This tasted deliciously German! This goes great with a side dish that can sop up the sauce such as mashed potatoes, rice, or spaetzle. Thanks, kellychris! Made for Unrulies Under the Influence, ZWT6.
This is an amazing dish! I was panicing because I went from store to store around my little, country town and could not find hazlenuts anywhere! I ended up substituting almonds and boy were they good. My husband ate until he popped! This will be a must make recipe in our house from now on! Made for ZWT6
Nice change of pace for ham. I had some leftover ham that I sliced up for this. I also liked how easy it was. Thanks kellychis for sharing. Made by an Unruly Under the Influence for ZWT6 Zingo.
Hi Kelly, this is a very good recipe. I have never made any thing like this before and I am surprised just how much I liked it. I used panko also, and it was so nutty and crunchy. I poured some of the cream sauce over the top. So so nice I will be making this again often the meat was so soft and moist, very, very, nice. Thank you for posting. Made for ZWT#6 2010.
These were good, rich, and relatively easy! I pulse the hazelnuts to smear, and used 2 huge ham steaks, drizzling the cream/stock mixture over nut crust. After 15 minutes, I sprinkled with panko crumbs and after 8 minutes, mine were done. The flavor was unusual, but that's OK by us. I think I'll be making these again, as they are a nice change of pace, from our normal 'ham steak' fare. Thanks for sharing, kellychris. Made for ZWT.

For visitors to the Hayes region who love nature and would like to see some astonishing examples of exotic flora without traveling too far, there's the Hayes Garden World, which is certain to meet with their approval. The Hayes Garden World is a unique tourist attraction is that it's a family business that has been owned and operated for over 200 years. It's located right in the midst of the lakeshore communities and provides a wonderful way to spend an afternoon, no matter the weather.
The Hayes Garden World attraction features beautifully landscaped walkways where visitors can marvel in a massive assortment of trees, bushes, and other types of flowering plants. When they've explored all that that has to offer, then there's the huge 4000 square foot greenhouse which includes many exotic plants that would look more at home in an Amazon rain forest than here in sleepy little Hayes. Nevertheless, this is an attraction well worth your time.

Phoenix Skeptics in the Pub Message Board › After ASU Origins Meetup Confusion
|Matt L.
Phoenix, AZ
Apparently there has been some confusion about whether Dawkins and/or Krauss will be at the social meetup after their on-stage conversation at Gammage. I can't predict the future with certainty, but I am confident that they will NOT be attending.
I'm sorry if this was confusing. In the future, I will try to make things like this more clear. Just know that if I ever schedule a meetup where you will have the chance to mingle with celebs of this magnitude, I will make it very, very obvious.
I hope to still see you all there!

With no end to the global debt crisis in sight and the American economy sinking into depression, traditional advice on money could lead millions of innocent victims down the road of deepening losses. But with this timely book, Martin Weiss will guide you to the truly safe havens and show you how to turn this crisis into a unique wealth-building opportunity.
As Editor of the Safe Money Report and author of Crash Profits, Martin Weiss specifically warned of this crisis well before it began. He helped thousands of investors avoid losses by forecasting the financial difficulties of Washington Mutual, Wachovia Bank, Fannie Mae, Lehman Brothers, General Motors, and Citigroupplus nearly every major troubled firmwell in advance. Indeed, the accuracy of his analysis is why the U.S. Government Accountability Office has praised his work; the New York Times wrote that he was "the first to warn of the dangers and say so unambiguously"; and the Wall Street Journal reported that his company's research outperformed that of all Wall Street firms they covered.
Martin Weiss's father, one of the only economists in the modern era who not only advised investors during the 1930s Great Depression, but also predicted it, performed a similar service for investors. And now, with The Ultimate Depression Survival Guide, Weiss combines the past analysis of his father with his own contemporary insights to help you protect your money, improve your income, and build wealth in the worst of times.
Step by step, Weiss outlines effective strategies that will help you to sidestep the continuing dangers in stocks, cut your losses in real estate, escape a banking crisis, build a substantial cash nest egg, and put that cash away in the safest possible place. If you feel you're stuck with sinking real estate or falling stocks, he offers you a solution that will help you sleep at night despite continuing market declines. Plus, he shows you how to recognize the ultimate bottom in real estate and stocks, giving you the opportunity to buy choice assets at bargain prices.
For the duration of this crisisand beyondyou can also benefit from regular follow-up e-mails directly from the author. Visit www.moneyandmarkets.com/guide to sign up for free financial updates such as critical warnings on upcoming dangers and new opportunities as they arise.

