Serves 8
A hearty breakfast dish should have everything you crave after a late night of revelry. This one contains eggs, milk, sausages, cubed bread, chilies, and cheddar. Assemble the casserole before New Year's Eve, or even the day before. Then bake it while you sip strong coffee. Serve with salsa and pan-fried potatoes. You'll be well prepared for a long day of couch surfing and other lazy endeavors.
|Butter (for the pan)
|teaspoon canola oil
|breakfast sausage links
|onion, chopped
|cups (about 8 slices) cubed bread
|can (4 ounces) mild green chilies
|1 1/2
|cups milk
|Salt and pepper, to taste
|1 1/2
|cups shredded white cheddar
2. In a large skillet over high heat, heat the oil. Prick the sausages well all over. Brown them, turning often, for 5 minutes. Remove them from the pan. When they are cool enough to handle, cut them into 1/2-inch pieces.
3. In the same skillet, cook the onion, stirring often, for 5 minutes, or until softened.
4. In a large bowl, combine the sausage, onion, bread, and green chilies. Transfer to the baking dish.

The AP reported this evening, "Low tide and high temperatures caused low oxygen levels that suffocated huge numbers of fish in Plaquemines Parish, a spokeswoman for the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries said Wednesday."
According to a report yesterday by Fox 8 New Orleans, seafood dealers who encountered oiled crab on the docks contacted the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries. The dealer said, "We got a biologist that was supposed to come here. About an hour passed and he never showed up, so we called the biologist and he said my superior stopped me from coming."

In Friday's otherwise-bleak jobs report, one sector of the economy stood out for all the right reasons: The trucking industry is running full speed ahead and hiring drivers.
"We can't get trucks and that means there are not enough drivers," said Mike Mady, human resources director for the St. Paul-based produce processing firm J&J Distributing, which supplies Cub Foods and other grocers with carrots, potatoes, yams, and other vegetables and fruits.
Truckers are in hot demand, say local trucking and warehouse executives. Last month J&J, which normally has about 220 workers, added two new Class A drivers and two interns and scooped up seven workers from a temp employment agency because demand for fruit and veggies is way up.
The reason? Crops are ripe and a wider array of summer fruits are in demand, J&J officials said.
"Getting merchandise from the West Coast and East Coast to here is difficult because there are not enough drivers ... so there are new opportunities for people wanting to get into trucking, for sure," Mady said.
Sherman McCallister is one of them. It took him 15 weeks to find a new job after getting laid off from another company. McCallister credits the fact that he has a truck driver's license and driving experience from when he lived in Chicago. He was hired at J&J on May 1 and now delivers produce to Cub Foods and SuperValu locations up to 275 miles away.
"I was surprised by getting the job in just four months," especially since friends in other industries endured painful layoffs lasting nearly two years, McCallister said. "There is a big demand for experienced drivers."
Companies such as C.H. Robinson, Fridley-based Copeland Trucking, Minneapolis-based Murphy Warehouse and others echoed their own hiring bursts. The activity is showing up in economic data. The U.S. Department of Labor last week reported a gain of just 69,000 non-farm jobs nationwide in May. But more than half the gains came from transportation and warehousing.
The American Trucking Association recently reported that trucked tonnage is up 3.8 percent so far this year. And on Tuesday, Ceridian and UCLA reported that their monthly Pulse of Commerce Index rose to 94.92 in May from 94.19 in April. May marked the third straight positive month for the Ceridian index, which tracks diesel fuel purchases for trucks hauling produce, components and finished goods to factories or stores across the country.
"Transportation is highly correlated with manufactured goods that need to be warehoused and transported,'' said Steve Hine, director of Minnesota's Labor Market Information Office. The improvement in the transportation sector is part of what's behind the increased hiring but comes after a long slump, Hine added.
John Hausladen, president of the Minnesota Trucking Association, said his 700 fleet members notice the change.
"The economy is growing and especially in certain sectors,'' Hausladen said, particularly in North Dakota, where oil drilling in the Bakken fields is booming.
"We have members in western Minnesota who have trouble hiring the over-the-road drivers, because they are being lured away by the high wages being paid by the oil fields," Hausladen said. Minnesota drivers truck drinking water, mechanical supplies, sand and gravel into North Dakota and haul out sewage and trash.
The driver shortage is such a problem out west that it's created some opportunities for Minnesota Somali drivers who are starting their own truck companies, Hausladen said.
Nationally, Todd Spencer, executive vice president with the 150,000-member Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association, said his industry has chronic issues with driver turnover because of long hours, modest pay, stricter pollution rules and a recession that forced many smaller firms out of business.
But truckers are enjoying renewed demand from the spike in summer construction projects, manufacturing, the return of the auto sector and a bump from select real estate markets.
"In general, trucking has been picking up over the last 18 months. Not great guns, but a little bit, consistently," Spencer said.
The uptick is appreciated because "from 2007 to 2009, we lost 30 percent of our membership because the economy tanked so bad and for so long," Spencer said.
Tim Hoag, co-owner of Copeland Trucking in Fridley, added nine workers last month as customer calls jumped. The firm now has 72 workers.
"We are a bright spot on the employment scene. Transportation is hiring people and we are going to need more," Hoag said. "Trucking always leads the economy into a recession and it's the first to lead it out. It's a very good indicator of where the economy's going."

K-Fed Finally Shows The World He's Earned His Ridicule All By Himself
Snakes on a Plane wasn't the only opportunistically marketed entertainment product riding a groundswell of semi-ironic obsession to suffer through an underwhelming debut this weekend. On last night's Teen Choice awards, world-famous househusband and reformed background dancer Kevin Federline donned his best white-trucker-hat-and- matching-Oxford ensemble for his first-ever public performance. The predictably lip-synced affair was notable mostly for the aspiring rapper's maddening refusal to stumble into the on-stage pyrotechnics and attempt to put out the flames engulfing him by increasing the intensity of his Roger Rabbit steps, an admirable, if ill-advised, refusal to interrupt his flow. In the absence of an accidental K-Fed immolation, there really wasn't much to hold the attention once Britney Spears completed her introduction and removed her overflowing, pregnancy-enhanced cleavage from view, but if pressed for a favorite moment from the performance, we'd have to say it's when the bewifebeatered guy in the front row, presumably a member of Federline's posse, leaps out of his seat and offers some approving fist-pumps at the end of the song, which made our own wildly enthusiastic gesticulations celebrating Federline's triumph seem somewhat uninspired.

