Minimalist Fairy Tale Posters
Now, I am not one to crave the olden days or hang onto thoughts that childhood was better…but these posters are so cool and – if i had a kid – I would actually consider buying one or two for their room.
Poem of the Day
I Think Continually
I think continually of those who were truly great.
Who, from the womb, remembered the soul's history
Through corridors of light where the hours are suns
Endless and singing. Whose lovely ambition
Was that their lips, still touched with fire,
Should tell of the Spirit clothed from head to foot in song.
And who hoarded from the Spring branches
The desires falling across their bodies like blossoms.
What is precious is never to forget
The essential delight of the blood drawn from ageless springs
Breaking through rocks in worlds before our earth.
Never to deny its pleasure in the morning simple light
Nor its grave evening demand for love.
Never to allow gradually the traffic to smother
With noise and fog the flowering of the spirit.
Near the snow, near the sun, in the highest fields
See how these names are feted by the waving grass
And by the streamers of white cloud
And whispers of wind in the listening sky.
The names of those who in their lives fought for life
Who wore at their hearts the fire's centre.
Born of the sun they travelled a short while towards the sun,
And left the vivid air signed with their honour.
Sir Stephen Harold Spender (born on this day in 1909) was an English poet, novelist and essayist who concentrated on themes of social injustice and the class struggle in his work. He was appointed the seventeenth Poet Laureate Consultant in Poetry to the United States Library of Congress in 1965.
A biography of Spender was published in 1999.
Word of the Day
pettifog \ PET-ee-fog \ , verb;
1. To bicker or quibble over trifles or unimportant matters.
2. To carry on a petty, shifty, or unethical law business.
3. To practice chicanery of any sort.
Marius, my boy, you are a baron, you are rich, don't pettifog , I beg of you.
— Victor Hugo, Les Misérables
Naturally, the wonderful tubers Brillat-Savarin dug up and dished out lacked the penultimate refinements of washing and cooking, but it would've been gauche to pettifog.

Pettifog comes from the Middle Dutch word voeger meaning one who arranges things and the word petty meaning insignificant.

text: I couldn't agree more with #3 above (cooking!) I am the same way I so want to be civrtaee and try new things but I never have all the ingredients at home. In the past what I have done is on Sunday morning I decide what I want to make for dinner that week typically 3 days out of the week since we do eat our leftovers. Then on Sunday evening I go to the market and buy the ingredients I need for those 3 dinners that I plan on making. You should try that it makes cooking a bit easier!

I'm really interested in finding out.
I'm really interested in finding out.
yeah but ichigos dad was captain how come no one remembers him they have all seen him plus he had his spirt power sealed and still they dont its weird
As i fight to the top darkness overwelms all who oppose me.
No, thats not how its gonna happen, Isshin will show up in front of Ichigo himself.
This is how i see it, Ichigo is losing big time, Isshin comes along, saves the day, gives some awesome advice to his little boy and then Ichigo becomes that much stronger.
Why don't more people read these mangas?
If this is all about the anime, does he find out in the manga?
i agree with archiel about how ichigo might find out about his dad. i think when he finds out he will be very angry and blame his father 4 not saving his mother.
i have a question? does the manga say isshin left soul society 2o years ago or that he stopped being a soul reaper 2o years ago. the answer might help prove my theory
i really hope he does in a funny situation tho
Urahara knows of Isshin so I think it is safe to say that Urahara and Isshin were captains at the same time.
1st- Old man Yamamoto: he must remember Isshin since he's been there since the foundation of the 13 squads.
2nd- Soi Fong: she is a newer captain since we've seen that she wasn't captain when yoruichi was still around.
3rd- Ichimaru Gin (nobody at the moment): Gin is also a newer captain since we've seen that he wasn't a captain back when Renji and co. were learning about shinigami and it seems even at that time, Isshin was already gone.
4th- Unohana: she might be one of the older captains who remember Isshin, however this is unknown.
5th- Aizen (nobody at the moment): He might also be one of those aware of Isshin's captain status as has never been displayed at a non-captain status.
6th- Kukichi Byakuya: He was shown as a new captain in Rukia's flashback. It appears he and Gin became captains around the same time.
7th- Komamura: He was shown to have not been a captain until Yamamoto approached him.
8th- Kyouraku Shunsui: He should know about Isshin as well since it is said he was one of Yamamoto's first students.
9th- Tousen Kaname: Tousen became a shinigami to protect the peace after his wife was killed by a shinigami. He should be a relatively new captain.
10th- Hitsugaya Toushiro: Obviously a newer captain and would have no idea of Isshin
11th- Zaraki Kenpachi: also a newer captain, he killed the last one to become captain.
12th- Kurotshuchi Mayuri: Newer captain, he only became captain after Urahara left soul society so he might not know of Isshin.
13th- Ukitake Jyuushiro: He was also one of Yamamoto's first students so he should know about Isshin.
As you can see from this extremely long and probably unnecessary post () most of the squad captains would have no idea who Isshin is, much less that he was a captain. And it seems those who do know, or could know have either not realized Ichigo is Isshin's son, or are hiding it for some reason.

