One of the first signs of warmer weather is the smell of grilled meat wafting through your neighborhood. Fire up your grill, throw on something tasty and soon, everyone will be your friend.
This past weekend, I headed to the grocery store to stock up on food for the week. It was obvious the warm-weather bug had hit when I saw two young men frantically searching for hot dog buns. Unfortunately they weren't able to find any for their cookout as many others were also enjoying the warmer-than-usual weekend.
This grilling season, be a little different and throw something else on the grill alongside your hot dogs and hamburgers.
Barbecue Chicken Pizza
The Cheesecake Factory has an unusual pizza that I absolutely love. The Gouda is really what makes this pizza pop. It can be made in the oven, but try it on the grill for a change.
1/2 to 1 lb chicken breast
1 ball pizza dough
1 cup shredded mozzarella
smoked Gouda, cut into thin slices
1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced or diced
1/2 cup bbq sauce plus 2 tablespoons
fresh cilantro
Cook the chicken breast and set aside. Cool then cut into cubes. Add 2 tablespoons of bbq sauce and mix. Spread remaining bbq sauce evenly on dough. Sprinkle on mozzarella. Scatter slices of Gouda across pizza. Evenly distribute chicken and onion over cheese. Grill. Top with fresh cilantro.
Pizza Grilling Tips from simplygrilling.com:
Shape the pizza dough by flattening it with your hands on a slightly floured surface. Either use your fingers to stretch the dough out, or hold up the edges of the dough with your fingers, letting the dough hang and stretch, while working around the edges of the dough. Once you've stretched the dough, let it sit for 5 minutes and then push out the edges with your fingers again, until you have a nice round shape, about 12 inches in diameter. Do not make a raised rim as it will interfere with the grilling process.
Once the grill is hot (you can hold your hands an inch over the grates for no more than 2 seconds), dip a tightly folded up paper towel in olive oil and use tongs to wipe the grill grates. Then place a pizza dough round on a lightly floured (or you can use cornmeal) rimless cookie sheet. Let the dough slide off the cookie sheet onto the hot grill grates. Close the lid of the grill and let cook for 2 minutes.
After 2 minutes, open the grill and check underneath the dough to see if it is getting browned. If it is on one side, but not another, use a spatula or tongs to rotate the dough 90 degrees and cook for another minute. If it is not beginning to brown, cover the grill and continue to cook a minute at a time until the bottom has begun to brown. It should only take a couple minutes if you have a hot grill. The top of the pizza dough will start bubbling up with air pockets.
Once the pizza dough has browned lightly on one side, use your cookie sheet to remove it from the grill. Use a spatula to flip the dough over so that the grilled side is now up. Keep the grill covered so it retains its heat for the next step.
Paint the grilled surface of the pizza with a little olive oil, then cover with ½ to 1 ladle of sauce, no more, or you'll end up with a soggy pizza. Sprinkle on your toppings, ending with cheese (if using), and if using meat, put that over the cheese. Remember to go light on the toppings, or your pizza will be heavy and soggy.
Slide the topped pizza back onto the grill. If you are using a gas grill, reduce the heat. If working with a charcoal grill, close the vents on the cover almost all the way. Close the lid and cook for 2-3 minutes more, or until the bottom begins to char and the cheese is bubbly. Pull off the grate with a spatula onto a cutting board or other flat surface and let rest for a couple minutes before cutting into slices.
Crab Stuffed Mushroom Caps
My husband, Danny, doesn't care for mushrooms, but I have learned to really like them. Mushrooms stuffed with crab, cream cheese and parmesan are a creamy, savory addition to steak and the best part is I don't have to share.
24 large mushrooms
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
minced garlic
any flavor whipped cream cheese
1 can crab meat
Parmesan cheese
6 tablespoons butter
Remove stems from the mushrooms. Carefully trim the mushroom cap back to expose the spore area. Do this at an angle so that the cap can hold more mixture.
In a bowl, combine the container of whipped cream cheese, three tablespoons of Parmesan cheese and the crab meat. Fold the mixture over until thoroughly combined.
Pour 1/2 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil into each mushroom cap. Add a sprinkle of minced garlic into the oil. Add one tablespoon of crab mixture into each mushroom cap. Put the mushroom caps into a foil container.
Slice the butter into cubes and add them to the bottom of the container. Sprinkle minced garlic over butter.
Grill over medium heat for 8-10 minutes.
Note: It is best if mushrooms are grilled in a wire basket to prevent them from falling through the grates.
Sweet and Sour Barbecued Chicken
My friend and former colleague, Becki Schumaker, brought grilled chicken skewers for a party when our former principal retired. The chicken was a big hit. It had the perfect amount of tang. We couldn't believe she did all of that work the night before, but she said it was easy to do.
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
juice of ½ lime
juice of ½ lemon
1/3 cup light brown sugar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/3 cup honey
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
4 tablespoons olive oil
4 chicken breasts
Whisk together all ingredients (except chicken). Reserve two portions of the mixture, one for basting and one for dipping. Use the remaining mixture to coat chicken in a resealable bag or dish. Grill chicken until juices run clear. While grilling, baste with more sauce.
If you like, skewer chicken onto bamboo skewers that have been soaked in water. This makes a nice presentation for a party. Serve chicken alongside reserved sauce for dipping.
Note: Do not use leftover marinade or basting mixture as dip.
Country-Style Spare Ribs
Who doesn't love finger lickin' good ribs? Instead of brushing ribs with plain old barbecue sauce, try a slightly smoky and sweet dry rub instead.
4 lbs country-style ribs
½ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons seasoned salt
¼ teaspoon curry powder
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Mix together all spices. Using your hands, rub spice mixture into all sides of the ribs. Barbeque ribs for 45 minutes, turning occasionally.
Makes 4 servings
Grilled Vegetable Salad
Country artist and actress Naomi Judd modeled this recipe after a salad she had at her favorite restaurant, The Ivy, in Los Angeles. It is a perfect accompaniment to grilled meat or add grilled chicken or shrimp and make it a meal in itself.
1 cup olive oil
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
3/4 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cracked black pepper
1 zucchini, trimmed and diced into 3/4-inch pieces
1 red bell pepper, cut into squares
1 yellow bell pepper, cut into squares
fresh corn kernels scraped from 2 ears
1 cup diced eggplant
6 stalks of asparagus, cut into bite-size pieces
3 teaspoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 cups mixed torn lettuce leaves (use several varieties)
1 medium tomato diced
1 avocado, peeled, pitted, and sliced
1 pound grilled shrimp or chicken (optional)
Prepare a grill with medium-hot coals or preheat the broiler. In a small bowl, whisk together oil, lemon juice, sugar, basil, salt, and pepper. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
Create a basket by folding up the edges of a piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil. In a medium bowl, combine zucchini, red and yellow bell peppers, corn, eggplant, and asparagus. Add olive oil and toss to coat. Spoon vegetables into the foil basket. Place the basket on the grill and cover the grill, or place 5 inches from broiler. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are slightly tender, about 15 minutes.
Season with 1/4-teaspoon salt. Arrange lettuce leaves in individual serving bowls. Place tomatoes and avocado slices on top. Add vegetables and the shrimp or chicken, if using, either still hot or at room temperature. Whisk dressing again and pass at the table.
Reader's Tip:
A Carroll reader wrote to me and wanted to share a charcoal grilling tip. Recently she was having trouble lighting the coals until she remembered an episode of "Survivorman" she saw on TV. He used a single Frito and one match to start the fire. He said the oil in the chip helps keep the fire burning. The Carroll reader told me this really works. She used three Frito Scoops to help light her charcoal grill.

