Johnny won't take the T-Bird away
McPhillips Street fixture not closing anytime soon, 76-year-old owner says
Ever since Mary Kelekis announced that she was closing her venerable Main Street eatery at the end of January, patrons of the equally august Thunderbird Restaurant have been concerned that "their" place might be the next to go.
"Every day people are asking me, 'Are you going to retire, too?'" says John Ginakes, who opened the Thunderbird, located at 1970 McPhillips St., in 1961 with his brothers, Jimmy and Perry.
"Even my wife says, 'Aren't you tired?' But I tell her the same thing I tell everyone else. I'm not going anywhere because even after all this time, I don't feel like I've worked an hour in my life, I enjoy it so much.
"When people come up to me and say they've been eating here for 50 years I just shake my head and wonder where the time goes. To me, it feels like we just opened."
Ginakes grew up in the tiny Greek village of Niata. His older brother, Jimmy, moved to Winnipeg in 1950. John, the third of five children, joined him here four years later, after he turned 18. For a while, the siblings shared a one-room apartment on Vaughan Street. Their abode was blocks away from where John worked as a shoe-shine boy, and just around the corner from Jimmy's first foray in the food biz — the Manhattan Restaurant on Portage Avenue.
John and Jimmy opened up a place of their own — Denny's Quick Lunch — in 1960. The downtown diner did a brisk business but in order to cash in on the drive-in restaurant craze that was sweeping across North America, the pair (and younger brother Perry, who arrived in Winnipeg in 1959) moved their operation to an empty parcel of land on McPhillips Street. (The brothers decided to call their new locale the Thunderbird after one of their friends came across the name in a magazine, and convinced the Ginakes brothers to adopt the mythological creature as their own.) Ginakes says there was "absolutely nothing else" along that stretch of McPhillips at the time. But as people drove by the Thunderbird on their way out of town, they would spot dozens of parked cars there and pull in to see what the fuss was about.
"We had room for about 80 (cars) and things used to get so busy on Friday and Saturday nights that we had eight or nine girls on duty until three in the morning," Ginakes says, adding that carhop service was available year-round, even when the mercury dipped to -20.
Not everybody drove to the Thunderbird, mind you. In the mid-1960s, equestrians who trained at a nearby riding academy would sometimes show up on horseback. They would tether their mounts to trees, then head inside for a hamburger, hotdog or another of the house specialties — spaghetti, wieners and beans.
The Thunderbird ceased being a drive-in in 1979, the same year Jimmy and Perry left the business to start up the Pony Corral and Rib Shack franchises, respectively.
That was also the year Ginakes doubled the capacity inside the restaurant to 75. He briefly considered adding a cocktail lounge to the mix but was talked out of it by regulars who told him that "sort of thing" wouldn't fit in with the Thunderbird's homey upholstered booths and floral curtains.
Ginakes has a long list of former customers who have moved away but make a point of dropping by for a chat and a bite every time they return to Winnipeg. There is also a large contingent of Thunderbird loyalists across the continent who place takeout orders through their relatives, for jars of chili sauce and buckets of chicken.
"Parents tell me their kids won't let them through the front door when they come to visit if they haven't stopped here first," Ginakes says.
Some of the Thunderbird's most renowned customers — actress Nia Vardalos, former Jets captain Dale Hawerchuk and Blue Bomber greats like Chris Walby and the late Charlie (Choo-Choo) Shepard — have a special place of honour on the restaurant's wall of fame. It's too bad there aren't any photos of the Sisler High School student who, on a dare, once downed eight double-patty Master Burgers in a single sitting, before waddling back to class.
Ginakes, 76, works side-by-side with his wife, Gloria, six days a week (the restaurant is closed on Sundays). He splits his time evenly between the floor and the kitchen, and taps his head when he is asked where his recipes are stored for safekeeping.
Although Ginakes is usually a blur of activity during the day, refilling coffee cups or sizing people up for commemorative Thunderbird T-shirts, he always reserves a few moments for a private ritual.
"I have a little book in my office that I paste obituaries in of people who used to come here," Ginakes says. "Late in the evening when I'm here by myself, I take the book out, leaf through it slowly and talk to all the friends that I've lost. 'Where did you go?' I ask them. 'You were just here yesterday.'"

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
The community support for LHE is awesome. This includes the parents/families and local businesses (of which there are not many because La Honda is a small community). It's nearly impossible for a child to 'fall through the cracks' of a school of this size.
La Honda is a fantastic school. There are many enrichment programs funded by the PTA and the Ed Foundation that students would not have access to in a larger school. The teachers are phenomal- my experience thus far is through 3rd grade. There is a garden instructor (funded by the Ed Found.) for the incredible garden on the campus- she uses the garden to teach the students science with a hands on approach. You can't beat the small class sizes and personal attention the children get at LHE. My kids are learning so much more than just the state standards. They use the school computer lab regularly, plus have access to computers in the classrooms. They do art weekly with the Art in Action program. There are great assemblies. I don't know what the reviewer below is talking about with the principal- she is very involved with the PTA & LHEF.
La Honda teaches straight to the standards. The school is so strapped for cash that it has limited resources, so you just get the bare bones. Most smart students in La Honda go private, because the school is so weak. The pay scale for the teaching staff is at the bottom in San Mateo county, so teacher quality is mixed. My experience is with the grades up to and through third grade where the teaching staff is poor. The principal at the school is a terrible leader. She has alienated the PTA and many of the valuable parents at the school. There is a wonderful garden that has amazing potential, but is unrealized and not supported by the current teaching staff or the administration.
La Honda Elementary is unusual in the Bay Area because of its small size. All students know and interact with each other, regardless of age. The school has six teachers who know all the students and parents. The kids love their school. This school does not have some of the resources available to larger school, but the kids feel a sense of community that might be lacking in some larger schools.
A private school education in a public school. Small class sizes, gorgeous campus, exceptional parent participation, good teachers. You can really make a difference at this school. Extracurricular activities include AYSO soccer, drama program, baseball, 4H, Brownies, after-school program, etc.
This school is set in a small,supportive community with a student pop. under 100 students, grades K-5. Although it suffers from inadquite State & Federal funding it is strongly supported by the parents & community through personal participation, grants & donations. The backbone & driving force of this school is it's principal, Melba Rhodes. She is the most dedicated person you will ever find in a school system. It has all the benefits of a private school, it's small size, with teachers & principal giving individual attention to the children. Equally, the parents provide strong support. They are the backbone of all of the extracurricular activities & classroom support. This school was awarded the CA Distinguished School Award & for years scores higly on the Star tests.There is much more to say about this wonderful school but space does not allow. If you are considering sending your child here you won't be disappointed.
Vibrant country school with small classes and dedicated community.
As a 1989 graduate I am rating the school primarly based upon all years up till 1989. Melba Rhodes was a good leader, but the overall quality of this school lacked in comparison to many city elementary schools.

