New Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi is asserting his authority in the boldest move he's made since assuming the nation's top job.
Update at 4:08 p.m. More Details
The Muslim Brotherhood's Morsi, Egypt's first democratically elected president, ordered the retirement of Defense Minister Field Marshal Hussein Tantawi and Chief of Staff Gen. Sami Annan. He also restored to the office of the president powers taken from it by the military before his election.
NPR's Leila Fadel called the move "a huge shift in the military-civilian balance in this government."
"This is really quite a historic moment," she told Guy Raz, host of weekends on All Things Considered. "For the first time, you have a civilian leader overturning a military decision. And this allows for Morsi to basically take all the powers of the state in his hands: legislative and executive, and cuts SCAF, or the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces, out of decision making going forward."
The two men who replaced Tantawi and Annan are also from the SCAF, raising speculation, Leila says, "that this was done in coordination with at least part of the military council."
Audio for the rest of Leila's conversation with Guy will be available at 7 p.m.
And here's our original post:
NPR's Leila Fadel reports to our Newscast Desk that Morsi just forced the country's two top generals to retire and revoked a constitutional declaration by the generals that had stripped many of his presidential powers.
"A spokesman for Egypt's president says that Morsi demanded that the country's chief of staff and defense minister Mohamed Hussein Tantawi retire, along with the second in command of the military council, Sami Annan.
"The move sent shock waves through the political establishment. Morsi has so far been hesitant to challenge the military authority. Until today, the country's top generals still held most of the reins of power.
"But on Sunday, the spokesman Yasser Ali said in a news conference that the president also cancelled a controversial constitutional amendment that gave the top generals vast powers, including veto power over all governmental decisions.
"He appointed a new defense minister, Abedl Fattah el Sissi and appointed a new Vice President Mahmoud Mekki, Leila Fadel NPR NEWS, Cairo."
It's WEEKENDS on ALL THINGS CONSIDERED from NPR News. I'm Guy Raz.
We're going to head to the campaign trail and the Olympics in a moment, but first to another developing story we're following out of Egypt today. That country's newly elected president, Mohammed Morsi, has ousted several top military officials, including the powerful defense minister, Field Marshal Mohamed Hussein Tantawi, and the army's chief of staff, Sami Anan. Morsi has also annulled a constitutional declaration issued by the military that curbed the power of the president. Several military officials have been suspicious of Morsi's intentions. The new president was once a leading figure in the Muslim Brotherhood.
NPR's Leila Fadel joins us from Cairo for more. Leila, this is potentially explosive. First, is there any word on whether the generals or Tantawi have actually accepted their forced resignations?
LEILA FADEL, BYLINE: Well, the decision was effective immediately. The retirement was forced upon them, and they were honored with medals, and they've already been replaced. And the new defense minister and chief of staff were sworn in tonight. So whether or not they have accepted is really beside the point. And also, there are reports that actually this was done in coordination with at least part of the military council.
RAZ: Now, when Morsi was elected earlier this year, there was a sense that his powers as president would be very limited. How does the canceling of the military's constitutional declaration change those powers?
FADEL: Well, this is actually really quite a historic moment. For the first time, you have a civilian leader overturning a military decision. And this allows for Morsi to basically take all the powers of the state in his hands - legislative and executive - and cuts SCAF, or the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces, out of decision making going forward.
RAZ: Has there been any reaction outside military circles to the decisions so far, Leila?
FADEL: So far, this has actually been quite welcomed. A lot of other political factions and observers have been waiting for Morsi to actually confront the military on this power grab they made right before he was elected as president. This constitutional addendum that Morsi annulled today basically gave SCAF power over all governmental decisions, and now he's cut them out. So this is seen as a civilian government asserting his authority over a military that has really tried to keep control despite an election here.
RAZ: It's a pretty risky move, though, right? I mean, is there any possibility that parts of the military could - I don't know - could rebel against this?
FADEL: I think it is definitely a risky move on the part of Morsi, not only because parts of the military council are likely unhappy about this, but also now Morsi is a completely empowered president at a very challenging time in Egypt. So now, all the blame and responsibility of the state is on his shoulders. But the military council is not a uniform body, and a new defense minister is a member of that same council, so it's clear that Morsi made the decision with some of these powerful generals at the same time.
RAZ: But there's no question it strengthens his hand, Morsi's hand.
FADEL: Yes, it definitely does. At this point, there's a huge shift in the military-civilian balance in this government. Suddenly, this is a civilian-led government for the first time. And the first almost two months of Morsi's presidency, he had no power. All the decisions were in the military council's hand. Now, all the decisions are in Morsi's hand.
RAZ: That's NPR Leila Fadel in Cairo. Leila, thanks so much.
FADEL: Thank you for having me. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