WATCH: Arcade Fire releases 'Reflektor' teaser video
Listen to Arcade Fire on iHeartRadio
Another day, another Arcade Fire teaser.
The Canadian indie rockers have been dropping hints about their latest project for a while now, including cryptic graffiti with the word "Reflektor" and a 15-second instrumental song clip.
But now they're taking it to another level with a new video. The 40-second clip collects multiple shots of instruments and band members in the studio backed by more instrumental music. It ends just as frontman Win Butler steps up to the microphone, cutting to the now familiar "Reflektor" image and the "9/9 9PM" message.
"Rolling Stone" recently reported that an Australian DJ has announced plans to play a new Arcade Fire single on that date, but the band has yet to officially confirm what fans can expect next Monday, September 9th, at 9:00 p.m. Eastern.

By Jerry Cornfield Herald Writer
OLYMPIA — A special session of the Legislature began Monday with talk of an agreement that could clear a path for a plan to raise billions of dollars for transportation.
The Democratic chairwoman of the House Transportation Committee said there is no deal on how much money to raise, where to spend it or if voters should be given the final say.
But Rep. Judy Clibborn, D-Mercer Island, said her Republican counterpart in the Senate has agreed this is the year to try to answer those questions and move a package forward.
That is significant for Sen. Curtis King, R-Yakima, who voiced opposition throughout the regular session, she said.
"Up until now he's been saying 'no,'" Clibborn said. "Nothing's been agreed to other than this is the year to try to do it. It was a nice first step."
King, meanwhile, implied Clibborn might be overstating his willingness to help advance the plan since he's personally not on board with the idea.
"I told her I would consider it this year if that's what my caucus tells me," he said Monday. "I didn't rule it out. I didn't say it couldn't happen this year. I didn't say it would happen this year."
House Democrats and Gov. Jay Inslee want to raise $8.4 billion for new bridges, ferries, wider highways and expanded bus service primarily from a 10-cent hike in the gas tax and higher fees tied to vehicle registration.
Opposition from King and the Republican-dominated Senate effectively bottled it up during the regular session.
Clibborn and Sen. Tracey Eide, D-Federal Way, met with King in Yakima last week to discuss the issue. Eide co-chairs the Senate Transportation Committee with King.
Eide said King "didn't close the door" and wants to talk about all the options in the special session which could last up to 30 days.
"He didn't say 'no.' We did hear 'no' in the regular session," Eide said. "He has moved considerably."
The news on transportation highlighted an otherwise uneventful opening day of special session marked by party caucuses, press conferences and closed-door budget negotiations in the late afternoon.
Budgets passed in the House and Senate are separated by roughly $1.2 billion, which is the amount of additional money House Democrats want to bring in though ending tax preferences and continuing a business tax set to expire in June.
On the first day, the House and Senate each met briefly to pass procedural measures required for the start of the extra session.
House Democrats met behind closed doors in the morning, disbanding at lunch for the day. Only leaders of the Republican caucus showed up as most of their members stayed home and waited to be summoned when votes are to be taken.
"Over the course of the next couple weeks is when we start getting down to negotiating on the budget," said House Minority Leader Dan Kristiansen, R-Snohomish.
In the Senate, both parties met privately in the afternoon.
And leaders of the Senate Majority Coalition also sat down with reporters to reiterate they intend to fight the House tax proposal and push for a number of education and government reforms.
"We think we did what the public sent us down here to do," said Senate Majority Leader Rodney Tom, D-Medina, one of two Democratic members of the coalition.

COBLESKILL, NY -- The State University of New York College of Agriculture and Technology at Cobleskill has joined several fellow SUNY campuses in placing a Shop24 vending machine.
The giant refrigerated vender, made by Shop24 Global LLC (Columbus, OH), is already on SUNY's Albany, Oneonta, New Paltz, Cortland and Morrisville campuses in upstate New York.
With a 10x13-ft. footprint, the automated campus stores carry snacks, beverages, meals, personal hygiene products, laundry detergent and over-the-counter medications, among other items.
SUNY Cobleskill has more than 2,500 students, many of whom live in the campus's 10 residence halls.
"Shop24 offers an extensive array of items for students on the run, and will certainly satisfy those late-night cravings," said Cobleskill Auxiliary Services executive director Brian Marhaver. "It will also serve our campus community when classes are not in session, a time when our retail and resident dining operations are limited."

brief intro
I am new to this forum so I thought I would introduce myself. I live in north central Massachusetts. I have been shooting bows since I was a kid with a brief period of no archery because I was too busy chasing girls to realize how important a part of my life archery is. I shot compounds for a few years but went back to the traditional side about 10 years ago. I haven't built my own bow yet but I do build my cedar arrows and make my own bow strings. I currently shoot a Howard Hill longbow and fool around with my Martin Sabre recurve occationaly. I am an active member and the archery committee chairman of the Concord Rod and Gun Club. The archery range at that club is hard to beat in my area. I enjoy flinging arrows at just about anything including paper targets, 3D targets, rolling balls, stumps, etc.
I look forward to getting aquainted with other archery and 3D enthusiasts who come to this site.
Welcome to the site. Our membership is really starting to grow and we have lots of members that love to talk about archery and help others in the sport.Chris Christenson - Admin

Welcome Rich. I have a couple of buds who shoot trad only. It is impressive to watch them shoot.
What caught my eye in your post was you like shooting rolling balls, etc. The traditional and recurve people really have some fun with their bows shooting stuff like that.Take a kid with you. Show them the Great Outdoors. Pass it on.

