We need to send a SOAP message to a webservice. This is somewhat new territory, so we are a bit confused... even when searching and reading about the subject. Here is what we know / did:
1) We must authenticate through the use of a Digital Certificate in Base64 (obtained issuing a CSR – Certificate Signing Request).
2) The SOAP message must contain a Security Header (wss:Security xmlns:wss="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2002/12/secext") and a Body.
3) The WSDL file does not contain a HEADER section, but we have the header "Field structure"
4) We decided to use Axis2/xmlbeans, and created the JAVA classes with https://axis.apache.org/axis2/java/core/tools/eclipse/wsdl2java-plugin.html
5) We can easily create the STUB and send the WSDL body element using the provided sync/async register stub methods (i assume Axis2 will generate the correct SOAP message)
1) How can we add the WS-Security(?) HEADER to the SOAP message. Do we have to manipulate the AXIS2 generated code?
2) How can we authenticate using the Digital Certificate?

Cook-Illinois Corp. quadruples its current fleet of propane buses with the addition of the Thomas Built Saf-T-Liner C2 buses.
Delivery of the CE Series buses, which are equipped with Power Solutions International engines, began in June and will be complete in time for the 2016-17 school year.
The Propane Education and Research Council's Michael Taylor discusses ways in which propane school buses can save transportation providers money beyond just in fuel costs.
As our sales numbers show, diesel still dominates the school bus market, but there's growing interest in the alternatives.
Since 2015, Pinellas, Polk, Pasco, and Hillsborough County school districts have added 170 new Blue Bird Vision Propane buses and have seen lower emissions and savings in fuel and maintenance costs.
New gasoline and CNG school buses, a V8 diesel engine, and electronic stability control are among the offerings that customers experience at a Blue Bird event in Nashville.
The new school buses will also run on propane and will include onboard video surveillance and GPS.
Bibb County (Ga.) School District adds 22 Blue Bird Propane Vision buses to its 31 units after seeing benefits such as less maintenance and lower costs.
Wayne Township's new propane-powered Blue Bird buses are funded in part by a $45,000 grant from the Indiana Office of Energy Development.
The 43rd Annual Montgomery-Bucks School Bus Safety Competition in Pennsylvania will use the alternative-fuel buses for the first time.
Canyon State Bus Sales' new 27,500-square-foot facility enables the Blue Bird dealer to increase its staff by 15% immediately.
The new Blue Bird Vision Propane bus is expected to lower Grace School District's operating costs while reducing environmental impact.
The school bus operator's pact with two Nebraska districts now extends to 2019. David Prince, STA's general manager of the contract, now takes on broader responsibility.

Summer 2016 Podcast Update
Podcasting is one of the odder mediums out there, but it's one that I hold dear. This probably has something to do with how quickly I became a podcaster after learning about it. I love movies, but have never made one. I love music, but I've never made an album. But the time between hearing my first podcast and making my first podcast was incredibly short. I wanted to be part of it.

Hyam signs new two-year deal at Ipswich Town
Ipswich Town midfielder Luke Hyam has signed a new contract with the club.
The 24-year-old has agreed a two-year extension which will expire in the summer of 2018.
Hyam came through the academy ranks at Portman Road and spent time on loan at Rotherham United earlier this season.
Prêt-à-Portman: Ipswich Town unveil new kit
The 2015/16 season may not have ended yet but Ipswich Town already have an eye on next season.
The Suffolk side have just unveiled their new home & away kits which go on sale today.
Ipswich Town to release Tabb and Varney in the summer
Ipswich Town duo Luke Varney and Jay Tabb will leave the club in the summer, the club have confirmed.
The pair have both struggled for first team opportunities this season and are now free to find new clubs.
Defender Kevin Foley may still be offered a new contract though.
Varney's a top professional and a top person and I'd like to think we have both been good for each other.
We looked after him when he snapped his achilles and he has repaid us with his professionalism and what he has done on the pitch for us.
We have four strikers though, and they have been in front of him because of injury and one reason and another.
With Foley, it's an on-going discussion.
He is versatile and would give us options but fundamentally he is a right-back.
We have Josh (Emmanuel) coming through in that position and when we kick off next season, the best right-back we have here will play.
He will sit down with his family and decide what's best for him.
Dozzell wants first team place after signing Ipswich Town deal
Ipswich Town midfielder Andre Dozzell says he's targeting a regular starting role in the first team next season after signing his first professional contract with the club.
Dozzell agreed the deal on his 17th birthday yesterday - despite reported interest from the Premier League.
The teenager scored his first goal for the club against Sheffield Wednesday last month and is keen to taste more first team action at Portman Road next season.
At the start of the season my aim was to break into the first-team because I had been playing regularly for the U21s and the next step is the first-team but it was a bit crazy to score on my debut.
It's been great to have been around the first-team lately. My dad has been there too so he can give me advice on how handle it so that's helped.
Obviously I'm pleased with the progress I've made here and hopefully I can push on from here and try and get more first-team football next year. That is the target.

McCarthy concedes Ipswich Town's play-off hopes are fading
Ipswich Town manager Mick McCarthy admits it's now going to be a tough ask for his team to make The Championship play-offs.
Town could only draw 0-0 at home to relegation-threatened Charlton Athletic last night - with Ben Pringle and Jonathan Douglas coming the closest to finding a winner.
The result leaves Town seven points adrift of the top six.
The one positive is that they still have Sheffield Wednesday and Derby County left to play, and McCarthy says they're going to have to beat both of them to stand any chance.
Seven points out of it, we're making it harder still for ourselves.
But as I've just said to the players, we've got to stick together and make sure that we try and get as many points as we can and see where it takes us.
Hopefully that will be in the play-offs but that is looking increasingly unlikely.

Ipswich Town agree loan deal for Bolton winger Feeney
Ipswich Town have signed Bolton winger Liam Feeney on loan until the end of the season.
The 29-year-old's contract at Bolton is up in the summer.
Feeney could make his debut for Town in their game against Rotherham United at Portman Road on Saturday.
He would also be available for any play-off campaign, should Ipswich make the top six.
I'm really excited and I'm glad it's done now
Coming from the situation at Bolton to come into a team that's pushing for the Play-Offs is exciting and hopefully I can add to that.
It's a different type of pressure to play under but it's an exciting kind, and the sort you want to be playing under at the right end of the table.
I can bring a directness to the team. I like to run with the ball, put crosses in so hopefully I can help create a few goals when given the opportunity.
The gaffer will get a good look at me in my time here so hopefully it goes well and we'll see what happens next year.

