Always always always remember you are a good and worthy person, and be proud of owning your truth. Be honest with everyone and good people will respect you. The ones who don't won't matter.

Do it at your pace. Everyone is different. Don't let anyone tell you what, when, or how. Understand that as hard as it was/is for you, it will be that way for many of the people you are telling. It took you time to come to terms, give those having a hard time a little space.

You will lead a beautiful and amazing life without your family if they cannot accept who you are.
You will be surrounded by incredible friends who know and accept you for exactly who you are.
You will meet someone who will complete you, and in that moment you will realise just how small and ridiculous and sad and insignificant the haters are.

My dad was truly a "man's man" rugged and refined. When I came out to my parents, it was my dad who said "your right to your happiness is as valid as mine, your mother's and your brothers'. If you are happy, I am happy." And then, he said "Just make sure you stay true to yourself, and enjoy life." I was 20, that was 32 years ago.
Be true to you, and enjoy your life! - April 3, 2012 at 11:52 AM

You're going to want to dive in headfirst to every guy that you see and fall madly in love with anyone you see. Remember that you're basically going though everything that straight couples went through in junior high and high school.
It gets easier as time goes on, so just let things come as they do. You'll wind up happier that way. - April 3, 2012 at 12:00 PM
Be true to yourself. I'm older and married and am living a lie. I hope you and your family can live and grow together. Be safe, always and remember God doesn't make mistakes only people do. Good luck!
- April 3, 2012 at 12:08 PM
First of all and most important is BE TRUE TO YOURSELF !! Be safe ,be open minded , and remember you have a right to choose :)
- April 3, 2012 at 12:09 PM
I agree with everything that has been said before. I would just say to that guy that you are equal to your partner, he has no right to judge you, to blame you, just giving his impressions and his feelings. He may approve/disapprove things but everything has to be spoken.
Another thing is that you don't belong to your partner, you both equally accepted to be involved in the same relationship. - April 3, 2012 at 12:26 PM
Consider this the start of your true life. Sometimes it takes a while, but hopefully your family will quickly come to terms with you coming out. But if they don't, remember this -- YOU HAVE A LARGE, LOVING, AND ACCEPTING FAMILY IN THE GAY COMMUNITY! Have fun and always practice safe sex.
- April 3, 2012 at 1:35 PM
Come out when the time feels right. You'll know. It's a process we all go through. Take your time and use it as an opportunity to get to know your real self. Feel those emotions you've been suppressing all these years. You'll end up a happier person and in the end you'll learn that its a lot easier and less scarry then imagined. Have fun and be safe ;)

My advice is to put it in a letter. A long heartfelt letter ensures that your parents (or whomever you're coming out to) will hear EVERYTHING you need to say without interruption and it's something that can be re-read if need be and it gives them time to sleep on it.
Obviously, you need to follow it up with an actual face to face, but this is the way I came out to my parents and it worked very well for me and them. - April 3, 2012 at 2:40 PM
Advice to a young person?
Yeah, right.
OK, here goes:
1) Make and keep good, true friends. Men and women. The kind you can call at three in the morning to come bail you out of jail...because they know you'd be there for them.
2) Don't believe the stuff anyone tells you about how being gay means you have to be a certain way. My best friend has sex on one weekend with more men than I've had in my life. I've been married for nearly 30 years to my husband and we are monogamous because that's just the way we are.
3) Don't write off your family if their first reaction isn't perfect. Everyone is entitled to a second chance.
4) Do it now, be it, don't just dream it - all my gay friends from the early 80s are dead. You may have 100 years before you. You may only have today. - April 3, 2012 at 2:59 PM

Simply put, do not sleep around, respect yourself. Take your time to meet great guys. Do not jump at the first chance.

- April 3, 2012 at 7:01 PM
I came out at 20-years-old myself, and have been in those shoes. I'm 23 now.
Advice I would give is to never feel inferior or intimidated by the gays who've been out longer than yourself. Many of the gay men I know made the decision to come out in high school, and have already experienced naivety, heartbreak, passion, and ample amounts of sex. You are just coming out and have yet to experience all of that as an openly gay man. Do not let judgement from other gays affect you because you're at this early stage in your "gay" timeline. They were there once too.
Do not be fooled into thinking that you're dating pool will flood automatically because you have come out. While others are wildly successful at attracting men, it may simply not be that way for you. Be who you are, and share yourself comfortably with others and THEN you will attract men, not just for sex, but to have a meaningful relationship with.
On a closing note...always, always make an effort to work out. You do not have to have the body of a ripped, Greed God to attract someone, but you will have greater self esteem and be comfortable with your body in the sometimes brutal world of the gays. - April 3, 2012 at 7:15 PM
1)strive EVERY morning to wake up being thankful for being YOU!
2) don't let the bastards and ugly people get you down
3) always love yourself...and forgive yourself when you screw up = you are human and you will. Then extend that same courtesy to others....will help reenforce #1 abovve! - April 3, 2012 at 7:38 PM
Coming out of the closet is a big step, one I'm so glad I took in 1980 and haven't looked back. Now is a much more accepting society than it was then. Keep your head up and don't let others tear you down: those who do aren't friends. At the same time, be selective about those with whom you share this very big part of your life. Sometimes it is wise to have support nearby.
Be proud. - April 3, 2012 at 7:39 PM

