Travis County started a court designed for veterans who are arrested for misdemeanor crimes.
But soon, the county will allow the veterans court to also look at some non violent, low level felonies.
64-year-old Teo Tuedas likes the idea.
He's a veteran of the Vietnam Conflict.
He says he returned and had constant nightmares.
It turns out, he had post traumatic stress disorder.
"You see the people that died, how you lived, how you lived when you came back.
Ruedas was a marine in Vietnam in the late 60's.
His flash backs were painful.
But he didn't get help for his PTSD until some 30 years later.
"A veteran really doesn't admit he needs help."
"There was a breaking point."
He turned to alcohol to cope.
It is still emotional for ruedas.
"That was it, I drank everyday. I worked everyday too. When work was over, I drank."
Ruedas says he was arrested for drinking and driving several times during the 1990s. But if a veterans court existed back then, he may have gotten the help he really needed, instead of landing in jail so many times."
Ruedas is one reason Precinct Four Constable, Maria Canchola, was instrumental in starting a veterans court in Travis County.
Canchola noticed many veterans making their way through the criminal justice system.
Most have substance abuse issues, post traumatic stress disorder, or brain injuries.
She says they needed help, not jail time.
"When they come home from war, they feel dead. They've numbed themselves out."
"One of the doctors mentioned to me what makes you think your veteran wants to go shopping with you when the night before, he was at war?"
Canchola knows firsthand how hard it can be for veterans dealing with ptsd.
She is married to Teo Ruedas.
"Can you stay with an alcoholic? Can you stay with someone who is living life dangerously? Recklessly? And they're not doing it because they're bad people."
Veterans have to qualify for their case to be heard in the specialty court.
Travis County Attorney, David Escamilla, says they have to be first-time offenders.
"When you combine first time offenders, a sense of wanting to be accountable for their actions and then having the va work with them and have a regiment of counseling."
So far, 10 veterans are in the program that started in November.
Soon, the court will hear certain non violent, low level felonies as well.
Judge Mike Denton oversees the court.
"There's undoubtedly there are young veterans that are coming back now and old veterans from previous conflicts that self medicate based on the ptsd they're afflicted with."
Twice a month, Judge Denton sees veterans charged mainly with Class A and B misdemeanors.
Most are drug related.
"They have those conditions because we sent them into combat so I think we owe those individuals."
Ruedas no longer needs counseling.
But his sacrifice didn't stop when he came home.
It continues as he is now battling cancer as a direct result of Agent Orange.
It's understandable that Ruedas has refused interviews until now.
It turns out, he had an agenda.
His time in Vietnam was painful and as a result, Ruedas says he hated the Vietnamese people and all asians.
He agreed to talk to me for a reason.
"I've always had real ill feelings toward the asian people because of what happened over there and I think it's about time I apologized for feeling that way."
It was an apology only Ruedas needed to hear.
The veterans court's goal is to intervene early and get those who served our country the help they need.
Getting veterans back to their lives that they deserve.
Looking to help young women and men who returned from service
According to Texas Military Forces, 847 veterans will return to Austin from deployment this year 2011.
That's on top on an estimated 60,000 veterans already in Travis County.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (WKZO) -- People who claim to be victims of GM's faulty vehicles are speaking out, with one woman calling her car a "death trap."
Samantha Denti of New Jersey said she was nearly killed in her Chevy Cobalt three times due to a faulty ignition switch. The third incident occurred after her car was checked by a GM dealer mechanic. She described driving it as playing "Russian roulette."
Other members of victims' families accused GM of negligence. Connecticut Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal said GM should create a hefty compensation fund for victims' families. Faulty ignition switches are blamed for more than a dozen deaths in the U.S. and Canada.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"First of all, I am not at all a fan of the standard color scheme. But I loved the retro graphic, so I clicked on it anyway, and the navy blue version is PERFECT! I'm so glad there was a template to follow for what info goes on the card, because this was my first time organizing a bachelorette party. We are doing an all day affair, so I used the back of the card to show the itinerary in a navy blue font. I feel like I got a great value for 15 cards, and to cut corners (pun intended) on price even more I didn't get a corner option and rounded the edges myself with scissors. I wasn't expecting much with the plain white envelopes, but even those were high quality! Very thick and sturdy, took my ink calligraphy pen very well with no bleeding. I will definitely be using WPD for my future wedding stationery! :)"
"- The person who reviewed my order and made the changes that I asked did a great job and did it fast! - I would recommend an option for different size envelopes, as I had to go buy bigger ones because the card would not fit with a bow tied around it."
"I ordered these because of the design and that they are postcards. I was able to write personal messages to each of the girls we are inviting and it's great not to deal with envelopes. Wedding paper divas shipped the cards quickly and I can't wait to drop them in the mail!"
"So many bachelorette invitations are so tacky with lingerie and zebra print but these were cute, perfect and turned out great! The paper was very high quality. I also paid the extra $$ to have my return address printed on the envelope and I'm glad that I did, made it easier to send out. Only negative was that due to the design, there is very limited space for information about the party- I had to make my own separate insert to go in so that the guests would have all the info. Overall, great!!"
"I liked the preview so much, I didn't change a thing when ordering cards for my best friend's Bachelorette. Everyone thought it was a fun card with out going over the top. Loved it so much we are using WPD for our save-the-date for our wedding!"

