Poorly Made Meatball Sub Prompts Man To Slash And Bite Fiancee
Meet Lyndel Toppin.
Lyndel likes his meatball subs his way. When they're not his way, Lyndel tends to express his displeasure in odd ways. Just ask his fiancee.
Lyndel's fiancee prepared Mr. Finicky a meatball sub last week and apparently her cheese placement skills were lacking. When presented with his sub, Mr. Toppin became enraged, grabbed a kitchen knife and slashed his bride to be. The gash required 23 stitches, and she may need surgery for ligament damage.
Was that enough to teach her a lesson? Not yet.
Lyndel then grabbed her wrist and chomped down on it with his teeth. And refused to let go.
Mr. Toppin is currently in jail and charged with aggravated and simple assault, reckless endangerment, possessing an instrument of crime and harassment.
A quip by the Superintendent of the facility housing Mr. Toppin gets the last laugh in this story...
"Wait until he gets a load of the prison food".

I Had a Dream!
Have you ever dreamed of an opportunity that you longed to become a reality only to have it fall by the wayside? If not, stick around, because you will. Dreams have a way of fighting against you. Sometimes dreams are not to be because God, in His infinite wisdom, forges a path far better than we could ever conceive or dream of. For years, I have had a dream of starting my own podcast dealing with the issues of the gospel and the transferring of it to the next generation. Somehow time, finances, or other pressing matters took precedent. Even this year found a way to provide many set backs in our attempts to release this new resource. However, through much planning and preparation, the Lord has seen fit, in His wisdom, to allow the release of CrossTalk: 'The Gospel for Today and Beyond'.
I can hardly believe it's happening! The Lord has seen fit to allow us – whether big or small – to influence and join the discussion of the centrality of the Gospel and the urgency of the hour to transfer it to the next generation.
You may be wondering: "how will your podcast be any different than the thousands which already do a similar thing?" That's a good question. Glad you asked. There are two ways that it will be different:
1. The Message
Honestly, I see CrossTalk hitting a niche that has not been served. Don't get me wrong; there are many quality podcast that serve the purpose of discussing the issue of the gospel. However, our heart is to take it a step further. We want to discuss the implications that it has for our daily lives, challenge everyone to transfer it, and give the call for the next generation to carry the mantle. We want to layout biblically the essential elements of the faith that are important to live out and carry on – not man's ideas or conjuring, but God's grace filled truth. We want to bring it back to the centrality of Christ and His work in us – "the hope of glory".
2. The Platform
Secondly, CrossTalk will provide a unique platform. The show will feature a father and son team as your hosts: Charles Cavanaugh and myself. Dad brings to the table 17 years of pastoral ministry and study. God's has blessed him with 33 years of marriage to his wonderful wife, Pam. He has also father two sons who – now in their adulthood – are engaging the culture with the gospel. I am equally excited to join my dad on the airwaves. My desire is to pull from what God is teaching me as I study His word on a daily basis. God has given me the joy to journey 12 years in family/church ministry. I am also currently under the mentorship of my pastor. These are not credentials that give us right of passage to speak, but rather experiences that God has used through failure and trials to forge and cultivate a message of the amazing grace of our God.
CrossTalk will release it first episode September 4. You can follow each episode by subscribing to our feed on iTunes or follow our blog at vision4living.org. We look forward to having you join us each week as we seek to grow together in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

What's Down in the Well…
When I was boy, I remember the topics of conversation in our home covering many topics. School, work, and chores all took their place around the table, in the car, and in the living room.
But very often, spiritual and biblical matters made their way into our conversations: sermons, theological issues, and witnessing opportunities. We heard my Father speak of witnessing on the job, share thoughts on sermons, and articulate concerns about biblical orthodoxy. It was always clear what his concerns were and where he stood.
Lest you think my Father was a pastor or theologian, I will tell you that he was not. He was a trucker. But his love for God's Word and interest in spiritual things was genuine and evident. Christ and His Word and the need of others for God's truth were never very far from his conversation. My Dad was a very ordinary man who possessed a hunger for the things of God. And God used that to instill in me a hunger for the Word and a passion for pastoral and preaching ministry. What these things illustrate to us is that spiritual leadership and vision are a matter of the heart. We cannot communicate what is not in our hearts; at least not effectively and passionately. To have a passion for Christ and His Gospel, we must treasure these things above all else, for "where your treasure is there your heart will be also" (Matthew 6:21). Jeremiah the Old Testament Prophet tried to restrain himself from saying anymore about the truth of God: "But His Word was in my heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with holding it in, and I could not" (Jeremiah 20:9).
You do not have to be a Prophet, preacher, or professor to possess a burning passion for Christ, but you do have to know the reality of Christ and His Gospel in your own life. I am not much on clichés, except as a joke, but it is true that what's down in the well comes up in the bucket. If you are going to pass on a vision for Christ and His Gospel to the next generation, you must possess it in the depths of you soul, "…for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks" (Proverbs 23:7).
Ask God for such a passion and vision. If there is any hint of such in your heart, cultivate it. Practice heart maintenance, and "keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life" (Proverbs 4:23). In the words of the Apostle Paul, "Meditate upon these things; give yourself completely to them; that your profiting may appear unto all. Take heed to the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this you will save yourself and those who hear you" (I Timothy 4:15 &16). Challenge others with these things and pray that God will work in you and them to touch and change the next generation for Christ, "that the generation to come might know [Him]" and "set their hope in God" (Psalm 78:6 & 7).
For the glory of Christ,
Charles Cavanaugh
College Students Taught Me How to Present the Gospel
This past Monday, I experienced a first in my life. Along with some local college students and members from my local church, we gathered on a beautiful sun-lit Monday evening on the campus of USI [University of Southern Indiana] to participate in a prayer walk. Our purpose was to pray over the campus and its various aspects of education before the students arrived this week to begin their fall semester. I cannot tell you what a joy it is to be a part of a local church [Westwood] that is intentionally engaging the University that is at its back door with the gospel of Christ. Not only does it have local implications, but it has national implications as well since we have students come from all over the world. As I walked across the campus with one of my elders and a student who goes to our church [he was saved his freshman year – just two years ago] praying over the freshman dorms, I was struck heavily with the incredible opportunity that we have to affect the next generation with the gospel.
But, it did not stop there.
As I prayed with these men, the college student who was with our little band of prayer warriors shared with us his testimony of how he came to Christ. He told of how two young guys [USI students at the time and members of our church] came knocking at his door in the freshman dorm just two years ago. They had come to invite him to a Campus Outreach event. From there, these guys engaged him with the gospel and in the subsequent days and months he confessed Christ as his savior. Honestly, I could go on about other current and former students who have come to know Christ in similar ways. These stories have been building in my heart and mind over the last several months to a point of conviction for me as I hear the stories of these students.
I am convicted by their willingness and their completely unashamed intentional steps to share their faith with those God has placed in their sphere of influence. I have had to ask myself: what am I doing to share my faith with those around me? And the answer has been a negative.
Oh, I proclaim the joys of the gospel and the need to understand it from a biblical perspective. But am I really engaging others to share the gospel? Not really. Not consistently. Furthermore, if I am desirous to challenge and affect the next generation of gospel believers, then I must realize a key element is sharing it with a generation who does not even know Christ. There must be an attitude from me that does not underestimate and is unashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
It is commonly known that my passion is to see the next generation grab ahold of the gospel; however, it was the next generation [college students] that showed me my urgent need to share the gospel with the lost around me. Life lessons can come from the most unexpected places and that has happened to me this past week.

