Ernestine Cornelius honored for district leadership in Home Missions Department
By Mark Wineka
SALISBURY — This time, Ernestine Avery Cornelius was queen for the day.
Friends and family gathered Aug. 23 at the Olive Garden to honor Cornelius, mostly for her successful work as Salisbury District president of the Home Missions Department in the Western N.C. Conference of the AME Zion Church.
The Home Missions Department aids churches in need of repair. Cornelius-inspired fund-raising efforts include the district's Four Seasons Dinner, held each year at the Salisbury Civic Center.
The crowning of queens is one way the conference recognizes individual fund-raising efforts in a district.
Under Cornelius' leadership, the Salisbury District has produced more queens (and a king) than any other district in the conference, including a queen crowned in all three categories in 2010, when $40,000 combined was raised.
The Western North Carolina Conference is composed of six districts, of which the 17-church Salisbury District is the smallest.
"As a result of Mrs. Cornelius' innovative ideas and the hard work of 17 local presidents, many churches throughout the Western North Carolina Conference have been able to expand, repair or renovate their edifice," said Marian W. Harris, Home Missions president for Sandy Ridge AME Zion Church in Landis.
"... Mrs. Cornelius is always busy working for the Lord."
Harris and other dinner guests at the Olive Garden presented Cornelius with a trophy, tiara, 18 yellow roses and the dinner to make her feel like one of the many fund-raising queens who have been crowned during her service as district president.
Cornelius is busy in many other capacities for the Salisbury District, the Western North Carolina Conference and her church in Troutman.
At Zion Wesley AME Zion, where her husband of 39 years, Rudolph, is pastor, Cornelius is Christian education director, a deaconess and vice president of the Women's Home and Overseas Missionary Society.
She teaches children and youth Sunday School, often decorates the fellowship hall at her own expense and designs and prints the church bulletins for Sundays and special events.
On the district level, besides her role with the Home Missions Department, she is director, financial secretary and devotional leader for the Christian Education Department.
On the conference level, Cornelius serves on the Financial Committee and formerly served on the Hospitality Committee.
She is originally from Cleveland in Rowan County.
"There are very few adults who were raised in the Cleveland community that can say they have not eaten at Mrs. Cornelius' dinner table or spent a night or two on her floor," Harris says. "She does not believe in seeing anyone hungry or homeless, regardless of age, gender or race."
Cornelius works in the kitchen every Wednesday at the Rowan Helping Ministries shelter, preparing lunches for clients.
"Mrs. Cornelius firmly believes that if God has blessed you, then it is your duty to be a blessing to others," Harris says.

Longtime readers of Above the Law will recall the colorful figure of Shanetta Cutlar. She was a high-powered Department of Justice lawyer who was known for her high-handed treatment of DOJ subordinates and colleagues.
(Read the blockquote in this post to get a sense of her antics, or read this juicy letter to former Deputy Attorney General Paul McNulty, in which ex-Cutlar underling Ty Clevenger describes the "atmosphere of fear and paranoia" created by Shanetta.)
We haven't covered Shanetta Cutlar since March 2010, when she stepped down from her post as chief of the Special Litigation Section ("SPL"). After she left SPL, she took a post in the Bureau of Justice Assistance, part of the Office of Justice Programs ("OJP"). This move was interpreted by some DOJ insiders as a form of exile for the controversial Cutlar.
We haven't heard anything about her since her move to OJP — until now….

