How to beat your wheat belly
Rex Features
Forget everything you think you know about 'healthy' whole-grains, because your outlook may be about to change, thanks to a book by a US cardiologist.
Whole-grains are indeed better for you than refined white flour, but only in the way Marlboro Lights are healthier than fully loaded cigarettes, argues Dr William Davis in his book entitled Wheat Belly. The good doctor claims that it's not chowing down burgers and ice-cream that piles on the pounds, it's eating wheat, something we're all doing far too much of these days.
And Dr Davis isn't alone; a growing number of health experts are arguing that wheat could be responsible for a host of conditions, including diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, acne, acid reflux, man boobs (shudder) and, of course, wheat belly.
Personal trainer Gavin Walsh (gavinwalsh.co.uk) says: "It used to be all about the beer belly, but it turns out we were wrong – it's wheat belly that is the real issue nowadays. Men (and women) eat far too many products containing wheat and gluten. There are other products containing gluten, but wheat heavily dominates and is more of a problem than say rye or barley, and it's high time we changed our habits."
Rex Features
Going against the grain
Part of the problem with wheat today is that it's not wheat as our grandmothers knew it. It's become what Dr Davis calls an "incredibly destructive genetic monster." Walsh explains: "Over the last 50 years wheat has had a huge facelift and unfortunately it hasn't turned out well - think Michael Jackson. The agricultural scientists have created a modern wheat in a bid to cut costs, increase production and make it more resilient to the environment. Unfortunately this has devalued the nutritional content and encouraged fat storage.
"Meanwhile, we were advised by the health boffins that fat was bad, and we should eat healthy whole-grains instead. This was a big mistake made half a century ago. Unfortunately, cutting out fat hasn't had the desired impact. We are more overweight than ever before and diseases such as cancer and heart disease are more prominent."
Another part of the problem is that wheat is everywhere in our diets. Everywhere - and in places you wouldn't expect. Nutrition consultant Claire Harper (thenutritionguide.co.uk) says: "White bread, pasta, couscous, cakes, biscuits, pancakes, croissants, pastry, muffins, sauces (as a thickener), salad dressings, batter, soups, soy sauce, sausages… the list goes on."
The average British male doesn't exactly help his cause, either. Walsh adds: "The problem is that wheat dominates many a man's diet. For example, cereal or toast for breakfast, sandwich for lunch and pasta or pizza for dinner. It's no wonder that many men are struggling to lose weight and become healthy again."
Rex Features
Rocketing blood sugar
It's important to note that Dr Davis, and other experts who have spoken out against wheat, aren't aiming their advice at those of us who suffer from the intestinal condition coeliac disease, which affects about 1% of the population – they believe wheat is doing bad things to all of us.
Walsh says: "Wheat has an nasty habit of bumping up blood sugar and causing the fat storage hormone, insulin, to sweep up the excess and store it as plain old belly fat. Unfortunately, wheat gluten contains an evil protein that causes our intestines to allow food substances to pass into the bloodstream that shouldn't be there. This causes inflammatory issues and abnormal metabolic signals. So much so, that by consuming too much wheat can lead the body to produce an excess of the female hormone oestrogen, leading to the dreaded moobs. Wheat belly and moobs – not a good combination!
"Most people don't know that two slices of wholemeal bread increases blood sugar more than two tablespoons of pure sugar. Yet we're encouraged by many health bodies to eat more 'healthy grains' that contain wheat."
Harper agrees, adding that white flour is a particular danger. "We eat far too much wheat and there are two main problems with it," she says. "White flour has the bran and natural fibre removed, so there is nothing to slow down the release of its energy into the bloodstream. This causes a big spike in insulin. Ongoing blood sugar disruption can also cause cortisol to be elevated, which particularly encourages fat to be stored around the middle. Don't forget that wheat is also in beer.
"The other thing is that wheat can be poorly digested, causing fermentation, bloating, gas and discomfort in the abdomen. We can become intolerant to the proteins in wheat, usually from eating too much of them, having a weakened immune system or having poor gut flora."
Associated Press
Belly-shrinking alternatives
The simple answer to all these problems? Cut wheat out of your diet, or at least reduce your intake drastically. If you're not convinced, or think you can't survive without those whole-grains, try it for a week and see what happens. Our experts say you'll be amazed at the difference.
"When I was growing up I used to eat bread, pasta and rice like it was going out of fashion," says Walsh. "Although I was very active and physically fit I wasn't healthy due to the overload of starchy carbs and, more specifically, wheat. If I had a late night or didn't eat at set meal times my immune system would plummet. I'd be sneezing, tired and generally look a mess. It wasn't until I cut out wheat that my health and energy began to improve massively.
In my experience, by simply avoiding wheat products you can lose 20, 30 or even 40 pounds in just a few months without changing anything else in your diet. If weight loss is your goal then I recommend cutting out wheat for four weeks to see what difference it makes. Even if your goal isn't weight loss I recommend cutting out wheat to see how your health and energy improves. What have you got to lose?"
As well as giving up wheat for a while, Harper also stresses the need to restore balance in your belly. She says: "Try cutting out all wheat and taking a probiotic to improve the balance of good bacteria in the gut. This could have a very positive effect on the 'pregnant belly' look.
"Reducing all grains is a good idea if you want to lose the tummy and moobs, but you could also try alternative whole-grains such as rye, millet or spelt. And fill up instead on vegetables, seeds and nuts for your carbohydrates. Protein and foods high in healthy fats (fish, avocadoes, olives), are great for sustained energy that won't make you fat!"
So if you think you've tried everything to lose weight, without success, think again. Booze, sugar, saturated fat and now – wheat. There's a new bad boy to add to the list.

