TACHIKAWA-KAWASAKI KI-36 FIGHTERS SIDE
BY SIDE WITH TWO FOO FIGHTER "BOGIES."
WORLD WAR II UFO'S BEFORE AND AFTER
FOO FIGHTERS is the name given to the general body of spherical, circular, disc-like, or wedged shaped "bogies," sometimes seeming to glow, shine, or reflect a high degree of illumination seen mostly by World War II pilots or flight crews. They usually paralleled or followed aircraft and were seen by aviators on all sides of the action, being reported by American, British, German and Japanese crews. No Foo Fighter was known or reported to have made or attempted any sort of contact, interaction or attack. They were known, however, for their high rate of speed and agility, being much faster than any known aircraft at the time as well as being extremely manuverable, often exhibiting highly unconventional abilities such as instantaneous acceleration and deacceleration, rapid climbing and descent, and hovering in place.
England entered the war long before the U.S. What became known as Foo Fighters were reported by the British as early as September 1941, with regular sightings by all sides continuing, except for a several month lull in 1943, throughout the war. On the U.S. side, although sightings occured periodically before the deployment of P-61 Black Widows in Europe, it was the night fighter pilots of Black Widows that were among the first American military men to regularly report seeing Foo Fighters, saying "unknown objects" followed or paralleled their planes and glowed in the dark. It is said the night fighters shot at them a few times, but the fire was never returned. It is also thought it was the pilots of the Black Widows that finally gave the UFOs the nickname that stuck: "Foo-Fighters," a term picked up from the then popular Smokey Stover comic strip.

Interestingly enough, with all the sightings and reports, and all the qun cameras and high altitude photographs, no truly GOOD pictures of Foo Fighters from the period have surfaced. The photo at the top of the page showing what is alledged to be both a wedge-shaped and spherical-shaped Foo Fighter together with two Japanese planes is perhaps the most often depicted when citing Foo Fighters. The photo, from the 1975 photo-history by G. De Turris & S. Fusco, "Obiettivo sugli UFO," has both its supporters and detractors. If the picture was taken by Japanese photographers, which it surely must have been, it would seem, except for a quest for truth, they would have no vested interest in continuing or falsely perpetrating a myth. If, however, the photo was altered after the fact that would be another story. The question to be asked, if you were going to alter a picture, why start with such a dumb photograph when there must be thousands upon thousands of other pictures one could select?
On July 16, 1945 at 5:29:45 a.m. Mountain War Time, at the Trinity Site, White Sands, New Mexico, somewhat west of the city of Roswell and long before it became famous for the Roswell UFO the first nuclear explosive device on Earth was set off.(see) Shortly after that test and especially so after the war the general New Mexico area was inundated by "green fireballs." Theoreticians in the Air Force believed the fireballs were propelled objects and not natural phenomena, bearing a very close similarity to Foo Fighters. Because it wasn't clear that the Foo Fighter-like fireballs were not natural, the noted astronomer and meteorite expert Dr. Lincoln La Paz was called in to investigate. La Paz, in agreement with the theoreticians, stated that normal fireballs (meteors) are seldom if ever green, their trajectory is forced on them by gravity, and leave meteorites when they plunge to Earth. The green fireballs sighted over New Mexico did none of these things. Neither did they appear to La Paz to be electrostatic phenomena as they moved too regularly and too fast.

