Episode 9 of the ACU podcast is a preview of the 5th ranked Stanford Cardinal. Nick and I discuss keys to the game, key players from both teams, missing players from Stanford (and possibly WSU as well, we're uncertain about a certain receiver) and the viability of the Seattle game. We start off with some news about the women's volleyball team though and it's always fun to get to talking about other Cougar sports as well. Enjoy!

Secrets suspended in translucent red baubles hang from red ribbons, in an arbor of the gardens at Kensington Palace in London. A month or so ago, locals and tourists alike were asked to write whatever secret they'd like to share for this colorful installation. My favorite secret, of course, is the Potter fan who confessed her love for Professor Snape.

New York, NY (SportsNetwork.com) - The Los Angeles Clippers officially have a new owner in former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer.
Ballmer's $2 billion bid to purchase the team closed Tuesday after a California court confirmed Shelly Sterling's authority to sell the team on behalf of the Sterling Family Trust, the NBA announced.
The NBA Board of Governors previously approved the sale and Ballmer is now the Clippers Governor.
"I am humbled and honored to be the new owner of the Los Angeles Clippers," Ballmer said in a statement. "Clipper fans are so amazing. They have remained fiercely loyal to our franchise through some extraordinary times. I will be hard core in giving the team, our great coach, staff and players the support they need to do their best work on the court. And we will do whatever necessary to provide our fans and their families with the best game-night experience in the NBA."
The sale was prompted after former owner Donald Sterling was banned for life from the NBA by commissioner Adam Silver in late April and fined $2.5 million for his racially offensive comments. The NBA had charged Donald Sterling with damaging the league by making racist remarks.
"This is an amazing new day in Clippers history," Clippers president of basketball operations and head coach Doc Rivers said in a statement. "I couldn't be more excited to work together with Steve as we continue to build a first-class, championship organization. I am already inspired by Steve's passion for the game, his love of competition and desire to win the right way and I know our players and fans are going to be inspired as well."
Ballmer takes over after weeks of legal battling between Shelly and Donald Sterling. Ballmer has recently stated that owning the Clippers isn't about benefiting from the team in monetary value, but that he is to "live out the dream" in trying to win a championship along with repairing the image of the organization.
Donald Sterling still is reportedly expected to appeal the sale.

XYZ NYC Competitive Dance Series Celebrates Third Installment, 12/13
xyz nyc competitive dance series celebrates its third installment on Thursday, December 13th. Modern dance-makers from across the city are invited to come together, meet for possibly the first time, and take on the difficult task of creating a new piece and showing it for an audience in a single week.
3-4 choreographers are chosen randomly each month, and the remaining interested dancers are assigned randomly to them. Every month has a different theme to be woven into the nascent dances, as well as last-minute choreographic challenges that are required to be incorporated into the pieces. The theme for this round will be "the real and the imagined." The secondary challenge will be to use an improvisational score coupled with previously choreographed material.
The public performance that happens a week after the initial meeting is a competition between these 3-4 pieces. Guest judges will provide feedback and commentary for each piece, but the winner is ultimately decided through an audience vote. Each audience member will need to justify their vote by giving a reason on a sheet of paper. The best of these are passed on to the choreographers who received the votes- giving them positive feedback not just from the judges but from the "regular" audience as well.
Catie Cuan was declared the winner of xyz nyc: Round 2, on November 18. She will perform again in the championship round in 2013, along with first-round winner Nehemoyia Young and the winner of Round 3.
The presentation of the work will be on Thursday, December 13 at 9:30PM. Tickets are $10 and availabe at http://xyznyc.brownpapertickets.com. The performance is at 151 W 46th Street, 8th Floor. Visit http://xyz-nyc.tumblr.com for more information.