Is Church Important? – An Interview with Hilary Scheller
We are excited to introduce to you the next episode in the series 'Is Church Important?' Building up to P4C13, we are working to develop the concept of the importance of the local church from a personal level – interviews with real people from a real local church. Why? Because this year's theme is 'The Body: God's Plan for the Local Church'.
This episode is an interview with Hilary Scheller, a recent college graduate, librarian, and active church member at Westwood Church, home church of the Cavanaugh family. Hilary explores the question, 'Why Church is Important?'

What Ecuador taught me about the Sovereignty of God…
I have been traveling on short-term mission trips to multiple countries for almost 10 years now. Each trip has been an adventure and each one has taught me something about the character of God. In fact, there is not a trip where I have not come away a changed person. However, I never really gave much consideration to the sovereignty of God and short-term missions. Oh, I assumed that God was sovereign and believed it to be so but never took the time to view every detail of what was going on around me as God ordained. I guess there is a first time for everything. We can leave the discussion of what makes short-terms missions trip affective for another day, but today I want to share with you something God did in my life this past trip to Ecuador.
I have been traveling to Ecuador for the last four years every summer. I have had the incredible opportunity to serve and work with a group of faithful pastors in that country, which I would not trade for anything. We have labored together in the gospel in both equipping and discipling the churches of this beautiful country. Many children have heard the gospel proclaimed to them and some have come to know Christ through faith. Sunday school teachers have been trained. Laymen have been built up in the faith. Christ's kingdom has been furthered by gracious blessings upon our efforts.
Each trip has been different and incredible in its own right. God has put together teams who have served tirelessly with faithfulness to the work that has been set before them. I have had the privilege of leading them along the way as we saw God glorify Himself in numerous ways.
My desire in every trip has been to point the team and those in the country to the matchless person of Jesus Christ. But this time, something else happened. Upon looking back on my recent trip, I am realizing that God was magnifying and exalting Christ in my own heart and mind. Yes, things were very different than in previous years. There were significantly less kids at this year's camps then in any previous years. The children seemed more rowdy than usual. Multiple circumstances took place that I could do nothing about. I encountered counseling opportunities that I never dreamed would cross my path. The trip was different. The people seemed different. Nothing seemed as it had been in previous years. And why was this so? I could not seem to put my finger on it. And then I realized. I am not in control. God was orchestrating the events and circumstances on this trip – as he has and always will. But this time, I saw it in a fresh light. I realized in a magnificent way that it was not about my expectations or me, but it was about what God was sovereignly working to accomplish for the sake of the gospel. And I was there to be a part of it – to make decisions and plans only as the Lord directed my steps.
I was meant to be in Ecuador which means everything that happened was meant for me to experience and that is an encouraging thought. I leave you with one last thing: if God is not completely sovereign then life is completely hopeless. This is what Ecuador taught me about the sovereignty of God.

The Desperation of Impossibility
Though I could not swim, I stepped into the gradually deepening water of the lake. I slowly walked away from the shore. What would it be like to wade up to my chest? Not bad. Maybe just a little farther; up to my shoulders. I was facing the shore but gradually moving backwards. Now I was to my chin, and the water was near my mouth. Something strange began to happen. It felt like a current was pulling me away from shore. I was on my tiptoes, and I could not seem to control where I was going. I was frightened beyond words; words which could not come out. I was desperate and helpless. I thought I was a goner.
Of course, I did not drown, but it was a close call. Standing as high on my toes as I could, I pulled my arms through the water, pushing myself forward until I could stand on firm ground. Then, shaking with fear and relief, I walked to the shore. While that sense of desperation did not leave immediately, I was grateful to be alive.
Perhaps you have had such an experience, a time when the impossibility of the situation left you desperate. It can be frightening, or worse. How vulnerable we are, and how dangerous life can sometimes be.
And so it can be with parenting. At first, the initial thrill and excitement outweigh any foreboding. There is nothing quite like this. "I have begotten a child." But it is not long until your thought becomes,"What have I gotten myself into?" Conscientious Christian parenting is a daunting task. Being the spiritual leader of a Christian home is daunting, even impossible.
How do we build a Christ-centered home? We must define our target and aim for the bull's eye. We must press toward the mark and put ourselves completely into the work of building a Christ-centered home. But we must quickly and consistently embrace the desperation of impossibility. As Christians, as parents, and as pastors and church leaders we are always cast upon the God we seek to please. And we come to know and are continually reminded that, "Unless the LORD builds the house, we labor in vain who build it" (Ps. 127:1). At the risk of sounding absurd, desperation is only bad if it leads us to despair, but it is profitable when it drives us to our Lord.
I have been reminded recently that this process never ends. Even as the Father of adult sons, I am still building(though in a different way) and still cast upon The Lord to build. I am in a spiritual venture with my Lord, and I am very much the "junior partner". I am often left helpless, with nothing to do but cast myself upon Christ my Rock.
Do you need a list of saints to assure you that you are not the only one? There is Noah, Abraham, Jacob, Moses, Joseph, Nehemiah, David, Jeremiah, Peter, and Paul. Even Christ was finally and ultimately cast upon the Father.
A list of how to's is not your answer. A loving dependence on Christ and His grace is both the beginning and the path to a Christ-centered life and home. May our Lord lead us there and keep us there through the desperation of the impossible.
Looking to Christ,
Charles Cavanaugh
Faithful Friends and Pumpkin Doughnuts
What a wonderful weekend the Lord gave me! I am reminded of the verse: "…there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother" (Proverbs 18:24). I had the privilege of spending quality time with two of my favorite people this weekend – Dave and Becky Cavanaugh. Not only are they family, but we also have been very close friends for years, even before I entered the Cavanaugh clan.
I am writing on the tablet of my heart of the gratefulness I have for these two folks. They have invested in my life and they have stuck closer to me than "a brother."
They came to visit Charles and me while coming to our family reunion. These are the kind of friends that, even though I do not see them all the time, we can pick back up right where we left off – a friendship that fits like a glove; like a cool drink of water that satisfies my thirst.
What a blessing I have been given by having Dave and Becky in my life. We have laughed, cried, and shared so much together. This friendship is true richness in a society that is so greedy and focused on material gain. Do you invest in people when your lives come together from time to time so that you can say with the Scripture in Proverbs 27:17, "As iron sharpens iron, so a man sharpens the countenance of his friend"? I am so grateful for this weekend of iron sharpening my countenance.
Purposeful friends remember all about you and are a blessing in small ways. My dear friends brought me pumpkin doughnuts all the way from Circleville, OH – the best doughnut and my all-time favorite. "Just a little thing," you say. But I think of how Christ loves me and is always doing even little things in my life.
So… as the weekend draws to a close, I say goodbye to the precious times I have had to laugh, care, and share together. I put the extra doughnut in a zip lock bag and place it in the freezer. I want to be able to savor the treasure and it will remind me of how much I treasure the time spent with my dear friends Dave and Becky. I savor their friendship and anticipate spending eternity together sharing, caring, and praising the Lord.
And I am convinced there will be pumpkin doughnuts in heaven… Just sayin'. I savor the thought! :-).

