Big Momma's House 2
On his latest assignment, FBI agent Malcolm Turner (Lawrence) goes undercover as Big Momma, and works as a nanny for an unhappy woman (Procter) who is under investigation for murder.
When his old partner is killed, FBI agent Martin Lawrence gets back into fat old lady drag and goes undercover as a nanny in the house of a workaholic software designer (Emily Procter) mixed up in an evil plot. So the premise of the original BMH is spliced with Mrs Doubtfire as Lawrence sorts out the lives of the fouled-up kids and brings down the villains.
The first film was a huge hit, but you'd be hard-pressed to find many who were agitating for more. This sequel is formula pap, which manages the heroic achievement of being officially a comedy but raising not a single laugh. There are homilies about being good parents, chases and dance scenes that overwork the fat-old-lady-got-moves routine, and more of Martin Lawrence than even his actual mama could stand.
Not as bad as Son of the Mask or Master of Disguise, but bottom-rung dreck all the same. Martin, please stop making films.

Terra Outdoor Area Rug 2 2
Terra Outdoor Area Rug Bought the "gold" rug with golds, yellows and rust colors. It is perfect for our large outdoor condo balcony In CO that gets NW wind, rain and intense sun exposure. Also, bought the rug padding for underneath as it helps to dry out the rug quickly with its raised holes to allow air under the rug and it gives a softer feel to the rug. Lovely sitting area was created that has a great look for entertaining. My black cast aluminum furniture looks really good on it as it pulls out the black and gold cushions give it the finishing touch. Will roll all up in the winter and bring inside unless our winter is mild. Hasn't needed cleaning; rain washes it down. I'm a barefoot girl and enjoy the feel of it, especially for coffee in the morning. Go for it!! July 28, 2014
Terra Outdoor Area Rug There is a lot of black in the rug which will be good for hiding dirt; the colored parts are varied but the colors go well together. This is a perfect match for the color of my house. It is adjacent to a pair of Copper Columnar Planters and they look very good together. An outdoor rug beats a doormat for a sophisticated look.

Make-up travel around the world
News: from August 27, 2010 I'll be an ambassador jury member for the World's first online make-up competition. Check it out!
On 28 & 29 November 2009 I gave Make-up Workshops on behalf of Face & Figure models magazine, during their Event at 'Beursplaza', World Fashion Center in Amsterdam.
The pics from the event are coming soon. Below you can download the Interview published by Face&Figure magazine recently in their "Model Guide 2010″.
New: Download here (part of) Face & Figure, Model Guide 2010,interview with Alexander - Dutch version, PDF 4.97 Mb (English version Pdf 74.5 Kb), published by Models magazine "Face & Figure", special issue made for - and given to - all visitors of their Event at World Fashion Center in Amsterdam…
New: Download here the Interview with Alexander - PDF (Noordhollands Dagblad, 16-10-2009, Dutch version).
From 2d of May, until 1 of October 2009, I traveled around the world as a make-up artist, doing photoshoots with the photographers and models all around the world. A whole journey took about 5 months. That was my first World Travel. My second world travel is already being planned, thus there's a lot in a pipeline at the moment.
On this website you're more then welcome to read my diary and view the pictures during that trip, daily and/or weekly.
Now that I've got 3 series of vaccines cocktails, I'll take it easy for a month or two, then there is the idea to do a "mini trip" through East, South-east Europe, including Serbia and Russia, for a period of 2 or 3 month.
After the summer 2010 I'll do my 2d world trip, so I'll once again need to fix the world travel ticket and found someone whom I could rent my house… my highest priority at this moment is finding the right photographers and models whom I can have photoshoots with while underway.
Keep tuned!

What can you expect from me?
If you think I ask too much, then read and consider very carefully these lines:
- I will do the make-up for your model(s) for free, and with the same quality I did on the photo's you can see on this page.
- I will write about my visit (to your home and the studio) and describe our shoot on this website and perhaps in a few magazines as well.
- I will publish your photo's on this website (also mentioning your copyright as a photographer and models' portrait rights as well), so you'll take a risk of being famous ;-), or at least get a lots of positive attention world wide.
- I will place permanent link to your website (so you'll get loads of visitors) for free! And with permanent I mean: your link will still be here also after my journey!
- I'll also place your link on my: Easy Makeup ModelMayhem.com profile (can't guarantee this one shall remain permanent though).
- A lots of fun, because I'm fun to be with.

