grants for academic study or classroom presentation, for travel to
conferences, for non-scholarly projects, for assistance with
translation, or for the preparation of materials for use by students.

or costs of publication. Applicants may be U.S. citizens and residents of the United States or
American citizens resident abroad. Foreign nationals not affiliated with
U.S. institutions are eligible to apply for projects to be carried out
in the United States, although applicants to the Lewis and Clark Fund

Assessing potential metabolic capabilities of abundant microbes using metagenomic short-reads
This fileset includes data from a single SOLiD sequencing run on a water sample taken from Puget Sound, WA. The sequences were checked for quality control and assembled into contigs prior to these analyses. The contigs were annotated using reference databases and separated by their taxonomic identification. The top taxa were further analyzed to assess their potential metabolic capabiltiy by comparing the genes recovered to the KEGG gene maps of cultured organisms.

#Sophia Fakes a #BOO-BOO
I could walk around with a bruise under my eye or above my eye and not one damn person in my house hold or family would say one word… THAT'S HOW MUCH WE DON'T CARE ABOUT LOOKS IN MY FAMILY Sophia this morning was soooooo making up that she had a boo-boo on her arm; she was a fanatic for a Bandage… It was really a tantrum in the making, so between me writing my next book on the computer and her Spanish show on her computer, I kept hearing " Mommy I'm bleeding", every time I looked over I saw and said the same thing about 50 times "I see nothing, and you're not bleeding" After this back and fourth of nothingness but just an outlet of excuses to get what this 3 year old soon to be four year old wants It's now a melting pot of handholds, jerking me, fake whining, and a toilet about ready to over flow with water. So I bounced up like it was the MAY DAY Parade and Found a new box of bandages and opened them and gave her 5. My ending words, Please make sure there's no more imaginary boo-boos and bandage Strawberry (her dog) too. AWHHH HAPPY FAMILY, -Farrah

FOX 32 News has teamed up with no-kill shelter PAWS Chicago to bring you an adoptable pet each week. This week, we're featuring a special needs kitten with one eye named DeeDee.
DeeDee is a 4-month-old male kitten who was living on the streets before he found his way to PAWS Chicago.
When veterinarians examined him, they discovered DeeDee had severe trauma to one of his eyes, which they had to remove.

CATEGORY: Film Editing
INTERVIEW WITH: Kirk Baxter and Angus Wall
FILM: "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo"
Q. Coming at THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO is a completely different movie from THE SOCIAL NETWORK. What were some of the challenges in cutting this kind of movie?
A. [Kirk Baxter] Its length.
A. [Angus Wall] Yeah. The screenplay was much, much longer than THE SOCIAL NETWORK so there's the proportional amount of footage and performance to go through was just a much a bigger task in a lot of ways.
A. [Baxter] and If it was being written like conceptive for a film, I think it would have been a different thing, but it came from a book and you have to kind of work with what you had. So it was a new way to kind of Zaillian did a terrific job, but it was a challenge.
Q. I was just wondering, Best Picture and Best Editing seems to go hand in hand over the past probably 30 years, and I was wondering, first of all, why, you know, why are they so intertwined, traditionally, and why this year the exception?
A. [Wall] I think we definitely thought they went hand and hand, too. I think we were genuinely surprised. I don't ever remember being so surprised in my life when they called us, quite honestly. I think they go hand in hand because
A. [Baxter] They're one and the same thing, and that's the end result you're looking for is the final outcome of the film. What you're working towards in the editing.
Q. I happened to have a chance to talk to Jeff Cronenweth about this film earlier and he talked about the differences between SOCIAL NETWORK and this and partly using the Swedish or Nordic palette, not only the landscape, but even the work of the Swedish film artist like Sven Nyquist. So the fact that this already exists as a foreign film and is literally and sort of figuratively a different language, did that affect the rhythms at all with the editing like compared to an American based story like THE SOCIAL NETWORK?
A. [Wall] Well, luckily it's in English so we didn't have to deal with really foreign language, and I think the cadence of the actors is what it is, I mean regardless of whether they have a Swedish bent or not, the job, the task at hand for us is very much the same.
A. [Baxter] Are they laughing at you?
A. [Wall] No. I'm assuming something happened on the show.
Q. Hi guys, congratulations. We were wondering how much David Fincher give you direction in order to do the editing knowing that it was different from the Swedish film, how different was it for you actually doing that kind of editing knowing that so many people have seen the original?
A. [Baxter] The original, I mean I can only speak for myself but the original film was I don't know if this is a harsh word, it was irrelevant to me because I'm being responsive to what Fincher shot, so it doesn't matter if ten million movies came before it. We're reacting to what David gives us as a director.
Q. Number two in a row. Are you getting used to this now? You seem genuinely surprised. I think you thought you would have no hope?
A. [Baxter] We weren't expecting it at all and there's no getting used to this. This is a very absurd place to be standing.
A. [Wall] Quite so.
Q. Of the footage that you had to cut, was there anything that you particularly were sorry about or was just gorgeous but you had to cut it?
A. [Wall] No.
A. [Baxter] No. We were very happy with the end result of the movie. There was nothing we wish that was in there that we cut out. It stopped when it was at its best.
Q. Hi, congratulations. I think you've talked about being surprised. Do you know how much Oscar geeks focus on the editing category? I guess I'm not geeky enough. I don't know how many years it's been. The editing category is supposed to lead to best picture. Were you aware of the whole streak, and again were you aware that in terms of Oscar geek the odds were against you?
A. [Baxter] I think we were flabbergasted when we were standing there, kind of speaks for itself. Movies have momentum behind them. There's a few films this year that have that momentum. Our movie wasn't nominated for Best Picture so it was surprising for us.
A. [Wall] I think, you know what, this is kind of a win for David because he's our sort of the third wheel of our little tricycle.
A. [Baxter] Front wheel.
A. [Wall] The big wheel in front. I kind of consider it a win for him.