Have you ever seen children doing something naughty or annoying and thought, "I just wish someone would teach those brats a lesson." Well, while visiting the Dallas zoo, just such a group of kids got their comeuppance. As a gorilla sat quietly, minding his own business, they taunted him, calling the poor primate "ugly" and yelling other rude things at it. Those little obnoxious visitors thought they were safe behind that protective glass until the creature unleashes his fury. Check it out.
More from The Stir: Teacher Encourages Entire Class to 'Bully' 6-Year-Old & She's Paying the Price
It's funny to see the how the primate tries to ignore the mean kids, glancing at them as though he could care less. Then, as the shouts grow louder and one boy points his finger in its face, the 400-pound animal suddenly snaps. Those kids nearly jumped out of their skin. It's hilarious.
They better be counting their lucky stars that fortified glass was there. You just know that gorilla was smirking to himself as he then sauntered away from the still shivering kids. I bet they will think twice before they harass a big beast like that in the future. With any luck, it will teach them a lesson that goes way beyond how to treat confined zoo animals. No one deserves to be taunted or made fun of. Let's hope they remember that.
Do you think these kids got what they deserved?
Haha that's awesome.
Remember kids, gorillas can learn to understand english, and they don't like being made fun of.
Where the hell were the adults?????
And no, the kids didn't get what they deserved. Being startled by a gorilla is NOT going to teach these kids anything - they need someone to tell them how obnoxious they are and how they should act!
LOL awesome, those parents need to teach their kids how to be respectful to both humands and animals.
its obvious the parents are standing back filiming the kids acting like bratts! And think its funny.
Way to go gorilla! Yeah those kids were being brats and those parents should be teaching them not too, not laughing. But it was funny when he pounced. I would have had a good laugh. We had an experience at the Denver zoo once where the gorilla charged the glass. It was crazy, but I laughed so hard. Wish I would have gotten video. (I like being scared) lol, but I don't remember any kids tormenting him, but I was also busy trying to keep my four from climbing all over the place and getting in the way of the other visitors.
Ha! That is what they get!!

The AFMW also presented four resolutions to the General Assembly of MWIA.
Launch of Happy Healthy Women, Not Just Survivors
- Published: 09 October 2010
Nine months in the making and 3 years since the Government committed to appoint a National Council for Violence Against Women, the night of Tuesday 14th September saw the culmination of a great body of work with the launch of the "Happy Healthy Women, Not Just Survivors" report which advocates for the long term health needs of survivors of sexual trauma. We were honoured to have Libby Lloyd AM, Chair of the Violence Against Women Advisory Group officially launch the report and give a keynote address highlighting the surprising figure that one in three women are victims of sexual violence and that sexual violence has far-reaching effects on victims. The health burden is to individuals, the community and the economy, and there is nothing in the national agenda to address the real, longterm needs of these women.

Happy, Healthy Women, Not Just Survivors
- Published: 11 September 2010
Happy, Healthy Women, Not Just Survivors is a joint advocacy initiative between the Australian Women's Coalition (AWC), the Australian Federation of Medical Women (AFMW) and the Victorian Medical Women's Society (VMWS).
Sexual violence is a common experience for women in Australia, with 1 in 3 reporting sexual violence over their lifetimes and 1 in 10 reporting penetrative or attempted penetrative sexual abuse. Significant health consequences result over a lifetime, and with domestic violence, sexual violence is responsible for the greatest burden of disease for women aged 18-45 years. In spite of this, women who experience sexual violence are reluctant to access healthcare services. There is a critical dissonance between survivors' needs and service provision. A consultation report that advocates a long-term model of care for survivors of sexual violence has now been released and will soon be launched in Victoria and New South Wales.
New South Wales Launch: 7pm Friday 24 September 2010
Venue: AMA House, Level 1, Conference Centre, 69 Christie Street, St Leonards
Sydney keynote speakers: Dr Gabrielle Casper (President AWC), A/Prof Jan Coles (Monash), Dr Bruce Morton (AMA)

