Program Details
To provide a platform for free elementary school running programs that will encourage and develop youth fitness.
Provide detailed workouts and a Track in the Box supply kit for schools to execute an after school running program led by volunteer coaches. Program materials are supplied at no cost. T-shirts for every student every season are provided. For low income schools a financial stipend is provided to coaches who assist.
- Complete program booklets that include warm up and cool down stretches, running form lessons for kids and coaches, and running games and strategies.
- Sport log pages to track miles accumulated by each student
- Track in the Box supply kit with items such as cones, whistles, stop watch, balls, and jump rope.
- Free training seminar for volunteers or teachers who will lead programs.
- Project Fit running program provides an emphasis on running games and challenge courses that include T&F themes such as running, throwing, long jump, etc. The program includes warm up and cool down drills and reviewing proper running technique. In addition, kids would be asked to keep a training log to track mileage. Walking or running counts towards the mileage as long as an adult verifies the mileage. This promotes families to get exercise together and encourages kids to walk to school.
- Schools would have the option to identify a parent volunteer to lead an after school program or a school could identify one school employee to lead it during the school day.
- Financial stipends for "lead" coaches are provided for underfunded schools.
Jan & Pat Sweeney, owners of Fleet Feet Sports Sacramento, have supported several local elementary schools with free after-school running programs for years. Having seen the amazing accomplishments of the children in the programs and knowing that young children are not getting the amount of exercise they require, the Sweeney's launched Project Fit to help other area schools who have reduced physical education programs and recess times.
The lack of fitness is a leading problem in increased childhood obesity and the development of diabetes.According to the U.S. Center of Disease Control, in the next 15 years, Type 2 diabetes in adults will quadruple. Diabetes in youth is now considered one of the most common chronic diseases in the U.S. In under privileged communities, children have the added burden of seeing no way out of their social situation and rarely get an opportunity to develop their potential physically, mentally, or emotionally.
Running programs promote fitness, discipline, team work, and responsibility. It helps kids feel good about themselves and it encourages others to join in the fun. Frequently when parents volunteer at the program, they become encouraged to increase their fitness and join their children in developing good health habits. This develops a love of fitness and sports that is dwindling in our current culture. The current President's Physical Fitness Program has had to reduce its requirements from a generation ago!
Fleet Feet Sports stores nationwide sponsor the No Boundaries program targeting adults who want to learn to become athletic. In 2009, the No Boundaries program had over 10,000 participants. Why wait until they have developed poor habits when we can influence their behaviors while they are young?
A reporter for National Public Radio recently interviewed elementary school administrators from Woodland Elementary School in Kansas, Mo where they expanded physical education to push student heart rates daily. Beyond the physical benefits they've seen, they saw aggressive behavior decrease and in-school suspensions drop a whopping 60%. John Ratey, a Harvard professor in clinical psychiatry, explains that exercise increases blood flow to the prefrontal cortex. This inhibits the impulsivity coming from the emotional part of the brain helping kids think before they act. Research in adults has shown exercise can boost blood flow, which can lead to improved focus and attention. Ratey says researchers are just beginning to nail down the benefits in children.
For those interested in following what could be possible, there can be no better example than the Be Change program, a Sacramento non-profit community outreach program. They established a running program at one of northern California's poorest performing schools and with the support of a handful of volunteers, graffiti has been eliminated on campus, they took 50 children to the 2.62 Kaiser C.I.M marafun run (Fleet Feet provided 4 coaches for the season and on race day), provided food for children going without, and obtained (through sponsors such as Fleet Feet and New Balance) running shoes, backpacks and t-shirts for all 50 children on race day.