A New Leader EmergesFrom Ice to Ashes is the second book in the Titanborn series. While this book can be read as a standalone, it does end with a cliffhanger clue for the next book in the series. There is violence. The book blurb adequately describes the storyline so I'm not going to repeat that all of that info here. This book continues where Book 1 left off. The author does a good job with keeping the characters real and the struggle between the Earthers and the Ringers believable. I do want to read the next book in the series once it is written.by Susan H. on April 16, 2017

Great followup to TitanbornI really loved the decision to follow-up Titanborn with this stand alone. Here we get the perspective of the Ringers – settlers born on Saturn's moon Titan. The Ringers are treated as a subservient lower caste by the Earthborn, and you can really see the injustices firsthand in this novel. I think you could call this a sidequel, in that the action is taking place simultaneously as the action in Titanborn. From Ice to Ashes can absolutely be read before Titanborn, except for From Ice to Ashes' short Epilogue which I believe takes place after Titanborn's events. When I finished this book, I immediately wanted to reread Titanborn. Don't get me wrong, I also would've liked a straight continuation from Titanborn's amazing ending, but I can really appreciate the author wanting to give us a different perspective- a different side of Titanborn's events. This approach is not something I see often, so bravo in deciding to present the story in this way. When you can sympathize with both sides and they are both full of compelling actors, you get a great and well-rounded story. The character's motivations always make sense especially when faced with some pretty harrowing choices. Some of the characters and settings we were briefly introduced to in Titanborn were further fleshed out here. This story really flowed and the writing was clean, fast, and efficient. Bruno never gets bogged down in technical jargon or in superfluous sidetracks. I've read about five of Bruno's books already and I can attest that they do not waste time. I can really appreciate that. I still slightly prefer Titanborn, but this was a great follow up. This is turning out to be a very cool series, and I absolutely cannot wait to see what comes next.by Guillermo on April 06, 2017

An immersive and detailed universe!I received an ARC of this book with the option of leaving an honest review. In Titanborn, readers were able to see the Ringer revolution from a Collector's point of view. In From Ice to Ashes, readers get a chance to learn more about the revolution from a Ringer's perspective as we learn more about the discrimination, exploitation, and hardship that Ringers must endure. I think that Kale's character is an incredibly well-developed character. Rather than sharing all of Kale's history at once, Bruno gives readers enough information to understand and empathize with the desperation that Kale felt; the same desperation that drove him to complete what was supposedly a harmless task. As the plot progresses at a fairly quick pace, readers learn more about Kale and discover that his family history is more complex than we initially thought. Like Titanborn, From Ice to Ashes has Star Wars-like action and plot twists in an immersive and detailed universe that will leave you wanting more. I really had a hard time putting this book down and plan to re-read it soon.by Charity R. on March 28, 2017

a riveting science fiction thriller.From Ice to Ashes is a standalone set in the same world as Titanborn. I must say I liked Titanborn a bit more than this one because it took me a little while to really get into it but once I did I felt like I couldn't stop reading. I don't want to give too much away about the story and its plot but I was really impressed with it. Especially the ending had me turning page after page, not wanting the stop. And then there was that epilogue that made me gasp out loud. I loved it. I also feel like I should say that science fiction is one of my top three favorite genres and it's books like this one is what makes me love the genre so much. It was just outstanding, really. Overall, From Ice to Ashes by Rhett C. Bruno was such a riveting science fiction thriller. The non-stop action combined with the great writing and unique set of characters made this quite the page-turner. I received an advance copy of this book in return for an honest review.by Stephanie @ Bookfever on March 29, 2017

Great Sci FiThis is the first book I've read by this author and I'm hooked. From Ice to Ashes is a great story that is the story of Ringers (residents of Titan) and Earthers, the prejudice between the two and an uprising. There is lots of suspense, love and an uprising. Bruno did a great job of creating his characters. They are all strong in their own ways and each have their own agendas. Earthers have come to Titan supposedly to be partners with Titan's residents but are essentially enslaving the Ringers. This only leads to problems as it always does when one group of people try to dominate another. I really enjoyed this book and it is a 2nd in a series but can stand-a-lone as long as you don't read the epilogue. It will kind of confuse you. I did ask the author about it and he explained it was a teaser for those that read the first book about the book to come.by Diane Kasperski on March 29, 2017

One owner cars are VERY easy to do, since the original owner is the only one who knows the milage and no records are kept at the DMW (during ownership transfers). You can be the 1st owner, drive it to 200K and roll back to 50K, nobody has any records of it, other then the dealer if it was maintained there.
I'm not saying its not a nice clean car, but i hope you did some checking before you got it! Too many crooks out there; friend of mine just got a van with 40K, and after i did some checks it turns out it was 120K.

First HD 4870 listings appear in the E.U.
by Fudzilla staff on25 June 2008
- font size decrease font size increase font size
Starting at €216
It's HD 4870 day and many retailers are rushing to list the new card just as the NDA is being lifted. Not that it makes much of a difference: we already know everything about it and nobody has it in stock yet. As previously reported, the HD 4870 will suffer from limited availability in the first days and weeks on the market, mainly due to the GDDR5 shortage.
We managed to find cards from Sapphire, PowerColor, Gecube and Asus listed. Sapphire's 4870 is currently listed at €216 and this sounds very reasonable, indeed. Cards from other vendors are priced anywhere from €229 to €269, but we're expecting them all to sell at €220-€230 once they become available.
All of the listed cards are reference designs and it seems only Asus is offering a bundled game, Alone in The Dark, but we'll have to wait for official press releases to see just what is offered.
We will post our review of the HD 4870 later in the day, so stay tuned.
You can find the listings here.