"That dip is good enough to eat with a SPOON!"
Ever said that about something into which you're only supposed to dip carrots or chips?
This salsa soup recipe is a way to cut out the middleman and have an easy starter for Mexican night. While you're finishing up the homemade tortillas, or better yet, while one of the spicy casseroles from Better Than a Box is baking, the family can sit down and have some nourishing homemade stock and vegetables before digging into the main course.
The salsa soup is a very simple, meatless soup meant to be served as a "starter soup," a pretty neat technique for getting healthy foods in first. Particularly if you have young children who might not be huge fans of soup (or vegetables, or both), serve the soup first with a few toppings and no chips (or very few).
You'll be amazed at how the combination of genuine healthy hunger and pureed vegetables that they can't see to identify or pick out works to get even picky eaters to the bottom of the bowl. (Important note: This strategy will not work if you allow your kids to eat within an hour of dinner. Say, "The kitchen is closed," starting by 4:00 or 4:30.)
This recipe is the child of my canned salsa recipe and Kimi Harris's Mexican Tortilla Soup from the book Ladled (found on Amazon), from which many of my soup recipes are inspired.
This post is sponsored by Real Salt, because any soup – but especially simple purees – are only as good as the perfection of the amount of salt in the stock. Real Salt is an American-mined, unrefined sea salt that is our family's favorite (we buy it by the 10-pound bucket). Real Salt has over 60 trace minerals (white table salt has two, whoop-de-doo), has been hidden from modern pollution for centuries (it's from an underground ancient sea in Utah), and turns on its head the notion that salt is bad for you. Click HERE for a quick video explaining why unrefined salt is actually necessary for good health.
Recipe: Salsa "Starter" Soup
|Salsa Soup (a Starter Soup)
- 1-2 Tbs. fat of your choice
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 3-4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp. cumin
- 1 tsp. Mexican oregano
- 1 tsp. salt
- dash cayenne
- 4 c. homemade chicken stock
- 2 c. diced tomatoes (1 can with juice)
- 1/4 c. uncooked white rice or 2-4 c. cooked brown rice (optional)
Optional additions:
- green pepper
- spicy peppers
- greens: kale, spinach, chard, etc.
- cubed avocado
- sour cream
- squeeze of lime
- fresh cilantro
- shredded cheddar or Mexican cheese
- diced red onion
- Melt fat (lard, butter, ghee, refined coconut oil) over medium heat. Saute the peppers and onions for 5-10 minutes until softened. Add garlic, cumin, oregano, salt and cayenne and stir for 1-2 minutes. Pour in stock and tomatoes and bring to a boil.
- If you are adding the rice, stir it into the boiling broth, reduce heat to a simmer and cook at least 15 minutes until the rice is tender. For grain-free OR to serve over already-cooked rice, just cook for 5 minutes to let the flavors blend together.
- Turn off the heat and blend partially (or completely) with an immersion blender.
To serve:
- If using cooked rice, put a large spoonful of warm rice in each bowl and ladle the soup overtop.
- Serve with cheese, chopped fresh cilantro and/or some of the other ideas below.
* If you have too many tomatoes to can, freeze or eat at the end of the season (or the middle), this is a great way to use a bunch of them.
* If the soup seems flat, add salt. Homemade stock often needs plenty of salt to magnify the flavors.
* Don't have Mexican oregano? You should buy some and use it for refried beans too (try Mountain Rose Herbs), but in the meantime, regular oregano is just fine.
* Don't have an immersion blender? You should buy one; they have so many handy, time-saving uses, but in the meantime, you can eat the soup without blending or wait for it to cool slightly, then carefully pour into a regular blender and puree gently. You may need to work in two batches depending on the size of your blender.
* Feel free to use a good vegetable broth instead of chicken stock if you need a totally meatless dish. If you're making your own stock, you might want to include plenty of garlic and maybe even some peppers.
* It's the perfect opportunity to use the "bottom of the bag" chips (tortilla chips). You can even save the crumbles in the freezer until you have a bunch and serve with this soup.
As with any simple soup, it's really all about the toppings. You can keep it really basic with nothing on top and dip quesadillas or chips into it, or you can add multiple goodies on top, a squeeze of lime or some cheese and make it something really special.
Certainly one could also add chicken or taco meat and make it a whole meal, or pair with a taco salad for a warming winter upgrade. Yum!
Don't forget to check out the Real Salt giveaway this week, running through Thursday night. Five winners will receive a gift box package of the good stuff, including garlic salt and seasoning salt, all organic and unrefined.
If you like the idea of "vegetables first" on Mexican night, be sure to pin this recipe for later – and let me know if you try it out!

Great house for a great price.
This was my first time renting a home, and I was very pleased with my experience. The owners are very kind and had great communication, before and during my stay. The house exceeded my expectations, it was very spacious and well-maintained. We were a party of four and the house accompanied all of us quite comfortably. My friends really enjoyed the location, as it was a 2 minute walk away from an adorable puppy store. There were a bunch of places to eat nearby. The community pool was basically ours since we were the only ones using it. Overall, this is a great house for an amazing price. Would definitely rent again.
Lovely townhome in perfect location
This townhouse is situated a 5 min walk to the perfect Clearwater beach and backs directly onto the waterway. I could have happily sat watching the waterway all week and not gone anywhere, but the beach lured us out on several occasions. We saw a dolphin on the waterway which was a real thrill and some beautiful big waterbirds, plus the odd boat going by. We found the weather so hot that we ventured out morning and evening - the sea is amazing to swim, so warm, with a bit of chop to it for excitement - and lovely to be in if you get rain! We cooked in most days as the kitchen was just like home. The master bedroom suite is amazing, really spacious and luxurious; with the other two bedrooms fine for size. Table tennis table in the garage was good for my older sons and we all enjoyed the outdoor pool which we practically had to ourselves every day and was spotlessly clean. We ventured to Honeymoon Island to gather shells one day which I'd recommend as a slightly different beach to Clearwater to see. I'd recommend as a great place to stay.
EXCELLENT! As advertised
This is a very well maintained and organized townhouse. Everything is as advertised. Location is great, roof top terrace with grill and hot tub offered spectacular view of the Gulf of Mexico and the Intra-Coastal Water Ways. Owner was very easy to deal with and responded to the only inquiry that came up (minor issue with gas grill that he resolved). Unit is clean and accommodations are excellent. Much to do close by, plenty of eateries and shops as well. Could easily park the car the entire stay if you desired. I would absolutely go back again and would recommend it to anyone looking.

