You're Awesome, Buffalo!
"I don't know if you guys have been to the hotels in Buffalo, but they're not the nicest places in the world."- Tom Brady
This is the quote that has exploded all over my Twitter and Facebook like Spaghetti sauce in a microwave.
Buffalo is mad. Actually, some of Buffalo is mad. Most of the rest of Buffalo is mad at the people who are mad because it makes our city come
Training Camp Fantasy Football = Fun
It's the beginning of Bills Training Camp and the beginning of camp means Training Camp Fantasy Football.
Bachelorette Finale Recao- What's Best for Ricki
When I was 12, I went to the movies with my Dad to see Kevin Costner's epic 'Dances with Wolves'. I got an Olympic swimming pool-sized Mountain Dew. By the time Lieutenant Dunbar was speaking Sioux, I had to pee like there were greyhounds in my bladder. It was the most uncomfortable 3 hours of my life. Until Sunday night's Bachelorette finale.
Bauch: Cartwheels and Tutus on the Pitch
The mid-fielder is adjusting a pair of shorts that hang to his ankles. The right defender is practicing his cartwheels and improving with each attempt. The left defender is wearing a tutu. The goal keeper is using the net to support herself as she talks with some kids walking past the field behind her goal.
Bachelorette Recap- The Men Tell All We Can Take
The worst week of the worst season of the worst show occurred last night. That's a lot of 'worsts'. Emily Maynard has narrowed down her blood-thirsty hunt for love down to 2 boyfriends; Jef with 1 'f' and Arie. Arie will win the Game show next week but, first, ABC brings back all of Emily's rejected boyfriends so they can tell all.
Bachelorette Recap- The Heart-Break of Dumping 1-of-3 Boyfriends
Tonight's episode of the Bachelorette wasn't funny. It was very serious and very scary. There was a helicopter followed by more helicopters, boats, small planes, tears and buckets and buckets of tears.
Bachelorette Recap- On a Scale of 1-to-Polish... We're Polish!
I know you guys have been messing around on these recaps all season but that bleep ends now. We're in serious mode. There are only 3 more episodes of the Bachelorette before Arie wins and this week is the 'hometown dates' episode.
Emily Maynard has narrowed down her second televised search for love down to 4 guys, Arie (wins the show), Psycho Chris (psycho), Jef with 1
Bachelorette Recap- Inches Away From the Ceiling of Hell
My friend Kevin Carlin has a joke about emergency rooms. They ask you to gauge your pain from 1-to-10 but it's impossible to do. If you're on fire, that's a '10' right? But what if a Wolverine bites you while you're on fire? There's always room for more pain. That's what the Bachelorette is. It's an emergency room full of immeasurable pain.
Ten Thousand Goals
Every time the Buffalo Sabres score a goal it makes me happy. Whether the team is tied 0-0 in the 4th overtime of a playoff game against the New Jersey Devils or trailing the Ottawa Senators 5-to-1 late in the third period, I get a jolt of joy. Of course, the level of excitement varies, but I have never not been happy to see the Sabres score a goal.

Syracuse, NY
Overview of Syracuse
The economic and educational hub of the Central New York region, the city of Syracuse is located halfway between the state's east and west borders. With 145,216 residents as of 2010, it has remained an influential municipality in the Empire State and is home to a major university and hospitals that both serve and employ a large number of people in the area.
Listed on Forbes Magazine's 2010 list of the Top 10 Places to Raise a Family, the city has a balance of college culture and a small-town feel. People looking for Syracuse apartments for rent can choose from the more suburban and removed parts of the metropolis or get in the thick of things with students near the downtown area.
Living in Syracuse, NY
The region was settled in the mid 1600s, but it really took off in the mid 19th century, as the opening of the Erie Canal in 1825 and the incorporation of Syracuse in 1847 helped to establish it as a trading outpost and manufacturing center. The metropolis grew out of this industrial background, and by 1900 it was manufacturing 90 percent of the garment pressing machines in the country.
Syracuse University was founded in 1870 and it has had a significant impact on the region, as students from all over come to the city in order to pursue higher education and bring business to many of the small stores located in the downtown area.
Syracuse Work and Study
The university is the second largest employer in the city, and many residents work as faculty members or in the numerous administrative positions at the school. Several hospitals and health centers also provide job opportunities to eligible candidates in the area, and Lockheed-Martin has more than 2,000 employees on its staff in the metropolis.
Syracuse University is the major academic institution in the region, and people from all over the state come to enjoy some of the school's storied sports teams and its sprawling campus. With more than 20,000 students roaming the streets of the downtown area, it is hard to ignore the impact of college life on the city.
More established people looking for Syracuse apartments may want to avoid living in the areas that are dominated by the student body, but recent graduates and young professionals may prefer to find a residence there.
Rentals in Syracuse, NY and Cost of Living
Though much of the housing in the area surrounding the university is where undergraduates reside during their college years, there are spots on the fringes that can accommodate families and young couples.
The median gross rent in Syracuse was $662 a month, according to the 2010 Census.
Syracuse Attractions and Special Events
The residents of Syracuse can choose from numerous university-related activities for entertainment, as famous musicians and comedians frequently visit the school throughout the year. Families may look to other activities in the downtown area, and the many sprawling fields and recreation spaces earned the city a spot on the National Geographic Green Guide's Top 20 Green Cities list.
Syracuse students also participate in a number of community service events, working closely with residents to help keep the city clean and provide a safe and friendly atmosphere for families and visitors. These two groups also mingle at the city's annual State Fair, which is the longest running event of its kind in the country. It started in 1848 and is held each year at Archbold Stadium.
With more than $1.4 billion on the books to be invested in the city in the coming years, further growth and development are likely.