Sounds like a videocard driver issue. What are the make and model of each computer. And what are the videocards?
I'm having trouble figuring out why backtrack isn't booting properly. (Gnome 64bit)
Firstly I would like to say that it works on my desktop perfectly fine but then when i try on my laptop it doesn't boot properly.
When I select normal/text mode it will start loading up everything then just before it goes to the startx screen, half the screen goes black and lines go through it.
But then when I run it in safe mode everything works perfectly fine...
Any ideas on what could be the problem.
Thanks Jem.
Sounds like a videocard driver issue. What are the make and model of each computer. And what are the videocards?
The laptop that it isn't working on is Acer Aspire 5741G. It has a nvidia geforce 320M 1gb graphics card.
No to sure about the other laptop...it recently stopped working haha and I cant get it working again.
Thanks Jem.
OK Firstly, and I really should have told you this to begin with. You should prolly check the MD5 of the disk since it's easy to do (look around the forums/Wiki) and can easily cause it to work right in one system, but fail completely in another. Secondly, there was a really bad known bug for the NVIDIA GeForce GT 320M gfx cards and Startx in particular. There was much complaining, mostly because that card had terrible Linux support when they were new. But I have no idea if that's the problem here or not. You will need help from one of the pros of the forums, as I'm fairly new. Or you will just need to try the fix and see what happens. In any case, here is a link thats supposed to be the fix for that bug. Should also be installation instructions as well.
Now, If your using the live CD, you will have to install and set up in safe/text only mode, then install the drivers. Then things should start working right. Also take note that I could easily be dead wrong about this and it may not help you at all. So don't do any thing you can't undo, and back up all your stuff before doing any thing. And if things don't work right, re-post with as much information as you can think of and some one else will likely be able to help you out from there on.
Best of luck.
Did this work?

Avril Lavigne reveals new single cover art
Listen to Avril Lavigne on iHeartRadio
The pop-punk singer took to Twitter on Tuesday night to drop the cover art for the track, which she teased last week. She appears nude, covered only by the oversized teddy bear she's clutching.
Here's my single cover!!! #HTNGU twitter.com/AvrilLavigne/s…— Avril Lavigne (@AvrilLavigne) April 2, 2013
The "Sk8er" girl also seems to be going back to her old look, complete with blonde hair and smudged black eyeliner.
Avril is set to premiere the first single off her upcoming fifth studio album on Ryan Seacrest's radio show on April 9th.
She may be determined to never grow up, but last year the Canadian singer announced her engagement to Nickelback's Chad Kroeger, who had a hand in her last release 2011's "Goodbye Lullaby."

It seems mind-boggling. Minnesota public school staff forced a barefoot teenage girl in a wet bathing suit to stand outside in sub-zero weather until she developed frostbite.
It happened around 8:30 a.m. Wednesday at Como Park High School in St. Paul. Fourteen-year-old Kayona Hagen-Tietz says she was in the school's pool when the fire alarm went off.
While other students had gotten out earlier and were able to put on dry clothes, Hagen-Tietz said she was rushed out with just her towel.
On Wednesday morning, the temperature was 5 below, and the wind chill was 25 below.
A teacher prevented her from getting her clothes from her locker because the rules stipulate that everyone must immediately leave the building in the event of a fire alarm. Shivering, the student pleaded to be allowed to go inside a car or another building but her request was denied.
Hagen-Tietz asked to wait inside an employee's car, or at the elementary school across the street. But administrators believed that this would violate official policy, and could get the school in trouble, so they opted to simply let the girl freeze.
Students huddled around her and a teacher gave her a coat, but she stood barefoot for ten minutes before obtaining permission to sit in a vehicle. By that point, she had already developed frostbite.

O'Reilly misleadingly claimed Real ID Act passed Senate 100-0
As proof that "politicians are finally feeling the heat on the illegal [immigrant] issue," Fox News host Bill O'Reilly misleadingly claimed that the "the Real ID Act passed 100-0 in the Senate." In fact, the Senate never held a vote specifically on "the Real ID Act," which requires states to verify that an applicant is a legal resident of the United States before issuing the applicant a driver's license. Rather, the legislation was attached to the emergency supplemental appropriation bill for military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. The only way to vote against the ID measure would have been to vote against the entire funding bill.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman F. James Sensenbrenner (R-WI) originally introduced the bill [1] as part of the House's intelligence community reform package in late 2004. When opposition to the provisions in the Senate threatened to kill that bill, the provisions were dropped, but the House leadership agreed to reattach them "to the first piece of legislation this session that both chambers were expected to pass" [Los Angeles Times, 1/27/05]. The Real ID Act was reintroduced in 2005 and passed the House [2], but apparently recognizing that the stand-alone bill lacked support in the Senate, the House leadership attached the legislation to the House version [3] of the emergency funding bill. The Senate version [4] did not include the measure. With bipartisan support, Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) introduced an amendment [5] expressing the sense of the Senate that the provisions should not be in the final bill, but the amendment was ruled "non-germane" and denied a voted. Most of the Real ID provisions in the House's version survived the House-Senate conference committee and were part of the conference report that passed the House and Senate.
During the Senate debate on the final version of the bill, several senators voiced opposition to the inclusion of the Real ID provisions in the conference report, but this opposition was not reflected in the final vote [6] of 100-0. Here are some excerpts from the debate:
- Sen. Lamar Alexander [7] (R-TN): "That does not stop me from objecting and expressing my disappointment to two provisions in the bill. One is the so-called Real ID Act. Actually, unlike a lot of legislation we pass here, this is well named. This really is a national identification card for the United States of America for the first time in our history. We have never done this before, and we should not be doing it without a full debate. This Real ID provision turns 190 million driver's licenses, which are now ineffective ID cards, into more effective national identification cards. To add insult to injury, we have also slapped state governments with the bill for them. I strongly object to this. When I was governor of Tennessee, I vetoed our state ID card twice because I thought it was an infringement on civil liberties. I thought that driver's licenses are for driving. If we need an ID card, we should have an ID card."
- Sen. Lincoln Chafee [8] (R-RI): There are many concerns I have with Real ID in addition to the process used to bring it to the floor. First, the measure is an unfunded mandate to the states. Furthermore, unless every state complies, the federal government will have to mandate the creation of a national ID. Between the creation of a new database and approval system, training for DMV [Department of Motor Vehicles] workers, and struggling state budgets, Real ID will impose real costs. More importantly, a database of this type will open up many privacy concerns and there must be security safeguards in place to prevent the gathered information from being obtained inappropriately. Many states, including Rhode Island, have already passed legislation setting their own requirements for driver's license recipients. The federal government should not impinge upon the states' ability to decide who can and cannot drive on their roads, especially without the funding to support the idea. Real ID will put more drivers on the road without licenses and without insurance."
- Sen. Robert Byrd [9] (D-WV): "Mr. President, there were some problems in conference, most notably the recessing at the call of the chair and not returning, which left some of our members unable to offer motions. During the recess, 55 pages of modified Real ID immigration legislation were inserted into the conference report, sight unseen, by the conferees. Now, can you imagine that? That would not have happened when I was chairman of the Appropriations Committee. That would not have happened when I was majority leader of the Senate. I will tell you, I don't blame our chairman or any committee members for this situation, but I do acknowledge that there were problems."
- Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman's (D-CT) floor statement [10]: "I do want to note, however, my strong objections to House provisions known as the Real ID Act that have been included in the conference report. The Real ID Act will repeal ID security provisions enacted with overwhelming bipartisan support last year at the urging of the 9/11 Commission and place them with rigid and unworkable federal mandates on state government for the issuance of driver's licenses, long exclusively a matter of state law."
- Sen. Russell Feingold [11] (D-WI): "My vote in support of this conference report also comes with serious reservations because it contains the extremely troublesome immigration and driver's license provisions of the Real ID Act, which the House passed as an amendment to this bill. I strongly support efforts to curb illegal immigration and to prevent terrorists from entering our country to do harm. But as we work to secure our borders and protect our nation from future terrorist attacks, we must also respect the need for refugees, foreign workers, family members, students, businesspeople, visitors, and others who wish to come to our nation legally. The Real ID Act is a big step in the wrong direction. The new restrictions on immigration in the Real ID Act are not necessary to protect national security. Rather, they will only serve to create serious and unjustified hardships for people fleeing persecution and for other non-citizens."
From the May 12 edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor:
O'REILLY: But in Washington, the politicians are finally feeling the heat on the illegal issue, as the Real ID Act passed 100-0 in the Senate. The president will sign it into law shortly. Real ID would require all states to see the birth certificates of anyone applying for driver's licenses. The intent is to keep licenses out of the hands of illegals.

