So tomorrow I'm going for a long weekend to the south of Portugal, Faro, with my girls. It's quite late now, I m not quite packed yet and between a strong desire to just hit the bed, I also feel obliged to still do my nails... damn it, life choices!
Ok, I did start the packing for tomorrow only today after work (I should have known...), but why it has to be so time consuming??? Is three days, for God sake...
And even though I have spent last two hours trying to decide which 2 out of my 12 summer dresses I prefer the most (settled down for 4 of them), even though my one piece of hand luggage is completely full, I would always find the space for this dress found on nasty gal and the shorts from quail:
For now I'm off, wish me sun! :)
PS: Forget the nails, will do them in the morning... zzzzz...zzzz....

Moira is officially in the stage where she is a handful. She has stopped falling over so often, which makes her more willing to wander all over the house and get into things. In the past few days I have; fished her out of the laundry closet, watched her try to open a drawer in the kitchen, picked up the books she pulls off the shelf 10 times and wandered around the kitchen twice before finding her. I could hear her and I knew she was in there somewhere, but I couldn't see her. She was over by the garage door.

She's also started to babble more. She likes to say "dadadadat!" when she's happy, and when she is fussy she cries and crawls over to me saying "maomaom." She is also trying to get the hang of "ta" sounds, because I like to say "Tada!" and raise her hands in the air when I'm showing her how to crawl off the bed safely. And also sometimes, just because it's fun.
Lastly, she's now into dinner. We give her chunks of food from our dinner (still mostly veggies and meat, sometimes rice or barley) and she actually puts in her mouth and chews and attempts to swallow, and when her piece is gone she gets annoyed and demands more. She's started to get fussy around dinner time now, a state that seems to only be fixed by sticking her in the high chair.
We got a new stroller (my first finished goal from my 101 things list!) that will actually go through the woods, so we tried that out to go to the store today. It seemed to be a hit (after the initial fussing because I was putting her in a strange object) after the second time we went bumping over tree roots.

Lymphedema on Ellen + Armsleeve Giveaway!
For our final giveaway in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, you can win a Solidea compression armsleeve of your choice! We hope that promoting awareness about lymphedema will help to educate both patients and doctors. Many people develop this condition after undergoing cancer treatment, and others are born with it. Lymphedema can affect many parts of the body, but most common are swollen arms and legs.
The Washington Post recently released an article about a newborn twin who was born with lymphedema. The doctor could not figure out what caused the twin's badly swollen legs. The mother, Heather Ferguson, was simply told to keep an eye on it to see if the symptoms got worse. "That was the worst moment," she recalled. "It's so horrible to know that something's wrong and to get the brushoff. I felt like we were on our own and that the medical system had just washed its hands of us."
When a doctor figured out that the baby was suffering from lymphedema (thanks to searching the Internet), Ferguson was told to go back to the pediatric surgeon, not a lymphedema therapist. The surgeon again just advised to keep an eye on it. Without treatment, people with lymphedema are prone to infections and can develop complications. Going untreated can also make everyday tasks very difficult if not impossible. It is extremely important to educate medical professionals and patients who are at risk about this condition to catch it early on before symptoms get worse.
Many people are unaware that they have lymphedema until it is already moderate to severe due to the lack of awareness and education about the condition. Hundreds of millions of people around the world suffer from lymphedema, yet many doctors know nothing about it and just brush symptoms off. While there is no cure for lymphedema, compression garments are used to manage and provide relief for symptoms.
BrightLife Direct wants to help promote education and awareness about this condition to better the lives of people suffering lymphedema and to get patients the treatment they need. You may have seen people posting #LymphedemaOnEllen videos on YouTube to help build awareness. We hope to see lymphedema on Ellen soon! You can check out our video above. Comment on our blog to share your favorite #LymphedemaOnEllen videos.

Why Some Online Community Members Last Longer than Others
As a manager, you need to understand that online communities host transient members. Though they have are some long-term participants, most members leave after a while for a variety of reasons. Often times, their departure has nothing to do with the community itself, but rather that it's their time to move on:
Nothing new to gain: Many people join online communities to receive and share information, and after they've taken everything they can from the group, they move on. Their leaving isn't an affront or insult; they just feel that they've benefited all they can from that particular network.
Too much negativity: If bullies, trolls, and malcontents take over a community, they're going to drive everyone away. Keeping a community positive helps ensure a positive mix of both old and new members.
No time to participate: Many people join online communities with the best of intentions but find that they just don't have the time to participate. Either they check in only sporadically, or their membership declines to nothing at all.
Same old, same old: The same people talking about the same things all the time doesn't make for a very interesting community. Introducing fresh topics and new members can keep existing members coming back for more.
Too much change: In some communities, longtime members often miss the "good old days" and don't relate well to new members, who may come in with new management. Longtime members who are set in their ways aren't always open to change, so be careful not to change too many things at once, or you may drive away some of the regulars.
Also, roll out new rules and changes a little at a time. Abrupt changes throw people off.
Poor management: When negative members prevail or spam is left up for days, members begin to feel that management doesn't care, and they move on.
The communities that have the most long- term, active members are those that remain positive and introducing with fresh new topics and ideas often. Making changes is okay, but be sure that you know your members well so that you can monitor how they'll react to any changes. Long-term members understand that change is good; they just don't want to feel as if you've forgotten about them.