Wheat berries
I just bought a hundred pounds of wheat berries, in anticipation of tough economic times. I would like suggestions for them. I am thinking wheat pilaf, blender wheat waffles and pancakes, and of course, bread. But what are some other good ideas.
Wow, 100# !!!! I'm impressed. But thanks for reminding me of a recipe I haven't fixed in a few years. It's in Martha Stewart Healthy Quick cookbook:
Rejuvelac is an awesome slightly fermented drink with almost mystical properties.
In the process of making it, you're half way to sprouting wheat grass. You can use it as starter for multiple different raw foods--raw vegan/nut cheeses and also certain breads.
Reminds me of something my parents did years ago. A neighbor had leased a field and planted wheat. My parents bough something like half a fiber drum of wheat. I remember them cooking some whole overnight in the double boiler. They also sent some out in batches for cracking; this was sifted. The fine parts was used as whole wheat flour, and the rest as cracked wheat cereal. I think this wheat lasted several years.
Once cooked the wheat berries can be flavored in various ways. It can be sweetened. There is, for example, a sweet Lebanese dish that is often prepared for memorials. There are also salads. I'm not familiar with savory preparations, but I can imagine using cooked berries this way.
For a start I'd suggest cooking them with just a bit of salt, at a time when you aren't in any rush. They'll may take longer to cook than you expect.
Heidi at 101 cookbooks just posted a great wheatberry recipe yesterday...
I often make a Wheat Berry Salad that is great:
Prepare the wheat berries (I use chicken broth instead of water for more flavor... Vegetable broth would also work). Drain and rise them and let them cool.
In the meantime, dice vegetables:
red and yellow bell pepper
red onion...
whatever sounds good, you could use corn, peas, string beans... I like to use all of them raw but you could blanch some of them if you like.
Toss the cooled wheat berries with the vegetables, homemade vinaigrette, a few herbs (basil, thyme, chives...whatever you have on hand) and some crumbled goat cheese or feta. Great taste, nice crunch and very healthy. It will keep a few days in the fridge as well.
It is also known as farro, so keep an eye out for recipes with that word in it.
I'm not sure if buying 100 pounds is really going to help you survive this economic winter (we aren't exactly at the stage of eating donkey meat just yet are we?!) but good luck with the venture - my guess is at about 50 pounds down, you're going to get rather tired of eating this stuff but to each their own.
In any case, make sure you store this product properly. Like all grains they are very prone to spoilage especially in their whole state like this (with the bran attached). Insects LOVE this stuff and the massive quantity you have only makes it harder to control. Among other things that love whole wheat like this: rodents and fungus. If you can store this in a refrigerated state, that is optimal. At that amount you'll likely need a separate refrigerator or freezer but that ups electrical bills and the advantage of having something like this in bulk in nullified. Just be aware that the bran is very prone to turning rancid. I just hope you've done a little research on storage before jumping into the venture!
re: HaagenDazs
actually, grains in whole state like this are much less prone to spoilage than in the flour, or separated state. The germ can go rancid quickly as soon as the whole state is broken up, but otherwise, it can keep as a seed for a long time if kept in a cool, dry place. So, if it's whole wheat flour, than you might consider refridgerating, but if in whole wheat berry form, just keep in dry cool place will be fine.
Also, consider this: Lemon is a fruit, but a fruit is not necessary a lemon. We often see Farro in the form of wheat berries, but not all wheat berries are farro.
re: HaagenDazs
Well, I'm sure it will help--giving me some comfort at the very least. Wheat can keep almost forever if stored properly [and mine is]--I read somewhere that the Egyptian tombs contained wheat that was still edible when they were opened thousands of years later.
Donkey meat? I think I prefer wheat.
Thanks for the suggestions everyone.
re: Guenevere
OK maybe I'm wrong - I'm comparing it to something like brown rice which I why I mention spoilage. In any case, I'm sticking with the bugs, rodents, and moisture issues. ;-)
I'm comparing this venture to those people who ate donkey meat during the depression era because there wasn't anything else. My point was that we're not exactly at a stage where we're lining up for rations, so to invest in this product "in anticipation of tough economic times" sounds a little strange to me. You know like all those people that built bunkers for Y2K. Fun idea, good to have in a tornado I suppose, but is it really necessary and practical? Now maybe you just have space for an extra 100 pounds of grain lying around the house...?
re: HaagenDazs
Perhaps she's expecting a rapid rise in wheat berry prices? 50kg is a standard size for rice, and if you have a family isn't actually all that much rice. When prices shot up on that grain, people bought several sacks at a time to stock up, insuring against future price rises.
Maybe I should stock up on champagne and foie gras in, uh, anticipation for tough economic times?
re: tmso
"50kg is a standard size for rice"
Maybe in Japan, but not in the United States.
Granted I know of several places here in Atlanta where I can grab a big burlap bag full of grain, but most grocery stores I visit don't have 100+ pound bags just sitting around. I cook rice often enough, but it would take me a long time of eating rice EVERY DAY to work through that much.
...And yes, even for a family 100+ pounds of anything is a lot. Imagine if you bought everything in 100 lb sizes. You'd be sleeping on your food as well as eating it!
re: HaagenDazs
Yes, it's a standard size even in the US. If you go to stores catering to Asian populations, you'll see sacks or rice going up to 50kg. Certainly in California. You wouldn't want to buy everything in 50kg sacks, but I had a friend in college who started out the year buying a 50kg sack of rice and another of pinto beans. They were a bit prominent in his kitchen. In contrast, my 50 pounds of pasta looked quite reasonable.
But I was being facetious there -- since the OP doesn't even know what to do with wheat berries, I'm pretty sure this isn't a case of buying a great big bag for convenience.
re: tmso
Gotcha - I caught that sarcasm after I posted, sorry. ;-)
By standard sizes, I meant you can find them anywhere which just isn't the case. If walk into Joe Blow Kroger in Anywhere, USA you will not find a 110 pound bag of rice along side the 2 and 5 pound bag sizes under the pre-seasoned Mexican rice bags. Granted, you can easily find them in Asian markets and that's what I was referring to, but when you say "standard" I'm talking about waltz into any store and expect to find that size.
re: HaagenDazs
Does anyone remember Aesop and his fables??? Well there is one I learned as a child…it goes..
IN a field one summer's day a Grasshopper was hopping about, chirping and singing to its heart's content. An Ant passed by, bearing along with great toil an ear of corn he was taking to the nest.
"Why not come and chat with me," said the Grasshopper, "instead of toiling and moiling in that way?"
"I am helping to lay up food for the winter," said the Ant, "and recommend you to do the same."
"Why bother about winter?" said the Grasshopper; "we have got plenty of food at present." But the Ant went on its way and continued its toil. When the winter came the Grasshopper had no food, and found itself dying of hunger, while it saw the ants distributing every day corn and grain from the stores they had collected in the summer. Then the Grasshopper knew:
HaagenDazs, you scoff at people who have enough to have to sleep on it… I would rather be sleeping on my wheat storage than a soft feather bed. When I am eating bread I will be watching you try to eat your feathers. My husband is a retired Army cook… so we don't have a 'pantry' we have a ration room. It is the size of a small bedroom and we are wishing we had a larger one. I think all of you are missing one point here… you DO NOT store this stuff indefinitely…there is a 'new' concept out there call ROTATION. No one should expect to jump in and use these 'whole grain's' without first getting our bodies use to it first. In other words, learn to use it in your everyday life, store what you will use, and rotate your supply. Date the container when you get it, use the older first and then as you use it replace it. IT IS CALLED ROTATION. If you do it like this you won't have any worries about spoilage. There is also one cheap sure fire way of keeping the bugs out of grains and flour. For every 10 lbs of grain/flour put 3-4 whole bay leaves in the container. This will keep the bugs away and will NOT change the taste of the product. One great storage idea is the big white buckets you can buy cheap from Wal-mart/ Home Depot type places. The ones with the really tight lid and handle on them.
Yes, HaagenDazs, I do sleep on my food storage but not the wheat. Hidden under our bed are cases of canned goods that we rotate. It is things we use on a weekly, monthly bases, tuna, canned corn, other canned meats, even my husbands favorites sardines….YUCKY. We buy that type of thing in case lots and they are less expensive that way too so it helps us if there is a shortage in the stores someday in the future and with our monthly budget helping us stretch the cash. Who doesn't want to do that these days.
re: lLACEY2001
Wow I love the idea of the bay leaves, I have plenty of them on hand. Once I had earwigs get into my dry stuff and had to throw it all out, I'm still sad to this day.
I believe that is the grain in Italian Grain Pie, and Easter is right around the corner. Maybe make a bunch and sell them, they go for at least $20 around here.
A related question is: what are practical ways of grinding whole wheat? I think my parents sent theirs out to some small scale mill, but most of us don't have access to anything like that. I've seen 'grind it yourself' stations in bulk food section of some fancy groceries. Maybe a good food processor is enough. You might also want to invest in good sieve or two. I believe traditional fine ones were made from horse hair.
Anyways, being able to crack and grind that wheat will give you many more options for using it.
I was going to ask whether you can grind your wheat berries though Paulj beat me to it.
Though I didn't get it solely "in anticipation of tough economic times", a while back I got myself a stone quern - a manual stone grinder- and I've been playing (and making food) with various grains in their whole state. Here's some: http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/471680
At first, I've found that stone grinding dry wheat berries may be slightly better than the conventional way of grain mills. I have found a way to sieve the flour and at one point was separating them into 4 different sizes. (The best ingredients for Graham Cracker comes from this!) Whole wheat flour ground this way tastes totally different from the whole wheat flour you get from the stores.
but...then there's the theory about fortifying and aging flour, about how nutrients are lost from the moment the dry grain is broken apart....I never got to figure out how on the one hand you want to prevent nutrient-loss by using it quickly, and on the other hand, that you need to age it by leaving it out for 2 weeks to oxidize???
So now, it's mostly back to soaking the wheat berries first, as if to sprout them., Then drain and grain with small amounts of water added. Wet-ground whole wheat is really delicious. In fact, at the semi-sprout stage (where you see a dot of white on each grain) , the wet-grind has a refreshing grassy smell on top of the creamy smell of wheat. Edit: you mentioned making bread, so I wanted add that the wet-ground wheat has great potential for to be dough starters, as it certainly has a much more complex smell and taste then dry flour mixed with water.
Anyhow, don't worry you'll never run out of things to do with the 100 lbs of wheat berries.
May I ask how/where you got the wheat berries, and whether they are hard or soft wheat? I'm paying something like $1.30 per lbs for them, but if it can be cheaper by the hundred pounds..I might have to look into that soon!
re: tempehtempeh
In very general term hard wheat flour is better for bread, pizza, pasta, and soft wheat flour better for cakes and pastry. But that gets tricky as many factor depends on the milling method and treatment. Also, conventional flour you get in the stores are a blend of flours from different types of wheat.
From my own stone-grinding experience, i've found the hard red wheat to be indeed harder, but then the bran is thinner and separates quite cleanly from the finer powdery endosperm in dry grinding; soft wheat in dry grinding I find less yield of the finer flour (compared to the hard wheat) as the bran seem thicker even though it is softer. Not sure if that makes sense?
In any case, the above is from manually stone grinding the dry wheat berries.
I like this Waldorf wheat berry salad. It has apples, celery, walnuts, dried cranberries, mint, a really good dressing . . . . and wheat berries.
at Cranks in London the vegetarian restaurants of the 70s and 80s we used to make what they called Wheat Fricassee. It's 20+ years since I made it there but if memory serves me well is was pretty much cooked wheat berries in a cheese sauce with cooked carrots and leeks. Then I think we baked it in the oven with some cheese on top.
Makes a difference whether it's hard winter wheat or ... um, the other kind. Check out _Italian_Farmhouse_Cooking_ (if that kind of thing appeals to you) - she talks about wheat berries and that's usually my got-o source for them. I just made them the other night & served them with meat sauce & salad on the side.
re: Mawrter
Okay, I was out on business for a while, so I missed some comments.
I do feel as if I need to clarify my situation to dodge some of the comments here.
First of all, I do know what to do with wheat, I was looking for new ideas. I do have a wheat grinder, and I make 100% wheat bread and lots of other pastries. I just knew that there had to be more out there. And you guys have some really great ideas, I never thought of grain pie, or the wheat fricassee and the other stuff. Thanks so much.
I canned it in large metal cans at a do it- yourself cannery in my area {my area has a lot of Mormons, and they often have canneries that anyone can use} and my cost was way cheap, because I got the wheat through them.
Also, my husband is about to get laid off, although I work, and the last time we had financial problems, we ate cracked wheat cereal in the morning for pennies, so stocking up for hard times on a staple that I love and know is nutricious made sense.
People gave some great ideas. Thanks.

