With non-stop action and high-speed team play, hockey is a great sport for kids. Sometimes called "the fastest game on ice," it's a great way to get exercise, and with youth and adult programs throughout the country, chances are no matter what your child's age or skill level, there is a league near you to play in.
As fun as it is, though, hockey carries a very real risk of injury. To keep your kids as safe as possible, follow these tips.
At its highest levels, from high school to college to the NHL, hockey allows "checking," an action that involves a player colliding with an opposing player to stop his forward momentum. This can lead to numerous injuries from players hitting one another or colliding with the ice surface or the boards that line the rink. Even in so-called "no-check" leagues, there will always be a lot of contact. Falls are very common, and ice is just as hard as concrete to land on.
In addition, with every player carrying a stick and wearing sharpened skates, accidents are bound to occur. There's also a good chance that sooner or later kids will get hit by the puck, which is made of hard rubber and can leave a nasty bruise if it catches them in the wrong spot. And, since hockey involves strenuous physical activity, pulled muscles and sprains are a hazard for players who don't warm up and stretch properly.
Before kids start playing hockey, it's very important to get them all the right equipment and make sure they know how to put it on and use it correctly. Skates and a helmet are a good place to start, but there is a lot more they'll need to wear to keep themselves safe.
Never let your child play a game of hockey without:
Charged with putting their bodies between flying pucks and the goal, hockey goalies need a whole different set of equipment to keep themselves safe. Helmets, skates, neck guards and athletic protectors and cups are all different for goalies than they are for other positions.
In addition, goalies should always wear:
Everything kids do during a hockey game will be done while they are skating, so be sure they know how to skate well before they play a game. Most rinks offer learn-to-skate classes and open skating sessions when they can practice. Kids should know how to stop, turn, and get up when they fall. It's also helpful for them to know how to skate, stop, and turn while skating backwards.
Once you feel they're good enough skaters and they've got the proper equipment and know how to use it, they'll be ready to hit the ice. Before games, hockey players generally skate around the rink a few times to warm up. Kids should use this time to loosen their joints and stretch their muscles. Some skaters warm up and stretch before getting on the ice.
Important muscle groups to stretch before a game include:
There's a reason why tripping, hooking, slashing, high-sticking and cross-checking bring penalties. Hockey sticks can easily go from being a piece of equipment to being a dangerous weapon. Be sure that your kids know all the rules governing the use of sticks and follow them to the letter. You wouldn't want them to get hit by someone else's stick, and no one wants to get hit by theirs.
Other penalties designed to keep the game safe involve roughing, boarding, and checking from behind. These all have to do with players colliding with one another. If your kids' league allows checking, make sure they know the difference between a legal check and an illegal one, and be adamant that they never hit anyone from behind. If they play in a "no-check" league, it means just that: no checking.
As far as fighting is concerned, players in the NHL may throw off their gloves and start punching one another, but if your child does it, he or she can expect to pay a harsh penalty. Almost every youth league will kick players out of the game and suspend them for at least one more game for their first fighting penalty. They won't just be hurting themselves; they'll be letting their team down. Don't allow fighting of any kind.
Also, never let your kids play a game of hockey without adult supervision. Even if they follow every safety tip, accidents can still happen. There should always be a stocked first-aid kit and a responsible adult on hand in the event of an injury or other emergency. Likewise, be sure to have their games officiated by certified referees who are familiar with the specific rules of the league.
Playing a game of hockey with friends on a frozen pond can be lots of fun, but ponds present their own unique set of safety problems. An adult should always check the ice to make sure it's thick enough to support the weight of kids before they're allowed play, and they should stay away from any parts of the pond or lake where it looks like the ice may be thin. Tell your kids that if a puck goes in a suspect area, they should just let it go. They can always get another puck. It's not worth the risk of hypothermia or drowning for them to go after it.
Frozen ponds also go hand in hand with very cold temperatures. Be sure your kids wear plenty of warm clothing in addition to all their hockey gear anytime they play outdoors, and if they're playing on a sunny day, be sure they use sunscreen on their faces. The sun's rays reflecting off ice and snow can be very intense.
Now that you know the best ways to keep your kids safe, encourage them to get out there and hit the ice. Hockey is a great game that they'll want to play for as long as they can. Just remember that accidents and injuries can still occur no matter how prepared they are. Make sure your kids follow these tips, though, and you can minimize their risk significantly.

SNRIs work to increase the activity of
brain chemicals called serotonin and norepinephrine. Doctors do not know
exactly how this improves
chronic pain symptoms.
Serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) are used to treat certain types of chronic pain, especially nerve pain. They may be used to treat:
SNRIs can help some people who have chronic pain. They seem to work best for people who have chronic nerve pain and people who also have symptoms of depression.1
All medicines have side effects. But many people don't feel the side effects, or they are able to deal with them. Ask your pharmacist about the side effects of each medicine you take. Side effects are also listed in the information that comes with your medicine.
Here are some important things to think about:
Call 911 or other emergency services right away if you have:
Desvenlafaxine and venlafaxine
Call your doctor right away if you have:
Common side effects of these medicines include:
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects. (Drug Reference is not available in all systems.)
Never suddenly stop taking SNRIs. The use of any antidepressant should be tapered off slowly and only under the supervision of a doctor. Abruptly stopping antidepressant medicines can cause negative side effects or a relapse of your condition.
SNRIs are started at low doses, and the dose is increased gradually to reduce the severity of side effects. You may need regular blood tests to check the amount of the medicine in your blood. Too much of this type of medicine in the bloodstream can be dangerous.
Be sure to tell your doctor about all the medicines you are currently taking. Duloxetine and milnacipran can interact poorly with monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors (taken for depression and other mental health conditions). Examples of MAO inhibitors include phenelzine, selegiline, and tranylcypromine.
Duloxetine can affect blood sugar levels in people who have diabetes. If you notice that the results of your blood sugar tests are different than you expect, or if you have any questions, talk with your doctor.
Medicine is one of the many tools your doctor has to treat a health problem. Taking medicine as your doctor suggests will improve your health and may prevent future problems. If you don't take your medicines properly, you may be putting your health (and perhaps your life) at risk.
There are many reasons why people have trouble taking their medicine. But in most cases, there is something you can do. For suggestions on how to work around common problems, see the topic Taking Medicines as Prescribed.