Just Read this on My Tumblr
It's helpful.
Before you come out to them, there are those feelings of self hate and Hell and sin and disgust floating around inside you. They eat you alive and tell you to hate yourself. You feel as if this thing that has happened to you will be the death of you, that it'll be worse than the death of you and nothing can change that.
Except for giving into the world, hoping to be straight, hoping to be this better version of a human being or humanity. Hoping that no one notices how you stare at the boy across the room or the desire you feel. Hoping that no one calls you "gay" or even thinks it. Hoping that by walking a different way or talking a different way that you'll become different. Hoping that God or some higher power that things will change for you.
Then by some miraculous moment, you accept it. You know there is nothing wrong with. You search for support and find it in friends or family members. You're finally in a place of goodness.
Then there comes the battle of your parents. The hate and ignorance they spew at you. The feelings of not being good enough and doubting yourself and feeling pain because all you want is love.
That is all you ever wanted in your entire life and to be denied it by the people that brought you here. It hurts.
Because real love, we don't think it hurts. Real love, there may be problems sometimes, but it doesn't hurt like this. It doesn't tear open the soul and bring tears to one's eyes. So you know it's not really there.
And you start to feel bad for yourself. You cry. You feel like shit. You feel beneath the Earth and everyone else and it makes you feel so alone.
But for me, I'm tired of going through those course of emotions. I'm tired with wanting acceptance. I'm tired with being afraid of putting "Interested In: Men" on Facebook. I'm tired of not wanting to show how happy I am with myself because I'm scared of being judged by my own mother.
So right now I saw fuck it.
The people who hate us, hate me, without even knowing my spirit, who are they to cause such pain? Who are they to tell me that I don't deserve to be happy and I give them the satisfaction of that?
The way that you fight it, you are who you are. Don't be ashamed of it. Find out how to fight your own battles and smile. Be proud of who you are and don't hide it.
I'm done with hiding it.
I'm done with letting other people make me feel pain over it because this is my life. Mines. No one else's.

My 2 cents
You don't need to come out to everyone, first try with your closes friends and family that you have an Idea they already know.
Break into it slowly and you'll see it's a huge weight off your shoulders and if they don't accept you. well give them time, they will come around. Some won't care but others will seem disappointed, but it's there way of dealing with it and soon they'll understand it's best for you. Nothing is more important to you than to be yourself and know one else.
I can go on and on, but I don't know how much space they allow on this blog. But, if you have any doubts ask and you shall receive. - April 3, 2012 at 8:22 PM
2 Things:
1) Coming out is always a process and this looks different in the various areas of your life (family, professional, friends, etc)
2) Never come-out to someone in order to hurt them (ie to hurt the feelings of a socially conservative parent, etc) - April 3, 2012 at 8:58 PM
I just want to say thank you all so much. I am 18 and just came out and it has been very challenging given my family is southern baptist and republican. I actually cried reading all these posts and hope I some day will be the man that all of you are. thank you. Jay R. -Nashville

Be grateful for this time in our society in the more liberal minded areas that labeling yourself gay is as common as saying you're a democrat. The definition of who you are is truly more than this one aspect; it may be the last part of your puzzling youth but by no means does it make you a man or woman. Your character, your morals, your weaknesses, your goals, your talents and faults are more important and meaningful than who you sleep with or fall in love with.
My ideal conversation would sound like this:
"Hi, I'm Kevin. I'm in college, have a job, great friends, I like to surf, play sports, am good to my family, I'm gay, love dogs and eating pizza." Response: "Wow, I love dogs, too!" - April 3, 2012 at 10:41 PM

Make friends in the gay community who are older than you. Having a group of peer friends is awesome, but when I came out at 22, I also ended up being friends with an older couple who sort of became my gay "parents". They were always nice to my (many) boyfriends. They taught me to have lots of fun, but keep things in perspective. They helped me pick colors for the new apartment. When I wrecked a car, they had one I could borrow for a couple of days. When I was heartbroken (often), I could cry on their shoulder. When I needed a lawyer (that's another story) they knew a good one. If I needed flatware or a piece of furniture, they always seemed to be getting rid of something that I might be able to use. One taught me how to cook, the other taught me how to make reservations. They weren't wealthy, but they loved me unconditionally and kept an eye out for me. They taught me how to be a good gay man. I'm still friends with them today, 30 years later.

