Looking to lose weight, manage a health condition or simply feel better, but not sure where to start?
You might not know it yet, but you are the person who best knows how to make the changes you need to make. How I can help is by listening to you. I can work with you to hear where you are right now, where you want to be and then help you identify a road map to achieve your goals.
Want to dip a toe in the water before diving in? Start off by scheduling a free 15-minute phone call. We can discuss what's going on and what you hope to achieve through nutrition counseling. I'll send you some followup information and if it seems like a good fit, we can go forward.
Services Offered
- Individual counseling: Want to make a healthy lifestyle change? Whether you're looking to improve your diet for a specific health reason (pregnancy, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, etc.), want to lose weight, or simply feel healthier, we can work together to figure out how to make the changes you want to make.
- Phone/Skype counseling sessions: Not able to meet in person? We can arrange a session by phone or Skype.
- Kitchen assessment and grocery tour: I'll assess the contents of your pantry and fridge, identify room for improvement and together we'll identify foods that would be better go-to's to stock in your house
Counseling Packages
Weight loss coaching
Learn permanent strategies for healthy eating and lasting weight loss through this 12-week program. For the first four weeks, we'll meet weekly to establish goals. Then we'll meet biweekly for the next two months to check in on progress, identify challenges and create new goals as needed. You may want to schedule monthly follow-ups after the initial 3 months to stay on track. The goal is to empower you to make lasting changes you can live with.
Initial consultation (75 minutes) + weekly follow-ups (45 minutes) for the first 3 weeks and biweekly follow-ups during the next 2 months. (one 90-minute session + seven 45-minute sessions total): $805
Prenatal nutrition counseling
When you're preparing to get pregnant and when you're newly pregnant, you may be wondering how you can create the very best environment for your growing baby through the food you eat. Through this type of nutrition counseling, we'll discuss the nutrients you and your baby need for optimum development and strategize ways to make your diet rich in these nutrients (while enjoyable and achievable).
Initial assessment (75 minutes) + 1 follow-up (45 minutes): $265

Scientists from the University of Calgary are worried about melting glaciers in the Rockies and what they could mean for water supplies.
The researchers say there are signs the snow covered Athabasca Glacier was once wider.
They'll be discussing their concerns at an international conference being held in Banff this week called "Storm Warning: water, energy, and climate security in a changing world."
Canada's rep for the United Nations Water for Life Initiative, Robert Sandford, tells The Calgary Herald the warming trend could also have a damaging and costly effect on our economy.
Sandford says work by scientists at the U of C could give us answers as what actions we can take.

In 1977 he completed, with James Righter and Peter Lanken, Pavilion Soixante-Dix, a ski pavilion in St Saveur, Qué, which was the only Canadian work included in Charles Jencks's The Language of Post-Modern Architecture (1977) and received a 1978 Progressive Architecture Design Award. These works expressed the duality of the new Post-Modern idiom: modern in the use of geometric forms and flat surfaces, traditional in the revival of historical motifs and contextual concerns.
Urban issues have also been an important focus for Rose. To increase architectural awareness in Montréal, he founded the Alcan Lectures in Architecture (1974-92), which brought distinguished international architects, architectural historians, and planners to the city. For ALCAN ALUMINIUM LIMITED, he did interior planning and design (with Peter Lanken) for the company's new world headquarters, an exemplary project that preserved an important row of historic buildings in downtown Montréal. He has drawn up proposed master plans for several urban developments, including Montréal's Old Port.
Rose's major work to date is the CANADIAN CENTRE FOR ARCHITECTURE, an architectural museum and study centre in Montréal that houses the collections of its founder and first director, Phyllis LAMBERT. Completed in 1989, the CCA won Rose the National Honor Award of the American Institute of Architects and was the recipient of the Governor General's Award for Architecture in 1992.
In 1991 he was appointed adjunct professor of architecture at the Graduate School of Design at Harvard U. Although he continued to carry out projects in Canada, such as the WESTMOUNT Public Library restoration and addition, Rose's more recent commissions are in the US; notably, work at Brookside School, Cranbrook Educational Community in Bloomfield Hills, MI, and at Buckingham, Browne & Nichols School in Cambridge, MA; at J.B. Speed Art Museum in Louisville, KY; and for the Detroit Symphony Orchestra.
Residential work continues to engage Rose. His country house for a Montréal couple in Stowe, VT, was selected as one of Architectural Record's Record Houses in 1998, while in September 1999 the New York Times featured his renovation of a town house for Edgar Bronfman, Jr., on Manhattan's East Side.

Teresa Giudice Wants Her Own Show
Teresa Giudice wants her own show on Bravo, but only gets one under one condition. Her husband Joe has to go to jail. Then, according to US Weekly, Teresa could get a show as a single woman raising her kids. Isn't that what she is doing pretty much right now? It is not like Joe is around that much watching them. He always seems like he is busy with his various projects. I'm actually surprised that Teresa has managed to stay relatively squeaky clean through this whole process. The question is whether Teresa wants her husband at home more than she wants her own show. I think her line of thinking is that Joe will eventually get out of prison and in the meantime she can make them a lot of money with her own show and a new book and more appearances and that nannies will do a wonderful job with the kids.