Product Details
Would you like to update product info or give feedback on images? |
Everybody knows that 1964-1971 were the golden years for the Stones, and this compilation, which deftly selected the hits from that era, is damn good stuff. All the landmark material is accounted for--Get Off Of My Cloud, Paint It Black, Let's Spend The Night Together, Gimme Shelter, Jumpin' Jack Flash, Street Fighting Man, Sympathy For The Devil, a live cut of Midnight Rambler, and of course, (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction. Although this will not satisfy diehard fans and I wish a few other songs were included (Stray Cat Blues, the Ya-Ya version of Carol, Sister Morphine, She's A Rainbow, 2000 Man) everything here is grade-A gritty blues rock. The second disc could very well stand alone, it's that good.
As far as the SACD remasters are concerned, they are a massive improvement over the original remasters in every conceivable way. And don't believe the naysayers who claim the new versions are not compatible with PCs--they are.
If you have this and Exile On Main Street, you're set as a casual fan. Completists will want the individual albums, but Hot Rocks does a damn good job of capturing the Stones at their finest before old age and drug abuse set in. Recommended.
I'll start with the former.
This is one of those few, special, greatest hits sets that is, in every way, perfect! Most best of's always leave off important tracks and have moments of worthless filler. Others are made obsolete by better, more complete sets. Not Hot Rocks. Merely because it covers only the best, most famous, and most influential songs of the 7 years when the Stones were at their peak, mountains above the rest of rock and roll. (except the Beatles, Dylan, and Hendrix). Sure Not Fade Away, The Last Time, and 2000 Light Years (among others) were fine, but how can you say they aren't dwarfed by the looming presence of every song on this album? (Which includes Time is on my Side, Satisfaction, Paint it Black, Let's Spend the Night Together, Jumpin' Jack Flash, Sympathy for the Devil, and Brown sugar)
In conclusion this is a perfect sampler of everything that was great and magical about the Rolling Stones, and remains great and magical today. Words can not describe the greatness of the songs in this album, so I can only say this, I can only say that you are not a rock and roll fan until you are Stones fan. So for everybody who wishes to sink their teeth into the glory days of the Rolling Stones, Hot Rocks is the place to begin. (Note: While you're at it, get Exile on Main Street and Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out as well.)
Now for those who already who need a reason to buy this again.
Most everyone who collects music knows how badly one can be screwed out of well-earned money by remasters. (i.e the Ozzy Osbourne "remasters" released this year) Not this time around. You will never Rolling Stones recordings that sound so fresh and clear. New musical bits are brought to the surface for the first time in years. (Most notably on Honky Tonk Woman where horns and new guitar licks can be heard for the first time) And all those classic old songs now sound sharper and more distinct than ever. You can hear those wonderful guitar riffs, drums, and bass licks (oh those wonderful Bill Wyman bass licks) like never before. (i.e. Brian Jones' sitar on Paint it Black is at last brought to the front of the mix, and you can actually hear two different guitars on Midnight Rambler). It gets even better for those that have bought SACD players, for on the SACD layer it sounds even more incredible. It almost sounds as if you are sitting there in the studio watching the Stones make the master takes. And for those that think this isn't worth buying, because all these songs are on other discs, think about this; you won't be hearing the original Brown Sugar and Wild Horses sounding so good for a while.
So in conclusion anybody who is anybody owes it to themselves to buy the new version of Hot Rocks. New fans get a sampler of some of the greatest music ever made, and the older fans get the best sounding glory-day Stones you'll ever hear. The Rolling Stones Remasters is one of the best (if not the best) of its kind. It is definetely worth checking out. And Hot Rocks ain't a bad place to start. Get it today!

Paris chic is a bit geek…
The return of the iconic Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses is the height of style in Paris
The iconic Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses are the Paris fashion must-have accessory for classic French chic with a twist.The chic geek look makes a comeback.
You can't miss them— it's as if the iconic and classic Ray-Ban sunglasses are literally raining in on Paris and the epitome of French chic at this moment!
They're featured in trendsetting Colette, front and center in just about every optical store, and worn on the most fashionable women and men on the streets of Paris. The French love to glom onto a style and at this moment, RayBan Wayfarer sunglasses in all sizes and colors are it!
We know fashion runs in cycles and solid styles will make their way back in fashion. The wickedly chic "Breakfast at Tiffany's" Ray-Ban sunglasses that Audrey Hepburn made famous in 1961 made their comeback as a 1980′s downtown club trend which went global, particularly when Madonna donned a pair "Desperately Seeking Susan" and Tom Cruise in "Risky Business."
Fast-forward another two decades and the retro Ray-Ban return is nothing all that novel– chic geek girls and boys have been putting clear lenses in vintage Wayfarers for a time, but the French know how to take it up a notch from purposely dorky retro to of-the-moment cool. Maybe, it's the drunken abundance of the new kooky bi-color Wayfarer frames in red, olive, plum, or teal that caught my attention from the Marais to Madelaine, but I had to have a pair while working in Paris.
Working in Paris, you say? Yes, sweet darlings, the FocusOnStyle.com French team is getting ready to go live with our brand-new web design very soon!
Ray-Ban's are about the same in Euros as Dollars, but with our abysmal exchange rate, you'll save yourself at least a third of the cost if you get your Ray-Bans stateside. I usually have a bad case of attention spam for most full-circle trends, but for these bright red specs, I just couldn't wait, and you shouldn't hold your fire picking up this fabulous summer accessory.

