There's lots to talk about this Cookbook Wednesday. Something tells me I better not jibber jabber too much and get right to it!
There's something you don't know about me, well actually there are quite a few things, lol…This one thing relates to food. There are more "one things" that pertain to food, that you don't know, but this one thing is simply a word. The word is foodie or foody however you spell it. I detest it! I don't know why. As the girl in the diner repeatedly reminds me "it is what it is."
Which brings me to this week's Cookbook-Give-A-Way. There are those who are huge fans of cooking shows. I am not one of those people. (no foodie, no foodtv either) I do watch Chopped every now and again but I rationalize by convincing myself I am not watching the "pros." I'm entertained by the amazing things people can do with food when left with a jumbled basket of ingredients to transform.
However, I do consider myself a cookbook collector and to me, there is always room on the shelf for just one more cookbook:) But, there isn't a need to have room for duplicate copies unless, it's a very special book. (not that all books aren't special in their own way:)
Cookbook Give-A-Way
There were 5 entries in last week's Cookbook-Give-A-Way. Come on you "guys!" How am I going to make room on these shelves if I can't share my duplicates. Give them Away!? I'm tryin' I'm tryin'. So, this week, leave a comment below as to how you feel about that word, OR your feelings on the concept of food.tv.
And now for the cookbooks you too may be adding to your shelves. (if you are not in the US, not to worry, if you are a regular reader of monthsofediblecelebrations, and don't have any problems receiving mail from the US, you too can enter this give-a-way:) (in other words it has to be really simple for me to be able to mail it, lol)
First up we have Bobby Flay's Grilling For Life.
From Publishers Weekly:
Even though each recipe in Flay's new guide to grilling is accompanied by an analysis provided by nutritionist Joy Bauer (including number of calories and grams of carbs, sugar, fat, sodium and fiber), the Food Network star insists this is not a diet cookbook. Flay's goal, he says, is not to encourage high-protein living, but rather to give readers the nutritional information they need to support a healthy diet. Written with the help of Stephanie Banyas and Sally Jackson, the introduction and headnotes capture Flay's tone and provide clear direction and interesting tips…
Since today is National Lobster Day, I thought it only fitting to include Bobby Flay's recipe for Grilled Lobster Tails with Hot Ginger-Green Onion Vinaigrette. If you were looking for a more traditional recipe to share on Lobster Day, you might want to pop by the recipe I posted for Lobster Newburg a la Bookbinder's. (Bookbinder's was a legendary seafood restaurant located in Philadelphia's historic Old City.) The history of Lobster a la Newburg can be found at Delmonico's. You might also want to check out this "Cranky Lobster Dish." It seems Forbes Magazine will be celebrating today also:) BTW, "officially" National Lobster Day was recently (2015) proclaimed to be Sept. 25th by a vote of the U.S. Senate.
I haven't heard anything about Emeril Lagasse in a while. It's rather ironic, but when I had a website eons ago hosted by AOL, I often visited Emeril's website. At the time, it was a wealth of information, especially about all things NOLA and sometimes he even celebrated national so and so days:) Every Day's a Party is a FUN book! It also has gorgeous photographs and of course Emeril's signature recipes.
From Publishers Weekly @amazon (no affiliate, simply a source cite:)
With restaurants in New Orleans, Orlando, Fla., and Las Vegas, Nev., two shows on the Food Network and five cookbooks, Lagasse is a multimedia phenomenon. This manic, in-your-face cookbook collects Louisiana-style recipes for holidays and events, some familiar (Thanksgiving is to be celebrated with Emeril's Fried Turkey), some local (the New Iberia Gumbo Cook-Off, featuring Gumbo Ya-Ya with sausage) and some purely personal (Lagasse's parents' anniversary with his-and-hers entr?es: Mr. John's Veal Chops with Smoked Gouda Cheese Macaroni and Hilda's Mahi Mahi with Seasonal Vegetables)…
Ina Garten seems to have quite a following. I understand why, I think. Her recipes are down to earth, chatty and most find them to be dependable. Sounds like a recipe for a following to me:) The Barefoot Contessa at Home is another fun book dotted with gorgeous pictures. It was published in 2006. One day I plan on trying the Barefoot Contessa's recipe for Easy Lobster Paella. It sounds dee…li…cious!
