If you can get past the circus and past the character defects, if you can get past Tiger Woods' bizarre obsession with the Navy SEALs, and that three of his alleged former mistresses (porn stars) are releasing a movie Tuesday ("Notorious Tales of the World's Greatest Golfer," and we're just assuming it's not about No. 1-ranked Luke Donald), and that his former swing coach is pimping a book, here's one undeniable truth: Woods is gold — for the PGA Tour, for the sports world, for us.
Other golfers tire of answering questions about him, but they know who moves the meter. They know who sells tickets and sponsorships and ultimately brings more money and attention to the sport, and therefore them.
Fans may be divided on him – some still clinging to the being (not human) who won 14 majors and 71 Tour events in 14 years, others refusing to let go of the being (less than human?) who burned bridges with his arrogance, rudeness, infidelities and Nike-packaged phoniness.
But Woods' win at the Arnold Palmer Invitational last week should be considered welcome news, even for those who want him to do a royal face plant this week at the Masters.
He makes things interesting. He makes you watch. He creates drama. He ignites galleries.
He makes everybody ask two questions: 1) Who's leading? 2) Where's Tiger?
Nobody else does that.
Golf purists may not care and probably prefer otherwise: But Woods, as one of those few stars who transcends his sport, will bring eyes to the TV this week from those who otherwise find golf kind of boring.
"Say what you want — good, bad or indifferent — you're writing about him because he's the greatest golfer in the world," said Billy Andrade, the long-time Atlanta pro and now analyst for the Golf Channel. "Any time he shows up, he's Elvis. He's a rock star. I remember taking him around for a practice round when he was 16 at the Honda Classic, and he was that way back then. He's a game-changer."
We'll learn this week about the significance of Woods' first win in over two years. We'll see if he can drive straight and avoid three-putts and meltdowns, like those we witnessed at the Atlanta Athletic Club in August, when he failed to make the cut of the PGA Championship (77-73-Hartsfield).
We'll see how the kid who no longer is a kid (36) can get around for four days at Augusta National after four knee surgeries and with a tender Achilles.
If Woods succeeds, the thought of catching Jack Nicklaus in career majors wins (he's four behind) is within reach. It's a storyline, better than some of the others we've witnessed.
Two years ago, it was the TMZ Masters, with stories lingering from Woods' split with his wife, the one-car/one-tree collision, stories of porn stars and affairs and a plane pulling banners over hallowed Augusta National.
Joslyn James, one of his alleged exes, picked Masters week to display her store-bought wares at the Pink Pony. (She briefly wore a green jacket that week. He didn't.)
This year, it's Hank Haney, Woods' former swing coach of six years, who's dancing on stage with his book, "The Big Miss." It was perfectly timed for release last week.
The book has a few interesting insights. But that doesn't make Haney any better than James. Both are looking to profit. The only difference between the two is breast size.
Haney writes that Tiger is cheap. He writes that Tiger ate his dinner fast, left the table before he was finished and wouldn't get him a Popsicle out of the freezer. Move over, Michener.
Haney waxes on about Woods' fascination with the SEALs, suggesting that became more important to him than golf or the pursuit of majors. He contends Woods' well-chronicled knee problems can be traced to several days of training (including parachute jumps) with military personnel. He writes Woods even went on long jogs in army boots around the posh golf resort of Isleworth.
Probably petrified the poor ducks.
Haney sent Woods an email: "Focus on your destiny, and that isn't flushing bad guys out of buildings in Iraq. Just play the video games some more."
OK. That's funny.
"I think for Tiger it was more the challenge of thinking, 'I can do this,'" Andrade said of Woods' SEALs fascination. "But come on — we're golfers, not triathletes. Stop training like Mr. Universe. All you have to do is get that little ball in the hole — and the little ball has no idea if you lifted weights or ran five miles."
The story has changed, even somewhat mutated. But Tiger Woods is still the story.

Yeah, he's still "the show" for all you jock-sniffer reporters. Most of the rest of us, with morals and values (remember those), have been over this bozo for a long time. He was ultra-overexposed anyway even before revealing himself to the world as an unethical lowlife. Now you guys all expect everyone just to jump right back on the Tiger-lovefest-train with you because you want us to. I watch golf because I am a fan of the game and want to see the pros play, not because I have a man-crush on him like you news guys. I enjoy tournaments much better when he is nowhere near the leaderboard.
March 31st, 2012

Definetely, he is the man. I will not sit infront of the tv to watch golf if he is not in the leaderboard. That is clear to me. I want to see someone who has a chance of shattering records. That is why I am supporting him.

Of all that's been written about Woods, this has got to be the best line ever:
"The book has a few interesting insights. But that doesn't make Haney any better than James. Both are looking to profit. The only difference between the two is breast size.:.
I am a fan of Tiger Woods, will always be a fan. I don't care what he did with his personal life. I am not a saint – even saints weren't saints. I appreciate being able to witness one of the greatest athletes of our time.

Tiger is the best. He always was, and always will be until he decides that his playing days are over. Then the golfing world will have to beat the bushes to find someone as fascinating as Tiger. He no longer needs the money, so now he is playing for his record. All of you who call him names, would have done the same in his situation.