Workshop on Breakthrough ResearchWorkshop on Breatkthrough Research
Design for Breakthrough Research in an Academic Setting
November 11-12, 2005
Monterey, California
GCEP held a workshop on breakthrough technology research which addressed the following questions:
This informal two-day workshop explored the best approaches for encouraging breakthrough research in academia; it provided GCEP with options to consider in attracting proposals and stimulating research that may lead to breakthroughs in energy technologies. The first day of the workshop focused on industrial experience in breakthrough research processes and the experiences of government programs in encouraging breakthrough research in academia. The second day included presentations from a diverse selection of university programs on their experience in the breakthrough research processes. This was followed by a set of group sessions where participants developed suggestions on how to encourage researchers to propose ideas that are step-out, yet aligned with a specific technical objective. The workshop was held at the Hyatt Regency Monterey and was attended by Stanford faculty, along with representatives from GCEP sponsors and other research institutions.

I'm in desperate need of some help. I'm in the very beginning stages of building a dresser(a very simple mid-century modern style,) and my wife's decided she wants the top and sides to meet with a miter joint. Is this even possible? I just can't imagine how I'd be able to cut 23" miters with hand tools. Of course, the seam would need to be absolutely perfect -- I'd want no gaps whatsoever, and will not be able to rely on filler. Does anyone have any advice? All I can think of is to create a 45 degree jig for the fence of a rabbet plane(which I'll have to buy.) Is there a better method or tool for this job?
Also, what kind of strength would this joint possess? Wouldn't I have to augment it in some way? Would I use a block on the inside of the corner? Or dowels?
I can't believe I'm even considering this kind of joint, and am kind of freaking out. Any help would be much appreciated.

My name is Angela Koch, a Chicago graphic designer with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Graphic Design alongside a minor in French. The arts have always been in my interest since I was young and quickly enrolled in a local after school art program, the Julien Art Centre, where I continued learning and progressing my fine art skills until I eventually become the art assistant to the teacher. I ended up teaching young kids the skills of drawing and painting that I had learned when I was a student there. With the Julien Art Centre I assisted in mural work which later led to working on my own murals.
With a such a large background in fine arts I did not want to choose between fine art and digital art, graphic design, so I often bring a unique style to the table by combining my fine art skills into my graphic design as often as I can. My art and my style is constantly evolving as I'm constantly inspired. Having studied graphic design in Chester, England, during a semester, I have experienced a universal view for design which has broadened my knowledge. I travelled often to other European cities to study the art and architecture, absorb the culture, and develop as an artist. As an avid French bi-lingualist, the dream is to be surrounded in the city full of inspiration, history, style and art–Paris.

Editor's Letter
s there a more loved feeling than being licked in the face by a 100-pound canine? Growing up in northeast Missouri, I had the quintessential 'boy and his dog' relationship with a massive German shepherd I named PC (i.e., privileged character). He was a huge part of our family, but there was no question: PC was my dog. He slept on the floor in my bedroom every night; woke Jim me every morning. He Williams followed me everywhere; and plunged into deep doggy Editor depression each year when and father I attended Boy Scout camp. of three The summer before I left for college, PC became sick… very sick. It was as if he knew our time had passed. I took him myself to our local veterinarian. Friends accompanied me; everyone knew about my relationship with this big dark-haired shepherd. There, in the vet's office, PC licked my hand one last time…still trying to provide comfort…and I 'let him go.' For me, it was a life lesson. I know the joy and unconditional love pets can bring to a family. A year ago, we bought a puppy for our kids, a feisty dachshundpug mix named Winnie. She has taken on the role of 'queen and protector of the manor.' My kids love her, and one day, they'll share their own Winnie stories. And then there's Ginger. Our Total Kid cover pooch makes house calls. She is one of several therapy dogs that not only brighten the lives of patients at Banner Children's hospitals, but also provide a form of healing that traditional treatments can't match.

TOYS save the day
In many cases, patients young and old are advised to begin moving shortly after surgery, as doing so helps internal organs resume their normal function and aids in faster healing. Just try telling that to a groggy 9-year-old who's not, shall we say, feeling motivated. That's when one of Banner Children's toy closets — located at Banner Estrella, Banner Thunderbird and Cardon Children's medical centers — may just save the day. Wendy Pauker, child life manager at Banner Thunderbird, said many young hospitalized patients at these sites are given the opportunity to choose a toy from the closet — if they get up and walk down the hallway to it, of course. Nine times out of 10, the fun incentive program does the trick, she said. Each patient's case is different; not all patients visit the closet — some may be satisfied with stickers and a sticker chart — and others may need to first complete a set of tasks. No matter the circumstances, Pauker said keeping kids motivated, and on the mend, is always the main goal.

