Seattle native Marcus Hahnemann returned to the Sounders last season and provides the club with a more-than-capable backup to starting goalkeeper Michael Gspurning.
TUKWILA — There was a tinge of disappointment to Marcus Hahnemann's offseason. But how could that be? The veteran goalkeeper was just months removed from fulfilling a longtime dream by returning to his hometown team, Sounders FC, after more than a decade of playing in England.
Moreover, the Seattle native was back from essentially being forced into retirement, in part by a confounding MLS allocation process that made it nearly impossible for the 40-year-old to join the league.
The Hahnemann family hosted its biggest Christmas in 16 years, a luxury afforded by living close to home and not abroad.
Amid so much joy, why any bad feelings?

"We thought we could've pushed forward and made it to the final — at least," Hahnemann said of Sounders FC coming one game short of the 2012 MLS Cup.
Even though Hahnemann hadn't played for the Sounders since a three-year stint from 1994 to 1996, back when he was just starting his pro career, the emotions prove he's been a Sounder for life.
"Seattle's been my team forever," he said. "This is home."
And home is where another storied American goalkeeping career will come to an end, much like it did for the beloved Kasey Keller 14 months ago. But while Hahnemann said he has thought about if this will be his final season, it won't come to define the year.
"I enjoy coming out here," he said, still sweating from work on the practice field. "Would I rather be skiing with the kids? Probably. Every day being a ski bum? Yeah, that'd be nice. But if you enjoy something, why would you stop? Most likely this will probably be my last year. It's going to be a long, hard season, but if I'm feeling good, why wouldn't I want to play?"
A stable backup
The Sounders' worst winless streak in four years coincided last season almost directly with a long-term injury to their starting goalkeeper.
Michael Gspurning was out 13 midseason games with a hip strain, and the team went a franchise-worst nine games without a victory. To blame all of that on Seattle's backups — who are no longer with the team — would be unfair, but it was a factor.
And if that happens again this season?
"If Michael goes down, for sure (we're comfortable with) Marcus," goalkeeper coach Tom Dutra said. "For me, we have the best goalkeeping tandem in the league right now. Who's better? Really, who's better?"
Hahnemann played only once last year after signing in September — a CONCACAF Champions League group-stage game in October after the team had already clinched advancement to the quarterfinals. The victory was nice, but so was the reassurance in Seattle's goalkeeping depth.
"For us to have him is great security," said coach Sigi Schmid.
Dutra noted Seattle is going into the season with a "clear" depth chart — 1, Gspurning. 2, Hahnemann. 3, Josh Ford — but that doesn't put an end to competition for playing time.
"We're all fighting for positions," Hahnemann said. "We're all pushing each other."
'There's a good spirit with him'
There simply is no missing Hahnemann.
Maybe it's his stature (6 feet 3, 220 pounds), or his shaved head, or his gregarious personality often accompanied by a wide smile.
That outgoing nature is what most coaches and teammates mention first about Hahnemann, and it prevents tension forming within the position group.
"It's fun, first of all," Gspurning said of the relationship. "It's fun because he brings a lot of experience, too. It's always great to talk to him about soccer. … He's a great guy. He's funny. He brings a good atmosphere to the team. There's a good spirit with him."
The affable spirit is contagious, but it's not just about laughs with Hahnemann.
Veteran defender Zach Scott said Hahnemann's leadership skills are similar to those of Keller, who captained the Sounders from 2009 to his retirement after the 2011 season.
"You didn't ask (Keller) to take a leadership role," Scott said. "It was just something assumed and something he was comfortable with, and that's exactly how Marcus is."
Added assistant coach Brian Schmetzer: "Marcus has some experience that a lot of us, myself included, never had from playing in the top league in the world. He has lots of stories, lots of advice for the young guys. He's great in the clubhouse — the first guy to come and say, 'Let's go get lunch' — and has a lot of intangibles."
Fitting for a guy who has been a Sounder at heart for almost 20 years.

We get out of bed for days like these: The new American Gladiator bios are up on the NBC website. The return of American Gladiators. How has it taken this long? It's a mystery almost as profound as how a show about dedicated steroid-users shooting tennis balls out of a tennis-ball-shooting-gun at casual steroid-users ever went off the air in the first place. Regardless, it could not have picked a better moment for its triumphant return to the airwaves, as the unprecedented bloodlust of the American public's taste in entertainment dovetails perfectly with the unprecedented aversion of moguls and execs to give any money to talented people. We'll be glancing at the bios throughout the day. These are the real heroes. (Sorry, Hayden.)
Crush (pictured): The only verb in the dozen, Crush "earned her well-deserved moniker by smashing opponents into submission," which kind of begs the question: why isn't she named Smash? [American Gladiators]