"for us?" At this point, that is a journalistic troll. People like me — who lost any rooting interest in Woods two years ago — are supposed to react and leave a lot of comments, showing how passionate we are about all things Tiger Woods. Right? Except I don't have any "root against" interest either.
Here's the scoop. I'm burned out on the guy. I find a hundred angles in golf more interesting, and you should know them better than me. Woods, to me, is like Lance Armstrong. I was a huge supporter of Armstrong because he was winning a lot (I guess that was the reason; he was an official "big deal," so like a lemming I followed when the sports media told me I needed to care). He also had a great backstory. But… it turned out he was almost certainly using PEDs. Do I think his Tour de France wins were tainted? Absolutely. Was his heroic story a lie? Yes, that's my understanding. Does it "eat me up" that he holds the record of Tour wins over earlier more-deserving guys? No.
The difference is that I am a golf fan, and I was, at best, a marginal bicycling fan. So, now that Woods is a tainted, fallen "hero," I'm no longer all that into propping up the corpses of his bogus image. I'm ready to move into golf's next era. It annoys me that I have to shovel through articles like this one, which are repetitive and formulaic.
Now, you know as well as I do, to be accurate you would have written, "For marginal golf fans, Woods is still the show." For them, as with me and cycling, I needed Lance Armstrong to be involved — because I don't know a single other name.
Anyway, maybe I've just outgrown sports journalism. Maybe the target demographic needs sportwriters to use crayons and create drama and strife and conflict, and otherwise rouse the rabble. Me, I just want to read about golfers who don't have asterisks plastered all over their results. I want to follow golf because I love golf. I love a golf tournament the way I love a movie — no past or present. I judge it on its own merits. I don't care if it wins an Oscar, or if the director can "set a record" and become the "greatest of all time." If that's the only way the golf media thinks it can drum up interest, we need a new golf media.

I'm amazed at the amount of animosity STILL being directed towards Tiger Woods. I, by no means condone his adulterous actions, but I'm not understanding the difference between him and any OTHER person, male or female, black or WHITE…Example, Bill Clinton cheated on his wife in the WHITE HOUSE, and it still didn't produce the same amount of venomously hateful feedback that Tigers

ESPN has a crush on Tiger. No one says, "I wonder how many shots of the lead Tiger is". But ESPN talks about him anyway ignoring the actual leaders. ESPN ignores the actual good golfers. Karma is hard on Tiger and he deserves it.

People may not like him but the PGA tour and the TV netwroks love him and need him. TV ratings stink when he is not in the field and the last 2 years have not been good for the tour. He may not be the best golfer in the world but he is the most valuable.
March 31st, 2012
6:38 pm
There is no difference between Haney & James… James wanted to make money from their ….. and Haney wanted to make money with his foolish brain. In future, pro-golfers will think twice before selecting him as a coach. If he has any decency and class then he should have written about the Tiger's golf game. After all he is a golf coach, not a family psychologist or personal adviser.

Jeff, will you bring us a pimento cheese sandwich back from Augusta? We think those things are delicious. If you talk to Tiger, let him know that pimento cheese can be used as a poultice. It may be what he needs to relieve itching and problems associated with his lifestyle. We have missed blogging here lately but we've been uncomfortable ever since we started having meniscus problems. Passing a meniscus is not for a sissy.

I have to admit that I really liked Tiger Woods when he first appeared on the golf scene and started winning all those majors and non majors. Then the incident with his wife and the Escalade, numerous porn stars, swing coaches and F-bombs have pretty much soured me on the guy plus he always acts like a first class jerk. Finally, as a U.S. Navy veteran it was interesting to read how he almost left the tour to "become" a Navy Seal. When I was in (which was many years ago) you had to really be the best of the best to even be considered to be a Seal not only physically but mentally. He may have been selected but it would have been a tougher in my opinion than all of his golf accomplishments plus the fame and money would not even remotely compare to his stature on the PGA tour. I wish him well.

If you can't make a good argument then play the race card. We glorify JFK and Clinton as good politicians but certainly not their infidelity issues. We glorify Tiger as a great golfer but certainly not a good husband who was faithful to his wife just like JFK and Clinton.

Hope he never wins another Major!!! Has nothing to do with him being Black or being an Adulterer. Guy is arrogant, disrespectful, not humble. I could go on and on. I have specific examples of things Tiger has done at other tournaments and the way he has treated club employees. Guy has ZERO class! I care not to divulge.

I met Tiger when he was an arrogant 18 year old freshman at Stanford. He was a double barreled jerk with a lot of talent. He was never the person that the slick packaging by Nike and ESPN, and others purported him to be. There was golf before him and his game's demise will not be the end of golf. It will be better for the true lover of the game. I think the moral to this story is to look behind the facade of the packaging.

Well, Ty Cobb wasn't very nice either, or Babe Ruth. I watch Tiger because at his best, he's the finest who ever played the game. No one else in golf ever had his distance, his touch around the greens, his shot-making skills. The truth is that this old, fat white guy has very little interest in a tournament if Tiger Woods isn't in it and contending. I don't care if he sleeps with a goat, and I'm well aware of his moral failings. The truth is that I became even more of a fan after the whole world turned against him. If I wanted moral instruction, I'd go to church. If I want to see wonderful golf, I'll watch Tiger Woods. And we must remember that the finest in their sports are seldom moral exemplars. For every Jack Nicklaus there are a thousand Lance Armstrongs or Mike Tysons.

Stupid to compare golf during Bobby Jones era and today. Golf was a game played only by the wealthy. Bobby Jones beat a bunch of rich boys. There are tens of millions more people that play golf now than then. The competition is exponentially more difficult now.
March 31st, 2012
10:34 pm
Bobby Who? all relivant you tool! you can only beat what is before you! he dominated golf. If you knew anything about golf you would know. My guess is that you are about a 25 handicapper who plays at Candler Park. If you even play at all! Stick to NBA hoops! you probably know something about that.