Don't be an A**h*le when out on the scene. Treat others with the same respect you expect to be treated by them, regardless of their looks and age.
You may have perfect skin and a hot body now, but it all fades sooner than you think! - April 4, 2012 at 7:37 AM
Don't rush to sleep around or couple off. Develop your gifts and talents and find good friends as you do that. Design a life that says, "Here I am!" Do you every day,and have faith that Our Creator gave you many perfect gifts and faculties to make your way successfully in this life. Develop yourself till all the things you have to offer become obvious and irresistible. Good luck. Take the time to do you as a blessing.

My husband and I will celebrate our 17th anniversary on August 6th.
This is what I have learned about relationships –
Don't rush things.
Don't move in with each other until you have been together more than a year.
Get tested before you do anything.
Let him be wrong – think about it. Very powerful.
Be open with each other.
Respect his personality. If he is quiet, it is OK. If he is loud and outgoing, it is OK. If he is (fill in the blank), it is OK. Which leads me to:
Get to know each other. Become friends. Like each other. Love each other. Tolerate each other. Get mad together. Cry together.
Life is the ride. Get on and HOLD on… - April 4, 2012 at 5:30 PM

It's not about coming "out"--it's more about coming in: into your own life and your own truth. If you stumble, get back up. If you question, find the answers. If you believe, you will live. Believe in yourself.

"You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection."
That being said, You are a unique human being, but like the rest of us, we all share an infinite amount of time in this form. Follow your heart, your dreams and cherish your friends.
No one else could ever do or be you.
and sharing your individuality towards humankind, is your gift and legacy.

you are who you are. there are millions of people out there just like you, so if the people around you dont respect you for who you are, dont worry about them just be yourself and find people who will respect you. give people time to ajust, it can be a surprise to some parents who dont suspect it (all though from my experience they dont want to suspect it)
love yourself for who you are and people will love you back. dont be affraid to stand your ground its your life, live it your way, but do it safely, listen to your gut feelings and take it slow. - April 5, 2012 at 12:18 AM

Try not to confuse sex and love. They are separate entities and if you mix them up like I did- you may make decisions that you'll regret.
Try and remember when you're down and happen to be alone- to love yourself and take care of yourself for it's your greatest tool.
Steer clear of drugs and booze for awhile- if you're curious then wait until things are stable. Be safe. Wear condoms.
Get out there and socialize- lots to learn so better get started.
Walk away from drama queens and toxic gays...sadly they're LOTS of em out there.
Network online and make some online friends if you're in an isolated or rural place.
Makes a huge difference and hey ya never know- just might find a soulmate. ;o) - April 5, 2012 at 7:09 AM

here's the thing...dont make it bigger than you have too. i came out of the closet before i was freshman in highschool. i knew something was going on but i didnt know what. so i did a little own investigating of my own and after a week i knew i was gay. instead of hiding it i embraced. and came out to my parents to summer before highschool. my parents knew all along but they were accepting of and quote " we were waiting for you" right there i knew i had there full support. being who you are doesnt me you need to fulfil the stereo type of gay! i am 23 and i married and didnt find my husband by screwing everyguy i saw until lets say the dick fits...as my friend would say the gay version of cinderella. i am just saying come out when you are not ashamed (not saying you are) or ready to go in the direction you want your life to go in.

- April 6, 2012 at 7:22 AM
I came out three years ago and it has been a truly bittersweet ordeal for me. Some days are better than others but everyday is better because i am myself. It is not an easy process and it is not something that resolves itself in 24 hrs, take it one step at a time, one day at a time and be yourself. Remember that those who hate are not worth being around and those who accept you and support you are worth their weight in gold. Be safe and stay focused on your dreams and goals - take care of yourself.
- April 6, 2012 at 10:48 AM
make sure you have some very close friends that you trust and cherish. I'm about to turn 65 and looking back on my own experience what I can say is: don't be promiscuous just because you can be. always play SAFE. avoid excessive drug and alcohol use. don't pursue men you can't have a real relationship with i.e. closet cases and so-called "bi" guys. trust me, it doesn't work. above all else love and respect yourself and nurture your soul. respect older gays and those less fortunate ones. if you need psychiatric help, get it. it's your life, be responsible for it.

Have a fall-back plan in place before you speak to your family. 1) if they grow you out, where will you sleep that night 2) if they own your car, how will you get around ifvthe keys are confiscated? 3) if they control your finances, what will you do if they close the bank? 4) do you need them for college tuition or loans? What will you do if they stop paying tuition, cosigner loans or even complete the FASB forms? 5) the list goes on and on but bottom line, think of everything they provide and make a plan to replace it it ----- wait a bit before you come out.
- April 9, 2012 at 12:33 AM
Everyone here has wonderful warm advise. Mine? Chart your own course, learn to think, have fun, be safe, use tons of sun screen every day, & exercise every day. The first 30 years are on the house after that you have to work at it. As RUSH, the band, says "we are only immortal for a limited time."