WASHINGTON (AP) - The head of veteran health services says a preliminary review found no evidence to support recent allegations of corruption and unnecessary deaths at the agency's Phoenix hospital.
The Phoenix Veterans Health Care Center has been under fire in recent weeks over allegations that up to 40 patients may have died because of delays in care and that, to hide delays in treatment, the hospital kept a secret list of patients waiting for appointments.
The Department of Veterans Affairs inspector general is investigating. But VA Under Secretary for Health Robert A. Petzel told a Senate committee Monday that a team sent to do a preliminary review has found no evidence that anyone died while on a waiting list and no evidence that officials in Phoenix kept a secret list.

I think I'm going to have to step up my knitting skill set beyond the basic knit one purl two, because Farmer Fox is making me crazy covetous. Parents with a knack for knitting would be well-served to grab one of these patterns, which I found first at Craft:, and are available from Ariadne Knits and the fabulous brain of Montreal designer Jennie Eveleigh Lamond for $4.50 as a PDF download. So. Cute.
The Muswell Cat pattern, also from Jennie Eveleigh Lamond, is also available for PDF download for the same price.
Any knitters out there want to make one?

I like the fox, although I had a tendency to make up my own patterns as I go, so I'll probably free hand it instead of getting the pattern (I don't sell any of the stuff I make, and I don't sell the patterns either, so I'm not making money off a ripped off design).

Provo • Now that Alex Kuresa is working out with the receivers, five quarterbacks — Riley Nelson, James Lark, Jason Munns, Taysom Hill and Ammon Olsen — gather around offensive coordinator Brandon Doman for instruction at BYU preseason camp practices.
Well, make that six — some of the time.
BYU camp
What we learned » Quarterback Riley Nelson is having an accurate camp. He followed Saturday's 7-for-10 performance with an 8-for-8 outing on Monday.
Who looked good » With several young players missing practice to prepare for finals week, running back Adam Hine got some extensive work and made his reps count.
Who was missing » Receiver Dallin Cutler was held out with a hamstring strain, while receiver Cody Hoffman and safety Joe Sampson missed practice for the third-straight day for disciplinary reasons.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Highly touted recruit Tanner Mangum, the quarterback who signed with BYU last February out of Eagle, Idaho, hangs out with the quarterbacks some days although he is not officially a member of the team. Mangum doesn't leave on his two-year LDS Church mission until December or January, so he is "grayshirting" until then.
That means he is not allowed to practice with the team. He is paying his own way in school, but his five-year eligibility clock hasn't started yet.
The soonest Mangum will play for BYU is 2015.
"It is something that we have discussed several times," Doman said. "Ultimately, it is Tanner's decision. And so the decision was made to come here, do some stuff in preparation for his mission. And then see some football, but not start the clock. We already had six quarterbacks in the program on scholarship."
Nelson stays sharp
Starting quarterback Riley Nelson's extensive work on his accuracy is paying off through four days of camp. The Cougars are still wearing only helmets and shorts, although NCAA rules allow for shoulder pads on the third day, but Nelson is carving up the defense. He was 8-for-8 passing in team drills on Monday, after going 7-for-10 on Saturday.
Kicking concerns
It is apparent that BYU coaches don't know if they will be able to count on junior kicker Justin Sorensen this season after the Bingham High graduate underwent back surgery last winter. They tried some field goals and a PAT for the first time Monday, but senior Riley Stephenson and backup QB Hill did the kicking.
Stephenson was 2-for-3 on his FG attempts, making 37- and 42-yarders and missing a 39-yarder, while Hill — who kicked at Highland High in Pocatello, Idaho — made a 25-yard field goal and an extra point.
BYU coach Bronco Mendenhall said he planned to meet with Sorensen later Monday to discuss the kicker's status. It is possible that Sorensen will be asked to redshirt.
Receiver Cody Hoffman and safety Joe Sampson were held out of practice for the third straight day, due to discipline issues. ... Returned missionary Craig Bills saw time with the first team defense Monday in Sampson's absence and Mendenhall said he is "pleasantly encouraged" by Bills' readiness.

The typical business model for banking in the developed and developing world has been to encourage the unbanked (those at the bottom of the pyramid) to the bank. Since the deep penetration of mobile phones across the global north and south, mobile devices are now bringing the bank to the unbanked. Now with the click of a button you can transfer money (internationally and domestically), check account balances and financially plan smarter.
The Health Service Delivery Model
The business-as-usual health service delivery model has been to get the "unhealthed" to come to the clinic/hospital/health post for care and treatment. Given the increased burdens of disease and the challenges many countries face in achieving the MDGs for health, HOW do we learn from the mBanking model to bring health care to the unhealthed?
From a recent post I wrote on how needs drive innovation, we need to learn from the mBanking model and figure out what patients/consumers of health services need and design those technologies accordingly. Beyond the technology, we need to figure out:
- How has mBanking been so successful in scaling their model to reach those at the bottom of the pyramid?
- How did they operationalize it?
- How did they innovate?
- Where is mBanking failing? Note it, and improve upon it.
- How did the mBanking world address the issue of security and privacy?
Let's learn from those who've stood before us before we take on the fight to bring health to the unHealthed.

