Downtown Worcester has never really been known for its restaurant scene. Sure, there's a few places to grab lunch, but after 5 PM it's usually a ghost town.
It's not that anyone hadn't tried to bring nightlife to the heart of our city either. A while back 55 Pearl opened up, but couldn't sustain the lack of foot traffic (or any traffic) that Main St. serves up after the sun goes down. Irish times closed down, Woosta pizza moved acrossed the street and no one could find it anymore, McFadden's Mcfaded away, and even the Galleria closed its doors. For a while, downtown seemed like it was destined to be just a bunch of empty buildings.
With time comes change, and change has brought a new life to downtown. The Citizen, Armsby Abbey, The Muse, Bull Mansion, Rice Violet, and Deadhorse Hill are all leading the way to what I hope becomes a revitalization of the dining and nightlife in downtown Worcester.
With its industrial look, farm fresh menu, and unique vibe Deadhorse Hill has definitely made its impact on the food culture of downtown.
Sourcing locally, changing the menu seasonally, and being cooler than the ice behind the bar is now the norm if you want to open up a place anywhere north of chandler on the main drag.
Parking is still a little rough downtown and on a Friday night when the Palladium has a show going on, finding a decent place to park is a bit of a challenge. I managed to find a place a few blocks over, and in no time at all I found myself sitting at the bar ordering a cocktail.
The bar serves as a cafe and lunch counter during the day, and at night offers up a place to sit while waiting for a table. The dual purpose space really works well, and the need to keep your doors open from lunch till dinner in downtown is crucial — kudos to them for thinking things through.
The bar spans just about the length of the dining room. It's filled with vintage bottles of liquor, LED lighting, and a variety of mismatched cocktail glasses. It's definitely impressive, and clearly meant to be the focal point of the dining room.
The cocktail, beer, and wine list gathers interesting and different varieties of drafts and spirits you might not have heard of, but will definitely want to try. The bartender took great care in crafting my Old Fashion and it was perfect.
Now onto the menu and arguably my biggest gripe with my experience at Dead Horse.
We know you guys are edgy, hip, and ahead of all the trends when it come to food, but not all of us are. The menu at Dead Horse reads more like an ingredient list rather than your traditional menu. Its starts off listing the options of "small", "pasta", "large", and then "also". Of course we all know that "small" = apps., "pasta" = is well pasta, "large" = entrees, and "also" can be assumed to be snacks or tapas. So they should just say that. There's no need to make anyone play some cryptic word game when ordering diner.
I started my evening with an order of wild hen-of-the-woods mushrooms. If you're wondering what that is, don't worry — I was too. To me, anyway you serve a mushroom whether it be roasted or sauteed it's going to be good, so it didn't bother me that there was no other description. The mushrooms came out sauteed in a good amount of flavorful herbed oil and were absolutely delicious. I then moved on to my second course Fried brassicas.
Again if you're reading this and wondering what the heck is fried brassica you'd be well within your intellectual rights not knowing what it is. Brassica species and varieties commonly used for food include broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, choy sum, rutabaga, turnip and some seeds used in the production of canola oil and the condiment mustard. Just say fried broccoli. Your chef comes off as a pompous know it all when he uses words like brassica instead of broccoli. I guarantee that the kitchen would have sold twice the amount of orders that night if they had just changed a simple word.
Beyond the language used to describe this dish, it was incredible. Fried but not battered, beautiful crowns of broccoli laid atop a silky puree of Israeli hummus. This dish could easily have been a meal of its own. A vegetarians dream. So flavorful and crispy the broccoli had this chard, fried flavor that was mellowed out by the lemon and herbs laid atop a authentic mediterranean hummus.
Surprisingly, for the season I thought there were too many seafood option for entrees. After all the fish I ate this summer, I decided to go with the aged duck breast. Again, just like my other two choices, no description on how it was to be prepared, or sauces that might accompany the dish, so I put my trust in the chef and waited patiently.
Once my meal came out I was very pleased with its presentation. A towering dish of light pink duck breast was placed before me. The center of the duck breast had been cooked perfectly and fanned out atop an enormous and delicious potato croquette smothering a pile of braised greens.
The outside of the duck breast, however, had quite a thick cap of fat and skin. It was rendered to a nice golden color, but I wished it had been rendered a little more. It could have been a bit crunchier, the thick layer of skin made the breast chewy to the bite. The flavors and techniques used in preparation where all outstanding and translated through well to the dish. Overall, it was a very delicious end to a wonderful diner.
The Bottom Line:
The food is outstanding. My only qualm with the menu is the language and descriptions. Deadhorse hill uses fresh, local ingredients and doesn't over complicate their dishes with ingredients you've never heard of, if written in layman's terms. The ingredients are all pretty basic but get distorted by over the top chef lingo.
Service was wonderful. The bartender and staff all looked pretty relaxed and could offer up a suggestion of their favorite menu items or cocktails without a second of hesitation. They also offer up bread baked across the way from crust before your meal, and a small treat to refresh your palate when they deliver the check. It's the little things, that really make the diner experience more pleasurable
Atmosphere and ambience
Both get a high score in my book. I'm a sucker for the that modern industrial look. Funky art and paintings that grab your attention, vintage bar nick nacks, and bold light fixtures all add tot that elegant city night vibe.
The cocktails are all priced accordingly well, and the "also" category serves up rather inexpensive bar snacks. Apps and pastas are a little pricey but well worth the local and fresh taste. The entrees are all on the higher end of the spectrum. With a majority of seafood and steak making up the dinners, finding something under 30$ is a challenge. They even offer a hung, dry aged prime rib dinner for 110$.
I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone who isn't adventurous culinary-wise or on a limited budget. To everyone else, the price reflects the quality and skill, set forth by the staff to deliver a pleasurable dining experience.