The not so reluctant home system engineer
Wednesday, November 8th, 2006I am beginning to think this is the year of returning to my inner geek.
First I went to work at Webmail.us where I ended up bringing my own computers, network hub, and even an Internet phone. Since I was one of only a couple of Mac users, I ended up figuring some of the printing and other technology issues with only a little help. I actually wrote about that on Applepeels in the post, "Heterogenous Apple nirvana, well almost." Then we moved the Webmail.us outside sales office to Roanoke, and I ended up setting another office for myself.
Since I do a fair amount of web work, I usually need three machines to survive, a Mac desktop, a Windows box, and a Mac laptop. When we got a place in the fall on the White Oak River near Cape Carteret, NC, it was obvious that I needed another office. I decided to leave a Mac at home in Roanoke to drive my big Epson printers, but I felt that I need my dual G5 and my Dell desktop. My youngest daughter confiscated my Dell laptop for her business classes at UNCC.
I actually enjoy technology when I can make it work. I'm usually persistent enough to eventually achieve that. I can move pretty easily from Mac OSX to Windows XP to Ubuntu Linux. In fact when I want to procrastinate I will often lose myself in technology challenges. I spent a lot of time in 2004 getting Linux up and running, and experimenting with SUSE and Xandros distributions before settling on Ubuntu as my standard. When I recently did some upgrades on all three operating systems, I was convinced that Ubuntu was as easy if not easier than Mac OSX.
For my coastal office printers I went with an Ethernet equipped Brother 5250N and a HP AIO Photosmart C6180 which also supported Ethernet. I installed a router with firewall and four ports, one of with goes to an Airport Express and another to a small hub. We are using a cable modem hooked to Time-Warner. I also have a Vonage Internet phone to go along with our land line. We are using an AT&T two line wireless phone system which works great.
So far everything seems to be working fine. The biggest challenge was the HP AIO which I wrote about in the post, "HP AIO Photosmart C6180 and Mac OSX." Last night I got the fax working. Unfortunately I first tried to set it up using the Mac. That turned out not to work. I used the Dell to get it going. The Windows Wizard had another setting which seemed to fix things. I had already confirmed that the printing works, both text, color, and photo. Still the HP software for the Mac seems very intrusive.
The HP scanning does work. Other than the feature to scan directly to iPhoto, which I like a lot, I felt like I was missing my good friend VueScan which I have used in Roanoke to drive my Epson scanner since Mac OSX came out. I tried to see if VueScan would see the HP C6180 scanner on the network but it did not, even with the most recent version. Tonight I read through the HP manual to make certain there was no reason to not use the USB port on the AIO while the Ethernet port was active. I could not find any warning so I hooked up my MacBook using the USB cable from my recently deceased Sony camera. VueScan saw the scanner and I was in business.
The only thing left is to try is to see how well the printers work with Ubuntu. There is no rush on that. That might be a good winter project for a lazy Saturday.
One of the interesting things that I have run into is that it seems every that every hardware manufacturer, including those who do printers, computers, and cameras has its own suite of consumer digital photo tools. They're all similar, and it gets a little weird with all the choices of how to manage your photos. Once you throw in Adode, Apple, Google, and Microsoft, you have to wonder if the market can support this many solutions. Actually my guess is the market will figure it out. The support people might rightfully view this proliferation as scary. Just imagine a Mac running Parallels Windows software. You could have Nikon, Sony, HP, Apple, Microsoft, Adobe, and Google software all fighting for control of the same photos.
Invariably the client based software doesn't seem to work nearly as well managing photos on the web as the true web based solutions like Flickr and Picasa Web Albums. That's the case even in the with the iPhoto, iWeb, and dot Mac from Apple who used to be the digital content king. I wrote about this recently on Applepeels in the post, "My problem with Apple."
I am not sure why the companies are spending so much money on this segment. My guess is that there will be some shakeout, but that's the subject of another post.
Right now I am proud of my new office, and I would recommend all of the products that I am using. The only exception would be the Parallels Desktop software which turns the MacBook into a Windows box. The problem is probably caused by the measly 1 gig of ram on my MacBook, but I doubt I will figure that out for a while since I have my Dell box running.
I do not have a lot of tolerance for technology gadgets or companies that fail to meet my expectations so expect to see a post or at least a comment if I run into challenges like the IE crash that I had last night after installing Internet Explorer 7. I did like some of the new feature of IE, but crashing is not a good way to win my confidence.
The office even looks good since I even ran the cables through the desk. This is the neatest office that I have ever had. I must be mellowing with age. Just getting it working used to be the most important task and often the only thing that mattered. Just do not ask my kids about my old cable tree.

Esteban, the drug lord at the end of the underground tunnel, Nancy's ultimate boss in her current drug trade, and the mayor of his town in Mexico (that's his cover job - mayor - I love it), has shown his interest in Nancy and spanking a few episodes ago. Nancy has not followed drug cartel protocol, and needs to be disciplined. When Nancy shows up by car (not tunnel) this time, to ask Esteban for her own supply of weed (which Guillermo has refused her), Esteban asks Nancy if she realizes she needs to be punished. Nancy says yes, and - he spanks her (on her panties, to be precise).
Nancy's reaction is the key to this important episode. She's surprised, and is sore afterwards, but clearly enjoyed the spanking. She's certainly not sore at Esteban, who comes through for her with the drugs.
A breakthrough episode in more ways than one, with Nancy for the first time this season regaining some power. And those photos that Judah long ago took of her, which Andy teased her about, and Shane and we now see, ain't bad either ...

This is one of the most warm, friendly and interesting place you can choose to stay on your Paris trip. The host, Godo is so kind and helpful. House is lovely with the garden, fishes in a little pool and the cats. All makes your stay such a good experience, makes you feel at home! The location is close to the metro station, so getting anywhere is not a problem once you take the metro. I'll definitely go and stay there again! Thanks for everything :)

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time at Chez Godo and the owner was so very lovely; not only did he make us feel welcome, he also gave us tips on what to do and a very nice restaurant we ended up dining at. Considering you'll never find anything in the centre of Paris at a decent price, it's location isn't too bad, you can get there by tram and if you're coming back late at night, there's a bus you can take and from the bus stop/metro station, it's only a short walk away. Would recommend!