Yes, P&G hopes to help you look better, from the inside out. Campaign analysts are having a field day with this one. From calling it a "gutsy ad" to making references to "gut feelings" I'd say P&G has an uphill battle in trying to make this 75 year old laxative brand appealing to 30-somethings. How do you appeal to the young and the fabulous without alienating your existing customers? In this age of looking good, you do it by selling the benefits of enhanced beauty.
Publicis, the agency charged with brand repositioning for metamucil, has crafted sophisticated ads and sexy TV spots with beautiful women putting on makeup or fixing their hair. There is no dull talk of regularity. It's all about looking great and feeling fabulous. The product is only seen in the reflection on the mirror, alongside messages such as "primp" and "beautify your inside." The product isn't sexy, but the campaign certainly is aimed at the body-conscious.
Adweek asks if the campaign isn't marching on dangerous territory:
"Consciously or not (and if not, this seems to be a case of Clueless 101), it directly feeds into the preoccupations of girls with eating disorders, whose arsenal of products to abuse already tends to include laxatives. It shows a skinny, attractive, young model (at most in her early 20s) with her head and shoulders on the ground and her body in an upside down, weirdly contorted position, all the better to focus on her super-flat stomach. "Drop-dead gorgeous guts" reads the headline. The copy begins, "Help your not-so-glam insides reach supermodel status" and ends with "Just add Metamucil to your already diva-conscious diet and your insides will be haute-haute-haute."Yes, apparently even our insides now need to be deemed of "diva-worthy" status. In fact, the FAQs section of the product web site does, in fact, focus a bit too much on net carbs for my comfort. Trust me, if you can sell women the