Thirty years ago, I fell in love with the picturesque village of Rothenburg, in Germany's Franconian heartland.
At that time, the town still fed a few farm animals within its medieval walls. Today its barns are hotels, its livestock are tourists and Rothenburg is well on its way to becoming a medieval theme park.
But Rothenburg is still Germany's best-preserved walled town. Countless travelers have searched for the elusive "untouristy Rothenburg."
There are several "Rothenburgs" in Germany. Make sure you are going to Rothenburg ob der Tauber (on the Tauber River); people really do sometimes drive or ride the train to other, nondescript Rothenburgs by accident.
In the Middle Ages, when Frankfurt and Munich were just wide spots in the road, Rothenburg was Germany's second-largest city, with a whopping population of 6,000.
Today, it's the country's most exciting medieval town, enjoying tremendous popularity with tourists without losing its charm. There's a thousand years of history packed between its cobbles.
A walking tour helps bring the ramparts alive. For the serious side of Rothenburg's history, you can take the tour offered by the town's tourist office.
But for a thoroughly fun hour of medieval wonderment, take the Night Watchman's Tour (www.nightwatchman.de).
The watchman jokes like a medieval Jerry Seinfeld as he stokes his lamp and takes tourists on his rounds, all the while telling slice-of-gritty-life tales.
For the best view of the town and surrounding countryside, climb the Town Hall tower. For more views, walk the wall that surrounds the old town. This 1.5-mile stroll atop the wall is at its most medieval before breakfast or at sunset.
Rothenburg's fascinating Medieval Crime Museum, all unusually well-explained in English, is full of diabolical instruments of punishment and torture.
For a more kinder-friendly spot, there's the Doll and Toy Museum, with two floors of historic playthings.
St. Jakob's Church contains the one must-see art treasure in Rothenburg: a glorious 500-year-old altarpiece by Riemenschneider, the Michelangelo of German woodcarvers.
For a closer view of this realistic commotion of Bible scenes, climb the stairs behind the organ. It's Germany's greatest piece of woodcarving.
Rothenburg is one of Germany's best shopping towns. One of the ornament shops has an excellent little German Christmas Museum upstairs.
You'll take a look at tree decorations through the ages, Christmas tree stands, mini-trees sent in boxes to World War I soldiers at the front, early Advent calendars and old-time Christmas cards.
To hear the birds and smell the cows, take a walk into the Tauber Valley. A trail leads downhill from Rothenburg's idyllic castle gardens to a cute, skinny, 600-year-old castle, the summer home of the town's mayor in the 15th century, Mayor Toppler.
While called a castle, the floor plan is more like a four-story treehouse.
From the mayor's house, the trail continues downstream along the trout-filled Tauber River to the sleepy village of Detwang.
It is actually older than Rothenburg and has a church with another impressive Riemenschneider altarpiece.
In the night, I'm happy to find myself alone with Rothenburg. It feels good to be within these protective walls, where modern-day travelers meet medieval wayfarers.

(Effective Date: 1/2/2014) * Family Division Services Fifteenth Annual Report (Fiscal Year 2013)
As part of a comprehensive system for managing family and juvenile cases at Montgomery County Circuit Court, Family Division Services (FDS) provides a wide range of out-of-court services for the parties involved in cases before the court . We work with judges, magistrates, court administrators and family support services coordinators to develop family law policy, identify family cases requiring additional court-ordered services, insure that personnel familiar with the details of your case will address your concerns, and promote timely and efficient management of cases before the court.
Family Division Services is funded by a Family Law Grant provided by the Department of Family Administration, Maryland State Administrative Office of the Courts. During Fiscal Year 2008, over 8,407 family law cases were filed with the Circuit Court and over 10,000 hearings were held. These hearings were conducted by the seven Judges and five Magistrates assigned to hear Family cases.

What is the Function of Family Division Services?
Family Division Services is responsible for the following:
- Protect and serve the best interests of the children and families in our community;
- Provide means by which litigants become aware of their rights and responsibilities and have access to information to assist them with judicial procedures;
- Develop appropriate support services for families so that the process reduces conflict and introduces the parties to problem-solving techniques to help reduce future litigation;
- Provide continuity of case management by assigning each case to a Case Manager, Magistrate and/or a Judge; and
- Resolve cases appropriately and in a timely manner through a system of Differentiated Case Management.
What is Differentiated Case Management?
Differentiated Case Management (DCM) is a comprehensive case processing plan designed to facilitate timely and appropriate resolution of cases. Every family case filed in the court is assigned a DCM track number. Tracks help the court categorize cases into different complexity levels. By doing this, the court can ensure that it is providing appropriate administrative support, expert services to explore pending issues and a level of judicial involvement that allows all cases to be heard in an organized, efficient and timely manner.