An investigation of a complaint of trespassers at an abandoned home in Port Chester led to the arrest of a village resident on a drug possession charge, according to Port Chester Police.
Police said a village officer checking a home on Glendale Place spotted two men coming from the house at about 9:15 p.m. on Sunday. As the officer approached them, police said, one of the men ran off.
James Garcia, 22, of 3 Ridgeview Place, Port Chester, was questioned by police. Lt. James Ladeairous said that in the process officers found several bags of marijuana on Garcia.
Garcia was charged with fourth-degree criminal possession of marijuana, a misdemeanor. He was later released pending a March 11 hearing in Port Chester Village Court.
Ladeairous said the second person involved in the incident was stopped by police. Francesco Maldonado, 23, of 465 N. Main St., Port Chester, was charged with obstruction of governmental administration, a misdemeanor, for running away. He faces a Feb. 25 hearing.

Earning six National Coach-of-the-Year awards, coaching 36 national champions and molding student-athletes' futures for 30 years at Nebraska Wesleyan University, it didn't seem like there was much left for Adjunct Professor of Education and Director of Cross Country and Track and Field Ted Bulling to accomplish for the Prairie Wolves.
Then in December 2010, at the United States Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) convention in San Antonio, Texas, Bulling's peers bestowed a new honor and new responsibilities upon him.
Bulling was named president of the USTFCCCA, a role he will begin September 1. Bulling replaces outgoing president Curtis Frye from the University of South Carolina.
It's an honor for Coach Bulling, Nebraska Wesleyan University, and the entire NCAA Division III. Bulling is the first coach in NCAA III history to be named president of the USTFCCCA.
"I'm honored my peers chose me to be their president," said Bulling. "To be the first NCAA III coach to be selected is also quite humbling. I credit my assistant coaches and the wonderful student-athletes who have gone through our program for bringing the kind of national attention that makes this sort of thing happen."
NWU Athletic Director Ira Zeff said the election "shows the ultimate respect that Ted Bulling has earned from track coaches of all levels across the nation. The respect is not just for his coaching knowledge and accomplishments but more importantly for who he is and the values he represents."
The national recognition is another highlight for Nebraska Wesleyan's renowned track and field and cross country programs. The notoriety will boost recruiting in the state and region. Running for the Prairie Wolves means nothing short of running for some of the best coaches in the country.
"Ted Bulling is an outstanding leader. His knowledge, work ethic and mentoring enable everyone in his program to reach their full potential as athletes and students," Zeff added. "Ted has made NWU track and field one of the best NCAA III programs in the nation."
Coach Bulling has influenced many student-athletes during and after college. Just hours after the USTFCCCA's announcement, Bulling received several congratulatory messages from his former student-athletes.
Taylor Tacha, a sophomore hurdler from Bertrand, Neb., echoed her team's excitement for Coach Bulling's newest honor. "Ted is a truly incredible coach. On the track he pays close attention to each athlete's practices and performances, constantly pushing us to improve," she said. "Ted cares about us both academically and personally and sincerely wishes for each of us to be successful."
Currently, over 100 NWU student-athletes benefit from Bulling's leadership. Come September, another 8,000 coaches across the nation will, too.