Economic Development leaders in Utah are optimistic that the release of John Carter from Walt Disney Studios will create interest in the state as a tourism destination. Emery, Grand, Kane, Millard, and Wayne counties were used as a backdrop for the movie that opens nationwide on March 9, 2012. The film is based on the Edgar Rice Burroughs novels about a Civil War veteran who finds himself on Mars.
"The film generated nearly $20 million in economic benefit to the state and created 275 production jobs for Utah based production crew during the filming in 2010," said Spencer Eccles, executive director of the Governor's Office of Economic Development (GOED). "There were great jobs provided to local film crew and benefits to businesses in rural Utah, including lodging, car rentals, catering, carpentry, and security. This Disney movie came to Utah because of our Motion Picture Incentive Program (MPIP) that now offers film companies up to 25 percent of the dollars left in the state in the form of a post-performance tax credit or cash rebate."
"Movies showcase the state's scenic beauty to attract visitors because travelers often want to see the locations after they've seen the films," said Leigh von der Esch, managing director of the Utah Office of Tourism and Film, an agency of GOED. "Utah's iconic landscapes are featured prominently in the film, near the cities of Big Water, Kanab, Mt. Carmel Junction, Moab, Hanksville, Factory Butte and Delta. Disney has been showcasing Utah scenery in promotions with the movie in theaters in the United Kingdom, and our travel trade team is in Berlin promoting John Carter and Utah at the worldwide trade show ITB." "Walt Disney Studios has been a valued partner for John Carter and other films shot in the state," said Marshall Moore, director of the Utah Film Commission. "We are looking forward to the next Disney production that will come our way this summer with the filming of The Lone Ranger in Utah and surrounding Western States."
Since the MPIP was created in 2004, 95 film projects have received funding, creating more than 5,000 production jobs and 2,000 production days. The projects are responsible for leaving nearly $178 million in the state. Recent films apart from John Carter that have received the incentive include all three High School Musical movies and the Oscar-nominated 127 Hours.

The February 2009 meeting of the Emery County School District Board of Education was held at Cottonwood Elementary School.
Superintendent Kirk Sitterud recommended to the Board that Deanna Hansen be approved as a preschool assistant, four days per week three hours per day at Cleveland Elementary effective Feb. 3.
Superintendent Sitterud presented one policy revision and one new policy to the Board: GCJ: Professional Staff Classifications (Revised) KBA: Title One Parent Involvement (New)
Sitterud explained that the revision of GCJ adds a missing component dealing with employees who leave the District after three years of employment and then return. Upon return, they would be provisional for one year. Policy KBA is required by Title One and outlines how the District will involve parents of Title One school children.
Superintendent Sitterud explained that an adjustment is necessary for the 2010-11 District calendar so that the dates for Fall break match the dates for the UEA convention. Fall break needs to be changed to Oct. 14-15, 2010.
Business administrator Jared Black updated the Board on the status of water shares held by the School District, recommending that the Board approve the lease of water shares to municipalities in Emery County. The leases would be identical to those offered in past years, with the only change being that we have two water shares less to lease to Castle Dale City because the District donated these water shares for the building of the Children's Justice Center.
Black presented a proposal for the purchase of two school buses. He explained that the District has only one vendor for these buses which is Bryson's out of Centerville. The quote this year came in at $100,694 per bus ($201,392 total). Members of the Board reviewed the bid and asked questions to clarify aspects of the bid.
Black presented bids for the resurfacing of the running track at Emery High School. This project was approved by the Board last Spring as a capital project.
It has taken the District several months to get bids, and only two vendors submitted bids. LE Renner submitted bids for three different surfaces, the RSS-100 ($113,500), the RSS-2000 ($161,557), and the RSS-3000 ($193,600).
Mondo submitted a proposal estimating the cost of their surface-which is top-of-the-line-at $500,000 plus ground work.
Black met previously with Emery High Principal Larry Davis and the track coaches at Emery High to discuss the options. Their recommendation is to resurface with the RSS-3000 option. This would provide a better long-term solution as it has an estimated life of 25-30 years. The top coat would have to be reapplied each 8-10 years at a cost of approximately $50,000 in today's dollars.
Black mentioned that it is important in the current budget climate that he explained the funding for this project is budgeted from capital monies, which by law are specific to facilities maintenance and upkeep, and cannot be used for salaries and benefits. This is the type of project these monies are intended to be used for.
Board President Laurel Johansen presented an award plaque to member Royd Hatt for 20 years of service as a Board member. The award was originally presented to Hatt at the Utah School Boards Association convention in January and he was the only Board member in the State to receive the 20 year award this year. Other members of the Board congratulated Hatt on his years of service.
District Director of Technology Jon Crawford gave a demonstration of the new District website, which he has been working on over the last year.
Principal Dennis Jones welcomed the Board to Cottonwood Elementary School. He welcomed teacher Lori Labrum to give the Board members a SmartBoard demonstration, after which he reported on several good news items from Cottonwood Elementary.
Citing several examples of improvement initiatives, Principal Jones emphasized that school improvement is an ongoing process at his school. The PTO has been a great help to the school, assisting in a variety of ways. The student action team gives many students the opportunity to be assigned a teacher and help with any needs the teacher has, including tutoring younger students.
The faculty uses a new DIBELS board to track testing information and provide students better individual instruction. The "200" club rewards students for practicing good public actions and the school has a new motto.
Principal Jones thanked and recognized his faculty and staff as well as the Board of Education for their continued support of Cottonwood Elementary. Johansen thanked Principal Jones for his report, noting his evident enthusiasm for school improvement.
Superintendent Sitterud reported that due to recent Legislative actions, the District has lifted the freeze on purchasing, field trips, travel and teacher enhancement payments for the remainder of the school year. It is anticipated that the District will see a 2-4 percent cut in funding this year, which can be covered by transferring qualifying maintenance and operation purchases to Capital Outlay and by using the Secure Rural Schools funding that the district should receive soon.
He explained that much of the funding for this year is one-time, meaning that the District will begin Fiscal Year 2010 with a larger deficit than just the 2-4 percent. The district will know more when revenue projections are received by the Legislature on Feb. 17 and budget decisions are then made.
Sitterud also reported the performance compensation program has been cut by 75 percent, so only 25 percent of districts will receive funding for this program and he does not know if Emery will be selected or not.
Black briefly reported that if the Federal Stimulus package is passed, the District is anticipating some revenue that can be used for building modernization, renovation and/or repairs. The funding does come with requirements and the District is currently preparing projects so that they will be ready to go if and when the funding arrives.
The March school board meeting will be on March 4 at Huntington Elementary.