fireball over the Sandia Mountains, New Mexico.
The La Paz investigation was called Project Twinkle. As the the investigation wound down a Project Twinkle memo to the Directorate of Intelligence, dated April 3, 1952 came to the conclusion:
"A logical explanation was not proffered with respect to the origin of Green Fireballs, it was however generally concluded that the phenomenon existed and should be studied scientifically until these occurrences can be satisfactorily explained. Further, that the continued occurrence of unexplained phenomena of this nature in the vicinity of classified installations is a cause for concern."
In today's world a Foo Fighter would be called a UFO, an Unidentified Flying Object, of which, by all accounts, Foo Fighters were. Some discriptions such as "glowing balls of light" or "spherical fire" match the aforementioned more-or-less Green Fireballs so described over the desert southwest and do not fit the conventional image of UFOs --- but the disc and wedge shaped objects do, as does the uncoventional manuverability. Both those aspects, disc or wedge shape and unconventional manuverability, have been attributed to many UFO or Flying Saucer accounts, but most especially so to one of the most high profile ones, the so-called Roswell UFO, wherein an object of unknown nature broke up over the barren ranchland near Roswell, New Mexico, late one night in July, 1947.
Although the Roswell Incident was originally reported in the local paper within a few days of the crash as being a flying saucer or a flying disc, the main body of the object that slammed into the lower north slopes of the Capitan mountains some 35 miles south of the debris field was reported by some eyewitnesses as being quite different. According to ROSWELL ARCHAEOLOGISTS: The Dirt Before The Dig as well as other sources such as found in the works of UFOlogist Thomas J. Carey, an archaeologist by the name of William Curry Holden reportedly stumbled across the downed craft early in the morning following the crash, one of the first to see it, and described it as "looking like a crashed airplane without wings with a flat fuselage" with some reports implying the fuselage had a definite delta or wedge shape to it. It must be stated in contrast, however, that another archaeologist, William Lawrence Campbell, known as Cactus Jack, albeit not nearly so high ranking or reputable in the field as Holden and classified by many as not much more than a Pothunter --- but who had nevertheless seen the aerial apparitions called Foo Fighters during World War II first hand himself --- reported being "out there when the spaceship came down" and seeing a "round object but not real big."
As stated previously, shortly after the atomic bomb test at Trinity Site, and especially so right after the war a couple of weeks later, the general New Mexico area was inundated by "green fireballs" and because of same famed astronomer Dr Lincoln La Paz was brought in to investigate. The exact date of the first green fireball is up for question, but just past mid August of 1945, around the time the first green fireballs were starting to show up in enough strength that they were becoming a concern to the powers that be, and a full two years before Roswell, a non-fireball hardshell object similar in scope to Roswell crashed into the desert near San Antonio, New Mexico. The following is from Meeting Dr La Paz and describes what was seen by an eyewitness:
"(A)fter spending a good part of the afternoon in a relative cool shaded area, including a nice siesta induced nap, my uncle gathered up his stuff and headed out to continue his biosearching, slowly wending his way on foot some distance into a section that was too rough for his vehicle. As the day was edging toward dusk he was jarred from his concentration first by the feeling of an intense blast of heat followed by a deep chest shuddering air-vibration caused by a huge, weird-shaped flying object, seemingly made of metal and whining like a sick vacuum cleaner that streaked in out of the sky almost directly overhead on a slightly down-angle from parallel to the ground. The object, as it crossed out of sight barely maintaining its height advantage above the undulating canyons and rock strewn hills, all the while traveling at an ultra high speed, by the sound of it, slammed hard, and somewhat explosively so, possibly before it even hit, into the rocks and soil some distance away."
The eyewitness hiked into the crash site but, in the process of scaling down to the object, injured his ankle and had to return to his truck. The next day he was taken to Los Alamos and questioned, of which one of the questioners was the green fireball investigator La Paz. When the witness secretly returned to the scene a week or so later the object was gone and the crash site reworked as though nothing had happened. The witness died forty-four years later (1989) and to his knowledge, from the time of having first seen the object until the time of his death, no one else had ever come forward and said they saw anything remotely related to the event. So too, even though La Paz was one of the questioners, if the 1945 San Antonio event was somehow related to the Foo Fighter-like green fireballs the witness never learned.
Almost all reported sightings, official and unofficial, of the aerial phenomenon given the name Foo Fighters during World War II and seen by pilots and flight crews on all sides of the action, when seen, were invairably observed only while the flight crews were airborn. There is a highly credible instance that happened in the South Pacific in August of 1942 when a whole formation of unidentified flying objects were observed from the ground that everybody who saw them agreed they could not have been enemy aircraft. The event is said to have occurred on August 12, 1942 on the island of Tulagi during a short lull in the raging battle leading up to Guadalcanal. Although there were hundreds if not thousands of Marines on the island that day and most if not all saw the objects, the lion's share for reporting the sighting as it comes down to most of the internet goes to Marine Sergeant Stephen J. Brickner. Brickner reported that when he heard air raid sirens going off he looked to the sky and observed over 150 objects flying directly overhead in straight lines of 10 or 12 objects, one behind the other. He said no wings or tails were visible and they seemed to "wobble" slightly as they flew over at a speed faster than he had ever seen before by enemy planes. He said their appearance was that of highly polished silver and that they shimmered brightly in the sun. In a second confirmation of the same event, also found on the internet but typically lost because of not being under a Foo Fighter context, and told a few years after the war, a young boy was sitting in a cafe in Redondo Beach, California owned by the infamous Madam Fifie Malouf with an ex-marine when a second ex-marine joined them in the booth. The following ensued:
"I was sitting in the cafe with a couple of the women, only this time the ex-marine taxi driver was there as well. Another ex-marine who apparently knew one of the women stepped up to our booth and invited himself to join us. It wasn't long before the two former marines discovered they both had been on Guadalcanal and in the process began to dominate the once shared conversation with nothing but war stories. That is, until the self invited ex-marine interjected a story about an unusual situation he observed. In August 1942 he was on Tulagi Island, a short distance southwest of Guadalcanal when he and a bunch of other marines observed some sort of flying objects that were different than anything he had ever seen. He said they were round and nearly flat, shaped almost like an upside down tin pie plate, with no wings or fuselage, glistening with a silver sheen."
With that one of the women butted in and told the ex-marine that was nothing because one night in February 1942 right there on the Strand, just south of the Edison steam generating plant, a huge, giant object, as big as a locomotive, came in off the ocean and flew right over the top of the Happy Hour Cafe and the apartments. She had heard a ruckus going on outside, sirens, guns firing, all kinds of stuff, so she went out on to the Strand only to see this "thing" a few hundred feet above the beach slowly glide overhead off the ocean, not making a sound and, because of its length, taking forever to pass over. The two ex-marines just looked at each other and went back to telling their war stories. I knew the event she was talking about because I had seen the object myself. Not only did it apparently fly over the Happy Hour Cafe, it flew right over the top of my house as well. About the object, which has become known as The Battle of Los Angeles: 1942 UFO, the following is presented in World War II Comes to Redondo:
"During the intervening period the the giant object of unknown origin, said to be 800 feet long --- the size of a Zeppelin --- withstood the continued pounding of 1440 direct hit anti-aircraft rounds with no signs of any ill effect. Eventually it headed back toward the coast turning south past the beach cities of Manhattan and Hermosa. When it reached Redondo Beach it turned inland again then south back out to sea between Long Beach and Huntington Beach, never to be seen again. The the true aspects of mystifying incident have never been answered. Some say it was the Japanese, although after the war they completely refuted any implication in the event. Others say it was pure mass hysteria. Without answers, a strong string of out-of-this world extra-terrestrial connontations has blanketed the phenomenon."

FAR FROM BEING A FOO FIGHTER, A HUGE ZEPPELIN-SIZE UFO
CAUGHT IN SEARCHLIGHT BEAMS OVER LOS ANGELES IN 1942
Not all aerial objects otherwise left unidentified in World War II, seen from the air, ground, or otherwise were fighter or bomber-size-like Foo Fighters or unexplained phenomenon such as Green Fireballs. Nor were any necessarily small in size either. Some were downright gigantic. The most infamous was an object seen by literally thousands of people along the coast of California barely three months into the war. The The Battle of Los Angeles: 1942 UFO is mostly forgotten now, but during the early morning hours of February 25, 1942 the whole city and surrounding communities were in an uproar as thousands of rounds of anti aircraft shells were expended to pull down whatever it was out of the sky that night. The slow moving object, said to be as big or bigger than a Zeppelin, was caught in the glare of the searchlights from Santa Monica to Long Beach and seemed impervious to the the constant barrarge of shells. It eventually disappeared out over the Pacific after cruising along the coast and cutting inland for a while. The huge object was never clearly explained and was basically hushed up without response from the authorities.
On Dec. 8, 1942, American forces in Kienow, China, spotted an unidentified plane heading toward them on a beeline from Formosa. Pilots Bob Scott and Johnny Hampshire approached it and discovered it was an old American P-40B Tomahawk bearing an insignia that hadn't been seen since Pearl Harbor. The pilot would not identify himself.
Fearing a trick by the Japanese, Scott and Hampshire fired briefly on the plane, but it sought neither to evade them nor to counterattack. Scott moved to the plane's farther side and saw that it had been badly damaged before they came upon it — the canopy had been shot away, the right aileron was gone, and part of the wing was missing. The pilot's head was slumped on his chest. Strangest of all, the P-40B had no landing gear — the wheel wells were empty.
Scott and Hampshire lost the plane in a cloud bank and then saw it crash in a rice paddy below. Who was the pilot, and where had the strange plane come from? No one knows, but after years of research Scott evolved a conjecture that it had been assembled by a small group of Air Corps personnel who had retreated from Bataan to Corregidor and then to Mindanao. If this is true it must have flown more than 1,000 miles through enemy airspace to reach China.
Japanese records confirm that there was an American P-40 over Formosa on Dec. 8, 1942, but where it came from, where it was headed, and indeed how it even got airborne remain a mystery.

