I have been cooking a lot of whole chickens as of late. A local grocery store had a sale on several Saturdays in a row on whole chickens for $.69/lb. That was a deal I do not want to pass up, so I would always head off there and get my max allowed 2 chickens. I would usually freeze one and cook the other one soon after. Eventually started tiring of the same old roast chicken, so I searched out some other methods. One I came upon was Alton Brown's Broiled, Butterflied Chicken. I have never done either of these things with chicken before, so it was the perfect idea.
I have tried this recipe twice now and both times ran into some issues, but I think my third attempt will be the charm. Read below my experiences from this recipe. You can find the entire recipe at Food Network's website.
1) Butterflying the chicken was easier than I thought. A good pair of kitchen shears will easier help you remove the backbone. The harder part is removing the bone, so that the breast can lay flat. Alton makes it look easy in the show, but it I had to mess with it a bit to get the bone off. Hopefully with practice I will get better.
2) The first time I broiled the chicken, I did so with the rack at the lowest level. But it was still raw in the middle after the 30 minutes it says in the recipe outline. I would use my probe thermometer to get the exact temperature but in this case the broiler is too harsh of any environment for that. What I discovered when reading the first volume of Good Eats, is that the book tells you to broil it for 25 minutes, then flip and another 25, much longer than the online instructions say. This would probably solve the problems I had.
3) The second time I broiled the chicken, I read the book halfway through after being frustrated the chicken still wasn't done even when I moved it to a higher position in the oven. Some of the skin was pretty black. I ended up having to finish it by turning the broiler off and just roasting it at 425.
4) The next time I try this I am going to follow the book and do it 25 minutes each side as well as keep the chicken on the lower rack, so I don't blacken it.
5) Alton makes a sauce out of the chicken drippings. I haven't tried this yet, because both times dinner was later than I wanted and I didn't want to take the time to try it.
Sometimes with recipes, you have to work with them a bit, figure out what works for you. Don't just give up with the first "failure". Both times my chicken still turned out moist and juicy (especially the 2nd time as I brined it). It just took longer because I keep taking it out of the oven. But I am confident when I get it right, I will be happy with the results.
If you are a fan of a crispy skin on your chicken, then it's worth the effort to master this recipe. You can get that crispy skin without drying out the meat underneath. So it's a way to have your cake and eat it too.