Cocoon of protection
f you're pregnant, add the Tdap vaccine to your — and the father's — list of preparations for baby. Paul Mikel, M.D., a Banner Health Center obstetrician and gynecologist, said Tdap — a vaccine that protects against tetanus (lockjaw), diphtheria and pertussis (whooping cough) — is recommended for women in their seventh month of every pregnancy and adult men who've recently fathered a child. This fairly-new government recommendation was issued by the CDC in 2012 after almost every state reported near-epidemic proportions of whooping cough, he said, including California, which reported the deaths of 10 babies from the disease. The increase in cases is attributed to several factors, including the decreased potency of more recent vaccine formulas. While many adults find whooping cough no more bothersome than a mild cold, babies three months and younger are particularly susceptible to the condition, which can lead to hospitalization or even death. When babies sickened during the epidemic-like rise in cases were tracked for the source of their infection, 30 to 40 percent were found to have been infected by their mother and another 10 to 20 percent were found to be infected by their father. So, now the goal is to have everyone who's around a newborn, especially the main caretakers, be up-to-date on their Paul Mikel, M.D., vaccinations, Mikel said, to Banner Health create a "cocoon" of protection Center Obstetrician for the little one. • TK and Gynecologist Winter 2014
Treating ADHD
How do I know if my child has ADHD? Is medication the only treatment option?
When making a diagnosis of ADHD, physicians will get confirmation from the parents that their child is not doing well, often because he cannot focus on more than three tasks at a time, such as brushing his teeth, cleaning his room and coming downstairs after completing those activities. A child with ADHD may get 'lost' after doing just the first task. But there also has to be multiple reports of this kind of behavior before a diagnosis is made. The behavior is likely seen at home, where a parent notices the child's homework or bookbag is a mess, and there should also be a school report, which may indicate the child has difficulty focusing and concentrating, has to get up a lot and move around or isn't paying attention when the teacher is talking.
Sravanthi Pajerla, M.D.
Banneraffiliated child and adolescent psychiatrist
The common thinking used to be, especially with younger kids, that the only way to treat ADHD was with medication. But we're seeing more evidence now that behavior training — such as teaching kids how to problem solve — is really important, too. Kids with ADHD get upset because they can't learn the way other kids are learning, so when they begin feeling frustrated by school work, they decide they don't like school anymore and may get labeled as troublemakers. Parents need to encourage their ADHD kids to keep doing things, like homework or even cleaning a room, even though they're not perfect at it. These kids need to be taught to organize themselves and learn what works for them, like maybe taking frequent breaks during homework to get up and run around. • TK
High temperature
My child has a temperature. When does it merit a trip to the doctor?
John Sarmiento, M.D.
Banner Health The answer depends upon the child's age, Center but here are some general guidelines: pediatrician • A fever is 100.4 degrees and a "high fever" is 102 degrees Fahrenheit or higher. If a kiddo is three months or younger and has a fever, call a doctor immediately; this will usually merit a visit to the ER. • With a child three months or older, physicians are concerned more with how sick the child appears than the temperature. If symptoms are severe or the child is vomiting, dehydrated or lethargic, see a doctor regardless of the child's temperature. • An infant or young toddler with a fever but no other symptoms should see a doctor if the fever lasts more than a day or two; he might want to evaluate for a urinary tract infection. • A persistent fever of 104 to 105 degrees would merit an office visit no matter the symptoms. Knowing what to do can be confusing because many benign conditions present with a high fever and many severe conditions present with a mild fever. Just don't forget that fever is the body's natural response to infection, so there's no need to fear it! • TK
enyon Antone is a lively 10-year-old who enjoys running, playing baseball and basketball and dreams of becoming a Navy SEAL or a Marine. "I like helping people," the Mesa fifth-grader said. And so it may come as a surprise to learn that this active, self-described "ordinary kid" has spent an extraordinary number of hours in hospitals as a result of his asthma. Diagnosed with this chronic condition as a baby, Kenyon is one of many youngsters that the pulmonologists at Banner Children's Specialists treat for respiratory illnesses.
disease's onset can begin at any age; and the condition can come and go throughout one's lifetime. While no one really "outgrows" asthma, Carter said, up to a quarter of children with asthma will experience asthma that becomes "inactive" later in life.
'They've helped us so much'
Bernadette Alvarez, Kenyon's mother, said that her son has probably been hospitalized 10 times for his asthma. Although they're still not certain about all his "triggers," which include colds, dust and pollen, they've become more attuned to his health. "If he gets a virus or cold, I immediately put him on the breathing machine," Alvarez said, referring to
BREATHE Diagnosing and treating respiratory illnesses in kids
Ted Carter, M.D., Chief of the Pulmonary Division at Banner Children's Specialists
While several conditions wreak havoc with kids' airways, two of the top three problems that Edward "Ted" Carter, M.D., a pulmonologist with Banner Children's Specialists, sees each year are RSV (respiratory syncytial virus) infections, which can be especially problematic for infants, and dysphagia (swallowing problems), another condition that's troublesome for babies. But asthma is the most common childhood respiratory illness.
Asthma is a 'highly prevalent' condition
"One in every 10 to 15 children will have asthma at some time in childhood," said Carter. "It's highly prevalent. There are probably two kids in every class that have it, and probably one of them doesn't know it because the asthma has not yet been diagnosed." In fact, there is no clear diagnostic test for asthma, and its symptoms aren't well understood, he said. The stereotypical "wheezing" sound children with asthma are supposed to make does not ring true for every patient. Rather, coughing is the most common symptom, and it can be a "dry, hacking" cough or a "wet, junky" version that can linger for weeks, and is often worse at night. What's more, a child with asthma can have it without ever having an asthma attack; the
their home nebulizer, a portable machine that turns liquid medication into a mist that Kenyon inhales. They've also learned a lot from Kim Byrne, R.N., the asthma educator at Cardon Children's Medical Center, who has taught them about how to recognize when Kenyon's asthma is getting worse and taught them about his asthma medications and how to take them correctly. Alvarez said getting a handle on Kenyon's asthma also allowed her and her husband, Esequiel, to better deal with Kenyon's epilepsy diagnosis last year.
RSV and Dysphagia
As for RSV, it's one of several highly contagious viruses that can cause severe respiratory infections including bronchiolitis. "Infants and the elderly are especially susceptible", Byrne said. While most adults who get RSV can deal with the symptoms, infants often have more severe infections that go deeper into the lungs. RSV peaks from December through April, and while most people who are otherwise healthy don't need special care, severe ymptoms in a patient of any age require professional medical attention. "We'd rather see a baby early than too late," Byrne said. While Carter said the public seems well versed on the symptoms and seriousness associated with RSV in infants, another respiratory issue that he'd like to shed some light on is dysphagia, which is difficulty with swallowing. While one type of dysphagia can occur after someone has had a stroke, Winter 2013

the type Carter is referring to is the kind experienced by infants, usually in the first nine months of life. A baby's swallowing coordination may not be fully developed at this age, so while a baby is drinking, some milk may drip into the airways and be sucked into the baby's lungs. "Dysphagia is a common problem in infants that doctors often miss, and parents don't know about it because it's not well publicized," he said. A baby with dysphagia may not have symptoms, or may wheeze, make gurgling sounds, cough and choke when drinking. Luckily, there's often an easy solution: thickening the baby's milk or formula with rice cereal or oatmeal cereal. When a thin liquid such as milk or formula is thickened, it's easier for the infant to direct down the esophagus and, therefore, doesn't drip into the trachea as easily. Just be sure consult your doctor first before trying this. Fortunately, most babies usually outgrow swallowing problems by 15 to 18 months. • TK