Frey Gets Happy 50th Times Two In 10-0 Win Over Lycoming
Posted: 10/13/2010
Box Score | More Women's Soccer news
By Matt McDermott, GoMessiah.com student manager
Wednesday night, his team gave him an early present.
The Falcons notched two 5-0 halves — a foreshadow to the skipper's 50th — against Lycoming College in a very one sided match at Shoemaker Field, beating the Warriors 10-0.
The scoring started early, and lasted throughout the chilly evening. Senior Amanda Naeher got the party started at the 12:09 mark with a free kick just outside the 18-yard box, displaying both accuracy and power in curving a low shot around the Warriors' wall and off the goalie's diving hands into the net.
In the blink of an eye, Messiah's offense continued, when junior Leah Sipe hit home her second goal of the year. Sipe intercepted a clear and turned towards goal with just over 16 and a half minutes elapsed, launching a hard hit ball with her left foot past the keeper at the 16:40 mark.
Two of the Messiah's next three goals came off play on the wings – those being assisted off passes from freshmen Emily Schneider, and sophomore Rachel Scheibeler at 21:05 and 44:35, respectively — an area where Frey said that Lycoming could not keep up.
"They couldn't handle our wing play," Frey said. "We had great pace and played in the right balls tonight. We had great interplay between the midfield and the wingers, and we made some great crosses and passes into the box that we could finish."
Freshman Ali Rogers also hit a long distance shot, outside the 18 for her fourth goal on the season at the 41:25 mark, coming off an assist from freshman Alicia Frey.
The 5-0 halftime score tied the season-high mark for goals in a half, being done twice in a 7-0 win over Muhlenberg College Sept. 15 and a 7-0 victory over Christopher Newport University Sept. 3.
But for Frey's birthday, the Falcons would repeat their strong effort.
Junior Corinne Wulf polished off her first collegiate hat trick with two second half goals, Rogers notched her second of the game and sophomore Alex Brant and junior Jess Shirk also scored to post back-to-back 5-0 halves to put the icing on the cake.
The seven different goal scorers were the most in a single game all season for Messiah (12-0, 2-0). And with 36 total shots, 18 on goal and seven crosses against Lycoming (7-5, 0-3), Messiah put together one of the best offensive performance of the season. But Frey said he didn't want his strong defense to be overlooked.
"Yes, I did think this was one of the best performances we have had all year," Frey said. "We played really well at getting up, but our back row was very steady. They connected on passes for us. They didn't turn the ball over from the backs to the mids. They were so strong for us."
Some may say that a 10-0 blow out doesn't help a team with National Championship potential, but Frey says the opposite.
"Tonight, everyone played." Frey said. "Everyone got a chance to get into the game and to show what they can do for this team. This helps us by letting everyone get game time experience to play at our high pace, to establish rhythm, to executive what we do in practice on the field. This game helps us this time of year with our decision making, our execution and our discipline. We did all of those things tonight and I'm proud of the effort the girls put out tonight."
Messiah will look to continue its commanding play Saturday against Widener University —ranked 21st in this week's NSCAA/Hendrickcars.com Top 25 Poll — on Messiah's Homecoming weekend. Game time is set for 3 p.m.

