A Moab man was killed March 13 in a rappelling accident at Pool Arch in the Pritchett Canyon area southwest of Moab. Zachary John Taylor, 20, died at the scene from injuries he sustained in a 120-foot fall while attempting to rappel down a rock wall just north of the arch, according to Lt. Kim Neal of the Grand County Sheriff's Office.
The accident occurred at approximately 8 p.m. after Taylor and five friends had hiked to the arch from the Pritchett Canyon trailhead. The group, all in their early 20s, planned to make the popular rappel down the rock wall then camp overnight at the arch, also known as Teardrop Arch, Neal said. The other five people in the group successfully completed the rappel, but when Taylor started down the wall an anchor on the rope system failed, Neal said. The group had anchored the rappelling ropes at the top of the climb by hooking a carabiner onto a loop of 1-inch webbing that was secured around a juniper tree using a type of knot called a "water knot," Neal said.
He said investigators said the method and equipment were "pretty standard," and all the harnesses and ropes appeared to be in good working order.
"They weren't attempting anything unusual, as I understand it," Neal said. "It was just an accident."
He said the knot tied in the webbing came undone as Taylor began his descent.
"The cause of the accident was a failure in the knot of the webbing that was used as an anchor," he said. "I can't determine exactly why it failed, just that it did."
Three members of the group hiked and ran for almost two hours to reach the trailhead, then found a nearby home where they called for help at 9:21 p.m., according to Neal. Cell phone service in the area is "sketchy," he said, noting that he was unable to find a cell phone signal while in the area that night.
Emergency personnel from Grand County Emergency Medical Services, along with Grand County Search and Rescue volunteers and sheriff's deputies responded to the scene and began hiking into the area. A medical helicopter was dispatched from St. Mary's Hospital in Grand Junction, Colo., and a Utah Department of Public Safety helicopter was also called in to provide assistance, Neal said.
Although the arch is located only a few miles from Moab, the approximately two-mile trail into the area travels through narrow rock fins and difficult ascents, making it impossible to access by vehicle, Neal said.
"There was no way to get vehicles into that location so EMS was flown in using the [Department of Public Safety] helicopter," Neal said.
Rescue personnel reached Taylor by helicopter at approximately 11 p.m., and he was pronounced dead at the scene. Officials determined it was too dangerous to attempt to remove Taylor's body at night, so a search and rescue worker stayed at the scene until the body could be recovered the following morning, Neal said.
The two friends who had stayed with Taylor while the rest sought help were taken by helicopter from the accident scene to the Pritchett Canyon trailhead, he said.
Taylor is the son of Kristin Millis and Tom Taylor, both of Moab. A funeral service will be held for Zachary Taylor on Saturday, March 23, at 1 p.m. at the Grand County High School auditorium, 264 S. 400 East. A viewing will be held on Friday, March 22 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Spanish Valley Mortuary, 386 N. 100 West.

Updated Post: What Happens To Your Body If You Drink A Coke Right Now?
Hey, Blisstree Reader! We recently updated this Coke post, and also just posted two brand-new ones: What Happens to Your Body After You Drink a Coke Every Day, For a Long Time and Drink Diet Coke For Good Health? Not So Much., which many of you commented on wanting to know more about. Read on, and check out these other new posts, below.
Have you ever wondered why Coke comes with a smile? Because it gets you high. They removed the cocaine almost 100 years ago. Why? It was redundant.
- In the first 10 minutes: 10 teaspoons of sugar hit your system. (100% of your recommended daily intake.) You don't immediately vomit from the overwhelming sweetness because phosphoric acid cuts the flavor, allowing you to keep it down.
- 20 minutes: Your blood sugar spikes, causing an insulin burst. Your liver responds to this by turning any sugar it can get its hands on into fat. (And there's plenty of that at this particular moment.)
- 40 minutes: Caffeine absorption is complete. Your pupils dilate; your blood pressure rises; as a response, your liver dumps more sugar into your bloodstream. The adenosine receptors in your brain are now blocked, preventing drowsiness.
- 45 minutes: Your body ups your dopamine production, stimulating the pleasure centers of your brain. This is physically the same way heroin works, by the way.
- > 60 minutes: The phosphoric acid binds calcium, magnesium, and zinc in your lower intestine, providing a further boost in metabolism. This is compounded by high doses of sugar and artificial sweeteners also increasing the urinary excretion of calcium.
- > 60 minutes: The caffeine's diuretic properties come into play. (It makes you have to pee.) It is now assured that you'll evacuate the bonded calcium, magnesium, and zinc that was headed to your bones as well as sodium, electrolytes, and water.
- > 60 minutes: As the rave inside you dies down, you'll start to have a sugar crash. You may become irritable and/or sluggish. You've also now, literally, pissed away all the water that was in the Coke. But not before infusing it with valuable nutrients your body could have used for things like hydrating your system, or building strong bones and teeth.
This will all be followed by a caffeine crash in the next few hours. (As little as two if you're a smoker.) Want to know what happens after that? Check out what happens to your body after you drink a coke, every day for a long time.
Coke itself isn't the enemy here. It's the dynamic combo of massive sugar doses combined with caffeine and phosphoric acid, which are found in almost all sodas. Moderation, people!

Two Colorado Rapids players whose current status may be on the minds of many Rapids fans this offseason are veterans Brian Mullan and Jamie Smith. At the end of the 2013 season, the Rapids declined options on both players but are working with each individually to determine their future with the club in 2014 and beyond.
"Both Brian and Jamie have given a great deal to the Rapids," commented Rapids Technical Director Paul Bravo to ColoradoRapids.com. "They have shown their talent, work ethic, professionalism and experience over the last few years, and we love having them around the team."
Mullan, a 14-year veteran of Major League Soccer and Aurora native, came to the Rapids in a late 2010 trade, having spent the previous four and a half seasons with the Houston Dynamo. He made an immediate impact on the Rapids and played in all four matches of the 2010 postseason as Colorado won their first ever MLS Cup. Mullan is one of three players to have won a record five MLS Cups in his career.
Smith, a native of Glasgow, Scotland, was signed by the Rapids on July 28, 2009. Prior to coming to Colorado, Smith had successful stints with Scottish clubs Celtic, where he began his career in 1997 and scored six goals in 72 matches played through 2003, and Aberdeen, playing 105 matches and scoring 21 goals between 2005 and 2009. Since joining the Rapids, Smith has scored seven goals and added 13 assists in five seasons.
"We're currently talking with both players to see what makes the most sense for both them and the club moving forward," added Bravo. "But we don't know yet what their status will be for next year."
Both players are eligible to participate in the MLS Re-Entry Process, which allows veteran players to move teams, but they could also remove themselves from consideration in the process if they choose.