4th Generation Texan

After serious thought, I have determined what the most dangerous thing there is for the welfar, prosperity and safety of America and it's people...the GOVERNMENT.
Thanks to our wonderful government we are broke, suffering from a big case of 'kiss butt' (thanks to Obama), losing our reputation and respect worldwide, unable to compete due to overregulation and taxation.
Thank you Mr. Average Congressman for killing the future of this generation! I have no confidence that you see the problem and even if you did, would you do anything about it? Doubtful! Greed and power drives you and your colleagues. The only hope that I have is that somehow Obama will not be in office after 2012 and the Senate will get realligned to be dominated by conservatives. A Pox on all your houses! Another good sign is the ascencion of the Tea Party Group....they see they problem and they're trying to position the right people in Washington with the correct ideas of governing that will help get us out of this mess! It is so obvious that Obama is not the solution, he is the problem!

Obama vows to socialise more in his second term
From Lalit K Jha
Washington, Jan 14 (PTI) With her two daughters growing older and not willing to spend too much time with him, US President Obama today lamented his loneliness in the White House and vowed more socialising in his second term.
At the final press conference of his first term, Obama was asked why he doesn''t socialise more often. The president protested in reply, "I''m a pretty friendly guy I like a good party."
"The nice thing is that now that my girls are getting older, they don''t want to spend that much time with me anyway, so I''ll be probably calling around, looking for somebody to play cards with me or something, because I''m getting kind of lonely in this big house." Obama said.
"So maybe a whole bunch of members of the House Republican caucus want to come over and socialise more."
"But my suspicion is, getting the issues resolved, the big stuff, whether or not we get sensible laws passed to prevent gun violence, whether or not America''s paying its bills, whether or not we get immigration reform done, all that''s going to be determined largely by where the respective parties stand on policy and, maybe most importantly, the attitude of the American people," he said.
Obama was responding to questions related to the criticism against him that that he does not socialize enough, which many believe is the key to resolving differences.
"With respect to this truism about me not socializing enough, and patting folks on the back and all that stuff, most people who know me know I''m a pretty friendly guy," he said.
"I like a good party. You know the truth is that, you know when I was in the Senate, I had great relationships over there, and up until the point that I became President, this was not an accusation that you heard very frequently.
"I think that really what''s gone on in terms of some of the paralysis here in Washington, or difficulties in negotiations, just have to do with some very stark differences in terms of policy," he bobserved.
"Some very sharp differences in terms of where we stand on issues, and you know if you think about, let''s say myself and Speaker (John) Boehner, I like Speaker Boehner personally.
"And when we went out and played golf, we had a great time. But that didn''t get a deal done in 2011. When I''m over here at the Congressional picnic, and folks are coming up and taking pictures with their family, I promise you, Michelle and I are very nice to them, and we have a wonderful time," he said.
"But it doesn''t prevent them from going onto the floor of the House and, you know, blasting me for being a big-spending socialist. And the reason that in many cases Congress votes the way they do or talks the way they talk, or takes positions in negotiations that they take, doesn''t have to do with me. It has to do with the imperatives that they feel in terms of their own politics. Right? They''re worried about their district. They''re worried about what''s going on back home," Obama said.
"I promise you, we invite folks from Congress over here all the time. And when they choose to come, I enjoy their company. Sometimes they don''t choose to come, and that has to do with the fact that I think they don''t consider the optics useful for them politically. And ultimately, the way we''re going to get stuff done, personal relationships are important," said the US President.

This past summer some unincorporated areas of Maurice were added to their city limits and now some residents say they don't want to be in it. The village expanded its corporate limits south on highway 167 and east on highway 92, by almost a mile and a half each way.
Residents along highway 92 say they want to go back to being in the unincorporated areas. They signed a petition and brought it before the council last night. Both the mayor and residents are speaking out on the pros and cons of being within corporate limits. Mayor Wayne Theriot says those within the limits can now participate in city government.
They can also get village police protection and some may even receive better insurance rates because the village has a better fire rating. But Tricia Rabalais, who used to be in the unincorporated areas, says being within city limits is not worth it. All she got from the change was a two percent increase in tax. Rabalais is one of the people who signed the petition.
Mayor Theriot says if everything gets approved by the council and the state the area could proceed to be contracted out from the corporate limits by late summer.

