Ship Weight:1.60 Servings:15 Once Again - Organic Lightly Toasted Almond Butter Creamy - 16 oz. (454g)Once Again Organic Lightly Toasted Almond Butter Creamy uses only the finest organic almonds available. Lightly Toasted Organic Unblanched Almonds are milled smooth to create their Lightly Toasted Almond Butter. This is a gluten free product. Gluten free Vegan Kosher Certified product Sodium Free Organic OTCO Frequently Asked QuestionsAny thought of producing a raw tahini?No, there are way too many risks that they are not willing take while producing this product. Example is Salmonella. Are the sesame seeds hulled? How is this done?Their sesame seeds are hulled, which means that the shells are taken off. The hulls are taken off in a processing plant and are mechanically hulled as opposed to a brine water process. Are their products Gluten Free?Yes Are their sesame seeds roasted with oils?They do not roast their sesame seeds with oil. Do they test for Aflatoxin?Aflatoxin is a chemical created by mold. Some molds are beneficial; such as penicillin. Some molds make food have a wonderful taste such as cheese; and some molds can be dangerous i.e. the aflatoxin mold. Cooking does not destroy aflatoxin. Aflatoxin can occur in peanuts, nuts, dried fruit, corn, and other grains. Only peanuts are tested multiple times by the USDA. Samples are drawn and tested by the FDA at harvest and again after shelling. Peanuts and peanut butter are perhaps the safest of foods to consume if you are concerned about aflatoxin. They make sure that all of their peanuts are tested for aflatoxin before they purchase them. But they don't just rely on that data alone; they also test their peanut butter for aflatoxin after it is produced. Do their suppliers use any pesticides, sprays, or solutions of any kind on their almonds?They buy their almonds from the shellers which buy the almonds from hundreds of growers. Therefore if you are concerned about pesticides, they recommend that you buy Organic Almond Butter. Do The flowers that the Bees use for their honey have pesticides sprayed on them?All honeys in the USA with the exception of Hawaii, are now natural, there are no more certified organic honeys in the USA. This is because bees fly within a 5 mile radius of the hives and pesticides are used on neighboring crops and fields that bees pollinate. Therefore, their natural local honeys are not organic. Their organic honeys are from Central and South American rain forests where pesticides are not an issue. How are their almonds pasteurized?All USA almonds must be pasteurized according to the FDA. A flash/steam pasteurization process is utilized. How do you read the date on the honey jars?It is in reverse Julian code, printed on the lid. First is letter which is year produced then is number which if read backwards is day of year. How long is my honey good for?They give honey a 2 year shelf life. How much Magnesium is in their almond butter?86.93mg per serving How much potassium is in the natural almond butter?Potassium = 226.75mg Per Serving If there are not preservatives in their products how do they stay fresh?Their jars are sealed properly and they use very high quality ingredients. Is the salt they use Iodized?Yes What are the benefits of raw almond butter?aw almond butter has a sweeter milder taste than roasted almond butter. There are opinions that raw foods are believed to be higher in nutrient density due to less exposure to heat thus reducing a foods nutrient value. However, they believe the main difference is in the flavor only. What are the ingredients in their nut butters?Their recipes are surprisingly simple, most of their nut butters contain just one ingredient, nuts. However, in the case of cashew butter, they add a small amount of organic sunflower or safflower oil to the cashew butter to make it spreadable. The organic cashew has organic sunflower oil added. The Organic American Classic Peanut Butter has salt, sugar, and organic palm fruit oil added to the organic peanuts. The Organic Sunflower Butter has salt and sugar added to the organic sunflower seeds. They do make a salt and sugar free version. Otherwise, they just use ground nuts or seeds to make their butters. They only use what is clearly stated on each of the products' ingredient label. What do you do if the honey is crystallized?Place honey jar in warm water. What does it mean traces of other nuts?In the last 20 years or so, the incidence of food allergies has increased significantly. While they do a really good job of making sure their products are separated, there is still a small risk of cross contamination; therefore, they recommend that any person with a health threatening allergy avoid their nut butter products. What is the amount of sugar in one serving of their Sunflower Butter?2.51g Per serving. = 6% What is the difference between Organic and Natural?The term "natural" has no clear definition but often is used when simple easily understood ingredients are combined to create a recipe. Organic foods have been certified that no pesticides were used in the process. The term "organic" when applied to food can only be used if the food meets all the requirements of the Organic Food Act that was passed by Congress in the early 90's. Organic covers all aspects of growing a crop including the use of compost, natural fertilizers, and synthetic fertilizers. Restriction in the use of non-approved chemicals is part of the required routine. Processing facilities such as theirs must keep organic ingredients in a storage area that does not have chemicals or other pesticides. Certification of farms and processors is required at least once a year or more.What is the sodium content per serving of Sunflower Butter?87.91mg What products are Kosher certified and by whom?All of their products are Kosher certified by the Va'ad Hakashrus of Buffalo, NY What type of sugar is used in their Org. Sunflower butter?Organic Sugar CaneWhen did they start putting sugar in the sunflower butter?The product has always contained sugar and salt, they do make a sugar and salt free version. Where are their products sourced from? Organic Peanuts from Argentina, New Mexico and Texas. Natural Peanuts from Virginia and North Carolina. They do not import any peanuts from China! Organic Almonds from 90% California and 10% Italy. Natural Almonds from California and are pasteurized. Organic and Natural Sesame Seeds from grower co-ops in Nicaragua. Organic Cashews from Brazil, Vietnam and Cambodia. Flaxseed: North America Natural Cashews from Brazil and Vietnam. Honey from Wildflower and Clover are sourced locally. Organic Killer Bee and Rain Flower Honey are sourced from Brazil Organic Jubilee is sourced from Nicaragua Why doesn't their honey have a safety seal?Due to customer demand, they hope to change this in the near future. Why is the almond butter runny?The moisture level of the almonds are to low. Since the pasturizing law came into effect it has changed the makeup of the almonds and has made the drying process more difficult. There is nothing wrong with the product. Why is there oil at the top of the jar?Oil separation is a natural occurrence. Peanuts, cashews, almonds, sesame seeds, and sunflower seeds all have oil separation that may occur after they are ground into butter. All of these nut/seeds contain from 50% to 60% naturally occurring oil. The oil is lighter than the ground nuts or seeds so the oil floats to the top. The national brand peanut butters do not separate because they use hydrogenated oil to stop separation. All hydrogenated oil contains trans-fats. If the actual level of trans-fats is below .50 the product label may read zero trans-fats. Specifically, the rule for trans fats are less than 0.50 may be declared as zero on the product label. What this means is that their typical nut butter product may declare zero trans fats, but actually contains up to and including .49 trans fats. Once Again Nut Butters have no trans fats, whatsoever, so enjoy! Their organic peanut butter no longer has peanut skins in it. Why?There was a crop shortage of Valencia peanuts which is what they were previously making their organic peanut butter with. They hope to be able to source Valencia peanuts again in the future. Glass PackagingA better package, made better for the environment, can only be the right way. Once Again packages all nut butters in glass. They utilize recycled glass to maintain a small environmental footprint. Glass is the only packaging material that the US Food and Drug Administration deems, "Generally Recognized as Safe." Glass is largely inert, and therefore, neither gives off chemicals to the packages' contents, nor absorbs chemicals from those contents. Glass packaging's excellent barrier properties not only keep external contaminants, including odors, away from the product, but also prevent oxygen from entering and causing spoilage. So their nut butters have a longer shelf life and require no preservatives, which is a good thing. Their glass jars may be recycled. When recycled, a glass jar may be melted down and reformed into another glass container, over and over again, through recycling. Recycled glass is not limited in the number of its useful life cycles; nor does it have to be "down-cycled" - that is, recycled only into lower-value products as some other packaging materials must, such as paper or plastics. Glass, which uses much less energy than other packaging materials, retains a significant portion of the energy used to make it the first time and is easier and less energy-intensive to re-melt and reform: when you recycle one glass bottle you save enough energy to power a 100-watt light bulb for four hours (or, if you are truly active in conserving energy, a 11-watt compact fluorescent bulb for a day and a half). More than 50% of each container they use is from glass that has been recycled. Their containers meet the highest standards in the US for post-consumer recycled content as set by California, Florida and Oregon. The materials in their glass jars are made of primarily sand, limestone and soda ash-are themselves earth-friendly and slag and other significant solid waste by-products are not produced when the jars were made. Their glass supplier does not use brick containing chrome or heavy metals in the construction of the furnace block that holds the glass while it is being melted (2800 degrees Fahrenheit). Even though those furnaces would last longer, chrome-bearing brick, when thrown away must be sent to and handled in special hazardous disposal facilities, and so, their supplier has chosen to be environmentally friendly. Their furnaces do not use air, as most glass furnaces around the world do. Air is almost 80% nitrogen. Using air to burn fuels at the high temperatures in which glass furnaces operate, converts some of that nitrogen to nitrogen oxide, or NOx, which, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is "one of the main ingredients involved in the formation of ground-level ozone. It can trigger serious respiratory problems, contributes to the formation of acid rain and to nutrient overload, deteriorating water quality. This contributes to atmospheric particles that cause visibility impairment, most noticeably in national parks. There, it reacts to form toxic chemicals and contributes to global warming. So, their supplier uses a mixture that is over 90% oxygen, injects it with natural gas - which is much cleaner than oil - into the glass furnace and thus produces far less NOx, than if air is used. Is this a more expensive way to produce their glass jars? Yes. Could they get glass somewhere else where there are lower or no political or monetary consequences of pollution? Yes. They could have, but have decided to take the higher road. A better package, made better for the environment, can only be the right way. AllergensThey manufacture peanuts, almonds, cashews, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, and soy products here at OANB. They have dedicated equipment, and areas to segregate these commodities as much as possible, but there is still a possibility of cross-contamination. Therefore, they suggest that it is better to be safe than sorry when it comes to allergens. About: Safe Quality Foods (SQF) 2000 Level 3 Certification.