THE FIRST SIGHTING OF A UFO FROM A POWERED AIRCRAFT:
The Flying Saucer craze that erupted on the national scene shortly following World War II is usually credited to a pilot named Kenneth Arnold from an observation of his while flying over or near Mount Rainer in the state of Washington. From the cockpit of his plane, and at a fairly high altitude Arnold reported spotting nine highly reflective, disc-like or crescent shaped objects flying in a loose formation off in the distance and below him --- all exhibiting non-aircraft like maneuvering and all traveling at an ultra high rate of speed.
However, Arnold's sighting was NOT the first from an aircraft. The first reported sighting of a UFO from an aircraft happened years before Arnold's sighting, during World War I and involved what seemed to be a Zeppelin --- but instead, turned out to be a huge unidentified flying object. According to ZEPPELINS: High Altitude Warships, on the night of January 19, 1915 two German navy Zeppelins carried out the first successful bombing run against British soil. One year later, although not exactly a Foo Fighter in the World War II classical sense, the FIRST sighting of a UFO from a powered aircraft EVER as well as the first firing on a UFO from the air occurred over England.
David Clarke and Andy Roberts write in their book OUT OF THE SHADOWS: UFOs, the Establishment and the Official Cover-up (London: Piatkus, 2002) that early in January 1916 at the fighter aerodrome at Rochford in Essex outside London around 8:45 PM Flight Sub-Lieutenant J.E. Morgan arose for an anti-Zeppelin patrol in his BE2c fighter. When Morgan reached 5,000 feet he saw a little above and slightly ahead to the right about 100 feet away what he described as "a row of what appeared to be lighted windows which looked something like a railway carriage with the blinds drawn."
Believing that he had flown directly into the path of an oncoming Zeppelin in the act of preparing to attack London, Morgan drew his service pistol and fired several times in the direction of the "railway carriage." Immediately, "the lights alongside rose rapidly" and disappeared into the night sky, so rapidly in fact that Morgan believed his own aircraft had gone into a dive. Overcorrecting his actually not out of control aircraft he crashed into Thameshaven Marshes.
A full account of Morgan's sighting, dubbed "an encounter with a phantom airship" appears in German Air Raids on Great Britain 1914-1918 by Captain Joseph Morris published in 1925. The book was compiled from then classified Air Ministry records, and Morris refers directly to the airman's report filed with the War Office. Extensive searches of the Royal Flying Corps records at the Public Record Office have failed to locate Morgan's original report. The station log from Rochford aerodrome does give brief details of Morgan's flight with the addition of the word "Zepp" which shows he did have an encounter with something he took to be an enemy airship.
Morgan's report is NOT included in the official account of the January 31, 1916 raid published by the War Office at the end of the conflict, which charts the movements of the Zeppelin raiders and the attempts by British fliers to intercept them in great detail. There is, however, additional support for the claim that an airborne object of some kind was present over southeastern England during the air raid. Another RFC pilot by the name of McClelland, reported seeing what he described as "a Zeppelin" caught briefly in the glare of searchlights above London at 9 pm, 15 minutes after Morgan's encounter.

Kostki – wieś w Polsce położona w województwie mazowieckim, w powiecie sokołowskim, w gminie Sokołów Podlaski.

W latach 1975–1998 miejscowość administracyjnie należała do województwa siedleckiego.

Mieszkańcy wyznania rzymskokatolickiego należą do parafii św. Wojciecha w Skibniewie-Podawcach.

Historia
W 1438 r. w sądzie drohickim występował rycerz Andrzej Kostka. Wcześniej, bo już w 1417 roku poznajemy jego żonę Dorotę (AGAD, Metryka Koronna, MK3, k.116v). Dorota żona Andrzeja ze Skibniewa, Jan i Piotr dziedzice z Kątów kwitują Miłosława z Raszyńca  z zadośćuczynienia za ich części w Raszyńcu.

Synami Andrzeja i Doroty byli zapewne bracia Wojciech i Paweł Kostkowie, żyjący w 2. poł. XV w. Wojciech występował już w 1458 r. W 1466 r. bracia dokonali działu dóbr, na mocy którego Wojciech wziął Skibniew. Część Skibniewa, którą posiadał to późniejsze Kostki (czyli Kostkowie). Natomiast Pawłowi przypadł w udziale Suchodół. Po połowie bracia podzielili się wsią Kiełczów. W 1467 r. obaj bracia byli świadkami nadania wójtostwa w Rogowie. Natomiast w 1469 r., jak podano w dokumencie, Wojciech Skibniewski i Paweł Suchodolski, bracia rodzeni, świadczyli przy nadaniu wójtostwa w Bacikach. Wcześniej – w 1454 r., Wojciech Kostka sprzedał część Dybowa z brzegiem rzeczki Sterdyni (dzisiejsza Buczynka) za 43 kopy groszy Maciejowi Dyszowi i Janowi z Dybowa.

Wojciech Kostka, po rezygnacji Macieja z Jabłonny, za zgodą króla i panów rady Wielkiego Księstwa Litewskiego został w 1470 r. podsędkiem ziemskim drohickim. Używał częściej nazwiska Skibniewski. Cieszył się poważaniem wśród okolicznej szlachty, o czym świadczyło częste powoływanie go na arbitra w sporach, np. w 1464 r. w sprawie wadium pomiędzy Osiną i braćmi ze wsi Cholewy i szlachtą z Dmochów, w 1476 r. Orzeszkowej i Czamborowej, w 1476 r. Anny Jakimowskiej i Andrzeja Jarnickiego, w 1477 r. przy podziale Stanisława Rospąda i Jana z Jabłonny. Sam również bywał stroną w sporach, np. w 1476 r. z Andrzejem Prostyńskim herbu Półkozic. Dzięki sprawowanemu urzędowi i zapobiegliwości mógł również gromadzić fortunę. Brał liczne dobra w zastaw: w 1475 r. od Tomasza Ratyńskiego część w Ratyńcu, w 1476 r. od Hrynka z Wirowa, w 1477 r. od bojarów z Hołowienek ich młyn, w 1478 r. Guty od Piotra Strumiłły, w 1483 r. od Sasina z Krynicy i jego syna Jana wieś Brzozów, a od pani Czamborowej i jej zięcia Jana wieś Nakory. Żył jeszcze w 1484 r., w następnym roku podsędkiem drohickim był już Jerzy Nieciecki herbu Gozdawa, najpewniej więc Wojciech zmarł. O jego zamożności świadczy chociażby to, że kształcił na uniwersytecie krakowskim dwóch synów: Andrzeja i Jerzego, którzy zapisali się na studia w 1474 r. Andrzej uzyskał nawet w 1477 r. tytuł bakałarza.