One eastern Iowa campground is finally open for one of summer's busiest camping weekends. Miller-Riverview Park and Campground in Dubuque was closed a majority of the summer due to flooding. Due to the high waters, the campground was not able to host campers for the Memorial Day and Fourth of July weekends - 2 weekends that are busy for the campground. Kenneth Clayton is the manager of Miller-Riverview Park and Campground. He says the busiest time for the campground is the Fourth of July.
"We have the fireworks right across the channel there and then we have the air show goes right above us. That weekend we are over capacity." Clayton said.
Clayton says the campground usually makes between $7,000 and $8,000 for the Fourth of July weekend. Labor Day weekend was the first holiday weekend for the campground since opening at the end of July. Although floodwaters have gone away at the campground, campground officials say they are only allowing campers on 80 of the 110 available camping sites. That lack of sites is leading officials to say it's not their busiest Labor Day weekend.
"I'm down a little bit from the other weekends just for the simple fact that I got sites that I don't like to rent out because they are muddy...No one enjoys camping in the mud." Clayton said.
Although this year's Labor Day weekend has not been the busiest, campground officials say since opening this summer, business at the campground has been good.
"It's been a holiday weekend almost every weekend, we are almost to capacity." Clayton said.
The Miller-Riverview Park and Campground will remain open everyday until October 27th.

