The fear of pasta deprivation is one of the things that turns people away from low-carb diets. The cries ring out: "I can't live without my pasta!" Fear not. There are many low-carb alternatives to pasta, and at least one possibly lower-carb pasta on the market.

The Role of Pasta

There are some true hard-core pasta-lovers. These people would just as soon sit down to a serving of plain pasta as anything they can think of. But for most of us, plain pasta doesn't cut it – it's the sauces and toppings we want most. For us, pasta is mostly a vehicle for other flavors. So we need to find a different vehicle to fill that role.

Note: if you do eat regular pasta, be sure to cook it al dente, as this reduces the amount the pasta will raise your blood sugar. In the U.S., pasta is seldom cooked this way, so click on the link to find out what al dente is and how to cook pasta this way.

Enter: Vegetables

Many vegetables are bland enough to use as a "blank canvas" for pasta sauces, and most of them are far more nutritious than pasta ever thought of being. Take the classic, spaghetti squash. Cup for cup, it has fewer than 25% of the calories and carbs of regular spaghetti (even whole wheat) – AND beats out the pasta in most nutrient categories. Calorie for calorie, it simply leaves pasta in the dust, nutritionally speaking. It's delicious with pesto, creamy sauces, you name it. It can also be used in casseroles, like Turkey Tetrazinni. If you've never cooked spaghetti squash before, have no fear; it's easy.

Other veggies that serve as good "beds" for pasta sauces:

Zucchini or other summer squash, shredded, julienned, or just cut into ribbons with a peeler. To make them even more noodle-like, try my Zucchini "Pasta" recipe - great with pesto.

Cauliflower "Rice"

Cabbage - shredded and sautéed (nice with a little sliced onion in it)

Bean sprouts – lighted sautéed on their own, or throw them in with the cabbage for the final minute.

Use your imagination – many veggies have compatible flavors with sauces, such as green beans with pesto sauce or eggplant strips with marinara.

Have you Heard of A Spiralizer?

I'm just starting to experiment with a gizmo that turns vegetables into noodles, called a spiral slicer or spiralizer. I hope to bring you more about this tool in 2016, but here are a couple of highly rated ones you might want to investigate, on Amazon.com:

Müeller Spiral-Ultra 4-Blade Spiralizer

Spiralizer® 4-Blade Vegetable Spiral Slicer

Low-Carb Asian Noodles

You may have to do some looking for these - or then again, maybe not. They are great for making Asian noodle dishes, and other dishes as well:

Shirataki Noodles – More and more widely available, (the Safeway near me carries it, as well as health food stores) this stuff is something of a miracle food. The noodles are made from a plant called different things in different languages - you might see it called "yam noodle" or "Konnyaku". The great thing about these noodles is that they are almost completely fiber – they hardly have any calories or carbs at all – plus there is some evidence that they may have other health benefits, such as lowering cholesterol and blood sugar. It comes packaged in liquid, which you rinse off. If you run it under the hot water tap, it's all ready to eat – no need to cook further! More about Shirataki Noodles and Where to Find Them

Tofu Noodles – I can only find these in Asian stores. Make sure that tofu is the only ingredient. Again, these come already cooked. I just put them in a strainer and run them under the hot water faucet while I separate them with my fingers. I use them for almost any pasta application, including pesto.

Dreamfields Pasta

Dreamfields is a widely-available pasta, which works well for some people, but overall people have had mixed reactions to it. In 2011, I did an investigation of Dreamfields pasta from different angles. If you use this pasta, be sure to read this, and follow the advice at the end.

Posted by Stephen Mann on September 2, 2011
"I remember when I lost my mind" … oops that's Gnarls Barkley. I should have started with … I remember when software asset management (SAM) was on my radar as an IT service management (ITSM) practitioner. It was circa 2003, and my then employer was scared to death of the implications of non-compliance. We did some ground work but IMO it somewhat "died a death" when we realized that we had no idea where all the purchase records were – let's assume they are all compliant now. Since then I have viewed SAM as just being on the to-do list for far too many organizations, never quite making it into the realms of actual "doing." Sad but true.
Thankfully, however, my first three months at Forrester is changing this opinion – as 30% to 40% of my client inquiries relate to IT asset management (ITAM) and SAM (if you are interested the other 60% to 70% relate to ITIL adoption, process improvement, and ITSM tool selection – there's a lot of tool replacement going on). SAM is rising from the ashes of its compliance era, in many ways this time "it's all about the Benjamins."