So throw out your preconceived notions, start with a clean slate, and follow the commonsense guidance found in this reliable resource to surviveand thriveduring the turbulent times ahead.

Comprehensive Rehabilitation Programs for Low Back Pain
Topic Overview
Comprehensive rehabilitation (rehab) programs offer a variety of treatments for low back pain. They may use physical therapy, pain management with medicine and mental skills, and other medical treatments. These programs teach people how to care for their backs and how to prevent reinjury.

Where is Edward Snowden: The Game
America's search for famed leaker Edward Snowden continues.
In fact, and despite the image it tends to create, I hear this is what Snowden has placed on his business cards:
Edward Snowden
Famed Leaker
Finding the scoundrel won't be easy though. He could be anywhere in the world by now. And all police have to go by is this brief description: Caucasian, tends to blend easily into crowds, wears eyeglasses and was last seen sporting a red-and-white striped ski cap with possibly a matching sweater.
And so the world continues to ask itself the question: Where's Snowden?

Drug enforcement stepped up before anti-crime march
Published: Wednesday, July 19, 2006 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, July 19, 2006 at 11:52 a.m.
HOUMA -- In the neighborhood around Morgan and Hobson streets, residents say they are pleased to see the extra police cars on patrol.
Anti-crime march
WHEN: 6 p.m. Thursday.
WHERE: Meet at the former That Stanley parking lot, at Morgan and Main streets. The march will proceed down Hobson, then Naquin and end at Dumas auditorium.
WHOS IN? The Unified Neighborhood Association, a group of residents from neighborhoods in Councilwoman Arlanda Williams district, which includes parts of west Houma near downtown, plus Gray and Gibson. The Mechanicville Weed and Seed program, as well as several area churches, will also participate.
INFORMATION: Call Williams at the council office, 873-6433.
They want to see their neighborhood cleaned up, they say; theyre weary of the skinny, half-dressed men and women walking the streets late at night and early in the morning.
Anything to make the neighborhood a better place is welcome, they say. The only thing they dont want is for anyone to know theyre involved.
"I live here," said one man, leaning against his porch during a drug bust, describing the addicts and prostitutes but declining to give his name to a reporter. "They leave me alone. They dont try to rob me."
The area has been the target of intense scrutiny by narcotics officers in recent days, leading up to an anti-crime march planned for 6 p.m. Thursday, said Maj. Mike Solet of the Terrebonne Parish Narcotics Task Force. As many as eight to 12 narcotics agents have been in the neighborhood at any given time for more than a week, Solet said, cracking down on minor offenses such as windows tinted too dark or expired license plates in an effort to drive the drug trade away.
Tuesday afternoon, a narcotics agent spotted two men arguing in the middle of Columbus Street. When the officer stopped them, one of the men, 43-year-old Troy Jackson of Houma, reacted suspiciously when asked if he had anything on him, the officer said, and when Jackson emptied his pockets, the burnt glass stem of a suspected crack pipe protruded from a green package of Kool cigarettes. The argument, officers said later, was over a car that had been borrowed in exchange for a crack rock but not yet returned.
As Jackson was given a court date for the misdemeanor drug-paraphernalia offense, a gray-haired woman and her two granddaughters stood in the doorway and watched. She, too, spoke at length about the neighborhoods crime -- she keeps the doors locked whenever shes home, she said -- then refused to give her name. The crime march, she said, could be "wonderful" for returning her street to how it once was.
"Until the leaders get together and do something, its going to get worse," the woman said. "Because nobody cares. They dont want to get involved."
The march was prompted in part by two recent drug-related murders on Lafayette and Prince Collins streets, said Arlanda Williams, the parish councilwoman who represents the area and organized the march with the help of several other area community organizations. The narcotics agents and other officers from the Terrebonne Sheriffs Office and Houma Police Department will all participate in the march in an effort to show the community that law enforcement supports the desire to rid the neighborhood of drugs, Solet said. Officials want the march to replace residents fear of getting involved with hope and pride for their streets, encouraging them to call about anything they find offensive.
The march should "let them know, anytime they see suspicious activity, to call law enforcement," Solet said. "Well come in and try to take care of it. The only way this will be successful is if they have some input into this as well."
The efforts along Morgan and Hobson streets, Solet said, are concentrated now, but narcotics agents have never ignored the area.
"Were always up in that neighborhood, hit and miss, spot checking the areas known as hot spots," Solet said.
The officers heavy presence in the neighborhood Tuesday may not have encouraged residents to speak out yet, but some took a moment to encourage the officers. As narcotics agents searched a gray Dodge Magnum at the corner of Morgan and Main streets for drugs, a woman in a black SUV pulled up beside them, rolled down her window and yelled, "I like seeing you guys. I love it!" then drove away.