Guy Norman confirmed as Clifford Chance corporate head
25 February 2014
Activity of international banks' branches
15 August 2014
&AOld stereotypes die hard. But if nothing else, Allen & Overy (A&O) and Clifford Chance have been assiduous in dispatching one this past year: that the two firms are only the banking giants within the magic circle.
The firms' respective banking teams might still play leading roles, but it appears they are now having to share centre stage with their corporate counterparts.
The latest M&A tables show that the two firms top the European rankings, overtaking magic circle rivals Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer and Linklaters. A&O led Thomson Financial's year-to-date table, advising on $400bn (£199.06bn) worth of deals, with Clifford Chance in second place with $356bn (£177.16bn).
As well as powerful banking practices, the respective teams share other features: both have been boosted by the M&A market of the past two years, in which private equity and highly leveraged deals have figured; both have significant overseas presences that have been heavily promoted into at partner level; and both teams are now contributing more in real terms to firmwide revenue than they have ever done in the past.
But despite similarities the reasons for Clifford Chance's corporate strength are very different from those for A&O's.
Clifford Chance's rise is perhaps easier to chart. Partners might complain that outsiders think it's all about private equity, but it's hard to see how the behemoth team could not have an influence.
Global head of corporate Peter Charlton maintains that private equity accounts for just 25 per cent of London corporate work. But that quarter has got to be the most prominent: half of London's top 10 deals this year are private equity-based.
That said, the biggest deal on the list was not. Landing the Barclays instruction was no massive surprise, but it did take Charlton and corporate partner Guy Norman five years to cultivate the relationship with general counsel Mark Harding once he left Clifford Chance to go in-house - with the help of Barclays relationship partner and global head of banking Mark Campbell, mind you.
But why not sing the private equity team's efforts from the top of Canary Wharf? Aside from everyone being bored of that tune, a snobbery still exists that a firm can't have a 'proper' corporate practice without a 'proper' amount of FTSE100 clients. For the record, Clifford Chance has 10, says Charlton.
That's fewer than any of the other magic circle firms. As the result of a merger of two firms with solid but less-than-glittering corporate practices, Clifford Chance could never hope to have the FTSE client list of Slaughter and May. Charlton explains: "Unless there's a fallout or major conflict, most FTSE100 clients don't normally shop around for law firms. You pick them up on conflicts, or you're offered a job because they're unhappy."
According to one of Charlton's partners, the team would like more FTSE100 clients. "We market in every way you can imagine," says the partner. "But to be honest, if we had to choose between our private equity clients and a load of new FTSE100 clients, we'd choose the private equity clients every time. They're the ones doing the deals."
But for how long?Surely for a private equity-heavy corporate practice such as Clifford Chance's, an impending credit crunch might be a problem? Charlton dismisses such doomsaying. "The credit squeeze will mean there's not the same level of private equity-based activity in the short term, but private equity is sitting on a wall of money that needs to be invested," he claims.
Besides, there are plenty of corporates, and not necessarily FTSE100 ones, that are willing to do the deals.
The corporate group's clout within Clifford Chance is harder to measure. Certainly, group partner promotions have doubled over four years. Revenue contribution has increased steadily from 25 per cent of firmwide turnover in 2004-05 to just under 30 per cent last year. But, says one partner, for every pound earned by corporate, another pound is earned in another department of the firm.
Incidentally, four of the 17-strong management committee are corporate partners: Charlton, European representative Ignacio Ojanguren, New York head Craig Medwick and, of course, managing partner David Childs.
A&O's corporate team has also benefited from a record number of promotions. April's batch was significant, because for the first time corporate overtook banking in the number of new partners made up, with 10 to banking's eight.
Global corporate head Richard Cranfield warns against reading too much into promotions. "It's not a competition," he jokes. "These things turn on individuals and particular business cases. The firm promotes where it feels investment is worthwhile."
Globally the corporate practice has had a storming year, pulling in a revenue of around £275m, or 31 per cent of firmwide turnover. Deals not included in the London table above include Tyco's whopping £32.4bn spin-off (garnering the most fees for A&O since Marconi's 2003 restructuring) and the £16bn takeover of client Nuon by Essent. Both deals demonstrate A&O's corporate jurisdictional focus in the last couple of years.
The US has seen massive investment and landing a place on General Electric's M&A panel is a landmark instruction. "These kind of deals create real opportunities across the network: they have significant cross-border elements and that plays to our strengths," explains Cranfield.
The Dutch M&A practice, originally Loeff Claeys Verbeke, has always been one of the strongest teams in the European region. Three of A&O's 10 biggest London deals are all related to the merger discussions (still unresolved) for ABN Amro, a longstanding Dutch-sourced client. A&O is advising on English aspects, however, while NautaDutilh is leading on Dutch law.
At A&O, Cranfield's Dutch counterpart Sietze Hepkema says: "We had to analyse our weaknesses and take an honest look in the mirror. It was about building our profile in leveraged finance, getting better contacts in private equity and putting a focus on professionalism."
Last year's hire of private equity partner Derek Baird from Lovells was a start, but there's still some way to go. "It's more complicated than one hire," says Cranfield. "In private equity it's the combined strength of our M&A and leveraged finance."
One common theory for A&O's corporate strength is that the firm has been lucky in conflicts. While it is true that last year it landed an instruction on Alliance Unichem's merger with Boots because Slaughters was already advising the latter, none of the firm's UK top 10 deals this year have arisen out of a conflict. The group has fought hard for work that it has had to pitch for: Alan Paul's team beat Clifford Chance to win an instruction by Macquarie Bank on the £8bn auction of Thames Water because it was willing to offer an exclusivity agreement.
A&O is like Clifford Chance in that it has profited from a frothy M&A market, where highly leveraged deals have been the norm. Banks have held increasing sway in instructions. Cranfield is right in that a firm with a robust leveraged finance practice is advantaged. He admits that, in this instance, having a stellar banking team is beneficial, but adds that just because A&O has a good relationship with one bit of a bank, it doesn't mean another desk will share that view.
Partner Richard Browne says A&O's strength in finance is a selling point in pitches. "But I don't think that, if the market turns down, financing packages will be less important. It plays to our strengths and to those of Clifford Chance," he adds.
Both firms' corporate teams see the strength of their banking teams as a double-edged sword - one that both helps their practices but hogs their limelight.
It has led to tense moments at both firms. But when the financial results are considered, it would seem that's a good problem to have.