Hi all,
Dane Campbell here. As Roopy has mentioned in previous threads, I have been on this forum for a number of years under an alias, but with a new venture in the form of the Hurricanes Rugby League I have decided to make it accessible for all supporters to make contact with me, as I feel this is something that can positively impact on the international rugby league landscape and I am open to input from all sources as I know there are some very talented people on this forum. By allowing greater access I hope to be able to hear ideas and possibly implement them in moving the Hurricanes Rugby League franchise forward in Jamaica.
As many of you would be aware through reading Druzik's article in the link provided in the first thread, I have started a franchise called Hurricanes Rugby League. This franchise will be run as a business in Jamaica and will serve to provide pathways for young Jamaican players follow the dream of becoming professional rugby league players. There has been plenty of thought go into the concept and the ultimate aim is to compete in the AMNRL competition by the year 2013. This timeframe has been established to allow us time to create structures for the business that will be sustainable and to not over promise things that we can not commit to, or would be a struggle or a drain financially. I have spoken briefly to David Nui about the concept and he was receptive to the idea and in time we will continue to plan for entry into the AMNRL by 2013.
It is also important to make people aware that the Hurricanes Rugby League (HRL) is a seperate legal and trading entity to that of the Jamaica Rugby League Association (JRLA). I have spoken at length to Romeo Monteith (JRLA Development Manager) who has been liasing with the JRLA board of directors to ensure that everything is transparent. At all times the HRL will work in tandem with the JRLA's objectives and goals so that we can both further promote the sport of rugby league in Jamaica at all levels. You will also note that we have specifically not included a city name attached to our name, as we want to be seen as a team for the nation, rather than isolate ourselves to one geographical location.
The aim of the HRL is not come in and do the JRLA's job, rather provide a top tier level for elite players to become fulltime rugby league players. The aim would be to see players that compete in the JRLA Schools and Community competitions identified and provided further opportunities to advance their skills. As an assistant coach to the Jamaica national team, I certainly see value in such a concept, as the HRL will then provide high class training and development structures that will nuture future national team players. By the players competing in the ever improving AMNRL competition it will also broaden their knowledge and experience in the game.
So that is a bit about where we are headed, now to where we are currently:
Last weekend saw the very first Hurricanes Rugby League Academy training session. The HRL Academy caters for players aged 16-19 that compete in the JRLA Schools competition. Current Jamaica national team player Roy Calvert (also General Manager of HRL) put the 10 players through their paces at a physical testing day. These 10 players have all been included in the Academy after careful consideration not only of their playing ability, but also their character off the field also. We want to base our franchise around the principles that we are ambassadors for the sport of rugby league and as such we need to have outstanding young men involved with the franchise to portray this image. All players selected thus far have shown a real enthusiasm to be part of the Academy program and should they complete the 6-month training program, will be rewarded with full scholarships to go towards school tutition fee's, along with assistance with resources such as mouthguards and transport. We aim to ensure that these players are recieving professional programs which are equivilant to programs being conducted by players in Australia, New Zealand, France and England, so that they can challenge themselves to be the best they can be. Plans are also underway already for the 2011 intake of Academy players with various initatives planned for final selection of players. With Romeo doing such a wonderful job at promoting the game to schools, we now have 8 schools in which to select players from, as opposed to 3 from last year. This requires greater analysis and plans are to have several trial phases before ultimate selection of an expanded 15 man Academy next year. It is hoped that these players that come through the Academy set up will eventually become Hurricanes senior players in 3 years time.
That is a little about current activities on the playing field. Off the field we are in the final stages of business registration, bank accounts, websites, social media pages etc. which is why we will "officially" launch in January 2011. This is where we will launch logo, colours, website, merchandise and sponsorship, membership and other financial assistance packages. I would like to think that once launched there will be plenty of interest from people on this forum and I encourage you all to look into the various options that will be available to support the Hurricanes Rugby League.
In the meantime, we have set up an interim email address (which can not link here as I have fewer than 20 posts, but it is in the replies to Druzik's article in the link provided in first thread post) which is where people can contact me direct with any initaitves you may wish to share or questions that you may about any aspect of the franchise. Similarly, if you would like to pre-register your interest in assisting the HRL you can contact me and I will put your details to file for when time comes to launch packages.
Again, I thank you all for your intial positive response to the Hurricanes Rugby League and here is to a long and fruitful journey of self and cultural awareness and experience for our players, staff, sponsors and supporters.

Back in August, a good friend of mine told me of a wedding he had recently attended, the wedding of his friend, a Brooklyn artist, to her hubby. He described the reception as the most intricately designed party he had ever been to or seen! The elaborate nature of this bouquet aligns with what I imagined when he told me of this celebration. :)
Generally speaking, I am not big into the vintage wedding idea; however, I came across these charming vintage tin can floral arrangements on The Wedding Chicks and could not help but smile. I love them! Speaking of flowers, I am shopping at the Los Angeles Flower District some time this week. For any who live in or near the city, you should too!! BEST (really, the best) deals on flowers, ribbons, vases, and much more! Get there early :)
Above is one of my favorite Martha Stewart do it yourself favor packaging projects, "How-To Paper Dahlia." If you're truly interested in pursuing this project, the tissue paper trim template is available on her online website! I am definitely going to try this one out (especially given that I have holiday break time on my side).
Drink flags—just cute or absolutely indispensable? I say the latter! :) Yes, to some these may be considered mere trinkets, but details matter and creative treats like these show that a host cares to take his or her event to the next level. Plus, who could make a misstep with these favors? They're adorable! The drink flags featured above are by Wiley Valentine (they carry the cutest stationery ever), truly "inspired paper delights."
Having been raised consuming Disney Princess films like water, naturally I am attracted to the whole Disney Fairy Tale Weddings & Honeymoons program. Have you seen their brochure? If yes, amazing; right?! If not, you should. To be part of Disney's Wedding Team would be my "happily ever after." Anyways, to supplement this program, of course Disney has its very own bridal line, concocted in conjunction with some of the fashion-world's signature names. Fairy Tale Weddings by Alfred Angelo—if you have any love for Disney, or weddings, or both, give it a look!