ALA Interns Program
ALA Committee Interns Dinner at 2008 Annual Conference in Anaheim
Date: Sunday, June 29, 2008
Time: 7:00-8:30 pm
Place: La Brea Bakery Cafe
1556 Disneyland Drive
Anaheim, CA 92802
Phone (714) 490-0233
RSVPs aren't required, but will ensure we make a reservation big enough for all who plan to attend. Send RSVPs or dinner questions to firstname.lastname@example.com
Map of the Convention Center and La Brea Bakery Cafe
The interns program began in 1988. Initiated by the ALA Membership Committee, it was designed to provide an avenue for interested members to become more easily involved in ALA activities and to introduce new people and ideas to ALA committee discussions and decision-making. The hope is that the experience gained by the interns will aid their official appointment on an association committee.
Interns Program Guidelines:
- Any member who has never held an appointment or elected office in the Association can be appointed as an intern.
- Interns will be appointed by the ALA President-Elect. Names of possible interns will be forwarded to the ALA President-Elect by individuals, committee chairs, and others.
- All ALA committees may have interns. It is voluntary for a committee. The intern position is an extra membership slot on the committee.
- Each intern will serve for a period of one or two years. After a two-year period, the intern should not be appointed to another ALA committee as an intern. Successful interns should be considered by the ALA President-Elect as candidates for appointment as members of ALA committee. Service as an intern is not counted in accumulating the four years of maximum consecutive served on a committee.
- The committee chair will determine the most appropriate duties for the intern for the intern on a specific committee. Duties will be depend in large part on the nature of the work of a particular committee. An intern should participate fully in the work of the committee to which she/he is appointed.
- The committee will determine the voting status of the intern.
- If the committee meets outside of the Midwinter Meeting and the Annual Conference, the committee will determine if the intern will attend the meeting.
- An intern is expected to attend both the Midwinter Meeting and the Annual Conference committee meetings.

Overall, when the available data are critically reviewed, the metabolic and possibly the reproductive implications of the two additional phenotypes proposed by the Rotterdam 2003 study are unclear and relatively poorly characterized. It should also be recognized that any differences from normal are modest at best. Finally, we should note that the numbers of studies examining these two new phenotypes and their fertility or metabolic consequence have been few and relatively small in number, and additional studies are needed to confirm these findings.
However, we recognize that emerging data indicate that patients with hyperandrogenism and polycystic ovaries, but apparently normal ovulation, demonstrate in vivo abnormalities of insulin action, albeit milder than those patients originally defined by the NIH 1990 criteria. These data suggest that this group of individuals may be at greater risk for the metabolic consequences, including type 2 DM, compared with healthy controls, although this remains to be confirmed. As such, and based on current evidence, it may be possible to expand the phenotypic limits of PCOS to include this group of women ( Table 3 ) ( 45 ).
Modified 1990 NIH/NICHD Criteria
Modified from Ref. 44 .
Clinical ( e.g. hirsutism) and/or biochemical hyperandrogenism ( e.g. elevated levels of total or free testosterone).
Oligoanovulation and/or polycystic ovarian morphology.
Including, but not limited to, 21-hydroxylase deficient nonclassic adrenal hyperplasia, thyroid dysfunction, hyperprolactinemia, neoplastic androgen secretion, or drug-induced androgen excess.
Modified 1990 NIH/NICHD Criteria
Modified from Ref. 44 .
It may also be instructive to determine the basis for this urge to expand the definition of PCOS. Is it our desire as physicians to give a name to a disorder we are only beginning to understand, much as the ancients assigned Gods to all manners of unknown? Is it a desire for vindication because the sonographic appearance of the ovaries has been largely ignored by American investigators and by the NIH criteria for defining PCOS for over 15 yr? Or is it because we believe that our patients will be better off, in some fashion, knowing that they have PCOS and not simply ovulatory dysfunction or hirsutism?
In conclusion, although it is clear that polycystic ovaries are a frequent feature of PCOS, the widespread adoption of the diagnostic criteria proposed in the 2003 Rotterdam meeting proceedings should be considered premature, particularly when assessing the available evidence, and may have unintended negative effects on research, clinical practice, and quality of life. However, this controversy does highlight the immediate and considerable need for additional investigation into PCOS and its associated phenotypes and morbidities. Considering that PCOS conservatively affects about one in 15 reproductive-age women and that the health care-related economic burden to the United States alone exceeds 4 billion annually ( 16 ), research in this area has been clearly insufficient. This is one priority that we can all agree on.
The closest good beach is about 30 km away at Hook of Holland . Here you will find a very fine sand beach with good swimming and enough entertainment.
For a more urban-party beach experience head to Scheveningen where you can find everything beach-party addicts dream about; Endless rows of beachside bars, restaurants and discothèques and a boulevard along a splendid fine-sand beach. It can get very crowded here. Take the train to Den Haag Centraal Station and Tram 9 subsequently.
The main shopping areas in the center are the 51.919993 4.477304 Lijnbaan and the 51.920675 4.484503 Hoogstraat . Both are pedestrianised. The Lijnbaan , which runs straight south from the Weena (close to Rotterdam Centraal ) was the first pedestrianised shopping street in the world when it was built in 1953. Now it is more of an average shopping street with average shops. In weekends it's very crowded. Linking the Lijnbaan with the Hoogstraat is the 51.920066 4.480523 Beurstraverse , dubbed Koopgoot (Buying-gutter). A subterrainean passage, also connecting to Beurs metro station. It's all rather big and somewhat strange for a Dutch city, but it fits perfectly into the Rotterdam aspiration of being different. If you're looking for it, ask for the Koopgoot , as the official name is little known.
The Beurstraverse gives direct access to the city's main department stores:
There are about 12 larger and smaller markets dotted around Rotterdam. Most of them are enjoyable places to walk through.
Bruge Pom Pom Hat In Grey The Fashion Bible mvIAxnT2
, Ds. Jan Scharpstraat 298 ( Binnenrotte, Metro: Blaak ). Market stands: M-Sa 10:00-20:00, Su 12:00-18:00; Albert Heijn: M-Sa 08:00-21:00, Su 10:00-20:00; Bars and restaurants: 10:00-00:00 . Opened in 2014 by a Dutch princess (who else!), It is a quite remarkable building which is worth a visit per se . It more like a hybrid between a market and a shopping centre. Besides the large market hall, there are also residential, office sections, retail sections. Last but not least the Markthal houses a wide variety of bars, food stalls and restaurants. Enjoy meals or bites from mediterean or asian origin or try the famous Rotterdam fries of Bram Ladage. ( updated Sep 2017 )
With a typical (at least for the Netherlands) Rotterdam skyline of skyscrapers, river Nieuwe Maas and Hotel New York Fenix Food Factory offers food/bites and beers on a unique venue. The building itself is an old warehouse which did not lose much of its original character.