Recent FIS NewsBelow you will find a listing of recent FIS News Find your newsTotal of nine new FIS medal events at Sochi 2014 The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has made the final decision on the program of the Olympic Winter Games 2014 in Sochi (RUS). In Durban today, the IOC Executive Board confirmed the additional inclusion of Freestyle Skiing slopestyle (men and ladies) and Snowboard slopestyle (men and ladies), as well as Snowboard parallel slalom as events on the Sochi 2014 program. Regrettably the Alpine nations' team parallel competition was not approved for inclusion for Sochi 2014. The FIS disciplines have featured prominently in the expansion of the Olympic Winter Program, with the first additions announced in April 2011 when six new events were included for Sochi 2014: Freestyle Ski halfpipe (men and ladies) and ladies' Ski Jumping, as well as Biathlon mixed relay, Figure Skating team event and Luge team relay. At that time the IOC Executive Board decided that five other events - the Alpine nations team parallel competition, Freestyle Ski slopestyle and Snowboard slopestyle (men and ladies) - were still subject to a further feasibility study. "FIS is delighted about the IOC's decision to include both Freestyle Ski and Snowboard slopestyle events to the Sochi 2014 program following the addition of the ladies' Ski Jumping and Freestyle Ski halfpipe. This is an important statement about the relevance of the Olympic Winter Games for the youth given the appeal of slopestyle to younger audiences," said FIS President Gian Franco Kasper. "It is nevertheless disappointing that the Alpine nations team event will have to wait for its debut, since it has proven to be a true highlight at our FIS World Championships and we are convinced it will be well received at the Youth Olympic Games in Innsbruck." With the addition of a total of 12 new events, the Sochi 2014 Games will celebrate 98 Olympic champions and award a total of 294 Olympic medals. Exactly 50% of those (49) will be in the six FIS disciplines. At Vancouver 2010, 86 events were on the Olympic program, 40 of those in the FIS disciplines. The decision to include the new events on the program of the Olympic Winter Games was based on a report presented by the Olympic Program Commission to the IOC Executive Board in Acapulco in October 2010. The Commission studied the proposal of the individual International Sports Federations and compiled a detailed analysis of all candidate events at their respective world championships last winter. The key positive factors included whether the changes would increase universality, gender equity and youth appeal, and in general add value to the Games. Other considerations included the cost of infrastructure, logistics and operations and the impact on the overall quota and the number of events. |

Faith in Fiction: Our Inspirational Fiction Collection
Spring is upon us and for many that means it is time for spring cleaning. As for me, I have been busy spring cleaning the Inspirational Fiction collection. Our Inspirational Fiction collection is a collection of approximately 700 books that weave religious ideas and faith into the characters and storylines. The majority of the collection focuses on the Protestant Christian and Amish faiths. This is due to the fact that the majority of religious fiction available focuses on these two faiths. Inspirational Fiction is often referred to as Christian Fiction because of this. However, there are a few authors available that focus on Catholicism, Mormonism, or other religions and the library does have some of these as well. Some of the books found in the Inspirational Fiction collection are pronounced in their incorporation of religious beliefs into the stories while others choose to weave many of the beliefs and tenants of a particular faith subtly throughout the entire story. As a whole, Inspirational Fiction is known for being a "gentler" read in that there is a lack of profanity, explicit sex, or explicit violence.
Those familiar with Inspirational Fiction know that historical romances are the cornerstone of this genre. However, over the years Inspirational Fiction has grown to incorporate modern day stories, mysteries, thrillers and even some vampire novels! While reviewing our current collection I found many Inspirational Fiction authors had been located elsewhere in the library so I moved all of them into the Inspirational Fiction collection so that everything is now housed together. Hopefully when you browse our collection now you will discover new authors and new books to read!
Because Inspirational Fiction is a popular collection for us at the library, I have decided to host a six book reading discussion series dedicated exclusively to Inspirational Fiction. This series will start on Tuesday, July 10 and end on September 18. Meetings will be on alternating Tuesday evenings at 7:00pm in the Genealogy Room and will last between 1 hour and 1 hour 30 minutes. Copies of each book will be provided by the library for all participants to check out. Participants will have two weeks to read each book before the group meets to talk about it. It can be both fun and interesting to discuss a book as a group and find out what others think about it. Plus there will always be snacks! You are not required to read every book or to attend every meeting in order to participate, but you'll want to! Registration for this series has begun and I encourage you to stop by the library or call us and register if you are interested so the library can get an accurate count of how many books we need to order. I have not yet finalized all six books for this series but my goal is to introduce the participants to new authors as well as books that forever changed the face of Christian publishing. You won't want to miss it!

Lol for those of you who want a good laugh at the expense of our lovable, yet immature QB.
Here is another piece of Jay Cutler folk lore that tickles my funny bone:
Its been a while since weve run an anonymous account about a run-in with an NFL player, but this is too good to pass up.
Friend is in a bar in Chicago during the off-season. He goes to the bathroom and sees Jay Cutler, hat on backwards, taking a piss at the urinal. So the guy starts going to the bathroom and says, Hey, Im a huge fan, also went to Vanderbilt
Jay throws his head back, still pissing, eyes half-closed because hes drunk, interrupts him with, DOOOONNNNTTTTTT CAAAAAARRRREEEEEE.
So now I cant stop yelling, DOOOOONNNNTTTTT CAAAARRRREEEEE.