Its a HEAVY mother
This review is from: LG USB 2.0 External Super Multi DVD Rewriter Model GE24NU40
Pros: Heavy Duty. sits sideways with heavy rubber strips going around 3 quarters of unit. No mishaps, very reliable. Eject button easy to get to, tray holds Discs very solid. Its got that 2 something (buffering memory) and u cant get one that high anymore except blu rays are 4. So thats a big PRO over other units even the more expensive ones.
Cons: Very Heavy and power unit is also, but that doesnt matter to me, its really a plus.
Other Thoughts: You dont see too many of these that perform lightscribe, I still have the blanks 4 that and its great 4 me, the blanks were a little expensive, but worth it to me. Ive made alot of copies, not 1 problem.

DOES NOT support Lightscribe
This review is from: LG USB 2.0 External Super Multi DVD Rewriter Model GE24NU40
Pros: Reads and writes properly as a plug and play device on a Windows 8 computer.
Cons: Does not support Lightscribe. I was able to install part of the software that was on the CD that came with the drive onto a Windows 7 computer. It allowed me to configure the CD/DVD drive that was connected (the LG external drive being reviewed). It searched and indicated that no Lightscribe drive was found. I also have a much older (2007) version of the "same" drive. Some time ago, I used it as a Lightscribe drive. I tested it in the same way and the software immediately recognized it as a Lightscribe drive.
Other Thoughts: Some of the software that came with it is recognized by Windows 7 but apparently is not recognized by Windows 8. However, the specs. are proper in that they don't indicate that the drive is compatible with W8.

LG USB EXT. CD/DVD Burner
This review is from: LG USB 2.0 External Super Multi DVD Rewriter Model GE24NU40
Pros: Simple direct setup power then USB. Has burned Linux iso'd for me no problem. A good alternative to "Slim-portable" USB drives, that many customers complain about build quality. One pays more and gets more. This drive is a real tray load like a built-in model. Power adapter makes it semi-portable. This can also be a con, see below. The drive feels solid with heft. I did not need a driver even when working on an old linux net-book (remember those?) from 2008. It just works. It does not have that "disposible" feel to it at all.
Cons: size: its not a true portable, and in fact is nearly the size of a netbook/chromebook. Limited-space users may call this a disadvantage when needing high-volume use in cramped desktop environs. For what it is, its expensive compared to an internal equivilent... but then one has to buy a case and 12V power adapter.
Other Thoughts: If you have a netbook, that generally don't include a CD/DVD burner consider this one as a long-term solution. Great for burning iso's, and OS backup. I'm using this on an ASUS Eee-900a with "clogged" SSD. ISO of linux installed on USB-Flash from burned image on CD made from an ASUS Eee 701. That pretty much sums up ability, as these early netbooks were rather notorius and brickable by the OS clogging up the SSD. With the proper use this burner is a good tool to keep older eqip. running with modern OS's.