sangha's endless list of favourite films:: Memento (2000) dir. Christopher Nolan
I have to believe that when my eyes are closed, the world's still there. Do I believe the world's still there? Is it still out there?
I sit here, still utterly mindfucked whenever I see Memento.
Gus Van Sant, Christopher Nolan, Danny Boyle, David Fincher, and Ron Howard
Billions of dollars made from the box office came from the mind of these men.
The epic-ness, I can't take it.
Christopher Nolan, Heath Ledger and Christian Bale on set of The Dark Knight
This makes me so happy.
Michael Caine's opinion (who played "Alfred" in both of Nolan's Batman films) was that Heath Ledger beat the odds and topped Jack Nicholson's Joker from Batman, 1989.
Caine said;
"Jack was like a clown figure, benign but wicked, maybe a killer old uncle. He could be funny and make you laugh. Heath's gone in a completely different direction to Jack, he's like a really scary psychopath. He's a lovely guy and his Joker is going to be a hell of a revelation in this picture."
Caine bases this belief on a scene where the Joker pays a visit to Bruce Wayne's penthouse. He'd never met Ledger before, so when Ledger arrived and performed he gave Caine such a fright that he forgot his lines.
In preparation for his role as The Joker, Heath Ledger hid away in a motel room for about six weeks. During this extended stay of seclusion, Ledger delved deep into the psychology of the character. He devoted himself to developing The Joker's every tic, namely the voice and that sadistic-sounding laugh (for the voice, Ledger's goal was to create a tone that didn't echo the work Jack Nicholson did in his 1989 performance as the Joker). Ledger's interpretation of The Joker's appearance was primarily based off of the chaotic, disheveled look of punk rocker Sid Vicious combined with the psychotic mannerisms of Malcolm McDowell's character, Alex De Large, from A Clockwork Orange.
Someone more scarier than Jack Nicholson is a thought to think hard about.
But I got to agree, Ledger amazed the world. One final last time.

For all of you, who weren't 100% sure it was her, we now have the proof! The production company responsible for Melissa King, the former Miss Delaware Teen USA's porn tape have released some damning footage exposing the beauty queen.
GDPMovies.com has released footage of Melissa King, in the flesh, reading her consent form prior to filming her porno. In the video she reveals her full legal name, the date the porn was filmed and confesses she is of sound mind and body, no one has forced her to do this and she releases all rights of the footage to the production company. At this point, you can't even make an argument it isn't her; nor can she fight to get the footage taken down. GDPMovies.com was smart enough to film her reading the consent, so not only is it on paper in hard-copy, it's on tape as well.
We recently reported that King only received $1,500 for her first ever porn tape. But since it's release, she's now been offered a $250,000 porn contract with YouPorn.com. Check out the newest footage exposing the beauty queen below.

"You know what I like most about waitressing? When I'm doing it, I'm not
thinking that much about myself. I'm thinking about other people. I'm
learning again and again what it takes to make a difference in other people's lives."
From Joan:
What is it about hope that keeps us going? I think it keeps our eyes on better days
to come. When I wrote Hope Was Here, I never imagined that a whole community
would read it. I admit, there were a few days--okay, months--when I wondered if I'd
even finish the third draft. And yet, there I was in Saginaw, Michigan, last September
surrounded by thousands of children, teenagers, and adults who had indeed read my book.
How did they find it? Not the usual way. A few community volunteers knew this town
needed hope after a series of tragic deaths of local teenagers. They typed "hope"
into the Google search engine and found my novel. The thought of that still staggers me.
Would I come, they asked, and speak to the community who was going
to be reading my book over the summer?
I'll never forget that day in Saginaw. It was the day that showed
me how stories connect us. I met my oldest reader -a 93 year old-
woman; I spoke to 1700 high school students gathered in their
gymnasium. I met parents who had lost children in tragic accidents
and were trying to keep going. I met business people who read the
book in groups during their lunch hours. I met a teacher who worked
with mentally handicapped young people who read the book aloud to
her class and patiently explained the story so those students
could take part in the event. Several months after that visit, I'm
told the hope is still growing.
In Saginaw I learned something so powerful about writing. A book comes alive as people
add their stories to it. The people of Saginaw layered their stories of hope onto mine
and made it richer than anything I could have envisioned. They will forever be part of Hope Was Here.
One Book/One City Programs
Saginaw, Michigan chose Hope Was Here for a city-wide read during the summer and fall
of 2002 to help the town heal after a series of tragic deaths of several high school students in car accidents.