Recent Drop in Mammography Rates Causes Concern
The drop in mammography rates in the United States in recent years is cause for concern because it could contribute to a future rise in breast cancer deaths, according to an analysis of data from representative national surveys published early online in Cancer.
Scientists from NCI's Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences (DCCPS), led by Dr. Nancy Breen, examined data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Health Interview Surveys (NHIS) and found a decline in mammography screening in 2005 compared with 2000 - from 70 percent to 66 percent. After many years of increases in mammography use, "[t]his report establishes for the nation what has already been observed in some local data. It confirms that use of mammography may be falling. Although small, this decline is cause for concern, as it signals a change in direction."
Mammography screening rates were lower in 2005 than in 2000 for nearly all the groups of women examined. "The largest significant declines were among women who have traditionally used mammography at high rates, including the 50-64 age group, those with higher incomes, and women aged 40-64 with private, non-HMO insurance coverage," the DCCPS investigators noted.
When screening rates drop, women with breast cancer will be diagnosed later, resulting in a short-term drop in incidence, they add. "Consequently, we are concerned that some of the observed decline in incidence may be due in part to the leveling off and reduction in mammography rates." The trend "may presage a future increase in mortality from breast cancer" from later detection of more advanced disease. "If future NHIS data continue to show a decline in mammography use, then we as a nation need to be prepared to address it," the NCI scientists concluded.
The recent decline in breast cancer incidence rates was examined in a separate study published May 3 in Breast Cancer Research. Scientists from the American Cancer Society, led by Dr. Ahmedin Jemal, examined data from NCI's Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program.
"Two distinct patterns are observed in breast cancer trends," they reported. The downturn in incidence rates in all age groups above 45 years coincides with a plateau in mammography use, which typically reduces incidence rates "due to a reduced pool of undiagnosed cases." The sharp decrease in incidence from 2002 to 2003 that occurred in women 50 to 69 years old who predominantly, but not exclusively, had ER-positive tumors may reflect the early benefit of the reduced use of hormone replacement therapy. A number of investigators within NCI-funded initiatives are now examining the contribution of recent changes in screening and hormone therapy to breast cancer trends.
HPV a Risk Factor for Oropharyngeal Cancer
A new epidemiological study led by researchers from Johns Hopkins University implicates human papillomavirus (HPV) exposure and infection as strong risk factors for oropharyngeal cancer. The results from the case-control study, published in the May 10 New England Journal of Medicine, show that HPV exposure and infection increase the risk of oropharyngeal squamous cell cancer independently of tobacco and alcohol use, two other important risk factors for the disease.
The investigators enrolled 100 patients with newly diagnosed oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma and 200 control patients in the study. Oral-mucosal and serum samples were colleted from all patients. Tumor samples were also collected from case patients. The investigators analyzed all collected samples for presence of HPV DNA or antibodies that would indicate prior exposure. Personal and medical history information collected included oral hygiene history, sexual history, and lifetime use of marijuana, tobacco, and alcohol.
Researchers found that "the presence of an oral HPV 16 infection was strongly associated with oropharyngeal cancer." HPV 16 is one of the two strains of HPV most often associated with cervical cancer. Past exposure to HPV 16, as measured by presence of antibodies to the virus in serum samples, was also strongly associated with oropharyngeal cancer. Antibodies against HPV 16 were found in 64 percent of case patients but only 4 percent of control patients. Data collected on sexual history "suggest that oral HPV infection is sexually acquired…but we cannot rule out transmission through direct mouth-to-mouth contact or other means," said the authors.
A history of heavy tobacco and alcohol use remained a strong risk factor, but "combined exposure to HPV and heavy tobacco and alcohol use was not additive," they explained. "It is important for health care providers to know that people without the traditional risk factors of tobacco and alcohol use can nevertheless be at risk for oropharyngeal cancer," stated first author Dr. Gypsyamber D'Souza in an accompanying press release.
New Data from HPV Vaccine Trials Available
Results from an average of 3 years of follow-up from the FUTURE I and FUTURE II clinical trials of Gardasil, a vaccine that protects against the two types of human papillomavirus (HPV) that are responsible for 70 percent of all cases of cervical cancer, have been published in the May 10 New England Journal of Medicine. Earlier data from the FUTURE II trial led to the FDA approval of Gardasil in June of 2006.
The FUTURE I study randomly assigned 5,455 women between the ages of 16 and 24 to receive either a 3-injection course of Gardasil vaccine or placebo. For women who had not previously been exposed to HPV 16 or 18, the efficacy of the vaccine was 100 percent in "preventing vaginal, vulvar, perineal, and perianal intraepithelial lesions or warts associated with the vaccine-type HPV."
In an intention-to-treat analysis, which included women who had previously been exposed to HPV 16 or 18, the vaccine efficacy was 73 percent against all grades of external anogenital or vaginal lesions and 55 percent against all grades of cervical lesions related to those HPV types.
The FUTURE II study randomly assigned 12,167 women between the ages of 15 and 26 to receive either a 3-injection course of Gardasil vaccine or placebo. For women who had not previously been exposed to HPV 16 or 18, the vaccine prevented 98 percent of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia related to those HPV types.
In an intention-to-treat analysis, which included women who had previously been exposed to HPV 16 or 18, vaccine efficacy was 44 percent against high-grade cervical disease caused by HPV types 16 or 18. As in the FUTURE I trial, "[v]accination did not appear to alter the course of cervical lesions related to HPV 16 or HPV 18 or of infection present at the time of randomization," explained the authors.
The vaccine reduced the rate of all cervical lesions in all patients regardless of prior HPV exposure, including lesions caused by HPV types not included in the vaccine, by 17 percent. "An interim analysis of vaccine trial data submitted to the FDA showed a disproportionate, but not statistically significant, number of cases of grade 2 or 3 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia related to nonvaccine HPV types among vaccinated women," stated Drs. George Sawaya and Karen Smith-McCune from the University of California, San Francisco, in an accompanying editorial. "Updated analyses of data from these ongoing trials will be important to determine the effect of vaccination on rates of preinvasive lesions caused by nonvaccine HPV types."
Additional reliable information from NCI about HPV vaccines and cervical cancer can be found at http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/hpv-vaccines.
Hepatitis C Increases Risk of NHL
A large, retrospective cohort study found that U.S. veterans infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) have an increased risk of developing certain lymphomas, according to study results published in the May 8 Journal of the American Medical Association.
Dr. Eric Engels of NCI's Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics and colleagues looked at patient records collected from U.S. Veterans Affairs hospitals between 1997 and 2004. Researchers selected 146,394 patients who were diagnosed with HCV infection and 572,293 patients who were not. Researchers matched the two cohorts on age, sex, and baseline visit date and type - inpatient or outpatient.
Patients with HCV infection had a 20- to 30-percent increased risk of developing non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and a nearly threefold increased risk of developing Waldenström macroglobulinemia - a rare type of NHL. Patients with HCV infection also had an elevated risk of developing cryoglobulinemia - a condition marked by abnormal levels of certain proteins in the blood.
The researchers noted, "Although the clinical significance of these findings is unknown, it is possible that screening of individuals infected with HCV could identify early-stage lymphoproliferative conditions suitable for early intervention strategies, including chemoprevention trials on premalignant disease. Future epidemiological and pathophysiological studies are needed to further explore the relationship between HCV and NHL."
Study Measures Support Group Use by California Cancer Patients
Nearly one in four people diagnosed with cancer have participated in a support group at some time in their lives, NCI researchers report, though only about half of those did so for problems related to cancer. Nonetheless, cancer survivors' 23.7 percent participation rate was much higher than the 14.5 percent of patients with another chronic illness using a support group.
These results come from an NCI study appearing online May 14 in Cancer. Dr. Julia Rowland of NCI's Office of Cancer Survivorship and colleagues say they were surprised to find that only 10.2 percent of cancer patients using a support group were recommended by their physician to do so, given that 78.4 percent of those using such support reported receiving clear and positive benefits.
Both the use of support groups and their perceived benefit varied widely by cancer site. About 26 percent of breast cancer patients had group experience, 78 percent of whom perceived benefit. The highest rate of support group use, 41 percent, was by leukemia and Hodgkin lymphoma patients, with 93 percent of these patients perceiving benefit. Less than 1 percent of lung cancer patients used a group, and those with skin cancer reported the lowest rate of perceived benefit, 35 percent.
The study was conducted using telephone surveys with 9,187 people enrolled in the California Health Interview Survey Complementary and Alternative Medicine. There were 1,844 cancer patients in the survey and 4,951 participants with other chronic health problems.

