Comments On May 21, 2013:These nerf bars are great. The metal looks great. I ordered black nerf bars and I dropped it right when I opened it on concert. They were fine not a scratch. I'm some what of a new rider and the directions did not help me to much. Don't let that stop you from getting these. All around these are badass and I would recommend this to anyone who's low on money and wants great nerf bars. They will save your ass from crashing I promise you that.

Comments On Mar 10, 2013:Great item, highly recomend them over the more expensive one's! why pay more for the same item when you can get it cheaper and better!? I like how there not super strong because if they bend a bit you can bend them back.

Comments On Mar 07, 2013:I purchased this item several years ago. They have held up very well. Since I've had them on the machine it's saved my legs several times. The net area is large. That's a good thing. I have broken two nets. Sewing them back together with fishing line (Spider Wire) extends the life. I would recommend this product. The chrome cleans-up great.

The Kitty Kabinet is a beautiful piece of cat furniture for your home designed to also hide a litter box. The nearly airtight construction, due to our unique flapper door, not only hides the unsightly mess and stops the tracking of litter, it also traps any unpleasant odor. The bottom of the Kabinet is lined with extremely durable plastic laminate to allow for easy clean up of tracking or accidents outside the litter box. The Kitty Kabinet is a functional space saving unit that is ideal for condo or apartment living where space is at a premium.
The upper storage cubby provides more enclosed storage than the base Kitty Kabinet, features the raised panel doors and includes brass pulls to match the hardware on the base Kabinet.
*The base unit measures 32 5/8″ Wide x 28 1/16″ High x 17 1/2″ Deep. It weights about 60 pounds.
*The inside measurements are: 29 1/2″ Wide x 19″ High x 16 1/4″ Deep
*The maximum size of the litter box that will fit inside is 16″ x 24″
*The size of the front opening with the doors open is 29 1/2″ Wide x 19″ High
*The flapper door can be constructed on either side of the unit (specify your LEFT or RIGHT when looking at FRONT view of unit).
*The "cubby" unit measures 32 5/8″ Wide x 18 1/8″ High x 17 1/2″ Deep.
*Cubby Inside dimensions are 29 1/2″ Wide x 16″ High x 16 1/4″ Deep
*Size of cubby front opening with doors open is 29 1/2″
*Cubby weighs approximately 30 pounds.
*Total height of base + storage cubby is 46 3/16″
Our Kabinets are made from real wood; a combination of solid wood and cabinet grade plywood. No particle or fiber board products. Also, the Kabinet is wide enough to allow for a landing area just inside the unique flapper door. This gives the cat some room inside the Kabinet so it is not jumping directly into the litter box. And after the cat jumps out of the litter box and onto this landing area, most of the extra litter caught on their feet falls off inside the Kabinet, minimizing tracking outside of the Kabinet.
Our exclusive flapper door uses opaque acrylic for admitting light into the Kabinet, while trapping odors inside. The flapper is held in place by a solid wood frame that matches the side of the cabinet. This minimizes the appearance of the door, maintaining the look of fine furniture.
The bottom of the Kabinet is lined with extremely durable plastic laminate to allow for easy clean up of tracking or

1. | schtick | ||
Yiddish slang meaning "gimmick" that has come to mean "someone's signature behavior." In the 1940's, Jewish comedians in the Catskills referred to their comedy routines as their schtick. "Joey's schtick is talking too loud."
2. | schtick | ||
presentation or sales pitch, from yiddish slang, implying phoniness or slickness, lack of substance with focus on style. Grandma Zeidel gave her usual shtick for serving take-out for dinner instead of cooking, claiming that her oven was broken and the cleaning lady forgot to do the dishes again.
3. | schtick | ||
a routine. This could refer to a number of different things, but generally refers
to a type of comic routine. Yiddish origin. I saw Don Rickles in an interview about
Toy Story 2 and he was performing the same old schtick, but he still was really funny. |
4. | schtick | ||
Some's schtick is their patter, their sales pitch, their routine. It can also simply be something that person is interested him. "I see Jim Carey's still trying to get by with that funny-face schtick..."
5. | schtick | ||
the party piece of an entertainer, patter, German - stueck. Enters English from Yiddish singing is not my schtick
6. | schtick | ||
1.A girl who is slightly chubby but cute.
2. The border between a fat girl and a cute girl, while maintaining cuteness. Damn! That girl is schtick. Look at those curves.
7. | schtick | ||
Schtick has two meanings.
1. First of which is talking about something your good at or a hobby of yours that you really enjoy. 2. Saying that something is cool, usualy something thats hippyish. 1. Dude, guitar is my schtick.
2. Wow your 20 year old hippy van is pretty schtick. |