Health & Parenting
Is Your Child Spoiled Rotten?
Causes of Spoiling
Many experts agree that most moms and dads love their children, and simply want the best for them. Their efforts, however, can sometimes have the opposite effect if they're not mindful.
"There are parents who don't want their kids to experience hardship or emotional stress of any kind," says Schmitt. "In the process, they teach the kid to have a personality that gets into all kinds of emotional stresses, because their behavior is unacceptable."
Pressures from the outside world can also make it tough for parents to exert enough discipline, says Kindlon. With a greater consumer culture than ever before, more demanding academic and extracurricular requirements for children, longer work schedules for parents, less family time, and a generally more lenient society, many mothers and fathers feel more inclined to go easy on their kids.
Plus, some moms and dads may use their kids as "Prozac," says Kindlon. "In past generations, the parents didn't care whether their kids liked them or not," he explains. "Now, given there are other things in our lives that aren't that satisfying, having good relationships with our kids is something that makes us feel good."
Then there are the persons who simply do not know how to be firm with their young. "There are people who cannot tolerate anger from another person, including their child," says Constance Katz, PhD, a psychotherapist based in New York City.
There are, indeed, many obstacles to the proper disciplining of kids. The bottom line is, however, that children need parents to raise them to be responsible and social adults.
What Kids Need
"Kids need to know that there are firm limits out there, because it's not very secure to know that the limits change everyday," says Thompson. One way to teach children boundaries, he says, is to actually give them choices, beginning at 18 months old -- the age when people are capable of making simple decisions about right and wrong.
Choices may involve things like "Do you want orange juice or tomato juice?" or "Do you want to wear this outfit or that one?"
It is important to give kids options that you, as a parent, can live with. "You don't come home and say, 'Okay, you three kids, what do you want for dinner?' You might have three short orders,'" says Thompson.
As the children grow older, the list of options obviously becomes more complicated. But, if kids have practice with making simple decisions, they can be more trusted to make more difficult choices later in life, adds Thompson. "If you take the time [to present options to kids] in the first 11 years of life, it will pay off in dividends in the teen years. The child doesn't have to be a rebellious teenager."

An Educational Initiative on non-pharmacological treatment and correction of Anxiety Dis-orders.
117.M people in America suffer with Anxiety disorder, and currently the medical & mental health establishment believes only medications, many of them addictive is the cure! It is NOT, they are merely be a bridge to amend, to calm the horrid symptoms, but the 'cure' is seeking a qualified clinical counseling hypnotherapist to deal and clear the root/core issue at the subconscious levels of mind activity, where habituation arises, and literally straighten the 'kink', permanently.
Not all people have sustained anxiety, most people will have in the least an episode in their life time, then there are others in which Anxiety Disorder is situational, such as having to give a presentation or report to your colleagues, Public speaking anxiety is the number one leading situational anxiety dealt with, so it is only upon those circumstances it rears it's ugly head. So, 117m American's dealing and/or suffering encompasses all of the manifestations of anxiety disorders from Situational, General (being uncomfortable in your own skin) OCD, PTS &D, Panic attacks, Agoraphobia, Eating disorders (body dysmorphia) Phobias, some Depressive disorders, Addictions (often self regulating/medicating)... to name the majority of underlying anxiety and anxiety dis-orders.
There are currently 27 drugs in the market and 600 being designed by drug manufactures...and these but deal with the SYMPTOMS, not the underlying core/root issues. There are reliable, effective, non drug treatment to deal, clear and relieve Anxiety Disorder. Is this what we want, 117.M people medicated? Not says I, with a qualified clinical hypnotherapist the disorder can be Eradicated, Corrected, Relieved... really, I do it every day in my practice. Every Day.
It is time to educate Doctors, Healthcare Practitioners, all level of mental/ healthcare providers on Anxiety/Panic disorders, as well as the public.

Jan 14 2013: Lawren, as a clinical counseling hypnotherapist, I have specialized in anxiety disorders for over 20 years and have helped people correct the dis-order. I hyphenate "disorder" because it is an issue of incorrect thinking that initiate the fight/flight response. By using cognitive therapy techniques and hypnotherapy it effectively corrects it.
I do have an agenda, the eradication of anxiety and panic attacks. To educate people such as yourself who may have undergone a slew of treatments from medicines to perhaps psychotherapy with little results. Lawren, if you have a heart condition, you will not seek out a podiatrist, you would seek the consult and expertise of a cardiologist. Same situation here. With anxiety issues, you would seek out a specialist in this area, such as myself.
I suggest you educate yourself on CBT & hypnotherapy, and reclaim your life back. The chemical imbalance you speak of is the adrenaline release and subsequent fear of the symptoms in an ugly cycle that occurs is the true imbalance. With proper consult training and correct at the subconscious level one can not only receive relief, but complete control.
The hypnosis attribute goes into the subconscious where the core or root issue exists. All of your habitual behavior is at the subconscious level, such as driving. When you get into your vehicle, you d not have to remember how to drive, you simply stick the key into the ignition and go about your way. The subconscious is that portion of the mind that allows us to smoothly operate in the world. When one has repeated anxiety attacks, in becomes for intents and purposes a habitual response of fear.
I hope this broadens your understanding and the threshold of gaining your life back now that you know what specific approach to correct your anxiety. Best regards, Kate

