As I've mentioned here before, I have a fitness goal: my Fighting Fit Challenge.
I was hoping to announce today that I'd reached Stage 1 of that goal: to pass the US Navy's Physical Readiness Test for a man my age, which will soon be 44. (Disclaimer as always: I'm just using this as a standard, I'm not actually planning to join any military force anywhere.)
I kind of passed and I kind of didn't.
What I mean is that there are two passing levels. To get into the US Navy you need an average score of 60 (there are charts for each age-group to calculate the score), but to pass the test once you're already in, you only need an average of 50.
My score was 58. And, of course, being me, I was shooting for the higher number.
I have to say, when I came back from my run having missed the goal I was disappointed in myself. But, as Oscar Wilde put it, experience is what you get when you don't get what you want. (Except in roleplaying games, where experience is what you get when you kill things and take their stuff. But I digress.)
When I sat down and calculated it out, it's not a big miss. Either a 3% improvement in my running time for the 1.5 miles or another 7 pushups would do it.
I know I can do that. I've done that many pushups before, in fact, and 3% isn't much – especially when you consider that just a couple of weeks ago I couldn't run a mile and a half at all, let alone in 15:10. Compared to where I was even three months ago, I'm doing great.
So I'm on track for my challenge, and I know how to improve in order to achieve it.
In fact, what I mainly want to talk about today is that in the process of working towards my fitness goals, I've figured out some things about achieving goals in general.
The ins and outs of motivation
My wife thinks I'm very internally motivated because I do so much personal development work on myself.
I'm actually just stubborn and rebellious. I don't want an external force making my decisions for me. I'd rather pick my own path.
But what I've found is that once I've picked my path, I can get along it much further, much faster and much more readily if I have some kind of external motivator. Because I'm lazy, too.
Some of my best personal development changes have come from night classes, and I know exactly why this is. It's not because of the quality of the teaching, necessarily (that's varied widely). It's because I've had a specific time set aside, a place that I have to go to, and people expecting me to turn up there to work on whatever it is together.
That gives me enough structure to stick with it and make progress.
At the end of last year, I finished a Certificate in Health Science through Massey University. Massey started out as an agricultural university, and they've been offering courses by correspondence for decades so that farmers could upgrade their knowledge without leaving the farm. That meant I could study in my own time while still working one and a half jobs.
Doing the course not only got me access to resources I wouldn't have got hold of otherwise, it also got me to study them. I had grand plans this year that, just as I had studied my Massey material at lunchtime, so I would read and study some of the nonfiction books in my "to read" stack at lunchtime.
I've read exactly one. Without the external motivator of submitting assignments and doing exams – two things I find tedious and unpleasant – I haven't kept it going.
Tracking works
While night classes and such are great, they're not essential for me. What I do need, though, is something that's telling me to push through and do it when it gets hard, even if it's to meet an arbitrary goal that I've set myself.
On simple goals like keeping up a few minutes of daily meditation, I've found that I can use the Seinfeld Chain Method. The comedian Jerry Seinfeld (the real one, not the TV character of the same name and occupation who was played by him) motivates himself to write each day by marking a calendar with an X each day that he writes. Not wanting to "break the chain" gives just enough motivation to get him to keep doing it.
For harder stuff like exercise, I need to use more complex trackers. I have an iPod Touch (basically an iPhone without the phone), which makes it simple – there's an app for almost everything. Nothing I track couldn't be tracked with paper and pencil and a stopwatch, but the apps make it easier. (Links to all the apps I mention below are on the nifty new resources page.)

App is short for application…
My Navy fitness goal involves three exercises: situps, pushups and running.
I already went through the Two Hundred Situps and Hundred Pushups programs. I used a printed tracker for Two Hundred Situps and an app for Hundred Pushups. But when I started training for the Navy PRT it had been a little while since I did those, and I needed to build up again.
The basic way both programs work is by giving you five sets of repetitions of varying, but gradually increasing number, three times a week, with periodic tests of how many repetitions you can do without stopping. I thought I could carry on doing that for myself, but found that my progress was a bit slow, so I bought an app called Infinity Reps. It does basically the same thing as the two other programs, but keeps on going up indefinitely.
It's not as well-designed as the other two – it doesn't show you good form for the exercises, and it took me a little while to figure out how to work it, as it's not immediately clear where you tap to start the exercises or what all the settings mean.
But what it does do is push me more than I would push myself.
One morning, for example, I was feeling a bit tired. The last set was 30 pushups, and I didn't think I could do that many. I did, though – because I was going for an external goal. If I'd been setting my own target I would have stopped much, much sooner.
Same with the running. I wasn't making much progress because I was running when I felt like it, or more accurately when I knew that if I didn't run I was going to slip backwards rather than progressing. I wasn't following a plan, I was just running until I really felt like stopping.
Well, now that I'm using the Couch to 5K app to tell me how to train, it turns out the the point where I really feel like stopping comes a while before the point where I actually have to stop. A friend of mine often quotes the wise words of his grandmother: "There's a lot you can do when you're tired."
Couch to 5k works by starting you out alternating running and walking, and gradually increasing the running and reducing the walking until you're running all the time. About the second time I used it, I was labouring up a hill and really wanted to drop from a run into a walk. But I was partway through a 3-minute running interval. I had 40 seconds to go – I knew this, because the app was showing me. The nice British woman's voice hadn't told me to switch to walking yet. So I thought, "I can do another 40 seconds."
Using the app is just enough of a commitment that, like Jerry Seinfeld not breaking the chain, I carry on and do something hard because I've made a (completely arbitrary and voluntary) commitment to do so. Even though there are no consequences from not doing it – apart from disappointment with myself for not following through.
The thing about exercise is that if you're doing it right, it's always going to be challenging. You're always going to want to stop, because it doesn't actually feel good until afterwards (at least, not for me, most of the time, so far). Afterwards, it feels great – I'm fitter than I've probably ever been at the moment, and I feel alive like I never have before. But while you're doing it you keep wanting to stop.
Adding in that little extra motivator is enough to keep me going.
Work on the work
Here's the other thing I've learned. When you're not getting the outcome you want, pay attention to the process.
My shorthand version of that insight is "work on the work".
We don't like process. We like outcome. It's like Mark Twain's remark on the definition of a classic – it's a book everyone wants to have read but nobody wants to read. But it's paying attention to the process, working on the work, that creates the outcome we want.
I wasn't getting the improvement I wanted in running, so I worked on the work. Now I can run a mile and a half, where I couldn't before.
As a Hero Trainer, what I do is work with you on the work so you can get the outcome you've been missing out on. And I provide that external motivator and structure, as well.
So if your life is less amazing than you want it to be, get some hero training.