- Family Division Services' Differentiated Case Management Plan:
What Services Are Available?
In an effort to define issues and promote early resolution of cases, the Circuit Court offers the following services to litigants through Family Division Services:
- Custody Assessments and Evaluations
- Co-Parenting Classes
- Family Law Self-help Center
- Custody/Access Mediation Program (through contractual service providers)
- Facilitation (through contractual service providers)
- Supervised Visitation Program (through contractual service providers)
- Family, Guardianship/Adoption, and Juvenile Case Management
Who Watches Over My Case?
While the entire court structure and process is geared toward DCM, there are five Case Managers in Family Division Services who monitor the progress of family cases. To ensure that cases are receiving the appropriate resources, that filings are in a proper posture for scheduled hearings and that unresolved issues which might prevent a case from moving forward are identified, the Case Managers monitor the active caseload and act as liaisons between the Family Judges, Magistrates and providers of resources and services. Each case is permanently assigned to a Case Manager to ensure continuity from initial case filing through post-judgment actions.
The Family Case Managers and their contact information are listed below:

|Erin Shine
|Marianne Hendricks

Sellwood Bridge detour
As part of the Sellwood Bridge project, the ramp at the west end no longer has direct access to Oregon 43 southbound. In the past, traffic looped under the bridge ramp to get onto Oregon 43.
Now, drivers want to reach oregon 43 south must drive north to the Taylors Ferry intersection and take a newly built turnaround to get onto Oregon 43 southbound.
The traffic signal will be adjusted to minimize traffic delays, but during preak traffic times delays are expected.

Apple Signs License Agreement with Swiss Railway for "Stolen" iOS 6 Clock Design
Tiffany Kaiser

Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
The companies haven't disclosed how much Apple is paying
Apple has decided to pay up for an allegedly
stolen clock design
in its latest iOS 6 mobile operating system.
IOS 6, which was
released last month
only days ahead of the iPhone 5, featured a new clock design for the iPad that seemed pretty basic. Just a white face with black, rectangular notches representing the numbers, black hour/minute hands and a red seconds hand. No big deal, right?
Wrong. The iOS 6 clock was nearly identical to a clock design developed by a railway company in Switzerland called Swiss Federal Railways (SBB). SBB said its company created that clock design back in 1944.

When SBB became aware of the stolen design, it immediately contacted Apple in hopes of some sort of licensing agreement.
"We are proud that this icon of clock design is being used by a globally successful company," said Reto Kormann, SBB spokesperson. "We've approached Apple and told them that the rights for this clock belong to us."
Apple has agreed on licensing terms
for the clock design with SBB. However, the companies haven't disclosed how much Apple is paying.
It's interesting to see Apple on the losing end of a copyright infringement claim; especially after the hell it has put Samsung through over mobile patent lawsuits. After a lengthy battle with Samsung around the globe, a U.S. jury
found Samsung guilty of copying the iPhone/iPad
for its Galaxy line. Not only was Samsung ordered to pay $1.05 billion USD in damages, but a court date on December 6 may lead to more product bans for the South Korean electronics maker. Apple is also looking to
boost that $1.05 billion fine to $3 billion
The Verge
"Then they pop up and say 'Hello, surprise! Give us your money or we will shut you down!' Screw them. Seriously, screw them. You can quote me on that." -- Newegg Chief Legal Officer Lee Cheng referencing patent trolls

Russert said he knew Cheney lied about not meeting Edwards -- so why didn't he mention it in his post-debate commentary?
Following the October 5 vice presidential debate, NBC's Meet the Press host Tim Russert repeated without challenge Vice President Dick Cheney's claim that Cheney had never met Senator John Edwards until the debate, but Russert knew Cheney's claim was false: Cheney and Edwards appeared on the same 2001 broadcast of Meet the Press. Russert said on the October 6 edition of NBC's Today show: "I thought that John Edwards would call him [Cheney] on it right at that very moment."
Here's what Russert said during an October 5 post-debate appearance on MSNBC:
RUSSERT: [W]hen he [Cheney] turned to John Edwards and basically said to him, you know what, you are a young man in too much of a hurry. I never met you before in my life until you walked on the stage tonight, it was basically saying to the American people, you may disagree with me, but I am steady and I am resolute, and I have a lot of experience, and you don't have to worry about the government if I am a heartbeat away.
And here's what Russert said on the October 6 edition of NBC's Today show:
KATIE COURIC (Today co-host): [I]t was interesting how they didn't really respond to each other's criticisms. Oftentimes they would -- somebody would make a point, and then they wouldn't be responsive, they would just say another point against that candidate. For example, the vice president said he had never met John Edwards until tonight, talking about pretty much being an absentee senator, but you say that's not true.
RUSSERT: No, it's not true. In fact, on April 8th of 2001, they were on Meet the Press together. Dick Cheney first, and then John Edwards after him.
COURIC: Well, why did he say that?
RUSSERT: And they stopped and shook hands. They were at a prayer meeting together. I think what he was trying to -- maybe he didn't remember -- but he clearly is trying to give the impression that John Edwards is a young ambitious man in a hurry who just doesn't stop by the Senate and do his job in a serious way, but is out campaigning and politicking, suggesting it's all politics. I was surprised that --
COURIC: On the other hand, if you -- if you misspeak like that and -- and are dishonest about it, that can backfire, right?
RUSSERT: Sure. I wish -- I thought that John Edwards would call him on it right at that very moment. I still don't know why. I think it goes to your point, he was always trying to find a -- a bigger issue to take on.

Tamar Braxton sparks new beef With K. Michelle on 'Arsenio Hall Show'
Listen to Tamar Braxton on iHeartRadio
Tamar Braxton On Arsenio Hall (10.16.13) Interview by onlytamar
Tamar Braxton stopped by The Arsenio Hall Show to promote her album, Love After War and fan the flames of her feud with K. Michelle with some serious shade.
She took the stage to sing her latest single, "All The Way Home" but wasn't too eager to chat about the Love & Hip Hop star. When Arsenio Hall asked her about K. Michelle, she threw some sideways shade at the outspoken singer.
"K.Mart? You mean oh the store that Nicki Minaj has her clothes in? They're amazing," she said.
"Wow. I think we should go to the card," responded the host.