That's because of a federal rule calling for the gradual replacement of old-style markings with new, retroreflective signs. The thermoplastic signs catch light from headlights and bounce it back, making them brighter and more visible.
"You've got an aging population and there's a need for higher reflectivity for road safety," Floyd County Manager Blaine Williams explained.
Rome and Floyd County already have replaced some of their signs — starting with regulatory and warning markers.And both governments have received state and federal money toward the project.
"It's a mandate, but it's not completely unfunded," Williams said.
The Floyd County Commission signed off last week on an agreement with the Georgia Department of Transportation to put new thermoplastic road stripe markings and signs on 63.1 miles of county roads. The project is estimated at $443,366.61.
There's no local match required, although there's a standard clause that the county would pay for any right of way or utility relocation that may be needed. Williams said that's unlikely with replacements.
"There's not a lot of cost involved," he told the board.
The project area covers 14 roads: Barker Road, Booze Mountain Road, Burnett Ferry Road, Calhoun Road, Callier Springs Road, Eden Valley Road, Horseleg Creek Road. Huffaker Road, Maple Road, Mathis Road, Old Dalton Road, Old Rockmart Road, Park Avenue and Wax Road.
The city of Rome also is preparing for a new round of installations.
Bids are being accepted through Jan. 17 to replace the striping, pavement markers and street signs on approximately 24 miles of road within the city limits.
The project area covers 32 streets, including Calhoun Avenue, Division Street, Lavender Drive, Redmond Road, Pennington Avenue and Old Airport Road.
About half of traffic fatalities occur at night, although only about one quarter of travel occurs after dark, according to the FHWA. The agency notes that intoxication and fatigue contribute to the high rate of nighttime crashes but decreased visibility is a constant factor.

Newberry — Greenville native and well-known alternative rock singer-songwriter Edwin McCain is returning to Newberry this year. McCain always gives a wonderful performance and audiences are in for an extraordinary night at the Newberry Opera House on Friday at 8 p.m. Nothing compares to the joy of a singer/songwriter who loves making and writing hits.
Now equipped with his own band known as the Edwin McCain Band and new album Mercy Bound this marks two decades for McCain since he first entered a studio. Having toured with long time friends Hootie and The Blowfish McCain is here with his beautiful lyrics to make you experience that loving feeling you felt when you first heard "3 a.m." or "I'll Be."
McCain, known for his personal and honest lyrics, writes most of his roots-based material on acoustic guitar, but the influences of his band contribute elements of funk, jazz, and blues to the overall sound. A mix of acoustic ballads and infectious rock numbers are his formula for an illuminous and electrifying show, which will surly leave you wanting more.
Tickets are available at the Newberry Opera House box office. For reservations call 276-6264 or visit our website www.newberryoperahouse.com

Nearly every option described within the Fortune 500-funded Brookings Institution 2009 "Which Path to Persia?" report in regards to US-initiated regime change in Iran has been carried out to the letter. From proposals to fund and arm terrorist organizations like the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK), to fomenting foreign-backed "color revolutions" in the streets of Tehran, to carrying out covert US-Israeli military operations within Iran itself, it is clear that the Brookings Institution either was writing the playbook on conquering Iran or was reading from it when compiling "Which Path to Persia?" The only remaining options left are airstrikes and invasion. Delete the scoop?