Andrzej syn Wojciecha został następnie kanonikiem płockim. W 1519 roku księżna Anna Konradowi prezentowała go na plebana w Wąsoszu w Ziemi Wiskiej.

Oprócz powyższych Wojciech Kostka miał jeszcze czterech synów: Krzysztofa - komornika sądu drohickiego w latach 1501-1522, Marka, Stanisława i Jana oraz co najmniej cztery córki: Annę żonę Jana Sasina z Krynicy, Ludmiłę żonę Augustyna Dobrogowskiego, Katarzynę żonę Pawła Węgrowskiego i Helenę żonę Stanisława Hornowskiego. Stanisław był żonaty z Małgorzatą córką Jakuba z Kałuszyna, której zapisał oprawę w 1504 r. w kwocie 14 kop groszy. W tym samym roku Helena Hornowska i Ludmiła Dobrogowska pozywały swych braci o części spadku po stryju Pawle Suchodolskim. Pochodzą od nich rodziny Kostków i Suchodolskich występujące w parafii Skibniew jeszcze w XVIII w. Bracia: Marek, Jan i Krzysztof poślubili trzy siostry córki Stanisława i Anny Kossowskich. Krzysztof ze Skibniewa i Stanisław zwany "Stawiany" spotkali się dwukrotnie w sądzie drohickim w 1501 roku. Do roku 1509 takich "spotkań" było jeszcze kilka. W jednym z przypadków sprawa dotyczyła pracowitego Macieja Kapusty ze Skibniewa.

Paweł Kostka brat Wojciecha w dziale wziął Suchodół i stąd pisał się Suchodolskim.

Calcium is required for the proper functioning of muscle contraction, nerve conduction, hormone release, and blood coagulation. In addition, proper calcium concentration is required for various other metabolic processes.
Maintenance of body calcium stores (to avoid hypocalcemia Hypocalcemia Hypocalcemia is a total serum calcium concentration 8.8 mg/dL ( 2.20 mmol/L) in the presence of normal plasma protein concentrations or a serum ionized calcium concentration 4.7 mg/dL ( 1.17... read more or hypercalcemia Hypercalcemia Hypercalcemia is a total serum calcium concentration > 10.4 mg/dL (> 2.60 mmol/L) or ionized serum calcium > 5.2 mg/dL (> 1.30 mmol/L). Principal causes include hyperparathyroidism, vitamin... read more ) depends on
Dietary calcium intake
Absorption of calcium from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract
Renal calcium excretion
In a balanced diet, roughly 1000 mg of calcium is ingested each day and about 200 mg/day is secreted into the GI tract in the bile and other GI secretions. Depending on the concentration of circulating parathyroid hormone (PTH) and active vitamin D, 1,25(OH)2D (1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol, calcitriol), roughly 200 to 400 mg of this calcium is absorbed from the intestine each day (see also Vitamin D Deficiency Vitamin D Deficiency and Dependency Inadequate exposure to sunlight predisposes to vitamin D deficiency. Deficiency impairs bone mineralization, causing rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults and possibly contributing... read more ). The remaining 800 to 1000 mg appears in the stool. Calcium balance is maintained through renal calcium excretion averaging 200 mg/day, which also depends on circulating PTH and calcitonin levels.
Both extracellular and intracellular calcium concentrations are tightly regulated by bidirectional calcium transport across the plasma membrane of cells and intracellular organelles, such as the endoplasmic reticulum, the sarcoplasmic reticulum of muscle cells, and the mitochondria.
Ionized calcium is the physiologically active form. Cytosolic ionized calcium is maintained within the micromolar range (< 1/1000 of the serum concentration). Ionized calcium acts as an intracellular 2nd messenger; it is involved in skeletal muscle contraction, excitation-contraction coupling in cardiac and smooth muscle, and activation of protein kinases and enzyme phosphorylation. Calcium is also involved in the action of other intracellular messengers, such as cAMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate) and inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate, and thus mediates the cellular response to numerous hormones, including epinephrine, glucagon, vasopressin (antidiuretic hormone), secretin, and cholecystokinin.
Despite its important intracellular roles, about 99% of body calcium is in bone, mainly as hydroxyapatite crystals. About 1% of bone calcium is freely exchangeable with the extracellular fluid and, therefore, is available for buffering changes in calcium balance.
Normal total serum calcium concentration ranges from 8.8 to 10.4 mg/dL (2.20 to 2.60 mmol/L). About 40% of the total blood calcium is bound to plasma proteins, primarily albumin. The remaining 60% includes ionized calcium plus calcium complexed with phosphate and citrate. Total calcium (ie, protein-bound, complexed, and ionized calcium) is usually what is determined by clinical laboratory measurement.
However, ideally, ionized (or free) calcium should be estimated or measured because it is the physiologically active form of calcium in plasma and because its blood level does not always correlate with total serum calcium.
Ionized calcium is generally assumed to be about 50% of the total serum calcium.
Ionized calcium can be estimated, based on total serum calcium and serum albumin levels (see Estimation of ionized calcium concentration Estimation of ionized calcium concentration Hypocalcemia is a total serum calcium concentration 8.8 mg/dL ( 2.20 mmol/L) in the presence of normal plasma protein concentrations or a serum ionized calcium concentration 4.7 mg/dL ( 1.17... read more ).
Direct determination of ionized calcium, because of its technical difficulty, is usually restricted to patients in whom significant alteration of protein binding of serum calcium is suspected.
Normal ionized serum calcium concentration range varies somewhat between laboratories, but is typically 4.7 to 5.2 mg/dL (1.17 to 1.30 mmol/L).
The metabolism of calcium and of phosphate (see Overview of Disorders of Phosphate Concentration Overview of Disorders of Phosphate Concentration Phosphorus is one of the most abundant elements in the human body. Most phosphorus in the body is complexed with oxygen as phosphate. About 85% of the about 500 to 700 g of phosphate in the... read more ) is intimately related. The regulation of both calcium and phosphate balance is greatly influenced by concentrations of circulating PTH, vitamin D, and, to a lesser extent, calcitonin. Calcium and phosphate concentrations are also linked by their ability to chemically react to form calcium phosphate. The product of concentrations of calcium and phosphate (in mg/dL) is estimated to be < 60 mg2/dL2 (< 4.8 mmol2/L2) normally; when the product exceeds 70 mg2/dL2 (5.6 mmol2/L2), precipitation of calcium phosphate crystals in soft tissue is much more likely. Calcification of vascular tissue accelerates arteriosclerotic vascular disease and may occur when the calcium and phosphate product is even lower (> 55 mg2/dL2 [4.4 mmol2/L2]), especially in patients with chronic kidney disease Chronic Kidney Disease Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is long-standing, progressive deterioration of renal function.