How do the latest information reporting requirements impact MNCs? (Part 2)
How FATCA requirements impact companies and their service providers
FATCA requires financial institutions to use enhanced due diligence procedures to identify US persons who have invested in either non-US financial accounts or non-US entities. The intent behind FATCA is to keep US persons from hiding income and assets overseas.
The US Department of the Treasury (Treasury) and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) released on February 20, 2014 two sets of final and temporary regulations for FATCA. The first set contains changes to the provisions of Chapter 4 of the Internal Revenue Code (Code) commonly referred to as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA Regulations). The second set of regulations (Link) coordinate the documentation standards, reporting and withholding rules relating to payments made to non-US and US persons (Chapters 3 and 61 and Section 3406 of the Code), with the FATCA regulations.
The regulations contain many changes with the impact varying depending on the products or services and whether a company's activities are on shore or offshore. Broadly speaking, the guidance is a compilation of many smaller changes and clarifications.
The ability to align all key stakeholders, including operations, technology, risk, legal, and tax, are critical to successfully complying with FATCA. Both financial institutions and nonfinancial multinational corporations should consider steps such as:
To help you prepare, PwC has formed a network of FATCA specialists in key markets throughout the world.

Honda's got a lot going on in the next few years. While the viagra order cheap hybrid version of the accord, and the hybrid FTHS sports coupe are gonna be burning up the street, there's a definite gap in Honda's hybrid lineup.
Where's the small inexpensive hybrid that gets better mileage than any other car on the road? In fewer words...where's the Insight? Well, while the Prius took off in America, Insights got the same reception as the homemade viagra EV1. Everyone loved them, but no one bought them.
But that doesn't mean Honda isn't ready to try again, with better technology, more brains and buy viagra on line more style. The car will likely look like a toned-down version of the Remix, which I was lucky enough to see at the LA Auto Show last year. The design is extremely aerodynamic and it has a definite presence. But I predict that the design we see for Honda's new small hybrid will be much more understated.
Honda is viagra sale aiming to sell here. Starting in mid-2009, they'll be building 200,000 of these a year. By comparison, Honda produced about 10,000 Insights in America over a three year period. Depending on the technology, and whether lighter lithium ion batteries are ready by 2009, this car could easily break 100 mpg.
While the Prius is going to remain the hybrid choice for those with money to brand levitra canada spend and soccer games to attend, this new car from Honda is going to fill a gap that I've long been waiting to be filled. And priced at under $25,000, I might even be able to afford it.Via AutoBlogGreen
written by Hun Boon, May 16, 2007
And people like to flaunt their eco-credentials too, which is why the Civic Hybrid isn't doing too well. It looks identical to www.investordaily.com.au the standard Civic. Who can tell they're driving a hybrid?
That is why the Prius is selling so well.

Why oh why do people do everything they can to not make their own pizza dough? They buy for the local pizza place… just buy the pizza and get it over with. They buy refrigerated roll out dough. They flatten biscuits. They buy precooked pieces of bread labeled pizza crust. I'm sure I'm missing some of other dodges. If you think of some, put them in the comments.
This is a recipe that I have been using almost 40 years. (Did I just let my age slip a little?) It was on the side of a Gold Metal Flour bag and I'm sure I have modified it some over the years but the principles are the same. Start with warm water. Add twice as much flour. Add some yeast, oil, salt and sugar. Keep it warm and let it double in size. Spread it out and let it set about 10 minutes if you want thicker crust. If you want thinner crust (like my 4 cheese pizza) make a smaller amount and spread it thin and don't let it set.
The easiest 5 I have even given. I suspect I have done this over 1000 times. Once a week when the kids were young. Twice a week when I was young. And still at least monthly.
Notes: You must "keep it warm". Here are a few tips.
- "Preheat" your bowl with hot water.
- Use water of 100-110 degrees in the dough.
- Do NOT put the bowl on a stone type counter top. Put a wooden cutting board between it and the counter if that is where you want it to let it raise.
- Cover with a heavy towel.
- Don't keep checking it. It will take at least 35-40 minutes to double in size.
- If it is really cold, then preheat your oven to it's lowest setting then turn it off and use it as your warm spot to raise the dough.
A Note About Yeast: All baker yeast is the same organism (Saccharomyces cerevisiae). Old fashion active dry yeast is processed differently and has less live yeast so will work slower. Other wise consider quick, cake, fast or any other adjective use approximately the same. Yes, even that "special" pizza yeast. The amount of yeast in a packet is about 2 1/2 tsp. I use balk yeast usually and use a light tablespoon (3 teaspoon minus a little) as the same thing. I also like adding the yeast to the water first to be sure I have even distribution of the little critters. Many will mix the yeast with the flour and that works also. When I make a smaller amount, I still will use a pack of yeast. I do increase the yeast if doubling.
Posted separately for easy reference in future posts (like the next one).
In a large mixing bowl combine 2 cups of warm water (about 100-110 degrees) with 1 tablespoon oil, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp sugar and one packet of a rapid rising yeast. Mix well. Add 4 cups of AP flour.
Mix will with spatula and then finish with a little of hand kneading to get all the flour incorporated. Add a little more flour or water to make a relatively light but not too sticky dough. Usually you won't need to add anything. Dust with a little flour on all sides when done.
Cover in a warm place until double in size. About 40-45 minutes.
Oil a large pan. A 15 inch round pan or this is a sheet pan.
Flour your hands and spread the dough. A little flour on top of the dough helps some. Let set for about 10 minutes if you want a real thick crust.
Top as you desire. (That post is coming up next). Cook for about 20-25 minutes in a preheated 425 degree convection oven.
- 2 cups Warm water
- 4 cups AP flour
- 1 pack or 1 T rapid or quick yeast