Man shot dead by UK police, 5 arrested; inquiry begins
LONDON – An investigation has been launched after British police fatally shot a man during an operation in which five other people were arrested.
West Yorkshire police said the operation "related to information received about criminal possession of a firearm," and was not related to terrorism.
Soldier in Army jacket attacked after Philadelphia parade, family says
The man who was killed was identified as 27-year-old Mohammed Yassar Yaqub of Huddersfield. His family issued a statement through a lawyer saying they are "in shock and distraught."
Police shootings are rare in Britain and there is an automatic investigation when someone is killed. Police say they are cooperating with the Independent Police Complaints Commission.
The commission said in a statement that a firearm was found in the car Yaqub was traveling in and is being examined. The statement said it did not appear to be a police weapon.

The man was shot Monday evening on a highway near Huddersfield, 190 miles (305 kilometers) north of London. The arrests were made at two locations.
At the scene, a silver Audi with bullet holes in its windshield was surrounded by other vehicles Tuesday morning as police and forensic teams continued their investigation.

My visit to New York, a convention of computer nerds, a few months ago turned into quite a productive time. While I was there I got to visit some of the powerhouse day traders that use a multiple monitor arrangement to power their trades. It was quite an experience
and I wanted to share with you how some of these guys were using their multiple monitor computers and the type of multiple monitor arrangements that they were using. The crazy thing about these guys is that they've been using incredibly powerful Super-PCs for years, and most them just kind of assume that you are too. So I really had to drill them on the perks of their particular multi-monitor arrangement and why they might be using it.
The first guy that I talked with had a penthouse on Wall St. and he was quite unapologetic about it. He referred to himself as the Jew that sells things people can't afford to those who don't need it. In fact, he was bragging about how if he ran out of things to sell, he'd just make something up! You don't get much more Wall St. than this guy, let me tell you. Anyways, he what really important here is that this guy had an 8 monitor, multiple monitor arrangement that took up the better part of a wall. As you can imagine seeing these monitors stacked, 2 on top of each, straight across his wall, was pretty cool. He is the type of guy that talks a big game, but runs an even bigger one. He trades stocks and bonds and really knows his stuff. He told me a lot of cool tips, but one of the things that stands out the most to me was hearing that most of the time, it's just about being in the right place at the right time. I thought about this for a minute, and he later confirmed that I was correct in thinking, that having multiple monitors is what gives him the ability to really visualize the market, almost like it's in 3-D and then make trades accordingly. It really made sense. His multiple monitor arrangement was at the heart of being able to make smart market decisions quickly and on time.
I pressed him for information on what was powering his multiple monitor arrangement. Apparently hardware is relatively important. He said that the most important aspects of any multiple monitor computer was the processor, RAM (or memory) and the video cards. In his case he was using an Intel i7 with 6 gigabytes of ram. The machine was really powerful. It could easily run the 8 monitors that shaped like a "C" and surrounding his multi-monitor workstation. When I got to test drive his system I found it impressive that his multiple monitor arrangement didn't cause neck or eye-strain because of the way it was positioned. This had been a concern of mine when I first thought about dealing with these mega multi-monitor systems. Once again, I was proved mistaken and took this as a lesson.
My next series of questions were really about where and when he bought his multiple monitor arrangement. He told me that initially he had considered building a system on his own, but decided that he'd rather consult with an expert to build his system. After a lot of deliberation, he decided on multi-monitors.com because they have a good reputation for really high quality computers and being experts in an industry where there are few true experts. Multi-monitors.com has been around since 2006 and provides multiple monitor arrangements for some of the nation's biggest groups, including the Navy. They've become a reliable source for all things multiple monitors.
If you've been considering purchasing a multiple monitor arrangement, now is the time to do it. There are lots of great benefits to running a multiple monitor computer, but probably the best is simply that will allow you to both increase and improve your business. If you are not sure where to buy your new multiple monitor arrangement, then consider multi-monitors.com. They come highly recommended because of their professionalism and high quality products.