Games At Work
Michael Rowe, Michael Martine
Description: Play games with us!
Now Playing
Episode 37 – Sticky Games
While the snow is falling in Budapest, and the freezing rain is falling in North Carolina, the team gets together to play a few games of games – duh-duh! We also follow-up on our discussion from last week on game stickiness for business, and how the stickiness factor impacts productivity. We also play a bit of buzz word bingo, with big data, mobile, and gameification. We also help Phaedra get setup with a new microphone, while fighting thru some technical difficulties. We look for the magic algorithm to make games sticky. We ask our listeners to give examples of games they are working on and what makes them more sticky. Is it just telekinesis tattoos?

With its memorable music and characters, The Lion King takes on big questions in a sweet, gentle way.
The movie works on many levels. It's visually rich with a sweet storyline of parental devotion and Simba's growth from newborn to rebellious adolescent to full-grown king. Along the way, it isn't afraid to take on issues of life and death, but in a gentle and spiritual way.
Kids Will Like:
Kids love talking animals and the ones here have a range of endearing personalities as vast as the Pride Lands themselves. Young Simba is particularly cute and frisky. (He's downright adorable in the scene where he can't wait to go exploring with his dad, King Mufasa, and wakes him up like any excited young kid would, saying, "Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad…") And Timon and Pumbaa, the meerkat and warthog odd couple, offer great support and unconditional friendship to Simba. They're lovable comic characters who bring their "no worries" philosophy to the proceedings.
Parents Will Like:
The movie tells the story of Simba's coming of age, and ultimately, with Simba ascension to the throne, there's a happy ending. The relationships between Simba's parents, Mufasa and Sarabi, is sweet and utterly respectful, as is the lifelong friendship between Simba and Nala. There are little inside jokes, like when the evil Scar, who's taken over the throne after Mufasa is killed, demands that Zazu amuse him by singing. Zazu defiantly breaks into "It's a Small World." And there's tons of clever dialogue, such as when Zazu warns Scar that Mufasa is "as mad as a hippo with a hernia!"
Heads Up:
Scar, Mufasa's brother and Simba's uncle, is just plain devious and mean, and young Simba is too sweet and innocent to realize it. Scar orchestrates the massive wildebeest stampede that puts Mufasa in a precarious situation and then lets him fall to his death. It's heartbreaking to see Simba discover the lifeless body of his father, all made even more dramatic when Scar convinces Simba that it was all his fault. Simba believes him at the time, but ultimately turns the tables on his evil uncle late in the film. The "circle of life," which is an important theme here, approaches life and death with sensitivity.
Own It?
Yes! This is a landmark movie, not just for Disney but for the art of animation, and the story about strength, courage, and "the circle of life" is timeless.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
During leveling, I feel that keeping slice and dice up all the time, really helps me kill an enemy faster due to improved white damage. I hit slice and dice the moment I get my first combo point and renew it when it finishes, keeping no account of combo points. It's a bit wasteful but seems much faster than stocking points up for eviscerate.

BARABOO (WKOW) -- Drew Nachreiner can often be seen cruising the streets of Baraboo in his motorized wheelchair.
Drew, 16, has cerebral palsy and relies on the chair to get around on his own.
Drew's current wheelchair is new. It was donated to him by Home Health United after his former set of wheels was totaled in a car wreck.
Drew was hit by a vehicle crossing a street more than three months ago. He wasn't seriously hurt but the chair was totaled. That left him reliant on family members to take him places using a manual, push wheelchair.
"It's just so much nicer now that I don't have to wait on everybody else to take me places," Drew said.
"I can just grab my cell phone and go," he added.
Drew uses his new chair to drive to the Boys & Girls Club in Baraboo, where he volunteers Monday-Friday for roughly 20 hours each week.
"I hang out with the kids and play games with them and stuff," Drew said. "I just talk to them, and just normal kids' stuff. You kind of have to put yourself in their shoes."
The new wheelchair also helps Drew better interact with the kids during activities like kickball.
"I can chase all the kids around and play with them," Drew said, adding that would not have been possible in the manually-powered chair.
Karen DeSanto, the Executive Director of the Boys and Girls Clubs of West Central Wisconsin, said she's very grateful to have Drew volunteering.
"The kids love him. He's one of these great mentors, and he has all the things I would want every 16 or 17-year old kid to have," she said.
She said Drew is funny, kind and caring.
"He talks to (the kids)," DeSanto said. "Often, the kids just want somebody to talk to and they just need somebody to listen."
DeSanto said Drew volunteered at the Boys & Girls Club last summer but was too young to be hired as an employee. This year, she hired him through a Reedsburg agency that pairs up employers with people looking for work through the Wisconsin Promise Program.
"We look at Drew and we immediately see his chair," DeSanto said.
"But that's a bonus to have him in the chair because the kids respond to it... It opens conversation with the kids asking 'why? how? what?'" DeSanto said. "Then Drew is himself. He's funny and he's nice and he's all these things that make him no different than anybody else."
"It gives the kids a perspective of a great person," she said.
Drew and Karen have also worked together to establish the Drew Nachreiner Endowment Fund at the Boys & Girls Club.
DeSanto said donations towards a new chair for Drew poured in following his accident. But since Home Health United donated the chair, Drew requested that the money be instead put towards the Boys & Girls Club. That led to the establishment of the endowment fund.
DeSanto said the fund currently contains roughly $3,700. The money will be used for scholarships for club members, as well as to fund the club's Strategic Academic Success Initiative. DeSanto said membership at the Boys & Girls Club costs $24 annually. But she added each child tends to cost the club roughly $500 a year.
Drew will be a high school junior this fall. In addition to working, he said he also enjoys playing video games and doing other typical, teenager activities.
"Can I give her a shout out?" Drew asked during our interview.
"Hi Katie, if you're reading this. You're the best," he said with a smile.