Benefits of salt reduction in South African food

The deleterious effect of high salt intake on blood pressure is irrefutable. High salt intake is also associated with gastric cancer and osteoporosis. Data to support the association between sodium and hypertension were generated from animal studies, ecological studies, feeding studies, cohort studies, randomised controlled trials and meta-analyses of such trials. Globally hypertension accounts for 62% of strokes and 49% of heart attacks1,2,3.Norman et al. estimated that hypertension accounted for 9% of all deaths in people 30 years and older in 2000 in South Africa (SA). Of these, 50% of strokes, 42% of ischaemic heart disease, 72% of hypertensive heart disease and 22% of other cardiovascular burden were attributable to high blood pressure4.
Two studies in the United States modelled the impact of salt reduction on population health. Palar and Sturm estimated the effect of salt intakes according to the World Health Organisation (WHO) recommendation of 5g salt per day. Such a decrease would result in an estimated11 million fewer people tobe hypertensive and that 18 billion US dollar less would be spent on health care5. Bibbins-Domingo et al. showed that even if the reduction was as little as 3g of salt intake per day, the number of new cases of coronary heart disease will decrease by 60 000 to 120 000, stroke by 32 000 to66 000 and myocardial infarctions 54 000 to 99 000. Such an intervention would be cost-saving even if only a modest reduction of 1g salt per day were achieved gradually between 2010 and 2019. Reduction of salt intakewould be more cost-effective than using medications to lower blood pressure in all persons with hypertension6.In most populations similar benefits have been predictedif a mean reduction of 1g salt intake per day can be achieved. Salt reduction of 1g per day can save 6000 lives and can prevent a further 6000 non-fatal strokes and heart attacks each year 7.
Global initiatives to reduce salt
In most countries in the world 5 to 18 g of salt per person per day are consumed, which is more thanthe physiological requirement,and has prompted a global movement to support countries to reduce the salt intake of their populations8.Asariaet al. showed that salt reduction is at least as cost-effective as tobacco control9.For this reasonsalt reduction has been identified as a priority intervention and is listed as a cost-effective intervention in non-communicable disease (NCD) prevention10.These influences put salt reduction firmly on the agenda of the UN High-level Meeting on the Prevention and Control of Non-communicable Diseases held in September 2011. At the meeting the WHOwas taskedto develop a global monitoring framework, voluntary global targets and a Global Action Plan for 2013 to reduce the impact of NCDs globally. The target of globally reducing salt intake by 30%, as part of the overall NCD recommendations, was recommended at the WHO Executive Board meeting in January 2013. Once this recommendation was adopted by the member states,all the WHO member states will be in a position to act on high salt intakes in their countries.
Sources of dietary salt in South Africa
Until about 15 years ago very little attention was paid to the amount of salt consumed by South Africans and its impact on their health.Accurately measuring salt intake is challenging, because the gold standard to ascertain salt intake isto measure sodium in all urine passed by a person during a 24 hour period. Conducting such a study in large population studies is not an easy task and few such studies have been conducted in free living populations. In 2005 Charlton et alpublished data on salt intakes of 300 people in Cape Town11. This showed that people of African descent consumed 7.8 g salt per day, while people of mixed race ancestry consumed 8.5g salt and people of European descent had the highest intake at 9.5 g of salt per day.
From a range of nutrition surveys conducted between 1982 and 2010 foods contributing most to salt intake in South African populations were identified.One of the staple foods, namely bread,was the food that contributed the most to salt intake (between 40 -50% of total salt intake). It turned out that South African bread has a remarkably high salt content. Other foodstuffs that contribute significantamounts of saltare meat products like sausage and pies, margarines, gravy and soup powders, meat and vegetable extracts and products containing sodium monoglutamates. These products contribute significantly to the diets of South African low-income groups12.
The benefit of salt reduction in South Africa
These findingspointed to the importance to study the effects of food with less salton blood pressure, especially in low-income groups. Charlton et al. conducted a randomised controlled trial in LangaTownship in Cape Town with the assistance of leading food producers in South Africa12. They manufactured low-sodium versions of six foods, including low-sodium bread,margarine, soup cubes, soup powders, a low-sodium table salt and maas (sour milk) to increase calcium intake. Consumption of the healthier foods compared to the usual commercially produced food significantly reduced blood pressure over an 8-week period.
As salt in South Africa is fortified with iodine a concern has been expressed that salt intake of 5 g or less a day may lead to insufficient iodine intake in geographical areas with low iodine levels. Charlton et al. assessed this and concluded that a salt intake to 5g per day of iodinated salt will not lead to iodine deficiency.13
An economic evaluation of lowering the salt content of bread, soup mix, seasoning and margarine was recently performed in SA. It is estimatedthat by decreasing the salt content in fourfoods by 0.85g/day, the distribution of systolic blood pressure in the South African population would be lowered and would result in 7400 fewer deaths due to cardiovascular disease, as well as 4300 fewer non-fatal strokes per year14. These changes would save SA R300 million annually in direct hospital costs. Stroke is one of the top chronic conditions in terms of cost because of its associated disability. However, the cost saving due to prevention of stroke was not estimated.It was estimated that one-third of the lives saved would be from premature mortality in the under 60 age group.
South African initiatives to reduce salt
The National Department of Health (NDOH)considered the data from international and South African studies,as well as the international movement towards the reduction of salt in food.Theyinitiated aconsultation process withacademics, representatives of the foodindustry and non-governmental organisations such as the Heart and Stroke Foundation of SA. Furthermore, international experts on salt reductionvisitedSA to advise on the process. Guidelines on desirable levels of salt in six groups of foods, from UK, Australia and the USA were consulted to ascertain the target levels of salt agreed to in those countries. A questionnaire was distributed to food industry members and the results showed that about half of the large food industryproducers of products high in sodium preferred to have regulated salt reductions rather than voluntary salt reduction. This is fortuitous as an Australian studyshowed thatmore health gains was seen through mandatory legislative changes on food containing salt than through voluntary changes15. The Minister of Health published draft regulations (R533: 11 July 2012) in the Government Gazette to add to regulations pertaining to the Foodstuffs, Cosmetics and Disinfectants act (act 54 of 1972)16. These draft regulations show how salt will be decreased in certain foodstuffsover a period of several years. These include regulations for the salt content in bread, breakfast cereals, margarines and fat spreads, savoury snacks, processed meats and raw-processed meat sausages, dry soup and gravy powders and stock cubes. Extensive feedback were received over the three months period for comments and the draft regulations were reviewed and adapted to enable a gradual reduction of salt in the identified foods to achieve the required levels well before 2020. The final regulations relating to the reduction of sodium in foodstuffs and related matters were published on 20 March 201317.
It is clear that regulation is only one aspect of the process to ensure an adequate salt reduction strategy for SA. The issue of discretionary salt addedduring domestic food preparation and at the table will require an active and intense public education initiative which is currently being planned in collaboration with the NDOH and the SA Heart and Stroke Foundation. Health professionals and members of the Nutrition Society can play an important role in this initiative.

