The Delhi trip, and how I survived it -
We are on our way back from Delhi where we had been to attend the wedding of a very dear friend's niece. The groom too was known to us very well. It was an event we were rather looking forward too, and it didn't disappoint.
The bride was someone both of us have known since she was a child. She has- and has always had- one of the most dazzling smiles I've ever seen and is extremely smart without being nerdy.
Unlike my husband. He is, or can be on occasions, extremely geeky, without being in the least bit smart. This can be irritatingly impractical. He spent a half hour once at an airport explaining to a completely disinterested kid why the sum of the first n natural numbers is n into n plus one over two and all the while we were being paged for boarding, earning us dark stares from our co-passengers and the crew. And if the kid grows up into a dysfunctional adult with an irrational fear of bespectacled people, you know who's responsible.
Speaking about geekiness, I am reminded of our courtship days -we had the old fashioned arranged marriage- when I was extremely was anxious to know what kind of a dweeb I was marrying. My sister advised me to find out from conversations. Since I was in Mysore and Naren in Bombay, the only way this could happen was over the phone.
Those conversations did not go well, let me tell you. The first time we spoke over the phone, after the hellos and the how-are-your-parentses, he explained to me why the square root of two is an irrational number. My first post-engagement phone conv and I get this!
The second time he told me what he thought about the planned economy - not much, apparently and I should care! - and the call after that was a detailed outline of Michael Porter's theory of Competition. When I tell you I went into this marriage in a state of despair, I'm sure you know exactly how I feel.
If Naren were ever captured by an Amazonian tribe and prepared for roasting on a spit, his escape plan would be to engage the headman in conversation and prove to him that the square root of two could not be expressed as a ratio of two integers. His reasoning being that the headman, upon seeing the proof, would immediately fall to his knees and the entire tribe would worship him as the god who did things to numbers. Which is why it is dangerous to marry engineers. But I'll leave that for another post.
Coming back to the topic at hand, viz. Delhi, I must confess I had a superb time. The weather was nice and chilled, if a little smoggy. A lot like Mysore in the winter, which made me nostalgic. To combat the blues that usually accompany nostalgia, I decided to squeeze in a session of retail therapy in which I managed to find some lovely footwear and shawls.
Naren is always cribbing about my alleged footwear obsession but he is easily silenced with a look. This time too, it was no different. One basilisk stare and he was following me like a lamb. And just to show him that I'm not obsessed with footwear, I bought myself a shawl, a stole, two kurtis and two salwar suit materials. So there. But to his credit, he carried all the bags faithfully and without complaint. It might be that he loves me. Then again, it might be that I let him have beer with his lunch. The latter, I guess.
And now here's the pilot mumbling something over the speaker. Flying over Baroda, 35,000 feet and other unsupported observations. I've always thought a pilot's job stressful, flying a whacking great can through the air at 800 km per hour, wondering all the while if that little monkey of a ground engineer has tightened all the bolts.
Of course, supeerficially, pilots have a great time because there is virtually no way of verifying if any of what they say is actually true. Statements like "We are flying at 35,000 feet" are the safest because no one is carrying a measuring tape, and even if they are, definitely not that big. Some pilots get carried away and tell you that the temperature outside is -40 degrees knowing fully well that you can't open the window and check for yourself.
But all of this does not make up for the stress of being an airline pilot. Take landings, for instance. I can well imagine the scene in the cockpit when the plane lands. Especially the way the pilot applies the brakes when the plane touches down.
You know how it is. The plane touches down, bounces a couple of times and then -and here I'm relying on my skills of logical deduction- the pilot presses the brake pedal really hard, probably with both feet, his hands clutching the armrests of his seat, or the steering wheel, if a plane has one, his knuckles white with the strain, the co-pilot hunched over with his head between his knees,sobbing out a prayer, hoping against hope that the bloody thing will come to a halt. And when it finally does come to a halt, the pilot, with shivering hands, probably pulls out his tucked-in shirt, trying to cover the fact that he has peed in his pants. I'm not saying that is what happens, but I'm willing to bet this is almost exactly it, scene for scene. This is what is going to happen today as well. I hope they manage to make it stop.
Ah, they're announcing our landing. In Mumbai, this usually means an half hour of circling, but hopefully today we'll be luckier.
The Spice Jet stewardesses have the most amazing singsong way of reading out the flight announcements and the safety drill. I haven't heard anything quite like this, including the "eternal god" prayer my sons are forced to say everyday in school. I am especially impressed by the announcements in Hindi, which sound exactly like Queen Elizabth the Second would, if she were given a crash course in Hindi speaking. I wonder what prevents them from speaking like normal people.
Bye for now, folks. I think the pilot will be going into his brake routine anytime now. I could use the laughs
Cheers and bye for now

This whole episode was really nice though, and I'm glad Fino finally got some new clothes. I completely understand the lure of getting a new paycheck though and wanting to spend, spend, spend. Hopefully, she'll be more careful next time.

Damn Fino was at dangerous levels of cute in this one . Will agree that dress definitely looked great on her and props to the saleswoman. Definitely suited to her.
The episode as a whole was pretty fun. Took something like this for Fino and Raul really to get their own feelings a little. Not that they officially got together, but a good episode for both to become more conscious of each other.
Lot of cute moments really. The dangers of a new paycheck are terrifying. Raul will just have to look after her until her next paycheck .
Then came the end there. Not surprising when you think about it. Fino had to be known at least in some circles. After things started to change she was probably chased after by former heroes needing someone to fight again. Pressured and pushed to take her father's position so that they had purpose once more.
Didn't think about it, but wouldn't be surprised if those were Raul's old friends. The effect is pretty clear. You saw that great sword Raul liked going from the millions down to 100,000. That's a pretty serious drop in value. Of course just annoying that guys like that are harassing Fino because of all this. If these guys want purpose so badly they should just go to the demon world and raise up an army. Though then they couldn't be "the good guys" anymore.

Fino is the closest thing to a "waifu" that I've ever seen. How can one girl be so perfect?
The anime is really pushing RaulxFino, which makes the show all the better for it. If Airi was the main girl this would be just another forgettable harem romp, but Fino lights up the screen with her presence. Raul better man up next ep and get revenge for her, because such an awesome character does not deserve to be roughed up like that.
If Picard helps out with Enterprise assist this will be one of the best harem shows ever

I have to say the question about what Fino should do is actually interesting. Of course I'm still saying beat the crap out of the guys that attacked her. But it makes me wonder about the state of the demon's territory. How destabilized has it become because of Fino's father being defeated? In a position of power Fino could actually do a lot of good with the lessons she's learned and mindset she has. Helping to advance her people and gain some of the positives the human world has to offer.
Of course in the end it's more about the lifestyle that will make Fino happy. Let's face it might be best for her to just stay working in that store and staying out of the spotlight .
The worst thing of course to do would be to let those so-called heroes have their way and making her to be a new target that would revitalize the hero 'career'.