Damn straight, skippy! Not that I need to list any reasons why I'm choosing this movie, but let me say this anyway: giant animals vs Ida Lupino and Marjoe fucking Gortner. It's time for the Film Club to do this shit up good!
Click here for Netflix info, which includes a magical insta-download. For those of you who live in Los Angeles, you can see the BIG animals on the BIG screen at 10pm Saturday August 9 at the Silent Movie Theatre. Omigod, life is so good!
The movie: The Food of the Gods
The due date: Monday, September 8
In other news, JA has written a magnificent guest post over at The Film Experience, listing his Top 10 Leading Ladies of Horror. It's a thoughtful list, and I agree with his choices- especially considering it's more about the performances than about the characters. I'm glad to see someone else giving Shelley Duvall some love- I was getting lonely in my love of Wendy Torrance.
Because he's awesome, JA then heads back to his home turf My New Plaid Pants and gives us 10 runners up...or is that runner ups? Meh, either way, it's all about the blondes.

In the space of two years (2003-2005), ROSANNE CASH lost her mother, stepmother (JUNE CARTER CASH), and - of course - her father JOHNNY CASH. The result for her musically is the most intense and personal of all of her many releases over a 25-year-plus career.
Along with Gnarls Barkley, Corinne Bailey Rae has made one of the most spectacular debut splashes of the first half of this year. This 27 year-old, Leeds, England native's eponomous album is a versatile, flowing, 11-song listen that sounds perfect for these hot summer days (and nights).
XPN Artist To Watch - October 2005 The Magic Numbers Drawing inspiration from many sources, the band craft a sound which, like The Flaming Lips or Beck, is coming from everywhere but is uniquely theirs. more....
Coming off their expansive rock-opera, The Hazards of Love, the Portland-based band The Decemberists return to form on their new album The King Is Dead From the opening Springsteen-esque harmonica riff of the album leadoff "Don't Carry It All," it's apparent that there's different tone and atmosphere set for this collection.
The unavoidable truth about the new album from Corinne Bailey Rae is that it comes from one of the most painful places one can imagine. The Sea, the highly anticipated follow-up to her Grammy nominated debut album, features songs that were written on both sides of the unexpected passing of her husband. The result is an album that is as you would imagine, personal and poignant.
One of the most popular bands in the world is also one of the most maligned bands in the world. There are a lot of people who really hate Coldplay, but it's kind of hard for me to understand why. More workman-like and less arty than Radiohead, and not as spiritual or "deep" as U2, Coldplay occupies some sort of a musical no-man's land that is not completely without merit.
For their third album - and their first for a major label - Interpol certainly stretches out musically. Known and beloved for their various, somewhat gloomy Joy Division-esque atmospherics, the New York-based band made an effort to change things around this time, and they have achieved that.
A perfect mixture of past & present, LCD Soundsystem's latest - Sound Of Silver - is this year's very best punk/disco/indie rock combination. The album's nine tracks are all instantly appealing, the perfect combination of groove and irony and sonic hoopla.
Lily Allen is January's Artist To Watch. Winner of 2006 Digital Music Awards, Lily Allen is the 21 year old singer songwriter who has been tearing up the web lately. >Here's a bona fide Internet/My Space success story. Lily Allen's much downloaded tunes and much read muses on her personal page were the sparks that launched her promising career. With "Smile" already a U.K. number one, and her album dropping this week in the U.S., is superstardom pending? Perhaps it is, and, if it happens, I for one will be watching with interest because Allen is one quirky, unpredictable could-be pop star.
The Decemberists' major label debut is a wonderful example of a band expanding its' fan base without forgetting what got them here in the first place. The Crane Wife is a multi-faceted, highly enjoyable gem of a record that sounds like will it get better with every listen.

Congratulations! Very cool that it is something you need too.
Congratulations Kim, I hope you enjoy your new Proxxon. What' more there are some very useful add-ons to look at, like the drill stand and possibly the flex shaft. Dennis.
Yes, I think a flexi shaft will be an essential. I have been struggling with mine for some time so I am very happy to have won!
Thanks again CooksonGold :-)
Well done Kim, it was a beautiful necklace.
Thanks folks!
My drill arrived and it's fab. I think some accessory shopping in order :-)
Thank you CooksonGold, it's much appreciated.
Thank you hannalicious!

