Written By Allan "Zardon" Campbell
Street Fighter is an iconic game series and if you are as old as me you will remember playing earlier versions of the games in the arcades. Yes, the good old gaming days when you chucked many coins into the machines and ended up going home later, skint.
Super Street Fighter IV is not 'the' comeback story – that happened last year with the champion brought out of retirement to fight one last time. Street Fighter IV was such a success that it even surpassed Capcom's wildest dreams. Street Fighter IV was never targeted to the arcades and as such it wasn't a huge success in that arena, however within the console market it sold by the bucketload. It was the Sylvester Stallone 'Rocky' of comebacks.
Many claim that Super Street Fighter IV is a little bit of a cash cow and it is hard to ignore the fact that slapping a 'super' in front of a successful title could be easily perceived that way. Fortunately spending a little bit of time with this game assures the gamer that Capcom have once again delivered the goods.
Many of the improvements have been sourced from the plethora of gamers who played IV, and normally when a publisher listen to the audience they can be assured of a successful follow up (not always mind you). 10 New characters have enhanced the original lineup of 25 and a few totally new additions enter the fray in the shape of Tae-Kwon-Do expert Juri and Turkish Wrestler Hakan.
The strongest aspect of Super Street Fighter IV is that each of these fighters offers a different fighting experience which requires strategic planning and spending some time learning all the combination of moves. The aforementioned Juri for instance has immense armor crushing dive kick attacks and Ibuki (a ninja) has a wide array of attacks to confuse any fighter not on the top of their game.
All of the characters have their own unique fighting style and all of them add something worthwhile to the experience. They are all also unlocked from the start so you don't need to fight through the arcade mode to end up with the player you want. New costume colours and taunts are also earned by playing as a character in any mode, which is refreshing.
Capcom have listened to the user base and now the damage has been fine tuned and subsequently reduced in most areas to make for a more balanced experience. Thankfully the ultra moves aren't quite as devastating and its possible to take two of these attacks and still win the game, even if that is rather a tall order at times.
The online aspects have also been overhauled and there are three battle modes available. Ranked – with you playing one on one matches across either one, three or five rounds. You get awarded currency in the shape of either Battle Points or Player Points.
Team Battle operates much like a Tournament system, allowing 2v2, 3v3 and 4v4 games, with the overall winning team getting a trophy cup for their efforts. You can select the order you fight in, so strategy will play an important part in how well you do, from character to character.
Endless Mode caters for up to eight players to play 'winner stays on' inside a lobby environment. These players not only can fight but those not fighting can talk about the battle together and the next player in the order can reserve their spot to fight next by pressing the relevant button. It is a worthwhile addition which rewards interaction between players and can also heighten the tension considerably.
Super Street Fighter IV also offers an impressive Replay Channel which allows every player to save, name and rate 150 matches which they can rewatch at any time they wish. These can be viewed in slow motion and you can even invite friends into your Channel to watch the best fights. Many people are using these replay options as a means to ascertain their individual fighting weaknesses which is a wonderful idea.
Time Trial and Survival modes have been removed and it is no great loss as more development time has went into the Character Trials which offer 24 increasingly difficult combos and moves to master across each of the 35 characters in the game. Rewards are given with gamertags, icons and titles to parade in front of your friends.
Just as before the mini games make a return, with the car smashing and barrel breaking still options to 'mix up' the traditional combat areas – they don't appeal to me and I wouldn't miss them if they were removed, but I am sure some people find they add a little value for money in the overall context of the game. If, like me you hate them, then they are easily toggled off.
For the Street Fighter fan, the new SUPER edition is a fine update which tweaks and fine tunes the original code and offers a more balanced and enjoyable game. If you already own the original game however and are a 'casual' fan then this might be a hard price tag to swallow.

I woke up early to the sound of the engines, and had a look outside. Still dark. We seemed to be moving very slowly, and were obviously close to Auckland, judging by the lights on the land in the not too far distance. Went back to bed to savour the last minutes of the cruise.
When I finally got up and looked outside, we were docked and so close to the Hilton Hotel on the pier that I think we could have touched the people standing on their room verandas having a look at the ship docking. They seemed even closer than the people in Sydney had been – quite an odd experience.
We had trouble getting Kate up out of bed, but managed eventually, and then went up to a quick breakfast. We gave Violetta and Alex a small Australian souvenir as well as their tip. People in the suite next door were having their photo taken with Alex. We eventually made it to the Olympic where a private disembarkation lounge for Captain's Club members had been set up – only to find that our number (Red 2) had already been called. So, we headed off the ship.
More customs inspections and dogs, but no problems taking our chocolates and remaining tea bags off. Our bags were waiting for us, and we went outside to wait for our tour guide to arrive – he had given us very clear instructions, so we knew where to wait. We were early so watched the disembarkation process for a while, and the narrow space available between two buildings for all traffic was a logistical nightmare – traffic going both ways, reversing, turning, removal trucks, pedestrians. But, in spite of all that, people got off the ship, onto buses for tours or taxis and the area kept clearing without too much people congestion at all.
Our guide, Guy King of Select Tours, arrived right on time, and pulled into the parking lot where we were waiting. We then had a delightful tour of Auckland, and benefited from Guy's prodigious knowledge of history and of current events. We stopped at Kelly Tauntons to see king penguins up close – very good. We had lunch at the Yacht Club on the waterfront where the America's Cup lived, and watched people climbing the Harbour Bridge – but it didn't seem to be as much of a feat as the Sydney Bridge Climb is. We then continued our tour, finally ending up at the airport, where Guy escorted us until we went through to boarding. Our upgrades to business class had come through, so we had a good flight home. I'd recommend his company if you are looking for a personalised tour of the city – it was a very, very pleasant day.
I called our Alaska cruise decadent, and cruising is a wonderful way to escape reality for a couple of weeks. I can see why people get addicted to cruising, and I'm certainly saving hard for our Scandinavian cruise next year. For me, cruising is about relaxing and not having to be anywhere at any particular time, so we spend a bit of time just doing nothing much. I know others spend more time in the bars and nightclubs and have a great time, and I think that is the beauty of cruising – you can always find somewhere to spend time alone, or you can be with lots of other people if you want to. Lovely.