By Joseph Kolb
ALBUQUERQUE N.M. (Reuters) - Just two days before classes resume, New Mexico's biggest school district faces a shortage of almost 200 teachers, officials say, with the majority of the unfilled positions in special education and elementary grades.
With some 87,000 students due to return to Albuquerque Public Schools (APS) on Wednesday, the district is still looking for 392 staff, including 198 teachers.
APS spokeswoman Johanna King said the shortages represented just a small fraction of the district's total teacher roster of around 6,300. But she said they were a challenge.
APS will likely need short- and long-term substitutes, and it would also ask teachers to sacrifice some of their preparatory time in order to take on more classes and to have bigger class sizes.
APS requires that substitute teachers have at least 60 college credits, while other districts require a high school degree.
The elementary and special education areas are typically problematic, King said. "It's not unusual for those departments to deal with teacher shortages all year," the spokeswoman said.
She said APS did see an uptick in retirements after the last school year, but could not say why.
Some recently retired teachers said that some colleagues have decided to leave the profession because a new grading system for teachers places unrealistic expectations on educators by tying their scores closely to their students' performance. Too many factors are not under the control of the teachers, say critics of the new system.
There is "no consideration of high rates of poverty in New Mexico, which ranks among the highest in the country, transient populations and special needs," said one recently retired teacher, Rachel Muniz.
Teacher morale also took a knock earlier this year, Muniz said, when New Mexico Governor Susan Martinez was recorded saying in a campaign meeting that teachers were well paid, given they have two or three months vacation a year.
Larry Beherns, spokesman for the New Mexico Public Education Department, said he could not provide current numbers for teacher vacancies statewide.
But Beherns said the new teacher evaluation system is "critical in improving education," saying that the federal government said the old way of doing things was "broken."

How can parents help reduce anxiety for children starting new dance classes and activities?
Starting anything new can bring on anxiety, in adults or children. Starting a new Dance or Activity class with a very young toddler or pre-schooler can be a major milestone for experiencing anxiety for the first time. Here are a few suggestions to help you and your child work through their feelings and get comfortable in their new environment.
Prepare them in advance
Before attending a new activity or class, talk with your child about what they will be doing. View the website page about the class and show the child pictures or videos of the building, classroom, the teacher(s) and even previous students of children doing the activity. You can show in a story telling format, so they better understand what they will be doing and what will be expected of them in class.
If the activity has an open house or meet and greet, try to attend to better introduce them to the new environment before the activity starts. If they don't offer this, request a tour or to drop by and visit the classroom/teacher in advance.
Ease them in slowly
Be prepared to sit on the sidelines with your child just to observe the class. Don't pressure them to participate. While you're watching, create a dialogue that explains what is happening and how much fun it looks.
Bring a Friend
Sometimes, just having something accompany them to class is all they need. A doll or a stuffed animal sometimes does the trick. Sometimes the teacher may even allow them to dance with the item of choice.
Bring a little "Magic"
Sprinkle some imaginary "magic or brave dust" on your child. Tell the child that the dust makes them brave and strong so they can get through dance class with lots of fun and sparkle.
Implement the Buddy System
If the child is upset and hesitant to join the group, try pairing them with a buddy in class. Tell them that one is peanut butter and one is jam. They have to stick together. Keep in mind of who you are pairing them with. If you're trying a new activity, try to sign up with close friends or relatives so they go in knowing others. If the class involves parents, tell your child YOU are their BUDDY :)
Be Positive and Firm
Sometimes children just are not ready to separate. Even if they go to school and separate with no problem, an extra class might be pushing them over the edge. Each parent must feel confident that the child can do it. Changes in schedule, a new baby in the house, or a family move can all set off separation anxiety in an otherwise well-adjusted student.
Many classes hesitate to let the parents in the room for the classes, even for the first time, because then the students will want it to happen every week. Each studio has their own rules and you will need to stick to them, but remember, every child is different. Use your best judgement when it comes to helping young children separate. If you feel you or your child isn't ready to be alone yet, find an activity that allows for parent participation or observing the class with you. It can be an excellent opportunity for both child and parent to enjoy an activity together and get some fitness in at the same time!
Try Dance Basics for Pre-schoolers as your first step into the "Dance World", you can learn to dance along with your child in a relaxed and friendly environment.