I am trying to teach an individual everyday English for life/situations in the United States (things like form filling, shopping etc).
He is in his early 20's and is moving to the US for employment reasons. He is very motivated and is improving English through self study and individual lessons.
The individual is also at an advanced level so most material is too easy for him (e.g. ordering in a restaurant.) I am at an absolute loss as to how I can challenge him.
During the lesson we only focus on speaking - any reading or writing would be homework.
Could anybody give me tips/ideas for what kind of topics we could cover and which sort of activities we could do?
Many thanks!

Post some things you thought about the book here. I just finished it and have nobody to talk to about it.
Post some things you thought about the book here. I just finished it and have nobody to talk to about it.
i've read it twice! i thought johnny's narrative was way more unsettling and interesting than the navidson story, which i didn't find as spooky as people say it is. except for, uh, pages 275-312 in my edition, when navidson and co. are getting deeper and deeper into the house going faster and faster. that shit was intense. other than that though, when i was reading the navidson story, i found myself kind of just waiting for it to get back to johnny. he was the best part of the book, imo. it's probably the best descent-into-madness story i've ever read. did you read the newest edition of the book, with the whalestoe letters at the end? that part is insane, no pun intended.
i gotta admit though, around the middle when it's focusing more on karen and there's all these interviews and quotes from journalists and stuff, i find myself kind of zoning out.
i think it's a great book overall, even if it can get kind of pretentious and boring at times. the imagination and creativity in it is amazing! i loved flipping back and forth, looking for clues and trying to figure out what was going on. and it's pretty damn creepy.
Yeah mines the newest edition. I stopped at the letters to give myself something to do tonight.
I thought it was pretty great, but I agree with the people who say its mostly a love story. Pretty great.
So, what do you think about Johnny at the end with thr band? You think that actually happened? Do you think he found peace? Think he died? I'm torn on it.
ha, i have no idea. it's hard to say how much of johnny's story actually happened and how much of it he made up. that incident with the band was the last thing johnny wrote, right? i'd imagine he just kept going down whatever path he was on. probably died eventually. i can't picture that guy getting better, haha.
and i didn't really pick up on the love story aspect. i can definitely see it, looking back, but i never really felt it when i was reading it. to me it was just about insanity. johnny's mental insanity and navidson's physical insanity. told in such a crazy way it kind of makes you feel insane. which is all pretty creepy. definitely the most unsettling book i've ever read.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by roscoe36, Jun 23, 2009.
ok round 2, each team gets 2 minutes to pick
Hey AG! Where you been hiding?
I'm eating a burger from Fudrucker's. It's ok. I'd give it a 6 out of 10.
2nd round...Aminu? Danny Green? Feels like the Pistons might be able to get someone of value still.
daam pistons need to trade down somehow and take dejuan blair.
DeJuan Blair slipping waaaay down. We have our mini-Tay. How bout we get ourselves a mini-Max?
Pistons take DaJuan Summers at 35.
Goran Suton with the 44th pick :D
Hey Worm, I am flipping back and forth to the Micheal Jackson Story. Both my guys got drafted by someone else. Earl Clarke and Tony Douglas. How are you Worm??? You know me, Pistons fan for life.
nice pick-up for the pistons
What a tease. Dude came to the podium and announced a trade with the Pistons up. Then announced some garbage trade involving 2 other teams....
"With Rasheed Wallace being a free agent and McDyess the same way, we had to focus on the frontcourt," Pistons president of basketball operations Joe Dumars said. "He is skinnier than Tayshaun," Dumars acknowledged. "But we like his skill set." "Those kids grow up around basketball and they see behind the scenes more than the 2 hours of play, how hard you work in the offseason and the sacrifices you make," Dumars said. "It does help because they come in much better prepared for this world." Pistons coach Michael Curry said Daye was a "hybrid-type forward," who is effective shooting jumpers, dribbling to create a shot or scoring on low-post moves. "Rashard Lewis, he reminds me of a guy like that," said Curry Yeah, that's what I was thinking... this kid will replace Sheed & Dice Summers is more like it.
Not bad. 2 SFs though? Going the way of Washington/Plaisted?
might still get the 3 point shooting danny green
I wanna have faith in Joe, but there is no structure in place in his drafts. He's throws **** and prays that it sticks.
^^^^^^^^^^^^where did you get that from^^^^^^^^^^^^ and why do i keep getting quotes stuck in my replies???
I hope we can somehow land DaJaun Blair with our next pick
two forwards one underweight the other 6'8" with shoes! i dont know about that. At least Blair has a meanstreak! I got money says blair ends up the better than summers or day!
Nope, Spurs got him. Spurs San Antonio makes quality moves year after year.
they might go small next. I dont see a promising big left unless they pick some unknown euro
Separate names with a comma.

