How to Plan a Justin Bieber Party
With 6 G speed, it's the hottest party in town–the Justin Bieber theme party . "Never say Never" as the golden star would say, to gathering together the necessary party stuff to plan a great get together with this newest boy sensation as a central theme. Yes indeed, the princess party is so passé to most 7 -11 year old tweens. If they want to celebrate a birthday, or a "girls night in" sleepover, or getting all A's– it's Bieber fever that will bring in the right party ambience that will make them and "Uyou Smile"–like his song says!
This is the age and stage when girls (and boys too) really treasure and take personal interest in the whole decor as a party theme –
and they take the reins too on the planning and executing. Here's an opportunity to have the lucky Beliebers (or PreBeliebers) share some of their own Justin Bieber party ideas. So whether or not you're in the know about the Bieb, here's a way to join in, get with it, and be just in time for a Bieber Ball!
Shoot for the Stars
Used to be that kids wanted to be astronauts, firefighters, or teachers in my ancient days. Today, they want to be rock stars or traveling reporters who get to interview the stars. For tweens, at least the chance to be next to a star is prime. Eight year old Gabriella has been asking since hearing Bieber's first love song, "how can we invite him to our house?" And the next question was, "What if I send Justin Beaver an invitation to our house?" It's a good question showing she knows her protocol, and now you can make it official with the amazing Justin Bieber invitations that appear to be a backstage pass! For sure, they are not your ordinary birthday party invitations, but a memento that can be saved, treasured, and talked about. Get them online in many places.
Now the thrilling bubble does not have to burst if the real Justin doesn't RSVP, because you can get a life-size Bieber for your house guest paparazzi to shoot. These life sized cardboard cutouts with easels are picture perfect, and your guests will no doubt love to strike their poses by his side.
Fun and Games Justin Bieber Style
Who hasn't seen it a billion times– the super bowl 6G commercial, the blurbs of Justin's appearances on the Daily Show, and all the impersonations? Use it to the max and plan to have guests do their own impersonations. Along with the more traditional Justin Bieber party supplies, throw in a wig or two, and some clothes (that your tween will pick out as the ones most like those he really wears). Hand out some Rock Star inflatable microphones, available online from the new rush to get out a host of Justin Bieber party supplies. Rock stars in the making may wish to prepare a routine with a song done karaoke style or a capella, or simply a costumed pantomime. G most likely will bring their own cameras, or even video cameras these days. Award prizes for the most beautiful, the weirdest, and the funniest. Plan a Grammy award for each performer. This show might rival the Biebs own new 3D hit!
Now getting back to the atmosphere and decorations, –purple is the reining color throughout the plentiful array of Justin Bieber party stuff online from plastic table covers to the usual plates and cups, napkins, banners, door posters, tattoos, loot bags, and balloons. However you may find some great debates about the purple verses blue–and the truth about the favorites may be found in 2 or 3 easily available cheap paperbacks online such as "Justin Bieber: The Fever!" all about his 16th birthday March 2010, with photos, his dating info, and more, or, "Justin Bieber Get the Scoop" with loads of bio facts and photos. These books can also help with more personalized Bieber party game ideas, other than putting on lipstick and planting kisses on the life-sized poster of him! This is Justin Bieber, after all, an artistic and creative icon, so why not continue on creatively. The tweens may enjoy planning a one scene skit called, an Encounter with Justin, alone or in a group. Hopefully, you or someone can video and certainly photograph for great mementos to put in a goody bag. In this celebration you may want more than just a goody bag, but a cool Bieber tote bag for each guest.
Leave it to Bieber
Don't laugh, but there are really neat 300 piece poster sized Justin Bieber puzzles available, and at this age a blast from the past with puzzle pieces can be a hoot. There's a view of him in one puzzle , (maybe in a "fever"), about to take off his shirt, and in another puzzle he's gazing directly into the beholder's eyes. Either one of these (and a few other choices too) are available online. And, they can go into the tote bags for taking home.
For an interim sit down moment, you can organize a game of "guess how many words in Justin Bieber's name." Word generator online can help you print out the entire list of nearly 500.
Adding in a bit of "do-it-yourself" art to round out the party ideas for a take home gem, you may wish to order some nice sized, 42 inch blow up rock star guitars. These can be designed and decorated with permanent markers or stick on gemstones.
How's this for another Bieber-licious party game idea: "What's in the Name?" Most everyone has not just their given name today, but their email names, their avatar names, and the names that they might like to call themselves. Apparently Justin has been reported checking into motels under the name Chandler Bing. What's the vote on this, and what are some other possibilities for him? (Or for your own secret celebrity name!)
Have your Cake and JB Too!
Whether this event is a birthday party or other celebration, you have to have treats and sweets. For a centerpiece cake you can get edible cake icing picturing none other than this newest hot sensation. Online Justin Bieber party supplies have the range of items from soup to nuts. Put it on your own homemade cake. Does the hostess know what is this dreamboat's favorite birthday cake flavor? Maybe something to research!
Microphone cupcakes are always a winner. Just use ice cream cones in the cup variety, top with little cupcakes, frost and coat with black sprinkles.
The truth is, in this day and age of questionable role models for our young girls (and boys) there is nothing wrong with a party featuring this nice "boy next door". He's a clean-cut great kid. He's been documented to have worked hard to develop his talents and loves for music and instruments. His manner is gentle, humble even, in his plethora of appearances with David Letterman, Jon Stewart, Ozzy, or bowling with Selena Gomez.