Exclusive: Discovery set to launch 'Africa'
Creators of 'Life' to provide revealing look at the continent you thought you knew
If you liked "Life," the ground-breaking and breathtaking natural history series from Discovery and BBC, you'll love "Africa" when it launches next month.
That's right: The award-winning documentary team behind "Life" has turned its attention to the African continent. And four years of creative collaboration have resulted in a seven-part series that brings to life Africa as you're not accustomed to viewing, including never-before-filmed species, animal behaviors and secret, natural wonders of the world. "Africa" premieres Tuesday, Jan. 8, at 10 p.m. ET/PT on Discovery.
Bing: More about Discovery's 'Life' | Africa | Discovery network | BBC
Discovery/BBC has left no corner of the continent uncoverd, traveling to a secret location in southwest Africa to witness possibly one of the last great rhinoceros gatherings on the planet. The crew tracked a teenage chimp in the Congo and met some gutsy lizards hunting for flies on the backs of sleeping lions in the Serengeti -- a behavior never before captured on film. And get ready for startlingly new look at giraffes, as the show filmed two rival males in Namibia delivering sledgehammer-like blows.
As was the case with "Life," the Discovery/BBC production team relied on technological innovation to capture fresh images and sounds, for example developing a camera system operated using the light of the stars. To capture on film these and other animal behaviors, the team spent 1,598 days on location across 79 separate expeditions in 27 countries. They utilized 21 different types of cameras to shoot more than 2,000 hours of footage. Of the 553 cameras deployed throughout the series, only eight were lost or damaged beyond repair. That is to say, "Africa" will be plenty to look at -- and listen to.
Also: Canceled and renewed TV shows | Memorable TV moments of 2012
The "Africa" team's extreme efforts are chronicled in the episode "Making of Africa." Other episodes of the series uncover bizarre, brutal and newly discovered animal behaviors in the deserts of the Kalahari, the dense forests and snow-capped peaks of the Savannah, the Congo rainforest, the ever-changing climate of the Cape and the massive and parched Sahara desert. The series' seventh episode, hosted on camera by British naturalist David Attenborough, will look at how Africa is changing faster than at any time in history: The greatest wildlife continent is at a tipping point where animals of the next generation seem destined to face a set of challenges very different from the ones met by their ancestors -- and the animals themselves must adapt to the new landscape and changing relationship with humans.
"Africa" premieres Tuesday, Jan. 8, at 10 p.m. ET/PT on Discovery.

If you haven't heard what Fran Tarkenton had to say regarding Mark Richt last Friday on 680 The Fan, you probably should. The most famous former Georgia Bulldog (non-Herschel division) eviscerated the Bulldogs' coach and strongly suggested the program needs a new leader.
Francis T. began boldly — "What has happened over the last week with Georgia has been the most disturbing time I have seen in a long time; you know, people don't want to look at reality" — and didn't pause for breath. (A partial transcript is available at SportsRadioInterviews.com.)
Richt's all-is-well press briefing of Jan. 4 apparently set Tarkenton's teeth to gnashing. Concerning the announcement that Richt would re-immerse himself in the finer points of football, Tarkenton said this:
"Holy cow! Yesterday, where Mark Richt says, 'I have been freed from administrative duties to spend more time on football.' Then I quote him, he said, 'The moves give [me] more time to study the game of football and be an

Collagen is our body's key structural protein, which is involved in creating strong and healthy hair, nails, bone, muscle and tendons. It also keeps our skin smooth and muscle lean for weight management. During our youth collagen helps prevent wrinkles from forming, gives skin elasticity, helps create strong and thicker hair. In our early 20's collage diminishes by about 1% per year. By the age of 30, the signs of collagen reduction have started to become visible. Decreased amounts in bones and joints begin to be felt. The reduction cycle will not reverse by itself. Replenishment becomes a necessity to slow the decline and address the issue. Youtheory's advanced formula contains Types 1,2 & 3 to help restore your hair, skin, nails, and joints.

Basically, to qualify the credit card as being Islamic, it must adhere to one basic requirement, the card must be completely free from any riba or gharar.
Riba is usually translated as "interest" which means an extra amount charged in transactions dealing with silver, gold or money while gharar means uncertainty or ambiguity.
This means that Islamic credit cards can't be charged with any compounding interest from clients' outstanding balance and management fees. Also the profit margin is fixed for the whole tenure of contract, which is basically span up to 3 years.
Tawarruq Contract for Islamic Credit Cards
Tawarruq means the purchase of commodity on differed payment basis by way of either direct sales or cost plus sales. The commodity is then sold for cash to a party other than the original seller. The commodity usually being used for this purpose in Malaysia is crude palm oil (CPO).
Discussion among the majority of classical Muslim scholars on tawarruq was done simultaneously with bai' al-'inah. In fact, they do not differentiate the discussion on tawarruq and bai' 'inah; except the scholars of Hanbalis who have distinguished it.
Generally, tawarruq and bai' 'inah are similar in terms of its objective to obtain cash through the selling and buying transactions, but they are different in two aspects. Firstly, bai' 'inah does not involve third party as purchaser of the object of sale (asset/commodity), while tawarruq involves third party. Secondly, the sales object in bai' 'inah is returned back to the original owner, whereas in tawarruq, there is no such condition.
Banks such as Bank Rakyat and Bank Islam are currently using this contract for their Islamic credit card.
Other terms used in Syariah Banking Concept
Al-Wadiah (savings with trust/guarantee)
Al-Wadiah refers to agreement where customers deposit money in the Bank, and the Bank becomes wholly responsible and liable for its safekeeping.

Profits gained will be divided and distributed accordingly, based on margins agreed upon earlier.
Bai-Bithaman Ajil (deferred payment sale)
Bai-Bithaman Ajil refers to the sale of goods on a deferred payment basis at a price which includes a profit margin agreed by both parties.
Bai-Al'Inah (immediate cash)
Bai-Al'Inah refers to the selling of an asset by the Bank to the customer through deffered payments. At a later date, the Bank will repurchase the asset and pay the customer in cash terms.
Al-Musyarakah (joint venture)
Al-Musyarakah refers to a partnership or joint venture for a specific business purposes with a profit motive, whereby the distribution of profits/losses will be apportioned according to the capital contributed.
Qardhul Hassan (benevolent loan)
Qardhul Hassan refers to an interest-free loan. The borrower is only required to repay the principal amount borrowed, but he may pay an additional amount at his absolute discretion, as a token of appreciation.
Al-Ijarah Thumma Al-Bai' (hire and purchase)
Refers to two contracts undertaken separately and subsequent as follows:
- Al-Ijarah contract (hire)
- Al-Bai' contract (purchase)
Under the first contract, the customer hire the goods from the Bank at an agreed rental amount over a specified period. Upon expiry of the hiring period, the customer enters into a second contract to purchase the goods from the Bank at an agreed price.