Obviously "mobile" is a hot topic today. It amazes me to see everyone with a smart phone. I don't think anyone can argue the value that device provides in your hands as you go about your day. Just being able to find your destination on map is of value to those "directionally challenged." In corporate America, it is also obvious that each and every employee of company X has their own smart phone. And more and more technology-savvy employees want to conduct business using these devices. This presents an interesting challenge to corporate America. How can they enable their employees to conduct some aspects of their business using the phones that they already have.
So based on my history with IT shops, here is the typical thinking. The CTO says that they need to provide a mobile presence to their sales managers, let say. "Let's create a mobile application that gives access to their customer information database", for example. Sounds like a great idea. But because this is a new cutting edge project, the effort is done as a skunkworks project, off to the side outside the boundaries of normal IT tools and processes. A group of sharp (and typically young) developers are given free reign to create this app. They go off and so some great work, producing a simple but usable application.
This scenario poses lots of problems. Obviously in the BYOD (bring your own device) world, we are have numerous platforms that must be supported to keep everyone happy. We also have a security issue. Access to the corporate network requires some type of VPN and we are now exposing corporate information to a non-corporate device. I would assume this causes lots of lost sleep.
But in my world, there is also a more fundamental issue. Developing key applications for corporate employees outside of the normal IT controls is not a good practice to follow. Managing requirements, properly testing, and controlling the release process are all necessary aspects to mobile app development. There are definitely differences in expectations of mobile app users in the frequency of releases and bug fixes. But these can be addressed without the exclusion of best practices.
The IBM Mobile Development Lifecycle Solution (IMDLS) product offering was created to help solve this problem. By combining the IBM Worklight solution with the IBM Rational Application Lifecycle solution, the IMDLS brings control and management to your mobile application development efforts. IBM Worklight also provides a first class development environment with tools to allow you to create-once, deploy-everywhere to support the multiple mobile platforms that are out there.

Do a quick search, and you'll read days worth of poor reviews. Just purchase from this board and you''l be good to go.
i believe Cruzer is the man for Jango stuff!
Oh Heatshock where are you!
Stay away from SFP "big time" if you can!
avoid like the plague mate
check out this recent thread where i had a hissy fit - http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/showthread.php?t=33089
Cruzer - these kinda questions I dont mind, cos the guy is new to the boards. but you are right, every1 has a right to spend their money where ever they want. but it certainly wont stop me speakin out abt SFP.

I would say Cruzer is the man to see!
I know a guy caed Steelblitz (hes on here too, but more active on the clone boards now)
was doing some Jango prototypes. theres also bobamaker - but doesnt really make sense if ur arent British
I have a "friend" who bought clone boots off them because he got tired of having to remake his boots after each troop. Walmart's foam & glue option lasts only so long. He received said boots within four weeks and made some modifications. They have held together fine the past two years now. Lightweight and durable. However, I also have another "friend" who would curse the name, as the product was not up to par. So two different opinions from two very different people. May wanna stay local in your searches.

Fall Family Fun for Remainder of October
WASHINGTON COUNTY, MD - We're well into the brisk fall season and many look forward to the season festivities every year.
"I love going with my friends trick-or-treating," says Steven Tyndall.
"I like pumpkin carving because I can carve anything I want into the pumpkin," says Olivia Arnold.
"I like decorating them and making them have a face," says Vaughn Tyndall.
On Monday, several families took advantage of the fun offered at the Misty Meadow Farm Creamery in Smithsburg. The farm has a pumpkin patch for the kids and an 8-acre corn maze.
The Hagerstown and Washington County Convention and Visitors Bureau says the farm is just one of the local spots offering fall activities for families. They say in the next couple weeks, though, it may get a little spookier.
Williamsport will host a haunted walk on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Hagerstown is offering a Ghost Tour this Friday and Saturday around City Park and Hager House.
The CEO of the visitors bureau, Tom Riford, says the tales in Sharpsburg are especially spooky because of the Battle of Antietam and all of the casualties.
He says, "There's even a Howloween event for dogs wearing costumes at the Dog Park at the Fairgrounds in Hagerstown."
The Howloween Dog Costume Parade is at 11:30 a.m. Saturday at the Hagerstown Fairgrounds Park. From 12-2 p.m. enjoy dog-friendly vendors, giveaways, pet photography and more. Spectators are welcome.
This Saturday night, thousands will also flock to downtown Hagerstown for the annual Mummers Parade, the largest nighttime Halloween parade on the east coast.
"October is a month that our hotels are packed, our campgrounds are busy and it's great that our National Parks have reopened because it's all good for tourism here in Washington County," says Riford.
And if spooky isn't your cup of cider, then perhaps a glass of wine at Knob Ball for Wine Down Friday. The admission is $5.00 with light snacks.