The fifth annual Hollywood Film Festival wrapped Monday night at the BevHilton with the feature nod going to "An American Rhapsody," directed by Eva Gardos, and international feature going to "Girl From Rio," directed by Christopher Monger.
"Moulin Rouge," which was earlier tapped as Hollywood Movie of the Year along with nods to stars Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor, also received trophies during the gala.
Kidman and McGregor were on hand to pick up their actress and actor of the year trophies from director Baz Luhrmann and thesp Cameron Diaz, respectively.
"It's an acknowledgment that more difficult, riskier films can be embraced on a broader level," Kidman said in accepting her trophy.
The "Moulin Rouge" awards were announced earlier this summer after fans voted at Variety.com and Entertainment Tonight Online Web sites and at Hollywood Video stores nationwide.
Among the newly announced awards, "Cunnamulla" received the doc nod, "Lurch" for shorts and "F8" for animated film.
Fest screened 44 shorts, docs and features over the five-day period.
Hollywood Film Fest prexy Carlos de Abreu, who founded the org in 1997, said: "The idea is to have this event in Hollywood, by Hollywood, but for everybody, for the global creative community."
More than 1,200 attended the gala including presenters Robert Wise, Harrison Ford, Sandra Bullock, Charlize Theron, Penny Marshall and Diaz. "ET" anchor Julie Moran hosted.

Defender Darryl Westlake is keen to cement his place in our team over the coming weeks.
The 22-year-old recently extended his loan spell at One Call Stadium until the end of the campaign, having initially joined us on loan from Sheffield United in November.
"I'm pleased to be staying," said Westlake. "The main reason why I came here is to play games and hopefully that's what I'm going to continue doing.
"It was a tough test with all the games over Christmas, but I feel sharp and now is the fittest that I've been all season."
Westlake made his 10th appearance for us against Scunthorpe United last Saturday, as our three-match unbeaten streak came to an end courtesy of two goals from Paul Hayes.
"In the three games after [the defeat at] Rochdale, we picked up seven points, which was pleasing, but it was disappointing to lose to Scunthorpe," continued the full-back.
"We had a couple of chances and if we had taken them then it would have been a different game, but they scored a great goal and it turned the [momentum of the] game.
"We were all up for the game at the start and when you're on top for the first 15 minutes, but a goal like that goes in, there is nothing that you can really do.
"But I think we still dug deep and maybe we could have got a point at the end of the game."
Tomorrow, we lock horns with a Portsmouth team who are just three places below us in the Sky Bet League Two table, and Westlake knows it is a very important game.
"They're in and around us in the table so it's an important game," he continued. "We need to pick up points and climb up the table, because we don't want to keep venturing down.
"Portsmouth can attract a lot of fans [to their games] so it'll be a tough test for us, but also exciting."

Seriously, read that headline and think hard about it – now you know who the GOP represents in Congress. Not the angry, disillusioned, ignorant Tea Partiers who voted them in, and not you or I or anyone else in the reality-based community: they represent the millionaires who line their pockets, wine and dine them on the backs of the American people, and who shovel money into their campaign funds in return for the earmarks and pet projects and contracts that the GOP says they're so opposed to but will likely flinch over.
So this is what it's come to – if you've ever wondered if there's really a class war in America, this is it, and sadly, there are a number of wealthy Americans who see this for what it is and are begging Congress to raise their taxes.
But no – the GOP claims that they're doing us all a favor by hand-feeding more caviar to the rich while the middle class can't afford to stay in their homes and small businesses can't afford to hire even if they want to, so this is the result:
The Republican rich-people bias isn't exactly a shocker, but finally someone's had the gall to spell it out. In a speech to the pro-business Tax Council, House Rep. David Camp said that the Dem's middle-class tax extensions–permanent breaks for those earning $200,000 or less, with temporary extensions on the wealthy–would be blocked during the lame-duck session unless the rich get the same permanent extensions. Wait–he's demanding the rich get equal treatment as the middle class?
Sad, isn't it?