From Publishers Weekly
Garten's fifth cookbook (after Barefoot in Paris) follows her surefire formula: uncomplicated but elegant recipes for the home cook whose priority is spending time with friends and family, not in the kitchen. From breakfast to dessert, the Food Network star organizes this volume by meal, with an easy-to-navigate recipe list at the top of each section…
Give-A-Way Winner
I may have put the cart before the horse, lol…I slipped right past last week's Cookbook Give-A-Way Winner! Here's Marion with her trusty hat, lol…(she still looks a bit frail)
And the Winner is…Linda the sweet hostess of There And Back Again Food. Be sure and pop by her blog and congratulate her:)
The Picnic Game
To be perfectly honest, I'm betwixt and between when it comes to whether we should have our virtual picnic this year:( The question is, or should I say the "problem" is, I count 15 possible picnic goers so far. Since the Picnic Game depends on everyone sharing a dish from each letter of the alphabet, what do we do about the remaining 11 letters? We've had this problem in the past. Most times, picnic guests brought more than one dish. In other words, they chose more than one letter. It all came together at the end but, previously, it was only one or two letters, not eleven.
Let's put that aside for a moment while I explain how the Picnic Game works for those who have never "play" before. Basically, the Alphabet Picnic Game is played like a memory game.
The traditional memory game starts when one player recites:
I'm going on a picnic and I'm bringing an ___." (some word(s) that start with an A; for instance Apple Pie)
The second player says, I'm going on a picnic, and I'm bringing... an Apple Pie. (the same "A" word(s) the first player used, in this case an Apple Pie) and ___." they add a "B" word. (for instance, Blueberry Muffins)
Now, if the second player said they were going to bring a Hula Hoop, they wouldn't be able to come:( So the full sentence would be:
I'm going on a picnic and I'm bringing an Apple Pie and Blueberry Muffins.
Let's do one more the traditional way just to make sure I know what I'm doing:)
I'm going on a picnic and I'm bringing an Apple Pie, Blueberry Muffins and Candy. (I added a "C" word; Candy)
Online Picnic Game Rules
I've tried to make the "rules" as easy and fair as possible.
1. Since it will be a virtual picnic day celebration, that means Anyone, Anywhere can play. It doesn't matter if you live in Australia, Brazil, China, Denmark, England, France, Germany, Hungary, India...or the USA. If you have a suitable picnic recipe you're welcome to play.
2. On International Picnic Day, June 18th, the game would begin. You would leave a comment with your letter choice for the dish you would like to bring to the picnic. For instance, if you want to bring a dish to the picnic, that begins with the letter "A," your comment must be left before another person chooses the letter A. We can only have one letter of the alphabet for each dish. Note: If you would like to choose a backup letter just in case your chosen letter is taken, that would be GREAT too!!! If you would rather I suggest a letter from those letters that are left or you just LOVE surprise, let me know and I will "assign" you a letter and you can create the dish.
3. I will let you know if you can bring your dish to the picnic by leaving a You're Invited! comment on your blog. (for those with no blog, please leave an email address) "You're Invited" will be your signal to prepare a post for the Picnic Day Round-Up. Now, here's the confusing part. Your post can be your usual post but at the beginning of the post, you should mention something about the Picnic Game and a link list of the dishes that are being brought before yours. For example:
Let's say my dish begins with the letter "F" and I'm bringing Foolproof Dark Chocolate Fudge. After a short introduction to the game, my post would look something like this:
I'm going on a picnic and I'm bringing…
A-Apple Raspberry Turnovers
C-Cilantro & Lime Chicken Breasts
D-Double Good Macaroni & Cheese
E-Edamame & Violet Risotto
F-Foolproof Dark Chocolate Fudge.
Remember, in all fairness, the choosing of the letters begins June 18, 2016, International Picnic Day. I will posting that day at 12:00 noon EST. As soon as the comments are open, you can leave your letter. Don't worry if you don't make it the first day, the choosing of the letters usually takes a while. Some of you have "chosen" letters either through email or on previous posts. Part of the hoopla of the Alphabet Picnic Game is the choosing of the letters. The comment section seems to work out the best for all to see. So please re-enter your request in the comment section. One of you has requested the letter C due to circumstances at home. The only solution, I'm kinda sorry to say, is to be here first on Saturday, and choose your letter. Perhaps, by me mentioning this conundrum, others will leave it open for you:) If you know of anyone who might be interested in toting a dish to the Picnic Game, by all means invite them! It's a wonderful way to meet new bloggers, visit old friends, and see what others are toting.