The prospect of spending 40 years in the slammer is apparently too much to face for Oliver Pan.
The former fund-raiser for city Comptroller John Liu was a no-show in court yesterday after questions were raised about his mental health.
Manhattan federal court Judge Richard Sullivan delayed Monday's scheduled trial of Xing Wu "Oliver" Pan and former Liu campaign treasurer Jia "Jenny" Hou for at least one day.
The judge cited "privacy issues," and revealed no details of Pan's condition or whereabouts.
Pan's lawyers declined to comment, but a law-enforcement source told The Post that officials feared that the New Jersey real-estate developer might try to kill himself.
"People around him felt he was suicidal," the source said. "It was things he said to people around him, and those people around him were talking about it."
Pan and Hou stand accused of scheming to obtain public campaign-finance matching funds by funneling illegal contributions into Liu's political war chest.

KALAMAZOO, Mich. - In his first solo trip to the NCAA Division III Championships, junior Edwin Zhang (Falls Church, Va.) won his first match in the opening round at Kalamazoo College on Thursday morning. With his win, he advanced to the Round of 16 that was played later on in the day.
To kick off the Championships, Zhang was paired with Artsiom Prostak of NC Wesleyan in the Round of 32. He easily won both sets with a score of 6-3, 6-2, knocking Prostak out of the tournament and moving himself on to the next round.
In the Round of 16, Zhang faced Aaron Skinner from Trinity (Texas), having to fight a little harder than he did earlier in the day. After being able to sneak in a few points in both sets, Zhang was defeated by Skinner with a score of 6-2, 6-2.
Zhang wrapped up his impressive season with a record of 13-6, playing every singles and doubles match at the No. 1 spot. The junior, who was named the Athlete of the Year at last month's New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) championship, was also named to the NEWMAC All-Conference team and was just honored with the Arthur Ashe Leadership and Sportsmanship Award.
The Engineers ended their season ranked 29th in the nation and fifth in the Northeast region. Zhang appeared on the singles list ranked fifth, while the pairing of Zhang and classmate Curtis Wu (Yorba Linda, Calif.) was seventh in doubles action.

Aspley replace Toowoomba and new SE Qld division formed
ASPLEY will join the Queensland Wizard Cup in 2007, while the QRL will also alter its Divisional structure before next season.
At the last QRL Board meeting for 2006, it was decided the Brisbane Broncos-affiliated Aspley club will become the 11th team in the State League, replacing the Toowoomba Clydesdales.
Citing financial shortfalls, Toowoomba withdrew from the Wizard Cup earlier this week.
Aspley has a strong foundation for its assault on 2007, having competed last year in both the FOGS Cup and FOGS Colts Challenge competitions, qualifying for the finals in the latter.
Aspley also boasts the third-highest number of juniors in Queensland, trailing only Redcliffe and Burleigh, both of which have successful Wizard Cup clubs.
In the other major news from today's Board meeting, it was agreed to form a new Division, South East Queensland, using the existing South East and Southern Division boundaries.
Presently the QRL is split into six Divisions, which administer rugby league for particular regions. This will become five Divisions in 2007.
The new Division will take in Greater Brisbane, stretching from Morayfield to Beenleigh and Dayboro to Stradbroke Island, while also encompassing the Ipswich and West Moreton region and both the coastal and hinterland areas of the Gold Coast.

Gong Xi Fa Cai!
For my many non-Chinese readers, tomorrow (10th of February) is the first day of the Year of the Snake, the Chinese or Lunar New Year.
Just like the Jews, the Chinese has its own New Years based on the lunar calendar correlated on the phases of the moon. Most Chinese have about one week of holiday and most travel home to see family. On New Year's Eve, a dinner is served with close friends and family. Children and young adults receives Hong Bao or red envelopes full of money! I used to love it but now I'm an adult unfortunately….
Are you born in 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001? You have the sign in the Year of the Snake. According to the TravelChinaGuide, people born under the Snake sign have the following strengths:
- "…have a good temper and a skill (of) communicating (yet) say(ing) little
- Possess gracious morality and great wisdom
- Have tremendous sympathy for others and would like to take actions to help ther fellow human beings
- Determined to accomplished their goals and hate to fail
- Although they look calm on the surface, they are intense and passionate
- Have a rich source of inspiration and understand themselves well
- Are people of great perception
A great list of positive characteristics isn't it?
If you are a snake, you are compatible romantically with Roosters and Oxen.
Ok, I better go pack for my trip to Shanghai tomorrow. Happy Chinese New Year from me to you!

Highlights: Rapids 2 - 0 Whitecaps FC
COMMERCE CITY, CO – After a closely fought battle, Vancouver Whitecaps FC (10W-8L-6D) were unfortunate not to come away with a share of the spoils as they suffered a 2-0 defeat to Colorado Rapids (10W-7L-9D) Saturday in a Western Conference crunch match at Dick's Sporting Goods Park.
Colorado scored a goal in each half en route to the victory, which gives them sole possession of second place in the Western Conference standings.
The 'Caps, meanwhile, drop to fifth place – though they still have two games in hand over the Rapids. Saturday's contest was the first of three meetings between Vancouver and Colorado this season.
Whitecaps FC head coach Martin Rennie went with the same starting lineup from last weekend's win against San Jose Earthquakes, but there was a return to the 18-man squad for Darren Mattocks. The Jamaican international, who hadn't played since Vancouver's 3-1 win against Chicago Fire on July 14, took the place of rookie winger Kekuta Manneh on the bench for Whitecaps FC.
The first chance of the match went to Colorado after they were awarded a free kick outside the Vancouver box in the fourth minute. The set piece was floated in but put behind for a corner by midfielder Nigel Reo-Coker. The drilled-in corner found an unmarked Hendry Thomas, who directed a powerful header just over the bar.
The Rapids were looking dangerous early on and created another opportunity on 11 minutes when a well-worked move saw Dillon Powers receive the ball well outside the area before unleashing a fierce effort at goal that went just wide.
In the 16th minute, Whitecaps FC nearly carved out an opportunity of their own as they broke quickly. Camilo controlled a long ball up-field before laying off for striker Kenny Miller, who in turn played the ball to Russell Teibert. The young Canadian international unleashed a long range effort that deflected off a defender and only just cleared the bar.
Vancouver continued to press in the 26th minute. A strong tackle in midfield from Daigo Kobayashi started the play, which led to a neat one-two between Teibert and Camilo. Teibert eventually found himself one-on-one with Colorado keeper Clint Irwin, but was unable to get a shot away before Irwin smothered the chance.
Teibert was in the thick of things again in the 34th minute when he raced towards the box with the Rapids defence standing off him. Just when it looked like the Canuck was about to pull the trigger, he played a ball through the defence to Miller who struck a first time shot that was well saved by Irwin.
The miss proved costly, as two minutes later a cross from Sanchez was met by Rapids striker Deshorn Brown at the back post. The rookie buried a header past David Ousted to give the Rapids the lead.
The teams went in at half time with the Rapids 1-0 up and they looked to double that lead early after the break when Thomas unleashed a powerful effort from well outside the box on 47 minutes. The shot fizzed past the post, although Ousted looked to have it covered.
There was a chance to make it a debut to remember for Colorado's new Designated Player Gabriel Torres. The Panamanian international received the ball in the Vancouver half and raced towards goal but Ousted alertly left his line to collect the ball from Torres' feet.
With time running out for Whitecaps FC to find a way back into the game, Mattocks was brought on to try and inject some pace into the attack and the change almost paid immediate dividends on 66 minutes. Reo-Coker played the ball through to Camilo, whose flick-on released substitute Mattocks. The Jamaican raced through the Colorado defence and found himself one-on-one with Irwin but his finish was well kept out by the Rapids' keeper.
With 10 minutes remaining, Colorado wrapped up the points when substitute Edson Buddle made a telling difference of his own. The veteran striker lined up a shot from just inside the area that took a deflection off defender Johnny Leveron to wrong foot Ousted and make it 2-0 to the Rapids.
A minute later, Colorado looked to have a third as they broke quickly from a Whitecaps FC corner. Martin Rivero sent goalscorer Brown clear on goal, but Ousted stood up and produced a fine save to keep the score 2-0.
Despite some late pressure, the 'Caps were unable to find a way back into the match as Colorado extended their unbeaten run to nine matches. After putting in a hardworking shift, midfielder Gershon Koffie was awarded the Budweiser Man of the Match award. It was his second straight match as a holding midfielder.

