That is really cool Peter! My dad the Sharks fan is coming up next weekend ~ he grew up in Detroit but has lived in CA for 40 years -- he said he couldn't even watch the series between the Red Wings & Sharks...Going to be 28C here today... yay! Summer weather !!
Thank you for your compliments AJ and Calesta. However, the way the Canadiens are playing now, it is currently 3-0 for Philadelphia with 5:39 left in the third period, I wonder if there will be any partying come Thursday.
We are hoping for a hockey miracle!! I'd hate to see Chris Pronger make it to the Stanley Cup finals....We are also off to my brother and sister in law's house for the long weekend mostly so my sister in law and I can watch the Lost finale together - we usually text back & forth but decided we needed to be together for this one....
Well, I took my impending hockey heartbreak to Quebec City for the long weeknd. And OMG! What a lovely beautiful, clean city and friendly, friendly people....it's pretty bad it took me so long to get there when it's the capital of my province.We drove up on the 20 which was incredibly scenic, and back on the 40 which wasn't so much, but it had plenty of Tim stops so it was just as good really ;) The last few weeks we're trying to get out and explore the province - it's been fun - apart from hubby driving over a baby mountain by a single track dirt road.He agrees with me now that if ATV's are the only things you see coming towards you it's a clear sign to turn the car around while you still can!
That sounds wonderful AJ. I would love to get to Quebec City one of these days. I was just looking at some pictures of it today on the board next to the French classroom at my son's school.We had an awesome field trip today to a big farm south of the city. Would have been amazing if it weren't for the SNOW. It was like a bloody blizzard down there. So as cool as the trip was we couldn't help but talk about how amazing it would have been if it was sunny and dry. *sigh* I want to move.
It really was lovely in Quebec City Calesta, I really do recommend it.I saw the pictures of your snow on our local CTV news - it really came down didn't it?We've got completely the opposite problem here - my town is under a complete water ban and there are some very big forest fires - not near me though, but it's awful to watch all the interviews of the people who are affected.I went shopping for summer colthes today, who in god's name is a size 0 - shouldn't you be invisible at that size? - completely depressing. Still, I did manage to find a couple of skirts and tops so - yay.
My oldest wears size 0. Is it wrong to be jealous of your children? Not only does she wear size 0, but she's naturally well-endowed (30D). It is so unfair!!!!
*flops in a chair*Just when I think I understand hockey, Halak gets traded.......I'm seriously in need of a hockey fan coaching!!!!!Also, FIFA 2010 is eating my life - I think I may be the only english person who feels sorry for Woods. Put it this way, I haven't found one yet, but I do know quite a few Americans who have a soft spot for him! :DThere's been some really good games. I do enjoy football
AJ, you are not the only who does not understand why Halak was traded. It is an absolutely wrong, stupid, bone-headed decision. I mean, what was Gauthier thinking of????!!!!!???? This kind of decision goes against all logic. It is completely irrational!!! Our GM just turned the Canadiens from a team that would have won the Stanley Cup next season, into a team whose next playoff run will be in 2016!!!! In addition, Gauthier has alienated the entire city of Montreal!!!! Its citizens, its media, everyone overwhelmingly thinks this trade is nuts!!About the only winners in this are the St. Louis Blues. With Halak as their starter, they will make the playoffs next season, something they did not do this year. Also, look for them to take out Chicago in the 2011 NHL playoffs, in either the quarter-finals, or semi-finals.P.S. I have been following the soccer also. I am participating in a World Cup pool at work, so I do want to know what is going on. My office cafeteria also has a flat screen TV, so I always get a few minutes each morning when I come in, to check out the soccer before I start work.
Peter, I suppose we will only really know if the decision regarding Halak is good or bad next season. Most people I know thought Price was the one who would go. It seems a strange decision right now though!As for the soccer - It looks like the European teams are stuggling. Well apart from Portugal. Team France seems to be falling apart quite spectacularly and England after that last fiasco seem to be scared of the ball - bit of a problem that....I can see England and France refusing to let their teams back in their countries - at least that would be entertaining!! ;DSpain - I'm not too sure whats happening there although the game today was better but you expect them to win against Honduras and Italy, what can we say there?I still aren't sure how the Dutch beat Cameroon - Cameroon seemed to have the ball the majority of the time, but couldn't find the net. It will be interesting to see what happens in the next couple of weeks.
My son has started watching much of the world cup - not a sport my family has been into (its not hockey...) but his school is quite multicultural & it seems to have rubbed off on him.I am taking him to the Star Wars concert on Saturday to celebrate his first year at the new school (was a HUGE transition for all of us... and yay! we not only survived but he thrived there). In another proud moment he asked if he could wear his clone trooper costume (no prompting from me). He's a geek! I love it.
You are so lucky to have your kids still young and at home. I'm missing mine dearly as he took off for Victoria a couple of months back when school ended. Wanted to be with the girlfriend. I'm just thankful she lived in Vic and not some far off country. *sigh*However, I DO have his xbox for the summer. :)