If Justin were not a rock star and just a Justin Jones in your tween's class, he would probably be on the "A" list of any party you were planning. So, why not invite him into your home by way of some hot online, really affordable, must have Justin Bieber party products!
Max and Ruby Make Easter "Egg- traordinary!"
Three year old Natane was ambitiously, precociously, drawing portraits of Mom, Dad, and the Power Puff Girls. They all had delicious, delightful looking bunny ears sticking straight up from their full moon shaped heads. This wasn't even Easter time! Rabbits, bunnies, and Max & Ruby, or Ruby and Max if you prefer that girls go first as their theme song allows, make any kid feel "hoppy" all year long! Kids know bunny ears are soft, cuddly, great to grab and hang on to, and really easy to draw.
Honey and Funny Bunny Art and Games
Nick Jr. Max and Ruby are the best inspirations at Easter time for your own budding portrait artists. Take a quickie photo of their faces, print it out for kids to cut out and paste on another paper. Have available some downloadable Max and Ruby coloring pages, to color and cut out the famous brother and sister pair to add to their artwork page. Then have your little bunny artists draw the rest of themselves, and a background scene to set off their bunny family picture.
For kids a bit older, set up your Max and Ruby plush dolls or Beanie babies as terrific posing models, and have the kids copy their pose. You can play them the famous episode where Ruby has Max posing while she and Louise paint a portrait. Ruby demonstrates a really easy way to do that famous bunny face.
If your own sweet bunnies don't already have the Max and Ruby dolls to carry around, they are easily available online and are must haves for little honey bunnies who all adore the now famous Nick Jr. Max and Ruby program. Catch up with the Easter episodes or any of the Max and Ruby videos, available online, because they all offer very special inspiration that is bound to bring about some bunny scout cooperation and achievements like Ruby, and just the right amount of passionate pursuits, like Max.
Bunnies, Bags and Begin
The Nick Jr. Easter Max & Ruby episodes do have some wonderful lessons, as well as being great accompaniments for Easter time or anytime activities and parties. The cool thing is you can get special Max and Ruby
supplies easily available online, for setting your atmosphere, if you wish.
For the young age set, just like Max and Ruby themselves, there are so many ways to get busy. Max and Ruby dress up games, toys, coloring and activities, are chock full of ideas to go a little hopping mad! So pack up your toddler's Max and Ruby Lunch Bag. Fill your little tike's Max and Ruby Backpack with those favorite things. You can make your own match and memory game with what goes into the backpack, and if you need reminding about what Max loves, check out the Max's Favorite Things Board Book, available online. For your Ruby who is full of direction and instructions, let her challenge her friends to play the Max and Ruby Match It Memory game, available online. Another fun challenge for a preschooler's bunny fun is the 24 piece Max and Ruby puzzles.
"Egg citing" Hunt
Like Ruby says while painting her eggs in the Easter Nick Jr. Max and Ruby episode, (which you can always get online for your use anytime), "I wish we could do it all year and not just for Easter." Kids might be like Ruby, delighting in painting eggs, proudly carrying a filled basket, finding all those colorful eggs,. Or, they might be like Max, filling a basket with bugs, frogs, and half eaten Easter candies. Both ways are just tops. Baskets are always available on the cheap, or get Max and Ruby tote bags, available online, and 1, 2, or 20 kids will have a ball filling it before even starting an egg hunt game. Make it a challenge with a special golden egg and an "egg-stra" special prize for the one who finds it!
Kids may enjoy taking turns playing the Easter Bunny and hiding eggs or other toys within a certain area. If you have a big back yard, how about getting a bunch of hay and putting a new spin on finding the needle in the haystack, by burying Max & Ruby windup toys and eggs within.
Just like Ruby's exhilaration in decorating her eggs, kids can do their plastic ones with glue on macaroni, spangles, beads, ribbons and anything else around to make them beautiful. Or, draw and glue on parts for silly and zany faces like Humpty Dumpty.
Special Eggs
Here's an activity to fit right in with Max & Ruby games just for Easter time. Make large white paper eggs, and cut in half in a zig zag crack pattern. Or, you can trace and have the kids cut it themselves. Punch paper fasteners to one side so that the egg can open and close. Have kids draw and color an animal to "hatch" from their egg. Cut it out and glue it to the back of the bottom shell. Give each child a chance to tell a story about their creature in their egg. Prizes for these imagination stories can be little Max and Ruby toys such as wind ups, or little dolls that look like Ruby's Curly Shirley.
Another imagination puzzler just in time for Easter fun with Ruby and Max games is to ask the famous question accompanied with a board illustration: What comes first, the chicken or the egg? Five year old Sean wanted to earn merit badges like Ruby's Bunny Scout badges, so here's an opportunity to give out special badges for "Egg-cellent Thinking."
There are plenty of adorable Max and Ruby books with the famous Easter stories in them to have on hand, or you might also like Rechenka's Eggs by Patricia Polacco with gorgeous Ukranian style painted eggs to "ooh and ahh" over.
What's Fair in a Game?
Easter time is the serious time about chocolate and bunnies. Max will tell you the most simple and true words about chocolate is "I love you". If you don't remember this, check out the Easter episode with the chocolate chicken. Remember that Max and Ruby game rules are very different! On getting the chocolate chicken with Ruby's method, the reward is at the end but you enjoy the hunt and the discovery. On the other hand, Max's method is simply seizing the moment and the object of chocolate desire and partaking of its tasty wonders immediately. Truly, when any child tells you "I love you" that does deserve a tasty reward!