Sometimes i wonder what kind of parent that fino have? If the father is every bit of demon king that they say he is...the one that like to torture, rape...yat to have a daughter that pretty much the embodiment of naivete, purity and very kind even though bit lacking in common sense, her mother mus be a saint he raped somewhere

to see who is not only me but even teh anime itself have the same opnion as me
the best moment so far of this anime and all episodes:
finally someone with common sense say the "truth who was needed to say a long time on this anime..., this proof who most of the girls have more "balls"/brains than him.
well this episode was really good if we dont look to our "awesome hero"
fino was really cute(omg why must be raul)
for me raul can ending with his tsundere ex-fight partner bunny girl aira she is perfect for him, fino is really too much good/perfect for him
now i really know why seara choose raul to live with fino, we can't find more "harmless" garbage than him in this world, give him a bright and awesome sword and you can throw him inside a big arena ful of gorgogenous/hot/sexy naked womans/girls, who "nothing gonna happen is more easy the girls kick his ass and ask for sending to them a true man.
and like others comments i also belive who the guys who attacked fino was the raul friends wanting be heroes(wtf is that who to be a "hero" you must bully a innocent girl)
and maybe if the reason who the demons want her back is exactly for this, their aware of the heroes wanting the "chaos" back and to "protect fino" their want take her back to the demon world since their dont believe in "garbage" to be able to protect her.
in the end the true villians are the "heroes"
basically this anime is to make the "laze otakus" stop wasting time in doing nothing and go "work", to show the wonderfull of "working" who you can be happy working, you dont need dream in be a hero to help the world, just work and with this you can true help the world.

One of my favorite episodes so far, the amount of development between Raul and Fino was quite high. And the best part was that is both sides felt the "chemistry" across the different scenes.
About the ending...well, I guess Fino will become Demon Lord at one point for drama's sake but I hope Raul is able to pull her back.

Like I said in the spoilers its probably demons trying to get fino to become a demon again after all nobody knows she's the demon lords daughter outside of the staff of that store and lamia even Airi doenst realize it and she's a former hero. Its the demons disguised as hero's not actual hero's

Fino was really cute in this episode, Raul keeps denying the truth ("we are not dating... Bla bla... she is not my girlfriend... bla bla bla") but something very serious happened in this 9th episode.
Any warrior desiring to become the new HERO could have atacked Fino. But most likely are really Raul's friends who atacked her. Someone posted an image here. http://i.imgur.com/KlkPTUF.jpg
Of course, they will not kill her yet because first they need her to become the new maou/demon lord.
That remember me the first episode of MAOYUU. Like Maou/Crimson scholar said, it's obvious as soon the human/devil war would end, many warriors who never learned anything useful other than how to fight would find hard to live in a pacific world. After spending so much time training their fighting skills to kill and destroy, is dificult to change priorities that much.
Raul got lucky, he found a job and discovered some apreciation for that, thanks to Fino and all his friends. But not every warrior could make it.
And one important thing we never considerated before: WHY Fino went to the human world? After losing their lord, the devils would need her more than before.
Most likely, they were forcing her to become the next demon lord and go to war with the humans again. Being the gentle and kind-hearted girl she is, Fino refused and ran away to the human world, expecting no one would recognize her or force her to become the new maou.
Now Fino and Raul need to worry about not only with Amada, but with warriors desiring to become Heroes atacking an innocent girl, too.
I was not expecting something so serious in such light-hearted anime. Let's see what happens next!

The Characters:
Simon VanHelsing - Descendent of the great vampire hunter. His proficiency leaves a lot to be desired. Somebody teach him how to reload a handgun. Please.
Professor VanBratwurst - In addition to a ridiculous accent, this man has a hatred of Count Chocula. Shot for his troubles.
Mark - His wardrobe selection consisted of two t-shirts.
Amber - The girl who was eventually everybody's girlfriend (seen a couple of those in my time). Her hair changes color and length from scene to scene.
The Zombies - They only gurgle (helpfully, their conversations are subtitled) and are vegetarians (except, they do eat brains). Dead - again.
Heinrich - The serious vampire who dresses in frilly clothes and has a vendetta to settle with mankind. Shot.
Count Chocula - He prefers chocolate over blood. A putz if there ever was one.
The Plot:
Looking at this tape, I just knew that it was trouble with a capital "T." Memories of actually eating Count Chocula cereal came flooding back. The stuff was little more than sugar (whichever "ose") and marshmallows. I have always been very, ah, energetic. Eating Count Chocula could be compared to throwing gasoline on an already raging fire. Needless to say, my mother went gray early in life.
What I am trying to say is: sorry mom, it was the cereal.
I should mention that the tape began with a short about a violent census worker (he used to be a cop) who kills everyone in his region. Why? He was too lazy to count the people. Shooting them means that the count is zero.
Though, the real subject is "The Curse of Count Chocula." It begins with Mark and Amber entering a graveyard to make out. The girl panics when a twig snaps, then a small group of zombies shamble out of the trees. The pair flee to a nearby house, which is the residence of VanBratwurst. Knowing that the only safe place is the basement, the professor leads the frightened couple downstairs and tells them the story of Count Chocula.
Count Chocula was the son of Count Dracula. As a vampire, the effeminate chocoholic was a complete failure. Now, and keep up with me here, Dracula was killed by Richter VanHelsing after a battle befitting the "Highlander" franchise (right down to the vampire hunter using a katana). The Count's death left Chocula pretty much indifferent, but Heinrich burns for revenge on humanity.
With the flashback over, the three set out to find one of VanHelsing's descendants. They find him by looking in the phone book. Simon is not exactly what you would call a first round draft pick. In fact, Simon is a dope. Here we have scenes of the accidental vampire hunter in training with his katana. The sad thing is that I recognized that katana. My mother, knowing that I like archaic weapons, gave me one just like it - plastic dragon head handle and all. Mom means well.
If you are ever looking for a sword or axe that you could actually sharpen and use to fight undead, vampires, or an annoying neighbor, I suggest
Starfire Swords.
I own a number of their pieces and have given a number as gifts. It should be mentioned that Zak discourages sharpening the weapons. In fact, it voids the warranty.
The plots slows to a crawl at this point. The vampire lords while away the time looking for the Necronomicon (to use its spells). The human contingent mostly just sits around Simon's house. Mark complains about the wait and repeatedly asks VanBratwurst to give him a ride home. Amber is perfectly happy with the situation, because she is tearing up the couch with the professor.
Around now I stopped the movie and went to brush my teeth. Do not know why. All the chocolate references making me think about dental health? Feeling unclean of mind and tooth?
Bored out of my freaking skull?
The zombies are a constant source of humor during the movie. Mostly they sit around, bitching about their lot in unlife. However, pretty soon Simon decides to try out his evil fighting abilities. This involves pulling out two pistols and shooting at the zombies. Every time VanHelsing attacks, guns blazing, the long-suffering zombies stumble away. I actually started laughing at this frequent event.
Somewhere in here, the saviours of humanity win the Necronomicon off of Ebay. After that, there is more of "hanging out at VanHelsing's house" for everybody. Ahhhhhh! I am in Hell! And, in Hell, nothing happens!
Heinrich finally gives up on the plot moving forward on its own and attacks. The vampire kick's Simon's behind (but does not kill him - odd) before instructing the zombies to search the house for the Necronomicon. They respond by bringing him one random book, a toaster, and a cat. Finally, one of the walking corpses finds the paperback version (not the correct book) of the Necronomicon. The vampire assault force leaves, taking VanBratwurst and Amber with them. The girl comes along of her own free will. Amber has a strong goth streak in her; she thinks that vampires are cool.
The bloodsuckers supposedly need the Necronomicon so they can cast a spell. The spell will remove the normal restrictions of vampirism: avoiding sunlight, drinking blood, etc. I would like to point out that we have seen them standing around in broad daylight several times. I would also like to point out Simon's plan to steal the book back (he is so dumb that he does not know the vampires took the wrong book). It involves playing some techno music, thus inspiring the vampires to dance, and then snatching the Necronomicon. Yes, Heinrich and Amber start dancing. The dancing lasts for
three damn minutes!
It is
not pleasant to watch.
I have seen people
beaten for dancing that bad.
To know how the mess ends, you will have to watch it yourself.
I have a feeling that this movie was either a college project or just a group of friends who decided to get together and make a silly movie. In that light, it is probably better than most. In fact, the whole subplot with the zombies could have made for a good film (possibly full length) itself.
Things I Learned From This Movie:
Girls like to make out in graveyards, but are guaranteed to get spooked.
Zombies wear a lot of plaid.
Communists like butterscotch on their ice cream.
Handguns are not sold in variety packs.
Bookstores require you to check your firearms at the door.
Tomes of ancient magic are often listed on Ebay.
The last thing that you want to be doing, as zombies invade your kitchen, is struggling with a trigger lock.
You do not need a bowl to eat cereal.
Stuff To Watch For:
6 mins - Is this the soundtrack from "Conan" or "Excaliber?"
15 mins - VanHelsing should have paid more attention to who he was impaling.
21 mins - Again with the "Necronomicon" in a movie; Lovecraft would be proud.
34 mins - I am getting tired of big butts in my face! Clear camera!
50 mins - Four zombies sitting on a park bench, discussing Martin Luther King.
is happening. Arrgghhhh!
65 mins - A mudpack?
72 mins - What self respecting bachelor would have shelf paper with a decorative border?
83 mins - Tedium: (n) The quality or condition of being tedious; tediousness or boredom.
105 mins - In the name of all backyard film projects, how long is this cursed movie?