Undergraduate Study
The Department of English teaches analytical and critical reading, lucid and effective writing, and studies the values and problems of human experience and culture.
The Department of English offers a wide range of courses in English, American, and Anglophone literature as well as in creative writing, expository writing, and film analysis. Literature courses focus variously on close reading of texts, study of particular authors and genres, questions of critical theory and method, and the relationship of literary works to their historical contexts and to other disciplines. Writing courses typically employ the workshop method in which students develop their skills by responding to criticism of their work by their classmates as well as their instructors. Many students supplement their formal course work in English by attending public lectures and poetry readings sponsored by the department or by writing for campus literary magazines. The department seeks not only to foster critical analysis and lucid writing but also to teach students to think about the nature of language and to be alert to both the rigors and the pleasures of reading texts of diverse inspiration.
As part of the university-wide First-Year Writing Seminars program administered by the John S. Knight Institute for Writing in the Disciplines, the department offers many one-semester courses dealing with various forms of writing (e.g., narrative, autobiographical, and expository), with the study of specific areas in English and American literature, and with the relation of literature to culture.
Students who major in English develop their own programs of study in consultation with their major advisors. Some choose to focus on a particular historical period or literary genre or to combine sustained work in creative writing with the study of literature. Others pursue interests in such areas as women's literature, African-American literature, literature and the visual arts, or critical theory. Second-semester sophomores who have done superior work in English and related subjects are encouraged to seek admission to the departmental program leading to the degree of bachelor of arts with honors in English. For students majoring in fields other than English, the department provides a variety of courses at all levels.

Columbia Street Murders 1-3-13
days into 20- 13... and shreveport authorities are investigating what may be the city's first homicide case of the year ... and it may be a double homicide. ktbs 3's erin buchanan joins us now with the very latest. erin... what can you tell us? gerry -- investigators are looking into exactly what happened to 57-year-old stephen bryan... and 49-year- old madonna dean wachter. what we do know -- is that tragedy has struck very early in the year for two local families. it's kind of freaky that something like that happens right by yr house. the sunny morning quickly turned dark.. when a relative came to this home in the 200 block of columbia stret.. to check on her sister -- who hadn't shown up for work. what she found inside.. was nothing short of a nightmare. the door was apparently unlocked, she entered the home and found two people inside the home who had apparently been injured. shreveport police say the couple was found shot to death... and neighbors say recent activity at the home may lead investigators to a motive. there's been a lot of traffic coming in and out of the house and i suspect that, with the traffic that comes in and out of the house, that had something to do with the shooting. he would sometimes be outside doing stuff in the front yard but i don't think they were too friendly to people. laura hockenberry and her mother -- cathey carey -- live across the street in the ordinarily quiet neighborhood. we did not hear a thing. we did not hear a thing. but we live in a big old house and if we're in the back, we wouldn't hear anything. neighbors say the couple mostly kept to themselves... but speculate the two may have been involved in some dangerous activity. he kind of freaked me out, honestly, so i just didn't really want to talk to him. sources say that a tenant who leased a garage apartment behind the home... heard booms overnight... but thought they were fireworks. and gerry -- sources also tell us that the home was not ransacked... which may be a sign that this was not a random act of violence. thanks erin. investigators are still talking to neighbors -- and potential witnesses -- in order to identify a suspect. if you have information... you're asked to call crime stoppers. stay with ktbs -- and ktbs dot com -- for the latest. an arkansas man -- accused of first degree murder in the death of a magnolia

If you're a Twitter user, you've probably noticed this week that your stream is unusually cluttered with boring videos of people making faces or sitting at their desks. That's Vine, Twitter's new video app. Already, some are already hailing it as the Instagram of video. For now, though, it's available only on the iPhone and iPad Touch.
As BuzzFeed was quick to point out, most people's first Vine posts (Vines? Vinestagrams?) are, to put it politely, inessential. Mercifully, they're also brief — Vine videos max out at six seconds in length. To counter the "blink and you've missed it" problem, the videos loop endlessly, leading some to compare them to GIFs, the '80s-vintage looping video snippets that have enjoyed a resurgence in recent years.
But if Vines share with GIFs the qualities of brevity and repetition, their purpose is fundamentally different, largely because of the way you create them. To make a GIF, you start with a conventional video, then use an editing tool like Adobe Photoshop to pluck from it that single perfect moment that you want to preserve for all time. In short, GIFs are the product of video-editing carried to its logical extreme. The process is reductive.
Vines, in contrast, are constructive. That is, you build a Vine by shooting little bits of video on the fly: two seconds here, two seconds there, two seconds over yonder, and you've got your end result. It's likely to be choppy, a little sloppy, imperfect. But it's immediate. The next step is not to edit but to share — on Twitter, on Facebook, and on Vine itself, which for now will be a standalone app with its own community (think Instagram) rather than a baked-in Twitter feature.
In time, Vine's six seconds could become, to borrow a phrase from CNET's Daniel Terdiman, the new atomic unit for instant video communication.