Wormy and Fluffy Cakes
Reward kids with some treats besides peeps and eggs and jelly beans. You can do Max and Ruby's favorite cakes like the earthworm cake, the angel food surprise cake with raspberry fluff icing, or the red hot marshmallow cakes. The recipes and pictures to guide are all online. But your kids will show you their favorite cakes just from the wide variety of Max and Ruby coloring pictures, also easily downloadable online. These cakes in Max and Ruby style are just what the novice needs for no worries about lumps and drips and cakes that lean. Just have enough gummy worms to decorate for Max lovers, and pink marshmallow fluff for the Ruby lovers. Online recipes have some simple ideas for making a worm cake. Just crumble chocolate pie crust with chocolate pudding and add your gummy worms. Serve it in a flowerpot with some overhanging worms for the effects that Max lovers will thrill at.
The Hat Trick Easter Bonnet
Three year old Sammy spots a cloth bucket and promptly dons it on his head. Everything is a hat, or can be one. A hat can be simple, like something Max would wear, or elegantly decorated like Ruby's hats. Some of Nick Jr.'s Max and Ruby coloring pages show all kinds of hats. However, a little Max may not want to win a hat competition for the Bunny Scouts, and is more interested in helping his own pet frog do tricks, just like the Max and Ruby episode. And speaking of animal tricks, try this. Put a bunch of little plastic animals in a paper bag, have a child reach in and pull one out. He or she then has to do a trick which that bug or animal might do. Give prizes for each budding pantomime.
Following this raucous bit of activity, settle down to color, cut and paste the prettiest or the funniest hat of all. Have some precut mats to frame their coloring pages of awesome hat designs.
Easter and Everyday Parades
Dressing up is always traditional for an Easter parade, and anytime is good for tots and preschoolers too. Have a bag of costumes for kids to do their own Easter time Max and Ruby dress up parade. Make a dress up game by having partners dress each other as Max or Ruby. And most importantly, don't forget about Max and Ruby's toys. Yes, toys are a necessary part of the parade. Remember that Max and Ruby episode where Ruby colored eggs, while Max instead of putting them in a basket, gave an egg to each of his toys? Kids even school aged, love to insure that every doll, every truck, every toy has their equal portion of whatever it is. Little Jessica, with her 25 Barbie dolls, made sure each Barbie had her own Pet Shop for her Easter Pet Parade Party! Making your costume and toy parade all set to music is an activity bound to please. The toys, Max and Ruby style, can be around as an obstacle course, but still part of the parade route.
Too Many Toys?
Boys like Max always need enough toys, because sharing can sometimes be a problem when a friend comes along to proclaim some as "mine". And just how many toys does a toddler need in bed? Like Max who discovered that sometimes a red rubber elephant isn't enough, there's always room for more Max and Ruby toys. Pile a few toys under a blanket for a fun guessing game of how many are there.
Max's frogs which you can get a lot of, can be hidden around for a fun search and rescue game. Find them and bring them to a little pail of pond water with some paper lily pads.
Max and Ruby Dress Up
From ages 3-6, the most favorite online activity, no matter how many times it's done, is the Max and Ruby dress up game. Kids love to see bare-naked Max and help find his clothes, unfortunately dropped on the floor, their style! But you don't have to have the computer available for your Easter party fun, because Nick Jr. Max and Ruby dress up dolls for printing out are all available. Kids never tire of cutting and pasting their choices. And, even better, have them design their own wild outfit, and tell a little story about where Max or Ruby is going with that outfit. If you like to video, do a video recording of each child to show off their "fashionista" and adventurous selves.
Besides for coloring pages, there are many craft templates available online, with almost too many cute ones to choose from. Preschoolers would love to do the Bunny Egg Cartons for holding jelly beans, or Max's famous jelly balls. It is easy to put together by gluing onto a cutout bunny head template some pompons and wiggly eyes, and cotton balls of course for ears.
A bit older and able kids would love do the awesome rabbit toilet paper rolls. They are just adorable with easy instructions with the online templates.
Templates for making paper rabbit ears to attach to a headband for all your bouncing bunnies is a fun way to start a party. And they will laugh to see one another with the ears doing a freeze dance, or bunny musical chairs.
An Easter Birthday or Party Party
Besides for being a honey bunny, funny bunny, snuggle bunny, or cuddle bunny, kids do have birthdays at Easter, and what a great time to have a Max and Ruby birthday party! All your necessary Max & Ruby party supplies and more are easily available online. Of course you can get their funny bunny images on everything, from edible cake decorations, or a rabbit specialty cake pan, balloons, invitations, party favors, and an awesome Max & Ruby piñata that many a parent has raved about.
There are some favorite Max and Ruby books online that teach preschoolers their important colors. Check them out. And if you have a porch and lots of newspapers, and just a couple of bunny lovers, do a color mixing lesson just like Ruby did when painting her model, Max. Put out blue, yellow, red and see how you make green and brown. If you're adventurous, and outdoors, you might have some fun like Max did and "paint," as Max quipped, with some ketchup, mustard and grape jelly!
Think Inside the Box…The Toy Box …to Throw a Terrific Toy Story 3 Birthday Party
If you are planning a birthday centering on the characters from Toy Story 3, get ready for a great time. The antics of Woody and Buzz along with all the other toys offer endless options for games, activities and an afternoon of fun. Let's get started creating a special day for your birthday boy or girl.