About this font family
To get right to the point, Dumpling was drawn, digitized and mastered by an 18-year old over a semester-long Senior Concentration in Graphic Design at the South Carolina Governor's School for the Arts. Seriously, think about that! What were you doing when you were a senior in high school? I watched this unfold as her teacher, guiding where I needed to, encouraging when necessary, but ultimately putting her through a ridiculously tedious, painful and compressed process. She did not falter, she did not complain, she worked. More…
In her own words (taken from an excerpt of her concentration paper), "In the middle of all this, I went to Charlotte, NC and saw and opera, the set designer was Jun Kaneko, [and afterwards] went to the Mint where we attended his talk (subsequently meeting him) and then perused a gallery of his work. His large ceramic forms made me realize how connected type is to sculpture. The medium may be different, but the ideas of negative space and forms interacting with each other and the view to convey a message are essentially the same.
Architecture too, is surprisingly connected to type. I find myself gravitating towards the word, 'entasis' as a way of describing my letterforms, though they have no reference to the Parthenon or Classicism. In type you need balance, continuity, a little unexpectedness, and a good amount of math."
What can you say? She listened to me :-)
In full disclosure, Mary Catherine, after completing her digitization, final tweaks, etc. in FontLab, turned the font over to me for OpenType coding and testing; though, I look forward to teaching her that next.

"Emeril's Florida" will put South Walton in the spotlight this Sunday on the Cooking Channel.
The program will feature several restaurants in South Walton and the area in general, including Bud & Alley's, Fish Out of Water, and Stinky's. The famous chef even made two filmed visits to Seaside Neighborhood School.
The program will feature the superstar chef cooking local fare at the restaurants.
Dave Rauschkolb, owner of Bud & Alley's, said Lagasse assisted Bud & Alley's Chef David Bishop in preparing their signature crab cakes, barbecue shrimp, and an oyster dish.
"A big crowd came to watch and it was a lot of fun," said Rauschkolb. "I have always been a great admirer of his, and we were extremely pleased to be included."
Rauschkolb said having two chefs in his kitchen at once was not a problem.
"Emeril and David had a good rapport. Emeril has eaten at Bud & Alley's for years. In real life, Emeril is very gracious and funny and a great guy to be around," said Rauschkolb, who was also filmed and interviewed about the history of Bud & Alley's.
"It's great that he is shining a spotlight on 30A with this show. The more foodies who see this area on TV, the more exposure, and the more people who will come here and to our restaurants," said Rauschkolb, who said he will be watching the show's premier.
Seaside Neighborhood School Principal Cathy Brubaker is another who will be watching on Sunday.
"Emeril and his film crew came to the school last April and did a cooking demo and tour of our school's edible garden. He filmed students working in the garden and he talked to them about it. He also talked to me about the idea for the garden, how it is implemented into the curriculum, about the school in general and the idea for the charter school and how it performs statewide," said Brubaker.
Brubaker said the school promotes healthy eating and uses produce from the garden to teach kids about fresh veggies.
"He's really big into it in New Orleans and has an edible garden there. It's a real hot button for him," she said.
Brubaker found the famed chef to be very engaging, friendly, and personable.
"He seemed to enjoy talking to the kids," she said.
During his demo there in April he cooked fish and prepared a fresh salad and green beans picked from the school's garden. He also talked about his show with the kids and where his phrase "BAM!" came from. He said it came from taping a lot of shows in one staging and he began inserting "BAM!" to wake up the crew, said Brubaker.
Emeril also embarked on a charter fishing trip from the Baytowne Wharf Marina at Sandestin and cooked up dinner right on the docks. One local segment also featured Florida Governor, Rick Scott. And, he also visited Mac Farms, located in Santa Rosa Beach, to view the locally grown and distributed herbs and vegetables. Many restaurants in the area receive their produce from Mac Farms that utilizes a hydroponic style of farming.
Lagasse, who serves as host and executive producer for the show, will prepare several different dishes and recipes that will be available for the Walton County Tourist Development Council to share on its website. The TDC paid $150,000 for 30 minutes of original content, which took a special meeting of the Board of County Commissioners to approve on Aug. 8, 2012.
Emeril now resides at Sandestin with his family.
�The show is about what this great state offers,� Lagasse has said. �So, it�s not just about cooking, it�s not just restaurants, although that�s a nice chunk of it. But it�s about the beaches, it�s about fishing, it�s about farming, it�s about the agriculture. When people think about Florida, of course, they think about sunshine and how beautiful it is. But they don�t really know the variety, the extent of what is really here. There�s so much here it�s incredible.�
The show is expected to be seen in more than 90 million households all over the United States and in millions more throughout the world. The first of 13 episodes aired this past Sunday highlighting dining and entertainment in Orlando. The Cooking Channel episode featuring South Walton will air on Jan. 13 at 9:30 a.m. It will re-run on Jan. 14 at 9:30 a.m. and Jan. 17 at 11:30 a.m. Future episodes will also feature segments involving South Walton.