Doing something for his alma mater
That being the case, he didn't have to look very far to decide what to do for his Eagle Scout community service project. He knew he wanted to do something for TLC.
"I'm like, you know, this would be a great project!" he said. "I could give back to the place that's given me so much."
TLC recently received a USDA grant to put in gardens so children can grow and eat fresh food. The project will teach them about science and nutrition and get them excited about eating vegetables.
Kurtis decided to build and install the planter boxes so they'd be ready for seedlings.
He made plans, recruited other scouts to help, and scheduled deliveries of soil and bark dust. Then, on Saturday, he led the crew that leveled the garden area, assembled planters and filled them with dirt. During free moments, Kurtis and his crew cleaned the playground equipment, too.
Throughout the effort, Kurtis said, he emphasized that this wasn't his project, but a joint effort by the Scouts. "When we help others, it's 'we,' as a group," he said.
Kurtis has been in Scouting since he was about 10, when he asked his parents if he could become a Cub Scout. "I just fell in love with it," he said.
He's now a member of Boy Scout Troop 266, which meets at the Methodist Church.
He also is active in Sea Scouts, a Scouting program that focuses on sailing.He and the other Sea Scouts and leader Ron Peterson take out the Hesperus, a 20-foot sailboat, every few weeks.
A purser in his troop, he recently demonstrated his knot-tying skills at a regatta competition.
In addition, he is on the staff at the Boy Scout camp Adventure Cove in Cloverdale. Being on the camp staff lets him use many of the skills he's learned in scouting, including survival, lifesaving, communication and organization skills, he said.
"Scouting has really helped prepare me," he said.
Those skills also are useful at TLC when he monitors children's play and runs educational activities as an assistant to the teachers. He said he loves talking to the children and watching them learn. He also likes working with the staff, which includes his mother, TLC Director Wendy Heston, and his sister and grandmother, too.
Working at the preschool has given him a new perspective, he said. As a child, he couldn't see the sense in the reprimands he received on occasion. But now he understands what the teachers must do to keep order and help children learn proper behavior.
"Now I can empathize with the kids and with the staff, too," he said.

Name: Brody
Age: 10
Breed: Maine Coon mix
Owner: Yvonne B
Hometown: Coachella Valley, CA
Likes: sitting in the soft chair on the patio, crunch treats, drinking water from the tap, lots of pets, tripping mommy is also fun
Dislikes: having his nails trimmed, taking medicine, getting a hair cut
Yvonne B says:
Brody is my special friend. He was rejected by his own cat mommy in the home where he was born so he had to be bottle fed from the beginning of his little life. When he came to me he was not well. He had worms very badly and needed care. Because he does not like taking medicine I had to be very careful when treating him. Today Brody is healthy and happy. He does have to still have his hair cut because we live in the desert and it's too hot for his thick Maine Coon coat. But we have worked that all out, I let him walk around freely on the table and trim him. It's not always pretty, but he is much happier without that heavy fur. He is my little love.