YOUR STARS FOR 2005Remember 2004? Admit it, last year wasn't the best for behaving. Talking back at the teacher, handing in the homework late and laughing at your mum after she accidentally farted in the theatre before making sure you let one rip too. But don't worry. Ignore all the tut tut tuting ringing in your ears because 2005 will be the year when most of you will become obsessed with doing good or pretending to do good even while you're being only slightly good or not that good at all. It's time to put on your goody two shoes because 2005 is going to be very sensible!
(December 21- January 19)
LIKES: Short pants, short socks, long movies and short books.
DISLIKES: Pleated pants, frilly socks, long socks and sticky socks.
LOOKS LIKE: A cowamonkey with horns (with socks on them).
Every single other Cowamonkey in the world. Even ones without horns. But not ones without socks.
DAVE SAYS: It's important to wash your socks every day and your pants every second day.
Capricorn this month:
This year is about discovery. There's a chance you'll discover some things under your bed that grew there. Do you remember that squishy banana sandwich your mum put in your lunchbox on the last day of school last year? Do you remember how you shoved the lunchbox under your bed when you got home without even checking what was inside? This year, on the first day of school you will discover what was inside the lunchbox.

(January 20 - February 18)
You've experimented with a lot of things – cabbage, mobile ring tones and dodging homework among them but 2005 makes you realise that experimenting with such trivial things can't lead you down the path of goodness. It's time to experiment with your brain. Things like shutting your left eyelid while tapping gently on the back of your head. Does the world look different?
Email to a friend | to the top
(February 19 - March 20)
You're a natural sop. When before you liked to work hard begging your parents for your pocket money, in 2005 you begin to realise that by being really nice to those who count (your relatives with lots of cars) you can usually get a really good Christmas present out of them by year's end, not to mention a birthday pressie, and perhaps even an Easter egg if you're lucky.
(March 21 - April 20)
You will begin to like writing poems. Then you will really, really start to like writing poems and even reading poems and that's when your friends will start to worry. By year's end you will have quite a collection, all containing verses rhyming with 'Orange'
(April 21 - May 20)
You love clutter and colour and adore your collection of pens with little boats in them that float up and down. However by June you will suddenly throw everything out (except your pen collection) and become the biggest neat freak you ever knew.
(May 21 - June 20)
You were very naughty last year but all of a sudden bad behaviour seems so boring. In 2005 you will find that you need something fresh and new to entertain your hyperactive nature. Like knitting woolly jumpers and darning socks and even listening to poems by your Aries friends.
(June 21 - July 21)
This year is about journeys. While in 2004 you spent much of your time at home, in 2005 you will spend only some of your time at home and much of your time travelling to school. You will also have several holidays during the year, each of which will involve travel on the bus or even a train if you're very lucky.
(July 22 - August 21)
You love being the drama queen. In 2005 however you will be horrified as everyone around you starts to become neat freaks and study heads. Because everyone is so good, they won't gossip; and without gossip, there's no drama; without drama you can't be the drama queen you long to be.
(August 22 - September 21)
You are the sensible one, but always wanted to be adventurous. While everyone around you learns how to be sensible and gets up early every morning to make breakfast for their parents, you go and throw eggs at your neighbour's post box. Then when you get into trouble, you decide being adventurous isn't that great and decide to be sensible again. This makes your parents very happy.
(September 22 – October 22)
2005 is all about order. You are about to become the neatest neat freak of all your friends. You will put everything in alphabetical order including your CDs and the breakfast cereals. You'll also order the tins of baked beans by the bean count in each tin and reorder the family photos into colour groups.
(October 23 - November 21)
You used to pretend you were rough and tough but in 2005 you will be free to share all your innermost thoughts with everyone you come across, including the lady down the paper shop and your one-year old cousin. I've asked my old dog Clive to share his innermost thoughts with me this year and because I value your readership I shall share them with you: "Feed me." "Feed me." "Feed me." "Feed me."
(November 22- December 20)
2005 is all about growth and change. You love showing anyone how many jellybeans you can fit in your mouth and as your jaw grows bigger you'll graduate your amazing gob skills on to marshmallows and even boiled sweets! By May however your dentist will go ape and you'll be forced to use grapes instead.

Major tip make sure when you put the address into GPS you put the zip code in. Apparently there is an identical address about 25 minutes from the hotel just a different zip code. Atlanta has always been the worst place to navigate that I've ever visited. When I called to figure out where I was and how to get to the hotel the woman that answered asked me where I was I told her I'm not sure because I'm not from there and stated I was near a hospital she said since i couldn't tell her where I was she couldn't help me. Another woman got on the phone after a little bit of back and forth and explained the zip code issue. Once I arrived after a very long drive from Florida with my two pre teens in tow we waited at the front desk for awhile before the employee got up from where she was sitting in the lobby talking to check us in. I was less than impressed with the customer service. We get to our room to find the sofa and chair looking very old and worn. A stained bath tub, a microwave and fridge that appeared to be from the early 80's and a bathroom door that wouldn't latch along with a jacked up door knob. Thankfully the bed and bedding was nice. The hair dryer was also dated. Overall not what one would expect from wingate. I was looking forward to a nice soak in the hot tub (or as they now call it: the spa) only to find it was out of order. I am not hard to please but I was very disappointed overall. If I were staying for more than one night I likely would have requested a different room. The sofa bed couldn't be used unless you moved the furniture around (my kids had to move around some chairs) and the mattress was so thin I'm not sure you could call it a mattress. More like a mattress topper. You also had no room to walk after it was opened and couldn't use the desk. To get to the bathroom or fridge you had to climb over the sofa bed. It was a very small room for a "suite". The only good thing was the location and the breakfast.