Release 09-68
|Leo Kay
SAN DIEGO: The Air Resources Board today adopted amendments to help business owners comply with its pioneering 2007 regulation aimed at reducing toxic diesel emissions from the state's estimated 180,000 off-road vehicles such as tractors and bulldozers used in construction, mining and other industries.
The changes to the regulation implement legislation signed by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger in February to provide temporary relief to firms that have reduced used of their vehicles due to downsizing or work stoppage. Fleets will be able to use credits to delay retrofitting their existing equipment with pollution controls or purchasing new equipment. The changes will not repeal or delay general implementation of the rule.
"This harsh economy calls for flexibility and creativity when dealing with new regulations if we are to continue to make progress in reaching the goal of healthy air for all Californians," said ARB Chairwoman Mary D. Nichols. "These changes will allow the hardest-hit fleets to postpone their compliance costs until the current recession has eased. We will still achieve dramatic diesel emission reductions, but over a slightly longer timeframe."
Because many diesel engines lack emission controls and can remain in use for 30 years or longer, they will contribute to air pollution for years to come. The regulation adopted in 2007 - the first of its kind in the nation -- requires installation of diesel soot filters and replacement of older, dirtier engines with newer emission-controlled models according to a staggered timeline, depending on fleet size. By 2020, the rule will reduce diesel particulate matter by 74 percent and smog-forming oxides of nitrogen by 32 percent, compared to what emissions would be without the regulation.
The changes will also allow fleets to delay a portion of their compliance obligations for 2011 and 2012 until 2013. The Board also approved changes recommended by staff, including exempting vehicles that are retrofitted ahead of schedule from being replaced in the future, and allowing small-and medium-sized fleets to buy a filter today instead of having to buy two in a future year.
According to ARB estimates, over its course, this rule will prevent at least 4,000 premature deaths statewide and avoid $18 - $26 billion in premature death and health costs.
Requirements and deadlines vary depending on fleet size. For small fleets, which include businesses or municipalities with a combined horsepower of 2,500 or less, implementation does not begin until 2015. Medium fleets, with 2,501 to 5,000 horsepower, have until 2013, while large fleets, with over 5,000 horsepower, must begin complying in 2010. Affected vehicles include bulldozers, loaders, backhoes and forklifts, as well as many other off-road diesel vehicles.
Diesel particulate matter, or diesel "soot," was identified as a toxic air contaminant in 1998. In 2000, the ARB established California's Diesel Risk Reduction Plan, which aims to reduce diesel emissions to 85 percent below 2000 levels by 2020. Other sources of diesel particulate matter such as big rig trucks, transit buses, trash trucks, cargo-handling equipment and ship auxiliary engines have already been addressed through regulations, along with diesel fuel.
The Air Resources Board is a department of the California Environmental Protection Agency. ARB's mission is to promote and protect public health, welfare, and ecological resources through effective reduction of air pollutants while recognizing and considering effects on the economy. The ARB oversees all air pollution control efforts in California to attain and maintain health based air quality standards.

Regina, SK, 7 November 2011: The Frontier Centre for Public Policy has released a report today entitled More Immigrants Required to Maintain Saskatchewan's Boom. The report recommends that the province increase its immigration intake by 2,000 more immigrants to 10,000 by 2012 and by 100 annually every year thereafter.. Given the provinces dire labour shortages and the impending retirement of the Baby Boom generation, this is the minimum needed to sustain the province's economic growth.
Saskatchewan has a labour shortage of roughly 10,000 workers in virtually every industry. The shortage will present a challenge to expanding industries, particularly in the resource sector. As Boomers retire, shortages will worsen. Increased fertility rates could mitigate shortages in the long term, but even a significant increase would be too little too late.
The challenge of funding social services with an ageing population will be immense, particularly when it comes to healthcare. Roughly 50% of lifetime healthcare costs come after the age of 65. Unless we can balance out retirees with new workers, young people in Saskatchewan will face staggering tax increases in the next few decades to compensate for retirees. Immigration is the only possible short-term solution.
To achieve the target of 10,000 immigrants, the province should expand its target under the Immigrant Nominee Program from 4,000 to 6,000. The program is specifically targeted at immigrants who already have job offers in the province, as well as a few other key groups such as entrepreneurs and farmers. It has been successful at attracting immigrants to urban and rural areas in Saskatchewan. There are costs associated with the program, some of which are covered by fees to nominees in various categories. The province should work to ensure that nominees are paying the full cost of the program, whether it be through fees or taxes.
While 10,000 immigrants sounds like a shock to the system, it would be a modest increase. The province could absorb far higher levels of immigration, should it see fit. A failure to accept at least 10,000 immigrants annually would undermine the provinces prosperity.

