-filled balloons, puts on a scuba mask, finishes the empties at the end of the night, and pours sugar in your gas tank. The piece was originally written for a reading session at the 2009 Oregon Bach Festival Composers Symposium and this evening's premiere performance was recently revised for the Manhattan Saxophone Quartet and Mika Godbole.
Composer David Noon on his Six Bagatelles: "After hearing the expert performance of my Saxophone Quartet #1 by the Manhattan Saxophone Quartet, I eagerly wrote my Saxophone Quartet #2 for the group and dedicated it to them…One of my long-term projects is to write pieces for every instrument and standard instrumental ensemble with percussion, rather than piano. As of this date, I have written sonatas for violin, viola, piano, English horn, bass clarinet, French horn, and trombone with percussion. It only seemed natural to think of writing for saxophone quartet and percussion…My Six Bagatelles, op. 244, was written in New York City in the summer of 2012…Each of the bagatelles is designed to highlight a different aspect of the artistry of the Manhattan Saxophone Quartet to whom the piece is joyfully dedicated. "
Lee Hyla's We Speak Etruscan, for baritone saxophone and bass clarinet was written for saxophonist Tim Berne, bass clarinetist Tim Smith and Norm Roberson, Etruscan enthusiast, tour guide and portiere at the American Academy in Rome. The piece was written in 1992 in New York following Hyla's Rome Prize residency at the American Academy, and was premiered by Berne and Smith in 1993 at Jordan Hall in Boston. The title of the piece has multi-layered and ironic connotations, exemplified by the fact that the ancient Estruscans spoke a language that is now lost (only the alphabet is decipherable). The music's jazz-like riffs contrasting with moments of lyrical stillness provide a vehical that is a tour de force for these wind-instruments cousins.
Jacob T.V.'s Postnuclear Winterscenario, opus 49, was written on January 23, 1991, shortly after the outbreak of the Gulf War. The media during this time predicted apocalyptic consequences for the climate and the environment, similar to the effects of a nuclear war. They called it a postnuclear winterscenario. Ter Veldhuis decided to express his speechlessness in music. In only a few hours time the piece, for piano solo was written and is perhaps "simplest" piece he has ever written. All musical material was reduced to a minimum and the 'melody' consists of one single note, that is repeated constantly. The harmonic accompaniment consists of only four different notes and there are no real rhythmic, melodic, or harmonic developments. The main way of expression is in the repetition and the delivery, sometimes harsh and brutal, and other times poignant and melancholy. Postnuclear Winterscenario No. 10, based on the string quartet version, was arranged in the summer of 2001 at the request of the Aurelia Quartet.

Hurricane Sandy was "Largest Mass Transit Disaster in our Nation's History," Says Senator
At an emotional hearing today before the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, senators representing storm-damaged states described the damage wrought by Hurricane Sandy.
Senator Robert Menendez (D-NJ) said his state was the "epicenter" of the storm. He listed Sandy's toll upon New Jersey -- 39 dead, 231,000 homes and businesses damaged. And included in his list: the impact of the storm upon the region's transit system.
"The storm was the largest mass transit disaster in our nation's history. Four out of 10 of the nation's transit riders had their commutes disrupted by the storm, many still today," said Menendez. "NJ Transit alone had dozens of locomotives and rail cars damaged in the flooding and miles and miles of tracks damaged."
NJ Transit still has a rail line that is not operational, and the Port Authority says it will be weeks before it can restore Hoboken service on its trans-Hudson PATH train line.
New Jersey is requesting $37 billion in federal disaster aid, of which $1.35 billion would go to transit, roads and bridges.