If you are pregnant, breast-feeding, or planning to get pregnant, do not use any medicines unless your doctor tells you to. Some medicines can harm your baby. This includes prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, herbs, and supplements. And make sure that all your doctors know that you are pregnant, breast-feeding, or planning to get pregnant.
Follow-up care is a key part of your treatment and safety. Be sure to make and go to all appointments, and call your doctor if you are having problems. It's also a good idea to know your test results and keep a list of the medicines you take.

Anglican Communion
The Anglican Communion is a confederation of national churches, each considered independent, yet sharing Full Communion with one another and the Archbishop of Canterbury, who is the spiritual (although not administrative) head of the Communion. The Anglican Communion maintains the traditional three-fold hierarchy of clergy: Bishops, Priests and Deacons. In some member churches, women have been admitted to one or more of these orders, whereas some member churches have maintained an all-male clergy. Beyond the three-fold order the administration and leadership of each national church is decided by that particular church. In the Church of England, for example, the Queen appoints Bishops. In the Episcopal Church (USA), on the other hand, bishops are elected by diocese and then confirmed by the House of Bishops.
Of particular interest to Orthodox inquirers is the current Archbishop of Canterbury the Most Reverend and Right Honorable Rowan Williams, formerly Archbishop of Wales. Dr. Williams, an academic, has written two books on the spirituality of iconography (The Dwelling of the Light: Praying With Icons of Christ and Ponder These Things: Praying With Icons of the Virgin) and did his doctoral thesis on the theology of Orthodox theologian Vladimir Lossky.
Other major thinkers to come out of the Anglican Communion have been reformers John and Charles Wesley, convert to Roman Catholicism Cardinal John Henry Newman, social activist Archbishop Desmond Tutu, and authors Dorothy Sayers and C. S. Lewis.
Anglican Theology
Within Anglicanism there is a wide variety of theological thought. Some Anglicans would be comfortable under the general heading of "Protestant" whereas others would shun this title in favor of "Anglo-Catholic." In actuality, Anglicanism has had a remarkable ability to hold together people of varying views on many theological issues, some of them quite major. Bishop Kallistos (Ware) of Diokleia, himself a convert to Orthodoxy from Anglicanism, writes in The Orthodox Church that "There are individual Anglicans whose faith is virtually indistinguishable from that of an Orthodox; but there are others within the Anglican communion, on the extreme liberal wing, who openly repudiate fundamental elements in the doctrinal and moral teaching of Christianity" (p. 321).
Among the more "orthodox" or conservative Anglican voices have been author and apologist C. S. Lewis and Archbishop of Canterbury Michael Ramsey. On the other hand, Anglicanism has been the home of such extreme liberal theologians as Bishop John Spong, author of Why Christianity Must Change or Die.
All this being noted, however, there are a few things that can be said in a general way about Anglican beliefs.
First, Anglican doctrine in summed up in "the three historic creeds": The Nicene, The Apostles' ("The Roman Symbol") and the Athanasian Creed (or "Creed of St. Athanasius "). On advice from the Anglican-Orthodox Joint Doctrinal Commission, some national Churches have dropped the Filioque from the Nicene Creed in their liturgies, while others have not. The Church of England, for instance, maintains it in general, but it can be removed on occasions of ecumenical significance (such was the case at the entrhonement of Rowan Williams as Archbishop of Canterbury).
Second, the major doctrinal statement of Anglicanism has historically been the 39 Articles. A product of the English Reformation, the Articles are no longer binding on Anglicans, though many traditionalists hold very firmly to them. These, among other things, affirm a belief in the Trinity, the Incarnation and the Resurrection of Christ. Protestan influence on the articles led to the inclusion of Article VI: "Holy Scripture containeth all things necessary to salvation: so that whatsoever is not read therein, nor may be proved thereby, is not to be required of any man..." This same article, however, contains certain Old Testament books that were rejected by most Protestants at the Reformation, namely the deuterocanonical or "apocryphal" books. Calvinist influences can also be read in the Articles.
Unlike other Protestant bodies, Anglicanism has also maintained belief in the historic seven Sacraments as understood by the Western Church: Baptism, Eucharist, Confirmation, Penance, Holy Orders, Matrimony and Unction. However, the 39 Articles make the distinction between "two Sacraments ordained of Christ our Lord in the Gospel" (Baptism and Eucharist) and the other five, which it does not consider necessary.
A traditional means of explaining the way that Anglicans do theology has been called the "Three-Legged Stool". In this approach, Scripture, tradition and reason are the three ways in which Anglicans come to an understanding of the Truth. Classically, Anglicans would explain that Scripture is the prime authority, best interpreted in light of Christian tradition, in a reasonable way. However, the Anglican-Orthodox Joint Doctrinal Commission has stated, "We agree likewise in our view of the fundamental relationship between Scripture and tradition: they are not two sources, but correlative." (article 91)
Christianity reached England by the middle of the second century. As St. Bede relates in his Ecclesiastical History of the English People, in 156 a British King by the name of Lucius wrote to Eleutherus, bishop of Rome, asking to be made a Christian. (Bk 1, Chap 4) With the work of missionaries throughout the first few centuries AD, Christianity spread and took root.
In 596 Pope Gregory the Great decided to send a mission to the Anglo-Saxons in the British Isles. He chose a to send a group of Benedictine monks, under the leadership of St. Augustine of Canterbury (not to be confused with Augustine of Hippo). Augustine and his fellow monks arrived in Kent in 597 and eventually a see city was set up in Canterbury, Augustine being the first Archbishop. It is said that that when they arrived they were "carrying a silver cross and an image of Jesus Christ painted on a board, which thus became, so far as we know, 'Canterbury's first icon.'" (Lesser Feasts and Fasts p. 252)
With Augustine and those who came after him, the British Isles were slowly put under the authority of the Church of Rome. As with the rest of the Western Church, this authority increased over the next 500 years.
In the 16th century, as Western Continental Europe was struggling with the Protestant Reformation, the winds of change would eventually sweep England as well. However, as the Continental Reformation would begin in matters of religion and lead to matters of politics, the English Reformation would begin in matters of politics and end in matters of faith.