It has several actions, but perhaps the most important is to defend against hypocalcemia Hypocalcemia Hypocalcemia is a total serum calcium concentration 8.8 mg/dL ( 2.20 mmol/L) in the presence of normal plasma protein concentrations or a serum ionized calcium concentration 4.7 mg/dL ( 1.17... read more . Parathyroid cells sense decreases in serum calcium and, in response, release preformed PTH into the circulation. PTH increases serum calcium within minutes by increasing renal and intestinal absorption of calcium and by rapidly mobilizing calcium and phosphate from bone (bone resorption). Renal calcium excretion generally parallels sodium excretion and is influenced by many of the same factors that govern sodium transport in the proximal tubule. However, PTH enhances distal tubular calcium reabsorption independently of sodium.
PTH also decreases renal phosphate reabsorption and thus increases renal phosphate losses. Renal phosphate loss prevents the solubility product of calcium and phosphate from being exceeded in plasma as calcium concentrations rise in response to PTH.
PTH also increases serum calcium by stimulating conversion of vitamin D Vitamin D Deficiency and Dependency Inadequate exposure to sunlight predisposes to vitamin D deficiency.

This form of vitamin D increases the percentage of dietary calcium absorbed by the intestine. Despite increased calcium absorption, long-term increases in PTH secretion generally result in further bone resorption by inhibiting osteoblastic function and promoting osteoclastic activity. PTH and vitamin D both function as important regulators of bone growth and bone remodeling (see also Vitamin D Deficiency and Dependency Vitamin D Deficiency and Dependency Inadequate exposure to sunlight predisposes to vitamin D deficiency. Deficiency impairs bone mineralization, causing rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults and possibly contributing... read more ).
Radioimmunoassays for the intact PTH molecule are still the recommended way to test for PTH. Second-generation assays for intact PTH are available. These tests measure bioavailable PTH or complete PTH. They give values equal to 50 to 60% of those obtained with the older assay. Both types of assays can be used for diagnosing primary hyperparathyroidism or monitoring hyperparathyroidism secondary to renal disease, as long as normal ranges are noted.
PTH increases urinary cAMP. Sometimes total or nephrogenous cAMP excretion is measured in diagnosis of pseudohypoparathyroidism Pseudohypoparathyroidism Hypoparathyroidism is a deficiency of parathyroid hormone often caused by an autoimmune disorder or by iatrogenic damage or removal of the glands during thyroidectomy or parathyroidectomy.

Calcitonin is secreted by the thyroid parafollicular cells (C cells). Calcitonin tends to lower serum calcium concentration by enhancing cellular uptake, renal excretion, and bone formation. The effects of calcitonin on bone metabolism are much weaker than those of either PTH or vitamin D.

Chicken recipes are all time favorite of everybody. There are various reasons for that also. Chicken dishes are usually very tasty and also nutritious too. You can cook chicken dishes easily in your home with few ingredients. Chicken 65 is such a dish which is at a time very tasty and nutritious too. Basically it is one type of appetizer recipe and is a popular among worldwide. It is also a very easy recipe that you can prepare it quickly even if in a hectic working day. There are lots of styles that you can make chicken 65. Here the Andhra style that came with gravy is followed and curry leaves are used in typical south Indian dish. This style is very easy to cook and very tasty indeed.
Chicken pieces 250-300 gm (use boneless tender chicken pieces for this particular dish), Egg 1, Corn flour 1 table spoon (You may use rice flour instead of corn flour if you want crispiness), Refined oil for deep fry, Red chili powder ¾ tea spoon, Sugar ½ tea spoon, Garlic paste (make out from 2 cloves), Thick yogurt 2 table spoon, salt to taste.
Ginger Garlic paste ½ table spoon, Pepper powder ½ tea spoon, Turmeric powder ¼ tea spoon, Lemon juice 1 tea spoon/ Yogurt 1 ½ table spoon, Red chili powder ½ tea spoon, Salt to taste.
Cumin seeds ½ tea spoon, Garlic ½ tea spoon (chopped), Pepper powder ½ tea spoons, Green Chili 2, Curry Leaves 10-12.
First clean the boneless chicken pieces under running water completely and drain the excess water completely. For best results use Luke warm water instead of cold water. Take the chicken in a medium size bowl. Now add ginger garlic paste, red chili powder, turmeric powder, pepper powder lemon juice and salt to taste with the chicken. Mix the ingredients well and set it aside for at least 45 minutes to 1 hour. For best result marinate it overnight in the day previous you will prepare the dish.
To prepare the coating for the chicken you will need a batter which will comprise red chili powder ¾ tea spoons, sugar ½ tea spoons, garlic paste, thick yogurt paste and salt to taste. Now sprinkle the dry corn flour over the marinated chicken and add the egg here. Mix it well. If you do not want to add egg then you can add thick yogurt for it. You may sprinkle little water in to the batter to make a good binding for the chicken.
Now take a nonstick pan and heat oil in this pan that you can deep fry the chicken. Fry the chicken pieces until they turn golden in color. Cook the chicken in low flame to cook the chicken and make it soft from inside. Stir when you are frying them for even cooking. Place them on paper napkin to drain the excess oil from it.
To prepare the gravy heat 1 table spoon oil in a nonstick pan. Now add cumin seeds and green chilies. When the cumin seeds starts to splutter add curry leaves and fry until it turns crispy. Add ½ tea spoon of chopped garlic and ½ tea spoon of pepper powder. Add little yogurt,water and cook it till the mixture starts releasing bubble.
In this stage add the fried chicken and fry it in medium heat. Toss the chicken frequently and cook until the chicken absorbs moisture from the seasoning spice. Don't cook for long as the over cooking can make the chicken hard.