Starting Off: Butler opens up the Horizon League Championship this weekend, as the No. 4 seed Bulldogs host No. 5 seed Detroit in the quarterfinals on Sunday (Nov. 2) beginning at 12:00 noon in the Butler Bowl.
Butler Soccer On The Web: Butler's contest against the Titans will feature live statistics updates through Gametracker and can be viewed by clicking on the Gametracker link next to the match on the schedule at www.ButlerSports.com.
How We Got Here: Butler enters the Horizon League Championship quarterfinals as the No. 4 seed in the tournament after finishing the season with a 4-4-0 mark in league play and 12 points (3 points for a win, 1 for a tie). The Bulldogs finished just one point behind third-place Wright State (4-3-1 - 13 points). Despite finishing in a tie with Detroit (4-4-0 - 12 points), the Bulldogs earned the tie breaker and home field advantage in the first round thanks to a 3-2 victory over the Titans during the regular season.
This Weekend's Match-up: Butler enters the quarterfinals of the Horizon League Championship with a 16-12-1 (.580) all time record in the league tournament, including a 1-1-0 record last season. Sunday's contest will be the 22nd meeting between the Bulldogs and Titans, with Butler holding a 14-7-0 advantage in the all-time series. The Bulldogs defeated the Titans in Detroit on Oct. 5, as Maite Bastyr, Carrie Twyman and Molly Kruger each netted goals before holding off a late charge by the Titans for the win.
Trio Earns All-League Honors: A trio of Bulldogs was recognized with Horizon League post season awards, as junior midfielder Molly Kruger, junior defender Abbie Kaul and sophomore midfielder Courtney Lord were named to all-league teams. Kruger earned mention on the all-league first team and the all-newcomer squad, while Kaul and Lord were both tabbed to the all-league second team. Both Kaul and Lord earned their second mentions on the all-league team with Kaul earning first team recognition last season and Lord receiving a spot on the all-newcomer team a year ago.
Cox, Kruger Named To Academic All-District Squad: After performing at an exceptional level both on the playing field and in the classroom, Morgan Cox and Molly Kruger were both named to the CoSIDA/ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District V First Team. With their First Team bids, the two Butler juniors will be in the running for the Academic All-America Team, which will be voted on by CoSIDA members on Nov. 11 before being announced on Nov. 18.
Point People: The Bulldogs have gotten much of their success on offense from a pair of juniors, as Molly Kruger and Carrie Twyman are 1-2 on the squad with 25 points and 18 points, respectively. The tandem is also among the best in the Horizon League, as Kruger ranks third and Twyman places in a tie for sixth.
Helping Out: Butler has had a lot of help on its 26 goals this season, as 10 different players have combined for the Bulldogs' 30 assists. Molly Kruger leads the way with seven, while Carrie Twyman follows closely with six. Even goalkeeper Laura Baker has gotten in on the action with an assist of her own.
Looking Ahead: A win by the Bulldogs on Sunday
would send them to the semifinals to face either top-seeded Loyola
or Youngstown State at the site of the highest remaining seed on
Nov. 7.

I know this seems like yet another thread asking for help on this subject, but any I recieve would be truly appreciated.
I'm looking to get a Hybrid for around the £350 (I'm English obviously ), and I've narrowed it down to two bikes. A trek 7.1 fx or a Speciallized Sirrus.
One of the things I have to take into consideration is my weight (around 20 stone/280 pounds), hence getting a bike for fitness reasons.
It will mainly be used on cycle paths near where I live.
I really like the look of the Sirrus but concerned that with the thinner wheels it will be less stable/hardy than the FX taking into account the above. Also someone warned me they are less hardy when going slightly of road (gravel tracks etc.)
Problem is I *really* don't like the looks of the FX but love the looks of the Sirrus, but know that's just cosmetic
Any help you can provide on which is the best choice would be really helpful.
Thanks guys