105 Montana Hall
Minutes from Professional Council Meeting, 2/1/12, 10:00 am
Present: Jeff Littlefield, Nora Smith, Julie Tatarka, Jeanne Wilkinson, Betsey Pitts, Pat Lane, Carolyn Plumb, Chancey Ringer, Erika Swanson, Adam Edelman
Others present: Donna Negaard, Joseph Thiel, Steve EriksonThe meeting was called to order at 10:10 am by Chair Wilkinson. The minutes from the 01/18/2012 meeting were reviewed and unanimously approved. The meeting began with introductions from all attendees.
Announcements Wilkinson: The search committee for the new CIO ITC position has been formed, and though PC did not get to appoint a professional representative, there was a professional employee appointed by the search chair. Duties of the new CIO will focus on the MSU-Bozeman campus where most of the computer equipment resides, but they may also have additional four-campus responsibilities. PC did not attend the BoR in January due to inclement weather however, Wilkinson and Smith are planning to attend the meeting in March. Discussions continue with Staff Senate Chair Thane on how to incorporate PC into the scheduled BoR luncheon discussions. One suggestion for accomplishing that was to change the luncheon name from Classified Staff Luncheon to Staff Luncheon to include both professional and classified employees.. Wilkinson reported that the BoR is forming a compensation focus group. Dennis Defa, the new Chief Human Resource Officer, expressed an interest in meeting with PC, which Wilkinson will arrange.
Professional Development So far, the public speaking seminar on February 7, 2012 at 11:00 am in EPS 103 has received 45 RSVPs. Tatarka will place an announcement in MSU Today.
Past Professional Council Member Get Together: - Pitts scheduled the past/present PC membership gathering for April 4, 2012, Wednesday, 3-6, SUB 235. Plumb volunteered to assist.
Strategic Planning Committee (SPC) Charrette (where citizens, designers and others collaborate on a vision for development) Plumb announced that the SPC has been establishing several goals with measureable outcomes, as well as newly crafted values and visions, for MSU for the past several months. A Strategic Planning Fair is planned for February 8, 2012, 12-6, SUB Ballroom B where all MSU employees are encouraged to attend and participate. Refreshments will be served.
Student BoR Representative Joseph Thiel: PC members thanked Thiel for his work and for attending the PC meeting. Thiels learning curve as the student BoR rep has included meeting s with the MUS Commissioner, heads of councils and those who are familiar with the BoR processes in a compressed amount of time. Wilkinson presented Thiel with the Professional Fact Sheet and gave background information about professional employees at MSU and Professional Council.. Wilkinson remarked that over the last few years, PC has worked diligently to make professionals more visible and to establish itself as a resource that will positively interact with other campus constituents, the BoR and legislators. Pitts remarked that up until last year, professionals had never met formally with the BoR, despite efforts to do so in the past. Thiel encouraged PC to continue to work with the Classified Staff on their incorporation into the scheduled luncheon. Thiel stated that he would like PC to contact him if there are issues or information they would like imparted to the BoR, should they not be able to do so themselves.
Swanson elaborated on the rewards of her involvement in PC in the context of connecting with people and queried what the next steps might be to enhance those experiences. She expressed how PC members would like to become mobilized, become more involved with students and to educate individuals about what professionals do, on and off campus. Thiel suggested collaborating with other campus groups about how PC may coordinate and integrate their efforts. Thiel also suggested professionals collaborate with students, in a grassroots effort, by traveling across the state to speak to Montana citizens, personally, about MSU. Thiel believes that issues brought to the BoR should be a few valuable concerns/issues that all constituents agree on; otherwise, BoR members become overwhelmed with too much information.
Thiel talked about the valuable experiences he has had at MSU, the hallmark of which was his ability to assume responsibility for his own destiny and to contribute to the MSU community. He is a dual major: Chemistry/Biochemistry and Liberal Studies. He emphasized that his research lab experience was valuable in that student s are allowed to perform their own research with full support from MSU staff. He is a member of Engineers without Borders and has worked with ASMSU for the past few years participating as a rep on many university committees writing policy and resolutions and experiencing, first hand, how the university works and how difficult decision-making is.
Thiel turned his attention to MUSs Strategic Plan and asked PC for input regarding prioritization of issues, should particular emphasis be placed on some issues more than others, what may be missing from the list, and how we may better integrate professional employees to determine this strategy. Thiel rated the issues in order of importance:
- Need-based Financial Aid How to come up with ways (state, private) to maintain the education that should be available to students.
- Graduate Education Accommodate graduate students and focus on how research contributes to the state. What ways may we encourage that?
- Data and Information Create more integrated information system across the MUS to increase efficiency and build into it and improve the ease of transferability.
- Efficiency Program prioritization process across the MUS; reallocate resources to invest in our strengths and performance based funding.
Lane commented on her experiences as an advisor, with transferability and what strides have been made with respect to students being able to take online classes. Plumb believes the graduate education piece is crucial, that MSU should be more competitive with their incentive packages, but strive to balance the faculty-teaching structure for undergraduate courses. Negaard informed PC that last summer, the BoR passed an initiative making non-resident graduates eligible for a reduced tuition rate coming in as TAs/RAs. Edelman asked how some of these priorities would be financed, not only in terms of money, but in terms of human resources. Thiel stated that emphasis on those issues that are most important to the campus community would be presented to the legislators to request a one-time monetary infusion of funds to initiate action. Swanson added that student work studies are tantamount to running her office efficiently. Erikson relayed his experiences with negative student retention in the area of class availability and how financial aid is awarded. Continuing the discussion, Thiel stated that the average student loan debt upon graduation, in Montana, is around $22,000. Broken down into Pell eligibility portions, students racking up the most debt are those just above Pell eligibility. Montana ranks near the bottom in terms of providing need-based aid. Previously, Montana had some of the lowest loan default rates in the nation; now, those rates are doubling, tripling. Swanson believes that many of the first-generation families need financial literacy training. Thiel noted that Montana needs more creative ways to secure need-based dollars. One thought is to bring the concept of holding back 25% of new tuition increases and funneling it towards need-based students, and to ask the legislature for matching funds. Smith closed with asking Thiel to keep PC informed about how they may assist students at the upcoming BoR meeting in March.
As there was no other business, the meeting ended at 11:00 am.