That is so cute!!!Could I adopt him?! ;) My two would only dress up in the house and at halloween. @Jen - I've not quite got to the actual girlfriend stage yet - although there has been chrushes and a couple of hopeful young ladies........It's good he left you his Xbox - I can't get near the Play Station 3 these days. I hope he has fun and you don't miss him too much. I went to my youngest's primary school graduation today. Can you believe it? He was in preschool when I first found the Shadowmarch site. Now he is as tall as me!His yearbook is a CD, so we're now going to look at it.
Why do they have to grow up so fast? And why do I think its not fast enough at other times??We went to see Toy Story 3 last week & yes, that was me, crying and crying!! My family laughed at me...
I totally understand Calesta.I think that on the whole time does go too fast. And seriously, in the graduate gown and hat he looks sixteen - they all did! I honestly had one of those moments this week at the grad party one of his friends mum & dad threw , when I felt I had blinked and missed my youngest suddenly growning up. We all just looked at our sons who were swimming in the rain and they'd stopped to pose and wave at us, and and one mum said ' look at the young men our boys are becoming' and with that 11 mums were all teary and hugging each other, while the dads hurried to check the barbeque and the contents of the cooler! It was one of those days, the group are splitting to three different schools while two are heading to different provinces, and realistically it's probably the last time all the boys will get together in one big group. It was a bit bittersweet, to be honest.
*hugs AJ*hard to see them grow up and break up a good group of people! I felt that way at the end of hockey season this year - william was beside himself when he had to say goodbye to some of his teammates...We've been wasting the first part of our summer playing Lego Harry Potter. I kind of like when I don't have to send them to school!
I remember those days...it's one of the hardest things about going back to work, leaving the boys to amuse themselves (although my husband works from home so they aren't alone) however even if I was home I don't suppose they'd want me playing with them now!!!I used to love lego :DI'm campaigning for my youngest to read the Harry Potter books himself...he's just finished the Percy Jackson series and the french series Amos Daragon so I think he might.My eldest is a voracious reader, his brother not so much...
My daughter read up to the Order of the Phoenix and then she stopped, wonder if I can get her to pick it up again this summer?Will and I finished the Lego Harry Potter game - now we have to wait 'til October for Part II*waits**fidgets*Am also fidgety because we are headed out on our summer road trip at the end of the month - Yellowstone, Grande Tetons & lots of shopping days in Montana. I want to leave now!!*fidgets*And also, stupidly, before we have even finished the above vacation, we have booked 2 weeks in Orlando next spring 9 months away.... but I am going to Hogwarts!!!!*waits**fidgets*
I would love to go to Yellowstone! I will love to hear all about the trip!I would also love to go back to Greece (where my sister is right now) and Spain (where my brother is going), and New Zealand (where my friends are off to). Unfortunately there is no vacation away for me this year......although I could certainly use one!!!There's a lot of love for the planet in this post......*grin*
Yellowstone was awesome! not sure what I was expecting but it was so very cool. We really didn't go off the beaten path or anything, but still enjoyed it immensely. Our drive down through Grand Teton Nat'l park was similarly awe inspiring. We did the scenic float trip down the Snake River & in general brought home a ton of great family road trip memories!Now we're back to reality aka the arena! Will has hockey camp this week & Juli goes to ringette next week so the family has been brushing up on our skating. Blah. I am not ready for a return to school and hockey schedules!
Calesta - you're going to be in Orlando next Spring? Perhaps I can arrange to be at Disney at the same time!
Oh wow! I'm so glad you had a fantastic time in Yellowstone! We'd love to do that trip, although I'm saving at present for the trip to Germany, driving from Berlin to Calais in France then crossing to the UK for a week before heading back to Canada. Hopefully we'll get there within the next couple of years.

I know, except in this house it's swimming and Karate. Which reminds me, my youngest just hit thirteen so he can start his bronze medal if I can find somewhere close that does it. At the moment, my shortest drive is 1 hour and I don't fancy that in the depths of winter. I'm such a wuss!!!
Don't forget to let us smarchers know about the plans, cause if you hop the pond, we'll make time (and trips) for a smarch meet!
@ Em ~ PM!! @ AJ ~ that sounds like an amazing trip! I put the bug in Mr Calesta's ear about going to Italy for our 20th anniversary (2013) and I think he took the bait! We'll wait & see I guess....I just got my kids back after they spent a week with their relatives in Northern Alberta. It was so nice to have the break - I'm recharged & ready to go for a few more months anyway. Now I am on a job search, have to find something part time to help make those ends get a little closer together if I can't get them to meet.