Michael G. Hammond: Approving amnesty will not help the Republican PartyBY MICHAEL G. HAMMOND
June 11. 2013 4:49PM
Watching the platitudes in Friday's New Hampshire Union Leader from five largely moderate former chairmen of the New Hampshire Republican Party on behalf of the Obama-backed immigration bill makes you realize why our party's fortunes have plummeted.
There are many things that Hispanic voters care about. Granting amnesty to those who ignore our laws is the worst way to try to reach out to them.
In the early 1980s, on behalf of U.S. Sen. Paula Hawkins, R-Fla., I drafted the language that created Radio Marti. As a result of Sen. Hawkins' efforts, the Miami Cuban community remained firm supporters of the GOP for a generation.
The 1986 Simpson-Mazzoli amnesty bill, on the other hand, turned California from a "swing state" into a rabidly liberal state. And Hispanics were less favorable to the Republicans after the passage of the GOP-sponsored bill than before. At least 11.5 million persons were subsequently convinced to enter or stay in our country illegally because of it.
Since the former chairmen have, unlike me, apparently not read the new immigration bill, let me clarify a few things:
First, the bill merely cuts some, but not most, government benefits for legalized residents.
Second, there are currently visa programs for high-skilled and agricultural workers, and it is possible to improve these without turning Washington into Sacramento.
Third, if the bill's draftsmen thought anything effective was going to be done about border security, they wouldn't have granted legal residency to 11.5-20 million illegals, irrespective of what happens on the border.
Fourth, having had a great amount of experience with the flawed "Brady check" system for guns, I can tell you that requiring the government's permission before you can work (the so-called E-Verify system) is going to be an Orwellian disaster.
Fifth, for the 40 percent of illegals who come into this country legally, but overstay their visas, we may know who they are under this bill, but not where they are. The situation would essentially be like the status quo.
Sixth, depending on the outcome of the Defense of Marriage Act case that will be decided by the U.S. Supreme Court this month, the amnesty bill will undoubtedly be a federal guarantor of same-sex marriage.
Seventh, for those who opposed "Real ID," the "fraud-resistant" Social Security card will almost certainly be biometric. But, like they say, we need to "pass it so we can know what's in it."
Eighth, how many Tsarnaevs are we guaranteeing legal residence? We don't know. There will be a "terrorist screening," probably against a "watch list," but that process didn't prevent the Boston Marathon bombing.
Ninth, many of the signatories of Friday's article were responsible for giving us Mitt Romney, a genuinely horrible candidate. The fact that he couldn't get support from a whole bunch of demographics shouldn't suggest that we add up to 8.4 million voters whose circumstances (independent of their race) indicate that they will vote overwhelmingly liberal.
In short, you don't shoot yourself in the head to avoid having someone else shoot you in the foot.
Shame on the short-sighted GOP chairmen.
Michael G. Hammond of Dunbarton worked for the U.S. Senate for 18 years, most of that time as general counsel to the Senate Steering Committee.

Hi All,
As you may have guessed, today marks the day that I post my 1,000th post on this site, and I am running a huge competition to mark this historic triumph.
Before we get in to the mix with the competition, please allow me two minutes to bask in this glory. When I first set out creating this site almost two and a half years ago, I had no idea that it would quite go so far. Having now reviewed well in excess of 1,000 products I have to say I am nowhere telling you what the best chocolate bar in the world is (although the Hotel Chocolat 85% still holds the lead of course!), but I guess that is half the fun and it is a never ending process.
Going forwards, I want to make the site even bigger, even better and that can only happen with your continual input. Your requests and comments are what make the site so enjoyable to run - so please continue to contribute to this ongoing project.
It is at this point I would ask for you to do two things for me, through any method you wish, be it e-mail, comment, smoke signals, twitter ... can you please tell me two things ...
1. What you enjoy about the site
2. How you think I can improve it
Thanks for all your contributions to the site so far - I appreciate each every one of them. Please keep reading and adding your input. Now I have blabbed on for long enough let's get on with the competition.
Over the past 2.5 years Hotel Chocolat have been a key supporter of this website. They have sent samples of their latest products for the majority of this project, and given me the license to say what think whether it be bad or good.... it has to be said it is mostly good :D
In yet another example of amazing goodwill, Hotel Chocolat are sponsoring this 1000th post spectacular competition, and are offering a Mini Chocolatiers Table as 1st prize (See HERE), as well as three boxes of Sleekster Chocolate Selections (See HERE) for three lucky runners-up.
All you have to do is send an e-mail to Jim{@]Chocolatemission.net with the answer to the following, please include 1000th post competition in the subject, as well as your address for potential prizes to be sent ...
Q. Hotel Chocolat have recently just released a product named the 'Peepster - Summer Sizzler'. What four mini slabs are contained within this selection?
Winners are to be drawn at random from all correct entries. Please ensure entries are received by May 8th 2010. Please lets make this as big as possible so plaster this competition over facebook and twitter ... there will be an extra special small prize for the person who best exemplifies that they have got the competition message out there :D
Usual competition rules apply...
1) One entry per person
2) UK entrants only
3) Anything I say goes :)

Yes! We're back! Me and my new pounds! Yay!
I had a wonderful vacation in Philadelphia. I've lived there some years ago, so it's not like I needed to visit all the turistic sites, I just used my time to be with my friends and... eat. What else did I do?
I went to a big Bar Mitzvah party!
I've walked arround town a LOT!
I ate tons of Kugel (love that stuff)!
I've visited a famous bakery in Philly and was allowed into the kitchen where they were baking cookies. The baker was so nice to give me a bag of freshly baked ones still warm from the oven. Oh lucky me!
I went to the Reading Terminal Market and ate soft pretzels.
I've spent a day in New York and I met and laughed with two crazy french food bloggers !
I've seen squirrels in Central Park and tried to take pictures of them.
I went to Levain Bakery...
... and ate a huge chocolate chip cookie!
I also had to try Jacques Torres famous cookie.
I've been followed by a group of piegons (maybe the smell of cookies?)...I've bought (and ate) a lot of candy! I've seen the Christmas tree at the Rockefeller Center!

Moving sale at 'Amityville Horror'
New York ? The owner of the New York house made famous in the 1979 film "The Amityville Horror" is holding a moving sale.
The five-bedroom Dutch Colonial on Long Island has been on the market since May for $1.15 million and is under contract. Owner Brian Wilson held a moving sale Saturday. Items included furniture and exercise equipment, not loot from the house's infamous past.
The Oscar-nominated film is based on the story of the Lutz family's brief stay in the house in 1975 after six members of the DeFeo family were shot and killed as they slept. Oldest son Ronald DeFeo Jr. was convicted.
The crime spawned a book and a series of movies that chronicled various supernatural horrors, including visions of walls oozing slime and moving furniture.