Gay marriage, transgender issues, and climate change were just some of the items that US President Barack Obama mentioned during his recent State of the Union address. The President's comments on these issues show that he is basing his thinking, and trying to make sure that America as a whole bases its thinking, on man's word. God is clearly not the authority in his mind—man is. Sadly, this is a reality across America as our culture is becoming increasingly secular and is rejecting the Christian and biblical foundation that once permeated the nation.
Civil Right or Moral Wrong?The President said this of gay marriage: "I've seen something like gay marriage go from a wedge issue used to drive us apart to a story of freedom across our country, a civil right now legal in states that seven in ten Americans call home." Gay marriage is not a civil rights issue—it's a morality issue! Marriage is not open for President Obama, the White House, the Supreme Court, or anyone else to redefine. The government did not invent marriage—God did. Marriage is God's creation and therefore God—and only God—has the right to define what marriage is and is not. And, according to God's unchanging Word, marriage was designed to be between one man and one woman (Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:4–5). So, far from being a civil rights issue, gay marriage is an issue of who is the authority: man or the Creator, God?
Actually, people who want a relationship between two men or two women recognized as a marriage are borrowing the concept of two people in such a relationship from the Bible—back in Genesis where God created two people. However calling a romantic relationship between two men or two women a "marriage" is simply a perversion of what true marriage created by God in the first place is all about. The devil so often tries to counterfeit what God has done. If people want to have romantic relationships other than a man and woman for life in a marriage bond, then that's up to them, but it is not a marriage. They will have to answer to the Lord for their actions. The goal of continuing to try to force the idea that gay marriage is a civil rights issue is to eventually make it illegal to speak against gay marriage like the Bible does. Yes, this could become a major Christian persecution issue in the culture. That would be a blow to freedom of religion and free exercise of religion.
Transgender Community Gets Historical Shout-OutPresident Obama also became the first President to ever recognize the transgender community in a State of the Union address:
There's one last pillar to our leadership—and that's the example of our values. As Americans, we respect human dignity, even when we're threatened . . . That's why we defend free speech, and advocate for political prisoners, and condemn the persecution of women, or religious minorities, or people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender. We do these things not only because they're right, but because they make us safer.This reference excited members of the transgender community. According to the Washington Times, "President Obama is being lauded by members of the gay community for becoming the first president to ever use the words 'lesbian,' 'bisexual' or 'transgender' in a State of the Union address" and reportedly the executive director of the Transgender Law Center is calling it a "historic" occasion. A writer with Slate says, "This shout-out is a considerable victory for both bisexual and transgender Americans, who have struggled to achieve mainstream recognition—especially in Washington—for decades. It's an especially exciting achievement for the trans community, which just closed out a year of astonishing victories, both political and cultural. With his respectful, equality-minded embrace of the trans community on Tuesday, Obama likely gave this once-maligned group a significant boost in visibility. 2014 was an amazing year for trans rights. 2015 may be even better."
But what this comment from the president really shows is that he values man's opinion over God's Word. Yes, all human beings should be treated with dignity because they are created in the image of God (Genesis 1:27), but in approving of these behaviors he is clearly disregarding what the Bible has to say about marriage and gender. Sadly, when he says "we . . . condemn the persecution of . . . people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender," what he likely means is that those who dare to stand up for biblical values related to marriage and gender will suffer persecution at the hands of the government. This is something that is becoming increasingly common across our nation and will undoubtedly only continue to rise.
What would President Obama say to Jesus about His statement in His Word that "from the beginning of creation,'God made them male and female'"(Mark 10:6)?
God did not make them "male, female, transgender, bisexual, lesbian, and gay" from the beginning! Certainly Christians should show love for those who disagree with God's Word in regard to gender, but part of that love is pointing out that participating in, promoting, and celebrating gay, transgender, bisexual, and lesbian lifestyles are sinful actions.
It seems that President Obama wants to make it illegal for Christians to be able to call sin, sin!
"Women's Right to Choose"?In the address, President Obama said, "We still may not agree on a woman's right to choose, but surely we can agree it's a good thing that teen pregnancies and abortions are nearing all-time lows, and that every woman should have access to the health care she needs." According to Fox News, President Obama had threatened to veto a bill that was going to ban abortions after 20 weeks. The bill is no longer up for consideration, but the President called the bill "an assault on a woman's right to choose."
A statement issued by the White House one year ago said, "one we recommit ourselves to the decision/the guiding principle: that every woman should be able to make her own choices about her body and her health . . . Because this is a country where everyone deserves the same freedom and opportunities to fulfill their dreams." I guess everyone deserves the same freedom, that is, except unborn babies. I encourage you to read more in a previous blog post about the Roe v. Wade decision, why our world is so full of death and sorrow, why you should choose life for unborn babies, and how you can choose eternal life through our Lord Jesus Christ..
Also, notice that we see increasingly President Obama use the word abortion as a synonym for health care. Abortion is not health care—it is sin!
What's Really the Greatest Challenge to America?Well, climate change was also mentioned during the President's address:
And no challenge—no challenge—poses a greater threat to future generations than climate change. 2014 was the planet's warmest year on record. Now, one year doesn't make a trend, but this does -- 14 of the 15 warmest years on record have all fallen in the first 15 years of this century. I've heard some folks try to dodge the evidence by saying they're not scientists; that we don't have enough information to act. Well, I'm not a scientist, either. But you know what -- I know a lot of really good scientists at NASA, and NOAA, and at our major universities. The best scientists in the world are all telling us that our activities are changing the climate, and if we do not act forcefully, we'll continue to see rising oceans, longer, hotter heat waves, dangerous droughts and floods, and massive disruptions that can trigger greater migration, conflict, and hunger around the globe. The Pentagon says that climate change poses immediate risks to our national security. We should act like it.Now, while the president makes it sound as if the danger of climate change is utterly settled and indisputable, this is simply not true. Many scientists—including over 9,000 PhD scientists—don't think that climate change poses a significant threat to our planet. Actually, as we've stressed before, what you believe about climate change will be influenced by what you believe about the age of the Earth. Most of those who hold to long ages believe that the climate has been relatively stable for many thousands of years. According to them, any change in the temperature is dramatic and is likely man made. But, when you start with a biblical worldview, you have a completely different picture of Earth's past. The world was recently created and was destroyed by a global Flood about 4,350 years ago. This dramatically changed the climate—including causing an Ice Age! When you start with the Bible, the ice cores that are generally interpreted by secularists as a record of Earth's climate over thousands of years were laid down quickly during the post-Flood Ice Age. So, the question of climate change is directly influenced by what you believe about the past. And what you believe about the past is influenced by whose authority you ultimately accept—man's word or God's Word.
Actually, "no challenge—no challenge—poses a greater threat to future generations" than a neglect of God's Word! Without God's Word, we can't hope to understand where we came from, why we're here, what our problem is, what the solution is, and where we're going. Without God's Word, we have no basis for morality, human dignity, freedom, hope, or purpose. And, most importantly, without God's Word, we don't have the life-changing gospel of Jesus Christ.
We need to pray for our leaders, especially President Obama, that they would submit to the Lord Jesus Christ and start basing their thinking on God's Holy Word, not on man's fallible ideas. And we need to be bold in standing on the authority of the Bible from the very first verse. We need to be salt and light, proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ to a dying culture. And remember this:
Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, while evil people and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work. (2 Timothy 3:12–17)Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying,