Starving actors speak out
VanBratwurst: "Chocula is a monster. His thirst for chocolate is insatiable. He will roam the entire Earth and, if his evil scheme is carried out, there will be no chocolate for anybody."
Chocula: "That's another thing, I don't really like the taste of blood that much. I prefer the sweet, tempting taste of chocolate"
Heinrich: "What are you talking about? You are a vampire. That means drinking blood to survive and that means killing human beings, so get with the program!"
Mark: "You just told me a little while ago that you wanted to be like Buffy."
Simon: "Yeah, but I didn't know she was a vampire hunter. I just want to be Sarah Michelle Gellar. If I was, I would do nothing but take showers all day long."
Amber: "Are you Count Chocula?"
Heinrich: "Well, no."
Amber: "But you are a vampire, right?"
Heinrich: "Yes."
Amber: "That is so cool! Can I come back to your castle with you?"

The zombies are sitting on the bench, mostly minding their own business. Simon pulls out two tiny revolvers and starts shooting. The zombies shamble away. This happens, more or less, about five times during the movie.

You can get a copy of the necronomicon on ebaY! Right now there is one going for about $90.00...
Who knew the Curse of Count Chocula could be so accurate...

I wouldn't call it ripping off the Castlevania games. More of an homage to them. I'm glad somebody noticed.
As for who had the idea, it actually originated with a sketch on The Man Show. They were doing a skit about movies that no guy would ever want to see. One of them was Count Chocula: The Movie starring Forest Whittacker as the count.
When I heard that, I was rather shocked. I thought a count chocula movie with Forest Whitacker sounded awesome, and set out to prove that people would indeed want to see a count chocula movie. And thus, history was made.

I have to say, even with Andrew's mostly negative review, for some reason I want to see this film more than any other film reviewed on this website... that line about Sarah Michelle Gellar I thought was hilarious, and the description of the film itself makes it sound rather entertaining!

Well, what with being involved in this film, it is impossible for me to give my own review without being incredibly biased. Suffice it to say, it is indeed a "backyard" film, but I've heard rumor that the film has now become a drinking game on college campuses across the country (somewhat of a compliment, even given the fact that college kids will drink for anything). In order to play, you can do one of three things: 1.) Everytime you spot a continuity error, take a drink [recommended for severe alcoholics]. For example, the aforementioned hair changes on Amber, Heinrich's beard/no beard, etc. 2.) Everytime you spot a specific product placement, take a drink [recommended for moderate alcoholics]. For example, there are many shots of Pepsi bottles always with the label facing directly at the camera. Believe it or not, the product placement was entirely unintentional - we just really liked Pepsi. 3.) Everytime the character of Mark puts his hands to his head as if he has a headache or is completely fed up with the plot, take a drink. [recommended for lightweights who like to sip] I don't know why, but this character did this alot throughout the film and it was only after the second viewing that we noticed the character of Mark must be close to an aneurysm. Anyways, that's my complete nonsense of a contribution to the message boards of this film and I take my leave now (ridiculous accent and all), but not before a few comments more.
All in all, I had a good time shooting the film and it was quite an experience. Keep in mind this was the first time making a film for all involved (I'll readily admit that it's quite apparent), but it was a heartfelt effort from cast and crew alike. In addition to playing VonBratwurst and Zombie #3, I also tried my hand at putting the soundtrack together for the film. If I may indulge in my own little shilling here, copies of the soundtrack are available through myself. Send an email to
if you have any interest. Take care and thanks for watching the film (even if it is just to get drunk). Cheers!

Well, I know it's no gem, but everyone who was involved in the movie had a great time and I think most of us are even...dare I say... proud of the final product. I did a lot of the production work and played Count Chocula as well as one of the zombies (sorry about my dancing everyone, not one of my hobbies). Anyway, it was definatly a "backyard film", and our first swing at it at that. To anyone who bothers watching it, thank you, and I hope you enjoy it. The sound isn't the best it a lot of places, but there is a lot of funny dialouge in there if you give it a chance.