Of all the Christmas-time candies, I've got a super love affair with homemade fudge. It's one of those sweets I start thinking about when planning my trip down South to my grandmother's for the holidays.
My grandmother always has enough fudge for the entire family to gorge themselves, if not the entire neighborhood. Recycled cookie cans are filled, crystal candy dishes and wherever else a sweet tooth might possibly recline during the days surrounding Christmas.
This year, I wanted to share that glorious gooey chocolate treat with my friends before heading home for the holidays – and my grandmother's recipe was the one I chose to share.
Fabulously Flawless Fudge
Line and 8- or 9-inch pan with parchment or foil.
Melt your chocolate chips with sweetened condensed milk and salt in heavy saucepan.
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla, shot of whiskey or other liqueurs of your choice or even pecans or walnuts.
I used an awesome coffee liqueur I got at the Indy Food Swap from @TheKayGee.
Spread evenly in prepared pan and chill for two hours or until firm.
Remove from pan by lifting edges of your parchment or foil.
Peel away the paper and cut into squares.
Store in an airtight container

Putting it all together: Harmony School of Innovation to host science fair, blood drive on Dec. 15
Photo courtesy of Harmony School of Innovation -- The hallways of Harmony School of Innovation are transformed into a parade of student exhibits at the school's annual science fair, which will be held on Dec. 15.
By Jared Watson, firstname.lastname@example.com
The culmination of months of research for Harmony School of Innovation students will take place at the schools annual science fair, held this year on Dec. 15.
The fair will feature 300 student-produced exhibits, displayed across almost the entire campus. Harmony Assistant Principal of Operations and Finance Sara Strain said the visual effect is dramatic.
"Our whole hallway and whole cafeteria are transformed into almost like a museum where judges will walk exhibit by exhibit," Strain said.
"These judges are members of our community, and they interview students to complete a scorecard, and we present prizes at the end," Strain said. "The top winners can then go on to regional, state and national science fairs."
Strain said Harmony students have performed very well in past fairs.
"We've had several students reach the regional, state and national level with their productions," Strain said.
The science fair is the biggest event of the year for Harmony, and student participation is a significant part of the middle school curriculum.
"Every middle school student is required to produce a science fair project," Strain said. "Students are free to choose their topic that they want to do. It's all up to them. There are deadlines, and each part is an assignment, just like school, but it is to help them explore on their own a little bit to where they're not feeling as pushed."
Strain said the projects she has seen students create this year and in previous years have been as varied as they have been astounding.
"I had a student produce a full-scale wind tunnel," Strain said. "We have students in our bio-med program that have software and equipment to do EKG and blood pressure readings. We've had students do simple projects like testing sugar content in lemonade and how that affects your brain, or testing the absorbency of a diaper and what makes a diaper more or less absorbent. We have a student doing the light spectrum using dry ice, so she's going to create different-colored fogs."
Though the students will be displaying their projects on Dec. 15, Strain said the process of creating the projects began months ago, and is a collaborative effort, with all the teachers in the school playing a role.
"From an academic standpoint, it is cross-curricular," Strain said. "Their English teacher looks at their research paper, their math teacher looks at their research data and their graphs, and then of course their science teacher spearheads the project."
Harmony Principal Addie Murati said the fair also gives students a chance to work on their public speaking skills.
"They have to present their project in front of a group of judges, and that can be difficult if you're doing it for the first time," Murati said. "Students can be nervous. So we want them to get those skills as well, so they're ready for the work force or college applications, interviews and all that."
Harmony School of Innovation is a certified Texas Science, Technology, Engineering and Math, or T-STEM, institution, one of 65 in the state of Texas. Dean of Academics for grades 6 through 11 Scott Coleman said the cross-curricular nature of the science fair is a core aspect of what Harmony and T-STEM is all about.
"The whole T-STEM concept is a little hard to understand when you're experiencing it for the first time," Coleman said. "People say 'Well, is it a certain class that they take, or is it kind of a pre-major in high school?' It's a lot bigger than that. It's basically integrating technology into everything. So even our English classes and our social studies classes are encouraged to use technology."
In addition to the science fair projects, students, teachers, judges and visitors will all be given the opportunity to help the Carrollton community by donating blood.
"We've had some of our bio-med students do internships at Baylor Hospital, so through our partnership with them, we thought it would be a good way to give back," Strain said. "Because it's such a big public event, we literally have 300 science fair projects, times three for their parents, about 60 judges and about 100 volunteers here throughout the day. So that's a lot of people who could really help the community by donating blood."
The Harmony School of Innovation's Science Fair will be held on Saturday, Dec 15 from 9 a.m. -- 2 p.m. To learn more about the Fair and the Harmony Public Schools system, visit www.harmonytx.org

