TCP pollutants
1, 2, 3 – TCP: California's Response to a Persistent Pollutant Could Help Other States
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has identified 1, 2, 3 – Trichloropropane (TCP), which does not occur naturally in the environment, as an emerging chemical of concern that can threaten drinking water supplies. It states that TCP is a persistent pollutant in groundwater and has classified it as "likely to be carcinogenic to humans." California State Water Board member Steven Moore called TCP an "insidious chemical" because it persists in the environment, sinks in water and is harmful in even tiny doses. Currently, there is no federal maximum contamination level (MCL) for TCP; however, there is a federal non-enforceable health-based screening level of 0.00075 ug/L.
Since 2012, TCP has been on the emerging Contaminant Candidate List (CCL), which is a watch list of unregulated contaminants that are known to, or anticipated to, occur in public water systems and may require regulation under the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). The EPA has required, under the Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR), that large water systems test for TCP every five years with a minimum reporting level of 0.03 μg/L. This rule allows for the EPA to monitor contaminants suspected to be in drinking water that are unregulated under the SDWA. As a result of the testing, TCP has been identified across the US in drinking water sources. Currently, there is no federal maximum contamination level (MCL) for TCP; there is a federal non-enforceable health-based screening level of 0.00075 ug/L.
The author continues the paper with an examination of what TCP is and how it impacts our environment and our health. She then discusses regulatory policies and how California's mandatory TCP standard could be a blueprint for other state water agencies currently investigating how to enhance their own drinking water protections from emerging contaminants.
Lyn covers some of the legal aspects, risks to businesses, detection, and treatment options to conclude her white paper. She also provides plenty of resources to start the journey toward sustainable treatment solutions that communities can afford.

He stopped saying I love you for two days now, and he is not that sweet for two days now. He doesn't even answer my calls, he keeps saying he is busy.. I'm afraid that he will find somebody to talk with that will make him happy and relaxed. Even good night has been very hard for him to send me. I want to send him messages that will make him reply to me and put him in a good mood and sweetness with me. I just hope he still loves me?

1.4 My boyfriend went to a business trip. The journey was a 13hrs drive. I never slept thinking about him and I texted him so many messages telling him how I have lost sleep. He never replied any. In the morning I saw his last seen on WhatsApp, I felt bad and said harsh words to him, he never replied still. Now I want to apologize?
1.5 How should I text my boyfriend to get him to write me something sweet back?
1.6 How to express love in my message?
1.7 I am trying to think of a nice text to send to my ex husband. We are talking about getting back together. He is 60 and I am 61. We have been apart for 10 years. I don't want to push him but I need to contact him every couple of days. Does he like attention?