Hey all, a few questions. Apologies if these have been covered in the archives, that link seems to be dead.
1. Can you choose not to use a hyperstat? I'm thinking specifically of a situation where a talent with hypercoordination, low on will, wants to shoot another talent, and to prevent a loss of will/contest of wills the shooter would rather just use their 'normal' pool.
2. Related to shooting talents with guns, do hyperskills like pistol trigger a contest of wills? What about the hyperskill of throwing? Is this like hypercoord in that it "targets" another talent or is it like hyperbody in that it lets you grab and heft an object better? (Personally I find the whole distinction wierd.)
And now a few unrelated questions:
3. If a talent has comic-book-style x-ray vision, looks through a wall, and sees an ubermenschen, does the ubermenechen know he's being watched via talent detection?
4. Detection at base cost: does this allow the talent to choose to detect different things with every use, or does it mean that when designing the talent you may choose any one specific thing that you can detect?
5. Is there a limit to the number of spray dice you can have in a Harm pool? It seems very cheesy to make a Harm power with tons of extras (i.e. electrocuting+splash+burn+spray for 13/26/52), take 1 die of it, and then buy 4 other spray dice at 3 points each.

As I understand it the plastic is polythene, if that is the case then the options are limited.
The recommended methods are;
Hot gas welding: specially designed heat gun, called a hot air welder, produces a jet of hot air that softens both the parts
Ultrasonic welding: high-frequency ultrasonic acoustic vibrations are locally applied to workpieces
Laser welding: laser beam provides a concentrated heat source
Infrared welding: halves are held rigidly in position near an infrared emitting platen to melt the joining surfaces
Fastening: the drill and pin method talked about here.
I am using earthquake putty for the time being, then I may go the route of "fastening".
It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.

Use a little PVA glue plus Super glue. Always good results.
Its time for revenge.
Lets attack aggressively!
As for suggestions to priming the figs, I just used Krylon spray can for plastics. It seems to work really great and comes in a variety of colors. You can find them at Wal-Mart stores. I recommend washing the figs in a household detergent and drying first before spraying. Let the figs dry for several days before staring to paint them.
Without Signature
Here is another idea - this is how I have made the joins between cavalry and horse permanent.
Use a hot soldering iron with a fine head. Ensure you are working in a well ventilated area.
Brush the riders at the points where they contact the saddle - just enough to melt the plastic.
Do the same to the saddle. Then quickly press the rider in place.The pastics fuse together. and you have a bond.
Without Signature
I used a light touch with a soldering iron to the man an the saddle - they are still stuck on.

I've heard stories of friends who were put in an insane asylum, because they heard voices. I've heard they were put away because they saw spirits in their homes. Less than thirty years later a great many people are safe to mention and admit they are having paranormal experiences without most people thinking they are utterly insane. We can even provide proof for those people. Pictures and voices that we can't see with the human eyes and hear with the human eye. Whether paranormal or not we have proved they are having these experiences.
Recently over the past few years TV shows have been popping up on every channel from Medium, Ghost Whisperer, Paranormal State, Ghost Hunters, Ghost Adventures, I Survived…Beyond and Back, A Haunting and Most Haunted. These are only to name a few of these shows.
I've seen post recently about paranormal sellouts. People who don't just do ghost hunting to help people, clients, or get proof. That they shouldn't be doing this on TV. My comment, experience, opinion is that they've done greater help for our society and our world, then someone who would turn it down, just because they feel they are sell outs. If you were in the shoes of someone who was put away at age 8 or age 30 or age 55, for seeing apparitions you would know what I mean. The stories are heartbreaking. These kids and adults weren't trying to kill someone, they didn't jump off buildings thinking they can fly - they were just expressing an experience that we now find are common place. These television personalities; psychics and investigators have helped open the door to awareness. To create a less judgmental society and less skeptics that are eager to lock people away and throw away the key.
Some of the people that shared stories with me were people who were put away by parents and spouses. Telling the story is still painful to them.
I am thankful for these show as they have opened our eyes and allowed us a sense of freedom. I was reminded of that today when I found out that the military will allow gay people to fight and die for us openly. Will and Grace, Broke Back Mountain, Noah's Arc, The L Word and so many other shows that have showed us that gay people are people, HUMAN'S and not to be hidden or shamed for who they are. They laugh, love and bleed like everyone else. They get hurt feelings, believe in god and would die for another human being just like many other folks in this world. They are skeptics, believers, lovers and can be killers just like a straight person. There are no differences good or bad and I believe the media as screwed up as it can be at time, made a huge positive difference. It great to be able to focus on the positive here.
It doesn't matter if we are talking about the paranormal, people who see ghost; see the future or if you are gay trying to have a semi-normal life. We all have a right to freedom and to be heard.
Thank you to: Lance Bass, Ricky Martin, Sean Hayes, Portia de Rossi and wife Ellen DeGeneres, Rosie O'Donnell, Neil Patrick Harris, David Burtka, Jane Lynch, Chely Wright, Adam Lambert, Rachel Maddow, 'Queer Eye for the Straight Guy' cast, Cynthia Nixon (Sex in the City), Esera Tualolo, Billy Bean, Elton John, Richard Hatch, Melissa Etheridge, George Takei, RuPaul, Dan Butler, David Hyde Pierce (Frazier), Alan Cumming, Sir Ian McKellan, Wilson Cruz, George Michael, Boy George, Anthony Rapp, Simon Callow and many others who didn't have to come out, but in by doing so has helped change history. To my many friends who have come out and to the people I have yet to meet that are out. Thank you for changing history, thank you television for allowing many to have voices when they had no other place to speak out.
Thank you to: Joe Solmonese President of the 'Human Rights Campaign' http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Solmonese