I'll fill you in on the rest of how the game works on Saturday. In the meantime, are we betwixt and betweened OR, are we having a picnic???
Hit those shelves you "guys" and share your favorite! Louise:)

Vitamin E, scientifically known as tocopherol, is a type of fat-soluble vitamin that acts as an essential nutrient in the human body. Vitamin E in its role as a potent antioxidant protects fat-soluble parts and cellular membranes from damage.
Deficiency of Vitamin E causes peripheral neuropathy in the body. The condition can be categorized as the degeneration of axons in the sensory neurons. Normally, deficiency of vitamin E occurs due to one or two medical ailments in the body, like genetic defects, fat malaabsorption syndromes, hepatobiliarypancreatic, and intestinal disorders including cystic fibrosis, primary biliary cirrhosis, chronic pancreatitis, short bowel syndromes, Crohn's disease, celiac disease, blind loop syndrome, mesenteric vascular thrombosis, intestinal pseudo-obstruction, intestinal lymphangiectasia, and many more like them.
It is a proven fact that the regular intake of certain amount of vitamin E prevents us from many medical ailments and provides beneficial nutrient to our body. Some of the vitamin E benefits are listed below:
Above all, Vitamin E plays key role in the well functioning of skin's cell and tissues.

Out of the Shadows - White Rhino
Giclee 'OPEN EDITION' Prints
Approx. Size: Not available at present
Original Painting Medium: Pastel Pencils
Scientific Name: Ceratotherium simum
Region: South Africa
I received an email asking if I would portray an African endangered species, for the 'Explorers Against Extinction' auction, to be held at the Royal Geographical Society, in October 2017. All funds raised to help protect rhinos, elephants, lions and combat wildlife crime in Africa.
I've been supporting a number of wildlife groups for 30+ years and one of these groups is Rhinos Without Borders. I knew immediately which species I wanted to portray for the auction.. and couldn't wait to get started on my new artwork.
I am also a Signature Member of Artists for Conservation, and I couldn't believe it when a week later I received another email asking if I would donate an artwork for the 27th Int. Ornithological Congress in Vancouver, Canada. The focus: to highlight all 678 endangered species of birds of the world, in a large mural comprising individually created paintings. I couldn't think of a better way of getting back into my little studio and my world of art and conservation.
So, I have since been beavering away to finish my artwork, 'Out of the Shadows - White Rhino', and she was duly uploaded to the Explorers Against Extinction website.
At the beginning of the 20th century there were estimated to be 500,000 rhinos across Africa and Asia. At the end of 2015, there were around only 29,000 rhinos (all five species) surviving in the wild. In South Africa, every 7 hours a rhino dies. Poachers kill on average 3 rhinos per day – and 1 elephant every 15 minutes, to feed the demand for horn and ivory, on the black market. Our rhinos and ele's need all the help they can get, so hopefully the project will be a huge success.
The grand sum of £250 was raised by my artwork and has been donated to combat wildlife crime in Africa. 'Out of the Shadows' is now on display at Larmer Tree Studio. If you would like to purchase or wish to receive further information please contact me.

The answer to this question may sound simple, but is it really? When you try to think of it logically, it would be easy to assume that bananas have seeds. This follows the logical trail of thought that seeds are necessary in planting and growing bananas. Then how come there are times when you peel and eat a banana, you would not find any seeds? Could it be that the seeds are not within the fruit? Is it in other parts of the banana tree?
Traditionally, the seeds of bananas are found within the fruit. Banana has a light yellow fleshy part. All types of bananas that we have these days descended from two types of wild banana—Musa acuminata and Musa balbisiana. These have large seeds within the flesh of the fruit. Usually, it is round and black in color. Hybrids were eventually grown and the seeds of the bananas became smaller.
Today, with the modern technology we have, there are bananas that do not contain any seeds. When you peel and eat the banana, you would not see any trace of seeds in it, even though in some species of bananas you can find small black seeds in the central part of the yellow flesh.