Charles M. Russell
1864 – 1926
"Betwine the pen and the brush there is little diffornce but I belive the man that makes word pictures is the greater." —Charles M. Russell letter to Ralph S. Kendall, November 26, 1919
Charles Marion Russell was an accomplished painter, sculptor, illustrator, and a gifted storyteller. Russell was born March 19, 1864, in St. Louis, Missouri, on the edge of the burgeoning western frontier. As a boy, he crafted his own expectations of the American West by filling his schoolbooks with drawings of cowboys and Indians. Shortly before turning 16, he arrived in Montana, where he spent eleven years working various ranching jobs. He sketched in his free time and soon gained a local reputation as an artist. His firsthand experience as a ranch hand and his intimate knowledge of outdoor life contributed to the distinctive realism characteristic of his style.
In his Self-Portrait, painted in 1900, Russell stands with his feet planted solidly and his hat tipped back; he portrays himself as a stalwart yet open person. He wears the red Metis sash and custom made high-heeled riding boots that were a mark of his individuality, just as much as his quick wit, laconic speech, and gift as a raconteur—exhibited in his humorous short stories and illustrated letters. Russell wrote, "I am old-fashioned and peculiar in my dress. I am eccentric (that is a polite way of saying you're crazy). I believe in luck and have lots of it…Any man that can make a living doing what he likes is lucky, and I'm that." Considered a sensitive, modest, and unassuming man, Russell simply saw his great talent as merely "luck."
In September 1896, he married Nancy Cooper, who became his business manager. Under her support and guidance, Russell gained national recognition and successfully marketed his art. Russell learned from observation, and his art improved dramatically after 1903 when he and Nancy began making regular visits to New York. It was here that Russell began working with a group of experienced illustrators, where he enjoyed being part of an artistic community—something he lacked back home in Montana.
Russell painted and sculpted in his log studio adjacent to their Great Falls home, filling it with his vast collection of Native American and cowboy objects. Russell completed all of his major paintings in the studio after it was constructed in 1903. Having the talent to successfully work in many mediums, Russell created whimsical wax animals and clay and plaster figures, but he also made more formal sculptures, many of which were cast in bronze. Russell enjoyed modeling animal figures on oddly-shaped roots or branch fragments. Mountain Mother captures the playful nature of the cubs and the watchful, protective instinct of the sow.
Painting in a time when there was considerable interest in the West, Russell's works were popular because of their narrative subject matter, unique style, and dynamic action. In addition, he had the ability to paint fictional history.
American Indian women played important roles in a number of Russell paintings, such as Indian Women Moving Camp, and he produced several versions of the subject. The seasonal rounds of Plains tribes provided the artist with the opportunity of depicting the Indian women proudly riding on horseback. He used a compositional group placed at a slight diagonal to the picture plane that is similar to his subject of Indian warriors. Thus he accords the same dignity to the women's work and reveals his admiration for the resourcefulness, independence, and courage of Plains Indian women.
Charlie Russell became not only the favorite son of his home state of Montana, but also the personification of the West itself. He wanted little to do with the present and nothing to do with the future, and chose to celebrate and romanticize only the traditions and virtues of the West as he envisioned it. He wanted it known that he had taken part in the Old West, and was a better man for it. Even as an internationally-known western artist, Russell cherished—far more than his skills—his friendships and his place as a peer among common people.
Russell completed approximately 4,000 artworks during his lifetime. Living 46 years in the West, he knew his subject matter intimately, setting the standard for many western artists to follow. Charles M. Russell died in Great Falls, Montana, on October 24, 1926.
Charles Russell was William E. Weiss's (1913 – 1985) favorite artist, and he appreciated Russell's dedication to preserving the Old West. Weiss's many special gifts of Russell artwork can be enjoyed in the Whitney Western Art Museum.
The "art" of letter writing:

- In addition to being a talented painter, Russell was a skillful storyteller who often illustrated his correspondence with sketches in pen or watercolor. He sent letters to his wife Nancy, to patrons and fellow artists, saloonkeepers and cowboys. Russell sent this card from Pasadena, California to Percy Raban, a reporter for the Great Falls Tribune, as a thank-you for Raban's birthday wishes.
- Artist's letters often provide documentary evidence for historians, but Charles Russell's letters make a special art form uniting image and word. Usually light-hearted, the letters present Russell as the home-spun philosopher. The letter to Friend Tex is written to Tex McLeod, a roper in Buffalo Bill's Wild West, and contains a touching passage about Russell's adopted son.
- In 1907 Russell traveled to New York City to present his first one-man show i the art capital. His letter to newspaperman Percy Raban indicates Russell's preference for Great Falls, Montana, over the big city. While in New York, Russell saw William F. "Buffalo Bill" Cody's Wild West exhibition at Madison Square Garden. OR Russell wrote about seeing Buffalo Bill's Wild West to his friend Percy Raban, a newspaperman.
- When Russell exhibited his paintings in London, he visited the sights and wrote back home to his friends such as Percy Raban.
- Artist Philip Goodwin wrote this illustrated letter to his friend Charles M. Russell. In it he mentions illustrations he is doing for Winchester calendars.

- Joe De Yong (1894-1975) was Russell's only protege. Aspiring to be an artist, the nineteen year old De Yong sent some sketches and a photograph of his first sculptural model to Russell. In his reply, Russell gave the young artist advice on materials and methods for making a sculpture.
- In this letter to W. Hinckle Smith, a Philadelphia businessman, Russell describes two important oil paintings he displayed at New York's Folsom Galleries: The Range Mother (1908) and Sun Worshippers (1910).

I bought 2 tickets for the endzone. They said when I bought them that a new section was added. The map that came with the tickets shows sections AA, BB, CC, DD, EE for the endzone.
Does anyone know where this section is? Did they add seats on the field?
I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everyone.
"Field" will likely be a couple rows of bleachers in front of the end zone seats.

In any event, it sounds like you've got some pretty nice seats!