Everyone finds it easy to point the finger at Ben Bernanke for the recent turn of events in the stock market. It's extremely difficult to feel any sense of empowerment when both stocks and bonds are falling or rising in tandem.
Market momentum is hard to determine
Recently, an economic report indicated that the United Sates economy rose by 1.8%. This is below the Federal Reserve's goal of 2.3% to 2.5% long-term economic growth. Because of this, it is perceived that quantitative easing will continue.
Source: Federal Reserve
What actually happened was a 1.8% growth rate for the economy in the first quarter of 2013. This growth is below the Federal Reserve's projection. This is helping to ease the fears of an unanticipated end to quantitative easing. Both bonds and stocks are rallying on the basis of weaker economic data (sounds ridiculous, right? I agree completely).
By 2015, it is highly probable the Federal Funds rate will be raised. If that is the case, then the bond market will fare poorly. Investors have to diversify out of bonds into stocks. I compiled a list of stocks that I believe will have the most upside with a reasonable amount of risk and reward.
Semiconductors are an excellent start
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (NYSE: TSM) is a company that manufactures integrated circuits based on the specifications that different companies have. IDC projects that the smartphone market is likely to grow at a 16% compound annual growth rate up until 2017. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing projects that the tablet market will grow at a 23% compound annual growth rate until 2017. The company is likely to thrive going forward.
Tablets are seen as a compelling alternative to traditional tower and laptop computers in emerging market economies. Fortunately, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing will be deeply involved in the process of building integrated circuits for these devices. The company also has 45% of the foundry market share, so it's likely to grow based on the macroeconomic headwinds of the industry.
The company trades at a 16.3 earnings multiple, which is reasonable when considering the projected demand for both tablet and smartphone devices. Analysts on a consensus basis anticipate the company to grow earnings by 15% per year over the next five years. The growth paired with a 2.8% dividend yield is appealing.
Web services
Yahoo! (NASDAQ: YHOO) could have a lot of potential. Remember, we're talking about a company that has recently switched management to Marissa Mayer. The CEO is busy at work cutting back on unnecessary spending, juggling the needs of the media empire, and expanding into new business opportunities. The CEO believes that Hulu and Tumblr could be compelling investment opportunities. While I'm not exactly certain of why the company bought out Tumblr, there's no denying that it has to acquire more companies in order to sustain revenue growth.
Tumblr may be advertised the heck out of, or the company could provide certain blog writers a subscription feature and collect fees from turning content into something that can be monetized.
The company provided full-year guidance of doubling non-GAAP operating income from $566 million in the previous fiscal year to $1.1 billion in the current fiscal year. I find it highly likely that the company's position in the web space will remain constant if it can continue to lower the cost of running the business. It should be able to sustain high rates of earnings growth just by finding ways to save money.
Websites really don't cost that much money to run, and when you operate at the scale of Yahoo!, the company could grow earnings substantially. Beyond just saving money, the company will grow earnings by finding lucrative business opportunities and investing into them.
Convenience a great commodity
Walgreen (NYSE: WAG) has a lot of earnings growth potential going forward as the company has plans of growing its store footprint through using leverage. The company plans to increase its debt load to $11 billion from its current $5.3 billion in order to increase the amount of revenue it can earn. It also plans to increase its capital expenditure spending, as well. The company plans to grow its revenue by 80.5% through 2016. Walgreen also plans to increase its operating income by 131% over the same period.
Over the past five years, the company has been able to grow revenue by 21.3%. It grew earnings per share by approximately 11.5% over the past five years. So if Walgreen is able to pull this off, it's going to be disruptive in nature, and will throw off any historically driven earnings growth-rate projection that analysts have on the stock.
Assuming Walgreen is successful at this, then it is a lucrative investment opportunity. The stock trades at a 14.8 earnings multiple, but with the company hoping to double operating income in a span of just three years, the stock is actually really cheap. Walgreen also compensates investors with a 2.5% dividend yield.
I believe that investors should buy Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing as the company has the most growth potential of the three companies. Yahoo! will grow earnings the fastest of the three as there is very little overhead needed to run a website, a lot of the internal functions of the company can be outsourced to third- party content creators, and the amount of web-development could be reduced to even smaller teams. Finally, I believe that Walgreen -- if it were to deliver upon its plans for rapid growth -- could turn into a significant investment opportunity.