Member Churches
The national churches below are all self-governing members of the Anglican Communion. There are Anglicans in other countries, however. In these cases, the parishes are under the jurisdiction of one of the national churches. The "Primates" (head bishops) of each national church meet periodically to discuss matters of faith and discipline. In addition, every 10 years (1988, 1998, etc.) the Anglican bishops from around the world are gathered to Lambeth Palace (home of the Archbishop of Canterbury) for the "Lambeth Conference." The decisions of the Lambeth Conference are seen as advisory, not binding, on the member churches.

Anglican Schisms
Several times throughout the history of Anglicanism, there have been movements which led to schism. The various resulting bodies have maintained their Anglican heritage to differing degrees. Among these groups are the various Methodist churches, the Reformed Episcopal Church, the Anglican Catholic Church and the Anglican Church in America. Current debates within the Communion regarding the ordination of homosexuals and the church's blessing of same-sex unions threaten further schism.
Relationship with Orthodox Christians
Anglican/Orthodox Organizations
Largely through the initiative and work of Oxford Movement figure Father John Mason Neale, in 1863 there was formed the Anglican and Eastern Churches Association. This organization publishes a journal (Eastern Churches News Letter)and encourages interaction of Anglican and Orthodox Christians, particularly through encouraging pilgrimages. In 1928 an organization with similar goals, the Fellowship of St. Alban and St. Sergius was formed and also publishes a journal (Sobornost). In the 1960s an international commission of Orthodox and Anglican clergy and theologians entitled the Anglican-Orthodox Joint Doctrinal Commission was formed and has issued two historic statements which will be addressed below.
Agreed Statements
In the 1960s, largely through the ecumenical work of Archbishop of Canterbury Michael Ramsey and Patriarch Athenagoras (Spyrou) I of Constantinople, both the Anglican Communion and the Orthodox Churches established commissions to consider Anglican-Orthodox relations. Between 1973 and 1976 an "Anglican-Orthodox Joint Doctrinal Commission" met which led to the Moscow Agreed Statement which dealt with "the Knowledge of God, the Inspiration and Authority of Holy Scripture, Scripture and Tradition, the Authority of the Councils, the Filioque Clause, the Church as the Eucharistic Community, and the Invocation of the Holy Spirit in the Eucharist."
In 1984 the Commission again produced a joint docrinal work entitled the Dublin Agreed Statement. This one dealt with the Mystery of the Church, the Holy Trinity and worship and tradition.
It is the goal of the Commission to put together another report in 2006, which will include the all of the interim agreements that have been reached since 1989.
At the time of the first agreed statement, the hope of the Commission had been for the eventual reunion of the Anglican and Orthodox Churches. However, in between the two, a major development in Anglicanism changed the direction of the Commission. In 1978 both the Episcopal Church U.S.A. and the Lambeth Conference put forth positions accepting the ordination of women. This drastically changed the understanding of the Commission. Following the Lambeth Conference in 1978, it had now come to be seen, in the words of co-chairman Archbishop Athanagoras, "simply as an academic and informative exercise, and no longer as an ecclesial endeavour aiming at the union of the two churches."
As there is much theological variation within Anglicanism, Bishop Kallistos (Ware) of Diokleia has explained rightly when he writes, "The Orthodox Church, however deep its longing for reunion, cannot enter into closer relations with the Anglican communion until Anglicans themeselves are clearer about their own beliefs" (Ware, p. 321).

Just about everyone has trouble concentrating or paying attention in class from time to time. But for teens with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), these things can cause problems at school and in other areas of life. Medicines can help people with ADHD stay more focused and follow instructions better.
People with ADHD often act and think a little differently. They may get distracted easily. They may feel bored a lot, lose things, say or do whatever is on their mind without thinking, and interrupt when other people are talking.
Medicines can help people with ADHD concentrate and focus better and be less hyperactive and impulsive. ADHD medications work by increasing the levels of brain chemicals called neurotransmitters. Neurotransmitters help send messages between nerve cells in the brain.
There are two main kinds of ADHD medications: stimulants and non-stimulants.
Doctors work closely with people who have ADHD to figure out which medicine will be most helpful. Because everyone's different, doctors might try a couple of medicines before finding the one that works best.
Some teens need a combination of medicines. They might need both a stimulant and a non-stimulant at the same time to get the best results.
Most experts agree that ADHD medicines are safe and work well when they are used under a psychiatrist's or other doctor's care. ADHD medications have helped teens with ADHD in all sorts of areas, even helping reduce things like substance abuse, injuries, and automobile accidents. ADHD medicines also can help people have better relationships at home and with friends.
But stimulants can cause some serious health problems if they're not used properly. ADHD medicines can cause problems when:
When stimulant-type ADHD medications are used at doses that are too high (in other words, when they're abused), a person can have problems like:
Overdosing on ADHD medications also can cause these problems:
ADHD medications have the potential to become addictive if they aren't used exactly as the doctor instructs. Because people who abuse ADHD medicines can get addicted to them, there are laws against sharing ADHD medications with other people. People with ADHD who take their medicines as they're supposed to are not likely to get addicted to their medicine.
People used to worry that someone using medicines to treat ADHD might be more likely to abuse drugs or alcohol. That hasn't proved to be true. In fact, research has shown that people with ADHD who use their medicines properly may actually be less likely to abuse alcohol and other drugs.
Researchers are constantly working to develop new medicines for ADHD. But taking medicine is just one part of an ADHD treatment plan. Treatment plans usually also include therapy and adjustments in school and at home to help people learn and build skills that will help them throughout life.

Like surfing down a frozen white wave, snowboarding is a great way for kids to have fun and get exercise during those cold winter months. It's relatively easy to learn, and it can take them to some of the most spectacular places on Earth.
But snowboarding can also present some very real dangers, from frostbite and sunburn to blown knees and head injuries. Have your kids follow these safety tips to learn how to stay safe on the slopes.
Snowboarding involves moving at very high speeds down steep hills past other skiers and boarders, as well as natural and man-made obstacles. Falls, some of the spectacular variety, are going to happen, regardless of how good a boarder your child may be, and collisions are relatively common. Also, since snowboarding takes place at high altitudes in the winter, the weather can range from sunny and bright to bitterly cold, with conditions changing rapidly from one slope to the next and from one hour to the next.