Nature's Inspiring Stories
Nature springs to life in Nature Conservancy magazine. Read
There's no battle like a picnic battle!
Come see renowned chefs Bun Lai, of Miya's Sushi, and Avi Szapiro, of the newly opened ROIA, when they square off for The Nature Conservancy's Picnic for Earth after the Rock to Rock Earth Day bike ride April 20 in New Haven.
At the Rock to Rock finish line in East Rock Park at about1 p.m., the two chefs will engage in the second annual "Picnic Battle for Earth, " a light-hearted, friendly contest to craft the most delicious and sustainable picnic dish.
James Beard Foundation Award–nominated Chef Bun will be defending his hard-earned title from last year's picnic battle, and he and Chef Avi—who apprenticed under European Michelin star chefs—will be working with a palette of ingredients chosen by Facebook friends of The Nature Conservancy in Connecticut and donated by Elm City Market. To help decide which ingredients these chefs use, go to http://www.facebook.com/CT.NatureConservancy! Polling starts Friday (April 12.)
Radio broadcaster Bruce Barber, creator of "The Real Life Survival Guide," a public radio show heard on WNPR, will emcee this picnic throw-down.
Picnic battle judges include Daniel C. Esty, commissioner of the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection; Cristina Chang Bryant, co-owner and chef at Sweetpea Real Foods to Go in Cheshire, Conn.; and Martin Torresquintero, outdoor adventures coordinator for the New Haven Department of Parks, Recreation and Trees.
About 1,000 riders are expected to join Rock to Rock, which benefits organizations that are working to create a greener, healthier New Haven community.
Along with the picnic, the Conservancy is fielding a team of rider-fundraisers at Rock to Rock. Conservancy Trustee Todd Miranowski has generously offered to match, dollar for dollar, the total amount of donations made to "Team Nature Conservancy Rocks!" up to $10,000.
"This is great fun for an even greater cause," said Frogard Ryan, executive director of The Nature Conservancy in Connecticut. "The Nature Conservancy is so grateful to Todd, Bun, Avi, our wonderful judges and emcee, and everyone who's helped make Rock to Rock and Chef to Chef possible. Gentlemen: Get ready to do battle—picnic battle!"
Picnic for Earth is part of The Nature Conservancy's All Hands on Earth campaign, the first-ever sustainable global campaign designed to deeply engage people across the world in a conversation about today's urgent environmental challenges. This movement of millions was built to support The Nature Conservancy's efforts to save land and water resources by asking people the question: What will you do for Earth?
The Nature Conservancy launched Picnic for Earth in 2011. Last year, picnics were held in more than 50 countries.
The Nature Conservancy is a leading conservation organization working around the world to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends. The Conservancy and its more than 1 million members have protected nearly 120 million acres worldwide. Visit The Nature Conservancy on the Web at www.nature.org

The buried lede – at least as far as this state is concerned – in the new housing report by RealtyTrac:
Georgia leapfrogged past Arizona, Florida, California and Nevada to post the nation's highest state foreclosure rate in May, the first time since February 2006 that Georgia's foreclosure rate has ranked highest among the states.
Banks have opened foreclosure actions on one in every 300 homes here. If you're looking for impact, cast your eyes no further than the DeKalb County school board, which is still struggling with plummeting property taxes. More context from the Associated Press:
LOS ANGELES — Lenders initiated foreclosure proceedings against more U.S. homeowners in May, setting the stage for increases in home repossessions and short sales – scenarios that could further weigh down home values in coming months.
Default or scheduled-home-auction notices were filed for the first time against 109,051 homes last month. That's an increase of 12 percent from April

I sat down with Scott at Under the Radar to talk about trends in media. Scott is the founding principle of the Management Innovation Group in SF. Scott has a fresh view on the recent shift toward social media and its' implications for businesses. Scott and I had a great chat. We agreed too much on things. He's a real professional in this area of social media.
Mangement Innovation Group, MIG, is a consulting firm focused on helping companies find new ways to successfully grow and operate their businesses. To us, that means not only finding new product potentials, but also helping our clients learn new ways of managing their companies. We believe that successful innovators work simultaneously to improve their products, process, and culture.
We have learned from our clients that often the primary barrier to innovation is not a lack of ideas, but rather the organizational inertia that makes it difficult to execute them…and that this disconnect between corporate vision and project execution is very costly to the business.
Scott Hirsch
A leading authority on innovation valuation and process development, Scott's passion is helping companies realize their creative potential at all levels of the organization. His management philosophy is based on empowering people — experience he acquired during six years as a social entrepreneur designing innovative youth service programs.
Immediately prior to founding MIG, Scott launched the business strategy and valuation practice at Adaptive Path, the premier user experience consulting firm. He has helped clients in a variety of industries — including Network Associates, Blogger, PlanetOut, Hitachi Data Systems, and Dow Corning — gain a deeper understanding of their markets and technology and more successfully leverage their strategic investments.
An avid inquisitive, Scott was lead researcher and principal author of "Leveraging Business Value: How ROI Changes User Experience," an in-depth study of how five global companies financially value their design investments, done in collaboration his alma mater, the Haas School of Business at UC Berkeley, from which he received his MBA. He lives in San Francisco, CA but has a vivid mental map of ancient Greece.
Yup, I worked with Scott while at Hitachi. He's really talented, insightful and was a wonderful consultant.

Food & Recipes
Chocolate -- and Your Health
Q: Is there much difference between chocolate bar brands?
A: The principal ingredient of commercial chocolate bars and candy is not cocoa, but sugar, along with saturated vegetable fat and powdered milk. This has gained chocolate a reputation as fattening, tooth-decaying junk food. However, true chocolate -- manufactured from natural ingredients -- is far healthier and contains higher percentages of cocoa solids and lower percentages of sugar.
Q: Are there any health benefits associated with eating chocolate besides
enjoying the taste or satisfying a craving?
A: A University of California, Davis, researcher has spent several years studying the possible health benefits of certain antioxidants found in chocolate. These antioxidants --phenolic compounds, also known as flavonoids -- are the same compounds found in red wine that give it antioxidant properties. Phenolics can help protect against or slow heart disease by preventing fat-like substances (LDL, or low-density lipoproteins) in the bloodstream from oxidizing and forming plaque that can eventually block arteries. Although chocolate also contains the saturated fatty acid called stearic acid, it has been shown in scientific studies to have a neutral effect on blood cholesterol. One study conducted at Pennsylvania State University with healthy, young, adult male students showed that eating one standard-sized milk chocolate bar a day did not affect blood cholesterol.