Johnny Manziel might be at the top of every Google search, every national media members interview list and many young women's wish list. He is not however on top of the Cleveland Browns depth chart coming out of mini camp and going into training camp:
Brian Hoyer atop Browns quarterback depth chart heading into Training Camp…. MUST READ: http://t.co/8p0Vn9vazn pic.twitter.com/ZkuTU1nc6V
— Cleveland Browns (@Browns) June 12, 2014
This shouldn't be surprising as Brian Hoyer has had experience in a number of systems, had time with Kyle Shanahan before the draft and showed great progress last year. It shouldn't be a surprise since Mike Pettine stated before the draft that it would be tough for a rookie QB to start his right away, and that he preferred not to start a rookie.
Manziel also has a huge amount of transitions to make in the NFL. At Texas A&M he spent most of his time out of the shotgun in a spread system. While he made great plays with his feet after plays broke down, he also struggled hitting his first read and has no experience in a timing pattern system.
The best case scenario for the Browns is Drew Brees and Philip Rivers with the San Diego Chargers. Brees was the starter when Rivers was drafted but kept Rivers on the bench with his play. That later led Brees to Franchise Tagged before the Chargers gave way to Rivers. Both have shown the ability to carry their teams since that time. Hoyer is in the last year of his contract and if he has a stellar season would most likely be franchised either to keep him around for another season or to test his trade market for him.
Manziel could use a year to develop and learn the NFL speed while Hoyer helps the team succeed. The worst case scenario is Hoyer either struggling or getting injured turning it over to an unprepared Manziel. Many QBs struggle in their first season but some are unable to come back from a bad first year.
What do you think of this announcement?

Guy from Elite Gymnastics (I think? Hari said so on Twitter) having some very interesting conversations re computer-based electronic music and live performance.
like, personally, the fact that live music is not really being performed onstage does not bother me. i sort of hate when one-person studio projects or bedroom projects where the creative process or the recording of music does not involve a bunch of dudes playing rock instruments try to present themselves live as a bunch of dudes playing rock instruments. like, if i wanted to hear that, i would go listen to one of the 100000 bands there are that are straightforwardly a bunch of dudes playing rock instruments. chances are very good that i started listening to your one-man studio project or bedroom thing because i was not trying to listen to a bunch of dudes playing rock instruments. i would much rather hear something that actually sounds like the record that i like
on the other hand, if someone's creative process is sitting in front of a computer, i agree that that is not very interesting to watch. solving that problem is something that every electronic act that wants to play live has to try to figure out a way to do
sometimes people attempt to solve it by earnestly trying to reduce their reliance on backing tracks as much as possible, by putting together a rock band to play live instruments, or by triggering samples live with drum controllers or an MPC or whatever. i hate it when people do this. i think it's so dumb when i see a laptop act onstage hitting play on an sp404 or an MPC instead of a computer. like, you just spent like 1k so you could hit play on something that says "roland" or "akai" on it instead of something that says "apple". and do you know why you did that? because people in the audience probably own things that say "apple", so things that say "roland" or "akai" will seem less familiar and more mysterious and impressive and will thus stand a better chance of fooling people into believing that you are not just hitting play on them. that's fucking stupid.
sometimes people solve it by faking a live show. this is very common. if someone's record is doing well, people want to hear the music on it over a big system and they want to see people doing stuff onstage. so sometimes people just play the record over the PA and have people onstage pretending to be the ones making those sounds. it gives almost everybody what they actually want - if a band using this approach had built their career on their technical prowess, it would be scandalous, but that's almost never true of one-man studio bands or bedroom projects, so who cares, you know?

In my mind Hermann has a hairless cat, named Mileva (after a swedish physicist) and Newton, being a dog person, doesn't like her too much (also hairless cats are kind of freaky). So when Newt breaks the lab rules Hermann brings her in as a punishment.
Newt often treats her like she is some monster and then Hermann starts to yell at him b/c he dissects and is obsessed with huge alien monster, his cat isn't going to do anything to him.

Coolio Made A Music Video With Pornhub
With the crowded new media landscape artists have to find new and inventive ways to catch the public's attention. Coolio, who's prepping his first project since 2009, apparently has taken this challenge to heart.
The rapper is teaming up with Pornhub.com for his new music video. The file sharing site is footing the bill for Coolio's fantastic return in exchange for the right to debut his new project. Cameras have already rolled on his music video "Take It To The Hub" which co-stars adult film luminaries such as Skin Diamond, Jessica Bangkok and Missy Martinez.
This is first release of the agreement between Coolio and the site. No word on if the twerking dinosaur will be making any future appearances.