Asked about the complaints from citizens affected by the 2019 floods and seeing the processing of their files being delayed at the Ministry of Public Security (ministère de la Sécurité Publique) for different reasons, the MNA for Pontiac, André Fortin invited the residents to make contact with his office directly.
André Fortin also added that the situation of the MRC Pontiac following the floods was "unique". He also mentioned that he hopes that the Minister of Municipal Affairs (ministre des Affaires municipals et de l'Habitation du Québec), Andrée Laforest, will eventually come to the Fort-Coulonge/Mansfield area to better understand the situation of the residents.

The movie was sound and fury, caffeine and air conditioning. People laughed, he laughed. People gasped, he gasped. For a while, Jeff was people and that felt marvelous. He kept finding new movies and delaying the return to reality. Ten minutes till six, Jeff finally gave and came out into the big hot summer sun. Saturday was winding down and the sidewalks were rolling up but Jeff felt adventurous.
After some meandering, he found himself behind a strip mall and fording a small stream. The water was unfortunate as it reminded him of the gigantic soda ingested previously at the multiplex. Behind him, he heard the oh so chilling cliché click of a cocking pistol. He slowly turned and met a mugger and his gun.
"Come on man, don't make me do this."
Sweat trickled down Jeff's highly focused vision. In a practical lesson in perspective, the world as Jeff saw it at that very moment was one long metal tube. A giant .38 covered the entirety of Jeff's visual spectrum. He stared into the barrel and was unaware of the man screaming at him. The sweat flooded his eyes and he was forced to blink.
Then as if an epiphany, Jeff knew what to do. He brought his index finger behind the trigger and an elbow into the mugger's gut. The mugger relents leaving his gun in the hands of Jeff. Jeff does not follow figuring lesson learned. It was all too easy really. Jeff drops the gun into the trash and moves on to a local bar.
Carol sits at the bar alone. She's a Sagittarius who likes fishing and the works of Chuck Palahniuk. Jeff is a Gemini who thinks that Chuck should get an easier to spell name. He prefers Gary Paulsen. Insanely, the two hit it off. They both speak bad Spanish and worse Japanese. The both drink a lot. To their disappointment, bars tend to close.
Drunkenly the two stumble back to Carol's home. They speak in tones of reverence and urgency. It's all nonsense, but urgently revered nonsense at least. They sorta fall into each other and stay there. The night is warm and pleasant, and the two become one. They sleep and in the morning they puke and yet they are still happy.
All is well, until Jeff blinks and is suddenly right back to the bit of land behind the strip mall. The mugger looks impatient. Jeff moves forwards confusing a day dream for prophecy. The mugger is firmly grounded in the moment. Without hesitation, he puts a round between Jeff's eyes. Carol sits at the bar alone and stays there, her image engraved next t shrapnel resting in a dead mass of meat.

How much would you pay for the world's classiest beverage?
"To Friar John Cor, by order of the King, to make Aqua Vitae, VIII bolls of malt."
That's from the Exchequer Rolls in 1494, the first mention of Scotch production. That was enough malt to make about 1500 bottles for Scotland's royal household. It's warm and calming sensation gave Scotch a medicinal aura, and so it was used to treat all kinds of ailments. Some still believe that today, but nobody believes you drink it only for a cure.
Scotch is regarded as one of the classiest beverages you can buy and its production is a complicated business. All for good reason, as good scotch can command some healthy prices. Before we get into that, we should go through some facts. Aficionados certainly know all this stuff, but for the rest of us:
Scotch can be made from malt or grain, or combinations of the two, but it can only be made in Scotland and as specified by law. So even if you exactly duplicate the process somewhere else, say, Japan, it is not scotch.
Scotch falls under the broad classification of whiskey (or whisky, if you prefer that spelling), so all scotches are whiskey, but not all whiskeys are scotch.
Scotch has no added substances other than water and caramel coloring.
Scotch must be aged in oak barrels no less than 3 years.

A Pennsylvania-based law firm has nearly completed its investigation into a data breach at the Colchester Town Hall, First Selectman Art Shilosky said Friday.
The firm, Mullen Coughlin LLC, represents organizations "facing data privacy events," according to its website. The firm's work is being covered through the town's insurance policy, Shilosky said.
According to a statement posted on the town's website, Colchester learned that a "limited" number of computers were infected with a ransomware.
"Colchester immediately began efforts to investigate the nature and scope of the attack," the statement read. "These efforts focused on mitigation and remediation of the virus to stop its spread. We continue to be operational with minimal systems affected by the ransomware."
The Colchester School District network and its data were not impacted.
"We will continue to update the public as necessary with information related to this incident," the statement read. "We also thank our community for its patience during this time."

One of my accounts was hanging out with stalkergirl today but when I used lazer beams during a bingo it still required chakra.
Their are two possibilities that I can think of.
1) the jutsu are only free if you have that ally in your team
2) the jutsu still have their regular costs during bingos
if anyone knows which is correct, please add it to the friendship section.

It is easy to target him." Wilmots announced a 24-man team, but said the number of goalkeepers would be reduced from four to three based on the availability of Koen Casteels.