By MensXP | February 17, 2014, 6:00 am IST Relationships
Some say it's the size of your shaft that makes her drool for one more hump session, some reckon it's the foreplay and some even say nothing beats the missionary. Well, there is no doubt it's a Spartan task to appease women in bed. If they don't like it with you, don't even bother asking again, you just might get to know your horse's power, and you might not be a happy man ever after!
But there is always that one guy she wants to have sex with again and again, and this is how you become the chosen one or at least get within the sniffing distance of being the Jack.

The Rabbi Who Hated Lies
David Hartman, my late study partner, wanted to be a great rabbi. He ended up in a war for Judaism's future.
When he was a yeshiva boy growing up in a poor Hasidic family in the Orthodox enclave of Brownsville, Brooklyn, David Hartman's consuming spiritual objective was to limit, to the greatest extent possible, the amount of time he spent on anything other than Torah study. His singular dream was to someday join the company of the rabbis he so revered as one of his generation's leading interpreters of the sacred Jewish canon.
But fate—a deterministic concept at which Hartman, a Maimonides scholar who rose to become one of his generation's greatest Jewish philosophers, would certainly have scoffed—had other things in mind. His powerful drive to take a role of intellectual leadership among his people remained, but it was channeled into areas like Zionism, pluralism, and ecumenism that were at best foreign concepts, and at worst four-letter words, within the environment of his upbringing. Ultimately, he would go on to smash the idols of his youth while remaining both deeply affectionate—and perpetually enraged—toward ultra-Orthodoxy.
"I was a good yeshiva boy," he often said, "until I started to read."
Hartman, who died Sunday morning after a long illness at age 81, came to be regarded as one of the preeminent rabbis and theologians of our time. In the aftermath of the Six Day War, he moved to Israel and built a world-renowned institute named for his father that would teach the value of religious pluralism to thousands, bringing rabbis, priests, and imams (and perhaps more impressively, Orthodox, Conservative, and Reform rabbis) into dialogue with one another. Almost single-handedly, he cleared out a space for a new type of Jewish conversation—one in which the greatest philosophical minds grappled with our traditions—and in the process created a new range of possibilities for how to be Jewish. As he inspired multiple generations of Jewish leaders with the combination of his scholarship and fiercely independent thinking, he perhaps unsurprisingly garnered the condemnation of the Orthodox establishment, who accused him of rebellion and heresy.
In the past few days, Hartman has been remembered for his dynamic classes, his embrace of religious pluralism, his Maimonidean openness, and his vision of Zionism as creating the possibility for a cultural and moral renaissance in the context of a sovereign Jewish state. But I will remember Hartman—whom I had the privilege of working with closely for the last three years of his life—as the person who gave me, a lost yeshiva boy from a very different world than the one he came from, the tools to build a rich, dignified Jewish identity for myself.
When I came to work with Hartman three and a half years ago, he was approaching 80 and in the process of transitioning out of a hands-on leadership role as president of the Shalom Hartman Institute, the research and teaching institute he founded in 1976. The institute, with its centrally located Jerusalem campus and its reputation for confronting the intersection between tradition and modernity, was a fixture in the city. I had known it by sight, and reputation, for years. But for most of those years, I myself had been a good Orthodox yeshiva student, and the institute was too liberal for me. So, I'd kept my distance.
Hartman was still delivering his weekly lecture series to a packed house, but he was in the midst of turning over the institutional torch to his son. And after a five-decade-long career in which he had published eight books, he still had a few more things he urgently wanted to get down in print.
I was also in the midst of a professional transition. I had recently stepped down as the rabbi of an Orthodox synagogue in the East Village. More existentially, though, I had stepped down from being an Orthodox Jew. After eight years spent immersed in the day-night Torah study routine of the yeshiva—a time during which I accepted a high degree of social and intellectual insularity in trade for the possibility of sustained, intensive focus on spiritual growth—I'd gone out into the world of institutional Orthodoxy and found that it bore little resemblance to the Judaism that had nurtured me and that I'd been ordained to teach and share. If Hartman was a good yeshiva boy until he started to read, I was one until I became a rabbi.
For the first time in nearly two decades, I was searching—not only for a new career, but for a new language to describe what it was about Orthodoxy that had ultimately disappointed me and for the right concepts and categories to help me understand the possibilities for what kind of Jew I wanted to be. Through a professional connection, I was approached about working with David as his editor, which would also involve moving to Jerusalem and being his hevruta, or study partner. The job description was that Hartman would bring out books—whether the Talmud, Maimonides, Eric Fromm, or William James—we'd read passages together, and he'd talk out his ideas. I would listen, ask questions, challenge him, and offer alternative ways of formulating things.
"I hope you'll come, and come quickly," he said over the phone in 2009, urging me to accept the job with his signature combination of charm, impatience, and Jewish guilt. "We've got a lot of important work to do together, and I'm not sure how long I have left."
Three or four days a week I would go over to his apartment on Miriam the Prophetess Street, and we would sit in his office and read and discuss. I would take notes on my laptop, and sometimes, when he got on a roll, I would transcribe what he said more or less verbatim, sometimes for hours on end.

I love dried radish.
Although, it tends to have unpleasant smell when opening a bag *o*)...but the taste of radish when cooked is really good.
I have been looking for Korean dried radish (sliced) at bargain price since I want to buy in bulk (wholesale would be even better) to stock up since my family, my friends, and I do eat them a lot....I mean a LOT. We practically eat them like every meal like banchan.
So, buying them individually is costly. I realize that they are just so expensive...
Maangchi, do you happen to know where I could find them? Also, any suggestions on the brand?