Final Ecuador Update
The team is just a few days away from returning home after a full trip.
They kicked off their last week with a bonfire on the beach Saturday evening with the youth from the local church in Esmeraldas. The kids loved Micah!
Before the team took off for kid's camp, Daniel had the opportunity to speak at the Sunday morning church service on the topic of discipleship.
Camp week was fun, full, and exciting. One of the older boys trusted Christ for salvation. Praise the Lord! Please pray that the other children continue to think on the truths that they heard and that their hearts will be turned to Christ.
Please also pray for strength for the team to finish the trip strong and for safe travels for everyone as they return home.

Hello Devin, thank you for replying to my post and for the advice.
Unfortunately, I haven't spoken to my friend since the last time I saw her when she told me things were better (which was before I shared the story here). She hasn't called me or texted me so I am not sure if I should try to contact her soon. I would love to share information about DV with her but to do this I need to have contact with her. The thing is that she still loves and cares for this woman and since the things got better between them I suppose she wouldn't consider leaving. Also, the abuser is her boss and if she reports her, maybe my friend would lose her job. That is part of the reason why no one knows about them.
She is completely open gay for a long time, so that is not an issue. I know that in our community it is more complicated to seek help because of homophobia or just because people might not believe that DV is possible in a same-sex relationships. Especially, my friend used to be a rugby player, also a boxer, so no one would expect that to happen to her.
I know it is her decision what to do, just hope I will get to speak to her soon and will be able to give her some information and support.
Thanks again!

KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken) gives the biggest MSG reactions, even to people that are not sensitive to MSG.
I think MSG is their so secret ingredient

You bet it is! My daughter's friend worked there and she said it was added to the biscuits and everything else. KFC was asked to leave India because the people were getting sick who ate there. That was a couple years ago.

Krispy Kreme Donuts.....sound good, don't they? And boy are they a home run on Wall Street. But guess what? I ate one yesterday and within 2 hours had my usual MSG reaction of red, swollen, itchy and oozing blisters.
Avoid those tasty donuts as they obviously contain MSG.

You know Roy, you are right. I too have eaten at many Indian restaurants without any reaction. Nice to know we have somewhere to go.
I also have had luck with some good Italian restaurants. But I always ask anyway because I hate to suffer.

Ditto to the Indian restaurants. But I learned the hard way that "medium" heat for the spice
when given a choice is sometimes "extremely" hot! Mild at the place we go to is like the "hot" in pretty hot salsa.

Im lucky that the people at a local Chinese restaurant know us by now, and they know our problem with MSG. They will stir fry fresh vegetables with beef strips (or without) in oil and only salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and fresh garlic and ginger. I eat it with panfried noodles or plain rice and may add a little sugar and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice at the table. I have found that many restaurants can be accomodating if you are pleasant and tell them you can end up in the hospital if you get MSG by mistake. Showing the MSG aliases card helps, too.

Posted on Thursday, October 26, 2000 - 4:20 pm:
I have found Chinese restaurants are actually much more sympathetic to MSG sufferers. Many places by me do not add MSG at all, and even steer you clear of the soy sauce too, if you are sensitive. They are quite respectful.

In the past, I would depend on waiters to know the answers to my questions about MSG. Now I ask to see actual bottle or can labels, even when they assure me they don't add MSG. Most times I am able to point out autolyzed yeast, hydrolyzed protein or something else to them. Most are very surprised and made newly aware of hidden forms of MSG. When I tell them I am "deadly allergic" to MSG, it works...they don't understand the words "sensitive" to MSG. Often my inquiry will start a good conversation about MSG with someone, even the waiter, who will say, "gee, my sister gets that symptom all the time....",etc. Learn the hidden sources of MSG and make sure you value your health enough to ask the questions, even though it may feel uncomfortable at first. It WILL get easier, and you will learn what to avoid.

I am so happy to see some of the same people from our nomsg.com website. What happened to it?
2 nights ago, grilled tuna and salad with no dressing at Roadhouse Grill--still trying to shake the migraine. Who knows, maybe the marinade on the tuna. Sure did taste good, but...
I live in Miami and have found all Cuban restaurants to be safe. Ditto for the rest of the South American restaurants: Argentinean, Chilean, Brazilian, except for the sausages and Mexican if I don't touch the soup. I don't touch soup anywhere because I fear the stock.
Forget Chinese food. I always get lulled into thinking if they say nomsg, I will be OK.
Thai food has been ok for me, as well as Greek food.
Korean food was a problem, but maybe because I ate the soup pots. Will try again.
No barbecue sauce or salad dressing anywhere.
Nathan's French fries are safe for me, but nothing else. I do ok with all French fries, except the ones with the mixed seasoning.
Believe it or not, I do fine with the soft serve frozen yogurt from McDonalds. I have been eating the sundaes & McFlurrys with no problem.
No Cracker Barrel. The problem might have been the little packet of sour cream.
Best to all.

Posted on Friday, November 03, 2000 - 4:47 pm:
Thai peanut sauce gave me no trouble, but the curry was a killer (unlike Indian curry). Never risked Thai food again.
Greek food has never been a problem, but once a friend's order came topped with a thick brown sauce - they're usually loaded with MSG.
Visited Miami last winter and frequented the Las Vegas Cuban food restaurant chain - delicious, no reactions, and cheap besides.
Chinese food - always a risk, no matter what I ate, until I began ordering everything steamed, with no sauce, accompanied by white rice (no soup or egg roll). A bit bland, but I add pepper and a little sugar, and stick with a dish that has a little more fat for flavor to make up for the lack of oil (Ex: shrimp or dark meat chicken with cashew nuts).
Salad dressings? I always ask for oil & vinegar & put them on myself.