MAUREEN BURNS: A cup of kindness
We think of Christmas as merry, happy and ho-ho-ho. It is, for most people. But this year, I am very aware of many who are not merry, happy and full of ho-ho-ho.
We took our grandsons to Coopersville to ride the Santa Train. As we left, there was a poster pinned on a door. The poster was for a fund raiser for the family who lost two children last week, when they crashed into the back of a school bus. I didn't realize those were their only children. Their loss is so profound, I don't know how people get through such ordeals.
In the past couple of weeks, and even this week, we have friends burying spouses, sisters. These people leave children and some leave grandchildren. They leave many others who mourn for them.
My friend told me at a Christmas party this week that he is struggling with what to do with his mother who was mentally there one day and the next day she wasn't.
Marriages are ending during this holiday season, while others are in great turmoil, on the edge.
My sibling is one of the many who have been without a job for way too long, yet still have children to make Christmas merry for.
Last week, I went to my chiropractor. He asked me the dumbest thing. He said, "Do you have any stress going on in your life now?"
I told him he might not want to ask that of any other women right before Christmas. Women are up to their eyeballs with stress, trying to get everything done for everyone they love. I think I even advised him to not ask his wife that right before Christmas. She might just hit him with a Christmas tree stand. The tree wouldn't be hard enough.
Yes, we are stressed, rushing, spending and tired. We definitely need a holiday and a vacation might even be better.
However, we must keep it all in perspective. All the holiday stress and madness is just that. We will likely all look back and think it was a very merry, happy and ho-ho-ho Christmas. But, when we pause and look around us, we see the many who are suffering for many different reasons. This can give us an instant shot of perspective.
As I sat in church yesterday, I thought of the many people I mentioned above. By chance, I opened the songbook to this hymn.
"We are many parts, we are all one body, and the gifts we have we are given to share. May the Spirit of love make us one indeed; one, the love that we share, one, our hope in despair, one, the cross that we bear."
As we begin our personal holiday, let us each remember to do what we can for those we know who may be hurting during this merry time. Whether it be a call, a note, a hug or a prayer — let us each open our hearts. We can't make the problems go away, but we can add a tiny bit of caring.
It is good to remember the words of Stephen Grellet. "I expect to pass through this world but once. Any good therefore that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again."
I wish each of you a merry, happy and ho-ho-ho holiday. But, if you are one of those suffering this season, I hope your burden is lightened by the caring of others.

He had had a sharp walk along a road none of the best, and the springiness was beginning to disappear from his tread.
There was color in his cheeks, life in his eyes, and springiness in his step.
The springiness of his step relaxed into a slouching gait, and his head fell forward.
Their air was one of dejection and there was no springiness in their gait.
It was sad to see how her step had suddenly lost its springiness.
In all that countryside Bill possessed an absolute monopoly of springiness and elasticity.
His shoulders were as square as ever but something had gone from the springiness of his gait.
Elastic′ity, springiness: power to recover from depression; Elas′ticness.
He carried the Kid's light weight easily, and he had not lost all his springiness of muscle.
On this property which Air has, of being condensed and rarefied by heat, its elasticity or springiness chiefly depends.

1. A World Cup Prank ... Featuring Nicolas Cage Movies? A guy in L.A. did a prank in Hollywood the other day, and had random people try to pronounce the names of World Cup soccer players. But he was secretly making them pronounce Nicolas Cage movies. For example, one guy's first name was "K-a-h-n", and his last name was "E-y-r-e" . . . or "Con-Air".
2. A bunch of soccer fans won money on Tuesday, because they placed bets that Uruguay's Luis Suarez would BITE SOMEONE during the World Cup, which he did. The odds were 175 to 1.
3. Underwear investigation?

4. Hulk Hogan pumps up the USA soccer team!! Watch it to the end, you will get chills! USA USA USA!
A guy in Miami was watching the World Cup match between the U.S. and Portugal on Sunday, and when Portugal scored that last-minute goal to tie it ... he fell backwards through a second-story WINDOW. Luckily he landed on an awning, and he's okay.

Plus, a soccer player from Uruguay named Luis Suarez BIT an Italian player on the shoulder yesterday during the World Cup. And this isn't even the first time he's done it. His nickname in Europe is the "Cannibal", because he's bitten TWO other players.
Someone who has EXPERIENCE with biting commented on it afterward. EVANDER HOLYFIELD sent out a tweet that said, quote, "I guess ANY part of the body is up for eating."
It looked like the U.S. was going to beat Portugal in the World Cup yesterday, and advance to the next round. But Portugal scored with just 30 SECONDS left, and it ended in a 2-2 tie.
If we'd won, we would have automatically made it to the next round. Now we need to at least tie Germany on Thursday ... but they're ranked number two in the world. Portugal is ranked fourth, and we're 13th.
Or we can lose by one goal, and STILL advance ... if Portugal and Ghana tie. There's also another slightly more complicated possibility that involves how many goals are scored.