Winter 2014
While a visit from a therapy dog can be viewed as merely a pleasurable highlight to a hospital stay, Banner Thunderbird's child life manager, Wendy Pauker, said a visit can also contribute to healing. "If a dog is here, we might say, 'Hey, do you want to get up and see the dog?' and that might be what it takes to get a child who's tired or in pain up and moving around," she said. Likewise, Lane said, hospital staff or a patient's parents might, for example, use a dog's presence to encourage a disinterested youngster to eat.
"Dogs give unconditional love... the patient doesn't have to earn the dog's love. It's a very powerful need, and it's being fulfilled." "They might say, 'Take a bite for you and take a bite for the dog,' " she said, adding that the dogs are successful in getting kids to do things their parents can't. Patients who have requested a visit from a pooch are seen first. Then, it's off to the pediatric floors for many of the dogs — but not all of them. Baylee, a twice-abandoned rescue dog of Newfoundland and mastiff descent, is excellent with children, said owner Susan Goers, but the duo nevertheless sticks to the floors with adult patients. As a pup, Baylee's growth was stunted after he became dehydrated, so although he should be around 140 pounds, he's only 110. Which is still an imposing presence, she noted. "Kids tend to be afraid of him, so we interact more with adults," said Goers, who enjoys the program as much as Baylee seems to. "I love it, just seeing the looks on the people's faces and knowing that you're helping people is so neat." • TK totalkid.azcentral.com
For Parents
"What we wish parents knew"
often see parents who think they're giving their kids — who are perfectly healthy and well in range of where they should be on the national growth curve — a dietary boost by giving them nutrition drinks formulated for children. One reason this happens is parents look around the playground and see friends' kids, who may very well be overweight, and they start to think their own child is skinny. There are other factors, like genetics, an environmental component that includes discipline, and a structured eating environment, which also play an important role in childhood nutrition. I'll also hear parents say, 'My kid doesn't eat vegetables,' and they feel these drinks are a good supplement. That's when I have to point out that these drinks are recommended for kids with nutritional problems, not for children who are healthy."
Banner Health Center, Goodyear
Raj Patel, M.D.
wish more parents would get creative in the kitchen and at the grocery store to discover foods that their kids find both nutritious and delicious. I have a fouryear-old, so I know how challenging this can be, but there are easy, natural ways to boost nutrition. Try swapping French fries, for example, for broccoli fries that Sprouts sells in the frozen-food section. Or, instead of a snack like potato chips, offer kids a low-fat dressing as a dip with veggies like tomatoes and broccoli. I'm also a big fan of doctoring food. Costco sells a good pasta sauce with no sugar in it, and I'll add spinach to it as well as my recipe for Sloppy Joes. Just steam some spinach, puree it in the blender and then pour the puree into an ice cube tray and freeze. Then, the next time you prepare a sauce that could use a dose of veggies, just put a cube in a microwave-safe dish, defrost it in the microwave and blend the puree into the sauce. How easy is that?" • TK TOTALKID TOTALKID
Learning that you have diabetes may change the way you live, but it doesn't have to change your dreams. That's the message IndyCar driver Charlie Kimball brought to Cardon Children's Medical Center a few months ago when he visited with the hospital's young patients and their parents. Here, Kimball shares some thoughts on his own diabetes diagnosis just a few years ago and the importance of staying on track when it comes to managing the condition. By Charlie Kimball In 2007 my career as a professional race car driver was just starting to take off and then I was diagnosed with diabetes and everything came to a sudden stop. I really didn't know much about diabetes and I had no idea how much living with diabetes would change my life. But, with the support of my doctors, family and friends, I was able to come to terms with my diagnosis and from that moment forward, I knew I was not going to let diabetes get in my way or slow me down. If you have been diagnosed with diabetes or you know someone who has been diagnosed, the most important thing to realize is that people living with diabetes do amazing things. And you can do amazing things too!

Three things that help me each and every day: Have the support of your team
Just like I have a pit crew at the racetrack that helps me in the race car, I have a diabetes team who is there to support me. Talk to your team, ask questions and don't try and do this without them.
Preparation is key
If I do a good job managing my diabetes in the days leading up to a race, I don't have to worry about it in the car during a race. It's important to work with your doctors and the other members of your support team to have a plan and it's equally important you manage that plan and make it part of your everyday life.
Don't let your diabetes slow you down
Living with diabetes does not mean stop living. Do the things you want to do and live the life you want to live. The most important thing about living with diabetes is the "living" and not the diabetes I have long felt those of us in the diabetes community are part of a special group of people. I know every time I get in the race car, I am not just racing for me and the team, I am also representing the diabetes community and I love that we can be there for one another. • TK Winter 2014
Join a support group
earning you have diabetes can be overwhelming for anyone — much less a child — but outpatient support groups at Banner Thunderbird and Cardon Children's medical centers help young people and their families adjust to the many life changes a diagnosis can bring. Rachel Calendo, pediatric diabetes program manager at Cardon Children's, said the hospital has both a family group and a teen group that meet at least once each quarter. Activities may include outings to the zoo or education-based activities, such as learning how to use an insulin pump.
"Our goal is to get kids talking and to have them be less stressed," she said, "but the whole family is going through this. It's a big change for the entire family, and a lot of times, siblings feel left out, so we make it a point to include them."
evening of each month, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at the hospital. The meetings help patients, parents and siblings better understand the condition. After all, a disease like diabetes does require a child to become more self aware, she said.
Other topics may include learning how to incorporate coping mechanisms into one's life and, particularly for parents, managing the financial stress a chronic condition can bring on.
"When you're eight years old and you're not used to watching what you eat, having diabetes makes your life a bit more structured," Ward said. "And you have to be compliant, or you can get really sick." • TK
"Families have so many costs associated each month with diabetes supplies and medication," Calendo said. "It can be a burden." Over at Banner Thunderbird, a new support group for children with Type 1 diabetes and their families started just a few months ago. Ronda Ward, a clinical education specialist, said the group meets the second Tuesday