1. Arrival Activity
A sure fire way to start a great party is to have something to do when your guests arrive. Since no one arrives at the same time, you will have some early arrivals and some late comers. Offering them a theme based activity will keep everyone interested and occupied while they wait for the real party to start. You could use a Toy Story 3 puzzle as your arrival activity. Set it up on the kitchen table and let the kids join in the assembly as they arrive. Or, give them a craft to put together. Provide them with a goody bag, markers and Toy Story stickers and let them design their own personalized goody bags. Whichever activity you choose, giving your guests something to do until things get going will get your Toy Story 3 party off on the right foot.
2. Great Games
Next on the list is to design some great games. Start with a traditional party game like pin the tail on the donkey, give it a little Toy Story 3 twist and now you have pin the nose on Mr. Potato Head. Grab a couple stick horses; give them names like Bullseye and Buttercup, and you have Woody's Wild Horse Race. With the Toy Story 3 Bingo Game, you have a readymade, super-fun game for your guests to play.
3. Dazzling Decorations
Start with a big birthday banner that stretches over the wall in your party room. Add Toy Story balloons to multi-color streamers and balloons to create a truly festive atmosphere. Cover the tables with custom tablecloths featuring the kid's favorite characters and don't forget to set-up a table for the presents. Finish off the table setting with Toy Story party supplies like character cups, plates, napkins and a custom Toy Story birthday cake in the image of your child's favorite character. For an extra special touch, create a picture spot with a bale of hay and a table cloth hung over a door. Over the course of the party, take a picture of the birthday boy or girl with each guest to make extra special thank you cards after the party.
There is a wide variety of favor options to go along with the Toy Story party theme. If your birthday party is primarily for boys, a bag of army men, a slinky and a go fish game featuring Woody are sure to be hits. If your party is for girls, a package of jacks, some silicone bracelets and a couple sheets of stickers are great fillers for a goody bag. Whether you stick with character based favors like kaleidoscopes or pencil cases or go with some other theme based options, keeping the favors aligned with the theme provides the perfect ending to your Toy Story 3 party.
By thinking a little more inside the Toy Box, you can throw an unforgettable Toy Story 3 birthday party for your child.

Family Game Night—Still a Winner!
Asking your kids a question is often a losing proposition—it's not a win-win solution when you get the blank black hole type of communication like "nothing", I don't remember". No matter how cool you try to attempt to connect with your kids and the rest of the family it may not be working as well as you'd like…but, there's an antidote. Games, the word today usually means gadgets, gizmos…or gambling—but you don't have to be a grandpa or a grandma to rediscover the lure and love for family game night—or start making every other Friday night board game night. Even if it's between the dog walking and the online social networking! But if you think classic board games are classic bore games, or that board games for kids are out of touch, there's more to that story, as they say.
Games. It is the word on the tip of any kid's tongue. Even in this day of texts and tweets, when two "BFF's" meet, the first words most likely exchanged are "Wanna play a game?" And games are win win all the way around. We all know what we taught the kids early on– the best way to do anything, make any chore a breeze is to make a game out of it. The famous board games of the past
The Game's The Thing
Games are the antidote to running, multitasking, and the hit and miss family occasions—dinner table where having to eat the broccoli puts a damper on pleasantness, and breakfast nooks with homemade pancakes often lose out to walking the dog and flying to the meeting, in-betweeners often off to the spa, each person's special TV program, and the individual chats online.
Games are goodness, great, groovy, and more and more families are making game night a happening thing. Setting out for just ½ hour together, or a fabulous hour—the families are actually doing something face to face, hearing what the comments are, seeing the facial expressions. True, we're not all game lovers, but letting yourself get inspired by the game groove brings out the best in kids and parents alike. This is a chance for face to face that's not just pick up your clothes, why didn't you finish your homework, but to let your guard down and not be too serious. Kids get the chance to learn about gracious winning, good losing, learning from mistakes what works and doesn't work, sharing, feeling success, and just laughing. Maybe you've never been a game lover, but games can set a tone for good time spirits. Better than a baseball game or even a family movie.
The Games Afoot
Just set out the game—with the tots and kids, you've got a tradition in the making. The selections of board games for kids or specifically for those first timers, preschool board games have expanded to many with names hard to remember or pronounce. Now don't "oh, chute"…because for the youngest and their ups and downs, Chutes and Ladders and Candy Land are still tops on their list of favorite games. These classic board games are even updated with versions featuring the beloved timeless Dora the explorer. When it comes to Chutes and Ladders with Dora, you all can enjoy a good natured spill down the chute…"oh chute", and a proud access up the ladder. And both just happen enough times in a game so that game mirrors life, as they say. Chutes and Ladders is probably the most famous board game to make chores and deeds a good time. And as for Candy Land with Dora the Explorer, unless you are a dentist, it's hard to resist the lure of those treats. Okay, everyone gets one as a reward for a good game together. These preschool board games find their way into all of our impish and kidlike delights–and are pulled out for play by even 8 year olds.
It's a tireless hilarity, but passing around the Hot Potato, or the "healthier" alternative sold at Kimmieshop – the Hot Tomato, that sings and plays until the last one gets caught is a quickie hilarity.