If (RG) Chance Warmack out of Alabama falls to the bolts at 11, we MUST snag this mauler, and pick up Big Lazy's insurance in the 2nd round by drafting (LT) DJ FLUKER out of Alabama...in fact, lets just do a platoon draft of Bama's O-line Anyone hear the latest on the possibility of Q Jammer sliding over to Safety this year? ROLL TIDE!!!!
I don't think drafting a guard at 11 is a good call. Even if he ends up being the greatest guard to ever play, that's not a huge talent/capabilities difference from an above average guard, which you can find plenty of on day 2 and even 3.
^ To be honest, in a perfect world, the Eagles would cut Vick, who'd land in KC so they use #1 on Joeckel, then cut Brandon Albert, who comes here, then we draft Warmack at #11, and completely upgrade the left side. Far fetched, yes. But then again, I didn't think we'd get Telesco, McCoy and Wiz... Only issue if this pipe dream actually happened would be Gaither, would the financial situation prevent us from affording Albert, or would the team take the unlikely chance on using Gaither at RT?
In a perfect world, we draft Fisher at 11 and he turns out to be a top 5 LT for the next 11 years, and we get the first 5 on a poverty rookie contract.
I have the same feeling about Warmack I had last year with DeCastro. Yeah the guy is very good, but he plays a position that is not worth taking where we sit....unless the first 10 picks go the worst way possible where no QBs or WRs or 4-3 DTs are taken and all the good players we could use are gone including Fisher.....and still I would rather trade back before taking him. But as it is, I think as many as 4 QBs could go in the top 10 (as unworthy as they all are) and Tebasco will probably have a tough choice to make between Fisher and a guy who fell unexpectedly like Milliner or Jones. So Warmack is not on my radar at 11.
I had Warmack above DeCastro since mid season last year. The thing that i look at and am impressed with from Warmack, is that the dude is just absolutely instant run game, just right away, as soon as you plug him in, you have a solid run game. I think the G position is severely underrated, and there's a ton of people that have Warmack as the #1 player in the entire draft, and honestly i have him top 5. I'm also really high on Eric Fisher though, so i'm not sure about the decision though. I would go with Fisher more because of the players that you can get later in the draft at LT rather than OG (ie. Long/Pugh/Johnson vs Frederick/Warford/Jones). But they are my 1 and 2 options, clearly.
Say no to Fluker, especially if we already picked a OG, cuz thats where he should play in the NFL, his feet are beyond awful...
Random question; can Warmack play LG? If so could we seriously consider bringing both Fluker/Warmack in to play guard together?
Do we have coaches with the knowledge to run a guard-based line scheme? If the answer is no, then that sounds like murder for Rivers. I don't like it. Get the premium position players with premium picks and get the non-premium position players with non-premium picks.
How I expect the first 10 picks to go.... 1. KC - Geno Smith 2. JAX - Damontre Moore 3. OAK - Bjoern Wener 4. PHI - Luke Joeckel 5. DET - Dee Milliner 6. BUF (tradew/Cleveland) - Mike Glennon 7. ARI - Tyler Wilson 8. CLE (trade w/Buffalo) - Jarvis Jones 9. NYJ - Kiki Mingo 10. TEN - Chance Warmack: I think there is a scary chance that Miami trades here and takes Eric Fisher, because what TEN needs is a CB, DE, or OG to replace Hutch and there are no great fits here other than Warmack...who I doubt Tebasco takes. They could easily slide back to 12 and get Warmack or Banks anyway. If it goes this way I don't think the choice is tough, its gotta be Fisher.
ESPN's Adam Schefter predicted on Sunday Countdown that USC's Matt Barkley will be the first quarterback selected in April's draft. Raiders GM Reggie McKenzie considers Notre Dame ILB Manti Te'o a first-round talent, but he "wants to see how the current story surrounding Te'o unfolds before making" any judgments.
I hope the Raiders take him at 3, that would be awesome for our needs at 11. Also a lot can and does change over the next 3 months.
I see KC either trading back or going with Star Lotulelei. Or if dumb enough trading for Alex Smith Philly is more likely to grab Geno Smith. In reality their O line is a lot better than what it showed last year, Jason Peters was hurt who is one of the better LT's in the league. Also as soon as Jason Kelce went down so did the rest of the line. Arizona may move up if Joeckel is still there. I can actually see them make a push for the 1st overall pick, would actually be funny if they were able to sell Kolb back to Reid as part of the deal I still see us able to grab Fisher at 11 unless Miami or Chicago manage to leap frog us.
I still dont get the Lotulelei to KC talk. Like really, their D is alright, and they have spend 3 first round picks on the DL in the last 5 years, with Dorsey, Tyson jackson and Poe, why would they take another NT, when they have 2 solid starting DT's already in Poe/Dorsey, and Jackson with the ability to play the 3T. They have to take a QB, plain and simple. This Joeckel to Philly is also stupid to me. They now run a ZBS, and they have Jason Peters coming back, so they dont have the immediate need for a OT. And this may seem funny, but Chip Kelly running the ZBS, could very possibly try to grab Kyle Long in the 2nd round, with familiarity to scheme, and apparently Chip and Long are good friends, or close as a player coach will be, and they have the ability to sit him or play him at RT for a year or two and develop him for LT. He's seriously a perfect fit for them. I could see Joeckel dropping until either someone is willing to trade up for him, or until 7, since many teams already have their LT, or need something horribly bad. Veldheer has been very good for the Raiders, and their need for any type of pass rush is really bad, their playing with a jumbo, basically 34 DE at LE, and Slausehey (how however the hell you spell it), as their best pass rusher, which is awful. Jax at 2 has a top 5-10 LT in Monroe, Det just drafted Reiff to be their future LT, and Backus finally started playing decent last year IIRC (or he got replaced at LT), and their D has been so bad it doesn't really matter. I could seriously see him dropping to Arizona. This may be because i dont think he's in any means special at LT, but i think he's gonna be solid. His athleticism is top notch, but he's never going to be a great run blocker. I think he'll be a consistent top 10 OT, but he's not the Jake Long's/Joe Thomas's of the world. He's more in the Ryan Clady group. And top 10, but not top 3-5 is more where he belongs to me. But that would really help us out in terms of not needing to worry about Arizona taking Fisher at 7. Now we just need to make sure nobody jumps us for him.
I agree with everything you say, but I was just suggesting Lotulelei because Reid may switch their 3-4 to a 4-3 and with Dorsey not guaranteed to return FA/injury concerns and Tyson Jackson, They've been really disappointed with him and are expected to release him after already asking him last year to restructure his contract. Star would make almost more sense in a need plus value pick than any QB in this draft. Andy Reid is also more known to draft a DT in the 1st than any other position aside from his first year in Philly taking a guy named McNaab. I believe every pick except the first (although Buffalo has a lot of ??? marks as well) can almost certainly be predicted where mock after mock every pick 2-10 looks the same, but just like years past anything is possible. Last year if you were to tell me 7 or so teams traded up in the first round last year and one of those teams were the Patriots I would have called you B.S.
Agree with the Lotulelei part spot on. Jason Peters has missed basically the last 2 years because of torn ACLs (not sure if same one or not) and he's paid as *** load. I think its very likely they cut him. I also would not trade up more than 1 spot for him.
....he started 14 games in '11...How is that missing most of the year? And he never tore his ACL IIRC he Ruptured his Achilles tendon at the end of last year, and he re-agrivated it right before the season. He is due 10 mil this year in the offseason, which isn't huge money for a LT, let alone for one who was top 3 in the NFL before the injury. This isn't something you blow up as a new HC, this is something you have to keep steady. No chance they take a top 5 OT. Talking to my friend who's a Eagles fan today, he said that their likely switching to a 34 Defense, so Dion Jordan, Werner, and maybe even Moore (despite how overrated i think he is) could very well be options there, depending on who is takin by Oak/Jax, and honestly, if Lotulelei falls, there's no way they pass on him IMO. that is IF they are in fact switching to the 34, as it seems they are (all their interviews for DC have been for 34 guys)
Fair enough. But paying him $10.6M in 2013 makes him the 5th highest paid OT in the league, and consider that they're also paying Demetress Bell another $9.6M....6th highest in the league. I don't think he's exactly "safe" considering his injury history. It would be interesting seeing them go to 3-4. I've always thought Trent Cole was a better fit for 3-4, I would bet good money he leads the NFL in sacks next year.