How can this type of banana be grown if there are no seeds? The process is possible by asexually reproducing the banana tree. The offshoot of the tree is used for continuously growing banana trees. Some farmers utilize the underground stem of an existing banana tree which is called the corm. They carefully remove it along with the roots and use it for growing another tree that also produces seedless banana.

DETROIT — With the plight of the ailing automobile industry at the top of the agenda, the leading Republican presidential candidates set off Monday on a final flurry of campaigning before a Michigan primary that could shake up anew a remarkably fluid field.
Recent polls have indicated that former Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts and Senator John McCain of Arizona are engaged in an extremely close race in Tuesday's primary, with former Gov. Mike Huckabee of Arkansas running third.
Mr. Romney, who has the most riding on Tuesday's result after successive setbacks in Iowa and New Hampshire, delivered a speech Monday at the Detroit Economic Club in which he took Washington lawmakers to task for what he described as excessive regulating of the auto industry and lack of interest in Michigan's economic woes.
Though he left the state decades ago, in the last week Mr. Romney has repeatedly played up his personal ties to it, often sounding more like a candidate for statewide office. His father, George W. Romney, was chairman of American Motors before becoming a three-term governor of Michigan, and the candidate has pledged to make the state a special focus if elected.
On Monday, he vowed that in the first 100 days of a Romney presidency, he would bring together representatives of the auto industry, unions, Congress and the state to come up with a plan to "rebuild America's automotive leadership." He also said he would increase fivefold, to $20 billion, federal support for research and development in energy, materials science, fuel technology and automotive technology.Continue reading the main story
"There are some people who don't think there's a future for the domestic automobile industry," Mr. Romney said. "They think the industry and its jobs are gone forever. They are wrong."
Mr. Romney was alluding, as he has regularly, to Mr. McCain's comment of last week that many of the hundreds of thousands of manufacturing jobs the state has shed will not be coming back. The senator has defended the remark as an honest assessment, and many economic analysts and even industry executives have voiced agreement with it.
Earlier in the day, appearing before more than 1,000 people at Kalamazoo Christian High School, Mr. McCain said he would focus on retraining programs to help the many who have lost their jobs in the state.
"We're not going to leave these people behind," he said, according to The Associated Press.
Mr. McCain's campaign argued Monday that Mr. Romney had taken a very different tone toward the auto industry while campaigning for governor of Massachusetts, proposing a realigning of tax incentives to favor fuel-efficient vehicles, which Mr. McCain and his surrogates asserted would have resulted in a higher tax on the industry's long-popular sport utility vehicles.
Mr. Romney, Mr. McCain and Mr. Huckabee all toured the North American International Auto Show in Detroit on Monday evening. Mr. Romney and Mr. Huckabee were barely 25 yards apart at one point, standing on opposite sides of a hybrid S.U.V., but did not acknowledge each other.
Addressing about 150 workers at a metal fabricating plant in Lansing earlier in the day, Mr. Huckabee emphasized energy independence, revitalization of the nation's manufacturing base and his call to replace the federal income tax with a national sales tax.
Borrowing President Harry S. Truman's calling card, he described his platform as "a new kind of Fair Deal" for Americans.
Political analysts say the Michigan Republican primary will hinge on how many Democrats and independents end up voting in it. The Democratic primary is essentially uncontested because the national party has said it will not count any convention delegates from Michigan, a result of the state's moving the primary up earlier than party rules allow. Michigan permits primary voters to cross party lines, so Republican ballots are expected to be requested by many Democrats and independents, a factor that analysts say should benefit Mr. McCain.Advisers to Mr. Romney, meanwhile, buoyed by some surveys that have shown him in the lead in Michigan, are now cautiously thinking ahead to the South Carolina primary and the Nevada caucuses, both on Saturday.
Mr. Romney pulled his televisions advertisements from South Carolina last week, raising questions about how seriously he would compete there. Evangelicals, many suspicious of his Mormon faith, play a dominant role in the state's Republican primary.
But Mr. Romney's advisers now say he will follow news organizations' attention to South Carolina in hopes of exceeding expectations there.Continue reading the main story

Teeth whitening (or bleaching) is a simple, non-invasive dental treatment used to change the color of natural tooth enamel and is an ideal way to enhance the beauty of your smile.