I am dating the man who plays Count Chocula. I have to say that despite the fact that this movie was clearly not a Blockbuster, I have to admit that I was a little sad that no one asked me to be in this movie. Sure, I was away at school for most of the filming( I think it actually started filming my Freshman year and wrapped up my Senior year. Hence Ambers hair style changes), but I think a part could have been created for me. Who do you have to sleep with to get a part in a Green Pastures production?!?!?
Anyway, I grew up with most of these boys, and I am darn proud of all of them! Good Job! I love you guys!

After 6 months of therapy, the firing of 2 agents, and 3 suicide attempts I've finally come to grips with being in this movie. I'm baffled however. I think its absolutely absurd that someone actually watched this to review it. As if it has any value!
But it was a really fun time for all of us involved. We all really love movies and blah, blah, blah. Enter some more sentimental, obligitory bulls**t about how wonderful it was here...
Yes, my hair changed. It was 3 years later. A painful learning process? Yes. Next time, get a wig!

I just saw that all of my buddies wrote in and said some s**t. Me being the only actual actor of the film, I can't wait to hear about that remark, I've come to find myself able to withstand any and all negative reveiws of the curse. As it's known as. Not really. I totally just made that up.
Anywho, I loved making this movie. We had Mel (Amber) constantly complaining because she almost died from a misquito attack, actually happened during the cemetary scene. We had constant laughter at Mark (Chocula himself) who was playing a not-so-straight vampire. And finally we had the awesome, radical, super studly Trevor Massatt on the set at all times, even if I wasn't in the scene. Because we had fun doing this.
I hope people enjoyed this film. I did and still do. Also be ready for green pastures production of "Shredded Wheat" PLUG, PLUG, PLUG. Should be finished when hell freezes over.
Now I have to go beat the s**t out of all my "friends" QUOTATIONS! that decided to visit this gnarley page and not tell me you could write stuff. Which they all did. Don't worry though, guys and gals, they'll get theirs. Oh, yes. They'll get theirs. Mwa ha ha ha...
If you've read this far, you are one in a million. Which is pretty much everyone really. We're all unique in are own individual ways. Like how I'm so kickass. Wait is that one word or two? A true kick ass doesn't care how he spells things. Weren't we talking about a movie or something? See you from the screen.

LOS ANGELES >> No residential burning permits will be issued in Los Angeles County wildland areas starting July 1 and until further notice, the Los Angeles County fire chief said Friday.
"We are issuing this ban to take every step possible to prevent wildfires from starting in Los Angeles County," Fire Chief Daryl Osby said.
"Their potential to destroy life and property in our county is significant," Osby said. "We have already had several fires this year and it is only the beginning of summer."
Osby's decision to declare a ban on residential burning permits in county wildland areas supports the governor's Drought State of Emergency declaration, which directed Cal Fire to act to protect public safety during times of elevated fire risk, county fire officials said.
The ban suspends all residential burning permits within State Responsibility Areas under contract to Cal Fire in Los Angeles County and any previously issued permits will no longer be valid, officials said.
The ban will continue until formally cancelled by the county fire department, fire officials said.
Campfires on organized campgrounds or on private property otherwise permitted will still be allowed if maintained in a way that prevents the fire's spread to wildland, officials said.

Long ago, taste and feel of a homemade oatmeal cookie is a very gratifying indulgence. Today, with the so many dessert recipes in thousands of cookbooks everywhere, traditional cookie recipes are every so often set aside.
The way things have change decades after decades also brought dramatic transformation to our old favorite cookies. But how come traditional cookie recipes continued to survive in the ocean of new delectable modern delights? How come traditional mounds of sugary, peanut buttery, chocolatey goodness are still very addicting? There must be something about traditional cookie recipes that makes it so much loved.
Despite the fact that oatmeal cookies are not much considered a favorite these times, old cookie recipes are still among the best, and the reason why? Traditional cookie recipes carry the emblem of the memorable delicious taste and spirit of long ago. Therefore it is proven that sometimes traditions are best! Even the kids today will want to get savvy to make a treat of this wonderful historical taste in their cookie.
If you look around, we are still so used to hearing about the old classic cookie recipes. Pillsbury bake-offs have been existing for over 50 years. Even with the popularity of Splenda today, a lot of people still use the classic brown sugar and wheat pastry flour in place of modern enriched flour. It's also awesome that oatmeal is still remembered a great substitute to contemporary dried ingredients. I feel nostalgic that even though I style my mother's traditional oatmeal recipe into modern dreidels, I still feel close to her arms it's like making the whole thing more delicious.
In my opinion, traditional cookie recipes personify the taste of the old fashioned. The fork pressed edges, the so indulging filling that ranges from raisins to farm-fresh jam, all things carefully made by hand, slower but sure-paced and apron-clad homemakers along with the country smell of fresh-from-the-oven cookies. All these are the extraordinary spices added to traditional cookie dough making the whole wonderful difference.
My best friend bought me old-fashioned chocolate cookies from the oldest bakery in Chicago, once and I swear they brought me back to my childhood! One of the best feelings I've ever had. As soon as I took my first bite of these I immediately thought that they have the taste that I love so much. After thinking that perhaps the ingredients are very similar – butter, sugar and cocoa, I have no idea what makes the cookie so delicious. For some reason I am determined it's the spirit of the cookie's origin being delivered by horse and wagon in 1905, the year my grandfather was born.
If you are like me, you know why traditional cookie recipes are as delicious as they sound. They are a great thing to make with kids today if you have any little hands eager to help in making them. They will enjoy your cookie childhood stories along with eating the dough straight from the bowl! Truly tradition makes a difference.
Do you have a very old cookie recipe that you'd like to share? The world would love it.