Wickets Tumble On Dramatic Day In Delhi
West Indies 304 (Chanderpaul 118) & 21-2 v
India 209 (Sehwag 55, Dravid 54)
First Test, Delhi, day two
17 wickets fell on day two of the opening Test between India and the West Indies in Delhi which closed with the West Indies 116 runs ahead.
They bowled well to secure a 95-run lead on first innings despite half-centuries from Virender Sehwag and Rahul Dravid but then lost the wickets of their openers as they looked to set India a fourth-innings target.
Shivnarine Chanderpaul could add only seven runs before he was out for 118 and with the pitch aiding turn, India then opened with Ravi Ashwin and Pragyan Ojha and both men grabbed a wicket apiece as India closed strongly.
Chanderpaul fell when he was trapped in front by Ishant Sharma - the only wicket taken by an Indian pace bowler before Ojha and Ashwin ran through the lower order.
Ojha returned figures of six for 72 - his maiden five-wicket haul - while Ashwin took three for 81 as Carlton Baugh (27), Darren Sammy (5), Ravi Rampaul (12) and Fidel Edwards (10) were unable to offer much resistance.
India then made an excellent start in reply with openers Gautam Gambhir (41) and Sehwag (55 in 46 balls) putting on 89 for the first wicket before Gambhir was run out by Sammy.
Sehwag fell soon after when he was stumped by Baugh off Devendra Bishoo and Sachin Tendulkar's latest quest for the so-far elusive 100th international century failed when he was trapped in front by Edwards for seven.
India were struggling at 120 for four when VVS Laxman was caught by Baugh as Bishoo grabbed another breakthrough for one but Yuvraj Singh, who made 23, joined forces with Dravid, whose 54 came from 111 balls, to steady the ship, albeit only temporarily.
Yuvraj was caught by Edwards off Sammy, who then removed both Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Ashwin without scoring on his way to figures of three for 35.
Marlon Samuels then had Ishant Sharma caught by Baugh for 17 and Dravid was the last man to fall when he was caught by Sammy off Rampaul, leaving Ojha unbeaten on three.
India then opted to hand the new ball to Ojha and Ashwin and were quickly rewarded when Kieran Powell was caught by Gambhir off Ashwin.
And the West Indies were 17 for two when Kraigg Brathwaite, who faced 41 balls for just two runs, was trapped in front by Ashwin.
Kirk Edwards was unbeaten on 15 with namesake Fidel at the other end having not yet scored a run.

As a Project Manager for an Owner, is it our role to play nice in the sandbox or be the playground bully? Being an effective Project Manager for an Owner means different things to different people. A project will typically be completed according the schedule and budget established between the General Contractor and the Owner unless changes to the scope are agreed to by all parties. But sometimes the leftover taste in the mouth about how successful the project went, can be directly attributed to the personality of the Project Manager.
Many times the Project Manager can adopt the "playground bully" role, and are known to take sides with the Owner over the rest of the project team. Whether the issues that arise are schedule, cost, construction issue, or completion date related, everyone tends to leave the project feeling as though the project was a struggle to some extent. This playground bully attitude can create defensiveness in the project team and ultimately tends to create an "us vs. them" project atmosphere – where no one really wins – especially the Project.
On the other hand, some Project Managers take on the "playing nice in the sandbox" attitude. This doesn't just mean letting the Owner or the General Contractor have their way, because this alone can lead to a dysfunctional project team dynamic. An exceptionally professional Project Manager has the ability to openly (and calmly) discuss all project issues as thoroughly as possible, with the entire team, while simultaneously gathering information to provide to all parties in order to help reach a resolution. This resolution may not be agreeable to all parties all the time, some may favor the Owner and some may favor the Construction team, but the resolution is one both sides have the opportunity to evaluate thoroughly from each other's perspective.
Project goals and ground rules need to be established early! An experienced Project Manager knows it is not only how project issues are addressed but also how the "playground rules" were established early on so everyone knows the critical, non-negotiable ins and outs of the project (budgets, schedules, project requirements, etc.). These must be communicated to ALL parties (Owner, Architect/Design Team, Construction Team, consultants, etc). Like any project, a good foundation is key to a solid building. Another critical piece of information to create before the project is underway is a responsibility matrix outlining who is responsible for each detailed aspect of the project in order to make it successful. Everyone then knows their responsibility to the team.
The Project Manager is responsible for enforcing these agreed upon rules, roles and responsibilities. The critical part of this process is how this is accomplished. The Project Manager must always conduct themselves with integrity and without prejudice, never making assumptions (good or bad). It's about having the poise and the moral courage to "do what is right" – for either side. If it's right, then neither side can argue.
Taking your kids to the park was always more enjoyable when they played nicely in the sandbox. Completing a project, large or small, is never a "walk in the park" but it can be an enjoyable experience if managed with the proper attitude from day one.