Only a gutless moron would watch, much less pull for, a sleeze like Tiger.
He is a despicable person. Only when he is gone from the game will I ever watch a tourney again. Unless it's a tourney in which he is not participating.
March 31st, 2012

March 31st, 2012
10:41 pm
Yes you can only beat what is put before you. And for Bobby Jones it was a bunch of rich boys. As a native Atlantan I have nothing against Bobby Jones. He is an important figure in the history of golf. But I stand by my statement that it is stupid to compare golf in that era and now. There is no comparison. Who knows what Bobby Jones could do against today's competition? But certainly not as well as against the limited competition of his time.

Read this regarding level of competition between Tiger's era and Jack's. We're not talking about only 3 or 4 excellent players that have a chance to win every week. Today any of the 100+ teeing it up is highly skilled and can win on any given week. The $takes are much higher today and the pros take it much more seriously than ever before.

I've disliked him for well over 10 years. Adultery is irrelevant. Race is as well. I root for the field against Eldrick. Always.

If you talk about competition between the eras, don't forget to talk about the difference in golf equipment. Tiger would not be hitting 300+ drives with the equipment from Jones' era! Nor would anyone else today.
March 31st, 2012
11:38 pm
Tell the truth,
Huh? I am not comparing Tiger's driving distance now to Bobby Jones' during the 20s-30s. I am comparing the level of competition that Tiger faces today and the level of competition from Jones era. Jones won his 13 major championships against lesser competition. And if you're counting amateur championships, Tiger has 3 of those in addition to his 14 pro championships.

Thanks, Jeff. I hope that I never take your writing for granted. Tough to write about a man with such contradictions.
Used to subscribe to the paper for a few reasons….Braves, Bisher, Schultz and the Vent. Have long since tired of the Liberal slant and bias by this paper. It's a shame how journalism doesn't report the news, but is a an arm of govt. I will not participate in propagating lies. Jeff, you are one of the main reasons I check out the paper, knowing that you might have a new column. Humorous and yet factual.

I was there in Augusta in 1986 when Nickalus won his final major at the ripe old age of 46. The golfing heavens shook, the earth moved, and even casual fans knew that something especially wonderful had just happened.
And then, mediocrity set in. From April 1986 until Tiger's first major, the sport was nothing more than a weekly chance to watch Greg Norman choke away tournaments or guys (from places we'd never visit) win tournaments only to fade into golf oblivion.
In steps Tiger; a searingly white hot flash of lightning that kept striking again and again. He was young, hip, loud, and really damn good. He didn't choke… he made you choke. The simple fact is, whenever Tiger shows up… history is likely to be made. There was a time when he won 45% of the tournaments in which he played. He won four consecutive majors. Based on his play two weeks ago, it could very well happen all over again. He is the golfing event of this generation.
If icons are to be judged by their extracurricular life, okay. But, in fairness, let's open the books on everyone. I have yet to find anyone willing to measure a Mantle or a Sinatra by the same standard as Tiger.
Perhaps the only line over which Tiger egregiously stepped is color.
April 1st, 2012
7:46 am
As a golfer and a golf fan I have to watch Tiger. He is arguably ahead of Nicklaus at this stage in his career. But the record still shows that Jack is the best of all time because of 18 Majors. For me, I like the sanctity of golf and the fact that a good man, good husband and Dad currently owns the record as greatest. Tiger has to work on that some. But I'll be watching. I can't not watch and I can't not wonder if Tiger is going to win 5 more Majors before he is done.
April 1st, 2012

Love to see him lose,,,, hope he never breaks a great PERSON's record like the Bear. Please miss a 3 footer to lose the Masters…. they deserve better than Tiger,,,maybe a Rory

This Mother's day we celebrate our mothers and remember that being a mother is a hard job. A mother often works tirelessly to take care of her children and will do anything to be assured of their well being.
But at FOCUS North America we also remember the many working poor mothers who struggle alone; The mothers and their children living in abusive environments; the homeless mothers and their children; the mothers who come to our ministries daily who want to be able to feed and nourish their children but can't seem to make ends meet in this difficult economy.
I often encounter guests to our food pantry who tell me that the supplemental food they receive each monday or the hot nutritious meal that they and their children receive is how they survive. More than just the food, the time we spend serving them helps them have hope for a better tomorrow.
This Mother's day we also stop to consider that according to the Census Bureau survey, most of the families that are at greatest risk of going hungry are headed by single mothers.
As unbelievable as it is in the midst of our abundance in North America there are countless hungry and hopeless families.
According to the Food Research and Action Center, almost 23% of all children and over 14% of all adults in America live in households with insecure food. This means that regularly some of our neighbors (even some of the people we may attend church with)find themselves going without meals or eating cheaper, less nutritious food to stretch every dollar. Seniors often are in the terrifying predicament of having to choose between the medicines they need or food.
But together we can provide help and hope to those who are most in need. Through our own sacrificial giving, our local church ministries and through coordinated pan-Orthodox national ministries like FOCUS North America we can, and are, providing hope for the hopeless and food for the hungry.
This weekend as you stop to remember your mother on Mothers Day please also pray for the lonely and desperate mothers who are in need and whose tireless hard work to survive often goes unnoticed. Your gifts to FOCUS North America give hope to mothers in need. Thank you!
For Those We Serve,
Fr. Justin