Kimberly's How-To Guide is That's What Kim Said's newest segment. It will be switched in and out with the comedy corner so that I can keep things fresh. Occasionally I will be submitting advice on how NOT to do something…how fun is that? This advice will be based on either my personal experience or what I've observed from others. Please take that into consideration when choosing to either follow or not follow my advice. That being said, please enjoy the first installment of Kimberly's How To Guide.
How to: Get Permanent Marker off Your Body
Has anyone ever written a reminder, a website, a phone number, etc on your hand in permanent marker? Have you ever woken up after a party and had something like a mustache or a monocle drawn on your face with a Sharpie? If you've ever been in a situation like this, you've probably found that removing permanent marker from your skin is easier said than done.
Based on my observations, guys and even some girls, spend way too much time scrubbing their skin raw while trying to remove their unwanted body art. No need to turn yourselves into tomatoes people. There is a much easier solution: Nail Polish remover. The fastest way to get permanent marker off of your skin without scrubbing for long periods of time is nail polish remover. Ladies, you probably already have some at your dorm, apartment, or house. Guys, you probably know a few ladies you can borrow nail polish remover from. If not, a quick trip to the drug store will fix you right up. If you feel weird buying nail polish remover, just tell the cashier that it's for your girlfriend and you're just glad that's all she had you pick up for her. I'm sure the cashier won't suspect a thing. Seriously though, nail polish remover is really handy when it comes to removing nail polish, permanent marker, even temporary tattoos.

Bill Curry asked that Cheryl Levick, Georgia State's athletic director, not refer to him Wednesday as a legend. Having played under Bobby Dodd, Vince Lombardi and Don Shula, Curry is sensitive about the word and its usage. And there is, ahem, the issue of whether it actually applies.
Bill Curry's career record is 92-118-4. He has had seven winning seasons in the 19 he has worked at Georgia Tech, Alabama, Kentucky and now Georgia State. He announced Wednesday that the season ahead will be his last as a coach. It will not, he hopes, be his last as a person of influence, and that's the good news. If there's such a thing as a legendary voice of reason, Bill Curry is it.
This correspondent met Curry 28 years ago, just after he gave a speech to a Yellow Jacket booster club proclaiming that his Tech team "will drive the cheaters to their knees." Fans of rival schools were outraged. The AJC columnist Lewis Grizzard, an admitted and ardent Georgia fan, demanded that Curry name names or hush his mouth.
On May 15, 1984, Curry spoke these words in defense of his oratory: "I'd like to see responsible people in all programs get involved and start asking questions. Are players being pushed to go to class in tough majors? Are they being recruited illegally? Are they being fed steroids? … There's a vast silent majority out there on a lot of issues. We've all been guilty about watching something happen. That's the power of inertia. We don't want to rock the boat — maybe it'll go away. But it's a funny thing about bad things: They don't seem to go away."
On Aug. 15, 2012, the day he announced his impending retirement as coach, Curry spoke of the "incredible quandary" facing schools regarding the scope and place of collegiate football. He mentioned "dollars and foolishness." He said: "I'd like to be part of the solution."
There are those, it must be noted, who have long considered Curry a raging hypocrite. If he'd won as big at Alabama as the Bear had, they insist, he wouldn't be complaining about systemic excesses. (For the record, three of Curry's winning seasons were the years he spent coaching the Tide, and in 1989 he led Alabama to a share of the SEC title. Then, tired of fighting his own athletic department, he left for Kentucky.)
Asked Wednesday if we speak too little about those excesses and too much about winning games, Curry said: "Absolutely, and that's a question you ought to ask every chance you get. If you complain about it [as a coach], it sounds like you're making excuses. But somebody needs to address it. The college presidents really need to take a look at their value system."
And there's the reason it's tempting to refer to a 69-year-old coach with a losing record as a legend. Curry has been good for college football because he has never been afraid to mention the bad. His teams have waxed and waned — the 1985 Tech team that finished 9-2-1 was expertly coached; the 1994 Kentucky team that went 1-10 was just wretched — but his principles have not.
Why is he retiring? In part because of his five grandchildren. "Of Super Bowl rings and jet airplanes and flying all over the place and honors and trophies," Curry said, "the one thing that is highly touted but not overrated is grandchildren."
Then this: "I thought it was the right thing to do [as a younger coach] to work 90 hours a week, and I missed my children growing up. I'm not going to do that again."
Curry worked, and continues to work, the 80- and 90-hour weeks because it's what football coaches do, but somebody needs to ask: Is working 80- and 90-hour weeks something anyone should do? Curry is one guy, maybe the only guy of such eminence, who'll pose the question. As much as he has meant to his players at previous stops, as much as he has done from lifting Georgia State from a program without even a chinstrap to the Sun Belt and FBS status, his greatest purpose has been as a conscience.
He's a smart man who's not easily cowed, and sometimes that gets him into trouble. Take the 1984 speech. Curry revealed Wednesday that he took the podium that night having just read an impassioned letter from a Georgia fan saying that Tech would never ever beat the Bulldogs. "I turned into that offensive center who had to block Ray Nitschke by slamming into him," he said. "Carolyn [his wife] tried to warn me, but I spoke in anger."
History records that Curry's Jackets beat Georgia 35-18 in Sanford Stadium six months later, and by December the Bulldogs would be under NCAA investigation. (Curry insists he didn't rat out his rival.) Even so, he still regrets the speech. "The last thing we need is some idiot saying we're going to bring the cheaters to their knees," he said.
Right about many things, he's wrong about this. College football already has enough Nick Sabans and Urban Meyers and Lane Kiffins. Now more than ever, the sport needs Bill Currys.