Quicksilver 50M Race Report
"Now hush little baby, don't you cry –
Everything's gonna be alright."
- Eminem, "Mockingbird" (video after post)
Yes, it's a strange tune to introduce an ultra report, but Eminem's surprisingly tender love song to his daughter was bouncing through my head for the better part of 50 miles last weekend. It even played a role in my thought process at the end of the day, influencing a decision that was equally surprising to me in light of my pre-race plans. Hopefully this will all make better sense at the end of the post – but for now, let's just get to the report.
I had known about the Quicksilver 50M race for years, but never really considered it in the same category as some higher-profile Northern California ultras. Maybe because the race takes place only one week after the Miwok 100K, Quicksilver always struck me as a younger sibling struggling in the shadow of an older one. Truthfully, if I hadn't been bounced from the Miwok lottery, I would have bypassed Quicksilver again this year.
In that regard, Quicksilver is like Nicky Hilton to Miwok's Paris: while the older sister enjoys huge name recognition for being crazy/sexy and wildly popular, the younger one is still pretty attractive – and still fairly crazy. Even though this race is 12 miles shorter than Miwok, it's still an awful lot to handle.
This year, little sister Quicksilver enjoyed two advantages that weren't present in years past: 1) it's publicity-hogging older sister went to a lottery system and turned away dozens of runners, and 2) Miwok was rainy, cold, and muddy (with about 50 no-shows on race morning) while Quicksilver saw perfect sunny and breezy conditions. The course features 50 tough miles in a beautiful setting, with generous aid station support and great organization. The timing makes it an excellent tune-up for a summer 100-miler. Best of all, it's less than a 90-minute drive from my house.
So … why hadn't I ever done this race before? Oh, that's right - I'm an idiot. On to the pictures:
The speedsters all seemed to be in great spirits prior to the race – maybe they knew about the ideal conditions we'd enjoy. Or perhaps they just felt confident: Chikara Omine (in blue) would go on to take 20 minutes off the course record, and Jean Pommier (in black) would shatter the masters course record by the end of the day. I took this picture, then quickly moved out of their way.
(By the way, the name of this start/finish area is Mockingbird … which immediately triggered the permanent mental loop of the Eminem song I mentioned above. Still more on this later.)
One noticeable difference between Quicksilver and other NorCal ultras like Firetrails, Miwok, and Diablo is that the climbing doesn't punch you in the nose right away. The first mile is fairly gentle, allowing folks to spread out without being bottlenecked by a steep hill or narrow single track.
Of course, the hills are out there, and it's not long before everybody's walking up a major climb.
The sun was starting to peek over the hills, but wouldn't be a huge factor for a little while yet ...
… because we soon headed into the shade of a beautiful single track. This was one of the prettiest sections of the course …
… complete with some unique challenges.
Towards the end of the single track section, the sun was starting to burn through the shadows …
… and by mile 9, we were back out in the open.
The remainder of the race was almost exclusively fire roads, beginning with a climb to the Dam Overlook aid station. It's tucked in a bend in the road here, so you can't see it in this photo – but don't worry, we'll be back here later on.
Most of the climbs during the first 50K were very gradual, and almost entirely runable. Although this 50M course has 8500' of elevation gain (even more than Firetrails), much of it is condensed to a stretch within a few miles of the start/finish area. The rest is fairly tame.
The fire road passes by an old Quicksilver mine, which was the first of several historical remnants we'd end up visiting during our 50-mile journey. This land was a lucrative mining area from the 1840s to the 1970s, whose history lives on in the name of the park and the race.
Here's the story in a nutshell: Ohlone Indians harvested cinnabar from these hills to use for painting or religious ceremonies. They introduced it to European settlers, who discovered that the cinnabar could be heated to release mercury (nicknamed Quicksilver for its liquid property at room temperature), and made mines like this one to extract large quantities of cinnabar from the hills. The industry boomed, and at one point nearly 2000 people lived in settlements - complete with their own schools and churches and stores - in this park.
(See? Ultras aren't just good for your health – they're educational! Meanwhile, back at the race … )
Mile 17 begins a long descent towards the dam again. It starts as a fairly gentle slope, but it's hard to get too excited about doing two straight miles downhill, because …
See those arrows? They mean that we'll be coming back up this trail later. Kinda takes some of the fun out of it.
As the trail gets steeper, you get some pretty cool views of the dam. The aid station we're headed toward is a tiny dot on the right here …
… and a slightly bigger dot here.
Eventually we reach the Dam station again which is a beehive of activity, as 50K and 50-mile runners all pass through here three times. 25K runners also use this station before heading for home – so before long, it's especially tricky to tell who's going where. In other words, it's a busy dam aid station. Thankfully, they have great dam volunteers to keep everybody happy.
Leaving the station, you continue descending to the base of the reservoir, and start a 4.5-mile loop to bring you back to the same spot.
The loop is a popular place for hikers and joggers, and the hills aren't terrible – but with 20 miles on our legs, every incline presents a challenge. It felt strange to see little kids going up and down these trails, while at the same time wondering why I couldn't run very well anymore.
Before long, I made it back to the Dam aid station. I was really glad to see that dam place again. Have I mentioned that they have fine dam people there?
One of them even took my dam picture.
(Is that enough dam jokes for one report? I could keep going – but for brevity's sake, let's just move on.)
The initial climb away from the station isn't too dam steep (sorry, that's one more – it was easy), but the real fun of the course is yet to come.
Beginning at about mile 28, the course gets crazy steep in both directions – you go up and over hills like this one …
… only to plunge down the backside. It's hard to appreciate the slope in this picture, until you see that the hikers are taking it sideways.
The final descent brings you back to the Mockingbird station, which is the 50K finish line. See what's happening in the background there?
It's a barbecue. I don't know about you, but I have a really hard time walking away from a good barbecue on a beautiful day after I've run 31 miles. A REALLY hard time.
Sometime back around mile 20, I ran alongside a guy who had done this race before, and he gave me this warning: "There is a hill after the 50K … it will take something from you. It will not even say please or thank you. It will not even ask for a tip." I have no idea what the heck that even means … but this hill was pretty long and steep. I'm assuming that's what he meant.
The views from this section of the course were quite nice, and the trail led us back into quicksilver history …
This is English Camp, which used to be one of the largest settlements. At one point, almost 1000 people lived in this area. Now it's the site of an aid station. Whether that represents progress is debatable, I guess.
Further along the road is a dilapidated rotary furnace. 37 miles into the race, I felt about the same way this place looks.
The final checkpoint on the course lies 4 miles into the Sierra Azul open space, after which point you'll retrace your steps back to the start.
Almost the entire 4-mile stretch looked exactly like this: wide, smooth, intermittently shady fire road, with an uphill grade on the way out that was so gradual that it's hard to see. Your legs sure feel it, though, and this road seemed to go on forever.
That's Mount Umunhum. Apparently it's a forbidden place. Good thing – otherwise I'm sure we'd be climbing it.
I don't know who was happier: me, for finally reaching the turnaround point, or these enthusiastic volunteers stationed at this remote outpost.
One of them offered to take my picture – he's as nice as those other dam people!
Since the turnaround is the highest point of the course, most of the return trip to Mockingbird is fairly runable – and because I could sense the finish line off in the distance, I caught a second wind of sorts during the final 8 miles. However, while aimlessly pondering the views on my way to the finish, I was contemplating another decision I had been kicking around all week.
Basically, I wanted to keep running after I crossed the finish line. Even though this was a challenging race on its own merit, I was mentally hung up on the idea of "only" doing 50 miles instead of the 62 I could have done at Miwok, and whether missing those miles would be a big factor in my Western States buildup. So my plan coming into this race was to take it easy for 50 miles, then refuel and head back out for another 10 or 12.
That never happened.
A few things foiled my harebrained scheme: first, I had anticipated crossing the 50M finish line prior to the 50K cutoff time – but with my conservative pace, by the time I got to Mockingbird, the aid station there had been broken down. I was hoping to refuel there, but there was no race fuel to be found. However …
Did I mention that there was a barbecue? And if you think I had a hard time walking away from a barbecue on a perfect day after running 31 miles, imagine how tough it would be for me to do it after 50 miles. I feel like I could have done it, though – I ran a steady pace all day long, and my legs were still in decent shape. It wasn't a deficit of ability or confidence that kept me at the finish line – it was one of desire.
Honestly, I just didn't want to do it. In part, I blame that dang Eminem song.
Throughout the day, I had been contrasting the wonderful experience of doing this race with what was going on without me at home. More specifically, on the day before Mother's Day, my wife was at home doing yardwork that was my responsibility, and taking care of two sick kids while trying to prevent a third one from getting ill as well. At the rate I was running, 12 more miles would have taken me three hours – which would be the difference between whether or not I even saw my kids before they went to sleep.
It would just be a day … but on the other hand, it would be another day that I wasn't there. And on this day, I just wanted to hang with my family - and slogging through three more selfish hours seemed kind of greedy. So I grabbed a burger and some strawberries, and pointed the car towards home. I made it back in time for dinner, inspected my son's brand new snakebite (a whole separate story) and tucked in both of my girls at bedtime.
Of course, in hindsight, I'm already second guessing the decision. I don't know what I feel more foolish about: hatching such a crazy scheme in the first place, walking away from the opportunity when it was there, or the little pangs of regret I'm now feeling for placing family interests over being a mileage junkie.
I've explained before that I'm an idiot, haven't I? Of course, to succeed in this sport, I imagine that a little bit of idiocy helps.
"Now hush little baby, don't you cry –
Everything's gonna be alright –
Stiffen that upper lip up little lady, i told ya –
Daddy's here to hold ya through the night."