The stakes were high for President Obama going into the second presidential debate. His lackluster performance in round one upset many of his supporters and gave Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney the boost his campaign needed.
The president was criticized for holding back in the first debate. But Tuesday night, he did not shy away from directly attacking his opponent. The candidates on everything from the auto industry bailout to immigration to Romney's jobs plan and access to contraception for women.
"The president wants to do well, I understand, but the policies he's put in place, from Obamacare to Dodd-Frank to his tax policies to his regulatory policies, these policies combined have not let this economy take off and grow like it could have," Romney said.
"If somebody came to you, Governor, with a plan that said, 'Here, I want to spend $7 or $8 trillion, and then we're going to pay for it, but we can't tell you until maybe after the election,' How we're going to do it?" said Obama. "You wouldn't take such a sketchy deal and neither should you, the American people, because the math doesn't add up."
The intense level of engagement between the candidates was markedly different from what we saw in the first debate, in part because they could actually walk around the debate space freely.
Both candidates sparred throughout the evening. Romney hammered the president on the national deficit, using it to punch back at Obama when he attacked Romney's budget and tax plans.
"When we are talking about math, that doesn't add up. How about four trillion dollars in deficits over the last four years, five trillion? That's math that doesn't add up," said Romney. "We have a president talking about someone's plan in a way that is completely foreign to what my real plan is. And then we have his own record."
President Obama also accused Mitt Romney of shifting his position on the coal industry.
"When I hear Governor Romney say he is a big coal guy, and keep in mind, Governor, when you were governor of Massachusetts, you stood in front of a coal plant and pointed at it and said 'this plant kills' and took great pride in shutting it down," Obama said. "And now suddenly, you're a big champion of coal."
On Tuesday night, no one steered clear of tough fights. But whether the president's performance was strong enough to erase his first-debate slump remains to be seen. The candidates have one final debate. It will be held on Monday.

Series: "And God Saw That It Was Good": Death and Pain in the Created Order
The tension generated by our understanding of God's character, as revealed in the Bible, and by the reality of the natural world around us has been the focus of much debate within the Christian church since the first century. This series examines critically several of the proposed solutions to this problem, viewing them from the perspective of a geologist, paleontologist, and orthodox evangelical Christian.
Series: Southern Baptist Voices: Evolution and Death
This exchange brings together related essays on death in light of evolution and Scripture from Southern Baptist theologian Dr. John Laing. Laing argues that evolutionary theory requires death to play a central role in the creation of new life, but sees Scripture depicting death only "as an invader, disturber of peace, and a force of evil." A BioLogos response is given by Dr. Jeff Schloss.
Word Games
"Why would the omnipotent Creator of the universe use such a wasteful (and cruel) process of survival of the fittest to bring about the higher forms of life? This view of 'theistic evolution' goes against God's very nature -- and logic itself."

Mariah Carey stole the spotlight from Santa Claus while pre-taping her performances at the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Lighting in NYC on Tuesday. Despite the Big Apple's frigid temperatures that night, the 42-year-old songstress sported two very revealing dresses, but somehow looked perfectly comfortable! Plus, Kate Middleton debuted her new haircut to the world at the opening of the Natural History Museum's new Treasures Gallery in London, and Selena Gomez was all smiles at the UNICEF Snowflake Ball in New York City.

Magazine Publishers in Rahway, NJ
Helpful Definition for: Magazine Publishers
Publishing, in Rahway, is all about making and distributing information available in different forms. In olden days, publishing was only related to publishing books and newspapers, however, the term 'publishing' has a broader meaning in the modern world. Publishing, nowadays, involves copy-editing, graphic design, production development and acquisition. The same is then advertised and distributed among the public. Publishing includes academic publishing, directory publishing, periodical publishing, newspaper publishing and book publishing. Over the years, there have been radical changes in the publishing industry in terms of technology and sophistication.
Magazines can be of various types such as Sports magazines, Art magazines, Science magazines, News magazines, etc. The responsibility of a magazine publisher is critical as he or she is expected to take care of the publishing from initial stage of information gathering to final publishing. Magazine publishers may not be involved in all the stages of publishing; however, he is responsible to check that the work is executed appropriately by the individuals involved at every stage of publishing. The duties also include and extend to the responsibility of drawing revenue. A magazine publisher needs to determine the cost involved and also determines the maximum profit that can be gained. Along with all these responsibilities he is required to hire staff to whom he can delegate the duties of publishing in each stage. A good publisher is one who can make optimum utilization of the resources available to generate maximum profit. Rahway boasts some of the best magazine publishers in the Unites States.

Former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum has been the hot story in the GOP presidential contest this month. Over the weekend, Santorum raised eyebrows with comments on public education, prenatal testing and what he called President Obama's "phony theology." Santorum was making waves just days ahead of the next Republican debate on Wednesday, and the next primaries in Michigan and Arizona six days later.

Funding and know-how from the bank that knows the sector best
03 Energy & Climate
For a transition from a carbon-based economy to a sustainable economy, it's essential to reduce energy demand, to use energy as efficiently as possible, and to invest massively in renewable energy systems, while switching to low carbon fuels.