Posted on Saturday, November 04, 2000 - 6:02 am:
If you do find yourself in a Chinese restaurant, Chinese food always must be ordered with care, but it can be done. Ask for stir fried snow peas, waterchestnuts, ginger, and chicken (no marinade) cooked in only peanut oil, with sesame oil added for flavor, and plain white rice. Always tell them you are allergic to soy so they skip any soy sauce or tofu, and that you can't have MSG. It's simple for them to make, and they usually have those ingredients there, especially the fresh veggies. And with some salt, you'd be amazed how good this tastes.
At any American restaurant remember lemons. Restaurants always have lemons- they use them in drinks, and every seafood entree comes with them. No self-respecting restaurant is without lemons. I use them on everything.
In my water or plain seltzer -so I avoid soft drinks
On my salad instead of vinegar
On my french fries with salt instead of ketchup
On my seafood.
If you do use lemons, be sure to rinse your mouth well with a good swallow of water since the acidity can affect tooth enamel.
And, because they already are acidic, they do not brown easily when cut, so you avoid that fruit fresh problem Deb A brought up earlier. Restaurants don't need to treat lemons to keep them looking fresh. Lemon juice is what Grandma used to keep other fruit from turning brown once cut.
Olive oil is a safe bet, and restaurants usually always have it. I dip my bread in it instead of using butter. It doesn't take that much to get used to it. I pour it on my baked potatoes too, instead of butter.
Many chefs don't mind making something simpler for you. You may think you are being a pain by asking, but really, it is easier for them to make a simpler dish, and it costs them less too.
My friends love to go out to eat, and I'd rather go along than stay home by myself. Socially,it definitely helps to develop strategies for dealing with restaurants. To tell you the truth, I am much more afraid of family events and parties where "Aunt Jane" just won't reveal her secret recipe.

Posted on Saturday, November 04, 2000 - 9:46 am:
Well said, Carol, and I certainly couldn't agree with you more about family affairs! Last year my husband ended up in emergency after eating some things I told him I was suspicious of. He was just too tempted and tried them anyway, and paid a high price. The pain in his upper abdomen, and violent vomiting for 6 hours were terrible to witness. (His own father's throat closes off when he gets too much MSG so he has to induce vomiting) At the hospital, where they ruled out everything else, I asked the doctor if he saw much of this during the holidays. He laughed and in this small town we were visiting, told us that he had seen 20 just like Mike in the last little while after Thanksgiving. He said it was probably too much turkey, and I told him how turkey was injected with MSG. He was shocked, and said he didn't realize that. You cannot begin to imagine the increase in e mail I receive during the holidays when people eat so much more excitotoxin-laden "party" dishes and snacks. Check my KOMO radio interview where this is discussed (on this site). So please, anyone who is visiting here and is suspicious of an MSG sensitivity, learn what to avoid during this time of the year so that you can actually enjoy the holidays.

Posted on Saturday, November 04, 2000 - 12:13 pm:
Deb is right. If you can, invite friends and family to your house. They will appreciate safe foods that are made from scratch. If you go somewhere else, bring a dish with you that you know you can eat. Who knows? It may be a hit and people will be asking for your safe recipes.

P.S. About Thai food. A friend of mine who is Thai used to cook for us often before I discovered the problems with MSG. A staple in the kitchen of a Thai cook is something called fish sauce. It is probably NOT a safe ingredient for the folks visiting this site. Also, I remember cabbage was often used for scooping up dips and meats. Cabbage contains goitrogens which affect the thyroid and are not something you want to eat a lot of if you have a sluggish thyroid, which many MSG sensitive people do. I'd go easy on the cabbage, and avoid fish sauce in Thai food. Many of the meats on skewers are marinaded, so be aware of what is in the marinade of grilled items too.

Can anyone tell me of a safe Turkey brand, for this Thanksgiving? I am already dreading Thanksgiving dinner, if I could find a safe brand, then I could let my mother-in-law know. She is not big on changes, but at least I would be able to eat the turkey.
Deb A.
Posted on Wednesday, November 08, 2000 - 9:14 am:
Vicki, look for one that says "No Additives". Sometimes the words, "minimally processed" can mean it contains additives or not, so the best thing to do it to visit the grocery store and write down the name of the turkeys you are wondering about, the name of the company and any pertinent information that will lead to a phone number or e mail address. Then contact the plant manager and ask. The butcher can help you, also. Sometimes a safe turkey can be found in health food supermarkets. Look in the papers for farmers who raise turkeys. I have a friend who raises them and plans to have one for me next year. If all else fails, find a chicken that does not bother you, and roast and stuff a couple. One year I made my own dressing and put half in a buttered casserole dish, and then added boneless chicken breasts that I knew were safe for me, and another layer of dressing. I covered it with foil to roast, and everyone loved it. I ALWAYS make our favorite fresh cranberry dressing by processing together one bag of cranberries, one apple, one orange (I include the zest, but remove most of the white pith), and one cup of sugar, which you can reduce. The emphasis is FRESH vegetables and fruits, and gravy made without bouillion cubes or dry soup mix, like my mother did one year. I was sick for 3 days! Beware of the tempting desserts during the holidays by making your own and bringing them along to parties if you have to. I found an Acme Turkey to be fine, but it's produced in our state. Look for more local turkeys as they may not be injected with as many preservatives and additives like the huge companies that process and ship, like
Butterball Turkeys, etc.

A Thai restaurant in Chicago name Arun's. We went there last night with some apprehensions since we had never had Thai food before, but since some here had stated they found Thai food safe, I thought I would brave it. The headwaiter made sure that everyone in our party was aware of the types of food that would be served putting special emphasis on finding out if anyone had allergies to shellfish. I stated that I was severely sensitive to MSG and was assured that they did not allow any MSG in their food preparation and that all food to be presented was made by their chefs from scratch - including sauces.
It was a 7-course meal with each entrée, although small, presented marvelously. The entrees were spaced with sufficient time to clear one's palate for the next. It seemed as though the entrees became progressively spicier, but each had uniquely interesting flavors. One of the dinner attendees was a wine expert and ordered the appropriate wines to complement each entrée. They were all foreign wines so I felt safer than if they had been the California wines with "natural flavors."
Amazingly I remained reaction free and sufficiently satiated after 3 1/2 hours of dining. But be prepared for the bill when it comes. The dinners are a set price of $75 per person and the wine bill added up to almost the same price. Our bill with tip was $275 per couple. Not something I would do very often, but considering I did not have any reactions, it was worth the one time shot and the company was pleasurable.

I've only figured out the MSG thing this year after hearing about my friend's sensitivity. She gets terrible headaches, suffers short term memory problems, and can't function mentally. I'm not so bad, but I do get "space head," difficulty concentrating, and occasionally, tightness in my chest and mild headaches. The worst reaction I've had was from Boston Market. It's in the marinade and bread, so just about everything they serve, except the ham and mac & cheese. The soup from Finagle a Bagel made me a bit loopy to.