Product Description
New York Times Ten Best Books of 2012

"A boldly Joycean appropriation, fortunately not so difficult of entry as its great model… Like Zadie Smith's much-acclaimed predecessor White Teeth (2000), NW is an urban epic." --Joyce Carol Oates, The New York Review of Books

This is the story of a city.

The northwest corner of a city. Here you'll find guests and hosts, those with power and those without it, people who live somewhere special and others who live nowhere at all. And many people in between.

Every city is like this. Cheek-by-jowl living. Separate worlds.

And then there are the visitations: the rare times a stranger crosses a threshold without permission or warning, causing a disruption in the whole system. Like the April afternoon a woman came to Leah Hanwell's door, seeking help, disturbing the peace, forcing Leah out of her isolation…

Zadie Smith's brilliant tragi-comic new novel follows four Londoners - Leah, Natalie, Felix and Nathan – as they try to make adult lives outside of Caldwell, the council estate of their childhood. From private houses to public parks, at work and at play, their London is a complicated place, as beautiful as it is brutal, where the thoroughfares hide the back alleys and taking the high road can sometimes lead you to a dead end.

Depicting the modern urban zone – familiar to town-dwellers everywhere – Zadie Smith's NW is a quietly devastating novel of encounters, mercurial and vital, like the city itself.

Amazon.com Review
Amazon Best Books of the Month, September 2012: Zadie Smith's NW, an ode to the neighborhoods of northwest London where the author came of age, feels like a work in progress. For most writers, that would be a detriment. But in this case, the sense of imperfection feels like a privilege: a peek inside the fascinating brain of one of the most interesting writers of her generation. Smith (White Teeth, On Beauty) plays extensively with form and style--moving from screenplay-like dialogue to extremely short stories, from the first person to the third--but her characters don't matter as much as their setting. Smith is a master of literary cinematography. It's easy to picture her creations, flaws ablaze, as they walk the streets of London. --Alexandra Foster

HARVEST, AL (WAFF) - The road to recovery still a long one ahead for a Harvest family that lost two loved ones from the April 27 tornadoes.
Misty Cornwell held a memorial Saturday afternoon to remember her 15-year-old daughter, Katie, and her father, Harold Fitzgerald, who were both killed by the storm one year ago.
A tornado left their neighborhood on Orville Smith Road unrecognizable.
"Nothing looks the same. Everything is different. Everything is so open, you never could see anything," said Misty's mom, Cheryl Smith.
Smith lost her husband, Harold, whom she calls Butch. She also lost her 15-year-old granddaughter Katie.
"A year ago yesterday, my whole world changed. Life as I knew it. My life is totally different now," Smith said.
The tornado leveled her house and her daughter Misty's home, just next door.
The home's original deck was the only one thing standing in the aftermath.
"My husband built me this about nine years ago. And for some reason, this stood," Smith said.
Smith said she stays strong for her daughter Misty and her great grandchildren.
"If I didn't have them and I knew I had to get up every single morning and go to work, I probably wouldn't get out of bed some days," Smith said.
In the backyard, two wooden crosses stand on a grassy field to honor Katie and Butch.

Overall employment at KU Law was 91 percent for the Class of 2015. This represents a return to employment rates not seen since before the Great Recession. The quality of jobs also continues to improve. Many regard bar admission-required and JD-advantage jobs that are full-time and long-term as the highest quality positions for new graduates. The percentage of students landing these "best jobs" rose to 81.5 percent, the fifth consecutive rise and part of a 19 percent improvement since 2011.
Unless otherwise specified, all numbers are based on data reported to the ABA. Differences in criteria between bodies like the ABA and NALP may create minor differences in similar categories. The related ABA and NALP forms can be found here.
While many of our students and graduates choose to work in communities throughout Kansas or in the Kansas City metropolitan region, our students and graduates come from and work across the US and abroad. Members of the classes of 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015 accepted positions in at least 33 states, including California, Texas, Colorado, New York and Washington, D.C, as well as taking positions overseas from Belgium to Beijing. Our loyal alumni are found in all 50 states around the globe, including China, Japan, Korea, the Netherlands and Saudi Arabia.
A considerable number of graduates accept judicial clerkships, including 9 from the Class of 2015.

text: CINCINNATI—The dean of nursing at the University of Cincinnati (UC) is leading a quality review of the country of Jordan's 22 associate and six baccalaureate nursing programs.A team of 20 U.S. nursing professionals, headed by Dean Andrea Lindell, DNSc, of UC's College of Nursing, will meet in Cincinnati Sept. 15 for a one-day workshop to prepare them for the review.For the last six years, Jordan has been working to improve the quality of its higher education programs in computer science, business administration, law, and accounting and is currently focusing on nursing.The review is sponsored by the Hussein Fund for Excellence. A nonprofit organization supported by Jordan's banking sector, the fund was established in 1999 to enhance and improve the quality of the country's higher education among other goals.The Hussein Fund is working with the Center for Quality Assurance in International Education (CQAIE), based in Washington, D.C., to lead the external review of Jordan's nursing degree programs.The CQAIE selected Lindell to head the review for three primary reasons, according to Marjorie Lenn, PhD, the organization's executive director."Dr. Lindell has outstanding experience in United States accreditation, long-standing leadership at a national level in nursing, and senior-level experience in the administration of one of the most highly esteemed nursing programs in the country," says Lenn."I'm very honored to be selected as the U.S. representative to help Jordan measure the quality of its nursing programs and ultimately raise the standards they use to judge themselves," Lindell says."The fact that Jordanian leaders requested the assistance of the United States shows they value what we've done to monitor and assess our own nursing programs to ensure quality," she says.The review process began earlier this year when Lindell traveled to Jordan to meet with dignitaries, including Her Royal Highness Princess Muna Al Hussein, director of the country's nursing council, and nursing leaders. During her visit, Lindell shared the expectations of a quality assurance review and how Jordan can effectively prepare for it.Nursing educators in Jordan are currently undergoing self-reviews and preparing documentation that will be evaluated by the U.S. review team. They will travel to Jordan in November and December to meet with Jordanian nursing educators and expect to complete the reviews by early next year.According to Hilda Ajeilat, PhD, executive director of the Hussein Fund, demand for national and regional nursing programs at Jordan's colleges and universities is increasing."The nursing profession demands wide knowledge, problem solving and practical skills," says Ajeilat. "That's why we want to improve the quality of our programs. We're also experiencing an increased need for nurses because of a number of new hospitals in the region." The highest quality baccalaureate program will receive $45,000 from the Hussein Fund, and the best associate program will receive $15,000.