1.13 How can you move on when your sibling is angry at you?
1.14 How to know a person is honest or not?
My boyfriend is so busy with his work, he is a site engineer with 6 projects to attend to and I am actually running out of nice words to make his day great and he seldom reply now. He stopped saying I love you for two days now, and he is not that sweet for two days now. He doesn't even answer my calls, he keeps saying he is busy.. I'm afraid that he will find somebody to talk with that will make him happy and relaxed. Even good night has been very hard for him to send me. I want to send him messages that will make him reply to me and put him in a good mood and sweetness with me. I just hope he still loves me?
1.Does he still love me?
2.Do I irritate him during his work? 3.Why he was not that sweet to me for the past few days? 4.What kind of sweet uplifting words I can send him to make him wait and reply my messages? 5.How can I make him show back his love for me same as before.
Right now you need to send him encouraging messages. Do not flood him with questions about your relationship and how he feels about you. Your insecurity could actually push him away even further. Trust me, if he is too busy for you then he is definitely too busy to find someone else.
Send the messages but keep them to just three times a day unless he replies. In the morning, afternoon and before bed is sufficient. Let him focus on his projects so the messages you send should not be needy or a cry for attention. Show him that you are just fine on your own.
His love for you probably has not changed. If he is not showing it currently, he will as soon as he gets some time to relax and decompress. Many of us are hardwired to focus on work until the job is done. This means we shut everyone and everything out until we are done. It does not mean that we do not love you though. If you are the person for him you will understand these times in your relationship.
How to reach my boyfriend, he is so busy with his work and we have different hours because he is working across the miles. Please help me on how to reach him out to keep me closer I want him a lot?
Because you are on opposite hours, schedule your messages to him for when he is awake and working. You can find many apps in Google Play. Complete the SMS and then schedule them. It will probably surprise him and show him that you are thinking of him always.
Hi, I'm from the Philippines and I have an online boyfriend and he is from New Zealand and he is always busy in his work but sometimes he answers me. How to handle that I love him and he said he loves me too?
How to handle a distance relationship to keep him?
Commitment and attraction are just part of the whole that makes a great relationship. To handle a long distance relationship, you'll need to put in a little extra effort than a girl who lived in the same town as her boyfriend, but it's really not that much different than if your boyfriend had moved to another country to go to medical school while you went to university in your hometown.
Focus on the little sweet things you can do for him, like sending some of the sweet love messages we've listed here, or occasionally mailing him a package or a card through the post. Remember that when you message him, if he's busy, it's important not to ask for or demand a response. Instead, tell him what you want, and let him take that as a gift and token of your love. Remember that a gift asks for nothing in return. When you send him a message to say, "I love you," it shouldn't be a requirement for him to message you back.
Focusing on what you have, and how you can build that into something that will last a lifetime, is a great thing the two of you can work on together. Building a future in a long distance relationship can actually be easier sometimes than building one in a close relationship because many of the little distractions you might normally have are gone (like arguing about what to eat, or which movie to see).
Speaking of movies, have you watched movies together yet? It's a great way to build time together, and you can watch a movie while chatting and sharing the experience - almost as if you were in the theater together.
My boyfriend went to a business trip. The journey was a 13hrs drive. I never slept thinking about him and I texted him so many messages telling him how I have lost sleep. He never replied any. In the morning I saw his last seen on WhatsApp, I felt bad and said harsh words to him, he never replied still. Now I want to apologize?
Get Your Boyfriend to Forgive You and Write an Apology Letter to Your Boyfriend are two VisiHow articles to help you further compose the right message of forgiveness. It is hard to push neediness on our significant other, especially when they are absent from us. Apologize for being so over obsessive. Your concern for his well being was valid but you pushed it too far.
How should I text my boyfriend to get him to write me something sweet back?
So I tell him all these sweet things and he even tells me they are all really sweet, but he doesn't say sweet things like that back to me... Please Help!!!
You can't really change a person's emotional output. He may have a hard time expressing his feelings or just clueless on how to sweet talk. Focus on what he actually does to show you that he loves you. Talking to him about how it would be nice if he attempted to sweet talk might open him up a little. Do not be discouraged if it seems that he still is not making enough effort. If he treats you right, know that he loves you.
Point out and acknowledge when he says sweet things in person. Perhaps encouragement will make him more comfortable to text sweet nothings.
How to express love in my message?
I want to show him that I love him. How can I say this in my message?
One of the reasons love is so difficult to express is that sometimes the way we say or need to hear 'I love you' is different than the way the person we love will understand or say it. For example, a shy boyfriend might feel that you love him when you hold his hand and sit next to him, but another man might want you to tell him, write long letters, or possibly even cook him a meal. Different men express and receive 'love messages' differently, just like women. For some women, flowers or a poem can say I love you, while others prefer jewelry or little gifts. Some others simply want to spend time with their man and don't see gifts as a true expression of love.
So, what kind of man is your boyfriend? How does he show you that he cares? Is it in what he says, or are there other little things he does for you? Think about these, and then use the link at the beginning of this Q&A guide to see our 100 love messages. Using that guide, you can find a way to let him know just how important he is and show him how much you really care.
I am trying to think of a nice text to send to my ex husband. We are talking about getting back together. He is 60 and I am 61. We have been apart for 10 years. I don't want to push him but I need to contact him every couple of days. Does he like attention?
Instead of over text, any questions you may have had should be over a cup of coffee or a casual setting. Do not push him about the past because this should be about both of you moving forward together. Also, if you have not forgiven him or he has not forgiven for reasons of the past then this relationship is doomed to fail again. While it is easy to fall into a "married life" routine again, avoid temptation and take it slow. Each of you has changed even subtlely in the last 10 years. It is about getting to know each other again.
How do I support my man when he feels unhappy at work?
Been with this guy close to a year now and things have been great over the past few months but recently everything has changed. In short, he doesn't do all the things he used to do before. I love him so much and his family has been great towards me but I can't shake the feeling that we are not what we used to be, he says he is unhappy at work, he thinks he should just quit, go home and will stay job hunting again. I have told him over and over, that I'd support him no matter what but it seems not to be enough. We used to talk for hours before over the phone but lately, he doesn't call me anymore. he would rather WhatsApp me. Please help, I can live without him but I do not want to.
Workplace issues can cause depression and anxiety. Sometimes when people are depressed, they withdraw from those they love and punish themselves. They may not even realize they are doing this to themselves. If you are in a long distance relationship, you should plan a trip to see him as soon as possible to talk to him face to face. Offering your support financially is an awesome gesture but he may not think you mean it or feel that would be too much on your relationship. Help a Loved One Dealing with Depression is a VisiHow article with further advice for you.
Something to cheer him up while he is at work?
He has a lot of work to do and has to deal with a lot of people.
Use GIFS and either personalize them or share them as they are. There are several websites and download a GIF app from Google Play. This will put a smile on his face and give him a minute of distraction.
How do I make a failing relationship work?
You just started dating and right now he is probably trying to focus on school so pushing you away. Do not take it to heart. It is up to you, but wait it out until after finals. See if his attitude towards you changes. Offer him support towards completing his finals. You should both date much longer before moving in together. Realize that he will have several years still of completing his internship and residency. This is a grueling time of learning in the field while choosing your medical focus profession. The hours are exhausting and he will not have much time for you. If your relationship can stick it out during these years, it will be solid in the future.
What to say to a man when he says his day was stressful?
When your boyfriend comes home and tells you that his day was stressful, the best thing to say to him is to tell him you're sorry. It's not your fault, of course, but letting your boyfriend know that you feel bad that his day was stressful will make him feel better and will relieve the stress a bit. Sit next to him after you apologize and ask him to discuss his day with you. Talking about his day's stressful things with you can give your boyfriend a different perspective about what happened, and he may be able to look at the day's happenings and, with your help, relieve his stress by analyzing what happened and preventing it from happening next time. After you're done talking about his day and helping him that way, don't bring it up again -- this could cause him to become stressed again. Talk to him about his favorite sports, television shows, or video games. Offer to watch or play those things with him, as well. Now that you've helped him get his mind off of the stressful day, you will want to continue to do things with him to show him that you care and, more importantly, to keep his mind occupied with non-stressful things. Make sure you let him know periodically that you care about him, and telling him jokes while you play a video game or watch a movie together will make him laugh and remove any remaining stress that he has.
If you really want to step it up a notch, give him a neck and back rub. Messaging the neck area will release a lot of his stress and demonstrate you care about more than just words. You could also get him a drink and say something like "Let's take 10 minutes and hit the hot tub". If you don't have a hot tub you could prepare a bath for him. It sounds old fashioned but he will definitely enjoy the TLC.
I love her but she doesn't have time?
She had no time for me, but I still love her. What to do?
Women are attracted to men for a variety of reasons, but one of the most common reasons is a man's strength. If a man is always seeking the approval of a woman or smothering her with his love and need for her to respond to that love, she's likely to be turned off by that.
This is in part due to the fact that women expect men to make decisions as part of being a man. Sometimes that will mean doing unpleasant tasks she might not want to, such as killing a spider or taking out the trash. Other times it might be more difficult, such as working an extra job to pay the bills or disciplining a child you'd rather be hugging.
Because of these unspoken expectations, women are almost always drawn to men who appear strong and masculine. This is why so many girls are attracted to 'bad boys', and it's also why busy boyfriends often have such devoted and wonderful girlfriends - because they are showing their girlfriends that they are 'men', and not seeking approval.
As the renowned Giacomo Casanova famously said, "Be the flame, not the moth." This means you should be something to be attracted to, rather than allowing your own attractions to rule you. Instead of chasing her, be the flame, and she will be irresistibly drawn to you.
How can you move on when your sibling is angry at you?
Become a Better Brother or Sister is a VisiHow article for you to read. When I was younger, one of my sisters and I had a huge argument over the TV remote. I thought it was the end of the world because we did not speak for several days. 30 years later, we have a loving and solid relationship. You both will overcome this.
Make the first move in apologizing. Even if you were right, it is always best to end the conflict. We all have disagreements with our siblings but it is how we overcome them that is important. You can begin the healing process by being the bigger person. This will show your sibling that you do not want strife with them.
How to know a person is honest or not?
I knew one guy at Facebook, he refuses to show me his passport, or house address, he always says he wants to spend the rest of life with me and wants me to go meet him. For me, it feels like not safe.
Trust your gut. If you do decide to meet him, do not go alone. Perhaps invite several friends to go on the trip with you. Do not share any details of where you will be staying or when you will be arriving. Instead, schedule a first date meeting at a public location and provide no further details of your travel itinerary. Be prepared for him to not even show up. All of that being said, if he is not giving you his house address for you to send him mail, then end this. He seems to be hiding something with that omission.