Psychotherapist's Practice taps "Five Love Languages"
- Wednesday, January 28, 2004
Joan Walmsley is a licensed clinical social worker in Irvine, Calif., who regularly treats singles and couples. As a psychotherapist, she's willing to try new ways to help her patients interpret and manage their relationships.
That's why she started recommending -- and even giving away -- Gary
Chapman's book, "The Five Love Languages," to couples seeking counseling. Walmsley's live-in nanny, Mary Ann Roggers, a Bible college student, gave her a copy of the book and suggested it might help Walmsley in her counseling practice.
"After I read the back of the book, I decided it was worth a try,"
Walmsley said. "I now use it religiously in my practice. The book has been a catalyst to huge changes in relationships. If nothing else, it certainly gets them [couples] talking."
What makes Walmsley's use of the book so special? She's Jewish, and Chapman is a Christian author.
"I understand that it's spiritually based," Walmsley said. "But the principles in it are great and can be applied to any relationship. It doesn't matter what religion you are.
"It really speaks to couples," Walmsley continued. "It just makes
The popular book has sold more than 1.5 million copies, and Chapman holds Toward a Growing Marriage seminars across the country during which he outlines the advice in his book. LifeWay Christian Resources of the Southern Baptist Convention offers the book in a video or DVD learning pack, complete with relationship inventories.
The Five Love Languages operates on the premise that everyone speaks in one of five love languages, and people who recognize their spouses' love language as well as their own can discover new ways to communicate.
The languages:
1. Words of Affirmation
2. Quality Time
3. Receiving Gifts
4. Acts of Service
5. Physical Touch
Roggers moved to the United States from New Zealand when she applied for Spirit Life Bible College in Irvine. A Christian, she has worked for Walmsley a year and a half, even applying some of the teachings in The Five Love Languages in her job as a nanny to Walmsley's three children. She also uses it in relationships.

"Itemization for druids is much better than it was pre-BC. And sorry that my class is item dependand while yours relies on the utility your forms give you. More gear drops for warriors cause warriors NEED gear to compete with other classes."
That's because you don't understand druids at all we are more gear reliant because unlike you we need gear to make up for our build it limitations like paws not scaling past 60. That gear enables you to outpace us in every single category endgame.
"Anyway, I think you miss the point... you talk about gear while I talk about utility. I don't know if you raided preBC, but druids that tried to tank were laughting stock, you gained a lot of ground, and have become better than warriors in many an encounter... and I'll give you a quick example:"
gimmick encounters you will forgive me if I brush off your example. That's like saying because druids can't tank illlidan they are useless. Also take a look at your WOTLK talents blizzard is bloody well giving you everything on a silver plater. AOE tanking, rage from block/parry and much much more. Again you guys bitching and moaning about being outpaced is like a fat kid in a candy store complaining.

Index Chopping Board from Generate Design
Are you careful to use a different cutting board for meat versus vegetables? Since we don't prepare much meat, it's not something we worry about. But if we cooked more, we think these tabbed, picture-labeled cutting boards designed by Damian Evans for Generate Design could be a fun, organized way to keep our surfaces straight...
It looks like there are separate boards for produce, fish, red meat, and it's hard to tell from the photo but maybe eggs or poultry. Each piece is made of polypropylene and is dishwasher safe. We appreciate the streamlined design; even though you're getting four cutting boards, they're taking up very little counter real estate.
$79.00 from Generate Design.

is the white one just for "hot" stuff like a trivet? it looks like steam coming off a bowl. Love this idea though.
I think the white one is for cooked items, so that you're not slicing your cooked meat on the raw-meat cutting board.
I have seen these before, but it seems to me that storing them side-by-side defeats the whole purpose of having separate cutting boards (avoiding cross-contamination).
I think the picture on the white board is actually an onion (the waves being "stink lines"), intended to be used for peppers, onions, and other stuff that can leach odor into other foods.
Oh yeah, to address the contamination thing - I believe the labels are meant to keep things sanitary while preparing something a meal - it just helps you remember where you are cutting vegetables, what has touched raw meat, what has pepper oils on it, etc. Lots of restaurant kitchens use something like this, so that there is no confusion when multiple people are using the same cutting boards. The boards should be washed and "sterile" before being placed in the rack.
OK... I love this...
But $79? Really? Isn't that a bit much for a set of plastic cutting boards?
Aimi...yeah, that makes sense for the white one...cooked vs. raw.
if the white cutting board is for onions, than how come the picture has an onion being cut on a green board? come on people, wake up!
The white one is clearly for when you have to cut your soup.
Wow. Colour coordinated cutting boards for the anal and paranoid. Just what the world needs.
Not a fan of this system.
When my cutting board smells funky I pour baking soda, followed by vinegar.
Remind me not to eat at your house, dude. You wait until it gets funky? Ugh.
There's nothing paranoid about following basic food hygeine, like keeping your raw chicken juices away from your fresh lettuce, or your fishy smell away from your cut fruit.
Too much caution. Have people been dropping dead at alarming rates as a result of cutting meat and veggies on the same cutting board? This is another of those solutions to a made up problem.
Germ-o-phobes are taking over. I think it's because their mothers didn't drink during gestation... ~:o)
cool but overly small.
As for meat and veggies on the same board -- it's no problem if all are cooked. But salmonella and trichonosis can be transferred to raw veggies. Been there, done that. Never again.
i love cutting boards and especially different colors but it is just a bit too pricey for me. nice idea, tho.
yay for kiljoywashere! it's great to read a funny comment in the midst of what is so often not warm or fuzzy.
seriously! it's called washing your cutting board between 'incompatible' ingredients!
It's cute but Gosh! Even more dishes?!?!
Good eye christopher8 and DianaRead - ha ha!
I have a set of cheapo cutting boards that are similarly color coded, so I like this idea. But those boards look a bit small... I need more surface area to prep!
The foot print for the storage thing is too big, the boards are too small, and too expensive. I'm pretty conscientious about raw chicken, however.
Why do all the AT posts insist that these sorts of pricey objects are "fun"?