MACOMB, Ill. - The Fighting Leatherneck cross country teams will head to Peoria, Ill. Friday (Oct. 12) for their last meet of the season before the Summit League Championships Saturday (Oct. 27).
There are, however, some expectations for the purple and gold going into this meet to fine tune themselves for the Championships.
"From the men, I am looking for the team to race what we have executed in our training. The gap between our scorers [#1-#5] has to be reduced," said third-year head coach David Beauchem. "On the women's side we have to be out faster and be much more competitive early in the race. We don't have to be perfect, but we certainly need to be better."
What: Bradley Cross Country Classic
When: Friday, October 12, 2012
Where: Newman Golf Course, Peoria, Ill.
Event: Men's 8K at 4:25 p.m. and Women's 5K at 5:05 p.m.
The top runners on both teams, Michael Castel and Alycia Thurston, will be the ones leading their teams this Friday.
There have been some strong individual performances throughout this season, no doubt. But, with this meet on Friday and the Summit League Championships looming a couple weeks away, Coach Beauchem sees that last chance to be able to put it all together.
"Honestly, I expect everyone to perform at the highest level they have during this season. But, Zach Wiedeman and Chase Marlow have to race well for our men to be successful. On the women's side that role falls on Lydia Smith and Mackenzie Gray. They represent the key scoring positions on each team. Again, they don't have to be perfect," said coach Beauchem.
In 2011, Castel led the Leatherneck men individually finishing with a time of 25:15 in his 8K. Chelsea Lynes led the women in the 5K race with a time of 22:27.
MEN'S TEAMS: Bowling Green, Bradley, Creighton, DePaul, Drake, Eastern Illinois, Illinois-B, Illinois State, Fort Wayne, IUPUI, Marquette-B, Northern Iowa, Oakland, Southern Illinois-Carbondale, St. Louis, Illinois-Chicago, Wisconsin-Green Bay, Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Western Illinois
WOMEN'S TEAMS: Alabama-Birmingham, Bowling Green, Bradley, Creighton, DePaul, Drake, Eastern Illinois, Illinois-B, Illinois State, Fort Wayne, IUPUI, Marquette, Northern Illinois, Northern Iowa, Northwestern-B, Oakland, Southern Illinois-Carbondale, Illinois-Chicago, Wisconsin-Green Bay, Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Western Michigan, Western Illinois
"The Bradley Classic is going to be a great challenge for our team. It will be the best mix of Illinois schools and Summit League schools we have had during the regular season. The strength of cross country and track and field throughout the state of Illinois is tremendous and we look forward to competing in Peoria this weekend," said coach.

Go with the large case!
By ashlee
from MA
I should have gone with my gut instinct and gotten the large size bag. unfortunately, I listened to the reviews on how large the large bag was, and got the small. if you are only using this for a pair or two of hosiery, or a very small bra, go for the small size, otherwise get the large one. the small bag is extremely small (I made a joke that I wouldn't be able to fit one cup of one of my bras in it.. but I'm pretty sure it's true!). other than that.. the mesh is a nice small weave, so it's not rough.
Hosiery Wash Case Small
By Lindy Lou
from Sebring, Florida
I used this bag 4 times and the seams came apart and my bras became loose in the washing machine causing the bras to tangle with other clothes and stretch out. I was very disappointed in this product!! :(
Protect Your Delicates!
By Barbm

These little bags work great in the washer when washing your bras. It extends their life! i have used this product for years. I only have to replace after about 6 or 7 years. A good little item.

Today I wanted to take a little time and explain how one becomes a delegate to the national convention. It's one of the most common questions delegates get asked so figured it would be good to do a post on the subject.
The process begins early in the year with "Precinct Reorganization." This is where neighbors come together to devise a game plan to elect Democrats up and down the ballot. It's the most basic level of our Democratic process: people talking with their neighbors and taking responsibility for getting their neighbors out to vote in November.
If you want to be a delegate you must get voted to become a delegate to the county convention which was held in March. At the county convention everyone gathers together to hear from local candidates and to vote on who among them will go on to be delegates to the state convention
In between the county convention and the state convention those who are interested in being delegates to the convention must fill out some additional paperwork to qualify. If you properly filled out your paperwork and been elected at those two previous conventions then at the state convention you run to become a National delegate. Because we are Democrats and believe that diversity is critical to success as a Nation, we elect some people people based on age, race, sexual orientation, gender etc. We want to make sure the people from all walks of life are represented in Charlotte in 2012 because unlike our Republican opponents the Democratic Party is all about inclusion.
Once you've been elected as a delegate to the national convention there several meetings that you must attend to follow up and learn about what specific tasks you need to accomplish as a delegate. It also helps so that we can learn to be more effective delegates when we get to Charlotte. The SCDP did a great job of including a lot of good information about the process here.