Our much anticipated gear review has finally arrived! If you are actively planning a tour, or just thinking about "one day," check out this review to get your own wheels turning. Selecting gear for a large tour can be overwhelming, so just start out by gathering as much information as possible. We agonized over our decisions, but with a lot of research and conversations with others we were able to find excellent gear that fit our needs and desires. In the end, selecting good quality gear paid off because we had very few problems along the way. Sources of good information include blogs, bike catalogs, online reviews, and your local bike shop. If you are hoping to accomplish your tour on a small budget, we recommend talking to your local shop to see if you can work out a special deal. If you buy your bike at full price, shops may agree to give you a discounted rate on accessories (panniers, racks, etc.). Of course, riding for a cause may increase your chances of getting the local shop excited about your trip and on board with a discount. In addition, if you have any questions about our journey, or the gear we used, please feel free to email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Thanks for reading and happy trails!
-Katie, Kerstin, and Lauren
Katie: Surly Longhaul Trucker
This bike is one of the most popular touring bikes available due to its solid components. It has a steel frame and all necessary braze-ons for attaching racks. The tires are of exceptional quality and mine were still in moderate condition after the conclusion of the trip. The bar end shifters were easy to use. In addition, my chain and cassette lasted the duration of the trip, though they started to skip a bit after about 3,500 miles.
I recommend switching out the seat for a model with more cushioning- if you keep the original seat you will have saddle sores within twenty miles. In addition, the wires used in shifting tend to stretch out overtime, throwing off the shifting. Thus, it is important to learn how to adjust the shifting before starting your tour- a fairly simple process. Also, because my bike was of a smaller size, it had smaller wheels (26 in) vs. the 700 c wheels most common in touring and road bikes. When riding with a group, I would recommend that all members have the same size wheels in order to be more in sync initially.
Lauren: Bianchi Axis
The Bianchi Axis is specifically a cyclocross bike, but I was able to convert it easily into more of a touring style bike. To do so, I replaced the carbon-fiber fork with a Surly steel fork in order to take the weight of a loaded front rack. This simple switch has allowed me to convert my bike to and from an aerodynamic road bike to a reliable touring vehicle.
My favorite feature on my bicycle is a feature that is adaptable to many bikes, which is the second set of brakes on the tops of the handle bars. These brakes are ideal for city riding or for posture relief while riding long distances.
The Axis was extremely light-weight and reliable. Despite only having two chain-rings on the front cassette, which was a bit challenging on hills at first, the shifting was smooth without any cable stretching for the entire trip.
Kerstin: KHS TR-101
This is a steel frame bike designed to be loaded for touring. Even though KHS isn't as much on the radar for touring, this proved to be a solid bike. The brakes and shifting were flawless throughout the trip. The chain definitely stretched out by about 2,500 miles, but I'm not sure how much that had to do with my riding style versus the quality of the chain. The tires also did not make it the whole way- I replaced the front at about 2,500 and the back at about 3,500 miles. The fenders that came with it worked fine, although a bit flimsy. The seat was great, I would suggest leaving it. The rear rack that came attached was solid. I really liked the bar-end shifters and the wide range of gears.
Katie: I liked that these were waterproof and had two big pockets inside. Easy to attach to the bike. Moderately expensive.
Lauren: The waterproof feature was nice, however that does not keep your belongings from getting damp. Extremely durable with convenient pockets inside. The color and reflective patches were also beneficial.
Kerstin: I liked that these were waterproof- I never felt like I had to worry about my belongings in these. I also appreciated the adjustable straps, which we often ended up lengthening to carry around as a shoulder bag when we spent time in a town.
Katie: I wish these had been waterproof, but otherwise loved the simple design. They had a nice zip pocket on the top that made the storage of small items easy and accessible. Easy to attach to the bike. Low price.
Lauren: These provided ample space and convenient outside pockets, however the non-waterproof fabric required an additional purchase of dry sacks. Small holes appeared in the bottoms after extended use and the color was not optimal.
Kerstin: With plastic bags or dry sacks, these were great. The little pocket on top and on the side were great to keep things like chapstick or chain lube in. These are also not as flashy as other panniers, which was nice.
Katie: We used the pocket rocket about 2-3 times per week to cook hot meals. I loved how small the stove was and how easy it is to use- you just have to turn a switch rather than pumping fuel (as with the also popular MSR Whisperlite stove). A major downside, however, are the disposable canisters required to use the stove. They are difficult to recycle and I would have preferred having one refillable canister.
Kerstin: This was perfect for our purposes. It's easier to use and super lightweight. The disposable canisters are a negative, but I believe we only used 2 during the entire 3-month trip.
Topeak has some great pumps!

Katie: This tent was wonderful. It provided just enough room to sleep three women comfortably and we were able to fit all of our panniers in the vestibules. On nights that there was not a cloud in the sky we could take off the rain-fly to let the breeze in while escaping from mosquitoes.
Kerstin: I love this tent. It was super easy to put up and take down. It was tight for three women width-wise, so I would not recommend it for anyone wanting a couple inches to themselves. Lengthwise it was perfect- we always had space to store valuables, water, and a book at our feet. The two doors were wonderful for better access, as were the two relatively spacious vestibules where we kept our panniers at night. This tent was very weather-proof, except the included footprint often allowed some dampness through the tent floor. The only major downside is the very bright (though gorgeous!) orange color, which made stealth camping a bit more difficult.
For long hot summer days when two water bottles just isn't going to cut it. Usually you can fill up on water at gas stations and church faucets, but there were definitely some stretches during our trip where water sources were few and far-between. We took two of these bladders.
One jersey, one wicking tank-top, one wicking short-sleeve, one cotton t-shirt, one long-sleeve spandex top, one fleece, rain gear, spandex leggings, two pairs of bike shorts, atheletic shorts, reflective vest, 1 pair wool socks, 3 pair cotton socks, warm hat, cycling gloves, fleece gloves, flip flops
We used tail lights while riding early in the morning and at dusk. This will greatly improve your visibility to drivers and should be a part of your gear for any bike tour! Paired with a reflective vest you will be equipped to hit the road. We used lights from Planet Bike, which were easy to clip onto our panniers and had a long battery life.

This week, my daughter and some 126 classmates will graduate from Middlebury Union High School. It is a moment of transition, coming of age, leaving the world of childhood, stepping into the responsibilities and challenges of adult life. Parents, families, community members will celebrate the achievement, as we should. I hope we will also take a moment to thank and celebrate the people who made this achievement possible.

|Attention: DocWiki has reached EOL and will be decommissioned January 25, 2019.
Graceful shutdown does not work when Call Server is in partial service
From DocWiki
|Problem Summary
|Graceful shutdown does not work when Call Server is in partial service.
|Error Message
|In OAMP Call Server status shows as "UP" when actual Call server state is "Stopped".
|Call Server goes to partial state when PIM goes down. When a graceful shutdown is performed in the partial state the above error message appears.
|Possible Cause
|When a graceful shutdown is performed on a Call Server in partial state, it cannot perform the usual task of shutting down PIM and other services as it is already down and it goes to stopped state. However, call server windows service still shows running.
|Recommended Action
|When the Call Server is in partial service, administrator should always do a normal shutdown instead of graceful shutdown.

Sol 38 (Sept. 13, 2012) was destined to be a driving day for NASA's latest edition to the Martian landscape. Curiosity perambulated over 105 feet (32 meters) of unpaved Gale Crater during yesterday's drive. The rover's odometer now clocks in at 466 feet (142 meters) covered since the landing on Aug. 5.
The sol's activities also included pre- and post-drive imaging of the road ahead by both Mastcam and Hazcam, and science measurements from the DAN and REMS instruments.
The Sol 38 Navcam image of the surface in front of the rover can be found at: (raw image at:http://1.usa.gov/QLCB15 ).
In addition, Curiosity's science instruments performed observations and measurements, including Mastcam observations of the Martian moon Phobos passing in front of the sun.
Curiosity continues to work in good health. Sol 38, in Mars local mean solar time at Gale Crater, ended at 8:34 a.m. on Sept. 14, PDT.