Leinster are lifted by the return of talismanic centre Brian O'Driscoll for their PRO12 derby with Munster at Aviva Stadium on Saturday.
Leinster are boosted by the return of talismanic centre Brian O'Driscoll for their RaboDirect PRO12 derby with Munster at Aviva Stadium on Saturday.
He is joined in midfield by Fergus McFadden, with the returning Eoin Reddan – who is set to make his 67th Leinster appearance – partnering his Ireland colleague Jonathan Sexton at half-back.
Jamie Heaslip leads the team on his 150th game for the side and the eight is joined in the back-row by Shane Jennings and Kevin McLaughlin.
With Cian Healy unavailable this weekend due to a bicep strain, South African Heinke van der Merwe continues in the front row alongside Richardt Strauss and Mike Ross who is in line to make his 70th Leinster appearance.
Meanwhile, Munster coach Rob Penney has made six changes from the side that started against Ospreys. All those changes come up front, three involve players who were on the bench last weekend and injury to Niall Ronan (groin) and Marcus Horan (eye) were other considerations.
The backline remains the same with skipper Doug Howlett leading the side out to win his 100th competitive Munster cap.
Ronan picked up a slight groin injury in training while Horan continues to recover from a cut under the eye that he received in a club game. That means a start for Dave Kilcoyne ahead of Wian du Preez who is named on the bench, a situation that pertained in the Scarlets game when the 23-year-old impressed before being replaced by the South African.
Donnacha Ryan and Peter O'Mahony return to the XV for the first time this term while Dave O'Callaghan is in the blindside role he operated from against Treviso, Ulster and Dragons.
Form: Leinster suffered their largest PRO12 defeat for almost five years at Connacht on Friday, however Leinster have not lost successive encounters against the fellow Irish provinces since 2008/09. The Leinstermen have a 100% winning record in their 11 previous PRO12 matches at Aviva Stadium. Munster's last four matches have all been won by the home side on the day, whilst their only victory on the road in their last five games came at Edinburgh in round one.

Mike Gillis wins one
Jonathan Willis
October 06 2008 02:22PM
Two of the league's more entertaining teams (in the front office, anyway) pulled off a trade with some interesting ramifications today. Here's the deal (as per TSN.ca):
Vancouver trades:
Lukas Krajicek Juraj Simek
Tampa Bay trades:
Shane O'Brien Michel Ouellet
The Canucks have already assigned Ouellet to the Manitoba Moose, and I'd imagine Simek will be joining Tampa Bay's AHL affiliate in Norfolk.
Shane O'Brien's -5 rating last season was among the best on the Tampa Bay roster, but balanced against that was the relatively easy position he was placed in. He ranked fifth among Lightning defencemen in quality of competition, and was second only to Brad Lukowich in quality of teammates. He scored 0.81 PTS/60, recorded 154 PIM and landed 128 hits.
Michel Ouellet's transformation into AHL-calibre forward is slightly baffling. He played the 7th-toughest competition among Lightning forwards last year, and scored 2.00 PTS/60, while posting 2.88 GFON/60 and 1.92 GAON/60. He should see time in Vancouver this season, if he clears recall waivers.
On the other side of the ledger, Lukas Krajicek (dead last among Vancouver defenseman in quality of competition) remains a mildly disappointing player (0.46 PTS/60, 2.52 GFON/60, 2.86 GAON/60) who has never lieved up to his draft day expectations. Krajicek was quoted on CKNW in Vancouver as saying that "(Management) told me that Tampa wanted me for quite some time." Juraj Simek, a 6th round draft pick in 2006, was sent out along with Krajicek, but for a player with an offense-only reputation, seven goals as a rookie in the AHL is pretty close to being the kiss of death.
From a Lightning perspective, Krajicek is the key player in the deal, but I think the Canucks win this hands down.