I am writing you to ask to please pray for our family. I'm sure you're getting lots of requests for prayers from families struggling during this difficult time in our economy. Over the past couple years I have prayed for the families around me and even agonized as two of our son-in laws were laid off and briefly with out work.
About 2 weeks ago my husband Steve was informed he was being laid off. We have very little money in saving because both myself and our 25 yr. old son Tim are handicapped. We have tremendous medical bills and now we have a great chance of losing medical insurance. Tim's not expected to live more than 6 more months and just his meds cost over $3,000 per month and mine over $2,500. That doesn't cover doctors, tests, etc. I called SSI but it takes them 2-3 yrs. to make a decision on coverage. I'm so scared.
May God bless you financially.
Father, have mercy on this family O God. i pray for healing, comfort and provision. all of which you promised to provide. Father, help cynthia and her family. they need you, Father, more than ever. meet them where they are, o God. thank you for hearing our prayers. in Jesus' name, amen.
perhaps this is difficult time for me. I am student, I need financial support to continue my studies. I know God is able to do everything. I need your prayer. Please pray for me to get financial support.
I pray that God will continue to give you the strength to handle what will come next for you and your beautiful family. May He continue to bring you close as a family and together in your faith.
I will pray for it. be faithful. God knows all of our problem.

I never met Sandy Pearlman but he played an extremely important part in my formative musical years.
Pearlman and Krugman performed a sonic alchemy that created a mutation of metal and what at the time was proper punk rock. Folks of a certain age and persuasion know exactly what I'm talking about. They were able to fuse The Yardbirds, Black Sabbath and the MC5 into something that has never really been bettered. I think I was 14 when I first heard BŐC and they've stayed with me throughout the journey. Like they have with many close associates.
Without Sandy and his old tag team partner there would likely have been no way that I'd have discovered Andy, HDM, Ross, Scott and Stu Boy. Without them then you lwouldn't be being subjected to this. I'd just read a facebook post by Scott Kempner the other day that suggested the prognosis may not be so good.
Condolences to his friends and family at this time and profuse thanks to him for setting me off down this road.
The Glorious 12th - MIRIAM and NOBODY's BABIES back where it all began!
A Short Film About Suicide from Start Productions on Vimeo.
I was lucky enough to actually know Alan Vega a bit. My first encounter with Suicide had been via the 1976 Max's compilation. When the album came out, it polarised anyone that it came into contact with. In the mind of a daft wee fanzine editor, the duo became part of a holy NY quinity – Cramps/Dictators/New York Dolls/Ramones/ Suicide – presented alphabetically, not necessarily in order of merit.
Howard Thompson had licensed "Suicide" for release on Bronze in the UK after being alerted to their existence by Kevin Patrick who'd sent him a copy as part of their ongoing record swapping activity. I met H through Ms Miriam Linna who was working for Marty Thau at Red Star. I'd recently made contact with Miriam via Richie Teeter of The Dictators and had sent her a tape of Simple Minds that she had played for Howard. Anyway, over the years, I got to know Alan via HT and I always found him to be the consummate gentleman. The first time we met, I believe, was the third floor of a place called Danceteria in 1983 and many times over the years after that.
The best New Years Eve I ever spent EVER was at the close of 1990 in a bar close to Alan and Liz's apartment. It involved HT, Vega and I discussing the best method of preparing a roast. How much more rock'n'roll could it get? We were the only people in there. Everybody else must have been in Times Square or wherever. It felt like the only people left in the city or even the world, aside from the bartender. There was also the time that Alan weighed in to try and save BBC Radio Scotland's Beat Patrol. Scotland was always amenable to Suicide at the time when many other places were not. Alan was perplexed when the audience at Tiffany's in Edinburgh attempted to dance to their "music". I found that baffling is because audiences in that city are not renowned for dancing to anything let alone something as newfangled as these guys were.
Suicide played a show at The Buffalo bar in London a few years ago (June 2007 as a warm-up for their Grinderman opening slot?). HT, Tony Thewlis and I witnessed a sound check that was so mind-blowingly surreal as to make me wonder if it ever actually happened at all. I saw them a good number of times but this was Lynch-like in terms of electricity.
My most recent interaction with him was when Liz kindly put together his recollections of the "Cubist Blues" record for the Light In The Attic reissue. Getting her notes, one perceptive quote really hit me. "We were meditating on sound and time was suspended." It was so perfect, so Alan. When I sent Iñigo the draft, he freaked out at how succinctly Alan had nailed it. Another thing I recall was my ex-partner being scared to meet Vega and then not being able to believe how nice a man he was "in real life".
He was and is and forever will be an extraordinary character and inspiration that was locked on a constant trajectory to create. Seemingly unfettered compared to the rest of us. Suicide may might not have set the heather on fire at the time but once the blaze started an eternal flame was lit and those initial dreams burned forever. The world caught up. How did that happen? And then there were his solo records. Always breaking new ground, setting the bar higher and ever higher, visceral one minute, heartbreaking the next.
An Alan/Liz/Dante project that was previewed at The Barbican is in the pipeline. Recordings that Alan completed with Ben Vaughn and Palmyra Delran will also hopefully find their way into the world over the coming months. It won't be easy to adjust to a post-Vega world. Who the heck is even close to being as qualified to scream the truth at and for us now?