The ongoing confrontations between tribal and military powers, clampdowns on al-Qaeda operatives and news of recruiting minors in armed conflicts have had their toll on the children of Yemen and who instead of playing with toys now prefer weapons, war games, and military uniforms.
In the capital Sana'a, children are hardly seen playing with regular toys as guns took precedence and war became their favorite game. In the southwestern city of Taez, children have actually invented their own primitive guns which shoot bullets and produce noises that terrorize people.
The most striking part of the story also happened in Taez where one of the schools held a ceremony for students with highest grades. In the ceremony, attended by officials and public figures from the education sector, students were rewarded for their efforts with toy weapons.
"My son was given a Kalashnikov while his colleagues were given pistols, bombs, and other types of weapons," Abdullah Abdul Hamid, father of one of the students, told Al Arabiya.
"This is scary and portends a bleak future for our children."
The increasing popularity of toy weapons was paralleled with their increased availability in all children's stores especially during public holidays when sales are at their peak.
"The profit I get from toy weapons is much more than what I get from anything else," Mohammed Sultan, owner of a toy shop in the capital Sana'a, told Al Arabiya.
"Kids love buying them all year round."
During holidays, children no longer like to wear adult clothes like suits and ties or tribal Arab costumes as they used to in the past. Instead, they are now interested in wearing military uniform which they choose according to the rank and the army unit they pretend to belong to.
Naji Dubwan, a socialist, said that the lack of monitoring on the part of Yemeni authorities is the main reason behind the prevalence of the phenomenon.
"Shop owners are taking advantage of the government's passivity to sell toy weapons to children and neither parents nor mayors of villages are doing anything about it," he told Al Arabiya.
Dubwan explained that engaging in war games has a negative impact on the children because it makes them believe that violence is the solution to any problem.
"The general atmosphere has made things worse. There are ongoing armed conflicts that made the scene of war quite normal for many children and that made you see children standing by military barriers rather than attending the morning queue at school."
In an attempt to monitor the import of children's toys, the Yemeni General Association for Standards and Meteorology at the Sana'a International Airport banned three cargos carrying 65 boxes of toys seen as dangerous for children from being accessed into the country.
"The cargo contained crystal beads that can get bigger till they reach the size of a ball if a fluid is poured on them," said association manager Mohsen Shaker.
Shaker explained that these beads are dangerous because they can cause death especially that kids are prone to swallowing them.
"I call upon all Yemenis to take part in monitoring the types of toys that invade the Yemeni market in order to protect our children from their dangers."

Abbi Overfelt
RED SPRINGS — The U.S. Senate recently passed a resolution that designated April 18 as National Lineman Appreciation Day.
For electrical workers in the town of Red Springs, it was anything but a holiday.
Derrick Edge, the town's Electrical supervisor, and his crew clocked in at the regular time, and went to work. They didn't stop until Friday's sun peeked over the horizon.
Being on call comes with the job. And for linemen, the hardest part of the year is coming up — hot weather, and hurricane season.
"It seems like the times when they have to do the most work is when the conditions are worst," said Walter White, spokesman for Lumbee River Electric Membership Cooperation.
"Linemen are true public servants," said Perry Cummings, interim CEO for Lumbee River EMC. "They work every day in potentially hazardous conditions, oftentimes during extreme weather like hurricanes and ice storms, to keep the lights on for the rest of us."
The cooperation has a "mutual aid" system established with other agencies, so even if no hurricane hits here, Tony Oxendine's crew might have to go to a hard-hit region — as it did in 2005, when they helped to restore power to Katrina-ravaged areas.
But Oxendine, a foreman who recently marked his 21st anniversary with the cooperation, will point out that every job is a dangerous one.
"You're dealing with 7,200 volts," he said. "It will kill you, or put you in the burn center."
It's the danger of the job that Oxendine says forges a bond between the members of a crew — a linemen has to know that in an emergency, the others have his back, and that they can count on support when an accident that knocks out a line hits close to home.
In the April 18 case, the town was working to fix damage caused by a piece of farm equipment, but workers could have arrived at the scene to find a relative or friend behind the wheel of a car that wrapped itself around an electrical pole.
"It's real hard to go right to sleep after something that," Oxendine said. "But you have to get up in the morning and go to work like nothing ever happened."
Those mornings begin with "tailgate meetings," to make sure every crew member is up to speed on the latest safety measures, and has their equipment at the ready — to include hard hats, rubber boots, and and long rubber gloves that hook on the upper back like suspenders and are designed to neutralize an electric charge. But when the temperature rises above 80 degrees, the very things designed to protect the crew become a pressure cooker.
Men doing work in the "bucket," at least 40 feet above the ground, must be lowered every 15 minutes or risk heat exhaustion. And when their feet hit the dirt, they pull their gloves off, turn them upside down, and release a river of sweat.
Safety remains of utmost importance to the men whom Oxendine says have a bond forged by danger. And competitions like the one held Monday, at a substation at the intersection of Old Lowery and Mt. Tabor Church roads, help to teach linemen how to rescue one of their own if they get shocked or otherwise stuck near the top.
They are designed to prevent accidents like the 10-foot fall the broke O.J. Oxendine's arm.
O.J., who is set to retire in May, signed on 44 years ago, when there was no bucket to raise workers to the top of a pole. His fall could have been much worse, as could have the burn that happened when he fell into a shallow ditch and his arm brushed against a newly welded piece of metal.
"He fell right in there," said Melvin Rachels, a foreman on the job where O.J. could be found on Friday. "All I heard was a couple of grunts, and now he's got a real nice tattoo."
Rachels said that the job has been made safer by new technology — but also more complicated. For some electrical work, he said, a laptop must be plugged in to the top of the pole.
"Used to be, all a lineman had to do was know how to climb," he said. "Now there's a lot more to it than climbing poles."
A quick shake of O.J.'s head put a rest to any speculation as to whether or not he will use his skills learned on the job once he hangs up his hard hat, and just as quick came the answer for what he will do.
"Hunt and fish," he said.