Hot Argentinean Fans Show Up For Brazil ... WOW!!! --- See them all HERE
Plus, Watch a Bunch of Soccer Fans Fall Off the Back of a Moving Truck
It's not clear where this happened. But after Chile beat Australia in the World Cup on Friday, a bunch of Chilean soccer fans were celebrating in the back of a moving pickup truck ... while they were standing up and jumping around.
And there's a video online where the truck comes to a stop. Then the driver hits the gas, and four or five of them tumble out the back and land HARD on the street. They all eventually got back up though, so apparently they were okay.
And speaking of World Cup videos, Old Spice just posted a weird new World Cup ad

With noticeable improvements to page loading, pinch to zoom, and manipulating the tabbed "card stack" view, the only downside continues to be device availability. You already know that the technology behind Chrome for Android requires Ice Cream Sandwich to run, but there are reports that the update doesn't work on some unofficial ICS builds, so the install base may get somewhat smaller with this update.
Finally, one user reported that it was working in Italy, so Android users outside of North America may want to give this a short to see if that is an isolated incident, or if Chrome for Android is rolling out to more international users.
Custom ICS ROM users tread carefully, but everyone else hit up the market link below to get the update.

My Summer Vacation... Part 1
Okay... 9 days, 8 nights with the family in a remote part of New Hampshire. Beautiful weather. 85 each day no rain with the exception of a morning thunderstorm on day 3.
But as I look back on the week that was...All I remember is INFLATING THINGS! From pool toys, rafts, tubes to bicycle tires, a tractor tire inner tube and more. I understand, that is part of Dad's vacation responsibilities. At least I had a compressor and was not required to inflate these endless items like my Dad did in the old days... with his lungs.
But here's the thing... my Dad's air compressor is a few years old... you might say ancient.. an antique. I think it was used to blow up rafts on the Titanic. So...I'm happy to have something, anything... If you have ever used one of these wonders you know you turn it on... it pumps, and builds up air in these cyclinders. Simple enough. You attach the nozzle to what you want to inflate, and away you go.
A wonderful time saving device.
EXCEPT.. you see, my Dad's compressor has a quirk... the nozzle has a tendency to not stay attached to the hose as it builds up pressure.
Picture the scene... children waiting for a pool raft.... the compressor is cranking... and PPPPPPFFFSHSHSHSHSHSHSHSHSH! The nozzle pops off shooting the projectile hurdling towards unsuspecting innocent bystanders..who all duck at the last second as the nozzle becomes imbedded in the garage wall.
Good olde family fun. No one was hurt and everything that needed to get inflated, got inflated. No injuries to report with activity number one.
Check out activity number 2 of My Summer Vacation tomorrow. It involves the zip line.