• Be vigilant year-round about water safety • Make sure doggie doors do not have access to a pool • Use high locks on sliding glass doors that lead to a backyard pool • Be aware that several plants, including lantana and Mexican bird of paradise, can be poisonous to children
• When using pots/pans on the stove, point handles away from the front so youngsters cannot grab them • If cleaning supplies or anything potentially poisonous is stored under the kitchen sink, put a child-safe lock on the cabinet doors • Immediately drain water from a bucket after use • Post emergency phone numbers by the telephone and refrigerator • Keep all knives and scissors out of reach of children • Keep dishwasher detergent "pods" far away from children, who might mistake the cleaning supplies for candy
• In households with a toddler, put a child-safe lock on all toilet lids • Immediately drain bathwater after bathing • Keep prescription and overthe-counter medicines locked away and out of reach of both young children and teens
Homes can be full of hidden dangers. Tracey Fejt, R.N., offers advice on keeping children safe in the house.
Winter 2014
• Set the home's hot water heater at 120 degrees Fahrenheit • Keep detergent "pods" for washing clothes away from children, who might mistake the cleaning supplies for candy
• If window shades/blinds have looped cords, cut the cords to prevent strangulation hazard and use cord stops or safety tassels • If windows lift up to open, install window guards or window stops. Install safety netting on a second-floor window or deck • Use a firm mattress in a crib and make sure it fits snugly • Do not use bumpers in a crib as they present a suffocation hazard • Do not use a crib if the slats are more than 2 3/8–inches wide; otherwise, a baby may be able to put his head through the space and get stuck
• Keep button batteries (often found in musical greeting cards, remote controls and toys) away from children; the alkaline in the battery can burn a child's esophagus • Watch your visitors' purses, too — curious kids like to rummage through Grandma's satchel and may encounter medicine or other substances that could be harmful to little ones • Use outlet covers; simple, plug-in styles are acceptable • Check the smoke detector monthly and replace batteries annually; replace a detector older than 10 years even if it's still in working order • Use tall lamps behind larger pieces of furniture • Keep exercise equipment in a separate room in the house • Secure any furniture that could tip over (bookcases, TVs, chest of drawers) • Install safety guards on sharp corners of furniture and other items (kitchen island, for example) • Keep in mind that scorpions like your warm and cozy house, too; if stung, call Poison Control first before heading to an emergency room or urgent care facility • TK Source: Tracey Fejt, R.N., injury prevention coordinator and outreach manager for Banner Children's at Cardon Children's Medical Center in Mesa
Kids' Activities
WARM & TASTY COLD-WEATHER TREAT Need something healthy to warm you up? Kids can make this healthful recipe — adult supervision and/or assistance may be necessary depending on your child's age — which is nutritious and satisfying and ideal for a cold-weather break.
Bean and Cheese Quesadillas • 15 ounce can black beans rinsed and drained • 1/2 tsp ground cumin • 1 ounce shredded reduced fat cheddar cheese • 8 8" lowfat flour tortillas • 4.5 ounce can minced green chilies drained • 1/4 cup mild salsa • 2 tbsp minced cilantro • 1/2 cup nonfat plain yogurt • vegetable cooking spray Step 1 Place the beans in a large bowl and mash with a fork. Add the cumin and mix well. Set up all ingredients in an assembly line to be layered in sequence on the tortillas. Step 2 Place one tortilla on a plate and spread evenly with
about 1/3 cup of the mashed beans. Next spread about 2 tbsp green chiles over the beans, followed by tbsp salsa and a teaspoon of minced cilantro (optional). Step 3 Sprinkle evenly with 1 tbsp of cheese. Place another tortilla on top. Repeat procedure with remaining 3 quesadillas. Step 4 Spray a large nonstick skillet with vegetable oil, and heat over medium-high heat. Cook quesadillas until golden drown- about 3 minutes on each side.

ENJOYING WINTER FAMILY FUN Ready for a change of venue? Whether you're heading up north for sledding or skiing or off to a local ice-skating rink, always keep safety in mind when it comes to winter activities. Use appropriate, well-fitting gear and be sure to heed a few of these tips from healthychildren.org, the website of the American Academy of Pediatrics:
Ice Skating etiqutte: • Advise your child to: - Skate in the same direction as the crowd - Avoid darting across the ice - Not chew gum or eat candy while skating - Consider having your child wear a helmet while ice skating.
Sun Protection • The sun's rays can still cause sunburn in the winter, especially when reflecting off snow. Make sure to use sunscreen on your child's exposed skin.
Sledding rules: • Sledding feet first or sitting up, instead of lying down head-first, may prevent head injuries. • Consider having your child wear a helmet. • Use steerable sleds, not snow disks or inner tubes. • Sled slopes should be free of obstructions like trees or fences, be covered in snow, not ice, not be too steep (slope of less than 30º), and end with a flat runoff. • TK
In General • Set reasonable time limits on outdoor play to prevent hypothermia. Be sure to have children warm up periodically.