Toledo, Ohio products liability lawyers report on California case
Comments (0)
A settlement of more than $1 million was recently reached after a four-year-old boy ingested a pair of small magnets made by Rose Art, according to the Jere Beasley Report. The toys stuck together inside the boy's digestive system, lodging in his pelvis. Surgery performed after two ER visits saved the boy from suffering wrongful death, but he will have digestive problems for the rest of his life, including abdominal pain, constipation, and diarrhea, and will be forced to always adhere to a strict diet.
The plaintiffs argued that even though there was a "choking hazard" warning label on the toy, the packaging did not disclose the severity of ingesting the magnets, or the serious personal injury that their magnetic attraction could cause.
Our Toledo, Ohio personal injury attorneys urge parents to carefully choose the toys their children play with, and supervise them at all times. Make sure the toys are age-appropriate, and cannot be swallowed.
If you or someone you love has suffered personal injury from a defective product, contact our Toledo, Ohio products liability attorneys or by calling 800.637.8170 today for your FREE consultation and case evaluation.

A driver died Monday afternoon after a car crash in Tooele County.
The man was driving on Interstate 80 about 40 miles east of Wendover about 8:30 a.m. when the car rolled over, said Utah Highway Patrol Cpl. Todd Johnson. The driver was ejected from the car. He was flown to a hospital, where he died, Johnson said.

A female passenger also was critically injured and flown to a hospital, while a male passenger suffered serious injuries and was taken to a separate hospital. Their conditions were not available Monday night.
Troopers suspected the driver may have fallen asleep at the wheel, but the investigation remained inconclusive as of Monday night.
An unrelated crash occurred about 9 a.m. on State Road 73 about 10 miles west Fairfield; a medical helicopter also was sent to that crash, but no one was seriously injured, Johnson said.

Terrible recipe! What kind of jerk recipe doesn't have scotch bonnet peppers and garlic? This was terrible. Paprika? This is more like a (bad) attempt at Cajun.

Hon. Warwick L. Smith LLB, June 2002
The Australian Greenhouse Office was established to directly respond to Australia's international obligations and national policy objectives in relation to greenhouse and climate change.
The formation of a Commonwealth Greenhouse Office was announced in November 1997 in the Prime Minister's statement Safeguarding the Future: Australia's Response to Climate Change. The Commonwealth Greenhouse Office was to be the lead agency on greenhouse matters and coordinate domestic climate change policy. The Office was to be established as a separate agency within the Environment Portfolio, for an initial period of two years. (Details of reporting and governance arrangements for the Office are covered in Section 2.4.)
In response to this announcement, in April 1998 the Australian Greenhouse Office was established as a Prescribed Agency within the Environment and Heritage portfolio.
In March 2000 the AGO became an Executive Agency with the following functions:
The vision, mission and values of the AGO are listed in Box 2. The AGO is seeking to meet Australia's international greenhouse commitments through effective domestic action in a way that advances our national interest in terms of:
More specifically, the AGO will:

Box 2: AGO Vision, Mission and Values
AGO Vision: Australians working together to meet the challenge of climate change
AGO Mission: Leading Australia's greenhouse action to achieve effective and sustainable results
AGO Values: The core values and behaviours the AGO will pursue in carrying out its mission are:
Source: AGO Corporate Plan 1999-2001
The current structure of the AGO is shown in Figure 1. The major responsibilities of the three main work groups of the AGO are also shown in the figure. Since 1999-2000, staffing levels have been stable at around 170 staff (Table 1). Figure 1 does not include the Office of the Renewable Energy Regulator, which was established as a separate statutory agency in February 2001 and administers the Renewable Energy (Electricity) Act 2000 and the Renewable Energy (Electricity) Regulations 2001.