Carl's Jr. posts "nutritional info" on their website, but not ingredients.
They sent me a booklet listing all the ingredients of their menu items (and for Green Burrito). They're just as bad, if not worse, than McDonalds, Burger King, Jack in the Box, et al. Interestingly, they indicate some of the items as *(contains glutamate) [that notation and "monosodium glutamate" are in bold type]; but of course they do not do that for all of the glutamate sources, mainly some hydrolyzed proteins.
My mom had a bad reaction to a Carl's Jr. burger w/BBQ sauce on it (hours in the bathroom), and she doesn't consider herself sensitive to MSG. Here is a sampling:
*Beef Sirloin Flap Steak
Tenderized with a solution of Ficin and/or Bromelin. Marinated with up to 7% of a solution of water, salt, natural beef flavor (hydrolyzed corn, wheat, soy protein (contains glutamate), autolyzed yeast (contains glutamate), maltodextrin, and beef broth), garlic powder, sodium tripolyphosphate, dextrose, hydrolyzed corn gluten, hydrolyzed wheat gluten, sugar, spice extractives.
*Chicken Stars
Chicken, water, seasoning [modified food starch, salt, sodium phosphate, hydrolyzed milk protein, sugar, hydrolyzed soy protein (contains glutamate)], food starch modified.
BREADED WITH: enriched wheat flour (niacin, reduced iron, thiamine mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), yeast, dextrose, and iodized salt.
BATTERED WITH: water, bleached wheat flour, food starch modified, sugar, leavening (sodium acid pyrophosphate, sodium bicarbonate, monocalcium phosphate), salt, spices, buttermilk solids, dried whole eggs, soy flour, dextrose, and garlic powder.
PREDUSTED WITH: bleached wheat flour, durum flour, salt, vital wheat gluten, spices, garlic powder, soybean oil, and natural flavor. Breading set in hot soybean oil.
Beef, water, tomato paste, seasoning (spices, yellow corn flour, dehydrated onion, salt, soy protein isolate, garlic powder), chili powder (chili pepper, cumin, salt, garlic and oregano), masa flour (corn treated with lime water and specially ground, niacin, reduced iron, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin), salt, autolyzed yeast extract (contains glutamate), paprika, spices.
Sauce, BBQ
1/2 Gallon
Corn sweeteners, water, tomato paste, prepared mustard, natural flavor, salt, vinegar, onions, garlic, spices, hydrolyzed vegetable protein, xanthan gum, sodium benzoate (preservative), propylene glycol, alginate, lemon juice, potassium sorbate (preservative), thiamine hydrochloride, disodium inosinate, disodium guanylate, dextrose.
*1 oz Cup
Corn syrup, water, tomato paste, prepared mustard (distilled vinegar, mustard seed, salt, tumeric, spices), high fructose corn syrup, natural flavor, vinegar, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, spices, hydrolyzed corn gluten and soy proteins (contains glutamate), xanthan gum, sodium benzoate (preservate), propylene glycol alginate, potassium sorbate (preservative), autolyzed yeast (contains glutamate).
Note that the BBQ sauce in gallons does not indicate (contains glutamate), yet it has two MSG potentiators (disodium inosinate, disodium guanylate) in the ingredients, in addition to natural flavor and hydrolyzed vegetable protein.

Just saw this on the web:
"Monosodium Glutamate -
a white crystalline organic compound having the formula COOH-(CH2)2CH(NH2)COONa. Monosodium glutamate is normally called "MSG". It imparts a meaty flavour to the foods it is added to. Most vegetarians, whether they admit it or not, have metabolisms that desperately crave meat. Thus they find themselves addicted to and continually craving MSG. There may be other, more biochemical, reasons for MSG's addictiveness. Fast food franchises are wise to this characteristic of MSG and each appears to be contributing to an MSG-race in a competitive effort to make its food the most addictive and thus maximize its core customer base. It would be difficult to add much MSG to a cheeseburger without making it taste funny, but the taste of Chinese food is the taste of MSG. That probably accounts for its enormous popularity."

WOW I just had a baked potato w/butter & sour cream at Arby's--thought that would be pretty safe--when I got back to the office I checked the nutritional guide I had there because I was having some abdominal pain--in the margarine/butter blend there is whey and artificial flavor. In the "sour cream," (I don't know how they can call it that) there is modified food starch, gelatin, citric acid, sodium caseinate, guar gum, artificial flavor, and carageenan!! Hard to say WHAT didn't agree with me.

Posted on Tuesday, May 01, 2001 - 4:49 pm:
As a food process engineer I am always amazed to see just how many unecessary thickeners they throw into something so simple as sour cream. It's like they were afraid the food starch, gelatin, and guar gum wouldn't work so they had to use carageenan too. As if they would offend the carageenan salesman or something. Jeesh! Talk about overkill.

I ate some Planter's dry roasted unsalted peanuts for a couple days in a row. It probably totalled a cup. Last night I had a slight headache and I had to run to the bathroom several times.(bright yellow burny stool) Now I just belch and have gas and a very bloated and uncomfortable stomach. I know I react to MSG with a massive headache and depression , but this was a little different. What could they be adding to unsalted peanuts? MSG is salty, and these weren't.
Posted on Friday, May 04, 2001 - 9:35 pm:
AuxiGro could be sprayed on the peanuts while they are growing. Auxigro is 29% MSG. Or maybe it was 39%. Anyway, it's probably in the peanuts themselves.
Deb S
Posted on Friday, May 04, 2001 - 11:16 pm:
There are plenty of MSG substitutes that don't contain sodium. See
hidden names for MSG
for a list of ingredients that always or often contain glutamate. Anything you see on the label besides peanuts is suspect. Plus I understand that a lot of products have some amount of sulfites in them, which isn't listed on the label.
Carol H
Posted on Saturday, May 05, 2001 - 11:04 am:
Anonymous, MSG barely has a taste of it's own, although it is added mainly to salty processed foods. It has a slightly metallic taste. Companies that make MSG try to push the fact that MSG contains less sodium per teaspoon than regular salt. That would be fine, if the glutamate portion wasn't the real business end of the MSG molecule that causes all of the trouble with blood pressure. Don't go by the salty taste. Also, go by how many products a company makes that contain MSG. Most of the Planters products contain MSG. Avoid products from companies like Planters that overuse MSG.
Posted on Saturday, May 05, 2001 - 11:34 am:
I can't believe how much the public doesn't know about this garbage in our food. Thanks, all, for the tips. I will never touch Planter's peanuts again. Are there any safe peanuts at all? What about organic peanuts? I like to snack on protein foods, but it is getting more difficult for me to do that. I will get Deb A.'s book. I have heard good things about it. Maybe there are ideas for snack foods. I'm real sick of getting poisoned! I notice that some cheeses don't bother me and many do. Is there a rule of thumb about cheese? Thnaks for any advice in advance.