Course description:
This course will provide an experience of relating integrated forms of general and systems thinking and organizational theory to leadership development that relates to organizational life, with particular attention to faith communities and non-profits.
The two significant lenses used during this course will be adaptive leadership and Bowen family systems theory. Students in the class will be challenged to look anew at Bowen family systems theory (or Bowen theory) and develop an increased capacity to analyze the various applications to organizational life offered by Edwin Friedman, Jenny Brown, R. Robert Creech, Victoria Harrison, Israel Galindo, and Peter Steinke (often referred to as the Bowen-Friedman axis) as well as newer partner in the thinking, Tod Bolsinger. Adaptive leadership principles will be included as a means to look at how leaders and organizations manage the emotional processes of change and loss and maintain the intentions of the organization and its mission.

The third vow of the Baptismal Covenant invites Christians to "Proclaim God's Good News Through Word
And Example." This invitation asks Christians – individually and collectively - to connect the story of God's
action in human history with our own stories through a three-fold practice of Story-Keeping (collecting and
maintaining the wisdom of a community), Story-Sharing (listening to another's experience and offering our
own) and Story-Making (adding to the communal story by putting faith/beliefs into action). The challenge
for today's Christian leaders and ministers is that a significant portion of the U. S. population – baptized as
well as unbaptized - does not know the Christian Story. Course members will learn to read context/s
(generational, cultural, ecclesial), to assess individual and communal needs, and to develop skills in the use
of appropriate story-sharing methods and media for evangelization and faith formation.