BROWNSVILLE, Brooklyn --There's a new development in the tragic crash that killed a 13-year-old girl sitting on her building stoop on Saturday.
The driver's death has been ruled a homicide.
Police say he was stabbed in the chest shortly before he got behind the wheel and lost control of his SUV in Brownsville.
The suspect has been identified as 51-year-old Kenneth Risher of Brooklyn, who remains on the run.
Police believe the driver, 44-year-old Sean Lewis, was a loan shark trying to collect money from Risher.
13-year-old Kira Goddard had been hanging out with her friends when the tragic crash claimed her life.

The Delegation starts on 10/05/2017 in Albania
The delegation of US Congress arrives in Albania tomorrow to enquire over Soros' political connections
14:00, 09/05/2017
foreign policy: "have transformed Albania into a Banana Republic" : Samir Tahiri, Arben Ahmeti, Ilir Meta, PM: Edi Rama
May 8, 2017, 12:04 am
Congressional delegation jets to increasingly tense region where failed Soros-Obama policies are still in force.
House Judiciary Chair, Republican Bob Goodlatte (R-VA) is leading a 15-member delegation on an urgent mission to Greece, Bosnia, Albania, Macedonia, Kosovo, and Italy as evidence mounts that Obama-era favoritism continues — to the detriment of citizens, local institutions, and regional stability.
The Congressional Delegation (known as a codel) departed Saturday for a ten-day investigation during the congressional recess.
A House Judiciary communications staffer refused to comment citing security concerns.
Although six of the nine members traveling are Republicans — including conservatives such as Steve King (IA), Tom Marino (PA), and Jason Smith (MO) — the nature of Congressional foreign travel makes a codel dependent on the State Department; in this case, Ambassadors in each country are Obama administration holdovers who continue to implement inherited policies.
It's hard to imagine the delegation getting unbiased information from embassies that have been highly interventionist in local politics according to significant communities in each country.
General Prosecutor vs. Embassy Tirana
A nasty stand-off emerged this year between Albania's Office of the Chief Prosecutor, a politically neutral national entity, and Chinese-American Ambassador Donald Lu.
"Prime Minister Edi Rama, backed by the U.S. Ambassador, has destroyed the independence of our judiciary," declared a prosecutor speaking from Tirana by phone to The American Spectator. "Under the banner of judicial reform, they are succeeding to politicize it."
Edi Rama, longtime leader of the Socialist Party, is a close friend of George Soros, whose network is deeply involved in Albania, partnering with the U.S. Embassy on numerous projects, including an $8.8-million USAID project on…you guessed it, judicial reform.
"When we expressed any professional opinions different from the U.S. Embassy — professional opinions on different approaches, Lu got angry," said the prosecutor, unwilling to be named. She explained the European Union's Venice Commission, designed to help vet reform proposals for compliance with European law, often sided with the Albanian prosecutors in these technical disputes.
The prosecutor added, her office tried to prioritize drug trafficking and criminality, major issues in Albania, while the U.S. embassy dismissed massive cannabis cultivation and export as "not a U.S. problem." Divergent priorities held by Albanian legal authorities and the U.S. embassy is confirmed by independent news site Exit.al.
Donald Lu punished the prosecutors and judges who disagreed with him by revoking U.S. visas, already granted, to some 70 judges and prosecutors according to Chief Prosecutor Adriatik Llalla.
In response, Llalla blasted Ambassador Lu, accusing him of manipulation and blackmail, in a scathing letter posted on the office's website and in a press conference February.
Llalla also accused Lu of trying to prevent his office from investigating corrupt practices by a major Chinese-owned firm, Bankers Petroleum.
As a Washington Times headline on this conflict summarized three months ago, "Soros-infected State Department Plays Games in Albania."
Political Crisis in Macedonia
Not satisfied to mismanage his own country, Edi Rama has reached into neighboring Macedonia, provoking profound instability in an aggressive effort to help fellow socialists — and fellow Muslim Albanians.
The U.S. Embassy is widely considered to be siding with the socialist party in Macedonia as it does in Albania.
Rama convened a meeting of three Macedonian-Albanian political parties (some 15-20% of Macedonia is ethnic Albanian) and drafted the so-called "Tirana Platform," a dangerously separatist document threatening Macedonia's very identity.
These Albanian parties then entered into coalition with the Macedonian socialists and are demanding the right to form a new government — against the ruling conservative VMRO-DPMNE party, which has, until the current crisis, managed the most successful free-market economy in the Balkans.
Across the country, Macedonians are protesting en masse against the Tirana Platform and against Ambassador Jess Baily, considered biased against VMRO. Most recently, conflict erupted inside the parliament.
Again, most local officials have different priorities than the embassy: Macedonians have suffered centuries of incursions from neighbors. They are mostly concerned about security, while the Americans are feeding ginned-up NGOs money for "mobilization" and "activism."
As Macedonian-American leader Bill Nicholov wrote in late April, "The US State Department and US Embassy in Macedonia are… meddling in Macedonia's internal affairs, and it has wreaked havoc and perpetuated attacks on Macedonians' ethnic origin and sovereignty."
Nicholov begs President Trump to reverse course in the small country, north of Greece.
Crisis on Top of Crisis in Greece……………………..
George Soros's Contributions to a Cannabis Hotbed
Albania's socialist prime minister, Edi Rama, is the only foreign leader who came to the U.S. to trash talk Donald J. Trump last year, possibly at the behest of his close friend, George Soros. "God forbid" Trump wins the Republican nomination Rama told CNN's Richard Quest. Trump's election would "harm a lot America and it […]
Macedonia to George Soros and USAID: Go Away
Small but mighty Macedonia is the mouse that roared this year, declaring war on George Soros, 86, and his U.S. Government handmaidens, who, incredibly, have financed a left-wing agenda to divide the nation and bring a socialist-Muslim coalition to power. It was the kind of Obama Administration manipulation that was so routine that it passed […]

Leicester meet succumbs to frost

This afternoon's meeting at Leicester has been abandoned due to a frozen track.
Clerk of the course Jimmy Stevenson announced a second inspection at 10.30am but the ground was still found to be unfit for racing.
Overnight temperatures dipped to as low as -6.2C.
"We needed that sun to come out, but it's just not happened," said Stevenson.
"It's not going to warm up enough in time, so we've had to call it a day unfortunately."