Because having whiter teeth has now become the number one aesthetic concern of most patients, there are a number of ways to whiten teeth. The most popular method is using a home teeth whitening system that will whiten teeth dramatically. Since teeth whitening only works on natural tooth enamel, it is important to evaluate replacement of any old fillings, crowns, etc. Replacement of any restorations will be done after bleaching so they will match the newly bleached teeth.
Teeth whitening is not permanent. A touch-up may be needed every several years, and more often if you smoke, drink coffee, tea, or wine.
Reasons for teeth whitening:
What does teeth whitening involve?
This type of teeth whitening usually requires two visits. At the first appointment, impressions (molds) will be made of your teeth to fabricate custom, clear, plastic, trays.
At your second appointment, you will try on the trays for proper fit, and adjustments will be made if necessary. The trays are worn with special whitening solution either twice a day for 30 minutes or overnight for a couple of weeks depending on the degree of staining and desired level of whitening. It is normal to experience tooth sensitivity during the time you are whitening your teeth, but it will subside shortly after you have stopped bleaching.
You will receive care instructions for your teeth and trays, and be encouraged to visit your dentist regularly to help maintain a beautiful, healthy, white smile.
"Dr. Cho is the best dentist I have ever had. After years of bad dentists, and even some that I thought were very good, only this man stands above the rest. He holds a unique philosophy of preventative dentistry and wants his clients to understand the full benefits of the methods involved. You will also see proof that he invests in superior technological advancements, such as electronic x-rays. I had never heard of such a thing, but it allows the patient to see high-resolution results of an x-ray in mere seconds on the LCD screen. He may also take pictures of all your teeth using a special oral digital camera. Now I call that attention to detail! He also has an amazingly well-balanced personality with interests in varying fields. You might even learn something new just by chatting with him in between your cleanings."
"I must recommend Dr. Cho to anyone in the Orange County area looking for a great dentist. I hope your visits are as enjoyable as mine. Good luck!"
-- K. Hermans
"I hate going to the dentist… more than anything in the world. I have been needing to go to the dentist for a long time, and finally decided to gather up courage and go. As soon as I called to make an appointment I had a great feeling. The woman on the phone was extremely nice and helpful. I went to my appointment (palms sweating) and was warmly welcomed by that same woman whose voice I remembered from my previous call. I met Dr. Cho and I have never felt so comfortable in a dentist chair. He was very caring and understood my immense fear of the dentist and did a wonderful job of making me feel at home. He definitely knows what he is doing. He explained everything and was very patient with all of my questions. He is personable, smart, and kind, and most of all..GENTLE! I look forward to my future appointments with him! The dental hygienist only works 2 days a week but I had the pleasure of being her patient. The entire staff is amazing!!! There aren't enough nice words for the people at this office! Needless to say..I am no longer scared to go to the dentist! Thank you guys!"

TORRANCE, CA – When major storms and other natural disasters strike, many companies have to spring into action to restore service to their customers. AT&T is no different, and the company told Automotive Fleet about how its fleet was able to overcome a range of obstacles in the wake of super storm Sandy in the northeastern U.S.
AT&T said the key challenges it faced included the loss of commercial power, limited access to retail fueling, and the inability to dispatch service vehicles due to flooding, debris, and road closures in some areas. The company said it was able to deal with these challenges because it had an emergency plan in place.
"AT&T conducts readiness drills and simulations throughout the year to ensure our networks are prepared and our personnel are ready to respond at a moment's notice," said a company spokesperson. "Due to the planning and execution on the front end, we were well prepared to respond to these challenges, including having generators staged for deployment and fuel supplies lined up to keep our fleet rolling. These were all critical factors in our ability to relatively in short order get to a level of having 99 percent of our cell sites up and running across the impacted region."
One method the company used to ensure its vehicles had fuel was to secure and deploy 80 fuel trucks to bring in fuel supplies from outside the storm-hit region. AT&T used the fuel to keep its vehicles and generators going. The company also deployed more than 3,000 generators throughout the northeast to bring power to its cell sites, central offices, and other facilities.