"Michel Ouellet's transformation into AHL-calibre forward is slightly baffling. He played the..." don't leave me hanging here.... skin flute? lead role in a broadway musical? price is right?
October 06 2008, 03:11PM
Thanks for pointing that out, man. It's been fixed.
October 06 2008, 03:47PM
"He should see time in Vancouver this season, if he clears recall waivers."
Did this part mean to be about Ouellet, and not O'Brien? Because O'Brien is a clear-cut NHLer and by no reason should he find himself in Manitoba this year. Don't get me wrong, I'd be damn happy to have him here but he's just too good. Guess this makes Edler-O'Brien the 3rd pairing for the Nucks, and Davison as the 7th man.
That's a damn good defense corps Vancouver's built up there. Too bad there's no #4 anymore to make up for the loss of when Ohlund leaves this summer.
As an aside, Gillis made today a twofer in terms of great decisions. He sent Hodgson out to feats on AA pitching to steal an LT saying. He was good enough to make the team, but at this point he's better off being a leader than a 5-minute guy.
October 06 2008, 04:04PM
DG: Yeah, that's a formatting error of some kind. DJ, could we clear the "7th-toughest competition among Lightning forwards last year, and scored 2.00 PTS/60, while posting 2.88 GFON/60 and 1.92 GAON/60. He should see time in Vancouver this season, if he clears recall waivers."?
Although I bear full responsibility for Krajicek's failure to "liev" up to expectations.
Getting Ouellet should be quite a coup for Manitoba- have to think Vancouver tries to sneak him through re-entry waivers at some point.
October 06 2008, 04:04PM
And by clear, I just mean off of O'Brien's paragraph, not Ouellet's ;)
October 06 2008, 10:05PM
I don't know, I think Krajicek will be a better player than O'brien even if he doesn't end up as good as predicted on draft day. Tampa really doesn't give up anything either way, and they have a possibility of getting something in return.
October 06 2008, 10:52PM
Bang on assessment, Jonathan. Vancouver won this one, as it needed some toughness, and got some. A younger, perhaps better version of the Strudwick-class defender for Vancouver, who already have some skill on "d."

So cute but check proper sizing!!
"Great bootie for my daughter! My only complaint are the size choices. You have a choice between 6, 12, 18 and 24 months. But the sizing should indicate 6-12 months, 12-18 months etc. instead. I had ordered a 12 month shoe, but the bootie fits between ages from 6-12 months so the size probably would not fit if you are expecting it to fit a 12 month year old child. My daughter is 10 months and I am not sure how long she is able to wear them for but I guess I will just cross my fingers and hopefully they last through the long winter months."

HealthDay Reporter
WEDNESDAY, Jan. 29, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- People who need skin grafts because of burns or other injuries might someday get lab-grown, bioengineered skin that works much like real human skin, Swiss researchers report.
This new skin not only has its own blood vessels but also -- and just as important -- its own lymphatic vessels. The lymph vessels are needed to prevent the accumulation of fluids that can kill the graft before it has time to become part of the patient's own skin, the researchers said.
The discovery that lymph vessels can be grown in a laboratory also opens up "a broad spectrum of possibilities in the field of tissue engineering, since all organs in the human body -- with the exception of the brain and inner ear -- contain lymph vessels," said lead researcher Daniela Marino, from the Tissue Biology Research Unit at University Children's Hospital Zurich.
"These data strongly suggest that if an engineered skin graft containing both blood and lymph vessels would be transplanted on human patients, fluid formation would be hindered, wound healing would be improved and regeneration of a near natural skin would be greatly promoted," Marino said.
The researchers said that until now, bioengineered skin grafts had not contained much of the components of real skin, including blood and lymphatic vessels, pigmentation, sweat glands, nerves and hair follicles.
Blood vessels transport nutrients, oxygen and other essential factors that keep organs alive and functioning. Lymph vessels remove fluid from the tissue and return it to the bloodstream.
"When skin is wounded, fluid builds up in the damaged tissue," Marino said. "If not efficiently removed, it accumulates to form so-called seromas, which may impair wound closure and skin regeneration."
To create the new skin, Marino's group used human cells from blood and lymph vessels, placing them in a solution that scattered the cells onto a skin-like gel. After time in an incubator, the mixture grew into skin grafts.
The researchers then tested the grafts on rats, and found that the bioengineered skin turned into near-normal skin. After connecting the graft to the rats' own lymph system, it collected and drew fluid away from the tissue -- just as normal skin does.
Skin grafts grown this way might find their best use in patients with severe burns who do not have enough of their own healthy skin available for grafts, the researchers said.
Experts note, however, that experiments in animals don't always work out when tested in people. But Marino said she is hopeful that trials in humans are not too far away.
Not everyone is sure there will be a big role for these types of grafts, however.
Dr. Alfred Culliford, director of plastic, reconstructive and hand surgery at
Staten Island University Hospital in New York City, called the bioengineered tissue "a technology in search of a purpose."
"I don't think it will be broadly applicable to many people who need skin grafts," Culliford said. "It may be helpful in burn patients who have had a large portion of their body surface burned and don't have enough healthy skin to transplant."
Culliford said the best grafts for most patients still come from the patient's own skin. In addition, he said he doesn't believe adding lymph vessels to a graft is a great advance, since fluid drainage is now done by methods such as compressing the graft.
But Dr. Robert Glatter, an emergency physician and burn expert at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City, saw more promise in the technology.
"Although we are still in animal models, in the near term there is a significant possibility this could remarkably change the way we deal with non-healing wounds," Glatter said.
Non-healing wounds are generally found among people with diabetes or vascular disease whose own skin doesn't function normally. "They don't heal well with standard skin grafts," Glatter said.
For her part, Marino said the newer tissue is a real advance.
"Taken together, it is most important to have both blood and lymph vessels in a bioengineered skin to initiate nutrition soon after transplantation and to maintain the balance of tissue fluids," she said. "This long-awaited step in regenerative medicine is now in reach."
The report was published Jan. 29 in the journal Science Translational Medicine.