The only place in LA to see Unfinished Paintings and have a critical dialogue about them
Good Lord my friends, I am losing track of important exhibitions, and so missing out on alerting you to GOOD STUFF.
Two are the many openings at LACE tonight:
Unfinished Paintings, curated by Kristin Calabrese and Joshua Aster. To my mind LACE is the only place that would be able to host this exhibition, which asks artists to share with the public works in progress. How tantalizing, and what a generous idea for an exhibition. LACE, with its history of supportive engagement with artists is just the place for a painter to feel the trust – and to inspire the audience to engage with respect. Awesome work Kristin and Joshua.

Speculative, curated by Christopher O'Leary and Zachary Blas.
Casey Alt, Zach Blas, Jeff Cain, Micha Cardenas & Elle Mehrmand, Xarene Eskandar, Michael Kontopoulos, Christopher O'Leary, Claudia Salamanca, and Pinar Yoldas.
I do not know anything more about Speculative. I certainly will tomorrow after the opening tonight!!!

BANGOR – Ed Kotahla and Mike McGee stood in front of the scorer's table at midcourt as their basketball teams went through warmup drills. A typical pregame coaches conversation, a few chuckles and grins masking the nerves before matching wits in a point-worthy game between rivals Bangor and Lawrence.
Who knew back in the 1970s, when they played against each other in summer youth games, that someday the two would meet as head coaches — one guy starting anew with high school basketball in Maine, the other ready to call it a career when the season ends.
Their meeting came Wednesday night at Red Barry Gym in Bangor.
"(Kotahla) is a great hire for Bangor," said McGee. "You couldn't find a better person or a better guy than Ed."
"If this really is it, (McGee) has a lot to be proud of. He's built a very competitive program," said Kotahla. "His teams are as hard- nosed and defensive-minded as any in the state."
Both men are basketball lifers. It's just that the game has taken them in different directions for the past 30 years.
Kotahla left Maine, and coached high school and college teams in Florida, Georgia, Texas and Michigan. Three years ago he came back to his home state as an assistant with the University of Maine men's team.
"For me, coaching and teaching at Bangor is sort of a homecoming, back in Maine coaching high school," said Kotahla. "I started as Jim Bessey's freshman coach a long time ago. I was blessed to be part of the college game for the last 15 years, but high school is where my roots are."
McGee bleeds Lawrence blue. Always has. First as a player and now as coach for three decades. But before the first game of the season he said he handed in paperwork to let administrators know this is his last year.
"I love this team, I love 'em. I came in with some wonderful kids back in the 1980s when I was freshman coach. Now I'm going out with great kids. I consider myself one of the luckiest guys in the state to be doing what I'm doing and I get to go out of my terms."
Kotahla and McGee coached their teams hard on this night. When the final buzzer went off, Lawrence had a 52-49 win.
"Some things, like the length of the game, lack of a shot clock, it's forced me to rethink a lot of the things I've learned," said Kotahla, "but it's a return to what I know originally. It's gone well and it's fun."
"I'm kind of a historian of the game," said McGee, "and going to these gyms for the last time is tough. Saying goodbye is tough."
One high school basketball season. Two coaches viewing it from different perspectives.
GARRETT LIBBY of Old Town was the top scorer in the Big East B basketball conference through December, averaging 23 ppg.
He is the grandson of Don Sturgeon, who won state titles at Old Town as a player (1957) and coach(1967).
GRACE MACLEAN of Bangor broke a 27-year-old Penobscot Valley Conference/Eastern Maine Indoor Track League high jump record at the on Friday. Her jump of 5-feet 6-inches broke the league record set in 1986 by Kim Hamm of Bangor (5-5).


text: Yah ever wonder how the 'tv stuff'' gets from your tuner, could be built-in or set-top box flavor, to your screen. HD1080i has a rather nice explanation of the process, although, we would still like to see a magic school bus episode with that crazy teacher flying through the inside of a DLP cabinet. By understanding what is actually going on, a person therefore can track down and fix issues with the picture a lot easier. Digital signals travel on a sort of transport stream made up of Mpeg signals. It is also this practice that can create those 'blocks' on the screen everyone loves to hate. Those 'blocks' are caused by lack of bandwidth and the hardware trying to produce something for the area affected. Like stated in the hd1080i article, if you see LOTS of block, call your cable company as they might not know there is a problem in your area, but unfortunately, some of these blocks are considered normal. This article might bring to light what is actually going on in that colossal HDTV of yours but we still think a ride in the magic school bus would be better.

Fads that need to go: remaking movies and songs that were just fine the way they were. Piggybacking on that - things like the previous statement that I remember my mother saying as I rolled my eyes!!

I lived in Cleveland when I got married. Every wedding must have at least 1 polka and every wedding band must have 1 member that can play an accordion for said polka. It's state law, I swear to God man. Look it up. Donny Baker knows it's true.
But, Unk, I think that's only in the Cleveland area. I remember going to my Great Aunt & Uncle's 50th celebration, and I polka'd all night long!
At least you guys have bands. Here many people just have a DJ who plays music from a computer and it's always the same songs every wedding. I'm so glad none of my friends are thinking of getting married anytime soon.
Yup, with donuts!!
i was 18 when i learned to polka. i was a cocktail waitress at the local eagles club and i learned quickly that if i danced with the old guys when they had live bands on saturday nights, i'd get bigger tips. *cha-ching!*
Over the top fake people! By that I mean people who just act SOOOO phoney that you wonder if you'll ever know who they really are.

We had an elderly couple who lived next door to us when I was a kid.