The three previous times St. George's and Lind-Ritzville-Sprague had gone head-to-head this season, it wasn't even close. St. George's pocketed double-digit wins each time. This time, though, it was different.
This was for a berth in the state championship game.
Even though Lind-Ritzville-Sprague made the game a nail-biter, it was again St. George's who got the best of the Broncos, beating their league foes 55-52 to advance to the boys 2B state title game.
It went down to the wire, though, and the Broncos had a late lead, 52-50, with under two minutes to play. But Dragons junior Corey Spalding responded with a 3-ball to put St. George's back up, 53-52.
Lind-Ritzville-Sprague couldn't respond and turned the ball over on a shot-clock violation with 1:13 remaining.
Still down one, the Broncos forced two missed shots, but the Dragons pulled down a pair of offensive boards and Lind-Ritzville-Sprague was forced to foul. Erik Muelheims knocked down two from the charity stripe for the final margin.
"He's a clutch kid, he's going to get things done when it's down the stretch," St. George's coach Ryan Peplinski of Muelheims.
The game wasn't quite over until Colby Starring's 3-point attempt failed to find the bottom of the bucket as the buzzer sounded.
St. George's had a comfortable 37-28 lead at halftime, but shot just 28.6 percent after intermission.
"I thought that's as good a defensive game as they've ever played against us," Peplinski said. "You've got to give them a lot of credit, they did a great job all the way around."
Muelheims had 21 points and Dexter Sienko had 20 points and 10 rebounds for the Dragons. Starring led the Broncos with 14 points.
St. George's faces fellow Northeast 2B league member Colfax in the championship game at 9:00 p.m. on Saturday.

New studentbody officers elected last Friday are: Roger Wise, activities; Bob Hunter, executive; Perry Perea, president; Brent Wilson, finance and Dennis Heiner, legislative. Perea, Hunter, Heiner, Wilson, Wise, Elected in Record Vote The suffocating snake of apathy that so commonly chokes Weber State College had little chance to rear it head last week as a record number of students went to the polls to vote for 1967 studentbody officers.Perry Perea, a pre-medical student, was elected studentbody president with a total of 902 votes. His opponent, Dennis DeBoer, received 558 votes in the final ballot-' ing. Elected executive vice-president was Robert A. Hunter, 1966 "Acorn'- yearbook editor and senior class Senator. Hunter received 1037 votes with his opponent, Roger Petersen, receiving 425 ballots. Other 1967-68 officers are: Dennis Heiner, legislativevice-president; Roger Wise, activities vice-president; and Brent Wilson, financial vice-president. ml Tom Welch and Judy Willmore last week's final elections. : r inn i i ii mi im i iii a iii iiirnwiiff 'i rTT i mi'imiini ir m i ii m n i It was a close race between Wilson and Ron Parker, 1966 junior class Senator, with Wilson winning by a 45-vote margin, 753 to 708. Another tight contest was the legislative vice -presidential race with Heiner beating F. L. Chase 770-669 votes. Mac Stevensen, "Acorn" publicity manager, was defeated by Wise, 1966 Tallyman and chairman of the WSC Games and Recreations Committee, 802 votes to 654. Elected 1967-68senators-at-large were Tom Welch and Judy Willmore. Miss Willmore received a total of 847 votes, with Welch winning with a total of 872 ballots. Also running for the office were Bruce Nilson, 623 votes, and Cheryl Lorenc, 452 votes. Final tabulations by the Elections Committee showed that 1469 stu- were elected senators-at-large in : OGDEN, UTAH dents voted last week, 600 more than those who cast ballots last year. Dick Bowman, elections chairman, said one of the main reasons for the upsurge in voting was the addition of two new polling places. In past years, only one booth had been installed in the main foyer of the Union Building. Additional booths were placed in the Technical Education Building and Building Four. "I suspect the voting would have been much lower," Bowman said, "if we had installed only one polling place." He continued, "another factor in the increased number of voters could also have been the strate-gis location of the new piling booths." The number of voters in last Friday's election doubled the number of ballots cast for the primary contest. Approximately 600 votes were tabulated in the primaries as compared to 1469 in the final elections.

|Signpost (Weber, Utah), 1967-04-21, Vol. 26, No. 22
|Weber State College
|Associated Students of Weber College; A generous grant from the Utah State Library and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
|Weber's current student newspaper, the Signpost, first appeared on September 29, 1937. For two years prior to that time, campus news was disseminated via announcements posted on a bulletin board known as the "Signpost". As a result, the masthead of the first issue of the paper itself featured a rudimentary wooden sign with the title spelled out in rustic-looking letters. Over the years the paper has been published continuously, though the look, size and style has changed several times.