Josh Thompson Parts Ways With Sony Music Nashville's RCA Records
After a years on the RCA Records branch of Sony Music Nashville, Josh Thompson is going his own way. The singer was originally signed to the Columbia imprint and released his debut Top 10 album 'Way Out Here' in 2010. The album produced three Top 30 singles, including the title track that peaked at No. 15, as well as 'Beer on the Table' (No. 17) and 'Won't Be Lonely Long' (No. 25).
After the label experienced some changes, Thompson was bumped over to the RCA Records side of things, where he had been gearing up for the release of his highly-anticipated sophomore album, 'Change.' The album's lead single, 'Comin' Around,' had been a Top 30 hit for the singer in recent weeks, just before the plug was pulled on it at radio, leading up to the news of him leaving the label roster.
More details about Thompson's departure are still forthcoming. Earlier this month, Kellie Pickler too announced her split from Sony Nashville.

The North Central College football team beat the Carthage College Red Men at their own game on Saturday, combining opportunistic offense with dominant defense in a 24-0 victory that put a damper on the Carthage Homecoming festivities.
Facing a run-heavy Carthage running attack which was bent on keeping the ball out of the ninth-ranked Cardinals' hands, North Central ran just 44 plays, 19 fewer than the hosts, and faced more than an 11-minute disadvantage in time of possession. The visitors' defense, however, kept the Red Men from mounting any kind of scoring threat as it posted its first shutout since a 58-0 victory over Millikin University in 2009.
North Central's first scoring drive began on the Carthage 33-yard line, after an errant Red Men punt netted just one yard. Jordan Tassio ran 19 yards to move the Cardinals into the red zone, and Nick Kukuc ran for the score on the next play to break the ice. North Central forced punts on the next three possessions and took over at its own 20 following a touchback with 5:18 left in the first half. Tassio took off on a run up the middle and made it all the way to the goal line on the next play from scrimmage, doubling the guests' lead with an 80-yard touchdown run. Tassio's score matches the third-longest running play in school history.
Late in the third period, the Red Men (3-1, 0-1 College Conference of Illinois & Wisconsin) attempted a fourth-down conversion at the North Central 32, but Willie Hayes and Joey Michals sacked Carthage quarterback Pete Djurickovic for an eight-yard loss. Backup quarterback Tyler Dicken entered the game for the Cardinals and jumpstarted the following drive with a 33-yard pass to Kyle Fiedorowicz, and North Central wound up getting a 23-yard field goal from Nick Dace with 12:19 to play in the game.
North Central's final score was set up by its special teams. Carthage prepared to punt deep in its own territory, but Alex Tripp broke through the line and blocked the kick. Kane Thompson scooped up the ball and ran five yards for the touchdown, securing the game's final score with 10:02 to play.
Tassio finished the game with a career-high 140 yards on 13 carries, while Kukuc gained 80 yards on nine attempts. The Cardinals outgained Carthage, 287-208, despite the difference in possession time, and averaged 6.5 yards per play, nearly twice that of the Red Men.
Michals was North Central's top tackler with eight total stops, while Hayes, Valente Garza and Shane Dierking each had seven tackles. Hayes finished with two tackles for loss and 1 1/2 quarterback sacks, while Scott Skuteris recorded a sack and intercepted a pass.
Now winners of three straight games and 10 straight CCIW contests, the Cardinals (3-1, 1-0 CCIW) return home to host Augustana College at 7 p.m. on Saturday.
North Central Blanks Carthage, 24-0
|No. 6 North Central (Ill.) (3-1)
|Carthage (3-1)
The North Central College football team beat the Carthage College Red Men at their own game on Saturday, combining opportunistic offense with dominant defense in a 24-0 victory that put a damper on the Carthage Homecoming festivities.

Liked the acting, (the advertising guy mumbled wayyyy too much at first)... but really how could the cop hit the advertising guy and throw him out the window and likely break the secretary's nose and basically only get fired?!?!?! He didn't like the billboards but he took it wayyy to the extreme. Hated the ending. Yes they might kill a POSSIBLE rapist who they both were unaware visited the mother in her store and oddly threw a $7 item and smashed it as well as admitting to raping a girl while an x-cop was in the booth (who you could totally see sitting there!..FYI any cop will tell you they will sit facing the door so they can see who comes and goes), they were likely going to kill the possible rapist killer. I didn't mind it, the acting was good but the story had too many holes and conveniences.
A good story and acting but downgraded it due to far too much crude language and sexual references . Though expected of such characters in this film, could have been toned down somewhat.
The acting was excellent! The movie was so engrossing...very dark at times but then we found ourselves laughing at times also... dark humor?
It is such a powerful story about how sorrow, hatred, anger, and revenge can consume you.
Frances McDormand's fantastic performance is worth the price of admission. The accolades and awards are well deserved.
The movie is a logical mess, becoming increasingly unbelievable with every passing minute. The events are contrived. The writing becomes increasingly desperate. I wish that the movie had had respect for our intelligence.
The movie wastes fine actors like Frances McDormand, Sam Rockwell, Lucas Hedges, Zeljko Ivanek, & Peter Dinklage.
Overrated; a B movie at best. The only interesting character was Sam Rockwell's.
I wasn't planning to see a movie about billboards but we ended up going. It was exceptional. Fabulous actors and the story pulls you into this wacky dysfunctional town.
Didn't need the foul language to that extent but the acting was supurb.
The premise was a good one but there were too many unrealistic characters and unrealistic scenes to support the storyline. It bordered on outrageous at times. I mean, really......billboards are on fire and that measly extinguisher put out the fire??!! Ridiculous!
Great movie!,, one of the best I have seen in awhile!,, entertaining !,,

Hailed as the inventor of the modern longboard, Bill Stewart's created the one-of-a-kind Night Stalker, which has headlights and LED-embedded side fins making it safe for night-surfing. Just imagine what a shark in headlights looks like, though. Shudder.
On the 14th of August, the board will be auctioned off as part of Billabong's Art of Shaping charity 'do, with the money being sent off to the SIMA Humanitarian fund. One lucky person will be surfing the S-wing design board, which has two rechargeable batteries that power the 700lumen headlights (adjustable!). The side fins house LEDs, for casting spooky shapes across the waves.
If the winning bidder just keeps this Night Stalker in their pool room, I'm going to be very disappointed. [Bill Stewart via The Scuttlefish]

Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini hit out at the "incredible" decision to send off midfielder Samir Nasri in the thrilling 4-3 Barclays Premier League win at Norwich.
After Edin Dzeko notched a brace inside four minutes, Norwich reduced the deficit through Anthony Pilkington's deflected free-kick, before Nasri was shown a red card by referee Mike Jones on 44 minutes for putting his head into the face of Sebastien Bassong.
Although the decision did not eventually cost City as Sergio Aguero and an own-goal from Norwich keeper Mark Bunn eventually saw off the spirited Canaries, the Italian was left less than impressed by the whole incident, saying it was "not a good decision".