Several local school districts will receive 108 of the 1,020 new preschool spots under the state-funded School Readiness Program, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy announced Wednesday in a news conference.
"Investing in high-quality education is the single most important investment we can make in our state and our economy," Malloy said at a press conference in Meriden to announce the funding. "That has driven my efforts from day one as mayor of Stamford and governor of Connecticut. With this expansion, we are taking immediate steps to provide 1,020 additional children in low-income families with a strong start and foundation for lifelong success."
Local programs eligible to receive spots are enrolled in the School Readiness Program, which provides funding for preschool for low-income 3- and 4-year-olds in priority and competitive districts in the state. Expansion of the program was approved by the General Assembly this spring.
In the priority district category, Norwich will receive 36 allocated slots and New London will receive 12 slots at the beginning of the next school year.
"It obviously will give children more of an opportunity to get a preschool experience, which we know increases the likelihood of success," New London Superintendent Nicholas A. Fischer said.
In addition, as competitive districts — based on the number of low-income families — Griswold will receive 26 slots, Groton 13, Voluntown 15, Ledyard three, and Sprague six.
"We're ecstatic," said Kevin Trejo, chairman of Children First Groton, which is working on a townwide plan for early childhood education. "The more we get, the better it is for the kids of Groton."
He said Groton had 33 slots in the program last year, then gained five more from December until June. He said he's not sure whether the state is now adding 13 spaces onto the original 33 or onto the 38, but he's glad to have whatever is available.
The program, located at Riverfront Children's Center on Thames Street and The Groton Early Childhood Development Center on Poquonnock Road, offers not only educational opportunity to children but health screenings as well, Trejo said.
"There will be at least 46 seats for parents who don't have the money to send their kids to prekindergarten," he said.
The preschool expansion is part of a five-year plan to expand the state's school readiness program to serve 4,010 additional children by 2019 by adding approximately 1,000 additional children for each of the first three years and 500 children during each of the last two years of the plan.
Lynn DePina, director of the Bishop Early Learning Center and Norwich Family Resource Centers, said Norwich Public Schools will receive the 31 slots announced for the city Wednesday, and private providers will receive five slots.
The school readiness preschool classes at the Bishop Early Learning Center will receive 20 half-day slots and the Family Resource Center, which will move to the former Deborah Tennant-Zinewicz School on Case Street, will receive 11 full-day slots, DePina said.

The venue intermittently known as Desert Sky Pavilion has seen a number of sponsors come and go since opening more than 20 years ago, so let's hope this one sticks: Out with Cricket and Blockbuster and Ashley Furniture HomeStore, in with Ak-Chin Pavilion, named for and sponsored by the Ak-Chin Indian Community.
Live Nation announced the new name and the partnership at a press conference Tuesday afternoon, just in time for Ke$ha and Pitbull to get into town and yell "Hello Desert Sky Pavilion!!!" Wednesday night before being quietly corrected.

The Ak-Chin Indian Community, population 742, sits on the northern end of Pinal County. Among other things, it also operates the Harrah's Ak-Chin Casino south of Phoenix and the Ak-Chin Southern Dunes golf club.
So far the reaction seems to be, well, positive -- but wary of another change is how I'd describe it. It could definitely be worse.

I've coded a engine which is able of drawing with OpenGL ESv2 or OpenGL 3 Core Profile API. But recently the OpenGL 3 part got broken and I can't remember what I changed nor can I look in the svn commitlog, cause I did host it at bountysource which is down now and I carried it over to Google (but with broken OGL3 port).
With OpenGL ESv2 everything works fine, but with OpenGL 3 everything is stretched and mirrored horizontally. Both even use the same matrices and vertices.
Do not be confused. The OpenGL ESv2 and OpenGL 3 renderers use different ways to render it.
OpenGL ESv2 uses VBO. OpenGL 3 uses VAO and VBO.
My engine is open source, so, you can look into it here: Source Code.
These should be the important parts: Sprite Class, Base Window Class, GL3 Window Class, GL ESv2 Window Class
Here are some example pictures:
I would be really, really glad and thankful if someone would deliver me the solution to this problem and maybe I would give a small reward for it.
with a 480x800 window, gldebugger shows this matrix:

NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
Not much going on in Cubsland, but the Reds are done putting the finishing touches on their 2009 World Series team. Today, they added Cubs scraps Jacque Jones and Daryle Ward on minor league deals. They'll join Arthur Rhodes's neck, Willy Taveras at the top of the lineup (snicker) and Ramon Hernandez. This was the plan to overcome a 280 run difference and 23 games.
As for the Brewers, Ben Sheets is going to have surgery on a partially torn flexor tendon that will keep him out 4-6 months. Why don't we just just go ahead and count out 2009 in its entirety? The Brewers were counting on two draft picks from a team signing Sheets and already got screwed on a first round pick when the Yankees signed Mark Teixeira, which forced the Brewers to take the Yanks second round pick for signing Sabathia. I'm not sure of the rules on free agent compensation if Sheets doesn't sign until mid-season or possibly next offseason (but I'm sure Arizona Phil does). They also recently announced they were done for the offseason and perfectly content with a rotation of Yovani Gallardo, Dave Bush, Jeff Suppan and whomever else they can pull out of line from a brewery tour.
The Astros big moves were to add Jason Michaels, Aaron Boone and Mike Hampton and cut ties with one of their better hitters from last year - Ty Wigginton. Ed Wade, you're a sly one.
The Pirates added...fuck, who cares....
The Cardinals added some relievers and Khalil Greene. Troy Glaus is likely to miss some part of the beginning of the season after shoulder surgery in January. If Chris Carpenter is healthy and back to form, well they could be interesting. They were a pretty good offense last year, added Greene to it and tried to address some bullpen woes. Carpenter would only make them better, but his health is one helluva of an if.
So while many lament about the Cubs taking a few steps back this offseason or just treading water; (I'm in the treading water camp and when you won 97 games, that's perfectly acceptable. Also, after all these years of online chatting, I often find myself wanting to invoke parenthesis in the middle of an actual conversation with a live human being. But I fear they don't share my same addiction to chatting with anonymous online people...plus drawing parenthesis with my hands in the air looks weird) the rest of the NL Central seems to have accepted the Cubs as their dark overlords.
Also, our twitter page that I mentioned yesterday should now get automatically updated with the title of the post and a link back to the story. I also moved and added some things to the menu bar up top, should hopefully make things a little easier to find. TCR Junk Drawer is gone and has been replaced by Wiklifield and Arizona Phil's Corner. If anyone has a better name than "TCR Social" for links to our RSS info, facebook and twitter pages, I'm all ears. Finally, with the addition of an RSS feed to comments, you can now read comments from our mobile site. I'm hoping for a more functional mobile site by the end of the year, but at least it's something.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
I vote we sign Sheets in July
Very entertaining piece Rob
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
Give Sheets the Wade Miller injured pitcher of tenure currently held by Chad Fox.
Cubs stay healthy, clinch by Labor Day.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
Adding Sheets will be like making a mid-season trade?
I wonder if after the draft it will be safe to sign him without losing picks.
I am salivating at the thought of the Cubs RH hitters getting to smack balls at Tejada and Lee again. They should sign Branyan and have the worst left side defense in history.

good thing i have my "real job," but there's some grad students hurting and freaking out right now.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
I'm one of those grad students. "OHHHHHH SHIIIIIIIIIT"
Seriously. It's February and most of the people I know are still looking for jobs, and this is out of a top 35 law school. You'd think borderline top 10% people from a school like that would have offers galore. But my buddy can't even get interviews, or hell even rejection letters, he just never hears anything most times.

Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
We are a top 10 political science program and out of 12-15 people on the market so far only 4 have jobs and one a post-doc. And everyone is experiencing the same thing you are talking about - nothing, not even rejections for the most part. If they do get one it's been the "sorry, economy sucks, there is a hiring freeze, job is no longer open" type letter.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
School districts in the Southwest/South/Southeast are always looking for people. You don't even need an education degree at most of the schools, they're just taking bodies. That being said, the schools are lacking teachers because they aren't schools anyone wants to teach at. So its you're call.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
i'm in the south...NCSU...full hiring freeze and a budget freakout. state-wide issues with money and people are still unclear what the next year brings as far as available money.
i have friends in chapell hill and durham (at a private school) seeing the same issues.
tight money is one thing, but this is an all-out freakout around here.

Apparently if you apply of a job with Mcklenburg County Schools online you can see how many other applicants have applied for the job. I haven't had to do it myself, but I am hearing things like 'Lunch lady' 500 applications. 'Adminstrative assistant' 1200 applications.
However, there are still restarauts and movie theaters and the aforementioned contsruction companies hiring.

Oh don't worry, they'll have been laid off. Everyone will be required to print their own licenses at home, or even better, maybe your driver's license will just be an app on your smartphone.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
True Story: I wrote a check for my car registration. I had to re-write it because the DMV did not like the way I wrote the check. My sin? I wrote "seventy-three cents" instead of "73/100." I had to re-write the check. I was also amazed.
This is not as bad as the time I paid my car registration in cash (exact change mind you) and had to speak to the head of the DMV office. My crime? Not writing a check. I had to explain to her that the money she would not take was actually legal tender for all debts, public and private. It actually says so on the bill! I then explained that if the government would not take the money it issued (the nuances of Federalism would be beyond her) then we are all in trouble.
She took the money.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
What's a check? I can honestly say I haven't written one of those in like 5 years. I think my wife still pays some of our bills that way.

Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
so in looking at the schedule for the upcoming sale I noticed two things.
A) Sept. could be a cake walk
B) Our home series vs. the step-child team is during the week? Two 1pm games? WTF?
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
cubs take big selling games for granted and tend to book them for the day.
part of me don't blame them because they have so few night games...part of me still doesn't like it.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
but why do the Sox get a weekend and we get Wed @ 1pm. Hardly seems like a fair split by MLB. Lately its always been back to back weekends. Why the change?
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
Actually, the last couple of years, the weekends have been spread out by a month.
It makes sense to me. Might as well take your three highest-demand games other than Opening Day and put them in the middle of the week. Not like it's gonna hurt turnout.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
It seems to me like the Astros and Cardinals have the best chance to hang with us. Brewers and Reds need everything to break right.
Another interesting factor is the high-priced guys on noncontenders. I was reading somewhere that due to the economy, poor-performing teams should be more likely than ever to want to dump players if they know they're not in it this year. That could mean Cub-compatible names like Roy Halladay, Miguel Tejada, Brian Roberts or others. I hear there's some guy in San Diego, too.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
I don't think either of those teams (Astros or Cardinals) have the pitching. I think they have the best chance, but we're still SIGNIFICANTLY ahead of all those teams on paper.
Houston will obviously run Oswalt out on Opening Day, but then they'll follow that with the likes of career 4.79 Wandy Rodriguez (who is admittedly coming off of a nice year), Brandon Backe, and they hope Mike Hampton. They're going to struggle getting to Valverde again, and may be worse, since they've added LaTroy into the mix with Geary and Brocail.
The Cards have Wainwright, then Lohse, Wellemeyer, and Piniero, which just isn't any good. Carpenter maybe, but it doesn't sound particularly optimistic. They've also got a 23 year old kid whose in his second year in the show closing games.
I like our situation considerably more than anyone else in this division. It's just not any good.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
Well yeah, but this team is also outspending everyone. I just don't think the Cubs will run away with it like the 2008 Angels did, even if it looks that way on paper. I can even picture a scenario where this team is fifth in the Central in runs scored (not a probable one, of course). Yes, our pitching looks better, but I'd be surprised if we clinched before Game 155.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
Alright, I'll bite.
Describe to me the scenario where the Cubs score 100 runs less, the Cardinals get the same production out of Ludwick and Ankiel, and the Brewers score 6 runs more, the Pirates score 21 runs more, and the Assholes score 44 runs more. I am going to rule the possiblilty of the Dunn less, but Jackie Jones added Reds making up 152 runs (approximately 1 per game) on the Cubs in 2009.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
Complacency has clearly set in at TCR and in the media -- hope the players haven't taken the same approach.

The season hasn't even started yet. Don't start writing checks you might not be able to cash later. The Reds may be better than you think. Let's just see how Dusty continues to handle the young 'ins. Curses or not, we gotta watch our backs.