The Bermudas
A day or two of such fanciful voyaging, brought us in sight of the Bermudas, which first looked like mere summer clouds, peering above the quiet ocean. All day we glided along in sight of them, with just wind enough to fill our sails.
I have the mortification to inform your Excellency that I have been forced to give up the posts of York and Gloucester, and to surrender the troops under my command, by capitulation, on the 19th instant, as prisoners of war to the combined forces of America and France.
Manhattan Island
The first discovery of Manhattan Island has been generally ascribed to Henry Hudson, an Englishman by birth, who, in the year 1690, being then in the service of the Dutch, sailed westward from the shores of Europe, in search of a northwest passage to the East Indies.
The Valley Of Waterfalls
Since 1851, when the first stranger entered the Yosemite, it has been visited by some forty-three thousand persons.
Bunker Hill
Properly and strictly speaking, there was no Commander-in-Chief in the Bunker Hill battle. The troops from the different States were strangers to each other. The battle itself was unexpected, and may be said to have been accidental.
Ticonderoga is a corruption of Cheonderoga, an Iroquois word, signifying Sounding Waters, and was applied by the Indians to the rushing waters of the outlet of Lake George at the falls.
Lake Champlain
Beautiful Lake Champlain owes its name to Saumel de Champlain, the founder of Quebec. In 1609, long before the Pilgrim Fathers landed at Plymouth, he joined a band of Huron and Algonquin warriors on an expedition against their enemies, the Iroquois, since known as the Five Nations of New York.
San Francisco
The Palace Hotel at San Francisco is, I believe, the largest in the world. The largest, but by no means the ugliest, as I had expected to find. It is a vast quadrilateral building, seven or eight stories high, but in fair proportions.
The Chesapeake Bay
The Chesapeake Bay, ten leagues broad, and four, five, six, and even seven fathoms deep, flows gently between its shores. It abounds in fish when the season of the year is favourable. A more beautiful body of water you can scarcely find.
This great city of Temixtitan, Mexico is situated on this salt lake, and from the mainland to the denser parts of it, the distance is two leagues. There are four avenues or entrances to the city, all of which are formed by artificial causeways.
St. Augustine
The name of St. Augustine was given, in the usual manner of the early voyagers, because they had arrived upon the coast on the day dedicated in their calendar to that eminent saint of the primitive church.
But if Chicago has her lake to redeem her, Denver has her mountains. No city can be wholly unpleasing where you can look up from a street of railway ticket-offices and mining agencies to see a great mountain filling the end of the vista.
Lake George
So admirably attuned are all the elements of beauty in the scenery of Lake George, that on our first acquaintance with the region we could scarcely imagine it ever to appear under a different aspect than the sunny phase in which we then saw it.
Plymouth Rock
The narrow peninsula, sixty miles long, which terminates in Cape Cod, projects eastwardly from the mainland of Massachusetts, in shape resembling the human arm bent rectangularly at the elbow and again at the wrist.
Fort Niagara
Fort Niagara is in the State of New York, and stands on a point of land at the mouth of the Niagara River.
The Mississippi River
The first Europeans who are certainly known to have discovered and explored the Mississippi river, were two Frenchmen, Father Marquette and M. Joliet, in the year 1673.
Chicago believes that her parks are unsurpassed in the world, and certainly they will be prodigiously fine—when they are finished. Broad drives and winding alleys, ornamental trees, banks and beds of flowers and flowering shrubs, lakes, and ornamental bridges, and turf that cools the eye under the fiercest noon—you bet your life Chicago's got them all.
Boston Harbor
It was Sunday, the 28th day of November, 1773, when there sailed into Boston Harbour the English merchant ship Dartmouth, laden with chests of tea belonging to the East India Company.
The country between Burgoyne's position at Saratoga and that of the Americans at Stillwater was rugged, and seamed with creeks and water-courses. But, after great labour in making bridges and temporary causeways, the British army moved forward.
Sault Ste. Marie
The St. Mary's River, which separates the upper peninsula of Michigan from Canada, and connects Lake Huron with Lake Superior, is sixty-three miles long, and is probably the most difficult of navigation on the continent.
A Daughter of Liberty, in Boston, privately notified Samuel Adams and John Hancock, who had withdrawn from Boston and were residing in Lexington, that within a few days the troops would leave the town, but the object of the expedition was not ascertained.
San Salvador
The island where Columbus had thus, for the first time, set his foot upon the New World, was called by the natives Guanahané. It still retains the name of San Salvador, which he gave to it, though called by the English Cat Island.
West Point
A steam ferry-boat connects West Point with the Garrison Station of the Hudson River Railway opposite. Near the latter is the old ferry-place of the Revolution, where troops crossed to and from West Point.
The Acquisition Of Louisiana
Know, that, having been requested by the said Sieur de la Salle to deliver to him an act, signed by us and by the witnesses therein named, of possession by him taken of the country of Louisiana, near the three mouths of the River Colbert, in the Gulf of Mexico, on the 9th of April, 1682.
Lee, at the opposite entrance to Gettysburg, had arrived on the first, in season to watch from Seminary Ridge the new position which his flying foe was taking. His mind was not yet made up to fight an offensive battle.
St. Anthony And Minnehaha
A drive of less than fifteen minutes from Fort Snelling, in the direction of St. Anthony, brings the tourist to a waterfall that makes a lifetime impression.
Newport occupies the southwest corner of the island upon which the little state of Rhode Island, of which it forms a considerable part, was named. To the old aboriginal occupants the region was known as Aquidneck, Aquitneck, or Aquethneck.
The Plains Of Abraham
Great preparations are making, throughout the fleet and army, to surprise the enemy, and compel them to decide the fate of Quebec by a battle.
The French early saw that the Detroit River was a miniature Straits of Gibraltar to all the water that lay beyond, and, as far back as 1701, established there its most important western station.
The Alamo Henry Bruce
The Alamo was an old Franciscan Mission, dating from the beginning of the Eighteenth Century. It was surrounded by walls three feet thick, and eight feet high. It covered, altogether, an area of nearly three acres.

Healthy, Delicious Dining for a solo traveler in Manhattan Beach?
- v
- VintageMolly Oct 1, 2010 08:40 AM
I'll be staying for several days in Manhattan Beach on business, and I'm looking for some good options so I don't have to resort to California Pizza Kitchen. Preference for asian cuisines or middle eastern/ Mediterranean, but anything yummy will do.
I've tried searching the board, but have mostly found threads about what a culinary wasteland Manhattan Beach is.
Surely it's not that bad? I'm just looking for one or two good spots to get takeout from, or enjoy while reading a book. I'd be willing to drive a little if that's what it takes.
Petros for very good greek food.

re: wienermobile
Recently had the Karpouzi salad, with fresh watermelon, tomato and feta, drizzled with honey. The honey was an unexpected pleasure as it perfectly offset the light acidity of the watermelon.
The dip combo was also pretty good, although I liked some more than others. The Kafteri was my favorite. The Tzatiki with cucumber burned the inside of my mouth for some reason. I'm not sure what was in there.
Good coffee shop-diner type food at the 24 hour The Kettle in Manhattan Beach.
re: wienermobile
respectfully disagree,
imho, most of the food served at the kettle is fair, not good.
re: wienermobile
Strong second for the Kettle. An upscale coffee shop with some excellent breakfast fare. I try to get down here every couple of months for their outstanding eggs and stuffed French toast (pain perdu) consisting of 2 eggs, sausage or bacon, breakfast potatoes and French toast stuffed with cream cheese and orange marmalade. I love the Kettle.
re: Servorg
Stumbled upon the 38th Annual Manhattan Beach Home Town Fair this morning. Looks like a pretty darn big event as I pedaled through the middle of it on N. Valley Dr. near 15th Street. See this link for food and drink related information (including a beer garden...mmmm beer): http://www.mbfair.org/Food_%26_Drinks...
re: Servorg
yea...funnel cake.
For good udon and soba you might like Taiko, right next door to Manhattan Beach in El Segundo.