The information provided here is meant to give you a general idea about each of the medications listed below. Only the most general side effects are included. Ask your doctor if you need to take any special precautions. Use each of these medications only as recommended by your doctor and according to the instructions provided. If you have further questions about usage or side effects, contact your doctor.
There are a variety of medications available to treat the pain and inflammation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In some cases, the medications are used in combination.
You may have to try different medications before you find the one that works best for you with the least number of side effects.
Prescription Medications
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
- Naproxen (Naprosyn, Anaprox, Aleve)
- Ketoprofen (Orudis)
- Ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil, Nuprin)
- Indomethacin (Indocin)
- Sulindac (Clinoril)
- Meclofenamate (Meclomen)
- Ketorolac (Toradol)
- Piroxicam (Feldene)
- Diclofenac sodium (Voltaren, Cataflam)
Cyclooxgenase-2 or COX-2 inhibitors
- Celecoxib (Celebrex)
- Meloxicam (Mobic)
Nonbiologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs)
- Azathioprine (Imuran)
- Cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan)
- Cyclosporin
- D-penicillamine (Depen)
- Hydroxychloroquine sulfate (Plaquenil)
- Leflunomide (Arava)
- Methotrexate (Rheumatrex, Trexall )
- Sulfasalazine (Azulfidine)
Biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs)
- TNF-inhibitors
- Interleukin-1 receptor blockers
- Biologic response modifier and disease-modifying antirheumatic drug
- Monoclonal antibody
- Interleukin-6 receptor antagonist
- Prednisone (Deltasone, Cortan)
- Methylprednisolone (Medrol)
Over the counter Medications
- Acetaminophen
- Capsaicin cream (Zostrix)
Prescription Medications
Common names include:
- Naproxen (Naprosyn, Anaprox, Aleve)
- Ketoprofen (Orudis)
- Ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil, Nuprin)
- Indomethacin (Indocin)
- Sulindac (Clinoril)
- Meclofenamate (Meclomen)
- Ketorolac (Toradol)
- Piroxicam (Feldene)
- Diclofenac sodium (Voltaren)
Although some NSAIDs are available as over the counter medications, you may still be given a prescription in order to obtain a higher dosage. NSAIDs help decrease inflammation, swelling, and joint pain.
Be sure to take NSAIDs with food to decrease the chance of stomach irritation.
Drinking alcoholic beverages or taking other NSAIDs, COX-2 inhibitors, aspirin, or steroids while you are already using an NSAID can increase your risk of side effects.
Possible side effects include:
- Stomach upset
- Stomach ulcers
- Kidney damage
- Liver inflammation
- Confusion or lightheadedness
- Severe allergic reaction (hives, difficulty breathing, swelling around the eyes)
- Increased risk of bleeding—always inform your doctors that you're taking an NSAID before having any medical or dental procedures or surgeries
- Asthma
- Possible increased risk of heart attack
Common names include:
- Celecoxib (Celebrex)
- Meloxicam (Mobic)
COX-2 inhibitors work in a way similar to NSAIDs, helping to decrease inflammation, swelling, and joint pain. The way the medications do this allows them to work without causing the same degree of stomach irritation. In particular, COX-2 inhibitors cause far fewer stomach ulcers than do NSAIDs. But because there is an increased risk of heart attacks and strokes associated with these medications, doctors generally reserve them for use in people who cannot take traditional NSAIDS and who have no risk factors for cardiac disease.
Drinking alcoholic beverages or taking NSAIDs, aspirin, or steroids while you are using a COX-2 inhibitor can increase your risk of side effects.
Possible side effects include:
- Stomach upset
- Liver inflammation
- Confusion
- Severe allergic reaction (hives, difficulty breathing, swelling around the eyes)
- Kidney disease
- Congestive heart failure
- Asthma
Common names include:
- D-penicillamine (Cuprimine, Depen)
- Hydroxychloroquine sulfate ( Plaquenil )
- Methotrexate (Rheumatrex)
- Cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan)
- Cyclosporine
- Azathioprine (Imuran)
- Leflunomide (Arava)
These drugs are given in an effort to slow or halt the progression of rheumatoid arthritis. They are all immunosuppressive agents. Because rheumatoid arthritis is believed to be caused by an overactive immune system, it is hoped that calming the immune system's activity will slow the progression of rheumatoid arthritis.
Possible side effects include:
- Nausea
- Diarrhea
- Liver inflammation
- Bladder inflammation
- Kidney damage
- Nerve damage
- High blood pressure
- Infections
- Lung inflammation
- Muscle and nerve inflammation
Common names include:
- Prednisone (Deltasone, Cortan)
- Methylprednisolone (Medrol)
Corticosteroids are very potent anti-inflammatory agents and are given to reduce swelling, inflammation, and joint pain.
Possible side effects for short-term use (about three weeks or less) include:
- Difficulty sleeping
- Increased appetite
- Mood swings, increased emotionality
- Increases in blood pressure
- Increased blood sugar (especially in people with diabetes)
Possible side effects for long-term use (about three weeks or longer) include:
- Weakening of the immune system and an increased risk of developing infections
- Osteoporosis
- Cataracts
- Glaucoma
- Indigestion, gastritis
Common names include:
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-inhibitors, such as:
- Etanercept (Enbrel)—restricted in the US
- Infliximab (Remicade)
- Adalimumab (Humira)
- Golimumab (Simponi)
- Certolizumab (Cimzia)
- Interleukin-1 receptor inhibitors—Anakinra (Kineret)
- Biologic response modifier and disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD)—Abatacept (Orencia)
- Monoclonal antibody—Rituximab (Rituxan)
- Interleukin-6 receptor antagonist—Tocilizumab (Actemra)
These medications are given when other drugs haven't worked. Etanercept, adalimumab, and anakinra are given by injection. Infliximab, orencia, and rituximab are given by IV infusions. They can help decrease the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. They may also increase your risk of contracting infections. You need to inform your healthcare provider that you are taking these medications before you get any immunizations. Also TNF-inhibitors can increase the risk of Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and other types of cancer in children and adolescents.
Before you start taking any of these medications, you will need a tuberculosis (TB) test to make sure you do not have a hidden case of tuberculosis. You will need to have your heart monitored while you take this medication. Contact your healthcare provider immediately if you develop any of the following symptoms after receiving one of these medications:
- Chest pain
- Difficulty breathing
- Fever and chills
- Productive cough
- Itching
- Hives
- Flushed face
- Rashes
- Confusion
- Weakness
- Injection site reactions
Over the counter Medications
Acetaminophen can be helpful in relieving some of the pain associated with rheumatoid arthritis. Do not take a larger dose than is recommended by your healthcare provider. Do not drink alcoholic beverages while you are taking acetaminophen.
Common brand name: Zostrix
Capsaicin cream is rubbed on the skin of an affected joint to relieve the pain and inflammation of rheumatoid arthritis.
It is made using the active ingredient of hot chili peppers. Some people prefer to wear rubber gloves while applying the cream. If you do not, be sure to wash your hands very thoroughly with soap and water after using the cream. Be very careful not to get the cream near your eyes, as it will burn and sting. If you do get some in your eyes, flush them thoroughly with cool water.
Possible side effects include burning, stinging, or warm sensation when first applied to the skin.
Special Considerations
If you are taking medications, follow these general guidelines:
- Take your medication as directed. Do not change the amount or the schedule.
- Do not stop taking them without talking to your doctor.
- Do not share them.
- Know what the results and side effects may be. Report them to your doctor.
- Some drugs can be dangerous when mixed. Talk to a doctor or pharmacist if you are taking more than one drug. This includes over the counter medications and herb or dietary supplements.
- Plan ahead for refills so you do not run out.