Gospel Reading

4th Tuesday after Pascha
The Gospel according to John 7:1-13
At that time, Jesus went about in Galilee; he would not go about in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him. Now the Jews' feast of Tabernacles was at hand. So his brothers said to him, "Leave here and go to Judea, that your disciples may see the works you are doing. For no man works in secret if he seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, show yourself to the world." For even his brothers did not believe in him. Jesus said to them, "My time has not yet come, but your time is always here. The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify of it that its works are evil. Go to the feast yourselves; I am not going up to this feast, for my time has not yet fully come." So saying, he remained in Galilee.
But after his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly but in private. The Jews were looking for him at the feast, and saying, "Where is he?" And there was much muttering about him among the people. While some said, "He is a good man," others said, "No, he is leading the people astray." Yet for fear of the Jews no one spoke openly of him.

Despite being comfortably beaten by France, Italy will no doubt enter Saturday's clash with England full of confidence at Stadio Olimpico.
Despite them being comfortably beaten by France in Paris, Italy will no doubt enter Saturday's meeting with the English full of confidence at Stadio Olimpico.
As is the way of the Azzurri, they had managed to hold a bigger-named rival to a slender margin for a large period – 15-9 after 50 minutes to be exact.
But then the opposition clicked into top gear and outclassed Italy to eventually cruise. Now the question is, do England have the same class?
"We analysed the Rugby World Cup matches and up to the 60th minutes it was always 9-6, 6-6, and it was really in the final 20 minutes that you saw the difference so we had to be patient," said new France head coach Philippe Saint-Andre following their tough win at Stade de France last weekend.
"We saw in their game a tactic to go for territory but today they were much more ambitious in their game-plan and keeping the ball.
"Italy employed a strategy that saw them keep the ball. They didn't give it up easily."
Expect exactly the same grit and determination in Rome this Saturday as Jacques Brunel will be hoping his side replicate the performance that defeated France in this tournament last season. He makes two changes to his side as Aironi lock Marco Bortolami will earn his 90th cap as he replaces Treviso's Cornelius Van Zyl. That decision has left many bemused as nothing has been mentioned on whether Van Zyl suffered an injury in his strong showing.
In the backline, Clermont centre Gonzalo Canale will start in place of Alberto Sgarbi, who has been omitted from the squad. He'll give the Azzurri plenty of grunt alongside Tommaso Benvenuti, with both needing to win personal battles against Owen Farrell and Brad Barritt.
"I believe we can do it and all the team really believes we can do it," revealed Canale, despite the English having won all seventeen internationals against Italy to date.
Confidence indeed as bookmakers have Italy at 3/1 and the visitors starting at 1/4, which does seem a touch off the mark for a game that is expected to be close. England did not create much against Scotland and should that trend continue, there may be something of a stalemate. However, the Italians are not known for their attacking prowess and as England showed in Edinburgh, their defence looks to be on the money. Is it a recipe for dullness?
England might not care about flair though and – by their own count – they made more tackles than ever before in a Test match and conceded a mere nine penalties at Murrayfield. The old adage of winning because of defence could well be the formula England adopt under Stuart Lancaster. Comparing to last year against Italy, Chris Ashton scored four as England won 59-13 – but also they conceded 18 penalties, so there is expected to be a shift in thinking.
"It's a mindset in the team now, with people realising the impact it can have on a game if we keep giving away penalties. It is massive for us," said Ashton, who starts in an unchanged starting line-up and bench as Lancaster gives a second chance to the likes of Phil Dowson.
"At the World Cup it cost us a lot and in the end it is what got us knocked out, basically. It is something we have focused on a lot.
"Sometimes when you are involved with the team, you can't see that [behaviour off the pitch could influence performance on it].
"Sometimes it takes someone like Stu to come in from the outside and realise that."
Lessons seem to be being learnt by England but will they pass their Italian test?
Ones to watch:
For Italy: Aironi lock Marco Bortolami will earn his 90th cap as he replaces Treviso's Cornelius Van Zyl in the second-row, who put in a superb performance last weekend. Bortolami has got to follow suit this week and not let the side down as it doesn't take a rocket scientist to fathom that the hosts will be looking to get amongst England from the outset. Of course, it would also be worthwhile keeping an eye on that man Sergio Parisse.
For England: Keeping the scoreboard ticking over is key in Rome and that is why Owen Farrell and Chris Robshaw need to be on the same page when offences present themselves. Last week's joint top-tackler Brad Barritt is expected to produce another steely performance while we're expecting a bit more from number eight Phil Dowson this week and would not be surprised if he popped up wide out for an English score.
Head-to-head: We are most looking forward to seeing how young pretender Alex Corbisiero fronts up against the gritty Martin Castrogiovanni. There is little doubt that the Leicester tighthead will be going after his Aviva Premiership rival on Saturday and it will comfort Stuart Lancaster knowing that Matt Stevens is an option should things get a touch uncomfortable. Elsewhere, the Gonzalo Canale against Owen Farrell battle sees two different styles collide.
Recent results:
2011: England won 59-13 at Twickenham
2010: England won 17-12 in Rome
2009: England won 36-11 at Twickenham
2008: England won 23-19 in Rome
2007: England won 20-7 at Twickenham
2006: England won 31-16 in Rome
2005: England won 39-7 at Twickenham
2004: England won 50-9 in Rome
2003: England won 40-5 at Twickenham
2002: England won 45-9 in Rome
2001: England won 80-23 at Twickenham
Prediction: It is going to be a gruelling day at the office but England to win by 6-10 points!
The teams:
Italy: 15 Andrea Masi, 14 Giovanbattista Venditti, 13 Tommaso Benvenuti, 12 Gonzalo Canale, 11 Luke McLean, 10 Kristopher Burton, 9 Edoardo Gori, 8 Sergio Parisse (c), 7 Robert Barbieri, 6 Alessandro Zanni, 5 Quintin Geldenhuys, 4 Marco Bortolami, 3 Martin Castrogiovanni, 2 Leonardo Ghiraldini, 1 Andrea Lo Cicero.