The elimination of bacteria from the root canal system of a tooth is one of the primary goals of endodontic treatment.1,2 Instrumentation and irrigation are designed to achieve this outcome, but what happens after it is completed? Even if the root canal system is obturated, how does one prevent microleakage, especially if a temporary restorative material is used? The key is to assess the physical properties of the temporary material by looking at its depth of cure as well as its ability to bond to tooth structure on an interim basis. Often, the ideal solution would be to immediately place a full-coverage restoration at the completion of endodontic treatment. However, this may not be practical for a number of reasons.
At times, endodontic treatment may involve multiple appointments, and one needs to balance the need to place a strong durable restoration with the need to be able to easily remove the restoration without marring or altering any of the anatomy on the pulpal floor. To achieve this, one can turn to a wide range of materials, including a class of temporary composite resins. One such example is Interval LC (Temrex). This composite resin material is designed for use as a light-cured temporary restoration. It is based upon a diurethane dimethacrylate polymer, making it a very biocompatible restoration. This material has physical properties, making it an ideal restorative material for use in temporarily sealing endodontic access openings: a compressive strength of 10,000 psi, a diametral tensile strength (after curing) of 1,500 psi, water solubility less than 0.1%, and a depth of cure of up to 10.0 mm in 40 seconds.
In this clinical situation, the patient was seen in clinic for emergency treatment of the maxillary left first molar. Endodontic therapy was initiated, and due to limited time and a need to ensure that the acute infection had been brought under control, it was decided to place an interim temporary restoration in the access opening. The canals were cleaned and dried and the margins of the access cavity were examined to ensure that they were sound with no caries evident (Figure 1). This would ensure the creation of a good seal.
|Figure 1. The access opening as seen after endodontic instrumentation was completed.
|Figure 2. The access cavity was bulk-filled with the light-cured composite resin. Bonding resin was then applied and light-cured to seal the margins.
|Figure 3. The occlusion was adjusted immediately after light-curing the interim restoration.
|Figure 4. The interim restoration, as seen 2 weeks later. The margins were intact, with no clinical signs of microleakage or staining.
|Figure 5. Interval LC (Temrex).
A small cotton pellet was then placed at the bottom of the access preparation, ensuring that the root canal orifices were covered. Interval LC was placed into the access cavity so that it completely filled the hole (Figure 2). A layer of bonding resin was placed over the top of the material to help adapt it to the tooth walls. Next, it was light-cured for 40 seconds and then checked to be sure that the material was set completely. The occlusion was adjusted with a bur (SS White Finishing Bur FG7379) and the patient was dismissed (Figure 3).
When the patient returned in 2 weeks, the restoration margins appeared intact. There were no clinical signs of microleakage or staining along the interface between the walls of the preparation and the interim composite resin restoration (Figure 4).
Interval LC (Figure 5) was able to create a strong, durable bond to the tooth structure that withstood occlusal forces for a 2-week period. The literature indicates that, if the temporary filling materials are more than 3.0 mm in depth, they should create an adequate interim restoration.3,4 Interval LC, with its ability to bulk cure up to 10.0 mm in depth, allows for the creation of a strong interim restoration.
Removal of Interval LC is very easy. Once the initial occlusal portion is removed with a bur, the remainder can even be removed with an ultrasonic instrument, if there is concern about removing additional tooth structure. This interim composite material is softer than the surrounding tooth structure and slightly more transparent so it is easy to identify when re-entering the access preparation.
This brief case report has demonstrated a solution for creating a durable temporary seal for endodontic access preparations. The material used here is easily placed, seals to a depth of 10.0 mm in 40 seconds, can be immediately polished, and is easily removed to complete treatment.

The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources has developed a DiscoverE Program designed to help youngsters learn about their world. This series consists of four programs that allow young people to explore their environment with others of the same age and abilities.
Yellow Creek State Park is offering three of these program series this summer.
The second series — for children ages 9 through 13 — begins July 17 and will feature wildlife forensics, tracking, and three mysteries participants will be asked to solve.
Registration is required. Call the park office at (724) 357-7913. Children must be accompanied by an adult/ guardian.
Programs are:
• "Introduction to Wildlife Forensics," beginning at 6 p.m. July 17 in the environmental learning classroom.
Forensic science has had a huge impact on putting criminals behind bars. It's hard to watch TV and not hear something said about DNA or some other forensic science technique. This program will introduce students to the basics of wildlife forensics.
• "Tracking and Trailing," beginning at 7 p.m. July 17 in the learning classroom.
Participants will pretend they are a park ranger at Yellow Creek State Park. You hear a gun shot on the other side of the lake by IUP Sailing Base and you immediately start over to investigate the scene. You're about to make it to where you think the shot came from when a fisherman suddenly stops you and says he saw someone shoot a deer. It appeared to be hit and when the shooter saw you, he drove off in a hurry. There has been a wildlife crime committed! Now it's your job to find the culprit and find the wounded deer.
• "The Case of the Barn Bucks," beginning at 6 p.m. July 18 in the environmental learning classroom.
This activity is designed to give students a practical look into the science of wildlife forensics. Wildlife agencies use these and other techniques to solve crimes related to wildlife across the state each year. Wildlife cannot speak for itself, so conservation officers and concerned citizens try and do it for them. Join the fun in solving a wildlife crime.
• "The Case of Car Trunk Capers," beginning at 7 p.m. July 18 in the environmental learning classroom.
This activity is also designed to give students a practical look into the science of wildlife forensics.