Putting aside ANYTHING you may hear about the gay community, there is one piece of advice you should take into account more than others:
It's a lot more likely than not that your parents will be accepting of your sexuality as they will only want what makes you happy, regardless of what they think of people outside of your family. And if they're not, treat them as they treat you til they either get the message or until they die. - April 27, 2012 at 10:52 AM

We live in a world of possibilities. Opportunities await.
You're going to feel like the proverbial Kid in a Candy Store. But take a moment. Learn how to protect yourself from STDs like HIV and AIDS. The most important thing for you to remember is that you have value.
There are people who will tell you what you want to hear, just to get what they want from you. Be sure it's what YOU want.
There's nothing wrong with enjoying life. Just do it on YOUR terms. - December 29, 2012 at 1:02 AM
Since my advice generally sucks, I have given up giving it. You will have to make your own decisions and may they be better than mine.
- December 29, 2012 at 1:05 AM
Own it, rock it, show no fear. Say it like it always has been, cuz technically what about you really changes after you say "I'm gay". it's not like flipping a switch. You will still be the same person. I was 20 when i first came out and when i was coming out to my friends i was very nonchalant about it. My friend asked "where have you been? Haven't seen you in a while" and i immediately replied "oh yea, I'm seeing a guy. He's pretty cool.... He's good to me, and we spend a lot of time together". just talk about it like any other fact of life, not done extreme revelation. I feel like once you make it a big deal and when you yourself make it seem different is when others will definitely follow that precedent of treating you differently. Be confident in yourself. You can also threaten... If i was at a party, during the first few months after i came out, I'd eventually yell out "i suck Dick for fun and i can still fuck your girl better and beat your ass.
- December 29, 2012 at 8:04 AM
Coming out is for YOU. No other person completes YOU. YOU complete yourself. Guys are NOT going anywhere. Figure out you, your passions, your interests, who YOU are. If you truly know yourself, trust yourself and envision yourself as the main goal of YOUR life you can wade through life confident, assured, ready to zig and zag and not make MANY of the errors gay men rush into.
We spend so much time closeted that we become masters of hiding, lying, desiring and pretending. Those are the first things you have to realize you no longer have to do. Adjust that within yourself. You OWE nobody anything but truth and respect. Sometimes it is hard to give either, but always give both. You can't expect to receive them if you don't give them. Don't jump right into sex or relationships. It is the biggest mistake we all make. We spend so much time in Jr High and High school watching everyone else do it that once we come out we do everyone in sight. Its a gay trap and down the road you will regret it. Don't do it. Love yourself before you give yourself. - December 29, 2012 at 8:30 AM

Do three strikes and you are out,! mistake a worry ,2 mistakes concerning,3 you may want to still go with it but you can not bore your friends with his lateness /temper,it's a co dependent choice,not wrong just a choice.
Be kind, everyone is scared and only EVER HAVE SEX WITH A CONDOM ,it is not so scary now,,I am 50 and lost the love of my life 20 years ago ,before there were options.
People think you just take the pills,it is much more.

Once you've accepted yourself for who you are, the rest of your life belongs to nobody but you. Don't try to fit any mold of who others think you should be. Be yourself and do what is right for you. Life isn't always 100 percent perfect... but if you are happy with yourself, you will surround yourself with people you need. Give yourself permission to be human and make human mistakes. Forgive yourself and move forward.
- April 8, 2013 at 4:35 PM

Absolutely do not get into the social apps like Grindr, Growlr, Scruff, etc. Those apps will not lead to anything but to hollow relationships and feelings of low self worth. No one you will meet on those apps is completely honest, and you will never really know someone through that medium.

There's absolutely nothing wrong or bad or weird or sick about your sexuality. Your sexuality is an incredible part of your body, mind and spirit. If you live with integrity and ethics, and love and respect for yourself, you'll have a much, much easier life. You'll be able to stand up for yourself when you have to and laugh at people who try to tell you they think there's something wrong with you (in their eyes). Well, laugh at or pity.

There are a lot of wise words above, listen to them and believe them because you have at least 64 people above who have gone through what you are going through.
A few things of note:
1. As you begin to accept yourself and start living openly, you will go through what most straight teenagers go through as they first start dating the opposite sex in junior high. Its an important part of learning about your mate(s) and yourself. Allow yourself some stupid mistakes with your heart, and recognize that no one has dating perfect; you will find out more about yourself over time, and what you are truly looking for.
2. Always be safe, even when the situation is hurried and even if the environment is not traditionally ideal for safety. Glory holes still exist because people still use them - I am not a lecturer, so not going to tell you to avoid all temptation for casual sexual situations, but I am going to warn you that no one else is looking out for your health but you, and that anonymous stranger on the other side of the wall may not give a damn what happens to you after you part ways. Make smart decisions for yourself.
3. Everyone who says that the people who won't accept you arent worthy of you are RIGHT. Its drama you dont need in your life. How dare they "choose" that their way of life is right and that to be their friend/family, you must conform to their antiquated thinking. You want people in your life that will champion your successes in all aspects, including the heart. You will find those people because there are a helluva lot more of them, then there are haters nowadays. And even if you find a handful in your life, you will have that handful of real, true friendships.
4. It is true: friends are the family you choose. If you have family that will not accept you, then that is their deficiency, not yours. Find yourself a family of friends that you can be yourself with, and you will recognize that blood only goes so far. If that blood tie meant anything to them, they will be the ones to adapt, not you.