FS Lineup Card: July 22-28
What's on deck?
Published: Jul 21, 2012
» Get updates via Sportsmail
Here's a look at what to expect from the Fantasy Source this week:
Sunday, July 22: First Pitch. Fantasy Source subscribers should be sure to check out First Pitch every weekday morning by 9 a.m. ET and every Saturday and Sunday by 10 a.m. ET. You'll get a look back at the most notable performances from the day before in our 3 Up, 3 Down section, then a look ahead to the upcoming day with splits to exploit, weather watch and a ranking of every SP. Make First Pitch part of your daily fantasy baseball routine.
Monday, July 23: Pickup Lines. Sample nugget from last week: "It's hard to make trades when both owners are fixated on one guy. Sometimes it's best to wait a week and start over, but it's also OK to hold the line. That's where I'm at with [Adrian] Gonzalez and [Tim] Lincecum. I don't want someone else to get their potential bounce-back production in the second half."
Tuesday, July 24: Deep Thoughts. Sample nugget: "The [trade targets] that jump out the most are [Carlos] Quentin and [Chase] Headley, who could do wonders for their fantasy value simply by escaping the distant fences of Petco Park. It's curious to note that [Justin] Upton's steals have all come on the road, although it's hard to concoct a sound theory as to why that might be. (Maybe he doesn't like the footing on the Chase Field dirt?)."
Tuesday, July 24: Podcast. Have a listen as two Fantasy Experts join David A. Arnott to talk about the latest fantasy baseball topics. It's free for all, so check out our podcast page and enjoy.
Wednesday, July 25: Hit and Run. Sample nugget: "Roto Rater says [Ben] Revere is the No. 47 outfielder on the season with a 4.61 value and No. 37 (1.65) in the past month. However, with just 24-percent ownership, Revere's 19 steals apparently don't outweigh the zero homers in owners' minds. With a .316 average and 27 runs in 56 games, though, Revere does enough Roto damage to make up for his power deficiency."
Thursday, July 26: Inside Pitch. Sample nugget: "Jordan Zimmermann is as consistent as just about any starter in the league. All but two of his outings this year have qualified as quality starts, and he's allowed fewer than two earned runs in 11 of his 19 starts. His K-rate (6.18) is still disappointing, but his overall stats (2.35/1.09) actually compare very favorably to Jered Weaver (2.26/0.95, 6.68 K/9 ratio), whom many would consider a fantasy ace. One of the differences in perceived value is undoubtedly Weaver's 11-1 record and Zimmermann's 7-6 mark."
Thursday, July 26: Two-Start Pitcher post. Fantasy Source members can get an early jump on their competition with this breakdown of two-start SPs for the following week. Based on matchups, splits and trends, we put each hurler into one of four categories: Must-Start, Double Play, One-and-Done and No Thanks. Check back on Sunday for a free update of this post.
Thursday, July 26: Video. Get your five-minute fantasy fix in video form every Thursday, as a Fantasy Source writer joins Cinesport to talk about a pressing Roto topic. Our videos can be found in the MLB Video section of the Sporting News site.
Friday, July 27: Week Ahead. Sample nugget: "Give Todd Frazier (.293/.339/.552 vs. LHP this season), Devin Mesoraco (.306/.342/.472) and Stubbs (.282/.329/.507) a boost when the Reds face three lefties in six games next week. ... Torii Hunter (.316/.388/.434) and Howie Kendrick (.302/.343/.417) should benefit when the Angels face three lefties in six games next week."
Friday, July 27: Rankings updates. The rankings for every position get a makeover for the upcoming week, with changes based on hot/cold streaks, matchups, home/away games and more. The SP rankings are particularly helpful for owners in weekly leagues.
In addition to all this, we'll be putting out Fastball posts and offering up a free morning newsletter every weekday. And, of course, we'll also be Tweeting out updates and posting on our Facebook page. Please join us, and let us help you win your league!

Anyone who knows me knows I like cats. But not as much as this dude. No one could like cats as much as Denis Avner, who was known as "Cat Man" for the rather obvious reason that he had numerous plastic surgeries to make himself look, well, like a cat. Specifically, a tiger. In fact, his tattoos, piercings, and cosmetic surgeries were so plentiful that he earned a world record for body modifications. But if reports are true, no amount of changing his exterior could save his interior -- he reportedly may have committed suicide.
Avner also went by his Native American name, "Stalking Cat." If you look at pictures of him, you will be truly startled. In his face is little left of a human being as we recognize it. His eyes are slanted like a cat's and he wears colored contacts. His cheeks bulge out. His teeth are sawed and carved to feline perfection. He had piercings put in for whiskers. He's tattooed with the stripes of a tiger. I can only imagine that wherever he went, he was greeted with stares, gasps, and finger pointing. Which must be what he wanted, considering his physical appearance took a lot of effort.
According to Wikipedia, Avner's "totem" was a tiger and he began his face modifications in an effort to "follow the ways of the tiger." He also reportedly dedicated himself to "exploring the species line as much as possible," said a friend. And apparently in Native American tradition, it's not that unusual to try to look like your spiritual inspiration. But I'd guess that even Native Americans would say that Avner went pretty damn far in his spiritual quest. In fact, if becoming one with your totem is any guarantee of emotional fulfillment, then Avner should have been the happiest man on the planet -- clearly not the case if he took his own life.
There may be a story here that I'm not aware of. Perhaps Avner was sick. Perhaps taking his life was just another way of showing devotion to his "cat ways." (Don't they have nine lives?) I don't know. But I tend to believe that anyone who alters their outside to a huge extent is really trying to alter their inside -- and it doesn't work. It must be a sad shock for people who get a physical "ideal" in their minds and work very hard to achieve it -- only to find that they still feel like the same person.
Rest in peace, Cat Man.
What do you think of this man's surgeries? Here he talks about them in this video.
Image via DiagonalView/YouTube
This man has been featured in many films about piercings and taboo body rituals... I was rather fond of him by listening to his passion for what he chose to do with his life. Do I find it odd? Yes, but who am I to judge... not my place- just as it isn't yours.
We may not agree with what he chose to do... but we can respect him for trying. The nine lives joke was in poor taste, imo.
I have to agree with the above comments. This man was obviously mentally ill. Fortunately no one has ever come to me for such extreme surgeries. I would refuse to perform them.