Dominique Foxworth, president of the NFL players association, said Tuesday that trust issues have driven a significant divide between the league's players and commissioner Roger Goodell. That includes any advancement in stalled talks to implement human growth hormone testing. "They don't trust anybody on Park Avenue," Foxworth said in reference to the NFL's administrative offices in New York City. Goodell said at the Super Bowl in New Orleans earlier this month that he was hopeful HGH testing would be established before the start of the 2013 season. Foxworth doubts the widening bridge between players and NFL braintrust can be crossed in a timely fashion and said outside neutralities are necessary. "Some neutral arbitration is needed," he said. The deterioration of trust, Foxworth claimed, goes back to the bounty issue with the Saints last season. He said last month that he takes responsibility as the players' voice to help rebuild a relationship with Goodell, but it won't come quickly or easily. "It's set us back a bit as far as trust is concerned," he said. "It's part of my responsibility to try to rebuild that. It helps us operate a little better and helps things go smoothly if they're willing to cooperate with some checks and balances." NFL spokesman Greg Aiello responded immediately to Foxworth's claim that the league didn't want an appeals process. Aiello said that was simply untrue. According to the league in discussions on the issue in New Orleans, a third-party appeals panel would be used in HGH case appeals.

Both trick-or-treaters and motorists can do their part to make sure everyone gets home safe on Halloween night on Georgia. Why extra caution when the ghosts and goblins aren't even real? Because the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that between 4PM and 10PM on Halloween, the number of child fatalities occurring in pedestrian or vehicle incidents more than doubles.
"It's going to be dark and it's going to be cold so kids could be moving fast," said GOHS Director Harris Blackwood. "Not only do we want motorists to watch out for every young princess and pirate darting to the next house for candy, but we also want trick-or-treaters and their parents to take precautions as well."
The good news is that Safe Kids has a handful of simple steps that both pedestrians and motorists can take to stay safe on Halloween:
·Children under 12 should trick-or-teat and cross the streets with an adult.
·Always walk on sidewalks or paths. If there are no sidewalks, walk facing traffic as far to the left as possible.
·Cross the street at corners, using traffic signals and crosswalks. Parents should remind children to watch for cars that are turning or backing up.
·Look left, right and left again when crossing and keep looking as you cross. Walk, don't run, across the street.
·Slow down and be especially alert in residential neighborhoods. Children are excited on Halloween and may move in unpredictable ways.
·Anticipate heavy pedestrian traffic and turn your headlights on earlier in the day so you can spot children from greater distances.
·Remember costumes can limit children's visibility and they may not be able to see your vehicle.
·Reduce any distractions inside your car so you can concentrate on the road and your surroundings.
Nationwide, Halloween is also a particularly deadly night due to the high number of drunk drivers on the roads. In 2010, 41 percent of all highway fatalities across the nation involved a driver a BAC of .08 or higher.