Once Again Nut Butter is a brand you can trust, they spread integrity. About Once AgainFoundersJeremy Thaler and Constance Potter met while establishing Mifflin Street Co-op in Madison, Wisconsin. They shared common belief in the importance of herbal supplements, worker-owned cooperatives, organic and sustainable farming and the power of community. Upon leaving Madison and moving to Rochester, New York, they established a worker cooperative distribution called Clear Eye Distribution, and a whole-grain bakery that also produced granola using a barrel roaster. A chance question from a friend, "You have a barrel roaster, why don't you use it to make peanut butter? " led Jeremy to the peanut butter business. In 1976, Once Again Nut Butter was born. When Jeremy and Connie left Rochester for a more rural area, they moved the company into their 800 square foot basement and manufactured peanut butter there until they purchased the current facility in 1981. Mission StatementOnce Again is a democratically operated employee-owned workplace. They pride theirselves in providing the health-conscious consumers with products of superior quality and integrity. Located in a small rural community, they are dedicated to supporting organic and sustainable farming practices. They are proud to offer a healthier alternative, where every customer matters. Membership: National Honey Bee Awareness Day Northeast Organic Farming Association of New York Domestic Fair Trade Association Organic Trade Association American Peanut Council National Cooperative Business Association National Center for Employee Ownership (NCEO) Private Label Manufacturers Association So what about their raccoon?Four baby raccoons, referred to as kits, grew up on the factory grounds. They were apparently orphans, and really enjoyed their nut butters. The Once Again Family adopted them, one of whom was lovingly named, Rocky. Their kits were very friendly, and adored their office. So...in turn, they adopted them and created their company logo in their honor. The Once Again Family helped the raccoons in their early months then released them into the forest. To this day, their byproducts are donated to area farms or to nature lovers who often use their products as animal and bird foods. Their raccoon has become a symbol of their wholesome nature, their closeness and responsibility to the earth and the nature of their product.