Number of Staff
|* All figures are as at 30 June, except for 1997–98, which are average staffing numbers
Like other Commonwealth Government agencies, the AGO adopts an outcomes and outputs framework as the basis of its budgetary documentation and reporting. Under this framework, the AGO organises its program and policy work into five output groups. Figure 2 illustrates these diagrammatically, also showing the link to the higher-order environmental outcome of the Environment & Heritage portfolio.
|Outcome 1 — The environment especially those aspects that are matters of national environmental significance, is protected and conserved
|Sub-outcome — Australians working together to meet the challenge of climate change
|1.1 Leading the agenda
|1.1.1 Developing the strategy for the future and broadening the commitment to greenhouse action
|1.2 Taking early action
|1.2.1 Working with partners across Australia to take immediate action in reducing our national greenhouse emissions
|1.3 Promoting sustainable energy
|1.3.1 Reducing emissions for the energy sector while meeting the needs of the community and stakeholders for ecologically sustainable energy services
|1.4 Enhancing the land
|1.4.1 Enhance Australia's natural resources management by promoting greenhouse actions on the land
|1.5 Staying on track
|1.5.1 Evaluating progress towards commitments under the convention and the Kyoto target, and improving the knowledge base on climate change
|1 The AGO provides funding for the Office of the Renewable Energy Regulator, which operates independently of the AGO. The Diesel and Alternative Fuel Grants Scheme is delivered by the Australian Taxation Office, with the AGO's involvement limited to certification of fuel eligibility and assisting with the determination of grant rates.
The programs managed by the AGO, their total funding allocations, expenditure to date and budgeted future expenditure are shown in Appendices B and C. It presently administers or is involved in 28 programs , worth nearly $1 billion in total over the life of their delivery. Eighteen of the programs are part of the Prime Minister's 1997 Safeguarding the Future package; seven programs (and sub-programs), worth $796 million are from the Measures for a Better Environment package and the remaining three were new measures in the 1999-2000 budget. Descriptions of some of these initiatives are given below.
The $400 million GGAP provides funding for activities that are likely to result in substantial emission reductions or substantial sink enhancement, particularly in the first commitment period under the Kyoto Protocol (2008-12). It supports activities that result in cost-effective, large-scale and quantifiable abatement that would not likely occur without GGAP funding. GGAP is projected to deliver total savings of 10.8 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalents per annum by 2010. To date, more than $150 million has been invested across a broad range of sectors, that is expected to result in a further $900 million investment in abatement action by industry.
The AGO's suite of renewable energy programs provide over $300 million for actions that encourage development and innovation in Australia's renewable energy industry. These include the Renewable Remote Power Generation Program, which provides rebates for the capital cost of renewable energy installation, to reduce reliance on diesel fuel for electricity generation in areas not serviced by the electricity grid. Other programs include the Renewable Energy Equity Fund, which supports smaller companies involved in innovative Australian renewable energy technology projects, and the Renewable Energy Commercialisation Program that supports renewable industry development, including acceleration of the commercialisation of innovative renewable energy technologies.
The Greenhouse Challenge is a joint voluntary initiative between the Government and industry to abate greenhouse gas emissions. Since it was launched in 1995, more than 700 businesses from a range of industries have signed up to the Greenhouse Challenge program. Challenge participants represent almost 50 per cent of total emissions from non-agriculture industries, and have reported combined emission savings or more than 30 million tonnes to date.
The NCAS was established to provide an accounting capability for land-based sources and sinks of greenhouse gas emissions. This $12.5 million program will provide better confidence in estimates of Australia's greenhouse gas emissions that come from activities like cropping, grazing, land clearing and forestry. It also underpins reporting of Australia's greenhouse gas emissions for the Kyoto Protocol and National Greenhouse Gas Inventory and assists in providing data that will assist assessments of progress towards meeting emissions targets.
The AGO was initially established for a two year period as a prescribed Agency under the Financial Management and Accountability Act 1998, within the Environment and Heritage portfolio. In March 2000, the AGO became an Executive Agency under the Public Service Act 1999. This change of status established the Office as an ongoing agency. The intent of the Executive Agency structure is to provide a degree of separation from departmental management and priorities, but where something less than a statutory authority is warranted. The AGO is also a prescribed agency under the Financial Management and Accountability Act 1997.
Under this arrangement the AGO is still part of the Environment and Heritage Portfolio. The Chief Executive Officer of the AGO is responsible to the Minister for the Environment and Heritage for the delivery and management of the AGO budget outputs. The AGO budget is included within the portfolio budget statement of the Environment and Heritage Portfolio.
There are a number of bodies established that have a role in corporate governance for the AGO and broader climate change policy coordination.
A Ministerial Council on Greenhouse was established to oversight the policy and program framework of the AGO. Regular members of the Council were the Ministers representing the three portfolios with the strongest interest in climate change - the Minister for Environment and Heritage (chair), Minister for Industry, Science and Resources (now Industry, Tourism and Resources) and the Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (the Minister for Finance and Administration was also initially a regular member, but withdrew in June 2001). The Ministers for Foreign Affairs and Trade and Transport and Regional Services could also participate as appropriate.
The Ministerial Council was supported by the Secretaries' Committee on Greenhouse which comprises the Secretaries of Environment Australia (chair), Industry, Science & Resources and Agriculture, Fisheries & Forestry Australia, the Chief Executive Officer of the AGO and a senior official from the Department of Prime Minister & Cabinet. The Departments of Foreign Affairs and Trade and Transport and Regional Services could also participate through their Secretaries or a delegate.
The Ministerial Council on Greenhouse has been superseded by the Sustainable Environment Committee of Cabinet (SEC), which was established after the last federal election. SEC membership is the Prime Minister (Chair), Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Transport and Regional Services, Minister for the Environment and Heritage, Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry, Minister for Education and Science, Minister for Industry and Resources and Minister for Forestry and Conservation. SEC's mandate includes greenhouse policy issues; program issues (eg funding) that might have been dealt with through the Ministerial Council on Greenhouse are now handled through informal consultative arrangements between the AGO and the three principal climate change departments.
The Chief Executive of the AGO is also a member of the High Level Group on Greenhouse, a Commonwealth/State high-level officials group established to monitor, review and further develop the National Greenhouse Strategy (see Section 3.1.2). This Group reports to the Council of Australian Governments.
Other high-level and/or expert groups established to assist the AGO in its work include the Greenhouse Challenge Joint Consultative Committee, High Level Steering Committee for the National Carbon Accounting System, Greenhouse Science Advisory Committee and National Greenhouse Gas Inventory Committee.