The skier and snowboarder safety code, which is printed on virtually every lift ticket and posted in numerous places around every ski area, lists some of the "inherent dangers and risks of skiing [and snowboarding], including: changing weather conditions; existing and changing snow conditions; bare spots, rocks, stumps, trees; collisions with natural objects, manmade objects, or other skiers; variations in terrain; and the failure of skiers to ski within their own abilities." That's a pretty fair assessment of some of the dangers kids will encounter while snowboarding.
Before your kids venture out to the slopes, it's very important for them to have the right gear and know how to use it. In addition to a snowboard and boots, they will also need warm clothing, protective eyewear and helmets intended specifically for snowboarding or skiing.
Here's a list of what kids should bring each time they head up the mountain:
As anyone who has snowboarded on a cold day can tell you, it's no fun if you don't have enough warm clothing. Likewise, on hot days having too many clothes can make kids sweat, which will lead to them getting cold when the sun dips behind a cloud or the mountains. The best way to tackle this situation is to have kids dress in layers that they can shed or put on depending on the temperature.
Here's a rundown on what sort of clothes they should wear when they snowboard to avoid hypothermia and frostbite:
While kids should always have the gear and clothing mentioned above, here are a number of other items they might want to consider bringing with them when they snowboard.
One of the most effective ways to prevent injuries while snowboarding is to make sure your kids are in good shape before they go. Stronger muscles will not only help them maintain control, they'll also make boarding more fun. If you know your kids will be hitting the slopes in the winter, make sure they get regular exercise in the summer and fall. They'll be glad they did. And make sure they warm up and stretch before they start snowboarding.
When you get to the ski resort, if your kids have never boarded before — or even if they have — sign them up for snowboard lessons. Even the best athletes in the world can't board on their own the first time out. The best way to learn is from a trained instructor certified by the Professional Ski Instructors of America (PSIA). Private lessons will give kids the most one-on-one time with an instructor, but less-expensive group lessons work very well too and are an opportunity to make some new friends.
One major difference between snowboarding and skiing is that kids will be facing sideways when they board. This creates a blind spot behind them. Let them know that they should always be aware of who or what is around them at all times, and they should be certain there are no other boarders, skiers, or obstacles in their blind spot before they make a heel-edge turn.
This is particularly important for beginner snowboarders. It can be hard for them to take their focus off the slope ahead to make sure it's safe to turn, but it is vital that they make the effort each and every time they do.
So, your kids are in shape, they've got all the right equipment and clothing, and they've taken a few lessons. They're finally ready to go boarding on their own.
There are still a few important things for them to remember to keep themselves safe, though:

Direct investments in European real estate loans—are they crazy? Like a fox, apparently.
Reuters reports that the head of PIMCO's mortgage credit portfolio management team says the firm is targeting direct commercial real estate investments and nonsecuritized loans, which carry greater risk but higher return potential.
The news service notes that PIMCO's Dan Ivascyn believes the move by banks around the world to offload some of their debt has created opportunity to buy up unrated loans.
"Some of the more complex, illiquid areas are where we still think there is considerable value," Ivascyn said.
The hunt for yield and stable cash-flow streams have translated into strong returns on everything from "junk" bonds to commercial mortgage-backed securities.
Returns from investments in commercial mortgage-backed securities and other higher-yield securities have come down significantly, pushing some money managers "farther afield."
For example, Reuters cites AAA-rated U.S. commercial mortgage-backed securities, which are secured by loans on commercial properties and have a current yield that takes into account worst-case scenarios of about 2.4%, after returning 11% last year, according to data provided by Angel Oak Capital.
"Additionally, the Bank of America Merrill Lynch US High Yield Master II index—an index of U.S. junk bonds—had a return of 15.6% last year, but is up just 2.7% so far this year."
Reuters concludes that Ivascyn sees opportunities in direct investments in commercial real estate such as malls or office buildings and nonperforming loans, or loans for which payments are past due or potentially in default.

Allow me to extend a sincere thank you to everyone who submitted entries and a special thank you to Kalyn for dreaming up this fantastic food blogging event. If you find any omissions or errors in the round-up, then please email me, and I'll make the corrections as soon as possible. So, get ready to get hungry!
Anna of Anna's Cool Finds kicks off this week's Weekend Herb Blogging with her lovely Ginger-Scented Orange Roughy and Sesame Ponzu Pouring Sauce. Anna informs us that in addition to being remarkably flavorful, ginger boasts many medicinal qualities. From relieving arthritis pain to reducing cholesterol, ginger is the miracle herb indeed! So, head over to Anna's to learn more about ginger and to get her delicious recipe.
Ilva of Lucullian Delights features one of summer's most delicious vegetables: eggplant. Her Very Herby Roasted Eggplants , made with a medley of savory herbs, is a perfect example of Ilva's fresh and flavorful Italian cuisine. Which, reminds me... Ilva would like to know if you are interested in reading about Italian cuisine and cookbooks on her blog (YES, we are!), so make sure you drop by her place and let her know what you think.
Myriam of Once Upon a Tart shares a simply splendid sauce with us: Cinnamon-Plum Compote with Raspberries. This compote made from zwetschge (German for damson plums) is not only simple to make (under 10 minutes) but also versatile. Myriam suggests serving it with cake, ice cream, yogurt, or rice pudding. Once you see her beautiful photos, you'll be running out the door for some zwetschge. And should you stub your toe in your hurry, you can yell, "zwetschge," since it's also Myriam's favorite swear word. Honest. Would I make that up?
Patricia of Technicolor Kitchen offers us her savory Vegetable Crepes with Cottage Filling. Made with non-fat milk and cottage cheese, Patricia proves that food can be both delicious and low-calorie. So, go ahead and indulge on these crepes and still look fabulous in your bathing suit. If you weren't already convinced about making this tasty recipe, Patricia admits that the crepes were so good, she even ate some cold leftover ones later in the day. So, what are you waiting for? Scoot over to Patricia's for this low-in-fat but high-in-flavor recipe!
Alanna of A Veggie Venture offers her kickin' Cowboy Coleslaw. Don't worry if you don't own any cowboy boots; you can still make this kid (and adult) friendly colewslaw with carrots, red cabbage, green onions, and sunflower seeds. If you're watching your weight, then Alanna suggests omitting the sunflower seeds. I think nutty, crunchy sunflower seeds in this slaw would warrant an extra 10 minutes on the elliptical; don't you? Now, get a move on' to Alanna's for more helpful nutritional information about this festive and flavorful coleslaw!