Course description
This course explores inherited assumptions and patterns of Christian congregational life in light of new apostolic environments. Perspectives on missional ecclesiology offer a framework for renewing congregational identity and practice. Students engage insights from organizational, leadership and innovation theory as well as bring insights from their own contextual experiences.
Christianity, at its roots is dynamic, relational, and incarnational. Once upon a time, people walked to the ends of the earth preaching, teaching and embodying the Gospel of Jesus Christ, because their lives had been completely changed by their encounters with Jesus and Jesus' followers. Early Christianity, as it told of and incarnated the life, death and resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth was a movement, a tsunami, upending and rearranging religious, social, economic and governmental structures.
How do our faith communities embody these attributes today? How have we strayed from our origins? How do we as lay and ordained Christian practitioners, lead communities of faith that embody the promise of God's Kingdom as it was made known to us in Jesus? How might we re-imagine our congregations and our ministerial structures so that we might return to the missional origins of the Gospel?
I am not interested in saving the church as it is, rather I long to change our church so that it may embody the love of God as it was made known to us in Christ Jesus. This will be the focus of this course and these will be the goals with which we will wrestle. I look forward to our conversations and our ability to learn from one another.
This course uses a hybrid format: teaching and learning take place both online and in the classroom. The course uses the Moodle online learning platform for communication, conversation, readings, assignments, and reflections.
The course will meet at Bexley Seabury Seminary at 8:30 am to 4:30 pm on June 4-8, 2018. Prior to the classroom week, students are asked to complete reading assigments and prepare a 15- minute presentation, lavishly illustrated with visuals, to be given the first days of class that introduces his or her own congregational context. Through lecture, interactive exercises, video, and classroom dialogue, participants will actively engage the course topics.
Issues of global contexts and diversity will be incorporated into the theological and practical reflection sessions and in the student final paper. Classroom presentations will prompt discussion and reflection around such concerns as community inequality, difference and ethnic/racial diversity.
Differing learning styles will be honored through use of both individual and interactive learning activities, written and oral contributions, and varied presentation strategies.

How do order, community, sustainability, and livability in the built environments we inhabit affect us as we lead communities of faith? These are some of the questions we'll look at in this class. You'll develop skills in analysis, evaluation and theological assessment of places, and will assess the relation of urbanism to the gospel, the common good, and the church's mission. The course involves several local field trips and field work.

Parents across Lichfield and Burntwood have been finding out if their children have been allocated their chosen primary school for next year.
Nine out of 10 parents across Staffordshire have been offered their first choice primary school, with 97 per cent given one of their top three selections.
Eric Robinson from Staffordshire County Council said: "Last year we were awarded nearly £13million towards primary school places in the county, in recognition of rising birth rates.
"We have already added capacity in Fradley and Lichfield by making better use of existing accommodation or through building new schools, and this will continue for the next few years."
Across the county, 8,897 places were allocated, with 8,167 getting their first choice.

While the weather may still be warm and the feeling of summer still hasn't left yet in Northwest Indiana, there's plenty to think about when it comes to your HVAC system. To steal a phrase from a popular TV show, winter is coming and it'll be time for your heating system to kick into high gear. Here's a look at why thinking about your HVAC system now is important and what you need to keep in mind as the cold months start creeping in.
Winter can be brutal on your HVAC system
The heating and cooling effectiveness of your HVAC system is important during all seasons, but winter is one of the worst times to have to deal with problems with your home's heating system. During the summer, a faulty HVAC system can cause discomfort in the boiling heat, but it cannot compare to the more serious issues a faulty heating system can bring. You can't fix the extreme cold with space heaters and below freezing temperatures can pose a dangerous situation for you and your family.
What threatens your HVAC system in the winter?
Heavy snowfall and ice-cold winds can put a serious dent in the longevity and productivity of your system. If you know of any issues that are causing issues with your system, now is the time to get them fixed. Waiting until the winter months can cause even more issues, provide a more uncomfortable experience waiting for your HVAC system to be repaired and cost more money.
Things you can do now
There are a few regular steps that you can take now to make sure that your system is running at max efficiency. This includes:

This is Pi Day #059
At the risk of diving too deeply into the meta-story behind this particular comic, I'll reveal that for about a year now the Girl and I have been having an ongoing argument about power tools. To be exact, she manifested the idea inside her head that it would be a good idea to buy some lumber and build a bed for her doll.
The plan, which I had mixed emotions about, involved about twenty bucks worth of lumber and carpentry skills that I most certainly do not possess.
A big part of my #dadlife has been trying to encourage the Kid to take on projects bigger than herself, tackle eclectic hobbies, explore skill-building crafts, and unravel the complexities of the world… but it was always at the least convenient, most "why now?!" moments when she would suddenly pronounce that "we need to go to the hardware store so we can buy some lumber…"
I've been trying to jumble that experience into a comic for the better part of six months, and finally it has bubbled to the surface as this simple gag if only because at the heart of her argument has always lay that one caveat: if you're not going to help, dad, I'm old enough to do it myself thankyouverymuch!
Do you Like Web Comics?
Hey! Me too! What a coincidence.
This is Pi Day is an independent web comic about fatherhood, running, video games, science, art, independence, integrity, imagination and just generally ... family adventure. It is created, written, illustrated, and promoted by Brad Salomons from a quiet suburb of a remote Canadian city called Edmonton, Alberta.
Looking for more pi? We regularly celebrate at the great circle of math, science and technology culture. This is Pi Day has been calculated as the product of one geeky dad, one curious kid, and an irrational volume of corny dad jokes.
New full strips are published on Saturday mornings (and shorts, appearing randomly whenever I draw them). This is Pi Day will always be free to read on this site, but if you enjoy it please help me out by sharing the link on social media or supporting in other ways.

Mac Office 365 users have been requesting a SkyDrive Pro syncing client, to improve the Office for Mac and SharePoint Online experience. While Microsoft is on a roll with listening-and-doing, will this be addressed? Is there something for Mac in the pipeline?
[UPDATE 4-Sept] Mark Kashsman, Senior Product Manager for the SharePoint team at Microsoft, responded with this comment about SkyDrive Pro support for Mac.
Our current Mac support for SharePoint Online and SkyDrive Pro (SDP) is via the Web browser, Safari. Specific to SDP, you can drag/drop from the desktop into Web SDP (try it if you haven't yet). I know this is not what you are asking. We are actively planning next phases of SDP development for Web, apps and sync clients – with focus on addressing Mac in the mix of innovation. You'll see much Mac focus from MSFT. Hang tight and thanks for the comment.
Our current Mac support for SharePoint Online and SkyDrive Pro (SDP) is via the Web browser, Safari. Specific to… http://t.co/nFLwkehsHT
— Mark Kashman (@mkashman) September 3, 2013
Thank you Mark, for letting us know that a Mac SDP sync client is in the works.
Come to think of it, has anyone heard anything about the next Office for Mac? 2014? Will it have improved integration with SkyDrive and SharePoint (on-prem and online), like we saw with Office 2013? Will it include a SkyDrive Pro standalone client for syncing?
Here's some posts that make some guesses and fuel some rumours about Office for Mac 2014.
Microsoft Office for Mac 2014 release date, rumours and leaked images
The "leaked" images are of Office 2013 taken from a Windows 7 PC. So excuse that claim. But it's an interesting read.
Microsoft's Office for iOS, Android: Not until fall 2014? 10 April 2013.
While this is an old post, it's the closest thing I could find to a release date. We've already seen Office for iPhone and Android Phones released. Is IOS / Android still to come?
The 1.5 wave of the Gemini updates is set for April 2014, the roadmap indicates. This is when the Office team will deliver the next version of Mac Office and an update to Office for Windows Phone.
If you've heard anything more about Office for Mac 2013 or a standalone SkyDrive Pro client for Mac, feel free to add your comments and links.

The 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion cordless drywall screwdriver kit (model XSF03MB) breaks new ground for drywall contractors. It is ideal for hanging Sheetrock, metal framing, installing subfloors, backer board, and decking applications. It's powered by a Makita BL™ Brushless Motor for longer run time, increased power and speed, and longer tool life. With the exclusive Push Drive™ Technology, the 18V drywall screwdriver can be set on lock-on mode so the motor starts only when the fastener is engaged. This gives contractors a quieter work environment, and also saves on battery power. It's built for added durability with extreme protection technology (XPT™), which is engineered for improved dust and water resistance for operation in harsh job site conditions. The 18V LXT® 4.0 Ah battery provides 35% more run time per charge than the 3.0 Ah battery (BL1830), yet it charges in only 40 minutes – the fastest charge-time in the category – for less downtime and increased productivity. For added convenience, the battery features an integrated L.E.D. battery charge level indicator. It's part of Makita's expanding 18V Lithium-Ion series, the world's largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style battery. Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls™. STAR Protection is communication technology that allows the star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT® and compact Lithium-Ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating STAR Protection inside.