Attempted Murder Suspect Takes His Own Life
Goleta Man Allegedly Stabs Business Partner
GOLETA, Calif. - Just after 4 a.m. Monday Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Deputies responded to a report of a stabbing that occurred in the 600 block of Mayrum Street in an unincorporated area of Santa Barbara.
When Sheriff's Deputies arrived, they discovered the victim, 56-year-old Rubel Trevino, had been stabbed several times. He was transported to a local hospital where he underwent surgery and is recovering from his injuries.
The victim was able to identify the suspect who had broken into his residence while he was sleeping and allegedly committed the stabbing as his business partner, 66-year-old Thomas Hutchison of Goleta.
The victim was able to get away from the suspect and run outside to call for help. The suspect then fled on foot. Approximately fifteen minutes later, Sheriff's Deputies responded to a report of a subject attempting to jump from the Winchester overpass in Goleta.
When Sheriff's Deputies arrived to make contact with the subject, he jumped from the overpass and landed below on the shoulder of the northbound 101 freeway.
Despite life-saving measures by paramedics, the subject was pronounced dead at the scene.
The decedent has been positively identified as Thomas Hutchison the same suspect who was involved in the stabbing prior to jumping off the overpass.23253402

Half of a powerful diptych by Vincent Valdez 00 IL showing two dying soldiers from different eras call out to each other across time.
Growing up as a Latino in the US, Vincent Valdez 00 IL has always been acutely aware of the stereotypes about young men of color in American society. For more than a decade, he has been exploring this idea through paintings showing the tragic masculine figure, the fighter, the gangster, the martyr. In The Strangest Fruit, his first solo show on the East Coast and one that closes on December 8 at Brown University's Bell Gallery, he presents a series of haunting depictions of male martyrs, referencing a little-known tragedy that befell Latinos in Texas.
"The only way out for men like these is death and redemption – salvation through suffering," says Valdez, who grew up in San Antonio, TX and now lives there in a 1928 fire station he restored as live/work space. "When I was a kid, I was obsessed with a dark, violent painting of Christ's crucifixion by my great-grandfather. The image has never left me."
The Strangest Fruit focuses on the horrors inflicted on Mexican-American farmers by the Texas Rangers in the early 20th century. According to Valdez, some 10,000 Latinos were lynched as part of an agricultural land grab. His work attempts to draw attention to this "erased American history" and to tie it to the violence and oppression that still define contemporary Latino culture. "The noose in America is still as present as ever," he says. "But now it's repackaged, reshaped and resold to the public via for-profit prison systems, racial profiling, drug wars, military wars, poverty."
The slightly larger than life-sized oil on canvas portraits presented in The Strangest Fruit depict men wearing contemporary clothing but physically ungrounded – their feet dangling in the air on a white background and their figures somehow strangely disembodied. No nooses are visible, no blood is apparent, no noticeable physical harm has been inflicted, yet it's clear that something terrible has just happened to these men. "This is probably the most minimal work I've produced to date," says Valdez. "I've swept away the background, the noose, the mob and attempted instead to provide hints about the context solely through the details – a dangling shoelace, a missing shoe."
The exhibition also includes a powerful diptych entitled I'm Your Brutha from a Different Mutha. Two pastel portraits show soldiers dying on separate battlefields, calling out to one another through time. Based on the canteen that lays by his side, the first appears to be a Civil War-era soldier, while the second looks more like a soldier from World War II.
"I was trying to create a universal soldier," says Valdez – someone "of any race, ethnicity or era. It's the never-ending recycling of warfare through the generations. How many times are we going to see these images? I was researching Italian opera posters from the 1700s and 1800s and was influenced by the idea of two figures singing to each other with their last dying breath."
When Valdez visited Providence this fall for the exhibition opening and a related symposium – and to speak at RISD –it was the first time he had returned to campus since graduating. He was especially pleased to reconnect with Illustration professors who helped shape his vision as a young artist, including Senior Critic Lenny Long and Professor Fritz Drury. "RISD has played such an important role in my life," he says, noting that his education was made possible by full scholarship support. "It was the most amazing, rigorous and challenging experience."
When asked whether he ever feels hemmed in as an artist by his heritage, Valdez simply says he's doing what comes naturally. "I paint the faces of young brown men because these are the faces I'm familiar with – the faces I grew up with," he says. "They're an extension of me, in some ways self-portraits. There is a risk of being pigeonholed, but if I don't paint these under-represented faces, who will?"