Glenna of A Fridge Full of Food tempts us with her Apple Brown Betty, a comforting dessert that is a cross between apple crisp and bread pudding. Who wouldn't love that? Plus, Glenna assures us that it's simple to make and just light enough for a summertime treat. Make sure you visit Glenna and read her engaging post about how pop culture influences our choices in food (think Carmela's ricotta pie from The Soprano's); you'll leave both entertained and hungry!
Tigerfish of Teczcape offers us her Steamed Herbal Chicken made with a Chinese herbal pack, honey dates, and wolfberries. Tigerfish edifies us with an explanation of six different Chinese herbs including a type of lotus, a lily bulb, and, my personal favorite, Dioscorea Opposita (pronounced huai-shan in Mandarin), a type of yam that has ANTI-AGING properties! Yup, that's right. So, make Tigerfish's herbal chicken for its savory authentic Chinese flavors and look younger too. What more could you ask for?
Elizabeth of Blog from OUR Kitchen offers a mouth-watering Focaccia with Rosemary and Onions. I'm warning you: don't go to her site if you're starving. If you choose to ignore my warning, then expect to run to the market for yeast, rosemary, and onions, because you'll be making Elizabeth's focaccia for dinner. She kindly offers us detailed yet easy-to-follow instructions for both thinner and thicker focaccias. I personally think the thicker the better, but head over to Elizabeth's to decide for yourself.
Kevin of Closet Cooking presents elegant Grilled Lamb Chops in a Red Currant and Rosemary Sauce, which was inspired by Kalyn's Grilled Lamb Chops with Garlic, Rosemary, and Thyme (yes, the very same Kalyn who started WHB). Since so many currant recipes are for desserts, it's a pleasure to have Kevin's savory recipe. So, check out your local market for fresh currants, which are currently in season, and try Kevin's recipe next time you want a special meal.
Simona of briciole presents an authentic Italian Panzanella. Like Simona says, panzanella is "fundamentally a way of dressing up stale bread, but I like my father's recipe the best." And you will too. Simona reminisces about her childhood summers spent in Poggio Catino, her father's native village in Sabina, north of Rome. It's an evocative post that will make you yearn for some of Simona's tomato-soaked panzanella (that's her secret) and for some leisure time in Poggio Catino.
Kalyn of Kalyn's Kitchen, and creator of Weekend Herb Blogging, offers us her nutritious and delicious Sauteed Radishes with Vinegar and Herbs. Although Kalyn has the dubious honor of being the aunt who might bring "wierd" food to family-get-togethers, she risks her reputation with this fragrant, herby, sauteed radish dish. Who could blame her? Ever since making Roasted Radishes with Soy Sauce and Toasted Sesame Seeds, Kalyn has been hooked on the taste of cooked radishes, and so will you when you try her recipes.
Sheela of Quick and Easy Recipes: Delectable Victuals presents a lovely summertime Tortellini with Fresh Herbs, made with home-grown herbs. If you're like me, you'll long to take a walk through Sheela's redolent herb garden after you read her post. Though Sheela's vegetarian version calls for mock chicken sausage and tofurkey kielbasa, she also recommends substituting red meat, if you prefer. With heaps of fresh herbs, olives, sun-dried tomatoes, and tortellini, this is one pasta dish that surely won't have any leftovers for lunch the next day!
Pam of The Backyard Pizzeria presents a sophisticated Smoked Salmon, Capers, Red Onion, and Avocado Pizza Topped with Fresh Rocket and Sour Cream. Pam was inspired to make this creation after a recent trip to Perth in Western Australia. While there, she was lucky enough to stay in an apartment within walking distance to The Pizza Palace, which offered "20 mouth-watering pizzas." After reading Pam's delicious post, you might need to go to Expedia to check on flights to Western Australia.
Zorra of Kochtopf shares her delicious recipe for Penne with Courgette and Bread Crumbs. This is one of those pasta dishes that is beautiful in its simplicity and remarkably fresh flavor. Zorra's addition of toasted breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan (which makes this a winner) enhance the zucchini and onions in the dish. And if you're feeling up for a little challenge, then visit Zorra's site to see if you'll be able to identify her mystery herb.
Pille of Nami-Nami generously shares two scrumptious recipes featuring zucchini blossoms: Zucchini Blossom Fritters and Zucchini Blossom Frittata. Pille clearly has a green thumb: she has already picked her freshly grown strawberries and is awaiting tomatoes and baby beetroots. It's her zucchini, however, that is thriving, providing her with a bounty of delicate, delicious zucchini blossoms. (I must admit I have a weakness for zucchini blossoms and get giddy at the thought of having a garden full of them!) So, check out Pille's zucchini blossoms. You'll be glad you did!
Charise of more bread and cheese, please! offers a flavorful Horseradish Potato Salad just in time for summer picnics and bbq's. This recipe, made with light mayo, horseradish, chives, and a touch of sugar is a welcome twist on traditional potato salad. Also, did you know that horseradish isn't hot until it is grated or ground? Don't believe me? Then head over to Charise's to learn more about horseradish (and about her wild canoeing adventures).
Burcu of Almost Turkish Recipes presents a beautiful Baked Ratatouille inspired by Remy of the new Disney-Pixar film Ratatouille. With summer vegetables such as zucchini and tomatoes and a medley of herbs including basil, oregano, parsley, and dill, Burcu has created a delightful summertime dish that is sure to please. And be sure to check out Burcu's post for more stunning photos.
Katie of Thyme for Cooking shares an innovative recipe for Lettuce Soup. With a bounty of red and green romaine lettuce from her garden, Katie was inspired to make this soup, which also includes shallots, tarragon, sour cream, and bacon. One of the reasons she has so much fresh lettuce is because she never wants to find herself stuck in an area where the markets offer only wilted, over-ripe produce. And who could disagree with that? Plus, be sure to read Katie's post to learn about the many nutritional benefits of lettuce.
Peter of Kalofagas--In Pursuit of Delicious Foods presents a unique version of Zucchini Carpaccio with Mulberries. Thankfully for us, Peter overcame his concern about presenting another zucchini carpaccio recipe, and offers a unique version with fresh mulberries, crumbled Manouri cheese, lemon juice, and fresh thyme. Peter is especially fortunate in that he has his own mulberry tree from which to pluck fresh berries for this recipe (that is, if the birds don't get to them first). After seeing this recipe, you may want to ask Peter for his address.