"We Are Portland"
Mar 30, 2012 at 2:44 PM 0 Comments
Last Friday, the Office of Equity recognized Bureau of Transportation staff for their work with the immigrant and refugee community. Ronna Seavey, Abra McNair, and Janis McDonald received the We Are Portland award because of their work on Portland Sunday Parkways, the Pre-employment Training Program at IRCO (Immigrant and Refugee Community Organization), and translations of the bike/walk maps into Arabic, Burmese, Nepali, Somali, and Russian.
Polo Catalani of the Office of Equity and Human Rights says "Portland Bureau of Transportation has terrific momentum. Indeed our city is envied nationally for thoughtful urban transportation.
Everyone knows aboutPortland's Sunday Parkways' terrific public appeal and solid community health outcomes. We need these benefits flowing through our under-served parts of town too.
This award recognizes people and programs modeling a kinder and more sustainable distribution of the burdens and benefits of living in Portland. We Are Portland awards are for making a bigger and better Us."

Non Profit Informational Returns (990)
The Form 990 is perhaps the most complicated return. The IRS requires the most transparency of any other return, however it can also be used as a tool to tout the organization's accomplishments and to attract donors.
S Corporation Tax Returns (1120S)
The S Corporation is a tax beneficial entity, however it requires more sophisticated accounting and compliance to additional rules. Either way it is usually a win win for the taxpayer and their accountant.
Partnership Tax Returns (1065)
A business that has more than one owner that is not also a corporation is a partnership. If the partner is not a spouse than business owners must file a partnership return, which can be complicated. Partnerships can be tax advantageous because they are very flexible in terms of allocating ownership & deductions. However, all profits are subject to Self Employment Tax.
Sole Proprietor Tax Returns (Schedule C)
A Sole Proprietor is the default designation for a business that has not been organized as either a Corporation or Partnership. It is by far the easiest entity to maintain, requires the least amount of accounting, and is subject to fewer rules than other entities. Earnings from Sole Proprietorships are not considered separate from the owner's income. The business activity is reported on a schedule C which part of the owner's individual income tax return; all earnings are subject to Self Employment Tax.
Individual Income Tax Returns (1040)
All monetary benefit received by an individual is considered income and is potentially taxable by the IRS, unless it is explicitly excluded from income; material goods and services are also considered income. Every individual or married couple who has income is required to file an Individual Income Tax Return, unless their income does not reach certain thresholds set forth by the IRS in which case they are not required to file.
Limited Liability Companies (LLC)
A Limited Liability Company is not considered a taxable entity by the IRS. An LLC is a state designation that is taxed as a Sole Proprietorship, Partnership, or S Corporation.
Startup Consulting and Tax Planning
Before the first year of business has been concluded it is very important that business owners meet with a tax professional. A tax professional can provide a business owner with insight on their potential tax liability, and also how to minimize their tax liability. Probably the most valuable service a tax professional can provide is information on how to firs avoid an IRS audit and second how to protect themselves if an audit occurs.
Entity Formation
There are a variety of ways a business can be organized, and each business entity has its pros and cons. A tax professional can educate a business owner on which entity would be best for their business, properly setup the entity, and educate the business owner on how to comply with the requirements of the entity.

Quick definition: antral follicles are small follicles (2 to 10 mm in diameter) that are visible on the ovaries via ultrasound. They are also known as resting follicles.

They appear in the beginning of the menstrual cycle. Their number can indicate the amount of microscopic primordial follicles contained within the ovary.

An ultrasound exam to count the number of antral follicles may be performed as a part of fertility testing. This is known as an antral follicle count (AFC). More on this below.