Special Thoroughbred Race to Celebrate ASSE, Laurel Racetrack Centennials
Contact: Diane Hurns, firstname.lastname@example.com; ASSE member Rob Alternburg, 410-278-3162
BALTIMORE, MD (August 22, 2011) – A special celebration of two October centennial birthdays will take place this October 19 at Laurel Park racetrack. In honor of the American Society of Safety Engineers' (ASSE) 100th anniversary, the ASSE Chesapeake Chapter, representing occupational safety, health and environmental professionals, has teamed up with Laurel Park, also celebrating its 100th anniversary, to hold "The ASSE 100th Anniversary Classic" race this October 19. ASSE was founded October 14, 1911, and the Laurel Park racetrack opened on October 2, 1911.
In addition to the special race, the ASSE chapter's meeting to be held that day at Laurel Park will feature presentations on the safety aspects of working in the horse racing industry as well as a review of the regulatory requirements for public access automatic external defibrillator (AED) programs. Following the meeting, the "ASSE 100th Anniversary Classic" race will take place and the chapter will join the winning jockey in the winner's circle. A finish line photo of the winning horse and a winner's circle photo with the horse and jockey along with the trainer, owner, and others who work with the horse will be presented to ASSE as part of the 100th anniversary celebration.
The Maryland Jockey Club Safety and Environmental Director Patrick Wheltle, MS, CSP, EMT-B, and second vice president and membership chair of the ASSE Chesapeake Chapter, will be the key speaker in the Director's Room at Laurel Park October 19 for the meeting. He will provide an overview of regional, state and District of Columbia (D.C.) regulations governing public access AED programs with an emphasis on Maryland regulations. The events begin at 1:00 p.m.
"Working for the Maryland Jockey Club provides for some unique and interesting challenges. In addition to ensuring the health and safety of patrons and employees, we have to deal with the safe interaction between the horses and the people that work with them. We also have to plan annually for the Preakness Stakes, which routinely draws more than 100,000 spectators," Wheltle said.
ASSE was founded in October 1911 just months after one of the worst workplace tragedies in recent history, the March 25, 1911, Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire in New York City. ASSE was formed by safety engineers and those in the insurance industry in New York City to enhance safety with the mission "to promote harmonious action in safety work and to educate members in all matters relating to industrial safety and accident prevention." Today ASSE not only has more than 34,000 occupational safety, health and environmental professional members but has moved forward over the decades on assisting with developments of products, services, programs, legislation and more aimed at preventing injuries and illnesses in the workplace.
"If you look back at the workplace before 1911 the statistics are harrowing when it comes to protecting workers from injury and illness. Over the decades we have worked together with employers, employees, regulators, legislators, inventors and more to develop programs and systems that prevent work injuries and illnesses. We are celebrating the positive strides made over the decades and looking to the future," Chesapeake Chapter President Mike Wolf said. "Unlike in 1911, I am pleased that today the safety and health profession has become a major part of the fabric of business in our economy."
Today, occupational safety and health is a key component to a successful company's business plan; the occupational safety, health and environmental (SH&E) profession continues to grow and was recently listed in the top half of the Money Magazine's Top 50 Jobs in America list; ASSE's members are located worldwide with 151 chapters, 35 sections and 60 student sections; a scholarship program for students and research; is secretariat for several American National Standards Institute (ANSI) committees and projects; serves as the Administrator for the U.S. Technical Advisory Groups (TAG) to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO); and provides technical publications and professional education programs.
The Maryland Jockey Club is a sporting organization dedicated to thoroughbred horse racing and was founded in Annapolis, MD, in 1743. It is chartered as the oldest sporting organization in North America. After 267 years it remains the corporate name of the company that operates: Pimlico Racecourse, www.pimlico.com , in Baltimore, Maryland, which opened in 1870, home of the Preakness Stakes TM — the middle jewel of the Triple Crown TM; Laurel Park Racecourse, www.laurelpark.com in Laurel, Maryland, which opened in 1911; and, Bowie Race Track in Bowie, Maryland, which opened as a race course in 1914 and ceased operations as a track in 1985. The track now serves as a training center for thoroughbred racehorses.
Founded in 1911, the Des Plaines, IL-based ASSE is the oldest professional safety society and is committed to protecting people, property and the environment. Its more than 34,000 occupational safety, health and environmental professional members lead, manage, supervise, research and consult on safety, health, transportation and environmental issues in all industries, government, labor, healthcare and education.

I sure do hope they finish it this morning and I hope he does not come out looking like Wallace Berry. My BG 104. I hope you had a nice night and your Readings were good/ O saw it is 8 degrees in Boston.Did the nuts go ice fishing? I really will be glad when Russ is done I hate getting up at 4 and 5. He tends to be a baby when he is not feeling well. Any news at all about your Mother? Is she still in the hospital? I need to get to the lawtyer and do the thing I told you about. Give my best to Ed. I will let you know how Russ makes out. Take care. HUGS,Reed
Thinking of you Marie! We had a great Christmas here having our grandson living with us! It was sad to see it end! Jon was sick most the time during the holidays. Today he was back to work. Alex goes back to school next week. He will be having testing done. I know he hasn't been doing good in several subjects in school,but found out they haven't been able to give him the one on one instruction that he needs. Its been great being able to relax with the holiday, and will be hard next week getting back into the routine.
hello thank you . but i can't speak english if you have an admin who can speak french To help me
Good Morning,Marie. Another one of those nights of coughing. He has Mucinex and a prescription cough syrup but still he coughs. Woke me at 4 but I stayed in bed until 5. My BG 106. How were your Readings and night? I hope good. TOPS today. I bet there will be a lot of gains. It will be a Rap session. House mostly undecorated. Just the live tree left. I hope this coughing does not make them postpone Russ's surgery tomorrow. Tom is coming back tonight to take him and will stay until late Sunday so I better do some menu planning. On the wat home from TOPS I have to stop at drugstore to get some medications. Florida plays in the SUGAR BOWL tonight so we MUST watch that. How is Ed? Give him my best. Take good care. I care. HUGS,Reed
Hi Honey....thanks for the wishes. Hope 2013 is alot better for us all too!! Just spent a few days in hospital....Kidney infection, stones, stomach flap herniated. Feeling better. Wondering how I will pay bill and see followup doctors,,,,no insurance at all. Dont qualify for Medi-Cal...nothing. So.....holding on by a thread, but I look at it as a big fat thread!! Wishing you the best and you are in my thoughts often. Take care love ya xo
Good Morning,Marie. I had a good night. Russ's cold seems to be better. Tom is here and caters to him. Right now Tom is at the Gym. I have a pot roast going in my slow cooker. I have only used it 2 times before. The food comes out great so I am going to use it more. BG 110. Did you have a good night? I hope your Readings were good and not all over the place. I doubt we will wait to see the ball drop as tomorrow is a Holy Day of Obligation and we will go to the 9AM Mass. How is Ed give him my best. How much snow did you get? I bet it was pretty around the lake. Happy New year to you and ED. I hope the year 2013 will be a good year for us all. HUGS,POPS
Thanks for the spice link Marie. I am starting to make my own rubs and need a good source for bulk spices. All the various peppers are intriguing. My late wife was a New Mexican cooking aficionado and we used to special order various varieties of chilies and grow them in our garden. Have a wonderful new year!
Marie....no worries! Just buy 2 packages of frozen ready to go pie pastry. I think there's 2 per pack. Use one shell for the top pastry. You'll need 2 packages, as the store bought kind is a smaller pie.
Good Morning,Marie. I was having a wonderful sleep when WHAM thunder and heavy,heavy rain. Tom did not run too miserable. But I was good I gave him his lumberjack breakfast any way. BG 112 high for me candy. I hope you had a good night and your Readings were good. Glad Kathy home. Do not like to hear she has to be on COUMADAN. They changed Russ's nose procedure to Thursday. Then the time. Now it is at 11. He will be so happy to get that over with. Going grocery shopping soon. Tom will be here longer so have to plan my menu. Did you get much snow? Some places did. The visitors who were going to drop in decided not to. Glad I did not plan anything. Give my best to Ed and enjoy the day. HUGS,Reed
Thanks :)
They say you can tell a lot about a person by the friends they keep. Thank you for the friend invite, I'm proud to count you as one.
Thanks Marie for the personalized welcome.. Namaste it is then! :)
I had a very very wonderful Christmas day Marie. Thank you so much for the hugs...needed that :) I miss tiny feet going around the house...Somehow sometimes I thought I still feel her around too. Sigh...oh well... I still got her a toy and marshmallows treats for Christmas.
How was your holidays? How is dear Ed? You guys didnt have any problems with blood sugar, now did you? Ooooh! Food is so hard to resist these season! My husband I are leaving headed for south today...will be back on the 30th. I still have internet access, thanks to my geek hubby.