North End Cafe- as seen on Food Network's Diners, Drive-ins and Dives is good for breakfast and lunch.
North End Cafe

re: wienermobile
I really like North End as well. They definitely have healthy options and some pretty delicious food.
Al Noor is nearby in Lawndale for first-rate Punjabi dishes (paneer tikka masala, karahi, korma, palak, etc.)
For convenient Middle Eastern, there's Open Sesame in the Marina Village complex in MB; nothing to write home about, but still fairly good.

Manhattan Beach has a very nice but small farmers market Tuesdays 11am-4pm. Good produce and tasty treats.
and there is a Le Pain Quoitidien right around the corner from the open market.
Le Pain Quotidien
451 Manhattan Beach Blvd, Manhattan Beach, CA 90266
re: wienermobile
LPQ is a great breakfast/lunch option on the same small plaza as Petro's. (By the way, when dining solo at Petro's, I'd suggest getting a sampling of their mezes, which are outstanding, rather than a main course, which run the gamut from superior to "ehhhh...") Also on the same plaza is a Japanese fusion-y place called Sashi, which is more about the scene than the food and best avoided, especially since there's so much better Japanese bang-for-the-buck in nearby Gardena and Torrance.
The farmer's market is held just northwest of that plaza and has some nice options, but you should note that some of the vendors there also show up at the El Segundo, Redondo, and/or Torrance farmer's markets with notably lower prices...
They JUST opened up an outpost of one of my favorite middle eastern restaurants there... Open Sesame! :D
Another healthy option is Veggie Grill. They have a Kale Salad which is my favorite Kale anything...
If you like Mexican, I've been more than pleased with La Sirena Grill. Organic Meats, cooked well, you can get an excellent Mexican Cesar Salad as a side instead of rice and beans...

re: Dommy
I've only been to the northern outpost of La Sirena Grill once (many times to the original location on Mermaid St. in Laguna Bch.) but MY favorite salad for more than a couple of years is their Blackened Salmon Salad. Cold salad with 3 hot from the pan salmon fillets blackened to order. It's tossed with a citrus/cilantro dressing before the fish is placed on top.
Guess I'm going to have to try their "...excellent Mexican Cesar Salad..." sometime soon. Maybe with the salmon added!
Also their house made Horchata and Lemonade are pretty tasty.

re: Dommy
i had relatively high hopes for my first visit to La Sirena Grill (in El Segundo) a couple of weeks ago but i was pretty disappointed. the guac was nothing more than a bunch of avocado slices pressed on top of each other in a bowl - if there was any tomato, onion or cilantro hiding in there i couldn't find it. and i really wasn't a fan of the ceviche - it was more cucumber than anything, the rock shrimp were little pieces of rubber, and there was very little acid to perk up the flavor.
but on the bright side, my dining companion really enjoyed his margaritas!
re: goodhealthgourmet
Meep! Thanks for your 2cents. I admit, I've only been during lunch and have always ordered a taco plate. But good to be warned about the Ceviche in case I get tempted next time...
There are 2 additional restaurants worth checking out IMHO around MB. It's not super fancy food but good food, good prices....
1. California Fish Grill - Fresh fish, simply grilled, great prices, good portions
730-H Allied Way
El Segundo, California 90245
2. Petit Cafe Mediterranean Grill
630 N Sepulveda Blvd #3A
EL Segundo, CA 90245
An aside, I'm very excited to hear Open Sesame opened up a location closer to where I am, than their 2 locations in Long Beach.
re: DrBruin
Loooovvveee Petit Cafe... awesome gyros! Tons of fresh veggies! :D
re: DrBruin
i actually like the old cliche of blackened catfish at california fish grill, and the prices are way way way reasonable.
I actually like the Tin Roof Bistro in Manhattan Village, great lunch special for less than $10, good happy hour and just good food.
Same Owner if you want more of the Costal Vibe up the block from the Pier is Simmy's ( excellent Burgers and Crafted Beers )
Uncle Bills is a local institution for Breakfast ( eat mid week and lose the tourists )
Al Watan for a Pakistan complete meal ( area is a bit seedy if your on a trip but the grunge adds to the flavor) Flying solo, I always get the Lunch $7.99 or Dinner $8.99 special. Prices may be a buck off. Tandor Bread, Meat, various curries and a salad with a mound of rice that will feed two. Good spot ( my preference over Al Noor )
Fish Grill is sterile but good for what it is as well as other spots in the El Segundo Plaza ( cool Whole Foods too. ) The Starbucks there is nice to catch up on email ( if your traveling and enjoy the coffee )
In near by El Segundo the Second City Bistro on Monday Night's ( only ) try the free Wine Tasting and grab some apps.. Lots of fun people and nice time to be had. Same block there is a blast from the past Richmond Streer Bar and Grill for some very good Burgers too
This will all serve the Yummy option. I would go to Gardena for Asian, nothing to be found here. As to the Med. I do hear good things about Open Sesame as some hear have mentioned as well.
Enjoy your time, take a walk on the strand and have fun!!

I lived in Manhattan Beach for a year, long ago.
I am not a hamburger fan but I always loved the hamburger and the cantalope shake at Sloopy's. I still go back when I visit. Often, they don't have cantelope for the shake so I get their nearest substitute.
3416 Highland Ave, Manhattan Beach, CA 90266
re: pauliface
you have an interesting interpretation of "healthy"...but that cantaloupe shake does sound good ;)
re: goodhealthgourmet
I was focusing more on the 'delicious' and 'dining solo' parts.
Besides, it's healthy if you go for a run on the beach later in the day.
re: pauliface
i was just teasing. and while a burger & shake may not be diet food, at least Sloopy's sources high quality ingredients.

whitch senser did they replace?
Why did you not call the company that installed it,if they seen it was something that they did they could have fixed it for free.
Hi to you from down here in arkansas-------eh
I have a bosch 10.8 it fits good in my veto,but if it is 35 out side i have to but the battery in my pocket to warm them up.
most installers would just add more kw,if there is room in the breaker box to run more power to it.
look for a ruud unit they are always shorter.
yes,if you used 10kw you would only need 60 amps
Were do you live? You only have 2.5 years in the field and you make that kind of $$$$$. If you think you can do better go look around and you might see that you have it good were your at or who know...
Oh, my mistake I thought you paid for the service? It must be getting hot in there! If you want to save money you don't have to have it fixed, that will save on the utility bill.
If its so dang easy to fix it then do it your self oh ya it does make it a little easier when someone comes out and tell you whats wrong.
is this a joke,you mean to tell me you did not fix this your self, oh yeah you dont have the tools or the knowledge to do so. I still cant believe you are setting in your cool house criping about...
I have had one for about 3 years and still love it and i can find every thing in it with out looking.
Dick most move around a lot,cause i think he is in arkansas now.
The best time is now while it is still working so you can take you time choosing the contractor so you dont have to rush in to it,good luck.
Ditto,they will even heat the garage to
e-bay,i buy alot of tools there and so far no troubles.:)
you need both,but i would start with the apprenticeship so you could get the fill of the work to see if you would like, it not for everyone and you can earn as you learn
NO P-trapp or vent on condensate line.
Sounds like it just needs to be insulated so it does not conensate.
Sorry,some home owners think that way.If the building contracter is still using the hvac contractor after 15 years he probably knowes his work pretty well by know.
So what is it that you dont like about the unit or the install after 15 years.
What after 15 years of service you want them to come back and fix something for free?I think the warranty is over.
YYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS the parts and labor goes up every day and this will lock you in for 10 years with todays prices.
IF you up sized the airhandler and use the energy saving blower motor you could get there with out that high $ v/s.
King valves has teflon seals in them and if you get them to hot they will not seal and reff. will leak out the top of the valve.