"In April, we had a goal of 100 percent — to rehire our limited contract and many displaced employees, and I'm very proud to say working with my team and [Superintendent John Harper], that we have 100 percent. We're all rehired ... and so all of our limited contracts are back on staff for next year," Defnall said during Monday's work session. "Through attrition, we have to date 54 retirees and that doesn't count any resignations, people leaving, what have you, so that of course has been a big factor in allowing us to do that and we're working hard to promote moves within as well."
Harper explained while there is a reduction in force this year, the reduction is based on student population and is not a budget reduction.
"What has happened to us is we've lost student population, so with student population you lose staff," Harper said. "We've had two or three schools that have lost some teachers, and that also figured into being able to place some of those limited contract teachers. It's not a budget reduction in force, it's a population reduction which resulted in a reduction in force, and that's an important difference."
Harper said he appreciates the work of the system's human resources department in finding job slots for teachers looking to maintain employment.
"Fortunately, we have a fantastic HR department that has worked very hard with the principals to look at those teachers that have retired and left," Harper said. "Certainly every year we have teachers that come on into our school system after the year starts and they're what's called 'limited contract' teachers and so through that department with the resignations or leaves that we've had, our HR department was able to move those limited contract people into positions in Bartow County so they can continue employment with us."
In April, Defnall announced the human resources department had initially achieved a 100 percent placement rate for elementary school teachers but was seeking 100 percent teacher employment for FY 2014.
In other school news, Chief Financial Advisor Todd Hooper said the finance department is getting closer to presenting a tentative proposed budget to the board.
"The budget is pretty well near completion, we're waiting on some final numbers that will have a major impact on our budget," Hooper said. "This Thursday, the [Georgia] Department of Community Health is supposed to release the expected [insurance] premium increases that we possibly may experience next March, and that's a big number."
Since 2011, The Daily Tribune News has reported on the growing cost of insurance premiums to the local boards of education. In March, Hooper reported under the current FY 2013 state budget the cost of insurance premiums for certified staff would increase from $914 to $937 a month.
"That doesn't sound like much for the remainder of the year, but it amounts to $90,000, roughly," Hooper previously said. "That's about a teacher and a half, if you were to put a face on it. These are not just numbers, these are faces at this point."
The board will hold its regular business session Monday, May 20, at 6 p.m. in the central office boardroom.

Disruption is a theory of innovation that explains how particular types of new products and services come to achieve success or even dominance, often at the expense of once-powerful incumbents. From the rise of the telephone in the late 19th century to automobiles for the masses in the 1920s to restaurant meals available to all in the 1950s to Intel in the 1970s, personal computers in the 1980s, low cost airlines in the 1990s and social media sites today – disruption captures the essence of the "creative destruction" that has long characterized modern American capitalism.
Disruption was first explained by Clayton M. Christensen in the bestseller, The Innovator's Dilemma. In 2003, Christensen and coauthor Michael E. Raynor teamed up to deliver The Innovator's Solution, a blueprint for understanding and managing the forces that influence disruption so that companies can shape high-octane business plans to create disruptive growth.
But for all this, the question remained: does disruption really work? Can disruption get beyond merely explaining the past and actually make it possible for any manager to more accurately predict the future?
Based on Raynor's research, the answer, it turns out, is "yes." In The Innovator's Manifesto, Raynor is back with specific data and analysis demonstrating that disruption has predictive power. In addition, Raynor lays bare the causal mechanisms of disruption in ways that allow the newcomer to these ideas to understand and apply them quickly and successfully, even as Raynor brings new clarity and insight to the most conscientious students of disruption.

IRS Releases Final Regulations and Interim Guidance on Medical Device Excise Tax
On December 7, 2012, the U.S. Treasury Department published Final Regulations and additional interim guidance under Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") section 4191 relating to the medical device excise tax ("MDET") that was enacted as part of the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, in conjunction with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Effective January 1, 2013, IRC §4191 imposes a 2.3% excise tax on sales of certain medical devices by the manufacturer, producer, or importer of the device. The Final Regulations generally adopt the guidance in the proposed regulations issued on February 7, 2012, but provide greater certainty with respect to the types of devices that are subject to the MDET and clarification on the retail exemption and other exemptions.

While all of these seem delicious, I especially love both the jar ideas. Also, thank you for introducing me to microwave chips -- I prefer British-style oven chips myself for the fluffy-in-crisp texture, but there's many a family member who will be overjoyed to see chips back on the health(ier)-food menu!
I borrowed a dehydrator from a friend and after playing with it I decided to buy my own. I will be making home made jerky and home made fruit leather for the kids' lunches, good way to use extra fruit that I may be about to throw away.
The Farmer's Lunch Sandwich looks delicious! Thank you for this post; my daughter heads off to Kindergarten soon and I feel like I really want her lunches to be AWESOME.
These do all look healthy and delicious. However, my 5th grade son would probably die if I sent him in with whole wheat pasta and wilted chard. There's only so much obvious difference many kids can stand apparently, and he likes to have lunches like a lot of the other kids. So while I do healthy lunches, they don't look so different, lol.
My mother in law sent such awesome sandwiches with her sons, they sold them to the other kids. One of their best "customers" ended up a true Foodie and now owns a restaurant that is frequently mentioned in the NY Times........talk about having some big shoes to fill! This list will help! :)
The Pediatric Journal of Medicine released a study that looked at the temperatures of 705 lunches containing at least one perishable item. An hour and a half before lunch, the food was measured with a temperature gun. Only 1.6% of items were at a safe temperature range.
With one icepack, only 14 were at a safe temperature.
@mjs7640: Food is generally considered safe for up to four hours even if the temperature isn't lower than 40 degrees or higher than 140 degrees. Boxed lunches are perfectly safe as long as the food is handled appropriately before using it.
LOL! These lunches look delicious to me -- and to my two daughters -- but without anything on the list like "Cheerios sans milk" or "Peanut butter sandwich with no crusts" I think we're out of luck for my son. I can only dream of a day when he'd try one of these, let alone bring one to school ;-)

MBTA Saves $1.17 Million Using LED Lamps
There are over 2300 signals on the Red, Orange, Green and Blue lines of the MBTA. Up until recently, signals used small incandescent light bulbs that lasted about six weeks; and replacing a signal bulb required two people because of safety requirements for working on a right of way. Replacing incandescent with LED technology that lasts up to 8 years is a logical step. DDP LEDS Solutions designed a direct replacement bulb at a reasonable cost. The MBTA reached their return on investment in only 4-months with a 3-year savings of over $1 million.