The Ron Brown Scholar Program currently has two deadlines for applications (students must be current high school seniors at the time of their application):
November 1st - application will be considered for the Ron Brown Scholar Program AND forwarded to a select and limited number of additional scholarship providers.
January 9th - final postmarked deadline in order to be considered for only the Ron Brown Scholar Program ONLY.
Since the postmark is what matters, there is no advantage in sending your application by overnight delivery service. If January 9th falls on a Saturday or Sunday, your application should be postmarked by the following Monday.
No. We do not have cut-off scores. Competition for the scholarships is intense, however, and successful applicants have demonstrated a serious commitment to academics. This is reflected in their high grade point averages, rank in class, and test scores.
We require 2 essays, each approximately 500 words. In the first one, we ask that you answer a specific question. The second essay can be on any topic. If you haven't written one for a college application, you may submit an essay that you wrote for one of your classes, or write a new essay.
Keep in mind that the essays are an opportunity for you to tell us something about yourself that we can't learn from your transcript or test scores.
No. You may print the application from our web site and mail it to us, but it is not possible to apply on-line. If you do print the application from the web site, be sure to print both pages. There are sections for you, your parent/guardian, and high school guidance counselor to complete.
Due to the large number of applicants, we are unable to accept faxed or emailed applications or any part of the application.
If you have a legitimate reason, beyond your control, for missing the deadline, you may call to request an extension. Approval must be given by the Ron Brown Scholar Program in order for the deadline to be extended.
Yes. You must be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident in order to apply.
Financial need is a factor that we consider in awarding scholarships. If you think that you will be eligible for financial aid at the colleges to which you are applying, you should apply for a Ron Brown Scholarship.
In the first stage of the application process, you should list the income of both parents if it is available to you. This should include the non-custodial parent. If a parent's whereabouts is unknown, you should list that on the application. If you reside with a step-parent, that should be indicated and their income listed.
If you are residing with a legal guardian, you should list their income on the application.
Should you advance to the next stage, information about your non-custodial parent's income will be requested and will be taken into account in determining financial need.
The application asks your parents for their adjusted gross income on last year's federal income tax return, that is, the return that they filed when you were a junior in high school. By their signatures, they also agree to provide proof of income, including copies of income tax returns, if required.
If you advance to the next stage in the application process and become a semi-finalist, verification of income will be required.
The scholarship may be used at any degree-granting four-year college within the United States. Recipients may study any academic discipline of their choice. The scholarship may not be used for vocational or technical training.
We send the check directly to your college to be credited to your account.
You are eligible for a Ron Brown Scholarship even if you receive other scholarships or financial aid.
Semi-Finalists will be contacted in late February. Finalists will be notified in early March and invited to Washington, D.C. (we pay expenses) to be interviewed by the National Selection Committee.
Because of the large number of applicants, we are not able to notify those who have not reached the semi-finalist or finalist stage. We will post the names of the scholarship winners on our website in late April/early May.
The scholarships are funded by the Ron Brown Scholar Fund/CAP Foundation and from generous donations from friends and partners.

The North Carolina Attorney General's Office announced Friday that it would not oppose allowing six same-sex couples to amend a 2012 lawsuit challenging the state's ban on second parent adoptions to include additional claims challenging the state's ban on same-sex marriages.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) filed the 2012 lawsuit in Greensboro on behalf of six same-sex couples and their children, challenging the state's ban on second parent adoption. Second parent adoption is a process by which one partner in an unmarried gay or straight couple adopts the other partner's biological or adoptive child.
Earlier this week the ACLU asked the Attorney General to consent to allow that lawsuit to be amended to include a claim challenging the state's ban on marriage for same-sex couples.
"We are very pleased that the Attorney General's office has agreed to this change," said Chris Brook in a written release, Legal Director of the ACLU of North Carolina Legal Foundation. "North Carolina's ban on marriage for same-sex couples harms families and children in innumerable ways, from the momentous to the mundane. The loving families in this case want and deserve the security that comes from having a legally recognized family unit, and marriage will strengthen and protect their relationships with each other and their children in a way that nothing else can. We hope the court agrees to this change and allows us to present our case."
The move to amend the state's lawsuit came less than two weeks after the U.S. Supreme Court's landmark ruling in another ACLU case which found that the federal Defense of Marriage Act defining marriage as between one man and one woman was unconstitutional.

Praise For Lydia's
Orianna's first birthday at the SFC
Hi Lydia.
I was just writing you an email. It was AWESOME!!!! We had a blast. Everyone had a wonderful time and could not stop talking about the food.
We had about 22 adults and 10 babies. All the babies were happy and none
of them cried and I believe that was due to the wonderful vibe you
have created at The Sunflower Center. All the parents mentioned how amazing it was and how good a time the children had.Also, there was plenty of food and people were coming up to me and going on and on about how delicious it was. I heard specific praise about the raw wraps, curry quinoa, salads and the powerballs. And the cake was a big hit and the perfect size.
Thank you so much for everything. Tarik was a huge help. He set up everything and even helped us put the presents in the car at the end. :) He set up the space with the swings and the hoola hoops and I brought a large box of toys and together it was great fun. It could not have been better!
Thank you again!
Italian Crackers
Wow, just found your Italian Crackers, and they are a God-send. I'm on a special diet, because of a pretty tough illness, and I just was not able to get enough calories, or a snack I could easily carry with me. These help me stay full, and they're okay for my diet, and I'm not allergic to them (hard for me to say about most foods). Going to try more of your products -- if you have any coupons, I'd appreciate knowing where to get them.
Thank you for making these products! Please don't ever stop.
Best wishes,
Monica :)
❤ ❤ ❤
I had one of your burgers at the Marin County fair. As a vegetarian there wasn't too much on offer elsewhere at the fair so I was so delighted to come across your stall. I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious your vegan burger was. It was so fresh and tasty I devoured it and could have eaten another. My young daughters (11 months and 2) enjoyed it too which surprised me. Thank you for providing such delicious fare!
I have just had a look at your website and look forward to buying some products from Rainbow and Wholefoods. I have recently moved from London, UK, to San Francisco and am enjoying the new and different foods here. I am attempting a wheat free diet at the moment to see if it has any effect on a disorder I have so look forward to incorporating some of your products into my diet.
I would love to attend a cooking course if that was something you do?
I look forward to visiting when next in Petaluma.
Kind regards,
Lynaire Roache