sk8eycat, funny! Thanks, I like a good cheery night refresher. I can go to sleep laughing.
True, false, or otherwise, I just thought it was worth a giggle.
Loved it, Patricia - thanks for sharing. But I wonder, too good to be true? It could be a hoax written by a prominent atheist chemist. I'm sure there are plenty of those.
Patricia, that chemistry student is going to go far in this world. What a sense of humor!
The following is supposedly an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry mid-term. The answer by one student was so "profound" that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well.
Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)? Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant. One student, however, wrote the following:
First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added. This gives two possibilities: 1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose. 2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over. So which is it? If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, "it will be a cold day in Hell before I go out with you", and take into account the fact that I went out with her last night, then number 2 must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct . . . leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God."
This student received the only "A"

How am I going to get through Christmas? Any help?
Find a Conversation
|Mon, 12-06-2010 - 11:29pm
Can anyone give me any tips? It's been awhile since I've posted on here I think so just a little history up until now. Me: 31, DH: 34. TTC going on 4 years now I think, 5 without BC. I think I've lost count! Found out 2 years ago DH has non-obstructive azoospermia and low T. Have tried HCG injections for a year but still 0 sperm. Insurance will not cover the HCG inj. any longer and we decided not to continue to pay $450/mo for them. Our only option is a biopsy to attempt to have a biological child. Due to cost issues we are going to proceed with IUI with donor sperm in the spring and maybe in a few years try the biopsy and IVF for one together if anything is found. Overall, I think I have held up ok... I still have my moments where I just break down or get angry. So, here is my dilemma with Christmas.... No one in my DH family knows about our fertility issues. DH doesn't want them to know because no one in his family has any fertility problems. We have also elected not to tell them we will have to do donor sperm because they may not be open to it. For Thanksgiving we went to my SIL house. Her BIL and his wife were there with their baby and 3 year old. I saw the baby and had to excuse myself to the bathroom to cry. I tend to do that around babies even though I love them. Well, I made it through Thanksgiving, couldn't have been happier to leave. Christmas is supposed to be at our house. Two days ago my SIL called and asked if her BIL and his wife and kids could come. It totally caught me off guard and I said yes. I felt like if I said no I would seem like this horrible person plus I didn't want to explain why I would be saying no. Now I am in panic mode. I am actually praying to get sick so no one will come over. I was looking forward to Christmas being at my house this year and I know I'm not supposed to turn anyone away on Christmas but now I am dreading it! There is no escaping a baby in my own home, I can't just leave when I've had enough. Honestly, I'm not sure I can handle it. Every year we say we will be pregnant by Christmas and it hasn't happened. What do I do? I know it isn't their fault I turn into a basket case whenever I see a baby or pregnant women. My niece and nephew are older and I can handle older kids, just not babies. Does anyone have any ideas to help me get through this? I don't want to spend the next 3 weeks worrying about it but I know I will. Thanks.
|Tue, 12-07-2010 - 11:10am
Oh Laura,
I'm so sorry to hear the dilemma you're in- you're in a rough spot.
|Tue, 12-07-2010 - 8:23pm
Oh Laura I am sorry you are now faced with this problem. It is so hard around the holidays. My sister and niece are coming down with my parents after Christmas and I know it is going to be hard. Is there anyone who will be at your house around the holidays that know? I know for myself last year when only my sister knew she would help redirect awkward conversations and it was nice to know there was someone else there to distract me from the pain.
I agree maybe you could make an issue over not having enough room. That might work too.
Hopefully you can come up with something and still have a wonderful holiday.
|Wed, 12-08-2010 - 1:19pm
Thanks to both of you for responding! It will all be my DH's family. Both of my parent's are deceased and my brother does know. However, he doesn't like my DH and when I made the mistake of telling him, he told me the infertility meant that God didn't think DH and I were supposed to be together and that is why he is not allowing us to have a baby. For obvious reasons, he is not invited. For the first few years, DH family was always asking us when we were going to have children. SIL kept saying she wanted to be an aunt and MIL started buying baby clothes for some reason. We mentioned in the beginning
|Wed, 12-08-2010 - 1:51pm
I am sorry about your family. It is hard to go through this struggle alone. I have only told my parents and sister and I am dreading seeing my extended family in the new year.
I do not think you have to baby proof your house at all. The people bringing the baby will just need to focus on not letting it get hurt. My sister has an almost one year old and she never ever asks me to do anything different with my house when she comes. She just watches her daughter and makes sure she does not get into anything. If you are concerned about the tree tell your SIL to tell her family you don't have any baby gates to go around the tree. If they are concerned by that then they should bring the gates themselves. My sister never asks me to buy a high chair when she brings her daughter, she knows I would not have it and certainly does not expect me to bring it. I think if they are coming to visit they should bring their own things. You certainly would not be expected to buy them diapers so I do not think you should have to buy a baby gate!