Yes, games don't have to be serious and complicated like brain operation, and even Operation is a winner for all ages. Kids can be better at the fine tuning motion to take out the offending and sick body part without buzzing, going for the "toxic gas" especially always raises a stink of hilarity in our house! Do check out the truly outrageous Toy Story 3 Operation to save Buzz Lightyear's innards from the galactic maladies.
Toy Story 3 is loved by both girls and boys and you can pick up an easy Toy Story Flip and Match or have a game handy right in your bag with the Toy Story 3 Four card games in the tin box. These handy card games are not reaching too far for quick an easy board game ideas–and as you're passing and handing the cards (the boards) back and forth, there's a bit of personal expression that gets passed along–instead of the "OMG's" in the texting!
Fun for All Ages
One of the most adorable and silly fun board game for preschoolers and even kindergarteners is Alphabet Circus– this one knows some creative ways with beloved bean bags. Toss and hop onto learning alphabets and words. And doing it on one leg, when Mom and Dad has to do it, is truly a memorable family gem.
Storytelling is not usually considered a game, but storytelling has mesmerized audiences since cave man and woman. Amazing without even props, and when you think about it, who doesn't like to tell a whopper. Have a blast in making up stories with the Toy Story 3 Storytime Board Game—whether you are 4 or 40 or even 80, all can partake in this one. 7 year old Lailee still laughs to remember what 87 year old grandma Silva said, and boy did the usually quiet "Pa" go on and on!
"Guess Who" with hands behind the head never goes out of style, and neither does the game, now in Disney's specialty, Disney's Guess Who? This game is great for even a twosome sharing with mom or dad and child. If you find memory games a favorite winner, you can add some language learning to it for younger kids, with the Sesame Street Memory Match in Spanish and English.
The Domino Effect
Criss crossing paths is like a natural doodle everyone does it…building up or down, keeping your eyes peeled on the matching pieces, or it's a trip to the boneyard! That's dominoes for you. Dominoes come in every favorite character…no joke, chose the favorites, or introduce new ones with Elmo, Spiderman, Toy Story, Tinkerbelle, Princes, Sesame Street, Cars, Mickey Mouse, and the precocious molded Alien Cylinder cases of dominoes–!
Unlocking Treasure With Board Games
Cranium board games, the brain pictured on the box, begins at the beginning stage for 2 ½ year old preschoolers in a version just for the tots in Cranium Cariboo. Every child loves, loves, loves to use the key to unlock the doors to get to the treasure. That is magic every time and we can be there and enjoy and participate in all that magic that passes as quickly as the door opens and closes.
As the kids get older, Cranium Kids Games grows and has always been and still is a hit with family groups, the relatives coming or just family party. Cranium Caddo is best for kids 7 and up—and gives kids and parents alike the opportunity to show their stuff!
As kids get into school age, they love to strategize, and tic tac toe, or checkers that can be pulled out while waiting in a restaurant or office or anytime are great.
You Can Zap the Video Games
School age kids, glued to the screens of one sort or another, can be hard to ply away, but here's the truth. Believe it or not a recent global study showed that 73% kids would prefer to choose to play with parents rather than TV. The thrill today seems to be bringing out the sillies And in many games, there's the opportunity to be silly, goofy, and fun. Set it out, take a floor seat, try it out.. School aged kids get a kick out of the updated Sorry Revenge game. Silly and fun if you let your silly bone be tickled a little.
Monopoly is a family game night classic, and Monopoly board games have 2 wonderful modernized versions. Monopoly City is updated with tall buildings, and for the "know it all" kids of 9 and up there's Monopoly Here and Now World Edition that spreads out in a global way that older kids can get into. Monopoly in 2009, was still the best selling game in the world. What is the lure to buy a Monopoly board game? Money and building those little buildings have a real draw, whether or not the kids can understand the monetary considerations, there is still learning and strategizing, involved in every purchase. Taking an ownership, holding and planting down a building, a property, managing a bank, dealing with money–these are opportunities that lets kids feel in charge, like a boss, and they learn from it too. And speaking of strategy, Battleship, a game that has lasted through the years with love, is not just for boys. This one really uses spatial reasoning and encourages kids to visualize and imagine patterns. Risk is another game for the challenge of conquering the world. This one is for the long stretch of miserable weather indoors. With the need for strategy and brain power, this game is intense as it gets on a paper board.
Word games are the perfect board games for the combined ages—from 8 to 80. Scategories is simple without a lot of rules, Scrabble Apple a faster paced word game, or the coolest quickest 3 minute word game that uses 3 or 4 letters so kids have a fair chance is Boggle.
Board Games and Blackouts
Now here's another way you can you pull your kids away from the allure of the video game or computer console, and get them to see the magic of board games. One "sneaky" father had this suggestion. Hit the switch on the fuse box, and pretend there is a black-out. With all the digital devices dead, there's no choice but to get out the flashlights and the board games! And once you do, you'll see them hooked even when the "power returns".
Get Your Head in the Game
Get Your Head in the Game is one of the songs so popular from High School Musical. Sure, it refers to basketball, but whether you're teens like them, two, or 82, getting into the game is best enjoyed face to face, passing the ball or passing the pieces of the game board. It's an interaction that means everybody wins.

Vikings Can't Overcome Cougars' Long-Range Shooting In Loss
SIOUX FALLS, SD — Augustana couldn't find its shot, while Sioux Falls couldn't miss on Friday night, winning 84-72 over the Vikings in Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference play. Augustana fell to 10-7 (6-7 NSIC) on the year with the loss. The Cougars' victory improved their record to 10-7 (6-7 NSIC).