It is the one and only chance you have to make a lasting, good first impression. You want your date to remember how you first looked when he fell in love with you. Necessary Secrets is here to help your appearance look the best for your first date by providing you a few tips for choosing the right lingerie for your first date. Fit your clothes and lingerie in a sexy and respectable way. Read now for invaluable lingerie tips.
Lingerie for the first date can be very tricky if you don't know where to start. You don't want your attire to look too well planned but you want to look put together.
It is no secret that men prefer women that look sexy but don't try too hard to be sexy. Most women when undecided on undergarments will wear black lingerie to be safe with their lingerie selection. Some men naturally love black lingerie while others will think of sex right away.
You do not want your date to see you as only a sex object. You will want him to respect both your mind and body. If your date gets a glimpse of you in black lingerie, it may give the impression you planned for him to see you in it. Instead, you can surprise him with matching lingerie.
Matching lingerie will keep you from looking like a train wreck without appearing as if you put plenty of thought into wearing it. Studies have shown must men prefer lingerie that is simplistic and feminine.
Try adding a little color, some design patterns or a cute little bow to your lingerie. These little touches of creativity are huge turn ons for men.
If he is bringing you to a BBQ, try wearing casual, simple, pretty lingerie. Some great casual lingerie to wear on such a date is a pair of boy shorts and a matching bra. Some matching sets that go great for casual dates are stripes, polka dots, butterflies and vibrant colors.
If he is bring you on a more traditional date such as a dinner and a movie, then you should glam up your lingerie. Some lingerie could be lace or satin attire. Wear colors of silver, burgundy, and navy blue to add elegance to intimate apparel. This will make you look and feel like a sexy woman under your clothes. Make him know it is not easy to see your lingerie…it's a privilege that's earned.
But more importantly make sure you are comfortable in your lingerie. Try wearing it a bit prior to your date. Sit in it. Stand in it. Avoid panties that shift too often and bras that show too much of your goods when you are bent over.

Jonathan Cooper – The interior of the Cowboys line is not very good. They really need it to get better at protect Tony Romo and openning up holes for DeMarco Murray. Cooper is an athletic guard with outstanding and very fluid footwork. He also shows outstanding balance and is very good at getting out and blocking on the move. He is just as effective moving and blocking left or right. Shows some nastiness out on the field, not afraid to get physical. Also has the ability to slide over and play center if that is where the Cowboys think they need the most help. He isn't as strong as a Chance Warmack and can get pushed back by the bigger, stronger DTs.
D.J. Fluker – Fluker is a player than can either take over for Doug Free, who has been really bad since signing his big contract, at RT or slide inside and play guard. With Flukers size, he is a right tackle or guard prospect only. Fluker is an extremely powerful run blocker. Has long arms and shockingly little fat on a very impressive frame. Has extremely powerful hands, showing the ability to latch onto a defender and push him where he wants him to be. Is an extremely passionate player and was said to be the emotional leader for the Crimson Tide. He hasn't demonstrated the agility or ability to stop top level speed rushers.
Johnathan Hankins – Jay Ratliff looks like he will be back next year, but hasn't played very well since he got his big contract. With the Cowboys switching to the 4-3 next year they will need help at the defensive tackle position. Hankins has excellent feet and quickness for a man his size. Hankins is extremely good against the run, but also shows the ability to knife through the line and disrupt in the passing game. Is very fluid and has good range for a player his size, dropping into coverage at times at Ohio St. Does tend to rely too much on upper body strength. Will wear down over the course of a game, better if he doesn't play every down.

I just watched a video about breastfeeding that channingsmom posted in the CafeMom Newcomers Club. It's about people's reactions to watching another video called "Breastfeeding from birth until two years and beyond." If you have time to watch it, here it is. Either way, keep reading.
I've also been hearing a lot of talk lately about women breastfeeding their children until they are toddlers—or even beyond.
Kelly Rutherford, one of the stars of Gossip Girl, just told Babyrazzi that she's still breastfeeding her two-year-old son Hermes. "It's an amazing bond with your child, she said. "Some cultures do it up to five years normally. I'll just do it as long as it feels right for my son."
Over in the Toddler Buzz, Cafe Cynthia has an interview with jellyphish, the owner of the Breastfeeding Toddlers/Preschoolers Group, about extended or full-term breastfeeding (feeding your baby until the age of two or beyond). She talks about the benefits of breastfeeding toddlers—and the biting! Check out what she has to say.
How long do you plan to breastfeed your baby?
My first self weaned ( I blieve because I was still in high school full time) at 14 months (he was EBF) My DS2 is 2 months old, and going strong. I will allow him to self wean as well. Even if he is 3 or 4.
I'm hoping he'll go for between 2 and 3 years. 4 years is when I'll start to slowly wean him if he hasn't done it himself. I want at least a year to myself before we have the next one (I want the next baby 5 years from now, when I get my Mirena taken out).
I want to EBF for at least a year. If my little one wants to stop before that, I like the idea of continuing to pump and at least still feeding him breastmilk. (Plus, I paid so much for the breast pump, I'd like to get all the use I can out of it!) If he wants to go beyond a year, or two, or three, I'm fine with that. I am able to breastfeed, and for me, once I got past the initial two weeks, it's so much easier than bottles. When I do have to prepare bottles of pumped milk (so that my hubby or other caretaker can feed him while I'm at work a few hours a day), I tend to feel a little stressed. Washing, cleaning up, whether he'll like it or not, whether it's the right temp when warmed up. I love being able to take my LO anywhere and not have to worry about what I'll do when he gets hungry. I'm glad I am able to breastfeed.
Sidenote: My mom tried to breastfeed me, but I had a week sphincter muscle in my throat, making it so that I threw up basically anything I ate for the first year or so of life. In order to get enough to eat (since I kept throwing everything back up) she ended up having to formula feed me as well. I'm healthy, happy, and I also think my mom is the best. Every woman's situation is different. I'm glad that was included in the video.