A common saying of Jesus Christ that inerrantists use to support inerrancy is found within Matthew 5:17-18. According to this text Christ says the following:
"Do not imagine that I have come to do away with the law or the prophets. I have come not to do away with them, but to fulfil them. I meant it when I say that, until heaven and earth disappear, not one letter, not even one stroke of a letter, will disappear from the law, until everything is accomplished."
Three things might be said in response to the inerrantist's use of this text. On a first note, the reasoning behind the inerrantist's use of it is circular. In other words, the only reason they are able to claim that these verses represent "Jesus's teaching" on scripture's inerrancy is because they already presuppose that the Gospel of Matthew is giving an inerrant record of Jesus' words. In other words, inerrancy is supported by the assumption of inerrancy.
But there is good reason to doubt that Jesus actually said these words found in this verse of Matthew. It seems that what Jesus says here regarding the law is done to support Matthew's own theological agenda. What agenda? By the time Matthew's gospel was written there had already been mass conversions of gentiles to early Christian-Judaism. The policy of Paul and others was that the laws of Moses did not apply to the gentiles, a policy that was highly controversial to 1st century Christians. Many Jewish Christians dissented from Paul's position, arguing that the law of Moses was still applicable, and Matthew's gospel seems to take that position in opposition to Paul and other gentile churches.
Jesus also says that "until heaven and earth disappear, not one letter, not even a stroke of a letter, will disappear from the law."
The phrase "until heaven and earth disappear," is a Hebrew idiom that means "until forever." In other words, in Matthew, Jesus says that the laws of Moses will never become irrelevant, and there will never be a time when it should not be obeyed. On the other hand, Luke's author quotes this same saying of Jesus with a subtle yet significant variation in wording: "But it is easier for heaven and earth to disappear than for a single stroke of a letter in the law to be cut out" (Luke 16:17).
Note, however, that in Luke, this saying is preceded by a rather different claim: "Until John came, the law and the prophet were in effect; since that time, the good news of the kingdom of God is proclaimed, and everyone is rushing madly to get into it" (16:16).
In Luke's gospel, the same saying of Jesus is given the opposite meaning to that of Matthew. In Luke, although it is difficult for the law to pass away, it has. It was only valid until the ministry of John the Baptist after which it was set aside in order to allow the gentiles to come into the kingdom. This also happens to be Luke's theological agenda, being a gentile himself. Thus, the Gospel of Luke takes Paul's side in the controversy, and the Gospel of Matthew takes the side of the Jewish Christians who are highly polemicized in Paul's letters as "Judaizers." Both Luke and Matthew use the same saying of Jesus to articulate polar opposite positions.
Furthermore, even if this saying is original to Jesus, and conceding that by it he meant that the law and the prophets were inerrant (and claim he does not make), Jesus still makes no statement about the other writings, namely the books of the Hebrew scripture that fall outside of the categories of the Law and the Prophets.

Great Barrington Rudolf Steiner School (GBRSS) classrooms extend out into gardens, fields and woods. School buildings are uniquely sited on the verge of a hay field on the Lower School side of the 32-acre campus, and adjacent to a farm on the Early Childhood side, bounded by the Green River.
GBRSS is an "all-weather school." Most classrooms have an "out" door to the outdoors, and the children in Early Childhood through the grades run outside several times a day in all Berkshire weathers. In the Lower School, grades children are fortunate to have two recesses a day plus weekly games classes in the "big backyard;" preschool and kindergarten children explore woodland paths and Tree Island every day. Spring and summer's wide meadows become broad fields for cross-country skiing on snowy days, and elementary and middle school students go to nearby Lake Mansfield to ice skate for recess when it is very cold.
The Green River provides opportunity for fun and learning, from science experiments to botany explorations, and our biodynamic gardening program, centered around learning and pollinator gardens as well as a three-season greenhouse, is woven throughout the curriculum, from pre-K right through the grades.
Middle schoolers regularly see wild turkeys gleaning the cornfield near the woods, completely unconcerned by the soccer game going on in the foreground!