A low number of antral follicles may indicate poor ovarian reserves. In other words, the total number of eggs left in the ovaries may be low. Low antral follicle counts may also predict a poorer response to fertility drugs meant to stimulate ovulation.

An abnormally high number of antral follicles may indicate PCOS.

What Are Antral Follicles? Why Are They an Important Fertility Predictor?

To understand what antral follicles are, it'll help to have a basic understanding of follicles.

In the ovary, follicles are tiny fluid-filled sacs that contain immature eggs, or oocyte. Every follicle contains one egg. You are born with all the eggs you will ever have. As time passes, follicles (and eggs) die. This begins even before birth.

An unborn baby girl has the most eggs she will ever have when she is just 12 weeks gestation. At this time, the ovaries contain 6 to 7 million follicles. By the time that girl's first period comes, she will have just 500,000 left.

How the Female Reproductive System Works

Less than 1% of the follicles in your ovaries will ever reach ovulation.

Theoretically, if we could know how many follicles are inside your ovaries, we could have an idea of how many eggs you have left.

Unfortunately, it is impossible to count the total number of potential eggs (or follicles) inside the ovaries.

Follicles start off very, very small.

All the follicles in the ovary start off as primordial follicles. A primordial follicle is just 25 micrometers. That is 0.025 millimeters. It is impossible to see with the naked eye, let alone on an ultrasound.

Every day, primordial follicles are "awakened" by hormonal signals. They start to mature. As long as they continue to survive and graduate to the next stage, they grow larger and larger.

One of those stages is the tertiary stage. During this time, the follicle gains a fluid filled cavity known as the antrum. Follicles with an antrum are known as antral follicles.

An antral follicle measures between 2 and 10 mm in diameter.

For some perspective, an antrum follicle that is now 5 mm is 200 times bigger than it was as a primordial follicle!

Antrum follicles are finally visible on the ultrasound. Research has found that the number of active antrum follicles on the ovaries correlates to the potential number of eggs left.

We still can't know how many follicles total there are. But when a woman has very few antral follicles developing on the ovaries, we know her ovarian reserves are low.

Having low ovarian reserves doesn't mean you can't get pregnant. But it does mean your ovaries may not respond to fertility drugs as well as a woman with better ovarian reserves.

Ovarian Reserve Testing: What It Can and Can't Tell You

What Is an Antral Follicle Count (AFC)?

An antral follicle count is a fertility test. It's done via transvaginal ultrasound, sometimes between cycle day 2 and 5.

The ultrasound tech will look at each ovary and count the number of follicles measuring between 2 and 10 mm.

Your doctor may order this test in order to...

Evaluate your ovarian reserves

Make a diagnosis of primary ovarian insufficiency

Help diagnosis polycystic ovarian syndrome

Give you an idea of where your fertility stands in relation to your age (do you have more, less, or an average number of follicles compared to others your age)

The test may be done as part of a fertility workup. Or, it may be ordered before a fertility treatment cycle.

Having too few antral follicles may indicate your ovaries won't react well to fertility drugs.

The skill of the ultrasound technician and the ultrasound equipment itself can affect the results. If one center gets a poor result, consider getting a second opinion.

How Many Antral Follicles Are Normal?

Remember that it is normal for your ovarian reserves to go down as you age. So, what's normal for a 25 year old isn't necessarily normal for a 38 year old.

An antral follicle count of 3 to 6 is considered low.

Again, remember, this doesn't mean you can't get pregnant. It only means your ovaries may not react well to the fertility drugs.

One study conducted antral follicle counts in women with proven fertility. (Most studies on AFC were done on infertile women.)

To be included in this study, the woman had to...

Have regular menstrual cycles, varying from 21 to 35 days in length

Be ovulating, proven by having a temperature rise on a basal body temperature chart

Have conceived at least one child in the past, within one year's time

No known hormonal or endocrinological disease

Stopped birth control at least two months period to the study

Here were their average antral follicle counts (AFC), along with the range seen (from the lowest to highest AFC count.)