The Emery High baseball team was supposed to play three games last week but the Tuesday region game at South Sevier was postponed to later in the month due to the inclement weather that day. Emery did play Gunnison in a non-region game and lost 10-6 and then rebounded by defeating the San Juan Broncos at home on Friday by the score of 3-2.
In the region 15 game against San Juan, Emery scored the first run in the bottom of the first inning to lead early on. San Juan tied the score in the top of the fourth and the game stayed that way until the bottom of the sixth inning. In that inning, Drexler Tanner got a base hit and under speed-up rules was replaced as a runner by Slayde Childs. Childs would score on a passed ball as the Spartans regained the lead.
San Juan tied the score in the top of the seventh inning and the game went to extra innings as Emery could not respond. In the bottom of the eighth inning, lead-off batter Ridge Nielson walked, got to second on a sacrifice bunt by Tappen Draper and then scored on a base hit by Tyson Roper.
Dillon Wilstead started on the mound for Emery and held the Broncos at bay most of the game. Dillon pitched a complete game, gave up three base hits and struck out 13 batters. Emery only had five base hits in the game but made the most of them. Two Emery errors aided in the Bronco runs.
Against Gunnison, coach Steven Gordon said, "We had no intensity in that game, we had no desire to be there." Emery out hit Gunnison 14-10 but left runners stranded at second base and third base all game long as the batters did not come through when needed.
Baylee Bolotas was the starting pitcher and took the loss. Four Emery batters had extra base hits in the game, all being doubles. Wilstead, Roper, Gavin McDermott and Marco Mota all had doubles.
Emery plays three games this week, Richfield at home on Tuesday, North Sevier home on Wednesday and at Grand on Friday.

Why? Because let me tell you, a "Maia" name for a Japanese -american parents born girl is more than unusual. And on top of that, her brother is...Alex.
And two women: Domnina and Khoklova. That would be epic.
But the idea is amusing and I've thought about it before, and you never know!

Don Iovino's 6" Spade Tail Worm
A great bait for catching finicky bass, the Don Iovino 6" Spade Tail Worm is hand-poured, providing the softness and action needed for drop shot and finesse tactics. Legendary angler Don Iovino is widely regarded as the "Godfather of Finesse," and he designed the unique shape and ribs of the Spade Tail Worm to help attract finicky bass when other worms can't cut it. Available in a variety of proven colors, the Don Iovino 6-in Spade Tail Worm is a proven winner.

Customer Reviews
Comments: Hands down the finest plastics I have fished with. Don is the master. These REALLY DO catch bass anywhere, any time. I get Don't plastics are a little more expensive than other brands, but they are well worth the price!
From: Joshua: Encinitas, CA 4/4/16
Comments: Bar none, the most effective dropshot worm on the planet. The Godfather of Finesse, knows his stuff. The various colors are spot on for California waters, worked just as well for me on the east coast, and in the south.
From: B: USA 5/23/15
Comments: Some unique colors designed by the legendary master of soft plastics. Compound is firm yet soft enough for all applications. Thanks for sharing Mr. Iovino!
From: Keith: Sacramento, CA
Comments: thanks to Patron, I'm gonna let u in on a secret...this worm in PB&J catches fish any time, any where. Texas rig. Where is the lime. SHOT!
From: meatwad: shotshotshotshotshot
Comments: Awesome worms, I ordered some custom white ones. You won't find a better chatter bait trailer. Also fishing them weightless in the grass works extremely well.

When basic classics and a slight touch of glam come together in unison, they make a killer combo that we like to call 'rock steady'. Paige Denim seems to follow this anthem, (or should we say define it) in their new Fall 2011 Lookbook. It features ultra-appealing denim pieces set to launch just in time for the leaves to start turning, worn by British Pop Model Poppy Delevigne. The line has a strong emphasis on detail, such as chunky zippers. Classic Washes come into play, along with not so classic colors, such as burgundy and fire engine red, (perhaps a fall trend to look out for.) We love the women's line, but ultimately have a soft spot for the Men's, which is a blend of more traditional style and colors but nonetheless, seem to ooze sex appeal. Who doesn't love that?