At this point in my life I have sat on the Board of Directors for several different non-profit organizations. With each of these organizations there is always an agenda item entitled "financial report". When this item comes up on the agenda each person at the table flips their packet to a series of pages that contains financial figures. The financial report is usually given by the treasurer or finance director to the Board. If you watch some of the Board members during the presentation, you will start to see eye's glaze over, or attention turn to other things. Financial reports are often pretty boring. Most Board members just want to know if the organization is making money, and if it is not, where is it losing money? This misguided approach has ruined many non-profits through embezzlements and poor management.
Poor Financial Management
There is an abundance of financial management software programs available for an organization to use to track its spending and income. At this point, there really is no excuse to not be using something, even if it is just an excel spreadsheet. This organization was pretty small and was operated by "officers" and "members". One of the members was elected/appointed as treasurer for the organization. The treasurer was responsible for collecting dues from members and paying whatever expenses came into the organization.
Because the treasurer was lazy, and it was a small organization, the treasurer did not track anything, let alone use a program to do so. The financial report at meetings consisted of the treasurer telling members who had paid their dues, and which had not. Of course, there were often arguments from members that were identified as not having paid dues as they stated they had paid. If a member was adamant enough that they had paid their dues, the treasurer would mark them down as paid, even if they had not paid. When it came to expenses there were no procedures to track or reconcile accounts. Nobody, let alone the treasurer, knew how much money the organization had.
We began by running a three-year financial review using bank statements. What we found was that during this period the organization had lost over $5,000.00 simply because they were not tracking their revenue and expenses. We immediately set them up with a Quickbooks file, and then setup internal controls. All deposits were copied prior to going to the bank. Copies of all outgoing checks were made prior to being paid to the recipient. Expense reimbursements had to be submitted and approved by the Officers prior to a check being issued. Members were formally invoiced for dues and payments were tracked. A budget was also created to help monitor spending.
At last check this organization was running a healthy profit that could be used to support programs in its community. We maintain our position as an outside resource that the Officers can use to help ensure that they are operating appropriately.
Executive Director Gone Wild
At one organization's monthly Board of Director's meeting the Executive Director informed the Board that the organization needed to change the way they operated. Their organization received a directive from a federally funded program that they had to change the way their organization operated in regards to its mission. In order to fund this change of program and save funds the Executive Director convinced the Board of Directors that they should remove their outsourced accounting oversight and allow the Executive Director to perform those functions, even though the Executive Director had no training or knowledge to do so. As you can guess, the Board immediately fell for this tactic.
Want to guess what else happened? That's right, without oversight the Executive Director embezzled over $700,000.00 from the organization, right under the noses of the Board of Directors. This embezzlement made the front page of the local newspaper, and for other reasons, was picked up by national media. Because the embezzlement involved federal funds the Executive Director was prosecuted in federal court with federal felony charges.
Why did the Board of Directors allow for the removal of oversight? This particular Board of Directors is not made up of financially minded, or business management professionals. In fact, this Board was made up of politicians, government employees and one banker. The one person that understood finance relied solely on the outsourced accountant for all financial related issues.
Not only is the organization out over $700,000.00 that could go to help the people in their community that need it, they are also out over $150,000.00 in legal fees related to the investigation and prosecution of their former Executive Director. Not mention, the reputation of the organization and its Board of Directors is forever tarnished in their community.
Ministry, it's all in the Family
Unlike many small businesses, non-profit Boards of Directors should not include a majority of members related by blood, marriage or common business interest. We ran across a religious non-profit organization where all the Board members were related by blood or marriage.
While the purpose of the organization was religious in nature, and over all they did operate with a true religious purpose, they needed to add Board members that were not related. Because there was no outside oversight the Board/Family operated the non-profit organizations bank account as their household/family bank account.
No family/board member was receiving a paycheck. If they needed to purchase groceries or pay their mortgage, the funds were pulled from the non-profit organization bank account. This activity pierced the corporate veil and if reported to the Internal Revenue Service would cause them to lose their non-profit entity.
While the family hated to hear this, they moved forward with setting up separate bank accounts and receiving pay checks. They also began recruiting for Board members that were not related to them. They also removed all but one family member from the Board.
We cannot stress enough that non-profit organizations need to engage legal and accounting oversight to ensure that they are operating within the guidelines that have been established for their organization. Even though you surely have the best of intentions, the guidelines have been established for a purpose. They are not there to penalize or make things difficult. They are there to ensure a level playing field and that the benefits that are afforded to non-profits are not exploited by unethical individuals.