The amount of CO2 emissions that are avoided by the projects funded by Triodos Bank per year
Our current energy consumption causes huge environmental damage: we're burning resources that belong to future generations
If the temperature of planet earth increases by this amount or more, climate change will have potentially catastrophic results
To limit the global temperature increase to 2 C, our carbon output needs to stay below 450 ppm (parts per million). Triodos Bank even advocates decreasing output back below 350 ppm
The total amount of wind, solar, hydro and biomass power production capacity currently funded by Triodos Bank
All the crises the world faces - energy, climate, food, financial - are connected. Fighting one means fighting them all
By the end of 2011 Triodos Bank, and its climate and energy funds financed over 360 renewables projects across Europe, including 204 wind farms, 131 solar plants and various small biomass and hydro projects
The amount of renewable energy produced by the projects financed by Triodos Bank is equivalent to the electricity use of around 1,500,000 European households
Introduction of the Dutch green fiscal regime, driven by Triodos, that promotes tax advantaged investment through Green Funds into green projects
Triodos Bank has over 25 years of experience financing renewable energy

Triodos Bank in action
We're working to reduce our own CO2 emissions in a variety of ways. First, by reducing energy consumption wherever possible - for example, by printing less and cutting down on business travel.
Our new office buildings are designed and constructed using carefully selected sustainable materials and the most energy-efficient lighting, heating and cooling technologies. We use electricity from renewable energy sources only.
For our buildings in the Netherlands, some of this energy comes from wind farms financed by the Bank. Our remaining CO2 emissions from natural gas consumption, paper consumption, business travel and commuting are compensated.

Citizens on Patrol for Safer Streets
By: Jennifer Lee
Updated: February 8, 2013
HAGERSTOWN, MD - They're not in uniform, and not graduates of the Police Academy, but they're sharp when it comes to patrolling the streets.
"It's a force multiplier for the Police Department where it allows our police officers to be freed up to respond to other cars for service yet still provide a level of safety to the community and to the neighborhood," says Chief Mark Holtzman, Hagerstown Police Department.
They gather twice a week, working as extra eyes and ears, as Citizens on Patrol.
"A lot of times we're notified of places we have problems and we'll check those." says Paul, Citizens on Patrol.
"We have scanners, and we also have radios we can hear everything that's going on and there is a button that we can push if we need a help right away or if we see something," says Carol Hans, Citizens on Patrol.
Throughout the night, these residents will patrol the streets and make sure there's nothing going on around business establishments and other police hot spots.
On this particular night, they were called to a scene of an accident to help with traffic.
"As we check those spots, we put it down on the log sheet. The place, the time and if it clears then we put everything was ok," says Kay, Citizen on Patrol.
But when it's not ok, they immediately notify police, working together as a team for a safer community.

