Just picked up an xbox last night.

I had $30 in certificates at bestbuy. Picked up a year membership for $35 since I bought the bundle pack. Halo reach and fable three, 3month membership, 250h.d for 250 doll hairs. Then the guy took 20 bucks off the total purchase.

Alright ***** XBOX vs PS3 in MW3.

A set of XBOX players accept the challenge on PS3 console. Then the other way around.
2 matches of every game mode.

^ LOL funny Jeff!

It's actually pork chop so it has to be well done. Marinated the meat for a few hours with chili powder, fresh chopped up garlic, white pepper powder, oyster sauce, soy sauce, Chinese cooking wine (fuzhou style), sesame oil. Baked for about 20 minutes in 420 degree.

Edit: In short.. secret recipe was ching-chong-sauce.

Pork no longer needs to be cooked well done. Thats a thing of the past, at least in the U.S when I do thick cut pork chops or a pork loin I like cooking it to meduim.

Yeah FDA said 165 is no longer necessary. Which is good because I dont think there has been a recorded case of Trichonosis in the US in the last 6 years. And if there has I dont see it being more than 10 people and they are probably Asian.

A co-worker of mine spent almost a month in hospital due to Trichinosis. During that time he had visits from the FDA and CDC trying to find the source. Difficult to determine were he got it b/c he had been eating out a lot a couple weeks prior to him getting sick, but ate some pork sausages from Giant a few days before.

Never bake with a time in mind. It's never the same, pork will be thicker or thinner, the oven will run hotter/less hot. Even when we bake cakes, we use time on the low end to get an idea of where it needs to be but then check it with a thermometer to get it perfect every time.

Set the temp and forget about it until it goes beep beep beep beep.

I cook batches of meet every week, and to this day I still use a meat thermometer.

Just got done cooking a batch of chicken breast for the week. Protein for lunches at work.

Trichinosis is a parasitic roundworm disease. Human cases of trichinosis have been associated with eating undercooked homemade sausage that contains pork or horse meat, as well as eating walrus or bear meat. Because many states have adopted laws requiring that all garbage fed to hogs be sterilized, fewer people get trichinosis today. Although trichinosis is very uncommon in the United States today, it is found occasionally in rural areas.
Bottom line, you have a better chance at getting E coli from MCDs then you do at getting worms from pork. Does that mean it never happens? No, but the odds are low. I also just ate over easy eggs with super runny yokes today MmMmmmmmm soooo good who doesn't love salmonella.


**** happens, but the odds are better you'll die today while driving home before picking up worms from pork. Even if you do get unlucky and catch it, most times it passes on its own.

How is it treated?

Most people who have a mild infection get better without treatment.

For more severe symptoms, your healthcare provider may prescribe mebendazole or prednisone. Take all your medicine as prescribed. If you quit taking your medicine before you have taken all of it, the infection may come back.

If you have a severe infection, you may need to stay at the hospital. Your healthcare provider may prescribe high doses of corticosteroids. This medicine helps to control the symptoms. After 24 to 48 hours of high doses, you may then need lower doses for several days or weeks at home.