Concerned Father Explains: Gay Marriage Can Lead To Anal Sex, Ejaculation Inside Of A Colon
by Andrew Kirell
3:53 pm, March 12th, 2013
Testifying against same-sex marriage this week, concerned Minnesotan father and husband Mike Frey
explained that gay marriage can lead to something called sodomy, and
thus horrors! ejaculation inside of a colon, leading to the AIDS
and all kinds of horrific lesions.
Frey asked that the Minnesota House not pass a bill legalizing gay
marriage because people who marry do have sex, and when same-sex people
are married, they do have sex theres something called sodomy.
He then explained to the legislators that sodomy involves
ejaculation inside of a colon, which, unlike ejaculation inside a
vagina, does not lead to a pregnancy nor does the sperm have a barrier
of entry to the blood flow often leading to AIDS. And so, he said, gay
marriage = the spread of AIDS to society at large.
At the end of his testimony, Frey concluded that gay marriage will
provide a health risk to society at large, and place financial burden
on the people of Minnesota to support the gays and their spreading diseases.
So, hurry along Minnesota lawmakers, please! Do NOT legalize gay
marriage. Otherwise, as Frey warned, many more Minnesotans and
eventually Americans will experience a rash, almost like a boils and a
very raw skin, that broke out on the hands, feet, butt, mouth.

I audit outside counsel's competence with technology. The audit is driven by fear fear of wasting company money on low value-added work. The audit tests my hypothesis that lawyers, as a group, are deficient in their use of technology and that a direct consequence of this incompetence is that clients, like my company, Kia Motors America, outlay outrageous sums for unnecessary busywork. Thus far, my audit has confirmed my hypothesis.
The audit currently consists of four mock assignments that a law firm associate must complete using standard software (e.g., Word, Excel, Acrobat). Done correctly i.e., utilizing some basic, built-in functions of those programs the first of these assignments should take less than 20 minutes. Done incorrectly i.e., not relying on the functions the assignment takes more than five hours to complete.
Not a single associate at any of the nine firms I have audited has come anywhere close to the 20-minute mark on the first assignment. That is, all of the associates approached the assignment in ways that would have required five to 15 times longer than necessary. At $200 to $400 per associate hour, such inefficiency suggests to me that, indeed, waste is a righteous concern.
Failing my audit has repercussions. Of the nine major firms I have audited, all nine have failed some more miserably than others. A few of these firms were auditioning for work and were not retained. Other firms, including longtime incumbents, agreed to rate reductions. One firm, for example, took an across-the-board 5 percent reduction that will be restored if they are able to pass a subsequent audit. Another firm agreed to a significant investment in associate training and has worked closely with me to upgrade a substantial number of their internal practices and processes. Finally, audit results influence my review of counsels' billing entries.
My audit is a prototype and, like its creator, not without patent shortcomings. That the audit delivers material benefits despite its flaws is a testament to both the robustness of the audit concept and the depth of the legal professions' technology problem.
Technology: The audit focuses more on competence than technology, but technology still matters. Particular points of emphasis include peripherals (e.g., a second screen) and mobility (e.g., mobile Wi-Fi). But the audit is primarily concerned with the proper use of core features of ubiquitous programs (Word, Excel, etc.).
People: People, not machines, are the common source of technology-related inefficiencies. As a group, lawyers suffer from a proficiency deficit, i.e., an inability to utilize the technology tools at their disposal. More pointedly, few lawyers are trained to use their principal software programs. Training is fundamental. Business software programs are not particularly intuitive. The requisite skills have to be learned. At a certain level of expertise, self-teaching becomes easier. But, self-taught or not, actual learning is essential. Lawyers, however, are neither trained nor tested; they are left to their own devices.
Process: As I see it, the failure to train lawyers to properly use what have long been basic tools of their profession is symptomatic of a much broader aversion to system building within large law firms. Weak ties and big egos stifle genuine organizational change. These challenges are positively correlated with size. An unfortunate consequence is that larger firms tend to promote their economy of scope without developing their economies of scale. They cross-sell their expertise; they create cross-functional teams. But large firms do too little to propagate best practices, institutionalize deep knowledge, or systematize their basic functions. The sole advantage to scale becomes the capacity to throw expensive bodies at a problem. It did not surprise me that of the nine firms I have audited thus far, the best performer was the only firm outside the Am Law 200. That small but prominent firm was markedly better than the two audited firms in the Am Law Top 10 (revenue).