Ahmed Deedat: From Hinduism to Islam
Similarities between Hinduism and Islam
Watch Woman (Namita) accept ISLAM in Mumbai
Videos of Quranic Tafseer [Israr Ahmed]: Surah Al-Maun, Chapter-107
Dars-106, Surah Al-Maun, Chapter-107, Ayah 1-End, Video-6 of 6
About the Video: Tafseer of Quran, Al-Maun, Chapter-107
Dr. Israr Ahmad, the second son of a government servant, was born on April 26, 1932 in Hisar (a district of East Punjab, now a part of Haryana) in India. He graduated from King Edward Medical College (Lahore) in 1954 and later received his masters in Islamic Studies from the University of Karachi in 1965. He came under the influence of Allama Iqbal and Maulana Abul A`la Maududi as a young student, worked briefly for Muslim Student's Federation in the Independence Movement and, following the creation of Pakistan in 1947, for the Islami Jami`yat-e-Talaba and then for the Jama`at-e-Islami. Dr. Israr Ahmad resigned from the Jama`at in April 1957 because of its involvement in the electoral politics, which he believed was irreconcilable with the revolutionary methodology adopted by the Jama'at in the pre-1947 period.
While still a student and an activist of the Islami Jami`yat-e-Talaba, Dr. Israr Ahmad gained considerable fame and eminence as a Mudarris (or teacher) of the Holy Qur'an. Even after resigning from the Jama`at, he continued to give Qur'anic lectures in different cities of Pakistan, and especially after 1965 he has, according to his own disclosure, invested the better part of his physical and intellectual abilities in the learning and teaching of the Qur'anic wisdom.
Dr. Israr Ahmad wrote an extremely significant tract in 1967 in which he explained his basic thought — that an Islamic Renaissance is possible only by revitalizing the Iman (true faith and conviction) among the Muslims, particularly their intelligentsia. The revitalization of Iman, in turn, is possible only by the propagation of the Qur'anic teachings and presenting the everlasting wisdom of the Book of Allah (SWT) in contemporary idiom and at the highest level of scholarship. This undertaking is essential in order to remove the existing dichotomy between modern physical and social sciences on the one hand and the knowledge revealed by Almighty Allah (SWT) on the other. This tract is available in English as "Islamic Renaissance: The Real Task Ahead".
Dr. Israr Ahmad gave up his thriving medical practice in 1971 in order to launch a full-fledged and vigorous movement for the revival of Islam. As a result of his efforts, the Markazi Anjuman Khuddam-ul-Qur'an Lahore was established in 1972, Tanzeem-e-Islami was founded in 1975, and Tahreek-e-Khilafat Pakistan was launched in 1991.
Dr. Israr Ahmad first appeared on Pakistan Television in 1978 in a program called Al-Kitab; this was followed by other programs, known as Alif Lam Meem, Rasool-e-Kamil, Umm-ul-Kitab and the most popular of all religious programs in the history of Pakistan Television, the Al-Huda, which made him a household name throughout the country. Although he did not like to receive it personally, Dr. Israr Ahmad was awarded Sitara-e-Imtiaz in 1981. He has to his credit over 60 Urdu books on topics related to Islam and Pakistan, 9 of which have been translated into English and other languages.
In the context of Qur'anic exegesis and understanding, Dr. Israr Ahmad is a firm traditionalist of the genre of Maulana Mehmood Hassan Deobandi and Allama Shabeer Ahmad Usmani; yet he presents Qur'anic teachings in a scientific and enlightened way, being also a disciple of Allama Iqbal and Dr. Muhammad Rafiuddin, and also because of his own background in science and medicine. Concerning the internal coherence of and the principles of deep reflection in the Qur'an, he has essentially followed the thinking of Maulana Hameed Uddin Farahi and Maulana Ameen Ahsan Islahi, though even here he has further developed their line of argument. Dr. Israr Ahmad believes in a dynamic and revolutionary conception of Islam, and in this regard he is a disciple of Maulana Abul Kalam Azad and Maulana Sayyid Abul A`la Maududi.
For the last forty years or so, Dr. Israr Ahmad has been actively engaged not only in reviving the Qur'an-centered Islamic perennial philosophy and world-view but also reforming the society in a practical way with the ultimate objective of establishing a true Islamic State, or the System of Khilafah. He has widely traveled abroad and the audio and video tapes of his Qur'anic discourses in Urdu and English languages have circulated in thousands throughout the world.
A master's thesis, entitled Dr. Israr Ahmad's Political Thought and Activities, was written by Ms. Shagufta Ahmad in the Islamic Studies department of Canada's Mac Gill University. This thesis is available from Markazi Anjuman Khuddam-ul-Qur'an Lahore.
Dr. Israr Ahmed relinquished the leadership of Tanzeem-e-Islami in October, 2002 on grounds of bad health and Hafiz Aakif Saeed is the present Ameer of the Tanzeem to whom all rufaqaa of Tanzeem renewed their pledge of Baiyah.

Back seat conversations: the meaning of lyrics edition
So we were driving back from soccer one day last month, and "Kiss You (When it's Dangerous)" came on the radio. I've embedded the video above for those of you (my U.S and U.K. friends) who have probably never heard this 80s Ottawa band's most famous song.
And from the back seat came this conversation:
Leah [singing along]: ♫ ♪ I'll kiss you when it's dangerous. I'll kiss you then and only then. ♪
Rae: What do you think they mean by "kiss you when it's dangerous"? What does it mean?
Leah: I don't know.
Rae: Maybe it means that he will only kiss her if she's tied up on a moving conveyor belt with sharp knives on it.
Leah: Ummm....
Rae: And lasers.
Leah: Nah, it probably means that he's going to kiss her when she's mad at him and he might get slapped if he tries. So it's dangerous.
Rae: Like she's mad because he didn't buy her some shoes?
Leah: Exactly.
10 comments:
Hey -- yeah. What the hell DOES that song mean anyway?ReplyDelete
Damned if I know. I just googled "what does 'kiss you when it's dangerous' mean", and this post was second. The first return was an 80s music blog which was posing the same question. I guess we'd have to ask the band. If they're still in Ottawa, they're probably middle managers at an IT company in Kanata.ReplyDelete
Yep, that's exactly what it means. :-)ReplyDelete
Too funny! There's nothing better than overhearing your children talking. I never understand a thing that comes out of the mouths of mine. It's all Warhammer this and Zombie apocalypse that. It may be funny but I just don't get it LOL!ReplyDelete
They are so funny...I love Leah & Rachel conversations :)ReplyDelete
Karen - I'm sure there'll come a time when I have no idea what they're talking about. And knowing my kids, zombies will probably be the subject too, lol.ReplyDelete
Velocigirl - Hi! Haven't seen you in a while. I love their conversations too. Just wait til the Brachiopod gets bigger, I'm sure he'll crack you up with his convos.