Children act out on how they feel; if they are having behavioral issues, it is usually because there is something off-kilter with them, or with their situation. If you are able to identify the cause, many times the behavior will significantly subside. Thus, it pays to explore, with the child, what they are experiencing and what might be causing them to feel stressed.

Youth Connection is an intensive program for those individuals who suffer from addiction, but are also faced with the challenges of young adulthood. Teenagers and young adults, 18 – 25 years of age, who suffer from drug or alcohol addiction often find themselves dealing with additional pressures. They may have trouble with their workload at school, associate with delinquent peers, suffer from a lack parental supervision, or just generally exhibit feelings of inadequacy, poor self-image, or even depression. They have not learned the necessary skills that would otherwise enable them to cope with everyday life situations.

The end of a year brings about plenty of post about the top stories of the year. On Monday, I wrote a post looking back at some of the top Twins headlines from 2012. This included positive years from Josh Willingham and Joe Mauer along with some other news stories that defined the last calendar year for the Twins organization.
At the end of the year, it can be an important time to remember all of those that we lost in 2012. The 2011 season saw the Twins dealing with the loss of one of the team's legends, Harmon Killebrew. The men listed below were never elected to the Hall of Fame but they still made contributions to the franchise in multiple decades.
Here are the former Twins players that passed away in 2012 with a little bit about their Minnesota playing days:
Boswell played all but one season of his career with the Twins. He was a pitcher on some of the best team's in Twins history during the 1960's. With the club, he amassed a 67-54 record with a 3.49 ERA including 37 complete games. He averaged over 120 strikeouts a season and he had double digits in wins for four consecutive seasons. His best season might have been the 1969 campaign when he won a career high 20 games and helped lead the Twins to the postseason. During the middle of that season, he got in a fight with manager Billy Martin and that might be why is he most remembered. He would hurt his shoulder pitching in the 11th inning of a playoff game he started against the Orioles. Boswell would never be the same.
Jack Kralick (Twins 1961-63)
Kralick got his start with the Washington Senators and he moved with the club to Minnesota in 1961. He would post double digits in wins during the clubs first two years in Bloomington while pitching at least 242 innings. He threw the first no-hitter in franchise history on August 26, 1962. During the middle of the 1963 season, he would be traded to Cleveland for Jim Perry. Perry would go on to be a staple in the Twins rotation for the next decade and Kralick would only pitch four more seasons. He made his lone All-Star appearance in 1964 with Cleveland but his better days were behind him at that point.
Don Mincher (Twins 1961-66)
Much like Kralick, Mincher got his start in Washington before the franchise packed up for the Twin Cities. The left-handed slugger would hit 200 home runs during his 13 year career including two campaigns with over 20 home runs with the Twins. Harmon Killebrew took away some at-bats from Mincher at first base as he didn't appear in over 100 games until the 1964 season. He played in all seven games of the 1965 World Series but only managed three hits, one of them being a home run, and a .130 average. He would go on to win the World Series with the '72 Oakland A's.
Frank Pastore (Twins 1986)
Pastore played in 33 games for the '86 Twins being almost exclusively used out of the bullpen. He posted a 3-1 record with a 4.01 ERA across 49.1 innings. It would be his last season at the big league level as he struggled the next season in the minor league system for the Rangers. Pastore made a name for himself as a starter for the Cincinnati Reds. His biggest moment might have come when he was a 22-year old rookie and he pitched his heart out in the 1979 NLCS. He had a tragic death after being in a coma for multiple weeks following a motorcycle accident. Following his baseball career, he would go on to accomplish many things including multiple college degrees and hosting his own radio show.
Jay Ward (Twins 1963-64)
Out of the men on this list, Ward played in the fewest amount of games with the Twins. He only managed to get into 21 games and he spent most of his professional career bouncing around the minor leagues. Over his 53 plate appearances with the club, he hit .174/.283/.239 with three doubles and seven walks. Ward would continue playing in the minors until he was 32 years old but he only made it into another six games at the big league level. Following his playing career, he would manage the Twins Midwest League affiliated team, the Wisconsin Rapids Twins, for one season. He would make it back to the big leagues as a hitting coach with the '87 Yankees and the '91-'92 Expos.

When I think back to my younger years, sometimes I wonder what it might have been like if the AL had been using the DH in the 1960s. It would have meant not getting to see Mudcat Grant and Jim Kaat hit... and don't kid yourselves, those two knew what to do with a bat in their hands.
But it also would have meant getting to watch Don Mincher hit a lot more (and Dean Chance a lot less).

That's interesting to think about.
Only one of these players made it into a game while I was alive so I don't really remember the game without the DH.

2-Year-Old Girl With Bruising, Broken Ribs Found Dead In Rockaway
(Rebecca Fishbein) The body of a two-year-old girl was discovered in a Far Rockaway home yesterday, and according to authorities the toddler exhibited signs of abuse, including broken ribs and bruising around the mouth.
The NYPD says they found the young girl, identified as two-year-old Kevasia Edwards, unconscious and unresponsive at her home on Rockaway Beach Boulevard on Beach 56th Place around 11:30 p.m. yesterday, after receiving a 911 call. Kevasia's body reportedly exhibited "bruising around her mouth;" she also had two broken ribs and was underweight, according to the Post. She was rushed to a nearby hospital and declared dead at around 12:02 a.m. this morning.