Starting a new business in downtown Hendersonville can be tricky, but the city wants to help.
By Emily Weaver
Times-News Staff Writer
Starting a new business in downtown Hendersonville can be tricky, but the city wants to help.
From "welcome bears" to a business-warming how-to guide, Hendersonville's Main Street Economic Restructuring subcommittee brainstormed ways to roll out the welcome mat for new businesses opening in the downtown district.
Board members picked the brain of a local merchant who attended the meeting Wednesday morning inside city hall.
"We need a welcome wagon for new merchants," said Michele Sparks, who opened her ART MoB Studios and Marketplace at 124 Fourth Ave. East in August. "Once you sign a lease, it's like, oh my goodness, now what do I do?"
The first place Sparks went to was the city's building inspections department. Her husband was a building inspector. It seemed like a natural starting place. The department led her to City Zoning Administrator Susan Frady.
"If you come through the (city's) zoning department, we can guide you through the things you need to do," Frady told the board. "We need to get the word out so people know where to start."
Committee member Cindy Jones proposed that they put together a packet of information for start-ups on where to go, who to see and resources that are available to help.
Frady said that for most business entrepreneurs, the first thought is to get a business license, but several start-ups can get lost or feel overwhelmed in the process of everything else they learn they have to do to open.
After a business license, start-ups will have to obtain a building permit from Henderson County Inspections and zoning approval from the city, and must pass a fire inspection. Any mechanical, plumbing or electrical work requires county permits. Facade alterations require a certificate of appropriateness, and signs must comply with ordinances.
"We're glad to sit down with people and go through what needs to be done," Frady said. "Just having that interaction with people and for them to know that they can come to us" would help.
The board discussed getting the packets – once finalized – out to realtors, downtown property owners and the Chamber of Commerce for distribution to incoming businesses.
Main Street Director Lew Holloway said he would look into how they could partner with the Chamber of Commerce to welcome new businesses downtown.
"This is a marvelous process," said Main Street Advisory Chair Tom Orr. "It'll help everybody."
He asked the board about having a possible "welcome bear" that would sit outside a new business for a few weeks as a sign of greeting to let merchants know they are welcome, and let customers know the business is new.
Sparks suggested that it would be helpful for her to have a list of proprietors and merchants operating downtown so she could get to know her neighbors.
Historic Downtown Hendersonville, the city's Main Street group, holds Interact Downtown events at random restaurants on the fourth Wednesday of every month. The after-business-hours social event affords merchants the opportunity to network and get to know what is going on in the district.
Holloway proposed finding ways to highlight new businesses at the events.
Building on an idea that came up at the N.C. Main Street Conference he attended last week, Holloway said they could also consider having a small business incentive program in the city. He suggested that the program could offer small marketing grants to entrepreneurs who go through small business training sessions at Blue Ridge Community College. Business planning services are free to members of the community.