Dunkin' Donuts Restaurant Review: You can still find good, strong coffee and jelly-filled donuts at this popular, omnipresent chain, but Dunkin' Donuts keeps up with the times by offering reduced-fat blueberry muffins and croissants for the carb-conscious, too. There are simple savory breakfast and lunch dishes, including sandwiches and wraps. The beverage line-up, once limited to a few flavored coffees, now rivals competing coffee chains' menus with iced coffees, lattes, vanilla chai and more. Whether you want to surprise the kids with a box of Munchkins (donut holes) or warm up your audience at a business meeting with a Box o' Joe, a DD counter or drive-through is the way to go. Other locations. |

Comments On Apr 19, 2013:Excellent for the price. Yeah, you can't see out of it like a street bike mirror but you can see well enough to know if someone's behind you. For the price you can't go wrong.

Comments On Mar 17, 2013:I bought the right and left hand tusk Mirrors and all there good for is just making your bike street legal. All you will be able to see is your elbows.

Comments On Mar 06, 2013:The mirror will make you legal, at least in NV, but that's about all it's good for. Totally unusable in any functional sense. Too small, bad viewing angle and options, and way, way too much vibration, if you can get it to stay in place.

Comments On Feb 18, 2013:I didn't have enough room to mount these on my bars since they are cut shorter, so modified it a bit with the heat gun and mounted them on my bark busters. Though my state only requires one mirror to be street legal, I decided to get a second one cause the first one turned out so good.

Comments On Jan 25, 2013:Bought two of these for wifes bike and mine, works good enough to be street legal. When the trail hits the pavement and picks up some miles down the road, like in Colorado. It's nice not to worry about the police pulling you over.
Keep in mind I don't use this for anything else but to be legal.

Comments On Sep 11, 2012:This mirror is well made and folds easily while still staying in place on the road on my DRZ 250 2001 Suzuki. The drawbacks are: 1. It conveniently has one screw to hold the two halves together but the screw needs to be a Allen head bolt of about 4mm so that in a season it won't rust and become another Phillips head screw that can't be removed. 2. It needs to be CONVEX glass. You really can't see much in the flat mirror provided. I broke out the glass (very tough!) as soon as I got it and used GOOP to glue on a slightly larger Walmart plastic convex mirror to the body of the Tusk mirror. I can now see past my elbow and am much more likely to see a car trying to pass me.

Comments On Aug 19, 2012:The mounts are cheap flexible plastic that you can't get tight. Just horrible. Don't waste your money. Also, they are so short that you'll never see past your shoulders on a dual purpose type bike. The only possible solution is to have them hand under the bars which I don't like. Mine will go into a junk box and probably never see the light of day again.

Comments On Aug 14, 2012:This mirror moves around and vibrates so much it is useless. It will get your bike passed for plates, but not good for much else. I am looking for a better mirror. I may have to use the type the KTM guys have.

Comments On Jun 05, 2012:This is a good mirror for dual sport. I can fold it quickly out of the way the second I hit the dirt, and back out if i'm getting pulled over. Mounts great on my Renthal bars.

"Relative demand for highly educated workers is increasing," said Jonathan Rothwell, senior research associate at the Brookings Institution. "There's a long-run shift in the economy toward more professional occupations, and it's mostly at the expense of blue collar occupations."
Health care and professional services have been some of the strongest job creating sectors over the last two years, and those fields are far more likely to require higher degrees, than say for example, construction, which was the single biggest sector for job cuts.
The trend is also happening as jobs that previously required only a high school diploma are now requiring higher levels of education and training.
Take for example manufacturing jobs, many of which now require workers to operate sophisticated machinery. Some technical training or a background in engineering is often preferred by these employers.
To a lesser extent, part of the trend can be explained by highly educated workers taking low-wage jobs they're overqualified for.
"More and more people with bachelor's degrees are ending up in low-skill occupations," said Richard Vedder, an economist at Ohio State University. He points to census data that shows a quarter of retail salespeople have a bachelor's degree or higher.
"There are over 1 million people with bachelor's degrees who are retail sales clerks in the United States," he said. "That blew my mind."
Overall, it's still better to be college educated than under-educated and unemployed. According to Rothwell's research, over-educated workers earn 37% more than under-educated workers in the same field, and nearly always have lower unemployment rates.
"The people struggling the most are those without a college degree," he said.
Job gains for people with master's degrees aren't happening fast enough for these six grads, who say the time and expense still wasn't enough to land them a job.