CARSON - The Cal Poly Pomona women's basketball team didn't play as poorly as it did last time out in a win over San Francisco State.
But the Broncos did make things harder on themselves than they needed to be.
Still, coach Danelle Bishop's team emerged with a 79-68 win over Cal State Dominguez Hills in CCAA play Friday at the Toro Dome. It was the seventh straight win for the Broncos (10-5, 8-3), who pulled to within one game of leader Chico State in the league standings.
"We gave up way too many offensive boards in the first half and that's something we have done," Bishop said. "We did better in the second half and did a good job of playing through a physical game and responding to the runs they did have."
Cal Poly, which hasn't lost in five weeks, led from start to finish. The Toros (5-10, 4-7) were doomed early by poor shooting and turnovers. The Broncos led by as many as 16 points in the first half at 42-26 but the Toros finished the half with a 9-4 run to cut the deficit to 46-35.
Dominguez Hills got as close as five points, slicing the deficit to 48-43 on a three-point play by Denisha Lundy three minutes into the second half.
But the Broncos answered with a 12-2 run, punctuated by back-to-back 3-pointers from Jennfier Bryant.
The closest the host team came after that was nine points.
Cal Poly shot a solid 52 percent (28 for 54) from the field but made just 16 of 27 free throws and had 22 turnovers.
J.J. Judge had a game-high 21 points. Three others were in double figures - Ashley Boggs (15), Bryant (14) and Cydnie Jones (11).
"We have gotten better," Bishop said. "Look at where we were in December. I am really proud with how the girls have fought and worked hard. We're still a young team."
Dominguez Hills, led by first-year coach Molly Goodenbour and featuring eight freshmen, was led by Redlands High School product Breanna Garcia, who had 19 points, six rebounds and four steals. The Toros shot just 40 percent (24 for 60), but made just 35.5 percent (11 for 31) in the first half. They also had 19 turnovers.
The Broncos will play at Cal State Los Angeles at 5:30 tonight. The Eagles (13-5, 8-3) defeated Humboldt State 72-70 in overtime and are tied with the Broncos and UC San Diego for second place.

'Last night's final exhibition game, against the Buffalo Sabres, was an eventful one, if not just for the venue: the 3,000-seat Jack Gatecliff Arena, with an ice surface of just 180-by-70 feet (the NHL standard is 200-by-85). The game was the second half of a reciprocal agreement that brought the Sabres to Ottawa's minor-league affiliate in Binghamton to open the pre-season.'

The Bowls: A Historical Perspective
Tuesday, January 21, 2014
Bowl games have always been the signposts of college football history, the markers of where the game is, or was, at a particular point in time, and where it seemed to be going.
The game of football grew up with the bowls, and the postseason exhibitions - which is what they were intended to be for most of their existences - also grew exponentially with the growing popularity of the sport.
Wagner (pictured, left) was the source of the pageantry that became the hallmark of postseason college football. But even his contributions rested on the shoulders of Professor Charles Frederick Holder.
First things first. Holder, a Massachusetts-born naturalist, moved to California in 1885 for two reasons: the climate, and to teach zoology at the Throop College of Technology (now Cal Tech). In 1888, Holder, with newspaper clippings in hand telling of a great blizzard that hit New York, addressed the membership of the Valley Hunt Club of Pasadena.
"Gentlemen," Holder intoned, "I came from the East to this beautiful area for my health. I found it here. I also discovered happiness and beauty. In New York, people are buried in snow. Here our flowers are blooming and our oranges are about to bear. Let's have a festival and tell the world about our paradise."
That was the beginning of the Tournament of Roses, starting in 1890 with a promenade of horse-pulled buggies festooned with flowers winding its way through the quaint village. It went on to include foot races, bicycle races and even a tug of war.
To say this was the start of something big doesn't begin to do the phrase justice.
The parade drew exactly the kind of attention for which it was intended, quickly becoming a major California tourist draw. But the sports program was nothing more than a sideshow - until the dynamic Wagner became president of the Tournament of Roses Association in 1901 and added football to the list by pairing Fielding H. Yost's undefeated Michigan team against Stanford (pictured right).
At Tournament Park, a crowd of approximately 8,500 filled the stands as the Wolverines trounced the Cardinal, 49-0.
The game netted nearly $4,000, which was even more than Wagner's guarantee to the two schools, so financially his concept was a success. Artistically, however, it was anything but. Let's face it, Michigan's prowess, and/or Stanford's ineptness made for a pretty dull outing that wasn't going to have fans rushing out to buy tickets for another game.
Football was replaced by polo matches, chariot races and even ostrich races. Problem was those events drew scant attention from the press in the East, which is where the Tournament of Roses wanted it most.
"We'd better go back to football," suggested Francis F. Rowland, who, with the help of President Lewis H. Turner, set up a committee to create a colossal football game - "So Pasadena can give the newspapermen from coast to coast something to write about."
In what could have been a disaster, played in wet and cold weather, in the permanent return of football of 1916, Washington State defeated Brown 14-0 before a crowd of 7,000. Nonetheless, the Rose Association actually lost $11,000 on that game.
Still, the organization made the astute decision that football had more combined appeal as a festival feature than any other sporting presentation. Rose Bowl football was here to stay, and would become a major influence in the direction of college football.
During the 1930s, when football was entrenched in the consciousness of the nation, other warm-weather locations realized putting on a holiday festival featuring the popular sport was a way to draw visitors to their cities.
Earnie Seiler (left), the City of Miami's recreation director, and Fred Digby (right), a hard-working New Orleans sports editor, would pay attention to Pasadena's pioneering venture. Seiler was the acknowledged ramrod of the Orange Bowl, and Digby, along with attorney Warren Miller, spearheaded a crusade to bring a similar holiday game to New Orleans.
Both had some starts and stops, even some minor games, before the big attractions took root in 1935, almost two decades after the Washington State-Brown game that cemented Rose Bowl football. But visionaries Digby and Seiler believed fervently that their creations could be successful.
On Jan. 1, 1935, Tulane defeated Temple 20-14 before 22,206 fans in the first Sugar Bowl, and Bucknell beat Miami 26-0 before 5,135 fans in the first Orange Bowl.
A year later, the Sun Bowl was started and, in 1937, the (now defunct) Bacardi Bowl and the first Cotton Bowls were played.
All told, more than 200,000 fans attended bowl games on that first day of 1937.
Ironically, the NCAA had just adopted a report saying postseason games and their commercialism had no place in college football. But an Associated Press report noting the six holiday games and their attractiveness ran a story with the headline: "Bowl Grid Games Are Here to Stay."
In the following years, the popularity of postseason football was manifested in the growth of the stadiums in which they were played. The Orange Bowl expanded from 23,000 to 76,000; the Cotton Bowl grew from 45,000 to 67,000; the Sugar Bowl (right) ballooned from 23,000 to 80,000; and even the Rose Bowl went from 57,000 in 1921 to 92,542.
These football get-togethers were in high demand.
In the meantime, the NCAA continued to fume about the "wrongs" of college football, including bowl games. From the late '30s onward, there was a faction of the organization that opposed recruiting, financial aid for athletes - and bowls. The charges were manifested in a series of bills called "The Sanity Code." Its supporters thought bowls fostered crass commercialism and a win-at-all-costs mentality.
Ultimately, the Sanity Code was defeated, though a need was acknowledged for enforcement of the rules, hence the strengthening of NCAA regulations and the organization's ability to oversee them.
But bowl games remained on firm ground.
About the time bowls came into vogue, another bonding factor in the popularity of college football came to the fore: polls, which ranked the quality of programs across the country. Almost nothing was more intoxicating to the average fan of a given school than to see his team ranked among the sport's elite.
Of course, there had been polls almost from the beginning, but they were generally comprised of mathematical equations formulated by one or two men, or by word of mouth on the prowess of any given team. Actually seeing and evaluating teams was nearly impossible. All most pollsters could witness were teams in their own backyards - meaning they had very little credibility.
But, in 1936, Alan Gould, the Associated Press' national sports editor, changed everything. He invented the AP Poll and weekly polled sports editors of AP newspapers to determine the rankings.
He later said, "It was a case of thinking up ideas to develop interest and controversy. Papers wanted material to fill space between games. That's all I had in mind, something to keep the pot boiling...This was just another exercise in hoopla."
For a decade and a half, the AP was the definitive decree on football rankings . . . until a new national news-gathering organization came on the scene: United Press International.
Leo Peterson, UPI's answer to Mr. Gould, countered the AP system with a poll voted upon by active football coaches. And unlike the AP, each section of the country would be represented with five voters apiece.
No sectional bias in our ballots was the message here.
For the next half-century, the Coaches' Poll, which went through several iterations, and the AP's Writers' Poll, offered their own rankings - and champions.
Here was the crux: while other polls often had differing views it didn't matter because few paid much attention. But the wire services were different. Everyone who read newspapers knew when there were opposing opinions, and there were plenty. Eleven times between 1950 and 1997 the wire services touted different No. 1 teams at the end of the year.
It took some time, but as more and more fans started calling for a national champion everyone could agree on, a convergence of bowls and polls was on the horizon.
In an effort to pair the best two teams in the country, spurred in part by yet another split national championship with Miami (AP) and Washington (Coaches), college football went through a series of formulas to do just that. The Bowl Coalition (1992-1994) morphed into the Bowl Alliance (1995-97), in which another dual title between Michigan (AP) and Nebraska (Coaches) marred the experiment, and then the Bowl Championship Series (1998-2014), in which a series of computers were added to the "eye-tests" of the AP and Coaches polls.
The first two were flawed largely because the Pac-10, Big Ten and Rose Bowl were not part of the system, meaning the outcomes may not have been truly "national." So how did it work when the Rose Bowl components were solved? Consider: for 57 years after the AP Poll was established, only nine times had No. 1 played No. 2 in the bowls. Once the BCS formula was in place, for 15 straight years, No. 1 and No. 2 played to settle the issue on the field - though arriving at the rankings could still be thorny. In 2003, when the BCS formula had LSU No. 1 and Oklahoma No. 2, the AP had USC on top.
AP was so piqued that it was no longer the loudest voice on the subject, it pulled itself out of the BCS balloting.
From there, despite the fact the two consensus best teams were being paired, criticism seemed to mount from every corner, which led us to where we are today, with one more BCS champion to be crowned before the start of a four-team playoff system next year, when all eyes will be fixed on two semifinal games and a championship game that is being bid out to interested cities just like the NFL's Super Bowl.
From those humble and colorful beginnings in Pasadena, Miami and New Orleans to what is today a thriving, money-driven industry - postseason college football has come a long, long way. Wonder what Wagner, Seiler and Digby would think?