Great grape gadgets
All too often, the manufacturer is trying to reinvent the wheel. That is, there are already products on the market that do the job quite well, some of which have been around for decades.
But on occasion, someone does come up with a marked improvement on the standard. And even more occasionally, something entirely new and different is introduced.
When either situation arises, media folks are among the first to hear about it. But even if an item captures my attention, and makes me want to know more, I am rarely motivated enough to actually request one for testing.
The truth is that wine-related products, whether as indispensable as glasses and corkscrews or as superfluous as coasters and neck tags, are not a frequent topic in this column.
But I do have my personal, well-used and much-appreciated favorites in openers and closers, as well as methods intended to prolong the drinkability of partially consumed wine.
Following are certain wine gadgets that have a permanent place in my kitchen, and the reasons why they earned this utilitarian honor. Let it be known upfront that I have no relationship of any kind with the manufacturers of these products.
Getting the most for your money means not only choosing a wine you like, but also being able to enjoy all of it. Remember, If you pay $30 for a bottle of wine, the cost per ounce is $1.18.
An easy, effective and attractive way to preserve the attributes of what remains in the bottle for several days is offered through a new product called Savino. Initially skeptical when I perused this attractive-looking product online, my first questions were, how is it supposed to work and does it actually do what it claims?
From a design standpoint, it seemed evident that there was no high tech component. No application of an inert gas, no pumping to create at least a partial vacuum, no collapsing bag or similar component.
Savino is a glass cylinder containing a free-floating stopper encircled by a precisely measured rubber membrane. After wine is introduced, the stopper floats on the surface, preventing oxygen from making contact.
The top is then sealed with another stopper device featuring a membrane. It closes off the open space between the floating disc and the entrance to the glass vessel, preventing spillage in the event it is tipped over.
All I can say is, it works. I tested a Savino several times with different wines and different approaches to consumption, waiting at least three days, and on one occasion five days, before consuming the last few ounces. In no case did the wine show signs of oxidation, volatile acidification or off aromas or flavors.
I tried leaving variously three-quarters of a bottle, half a bottle and a quarter of a bottle for three days. Then I tried leaving a quarter of a bottle for five days.
At five days, the wine was beginning to go off, but just beginning. It left me to conclude this deceptively simply device works as well as costly commercial machines that inject increasing amounts of inert gas into a bottle as it is slowly drained.
If you always consume every bottle at a single sitting, you won't need a device like this. If, on the other hand, you'd prefer to enjoy a glass or two over a period of days, visit "Savino" on the Internet.
The device runs $59.95, including shipping. That's not cheap, but it's still a good investment for a consumer of quality wine.
Let's move on to opening the bottle — a colorful and curiously intriguing world filled with every device imaginable, from ivory handled pullers to needle-insertion air pumps.
This world applies entirely to corks, of course. Screw-tops and glass stoppers do not require anything other than manhandling and perhaps a small knife.
By and large the corkscrew still reigns supreme. And, though many do the job poorly, they have somehow managed to survive.
Among them, methods of removing the cork vary. Some lift with a lever, others with gears, handles or threading. Some feature wing handles, wooden bells or colorful plastic casings.
But for ease, simplicity and convenience, nothing beats a double-hinged sommelier corkscrew. It's been around for a while now, and professionals swear by it. It folds up to fit in your pocket, and it can tackle the toughest corks.
The secret is in the double-hinged lever. Unlike its long-lived, single-hinged and still-serviceable older brother, this lever is configured in two steps.
Positioning the shorter first step on the lip of the bottle provides more leverage to free the cork and lift it part way out. Then, using the hinged second step, which puts more than twice the length to work, the cork can be fully extracted with ease.
Many manufacturers offer these handy corkscrews, which also come equipped with a folding knife. They are called double-hinged or double-step sommelier corkscrews and average about $10.
For people who want a fancier, showier opening device, several single-action options are available from numerous companies. Of all the ones I have used, the Pampered Chef model works best.
This handsomely designed unit sports a single lever with a chrome grip. It is simple to operate and extracts even stubborn corks quickly and smoothly.
It's way too big to fit in your pocket, but comes in a nice cloth pull-string carry bag, along with a foil cutter. It runs $34.
When selecting a corkscrew, never settle for a drill spiral, machined from a single piece of metal. It will drill a hole into the cork.
Purchase only a worm spiral — one where a round length of metal has been twisted into an open spiral shape. It will worm its way through the cork, grabbing as it goes.
The last two handy-dandy items will be of interest to sparkling wine lovers. One of them is relatively new, while the other has been around as long as I can remember.
Le Creuset, the French maker of fabulous cookware and kitchen tools, has devised a star-shaped Champagne opener retailing for $25. It looks like a very cool and shiny tool from a sci-fi movie.
This space-age device wraps itself around the bulbous upper part of the sparkling wine cork and gives the user enough leverage to smoothly twist that highly compressed cork from its neck-long, nesting place.
Last, but not at all least, is a tool that many have tried to replicate or improve, but with little success. It's generically referred to as a sparkling wine bottle stopper and is made by a number of manufacturers.
One I've had for years looks and works as good as new, despite being used hundreds of time. There is no apparent wear and the spring inside seems as strong as ever.
Looking on the Internet, I found one that looks exactly like it on Amazon for $4.59 plus shipping.
With that, I think I'll close. Here's to happy hunting and hassle-free imbibing.

A former assistant girl's basketball coach has been charged with having sexual contact with a player while employed by the Richland School District.
RICHLAND — A former assistant girl's basketball coach has been charged with having sexual contact with a player while employed by the Richland School District.
Trevor Dwight Franklin, 26, of Stoutland, was charged on March 13 in Pulaski County following a lengthy investigation by the Missouri Highway Patrol. A warrant has been issued for Franklin's arrest. Bond is set at $50,000.
The charge stems from Franklin's alleged relationship with a minor while employed as a staff member of the district in late 2012.
According to the report filed by Missouri Highway Patrol, Franklin allegedly developed a relationship with an unidentified female student after sharing his phone number with her.
The victim told investigators she was given Franklin's cell phone number during basketball season in order to ask him questions concerning the sport. An exchange of text messages between the student and Franklin began on November 15 and continued through November 30. More than 4,300 messages were shared during that time period with more than 400 more sent to the victim by Franklin than she sent to him.
According to the victim, soon after the text exchanges began, Franklin allegedly brought up sexual topics in his messages. She told officials that the sexual comments made her uncomfortable and she referred to Franklin as a 'creeper.' The victim also told investigators she felt as if Franklin led her to believe that he was interested in her romantically and went so far as to tell her that he planned on divorcing his wife after the first of the year and allegedly invited the victim to come to his home while his family was gone.
The victim said she told him that she would not have sexual intercourse until she was married. He allegedly expressed interest in having a long term relationship with the victim and spoke of the two moving in together after she graduated from high school.
Court documents said the victim said on two different occasions the two kissed. Once at a fast food restaurant and another time while on the Richland High School grounds when school was not in session. Franklin also allegedly held the victims hand on a school bus while traveling home from a basketball game.
At one point in the relationship, Franklin allegedly asked the victim to meet him at his truck while at a basketball tournament at the school in Laquey. The school's surveillance video system confirmed that the two left the building together.
According to the victim, Franklin instructed her to delete all of the text messages they had exchanged, including a photos.
The report contains graphic sexual language that Franklin allegedly used when speaking to the victim and others who knew of the relationship.
According to Richland Superintendent Joe Ridgeway, Franklin is no longer employed by the district. The Richland school district released a statement regarding the situation, "It has recently come to our attention that a former district assistant basketball coach, Mr. Trevor Franklin, was charged with sexual contact with student.
We want to ensure all students, parents, and patrons of the district that we are fully cooperating with law enforcement officials regarding this matter. Mr. Franklin is no longer a coach with the district and his employment ended on or about November 30, 2012. Student safety is the district's top priority and we will continue to ensure that all district students have a safe and positive learning environment."