Many know that for sheer European romance, nothing beats a ride on the rails, but trains can also often be the most efficient means of getting around.
In addition to high-speed trains, Europe's rail network includes trains running locally and internationally, as well as night trains, scenic trains and InterCity trains – all great options for more leisurely forays in Europe. Night trains offer fares for all budgets and are equipped with sleeping compartments in first class and couchettes in second class. Some of the better known night trains are the Trainhotel Elipsos linking Paris, Madrid, Barcelona, Zurich and Milan, the Riviera night train from Nice to Rome, and the Paris-Germany night train from Paris to Hanover, Berlin, Bremen and Hamburg.
Europe's scenic trains are legendary. In Switzerland, for example, the route followed by the Glacier Express, the Bernina Express and the William Tell reveals shimmering lakes, plunging gorges and snow-capped mountains. Cogwheel railways such as Norway's Flåm Railway meander along magnificent fjords on the Aurlandsfjord and the Nærøyfjord, the narrowest fjord in Europe. There are at least ten more famous routes dotting Europe's landscapes.
Rapid airport-train connections to Europe's cities eliminate the hassle and expense of chasing down a taxi or bus in a busy airport when you are tired and jetlagged after a long flight, and are often less expensive. Some of the major European airports with train-to-city service are Amsterdam Schiphol, Barcelona Prat, Berlin Schoenfeld, Birmingham, Brussels National, Copenhagen, Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Geneva Cointrin, London (Gatwick, Heathrow, Stansted), Malaga, Manchester, Munich Strauss, Paris Charles de Gaulle, Rome Leonardo da Vinci, Stockholm, Stuttgart Echterdingen, Vienna Schwechat and Zurich Kloten.
Besides fast and efficient plane-to-train service, rail travel has many other advantages. If you book your tickets prior to departure, your transportation is secure, yet you also have the flexibility of changing your itinerary at the last minute. Validate your ticket the first time you use it, and voilà, no more standing in line for the rest of the trip! Trains fill up quickly, especially in the summer, so reserving your seats before you depart for Europe is a wise idea.
Rail passes were a wonderful invention 40 years ago and remain so today. From the basic Eurailpass, good for travel all over Europe for up to three months, to the Britrail pass in the UK, rail passes have evolved to suit all schedules and budgets. The extensive network continues to grow as Eastern European countries join the Eurail system.
Rail passes offer enormous flexibility – from single or multi-country passes to rail 'n drive passes and rail/hotel packages. For example, if you wish to flee the bustling streets of Rome for gentler Tuscany and the spontaneity a car affords, purchase a rail 'n ride package, and a rental car will be waiting for you upon your arrival at a quaint station in a hidden-away village.
Check your health insurance policy to be sure you are covered while travelling abroad.
Any electrical device you wish to bring on your trip can be used with the aid of an electrical travel kit.
Consider safeguarding your trip so that you can minimize the financial impact.

Bike Habits: the shoulder check
Bike Habits
Doing it right.
MA state law for cyclists requires that "every bicycle operated upon a way shall be equipped with a braking system to enable the operator to bring the bicycle traveling at a speed of fifteen miles per hour to a smooth, safe stop within thirty feet on a dry, clean, hard, level surface." In the case of a fixed gear bicycle with no lever-operated brakes installed, do the cyclist's legs/direct connection qualify? The lack of definition of brake system makes this a very gray area, no?

He created the Bibliotheca Corviniana, in its day one of Europe's finest libraries. After his death, and especially after the conquest of Buda by the Turks in 1541, the library ...