Both this and the follow up article were interesting and entertaining to read. While the ability to use basic tools to perform true "lawyering" are important, we have seen tremendous inefficiencies in the processes firms use to perform document review. Given that document review can easily constitute the largest component of a client's bill, that may be a good place to assess firms' efficiencies and technological abilities.
We sometimes work with firms that try to apply the "tried and true" paper document review methodologies to electronic documents, generally providing dismal results in terms of cost and efficiency. We also work with firms that have a documented review workflow, defined QC checks, statistical sampling and other modern process management tools. Those firms almost always get through their review in a shorter amount of time at lower cost and with little pain, particularly at production.
Given that document review can be highly structured, just like any other "manufacturing" process, it would be interesting to see the results of an audit on that aspect of legal practice. Efficiencies during this phase will pay off handsomely for both firms and corporate clients. Firms that understand this will, I suspect, be better positioned to retain their clients.
Thanks again for a wonderful read.

Wow, what a concept! I guess that's one way of screening who will be working on your case. I just wrote a brief piece in response to two similar articles, related to young lawyers and their familiarity (or lack thereof) with technology.
Looking forward to part 2.
V. Sheri Towne - the Practical Paralegal LLC
First - Great concept which would benefit clients of smaller firms as well! Frankly, the first thing that ought to happen with #1 and #3 is to delegate the drafting task to a seasoned paralegal. The audit would test the paralegal as described and then test the associate/partner on the ability to efficiently add value to the resultant draft work product (e.g. using "track changes" to make modifications directly to the document rather than handwritten changes to a printed version). Appropriate personnel using appropriate technology leads to the best cost savings. Word processing creates the skeleton, paralegals flesh out the draft factual and substantive details, lawyers provide their legal expertise to make sure the final product meets tactical, strategic objectives based on their legal and subject matter expertise.

PAULA PASCHE: Hey Lauren Silberman, most men couldn't hack it in NFL either
It was a bad idea from the start.
Lauren Silberman paid $275 to test her luck at an NFL Regional Combine at the New York Jets facility over the weekend.
She was one of 37 kickers — the other 36 were more qualified and happened to be males — hoping to catch the eye of an NFL scout.
Silberman, a former soccer player, was done after kicks of 19 and 13 yards due to an injured quadriceps.
In a move that came off as a publicity stunt, the 28-year-old may have set back women's athletic gains by several years. She didn't appear prepared. She had injured her leg earlier and didn't kick until Sunday in order to rest it. She should have passed if she knew she wasn't 100 percent.
All eyes were on her and she failed. Not just at kicking, but at making a wise decision.
Not saying there will never be a woman who plays in the NFL, but it's doubtful. It's likely a woman more qualified than Silberman will want to try out as a kicker again, but it's unlikely one will ever sign an NFL contract.
It's not just women. Most of the adult male population couldn't hack it either.
How many college kickers take the next step to the NFL? Not many.
It's a brutal game. It's why the players make big bucks in careers that routinely last just a handful of seasons. Continued...
Yes, Silberman was attempting to earn a job as a kicker.
Look, kickers are not bubble-wrapped before they enter a game. They've got 11 opposing special teamers — guys with an extra crazy gene in their DNA — coming in their direction.
Kickers are can't be roughed up per the rule book, but they are at times. There's no stopping it.
Plus, a kicker is the last line of defense on a kickoff return.
Lions veteran Jason Hanson has made more than a few tackles in his 21 seasons with the Lions. Same for the punters. They don't kick and jog off the field, they are part of the play.
Oh, and if a woman ever took the field there would be a bounty on her. No one would ever say the words out loud (if they were smart), but she would be targeted big-time. Besides being tough, NFL players usually possess XXXL egos.
A woman on the field in the NFL? My guess is most of the players wouldn't want to be a part of it. Some of them are still adjusting to women reporters on the sidelines and covering the team on a daily basis.
Forty-five percent of the NFL's fan base is female. The league is trying to attract even more women as fans. In fact, the NFL's vice president of consumer products retail development is female — Natara Holloway.
Certainly women can play a bigger role in the NFL. More and more women are working in media relations and marketing for NFL teams, including the Lions.
Amy Trask, who started with the Oakland Raiders as an intern in the legal department, is the only female CEO in the NFL. Continued...
In Miami, Dawn Aponte is the executive vice president of football administration for the Dolphins.
Kristen Kuliga and Kelli Masters are among 30 women who are certified by the NFLPA as agents.
Women are not shut out of the picture in many NFL offices, they just don't wear uniforms and cleats.
That's just not likely to change even if Lauren Silberman had nailed her tryout.