Mobile devices do it all: games, calls, web browsing, even video conferencing. The problem is, all that PC-like power comes with PC-like vulnerability, and with all that information there for the taking, how can bad guys resist the temptation?
E-thieves are literally banking on people having poor mobile security, and your first defense is strong malware protection. But you'll need more than that in the battle against e-jerks; you'll need knowledge, too.
Inquiring minds want to know the best ways to stay protected while on the go, and we've got your answers to seven common mobile security questions.
Tales of rogue apps hijacking phones and blasting out hundreds of premium rate text messages pop up almost daily. How do you avoid getting bit and becoming part of the zombie phone horde? It's not too hard, actually:
Ummm, not quite. Most free apps stay free by displaying messages from third-party ad networks. Researchers have found that since the ad code comes from remote servers, it could contain all kinds of bad things, including "root" apps that can snatch complete control of your phone.
Fortunately, if you've been taking notes and installed a mobile security app as we suggested, the automatic malware and anti-virus protection should stop rogue code in its tracks.
We're going to swipe a line from The Simpsons' Reverend Lovejoy and go with "Short answer, 'Yes with an if,' long answer, 'No with a but.'" The good news: We've already covered "Yes, with an if," in-depth. Basically, you're pretty safe if you play it smart and have some antispyware and malware protection in place.
Have you even been paying attention?
No! Your cellular carrier's 3G or 4G network should be relatively secure, but Wi-Fi hotspots can be a hacking honeypot. Baddies on the same Wi-Fi network as you can grab any data you send right out of the air, and that's no joke: The FDIC has already encountered cases where cyberpunks swiped banking login information from people using Wi-Fi.
Not even mobile security apps can protect against that. Seriously: Don't mess around with anything sensitive if you're not on 3G, 4G or a trusted, secure Wi-Fi network.
Alternative question: "Can't I harass my Facebook friends two seconds sooner if I disabled the screen lock password? Time is money blah blah blah." You're right! But even though ditching password protection lets you satisfy your Fruit Ninja addiction a split-second faster, it lets anybody who picks your phone up off the bar get to your goods just as quickly.
Slap a password on your phone unless you want Creepy Stalker Guy sifting through your contacts and scribbling down your friends' intimate details. It's on you if he calls your Mom and starts mouth breathing into the phone.
The doomsday scenario has occurred: Your phone has been pilfered! It should take the thieves a while to figure out your screen lock password. (You did password protect your phone, right?) Once they're in, though, all your juicy data belongs to them….
UNLESS you're able to either physically locate your device or remotely wipe the information while the thief is still punching in random number combinations to unlock screen, that is. Webroot's SecureAnywhere Mobile Premiere for Android devices lets you track down your device using GPS, lock it down or scrub your data completely from anywhere there's an internet connection.
Seven common mobile security questions, seven solutions. Go. Be Mobile.

Jack Parker's career
Jack Parker's career
Jack Parker is stepping away after 40 years as the head coach of the Boston University men's hockey team.
Parker is one of the most distinguished coaches in NCAA history, with three national titles to his resume. The most recent, shown here, came in 2009.
Parker had 894 career wins when he announced his departure. That's more than any other coach had with one school in NCAA history.
Parker earned berths in the NCAA tournament 24 times before announcing his retirement. He also won 11 conference titles and 21 Beanpot championships.
As a player at BU, Parker (center, with John Cooke and Bill Riley Jr.) was on teams that finished fourth (1966) and second (1967) in the NCAA.
Parker coached dozens of players who went on to success in the NHL and the Olympics, including four players ( Jim Craig, Mike Eruzione, Jack O'Callahan, Dave Silk, left to right, with Parker) who were on the 1980 gold medal-winning team.
Parker, shown on March 9, 1975, won NCAA Coach of the Year honors for his work that year.
By 1995, on the verge of his second national title, Parker had joined the ranks of legendary Boston college hockey coaches such as BC's Len Ceglarski, left, Northeastern's Fernie Flaman, second from left, and Harvard's Bill Cleary, right.
Then-Governor William Weld welcomed Parker and the BU team to the State House after it won the national title in 1995.
In late 1995, Parker led the BU team through the on-ice paralysis of freshman Travis Roy. Parker hung Roy's jersey at each of the team's games that year.
In 1997, Parker considered accepting the Bruins' head coaching position. But he ultimately opted against it and remained at BU, where he would record hundreds of more victories.
Late in his career, Parker matched wits against BC coach Jerry York. The pair, whose schools shared opposite of Commonwealth Ave, competed often for the same pool of potential players.
Parker's final appearance in the Beanpot championship game was a loss to York's BC team in 2012.
Late in 2012, Parker came under fire after a BU panel found that his team, riddled with off-ice problems, had a "culture of sexual entitlement."
Parker led his team to the Hockey East playoffs in 2013 at the time of his retirement announcement. But his final game at the Beanpot, a tournament that may forever be associated with him, was a 7-4 loss to Harvard in the consolation game.