Food & Drink
Perfect last-minute gifts should include Kentucky Proud products
There's a reason they're called last-minute Christmas gifts. You've put it off and now you're scurrying to find something special for a neighbor or co-worker and you're stressed.
We've got you covered. Simply choose a food item that's made in Kentucky and you're done. You can be satisfied that it's a gift your recipient likely won't return, and buying local helps our communities.
There are lots of places to buy locally produced Kentucky Proud items, such as gift shops and supermarkets. Two places that make it a one-stop shopping trip are Good Foods Market & Café, 455 Southland Drive, (Goodfoods.coop) and Liquor Barn stores (Liquorbarn.com). These places carry an extensive line of local food products.
"Kentucky producers are our neighbors, our customers, and our friends. They are cheese- makers, grape-growers, winemakers, brewers, distillers, and Kentuckians. We like all those things," said Roger Leasor, director of community affairs at the Liquor Barn
To begin your search for locally produced food gifts, go to Kentuckyproud.com, the Kentucky Department of Agriculture's listing of farmers and producers and the items they sell. Under "categories," go to general grocery, for a listing of items by product. Once you find an item you like, you can go directly to the producer's website and there you can find retail locations.
There are hundreds of locally made items that will please everyone on your gift list, here are just a few to tempt you.
■ A new item you might want to buy for yourself and a friend, is Olivia's Beer Cheese. It's made in Lexington by Olivia Swan and her family. Swan grew up eating beer cheese. "Thanks to my dad, I was eating it by age 3. Growing up, my brother and I were beer cheese fanatics. Like most everyone else in Lexington, we grew up on Hall's beer cheese — it was our snack of choice.
"When my brother (Michael Hurter) and I moved away for college ... we both ran into the same problem — no beer cheese. On our trips back to Lexington, we often packed a cooler of beer cheese to take back to college.
"I moved to Chicago in 2004 ... again, same problem — no beer cheese. And the same solution — pack a cooler, drive it back to Chicago," Swan said.
In 2006, Olivia Swan and her dad started to experiment with making beer cheese. Over the next few years, they began giving it out as Christmas gifts to family and friends, she said.
In 2010, Swan and her father Mike Hurter, entered the beer cheese contest in Winchester's Beer Cheese Festival amateur competition, and won. They decided to turn it into a marketable product, and the line now includes flavors with equine-inspired names. The bourbon and beer cheese is called "I'll Have Another," after a Kentucky Derby winner, and the beer and whiskey flavored spread is named "Unbrydled," There's a special edition, "Wines on Vine Blend."
■ Specialty sauces make nice gifts for both cooks and non-cooks. Nancy Ward, owner of Ward's Kentucky Specialties, recently relaunched her brand with new packaging. She keeps adding to her line of small-batch sauces that began with Original Bluegrass Steak and Everything sauce. Her newest is Wallace Station bourbon mustard, which she co-brands with local chef Ouita Michel. Go to Wardskentuckyspecialties.com.
■ Douglas Johannes of Mt. Sterling is a personal chef, owns a mobile food truck The Snack Shack, and has a line of Caribbean gourmet food products called Chef Doug's Gourmet Foods. He's a native of the U.S. Virgin Islands and is a graduate of Johnson and Wales University in Charleston, S.C. His food line includes Caribbean hot sauce, mustard honey and sweet & spicy BBQ sauces, and gourmet fish fry mix. Go to Chefdougsgourmetfoods.com.
■ Fresh goat cheese from a Kentucky producer will please the gourmet chef on your list. Susan Miller, owner of Bleugrass Chevre Farmstead Goat Cheese in Fayette County, has a new item. "Since it's the end of lactation and the milk structure always changes, our feta has magically turned into 'mozza-retta.' It's delicious, but has the flavor of feta with the texture of mozzarella, so we have basically created a new cheese." It's available at Good Foods Market, Graze Market and Cafe, 150 on Combs Ferry Road, and Miller will be at the Lexington Farmers Market at Cheapside Park Saturday.
The farmers market, open from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturdays during winter, is where you'll also find items from Elmwood Stock Farm in Scott County such as heirloom organic cornmeal, dried beans (ying-yang, black turtle, peregion, and red kidney), popcorn, dried tomatoes, dried chile peppers, salsa, ketchup, and marinara. Go to Lexingtonfarmersmarket.com.
■ Bourbon candy is as much a part of the Kentucky tradition as the bourbon itself. Candy makers such as Ruth Hunt(Ruthhuntcandy.com) and Rebecca Ruth (Rebeccaruth.com) have been in business since the early 1900s.
New on the scene is DB Bourbon Candy.Robyn Stuart of Frankfort started her business in 2002, shortly after her mother, Johnnye Cunningham, died.
"She did bourbon balls at Christmas to give away to everybody. After she passed, everybody said, 'I'm going to miss your mom's candy,'" Stuart said. She decided to continue her mother's tradition "as a way to remember her." Go to Dbbourboncandy.com.
■ If you would like to have someone else to put it all together for you, gift baskets are available at Windy Corner Market, 4595 Bryan Station Road, Lexington (Windycornermarket.com).
All gift baskets are made with Kentucky Proud products. Included are a fiesta basket that has Screamin' Mimi'sSweet Hot and Sweet Hotter Salsawith blue and red corn chips; breakfast baskets with Country Rock maple syrup and Weisenberger Mill pancake mix; Crigger Farm honey, Elmwood Inn Tea and Weisenberger's biscuit mix; and Reed Valley Orchard strawberry or blueberry jam with Weisensberger's biscuit or scone mix.
■ Don't fret if there's someone on your list with food allergies. Midway School Bakery, 510 Versailles Road in Midway, offers gluten-free goodies, including gingerbread, in gift boxes. Go to Midwayschoolbakery.com.
■ If you like tradition, Martine's Pastries, 1039 Industry Road, Lexington, makes buche de noel (Yule Log cake) and decorated gingerbread cookies. Go to Martinespastries.com.