Jan 18, 20130What an UNORGINAL idea!! Take an old idea from a horror movie, shoot it in black and white, make it boring and you have "Frankenweenie" Stay way from this movie!
Feb 28, 20130a black and white animation? WTF? b/c they wanted it to be noir? i'm sure children appreciate that. stupid movie, waste of time from a one trick pony of a director.
Feb 2, 20134Definitely a film for your pre-teen, nothing in it for adults, in fact, the signature line in it "Sometimes adults don't know what they're talking about" is what kids suspected all along. I feel sorry for all the parents whose young kid now wants to bring their dead pet(s) back to life with lots of electricity.
Mar 9, 20130Several counts of animal cruelty, malformed-looking characters and a storyline that is unsuitable for kids yet "designed" for them regardless makes Frankenweenie a terrible movie, one that never should have seen the light of day. Shooting it in black and white doesn't help and the voice-acting feels unnatural. I'm kind of surprised Disney put its name under it.
80Very sweet, very funny, really quite touching and exquisitely handmade, by a film lover with humour and a heart, for a like-minded audience.
60It's a likable film, though not a sensational development in Tim Burton's career.
88Frankenweenie is a love story between a boy and his dog. It is also a beautifully crafted homage to classic horror films, a study of grief and a commentary on the mysteries of science and those who narrow-mindedly fear its advances.

Huge Interest in London 2012 Paralympic Games Tickets
Sessions in several sports were oversubscribed for the first time in Paralympics history during the window to apply for tickets, which has closed.
Ballots will be held for sessions in track cycling, swimming and the final rounds of wheelchair rugby and wheelchair tennis at next year's Games.
London 2012 chairman Sebastian Coe told the BBC:
"We have a head-start with Paralympic sport in Britain."
The Paralympic Games run from 29 August to 9 September next year.
More than 4,200 athletes, with a variety of disabilities, from 150 nations will take part.
Payment for the tickets will be taken by 31 October, and applicants will find out if they have been successful by 18 November.
Coe added that the appreciation of the Games among British youngsters could not be overstated.
"Look at the extraordinary scenes in Trafalgar Square just a couple of weeks ago when we celebrated Paralympic Day," he said. "Young kids from local schools were getting excited about seeing Ellie Simmonds, Oscar Pistorius, Dame Tanni Grey-Thompson and David Weir.
"The kids really do get it - for them it is excellent sport and the competitors have become household names.
"For young people Paralympic sport is actually an interesting metaphor.
"It is about courage and determination, it is about equality and sometimes it is about overcoming extraordinary setbacks in life.
"But what they also know is that they are watching things that they can't do which is a pretty good way of defining sport really."
BBC athletics commentator Paul Dickenson, who has covered the Games since Atalanta in 1996, said that famous Paralympians had definitely raised the profile of their sports.
"Look at the polls that BBC Sports Personality of the Year has achieved in the last few years where both Ellie and Tanni have reached the last three as sportswomen let alone Paralympic sportswomen," he said.
"The profile that the general public have of these people is much, much higher than it has ever been before.
"And of course at every Paralympic Games I have ever been to, the medal count for the Great Britain team has just got higher and higher.
"We finished second behind China in Beijing and obviously we want to try and achieve that again by the time we get to London.
"There is a feeling that Paralympic sport is a concession made to people with a disability to take part in sport.
"But to be honest if you have ever been to wheelchair rugby you would be utterly amazed at the commitment and entertainment value these sports give."


text: WHATCOM COUNTY, Wash. (Metro) -- Once again, Samish Bay is closed to shellfish harvesting due to high pollution levels. Goskagit.com reports the state Department of Health closed the bay to commercial and recreational shellfish harvest as a precaution June 17, because of high river flows and the associated risk of pollution. The state extended the closure when testing showed high levels of fecal coliform in water samples. This week's closure is just one of more than eight bay closures since March 1. Skagit County Natural Resources Division manager Dan Berentson attributes the high levels of bacteria in the water to runoff from unusually high spring rainfall. Berentson says the closure is a setback for the agencies who launched the Clean Samish Initiative a few months ago. He adds they will just have to work harder and hope they can make progress again. Berentson reminds residents to check their septic systems, keep livestock out of waterways and take extra care when spreading manure. Copyright © 2012 Metro Networks Inc.