CHICO — With no coronavirus testing labs in Butte County yet, some patients experiencing symptoms similar to COVID-19 are often encouraged to stay home and contact their provider, rather than come in for treatment.
Yet some who do seek and receive tests are left waiting weeks for results — sometimes for tests lost in the process.
'We'll call you'
It was Tuesday, March 10, when Wendy Jones, 78, said she began to experience troubling respiratory symptoms — first a cough, then "constant chills" and major fatigue and a "terrible" headache for five days. She also experienced "low grade nausea, low grade runny nose." Her temperature progressed from 97.5 to 100.5 that weekend and her cough produced phlegm.
"The fatigue and headache were huge," she said.
Jones arrived at her primary care provider Monday, March 16 for treatment.
"As soon as he saw my symptoms, he ran and got the kit … had me wear a mask in the office," Jones said. She said the assistants taking the specimen wore gowns and masks, but she "did not receive any instructions at all" for self-isolation while at home.
"They said "we'll call you," Jones said — but by Thursday, April 2, she had not heard from her provider about the test again. She said her symptoms cleared up rapidly after the test.
Jones said Thursday she wasn't surprised, reading from news sources that getting test results is a problem everywhere.
"I get the impression, because I've seen this health group for many years, the fault does not lie there," she said. "But I called Monday the 30th … I haven't heard anymore from them."
Jones has a history of respiratory issues. Her father passed away due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and she uses an inhaler. She considers herself immuno-compromised due to 10 years of treatment for rheumatoid arthritis.
She stopped attending classes at Osher Lifelong Learning Institute two weeks prior to March 16, and said she leads an otherwise "very quiet life," besides walking her dog three or four miles each day.
"I live with my spouse who's 88," Jones said and added that she "did not stay away from him."
"We are both pretty much self-isolated," she said. "I buy groceries through e-cart at Raley's. He only went into the store once for ordering prescriptions."
As it had been over two weeks since her test, Jones wasn't sure what to do.
"The fact that I didn't keep those symptoms is certainly a good thing. but I want to know," she said.
Lost results?
Laura Smith said her mother, Durham resident Gail Nancy McCrady, went to Enloe Medical Center while struggling to breathe Monday, March 16 — the same day that Wendy Jones was tested by her doctor.
McCrady "couldn't breathe" at the time she was admitted and needed oxygen, Smith said. McCrady was tested for coronavirus that night and officially admitted by Tuesday morning.
As McCrady is 82 and suffers from melanoma and other issues, Smith said she thinks her mother is high risk. McCrady briefly lived at The Terraces but required daily help due to her other ailments.
McCrady said she was aided by masked staff members and kept in an isolated area, despite never being confirmed for carrying the virus. She said she never had a fever.
According to Butte County Public Health Department, Enloe Medical Center typically takes between three to four days to return test results for COVID-19. But Smith and McCrady said the test never came back.
"We know how backed up they are," Smith said. But McCrady was kept in Enloe for 16 days. Smith said the hospital kept her because they needed to monitor whether she had the coronavirus and/or a respiratory syncytial virus.
The following Monday — March 23 — "we got called by a case worker saying she'll be discharged today," Smith said.
But that didn't happen. McCrady initially tested positive for respiratory syncytial virus — "she was going to be quarantined and they said we need to keep her in," Smith said.
"Every day we got a call — oh we'll have the results tomorrow," Smith said. Smith said she had made sure to email Enloe's CEO on Friday, March 27 to ask for fast tracking the test.
Then Smith was called by a nurse Tuesday, March 31 and notified that her mother had been re-tested for the coronavirus on Saturday, March 28.
"Turns out they had lost the test the week before," Smith claimed.
McCrady was discharged Wednesday evening on April 1 with no symptoms, but Smith said because of her previous conditions, "She's completely an invalid again" without physical therapy.
Chico Creek Rehabilitation accepted McCrady on April 1, but Smith said, "they want it in writing that she didn't have RSV and COVID."
McCrady and Smith said they have not yet received that paperwork confirmation from Enloe.
"Now we're like, shoot, we should have had a test last week, (so) we don't know if the COVID-19 one is done," Smith said.
Although such cases seem to demonstrate a slow process, physician assistants testing individuals say there has also been misinformation that often leads to people with mild symptoms thinking they can "just walk up and get tests."
Rob Glatthaar, a physician assistant at Enloe, said he screens patients in the hospital's outdoor tent triage system. Earlier in the month, he saw an average of 30-40 patients each day for symptoms "when the public believed we were testing everybody for COVID."
After more information about the testing patients can actually receive was released, Glatthaar said he now sees on average 20 patients a day.
Glatthaar says he is "seeing patients that are mildly ill."
"(There's) lots of anxiety with very mild illnesses. Those we deem are possible get sent inside (the) hospital for (a) further work up," he said.
If patients are sent home, like Wendy Jones was, those individuals must act as if they do have the virus to protect loved ones for weeks.
Patients must seek testing from their health care provider, according to Lisa Almaguer. Butte County's Public Health Department will not be responsible for individual testing.
A commercial lab test result can take up to seven days, while Enloe typically provides results in three to four days, Almaguer said.
Specimens are not gathered at Quest Diagnostics in Chico, according to Quest's official advisory on its phone line. Only health care providers can gather specimens for testing.
Test results
In his guest commentary to this newspaper Tuesday, Stephen Caldes, an assistant professor at Chico State who waited 13 days for test results, wrote, "Call this what you will — an anecdote, an outlier, an exception — but clearly we do not have all the tests we need and clearly the slow result time is exacerbating the issue, skewing the numbers."
Caldes, of course, is not the only one left waiting for weeks without answers.
McCrady said she finally got her test back Thursday, April 2 — negative for COVID-19. She has not yet gotten confirmation of having had RSV.
"I'm not impressed with Enloe," she said, but added that she now feels much better.
Jones said Thursday, "My concern is, I'm no longer feeling the symptoms, but I certainly could be a carrier. I need closure."
She finally got that closure Friday, April 3 — 18 days after she went to the doctor for testing — her COVID-19 test was also negative.
Enloe Medical Center declined an interview about procedures and criteria for testing and cited patient confidentiality when declining to comment on McCrady's case, after multiple attempts by this newspaper.

Abstract: In this study we were interested in the residual income of selected Slovene companies. This parameter of company's efficiency not only looks at return on invested funds, but also implicitly compares it with risk adjusted opportunity cost of such investment. It is therefore argued that this parameteris a better performance measure than simply accounting performance measures. Our results based on selected listed companies in Slovenia showed that residual income was far from being positive, at least in year 2006. In year 2007 the situation improved when three out of ten selected companies had a negative residual income which means that companies did not create value for their shareholders and that they did not generate enough profits to cover the appropriate cost of capital, i.e. the cost of capital that take into consideration the risk adjusted opportunity cost.Found in: ključnih besedahSummary of found: ......

Abstract: Production optimisation is the major objective of any production process and it is tightly related to long term sustainable development of any production factory. Among production optimisation frameworks the overall equipment efficiency (OEE) methodology is the most popular one. However, this methodology approaches production optimisation only from the technology point of view and ignore the economic perspective of optimisation. This article develops case study approach to compare two different methodological approaches which relate technical and cost efficiency. The first framework is based on econometric techniques and regression analysis. The second one is based on mathematical modelling. Basic difference between both is related to the explanation power of model used. Econometric approach allows error term and consequently only regression relationship between technical and cost efficiency. Mathematical modelling requires definition relationship between technical and cost efficiency. To take the decision of which framework is preferable we apply both methodological approaches in the case of foundry industry. Our results select mathematical modelling with key performance indicator overall cost efficiency (OCE) framework as preferable methodological approach to production optimisation.Found in: ključnih besedahSummary of found: ......