2 Months to Ironman Canada
The past month of training has given me more confidence in completing Ironman. Although my haven't attempted any long runs yet, it feels good to hit the 5 mile mark again without any issue. It has been a great month for riding, everything from the beauty of Lake Tahoe to the torture of Lake Berryessa :-) Still 2 months seems a little soon, any possibility of pushing out this schedule, just a little?

Mizzou takes game one
No one covers Tiger athletics like PowerMizzou.com. This year, we've added baseball coverage to our top-notch football and basketball beats. To follow the Tigers year-round, sign up today to start your Free Seven-Day Trial.
Just call him Superman. With two outs in the bottom of the sixth and runners on second and third, a crowd of 1,774 at Taylor Stadium watched a ball smash off the centerfield wall. As the runner neared third, he received the signal to try and complete the inside-the-park home run. With just a few steps to go before reaching home, the exhausted runner sailed through the air with arms spread like Superman. Only this Superman wasn't wearing Jayhawk red and blue. No, this Superman was wearing black and gold and goes by the name of Greg Folgia.
"I actually was just hoping it would get over the center-fielder's head, and once it did I saw him on the ground, and I just started running a little faster," Folgia said.
And what about that slide?
"It was awesome," he continued. "That was the only energy I had left, and I just wanted to jump into a pool."
"He is the worst all time," coach Tim Jamieson said while laughing. "You watch him go back to first base on a pick-off attempt. He goes up before he goes out. He is the worst. The absolute worst, in particular when he goes head first."
The fans in attendance were all a witness to the first official inside-the-park home run at Taylor Stadium. The three-run homer put Missouri (29-22, 15-10) up by four, and they would go on to beat No. 23 Kansas (34-17, 12-10) by a score of 8-5.
Folgia has been Missouri's Superman in so many ways this season. He leads the team in homers, runs scored, R.B.I. and average. On Friday, he added two more home runs to his total. After Tiger starter Kyle Gibson struggled through the first inning where he was helped by excellent defense plays from Ryan Lollis and Kyle Mach, Folgia sent a line drive over the center-field wall in the bottom of the first to put the Tigers up 1-0.
After Mach extended his hitting streak to ten games, Missouri would add another run in the second when Ryan Ampleman singled to left field. Gibson would continue to struggle on the mound, however, and surrendered a three-run homer to center at the hands of Buck Afenir in the third.
Missouri continued to fight at the plate against Kansas starter Shaeffer Hall and broke through again in the fourth. After base hits by Steve Gray and new lineup addition Garrison McLagan, Michael Liberto delivered an opposite field single to tie the game. Liberto would finish the day with three hits and utilized all parts of the field.
For McLagan, it was his first game as a Tiger. The freshman from Christian Fellowship School in Columbia, Mo., was told before the game that if he was ready he could play in the game. McLagan showed poise at the plate and had his first college single against the rival Jayhawks in arguably the biggest game of the year thus far.
"It felt really good to me," McLagan said. "It made me feel like they really knew I was ready to do it because it's huge game for us this weekend."
Aaron Senne hit a moon-shot that barely cleared the wall in right in the fifth, and then Folgia would add his second home run of the game in the sixth. Folgia's homer turned the momentum in the game and could possibly be the play of the year according to Jamieson.
"He had a great at-bat with two strikes and two guys on in a point in the game where it might have been the biggest at-bat of the game," Jamieson said. "It might have been the biggest at-bat of the season depending on what happens in the next couple of days."
While the Tigers were putting up runs, Gibson calmed down and regained his normal form. After giving up a double in the third, Missouri's ace would retire 14 Jayhawks in a row before giving up a solo home run to Robby Price in the eighth. Brad Buehler would close out the game after giving up a lead off homer to Tony Thompson.
"It feels great," Gibson said. "My freshman year they kind of had my number and then last year I threw pretty well against them, and then this year I was able to come out and battle and get the breaks I needed to. But it always feels great coming out and throwing good against Kansas and beating them."
The Tigers will send Johnny Wholestaff to the mound tomorrow to take on Kansas pitcher T.J. Walz. If Missouri wins tomorrow, they will clinch the Border Showdown.