The fourth edition of Fidelity's Plan Sponsor Attitudes Survey is out today, showing some appetite for change.
The online survey polled 937 plan sponsors with a variety of recordkeepers, which varied in size from as little as 25 participants to as many as 10,000.
According to the findings, 38% of plan sponsors say they are less than satisfied or not satisfied with their advisor. On the heels of this, 10% of plan sponsors are actively looking to change advisors, and 45% of sponsors switch both the advisor and recordkeeper.
While that figure has declined from as high as 17% in 2008, it's still relevant, given the recent moves by big players like CalPers, which earlier this year said it was considering entirely passive investments, and whose year-end performance as of June 2013 was hailed by some as the work of its passive investments. Clearly, the desire for cheaper, more efficient investing is on the minds of investors large and small.
Still, that's not to say that passive management is for everyone. Per the Fidelity survey, the top reason for switching, at 31%, was the need for a more knowledgeable advisor, a tick upward from 30% who named that reason last year. Twenty-eight percent of participants said they were looking to switch because of servicing issues with a plan provider, nearly double the 15% who cited that in 2012. Twelve percent said they would switch because they are not receiving enough advisor support for plan servicing, named by 8% in last year's survey.

New Zealand's top two sides face off on Friday as the Chiefs host the Crusaders for what should be a titanic clash at Waikato Stadium.
New Zealand's top two sides face off on Friday as the Chiefs host the Crusaders in Hamilton.
The 2012 champion Chiefs find themselves top of the Super Rugby table and currently six points clear of the Crusaders, setting the opportunity to open up a comfortable gulf between themselves and the rest of the New Zealand sides after this weekend.
Coming into Friday's match on the back of four successive wins over the Sharks, Rebels, Force and Hurricanes, the Chiefs have only lost twice all season.
Despite much being made of the loss of Sonny Bill Williams before the season began, the Chiefs remain one of the best attacking sides in the league.
No one has scored more tries (37) or made more offloads (154) thus far in the competition, and the Chiefs find themselves amongst the top five for metres made, defenders beaten and clean breaks.
A large portion of their success has come down the form of Gareth Anscombe. The Chiefs fly-half is the joint top points scorer in the league with Morné Steyn on 163, having also racked up five tries of his own. Tim Nanai-Williams has also heavily contributed with six.
Sam Cane, who starts from the bench on Friday, has underlined the title given him to his last year of being Richie McCaw's heir apparent to the All Black number seven jersey, with only three players having made more tackles in the league than his 154. His combination with Liam Messam has been outstanding.
Putting the Crusaders early season troubles down to a lack of McCaw influence over the side seems harsh given the talent remaining in their squad, but the season has not been easy for Todd Blackadder's side.
A run of three losses followed by three victories since the beginning of April highlight how scattered their form has been.
Dan Carter's struggles with injury have played a part in unsettling a back division that has failed to hit the heights in attack, running in eight tries less than the Chiefs so far with 29 and making 39 fewer clean breaks.
Their defence has remained strong, finding themselves in the top five, but the Crusaders true strength has been their scrum with a success rate of 97 percent.
Combined with a superior lineout – 83.9 percent to the Chiefs' 80.3 percent – the Crusaders have a clear advantage at the set-piece which combined with Carter's knowledgable boot offers the key to success and to narrowing the gap at the top of the New Zealand Conference.
The Chiefs and Crusaders are however inseparable at the breakdown. Both have a ruck success percentage of 96, making the work of the likes of Messam and Tanerau Latimer, Matt Todd and Kieran Read all the more important.
Chiefs coach Dave Rennie has made two changes to his starting XV with Ben Tameifuna comes in at prop for Ben Afeaki, who is out this week with a calf strain, while Patrick Osborne starts on the wing.
There are three changes to the bench, with Toby Smith, Sam Cane and Lelia Masaga moving into the reserves.
Crusaders coach Todd Blackadder has recalled Israel Dagg into his starting XV, with Tom Taylor moving to inside centre, Ryan Crotty shifting to 13, replacing Robbie Fruean, who drops to the bench.
There is one change to the pack with hooker Codie Taylor taking over from Ben Funnell.
Prediction: Extremely close to call, but the Chiefs attack is capable of producing the decisive score. Chiefs by 3!
The teams:
Chiefs: 15 Robbie Robinson, 14 Patrick Osborne, 13 Charlie Ngatai, 12 Bundee Aki, 11 Asaeli Tikoirotuma, 10 Aaron Cruden, 9 Tawera Kerr-Barlow, 8 Matt Vant Leven, 7 Tanerau Latimer, 6 Liam Messam, 5 Brodie Retallick, 4 Craig Clarke (c), 3 Ben Tameifuna, 2 Hika Elliot, 1 Pauliasi Manu.
Replacements: 16 Mahonri Schwalger, 17 Toby Smith, 18 Michael Fitzgerald, 19 Sam Cane, 20 Augustine Pulu, 21 Dan Waenga, 22 Lelia Masaga.
Crusaders: 15 Israel Dagg, 14 Tom Marshall, 13 Ryan Crotty, 12 Tom Taylor, 11 Zac Guildford, 10 Dan Carter, 9 Andy Ellis, 8 Kieran Read (c), 7 Matt Todd, 6 George Whitelock, 5 Sam Whitelock, 4 Luke Romano, 3 Nepo Laulala, 2 Codie Taylor, 1 Wyatt Crockett.
Replacements: 16 Ben Funnell/Laurence Corlett, 17 Joe Moody, 18 Dominic Bird, 19 Luke Whitelock, 20 Willi Heinz, 21 Robbie Fruean, 22 Telusa Veianu.
Date: Friday, May 24
Venue: Waikato Stadium, Hamilton
Kick-off: 19.35 (07.35 GMT)