College basketball: Picking a men's favorite? Good luckBy JOHN MARSHALL
THe Associated Press | February 09,2013Indiana climbed its way to No. 1 this week, back where it started the season.
Fitting with the way this season has gone, the Hoosiers aren't likely to be there long after losing on a buzzer beater to Illinois on Thursday night.
So far in this season of parity, No. 1 is no fun. Get to the top — or even close to it — and chances are a letdown is coming.
Since Indiana and Duke dominated No. 1 the first 10 weeks of the season, it's been a jumble at the top with five different teams up there the past five weeks, a streak that will almost certainly stretch to six.
So as the regular season winds down into its final month, who are the title contenders? Well, good question. At this point, any team in the Top 25 or even just out of it might have a chance.
Indiana. The Hoosiers are the current No. 1, so might as well start there. Indiana is tough, talented and has one of the best players in the country in big man Cody Zeller. The Hoosiers (20-3) are 8-2 in the rugged Big Ten, but have had some tough losses. They lost to Butler in December when a 5-foot-11 walk-on hit a floater in the closing seconds of overtime and couldn't crack 60 points in a loss to unranked Wisconsin last month. Indiana had been on a roll beating then-No. 13 Michigan State and top-ranked Michigan last week, but took a big stumble by losing to the unranked Illini. The Hoosiers also face some tough games down the stretch, including two against No. 10 Ohio State and both Michigan schools again.
Florida. The Gators are No. 2 this week, but also figure to fall a few spots after a looks-bad-on-the-resume loss to Arkansas on Tuesday. Florida has one of the nation's most dynamic backcourts in Kenny Boynton, Mike Rosario and Scottie Wilbekin and a multidimensional front line anchored by powerful Patric Young. The Gators have dominated most games, but allowed Arizona to score seven points in the final 56 seconds in a one-point loss in December and struggled at both ends in a loss to Kansas State a week later. Florida got on a roll after that, winning 10 straight games, but had a huge letdown in the loss to the Razorbacks. Still, 18-3 and with a lineup like that, they figure to make a decent run in the NCAA tournament.
Michigan. The Wolverines might have the nation's best starting backcourt in Trey Burke and Tim Hardaway Jr. and have arguably been college basketball's most consistent team. Michigan opened at the No. 5 in the preseason poll and has remained in the top-5, moving into the top spot the week of Jan. 28. The Wolverines only lasted a week at No. 1 thanks to a loss, but that was to Indiana, ranked No. 3 at the time. The Wolverines' only other loss was on the road to Ohio State, which they avenged with an overtime win at home on Tuesday in one of the season's best games. Still, the Big Ten is tough this season and Michigan still has to face Michigan State and Indiana, not to mention go through the grind of the conference tournament.
Duke: The Blue Devils have one of the nation's best players in Mason Plumlee and a guard in Seth Curry who can score in bunches. The problem for Duke has been injuries and occasional lapses on defense. A foot injury for big man Ryan Kelly was a big loss. The multidimensional power forward has been out since injuring his right foot in early January and the Blue Devils struggled the first few games without him. One of those struggles came after Duke climbed to No. 1 again on Jan. 21, a 90-63 loss to unranked Miami that was the third-worst by a No. 1 team ever. Still, the Blue Devils (19-2) spent four weeks at No. 1 before Kelly got hurt and will be a formidable team when he returns.
Kansas: The talent and depth are there for a big run, but do the Jayhawks have enough focus to go deep in the NCAA tournament? The first part of the season was great for Kansas. Led by fabulous freshman Ben McLemore, the Jayhawks raced through the first two months of the season, their only loss a tight one to Michigan State. The past couple of weeks have been a struggle. After scraping past West Virginia on the road on Jan. 28, Kansas lost to Oklahoma State, their first at home to the Cowboys since 1989. It got worse — much, worse — on Wednesday night, when Kansas scored 13 points in the first half against TCU for its first losing streak since 2006. After the loss to the Horned Frogs, coach Bill Self called his team the worst Kansas had put on the floor since Dr. James Naismith invented the game, so the Jayhawks (19-3) have a lot of work to do, no matter how talented they are.
Arizona. Coach Sean Miller finally has his own players in place and the Wildcats are loaded after a second straight stellar recruiting class. Arizona has a good mix of youth and veterans, with a strong backcourt and multidimensional frontcourt. What the Wildcats need is consistency. Arizona managed to pull out some close wins early in the season — Florida and San Diego State were the big ones — before it caught up to them on the road against Oregon. The Wildcats then lost at home to UCLA, a team that went on to lose to Arizona State and USC their next two games. Arizona has struggled with turnovers and perimeter defense at times, but has the talent to go deep into March — if it can find more consistency.MORE IN Wire SportsEAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.

We have fixed this several times and it is always a hit. We like to serve this as a side dish and often half the recipe. It is also great to fix for New Year's Day.
CindiS68 Posted: 01/06/11
I love this recipe! Made it many times and is a family favorite with a salad. I use a can of black-eyed peas with jalepenos to eliminate cutting up peppers.
DLammy Posted: 12/18/11
I have both made this fresh and frozen it, and we love it, sometimes using mild or regular sausage instead of spicy depending on who is eating it. For a dinner, we have it with Cesar Salad, and that's perfectly sufficient!

text: 000 FXUS63 KEAX 190405 AFDEAX AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO 1105 PM CDT Thu Sep 18 2014 .UPDATE... Issued at 900 PM CDT THU SEP 18 2014 Band of stratus over the western and southern CWA has unexpectedly cleared out since sunset. All this does is increase the risk for more widespread fog to form. Also expect to see stratus to form as it did last night. Did lower overnight lows by a few degrees due to lack of evening cloud cover. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 309 PM CDT THU SEP 18 2014 Tonight - Friday: The weak stationary front that has been draped to our south is expected to lift northward late tonight as a warm front. This will be most noticeable as winds become more southerly with time tomorrow morning and temperatures start to climb into the middle 80s. Although cloud cover may be slower to erode resulting in lower than forecast temperatures. But the change in air mass alone will result in much warmer temperatures by Friday afternoon, especially over eastern Kansas and western Missouri. Regarding precipitation, the chances for showers and storms has decreased due to a trend to push to the strongest moist isentropic ascent north of the forecast area. There may be some showers develop in northwestern Missouri late tonight, but for now the chances look too low to mention at this time. Saturday - Sunday: An upper-level shortwave trough will track across the Northern Plains and Upper Midwest through the day Saturday. This will push a cold front through the area from late in the afternoon through the overnight hours. It still appears there will be a good chance for thunderstorms in the vicinity of the front as it`s moving through. But the chances for severe weather still appear to be fairly low for several reasons. First, surface and low level winds are strongly veered ahead of the boundary, limiting helicity values. Second, the upper-level support from the upper trough will be well removed from the region. This will keep the deep layer shear relatively weak. While instability may be modest to strong, perhaps as high as 2500 to 3000 J/kg, the weak low-level convergence and low shear will inhibit a higher probability of severe storms. However, forecast soundings do show an increasingly favorable environment for down burst winds across northwestern Missouri and northeastern Kansas. So while widespread severe weather doesn`t seem likely, the strongest storms could produce strong and/or damaging winds. That cold front will have pushed through the area by Sunday morning with high pressure moving in behind. So we`ll see temperatures trending cooler with dry conditions prevailing for the day Sunday. Monday - Thursday: That high pressure area will lead to continued dry conditions Monday and Tuesday with highs in the 70s. As the high shifts to the east by Wednesday, and another shortwave trough approaches from the west, showers and storms will become possible by Wednesday. That upper- level shortwave makes very slow eastward progression as the upper ridge builds over it and as a result we`ll continue to see precipitation chances through Thursday with temperatures very close to normal. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Friday Night) Issued at 1105 PM CDT THU SEP 18 2014 Earlier IFR/MVFR stratus deck has all but dissipated across the northern half of MO and eastern KS this evening. However, this now sets the stage for better fog formation during the pre-dawn hours of Friday morning. Adding in local effects at KSTJ and dense fog now becomes a concern for a few hours either side of sunrise. IFR/MVFR fog and IFR/LIFR visibilities will linger for most of the morning before winds veer to the south and warmer air mixes in and scatters out the cloud during the afternoon. && .EAX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... KS...NONE. MO...NONE. && $$ UPDATE...MJ DISCUSSION...CDB AVIATION...MJ