Rice is central to Asian cultures and farming systems, so important as sustenance that its name has come to mean "prana," or life breath, in India.
Before the Green Revolution of the sixties, more than 200,000 varieties of rice were grown in India alone. These indigenous strains had evolved to survive floods and droughts, to thrive in uplands and coastal ecosystems, and to offer enhanced taste and medicinal value. One of these is Basmati rice – centuries old and referred to in ancient texts, folklore and poetry.
Years of research and development by Indian and Pakistani farmers have resulted in a diverse range of Basmati with superior qualities that are a direct result of the farmers' innovation. The native-seeds conservation program, Navdanya Farm, nestled in India's Doon Valley between the Himalayan and Sewabh ranges and the Ganga and Yamuna Rivers, has saved, collected and distributed 14 of these strains. When the monsoons arrive, the farm becomes home to tremendous biodiversity that spans tropical and temperate ecosystems and includes over 250 varieties of rice, more than 50 varieties of pulses and oilseeds, and hundreds of medicinal plants.
In recent years, Basmati has become one of India's fastest-growing exports, with hundreds of thousands of tons of rice being exported annually. An estimated 80 percent of the country's Basmati is grown for this purpose. A recent U.S. patent, however, threatens to both monopolize the lucrative trade and deny the innovation of farmers. On September 2, 1997, Texas-based RiceTec, Inc. was granted patent number 5,663,484 for 20 claims ranging from seed to plant to grains to Basmati. This patent allowed the company to sell internationally under the Basmati name what it says are new rice lines and grains.
Patents are meant for novel industrial inventions. Basmati's aroma, which RiceTec is claiming is new, is not novel.
The RiceTec Basmati patent is indicative of the problems inherent in patenting living resources. Claiming invention for plant varieties denies the creativity of nature and farmers. If this claim to invention is upheld, Indian farmers who grow Basmati may lose income and Indian exporters of Basmati may be forced to pay royalties to RiceTec.
A group of nongovernmental organizations, including the Research Foundation for Science, Technology and Natural Resource Policy, launched a campaign in the late nineties against the Basmati patent. In 2000, RiceTec gave up four of the potential 20 claims and was denied another 13 claims in 2001.
While the campaign has been successful in helping roll back the Basmati patent, corporations like Syngenta and Monsanto are rushing ahead with mapping the rice genome and taking new patents out on rice. Take Golden Rice, for example. A genetically engineered rice that uses genes from flowers and bacteria to produce beta-carotene, Golden Rice is now being touted as a miracle for blindness caused by vitamin A deficiency.
One of the many problems with Golden Rice is that it is an inefficient source of vitamin A, providing only a minimal percentage of the recommended daily amount. Richer, safer sources of the vitamin exist in our biodiversity; greens like amaranth, coriander and drumstick are more productive vitamin A sources.
If the money spent to develop Golden Rice was spent on distributing vegetable seeds for vitamin-A-rich plants in the Third World, we could substantially diminish vitamin A deficiency while at the same time rejuvenating biodiversity. What the world needs to sustainably feed a growing population is biodiversity intensification, not chemical intensification or genetic engineering.
Real creativity is embodied in the diversity of species, in farming systems that conserve biodiversity, and in cultural diversity. Biodiversity-based systems are high-yielding, high-productivity systems. We need more biodiversity for ecological, economic, cultural, spiritual and aesthetic reasons. Biodiversity is the real indicator of abundance. Its erosion is the real measure of poverty.

"I stuck these onto plain cardboard tags and tied them around the favors with some pretty bakers string for my 1 year old's birthday party - they came out great!"
"The product looks great! Loved the designer review part of it and the customer service. Looking to have some cards ordered this time."
"We were looking for a sticker photo for my daughter's sorority recruitment cards. It needed to be small. The size was perfect, but I would've liked to have seen a few more designs. In particularly more "grown up" designs. The ones you currently offer have a baby/child theme."
"I removed the writing so my daughter could stick a photo of her much loved cat on her correspondence. They look beautiful."
"I purchase these adhesive gift tags so I don't need a card to attach cards to a children's birthday gift. they rarely care about the card and it often becomes detached. I made a set of these with a picture of my boys and their names. Everyone loves them! It's also helpful for the parents to know who the gift is from in large classes. I know I'm more likely to recognize a photo than a name."