Practical General Practice: Guidelines for Effective Clinical Management / Edition 4by Alex Khot, Alex Khot, Andrew Polmear, Andrew Polmear
Pub. Date: 05/26/2003
Publisher: Elsevier Health Sciences
This title has been prepared by general practitioners working in the UK. Practical General Practice is the leading guide to clinical management in primary care.

This title has been prepared by general practitioners working in the UK. Practical General Practice is the leading guide to clinical management in primary care. It takes the form of a manual that can be used by the GP during consultation, but its recommendations are backed by the latest research evidence, so that it also serves as a GP's way into the general practice literature. Unlike other evidence-based guidance that is available either online or in paper format, it has an underlying structure which allows the GP to see immediately what treatment is recommended and why. Furthermore, those recommendations are concrete and specific, rather than a list of possibilities that the GP might wish to consider. The 5th edition has not only updated the material in the previous edition but has added new sections: for example, on chronic fatigue syndrome, eating disorders, MRSA, and domestic violence.
- Bullet points for action which give the GP an immediate summary of the issues that must be covered in the consultation.
- Bullet points of the key evidence which justifies those recommendations.
- All chapters thoroughly revised, to reflect changes in the evidence, and in major guidelines, since the last edition.
- NNT values provided when available
- Totally new sections: domestic violence, MRSA, eating disorders, chronic fatigue syndrome, male hypogonadism, Addison's disease, hypercalcaemia.

WASHINGTON - Some nights, when watching from his perch in the press box, Flyers goaltending coach Jeff Reese gets a feeling - it comes when a netminder is working on something special. Maybe it is the former goalie in him.
"This was one of those games," Reese said.
Ilya Bryzgalov was perfect.
Skating without two of his top defensemen in front of him, Bryzgalov asked his team for just one goal. It was plenty. Bryzgalov turned aside shot after shot to blank Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals last night, 1-0, and post his third shutout of the season.
Don't look now. But the $51 million man is rounding into form, turning into the netminding monster the Flyers banked on him to be, just as the toughest games of the season are on the table.