Does anyone know anything about BHT & BHA, it just doesn't sound very healthy
Roy Piwovar
Posted on Tuesday, July 17, 2001 - 7:27 pm:
Per the article linked below, "Well respected researcher, Dr. David Horrobin, describes BHT, BHA, tartrazine and other coloring materials as "...inhibitors of the conversion of essential fatty acids to prostaglandins or are chemically related to such known inhibitors."
Al Czap reports that there may be long term hazardous effects of taking such chemicals on a regular basis in vitamin and mineral supplements including coronary artery disease. BHT, BHA, chlorinated pesticides such as DDT, plasticizers, aromatics, as well as some alkanes (saturated hydrocarbons such as paraffin or wax) have been found deposited in the plaque of individuals suffering from coronary artery disease."

I'm sure you're all smart enough to know this, but I'll post to share my recent restaurant experience. For my nephew's birthday, my sister-in-law decided to have everyone meet at Old Country Buffet. I've never been a fan of the place, but decided we'd go along, figuring we could find food that wasn't loaded with MSG.
Well, neither my husband nor I succeeded. My son barely ate anything (sometimes the 6-year-old is smarter than the adults). My husband and I ended up with headaches, which is odd, because neither of us normally gets headaches from MSG or from other sources like stress.
I know, we should have known better, but... Anyway, just wanted to warn others to avoid that restaurant.

I visited an Old Country Buffet and asked them what they had without MSG. They said "nothing" and I walked back out. At least they were honest.

Last year I was invited by the Lion's Club to speak at one of their meetings. Guess where they meet each month???? Yep, Old Country Buffet...it felt very strange!
Posted on Saturday, September 01, 2001 - 8:45 pm:
BHA and BHT will give you a splitting headache rivaling your best MSG reaction! I learned this the hard way, too, by eating cereals which used it. Honey Nut Cheerios, though, are a staple and have not caused any reaction whatsoever. They don't use BHA/BHT. The fact is, any processed food, restaurant food, etc. is bad for you for a gazillion reasons. Too much fat, salt, sugar...why eat the junk at all?

hi, and thanks again for useful info!
--I haven't seen a post on "Taco-Bell" , yet... although I haven't looked through thoroughly yet.
*** KFC, and Popey's,,,, sure I know that, but what's with Taco Bell's secretiveness on their ingredients? Those tacos give me a reaction just like other fast food with msg. --and I do like them. --- but it's a big-time reaction. You'd think they couldn't hide it for long....
p.s.--- taco bueno seems to be better... at least not much reaction for me..

Taco Bell's web site lists things like sodium content, but if you want lists of ingredients, they make you call them:
"If you have any questions about Taco Bell® and nutrition or are particulary sensitive to specific ingredients or foods, please contact us at 1-800-TACO BELL"
Posted on Monday, October 01, 2001 - 6:13 pm:
Thank you Roy. This will be an ongoing enlightenment for me that'll take some time. I knew of some effects I experienced with msg, but really did not know all the other stuff I'm finding. --Not just on this site, but from university thesis writings, and a couple of gov pages... ( thus my revelation of why cheep thanksgiving turkeys made me sick ( and my Dog!!)
-Thanks for all the good info presented here.
ps. on your other post up a couple... I agree-- if only they would be honest about the presence of it , i'd gladly pay the cost of the food without eating it. I am shocked by the dishonesty our own gov allows... even in thier own words.
oh, and p.s.s.- I did see that info on the tacobell site. -I might contect them.... but I cannot dispute how it makes me feel.

What about Potassium Sorbate? I have some apricots with this in the ingredients. I have a feeling this is not okay?
And, I'm suspecting Advil and/or Claritin is giving me some reaction trouble. ANyone have any info on this?
Deb A.
Posted on Friday, October 12, 2001 - 4:06 pm:
According to Ruth Winter's book on preservatives, Potassium Sorbate is considered safe (orally taken) by the FDA, but she states that it may cause irritation of the skin. However, MSG is considered safe, too. You might read the labels of several Ibuprofen meds to determine which looks the least threatening. I have had to try several and I do not like the one I have just tried in the last month from Costco. I will look for a better generic brand. Find out what the fillers and binders are in the Claritin. They may contain glutamate. If you take it every day, it may be the culprit.
Posted on Friday, October 12, 2001 - 8:19 pm:
Debbie, My son can't take advil or most over the counter meds. You can have your doctor write a RX for IB profin made up without any additives. They can make other meds up this way too. My son takes Clariton redi tabs that dissovle in his mouth. He has no reactions to those but can't take any tablets of any kind. He is also sulfite sensative.

Claritin gave me no trouble, but didn't help me either (in contrast to Allegra, one pill of which made me sick as a dog for days):