If you know the commands and they work on the D-Link then why bother with airoscript?
I've never really used it but I seem to recall reading airoscript was pretty flakey, but if you really want to use an automated program then update to the latest aircrack 1.0 beta and check out wesside-ng. It didn't work for me last time I tried it, (about a month ago), but I was using an Atheros card and apparently there were issues with it and Atheros chipsets at the time...I couldn't tell you whether that's been fixed yet but it doesn't matter to you because you're using a Realtek chipset anyway.
The Buffalo card is a Broadcom chipset, which is code for pretty dodgy, so if I was you I'd just use the D-Link and wesside-ng, (if you really must use an automated script).
Clearly you have two separate issues here:
1) airoscript isn't working
2) you've not sorted out your Broadcom to inject...hence why it's not fake-authing.
My advice:
1) forget airoscript, or search the forum to see if anyone else has got it working.
2) search the forum for how to get your Broadcom chipset, (Buffalo card), to inject...personally I'd just ditch it and stick to the D-Link, but that's me.

cervical ca vacc.
Cervical cancer vaccination...i know its in 3 doses with interval of 0-1-6mos.
If i got pregnant during 4th month, does it mean i'll pass my 3rd dose? Or is it safe to administer my last dose? Help.
29th October 2013 06:57 AM #2
The vaccination schedule for cervical cancer varies by country. It is possible to have it administered as just one vaccination and then a booster.
There are no known problems caused by giving the HPV vaccine to pregnant women, however, it is still not recommended generally because there is limited information about this.
Warm wishes,

Tombstone Tuesday: When Cousins Marry
3 comments:
- Karen Howes said...
Hi Midge-- it's nice to come across a blog about NH genealogy (many of my ancestors on my mom's side of the family were from NH, specifically Rockingham County).
In my own family tree, I've come across several instances of second cousin marriages, but only one or two instances of first cousins, so I wonder if it was actually ever a common thing for first cousins to marry in colonial New England.
Today it's still legal in most U.S. states to marry your first cousin... I suppose that as long as you don't have generations of inbreeding-- i.e., products of first cousins marrying THEIR first cousins, and their kids marrying THEIR first cousins, you don't have to worry about dueling banjos...
We may be related. I am a descendant of a Rice/Dix combo. So we could connect on either line. I don't have the info. stored in memory, but I can look it up later. It would be interesting to find out. I've got my Rice line back about 4-5 generations, and Dix maybe less than that. I'll have to check. Your names sound familiar.