Sneaker Con was back at it this weekend, this time rolling all the way down to the home of the Eastern Conference Finals in beautiful Miami, Florida. And while there were copious amounts of LeBron sneakers in attendance thanks to the home court advantage, we still got a look at a couple of rare Jordan retros and even some customizations on the latest releases like the "Volt" Jordan Futures. Mix in another strong showing by the fan favorite adidas ZX Flux, and the latest Sneaker Con On-Feet recap may have just topped Chicago's. Get with us after the click for more images and be sure to let us know your favorite pair in the comments section.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Polk Audio 700-LS by Marshall Chase A real standout — but practically invisible Polk's Vanishing® Series 700-LS in-ceiling speaker is designed to stay out of sight and out of mind...until you hear the rich, detailed sound it produces. This high-performance speaker hides away in your ceiling, which means you can enjoy great sound in rooms where regular free-standing speakers are an awkward fit. Advanced 3-way design The secret to the 700-LS's compact cutout size lies in Polk's innovative "Cassini Oval" driver design, which positions an oval-shaped woofer at an angle behind the midrange and tweeter array, in a built-in dual-ported bandpass enclosure. The woofer's increased surface area and rigid cast basket combine for deep musical bass. This speaker also features Polk's own advanced version of the classic "ring radiator" tweeter for smooth, detailed highs, along with a 2-1/2" Dynamic Balance midrange driver, for accurate response across a wide frequency range. Sound-shaping controls A wall distance toggle switch lets you compensate for boominess due to installation near a side wall. You also get a tweeter attenuation switch to help you get balanced sound in rooms with lots of reflective surfaces. Mix and match with Polk's free-standing LSi M speakers Use a pair of 700-LS in-ceiling speakers to listen to music in the den, or add more for a great sounding home theater. Vanishing Series LS speakers are voice-matched to Polk's renowned free-standing LSi M speakers, so you can combine these in-ceiling speakers with in-walls or free-standing speakers and get harmonious results. An optional in-ceiling bracket is recommended for installing the 700-LS speaker in a home with new construction. Got wire? Most speakers don't include any.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Connections Mounting Options Dimensions Features Vanishing Series In-ceiling Speakers: The Polk Audio Vanishing Series in-ceiling loudspeakers feature a precision-engineered, minimally flanged design and Polk's exclusive Sheer-Grille, which protrudes only 7mm from its surroundings. Installing virtually flush in your ceiling, the Polk Audio Vanishing Series in-ceiling loudspeakers offer a one-cut, drop-in installation and rotating cam stabilizing system. The Vanishing LS series in-ceiling speakers are timbre-matched to Polk Audio's flagship LSi and LSiM series loudspeakers for seamless blending from speaker to speaker when you're building a speaker system. Cassini-Oval Woofer: This Polk Audio Vanishing Series 700-LS in-ceiling surround loudspeaker employs a rear-mounted 5" x 7" Dynamic Balance mineral-filled polypropylene Cassini-Oval cone woofer, with rubber surround, for a smooth, consistent frequency response. The oval woofer is mounted at an angle in the enclosure, behind the midrange and tweeter, and ported out the front. 2-1/2" Midrange: The 700-LS has a 2-1/2" Dynamic Balance aerated polypropylene cone midrange. The aerated polypropylene cone is 20% lighter than conventional polypropylene, and 35% lighter than aluminum, to give you clear midrange and high efficiency. Polk Audio's patented Dynamic Balance technology eliminates unwanted resonances. Ring Radiator Tweeter: The 700-LS employs a 3/4" Dynamic Balance ring radiator tweeter for detailed highs and superb imaging. Wall Distance Toggle Switch: If you mount your in-ceiling loudspeakers closer than 2 feet from a side wall, the proximity of the surface can elevate the midbass response between 50 and 200Hz, causing a boomy sound. To compensate, the 700-LS is equipped with the Vanishing Wall Distance Toggle switch, located on the front panel. The filter adjusts the crossover to flatten the response, and tune out the boominess, without sacrificing the deep bass response of the speaker. The switch is labeled "Wall Dist." with two positions: in (<2') and out (>2')." Reflective Room Compensation Control: The Reflective Room Compensation Switch, conveniently located on the front panel, allows you to digitally compensate for harsh reflective surfaces, such as smooth walls, glass windows, and hardwood floors. The filter doesn't merely reduce high frequencies, it simply cuts the level only in the 4-5kHz range where room acoustics most often interfere with performance. The switch is labeled "Room" with two positions: out (normal) and in (reflective). Frequency Response: The overall frequency response of the in-ceiling loudspeaker is 32Hz to 33kHz, and the -3dB frequency response is 45 to 29kHz. Sheer-Grille: The 700-LS features Polk Audio's exclusive wafer-thin Sheer-Grille, a magnetically-secured metal grille that protrudes only 7mm from its surroundings. The Sheer-Grille can be painted to match your décor, making it virtually indistinguishable from its surroundings. The Sheer-Grille has nearly transparent, ultra-small perforations, and is acoustically inert, for dynamic, unimpeded sound and more uniform coverage, even in larger rooms. The grille diameter is 8-1/8. Connections Gold-Plated Spring-Loaded Posts: The in-ceiling loudspeaker has a gold-plated pair of spring-loaded binding posts that can accept up to 12-gauge wire, single- or dual-banana plugs, or pin connectors. Mounting Options Applications: The Polk Audio Vanishing Series 700-LS in-ceiling loudspeaker is designed to be used as part of a hidden two-channel stereo pair or in a 5.1- or 7.1-channel home theater configuration. At only 8-1/8" in diameter, the speaker makes a minimal visual impact. Note: The speaker isn't recommended for installation in high-moisture locations. Security Eyebolt: The speaker has an eyebolt attached to the speaker magnet. This eyebolt is designed to be used as an extra measure of installation security. The majority of the speaker weight should be supported from behind by attaching a wire or hook to the eyebolt and to the ceiling joists. Rotating Cam System: The Polk Audio in-ceiling loudspeakers utilize a rotating cam system to ensure a secure, vibration-free installation. Each 700-LS has 4 rotating cams to hold the speaker in place. The cams can be tightened from the front panel with a Phillips-head screwdriver. Installation: The 700-LS can be installed in new or existing construction: Existing Construction: In existing ceilings, use the included cardboard template for one-cut, drop-in simplicity. Achieve secure, vibration-free efficiency with a simple turn of Polk's Rotating Cam system (4 rotating cams). New Construction: The optional PB SC50 pre-construction brackets should be used for new-build or open-wall retro-fitting.

Haven't had these speakers in use for too long now but... I am SO HAPPY I added them to my overall system. They are located in my ceiling, slightly in front of main listening area. Also have front and rears and a sub. And while the fronts handle and deliver the majority of my listening 'payload' - I can't get over how much more dynamic the overall system sounds with these Polks. I am VERY pleased with them and would indeed recommend them. Pros: Easy to install. GREAT dynamic sound. Cons: A bit costly but... I would say worth the price. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Excellent sound, easy installation, nice clean look. Better with music than I anticipated. Would buy again. Crutchfield team was great to work with in helping me understand the options within my budget, and with consideration for the components I already had with my system. Pros: Sound, installation, and level of service from the Crutchfield consultants. Cons: Best sound requires volume level a little louder than I prefer. Tweeter does not have a directional adjustment. Did not intend to paint the covers - but that the type included which does impact the sound. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

That's right — the freezer can be like the best friend of all, one who drops off a pot of soup on an evening you're not feeling well, or a dish of pasta after a busy day of work, when you really don't feel like cooking. Of course, that friend is really you, doing a little extra work now so you can have an easy meal later. There are so many recipes that can make a little extra to be squirreled away in the freezer for a later time. These little packages from the past are a huge gift to your future self, setting a nourishing table before you at times when you are busy, stressed, and in need of a quick fix.
I experienced this recently myself, in a very busy week when dinner was the last thing on my mind, I remembered a container of chicken stew in the freezer. Defrost, heat, plate up with a quick salad and presto! Happiness all round. Be a good friend to yourself and create that kind of happiness with one of these 15 recipes this week — good recipes to cook, double, and freeze.
Of course, the freezer's doesn't end with full meals. I also like to freeze meal building blocks, like pesto, chicken stock, and vegetable broth.
But there's really nothing to beat your very own frozen meal — hearty, homemade, and happy-making.