One unique challenge that AT&T said it faced was fueling its compressed natural gas-fueled vehicles. The company operates 244 CNG service vehicles in Connecticut, and the company had to implement its emergency CNG fueling plan to ensure these vehicles could continue to operate.
"This emergency plan included the deployment of two Gas Transport Modules (GTMs), each containing 900 gasoline gallon equivalents (GGEs) of CNG," the spokesperson said. "We quickly had the GTM's in service following the storm making landfall, and kept them up until power was restored at the impacted retail fueling stations."
Beyond ensuring its drivers were able to fuel up company fleet vehicles, AT&T also made fuel available to its employees for purchase in hard-hit areas of New York and New Jersey as many employees crucial to service restoration efforts needed fuel to get to and from work.
"The initiative is designed to help relieve some of the hardships for our employees and is just one of a number of efforts underway to assist those performing jobs ranging from taking service calls or helping customers get their phones charged in our retail stores, to working on restoration of the network," the spokesperson said.
By Nov. 15, the company said its operations were back to normal in the region.
"By executing on our well-rehearsed emergency plans before the storm actually hit, we were as prepared as possible to deal with two of the top issues from a storm for our fleet, which are fuel supply and power supply," the spokesperson said.

Carstairs United Church will strive to make your wedding service a memorable and joyous experience.
As you might expect, we perform religious services here. However, we try to make the service reflect your faith and hopes. You do not have to be a member of this or any church in order to be married here.
The heart of Christian marriage, we believe, lies in the vows. In marriage, we promise to love our spouse in a loving, committed relationship patterned on God's own love for each of us. Through life long marriage, we learn to love each other as God loves us.
Fees and Legal Requirements
OUR WEDDING FEE is $350.00, which includes the minister, accompanist(piano or organ), administration and use of the Sanctuary.
A DEPOSIT of $100.00 is required upon booking the church.
Fees are subject to change
You will need a marriage license that can be obtained through any Alberta Registry Agent. Two adult witnesses are required to be at the wedding ceremony.
The license and remaining balance due MUST be handed into the office at least 2 weeks prior to the wedding.
Marriage Prep
Supporting Your Relationship
When guests are invited to a wedding they are not only there to watch, attending a wedding means that a guest is pledging their support to the couple's relationship. The church is also pledging our support to your relationship and we desire that you will feel free to call upon us for support down the road.
We also want to offer you the best beginning to your marriage that we can. First of all, we invite you to our Sunday morning worship at 10:00 am. This is not a requirement, but a wonderful opportunity to check out our church community, our minister and our Sanctuary. If you would like, we would be pleased to announce your upcoming wedding at the service and include you in our prayers.
Secondly, we highly recommend that you participate in a Marriage Preparation Seminar presented by Pastoral and Spiritual Care, Calgary Presbytery of the United Church of Canada. These seminars are designed for couples whose relationship is lively and healthy.
For further information on Marriage Preparation or to register online please click the following link: http://pastoralcareunited.ca/main/marriage-prep/
Planning the Ceremony
Meeting the Minister. Within a couple of months of your wedding the minister will contact you to schedule two meetings to plan the ceremony. The minister will become acquainted with you personally and go over the service and answer any questions you might have. While we encourage your own creative choices, we ask you to understand that this is a Christian worship service. Our minister officiates at all weddings however, guest clergy may participate or perform the services at the invitation of Carstairs's minister.
Music. You are invited to speak with the minister about music in the service. We do have musicians in our church who are available to play with sufficient notice. You are welcome to arrange guest instrumentalists or vocalists. Your musical choices should be discussed with the minister at the meetings.
Decorating may be done just prior to the wedding, usually at the rehearsal; pew markers, flowers, candles, etc.
Photography. Please, no photos during the ceremony except when the bridal party enters and leaves the church and during the signing of the register. A designated Photographer is asked to consult with the minister concerning picture taking during the wedding. A video camera may be positioned inconspicuously and operated from that position for the duration of the service.
Rehearsals are held just prior to the wedding and run about 30 mins. We suggest the whole wedding party attend. The minister will confirm your date and time.
Same Gender Weddings. Carstairs United Church has an inclusive marriage policy and the minister will perform same-gender weddings.