Justification: This species is listed as Least Concern as it has an extremely large range, and hence does not approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the range size criterion (Extent of Occurrence <20,000 km2 combined with a declining or fluctuating range size, habitat extent/quality, or population size and a small number of locations or severe fragmentation). Despite the fact that the population trend appears to be decreasing, the decline is not believed to be sufficiently rapid to approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the population trend criterion (>30% decline over ten years or three generations). The population size may be small, but it is not believed to approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the population size criterion (<10,000 mature individuals with a continuing decline estimated to be >10% in ten years or three generations, or with a specified population structure). For these reasons the species is evaluated as Least Concern. More information is needed to determine the rate of decline and size of the population. Should the population be found to be smaller or declining more rapidly than currently thought, the species would warrant uplisting to a higher threat category. |

Population: | Ferguson-Lees et al. (2001) estimated the population to number 1,000-10,000 individuals, but in Europe, the breeding population is estimated to number 300-700 breeding pairs, equating to 900-2,100 individuals (BirdLife International 2004). A revised global estimate is therefore 2,000-10,000 individuals, roughly equating to 1,300-6,700 mature individuals. |
Population Trend: | Decreasing |
Systems: | Terrestrial |
Major Threat(s): |
The main causes of on-going declines appear to be non-target poisoning, direct persecution, habitat degradation, disturbance of breeding birds, inadequate food availability,changes in livestock-rearing practices and collisions with power-lines and wind farms (Ferguson-Lees and Christie 2001, Barov and Derhé 2011, S. Xirouchaki in litt. 2012). Simmons and Jenkins (2007) suggested that population trends in this species in southern Africa may be correlated with climate trends. |

This is Amos. An 11-year-old orang-utan who has started to grow into a fabulous adult male. His shoulders are filling out, his muscles are getting bigger and the hair under his arms is growing long. But will his cheeks also grow into big cheek pads? See for yourself in the renovated orang-utan area.
Apenheul is home to wonderful orang-utans. The big, impressive male was Karl. He had dreadlocks, a huge throat sac and big cheeks pads. But Karl was old and unfortunately died when he was 52.
Now, it is Amos's turn. He is starting to become a real magnificent adult male. He has almost doubled in weight! His cheeks are also beginning to develop into big cheek pads. Very impressive to see.
Now that Amos has a whole new look, this charming male has caught the eye of orang-utan Sandy. Will she become pregnant this year? Visit the renovated orang-utan area and find out for yourself!
Amos is starting to become a real magnificent adult male. He has almost doubled in weight!
Closer than you think!
The orang-utan area has been completely renovated and there are lots of things to see and do!
A day trip to Apenheul Primate Park is always a well spent and complete day out!

Representative of the swamps of this region is Ontario's Minesing Swamp, a 6000 ha wetland in the Nottawasaga River drainage basin west of Lake Simcoe. It is rich in herbaceous flowering plants and is forested by such common deciduous swamp trees as red MAPLE, black ASH, white ELM and silver maple. Eastern white CEDAR, a CONIFER, is also common in many swamp FORESTS and tends to form dense associations on shallow, wet soils where LIMESTONE is near the surface.
Marshes are treeless wetland where lush growths of herbaceous plants (eg, GRASSES, SEDGES, reeds and CATTAILS) predominate. Marshes usually form in quiet shallows of ponds, lakes and rivers, and along sheltered coastlines where mineral nutrients are available. They are highly productive ECOSYSTEMS teeming with life.
Freshwater marshes are abundant and widely scattered across North America. In Canada, the better known freshwater marshes border Lakes St Clair, Erie and Ontario, and the shores of the upper St Lawrence River. Freshwater marshes are also common and extensive in the RED RIVER deltas of Manitoba and in the Peace-Athabasca River delta of northern Alberta.
The prairie pothole region of central North America is a vast area dotted with countless sloughs, ponds and lakes and with abundant marsh vegetation, and the region serves as the most important WATERFOWL nesting area on the continent. About 750 000 km2 of this kind of habitat occurs in Canada across southern Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta.
Saltwater marshes are restricted to temperate regions. In North America, they are found mainly along the southern and eastern coastlines from the Gulf of Mexico states to the Maritime provinces. TANTRAMAR MARSH, near Aulac, NB, is a historically famous and important saltwater marsh. Others of particular importance in Canada are found at Kamouraska, in Québec, along the broad low coastline of Hudson Bay and James Bay, and at the Fraser River estuary in British Columbia. In western North America, numerous inland saltwater marshes fringe the shores of saltwater lakes (the remnants of ancient seas) and alkali ponds.
Bogs are poorly drained, peat-filled depressions dominated by sphagnum MOSSES, evergreen shrubs of the heather family and conifers such as black SPRUCE and LARCH. The water table, at or near the surface of the living moss layer, may be visible as open pools of water. The extensive cover of sphagnum mosses makes bog waters acidic, preventing the growth of many micro-organisms.
The water in bogs is low in oxygen because there is little water movement to create aeration; and bogs are also relatively cold because of the insulating effect of the surface blanket of moss. As a result, little decay occurs in the accumulating layers of organic debris, which build up as PEAT. Bogs are only one of several kinds of wetlands, called "peatlands," that develop in cool, moist, previously glaciated regions of the Northern Hemisphere.
Bogs are particularly common features of poorly drained regions of the BOREAL FORESTon the Precambrian SHIELD of northern Canada. Bogs south of the boreal forest, such as the Mer Bleue near Ottawa, are remnants of the boreal forest formed after the retreat of the ice sheets formed during the last ICE AGE. Such bogs have remained restricted to the poorly drained sites in which they were formed.
Bogs are also common features in most of Atlantic Canada. They are abundant in Newfoundland. In Nova Scotia they are found from near sea level on Briar Island at the western tip of the province to the heights of the Cape Breton Highlands.
In countries such as Ireland, dried peat has traditionally been used as fuel. Peat moss is also used extensively as a soil conditioner; peat harvesting for this purpose is readily evident along the Trans-Canada Highway in parts of the Gaspé Peninsula of Québec.