Know your own limitations, or, how far you are willing to push your limits.
Don't let anyone push you beyond where you are comfortable going, in any situation. - April 9, 2013 at 10:21 PM
Gay life will be hard!
It will get harder every day...be prepared!
People are mostly about money and superficial values...especially gay guys can use and abuse you.
The only thing that matters is you.
Make sure you are healthy.
Have only sex with people that you love!
Let them separate sex and love...
But only love matters!
Don't trust people easily.
Make sure you and only you feel good about whatever happens in your life first!
You will have to be very strong since your family, friends and people you love are not responsible for your life!
You matter.
You make the difference.
Be your own best friend. - May 17, 2013 at 5:19 PM

Foodborne Illness & Disease
/ Yersiniosis and Chitterlings
Yersiniosis and Chitterlings: Tips to Protect You and Those You Care for from Foodborne Illness
Chitterlings are a popular food served in many parts of the United States, the Caribbean, Latin America, western Asia, and Europe. Also called "chitlins," they are the large intestines usually of swine (hogs) but can also be from young bovine animals such as calf, or veal. Some people consider them a delicacy; while for others who grew up eating them, they are a comfort food. Eaten all year long, chitterlings are especially popular during the Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's holidays.
The name "chitterlings" comes from Middle Old English or Middle High German. Caribbean and Latin America people use them in traditional dishes such as "Mondongo," and the French call them
les tricandilles
. They are also used as casings for sausages.
Chitterlings (more commonly called "chitlins") became a traditional winter food of the American Deep South during Colonial times when, before refrigeration, hogs were slaughtered in December. Those not living "high on the hog" were given the less desirable parts of the animal. Chitterlings have a pungent odor while being boiled. Their texture is similar to
(squid). After lengthy boiling, chitlins sometimes are battered and fried and commonly are served with cider vinegar and hot sauce as condiments.
Whatever way you cook them, chitlins must be handled and prepared with caution lest they cause foodborne illness. Preparation is a labor-intensive process that lends itself to the cross-contamination of kitchen countertops, cutting boards, and utensils. Chitterlings can be contaminated with the bacteria
Yersinia enterocolitica
, which can cause a diarrheal illness called "yersiniosis." Other foodborne pathogens — such as
E. coli
— can also be present, so it is important to follow safe food handling practices to prevent infection.
Q. What is Yersinia enterocolitica?
Yersinia enterocolitica
is a bacterium found in the intestine of hogs that can cause diarrheal illness in humans. Infections caused by these bacteria are called yersiniosis. Swine and meat products from swine are the primary source of illness from
in humans.
Q. What are the symptoms of yersiniosis?
Symptoms can include watery diarrhea, abdominal pain, headache, fever and vomiting. Young children, older adults, pregnant women, and people with a weakened immune system are more at risk and may experience a more severe illness. Abdominal pain may be confused with appendicitis. Illness in immune-compromised individuals can lead to arthritis, meningitis, and inflammation of the skin (
erythema nodosum
Q. How do people get yersiniosis from chitterlings?
People can get yersiniosis from consuming raw or undercooked pork, or from the cross-contamination of food contact surfaces, such as countertops, cutting boards, utensils. Infants can get yersiniosis if their family members or caretakers handle raw meat or hog intestines and do not adequately wash their hands before handling the infant or the infant's toys, bottles, or pacifiers. Cross-contamination can occur if family members or caretakers preparing chitterlings are also caring for infants and small children at the same time. It is very important that safe food handling practices are followed during the preparation of chitterlings in order to protect you and those you care for from illness.
Q. How can consumers prevent getting yersiniosis from chitterlings?
Tips for safely preparing these products:
Thaw chitterlings in the refrigerator. Wrap the container with raw chitterlings in plastic wrap before placing it in the refrigerator.
Buy pre-cooked chitterlings. But if you prefer using raw ones, pre-boil them for 5 minutes before cleaning and cooking. Studies conducted by the Georgia Department of Human Resources Division of Public Health found that including this step in the preparation of chitterlings kills pathogenic bacteria without changing the flavor.
Thoroughly wash hands with soap and warm water for a full 20 seconds before and after the preparation of chitterlings.
Wash utensils, cutting boards, dishes, and countertops with hot soapy water after preparing each food item and before you go on to the next item. Countertops, equipment, utensils, and cutting boards can be sanitized with a freshly prepared solution of 1 tablespoon of unscented, liquid chlorine bleach in 1 gallon of water. Flood the surface with the bleach solution and allow it to stand for several minutes. Rinse with clear water and air dry or pat dry with clean paper towels.
During preparation of chitterlings, caregivers should find others to assist with care of infants and small children to prevent cross-contamination and infections.
Keep children out of the kitchen when chitterlings are being prepared.
Boil and simmer chitterlings until well cooked and tender.
Q. What should I do if I think I have, or someone in my family has, yersiniosis?
Call your doctor, nurse, or health clinic if you suspect you may have a foodborne illness.
To protect yourself and those you care for from foodborne illness, always follow these guidelines for safe food preparation:
CLEAN: Wash Hands and Surfaces Often
Bacteria can spread throughout the kitchen and get onto cutting boards, utensils, and countertops.
Wash your hands for 20 seconds with warm soapy water before handling food and after using the bathroom, changing diapers, and handling pets.
Wash utensils, cutting boards, dishes, and countertops with hot soapy water after preparing each food item and before you go on to the next item.
Consider using paper towels to clean kitchen surfaces. If you use cloth towels, wash them often in the hot cycle of your washing machine.
SEPARATE: Don't Cross-contaminate
Separate raw meat, poultry, and seafood from other foods in your grocery shopping cart and in your refrigerator.
If possible, use different cutting boards for raw meat and poultry products and vegetables.
Wash cutting boards, dishes, countertops, and utensils with hot soapy water after they come in contact with raw meat, poultry, and seafood or their juices.
Never place cooked food on a plate which previously held raw meat, poultry, or seafood.
COOK: Cook to Safe Temperatures
Use a clean food thermometer when measuring the internal temperature of meat, poultry, casseroles, and other foods to make sure they have reached a safe minimum internal temperature.
Cook food to a safe minimum internal temperature. Use a food thermometer to check the internal temperature.
When cooking food in a conventional oven, set the oven temperature to at least 325 °F.
Boil chitterlings in water for 5 minutes BEFORE cleaning; then proceed with preferable cooking method until chitterlings are completely cooked and tender.
CHILL: Refrigerate Promptly
Refrigerate foods quickly because cold temperatures keep harmful bacteria from multiplying.
Refrigerate or freeze perishables, prepared foods, and leftovers within 2 hours (1 hour if the temperature is above 90 °F).
Set your refrigerator at 40 °F or below and the freezer at 0 °F or below. Check these temperatures occasionally with an appliance thermometer.
Don't over pack the refrigerator. Cold air must circulate to keep food safe.
Thaw chitterlings in the refrigerator and never thaw at room temperature. Divide large amounts of leftovers into shallow containers for quick cooling in the refrigerator.
Refrigerate and use raw chitterlings within 2 days after thawing. Use frozen chitterlings within 3 to 4 months for best quality. Cooked chitterlings can stay for 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator; 3 to 4 months in the freezer.