Harrogate, Tenn. - Gaither Hendrix connected on four three-pointers on his way to a game high 26 points, but behind Desmond Johnson's double-double, the #8 Lincoln Memorial Railsplitters topped the visiting Brevard Tornados in Tex Turner Arena on Wednesday evening, 69-58.
Brevard (4-21, 3-12 SAC) took the lead at 15-13 as Hendrix completed the old-fashioned three-point play with 10:49 on the clock, but Dustin Craig responded with a jumper and Brandon Armstrong followed with a three-pointer on the next LMU possession and the Railsplitters never trailed the rest of the way in recording the season sweep against the Tornados.
Hendrix led all players with 26 points, going 10-for-19 from the field and 4-for-8 from behind the arc as the Tornados shot 43.1 percent (22-51) from the floor as a team. Darius Moose added nine points and a pair of blocked shots, while Michael Gist scored eight points off the bench as the Tornados see their SAC winning streak snapped.
Johnson led the Railsplitters, scoring 20 points and pulling down 14 rebounds as LMU held the 41-25 rebounding edge in the contest. Vincent Bailey added 17 points on 8-for-13 shooting as the Railsplitters shot 29-for-60 (48.3 percent) from the floor in the game. Chance Jones added nine points as 11 different LMU players contributed in the scoring column in the box score.
Bailey and Moose opened up the game trading baskets and Moose put Brevard up early with a free throw as the teams battled through two ties and three lead changes in the first four minutes of the contest. Lincoln Memorial broke the 5-5 tie as Johnson connected on a jumper in the paint and Bailey followed with a short jumper to put the Railsplitters up 9-5 at the 15:22 mark, but Hendrix answered with a jumper and a three-pointer to retake the lead for Brevard.
The teams swapped the lead two more times with Jake Troyli connecting on a jump shot to put LMU up at the 11:17 mark and Hendrix answered on the following BC possession with a driving jumper before Craig tied the game up for the third time with 10:22 to play in the first half with a basket in the paint. Armstrong broke the tie with a three-pointer off the assist from Cam Carden.
Brevard tied the game up twice more as Hendrix hit a three-pointer at the 7:39 mark to tie the game at 20 and Aleksandar Vasiljevic hit a jumper in the paint to knot the game up at 22 with 7:05 on the clock, but Lincoln Memorial closed out the half on a 16-4 run, capped by a three-pointer by Wally Jones as the Railsplitters went into the break with the 38-26 lead.
Lincoln Memorial continued to build on their halftime advantage, going up by as many as 20 in the second half as Johnson hit a jumper in the paint at the 13:33 mark, putting the Railsplitters up 52-32. The Tornados rallied back behind three-pointer by Gist and Hendrix, cutting the lead back to within 11 following an 11-2 run three minutes later as Brevard closed to within 54-43.
Brevard continued to fight back bringing the game all the way back to within nine points following another Gist three-pointer with 1:52 left on the clock, but the deficit was too much to overcome as Armstrong offset a Hendrix three-pointer with a pair of free throws with 38 ticks remaining on the clock to close out the 69-58 victory.
Brevard returns home on Saturday, February 18th as they welcome South Atlantic Conference opponent Lenoir-Rhyne University to Brevard, N.C. for the Tornados' annual Play 4Kay game. Tipoff between the Tornados and the Bears in Boshamer Gymnasium is set for 4 p.m.

I'd like a texture pack, and maybe some mod that helps me find dungeons if I want. I have NO IDEA how to go about doing any of this.
Can anyone give me some links and some help?
While in the process of typing this post, I tried again to get a texture pack, and I found one!! I'm so excited about it. It's the Borderlands texture pack.
But I still am not sure about mods. Any help?

Styleite.com, a popular fashion & beauty website, reported on the airing of a commercial showing Trump's hair being blown off of his head in an article they titled, "Donald Trump's Toupée Is Too Sensitive For TV." Apparently this title did not tickle Mr. Trump's fancy, so he took matters into his own hands by sending a letter to the author.
On a print out of the article, Trump wrote in black Sharpie ink:
"I DON'T wear a toupée.
It's ALL mine (for better or worse)."
Just goes to show, when it comes to self-expression, nothing beats a Sharpie. (Even this kajillionaire knows it!)

Gallery: Volunteers work to build 2013 Rose Parade floats
IRWINDALE - Birds, naturally, are no friends to floats.
The majestic Rose Parade floats that traverse Pasadena every year are decorated not only with an array of colorful floral arrangements, but also with dry material such as bark, dried grasses and seeds, which are often less elaborate but always useful.
The seeds sometimes attract birds, who freely flitter through the large warehouses where float builders work.
"If something is done in certain seeds that they might enjoy, you'll see them feasting on the whole top of your float," said Jim Hynd, the floral director for Fiesta Parade Floats, as several birds chattered overhead.
Builders do take steps to protect their creations from hungry sparrows, and it's just a small part of the process to get floats ready for New Year's Day on Colorado Boulevard.
Designs are conceived as early as January, just after the previous Rose Parade ends.
Companies and independent groups build the frames during the summer months, often recycling previous float chassis and large elements.
The float skeleton is covered by a foam base and secured with wire, then painted.
Phoenix Decorating Company, the largest builder with 20 floats this year, brings in about 16,000 workers and volunteers over the lifespan of all of its floats, spokesman Brian Dancel said.
Because of the sheer amount of people, applying paint is a critical part of the process that helps volunteers get a sense of how the finished product will appear.
"It's a flower-by-number process, if you will," Dancel said, "so anybody that comes in can do it."
The decoration work begins just after Thanksgiving, when volunteers and artists start applying dry materials. Fresh flowers such as roses don't arrive until the final weeks of December, but builders plan it out long before then.
"We're thinking about decoration from the very first moment we're sketching a design," said longtime designer Charles Meier, who founded Paradiso Parade Floats this year and is handling the City of San Gabriel entry.
Colors, textures and materials are all considered, Meier said, including whether each part of the float should have dry or fresh materials, which helps spread out the work over several weeks.
As a smaller entry, the city of San Gabriel has limited its volunteers primarily to residents.
A group of Gabrielino High School students worked on the float recently, dicing sphagnum moss to be used as oxen fur for the San Gabriel's entry, "City with a Mission," in celebration of its 100th anniversary.
The moss will then be dusted with cinnamon, "so it has a nice furry, brown look," Meier said.
Selections of dried materials and flowers have evolved over the years, Fiesta's Hynd said, often reflecting global market supply, marketing and new techniques in floral design.
In the parade's earlier days, floats were merely spectacular showcases with a sponsor name attached. Now, the designs themselves often reflect a company or organization's purpose.
"It's our job to make them as beautiful as possible, and a beautiful floral presentation, without just being a big advertisement," Hynd said.
Vendors acquire flowers and dry materials from throughout the world, and sometimes designers save money purchasing a low-germinating batch of seeds from farmers.
Hynd, a 45-year veteran of floatmaking, developed the technique of cutting up dried straw flower into confetti, now a staple of float decoration.
His team of floral designers has helped Fiesta dominate the parade's biggest prize, the Sweepstakes Trophy, for the past 19 years, and Hynd is always on the lookout for a new idea.
"During that week of decorating, you might see a spark, and you'll say if we just took this one step further, it will be so much more than we anticipated," he said.