Iran Hajj quota increases: Official
The Hajj quota for Iranian pilgrims this year has been increased by 1000, an official said.
AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The Hajj quota for Iranian pilgrims this year has been increased by 1000, an official said.
Head of Iran's Hajj and Pilgrimage Organization Ali Reza Rashidian said a total of 87,500 pilgrims will go to Hajj this year, while the number of Iranian pilgrims last year stood at 86,500.
He added that Iran has submitted a request to Saudi Arabia for a 20,000 increase in the Hajj quota.
Rashidian went on to say that preparations are being made for sending the pilgrims to Saudi Arabia for this year's Hajj.
As for resumption of Umrah (minor Hajj) pilgrimage for Iranians, he expressed hope that with the efforts of the Foreign Ministry and cooperation from the Saudi side it would resume as soon as possible.
Hajj is a pilgrimage to Mecca that every able-bodied and financially able Muslim is obliged to undertake at least once during their lifetime.
Umrah is a pilgrimage to Makkah performed by Muslims that can be undertaken at any time of the year, in contrast to Hajj that must be performed in the month of Dhul Hajja in the lunar Hijri calendar.

My updated question
Its working in minimum record. but if i used this SP in max no.of record(I have 4200 Records). It shows the error as "#1456 - Recursive limit 255 (as set by the max_sp_recursion_depth variable) was exceeded for routine getFinal "

DELIMITER ;

A: MySQL does not support recursive calls, So you can not do that with traditional SQL queries.
You can build a function in your desired programming language that you use, Or I think you can use Stored procedure.

SIJ GROUP TAKES HOME EIGHT INNOVATION AWARDS
Ljubljana, 21 September 2022 – On Innovation Day, the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Slovenia presented its 20th national awards to the most innovative companies as well as innovators in companies and public research institutions. SIJ Group was presented eight awards at the regional and national level, the most prestigious being the Silver National Innovation Award for Development of a Wear Resistant Steel SIDUR 400 with Low Content of Alloying Elements. This ranks SIJ Acroni, the largest company in SIJ Group, among the top producers of special wear-resistant sheet metal.
A total of 45 Slovenian cutting-edge innovations competed for the national award. Tibor Šimonka, The President of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Slovenia and Senior Vice President of SIJ Group, expressed his satisfaction with the fact that the award-winning innovations include product and process innovations as well as marketing and social innovations, which means that "Slovenia boasts a wide and diverse range of companies and organisations that are able to innovate in a really broad field." He was critical of the fact that Slovenia has been considered a moderate innovator for many years, as it has not been invested enough in research, development, and innovation.
Innovation at SIJ Acroni
Among the many innovative solutions by SIJ Group companies which were recognised with regional awards, the innovation that impressed the experts most at the national level was Development of a Wear Resistant Steel SIDUR 400 with Low Content of Alloying Elements. This ranks SIJ Acroni, the largest company in SIJ Group, among the top producers of special wear-resistant sheet metal. "SIJ Acroni's SIDUR 400 steel is manufactured in line with the special requirements of the most demanding customers. This steel is the flagship of SIDUR's wear-resistant steels, which has further strengthened our position among competing producers of this type of steel. We take pride in the fact that steel made from scrap steel ingots achieves all the required functional properties. And, what is just as important, SIDUR 400 steel contains a lower proportion of alloying elements, which makes a positive impact on reducing our impact on the environment," emphasised Andrej Skumavc, Development Engineer for Special Steel Welding Technologies at SIJ Acroni.
"At SIJ Acroni, we have proven again this year that we are among the most innovative companies in Slovenia. SIJ Acroni is the only producer of wear-resistant steel in Slovenia, which further increases the significance of this innovation. SIDUR 400 steel is used for the most demanding products in engineering and construction, and our strategic goal is to become an even stronger supplier to companies involved in the manufacture of special road and rail freight vehicles," said Branko Žerdoner, CEO of SIJ Acroni, who is proud of the company's innovators.
In addition to the aforementioned national silver award (which is also the regional gold award), SIJ Acroni was also awarded the regional silver award for their innovation Technological Development of Stainless Steel Steelmaking Processes for Green Breakthrough, which saw a team of innovators develop a process for adding their own heavy feedback to the Argon Oxygen Decarburization (AOD) converter, which had a positive impact on reducing the carbon footprint and on productivity in the aggregate.We believe that SIJ Acroni grant winners Blaž Žerjav Jereb and Noel Gregorij, who ranked among the top five in the World Steel Association's steelChallenge competition in the steelmaking simulation, will also be among the future winners of the innovation awards of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Slovenia, proving that SIJ Group is successful in grooming talent among young innovators.
Innovation at SIJ Metal Ravne
At the regional level, SIJ Metal Ravne once again proved its innovative capacities with their gold-winning innovation Aerospace Industry in SIJ Metal Ravne – Market and Product Development and two silver-winning inovations: Optimisation of Steel Production Process and Heat Pipe Technology for Thermal Energy Recovery in Industrial Applications.They are especially proud of their highest-awarded innovation Aerospace Industry in SIJ Metal Ravne – Market and Product Development. In March 2020, SIJ Metal Ravne obtained the EN 9100 aerospace certification, which gives the company a green light to start developing products in one of the most demanding industries – the aerospace industry. After the company obtained the aerospace certification, the entire Slovenian steel industry embarked on a pioneering journey into the global aerospace market with fully integrated product and marketing activities.
Innovation at SIJ Ravne Systems
SIJ Group's strong position in the Slovenian innovation space was rounded off by SIJ Ravne Systems winning two regional awards – the gold award for their innovation A Device for Testing Blade Persistence against Impulse Loads in Contact with Real Materials and the silver award for their innovation Laser Cladding of Abrasion Resistant Materials on Industrial Knives for Recycling Plastics, Paper Production, Tire Production and Recycling Industry.
At SIJ Group, we are proud that our innovative efforts and their results have been recognised both at the regional and national level, especially as our innovations also contribute significantly to a lower carbon footprint in addition to improving product quality, providing new solutions for customers, and lowering costs, thus following SIJ Group's sustainable development strategy.
SIJ Group is the largest vertically integrated metallurgical group in Slovenia. Its products occupy leading positions in European and global niche steel markets. It is one of the ten largest business groups in Slovenia, among the largest Slovenian exporters, and one of the most important employers in Slovenia.
Unaudited financial data shows that SIJ Group generated EUR 730.4 million in sales revenues in the first half of 2022 (a 61.7 percent increase compared to the first half 2021), with 84.3 percent of this amount generated on foreign markets. Out of the EUR 99.4 EBITDA, the EBITDA margin of 13.6 percent was 3.9 percentage points higher than in the same period last year. By the end of the first half of 2022, SIJ Group reached EUR 52.4 million in net profit.