The Vikings couldn't match the shooting performance of Sioux Falls, whose 14 made 3-pointers were one off its season high, and the most that an opponent has made against Augustana this year helped propel USF to its first win in series since Nov. 15, 2011. For the game, the Cougars shot 45.3 percent (29 of 64).
The Vikings, on the other hand, have struggled to connect with their shots during this three-game losing streak, their longest of the year. Augustana went 26 of 72 (36.1 percent). The Vikings are now 1-6 when shooting under 40 percent this season.
Emily Schulte and Shaunteva Ashley led the way for Augustana with 19 points each. Schulte also tied her career high with seven steals, while Ashley dished out a season-high seven assists in the loss. Rhianna Gullickson contributed with 14 points and six rebounds.
Sam Knecht powered USF from the inside with 10 points and a career-high 17 rebounds. Laura Johnson and Taylor Varsho each poured in 18 points on a combined 10-of-24 shooting for the Cougars.
Things got underway with Sioux Falls attacking the paint and getting two quick scores from Knecht on the inside. The baskets were part of a 13-4 run to start the game for the Cougars. Varsho highlighted the run after that, drilling three 3-pointers from the outside within the first four minutes.
Sioux Falls pushed its lead to seven coming out the first media timeout on a Johnson layup, which triggered a quick 6-0 run by USF within a minute of play after the timeout.
An Alex Kneeland layup that drew a foul, put the Vikings down 24-12 at the 9:39 mark in the first half going into the second media timeout. Kneeland would convert the free throw opportunity coming out the break.
The Cougars would connect on two threes – their fourth and fifth of the game already – after that as part of a 12-5 run that put them up 36-18 with 6:53 remaining in the half.
Augustana would again struggle to find its shot in the first half, going just 8 of 23 (34.8 percent) to start the contest. Meanwhile, Sioux Falls came out smoking, connecting on 14 of its first 27 shots (51.9 percent).
A banked-in 3-pointer by Alex Kneeland sparked a 10-0 run for the Vikings that cut the Cougars' lead to 10 at 41-33 with 3:35 remaining until halftime. Kneeland scored five of her eight first-half points during the run.
Augustana would go into the half trailing 47-36 to USF.
The Vikings had issues containing the Cougars – especially Knecht – on the boards in the first half, getting outrebounded 25 to 19. Knecht grabbed 13 of her 17 rebounds in the first half.
Augustana found their way back to a respectable 40.6 percent shooting in the half (13 of 32), while getting Sioux Falls down to 43.2 percent (16 of 38).
The second half got underway with the Vikings able to force three quick turnovers, resulting in them getting the running game going. Augustana used a 16-8 run in the first five minutes of the half get back in the game at down three at 55-52 at the 14:47 mark.
The Vikings started off the second half hot, going 7 for 11 (63.6 percent) before heading into the first media timeout in the second half.
The Cougars responded with a 13-4 run coming out of the media timeout, highlighted by two more threes by USF, pushing their lead to 10 at 70-57 with 10:22 left.
Augustana worked its way back into the game midway through the second half, using a 9-0 run to cut the Cougars' lead to 4 at 70-66 with 6:02 remaining. Unfortunately, it would be the closest that the Vikings would get the rest of the game.
Sioux Falls closed the game out on a 12-4 run, largely due to the Vikings having to foul to extend the game. The Cougars coverted their free throws, winning 84-70.
Augustana again struggled from beyond the arc, going 7 of 32 (21.9 percent). The Vikings are now 1-3 this season when they fire up more than 30 threes in a game.
The Vikings look to snap their three-game losing streak against Southwest Minnesota State (3-14, 1-12 NSIC).

The goal of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence Freedom of Information Act/Privacy Act Office is to keep the public better informed about the Agency's efforts to ensure U.S. security through the release of as much information as possible, consistent with the need to protect classified or sensitive information under the exemption provisions of these laws.
Freedom of Information Act
The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. sec. 552 (as amended by the OPEN Government Act of 2007, Pub. L. No. 110-175, 121 Stat. 2524) generally provides that any person (with the exception of another Federal agency, a fugitive from the law, or a representative of a foreign government) has the right, enforceable in court, to request access to any existing record of the Executive Branch of the U.S. Government unless the information in those records is protected from disclosure by one or more of the nine exemptions that qualify an agency's need to withhold records from the public. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) acts in accordance to all Federal laws and adheres to the policy and disclosure regulations set forth in 32 CFR Chapter XVII Part 1700 to implement the FOIA uniformly and consistently and to provide maximum allowable disclosure of agency records upon request.
Records that, generally, may be protected from disclosure are: (1) properly classified material; (2) limited kinds of purely internal agency personnel rules and practices; (3) matters exempt from disclosure by other statutes; (4) trade secrets or commercial or financial information obtained from a person and privileged or confidential; (5) inter- or intra- agency communications that represent the deliberative, pre-decisional process, attorney work product, or attorney-client privileged records; (6) personnel, medical, and similar files containing information that would be a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy; (7) law enforcement records to the extent that one of six specific harms could result from disclosure; (8) matters relating to the regulation or supervision of financial institutions; and (9) geological and geophysical information on oil wells.
The FOIA provides for access to "reasonably described" records. This means a requester must describe the actual document(s) sought to provide sufficient details to permit a search with reasonable effort utilizing existing indices or search tools. The FOIA does not require an agency to create a record, collect information, conduct research, or analyze data.