Junior National Champion Keegan Swenson�s
Blog � World Championships
After a long day of travel I had made it to Stuttgart,
Germany to begin my trip for Worlds, in Saafelden, Austria. I headed over there
a little early so I could do the XC race in Albstadt to help prepare for worlds
the following weekend, as well as just get used to the 8 hour time change. On
Friday we went to Eurobike for a few hours which was pretty cool, I could not
believe how huge it was, and how big the bicycle industry really is! Crazzy!
Saturday morning Marco and I headed to Albstadt to get a lap on the course
before the race. It was mess. It was ridiculously muddy! I did one lap and then
decided to change tires, they did a
little but the mud was so thick I don�t think it even mattered. I had the whole
course pretty much dialed except one slippery, muddy death shoot. While pre riding
I slapped the hay at the bottom�So I decided I was just going to run/slide/walk
down it during the race. I didn�t feel like breaking myself the week before
worlds. After an early wakeup and plenty of espresso I was ready to race. I got
myself warmed up and then lined up at the start. It started off fast as always,
but I was able to make my way to the front, I stay there till the top of the
climb then lost a few spots on the DH. I was riding the struggle bus, that�s
for sure. I also didn�t feel so hot on the climbs so I decided just to ride the
rest of the race and be careful not to kill myself. I think I ended up around
16th in the end. My poor Flash was pretty beat after all the mud and
power washing�thank you Giac for making it race ready again!!
After a fun day of shredding awesome
trails in Stuttgart, we headed off the Austria the next day. It was a little
bit of a drive, about 4 hours. I was able to get a few laps on the course after
we arrived. I liked it. Really fast with some short steep descents. Which
happened to be quite slippery when wet..
Thursday I raced the team relay with my 3 teammates
Russell, Lea and Todd. I went second. It was HARD! Just one lap as fast as you
could do it. The death shoot was really slippery as well, I decided just to run
down it and be safe. In the end we were 7th, pretty solid.
Friday morning I went out for a little spin on the course and few openers for
XC the next day. The course was drying out which made the slippery section only
a little slippery and I was able to ride it about half the time, the other half
hitting the pads at bottom.
RACEDAY! I jumped on the rollers for a while and got the legs going then headed
over for the start. The gun went off and missed my pedal� twice in a row�I
think I was just nervous and jumped to hard, thus missing my pedal. I don�t
know where I was, about mid pack maybe? So I had a go all out on my start loop
to get into the top 10. Once up there I just tried to ride smart and slowly
made my way up to the front. After some chasing, I caught the French guy in 5thright after the feed zone and attacked him on the road climb. I was able to get
a small gap and hold it off to the finish! Well that�s it, season is pretty
much done! Way stoked to be able to finish it off in a good way. Congrats to
Anton for the win, you are an animal. Now time to move on to U23!!
Oh and the next day I did the Sprint Eliminator, which was a 500m loop all
downtown. It was a fun track, with a bunch of stairs and turns. I gave it all I had for about 2min but it
wasn�t enough. I was ELIMINATED! Next year�.it was a lot of fun though. Can�t
wait to do more of them next season.
you to my parents, coach, Cannondale Factory Racing, USA Cycling and everyone
else that helped me this season! It was a good one. Now lets race some cross!

Cardiologists leading study on student athletes
January 19, 2010
Every year in the United States approximately 8 million student athletes participate in sports at school. Before children are allowed on the field, a family history and a physical exam is required. But experts believe that a more in-depth screening program is needed.
Sudden death episodes primarily occur in apparently healthy children during a time of strenuous physical exertion, and are most often attributed to previously undiagnosed cardiac diseases.
Children's is one of three institutions leading a state-wide cardiac research study to address the need for a pre-sports screening program in Texas.
Drs. William Scott and Ilana Zeltser, pediatric cardiologists in The Heart Center at Children's, are participating in the research study to identify children who may be at-risk for sudden death episodes. Over the course of a year, 15,000 student athletes received an electrocardiogram — a test measuring the electrical activity of the heart. Dr. Scott, professor of Pediatrics at UT Southwestern, and Dr. Zeltser, assistant professor of Pediatrics at UT Southwestern, are examining the electrocardiograms.
"Our goal is to establish new standards for normal electrocardiogram values in the adolescent athlete," Dr. Zeltser said. "We are focusing on the degree to which gender, race and body mass index affect the interpretations. We hope to increase the sensitivity and specificity of the electrocardiogram as a screening tool for sudden death in young athletes."

Safco Products Muv 5 Level Adjustable Printer Stand
Excellent Multi Printer Stand
Michael from Mason, OH– Verified Buyer
I had two printers and a scanner that I needed to organize. This really did the job nicely. Also, have two extra shelves available for spare paper and scanner accessories. I highly recommend this very sturdy and stable printer stand.
Great space efficiency
Gum Doc from Manasquan, NJ– Verified Buyer
This is great for stacking multiple printers or fax machines including heavy, larger laser jets. I removed one shelf as it was not needed (the one with the slot for continuous feed paper).
Sturdy and attractive
Golly G. from Loveland, CO
I bought these shelves several months ago. Assembly was easy and the shelf spacing is quite configurable. I like the shelves because they are sturdy -- I have a very heavy laser printer on one shelf and it is no problem -- and because they are very attractive. Today I'm buying another set of the shelves to put next to the first set. That will greatly enhance the appearance of my office.