ONGC has come forward to lend a helping hand to the Tripura government towards making the northeastern state open defecation free (ODF).
During a simple programme, Gautam Kumar Singha Roy, ONGC executive director and Tripura Asset manager on Wednesday handed over a cheque of Rs 20 crore under the head of Jibandhara State Water and Sanitation Mission (JSWSM) to Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb at his official residence.
Singha Roy said this the first instalment of Rs 20 crore out of Rs 25 crore to the state account for ODF.
A total of 20833 families will be able to get household toilets out of the fund.
Meanwhile, Chief Minister Biplab Kr Deb praised the Oil & Natural Gas Commission (ONGC) for its support towards the people of Tripura and viewed that it has always been coming forward for the development of the state with its projects and CSR activities throughout the state.
It may be mentioned that the state-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) organised a cycle rally at Agartala recently to promote the eco-friendly mode of transport among citizens.

Cookie's Kids Children School Uniform Fashion Trends for 2019
Cookie's Kids, a New York City-based children's clothing store chain offering premium school uniforms, stresses the addition of accessories for one-of-a-kind looks.
New York, United States - March 20, 2019 /PressCable/ —
Cookie's Kids, a New York City-based children's clothing store chain boasting locations all throughout Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx and which has become famous for its incredible selection of premium uniforms, is offering tips to parents and students alike for making uniforms unique without breaking the rules. At the top of Cookie's list is the addition of accessories, which, when injected in a fun and creative way, can yield one-of-a-kind looks and styles.
To view the entire line of Cookie's Kids school uniforms, visit: https://www.cookieskids.com/school_uniforms.aspx
"We're seeing a trend of added flexibility when it comes to the styles of uniforms kids can wear in schools that demand them – but through accessorizing, these styles can be taken to a whole new level without breaking the rules," says a Cookie's senior company spokesperson. "Backpacks, jackets and shoes are all great ways to make a look unique; switching it up from ballet flats to sneakers can completely change the vibe of an outfit, as just one example."
For girls' accessories, Cookie's representatives suggest elements such as jumpers paired with white button-up uniform shirts that will make any young lady feel like a princess, and they also point to IZOD's khaki skater skirts paired with perfectly-fitted blazers or fitted red polos with a pair of casual slim-fit khakis rolled at the hem with floral sneakers.
When it comes to the boys, Cookie's reps find that adding the perfect belt to that shirt-and-tie ensemble is an effective way of personalizing an outfit, in addition to recommending pieces such as red polos and khakis as well as high-top Converse sneakers for out-of-the-ordinary combos.
Cookie's executives have also been studying the key influences on school uniform design in 2019, referencing themes of gender-neutrality, climate management and modesty that are dominating youth-geared fashion at the moment. According to Cookie's research, schools in 2019 and beyond want to make the right choices in managing the diverse student bodies they have while students themselves want to feel comfortable, stylish and modern in what they are wearing.
To this end, the trends in boys' clothing tends to lean towards slim-fit trousers and "city shorts," with short styles featuring a fixed waistband and slim fit to give pupils a cooler choice in the warmer months without compromising on sophistication, while the inverted pleat dominates modern girls' fashion, offering a way to introduce color and patterns into a school uniform.

US-China trade war, sea row in ASEAN summit spotlight
BANGKOK — Southeast Asian leaders will commit to conclude a long-delayed regional trade pact this year despite lingering odds to fend off risks from a protracted U.S.-China trade war when they gather for a weekend summit in Thailand. The Chinese sinking of a Philippine boat, which endangered 22 Filipino fishermen, is also expected to put the South China Sea territorial conflicts under the spotlight in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations meetings. The two-day summit gets underway Saturday in the Thai capital of Bangkok, where ASEAN was founded in 1967 in the Cold War era. Other key issues include the...
Australian PM: WTO needs mending to keep up with the times
SINGAPORE — Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison said Friday that the World Trade Organization needs mending to keep up with the times. Morrison said many leaders attending the Group of 20 summit in Osaka later this month share the view. "There is a strong consensus about the need to modernize the WTO and its rules," he said. "We need to mend it, we don't need to break it, and mending it requires a lot of partnership," he added. "Just now it's the technical practical things that need to get done." Morrison, who spoke at a lunch organized by the Australian...
UN agencies urge stronger efforts to stop illegal fishing
BANGKOK — Major United Nations agencies are urging key fishing nations to join efforts to fight illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing. The U.N. Food and Agricultural Organization and other groups made the call at a conference in Bangkok on Wednesday focused on helping protect fisheries and those working in the industry. Thailand is the world's biggest importer of tuna. It has one of the seven state-of-the-art centers in the region monitoring fishing vessels in real time to help control access to regional ports and curb illegal fishing. The centers are helping enforce the Port State Measures Agreement, which aims to...
China vows military action if Taiwan, sea claims opposed
SINGAPORE — China's defense minister warned Sunday that its military will "resolutely take action" to defend Beijing's claims over self-ruled Taiwan and disputed South China Sea waters. Speaking at an annual security conference in Singapore, Gen. Wei Fenghe did not direct the threat at the U.S. but loaded his address with criticism of activities by Washington, including support for Taiwan and leading so-called "freedom of navigation" operations in the strategic waterways that China virtually claims as its own. Wei said the People's Liberation Army would not "yield a single inch of the country's sacred land." China's ruling Communist Party maintains...
Singapore reportedly criminalizes publication of fake news
SINGAPORE — Singapore reportedly has passed a law criminalizing publication of fake news and allowing the government to block and order the removal of such content. The Protection from Online Falsehoods and Manipulation Bill passed Wednesday night by a vote of 72-9, a lawmaker with the opposition Worker's Party, Daniel Goh, said on Twitter. The law bans falsehoods that are prejudicial to Singapore or likely to influence elections and requires service providers to remove such content or allows the government to block it. Offenders could face a jail term of up to 10 years and hefty fines. Opponents in Parliament...