Well he didn't leave a mark so its not that bad.
Fuck that.
He choked her.
Her brother tackled him to separate him.
He cooled off by shooting his gun in the garage.
I don't have to like him on the team I follow.
And you are others are free to not give a shit about his personal misgivings if you so choose as well.
Sure, no marks and some inconsistencies in the witness's statements. But firing your gun into garage wall immediately after an argument and punching out your car window is still threatening and out of control behavior. There was certainly enough for MLB to think it warranted a 30-game suspension.
I'd prefer they be flexible with the closing situation depending on matchups. You're not really adding a lefty reliever if you use him strictly as a closer.
Stockpiling young talent isn't only for trading for someone like Chapman though. Even with an elite closer winning the World Series is basically a crap shoot so the key is to get to the playoffs as much as possible and not just mortgage everything on one year. Once you get there an elite bullpen certainly helps but the playoffs can be won by one hitter or starting pitcher getting hot (Murphy, Molina, Baumgardner) and a closer might not be able to stop that.
I'm also not crazy about press convictions. As the police report noted, there were no marks on the lady in question. There's a TMZ link (of course) to her police pictures, as well.
I think the only way this trade goes real bad is if Cubbery intervenes and Chapman is suddenly bad for some reason.
I am right there with you closing in on 60.
I don't care that much about "mortgaging" one player who is not only blocked by two guys, but is not ready to hit the majors for at least a couple years.
There is no reason why this team, this year, can't have a real shot at something NONE of us have experienced.
Further, I don't feel that even if they fall short that they have ruined their farm system.
I have made my opinion clear here, with others, Warren was shit on the Cubs save one spot start.
Trading for Warren, Warren sucking, getting Warren back for Chapman plus 3 prospects, sounds like Revenge of The Yankees on the former Boston executive. Old rivalries never die.
I pray to the heavens above Chapman doesn't suck for some reason, or he'll be booed out of town faster than a Todd Hundley revival meeting.
I'm kind of nostalgic for the Schwarber-for-Miller rumors.
This offseason, after some ridiculous playoff run and Chapman saving every game from here until the end of the postseason striking out 27/9innings, I welcome anyone to quote this thread and call me a dummy: I hate this trade, and my hate is 2 parts Chapman makes this team less likeable and 1 part that's a ridiculous overpay for 30 regular season innings and, at tops, 10 postseason innings. Already hoping they don't extend him.
btw...Thanks AZ Phil. I'm really enjoying your take on this trade.
I'm a bit disappointed on the Warren experience. Essentially they gave Castro away for crickets (OK, well they signed Zobrist with the Castro salary dump). Otherwise one might look at it as Chapman for Castro and our #1 minors prospect (Torres) + McKinney/Crawford. Seems pricey for a 2 month rental. We will see if this price tag is that steep in a relative way based on the remaining deadline deals for relievers.
Yep. One of the great things about this team (in addition to being really good at baseball) was the "likable" factor. Feels a bit different now. Who knows...maybe Chapman will be the king of the dance parties.
Here are some possible corresponding minor league moves we might see in the aftermath of the Chapman trade:
SOUTH BEND to MYRTLE BEACH: OF Donnie Dewees and INF Bryant Flete
EUGENE to SOUTH BEND: OF Robert Garcia and INF Vimael Machin
There is really no reason to replace Billy McKinney at Tennessee because both Chris Coghlan and Jorge Soler are doing their rehab at Tennessee.
And there are plenty of pitchers at Iowa. No need to replace Warren at AAA. .
I am 70 years old. The Cubs last played in the World Series in 1945. I was born in 1946. I hate to lose a prospect like Torres, but when the opportunity is there to get that World Series ring, you go for it. This was the idea in stock piling all this young talent. I would like to see Reddick added now and the Cubbies should be done.
I would expect Richard to accept an optional assignment because based on how he's played this season, there is a decent chance that he won't find work elsewhere. Rather stay and potentially get a ring. Same goes for Coghlan since he's struggled mightily this year.
Edwards should not go down. He's pitched very well and Maddon is very impressed with him. I would expect Grimm to go down for Cahill so he can get back on track (he's pitched better in July, but he's not getting enough appearances).
chitownmvp01: Indeed Clayton Richard would seem to be odd man out once Chapman reports, but Richard might accept a minor league assignment if he is promised a return to Chicago on 9/1 when MLB Active List rosters expand (Richard has minor league ioptions left).

Tips For Teaching Kids Moderation with CandyHealthy Living
It seems like candy is everywhere all the time anymore – it doesn't seem to matter the time of year!
Our culture is completely saturated with candy and sweets. You simply cannot get away from it. Every checkout line has a big candy assortment to choose from – even office supply and healthfood stores which is a strong indication that impulse buying of sweet snacks is very popular with most people.
Most children eat candy every single day, and sadly, it is even used as a reward in many classrooms or by parents themselves for good behavior or academic performance even if a child is clearly struggling with weight issues.
I feel that one of the most difficult things to teach children is moderation when it comes to their sweet consumption. An occasional piece of candy is fine – eating it as a habit is most definitely not.
My policy in our house is simply not to buy candy. We don't have any candy laying around in our house as a general rule, although I do let my children have a small organic lollipop on the ride home from school some days.
Sometimes, I get so exasperated with how much candy is everywhere that I want to just keep my children home and never let them go out. What particularly irks me is when another adult gives my children candy without asking me.
How rude is that?
Some days, don't you just want to throw up your hands and lock your kids away or move to a closed community and live with only likeminded folks to get away from the sugar madness?
But, that doesn't work either. That is a surefire recipe for rebellion and a child who has no control over their sugar impulses. The hard road is to continue to model moderation for them and let them have a bit of candy now and again and talk to them about how overindulging will lead to weight problems and worse in the years ahead.
I think of my own parents growing up. They had an unlocked cabinet of various alcoholic beverages for special occasions or for when company might come to dinner. Not one of their seven children ever broke their trust and as much as touched let alone drank some of that alcohol. We were also always allowed to have a sip or two of whatever Mom or Dad was drinking on New Year's Eve or whatever special occasion brought out the bubbly.
Not one of us today has an alcohol problem which I think is pretty incredible. My parents successfully modeled moderation and for that, I am very grateful.
I think using alcohol as an example is important because sugar turns to alcohol in the body. So, a child that grows up eating too much sugar can end up with an the same sorts of health issues as an alcoholic even if he/she never drinks a drop!
As a Mom who has been struggling to teach my kids the dangers of candy without being an ogre about it for many years, I wanted to pass along the story of how each of my children reacted to their school Easter Egg Hunt last week.
Of course, any Easter Egg Hunt is going to be loaded with candy and it is a good opportunity to teach children moderation and how to enjoy an activity without going overboard.
My oldest son who is a teenager, ate absolutely no candy at all. He had no interest in having any and the pieces he got, he either gave away or tossed in the trash.
My middle child, who is three years younger, ate two pieces of candy and then dumped the rest in the trash.
My youngest child, three years younger than the middle child, ate a bunch of the candy at school and brought the rest of the candy home where she promptly dumped it in the trash after asking if she could keep 2 special pieces (which I said "yes" too).
It is important to note that my oldest child would have eaten a ton of candy when he was the age of my youngest child. But, over the years, he has learned moderation more and more and now doesn't want any at all (most of the time – not always).
My middle child had a really hard time saying no to candy if it was offered at school or a party just a couple of years ago. Now, he is exercising great restraint and is demonstrating excellent moderation skills. I know my youngest will be the same. In another few years, she will be able to moderate herself just as well as her older siblings.
I guess the bottom line of this story is that it takes kids years to learn moderation in their candy habits especially when it is everywhere and most of their friends are pretty much eating it constantly so there is continuous temptation. Teaching kids moderation with candy is clearly harder today than it used to be!
Learning to say no to candy is a process and just because a younger child has trouble with moderation today doesn't mean this will be the case during the teenage years.
Stay on it, Moms and Dads! Don't give up as I've seen others do and just let your kids go wild with the sweets because it's just too hard to stay on the moderation path 24/7. Your efforts will bear fruit at a later time even if you are not necessarily seeing it today.