Abstract: The evaluation of e-learning and conventional pedagogical activities in nursing programmes has focused either on a single pedagogical activity or the entire curriculum, and only on students or teachers' perspective. The goal of this study was to design and test a novel approach for evaluation of e-learning and conventional pedagogical activities that considers students', teachers' and managers' perspectives. A case study of the proposed approach was performed at a publicly funded nursing faculty with Slovenian and Italian students from 2009 to 2012. The case study was combined with focus group discussions, interviews, direct observation and survey. The proposed approach allows management to compare the value of different pedagogical activities through the students', teachers' and managers' perspectives. The approach proved useful in the evaluation of pedagogical activities and provided valid arguments for long-term pedagogical process improvementFound in: ključnih besedahSummary of found: ......

Abstract: In this paper we investigate the influence and importance of population ageing for labour market. Particularly we focus on unemployment, salaries and population education level. After reviewing some of the previous research on the influence of demographic ageing on labour market, we set three hypotheses, referring to the three above mentioned specific aspects of labour market, which were tested using multivariate regression analysis. Based on demographic and socio-economic panel data on Slovenian municipalities, we separately tested the three hypotheses in case of Slovenia; and using panel data on European Union countries we separately tested the three hypotheses in case of European Union and compared the results. Based on data for Slovenia and European Union we found out that population ageing increases unemployment and decreases population education level, however in case of analysis of salaries the results are somehow ambiguous.Found in: ključnih besedahSummary of found: ......

In "The friendly face of the guests of Heidy this time we present someone very special; for the first time we have a prominent Psychic and Astrologer from Coban residing in Puebla, Mexico and who has more than 25 years of experience. He is Luis Fernando Mencos, he has predicted several important events around the world, and has received several awards and has traveled to more than 30 countries on different continents.
I present Luis Fernando Mencos to this space, where you can say what you want and other media cannot do.
Without a doubt being clairvoyant is a gift of few, when did youfind outthe ability to predict events?As a child, I had dreams that later I talked about and happened. Also I foresaw the events ofpeople, who I watched, I remember, I told to my older sister, (only seeing her) that she would be thegirlfriend of a "Chinese", he appeared 4 months later in her life.
With more than 25 years dedicated to astrology, did you study this science?Yes, I did, trying to give myself a logical explanation to what happened with me. Also I read a lot about the importance of alternative medicine and combining certain ingredients to perform spiritual rituals, but I am most interested in practicing Mayan rituals, since I am from Coban.
What event you predicted in 1990 that provoked controversy?Hahaha (smiles) I remember thenow gone political party MASshowed up at my colonyto perform their usual ads and ask for votes for don Jorge Serrano Elías.When the candidate for the Presidency of Guatemala went from house to house asking for thier vote I, only 8 years old, said " you would be President only for a few days" since there would be a coup d'état, my grandma scolded me and Mr. Serrano Elías just smiled, but a journalist asked me why I said that and wrote it in a notebook. When the self-coup of State was given, that same journalist came to my house and did me an interview that was published in the newspaper "El Grafico" which is archived in the National Archive of Guatemala.
You have predicted several events both politics, such as social, environmental, among others, can you tell us which you think have surprised your followers?
I spoke about the coronation of the Miss Universe Dominican Amelia Vega and the electoral triumph of Martin Torrijos in Panama in 2003. I also spoke about the earthquake in Haiti (2010) and the tragic death of the singer Selena (1995) and as curious data, since that I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Álvaro Enrique Arzú in the defunct hotel el Dorado (Guatemala) I said that he would be civil servant for many years and that it would make a great story in our country. Words that were repeated by in his personal office located in zone 10.
In Guatemala how did you come to be known as Psychic and Astrologer?By the testimonies of the neighbors, my teachers, the families of my classmates and the group of Boy Scouts that I belonged and all curious people who suddenly saw anypublication about me in a newspaper and by word of mouth were commenting about me to the extent of going to visitme at my house for a consultation and the veracity of my predictions. Then I had the opportunity to be interviewed on national TV by Mr. Gonzalo "Chalo" Hernández in the defunct program "Venga con Chalo Venga" and that was my first time on TV and I think it brought me luck because since that time, the media is my second home.
Why and since when did you decide to leave your homeland and go to settle at Puebla, Mexico?Since I visited Mexico for the first time, I really enjoyed it and I always saw it as my second homeland and on the death of my grandmother, I used my inheritance money to buy my house in Mexico. I love Guatemala and I'm still more chapín than the chipilin, and I feel very happy when I go on vacation twice a year.
In my house, all my food is Guatemalan and for the Christmas holidays everything smells Guatemala, even many come to my house to taste the flavors of my land.
What event you think was the most important forecast in 2013?Papal change,nobody wanted to believe it until Benedict XVI resigned and entered the new Pontiff.
Have you predicted something personal that has changed your life?Sure, many things, good and bad. Unfortunately, I predicted the tragic death of my sister just three days before that a car rolled over her. I tried to warn her, but the time was given as it was already written. I have also seen very nice things for me, even had a dream where I saw myself winning the lottery and shortly after, it happened, it was not the Grand Prize, but it wasa very good one hahaha, also as a child I knew that I would be very well recognized for my work and that I would travel the world as it's been since I've visited more than 30 countries on different continents.
Tell us about your favorite cuisine?As a child I liked the kitchen and my grandma taught me how to cook. I am the only one in my family that retains the true taste of my grandmother, thanks to God, even when I lived in Guatemala many asked me to make tamales for Christmas, the famouscobanero broth kak´ik and fiambre. Now that I live in Mexico and only get to travel to my countryfor vacation, many ask me to prepare them something to remember the true taste of Granny. By the years I graduated as a Licentiate in gastronomy.
|Dos cobaneros reunidos
You have a very admirable facet and perhaps a few know about it, can you tell us about the foundation that bears your name and where it is?I belong to a Catholic group in the parish of my district and I have a good friendship with the priest. At the beginning I offered him financial support for the most needy in the sierra NorteofPuebla, Mexico. Then is where I think sharing part of what I have with them and with those who need it. The people who visit me and know about it chooses to bring me all kinds of food and medicine, even a great friend who is a doctor supports me in matters of health. The Foundation bears my name and is located in the State of Puebla Mexico.
Which countries do you plan to visit this year as healing journeys and how often doyou make them?I make 3 trips to Cuba and two to Panama a year.
Which event do you think that Guatemalans and the rest of the world will be talking about?Without a doubt will be the financial issue. In our country, there will be many changes in the policy. And before this Government ends there will be an attack within a political venue that will bring attention to the country as never before.
A new political party will be born and will fight the triumph with a man who from an early age began with politics and is of the sign Libra and is who will sit in the coveted seat.
There would be very good changes forGuatemala, there will be treaties with some countries that will benefit the population. A resignation of a civil servant and it will be on the front page. Also, there will be a public scandal. The violence that plagues the country will continue but will have a break and we will believe that it has finished, however, in order of damaging the current Government; there will be things that the history of our country has not seen before
- There will be two deaths of important people in the country.
- There will be earthquakes and one of them will be very strong.
- There will be a fire that will consume a very large enclosure, everything points to a market and the unfortunate will have very significant losses.
What do you forecast to "Friendly Face of the Guests of Heidy" for this year?It will have a very good growth; there will be projects to carry out an idea planned to television or national radio. You will be awarded a deserved recognition.
|Con Luis Pellecer
What is your relationship with the artistic world?In Mexico, I keep a very close friendship bond with some figures of Mexican stardom. I have had the opportunity to sponsor three people seeking to position itself within the music, among them the Mexican singer/songwriter Paris Guzmán.
What Awards have you received throughout this career that has filled you with satisfaction?I have received recognition in the famous square "Galleries of the Stars" certainly was something extremely satisfying, it was also very exciting to have received other recognition by the magazine "International graphics" in one of the main theaters of the city of Mexico, though I want to clarified, all the awards of my work and experience have been very important to me. In March, the Costa Rican community will deliver me "Ray Tico" recognition in a known theater of the city of Mexico, not to mention every detail and every gesture of affection that independent people show me day by day.
Where do you publish your predictions? I publish it Revista Gráfica Internacional that has coverage in Mexico, Argentina, Los Angeles CA. and Colombia. Also I publish for the "GuiaTv" magazine that circulates in the State of Illinois Chicago.
Can you share with us the different spaces in the social networks, YouTube and others?I share with all my people through Facebook and on my official website www.luisfernandomencos.com