Henrico stars in Richmond tennis book
When Richmonders think of local tennis legends, a certain history-maker with a statue on Monument Avenue no doubt comes first to mind.
But in a new book about local tennis history, Henrico County residents, schools and clubs play a starring role as well -- although of course they share the spotlight with Richmond native Arthur Ashe.
Co-authored by Tom Hood, John Packett and Eric Perkins and published by Dementi-Milestone Publishing, the Richmond Tennis Association's 128-page hardcover volume is designed both to celebrate Richmond's status as a top tennis town and to raise funds supporting junior tennis in the area.
As noted by the book's title, Richmond – One of America's Best Tennis Towns, the city was named among the nation's top three "Best Tennis Towns" in 2010.
The book features a foreword by John McEnroe, who cites several tournaments and charity matches he played in Richmond, and more than 200 photos -- including some that have never before been published.
Among the many stories highlighted in the book is an account by Packett of the 1984 match in Henrico County in which two records were set -- records that Packett declares "will likely never be broken."
During the match at Raintree Swim and Racquet Club, Vicki Nelson Dunbar and Jean Hepner produced the longest recorded point ever played in a pro tennis match (29 minutes and 643 shots), while playing the longest match in pro history at the time.
After six hours and 31 minutes (and only two sets), Nelson Dunbar was declared the winner. While the match was later surpassed in length by men's matches, the women's record still stands today.
"Thank goodness it didn't go three sets!" writes Packett.
Swinging '60s and booming '70s
Other tidbits in the book include mentions of The Westwood Club's status as one of the first tennis clubs to hire a full-time teaching pro, and of the former Westwood Club pro who holds the record for most city singles championships (Sean Steinour with eight).
The Westwood Club also stars in accounts of high-profile professional competitions that include a 1967 women's invitational and the historic 1970 tournament that helped Billie Jean King win her first Virginia Slims tour title. Fresh from his defeat at the hands of King in the famous "Battle of the Sexes" match in Houston Astrodome in 1973, Bobby Riggs also visited the Westwood Club in 1974 to play several matches (while sporting a ladies' tennis dress) against top area women.
In the "Swinging '60s" section, the book describes Westwood's role as the birthplace of year-round tennis in the Southeast, after the area's first indoor courts were constructed there in 1966. Country Club of Virginia, Willow Oaks and Hermitage Country Club soon followed suit, and by the "Booming 1970s" Henrico also boasted the Virginia All-Weather Tennis facility on Parham Road.
A section on great high school teams highlights several Mills Godwin and Douglas S. Freeman powerhouses as well as the feeder programs at clubs such as Raintree and Westwood, while a section on parks plays up the Belmont Recreation Center. Jefferson Lakeside Country Club is also named among the top clubs, and Avalon, Canterbury, Kanawha and Three Chopt recreation associations are cited among the popular neighborhood centers.
Statue symbolism
The book also contains descriptions of Richmond's early history as a tennis town and numerous Arthur Ashe stories, as well as answering questions that include, "What was one thing people would say that would always drive Arthur Ashe crazy?" and "Who was Richmond's first tennis player to break into the U.S. top 10? It happened before Arthur Ashe was born."
For Wayne Dementi, a long-time Westwood tennis player whose company published the book, the Arthur Ashe stories and pictures are probably his favorite parts of the book.
"I'm a tennis nut; I've played all my life," Dementi says. "So the most meaningful moment [of compiling the book] for me was sitting down with Paul di Pasquale and discussing the symbolism of the statue."
Di Pasquale, who sculpted the Ashe statue on Monument Avenue, told Dementi that Ashe knew he was dying and knew the statue would be his legacy.
"Arthur wanted it to represent his values, so he specifically requested that the book be in his right hand and be higher than the tennis racket," Dementi says. "And to have the children around him." Unfortunately, he adds, the statue's message – that children are the future and that books, knowledge and education reign supreme even over tennis – was overshadowed by the controversy over the statue's location after it was unveiled in 1996.
As an avid tennis player, Dementi said he was gung-ho about the book from the first moment he heard fellow Westwood tennis player Eric Perkins propose the idea, shortly after Perkin's return from claiming the "Top Tennis Town" trophy on behalf of the Richmond Tennis Association (RTA).
"That's kind of like what I do," said Dementi, "and I wanted to do it! After that it was all about recruiting the best people to help with it."
Dementi also found the book project reaffirming, he says, in its documentation of the game's reach and deep roots in Richmond. "We really do have a lot of local support, recreational support, professional support, club support, community support and participation," Dementi said, citing an array of RTA statistics collected from 33 local clubs and their 13,000 players.
"That's one reason this community was chosen one of the best."
Book signing events this month will take place June 16 from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m. at The Plaid Racquet, 9756 Gayton Rd., and June 30 from noon to 2:30 p.m. at Barnes & Noble Short Pump, 11640 W. Broad St. Net proceeds from the book will be used to support junior tennis throughout the community. For more information about the book and RTA, visit http://www.richmondtennis.org