Grand Canyon University Reviews
Browse Reviews by Popular Programs:
If you need an honest answer on whether or not to attend this school- DONT! They're supportive until you're accepted, and then all help goes right out the window. Not only was the "application process" a joke, but it's clear they allow anyone who qualified for financial aid in. They're not concerned with quality students, it's all financial for them. The professors are a joke, they do not respond to questions, the advisors are even worse. They call you constantly to check in, but when a real problem comes up they are no where to be found. I've sent several emails to them stating that I work during the day, and yet they continue to call during the work day. It's a business.When they call YOU, you're asked to identify yourself by name, telephone number and address. If you call me, this is an inconvenience, especially when I'm at work. There is nothing personalized about your experience, and conversations you have with them is forgotten five minutes after hanging up the phone. You are not a person to GCU, you're a number and a cash cow. Don't expect to receive support, and don't expect anyone to help you once you begin classes. If I could do it again, I would have chosen a different school 100%. It's been over 7 days and I'm still waiting for a phone call back from my advisor. Good luck if you choose GCU, I promise you'll be disappointed. The only reason they're getting 5 stars for financial aid services is because when it comes to money, this school is on their game. Go figure.
Completed BSN and continue MSN right now. Great counselors (C.C. and D. are the BEST) because they have so much patient with me, never hung up until my last breath with questions (I bet some were silly and repetitive). Instructors are great! They are very helpful and guide you through out. So please don't be nervous. Stay calm! Read your materials, and answer your classmate posts. Ask professor if you have questions. They check into class every day and answer any question you may have. I love all of them. I do study very day by reading my classmates' posts and reply to them. I love study at home instead of coming to class. Even though I don't see my classmates (on line) but I feel so close to them due to everyday reading and communicating with all of them. I love CLC project because you don't have to do so much work BUT you will learn so many things from reading, edit, ect. your GROUP's posts in CLC paper. What more can I say? I LOVE GCU and highly recommend whoever want to pursue BSN or MSN, PHD from GCU. You will be happy because instructors are very helpful. After earned BSN I received an increase in my salary, and feel much more confident about my career an RN. I won't stop here and I hope you all do the same.
I completed RN-BSN at GCU and just LOVE IT! I am just starting MSN in Education. It has been GREAT for the first five weeks. My professor Dr Cheryl Williams is great and so glad I am in her class. I would love to be in her class for my next two courses. She communicate well with students. She's very positive. Students learn a lot from her posts replies to you. Of course school is very stressful and no school is easy. But instructors at GCU are VERY HELPFUL! I LOVE this school and have nothing to complaint about. I do study every day and working two RN jobs. If I can do it...everyone can! All my instructors are very knowledgeable, kind and understanding. They do understand your stress, your school and work. No one make things difficult for students. Professor Steve Arnett real cool and great. He wrote me a paragraph in my post encouraged me to go on with MSN (I didn't think I would do it). Thanks to Professor Arnett and my counselors...I feel much better now about MSN programs. My two daughters also are nurses and I (as their mother) strongly encourage them to start MSN program with GCU. Library staffs also GREAT. Everyone are so helpful and professionals. After graduated I received salary increased from my two jobs and I feel much more confident in my position as a nurse (and future MSN). Don't be discouraged by reading some negative comments about GCU or staffs. And the cost for both programs are not bad. Actually much cheaper compare to MOST colleges I checked out. Many nurses in my hospital are current students or graduated from GCU and they also LOVE this school. They given us nurses scholarship money to attend school and happy that hospital nurses really love GCU.
I attended Grand Canyon from August 2015 to September 2015 DBA program. When I first enrolled the enrollment counselor called me daily. After enrolling all of that stopped immediately. The courses were the normal 2 DQs due weekly with 4 additional feedback. What I disliked greatly was the one class ending on Wednesday and new one starting on Thursday. I asked the contact to change it and they told me I couldn't (strike 1). I then asked to be enrolled in a residency that was near me in Atlanta they told me there were no spots open (Strike 2). I was taking my 7th class and asked the teacher for a specific assignment requirement he stated the assignment and I did it as he instructed and then gave me a very low grade (strike 3). I hated the fact everything had to flow thru one person regarding financial aid and questions. I asked many many times for a break in classes which I was told NO. So I decided to take my own break and leave the school. I really disliked the treatment while there. I would never go back or enroll. If you attend Grand Canyon be ready to be assigned to a student advisor and you have to wait on that one person to get back with you and do everything. I will never never never deal with any school in which only one person can help. Even if you leave a message with that person's boss you still have to deal with that one person. That enrollment counselor that was so interested in my education well guess what NEVER heard from him again. Please be aware of any school that requires you to do two residencies
The couselors are lazy and are more like cheerleaders then couselors. They are not much help but they charge a lot for tuition. Sarah Divers andBecky Goesman are horrible couselors. The school wont let you havetime off they disenroll you after 2 weeks of taking a break. They will not place you practicums like every other university. They always say dont you wand your choice where you learn? I would rather have them place me then not getting placement and making a 100 in a class then fail because you could not find a practicum. They set up practicum classes up in the summer like an idiot and tell you to go earn you practicum teaching boy scouts. They are just a nightmare to deal with and I had a couselor that did a good job but quit. I would not do it again period! For my masters im going to Northern Arizona university. They have online too!
The teacher say they don't get your work when you have proof of it being submitted. The teacher do not communicate with students. They only want your money. . The system they use if full of errors, not mobile. Read the complaints on the BBB website.
After looking at a multitude of colleges I decided to go with GCU. I'm a married military veteran and it fit with my life and is competitively priced. It is a traditional brick and mortar school with an online presence. The online component of Grand Canyon University is very well designed. The advisers are extremely helpful. The structure of the courses are set up to build upon one another. There is a lot of reading, writing, and discussion. It is eye opening and encouraging to see the varying viewpoints and theories that are presented. In order to graduate you simply have to do the work. Be proactive. It is your time and your life. The value of the education rests in what you bring and take from the experience. I had a great time, met some wonderful classmates, and learned quite a bit about myself. Now I'm going back to complete a Doctorate. If you are ever given the opportunity go visit the campus. It is beautiful!
I attended GCU to complete my BSN and decided to acquire my MSN in nursing education. I have attended campus colleges and was apprehensive to do an online course, but after taking classes with GCU I could not have been happier with the education I received. All classes were challenging with exceptionally knowledgeable, caring facilitators. The support available from all departments was helpful and sincere. The communication with instructors, classmates, and advisers was exceptional. Sharing of life experiences making lifelong friends around the world expands knowledge and cultural experiences. Great university all around!
I did the online program but I did want to choose a brick and mortar school. I can truly say it has been a great experience, I have learned a lot, great professors willing to assist you. I highly recommend GCU which has given me the opportunity to find excellent employment.
I don't agree with some comments that because the school is a for profit that they go easy on the students. This has not been my experience at all. My program is just as rigorous as a traditional institution. The instructors are extremely knowledgeable and attentive. I have attended the traditional university and I find online to be just as difficult because of the structure. However it is worth it. So far I have the same student advisor I started with last March 2014. I have two classes left before I begin practicum at which the school is assisting. I highly recommend GCU.

Beautiful hand-made gloves from a beautiful artistic soul. From your hands, to the earth, with love…
Recently I had the wonderful opportunity to meet Ms. Katherine Rohrbacher at the charming Gum Tree Shop and Café in Hermosa Beach, California. What an honor it was to meet such an amazing artist.
A friend of mine who's been a great supporter of TSF recommended I research Katherine's work (see www.katgallery.etsy.com). She turns oven mitts, dishwashing and garden gloves to works of art, putting a homemade and fashionable touch on what can be mundane and forgettable accessories.
Katherine started making dishwashing gloves over 10 years ago while attending the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, where she studied oil painting and mixed art media. Now while preparing for her first gallery openings in October (at Gallery 825 in West Hollywood and TAG Gallery in Santa Monica), she continues to make custom style gloves that are functional and adorable.
Just like a great pair of shoes, we all should have more than one pair of garden gloves. I was drawn to the stylish cherry-red pair with the trendy navy blue, apple-embroidered trim. Aside from the aesthetics, I love that the gloves are 'tall' in that the material doesn't stop at the base of your wrist. Instead they run roughly mid-way down the forearm, providing a bit of additional protection and coverage.
Katherine as a person is pretty darn amazing as well. Along with getting acclaim and coverage in Better Homes and Gardens and Mother Earth Living (all for her glove designs) – she's also a Lupus survivor. On so many levels I admire, respect and appreciate her openness to share her story, her struggle and her daily fight against such an ugly (and silent) disease. She's courageous and talented.