Sarah of What Smells So Good? serves up a slice of her savory Sun-Dried Tomato and Olive Bread, made with fresh basil and asiago cheese. Could there be a better combination for bread? Seriously. Though you may be well aware of basil's culinary uses, read Sarah's informative post to learn about its medicinal qualities as well as storage tips to keep your basil fresh and fragrant.
Sarina of Trinigourmet offers her Afghani Fried Brown Rice, an aromatic and savory alternative to plain fried rice. Sarina's fried rice is made with Ras-Al-Hanout (a fragrant medley of Moroccan seasonings) and fresh bay leaves plucked from a tree in her own yard. In addition to being a staple herb in many countries, bay leaf has a rich history: For instance, did you know that Roman laurels were made from bay leaves? For more interesting tidbits about this herb, read Sarina's engaging post. Oh, and don't forget to remove the bay leaf before eating the rice; though it won't kill you, as Sarina's straight-shooting West Indian mom says, "yuh stupid enough to eat it? :)"
Amy of Nook and Pantry generously offers two sandwiches that are guaranteed to elevate your ordinary picnic fare to extraordinary: A French Ham and Butter Sandwich and a Salami, Pastrami, and Spinach Cream Cheese Sandwich. If you make the ham and butter sandwich, then heed Amy's warning: "don't you dare use 'I can't believe it's not butter' because I can believe it, and it's not butter. ;)" As for the second sandwich, Amy prefers Philadelphia cream cheese, for its velvety smoothness. If you aren't already running into your kitchen to whip up these sandwiches, then run over to Amy's to view more of her appetizing photos. You'll want to take a big bite as soon as you see them!
Anna of Morsels and Musings shares a splendid post about the avocado, which is the featured ingredient in her Soupe d'Avocat Abidjanaise (Abidjan Avocado Soup). This soup is a popular recipe from Côte d'Ivoire and marks the 39th country from which Anna has cooked and posted recipes. Kudos, Anna! In addition to a fascinating description of Côte d'Ivoire culture, Anna offers an engaging write-up about avocados that will certainly surprise you. For instance, remarkably, the Aztecs believed that avocados were an aphrodisiac and during harvest season kept virgins indoors to prevent promiscuous behavior! Intrigued? Then visit Anna for more interesting musings.
Sarah of Avenue Food will convince you to give tofu a try with her Mom's Tofu Salad. Sarah, who loves, loves, loves her tofu, laments, "I just don't understand why some people dislike the stuff so much, they can't help but roll their eyes at the very mention of the word." (As a tofu lover myself, I know what she means). But, if you make Sarah's tofu salad, which includes tuna, watercress, and a sesame oil-soy sauce dressing, you too may become a tofu devotee. Whether or not you love tofu, be sure to read Sarah's engaging post, which I promise you will love.
Chris from Melecotte presents her aromatic Sun-Dried Tomato Thyme Muffins, featuring her garden-grown thyme. A self-ascribed "green thumb in training," Chris has been spending a lot of time in Home Depot Landscape and in her garden, and we get to reap the benefits with this savory recipe. Be sure to read Chris's post about thyme: she provides indispensible planting, culinary, and storage tips. And if you're feeling timid about something, make Chris's muffins in a hurry because thyme is known to boost strength and courage. Even the Lion on his way to Oz nibbled some, so you know it works!
Ulrike from Kuchenlatein offers an elegant Lavender Sugar that is a breeze to make. Though lavender is usually associated with perfumes, sachets, and cosmetics, Ulrike reminds us that is has culinary purposes as well. Wondering what to do with your fragrant lavender sugar? Ulrike says, "you can pass the sugar through a strainer to remove the buds or leave them in when you use it to sweeten tea, to make lavender ice cream or lavender crème brulée." Oh, and make sure you check out Ulrike's post for a second recipe for refreshing lavender lemonade.
Haalo from Cook (Almost) Anything at Least Once is excited to share her Sauteed Mushrooms with Fresh Wasabi. I will admit that I got excited by Haalo's post too. Did you know that fresh wasabi is an aquatic plant and should be stored in a glass of water in your fridge? Be sure to visit Haalo to learn more about this intriguing ingredient and to view her stunning photos. This is one truly eye-catching entry!
Sue from Coffee and Cornbread stays cool with her refreshing Lemon Mint Iced Tea. As a Virginian, Sue loves her iced tea and makes many varieties. This time around, she has chosen to use peppermint, though she says most any type of mint will work. Sue has made many a thirsty houseguest happy with a glass of her tea, and you will be too when you whip up a batch. So check out Sue's blog for the recipe.
Emily of Superspark will definitely make you salivate for a piece of her savory Tomato Pie. Trying to re-create a pie that she relished years ago in college, Emily writes, "Think layers of sweet, ripe tomato slices with fresh basil, gooey cheese, and a warm biscuity crust and you'll start to understand the simple, rustic allure of tomato pie." Are you hungry yet? (I am.) Then, check out Emily's post for more appetizing photos and tips on how to make this comforting, rustic pie.
Genie from The Inadvertent Gardener offers an innovative recipe: Warm Green Tomato and Apricot Salad. What do you do when you discover that your unripe tomato plant is drooping beyond salvation and you have an "an inadvertent harvest" of green tomatoes? You use your creativity, like Genie did. Inspired by Kalyn's Caprese Salad with Apricots, Genie decided to make a warm salad of green tomatoes, apricots, mozzarella, and basil. The result? A beautifully colorful and zesty lunch that "fired up her tastebuds" and will fire up yours too!
Another Outspoken Female from Confessions of a Food Nazi presents an exotic entry: A Balinese Inspired Fish Curry with Curry Paste. Curmuca longa, or fresh turmeric, is the star among stars in this wonderfully aromatic and flavorful dish. Inspired by a recent class in Balinese cooking, this Outspoken Female blends ingredients such as kaffir lime leaves, tamarind, lemongrass, and galangal to create an authentic curry. After reading this post, you may have to take a trip to Melbourne for some fresh turmeric, but that wouldn't be so bad, would it?