Brandon Marshall, Alshon Jeffery questionable in Week 3
Marshall caught three touchdowns in Week 2 despite not practicing all week, while Jeffery recorded three catches for 47 yards in the game. Both were limited in Saturday's practice.
Vikings sign Charles Johnson off Browns' practice squad
Cowboys waive Lavar Edwards, promote Keith Smith
Raiders looking to get Marcel Reece more involved
"We have to be a little bit aware early in the game of getting him involved early," offensive coordinator Greg Olson said after the team's Week 2 loss to the Texans. "We only had 20 snaps again in the first half. There were things designed to him. ... We had some things there it just didn't end up going there. We'll continue to find ways to utilize Marcel."
Reece signed a three-year contract extension worth more than $11 million last September and owns the second-biggest cap hit of any skill-position player behind backup quarterback Matt Schaub. The Raiders face the Patriots in Week 3.
"He's a real tough matchup," Patriots coach Bill Belichick said. "It's hard to find guys that have his skills that you can put on. You can put faster, quicker guys on him that probably don't have his size and you can put bigger guys on him that probably don't have his speed and quickness. It's a tough matchup. Obviously, we'll be challenged trying to get him covered."
Jaguars waive Craig Loston, promote Kerry Taylor
Taylor will serve as insurance at the wide receiver position with Cecil Shorts and Allen Hurns banged up but expected to play. Loston didn't play in Week 2 after being signed off the practice squad.
Josh McCown has significant sprain, to see specialist Monday
McCown suffered the injury in Thursday night's drubbing at the hands of the Falcons. He's unlikely to play in Week 4 against the Steelers, and if backup Mike Glennon can put together an impressive performance while McCown is out, it's possible the injured quarterback could return to a backup role, despite receiving a vote of confidence from the coaching staff.
Tests on Harry Douglas' foot come back clean
"We've got a couple of days to get some treatment," Smith said. "And we'll have an injury report on Wednesday."
Douglas caught two passes for 14 yards and a touchdown Thursday before coming out of the game with the foot injury. He did not return. The team will update his playing status for Week 4's game against the Vikings next week.
Danny Trevathan returns to practice Friday
"I've just been working as hard as I can," Trevathan said. "I'm not really putting a time on it; I'm just working as much as I can. It just feels good to be out there with my team and just get it moving a little bit."
Trevathan is listed as questionable to play in Week 3 but will likely be de-activated before the game and prepare for a potential return in Week 5 after his team's bye.
Report: Josh McCown to miss 'several weeks' with thumb injury
Marshawn Lynch should be good to go Week 3
Lynch is dealing with a back issue. After sitting out Wednesday, Lynch returned to full practice Thursday and Friday.

So was Adams' snap count a result of coaches punishing Boykin for his drop, or was it a true recognition of Adams' superiority?
Based on last game, Adams is taking Boykin's job as Green Bay's No. 3 receiver, which would put Boykin's Fantasy relevance completely to bed. You've got to figure one of them will be a nice PPR sleeper in a pass-heavy offense that doesn't feature a standout tight end. Deep PPR leaguers would be wise to monitor this situation closely.
The task of replacing
The truth is that Asiata isn't exactly a slug. He's a good pass protector and receiver and can be functional as the
The other back who figures to be involved in the Vikings run game is
I have Peterson in a few leagues. My first move is to get Asiata either off waivers or via trade. The price tag for Asiata shouldn't be much right now but I'd pony up a decent player in exchange for him since we don't know how long the Vikings will need him as their main back. McKinnon isn't considered as vital and is unlikely at this point to be a major player for Minnesota.
Asiata is also a must-add even if you don't have Peterson. That's because he'll be the Vikings starter on Sunday and could stay in that role for a while. What's happening with Adrian Peterson off the field is irrelevant to Fantasy owners. What matters to us is that he's not going to play in Week 2, and judging how swiftly the Vikings made their decision to deactivate him on Friday, there's no guarantee he'll be back in action for Week 3, either. There's a lot to be uncertain about.