One Level Of Bioshock Infinite Has 3-4 Times The Writing In Bioshock 1
Posted on Wednesday, March 21 @ 11:06:35 Eastern by Daniel Bischoff
That's the word from Irrational Games lead Ken Levine about the shooter-to-watch this holiday season. Speaking with Eurogamer, Levine detailed how the relationship between the two main characters adds to that level of dialog:
As a critic, Bioshock Infinite is one of those games I actually dread. If the original Bioshock games are any indication, I know this one will be incredibly dense, with a high probability for delay. Sometimes looking at things like this through a critical eye can actually damage the gameplay experience.
It can be too easy to stare straight into the face of all that writing and narative and judge the game on those merits alone. Bioshock Infinite will land on store shelves for Xbox 360, PS3, and PC October 16th in North American and October 19th in the rest of the world.

Sorry, but I have to disagree. There are celebs out there who actually date who they want, when they want. I'm sure it's a lot less than 90%. I mean, who the hell would want a life like that.

And my mom shoots it. Ok, so we're not that average…"
No, Eliza Thornberry, you're not that average. You can talk to animals, which is really cool but totally secret. And you know what else? Life will never be the same. But let me ask you something. Your dad's nature show. What's the deal with it?
You see, out of all the memories I have of The Wild Thornberries, I can't recall ever hearing your father talking numbers. I work in TV, and I can tell you everyone talks numbers. How were the viewership ratings of Nigel's show? Was it popular? Was it more like Steve Zissou, where it was, at one time, popular but interest had sort of been waning for years? Is Nigel an international zoologist sensation or just some guy with an orange mustache and camera?
What did his episode order look like? It seemed like every episode you guys were filming another show in some new exotic location looking for some new creature to feature. Clearly it must have been a tall order, with multiple seasons in place, otherwise you wouldn't have been on the road all of 91 episodes.
Also, if your parents were so busy filming this nature show, who was teaching you kids in the meantime? Certainly both you and your sister, Debbie, would be required by law to have some sort of on-set education. Darwin always seemed smart with his dapper striped tanktop and his British accent, but… he's a monkey. I can't imagine he'd make a good teacher unless he was teaching you how to be a monkey.
And, wait… what even was the name of your father's show? I can't recall. And I would remember. I'm good at remembering that kind of stuff. Was the name of the show "The Wild Thorberry's?" No… I don't think so.
Eliza, I'm not accusing anyone here but…
…was it all a lie? Was the whole show some elaborate lie your psychopathic parents wove to keep you kids out of conventional civilization? While you guys ran from jungle to jungle, was there something or someone you were running from? WAS THERE EVEN TAPE IN YOUR MOM'S CAMERA!!!?
This has been keeping me up at night, Eliza. Things just don't add up to me.
Here's how I think it is, and I pray this is just my imagination running wild (no pun intended): you live in the jungle with your two schizophrenic parents who think they're the stars of some strange animal-themed television show with an unlimited episode order. They're so crazy they let you keep a wild monkey in a tanktop and a feral jungle boy as pets. You constantly put yourself into life-threatening situations because you've convinced yourself you can talk to animals to cope with the pressures of your psycho parents and their dangerous eccentricities.
Please, Eliza, run. Run for your life. You're in danger! Take the Rugrats with you! I fell asleep before the ending of Rugrats Go Wild. For all I know they could still be trapped on that island with you guys.
Eliza Thornberry, wherever you may be, please seek help.
Matt Bennett, on behalf of the Nickelodeon family.
Also, do you realize your father is Tim Curry?

North Korea May Have Tested Rocket Engines
July 11, 2013 by UPI - United Press International, Inc.
WASHINGTON, (UPI) — Researchers at Johns Hopkins University said there are signs North Korea tested a rocket that could be part of a long-range missile system.
Blog 38 North, edited by a North Korea research team at the Maryland university, said its assessment of satellite imagery of a launch station indicated a rocket engine was tested there in late March or early April. North Korea conducted two long-range rocket launches from the same facility last year.
North Korean rocket programs put the western United States coast within reach. Rocket launches in 2006, 2009 and 2013 coincided with nuclear tests in North Korea.
Johns Hopkins researchers said it's unclear how many or what type of engines were tested at the Sohae Satellite Launching Station. They said it could indicate a test of a possible space-launch vehicle or for a rocket meant to carry a heavy satellite into orbit.
"The recent engine test indicates that Pyongyang continues to move forward with its space-launch vehicle and long-range missile programs despite continuing United Nations sanctions and China's public expressions of displeasure with the North's efforts to further develop nuclear weapons and the missiles to deliver them," the research team said Wednesday.
John Hopkins last month said it believed new operations were under way at the Punggye-ri nuclear test site. The site is where North Korea conducted tests in 2009 and 2013.