Safety At Play
Playground Safety
All parents want their kids to have the opportunity to learn and grow in a safe environment. Playground falls are one of the leading causes of emergency department visits for kids. Thankfully, keeping kids safe doesn't have to mean keeping them inside. There are lots of ways parents, teachers, and caregivers can ensure kids are staying active, safe and learning. Remember, active supervision is always the best defense! A few key tips can help make outside play areas as safe as possible.
- Playground falls are a common cause of injury, and most are because of landing surfaces. Look for playgrounds that have wood chips, shredded rubber, or pea gravel under swings and monkey bars.
- Be careful of what kids are wearing as they play. Drawstrings or loose clothing can get caught and strangle a child, so remove them before play.
- Big kids and little kids play differently. Be careful of lifting kids up to areas they can't reach, as those items weren't designed for their developmental stage.
- Be aware of the dangers around slides. Metal slides can get very hot in the sunshine, so be careful of bare legs to avoid burns. Never let a child ride down a slide between an adult's legs, as their legs can get caught underneath the adult. Catch them at the bottom and enjoy seeing their happy face.
- Always make sure playground structures are maintained, without peeling paint, missing screws, or sharp edges. If you see anything that looks broken, contact the site staff, whether its a school, municipality, or park authority. Riding down a slide with a child on your lap can tangle their legs in yours, and even break them. Let the child ride down by themselves, and be there to catch them at the bottom.
Are your kids playing Pokemon Go? Read our safety guide Being Safe and Smart: Pokemon Go (PDF).
Wheeled Sports Safety
A Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) certified helmet is the easiest and most effective way to prevent a head injury in a bike crash.
Make sure the helmet fits by taking the Helmet Fit Test:
- Eyes: When the helmet is on your head, you should be able to see the rim of the helmet when you look up. That's one or two finger-widths above your eyebrows.
- Ears: After you buckle them, the straps of the helmet should form a snug "V" around your ears.
- Mouth: When your mouth is open all the way, the straps should touch your chin, nice and snug!
Helmets Aren't Just for Bikes
Scooters have one of the highest injury rates of any toy, so wearing a helmet on anything with wheels is important! Be a positive example – adults need helmets too. Replace helmets after a fall or after 4 years of use.
Winter Sports
The opportunity to do fun activities outside is one of the best things about living in Michigan. Ensuring those activities don't end in someone getting hurt is even better. Follow these tips to stay safe on the ice, slopes, or sledding hill!
- Tens of thousands of kids are injured every year while sledding. When looking for a good hill to hit on your saucer, make sure it isn't too steep, there are no trees, that the snow isn't icy, and that the bottom of the hill is far from roads or driveways.
- Teach children to roll off a sled if it is going too fast, or aiming toward something unsafe.
- Steerable sleds are best to avoid other riders, trees, and streets.
- Helmets on sledding hills are recommended. It can be really difficult to guarantee no one will collide, especially on a popular hill. Protecting that brain is always first priority!
- Make sure your child's equipment fits properly. Skis or snowboards that are too big or too small make someone more likely to fall, or crash into someone or something.
- Never let kids ski or snowboard alone. Most ski hill injuries happen when someone loses control. This most often happens when someone goes beyond their skills. Parents can help make sure kids stay in control.
- Even experienced skiers or snowboarders should wear helmets. (This means you too, Mom and Dad!) Make sure the helmet fits the right way, and is designed for winter sports - bike helmets won't provide adequate protection. Replace a helmet after 5 years of use or a significant blow.
- Be aware of muscle fatigue and symptoms of frostbite or hypothermia. A couple hours on the slopes means it's time for soup and hot chocolate, giving everyone and their fingertips time to warm up.

