From
the Presidents Desk
Welcome to our November
District & City Court Clerks Certification Meeting. When
we people join together, it is a great time to make contacts and meet new friends.
In a way we are a very special group.
As the Holidays once again
approach us, I would like to take this opportunity to wish all of you and your
loved ones a Happy Thanksgiving, A Merry Christmas, and a very prosperous New
Year.
There is nothing permanent in
life except " change", and I am sure that all of you realize that we
are facing many new changes this coming year. I feel that it is very important
for all of us to work together as a group and pay special attention to our
speakers, because after all, they took of their time and effort to be here for
us.
The new Legislative Updates are in. Please make a point of picking up your copy at the Registration Table.

Planning a turkey for
Thanksgiving or Christmas?
Think about this: get a bag full
of Morton "Tender Quick", available at most stores. Pour a cup full
into a container, fill with enough water to cover your bird and pour in enough
ice cubes, to keep it cool for 12 to 24 hours. Remove and rinse. Smoke, or
roast as usual. The meat will come out delightfully pink, tender and juicy, and
you will not taste the salt. "Like to hear from you on this
one".
Let’s
talk about coffee:
A German housewife, Militta Benz, invented the first coffee filter. Tired of
brewing coffee directly in the water, she took some blotting paper, put it in a
brass pot that she had poked holes in, and poured the boiling water over the
coffee, through the filter, and into the pot. It was the first drip coffee
maker, and the Benz family began manufacturing Melitta
Coffee Makers.
Sparkling clear windows: Try wiping them with a coffee filter instead
of a paper towel and eliminate the lint.
NO
SPLATTER MICROWAVING:
Cover you dish with a coffee
filter before popping it into the microwave. Not only will it cook faster, but
also you will never have to clean food splatters off the inside of your mic. again.
DRIP CATCHER: Popsicles or ice cream on a stick leak? Just
poke the stick of a frozen treat through a coffee filter, they will catch the
drip, and it will save clothes and rugs.