LitWorld is a non-profit organization whose mission is "to use the power of story to cultivate literacy skills in the world's most vulnerable children through advocacy, education and innovation". On September 22nd, the International Day of the Girl, LitWorld invites everyone to partake in Stand Up for Girls: A Virtual Rally.
Two thirds of all the world's illiterate people are women. On September 22, we will stand up for girls and their right to go to school and to learn to read and write. Let us join together to launch a campaign to advocate for a transformative new era in girls' education.
Every girl has the right to a quality education that will ensure she has a lifelong way to protect herself, advocate for herself, learn what she wants to know and be who she wants to be. Every girl has the right to read and write words that will change her, and to write and tell stories to change the world.
Stand Up for Girls in 3 Easy Ways:
1) Spread the word about the event.
2) Stand Up. At noon your time on September 22, take ten seconds to physically stand up wherever you are (wear the Stand Up for Girls Badge!) to give recognition and awareness to the movement. Take a photo of yourself standing up for girls and post it on LitWorld's Facebook wall.
3) March. Organize a Stand Up for Girls March or event in your classroom, workplace or neighborhood on September 22 to bring awareness to your community about the urgency of providing girls with a quality education.
By standing up for all girls everywhere, we invest in our future.
The Stand Up for Girls Rally is cosponsored by The Millennium Cities Initiative and Connect to Learn, projects of the Earth Institute at Columbia University and Millennium Cities and Villages across Sub-Saharan Africa, Asia Initiatives with Ashita no Kai and Arpana in India, and The Children of Kibera Foundation in Kenya.

Cute pup!!
Is that a Basset-Beagle mix? Looks like a good rabbit dog.
Little story: I bought him for my girlfriend when we thought she was hired on full time at her job. Since her mom told her she could get a small dog. Well going to the pet store just to have something to do she fell in love with him. Two kids had him in the floor as soon as my wife (then girlfriend) walked around the corner he turned and ran. She played with him and petted him for an hour and a half. When we left he whimpered and whined. She went back the next day and wasnt paying attention to anyone until he saw her and he jumped in the changed and was barking until she came to him.
The mother that had the two kids was back in the store saying she almost has her husband talked into it and he would get off work at 5pm and see him and probably get him. Well it being 3pm I how to do something so I bought him. Well my mother in law wouldnt let me wife keep him with her so I kept him. She gets sad because he mom was real strict (like overly, overly strict) so she didnt get to see him that much and missed a big part of his puppy stage. He is healthy and finally starting to calm down some.
Enough yapping time for the pics.
A couple of weeks after we got him
Couple from about 8 months or so ago
Cute pup!!
Is that a Basset-Beagle mix? Looks like a good rabbit dog.
No full blooded basset. He would chase stuff if I let him but I dont think he would hunt. I think he would have so much fun he wouldnt want to come back
Good lookin dog there! He howl a lot yet?
He howls at sirens. He whimpers alittle when he wants attention. But he barks like crazy. Overall, he is a great dog.

|Good boy Titan!!!
|It makes me happy every single time.. never gets old.. and especially because these are new attitudes he's displayign so it's new to me.. I can't help but be excited with him. lol.
|I look forward to that every day when I get home. Sometimes he does it if I'm gone to the bathroom for 5 minutes. Not to that extreme mind you, but just the wiggle butt tells me what I want to know.
One excited puppy, one happy mama!
So.. I have had these random thoughts, on occassion, where I wonder if Titan is happy with us (not that he really knows different lol). Not looking for sympathy or a pity party at all, just a thought that crosses my mind form time to time. He's never been an extremely attention seeking dog, which his very different from what I was used to. He isn't vocal really at all.. ever.. unless someone is at the door (see obsession barking thread, about the only time that boy makes a peep) Anyways, lately he has been getting into a routine where in the mornings, he will come lay his head next to mine and ask to come up with us. We let him and he starts snuggling now! AND lately he has been getting very excited when I come home from work, which reassures me on that front, and I have just gotten plain used to his attitudes, LOL. "Fine you can pet me but then we play ball, mom!"
So on Sunday, my BF and I had to leave last minute for the night. Due to the fact we were leaving in late afternoon and coming back early morning, we decided Titan would be fine in the house for the duration, plus very last minute to find someone. He has a doggy door, doesn't dig or get into things outside, EVER nor does he chew things in the house. He had a plethera of chews to entertain and many full water bowls. tuckered him out and fed him right before we left (waiting obviously before feeding him after the tuckering). I wondered about him ALL night because I had never ever done that before and it was a little longer than normal. I thought he would be just as excited as he normally was when we get home from somewhere but I was completely taken aback by his reaction.
We pulled into the drive and he was in the yard.. ran up to the gate to check it out. But yelled to him "Weee're hooooome!" and he instantly ran into the house. Then when he normally greets us by the front door, this time he was standing just inside the doggy door by the back door.. When we came inside, he just started whining so excitedly! he wiggled all around just vocal as ever, yips and barks, and high pitched GSD sounds! Brought all his toys to us and just was so dang excited. I have NEVER seen him like this. Even when I got back from my deployment. He was happy then, but nothing compared to this.. It was so cute! made my heart melt and fall in love with him all over again.. and more or less reassured my insecurity of making him happy
No comments really NEEDED just wanted to share my happy moment.