To the city that never sleeps,
Hello, dear old friend. Even after so many years you never fail to marvel me through your surprising change of attire at the transition from day to night. We are no longer strangers, not after the countless sleepless nights we shared, though sometimes I cannot help wishing that we were; as young as we were once, raw and so full of life, prepared to throw ourselves straight into something that resembled a mistake, and if we were so, I'm certain I'd retrace my steps through your crisscrossed roads without any sort of hesitation whatsoever.
I could thank you for being a silent acquaintance, or maybe you could thank me, but I believe we're all past that. Little remains of the fascination I held for you and your people; your, I say, for I don't consider myself a part of you anymore. But you knew that.
You were once my sanctuary, but now I'm in need of running away from you too. I came here, fooled by fantasies I knew were vain, but to which I clung onto, for what else did I have to live for? I knew no one back then, and I know no one now, certainly not beneath the several layers of masks that each of them don. Oh dear, dear city, why couldn't I see that you were crawling with strange strangers?
Too many memories you hold in everything you simply are, every piece of you a blazing scar in my mind, but just for the sake of our association, can I ask you one last favour? I'm letting go, and am asking you to do the same. This really won't work out if you keep haunting me, and this way it will be easier. Maybe not at first, but eventually I will manage. I will have to.
There have been nights I woke up gasping for air, my monsters looming over me, and I couldn't breathe. It felt like someone was hammering my insides without bruising the skin. At the preset of each day, I, a stranger trapped among strangers, had to choose from my own set of masks, and at the end, I felt like hiding my face in the nonexistent darkness I longed for, and to howl till I lost my voice. You were big enough to house millions of people, but certainly not huge enough for our souls to roam free. We had, unknowingly, agreed to sell our souls to you, to keep up your reputation as the city ever awake.
So I would go out and look up at the sky, the only part of you I hoped would not feel like a cage, but I would be bedazzled by the strange red halo – the concoction of myriad versatile lights. Despite the lights, your skies looked utterly lifeless, desolate and abandoned, deserted by the life I longed to see, and that I was drained of. And despite this wild goose chase, I cannot find what I seek, it's simply too much – too much light to see the stars. Too many masks to see the person underneath.
City of night, flooded with golden lights, I once thought I couldn't get enough of you. How wrong I was.
Years I've spent blinded by your ersatz flash. Now I'd like my eyes back. I'd like my stars back.
Yours never,
A dreamer no more.