The buzz is, Missy Franklin could win up to seven medals if she makes it to London this summer.
But the 16-year-old swimmer's Olympic hopes have nothing to do with a medal count.
"Honestly, the one thing I want to do is make my country proud," Franklin said, telling Matt Lauer on TODAY Wednesday she doesn't pay attention to the rising-star chatter. "I love what I do and I have fun with it, and that's the most important part."
Nicknamed "The Missile,'' Franklin may be headed straight for the medal stand in London in her first Olympics. But the 16-year-old swimming star from Centennial, Colo., has also done her best to enjoy being a teenager. She attended her junior prom, took her ACTs and got her driver's license — all while preparing for the Olympic trials in Omaha, Neb., from June 25-July 2.
An effervescent teenager who still swims with her high school team when possible, Franklin has the potential to capture the world's imagination much in the way Michael Phelps did in Beijing.
Video: Olympic hopefuls arrive on the plaza
"It's super hard,'' she told Lauer about balancing her life with training. "My teachers work with me, my friends always get my work when I'm away, my family is so supportive, and they always take the time to help me whenever I need it.''
With no sponsors and no agent, Franklin is determined to retain her amateur status so she can swim in college, turning down nearly $150,000 in prize money and three endorsement deals.
"Swimming in college is something that I've always dreamed about,'' she said. "Just hearing about the college experience and seeing what it's done for athletes is something that I've always wanted to do and something that I am so looking forward to. I want to be able to enjoy that experience.''
Video: 'Raise Our Flag' to support U.S. Olympians
Comparisons to Phelps, the most accomplished Olympian of all time, are no accident: At the Shanghai world championships in August, Franklin won gold medals in the 200 backstroke, 4x200 freestyle relay and 4x100 medley relay, a silver in the 4x100 freestyle relay and a bronze in the 50 backstroke.
Franklin "reminded me of me as a 15-year-old," Phelps told the Washington Post after her performance in Shanghai. "She's probably one of the best female swimmers I've ever seen. She can do anything."
"I really exceeded my expectations at Worlds," Franklin said. "It was such an incredible meet, I had so much fun and I learned so much. So getting all that experience under my belt, I think, that's going to be really great for this summer.''
In October, swimming in a FINA Swimming World Cup event, Franklin set a world record in the short-course 200-meter backstroke. She qualified in nine of the 13 events at the Olympic trials. She and her coach, Todd Schmitz, will determine which ones she will swim shortly before the meet in Omaha.
Video: Sneak peek at Olympic fashion
In 2008 at age 13, Franklin swam in the Olympic trials, coming up short of qualifying for Beijing but gaining valuable experience with an eye toward 2012. That's when her dad gave her the nickname, and "The Missile" has stuck: She has a pair of custom-made Nikes emblazoned with it.
"It was unbelievable,'' she said about the 2008 trials. "I had probably swam in front of a few hundred people at most before, and I walk into Omaha and I'm swimming in front of 7 to 8,000 in prelims, and it was just absolutely incredible.''
As a 14-year-old freshman at Regis Jesuit High School in Aurora, Colo., she was the youngest athlete to make a U.S. senior team that included Phelps and fellow star Ryan Lochte and competed in Manchester, England.
Like Phelps, she has a combination of work ethic, natural talent and a body specifically suited for swimming. Standing 6-foot-1 with a wingspan of 6-foot-4, she has size 13 feet that act like flippers and hands big enough to palm a basketball.
Video: 1948 Olympians remember the last London games
She started swim lessons at just six months old because her mother, D.A. Franklin, grew up afraid of the water and did not want her daughter to experience the same fear. The high altitude of Franklin's home state helps athletes develop endurance better than training at sea level because it forces the body to produce more oxygen-rich red blood cells.
"She has all the physical attributes . . . (and) flexibility and beautiful technique because of that," Bob Bowman, Phelps's coach, told The Washington Post. "She has good proportion, the way her body is laid out . . . She's the closest thing to Michael (that I've seen). I don't want to curse her with that."

John Tortorella should consider commercials for Samsonite because nobody carried more baggage into a second meeting with the Vancouver Canucks than the fiery bench boss. Then again, the former New York Rangers coach made such an impression as a possible successor to the fired Alain Vigneault in his first face-to-face, that he's been granted another audience to convince ownership and management he can temper his approach in a hockey-mad market where every coaching decision is picked over like vultures on a carcass.

By RACHEL C. DOVE
Staff Writer
WILLIAMSON - Kim Chapman, office clerk of the Daily News had a shock on Monday while opening the mail.
After unfolding a hand-written letter that had been mailed in a plain envelope without a return address or sender's name, she discovered a small, plastic, sealed baggie measuring approximately 2 inches in diameter that contained an off-white colored, powdery substance.
"I've opened a lot of mail here, and on occasion we receive some strange correspondences, but never before had I experienced anything like that," said Chapman.
She immediately alerted the editorial staff, who contacted Patrolman Darry Paige with the Williamson City Police Department, and also the Williamson Detachment of the West Virginia State Police.
"We had no idea what the powder was, and we didn't want to take any chances with it," said Chapman.
The letter claimed to be from a concerned mother in Williamson who stated that a female (whose name will remain anonymous) had sold her son the enclosed drugs at the Mingo Central High School. She wanted a story written and, ultimately, the alleged drug dealer arrested.
Upon arrival, Paige examined the letter and the plastic bag filled with powder, and decided to take them to WVSP Sgt. J.C. Dotson, since the letter stated the alleged drugs had originated from a seller in Chattaroy and were reportedly sold at Mingo Central.
"Those two locations are out of city limits, so I elected to turn the investigation over to the state police," said Paige.
Sgt. Dotson later contacted the Daily News, and said that he had tested the powder for cocaine and methamphetamines. It was negative for both.
He further said that due to the fizzing and foaming the substance created during testing, he believed it to most likely be either baking soda or baking powder.
Although the powder was not an illegal drug substance, Dotson remarked that it should not have been sent through the mail.
"First of all, if the letter's content is legit, and the mother did in fact believe the powder was illegal drugs, she should have known that it is a criminal offense to mail drugs," said Dotson. "Secondly, if this was a grudge tactic against another person that he or she was trying to cause problems or possibly have them investigated for selling drugs without any merit behind the claim, that could also lead to problems.
"You can be charged with providing false information, and the person who is the target of the accusations can file a complaint of slander and defamation of character.
"The right thing would have been for the sender to have turned this over to law enforcement if she truly believed the powder to be an illegal drug."
Dotson stressed the importance of contacting police immediately when an occasion like this occurs, and said that it's better to report the issue and have it turn out to be nothing instead of assuming it is a joke or a prank and then find out the substance was harmful.
"We will look into this case, to see if there's any truth in the content of the letter," said Dotson.
If anyone has information regarding the letter mailed to the Daily News, they are asked to contact Sgt. J.C. Dotson with the Williamson Detachment of the WVSP by calling 304-235-6000.