A lot of us go through a world of emotions regarding all things Arsenal these days. But admit it; there is nothing you look forward to more than the next game. You put on the kit with pride, you raise your beer – or your coffee – wherever you may be. Or, like me on Saturday, you're lying in bed following the game on your phone at 4.45am.
You see, I have certain rituals when watching Arsenal. One of them is that watching a game live is very bad for me, and more importantly for Arsenal. Some games I do watch live, but most games I don't. Not because of the time difference, but because I want this team to win so badly that it hurts. Like 90 minutes of hurt. I follow it on my phone to lessen the anxiety, and watch it later on Arsenal Player or FSC replay.
Trust me, it's for the best.
This Saturday morning was no different. But … it was. It gave all of us a glimpse of the amazing past, the incredible present and a future that could leave us searching for the right word for ages. We saw three 'generations' of Arsenal players that will probably go down in history, at least we hope that's how the future – Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain – ends his career.
It was a welcome display for the players and no doubt our amazing manager. Moving forward we were magnificent. RVP, OX and Theo were driving, passing and playing as a team. I loved what Arteta and Sagna brought to the game. And Song was Song.
It was a great display. There truly is no better feeling when the well-oiled machine of Arsenal is cranking away. Confidence is beautiful to watch.
The final scoreline was right, but I don't think that it was one that any of us supporters could have predicted. It was an incredible display that showed everyone that Arsenal can still play. Did we have some silly moments? Of course we did, but in the end we played like Arsenal. And we celebrated like Arsenal.
I put my phone back down, went back to bed for an hour, then started my Saturday with walk for coffee. All smiles.

When educators in the Cypress-Fairbanks and Aldine areas learned they could earn a Master in Education degree from the University of St. Thomas without the drive into town, they applied in record numbers.
UST's School of Education has introduced a new Off-Campus Master's Program for the first time in spring 2010. In January, 11 cohort groups of 181 students began Master of Education (MEd) courses at two locations in the Cypress-Fairbanks area. This marks a significant increase to traditional on-campus MEd enrollment.
Courses are conveniently located for Cy-Fair and Aldine educators, held in some of the very schools where some cohort members work. The Cypress-Fairbanks program is held in Cy-Falls High School, 9811 Huffmeister Road. The Aldine classes are held at McArthur High School, 4400 Aldine Mail Road.
"This program gives the University of St. Thomas more exposure and a stronger presence in the growing suburban areas of Houston," LeBlanc said. "Cy-Fair educators who work full-time would have to commute for over an hour in rush-hour traffic to attend on-campus UST evening classes. This program makes a St. Thomas education convenient for those students who are interested in obtaining a private university education in their own community."
The Off-Campus MEd Program offers six different master's degree concentrations including educational leadership, diagnostician, reading, bilingual/dual language, exceptionality/special education and curriculum and instruction.
Students commit to attend class one night per week and finish the program in about two years. Each cohort's classes are scheduled the same night of the week for the duration of the program. Compressed track classes are held for seven weeks each, enabling students to take two classes per semester, one class at a time.
"This is exactly the same master's degree program that any student would complete on campus, but we have taken it to a different geographic location and offer the classes in a compressed track format," LeBlanc said. "I think the program has become successful from the onset because we offer a quality, private, liberal arts graduate program at a convenient location. Students appreciate the predictable night for class, because they can build a consistent time commitment into their daily life.
"Balancing busy schedules, full-time jobs and family commitments, teachers expressed a preference for taking one course at a time," said LeBlanc. "With compressed track classes, students only deal with one syllabus at a time, and do not have overlapping midterms and projects."
Rona Jackson is a special needs teacher for kindergarten through fourth-grade at Carmichael Elementary School in Aldine ISD. She is a member of one of the Aldine Educational Leadership cohorts.
"I enrolled in the program for career advancement and to fulfill my leadership potential as an educator," Jackson said.
Amy Casey, a sixth-grade teacher at Aragon Middle School in Cy-Fair ISD, is part of one of the Cy-Fair Educational Leadership cohorts. She was attracted to the convenience of the program, as well as the exemption from taking the GRE.
"I considered MEd programs from other universities, but this program came to me, and carried the name recognition of a major university people know and respect," Casey said. "My class is less than 10 minutes away from my school, and the tuition was manageable for me without taking out loans. I only have class on Tuesday nights, and I have the rest of the week to spread out my class assignments."
The University is currently exploring additional sites around the Houston area for future off-campus programs. For more information contact Dr. Robert LeBlanc at 713-525-3548 or visit www.stthom.edu/education