I don't like to sweeten criticism so I'll say it straight, a WWE/ROH/TNA combination fed is already a turn off despite a lot of dream match-ups being plausible, but even then, the bigger dream match-ups are taken out of the running by you dropping them from the company basically taking away the ONLY positive of a huge mash-up like that. Doesn't hurt that it was totally unrealistic either (not saying that realism is a must). There's also the fact that your shows don't look that attractive either. Think about it, you're at the mall, scouring for a girl, you won't go for the plain ugly looking one, you go for the good looking one. Yours was one of the plain ugly looking ones.

When your mate can't handle money
It might be tempting to seize the reins, but that would be a mistake. Here's a 4-step (and 2-person) plan for building a solid financial foundation for your relationship.
Women often get tagged as spendthrifts, but men can be just as bad. Check out this recent post from our message boards:
"(My husband) and I were paid last Friday, into our joint account. After paying our rent and his student loans, I went to visit my parents for the weekend. Upon my return, I discovered he has spent ALL of the remaining balance of our bank account on fast food, clothing, and going to movies."
How do you cope with a spouse who can't handle money? Some of the Gals in Red advocate ruling with an iron wallet:
* Bing: How to talk about money with your spouse
"Your hubby is behaving like a little boy whose mommy will always come to his rescue and fix everything," wrote one irate woman, who prescribed the following punishment -- I mean, solution:
* Open your own account and have your paycheques go there.
* Divorce your credit from his. Take him off your credit card and vice versa.
* Sit down with your husband and agree about who pays what and when. Put it in writing, and make him sign and date it.
Five impulse buys that drain your cash
Burgernomics: What's a Big Mac worth?
Don't miss back-to-school tax savings
Staying fit -- physically & financially
The rewards of lazy investing
Blog: Does buying a cottage make sense?
It's so tempting to play dictator, especially when your spouse behaves irresponsibly (or takes refuge in a state of perpetual cluelessness). But, I've found, that isn't the road to a strong fiscal partnership.
As one reader put it: "I don't think this is about money, I think it is about communication. . . . There are better ways to handle the situation than to treat your spouse like a criminal (or a) child."
I'm not saying it's easy. It has taken all seven years of my relationship to get 80% on the same financial page as my spouse. And we still stumble. Recent example: Although he's in charge of paying bills (a triumph for him and a relief for me), I'm the one who had set up our automatic transfers to our ING savings accounts. That means he balances our checking account according to bills paid, often forgetting to include withdrawals for savings. The other day we came within $1.94 of overdrawing our account. Again.
Whose fault was that? We try to skip the blame game and go right to a solution. In this case, my husband needed a written record of the weekly savings withdrawals. Simple. Better communication solved the problem.
* Tell us:Has money come between you and your partner?
So when I hear women say that they can't trust their partners or that "he makes so many mistakes with our money that I have to take over," I don't buy it. Taking control doesn't solve the underlying problem (unless you want a mate who is perpetually helpless).
One issue might be confidence: Some men are just as anxious about money as many women are and dislike managing it. If your mate is fumbling the ball, he may lack basic money skills -- which can masquerade as a sort of macho indifference. ("Yeah, I spent the money for our bills on clothes. So?") Those skills can be learned.
But from what I've seen, most couples never take the most basic steps of setting up a financial foundation for their relationship. Here's how to do it:
* Agree on at least one goal, whether you want to get out of debt, save for a car, give the kids hockey lessons or visit the Outer Banks. Your priorities establish a base from which you make other money decisions. This is the most important first step.
* Play to each other's strengths. My husband is great at handling day-to-day expenses. I'm good at monitoring the overall monthly/yearly budgets and planning for our retirement.
* Talk daily about money. Each partner should know the baseline of what's going on: the balance in the household accounts, the cost of upcoming expenses and how much can be spent on what each week or month.
* Respect each other's "needs" and negotiate them. If you "need" to get your hair done and he "needs" a flat-screen TV, figure out what's possible financially and plan accordingly. Nobody gets everything they want, in life or in marriage, so be flexible.
A month without spending
I finally committed to control my spending in August.
With about $6,000 in our emergency fund around the beginning of August, that left only five months to save an additional $9,000 to meet our 2009 goal of $15,000.
That's $1,800 a month, for those of you who left your calculators at home.
* Related:Why are we fighting about money?
Where on earth is that going to come from?
* We have been saving about $900 a month since March, when I joined an online saving support group.
* We can add $300 a month, thanks to my husband's new part-time teaching job.
* I'm trying to land a project myself now that could provide the additional $600 a month -- keep your fingers crossed!
For those of you interested in saving more, consider joining a saving group in the Your Money section of our message boards. All you have to do is show up, state your goals and try to reach them.
* Some people aim to have five, 10 or 25 "no spend days" (NSDs), and a similar target for their "controlled spend days" (CSDs).
* Some people define an NSD as zero spending. Some define it as just not spending frivolously (i.e., paying bills is OK, but shopping at yard sales is not).
* A CSD might mean spending no more than, say, $5 or $10.
The idea of an entire month of not spending can sound Draconian, one reader said, "but once I came to understand that it . . . was more about finding a way that worked for you to track your spending and any 'leaks' in the wallet, it has felt more like a tool and less like a punishment."
I'm also finding, just a couple of weeks in, that joining this group is helping me to take my own commitment more seriously to spend less -- and is a great complement to being in the Savers group.
When I was on vacation earlier this month, it was hard not to buy all the cute things I wanted. But thinking of August as a month of controlled spending helped me to avoid many frivolous items (I did buy a couple of items -- on sale, of course!).
When baby . . . makes you buy a new car
I love our online support group. It's packed with information and inspiration. And there's always a zinger in the mix -- some off-road topic that strikes a nerve. This week's live wire, still going strong, is a "baby car argument" thread.
Basically, a young couple are on a deadline. Baby arrives in February, and they need a new car. Or do they?
She has a sturdy little Corolla she loves (and it's low maintenance). He has a Ford Focus that she hates (it needs continual repairs). Both are compact, two-door cars.
Now, with a baby making three - and in need of a car seat -- should they make do with their current cars or trade one in for a four-door vehicle? And should it be her car?
I remember those new-baby days. My best advice: If you don't absolutely have to buy a car or a new home or even a new crib, don't.
Children are expensive in ways you can't possibly anticipate, as data from the 2009 survey from the U.S. Department of Agriculture reveal: For a typical American family, the cost of raising a second child born last year to age 18 will be about $221,000. That doesn't include college, sorry. (For details, read "How much does it cost to have kids?")
Your best bet as a new parent is to have no debt, plenty of money in savings (for backup child care, for time off without pay, for multiple trips to the doctor, etc.) and a manageable plan for your own retirement. A car will soon be the least of your worries.