When I'm really in pain, I use this for sleep relief and add the "J" shaped contour pillow. It really gives you the support you need. However, I can't sleep on this all night. I usually toss it out after a few hours but only once relieved of pain! It is a must own!
(Posted on 4/4/13)
I tried this lumber support on several beds. If the bed was firm then I found this support too thick. However, on a very soft bed it reduces my morning back soreness. My only issue is that it can move around at night so I often end up adjusting the position when I wake up in the middle of the night.
(Posted on 5/1/12)
I have slept on my mom's couch during the holidays for several years. The couch is not very firm and it's always hard to get comfortable. I always wind up with a back ache in the morning. She asked me to try this lumbar pad this year and I noticed immediately that I could get comfortable without moving around. In the morning there was no stiffness or back pain. It's hard to believe that this pad could make that much difference, but it does! I will be purchasing one of my own for traveling.
(Posted on 11/25/10)
Love this pillow. I am just now replacing my old worn out one that lasted probably 10 years. Couldn't sleep without it. It has relieved so much back pain and has helped with circulation and relieving pain in my legs as well. I have suffered from fibromyalgia for 13 1/2 years now. I also use it as a seat/back cushion when I am at my computer and I take it with me on long car rides. Thanks Relax The Back!!!

Lions general manager Martin Mayhew says negotiations between the team and kicker Jason Hanson (middle) continue. (Daniel Mears/Detroit News)
Phoenix — Martin Mayhew said Monday that while there still were some free agents he was pursuing, most of the heavy lifting was done.
"Yeah, I think in terms of those big contracts, I think they're starting to wind down from a free agency standpoint," Mayhew said, taking a lunch break during the league meetings. "We got the draft coming up and we've got some of our own guys who we're trying to sign."
Mayhew acknowledged negotiations continue with veteran kicker Jason Hanson and possibly defensive end Lawrence Jackson.
"There will be some other signings, I would think," he said. "And then obviously after the draft we have a period of time to continue to try to add to our roster and look for guys whether it's signing free agents or street free agents or trades, whatever the possibilities are."
The team was believed to be tight against the cap, but according to a Yahoo Sports report, wide receiver Calvin Johnson restructured his contract to save the team another $3.4 million. According to the report, he transferred the bulk of his $25 million base into a bonus, lowering his cap hit.
"We've got some challenges from a cap standpoint, but we have some flexibility to do some things, make some moves," Mayhew said.
Mayhew made it clear, though, that the inability to work a contract extension for quarterback Matthew Stafford was not hampering the process. Mayhew said there was no expectation a deal would get done before free agency.
"No, not at all," he said. "I talked to you guys before about that being a process. As I said before, the contracts for the good players are more difficult to do. For the players that aren't good, you just tell them what you plan on paying them. That's the way it goes, but I'm not at all disappointed.
"It's going to be a process to get that done, and we're working on getting that done right now."
When told fans were voicing their displeasure with Stafford for not doing a deal, Mayhew defended him.
"We've been very deliberate in the process," Mayhew said. "We haven't been pressing him. There's never been a sense of extreme urgency on our part that we had to rush and get something done. He's by no means putting the brakes on.
"It's just a process, and it's a negotiation process back and forth. There's nothing out of the ordinary about it. There's nothing about the time table that is surprising or disappointing."
Monday was the first time Mayhew spoke publicly about signing $83 million worth of free agents last week — running back Reggie Bush, safety Glover Quin, defensive end Jason Jones, cornerback Chris Houston and safety Louis Delmas.
He admitted feeling the heat.
"Let me just say this, when you win four games, you better have a sense of urgency about it," he said. "Certainly I have a great sense of urgency this offseason, but I wouldn't characterize it as not having a sense of urgency last offseason. I just think we came into it with a great sense of urgency about getting better."
Although the team did fly a private jet to New York to pick up Bush, Mayhew said the sales pitch was plain and direct.
"It was a great effort across the board by the organization," he said. "Matthew Stafford was a part of it. The coaching staff took time out to spend time with (Bush), selling him on what our organization is, selling him on how we could use him. It was attractive to him.
"Same with Glover. He's excited about the opportunity. I talked to him about how we can use him as a player.
"Jason Jones, too, and you look at our current guys who wanted to come back, too, like Chris Houston. So we are comfortable we're moving in the right direction. Those guys committing to us is a sign of that."
There are still holes, as Mayhew said, on the defensive line and receiver, most notably.
Some will be filled through the draft and Mayhew hinted others could be filled through trades.
""At this point, there are a lot of guys whose markets are kind of settling in," Mayhew said. "I believe some guys had some higher expectations. We're staying in contact with agents of players who are currently out there that we think can help us. There are players out there that can help us.
"There's going to be someone out there on the street right now or free agent who's going to be starting and playing a major role for a team. We're trying to find those guys."