The instrument follows the Nuremberg tradition of trumpet making with its structural setup and decoration of cast brass putti of angels, embossed and engraved ferrules and garlands, glass stones, et cetera. Toward the end of the eighteenth century, Nuremberg lost its former significance, and trumpet making shifted to other places. Originally pitched in C, the tube was shortened to a higher pitch in the nineteenth century.

Oct. 3, 2003 Compiler's Notes: Senate Bill 393 (SB 393) was enrolled on August 13, 2003, and presented to the governor for her approval on September 8, 2003, at 5:00 p.m. On September 18, 2003, the senate requested that the bill be returned to the senate.

On September 23, 2003, the house of representatives approved a motion to send a letter to the senate agreeing with the senate's request that the governor return SB 393. Neither the Senate Journal nor the House Journal entries reveal any other action taken by the house of representatives regarding the return of SB 393.In order to determine whether SB 393 had become law, as requested, the attorney general examined whether SB 393 was recalled by concurrent action of the house of representatives and the senate within the 14-day period afforded the governor for vetoing a bill under the last sentence of Const 1963, art 4, § 33: "SB 393 was presented to the Governor on September 8, 2003, at 5:00 p.m. The 14-day period afforded for consideration, measured in hours and minutes, therefore expired on September 22, 2003 at 5:00 p.m. While the Senate had acted to recall the bill within that 14-day period (on September 18, 2003), the House did not. Its action concurring in the request to recall SB 393 was not taken until September 23, 2003. In the absence of concurrent action by both houses of the Legislature within the 14-day period, SB 393 was not effectively recalled and 'further legislative action thereon' was not authorized." The attorney general declared that "in the absence of a return of the bill with objections, SB 393 therefore became law by operation of the last sentence of art 4, § 33."

New to this board. I am living in Vietnam with my husband and our 2 month old son. We love to travel but may head back to the states in October. Thought I would come over and check out the board!
Hey there! Welcome to the board!
What took you to Vietnam?
I am American living in Spain with my DH. Welcome to the board.
I lived in Vietnam (HCMC) from 2001 till 2008 and had my son there. What brought you there?
Welcome! American living in Mexico with Mexican hubby!
I'm an American, married to a Brit, living in CA. We have a 2.5 year old and another baby due in August.
Living in Vietnam? Coooool.
I'm American living in Australia with my Norwegian SO.
Wow, thanks for the replies! People over here are a lot more welcoming than TB boards I was on!
We are in Da Nang and came here in August to teach. We came over with a contract that was broken by the company two weeks after arriving, so we have been teaching at different schools here for the last 7 months. It's not a stable job without a meaningful contract, which is a big factor in us heading back home when our lease is up. I had the baby here and got good care throughout my pregnancy,but the VN also raise babies very differently from western culture and I want medical care for DS that I am used to and without the communication barrier. We have enjoyed our time here, though, no doubt.
Welcome :) I am an American with an American DH, we will be living in Aberdeen, Scotland. (DH is already out there and DD and I will be moving there at the end of May)
I am very new to this board too. Its a good board with a lot of great ladies that give helpful advice!
Welcome! Vietnam, now that's different!
H is Spanish, I'm American and we are moving from Madrid to Frankfurt at the end of this month.