Pingback: Teach Your Children Moderation on Halloween | USA Community Guides
I try very hard to minimize sweets, with varying success. Fortunately my daughter learned early on that if she ate too much sugar in a day, she had an upset stomach at night. We stash candy from holidays in a cupboard and it is doled out a little at a time…and only after the "grow food" has been eaten. There's usually a good bit to toss out several months later. After Halloween, I set aside most of the candy and we use it to decorate gingerbread houses for Christmas (we don't eat the gingerbread houses– to do it properly, the gingerbread needs to be a bit overcooked and after a week or more sitting out, it's pretty stale). I love using candy this way– it's not "wasted" but it's not eaten, either!
Sarah, I think you've hit the moderation point spot-on and the parallel with alcohol consumption is excellent. In my family, alcohol was handled very similarly, and with similarly good results in that we learned to enjoy occasional drinks but not to excess and weren't tempted to rebel.
No kidding about candy being used inappropriately as a prize in schools, etc.! It amazes me how many people who have a responsibility to know better don't seem to notice or care about overconsumption of candy (and of course juice, soda, etc.). Out of all the possible ways to incentivize…even if you aren't willing to get creative or thoughtful, just take the quarters that you would have spent on candy and give out those instead.
A little girl I know who has type I diabetes used to go to a camp for juvenile diabetics that – no kidding – gave out candy bars as a prize for exercising enough to lower insulin needs! I don't know whether these were regular sugary candy bars or artificially sweetened "diabetic-friendly" ones, but either one is inexcusable. I only found this out because she has always been very athletic, so she couldn't feasibly increase her exercise, so being a little kid systematically tempted by adults in charge of her welfare to want this candy badly, she gave herself a few extra clicks of insulin. She nearly died as a result and had to be rushed via ambulance to a hospital.
Oh, and instead of changing the perverse policy of bribing diabetic kids with candy, the camp just barred her from coming back again.
Birthday parties are driving me crazy, my oldest is 6, he knows about the parties (yes, I was going to say he couldn't go if he never mentioned it…). Cake and loot bags. Four parties in the last 3 weeks, no wonder we are all sick with the flu… I keep no visible candy in the house (I admit I do sneak it when they are in bed). Their treats now are one teeny tiny xylitol candy, but they are getting a few eggs for Easter, the mini dark chocolate Lindt kind, at least I tried to keep them small
Well I feel sorry for my grandson when ever there's a party he's the only one staring at others kid's eating candy on Easter to tell the true I'm 64. Years now never Hurd of somebody dying for eating candy I think it's OK to eat a candy once in a while but none at all in my opinion I think it's more punishment than good
My son never had almost no sugar until he was about 5 years old, except from my parents who think giving children sugar and processed foods is okay. Even back then, I wasn't as aware of the dangers of processed foods and grains, and I still was very careful not to give him foods with sugar in them. It wasn't until he was over 5 that I started realizing the importance of traditional foods, but he was born with gut issues because I had them before he was born. Although my husband largely agrees with much of my philosophy on nutrition, I was never able to get him on board for doing GAPS for our son (he thinks it's too extreme), so he's still got gut issues. But, he's still much better off than many children I know who eat garbage, processed foods, and a lot of refined sugar around him. He eats a lot of grass-fed meats, poultry, and eggs, raw milk, butter, cream, grass-fed cheese, lard, tallow, fish eggs, seafood, and some organ meats.
Most of his friends are incredibly picky eaters, and I have a really hard time getting them to eat when they come over. He's got one friend who is a good eater, but the rest of them – and there's 5 of them I can think of – will really only eat bread and carbs, and of course, sugar. One of his friends, a girl who is 11, only likes a few foods: fruit, cheese, peanut butter and jelly, and macaroni and cheese, oh…and bread. She won't eat any meat and I don't think she likes eggs. She won't even eat tomato sauce. And what's odd is that she's one of the brightest children in my son's class, but she does have an endless array of health issues.
Because I'm a sugar addict (read "alcoholic"), I've tried to teach my kids moderation. Due to all the places it's offered, we have a rule of 2 per week (usually the size of dum-dums). That way, they can say "yes" at church and 1 other day, but only if they actually like what they're offered. Lately, they've only been having about 1 per week. I didn't want to teach them never to have it so they overindulge as adults; nor did I want to let them have what they wanted freely (my oldest doesn't have a sweet tooth; while my 2 youngers are like me). I love that they learn to only accept what they like and not any candy they're offered. They are currently 9, 10 & 11 and doing quite well with the moderation. We've been doing this for about 3 years now.
My son is doing holiday club this week. I have to include a pack lunch. I decided on Monday to "treat" him to an organic fruit yoghurt pot instead of our usual home made natural yoghurt and apple sauce/ fresh fruit. Also sent him with a bag of crisps and a small snack size chocolate bar (65cals per bar – it was tiny!), as well as his usual lunch.
On Monday night he was downstairs at 10pm with a sore tummy…… lesson well learnt!
Since then i have given him only our usual "real" food and he has been fine. Today he was offered some boiled sweets and he said "No thank you, I don't want to upset my tummy again today" He has autism. I was so proud of him!
where are the tips?
My kids have such bad nut and peanut allergies that candy is completely out for us. This is both a blessing and a curse. They never get any candy and they don't care, but I have huge worries all the time about strangers trying to give them candy. It's maddening! We actually had to sort of candy-proof our first son when he was 2. We played a game with him, pretending to be a stranger offering candy, cookies, other things he knew he couldn't have, and he got to answer, "No, thanks!" It worked. He has never accepted food from a stranger and he's 10 now. He knows how bad his allergies are and which people are his safe food-givers.
My baby wouldn't eat any solids until she was about 14 months. I just nursed her often and tried not to worry about it. I think she instinctively knew when she was ready. She is now almost 2 and still nurses but is also a good eater. She is healthy, robust and beautiful plus she rarely gets sick!
Also, I have a 7th old who is in public school for the first time and, WOW he is around so much sugar! He's very sensitive to sugar and artificial coloring so hasn't been exposed to much of it until now. He's REALLY GREAT about saying no or only having a little bit. We've had many discussions about the health consequences and the way it makes him feel and act. Now he is asking why all the other parents let their kids have so much when it is so bad for us. Any suggestions?
I'm almost done.;) For Easter, we fill plastic eggs with little toys, crispy nuts and dried fruit. They do get 3 pieces of really good dark chocolate and a few organic lollipops and we have a huge egg hunt, play some fun games and get together with family.
I don't buy candy. We never had it growing up – well, very very rarely. My parents bought chocolate: plain, with raisins, nuts, etc. We were allowed a square or two after dinner, that's it. Now that I'm a mom I pretty much stick to the same rule: only chocolate, few cookies and such. No candy. My older son (2nd grade) is around so much of it at school!! He usually brings all of it home and I allow him to keep some of it – mostly chocolate – and we chuck the rest. A few days ago he tried some chewing gum he got at school and the smell was so sickening I couldn't stand it in the car!!! Sooo nasty…. He knows artificial colors and flavors are bad so he's okay with not eating them.
Thanks Magda! I really like that rule! Only chocolate. . . I think I will try to convince my in-laws to only give my kids chocolate since they insist on loading them up with candy all the time.
Thanks for this post Sarah, I agree, we need to teach our kids moderation with candy/sweets.
I have the hardest time keeping candy out of our home and away from the kids. My husband buys and eats a lot of it and his parents love to spoil my children with it–especially grandpa…he loads my 9 year old step-daughter up with it every time he sees her, and she has ADD really bad and candy seems to make it a lot worse! My baby is only 7 months old and grandpa already can't wait to load him up on candy. I want to keep him away from sweets as long as possible but I'm afraid it will be quite difficult with grandma and grandpa around (they live just down the street). I also hate it when people give my kids candy without my consent. My father-in-law even tells the kids that candy is good for them and he has even told my 9 yr old in front of me, "It's ok, you can have some, don't listen to your mom." Boy, was I ever upset about that! (Sorry, had to vent for a second!)

I grew up never having white sugar until I was probably about 8 years old or so. I would go to birthday parties and ask if the ice cream had sugar in it. After incredulous looks, the parents would tell me that yes, it did. Then I would tell them I wouldn't like any. In my teens, I often indulged in junk food & sugar (although we didn't have it often at home).
My dad was a perfect example of self control, and moderation with sweets. Every so often, he'd have a health food chocolate bar in a cupboard and every week or so, he'd cut off a little silver of it to eat. (Wow! Such self control) Although I strayed from eating whole foods, I slowly returned to it after I married and had children. After my seventh baby was born, I set a New Year's Resolution to stay off refined sugar for a year, and I've never gone back to eating it (7 years now!)
My point of sharing this is that your children will usually return to the way they were raised. Just keep up the good work! My parents had gotten a little lax when they raised my youngest sister, and I'd say that she eats more junk food than the rest of us (although her roommates at college were always amazed at how healthy she ate.)
It is hard for me to see how much sugar my children get everywhere they go. I wish I had been able to teach them to always make good food choices. However, my oldest daughter just set a goal on her own to go off sugar for at least a month though, so I know she understands.
My daughter comes home from dance class almost every week with candy! They also encourage bringing treats to share the week of Halloween, Christmas, Valentines, etc. It drives me crazy! My son also gets candy every week when he deposits money into his savings account at school. I stopped sending money.
I wish my parents had taught me moderation growing up! Nope, as a now 20-something year old I have to teach myself how to avoid sugar. Its been a challenge but I've learned a lot along the way.
This is a great post. Teaching moderation with sweets not only improves health, it also lays groundwork for moderation in other areas. Our family eats some sweets, carefully chosen. And we teach about the need for healthy eating habits, pointing out the consequences of indulgence. Even now, my 4yo saves late-evening candy prizes for the next day, and the older children show some degrees of moderation regularly. We're getting there! Thanks for the encouragement!
Sarah, TheHealthyHomeEconomist
Yes! Excellent point Kim. Moderation is key. You can overeat on good food and still get fat of course. Although, as my Mom is fond of saying, "all things in moderation, including moderation" which means splurging and indulging once in awhile is ok too
I like your mom's saying@
That was supposed to be an exclamation point. My son was asking me a question when I hit enter without looking : ).
Sadlly, this is not a new problem. I was born in the mid 1950's and I remember going to the grocery store with my Mom and seeing candy at the checkout counter. In fact, back then they didn't have it in the aisles at all, just behind the checkout counter and the lady had to hand it to you. It was almost like buying cigarettes – too bad it still isn't that way. Do you suppose it was kept there because they knew it was something people would be more likely to steal? Or maybe because the price of sugar was high back then, too? One thing I can say for 1950's candy is that at least it was made with real sugar, not this manufactured fake sugar junk used today that is highly toxic.
I also remember my Mom occasionally letting me have one (ONE) piece of candy and boy was it hard to choose. My favorite back then was a round, aqua colored bubble gum with sugar all over the outside and it was called a Sputnik. It was hollow inside so there was little actual gum involved. Still, the lesson for me was that I had to choose only one piece. Kids today have a no limits frame of mind. They don't understand discipline in any form because no one is actually allowed to discipline them, without fear of going to jail or worse. Doncha love progress?
Even at my sons preschool they give candies as a reward for good behavior. I HATE that! I said my 4 year old will not have candy! I sent pretty little decorated bags with dehydrated fruits for him to have when the other kids are given candy. I hope I'm not causing him problems, bu I feel likea preschooler is too young to know how to exercise moderation, although we do talk through these things and I let him have opportunities to try cake, etc at birthday parties.
Also, my son gets cold sores in his mouth when he has too much sugar, even natural sugar. This is very painful for him and then his appetite is poor for the next week, so that's why I'm even more militant about him not having candy.
Something neat happened. This week his preschool is having an Easter Egg Hunt. His teachers sent home a note asking that each parent send 15 egg with their child's name on them. The parents are supposed to fill the eggs with what they would like their child to eat. I am really grateful to the teachers for their creativity in accomodating our family's desire for healthy eating. I plan to fill his eggs with raisins and home dehydrated fruit, "dough balls" made with carob, honey, coconut, nut, and coconut oil. Probably some scripture verses an I love you note and stickers and other prizes too.
I think it's so important that health conscious parents like us take an active role to influence our schools and community.
My kids are doing better but we are not near the point where your's are! We are getting closer one step at a time. My husband has been a big time junk food eater. He has come so far from where he was. Side question if I may…I have an almost 7 month old who is not doing well with adjusting to foods. I tried giving her homemade applesauce that was about 50% applesauce and 50% water. I gave her mostly liquid with a tad bit of apple. She just keeps coughing on it and trying to spit it out. She LOVES egg yolk. Should I be concerned about her not getting enough food or is nursing, egg yolk, and just keep trying the baby type of food okay? At what point does it become a concern? Thank you!
Thank you! I will poke around more on Sarah's website.
My 14 month old just finally accepted food for the first time last month. We offered food first at 5.5 months, and tried often even though she never took to it- until 13 months. Finally! Up until 13 months she was exclusively breast fed and completely healthy and growing well. You don't need to worry about your baby getting enough, as long as you nurse her often. It's great that she loves egg yolk!
What does your family do for Easter so there isn't a huge influx of candy? (if you don't mind me asking)
We fill our Easter celebration with some great family traditions and avoid all the candy parties. We explain the real meaning of Easter and why we choose to celebrate the way we do. The kids are always happy to join us. We have five boys, ages 2 to 10.