Age range	Average AFC	Lowest AFC	Highest AFC

25 to 34	15	3	30

35 to 40	9	1	25

41 to 46	4	1	17

A trial date for Richard Parker, the man accused of placing an explosive device which killed his in-laws, Jon and Marion Setzer, this past February, has been set for Tuesday, Oct. 28.
Parker, who is being held at Riverbend Maximum Security Institution in Nashville, appeared in Judge John Wootten Jr.'s courtroom on Tuesday for a motions hearing in which the trial date was set.
Parker last appeared in Wootten's courtroom on Feb. 18, when he pleaded "not guilty to the two counts of first-degree murder, two counts of premeditated first-degree murder and unlawful possession of a prohibited weapon. During the hearing, Wootten had commented that he hoped to move the case along swiftly and reiterated his thoughts again on Tuesday.
"We are here about a schedule. I let everybody know I wanted to move this along. I need to know where we are in discovery," he said.
Prosecutors, Assistant District Attorneys Brian Fuller and Jimmy Lea, said that they had provided 83 investigative reports and two discs to Parker's public defenders, including Bill Cather who represented him on Tuesday morning; however, they were still waiting on some DNA evidence and evidence related to the explosive device to come back from state and federal labs.
Lea said they hoped to have the labs back in June.
"I'd like to have a trial date set. Otherwise it is going to be an elusive concept," Wootten told Cather. "I want to expedite things here for your client and the state. I would expect this would take a few days to try. We all need to move along … fair enough?"
Wootten also noted that he was going to unseal the court file that had requested to be remained sealed.
The next motions hearing for Parker is set for Friday, June 20, at 10 a.m.
According to initial Tennessee Bureau of Investigation reports, an unknown package containing an explosive device was placed at the Setzers' home on Monday, Feb. 10. Jon Setzer was killed immediately. Martion Setzer was LifeFlighted to Vanderbilt University Medical Center for critical injuries and died two days later.
Parker, 49, married to the Setzers' daughter Laura, resided with his wife behind the Setzers' property on Vance Lane prior to the incident. Parker owned and operated Legacy Restorations, Inc. According to the Legacy Restorations website, the company began in 1989 and offers historic restoration services in Tennessee and the surrounding states. The address the Parkers shared with the Setzers is also listed as the business address.
His past criminal history includes being convicted of arson in the early nineties in Giles County while renovating a cabin. Parker was given four years' probation and paid $40,000 restitution.

text: The McCoys recorded very little original material during their early years at Bang Records; most of it was supplied by the Feldman-Goldstein-Gottehrer production team, much of which consisted of unexceptional derivations of the "Hang on Sloopy" prototype. Notable exceptions were the folky "Sorrow," covered for a Top Ten hit by the Merseys in Great Britain (and covered by David Bowie on Pin Ups a decade later), and the adventurous Middle Eastern-tinged garage psychedelia of "Don't Worry Mother," their best cut besides "Hang on Sloopy." The McCoys proved unusually durable after their career as a teen pop band; in the late '60s, they broke from their Bang producers to record psychedelic and progressive rock for Mercury. Most of the group joined Johnny Winter's backup band in the early '70s, and in 1973 Rick Derringer joined the Edgar Winter group as lead guitarist and vocalist, after which he had a successful hard rock solo career. ~ Richie Unterberger, Rovi