I am Zsa-Zsa Hamsterbutt.
They're still making those?
Yeah, Dav Pilkey started releasing books again after a long hiatus starting with The Adventures of Ook and Gluk about two years ago—so far I think it's four books out? (Ook and Gluk, Super Diaper Baby 2, and the two new Captain Underpants books, The Terrifying Return Of Tippy Tinkletrousers and The Revolting Revenge Of The Radioactive Robo-Boxers.)
This is probably way more information than you ever wanted, but I just love Dav Pilkey so much.
I don't care if its for kids… I love these books. XD
I can't even describe how much this single page influenced me as a child. XD
(Well…every single page of the first five books did that, but still, this was a particular standout.)
Finally got my hands on this, and even after reading it already, I'm still disproportionately excited. :D
(Would it be too much to say "Dav Pilkey is the only person I'll take crap from"? …Because I usually hate bathroom humor, but I love it when he writes it because he's so clever?)
Also, I only just realized how ridiculous it is that I'm posting this after reblogging a photoset of The Toiletnator.

Endless Amounts of Charts
Hi ny name is Nico and I'm the creator of the webcomic Endless Origami and I'm also featured in I Love Charts: The Book, what strange coincidence. Jason thought it would be fun If I ran the blog for the day, while I'm tempted to make him regret that decision entirely I will try my best to post some fun stuff for you guys :)
I've always wondered, since our voices usually sound way better in our head, what Morgan Freeman's voice sounds like in his head. Is it possible that it sounds even cooler?
Here's a really interesting photo, an intern from Facebook wanted to examine the locality of friendships, pulling some data from Facebook he created this image. What's incredible is that lines don't represent coasts or rivers or political borders, but real human relationships. Each line is a friendship between two people, and with enough information these friendships give us a surprisingly accurate map of the world, minus Russia, apparently Facebook isn't too big over there.
You can read more about how it was made here. Also here is the High Res Version.
Kind of a cool way to look at things
I haven't even read the books and I get this.
If you're curious where you stand you can take the test here. Pretty interesting stuff.
This is Nico from Endless Origami signing off as Chartist in Residence for the day. Thanks for having me :)
I leave you with one last philosophical chart.

Found February 13, 2013 on Laker Nation:
Photo by Jed Jacobsohn | Getty Images It's not a secret that Kobe and Shaq had their differences when they played with each other. With the Lakers having so much success during that perioid one wouldn't believe that there could be any problems between players, right? Well, Shaq and Kobe had some of the biggest problems in sports, and it was definitely made public. However they seemingly have fixed that poor relationship they once had and now are good friends again, here's what Kobe said after seeing Shaq at last night's game (via ESPN.com): "It was good to see him," Bryant said after O'Neal sat in courtside seats for the Lakers' 91-85 win over the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday. "I had a chance to kind of catch up with him a little bit after the [Miami] Heat game here at Staples [on Jan. 17], and tonight we got a couple good laughs, a couple good inside jokes." I must say it's nice to hear Kobe and Shaq have repaired their relationship. They were THE DUO back in 1996-2004, and no one even came close to their PhotoCredit:Jed Jacobsohn/Getty Images caliber of play during that time in the NBA, and it's great to hear they are back to having a close bond. "Shaq and I have a really, really good relationship now," Says Kobe about his dominant partner in crime, Shaquille O'Neal. "I think we appreciate each other more now than ever," Bryant said. "I think the further you get away from the history that you had together, the more you put perspective on it on how dominant we were. It's interesting to think their relationship got better because of the passage of time and how they can look back at their championship runs and reminisce. More from what happened at the game including how Howard felt about Shaq being there can be read here. Kobe was recently caught saying he was going to "force Shaq" to present him at his retirement. With Shaq's retirement game coming up on April 2 against the Dallas Mavericks, one can only be relieved to hear the best duo in sports history have a great relationship again, and maybe, just maybe Kobe won't have to "force" Shaq to present him now at his future retirement. The post Kobe and Shaq Have Renewed Relationship appeared first on Laker Nation.

The Vulcan Mini by SOG Knives, has all of the strength and durability of its big brother, the Vulcan, in a smaller, easy to carry package. Featuring a lightweight glass reinforced nylon handle, super sharp VG-10 steel, and SOG's Arc-Lock opening and locking technology, the Vulcan Mini just may be the perfect everyday carry knife. SOG's Arc-Lock technology allow for lightning quick access to the blade, while securing the blade in place inside the frame while not in use. The SOG VL-12 also has a glass reinforced nylon handle, which allows for all of the strength and durability of other materials, but without all of the unnecessary weight. The VG-10 steel used on this SOG pocket knife has a high Vinadium content, which allow the blade to be sharp like a razor, but also to remain just as sharp for extended periods of time. The Arc-Lock and the reversible pocket clip make the Vulcan Mini the perfect everyday carry for righties or lefties, and will surely not weigh down its user.

In the midst of my sorrow, there's still hope for tomorrow,
In the midst of my pain, there's still healing to gain,
In the midst of my plan, God's designing a better one,
In the midst of my dissapointment, there's hope for new appointment
In the midst of my mistake, there's still more to apppreciate
In the midst of my embarrassment, God kept me through that moment
In the midst of my divorce, God's designing a new course
In the midst of my trial, I know, it's only for a while
In the midst of my accident, my recovery is soon evident,
In the midst of my existence, there's always hope for fulfillment
You remind me in your words, Thank you Lord!

Parenting on a Dare: My Decision to Accept Teen Motherhood
Me, Raise a Child?
My mother and I, both of us big talkers, would have long, ponderous discussions on why, exactly, teenage mothers often did badly. We didn't know many of them at all, and none intimately. We came up with theories, some more crackpot than others. We took our cues from novels, from people around us, from pop psychology. Of course, there was the money thing and the education thing. But we wanted to understand the psychology of teen parenting. One of us -- I'm not sure which one -- came up with the idea that teenage mothers were often emotionally stunted at the age when they first became pregnant, because, as we decided, they hadn't "gone through all their developmental stages."
It was an arrogant pronouncement, one that certainly revealed that neither one of us had much experience with any situations that fell outside the range of typical family life, the kind of life we had just agreed that I was going to have.
I took it to mean that, at 16, I should act like a 16-year-old; at 18, like an 18-year-old; at 25, like a 25-year-old, and so on. The danger, as we saw it, was that if I gave up too much of my own identity into being a mother at a young age, I would resent my child and that would be a bad thing.
In other words, being a good mother, for me, was entirely dependent on how good I was at taking care of myself. I not only gave myself license to be selfish, but following my selfish instincts also became a moral imperative.