One-Third of Marketers See ROI From Social Media
January 15, 2014
By Erik Sass, MediaPost
While advertising dollars are pouring into social media, most marketers still aren't quite sure what they're getting for their investments. An estimated one-third (34%) of marketers say they have seen a return on from their social media spending.
According to a new survey of around 2,300 marketers around the world by ExactTarget's "2014 State of Marketing" report, that proportion is on the low side, considering the high rate of adoption for social media disciplines in general.
78% of marketers surveyed said they are currently engaged in social media marketing, 57% are using social media for advertising, and 60% are engaged in social media listening. That means roughly half of marketers who use social media (for any kind of marketing-related purpose) see any direct benefit from it. Further, just 31% think social listening is fully effective, and 23% think social advertising is effective. But 66% said that social media indirectly impacts their business performance.
On the positive side, another 52% of marketers surveyed said they expect social media to generate ROI in the future, yielding a grand total of 86% who believe social media is currently or will eventually provide ROI — beating out mobile at 80%.
Most marketers (57%) plan to increase their spending on social-media marketing in 2014, and 55% plan to spend more on social-media advertising, according to ExactTarget. That's close behind data and analytics (61%), marketing automation (60%) and email marketing (58%).
To that end, 57% of marketers surveyed say their companies have dedicated social-media teams, although some can be quite small: 45% of companies have a social media team of one person (making the word "team" a bit of a misnomer), while 40% have a social team of just two to three people.
In terms of platforms, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn dominate current efforts, with adoption rates of 89%, 87%, and 75%, respectively; YouTube isn't far behind with 72%, while Google+ is used by 50% of marketers and Pinterest by 40%. Turning to the future, 18% of marketers surveyed said they plan to introduce Google+ marketing campaigns in 2014, while 17% will begin using blogs, and 16% will adopt Pinterest.

I would say my opinion began to turn with the Brian Straus article leading up to the snow game. Then took a negative turn when the things in that article came true when we had a series of non-contact fatigue injuries in the World Cup.
I would say that the LD issue was not that he was left off the squad. But the mind games and crappy way the coach treated one of the best players the US has ever had.
At this point, with the full national team squad, the US has regressed. Writers like Brian Straus/Matt Doyle/Grant Wahl have said it way better than I can.
But with Sunil Gulati in charge, Klinsman has no worries.

The quality of the players in the player pool
varies over time. The present squad may not be as
good as past squads. Altidore has deteriorated. We
could use a Brian McBride. Julian Green isn't
Donovan. The defense is in disarray. Carlos
Bocanegra is gone. Is there a Claudia Reyna on the
team? That could be part of the problem.

I think Jozy still has value, has been a rocky road for him in

healthy. At least he is on Toronto now instead of that mess of a

Mexico has had ebbs and flows in their talent pool
as well. They tend to stick with players past
their sell by date but change coaches too much.
Changing coaches too often hurts long-term
development and deters some coaches from taking
the job. I think that's part of Gulati's thinking.

My brother in law bought a bunch of tickets for us and his

analysts are giving Temple a 20% chance to win, it will be a
long shot but their chances are better now than ever. Either
way I'm wearing my Temple jersey and hoping the Owls will
pull off the biggest upset in their 100+ year history. The Owls
soccer team is doing well this year also but the football

The New Three Stooges (Cambria, 1965-66)
"Hey, Moe! Hey, Larry!!!"
I usually limit the posts on our blog to background art from great artists and major studios, usually Disney.
Today is a rather bizarre exception...
"The New Three Stooges" was animated at Cambria Studios, a small studio once located in West Hollywood.
Despite operating on a shoestring budget, the studio was able to produce series which are fondly remembered for their imaginative and entertaining storylines, and for their inventive ways of compensating for budgetary limitations. Remember "Clutch Cargo?"
The wildly successful TV screening of vintage Three Stooges shorts created a new children's audience desperate for more from the eye-poking trio. So "The New Three Stooges" was born, which featured new animated segments as well as live action vignettes by original stooges Moe Howard and Larry Fine along with third Stooge "Curly Joe."
I had frankly forgotten I'd picked up a DVD of the series. When unpacking a box of DVDs after my recent move, I stumbled across this by accident.
The first cartoon I watched was "Let's Shoot The Piano Player." The ultra-limited animation is strictly kids' stuff, but there are some cute bits quite reminiscent of the Columbia films. (Did you know Moe Howard came up with most of the ideas for the original Stooges films?)
I was struck by the simple but eye-catching Old West design of this opening pan shot. It's lean but charismatic, don't you think?
I have broken up the pan B/G into right and left sections, as well as the final frame of the "No Chance Saloon," so you can take a better look.
Background artists for the series were Gloria Wood, Bob Inman and Bill Butler.
Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk!!! (OK, I just had to get that out of my system...)

Hey your blog is so nice, honestly I liked it. Well I want to tell you that I just watched the new movie "The Three stooges" and trust me guys I loved this movie. I think it is the best funniest movie of this year. This movie is the ultimate entertainment for all the viewers.
You should watch the three stooges movie and I bet you will enjoy it.

A beautiful home is something that matters. If you are in the process of renovating your home, go for the changes that are both eye catching and comfortable for your family. Home remodeling involves amendments and renovations done in every nook and corner of your home. If you are planning to change your house flooring, there are some tips to follow to help you flooring different sections of the house.
Bedroom flooring:
There are Kitchen flooring:
Design your kitchen floor in such a way that it appears pretty as well as offers a practical impression. You can go for tile, vinyl, wood, natural stone, laminate or cork. Kitchen flooring should be water resistant, elegant and durable. Flooring such as tile is durable and is water resistant. Ensure that when purchasing the flooring, order for an extra. This will help you in the case where the floor gets damaged, and you need to repair it. The price of the flooring is never constant and continues rising each day. Having extra flooring material will help you save on cost, in the case of repair. However, a larger percentage of flooring contractors, add about 10% additional square footage of the product to their purchase order. This ensures that they have adequate flooring for the project and offering the customer with extra flooring for future renovation.
Living room flooring:
Living room is the most section of the house that experiences heavy traffic of the folks coming in and out of the house. Ideally, the living room flooring should be heavy duty enough to withstand any adjustments done with your furniture or increase of traffic. For this matter, you can choose hardwood flooring. Whenever, you are remodeling your home, being classy and stylish in appearance is the ideal option for your lounge. Living room attracts many visitors; that is why its flooring should be stylish, strong and durable.
One additional consideration, after replacing your flooring it would be wise to have your air duct systems cleaned to prevent the spread of dust and other little nasties from spreading around your house. It also helps to keep your new flooring dust free which means less mopping and sweeping that new beautiful hardwood floor of yours.