Don't pan Ash for pen pain
RIO FERDINAND has sprung to the defence of team-mate and pal Ashley Young following his penalty miss in the Euro 2012 shootout defeat against Italy.
The Manchester United defender said: "I spoke to Ashley after the game and told him how it requires a lot of bottle to go up and take a pen in those circumstances.
"Ashley was disappointed, of course, but it's the people who go missing when they are looking for penalty volunteers who deserve the stick.
"It's very nerve-racking, no doubt about it. I remember in the 2008 Champions League final shootout against Chelsea. I was the next one up to take one and my knees were seriously knocking, I can tell you.
"I would have backed Ashley to put the kick away though — as I would Ashley Cole, who is usually so good at them.
"But I do think Andrea Pirlo's brilliant little chipped pen when the pressure was on unsettled the lads.
"It was so cool in the circumstances and changed the whole dynamic of the shootout.
"I've been there when we've lost in those shootouts and I feel for the lads. It's a horrible way to go out."

Violence and uncertainty in eastern Congo
December 21, 2012
By The IRC
Thousands of people displaced by recent fighting between rebels and the Congolese army have flocked to this makeshift camp on a hardened lava field on the outskirts of Goma. Africa's most active volcano, Nyiragongo, is just a few miles away.

GOMA, Democratic Republic of Congo -
The International Rescue Committee is expanding its emergency response as uncertainty reigns in the violence-wracked North and South Kivu provinces of eastern Democratic Republic of Congo.
Negotiations between rebel forces and the government are stalled, and fears persist that the insurgents will once again capture North Kivu's provincial capital, Goma, and then continue south. There have been reports of rebels in and around the city, as well as several armed groups in and around camps on the outskirts, threatening the safety of tens of thousands of people uprooted by recent fighting.
"There have been numerous attacks in the camps in the last few weeks," says Aisha Bain, the IRC's emergency team leader in Congo. "This sharp increase in military presence raises great concerns for the security of displaced people as well as local communities."

The Court of Appeal took a very heavy handed view of a residential landlord's "minor omission" earlier this month. The landlord was ordered to pay the maximum penalty allowed by law (three times the rental deposit) for not supplying his tenant with full details of the deposit protection scheme he had used.
In the case of Ayannuga v Swindells [2012], the tenant allegedly fell into arrears with his rent and the landlord applied to court to repossess the property. The tenant argued that the possession order could not be granted because the landlord had not fully complied with the legislation on tenancy deposits at the start of the tenancy.
The landlord had taken the deposit and protected it in one of the approved schemes but accepted that he had not given the tenant all the required information about the scheme as required by the Housing (Tenancy Deposits) (Prescribed Information) Order 2007.
The landlord argued that the deposit had been protected, that the tenant knew that it had been protected and knew which scheme it had been protected under. He said that the requirement to provide full details of the scheme was largely a technical one and that the tenant could very easily have found out anything he needed to know from the scheme's administrator.
The judge at the first hearing agreed with the landlord and dismissed the tenant's claim. The judge said that information in the tenancy agreement, coupled with the further information provided by the Landlord during the hearing, was enough to comply with the requirements of the law.
The tenant appealed. In their judgment earlier this month, the Court of Appeal sided with tenant. They said that the requirement to provide information was not a technicality but was of real importance as it told tenants how they could seek to recover their money and how they could dispute deductions using the scheme's arbitration procedure. The Court ordered the landlord to pay the tenant compensation equivalent to three times the value of the deposit. He also forfeited the original deposit. Effectively a penalty of four times the deposit. Plus legal costs.
RentFair says
Whilst of course landlords should comply with the law, the decision to award the maximum penalty does seem unduly harsh. The deposit had been protected and the tenant clearly knew his legal rights; he does not seem to have been put at any disadvantage by not receiving the prescribed information. He could have found out anything he needed to know by contacting the Deposit Scheme itself, or by looking on their website. Or presumably by simply asking the landlord. Allowing tenants who don't pay rent to benefit financially in this way surely sets a dangerous precedent.
Yes, of course the law should be upheld. But was there any need to come down on the landlord like a ton of bricks? Had the landlord simply kept the deposit himself he is likely to have come off no worse. It seems that landlords – like lawyers, journalists and estate agents - are fair game.

UPDATE, March 8, 2:30 p.m.: The Seattle Times is now reporting that Troy Hennum has resigned from his job as softball coach at Roosevelt High.
Original story:
A former coach at Kirkland's Lake Washington High, who also coaches a select team in Bothell and has coached in the Edmonds School District, has been put on leave as Roosevelt High softball coach for allegedly using team members to find him dates, the Seattle Times reports.
Troy Hennum was not rehired as coach of the Lake Washington softball team team after the Lake Washington School District investigated him last year for questionable texts to a team member. See an earlier Kirkland Patch story about that here.
Hennum, 25, was recently put on unpaid leave by Roosevelt High just days after being hired as basketball coach -- hired despite the earlier investigation at Lake Washington.
The Times story said Hennum sent members of the Roosevelt softball team to take photos of "cute girls" and get their phone numbers for him. It quotes a woman who worked at a local sporting goods store who was approached by a group of giggling girls on a mission to do that. The woman communicated by text with Hennum, but never dated him after finding the approach creepy.
The Times report the Seattle Public Schools put him on leave just six days after hiring him as the Roosevelt softball coach.
According to the Lake Washington district's investigative report, Hennum texted a team member last March during a stay in Wenatchee for a tournament. Hennum said he was attempting to help a student through a difficult time on a team issue, and regretted sending the text. The report said the investigation began after a complaint from another high school coach. The district found no cause for disciplinary action. But Lake Washington Athletic Director George Crowder told Patch after the investigation that Hennum would not be rehired as coach.
Hennum did not return calls and emails to the Times about this latest suspension. Patch has also sent him an email and will update this story if he replies.
The Edmonds School District website lists Hennum as a boys basketball coach for the 2012-13 season, apparently at Brier Terrace Middle School in Brier. His LinkedIn profile indicates that he works as a "Primary/Secondary Education Professional" for the Edmonds and Shoreline school districts. The Times story noted that he coaches a select team in Bothell.
Here is that story: http://seattletimes.com/html/localnews/2020510800_softballcoachxml.html.