I might have a problem seeing the game throught the dance squad. Nevermind, no problem.
I am glad you brought this up. A lot of people on ebay are selling "field" tickets in the endzone. I wondered about it.
According to the seating chart, the "Field" seats are directly in front of the end zone bleachers. They must have added a few rows of seats at the ground level similar to KSU.
They had them last year as well. It is bleachers that have about 5 rows in them in front of the end zone bleachers. I noticed them when I was watching the TT replay last night.

I had tickets in the endzone a few years back and was not a fan of them. The only time they are good seats are when the gameplay is near the endzone. Once they get to mid field a 2 yard run and a 20 yard run all look the same from your view plus you have to turn around to see the jumbotron on replays.
Once we bowl in the south endzone there are going to be a lot more "bad" seats.
I guess section F is not going to look so bad compared to field seats.

Today and all last weekend the world weeped (or should have been weeping) over the death of a young hot chick. Mariana Bridi, an up and coming model died at the age of 20 to a serious bacterial infection.
National news websites, including G1, O Globo and Estadao, quoted authorities confirming the information.
Doctors at the Dorio Silva Hospital in Serra, in the southeastern state of Espirito Santo, earlier this month amputated Bridi's hands and feet because of irreparable tissue damage caused by a urinary infection.
She was diagnosed with the Pseudomonas aeroginosa bacterium, which can prove fatal.
For most of you, this may seem like just water passing over the bridge, but for those of us out there that need constant bathroom and bedroom material, we may have just lost something really amazing. Don't believe me? Perhaps Brazillian models Adriana Lima or Gisele Bündchen will make you change your mind.

Sydney or BustMelbourne, Fall 2011
Ok so I'm technically supposed to be working on this weird thing called finals (yeah, who actually works on finals when they get to live in Australia? This kid apparently), but seeing as I am the queen of procrastination I wanted to update on my awesome trip to Sydney! A few Hayley and I decided it would be a great idea to hop on a plane and head to Sydney. Yeah, that's right, we got our tickets less then a week before we headed out (I think I got mine on Monday night and we left Friday morning). Thankfully for this trip I didn't have to do any of the planning. Hayley's mom, being the most amazing person that she is, offered to put us up in a hotel for the weekend. Hostel are cool, hotels are better. We arrived early Friday morning, we got brunch by the bay then headed back to see if the room was ready. Once we got settled in Hayley went to the gym (she's a gym rat in the best way possible) and I went down to lay by the pool at some point in the afternoon Hayley went and talked to consierge and found us some things to do around Sydney. I have some words of advice, anytime you can go to a market, you should. I think the best presents I have found I got from the various markets I have been to (five and counting!). So yeah, we went to two different markets, one in Paddington and one down in this area of Sydney by the harbor called the rocks. I got some presents for people as well as a few things for myself. we also did a tour of the Opera House, it looks amazing from far away, but it is even more spectacular inside. The architecture is stunning. We also grabbed a fairy out to Manly beach and explored. It was a hot Saturday so the place was super crowded, but it was still nice to admire. We also got to eat some Ben & Jerry's ice cream which was a big win. We wandered around the botanical garden as well, they're right behind the Opera House so if you have a chance to go, just spend half a day exploring that area. While we were in Sydney we also got to eat at some really fun, cool places. The Winery was our first stop. It is in Surrie Hills and it is the great open wine bar with food and cocktails. Hayley and I spilt a jug of Rose Sangria that was so tasty! We also ate at another outdoor restaurant along the water. I can't remember the name, because I suck like that, but again it was all outdoor sitting with good food, good drink and good music. The atmosphere is what made it so awesome. Our final dinner was at this place called Pony, it had a kind of Australian tapas menu. The food was all so good! So in summary, if I had to pick three things you HAVE to do in Sydney it would be: 1. Go to the Paddington Market. It's only open on Saturdays, but it has quality vendors. I got a dress, some jewelry and some other gifts while I was there and I think those were the best purchases I've made this whole trip. 2. Take a tour of the Opera House. They run every half hour. There is an admissions price, but you learn so much about the history of the building and you get an up close view of the architecture inside. It is has an interesting history and is so incredibly beautiful on the inside. 3. Go to The Winery. It will make you feel like a cool young adult. However, if you want to do more then just grab a drink, call ahead and make reservations. It's frequented by the young working crowd so it gets really busy on the weekends. So there ya go. I really need to get back to one of my final papers. Bleh.