Rheumatic Fever
Definition | Causes | Risk Factors | Symptoms | Diagnosis | Treatment | Prevention
Rheumatic fever is an inflammatory condition. It involves the connective tissue in the body. The most severe complication is rheumatic heart disease. This condition may permanently damage the heart valves. Valves control the flow of blood to and from the heart.
Diseased Heart Valve
Rheumatic fever is caused by group A Streptococcus pharyngitis, also known as strep throat. In this case, the body uses antibodies to fight the infection, but the antibodies also attack the heart.
Risk Factors
Factors that may increase your risk of rheumatic fever include:
- Having strep throat
- Prior case of rheumatic fever
- Age: 5 to 15 years old
Symptoms usually appear 2 to 4 weeks after a strep infection. They may include:
- Pain and swelling in large joints
- Fever
- Weakness
- Muscle aches
- Shortness of breath
- Chest pain
- Nausea and vomiting
- Hacking cough
- Circular rash
- Lumps under the skin
- Abnormal, sudden movements of arms and legs
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. This will include a careful exam of your heart.
Other tests may include:
Samples may be taken of your bodily fluids and tissues. This can be done with:
- Blood tests
- Throat culture
- You may need to have pictures taken of your heart. This can be done with:
- You may need to have your heart activity measured. This can be done with an electrocardiogram.
The goals of treatment are to:
- Kill the strep bacteria
- Treat the inflammation caused by the rheumatic fever
- Treat any cardiac problems
- Prevent future cases of rheumatic fever
Treatment may include:
To treat the strep infection:
- Penicillin or other antibiotics such as erythromycin and azithromycin
- May be given by mouth or injection
To help with joint pain and swelling:
- Aspirin or other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)—only if advised by your doctor
- Corticosteroids may be used if NSAIDs are not effective or if there is inflammation of the heart
It is important to treat strep throat with antibiotics right away. This will help prevent rheumatic fever. If you or your child has a sore throat and a fever that lasts more than 24 hours, contact your doctor.

East Carolina University kicks off its Black History Month celebration this week. It's called "Courage to Change".
East Carolina University's Cultural Center is gearing up for Black History Month with its "Courage To Change" lecture series.
Ledonia Wright Cultural Center Interim Director Melissa Haithcox-Dennis says this year's theme is inspired by Laura Leary-Elliot, ECU's first full time African-American student.
"It definitely came from the spirit of Ms Leary-Elliot. She had the courage to step on campus not only as the first African-American but an African-American. In that time it was just not heard, and she was determine," said Haithcox-Dennis.
The series is broken down into five different sessions, each featuring a different topic, like leadership, inventions, and the arts.
"We trying to go big and impressive in terms of this year. So that we can truly document the steps that people have taken. Our forefathers and foremothers that have taken so that we can talk about the changes that ECU internal, but also externally, been touching eastern North Carolina," said Haithcox-Dennis.
The university is also unveiling the second part of its 50th Anniversary of Desegregation exhibit. They gave 9 On Your Side a sneak peek at the university archives.
It is scheduled to go up later this week in Joyner Library.
"We need for people to know it know. We also need for future generations to see where we come from and see where we can go," said Haithcox-Dennis.
The first part of the installment, a historical timeline, is already hanging in the Mendenhall Student Center.
Starting Monday, you can view the new part of the desegregation exhibit at the Joyner Library.
All events are free and open to the public.

Japanese ship certifier to end Iran ties
Firms still trading with Iran in line of fire; Western sanctions take toll on Iran business

A Japanese ship classification society will close its Tehran office, becoming the latest firm to face pressure by a U.S. lobby group to end dealings with Iran as backers of Western sanctions pile pressure on the Islamic Republic.
Japan's ClassNK said it did not verify safety and environmental standards for Iranian ships, but was nevertheless pulling out of Iran.
"We at ClassNK have already voluntarily refrained from activities in Iran, and we have no vessels with Iranian flags, so we do not think that our current activities are running foul of the Iran sanctions," a senior ClassNK official told Reuters on Tuesday.
"But considering the environment that surrounds us as of late, there were talks on this inside the organisation, and we have officially decided to close our Tehran office."
The move follows a call last week by U.S. group United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) to cut ties with Iran.
A targeted campaign by UANI, which includes former U.S. ambassadors on its board and is funded by private donations, has led Germany's Germanischer Lloyd and France's Bureau Veritas to drop their classification cover for Iranian shipping firms.
Classification societies are hired by ship owners to regularly check that vessels, from their hull and propulsion systems to the machinery and appliances, meet international safety standards. Under international conventions, a classification is required for a ship to call at major ports.
While UANI acknowledged ClassNK did not provide formal certification services to Iranian vessels, it said the Japanese firm maintained an office in Tehran, which "lends important symbolic support to the regime".
UANI added that ClassNK also provided technical certificates for two Iranian firms that did business with Iranian shipping companies. The two Iranian firms provide distressed radio beacons, which transmit internationally recognised emergency codes and location data.
"By providing services to these companies, ClassNK is directly facilitating the operations of Iran's shipping sector, an action that enables the Iranian government to circumvent multilateral sanctions that have been imposed to prevent it from further developing its illegal nuclear weapons program," UANI said.
The ClassNK official did not refer to the two Iranian firms but said it would close its office as soon as possible.
"The Japanese government in particular requires a notice of two to three weeks (in advance), and we expect to do so in August," the official said.
"Because it was not actually engaging in activities, we expect no major damage to our business."
UANI, which is opposed to Iran's nuclear work, on Tuesday welcomed the move.
"It appears that ClassNK has made the correct decision. We applaud ClassNK for closing its Tehran office, and urge it to quickly and completely follow through on today's announcement to end its work in Iran," a UANI spokesman said.
Earlier this month, a South Korean ship classifier sidestepped calls by UANI to halt its verification work in Iran, saying it was concerned that vessel safety and marine environment protection could be compromised by political issues.