10 Tips from the Resourceful Kitchen

Of course chili is high on that list, and pasta sauce. I will fry up three - five pounds of ground meat with 4-6 chopped onions. From that I make tacos, pasta sauce, Summer Beef and Rice Casserole (Everyday Foods), vegetable beef soup. But I am going to give a couple of these and try. They look very yummy.
Pierogies! I make potato and apple ones from scratch and then freeze them for later. I also make homemade frozen veggie burgers so I can grab a couple if I'm headed to a cookout. Sometimes there's also some veggie chili made with barley to give it a "meaty" texture or a batch of lentil soup but those two items are quite the commodity and are eaten shortly after they're frozen.
I really have to comment on the use of veal. Is there not a more ethical choice? I know, as a vegan, I feel all choices are problematic, but veal is, in my opinion, particularly cruel. I don't wish to upset anyone, but I really needed to get that off my chest.
There is nothing terrible about veal. Veal = younger animal. It doesn't necessarily mean abused, crated, or otherwise mistreated, all of which are products I would avoid. Plenty of ethical producers of veal out there.
I make a lot of stuff for the freezer and have a reputation among my family and friends as the one who can always deliver a meal at the last minute to someone who needs one! I do lots of bolognese sauce as well as meatballs, marinara, sloppy joes, pulled pork, and chicken taco filling (used for tacos, nachos, enchiladas, etc). I put chicken breasts in marinade and freeze, grilling them when they are thawed (they marinate as you thaw, just don't let them go too long). I know some people don't like the texture of pasta or rice when it's been frozen but I don't mind it so I freeze pasta and rice casseroles too like mostaccioli, chicken and rice, macaroni and cheese, tetrazzini, etc. I shred baked potatoes (let them sit in the fridge till cool to firm up before shredding), then freeze spread out on a sheet before condensing it into a bag for quick hashbrowns. I buy the nice grassfed beef when it's on sale and shape it into hamburger patties ready to be grilled (if they're thin you can even cook them from frozen, though they cook more evenly if they're defrosted). I make lots of whole grain, protein packed muffins and freeze them, pulling out a few to use for breakfasts or midday snacks. And it's not something I cook, but I also buy my favorite baguettes and cut them into 2 or 3 pieces, wrap well in foil, and freeze. Then when I want a side of bread with dinner I just pull it out and stick it, frozen and wrapped in foil, into an oven. 20-30 min later it's hot and crusty. I do have a house with a deep freeze in the basement so I have the luxury of more space, but even when I had a tiny apartment freezer I usually had at least 2-4 meals in there ready to go.
Love this article. I always keep left over tomato sauce in tiny containers, cut parsley and good bread (a French thing). I make double recipe of chili, soups, sauteed mushrooms, caramelized onions, beans, pastry dough, apple sauce or anything that is time consuming. I use Bonne Maman jam containers to store everything in small quantities.
I LOVE having food in the freezer for a rainy (or lazy, or busy) day. I love making food to freeze when I've got some spare kitchen time. Right now I've got Swiss chard pesto, chickpea cutlets, slow-roasted tomatoes, triple lentil chili, apple tomato soup, and homemade hot dog buns. In the fall and winter months particularly, I always have one or two chilis in there.
i always make large batches of soup and freeze extra servings for busy evenings. But my favorite thing to have in the freezer? Egg rolls (my mom's recipe). They crisp up perfectly in the oven, and add a little fun to a simple dinner of sauteed greens and rice, stir fry, what have you. Or they dress up an otherwise humdrum delivery order... :)
I love freezing empanadas / hand pies / anything contained by a crust in individual portions. It's so nice to be able to pull out one or two and throw them in the oven, and it's usually as much of a pain to make a bunch as it is to make one serving's worth.
I've never had veal, and looked up some info about it when I glanced at Peawry's comment. So so sad, and totally unnecessary. :( We know that animals at least have some understanding of loss, I'm sure removing a calf from its mother isn't the greatest for the mothers well-being. Also, there's no check on whether farmers are using antibiotics solely for prevention of disease...
In other news....
bite-sized spanikopita sounds fantastic, it's on my list! I like to make a lot of lentil soup and freeze some, it freezes really well. I've got cauliflower fritters in the freezer, but haven't pulled any out yet. A hearty bolognese sauce is at the top of my list but Sundays are so lazy, walking from the living room to kitchen seems difficult.
If you don't prefer to cook with veal, please read the recipe. Ground chicken thighs are suggested as an substitute.
@Mirabella, there are good and bad ways to wean calves, obviously. But it's necessary at a certain point, because cows need time to recover from the toll that lactation takes on their bodies before they have another calf. The way my parents do it is to separate the calves and cows into separate but adjacent paddocks, so they can see and hear each other for a few days until they get over the separation. I've heard of some people even leaving a few cows or heifers without nursing calves in with the weaning calves as "babysitters", so they don't feel so cut off from the herd. Then, we let them back in with the rest of the herd, and they go back to grazing together. We don't typically sell calves until they're quite a bit older. Honestly, it's all a bit like weaning baby humans, ha. Animal husbandry doesn't always have to be cruel.
Big fan of batch cooking here in particular:
-brown rice
-pasta sauce
-eggplant curry
-vegetarian chilli
-turkey patties
-veg soup
I cook them in advance (often over a weekend) then store in containers or ziplock bags (which I wash and reuse). Saves a lot of time and the temptation of ordering delivery pizza!
@Peawry: No animals reach true adulthood before being slaughtered for meat. While veal may be more subject to certain living conditions than others, it's absolutely worth recognizing how young chickens, steer, and hogs are at slaughter.
I have been a vegetarian for 20 years (and that won't change), but have met farmers truly raising veal humanely; they pointed out the relative youth of all animals to me before turning into one's dinner, and I found it a very important point for those debating the relative pros and cons of one type of meat product over another.
It's all about education oneself completely about meat production, getting to know local, humane sources of meats and deciding from there what's best for you.
Hi, this is peawry again. I want to thank everyone for calm and reasoned discourse. Very much appreciated. I am still very saddened however, by the use of veal. I am also, I will point out, an EXTREMELY sensitive vegan. I think I should be a JAIN. Lol. Have a great day, evryone.
I'm lucky enough to have not only a good-sized freezer on my fridge, but also a stand-alone in the garage. I freeze individually portioned chicken breasts, pork loin chops, lamb chops and steaks when meat is on sale. I'll also freeze 2 – 2½ pound pork loin roasts for the slow cooker. Spaghetti sauce, beef stew and chicken broth are also in there, as are large packs of frozen veggies that I break down into "dinner for 2" sized packs in Zip-Loc vacuum bags. Some of the broth is in frozen in ice cube trays for the times when you just need a bit, and some is frozen in 1 and 2 cup containers.
One of our favorite things to grab out of the freezer is soboro. I found the recipe I use about 35 years ago in the New York Times. It originally called for ground veal. The first time I cook something I'll follow the recipe, but we found the veal rubbery and MUCH prefer ground turkey for this. The recipe was for 1 pound of meat, and this is one of those wondrous recipes where you can multiply everything evenly. Is a 5 pound pack of ground turkey on sale? Just multiply everything by 5. The flavor balance stays the same. Here's the recipe:
The original recipe called for 1 Tbsp of fresh grated ginger juice (OH, yeah — I keep ginger in the freezer too) but we prefer more, up to 2 Tbsp. When reheating either nuke it, or heat slowly in a pan with a Tbsp or 2 of water.
I love this post. Cook once, eat twice (or even thrice!) is the motto around my house. Being mostly vegetarian is a big help, since my husband and i prepare lots of beany, stewy, pasta-y dishes that beg to be doubled and halved for freezing. Thanks for the great recipes!
It is really nice to see a discussion about a sensitive issue such as veal production handled in such a mature, respectful manner. Often people can get so mean when a topic they feel strongly about is brought up in this type of forum and it is really wonderful to see people acting like adults here.
WOW!All amazing links of recipes!I like eating and cooking meat,and the all the meat recipes sounds great!The veal meatballs in red wine sauce is my favorite!I definitely wanna try!
Andreanna - seconded :) Was getting ready to scroll past rude comments, and there were none :) Love it!
Made the Braised Coconut Spinach & Chickpeas with Lemon last night. Easy enough to make on a Monday and very very tasty. The sundried tomatoes add a nice rich flavor, but i added a bit of white truffle salt to give it even more depth. Definitely makes my "do again" recipe list.