Good For ME But Not For Thee

Citing threats, Mayor Lori Lightfoot defends ban on protesters on her block: 'I have a right to make sure that my home is secure'
Mayor Lori Lightfoot defended the Chicago Police Department's ban on protesters being able to demonstrate on the block where she lives, telling reporters Thursday that she and her family at times require heightened security because of threats she receives daily.
Lightfoot refused to elaborate on the specific threats, but said she receives them daily against herself, her wife and her home. Comparisons to how the Police Department has protected previous mayors' homes, such as Rahm Emanuel's Ravenswood residence, are unfair because "this is a different time like no other," Lightfoot told reporters.
'Fort Lori': Chicago police ban protests on Mayor Lori Lightfoot's block, order arrests for anyone who won't leave »
"I think that residents of this city, understanding the nature of the threats that we are receiving on a daily basis, on a daily basis, understand I have a right to make sure that my home is secure," Lightfoot said.
Lightfoot and Chicago police Superintendent David Brown were asked at an unrelated news conference about a Tribune report noting police have banned protesters from demonstrating on her block in the Logan Square neighborhood, ordering officers to arrest anyone who refuses to leave.
The directive surfaced in a July email from then-Shakespeare District Cmdr. Melvin Roman to officers under his command. It did not distinguish between the peaceful protesters Lightfoot regularly says she supports and those who might intend to be destructive, but ordered that after a warning is given to demonstrators, "It should be locked down."
Activists and police sources could not cite instances when the city repeatedly locked down her predecessor Emanuel's block against protesters. The Kenwood block where former President Barack Obama lived with his family when his primary residence was in Chicago was shut down for access only by residents after his election.
But Lightfoot said such comparisons "don't make any sense," after Brown referenced the ongoing coronavirus pandemic as well as civil unrest that have flared since the George Floyd killing at the hands of Minneapolis police.
"I'm not going to make any excuses for the fact that, given the threats I have personally received, given the threats to my home and my family, I'm going to do everything I can to make sure they're protected," Lightfoot said. "I make no apologies whatsoever for that."
Since the order, and even for a time just prior to its writing, Chicago cops have repeatedly blocked protesters' access to the block with groups of officers and barricades. Police have often kept protesters contained at the nearby corner of Kimball and Wrightwood avenues, though one standoff between activists and officers last month saw police go as far as bringing in an armored vehicle in case things got out of hand.
Aside from the expanded police presence to block protesters from reaching her home, Lightfoot already receives 24/7 protection from cops including officers stationed at the residence. The aggressive policing has sometimes siphoned away resources from the area's police district, some sources with knowledge of the situation said, leading to quiet grumbling.
Both Lightfoot and Brown noted there are laws on the books banning residential protests, but Brown acknowledged the Police Department does not always enforce them. Brown said the city tries to give "wiggle room" for protesters.
Brown also cited instances where peaceful protests have been "hijacked" by agitators as reason for keeping demonstrators off Lightfoot's block.
"We have seen very peaceful First Amendment protests for the most part but embedded in each of those protests have been very violent people. And they're embedded. They put up umbrellas. And they come for a fight," Brown said. "So we have to prepare for what we've seen."

Well, I'll take that ^^^ back if she made absolutely sure that not one of the cops were armed with anything more than a night stick.
"We never really fight for our own rights, per se, but rather for the rights of our progeny and those that come after us." - yours truly
I firmly believe all men are created equal with certain inalienable rights, and chief among these are the rights to life, Liberty, private property and the relentless pursuit of anyone that would want to infringe upon these rights.
The state and city's ineffective leaders are all the product of a progressive ruling elite that promoted them beyond their competence because they helped advance political goals.
Given their backgrounds, it's no surprise that the trio of Foxx, Lightfoot, and Pritzker has done nothing to halt the state and city's decline.
They have also failed to sustain the first condition of civilization: order under law.
One feels almost nostalgic for the days when Chicago was run by a Democratic political machine that at least understood this cardinal principle of statecraft.
In effect, Chicago has been run over twice.
First, machine politics left it with a huge financial and trust deficit among many of its citizens.
Now, progressive politics threaten to undermine the legal order, the foundation of the economic growth that the city needs to climb out of its deep hole.
Chicago was sick even before the looting and riots of 2020, but things could get worse still. The city could become another Detroit.

It's just baffling she doesn't see anything wrong with this.
Typical hypocrite liberal idiot. If they are so peaceful and have the right to protest what the heck is her problem? She is forbidding them to peacefully protest at the place of their choice.....yet they call Trump the nazi dictator.
Must be nice to have the entire police department as your personal security force....

"It's just baffling she doesn't see anything wrong with this."
Here are some of the clues that have escaped you: She is black, "married-lesbian", DEMOCRAT, holds a high elected position, and is filled up with "Woke-attitude".
So, she and her family have a right to be safe???
I suppose the folks that voted her into office don't have any rights according to her.
jrbfishn said:
Thats exactly how I see it!.
SHE has right to be safe, screw the other 2.7 million people living in Chicago. That right doesn't apply to them.
Funny... look what I just found...
Hypocrite liberal idiot? Isn't that a redundancy?
Reactions: Stevejet
It is a typical mindset for a extreme left socialist DemocRAT: the only people who are in need of protection, are those who are members of the "elite", if you are a member of the masses, you do not need or deserve protection, after all, you primary job is to serve the "elites".

Chris Rock On Black Film: "Might As Well Be Making An iPad"
Written By My Praise ATL
"In the old days, they used to have signs up, 'Whites Only, Whites Only.' Now they have a new thing. It's called prices?," comedian Chris Rock said of the racial make-up of his audience on the latest episode of Alec Baldwin's WNYC interview podcast, Here's the Thing.
In the interview, Rock weighs in on a number of hot topics including white studios' efforts to make black films and why he's picky about the films he chooses.
"Most movies suck, man, really suck. See, I'm — I'm messed up 'cause I like to see somethin' I haven't seen or I haven't seen with a black person. Black people in film is still at its — really at its infant stage…"

Q: How to use FILE * with iPhone I have a file called "0.ballpoint" that all I want to do is store some coordinates with (don't really want to use Core Data because it seem a little excessive). I placed it in my project but when I try doing this:
if ( access("0.ballpoint", F_OK) != -1) {
    printf("file exists\n");
}
else {
    printf("doesn't exist\n");
}

It says it "doesn't exist". Do I need to put the full path name? And if I do what do I do when I place it on the actual iPhone/iPod Touch?