Is it legal for a company to try and collect on a debt that's not owed to them?

Is it legal for a company to try and collect on a debt that's not owed to them?My fiance has a credit card that he hasn't paid in a year and it's been charged off most likely. Before you start telling me he's a horrible person he lost his job last year and was unemployed for awhile. He tried making small payments but it got overwhelming. He's still struggling even with as much help as I can afford to give and he may end up having to file for bankruptcy. Now this third party company is calling him and sending him letters saying he needs to pay them. I did some research and I've seen nothing where they are authorized to collect on behalf of the credit card company. This third party company is also notorious for taking people to court and pursuing wage garnishments etc. We understand that the debt is still owed to the *original* creditor but does this other company have a right to try and collect? I don't want him making a deal with them only to find out they aren't authorized. What if they purchased the charge off account with the intent to sue him? Is that even legal for them to sue him even though he doesn't owe this third party? What can he do?

AbstractThe primary objective of the SBIR program is the development of chemical and biological (CB) decontamination processes and procedures that can be used on aircraft parts or components. The decontamination methods developed and demonstrated under the SBIR program will be compatible with the operating environment and mission of the USAF Air Logistics Centers (ALCs), and be 100% effective without being harmful to existing aircraft materials and components, or having a detrimental effect on their subsequent operation, the ALC environment, personnel or facilities. METSS will accomplish the SBIR program objectives by using decontamination methods and materials based on modified vapor phase hydrogen peroxide technology, the efficacy of which was clearly demonstrated under the Phase I program. The Phase II program efforts will emphasize the development of a complete CB decontamination system capable addressing the program requirements, including the development of supporting practices, processes and procedures required to address CB decontamination needs at the ALC level in an expedient, effective and affordable manner. Additional emphasis will be placed on demonstrating the ability of the decontamination practices, materials, and equipment developed or demonstrated under the SBIR program to be utilized in existing or readily modified form to support additional CB threat scenarios, including large equipment (e.g., aircraft interior and exterior), and general purpose decontamination needs (e.g., large area site decontamination).

When a customer's chargeback scheme left one PayPal customer down $1,500 and without the pricey headphones that they had sold, the person who sold the headphones was understandably upset. It's wrong to rip anyone off, but they're an individual seller rather than a faceless corporation. PayPal reduced the amount that this person owed to $700, but that was still $700 more than they really owed anyone. What's a consumer to do? In this case, post to Reddit. [More]

How Technology & The Power Of Suggestion Are Getting People To Leave Higher Tips
Most American restaurant-goers are used to writing a tip on the receipt after they enjoy a sit-down meal, but with a growing number of eateries — like food trucks and pop-up restaurants — that straddle the line between traditional dining and fast food, it's unclear whether customers are expected to leave a tip or just be on their merry way. That's why some new payment systems include an extra step to put the idea of tipping in the consumer's mind. [More]
One Month After Being Hijacked, Twitter Finally Restores @N Account To Rightful User

As we heard on Tuesday, after a man mistakenly received a PayPal balance of $92 quadrillion — only to see that error swiftly reversed— he said he donated to a local campaign in a fit of generosity, despite not really being mega rich. In that spirit, PayPal now says it'll donate on his behalf to the charity or cause of his choice. It's not going to be quite a quadrillion bucks, of course: "It didn't have as many zeroes, but it's a significant donation," said the one-time quadrillionaire. [via the Daily News]