Teacher faces charges on roommate's drug deals
Manchester High School Central art teacher Lisa Tagalakis was in Manchester District Court, arraigned on charges of criminal liability to the sale of drugs and endangering the welfare of a child. (DAVID LANE/UNION LEADER)
Lisa Tagalakis, 42, is accused of renting a room to Robert Doane, 26, for $100 a week, with the agreement that Doane would be packaging and selling heroin from that location.
Court documents show she told police that she allowed Doane to do so because money was "tight." A listing of education department salaries for 2010 showed Tagalakis grossed just under $59,000 that year.
According to court documents, she also told police that it was convenient to have Doane there so she could leave her children with him while she and her boyfriend were away from the house.
Tagalakis pleaded innocent to a misdemeanor charge of endangering the welfare of a child. Tagalakis is accused of endangering her preschool children by letting Doane possess and deal heroin from the house while he was armed.
Court documents also show the children's room was across from the one shared by Tagalakis and White, where a gun identified as belonging to Doane was left, loaded with hollow point bullets, on top of a dresser.
Police reported finding a marijuana pipe on the dresser and another on the floor and two baggies of a suspected narcotic inside the top dresser drawer.
Police said Tagalakis told them she kept a Highpoint C-9 semi-automatic pistol on a shelf in her closet in the bedroom. She also told them she and White had recently sold two other handguns.
Tagalakis waived a reading of the charges Thursday in Circuit Court and bail was continued at $10,000 personal recognizance. A probable cause hearing on the felony charge was set for March 26, when there will also be a status hearing on the misdemeanor.
At the time of Tagalakis' arrest, school Superintendent Tom Brennan said: "She's been placed on paid administrative leave pending the outcome of the criminal investigation," He confirmed Thursday that Tagalakis remains on paid administrative leave.
Tagalakis' tenant, Doane, also appeared in Circuit Court Thursday, where he waived a probable cause hearing and charges were bound over to the Hillsborough County North Grand Jury.
Doane is charged with five felonies: possession of a narcotic drug, attempted sale of a narcotic drug, armed career criminal, receiving stolen property (gun) and convicted felon in possession of a dangerous weapon (gun).
Although Doane appeared calm at Thursday's court hearing, court documents show he became very upset Feb. 6 during a conversation with his friend, Tagalakis' boyfriend, 21-year-old Kristopher White.
The conversation, recorded with permission from the Attorney General's Office, has Doane asking White to "eat" the stolen gun charge for him.
The court documents show Doane was crying, telling White that if he were charged: "Dude, I'm looking at 10-plus (years) with all this." Doane also said: "I gotta get outta here. I gotta go somewhere. I'm ready to off myself."
But at Doane's hearing Thursday, his attorney, Carl Olson told Judge Gregory Michael: "He's not a risk of flight." Olson asked that bail be reduced from $75,000 cash/surety to $25,000 cash/surety.
Olson said Doane, who was on parole at the time of his arrest, faces a parole board hearing next month.
City prosecutor Jeremy Harmon argued for retention of the $75,000 cash/surety bail, ticking off Doane's record: 2004, criminal mischief and shoplifting; 2005, carrying/sale of a weapon; 2006, drug possession, burglary and falsifying physical evidence; 2007, two robbery charges, harassment; 2009, violation of probation/parole, 2010, willful concealment, felony theft, criminal mischief and felony theft/burglary.
Harmon said that Doane, born in 1986: "has amassed a criminal record with some very serious offenses."
Judge Gregory Michael, who originally set bail at $75,000 cash/surety, said he was going to maintain it. "I'm quite concerned with the defendant's prior behavior," said Michael.

Divestment Day 2014
May 3rd - opportunity to send a message
At a recent business breakfast organised by TGG Dr John Hewson spoke about the growing problem of the stranded assets most super funds and banks are risking, by continuing to invest in fossil fuels.
On May 3rd, 350.org is urging ordinary Australians to either shift their savings out of institutions investing in fossil fuels or at the very least pressuring their super funds to look again at where they are investing their members' assets. Read more about what you can do here.
More money for wetlands ....
State government gives further $100K .
A further grant of nearly $100,000 has been announced by the state government towards further development of the wetlands project through the implementation of stage 2 of the project.
The money will go towards weed eradication and native species planting around the edge of the wetlands and further afield in the surrounding land that is part of of the wetlands precinct.

Goulburn goes WiFi ....
TGG's latest project up and running.
Our latest project was launched on March 9th - a free WiFi service in the CBD.
At left is TGG Chairperson, Urs Walterlin and Goulburn Mayor Geoff Kettle (left) at the launch .
So that we can attract more people to the CBD, instead of visitors just stopping at the outskirts to visit McDonald's, we are encouraging tourists and residents to visit the CBD by providing them with a free WiFi service.
So now, both residents and visitors can stop in at one of the great cafes and shops in the centre of town, visit BelmorePark, and have access to their smartphone and computer connections, all for free.
The system works through a network of WiFi transmitters located around central Auburn St, Montague, Clifford, Goldsworthy streets, and Belmore park. As more transmitters are established, the network will expand to include the whole length of Auburn St.
Look for the sign on the windows of participating businesses.
Participating businesses (as at August 1st): Greengrocer Cafe, Century 21, Toyworld, 9000 Hair Centre, Something Special, Goulburn Club, Goulburn Water.
If you are a business in the CBD and want to join in this great initiative, email us.

Goulburn turns 150!
.... and what a party!
March 14th, 1863 saw Goulburn declared a city by Queen Victoria, the first declared city in inland Australia. It all revolved around the Anglican Cathedral being declared the seat of the first inland diocese. This graceful gothic style building was designed by Edmund Blacket and built in 1874. With large stained glass windows and a recently restored 3 manual pipe organ, it is the pride of the Canberra/Goulburn diocese - and the people of Goulburn.
And to celebrate this birthday, Goulburn has been throwing a big party, with street parades, exhibitions, plays, music, fireworks and general fun all round during the month of March.

Is Sneezing Girl Cured?
Doctors have identified the cause of 12-year-old Lauren Johnson's uncontrollable sneezing.
Lauren Johnson had been sneezing 12,000 times a day since October. Her parents consulted every specialist they could think of -- but no relief.
She was finally diagnosed with PANDAS: Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorder Associated with Streptococcus. And, for now, the sneezing has stopped. Thank God!

Incorporate cloud computing to form virtual classrooms and aid underprivileged students to access high quality education.
Mobile computing, social networking (Facebook, mxit, twitter, etc) take up 90% of our student's time. Can we make learning interesting by creating a mobile virtual classroom, accessible everywhere? Students want to learn but are discouraged by an outdated, boring medium. Can we make learning interesting by using more cost efficient cloud computing services instead?
Closing Statement from Emmanuel Mashandudze
My main interest is centered of the student teacher ratio especially in africa. A teacher has a class with an average of about 50 students. There are no tutors to attend to these kids thoroughly. Once a concept has been visited in a subject area, with such a student-teacher ratio, if student fails to master a concept there a very limited chance that it will be attended to. Poverty will not go away if these generations to come remain uneducated. Developing a cloud based virtual classrooms in reasonably affordable cloud computing resources in the cloud will enable deploying web based classes. Food is important yes but education is key to the future of the nations. Buillding the future education platform is like a creating a silo. Giving a man a fishing rod is better than giving them the food..