A major force in 21st century concert music, Victoria Bond leads a dual career as composer and conductor. Her compositions have been praised by the New York Times as "powerful, stylistically varied and technically demanding," and her conducting has been called "impassioned" by the Wall Street Journal and "full of energy and fervor" by the New York Times.
Victoria Bond's new groundbreaking opera, Mrs. President, tells the true story of Victoria Woodhull, who, in 1872, was the first female candidate to run for the US presidency. Anchorage Opera presented the premiere of the newly orchestrated score of Mrs. President in October, 2012.

The roots of the enterprise go back to the '70s, when Bond assisted Pierre Boulez with the Juilliard New Music Ensemble.

Not a bad list, certainly.
Not a bad list, certainly.
Being a rogue with a decent set of mainly non-Kara gear, and only the odd trinket blue ruining my epic string.... dueling with other rogues is something that I get asked or whispered for all the time.
If it's a friend or guildie then I usually agree - but 9 times out of 10 I decline. It is because with rogues especially, it's not a matter of gear or ability, but who can CS the other one first!

This was absolutely delicious, with the added bonus of being quick and easy. My favorite type of recipe.I didn't use arugula, just romaine. Both the husband and the daughter loved it, although my daughter had it without the sauce. And they've both requested that I make it again next week, which I will be happy to do. Loved everything about this recipe.