January 13, 2012
Syracuse NY- The Syracuse Silver Knights were unable to capitalize on a late possession, losing to the Milwaukee Wave 15-13 in front of 2,437 at the War Memorial on Friday.
Syracuse opened the scoring early and had a 4-0 lead five minutes into the game. Nelson Santana opened the scoring with an unassisted goal, and was followed moments later when Andriy Budnyy found the net on Ryan Pierce's cross.
The Silver Knights were able to keep up with the defending champion Wave throughout the night, going two for two on power plays. The Silver Knights' leading scorers both found the net on the night, with Slavisa Ubiparipovic (42 pts.) scoring halfway through the second quarter; Jeff Hughes (37 pts.) scored twice, once on each side of halftime.
Tough goalkeeping by Marcel Feenstra kept the Silver Knights out of goal in the waning minutes as they took several shots from the three-point line to try and equalize the game to take it to overtime.
Milwaukee's team chemistry was present as six different Wave players scored the team's seven goals with Matt Stewart's final goal giving the Wave a three-point lead with four minutes to play.
The Silver Knights plan to bounce back Sunday night, January 15, with another home game against division rival Norfolk SharX. The game begins at 4:00 PM and can be seen live on MISLLiveSoccer.com.

I get energized everytime I make Raw Energy Bars at home. I have tried several recipes and flavors before; but, this Chocolate, Cashew, and Almond flavor is currently my favorite! It's made from scratch using raw ingredients, such as Medjool dates, cashew, almond, cocoa, and coconut. You will be amazed with the end result. Not only are these bars good for you, they also taste great! So, if you are into raw energy bars, then you may want to try this recipe. If possible, please send me your feedback as well. Have a great weekend.
Raw Energy Bars~Chocolate, Cashew, And Almond
2 Cups (300g) Moist Medjool Dates, pitted and chopped
2 Cups (280g) Raw Cashew Nuts
½ Cup (60g) Raw Almond (without skin)
¾ Cup (75g) Cocoa Powder
A Pinch Of Sea Salt
½ Cup (40g) Unsweetened Shredded Coconuts
2 Tbsp Vanilla Extract
2 to 3 Tbsp Cold Water
Equipment: Food Processor
11 ½ x 4 ½ inches (29 x 12 cm) Loaf pan, lined with aluminum foil
Combine chopped dates, cashews, almonds, cocoa powder, and sea salt in a food processor. Pulse and process all the ingredients together until the texture is coarse. Then add the shredded coconut, a quick pulse, and add the vanilla extract, a little water at a time until it reaches a dry but moist dough consistency. Scrape the dough mixture into the lined pan, press evenly with a rubber spatula, and chill for about an hour before serving.

Thanks for sharing the recipe. Those bars are very expensive at the store.
Pam - AnonymousMay 14, 2011 at 11:56 AM
great recipe. i think it'd also be good to mix in some vegan protein powder or spirullina for an extra health boost! bookmarked this with my cookmarked.com account!
ReplyDelete I just made these and they are AMAZING! I don't have access or the funds for medjool dates, so i just used the ones i could find (as long as they had no added sugar)and soaked them for an hour to plump them up. I also used dark cocoa powder because thats all i ever have on hand, and added a tablespoon of agave to sweeten it a litte. DELISH! I cut them up into 8 bars and wrapped them up and threw them in the fridge. Now i have pre workout snacks for the whole week! Thanks! Next time i'm going to use less cocoa since I use dark and mix in some chia and hemp seeds at the end. Thanks for the great recipe! I'll be making this weekly.

i made something similar tonight with 1 cup almonds, 1 cup dates (any kind), 4 T special dark cocoa, 1 t vanilla extract. soo tasty. i can't stop eating them. going to try your recipe next.

so so tasty!! i have just started and raw food diet and was getting VERY bored of plain, single food. but these are AMAZING!!!
and the possibilities are endless... thank you for getting me excited and inspired :)