Anne Hathaway turns up blond at the Met Gala
(Yahoo!) - Remember when everyone flipped out after Anne Hathaway chopped off her long, flowing locks? Well, hold on to your hats, people.
Girl. Is. Blond.
The 30-year-old Oscar winner, whose brunette coif has pretty much remained the same color for all of her storied career, turned up at the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute Gala in New York City rocking a brand new hue to go with her vintage Valentino.
[Click here to see photos from the Met Gala]
No word yet if any particular project inspired such a change, but the drastic measure certainly was in line with the evening's punk theme. In fact, the star claimed her inspiration for the night was rocker Debbie Harry.
We can't help but wonder if the move will inspire dozens of women to grab for the bleach. Hathaway's short pixie cut – shorn for her statuette-scoring turn as Fantine in "Les Miserables" – was named the most influential onscreen haircut of all time by the Hairdressing Council of Great Britain and Universal Pictures.
But the actress didn't always embrace her 'do.
"I've now done back-flips out of windows, I've jumped off buildings," she said on "Live With Kelly" in 2012. "And cutting my hair reduced me to, like, mental patient-level crying. I was inconsolable."
Here's hoping becoming a blond wasn't quite as traumatic.

Back problems force Eric Clapton to cancel two shows
Listen to Eric Clapton on iHeartRadio
Eric Clapton is taking an unexpected break from his tour. Back problems forced the guitar great to make a last-minute cancellation of his Tuesday show in Vienna, Austria. He's also scrapped his concert Wednesday in Stuttgart, Germany.
A post on Clapton's website says the rocker is suffering from "severe back pain," and he's addressing the situation "with specialists who will be able to better determine the course of treatment." The message adds that Eric "was looking forward to these concerts and regrets" not being able to perform for his fans. He also extends his apology for "any inconveniences these cancellations may cause, and would like to thank the fans for their understanding."
Clapton is expected to be back on his feet soon. He's slated to resume his European tour in Oberhausen, Germany on Friday. Eric is on the road in support of his most recent album, "Old Sock," which hit stores earlier this year.

Frank Jackson wins a third term.
(Cleveland) - Two Democrats are faced off in Cleveland's mayoral election, but the race was not even close.
Voters in Cleveland overwhelmingly returned Mayor Frank Jackson to office for third term, and rejected businessman Ken Lanci.
Lanci was running for office for the first time since losing out on a bid for the Cuyahoga County Executive job in 2010.
Lanci counted on the city police union's endorsement and concerns about crime and jobs, but fell far short at the polls. He put more than $400,000 of his own money into his campaign.

Jackson is a long-time office holder in Cleveland and benefited from strong name recognition, and balancing the city's budget through the recession without raising taxes.
In his victory speech Jackson said Cleveland is now position to grow now that more people are moving downtown and that there's a new convention center and medical technology exhibit.
Jackson says during this term he was to put in place mechanisms that will insurance continued growth that will spread beyond downtown and into Cleveland's neighborhoods.
In his concession speech, Lanci declined to wish Jackson luck in serving his third term.