A Saudi offer to build a large mosque in Moscow has prompted Russian Orthodox organisations to ask for permission to build an Orthodox church in Saudi Arabia. Several western Christian churches have asked for or suggested such reciprocity with Saudi Arabia, which funds mosques abroad but bans any religion but Islam at home. It's an issue that can only become more pressing if King Abdullah continues to preach interfaith dialogue and tolerance around the globe while not practicing it at home.
The Russian Muftis Council announced the Saudi offer to fund a mosque last week, promting an open letter to King Abdullah a few days later by what Interfax news agency called Orthodox public organisations. It didn't come from the Russian Orthodox Church itself, but watch this space. The Russians have become increasingly active on the world religious scene as they emerge from the communist era and it would not be surprising to see them take a position on this question as well. There is probably also a domestic angle to this. Islam is the second largest religion in Russia and growing, so the Orthodox Church might feel a bit of competition. (Photo: St. Basil's Cathedral on Moscow's Red Square, 27 Jan 2007/Denis Sinyakov)
"You often say that Islam is a religion of justice. However, if Saudi Arabia builds mosques in dozens of Christian countries, isn't it just to build a church for Christians living in Your Kingdom!" says the letter quoted by Interfax. "It would be just to create the same conditions for Saudi Christians as Muslims have in Russia … It is the only way to make interreligious dialogue honest and just."
Read the full text of the letter in English here. It says Moscow already has two mosques but IslamOnline speaks of six.
Do you think it's important to see churches built in Saudi Arabia? Should this be a litmus test for assessing Abdullah's dialogue campaign?

Miss Muffet's Lemon Curd
This creamy lemon mixture would have had Little Miss Muffet sitting on her tuffet eating her curd away.
Get MoreSubscribe to Martha Stewart Living
- 4 large egg yolks, plus 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice (from 4 lemons)
- Salt
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup cold heavy cream
Step 1
Whisk egg yolks, egg, sugar, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt in a large heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Cook, whisking constantly, until pale and thick, 4 to 5 minutes. Strain mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl. Whisk in butter. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing directly onto surface to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Step 2
Whisk heavy cream with a mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. Fold whipped cream into lemon curd. Use immediately.

P.S. For a stronger lemon flavor you can add the zest of one fresh lemon... YUMMMMMMMMReply

I first fell in love with Lemon curd in Europe so whenever possible, I would pick up a jar.Reply
There are a lot of recipes available, but this recipe is absolutely the best one..its easy and tasty without the bitterness the packaged curd always seem to have. We first made this recipe to put between the layers of a birthday cake, and it was perfect and delicious. Now, I always keep a container in the refridgerator for buttered toast and bagels. Enjoy this one, it's a winner.

Laced with modern amenities two separate but twin hostel buildings for girls and boys
enhance the beauty of the campus. The dormitories are well ventilated, spacious and well lit, fostered with strict discipline but nurture with love.
A child is given the environment to develop his self esteem, self reliance and self discipline fully. Here the child finds a sweet home away from home. A mothers love, compassion and endearment is experienced in the form of Mrs Rajashree Sanjay Ghodke, a trustee and in true sense the driving force behind the smooth and successful function of the hostel
We expect our children to leave the school with qualities like independent thinking, intellectual, curiosity, compassion, self confidence and commitment; all necessary ingredients to take the society forward.

Slideshow: The 10 best smartphones of 2010
Summary: With the rise of Android, the reboot of BlackBerry, and the redesigned iPhone, 2010 can rightly be called the year of the smartphone. Here are the 10 elite smartphones of the year.
4 of 11Image
This shows how much progress the smartphone market has made in one year. Last year, I would have ranked the original Motorola Droid and the Apple iPhone 3GS as the two best smartphones on the market. This year, the Droid got a very nice upgrade but still struggled to make the top 10. Still, due to its increased specs, solid build quality, and very usable form factor, the Droid 2 belongs on this list. Also, don't miss its cousins, the Droid Pro and the Droid 2 Global.
To view this as a text-based list, see the companion blog post.
With much the same innards as the Google Nexus One (although not nearly as strong of a build quality), the HTC Incredible was a consolation prize for those who had been salivating for the Nexus One on Verizon. Unfortunately, Google and Verizon pulled the plug on those plans and instead HTC offered the Incredible through Verizon with the traditional two-year contract. The Incredible did get one thing that the Nexus One didn't have: HTC's Sense UI. Some viewed that as a bonus over the stock Android OS on the Nexus One, while others saw it as a detractor.
To view this as a text-based list, see the companion blog post.
Microsoft finally got itself back in the smartphone game in 2010 with the launch of Windows Phone 7, and the first widely-available WP7 device was the Samsung Focus, which didn't disappoint. The Focus sported nice hardware specs in an attractive, futuristic form factor (albeit with a lot of plastic, similar to the Galaxy S). And, Windows Phone 7 offered a new take on smartphone UI that is a little but more polished and fluid than Android or BlackBerry, although not quite as finished as the iPhone.

I would be alone if not for you
Submarine (2010)
If you smushed together Harold & Maude, early Woody Allen movies and Rushmore, you'll get Submarine. It's not necessarily a bad thing, but it's a bit too precious and twee.
Of note: the director is Richard Ayeode who starred in Garth Marenghi's Dark Place and the IT Crowd. So that's kinda cool!

Sturdy indeed and good to the last drop. Taking this on a 2 week camping trip. Will cut up and freeze stacks for desserts on 2 occasions. The batter had my helper licking the spoons in the time honored manner. Since blueberry season is almost upon me, I'll be using them to top the shortcake instead of the peaches. I imagine most any fruit would work with this cake.
Citrus Shortcake
Bake this lightly sweetened, sturdy cake-style shortcake in a square pan to use for both weekend desserts. You'll only need 7 of the squares, so freeze the remaining 2 for another use (or go ahead and pack them; consider them secret snacks for the cook).
This recipe goes with Brandied Peach Shortcakes, Mixed Berry Trifles

If other battle groups have a similar makeup as Reckoning; You'll see the same players. A lot. There are so few people in the BGs now, that if you stick to WSG, for example, you're practically in a X-realm premade every evening.
Once this service gets fully up and running (mostly error pages so far), I will definitely use it to check out whos got the best Flag running gear, which hunters have SS, who's got the PvP Glove/Set bonuses, and who's got the talent points stacked in healing.
If you know which toons to follow for a flag gra, or which opponents to Focus Fire at the start of a match; it's a HUGE advantage (assuming half your team doesn't die in the midfield on the way over :/