Containment on the 2,956-acre Summit Fire rose to 65 percent Thursday night, but about 400 firefighters plan to remain at the scene in Banning to douse hot spots and flare-ups as hazardous wind conditions continue today.
Photo gallery: Summit Fire Day Two: Banning wildfire is one of seven fires in California
Crews raced to surround the blaze Thursday - a busy day for firefighters who were battling wildfires around Southern California. The 12-acre Van Buren Fire in the Jurupa Valley, which destroyed two homes and damaged seven other structures, was 100 percent contained at noon, Cal Fire officials said.
The blaze was reported at 8:24 a.m. at the intersection of Van Buren Boulevard and Jurupa Road.
Firefighters still had a lot of work to do on the Springs Fire in Ventura County. Cal Fire this morning said the blaze had grown to 10,000 acres and was 10 percent contained. Evacuations remain in place and 4,000 homes are threatened, along with 300 businesses. That fire ignited by the 101 Freeway and Camarillo Springs Road at 7:01 a.m. Thursday.
A Red Flag Warning remains in effect until 6 p.m. tonight for the Inland Empire. Winds are expected at 15 to 25 mph and gusts as high as 45 mph. Temperatures will range between 90 and 100 degrees and humidity is in the single digits.

BROWNE, RAITT COMING TO TOWN: Rock's been way too underplayed in town the last few years, but 2013 is shaping up rather hopefully.
Jackson Browne, who grew up hanging out at the Pike and performing with the boys of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band (with which he would be an original though brief member) at McCabe's Guitar shop on Anaheim Street back in the 1960s, is returning to Long Beach for an acoustic show at the Terrace Theater on Jan. 29.
At Browne's last show at the Terrace in March 2011, he spun some yarns about his Long Beach years and sung "The Barricades of Heaven," in which he recalls some of the local clubs of his youth - the Paradox in Tustin, the Rouge et Noir in Seal Beach and the beloved Golden Bear in Huntington Beach.
Tickets for the Browne act go on sale Nov. 30.
On Valentine's Day (Feb. 14 for you nonromantics), another great concert comes to the Terrace, with Bonnie Raitt making a rare appearance in Long Beach, with guest Maia Sharp. Tickets for that one go on sale Saturday. Raitt was last spotted here at the Women's Conference in 2008.
Raitt and Browne are pretty like-minded performers, performing together at benefit shows for various social and environmental causes. Raitt covered several of Browne's songs, most notably his "My Opening Farewell," on her early records, and brought him up as an opening act back in 1971.
If you've got other plans for Valentine's Day, you can celebrate the holiday early as local promoter/musician Al Williams brings his annual Valentine's Day jazz show to the Terrace on Feb. 9.
MORE: Want more? A bit greedy, aren't you? OK, we've got the North American Star League, with crack video gamers competing onstage at the Center Theater on Dec. 8 and 9; the Long Beach Symphony brings its annual holiday show to the Terrace on Dec. 9; the Long Beach Ballet, under the direction of David Wilcox, returns with "The Nutcracker" to the Terrace for six performances Dec. 15 and 16 and Dec. 22 and 23; and Disney skates into the Arena with "Disney on Ice: Dare to Dream" with nine shows from Jan. 3 to 6.
The Terrace Theater will continue being a hot spot for big-selling comedians, with Lewis Black bringing his "Running on Empty" (coincidentally the name of one of Browne's greatest hits) tour to Long Beach on Dec. 1, and George Lopez coming to the Terrace on Jan. 26.
BIG SCREEN IN BIG TOWN: Long Beach has been through a drought of feature filming of late, relying on the dough brought in by TV stalwarts "Dexter" and the now-done "CSI: Miami." Doesn't much matter because the permit fees are the same for TV as the big screen, but features do look cool on the town's resumé.
Earlier this month, the dry spell ended with crews and talent from the feature biopic "Nina," based on the life of jazz and soul singer Nina Simone, spending a week in Big Town, using the Long Beach Convention Center and Community Hospital Long Beach.
Both buildings played tough roles for themselves.
Despite the fact that Long Beach has a fine and frequently filmed airport, the "Nina" filmmakers used the Convention Center's Seaside Way exterior to play an airport terminal.
Community Hospital didn't have to slip out of its scrubs, but it was called into service to play three different hospitals that Simone was in at various times in her oft-troubled life. Perhaps the fact that "Nina" is working with just a $7 million budget necessitated Community's repeat performances.
Controversy has already sprung up, giving the film some free publicity, over Zoe Saldana, who plays in the title role, as being too light-skinned.
Actor Mike Epps is the film's co-star, playing the role of comedian Richard Pryor, who was a frequent opening act for Simone in the early stages of both performers' career.