In the space of a few short summer weeks, Maxime Bernier has gone from grousing about how the government protects dairy farmers, to tweeting about "radical multi-culturalism", to quitting the Conservatives in a huff. He is setting out to redraw the political map.
"The Conservative Party is too intellectually and morally corrupt to be reformed," he told a press conference at which he announced the formation of a new, as yet un-named party. Given his track record, we can expect it to feature a variation of far-right anti-immigrant politics, perhaps modeled after the UK Independence Party (UKIP).
Bernier stressed the importance of opposing "supply management," using government policy to protect agricultural producers. This has been a source of conflict in the ongoing trade disputes between the Canadian government and Trump's White House. While Bernier's ideas about unfettered free markets appeal to "libertarians" and Ayn Rand disciples, nobody would seriously believe this sufficient to form a viable base for a national political party. But add a heaping dose of xenophobia and bigotry to the mix and it might be a different story.
Early in August, Bernier launched epic twitter rants against "extreme diversity" that left his Conservative Party reeling. They scrambled to hide how much of their base completely agree with him.
He's all for a wee bit of diversity, but against "more diversity" and dead set against "ever more diversity." And don't get him started on the "cult of diversity." Bernier tweeted: "More diversity will not be our strength, it will destroy what has made us a great country." This was no spur of the moment rant, but a long thread issued in both English and French. "I hereby officially declare the death of political correctness in Canada," tweeted Bernier (in both official languages) on August 19.
Pressure grew for Tory leader Andrew Scheer to discipline Bernier, up to and including expelling him from caucus. After days of waffling, Scheer put out a bland public statement saying that Bernier held no official position, and therefore did not speak for the party. Far from stifling Bernier, Scheer's response only emboldened him.
Bernier has been carrying the Tory banner in Quebec since 2006. He held several cabinet posts in Harper governments. As Minister of Industry he was a privatization and deregulation enthusiast. So much so that his haste brought him into conflict with Harper's more cautious approach. He was shuffled over to Ministry of State, where he distinguished himself by leaving a top-secret briefing book behind after a sleep-over at the home of a woman with whom he was having an affair.
He was booted to the back benches and spent the next few years rebuilding a base within the party, with an eye to replacing Harper. As he told the press: "[P]eople got to know me. They saw that I had good ideas, that I wasn't an idiot." Bernier is nothing if not an opportunist. Adding more overtly anti-immigrant rhetoric to his repertoire gained support in the old Reform Party bastions of the west.
Much of the secret to Stephen Harper's unite-the-right success lay in recruiting members and votes from socially conservative sections of immigrant communities—and to do that he needed to muzzle but not extinguish his racist Reform Party base. Scheer has sought to stick to that template, but lacks Harper's authority over the party gears, in part because of Bernier's prominence.
The difference between Bernier and his Tory caucus mates is often blurred. Scheer and the rest have spent months trying to demonize asylum seekers as a flood of "illegals" ready to storm our borders. Earlier this summer the Tories crossed the line from dog-whistle to overt racism, with a meme showing a Black man pulling a suitcase towards a broken fence, across a bridge made from a Justin Trudeau tweet. Outrage forced Scheer to remove the scummy meme from his web site. Bernier would not have backtracked.
In the wake of Bernier's bigoted tweets (and Scheer's milk-toast attempts to reassert his control) came news that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's popularity rebounded. A significant jump in Liberal Party memberships and donations led to rumours that Trudeau might call a snap election.
Not that the Liberals are above blowing the racist dog-whistle themselves. The appointment of former Toronto police chief Bill Blair to a newly created cabinet portfolio of "Border Security and Organized Crime Reduction" showed the Liberals trying to stake out their own piece of anti-immigrant sentiment. But next to Bernier the Liberals seem almost benign. Here was a chance to shore up their left flank, and to distract from their nationalization of the Kinder Morgan pipeline.
Waiting for a Tory to do the right thing? I'd say he doesn't get it. Maybe the NDP is more focused on winning his own seat in Parliament than in mounting a spirited fight against the rise of the racism in Canada.
As I write, the wounded Tories are headed into their annual policy meeting. Normally I would welcome a Tory turf war, but this playing with racism can only be disastrous. Even if it ends with a rejuvenated Liberal Party, it will be one which is conceding ground to racist arguments. If you define "the right" as the Tory party, yes it cannot help but be disunited. But meanwhile the whole political terrain will have shifted to the right.
Mainstream commentators focus on Parliament—whether other Tory MPs would follow Bernier as he bellows, "Racist Avengers, assemble!" Likely they will not, dependent on Party organization and coffers for their re-election and perks. But it will be at the roots of the party, in the riding associations and among door-knocking activists, that the disruptions will come. It is not inconceivable that Bernier will be able to pull enough support to become the racist gadfly this country does not need.
A quick look at the dangerous rise of the right around the world shows that this is no time for such political games.

The experience was horrible, don't go there & get the same results. First, the child's sippie cup straw was chewed so badly that you could not get any drink. Not to mention that it could not have been properly cleaned in its condition. We should have known that this was ignored by the busboy, dishwasher, and server that the meal would not end well.
Next, the kid's portion of 5 fried shrimp and 10 French fries for 7.95 was pathetic, it would have been better to microwave a box of bargain butterfly shrimp from the grocery for $1. The steak fries were hard & tasteless, leftovers from prior night's baked potatoes. Lastly the sweet tea is instant & tastes like it. Normally not a deal breaker, but just one more gripe. The hamburger was order rare, and came out well done. We asked to speak to the manager repeatedly. Once every other customer left, the manager cleared the last table & couldn't ignore us anymore. She said we couldn't get a discount for the burger because we didn't mention it earlier. We said this was because she wouldn't come to our table. She said she was tired of listening to our complaints & we needed to leave.
Terrible Experience all the way around.

We've been to this restaurant a few time, hoping the food would improve but no such luck. On our last visit the waiter was very rude and the service was terrible. The waiter told us that the coupons from International Dining Club were no longer being honored. When I asked the person in charge about this, he just pointed to a small hand written sign behind him on the wall and said that's the way it is. Also, the place is extremly noisy.