A: CoreData is not meant for File access. There are other file API's available for iPhone.
Please go through NSFileManager and NSStream documentation.
For example, if your intention is to check if file exists at certain path,you may use
(add your file to resources)
NSString *filePath =  [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource: @"0" ofType: @"ballpoint"];
BOOL fileExists = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:filePath];

Prefer not to use low level stuff (C File handles) unless you have a valid reason to do so. Paths are to be carefully chosen (as you cant make assumptions on certain path, which might cease to exist in future).
Having said that, if you prefer to work with C file handling ,
NSString *filePath =  [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource: @"0" ofType: @"ballpoint"];
FILE *fileHandle = fopen([filePath cStringUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding],"r");

A: it needs to become a resource to your Application that way the file can be pulled anytime during the use of your application.
Im not too well educated in Ipod Dev, im more of a windows phone 7 developer but i know it cant access it if it is still on your computer so you need to import it into your application some how and call it with the full file path name.

The church office just got a new copy of Churches of Christ in the United States. This is the "directory" of our churches listing contact information (address, phone numbers, email). This data was compiled first in the 1970's by Mac Lynn of Harding Grad and then Lipscomb. The task was taken over some time ago by 21st Century Christian. We buy a copy ever several years so that people who are travelling or moving to an area can have a start on finding a church with which to worship. The directory really has been helpful at times.
You can read more about this at the Christian Chronicle site. Ironically, the lead story of this same edition of the Chronicle is entitled "Church in America Marked by Decline," which laments the decline among the churches in our fellowship in America... as reported by the same directory! We are booting people off the island on the one hand and moaning about getting smaller on the other. It stands to reason that if we keep drawing our circles smaller and smaller, there will be fewer and fewer who fit inside.
Aren't we blessed that it is God who knows and keeps His own roll book. If some of the brethren kept it, when the roll is called up yonder, very few would be there!

Scott Ruhman, Controller Oliver Companies: Profile
Posted on May 14, 2018 by Liang McIntosh-Yee
Scott Ruhman Profile
As controller for the hospitality division of Oliver Companies, Scott is involved with invoicing for properties across the country. With the company's growth, the demands on its accounting team have increased, also, leading to a need to scale quickly to keep up. In recent years, Scott and the rest of his team have enjoyed the benefits of automation, which has helped them become more efficient and productive.
But transitions are a normal part of life for Scott, who experienced major changes when his previous company, Polinski Rehab merged with St. Mary's. Following his time with Polinski, he served as controller for Owen's Force Products before joining Oliver Companies. Along the way, Scott and his wife also started their own restaurant. With his financial savvy and his wife's determination, they've managed to turn a backup plan into a thriving business.
A Thriving Side Business
Scott's wife had an interest in running a restaurant long before they took the plunge. She wanted to buy the same location soon after they married, but Scott knew it wasn't a lucrative investment at the time. However, when the price dropped by half, the couple made an offer and before they knew it, they were restaurant owners.
"Business is probably the best we've had in a long time," Scott says. "We are, by far, the best we've probably had since we've owned it in the last year. Our numbers are way, way up, and we are actually doing very well."
Limited Leisure Time
Between working hard for Oliver Companies during the week and helping out at Cedar Lodge Steakhouse & Grille on the weekends, Scott has little time left over for hobbies. He does get a little time on Saturday mornings, but he spends Friday night, Saturday night, and Sunday night at the restaurant.
"In the fall, I hunt," Scott says when describing how he spends his free time on Saturdays. "My son and I hunt. So I hunt a lot in the fall. I try to hunt with him and take time to do that. But no, it's busy, busy."
Family in Business
Scott and his wife aren't the only family members to put time into the restaurant. He has a 17-year-old son and two daughters who help out when they can. He believes everyone should experience what it's like to work in a restaurant at some point since he has found that type of work makes you look at things differently.
"My kids are better for it because they've seen it, and they've experienced it," Scott says. "So they get it. We've been very fortunate. The people that have helped us build the restaurant and build the business… We've had family and friends that have helped remodel that place and done all kinds of things for us."
As he watches Oliver Companies and his own restaurant grow and thrive, Scott can't help but look forward to the future. He's proof that hard work pays off, even if it requires long hours. He's also proof that when you're surrounded by family and friends, there's nothing you can't achieve.

Originally discovered for his 2005 mixtape Lyrical Overdose Volume 1, Protoje's hip-hop background initially set him apart from other roots reggae artists. On the day of its release in November 2012, his "Kingston Be Wise" video is one of the most viewed YouTube links in Jamaica; the song was then featured in Grand Theft Auto V. Another popular Protoje track, "This Is Not a Marijuana Song," came out the same year and remains one of the best cannabis anthems in recent memory.

According to the results of the first tour of the presidential elections, Petro Poroshenko got 15,95% of the votes and entered the second tour, which will take place on April 21.
But only voters can decide whether Poroshenko is going to become the president for the second time. And we will talk about the First Lady, wife of Petro Poroshenko, Maryna Poroshenko.
We know much more about Mrs. Poroshenko than about Olena Zelenska; she was visible during these five years. However, we collected all the information that we know about Maryna Poroshenko in one article.
Maryna Poroshenko (birth surname Perevedentseva) was born in Kyiv on February 1, 1962). She is cardiologists on education and doctor of medical science.
She got acquainted with future husband during studies, at a student disco. According to Petro Poroshenko, he often was at night shifts with wife, who worked at Oleksandrivska Clinical Hospital in Kyiv.
Soon, Maryna Poroshenko had to end her medical carrier but, according to her, she has never regretted about this decision. The family is in the first place for Ukraine's first lady; by the way, she does not like such title.
"I do not really like this expression (First Lady, - 112.international). It bears silos and isolation. The first means alone, aside. I am ready to help my husband and it is the most important things. All issues, which will appear daily, I am ready to solve rolling up my sleeves and stand with my husband side by side," Maryna said in one of her interviews.
Maryna Poroshenko is the Chairman of Council of Charitable Foundation of Petro Poroshenko and Chairman of Ukrainian Culture Foundation. Moreover, she has four children with her husband: two sons and two daughters.
Already in 2017, Maryna Poroshenko graduated from the National Academy of Managerial Personnel of Culture and Arts with a major in "Fine, decorative and applied arts" and was qualified as "Art expert".
According to the declaration of Petro Poroshenko for 2017, his spouse owns 50% of Kyiv flat with the size of 80,66 square meters, 1900 square meters land plot, 344 square meters villa house, Hublot watch, jewelry of Cartier, Carrera y Carrera, Dior, a little collection of Chanel, Fend and Dior bags and Jaguar XF car.
Petro and Maryna Poroshenko are married for almost 35 years. According to her, the main rule of Poroshenko family is not to discuss politics at home.