It can be a bit intimidating to go vegan all at once. What do I eat? I mean I know what I can't eat, but how do I put it all into a recipe? How can I make sure that my vegan meals are balanced and that my family will eat them as well? More and more people are at least cutting back on their meat consumption because it vastly reduces your eco-impact. It's best to hit the farmers' market and indulge in the healthiest, freshest produce available, especially because a vegan diet is almost completely produce driven.
Also, consider joining a CSA. A CSA (or community supported agriculture co-op) means buying a portion of your favorite local farmer's harvest every season. That means for a few hundred dollars you get a box every week filled to the brim with what's currently growing at the farm. It's truly a deal that can't be beat.
This vegan recipe guide can be used as a vegan starter kit or as a means to detox the body for a week and maybe drop a few pounds. Most of all, enjoy! The vegan diet is absolutely delicious.1. Vegan Paella
Paella is the quintessential Spanish dish traditionally made with tons of seafood. But as a vegan cashews become the protein. You still get to enjoy the incredible depth of the flavor that goes along with the dish. Use a decent white wine here. When you're cooking with wine the flavor actually gets more intense rather than the opposite so take that into account when you're dumping Franzia into the dish.
1 large Vidalia onion, chopped 4 tbsp organic olive oil 12 oz organic brown rice 1 large carton organic vegetable stock 6 oz dry white wine 1 16 oz can organic chopped tomatoes 1 tbsp tomato puree ½ tsp dried tarragon 1 tsp dried basil 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 tsp oregano 1 red pepper, chopped 3 sticks celery, chopped 1 cup mushrooms, whatever is locally available, chopped ½ cup frozen peas ¼ cup broken cashew nuts Sea salt and pepper to taste
1. In a large, heavy saucepan fry the onion in 4 tbsp olive oil.
2. Add rice to the pot.
3. Add vegetable stock, wine, tomatoes, tomato puree, tarragon, basil, garlic, and oregano to the pot.
4. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Add peppers, celery, and mushrooms and cook for another 30 minutes until the rice is cooked.
5. Add peas, cashew nuts, salt, and pepper.
6. Heat through until peas are ready and serve.2. Avocado Grapefruit Salad
The creamy, fatty texture of the avocado works incredibly well with the sour tart flavor of the grapefruit in this. The salad is dainty but filling because of the avocado. I made this for my husband but he hardly ended up getting any bites because I gobbled it up so fast.
Ingredients: ½ avocado 1 small or ½ medium sized grapefruit 2 tbsp scallions, chopped ¼ cup cucumber, cut into fourths and then chopped 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds juice of 1 lemon 2 tsp organic soy sauce black pepper to taste
1. Peel and cut avocado into ½ inch pieces.
2. Peel grapefruit and use only the flesh without the thin white skin in between the fleshy parts and cut or tear into pieces.
3. Combine avocado, grapefruit, scallions, and cucumber together carefully, add sesame seeds, lemon juice, soy sauce, and black pepper.
Source: VegWeb3.Caramelized Seitan with Leeks
I have really never cooked with seitan prior to this attempt. I had seen it on a number of vegetarian restaurant menus, but it was rather unfamiliar. I decided one day to give it a gander. To my surprise the texture is much less spongy than tofu. Caramelizing really adds a nice flavor as well.
Ingredients: 1 package seitan 2 cups leeks chopped in rings ½ yellow onion chopped finely 2 TBSP organic brown sugar 1 TSBP olive oil pinch of fleur de sel
1. Sauté onions and leeks in olive oil.
2. Add seitan.
3. Add brown sugar. Cook slowly over low heat until the brown sugar coats the seitan.
4. Top with salt.

I'm a college student who loves to play soccer, play in the powder and do little 180s on my snowboard. Swimming in alpine lakes and summiting non-technical peaks in hiking boots make me happy. And friends... freaking love my friends.
I used a Burton Custom for five years and I absolutely loved it. It had such a good feel on so many types of terrain. Even easy to go down moguls with it! :-) Finally last winter someone broke into our shed and stole it. Now I'm definately looking into buying another Custom.

Now that Thanksgiving has come and gone it is time to get serious about Christmas. I got a big chunk of my shopping done on CyperMonday! How about you? One of my favorite holiday activities is our Annual Cookie Baking Day. I spend a lot of time coming up with just the right menu of cookies. Being sure flavors are balanced – can't have all chocolate cookies. There is always a list of our favorites like Lemon Drops and Snowballs. Each year I always add a few new recipes to [Continue Reading...]
Cranberry Salsa
I have been on a bit of a cranberry craze this fall. First there were those yummy egg nog cranberry white chocolate muffins (which seriously, if you haven't tried, you really need too!) and then the cranberry pineapple muffins which were so nice and moist. And then I came up with the yummy cranberry cream cheese bars which were quite delightful!. To be perfectly honest, I don't think I have ever really cooked or baked with cranberries before. Beside opening that can of cranberry relish on Thanksgiving, I had never [Continue Reading...]
Cranberry Cheesecake Bars
This recipe is a little late for Thanksgiving this year but it is just in time for the upcoming holiday baking season. We are kicking off with a good one. Cranberry Cheesecake Bars will make a great addition to any holiday party or holiday cookie plate you may be putting together in December. They are yummy! This recipe is a combination of two of my favorite bar cookie recipes. The cream cheese layer from my lemon cheesecake bars and the crust and topping from the yummy sour cream apple bars.