Email: email@example.com
Phone: 312-919-6967
Hometown: Elgin, Il.
Birthday: December 31
Bio: Gloria Casas is a lifelong resident of the region, growing up in Elgin and Carpentersville. She attended Barrington High School in Barrington, then enrolled at William Rainey Harper College in Palatine, transferring to Northern Illinois University in DeKalb where she earned a bachelor's degree in journalism. She spent 17 years working at a local newspaper, The Courier-News, covering different beats from schools to courts to police under her maiden name, Gloria Carr. As a court reporter, she wrote about some of Kane County's most infamous cases. As she approached a milestone birthday, she decided to fulfill a dream of returning to school and obtained a Master's of Science degree in Journalism from Roosevelt University in Chicago. An even bigger dream came true in August 2009 when she and her husband became first-time parents to twins.
Your Beliefs
At Patch, we promise always to report the facts as objectively as possible and otherwise adhere to the principles of good journalism. However, we also acknowledge that true impartiality is impossible because human beings have beliefs. So in the spirit of simple honesty, our policy is to encourage our editors to reveal their beliefs to the extent they feel comfortable. This disclosure is not a license for you to inject your beliefs into stories or to dictate coverage according to them. In fact, the intent is the opposite: we hope that the knowledge that your beliefs are on the record will cause you to be ever mindful to write, report and edit in a fair, balanced way. And if you ever see evidence that we failed in this mission, please let us know.
Politics: I generally vote on the Democratic ticket, however, I have voted Republican on occasion depending on the candidate. I like to think I vote based solely on a candidate's credential. But, if I'm passionate about an issue, I will vote according to party ideology. I try to vote in every election, although I've missed a few in the last year.
I consider myself a practicing Catholic who is forever trying to make it to church on time. I admit, I don't always make it. I also enjoy visiting different churches and learning about other religions.
Local Hot-Button Issues
What do you think are the most important issues facing the community? I think growth is an ongoing issue for Huntley as well as transportation. It's great that Route 47 is finally getting expanded but, the next big project needs to be getting a full interchange at Interstate 90 built.
Where do you stand on each of these issues? I think Huntley has taken a great approach to growth by paying attention to the quality of developments. The town has a good flow to it, with the existing "old town" blending with the newer construction. It will be important to continue the smart growth. As far as the full interchange, I think it would be extremely beneficial to Huntley.

Children smiling and waving to float after float of holiday revelers will fill Broad Street this evening for the annual Rome Christmas Parade.

Comments about Da Vinci DaVinci Parker 4-in-1 Convertible Wood Crib and Dresser Set in White:
I chose this set based on my long internet search and positive reviews of other people and I am not dissapointed. Struggled a bit with assempling - did it myself on 8th month of my pregnancy - it was not hard phisically, but some of the instructions were confusing and even misleading. I am overall very happy how it looks and fits and I think this is great product for this price. In the design I like the smoothness of lines so it looks quite safe. Still we should see how our baby will like it.
Great Price for Cute Set

About Me Budget Shopper
Baby 2 hasn't arrived yet, but the set is very attractive. it's a bit thinner than our other crib set, but still sturdy. The crib arrived with one small scuff in the paint, but the changer was perfect. I put both pieces together myself- 8 months pregnant. The changer took about an hour (I accidentally put one side on incorrectly) & the crib an hour & 15min & only used the wrong screws once- so that may have taken a bit longer too. I love the way this set looks & I'm sure our Baby will love it too!

While not part of the United Nations, the OSCE is the world's largest regional security organization. It deals with a wide range of issues, including arms control, human rights, democratization, counter-terrorism and economic and environmental activities.
It produces reports on elections that it observes, highlighting how a country adheres to general democratic standards. Those reports have no legal standing.
The OSCE's Spencer Oliver told CNN that participating states invite each other to observe their elections "in order to increase transparency."
The mission started after the end of the Soviet Union as an effort to ensure there were free and fair elections in the former Communist countries.
In countries like Russia, Belarus, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and other nations in transition, the OSCE has often criticized the elections. And Oliver says "because of their allegation that we're discriminating against these countries -- that it's not balanced -- we feel that in order to show good faith we should have an election observation in the United States."
The U.S. election, said Oliver, who is an American, is "very complex" compared to many countries, with election laws defined by each of the 50 states.
"It's a very complicated system and we try to explain that system to the observers," he said. The OSCE thoroughly briefs observers before they begin their mission.
Having an election system open and transparent to the world, he said, is a plus. Shutting the doors to observers could give dictators in authoritarian regimes an excuse to do the same thing.
Nuland said that "I think you know how much we, as a country, value OSCE observation."
"We deploy American observers to places like Russia, Ukraine, countries across the Euro-Atlantic area, to observe elections ourselves. We think we have an excellent system to display to the world so we look forward to hosting the OSCE here this time."