8 Best Moments From Chris Christie's GOP Convention Speech (VIDEO)
After Ann Romney spoke of love, the New Jersey governor changed the subject to respect. From his mom's advice to some tough talk on leadership and polls, the best of Chris Christie's keynote speech to the RNC.
New Jersey's governor found himself in a room full of emotional people Tuesday after Ann Romney delivered a heartwarming speech to the Republican National Convention in Tampa. But he plowed through his address anyway, attacking Democrats and the Obama administration with the bravado that has come to define him—and he threw in a few touches of warmth and humanity to round out the keynote.
'A New Jersey Republican?'
Christie opened his speech the same way Barack Obama started his now-famous 2004 speech to the DNC: "This stage and this moment are very improbable for me," Christie said. But then the New Jersey governor took a different tone and cracked a joke instead of discussing how he embodied the American Dream. "A New Jersey Republican?" he joked—what are the chances?
'I Am Her Son'
Christie spoke passionately about his late mother, who "spoke the truth bluntly, directly, and without much varnish." "I am," he said, before pausing, "her son." Christie's daughters also got giddy when he mentioned them, which was adorable.
Respect > Love
The best advice Christie's mother ever gave him, he said, was that in life you sometimes have to choose between love and respect—and that he should choose respect. "Love without respect was always fleeting," he said his mother told him, but "respect could grow into real and lasting love." Christie then lambasted "our leaders today"—ahem, President Obama—who "have become paralyzed by [a] desire to be loved."
What Matters Is What We Get Done
The least appreciated line of the night: "It doesn't matter how we got here; there's enough blame to go around. (Pause) What matters is what we do now." But Christie didn't give it enough oomph, so the crowd wasn't sure if it was their turn to make noise. He made up for it on the next applause line: "It's possible to work together, achieve principled compromise, and get results for the people who gave us these jobs in the first place!" The crowd loved it, further proof that it matters not only what you say but how you say it.
I Wear My Sunglasses at Night … and Indoors?
After Christie bellowed that "Washington is out of excuses!" the camera cut to what seemed to be a young couple in the crowd: a good-looking brunette and a sweaty guy trying to be cool by wearing sunglasses on his head. Please, sir, tell us how you scored your hot date to the convention.
'Real Leaders Change Polls'
The real "line of the speech" award goes to this attack on Obama, the most direct and sound-bite worthy of them all: "You see, Mr. President," Christie said, looking, on cue, directly into the camera, "real leaders don't follow polls; real leaders change polls!"
Masters of Our Own Domain! (Er, Destiny)
"We have never been victims of destiny," Christie charged, "we have always been masters of our own." The phrase "masters of our own" of course brings to mind the great Seinfeld episode "The Contest," but the real reason we're showing you this clip is because a woman in the audience has the best—seriously, the best—golden elephant belt buckle ever.
A Guaranteed Standing Ovation
To close out the night, Christie asked the audience to stand up before he was finished speaking. That way, we suppose, he ensured that he received a standing ovation. Which, of course, warrants another Seinfeld reference …

Cwmbran killer is jailed again after knocking out ex-girlfriend
11:20am Monday 25th February 2013 in News
A MAN jailed for manslaughter in 2009, was locked up again after punching his ex-girlfriend unconscious.
Defence barrister David Leathley told Cardiff Crown Court that Daniel Lynch, 28, has been "haunted and bedevilled' after a single blow by him caused the death of his ex-girlfriend's dad Gary Middleton on New Year's Eve 2008.
In light of that, Recorder of Cardiff Eleri Rees called it extraordinary he was in court again on a violence charge.
She said: "You pleaded guilty to manslaughter, so should know your own strength and the fatal impact it can have."
Lynch, now of Longacre, Fairwater, who is six feet tall and 17 stone pleaded guilty to assault occasioning actual bodily harm on another exgirlfriend, 5ft 6in Nicola Hewitt.
The court was shown CCTV footage from Cwmbran Shopping at 12.40am on December 20 last year, which showed Lynch pushed Ms Hewitt hard against a wall, and gripped her face, squeezing his hands around her neck.
She tried to slap him, but Lynch then pushed her head back against a glass shop.
Prosecutor Jonathan Rees said Lynch delivered a powerful left hook to the jawand she slumped to the floor, unconscious.
The footage showed Lynch help Ms Hewitt up, before the argument continued and he swung another hook to her head, knocking her to the ground again.
Two people then tried to intervene, but they walked away after Lynch ran menacingly at them. Ms Hewitt tried to groggily run off, but Lynch caught up with her. Police arrived and arrested him.
Mr Rees said Ms Hewitt suffered two lumps on her forehead, one on the crown of her head, and soreness on her shoulder and jaw.
In a victim impact statement, she said she accepted she was drunk and had no recollection of the incident.
Mr Leathley said they had been out drinking when an argument broke out because Lynch wanted to go home and Ms Hewitt wanted to stay out, with "things exploding".
He added: "Their relationship was at times volatile and they bring out the worst in each other."
Recorder of Cardiff Eleri Rees sentenced Lynch to 34 weeks in prison, of which he must serve half. Thirty-two weeks were for the assault occasioning actual bodily harm and two weeks consecutively for failing to surrender.
Manslaughter conviction
WE REPORTED in December 2009 how Lynch, then of Clyde Street, Risca, was jailed for three-and-a-half years for the manslaughter of Gary Middleton.
Cardiff Crown Court heard that Lynch was living with father-of-three Mr Middleton's eldest daughter Sarah, when they began arguing on New Year's Eve 2008.
Mr Middleton was called and turned up at 2am to the house on Tan-y-Bryn in fancy dress after he had been at a party.
A number of arguments took place with youths getting involved, before a single punch by Lynch caused the victim to fall back, hitting his head on a kerb.
He died in hospital two months later from injuries sustained.