Yummmmmmmmmmy recipes! I like buying whole chickens on special, roasting and then shredding the chicken up, and freezing up portions - ie one big container for stir fries, one big one for pasta, and a couple of small ones for salads/sandwiches. Takes minutes to defrost, and if you only need to make rice and steam some veges for dinner, then it is dinner in 20mins tops (incorporating time to peel and wash veges and boil water).
This post is a great compilation of some wonderful recipes!
Others that have become my freezer staples...
1. French Ratatouille - http://www.thekitchn.com/one-pot-recipe-easy-french-ratatouille-recipes-from-the-kitchn-106669. I often make this for new Mom's since it contains everything for a balanced meal (veggies + protein), is delish and freezes well
2. Addictive Sweet Potato Burritos http://allrecipes.com/recipe/addictive-sweet-potato-burritos/ These are amazing, great flavor. I freeze them individually in foil. Just pop in oven at 350 for 20 min.
3, Homemade butternut squash ravioli - I wing this recipe. After I prepare the raviolis I lay them in a heavily floured cookie sheet and place overnight in the freezer. The next day I slide them in a zip lock bag.

WBB: Pride Powers Past Drexel
Courtesy: Hofstra Athletic Communications
Release: 02/14/2013
Hempstead, N.Y. - Senior forward Shante Evans had her 15th double-double of the season with 14 points and 13 rebounds and Anma Onyeuku posted a career-best 15 rebounds to pace Hofstra in a 53-43 Colonial Athletic Association win over Drexel Thursday afternoon at the Mack Sports Complex.
Hofstra improved to 12-11 on the season, its first time over the .500 mark since winning its season opener, and is now 8-4 in the CAA. Drexel fell to 16-7 overall and 9-3 in the CAA, and saw its three-game winning streak halted.
The two teams played a tightly contested first half for the first seven minutes as neither team led by more than three. But Evans gave Hofstra the lead for good, 11-10 with a layup with 13:32 to play. That started a half-closing 16-4 run that gave the Pride a 25-14 lead at intermission. The 14 points allowed by the Pride was the fewest surrendered in a half this season, besting the 16 points allowed to Drexel in the first meeting in Philadelphia. Five different players scored for the Pride in the run, led by seven points from Evans.
The Pride defense held the Dragons without a field goal for the final 10:31 as Drexel closed out the half by missing their final 14 shots. For the half Drexel was just 5-for-28 (17.9 percent) from the field.
The second half saw Hofstra build the lead to 13 points on two occasions, the second on Andreana Thomas' three-pointer 2:54 into the half for a 32-19 lead, before Drexel made a mini-run to pull within seven with 14:15 to play. The 6-0 run featured four points from Renee Johnson-Allen. But Hofstra responded with a 10-0 run over the next 3:57 to extend to a 17-point lead, 42-25, with 10 minutes to play in the game.
An 8-3 run by the Dragons, which featured four points apiece from Taylor Wootton and Hollie Mershon, cut the Hofstra lead to 12, 45-33, with 5:56 to play. But the Pride used a 6-1 run over the next 3:17 to build the lead back up to 17, 51-34, on Alexis Carter's two free throws with 2:39 left to play. The Dragons would end the game on a 9-2 run to make it a 10-point final.
The game was part of What I Want To Be Day and featured a crowd of 2,126 people, most of them elementary school students. Prior to the start of the game, a variety of guest speakers spoke to the children about career choices that they can make in the future.
In addition to Evans, Thomas was the only other Pride player in double-figures with 10 points. The sophomore point guard also added six assists. Candace Bond had nine points, while Annie Payton chipped in with eight points and two blocks.
Drexel, which shot just 23 percent from the floor in the
contest, was led by Mershon's 12 points and Wootton's 10. Mershon and
Johnson-Allen led the Dragons with seven rebounds each.
The Pride shot 42 percent from the floor for the contest and outrebounded the Dragons by nine, 46-37.
Hofstra is back in action Sunday at 2 p.m. when the Pride hosts James Madison. For ticket information call (516) HOF-TIXX.

