A RECIPE FOR STAYING YOUNG
By Paul Puckett
In 1938 , as a result of a series of ìtrial and errorî experiments, a soft frozen dairy
product was finally created. Two years later, the first Dairy Queen opened in
Joliet, Illinois. Today, Dairy Queen has grown to be one of the largest fast food
systems in the world, with over 5900 restaurants in the United States, Canada,
and 20 other foreign countries.
Ali Momin began his association with Dairy Queen while living in the Atlanta
area. Working his way up to manager there over a seven year period prepared
him for a ìmanagement with ownershipî position at the Shorter Avenue Dairy
Queen store in Rome. He moved there in the year 2000. As with most of the
other DQ operations, he actually owns his businessÖwhich includes a Dairy
Queen franchise. Since his store was the first DQ location to open in Rome (over
40 years ago) it is known by DQ corporate as Store #1 of Rome. Ali has earned
exceptionally high marks since he became owner-operator. Store inspectors
and patrons alike have nothing but good things to say about his store.
Those of us who have enjoyed DQ ice cream cones over the years have come to
expect the little curl on top. Believe it or not, that is actually a trademarked feature
of DQÖthe “Curley Q” . In fact, Dairy Queen managers stress the importance of
making that curl just rightÖeven on the popular ìcone-dipped-in-chocolateî.

As a native Iowan and excellent customer of the Internal Revenue

Department of Homeland Security† in an effort to determine the process
for becoming an illegal alien and they referred me to you.
My primary reason for wishing to change my status from U.S. Citizen to
illegal alien stems from the bill which was recently passed by the
Senate and for which you voted. If my understanding of this billís
provisions is accurate, as an illegal alien who has been in the† United
States† for five years, all I need to do to become a citizen is to pay a
$2,000 fine and income taxes for three of the last five years. I know a
good deal when I see one and I am anxious to get the process started

Diet Change May Ease ADHD
Paying Top Prices & Commission on All
An article authored by Nina Larson credits changes in diet with the successful
treatment of hyperactivity in children.
Gold, Silver, Platinum.
As part of a long-term study that began in 1996-1997 in the southwestern
Norwegian town of Stavanger, 23 children aged four to 11 ó all suffering from
hyperactive disorders including ADHD ó were put on milk-free and/or gluten-
free diets. Researchers have monitored their development ever since in a quest
to prove a theory by scientist Karl Ludvig Reichelt that a metabolic disorder hinders
the adequate breakdown of certain proteins in kids suffering from hyperactive
disorders.
Eating certain foods like milk and gluten may accelerate ADHD in the children,
because they lack an enzyme that breaks down proteins like casein (which is
found in milk and enables milk-clotting to make cheese), Moreover, the missing
or inhibited enzyme has an opium-like effect on the childrenís brains. By reducing
the intake of foods containing proteins that require casein for proper digestion,
the patientsí hyperactivity can be controlled.
Scrap Metal, Dental Gold,
Coins, Bars,etc.
In the study, 22 of the children taken off milk products and other foods containing
casein showed an almost immediate improvement in their mental health, including