Texas is the 31st most connected state and its called home by a remarkable 266 broadband providers. Despite those numbers, there are 56,000 people in Alabama with no access to broadband. No cable. No DSL. No fixed wireless. No mobile internet. Nothing.
Of the 26.5 million Texans, 3.1 million have access to only one wired provider. Of course, that means ISP (internet service provider) can old them hostage, raise rates, or alter the terms and conditions of their contract. Because those people have no competitive options). And 1.2 million depend on fixed wireless or mobile broadband with low data caps.
A huge number of Texans need help to avoid the Digital Divide that separates wealthy Americans from needier ones. The state's overall poverty rate is 17.5%. Its child poverty rate is an eye-popping 26%. Its senior poverty rate is 16%. And its extreme poverty rate is 7.3%.
But fear not, because CheapInternet.com knows a number of ways you can get high-speed broadband internet access at prices far cheaper than you ever imagined possible.
Low-Income Internet Options
Here is the internet's most complete list of companies and organizations that offer low-income Americans low-cost, high-speed internet access. And when we say low-cost, we're talking about plans whose prices range from free to $14.95 per month for broadband internet. Different companies offer different prices, different types of Internet (i.e., cable, DSL or mobile), and different ways to qualify, so check them all out to see which low-income program is right for you. Click on any of the programs below to see full details on what they offer.

Lifeline Broadband Pilot Programs
The Lifeline Assistance program, which offers free government cell phones to low-income Americans, has helped millions of needy Americans. The program has been so successful that the Federal Communications Commission decided to investigate the possibility of creating a similar program called Lifeline Internet or Lifeline Broadband.
Fourteen cable companies and service organizations were selected by the FCC to test pilot programs in various regions around the country. The pilot programs looked into the impact of various pricing plans, discounts, and equipment.
We expect the FCC to announce the results of the pilot programs and perhaps even announce the introduction of an official Lifeline Broadband (or Lifeline Internet) program before the end of 2014. Although you can no longer sign up nor participate in these programs, you may be interested in seeing what the future of free internet may look like in your state.
Who: TracFone and Technology Goes Home
Where: Wisconsin, Washington, Texas, Massachusetts, Maryland and Florida
Budget: $915,000
Contact: 617-635-2822 (Technology Goes Home); 800-867-7183 (TracFone)
TracFone's pilot program offers differing combinations of free or discounted hardware combined with service at a cost of $10 or $20 per month. The purpose of this TracFone and Technology Goes Home pilot program was to test low-income customers' sensitivity to upfront and ongoing prices. By comparing two different offers, TracFone was expected to estimate the adoption and success of each offer.
Municipal Broadband Networks
Wikipedia defines a Municipal Broadband Network (often called Community Broadband Network) like this: "Municipal broadband deployments are broadband Internet access services provided either fully or partially by local governments. Common connection technologies include unlicensed wireless (Wi-Fi, wireless mesh networks), licensed wireless (such as WiMAX), and fiber-optic. Although many cities previously deployed Wi-Fi based solutions, municipal fiber-to-the-home networks are becoming more prominent because of increased demand for modern audio and video applications."
Unfortunately, there are no municipalities offering broadband networks to the citizens of Texas. You can lay the blame at the feet of state law.
According to gigaom.com, Texas "prohibits municipalities and municipal electric utilities from offering telecommunications services to the public either directly or indirectly through a private telecommunications provider."
We'll keep you posted if the situation changes in the Lone Star state.