BOSTON >> Stephen Drew is moving to Boston to restart what once looked like a promising career.
The former first-round draft pick of the Arizona Diamondbacks was derailed by a serious ankle injury in 2011. He was traded last season to Oakland after returning from the injury and agreed to $9.5-million, one-year contract to pay with the Red Sox in 2013.
His older brother, J.D., played five seasons with the Red Sox and earned a World Series title with Boston in 2007.
That year, as a member of the Arizona Diamondbacks, Stephen Drew was playing his first full season in the majors and just missed facing his brother in the World Series when the Colorado Rockies swept his team for the National League title before losing to the Red Sox.
"Playing in a big series— Boston and the Yankees — will be different," Drew said in a conference call with the media on Thursday. "He's talked to me about things like that. It's a little bigger market than Arizona. The `07 the World Series, we were pretty close to playing Boston and that would have been pretty neat. It worked out the best for him and for the Red Sox."
But the shortstop knows people will immediately make comparisons to him and his brother.
"You guys know J.D. — he's laid back and I'm laid back, but probably a little more emotional," he said. "At the end of the day, I'm a different person than J.D. and J.D's a different person than me. J.D. played right field and I play shortstop. I've always had a little more pressure playing in the middle of the field. I don't really throw my bat, but you guys know that. At the end of the day, J.D. and I are a little different."
Coming back after a fractured right ankle on a collision at home plate that had him sideline from mid-July until late June of last season, Drew hit .193 in 39 games with two homers and 12 RBIs with the Diamondbacks until he was dealt to Oakland, where he played the final 40 games batting .250 with five homers and 16 RBIs.
"Going through it gets kind of crazy," he said. "I put a lot of hard work and dedication into the rehab process not knowing if I was going to ever play baseball again or not."
Before the injury, Drew played 135 games or more in four straight years with Arizona. His best was when he hit .291 with 21 homers and 67 RBIs in 2008. Continued...
Drew's reputation took somewhat of a hit when Diamondbacks' owner Ken Kendrick questioned the amount of time the shortstop took to get back from the injury. He also understands that he's coming to a market where his brother was similarly criticized for taking a while to recover from his injuries.
"I understand Boston. The team's been around a long time and the fans are kind of passionate. They have a right to be," he said. "As players you go through hard times. You go out and play and just leave it out there on the field — that's all you can do. At the end of the day, you go home and think about things and try to fix it. You adapt — just like you do after every tough at-bat."
Drew is likely to become Boston's 11th starting shortstop in a revolving-door position. Mike Aviles started 123 games there last season then was sent to Toronto as compensation for the Red Sox prying their new manager, John Farrell, away from the Blue Jays. Aviles later was traded to the Cleveland Indians.
Slick-fielding Jose Iglesias, 22, had been considered Boston's shortstop of the future, but he struggled at the plate, batting .118 in 24 games last year. He may also have been moved down in the organizational depth chart by Xander Bogaerts, 20, who has played just 23 games at Double-A.
Boston started the shortstop maneuverings in 2004 when it traded Nomar Garciaparra in the middle of the season.