Please excuse the half-red hair! They had crazy hair day at school on Friday. Ummmm, yah… the homemade colored hair gel hasn't washed all the way out yet! Yikes!
I added a little applique onto the front of each pocket to add a little more interest…I love the final outcome
I used regular quilting cotton for the exterior and soft, buttery sweatshirt fabric for the interior. The sweatshirt fabric makes the hoodie a nice, cozy weight to wear when it's chilly outside, but light enough for a cool spring day.
So get crackin'! The pattern is delivered right to your computer via PDF, all you have to do is pick out the fabric {or enlist your punk to do it!}.
The instructions are very detailed with pictures of EVERY step, so even beginning sewers have nothing to worry about. The zipper was a snap to install too. I think it has something to do with being able to completely seperate it and then install on each side, without it having to be zipped.
One of my boys {the one that apparently likes trout} said that everyone at school was asking them about their hoodies...Here's how the conversation went:
Blake: At school today, everyone was asking about my hoodie.
Me: Really? That's cool.
Blake: They wanted to know where we got 'em.
Me: Oh yah? What did you say?
Blake: I said we got em at a store
{Yes, I have a comedian for a son}

LITCHFIELD >> During the public requests session of Tuesday night's Board of Selectmen meeting, the question was raised whether the public bathrooms in Litchfield should be open year-round. These bathrooms, which are open to public use for nine months of the year, are locked during the winter.
The bathrooms are located in the rear municipal lot behind the West Street buildings. The cost of keeping them open for the three months in question – January, February and March – is $2,000. Of that cost, $800 would be spent on electricity and another $1,200 on cleaning and supplies, according to Litchfield public works director Jack Healy.
"They're designed for being open 12 months a year," Litchfield resident Thomas Battiste said. "I think you're doing a disjustice to the visitors and the patrons in this town."
First Selectman Leo Paul was in office when the bathrooms were first installed and said that this has never been a controversial issue. Battiste's was one of only two complaints.
The decision to close down these public restrooms for the three winter months came last December as a way to conserve funds. Paul said that they didn't think these bathrooms were used all that frequently during the winter months.
"With one or two people at this point, I don't think it warrants the cost of that," Selectman Paul Parsons said. "Obviously, we've had other bathroom facilities where we've had many, many people tell us of the need for that and we did address it. I guess our ears are open and at this point I don't see us spending that money unless (more people speak out)."
Selectman Diane Knox said that they should think about opening these bathrooms, since for most businesses January tends to be slow, but things begin picking up in February and March.
"I don't think a lot of businesses are very happy to let people come in and use their bathrooms and walk out the door," Knox said. "So, we have to address that tourist issue and we do have buses that come in and people walk around the perimeter of the town and take in the sights and where do they go?"
Jeffrey Zullo, also a selectman, brought up the idea of approaching the Litchfield Area Business Association (LABA) and seeing if they would be interested in funding the operating costs of these bathrooms for the winter months in order to benefit their business.
"People stay in town, they shop here, they don't use their facilities," Zullo said. Continued...
Paul said he has no problem approaching LABA about this. In the meantime, those looking for a change on this issue are just going to have to hold it.

Crowdfunding: Tapping the Right CrowdPaul BelleflammeCORE and Louvain School of Management, UCL (Université Catholique de Louvain); CESifo (Center for Economic Studies and Ifo Institute for Economic Research) Thomas LambertUniversité catholique de Louvain - Department of Finance Armin SchwienbacherUniv. Lille Nord de France - SKEMA Business School April 25, 2012 CORE Discussion Paper No. 2011/32 Abstract: The basic idea of crowdfunding is for an entrepreneur to raise external finance from a large audience (the "crowd"), where each individual provides a very small amount, instead of soliciting a small group of sophisticated investors. The entrepreneur uses her social networks and established platforms on the Internet to directly interact with the crowd. The paper compares two different forms of crowdfunding: individuals are offered either to pre-order the product, or to advance a fixed amount of money in exchange for a share of future profits. In either case, "crowdfunders" are rewarded by "community benefits" that increase their utility. Using a unified model, we show that the entrepreneur prefers pre-ordering if the initial capital requirement is relatively small, and profit-sharing otherwise. Our conclusions have implications for managerial decisions in the early development stage of firms, since the entrepreneur needs to build a community of individuals with whom she must interact.