Your inconsiderate behavior has shocked the family when seeing the picture of Mr Middleton caused the family a great deal of distress reliving that horrendous incident!
Yes publish the story shaming this animal who should be serving a life sentence for what he did and should not be out in the community... but think of the surviving relatives that may be involved as it has brought back a lot of extremely bad memories!
All it takes is a phonecall/visit to pre-warn them!

Artist's Statement
"The experience of making art has great value for all students, whether or not they continue on in the arts as a profession. I construct my studio art courses so that students will acquire new perspectives from which to see and understand the world around them. In my courses I try to promote visual intelligence and creativity, which are values increasingly important for liberally educated persons. At the same time, my courses convey the rigor and dedication that serious art making requires. Above all, students learn by doing -- by being fully engaged in the process of making art. I believe it is in the struggle and the fun of making something that really matters that the passions and insights of the creative process are best revealed."

Trademark rock 'n rants from Ted Nugent CLIFTON PARK -- Having recently played his 6,000th live show, at age 59, one of rock's original wild men, guitarist Ted Nugent, brought his Wango Tango to Northern Lights Wednesday and there was never a dull moment. He's written books ("God, Guns & Rock n' Roll" and "Kill It and Grill It") had a reality show ("Surviving Nugent: the Ted Commandments"), is on the NRA board of directors and has sold millions of records.
And Nugent has his own line of beef jerky called Gonzo Meat Biltong.
A man of strong opinion, Nugent's overheated rhetoric has frequently put him in the middle of controversy, something he seems to wallow in. Wednesday night was no exception.
In Clifton Park, still in possession of his trademark long locks and Gibson Byrdland guitar, a spry looking Nugent wore a cowboy hat when he took the stage screaming. He dove into a bombastic take on "Star Spangled Banner" albeit without the nuance of the Hendrix version.
And it was loud.
Nugent brought along a formidable band featuring former Dokken drummer Mick Brown and bassist Greg Smith, and it certainly sounded like much more than three people.
Old favorite "Wango Tango" was almost primitive in its simplicity. Nugent offered a blazing solo, and he was just getting warmed up. "Uncle Ted reporting for duty!" he screamed and hit the machine gun lick of "Stormtroopin'." In the same vein, "Dog Eat Dog" was as subtle as a plane crash.
His guitar work was simply exceptional. His technique, tone and inventiveness unparalleled. The only down side was when he talked. He felt the need to imply one of the presidential candidates wasn't "American enough" to be president. Later he shared "If I hear the words 'animal' and 'rights' in the same sentence, I'm gonna kill 200 more things!" The clincher was at the end of the show, when he came out brandishing what appeared to be automatic weapons, yelling "Freedom!" as he held them high.
Oh, good.
Soon the wicked "Weekend Warriors" and slide powered "Love Grenade" turned up the heat, but the real wild card was a biting cover of "Soul Man." A "song for my hunting buddies," "Fred Bear" was a bit hollow and aimless, but that was soon forgot as the signature lick of "Cat Scratch Fever" came out of the wall of amplifiers, and the jam-packed house went nuts.
Nugent rocked, and played his behind off. Now if we could only get him to shut up.
Surviving Nugent indeed. David Malachowski is a local freelance writer from Woodstock and a regular contributor to the Times Union.
When: 8:30 p.m. Wednesday
Where: Northern Lights, Route 146, Clifton Park
Length: Nugent played two hours
The crowd: Wall to wall middle-aged rockers
Highlights: Nugent's "Stormtroopin'," "Wango Tango," "Cat Scratch Fever"

Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)
Gout Specialists Seek to Improve Care for Veterans With Painful Condition
Once called the "disease of kings" because of its association with consumption of rich food and alcohol, gout actually affects far more than royalty. Three million Americans suffer from the painful affliction, and the VHA treats a disproportionate share of those, since gout is more common in older men and post-menopausal women, especially those who use alcohol. Still, quality indicators for treating gout have been available less than 10 years and only more recently has the VA begun looking at how those best practices could be applied in its system.
Psychiatric Issues in HCV-Infected Veterans Must Be Managed With Underlying Disease
The high rate of mental health conditions not only can make it difficult for HCV-infected veterans to manage their own illnesses. Those psychiatric issues also can be barriers to interferon treatment and liver transplants. In response, VA resource centers are employing a multi-disciplinary approach to HCV disease management.
New Self-Assessment Tool Helps Physicians Monitor HIV Medication Adherence
Lack of treatment adherence is one of the biggest difficulties for health providers trying to manage HIV patients. Now, a new computerized assessment tool being rolled out by the VHA helps identify patients who are not taking their drugs as well as reasons for noncompliance.
Once Used to Keep Women from Top Ranks, Menopause Now Managed Within VA, Military Health Systems
Menopause once was a barrier to women reaching the top ranks of the military because of concerns it could cause "irrational decisions." Those attitudes have changed, with more than 200,000 women in active duty and more than 50 of them serving as generals and admirals. To better serve their needs, military medicine and VA are taking a close look at women's health services, including menopause, as the female cohort grows older.