Sher from What Did You Eat? would convert even the most staunch carnivore into a vegetable lover with her Eggplant and Goat Cheese Sandwiches with Tomato Tarragon Sauce. I mean come on, take another look at them--aren't they just mouth-watering? And if you're trying to get your kids, or anyone else for that matter, to eat their veggies, then tell them you've made Whoopie Pies for dinner. That's what Sher likes to call them, and you will too! So, go ahead, and make some Whoopie. Pies, that is.
Wendy from A Wee Bit of Cooking presents her fiery Thai Green Curry Paste used in her Thai Green Chicken Curry. Wendy warns that if you are a "chilli wimp" like she is, "the following paste is seriously potent stuff. My head almost exploded when I foolishly dipped my finger into my homemade green curry paste and tasted it. Wow! It was hot!" Well, Wendy, you don't scare me. (OK, well not that much.) I'm more than ready to try Wendy's delicious curry paste, which includes lemongrass, coriander, and lime juice. By the way, if you've got a soft spot for dogs, really adorable dogs, then run over to Wendy's to check out pics of some of her canine friends.
John from Top Chef John Mundell offers us his savory Marinated Portobello Mushrooms. After marinating the mushrooms overnight in a mixture of garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, basil, vegetable oil, and plenty of cracked black pepper, John slowly cooks them to buttery soft perfection. Though he uses them in any number of dishes, John really likes to stuff them with goat cheese and sun-dried tomato, then fold them in spring roll paper and fry until golden. Sound tempting? Want to see what it looks like? Then visit John's site, and while you're there, learn more about cooking with delicious and nutritious portobellos.
Y from blog.lemonpi.net (in Australia) is making me yearn for winter with a fabulous Roast Pumpkin and Chickpea Salad with Tahini Sauce. With ingredients such as cinnamon, allspice, and Dukkah, Y's dish is upscale comfort food at its best.

Ceviz from Only Turkish Food offers a traditional Turkish recipe: Bulgur Pilav. Ceviz tells us, "Bulgur is a traditional ingredient for making pilav or pilaf in Turkey (burghul in Arabic). Turkish often accompany main meals with pilav either of rice or bulgur." Fortunately, you don't have to be Turkish to enjoy Ceviz's wholesome, satisfying pilav. As she says, "it goes well with food from other kitchens." She's right about that. If you're like me and love bulgur, then you simply must visit Ceviz's site to read her cooking tips for making the perfect pilav, including how to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of your pan. Her newfound secret--a rice cooker.
Sharon of Bird Food presents a lovely and light Tomato, Basil, and Feta Cheese Bruschetta over Salmon. It will come as no surprise that Sharon, who is Italian, LOVES her basil. (I know what you mean, Sharon!) And who wouldn't love this dish? Made with Genovese basil and Roma tomatoes, this is a little taste of Italy right in your own home. Plus, it's easy to prepare, which leaves you with plenty of time to enjoy the lazy days of summer.
Karen from Family Style Food (a native Rhode Islander like me), is enjoying her herb garden while sipping on her fragrant Lavender Lemonade. Inspired by the redolence of her lavender plants, she was deciding if she should make something like panna cotta or shortbread cookies, but since today is hot in St. Louis, Karen (smart cookie that she is) decided to go with lavender lemonade. So, stay cool by checking out Karen's post for the details.
For our final entry this week, I, Food Blogga, humbly present my Wild Rocket (Wild Arugula) Pasta. Inspired by the fabulous Jamie Oliver, I promise you that this recipe will elicit praise from your guests. And the best part is, it only takes minutes to make. But, don't tell that to your guests. Once they've tasted it, they'll think you've slaved all day!

Miss Nellie had a little love themed birthday party this weekend. I don't think you can ever go wrong with love themed. We tamed our party group to a small bunch and noticed how much better she did. A bit shy and easily overwhelmed, we were so happy to see her all smiles and owning her turf, even if she did end up wanting to ditch her friends for the babies. Always.
Romper: Etsy shop Rae Gun
Pictures make things look pretty and more time-consuming than they are. Really, this was a very simple party to put together. Got paper doilies? You're all set. We taped and strung paper doilies everywhere, adding them to bagged lunches, take-home treat sacks and yarn lines tied between trees.
Martinelli's apple juices: Costco. Eyelet skirts, courtesy of hot glue gun.
One easy craft: Valentine Flower Pots
We used $0.79 terra cotta pots–spray-painted white–which the girls painted (lay out some paintbrushes, a plate full of paint colors, a glass of water to clean brushes and baby wipes to clean hands) and added some lace embellishments (they brushed on Tacky Glue to adhere them). Pop in some pretty impatiens, and voila.
The kids took care of everything else.
Foam board painted with target; we used Hershey's kisses to throw as "darts"
Parties usually end in our driveway, and I love it. A mess of trikes and bikes, sandals slapping fast against cement, little girls giggling as they chase each others' bike trails, toddlers pulling wagons three times their size, mamas set up in beach chairs and the unspoken understanding that the party might be over but please, stay as long as you'd like.
Seems to be the year of the boy in our group. Ours will soon join these two new little loves, Thomas and Johnny Mac.
Nella sat in the driveway and fed her baby strawberries for quite a while.
…but ended up fascinated with new presents.
A pretend butterfly that realistically flutters in a jar…
…and a new bubble blowin' car.
Oh, and for the record…
…I still got it.
Our weekend has nicely contrasted that of so many others' in the country. I've loved seeing picturesque snow scenes on IG and hearing of cold cozy nights back home up north. I miss it but can't deny the fact that our weather has been completely enjoyable lately–warm but breezy, plenty of blue skies and nights with open windows and happy cricket sounds.
And now we wait for baby.

The American College announced Wednesday that it is launching a new designation for financial professionals, the Financial Services Certified Professional (FSCP). The new designation will replace the Life Underwriter Training Council Fellow (LUTCF) designation, which focused on insurance sales.
The new designation will focus on comprehensive planning instead of selling products, although The American College noted it does retain some sales advice. It enhances the LUTCF designation with more detailed content on topics like social media, health care and divorce planning.
"Financial services professionals need to master more skills and knowledge than ever before," Dr. Larry Barton, president and CEO of The American College, said in a statement. "We've designed FSCP to appeal to independent advisors, wealth managers, insurance specialists, registered reps and other financial professionals who want to be better at what they do."
Barton added that advisors who complete American College designations can increase their productivity by as much as 72%.