TOKYO (AP) The marathon pitching exploits of Japan's high school baseball players may soon be a thing of the past.
Japan's High School Baseball Federation is considering introducing measures such as a tiebreaker and pitch counts limits in order to protect the health of the country's future stars.
New York Yankees right-hander Masahiro Tanaka, who was recently placed on the 15-day disabled list with a partially torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow, was a standout in Japanese high school baseball. He led his high school team to a championship in 2005.
New York Mets pitcher Daisuke Matsuzaka, who had elbow surgery in 2011, gained notoriety for throwing 250 pitches in 17 innings at the summer high school tournament in 1988 after a 148-pitch complete-game shutout the previous day.

Pork Adobada (in the slow cooker)
3 lbs pork loin
1 medium onion, chopped
5 garlic cloves, chopped
6 Anaheim dried red chilies, seeded (reserve seeds)
4 pasilla chilies, seeded (reserve seeds)
1½ cup chicken stock (more if needed)
1/2 cup cider vinegar
4 tablespoons bitter orange
4 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 tablespoon flour
salt and pepper, to taste
Place the dried chiles in a food processor or blender. In a medium pot, bring chicken stock to a boil. Add the cider vinegar and stir. Pour into food processor.
Allow to soak for about 10 minutes, then add orange juice concentrate, tomato paste and brown sugar. Pulse into a smooth paste, then add 1 tablespoon of the chile seeds and blend until smooth. Add more broth if paste is too think to pour. In a large sauce pan, heat the oil. Then add the onions and garlic and sauté until onions begin to brown. Pour into slow cooker. Rub salt and pepper all over roast and then coat with flour. Using the same saucepan as the onions, add pork loin and brown evenly, rotating the meat occasionally. Once browned, add to slow cooker. Then, pour 1/2 cup water into skillet, bring to a boil and scrape up browned bits.
Pour into the slow cooker along with the chile sauce, stirring well. Cover and cook on low for 5 to 6 hours. Pull apart with fork before serving.
My thoughts:
We used this to make truly awesome burritos with cilantro-lime rice, black beans, salsa, sharp cheddar and sour cream. We actually made it on a Saturday, each had a burrito then invited friends over Monday (4 more burritos eaten) and we still had plenty to freeze for a later date.

Sounds like my kind of Mex food.ReplyDelete
Is the pork loin boneless or bone-in? Usually I find with long, slow cooking a bonless shoulder (Butt) stays moist and shreads easily, but the loin tends to dry out and not shread. Lots more fat in the Shoulder of course.
I've never seen bone-in pork loin before.
Oh I am definitely trying this!ReplyDelete

By 5 p.m. today, less than 48 hours after announcing her race for the Pinellas County District 13 congressional seat, Alex Sink had already raised more than $116,000 for a campaign political experts say will run into the millions.
The Web site for ActBlue, an online fundraising tool for Democratic candidates, is reporting that 1,088 donors have given $116,762 to the campaign for Sink, the best known contender in what many say will be one of the most competitive congressional races in the country.
Sink is running for the seat left vacant when 43-year veteran Congressman C. W. Bill Young, a Republican from Indian Shores, died earlier this month. Days prior to his death, he had announced he was retiring at the end of his term in 2014, setting off extensive speculation as to who would run for his seat.
Democrats hoping switching the seat from Republican to Demcoratic will help them win back a majority in Congress.
Republicans are still waiting to find out who their candidates will be. Currently, Sink's only competition is another Democrat, Jessica Ehrlich, who ran against Young in 2012 and started her campaign months before Young passed away.� Last quarter, Ehrlich raised about $109,000. The Democratic establishment embraced Sink before she even announced her campaign.
The special election to fill Young's seat for the remainder of his term will have a primary on January 14 of and a general election on March 11, 2014.

That's being a bit harsh and doesn't really reflect what Taniguchi has said about the character. He did enjoy being around his friends and at his heart is a kind person. The first episode didn't reflect anything that wasn't already there. He dislikes Britannia and what it stands for, that's all.

^Again I never said he doesn't care for his friends, but he seemed very aloof to me in many interactions with them in r1...ONLY NOW (as of ep R2-7) is he showing a deep caring for them that isn't some dark-fuel he uses to power Zero...I too think he's prolly more good-hearted than I'm giving him credit, but he has shown some moral indifference that doesn't support the claim of his kind-heartedness...I mean Light was somewhat kind too before he got the note...Lulu let his caring for his friends and sis manifest into a monster...Again, only now is he really showing non-impulsive reflections on what they mean to him...

Well, for the record, Lelouch is nothing like Light in truth.
I'd agree that he is being a bit more honest about things like this now and isn't being so crazy anymore after the little stint in 7.
Enough about Lelouch though, this is the Suzaku thread.

That depends on how you choose to attack that analysis, which I think I 'm pretty good at doing, but I will digress...I'm just saying power corrupts...Nice guys on the outside show their true colors when corrupted with power...I now suspect Suzaku will go down a darker path now to balance the scales a bit while Lulu moves back to the center from his last episode deep-end...

Well, this season they plan on making Lelouch more likable and perhaps more of a hero than he seemed before. I don't know about Suzaku though. He could go either way depending on things. I haven't been getting any really hateful vibes off him, though that may sound strange.

That's because there isn't. Suzaku is being very professional about the whole thing. The idea that he has uncontrolable hatred at Lelouch for killing Euphie and wouldn't be able to sit in the same room as him without trying to stab him although expected, didn't happen. Suzaku's yet to mention anger about Euphie at all this season. Same with Lelouch. He's not really as pissed about his capture as he could have been. (Possibly because he knows he hurt Suzaku much more than Suzaku hurt him)

After all he just got the geass, it probably auto activated bring to life his thoughts at that time - after see the soldiers commit genicide at random & the situation he was in, he wishing they would shoot themselves isn't out of the ordinary.
Although through out the 1st season, he might have taken the geass a little too lightly, as pointed out by C.C, hence him geassing people when he feels it's convenient.
But for the sake of his sister and to find the truth behind his mother assassination. He made the decision to become the devil himself, and to in his words "walk the road of destruction".

Clearly the staff felt like ep 7 was the perfect chance to take him out of the anti-villain mode and turn him into an anti-hero...I expect Suzaku to have a similiar effect just like Lulu, only it will be visa versa...