Visit Our Homemade Porno
What we have here with Our Homemade Porno is another site that claims to have filled its coffers with homemade porn videos sent in by amateur couples. Not to burst your bubble, but while many sites make such claims, most of them haven't actually received their content from real couples and instead just filmed their own amateur porn scenes, or taken them from elsewhere.
The good news is that some of the porn I saw on OurHomemadePorno did actually look like true amateur/homemade couples banging. However, saying "some" implies that most isn't. And that was confirmed when I saw two different scenes filmed in the same room, on the same bed, with the same guy, but with two different girls.
One of the scenes even had a write-up about how the guy had promised to hide the video, but he had shown it at work and then sold it to the site. Does anyone believe that? Especially since the site would need permission from both participants and proof of age, etc.
There are 111 amateur videos and while there are some lesbian and solo scenes, most of them are one-on-one hardcore sessions often shot POV style or with the camera sitting on a tripod or the nightstand, etc. Each scene also comes with a set of vid caps should you want to give it a quick look that way.
The movies generally come with Flash and Windows Media streaming and download options in both clips and full-length files. (I did come across some movies without the Flash option and a couple are posted in two separate parts with no way of downloading the entire thing.) The video quality is average and according to the dates on the scenes, they haven't updated in over a year now.
Your membership comes with access to the entire five-site Homemade Video Pass network, which brings with it sites such as Stolen Porn Videos and Real Hidden Porn. As you can probably tell from the sitenames, you'll be getting more amateur/homemade-themed action.
When you take the collection and the bonuses into account, I can see it maybe being worth getting a membership to Our Homemade Porno for real fans of the genre. The score really suffers from the low-quality material and lack of updates, though.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

Meets MWF 1100am-1200pm MEZ B0.306
(also listed as CTI 335, GOV 335M)
Course description:
A study of major alternative approaches, elaborated by the greatest political theorists, to the question of the moral character of international relations.
The basic aim of the course is twofold: 1) to gain a better understanding of what kind of justice and law exists among nations; and 2) to gain a better understanding of what justice itself means, in human relations, as its nature is revealed under the stress of the intensely competitive international arena, always overshadowed by the threat of war.
We will examine the original, foundational philosophic arguments for: the classical republican struggle for and against empire (Thucydides); Christian Just War theory (Aquinas and Vitoria); Islamic Jihad Theory (The Koran and Hadith; Shaybani, Alfarabi, Avicenna, Ibn Khaldun); the moral supremacy of independent national sovereignty (Hobbes); globalizing moral community achieved through commercialization (Montesquieu); and world legal order achieved through international legal organization (Kant).
We will try to uncover the hidden philosophic foundations of our contemporary ways of thinking, and confront our assumptions with challenges from earlier, alien ways of conceiving the world.
While we will not forget contemporary issues, we will try to transcend our passionate biases, and view our own immediate situation from a liberating distance, by taking as our chief empirical focus the philosophic historian Thucydides' dramatic presentation of The Peloponnesian War—a moral as well as military struggle pitting the imperialism of one of history's greatest democracies (Athens) against the anti-imperialism of one of the most conservative and pious aristocracies in history (Sparta).

This book aims to help readers, through study of key texts in the history of political philosophy, begin to move toward a position from which they can freely judge for themselves whether and to what extent they should embrace, or take a critical distance from, the principles underlying and animating today's civic culture. The authors stimulate and respond to a thirst in readers to confront and wrestle with the most fundamental questions. The thinkers and works of the past are studied here not as objects of antiquarian curiosity but as powerful voices that challenge us to join in searching debates. The point is not to learn about these thinkers and texts but to learn from them. This overall aim dictates the selective choice of texts interpreted. Every chapter is a provocative invitation and guide to the reader's own deeper encounter with each great philosopher.
Aristophanes has been said to recreate the life of ancient Athens more convincingly than any other author.
—The Review of Metaphysics
"Pangle's close textual analysis time and again sheds new light on passages that scholars have been citing for years. His interpretive lens helps to make sense of them in ways that genuinely advance our knowledge of Montesquieu's own project, the rise of liberal modernity, and the contemporary dilemmas of secularism."—Sharon Krause, Brown University
"Pangle's work is a must read for Montesquieu scholars, and for those who want to explore further the relation between religion, on the one hand, and liberty and commerce on the other. By stating his case so strongly, Pangle has given us much to consider on all of these fronts."—Société Montesquieu
"If Enlightenment is 'man's release from his self-incurred tutelage,' especially in 'matters of religion,' Montesquieu is a more central figure than many have realized in the Enlightenment's project of religious emancipation. Such is the theme of Thomas L. Pangle's [book] focusing on the theological assumptions that inform the political superstructure of Montesquieu's analysis—a dimension of his thought that is underappreciated, if not entirely neglected, by scholars attending to more salient features of the work. Scrutiny at the 'theological-political' level reveals that underlying Montesquieu's well-known commitment to political moderation and legislative restraint is a vision of man and the historical process that is among the more radical instances of Enlightenment thought."—Perspectives on Political Science

Just wanted to get some feedback on this issue. I have an MTB and it takes about 1 hour to do my 11.1 mile route. I have a Road bike and if I extend the route , I can cover 13.5 miles in one hour. The overall effort seems to be about the same.
My goal is to try to exercise for 1 hour each day at least 6 days a week. Do you think it really matters which of the 2 bikes I use? The slower bike is nice in the winter since it has slicks, fenders, a lot of reflectors, lights, etc. The road bike is better forthe dry days.
I also have a recumbent but have not found the distance yet for the one hour time limit. I live in a very hilly area so this is a major part of my rides.
Thanks for the input.