Special thanks to The Girl from New York and Fraulein N for creating a succinct description.
Right now the above commercial is running with a tagline touting this as the season to get engaged. It's the end of the world, y'all, if you don't get engaged this holiday season then you'll never get the chance! Better become affianced before it all goes kablooey. Then you can say, "At least I have a fiance/e" as meteors rain up from the sea and a shoal of giant space squid descend upon the earth to rend mankind to pieces with their sharp beaks and drown us in vast seas of toxic, cosmic ink. The end of the world won't stop the plans of the 'Zillas listed below:
1. Single Bridezilla - Has a full wedding planned sans a groom.
2. The WAITING thread at the Weddingbee - "For future brides and grooms who have yet to get engaged". The holiday engagement frenzy has begun. Those dates? Desired wedding dates.
3. The Waiting Whine over at Huffpo.
4. Bullying Bridezillas - because once you've WAITED FOR SO LONG and WORKED SO HARD, one day isn't enough and you need to spread the love.

***WELCOME TO WONDERland!!!***
1989 & 1997
The UNOFFICIAL Kannapolis Football Website, WONDERland, USA.
This site is dedicated to the coaches, players, and fans, who over the years, have made WONDER Football what it is today.
Wonder Football is a Tradition for my Wife and I. I can honestly say that we haven't missed more than 6 or 7 games in 47 years through 2009. Everything changed for me in 2010. I was diagnosed with cancer in April. I have been in and out of the hospital at Northeast and Wake Forest ever since. I had to miss most of the 2010 season. I have had what they call a stem cell transplant. Hopefully, this will work, but it's going to take some time to get back to where I was before the cancer and keep check and pray that the cancer doesn't come back. Still when we can..... We really look forward to Friday nights in the Fall and sitting on the Hill. I graduated in 1963, my Wife in 1966. We have 3 sons, two that graduated in 1987 and 1989, and 1 who graduated in 2004.
A.L. Brown, was opened, in 1952. This made the old high school, know as Cannon High, the Junior High, which held the 8th and 9th grades. I personally went to Centerview Elementary School for 6 yrs., then to Aycock, which held all the 7th grades at that time, on to Cannon Junior High for 8th and 9th grades, then to A.L. Brown High School for grades 10-12, as I said, graduating in 1963. Centerview has been long gone, it was closed in June 1960 and burned to the ground 12 years later in the spring of 1972. Cannon Jr. High burned down too. I don't remember the year but I got over there about the time they got it put out. It was so cold the fireman had trouble keeping the water from freezing. Lot of things to remember about the old days.
Since that time, many new elementary schools have opened, along with the
new 2005 Kannapolis Middle School. Now it's kindergarten, elementary school, Kannapolis Intermediate School( (which will have the 5th and 6th grades) and the new middle school (7th and 8th grades), with the High School having the 9th through the 12th. Time sure does change things, but WONDER Football will go on and on!
BTW, A.L. Brown turns 61 yrs. old as of the year 2013. Take a Tour in the History section, then go through the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, etc. Take a look in the photo albums with lot's of photos. Look at how Kannapolis Memorial Stadium came about. Lot's of other information that might interest you.
Also, I offer my apologies to the hundreds of people left out. If you will e-mail me with information, I will try to include it. I personally know that each and everyone is important to the team. GOD Bless All You WONDERS!!!!
A.L. Brown Alma Mater
Hail Our Alma Mater
Brown High is the School
Fighting Spirit, Courage, Brave,
Win Our Loyalty
Long Thy Praises In Our Hearts,
Ever Will Ring True,
Love, Friendship, Knowledge Dwell In Our Memory.

Corning Inc. (GLW) agreed to pay the federal government a $5.65 million settlement, to resolve allegations that it knowingly presented false claims to the United States for lab-research products sold to federal agencies, the U.S. Department of Justice said.
The settlement involves a contract entered into in 2005 by Corning, a maker of television-screen glass and other glass and ceramic components, to sell laboratory-research products to federal government entities through the General Services Administration's Multiple Award Schedules program.
The United States alleged that it received lower discounts than some of Corning's commercial customers and ultimately paid far more than it should have for Corning products, as Corning didn't provide the GSA with complete and current information on its commercial sales practices and discounts.
A Corning representative wasn't immediately available for comment.
The settlement resolves a lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia by Kevin Jones, a former Corning life sciences sales representative, under the whistleblower provisions of the False Claims Act. Under the act, private citizens may bring suit for false claims on behalf of the United States and share in any recovery obtained by the government.
Mr. Jones will receive $904,000 as his share of the government's recovery.
In January, Corning said its fourth-quarter earnings fell 42% as it reported higher charges related to restructuring, impairment and other items, which masked a jump in revenue.
Shares were up 10 cents at $12.76. The stock is up 1.8% over the past three months.

When Terry Semel joined Yahoo as chairman and CEO in May 2001, he left behind the investment firm he started, Windsor Media. According to a report from paidContent.org, Semel is reviving that company, after losing his job as CEO in June 2007. Semel still sits on Yahoo's board of directors as non-executive chairman.
He's reportedly taking a couple of Yahoo execs with him: Drew Buckley, who headed Yahoo Originals, and Jeff Karish, head of media strategy. It remains to be seen how Windsor Media will take shape, either as an investment firm or media company.