Monkey killed by man during theft try, official says
BOISE, Idaho (AP) — A 22-year-old man clubbed a monkey to death with a tree branch, after he was bitten by the animal while trying to steal it from a Boise zoo, prosecutors allege.
Michael J. Watkins entered Zoo Boise on Saturday morning, manipulated a lock to get into the primate enclosure and removed the patas monkey by wrapping it in his jacket, Ada County Deputy Prosecutor Fafa Alidjani told reporters after Watkins was arraigned in Boise's 4th District Court.
"He told police he was going to throw the monkey outside the fence," Alidjani said Wednesday. When he failed, the monkey bit him, prompting Watkins to use a tree branch to bash the monkey in the head and neck, she said.
A security guard spotted the intruder, who ran, and the animal died a short time after it was found by zoo officials.
Watkins isn't scheduled to enter a plea on his felony burglary and grand theft charges until a preliminary hearing Dec. 5.
If he's convicted, Watkins faces up to 10 years in prison for the burglary charge and 14 years in prison for the grand theft charge. Idaho law allows prosecutors to bring a grand theft charge against someone accused of killing livestock or other animals valued at more than $150 dollars.
Judge Henry Boomer refused a bid by Watkins' public defender, Gary Reedy, to reduce bail from $150,000 to $10,000.
Alidjani had argued that the bail shouldn't be reduced because Watkins has a history of drug and drunken driving arrests and probation violations.
"Say no more," Boomer told her. "I'm denying the request."
Boise Police Chief Mike Masterson has said he doesn't expect others to be charged in the case, but Watkins' lawyer suggested to the judge that at least one other individual entered the zoo with Watkins. Continued...
"They opened a door and the monkey was released," Reedy said, using "they" repeatedly. "There was a scuffle. The monkey was injured."
Watkins broke into the zoo after a night of grief-fueled drinking, Reedy said: An aunt had recently died, and Watkins' grandmother had been diagnosed with cancer only days before. So he went into Boise for a night out with friends and family.
"He was taking it very hard," Reedy said. "He became intoxicated."
Watkins, who over the grainy courthouse video system used for arraignments appeared to have a bandage on his right hand, spoke clearly when Boomer questioned him about his ability to pay for an attorney.
He told the judge he didn't own property or a car and had left a job working at a Progresso Soup factory in the region about a month ago, though he was due to begin work at another factory job two days after the zoo incident.
"I was a general laborer," he said, describing his work at the soup factory. "I bagged onions."
Watkins' girlfriend gave birth to his son about four weeks ago.
Watkins' stepmother, Susan Watkins, told the Idaho Statesman on Tuesday that he did well at Fruitland High School before graduating in 2008, even volunteering to help children in the summer.
"He was a good kid. He's my baby. I love him," she said.
His father, Jerry Watkins, said he can't believe his son entered the zoo wanting to do the monkey harm. Continued...
"He's not a malicious monkey murderer," Watkins said. "I'm thinking the monkey attacked him and he just tried to defend himself. I don't think he ever intended to kill it; he's just not that kind of guy."

Haha. There was another sub who set a microwave on fire in my history class. She was warming up a doughnut! Who warms up a doughnut? And in a microwave? Then, she threw her big-gulp soda from seven-eleven on it to put it out. So, not only was my history teacher's microwave sent on fire, but it was very sticky with seven-up spilt in it. She was a total wack-job. lol.

live4softball on 3/8/2009 7:25:24 PM
Haha, we used to do that to this one substitute. She only subbed for my teacher once. But when she did, she told me "Shh.." at least 4 times every ten minutes. I wouldn't even be saying a word. It annoyed the heck out of me, so we started calling her "mrs. Shh". I saw her a lot outside of school (unfortunately enough), so every time I would pass by here I would quietly whisper "Shh..". It's quite humorous actually, at the time it was funnier.

Yeah, distraction. lol. Cool for the American, Irish, n English thing. My sister's friend is Scottish, and she still has the accent and stuff. I think it's kinda cool having an accent. Oh, that didn't really relate to the Irish thing and all, but when I think of Ireland, Scotland always comes to mind- IDK why, guess I'm just weird like that. I'm so going to travel to Europe one day! I want to see all the things they have, and I really want to go to at least a few different countries. I know I want to go to London (I know, that's a city), everybody says it's really cool. Sorry, again, that was slightly skewered from the main topic, I'm really off-topic today. Cool, talk L8R