Jeez at all the accolades being dumped on Curry. I remember when he was at Tech: 2-19-1 his first two seasons, constant beatdowns at the hands of Auburn, never could defeat Furman, beat UNC just one time. Thanks goodness for The Citadel and Memphis State in 1982 or that would have been a losing season, too. To top it off, all he had to do was beat Wake Forest in 1986 to get the Jackets to the Bluebonnet Bowl and he blew that!

Solid guy. Never much cared for him, but that's looking at him from a public perspective. Players love him, nuff said. Going to Bama was a mistake, and Bama showed their real colors. Killing trees, throwing bricks etc. That's why there is never any news of trouble over there due to Governor on down being ALL in. Wish Curry the best and good health, Tech guy and all.

I believe Curry was influenced very much by Coach Dodd and carried the principles he learned from the "grey fox" into his coaching carear. However, his basic good character and honest approach was probably learned from his parents.

In 1985 a young man from Lowndes County signed with Curry's Tech team as a highly touted QB. He played in the spring game and then was severely injured in a terrible car crash that summer. He would never play football again but Coach Curry honored his scholarship anyway.
Good coach, great man. We need more like him in college football today.

If, and that is a big word, if they get an aggressive, young coach, I can see Georgia State becoming a power in their league. Should be able to pick up upperclassmen from Tech and Georgia that are not getting much playing time, and combine that with the abundance of high school talent within a 50 mile radius, that are not quite good enough for the SEC, and things should look good for GSU.
August 15th, 2012
6:10 pm
Hire Curray as the head of the NCAA's Task Force Against Cheating. He sounds like a natural, and he already knows his way around the state of Alabama.
August 15th, 2012
7:33 pm
A great person, and yes, compared to many today, he is a legend. While the winning record as a coach isn't that great, he was a key part of the great Green Bay Packer teams. He has succeeded in two different careers and most importantly, as leader of men.
August 15th, 2012
7:44 pm
Coach Curry is a fine man and an average Coach at best. If not for a dumbazz President of the U of A (Joab Thomas) Bill would have never been on the list. Joab hired a sales manager instead of a football coach. Bill pissed off everybody in the A Club with the exception of the plastic surgeon All American center. Bill was gone before the 1st game of 1989.
Do yourself a favor and stop your little girls whinning about Alabama. Beat somebody that has beaten somebody and most will listen.
August 15th, 2012
7:46 pm
I am a UGA grad and I have the utmost respect for Curry. The sad thing is that there are only 29 comments as the nay-sayers have nothing to say as it is not an indictment of UGA, cheating at AU, dirty recruiting at Bama, etc. God forbid the trolls comment on an article about a man who took a stand against what has become the most corrupted sport in history. With that being said, I would trade nothing for college football. Go Dawgs!

I hope if my grandsons play football, they will be lead by someone like Coach Curry.

Curry is a legend. In just a few seasons he turned a non-existent football program into a Division I team. He did the exact same thing at Kentucky, only in reverse.

The metrics may not support the "legend" designation, but the man and his heart do. I've heard Bill Curry speak twice in my life – once delivering the eulogy of a good friend and once delivering a talk to a youth group. Both times he had the crowd laughing and crying, but more importantly, he left us with life altering take aways that were amazing anecdotes from his life. A bound between a white, undersized rookie and a huge, black All Pro that altered his rookie camp with Green Bay and his life. Encounters with Bobby Dodd. His love and respect for his wife. An amazing man and a great inspiration to us all, even an old Bulldog like myself. God speed Bill Curry – I hope the free time you have will be well spent with your family AND in front of groups that are hungry for your inspiration.

Two great memories of Bill Curry at Tech: Goes to a bowl game and kicks the starting QB off the team for rules infractions and wins the game anyway. A DB makes an interception in another game and makes a big show on the field. When he comes off the field, Curry grabs him by the face mask, pulls him to his face and starts chewing him a new one; the kid tries to turn away from Curry and he yanks the face mask back around and continues to chew the kid out. I don't care what his won/loss was, he did and still does coach the game the right way. He's a legend in MY book.

I thought he'd have been an excellent AD at Tech.

Enough Nick Saban's? Really? Same scumbag category as Urban "quit for personal reasons" Meyer and lane "send the girls out to recruit" Kiffen? Bradley=complete homer dbag. Curry, though, is a decent fella that just never could figure out how to beat allbarn. RTR!