Energy Department Misleads Congress, Delays Release of Report to the Public, But Where Are the Nets?
TV's Great Stonewall of China Continues
While the Pentagon aims to have enough personnel and materiel to fight two wars at
once, the TV networks have demonstrated they can't cover two international stories at the
same time. All eyes are on Kosovo, and none on what may be a far more dangerous threat to
U.S. national security: China.
Cox on Fox.
Yesterday, Reps. Christopher Cox and Norman Dicks appeared on Fox News Sunday to
discuss their special bipartisan House probe of Chinese espionage. When asked why the
committee's report has been so long in coming, Cox replied: "Even though we've
reached agreement, for example, with the CIA or the FBI, the Department of Energy will
have an objection not based on sources or methods but based on some other ground and if
declassification is, in fact, the legitimate aim here, if we're trying to declassify --
not just say that we could classify this if we wished to do so -- then I think those kinds
of objections not based on sources and methods are not proper in this circumstance and
we're trying to, frankly, turn them around on that." But the developing scandal of
DOE cover-ups and stonewalling isn't gaining TV traction.
Trulock Blocked. A week ago, Energy Department intelligence adviser
Notra Trulock testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee. Only CBS Evening
News filed a full report. [See box.] FNC gave it 43 seconds. ABC and NBC did nothing.
CBS's Sharyl Attkisson added: "In fact, some intelligence officials now regard the
theft of design plans for America's most sophis-ticated nuclear warhead, the W-88, the
most important spy case in recent history, but Trulock says his efforts to fix
breaches at the weapons labs were blocked at every turn, even when he identified suspects
in early 1996."
On Thursday, Trulock appeared before the House Armed Services Committee. Associated
Press reported: "Energy Department officials acknowledged Thursday they withheld
information from a House subcommittee last fall on an alleged Chinese spying case. A
department intelligence officer said he was told by the deputy energy secretary not to
talk about the case, a charge the senior agency official denied." Only FNC covered
the House hearing, in 25 seconds.
How many stories will it take to get the networks interested in the damage done by
Chinese espionage? So far, it's balked at covering:
The Neutron Dance. Chinese agents bragged about stealing neutron bomb
secrets from U.S. nuclear labs in 1995. One U.S. official announced: "The penetration
is total...they are deep, deep into the labs' black [top secret] programs." Beijing
also acquired two unexploded U.S. cruise missiles from the attack on Osama bin Laden in
The Wiretap Tip. What about the mysterious Justice Department wiretap
record? Out of 2,686 wiretap requests, only the call to tap alleged spy Wen Ho Lee was
Chung's Chinese Check-Writers. Johnny Chung has told Justice
Department investigators that the chief of Chinese military intelligence gave him $300,000
to donate to the 1996 Clinton-Gore campaign. Chung also has linked fund-raisers Charlie
Trie and John Huang to money from Chinese military intelligence.
When asked about Chung's campaign cash, Cox told Fox News Sunday host Tony
Snow that he believes the money was "for purposes, which I'm convinced, extended to
the acquisition of technology, not just putting the money into campaigns." So where's
the follow-up? -- Tim Graham

SANDY, Utah – Second-half substitute Fabian Espindola scored his team-leading fifth goal of the season in the 83rd minute and Real Salt Lake came from behind to claim a 3-3 draw with the visiting New England Revolution in a wild encounter on Monday night at Rio Tinto Stadium.
Rajko Lekic scored from the penalty spot in the fourth minute – moments after Nat Borchers was shown a straight red card for fouling Benny Feilhaber in the box – and Chris Tierney doubled the Revolution's lead with a long-range free kick in the 16th minute.
Will Johnson and Alvaro Saborio – also from the penalty spot – scored either side of halftime to pull RSL level at 2-2, before Shalrie Joseph restored New England's lead in the 63rd minute. Revolution defender Ryan Cochrane was issued his second yellow card and was subsequently ejected in the 67th minute as the sides were leveled at 10 players apiece, setting the stage for Espindola's dramatic equalizer seven minutes from the final whistle.
The draw helped the Revs (3-8-7, 16 pts.) earn their first-ever point at Rio Tinto Stadium after a pair of heavy defeats in their first two visits, but the club's winless streak was extended to eight games (0-5-3) in league action. It was Real Salt Lake's (7-3-6, 27 pts.) fourth draw in its last five games.
Tierney returned from a left foot contusion to regain his starting role on the left wing, while the Revolution's lineup remained otherwise unchanged from the 2-1 loss to Seattle Sounders FC last weekend.
The Revs took an early lead on the road for the second straight week and simultaneously went up a man when Lekic converted from the spot after Borchers was issued a straight red card in just the third minute.
Matt Reis' long goal kick bounced straight through the RSL backline and Feilhaber latched onto the ball as he surged into the box, but Borchers intervened as Feilhaber shaped to shoot and referee Yader Reyes awarded a penalty kick and a red card. Lekic stepped up and finished with a calm chip down the middle to hand the Revolution a 1-0 lead.
New England capitalized on its man advantage almost instantly and doubled its lead in the 16th minute when Tierney beat RSL goalkeeper Nick Rimando with a 35-yard free kick. Tierney's low effort was drilled past the Real Salt Lake wall and skipped just inside the right post.
The home side answered from a set piece of its own in the 24th minute to cut the deficit to 2-1. Former Revolution midfielder Andy Williams' curling free kick from 20 yards struck the right post, but Johnson followed up and tapped into an empty net from close range with Reis out of position after diving for the initial effort.
RSL almost pulled level before halftime when Jamison Olave rose highest at the back post in the 40th minute, but his header toward the right post was stopped by Reis and the Revolution maintained a one-goal lead at the break.
It didn't take long for the Claret-and-Cobalt to level the score at 2-2 after the halftime break, however, as Saborio buried a penalty kick in the 56th minute. Reyes pointed to the spot after an apparent handball from Kevin Alston, and Saborio deposited his effort low into the right side of the net.
Joseph restored New England's lead just seven minutes later with his team-leading fifth goal of the season. Feilhaber curled a free kick into the box from the left channel and Joseph sent a glancing header into the back of the net off right post as the Revs went ahead 3-2.
Real Salt Lake was handed a lifeline in the 67th minute when Cochrane was issued a second yellow card for a jersey tug on Williams, leveling the sides at 10 players apiece. Saborio almost capitalized on the ensuing free kick, but his follow-up header hit the crossbar after Johnson's initial effort was parried by Reis.
Eventually the home side did find its equalizer following clever hold up play from Saborio in the 83rd minute. The Costa Rican forward received the ball with his back to goal and laid a pass into the path of Espindola, who finished inside the right post with the outside of his left foot.
The Revs will have an extended break before their next match, a friendly with Barclays Premier League champion Manchester United on Wednesday, July 13, at Gillette Stadium as part of the Herbalife World Football Challenge. New England returns to league action on Sunday, July 17, when the club hosts the Philadelphia Union.