-After watching all the episodes currently available within the last 2 days (hoorah for lack of sleep) I got to say that I am not impressed with Suzaku at the moment. On the one hand he is certainly in love with an admirable idea but at the same time his methods are not at all compatible with that idea. He claimed recently that he wants to become a "Knight of 1" so that he can gain control of Area 11 and therefore, in his opinion, freedom for the Japanese. However there is a slight problem with that. No matter how high his rank as a soldier grows he will always be bound to Britania. Becoming Area 11's ruler will not change anything for the Japanese outside of receiving a new face for their government. At it's core Japan would still be under Britanian rule since their ruler is already a Britanian servant. And let's not rule out the possibility that if Britania decided to wage war on another country they can very easily demand that Suzaku send his people to fight someone else's battles (kind of like how several countries were pulled into WWI due to political/diplomatic reasons). In conclusion, Suzaku's goal is admirable albeit very long and strenuous and might be even doomed to failure considering the current emperor of Britania.

The best stories with friends becoming enemies have the two friends being together for a long time with great camaraderie. Through these interactions, you can see a rivalry brewing and even jealousy spring up, where one overshadows the other or their relationship tips the other way and the other starts to hate that fact.
We know that Suzaku and Lelouch were friends a long time ago, but you don't really see much of that time. Right from the get go in the earliest episodes, you know that the two will be opposing each other from the start. Lelouch was already becoming Zero from the first episode, and Suzaku was already piloting the Lancelot.
It would have been really nice if the story had the two together from the beginning, and show the cracks starting to form within their friendship, and then finally splinter.

...uh, but there weren't any cracks within their friendship. Lelouch and Suzaku started out hating each other, so the only way to go was up. The only got one summer together anyway.
Besides, there's isn't really a basis for jealousy or 'overshadowing' between them anyway. To compare Lelouch and Suzaku in tactical ability, or Suzaku and Lelouch in physical ability, would be ridiculous, and they both knew this from the start. There's friendly teasing on that basis from both fronts, but in fact the extreme seperation in their abilities actually enhances their bond, to the point where they both believe "We can achieve anything together". Add that to the fact that Lelouch and Suzaku have the same goals (happiness, a kind world), and you end up with what should have been an unbreakable bond.

And it's not like it's certain the Emperor is a bad guy anyways. Everything he's done has been to 'destroy the gods', he's been pretty reasonable (if not kind) otherwise, and until we find out what that means him being a hero is still just as likely as him being a villain.
Fukitsu Naruto, you mentioned in the other thread that Lelouch knows what kind of man he's dealing with, knows what kind of man is ruling Britannia but as far as I'm concerned Suzaku might actually have seen the bigger picture. Lelouch is obviously biased against his father for not caring about his perfect, innocent mother and still believes the Emperor is motivated purely by the Darwinist views he's espoused. Suzaku, on the other hand, knows the world isn't a happy place and has been shown the Emperor's true plans. The Emperor might not be a bad guy, and Suzaku knows that better than Lelouch.

What is tuberculosis?
Tuberculosis (TB) is a chronic bacterial infection that usually infects the lungs, although other organs are sometimes involved. TB is primarily an airborne disease.
There is a difference between being infected with the TB bacterium and having active tuberculosis disease.
There are 3 important ways to describe the stages of TB. They are as follows:
- Exposure: This occurs when a person has been in contact, or exposed to, another person who is thought to have or does have TB. The exposed person will have a negative skin test, and normal chest x-ray, and no signs or symptoms of the disease.
- TB infection: This occurs when a person has the TB bacteria in his/her body, but does not have symptoms of the disease. This person would have a positive skin test, but a normal chest x-ray.
- TB disease: This describes the person that has signs and symptoms of an active infection. The person would have a positive skin test and a positive chest x-ray.
The predominant TB bacterium is Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis). Most people infected with M. tuberculosis never develop active TB. However, in people with weakened immune systems, especially those with HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), TB organisms can overcome the body's defenses, multiply, and cause an active disease.
Who is at risk for developing TB?
TB affects all ages, races, income levels, and both genders. Those at higher risk include the following:
- people who live or work with others who have TB
- medically underserved populations
- homeless people
- people from other countries where TB is prevalent
- people in group settings, such as nursing homes
- people who abuse alcohol
- people who use intravenous drugs
- people with impaired immune systems

What are the symptoms of TB?
The following are the most common symptoms for TB. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently.
- cough that will not go away
- fatigue
- loss of appetite
- loss of weight
- fever
- coughing blood

The symptoms of TB may resemble other lung conditions or medical problems. Consult a physician for a diagnosis.
What causes TB?
The TB bacterium is spread through the air; however, repeated exposure to the germs is usually necessary before a person will become infected. It is not likely to be transmitted through personal items, such as clothing, bedding, or other items that a person with TB has touched. Adequate ventilation is the most important measure to prevent the transmission of TB.
How is TB diagnosed?
TB is diagnosed with a TB skin test. In this test, a small amount of testing material is injected into the top layer of the skin. If a certain size bump develops within two or three days, the test may be positive for tuberculosis infection. Additional tests to determine if a person has TB disease include x-rays and sputum tests.
TB skin tests are suggested for those:
- in high-risk categories.
- who live or work in close contact with people who are at high-risk.
- who have never had a TB skin test.
Recommendations for skin testing in children, from the American Academy of Pediatrics are as follows:
Immediate testing:
- If the child is thought to have been exposed in the last 5 years.
- If the child has an x-ray that looks like TB.
- If the child has any symptoms of TB.
- If a child is coming from countries where TB is prevalent.
Yearly skin testing:
- Children with HIV.
- Children that are in jail.
Testing every 2 to 3 years:
- Children that are exposed to high-risk people.
Consider testing in children from ages 4 to 6 and 11 to 16:
- If a child's parent has come from a high-risk country.
- If a child has traveled to high-risk areas.
- Children who live in densely populated areas.
Treatment for tuberculosis:
Specific treatment will be determined by your physician based on:
- your age, overall health, and medical history
- extent of the disease
- your tolerance for specific medications, procedures, or therapies
- expectations for the course of the disease
- your opinion or preference
Treatment may include:
- short-term hospitalization
- medications - isoniazid, rifampin, pyrazinamide, ethambutol, or streptomycin, may be prescribed for a period of time up to six months or more for the medication to be effective. Patients usually begin to improve within a few weeks of the start of treatment. The patient is not usually contagious once treatment begins, provided that treatment is carried through to the end, as prescribed by a physician.

With the ProTour Cycling season already starting up this week at the Tour Down Under in Australia (in the middle of their summer, of course), we thought it would be fun to take a look at all of the ProTour team kits. After all of the changes and mergers for the new year, at least you'll now have some idea what you're looking at in the colorful professional peloton. Plus we threw in links to all of the official team websites, if you want more info about the teams and their riders.

Hello folks,
Is it possible to change a table cell his size OnHover?