Echosmith have announced they will be releasing their breakthrough single, "Cool Kids" on November 28th in honor of Record Store Day's "Black Friday" celebration.
The 12" picture disc vinyl single (limited to 3,000) includes a previously unreleased remix by acclaimed remixer RAC (Tegan & Sara).
Originally, Black Friday was created by large corporate retailers to drive consumers to stores by promoting deals and discounted prices on mass-produced products. RSD's Black Friday subverts this tradition by creating special limited-edition pieces, often numbered, from a diverse list of beloved artists. RSD's version of Black Friday celebrates the pieces themselves and honors the special independent record stores that carry them.

Album Review: Hazel Dickens & Alice Gerrard, 'Sing Me Back Home: The DC Tapes, 1965-1969'
BY Kim Ruehl
The second half of the 1960s saw the rise of folk-rock on the popular stage, after Bob Dylan showed up at the Newport Folk Festival with the Paul Butterfield Blues Band and scandalized his fanbase by "going electric" in '65. But even as Dylan led a folk-rock renaissance in the mainstream, the folk music world that's always churning along on the fringes hardly deflated.
Among its greatest stalwarts were Hazel Dickens and Alice Gerrard, who rose to the fore of the bluegrass world, specifically, singing labor movement songs and bluegrass standards in the ensuing decade.
Now a new album, Sing Me Back Home: The DC Tapes, 1965-1969, pulled from Gerrard's personal archive, gives us a view into the duo's earliest canon. These were the years when they were also recording with New Lost City Rambler Mike Seeger and show a command of traditional forms to rival his.
Here, the pair tackles a number of American standards with outstanding skill and ease: "Little Darling Pal of Mine," "Bye Bye Love," "Cannonball Blues," and many more.
One of the most interesting tunes on this newly released collection is Hazel & Alice's version of "This Little Light of Mine," which is sung in a hurried round with full Appalachian old-time aplomb. It transmogrifies the old freedom song from a gospel declaration to a triumphant, running charge. You can almost hear them smiling together as they chase each other through the refrain: "Every day, every day, every day, every day, gonna let my little light shine."
Perhaps what's most astonishing, though, is how Hazel & Alice move through folk, blues, pop, and other styles with the same level of proficiency and charisma as they are known for bringing to the style that made them famous. Yes, Dickens's high lonesome bluegrass voice is a delightful instrument, anchored by Gerrard's powerful alto. But this recording depicts a duo at its best when not pigeonholed into one tiny realm of roots music.
The individual performances are excellent, to be sure, but the greater artistic statement we get from this album is that these artists were, by the time they rose to prominence, fluent in the American songbook, intimately aware of the deep connections between its various roots music forms.
Understanding that foundation, we can more thoroughly appreciate their later recordings the way taking in a whole tree can amplify the beauty of its blooms.
For anyone interested in the way all these American music forms are intricately connected, Sing Me Back Home is a clear look into what may often seem like muddy water. Further, the fact that most of these songs have never been commercially released makes it a vital addition to the serious folk fan's collection.
Sing Me Back Home: The DC Tapes, 1965-1969 is out now via Free Dirt Records and available here at iTunes and Amazon.com.

Will L.A.'s Latest Child Death Drive up Foster Care Numbers?
By Guest Writer
On Thursday, Los Angeles news outlets started reporting on the death of 10-year-old Anthony Avalos. The home where the boy was found "unresponsive" on Wednesday had been visited by law enforcement and the county Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS), which investigates allegations of child abuse, according to news reports.
While we are still in early days, the death of a child known to child protective services can have long lasting repercussions. Here in Los Angeles, the death of 8-year-old Gabriel Fernandez in 2013, and the 2016 death of 11-year-old Yonatan Aguilar roiled county government and shook DCFS leading to reforms that are still playing out today.
Tragically, child deaths are an inescapable reality for a sprawling child protection system like L.A.'s, and these incidents are the ultimate test for the system's leadership.
This is the first high profile death since the county hired Bobby Cagle as DCFS director. Cagle most recently led Georgia's child protection system. When he took the helm of that system in 2014 there were 8,538 children in foster care. By the time he left three-and-a-half years later, the number stood at 13,542, a nearly 60 percent surge in the number of children in foster care.

On Nov. 29, Bobby Cagle was sworn in as the director of L.A. County's child welfare system, the largest in the nation.
Much like the situation he is faced with today, the dramatic rise in foster care numbers in Georgia came on the heels of high profile child deaths.
Having presided over one of the steepest increases in foster care rates in recent child welfare history, will this latest child death mean children will be removed from their homes at a faster rate here in Los Angeles County? If the death's of Gabriel and Yonatan are any indication, this may very well be the case.
During the tenure of Cagle's predecessor Philip Browning, the number of children in foster care grew at a modest rate as compared to Georgia – in part driven by more aggressive scrutiny of child abuse allegations. Between 2000 and 2011 the rate at which investigations were filed as "petitions" to open a case in the county's juvenile dependency court fluctuated from 4.6 to 8.5 percent. But, starting in 2012, when Browning was hired, the rate steadily rose, arriving at 10 percent in 2016. When Browning started his five-year stint as DCFS director there were roughly 15,000 kids living in out-of-home care. By the time he left in late 2016 the number had swelled to 18,000.
"I think that numbers went up frankly because of this tragic situation we had in the Antelope Valley [the 2013 death of 8-year-old Gabriel Fernandez]," Browning said in an interview on the eve of his retirement. "I think what happened was that that the public and I were shocked at what happened to that young child, and I think the public started calling in, and maybe they wouldn't have in the past. We got thousands more phone calls, which resulted in thousands more investigations that resulted in more children being detained."
In an interview before being sworn in last November Cagle said: "If anyone running a system says that child safety isn't the top goal, you ought to be fired."
In the wake of Anthony's death he released a statement echoing this disposition.
"As a department, our first and foremost priority is the safety of our county's children, and we grieve whenever we hear of a child's death," Cagle said. "We also try to understand how such tragedies occur, and we work hard to figure out how they might have been prevented in the first place."
Part of his predecessor's response was to file more petitions, which resulted in more child removals. While in Georgia, Cagle paid investigators overtime and hired new social workers to carry out investigations, which, coupled with increased calls to the child abuse hotline there, also contributed to more child removals.
He now sits at the helm of a $2.4 billion agency with thousands of workers. Will Cagle respond to this latest tragedy by ramping up scrutiny of child abuse allegations? There are 18,150 children in foster care today, according to DCFS. If history is a guide, those numbers may well go up.