Privacy Act
The Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. Sec. 552a) regulates the collection, maintenance, use, and dissemination of personal information by federal executive branch agencies to balance the government's need to maintain information about individuals with the rights of individuals to be protected against unwarranted invasions of their privacy.
The Act focuses on four basic policy objectives:
(1) To restrict disclosure of personally identifiable records maintained by agencies;
(2) To grant individuals increased rights of access to agency records maintained on themselves;
(3) To grant individuals the right to seek amendment of agency records maintained on themselves upon a showing that the records are not accurate, relevant, timely, or complete; and
(4) To establish a code of "fair information practices" which requires agencies to comply with statutory norms for collection, maintenance, and dissemination of records.
Similar to the FOIA, the Privacy Act provides individuals with the right to seek access to agency records. However, under the Privacy Act, an individual (defined as a U.S. citizen or permanent resident alien) may only seek access to his/her own record, or to any information pertaining to him/her, if such information is maintained by an agency within a Privacy Act system of records and is not exempt from release under the provisions of the law. In addition, any requests to amend an agency record are limited to correcting factual errors and not matters of official judgement, such as performance ratings, or subjective judgements that reflect an individual's observation, evaluation or opinion.
Requests for information under the FOIA or PA
To obtain records from the ODNI, a FOIA or PA request may be submitted in writing to:

Vt Yankee: State will try to push decommissioningBy PETER HIRSCHFELD
Vermont Press Bureau | August 28,2013
MONTPELIER After battling for years to shutter the Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant, the Legislature finally got what it wanted Tuesday, albeit not as a result of the laws it enacted to force the issue.
But while Entergy has chosen of its own accord to cease operations at its Vernon plant by the end of 2014, legislators say theyll continue to play a role in its oversight. And though the scope of the states legal authority isnt clear yet, House Speaker Shap Smith said hell pursue whatever options are at his disposal to expedite a decommissioning process that could soon become the center of its own legislative controversy.
We will continue to make sure that we play the role that we need to to force the decommissioning fund to be fully funded, because its vital to the economic vitality of Windham County, and its vital to the long-term future of Windham County, Smith said.
The announcement that Entergy would be closing the plant has spawned a whole new set of questions for lawmakers, including when Vermont Yankee will be decommissioned, whether Entergy has sufficient money to pay for the process, and the degree to which the site will be restored to its pre-plant condition.
Comments out of both camps Tuesday suggest that Entergy and Vermont politicians may already be on a collision course when it comes to those issues. But in the early going at least, state officials have opted for diplomacy over saber rattling.
Two laws, since overturned, sought to place control over operation of the plant in the hands of the Vermont Legislature. A harsh critic of Entergy who rode his opposition to the plants continued operation to victory in the gubernatorial election in 2010, Shumlin struck a more conciliatory tone Tuesday.
At a late-morning news conference in Montpelier, Shumlin said his concern lies first with the 600 workers, about 40 percent of whom live in Vermont, whose jobs will be eliminated as a result of the closure.
Shumlin said he wants to see the plant site restored to greenfield conditions, similar to what existed before the plants construction in 1962. But asked when he wanted to see the decommissioning completed, Shumlin wouldnt offer a time frame.
What I really want to do is use this opportunity to build a better relationship with Entergy, Shumlin said. And I offered to the CEO that face-to-face meetings are better than telephone conversations. He agreed with me.
Based on indications Entergy offered up Tuesday in a supplement to the news release announcing the closure, the company and the state of Vermont may be at odds on the decommissioning time frame.
Under the section titled How long will the entire decommissioning process take? Entergy answers that the complete decommissioning process is likely to take decades.
Entergy, according to its release, intends to leave the plant idle indefinitely a process known as Safstor pending the actual dismantling of the facility. Entergy says there are a number of advantages to Safstor, including lower potential radiation exposure for workers doing the decommissioning work and the need for fewer shipments of radioactive material to the low-level waste site.
Lawmakers and Shumlin, however, say the economic future of southern Vermont hinges on the timely decommissioning of the plant. The sooner Vermont Yankee is restored to pre-nuclear conditions, Shumlin and Smith said, the sooner Vermont can repurpose the site into a regional economic hub.
My concern is jobs, Shumlin said. And the sooner we can return that to a greenfield, so we can use the extraordinary resources there the transmission to help power our green energy future the better off for Vermont in terms of jobs.
The Safstor process at defunct nuclear power plants can last decades. Sandra Levine, senior attorney at the Conservation Law Foundation of Vermont, said that in a best-case scenario, the Yankee site could be restored to greenfield status in 10 years.
Smith said he isnt sure right now what aspects of decommissioning, if any, Vermont lawmakers wield jurisdiction over. He said, however, that the House will take whatever measure we are legally authorized to do to push the issue.
And we will work with others to ensure the (decommissioning) fund is full, and work as quickly as possible to decommission the plant, Smith said.
Unlike the bitter party divide over the issue of closing Vermont Yankee, sentiment over decommissioning doesnt seem to be so partisan.
Senate Minority Leader Joe Benning said the Legislature should use whatever powers it can to expedite the process.
I think the preference of all Vermonters would be that we return that site to what it was before Vermont Yankee was around, Benning said.
While lawmakers wont be able to meddle in issues of radiological safety, Benning said he hoped there will be alternate avenues for intervention, should the state and Entergy differ over the decommissioning timetable.