A super-sized sow from Palmetto is gaining quite a reputation for being ornery. He's also gained a lot of weight since his owner David Gamery took him in as a pet four years ago.
But when Gamery's home was foreclosed on over the weekend, he worried his hefty hog might end up in the slaughterhouse. That is, until his neighbors stepped in to rescue his prized pig.
Arnold is a 1,000 porker from Palmetto that's getting a lot of attention.
"He likes to eat," said his new owner, Mike Armstrong, as Arnold snorted a loud, 'yes' in response.
"How do you know if he's content?" we asked as Arnold munched on bananas.
"Because he's not charging us," laughed Armstrong.
"Ya' hamming it up, huh?," Armstrong asked the pig – with no pun intended.
Mike and Patty Armstrong took on the super-sized swine on a whim.
"I stopped at a garage sale there on Sunday two weeks ago," explained Mike Armstrong.
He bought a motorcycle from Arnold's owner, David Gamery, but ended up going home with two "hogs."
"He said, 'I got a pig I'll give you,' and I said, 'give me?' Yeah, he said, but you can't slaughter it," said Armstrong, who was so touched that Gamery had raised Arnold since he was a mere 50-pound piglet.
He just had to save him.
Arnold is a Yorkshire pig and most don't live past 100 pounds, when they're prime cuts for the butcher. As you might imagine, there were no shortages of offers to slaughter this swine.
"But their money was worth no more than the mud that pig was lying in because he wanted to keep it alive," said Armstrong.
Gamery's house went up for a short sale and the new owners are letting Arnold stay a few days extra, until the Armstrongs can get him moved.
They left a trailer wide open and loaded with goodies.
"We had rigged it up to take and get the pig to come up in here but the pig had better ideas," said Armstrong. "And we left it there actually for two days and he wouldn't eat the cantaloupe, or he just stayed away from it. He knew something was going on, you know."
"They're very smart, yes," he said. "They're probably smarter than us. If this was lined with a bunch of sandwiches and stuff, we'd probably come right up here and eat."
Arnold took off running every time we tried getting closer.
He's had a rough week with so many people stopping by to check him out and to say hello. He's really getting agitated by the whole thing.
"He'll swing his head around at you or something like that," said Armstrong. "Then you know to stay away from him."
Arnold gets a new home on 16 acres and joins the Armstrong's seven rescue dogs.
The next step is getting the portly porker on a diet.
"They eat anything and everything that you put in front of them," laughed Patty Armstrong.
"There's pasta, potatoes, and Arnold," laughed Mike Armstrong. "And dog food."
And they're making the new diet a family affair.
"It's me, Mike and Arnold," said Patty Armstrong. "Well, I think we're just going to have to cut out some of those potatoes and rice and pasta and put him on some good green vegetables."
She believes part of Arnold's irritability is due to heartbreak over losing his prior owner.
"And I think that's part of it," chimed-in her husband. "He probably thinks that he's going to be slaughtered or something, but he doesn't realize he's going to be rescued."
The Armstrongs say Gamery has a standing invitation to stop by their home and visit Arnold any time he likes. Arnold's become somewhat of an overnight sensation.
"You know, I'm getting that vibe from a lot of people," said Patty Armstrong. "Somebody said they thought he could go viral, somebody even suggested painting him on one side for advertisement, you know, and putting a web cam out."
She said that's not going to happen. They're thrilled they could rescue him and keep him happy. No reason to get piggish about it.

6 Giant Spider Bots You Can Ride
8 comments post a comment
"Why would you not want to see a giant robot stomping down the street?" asked one of this project's team members in a video (above).
Stompy isn't finished yet. Sadly, this means no amazing video of Stompy stomping around. Even so, this up-and-coming arachnid still deserves attention. After a successfull kickstarter campaign, blowing away their goal of $65,000 and reaching a total of $97,817, construction began.
Stompy is a 4,000-pound 18-foot-diameter rideable hexapod. At least, it will be. While the build blog hasn't been updated since August of 2013, I've personally been to the location where Stompy is being worked, the Artisans Asylum in Boston, on and have seen progress. I didn't get to see anything in action, but I witnessed new leg designs that had recently been fabricated to overcome some strength issues.
Here's a fun video that shows more of the actual completed parts of Stompy. If you want to see one of the full sized legs in action, skip to roughly three minutes.

Is protein good for everyone? Not just body-builders?
Whether you are young or old, man or woman, bodybuilder or soccer mom – protein is essential to your health and fitness goals. Our bodies use protein from the diet for a variety of purposes – including for support of lean muscle, hormone synthesis, production of enzymes, and even as an energy source when needed. The structures in our bodies that use protein are constantly being remodeled, which is why a sufficient protein intake is important every single day.
Anyone who engages in an active lifestyle including athletes, bodybuilders, fitness buffs or casual exercisers will have increased protein requirements over the general couch potato. This is why protein supplements are recommended for anyone looking to improve their overall health and physique. A good rule of thumb is to consume .8 to 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight in order to support and build lean muscle. Overweight and obese individuals whose main goal is weight-loss should follow a reduced-calorie diet which may require less total protein. Consult your health care practitioner before beginning any diet or exercise program.
Are Body Fortress® quality products at such affordable prices?
All of our products offer the highest quality ingredients available. To ensure this, our products undergo rigorous analysis for purity, potency, safety and freshness. Furthermore, our state-of-the-art laboratory, manufacturing and packaging facilities ensure the highest quality nutritional supplements money can buy. With Body Fortress®, you can be assured you're receiving the best products available.
When is the best time for doing cardio - before a weight-training workout or after a weight-training workout? In the morning, or evening?
Deciding when to do your cardio exercises really depends on your individual goals.
Building Lean Muscle
If your main goal is to build lean muscle, then you should limit the amount of cardio sessions you perform each week and try to do them on days when you are not weight-training. If you have to perform your cardio and weight-training workouts on the same day due to time constraints, then you should do your cardio exercise after weight-training. This will allow you to focus all of your energy on lifting before you are tired.
Improving Cardiovascular Fitness
If you are looking to improve your endurance or cardiovascular fitness, then you should do your cardio workouts before weight-training. This will ensure that you don't deplete your energy stores needed for cardio from prior weight-training. If possible, perform your cardio workouts and weight-training workouts on different days.
Losing weight or body fat
Since cardio exercise generally burns more calories than weight-training, you'll want to perform cardio exercise first so you can focus more of your energy on burning calories.
Morning vs. Evening
The most important factor to consider when deciding when to do cardio is what will fit best into your schedule. If you find that your schedule in the evening is often busy or always changing, than it is probably best to perform cardio in the morning to make sure you get it out of the way. However, if you are not a morning person than you'll have to be honest with yourself and decide if you'll really be able to commit to getting out of bed early to exercise.
If your main goal is to burn fat, you may want to consider exercising first thing in the morning when your carbohydrate stores are low. One study found that the total amount of fat burned during exercise and two hours afterwards was higher when subjects ate after exercising as opposed to before.1