The United Church Marriage Preparation Seminars for Same-Gender couples are designed to build on the abilities and gifts that couples bring to their decision to make a public commitment to each other, before God and a circle of witnesses.

I recently teamed up with Bertolli to recreate one of the pasta dishes from their website.
There's lots to choose from! But I decided to go with the pasta with broccoli and crispy pancetta from their pasta recipes page.
I was compensated for my time creating this blog post, but all views are my own.
I'm Lisa and this is the Lovely Appetite blog. I'm always experimenting with recipes, hunting through cookbooks for inspiration or trying out new places to eat. Please browse the site and enjoy reading about my findings.

If a Phoenix driver is responsible for causing an accident where no injuries occurred, and it is discovered that the driver was impaired or had a blood alcohol level above .08%, they risk being charged with not only DUI, but with Endangerment as well. Under Arizona law, Endangerment is committed when a person recklessly endangers another by posing a substantial risk of inflicting death or physical injury upon them. If the endangerment charge involves the risk of death, it is considered to be a class 6 felony. All other cases of endangerment are considered to be class 1 misdemeanors.
A felony charge on your record can result in diminished ability to get certain types of employment and housing and can cause many other different hardships in your life. Not only could you spend up to 2 years in jail for a class 6 felony charge, you could also face fines and a civil case against you by the individual who was injured in the accident. With the help of an attorney, you can help mitigate the effects that this type of charge can have on you and your family.
Because cars can be considered dangerous instruments under Phoenix law, and cars are directly involved in DUI cases where Endangerment charges are added, Endangerment could be charged as a dangerous offense and a conviction could mean a mandatory prison term. If a prosecutor can prove that the defendant commited any dangerous offense then a mandatory prison term will result. As a seasoned Phoenix defense attorney, Joshua S. Davidson knows how to defend those accused of Endangerment as a result of a DUI accident and puts his experienced to work for each of his clients.
As an experienced Phoenix DUI Defense Attorney, Joshua S. Davidson has seen firsthand how complex an endangerment charge can be. Endangerment is a vague and confusing charge and can be left open to interpretation, usually to the disadvantage of the defendant. As a former Phoenix prosecutor, he understands how endangerment charges can be used against the defendant, and now that he is a defense lawyer he knows how to effectively counteract those charges. It is extremely important that your case be properly evaluated when DUI and Endangerment charges are posed and as your Phoenix defense attorney he will make sure that happens.
Contact Phoenix DUI Defense Attorney Joshua S. Davidson today regarding your DUI and Endangerment charges In Phoenix, Scottsdale, Glendale, Mesa & Tempe.

Limerick Reviews and Summaries
The Lost Art of Keeping Secrets by Eva Rice
Nick Raynsford's missing bio
If you see a slightly confused man who doesn't seem to know where he's going bumbling about on the streets of Greenwich, it's probably Nick Raynsford. Nick has been MP for Greenwich and Woolwich for some time now, but his most recent term has been marked by its combination of disinterest in local issues and blatant lobbying on behalf of the construction industry.
His website has a potted bio, but it omits some facts which need to be included for completeness's sake. Thanks to Wikipedia which isn't so selective.
How could they not include the fact that Nick Raynsford was in fact born with a silver spoon in his mouth as Wyvill Richard Nicolls Raynsford? Why fail to mention that he grew up in Milton Manor? And that he was educated at the uber-posh private Repton School?
I'm sure the Labour Party will wish to correct these blaring omissions at the earliest opportunity. I mean, I'd hate for Raynsford to attempt to campaign on the basis of Labour's working class roots without making his own background totally transparent.

It is not surprising that Nova Rae Interiors has been sought out time and again by out of Province or Country clients for Project Management services for their home renovations projects. Alberta clients make up a large percent of Nova Rae's clientele with clients trusting in their Project Management services in their absence. Our team liaises with The City of Kelowna, West Kelowna and the District of Lake Country to adhere to building bylaws, arranging required building permits and inspections.
Their very hands on approach to Project Management contributes to their long list of satisfied clients who's renovation project came in on budget (or under), on time and do not hesitate to refer them on to friends and family.
As Project Managers, our team will work with you creating a timeline, breaking down a detailed budget, sourcing and pricing materials and hiring and scheduling trades.