Nothing can compare to being there. The moments are frozen in time for me. But this CBC broadcast of the last 2 minutes and post victory celebration is the closest thing I have found. You don't appreciate how great CBC covered this series and the playoffs until you watch that abortion by NBC. In any event, spend the next 45 minutes with me. Let's enjoy it again together.
Come on Die-Hards – Let's Watch It Together, Again
I watched this earlier today. Respect to CBC for understanding such a simple concept to just shut the fuck up and let the crowd noise tell the story for the last minute and 40 seconds. NBC pricks are just too conceited to figure that out and feel the need to fill that space with their drivel. It's one thing for Nick Nickson and Bob Miller to be allowed to wax poetic at the end but clearly NBC doesn't understand when they should just step aside.
What you said.
By "step aside" you must mean NBC cutting away to the local news after just five minutes and only five players hoisting the cup?
Plus setting a stage which prevented players from skating a circuit of the rink with the cup. Bullshit x10
I watched the basketball awards that provided more then double more then double the coverage…and a fraction of the tradition and a parade of conceited, overpaid egos.
How does the NHL figure to get ahead when they turn their back on the past?
No, I don't get it.
goddamn… that was a lot more powerful w/o all the incessant nbc yammering.
AWESOME! I can watch this 100+ more times (and probably will).
There's still chills and goosebumps…and as pointed out, that was all the more evident by letting the roar of the crowd and the builidng anticipation of the Kings players become the canvas, that was awesome. And all i could think of , hearing that roar was Darryl Sutter saying his favorite memory was watching his players faces for the last 3 minutes, knowing they were champions about to be crowned. It all came together. And hearing the players hoop in up like schoolkids in the dog pile at the buzzer.
I don't think (from what the players who've won before) have said that there is nothing that compares to the first time you win. Good for the Kings! They earned and to do it front of that loyal fanbase, esp the ones that have supported this team for 40 years…Wow.
This is will never get old, and look forward to watching replays of every series on NHL network all summer is something I look forward to.
Go Kings…lets do this again next June…beat the Pens in 6 -
You know the other thing I keep thinking of watching this is the fact that we (fans outside that locker room ) will ever realize the full effect Sutter had on this team. I mean, watching every game, the way they played all out, line after line, forechecking like rabid dogs after live game, that tenacity, is largely due to him. What a job…I don't think they'd have won this without his touch. He was smart enough, savvy enough to understand how damanged this team was when he took over and gently made his changes, subtlely instilled their confidence back (esp Doughty -HUGE change in him thanks to DS) and by March putting down a more iron fist. I hope they continue to thrive under him and look forward to a full year with him and with the top 6 we have- imagine if Kopi and Carter each hit 40 goals???
I get choked up everytime.
We're the Stanley fuckin' Cup Champs!

Headhunting basically means to cut off someones head after killing them, thats the true meaning, and i have no idea what the fuck all the others are about, and Headhunterz are absolutely sick. headhunters are fucking wrong
7. | headhunter | ||
Lots of definitions, but when a baseball pitcher is referred to as a headhunter it means that he intentionally throws pitches at the heads of batters on a regular basis. This is done either to intimidate them or to actually crack their skull.
Pitchers who do this are under the delusion that they have the right to mete out punishment to batters for such minor offenses as acting a little too cocky, or swinging at a 3-2 pitch when the batter's team is leading by 10 runs. Sometimes they do it just because they are frustrated that the batter gets a lot of hits off them. They do not deserve to be in the major leagues. They do deserve to have their asses kicked by 'roided up hitters who charge the mound after being thrown at. "Shit, Roger Clemens hit Mike Piazza in the head with that pitch! And the last three times Piazza faced Clemens, he homered off him! I bet Clemens did it on purpose; that prick's a headhunter!"