Sept. 28, 2002
PEACHTREE CITY, Ga. -- Rainy skies finally gave way Friday, allowing the University of Tennessee men's tennis team a chance to get back into the swing of things at the adidas Invitational.
After inclement weather delayed all but two Volunteer matches Friday, Tennessee saw six players compete in fifteen matches Friday evening and early Saturday. Two Volunteers, Simon Rea and Mark Dietrich, have earned spots in the "A" flight consolation semifinals.
After winning his first-round match in the "A" flight Friday afternoon, Wade Orr defeated Blake Baratz, from Wisconsin, 6-3, 6-3. Orr then went on to lose 6-3, 6-1 in the quarterfinal round to the No. 1 seed, Duke's Michael Yani.
Junior Simon Rea rebounded from yesterday's matches later this afternoon by overtaking Arizona State's Clinton Letcher in the consolation bracket by a score of 6-2, 6-4. Rea then went on to claim a spot in the "A" flight consolation semifinals by notching a win against Wisconsin's Scott Green 6-3, 6-1.
Mark Dietrich, the other Vol competing in the "A" flight, joins Rea in the consolation semis. Dietrich opened up things with a 6-4, 6-4 loss to Duke's Ludovic Walter. Once in the consolation bracket, Dietrich dispatched Northwestern senior Josh Axler 6-4, 6-2. In his next match, Dietrich outplayed Duke's Jonathan Stokke 3-6, 7-6, 7-6 to earn his place in the consolation semifinals.
In the "B" flight, Mark Henderson got off to a winning start against Northwestern's Russell Bennett, recording a 6-2, 6-1 victory. Henderson lost his next match however, dropping a 7-5, 6-3 decision to Ryan Heinberg from Duke The Vol sophomore managed to right the ship against his next opponent in the consolation bracket, defeating Heinberg's Blue Devil teammate, Darin Goldstein, 6-2, 6-1.
Two Vol netters saw their first collegiate action Friday night. Freshman Vincent Perna got his Tennessee career off to a fast start, storming all the way to the semifinals in the "B" flight. Northwestern's Justin Hoeveler was Perna's first victim, losing to the New York native 6-1, 6-2. Perna then outplayed Arizona State's Jonathan Scott 7-6, 6-3. The freshman's impressive run was finally brought to a halt on Saturday, when Perna was forced to default his semifinal match against Texas Christian University's Jacob Martin. The young Vol trailed 7-5, 3-1 when an ankle injury forced him to retire.
Rawl Martin, Tennessee's other freshman netter, began his Volunteer career against TCU's Daniel Scholten. Martin lost by a score of 6-1, 6-1. In Martin's next match, he was defeated by Duke freshman Stefan Rozycki 6-2, 6-2.
Tennessee Associate Head Coach Chris Mahony was happy with his team's effort through the opening rounds of play, but found plenty of room for improvement.
"I'm proud of our guys; they're fighting hard," Mahony said. "I don't think any of them are playing their best tennis, but for the most part, we're competing as hard as we can and looking to improve."
Doubles play will begin Saturday night, with two rounds taking place before the flight is completed on Sunday. Singles semifinals and finals are also to take place Sunday.

Brian Fletcher hit .636 (7-for-11) with a 1.545 slugging percentage in the Auburn Classic as the Tigers won two of three games over the weekend. He collected three home runs, including a walk-off solo homer in the 10th to beat Boston College on Friday night. Fletcher had 11 RBI during the weekend, has hit safely in all six games this season and has an 11-game hitting streak dating back to last season.
It wasn't just last weekend that Fletcher showed his offensive skills. Through two weeks of play, Fletcher leads the SEC in RBI (17), home runs (four) and total bases (26), is second in slugging percentage (1.040) and 11th in batting average (.440). His 17 RBI are the most by an Auburn player through six games since Gabe Gross drove in 18 in the first six games of the 2000 season.
Fletcher is Auburn's first national Player of the Week since Josh Donaldson in February of 2007. Donaldson was named Collegiate Baseball's National Player of the Week in mid-February after batting 7-for-13 with two homers and 11 RBIs in Auburn's sweep of Hofstra.
Fletcher now has 31 career home runs 113 career RBI. His home run total is good enough for ninth-place in Auburn history. He needs just six more this season to move into fourth-place all-time for the Tigers.

John Mayer Says His Relationship With Katy Perry Feels Human
February 11, 2013 | Posted by
In an interview with CBS Sunday Morning (via People), John Mayer said his relationship with Katy Perry feels "human".
He said: "I don't feel like I'm in a celebrity relationship. For the first time in my life I don't feel like I'm in a celebrity relationship. I really don't. I'm not in a high profile – I know it's high profile. It's hard to explain. For me it feels like something that's very human."
When asked if he sees himself getting married, he replied: "Of course. I mean, I'm still the kid from Connecticut. That's what you do."
Mayer and Perry have went public with their relationship, holding hands while Patti Smith performed Clive Davis and The Record Academy's Annual Pre-Grammy Gala at the Beverly Hilton on Saturday.