Probiotic Action gives parents advice on how to help teens cope with acne and depression.
Miami, FL (PRWEB) February 05, 2013
The link between depression and acne has long been debated as a "which came first, the chicken or the egg? " scenario for many suffers. Many researchers claim that excess stress on the body and mind leads the skin to harbor chemicals and bacteria to produce acne symptoms, whereas others claim acne and its treatments has caused depression. An article from CNN gave us some insight that many adolescences, some even as young as 8, have suffered from acne and depression simultaneously.
Fernando Perez sheds some insight given to parents and teens on how to battle the condition; Perez elaborates with key pointers every parent of a teen with acne should take to heart:
Perez adds that, "Seeing the right dermatologist, coupled with mental therapy could point parents and teens in the right direction. Raising children going through puberty is difficult enough for everyone, it is our duty as parents to give them the best care."
Probiotic Action is an advanced acne treatment that uses a topical probiotic containing the "good bacteria" that is naturally found on healthy human skin. By using probiotics, Probiotic Action is an effective treatment that restores the normal bacteria content on skin. Probiotic Action will successfully clear skin while protecting skin against bad bacteria, free radicals, and pollutants.

Earnings of working wives markedly lowered the incidence of poverty for all ethnic and race groups. Poverty rates for Mexican immigrant and Cuban families dropped by hefty 25- and 20-percentage points, respectively, as a result of wives' earnings. Using data from the BLS Current Population Survey, this article also concludes that the relative declines, which adjust for starting points, in poverty rates tended to fall at a faster pace for white families than for minorities.

It was ladies night at Lakewood on Thursday as both girls teams walked away with wins against visiting Wallace-Rose Hill. Both Leopard boys teams put up a good fight, but couldn't get the ball to fall in the basket.
Varsity Girls
The varsity Lady Leopards jumped out to an early lead, and by halftime they were ahead by 27 points, 40-13. The Bulldogs were shut down in the third quarter and only made 3 points to the Leopards 19.
The final score showed a 50-point difference, 73-23.
Lakewood head coach Lofton Kerr was thrilled to see Kiara Rich, a first year starter, get a hot hand. "This was Kiara's best game ever. I'm just glad everyone on the team got to play tonight. I see we need more patience on offense. Now we get to take Friday off so we can get ready for Trask next week," he said.
Leading all scorers was Leopard Kiara Rich with 20 points. She was followed by Teisha Rich, with 16; Brittney Boykin, 13; Bianca Moore, and Rashyda Parker, each with 7 points.
Junior Varsity Girls
The junior varsity girls managed to get a big lead in the first quarter, 18-8, and then showed off their defense by holding the Lady 'Dogs to just 2 points to their 11 in the second quarter. The halftime score was 29-10
The last half of the game was much of the same, with Wallace only scoring 5 more points to Lakewood's 14, for a final score of 43-15.
Leading all scorers was Justina Henry with 14 points. Tasha Stevens had 12 and Jasmine Williams, 7 points.
Coach Kerr was pleased at the strength of his defense. "Our defense was really good tonight, but the offense needs some improvement. I'm glad everyone got to play, and now we've got to get ready for Trask next week," he said.
Varsity Boys
The varsity boys game was a nail-biter up until the fourth quarter, when No. 1 Wallace took the lead for the first time and managed to hold on to it as time ran out. The Leopards lost 56-44.
They started out even and by the end of the first eight minutes were tied at 8. The second quarter was just as tense, with the back and forth battle; the teams went into the locker room with Lakewood up by 1 point, 25-24.
The Leopards managed to hold on to that 1-point lead, 36-35, going into the fourth quarter, but not for long.
An elated Bulldog coach, Robinson, was relieved to come away with the win. "This is our third game in four days, so we were a little sluggish, but they were able to turn it on when they needed to. Lakewood played really good and hard. Anytime you get a conference win, it's good," Coach Robinson stated.
Lakewood head coach Sylvester Pittman was disappointed in the loss, but saw some good, hard play by his team. "I think fatigue had a lot to do with us getting behind. We seemed to lose focus. The boys put forth a good effort against the No. 1 team (Wallace) in the conference and I'm proud of these kids. We had them on the ropes, but just couldn't finish," he explained.
Leading all scorers was Bulldog Marquel Newkirk with 18 points. Jamel Jones was one point away with 17 for the game.
Ryan Emfinger was top scorer for Lakewood with 16 points. He was followed by Mike Smith with 12; and Patrick Rich with 6 points.
JV Boys
Lakewood's junior varsity boys got a slow start in the first quarter and never recovered.
The 'Dogs were chomping at the bit from the tip off and scored 31 to the Leopards' 5 points in the first eight minutes. By intermission, Wallace was up 31 points 45-14.
Lakewood came out in the third quarter with a bit more intensity, but was never able to overcome the first half deficit. The final score was 67-48.
In analyzing the final score, Leopard head coach Pittman said, "They got a sluggish start and were never able to get it going,"
Leading all scorers was Wallace's Alex Lisane with 17 points. He was followed by Walker Imwall with 12 points.
For the Leopards, Maurice Boone was top scorer with 14 points; Willie Herring, 10; and Michael Graham with 7 points.
Lakewood will be playing at home again next Tuesday against Trask. Games begin at 4 p.m.