Welcome to Ben's Bargains. Please Register, Sign in or Sign in with Facebook
How 'bout an Android phone review also? I am not interested in being locked into the Apple environment. Fortunately, Android phones are rapidly gaining market share and in my view will become the standard smartphone platform within a few years.
Definitely get a bumper: http://gizmodo.com/5582647/iphone-4-catches-fire-burns-owners-hand
So is a hacked iphone better or a hacked android?
*If you reply with "do you want freedom or captivity" as an answer, please back that response up with something tangible.
Thanks in advance
I love it how my iPhone loses signal if I hold it with my left hand. I must be holding it wrong.
Thanks for the honest review. ive been waiting for someone to compare it to a 3G, not just on the specs but how launching, etc feels.
"If you have a 3G and your contract is up, without a doubt"
Thanks for the review, I think you are very accurate and I agree with almost everything you said. We have some for users here at work and I just watched the bars drop and the phone go to searching for signal in person... so I'm very worried about that.
(@Apple) If the bumper is required, why is it a $30 accessory?
On the 3G, apps take a long time to launch, general usage of apps can be slow, etc. On the 3GS and 4, app launches are much faster, getting around apps has very little to no lag and the interface scrolls very quickly.
That said, I bought an Evo, jail broke it and now I'm sharing my net connection over wireless without having to pay Sprint the additional $30 per month. http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
I think that Ben is just showing off his new iphone.
Good Job Ben! I Love the phone too! and a good review.
Interesting how Ben spent so much time on the features of this "phone" without mentioning whether or not it was a good phone. I guess nobody uses the phone feature much anymore.
Bought one and returned it.
Before even thinking about buying it do a search with keyword "iPhone 4 Death Grip". Merely holding it normally on lower portion of the phone, your reception go from 5 bars down to 1 or none. This is obviously a design problem, but Apple claim that it is program error.
Lets not forget Apple formal response from Steve Jobs is "you are holding it wrong!" Later change to there is no Death Grip, all cell phones lose signals. Finally the most recent response is the display does not display the correct info, the next iOS update will fix this which I highly doubt because software do not fix dropped calls.
Do another search on "iPhone 4 proximity sensor", because when you bring the phone to your ear to talk the screen some times it stays lit and button functional so your face may hit a button.
Basically iPhone4 was rushed out because their phone was lost and the secret was out, have to rush it out to keep people interested in the phone before it become old news and the new gadgets become common on other phones as well.
i disagree with unison999... software can undoubtedly affect reception. just like an in car dash receiver (g pioneer) can affect sound quality of the radio.. also disagree that they rushed it.. a new iphone comes out annually.. and undoubtedly there will be a next generation, and another, and so on.. every year, they have that mac/apple meeting and steve jobs never lets us down with a new innovative product. one year it was the ipod, another it was the iphone. the mac book air... the nano... etc. to name a few.
Ben, are you trying to show off that you got an I phone 4 while most people don't?
I'm ditching my 3G to get a Droid of some sort (X or 2) in August or September. A co-worker of mine recently got an iPhone 4 and I vomited on it when he showed it to me. It's digusting. It seems marginally quicker than a 3GS with a nicer screen and quicker/better camera. That's great, since I never use the camera on my 3G and the screen resolution on it is just fine (in my opinion). I can't take 2 more years of AT&T AND Apple's s Android, here I come!!!
Thanks for the review Ben. My 3G contract is not up til next march. I figure i will wait until the Iphone 5 announcement and see whats coming before leaping. But wow has trusty old 3G slowed down with ios 3&4. Getting annoying. Planned obsolescence.

DCRP Review: Canon PowerShot SX40 HS
<p>Overall, the Canon PowerShot SX40 HS is a good super zoom camera, but there are better choices out there. In terms of design and features, it's very competitive. Photo quality is a little better than most of the cameras in this class. Where the SX40 lags a bit is in terms of performance, manual controls, and movie mode. The last super zoom camera I reviewed was the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ150,...

For survivors of gang rape
Posted 06 January 2007 - 05:04 PM
© 2007 Pandoras Aquarium
By: Kristy
Gang Rape
While there are many similarities in the healing process for survivors of all types of assault, each also carries its own implications for healing.
The term gang rape refers to sexual assault that is perpetrated by two or more people. While there is a significant lack of literature out there for survivors of gang rape, this does not mean that you are alone. In fact, numerous studies and statistics on gang rape have shown that it is a crime that is committed far too often; occurring in all kinds of circumstances, by all kinds of groups.
Group dynamics & the audience factor
It is incredibly intimidating to be confronted by a group of people, particularly if their intent is to cause physical harm. Additionally, there is a great deal of humiliation in knowing that there was an audience witnessing the rape. Not only are multiple people committing sexual assault against you, but also watching in the same room/area. Other people may know what is going on, and not do anything to help or stop the assault.
The group dynamics of gang rape may have left you feeling uncomfortable with any audience, regardless of whether they are supportive. Theres a certain powerlessness that stems from not having anyone on your side, and this might later cause you to feel anxious or intimidated in any social situation. Confrontation of any sort might leave you feeling ganged up on and frightened. You may find yourself feeling overwhelmed by crowds, or even smaller groups of people. These are all very natural reactions to what you have endured, and they will lessen with time, and as you move forward with your healing.
A significant aspect of gang rape is the function it serves in reinforcing a sense of worthlessness in the victim. Gang rape often involves elements of torture and ridicule; thereby causing a victim to feel like they are less than their perpetrators. While those feelings of humiliation may be strong, they are not yours to own. Their actions are solely a reflection on them.
Dealing with the aftermath of a gang rape can be a very isolating experience, and while you may struggle with reaching out, its very worthwhile to seek the guidance and support of a professional.
It is likely that you experienced some form of disassociation during the trauma, and it can be difficult to re-connect yourself to that experience. You may find that the only way you can even begin to process and work through your ordeal, is to break it down into smaller pieces or compartments.
Gang rape survivors often express a common fear of their experiences sounding like dirty porn or made-up horror stories. Such heinous acts can feel unbelievable, and may prevent a survivor from feeling able to speak out about their experience.
The unfortunate reality is that these things do happen. YOU know your truth, and there will be many others who will too.
When something as traumatic and harrowing as gang rape happens to you, the future might lose its relevance; you might feel like youll never have control over your own life again. Recovery is not easy, but the fact that you have survived against terrible odds demonstrates that you have the capacity to move forward through the pain.
Be understanding of yourself, and honour the courage that has led you to this point. You can make it through.