Cranberry Brie Pizza
Appetizers are my favorite part of a meal. Many times it is an overlooked part of a meal but I love to fix a couple of really good appetizers to have for people to snack on while dinner is finishing up. It also helps keep the masses under control if dinner is delayed at all! For Thanksgiving Dinner I will be fixing my stand by appetizer – Roasted Garlic and Artichoke Dip I love this dip and could eat the whole thing myself!!

3 Hours of Valencia! →
I'd like some feedback before I decide whether or not to do this…
I would really love to put together a Valencia scrapbook, full of photos from fans, letters, drawings, anything fans can think of to show the band just how much we appreciate them. Would the followers of hellyeahvalencia participate if I did this? You would be able to mail hyvalencia items or just send in things via email and I can print them out. I'll put it all in a nice scrapbook and find a way to get it to the band. I was thinking this could be a two month project and have all entries due by December 1st so I will have time to put it together as a Christmas present for the band.
So, what do you all think? Would you participate and send in things for the band?
I've gotten some good feedback about this idea so I think it's gonna happen! I'll have the full project planned by the end of this week. Thanks for the feedback!
Ex-Valencia drummer, Maxim Soria, has died in a motorcycle crash. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Maxim's family, Valencia and all of his close friends. Take a moment out of your day to remember Maxim.

Polo Ralph Lauren Floral and Paisley S/S '13
Waiting for spring.
This Just In: Burgundy Paisley Pocket Square (Unbranded)
$5 @ Reminessence
I've been looking for some pocket squares in nice fall colors/patterns. I'm pretty good with summer/spring squares. This one will do nicely for the fall. I'm still on the look out for one in olive and also one in solid navy wool to replace the one I made. It was my go to this winter. I should go ahead and get a proper one.
Polo Ralph Lauren Paisley Tie, Bow Tie, and Pocket Square
Feeling me some Paisley at the moment. Ralphie does it right.
Polo Neat/Paisley Ties in Action
This Just In: Polo Ralph Lauren Sueded Silk Paisley Ties (Handmade in Italy)
$25 each @ Century 21 ($125 retail)
I like having fun when I dress up. Every now and then, I want something a bit more serious, but that still has style. These ties do it for me. Neat print on top with a wide paisley border into a solid on warm fall colors. So classy. These say grownup style to me, but I match my socks and my ties so don't trust my opinion.
Plus, ok. I have to admit. This was a bit of an impulse buy. I was on my way to meet my wife and ran into these. The sueded silk fabric just had such a nice hand and weight to it that I just couldn't resist. I didn't want to come back later and find them gone.
In general, Century 21 stays having quality $25 Polo ties. I picked up two 100% cashmere knit ties for $17 a piece from them this fall. If you don't have time to thrift and don't trust eBay, Century 21 is a good place to go for cheap quality ties.
WIWT - Pattern mixing. I thought I would end this work week with a little flair since I had meetings schedule throughout the day. When you mix patterns effectively, it helps to bring attention to you, in a good way. Therefore, I went with an navy blazer with faint pinstripes, an orange gingham shirt, solid navy tie, paisley PS, white chinos, and tassel loafers.