Changing my baby has become a wrestling match. What can I do?
My 6-month-old won't lie still for his diaper change. He tries to roll over and grab everything. I've tried giving him toys and singing to him but all he does is fuss and squirm. Now he has a stomach bug and I have to change ten diapers a day, plus take the extra time for diaper rash ointment. Help!

I have the same problem with my 8 month old. Because he can roll over and crawl, he feels that he needs to do it at every chance that he gets. I find it easier to keep him in one place by giving him "something that he's not supposed to have" that's not harmful, of course. I use a small, broken calculator. Interesting to him, yet not harmful and I ONLY use it for changing time. But I think I'll use the advise to teach him by telling him NO that he needs to be still for the changing.posted 03/23/2004 by a BabyCenter Member
Do you have a mirror near your changing table? My 4-month-old LOVES the mirror and will hold still to stare at and talk to 'the baby' for LONG periods of time!posted 03/22/2004 by a BabyCenter Member
One thing that I've found to work is to change our son in the room wherever he happens to be. I keep his diaper bag well stocked and just grab it when I need it. That way he doesn't feel like he's leaving "the action", and many times he can keep playing with the toy he's playing with while I cleverly change him at the same time. Also, I've found when I change him on his changing table, it almost seems to be worse as not only am I struggling to keep him on his back, but also from falling onto the floor!posted 03/22/2004 by a BabyCenter Member
Changing my son's diaper was always a struggle. If he was being particularly rambunctious, or if the diaper was really messy, we would use the "knee bridge". Lay him on the floor, on a changing mat, as you sit beside him, with one leg over his chest. Remember to use it as a bridge, don't put any of your body weight on your child, just close enough to keep him from squirming away. Don't worry it does get better!!posted 03/22/2004 by a BabyCenter Member
WE have an 8mo old boy that does the same thing. I have found if I give him a small toy to focus on, the changeing isn't as bad.posted 03/22/2004 by a BabyCenter Member
My 7 and a half month old went through this too for a while. My husband and I were fortunate enough to be home together when it started and one of us would hold him down while the other did the nappy change. After 2 weeks of telling him no and making him stay still, he is now the easiest baby in the world to change. He hardly ever tries to roll over and if he does, a simple no gets him back on track. The trick is being consistant when training him. If you let him roll sometimes and not others he will never learn to stay still.posted 03/21/2004 by a BabyCenter Member
Definetly giving something to hold helps! I was getting the diaper changed fine, but my son has exzema on his legs and was scratching it bloody everytime the pants were off to change the diaper. I gave him a plastic book to hold and we're all good! The Exzema is even healed. Funny pic at www.bananasbaby.blogspot.com.posted 01/07/2010 by AnnaEB
I LOVE the ideas about putting toes or legs gently on baby's shoulders while changing...but he does do better on the changing table sometimes. I'll try to see if it works. But I wanted to give this tip for diaper rash creams with a squirming, rolling boy who really likes to grab himself...put the clean diaper on first, then put the diaper cream on your hand and stick your hand in the diaper to rub the cream on the needed area. Baby can't grab and smear! :)posted 12/30/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
pottery barn sells a changing table mat that has very high edges that is excellent at preventing our baby from rolling over / squirming too much during diaper changes. I would highly recommend it!posted 12/05/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
I agree with many moms on here that say to give him a toy. That is the best thing, my son loves his hair brush?! He loves to chew on anything he gets in his hands so diapers are out of the question. I usually let him sit up on the changing table right before I lay him down to change his diaper and while I am laying him down I tickle his tummy or cheek or neck with my lips on the way down. That gets him laughing and he calms down. Another thing to do is to take everything off the changing table that isn't absolutely necessary. Good luck I know how you feel, just remember babies sometimes catch on and after that happens you have to find a new "trick" to use.posted 11/24/2009 by petro84

IDC: Netbooks Fuel European PC Market
The US market researcher IDC has recorded an increase of 1.8% in European PC sales for the last quarter of 2008. A weak rise compared to 2007.
Having enjoyed regular two figure growth in the past, the IDC sees the EMEA region split in two, with Western Europe providing acceptable figures while results in the east, Russia and the Ukraine in particular, proved disappointing.
A strong demand for portable devices, especially during the Christmas period, had a positive influence on overall sales, although desktops suffered under the continuing cannibalisation-effect of portables. IDC sees continued growth for the netbook market in 2009, while sales of PCs and notebooks expected to hover at current levels. One reason for this is the hesitant company invest ion as a reaction to the credit crisis.
Manufacturer HP extended its market lead in the third quarter, with a growth of 13% compared to the year before, with Acer next, followed by Dell and Asus. Netbook inventor Asus saw its sales, also thanks to netbooks, grow by 79%. With a plus of 0.4%, Dell seem to be running on the spot and Toshiba's rise of 42% landed them in fifth place.