'God Will Protect Us': Coronavirus Spreads Through an Already Struggling Pakistan
If the virus spreads much further, Pakistan's entire health care system may melt down. In Karachi, a port city of some 20 million, there are only 600 beds in intensive care wards. There are 1,700 ventilators across the country, and last week, there were only 15,000 N95 masks for doctors and nurses, officials said.
"We don't even have anti-rabies vaccines. How can we deal with thousands of people who will come here for coronavirus treatment?" said one doctor at a state-run hospital, who also complained that they had not been issued protective gear. As a government employee the doctor had been barred from talking to the media, and requested anonymity to express concerns.
In February, it became clear Pakistan was facing a major outbreak of coronavirus, as the disease surged in Iran, which quickly became an epicenter. Thousands of Pakistanis visit Iran every month for work or religious pilgrimage, and the countries share a long border.
Officials closed the border, but hundreds of Pakistanis managed to get back in anyway, either rerouting through Afghanistan to cross the border there, or bribing guards to get back in, witnesses and officials said.
In order to prevent thousands more from illegally crossing, officials decided to quarantine them in Taftan, a border town. But conditions were so bad — cramped and filthy, with the virus spreading quickly — that people being held there rioted, burning part of the camp down.
"We had no proper food, no screening of anyone for coronavirus," said Syed Haider Ali, a student who had been quarantined at Taftan.
"It was not an attack on the camp, but an attempt to rescue ourselves from the animal-like treatment we were receiving," he said. "We appealed to the government to treat us like humans, but it fell on deaf ears."

China Southern has dropped the price of their flights from Toronto to Shanghai, Xi An, Hangzhou, Nanjing, and 8 other destinations in China down to $480 CAD roundtrip including taxes.
The flights all have 1 stop each way, in Guangzhou, China.
Shanghai is actually the one destination that is not as strong a deal as the others, because you can pretty much always find non-stop flights from Toronto to Shanghai in the high $600s or low $700s roundtrip these days.
But to the other destinations in China, you would always have at least 1 stop anyways, and the prices are always quite a bit higher.
China Southern is actually a pretty good airline (4 star Skytrax rating). I often see people confuse China Southern with China Eastern, a lower quality airline.
Xi An (XIY) - Undisputed root of Chinese civilization, home of the Terracotta Warriors, many historical ruins, Huashan mountain.
Zhengzhou (CGO) - Shaolin Temple / Monastery (90 min west), Yellow River scenic area.
Qingdao (TAO) - Sometimes referred to as the most beautiful and clean city in China. Near Laoshan, a scenic mountainous area.
NOTE: You can also fly into one city, but home from another, and keep the price about the same.
NOTE: Canadians require a visa to visit China, except for special circumstances where you can get a 6 day 'visa free' stay. You can research the visa-free rules and regulations here.
- look for the dates that are $503 roundtrip.
3. Search for a flight from Toronto (YYZ) to your destination in China.

Advocacy The American Heart Association's Go Red for Women awareness campaign is educating women about heart disease, the number of killer of women.
We've made many strides since 2004, when the American Heart Association launched its Go Red for Women awareness campaign.
But we've still got a long way to go.
Heart disease — the number one killer of women (and men) — claims the lives of 1 in 3 women. To put that in perspective, that's a third of our mothers, sisters and friends. The odds are even greater among black women, with nearly half over the age of 20 having some form of cardiovascular disease.
Since 2004, awareness among women that heart disease is their greatest health threat has increased to more than 50 percent. Given the fact that 80 percent of cardiac events are preventable, Go Red for Women aims to educate and empower women to fight heart disease.
Some heart disease risk factors, such as age, gender and family history, are of out of our control. But others can be treated or managed. Go Red for Women encourages women to take the simple steps of getting regular physical activity and eating and drinking healthy to lower risk factors such as high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
In addition to lifestyle changes, it's important for women to "Know Your Numbers." There are five key health numbers – total cholesterol, HDL (good) cholesterol, blood pressure, blood sugar and body mass index – that help determine risk for heart disease.
Yes, heart disease is women's leading cause of death. But Go Red for Women, nationally sponsored by CVS Health, can help us overcome this deadly enemy. And there's no better time than now to join the movement at GoRedforWomen.org and commit to taking charge of your heart health.
Heart disease is the number one killer of women in the United States, but many women don't know the symptoms and risk factors.
Women don't expect heart disease when pregnant. But many will experience cardiac events during pregnancy or shortly thereafter.