Prepositions and Prepositional Phrases Study Guide
Prepositions and Prepositional Phrases
From now on, ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I will not put.
You'd be surprised by the number of OOPs we find in sentences. First, you will learn what OOPs actually are and then you'll learn how and where to find them.
A preposition is a word that expresses a relationship between some words in a sentence, usually in regard to time (when) or space (where), much like an adverb. In order for a word to be considered a preposition, it must be part of a prepositional phrase—a group of words, that begins with a preposition and ends with a noun or a pronoun. The noun or pronoun at the end of the phrase is called the object of the preposition, or OOP. Here are a few prepositional phrases:
- across the street
- over the top
- beyond her comprehension
- around the corner
Since adverbs also tell where and when about words, telling the difference between a preposition and an adverb can be tricky. Just remember that a preposition must always be part of a prepositional phrase, and in fact must always be the first word in the phrase. If it does not begin a phrase, it is an adverb. For example, the words underneath and around in the following sentences are adverbs, because they do not begin a prepositional phrase:
I lifted the log carefully, looked underneath, and saw a centipede.
When Julie heard a strange noise, she turned around.
Notice how the words underneath and around stand by themselves in the sentences. Adverbs can do that.
In the next two sentences, underneath and around are prepositions. Each is followed by an OOP, making a prepositional phrase:
Sally found her mother's slippers underneath the bed.
Ken looked around the corner before proceeding.
A grammar exercise for this concept can be found at Prepositions and Prepositional Phrases Practice Exercise.

John Smid, Former Leader of 'Ex-Gay' Therapy Ministry, Discusses His Changed Views, New Film: VIDEO
Those of you who have been reading Towleroad since 2005 may remember the story of Zach, a gay teen who cried out for help on MySpace after being sent by his parents to the Tennessee-based "Love in Action" ministry for gay 'reparative therapy'. Love in Action was run by John Smid, who came out of the closet in 2011 and now says gays cannot change their sexuality. He has since left his position.
Now there's a new documentary from filmmaker Morgan John Fox called This is What Love in Action Looks Like (I've written about it a few times as well) which features a look at Love in Action and Smid's story.
Fox and Smid appeared on Starting Point with Soledad O'Brien this morning to discuss the film.
Watch it, along with the film's trailer, AFTER THE JUMP...
In related news, if you have SiriusXM, Michelangelo Signorile will be talking to Smid on his Sirius OutQ show today at 3:30 pm.

AT&T to help Apple sell iPad to businesses small and largeAT&T said Friday that it will market all three of Apple's iPad Wi-Fi + 3G models directly to businesses of all sizes as part of an initiative to help companies increase productivity and flexibility.
The exclusive U.S. iPhone provider said it will offer attractive post-paid mobile broadband price plans for the iPad which will be available through AT&T business account representatives beginning Thursday, October 28.
Those offers will be available for customers whose AT&T wireless bills are paid for by their employer, while the iPads themselves will be available for corporate purchase with a corporate service subscription from AT&T.
"iPad is a great fit for our enterprise customers across a wide range of industries who are looking for ways to increase business productivity and offer greater flexibility," said Michael Antieri, President, Advanced Enterprise Mobility Solutions, AT&T Business Solutions. "This new offer further strengthens AT&T's commitment to provide businesses with the tools they need to accelerate mobility-led productivity."
The announcement comes just one day after the carrier announced, alongside rival Verizon, that Apple had authorized it to begin selling iPads later this month to mainstream consumers within its brick-and-mortar retail stores.
It's also the latest offer from AT&T's Advanced Enterprise Mobility Solutions Group, a team which is focused on helping to enable business model transformation through mobile applications, machine-to-machine solutions and mobile services.

Building a Rustic Outdoor Bed
John and Jimmy DiResta bring the comforts of home to the great outdoors when they build a king-size Adirondack-style bed frame. They start with 8-foot white birch logs and use special tools and techniques to notch and peg the birch.
Print OptionsClose
E-mail This Page to Your Friendsx
A link to %this page% was e-mailed
25 to 30 raw, unpeeled birch posts ranging in thickness from 2 to 4" and in length from 8 to 10'
One 1" dual-steel-blade tenon cutter (*Requires a 1/2" chuck drill with a minimum of 7 amps and a maximum of 700 RPMs. The 1" tenon is for posts up to 2-1/2".)
One 1-1/2" dual-steel-blade tenon cutter (*Requires a 1/2" chuck drill with a minimum of 7 amps and a maximum of 700 RPMs. The 1.5" tenon is for posts up to 3".)
One king-size mattress and box spring
One spool of off-white thread
Five yards of off-white burlap canvas (used for upholstery)
Five yards of furniture batting
20-square-feet of 1" high-density foam rubber
10 pine 2x4s
Two 8-foot, 8-inch wide 3/4" oak planks
Three sheets of 4x8 3/4" birch plywood
One sheet of 4x8 1/2" birch plywood
drill with 1/2" chuck, minimum of 7 amps, maximum 700 rpms
ratchet straps
thick rope
chop saw
band saw
table saw
measuring tape
sewing machine
1. The headboard and footboard are constructed using a mortise and tenon method. Create pegs on the ends of the posts using the 1" and 1-1/2 dual-blade tenon cutter mounted on a drill (figure A).
2. Drill properly sized holes into the accepting post to fit in the peg. As you begin to notch the posts, use screws, ratchet straps or thick rope to clamp the posts together. Use a mallet to secure posts, and a saw to trim pegs. Screw posts into place (figure B).
3. To create the two side-rails connecting the headboard and footboard (one on either side), cut the 3/4-inch oak planks with a chop saw to fit between the corner posts. On one side of the planks, running the length, cut 2-inch thick birch posts half length-wise using a band saw. Screw the birch into place.
4. Use braces at either end of the rails to attach the side-rails to the head and footboards (on the non-birch side). Take the pine 2x4 and cut a triangular chunk of wood that lines up with the edge of the oak plank and protrudes 2-3 inches and slopes down toward the plank 1 to 1-1/2 inches. Use three screws to connect the protruding portion of the brace to the corner post.
5. Take the burlap canvas and cut 36 9-inch squares with a razor and a straightedge: 27 of the squares will be exposed within the headboard in a 9x3-foot grid. Sew the squares together into a 9x4 grid using an off-white thread (figure C).
6. Place a fitting piece of high-density foam on a 24x72-inch piece of 1/2-inch plywood and top with some upholstery batting. Wrap the canvas around the batting and staple into the back (figure D). Work from the center to the corners to prevent wrinkles. Use screws and staples to attach the cushioned canvas.
7. To create the frame of the platform, use pine 2 x 4s to construct two pieces parallel to the side rails (one under the rail, one at the middle of the bed) and four pieces parallel to the headboard (one under the footboard, one under the headboard and the two others equally spaced across the middle portion of the bed). The six pieces of pine, in total, make up one frame of the platform. The two frames meet in the center of the bed (figure E). Each frame of the platform is about 3-1/2 feet wide to create the 80-inch width. Screw it into place.
8. Cover the two platform frames with 1/2-inch birch plywood, using a table saw to cut them. Use two equal plywood sheets for each frame. Screw everything into place.
9. Use a chop saw to cut small legs from pine 2x4s to fit from the bottom of the platform frame to the floor. They should be 6 to 8-inches high. Use at least 8 legs (4 for each platform frame) to support the weight. Screw them into place.
Dimensions for Birch Ends:
- The birch posts will vary in straightness and length, and natural materials are subject to variability (figure F).
- The headboard contains two 3-1/2 to 4-inch corner posts and four 2-1/2 to 3-inch horizontal posts (working from the bottom up): one that is 10 inches from the bottom, then a 12-1/2 inch space, then another post, then a 24-inch gap (for the cushion), then another post (figure G).
- Leave a 12-inch gap, then another post. Between the top two horizontal posts space nine 2 to 2-1/2 inch thick vertical posts 6 inches apart.
- The footboard contains two 3-1/2 to 4-inch corner posts and three 2-1/2 to 3-inch horizontal posts (from the bottom up): one that is 5 to 6 inches from the bottom, then a 7 to 8-inch gap, then another post, then a 20 to 24-inch gap, then another post.
- Place nine 2 to 2-1/2 inch thick vertical posts between the top two horizontal posts. Space them about 6 inches apart.
- The four corner posts are 7-feet tall. The overall length and width are 80 inches by 80 inches.

I'm in a bad spot myself now and disabled and I thank my fellow parishoners for helping me. I do things to try and pass it on as well. We can 't let the government control us. I am not eager to see furture Christians forced back into the "catacombs". If we believe in charity and justice, then we should be willing to fund these things ourselves our way. That includes paying the cost of incarcerating criminals rather than executing them. Government had destroyed charity in many ways What happened to the Catholic orphanges. Now with over 55 million abortions, we've reached a death toll of which Mao Tse Tung would be proud