I recently watched a video of a Thelonious Monk perfomance. At times Monk would stare at the keyboard as the rhythm churned on, hands in his lap, and thenas if prodded by an electrical chargehe would stab out at the keyboard, adding the perfect sudden notes to the song. Fujii, in her own animated way, does the same thing. She must be something to watch.
Fujii's longer pieces have always seemed more satisfying: "Warp" and "Caught in a Web" from Minerva ; "Silence" and "Slowly and Slowly" from Bell the Cat. With the very extended "Illusion Suite" her themes are able to unfold in natural fashion. For these ears, Duke Ellington's Suites were the crowning of his artistic vision, and one wonder's if Fujii will go in that direction. This is a very auspicious leaning that way.
Bassist Dresser and drummer Black are more incorporated into the sound here, and that, in part, is why Illusion Suite surpasses (no small feat) Fujii's previous trio work, or anything else she's done. The entire set has an inspired feel to it, especially Jim Black's unconventional percussion modesthe sounds of tromping on floors and slamming of doors, sleigh bells, and manic snare attacks.
Satoko Fujii's vision has come into a sharp focus here, on a set of sounds that feels like a nourishment for the soul. Her best, a top ten disc of 2004, for sure.

Fast food is exceptionally popular in Singapore and the industry has been consistently growing over the years. Why wouldn't it? It's fast, easy and most importantly, convenient. Even though fast food is almost always unhealthy, the benefits simply outweigh the drawbacks for those who do not have time. With Singapore's busy & hectic lifestyle, it's a no-brainer that many would turn to fast food as their main food source.
The king of the industry is, of course, McDonald's. It is the most popular fast food chain in the world, according to a report in QSR magazine, raking in 35.8B in 2015. And one of the most sought-after items on the menu is the McSpicy, which is par for the course considering Singapore's love for spicy food. However, everyone knows how unhealthy the McSpicy is by now. Just by looking, you can tell that it definitely will not help you to stay fit. Are McSpicy calories really as high as they seem to be?
How Healthy Is The McSpicy?
Well, we did some research on McDonald's own nutrition calculator and found that the McSpicy packs a whopping 522 calories. While this might seem reasonable, a whole cup of cooked rice has only 280 calories in total. Not only that, but it is loaded with fat. 25g, to be exact. 5.1g of that consists of saturated fat, which increases your cholesterol levels and puts you at a higher risk of heart disease. It also contains 1.28g of salt, which makes up more than 1/5 of the daily salt intake recommended by HealthHub. Notably, these statistics do not include the fries or drinks that come with the meal.
Even just getting small fries as a snack may not be ideal (although they are delicious). The default option for a meal, which includes small fries and a small coke, adds almost as many calories as the burger itself, with 436 calories. The fries by itself has 14g of fat, with 2.1g being saturated.
However, there are ways to make your McDonald's dining experience a little easier on the arteries.
How To Eat Healthier At McDonald's
1. A Side Of Healthiness
Instead of having a set meal with fries and coke, change it to a corn cup and plain water. The corn cup, unlike the fries, is actually healthy. It has 66 calories and only 1g of fat, with only 0.2g of it being saturated. Changing your drink to plain water helps to cut your carb intake by 39g as well as lowering your calorie intake by 153 calories.
2. Deserting Your Desserts
Instead of ordering a McFlurry or Chocolate Fudge Sundae, try the vanilla cone. While ice cream itself is generally not healthy, the vanilla cone is by far the best option if you have a sweet tooth. The McFlurry has 402 calories with 14g of fat (6.7g saturated), while the Sundae contains 343 calories with 11g of fat (6.7g saturated). On the other hand, the vanilla cone only has 147 calories and 4g of fat (2g saturated). Your winner: the vanilla cone.
3. The Main Change
As much as we don't want to admit it, most of the food in McDonald's is unhealthy. But, there are a few items on the menu that are actually really healthy for you. One of these items is the Grilled Chicken Salad Delight 500 w/ Coke Zero. So just how good is it? It's really good. It only has 261 calories, 25g of carbs, 23g of protein, and only 7g of fat (1.9g saturated). It's perfect for a light snack or to pair with another small meal. The other item is the Skinless Grilled Chicken McWrap with wholegrain bread. While not as healthy as the salad, it does have its merits. It has 337.6 calories, 22g protein, 16g fat (4.2g saturated fat), 26.4g carbs and 889mg sodium. Even though the sodium count is high, the McWrap might be your best shot at eating a decently healthy meal at McDonald's.