Advisors can begin working toward the FSCP designation in 2014. To obtain it, advisors must complete 10 elective educational units, an eight-week live webinar course and pass a supervised exam in a testing center. To maintain the designation, advisors must meet ethics-related CE requirements every two years.
Advisors can take courses in classrooms, live and asynchronous online classes, and in self-paced modules, according to The American College.
"By moving from a moderator-led format to one that emphasizes online learning, students can study at their own pace but also immerse themselves in case studies, video scenarios and discussion options regarding what is most suitable for a client, rather than what is 'the best sale,'" Barton said.
"The CFP designation is designed to provide deep technological knowledge for experienced advisors, but the FSCP designation is primarily for newer advisors," Jack Hondros, chief marketing officer for The American College, told ThinkAdvisor on Thursday. "It offers good knowledge and strong selling skills, but for a broader array of advisors."
Advisors who already hold the LUTCF designation can complete the practical portion of the course to obtain the new designation instead of completing the entire course, but Hondros noted that they would "have to relinquish the old designation. The underlying knowledge is the same and we don't want to mislead the public with a lot of designations."
Update: Article has been revised to include comments from Jack Hondros.

text: Friday, November 02, 2012 CMS Releases Calendar Year 2013 Final Rule for Outpatient Hospital Services On November 1, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) issued its Calendar Year (CY) 2013 final rule for the outpatient prospective payment system (OPPS). In the rule, CMS clarifies that it was not the intent of the agency in the CY 2012 OPPS final rule to establish different requirements for critical access hospitals (CAHs) and for OPPS hospitals for the same services. Therefore, physical therapy, speech therapy, and occupational therapy services that are paid under the OPPS are subject to the direct supervision requirements in 42 CFR § 410.27, whether they are furnished in OPPS hospitals or CAHs. The physical therapy, speech therapy, and occupational therapy services that are not paid under the OPPS and are paid instead under the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule are not subject to the direct supervision requirements in § 410.27, whether they are furnished in OPPS hospitals or in CAHs. As previously discussed in the proposed rule CMS has implemented the Medicare Part A to Part B Rebilling (AB Rebilling) Demonstration, which allows participating hospitals to receive 90% of the allowable Part B payment for Part A short-stay claims that are denied on the basis that the inpatient admission was not reasonable and necessary. Participating hospitals can rebill these denied Part A claims under Part B and be paid for additional Part B services that would usually be payable when an inpatient admission is deemed not reasonable and necessary. This demonstration is slated to last for 3 years, from CY 2012 through CY 2014. In the proposed rule, CMS discussed that when a Medicare beneficiary arrives at a hospital in need of medical or surgical care, the physician or other qualified practitioner must decide whether to admit the beneficiary for inpatient care or treat him or her as an outpatient. In some cases, when the physician admits the beneficiary and the hospital provides inpatient care, a Medicare claims review contractor, such as the Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC), the Recovery Audit Contractor (RAC), or the Comprehensive Error Rate Testing (CERT) Contractor, determines that inpatient care was not reasonable and necessary and denies the hospital inpatient claim for payment. In these cases, Medicare allows hospitals to rebill a separate inpatient claim for only a limited set of Part B services, referred to as "Inpatient Part B" or "Part B Only" services. The hospital also may bill Medicare Part B for any outpatient services that were provided in the 3-day payment window prior to the admission. Hospitals have expressed concern that this policy provides inadequate payment for resources that they have expended to take care of the beneficiary in need of medically necessary hospital care, although not necessarily at the level of inpatient care. Hospitals have indicated that often they do not have the necessary staff (for example, utilization review staff or case managers) on hand after normal business hours to confirm the physician's decision to admit the beneficiary. Thus, for a short-stay admission, the hospital may be unable to complete a timely review and change a beneficiary's patient status from inpatient to outpatient prior to discharge. In the proposed rule, CMS indicates that hospitals appear to be responding to the financial risk of admitting Medicare beneficiaries for inpatient stays that may later be denied upon contractor review by electing to treat beneficiaries as outpatients receiving observation services, often for longer periods of time, rather than admitting them as inpatients. CMS received approximately 350 public comments, including those from APTA, in response to its solicitation in the proposed rule regarding possible policy alternatives to remedy the issue of Medicare Part A inpatient admissions and observation stays paid under Medicare Part B. Stakeholders urged CMS not to adopt a final policy regarding patient status in this final rule but instead develop an informed course of action in the upcoming months through a formal, ongoing dialogue with all interested stakeholders. A few stakeholders recommended immediate action to limit beneficiary liability for SNF care when the 3-day qualifying hospital stay is subsequently denied and for the difference in beneficiary cost-sharing between hospital inpatient and outpatient services. In the final rule, CMS summarizes the feedback received in response to the solicitation in the proposed rule but does not provide responses to the public comments. CMS states that it strictly solicited public comments, and did not propose any changes in policy. CMS states that it will consider the feedback received from the public in its future policymaking. APTA will post a summary of the final rule on its website shortly. Comments ?? Wow. Clear as mud, as usual for CMS. Posted by Sara Ehlert, PT on 11/2/2012 8:58 PM

Appery.io has introduced new team productivity features and new UI components, specifically, Panel, YouTube, and Vimeo widgets designed to improve the user experience.
The product itself is positioned as a mobile platform that offers a cloud-based rapid development environment with integrated backend services and a rich catalog of API plug-ins.
"We recently surpassed 100,000 registered developers," stated Fima Katz, CEO of Appery.io. "Team leaders can add and/or remove team members by sharing user seats. All users need to do is subscribe to additional user seats and share them with temporary or permanent team members. Users can share their total allocation of projects (depending on their plan) across their team; and because the projects are cloud based, also easily collaborate in real time."
With Secure REST, Appery.io has added an extra level of security to applications that call REST APIs. In this use case, secure REST enables users to store the API keys and other secrets in Appery.io's Cloud Database so they are not exposed to the client.
API calls from user apps will flow through the firm's server which acts as a proxy. This capability also enables users to change API keys without having to redistribute the application.
YouTube and Vimeo Controls Appery.io's updates allow developers to embed videos in their apps by simply dragging and dropping a YouTube or Vimeo widget onto their project using the Appery.io App Builder.
Appery.io has also added support for jQuery Mobile 1.4 to improve app performance and Xcode 5 for iOS7 optimization.