Is it safe to take fish oil supplements in pregnancy?
Sarah Schenker
- Supplements made from the body of fish, often called omega-3 supplements, are safe to take in pregnancy.
- Supplements made from the liver of fish, such as cod liver oil, are not safe to take in pregnancy.
Both types of fish oil supplements contain beneficial long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, which help your baby's brain and eyes to develop. In the long-term, they may also help to protect you against heart disease.
However, cod liver oil also contains high levels of the retinol form of vitamin A. You shouldn't take supplements containing the retinol form of vitamin A when you're pregnant, because large amounts of retinol can harm your baby.
There's no official recommendation that pregnant women should take a fish oil supplement. Some research suggests that babies born to women taking omega-3 long-chain fatty acids weigh a little more and are less likely to be born early, but more research needs to be carried out to be sure.
If you eat some oily fish every week, you probably won't need to take a supplement. Government advice is that we should all eat more fish, and up to two portions a week can be oily fish. Oily fish will provide you with plenty of omega-3 fatty acids, as well as other vitamins, minerals, and protein that you wouldn't get from taking just a supplement.
Some research has shown that in countries where pregnant women tend to eat more fish, fewer develop pre-eclampsia, or have a baby who is premature, or a low birth weight.
Fish that are rich in omega-3 fatty acids include mackerel, salmon, trout, kippers, anchovies, and sardines.
Fresh tuna also counts as an oily fish, but tinned tuna doesn't, as the canning process depletes the oils.
Crab and prawns contain reasonable amounts of omega-3 fats. And white fish, such as cod and haddock, contain some omega-3, but in lower amounts. Some foods made with white fish have extra omega-3 added.
Although oily fish is good for you, don't have more than two portions a week while you're pregnant. Oily fish can also contain environmental pollutants, such as dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).
Dioxins and PCBs can build up in your body over a long period of time. There's some evidence that they may interfere with your unborn baby's development.
One or two portions of oily fish a week will benefit you and your developing baby at a level that doesn't cause harm from the pollutants in the fish.
If you don't eat fish, and decide to take a fish oil supplement, make sure that the supplement you take is suitable for pregnant women.
Avoid high-dose supplements and check how much DHA and EPA they contain. These are the two beneficial long-chain omega-3 fats found in oily fish. About 450mg EPA and DHA a day is equal to eating one or two portions of oily fish a week. If you don't want to eat fish oil, but would like to take a supplement containing long-chain omega-3 (EPA and DHA), you can buy supplements derived from algae. Fish get their omega-3 from algae.
If you're at all unsure about which supplement to take, ask the pharmacist for advice.

[Cross-posted from HSAfrica] From: H-Net List on South & Southern Africa [mailto:email@example.com] On Behalf Of Joan Wardrop Sent: 19 October 2012 07:04 To: email@example.com Subject: CFP: Museums and the Idea of Historical Progress *Museums and the Idea of Historical Progress* ICMAH/COMCOL Annual Conference 2012 - 07 to 9 November 2012 Organizers: Archaeology and History ICOM South Africa ICMAH, COMCOL and ICOM South Africa have the pleasure inviting you to participate in their joint international conference. The conference will be at Iziko South African Museum in Cape Town (Republic of South Africa), 7-9 November, 2012. *Details about separate sessions for COMCOL and ICMAH for day 3 will be sent to registered participants. The topic of the conference is to examine various social, political and economic utopian ideologies and experiments and the way they are represented in museums and their collections. *TOPIC* The idea of the modern museum, at the time of its invention in various European countries during the age of high colonialism and the industrial revolution, was based on a number of attributes that sit comfortably with the idea of utopia. The promise of modernism, i.e. the notion that progress and equity is guaranteed by the state and manifest in society, has indeed been an embedded phenomenon underlying much of human history. These seemingly predominant Western paradigms influence many of our museums until today. What all utopias in past and present have in common is the inspiration of large groups of people by the possibility of a future society, free from a difficult present. Varieties of capitalism, socialism, liberalism, nationalism, colonialism, cold war ideological battles, and totalitarianism generated a myriad of social systems and ideologies as expressions of utopias to be achieved. The theories and practice of values, vision and practice everywhere in the world. Political, economic, social and cultural differences between and within North and South, and also between Asia and the Western World, of course exist. They have inspired a variety of ideas about human rights, tolerance, recognition and acceptance of diversity in our societies. By implication, these also inspired models and ideas to make living in peace and harmony possible. Despite all their differences, it can be argued, that this has been a theme of enduring significance in museums. The last two decades it seems the world has been thoroughly turned upside down. Much discussed issues are the fall off grace of industrialism or capitalism, the violence and discrimination of post-colonialism, the broken promises of nationalism or even supra-nationalism, of socialist or communist internationalism, and the ending of the Cold War with the alleged certainty of a free Europe. Familiar utopian ideologies no longer offer the prospect of a solution. The future seems ambiguous and uncertain. At the same time, societies are developing new - more interdisciplinary and global - ways of rethinking utopian ideas of capitalism, colonialism, empire building, modernism, and post-colonialism. It means for some that the world is heading for a new utopian dream of less dependence on former colonial powers, of greater South-South, and East-South political and economic co-operation, of a greater equal treatment of citizens and nations. Or is this another mirage, another dystopia disguised as utopia? The Conference will give participants an opportunity to discuss and deliberate on the above issues. It will serve as a platform for experts, young professionals and participants from different countries to share their knowledge and to forge partnerships.