Last week I finished teaching and supervising the first medical student clinical elective in culinary medicine…and credit was given! Awesome!
Each day had assigned reading (peer-reviewed papers, book chapters from my ChefMD's Big Book of Culinary Medicine) and viewing (culinary medicine FAQ from viewers and readers, Tulane University basic nutritional science review from their new Center for Culinary Medicine, and more).
As a parting present, I gave a become-an-olive-oil-expert taster, to the right: tiny quantities of differently infused oils (garlic, basil, fig) in tiny quantities: it's also available online. Identifying flavors is something we'll do more of next time, especially with herbs and spices. We did identify fava bean maturity, and note the way nutritional content, flavor and texture change as the bean matures (mature fava beans can be planted too).
The week was divided into one basic topic area per day:
1. Hospital and Clinic (seeing patients, meeting other med students);
2. Home, Garden and Kitchen (harvesting, cooking techniques and dish creation, presentation, clean up, with food safety and recipe reading and development);
3. Organizations and Community (participation in Foodbank teaching, food advocacy initatives, and food literacy classes);
4. Research and Writing (curriculum critique, study of questions which arose during the week, work on assigned projects);
5. Menu Analysis and Eating Out (read-between-the-lines assessment, how to order and taste, deconstructing flavors and texture, portion size, control and rate of eating);
6. Shopping (farmer's market tour, farmer interviews, buying, seasonality, comparison with grocery store fare and products) and Conclusion (final turn in of projects and papers).
7. Rest.
We also integrated personal exercise into this, and that's something we'll do more of next time too: so important for students to know what they are asking patients to do. Although Santa Barbara is a paradise for walking, running, climbing and more, many of my own patients prefer to get their exercise inside, so they can count their numbers, which I fully support. Many of you know that I love the Smooth Fitness CE-3.6 Elliptical Trainer; the Sole E35 I previously recommended is sold out.
I don't have the final numbers yet, but the elective appears to have provided about 60 contact hours in two weeks with 17 faculty members from 6 different disciplines: Internal Medicine, Professional Cooking, Nutrition, Public Health, Community Leadership, Organizational Development. You can read about Week 1 here.
The photo to the right is one idea of how culinary medicine relates to 3 of its contributing disciplines.
Although I believe that it is logically a part of medicine and medical practice, it may be that the people to undertake its refinement and day to day application are actually chefs and cooking instructors, more than physicians or nutritionists or dietitians.
Chefs meet people where they eat, and as more and more of our budget goes towards eating out, it is clear that cooks and chefs outside the home will continue to have an outsized effect on how people eat and choose food.
This, of course, is despite my own, Michael Pollan's new excellent Cooked book, and Mark Hyman's exhortations that the key to health is learning to cook. I think it is still the key: but it takes time and skills that the culinary medicine elective teaches.
But who should be its students, leaders and champions? And what should it do? Stay tuned.

An investigation into sexual assaults and harassment at the basic-training facility for the U.S. Air Force has led to sweeping changes of how instructors are chosen, as well as to an increase in the number of female instructors for new recruits.
The announcement came on Wednesday as the Air Force briefed reporters at the Pentagon on the findings of an investigation into claims earlier this year that dozens of female recruits had been sexually assaulted.
The Air Force's final report into the Air Education and Training Command at Lackland Air Force Base in Texas said some of the instructors, "lacked the experience necessary to effectively serve as mentors and leaders and had little to no supervisory experience...this lack of experience is considered particularly relevant when a single (instructor) is generally responsible for a flight of 50 or more trainees."
Some 23 instructors have been identified as having been allegedly involved in the misconduct against 48 recruits at the school. The report says five people have been convicted in military courts on rape and adultery charges, with punishments ranging from 30 days in prison to 20 years behind bars.
The report comes as the Pentagon and CIA. finds itself embroiled in a sex scandal involving former CIA Director David Petraeus -- a retired Army general -- and an investigation into possible improper conduct by the NATO top commander, Gen. John Allen.
Among the 46 recommendations in the report, the Air Force will require that a fourth of the instructors be female -- there was no standard on a male-female ratio before -- and that four instructors will now oversee two units -- with at least one instructor being a woman. Prior to the report, the training command had only one instructor overseeing a 22-person unit of men and women.
Lackland Air Force base, near San Antonio, is where all U.S. Air Force recruits report for basic training. Air Force statistics show that there are about 500 instructors at the base that trains about 35,000 airmen each year. Only 20% of the recruits are female, and the vast majority of the instructors at the school are men, according to the fact sheet.
The lead investigator into the training command improprieties, Maj. Gen. Margaret Woodward, said the biggest problem was instructors who took advantage an oversight system where instructors and officers did not monitor one another to spot trouble signs that could catch the abuse.
"Basic military training is an environment that is highly vulnerable to the abuse of power because of the significant power imbalance that exists between instructors and trainees," the report said. "The conditions that led to the abuse of power in ... are ever-present; thus, our vigilance and engagement must be persistent as well," according to the report.
The commander in charge of Air Force training wrote a response to the investigation.