Whether you are a professional athlete or not, if you participate in sports or other taxing physical activities, mild hyperbaric therapy can give you the edge you need to perform at your personal best every time. Mild hyperbaric therapy speeds recovery from sports injuries, gives the athlete faster recovery from workout, increases energy and mental clarity on and off the field. By providing more oxygen at the cellular level, healing is rapid, energy levels are high and the athlete is able to focus and perform at peak levels. Many athletes report much less lactic acid buildup with hyperbaric therapy, greater endurance and less muscle fatigue. The pressurized environment of the chamber allows many to recover much more quickly from sports injuries due to swelling, dehydration and ischemia. This pressure decreases swelling at the same time increasing blood flow to restricted areas. Higher concentration of oxygen in the blood at the cellular level allows healing and reparation to occur at a much faster rate.
Sylvester Stallone used the Chamber to stay fit during the
filming of Rocky Balboa.

The 2011 harvest is officially upon us and our pinot noir fruit is already "in the barn"! This year we were given an Indian summer, cool temperatures followed by heat in September, then light sprinkles in October. Luckily all of the pinot noir made it in before the first rain.
This year we were fortunate to have several important additions to the family. First and foremost Jean Hoefliger has signed on as winemaker completing the final blend composition of our newly released 2010 offering just prior to harvest. Jean, a native of Switzerland, earned a winemaking and viticulture degree at the Swiss federal school of Changins and went on to make wines at the esteemed estates of Chateau Lynch-Bages, Chateau Carbonnieux and Meerlust. With international winemaking experience from Switzerland to Bordeaux to South Africa, Jean arrived in California where for five years he continued to hone his craft as winemaker for Newton Vineyard. In addition to directing the winemaking for Armanino Family Cellars, Jean is also the winemaker for Alpha Omega Winery. We are privileged to have Jean contribute his award-winning winemaking techniques and direction to create our elegant, first-class wines.
To ensure that our wines are meticulously cared for from grape to bottle, we are also thrilled to move our wine production to Alpha Omega Winery. This move promises that our wines will receive Jean's attentive care and nurturing throughout their journey. With Jean's attention to detail and a distinguished winemaking facility in the heart of the Napa Valley, we are confident that the wines of Armanino Family Cellars will continue to garner awards and accolades for years to come.
In addition we have had the help of a new optical sorter out on the crush pad which has taken berry selection to new heights. With five additional harvest pros on the sorting table we are ensuring that nothing but the best fruit makes the final cut.
We have seen some incredibly small berries this harvest and while that means that our production will be down the fruit has incredible concentration along with balanced acidity. At this point the fruit is finishing up primary fermentation which means that the sugar has fermented to alcohol and we are ready to press the wine off of the skins.
We are looking forward to the impending release of our 2010 vintage and welcome any and all questions you have about harvest or the new vintage!
Wash the baby's neck, chest, and arms. Do not worry about using soap on the neck and chest. When you wash your baby's hands, use a bit of baby soap. Be sure to rinse all of the soap off of her hands. Thanks.

They call it de-escalation.
In Woodland, law enforcement personnel learned this week to defuse potentially volatile encounters with mentally ill and emotionally disturbed individuals by using words instead of force.
Nineteen officers, dispatchers and security guards from across the region took part in four days of seminars and an afternoon of role playing Thursday. playing Thursday.
Mental health professionals acted out scenarios commonly encountered by police: a suicidally depressed woman, a veteran plagued by post-traumatic stress disorder, a mother with dementia, a daughter in the midst of a manic episode. Participants had to deal with the situations.
The goal, said Michael Summers, training coordinator and a former Sacramento police officer, is to de-escalate incidents.
"Cops often don't have an understanding of how confused and frightened people can be when they're in crisis, so the biggest thing is to slow things down," he said. "We're trying to get them to have a little bit of empathy."
The region has seen at least five fatal confrontations between police and the mentally ill since 2007. The most recent was last month's deadly shooting by Placerville officers of Linda Carol Clark, who stole an ambulance from a hospital where she was getting psychiatric treatment.
The Woodland training sessions began in 2008 after the death of Ricardo Abrahams, an emotionally disturbed man who walked away from a voluntary treatment facility. Police called to check on his welfare used Tasers and batons to subdue him when he became uncooperative. He died of suffocation under restraint.
This week's training at the Woodland Community and Senior Center was hosted by Woodland police and funded by Yolo County's Alcohol, Drug and Mental Health Department.
Lecturers included a psychiatrist who used an actual brain to show how bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and depression occur.
A panel of mental health consumers and their families spoke, and an officer who is also a psychologist discussed post-traumatic stress disorder among police involved in fatal confrontations.
On Thursday, students practiced de-escalation techniques through role playing. Summers asked them to set aside weapons and work through improvised situations.
Make sure people are communicating and understand you're a police officer, he said. Determine if they may be hearing voices. And no laying on of hands, he said.
In one session, nurse Sharon Roth acted the part of an elderly woman with dementia who couldn't find her wallet and car keys. She was convinced her adult son had stolen them and called police.
Citrus Heights Police Officer Vince Young and dispatcher Amanda Schroeder entered the room. "Thank God you're here," Roth said.
The son, played by nurse Taha Abdelwahhab, became defensive when Schroeder asked his name and requested he sit. She calmed him down.
Soon, Roth no longer knew who the officers were and became agitated. "Why are you in my house?" she asked.
"You know I'm a police officer, right?" Young asked her.
"I can see your uniform," she said.
"We're going to help you find your wallet and car keys," he told her calmly.
She agreed.
Young said afterward he found the role playing useful.
"All the training we do should incorporate some kind of role playing," he said. "It puts you there more than listening to somebody talk."
The actors were so good, he said, that he soon forgot he was in front of peers and felt immersed in the situation.

I have some old-fashioned varieties, with funny names like ' Red Boskoop' and 'Sweet Hollaers'. Just because I am to lazy to spray them every week, I do not use any pesticides on them. Now and again a caterpillar in the core of your apple, who cares. Meat for free!
I understand that in Japan people will have a party during the blossoming of the cherry trees. I have read this in a book by Bertus Aafjes, a Dutch writer who spend some time in Japan. Japanese families picnicking together under the blossoming cherry trees. Is that not a fantastic initiative?
From that same book I remember how the Japanese divide the flowering period of the cherry trees into three days.
Day 1: the day of the promise.
Day 2: the day of the rapture.
Day 3: Day of remembrance.
How true that is!
I think of these three days every year when the fruit trees are blossoming.
As I look at my two apple trees, the 'Sweet Hollaers' is in its day of promise, whilst ' Red Boskoop' is already in its day of rapture. Fortunately, the day of rapture often lasts more than 24 hours!
The pear tree on the street side has already stopped flowering. It blossomed overwhelming last week, but that is only remembrance now.
That's why I try to enjoy this period as much as possible. Before you know it it's over. Over?
Read this classic Japanese haiku*:
Look, apple blossom!
Now we only have to wait
For the apples.
* The haiku is a Japanese form of poetry.