Information for Patients
Deep Vein Thrombosis
Also called: DVT
Deep vein thrombosis, or DVT, is a blood clot that forms in a vein deep in the body. Most deep vein clots occur in the lower leg or thigh. If the vein swells, the condition is called thrombophlebitis. A deep vein thrombosis can break loose and cause a serious problem in the lung, called a pulmonary embolism.
Sitting still for a long time can make you more likely to get a DVT. Some medicines and disorders that increase your risk for blood clots can also lead to DVTs. Common symptoms are
- Warmth and tenderness over the vein
- Pain or swelling in the part of the body affected
- Skin redness
Treatment includes medicines to ease pain and inflammation, break up clots and keep new clots from forming. Keeping the affected area raised and applying moist heat can also help. If you are taking a long car or plane trip, take a break, walk or stretch your legs and drink plenty of liquids.

Health Problems in Pregnancy
Every pregnancy has some risk of problems. The causes can be conditions you already have or conditions you develop. They also include being pregnant with more than one baby, previous problem pregnancies, or being over age 35. They can affect your health and the health of your baby.
If you have a chronic condition, you should talk to your health care provider about how to minimize your risk before you get pregnant. Once you are pregnant, you may need a health care team to monitor your pregnancy. Examples of common conditions that can complicate a pregnancy include
- Heart disease
- High blood pressure
- Kidney problems
- Autoimmune disorders
- Sexually transmitted diseases
- Diabetes
- Cancer
- Infections
Other conditions that can make pregnancy risky can happen while you are pregnant - for example, gestational diabetes and Rh incompatibility. Good prenatal care can help detect and treat them.
Some discomforts, like nausea, back pain, and fatigue, are common during pregnancy. Sometimes it is hard to know what is normal. Call your doctor or midwife if something is bothering or worrying you.

I have a new tasty shredded chicken recipe for you! It is amazing and holds it's own to any other shredded chicken out there. BBQ chicken is great, buffalo chicken is great, but this new Salsa Chicken can stand up to any other and delivers one fabulous flavor and a great texture to fall in love with.
And what's not to fall in love with here? This tender, juicy chicken is slow cooked with a fresh salsa mixture. Lot's of fresh veggies here and spices to add more flavor. It's a versatile dish too with too many possibilities to list them all.
You can use it as:
Tacos, with some cheese, guac, and sour cream. Enchiladas, wrapped in tortillas and baked with sauce and cheese. Breakfast Burritos, wrapped in tortilla with scrambled eggs (so tasty). A sandwich, on a soft bun with some lettuce and tomato. As a main dish, with a side of grilled veggies. Nachos, piled on top of crispy tortilla chips with extra jalapenos, lettuce, tomato and cheese. Quesadillas, grilled inside a tortilla with gooey cheese.

"Entrée," read the cabaret-like neon sign at the Design Museum London . With it, a red arrow flexed itself and curved down to seduce visitors into its dark barrel-vault entrance. Inside: holographic images of Dita Von Tess (the "queen of burlesque"), a fetish room with photographs by David Lynch, and a recreation of Christian Louboutin 's studio—with shoes from his past collections to celebrate the iconic designer's Angara Solitaire Round Tanzanite Pendant with Diamond Bale OHyretzbZ
It's been a red-hot career for Christian Louboutin. From a boy who admired the dancers' ability to remain sure-footed at the Folies Bergère to launching his own business in Paris in 1992, Monsieur Louboutin has always been passionate about high-fashion shoe design.
And it shows. The trademark red soles have become a status symbol that posses more allure than any other shoe brand on the market. "Red is more than a color. It is a symbol of love, of blood, of passion," said Louboutin in an interview. Louboutin has shown the world the artistry and theatricality of his shoe design from stilettos to lace-up boots, studded sneakers, and bejeweled pumps.

But let's talk men's wear. Although more popular of recent times, Louboutin has been making men's shoes for friends and for special collaborations throughout his career. The first men's boutique opened in Paris in September of 2011, followed by a location in New York and London in 2012. The latest edition: a West Hollywood boutique at 657 North Robertson Boulevard that marks the largest selection of Christian Louboutin men's accessories on the West Coast.
Pin It The store itself is a powerhouse of luxury goods. The boutique's exterior façade is expertly laid out with geometric Basaltina stone tiles to create a herringbone pattern, while two august Cyprus trees frame either side of the entrance. Inside, meticulous details of rich materials crafted by artisans from around the world are used to create a masculine retail environment. As seen in the men's boutiques in Paris and New York, diamond-paneled leather walls (hand-embroidered with various shoe patterns from Louboutin's own designs) offer a luxurious background to display the designer's red-sole creations. Pleated turquoise leather wallpaper, created by 212box, adorns the walls behind the signature men's metal circle displays. Additionally, laser-cut white cowhide crisscrosses decorate the wall behind the cash desk to form a puzzled patchwork. It's truly a work of art!