Aneurysm in the brainAneurysm - cerebral; Cerebral aneurysm
An aneurysm is a weak area in the wall of a blood vessel that causes the blood vessel to bulge or balloon out. When an aneurysm occurs in a blood vessel of the brain, it is called a cerebral aneurysm.
Aneurysms in the brain occur when there is a weakened area in the wall of a blood vessel. An aneurysm may be present from birth (congenital) or it may develop later in life, such as after a blood vessel is injured.
There are many different types of aneurysms. The most common type is called a berryaneurysm. This type can vary in size from a few millimeters to over a centimeter. Giant berry aneurysms can be bigger than 2 centimeters. These are more common in adults. Multiple berry aneurysms are passed down through families more often than other types of aneurysms.
Other types of cerebral aneurysm involve widening of an entire blood vessel, or they may appear as a "ballooning out" of part of a blood vessel. Such aneurysms can occur in any blood vessel that supplies the brain. Atherosclerosis, trauma, and infection, which can injure the blood vessel wall, can cause cerebral aneurysms.
About 5% of the population has some type of aneurysm in the brain, but only a small number of these aneurysms cause symptoms or rupture. Risk factors include a family history of cerebral aneurysms, and certain medical problems such as polycystic kidney disease, coarctation of the aorta, and endocarditis.
A person may have an aneurysm without having any symptoms. This kind of aneurysm may be found when an MRI or CT scan of the brain is done for another reason.
A cerebral aneurysm may begin to "leak" a small amount of blood. This may cause a severe headache that a patient may describe as "the worst headache of my life." It may be called a thunderclap orsentinel headache. This means the headache could be a warning sign of a rupture days or weeks after the headache first happens.
Symptoms may also occur if the aneurysm pushes on nearby structures in the brain or breaks open (ruptures) and causes bleeding into the brain.
Symptoms depend on the location of the aneurysm, whether it breaks open, and what part of the brain it is pushing on, but theymay include:
- Double vision
- Loss of vision
- Headaches
- Eye pain
- Neck pain
- Stiff neck
A sudden, severe headache is one symptom of an aneurysm that has ruptured. Other symptoms of an aneurysm rupture may include:
- Confusion, lethargy, sleepiness, or stupor
- Eyelid drooping
- Headaches with nausea or vomiting
- Muscle weakness or difficulty moving any part of the body
- Numbness or decreased sensation in any part of the body
- Seizures
- Speech impairment
- Stiff neck (occasionally)
- Vision changes (double vision, loss of vision)
NOTE: A ruptured aneurysm is a medical emergency. Call your local emergency number, such as 911.
Exams and Tests
An eye exam may show signs of increased pressure in the brain, including swelling of the optic nerve or bleeding into the retina of the eye. A brain and nervous system exam may show abnormal eye movement, speech, strength, or sensation.
The following tests may be used to diagnose cerebral aneurysm and determine the cause of bleeding in the brain:
- Cerebral angiography or spiral CT scan angiography of the head to reveal the location and size of the aneurysm
- Cerebrospinal fluid exam (spinal tap)
- CT scan of the head
- Electroencephalogram (EEG)
- MRI of the head, or MRI angiogram
- Spinal tap
Two common methods are used to repair an aneurysm:
- Clipping isdone during open brain surgery (craniotomy).
- Endovascular repair is most often done. It usuallyinvolves a "coil" or coiling. This is a less invasive way to treat some aneurysms.
If an aneurysm in the brain ruptures, it is an emergency that needs medical treatment and often requires surgery. Endovascular repair is more often used when this happens.
Even if there are no symptoms, your doctor may order treatment to prevent a future, possibly fatal, rupture.
Not all aneurysms need to be treated right away. Those that are very small (less than 3 mm) are less likely to break open.
Your doctor will help you decide whether it is safer to have surgery to block off the aneurysm before it can break open (rupture).
Someone may be too ill to have surgery, or it may be too dangerous to treat the aneurysm because of its location.
Treatment of a ruptured aneurysm may involve:
- Being admitted to the hospital's intensive care unit (ICU)
- Complete bedrest and activity restrictions
- Drainage of blood from the brain area (cerebral ventricular drainage)
- Drugs to prevent seizures
- Medicines to control headaches and blood pressure
- Medicines through a vein (IV)to prevent infection
Once the aneurysm is repaired, prevention of stroke from a blood vessel spasm may be needed. You may receive medicines through an IV and treatments to prevent high blood pressure.
Outlook (Prognosis)
How well you do depends on many things. Those who are in deep comas after an aneurysm rupture generally do not do as well as those with less severe symptoms.
Ruptured cerebral aneurysms are often deadly. Of those who survive, about 1 in 4 will have some sort of permanent disability.
Possible Complications
- Increased pressure inside the skull
- Loss of movement in one or more parts of the body
- Loss of sensation of any part of the face or body
- Seizures
- Stroke
- Subarachnoid hemorrhage
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Go to the emergency room or call the local emergency number (such as 911) if you have a sudden or severe headache, especially if you also have nausea, vomiting, seizures, or any other neurological symptoms.
Also call if you have a headache that is unusual for you, especially if it is severe or your worst headache ever.
There is no known way to prevent the formation of a berry aneurysm. Treating high blood pressure may reduce the chance that an existing aneurysm will rupture. Controlling risk factors for atherosclerosis may reduce the likelihood of some types of aneurysms.
If unruptured aneurysms are discovered in time, they can be treated before causing problems.
The decision to repair an unruptured cerebral aneurysm is based on the size and location of the aneurysm, and the patient's age and general health. The risks involved in both operating and watchful waiting must be carefully considered.

Medications taken by mouth (Oral drugs)
Interaction Rating: Moderate Be cautious with this combination.
Talk with your health provider.
Black walnut hulls contain a large amount of chemicals called tannins. Tannins absorb substances in the stomach and intestines. Taking black walnut along with medications taken by mouth can decrease how much medicine your body absorbs, and decrease the effectiveness of your medicine. To prevent this interaction, take black walnut at least one hour after medications you take by mouth.
Dosing considerations for Black Walnut.The appropriate dose of black walnut depends on several factors such as the user's age, health, and several other conditions. At this time there is not enough scientific information to determine an appropriate range of doses for black walnut. Keep in mind that natural products are not always necessarily safe and dosages can be important. Be sure to follow relevant directions on product labels and consult your pharmacist or physician or other healthcare professional before using.

LONG BEACH — A man reportedly fatally shot another man near a Long Beach gas station Thursday, then fired at a Long Beach police patrol car and was critically wounded when two officers fired back, authorities said.
The first shooting occurred shortly after midnight near the intersection of Pacific Coast Highway and Pacific Avenue, Long Beach police spokeswoman Lisa Massacani said.
"Officers were in the area, and they heard the shots fired," Massacani said.
The officers went to the location and saw the suspect walking away from the scene, Massacani said. As an officer was stopping the patrol car, the suspect fired at the vehicle, and bullets hit the windshield and hood, she said.
"An officer-involved shooting occurred, and the suspect was wounded in the upper body," Massacani said.
The suspect and the man he shot were taken to a hospital in critical condition, she said. No officer was hurt.
The man wounded by the suspect died a few hours later, Massacani said. He was identified only as a black male in his 30s. The suspect, who is in his 60s, remained hospitalized in critical condition, she said. Their names were not immediately released.
Westbound lanes of PCH were closed while authorities investigated the shooting. By daybreak, PCH had been reopened, but a section of Pacific Avenue north of PCH remained closed.
Officers could be seen conducting an investigation at a Mobil gas station near the intersection of PCH and Pacific, a news camera crew at the scene reported. The Los Angeles County District Attorney's office also will conduct an independent investigation of the shooting, as is standard in officer-involved shootings where a suspect is hit, Massacani said.

Dean DeLeo from Stone Temple Pilots talks Chester Bennington, tour, and more
Listen to Stone Temple Pilots on iHeartRadio
(Gater 98.7) - Back in February Stone Temple Pilots fired Scott Weiland, and Chester is now handling lead vocals. Dean DeLeo called into the Gater 98.7 in Palm Beaches, where he talked about the new addition to STP.
How did Chester get involved? Dean picked up the phone and called him. Yep, it was that simple. DeLeo says, "This means a lot to him (Chester). This probably means more to him than us right now."
Dean went on to add that "Chester wants to honor not only the catalog and the legacy of this band (Stone Temple Pilots), but carve out a new legacy and a new place for people to listen and be moved by music. He is approaching this with everything he's got."
Stone Temple Pilots with Chester Bennington's debut single "Out Of Time" reached the number one spot on both the Mediabase Active Rock and Mainstream Rock charts a couple weeks ago, and they are just about to finish up work on a new 5 song EP.
Listen to the full interview below:
