Yes, Hank Jr., I am really ready for some football! But unlike all those gridiron guzzlers out there, I'm not ready for all of it.
What's that? Sure, I'll explain. I don't live and die with pro football, but I enjoy watching NFL teams play, even though the game is way too brutal. I'm fired up about what I'm hoping will be a significantly improved Buffalo Bills team. I'm squeezing for the Saints to bring another Super Bowl victory celebration to Bourbon Street down in New Orleans. I want to see QBs Ryan Fitzpatrick and Drew Brees light it up.
I'm anxious to see how well Michael Vick plays for the Philadelphia Eagles. I'm curious to see if Reggie Bush performs better for the Miami Dolphins than he did for the Saints—and since he's now in the AFC East, I hope he doesn't, at least not against the Bills. I wonder when (if?) Peyton Manning will be back under center for the Indianapolis Colts.
In other words, questions abound, and only time will provide the answers. This should be—and let's hope I'm right—an interesting season.
I'm sorry, Hank, but that's where my interest in football ends. No, college football, especially Division I college football, does not turn me on. In fact, it's 180 degrees from there: It not only turns me off but almost makes me toss my cookies.
See, Hank, in case you haven't noticed, there is nothing phony about the NFL. It's all about winning, and the owners, general managers and coaches don't pretend anything else means anything. As Oakland Raiders owner Al Davis said decades ago: Just win, baby.
In the NFL, there are no so-called "student athletes." They're all there for fame and fortune and make no bones about it. It's the same for thousands of college players, but they just won't admit it.
There are some exceptionally studious athletes, of course. My favorite is former Minnesota Vikings defensive tackle Alan Page, a Pro Football Hall of Fame player who is now a Minnesota Supreme Court justice. I remember him once describing how surprised he had been at training camp that so many of the defensive linemen couldn't even read the Vikings playbook.
Why? Well, in case you haven't noticed lately, several big-time football programs have broken the rules to keep players academically eligible so the head coach can win enough games to keep his job. Or the schools have seen to it that some superstar gets enough of whatever under the table so he won't leave.
Thanks to the National Collegiate Asinine Association, coaches, cousins, wealthy alumni—in fact, everyone except Mom and Dad—cannot provide anything to a college player that can be counted or has a price tag on it. It's a problem that needs to be solved. A friend of mine suggested the other day that it would be better if big-time college football players didn't have to enroll at school, just get a year of free education for every year they played for the team.
There has never been any doubt in my mind that there are many more D-I programs that haven't been caught cheating yet. Maybe even many more than many. And I was right. The NCAA reported this summer that 103 of the 120 colleges in the Bowl Championship Series have committed a major violation in one of their sports programs. And only four of the clean 17—Boston College, Northwestern, Penn State and Stanford—are in one of the six BCS conferences.
The problem is, of course, that there is so much pressure on D-I head coaches to win enough games to get invited to a bowl game that brings money to the school. Still, if you tied the college president and the athletic director in a chair and whipped them with a rubber hose, they'd never admit that. Hey, sometimes the truth hurts worse than a rubber hose.
Having said all this, I will still cheer for the Demons of my alma mater, Northwestern State University. And if they lose to the LSU Tigers on Saturday night, which is highly likely, I won't mind if LSU has a great season, even wins the national championship (and doesn't get caught).
Otherwise, it would tickle me pink if Auburn, Miami, Southern Cal, Ohio State and those other you-know-who cheaters all went 0-11. Sometime, somewhere and somehow, the NCAA should clean up all the garbage piled up in D-I athletics.
Will it happen? No way, as long as it remains the PFO—the Phony Football Organization.

Question: "Can you give me a basic timeline of the Bible?"
Answer: In the most basic sense, the Bible timeline is endless and eternal, as it chronicles creation (date unknown; Genesis 1:1-31) and the end of ages (Matthew 28:20). From a more practical viewpoint, the Bible timeline on which most scholars agree begins with Abram's birth, renamed Abraham by God (Genesis 17:4-6) in the year 2166 BC and ends with the writing of the book of Revelation in approximately AD 95. Prior to Abraham's birth, the Bible timeline beginning in Genesis contains a rich history of creation, Adam and Eve, the Fall of Man, extensive genealogies, stories of human travails leading up to Noah and the Great Flood (date also unknown), and much more.
Of course, this raises the question of how literally to interpret dates and other statements in the Bible. Genesis says that God created the world and everything in it in six days (Genesis 1:31). Yet the Bible also says that with God a day is like a thousand years and a thousand years is like a day (2 Peter 3:8). And as Jesus told His disciples to forgive people not only seven times but seventy times seven times (490), the context seems clear that Jesus exhorts us to offer limitless forgiveness to those who trespass against us (Matthew 6:9-13). So, the most accurate and practical way to regard biblical time is that only God knows the true beginning and end of His universe (Mark 13:32).
Yet, within the period between Abraham's birth and the apostle John's writing of the book of Revelation, history clearly documents and verifies many of the events and people addressed in the Old and New Testaments. For example, Moses was estimated to be born in 1526 BC, Joshua entered the Promised Land approximately 1400 BC, and the period of Israel's ten judges lasted until 1050 B.C, or until the onset of King Saul's reign, when most scholars agree that concrete, historically verifiable dating is possible.
From there, Israel's first king, Saul, the famous King David—from whose family Jesus Christ would be born—and David's son, the wise King Solomon, presided over a united kingdom until 930 BC. After King Solomon's reign, Israel experienced a divided kingdom. Kings ruled the north (kings of Israel) and the south (kings of Judah) until the fall of the northern kingdom in 722 BC and the fall of Jerusalem (in the southern kingdom), which resulted in the Jews being exiled to Babylonia in 586 BC.
This exile lasted until 538 BC when Persian King Cyrus directed Ezra to return to Israel and build a temple for God at Jerusalem in Judah (Ezra 1). The Jews restored Israel between this time and approximately 432 BC, when the last book of the Old Testament (Malachi) was written. What followed was a period of approximately 430 years, often referred to as "the time between the testaments."
In approximately 6 BC, Jesus Christ, the Messiah of Israel, was born in Bethlehem and left soon thereafter for Egypt. After the death of Herod the Great in 4 BC, Jesus and His parents left Egypt and returned to Nazareth (Matthew 2:19-23). Nothing is recorded for the next ten years, until we see Jesus astounding the teachers in the temple at age twelve (Luke 2:40-52). This was followed by approximately nineteen years of silence until Jesus began His public ministry in circa AD 27, which included His baptism (Matthew 3:13-17), temptation in the wilderness (Luke 4:1-13), first miracle in Cana (John 2:1-12), the first cleansing of the Temple (John 2:13-25) and early Judean ministry (John 3:1–4:43). The following year in Galilee, He called His disciples (Luke 6:13-16), preached the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5:1–8:1), spoke in parables, did many miracles, including healings (Matthew 8:23–9:34), and sent forth the twelve (Matthew 9:35–11:1).
In the period AD 29-30, Jesus spent most of His time in Judea, preaching, teaching, performing miracles—including the raising of Lazarus from the dead—and further equipping the disciples to continue on after His death. Early in the year 30, He set His face toward Jerusalem. During the last week of His life, Jesus celebrated the Passover with His friends, where He instituted the Lord's Supper (Luke 22:14-20) and gave His farewell discourse, including His High Priestly prayer (John 17:1-26). Finally, He was betrayed, arrested, tried, crucified and resurrected (Matthew 26:36–28:8). After that, the risen Christ began a 40-day ministry, was seen by many, and finally ascended to heaven (Acts 1:3-11; 1 Corinthians 15:6-7).
Shortly after Jesus was crucified and resurrected, His apostles and followers wrote what we now call the New Testament, a collection of books composed comparatively soon after His earthly ministry. Many scholars proficient in studying ancient texts believe that the concurrency of accounts plus the enormous number of copies produced and replicated over subsequent years makes the New Testament the most historically reliable document of all ancient texts. The first book of the New Testament to be written (either Galatians or James) could have been written as early as AD 49, or within two decades of Jesus' death and resurrection. This meant that the original texts were written by eyewitnesses providing firsthand accounts of what took place. The final book of the New Testament, Revelation, was written in approximately AD 95.

For runners needing a little more shoe than the Rogue Racer, the Bajada feels responsive and gives added confidence on technical trails.
A shoe built for the trail but capable on the road as well, the Bajada brings a nice mix of cushion and traction to the trail category. The midsole and outsole are flexible but still provide the protection that a trail runner needs to feel confident on a range of terrain.
In terms of fit, look for a very locked-in heel and snug midfoot, opening up to a roomy toebox. You have more material wrapping around your foot than you would in the Rogue Fly or Rogue Racer, but the Bajada is still a far cry from the chunky overlays of trail shoes from the past. A few testers noted that the additional structure of the upper gave them added confidence in lateral movements on the trail.
Overall, the Bajada is a versatile shoe. If you're looking for a true performer on the trail that won't beat you up on the road (and actually will keep you feeling pretty darn good), put the Bajada on your list.
I could see this shoe working for a mile or two on the road on your way to your favorite trail.
Montrail made a lot of good choices for this shoe. Cushioned but flexible, structured overlays but comfortable fit. I could easily rack up the miles in the Bajada.
The transition on this shoe would be pretty amazing for a road model, but as a trail-oriented model it is that much more impressive.

Gotta have a pair of these
"I was hesitant to buy these boots because I felt they were a bit pricey for booties. Luckily I was able to use a few coupons and I manged to buy them. This was a great investment and now I understand why they are so expensive. They are extremely comfortable and another nice surprise that I was not expecting is that they keep your feet very warm. I am tempted to buy another pair for next fall/winter."

Nice Boots
"These boots are comfortable. I walk several blocks in NYC everyday and I had no problems walking around in these boots straight out the box. I have Kelly & Katie riding boots as well and I figured since these were the same brand, the size would be the same. I had to go half a size up though because they were a little tight around the heel."

Cute shoe
"This is a cute little ballet flat. I bought it in black with the black patent toe. The elastic cross straps make it unique, reminiscent of a real ballet shoe, and they also seem to help with stability. It fits fine, maybe a teeny bit on the narrow side. I haven't worn it outside yet, so I don't yet know how it is to walk long distances in it; but I think it will be fine for evenings out."

En español | Now is the time when many summer seekers make arrangements for that long-awaited week at the beach or in the mountains.
That means it's time to guard against vacation rental rip-offs.
The fraudsters' basic technique is to place phony advertisements for vacation rentals at great prices. Most commonly they steal property descriptions and photos listed on legitimate real estate websites. Or they may post addresses of homes that aren't for rent or simply invent a rental by posting a made-up description and nonexistent address.
The ads often show up on Craigslist, but can also be found in newspapers, online chat boards or phony real estate websites that the crooks themselves create.
The goal is to get an up-front payment from you or trick you into completing an application form that requires personal information the thieves can then use to steal your identity. You may even receive keys, a rental agreement or other indicators of a legitimate transaction, but when you arrive at your paid-for getaway, you learn it was all a ruse.
Recently, we've seen variations that go beyond summertime swindles.
- The same approach is increasingly used for longer-term rentals, especially in college towns or areas popular for retirement. Such scams especially target people looking to downsize and boomer parents of college-bound students.
- Owners of properties that are in the latter stages of the foreclosure process sometimes offer their vacated homes to unsuspecting renters. When the property is seized, the tenants are evicted if they can't produce a lease that the lender will honor.
- Homes that lie empty for months — think houses of snowbirds who head south for the winter — have been broken into by con men who then "rent" them to unsuspecting folk. The real owners return to find unknown and unwanted people living in their homes.
Join the Discussion: Where would you most like to travel?
You can avoid these ruses. Common sense is great protection. Trust your instinct: if you're offered rent at an impossibly low cost, it probably is impossible. But doing some homework can help, too.
9 Ways to Protect Yourself From Vacation Rental Scams
1. Before paying anything, first check out the property yourself, or ask a local to do it on your behalf. If you can't take those steps, run an online search of its address, as well as of all names, emails and phone numbers of the supposed landlord or agent. Red flags include search results that indicate the property is for sale (and not for rent), a nonexistent address, an address listed for a business or other nonresidential property, and postings by people who fell victim to this particular scammer.
2. Copy and paste into a search engine whole chunks of the ads descriptive text to see whether it's been copied from elsewhere online. If that search reveals a bona fide listing of a for-sale home, assume that the rental offer is the work of a scammer.
3. Use an online search engine's map function to get an aerial view of the property. There may also be a street-level photo.

Athlete of the Month - Sarah Pavan
Month of May
Date of birth: August 16, 1986
Height: 195 cm
Hometown: Kitchener, Ont.
Years on national team: 5
Sarah Pavan says she is living her dream as a professional volleyball player.
This past season, the Kitchener, Ont., native enjoyed an extraordinary season with Villa Cortese in the Italian Pro League, considered one of the strongest in the world. She was the league's top scorer leading her squad to the final. She won the Best Spiker Award in the women's Champions League as Villa Cortese advanced to the Final Four tournament.
Those performances won't surprise anyone who has followed Pavan's career since she first donned a Team Canada uniform at age 16.
Raised by sports minded parents – her mother was on the 1980 Olympic volleyball team that didn't go to Moscow- Pavan joined her first volleyball team at age 10. She won three provincial championships with her high school – Forest Heights Collegiate which was coached by her father – and by 14 she was on the national youth team. In addition she won five provincial club titles with the Waterloo Tigers.
Pavan was recruited by the University of Nebraska where she led the school to an NCAA title was named an All American four times. She was the NCCA female athlete of the year in 2006.
There are probably too many highlights with the national team. In 2002, at age 16, she was named the NORCECA Championships MVP, she led Canada to the semis at the 2003 Olympic qualifier, was the top scorer at the 2004 NORCECA champs, and more recently was the top scorer at the 2011 Pan Am Championships.
Since graduating from Nebraska in 2008, she has been one of the most sought after professional players playing mostly in Italy.
Next on Pavan's list is to help Canada earn an Olympic berth for the 2012 Olympic Games.

USDA Funding Provides a Broadband Lift to Part of Rural Oklahoma
Reinforcing USDA's commitment to connecting rural America to the global economy, Oklahoma USDA Rural Development State Director Ryan McMullen, cut the ribbon on a new high-speed internet network, projected to serve more than 4,000 rural Oklahoma residents, many of them Native American, and 1,400 businesses.
The Oklahoma-owned company, @Atlink, that secured the funding for the project, hosted the event at the site of the completion of their first of thirty towers. The new, vast network will span from I-35 near Ardmore, to the northeast to Sapulpa, while covering sprawling areas between Pauls Valley and Muskogee. @Atlink secured $8 million for this project through the USDA Broadband Initiatives Program. The funding for their loan/grant combination was provided through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Read more »

"Content is king" is the old Link Building mantra which is trotted out time and time again in almost every article you will read on the subject (except this one, apart from that once…)
All too often though people see the word "content" and instantly think articles, lists, how too's or some other kind of text-based content. In truth these are all solid tactics (if implemented well) but for many business owners, and at times myself, sitting down in front of a screen and bashing out 1000 words for that "Killer content" just isn't an option week in week out. Unfortunately we're not all gifted writers.
Image: akeeris / FreeDigitalPhotos.net
However, don't think that if you're not the greatest writer in the world then a content based link building strategy can't work for you because it can, you've just got to think outside the box a little. I've listed below a few good examples of how you can get link worthy content up onto your site without spending hours trying to craft the next literary masterpiece.
(Yes, I see the irony in writing an article when the topic is link building without writing great content but let's just pretend we both missed that, deal?)
Tactic #1 – Video
Creating short informative or entertaining videos are a fantastic alternative to writing articles in order to attract links to your blog. If you are short on time then you can make a video equivalent to 1000 – 2000 word written article in about half an hour. Once the video is complete you could obviously then get it transcribed giving you the "Killer content" without the pain of typing it all out but even transcribed videos attract links.
Some ideas of different types of videos you could produce:
- Informational
- Product demo/review
- Humourous
- Location based
Dan Shure recently did a guest post on the IPullRank blog which illustrates this idea of using an informational video rather than written content, go check it out.
Tactic #2 – Leverage your network
It really surprises me how many people seem to completely miss this opportunity to build links even though it has one of the highest success rate of any tactic around. Just ask your friends, family, colleagues for a link, they'll hardly ever say no!
Most people today have some sort of online presence, even if it's just a simple Facebook page updated once a month so asking your nearest and dearest can get you those all important first links if you're just starting out. If you have colleagues or business associates in the same industry who are willing to give you a link then all the better.
Tactic #3 – Run competitions
I wrote a blog post last month about how you can get a ton of traffic to your site by running or offering up prizes for competitions but this same idea can easily be used in order to build links. If you are hosting the competition via 3rd party blog then you will almost certainly get a link from them as part of their write up. To ensure that you make a link to your site even more critical however you can use a question as part of the entry criteria, the answer to which can be only found by visiting your site. (via the link provided)
Another really great tip for using this idea to build links even if you are hosting the competition on your own site is to allow additional entries via social media and getting people mention your brand. Having people tweet "I want to win XYZ from www.XYZ.com" for example can easily net you hundreds of social links when running a popular competition.
Tactic #4 – Share your presentations
If like me you are required to do lots of presentations in you day-to-day work then you no doubt have access to another source of non-written content, your slides! You can upload these to Slideshare (or similar) and use them embed them into your next blog post along with just a few sort paragraphs to explain what they're about. Easy, linkable content!
Tactic #5 – Publish guest posts
I was in two minds whether or not to include this on the list because it does essentially rely on producing the traditional "great content". The overriding factor which got it on the list however that you don't have to write it! Inviting well know people in your industry to guest post on your blog is a solid tactic which benefits both the blog hosting the post and the 3rd part supplying the content.
(if anybody would like to guest post on this blog by the way just let me know via twitter)
Tactic #6 – Publish your pictures
Images can be an extremely useful substitute for written content when attempting to build links and you don't have to be a pro with an expensive camera to do it. If you are attending an industry event or somewhere which would be of interest to your readers always make sure you take a camera and snap away, publishing the best photographs to your blog on your return.
I think the photos from The Atlantic's InFocus are a great example of content marketing: bit.ly/AaVsEc
— John Doherty (@dohertyjf) February 18, 2012
John Doherty tweeted this link to the "In Focus" section of The Atlantic website over the weekend which, as he says is a great example of content marketing (and as promised I did use it in my blog :-). According to Open Site Explorer the In Focus section has 344 linking root domains
Tactic #7 – Create a custom map
This is a tactic which I have employed for many local businesses, Google maps gives you the ability to create custom maps which can be embedded into your website to great effect. Check out this example of a custom map being used to show dog walks along the M1 motorway in the UK, really useful information for their target market of dog owners which will no doubt attract links.
So there we have it, 7 solid tactics for attracting links to your site which don't involve you "witting great content". I'm sure there are many more and I'm looking forward to hearing your ideas in the comments below.

The single most important factor in the success of your cosmetic surgery is the plastic surgeon you select. Dr. Morello sets himself apart from and above the rest by offering individualized care, personalization, and attention to the fine details of aesthetic plastic surgery that are so often lost in the hustle and bustle of "assembly line" practices. These differences are of the utmost importance.... like the difference between an off-the-rack garment and one that is finely hand-tailored.
Patients come to our practice because they have heard of this attention to detail and meticulous surgical technique, and because they desire the resulting natural look that Dr. Morello produces.
Dr. Morello brings an artists eye and talents to his cosmetic surgery, having been trained in sculpture, drawing, painting, and photography. He has maintained an interest in constructing whimsical and imaginative sand sculptures and castles.
"I believe that balance and harmony are important in cosmetic surgery, as in life. I strive to produce harmony between the way my patients feel and the way they look. This practice is known for the excellence of its surgical results, the individualized attention, and the compassionate and caring staff."

Your Consultation
Consultations in our office are different in that you spend approximately 30 minutes one-on-one with Dr. Morello, who personally explains the procedures and does computer imaging. Our patients find this preferable to having office personnel or a nurse explain the surgery (as is done in many offices).
Staff & Facilities
Surgical Facility
Our private Ambulatory Plastic Surgery Facility (APSF) is one of only 500 in the world certified at the highest level by the AAAASF (The American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities). We have been continuously certified for 20 years, and Dr. Morello is the a Past President of AAAASF. More information on accreditation is available from the associations web site (www.aaaasf.org) on which you can verify the status of accredited facilities.
Accreditation is a voluntary mark of quality, and indicates that our facility is fully equipped with the latest systems for insuring your safety during surgery and after. Our facility meets and often exceeds the same standards for patient care as those required in a hospital outpatient surgery unit.
Dr. Morello is the principal author of a recent article published in the journal "Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery" titled: "Patient Safety in Accredited Office Surgery Facilities."
Every measure has been taken to ensure your safety and comfort. Anesthesia services are provided by our own board-certified MD anesthesiologists. For the convenience of patients who wish to convalesce Morello is also credentialed in local hospitals for all of the procedures that he performs in the office.
Our facility is located 20 miles north of Manhattan, and is easily reached by automobile, train, and air (10 minutes from Westchester Airport, 30 minutes from Laguardia).
Computer Imaging
We live in a very visually oriented society, as a few minutes in front of TV or looking at a fashion magazine will attest. Pictures have a great impact on us; they speak to our emotions, and are closely linked to what we perceive as out needs, and perhaps even more so, to our wants. For years I have had to rely on my spoken words to convey to patients what I planned. Now, however, the current computer and morphing technology allows me to provide a glimpse of your future, and takes pressure off the spoken word. This is not to imply that the verbal portion of your consultation is unimportant. The rapport established therein is critical to a successful doctor-patient relationship.
No longer do you have to search photo albums for a face similar to your own. Computer imaging takes things several steps beyond, and allows changes to be made on your own picture. Imaging is thus a very personal tool.
Imaging is a means to more easily depict a realistic expectation and give you a more complete understanding. This generates a sense of security in the decision-making process, and makes the entire experience more concrete, less abstract.
The visual impact is beneficial for you and results in less presurgical anxiety. Keep in mind that I am realistic in using this technology and do not suggest enhancements that cannot be delivered. The imaging process makes it easier for you to convey your goals and expectations. It is an excellent communication tool and has added to the overall comfort level of my patients.

Ex-Ranger Gabe Kapler explains how he avoided PEDs, has quick message for Johnny Manziel
Former Texas outfielder Gabe Kapler is still very outspoken about steroids and performance-enhancing drugs, and he also has a lesson for Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel.
In an article for Baseball Prospectus, Kapler discusses many topics, including his choice not to use PEDs and his warning to fans not to judge players by size
When he was with the Rangers, Kapler acknowledged that he might be the player most suspected of using the drugs because he had a body-builder's frame. Kapler said at the time he would welcome steroid testing and even volunteered to take a test on TV (it was negative).
Writes Kapler: "Until we have a positive test, an admission of guilt, an accepted suspension or some other unequivocally accurate anecdotal evidence, we'd be wise to assume innocence so as not to unjustly jeopardize the reputations of undeserving human beings. .... Do bodybuilders use steroids? Of course. Like the American population, users come in all shapes and sizes. Men in major league baseball who don't use also vary greatly in body type."
Kapler said his career likely suffered because he didn't take PEDs.
"I was at my heaviest (around 215 pounds) and strongest, but not my leanest, during my first two seasons with the Texas Rangers at ages 24-25. (Kapler had career highs in RBIs, stolen bases and doubles in Texas.) I remember the batting practice session in which I blasted a ball into the second deck in left field at the Ballpark in Arlington, and later in the same session hit a ball onto the grassy section in center well beyond the wall that I knew instantly would go out. My power was always to the pull side, and the significance of hitting a ball right of the "400" sign with the certainty that it would leave is not to be discounted. I never again in my career felt that powerful or even close.
"I never again experienced the strength or productivity that I had at 24 and 25. ... I was about to lose my role as a major league starting outfielder and slide gracefully into my role player/"good teammate" archetype. Fame and fortune were still mine for the taking if the devil on my shoulder had a loud enough voice. He did not. PEDs have been the topic of a plethora of philosophical conversations at home with my wife. She was the one person in my life with whom I could safely and whimsically fantasize about what might be if ever I were to open Pandora's Box (600 plate appearances, 30 homers, millions of dollars?). Despite the potential fairytale, I never really got close to the decision to use PEDs. I made the choice to play clean for a myriad of reasons. Most importantly, I have an obnoxiously loud conscience. I knew I wouldn't be able to rest while cheating."
As far as making mistakes when he was younger. Kapler brought up Manziel, who has taken some controversial pictures for his Twitter account.
Wrote Kapler: "My naiveté led me astray when I thought it a good idea to supplement my minor league salary with a few bucks for taking shirtless pictures. It's entertaining to me that many years later I'm still trying to shake the image of my youth and restore credibility. (Are you listening, Johnny Manziel?)"
Kapler also described his 'neurotic' and 'insanely regimented' lifestyle in having a built physique.
Back in 1999, when he was acquired from the Tigers in the Juan Gonzalez deal, Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News wrote:
If it sounds like Kapler is supercharged, that's because he is. Even at 7 a.m. Even with a newborn baby at home. He has spent his first major league season adhering to a diet that calls for him to eat six times a day and is geared to maximize his energy. Sure seems like it's working. He is supercharged for a reason.
"I better be careful of what I say because I don't want to sound cocky," Kapler says as he washes down a handful of vitamins with a power shake that includes the unlikely combination of oatmeal, banana and flaxseed oil. "But I want to do it all. Guys who don't take care of themselves in this game tend to get weeded out.
"I want to be completely and totally natural. I really want my body to be a temple. I want to strive to be the best possible athlete and player I can be. I think that's a better goal than saying I want to hit 30 home runs and drive in 100 RBIs each year."

Thank You - Dustin Young Family
Family Thank You
Dear Mr. Damron,
I would like to thank you for all of the "smiles" that Adventures For Wish Kids brought to my son Dustin's face throughout the years. He especially cherished his time spent with the OSU Basketball players during the yearly Father & Son events! I think he is the biggest OSU Fan!!!
Life is hard enough and to have to watch your child go through things that you don't know if even you yourself could survive, makes it difficult to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I think back to times when Dustin had a surgery scheduled, being mad at the world and an invitation from Adventures would come to do an event and that smile we hadn't seen in weeks, would be a permanent fixture on his face!
This year Dustin graduated from high school, turned 19 and although he is still able to participate, we have decided that we would give back instead. Enclosed please find a check to help provide Christmas gifts and smiles for other deserving children.
Again, thank you for being there to help share our burden and for making Dustin feel like a kid when he needed it most.
God bless you for all that you do!

UC Berkeley Public Law Research Paper No. 1757982
The United States economy is struggling to recover from its worst economic downturn since the Great Depression. After several huge doses of conventional macroeconomic stimulus - deficit-spending and monetary stimulus - policymakers are understandably eager to find innovative no-cost ways of sustaining growth both in the short and long runs.
In response to this challenge, the Kauffman Foundation convened a number of America's leading legal scholars and social scientists during the summer of 2010 to present and discuss their ideas for changing legal rules and policies to promote innovation and accelerate U.S. economic growth. This meeting led to the publication of Rules for Growth: Promoting Innovation and Growth Through Legal Reform, a comprehensive and groundbreaking volume of essays prescribing a new set of growth-promoting policies for policymakers, legal scholars, economists, and business men and women.
Some of the top Rules include:
• Reforming U.S. immigration laws so that more high-skilled immigrants can launch businesses in the United States.
• Improving university technology licensing practices so university-generated innovation is more quickly and efficiently commercialized.
• Moving away from taxes on income that penalize risk-taking, innovation, and employment while shifting toward a more consumption-based tax system that encourages saving that funds investment. In addition, the research tax credit should be redesigned and made permanent.
• Overhauling local zoning rules to facilitate the formation of innovative companies.
• Urging judges to take a more expansive view of flexible business contracts that are increasingly used by innovative firms.
• Urging antitrust enforcers and courts to define markets more in global terms to reflect contemporary realities, resist antitrust enforcement from countries with less sound antitrust regimes, and prohibit industry trade protection and subsidies.
• Reforming the intellectual property system to allow for a post-grant opposition process and address the large patent application backlog by allowing applicants to pay for more rapid patent reviews.
• Authorizing corporate entities to form digitally and use software as a means for setting out agreements and bylaws governing corporate activities.
The collective essays in the book propose a new way of thinking about the legal system that should be of interest to policymakers and academic scholars alike. Moreover, the ideas presented here, if embodied in law, would augment a sustained increase in U.S. economic growth, improving living standards for U.S. residents and for many in the rest of the world.

Albergo California
Enjoy postcard views of Positano framed by ivy trailing off the shady trellis.
Albergo California
Via Cristoforo Colombo 141
Positano, Italy, Italy 84017
- Albergo California website
About this Hotel
Price From $180
Maria Cinque makes a point of chatting with every one of her guests, if not at check-in (which her son Gianni sometimes handles), then at breakfast the next morning.
She's particularly delighted to meet Americans, as she and her husband Antonio lived in the Bronx for nine years, returning to Italy in 1974 to run a family hotel five minutes' walk from the center of Positano—and to teach their children "what it means to be Italian," in Maria's words.
Six of the 15 guestrooms are in the original 1777 Palazzo Bruno, including four upstairs rooms with 18th-century ceiling frescoes.
Many regulars prefer ground-floor rooms 51 to 55 because they open directly onto the magnificent, long entrance terrace and enjoy postcard views of Positano framed by ivy trailing off the shady trellis.
Rooms without sea views (they actually look out to a wall) cost $65 less—an option certainly worth considering, since all guests have access to the terrace.
Each of the California's rooms is spacious, and seems even more so due to minimal furnishings.
At sunset, small groups gather on the terrace to sip wine, plan the next day, and pinch themselves, realizing that they've got the same view as the chichi Le Sirenuse hotel down the street for one-third the price.
Rate includes breakfast. Closed mid-November to mid-March.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
Whatever happened to Joe's Valley Reservoir? Emery County public lands member James Gilson asked the question of Rick Larsen, the Southeastern Utah Regional Director for the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources. This might not be a fair question to ask Larsen as he is new to the area and the issues of Emery County.
Larsen stated that Joe's Valley is an important fishing resource and the recent reports of elevated mercury levels in the splake is of concern to the DWR. The Utah Department of Health makes the recommendations for consumption levels of the contaminated fish. It was suggested the lands council ask someone who knows about the mercury problem to make a presentation in a future meeting.
Gilson said "We're just not gaining on the chubs. Joe's Valley is not a great family fishery any more. We need to look at fixing it and return it to a place to catch fish.
Larsen said the DWR has been working to eliminate chubs. Most of the biomass at Joe's Valley goes to the chubs. Any trout in Joe's Valley are very skinny. Gilson estimated some of the large chubs in Joe's Valley are 6-8 years old. He pointed out the reason they treated Strawberry Reservoir a few years back was because of the chubs. He wondered about such a treatment at Joe's Valley.
Larsen said the treating of a water is a political issue and he didn't know the specifics of Joe's Valley. Gary Petty, lands council member pointed out that Joe's Valley is a drinking water source. But, Gilson replied so is Strawberry and Scofield, both of which have been treated.
Mark H. Williams said, "The fishermen just don't use Joe's Valley anymore."
Larsen said treating water is a political issue and that politics sometimes puts a stop to treatment. Rotenone is a natural organic substance that degrades quickly and is used in the treatment of a water to kill fish.
Petty wondered what the public lands council could do to help the process.
Larsen said they need to just be aware of what's going on. Gilson said Joe's Valley is a valuable resource for the area and the issue needs to get out on the table. The general public is not aware of the number of chubs that are in Joe's Valley and they need to be aware.
Larsen agreed the issue needs to be talked about and solutions sought for why the people aren't using Joe's Valley any more.
The DWR is aware of one 11 pound and one 10 pound splake that have been caught at Joe's Valley this year. Most anglers that use Joe's Valley are after these trophy splake. Dead chubs are the bait of choice. The fish limit is two and only one may be over 22 inches. All trout from 15-22 inches must be immediately released. The DWR fishing nets at Joe's Valley were recently vandalized and the DWR lost the opportunity to catch and remove spawning chubs from the reservoir. The DWR has been involved the last several years in netting and destroying chubs and removing their eggs from the reservoir.
Brent Stettler, from DWR, said live bait has been used for fishing which is illegal and this illegal bait has been released into the waters and is a major cause of the chub infestation.

I was just wondering, what would you people do if you had your hands on a Death Note?
Are you as ambitious as Light and would try to use it for power? Would you be petty and just erase your enemies? Would you kill the fbi's top 10 most wanted criminal's as a vigilante for justice?
It poses an interesting dilema because a death note doesn't make you invulnerable at all ( it's not like you're goku and no one can kill you ) but it does make you powerful as fuck.
And then there's the fact that although you're probably no Yagami Light, i assume there aren't any L's out there who would get you should you not be monumentally retarded.
Personally, i probably wouldn't have the balls to use it with all the side effects it apparently brings, and my conscious probably wouldn't allow it either.

Ruan Pienaar scored 21 points to help Ulster emphatically beat the Dragons 46-19 and consolidate their status at the top of the table.
Ruan Pienaar scored 21 points to help Ulster emphatically beat the Dragons 46-19 and consolidate their status at the top of the table.
It was the visitors' sixth win from six league games and only the second occasion Ulster have won at Rodney Parade since 2006.
The Dragons, however, began the game with confidence and gusto as two long-range Tom Prydie penalties gave them an early lead.
Ulster opened their account when Ireland prop Tom Court finished a try of true quality from the Irish region. Inter-linking play between backs and forwards had the home side on the back foot before a neat offload out the tackle from Ruan Pienaar enabled Court to stroll over the Dragons' try-line.
Pienaar's conversion took the visitors into a 7-6 lead.
The Dragons retook the lead when Andy Tuilagi was on the end of well-worked try where patient phase-play and dominant forward runners breached Ulster's line.
The impressive Nick Williams brushed aside several flailing Dragons defenders on his way to scoring a converted try and restore the visitors lead to 14-13.
Prydie's third penalty edged the Dragons ahead before Ulster struck back when Pienaar tenaciously charged Prydie's misdirected kick and dotted down to take the score to 19-16.
After the break Ulster extended their lead to 25-16 thanks to two further penalties from Pienaar before Prydie responded with another penalty to leave the game finely posed with half an hour remaining.
Ulster showed their class as they put the squeeze on hosts when Darren Cave's converted try secured the bonus point.
Andrew Trimble intercepted a loose pass and raced to the line untouched to score and replacement Jared Payne scored his side's sixth try of the game to confirm Ulster's dominance in the final quarter of the game.
The scorers:
For Dragons:
Try: Tuilagi
Con: Prydie
Pens: Prydie 4
For Ulster:
Tries: Cave, Court, Payne, Pienaar, Trimble, Williams
Cons: Pienaar 5

The Wooden Sunglasses
On a nippy February day, there's nothing like a pair of metal sunglasses to send a shock of cold from your face, down your spine, and up into your frost-weary head. This is why I chose a pair in warm dark brown wood to be my winter sunglasses.
I like the modern, minimal take on the keyhole shape, the unapprochably frigid mirrorized lenses, and the warm, dark cherry wood finish. It's like an armchair for the face.
Illesteva sunglasses available at Assembly New York

Cool looking shades.
I've seen 2 other wood sunglass companies
proof http://www.iwantproof.com
and shwood http://www.shwood.com
These actually look like one of the Proof models a bit. not sure. But I like this look.
Think wood sunglasses are so cool and here to stay.
I have to give the shout out to Gold & Wood – http://www.gold-and-wood.com/en/sunglasses-collection.html

Duplin Wineries glad to see sun
Duplin Wineries glad to see sun
Duplin County - The Duplin Winery in Rose Hill, North Carolina is raking in a bountiful harvest this year. Workers say the hearty crop thrives in heat, humidity, and even rain. The primary effect of heavy summer rains on the Muscadine grape was increasing the plumpness of the fruit. Recent sunshine has helped grape farms by sweetening the water-laden grapes as well as drying the soil in the fields. Until recently, the ground had been too muddy to navigate equipment through.
Muscadines are genetically able to withstand extreme weather. Their tough outer skin and resilient inner meat help the fruit build up tons of antioxidants. In fact they have the highest antioxidant levels of any grape in the world. The one thing the grapes cannot withstand is wind. High winds from storms like hurricanes will quickly shake the fruit off their vines. In fact, it is a shaking motion that harvesters use to remove the fruit from their parent plants. With winds being light overall this year. Many grapes have held strong and are now ready for harvest.
This is the first week the winery is harvesting. They will gather Muscadines from 1,800 acres over four different states. After the fruit is plucked, cleaned, pressed and chilled, it will be fermented for several months, and should be ready to drink in about a year.