Womanly Art of Breastfeeding 6TH Editionby La Leche League Inte
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
A newly revised and updated version of a definitive bestselling book on breastfeeding.
One of the most influential child-care books ever published, the newest edition of The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding includes the latest scientific information about the health benefits of breastfeeding.
A wealth of helpful hints such as preparing for breasffeeding, returning to work, nutritional advice for mothers, and the weaning process is provided. General child-care tips on handling colicky babies, the father's role in the baby's life, and toddler discipline are also contained in this comprehensive book. This updated version adds new information on the effects of labor medications on newborns, exercising and losing weight safely while nursing, research that shows breastfed babies have higher IQs, and much more.
The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding is written in a warm, encouraging and positive voice that better informs us about the important benefits offered to mother and child. It is filled with loads of expert advice from healthcare professionals, plus the real-life experiences of other breasffeeding women offering invaluable support and guidance no new mother can do without.
All parents want the best for their babies, and there's no doubt about the fact that human milk is the ideal food for human babies. What's the secret of successful breastfeeding? For almost fifty years mothers who have been in touch with La Leche League have found the kind of information and support they needed to breastfeed their babies.
In this newly revised edition of The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding, you will learn:
How human milk offers lifetime benefits for your baby
How to prepare for breastfeeding during pregnancy
How to exercise and lose weight safely while nursing
How to find time for yourself while meeting baby's needs
How to increase your milk supply by using herbs and medications
How to be sure your baby is getting enough to eat
The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding was the first book of its kind, written for mothers by mothers. Over the years, more than two million mothers have turned to it for information and inspiration.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 414-[454]) and index.
About the Author
Since 1955 when La LEche League started with seven women in the Chicago suburbs, it has grown into the leading breastfeeding advocacy organization in the world, with more than three thousand groups in fifty countries. La Leche League International regularly holds seminars and workshops for health care professionals and parents, and publishes more than twenty books on child care.

A case for the pirates of yore
February 4, 2011
After centuries of relative--and perhaps, intentional--obscurity, pirates have been on broadsides, er, the news, thanks to a surge in high sea hijackings off the Somali coast.
Every so often, a journalist or visitor will venture through The Pirate Museum and ask, "Aren't you romanticizing the lifestyle of violent men who made their living as maritime thieves?" (or something like that) and I welcome the challenge.
Pirates were by no means nice guys: they tortured captives and slay crews that resisted attack. But let's not forget that civilization as we know it operated under different rules back then.
"(Pirates) were nasty, brutal and vicious people. But they lived in an age which was extraordinarily nasty, brutal and vicious," pirate expert Kenneth Kinkor told the Associated Press.
During the Golden Age of Piracy (1690-1730), life for the common man was a daily struggle to simply survive against government or merchant ship tyranny, cruelty, and barely-existent wages. Under punishing and dangerous conditions, starving workers made one piece of eight (roughly 7 shillings) per month! Piracy offered escape from a difficult and painfully disparate life.
Piracy was a democratic undertaking; pirates voted on most major decisions, including who would be their captain, where to sail next and if to attack another vessel.
They also got their fair share of loot, whereas merchant ship captains often took 15 times more than their crews, who were left at times with almost nothing to show for their work.
Pirates had the first form of disability insurance long before it became standard. If they lost an arm or a leg in battle, they were handsomely compensated, and if they were killed, their families sometimes received payments, too.
Pirates were also a colorblind folk. Ships were an empowering and inordinately fair place for black men and former slaves in the 18th century. They had same right as white pirates to booty and to vote. Some were even elected captains.
Pirates spent a lot less time in combat than you might think. The Jolly Roger flag was raised as a warning to surrender rather than indicate attack mode. (The all-red flag indicated that.) Think about it: fighting could lead to injury and they wanted to avoid injury at all costs. Surrender is way better than a fight to the death.
Pirate ships also had rules called Articles or the Code of Conduct that had to be signed by every crew member. These rules included no smoking below decks after sunset, lights out by eight, no women or boys aboard and no gambling, which often led to fights. Barbarians? Not these guys.
In the beginning, colonies like England and France hired private sailors to raid and destroy the ships, forts, and townships of their enemies to undermine trade and seize cargo that would help feed their people and aid their nation's economies. With official backing from their government, these privateers and buccaneers were considered heroes in their own country. With one stroke of a pen on a treaty parchment, sailors who continued to do what they did best for mother country were labeled "pirates."
The pirates of today are nothing but thugs under the oppressive rule of drug warlords. There's no democracy, no upward mobility, no chance of rising in status or station. Modern day pirates would probably make my pirates of centuries ago roll over in their skull and crossbones-studded graves!