RECAP: A Tragic End to DOWNTON ABBEY's Season 3
Through the misty valleys and across the glimmering lochs, the earnest wail of the bagpipe pierces the morning air. "Welcome to the Highlands," Cora teases as Robert rolls over miserably in bed and pulls a pillow tightly over his ears.
The finale of Downton Abbey Season 3 picks up a year later and finds the Crawley family in Scotland at Duneagle Castle, the home of Shrimpy and Susan MacClare and their daughter Rose. This annual trip had been put off for a number of years but the family finally reunites for hunting, fishing, picnicking, and of course reeling at the ghillies' ball.
Just as Dr. Ryder had predicted, Mary and Matthew were finally able to conceive and now she is eight months into her pregnancy. All of the men in her life, Matthew, Robert, and Carson, are concerned that the trip might be trying for her, but Mary, being her irrepressible self, insists on joining the family in all of their activities.
As we get acquainted with the hosts of the house, it becomes apparent why Rose has an inclination toward the rebellious. Surrounded by animosity, it is no wonder she is constantly in search of a way out. Shrimpy and Susan's marriage is in a shambles. At the root of their marital problems is the fact that the two simply "don't like each other", compounded now by their disagreements on how to raise their daughter. His wife's incessant nagging drives Shrimpy to exasperation and his daughter to tears. Rose escapes dinner one evening to calm herself with a cigarette and is startled to run into Anna and Bates (or as they're called in Scotland, Mr. Grantham and Miss Crawley), and asks that they don't giver her away. The couple rubs some of their delirious happiness off on the distraught teenager and cheers her with abetment and a mint. To thank her for her kindness, Rose agrees to give Anna reeling lessons to prepare for the forthcoming ghillies' ball, a secret the two keep from the rest of the family and the servants.
In the end, the MacClares decide that Rose would do best living with the Crawleys. With Shrimpy taking a post in Bombay, they believe that the time away from her mother and the influence of the Crawleys would do her good. However, if last week's episode serves as a preview of what is to come next season, we can be sure Rose's antics will bring a new wave of torment for Robert and Cora. It may be especially difficult for them as Rose's rebellious spirit stirs up memories of Sybil in Cora. But Rose also has a softness to her, and her eagerness to bulldoze into the future should breath new life into Downton.
As miserably unhappy as they are, no one can accuse the Marquess and Marchioness of Flintshire of being ungracious hosts. They are even good enough to welcome Edith's editor, Michael Gregson, into their home. Far less willing to accept the man is Mary, who is unconvinced of his motives. She sees through his cover of a "sketching holiday", suspecting that the true purpose for his visit to Scotland is to meet the family and perhaps to propose to Edith. She sets her husband on the case. While fly-fishing, Matthew uncovers Michael's knotty past and much to the editor's dismay, encourages him to abandon his quest for Edith's heart. But it is too late. He has already confessed his love to her and she now seems determined to keep him in her life.
Robert's time at Duneagle is enjoyable, but more importantly, it puts his life into perspective. Seeing the tension between Shrimpy and Susan gives him a newfound respect for his marriage to Cora. He also finally realizes that his decision to modernize truly saved his estate. At first he is jealous of Shrimpy and revels in the tradition of the house- the ghillie speak, the stalking, even the kilted bagpiper impresses him when he's not piping him awake. But when he learns that Duneagle is on its last legs, he is stricken by the fact that Downton may have met a similar fate had it not been for Matthew. In the end, he finds himself more grateful than ever for his heir, his wife, his family, and for Downton, and he longs to return.
At Downton, Carson has the remaining staff working as hard as ever. The footmen set to work polishing the family's silver while the maids take the opportunity of an empty house to do an extensive cleaning of each room. The staff longs for at least a brief respite from their duties, so when they are all invited to a fair in Thirsk, they plead with Carson for an afternoon off to attend. They are invited by Jos Tufton, a new supplier to the Downton kitchen. Tufton is mainly after the attention of Mrs. Patmore and asks for "the honor of squiring [her] through the day". Dr. Clarkson also seems to have "squiring" on his mind. When he learns about the fair from Mrs. Hughes, he asks Isobel to accompany him and she accepts.
Branson also agrees to go to the fair, though he struggles with the decision. Having been left behind as the only member of the family in the house, he grapples with his new identity more than ever. The arrival of a new maid, Edna, in particular makes him question his position. Edna finds herself attracted to Tom and knowing his history as a chauffeur, feels that she is his equal. Determined to make him feel the same, she constantly pressures him to return to his roots. Tom wishes to prove he is "still the same man inside" (perhaps more to himself than anyone else) and agrees to drive the staff to Thirsk for the fair.
On the day of the fair all is well at first. The staff lets loose and enjoys the games and attractions of the event. It seems that the year has mended fences between Daisy and Ivy and the two are inseparable as they walk the fairgrounds. Mrs. Patmore arrives in a new frock and looks for her "fancy man" at his stall. When she finds him, she is charmed by Mr. Tufton's larger than life personality and his declaration that "he loves to be in love".
But Mrs. Hughes is wary of the man's advances. Throughout the day, she sees him flirting with, groping and kissing various other women while Mrs. Patmore isn't watching. She also has her eye on Edna and Branson. Her suspicions were peaked by Edna's behavior back at the house. She refused to stand when he entered a room and spoke to him as an equal. At the fair she latches on to him to walk arm in arm and grabs him to steady herself on the carousel. Mrs. Hughes recognizes in her the same flaws that once led Ethel to her demise.

After you boot off the live disc you should already be logged in as root and see a shell prompt, type passwd and set a new password before starting X. If you close the lid on your laptop and the screen locks before you do this, you will have to reboot.
If you get locked out on resume you can log into a virtual terminal (ctrl+alt+F1) and use passwd to set a root password. Then hit ctrl+alt+F7 and you'll be able to log back in. This might keep someone from losing their work. The best solution, of course, is the one mentioned above. BT4 had the same "issue".If you close the lid on your laptop and the screen locks before you do this, you will have to reboot.
BT5 32bit KDE4
*in chroot customise
root@nwsecnb1:/# passwd
Enter new UNIX password:
Retype new UNIX password:
passwd: Authentication token manipulation error
passwd: password unchanged
I have tried 10 times to burn BT5 DVD with KDE and GNOME 32 bit all at 2 times. They wont boot. BT4 works OK.
The only way I have got BT5 to do any thing is to use Unetbooting on a Ubuntu machine, wont work on XP.
Now I am tring to make SDHC but cant. Grub-installs every time - not enough space.
BT5 looks great but cant save anything yet untill I get a good install on SDHC
any ideas please
when you cloose lid then reopen just hit enter there isnt a password set this way
This will work for you as it did for me
hit ctrl+alt+F6 (or any F key other than 7) set your password with passwd
then change back to the locked screen and type it
when you run the live dvd there's no password and you cannot just press enter.
I'm going to suggest that the recommendation to change the passwd upon logging in be added to the MOTD in future releases.
I locked the laptop to use the bathroom(as I do always), came back and to my dismay toor wasnt working. I found this thread via my phone, and I was really annoyed at people suggesting that the only way to solve it was to reboot.
This should be stickied at the very least.
I dont know if anyone has said it but before you type startx...type passwd (enter new password) then it will ask you to enter the pass again. After that hit start x and it should have your new pass. I was having the same issue and this worked for me.

Combine gelatin and cold water; let stand until thick. Place gelatin mixture in top of double boiler and heat until dissolved. Add glucose and glycerin; mix well. Stir in shortening and just before completely melted, remove from heat, add flavoring and color. Mixture should cool until lukewarm. Next, place 1 lb. Confectioners´ sugar in a bowl and make a well. Pour the lukewarm gelatin mixture into the well and stir with a wooden spoon, mixing in sugar and adding more a little at a time, until stickiness disappears. Knead in remaining sugar. Knead until the fondant is smooth, pliable and does not stick to your hands. If fondant is too soft, add more sugar; if too stiff add water a drop at a time. Use fondant immediately or store in airtight container in a cool, dry place. Do not refrigerate or freeze. When ready to use, bring to room temperature and knead again until soft. This recipe yields enough to cover a 10 x 4 in. high cake.
YIELD: Makes about 2 pounds fondant.