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I find it very difficult to believe that this school is only rated a 5. My son's experience at Southridge has been wonderful. The teachers are well educated and dedicated, are great role models and teach and encourage with a lot of heart. My son advanced quickly and was invested in his own education because the teachers made it fun and taught with a real world application type of style. The environment is warm and comfortable and the discipline is fair. Principal Sheriff is tough, but she is fair and well respected. Take into consideration that there may be a language barrier and therefore slightly lower test scores for some students who do not speak English as a first language. Southridge quickly added the dual language learning to their curriculum to address this. My son has not attended for a year, due to a move and he misses it and still talks about the school often. As a parent, I would rate Southridge a 9.
We are happy with the school so far. My son's kindergarten teacher Ms. Corfield has been doing an excellent job at no only getting within two weeks our son to finally learn his ABC's and counting, but to read as well. She sends out regular progress reports as well as schedules meetings to involve us in his learning. We are highly impressed at the pace that the school is teaching our son. If I were to complain about anything is the fact that their conduct is included into their academic grade. In our sons case, he never went to preschool or had long periods of daily interaction with other children was so happy to be around other kids so in line he would touch other kids (point demerit), accidently step on toes in line (point demerit) not bad, except 0-1 is an A, 2-3 B, so if a child like ours despite their impressive learning in a short time, will only have a C (4-5) or a D (6 marks or more) in the week.
I love this school. I don't get the poor reviews. The only thing I would complain about is the PARENTS! They are NOT involved enough! The crossing guard yells at the kids because they jaywalk in front of the school because the parents drop them off in the street. I have 3 children who have either attended this school or are there now. Two of them are in special education and the other one has needed extra services and I have never had a problem with any of the teachers or the principal. Don't blame the teachers or the staff for the problems with some of these kids. There is only so much they can do. Parents are the children't first teachers!
We have a second grader and are very happy with the school. She is in the LEAP (T&G) program and sometimes can be socially anxious, but the teachers have really been phenomenal. Don't get me wrong, the PTA meetings are terrible, but it's not the school that makes them terrible, it's the parents. It would be hard for any school to try to "fix" rude and nasty adults.
We moved from Birdville ISD to Lewisville and are so happy with the move. We have two children at Southridge and they are both excelling both academically and emotionally. Our son's special needs are being addressed proactively and we couldn't be happier with the personalized care and attention he receives. We are very happy with the amount of timely and thorough communication we receive from the school, and the teachers and staff have been wonderful. The only reason I didn't give Southridge 5 stars is the lack of "extras" (field trips, a more robust PTA program, etc.). But academically and socially, it has been wonderful for my children.
Outward appearances make the school look better than it is, being a recognized campus means a lot to the staff. The schools is over crowded. There are unrealistic expectations of the younger grades. the Assistant Principal and Counselor are wonderful, hence why a lower rating was not given. The Principal is difficult to talk with and forgets that she is not the ultimate boss of how the children are treated, that is the parents job to make the more important decisions. Many of the teachers have lost heir sense of humor and do not appreciate a sense of humor in a young child. We as a family have had a rotten year much of it to do with the policies in place at this school. We are moving to a different school district & would live in our car to get out of South ridge.
As a teacher at Southridge I enjoy working with such a talented faculty and staff. I am very discouraged with the parents of the students I teach. They are not involved in the school or with their children's education. They often don't even show up for teacher conferences. I do enjoy the students and despite their parents, they are teachable. It's the very talented faculty and staff that make Southridge an exemplary school!
The school has been great. I feel very confident that my child is safe and getting a great education. His teacher is wonderful.
We have two children in this school and like a lot of schools, I think your experience varies depending on the teacher. We've had 2 excellent teachers, 2 horrible teachers, and 1 that was okay, but not great. Both my children have great teachers this year, so we're lucky. PTA is poor given what appears to be a lack of parent involvement and no budget (i.e., lack of parents). The counselor is awesome, but we have mixed feelings about the principal. My wife and I put our house up for sale last year specifically to move to a different school, but took it off due to the market. We are putting it back on the market in the spring and hope to be moved by the summer. We would not recommend this school.
The teachers & staff are great, my children enjoy this school and all it offers. I love the effort and time they take to help those that need that extra push and the results have been proven to go above and beyond any other school district that we have attended.
My child attends southridge and the children that are not succeding are not given my attention as needed. The ones that are making the honor roll, of course their parents will have nice comments because they dont interact academically with the teachers as we do, the ones who have the children who are struggling. I feel that if you helped a child all the way to the 3rd weeks then let them go and then rapidly see a drop in grades that should have been the first point of contact with the parents of the student instead of the 5th weeks. I am a parent that is very involved academicaly and discipline wise and I would have liked to be notified sooner. I think that the teacher is genuinly nice, but isnt equipped to deal with those that are struggling with the academics.
There are some fantastic teachers here for example the 4th grade teacher- Mrs. Hayes she's great. Other than that there are no extra act. the PTA is terrible the atmosphere is terrible and the kids are known to curse and get into fights. :| It's a shame.
from my experience, their kindergarten classes are two over crowded, and the teachers do not have enough experience with young children.
My kids came to Southridge from Grand Prairie schools. My son and my daughter were definatly having problems staying ahead. The teachers, couns., and principal are awesome! I can't say it enough! I have nothing to say but great things to say about the caring faculty! One thing that was a great change was that they really show how much they care about student safety. If your kid is going into the 3rd grade pray that they get Mrs. Beekman! She is wonderful and goes above and beyond for her kids! She totally turned my daughter around! The only complaint that I have is that my kids have to change schools due to they are no longer in Southridge's school district!