I hope the state does have a role in trying to turn it to what it once was, he said.
Lawmakers will also wrestle with the issue of money, and whether they can compel Entergy to fully underwrite a decommissioning fund that, at last count, had only $580 million of the potential $1 billion bill for the process.
Michael Dworkin, a former chairman of the Vermont Public Service Board, said hes as concerned about the degree to which Entergy will remediate the site as he is about when the company will get around to doing it.
Dworkin said Entergy in its release said it plans to comply with federal decommissioning standards stipulated by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. But he said those arent as rigorous as the standards lawmakers likely will want. Dworkin said he wasnt sure what legal options lawmakers would have.
The Legislature will have to tread carefully, as evidenced by the invalidation earlier this year of two laws that sought to place control over the plants fate in the hands of state officials. A court found that Vermont had wrongly asserted jurisdiction in arenas over which the federal government had sole authority.
In the ruling earlier this month by the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York City upholding that decision, judges said lawmakers concern over decommissioning issues are of little weight, given the NRCs purview over that process.
Benning said the Legislature will also have to grapple with fiscal issues stemming from the closure, including the loss of state property, corporate and generation taxes paid by Entergy, as well as the income taxes its employees paid.
Smith said the first order of business, legislatively, will be the fate of the plant workers and the Windham County economy. Smith said hell talk with the leaders of the House committees on energy and economic development to determine whether it would be appropriate for us to have hearings this fall down in Windham County, to see if there is additional support we can provide.

My friends used to call William "Ironman" because the first time we kissed he got a nosebleed and the taste of his blood haunted me for a long time after it. We'd only been twelve years old and apparently the anxiety spiked his blood pressure to the point of combustion... I remember that when we were forced to take sex ed a few years later we were divided into separate classes for boys and girls, in case a diagram of an ovary was too risqué and we became animalistic and started clawing at each other in our seats, but nonetheless when our teacher Ms Jacobs had explained to us what an erection was in my mind all I could picture was the blood rushing to his nose and then the slash of cranberry across my blouse.
With the idea planted in his mind it didn't take long for William's hands to start wandering, but the image persisted. Every time I thought about just letting it happen I wondered what would happen if he got too excite

Today's Front Pages Analysis
President Bush clears the air; Barry Bonds's legal affair
With Thanksgiving and the start of the holiday season less than a week away, one thing is on many people's minds: traveling. Planes, trains and automobiles, oh my! But which is the best way to travel?
President Bush made flying seem like a viable option again yesterday, revealing a plan to open up some military airspace along the East Coast to ease congestion. The Aurora (Colo.) Sentinel called this space "Rare Air," but The Kansas City Star's Scrooge-esque headline "Long lines, flight delays likely" seemed pessimistic about the plan's effect. The Orlando (Fla.) Sentinel gave us "The Plane Truth" in a front-page article about the overcrowded skies.
Driving is always an option, but are rising gas prices a deterrent? No, said the News Sentinel in Knoxville, Tenn., with the headline, "Have fuel, will travel (price no object)." However you decide to go, The Indianapolis Star warned, "Check Your Plans, Cross Your Fingers" in its Thanksgiving travel guide, and Cleveland's Plain Dealer suggested travelers "Be sure to pack some patience for your journey," in their "Holiday travel turbulence" story.
The big national story today was the story of baseball star Barry Bonds's indictment on charges of perjury and obstruction of justice. The Daily News of Los Angeles quipped, "Homer king strikes out." Hackensack, N.J.'s The Record said, "Steroids can't help him now."
The hometown papers of Bonds's former team, the San Francisco Giants, said "Busted!" (San Francisco Examiner) and the San Francisco Chronicle tried to explain "The Case Against Bonds" with answers to questions like "What's Next?" and "What Is Perjury?" on the front page.
And finally, our vote for most creative Bonds front page goes to the New York Post, which spelled out "Liar" in asterisks, a notation that might end up going next to Bonds's record.

A new bill to stop underage drinking is gaining support in our state. The "Brown Jug" bill makes the penalty even more expensive, but not everyone agrees with it.
Wisconsin bar owners say they face the challenge of underage drinkers every day. If a bar serves someone under 21, it can cost them cash or their license.
"The fine is somewhat of a deterrent, but the license points that you lose is a much bigger deterrent," said Malarkey's bar owner Tyler Vogt.
Vogt says his bar has been cited once for an underage drinker, but he says that was enough.
"We've gotten one ticket about three years ago for an underage individual, since then we've hired a full-time door person," said Vogt.
Supporters of the new proposal -- called the "Brown Jug Bill" -- say it will cut down on the problem. The new bill would mean underage drinkers or their parents could be taken to court by bar owners and face an additional $1,000 fine. Opponents say the bill goes too far.
"I don't think that that should be an additional responsibility for kids and their families, meanwhile taking the responsibility off of the people who serve alcohol to minors," said Andrea Kaminski, Executive Director of the League of Women Voters.
Those opponents say making use of current laws and working together to prevent underage drinking is the best solution.
"I think the responsibility for dealing with this problem in Wisconsin, has to be a shared one," said Kaminski.
Some bar owners, like Vogt, say the new bill could certainly help curb the problem.
"Any extra step that helps deter underage people from trying to use fake IDs to enter my business is definitely an advantage for us," said Vogt.
No vote has been taken on the bill yet. If it does pass the Assembly and Senate, it would still need Governor Scott Walker's approval.