Colon Returns To A's
When Bartolo Colon was suspended for violating Major League Baseball's policy on performance enhancing drugs in August, many assumed he had thrown his last pitch for the Oakland A's. However, the A's were looking for a veteran arm for their 2013 staff and they turned back to Colon, who was a steady hand near the top of their rotation until the suspension in 2012.
In 24 starts for the A's last season, Colon went 10-9 with a 3.43 ERA. He tossed 152.1 innings and had a 91:23 K:BB ratio. Colon is currently pitching for the Aguilas Cibaenas of the Dominican Winter League. He has allowed three runs in 9.1 innings with 10 strike-outs and no walks. Colon left his last start with the Cibaenas after being struck in the mouth with a line-drive. He had to have stitches but suffered no fractures.
Colon will turn 40 next May. The A's are believed to still have interest in signing fellow free agent starter Brandon McCarthy.
A's Sign Two Minor League Free Agents
The A's moved early to sign two veteran minor league free agent pitchers: right-hander Mike Ekstrom and left-hander Garrett Olson. Both pitchers have major league experience and should provide depth for the A's at the Triple-A level in 2013. They will both receive invitations to the A's major league spring training camp.
Ekstrom split the 2012 season between Triple-A Colorado Springs and the Colorado Rockies' bullpen. The Oregon native posted a 2.53 ERA for the Sky Sox despite pitching in one of the most hitter-friendly environments in the Pacific Coast League for his home games. In 57 Triple-A innings, Ekstrom struck-out 57 and walked 18 while not allowing a homerun and holding opposing batters to a .224 average. Things didn't go quite as smoothly for Ekstrom at the major league level in 2012. He posted a 6.32 ERA in 15.2 innings. Ekstrom allowed 21 hits and a homer, but he walked only two and struck-out nine.
He began his career in the San Diego Padres' organization as a 12th round pick in 2004. Ekstrom moved through the Padres' chain at a steady pace. He won the team's Minor League Pitcher of the Year award in 2006 and reached the major leagues in 2008. He would appear in 20 games for the Padres in 2008 and 2009.
Before the 2010 season, Ekstrom was claimed off of waivers by the Tampa Bay Rays. He made the Rays' Opening Day roster that season, but he would make only 15 appearances for Tampa that season, spending the rest of the year in Triple-A. In 2011, Ekstrom made 46 appearances in Triple-A for Tampa and one relief appearance in the big leagues. The 2012 season was Ekstrom's first in the Rockies' organization. In 61 career big league innings, Ekstrom has a 5.61 ERA and a 1.56 WHIP. His minor league career ERA is 3.71 and his WHIP is 1.33.
Ekstrom features a fastball, slider, change-up and curveball. His fastball generally sits in the 90-93 MPH range. When he is at his best, Ekstrom is a groundball pitcher.
Olson was once one of the top prospects in the Baltimore Orioles chain. A 2005 sandwich pick by the Orioles, Olson made it to the big leagues by 2007 and made 26 starts for Baltimore in 2008. After that season, Olson was traded twice – first to the Chicago Cubs for Felix Pie and then to the Seattle Mariners for Aaron Heilman. Olson would make 66 appearances for the Mariners in 2009 and 2010, 11 of those being starts.
Olson spent the 2011 season in the Pittsburgh Pirates' chain, making four appearances at the major league level and 24 (15 starts) in Triple-A. He moved on to the New York Mets' chain in 2012, spending nearly all of the season with Triple-A Buffalo (he had one appearance for the Mets). In 287.2 career major league innings, Olson has a 6.26 ERA and a 193:143 K:BB ratio. In 686.1 career minor league innings, Olson has a 3.45 ERA and a 636:263 K:BB ratio.
The southpaw's fastball sits in the 88-91 MPH range and he gets good movement on the pitch. His best secondary offering is a power curveball. He also features a change-up. Olson has had decent command during his minor league career, but he has struggled to throw strikes consistently at the big league level.
Cespedes, Melvin Named Finalists For Major Awards; Beane Takes Home Honor
The Baseball Writer Association of America announced the finalists for their major end-of-the-season awards on Wednesday and two members of the 2012 AL West champions were included. Outfielder Yoenis Cespedes was named a finalist for the AL's Rookie of the Year award and manager Bob Melvin was named a finalist for the AL's Manager of the Year award.
Cespedes had a standout rookie season for the A's, posting a .292/.356/.505 line with 23 homers and 16 stolen bases in 129 games. He was the A's top hitter and a key figure in the team's push to the post-season. Cespedes hit .316 during the A's five-game American League Division Series against the Detroit Tigers. Despite the strong season, Cespedes is a longshot to win the award. Los Angeles Angels' outfielder Mike Trout should run away with the award after posting historically good numbers (.326/.399/.564 with 30 homers and 49 stolen bases in 139 games). Texas Rangers' right-hander Yu Darvish is the other finalist. The winner will be announced on Monday, November 12.
Melvin will go up against Baltimore Orioles' skipper Buck Showalter and Chicago White Sox's first-year manager Robin Ventura. Melvin and Showalter are the two favorites for the award after both managers led team's expected to finish in last place to the post-season. The winner will be announced on Tuesday, November 13.
On Wednesday, A's GM Billy Beane was named Executive of the Year by the Sporting News in a vote taken of baseball executives.
Simmons' Strong Fall Continues
A's 2007 first-round pick James Simmons continues to shine in the Arizona Fall League. The right-hander threw a scoreless inning in the AFL's Rising Stars showcase on Saturday, striking out a batter. He added another scoreless inning on Wednesday and has allowed only two runs on one hit in 10.1 innings pitched (not including that Rising Stars appearance). He has struck-out eight and has walked three.
A's 2009 first-round pick Grant Green picked up his first triple of the fall on Tuesday. He is batting .278/.350/.407 with six walks and 13 strike-outs in 13 games.

a) no the haste cap is not enough to make the talent unnecessary
b) no the talent plus additional haste does not take you below 1 sec gcd, because 1 sec is the GCD cap.
You would need somewhere around 5500 haste rating (and the 5% haste raid buff) to reach a 1.0 sec GCD without the swift rejuv talent.
Since you aren't really losing much in choosing swift rejuv over the other talent options, just take it and have the guarenteed 1 sec GCD for Rejuv. Being able to respond faster after casting a rejuv can be lifesaving. To say nothing of being able to toss multiple rejuvs out faster for raid healing.
And in a matter of months it wont matter as the prepatch for MoP wont have the same talent trees anymore.