Great food and atmosphere in a part of London not known for good restaurants This is a family owned business with attention to detail and genuine
Ne Italian food and hospitality! The panacotts dessert is as good as any I've ever had, and the main courses were all tasty and well presented. I will come back here any time I'm in the area!
Myself, boyfriend and my friend who was visiting decided to come here on a Saturday evening. I booked a table as I have heard its quite a busy restaurant. We were seated straight away and offered the menu and drinks list. The only thing I didn't like about this place was the service. I found the staff to be quite moody, unfriendly and not very attentive, there seemed to be a group of adults with their children for a birthday who they seemed to be focusing more on than the other customers. Being italian myself I always find italian restaurants have the most friendly staff who always try their hardest to ensure your dining experience is the best it can be...this place had the opposite effect on me.
This is a shame as the food is really good and I really enjoyed our meal and variety of cocktails. Some of the younger staff members need to put a smile on their face and be more attentive. Our starters came and we had no knifes, it took too long to get a staff members attention that we gave up and just ended up cutting our starters with the fork. My boyfriend ordered another beer and it was just slammed on the table and the waiter walked off without asking if the rest of us were happy or needed anymore drinks, we then had to try and get another waiters attention again to order more drinks.
Its such a shame as I would be happy to go again for the food as it was very tasty, was at good prices and the fact the restaurant itself is really lovely. Its a shame some of the staff aren't as pleasant as the food, not even a thanks for coming when we left.
Never been let down here before and that is for more years than I can remember, have just booked for a rare night out with the Wife tomorrow and hope they confirm authentic, fresh, delicious and a great atmosphere.

Parts of Coos County, N.H., are under a flash flood watch because of worries about a dam.
The Gorham Dam on the northern edge of the White Mountains is leaking, prompting the flood alert for areas downstream. Divers discovered what the dam's owners call "significant structural issues."
Crews are going door-to-door notifying people in low-lying areas. The state says the dam has not failed.

Overpriced, rude service, arrogant owner, coffee consistently has grinds in the bottom of the cup which is disgusting. I won't be going back.
Best bagel you can find in the area and plenty of options. Lunch is a bit pricey and nothing to write home about but that's not why you go to a Bagel Buffet. Staff will remember you by name and service is fast for being made to order. Coffee is made fresh all day and plenty of variety if you're...
The Bagel Buffet is the place that you bring your out-of-town guests to give them a proper Jersey breakfast. There are about 12 different bagel flavors and the bagel are big, light, and make bagels from other states (except NYC-Long Island) run away in embarrassment. To top off the bagel, there are at least 10 different spreads to put on...
Love the Panini sandwiches. The Italiano is my favorite. Grilled Chicken is seasoned just right. Everything is a bit pricy but worth it. Food is all fresh and the customer service is good. The staff is well trained.
The business gets very busy and the place overall is a well oiled machine.
I highly recommend the breakfast and lunch menu.
Prices went up bagels shrunk and employees rather talk amongst themselves instead of saying thanks or interacting with the ncustomers. BLA
I have been coming here since it was a hole in the wall. Of course it's so much nicer now. A place to enjoy anything from breakfast to a hot meal/ All the food is freshly prepared. Great selection of both hot and cold food. They cater and have excellent coffee choices. Lots of great flavors which I love about...
This place is simply terrible. Their food is overpriced and you are lucky if you can find the egg that is on your breakfast sandwich (it is like 1/2 small egg and a crumb of bacon)
I have had larger orders that I paid for and when I got home, realized that they forgotten to include items. When I go...
Bagel is soft and good variety also coffee is freshly brewed and good service. Clean place. will go back again.
The Bagel Buffet is not just Bagels!! You have delectable panninis about 7 to choose from daily!. A make your own salad that has well over 25 veggies to choose from! Coffee that you make to your personal taste! A side wall that has a variety of cool drinks, that puts you guessing with, which should I try this time!!...
food at bagel buffet is always good and fresh. a lot of options. bagels are best in the area. a little pricey though
If you own or manage Bagel Buffet, register now for free tools to enhance your listing, attract new reviews, and respond to reviewers.

A word of advice:
If you're on a wireless network (or even possibly a wired one), I wouldn't advise trying to play live game while the patch is downloading. At least for me, since the Blizz Downloader is a p2p downloader, it maxes out my upload speed, bringing my ingame latency to around 2k (from a normal of around 160ms). Not fun. I'd advise downloading it while you sleep.

Lisa's Story
My last baby was born in the front seat of my mother's car on August 20, 2004. I guess the fact that this was my third child means it doesn't take too long anymore!
I had gone into the hospital for testing due to high blood pressure. After two days of testing proved me not to have pre-eclampsia, I'd been sent home the night before this story starts. My check-up at the time revealed that I was 2 cm. dilated and 95% effaced. My dilation had been the same for about a month, so nobody was concerned about that; the doctors felt that I had a few more weeks to go.
The next morning I was up getting my seven-year-old daughter, Haley, ready for school and my son, Nicholas–two years old–ready for the day. Since I had been in and out of the hospital with all of my pregnancies due to premature labor, I was used to having contractions. As long as they didn't make me want to cry, I wasn't concerned.
Well, that morning I had one pretty mild contraction, and then felt a pop. This was a very odd feeling since my water had had to be broken at the hospital with my other two. I didn't have the rush of water I'd heard about when that happens, so I still wasn't sure, but at 7:08 a.m. I called my mother just in case. After dropping my daughter off at school we headed for the hospital.
I have a high pain tolerance, so it is always difficult to know just how strong the contractions really are. I felt the head crown and informed my mother that the new recruit was on her way. NOW! We dialed 911 on her cell phone and they told us to park. By the time my mother stopped the car, Lisa Hope was already born! It was 8:03 a.m. My mom scooped her up and put her on my belly, crying and smiling as Lisa opened her eyes and moved her little fingers. My mother tied off the cord with my key chain and we waited for the ambulance, which arrived three minutes later and took us all to the hospital.
The only problem Lisa had was fluid in her lungs due to there not having been enough contractions to push it all out. She came home the same day I did, and has had no problems since.
The whole family spent the day in interviews with four different TV stations in the Dallas Fortworth area. Since Lisa was in the Neonatal Intensive Care unit and I couldn't see her for at least 12 hours, it helped keep my mind at ease.