Feature: Julian Gough – Shredding Nets
By singaporereviewofbooks / December 26, 2018 / Feature, Fiction, Literature & Criticism
I've been familiar with Julian Gough's work since the late 1980s; however, when I started reading his newest novel, Connect, it was not what I expected – not at all.
In the late 80s, Gough was a student at University College Galway; me a student at Stony Brook in New York. My parents were born and raised in Ireland, as were Gough's. Like so many others, our parents left Ireland for economic reasons. I was produced in New York, Gough in London. His parents moved home, mine did not. However, all through my life, Ireland has been called "home". In my parents' circle of family and friends, no one ever said "Are you going to Ireland for Christmas," or "this summer?" It was always "Are you going home?" And we always did. Every summer was spent in Longford, playing with cousins and friends, and when old enough, cutting, drying, and bringing in the hay and the turf: for a fella that left Ireland at sixteen, my father was really good with a scythe and a slane. And while Ireland was called "home," it was a bizarre idea of a home: in the US, I was Irish, in Ireland, an American. Ireland was formative, but not everything.
When I was in my late teens, my parents let me go to Galway, with my friend Gerry, to stay with his older brother Frank, who worked for Telecom Éireann. The three of us grew-up in summers together. Frank was deeply into music; when we were younger, he introduced me to Dave Fanning and Joy Division. In the late 80s, he introduced me to a new band from Galway: Toasted Heretic – singer, Julian Gough. From the first listen, I loved Gough's lines:
And all the words she wrote to you
Were spelt wrong or were lies
And she bought black contact lenses when
You said you liked your eyes.
(From Songs for Swinging Celibates – 1988; in Free Sex Chocolate)
Ah, affinity: I understood such rejection. Smart lyrics, unusual in Pop/Rock; as a Lit major, I appreciated them, as a guitarist in a band even more obscure than Toasted Heretic, I wanted to emulate such intelligence. I felt such a connection, but our paths never crossed in Galway.
Life happens, one gets married, gets a job, has children. I lost track of what Gough and Toasted Heretic were doing, but still played their cassettes, taught the songs to my children. Then in 2009, in Singapore of all places, the tropics, I met two Irish professors who knew Gough from UCG, and I learned of his writing career. I quickly bought Juno & Juliet and Jude: Level 1 (now titled Jude in Ireland). The wit, the cleverness, of his lyrics was in his prose, and Ireland was too. I hadn't been home since 2003, and Gough's writing brought me there: to the fields, to the old aunts, my grandmothers and their statues of the Blessed Virgin, to putting on kettles and tea, to the politicised farmers, to The Castle (a nightclub in Galway), to the hilarity of the Irish situation (see Late Late interview 2007). I kept up with Gough's work and finally got to meet him, and chat, for a little bit, in 2017 at the IASIL conference in, strangely enough, Singapore. He was as funny and "charming" (see Gough's website and the entry for Juno & Juliet) as his work, so for IASIL Japan 2018, I decided to speak about his oeuvre, about Ireland and the Irish as represented in his works, particularly his upcoming novel, Connect.
As I read into Connect I felt that Gough had thrown a monkey wrench at my planned paper: "Where's Ireland, the Irish, the Irishness?" Connect is not set in Ireland, it takes place in the desert of the US West – about as far from an Irish setting, climatically, as one could get. There are no Irish in it: the main characters are a Chinese-American woman, Naomi, and her son, Colt. It is not a wild picaresque, satire of Ireland's contemporary condition like the Jude books. Gough had torn my abstract for IASIL Japan asunder. However, as I was drawn deeper into Connect, affinity amongst Gough's works, between the artist's creations, became apparent to me. Yes, Connect is about high technology, about biological engineering, virtual realities, national security systems: it is about our current state and the very near future; it is a sci-fi thriller. However, as you connect with the text, you are immersed in the story, and our stories are vital: "The universe is made of stories, not atoms" (Muriel Rukeyser, quoted in Connect, p.183). Moreover, "the System of Systems", tells us, that while Connect "is a novel," "it is also true" (p.1). Yes, I can see the thrilling movie Connect might be made into, but I also see the truth within the notions of the work, which are evident in all of Gough's work: lust, love, family, our relationships, and the social systems – religious, political, and economic – that affect all individuals currently sharing this point in time and space. Connect is a work that is extremely relevant to our paradigm: technology and the human are in a process of coevolution, we are merging: "'First we build the tools, then they build us.' – Fr. John Culkin, summarizing Marshall McLuhan, 1967" (quoted by Gough at beginning of Connect). Gough has thrown off the nets of Ireland, has dived right into the nets of our globalizing, high tech world and preceded to shred them with his kinch-like insights, exposing what matters in life: human emotions, human connections, our stories. Gough's technique, his abilities, have developed over the years, but he has remained true to his ideology, to his art:
The poet, the artist, the sleuth – whoever sharpens our perception tends to be antisocial; rarely "well-adjusted," he [or she] cannot go along with the currents and trends. A strange bond often exists among antisocial types in their power to see environments as they really are … [t]he new environment[s] [are] clearly visible to [them]. (McLuhan, p. 88)
In his 2007 interview on RTÉ's Late Late Show, Gough explained about his "ambition in life" to be an artist across different mediums, music, literature, film, that he chose to not get a regular job, to be impoverished, to be on the dole, so he could have the time for art.
Connect has a more serious tone than Gough's earlier writing, but I do not want to call it a more serious work. Gough's earlier, satiric, comic works deal with serious issues: political corruption, economic crashes, pedophilia in the church, death; moreover, Gough's commitment to his work, his art, is serious. Connect is surely the work of an artist that has been refining his craft for decades, that strives to be relevant to the now and the future, an artist brave enough to be brutally graphic and touchingly poignant all within the span of a few passages. Gough is Irish, an Irish writer; for Gough, Ireland has been formative, but it is not everything. Gough is an artist existing within "the System of Systems" and seeing it as it really is.

Roll in powder sugar and devour the deliciousness.
It's like a funnel cake with a gooey Oreo middle!
Try a fried poptart. I promise it won't disappoint!
Do you put it in a batter are just drop it in hot oil? How long do I leave it? That's as original as the fried Oreo. Thanks for the great suggestion!
Oh no. I have all of the ingredients for this in my pantry at this very moment. I'm feeling inspired….Yum!
I LOVE fried oreos!! You just made my week! Fried pickles are great too.
Wow! I have never seen that. It's amazing all the treats you can deep fry. The only ones I've had are deep fried ice cream and a deep fried mars bar. Nothing special but the deep fried ice cream is my favourite.
This sounds delicious! Going to put it on my project list.
The most unusual thing I have heard of fried, but have not tried, is a fried Snickerz -A gal at work had a cookbook of State Fair recipes from around the US and this was in it. The reason it sounded so odd is that the batter was mostly baking soda, a little bit of flour and water.
How long can you keep these after they are fried?
Oh my I must try these!
Wow, I just gained 5 pounds by reading this post but it was so worth it! I usually splurge on one of these at the state fair but might have to try my hand at making them myself now.
i did this but mine weren't as crispy on the outside as I would like….any tips?
Pillsbury Hungry Jack Flaky Layers biscuits FRIED!! 🙂 Separate them into layers, fry and dip them in sugar and cinnamon. You must use a flaky layer biscuit that is not as large as the Grands biscuit. If you want to fry biscuits without the sugar and cinnamon: Try the Pillsbury Grands Flaky Layers biscuits. Again; separate them into layers and then fry them. Then try a fried egg on top. I have a small pan that shapes the egg to the right size but you can use a metal cookie cutter on a flat-surfaced pan or muffin tin in the oven…use plenty of oil though. Pretty yummy.
Caught a recipe on Pinterest to use Buttermilk Pancake Batter for the Deep Fried Oreos, my opinion is the Golden Oreos to deep fry turned out very good!!!! I also have had Deep Fried Bananas which is also very good!!!!