DHA supplement pills
DHA Neuromins 100 mg
120 Softgels
Docosahexaenoic acid
Source Naturals
February 25, 2016
Docosahexaenoic acid, DHA Neuromins 100 mg, is a Dietary Supplement derived from algae.
Docosahexaenoic acid DHA Neuromins is derived from algae, not fish or fish oil, hence it is a vegetarian source. Vegans and vegetarians recognize the importance of long chained fatty acids but with to have a vegetarian source rather than from fish. Docosahexaenoic acid DHA is an omega-3 fatty acid which plays a role in nerve and brain development, especially during the crucial period of fetal development and infancy. Pregnant mothers transfer DHA directly to the fetus to support rapid brain and retina development hence the role of this important fatty acid in eye health and vision. DHA is supplied to the newborn via mother's breast milk. Some people have lower concentrations of DHA due to low-fat or vegetarian diets.

DHA supplement questions
Q. Can a DHA supplement be used by children?
A. Yes, as long as the dosage is limited to one or two capsules a day. We also carry a Children's DHA formula product.
Q. Do I need to take more vitamin E if I'm taking a DHA supplement?
A. Most likely yes, but only small amounts are needed. Since DHA is a highly unsaturated fatty acid, it would seem cautious to supplement with at least 5 to 10 units of vitamin E a day if you're taking a gram or more of an epa dha combination. This small amount of vitamin E can be found in almost all multivitamin supplements.
Q. I have been looking into using EPA and DHA, yet I am looking for a purely vegetarian source. I have found vegetarian DHA supplements are much more available than EPA supplements. I see in fact that there is a vegetarian DHA supplement, but not an EPA supplement. Is the DHA supplement sufficient, without another supplemental or major dietary source of EPA?
A. We feel using both EPA and DHA is preferable than just using DHA Neuromins by itself, although there may be people who do just fine taking DHA Neuromins by itself.
Find out about the latest DHA and vitamin research. If you buy a DHA supplement along with fish oils, you may use them together at one softgel a day. If you would like to take a higher dosage of DHA and fish oils, discuss with your health care provider.

I would love some insight into the error I am seeing in Safari and Chrome with the following line of code:

Chrome reports:

In FireFox, the code runs fine. Also, this code runs fine in each of the three browsers:

Chrome and Safari have no issues with this code:

setTimeout(say_hello, 250);
What is special about
window.location.reload that causes this error?

House Democrats pushed through a $50 billion bill for the Iraq war Wednesday that would require President Bush to start bringing troops...
WASHINGTON — House Democrats pushed through a $50 billion bill for the Iraq war Wednesday that would require President Bush to start bringing troops home in coming weeks with a goal of ending combat by December 2008.
The legislation, passed 218-203, was largely a symbolic jab at Bush, who has begun reducing force levels but opposes a congressionally mandated timetable on the war. And while the measure was unlikely to pass in the Senate — let alone overcome a presidential veto — Democrats said they wanted voters to know they weren't giving up.
The White House pledged to veto the bill.
The bill represents about a quarter of the $196 billion Bush requested for combat operations in the 2008 budget year, which began Oct 1.

It would compel an unspecified number of troops to leave Iraq within 30 days, a requirement Bush is on track to meet as he begins in coming weeks to reverse the 30,000-troop buildup he ordered earlier this year. It also sets a goal of ending combat by Dec. 15, 2008.
The measure also would effectively bar the CIA from using harsh interrogation techniques.
In the Washington delegation, Rep. Brian Baird broke ranks with his fellow Democrats, joining the Republicans in opposing the measure; the other Democrats voted for it.
Golf's role probed in Alaska politics
The Justice Department is investigating whether an Alaska oil contractor used golf tournaments to funnel cash to Rep. Don Young, people close to the corruption investigation said.
The contractor, Rick Smith, told investigators that Young personally received cash at the events. Once an important ally who helped raise tens of thousands of dollars for Young's election committee, Smith has become a key government informant.
Smith allowed FBI agents to record his telephone calls with the 18-term Republican congressman in a corruption sting. The former VECO vice president has pleaded guilty to bribing state lawmakers to support oil-friendly legislation. In September, Colorado-based CH2M Hill, bought VECO for more than $400 million.
The case has spread from Alaska to Capitol Hill, where Young and Alaska Sen. Ted Stevens are under scrutiny. Young and Stevens are influential figures in setting U.S. energy policy.