lllinois watchdog agency warns of layoffs if doctor licensing fees remain low
Investigators who look into complaints against Illinois doctors are being warned layoffs will start in January unless the Legislature raises doctor licensing fees.
A spokeswoman for the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation says staff members are being informed about the layoffs Thursday afternoon. Eighteen positions are targeted for elimination, including more than half the investigators.
Spokeswoman Susan Hofer says doubling the load would slow down investigations and prosecutions of doctor misconduct.
Salaries in the watchdog unit are funded entirely from the license fees doctors pay. No tax dollars are involved. Doctors now pay what amounts to $100 a year to be licensed. Fees haven't increased since 1987.
The state licensing agency has been seeking an increase in physician licensing fees for five years without result.

I guess, this girl has been in an exile or was she waiting to make a grand comeback in the Cannes? Whatever the case is, Lindsay Lohan didn't look that bad at the 150th Chopard party during the festival. If we ignore the bruises and ugly marks on her thighs, then her dress was actually chic. It was a plain white colored mini-outfit with silver leaf embellishments on the shoulders. Well, the attire would have looked more classy if only, Lohan could have taken out time to sew the hem. I particularly liked the clutched drape at the waist, which was giving the dress a sexy look.
Lindsay combined her attire with a pair of sexy silver strappy sandals. This look of her's is surely worth a little appreciation. But, LiLo we really want you to take care of your skin, it has started looking uglier by the day. For more pictures, have a look at the gallery below.

I am currently in the process of a remodel and plan to use the stool this time but encountered difficulty finding a match.

Novell ZENworks 7 Linux Management - ZLM7
Novell ZENworks 7.2 Linux Management - ZLM7.2
Novell Open Enterprise Server (Linux based)
The best (and only supported) way to update an Open Enterprise Linux Server is by OES patch bundles and not via the oes-bundle. Note: The OES catalog from update.novell.com should be mirrored.
You can update the patches on the OES managed devices in two ways:
Pushing the Updates from the ZENworks Linux Management Server to the OES Managed Device
- Log into ZENworks Control Center.
- Click Bundles.
- Create a Bundle Group.
- Associate all the patch bundles in the OES catalog except the oes-bundle to the Bundle Group.
- Assign the Bundle Group to the OES managed device to be installed on a specific schedule.
Manually Installing Updates from the OES Client
- Log into the ZENworks Control Center.
- Click Bundles.
- Go to the oes-catalog.
- Remove the oes-bundle association from the OES catalog.
- Remove patch-11032 from the OES catalog.
- Associate the OES catalog to the OES managed device.
- On the managed device, execute the 'rug refresh' command.
- To install all the patches, execute the 'rug bin patch-*' command.
For detailed information on how to perform each step, see the ZENworks 7.2 Linux Management documentation.
Disclaimer: As with everything else at Cool Solutions, this content is definitely not supported by Novell (so don't even think of calling Support if you try something and it blows up).

New map
Added more sounds
Menu is done
Optimized the game code
Realistic blood [same as in counter-strike]
Add new radar system
Better weapon shooting
Spawn points
Posted 07 July 2011 - 11:07 AM
I really like the guns, did you make them your selves or did you rip em?
One suggestion though, you should make an online lobby that tells you all of the available servers. That could be easily done with a php dll and a free website host.
Posted 07 July 2011 - 11:50 AM
Also when aiming down sight it still doesn't aim very well (it can hit at a random spot around the aim, instead close to it).
Last point would be that there's not reloading at all, it just shifts to the next round and I can just hold my button and get through all magazines without reloading .
Good luck with ur game =)
Posted 07 July 2011 - 12:09 PM
@glance, it is already done. The serverlist is really good/fast.
And some other things we added in the last 4/5 months:
Accounts + experience
New player models (not finished yet)
Posted 07 July 2011 - 03:17 PM
Posted 07 July 2011 - 04:29 PM
can't wait to see what the next version will be like
Posted 07 July 2011 - 04:54 PM
@glance, we never give a release date because we want to create a bug less version.
btw: some things we added;
Jump can heart alot now
Improvement on the playermodel, it walks smoother.

AphasiaAphasia facts**Aphasia facts medical author: Charles Patrick Davis, MD, PhD
What is aphasia?Aphasia is a disorder that results from damage to portions of the brain that are responsible for language. For most people, these are areas on the left side (hemisphere) of the brain. Aphasia usually occurs suddenly, often as the result of a stroke or head injury, but it may also develop slowly, as in the case of a brain tumor, an infection, or dementia. The disorder impairs the expression and understanding of language as well as reading and writing. Aphasia may co-occur with speech disorders such as dysarthria or apraxia of speech, which also result from brain damage. Patient CommentsViewers share their comments