Oct 24 2011: Lets say we start on a small scale, a school for example, having students access a wide library resource of recorded resource of virtual classes would help even the underprivileged. Most schools do not have computers but municipalities in South Africa for example have a public library in each area with a few computers. If this was a computing resource implemented in a cloud computing scenario, we could only need one big computer and share through the KVM splitters for example.

Dynamic flanker Darren Waters has been rewarded for his impressive performances in Pontypridd colours over the past two seasons with a call-up to play regional rugby with the Gwent Dragons.
Waters will join up with the Newport-based region at the end of the current campaign on a two year contract.
The Beddau product was drafted into the Ponty squad in the summer of 2009 and made a significant impact as a marauding openside flanker, becoming a huge favourite with the Sardis Road fans.
In doing so he was was typical of a local player given his opportunity with Pontypridd and who made the most of his chances in the competitive environment of the Welsh Premiership.
Waters certainly put in a great shift for Pontypridd over the past two seasons and will depart with a sincere vote of thanks from all at the club, and with best wishes for a successful future at regional level.
Darren Waters made 53 appearances for Pontypridd between 2009 and 2011, scoring 11 tries.

U.S. health care spending grew at a historically slow rate in 2009, but the slowdown wasn't because of a healthier population or better coordination of care.
Most was because cash-strapped patients avoided medical care, according to a federal report.
In the recession, many who took pay cuts or lost jobs and health insurance ended up delaying medical care, according to an annual report on health expenditures released Wednesday by the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
Consumers spent less out of pocket, went to the doctor less often and spent less on physician visits, the report found.
Local medical providers are witnessing the effect firsthand.
"A lot of the elective visits people have for their health maintenance dropped off," said Dr. Mack Worthington of UT Family Practice, past president of the Tennessee Medical Association. "People are waiting much later to come in, even trying to manage at home with illness. ... People are trying to save."
Dampened by the Great Recession, health spending grew at a rate of 4 percent in 2009, the lowest annual rate of increase in 50 years.
But spending still is on the rise.
For the first time, health-care expenditures per person surpassed $8,000 in 2009, and total spending reached $2.5 trillion.
Although the National Bureau of Economic Research concluded that the recession officially ended in June 2009, the effects linger, local providers said.
Some people who lost jobs kept health insurance benefits through the federal COBRA program for a while, providers said, but many held off seeking care for as long as possible.
It wasn't until 2010 that local charity care program Project Access experienced a "dramatic" surge in demand, said Dr. Joe Cofer, program director for the surgical residency program at the University of Tennessee College of Medicine in Chattanooga and founder of Project Access in Chattanooga.
Project Access provides free specialty medical care to uninsured Hamilton County residents.
"A lot of people had health-care problems and put them off as long as they could, but a year or two later, their [condition] is to the point where they could no longer stand it and need help," he said.
The program screened 2,400 people who sought help in 2010, compared to 1,700 the year before, said Rae Bond, executive director of the program.
Hospitals admitted fewer patients largely because of patients delaying care, the report said.
Overall hospital spending grew by about 5.1 percent in 2009 and 2008. That's compared to growth rates of 7.2 percent a year earlier in the decade.
In Tennessee, admissions to acute-care hospitals were 805,000 in fiscal 2009, down from 827,000 the previous year, according to the Tennessee Hospital Association.
The decline hit Erlanger Health System, but admission rates began to stabilize in early 2010 along with the economy, said Jim Brexler, Erlanger president and CEO and chairman of the Tennessee Hospital Association.
Brexler said one trend that has held steady for years is the growing number of patients who can't pay for their care.
Tennessee hospitals absorbed $1.4 billion worth of uncompensated losses from charity care, bad debt and unreimbursed TennCare costs, said Craig Becker, president of the hospital association.
"That's just a huge number. That means the paying customer, the people who have commercial insurance, are paying for it," he said.
The CMS report found that in 2009, enrollment in private health plans declined by 3.2 percent as more people lost employer-sponsored health insurance.
The growth rate in the amount spent on private health insurance premiums also slowed significantly in 2009 to the slowest rate in nearly 50 years. Premium costs increased by 1.3 percent in 2009, compared to 3.5 percent in 2008, the report stated.
Health care reporter Emily Bregel has worked at the Chattanooga Times Free Press since July 2006. She previously covered banking and wrote for the Life section. Emily, a native of Baltimore, Md., earned a bachelor's degree in American Studies from Columbia University. She received a first-place award for feature writing from the East Tennessee Society of Professional Journalists' Golden Press Card Contest for a 2009 article about a boy with a congenital heart defect.

Blue Devils
Mercer Knocks Out Duke In Biggest Upset Of NCAA Tournament
It was the team many people didn't bank on winning and it killed a lot of brackets.
No. 18 Duke Beats Miami 67-46
Jabari Parker had 17 points and a season-high 15 rebounds on Wednesday night, and No. 18 Duke earned its first league road win of the season by beating Miami 67-46.
No. 20 Duke Routed 45-7 By No. 1 FSU For ACC Title
It's been a season of firsts for No. 20 Duke, and yet another one came in its first ACC championship game — when it shut out No. 1 Florida State. For a quarter.
Duke Has Tall Task Trying To Defend Benjamin
If the Duke Blue Devils have any hopes of slowing down the Florida State Seminoles offensive juggernaut; the Dukies have to find a way to solve the tall task of slowing down FSU receiver Kelvin Benjamin.
FSU 1 Win From BCS Title Game
With just one game left to play, the number one ranked Florida State Seminoles look to be in the best position to punch their ticket to Pasadena for a chance to play for the BCS National Championship game in January.
Blue Devils Have ACC Championship Game In Sight
The 2013 sports year has been filled with oddities like the Super Bowl blackout. But perhaps no one could have forecasted a year that could see the Miami Hurricanes beat the Duke Blue Devils for the ACC basketball championship and Duke beat Miami on the football field and be on the cusp of playing for the ACC football championship.
FSU Will Be Heavy Favorite For Rest Of Season
The Florida State Seminoles may as well be named the Steamrollers as they play out there schedule. The Noles put any distractions aside on Saturday and blew out Syracuse and that could be a trend over the Noles' final three games of the season.
Blue Devils & Canes Football Headed In Right Direction
When the final seconds of Duke's upset victory of the Miami Hurricanes ticked off the clock Saturday night, it showed how far Blue Devils head coach David Cutcliffe had brought his team and how far Al Golden still has to go to get the Canes back to the top.
Miami Notches 3rd Straight Loss
iami couldn't stop Duke's running game. And once the Blue Devils started scoring, the 24th-ranked Hurricanes' offense couldn't keep up.
Miami Versus Duke Game Preview
When Miami was off to its unbeaten start, Hurricanes coach Al Golden made it very clear that the process of turning the team back into a contender was far from over.