Dozens of employers met with hundreds of veterans Monday at
a job fair in Fayetteville specifically targeted toward veterans.
Congresswoman Renee Ellmers
(R-NC-02) organized the "Recruit-A-Vet" job fair. According to her staff more
than 300 veterans and active duty soldiers participated in the career fair with
more than 50 businesses from across the Fayetteville area.
"It looks promising,"
commented veteran James Webb after attending the fair.
He has been unemployed for
nearly a year, but a report by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics says there
is good reason to be hopeful. While veterans have had higher than average
unemployment rates for more than a decade, this year the unemployment rate for
post 9/11 veterans improved and is now level with the national average.
Some experts credit
companies making more of an effort to hire veterans. Several at this job fair
say veteran recruiting is a top priority.
Companies like Volt
staffing say they need employees with military connections. So they came from Raleigh
to find veterans at the job fair.
The Fayetteville Police Department
is another example. They've established a close working relationship with Fort Bragg
to create a smooth transition for any soldier interested in law enforcement.
The Veterans Affairs
medical center also hires a lot of veterans. Michael Fuller in the human
resources department say it's part of a focused effort.
"We're looking for
veterans because that's part of our mission is to hire veterans to service our
community," explained Michael Fuller with the VA Medical Center in
Fayetteville. "We want the veterans to know we do appreciate their service
to our nation and by more and more vendors being a part of that it helps them
to feel better about their opportunities to transition back into the
However, the report says
those efforts haven't helped women and older veterans as much. Webb believes it
will take even more companies prioritizing vets to make a real difference in
the Fayetteville area.
"It's very
competitive because in Fayetteville and the surrounding area it's saturated
with prior service veterans."
So while he is seeing some new job opportunities, his optimism is

#18 Air Jordan 10 "Chicago"
The Chicago Air Jordan 10's are the final 10's on our list. Arguably the most recognizeable colorway in the Jordan 10 series, the Chicago colorway was the fifth model in the City Series. Inspired by MJ's native Chicago Bulls team colors, the sneaker was an instant hit. Since it's original release in 1995 the shoe had never recieved a retro release even after originally being apart of the Jordan Countdown Pack. Unfortunately the sneaker was scraped and replaced by the "Shadow" 10's in the package.
Earlier this year Jordan Brand officially announced that the Chicago Air Jordan 10 would finally be retro'd and currently has them as early 2012 release.

VoIP - Voice over Internet Protocol
VoIP is short for Voice over Internet Protocol.
Voice over Internet Protocol is a category of hardware and software that enables people to use the Internet as the transmission medium for telephone calls by sending voice data in packets using IP rather than by traditional circuit transmissions of the PSTN.
One advantage of VoIP is that the telephone calls over the Internet do not incur a surcharge beyond what the user is paying for Internet access, much in the same way that the user doesn't pay for sending individual emails over the Internet.
There are many Internet telephony applications available. Some, like CoolTalk and NetMeeting, come bundled with popular Web browsers. Others are stand-alone products. VoIP also is referred to as Internet telephony, IP telephony, or Voice over the Internet (VOI).
See Wikipedia's Comparison of VoIP software.

-- Robert Preidt
TUESDAY, Sept. 14 (HealthDay News) -- The heart can suffer
serious damage because of a cancer-related muscle wasting disease
called cachexia, a new study has found.
It had been believed that cachexia didn't damage the heart, but
Ohio State University researchers found that the disease reduced
heart function and changed heart muscle structure in mice with
colon cancer.
Cachexia is most common in patients with colon cancer and other
gastrointestinal tumors, as well as some lung cancers, the study
authors noted.
"The fatigue and weakness of cachexia have been attributed to skeletal muscle wasting. But our results support the idea that insufficient heart performance might also be responsible for fatigue symptoms, leading to less exercise and more severe muscle wasting. It's a vicious cycle that contributes to the complications of cancer cachexia," lead author Martha Belury, a professor of human nutrition at Ohio State, said in a university news release.
The study appeared in a recent issue of the
International Journal of Oncology.
The findings could have immediate implications in the treatment
of patients with cachexia, which may be responsible for between
one-fifth and one-third of all cancer deaths.
"I think if we know certain types of cancer are associated with this wasting disease, it might be important to think about heart function earlier rather than once people are starting to lose weight," Belury said. "Clinicians could try to protect the heart while also giving patients chemotherapy for cancer and perhaps added nutrition to maintain weight."

Vermeil Plating:
Pronounced "vermay," vermeil is an electroplating process in which 14K gold or higher is coated over sterling silver. Officially designated by the jewelry industry, items may only be sold as vermeil if they have a minimum thickness of 100 millionths of an inch (2.5 microns) of gold over the silver. Regular gold plating is less than 2.5 microns.
The "vermeil" technique of plating sterling silver with gold originated in France in the 1750s. It differs from "gold filled" or "gold plated" in terms of the thickness or thinness of the microns over sterling silver. "Gold filled" pieces have a much thicker layer, between 15 and 45 microns, which is mechanically bonded to the base metal with heat and pressure. Vermeil is a more expensive version of "gold plated". It does not wear off as quickly as gold plating does. However, over time, vermeil wears off and therefore will require re-plating.
Gold/Platinum Embraced Silver or Bronze:
Our platinum and gold embraced collections feature layers of platinum or gold over sterling silver or bronze for a lustrous, radiant finish everywhere you look and touch.

Monday is a special anniversary for the communications industry. It was 20 years ago that Neil Papworth sent the first ever text message.
Papworth, a British engineer, was 22-years-old when he sent the first ever Short Messaging Service (SMS) from his computer to a friend's cell phone.
The message simply read: "Merry Christmas."
Texting had a slow start, but eventually it surged in popularity, especially when it became cheaper than calling.
It is the single most-widely used application in the world - 81-percent of mobile phone subscribers use it.
Now, free alternatives like instant messaging apps are becoming more and more popular, and text messaging is in decline.
According to Britain's independent communications industries regulator OFCOM, more than 150 billion texts were sent in 2011 alone.
The most frequent texters in the UK are 12 to 15 year olds, who send an average of 193 per week.
Papworth said he didn't realize it would catch on.