The Screaming Eagles traveled to Jamaica, Queens to take on the Cardinals of York College in a non-conference matchup that saw backup setter Cheyenne Grant return and take over the reins of an Eagles squad.
CSE overcame a tough Cardinal squad that pushed the Eagles to a tight 4 set victory (25-22, 23-25, 26-24 and 28-26).
The Eagles realized the Cardinals were not going to be an easy opponent as CSE took control of the first set late at 20-15 just to see the Cardinals go on a 6-1 run driven by 0K on 5 attempts and 2 errors by the Eagles. At 20-21, a key service error by York tied up the score again and gave the ball back to the Eagles who were able to close it out on a 4-1 run, sparked by the serving of Katie Cooper.
The second set featured more of the same inconsistent serving that plagued the Eagles in the first set but, unlike the previous set, CSE was not able to pull out another late set win due to missing serves on 4 of the last 6 serving attempts which gave the Cardinals all the opportunity they needed to seal the set at 23-25.
The third set serving game got better for the Eagles as Taisha Colon, Katie Cooper and Nicole Morera all hit for aces and only had 1 service error among them to pull the Eagles close to an easy set win at 22-15. Although the Cardinals closed to within 3 at 23-20, CSE looked in control until another crucial service error gave the ball and momentum back to York who proceeded to tie the score at 23 and jump ahead by 1 at 23-24 before a service error saved the Eagles and knotted up the score at 24. Colon hit a short serve that forced York into an errant attack and then followed up with an ace to close out the set 26-24.
In the fourth set, 12 hitting errors by the Eagles (only 7 kills) and 4 service errors opened the door for York to take the set and force a decisive fifth set as they held a seemingly insurmountable 20-24 lead on the Eagles. Cooper then stepped up and hit 2 aces and forced the Cardinals into 3 out of system attacks that allowed the Eagles to get a kill by Subhana Wrights and Morera which gave control to the Eagles at 25-24. Although CSE lost a point on a sideout, another service error by York and another ace by Colon sealed the set and match victory in dramatic fashion.
The Eagles were led by Morera and Wrights with 10 kills each. Cheyenne Grant spearheaded an opportunistic Eagle offense for a match high 25 assists. Colon and Cooper served the Eagles into victory with 11 of CSE's 14 aces and only 2 errors. Cooper also led all players with 19 digs and Ayesha Brannon and Morera combined for 30 more digs. Wrights led all players with 5 blocks.
The Eagles improved to 8W-7L and snapped a 3-game losing streak. The Eagles will take on Manhattanville and College of New Rochelle this Saturday at Manhattanville.

The 1987 movie Wall Street is one of my all-time favorite flicks. If you've ever read such best-sellers as Barbarians at the Gate, then you know the Oliver Stone movie about the Go-Go '80s is a nearly perfect portrait of the greed-fueled, leveraged buyout (LBO)-driven era in the U.S. capital markets.
Gordon Gekko (actor Michael Douglas) was the "villain" – but the fictional corporate raider was also the film's most interesting character. (In 2008, Forbes ranked Gekko as the fourth-richest fictional character of all time – and estimated his "net worth" at $8.5 billion.)

Bordeaux White Blend There's white wine in Bordeaux, too! Typically made from Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc, and bits of Muscadelle, white Bordeaux can be a fully dry table wine or, as in Sauternes, a deliciously sweet dessert wine. In other areas of the world, a Bordeaux blend consists primarily of Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon, either of which may be the predominant variety. Bordeaux blends can vary in style, but most have good acidity and often a mineral overtone.

The BMC Racing Team has signed Dominik Nerz and Daniel Oss for the 2013 season, President/General Manager Jim Ochowicz announced Monday.
Classics And Grand Tour Specialists
Ochowicz said the two riders will be strong contributors to the BMC Racing Team in both the Classics and the Grand Tours. "Daniel is qualified to ride all of the early-season classic races and any of the Grand Tours," Ochowicz said. "Dominic is more of a climber and will be equally as productive for the team in some of the Ardennes Classics, as well as the Grand Tours. We're happy to have them joining us for 2013." Both riders played a part in helping Liquigas-Cannondale earn the green, points classification jersey at this year's Tour de France. In keeping with BMC Racing Team policy, no terms of either riders' contracts were announced.
Oss Past USAPCC Stage Winner
Nerz, 22, was runner-up at Rund um den Finanzplatz in his home country of Germany and finished fifth at GP Miguel Indurain. "I'm so happy about this because I think the BMC Racing Team is the best team of the world," he said. "So for me it's perfect. I hope that I can do one of the Grand Tours next year." Oss, 25, won Stage 6 of the USA Pro Cycling Challenge last year and has nine top 10 finishes to his credit this season, including ninth at Milan-San Remo. "I'm looking forward to new goals and new experiences," the Italian said. "It will also be nice to reunite with two former teammates, Manuel Quinziato and Ivan Santaromita. We're all happy to be back together."

- Great looking but missed opportunity on storage

I have spent years searching for a masculine, well-constructed garment bag of waxed tan canvas with dark brown leather trim and this is the best one I have found. It is a great-looking bag though I wish Duluth had been more creative in building in storage space. The dust cover has a pocket in the bottom but my prior garment bag utilized the entire length of the dust cover to place two additional pockets that are perfect for undergarments; alternatively or in addition, Duluth could have added a net pocket on the inside of the dust cover for laundry. Also, the top corners, in the "dead space" above the shoulders of your hanging shirts/suits, should ideally house two corner pockets for shoes or small items like socks or toiletries. This is a tough, attractive bag and the two outer pockets provide good non-hanging (though unstructured) storage space but a bit more thought into additional features that provide more storage solutions would have made this a category-killer…

I purchased this bag in brown, because I wanted this to match my other luggage at home. My hopes weren't too high, given the color on this website.
I was wrong. I took this item out of box (where it had been thoroughly wrapped as protection), and I could only say wow. The color of the canvass, the leather, and the interior fabric, were all very rich, quite appealing.
I was impressed with all the details that went into this item. For instance, the metal hook you can use to hang up the garment bag? It has its own pouch. Do you know how many times the hook on my old garment bag used to snag on me or otherwise grab onto something you didn't want it to?
I am in awe of this item. It is a soldly crafted, beautiful piece of luggage which looks like I can get decades of use from, However, the one feature I wish it did have (but didn't--or at least it didn't appear to during my inspection) would be some sort of interior locking hook/rod for you to put your hangers on. Yes, the bungee thing looks like it will work, but I'll have to practice with it a few times first to be sure.