What products can I stack together for optimal results?
There are several Body Fortress® products that work well together and provide synergistic benefits.
Test Pro-Complex with Super Mass Gainer
A stack designed for the serious bodybuilder who is training on his heaviest cycle. Utilizing some of the most popular ingredients for men of the market, Test Pro-Complex goes beyond conventional products. 1 serving per day is all you need when pushing your workouts beyond their limits. For individuals looking to pack on solid powerful mass, add in Super Mass Gainer.* Loaded with Whey Protein and Muscle Glycogen Building Carbs our Super Mass Gainer is the Ultimate Muscle Mass Fuel.*
Triple Strength L-Carnitine 1500 with Super Advanced Whey Isolate
A versatile stack made for those individuals looking to cut down, build lean muscle or just get into better shape. Our Triple Strength L-Carnitine 1500 can support endurance exercise and convert food to energy during those grueling cardio sessions.* After you've completed your workout, re-charge your body with Super Advanced Whey Isolate. Our Ultra-Pure contains minimal amounts of carbohydrates and fats while providing the body with 30g of protein per scoop, making this lean stack a great way to support training and recovery.*
Super NOS Blast with Super Mass Gainer:
Super NOS Blast is perfect as a pre-workout supplement as it boosts energy levels and mental focus needed for intense training – allowing you to work harder in the gym.* After you've expended all of that energy in the gym, Super Mass Gainer provides the protein and carbs needed to replenish your muscle energy stores and will help you build lean muscle.*
Super NOS Blast with
Super Advanced Whey Protein:
For individuals that don't need as many calories as Super Mass Gainer provides, Super Advanced Whey Protein can be used to help build or maintain lean muscle in a lower calorie formula.*
Glutamine with Creatine (Super Advanced Creatine High Performance)
Creatine is the top supplement available for improving workout performance and promoting muscle size and strength.* Glutamine levels can be depleted during hard training, which may occur to a greater degree when using Creatine, since creatine allows you to work harder in the gym.*
Super NOS Pump with
any other Body Fortress product:
Super NOS Pump promotes nitric oxide synthesis, which helps increase blood flow and nutrient delivery to muscles.*When taken with other Body Fortress® products, Super NOS Pump can help increase delivery of the active ingredients to the muscles through its support of blood flow.*
Is creatine best for endurance athletes or those looking toweight train?
Creatine is best for weight-trainers as it helps improve performance during high-intensity, short duration exercise.* Creatine can also be beneficial for athletes looking to improve their power such as cyclists, sprinters, and in sports including football, basketball, tennis, baseball and other similar sports.* Some endurance athletes may find that low doses of creatine can help them improve their sprinting ability towards the end of a race.
What are the best products to take if my main goal is to gain muscle?
Since you will need increased calories and protein in order to build muscle – Super Mass Gainer and Super Advanced Whey Protein should be staples in your nutrition plan. You will also need to continually increase the overall intensity of your weight-training workouts, and no supplement works better than creatine for improving the amount of reps you can do in the gym.* Super NOS Pump provides creatine and also has the added benefits of the Neuro-Energy Blend and more in order to fire up your energy levels and focus.*
What are the best products to take if my main goal is to increase aerobic endurance?
Super NOS Pump
Super NOS Pump is a great companion to your endurance workouts as it helps to support blood flow and circulation, both of which are increased during endurance activity.*
Glutamine can help with recovery after a long run, bicycle workout or other endurance training.* Glutamine may also help replenish muscle glycogen stores when combined with carbohydrates, which can help you refuel and recharge your muscle stores before your next training session.*
Super Advanced Whey Protein
Protein is also very important for anyone engaged in endurance exercise as studies have shown runners and other endurance athletes have very high protein requirements. Super Advanced Whey Protein can make it easy to get the extra protein your body needs while supporting recovery and helping maintain lean muscle.*
When is the best time of day to take whey protein?
Whey protein is a great addition to your diet any time of the day. The most important time to take whey would be right after your workout, when your muscles need protein the most for recovery and to help build or maintain lean muscle.*
You can also try incorporating whey protein into your diet at the following times.
With Meals:Drink along with your meal to increase the overall protein quality and content. You can also mix into oatmeal or add to recipes such as pancake and waffle mixes.
In Between Meals:Keeps levels of amino acids elevated so your body doesn't go into a catabolic state that may otherwise lead to muscle loss.*
Before Bed:To keep levels of amino acids elevated in your body while you sleep, add whey to your last meal or snack of the day.
Can women benefit from Body Fortress® products?
Women can absolutely benefit from Body Fortress® products. Protein is important for men and women alike, and helps support recovery and maintain lean muscle for anyone engaged in an exercise program.*
Super NOS Pump is another great product for men or women because it can support blood flow and circulation during weight training and cardiovascular exercise.*
For more information on which products you can incorporate into your diet, see the Women's Meal Plan.

SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. - The University of Northern Colorado wrestlers opened their western road swing with a 22-16 defeat at the hands of Cal Poly Friday evening.
The Mustangs (6-8) opened the meet with a pair of decisions at 149 and 157 before Devon Lewis got the Bears (5-8) on the board with an 8-0 major decision at 165.
Chase Walker followed with a 7-5 decision at 174 to give the Bears a 7-6 lead, and after a setback at 184, Calen Nicholl scored a forfeit win at 197 to make the score 13-9.
Unfortunately, the Mustangs took three of the final four matches - with Tony Mustari's 7-2 win at 125 the only Northern Colorado victory - to notch the win.
The Bears travel to Cal State Fullerton Saturday for an 8 p.m. meeting with the Titans.