Eagles TE
You know the saying. One man's trash is another man's Zac Stacy.
Of course not every free agent flier is that successful, but there's a lesson to be learned about playing the Waiver Wire: Sometimes it pays to go against the grain, and sometimes it hurts really bad when you overreact.
Let's preface this post by saying that as recent as last season, Week 1 hasn't been kind to rookie running backs. Eddie Lacy only averaged 2.93 yards per carry in Week 1 of 2013. Giovani Bernard got just four carries, and the aforementioned Stacy only received one. But it's safe to say anyone who dropped one of those three after Week 1 ended up regretting it. With that said, let's look at which rookie runners got dropped after a slow start this season.
The rookie running back pile
First-year Falcon Devonta Freeman headlines this group, as one of CBSSports.com's most dropped players (down eight percent to 70-percent owned). I don't blame anyone for doing so. That Atlanta backfield looks deep and useful for winning football games, which makes for an awful Fantasy situation. Atlanta used four backs in its win over New Orleans, and Freeman only totalled four touches on the day.
Those that dropped him probably did it to pick up someone that fills an immediate need. Freeman looks like the kind of tough, physical runner who would benefit from a possible (perhaps eventual)

Last week we gave you six FanDuel bargains for Week 1. These were players you could get cheaply so you could fill the rest of your lineup with stars. Here's how we fared with our picks and the Week 2 outlook for each:
Get ready for a mess.
In a review of the Ravens' Week 1 game vs. the Bengals, the team used a definite rotation between
Pierce looked fine as a physical between-the-tackles runner despite his pre-fumble rushing average. Nothing spectacular but certainly a physical back willing to take on contact and fight for an extra yard. Then he was stripped of the football by
Forsett saw most of the work thereafter. He's also nothing spectacular but does have a proven track record of being a capable pass catcher (caught 97 passes for a modest 7.3 yard average over three seasons with the Seahawks). In this particular game he caught five passes but couldn't do much with it (14 yards). But because of the fumble by Pierce, he played 57 of 88 snaps and showed off enough dash as a running back with 70 yards on 11 carries.
The hunch here is that Pierce's first-ever fumble won't cost him a chance to work as the running-downs back for the Ravens. Not after they cut Ray Rice. We might expect to see him play in that run-downs role Thursday against the Steelerson CBS. Forsett should take over in passing downs and potentially the two-minute offense since he's adept enough at pass protection.
Fantasy owners shouldn't be thrilled with either guy because they'll swipe work away from each other. Pierce could score more, Forsett could catch more. It's a tag-team delight on par with the Raiders and Titans. Worse yet, Pierce's physical style contributed to his shoulder woes last season and he could be considered a slight injury risk. Forsett has also missed time over his career.
The wild card and potential long-term X-factor is the Ravens rookie,
The bottom line is that the Ravens have a bunch of guys who will take on specific roles and aren't guaranteed to come close to regular must-start Fantasy choices.
Pierce is unowned in 24 percent of CBSSports.com leagues. That number will look like 10-something by Wednesday because someone in every league will take him -- and rightfully so since he has the most appeal.
Forsett is unowned in 100 percent of CBSSports.com leagues. Those who had Rice on their rosters should make a bee-line for Forsett, if only as a short-term band-aid. Whether you have Pierce or not, use your first waiver claim. If you have FAAB dollars, spend around 30 percent of your budget if you don't have Pierce and maybe 15 percent if you do.
That's because smart Fantasy owners who don't have a horse in the Ravens backfield shouldn't race to waivers or spend big FAAB bucks on Forsett (Pierce is a different story). He's not a bad pickup but there might be some better choices such as
Taliaferro is worth keeping an eye on and potentially adding in leagues with very deep rosters (18-plus spots). The worse Pierce plays, the more likely Taliaferro will get an opportunity down the line. And for whatever it's worth, Taliaferro is the only back on the roster drafted by the current Ravens offensive brain trust. Also, Gary Kubiak has a good track record of making his run game work with unknowns (he unearthed Steve Slaton and