More and more films premiere on Video on Demand -- if they don't simply bypass a theatrical release altogether. Because VOD reviews are often scarce and hard to find, Criticwire created VODetails, a recurring column to help you figure out whether a new VOD release is worth your hard-earned dollar. This time we're looking at "Wild in the Streets," a documentary about an ancient game -- not an exploitation film about a hippie rock star who becomes President of the United States.
Director: Peter Baxter
Official Synopsis: "Narrated by Sean Bean ('Lord of the Rings,' 'Game of Thrones'). Every winter, the people of Ashbourne, UK, gather in the center of their town to renew the longest running sports rivalry on earth. The game is called Shrovetide Football and it is the origin of Soccer, Football, and Rugby. Each team consists of hundreds if not thousands of people. The field of play... the town itself. The object of the game is simple: get a 4-pound ball to one of 2 goals that lay 3 miles apart."
Michael Rechtshaffen, Hollywood Reporter:
"An engagingly oddball sports documentary that's as much about community as it is about competition."
"By the time Baxter's joined in the skirmish with handheld cameras, you'll be hooked."
"On my personal rating scale of with '5' being drop everything and see the movie now... this movie earns a '4.'"
"Other than a passing nod to the social friction generated between modern suburban trends and Ashbourne's traditional community values, Baxter is content to immerse us in Shrovetide's storied history and give us a front row seat to the giddy spectacle of neighbors who wrestle, trample and pummel one another in the name of a beloved custom."
Scott Beggs, Film School Rejects:
"Much like the 2-day game itself... a fun, yet forgettable diversion."
"Wild in the Streets" is now available on iTunes.

Utica 64, Houghton 42 – Women's Basketball Final
Utica, NY (2/8/2013) – The Utica College women's basketball team avenged a mid-season loss at Houghton by jumping out to an early lead and never looking back in the rematch Friday night as the Pioneers topped the visiting Highlanders 64-42 on the hardwood at the Clark Athletic Center. Sophomore forward Samantha Stayer (Allegany, NY/Allegany-Limestone) continued her excellent play, netting 14 of her 15 points in the first half, while senior Meghan Fiore (Epping, NH/Epping) added a game-high 16 points in what would appear to be her final home game as a Pioneer.
The Pioneers (12-11, 7-5 Empire 8) have now won three of their last four contests headed into the final weekend of the regular season on the road at Ithaca and Elmira next Friday (6 p.m.) and Saturday (2 p.m.). UC recently knocked off second place Hartwick College, 64-61, in front of a state-wide television audience on Time Warner Cable Sports Tuesday night. Utica currently sits in third place in the conference, but they have played one more game than both Stevens and Fisher, who sit at 6-5 in conference competition.
The Highlanders, a provisional member of the conference, have now lost eight of their last nine contests and dropped to 9-13 overall on the year. Houghton has struggled on the road all season, winning just one of ten contests when traveling.
The Pioneers burst out to an 18-11 lead, behind a combined 17 points from Fiore, Stayer and Marissa Kahane (Sayville, NY/Sayville) in the first 10:50 of the contest. The Pioneers did not slow as the half approached and at one point Stayer knocked down three consecutive lay-ups, to spark a 15-2 Utica run in a span of 7:10, to give Utica a convincing 35-17 lead at the half.
UC also scored the first nine points of the second half, to cap an 18-0 run that started in the first half and spanned into the second, for a total of 5:12. Utica kept the pressure on and led by as many as 32 points, 61-29, with 4:41 left in the game.
Kaitlin Hammersley and Emily Cronin combined for nine points in a 13-0 run for the Highlanders down the stretch, but it proved to be too late as UC cruised to the 22 point victory. Maisie Pipher hauled in a game-high 14 rebounds and she also added three blocks for Houghton.
Marissa Kahane (Sayville, NY/Sayville) provided a nice spark off the bench for the Pioneers as she drilled 3-of-4 attempts from the floor and 2-of-3 form behind the arc for a total of eight points. Senior Brittany Baudanza (Staten Island, NY/Staten Island Tech) also chipped in with a team-best eight rebounds and five points.
Utica scored 19 points off of 23 Highlander turnovers and senior Alyssa Filkins (Castleton, NY/Maple Hill) registered five assists, to raise her conference-leading average to 4.7 per game. Senior Megan Browning (Epping, NH/Epping) got the starting nod on senior night and did not disappoint, as she knocked down a second half 3-pointer, much to the delight of the Pioneer contingent.
Junior Bridget Greenwald (Wayne, NJ/Wayne Hills) added five rebounds and four points for Utica.

The Pioneers pushed their lead back to eight points, 29-21, but the home team responded by outscoring UC 7-1 in the final 2:36 of the first half to set the score at 30-28, advantage Utica, at the half.
The lead changed hands five times in the first ten minutes of the second half before Naz used an 8-1 run in less than three minutes to give the home team a six point lead, 49-43, with 7:55 left in regulation.