Dale's Day: Earnhardt Jr. Wins Daytona 500
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- It took most of a day to get it in, but only one short slice of a moment to determine the outcome.
In a race that was delayed more than six hours by rain, Dale Earnhardt Jr. won the 56th running of the Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway.
The 39-year-old led six times for 54 laps in the 200-lap event, holding off Denny Hamlin for the victory in a two-lap dash set up after a multicar crash in Turn 3.
A winner of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series' premier event in 2004, Earnhardt Jr. had finished second in three of his last four Daytona 500 attempts. Sunday's victory was his first win in his last 56 starts.
Another crash erupted on the final lap, forcing the race to end under caution, but the mayhem was in the leader's rear-view mirror.
"I didn't know if I'd ever get a chance to feel that again and it feels just as good if not better than the first because of how hard we tried year after year, running second all those years and wondering why and what we needed to do.
"We got a little help from Jeff (Gordon) to get away on that restart and tried to take care of if from there. This is amazing. I can't believe this is happening. I'll never take it for granted because this just doesn't happen twice."
It was a popular victory, both among the fans and fellow competitors.
"The world is right, right now," said Gordon, a teammate at Hendrick Motorsports. "Dale Jr. just won the Daytona 500 to kick off 2014. That is a sign that the NASCAR season is going to be a good one."
"He has been knocking on the door here at the 500 for a lot of years and got it done tonight," Johnson said. "He did an awesome job."
"I'm glad Dale got the win - he needed that," said Joe Gibbs Racing driver Matt Kenseth, sixth in the final rundown. "He needed that. That was good for him and Denny -- Denny was super fast all week and it looks like he almost pulled it off, too."
Hamlin, eyeing a sweep of events at DIS -- he won last week's Sprint Unlimited and one of Thursday's two Budweiser Duel races -- rallied from sixth to second in the closing laps.
Brad Keselowski, Gordon and Johnson completed the top five in the season's season-opening event.
An early push on the final restart from Gordon shoved Earnhardt Jr. out front and away from the frantic two-by-two battles. Keselowski was second when the field took the white flag, signifying one lap remaining, while Hamlin rode in third.
"I'm so 50/50 on whether I'm pissed off or I'm happy," Hamlin said after his career-best finish in the 500. "I just don't know.
"Any other year I probably would have been like jumping up and down. We can hardly finish these races, much less have a shot at a victory."
Hamlin said radio issues that surfaced after the long rain delay returned late in the race, and left him acting as his own spotter.
"I felt like our car wasn't as strong as the week progressed. The competition definitely caught up for sure. Then … me not being able to drive to my ability because I was being conservative, trying to spot for myself, that's not a way to race."
Only 38 laps had been completed when the race was halted for rain. Officials red-flagged the race at 2:13 p.m. ET. Although the rain intensified - severe weather warnings were issued for the surrounding region and lightning streaked against the gray sky - after nearly six and one half hours, the cars were back on the race track.
Kyle Busch was on point when the race was stopped with Kasey Kahne, Hamlin, Brian Vickers and Paul Menard completing the top five.
Earnhardt Jr. didn't take the lead for the first time until lap 131, but once there his No. 88 Chevrolet proved to be stout. Others were equally strong.
A power move coming out of the fourth turn with 21 laps remaining pushed Carl Edwards into the lead, with Earnhardt Jr. Kenseth, Johnson and Greg Biffle rounding out the top five.
Kenseth moved into second a lap later, with just 20 laps remaining.
With 18 to go, it was Earnhardt Jr. showing the power, pulling the outside line around Edwards and into the lead. Johnson, Kevin Harvick, Reed Sorenson and Keselowski were second through fifth as Edwards was shuffled back to seventh.
The fifth caution of the race flew on the ensuing lap, however, as 2011 Daytona 500 winner Trevor Bayne spun and careened off the wall to set up a 13-lap shootout.
With 10 laps remaining, Earnhardt Jr. remained out front with Johnson, Gordon, Harvick and Keselowski trailing. Kurt Busch spun coming to the tri-oval and momentarily became stuck in the grass at the entrance to pit road. But no caution appeared, and the race remained under green.
The yellow did appear at lap 195 when a six-car melee unfolded in Turn 3. Ryan Newman, Justin Allgaier, Parker Kligerman and Cole Whitt were among those involved.
Earnhardt Jr.'s 2004 victory came while he was driving for Dale Earnhardt Inc., the company founded by his late father, seven-time champion Dale Earnhardt.
"It's hard to put into words what winning this race really means to you," Earnhardt Jr. said. "I felt lucky (in 2004) because I was with a lot of family back then. What makes this (race) special is the people that you have with you when it happens.
"It just seems like it's too good to be true, really."

I got the chance to take a great young fisherman out Saturday morning thanks to my wife... Now what would a wife have to do with me getting to fish? She is the AP at a local Comal ISD elementary school and just happened to notice this little dudes passion for fishing. I get to volunteer at the school every year teaching 5th graders to fly cast but rarely do I see this level of focused fishing skill all wrapped up in a youngster. Of course there are the kids who like to fish or that want to go, but they usually cant stay focused long enough to really pick apart the river. Well I met my match in this one! Layne is only in 4th grade but is already eaten up with the fishing flu! While he isn't an expert with the fly rod YET, I tell him to cast to the tree next to the bank with his spinning rod and he says " which side of the tree " and puts it on the spot!! Our intent was to try to pull a few striper, or even a bass or two from the river, get some photos and have a good time on the river. Well.....no striper, but oh boy the bass!!
First fish of the day
If you get the chance...take a kid fishing, unless they out fish you....then leave them at the video game console and don't tell them about any of your honey holes! wink wink!

Re: Saturday morning
Brings back great memories of my grandkids. Hope you took the opportunity after that last photo to tell him not to lower-lip a fish. It produces a severe strain on their jaw ligaments and can kill the fish.

christmas in cali
yesterday amber and i worked on styling a christmas shoot, cali style, despite the record breaking temperature in LA of 90 degrees
meanwhile, back at the fort, the ladies of furbish did some christmas stylings of their own, featuring our new pom pom christmas tree skirt.