Invasive Species Management
Georgia Invasive Species Strategy(Adobe Acrobat Required)
The variety of native species found in Georgia is in part a reflection of the range of landscapes that make up the state. From the mixed forests and woodlands of the north Georgia mountains, to the low rolling hills of Central Georgia, to the swampy lowland, marshes and barrier islands of the coast, the state's various ecosystems make Georgia the sixth most biologically diverse state in the Union.
Existing along with all these native species, however, are many nonnative species that have been introduced into the state. While many of these species are relatively benign, a few of them cause significant negative impacts. Invasive species are plants and animals that have been introduced, either intentionally or accidentally, into areas outside their natural ranges and cause economic or environmental harm. These species are capable of having a negative effect on Georgia's economy, natural environment, and human and animal health.
In response to this challenge, the Georgia Invasive Species Advisory Committee (Committee), coordinated by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, developed the Georgia Invasive Species Strategy to describe the nature and extent of the state's invasive species problem and propose specific management actions to minimize negative impacts.
The Committee identified needs and existing tools for responding to invasive species problems within the state. As part of this process, groups on the committee identified 83 invasive or potentially invasive plant species, 111 animal species and 30 disease-causing organisms. Based on this information, the Committee set goals and objectives and proposed strategies for action.
The goal of this effort is to prevent and control the introduction of invasive species into Georgia and minimize the further spread and impacts of existing invasive species populations on native species, environmental quality, human health, and the economy.

Home > News & Events > News > Press Releases > Rappaport Institute Releases Study on Gambling in Massachusetts
Cambridge, MA. — Allowing a few large casinos to operate in southeastern and/or western Massachusetts would produce some modest benefits in those regions, create some modest problems, and have surprisingly little impact in a host of other areas according to "Betting on the Future: The Economic Impacts of Legalized Gambling," a study released today by the Rappaport Institute at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government.
The study's authors, Rappaport Institute assistant director Phineas Baxandall and Bruce Sacerdote, an associate professor of economics at Dartmouth College, reached these conclusions after comparing the experience of counties in the United States that house casinos with those that do not. They focused especially on more populous counties, similar to those in Massachusetts, and larger casinos, such as those proposed for Massachusetts. They found that:
The population of casino counties grew 5 percent faster than the population of non-casino counties while the number of jobs in all casino counties grew 6.7 percent faster than in non-casino counties. In more populous casino counties, however, population increased 8 percent faster than similar non-casino counties, while jobs in populous casino counties increased only 5.7 percent faster than in similar non-casino counties. Similarly, median house prices in all casino counties rose about $6,000 more than in non-casino counties. This effect, however, seems to have been concentrated in sparsely populated rural counties.
Personal bankruptcy rates in all counties with casinos rose by about 10 percent and by 15 percent in more populous counties with casinos. Total reported crimes also increased slightly in casino counties, but only because of population increases associated with casinos. The crime rate (the number of crimes per 1,000 residents) actually declined.
Local and county governments in areas where casinos opened did not see their revenues or their spending rise any faster than in similar non-casino areas. Given that population increased faster in areas with casinos, this means that per-capita public-sector spending and revenues in casino counties rose more slowly than in similar non-casino counties.
"Casino gambling is not a trivial issue, but employment, finances and crime are insufficient rationales for deciding whether to deny or allow casinos in Massachusetts," Baxandall said. "Policymakers, therefore, must consider other issues when deciding whether to allow casino gambling in the state."
The report is available on the Rappaport Institute website.