Here in Sweden we used to have a tradition that we only ate candy on Saturdays. Usually that's what I got. But obviously nowadays things have changed even here. I have a 5 year old who I have noticed reaaaally gets affected by sugar so we try to avoid giving him any at all. I used to do the Saturday treat thing with him where he got something tiny on a Saturday. We then changed this and bought 86% chocolate. I would give him a tiny piece each day after his breakfast which was so much better and he thought it was better because he got "candy" everyday. But even that only happens occasionally now. I do try to teach him that even if his friends eat a lot of candy that he shouldn't and he does listen, even though of course he'll eat some if offered by someone else.
Oh and by the way, I completely agree about how rude it is to offer a child candy without checking with you first! I hate that! I had an experience a couple of years ago where one of my son's primary teachers at church in England was giving out those huge pixie stick things and asked me if he could have one in front of him and in front of all the other kids!! What was I supposed to say!? That night he may as well have been on speed! It was so scary to watch. He couldn't sleep and just lay in my arms staring… it was awful! I can proudly say though that my son rarely gets sick and is very healthy and strong, so it's nice to know that despite all my many weaknesses I'm doing something right.
Sarah, TheHealthyHomeEconomist
Yes, sugar makes you drunk in a way like alcohol does. I wish some preachers would take up that subject instead of harping on alcohol all the time .. what about all the teetotalers in the congregation who are addicted to sugar? Very similar thing physiologically speaking. I just have to laugh to myself when I hear one of those sermons.
We did 3 "no added sugar days" with my 7 years old. When to the store an read the labels so we buy thing only without added sugar. While we were there, he realized how hard to find food with no added sugar. He likes sweets but aware of the danger of it. He gets a little chocolates after lunch, if he eats enough.
My motto is to teach the kids as soon as you can about the healthy choices. They are open and willing to learn!
Sarah, TheHealthyHomeEconomist
I would also add that it is REALLY hard if kids go to school as the candy is EVERYWHERE and the kids are eating it all the time.
Sarah, TheHealthyHomeEconomist
Children eating well at home is the main thing. You can't shield them from every single sugar incident as they are growing up and shouldn't try as these are good teaching opportunities. If they are healthy and feel great and then notice how eating sugar makes them feel rotten, they will learn to simply avoid it. When puberty hits, they will also notice how the kids who eat a lot of sugar have weight and skin issues too which they would want to avoid.
It's my opinion that adults should stay away from comparing any particular food consumption to phyisical issues with peers. The goal is to teach them how to truly love and care for their own bodies. Many young people have weight and skin issues with no obvious connection to their diet yet (when I was in middle school it was the thin glowing soccer playing girls who had the wickedest candy stash). I am a teacher at early childhood program that serves only properly prepared traditional foods and I have been sad to notice that the children who come from families who cook this way at home are the most likely to say things like, "You can only play with me if you don't eat candy because people who eat candy are gross!" or "I don't like you because you are fat". These are direct quotes and no these children's families are all lovely and kind and would never say things like this directly about people but the idea seeps in none the less.
Yes, this. Connect eating habits with health, not weight. Don't give children a reason to look down on peers who are overweight or even just chubby. Not every kid is naturally a string bean.
Tonya Scarborough
We did a sugar fast together and talked about how one of the goals was to strengthen our immune system. While we were on it, the stomach flu went around and for the first time ever, only 1 of my kids got it. This remains a powerful incentive to them.
Also, a neighbor gave them jellybeans recently and we saved them for a special occasion. My 4 yo said that they gave him a stomachache and my oldest hardly ate any. A few years ago they would have all eaten them right up on the spot without a complaint. I think that when sugar is taken out of the diet, they're given the chance to notice how bad it truly makes them feel when they eat it.
Stanley Fishman
I find the example of your children to be so inspiring! Even moderate amounts of sugar soaked candy can do great harm to so many of the systems to the body, and that is magnified in children, who are still developing.
We knew a little boy who did not like to try new foods. His parents got him to try all kinds of real , traditional foods, but they never introduced him to candy. The boy just graduated with a perfect GPA from a major university. He never missed a single class in his entire academic life. He has perfect teeth, and is so healthy that he has almost never seen a doctor, after his parents discontinued the worthless "well baby visits" so beloved by pediatricians and vaccine companies. Hi is tall, powerful, charming, friendly, and a very nice young man. He has yet to taste a piece of candy. Of course, many other factors played a part in how he turned out, but his parents are firm believers that the lack of candy and sugary foods was a very important component.
We try to really limit the amount of candy our kids have. Sometimes it's harder than others. My husband eats a ton of it; I refuse to buy any. We talk to our oldest (almost 7) about moderation and how important it is. For halloween and easter, we'll keep a few pieces out and put the rest in the freezer. The little bit we have usually lasts all year long, with my husband eating the bulk. One thing that has helped me drastically cut my candy consumption is to only buy organic chocolate–it's pricey, so one small bar (Dagoba) usually lasts a week or more in my desk at work, so I end up eating less.

Join us on Tuesday evening for a free concert of at St. James Cathedral. Fifth House Ensemble will be performing pieces by Khachaturian and Bartok for violin, clarinet, and piano. Please join us at 5:15pm for food and drink.
Performance: great - a trio that sounded like more than a trio.
Khachaturian - both a pop and serious composer, part pictures and landscapes, part dissonance.
Bartok - loved the story of the piece, loved the double tuning of the instruments.
some fun gypsy-ish-ness in both composers.