We've been working hard to make using your Girl Scout's Program Credits more convenient. We are creating "Program Credits cards" for all Girl Scouts who have a current balance of Program Credits. We will be mailing these cards to the individual girls.
Each girl's card will be loaded with her remaining Program Credits, to be used just like a gift card or a Starbucks card. The Program Credit card can be used to pay for anything she would have used her program credits on it. Of course, this card can only be used for Girl Scout activities and purchases.
Because we will be switching out how we keep track of credits, there will be a short period when Program Credits aren't available for use. This will begin Friday, November 22, at 4 p.m. We will mail out the new cards on Wednesday, November 27. When you receive your Girl Scout's Program Credits card, you are welcome to start using it! We will send a receipt with each card so you know how many Program Credits your Girl Scout has available.
Using the Program Credits Card for Registering for Events
Until we start using e-council, we will have space on the registration form so that each girl's Program Credits can be used as payment. The number will need to be entered on the form.
Using the Program Credits Card for Purchases
In the store, just bring in the card or the card number for each girl. If you are using our online shop, you will be able to enter the card number and the girl's name in the ordering instructions.
Similar to gift cards, the Program Credits Cards are like cash and should be carefully secured. We will be keeping you up to date as we continue implementing this process. Thank you for your patience as we work to become more efficient!

Last week, my husband and I took a few days off work to spend with our teenage son during spring break. That Patrick enjoys hanging out with us is nothing short of amazing, and for that we are blessed.
Toward the end of the week, we made an overnight trip to Birmingham to eat at Highlands Bar and Grill, one of Frank Stitt's restaurants. Charlie and I have been enjoying the Highlands for years and we introduced our kids to it about four years ago.
The three of us shared two appetizers and then Charlie ordered braised rabbit with foie gras, dried figs and Swiss chard, Patrick had flounder with an artichoke, fennel and olive relish served over farro, and I chose the black grouper with an onion pirlau, leeks, Brussels sprouts and pea tendrils.
There is a reason Frank Stitt is named one of the best chefs in the Southeast.
Before we left B'ham, we stopped at a Whole Foods to buy some specialty items and as we passed the meat counter, I spied a particularly pretty piece of London broil. We picked it up, thinking we'd grill it as usual, but after we got back home, I started poking around in cookbooks looking for something different.
I came across this hoisin sauce recipe for grilling chicken or pork, but decided it would be good on grilled beef as well.
It was.
We served the thinly sliced steak over basmati rice and drizzled the sauce over the top. Steamed green beans with sliced almonds rounded out the meal. It wasn't Frank Stitt quality by any means, but it was good.
Hoisin Grilling Sauce
1/2 cup hoisin sauce
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
3 tablespoons pineapple juice
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Pinch Chinese five-spice powder
1/3 cup water
1/3 cup sugar
Whisk together hoisin sauce, vinegar, pineapple juice, soy sauce, ginger, pepper flakes and five-spice powder in a medium bowl. Set aside.
Place water in a 2-quart saucepan; pour sugar in center of pan, taking care not to let sugar crystals adhere to sides of pan. Cover and bring mixture to a boil over high heat; once boiling, uncover and continue to boil until syrup is thick and straw-colored, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and continue to cook until syrup is golden amber, 1 to 2 minutes longer. Quickly remove saucepan from heat and whisk in hoisin mixture. Return to medium heat and cook, whisking constantly, until caramel has dissolved and sauce has thickened, about 2 minutes. Transfer 1/2 cup to a small bowl to use for basting when grilling meat. Set aside remaining sauce for serving.

"On the 2009 reading test, for example, seventh-graders in one Noyes classroom averaged 12.7 wrong-to-right erasures per student on answer sheets; the average for seventh-graders in all D.C. schools on that test was less than 1. The odds are better for winning the Powerball grand prize than having that many erasures by chance, according to statisticians consulted by USA TODAY."
A USA Today investigative piece looks at high erasure rates on standardized tests at Washington, DC's Crosby S. Noyes Education Campus, which went from a school in need to one of DC's 'shining stars.'" The report notes that three years ago, DC's Office of the State Superintendent of Education asked test-maker McGraw-Hill to do "erasure analysis" after some schools showed big gains in in proficiency rates on April 2008 tests. "Among 96 schools flagged for wrong-to-right erasures were eight of the 10 campuses where [DC Superintendent Michelle] Rhee handed out so-called TEAM awards 'to recognize, reward and retain high-performing educators and support staff,' as the district's website says. Noyes was one of these."
